MAHD House Bar Talk
Memories, Memorabilia, and the Mayhem of Managing a Community Watering Hole
When Tex's crawfish delivery goes hilariously off-course, it's just the beginning of our jam-packed week of laughs and unexpected tales. From a crawfish boil that turns into an airport escapade to an impromptu late-night chat with wrestler Joe Marconi, we've got a story for everyone. Even the 'Bark in the Park' event, which was more "bark" than "park," left us howling with amusement. Meanwhile, we ponder the future of broadcasting as internet news stations blur the lines between traditional media and digital frontiers.
Our conversation takes a turn down tailgate memory lane, reliving the epic showdowns and cooler heroics that only true sports fans—yes, we salute you, Browns aficionados—can appreciate. Dad's awe over modern car comforts, the thrill of a good bar event, and the fever-pitch excitement of planning activities like slap contests and mechanical bull rides are all on tap in this week's episode. We're also pulling back the curtain on the wacky world of event planning, where sometimes the best-laid plans are the ones you make up on the fly.
Collectors and barflies unite as we dive into the heart and soul of community gathering spots. We share the magnetic pull of nostalgia through baseball cards and Star Wars memorabilia, balancing the books between the sentiment and the economics of collecting. As we juggle the intricacies of running a bar and supporting local talent, we reveal the family drama that can bubble up in a competitive scene. So, kick back with us; it's a wild ride through the ups and downs of daily life where every day is another chance for a great story.
We want everyone to enjoy the show and really appreciate your feed back

Good morning Sunday morning. What are we doing this morning? Anything good, nothing good, nothing. It's nice, it's nice as hell out there.
Speaker 2:This morning you can steal a motorcycle. That's what I'm going to do. Quiet that one down.
Speaker 1:I thought that was you. That's got to be you, it ain't me. Oh, that's me. I'm sorry, it ain't me, it's got to be you, it's got to be you over there. So yesterday was pretty cool, huh, the event we did yesterday.
Speaker 2:Actually, I enjoyed it way more than I thought I was.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it was pretty nice. I think everybody here would have liked that. Yeah, I'm so surprised nobody showed up. Well, they had that crawfish boil. They were doing down the road at Ogle's house, tex was doing a crawfish boil. They were doing down the road at ogle's house, tex was doing a crawfish boil and, uh, the thing is with this, with this crawfish boil, the thing was that he, uh, he didn't have no crawfish. Well, what happened was tex ordered the crawfish from the same place that he always orders it from, you know the place that we got it last year.
Speaker 1:And they turned around and they come through and put a thing on Facebook and said, oh, we're not going to be able to get it out this week. And it's like what do you mean? Yeah, I mean he paid for it already. You know what I mean. You're expecting it to come in, you know. And he got a hold of him, he called him. He's like hey, what's going on? How can that? You know I already paid for it. How do I get my crawfish?
Speaker 1:So they flew it to him. Southwest flew it to him, but they flew it to Chicago on accident. West flew it to them, but they flew it to chicago on accident. So then I guess they should. They changed it up and flipped it over to to hopkins, said they sent it real quick to hopkins and, uh, burt had to go to the airport and actually get it from the airport. That's crazy, that is. That's absolutely insane. I mean, what the hell? So they were getting crawfish. The crawfish come in last night we were probably about 830 at night. We were there because we had the guy interviewed yesterday. That was shit too. All that audio and stuff that went out yesterday sucked. It was horrible.
Speaker 2:It really did. They didn't have no internet service there at all.
Speaker 1:No, and I was going off my phone. It was lagged out and that mixer board was auto-tuning my voice if you listen to it. Oh, it's horrible. It was driving me insane.
Speaker 2:Well, we got some bugs. We still got to work out.
Speaker 1:Yeah, definitely some bugs to work out, no question about that. But so, anyways, the interview that I did yesterday with Marcus right after me and you were on Marcus ended up coming up to the bar and drank here and then we went down and ate some boil down there and we actually left, me and Amanda, because Dylan was sitting with Mike all night and we had to get back to Dylan and we leave and I said, just hang out, everybody's cool, they're good people. So Marcus and his wife hung out. I got a text at like 3 in the morning that he had just got home. We left at like 10 last night. So he was kicking it last night for sure, straight kicking it. He had a good time, it sounds like.
Speaker 2:Yeah, everybody that we met shit. We met that wrestler. What was his name? Joe, let me see Marconi Marconi, Joe, Marconi, Joe Marconi.
Speaker 1:That was the wrestler you met yesterday.
Speaker 2:Yep.
Speaker 1:I'm getting. For some reason, I'm not liking the sound on mine today. I don't know what's going on. I think that's better, right there.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I didn't even know who he was. I'm like, I'm looking at this guy like man. He looks familiar, yeah, and even just a stocky dude.
Speaker 1:It was a Browns party, it was. I mean, the thing is with that place is like, or with that thing was that everybody was like tailgaters that do it every week like consistently, yeah, yeah. And Marcus was just he's with this Channel 13 News, which he caught my attention right away because I'm like Channel 13 Cleveland, what are you talking about? I never heard of this, and so I started like talking to him and I guess it's like a internet only news station, but it's like I mean there's like 30 people, but like it's not like a little thing, it's got like a board member and that they run out and do regular news. He's in charge of the sports, you know. He does the sporting news and stuff, has press passes and it's pretty wild it's like it's pretty wild.
Speaker 1:I was shocked by it and I and I think that that's the wave of the future. Anyways, I've been saying that I mean it's just turning into that. I mean you know. But you know what? All them people were cool, real cool. Marcus, come down here, he was helping me out up here. He come up, he was all nerding out with me up here. We left his wife downstairs with Amanda. I'm sure they weren't happy. We just have to be stuck together because you guys are. But she was cool as shit, though she was just kicking it, she was drinking, she was loving the crawfish boil.
Speaker 2:I thought it was going to be a lot more pets there. I didn't see there was like four maybe.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I thought that was the whole point of it. I guess I misunderstood. I thought the whole thing was about having dogs there. I thought, I don't know.
Speaker 2:I guess it was acceptable to bring your dog, but nobody did.
Speaker 1:Yeah, when they say bark in the park, I'm thinking like bring your dog. But evidently that's just like a dog pound thing. They're saying like you know, I'm assuming, I don't know, but it was, I mean when it was benefiting the city dogs. Cleveland gives you another reason to think right right, you know what I'm saying. So I just I don't know. I just assume, yeah, I'm waiting for dogs, that you know all over the place yeah that's what I thought it was going to be. Everybody was cool, even like Amanda disappeared.
