Yeah. All right, cool. So that what happened with March Madness? I feel like the mad is like the the key word here. all well no all All sports fans know that the March Madness, which is the collegiate basketball tournament, is going on right now.
00:04:46
Speaker
And um one that I'm very upset about is the University of Florida, which was ranked number one, which is my favorite school. I did not go there, but a lot of my friends did. So I am big, and I'm, you know, we're from from Florida, big Gator fan.
00:05:02
Speaker
Um, loss. They were receded number one and they lost to Iowa by one fucking point, 73 to 92. They were seated. One point, one fucking point, not even an overtime by one on man. fuck point So Florida, it's a one game thing. So Florida is eliminated.
00:05:21
Speaker
Fuck. Uh, you had one job, Florida. However, on the plus side, okay, St. John's, which is based here in Queens, in Jamaica, Queens, which is, I live in Jamaica, so it's not far from me. They were seeded fifth, and they beat so number four seeded Kansas, 67 to 65. So st johns St. John's goes on to play, um which a team they rarely beat, they're going to play Duke on the 27th, which is three days.
00:05:50
Speaker
So what I am, know say what? You know what I want to eat right now? why why What?
Local Landmarks and Changes

00:06:09
Speaker
I'm a little upset about that now. Let's go St. John's. Let's go St. John's. was going to say, I was like, and it's probably the most disgusting fast food chain. Ooh, that's a good question. What, what is your least favorite fast food chain?
00:06:23
Speaker
My least favorite? Like one that you're like, Oh, I wouldn't like act. And here's the thing. I
Airport Wait Times and TSA Humor
00:06:29
Speaker
don't have like a very strict palate. I can eat almost anything. You're the only thing I really don't like Ron is I don't like pickles. I don't like olives. That's okay. And and I've tried really You don't like briny things. You don't like briny things. i guess not yeah the closest i've ever come is pickled onions on like i forgot least favorite fast food chain yeah huh because you know when i go to a fast food chain which i rarely do it's like okay there's something from every place that
Thoughts on Reaction Videos to Comedy
00:06:57
Speaker
i like ahha like so there's nothing i like i know what i'm getting if i go there um
00:07:04
Speaker
Now, it may be my least favorite, but it doesn't mean I don't like it. And I'm going to get a lot of people listen to this. going to get a lot of shit for it. But I'm going to say my least favorite. Even though it is probably top dog, my least favorite.
00:07:21
Speaker
Yeah, you know what? I'm i' i'm going to go through my head. I'm I'm going to go with. OK, it's not top dog. I was going to say McDonald's, but I had an intermonologue in my head. Yeah, i don't say McDonald's.
Recording Stand-Up Sets
00:07:33
Speaker
Probably Burger King. Okay. I can give you that. And I have nothing against Burger King. Burger King, the Whoppers are good. I don't dislike them. They do the impossible, which I commend them for drawing a vegan option.
00:07:44
Speaker
But I, um yeah, Burger King is probably my least favorite. I believe they started in Florida. So that's a little, ah I didn't know that. Yeah. I think they started in Florida. Wow. Did you know they're called Hungry Jacks only in Australia? In Australia. Because I assume because of the King aspect that they didn't want to. cause Maybe. i don't know. That's what I'm guessing. ah Yeah. Burger King, probably my least favorite. Yeah. It just doesn't do it for me.
00:08:06
Speaker
um I
Tripod Misunderstanding
00:08:07
Speaker
was going to say, i think mine is again, I kind of, I went, I went here last time i was in Florida, but not the last time, but one of the most recent times. And I left feeling like, oh, that's kind of gross, but I kind of like want to give it another chance. ah Long John Silver's.
00:08:23
Speaker
Long John Silver's, okay, their hush puppies are phenomenal. You cannot deny the fact that they're hush puppies. Right, they have like that, yeah, they have the hush puppies, which you can't deny. I mean, considering they are a chicken and seafood, primarily seafood fast food chain, and they've succeeded for so long, like them and Captain D's, I gotta give them credit.
Comedy Clubs in New York
00:08:44
Speaker
I've never had Captain D's. One just opened up and not just open up in Spring Hill, but recent chains that open up in Spring Hill since I only visit. Oh, Captain D's. That's not a recent opening up. That's a coming back.
00:08:56
Speaker
Really? Captain D's used to be on the corner of, for those Spring Hillians that listen to this, on Hearth Road and Mariner Boulevard. It's now a Chase Bank, but it's right by where it's now a Chase Bank. But it used to be Bobby Socks. Do you remember Bobby Socks? No, no. It used to be like a kind of a fifty style diner kind of thing. But before all that, it was a Captain D's.
