This That And The Other
This That And The Other
21. What Restaurant Has The Best Ice, Milkshakes, Ice Cream, And Much More
Ever wondered how to keep your cool amidst summer's sweltering heat? Join us for a laid-back Sunday evening as we navigate the peaceful sounds of nature, interrupted by a rowdy cockatoo and a speedy water patrol boat. We'll share personal tales of dealing with oppressive heat, from heat exhaustion concerns to the challenges of maintaining our hair care routines in such sticky weather. Despite the humidity, we end with a light-hearted embrace of the summer ambiance that has its unique charm.
Next, let's talk pools—both above-ground and in-ground. After a rare rain in Alabama, local vegetation is thriving, but our new above-ground pool wasn't as lucky, thanks to some mischievous local cats. We explore humorous alternatives like kiddie pools and discuss the hefty price tag of in-ground pool maintenance. From there, we dive (pun intended) into eye care woes, touching on the difficulties of wearing contacts while swimming and pondering the potential benefits of LASIK surgery.
Finally, let's chill out with a chat about specialized ice makers and the joy they bring. We reminisce about receiving one as a memorable Christmas anniversary gift and debate the best fast-food joints based on their ice quality, with Chick-fil-A taking a top spot. Our conversation then shifts to favorite frozen treats and the best places for ice cream and milkshakes, sparking memories of childhood delights. Wrapping up, we delve into documentaries and current events, sharing our thoughts on Gypsy Rose's story and reflecting on the recent passing of notable figures. Tune in for a well-rounded mix of humor, personal anecdotes, and thoughtful reflections.

hey, hey, folks, we're back on. A beautiful sunday evening, sun's going down, birds are chirping. Sunday evening, sun's going down.
Speaker 2:Birds are chirping, something's chirping.
Speaker 1:Not a cool breeze. I know that. No, breeze I hear our little doggies inside, just a barking.
Speaker 2:I can't hear them. You're not. I see our friends down in the water though.
Speaker 1:I do hear that crazy bird two houses down, that cockatoo. Yeah, let's see if you can hear it. Surely people can hear that. I guess, what's going on?
Speaker 2:It's hot out here.
Speaker 1:We just watched the water patrol go by with its lights on and siren Don't know where he's going, but he was a-booking.
Speaker 2:He sure was. I don't like that. Makes me nervous that something's happened.
Speaker 1:We had one person that died on the lake last week.
Speaker 2:Yeah, he sure was I don't like that.
Speaker 1:It makes me nervous that something's happened. We had one person that died on the lake last week. Yeah, Was it?
Speaker 2:I heard that it was heat exhaustion, and then he fell in the water and drowned.
Speaker 1:The one that I told you about he was working, wasn't actually a younger boy? Yeah, he was working. Yeah, is that true? I don't know. Okay, that's what I was told today. I don't know?
Speaker 2:Yeah, I just know that I found out he was on a job.
Speaker 1:Yeah, so yeah, I was a younger guy, 19 years old. Yeah, that's bad, hate that.
Speaker 2:Yep, All right so. It's hot out here.
Speaker 1:It is hot, it's muggy. You got a little fan. You got this Roby battery operated fan that's blowing on you.
Speaker 2:I wish I had it. This is not doing good for my hair tomorrow.
Speaker 1:You'll have to wash it tonight Because I curled it today. You'll have to wash it tonight.
Speaker 2:I ain't washing it. It can go, something will happen to it.
Speaker 1:This humidity is not good for when you curl your hair, like I couldn't go, like not washing my hair in the morning, like getting up and I'm used to it now.
Speaker 2:It don't bother me, but you trained your hair. You said You're right.
Speaker 1:I don't understand that You're right. It just keeps it from getting as greasy now. Yeah it doesn't get. Because it's trained. Is that what you're saying?
Speaker 2:And age may have a little bit to do with it, because everything on me is dry.
Speaker 1:now Age, that's nice.
Speaker 2:I know my face is so dry. It's horrible.
Speaker 1:Anyway, you can't blame it on the time of year.
Speaker 2:No.
Speaker 1:Because it's hot and sticky.
Speaker 2:Yeah, bad hot.
Speaker 1:We actually got rain just a little while ago. It's the first time it's rained in I'm going to say three weeks.
Speaker 2:For what? Maybe 20?
Speaker 1:minutes. It might be a month, I don't know. I think it's been a month.
Speaker 2:We've had showers in Jasper, but they never made it to us.
Speaker 1:We're in the middle of Alabama, and it'd be in the summer. We get a pop-up shower all the time, usually this time of year. I mean, of course it is dry, but we've had a long dry spell. All the grass is dead, everything's dead, people's plants, shrubs, everything's done. Hadn't had to cut grass in two weeks.
Speaker 2:I know Didn't bother me a bit.
Speaker 1:I like cutting grass too but this year didn't bother me this time because it's been so hot.
Speaker 2:All right, so you were saying so last week we talked about my new pool. I got.
Speaker 1:Above ground or in ground.