Speaker 2:I'm like where'd Amanda go? She's at a table just kicking it with the group.
Speaker 1:Yeah, they all seemed like good people. Oh yeah, every one of them. And the one guy was an announcer Right and he had the wife there.
Speaker 2:What was it he announced? What was it? The basketball league, yeah it's the ABA.
Speaker 1:Did you know that? Even existed still? I had no clue. He said they revamped it. It's called the Mentor ABA. They still use the old basketballs and stuff. Yeah, it was cool and it's like a minor league. It's a commissioned minor league team, the ABA, and he said there's one in Mentor and they play at the high schools and stuff, he said there's one in Mentor and they play at the high schools and stuff.
Speaker 2:I forget how many teams he said they got, but there was quite a few. It wasn't just a few.
Speaker 1:No, yeah, it was a real, like it was doing their thing, and I think they're involved with the NBA somehow as a minor league team. Is what he was saying? Oh, it was cool, yeah, it was pretty cool. He announces that andCon stuff. That was like which. That's not.
Speaker 1:Wrestling and Comic-Con don't do much for me. Yeah, that kind of went left on me. That's like Marcus last night and I like Star Wars. I'm a Star Wars fan. I'm not a Star Wars nerd, but I like Star Wars. I thought they were good movies growing up or whatever. But like Brandon's a Star Wars nerd, like he loves Star Wars, he's just a nerd general.
Speaker 1:Yeah, brandon is a nerd, but he didn't have a blast oh, that's why I was his spot right there, but marcus was saying that he does a podcast last night he was talking about he used to do a podcast that was a star wars themed podcast or whatever, and amanda, you seem to look at amanda's face like what the hell?
Speaker 2:it was pretty little lightsabers and shit around and stuff yeah, yeah, he.
Speaker 1:Well, he was up here. He come up here, like, I think, specifically to see the studio. That's all he really wanted to see. He come in and he's checking it out. He goes. You know, he's telling me what I should. You know what I'm, what I'm missing? He, he fixed some settings in there for me to make it smoother. That's cool. I didn't realize that it was even off. Like to me, it looks good enough you know, I mean, he knows his shit Like that, guy truly knows what he's doing.
Speaker 2:Well, you got to figure most of them, the other podcasters there there was what three plus years, yeah. What three plus three plus years, yeah. Oh yeah, for sure we got one in just a little over one.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I think Marcus was saying when he started like there was only about I forget what it was like 10% of what there is now. Yeah, broadcasting Now it's like everybody's got them or whatever. But yeah, and he went to broadcasting school. So I mean he has like way more knowledge about what I do. But he's telling me I got to get three screens in here so that when I'm video editing I'll be able to edit it better. He's telling me my computer I bought was useless. Just get rid of it. I go. But I just bought it. He goes. Good, he goes. Maybe they'll let you return it. And then I was finding out about mixer boards and stuff like that. It was cool to me, I was nerding, I was having a blast, and then I started feeling bad because I know I left amanda downstairs. Yeah, you know, I mean didn't know what his wife was even like, yet you know what I mean. But she ended up being real cool. She was. She was cool as hell.
Speaker 2:She went down there and well, a person like him, you'd imagine he'd have a cool spot.
Speaker 1:Yeah right, we went to Ogles and somebody poured some tequila or something. She was a tequila drinker and one of the girls I think she works at Dog House was over there. She tried to front and act like she took the shot with everyone else and she had it sitting off to the side. She called her out. His wife was like no, no she didn't take hers.
Speaker 1:It was pretty funny. We were laughing pretty good. It was a good time. It was a real good time. I wish I would have got some crawfish, that would have been cool, but I didn't get it. I got crab legs and stuff. I went up like almost two pounds yesterday between tacos and crawfish. I didn't dip nothing in butter though I thought I might be okay, but no, I still went up two pounds. Potatoes, corn my lips were burning. He had that shit so spicy. I mean it was hot, hot, hot. And the thing is I thought, well, tomorrow's probably not going to be very busy here, you know, because everybody's down at Ogles for them. It was packed up here.
Speaker 2:They had that van. It was pretty cool, that ambulance.
Speaker 1:The ambulance. Yeah, that was real cool. That was lifted up. I got pictures of it. I'll get it posted. I got pictures of it to show everybody. I'm sure if you go tailgating you've probably seen it, I would imagine. I mean, the inside of it was awesome. He made a food cart out of it.
Speaker 2:It was nice.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it was real cool. He had like warmers. I mean, he had that thing set up. Yeah, it was nice, it was cool. I think that that would be an event that everybody, like I said here, would have absolutely loved. If they would just go to it, they would have loved it, and that cooler was amazing dude.
Speaker 2:Yeah, that grizzly cooler.
Speaker 1:That thing was massive dude.
Speaker 2:You could fit a grizzly. It was as big as this table.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it was as big as this table. I would say, yeah, amanda took pictures of it and it just don't do it justice. Even though you're looking at the cans of beer, you can see how small they are. It just doesn't do it justice. You just can't tell. You know what I towel, you know?
Speaker 2:I mean it, just, it just don't. You can't towel period, you just can't. It's, it's it's way different, you know. And he said what? How long did it?
Speaker 1:hold 20 days. He said it'll hold ice damn 20 days. That's crazy. He said it's for elk, like if you catch an elk, you could you are killing elk. You could throw it in this cooler and it'd be big enough where it had forklift mark.
Speaker 2:Oh yeah holes on the bottom.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it did it had forklift holes on the bottom so you could forklift it. Everything was nuts. It was bigger than those like Joe Bennett has those big, those big, massive white tubs that have the cage around them, that have the fish in them. It was three of those. I mean that thing was massive and he just had beer in it. It was all beer and I'm thinking that's a lot of beer. And then I looked in the back of that van, that bus, that he had that little white bus, the back door it was all beer.
Speaker 2:You could see even more beer in there.
Speaker 1:I'm like damn they don't mess around.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I met one guy. He said he just goes to all the games, all of them. And I'm like, damn, every game, every game, you don't miss any, don't miss any. Really, I'm like those are some fans there, they're way beyond me, so he just flies to them, drives to them. What's he doing? Flies to them if they're local or drive to them no, not local, but whatever Like close enough, he gets there, he goes to every one of them. I said that's crazy.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I think it would be fun to do like Brandon does, like one a year maybe. Try and make sure you get to. I mean that would be cool, but like I don't know every game, that's crazy. That's your weekend, that's dedication there, I guess. Yeah, especially for the Browns. You got to travel and watch them lose.