00:09:20
Speaker
Well, where it is
Critique of Reaction Videos
00:09:21
Speaker
now, it's like near Four Corners now. Yes. Now near Four Corners. Do you remember in that? I think it was the same spot. There was a place called Taco John's.
00:09:31
Speaker
Yeah. So Taco John's is what became the Burger King. Okay, it was the Burger King. It was the Burger King. I remember Taco John's was the first time I ever had tater tots because they had tater tots. And i it it I was a child. And I'm like, these are fucking incredible.
00:09:47
Speaker
Who? Wow. This new product c called a tater tot. It was Taco John's. Then it became a Burger King. And now it's a Captain D's. Yeah, I just passed that. Also did not know that that Dunkin' Donuts right there moved. I'm sorry, people
Nostalgic Music Reflections
00:09:59
Speaker
who don't know. know. Did not know that Dunkin' Donuts moved.
00:10:01
Speaker
And it was such a staple, too. Like, I loved it. I liked it being there. And now it's in this its own building, I assume, because it's Probably the same owner. It's probably still the same guy. He was my boss three years ago. but on okay.
00:10:13
Speaker
Well, funny enough, the the Burger King, we're talking about Spring Hill stuff now. Burger King on 19, if you go to it now, you will see the shell of its former self because it used to be at another building. So there's literally a Burger King and then next to it, an empty fucking Burger King.
00:10:30
Speaker
Like, I assume because it's cheaper to I don't know. and and I don't know. I guess it's cheaper to build instead Literally like a block away. It's not like got better location. If you're ever in Spring Hill, check out the Pink Dinosaur. That's all I got to say. Oh, yeah. If you're ever in Spring Hill, guys, check out the Burger King. You'll love it. out the Pink Dinosaur.
00:10:47

Yanni and Kenny G Reminiscence
00:11:18
Speaker
dealt with it too bad as you know a flight attendant i have not dealt with it too bad um But ah yeah, that it's it's been crazy. Like, I think i think Houston is like 240 minutes wait time. Whoa. Yeah, it's in insane. And this is Houston. The um I think it's it's the IAH airport code, not the the other airport. So, yeah. Did you catch my joke? No, i didn't.
00:11:40
Speaker
I said, we have a problem. You said Houston. I said, we have a problem. Shoot. Anyway. Anyway, Tom Hanks. Yes. You know, whatever. we have Anyway, Robert. Yeah. So, so we Houston, we do have a problem. Yeah. Yeah. There we go.
00:11:54
Speaker
Absolutely nuts. and you know, ice is there now at these airports. So that's another dilemma. Can't afford, can't afford the TSA, but ice. On the other hand, you pay them. Yeah, sure. I always said, here's the thing. technical is The same Department of Homeland Security. right same I don't know. but I've actually i don't know if I've asked this question on the podcast before, but I always wondered. Remember when they had like the giant sign on ah bonus? It's like 50 grand or something. I think we did talk about this, but ah they're not getting it now. Right.
00:12:24
Speaker
I assume not. Yeah. and I was like, why don't
Family Ice Cream Business Memories
00:12:27
Speaker
we just sign up and then like do a shitty job and then they fire us and then there we walk away with our bonus. I don't know. Like, did you find any ah undocumented people here? No, I didn't see anyone.
00:12:39
Speaker
No, everyone's traveling. Everyone has their documents. Yeah. Yeah. so yeah. um But ah yeah, that's, that's crazy. I know that we talked a little bit about the wait times last time. I guess I just dodged it. Cause I, you know, I got home from Chicago not too long ago. You did just dodge it. Yeah, you
Famous Comedians and Impressions
00:12:58
Speaker
did.
00:12:58
Speaker
Yeah. So um that TSA pre-check guys, I can't recommend it enough. um But something I wanted to ask you as well. Ask away Robert. So,
00:13:10
Speaker
Do you know, are you familiar with just reaction videos in general? Of course I am. Okay. um There's been, it's not, i don't know if it's necessarily new, but there's been a new wave of reaction videos for standup comedy and where they'll watch a standup set and they'll kind of give their reaction to it, obviously.
00:13:30
Speaker
And I'd say most of the time it's pretty like positive, but like, how do you feel about a live reaction and like someone analyzing like, Oh, I, okay. See what he did there is blah. I don't know. Do you, I feel like standup is such an art form that should be more organic and not really, not something that you have to analyze too closely. It should just be enjoyed, but I don't know.
00:13:55
Speaker
Let me know. As a comedian. As a comedian, you can like, yeah i yeah i guess you can analyze. i You can pretty much analyze anything, right? I mean, you can break it down. You can analyze anything. You it with singers, too. um Not just comics.
