SPEAKER_06

Control. Oh man, geez. Yeah, I feel like we were missing two boys to men.

SPEAKER_03

Or in the news if you were in the news.

SPEAKER_05

Oh, if you're in the news and you had uh footage to support it, all the better. Yeah, you need proof.

SPEAKER_03

These are social media creds.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, I dare you.

SPEAKER_03

I dare you for us to discuss it. All right, this is something that happened um just uh a couple weeks ago or less than a couple weeks ago. But do y'all know who the new late night comedian is gonna be?

SPEAKER_05

Oh, no.

SPEAKER_03

It's gonna replace Stephen Colbert? Does anybody know?

SPEAKER_05

Oh, no.

SPEAKER_03

It was just announced because it wasn't just announced because it's as we're airing the same.

SPEAKER_05

But recently I haven't heard, so I have not heard. No, no, okay. I bet it's not Paul Rubens.

SPEAKER_03

No, it's Byron Allen.

SPEAKER_05

Get out of here.

SPEAKER_03

Byron Allen is actually not gonna be a late, it's not gonna be a late night night show or whatever. It's actually gonna be his his his comedy show. Oh, for real?

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, that was like in the 90s, wasn't it?

SPEAKER_03

Uh yeah, well, they've got some more episodes out, and I guess they've been airing them during the day, but they're going to have it at night.

SPEAKER_06

Because there was a joke that I mean, you know, the name of the show is Comics Unleashed, but if you've watched it, there they couldn't be more leashed.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, really? Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_06

So Tanged comic comics.

SPEAKER_03

Well, it's gonna be Comics Unleashed is gonna replace the late show with Time Slot.

SPEAKER_05

Okay, so season. New ones or they're old or they're gonna show old ones. New ones, like new so okay, so that they're getting rid of the talk show format and putting in stand-up.

SPEAKER_03

Well, right it's popular.

SPEAKER_06

I mean, do you think have you ever seen the show? Do you have a sea? Okay, no.

SPEAKER_03

Comics Unleashed is like he interviews them.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, okay, but it's like in a sit, it would at least it was like it was real close to each other, like it almost looks like a podcast without the brakes. It really is.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, that's what it looks like. But I guess it's been going on during the day, like they have them on during the day. Um, and so they're moving it to that slot.

SPEAKER_06

And yeah, so he's what's Colbert gonna do now. I think he's out on his ears.

SPEAKER_03

I don't know what he's doing.

SPEAKER_05

That's a shame. Damn.

SPEAKER_03

But um, I'm sure he knows.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Um, but Byron Allen and he owns the weather channel. Did you know this? The Byron Allen owns the weather channel. Owns the weather channel. I did not and he is uh billionaire, he's like super successful.

SPEAKER_06

Subliminally saying that he controls the weather?

SPEAKER_03

No, well he could. Maybe he shall be. But he owns he owns the weather channel. Like 100% owns the weather channel.

SPEAKER_05

I wonder if you own the weather channel and you own grocery stores, if you could kind of is that conflict of interest. Oh right, right.

SPEAKER_06

You could make people run out and get eggs, bread, and milk by threatening snow. Yeah, that's pretty smart. Yeah, well, yeah.

SPEAKER_03

That's a master plan, take over the world.

SPEAKER_06

And if Chad's thought about it, you know Byron Allen has.

SPEAKER_05

Probably at least five times.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_05

He's acted on it. So he's got the money now.

SPEAKER_03

He started off doing a show called Real People, like back in the 80s. Oh. It was like him and like two other people, and I went and looked it up. And it almost do you remember that TV show, That's Incredible?

SPEAKER_05

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

That's what it reminded me of.

SPEAKER_05

Tiger Woods is on That's Incredible, I believe. He is? I thought he was when he was a little kid.

SPEAKER_03

Like when he was a kid?

SPEAKER_05

Yeah, like uh he was doing putts and things like that.

SPEAKER_03

Is that when his dad was shaking the keys?

SPEAKER_05

Well, yeah, I don't know if he was shaking him right there, but that's about the same time frame.

SPEAKER_03

You know what I'm talking about? His dad was the keys to distract him.

SPEAKER_05

I don't think he did it on the show, but yeah.

SPEAKER_03

I didn't know he was on That's Incredible. I think so. That's crazy.

SPEAKER_06

I could be making Tiger Woods' dad really did push him into being great, you know. There's been several cases where it turns out Lads.

SPEAKER_07

They beat the fire out of them kids and they said get them high notes.

SPEAKER_06

Wow, he's got a movie coming out. Yeah, yeah. You know, I think his nephew is playing him in it, too. So really I'm actually I want to see it. It's his nephew, if I'm not mistaken.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_06

I uh, you know, I have to do it. Yeah, we watched the trailer. Yeah, it looks good.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, it was good. So that was kind of interesting. I don't know. Is that news?

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, good for good for uh Byron. He's yeah, he's been holding it down for a long time, man. Byron Allen.

SPEAKER_03

I mean, he's he's been like still keeping comedy going.

SPEAKER_06

That's awesome.

SPEAKER_03

Executive producer of all kinds of stuff. He behind the scenes, he's like a ton of money.

SPEAKER_06

That's news. So yeah, it's gonna be. And I think it was news that he owns the weather channel. That feels like that feels wrong that somebody should own it, but I guess they have to. Yeah, but we'd be the last guest that he like I don't know.

SPEAKER_03

Right, like a a comic. Comic, right.

SPEAKER_06

It's just do you think somebody owns those dot govs?

SPEAKER_03

All right. I got here's an article.

SPEAKER_06

My bad, man.

SPEAKER_03

What what would make you what would make you burn your socks?

SPEAKER_06

Oh, I mean I probably need to burn a couple already. I could say like maybe for some reason if I had lost a pair of shoes and had to walk into a public bathroom with with like those socks on, then like when when they come off, I mean they you can't wash that out.

SPEAKER_03

If you had to walk into a public bathroom with just your socks, yeah.

SPEAKER_06

Like let's say for some reason, let's say like my options are like I'm gonna walk in here, like let's just say it's maybe flooded with I don't know what. What you know, what whatever could be flooded from a bathroom. Yeah, it could be clean toilet water, could be dirty toilet water. I've like, I've got these Jordans on, or I've got these socks that I'm gonna I'm gonna take those Jordans right off, and I'm gonna go in there with those socks, and then you'll burn those socks later.

