Blue Slide Serenade: Tales from Two Hearts
From Havana Nights to Reggae Vibes
Ever wondered how a simple venue could transform into a tropical paradise? Join us as we recount the whirlwind journey of planning and executing Havana Night at 1933, a night that went beyond mere DJing to create an unforgettable experience for our guests. From vibrant decor to immersive atmospheres, we share the dedication and hard work, including the invaluable help from our daughters, that turned a vision into reality. Plus, don't miss out on our exciting future plans, including a reggae set at Off the Rails that has us buzzing with anticipation.
What makes a meal memorable? Perhaps it’s the combination of support for local businesses, the joy of trying new venues like "Off the Rails," or the convenience of Uber Eats delivering mouth-watering delights from places like La Cabana and Chocolate Bash. Relive our recent culinary escapades and savor the nostalgia as we discuss Jon Favreau's film "Chef," inspired by a delectable chocolate lava cake. We also touch on the practicalities of dining out and the little things that make a big difference, like remembering to request utensils with your food delivery.
From controversial Oscars moments to childhood beach games, our lively debates and heartfelt reflections span a spectrum of topics. We tackle the impact of Will Smith's actions on his career, celebrate top black actors, and even appreciate the talents of white actors like Tom Hanks. Reminiscing about carefree beach trips and humorous bar encounters, we embrace the simple joys of family and friendship. As we brainstorm the perfect podcast name and format, our stories blend humor, nostalgia, and candid discussions on relationships and financial dynamics.

all right, y'all, it's gordy b queen b uh, we haven't been active for a week or two. We've been rather busy. Yes, we have been all over the place um san diego a few times. Yeah, back we had Havana Night. Yes, havana Night went wonderfully.
Speaker 1:Huge success, huge success. The transformation of 1933 by you, with all the decor, all the balloons, all the LED lights, all the string lights. Everything was just crazy amazing. And it started at the entrance the balloons, the feathers, the leaves, the flowers. It looked very, very tropical. It looked like you were being transported into another place, which is the entire idea. You know anybody can go DJ somewhere, but is everybody going to care enough to actually want to transport their guests and take them on a journey or take them out of the city that they're in?
Speaker 2:I think that's what puts us it sets us apart a little bit, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1:It's. It's just different now and it has nothing, you know. There's nothing wrong with the DJ showing up and doing his job. That's what he was hired for. Yes, a DJ is not a promoter.
Speaker 2:No, in his job.
Speaker 1:That's what he was hired for. A DJ is not a promoter. It is not the DJ's job to post regularly, consistently, constantly, for a club, for a venue, for an event. That's a whole other person. A whole other person. However, I want everything that we touch to be an experience and to be excellence, pure excellence.
Speaker 1:So, for instance, we got everything going at Havana in 1933. We worked for about five or six hours getting that place cleaned up, set up, organized, ready to go all the decor, everything and just me and you sitting there seeing people come in one by one, by one by one. Initially it's a little nerve-wracking, like man. I don't really know how many people are going to really show up. I have no idea. So when the first couple comes in it's a little bit of a relief, but it's also a little bit of stress Because you don't want to disappoint the people that are coming there for a great event and for something that you've hyped up for about four weeks or a month, whatever it may be.
Speaker 1:But as the place filled and as we've seen guests arrive and come in and you could see their eyes just pop right, right at the beginning we were at the very entrance. We were able to greet everybody as they came in. We greet everybody as they leave. We greet everybody as they come in. You know we had the 50s, 60s little teal telephone out there for you know audio guest book.
Speaker 2:Yes.
Speaker 1:People picked it up, left messages. We had two photo booths. We had a custom havana night led um and stephanie and carlos. You know they, they always come through and they always, they always bring, they always bring everyone. Everyone comes to their events. Yeah they're good people so we're planning on doing it last Friday of every month now.
Speaker 2:Okay.
Speaker 1:Will it remain Havana Night? I'm not sure, it may be a different name. Stephanie and Carlos were mentioning possibly either keeping the name or switching the name up every once in a while.
Speaker 1:But I talked to Carlos and I said you know, next week we'll sit down and you know, us four will have a you know, a little meeting and go over a little strategy, see what we want to do, see what we want to do going forward, and it's going to be a challenge. You know we have. We've set the bar, we've set the expectation. We had all that and it was a lot of work.
Speaker 2:It was, it was, it was a ton of work, it was it was.
Speaker 1:It was a ton of work, so much work that we left that night. We left everything there and we returned the next day with all of our daughters yeah who went in helped us clean everything up, helped us take everything down, help us, you know, get the venue and event you event the venue back to where it was, so then the next people can come in. But Summer, she's our oldest, 15 now. She's a little rock star.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:Yeah, she's a little hustler, she's a little worker, she is one of those workers that she'll show up and she'll just start doing things, she'll just start cranking things out, and credit to her. She's been through a few events with us so she kind of knows the setup and the breakdown and things like that, the breakdown and things like that, whereas olivia sophie, they don't really know. They want to help, they want to be involved and, um, you know a few more events with them and and they'll be able to they'll know as well.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah yeah, we, um, it looks like we're gonna be at off the rails, yeah, uh, sunday, I believe june 23rd um, and're going to do a reggae set, just a Sunday vibe. So we'll rock a whole bunch of reggae. We'll rock a whole bunch of traditional reggae, but we'll also mix in some some mashups, some R&B slash reggae mashups. Keep things nice, keep things fresh. Keep things nice, keep things fresh, keep things light. So that'll be fun. We'll stop by off the rails in a couple weeks beforehand just to get a feel for the place. I've never been there. You haven't been there, have you? Yeah, so we haven't been there yet. It'll be good just to go and support. Period, but definitely go grab a drink, have you? Uh-uh, yeah, so we haven't been there yet. It'll be good just to go and support period.
Speaker 1:Yeah, but definitely go grab a drink. I guess there's food trucks outside quite often. Okay, they don't have food there, but there's always food trucks outside, which is great.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:It's a great pairing Alcohol, food, food, alcohol. It's a great pairing, yeah, food food, alcohol. Just it's a great pairing. Yeah, um, and just get a feel for the, for the place, instead of kind of just showing up blind and you know not a big deal. We've been doing a lot of uh, a lot of uber eats lately yeah um, I don't know if I can justify it or not, but I feel like our time has gotten to a point where it's pretty precious.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:We don't have a whole lot of it anymore. We have multiple businesses, we have careers, we have additional things up and coming, planned that are going to keep us even busier. So you know, this is going to be the foundation period, the next year or two building that foundation, and then hopefully we can start outsourcing some things. Some of the simpler things, like an easy photo booth setup right, we got two photo booths on the same day coming up not this Saturday, but next Saturday, I think, and I believe I also have a gig that day.
Speaker 1:So I think it's two photo booths and a gig.
Speaker 2:but I'm not sure. And balloon decor.
Speaker 1:Oh, we got balloon decor too. Anyways, uber Eats, whole lot of Uber Eats.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:We generally go to the places that we enjoy that we kind of know of. We generally go to the places that we enjoy that we kind of know of. However, we ain't been to La Cabana in a whole long time, right.
Speaker 2:No.
Speaker 1:I mean, it's been a long time.
Speaker 2:Well, I think today was our second time we ordered. Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1:And their Chile. Colorado is just.
Speaker 2:Bomb.
Speaker 1:Butter, yes, perfect amount of flavor. It's not too hot, not too spicy. Meat just melts in your mouth. Yep, great portions, mm-hmm, great food. I got biscuits and gravy today. Yeah, I'm having a little bit of a tooth problem that we got to get taken care of this next week, so I'm trying to take it easy on that tooth for fear that I'm going to be up all night just throbbing again. I know, I know, but we'll get there Uber Eats, I understand. Apparently you have to request Utensils. Request utensils Like hey, man, can you just throw in a fork and like a spoon and a knife or whatever is going to be needed to eat your food? Yeah, like you know, uber Eats, you're not always going to be at home.