Political Figure Impressions
00:14:08
Speaker
No, but like to analyze a stand like, i mean. you have anything better to do with your life? Yeah. I mean, really, to analyze a community like, oh, see, they took that joke. to See, that's called a callback. Yeah, no shit. We know it's called a callback. That's why I did it.
00:14:22
Speaker
Because it was funny. Because it's been proven to work. That's why. Yeah. um there isn't There is a structure and an art to doing stand-up, set-up, punchline, you know, act-outs. There's a way to do comedy. But like you said, it should be enjoyed organically. Mm-hmm.
00:14:42
Speaker
you know Watching online great, but a reaction video, I mean, ah the only thing i think it' i think it's Gen Z not wanting to work and just
Cold Jokes Segment Introduction
00:14:50
Speaker
looking for ways to make money. i was doing and because no really joe in gooddos to them And you know what? If watching stand-up comedy can become my job, that would be cool. but so i don't know if i can It's unfortunate that these people, like i like I would probably get famous by watching stand-up comedy and reacting to it versus
Reading and Reacting to Cold Jokes
00:15:11
Speaker
me actually being a comedian.
00:15:13
Speaker
That's the sadness. how How are like the clubs that you go to um that you do stand-up at, how yeah are they cool with you filming your own sets? Usually, yeah. okay yeah when I've never seen a club tell any comedian not to film.
00:15:28
Speaker
Okay. um Because, oh man, that might be something we should talk about off
Crumble Cookie Experience

Yeah, probably. um Man, this is why we got to get our Patreon activated because you get all the extra tea behind the scenes. All positive, though. We're not like all positive. But yeah, as to back to the reaction stand up videos, but I mean, or action with all the shit that's online, there's better stuff to look at than watch somebody watch somebody.
00:18:37
Speaker
Right. i like I understand reaction videos like PewDiePie, like doing stuff for video games and things like that. Like that, I understand. But um I don't know. Watching somebody watch comedy.
00:18:48
Speaker
I mean, idiocracy is becoming more and more of a documentary
Listener Questions Segment Introduction

Hell yeah. yeah I mean, the parents controlled the radio. that And i you know I grew up with classic rock, Rolling Stones, ah you know Aerosmith, but you know all those fucking bands.
00:19:56
Speaker
And yeah that's that's that yeah, we had radio. Now it's like they want to they're they're selective of what they want to listen to. I'm going to go listen to this. You get to choose. Now it's like, you know, how often do people just turn the dial and put the radio on? It doesn't happen anymore. Except maybe in a car. That's it.
00:20:14
Speaker
Yeah. like And also my dad used to listen to classical music. like I'm talking about via just violins. My godfather listened to classical music. Yeah. um Also my parents were into, do you remember Yeah.
00:20:27

Yeah. um Yeah, ah my dad knew Charlie Daniels. um Really? because he used to do a... So, people don't know, my family owned an ice cream business for like a while, and we used to do charity benefits ah with Kenny Rogers. Your family owned an ice cream business?
00:21:37
Speaker

00:21:49
Speaker

00:22:01
Speaker
But there was an ice cream shop right next to a subway and stuff. And that was my parents shop. Oh, cool. Yeah. So um I don't know why I got so heavy in middle school, but I just gained a lot of cherries Jubilee again. I know.
00:22:16
Speaker
Yeah. I love Spumoni. And I still love ice cream. Like you think I, I'm not tired of it. You can't, I get Joe Biden's obsession for ice cream. It's like the old man alone. It's all he cares about. It's his happiness.
00:22:29
Speaker

00:30:02
Speaker
You know what ah Chicago kind of reminded me of? It kind of reminded me of, like, Brooklyn in general. Like, all of Chicago. Like, I don't know. I could kind of see that, but yet I don't at the same time. Yeah, yeah. It's not exactly... Brooklyn is Brooklyn. There's no place like Brooklyn.
00:30:18

Literally dying from your cold jokes. Dying. oh Dying. We're all dying, but let's not get too dark. Um, Uh, well, this is a good transition. Good. You did exactly what I wanted you to do. it Yes. Um, I have, I'm going to read this aloud. I have not read it its entirety. Do you know anything about this story? I know nothing about it, but i this is it here's the headline guys, professional cornhole player with no arms and legs in jail for shooting someone.
00:31:31
Speaker
Yep. Oh, sorry. That wasn't from MSN. Yeah, I know. Right. Fuck. This is from MSN.com. A Maryland man who made history in the American League cornhole as its first quadruple amputee competitor has been arrested did after authorities accused him of fatally shooting a passenger during an argument while driving.
00:31:54
Speaker
And you know what I have to say? bet you that passenger deserved it. The 40s have identified the suspect as Dayton James Weber, 27 years old, of La Plata, Maryland, and the victim as 27-year-old Roderick Michael Wells. Wait, did the victim, the victim died?