Speaker 2:Above ground. Jody didn't post that picture like you said he was going to, so he moved it.
Speaker 1:I'll get right on that here in a minute.
Speaker 2:He moved it out of the no. No, no, no, this happened before you moved it the top. Okay, so it's on our concrete. We have a little concrete patio where.
Speaker 1:I usually park Carport.
Speaker 2:Where I usually park. So I hadn't been pulling all the way down, because I had my pool there and I was going to get back in it One day. We come home from work and these unwanted creatures that we have have poked a hole in it.
Speaker 1:Called cats.
Speaker 2:They are unwanted.
Speaker 1:Now you're accusing them without knowing for sure.
Speaker 2:They did it. I know they did Because I don't like them and they don't like me Are you sure about that?
Speaker 1:I'm pretty sure.
Speaker 2:Or you did it.
Speaker 1:Well, that might be true.
Speaker 2:I don't think you would do it. If I'd have poked a hole in it, I'd have poked a hole in every single layer and the water would be leaking out. Because you would have had to buy me another one and you would have had to blow it up again, so I don't think you did it.
Speaker 1:No.
Speaker 2:I don't think you did it. So now he's dumped the water out of it and pulled it over to the side. Well, I think there's a hole in the bottom of it.
Speaker 1:Probably so.
Speaker 2:So all you got now is like one middle part. Now how am I supposed to use that?
Speaker 1:It's a $25 kiddie pool. What do you expect? It's $20. Just get one of those blue hard plastic ones.
Speaker 2:You won't, let me have it.
Speaker 1:Or get the turtle sandbox. We'll just put water in it.
Speaker 2:Oh, that would work.
Speaker 1:Put water in it instead. That don't hold much, though. But, I'm not very tall, so I feel like I could probably stretch out in there On that. I don't even know if butt cheeks could get wet and something like that Seriously, it's not deep.
Speaker 2:Yeah, is it not too deep? No, maybe six inches. Maybe I'll just buy the plastic kiddie pools, the blue plastic ones.
Speaker 1:That's what I just said.
Speaker 2:You said the turtle.
Speaker 1:Before that I said the blue ones, the plastic ones.
Speaker 2:Oh, that's not what I was thinking of. I was thinking of, like, the bigger ones. I guess I wasn't thinking of that blue one. So yeah, now I don't know what I'm going to do. I've got to have a pool.
Speaker 1:How much does an in-ground pool cost nowadays?
Speaker 2:Oh, there's no telling, I have no idea.
Speaker 1:I used to think for like $10,000.
Speaker 2:I think they're a lot more than that. I think so. I think maybe it depends on Because of inflation.
Speaker 1:you think it's a little bit higher, Maybe I?
Speaker 2:think it depends on too. You know, nowadays people are getting these salt pools instead of just the Sea salt. Chlorine. What is it? Is that what it is?
Speaker 1:I don't know why are they getting salt pools?
Speaker 2:I thought it was easier to take care of, but I don't know.
Speaker 1:Does that not burn your eyes, though, when you're underwater? I?
Speaker 2:don't think so.
Speaker 1:Do you open your eyes underwater?
Speaker 2:I don't think so.
Speaker 1:Like in a regular pool.
Speaker 2:It's been a long time since I've been. No, because I have contacts.
Speaker 1:Why don't you rock and stop getting further away from it and coming?
Speaker 2:closer. I can't help it you can hear me. She's rocking over there and like she's rocking my rocking chair far away from the mic. Then close to the mic, it's not bad and close to the mic.
Speaker 1:It's not bad. No, I don't open my eyes underwater. I got contacts. Can't open my eyes. Well, no, yeah, I lose my contacts. I'm gonna go swimming.
Speaker 2:I have to take my contacts out and then I can't see, so I don't like to do that, me too need to have that what is it?
Speaker 1:called you get LASIK LASIK Need to have LASIK eye surgery.
Speaker 2:Yeah, that would fix it. I don't know why we've never looked into that.
Speaker 1:I figure I'm not a candidate for it. I don't know why, Because I've had an eye surgery before and I just figured it's going to affect Blister. Yeah, I had to have a laser.
Speaker 2:You've had all kinds of weird things, I know.
Speaker 1:I've still got issues, don't I?
Speaker 2:Mm. Yeah, we won't go there.
Speaker 1:From the neck. Did you see that big flop From the neck down? We're not talking about the brain.
Speaker 2:You said that big flop.
Speaker 1:I did not, but I'm sure it's a fish.
Speaker 2:Maybe, so anyway, I don't think I'm going to be able to use my pole again.
Speaker 1:Well, no, you're not.
Speaker 2:Well, what am I going to do?
Speaker 1:Because you said it's got a hole in it.
Speaker 2:We're going to try it. I'm going to make you blow the bottom one up.
Speaker 1:You only used it one time anyway, I know and I want to use it again.
Speaker 2:You used it on the 4th of July, uh-huh.
Speaker 1:That was on a Thursday.