SPEAKER_03

No, you said clean toilet water or or dirty toilet water.

SPEAKER_06

Either way.

SPEAKER_03

But here's the thing. Isn't all toilet water dirty?

SPEAKER_05

Well, let me ask you this. Would you let me ask you this?

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, if there's brosic stew on the ground, brown toilet water to drink, or you have clean toilet water, which I'm referring to, which is means it's the water pre-flushing it or pre- I know, but what I'm saying is it isn't all toilet water technically dirty. Well, I mean so the ones in the the one the water in the back of the tank's good, isn't it? Yeah, and that's even like that's even like real good because it hadn't even gotten to it.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, but the tank itself is dirty, so even if it's clean water coming into the tank, it's dirty water. Yeah, but there's different levels, there's different levels of different levels for sure, 100% different levels.

SPEAKER_05

That white water, the the the clear water, is probably on the one dirty, but that brown water is off the charts.

SPEAKER_03

Right, but I'm saying it's never a zero dirty.

SPEAKER_06

I'm thinking that water is as clean as the water that you turn your faucet on and it comes out.

SPEAKER_03

No.

SPEAKER_06

The water that's in the back of the toilet?

SPEAKER_03

No, the water in the back of your toilet is dirty.

SPEAKER_06

If the water in the back of your toilet's dirty, Amber, y'all need to do, y'all need to fix that.

SPEAKER_03

The water in the back of the toilet is a separate issue. Okay. I'm talking about once the water comes into the toilet toilet, it's dirty, automatically dirty.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

Automatically dirty dirty. Yeah, I mean, but it's good to get enough to pee in. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Well, yes.

SPEAKER_01

Of course.

SPEAKER_05

Okay, but here's the thing. Here's the thing. If there is if there is say if that same water in that toilet same water in that bowl had spilled out onto the ground and I walked in my sock on it and I stepped in it versus stepping in the other sock in brown Brunswick water.

SPEAKER_03

Still wash my sock.

SPEAKER_06

Even if this is a yellow water.

SPEAKER_03

Still wash my sock.

SPEAKER_06

Wash? No. Burn.

SPEAKER_03

Or burn.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, the wash. It's not washing out. It's not washing out.

SPEAKER_03

No, I mean, if it's clear toilet water and it flips out into the I'm still washing it.

SPEAKER_05

But still wash it. That's what we're talking about, though.

SPEAKER_03

This is with the side of poop jokes. Okay.

SPEAKER_06

We main course. I don't believe the serious takes yet. This is like this might be serious. This might be the whole main course.

SPEAKER_03

Okay, so here's the deal is that there was This has nothing to do with poop either.

SPEAKER_07

Look.

SPEAKER_03

No, there's a there's a tradition. There's a tradition in Maryland that um they have uh where they burn your socks before um one it's one of the coldest days in in the winter or whatever, before it goes winter. It's kind of like the groundhog.

SPEAKER_06

Do you put them on or something while they're on is that how cold it is?

SPEAKER_03

So you put up burning their sock as like saying, okay, it's now time for summer or whatever. It's like winter's over, we're burning our socks.

SPEAKER_06

Days are getting longer.

SPEAKER_03

Yes.

SPEAKER_06

Okay, but you still wear socks in the summer.

SPEAKER_05

That doesn't make sense.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_05

Well, speaking of socks, the only person at this table that has more socks than anybody is probably Jared.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, I know that's accurate. I probably have more socks than both of you combined.

SPEAKER_03

How many socks do you think you have?

SPEAKER_06

I don't know.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah, but like it's not like it's not like regular, it's not regular socks. It's not like like your traditional tube sock or uh black sock or dress, whatever. It's got like something on it. It's got somebody or something. What are you wearing today?

SPEAKER_06

Uh uh.

SPEAKER_03

Uh-oh. What is it?

SPEAKER_06

SPEAKER_03

Thanos, you gotta put your foot up here.

SPEAKER_06

SPEAKER_01

That's funny.

SPEAKER_06

Thanos from uh from Marvel Comics. He had a little evil dude.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, why is Thanos blue? I thought he was purple.

SPEAKER_06

He he is blue. That's that's what he's wearing. It's like that's what he wears. Oh, he wears a blue suit and the comic book.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, and the TV show or the movies, he's purple, right?

SPEAKER_05

Yeah, this isn't this isn't a movie sock. This is a comic book sock. So speaking of history here, when I first met Jared and we're hanging out, and I'm noticing something, I was like, dude, what's on your what's on your sock? And he lifted it up, and it'd be whatever. It could be Larry Bird, or it could be Jerry Seinfeld or Elvis or whatever. I'm sure you do. Random, random socks. Right. And I'm I'm like, dude, that's really cool. And then his line he would tell me is what? Oh, you tell me, man. Oh, okay. I don't know.

SPEAKER_08

Oh, no, I'm listening to the story like early.

SPEAKER_05

What did he say? No, he would say he would tell me uh in some form or fashion, he says, My sock game is harder than woodpecker lips. That's just true.

SPEAKER_06

I think I did say that. Yeah, yeah. That's just obscilly as say, you know. I know some people, just little country sayings, you know. My dad had a thousand of them.

SPEAKER_03

Right, yeah.

SPEAKER_06

Yep.

SPEAKER_03

Right, nice.

SPEAKER_06

Lady's hotter than the that lady is hotter than a burnt clutch. You know that's a good thing.

SPEAKER_05

That's a good country, wouldn't you? Yeah, it's gonna get worse before it gets better. My dad used to say it to me. I was like, what does that mean? And he's like, you'll find out. We'll figure it out.

SPEAKER_01

That's funny. Okay, so one-arm paper hanger. Yes, yeah.

SPEAKER_03

If I had a if I was a dog and had a tail, I'd be wagging it. What was that? Never mind.

SPEAKER_05

That's really my dad would say uh if a frog had wings on his buttons.

SPEAKER_06

My dad would say if we had some ham and eggs, we could have some ham if we had some eggs.

SPEAKER_03

That's really good. I like that. Okay, so uh burning your socks to say it's winter zone.

SPEAKER_05

SPEAKER_06

Mm-hmm. I like it when he hit his phone. Oh, yeah.

SPEAKER_03

So funny. My favorite, my favorite favorite. Did awful parts. Like the cold opens. My favorite cold open is when uh Michael Scott grills his foot on a George Form grill.