00:32:11
Speaker
Yes. faal Oh, I take back what I said, but ah I thought he just got hurt um because I don't want i don't want to cheer for someone who gets murdered. ah But I'm like, what happened so bad? that do They caused.
00:32:23
Speaker
So apparently I'm just kind of skimming over this right now. They pull. Let's see. i Yeah, I guess it's just a little traffic thing. And ah they did not disclose a motive. But yeah, had he hat but how do you use his mouth?
00:32:39
Speaker
and No, so there were actually ah other videos. He's got like... Oh, this is going to sound so awful. You're going to say nubs, aren't you? No, I wasn't going to say that exactly, but he's got like... He's got a point on his... Where he was... You know, his arms were cut off where he's able to pull a trigger.
00:32:58
Speaker
Oh... I don't know, not his penis. It's on his what his arms or what's OK. OK. Yeah, he's got like a little ah thing. I'm not going to call it that. But it's like if if you think if you saw that guy in the shooting range, wouldn't you be like, you know what? Let's ah let's leave.
00:33:13
Speaker
But my whole thing was my cat. But my whole thing is like yeah he was driving and he shot someone. Right. And he has no arms, no legs.
00:33:27
Speaker
Mm hmm. What is my cat doing? My cat wants to be part of the show. She's right here. Your cat can join the show. For everyone ah watching, we're on YouTube and Spotify right now. So by all means, guys, watch his cat if he appears.
00:33:44
Speaker

00:33:57
Speaker
Yeah. So
00:34:00
Speaker
basically the moral the story is don't let anyone tell you you can't. Right. That's, that's the moral of the story. If you want to kill someone, you should do it is what you're saying.
00:34:12
Speaker
No, no. I just, you know, You know, he's a professional cornhole player. Apparently he's very good. You know, don't tell him he can't do anything. You know, don't tell me I can't murder somebody because I have no arms and legs.
00:34:23
Speaker
He's a professional. i have to watch this guy play cornhole because I'm, you know, I'm as i as good as an ex-drunk He takes his arms and throws him like, it's impressive. It's impressive. Now that Ron, for those of you couldn't see Ron's sorry if that wasen but i was but that was the best thing I could do. That the craziest. I showed my elbows and made them look like I had no, yeah.
00:34:45
Speaker
That was the craziest family double dare physical challenge ever saw. yeah but that's real That's the home game for some people. That's home game. um Mark Summers is like, okay, cut the cameras. Oh, God.
00:34:58
Speaker
But, um well, I'm sorry to hear that about the yeah it's just wild. It's like, oh, God, no arms, no legs, shot somebody? Yeah. Well, how? Tell me how this happened.
00:35:09
Speaker
It sounds impossible, but you know what else is also impossible, Ron? um What's impossible? Like, the power, like, if you could have any superpower, what would it be?
00:35:20
Speaker
If I had a superpower, what would it be? Yeah, which one would you want? And I've thought this through multiple, multiple times. And my superpower would be the ability to fluently understand every language on the planet. Oh, that's going happen with like metaglasses at some point. Probably. What a waste. No, but I mean, just to be able to walk into any place and speak the language fluently and not have any like, I mean, my whole thing is like I just to be able to meet all those other people. You want to talk to more people?
00:35:50
Speaker
I think it would be cool if I just walked up and started speaking a random language that nobody expected me to speech. And I was like, holy shit, how do you know this? I'm like, I'm like, get the fuck out of here. Well, why do you ask this question?
00:36:00
Speaker
Oh, so ah because if you're familiar with FEMA, ah I am. Yeah. So one of the top official people at FEMA was on a podcast and he explained how wasn't this?
00:36:15
Speaker
Yeah, he now was on this one. He actually has the power to teleport. I'm sorry, what? Yeah. So, you know, I actually read this headline and I just skimmed over it because I'm like, nope.
00:36:28
Speaker
Yeah. So Greg Phillips, um he ah he's a far right conspiracy theorist surprise um at the at FEMA. He claims to have teleported to a Waffle House. Now, as far as I know, I think he's claimed to have teleported twice. and why are to go And my argument is, you know what? What?
00:36:50
Speaker
ah You know what? Like, if you're going to a Waffle House, you're probably drunk. And you know what? Maybe I've teleported to a Waffle House before, too. But yeah if you put it that way, yeah, I probably teleported to a Waffle House before myself.
00:37:03
Speaker
Like with mother and covered, baby, smothered and covered. The first time he said he teleported and he landed in a ditch. Also a good spot when you're wasted. So first time yeah it's never like, oh, I teleported and I was drinking a latte in a Starbucks. Like, no, it's always like where drunk people end up when they black out.