Speaker 2:Oh really. So I'm in there puking and pooing my guts, and you want me to come out here? No, are you?
Speaker 1:talking about the day after the 4th. Was it that weekend?
Speaker 2:No, or the next one, all right, so let's go back to the 4th, then the 4th was on a Thursday.
Speaker 1:What did you do Friday? Did I see your butt in the pool?
Speaker 2:No, what about that Saturday? No, because you, you went to podcast. I did have to podcast, so I'm not sitting out here by myself.
Speaker 1:Why.
Speaker 2:Because somebody will get me.
Speaker 1:In your driveway.
Speaker 2:Yes, nobody around yes.
Speaker 1:So that Saturday you wasn't in it, that Sunday you wasn't in it. Monday, tuesday, wednesday, thursday, friday, then you were sick.
Speaker 2:You can't do it during the week. I'm just saying.
Speaker 1:You can't do it during the week.
Speaker 2:I'm not doing it on a Sunday because I've got to go back to church on Sunday night. Saturday, you had me doing something else.
Speaker 1:I fast-forwarded to the next weekend.
Speaker 2:Saturday you had me doing something else, no that was when you were sick. Not Fourth of July weekend.
Speaker 1:Okay, I Working on the room, probably Probably. Or a studio that I'm trying to finish and I can't finish. My goodness, I'm trying, you're good. I did put a window in.
Speaker 2:You did I forgot about that.
Speaker 1:I replaced the window.
Speaker 2:You think you could take it back and get us a black one, Because I think I really want black windows. It looks really good what I've seen.
Speaker 1:I would rather paint it instead of trying to take that booker back out and put another one in because I think you need to take it out I'll just tell you replacing a window by yourself and why is that?
Speaker 2:you got a 19 year old that could help you? You just won't ask.
Speaker 1:No, he did he held it in place. Well, I tried to get it and he hastily tried to help me level it and all that stuff. So he did help but, some stuff you just can't. If you got two people, only one can do certain things, and I was the one so I did.
Speaker 2:You got to teach him I did utilize him some.
Speaker 1:You got to teach him Well it's hard to teach somebody that don't want to be taught. I have some birds coming in, but when you're young, it's you know, when you're trying to. Well, it's not like when I was growing up. You know you had to. You learned how to change your own oil.
Speaker 2:That was your only choice.
Speaker 1:You had to, you learned how to. You know everything about your tires, all this kind of stuff, just daily maintenance, weekly maintenance, monthly maintenance. You just that was just part of life. You know, my dad never would have paid for an oil change.
Speaker 2:No, mine either. Mine won't pay for a car wash or an oil change, but nowadays you have to.
Speaker 1:Oh, and I forgot about this. So when I took, because now you have to have a special oil wrench or whatever to get the filter, filter wrench, whatever it's called, to get the filter off on my truck, so I didn't take it, you don't?
Speaker 2:even have a new new truck either.
Speaker 1:I know 15?. It's a 16.
Speaker 2:2016.
Speaker 1:So I didn't take it to the dealership where I bought it from, because it's $125 for the oil change. Now They've jumped up their price like $35 and it's crazy. So let me finish.
Speaker 2:I got's crazy, so let me finish. I go to Women's Tuesday.
Speaker 1:Let me finish. Please let me finish my statement before you interrupt me, I'll take it next time, so I took it to the women's place that you're talking about.
Speaker 2:Ladies Day. You didn't take it on Ladies Day.
Speaker 1:No, I didn't take it on Ladies ain't no lady, that's right.
Speaker 1:So I took it there and so they're changing my oil. And then they say I know the guy's got an oily rag and he's coming up to to me because I'm sitting in the truck right. And he said you see this oil filter right here. And I was like, yeah. He said, well, you see this new one that they're. He said this is the one that actually goes in your truck. The one that's in there is not the right one. I was like you got to be kidding me. So, long story short, I told him I said you know, when I got done I'm going down the dealership and and ask him about it, where you usually have it changed.
Speaker 1:Well, I usually have it changed and where I bought the truck. Now, this ain't this make and model, is not the the type of the dealership. I've got a toyota. The dealership's a chevy dealership. So, uh, they said that in the Chevy handbook or whatever that it tells them this oil filter. But I looked it up and there's nothing. This small oil filter does not go in my truck, it's a bigger one.
Speaker 2:You said it was twice the size.
Speaker 1:Twice the size of the one you know. The guy was real nice, I was real nice. I just wanted to get to the bottom of it and make sure that they knew that they're not putting the right one in it.
Speaker 2:You went back down there.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:To the.
Speaker 1:To the dealership.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:Yeah, for about 30 minutes talked to them To the point, like I told them. I said don't apologize again. I mean because I know you didn't do it. Whoever one of your did, you say I'm not coming back I told him I that's the reason that I said my I've got my old chains here since I bought the truck.
Speaker 2:I said I've got my old chain and the truck before that we bought there for two years.
Speaker 1:I've got my old change here. I said, and y'all jumped up y'all's prices, so I'm not paying 125. I said so. I went to this other place. I said they're the ones that's telling me it's wrong. I researched it and now I'm back to let you know.
