KDGs first time at Top Golf! Where every swing comes with a story and a "PING". KDG turns a Driving Range outing into a fierce competition. Full of mulligans and of course his own rules. While Jesse explains why he is afraid to hit off of a rubber Tee, we share our love-hate relationship with the sport.

Remember finger skateboards, and those Mini BMX bikes?  We reminisce about our childhood obsessions, including KDG's legendary Tony Hawk skateboard and Jesses GI Joe action figures. Throw in a quirky story about Kev’s dream of becoming a tree and the ridiculous story of how THE RED "MAGA" Hat tricked us.

Speaker 1

Welcome to Getting Out the pod show. Story time Story time Story time Story time Today was a tough call.

Speaker 2

Tough call, yeah, I mean, I always wanted to go. Yeah, we wanted to go for a while. It's a good place. They have beer. They have more beer. They have more beer, more beer, so good, cam you beer. They have more beer, so good.

Speaker 1

Kev. You guys told you Was it just how many days this week? What Did you drink?

Speaker 2

So actually, what was it? I haven't drank until it was today. Okay, so you're doing good, so I'm doing good. Yeah, that's good. I mean I still pick up beer here and there and stuff, you know, and that was today and stuff, so it's good. And people are playing fucking golf stupid. We gotta have, you know, some beers together. You can't. I'm the only one sitting there.

Speaker 1

I gotta fucking come out with you guys, because I gotta hit that golf ball again.

Speaker 2

Because last time I remember oh, you're worried about golf too.

Speaker 1

I'm worried about golf too, and I'm worried about you drinking. So I got to be hitting those balls straight, yeah, and I got to be getting you straight.

Speaker 2

Oh yeah.

Speaker 1

You like that.

Speaker 2

Yeah, they kept going to the right. I was like go straight.

Speaker 1

See.

Speaker 2

Yeah, oh, you were hitting the fade. I was hitting the fade, or something like that.

Speaker 1

Yeah, so it's called. I think if it goes to the right it's a fade and if it goes to the left it's something.

Speaker 2

I got a couple of far ones. I was shocked, did you? Yeah, because I got mad. I was like knock off, don the hoop and stuff it's like a video game.

Speaker 1

It is a video game. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 2

I played Angry Birds today too, knocking down captains.

Speaker 1

I'm sure you are.

Speaker 2

I'm sure you fucking were. I won both games. Oh, so they set it up like a game, yeah, so explain it Three people, all right, and then as much points you get, so you hit it and then you get 11,000. The next person might get 12,000. And the next time I go again then I'm going to double it and try to stay in first place. Now someone can get in first place if they get 45,000. Then you got to hit it further, because the further you hit it, the more points you get. Oh, got you.

Speaker 1

Okay, but isn't there like there's flags and there's like trampoline circles, type of thing? That's what I'm talking about. Those are the points, and those are points, yep, but like what happens if you get close to them, though, you still get certain points Now.

Speaker 2

Sometimes, if you like, hover over them and the ball lands close to it. Then you know what you get those points Okay okay, whoever's closer.

Speaker 1

It's like bocce ball then.

Speaker 2

But if you hit the green, you hit the green, you hit the grass. You're not even close to it. You're not getting shit. Really, I don't care what you say, you're not getting shit.

Speaker 1

Okay, but wait you can't decide, that Doesn't the scoreboard.

Speaker 2

Do it for to me so. Wait, I was saying you were just changing, you were writing your own score. No, I wasn't making my own score, it was following the computer. But I was yelling at them like that doesn't say 45, that says 2.

Speaker 1

So in your head you're telling everybody how it was.

Speaker 2

I really did win, though.

Speaker 1

How was Serge doing? Was he smashing them things? He was.

Speaker 2

He's a true. He said oh, I never played in my life. Let me tell you something that kid knows how to play. Okay, he lives in a very gorgeous house. Yeah, not his house, it's his family's house. So they, rich people golf. Rich people know how to play golf.

Speaker 1

Yeah, I was part of the crew before. I know. I know we golfed a lot it. I know we golfed a lot. It's just a thing. I don't know why, but it's a thing.

Speaker 2

Yeah Well, let me tell you something Rich people love fucking golfing. Dude, I'm not rich and I like golfing.

Speaker 1

It's fun, yeah, but have you been? Wait, have you been golfing? Golfing or just?

Speaker 2

to Topgolf? I don't know. Topgolf is pretty fun. Hit the balls. No, topgolf's great. Yeah, I haven't been.