Speaker 2:No.
Speaker 1:You can Uber Eats from anywhere. Yeah, it doesn't necessarily mean that you're going to have utensils where you're at, but going forward I guess we'll have to put in little special notes down at the bottom or something say, hey, we need forks yeah, we need xyz. Um, where else have we? What was the place we ate, uh, this evening, the, the dessert place oh, I was called chocolate, something chocolate chocolate bomb or something.
Speaker 1:What was it? It's a little dessert place. It was on uber eats. Yeah, pull up your little uber eats app. And this place I don't know Marion had. She had brownies, ice cream, lava cake.
Speaker 2:I know I'm making you sound kind of thick right now. You didn't eat all of that, we still have some of it saved.
Speaker 1:It's called Chocolate Bash, chocolate Bash, pretty bomb bomb, pretty bomb little place really good I got what cream puffs yes cream puffs. They were super light, delicious, real light, but I ate the whole box. Yeah, I mean I gave, I gave you two just so you could try them out, but I ate the entire box of them like just a glutton Right. How were your brownies? What was the dish Brownies and what, what was it?
Speaker 2:It was called Brownie Bite Sundae.
Speaker 1:All right, so it's a sundae that had ice cream and everything.
Speaker 2:It was so yummy.
Speaker 1:I didn't recall you giving me a bite of ice cream. I only got a bite of ice cream. I only got a bite of because the top part was like solid oh so we have some excuse as to why you were able to get ice cream and I wasn't able to get any I had a breakthrough I don't know, I don't think you wanted to share personally we still have some but it wasn't offered.
Speaker 2:No, no the best part was offered though. The best part, the brownies yeah, they were.
Speaker 1:They were too chocolatey for me they were a little too rich for me. Well, like you know, like the cream puffs were nice and light, right, they weren't super rich, those brownies were rich they were yummy. Yeah, I mean they. They were good, but one little chunk of brownie I was cool well, we still have chocolate lava cake.
Speaker 2:We can have a little bit later you know what?
Speaker 1:chocolate Yummy? Yeah, I mean, they were good but one little chunk of brownie.
Speaker 2:I was cool. Well, we still have chocolate lava cake.
Speaker 1:We can have a little bit later.
Speaker 2:You know what chocolate lava cake reminds me of? Oh no, huh, no, don't even, no, you're not even You're going the wrong way with this, Okay go Chef, let's go Chef. Okay, let's go oh the movie chef.
Speaker 1:Yes, chef, okay, okay, john favreau yeah, john leguizamo, yeah, sofia vergara well, how do you say her?
Speaker 2:last name. I think it's vergara vergara yeah, okay, anyways.
Speaker 1:Um, yeah, they had chocolate, lava cake and chef. And that's when john favreau flipped out on the uh, the guy that was uh reviewing his the food critic yeah, yeah, yeah, he's like it's chocolate lava cake.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I remember it's frozen in the center fucking ganache.
Speaker 1:I'm like man. I don't know what all this fancy shit is. Chocolate, lava cake frozen in the center, all this stuff yeah, I don't know, no chocolate, but anyways, that's a great movie, one of my favorites. Yeah, one of my favorite movies your go-to movie it is a go-to movie, but why?
Speaker 2:I'm gonna challenge you and ask you if you know why it is a go-to movie for me I don't know the soundtrack, the music you do you, you do they, they, they, that's true, they have amazing music in that, in that movie there's quite a bit of movies you like with amazing soundtrack and you know what?
Speaker 1:and that's a, a prerequisite for g to sign off on a movie. It has to have a great soundtrack.
Speaker 2:If it doesn't, uh, yeah, mediocre yeah, what was that movie we recently watched that had that Mac Miller intro?
Speaker 1:Oh man, what was that?
Speaker 2:But it was a girly movie that I like to watch.
Speaker 1:It was.
Speaker 2:It was oh man. Yeah, we had to download it. I don't remember what movie it was, it wasn't, and I don't even know if Netflix has like a history.
Speaker 1:I bet you it's probably easy enough to Google movie with Mac Miller song Something like that. We'll find it.
Speaker 2:We'll find it. We'll need to find it.
Speaker 1:But speaking of that, speaking of movies, speaking of soundtracks, speaking of entertainment, we had a little conversation earlier today and we were talking I don't know how we got to this, I do not know how we got to this, but we were talking about the top five black actors ever.
Speaker 2:Yeah, five black actors, yeah, ever.
Speaker 1:yeah, you have will smith way up there like at number three, at least top five, okay, I mean he's top 15 for me maybe. Again, I don't like the guy anymore. Um, I think I think what he did was lousy cheesy. You're picking on a small, small man, chris Rock. I mean he might as well be a grandpa. He's frail, he's little. Will Smith has done all of these movies that he's had to get ripped and jacked for. He got huge for Ali. I mean it's sad that he did. He was big in I Am Legend, he was you know, he's always had a physique on him in most of his movies, right, yeah, I mean there might be a couple movies where he was kind of, you know, like Pursuit of Happiness.
Speaker 2:Oh yeah, that was a good movie.
Speaker 1:That was. That's a tearjerker. That's a rough movie. When him and his son are sleeping on the bathroom floor in the subway or something and he's just trying to hold the bathroom door closed, man, that's a tough one.
Speaker 2:But you can't take that away from him. You can't take all his acting away from him, because of one thing he did Okay, let me ask something. It was bad. I know it was bad. I'm not saying that, chris rock, you know I'm sorry that happened to him, but you can't take away all that he's done I would have beat will smith's ass in front of jada on that stage.
Speaker 1:What was it the the Oscars? I don't know what the hell it is. A Will Smith wouldn't have done it to a man equal his size. B he did it to Chris Rock because he's seen an opportunity where he could hit somebody that wouldn't retaliate. C he didn't have a problem with it. At first he laughed at it. Then he looked over at Jada, jada got got pissed and then all of a sudden he got serious. Yeah, right, but okay, if you cannot take will smith's acting accolades away, uh, can you take r kelly's music away?
Speaker 1:no michael jackson's music no. Puff Daddy's music no. Bill Cosby's acting.
Speaker 2:I never really liked it.
Speaker 1:What the Cosby's.
Speaker 2:Uh-uh, what it was weird.
Speaker 1:Duh Like the Jell-O pudding, duh no.
Speaker 2:Wasn't a big fan of him.
Speaker 1:Alright. Well, I mean he was older. I mean I think Cosby's were like 70s, 80s. We were super young then, right?
Speaker 2:yeah, and or not born, but I'd watch like family matters. Right, I like that one is that urkel? Yeah, okay and then full house all right.
Speaker 1:How about, like wonder years? No, you don't even know what Wonder Years is. Okay anyways, top black actors, all right. What did we have? Samuel Jackson was way up there.
Speaker 2:Denzel is number one.
Speaker 1:Denzel, samuel Jackson, sidney Poitier, morgan Freeman. There was quite a few, and I even go back. I even go to Taye Diggs, Omar Epps, I go to some of these, I even go to Tupac.
Speaker 2:Tupac.
Speaker 1:What.
Speaker 2:Babe Tupac was not an actor. He had like one movie.
Speaker 1:No, he had multiple movies, juice.
Speaker 2:He's just better at singing, just hey, no tupac was a badass actor he was.
Speaker 1:I gotta watch the movies then but again, I, you know you still have to. You know you got omar epps, you got uh tay diggs, you got um jamie fall. I mean shit you could even put in Tyler Perry. Yeah, tyler Perry, I mean he might not be Super popular with a lot of people Because he does the Madea thing and the cross dressing thing.
