This call will be recorded. Yeah, so we kind of had a little technical difficulty, no big deal. But yeah, basically to end the conversation about the apples, yes, I think that the the crowd interaction and things that that we get out of out of or that I've gotten out of that bit have helped me a lot to kind of point me in the direction of like the 30 or 35 that I really need to know to make it work. But yeah, I guess since you're asking about the writing process in general, uh most most of the things are things that have actually happened to me or things that I've seen or things that I've heard of. Um I I generally don't sit down and just write a bit like that. It's something that's happened. Like uh a couple days ago, I was door dashing and somebody pooped in the elevator when I was in it.
SPEAKER_01What the hell?
SPEAKER_00Yeah, and so like I have that. Um it was it was insane. And then uh also too, those I parked like super. Do you ever park like really far out at like a grocery store or a retail store so that nobody parks next to you? Okay, so I did that and somebody parked next to me, and it was like some crazy Russian lady that was trying to sell me chocolate, and the truck was like brand new, washed, waxed, everything. It had the sticker, like the car dealership sticker still on it, and that that like page that breaks down the price, and she was smoking in it, uh, trying to sell me chocolate. And I'm like, somewhere there's a dealership that has a fake ID, and someone's test driving a truck they're never gonna get back. Like, sure, like, and so I I've always told my wife, I was like, there's so much crazy stuff that I've seen, and that happens to me specifically, that I for Christmas I want a body cam. Like, I would love to be able to post and show the actual moment that this happened. Um, but I just don't have one, so I can't. And uh, but yeah, that's what those meta glasses are for now. You know what? Glasses, even sunglasses, they they they mess with my eyes. Oh, okay. It it makes me feel nauseous when I have something over my eyes. Like, even like 3D glasses, I can't do it. It'll make me sick.
SPEAKER_01So you'll be walking around with one of those axion body cams, though.
SPEAKER_00Like the ones they have at Walmart. You see the Walmart ones they wear around their necks now?
SPEAKER_01No, I don't uh that that's like a necklace now?
SPEAKER_00Yeah, the Walmart employees, specifically all the ones at the door or the security ones, or the ones that work at the customer service, all of them wear neck worn, like necklace body cams now that have audio. Oh yeah. So sick, dude. And they don't even turn them off when they go pee-pee. Um, but yeah, Shaddy, we freaking we we blew up the call recording. We did so good. This has been a freaking blast, dude. I would love to have you back. I feel like there's still a million more questions I could ask you. Um, but yeah, I think I think we're gonna cut it here. But Shaddy, dude, thank you so much for coming on and giving me some of your time, dude. I really appreciate you.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, no problem. Thank you for having me, Dave. Always a pleasure to talk uh in the car, outside the car, at shows, and in passing.