Speaker 1

I've been to a driving range before which is pretty similar. Right, you know they don't do the whole keeping track of points and stuff. You just go and just hit the ball.

Speaker 2

Yeah, but sometimes you lose the ball. You hit it far, you, You're like well no, you're not going to get it.

Speaker 1

No, I don't think.

Speaker 2

I'll fall and I'll break my neck.

Speaker 1

There was a guy in a little cart that I saw him. I tried to hit him.

Speaker 2

Yeah, yeah. It's like if you hit me on purpose, then you're going to get fined.

Speaker 1

Excuse me, dude, I remember they used to have like metal plates on the sides of them.

Speaker 2

He still does in the windows and stuff.

Speaker 1

Oh, I haven't been in so long, kevin. Oh man, last time I went I remember I went with my friend and I brought my dad's golf clubs Right and back in the day there was this golf set. They're still around today, but I remember around the time I'm talking about they were very prevalent in the golf scene and they were called ping Ping okay, because whenever you hit them in the sweet spot of the club it would make that ping yeah.

Speaker 2

It was dope. That's what Stanley said. Yeah it was dope Ping ping, nonstop ping, and it's like I'm going to beat you, sir. Ping Ping is really getting annoying.

Speaker 1

Maybe he was using the ping, but I don't know. Maybe other people. I'm sure it's a thing now in other golf clubs.

Speaker 2

I was doing it, I said thump thump because it's hitting the ground.

Speaker 1

That was their trademark and I remember going and I hate hitting off rubber tees Of course. Is it all rubber tees? It was yeah, you can't put your own tees, of course.

Speaker 2

Is it all rubber tees? It was yeah, you can't put your own tees. You can't put your own tees.

Speaker 1

See, that's the problem.

Speaker 2

I don't know why. For some reason.

Speaker 1

I went up once with the big driver. Right, yeah, it's a high rubber tee. Oh, that thing's seeking Boom bro, it's a big horse right. Yeah, huge. Yeah, I went to swing, I hit it. I guess I hit it on the contact point where the arm and the driving club is connected Right and it just snapped off.

Speaker 2

Now, that's how you do it, guys. You see that it just snaps off.

Speaker 1

No, our dad's club. My dad didn't even really know.

Speaker 2

No, you're fucked, yeah, I was young, so I was petrified. You got some muscles snapping that I was like what the fuck?

Speaker 1

happened. How did I do it? My boy told me I hit it on the wrong point, the weak point. I snapped, I grabbed a five wood.

Speaker 2

Yeah.

Speaker 1

Went to go hit that.

Speaker 2

Did this? Cracked it right off. Damn, I should be a freaking talent. You got huh Cracking clubs.

Speaker 1

Three. Next one, Bro. I couldn't do it again.

Speaker 2

I'm going to call you. That was the last time I've ever.

Speaker 1

I think that was the last time going to a driving range. I went golfing one more time after that with my dad and years later and that is it.

Speaker 2

You just gave up, I just did it's not, it's just.

Speaker 1

Yeah, it was a little muff. The club breaker, ladies and gentlemen, yeah that scared the shit out of me. I didn't even know you could break a club by hitting it in the wrong spot, especially on a rubber tee, because rubber tee is weird dude it is because it's like no, have you ever hit off a regular tee?

Speaker 2

I have. My brother showed me how to do it and I've done it with him. You've done it with him before. Yeah, it wasn't that great, but you know.

Speaker 1

Yeah, but to me it's easier. You can adjust the level and when you hit it it pops out Right right. Yeah, they even have these cheating ones where they have a curve on the back of it right, oh, cool so you know, you said your ball it's called slice or fade yeah. I think I sliced it. Slice it or fade it. Okay so either to the left is a slice or fade, whichever one. So it's either slice or fade. So, but the thing on the back curves up around the golf ball.

Speaker 2

Okay, yeah.

Speaker 1

So because what causes?

Speaker 2

the fade is the spin.

Speaker 1

Yeah, yeah, the fade is the spin, exactly so it stops it from spinning. So it just makes it go whatever, Exactly yeah. Straight. Even if you hit it to the left, it will go to the left.

Speaker 2

It's almost like a change-up in baseball yeah it's like a cheat code.

Speaker 1

It's like greasing your hand for the baseball, exactly Crazy.

Speaker 2

My brother showed that to me. I was like, oh my God, that was back a while ago. They make golf balls where you can hit them, but it's a certain amount of golf balls in a batch where you can set them up to your phone. And then you can hit them and show you how far you hit them. How do you go get them? You don't need them. That's why you got a bunch of them. I mean you could get them. Oh, so you just register them.

