Episode 132 - Drift and Weight: A Journey to Better Health

Returning from their summer hiatus, the Drift Down the Road podcast crew kicks off with a technological upgrade that brings their first-ever remote call-in guest. Between laughs about a Home Depot "crop dusting" incident and cravings for chile relleno burritos, the conversation takes a serious turn when health becomes the focal point.

A recent stroke scare involving one host's father becomes the catalyst for the episode's most compelling segment - a weight loss challenge where each participant commits to losing 20 pounds. But this is no ordinary fitness pact. The hosts develop a unique accountability system where everyone must reach their target weight, or the successful participants will be "held hostage" in terms of dietary choices until the stragglers catch up. It's a fascinating look at how friendship, peer pressure, and genuine care can combine to create powerful motivational structures.

The episode weaves through discussions of modern technology's impact on privacy, with one host sharing how managers are now using AI-equipped eyeglasses to record workplace conversations without explicit consent. This leads to thoughtful debate about the boundaries between public and private spaces in the digital age. The hosts also expose predatory "alpha male" online coaching programs that target vulnerable young men, sharing a personal story of how one host's son nearly fell victim to such schemes.

A somber conversation about situational awareness follows the tragic story of a Ukrainian refugee murdered on public transit, prompting reflection on how small decisions can dramatically impact personal safety. Despite the heavy topics, the episode maintains the show's signature balance of authentic friendship, humor, and meaningful discussion.

Ready to join their weight loss challenge or share your thoughts? The hosts invite listeners to call in at 323-207-0012. Tune in next week when they'll be joined by "El Profe" while two hosts adventure in Yosemite. Keep on drifting!

He don't even care hey, mark, what do you think? These guys we're gonna be me and Mark are gonna be in Yosemite next week oh yeah, so I don't know if we should call in Nah.

Mark 8:07

We should use this app.

Lano 8:09

Are you on the phone? Yeah, Are you using your cell phone?

Ricky 8:11

I mean you could do it or just do a little quick segment.

Mig 8:13

Probably, if you get reception.

Mark 8:14

Yeah, I have my cell phone on the. It's actually pretty cool guys. I have my cell phone on dresser and I'm just flipping through my graffiti magazine, so it's not. That's not bad, it's pretty dope. Yeah, I'm not even close to my phone. I don't even have to be on my phone or nothing, have my airpods on, just doing it because you're talking through your airpods.

Lano 8:33

Yeah, yeah, that's cool that gets rid of the echo because it won't come out the speakers and yeah, pick up I put you guys on mute when I went downstairs.

Mark 8:40

When you guys can't hear me oh, oh, okay, okay, there we go. Yeah, I was supposed to be. I just came back right now from a walk. Dude did like a little walk with a rucksack, oh, and then so I didn't get to text the first time, so I heard it. I heard it come through, but I didn't read it, though this is a perfect this is a perfect.

Lano 9:02

This is a perfect transition right here so yeah, let me do a shout out one of our OG. He calls himself the OG. Original listeners my dad. Og Mike knee replacement surgery yesterday. He just came out of the hospital, maybe like 3 hours ago he's recovering for knee replacement is he good?

Mig 9:23

Ricky 9:29

Shout out Mike, yeah, I.

Mark 9:33

Yeah, get well soon, Mike.

Ricky 9:35

Yeah, get, well, soon He'll like.

Mark 9:36

Wolverine.

Ricky 9:38

Yeah, because I busted my knee the Friday before Labor Day weekend.

Mig 9:43

That's what I wanted to do with this show. I wanted to welcome you to the broken down old man club.

Ricky 9:50

Man, I've been breaking down man.

Lano 9:53

It was a non-contact injury, like nothing happened, like you were by yourself.

Ricky 9:56

Yeah, I was non-contact.

Mark 9:58

I was trying to get a raise. I was stepping into the trench I was trying to get promotion.

Ricky 10:03

My knee just like got caught up high into the trench. We're trying to get promotion. My knee just like got caught up high on the trench and my knee twisted and it just popped. But so I went and continued twisting my knee, like I spun to straighten out my knee and I pulled my knee towards me.

Mig 10:17

You say that even one of his employees heard it pop dude yeah.

Ricky 10:24

My helper right next to me is like man, that your knee, my whole life flashed before my eyes Like welcome to the club. That's scary, it's a tightness. The pain is inside my knee and it's, and it feels like. When I get the pain it feels like a tightness. So until I start moving it and I start walking around, then the pain goes away, like I don't have no swelling.

Mig 10:47

But It'll come randomly.

Ricky 10:49

Yeah, that's why.

