[SPEAKER_03]: Welcome to our show.
[SPEAKER_10]: We're going to start with the race.
[SPEAKER_03]: Got to be fucking look at our phone.
[SPEAKER_10]: There's plenty for everyone.
[SPEAKER_10]: It's the Michael Mero Show with Michael Mero.
[SPEAKER_10]: Bye!
[SPEAKER_10]: Josh Roca!
[SPEAKER_10]: And Rob Speedway.
[SPEAKER_10]: It's only the beginning.
[SPEAKER_11]: And now, here's Mike.
[SPEAKER_11]: Trying another guy that I wanted to talk to on the show, and my algorithm, my weird, weird, dark, dismal, just oddball algorithm for stuff that comes my way when I'm doing what everybody does.
[SPEAKER_11]: I believe it's eliminating reading from our world, I think there are people that are still worldly and knowledgeable, that probably tear through literature and books, but they're not enough of us anymore because we're all doing that five-second scrolling.
[SPEAKER_11]: And in my case today, I think the guy's name
[SPEAKER_11]: might be Andrew or maybe Arnold.
[SPEAKER_11]: I'm not sure he is a South African gentleman that goes from house to house and he finds poisonous snakes in South Africa.
[SPEAKER_11]: Specifically, Blick, Blick, Mumbai.
[SPEAKER_11]: Is this a business or a hobby?
[SPEAKER_11]: I believe it's a business where he gets paid to go out and rid people of these deadly venomous snakes but they sound so strangely like the plot of a three-stirge is short.
[SPEAKER_11]: No, he's at an office and he gets a call, but oh my god, the way he does it, the way he handles it.
[SPEAKER_11]: I mean, they are at least in the top five of the most venomous
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, he goes around and finds these snakes and sometimes in the most precarious situations.
[SPEAKER_11]: And once he gets done, he takes him out and everybody's going, and then he had last night.
[SPEAKER_11]: He went out like to a junkyard where they saw this black mamba, sending itself every single day.
[SPEAKER_11]: And he brought, he's got fans online from Germany that come on a vacation to South Africa.
[SPEAKER_08]: kind of interesting the Germans going to South Africa, isn't it?
[SPEAKER_09]: Oh, I mean, it's an international world we live in, Mike.
[SPEAKER_11]: I understand.
[SPEAKER_11]: And then so this couple comes down to and they want to go on a call with him and they go out on a call.
[SPEAKER_11]: And he's gotten snakes out of these, these crawl spaces, who has his post, are they continuing or did they just happen to stop recently suddenly?
[SPEAKER_09]: I'm just curious.
[SPEAKER_09]: No, I'm just curious.
[SPEAKER_11]: No, I think I think you're going to see this guy around for a long time, but he is.
[SPEAKER_11]: fearless and based on that they're two guys that float around.
[SPEAKER_11]: There's a venom guy that that works in a very controlled environment and he's very careful while at the same time he is dealing with these massive size black bombers and then there's this guy that goes out and gets it in the light.
[SPEAKER_11]: This guy and I will show you remember this name but I don't so sorry about that.
[SPEAKER_11]: I
[SPEAKER_09]: Do you think that to be an effective Black Mamba fighter, this exterminator, you have to have some stupidity?
[SPEAKER_11]: He's not an exterminator up.
[SPEAKER_09]: Oh, okay.
[SPEAKER_09]: For Black Mamba removal.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_11]: I believe his name is Jason Arnold.
[SPEAKER_11]: Jason Arnold.
[SPEAKER_11]: Oh, Arnold is not the last name.
[SPEAKER_11]: It's Jason Arnold.
[SPEAKER_11]: Can we see a quick video of Jason when you go up, he's going to judge all the, I'll get that downloaded.
[SPEAKER_11]: Of course.
[SPEAKER_11]: the ability for this guy to, uh, he uses those little tongs with the long pole with the clip on it.
[SPEAKER_11]: And but then immediately takes his hand right down to the head of the snake.
[SPEAKER_11]: You know, that's the business end.
[SPEAKER_11]: Sure.
[SPEAKER_11]: And, uh, and really how he does this is stunning to me.
[SPEAKER_11]: And, uh, and he's, you know, he's kind, I don't want to say that he's awkward
[SPEAKER_11]: But he definitely flirts with disaster because sometimes he's in a very awkward, uh, and you said it's Jason Arnold.
[SPEAKER_11]: Jason, the name of the guy.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yes.
[SPEAKER_11]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_11]: I want to see if we can talk to him because he obviously would be a hell of a time difference.
[SPEAKER_11]: But warning, he is a trained professional.
[SPEAKER_11]: So do not do this at all.
[SPEAKER_09]: How do you get trained for grabbing a snake?
[SPEAKER_11]: Because you work with people that remove snakes from South African homes, right?
[SPEAKER_11]: I think that it's a dwindling business problem.
[SPEAKER_08]: No, no, no, no, it's common in other parts of the world.
[SPEAKER_08]: I'm just intrigued he took fans with him.
[SPEAKER_02]: How's it, everyone?
[SPEAKER_02]: Good morning, and it goes on and on, you got a skiff like that.
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, you're through a half of it.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yes.
[SPEAKER_11]: Chopped.
[SPEAKER_11]: There he is.
[SPEAKER_11]: He did.
[SPEAKER_11]: He found it.
[SPEAKER_11]: Now, now, now, now rewind that for justly.
[SPEAKER_11]: I'm sorry, sir.
[SPEAKER_02]: I've brought some tools along because I thought that this might happen.
[SPEAKER_11]: He's at a job.
[SPEAKER_02]: He jumped down there.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's not clear.
[SPEAKER_02]: And it's way overgrown.
[SPEAKER_02]: I need to just make a clearing on this side and the clearing on that side.
[SPEAKER_02]: You can skip ahead a little bit.
[SPEAKER_11]: And then he's, all right, stop right there.
[SPEAKER_11]: And he's just digging around.
[SPEAKER_11]: He's digging around where there is a deadly venomous snake.
[SPEAKER_02]: And I can just grab all of these piles.
[SPEAKER_09]: It sounds to me like he's actually clearing a path to the sort of guess where the snake will escape.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, I think so.
[SPEAKER_11]: I think so now he's going through this for just being a scam.
[SPEAKER_09]: It's someone to clean up your yard.
[SPEAKER_11]: No, I think he's been asked by the workers at the backyard to, uh, I think you're right.
[SPEAKER_11]: At least he's got a spotter.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_11]: That's not a spotter.
