We bounce from local shoutouts and grumpy friendship therapy into a surprise wedding reveal that somehow turns into a full-on debate about money, work, and what the modern world is doing to our brains. We keep it honest on weight loss, AI, healthcare, and holiday consumerism, then wrap by airing the kind of petty everyday stuff everyone argues about but rarely says out loud.
• local shoutouts and small town election talk
• skipping social plans, overstimulation, and needing alone time
• the “party” that is actually a wedding, plus the ring reveal
• Ozempic and GLP-1 weight loss shots, cost, skepticism, and the 80/20 rule
• cockfighting families, weird traditions, and the stories kids grow up with
• gas prices, inflation, and why everything downstream gets pricier
• road construction frustration, cyclist safety, and declining build quality
• AI in local government as a way to cut ego and red tape
• corporate layoffs, shareholder incentives, and automation anxiety
• healthcare anger, fairness, and who pays
• cascarones, litter, and Easter turning into a gift arms race
Come buy a car from Old G Motors. 2309 East Main Street, Uvaldi, Texas. Right across from Billy Bob's hamburgers. Come see me. Give me a shout.

SPEAKER_01I had a joke. I was hoping I was hoping I was hoping to use this on a woman I dated, but it never happened. But I wanted to say, uh, you know, gay men have the longest penises. And I wanted her to say, well, then you must be the straightest man alive. Wouldn't that be a great comeback?
SPEAKER_00I mean, I guess so. Oh God. This sounds like it really played out in your mind. It really did.
SPEAKER_01I was like, I hope one day that's gonna happen, and I'm gonna laugh.
SPEAKER_00So you said that your last uh girlfriend, you're in a relationship for seven years. Really? I just can't believe you were in that long. But basically the whole time I was with butches, you were in a relationship.
SPEAKER_01Um it was a good time.
SPEAKER_00A great time. So one sixth of your life you've been in a relationship.
SPEAKER_01Uh six times seven is forty-two. Yeah. Yeah. It's fine. I don't care about anything anymore.
SPEAKER_00One sixth of your life you've well, how long were you with your wife? So uh I'm I'm a third, more than a third, 40%.
SPEAKER_01Have you either proposed or married every girlfriend you've ever had? No. I was about to dunk on you if you said yes. No, no, no. That's good. Uh yeah, seven years. Um, I don't know. I'm ready to go. I think the other way. I'm gonna go homosexual.
SPEAKER_00Go gay. It might be good for the show. Shout out to the show. Well, we could probably say more stuff. What were we gonna say? Fag I mean you can, I can't say it, but yeah, you can.
SPEAKER_01You can say anything. Yeah. No, uh, I don't know. I'm trying to lose weight. I I've been saying that for 30 years.
SPEAKER_00Well, if you got AIDS, it would probably help finally.
SPEAKER_01So that would help if you were everyone's on this Ozempic shit or the those the shot. It works, dude. That come people I know have seen them like, fuck, you're skinny. Yeah, I've seen them too.
SPEAKER_00You thinking about it? It didn't work for me. I tried it. You did I tried it for like seven weeks, like uh seven weeks. I think it's come a long way since then. I don't know. I maybe I tried it longer, I tried it longer than I'll tell you what I tried. I tried it. I tried it like more than a thousand dollars worth, and it wasn't doing anything, and I said, I'm out. I'm out, I'm out.
SPEAKER_01That's how much it costs.
SPEAKER_00Well, it's it's like it was like three or four hundred bucks a month, and I tried it for a thousand dollars worth of tries, and that's like having a baby or something, and I'd not lost any weight, and I said, I'm I'm out. I'm out. I think it's cheaper now.
SPEAKER_01I think it's like six dollars a shot. And uh, I don't know, dude. It sounds like it's bad.
SPEAKER_00It sounds bad.
SPEAKER_01Um it's like this caveman nutrition. People I saw a ton of people in there. Shout out to the caveman, but like, should we be taking all these like concentrated supplements? Is that okay?
SPEAKER_00Man, I just think that uh give it to me straight, bud. I just think you gotta be more more active. I you know what I heard this week? What I heard uh some sage advice from uh from a lawyer friend of mine. And he said that he I said, Man, you look like you lost a lot of weight, you're in good shape. What's what's going on? I said, I'm doing the 80-20. Oh 80% good, 20% bad. Like if I want to drink um drink margaritas and eat Mexican food, that's fine. Then the I know the next 80% of what I gotta do is gotta count counteract that. They can hold themselves and everything.
SPEAKER_01That sounds hard.
SPEAKER_00But uh yeah, I I think I can ref reframe uh to that. But you don't need to lose weight, you're like optimal right now.
SPEAKER_01You're like a perfect athlete.
SPEAKER_00I don't know. I could I could lose a little. What like 25? I wouldn't mind losing 20 or 25 pounds. That would be pretty awesome. Yeah, but you'd still walk around like the fucking alien from men in black.
SPEAKER_01That's true. That's just me though.
SPEAKER_00That's who I am as a person.
SPEAKER_01But you would hey, but you would probably feel better.
SPEAKER_00Do you get a lot of sleep? I probably would. I get ample amount of sleep. I sleep well, yes. Yes. I did take a sleeping pill Saturday night just because I'm kind of like In Kunkin? I got over I over-socialized.
SPEAKER_01Oh. Especially now in your uh your uh attitude towards people. Yeah. I bet you were overstimulated.
SPEAKER_00My my party started at two, but really I kind of interacted with people like all day, and then at two, but that's kind of like overload, and then the party was like set to end at six, and then people like kept hanging out, but like at five, everyone was laughing. They're like, You're so ready for us to fucking leave. Oh my god. And then like the people who are really my friends that were there, like the close friends, were like, I'm never leaving, motherfucker. I know you're ready for us to leave. I'm never leaving. And it became a running joke to everyone about just how annoyed I was that no one was leaving. You're pissed off. I wouldn't say pissed off. I was not I want to be somewhere by myself. I wanted to be annoying someone as much as they were annoying me. And I I don't like it when the shoes on the other foot and I'm not the annoyed. That is you, you know. I like to be the head annoyer. That's funny. So they turned it on to return.
SPEAKER_01Oh my god, you must have been so mad. No, I wasn't mad. Not mad, but it doesn't mean like these motherfuckers. Yeah. Thinking they're all cool.
SPEAKER_00I was like forced gump. I probably drank about 15 of those non-alcoholic beers just trying to see social.