Mig 10:50

You'll wake up one morning and it'll just be swollen for no reason.

Ricky 10:53

Yeah.

Mark 10:55

So are you like, are you the handicap or anything like that, or?

Ricky 10:58

what? Nah, I'm not. I mean I, I would welcome a handicap plaque so I could park in the front parking lot, maybe an express lane. I mean I would take that.

Mark 11:10

So is it going to derail your Segway?

Ricky 11:13

Yeah, okay, so health-wise, and also how Miggy's always talking about. The generations are soft and all this. I'm going to challenge you guys. We got to get healthy, especially with this, with health scares from my dad.

Lano 11:36

Oh, what happened with your dad? Just normal stuff or new stuff.

Mig 11:41

For all you drifters out there. About a month ago we had a pretty good scare my dad, me and Rick. Our dad had a stroke.

Lano 11:50

Yeah, oh, wow, I didn't know that.

Mig 11:52

So it was pretty mild in nature but still scary.

Ricky 11:55

Yeah.

Mig 11:56

But very preventable. The reason it happened is because he wasn't taking his meds, and especially the cholesterol one. And they say that's what happened. The cholesterol caused a blockage and a part of the blockage broke off and went up into his brain and started causing a stroke, but lucky enough we were, we were able to get him to the hospital fast enough to where nothing major happened.

Ricky 12:24

So yeah, he's on the mend, he's doing good.

Lano 12:27

So diet is important, exercise is important he was by himself or like you're home oh, it was.

Mig 12:33

Uh, it was at home. It was on a saturday morning you're home too.

Ricky 12:37

Yeah, oh wow so this is kind of calling you guys out because I want us to do a challenge, a weight loss challenge, because we need to get going.

Mig 12:53

I need to, I know I need to.

Ricky 12:54

But this is I'm in, and I'm saying it more like because I want you to get serious. We're all included, but you pick your target weight that you want to lose, just losing weight. It's not about you have to do this exercise, you have to diet this.

Ricky 13:12

however, you can do it, we have to hit our target weight but, this is the thing you pick your target weight, lano, you pick your target weight you want. I pick my target weight and then, mark, I don't know if you want in on it, but I'll get down. We all got to hit our target weight To get the reward. Yeah, no no.

Ricky 13:39

But the reward is that you know we're healthy. We stay with the routine, yeah, and then even pass. But let's just say I hit my target weight, lionel hits his target weight, Mark hits his target weight and you're lagging and you're struggling because you're not disciplined for whatever reason.

Mig 14:00

Well, they're lagging because I'm not disciplined.

Ricky 14:01

For you're not disciplined. So I want to say you're going to hold us hostage where we'll have to just eat like salads, like we won't be able to Until he gets there. Until he gets there, oh shit, you can't win. So that's why. Because just like money is like, oh, you know, he won the money, whatever. No, that way, you know, you're holding us hostage and we can't have our good food Until you're Getting serious.

Mig 14:27

This is some Full metal jacket. Jelly Donut shit right there, man Yup.

Ricky 14:31

And I think you need that, that, that push yeah, cause there's no more.

Mark 14:36

Excuses.

Ricky 14:37

No more body pain Cause a lot of the body pain. It'll, it'll. It'll help out With losing A lot of the weight. Yeah.

Lano 14:46

So Okay, we're in September. So what are you saying? Like 2026?

Ricky 14:51

I mean like January, no, no, no, we got to start it Like if we're starting.

Lano 14:53

No, no, no, but like we start now, but the end date is like next year, until we all hit our weight, oh, until you hit the date.

Ricky 15:00

No, we have to.

Mig 15:01

That's the whole point, like if I'm not showing progress and you guys are. That's the whole point of what Rick's saying.

Ricky 15:08

He's holding us hostage.

Mig 15:09

It's like say you guys all Drop. Like say Rick dropped 20 pounds, you dropped 15. You know, mark dropped 15 and I gained 2. You know, that's when you guys can start saying it's like okay, you know. Well, you know it's like we're going to have to start living miserable until you, until I start showing improvement.

Ricky 15:33

And that way that shows you that look, yeah, cause that's going to make me feel like shit Cause.

Health Scares and Weight Loss Challenge

Mig 15:38

I'm like dude, it's like there's consequences because I'm not trying and I'm making you guys suffer because I'm not trying. Yeah, and that's like the whole point of our discussions of accountability and responsibility for this new generation Yep, where you know Rick's like hitting it on the nail, where he's saying that I just want to like bitch, bitch, bitch about it, but do nothing.

Mark 16:01

Yeah.

Mig 16:03

So he's calling Hold on.