Speaker 2:Whatever, I like him more as a producer.
Speaker 1:Okay.
Speaker 2:Yeah, he's just.
Speaker 1:Alright. So then you also have to put in Is it Key, key or Peele? He's doing them horror movies and stuff, I don't know. I mean that's a director role too, though I don't think he's acting in those. But there's a lot of great actors that I think Trump, will Smith, for sure, top five. I might give you top 10. Will Smith can fall into top 10 somewhere. I'm probably going to go down to top 15 Just to give myself a little bit of leeway, you know.
Speaker 2:You know, and it's hard, once you go down the list, right, you're like oh he's good.
Speaker 1:Oh, he's good you know, yeah, and there's people we're leaving out.
Speaker 2:Yeah, a lot of people.
Speaker 1:Did we say Forrest Whitaker? I think you did. Yeah, I mean, that's another one. I mean you can't. Tyrese is an actor. Four Brothers was an amazing movie.
Speaker 2:Yeah, but.
Speaker 1:Outcast. Andre 3000 was in that movie too. Come on, babe, hey, no, no in that movie too. Come on, babe, hey, no, no. Compared to will smith. Hey, do not disrespect four brothers.
Speaker 2:That is yet another movie with an amazing soundtrack.
Speaker 1:That's one movie and another amazing soundtrack yeah all right, then we went to white actors just a little while ago yeah and we're like, uh, I don't even really know white actors, I don't know black actors, until I actually google, right, yeah, so I'll pull up white actors and I would say, okay, you got tom hanks. Um, I mean, who else who are the top, like top 10 white actors, top 20? Um, uh, who's the guy from shawshank redemption, tim robbins? Uh, john travolta, pulp fiction, multiple movies with john travolta, um, I don't know, what do we got? What do we got?
Speaker 1:Al pacino, robert de niro, brad pitt, clint eastwood, bruce willis like, holy, I mean, the list is way up there. Yeah, those guys aren't white. No, I mean, I don't know. I mean we could just do top. You know, look, I'll give it to Adam Sandler. I think Adam Sandler is severely underrated and I feel like that dude is going to be sorely missed one day. His movies I almost want to say shaped a generation, yeah, right. One day, his movies, I almost want to say shaped a generation, yeah right, all of his movies, all of them. You got robert downey jr, you got woody harrelson, jason statham, you got mel gibson, yeah, I mean ben kingsley, jill and holl, hymnsworth, oldman, johnny Depp, I mean, yeah, I mean it's deep, yeah, it is deep. Will Smith's not white.
Speaker 2:No, he's not white.
Speaker 1:I mean, he is kind of corny though sometimes, so I don't know.
Speaker 2:Baby.
Speaker 1:I mean he's kind of corny. His raps are kind of corny too.
Speaker 2:Matthew.
Speaker 1:McConaughey, mcconaughey, mcconaughey. Oh my, liam Neeson, ben Affleck, matt Damon, I mean, there's a ton.
Speaker 2:The moms.
Speaker 1:Daniel Radcliffe, I mean Harry.
Speaker 2:Potter, that's mom's favorite right.
Speaker 1:Kurt Russell. Mom loved Kurt Russell.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:Keanu Reeves. Jesus, we're going to miss out on John Wick.
Speaker 2:Matrix, adam Sandler, 40.
Speaker 1:What Is it? 40?.
Speaker 2:No hell.
Speaker 1:No, yeah, we have to look at different ones, but whatever you get our gist, yeah Right, we got a whole lot of stuff going on. We gave a pair of headphones away for listening to the podcast.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:Old friend Albert Rios is going to be picking those up. What else do we got? We got some photo booths coming up. We got some little gigs here and there coming up. Mm-hmm, we got to buy a truck soon, yeah we do.
Speaker 2:We got to buy a truck soon. Yeah, we do.
Speaker 1:We gotta buy a truck. I really like the Fords. I've always liked Fords. You know, it's all Chevy versus Ford Versus Dodge thing.
Speaker 2:I really don't care Me neither, as long as it gets the job done and as long as it's reliable, right.
Speaker 1:You know like we gotta get a trailer, thinking about a travel trailer. We want to go camping a little bit yeah yeah, that'll be nice um I really want a toy hauler I would love a toy hauler, especially one that has, uh, what is like a patio on the back. Yeah, yeah, I would dj the hell out of the patio on the back?
Speaker 2:would that be on the beach?
Speaker 1:on the beach, in the mountains, anywhere, just playing good music hanging out. You know, camping fires, music at night, whatever it may be, that's, that's always a great thing. Um, we got our turntable set up here in the house. We got a laptop on it, so we don't have to keep switching things out. We can just go right up and start streaming, start playing, hanging out, vibing the a, the little alto, um, I don't remember what it's called yeah, it's a little bluetooth speaker busker.
Speaker 1:It's called a busker. It's a small little Alto battery powered. You know, mackie has their version. I think E-verse has their version, alto. I just went with Alto because I've always went with Alto so far.
Speaker 1:Right, like, yeah, there's no event, no gig, no, anything else that's happening. That needs anything better. That needs anything better. Right, like, look, if you want to go roll out with your QSCs and try to be an elitist or something like that, a half the people listening to your stuff can't even tell anyways, the other half listening to it, or 90% of it, don't even know if you're a decent DJ or not. For all they care. You're playing one song after another after another and they're not listening to the intricacies of beat matching and transitioning. They're not doing that. So to everybody that has QSCs or whatever, great, that's awesome.
Speaker 1:If we ever do an event that requires something more than the altos, I'm almost going to guarantee it's going to be on a stage that has their own sound system. Already I'm a mobile DJ. The altos get it done. They get it done fine. There's no bad sound, there's no distortion, there's no clipping or anything like that. You control most of that. You control most of that with your mixer and things of that nature. Honeybook is set up, all of our forms and everything else are uploaded Photo booth contract, photo booth questionnaire, dj contract, dj questionnaire, balloon contract, balloon questionnaire, so on and so forth. So we'll get a test run. We'll throw in our local email addresses or whatnot and do a test run. Do a test run with some money changingchanging hands. Everything's supposed to be integrated. Everything should be set up.
Speaker 1:We're probably going to have to tweak the contracts here and there and tweak the questionnaires here and there, especially as we go deeper and deeper into different events, different cultures. Right, you know not everybody's gonna do them. The american, you know wedding culture. You know there's gonna be different, different scenarios. You know bakersfield has a whole lot of punjabi, a whole lot of indian. Um, you know different regions of india but a lot of punjabi you know so, um, so we're gonna have to adjust for that.
Speaker 1:We've been watching on Netflix. We started watching your Honor. Your Honor Whoo man Bryan Cranston. Yes, I don't know if that dude can miss lately going from Breaking Bad to wherever else he's been, and now he's what's been, and now he's what's that movie that he's in. Why him?
Speaker 2:oh, oh yeah with uh the one actor I don't like.
Speaker 1:Yeah you don't like him.
Speaker 2:I love the dude james franco I mean he's starting to grow on me, but I think he's just too much yeah, he's, he's a little too much, and he plays the same person in every movie.
Speaker 1:Okay, well, so do quite a few of these other actors Melissa McCarthy, Jason Bateman. Some of these people are kind of just typecast. You want to know who I think is probably one of the most typecast actors or actresses in the world?
Speaker 2:Who.
Speaker 1:Anna Faris.
Speaker 2:Oh, okay.
Speaker 1:I don't think she can play. I don't know if she's in a serious role in any movies. I don't think so, but they always make her play the dumb ditzy blonde scary movie scream, whatever it was that she was in.
Speaker 2:Hot chick.