Ozempic Talk And The 80/20 Rule
SPEAKER_00I was like thinking about cockfighter families. Like if you like the ones in Batesville. If you go to now, I have a friend from uh Odessa. Oh, yeah, and he's always like posting pictures like with all his grandkids, and he's got them at like a cockfighting. Really?
SPEAKER_01That's illegal.
SPEAKER_00He's in like New Mexico, and it's still illegal there, but they let you go, like you can publicize it all the way up to the cockfighting. Like, so they just go over the pretense of like we're we're we're rooster breeders, and it's really it's really on the gray line or whatever. That sounds pretty black gray. But he's but his whole family are like they're loading up in an expedition and driving like hundreds of miles every weekend to do cockfighter stuff. That sounds fun. And I'm thinking, I'm like, man, those kids are gonna know some shit. Like those kids are gonna be like eighth grade and someone's gonna be talking to them, and they're like, well, at the cockfight. It's like that their whole point of everything they know is gonna be at the cockfight too. Do you know how to sharpen a gaff? I just figure if your kid is getting educated at cockfight, he's probably gonna like outwater burger most other kids. Hell yeah, dude. Hell yeah. That sounds fun too. And if you're if you're an American cockfighter kid that's going across the border with your cocks to fight, that's illegal. Like you know, like if you know how to like smuggle your roosters across the river to go into a cockfighting derby, yeah, and then you come back and go to school like at Utopia or whatever. Yeah, you're probably gonna be fucking better than average.
SPEAKER_01There's some people in uh when I went to school in Uvaldi that uh they their families did that. Yeah. They wore like the Letterman jacket.
SPEAKER_00I always wanna smell like I want to go to the slasher cup in the Philippines.

That video, man, it looks like uh it looks fun in that big old stadium. It does, it looks amazing. There's a guy who's working in my car, he's like, Should I buy these roosters? I'm like, Why are they so small? He's like, They're they're miniature roosters, they're like as big as this. And I was like, No, that's a waste of money. He goes, That's a fucking waste of money and put it in my car. Like, okay, dude.
SPEAKER_00So the roosters are a miniature that the eggs have half the cholesterol.
SPEAKER_01He's like, they're cute, right?
SPEAKER_00I'm like, I guess they're fucking roosters. I don't know, dude. You can sell a miniature everything to someone. Like, every time I turn around, someone's got like a smaller Australian Shepherd. It's like, this is a mini, mini Australian shepherd. How much are they? I don't know. $8,000. Oh, I want to stick a broomstick up its ass and mop the floor with it. That's what it looks like to me. Yeah. It's a little mini thing, Barker Yapper.

And it's really hard for teachers to get increases in pay. I said, and where he goes to school in Brackettville, yeah, a large majority of those teachers commute from the U Valley area. So they're driving 45 miles uh to 60 miles one way. So let's just call it a good average hundred miles and then getting beat up by those kids. Hundred miles a day that they're they're commuting to go back and forth. Well, this huge 30,

SPEAKER_02Like, yeah, I should have worn it.
SPEAKER_00When somebody asked me at the deal on Saturday why you didn't come, I said you don't own a shirt without a hole in it. No, I do have a couple dresses. That is true. I was like, you don't really have any shirts without a hole in it and only basketball shorts. I love my baskets. My Amazon basic basketball shorts.
SPEAKER_01They're so cheap. Ten doll for three pairs. Who asked you that? Tell me now. Somebody, somebody asked me. Your dad's gonna be so upset when he can't buy crack time.