Mark 16:05

You guys are talking about just losing weight, like we can't gain weight. What if I think I look better at 325?

Lano 16:11

Wow, what's your target weight?

Mig 16:16

It's weight or body percentage no weight dude as long as you lose your boobies, dude Don't want you gonna stare at me when I see you.

Mark 16:30

Wow, unless he could you don't gotta tell me hey, I'm up here, anymore, I say hey, my eyes are up here, my eyes are up here.

Ricky 16:39

Lalo needs to fit in that death row basketball jersey and you know what? What's the deadline for this? No, no deadline. It's.

Lano 16:53

It's until everybody hits their weight and we hold the other hostage or something. So we can?

Ricky 16:59

we can all be miserable eating. We got to pick, all right, since once we hit our weight, whatever it is like, we're stuck to eating just salads or this or that until Mick hits his weight.

Mark 17:15

All right, well, we got to outline it. What's like the penalty mill? And then, how are we going to track our weights? Are we going to weigh and set a picture to each other or something, and hold each other accountable, like that?

Ricky 17:26

However, we need to lose the weight.

Lano 17:29

That's up to us, but every show an update, or once a month an update.

Mig 17:35

Yeah, well, we can figure it out.

Ricky 17:38

Okay, but at least, let's figure out what's the reasonable penalty like once out. What's the the a reasonable penalty? Um?

Mig 17:46

yeah like once, once someone hits the weight, this is what you just eat, or you're stuck eating that, or what would be a good since, since my weight loss, my goal is gonna be a lot more and you guys, more than likely, are probably gonna hit your goals first. Should I? Should I set like levels? It's going to be a lot more and you guys, more than likely, are probably going to hit your goals first. Should I set like levels? We can set levels To where I want to get to.

Ricky 18:12

Yep, we can set levels. Like, my first milestone would be so-and-so, and second milestone would be this one, Because hopefully that kickstarts you and then you get in your routine.

Mig 18:21

Yeah, and then we don't even have to do the challenge anymore, it's all about routine yeah.

Mark 18:24

It's just getting you into that routine. Yeah, it's all about discipline.

Ricky 18:28

Yeah.

Mig 18:31

Yeah, discipline and checks and balances too, but say, we hit our weight.

Ricky 18:35

It could be like all right, you know we want to. Our next challenge is it could be like we want to do a mountain like I want to. Our next challenge is it could be like we, we want to do a mountain, uh, like london could be. I want to do a mountain peak hike. I ain't going to work with donald. Oh no, I'm just. Yeah, I'm not going to. I'm not going to. That guy leaves you for dead. Fuck that guy I remember that yeah so it could be like a next challenge yeah like, because there's only so much weight that we'll be able to lose.

Mig 19:04

I know.

Ricky 19:05

So we can just do all right. My next challenge is I want to do a half marathon in so many minutes, Right, so once I hit that, or just runs or whatever, like we just set different goals.

Ricky 19:20

I mean so, like if you want to do the first levels, like, all right, we're going to do 10 pounds, 15 pounds, 15 pounds, and then we do it like that, okay, because yeah, I mean to do for you to hold us hostage if we hit our weight, for you to hold us hostage until you lose 50 pounds. It'll take a while, so we can do levels, this hostage until you lose 50 pounds. Yeah, it'll take a while so we can do levels. Because I mean me too. I mean I'm trying to kick the habit of fucking eating junk food in.

Mig 19:52

Yeah, I mean that's hard.

Ricky 19:53

I go up and down and weigh, like I'm not happy with my weight and I need a drop. I'm like what? 245 right now For the marathon. I want to be like at 215. Yeah, so I can feel, so I can get that hit that four hours. I think I need to be at 215.

Lano 20:20

How close have you gotten that four hours?

Ricky 20:22

It was one year. I was like four hours, like nine minutes, I think Something like that.

Mig 20:28

I was close to like 10 minutes 10 minutes yeah.

Ricky 20:31

But that was a few years ago and that and that, and I was so pissed because I got fucking cramps If I didn't have cramps, I would have already broke.

Lano 20:38

I feel like this year you're doing good with your training, but then I don't remember.

Mig 20:52

Yeah, doing good with your training, but then I don't remember.

Ricky 20:53

Yeah no, yeah, it was good. What was your time this year? Um, I think I was just under five hours. Okay, you felt yourself. You felt yourself get hurt, or you felt like you didn't want to.

Lano 20:56

I guessed out, I guessed out, so that's what I was. Every year you do it. Are you feeling like you're getting um like more tired, like more tired, because your body's like no getting older every year?