Speaker 2:Boy, you just lost all our friendships we just made.
Speaker 1:No, all those people. They were all like ah, they're all bitching. You know what I mean? They're Browns fans. That's what we do we bitch. That's the goal. That's what happens. As a Browns fan, you end up bitching. That is what happens. You know? I don't know, are you watching this? On which one are you watching on right now? I don't know? Bar and Grill or Bar Talk? I don't know. You should probably go to bar and grill, because I'm not getting anything on bar talk, which I find hard to believe right now.
Speaker 2:That doesn't matter.
Speaker 1:Yeah, so I don't know, but my dad's in town, that's exciting.
Speaker 2:He drove up in his new car.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I'm loving it, huh Should have been a nice ride for him. Huh mhm, those heated seats, that's all new to him. Yeah, he's got like a. He's got like a, one of those screens and that like connects to your phone and shit. He ain't even got a cell phone he don't have a cell phone?
Speaker 1:no, hell, no. What's he gonna do with it when he's here? There's no connection at home? None, damn, you can't have a cell phone at his house. I mean, there's no connection. That's not like oh I know, I was there, you got to drive I don't know 20 minutes to get a cell connection, something like that. Damn, yeah, cell phone will be pointless for him. He's got to have a landline, living in a stone age order. And then you get to my grandma. Like my grandma, she had the same phone for I forget how many years like 60 years probably, wow and they took it from her. She can't have a landline, no more. She had to get a cell phone. Why? I guess they just don't. I guess they just discontinued them.
Speaker 2:I guess I like landlines yeah, yeah, but that's kind of scary really, because something happens in a thing you don't have a landline, you're screwed Right.
Speaker 1:I don't think that's, I don't know anybody that's got a landline Even we don't have a landline here on the business it's all through cable, it's an internet phone, it's all through the cable company, it all runs through there. You can say internet phone, it's all through the cable company, it all runs through there. So we did get some of the bugs worked out. You wanted to play with the Zoom yesterday or last week. We can do that this week. No, I don't want to play with nothing. Well, no, you said, check out the cameras, the Pantilt, zoom. Yeah, that's, we can do that. Now. It all can happen. It can happen. We can zoom you in, zoom you out. I'm going to zoom you out real quick. Zoom you out, zoomed out. Look at that. Everybody can get a good look at the studio. Now they can see what we're working with. That's Guido. That's from behind me looking at Guido, and then Guido's staring at me the other way.
Speaker 1:Kind of See that monitor right there. That monitor is what he's talking about. He don't like it. It's too high. He feels like Wilson. It's pretty slick though. Zooms in and out, we can see. Look, you got a booger right there. We got it set up, we got it going on. Not the smoothest in the zooming and tilting and moving, though. Is it Not too bad, though I guess? Damn it, it's delayed, it keeps coming back.
Speaker 2:I got to look at OBS.
Speaker 1:That's what I'm doing. That's what I'm screwing up.
Speaker 2:There we go, all, all right, go ahead. What were you saying then that thing?
Speaker 1:was pretty good. Yes, you know, I like yeah, it was fun, and I didn't have the best of confidence. When I got there I didn't think that it was gonna be. I was like yeah, and all of a sudden it was, it was jumping, it was jumping. There's Brian. I see Brian now. Morning Brian, I ain't got him on. Well, good, you're probably on Bar and Grill then that's good. I'm on Bar Talk. We go out on Bar Talk and then it group connects the other two pages Madhouse Bar and Grill and Madhouse Contracting. I'll connect it and just broadcast it also, but we're really we're Mott House Bar Talk, so that's where we broadcast from technically.
Speaker 2:So what do you got coming up here? What's the next thing here?
Speaker 1:I don't know, but we were definitely talking about a bunch of different things. I know I got that tournament thing that he sent me that we want to do with the cornhole. I want to do our Bar Olympics thing again and that's what I was thinking we should talk about this summer. What do we want to do? Because last summer I didn't feel like it hit that well. Shit, I thought it did good. The events yeah.
Speaker 1:All of them? No, no, no, that's what I'm saying. There was ones that did hit well, but not all of them for sure.
Speaker 2:Let there was ones that did hit well, but not all of them for sure. Let's go buy a couple of them kids' basketball hoop things, you know the little plastic ones. Then make it higher.
Speaker 1:Do something with that, like to play basketball, just like little shoot shots, like the little one, though you're saying, not the big one, like a pop-a-shot type thing. I don't know, I got a pop-a-shot at home. We can just bring a pop-a-shot. There you go.
Speaker 2:That'd be cool. No, you got something to practice on. You'll be able to practice in here.
Speaker 1:It's in my basement. You can't get that art, you can't. You know what I'm saying. Like it's in the basement, we had it up in that middle room, but it's just anyways. Yeah, we'll put together some events. Yeah, I want to do some events. I, I want to get it set up again. I'm a little I'm a little, uh gun shy about it, though, because last year I planned out the whole summer and then it just didn't hit. And I, I feel like every year I've done it. You always go, oh, you do it last minute, but they hit better doing it that way. I don't know how that's possible, but that's what happened. I don't understand how they hit better whenever we do it last minute compared to. That's weird, right? I even know I know, like with the advertising, like, if we're running a steak special, i't run a like, tell you, wednesday, we're gonna have steaks on friday. I do a friday morning. If I don't, I nobody show, nobody even cares. It's like. It's like it. It gets in their psyche and disappears, or something. Remember old?
Speaker 2:girl tried to say set up a uh shoe horses again, yeah, horseshoes, yeah. She said horseshoes.
Speaker 1:tia said horseshoes. Yeah, she said horseshoes, tia said, horseshoes Bring back horseshoes. Hell, no, you guys seem low. What does that mean? You guys seem low, seem low, like we're low Volume, probably. Oh, like our heights are low. Oh, he wants us to lower the camera, I think. But then you won't have the whole screen in the background. Silly Like, why don't we? I mean, I'll do it, I don't care, we'll drop Guido right to the floor. There he goes. No, here we go. We gotta go the other way.
Speaker 2:What does he say when we're low, probably volume?
Speaker 1:Oh, does he mean volume? I hope it's not volume. I hope he doesn't mean volume, I don't know. Low, is that what he means? Low? I don't know. I don't know why I mess with this stuff in the middle of the broadcast like a dum-dum, like a dum-dummy Brian.
Speaker 1:There we go. Now Are we high? Now Are we high, are we high? So what events? What events? I don't have any events. That's what I said. We got to think about it, we got to come up with some, I guess, but what I mean, I don't know what it means. He said volume seems low. That's what I said. Volume seems low. I thought it sounded a little weird. Let's see, I thought it sounded weird too. I thought the same thing. How's that?