SPEAKER_00No, you're just in a bad mood. I'm just in a bad mood. Uh let me see. What about this communist manifesto?
SPEAKER_01I don't know. Somebody's talking about the communist manifesto.
SPEAKER_00Is there like multiple of them, or is there just one? I think it's where do you get this? I think it's like uh what's the Hitler thing? Mine Kong? Yeah, it's like that. You just find it on Amazon or whatever. Just one of them is it's like the same one, everyone gets the same one, it's just but you gotta get that one.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, I don't like comedy. What's in it? They just tell you how to be a communist, I guess. But I'm like, why would I want to read it? And I don't even like the idea of it. I just like feel like everyone's a thief, and that's gonna put like everyone like in hyperdrive to steal shit.
SPEAKER_00Yeah. Right. Well, it all of a sudden the currency goes from how much money you have or influence you have to how well you can manipulate others.
SPEAKER_02Yeah.
SPEAKER_00Because there's still a hierarchy, there's no communist system where there's not a hierarchy. There has to be like a a leader, it's just or like a group of leaders. They should change the name from communism to we keep score differently. Right. Because it's still gonna be. Guess what? Most people, the most people that are not satisfied, you're not gonna be satisfied under communism either, because you're gonna get chinglaid. Chinglaid. Yes, sir.
SPEAKER_01Is that a word? You always say that. I'm gonna ask my mom. Yeah, ask her. She's gonna be like, no, he doesn't know what he's talking about. I probably don't.
SPEAKER_00But you know what I'm talking about. Yeah, I do. Do you want to be chinglaid or not chinglaid? I absolutely do not want to be chinglaid. There you go. It's a word.
SPEAKER_01You watch baseball?

SPEAKER_01Really? Yeah. It's fun, dude. You see them hit the ball and then they go chase them.
SPEAKER_00If if baseball was time lapse, I might enjoy it more. What do you mean, like goes faster? Yeah.

SPEAKER_01And so then uh we're reviewing this.
SPEAKER_00Like, okay, what's the review? So but hopefully soon, because everything's coming along fairly well. Dude, they're building a lot of shit out here. Looks nice. Yeah. And then I have a uh variance hearing on uh some of my construction out front. What's that variance? Um, well, it's not it doesn't have anything to do with communism, you know, like when you buy a piece of property and then you think that you can develop it or change it as you wish with inside the perimeter of your property. It it doesn't work that way because you have to objectively adhere to laws and rules that have been adopted over the years by the cities or counties or states.
SPEAKER_01Right. But you want to do it the right way. Yeah. That's funny.
SPEAKER_00Yeah. So I don't know. I mean, whatever. I'm gonna get it get it figured out.
SPEAKER_01We'll get it figured out, bud. I'm gonna sell a car. Yeah, I'm ready. Did you find um secretary or your personal assistant? I did. You did? I did.
SPEAKER_00Who is it? I don't know. I'm not gonna tell you. Oh, okay. Yeah, you don't know. Is it a guy? You don't know. Okay. Will you tell me later? I guess. You don't know him.

SPEAKER_00Yeah.
SPEAKER_01Who the fuck is this person? Um what's up, dude? We're just getting real, brother.
SPEAKER_00Road construction workers and cyclists. I hate cyclists.
SPEAKER_01I know everybody hates them, but I I hate them the most.
SPEAKER_00I don't hate road construction workers, no, but I do hate road construction.
SPEAKER_01I don't like their work ethic. Uh, because it takes so long. I see them all the time just sitting around. And that's another people say that, but they do just sit around.
unknownYeah.
SPEAKER_00Don't they? There it really doesn't seem I've seen road work with a sense of urgency, and I've seen road work that with that makes no sense at all. And I've seen more that makes no sense at all than I have seen with a sense of urgency. Yeah. But I have seen these army of fuckers come down here before and like re chip seal highway 90 and they do a hundred miles in a week. That's true. They're in and out of here. It's a pain in the dick while they're doing it, but that but it's over in a week. It's like they come in from like East Texas and they'll get it all done. What is that?
SPEAKER_01I don't know. We get some people from here, they're like, we're not gonna do this.
SPEAKER_00But like if you get something done going on an interstate, it's like it's not getting done. It's it's not a it's not a priority. It's not a priority.
SPEAKER_01I know they're doing 35 in San Antonio and they build this exit for uh Eisenhower, and and my truck, I have to like go up a ramp, and it's tiny, it's like as big as like this, it's like as wide. Like, who the fuck built that? Yeah, it's insane.
SPEAKER_00I don't really know who builds a lot of stuff. Me neither. I feel like we're not building things as well as things that were built a century ago. That concerns me.
SPEAKER_01I think it's just streamlined more so people get their money faster. But did all I was thinking about this. Did all this you know how everything was great in the 50s?
SPEAKER_03Mm-hmm.
SPEAKER_01Did that all lead to us having shitty lives now? So if we wouldn't have had that, we would have had a better life now?
SPEAKER_00Uh I think I'm not saying I'm that we have a shitty life by any means. All I do is look at my phone, it's pretty shitty. I am just saying that the quality of things that we get are not like the the 50s.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, no, it's necessary or before the 40s or the 30s or I think like the 40s is like the beginning of the awesome times.
SPEAKER_00So
Politics Chaos And Conspiracy Headlines
SPEAKER_00uh just the product that you got. Of course, it took the average worker a long time to make something. That's true. It did. Yeah. There was more put there was less mass-produced crap. I think there were less options.
SPEAKER_01And I don't like it now because there's nowhere, there's like not another place in the world where I can be like, we need to be more like them. Like they suck as bad as we do, or they're just as bad. Like China?

Um, but I'll tell you what, I I did not feel like I overeat. They give you just enough food to like you don't know if you're still hungry or not. But it was good. You're like, I just got a pepper cheesesteak and a tea and a side of zucchini. And it was that like fried zucchini. Not fried, but like seared.

SPEAKER_00It's kind of weird. Does that feel like it's like a stereotype that you're a Mexican with a chihuahua? Everyone has chihuahuas. We used to have a lot of chihuahuas. Exactly. We had three. My God. When I say we, my my parents, my stepdad loved it. He was just like chihuahuas. Does he have dogs now? Have two horrible, annoying dogs. What are they? Labradoodles or some shit.