SPEAKER_05

Because he's like had he's wanting to cook bacon. He wanna he wanna want to wake up to the smell of bacon in the morning.

SPEAKER_06

No, my favorite cold open is when he's got the vending machine, and Dwight's like he's like, all this stuff is in there. And he put all this, and he goes, Where's my wallet? And they're like, it looks like it's in there. It's like, hey, 77. He was like, Yeah, I'll buy it for you.

SPEAKER_03

It's so good. So good. Put his own. Okay, so where are my candy bars? Break me off a piece of that Kit Kat Bar. Kit Kat Bar. So what happened recently was there uh I got a quick little video.

SPEAKER_06

Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_00

You can stay in Italy because there was another heist. Twelve tons of Kit Kats have vanished. And Nestle says, what it 400,000 candy bars were stolen after leaving its production site in Italy earlier this week, bound for Poland. The company says the truck carrying them is nowhere to be found.

SPEAKER_08

That's a big deal.

SPEAKER_00

Chocolate bars were said to be distributed throughout Europe. And in a statement, Nestle said, quote, whilst we appreciate the criminals' exceptional taste, the fact remains that cargo theft is an escalating issue for businesses.

SPEAKER_03

So escalators Kit Kat bars, 12,000 kit back cat I can't even talk. Kit Kat bars have been stolen.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah, there you go. Sure. And uh let's see if we can get that. Um yeah. You know what? I always kind of stole it. Like the logo for Nestle, I didn't really pick up on that. Oh, yeah, would you? Okay.

SPEAKER_06

All right. Just a side thing, I read today that or it was on the internet that I was reading it. That the you see there's no hyphen in between Kit Kat? Oh. That I was reading that they said this is you know the Mandela effect. Yeah, I remember it being there. Kit Kat says they've never What? They've never They've never had a hyphen? I've read. What I read could have been wrong. I'm just telling you, I read I did read this today.

SPEAKER_03

I always thought they did.

SPEAKER_06

So did I. I thought I remember seeing a hyphen. I think I even remember seeing it in the chocolate. Wow.

SPEAKER_03

I think the government's doing weird things with our minds. Like there was, and then they're just like, take all the hyphens out.

SPEAKER_05

That's their plan.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_05

Okay. They're worried about those hyphens again. Yeah. Those hyphens.

SPEAKER_07

They're both outrageous. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Right. See, in Florida, they show the hyphens because they still they don't have any property tax. Because we pay property tax, they took out the hyphens.

SPEAKER_06

Do you think these people stole them because of this?

SPEAKER_03

Well, they don't know. I mean, as we air this, they might have figured it out, but 12,000 Kit Kat bars are still missing or were missing. Or shot this.

SPEAKER_05

They accidentally reprinted the OG package and they're like, we can't have that go out. Yeah.

SPEAKER_08

Sink it.

SPEAKER_06

I'm with you. Yeah.

SPEAKER_08

Start the phone. Conspiracy theory.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, that's what the 10,000 are gone because they used an old. You know, like what on your computer when you save like an old that somebody just clicked the wrong one? Yeah. That's the one the government says we can't use it. Yeah, yeah. And they and they lay me off. Hello with 10,000 hyphens.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah, that thing's just printing them out.

unknown

No, what?

SPEAKER_03

It left. Well, I did hear recently that Reese's peanut butter cup, like as of twenty twenty seven, they're going. Back to their original recipe. I wish they would because it is they're not as good they got away from it and they weren't like the milk chocolate wasn't pure milk chocolate.

SPEAKER_06

Even the peanut butter is different. And let me tell you, as a Reese's peanut butter cup eater at from life, like I'll put them in the freezer, refrigerator, and even room temperature, I'll eat these things. I'll eat it melted.

SPEAKER_01

Eat them in a box in a fox.

SPEAKER_06

That's right, Dr. Seuss. I will do both of those. I don't get them as much anymore. I've been getting this Mr. Beast peanut butter thing. And we we we have zero promotion. We're not trying to, I'm just telling you personally. You like them. I get those because it's actual real peanut butter. Like when you bite into it.

SPEAKER_03

I like these.

SPEAKER_06

These these are more like these things that these Mr. Beast is like when you bite into it, like peanut butter is in there. Is running out. You know what I mean? That might be some kind of peanut butter fill. No, I mean I mean like this. I mean, this is like creamy.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, it's like that gum, that chewels gum where you like bite into it and like the search. I think it's shules.

SPEAKER_05

Oh man, I thought it was like where you bite into it, it's like like come with four of them.

SPEAKER_03

Mouthwash comes out of it or something.

SPEAKER_05

Like you I know what you're talking about, but those are called gushers. Gushers had like brake fluid coming out of that, man. Yeah. That's always gross.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, yeah. It's like those bottles, the little wax bottles that you used to get, and you pop them over.

SPEAKER_06

My kids get those still. Really? They love the if I go somewhere and they like those have those, I have to buy those. Really? They love those little waxes. They'll put them in the freezer, then they do stuff with the wax after. Really? I like that.

SPEAKER_01

Tim Hawkins has a great game because he opens it up and drinks. He's like, it's like lighter fluid.

SPEAKER_06

I don't know why they like it. They do, and then they like do stuff with the wax. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, that's funny.

SPEAKER_06

I think you're onto something, Chad. I think I think that those hyphens were printed, and you can't just take the package and because I think they printed it on the cat bar itself.

SPEAKER_05

They sunk that semi or semis.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, because it's printed on the actual bar.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah. Well, it's probably printed on the box too, so that'll get rid of everything.

SPEAKER_06

Interesting.

SPEAKER_03

Interesting.

SPEAKER_06

You're on to something. Definitely news.

SPEAKER_03

I got a little good news. Okay. So I I threw this in here because I was like, you know what? A little good news. Okay. It's good to have a little good news. Um so this uh this pizza guy, his Dan the pizza man. Oh yeah. He went viral because he just went a little bit extra mile. Just a little extra mile.

SPEAKER_05

Somebody had called a little of the mile. Yeah. I've always heard that the um the uh extra, you put extra on the ordinary.

SPEAKER_03

Extra on the ordinary. Well, that was Mr. Dan Simpsons. Um that he was holding a part-time job at Domino's in Boise, Idaho. For 14 years, he's been doing this part-time gig.

SPEAKER_05

Let's go, Dan.