Speaker 1

They're probably cheaper. You just register them.

Speaker 2

You don't need them, that's why you got a bunch of them. I mean you could get them. Oh, so you just register them. They're probably cheaper. You just register them, that's a smart idea.

Speaker 1

That's a really fucking smart idea.

Speaker 2

You know what's funny about that. Go ahead, I just made that up. I don't know if that's true. Yeah, it's crazy, but that would be a cool idea, right guys? That would be cool. You got me. You got me, good job.

Speaker 1

Good job, congratulations, you fucking asshole. I'm sorry, but that's a good bro.

Speaker 2

Maybe whoa, that'd be wild.

Speaker 1

Yeah, gotta use your brain to make something different, because all you got to really do is put a QR code on the box and make it a box of 50. Exactly, and just all the same golf ball.

Speaker 2

Yep.

Speaker 1

Right and I guess but wait, how would you? I don't know, it would be weird. It would have to be like a thing where you could just like I don't know. You would have to like swipe it to your phone, or something like that. How would you even be able to do that? I don't know. We're giving these people yeah, because you would have to register each ball. Yeah, no, yeah, but that's a pain in the ass, dude, when you're driving.

Speaker 2

Well, you're talking about like getting a For a regular golf game.

Speaker 1

Yeah, that's a good idea.

Speaker 2

Yeah, that's pretty cool because you track your ball Well.

Speaker 1

Even practice though, but I'm saying, on a golf course you are only supposed to use one ball, right, you know so, like even if you have two or three.

Speaker 2

Oh, that sucks. That's what I'm saying.

Speaker 1

So if you're a really good golfer, like you're tracking your ball, like that's a really good fucking idea. It really is. All you got to do is use a Other things like that.

Speaker 2

You see how far it goes, track it where it is, walk to it, pick it up. Bam, you just need one or three, ladies and gentlemen, and I'm talking about a whole freaking box. Get out of here, come on, cut it out, get out of here.

Speaker 1

Walk away, walk away, walk away, walk away.

Speaker 2

Oh, look at the fingers. The fingers. That's right.

Speaker 1

Do you remember the fucking, the skateboards?

Speaker 2

Oh yeah, the fucking, those are cool, the flip.

Speaker 1

Yeah, you know those people at competitions and shit out there.

Jesses Trump Conspiracy Theory

Speaker 2

They did. Yeah, they're really good at them.

Speaker 1

I'm sorry, we're in the car today, so if you're a little rumble every once in a while, that's the engine kicking up, kicking up All electric. All electric. You know what I mean. Got a little generator In this bitch Starting this thing up.

Speaker 2

You know what I mean.

Speaker 1

That'll do our thing, cause uh Go do some Pops, pops, some stuff, family stuff that's it.

Speaker 2

Yeah, that's it.

Speaker 1

You know they do those Fucking competitions.

Speaker 2

Yeah, that's crazy. Skateboards and all that Hell yeah, they're really good. That With the fingers Can you believe?

Speaker 1

that Kick flipping, like you said, that's awesome.

Speaker 2

I can't believe that shit.

Speaker 1

Oh my god, even the BMW BMX bikes.

Speaker 2

Yeah, that was crazy. I don't know how people made tricks with those.

Speaker 1

That was stupid.

Speaker 2

Look at him flying.

Speaker 1

I know, look, I'm doing a hundred spins, I thought the whole thing would never last.

Speaker 2

It lasted, it did and then, like famous bikes, came out and stuff it really did dude. I had the Tony Hawk one with the skeleton, the bird skeleton.

Speaker 1

Oh, I forgot.

Speaker 2

You can get different decks and stuff, yeah, and you can take the tires off and lose them and look for them under your bed Wow, yeah, holy shit.

Speaker 1

That's bringing back old memories, dude.

Speaker 2

And you had to get the right ones too, and you could take the grip off and put your own Wow yeah.

Speaker 1

That's ridiculous.

Speaker 2

It reminds me of like.

Speaker 1

GI Joe's.

Speaker 2

It reminds me of when I was like a little kid.

Speaker 1

You know when you're a little kid. You just looked at things differently. Dude, like just looking at the world you would look at like a tree.

Speaker 2

I was just thinking that a tree.

Speaker 1

It'd be like that would be such a sick place to put a GI Joe up there and like have him do this with a girl, like start a war up there and have that my own.

Speaker 2

That would be pretty cool actually, you know what I mean, like with my action figures.