[SPEAKER_11]: That's the tourist that came to watch him.
[SPEAKER_11]: Oh, okay.
[SPEAKER_11]: Now he's got some big tarp that he's lifting up.
[SPEAKER_02]: I just spotter.
[SPEAKER_11]: It's nasty down there.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, it is.
[SPEAKER_02]: Are they not the one to me?
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_11]: It of course he's get deleted.
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah, I love the idea.
[SPEAKER_09]: I said one of my favorites.
[SPEAKER_09]: I don't know what I'm saying, and what if we were promised to snake, was there's a snake?
[SPEAKER_11]: He smart enough on his video to fast forward it to, uh, yeah, yeah, this is the spot you have that I'm really interested in.
[SPEAKER_09]: So he's under a tarp.
[SPEAKER_11]: Jason Arnold is the guy's name.
[SPEAKER_11]: By the way, this is one of those examples, Joshua.
[SPEAKER_11]: I had no idea it was gonna do this, like this 15 seconds ago, like what we want on the air.
[SPEAKER_08]: Come on!
[SPEAKER_08]: I found the video by certain German tourists.
[SPEAKER_11]: This is the most recent one that popped on my feet over the weekend.
[SPEAKER_11]: But when you saw this, should you like, here we go.
[SPEAKER_11]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_02]: We found a mumba.
[SPEAKER_11]: Send a mumba.
[SPEAKER_11]: Fannie Bambi.
[SPEAKER_11]: Fannie Bambi.
[SPEAKER_02]: a little BB only one of them anyway you can really get up from this towards me as if we were around them at the back as close up TV oh wow so you can put a crowbar under that tarp oh no, it's a little grabber thing oh it is a grabber, yeah you're right
[SPEAKER_11]: Somebody's him.
[SPEAKER_11]: I wonder what his business insurance costs.
[SPEAKER_09]: I was gonna say I bet those Germans had to sign a release form.
[SPEAKER_11]: That's funny.
[SPEAKER_11]: There it is.
[SPEAKER_11]: Look at him.
[SPEAKER_11]: That's he's got a lethal snake he's got.
[SPEAKER_11]: And he reaches right down to the head.
[SPEAKER_11]: Look at the head.
[SPEAKER_11]: Look at the mouth open.
[SPEAKER_11]: There we go.
[SPEAKER_02]: That's amazing.
[SPEAKER_02]: All right.
[SPEAKER_02]: That's enough.
[SPEAKER_11]: That's fine.
[SPEAKER_11]: There he is.
[SPEAKER_11]: He gets the man.
[SPEAKER_11]: That's terrific.
[SPEAKER_11]: I won't sleep for three days.
[SPEAKER_11]: That's my weird algorithm.
[SPEAKER_11]: You know, last week I was chastised by both of you guys for my bare knuckle fighting.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_09]: I won't call the snake thing a kink.
[SPEAKER_09]: It's just that algorithm.
[SPEAKER_09]: But I'm curious.
[SPEAKER_09]: When you saw that, how fast did you go to his other videos and how long did you stay with him?
[SPEAKER_11]: No, I've been watching.
[SPEAKER_11]: He's popped on my, I love, you know, you snakes are my thing.
[SPEAKER_11]: I fed Jake this weekend.
[SPEAKER_11]: I like snakes.
[SPEAKER_11]: So, uh, I'm checking yet.
[SPEAKER_09]: I know he's getting bigger.
[SPEAKER_11]: No, but this was.
[SPEAKER_11]: As far as a medium rat, this was the fastest dispatching of a rodent that I have seen Jacob accomplish.
[SPEAKER_11]: He was hungry.
[SPEAKER_11]: And I mean, it was bad.
[SPEAKER_09]: We've had a lot of great years together, Mike, when I still have not forgiven you for having me feed your rat.
[SPEAKER_09]: I was fun wasn't it?
[SPEAKER_11]: No, it was traumatizing and evil and it was just look all I'm trying to do and all I've tried to do Most of our relationship is tough in you up and and you know, I didn't mean to traumatize you I really really didn't it was it's the circle of life as I explained to your rabbit
[SPEAKER_09]: That's the circle of life, the great circle of life, and just a few minutes after that poor little mouse at that point scratching inside of the cardboard box with the air holes in the car and using don't let him out.
[SPEAKER_09]: I don't want a mouse in my car and I'm exactly.
[SPEAKER_09]: Yes, and you're like, come here, put that box, just put the mouse into the aquarium.
[SPEAKER_09]: Because it was, oh, it was just horrible.
[SPEAKER_09]: No one needs that.
[SPEAKER_09]: Have you just, no circle of life?
[SPEAKER_08]: Have you thought about letting Jake loose and making your own snake hunting video?
[SPEAKER_08]: Uh, sure.
[SPEAKER_08]: Why not?
[SPEAKER_11]: I'll get right on that.
[SPEAKER_09]: Well, he didn't get him a black momma mask, so he looks like.
[SPEAKER_11]: I'll do that right away.
[SPEAKER_09]: This particular snake is dangerous that it might pee on you.
[SPEAKER_11]: See me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me, see me
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, yeah, my nose, what I like.
[SPEAKER_11]: I was I took a very long flight to from Copenhagen to Greenland in the middle of the winter.
[SPEAKER_11]: Well, I think it was winter.
[SPEAKER_11]: It's nice all the time out there, but fascinating little flight that you know where you're going to the Arctic Circle is saying.
[SPEAKER_11]: Right.
[SPEAKER_11]: Very, very cool.
[SPEAKER_11]: Very, very neat.
[SPEAKER_09]: And was it a jet or a smaller plane?
[SPEAKER_11]: It was a big, big ass jet.
[SPEAKER_11]: It was a, I think, a three by two by three.
[SPEAKER_11]: So it was not a small plane, not a small plane at all.
[SPEAKER_11]: And really, just interesting flying into that part of the world.
[SPEAKER_09]: I actually thought of you yesterday because of your flying phobia.
[SPEAKER_09]: And I think you've gotten better about being a phobia.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, yeah.
[SPEAKER_09]: But when we started together, you were, we were both not great at it.
[SPEAKER_09]: And last night on Turner Classic movies, they ran, or I had captured the movie, The High and the Mighty.
[SPEAKER_09]: which is like the first all-star airplane disaster film was called the high I've never heard of it.