Ricky 21:04

the past years I haven't trained for it so it's like I just go out and do it. I mean, of course I'm gonna feel horrible, so I can't even gauge if I'm, you know, going downhill. I was gonna.

Ricky 21:18

I mean your body's getting older every year yeah, but if you stay in the routine like I always say, I'm gonna stay running all year long and I don't, but I. But if you stay in the routine like I always say, I'm going to stay running all year long and I don't, but I think if you stay in that routine, it'll be fine. Because, dude, if these damn 60, 70-year-olds are still down out there doing good times because they're runners.

Lano 21:38

But that's their routine. I mean they wake up and probably run.

Mig 21:41

Yeah, they're dedicated runners. Eat their toast and everything. I mean they wake up and probably run. Yeah, they're dedicated runners.

Lano 21:42

Eat their toast and everything.

Mark 21:44

Avocado toast. All right, so women weighing in.

Ricky 21:50

All right, well, look it, we're going to Yosemite next weekend, next week, so you can see, you want to start after Yosemite. Well, no.

Mig 21:59

Let's start it right here.

Mark 22:03

We got to start after those burritos.

Ricky 22:05

Oh damn, let's get serious here. Every time Mickey hits a milestone we get burritos after. Mickey hits a milestone well, like I mean it's up to us, like if we eat a burrito, that's just gonna delay the process like we could eat.

Mig 22:22

That's the thing. There's like no, there's no rules to. There's like no, there's no rules to it.

Ricky 22:28

Ricky 26:04

That's good.

Mig 26:06

On a little side note, I don't know if we have new listeners now or old listeners, or listened to our last show when we introduced that Barron's Baseball Academy.

Lano 26:20

And the audio podcast blew up on that. We had. We had some big numbers yeah.

Mig 26:25

So I just want to give uh baron's baseball academy a shout out and um, they have been hitting tournaments and they have been winning.

Ricky 26:31

They've been bringing home the bringing home the rings, the jewelry, the hardware ever since they've been winning, yeah, well I mean, they were the luck charm I hope so.

Mig 26:41

Yeah, but uh, they're, they're doing good.

Mark 26:43

Who are these? Who are these folks? The baron folks? That's all you post on instagram. Yeah, they're. They're just um they're they.

Mig 26:50

They started, um, just like homies and stuff. Well, I like them. You know from the hood, you know just just guys, that that grew up playing baseball, that had seen a need for the community needing like some kind of guidance and leadership, you know, for the kids that want to play baseball. You know. So they formed an academy or a club. You know the Barron's Baseball Club or Academy, where they take kids and they teach them like the fundamentals and they play in, you know, in the rec leagues and they do a travel ball and tournament play and everything. So you know they do all ages and they just started doing girls softball and baseball. Also they're expanding.

Ricky 27:40

Yeah, they're expanding. Yeah, they're expanding, okay, okay.

Mig 27:43

That's why we had them on the show, that way they can get a little more exposure. You know it's like I told them. You know it's like for whoever listens to us. Hopefully some people that are interested, you know will hear and you know, expand them, because I talk to the coaches a lot.

Mig 28:01

Before we had my friend Sylvia on and the coaches, you know they explained to me that at first he started just there was a couple of kids. You know that they were playing, you know, trying to teach a baseball and from a couple of kids and turned into more and then they had like a full team and you know, now they have like all ages and different levels, you know just like kind of like all snowball and avalanche, you know, but like with anything like that that they do, you know they need support, you know. Or they need more, more kids, you know, to fill bigger teams and more teams, you know, so that way they can be more competitive. You know they need help, like with fundraising and stuff. So that that's why I keep on posting on the instagram all the barons of baseball stuff, you know, and uh, that way you guys can check out their uh website also see what they're all about hey, I saw you spamming it.

Mark 28:58

Good deal, it was on there a lot.

Lano 29:04

So Well, we got a lot of, like, new listeners. And then I want to give a shout out. I got some new listeners at work Samantha and Daniel. They started listening to the show, so shout out to them. What episode did they start listening to the week before the last one?

Ricky 29:20

They listen or they watch.

Lano 29:22

They listen.

Ricky 29:23

Oh, okay.

Mig 29:25

Yeah because the YouTube numbers still need to.

Ricky 29:29

Go up. If people are used to listening, they're not going to go back and listen. We're not that entertaining.

Mig 29:35

No, I think people more than anything, just like listening to us in the background While they're working and stuff or on a drive Rather than watch us.

Mark 29:47

That's what I do. I listen to you guys while I'm on the road, Either first thing in the morning. I put it on YouTube.