Speaker 1:She's in all them goofy movies, right? Yet again, Adam Sandler's. Usually the same guy in every movie.
Speaker 2:Rob schneider is the same guy in every movie, but adam sandler can play a serious role, yeah he can.
Speaker 1:Yeah, uncut gems was pretty amazing. It was underrated um the cobbler, the cobbler the cobbler. I love that movie. I didn't even know what a cobbler was until I seen that movie. I didn't know what's that. The way, that's what they called the people that repair shoes.
Speaker 2:I didn't either. I thought it was just like a peach cobbler. Hell yeah, a peach cobbler.
Speaker 1:If we might be going to Mama's house or we're going to have to hit up Ace and Amy.
Speaker 2:Yeah, or we can go to what is it called Marie Callender's.
Speaker 1:Some peach pie. What is it called Marie?
Speaker 2:Callender's Some peach pie. Oh yeah, peach pie.
Speaker 1:Do they have cobbler at Marie Callender's?
Speaker 2:I don't know what.
Speaker 1:Then why did you say Marie Callender's?
Speaker 2:Well, I was just thinking peach baby, oh man, Peach is my favorite.
Speaker 1:Work is going pretty good.

Yeah, you're not. You're not allowed in the house. No, and you certainly don't be coming and going no and then I would get threatened and like oh, you know, I'm gonna give you work to do. Then I'm like oh hell, no, I'm good, I'll stay out here Drinking out of a water hose in Arvin, smelling like hot eggs.
Speaker 2:Ew yeah, the water stunk.
Speaker 1:I think it's sulfur right.
Speaker 2:Oh.
Speaker 1:I think it's sulfur, but you know there's probably a whole lot of contaminants out there in Arvin's water. Lot of contaminants out there in arvin's water.
Speaker 1:it's probably uh, right up next there to flint michigan, and they're bad water and pipes and things like that and I recalled on a few occasions you, you had to boil your water like, like a thing came out from the arvin. You know council or district or somebody saying, hey, we, we found traces of XYZ chemical which could cause blah, blah, blah and I'm like, hey, man, wait, but did you have a water bill, do you remember I? Don't know, I didn't pay bills girl.
Speaker 2:Well, I remember we didn't have a water bill in Los Hills. Well, you were on well water I don't know, but there was no water bill. Anybody in Lost Hills didn't have to pay for water.
Speaker 1:Well, maybe that's part of the city, Maybe the city took care of it. Part of taxes and stuff.
Speaker 2:Probably because of immigrants probably.
Speaker 1:Oh, like housing or whatever, fair housing. I don't know, maybe I don't know. Yeah farm workers.
Speaker 2:We didn't have to pay for it.
Speaker 1:That's all right. What else have we got? What else we got?
Speaker 2:going.
Speaker 1:I don't know we need to take a trip out to the beach. Yeah, we definitely want to go out to ventura. That's our spot. That is our spot, uh rocks and drams, rocks and drams in ventura, santa monica, with the girls. Yeah, that's one of my. I don't, can't, I don't know if it's one of my favorite memories, but it was a very fond memory.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:When we all went out there, we took the girls out there. We stayed in a hotel right on the water. We were all cramped into this little hotel, but we were as happy as can be right.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:We were walking around went shopping. We gave the girls all $100 a piece or something, yeah, and we got five little girls and plus something yeah, and we got five little girls and plus.
Speaker 2:I was still paying with my card on the side here and they're hooking my girls up. Uh, my mom's over here, stop it but you don't complain when I'm slipping you money I decide not to get anything, and then you get upset because I don't want to get anything you do not yes, I do, I'd be like, absolutely do not, and that means, you do want it, and then I have to cave in and give it to you. No, you give it to me anyways.
Speaker 1:But anyways, we were walking around doing our thing on the boardwalk. We took the girls back to the room and then they went to bed. We walked downstairs, went down to the corner and this security guard seen us.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:He says he seen us and he said did you guys drop the kids off? And I'm like do we know this guy? What do you mean? Did we drop the kids off? Who are you man?
Speaker 2:Do we need to go back?
Speaker 1:And no, he had seen us earlier in the day and this is nighttime, so this is probably near the end of his shift, you know, seven hours later he sees us. Says, did you drop the kids off? And we're like, yeah, we did. And he remembered us from earlier seeing all the girls walking with us.
Speaker 2:Yeah, Like little ducklings, uh-.
Speaker 1:And he remembered us from earlier seeing all the girls walking with us. Yeah.
Speaker 2:Yeah, like little ducklings, uh-huh. Yeah, okay, let's talk about that other guy.
Speaker 1:Oh man, the first bar.
Speaker 2:The first bar.
Speaker 1:Okay, this dude, we go in. We're just trying to have one drink, just trying to enjoy each other's company. Wind down, relax. We looked at the menu. We didn't order anything, I don't think. Did we order food there? No, we just ordered. We just ordered um drinks. Yeah, we just ordered a drink. Bartender was cool a couple bartenders were back there, I think and there was this dude sitting on the other side of the bar and this dude had a fresh, fresh tattooed and I'm not talking about art, I'm not talking about you know his last name on the back of his head or some Post Malone tattoos on his face or anything else. This dude had his bald head speckled with tattoo ink, like little dots, like he had artificial, you know, to make it look like he had a buzz cut or something right. Like he had hair, he had a hairline, but he didn't.
Speaker 2:He didn't.
Speaker 1:And he was. I don't know if he was from New York or Jersey, definitely had an accent, yeah, and he was one of the most annoying individuals I have ever had to endure yeah and the bartender apparently agreed because he looked at us and he said I wish he would just shut the fuck up or something like that, like he said, and then he started giggling and then I think the guy finally got it. I think he finally understood that he was kind of just an annoying little.
Speaker 2:Yeah, he was being annoying.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:I mean, maybe he was there by himself, right Like the whole weekend, or whatever.
Speaker 1:Oh man, he needed someone to talk to. There's a reason why you're alone, apparently, my guy, because you're annoying as hell. There's a reason why you're alone.
Speaker 2:That was a good memory.
Speaker 1:Yeah, g's Body Works is picking back up a little again. Had to take a little bit of downtime and a little time off to sort some things and handle some business. Rest, you know. Rest, yeah, rest, rest was a big thing. Rest, rest, yeah, rest, rest was a big thing. A few days weeks ago I kind of felt like I might be burnt out. I even told my mom on the phone. I was like, mom, I don't know if I'm either going to have to just cut something out or if I just need a few good days of rest so I can just attack again. Right, and I'm good, I'm good, and I always tell people this, this, saying that somebody once told me the weights don't get lighter, you get stronger.
Speaker 1:Yeah, so when you go into the gym and you're curling 15 pound dumbbells or something, right, well, at first those things might be kind of heavy for you yeah but you know, you get into a month down the road, three months down the road, a year down the road, all of a sudden you're curling 35s or something right. The weight didn't get any lighter. That 15-pound dumbbell remains that 15-pound dumbbell. It's static, it's always 15 pounds. You just got stronger.
Speaker 1:So when you're going through it, when you're struggling, when you're tired, I try to look back and think about that as an opportunity to become bigger, stronger, faster, more powerful, smarter, wiser, whatever. All of the above as an opportunity. Yeah, it's hard as hell right now. Yeah, I'm just tired, I'm exhausted, but I figure, if I force my way through all of this, I already have that under my belt, right, and then that doesn't phase me again because I know how to deal with it, or I know what to expect, or I know how to handle it better or differently, right, I know, maybe I got to take care a little bit of care of myself the day before, or something that you know, whatever it may be you did it.
Speaker 2:I haven't been feeling well and you've been kind of picking everything up.
Speaker 1:Yeah you know um? They always say relationships are 50. You know, and they're not. They're not Sometimes 60-40, sometimes 90-10, sometimes 110-10, right.