It's the guy who's out there. Oh, okay. Guy who watches over stuff. But I was saying about road construction workers and cyclists, I will tell you. They got fucking nerves of a snake handler. They're stupid. These guys out there that are like painting the side of the road standing 14 inches from death for like what 28 years old. They don't even look up. They don't even you can sometimes I do a little experiment when I drive by them and I'm just like lay on the horn. They don't even flinch.
SPEAKER_01I was one time I did see a guy almost jump off a bridge when I did that, but there was a guy working on the pole, like uh on um, I think it was Tyler. And uh I got super close to him with my truck, and the other guy's away like stop, get over. And I was like, Ah, he's fine, I'm so far away. And I got kind of close, and he almost he I think he wanted to get in the truck and chase me down. I bet he was pissed. I I stayed away. But these cyclists, dude, they'll uh they're stupid. There's like a whole group of them. Have you seen the one in San Antonio? They go downtown and like going around. They're gonna get killed.
SPEAKER_00They are gonna get killed. They wouldn't be on the trails, but they like to ride on the roads. There was a bunch of them this uh this past like Friday on their riding to Con can. Like all of them they had like construction vests on, yeah. Riding the Con Can. Were you annoyed? Uh there wasn't that much traffic, so I just kind of blew past them and really bother me.
SPEAKER_01But there's when I go to El Paso, there's a whole group that like rides in the mornings. I'm like, these guys, why do they have these bikes? And then the women show up and they're like there's shorts up their ass. I'm like, oh okay, that's why they're here. That's why they do it.
SPEAKER_00Then they sell those clothes to Japan and that's where they make all their money.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, that's how you tie it all in.
SPEAKER_00That's how. Did you not know about that? I mean, I always read weird, twisted stuff about it. I think I've seen a video on it. Yeah. Did you know 200 idiots stood in line outside of the academy in Odessa, Texas to get their pictures taken? With the Billy Bob Thornton's son from Landman. That goofy skinny kid? Yeah. Oh my god. Yeah, fucking the mad magazine kid looking son of a bitch. He does look like that guy. Dude. What why doesn't like whenever I read like hear something horrible, like a plane crashed with like all these brilliant doctors that were gonna cure cancer? I go, why? But there's never like a line of people waiting to see the third fourth tier character of layman or mowed down by a drunk driver.
Breakfast Tacos And A Brutal Roast

SPEAKER_00Uh I used to like uh the wings at Hooters, but they're not they're not they're shutting them down, dude. They're obviously drive by a bunch that are shut down. Felt and I went to one probably six months ago, and it was just like, this is bad. Bad. It's really, it's just a bunch of uh single dads with their kids in there, and the dads are drinking beer and their kids are coloring. It's depressing, actually. That was a guy who used to it used to be a family restaurant. It wasn't.

Like, that's weird to go there with your dad and just get drunk. Just bro it up, broing it up. What's that game? He's in Puerto Rico, he's a fucking piece of shit. I hate that guy. What did you what do you and your dad do? Uh nothing. He annoyed, he bought he doesn't annoy me. He um he like blocks me out. Blocks you out. He's like, Are you here? Uh whatever.
SPEAKER_00Did y'all cook a brisket in the weekend?
SPEAKER_01No, my dad did, yeah. You didn't help? He had to buy the prime. You know why? Because everyone else bought everything else.

SPEAKER_01Yeah, but they had to. I think they're trying to get them back in the petrodollar. Oh. They want to get rid of all that brick shit. That makes sense. Mm-hmm. I think we should align more. This is my idea. We align more with China and Russia. Fuck these European nations.
SPEAKER_00I mean, I feel like this country's fucking us just as well as we like to say the Russians and the Chinese are screwing their own people. So maybe we are doing that.
SPEAKER_01I just think Europeans are too like gay. And the Russians and Chinese are more masculine. I mean I'm going to Europe next month. Why? What? And then do then the slasher cup after that?
SPEAKER_00No. What are you doing in Europe? I got some work to do over there. In Europe. I'm looking at a thing. Oh. A widget. And I'm going over there.

SPEAKER_00You know what I think's hilarious? There's a bunch of people out there that have OnlyFans and they've basically like broadcasted to the world like I am a whore. Or I'm I am I'm willing to be sexualized, even if like a whore is not the right word. I'm willing to be sexualized to subjective. I'm willing to put myself out there for your dollar. And then they they've done that, and their career earnings are like $87.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, they get they get like the rewards I get from my my check-in account, like 87 cents, I think, every two months.
SPEAKER_00Yeah.
SPEAKER_01There's a lot of people that do it. But how do how do you get on that high tier?
SPEAKER_00I'm I assume it's like anything, like a little bit of luck and a little bit of hard work. You gotta work your ass off, yes. Literally. Uh, but if you're if if you're just not if you're unsuccessful at that, but you still have the like because of course the first people to know are gonna be like your peer, like someone's gonna find you. Yeah, they were like tell that works. My uncle finds your arch nemesis, yeah, or your weird uncle is gonna find it.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, I'm gonna find it.
SPEAKER_00And then like forever, you're gonna be the girl with the the you're gonna be the girl with the pornos. Yeah, but people don't think that far ahead.
SPEAKER_01No, they do it's all like instant gratification. That's it. I saw a video of a woman she turned uh turned 18 on and then she had her phone out. Her mom had the phone, she's like, time to sign up for OnlyFans, and they're all like made a big party and she signed up. Wow. Isn't that insane? That's insane. I don't know what this world's coming to. I need more money. Oh, what about Tiger Woods? Um, he flipped his car and he said uh he's on the phone with Trump. Is that what he said? Yeah, he's like on the phone with the president.