SPEAKER_03

And somebody ordered pizza. The Wilsons ordered pizza. Yeah, Diet Coke, but they were out of Diet Coke, they didn't have any Diet Coke at the at Domino's.

SPEAKER_05

Order a pizza with Diet Coke. Come on, Wilsons.

SPEAKER_03

I know he so he went out of his way, he went to the store, got Diet Coke, okay, and brought it to them. And they were so thankful and so surprised by this that they posted it and it's gone viral. And now they opened up a GoFundMe to tip Dan the pizza man, and he is gathering like ridiculous amounts of tip money to support this.

SPEAKER_05

I really do love that. Because I mean going the extra mile, something like that, and doing it for a diet coke.

SPEAKER_06

Because as you said, you shouldn't even have a diet coke with this pizza. You should not if you're gonna drink a diet coke, you might as well just drink hose water. Yeah.

SPEAKER_05

I you know customer service is not lost on me when you go to places and it's he bought a diet coke, yeah. You can tell Dan was not a Diet Coke purchaser. And so when it happens, when you get like good weight service or something like that, or if you go to a convenience store, someone's just nice to you and and treat you as a person and not just like you're taking up space or you know, your inconvenience is them because they're working and you have to be in their way. But when they're you're treated nice, yeah, my goodness, you're just like, oh, I want to come back again and have a return. I'll return every time. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah. I was just at um Home Depot and I was you know with my dad and we were getting some things and we're checking out, and this one lady uh I said, you know, hey, I hope you're having a nice day. I said happy Easter. And and the one lady was like, You are so nice. Um, and the lady that was working with her, she like had tears in her eyes because somebody had just cussed her out. And she was younger, and the lady that I was talking to was an older lady, and she's like, customers, it's crazy. They just cussed her out.

SPEAKER_05

And so I noticed that she had some Cheetos like in her little cup of pushed it, pushed her down, said big baby.

SPEAKER_03

So I said, Suck it up, suck it up.

SPEAKER_05

So I went back into the make in the real world.

SPEAKER_03

And I actually I'm honest, I actually bought a thing of Kit Katz. You're super nice, and some Cheetos, and I brought them over to them and I said, Hey, I hope your day gets better. And they were like, What? This is so nice. But you can just do like little things. Yeah. I actually gave them the receipt and I said, just in case your manager, here's the receipt. But it's just like a little tiny, but it you can do like little tiny things, and people nowadays are just like, it's like the best thing that's ever happened to them.

SPEAKER_05

That's so true. Like, um, we'll talk about this a little later because I we got our serious takes we do, but but that that dovetails nicely to what we'll talk about later. But uh it's it's just that's cool, you know, doing being nice or going doing something little like that, like you mentioned, it does make a difference.

SPEAKER_06

I got something later too. We'll see. Oh, all right. Yeah, that's cool. Yeah, somebody being nice.

SPEAKER_03

All right, nice. All right, I pulled up some punch lines too. Oh, yeah.

SPEAKER_06

What's the punchline? You got some good ones. I haven't gotten as many uh personally lately. So I think oh, he's saving these jokers, man.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah, yeah, yeah. He hasn't gotten much uh reels for me lately. Yeah, he's gonna he's gonna he's gonna hit me with some hard stuff. Uh so uh I'm excited about this. So um, well, you know, we'll get going with one of them called Mother Goose. I thought it was funny. Uh you you may have seen this one. I think it's been around the block a little bit, like Jenny. Uh J Lo. Oh wow. Is that J Lo from the block? Okay.

SPEAKER_06

She's she's from the block.

SPEAKER_05

No, yeah, not around.

SPEAKER_03

You showed the first part of I wouldn't know, sir. You show the first part of the video, and then we've got to figure out what's going on.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Right. It's a little dabble do you up front. So let's check it out. Let's see what's uh prequel. The prequel. The prequel. Mother goose. I might eat my little uh what's this called? Skinny dip. Skinny dips. Yeah, I'm gonna get one too then. If people are fat, it's not skinny dip, it's called chunky dunk.

SPEAKER_03

Okay. I might have to watch it again.

SPEAKER_06

Clearly, that's a dog and an ear.

SPEAKER_03

You have to watch it again?

SPEAKER_06

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

That is a mongoose, and that is a dog that is up against a wall.

SPEAKER_05

That dog is um not having a good day.

SPEAKER_03

It's Ricky Tiki Tabby right there, going after that dog. Little mongoose. So what's gonna happen? Um I think something's gonna fall on that mongoose. Okay, like out of the blue, something's gonna fall on that mongoose, and that dog's gonna be saved. That old yeller is gonna live one more day.

SPEAKER_06

That dog's about to get wrecked.

SPEAKER_03

That's an egg. They're fighting over the egg. See, that is a detail I noticed, and I bet that's okay fighting over because mongooses like eggs.

SPEAKER_05

Right. And I think that dog was trying was trying to protect the egg. Oh, right? Okay. Okay. She's working for the chickens. Yeah. And so the and the mongoose, like, I want the egg. Man.

SPEAKER_03

And then mongooses are mean.

SPEAKER_05

So this this video has so many different layers, and it's so funny.

SPEAKER_06

Maybe the dog is, you know, Muhammad Alien and maybe he's roping a dope, and he's gonna maybe maybe he's pulling him in. Yeah, as soon as that mongoose gets in there, the dog is all right, my my turn. Yeah. Challenge is this fight just started.

SPEAKER_05

Okay. So I think the rope and dope is gonna work. Okay, he's he's got a lot of energy.

SPEAKER_06

Okay, okay. All right, so maybe it's the other.

SPEAKER_08

Okay, are we ready? Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

Trying to give both of them a yeah.

SPEAKER_05

Uh-oh. Oh.

SPEAKER_07

You want to remind me of? When the incredible Holt grabbed Loki and was But I want you to watch her human.

SPEAKER_05

I want you to watch her fresh eyes again, and I want you to notice not real.

SPEAKER_07

This is. This is so real. It's not real. That goose does moon.

SPEAKER_01

Puss and boots. Like, there's all kinds of characters here. I know. I wish that cat was wearing a hat.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah. Pushing boots. Yeah. Why is it? Now listen.