Ricky 29:55

Don't lie. I know I got you hooked on the AMU Universe drama. Hey, this guy, rick, dude this guy.

There's a couple of people out there. There's one called American Thor. There's another dude he's badass. Yeah, yeah. And then there's one other cat, some third dude but hey, there's john johnny.

Ricky 31:11

When he's getting pedicure, he's gonna hear how bad of a tipper he is.

Lano 37:59

Or how bad his feet smell. I tip excellent.

Mark 38:03

Mig 38:05

Well, what would be good is that Rick could finally hear what that old man that crop dusted him was saying, that bastard.

Ricky 38:13

Dude, I wanted to, I wanted to fucking kick his shin, dude.

Mark 38:19

I can't believe he got me like that dude.

Ricky 38:21

Hey, you know on the way here and then you know coming in. I got the sun and this bastard behind me was tugging at me and I was like what the? I kept saying what the fuck Like back off me, like this, that and what happens? I fucking hit the car in front of me Like keeping an eye on the idiot behind me, dumbass.

Ricky 38:42

You bumped him or what it was like you know, jumping on the 10 to the 5? Yeah, you know what backs up? Yeah, I didn't hit him hard, but it was like I was so focused on that idiot I didn't know how to realize how close it was. And it just like boom, and I'm like fuck, get off. And then like nothing happened. His car, nothing happened to mine. He was just like it was a cool dude. He's like, oh, is he cool? Yeah, he's like nothing happened. He's like he told me don't fall asleep, like the idiot.

Lano 39:13

I was looking at the idiot behind me and you're in your work van, or what are you?

Mig 39:15

doing oh, my car. What do you? What do you tell you? Yeah, I was doing the same thing, malibu, yeah.

Lano 39:19

Yeah, I know he's looking behind you, hit him yeah.

Ricky 39:23

Yeah, I was like dude, what the hell.

Mig 39:28

Talking about the rabbit holes, yeah, there was a while back, like a few weeks ago, I went down this freaking rabbit hole because it came up on my YouTube. I don't know why it came up, but it was crazy as hell. I should have saved the pages. Well, I could probably go dig it up, but I wanted to send it to Mark because it was all about the MCU characters.

Mig 39:57

Marvel, you know, like if they made the movies but with actors like, if, like, if say they would have made it in the 70s, who would have played who you know?

Mark 40:07

like actors, don't tell me you're going to bring up Sylvester Stallone being Wolverine.

Mig 40:12

Oh dude, clint Eastwood. They had Clint Eastwood playing Wolverine and he looked badass dude.

Mark 40:19

Hey, you gotta search the web. There's a picture Wood playing.

Mig 40:21

Wolverine and he looked badass dude.

Mark 40:23

Hey, you gotta search the web. There's a picture of Sylvester Stallone playing Wolverine. It's so corny man.

Mig 40:31

But I think it was gonna be a thing. I don't think I saw him playing that, but they did show one where he was the Punisher.

Mark 40:37

I checked that out. I think thisisher would have probably dope.

Mig 40:43

Yeah, but it was cool, man, because it was like showing actors from like the 60s, 70s, 80s and 90s, Like who would play who.

Lano 40:52

We got something on the screen. Is this, the one you can't see, but he's wearing like a red shirt. A red shirt, and then he has the haircut.

Mig 40:59

Yeah, that is pretty whack. Who is that, sylvester?

Lano 41:03

Stallone yeah, I mean. Well, it's like.

Ricky 41:05

AI Dude Hugh Jackman.

Mark 41:07

No, no, that's before AI, bro. That's old, that's old. I've seen that like 10 years ago.

Ricky 41:13

No, no, no no.

Mark 41:14

Hugh Jackman is the best Wolverine.

Mig 41:19

Yeah, I think you're right dude yeah, yeah, I think you're right. Yeah, but I'll think it up. It's gotta be on my YouTube on my history.

Ricky 41:24

I'll think it up and I'll send it to you guys. I don't think anyone else can play Wolverine, just like I don't think Anyone should play Joker After Heath Ledger.

Mig 41:36

Well, I mean, if you just like, just based on looks alone, dude. When I saw how they transformed Clint Eastwood into.

Lano 41:43

Wolverine. Well, go down the list. Who was the other characters?

Mig 41:45

Other characters For Wolverine. Not only for Wolverine, all the MCU characters they had. Of course, like in the 70s or 80s, if they were going to do the Hulk, they would have the original, they would have Bill Bigsby and Lou Frigno do that.

Mark 42:03

Hey man, was that AI? Was that AI generated?

Mig 42:06

It was AI. No, it was AI.