Speaker 2:Like you're goddamn worthless.
Speaker 1:Right now. You're just a lump of flesh laying there just breathing right Uh-huh. And even then, we always have something to contribute, right yeah, whether it just be a quick laugh or a you know A rub, a rub, you know, just human touch.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:Just like hey, everything's cool, we're good, you're okay, I'll see you tomorrow. Let's start over you better bring more than zero, zero, all right. Well, have uh, the podcast going. We are live on pretty much every single platform you could imagine. That's awesome, which is kind of surreal to me, like was it hard to do? No, it was pretty easy to do once I dug into it and figured it out right.
Speaker 1:It's pretty easy to do and it just at that point it's going to be what's your format? What's your podcast going to be about? Hell, we don't even have a name for this podcast yet we don't. Right, the other podcast we renamed. Yeah, it's Most Dope.
Speaker 2:Most.
Speaker 1:Dope. Of course it's Mac dope most of course it's mac miller.
Speaker 1:It's mac miller related, my love for mac miller, appreciation for mac miller, um, and just living the most dope life right, just always in that mindset that we are going to be the most dope. Wherever we're at, whatever we're doing, whatever we're putting our time, energy, effort, money, whatever it may be, it's going to be most dope. Yeah, um, and obviously there's, you know, that's a, that's a dj podcast, that's a music podcast, entertainment, current events, that's um, it coincides right, it makes sense. But for our podcast, I have no idea what we're going to name this. We're definitely not going to leave it. Gordie B and Queen B, those are monikers, those are aliases, those are names.
Speaker 1:Those are nicknames. We're going to have to come up with something very unique, very cool, something that'll draw, and we also need and I apologize to everybody listening right now we have no format. We have absolutely no format. We don't have no idea what we're doing. Uh, we haven't gotten that far. We haven't gotten to the point where we're planning out our podcast and things of that nature and what we're going to talk about. Everything that we're doing right now is completely on the fly off the top yeah, completely organic.
Speaker 1:It's real. I'm trying not to cuss so much today.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:You know, I don't mind cussing. I cuss a lot normally.
Speaker 2:And.
Speaker 1:I feel like I should be authentic and I should cuss, but then I feel like maybe I'll tone it down just a little bit. Yeah, not cuss. I don't know. I don't know how I feel about it. Fuck it, I don't know. I don't know how I feel about it. Fuck it, I don't know. At least let one out, baby yeah every once in a while, or else I'm going to have some tremors or something.
Speaker 2:It's like Cassius. So we have a dog, his name is Cassius, and we tell him not to bark and I swear he's like shaking, because he can't bark.
Speaker 1:Yeah, he hates it. It's like Tourette's. Yes, it's like Tourette's. I cuss, I have Tourette's. Fuck, they just have Tourette's. You know, cassius has Tourette's, he likes to bark. I have to hold a squirt bottle and I have to like if anybody comes to the door. We got like five dogs. Like if anybody comes to the door, we got like five dogs. All of them bark. So you have to go around shooting them with water bottles, shooting them with squirt bottles, trying to teach them or trying to, and I think it's too late, I think they're all too old. I failed. They're not trainable at this point. You can't teach old dogs new tricks kind of mantra. You can't do it. But I'm still trying.
Speaker 2:He shakes.
Speaker 1:Yeah, he don't like it, he gets raged up, he does he's like come on, dad, just let me bark. Have you seen that movie, mystery Men? So there's a movie with Ben Stiller.
Speaker 2:Another actor, zoolander.
Speaker 1:Meet the Fockers.
Speaker 2:Ben Stiller. That is one of my favorite movies.
Speaker 1:Jerry Stiller is his dad, but anyways, he plays this quote-unquote superhero in this movie called Mystery man. There's like five of them and they all have a quote-unquote superpower. That's not super and, if I recall, ben Stiller's superpower was getting angry. All he did was get mad and shake and nothing would happen. There was another guy with a shovel. He hit people over the head with a shovel, I think. I think there was one of them tarot readers, psychics mediums. I think there was one, a like a one of them, like, uh, one of them tarot readers, psychics mediums. I think there was one of them dudes.
Speaker 1:he had like a turban on, like a pink turban I don't remember but the movie's wild right, it's a goofy fucking movie and you might not like it because it's you know it's not as bad as pootie tang guys come on. No, hey, it's super power. Sign your hippie people with a belt. I'm a running kind. Hey, my dad had a super power. He whipped my ass with a belt too. That shit worked. But, did it really.
Speaker 2:Hey, hey, did it really work?
Speaker 1:I made it this far. I'm not in jail, I'm not in prison.
Speaker 2:You know, I remember my dad used to spank with us too, with the belt he kept me off the pole.
Speaker 1:I didn't become a stripper. I have been known to get naked, though I really don't care about that. That doesn't bother me. I'll run around naked. Tino told you a story about that. Oh yeah, it's okay. Okay, whip it out, plop it on people's shoulders that's nasty.
Speaker 2:You're so gross he doesn't do that anymore. No, I haven't done that anymore.
Speaker 1:That's uh. Nowadays that is sexual harassment. Back in my days, uh, that shit was just funny. You, you got a dick on your shoulder. You turn and look and there's one looking right at you. That's nasty. It was in my immature days.
Speaker 2:Just like waiting.
Speaker 1:Oh man waiting. Yeah, that's another great movie and that's Ryan Reynolds right.
Speaker 2:Uh-huh.
Speaker 1:Ryan Reynolds probably got his start in waiting Maybe another low-budget film before that, but then he had X-Men Origins or whatever, where basically he was Deadpool in there. He had swords, but he wasn't Deadpool. He was Deadpool, but he wasn'tpool he was deadpool, but he wasn't. Yeah, um, I don't know if he actually was deadpool, like I'm gonna have to look at the credits and see what his role was in the movie. Yeah, because he's definitely deadpool now. Yeah, and he's definitely with hugh jackman still in the new deadpool with wolverine oh okay, um, so there's the connection there.
Speaker 1:So he might have very well been a very young Deadpool, and I have no idea.
Speaker 2:We'll have to watch it.
Speaker 1:But you know, there's a whole lot of holes in that X-Men universe.
Speaker 2:Is there.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you know I don't know them off the top of my head, but previously, looking through the internet and stuff like that, you know articles have come up and they always have these things on how to watch movies chronologically, how to watch Star Wars from start to finish in the correct order, even though it's like episode four, five and six and then one, two and three and then seven, eight and nine and then all the offshoots.
Speaker 1:Well, they have the same thing for X-Men and how to watch all the x-men in chronological order oh, but there's still holes in the story and obviously different actors all the time.
Speaker 2:And yeah, you know, I don't.
Speaker 1:I don't like when actors change it's not my thing. Like spider-man, I don't like that they've done well on the newer spider-Mans. The Tobey Maguire Spider-Mans were corny as hell.
Speaker 2:The first ones yeah.
Speaker 1:They were kind of corny. You know James Franco was in there. So William Dafoe William Dafoe was a Green Goblin. I love William Dafoe. You know you talk about William Dafoe and you can go to Boondock Saints. You know a lot of good William Dafoe movies. You know an actor that we left off the list, who Christopher Walken? Are you kidding me? Look, they can't see your face, but they can hear your silence.
Speaker 2:I'm just not good with names Christopher Walken. You know who he is. I'm sure not good with names, christopher Walken you know who he is.
Speaker 1:I'm sure he was on here. No, he's not on there. I would have seen him Just type in Christopher Walken. Oh man, this is the most painful thing watching you Well, I mean see it or is the? Most painful thing watching you Bebe. Well, I mean serious, or do something, I mean.
Speaker 2:Christopher Walken. I don't like him either.
Speaker 1:What.