[SPEAKER_09]: It was out of print for millions of years because John Wayne's estate wouldn't release it but the plot is John Wayne is older and he's a copilot and no one can understand why he's not a pilot and it's revealed through a series of flashbacks that he was a pilot but was involved in a plane crash not his fault that killed his daughter and his wife or his son and his wife.
[SPEAKER_09]: So he's got mental issues and they've got the ultimate drop plane that's what it is Mike, but they're flying from Hawaii to San Francisco.
[SPEAKER_09]: Oh, I don't know.
[SPEAKER_09]: Four drop plane because it's like 1954.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, my mom and dad went on their honeymoon to Bermuda on a prop plane.
[SPEAKER_11]: And I was an old stop.
[SPEAKER_09]: Now, by the way, that's not that far off the coast, but it was kind of cool that they flew on that kind of silver American Airlines prop plane, which this is you would like this movie because I think it's pretty accurate with the interior of the plane and you know there's a lot everybody has a story and this is the movie that be got zero hour, which be got airplane and airport and airport 77 and all that stuff, but all the elements are in place.
[SPEAKER_11]: I am old enough to have seen uh... airport the original the dean martin one the dean martin one nineteen seventy five great i would be what birthday was it you do the math those fifteen fifty nine sit was sixteen
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah, if you're 75, 1975 did you say?
[SPEAKER_11]: Maybe it was earlier.
[SPEAKER_11]: I'd have to find out when the original airport was probably early because I seem to remember I was younger.
[SPEAKER_11]: Maybe 14 or 15.
[SPEAKER_11]: I'm not sure, but all I know is Paul Richards, who was in 1970.
[SPEAKER_09]: That's the U.S. Or 11.
[SPEAKER_11]: Okay, so 11 would be much more.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, that's what I remember and when Dean Martin is running down the aisle of the plane after he successfully lands the plane in the disaster movie Paul Richards who had just a little bit of a speech impediment said, I want here.
[SPEAKER_11]: Well,
[SPEAKER_11]: which was as funny.
[SPEAKER_11]: I've been listening to your family for years because I mean he's 11 and he's dropping that line and kids do that by the way, for those of you that are childless out there, I have to say that's what kids do.
[SPEAKER_11]: They'll lay one of those on you, and then come, and especially the younger they are, the more exciting it is when they will say something crazy, because it's just they fire it right out there.
[SPEAKER_11]: Now, I want to transition here because, um,
[SPEAKER_11]: My son, this, this was no pushing whatsoever.
[SPEAKER_11]: I really have to reiterate that.
[SPEAKER_09]: If I push, he fell off the cliff as on his own.
[SPEAKER_11]: Sports are what I probably would be a stage dad.
[SPEAKER_11]: Okay, but I don't even push with that.
[SPEAKER_11]: It's like what he likes to do and I like the fact that he's into it.
[SPEAKER_11]: And that's cool.
[SPEAKER_11]: I like that he plays golf, but I'm not pushing him.
[SPEAKER_11]: I think he's gonna be on his golf team, but that's how much I push.
[SPEAKER_09]: We can find out, he tried out like over a week ago.
[SPEAKER_11]: No, they got rained out.
[SPEAKER_11]: The triodes got rained out.
[SPEAKER_11]: So I'm not sure what the.
[SPEAKER_11]: I'm not true.
[SPEAKER_11]: What the deal is.
[SPEAKER_11]: So he is taking a course called Cougar vision, which is their mascot.
[SPEAKER_11]: And it is a their mascot is the Cougar is the Cougar.
[SPEAKER_09]: It's an older woman.
[SPEAKER_11]: It's a woman who's about 50.
[SPEAKER_09]: And she likes the students.
[SPEAKER_09]: I know that.
[SPEAKER_11]: So she likes the seniors.
[SPEAKER_08]: I love them.
[SPEAKER_08]: As you come up to the office.
[SPEAKER_08]: Florida schools have two mascots.
[SPEAKER_08]: It's either something from the water or a cat or a cat.
[SPEAKER_08]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_11]: All of them.
[SPEAKER_11]: And you know, a lot of the schools have a TV production class.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_11]: And he's been in this.
[SPEAKER_11]: I think he's in this second year.
[SPEAKER_11]: And they tapped him.
[SPEAKER_11]: at as a seventh grader to be the play by play broadcasts are from varsity football.
[SPEAKER_11]: And so Friday night I turned on the the internet broadcast and watched my son do play by play.
[SPEAKER_11]: for the very first time of a football game.
[SPEAKER_11]: He's done a lacrosse game.
[SPEAKER_11]: I don't know anything about lacrosse, but I was just blown away that he did such a good job.
[SPEAKER_11]: I don't know why you were.
[SPEAKER_09]: But lacrosse is a harder sport to call, I would imagine, because I've done some PA for lacrosse.
[SPEAKER_09]: And it's constant action.
[SPEAKER_09]: I mean, there's no like stop now.
[SPEAKER_09]: If you have a decent spotter, football is almost mathematical.
[SPEAKER_11]: thing has a spotter and then it's tough.
[SPEAKER_11]: Well, he would, they were doing a lot of Brock's got the ball, Brock, and I'm like, you got to give the full names.
[SPEAKER_11]: Right.
[SPEAKER_11]: You got to memorize the players, especially, you know, you can do it in order of the the guys that get most of the touches.
[SPEAKER_11]: Right.
[SPEAKER_11]: You know, at first, but at a certain point, you want to identify the names, and they were, it was Michael, his buddy Evan, who's also a seventh grader, and then the young lady, oh, I wish I remember her name.
[SPEAKER_11]: She's a senior.
[SPEAKER_11]: She's been a senior in high school.
[SPEAKER_11]: So the good thing about my kids.
[SPEAKER_09]: She's going for you.
[SPEAKER_09]: They go to What is he studying?
[SPEAKER_11]: I mean she really should be in the secretarial pool by the time she's a senior They go through they go through all the that's raw send the letters to Rob's be way hi ladies good morning
[SPEAKER_11]: B.C.
[SPEAKER_11]: Travis says this is completely a non-secretive here.
[SPEAKER_11]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_11]: I heard a story from a woman who cleaned hotel rooms in Vegas and she cleaned Dean Martin's room.
[SPEAKER_11]: She said there were only Tuxedo's pajamas and pills.
[SPEAKER_09]: That's nice.
[SPEAKER_11]: Thanks for sharing.
[SPEAKER_11]: not relevant to this discussion, but it's interesting.
[SPEAKER_09]: The best Dean Martin moment in Airport is at the end when he realizes he's going to stay with the woman he knocked up.