Mark 42:08

Oh, was it. Oh, okay, okay, okay.

Mig 42:10

Yeah, but it was cool, man, just to see the rendering and shit. Yeah, I've seen stuff like that.

Ricky 42:14

I've seen stuff like that before it's like they show the character and then they merge into the people. How?

Lano 42:21

do you guys feel about that? The skydiver, you guys got that one.

Mig 42:28

Yeah, I love it.

Mark 42:30

What do you guys feel about those videos?

Ricky 42:32

Those AI videos, those transformation, now that you're using AI, Some of them are cool. Some of them are why, they show the cat, the like, the actors when they were like 19 and they go through the years as they're getting older, or the ones where they're cartoons and they show like how they look like live action, like the simpsons or something.

Mark 42:52

Yeah, you know all the ai stuff is kind of trippy, man, you mean, and uh, it's kind of trippy. I'm kind of getting a little tired of seeing it because it's like everywhere now I'm you know. But I think it's kind of trippy and I'm kind of getting a little tired of seeing it because it's like everywhere now. But I think it's kind of like the way it's going.

Ricky 43:05

I'm tired of the baby stuff already.

Mig 43:08

Oh dude, I was over that shit a long time ago.

Ricky 43:10

Yeah, it's like everyone's doing like Diovan, like there's only that one that I show you guys that I like because it has that little pissed off baby.

Mark 43:27

Yeah, because some'm gonna resemble them. Yeah, that one resembles them, but like everyone else is like now they're just like I'm over that. You guys, there's a lot of people on the job site now, like in management, who are wearing like the the plaid uh necklace or they're wearing the ray-ban glasses and that's how they document conversations and create meeting minutes and all that stuff do that they don't even got to tell you because, uh, legally they're allowed to do that if it's in a public, you know atmosphere, and then put their phone on speaker so you know to go on like the whole ai team. They're using ai and like chat, gbt, things like that, to just create all the meaning is and you know what?

Ricky 43:58

I don't know, I think wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. You're that? No, no, because you know you can't record Someone without them knowing.

Mig 44:06

But if you're out in public?

Ricky 44:08

No, no Like if you're like we're in here and there's like a conversation going on and you're gonna, there's some dirt going on, you can't just record someone you have to make it low key, yeah but what you're saying, mark is, if it's in public, you could just record.

Mark 44:26

Yeah, yeah, yeah, you could record those glasses. That are all those glasses they're recorded yeah, yeah, they're ray-ban ones yeah, but.

Ricky 44:37

But but being that it's a job site, that's not really a public space. Yeah, you say we're in a meeting in your trailer.

Mig 44:46

That's not, you're, not, you're not gonna let the public go in there so they got, they have to I saw.

Mark 44:52

I saw this cat using it, like in the job site, so like I would call them out.

Ricky 44:55

Yeah, I, I did, I did't call him out.

Mark 44:57

I did. I called him out today. I was like, hey, are you recording? He's like no, I'm not recording right now. I said do you let us know when you're recording? He's like no, I don't have to if it's in an open public area.

Lano 45:07

Is it a light? A light doesn't turn on or you don't see it.

Mark 45:10

He told me it turns on, but I don't know if it turns on or not Wait, but even in the back parking lot.

Ricky 45:15

Yeah, I was going to say, even if you're in the back lot.

Mig 45:18

that's not a public space, the public's over there, yeah, but it's.

Mark 45:25

The public stands in different lines to get away.

Lano 45:27

They're saying that that guy's wrong.

Ricky 45:28

No, but the actual land that you're on, the space that you're on, that's private property Can you be escorted out of the parking lot if you're acting up what they say, that you're trespassing.

Lano 45:41

So hey, I thought that was a private space, your workers or other contractors.

Ricky 45:46

No, it's like management, I don't know, this thing's getting me heated, but everyone's starting to do it though.

Mark 45:50

Everyone's starting to do it though because now people Now, like people get on meetings and things like that. They have, like note takers, another app. They have AI otter, and the reason why I bring it up, did you bring me the whole AI thing in the photos and stuff like that?

Lano 46:01

I've used the other for more use it.

Mark 46:03

People are using it like for everything. Now. It's kind of trippy man, you know um, but it's kind of makes your work easy. So what do you do?

Ricky 46:12

Oh shit Like.

Mark 46:14

Rick, what if I?

Ricky 46:15

don't want, I Bullshit. Would you guys use it? Would you Like, rick? What if I don't want the government to have my voice? I don't want the government to have my voice, whatever cuts your time down.

Mark 46:22

whatever cuts your time down by 30%, and then at the end it gives you a breakdown of what you did, what you need to do, how to find it. So it gives you there. Would you use it or not?