Speaker 1

I would always think of that. Like, oh, in the woods, what a cool place would be to set up my action figures.

Speaker 2

I would think different, though. I would just stare at a tree and be like I wonder what it would be to be you.

Speaker 1

All right, guys. If you don't know, kev has an obsession with becoming a tree. I love being a tree. No, no, no, no, no. This is like you've mentioned this. Have I the last four times we've been together? Is that you? Just you would love to be a tree, yeah.

Speaker 2

Well, I better stop it, because I want to be a tree. No, but you know what's? Crazy too.

Speaker 1

Reading books about fucking people being trees and other people trying to change them back from being a tree. And they're like no, I love being a tree. Yeah, so like you might have something on your fucking hands, right, friend? No, Damn, Kev's on point. Lately Kev's been on point. I walk outside my door. I don't like. Kev's phone got run over. We talked about this last week, so now Kevin's back in business. I am Hello, yeah.

Speaker 2

He's back on.

Speaker 1

He's got an iPhone 7 now. He upgraded.

Speaker 2

Yes, my man's up there.

Speaker 1

So he's climbing up, so he's got his laptop out there, right, and he's on a phone call. I'm like that thing's fucking what. How the fuck is that he forgot how to make phone calls and shit on my wifi. That shit was crazy. I was like, oh shit, yeah, cause he got the fucking password saved. He was close enough. Cause, shit, I love it, the fuck, the password saved in there. It was close enough. You were sitting on the stoop.

Speaker 2

I was like ah, good shit, Freaking beautiful Bro. I love it, I love it, I love it.

Speaker 1

You're good You're diving in.

Speaker 2

I really am. I love it Finding new things and all that Right and it's like things that you before I'm sure I was like what the heck? I'm never going to.

Speaker 1

Yeah, I can't understand. There's no point in even trying to learn.

Speaker 2

I got five things open. I'm using all of them at once, exactly, exactly dude Talk about editing and watching WWE at the same time. Yeah, it's fucking beautiful guys.

Speaker 1

Yes, and I know you're in the middle of, because, before we came here, trump got shot.

Speaker 2

Yeah, ladies and gentlemen, he didn't believe me. I was like, oh my God, let's put it on the TV, put it on the TV, put it on the news On the computer, which I don't know how the fuck he's doing this.

Speaker 1

So he's watching the news on the computer. I guess the internet lets you watch.

Speaker 2

No, it's TV.

Speaker 1

Yeah, I guess you. I don't know what the fuck See, he's telling me he's watching. I don't know, but you're watching something and it popped up.

Speaker 2

Yeah, so I see Donald Trump and he's covered with agents or whatever they call them. I didn't believe you. He gets up and he's just like raising his hand in the air and he's like we got this, yeah, and there's blood on his ear coming down.

Speaker 1

Wait, but the part was you're like he got shot.

Speaker 2

Yeah, that's the number one thing I said.

Speaker 1

He didn't get shot dude.

Speaker 2

Because I'm not watching at all, but he had a red hat.

Speaker 1

Yes, you're like oh no, he didn't get shot, it was just his red hat.

Speaker 2

Red hat, yeah, and.

Speaker 1

I started dying laughing because I'm like I know he didn't get shot. And then all of a sudden, you're dude, no, wait, he did get shot. I was like, wait, no, is it a hat dude, or did he get shot? Yo, he got shot. I run over to the computer. Trump is saying, like people are like holding him back from the gunner as he's trying, like I'll come out Shit's wild, yeah. And there's blood dripping down his ear While he's going Love you people.

Speaker 2

It's okay, we got this, don't worry about me.

Speaker 1

I just want to know if anyone Behind him, around him, had to take the bullet or gotten shot. Because, yeah, because everybody behind him.

Speaker 2

They're like.

Speaker 1

Yeah, what's going on? You okay, old man.

Speaker 2

They had no idea what happened. Yeah, and then behind them where the bullets were being shot.

Speaker 1

So what did I say? What was my theory?

Speaker 2

Maybe he like got people.

Speaker 1

These Nats people were by the beach Natsy poos. What was this fucking?

Speaker 2

But I think he could Hire some people too.

Speaker 1

So he can get you. No, maybe just like fake the whole thing. Cause, right around the election, what would be a great Way for him To Get some people on his side? Yeah, yeah Would be to just To like have an assassination attempt and then all of a sudden, like you know, act like don't hold me back, I'm coming after him, like I don't care who's trying to kill me. Like.