[SPEAKER_09]: And he says, let's go on back into my place and get some eggs.
[SPEAKER_11]: And by the way, Reese says, is it me or does it look like Mike has new teeth?
[SPEAKER_11]: That's what I was at the dentist last week.
[SPEAKER_11]: I got new bonding right here.
[SPEAKER_11]: Oh, nice.
[SPEAKER_11]: That's my new bonding on these two.
[SPEAKER_11]: Nice and tight.
[SPEAKER_11]: A little more even and a little brighter.
[SPEAKER_11]: There you go.
[SPEAKER_11]: I feel like I'm...
[SPEAKER_11]: Anyway, the thing about the broadcast was I couldn't believe that he was the one that was doing what I wanted to happen, which is when you're watching any kind of broadcast, you want to have the
[SPEAKER_11]: You want to have the names, the time that's left, because they do a one shot of the field, and the one shot of the field is just completely, they don't show you the running time, they don't show replays, and they don't show the scoreboard.
[SPEAKER_09]: Does he know Sam Hofstrick?
[SPEAKER_09]: What's that?
[SPEAKER_09]: okay now this is this is actually very very smart Sam in the Redskins travel kit there was an egg timer and on the egg timer was a piece of tape that said Sam because it was Sam's egg timer was a two-minute timer and one of Sam's jobs in the booth Sam Huff who was a all-of-famer and did play by play for the Redskins back then he would turn the egg timer and when it ran out he would give how much time was left in the score.
[SPEAKER_09]: That way they'd never go more than two minutes without doing that reset for the people listening.
[SPEAKER_11]: Really?
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_11]: That's great.
[SPEAKER_11]: I mean, that's the way it should be.
[SPEAKER_11]: I mean, when you're especially when you're doing radio, you want to make sure that people know exactly what's going on.
[SPEAKER_11]: I mean, that's the bottom line.
[SPEAKER_11]: So I mean, when you do that.
[SPEAKER_09]: But oh, you're like an hourglass.
[SPEAKER_09]: You want something that's two minutes.
[SPEAKER_11]: you want to two minutes, you do not want to do it the other way.
[SPEAKER_09]: But I was proud of him.
[SPEAKER_09]: It shouldn't be that so.
[SPEAKER_09]: I don't know.
[SPEAKER_11]: Am I, am I, do I want him to get into this business?
[SPEAKER_11]: Not in any way, shape or form?
[SPEAKER_11]: I don't like the business of show.
[SPEAKER_11]: And that's kind of a version of it.
[SPEAKER_11]: But I mean, it's certainly an honorable profession to be.
[SPEAKER_11]: Football has a good purchase.
[SPEAKER_09]: It hasn't been purchased by I Heart Radio yet.
[SPEAKER_09]: It's still a business.
[SPEAKER_09]: No, there's still plenty of money in it.
[SPEAKER_09]: Yep.
[SPEAKER_08]: That's exactly right.
[SPEAKER_08]: Did you, uh, do you have some post game notes for him?
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, I did.
[SPEAKER_11]: I did, uh, the notes were full names, the notes were constant, uh, uh, re, uh, re mentioning of the amount of time that's left in the game because we can't see the, uh, running time.
[SPEAKER_11]: Now the tea, I don't do, you know, I don't teach the course.
[SPEAKER_11]: I wish.
[SPEAKER_11]: Obviously that there were it was a closer telecast to a real broadcast, but they've got one camera that goes back and forth.
[SPEAKER_09]: Is it still being taught by Jim Nance?
[SPEAKER_11]: No, I forgot the name of the guys.
[SPEAKER_11]: Cool guys.
[SPEAKER_11]: Oh, that's good.
[SPEAKER_11]: It does this.
[SPEAKER_11]: But at one point, one of the players on Michael's home team got injured, and they were talking about it.
[SPEAKER_11]: And doing a pretty good job of the analysis, and the camera paned over, said, oh, we're going to see the kids see how he's doing if he's recovering, and they showed a picture of the cheerleaders.
[SPEAKER_11]: which was, uh, rating what I want to see.
[SPEAKER_08]: No, it's probably, uh, let's not show an injury on the, uh, I don't think they're that sophisticated.
[SPEAKER_11]: What I would have done eventually they did pan over to the kid who was laid out and then King came back into the game, which I'm sure they're directors 15 or 16.
[SPEAKER_09]: All he wants to do is film the cheerleaders.
[SPEAKER_11]: You know, it's interesting because we have a guy in the chat group that's from Norway, good afternoon boys from Norway, and I was watching that flight from Copenhagen to Greenland, and they had Norwegian Airlines on the ground there.
[SPEAKER_11]: So Norway, how do you do?
[SPEAKER_11]: I'd love to go to that part of the world.
[SPEAKER_09]: What is the reputation of Norwegian Airlines?
[SPEAKER_09]: Seems like those European-based flight companies, they always, they do it best.
[SPEAKER_09]: Well, they do everything best.
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_11]: Well, they do, they do their countries best.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_11]: I mean, they live.
[SPEAKER_11]: They have a better quality of life than we do in the United States.
[SPEAKER_09]: Now, right?
[SPEAKER_09]: I don't know how their leadership is, but I think we're doing pretty good.
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_09]: Did they have a little F1 race?
[SPEAKER_09]: I don't think so.
[SPEAKER_09]: By the way, another full week, the streets are shut down for cleanup.
[SPEAKER_09]: Add a boy, Washington, DC, with your stupid freedom to 50, just shut the whole city down.
[SPEAKER_09]: It was great.
[SPEAKER_09]: Did you go?
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, I came in third, Mike.
[SPEAKER_09]: what did you see on your local news about it um you know it was on fox had the actual broadcast but all i see today in the recap is the cleanup they announced the winner but they didn't have a lot of clips but they're talking about the cleanup they didn't have a lot of clips that you saw
[SPEAKER_08]: Well, no, I mean, I watched you turn on the morning local news, which is all about traffic and weather.
[SPEAKER_08]: Right.
[SPEAKER_08]: So of course, there's what he watched.
[SPEAKER_11]: And I watched his turn at classic movies.
[SPEAKER_11]: There was, you didn't probably, do you turn off the, or do you mute the sports when it comes on?
[SPEAKER_11]: Is that when you, yeah, you like to like the evening news or local evening news.
[SPEAKER_09]: Sometimes sometimes.
[SPEAKER_09]: But not a lot.
[SPEAKER_09]: Right.
[SPEAKER_09]: No.