Speaker 2:Does that sound better?
Speaker 1:Yeah, okay. Well, we might have been messing with it a little bit.
Speaker 2:Does that sound better, Brian?
Speaker 1:No, he's going to say it's too high. It's too high, you hurt my ears.
Speaker 1:I thought, he'd show up yesterday. Well, I want to do the cornhole. I mean, I'd like the cornhole tournament thing. I think that's a big, I think that's going to be a big one. So we'll add that into the summer, I think. And yeah, it does sound a lot better. I can hear it now. I knew it was off, I was trying to figure it out. But the cornhole tournament would be a good one. I just think I'd like to get some, some more, because the last time I was trying to get like just involved, like girls like to get dressed up and stuff like that, get themselves ready and go out, I was trying to get those type of parties going. I don't know if they, they just didn't seem to work. I think we just need to do more of the sporting stuff. You know what I mean. Yeah, you know Scotty Campana wants a slap contest. That's what he wants to do. I ain't doing that shit. I ain't doing it either. But if people want to come slap each other, we'll sponsor it.
Speaker 2:Hell, no, I'll sponsor it all day. They got leagues for that shit. It's like what are you crazy?
Speaker 1:Who would join that shit. That's why it's like. That's why scotty thinks it's a smart move, that's what we need to do.
Speaker 2:He thinks I think what we need to do is get rent a damn mechanical horse or bull in here. That's what you could do, that that's possible we put one in the field and shit.
Speaker 1:You know, that's the other thing. We could do that axe throwing again too. I like that. We did that. That was fun. Yeah, that was a lot of fun, and they have like the games you could play as you're doing it. That was a lot of fun, I think a mechanical bull.
Speaker 2:Let's see how much that costs.
Speaker 1:Yeah, we put it right in the parking lot right there next to the bar, yeah, right next to the bar. I was going to say the field, nah, right next to the bar, that way you could. No, I'm just kidding. Have them get tossed off. Bear and slapping, not good, I mean, it seems right to me. I don't know.
Speaker 2:I don't know anybody who would get in it.
Speaker 1:I don't know. I don't know who's all into that, like into the slapping thing. I don't know who I mean. I think everybody would slap the shit out of someone, but how many are going to want to get slapped?
Speaker 2:Right, I'll slap the shit out of someone.
Speaker 1:But Scottie says he thinks that would be huge, he thinks that would do good, the Bar Olympics. I think the turnout wasn't as great as I hoped it would be but it definitely was the big event.
Speaker 1:It was the great event that everybody enjoyed the most, I think, this year. Yeah, it was good and I think it would be cool to do something again on that realm. I want to do that. Plus it brings in bar talk too a little bit and we get to do that whole thing. But I definitely think that the cornhole tournament I think could be huge. I mean that gets a lot of people there, as long as it's not the riffraff like I like I've heard in the past that it's riffraff that come with some riffraff huh we ain't around no riffraff like that neck while brian's at a club private club.
Speaker 1:It's probably a little better there at the private club than it is anywhere else yeah, you guys got, you got people that.
Speaker 2:Just that's what they do. You know I what I'm saying and they hear about it and they just come for that. Yeah, I get it.
Speaker 1:That Marcus. He wants to get involved in some of it too with us. He said he'd like to get involved with some of it.
Speaker 2:You know what I think a podcast challenge like bring all kinds of podcasters here and then we do a Podcast mania, yeah, and then we challenge them to some of the events you know, I mean they mix up some other podcasters, that'll come out if they want to get involved.
Speaker 1:Some of them are real competitive, though they don't want to get involved. They don't want to. You know what I mean. They're like competitive, they're weird well, that ain't being competitive. You don't want to join in no, like they won't help you get your show doing anything no, no, I don't care about that.
Speaker 2:I'm talking about just set up, do your thing, and then have an event where we have, we challenge them to like cornhole or whatever.
Speaker 1:Just I think a podcast mania could be cool too, like just get a bunch of podcasters to set up outside mobile podcasts and get some people here to interview where they can run around the whole thing and interview at the each one and stuff. I think that would be cool and we could intertwine that where we can whoop their ass in some cornhole or something or get our ass whooped Because we both suck.
Speaker 2:Let's just put it out there we just suck.
Speaker 1:That one group was pretty good too. I liked Burning River Cleveland. They seem like a good group of guys. They have a podcast they were doing out there. They've done it. Like I think he said, this was like their third year doing it there. They're the ones that had to sponsor and stuff. Yeah, I was like sponsors what the hell.
Speaker 2:Yeah, remember you tried to get that dentist, that toothpaste, to sponsor us.
Speaker 1:It wasn't toothpaste, it was tooth whitening. You put them on your teeth and they're very simple and easy to put on your teeth, but they don't work and they don't bother you even a little bit. No, that's not true. You told me you was like I didn't want to admit it, but they were starting to gleam. You said it. Don't lie, you know you did.
Speaker 2:I might have been trying to burst your ego or something like that. They didn't work yeah, that's that's uh. You got mad, and frustrated and stop. No, I did it for the 30 days that was, you said, a man that got some cheap ones and they worked better they did, they really did.
Speaker 1:The cheap ones worked better. Yeah, the cheap ones did a better job. I mean, I, I don't know- the name brand yet.
Speaker 1:Huh, you need to get the name brand, the name I think it was like. I want to say it was like whatever walmart brand, like great value, I think, or something. I think is what it was great value. Did you see that great value corn thing that's going around all over the social media? They and they said it's great value, specific. If you have great value in your, in your, like an older can of corn in your in your cabinet right now, and then go buy a new one great value corn and look at the look at the two of them. That it's it's completely different. Like the one is saying may cause cancer in california and and that Wow, and the calories are different. Like the calories are double, the calories double in the new can. It says it may cause cancer and it says it's all from the Philippines with no vitamins in it.
Speaker 1:The other one had vitamins and stuff in it. Dude, it's wild.
Speaker 2:It's pretty wild. You know how I really get into that FDA and shit? No, that's why I brought it up pretty wild. You know, I I really get into that fda and shit. Now, that's why I brought it up. Holy shit, that's crazy. They need to just eliminate that shit yeah, well, how does it. Why are we may?
Speaker 1:cause cancer in california. What not here? No, I don't know. We're safe here, yeah yeah, you're all right.
Speaker 2:What the hell that's?
Speaker 1:crazy. Yeah, it's been going around all week.