Speaker 2

Right, and I have to watch that video again because he said I want to, I want to hear the gunshots and how far they were.

Speaker 1

Fuck happened? Yes, because all I heard was just you tell me, I think.

Speaker 2

I even put in slow motion To you, did you put in slow motion. You found the spot like what the heck? What's in my?

Speaker 1

Something, yeah, yeah, but think about it. I put a little pouch or something like that. It's like by radio frequency, so they press a button whenever and it explodes.

Speaker 2

No, no, it starts blowing by the air.

Speaker 1

At first he was going like this, so it could be on his or yeah, he could have done something like that, like wrestlers do, yeah, they just cut themselves. It could have been something crazy.

Speaker 2

You know why we're saying this? Because I hope it's not true. I hope he didn't get shot.

Speaker 1

I hope he didn't get shot too, but I think that if he did do that he's a genius yeah.

Speaker 2

And because everyone else is using the. If you gotta, bro, think about how. Think about like A, b, c.

Speaker 1

You know what I'm BEC Always be cheating my friend, always be cheating Meaning looking for that loophole, because cheating in the way that the government, that the rich people do that's what I've learned, that's what I've been trying to learn Is not do anything illegal. Yeah, but the fine print read that shit, because if it's not in there, it means that I could do it. Right. You could say I can't, yeah, but technically I can, and if I know that I can, that's why these donations happen. That's why rich people are easier to make money.

Speaker 1

I saw this chart too. They usually say like the 1% or the 0.1% have all the money, or whatever. Brother, this kid broke it down to like even further. And today it's like eight people or nine people are like own the majority of the world's wealth. It's ridiculous. It's a lot of money. Like eight or nine people like Warren Buffett, bill Gates, all those motherfuckers Because the more money you have like Oprah, it's easier to make. So you have it breaking down. Now it goes even farther. So now it's only really like 200 people, 200 to 300 people, that make up this tax bracket of the 1% that we don't even know who's in.

Speaker 1

I know exactly what percent is really like Zero point something, something. 96 point something, something something. Nine six thousand percent, jesus Christ. Yes, something needs to change. It's getting bad. Dude, I'm walking in the stores and a garbage can, a plastic garbage can four dollars and fifty six cents.

Speaker 2

Wow, go to the dollar store.

Speaker 1

But then it breaks after two weeks. Dude, that's one thing. I'd rather buy quality over quantity, because I know it's going to last. I'll go in the middle. I'll always go in the middle.

Speaker 2

I know exactly what you're talking about, because the bad food that we're eating is actually good and the good food is actually bad for us. Think about it. Yes, yes, what they say.

Speaker 1

Yeah, yes, because they give us the food pyramid, yeah, and they tell us that that's fucking good, but really it's catalogs paid for the whole fucking thing, yep.

Speaker 2

So it's like the same concept.

Speaker 1

Yeah. So they're telling us yeah, you're absolutely right. Concept yeah. So they're telling us yeah, you're absolutely right. It's ridiculous, it's getting crazy and it's to the point.

Speaker 2

I didn't know it was opposite day, every fucking day.

Speaker 1

I'm losing my mind.

Speaker 2

I don't even have brain cells. I'm just talking because God's helping me talk.

Speaker 1

That's the honest to God truth I'm telling you. I really wish I could keep my mouth shut sometimes, because I just get myself in trouble.

Speaker 2

Well, ladies and gentlemen, I'm going to break it down to you right now. So here's talking about rich people and how they have so much money. Now, they don't need all that money, but you know what Actually they do. Now, why do?

Speaker 1

they need that money?

Speaker 2

Yeah, they do, Because think about how bad the world is right and think about everything getting messed up and people just giving up because the world's so bad. So the next thing is World War III. I'm not trying to scare you, but that's what's happening. So when World War.

Speaker 2

III happens. All the rich people are going to get their own. They can even make a. They already have a goal. Right now. They have shelters in their house underneath oh yeah, self-made, or even, if they got someone to build it, doom shelters, whatever they. You know it's scary, I know, but you know what. And there's some people that don't have them, but they have enough money to travel to get into that shelter or pay for it. They have to pay for it. It's a lot of money. My sister's been talking about it too. She knows. You know, now, all those people that have money. You have to get up there for that, and all these people know that's why it's time.

Speaker 1

It's a scary thing. It's time to fucking take control of that, fucking Exactly. Take control while you can, right now, before it gets really bad and start saving.

Speaker 2

You know what it's not saving?

Speaker 1

Start investing and start learning about the capitalist system that we have.