[SPEAKER_09]: No.
[SPEAKER_09]: Okay, too busy.
[SPEAKER_09]: Too busy doing what?
[SPEAKER_09]: Making me a better person.
[SPEAKER_11]: I have to dive right into this because I know based on what you said to me at the beginning of the show that you are busy now, because ladies and gentlemen, I'm here to mention that the captain of original ideas, the man that thinks out of the box.
[SPEAKER_11]: No, he doesn't.
[SPEAKER_11]: He copies other people.
[SPEAKER_11]: Rob Spuak is now Uber driving like Josh's.
[SPEAKER_09]: Now you see Josh when he said it, he said this is something Rob would love and that got me to the people and I'm thinking of the house, there's no way I'm gonna like this.
[SPEAKER_09]: This is horrible.
[SPEAKER_09]: I mean strangers and all the things and so yesterday afternoon I have to my car at 3 o'clock.
[SPEAKER_09]: And the app is pretty easy.
[SPEAKER_11]: Can we start with the process of what it entails?
[SPEAKER_11]: Sure, because I don't know anything about that.
[SPEAKER_11]: I don't think we asked Josh about that either.
[SPEAKER_11]: What you have to fill out a form.
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_11]: And it's how extensive is the vetting process.
[SPEAKER_09]: There is some vetting and some paperwork, but I was surprised how little there was.
[SPEAKER_09]: You give them proof of insurance.
[SPEAKER_09]: You give them proof of ownership of the car.
[SPEAKER_09]: You send them your license plate, photograph of your driver's license, and you feel a test.
[SPEAKER_09]: Annablon test, but they need a court.
[SPEAKER_09]: Hold on, hold on.
[SPEAKER_09]: Really a blood test?
[SPEAKER_09]: No, no blood.
[SPEAKER_09]: I don't know.
[SPEAKER_09]: I mean, do they do they check your driving record?
[SPEAKER_08]: They do.
[SPEAKER_08]: They do a background check.
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah, and they check for me because I said I will likely drive in Maryland.
[SPEAKER_11]: I'm not getting into this over because this driver has syphilis.
[SPEAKER_09]: That's what my life for the plate says.
[SPEAKER_09]: As YPH LLS, but they sent all that stuff.
[SPEAKER_09]: They did a background check for me in DC, Maryland, and Virginia so I can drive in all three cities.
[SPEAKER_09]: And then they make sure your car is a safety inspection.
[SPEAKER_09]: It's a matter of time.
[SPEAKER_09]: That's what you mean.
[SPEAKER_09]: Yes, I did mean states like this.
[SPEAKER_09]: OK.
[SPEAKER_09]: I did have to hold off a little bit on doing it because there was a recall.
[SPEAKER_11]: Where do you drive my drive in this city of Maryland?
[SPEAKER_11]: It's a beautiful city.
[SPEAKER_11]: It's a beautiful city.
[SPEAKER_09]: I had a safety recall on my car that was the driver's airbag, which is pretty not a big deal, but until they repaired that recall, they wouldn't give it me my license.
[SPEAKER_03]: Carry, we're ready to go!
[SPEAKER_09]: If only.
[SPEAKER_09]: but so we're all set I got I got a tank of gas and I made sure all my fluids and everything were great and I'm off and I get to pick up my first and they're pretty they actually turn everything around pretty fast there's like a little online class on safety and all that stuff that you just click agree
[SPEAKER_09]: And I got, I got out there and you've got a lot of attention to it.
[SPEAKER_09]: Mike, my life is based on safety.
[SPEAKER_09]: I mean, right.
[SPEAKER_11]: Just kind of poo-pooed it the way you were talking about it.
[SPEAKER_11]: Well, you think like, say this one thing.
[SPEAKER_11]: You just really have something.
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah, I mean, you're driving.
[SPEAKER_09]: I mean, I've been doing it for a few years.
[SPEAKER_09]: I can get by.
[SPEAKER_09]: I know all about the city of Maryland.
[SPEAKER_09]: I know everything.
[SPEAKER_09]: So I go in.
[SPEAKER_11]: I'd like to go from, I'd like to go from Leesburg to Sterling, Virginia, please.
[SPEAKER_09]: All right.
[SPEAKER_09]: That'll be a, be about an hour and 45 minutes.
[SPEAKER_11]: We made jokes for years, Josh, about Rob's speed of driving.
[SPEAKER_11]: Which really I've written with Rob in the last couple of years, and it's not that slow.
[SPEAKER_09]: It's really not.
[SPEAKER_09]: Thank you.
[SPEAKER_09]: The I pick up my first fair, I guess that's what you call it, my first client, I don't know.
[SPEAKER_09]: It took a little while to get it and then I started thinking, and Josh, I didn't bother you.
[SPEAKER_09]: But I'm thinking, is it smart as to just stay where you are and wait for a possible, they call it a match to pop up for your driving or should you drive around a little bit because your matches are based geographically of where you are?
[SPEAKER_09]: So what do you do when you when you do it?
[SPEAKER_09]: I've done both.
[SPEAKER_08]: So I will pick someone up first thing and then I will
[SPEAKER_08]: Well, I tried to do it in busy times like at night.
[SPEAKER_08]: So then it ends up sending me a match before I even drop one off.
[SPEAKER_08]: Oh, that's great.
[SPEAKER_09]: So every now and then.
[SPEAKER_11]: They'll see it's rolling today.
[SPEAKER_11]: He said, did they remind you, Rob, not to roll the car.
[SPEAKER_09]: They said, I will not roll the car over.
[SPEAKER_09]: And I clicked, I agree.
[SPEAKER_09]: Right.
[SPEAKER_09]: That was passengers.
[SPEAKER_09]: Not with passengers.
[SPEAKER_09]: So you get more dry.
[SPEAKER_09]: Do you get more fairs if you drive around?
[SPEAKER_09]: Well, I think it opens it up because if you stay in one minute, I'm not asking if you think do that.
[SPEAKER_08]: Well, in the comments where you're, it depends where you're at.
[SPEAKER_08]: If he's trying to pick people up from Costco, there's not as many people that need an Uber out of Costco, but if you go over near dollars, lots of people need to see.
[SPEAKER_09]: See, that's my plan this afternoon is to go into the, uh, one of the waiting lots of dollars.
[SPEAKER_11]: Because they go yesterday.
[SPEAKER_09]: Well, the first one took me from Leesburg, across 15, I believe the neighborhood is called Edwards Ferry, and I got in with this guy, and he comes in, and he says he's in here, I think his name was like Eric or something.