Speaker 2:No.
Speaker 1:Hell. No, he was in Pulp Fiction too. He hit a watch up his ass. I'm saying this Pulp Fiction movie, oh my God, that is like your favorite movie.
Speaker 1:It's not my favorite movie, but it is an epic movie. You have Ving Rhames, a great black actor that again probably wasn't on that list. You have John Travolta, you have Samuel Jackson, you have Uma Thurman I don't remember what the guy's name, the cleaner dude but he's a great actor as well. Bruce Willis. Bruce Willis is in that movie too. I mean, that movie was packed full of just top list actors, you know, and their, their careers just got better and better over the years, right? Um, another movie, boiler roomiler Room had so many actors in that movie that went on to do pretty good things. Ben Affleck was in that movie. What is his name? Giovanni Ribisi, giovanni Ribisi, something like that. He's in a lot of movies. You have the one kid that was in Gone, gone in 60 seconds.
Speaker 1:He was in boiler room yeah, quite a few people in boiler room and I'm missing out. Nia long was in boiler room. A lot of people in boiler room, amazing movie, pretty good soundtrack too yeah um, another favorite. I mean, if I have to say what my favorite movie is of all time, it's really hard. It might be Shaun of the Dead. It's a zombie movie. It's a comedy. Great actor Simon Pegg and Nick Frost. They've done a lot of movies together. They were in Paul together.
Speaker 2:Oh, okay, okay, yeah.
Speaker 1:And Paul's a funny-ass movie too.
Speaker 2:Seth Rogen is the alien right. Oh, you do like that movie. I remember it now. It's funny as hell. Yeah, it's all right.
Speaker 1:Okay, what's your favorite movie, let's hear it. No, hell, no. If I got to commit to one, let's commit to one girl.
Speaker 2:I'm chick flicky.
Speaker 1:Okay, Well, your favorite Simply Irresistible. Yeah, that is my favorite movie. Is that the purple lobster, or something?
Speaker 2:Yep, the blue lobster Is a blue lobster.
Speaker 1:It's ridiculous.
Speaker 2:It's not a lobster, it's a crab.
Speaker 1:Okay, it's a crustacean.
Speaker 2:It's a sea creature, but it's so cute, that movie is so cute.
Speaker 1:Those movies you watch, babe.
Speaker 2:They're adorable.
Speaker 1:Look, I'm glad you enjoy them. Trust me, I'm glad you enjoy them. They're painful, just like your Pooodie Tang. No, I don't watch Poodie Tang.
Speaker 2:20 times a month. Well, that was painful. It still hurts.
Speaker 1:No, nowhere near equivalent of your chick flicks, your rom-coms. They all are the same movie over. But you know what that's really Hollywood? At this point, hollywood is the same movie over and over and over and over regurgitated, recycled. There's nothing fresh, especially, you know you got peel right. Peels, the one that's doing the uh, I don't know if it's key or peel, but one of them, the one that's doing the, the horror movies right now right, even those movies aren't scary yeah, no, you, no, you know there's no, scary movies Like Texas Chainsaw Massacre is not scary.
Speaker 1:Freddy's not scary yes, they are. It's not scary, it's not real. It's not real, but they're scary. Well, I think the Texas Chainsaw Massacre might have been based on.
Speaker 2:I think it was, and they couldn't find him. No, no, he's still running around. I don't know now, but they couldn't find him.
Speaker 1:Well, if he listened to this podcast, he better not come over here.
Speaker 2:Oh no, He'll be dead. Yeah, because we're not going to run the wrong direction.
Speaker 1:No, we got pistols and rifles. We're not running anywhere. You come in here, you're going to be riddled like Swiss cheese. Do not do it. And that's not a tough guy act either. Look, that's just me protecting my home and my family. Don't come to my property, don't do it. We live in a cul-de-sac with primarily businesses, so if you come down my street after five, I'm just gonna assume bad intentions yeah yeah, you know.
Speaker 1:Look, maybe you didn't update your gps for five years and you didn't know that alan isn't alan anymore and you didn't know you went under an underpass. You know to go to shafter or anywhere else, right?
Speaker 2:but it only takes you like maybe 20 seconds to get in and get out. Yeah, don't park on my street, don't?
Speaker 1:park on my street. Don't park on my street. I'm going to go out there. I'm going to take a picture of your license plate. I'll take a picture of you and I will be armed.
Speaker 2:Yeah, no, don't do it man.
Speaker 1:Just don't do it.
Speaker 2:Trying to get me upset over here. No, I'm not.
Speaker 1:Yeah, we are coming up on the hour mark for our podcast already. Yeah, it's already at 55 minutes and I think crazy, I think going forward. You know just a little bit of the research I've been doing or I was able to do, I think, podcasts in the range of 30 to 45 minutes okay are more um digestible for people. An hour is a long time out of somebody's day, especially hours.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:Right.
Speaker 2:It is.
Speaker 1:An hour is a long time. Now look, yeah, you can listen to part of it on the way to work, part of it on the way back. You can listen to it wherever you want, to get a laugh or just a peek into our lives. If you're interested in that for some reason, which quite a few people seem to be Both good and bad, that's all right. Yeah, which is fine, I don't care.
Speaker 2:We don't care.
Speaker 1:We have fun yeah.
Speaker 2:That's all that matters.
Speaker 1:Yeah, we got a couple trips we're going to be planning soon. Yeah, we got Jamaica.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:Thailand.
Speaker 2:Thailand, and then Ireland, ireland yeah, we got um jamaica. Yeah, thailand, thailand, and then ireland, ireland. We're gonna do a mini vegas one.
Speaker 1:Yeah, just because you want to go play huff and puff and even more puff or something I have to play even if we go, and that's all. Here's the question why is that game not at the indian casinos? I mean, look, I haven't been to Tatchy for over a year probably.
Speaker 2:But I don't think it's at Tatchy.
Speaker 1:It probably isn't, but in Tatchy's defense they did have Farmville and nobody else has it.
Speaker 2:I know why do we keep sticking to our games.
Speaker 1:Well, look, what are our games. Look, when we go into Eagle Mountain, for instance, we pretty much have a routine almost Right Right, we go to top dollar.
Speaker 2:Top dollar.
Speaker 1:Throw a hundred in top dollar.
Speaker 2:We usually get.
Speaker 1:Try to get 10 spins in. Try to get a bonus.
Speaker 2:And we usually get.
Speaker 1:We usually get one.
Speaker 2:Yeah, we end up with like 240.
Speaker 1:And then we like to do the little backspin, where we'll spin it a couple more times just in case it wants to proc for us again.
Speaker 2:And sometimes it does, and then we do pinball.
Speaker 1:I haven't been a fan of pinball lately.
Speaker 2:We haven't been, but we still do it.
Speaker 1:Yeah, we try. It's been good to us previously.
Speaker 2:Yeah, we still do two. I mean, we still do $100 on pinball. And if it doesn't give us anything, then it doesn't give us anything.
Speaker 1:Eureka is a big one. We love Eureka.
Speaker 2:We do love Eureka, but it hasn't been good to us either, Like they tightened the game for some reason.
Speaker 1:They're probably trying to pay for their hotel.
Speaker 2:Yeah, that's true.
Speaker 1:I mean, I feel like I don't know if anybody really knows unless you're way up in the high up ranks at these casinos whether they loosen slots or tighten them.
Speaker 2:When's the best time to?
Speaker 1:go yeah. Or if it's just completely RNG random number generator, it's completely random. Random number generator, it's completely random. Now you see these little things where you're like, okay, go to the machine, see if the bonus up on the top is. You know, the bowl is about to spill over, right, so you can get a free little bonus game.
Speaker 2:But sometimes they're full and it takes forever.