Speaker 2:I've been seeing you want to be a successful businessman, put out some bullshit in the fucking united states. Just can up some garbage and sell it they got to be paying people off, though that's got to be expensive to pay off people right oh my god, it's just crazy yeah, they.
Speaker 1:I think it's saying all the corn is coming from the Philippines.
Speaker 2:Uh-huh, mine comes from Lake.
Speaker 1:Or is it Philippine or Korean? I can't remember. I don't remember.
Speaker 2:It's something like that, it's just crazy.
Speaker 1:It is, I don't understand why we'd ever buy corn or wheat or anything like that.
Speaker 2:We got one of the best corns in the world here. Yeah, why would probably cheaper for them to send it out here than it is for them to grow it here, and that's crazy, but I still get it on Lake Avenue, but how does it have double the calories?
Speaker 1:That's what I don't understand. And cancer?
Speaker 2:That's crazy, I don't know and cancer. I never heard no stupid shit like that. You get double the calories. You know this year I've heard more stupid shit like through the government and through the FDA and all that shit than ever. This is crazy, like the way they just allow that shit to go through.
Speaker 1:Well, it goes along with what you say. They don't allow it anywhere else, and everything else, but they allow it here. That doesn't make sense for them to allow it here. I don't understand why they would allow it here. They're trying to control the population and I don't understand how California says it may cause cancer. I just don't understand. But see, I don't know if it's California overdoing it, because California is a little crazy.
Speaker 2:No, for real.
Speaker 1:So how do you know if they're overdoing it or if it's actual? You know what I mean. I don't know, I really don't know. I don't know the answer to that. I just don't.
Speaker 2:Why would you even, like I said, the fda? If it's even possible, why would they even allow it on the shelves? Yeah, that's supposed to be our protector, they're here for us, to save us, and it comes out of our tax dollars to, to pay them to guard us, basically, yeah, to know the shit we don't know, and they didn't. So what's the purpose of having them is what I'm saying.
Speaker 1:It's more government. That's the problem. That's why everybody always says oh, you're a Republican, I'm not a Republican, I'm not a Democrat, I'm not anything. I call myself a conservative, and when I say conservative I mean the least amount of government we can have, because it's all crooked. That's what happens when you have government. You know, fda, sure, maybe it does start out as a good program. We come in, it's the federal drug administration. They go over. But they approve a vaccine that clearly was it shouldn't have been approved. That's caused a lot of problems. They approve food that cause, say they say causes cancer everywhere else. You know what I'm saying. Like, like the red and stuff. I mean there's different things that get that that go on with it, and it's probably because they're just getting paid, or or somebody's taking lobbyists and all that bullshit.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah and it's bullshit. It's just, it's, it's, and that's why you don't need government and you need to just have your own involvement in it.
Speaker 2:Yeah, do your own research and. I'm not buying that can of corn. You know what I mean.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I mean, I don't know A can of corn like people just need to stop eating canned anything if they don't have to. If they didn't, can it themselves or jar it themselves. Just grow your own damn corn.
Speaker 2:Grow your own everything. Huh, it's hard to grow corn. You might have to go in them little little uh or buy a local farmer or something.
Speaker 1:You know what I'm saying? I mean, there's local farmers.
Speaker 2:Man like, yeah, I'm telling you what's the name of that one Fennec, yeah, fennec.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it's real good, like it's it's. It's real good. If it's a dry season it gets even better. The drier the season, the sweeter the corn, oddly enough.
Speaker 2:There's the same.
Speaker 1:That's not. That's not true at all. That's the darker to bury the sweeter to juice, right? Oh, is that it the darker to bury the sweeter to juice? Yeah, but no, that's what they say. That's what my grandma always said, because when she worked at Spiegelberg. Like the apples and stuff would be so sweet Corn same thing If a dry season helps it pull all the sugars and stuff out of there.
Speaker 2:They don't have that apple place no more around here, do they? No, that's Carvana now. Yeah, but don't they have a section still, or no, no, no, no, they wiped out all of that.
Speaker 1:They took everything. Yeah, they took it all, every bit of it. There's one on 611. An apple? Oh, yeah, there, probably is. I know that we go down to that one out in the um amherst, south amherst hill, hilltop or hill crust, something like that. We go there and dylan will eat. Like dylan will have apples in the house. He really won't eat them, but when we're there he'll pick them off the tree and smash. And those same apples when we get them home we'll smash on them. They're different you know what I mean than just going to the store.
Speaker 2:And that's another thing. There's a lot of stuff around here that people just go by every day and just never. You know what I'm saying. Like, if you go to Jamie's, they got all them fresh fruits and stuff.
Speaker 1:Yeah, and you're better off than you are to buy jarred and canned and everything else. You know, that's I mean we grew up with. Because of my grandma being at the orchard, we always had fresh fruit. You know what I mean? I never seen the weird fruits, though we had fruit trees all around our neighborhood. Mangoes and we never seen like we didn't see that kind of stuff, you know. I mean we just got stuff that they had at the orchard.
Speaker 2:Basically I got a great uncle. They used to have, uh, plums and pears and apples and shit in his backyard. We used to have that down the street. But you go down there, you get, you go in his backyard, you get tore up by bees it was.
Speaker 1:I think it was hankos actually that lived down the street from me, between me and Anthony Fortier. When we were kids, the Hankos lived there. I think he was cousin of the actual owner of this place. I think it was like his. It might have been his brother, I don't know, the old man's brother possibly, but he had a pear tree in the backyard. Those pears were delicious. Oh my God, were they so good. Brian said he gets his stuff from Jamie's.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:That's where he goes, he said. But you know, jamie's is a, that's a cool place. He wears a little Pittsburgh outfit when he goes to Jamie's. Not everybody has a place like Jamie's around. I mean that's, you know? Yeah, he probably does. He wears a little Pittsburgh. Yeah, you would have loved it. Yesterdayrian over there at the yeah right, all the dog pound people there. Oh, yeah, you would have loved it. It was fun. But yeah, a lot of places don't have a jamie's flea market like. That flea market is off the hook compared to most like anything you go. You know what I mean. I've been to some pretty good flea markets, though you have. But I mean I'm saying like most people don't have something that close and available to them. I mean it's a, it's a nice ass flea market. It's huge, it's massive. You can get pretty much anything in there.
Speaker 1:You can get food in there, you can get your speakers, screwdrivers, speakers computers, uh jewelry, got a lot of food trucks there. Yeah, food trucks a lot. Yeah, gold, yeah, you know anything, you name it, you can get it there. Rip off pokemon throwing knives yeah, we got some knives for dylan, that the pokemon one.