Speaker 2

It's too late? No, it's not.

Needle Phobia

Speaker 1

Right now. It is the perfect for us right now. It is the perfect time to jump into the stock market to jump into Roth IRAs and stuff like that. Are you guys going to do that. I've been huge into putting away right now.

Speaker 2

Of course, that's what it should be.

Speaker 1

I've been paying off my debts. My fucking credit score has been going up. I've been paying off my debts slowly, very slowly, but it's just getting to the point where it's I don't even have money left over for anything else, because that's life. That's what they want.

Speaker 2

That's how you're supposed to live your life now. These days, I put every extra dollar I have towards this Yep. If you're not rich. That's what's going to happen.

Speaker 1

It's crazy, it's crazy, but eventually it's going to change my dad's on retirement.

Speaker 2

He's healthy and stuff and doing all this stuff. But my mom's on retirement too. With my dad they have the right to have whatever money they have and be comfortable, but other people they're working their ass off every day, spending paycheck to paycheck. They have to work. You know there's got to be another way to stay home, take care of your family, live your life every day and work at home.

Speaker 1

Make it easy for everybody. How is your dad doing? Is he doing better? He's doing good.

Speaker 2

He's doing good, he's back to his normal self and all that. It's just he has little white blood cells.

Speaker 1

Yeah.

Speaker 2

So that's the only thing.

Speaker 1

They're trying to make more cells I have no idea what that means, but I hope that he gets better. You know my dad goes in for heart surgery or something like that. It's scary. Look at you getting phone calls now Getting phone calls.

Speaker 2

now you want to break this one. No, no, no.

Speaker 1

Okay, I'm just saying no we're not running over that, oh come on, got a nice car here he goes in for some type of like I don't know. They're putting a camera up his arm, yeah, and going into his heart to see if there's like any type of clog or any type of something like that. Yeah, and if there is, they'll put a stint in Right and that's good. So, like, basically, it's heart surgery, you know.

I don't know, I think I'd rather get a prostate exam than get a fucking spot. What's that? It's when they like fucking put fingers up your ass. Okay, that's lovely. I think I would rather do. I'm serious. I hate needles so much. Dude Like needles have scarred me for life.

Speaker 2

Well, ask them if they can go around the needle, oh God.

Speaker 1

Oh, update, update, oh shit, update. So I finally got in touch with my fucking the state health inspector.

Speaker 1

I'll tell you about that Because we got that fucking air test back right and the air test came. I did a little more digging on it because it's like 22 pages. I ran it through a couple different GPTs that I made for that particular chat and it gave me the same response each time. So I know that it was accurate. I told it to fact check it based off the web, not off of Reddit, all that other shit. Yeah, because you could do certain things like that. People don't know that you could set it up to just there's GPTs that just fact check, of course, the scientific pages and shit like that. Yeah, like not the Onion and Bloomberg, you know what.

Speaker 1

I mean they actually do real shit. Yeah, this saying that like, yeah, the main living condition was okay, which turned out to be my room, basically, because I put the filters in and I put the dehumidifiers in all that stuff. That's what he meant by the main living area, because we were really talking about my room. That's why he meant main living space. Yeah, other living space had so many particulates in the air, not black mold or anything like that, but just so many particulates in the air Right, and fungi and all this stuff, that they couldn't tell you be certain of how much of each is there. Is there, but there's there something there. Yeah, they have to test it. When I got sick, I got sick from the same type of okay, because I'm allergic, I guess, to that type of fungus yeah, and it's right there in the fucking paperwork.

Speaker 1

Well, so I luckily I won't. I didn't wake up. Wow, so I luckily I didn't wake up. I stayed up because I knew. I wouldn't wake up at fucking 830 in the morning Of course I called the state health inspector.

Speaker 2

Yeah.

Speaker 1

And he didn't answer. So I called the county health inspector and this dude answered Awesome dude, phil shout outs Phil. Yeah, he gave me the best advice. He said start at the top. He said you work your way to the top, take pictures. It's sad I hear about this every day. He goes, I'm code enforcement, he goes, I can't do anything. He goes only buildings of three and under, like three different units, or under, he goes. That's a big complex. He goes. But here is what the number to call and this is what I recommend you do is you start at the top.

Speaker 2

And.

Speaker 1

I mean? What do you mean? He's like governor, state lieutenant governor, health inspector, state health inspector, county health inspector and. Cc everybody from the top to the bottom, and make sure that they see that you sent it to all these people and at the very bottom of that list, glenwood apartments maintenance, the front desk, all the people at Glenwood that kept ignoring us for a year about this HVAC system.