There was a there was a bunch of charges they didn't get him for the big ones. I think maybe he's out now, or he's getting close.
SPEAKER_01Uh like two years or something and get out on good behavior. They got him on some bullshit too. It wasn't even like that bad.
unknownDiddy.
SPEAKER_00It's tough out there.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, dude.

SPEAKER_00Yeah.
SPEAKER_01Like, dude, if you can't make it in San Marcus, Texas, how how are you gonna make it in Waco?
SPEAKER_00Can't make it anywhere.
SPEAKER_01Can't make it. Yeah. They don't have them on. I think Ojos Locos is the new one, though. I always see those popping off.
SPEAKER_00Those are jamming when I drive by those.
SPEAKER_01The one in Houston, there's like a couple I've drive by their that parking lot's packed full of.
SPEAKER_00We should open one Biojos Locos. And it's just homeless, just homeless bitches in there. Yeah.
SPEAKER_01Viejos locos? No.
SPEAKER_00Biojos.
SPEAKER_01Oh, fiojos?
SPEAKER_00Yeah. Pinche Viojos Locos. And then we just get a bunch of them women with lice. Oh, I thought it was a lice. I don't know.
SPEAKER_01I have to ask my mom about that one.
SPEAKER_00Your mom, she's a what? Wise, wise woman. She knows a lot of stuff. She knows a lot of Spanish. I impressed Chat GPT so much with a prompt.
SPEAKER_01You're on there all the time?
SPEAKER_00That gave me two answers. I said to make uh that meme that I shared of the for the last episode we did of the boxing ring with the ICP clown posse. Oh, yeah. Okay. Mass and the two cobras fighting. And Chat GPT came back to me and said, Wow, what a creative and interesting image you've described. Here's two choices. Tell us which one best describes what you're looking for. And both I had to tell him you nailed it on both. Yeah. And so we love to hear that. Did you use both of them or just that one? No, I just used one. No, that only saw one. Yeah. You wowed it. It made me laugh. It's like you're so batshit fucking crazy. We're gonna give you two choices.
SPEAKER_01What did you put in there? You like put me boxing ring, cobras.
SPEAKER_00Uh I think if I get uh fired, I want to be a uh AI prompter.
SPEAKER_01Oh why would you ever get fired?
SPEAKER_00I don't know.
SPEAKER_01Prompter. You think they're doing that? It's a scam, some Indian guy.
SPEAKER_00Um, no, I just I like to prompter the machine. Yeah, okay. Yeah.
SPEAKER_01Did you see that? Uh now I'm on the anti uh who's the governor? Abbott? I hate him now too. Well, what do you do now? He was uh saying something he was like talking about how all these Indians in Texas are awesome and we should like respect them. It's like what the fuck? What are you doing? They got some stem cells for him. Uh they probably do, dude.
SPEAKER_00I was like, I gotta respect these motherfuckers. I'm not gonna do that. Oh. From everything I don't go to Frisco, Texas. I've been there once like 20 years ago. I don't want to go to Frisco, Texas. No, it's like tucked away in some little enclave. I'm not it sounds like a lot of traffic to get there. But what I see on the internet I got these fucking new temples. Yeah, it's it's like New Delhi. If they ask Craig Herman about that, he lives there.
SPEAKER_01Lives up there, I thought Clint. So, yeah, and then they're all from like a town called Hyperbad or Hyper Hyper or something. They're all from that same little town in India.
SPEAKER_00Really?
SPEAKER_01And they've all been here since like 2004.
SPEAKER_00The the the Wow The Mass Exodus from Hyperbad?
SPEAKER_01Because it's hyperbad. Damn, it's bad. We need to go to India. I'd love to go just to visit. I you know that Slum Dog Millionaire was a great movie. It was cool. I like the way they did that. I thought it was a really good movie. And I like the title. I'm like, this is very apt for these people. Yeah. Slumdogs. There's a few million millionaires in there. You like that movie? When was Abbott saying this about the Indians? He said it earlier. I'll find it. Well, we gotta we gotta respect everybody, bud. Not respect like treat them equally, respect them like bow down to them, I think you meant.
SPEAKER_00What if we you know everyone's like the jury's out on this AI, like what are we doing with AI? What's AI gonna do for us? What is like we need to give it a job. And I don't think that there's any better job for AI than to manage like a city. Yes. So like you'll still elect your officials and they will prompt the AI, they will give the pathway. They will they will tell it what the goal is, what what's important to us, what we're voting on. Texas will be a land for the Indian community, a land for Africa. That's terrible audio. You interrupted my rant with that dog shit. Now I don't want to leave. Get the fuck out of here, I'm so annoyed. I don't even know what I was talking about.
SPEAKER_01Now I'm so you were talking about how AI should govern a town.
SPEAKER_00Go ahead. The departments, the trash pickup schedules, um, the assessments, the I thought that's where we're gonna use it for. I know it it's maybe it's not there yet. Because I feel like a lot of people that you have in the administration side of cities, there's a lot of people doing that work. And cities are always like, oh, we're broke. Yeah. You know what I mean? Or we're having money for the budget, or we we don't have money for the budget. And essentially, like I assume, like a city, they don't really compete with private industry as far as pay goes. I mean, like our a mayor here in Uvaldi makes m not basically $500 a year or something like that. It's it's not a paying position.
SPEAKER_01It's a pittance.