Ricky 46:33

So the government doesn't have my voice or my look.

Mig 46:37

I'll take the extra 30 minutes. You guys just wait for me if it's standalone and not connected to the net or the cloud or anything like that.

Mark 46:46

Yeah, yeah but if it's connected to the internet in any way, shape or form. No, like it's new stuff coming. Right, guys, it's gonna be the way you know, hey yeah, so so yeah what happened?

Mig 47:00

with that guy what?

Ricky 47:01

happened with that guy mark, that you told him when he told you that he doesn't have to tell you no, I said okay, I didn't really say anything, I mean I really care too much.

Mark 47:10

But he said no, um, he's not how to take his run. A public area which we're in the open, like back lot area, and I and people are in public.

Ricky 47:18

It was a meeting that you were having.

Mark 47:20

So I think, yeah, we're doing a punchless walk. So you know, a punchless walk is that the job's done and he comes through and creates a list of items that need to get fixed and such. You know the things that we have to get done. Right, right, instead of him creating a list on pad and paper or typing it in a computer, he's just talking it and then what he does is takes it back to his office, downloads the information from his glasses, his Ray-Bans, and it just plugs out a whole list off of that with photos.

Lano 47:49

That's kind of smart, though. I mean it's efficient it is.

Mark 47:53

It's efficient. But I don't know if I was hating on him because I thought it was very smart or I didn't like the fact that he was like recording and really didn't say anything about it.

Lano 48:00

Because he's doing it the way you're supposed to be doing it, because it makes you think twice about what you say yeah, yeah, he's doing it for work and like saving him, like bringing out a pad or whatever he's recording.

Ricky 48:10

Yeah, and that's that he's recording.

Mark 48:17

What if you get a sticker on your hard hat that says notify me for recording. Boom, that's what I was thinking. Oh, there you go. I do not consent to being recorded without being notified. Bam, or anything you say on the podcast can and will be used.

Lano 48:34

I guess you're in the court of law.

Mig 48:36

I mean, they would have to like blur you out. I plead the fifth.

The Ukraine Refugee Train Tragedy

Lano 48:39

Like I watch a lot of those theme park like videos, like updates on the construction, Like I see your site and stuff, but some people like blur out, like the background people I didn't, some people don't. I don't know what the rules are maybe youngsters?

Mig 48:59

hey, what about? That girl getting stabbed on that train man. Hey, dude, I didn't hear what happened.

Ricky 49:02

I seen that video today. Yeah, I saw that.

Mark 49:03

I haven't seen the full video this poor girl dude. It's like that fool, just like reached around her they take it from the beginning, they take it from the beginning where.

Lano 49:13

They take it from the beginning. Yeah, take it from where. What happened after it was in North?

Mig 49:15

Carolina the girl. She's a refugee from Ukraine. First of all, Russian, so she's escaping that war, you know, trying to find a safer place to live.

Ricky 49:25

I think she worked at a pizzeria. She got a coffee shop or something like that.

Mig 49:31

Yeah, a pizzeria, I think she had two jobs, yeah, two jobs, yeah, and she was leaving one of them. She gets on the light rail system that they have out there in North Carolina, north Carolina.

Ricky 49:38

North Carolina.

Mig 49:40

So she goes and she sits down, and this is what I mean. What I've been. I've been just like finished talking to my dad, cause I took my dad to the casino on Saturday for his birthday and on the drive back we were talking about this. How it pisses me off when I see people out in the street walking or just being wherever, and their faces are always buried in their phones, dude, and they're not paying attention to anything that's going on around them.

Mig 50:10

They have their faces in their phones, they have these huge headphones on blasting who knows what, so they're not looking at anything, they're not aware of their surroundings and you can't hear anything. And then they wonder why.

Mig 50:24

Shit happens. But this Poor girl. She got on the train and she sat down. The guy was sitting down and the seat in front Was empty, so she sat down. The guy you know was the guy was sitting down and the seat in front was empty. So she, she sat down and, you know, like all of us you know, just started scrolling on her phone and this dude, for no reason whatsoever, just got up, reached around and it looked like he started punching her in the in the face I didn't see video, it just shows the.

Mig 50:56

Yeah, it stops it. It stops it. Well, you know, because I follow you got to go deeper. I follow David Harris Jr and he posted the whole video, but he put a warning On Instagram. On Instagram, I'm going to check that out. Yeah, so you know.

Ricky 51:12

Well, you see him in the video where he puts out his pocket knife.