00:37:22
Speaker
um I teleported and I was on my friend's couch with ah with a trash trash can next to it. I teleported to a poolside, the poolside on a chair.
00:37:36
Speaker
and woke up wet wow yeah so i don't know what happened someone teleported urine in my pants that's pretty yeah funny i don't know who put that there maybe they peed on me who put this shit in my pants i was so drunk i pissed all over myself yeah i was like not i was 19 years was 18 years old i ah just graduated high school i just broke up with my girlfriend i was free and i made a complete fool of myself Yeah. And my mom thought it was funny to put a bottle of Jack Daniels to my nose. I almost puked all over the fucking wall. Oh, God.
00:38:06
Speaker
I've never peed myself, thankfully. Yeah, that was the only time I pissed myself while ah drunk. However, there was one time I was drinking. And i was like in my early 20s and I woke up to go to the bathroom.
00:38:18
Speaker
And when I can't regain consciousness, I was peeing on my bed. I talked about this. Oh, yeah. OK, that was fun. Like, oh, God, what did I just do? Oh, yeah. morning Well, and of course, in this podcast, they never dig any deeper. Anytime someone makes a wild claim, they're never like, what were you doing beforehand? Like where it like which ditch like like were you drinking? No one ever asked these questions. So he's like, oh, wow, that's crazy.
00:38:45
Speaker
Moving on. Moving on. You're saying you teleported. What are you talking about? or did I want to know how you did this. I want the technology. And um there goes airline travel.
00:38:55
Speaker
That's pretty much it. I know. and And apparently he can't control ah his his claim was that he teleported and he was on the phone. Oh, yeah. That was the first time he was on the phone and he teleported. And I'm like, OK, who are you talking to? Did the phone?
00:39:10
Speaker
Did you drop your cell phone? Did it teleport with you? Why did your clothes teleport with you? Why was I mean, if you're not body, and would you or did you teleport back? How did you get back? Where was this ditch?
00:39:21
Speaker
Yeah. Why? Why are you randomly teleporting and not realizing you're teleporting? that's That's the question. Because like you're not if you're not in control of your teleportations, dude, I see a doctor.
00:39:34
Speaker
Yeah, I'm never going to let you drive anywhere. No, I will never let you drive the car. pilot I don't want to pilot to randomly teleport. What if you teleport right in the middle? No. yeah Absolutely fucking not.
00:39:45
Speaker
Also, yeah, I would ask, like, why did your clothes teleport? Why did yeah why did they get to go with you? What's teleporting? Is it the aura around you? Like, can I take my cat? Yeah, that that's why I always like um made fun of like those left behind movies when people would get raptured because their clothes would be left behind, but their clothes would be folded nicely, which means that there is a spiritual way to fold clothes.
00:40:07
Speaker
And I'm like, so God has a very particular way of folding clothes. I want to know. He's next to godliness, Robert. yeah That's a good one. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So I'm always at, I like, but of course he was on a podcast that like the other person totally bought it for. So he would never be on our podcast because we would question him with logic. Is that what you're saying? ah Yeah. Yeah. Definitely. can see you losing your shit. Like how the fuck did you do that?
00:40:35
Speaker
Yeah. You know, no, du there's a reason you need to explain this. that Morty, you need to, uh, I, yeah. Anytime someone has like an outrageous claim like that, I, I have to, I have to like, can I take the cream with me, brother? I get the cream. yeah they Um, but, uh, it's kind of like, um, did I tell you, I guess, um, we could do this and then we have a penetrating question, but just really quickly, did I, did I cover that? I went on a timeshare meeting.
00:41:05
Speaker
No. So when I was in Chicago, part of the deal. Sweet home Chicago. Chicago ah was ah i had to go to a timeshare meeting, which I was kind of excited about.
00:41:19
Speaker
i was a little bit excited. It's like the ones where they don't make you. They don't let you leave kind of thing. Like you're just stuck there for hours. It was one on one, which sucks. Oh, I thought it was going group thing.
00:41:30
Speaker
um But I was free coffee. Yeah, I actually pocketed two Diet Cokes. I had one in my pocket, and then the lady was like, oh, do you want a soda? I'm like, oh, ah yeah, I guess I'll i'll take one. you know um But we were going get a free cruise out of it. And so i you know you always get some kind of prize, right? Well, they tell you, yeah.
00:41:51
Speaker
And but I was kind of excited because I am very aware that it's a scam and there's no way they're convincing me to get it, even if they're like, we'll give it to you for a dollar. It's never happening because I also like, ah you know, I did my research on time, which I hate saying that I did my research. So, i know but that's I mean, I think you're yeah it applies here. Yeah. Yeah.