[SPEAKER_09]: And he said, Eric, you've picked up Eric.
[SPEAKER_09]: I said, great, and it says, start Uber X. I said, this is so cool, because it gave me a map to get to him.
[SPEAKER_09]: And now he's in, it knows he's in there, because you're going to Uber X.
[SPEAKER_11]: Oh, mm-hmm.
[UNKNOWN]: Oh, come.
[SPEAKER_09]: Because my car is a large passenger vehicle, and it is spotless.
[SPEAKER_11]: OK, all right.
[SPEAKER_11]: OK.
[SPEAKER_09]: It looks, you'd be shocked for the age of my car how good it looks.
[SPEAKER_11]: Well, no, I mean, but I didn't know it was, I thought like you had to have a big S UV.
[SPEAKER_09]: No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
[SPEAKER_09]: But I keep hitting this, start UberX, start UberX, start UberX, and it doesn't, it doesn't start.
[SPEAKER_08]: Can I say, oh, give me the button you have to swipe?
[SPEAKER_09]: Can I just, don't read it ahead, Josh.
[SPEAKER_11]: It's got a icon.
[SPEAKER_11]: Before the chat group starts, can I just say 136?
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah, that's exactly right, Mike.
[SPEAKER_09]: And so I go, I hit the button, hit the button, hit the button, nothing.
[SPEAKER_09]: And now I've driven like about,
[SPEAKER_09]: a quarter mile outside of his neighborhood I'm getting close to a major artery and I was very first fair first fair and you don't know where you don't know and I said and I turned to him currently I said no it's just says pause and I said so where are you headed and he said I think it was the Lee's burger Ashburn Town Center I said well I know where that is I'll just take you there because I can't figure this up and that means you're not going to get paid exactly
[SPEAKER_09]: So, I drove in there, dumb, are you?
[SPEAKER_11]: My God, really?
[SPEAKER_08]: You're doing it for free.
[SPEAKER_08]: I would also be creeped out as the passenger.
[SPEAKER_08]: To be like, it's not just turn on my Uber, a half-worstest guy taking me.
[SPEAKER_09]: I got him there in no time at all.
[SPEAKER_11]: That doesn't matter, you're supposed to do the, the, the whole point of the day that I did have to, I had to cancel it.
[SPEAKER_09]: I was out $8.90 that will hurt.
[SPEAKER_09]: And then I went in the end.
[SPEAKER_08]: Uber X button.
[SPEAKER_08]: It's this long black button with two arrows on the end.
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_09]: It is a slide function, it turns out, not to put the button button, you just slide it.
[SPEAKER_09]: And once I figured that out, I was off to the races.
[SPEAKER_09]: So I did screw up my first fair, and I will always know that.
[SPEAKER_09]: But they got better after that.
[SPEAKER_09]: Met a guy who was shooting video for Amazon, and he was had to go from, he went from Leesburg into Arlington, then picked up an Arlington fair.
[SPEAKER_11]: He was shooting video for Amazon.
[SPEAKER_09]: They like a promotional commercial that Amazon was doing about the restoration of the Potomac River.
[SPEAKER_09]: So he was he had to leave his Arlington home and come out to laden County to the Amazon bunch of equipment.
[SPEAKER_09]: He did and says do you have room for all this?
[SPEAKER_09]: I said look at this trunk and he said that's a big trunk.
[SPEAKER_11]: You didn't say that
[SPEAKER_09]: I did.
[SPEAKER_09]: I said, look at this trunk and then he said, this is great.
[SPEAKER_09]: Do you want to brownie?
[SPEAKER_09]: I said no thanks.
[SPEAKER_09]: I didn't know what that indicated.
[SPEAKER_11]: Oh, a pot brownie.
[SPEAKER_09]: That's what I was thinking.
[SPEAKER_09]: But I do have and then the app went a little wonky when I was in the district.
[SPEAKER_09]: So what bothered me?
[SPEAKER_11]: What does that mean?
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_11]: It said, what does that mean a technical guru?
[SPEAKER_11]: What does that mean?
[SPEAKER_09]: You can't go online.
[SPEAKER_09]: It said, and you can't go online, call your, uh, called the service or call it out.
[SPEAKER_08]: I wonder if DC has like a different restrictions for Uber drivers or something.
[SPEAKER_09]: So I had a nice 15 minute call with Uber and they reset my account and it should be okay.
[SPEAKER_09]: But the problem with that is by the time it's 15 minutes, I'm out of DC.
[SPEAKER_09]: I was hoping to pick up a DC fair back out towards where I live, so you make money for the drive back.
[SPEAKER_09]: But I missed out on that.
[SPEAKER_09]: So my total, well, I'll give you the total of a second.
[SPEAKER_09]: I do have some thoughts.
[SPEAKER_09]: If you are ubering, and then really this is for anybody, please make it easier to see the numbers of your address on your house.
[SPEAKER_09]: Just little reflective numbers on your mailbox isn't good enough.
[SPEAKER_09]: I want to see numbers on the house that I can read that.
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah, and I mean, that's good.
[SPEAKER_09]: You know what?
[SPEAKER_09]: What if a fireman had to come to your house or do you have a fire?
[SPEAKER_11]: You have a computer program
[SPEAKER_11]: you know, to you to the driveway.
[SPEAKER_09]: You know, not if you go into a neighborhood that's got like a court yard with six houses all in a row, you don't know which one.
[SPEAKER_08]: And I'll tell you my tip.
[SPEAKER_08]: You go to where the line ends on the little Uber map.
[SPEAKER_08]: Right.
[SPEAKER_08]: And then I put on my flashers.
[SPEAKER_08]: Oh, that's a good idea.
[SPEAKER_08]: And then that way, they just know when they come out, they see the cars, the flashers, check the license plate and come in.
[SPEAKER_11]: I like how many, how many total fares have you had, Mr. Seroka?
[SPEAKER_11]: Oh, I've done it, I've probably done it five or six nights.
[SPEAKER_11]: Okay, and total fairs roughly give me a rough estimate of how many rides you've, how many fairs you've had.
[SPEAKER_08]: Oh, that's, I might be up to 56, right now.
[SPEAKER_08]: Okay, all right.
[SPEAKER_09]: And you bonus if you hit a certain number, don't you?
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, certain where I am, and the good news is with the pay structure of Uber now.
[SPEAKER_11]: You've made $11.57.