Speaker 2:So that's what I was doing oh, sorry you done over there, I was singing that I'm trying to tell a story and you're over there that just made me think of a song singing, and dancing, all right.
Speaker 1:So that's my oil change. So so oil change. Oil change Change out a window. Almost done, putting flooring. What is it? Vinyl, what is the flooring I'm putting in?
Speaker 2:What's it called, not linoleum.
Speaker 1:It's vinyl, it's the wood type Sticks together. I don't know. I've lost train of thought.
Speaker 2:Flooring yeah.
Speaker 1:That's all I know. Input and like shiplap type, yeah, stuff up anyway, so soon maybe that room. Oh, and I changed the light.
Speaker 2:I took the old light. I found a light I want for our room.
Speaker 1:Speaking of light, well, good, maybe I'll yeah, all right, what else you?
Speaker 2:I don't know if I got anything.
Speaker 1:I've got something that I wanted to ask you.
Speaker 2:What do you think? Jody and his million questions?
Speaker 1:Yeah, what do you think? Or what restaurant do you think has the best ice or ice cubes?
Speaker 2:I know the number one answer. Hold on.
Speaker 1:Now I've looked at two places. This is from the Daily Mail.
Speaker 2:This is my source. I thought you were going to say Daily Mountain Eagle, no.
Speaker 1:That's the source and it's the top 11 best fast food ice cubes. So we will start here. Before I start, you tell me what you think is number one.
Speaker 2:Number one is the Ratliff Kitchen.
Speaker 1:The Rat House.
Speaker 2:The Rat House.
Speaker 1:Hmm, where's that? Oh, that's here.
Speaker 2:That's here.
Speaker 1:Why do you say our ice is the better? I have to emphasize ice.
Speaker 2:Because a couple of years ago, I got the best Christmas anniversary Christmas present ever. I guess it's been about two years, hasn't it?
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:I got the Sonic Ice Maker.
Speaker 1:That's not the name of it. That's not the name of it, but it makes ice.
Speaker 2:That's the kind of ice that it makes the small little pebbles. Whatever you call it, pellets, pellets. I love it.
Speaker 1:So how big is this Joker? This thing's probably about as wide as a coffee pot.
Speaker 2:A coffee maker yeah, but about twice as high, yeah, and it it makes. It just makes ice, and then I just take it and dump it in the ice bin in the freezer so how long does it take to make a tray of ice in this thing? To fill up our tray in the freezer, it takes two, two of the trays that's in the yeah, or it has to make twice yeah.
Speaker 1:So how long does that take? A couple hours.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it doesn't take too long. I mean, you can eat the ice straight from there, you don't have to put it in the freezer, you can just leave it there. But it's not a freezer, so it doesn't freeze the ice.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it'll slowly melt.
Speaker 2:It'll melt and then it recycles that water. So you've got to clean that thing every so often.
Speaker 1:So you don't have to have it hooked up to a water source, you just have to add water. No, I don't have the one.
Speaker 2:There are some that hook to a water source, but I don't have that one. Mine just. You just add water to it. Like you said, a coffee pot like. Right, so I feel like my before. We had that. We went and bought ice even though we had an ice maker in the old refrigerator that we had.
Speaker 1:Because it was a regular cubes.
Speaker 2:Yeah, we would go buy ice at our local grocery store because they done the crunch ice.
Speaker 1:Yeah, do they still do that.
Speaker 2:I'm pretty sure. Yeah, I think I've seen it. But we just did that because you liked that I would eat it. Yeah, you would just get ice, I would just sit and eat it, I would eat it Because, yeah, you would just get ice, I would just sit and eat it. I could eat a whole bag of ice in a week yeah. Probably less than that, that's called a problem. Well, I don't do it quite as much.
Speaker 2:No, you don't chew on ice like you used to Not like I used to, but I do like it.
Speaker 1:But I don't take ice in anything. I don't except in anything, except right now we're outside. Is this the fourth week in a row that we've recorded outside, because we find it more pleasant? Maybe, so I've got my tumbler and I've got ice in it and some Pepsi, and the ice stays. It don't melt in that tumbler, so I like it that way.
Speaker 2:But anyway, any other time that I, but our tumblers are sweating today.
Speaker 1:they are sweating and I am too, because inside you know, if I just I'll make a cup of whatever and I don't put ice with it yeah, and then the cooler in my truck, in the back of my truck is loaded down with water, bottle water, but there's no ice in there. It it's just whatever temperature inside the cooler is. That's what it room temperature Let me tell you.
Speaker 2:Speaking of water, let me tell you what I did Friday. Tell me so. Me and Nicholas went somewhere Friday morning. I always carry a bottle of water with me, or I usually make me a flavored water, but I didn't. I just carried a bottle of water and I sipped on it. You know a little bit. We got back home, I left it in the car and that was probably. We got home before. We probably got home around 11 or so and well, about two or three o'clock, I can't remember. I went back out to go get something. I'm gonna take a swig of this water. Oh my gosh, I spit that out right fast. That water was so hot it I felt like if I'd have swallowed it it would have burned my throat, not even thinking about it. I just picked that up and I didn't. Oh, that water was hotter than I take my showers and that's all I had.