Speaker 1

Yeah, said they were going to clean and then send people over for a pool cleaner. And we look at our lease and it says they're not allowed to use anything that has any type of bleach or anything in it, because on drywall, because it can just go right through the drywall and it's acidic or whatever. The fuck.

Speaker 1

They're just making the drywall soft and brittle and that can start forcing debris. Yeah, it's crazy dude. It could just rot the drywall and they would just send them in with fucking pool cleaner. Two dudes didn't speak English. You probably don't even have their fucking you know. Just clean something so dangerous. No masks, just gloves. Whoa, yeah, just go in there and clean.

Speaker 1

I don't know clean at all. And if you see the pictures it's like ridiculous how bad. Like the HVAC system, like You've got to clean this shit. It's literally looked like Bob the Builder's 10-year-old son with fucking Legos. With Legos Just moved to tools, wow, and had no idea what he was doing.

Speaker 2

Literally like me. You got a pipe and he's hitting it with a hammer.

Speaker 1

It would have looked like me trying to put together an HVAC. It's ridiculous, it's like pink foam here, something hanging from the wall. It's fucking crazy dude. Obviously and I showed you the other buildings too, and they all have white veins going through in the exact same spots like it's a very odd thing, though.

Speaker 1

There's weird going on, and so I sent that letter. I sent them out a nice letter, told them about it, put the report in it, put the pictures in it. Four hours later, yeah, I'm outside smoking a cigarette on the back deck. Yeah, who do I see walking behind? I don't know, but two people, three people with badges, walk over to the sub basement. I'm like, oh, hey, how you doing? Guys all like buffed up, yeah, hey, hey, how are you?

Speaker 1

He's talking to this girl. He's like yeah, so this sub basement sub door's rotted to hell, bro, and you saw it. He's like oh so, yeah, so this is regular. You know, just over the weather damage ozing up. He goes yeah, I see that that's just normal. The water down there, that's normal. Always, sub-pumps can leave a little bit of water. My mold guy said that that's not supposed to happen. He's like there's never supposed to be water left on the top of it, either the guy who does construction and mold and remediation and all that shit is wrong or the guy who's trying to rip me off and not do any work is wrong.

Speaker 1

Who told me also to begin with that none of this was mold, it was just mildew, it was just dirt, so, uh. So then I was like. Then I was like he's like do I, can I come in and talk like human being? I was like, yeah, come on, dude, come on in, show you, everything Comes in. It's like the sub-basement first of all. If you're telling me there's no mold down there, how come nobody wants to go down there? Yeah, my optimum guy will not go down there.

Speaker 2

Did he go down there I?

Speaker 1

need to get my internet fixed. No, they won't go down there. See, my internet won't get fixed because no one will go down there. Wow, yeah, fixed because no one will go down there. Wow, yeah, so something's got to happen. Yeah, so if there's no mold down there, what's going on? If that's perfectly normal, then why the fuck is the internet down there and how am I going to get it fixed? Exactly one. So I like, during this letter, I requested like mold remediation, like all, like you know, make sure, because everyone in that building has asthma. Like, over the course of a long period of time staying in that building, people have been just catching colds more often, and like there's something wrong. You know there's something going on in that building and he knew, like you could see it in his face. Like he's like, like you have pictures.

Speaker 1

And I was like, oh yeah, I have pictures because I told you I cleaned out the kitchen when my parents went out on 4th of July, I tore apart the kitchen and I found there was a vent behind where my parents have the microwave and shit like that, which I don't even think they knew about. They forgot, but everything was clean. My mom always cleans around there. Thing is you look, you know, like that, sometimes they have the cobwebs, like just cobwebs grow fast. Right there's a cobweb, but behind the cobweb is you see the vent and there's black spots like on the oh yeah, which is the same shit that's in a track, so it's obviously inside. Yeah, he saw that. And then I showed him the baking soda that was standing like right in front of him. All the air was hitting it.

Speaker 1

Oh, you know it's been there for probably like six, seven months. No White spot like our black spots all over. Yeah, baking so it lasts forever, bro, right, but dude, black spots all inside of it. I have pictures of all of it. Cutting boards, black spots on them, yeah, but all sitting right next to that vent.

Speaker 1

I closed that vent, I cleaned the shit out of it yeah, fucking made sure it's not coming through and I took off. When I showed him the pictures, bro, he took his hat off and like rubbed his hand through. I was like, yeah, I got you now bitch. He's like oh, okay, so what do you want us to do? Because I kept telling him, going back and forth, because I'm like yo, because he doesn't understand.