SPEAKER_05

Listen. The dog was protecting the egg. It's from the goose. The goose is probably like off at the pond, whatever. And then you got what? Yeah. And then you got the what's the opposite of a dog? It's a cat. The cat comes in and is trying to help him out. Chasha cat comes out of nowhere. And then the goo goose comes in. Now, what's funny about this is obviously when the goose is like like smacking the mongoose around, but and he and he croaks at the end. He's like, and he's like flexing on him. But I want you to watch the dog again when the goose comes in and grabs the mongoose. He's like, he can't look at it. He's like too violent for the dog. It's so funny.

SPEAKER_03

Well, if that little egg pops up, like the little character from Puss of Boots, and he's like that.

SPEAKER_06

That goose is the incredible Hulk, man.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

Oh yeah. You remember when he grabs Loki?

SPEAKER_05

Puny God. Yeah, they say Puny God. Ridiculous. Watch it again. Okay, check out the dog. Watch the dog's face.

SPEAKER_03

I'm watching the dog.

SPEAKER_05

Oh man.

SPEAKER_06

Well, that dog is just playing a pro dummy because he needs to be a good one. He pushed the number one again.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, that's okay.

SPEAKER_06

I think that's what that is. That dog knew what he was doing. There you go. He's letting that cat come. I'm watching.

SPEAKER_05

What? Oh. Watch the dog's face. Oh, the humanity. He's gonna look at my oh. He's like, oh.

SPEAKER_07

Like he'd been there before. I messed with this goose last week. Should have me by the tail.

SPEAKER_01

What are we watching? There's man hands on that cat.

SPEAKER_05

This is an AI. No, no, no. This is perfect for the new film coming out Animal Farm.

SPEAKER_01

Oh my goodness.

SPEAKER_05

Alright, so the next one we got is got milk.

SPEAKER_06

Oh, like the old commercial. Yeah. Everybody would drink it and then they'd have a mustache. Mm-hmm. Got milk.

SPEAKER_04

If the cow eats blueberries, could the milk come out purple?

SPEAKER_05

Oh. Could it? If the cow eats blueberries, would the milk come out purple?

SPEAKER_06

I guess if it had enough, I don't I don't really don't know how the milk works. I guess if that's all it had was blueberries, maybe nothing else. I mean, I don't know how the You want to see that again.

SPEAKER_05

Okay. So anyway, so I know if uh though the reason that the faming thing flamingos are pink is because they eat a lot of shrimp.

SPEAKER_03

Right. But they don't if you milk a flamingo, it's not strawberry fruit.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, yeah, because I will say this though, with that same reasoning, though, if you fed a cow a bunch of chocolate, does that mean that it's gonna have chocolate milk? No. Have you fed cow chocolate milk? I'm gonna say no, no baby.

SPEAKER_03

But it will poop out blueberries.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah. Okay. Sure.

SPEAKER_03

I don't know.

SPEAKER_05

I think I think they're on to something. If you watch what makes it funny, I don't think so.

SPEAKER_01

Got milk might be on something.

SPEAKER_04

I don't think it's gonna be. If the cow eats blueberries, could the milk come out purple? You see, milk is composed of 90% water. The rest is made up of lactose, fat, and protein, and this causes its white color. So if a cow eats 39 millimeter bullets, it could become a Kalashnikov automatic.

SPEAKER_07

You know what this is reminded me of, Chad did a couple of weeks back? Was where they strap some dude to a spinning uh like those merry-go-round in front of his face every time he passed.

SPEAKER_05

Zek films, he's actually pretty uh pretty funny. So is he? Yeah, I like it. Make you think.

SPEAKER_02

It's a thinker's thinker, yeah.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah, here's another thinker. This is called yummy.

SPEAKER_08

I gotta prepare myself here.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

Asian sauce.

SPEAKER_05

Yum yum sauce.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, you get it.

SPEAKER_05

Oh, what does he drop? Oh, what is that?

SPEAKER_03

It looks like an ice cream, like oh, is it?

SPEAKER_05

No.

SPEAKER_03

Can I see that again?

SPEAKER_05

Yeah, please. Yeah, again, try it, check it out.

SPEAKER_06

Oh, this right here.

SPEAKER_03

It's like an ice cream, like a like a fudsickle. Oh, is it?

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, like uh you got how many times are you gonna watch this thing?

SPEAKER_03

I'm not.

SPEAKER_06

Okay. I I think it's uh yeah, it's a what do you a coconut popsicle? Oh, like a coconut, yeah, that's a good guess.

SPEAKER_03

Coconut popsicle. Okay, yummy. Well, we'll see what makes it yummy.

SPEAKER_05

We'll see what makes it yummy.

SPEAKER_03

Yummy? I don't know. I have no idea. I couldn't even tell what was happening before.

SPEAKER_05

Well, you gotta watch it and find out.

SPEAKER_03

Okay, here we go.

SPEAKER_05

Yummy.

SPEAKER_03

All right.

SPEAKER_07

Yummy quick is clean. Stop. Oh man. Did you see the one guy like laughing really hard at it? And then it went in his mouth.

SPEAKER_03

What is up with armpits lately? Because the lady with the match lit her armpit on fire.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah, I tapped into a whole different algorithm. You got an armpit. You remember the one he remembered the lady where he kicked her shoe under the uh took off after security candle.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, he kicked her sandwich underneath. It's one of my favorite ones. Yeah, yeah. Oh, that was so gross. Just one more time, Amber. You know you want to see it. Come on.

SPEAKER_01

Not even really dope.

SPEAKER_06

I think it was one of those popsicles. He's been working on the field.

SPEAKER_07

Just see that look that freezes all of me. Like he did not like where that ended. That is good stuff. Yeah, that's good stuff. There you go. All right.

SPEAKER_05

That's pretty gross. I don't like that one.

SPEAKER_03

Probably out of the three.

SPEAKER_05

Which one's your favorite out of the three?

SPEAKER_03

Well, if I had to choose, you're forcing me.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, that mother goose, man.

SPEAKER_03

Maybe the mother goose.

SPEAKER_06

Oh, yeah. That goose tore that mongoose a new one. Right. And the dog's face.

SPEAKER_07

Oh, but that mongoose doesn't think about eggs for a week.

SPEAKER_05

He's probably the next friend. It probably happened with the dog, then the cat, and then now the mongoose. Now they're all three friends. They're subject to the goose.

SPEAKER_06

That mongoose is telling other mongooses, like, we need to quit eating eggs.

SPEAKER_03

And then babe's gonna come in and like it's like the big yeah, it's like a movie that's what we're watching. Yeah, build a web.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah. Oh, okay. Yeah. There you go.