SPEAKER_00And uh a council member doesn't really get paid. Those are it's basically service volunteer. That's how it should be service, yeah. But then when you get into the management roles and the uh administrators and the um people that are clerically running these departments and things like that, um you're they're they're making like 150. I I don't uh maybe the highest,
Gas Prices And Everyday Inflation
SPEAKER_00but it goes down quickly. I just think there's a huge opportunity to use AI and and have AI delegate a lot of those decisions. Yeah. We need an AI city because I'd love it.
SPEAKER_01I I think that we could it all needs to start with some some somewhere small, and that's how it grows.
SPEAKER_00From my experience, when you interface with a city, you usually begin your communication with probably the lowest rung on the ladder at the admin level.
SPEAKER_01Yeah.
SPEAKER_00And that person usually thinks they're the most important person in the city.
SPEAKER_01It's a bureaucracy you're talking about.
SPEAKER_00And so there's immediately an impasse um where now you're you're dealing with somebody low on the totem pole that's creating hurdles for somebody who's just trying to live in the city. Right. And I think AI could do that subjectively without having an ego or thinking that I finally have I finally am important. You mean objective? Let me be important. Yeah. AI is never going to do that. No, no. It's never gonna be like, oh, like I have little man syndrome, but on a professional level.
SPEAKER_01Right. Have you noticed this when uh like there's a there's like a boss like a vote company and the secretary like protects the boss? Yeah, you know that like sort of um um I don't know what it's calling it, but you know what I'm talking about.
SPEAKER_00Well, yeah, and also there's a lot of times where the lowest paid person is doing a lot of the work and running a lot of the show. So the the I think there's a huge disconnect from the top and the bottom.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, it could be rethought out. Yeah, it could be streamlined so fast with AI.
SPEAKER_00Yeah.
SPEAKER_01But people must be able to do that. And AI can do a lot of the tasks. Yeah. Maybe not now, but maybe in the maybe that's where we're going.
SPEAKER_00Maybe where we're going. Do you see the that like parody commercial? It was like energy to run our energy. It's basically like talking about like data centers and stuff, or you know, we need all this energy to run it. Yeah, and but AI is displacing everyone and everyone's gonna be out of work, and then it just showed this whole town of like really in shape people that are just riding their what are what Pelotons or Pelotons or whatever. Wasn't it like uh powering uh data center?
SPEAKER_01It was like Sam Altman and Elon, like in 2008.
SPEAKER_00It was like Sam Altman, Elon Musk, and they were fat as fuck, but then everybody else was yeah. I mean, that's a good idea. Did you see have you seen all the news going around how uh Oracle has laid off 30,000 people, but apparently they're gonna lay off maybe as many as 300,000?
SPEAKER_01They could.
SPEAKER_00So that they can curb their um they can put that money invested into data centers. But last year they were profitable just under $13 billion, which essentially said that they could have paid all those people the rest of their life. Um they got rid of them?
SPEAKER_02Yeah, that's funny.
SPEAKER_00I believe that they could no, they could have paid all those people the rest they could pay everyone they have the rest of their life, um, and still like have more than half of what they made in profit in profit.
SPEAKER_01But we can't do that because that's but they have shareholder responsibility, right? Yeah, that's how that works. It's not it doesn't seem fair, but it is. I think we have a social we have like a social, we have like corporate socialism. I think that's true.
SPEAKER_00So I don't like that. Things should be allowed to fail. What would be an interesting is to revalue the shareholders. So if I have a company with a million shares and you own 500,000 of them, well, I don't think about you 500,000 times, I think about you one time. So if I've got 30,000 employees, but I only have 12,000 shareholders that own all of my shares, well now those shareholders only get 12,000 consideration compared to these 30. I'm trying to just I'm doing a poor job of explaining it. You really are. You don't really know. But it's just when BlackRock and Vanguard are the shareholders and we're adhering to this baseless I pay into the van Vanguard.
SPEAKER_01They manage my one of my funds. Part of the machine.
SPEAKER_00That's hilarious. And they're
Dropped Charges And The Bureaucracy Grind
SPEAKER_00gonna automate truck driving, and then you're gonna have nothing, and you're gonna be living on you're gonna still be paying them a management fee and living off of what they manage for you.
SPEAKER_01I don't know. I think are they gonna get really rid of truck driving?
unknownYeah.
SPEAKER_00When? As soon as they can. Well, yeah, but how long is that gonna be? 20 years? Five? Dude, maybe five years. But maybe maybe five.
SPEAKER_01Maybe.
SPEAKER_00I mean you it all depends on what AI does. I can defend five as well as you can defend twenty.
SPEAKER_01Okay, but but do you think that AI I've heard AI is a scam. I mean it might be, but I can literally like what are we doing using it now? Like, why is it so awesome? Because you can make a fucking picture on your phone. That's all I use it for.