[SPEAKER_08]: to return in my home 25 to 30 dollars an hour every night.
[SPEAKER_09]: It's funny that we would match up.
[SPEAKER_09]: I was out for a little more than four hours and one hundred and three dollars.
[SPEAKER_09]: That's where you test where it's getting in the car.
[SPEAKER_09]: A hundred percent, but another here's another helpful tip for you, Uberians out there.
[SPEAKER_09]: I'm really excited that you live in the high rise apartment in Arlington and you've got all your fancy clothes on and you're going to a very exclusive restaurant on T Street Downtown.
[SPEAKER_09]: That doesn't mean you need to use one third of a bottle of cloned.
[SPEAKER_09]: Don't do it.
[SPEAKER_09]: I mean, I was out through a point where I was almost cracking the window when this guy sat at my car.
[SPEAKER_09]: Don't overdo your cloned and improve your numbers.
[SPEAKER_09]: And also, I think they're better than the alternative.
[SPEAKER_08]: I had the alternative.
[SPEAKER_08]: Oh, that is.
[SPEAKER_08]: Oh, no, you had the alternative?
[SPEAKER_08]: Yeah, yes.
[SPEAKER_08]: Be-oh.
[SPEAKER_08]: Yes, well, not on an Uber driver this weekend.
[SPEAKER_08]: I went to the movies and had the alternative so bad that I considered leaving before the movie started.
[SPEAKER_11]: Did you guys sitting next to you in the theater?
[SPEAKER_11]: The entire family next to me.
[SPEAKER_11]: I couldn't be wrong.
[SPEAKER_08]: What was it for?
[SPEAKER_08]: Was it Be-oh or Pooh?
[SPEAKER_08]: It was Be-oh.
[SPEAKER_09]: Oh, God!
[SPEAKER_09]: Is there anything sadder when you see a whole family and you know they are on clean?
[SPEAKER_09]: Because I've seen it before.
[SPEAKER_08]: Are you talking about it?
[SPEAKER_08]: It's one of those where you, it's, you think, well, they can't be smelling this.
[SPEAKER_08]: They, they've just been used to this and accepted it.
[SPEAKER_08]: No, it was so nasty.
[SPEAKER_09]: And also another thing I noticed, I had one couple that was in the, the car.
[SPEAKER_09]: And do people think that because I'm just up there driving, I can't hear you yelling at each other?
[SPEAKER_09]: Do they think there's like some sort of magical partition between us?
[SPEAKER_09]: Because they were really going out.
[SPEAKER_09]: No, you're invisible though.
[SPEAKER_08]: Yeah, you're invisible.
[SPEAKER_09]: You're the, you're the, you're the hub.
[SPEAKER_08]: Rob, you're the help.
[SPEAKER_08]: So, okay, but here's what you are.
[SPEAKER_08]: No, no, no.
[SPEAKER_08]: And this is why you just take notes.
[SPEAKER_08]: You just went off and you put notes into your phone.
[SPEAKER_08]: And this is material.
[SPEAKER_09]: This is material for the show.
[SPEAKER_09]: The conversation went a little something like this.
[SPEAKER_09]: I don't want you drinking too much tonight.
[SPEAKER_09]: and then he says, well, I'm trying to cut down and she says, well, what have you done?
[SPEAKER_09]: He says, well, tonight I'll flip a coin and if it's heads, I'll drink red and if it's tails, I'll drink white.
[SPEAKER_09]: She says, that's not funny.
[SPEAKER_09]: You're drinking too much.
[SPEAKER_09]: He says, you're complaining too much.
[SPEAKER_11]: I think I disagree that you're invisible.
[SPEAKER_11]: I think that's just stupid people.
[SPEAKER_08]: Yeah, that could be could be.
[SPEAKER_08]: Yeah, do you ever think of interjecting and saying, I'll tell you about drinking.
[SPEAKER_09]: I say, you want to know about drinking.
[SPEAKER_09]: Listen to me, I nearly killed myself, probably not.
[SPEAKER_09]: I'm drunk right now.
[SPEAKER_11]: I'm trying to think how I would handle it.
[SPEAKER_11]: I know how Josh handles it.
[SPEAKER_11]: You're your silent, the whole time.
[SPEAKER_09]: Do you find it difficult for the silent rob?
[SPEAKER_09]: Because you're a talker.
[SPEAKER_09]: If they engage me with talk, I replied.
[SPEAKER_09]: I didn't, I didn't, you know, spark anything.
[SPEAKER_09]: I might as they sit down.
[SPEAKER_09]: I'll say it's a beautiful day where we all set.
[SPEAKER_11]: And then if they take it from there, I'll keep going like the guy, what do you mean that's what that's like you're opening that's it I mean what do you say I said you know, it's a beautiful day today and then that's as they're getting in the car You don't you don't like start it like like an intro right you just say they hop in and said hello Beautiful day today.
[SPEAKER_11]: Let's go see open-ended mr. Rogers
[SPEAKER_11]: No, it's a beautiful, it's a beautiful day today, let's go Rob Airlines.
[SPEAKER_09]: I say, you know, are we all set?
[SPEAKER_09]: And if they say yes, we're off like a shot.
[SPEAKER_09]: Now, some people are ready to talk.
[SPEAKER_09]: They really are.
[SPEAKER_09]: Some are dead silent.
[SPEAKER_09]: I heard I learned a lot about a ladies' cat.
[SPEAKER_09]: And the guy, we actually, the guy that did the work for Amazon knew a lot about Adobe Auditions.
[SPEAKER_09]: We actually talked sound editing.
[SPEAKER_11]: Let me make a discussion of both of you.
[SPEAKER_11]: I give me the negatives first and then the positives.
[SPEAKER_11]: What are the negatives about it?
[SPEAKER_11]: It's a job.
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_09]: And I would say that waiting for your next fair, if it doesn't come right up, you feel like it's pointless.
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_09]: Because you're either an parking lot or you're driving around and you're just waiting to turn your door on.
[SPEAKER_11]: There's a problem factor there.
[SPEAKER_09]: But also, I did a little research last night.
[SPEAKER_09]: and stay in the region of Dallas airport because that's where you grab your bigger fairs and it's like that's like a central gathering point for people that need overs.
[SPEAKER_09]: No, makes it make great.
[SPEAKER_09]: I have not tried yet.
[SPEAKER_09]: Really?
[SPEAKER_09]: How did you figure that one out?
[SPEAKER_09]: I was thick actually, Mike talking about the amount that they pay is what I was looking at.