SPEAKER_01

Crazy. All right. Yeah, interesting. Well, nicely done.

SPEAKER_05

For your entertainment, that was awesome. Uh, I love those. That's what's one of my favorite segments. So we're moving on to another segment, and this one's called Serious Takes. All right. So I've got these uh questions I want to pose to the group here. And uh see how we handle these or see what you the your first thoughts when you hear this, okay?

SPEAKER_03

All right.

SPEAKER_05

Okay.

SPEAKER_03

So what are we doing again? What is this like with the like we're doing a podcast? No, I know, but serious takes.

SPEAKER_07

He's gonna follow him.

SPEAKER_05

No. If you can't, you think they will?

SPEAKER_07

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

That's what I was asking.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah. For a friend.

SPEAKER_02

I was asking for a friend.

SPEAKER_05

So what do we do? Oh my goodness. Okay. I think I'm gonna call on that goose here in a second. All right. Um lay some eggs around Amber.

unknown

Wow.

SPEAKER_05

All right. So self-diagnosing everything. Self-diagnosing everything. Meaning, like we live in the age of information, obviously, and you can chat G2P anything, you can Google anything, look everything up, get a YouTube video. Now, we have been guilty of this on several different fronts. Like if we're a car is having trouble, or if um we're wash machine, wash machine, or even something more serious if it's a health issue, like, oh, let me self-diagnose these symptoms. And we, you know, this you need to.

SPEAKER_06

Which in my opinion, once a doc it's what a doctor does.

SPEAKER_05

Right. Right. So what is the when's the line that you stop self-diagnosing and you actually seek an expert? And are we getting to a point with AI and more intelligence that we are the rise of information? Are those specialists gonna go uh away?

SPEAKER_03

I have a couple of takes on this. First take is that you self-diagnose based on wisdom over years of experience. So if you know something's going on and you've experienced that thing before, then you I mean it's like a headache, you're not going to the doctor for a headache or or your ankle, you've rolled your ankle before. Right. So if it's something like that, and if and then if you notice that it's not improving, then that's when you seek professional. But then the other take that I have on this is I recently had a friend that went to the doctor and she was asking the doctor about something, and the doctor like had diagnosed her for a you know, the other part of the visit was fine, but then got to this one part and she said, Well, I've been having trouble with, you know, uh surgery that I had had, and I was having trouble with, you know, this bone or whatever. And the doctor with the family practitioner was just like, Well, have you asked chat GBT? The family practitioner said that. And she was like, What? And she's like, Yeah. And she just got on her phone and typed it in. The doctor typed it in and said, Well, it looks like you're gonna be pretty good. Like just do these kind of stretches and then and my friend stopped going to that.

SPEAKER_06

Jim and I said you're gonna be okay. Yeah. I co-polic. Anything wrong with that? Um, because the only thing about that, like I mean, kudos for that doctor for doing it in front of her. Most doctors go to another room and do it, I think. Yeah, I think I think they're doing that. Maybe not chat GPT, but you know there's been a doctor that's come into a room and gotten a book and gone, geez, what was that? Yeah. And they're looking to figure out what's oh right.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

At least this doctor just did it in front of her, like, look, yeah, this is a good thing.

SPEAKER_03

That's true, that's a good point. Um, but I do agree that doctors are, I mean, they will go to another room and they or they'll ask another doctor or they'll phone a friend or whatever. But to immediately go to Chat GBT was a little concerned.

SPEAKER_06

Here's the thing. That's probably where m we more information is than anything.

SPEAKER_05

Well, we have we have we we have really good friends who are doctors, and we have friends who are general practitioners. Right. And we also have uh a really good close friend who's a radiologist.

SPEAKER_08

Right.

SPEAKER_05

And they have to look at film and look at um like different digital things, whatever, whatever, whatever. And it just it so impresses me of the knowledge that he has to be able to do that.

SPEAKER_08

Yes.

SPEAKER_05

Um now I'm not sure even AI is even close to that. Maybe it is, I don't know. I trust the human factor with it because it is a human looking at another human. Um the general practitioner, when they're looking stuff up, if that's their only if they're coming to the office and they're only like diagnosing systems to give medication or natural advice to hey, do this, do that. What aren't they gonna get replaced by chat GTP? Like you get like a an online robot robot doctor to type in and ask the yeah, I can just ask it. Yeah, because that right that robot is gonna be on time, you don't have to sit on the daily paper for too long.

SPEAKER_03

Or you've got the the the Fitbits and all the things, but if you had a robot do a scan of you in your home, like you know, I don't know.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah, the robot scan you again, self-diagnosing.

SPEAKER_03

Is it I mean that's but that's not technically self-diagnosing, that's robot diagnosing.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, if you are so you yeah, you are you asking that if you ask chat GPT, are you self-diagnosing? Or no, you're not. In my opinion, no, you're not. Okay. Self-diagnosing would be like, let's see, uh, my lungs hurt. So it's not the same thing. Yeah, no, I think you're asking a professional. Yeah, you're asking a robot.

SPEAKER_05

Okay, so that here's another thing. Like if there's like something wrong with your car and you're giving all the symptoms to your car, and the car and the robot's like, hey, it could be this, this, this, this, and that. Right. But the robot's not there by your car, listen to the clinking and clanging and and the whatever hose is not connected.

SPEAKER_03

So well, I mean, just like when you go to a mechanic and they plug it into a device, we've already gotten to that point where they plug it into a device and do a diagnostic on your vehicle. So the robot is diagnosing it and then the mechanics are fixing it.

SPEAKER_05

Okay.

SPEAKER_03

But the di the the diagnosis is from not the mechanic, it's from the robot. The robot is diagnosing it.

SPEAKER_05

So you're saying even though uh they're using the robot intelligence, that the experts are the only ones that can use it.

SPEAKER_03

Well, what I think is cool is that it's just, you know, AI is just like any other tool. And mechanics have been using AI for years because they've been using this diagnostic. But then they're partnering together where they're using the diagnostic. And then they're fixing the problem.

SPEAKER_06

I think if you uh for self maybe this is a technicality, but if you're asking any Anybody other than yourself, then that's not self-diagnostic. You're right. So if you're looking up on the computer, then yeah, then you're you're seeking help. And that I don't think that if it's self, then you can't ask somebody else. You can only ask yourself. You can't go, that's interesting.