SPEAKER_00I make a picture. I use Google. I'm I organize a lot of things that I'm working on and ask. It's crazy because I feel like I can ask a question and get a contrarian, if I ask the question right, I can get uh like a more honest feedback and intelligent feedback sometimes than I can, like if I were just to stop someone. If I stop someone in my office, like I have to explain to them like the whole time. And if they get off track or they misunderstand what I say, then I'm completely missed the point. But I feel like when I'm communicating with the machine, yeah, I'm what I'm putting into it, I'm getting back an answer that I'm like, oh, that's well thought out, or that's interesting. Yeah, I don't know.
SPEAKER_01Exactly. I don't know. What is that on your ring? Is that like a little dime?
SPEAKER_00Because you're a dime piece. Uh that is a Roman coin.
SPEAKER_01Oh my god. You're such a nerd.
SPEAKER_00The Republic must come first.
SPEAKER_01Where did you find that? I have one too. I got it off eBay.
SPEAKER_00Antique show.
SPEAKER_01And she put that in there? No, it was already made. Oh, I thought you I thought she made that first.
SPEAKER_00It's made in Turkey.
SPEAKER_01Really? Yeah. My God. You should get a whole thing of rings on your I should. Because you own a car a lot. You guys aren't wearing a cowboy hat too. Uh whenever you go pissing. Anyways, AI's gonna put you out of work. It's not. Uh, whenever you go piss when you're in the bathroom, public bathroom, and you're either shitting or pissing, do you flush before you shit so they can't hear you?
SPEAKER_00Or you just let it rip? I I don't I don't. I just like wait till I'm home or whatever. Oh, you know. If I really have to use a public bathroom that bad, I don't care who hears me. Really? I want them to hear, I want them to clear out.
SPEAKER_01That's what I'm talking about. I mask it. I'm a mask.
SPEAKER_00Yeah.
SPEAKER_01That makes me gay.
SPEAKER_00Yeah.
SPEAKER_01I've always wanted to know. I'm like, am I the only one who does this? I guess I am.
SPEAKER_00What's your favorite dirty canned recipe? Like, I saw a recipe the other day that somebody opened a can of whoremeal tamales, poured them into a pan, covered it with Wolfbrand chill chili, and then covered it with cheese and put it in the oven and like made enchilada casserole. And I was like, I shouldn't be.
SPEAKER_01I would probably try that. I want to do Big Mama wiener casserole.
SPEAKER_00Ugh.
SPEAKER_01That sounds amazing. I'll invite Bito since he likes them too.
SPEAKER_00Like I like a green bean casserole. That's kind of like a dirty canned recipe. Yeah, but they're just onions, right? People used to eat like salmon cakes all the time, you know. Oh, yeah. I like those. Canned salmon. You don't like that?
SPEAKER_01Mingo used to love the anchovies. Yeah. Uh I tried the anchovies. They're fucking disgusting.
SPEAKER_00Shout out the green beans at Ebbett's Barbecue. Best green beans. I know they're just out of a can with like heavy seasoning, but I've gotten where I I go to Ebbett's at least once a week.
SPEAKER_01I never go.
SPEAKER_00I look, I really like it. What do you get there? Like, I understand no one's gonna go stand in line at an hour to eat at Ebbett's Barbecue, but I'm gonna go stand in line for five minutes to eat there because it's consistent. What do you get? I get a two meat. How much is it? Uh a two meat a two meat with two sides and a drink. 27. No, it's 2340. It's not like that bad. It's it's um, you know, when when Rosemary's got her brisket special. Of course, you only get one meat there, but I'll go eat that. But I will say when I'm done, sometimes at Evetts, there's a few bites of food left. Like I'm full. Like really?
SPEAKER_01Yeah. The two meat plate? Yep. I've never I've never been inside of it. Really? I've never been inside of Evetts. It it always I'm gonna drive by, I'm like, oh yeah, because I go to H E B.
SPEAKER_00That's the most mild thing I've ever heard. Is it really? Yeah.
SPEAKER_01That you've never been inside of Evits.
SPEAKER_00That you haven't.
SPEAKER_01Never.
SPEAKER_00Especially as much time as you spent at the golf course. You never when you were a kid, you never walked over and got a barbecue sandwich.
SPEAKER_01Never mom sent you with a bunch of trepas. It's like people used to have the uh at Rexhaw, they used to have their um what is that? Club sandwich. Yeah, but they had like a uh a tab. Oh, yeah. Whenever I found out that happened, I'm like, man, these guys got it made.
SPEAKER_00Rich.
SPEAKER_01Rich.
SPEAKER_00Rich. And they were rich. I got my grandparents had a tab at Rexall. They did, and uh I overused. It and I knew I was overusing it. I would say I was abusing it. And I got to where I was signing fake names on it, and I started signing Willie Edwards' name on it. And one day my grandpa was like, What the fuck is Willie Edwards charging sandwiches in my account? And I was like, You ought to get that son of a bitch. Did he ever get after him? No, probably. I think they figured out it was me because my grandmother went down there and they're like, It's Steven. I was like, damn, busted.
SPEAKER_01I remember Willie. We used to play golf, and he uh he's like, get in my cart and go pick up these golf balls. And I was driving his cart and the power line, the poles that hold the the lines that hold the poles were like come down like in an angle, and I wasn't paying attention and I ran right into it, ripped the top off. You you're the one who destroyed his golf. Yeah, proud day. And then I told uh I had Dre Duty with his wife about 10 years after that, and I told her that story, and she was like, That sounds you did that. And I was like, Yeah, she's like, I hate that.
SPEAKER_00And I was like, I'm sorry, I thought it was funny. So you can like watch com commercials, you can watch sitcoms, you can watch all kinds of shows. You know what? Everybody's pro. Everybody thinks it's like a ha
Cyclists, Road Work, And Build Quality