Speaker 1:Oh man, and I think they trap you by enticing you to try to get that little bonus right?
Speaker 2:Yeah, I think so.
Speaker 1:And then Huff and Puff.
Speaker 2:We play. Huff and Puff Hasn't been good to us lately either, but we still like to play.
Speaker 1:I do crazy roulette stuff.
Speaker 2:Yeah, you do $300 spins $300 spins.
Speaker 1:You know that's nothing to brag about you. You know $300 isn't a whole lot anymore and, um, probably not smart. Right, it's a gamble, obviously, and you know I don't go in there with $5,000 by all means. Um, so you know that that $300 roulette spin is a once in a once in a while kind of thing. It's not an every roll kind of thing, no, no. I don't mess around with that.
Speaker 2:And then I like to play 88. Is it 8 to 88?
Speaker 1:What is it? 88 Fortunes or Fortune 88s.
Speaker 2:Something like that. That one's a good one. That one I like too.
Speaker 1:And then you like the rooster and the dragon.
Speaker 2:Oh yeah.
Speaker 1:That's a new one I got into. Yeah, what is that?
Speaker 2:one where they have orbs Yep Little orbs the more orbs you have on your screen eventually it'll help you get a bonus or something. Yeah, that one did really good to us, but I got to say we don't ever really win.
Speaker 1:No Right, in the big scheme of everything we don't win. We see some other people posting their wins and things of that nature and I'm like okay, well, how much money did it take you to get to that little win you got right yeah like you gotta pay out, you gotta hand pay.
Speaker 1:you got a twenty five hundred dollar hand pay but nobody sees that you put five thousand dollars into the casino that day. Yeah, so that win. I mean, you can portray anything you want to portray to social media and Facebook and TikTok and Instagram and all of these people, all of the ones that you watch, d-lucky especially, but you have that girl that you watch all the time.
Speaker 2:Lady Luck.
Speaker 1:Lady Luck.
Speaker 2:We have no idea the truth behind everything, behind how much money they've poured in, and you know the casino probably gives them money anyways, right to play and record, because a lot of the times they say what casino they're at do you think they have um supporters?
Speaker 1:do you think they have fans that send them money?
Speaker 2:to gamble, yes, and I also think that instagram pays them money too. That's a weird day. Yeah, I mean, they're monetized?
Speaker 1:yeah, they're absolutely monetized, but I don't think they're getting in the amount of money that they're putting out no which makes it hard to think that I mean they must have have a couple good careers or they were trust fund babies. They have a lot of money always coming in and they can afford to do that, right, yeah, but never do I think anybody actually ever truly wins. Maybe here and there one-off. Yeah yeah, here and there one-off. You see somebody win $1.2 million in a Las Vegas airport recently. Yeah.
Speaker 2:Or however much it was. What about that guy babe, when we went to the casino? He won $55,000.
Speaker 1:Oh, but he said he was still down by like 20 or something.
Speaker 2:No, no, I'm talking about the guy that didn't have the ID. Is that how much that guy won? Yes, he won $55,000.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you got to not be very smart to go into a casino, gamble, win and not have your ID on you. A you're in California, b have your goddamn ID. And C you can get your ID on your phone now. So there's absolutely no reason not to have your driver's license or ID on you at any point in time license or id on you at any point in time unless you were just so unlucky that you both either forgot your cell phone and wallet or they were stolen. Those are the only two scenarios, and that's few and far between I hope yeah, well, I mean, you know what's nice about eagle mountain too.
Speaker 1:As I said, he had 30 days to come and get his yeah, and there was another girl there like a month or two later than when we were gambling and we were over in the high limit section doing, I think, top dollar, and they were on what's the?
Speaker 2:Like Dragon.
Speaker 1:Link, dragon Link. They were on Dragon Link and she was spinning, right, she was on it and she won, but she didn't have her id or anything like that. And she tried to say no, no, it was my boyfriend or my husband that was spinning, and the casino has a freaking camera, a billion cameras speckled in the ceiling. Like girl, you're not gonna be able to lie about this. No, um. So they told her you know you're not going to be able to lie about this. No. So they told her, you know you're going to have to come back with an ID in 30 days too, within 30 days.
Speaker 2:I wonder how many people never get to come back yeah.
Speaker 1:I wonder if the guy who won the $55,000.
Speaker 2:Ever came back.
Speaker 1:A ever came back, or B like he was like a felon or something right, Like he was on the run or like some kind of extreme circumstances where you're not going to be able to get an ID. And even then, at that point I'm going to go find a fucking fake ID. I will go pay $1,000 or whatever I got to pay for, to get a fake ID so I can go back to the casino and get my money.
Speaker 2:Yeah, but also the DMV is not going to be like, oh, you're going to get arrested if you want an ID.
Speaker 1:No, but won't they put a hold on it? They'll definitely put a hold on it. I'm sure they will, I think. If it's anything, yeah, okay, I'm sure they'll put a hold on it. I'm sure they will, I think. If it's anything, yeah, okay, I'm sure they'll put a hold on it, like they're going to make your life as impossible as can be. If you're Well, that sucks.
Speaker 2:I don't know.
Speaker 1:Don't do stupid shit. That's true, you know, that's true, hopefully it was something minor and hopefully he was able to go back and get his Get his money. Who were we there with? Was it Rich and his wife, uh-huh, when he had won that much?
Speaker 2:It was Rich and his wife yes it was Rich was DJing up there.
Speaker 1:We went up there to support hang out. We try to take a trip up there every once in a while as we can. Usually it's once a week, it was. You are are expensive but guess what? You're my expensive. Yeah, oh, I know I trust me, I know but guess what, what? I'm yours too, oh great baby well, hey, you're killing me, I'm not killing you. Yeah, that's what. That's why women live longer than men.
Speaker 1:That's not true, it is true, I'm sure you could Siri it or Google it, right now, my grandpa outlived three wives. Because he got rid of them. No, they died, babe. They died, which is why he lived. Men die before women because y'all stress us and work us the hell out. You do it's proven. It's proven. I'm sure it is Listeners. Comment on it. We'll post this later. Comment on it. Men die younger than women because women are the most expensive, stressful thing in the world.
Speaker 2:But would you have it any other way?
Speaker 1:No, I'm good expensive, stressful thing in the world. But would you have it any other way? No, I'm good Because I you know.
Speaker 2:You adore me.
Speaker 1:Yeah, your love, your touch, all of this stuff that we do. You know our adventures. I can handle the for the most part. I can handle most of it. I'm still going to have my moments, though. I'm still going to have my moments, though I'm still going to have to check you sometimes.
Speaker 2:Sometimes Like never Because you always get your way, even though you try to check me.
Speaker 1:We have a good understanding, we have a good relationship. That's great. We don't have to check each other, we don't have to do any of that. We're like, yeah, go ahead. Great, we don't have to check each other.
Speaker 2:We don't have to do any of that we're like yeah, go ahead, I don't care, have fun, do your thing, which is hard for me, you know why, like I still have a hard time, like not asking you asking me what like when I say hey, babe, is it okay if I buy this shirt? Yeah, I don't like when you do that.
Speaker 1:you make me seem like some kind of monster, and I sure hope you don't ever do that in front of our friends and family. Hey babe, can I buy this? Like I'm not controlling? I don't care what you buy with your money, girl. Spend it on whatever you want. We might die tomorrow, but spend that money. See, I'm going to enjoy what I've been working for. I do.
Speaker 2:I do have a hard time spending money.
Speaker 1:But that's past traumas, past relationships, past circumstances. But I've never given you anything, any flack for buying anything.
Speaker 2:No.
Speaker 1:I don't care.
Speaker 2:No.
Speaker 1:I do not care.
Speaker 2:I know you don't, especially if it's an $8 shirt.