SPEAKER_03

Well, I just thought of this while we were talking about it. It's like with a doctor, with a mechanic, you they're using a robot to diagnose it, yeah, and then they fix the problem that the mechanic does.

SPEAKER_08

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

But a doctor is using the diagnosis to like the jet chat GBT or whatever, but they're not fixing me.

SPEAKER_06

Maybe if you if you have cancer or something like that.

SPEAKER_03

Right, right. But I mean, like if you're going to like a family practitioner and and they're like, here's a diagnosis, they're just giving you the diagnosis.

SPEAKER_06

It's like if you check engine lights on.

SPEAKER_03

Right.

SPEAKER_06

It's kind of like we all need that. That's kind of like humans.

SPEAKER_03

It's almost like the the family practitioner is like the middleman. Does that make sense?

SPEAKER_05

Okay.

SPEAKER_03

Whereas like I could just go around you and go just to this. Whereas the mechanic is like the machine is right. The mechanic actually has a purpose because he's got to get in there and he has to know how to work the machine or whatever to fix it. Yeah, he's got to fix it.

SPEAKER_05

All right. Well, moving on. Uh-huh.

SPEAKER_03

It's kind of interesting.

SPEAKER_05

All right. That was uh it was interesting. Okay, so how serious takes, I thought. Serious, serious takes. Serious business. Uh okay. What are your thoughts on uh and I think I already know the answer from both of you, and I know I already know my answer. You've already self-diagnosed? Yeah, I've already self-diagnosed this. But like movie theaters or staying at home, home theaters.

SPEAKER_03

I'm split on this.

SPEAKER_05

Asking preference?

SPEAKER_03

Yeah. I'm split on this.

SPEAKER_06

No, no, you've had to choose.

SPEAKER_03

No, I'm split. You can be split. You have to choose.

SPEAKER_06

What do you mean? You mean like you can't watch movies at home anymore? No, no, no.

SPEAKER_01

Like if you're gonna watch all you have to do, all movies at theaters are it's just preference.

SPEAKER_05

Like preference. If you're if it's a really good movie and you know it's it's a blockbuster, and you're like, oh man, like this Michael Jackson movie coming out. I want to see it.

SPEAKER_06

I'll say a couple caveats. I in theater, I like it if I'm seeing it for the first time, like it. So if I've seen it already, then seeing it at home is fine. But if I'm this is my first time seeing it, and if it's a a movie that for whatever the scenery or the cinema the cinematography is going to be, if seeing it on a big screen will improve it, then yes. But if it's some kind of uh maybe like a drama, you could say, or something, I don't have to see that on a big screen. But if it's gonna be something that the cinematography is really nice and they you know that like you know that they took time and they're shooting, and if it's something that the bigger would make, but like I don't need to see bigger of people sitting at a restaurant and talking or something. Right. You know what I mean?

SPEAKER_03

I am a hundred percent with you on that. I just saw the movie Hail Mary.

SPEAKER_08

Hail Mary Project.

SPEAKER_03

The Hail Mary Project, is that what it's called?

SPEAKER_08

Yep.

SPEAKER_03

Um, and it was one that I enjoyed seeing on big screen. Is it a Tupac movie? No, it's uh Brian Gosling movie. It's but it's about outer space, it's about space. Okay so when you're watching on the big screen.

SPEAKER_06

See, like that, I would even say if it's something dealing with space, especially, I would even say maybe like an IMAX. It would have been a good one. I want to see Guardians of the Galaxy in an IMAX, something like that. Yeah. Yeah. But if it's uh you know drama comedy that's not and I don't have to be a good idea.

SPEAKER_03

But I like like Downton Abbey, I I went into the movie and saw the final because uh some of my friends we all went to the movie together and watched it together because it's was the finale of the video.

SPEAKER_06

My daughter and I did the finale for uh what's that Netflix? Stranger Things. Oh, yeah, that was in the in the theater. Yeah, yeah, the lat the last movie or whatever.

SPEAKER_03

Did you like it better in the theater? Like, were you glad that you went to the theater to see it?

SPEAKER_06

Yes, for the only fact like it didn't make the show any better to me, but everyone was there and we knew like no one had seen this, like this was being aired.

SPEAKER_02

Right. Okay.

SPEAKER_06

So when something happened, a lot of the theater, you know, like that people were, you know, excited. No, that people were yelling when something happened, and you feel like you're doing that with all of you are there. Yeah, you didn't know, but you know it's almost like you're on a ride together. You are, yeah. You're with all these people that are that have been watching this series probably for staying invested just like you were, and so when things were happening and then you know they got you know they on the edge of your seat and you're doing it with these people, and it was fun. I know your take.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah, my well, my take's mainly surrounding with the people that go to the theater, the the average patron that goes to the movie theater. It sometimes can be hard to get around. Like if we've gone to drive-ins or movie theaters, and drive-ins you you you right there, and it's like people smoke a cigar upside you. I mean, I know you're outside, come on, man, but like dang, I'm here with my family trying to enjoy a movie, and I gotta smell smell your cigar smoke.

SPEAKER_02

Especially if they're parked really close right next to you.

SPEAKER_03

Or not, it's not a big deal.

SPEAKER_05

Or like if in the movie theater, you know. If they're smoking a cigar in the movie theater, I want to know what theater you're going to. Or like you just had the experience. You told me, yeah.

SPEAKER_03

You told me when you were there, like with So when I went and saw that Hail Mary Project movie, the the two like the movie had already started. It had already been going on for I'm not talking like previews, I'm talking the actual movie, had been going on for like 15 minutes. Yeah. And these two young teenagers, girls, sat right next to me, and they were on their phone taking selfies of each other, and their phone was lit up at the highest light.

SPEAKER_06

Of course, yeah. That's what you want when you're in a dark theater.

SPEAKER_03

That's really C Rose. That was pretty annoying.

SPEAKER_05

The last that was annoying. The last annoying thing I had happen at a theater, and it's been years ago, but it was when Endgame came out, Marvel's Avengers End Game came out, and it was like opening night, it came out, me and my daughter went to go see it, and it's the same thing. The reason I wanted to go is because we're all experiencing the same thing. Well, we get there, and the movie's starting, and as you know, it starts out with Tony Stark in space and all that stuff, whatever, and he's got some dialogue he's doing. And right when it opens up and he's kind of talking and being in his little memoirs or whatever, you got like these guys like right beside us, like they're like talking and hanging out and chatting it up. And the movie started. I don't I understand during the previews, whatever, whatever. But like the movie started.