Mig 51:17

It didn't even show that dude, it's like you see it where he goes in his pocket comes out, and then he flips it open. I didn't see that because he must have just like cut to where the dude got up. Because it looks like he just came around her and just started like punching her. Yeah, you know, and she even reacted.

Ricky 51:36

You know like she put her.

Mig 51:36

Her hands up like this, like, oh, my Like, why is this guy hitting me? And she just like this. And then you just see the poor girl Just like, she just like. Slumps over dude and just falls on the floor.

Lano 51:49

I was like dude I'm like. So she died.

Mig 51:52

Yeah, cause of dude yeah.

Lano 51:55

Slashed her throat.

Mig 51:57

So she bled out like in seconds. You know, you can see it right there you can see her life lever. Right there, Sad dude it was sad dude and the worst thing about it is that this guy should be rotting in jail.

Ricky 52:13

He's a convicted felon of I don't know how many damn convictions, but these idiots, you know that are in charge he's a convicted felon Of I don't know how many Damn convictions, but these idiots.

Mig 52:20

That are in charge, they post no bail and they say that the guy's mentally ill so he can't stay in jail, and on a promise that he's going to show up To his next trial 14 already.

Ricky 52:38

I'm like so is he mentally capable or mentally ill. I think it was 14 felonies Something like that dude. It's a ridiculous amount.

Mig 52:46

He had a huge rap sheet. Yeah, and this guy's still on the street. And then they want to say that, you know, because he's mentally ill, you know. That's why they don't put him in jail. But yet he made a promise to appear in court for the last thing that he committed.

Ricky 53:05

You guys ever think about like she got on the train and she just sat down, like that one decision cost her life, yeah. You guys ever think of how many decisions you've made in your life that had you avoid death, like it could be, like you ran a little late so you didn't run. The red light about that shit all the time like how many times in our lifetime have we avoided death with just the little decisions that we?

Mig 53:32

made. That thought crosses my mind all the time whenever? Well, that whenever whenever I arrive somewhere early or I get there late for whatever reason, you know, I'm like you know what it happened for a reason.

Ricky 53:43

Yeah.

Mig 53:44

It's like cause what if you know and I've come up sometimes where I've come up to like an accident that just happened and I do it If I hadn't gotten delayed at that one lighter, if this one dude hadn't cut me off and I got pissed and got stuck at that that light, that would have been me, yeah.

Ricky 54:01

That's what I was thinking with this poor girl. Like man, why didn't you just go sit in the back or or go to the front?

Mig 54:09

Somewhere where no one could come up from behind you. Ideally, that's what you want and that's why, like whenever I go to Restaurants or anywhere To sit down, I'm always trying to find a seat where I can see the door, see who's coming in and make sure that there's no one that can come up behind me. I'm always trying to do that. My ex she would always tell me why are you always looking around?

Mark 54:36

I'm like I'm like you too I look for exits.

Mig 54:41

With everything that's going on. And you're still asking me why I look around the way I do.

Mark 54:45

Right, you know what I trip out on how come nobody did anything yeah.

Mig 54:55

I don't even know she made us scream or anything.

Ricky 54:56

She didn't there. Yeah, no one, I don't even know. She made a scream, or anything. Huh, she didn't scream so no one, even I zoomed in yeah, her face on the floor her face.

Mig 55:05

It was a look of shock yeah like she was being attacked, because I guarantee I guarantee you she's not even the lady.

Ricky 55:11

There's a lady across from her tour. There was a lady there, so I don't even know how she didn't yell.

Lano 55:17

But it happened so fast Because I'm telling you.

Mig 55:19

It just looked, because I looked at the video over and over and I tried to look closely and there wasn't like a huge thing of blood Anywhere or nothing.

Ricky 55:28

It wasn't to the drip of the blood on the knife. Yeah, it wasn't.

Mig 55:32

It wasn't like in the movies, you know where. It sprays all over the place or whatever you know it's like it must have just like came down, stayed all on her clothes and everything, and then not until she slumped over and fell in between the seat and the little partition.

Lano 55:47

Yeah, Sad dude.

Mig 55:49

Sad, you know, but I mean that's where we're at right now, that all these judges, all these politicians, and everything, would rather protect the criminals and give them more rights than upstanding citizens.

Ricky 56:08

You know, you just you just, we just gotta be aware yeah.

Mig 56:14

I mean, bottom line is you gotta keep your awareness up. You just gotta keep your awareness up, you can up, you can't let your guard down.

Ricky 56:20

We're at the point where we have to control what we can control.

Lano 56:23

It looks like these outside calls. I just get an hour at a time, so it looks like we're going to lose Mark. I got this notice. We might have already lost him.