Speaker 1:Yeah, like Jesus Christ, I get text messages from this girl. She messages me or calls me Babe, I seen this, the cutest shirt, the cutest chain, this or that or whatever it may be. Can I buy it? I'm like you're a fucking grown woman, do what you want to do. I don't want to have to think. I got to think for myself already. You think for yourself. If you know you can afford it and we can swing it, then do it. And even if we can't, we'll figure it out and make it work.
Speaker 2:And sometimes I still come home and he'll ask me did you buy it? And I'll be like no, no, I left it there.
Speaker 1:And then she'll go back the next day and it's gone. I'm like well, you fucking missed that train.
Speaker 2:It wasn't for me, then that one's out of the station and gone.
Speaker 1:Somebody got it. But you know it's the same way with me. I buy whatever the hell I want to buy, but lately, in my aging days, in my 40s now this is my birthday month, by the way- yeah. Gemini season.
Speaker 2:Híjole.
Speaker 1:I know, hey, I feel bad for anybody with a Gemini. You know I don't really pay much attention to the you know, astrology and all this other stuff. I think there's probably a little something to all of it, right, there's probably a little something to numerology. There's probably a little something to all of it. Right, there's probably a little something to numerology. There's probably a little something to astrology. There's probably little bits and pieces here and there. However, even a broken clock is right twice a day.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:It's right, twice a day. So all these horoscopes and this, and oh, you're gonna be in center grade and this and that, and in in gemini's and in aquarius's and whoever the hell else and this and that, and you know, eventually something, one of these horoscopes is gonna touch you right, yeah, and be like, oh yeah, that's me and and I think that's more of humans wanting to be a part of something than it is actual fact. Right, I want to belong to something. I want to be a.
Speaker 2:Gemini.
Speaker 1:I want to be a blood. I want to be a Democrat, right. You know you lock yourself into these positions. They're just silliness. Because you want to be a part of something, you want to be in a of something, you want to be in a group. You want to be. People want to be a part of something, but they don't want to do anything on their own yeah it'd be great on your own.
Speaker 1:Have people want to be a part of what you're doing. Yeah, that's true. Right like, don't be following people. Don't follow anybody no don't follow these.
Speaker 1:Republicans and democrats, they're all the same. Republicans only have a problem with something once a democrat does it. Democrats only have a problem with something once a republican does it. Meanwhile, our country's just getting fucked by both of them. Yet you still have all of these biden supporters and you still have all of these trump supporters, right, and they're like oh, the lesser of two evils, right? Dumb and dumber. Right, well, you're gonna pick dumb, right, you're not gonna pick dumber because, at least dumb's a little bit smarter than dumber.
Speaker 1:however, do we have to settle on dumb and dumber, or can we not find some excellence somewhere? That'll happen? Can we not find a 30-year West Point graduate?
Speaker 2:right, yeah.
Speaker 1:Military experience, education. You know everything right Like a Colin Powell was back in the days.
Speaker 2:Yeah, but you know money talks. Yeah, money talks, money is.
Speaker 1:So, as soon as our country gets rid of or imposes term limits, right, you can only serve for four years, eight years, whatever else, and you've got to get the hell out.
Speaker 1:You can't sit here and milk it for 50 fucking years like an old dinosaur, while the rest of America is young. You're not on the same page as the young people, right? Yeah, you do not relate. You're a generation, two generations older. Yep, yeah, as soon as they impose term limits to where people can't make a career out of being a politician, as soon as they remove money from politics, where you have these corporations, you have these entities. You have these people. You have these entities. You have these people with interests that are quote-unquote, donating to a campaign right, when in reality, they're buying something because they're expecting, once you become president, that you're going to, uh, have their best interest in mind right right.
Speaker 1:Until we get rid of money and politics, we impose term limits, our country will never be as great as it could and should be. And all of these people just settling for mediocrity I've never understood it and I would never settle for that. You wouldn't settle for that anywhere else.
Speaker 2:No.
Speaker 1:Anywhere else in the world you wouldn't settle for a mediocre paint job on your car.
Speaker 2:No.
Speaker 1:A mediocre engine job on your car. A mediocre dinner right, People get pissed off at dinner all the time. Right, yeah, my service at this place sucked. It was this. It was that the steak was overcooked. It was tough as leather. Whatever it may be. Right, yeah, People complain about shit all the time. People complain about McDonald's.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:Right. So why the hell would we settle for anything in this country?
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:We do not settle, we expect excellence. Yeah, and we can hold people to those standards, and that's to be expected in certain positions in our country. We have to hold people to certain standards. Police have to be held to a certain standard. Our president has to be held to a certain standard. Our president has to be held to a certain standard.
Speaker 1:Just, like you, hold anybody you do business with here in Bakersfield to a certain standard. You don't go around hiring or paying for mid-grade just mediocre. At least I don't. If I want something, I go all out. I get the best I absolutely can. Anyways, politics, religion, all that good stuff we don't really enjoy talking about too much with people.
Speaker 2:I'd rather not.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you know what? I've seen something today or yesterday they posted about uh, I don't argue with people. You know, I'm not going to argue with you. I'm not going to unless there's something, unless there's, um, an end to it, right, unless we can come to an agreement, unless we can, uh, come to an understanding, unless we can both be open a whole lot of things I'm not going to do it. I'm not going to argue with you.
Speaker 1:You're going to post your dumb political views on social media and think you're making a difference. You're not doing shit. You're not doing anything. You're a part of the problem. You're complaining like everybody else. You're a part of the problem. You're complaining like everybody else and you voting once every four years, just not going to do it because they really don't want to hear anything other than agreeance with their point, and they can go as far as posting some shit. That's just not even true, right? And it's like you're just sitting here laughing at them about how ignorant they could be for sharing or posting something that just you know, taken out of context or manipulated or photoshopped, and talking about that. They're saying that AI, artificial intelligence, computing, all of that good stuff. I've seen an article saying that they had seen something in fear of ai, that it was trying to figure out how to manipulate humans. What? This is stupid, but hey, as stupid as a whole lot of people are, they're gonna believe it yeah ai will be posting shit one day.
Speaker 1:And and these fox news people, these msnbc news people, these you know whatever. These you know whatever organization you want to be affiliated with. They're gonna manipulate people.
Speaker 1:Yeah, and it's gonna work, because we got a whole lot of dumb people in this world yeah, a whole lot of ignorance just rampant and again, like I said, it's more about people wanting to be a part of a gang, being a part of a society or something, than it is ignorance. Yeah, people have some kind of strong desire to be quote-unquote a part of something. Yeah, they didn't. I don't want to. Yeah, I got some examples. I'm not going to drop them though we might hurt some feelings around here, but anyways, our podcast is running on an hour and 17 minutes, so I think this is probably a great time to go ahead and just shut this thing down and we'll post it, and I think we're going to try to do bi-monthly, every other week or so. Yeah, we'll drop a podcast, maybe even weekly, but for sure every other week. Again, we got to figure out a name for this particular podcast.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:And we really need to get a format. Yeah, we do Because we're all over the place.
Speaker 2:I think today was more about movies we did good yeah, a lot of movies and a all over the place. I think today was more about movies we did good yeah, a lot of movies and a lot of food.
Speaker 1:And just business and life. Daughters, business, photo booths, djing, emceeing, body work, careers Speaking of, you're probably going to be shifting into a new position soon hopefully. And that'll be great. But, yeah, we're going to go ahead and wrap up this podcast. Anybody who made it to an hour and 18 minutes of listening to our shit hey, I applaud you. Good job. I apologize. The next podcast we will keep down to about 30 minutes to 45 minutes or so, and we'll play it by that.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:But thanks for everybody that listens and we'll see you in a couple weeks.
Speaker 2:Thank you.