SPEAKER_06

It's like like day, like day of release, like so. No one has seen this. Yeah, and I don't want to be a wet blanket, but I was like, I like the talking in between.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah, that's no good. And so I I'm I actually did. I was like, I l I'm I was trying to be nice. I was like, I was like, hey my dude, hey, you mind cutting it out? We're trying to watch the movie. Oh, yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Did he? Yeah. Oh, wow, that's cool. That's not the norm, though.

SPEAKER_05

I know, but I wasn't, I mean, I wasn't like super mean. I wasn't like, hey, shut up. I was like, hey, hey, my dude, you mind a little bit? Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, I don't mind if they're making noise if it's like ineffective, like if something happens and they're like, oh, you know, and it's like in the whole crap, but like for you to just be oh yeah, speaking. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Especially you got to know the room, meaning that if it's loud and somebody's talking, it's no big deal. But when there's like quiet moments, yeah, and then girls taking selfies.

SPEAKER_05

And that's the reason I don't like going to movie theater because I don't even want to say something to somebody and and call something because people are weird. Oh so just buy out the whole theater when you go. I guess just get all 200 seats and then just upgrade my home theater. Anyway, yeah. But okay, so the last one here. Okay, we've got one we got one more, one more. Last one, last one. All right. So has okay, serious talk. So has uh are we getting worse with our social interaction because of phones? And this dovetails into what we're talking about earlier about having good customer service or people recognizing there's a someone in front of them instead of like someone on the other end of the phone. Um you know, like you've heard about keyboard courage, like people writing comments, whatever, right now, even um, you know, saying something that would say in comments that it probably wouldn't say to our face or whatever. Um, but just because of the you know, safety net of of the phone, but people's social interactions have gone askew because of a hundred percent, yeah.

SPEAKER_03

I mean, even like even in your own home, like you know, social interaction is different because of the phone. I mean, so a hundred percent.

SPEAKER_06

Like children get them so young now too. It's like can that phone become when you get something that young, yeah, and it I mean you've grow you're growing up with it in your life. Like when I grew up, like there wasn't like you didn't you didn't have a phone. No, no, a floppy disk. Well and computers were were you know right.

SPEAKER_03

When our kids were little, I mean that was the thing is that I see a lot of kids, you know, and I I have grace for these people that like you know, their their kid is like, you know, you're trying to have a nice meal and the kid, you know, needs some kind of distraction because this whole world is a distraction now, and so it's hard.

SPEAKER_06

When I was a kid, we ate the meal with the with our parents.

SPEAKER_03

Right, but like our kids when they were little, we would play, we would take the sugar packets out and play go go fish with sugar packets and like do different things, like for sure on the tables.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, I I think for sure phones have I mean, as much as they are helpful, they're just as much a uh destroying, yeah, you know, just the human interaction. Just interacting with somebody because you're interacting more with the phone, they're more tuned in to the phone anyway. Exactly. Even like when you're talking with someone, people will be they'll check, you know, their phone to see like it's like wow, that yeah.

SPEAKER_05

I mean honestly, the the soft skills they'll call it soft skills about interacting with people, the pleasantries, if I said that right. But just uh just interaction with people in general.

SPEAKER_03

Well, you're not meeting strangers, right? Meaning that like if you're at the doctor's office or you're waiting in line at a restaurant or wherever you are, you're people are on their phone instead of like where you actually had to stay there and not be on a phone and say like, hey, you're gonna be able to do that.

SPEAKER_05

Is that because of that, it's probably has a downturn in go in yecause I mean the Bible says that we're supposed to go forth and bring people into the church or like sure or at least have interaction with them so we can either either lead them to the Lord or at least have some relationship to at least point them that direction.

SPEAKER_02

Right.

SPEAKER_05

And so I'm guilty of that. Where I'm at, you know, I'm in a place where I rather look at my phone than meet someone new. Um trying.

SPEAKER_03

That's true. I know. Trying to be different. That is true.

SPEAKER_06

Keep the good faith. There's still really great people out there. My daughter works for a fast food restaurant. Yeah, and she's good people. She was my daughter was outside, you know, when they when you come up and you order. Yeah. And she's getting this lady's order, and my daughter said this lady had like rings on every finger, multiple rings on every finger. And she had so much jewelry. My daughter loves you know, jewelry. It's like that's right up Eden's alley. And she's like, this lady was wearing this watch that I mean, looks like it's just diamond out, you know. Yeah.

SPEAKER_08

Right.

SPEAKER_06

And Eden's like, I love all your jewelry. That watch is so pretty. And the lady goes, Oh, you like it? Here. And she took the watch off, gave the watch to my daughter.

SPEAKER_03

She gave the watch to her.

SPEAKER_06

Gave it to her. She's like, I bought this awesome 20 years ago in Texas. She was like, You can have this. And Eden's like, Are you serious? And she's like, Yeah, yeah. So, I mean, and that interaction was just from her my daughter taking this lady's order and saying, Yeah, I love how you wear so much jewelry. She's like, Eden's like, you know, a lot of people, I like it when they and I was like, it's a lady that had a real Mr. T starter kit, huh? She's like, She had so many rings. She's like rings and then just bracelets up her arm. Wow.

SPEAKER_03

Well, that's the thing, is that nowadays, if you s do any, like just a little something.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, just her saying, like, I love you doing that. Now, Eden, yeah, Eden will not forget that the you know that that watch came from this lady. Sure. Yeah, because she's being nice, being a person, just interacting. Eden also, she was like, you know, the only other watch she was ever given, she I've never bought her a watch. And but you know, the way it, you know, she's got one of those Apple watch, you know, I don't really need one, but she likes them for you know jewelry. Sure. When we went to a church uh years ago, there was she this uh lady that went to church there, same thing. Eden was like six and was like, I really like that watch, the lady Avery watch.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah. I'm gonna start doing that. She wasn't bigger.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

Good idea. Even open up a portal of for a watch, yeah.

SPEAKER_06

I'm like, that's nice. I mean, I know what time it is. I'm not a building one. I really like that cash in the wall.

SPEAKER_07

I really like those hundreds you got.

SPEAKER_01

I really like that Lexus thing you're driving.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah, yeah, some good serious takes. Be nice, people. That's very serious.