Speaker 1:And you couldn't tell or didn't think about it or anything. I just didn't.
Speaker 2:No, because it's like I just wanted something. I mean I knew it was going to be warm. I didn't think it was going to be scalding because, oh, that was hot. I've never had water that hot but I like water room temperature. I don't I mean I can do it because I I leave it sitting there beside me when I'm working and I do drink at room temperature.
Speaker 1:But you're talking, it eventually gets room temperature you don't start off with.
Speaker 2:No, I don't start off with a room. No, I don't start off with it.
Speaker 1:See, I start off with it. No, I don't All right, so let's get to our list.
Speaker 2:So number one is Ratliff Kitchen.
Speaker 1:That's right.
Speaker 2:Okay, I need you to send that in to them. Ratliff Kitchen, all right, so number 11, taco Bell.
Speaker 1:They got big ice, don't they? Yeah, it's big ice.
Speaker 2:They got big ice, don't they? Yeah, it's big ice, so I guess they got big ice.
Speaker 1:Yeah, number 10 mcdonald's, they've got big ice. It's not the small pellets right number nine, burger king. We're just gonna scratch that off and skip them, because I ain't got nothing for burger king but all these places have the same ice, yeah.
Speaker 2:so like what I don, so like what I don't know, I don't know.
Speaker 1:Number eight Dunkin' Donuts. You have any clue about them? Theirs is the bigger size, they have the. They had pictures with each one and it showed the bigger size ice.
Speaker 2:In their coffees. I thought they had in their.
Speaker 1:Well, it can't be pellet size if it's coffee, because it all melt.
Speaker 2:Cold coffee, that's all. I drink Cold coffee. Yeah, I was just kidding I really thought it was the pellet ice, but now I don't know.
Speaker 1:Now I'm going to have to go tomorrow and get me one so I can find out. It's the thicker size. Number seven Jimmy John's no clue, I'm just going by the picture. It was the thicker ice. I don't know if I ever had Jimmy John's.
Speaker 2:I've had it, but I can't say that I've been there. I think, somebody brought it to us.
Speaker 1:Number six I don't think of ice when it comes to this place, but Starbucks. Yeah for cold coffees do they sell more cold coffees than hot coffee? I think they do, I don't know maybe you should look that up. Do you think cold coffees are taking over hot coffees?
Speaker 1:or in popularity, more I hear more people talk about because you can drink the cold coffee all the time, yeah, from say 10 o'clock in the morning until 10 o'clock at night, if you wanted to. And a lot of people just want coffee in the morning and don't like it throughout the day or in the evening.
Speaker 2:I could probably do a cold coffee in the evening.
Speaker 1:I could do a hot coffee right now.
Speaker 2:I know you can, you drink it all day I would, if I could.
Speaker 1:All right, number five, Pizza Hut. I don't know. It showed the thicker size ice on it too, but I don't know.
Speaker 2:Because I don't.
Speaker 1:We don't visit Pizza Hut. Yeah, these establishments, I don't go there. All right, number four Dairy Queen Thicker size is what it showed. There's no difference.
Speaker 2:How are you judging ice?
Speaker 1:There's no difference, judging us, there's no difference if it's the same.
Speaker 2:Yeah, the the cups they put them in are different maybe, and they don't melt as fast as if you got a plastic cup or a styrofoam cup or a sounds to me, like I don't think anybody uses styrofoam.
Speaker 1:These right here aren't necessarily on the popularity of the ice, it's on the popularity of the establishment, what it sounds like to me on these. But anyway, number three, zagsby's, if everybody does, everybody know what it is I love some zagsby's, it's a chicken place I like their ice. I usually order extra, extra ice does zagsby's have fried chicken, or is it all just baked or whatever do they? It's all fried. Is it fried? I don't care for zagsby's, so fried chicken, or is it all just?
Speaker 2:baked or whatever Do they. It's all fried.
Speaker 1:Is it fried? Yeah, I don't care for Zagsby's, so I can't think.
Speaker 2:I mean, it's not all fried. They do have some.
Speaker 1:I mean, they have it all.
Speaker 2:You like the honey mustard when I get the tenders dipped in honey mustard.
Speaker 1:Do I.
Speaker 2:Mm-hmm. Hot honey mustard.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you want something with a sauce, I know.
Speaker 2:That's never your number one pick.
Speaker 1:So anyway, they've got the small ice yeah it's good, so it's popular. All right, number two we're getting down to it Chick-fil-A.
Speaker 2:I love some Chick-fil-A.
Speaker 1:They've got the small ice. I think they sell it. I think you can buy oh maybe I think, Maybe, I think, yeah, could be wrong, but it seemed like I read that, so all right, and number one Ratliff. Kitchen. If I had a drum roll, I'd do it right now. No, sonic, sonic has the small pellet eyes and apparently that's the most popular All right, because Sonic is a place known for their drinks, like you know.