Speaker 1:Did I tell you what happened with that one? Dylan wanted, uh, wanted. He's into the Pokemon and the big Pokemon card is the Charizard. That's the card that everybody wants and they had it there and I bought it for him for Christmas. You know what I mean. Dylan opened that thing up, looked at it, went fake and tossed it to the side. I'm like what the fuck? So he brought over the other cards and showed it to me. This dude's got a huge ass pokemon display over there. I mean he's got like three boots, all pokemon cards and shit like that everywhere. None of them real, none of them. Wow, dude, he was showing me it, it's, it's. They look exactly the same, but the coloring is off on the. On the fake ones the coloring is and you could see it clear as day when you put it next to a real one. You could see it clear as day, I mean. And it's aggravating.
Speaker 1:I was pissed, dude, I was freaking boiling. I was pissed. Did you go back up? No, I never did go back up there. I don't know how I would have handled myself.
Speaker 2:I would have lost my shit because that guy's going to bullshit.
Speaker 1:You is what he's going to do. And then I'm going to fucking really lose my shit because he knows what he did. You know what I mean? And I didn't pay that much for it. It was like 50 bucks, I mean, but I think like I got he has an actual Charizard now but I think I paid like I don't remember, I don't even want to lie, but it's probably in the 300 range or something, maybe more, I don't know.
Speaker 2:But it's a.
Speaker 1:Charizard, it's an actual one. That's funny. You just look at it and say like, oh, yeah, yeah, and I was mad as hell. I had no clue. You know what I mean? Wow, brian said he's got a guy that sells the real shit.
Speaker 2:Brian's always got a guy.
Speaker 1:Brian got a guy. Is he at the flea market? Because that guy got me over there and I'll never go back there again. Yeah, all fake. And I don't even understand, because the fake one looks like a real. I mean that's got to be a true manufacturing process the way he did it. I mean it's so close. It's just the colorings off. That's the only way you could tell. Is the coloring really? Wow, it's like a lighter color or something like it's. It's I don't know. It's weird. He lives in new jersey. I ain't going to new jersey for a charizard card. What's the matter with him? You already got one. I know two of them. No, I think dylan threw that one away right away. But that gold guide is that. That's there, like it right in the middle, kind of behind the food. That has a nice big booth there. He's got a lot of coins and money and stuff. He's got his shit's all real. He's on his shit.
Speaker 2:He knows what he's doing yeah well, I don't know why, why jamie's would allow a guy to sell fake shit there. That's kind of I that you party, right, that's, that's kind of.
Speaker 1:I bet you that's it. That's all you do is.
Speaker 2:You still got to monitor that shit. You can't just let somebody come in there and do that shit.
Speaker 1:No, not, not. I mean, if he wants to say it's fake, then Right, fine, you want to sell shit and say it's fake, but just go there and sell it and tarnish jamie's name like that, you know?
Speaker 1:yeah, he told me he got it out of a pack like he goes oh yeah, I got lucky and got this one out of a pack and this and that blah, blah, blah. But it was the difference between I'm trying to remember, like I, there was something supposed to be special about that card and I can't remember. It might have been a misprint, it might have been, or supposedly he said, or something he was a bullshitter. He was definitely a bullshitter. He was definitely a bullshitter. He should sell cards. Yeah, he should. He's selling cards. The same thing. But yeah, he got me, fucker, pissed me off Pretty good. That was like not this last Christmas, I think it was a Christmas before. I'm glad that I had told him I bought it and didn't say Santa Claus, could you imagine Santa Claus show up with some fake?
Speaker 2:shit.
Speaker 1:I mean now we don't believe in Santa. But then he did Like. You know, santa gave me a fake Charizard Boy. That wouldn't make no sense.
Speaker 2:Maybe Christmas Eve he's sitting with a sniper rifle. Get his ass.
Speaker 1:You go to load the shit under the tree and just get a hand out. Yeah, 50 bucks should have told me. You're right, brian, but I don't know. I don't know enough about cards, though, I don't care enough about cards.
Speaker 2:If it's too good to be true, I don't know that they're that much.
Speaker 1:I don't know, I'm just like I just don't know, I don't know.
Speaker 2:Like to save 50 bucks to. Anyways. He bought something in a box at a store or something where a person was outside selling shit. Got home it was a brick in that wall.
Speaker 1:Brian does it with his grandbaby. See, that's the thing with me, and that was the first time I attempted to get him. I go get him money. You know what I mean, like coins and stuff like that.
Speaker 1:I'll get him gold coins and stuff like that for him and that stuff he puts away or whatever. That I understand, but like a card to me, 50 bucks for one card is ridiculous. You know what I mean. It's absolutely ridiculous. But, like my mom, she bought him like a big pack. She bought it for him one time and he ended up getting a really good card out of it, out of the big pack. So now my mom buys him packs all the time and sends them to the like. She gets them on Amazon and sends them there. You know, just because, like you know, there's a chance there could be a really good card in there.
Speaker 2:Do you remember when, when they added like boxes of cards, people run the store and buy a box of what baseball cards? Yeah, yeah, I got some, so they'd be like well, as soon as they came in, they'd buy them. They'd be sold out like in the same day, you know like crazy shit.
Speaker 1:Yeah, that was big yeah, baseball cards were huge back when we were kids. Stamps too. For some reason, I was never into stamps. Were you ever into stamps too? For some reason, I was never into stamps. Were you ever in the stamps?
Speaker 2:we had some, but I was never into it no, I wasn't never in the stamps, I'm not.
Speaker 1:Brandon's a collector. He likes, he has. He collects all kinds of shit. Oh yeah, anything he like. Yeah, he's a collector. He he's always been like lego sets, freaking star wars, stuff, like. He just always collector. Dylan's the same thing. Dylan's a collector, he likes, he's just always a collector. Dylan's the same thing. Dylan's a collector. Even when he was a kid. Amanda thought maybe he might be autistic because he would just get every Thomas to train. He had to have them all, but he didn't play with any of them.
Speaker 2:He'd just line them up and look at them. That's a collector.
Speaker 1:Yeah, he's a collector, that's what it is. He's a collector. But she thought, man, is he autistic? Or something like she couldn't figure it out, you know. But yeah, he's a collector, he likes to collect. That's a, that's a, just like brandon. The same same principle or same concept, whatever you want to call it. But yeah, he, he's, uh, he's a collector. I never really baseball cards is about it for me so how was the thing last night here, the singing?