Speaker 1

I'm like you see these windows, the cracks around all these windows, like the little cracks? He's like well, we're talking about mold now. I'm like, yeah, yeah, yeah, this has to do with this, because that's moisture. You're laying moisture into my fucking house. One energy is being lost by me, so that's more on my energy bill. I'm not keeping in air conditioning or heat. It's going through and it's going into the walls, yeah, which means that there's some type of moisture being caught by something in those walls. So over the course of how long? Something's obviously going on inside your fucking walls. That's not normal for there to be, especially inside of a bathroom, on a window. And then you go around to the back side of the window and the back side of the window is barely holding on on the outside, like are you kidding me? Like this shit's a joke and he says it's supposed to be like that, like trying to act like we're literally, like we're stupid. I'm trying to help you, I'm going to help everything. So what do you want us to do?

Speaker 1

I was like I want my windows I gave a list of the dude who came by earlier. I want my windows checked and re-caulked. I want new uh window screens on all the windows. Yeah, I want the doors resealed and like re-rubbered. You know what I mean. Make sure that there's nothing coming in, because the front door is like what do you saw? It's cracked right open. It's ridiculous, dude, absolutely ridiculous. And the guy said there's so much like the air test from outside, right outside our door. There's a lot of pathogens right outside. If there's no gap, nothing to hold, like you know, seal my door, that's coming in, dude, and you could see it right on the crevices of when the door and the like the floor meet, like no matter how hard you scrub, that shit doesn't come out. You know what?

Speaker 1

I mean yeah it's because that has not been sealed correctly. I see, these people just don't know what the fuck they're doing. They hired people to do it in two seconds and just get the fuck out of there. Well, of course.

Speaker 1

I said I want my bathroom resealed and I want you to fucking go in that sub-basement, do the mold and deal with the HVAC unit. Mm-hmm, all right, Well, all right, well, we gotta figure this out. We're gonna go over this report. I want to talk to the guy who did the mold thing because the sub-basement's absolutely fine. I was like, bro, the sub-basement isn't fine, I will bet my life on it. I will bet my life on it. And he's like, all right, all right, I'm, I'm trying to go home, we'll try, we'll figure this out. Oh, like dou, all right, I'm trying to go home, we'll figure this out. Douchebag, right, I'm trying to help you. Two hours later, phone call In your lease it says you're not allowed to have a bird. We lived there for 11 years. My mom got confirmation. I remember I was actually there in the leasing office with her when she signed the lease Right and she made sure and she paid extra money.

Speaker 2

Right.

Speaker 1

Every month for a dog and a bird Right. And plus we have their service animals Right. My mom had them as emotional support animals, right. So they can't say shit, exactly. So this asshole who said he was trying to help us tries to get us evicted two hours later. Oh, that's nice, right. There you go. So now my heart's palpitating because now I'm worried about my fucking boy, chewy, having to bounce. And even the guy who came through the mold said that he would be the first one affected by black mold. So, like you would know, he's like a great. That's cool. I don't know if you've ever seen that movie, bird cage on netflix.

Birds Are Awesome/ Birdcage

Speaker 1

No, it's actually pretty cool. It's identical. There was this invisible thing that was killing people in this thing in this show.

Speaker 1

Making people go crazy, and the only way to tell it was around were birds were the only thing that were around, and they went nuts whenever it was around, so people would carry them birds around in cages. It was called bird cage, I see. Yeah, so like bird, like he was actually like, he's a warning sign. It's like there's black mold. I got to see that. So that's crazy, Like you know what I mean. So we know that it's not black mold, but as far as far as it can tell right now, I know that it's not black mold in our area. Maybe it is in the HVAC room. I don't know, dude, I'm not a mold expert, but I know that sub-basement he said it's definitely some type of black mold. Black mold's very hard to grow, though, but other molds are just as dangerous. Yeah, so I got really sick, dude. Really sick Could be mixed. I'm telling you, dude, something's fucking going on, and if, like, if anyone has any any recommendations for lawyers that are willing to like that actually have the money to like, go up against them, that whole building will gladly, gladly sign. That whole building will gladly gladly sign.

Speaker 1

There's kids in that building, dude. Newborn babies. Newborn babies With asthma. Now, With asthma. Yeah, Just developing asthma. Three or four. She's like four or five years old now she has asthma, Didn't before? It's crazy man, Absolutely crazy. You have older ladies catching asthma.

Speaker 2