SPEAKER_00ha good time, exciting. Chicks flashing. Chicks flashing. You go to Mardi Gras, they're like, Oh, show your tits. Showing your boobs. Like, yeah, that's uh like everybody's like, oh, you flash. You see all these Instagrams of like girls that like flash construction workers or whatever. But it's like the the girl's gone wild, but the idea of it is like that's an acceptable thing. Like, oh, your day was made because some chick showed her boobs, or at least it gave you a chuckle, you know, not your day made, but like just something you talk about around the kitchen table. Yeah, something you could go to. You'll never guess what happened to me. Around the kitchen table. If you run down the road and some guy helicopters his hog out the window, you're gonna be offended. You're going to jail. There, that is you want a quality, you want a quality, then you're gonna have a bunch of men running around shaking their hogs at people. That's what I think.
SPEAKER_01Has it ever happened to you?
SPEAKER_00God don't no, but I knew a girl at Texas Tech that some guy ran up to her in uh like Walmart and they do the flash room, yeah. Like pulled his pulled his deal out and like twirled it around a little bit and ran away. Wait a fuck traumatized.
SPEAKER_01How do you get off on that? That sounds so weird. So weird like to put someone in that such awkward like situation. Is that where they get off on? Yeah, I guess so. Um there was I was driving a truck, I was driving my truck and I was in downtown Houston, and I parked next to the store, and this guy came around and he pissed right next to it, and his whipped his dick out. I was like, oh shit. And then another guy went right there and pissed right, and then another guy, the same spot. I'm like, what is they're like dogs? Yeah, it was insane.
SPEAKER_00It was like last year. Did you uh did you see the post where the guy was like, I hit my breaking point, and he was like, I went to uh the hospital with my son, and we have insurance, but we had to wait in the emergency room uh for six hours, and it cost me my whole deductible of three thousand dollars. And he was like, There was a family of illegals. How do I know they were illegal? Because they answered the hospital, asked them and they had the conversation and admitted to it, and they were all like whoever the family was in a wreck, like they were all admitted before us, and their cost was zero. Really? He said, If you if you have if you're complaining about your health care in America, I suggest we put ice uh at every hospital this year's.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, I I agree with you. But I'm my advice to him would be like just go in there and don't act like a homeless person and they will treat you for free. Yeah, just do that. They'll treat you for free.
SPEAKER_00We've let this health insurance scam get completely out of control.
SPEAKER_01It's every dude, everything's a scam. These people they go to basic training, they'll go to like join the army, they'll pretend they get hurt and then like at 80% of uh disability for like the rest of their lives. Yeah, shout out to our uh beloved uh armed forces.
Cascarones, Litter, And Easter Consumerism
SPEAKER_00What's up with uh did you see all the people lined up highway 90 selling cascarones? No, were they doing that?
SPEAKER_01I saw them like they're all uh selling the Easter bunnies.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, the pinatas and cascaronis, you saw them all up and down. Yeah, I did. There was literally 14 people spread out, they were squatting under the roof at uh they were even working Easter morning. Yeah, I saw them at AutoZone. They're at AutoZone, they were at townhouse, townhouse was closed, and the guy was like sitting out under the awning out of the rain and like on their porch. Where the fuck did this Cascarón cartel come from? I stopped and bought some cascarons from because everyone wants the easy fucking money.
SPEAKER_01I stopped and bought from them.
SPEAKER_00Oh, you did? And the how much were they? The guy was like a young 18, 19-year-old kid. No sables inglés. I had to speak my rancho Spanish. He's probably embarrassed for you. He wasn't, he was relieved. He was he like he could not fucking wade his, he would not have been able to make a sale his how bad his English was. Uh-huh. Like that's how bad it was. And he was so relieved when I started butchering some fucking Spanish about Cuantos Cuestas and Bolsa the Wells.
SPEAKER_02Cuestas.
SPEAKER_00Quantas cuestas, motherfucker. Quantos huevos en un bolsa? I had to ask him how many cascarones are in there. Let me say. He said, sien. Really? A hundred? And so they're $20 for a hundred cascarones. I would just flip that ticket. Those were those eggs, those chickens must be the most malnourished fucking chickens because half those cascarones broke just by idling in my old dog's truck. Really? Yeah, they just started cracking. Cummins was all humming on them and they cracked all. Your kids are crying. Vale verga. Yeah. Were they colored at least? They were, they're colored and dying. Oh colored. And my son asked me, he goes, he goes, Do you think they made them all? Or they're just buying them really cheap in Mexico? I said, they got slaves in Mexico that made those. Slaves. No, um, I make that part up, but how do they make those? And then what's up with this? And that's all litter, too. I hate cascaronis. I hate them too. It's all fucking litter. It is litter. Thank you. Hallelujah. You're littering. You're littering. That just stays in your in your lawn for like 40 minutes.
SPEAKER_01How about some microplastics, you asshole? You know how they make that paper? I've been to a paper factory. It fucking stinks. It stinks.
SPEAKER_00It stinks.