Speaker 1:Oh, it was packed. The place was jamming last night. That's what. When we first got back I went man, it's a little dead, and I was up here I was posting the videos and the podcast and stuff. I was doing that waiting for that Marcus to come by, and I got it all put out or whatever, and by the time he came down there it was probably about half full. And when we went down we went down to like Ogles this place was packed inside and out. Everywhere was packed. Yeah, it was doing good last night. Real good Went in the kitchen. Angel was like we got smacked.
Speaker 1:It was like he got hit pretty good. So, yeah, we did good yesterday, real good. He's always, grafano always brings a good crowd. He's got. He's good at what he does. I like him better on the patio than I do inside, but yesterday was raining so he had to be inside, but I like him better on the patio. Oh, it's just a lot better vibe. It's a better feel. You know what I mean just everything jammed up in here.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you get too congested, like literally I come through, you could barely walk through anywhere, you know, because he had it all, you know, all filled up, but it was, you know, that's what the goal is, to fill it up. So I mean that's, that's the way you want it yeah but yeah, I want him on the patio.
Speaker 1:We still got him scheduled to all summer. We've got him scheduled throughout the summer. Ray ray cassidy wants to come on um the taper they used to work for me. He wants to come in and it he does like I'm not sure what he's doing now, but he's always done like Tom Petty type stuff. You know what I?
Speaker 2:mean Like that, I like that shit.
Speaker 1:Yeah, and he's. They're good, always have been pretty good, so we'll see. We'll see how he does. I got a matter of fact. I'll probably reach or something and try and schedule something for him to get him in here. And then there's a couple other that I want to get in for sure I might get that. I think what's his name? Andy? I can't remember his name, damn it. I feel bad for not knowing. He listens to the podcast too. He comes in here all the time. Just went to work, for I think, in Lorain there Just got a new job over there, but he has a live band. They do like some like a classic rock type stuff they have.
Speaker 1:I'd like to get them in here too just because I mean he's such a good patron, I'd like to, you know, give him a chance. I don't know which one you're talking about. Um, he was coming in here every day in the daytime and he was a pool tab player, but now he's uh. Now he's uh only in the evenings because he works. He just got it. He just got back. When he first started coming in here, he just got laid off from his job they like closed or something, and then he just got another job now, so he's been coming in the evening. I can't I don't know why. I can't remember his damn name. I think it might be andy, but I know that. That. Know that Andy's the electrician. Him and his wife come in, Aaron or whatever they come in, but I think that might still be his name too. Maybe, possibly, Unless it's not. I don't remember, but I would like to give them a chance to come in here too.
Speaker 1:Classic Rocks some older guys, Kind of like we did before. Last year we had those guys here. I like those guys too, and I've had a couple other reach out to me. I just haven't had time to mess with any of it. I've been messing with this and now I've got to get serious about Scotties and get that done. I've got to get on that. How much more you got over there.
Speaker 1:Well, we've got the downstairs stairs built and now the treads came in for the upstairs now so I can put the stairs in upstairs and then I'm not sure when the railings will come in. But then we've got to start doing the railings. I'm not sure how long it's going to take for those, but I've still got a lot of prep I've got to put. I'm going to put a 1x6 all the way around on the base and stuff like that, Because that's a whole 50-foot across banister or whatever. So I'm going to put a 1x6 on that to clean it up against that drywall and make it nice.
Speaker 1:And then in the stairwell I've got to do all that. There's a lot of just messing around and then you've got to figure it out too. And then I've got to do some drywall work there too. Now that it's there and put together. There's some drywall work that'll have to be put together now because there's been stuff you just couldn't do until those actual stairs were in so but yeah, we got to get serious and get that done, because he's getting better.
Speaker 1:Plus, he wants to start another whole another project. He wants to start that little building outside. He wants to build a little house for his sister in the back to hang out in Like a mini house or whatever Little house he's got.
Speaker 1:his nephew, dave's been coming over there and doing stuff too, like trimming stuff. That dude's pretty good. That's pretty good. He should be busy as good as he is actually Everything. He seems conscientious of what he's doing does a good job. You can't help, but I'm gonna have to shut that one off. I could see that that's all you do is look at it. It's the same thing right in front of you on your screen.
Speaker 1:I can't see that monitors in my way no, no, it's on your screen, like you're looking at it, like if you look at our podcast.
Speaker 2:That's the same thing I'm looking at that one, but yeah, there's a lot we could do this summer, though I think we could get some really good stuff going this summer yeah, I think I want to add the bands I want to.
Speaker 1:We've got scrofano lined up. I want to add maybe two or three more that come in and do that, and then the other. But the thing is is I've just been busy and I gotta get scotty's done, and then I have my same fantasy I want to redo the inside. You know what I mean. So that's a whole nother thing, because that that's. I don't even know how I'm going to handle that. But I do want to redo that inside right. I'm trying to see if I can get enough money together to to redo the whole thing like how I want to do it. That would make a big difference for us, especially with my uncle opening up right down the street with all my old employees.
Speaker 1:It's kind of messed up, right, kind of Kind of. Yeah, it's kind of messed up, your own uncle doing you dirty, like that. He don't think so. He's like oh no, you fired him, but kind of shitty, I don't know. But it's good, it's gonna bite him and he asked some of them that won't. Like sam smith might not bite him in the ass. I mean she, she's not. But like that, that freaking. Like that sam p, like she, she, if you leave her in there to drink, she's gonna drink. Like even when she wasn't allowed to drink here, she was sneaking a drink. She's not going to stop drinking. You know what I mean.
Speaker 2:And that's going to get you. It's a shame, though, because when she's on her shit, she's on her shit.
Speaker 1:Oh no, yeah, when she's great, but the drinking is what's going to get you. That's how I know. I'm aware Amanda told me Because it was Russ's birthday too. Right, it was her and Russ's birthday. And then the other one was they hired. I think they hired Danny. I think Danny got hired down there. Probably Danny's a great bartender. I mean she would do good down there. She'd be good. I mean, we'll see, I don't know.
Speaker 1:I want to say he doesn't think he's doing me wrong, but then I, there's a part of me that knows that he that's not true, because I remember when he bought the bar he has now, he was selling the one that was on parole and as he was selling it he was buying the other one, but he didn't want him to know he was buying another one. Like he knew what he was doing then and that was a lot further away than what he is now for me, right. So I, I don't know. I think that he a hundred percent knows what he's doing and I think it's kind of like payback for not selling it to him because he wanted to buy it back.