00:42:12
Speaker
Basically, you're trapped for life. And so when they asked me, it's like a gym. search Yeah. Well, yeah. yeah ah John Oliver, if anyone watches last week tonight. Oh, great. show loved great He does a great segment on timeshares because not only are timeshares scams, but there's timeshare exit companies that help you get out of timeshares. They are also scams. So there's no way out. You're just running from nothing. The only way you can get it.
00:42:39
Speaker
The only way I think I know how to get rid of a timeshare is ah it's kind of like the tape from the ring. Someone else has to take it from you. Someone else has to watch the video.
00:42:50
Speaker
Seven days. Seven days. And there are literally people on a website selling their timeshares for zero dollars. They just want it gone. there I don't care who takes it.
00:43:01
Speaker
Please just take my hand. I mean, it's not a scam if you want it, right? Well, that's the thing. Like, it's also, you got to tell them, like, do you know what you want? Like, what do you think you're getting here? do you you can out? No, why is it so difficult to get out of a timeshare?
00:43:15
Speaker
It's like their contract. It's for life. It's, it's, you can't, it's a bounding contract. Um, so you're paying all this money, but then there are timeshares that are even worse where like, if I were to give this any, any leeway, it was probably one of the quote unquote better ones.
00:43:31
Speaker
Um, but there are timeshares that like, you only have a very particular day of the year that you can use it. yeahs And then, I'm sure. Yeah. But this place was a giant company and they had a bajillion timeshares. So they so so part of the timeshare meeting was they had like this digital screen on the table and they showed me the map of the world and all the timeshares. And they had a lot of them. They had I probably could go wherever I wanted at any point.
00:43:56
Speaker
But I just noticed that on the world map, there was nothing in Russia. Russia was. Oh, so fuck that. don't know. If I can't go to St. Petersburg, I'm not going. Right. So I was just like, I just kind of kept trolling them and I was like, I don't know. I kind of wish that you don't have any in Russia. Like i kind of kind of want to go like as the Russians would say easy knock weed, which means go fuck yourself. Right. So I kind of was trolled them with that. And then, you know, they were talking about like how important a timeshare is. And I trolled them and I was like, yeah, you know, because if you think about it, time, time share the times sharere is. Yeah, because was like, timeshares, it's kind of the time you share with each other.
00:44:35
Speaker
And I'm sure they fucking hated you. Oh, they hated me, cause especially at the end, especially at the end, because was your lady friend there with you as well? oh yeah. Yeah. And and she's she's not she's not like an asshole like me. Like, you know, she's a nice person. The few times yeah she's like, ah she's one of those nice people.
00:44:53
Speaker
Yeah. Yeah. But at the end, though, they really try to like, you know, hook the deal. And I was just honest. I'm like, honestly, we're just here for the cruise. Like, we're never usually you what ends with it. Yeah. Yeah. I was like, we we're never going to be interested in something like this. And I think I'm selling the story like I was I'm not like this much of a dick in it. I but i was just very I was very honest. And they try to, like, give us a trial run. And I was like, honestly, we're never going to. I mean, were any was any aspects of it appealing at all?
00:45:22
Speaker
Kind of, I'll be honest, but you're in it for life. And so when they asked me. it's a place I really love, I would do it. Sure. Well, here's the thing. you're youre But you're paying a yearly, you're paying all this money every year. You pay every year for that space during that time period. Yes, I know.
00:45:40
Speaker
Oh, man. And then. ah ah Well, if I wasn't homeless for the two months out of the year, then, yeah, I'd pay for it. Yeah. See, I just i would just get a hotel. I like hotels, so I don't know. I would just hotels are nice. But, you know, you know, as a flight attendant, I'm in hotels all the fucking time. So that's true. You're probably over it.
00:45:59
Speaker
Yeah. um My bed is my favorite hotel. Yeah, I'm sure. um But yeah, I just wasn't interested. And I also like when we entered, she asked me, do I know anything about timeshares? And I said, I don't because I was like, you know, I even told my girlfriend, I'm like, let's just go in.
00:46:16
Speaker
Pretend we don't know anything about it because I feel that at the second you like give them something, like even if I said like, oh, I think they're kind of scams. I feel like they'll be ready for that.
00:46:27
Speaker
they'll Then they'll turn their... sure they have their their plan into like well we gotta convince this guy who thinks we're a scam that we're not a scam even though we're a scam yeah so i didn't want to give him shit i was just like i don't know anything about timeshares i think it's like a place you stay don't fucking know i don't know i've been drinking sazerax all day i know I got a tall glass of DeZerona with cranberry and, yeah um, yeah tastes like ah you happen to drink a DeZerona cranberry. What's in that diet? a Um, but then at the end, uh, when I, when I said, well, i just don't want to be signed on for life. I could see that she was a bit like surprised. Cause I did say earlier, I knew nothing about it. So it worked. And then, uh, I could tell that if I know nothing about it and I tell you, I don't want to be signed on for life. Why are you surprised?