Speaker 2:hey, there's the cop, oh, and they're pulling somebody it's called the water patrol yeah, that's what I mean. But I mean, like you know, you go to sonic just for a drink, sometimes like a cherry limeade or a yeah the big thing now is these dirty dr peppers what is that? I think it's vanilla and coconut in a dr pepper.
Speaker 1:I'm not sure because it just I don't know I just saw a commercial, a little caesars commercial, that it was either pepsi or dr pepper, and it was pineapple, pineapple dr pepper or pineapple Pepsi flavor.
Speaker 2:I don't think I can do the pineapple in a Coke that does not sound. I just like the cherry.
Speaker 1:I mean, why are we doing these weird things?
Speaker 2:I don't know, but a lot of people like vanilla Coke and vanilla Dr Pepper.
Speaker 1:Well, vanilla, yeah, I can see that, but now we're just going less weird stuff.
Speaker 2:Pineapple, the cherry and a Coke is good.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you're right about that Cherry Coke.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I don't think I want pineapple.
Speaker 1:You don't like cherry. Pepsi, you just don't like Pepsi. I don't like Pepsi.
Speaker 2:It's sweet.
Speaker 1:Is he just trolling with his lights on?
Speaker 2:No, I thought he's got something behind him.
Speaker 1:Oh he's, do you not see it? Yeah, he's pulling a, he's dragging it.
Speaker 2:Somebody got in trouble, Well.
Speaker 1:I guarantee that there's a young'un on board with him that doesn't have a no, possible no license.
Speaker 2:Yeah, doesn't have a boater's license. We don't know, we can't say that.
Speaker 1:I guarantee that's what it is.
Speaker 2:I can look it up on Facebook. They probably know.
Speaker 1:So anyway. So I looked at another review on ice and the number one and two slots on it was the same Sonic. Another review on ice and the number one and two slots on it was the same.
Speaker 2:Sonic was number one with it and chick-fil-a, so apparently people are in for them. I I think sonic is your number one, like I said, because it's a drink place, yeah, and I think if they didn't have that good ice, it wouldn't be as good I think that's yeah, that's a big turn on for people.
Speaker 1:Well, I mean, it's making reviews, so all right, let me ask you this oh, here we go. So who has the best like ice cream or milkshakes? Is is it always going to be like your sonic or your dairy queen? Or can we say dunkin donuts and mcdonald's can you throw all these in there? I will say this. And McDonald's. I can always remember growing up, their hot fudge ice cream or whatever it was. It was in this cup thing.
Speaker 2:Oh, we always got dip cones.
Speaker 1:No, this wasn't a cup. This was in like a plastic container thing. And it had the hot fudge in it.
Speaker 2:It was so good. We always got a dip cone and I love the butterscotch. You don't like butterscotch, do you?
Speaker 1:I do like butterscotch, butterscotch. You don't like butterscotch, do you? I do like butterscotch.
Speaker 2:You do Well the candy. I don't know if I would like one of the ice cream. It was good dipped ice cream dipped in it.
Speaker 1:Now doesn't, dairy Queen? Aren't they the only ones that do that?
Speaker 2:This was McDonald's, I'm pretty sure. No, you might be right, it might have been Dairy Queen.
Speaker 1:I don't know what's.
Speaker 2:A dilly bar A dilly bar is the round ones that are white vanilla ice cream and then has the chocolate on top of it and it's in a circle and it's on a stick.
Speaker 1:Oh, so it's a I don't know what.
Speaker 2:I'm trying to say it's a bar Ice cream on a stick.
Speaker 1:Yeah, so it's like packaged.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm pretty sure that's what I'm trying to say. It's a bar Ice cream on a stick, yeah, so it's like packaged, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm pretty sure that's why Dilly Bar is. You're making me want ice cream. I know, I know.
Speaker 1:So Sonic, I think milkshakes, I think any of these places you go to, I wouldn't turn down like a chocolate or vanilla, aren't they basically going to be the same, I think. So yeah, now, if you venture off into the flavors, like you're gonna put heath bar cookies and cream and stuff like that, I can see a difference because some of them might not have it as thick.
Speaker 2:Yeah, the pieces might be smaller I like a thick milkshake because by the time they make it and you get it, it's not.
Speaker 1:It's too runny for me, like I don't like that yeah, I get that, but I'm talking about the flat, I'm talking about the pieces they put in oh yeah, you might be like well, I don't like sonic because their heath bar pieces are so small and they don't put enough in there, I always pay extra and get extra heath bar now they probably charge you double. That's crazy probably it's crazy for you to pay it, not crazy for them to charge it. I know but when?
Speaker 2:but when you want it, you want it.
Speaker 1:Dunkin' Donuts. What do they have?
Speaker 2:I've never had ice cream from there.
Speaker 1:Do they have all that stuff?