Speaker 1:Oh, yeah, yeah, he offered me four, 50 for it, but in payments, if it would have been cash, I would have probably, but it was like half and then payments. You know what I mean. Right, if it was, if it was cash, I probably would have jumped on it. You know what I mean. But, um, yeah, good luck to him. Yeah, I mean I, yeah, he'll be opening soon.
Speaker 2:I know it won't be too long no, he put a lot of investment in it.
Speaker 1:And we'll lose some for a little bit. But I mean I'm not worried about it, mostly because I mean you've had so many bars close at this point that there is definitely enough to go around. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, right. So, I'm not that worried about it honestly, we're kind of right next door.
Speaker 1:Yeah, the one right now. Well, maple was right down the street. I mean, maple was as close as he is, you know what I'm saying. So I mean, and they're gone, I think it'll be fine and I don't think it's gonna. I mean, at first you'll probably have everybody go check it out, and then it's like I said before when I first started, when we were talking about it, I go, I go, yeah, everybody who has these fantasies are going to put somebody out of business. You're not going to put somebody out of business. It'll people come check you out for a minute and then people are going to go back to where they're comfortable that's where they're comfortable.
Speaker 1:That's just how it is. You know, right, and that's you know. We're kind of in the opposite space now with with what dale's got going on down there, and I think we'll get people that'll go down to see him, just simply based on the fact that the old bartenders, the old bartenders are there. They're gonna go see.
Speaker 2:You still got relationships with a lot of customers here. You know them girls are. They're all nice people, they're good people oh yeah, there's I.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I like them all. There was that it's business is business. I had nothing to do with right personal right I definitely like all of them. I have no issues with any of them, that's just the way it is.
Speaker 2:You got to do what you got to do you know.
Speaker 1:But yeah, I want to get something going for the summer with that stuff, but it all depends on, again, am I going to have the money to redo the inside? If I do, I might be a little lackluster on what I'm doing event wise because I'll be, you know, tied up with that Cause. That's something I want to do. If I I do it, I want it done in two weeks. I don't want to right you know what I mean when it get, when it gets started, I want it done, I want to get it and I'm out of there. You know what I mean. I don't want to have it closed down forever, just a couple weeks.
Speaker 1:Well, you're gonna do keep the outside open anyways, right, yeah, but I still don't want it dragged out, right, that's not uh, that's not uh, that's. I want to have all that ready, to go and just go. You know what I mean. And then that way it can come back and everything looks great and we can go about our day and it'll hopefully do better for the winter business for us. If we could set it up right, that it's more comfortable, more enjoyable in the winter, I think we could do better. So that's my thought anyways, yeah, whether I'm right or wrong, and I think I got a plan for it, I never can figure it out down there. It's so awkward and chopped up.
Speaker 2:Yeah, the spacing is weird down there. Yeah, it's hard to come up with an idea. I look at my house like man, I want to do something. But I'm like how are you going to do this with this? You know what I'm saying?
Speaker 1:It's just awkward. Yeah, I don't know what to do and I want to get some sort of photo spot you know what I mean when people like to get dressed up and take pictures. You know what I mean. That says that they're at manhouse. That puts dressed up and take pictures. You know what I mean. That like that says that they're at man house. That puts social media out there. So like when they take that picture, everybody who sees it on their facebook or whatever would see it on. You know that they're at madhouse or whatever you know what I'm saying?
Speaker 1:like something you know that that's a big thing nowadays, people taking their selfies. So you know they come in and they take. Not like our regulars aren't taking selfies, but people that stop in they take their selfies and post it and tag themselves if they were here and check in, or whatever you want to call it. So I want to get something that, like you know, goes along with it, makes it you know, as part of that incorporated in it.
Speaker 1:Basically, when we do the remodel and then somehow bring the podcast involved into it somehow so that the podcast because people like that too, people like to listen to the podcast hear what's going on around here, right, find out. I know bert's a big fan, the one that went and got the crawfish last night. He's listening to every episode. Bert's cool. Yeah, he's cool, he loves it, he laughs. That's funny because we were at. We were like we went down there last night and you know we're eating crabs and stuff, and then he brought the crawfish in when we were there and amanda said she was going to make a, she was going to take one to be a pet, because she took one last time and put it out in a creek in the back or whatever. She said I'm taking one to be a pet. And and, uh, bur said you're going to use that to cut the dog's turds.
Speaker 2:It's going to be your little turd cutter. So I called you up and you said I said what are you doing, or whatever? And you said Amanda took the dog for a walk, remember that. And then you said something about she said that the frog.
Speaker 1:Yeah, there's a frog that keeps getting in our garage and she found it down at the end, at the cul-de-sac, at the end, at the dead end, you know. She found the frog way, and that's you know three, four houses away, so she brought it home. I told you yeah, she brought it home. And then you, what'd you say?
Speaker 2:I said is she going to wipe its ass? I said is she going to wipe its ass? She was brought to her pet home, like what are you doing out here?
Speaker 1:I mean it really like. I mean like this morning I took that dog out, wiped its ass, but there was like literally almost nothing on it. But it wasn't nothing, it was almost nothing, right, right, right, I mean, you know, I mean probably every dog has almost nothing on their ass and you let it go around your house, especially that dog can't reach its ass to lick it clean, and all that shit, fuck that shit. That's nasty. I don't want Hershey kisses ever Fuck that. I ain't interested, I like it clean, I like the clean inside.
Speaker 2:That shit was so funny, though when I said that shit, I was like oh my.
Speaker 1:God, she started laughing too about the frog. Yeah, that was pretty funny. But I'm excited we're going to get, we're going to get the events going and I'm excited about the Marcus thing, cause he's he's kind of taught me a lot of stuff that in a, in a very short time already and he's going to help me out with getting some stuff, that that that I've been wanting to do, things that I think are missing.
Speaker 1:Like I was telling him how I, you know, and I want to like, when we're watching a video and we want to show people that video, I want to be able to put it on the screen so they can watch it right along with us. Right right, no-transcript. Your see, that little simple stuff makes such a difference. Oh, and that's what we're looking for. That's the thing.
Speaker 1:It'll make it a little nicer and yeah, so so it'll be cool and hopefully the sound works good with it. That's the biggest thing I know. I wanted to check and make sure that the sound was working on those mics before we get a guest in here, which I think it is. If this works, those are, if I can play that, and it plays loud, which it plays in our headphones. But if it records loud, you know what I mean, then I know that those microphones are working. But I'm going to go see my dad. He's in town. I want to go hang with my dad. He tried to call me while we were on air. There you go. So I'm going to go see my dad, and then I got to do schedules and get stuff ready and start on stairs for tomorrow. So that was it for this day. We'll see you guys next week. Peace.