00:47:19
Speaker
Yeah. Also, we totally like stretch the truth on like how much income we have because we're ah we're like, let's sound as poor as we have seven figures in our account. Oh, yeah. ah Yeah. Just be like, we can barely survive. Like, so because like if you come in like with Mr. Moneybags, like, yeah, they're going to.
00:47:39
Speaker
They're going show you the creme de la creme of time Exactly. So I'm like, let's seem like you can have this place in Manhattan on New Year's Eve. Oh, really? oh like if it was a timeshare for me personally, it'd probably be New Orleans.
00:47:52
Speaker
But I'm I'm actually thinking crazy random. Maybe it's because I just turned 39 randomly just getting like an apartment in New Orleans, a furnished apartment, just for the fuck of it. I'd rather you do that because guess what? I would rather do that than do timeshare because I can get out of it after a year. Exactly. Yeah, absolutely. Exactly.
00:48:10
Speaker
But yeah, that's my little rant about – but I had fun. Anytime there's something – anytime i'm I'm aware of something scammy that I kind of get excited about it because I just know they're you're never going to convince me to get it. It's not going to work on me.
00:48:25
Speaker
um Not going happen. Yeah, it's not going to happen. That's why I love – When people make crazy claims, I love to, like, I don't know. But I don't push people as much as I used to. I'm just like, I let people be crazy. You're so nice now, Robert. You really are. I'm a changed man, you know? ah But with that said, um we do have a penetrating question. We have a penetrating question? We do. And so for those who don't well, let's play the jingle first, guys. We're going to get um into the segment called Penetrating Questions.
00:48:58
Speaker
Yeah.
00:49:07
Speaker
What is a penetrating question, Ron? Basically, a penetrating question is just your thought, comment, question, or you know shit you want to hear us talk about. That's all it really is. could be anything. It's completely anonymous.
00:49:20
Speaker
You can write into us on Instagram. Instagram.com. And we got a link in our bio. You just send in a question and boom, shakalaka, you're in it. Boom, shakalaka. Ron, I... brought it Yes. I think this one is kind of, it's it's directed towards both of us, but I think you're going more of a take on it because of your love for a certain product.
00:49:44
Speaker
Okay. Okay. Would you like me to read you the question? Can you, yeah, read it all though. Read it all of it. Well, yeah, I'm going to read the person. like we Okay.
00:49:56
Speaker
Susie McGill. h Okay. Probably a fake name. Probably. And a very simple question. KFC or Popeyes? Hmm. The Battle of Battles.
00:50:09
Speaker
McGill, you think would be ah you think they're a McDonald's secret agent? McGill, yeah, maybe they are related to McDonald's. Very possible. Very, very possible. My favorite is obviously the McChicken. McChicken. Yeah, McChicken's No, they yeah they have like a better version where the crispy chicken deluxe was always superior.
00:50:28
Speaker
Yeah, they're trying to was affordable. That was the. Yeah, that was so. So this is a good question. And I actually did a few years ago. ah i did a taste test where me and some side by side comparison, huh? Yeah, we went to a bunch of places, went to Burger King. We went to McDonald's, went to all got all the chicken sandwiches, Chick-fil-A, everything.
00:50:48
Speaker
And the winner as far as these two go was KFC. Chick-fil-A was a close second. um I think it's that homophobia that just adds a little extra spice to it. You know what mean? It's just like, yeah, I feel like if Chick-fil-A was woke, I mean, I don't agree with them, but I, I, it's a good chicken sandwich.
00:51:08
Speaker
Yeah, it was. But um I remember I got a Popeye's chicken sandwich during the really remember the hype where people were like out of waiting in line. And yep. um And I thought it was not good at all. Like not good.
00:51:21
Speaker
And I thought it was pretty good when I when I had it. I'm thinking maybe I just got a bad one. But KFC, i I have been too greasy. Sometimes there have been one time where I got it was way too greasy and I got sick. Yeah.
00:51:33
Speaker
But it's hard to say now because I actually went to KFC recently and I went to the most disgusting KFC I've ever went to. And it was in kind of Koreatown area. And it was a two story.
00:51:45
Speaker
No, was in L.A. And it was like this two story KFC. They had an elevator and everything, but I think it was like a convert. It clearly wasn't like a converted building. It wasn't like they didn't build this to be a KFC because I swear it was like a church or something is weird.
00:52:00
Speaker
Disgusting like it it tasted gross. None of the tables were clean. It was just gross everywhere inside and out. I was so. Huh? I said no bueno.