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:Is it Baskin-Robbins too? Didn't they go in merge?
Speaker 2:Are they together? Is that what it is? Yeah, maybe.
Speaker 1:You've been there, I haven't been there.
Speaker 2:I've never been in, says outside hey, we are also.
Speaker 1:Baskin Robbins or something, Maybe. I know they got ice cream. I know they got a good breakfast. What is that? Oh, yeah, that sandwich. Yeah, some kind of croissant thing Bacon, egg and cheese croissant.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I think Jody's hungry. Yeah, I am, I've only fed him once today.
Speaker 1:So McDonald's has just basically got milkshakes and like the hot fudge type thing. Yeah, the sundaes, yeah I'm going to say all of your Hardee's and all those, your Burger Kings. They're just going to have the normal little cone with a.
Speaker 2:Who knows? I don't know what they have.
Speaker 1:So, out of all of them, what's the best? I'm going to say? You're going to say Sonic.
Speaker 2:Uh-huh, I like sonic what about the uh, I mean dairy queen's good too, I say dairy coin because it but I went to dairy queen because sonic never had heath bar. Sonic has heath bar now, so I'm probably a sonic person on that right so what about uh, I lost my train of thought.
Speaker 1:Oh uh, dairy queen, the banana split. Are you a banana split person?
Speaker 2:I love bananas I know you do, I'm not I I don't really care, it's okay, I'm not but like I'm not ordering it, like if you get it I'll have a bite maybe or something but who would have thought of that?
Speaker 1:Who thinks of putting a banana with ice?
Speaker 2:cream. I mean seriously Three different flavors of ice cream, but you can throw a little bit of pineapple, strawberry and chocolate.
Speaker 1:You throw some chocolate syrup in there. I think you could probably just dip a banana in chocolate syrup.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:And it'd be mighty fun.
Speaker 2:They have those, do they yeah?
Speaker 1:And it'd be mighty fun. They have those, do they? Yeah, I'm out of the game. I don't get out enough.
Speaker 2:Frozen bananas.
Speaker 1:I don't want a frozen banana.
Speaker 2:Well, it's like dipped in chocolate or something like that.
Speaker 1:So then you categorize it as frozen.
Speaker 2:I guess so, I guess so.
Speaker 1:Well, how about that?
Speaker 2:How about that? How about them apples? No, he's talking about bananas.
Speaker 1:Oh, I did. I found out this weekend that I have a problem, and don't look at me Just one and don't comment, Just letting everybody know. For some reason they're having some kind of antique roadshow marathon on TV. You found the channel. I don't know what it is.
Speaker 2:It's a whole channel. It's never going off.
Speaker 1:So if I go in there right now, it's on, it's on. Oh my goodness. See ya Folks, I don't know what it is. I don't know if y'all watch it.
Speaker 2:Coming to you live from Antique Roadshow.
Speaker 1:If you go, Just give it 20 minutes. I guarantee you don't want to get up.
Speaker 2:It's on the Roku.
Speaker 1:Roku.
Speaker 2:Since I've been debating on getting rid of.
Speaker 1:Spectrum.
Speaker 2:Spectrum. I don't even know what we got.
Speaker 1:Yeah, we need to get rid of Spectrum. It's getting way too expensive.
Speaker 2:Long channels what the heck. Where did that come from?
Speaker 1:You want local channels.
Speaker 2:Local. We want sporting channels channels, but we're just gonna have to give that up and figure out how to stream it when it gets closer to football, why can we not figure out how to stream it? I tried it last year and nothing.
Speaker 1:We done there was something weird going on with espn while we couldn't do it.
Speaker 2:But anyway, that's fine but yeah, anti road show I am all in and then what's the other channel? They have that. Like we sit on our phones so much if we're in there. Like we sit on our phones so much If we're in there sitting down. We're on our phones because you can't find something on TV half the time.
Speaker 1:Well, this is the first time I've actually sat in there and watched. Tv in a long time.
Speaker 2:I found Antique Roadshow and I found Duck Dynasty. They just play continuously on these.
Speaker 1:I liked Duck Dynasty. When it came out 20 years ago or whenever it was, I was a fan but now I've run it in the ground.
Speaker 1:You have ran in the ground because you like I have it on, like I need something on, even if I'm sitting there not watching it but listen, I want the tv off in the bedroom at night I know I've gotten to where I don't. I don't want any light anymore and I won't light but the problem is is that you turn on this stupid duck dynasty and it's on all night.
Speaker 2:So when alarm goes off and I get up in the morning, I'm seeing you're waking up with I'm seeing sigh or willie or jace or well, fine, I'll turn antique roadshow on and then you won't get, then you won't go to work. I'll get caught up. That might be a good idea.
Speaker 1:It's amazing Because I've looked at these things and the stuff that I think is trash, junk, whatever it's not.
Speaker 2:I'm getting ate up now.
Speaker 1:I see.
Speaker 2:Yeah, so we need to go catch us some antique roadshow. No, no, no, no I've watched enough yesterday no, I gotta stay away watching tonight.