00:52:11
Speaker
Yeah, no bueno at all. um So I'm at a... I don't know. i I still want to lean KFC, but I think you got to go to a good one. So... Let's just say that they are... They're good stores. that we're We're comparing two good stores.
00:52:30
Speaker
Okay. A good Popeyes and a good KFC. Yes.
00:52:35
Speaker
I would go...
00:52:39
Speaker
I would probably go KFC. Okay, yeah. I would probably, their spice blend is, I think, superior. However, Popeye's kind of has the crunch, I feel, sometimes. Yeah. and when you throw in the spicy factor that Popeye's gives you the option, that kind of makes it challenging, but I think I'm going to go KFC, personally. Okay, okay I'm going to go KFC as well. When I've had Popeyes like tenders, I feel like it's 80% breading and like barely any chicken. I can't eat any of it anymore, or I'm not yeah really supposed to. you know I don't want to get sick, so I don't.
00:53:12
Speaker
right um But I would, add yeah, i KFC, hands down. I wish they would bring back their grilled stuff again, because now you know i would just like to eat the grilled.
00:53:23
Speaker
Yeah. Because fried is very hard to come by. That's true. But yeah, no, KFC. I think KFC. KFC, yeah I'm going to go KFC as well. And yeah, so today, though, um as we get into the final segment, ah we got a us for the fire oven beer, which we'll will do the little jingle for. um We're going to cider territory this time. going cider. We're going cider today.
00:53:51
Speaker

00:54:38
Speaker
So, but hey, again I love me side a good cider. Even before I got diagnosed with this shit, I do. I've always liked a good cider. My go to is Magnus. Okay. Magnus is a good one.
00:54:51
Speaker
Good Irish cider. I think it's a little too sweet, but I like it. You know, it's clear. Typical cider. Look, you know, it looks sexy. Roast.
00:55:02
Speaker
Oh, that is good. It is good. it's kind of I do like a drier cider, but the semi-dry or semi-sweet, I guess, you that balance between sweetness and dryness, very nice. And 6.5, that's normal, right?
00:55:14
Speaker
No. No, 6.5 is a little high for cider. I mean, ciders... Oh, for cider. Commercial ciders tend to be around... I don't know, like maybe about five. I think Magner's is a 4.5 kind of thing, so it's on the lighter side, which I prefer.
00:55:27
Speaker
ah But I was in Pittsburgh, and I had this, I forget where the cider was from, but the cider was like 8%. And they give to like they give it to you in like a little like Delirium Tremens type glass. And I'm like, um they gave it to me, I'm like, oh fuck, this is strong. I look it up, I'm like, oh fuck, you know two in. I'm like, oh shit, I'm feeling this. Oh wow. So yeah, yeah um I do like a hard cider, but you know.
00:55:50
Speaker
Do you think that one would ah get hung over more from a cider? Is it higher in sugar? it can't Yeah, it can be, especially the sweeter ones. yeah so you can Years ago, um my dear friend Victor and I, our bar that we go to, he does trivia on Wednesdays. I do bingo on Tuesdays. Okay.
00:56:09
Speaker
he um Just a little plug there. ah he um They were doing a pint of Angry Orchard Cider. And within the cider, they put in a shot of Fireball.
00:56:22
Speaker
Oh, that sounds... The Angry Balls. And they were selling it for like, huh I think it was like six bucks. Wow. It was a promotion for Fireball. This is when Fireball became like all the rage kind of thing.
00:56:35
Speaker
um Him and I probably drank about eight each. Wow. I woke up, we were beyond fucked up. And yeah i i think I think I threw up.
00:56:47
Speaker
I think I threw up. My wife was, i think, mad at me. think it was one of the times I threw up and she was mad at me. ah And um I woke up the next morning with ah one of the worst hangovers. Like it was, I think it was a two-day hangover. It was fucked Young listeners out there, when you get older, two-day hangovers happen.
00:57:04
Speaker
Hangovers become multiple days. Yeah, sometimes this actually happened to me the other day because got I got invited. I drank the other day. i got invited to a birthday party.
00:57:17
Speaker
It was an open bar in Long Beach. I had um the open bar in Long Beach, no open bar in Long Beach. And it was great. And actually, I do like Long Beach. And um I woke up kind of with a headache and that was fine. But then um I and I thought it was good. But then as the day went on, I got like extremely tired. Like I felt like just super tired. And I'm like, it has to be because I drank.
00:57:46
Speaker
It has to be because I don't drink that much. So neither do I. Yeah. Yeah. Neither do I. I ah drink. I do. It is my vice. I mean, yeah, maybe I'm just not. I don't go to work world or anything like that. mean Yeah, I couldn't do that. One, i would yeah I would get fired immediately. Two, I'm a responsible adult.