Speaker 1:No, yep, no, what else we? We watched a documentary. I didn't get to see all of it, I saw like the middle part gypsy rose oh, let's go start with gypsy rose. You had it on I had it on, but I, I didn't, we, we hadn't finished it yeah, I just know the story of when she killed her mother or she didn't, she had somebody her boyfriend.
Speaker 2:Yeah, she met online or something.
Speaker 1:Yeah convinced him to do it. She's in jail, she's out now, right other than that, I don't know all that made the news but uh, it was kind of interesting. But I don't know who to believe in that, because a lot of this she starts throwing her granddad under the bus for things that he might have done and I'm like, hmm, I don't know. She seems very immature, but I understand she was kept from a lot of people and access to stuff, right, so that's why she's immature.
Speaker 2:I don't understand how her dad couldn't do. I mean, I don't know. Like I said, I've not watched it enough and to really know, I don't think I would.
Speaker 1:What's going on? If you wanted to watch it again, I would be like that's not well, I don't think we finished it no, that's what I said. I've just seen like the middle part, didn't see the beginning, hadn't seen the end. Yeah, all right.
Speaker 2:The other one when I came home the other day was you had the selene d on oh yeah, and I want to go back and watch it again, because I had it on, but I was on my phone so I really wasn't paying attention till the end of it well when I walked in at 51 minutes or the middle of it.
Speaker 1:I remember, 51 minutes had already already been played when I walked in there and I hadn't even thought about her in a long time, all I could think of man she is aged.
Speaker 2:But she's got something wrong with her?
Speaker 1:Well, everybody's aged when you haven't seen them in a long time. Yeah, she's got problems and all that stuff.
Speaker 2:It was a good documentary. I want to go back and watch it again.
Speaker 1:Well, I need to start from the beginning and watch it. Yeah, but when it comes to documentary, I don't care what it is, I'll watch it.
Speaker 2:I like documentaries. What's that other one? I started, don't know, and you were. It was a music group. Duran, Duran this has been like maybe last month or something.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it was Bon Jovi.

Speaker 2:I love that show. The more details you can tell me about a band, a group, whatever the behind the scene stuff. Yeah, bring it to me.

Speaker 1:So what was number three?
Speaker 2:Shannon Doherty.
Speaker 1:Shannon Doherty, doherty, doherty.

Speaker 1:Netflix, your Honor. It was okay, it's the actor from Breaking Bad, bryan Cranston, cranston, yeah, that's how you say it, it just, it got. It was good, Like I wanted to finish it.
Speaker 2:Okay, but.
Speaker 1:No, it was good starting off.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:And probably maybe the it was two seasons because it was originally on Showtime and now it's starting off. Yeah, and probably maybe the it was two seasons because it was originally on Showtime and now it's on Netflix.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:So basically what eight, nine episodes was the first season and then kind of on that second season started dragging its feet, yeah, and it really drug out until I don't. Even we watched the last episode and I don't really remember anything that happened Because I was falling asleep and I don't really remember anything that happened because I was falling asleep and I don't really care to go back.
Speaker 2:Yep, you fell asleep. Yeah, I don't care about going back, Because I asked you what something meant. Oh, because well, I won't say it.
Speaker 1:Yeah, we don't want to ruin it because it ended that long.
Speaker 2:Yeah, but I do need to know Jody pays attention to detail and stuff more than I do in shows and movies.
Speaker 1:You know, this is what drives me crazy about you. Let me tell everybody right now that you can what don't drive you crazy about me? Nothing. This is the only thing and I'm gonna tell the world right now. How can you get up and walk away from the tv a movie, whatever and go wherever for five minutes and come back and sit down and start watching it again like it don't bother me? You missed five minutes.
Speaker 2:It could have been a crucial part to the plot I know, but if I'm not into it it don't matter, you don't bother me at all you've got to hit that pause I don't care. Jody has to hit the pause every time. Yeah, if you're talking, if you want to start, I'm like I just gotta run to the bathroom, right quick but if you want to start a conversation, I pause and.
Speaker 1:I'm like let's get this over with so we can get back to the movie.
Speaker 2:Jody pauses it. No, because it'll be that time somebody says so that's why I need to know something, because I guess I wasn't paying attention.
Speaker 1:It'll be that one time somebody says that one sentence that you need to know 30 minutes later.
Speaker 2:Yeah, this must be why I don't.
Speaker 1:That's why I don't like the movie theaters, Because, like if you have to get up and use the bathroom or something like that.
Speaker 2:Oh yeah, they're not going to pause it for you, are they? Yeah, no.
Speaker 1:No. So you've got to hurry. So you've got to figure out, you've got to try and wait until a low spot in the movie, you know, to where you can say, hey, let me go run and come back, love it. Yeah, we got a ton of birds right here in front of us eating Under the flagpole.
Speaker 2:We got a ton of gnats eating too, because I'm getting eat up Are you, I'm not my legs are Ankles, I guess that's time to go then if they're eating up.