[SPEAKER_11]: But it's out of like, that's what you, yeah, it's the same thing dummy.
[SPEAKER_11]: That's it.
[SPEAKER_11]: That's the same.
[SPEAKER_11]: Of course.
[SPEAKER_11]: You go to the airport where you're going to get the most fairs that go the furthest distance.
[SPEAKER_11]: But how long did you have to stew on that?
[SPEAKER_11]: Oh, okay.
[SPEAKER_11]: To come up with that.
[SPEAKER_09]: Days.
[SPEAKER_09]: I had to go to the state of Washington, D.C.
[SPEAKER_09]: I think it was a city of Virginia.
[SPEAKER_11]: You say something like that.
[SPEAKER_11]: It's what you do.
[SPEAKER_11]: Would you do as far as
[SPEAKER_11]: originating at BWI, which is a good hour in ten and twenty minutes from now.
[SPEAKER_09]: If I call and it's a you know BWI is actually a little closer because I go up 70.
[SPEAKER_11]: Oh, and they have the connector now, right?
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, the connector.
[SPEAKER_11]: All right.
[SPEAKER_09]: Don't have a connector to be the one.
[SPEAKER_09]: I would absolutely do absolutely do BWI even work into flying out of BWI.
[SPEAKER_09]: It's not that out of the way.
[SPEAKER_08]: My longest, my longest drive so far was 45 minutes.
[SPEAKER_08]: to take someone.
[SPEAKER_11]: And that's like you see dollar signs when that happens, right?
[SPEAKER_08]: You do.
[SPEAKER_08]: You get a little concerned with time and stuff and am I going to get it.
[SPEAKER_08]: Find enough rides back.
[SPEAKER_08]: The ride back is the thing.
[SPEAKER_09]: No, I did get by the time that I got the app up and running.
[SPEAKER_09]: I got several offers and I grabbed two more on the way back from Arlington.
[SPEAKER_11]: Okay, if a person, if you get two people to the same thing, do you get double the money?
[SPEAKER_11]: If you have two strangers, one out drop them off, pick another up, drop them off.
[SPEAKER_08]: Okay, not the guy at the same time.
[SPEAKER_09]: All right.
[SPEAKER_09]: The couple is the only one, they were the only ones that tipped me yesterday.
[SPEAKER_09]: So maybe they do that because it's true.
[SPEAKER_08]: And some of my, yeah, my tips, they did the app, right?
[SPEAKER_08]: They tipped you in the app.
[SPEAKER_08]: Yeah, yeah.
[SPEAKER_08]: My tips have shown up like a two days later.
[SPEAKER_08]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_08]: All right.
[SPEAKER_09]: When they realize, they say, hey, you know what?
[SPEAKER_08]: he was really no it it's the next time they open up the app it says all you like to tip from your last right so those are the it's a job I yeah you summed it up Josh with that a best part of it
[SPEAKER_09]: Well, clearly for me, it was, during the downtime, although I said that was a bad thing, is driving around listening to the radio and doing stuff, I haven't had time in a car to just like drive around and listen to the radio in a long time.
[SPEAKER_09]: It was great.
[SPEAKER_09]: I mean, you're driving, you don't.
[SPEAKER_09]: And also, there's a beauty that,
[SPEAKER_09]: when you're dropping someone off in your headed somewhere, you're going to do it in his timely fashion as possible, but it's not my deadline.
[SPEAKER_09]: You know, I don't have to stare at the clock and say, oh my God, it's two minutes after five.
[SPEAKER_09]: I'm doing the best I can and I don't have any penalty.
[SPEAKER_09]: So it's really low stress as far as doing it.
[SPEAKER_09]: And Josh, do you have anything that you drive or your driver is two miles away.
[SPEAKER_11]: He will be there in one hour and thirty seven.
[SPEAKER_09]: And he will be bringing brownies.
[SPEAKER_08]: It is.
[SPEAKER_08]: No, the good part, you make your own schedule.
[SPEAKER_08]: So you just go out whenever you want.
[SPEAKER_11]: But just remember, if you want to get more fairs in you want to get a place where people are going to use Uber, you might want to try an airport.
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah, that's right.
[SPEAKER_09]: That's what I got for another good place is you could just go and park in Mike's asshole.
[SPEAKER_11]: Rob's upset and he's pretty it is pretty obvious.
[SPEAKER_09]: Well, I mean, you know, I just I going into this wide I do he I don't want it to know what you would do it again.
[SPEAKER_09]: Mike.
[SPEAKER_09]: I am prepared to say I Loved it and I will be doing it again today.
[SPEAKER_11]: Okay, all right, and gosh, for the fun.
[SPEAKER_11]: It's a job, but so it is fun.
[SPEAKER_08]: Yeah I mean, job can be fun.
[SPEAKER_08]: The the good parts are it's fun to meet all these random people
[SPEAKER_08]: Yeah, you get some people that don't want to talk.
[SPEAKER_08]: Some people that are a little shady.
[SPEAKER_11]: But okay, let's stop you right there because that and I know we're right.
[SPEAKER_11]: Don't let your shady stuff the right word, but here's I talk about Mister bad ass.
[SPEAKER_11]: I like to watch fighting and snakes and all that, but really, do you know what creeps into my mind?
[SPEAKER_11]: And I wonder if it crept into your the fear factor gets me a little bit.
[SPEAKER_11]: Like that there be somebody sketchy that would be I guess if you do it during the day, you're.
[SPEAKER_09]: Well, I mean, well, during the day is fine.
[SPEAKER_09]: If you have an Uber account, you have also been slightly vetted.
[SPEAKER_09]: So after I'm stabbed, they can find you.
[SPEAKER_08]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_08]: And it tells you on the way to go pick up the person like what their Uber score is instead.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_11]: What stats on that though?
[SPEAKER_11]: I don't think Uber drivers get there's no cash involved.
[SPEAKER_11]: So there's no theft that can happen.
[SPEAKER_09]: No, you would just have to make your writers so mad that he stabbed you.
[SPEAKER_11]: I think there isn't there can't be much because are there any rules about pack and heat like if you have a concealed carry permit I'm sure I could probably bring an AK 47 into the car with me.
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah, but it doesn't have to be glove box You need something smaller like one like my little gun that's also a lighter
[SPEAKER_09]: something tiny one Florida's just got to fit in the gun rack.
[SPEAKER_09]: That's right up front.
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah, I did not encounter anyone that gave me even pause yesterday.
[SPEAKER_09]: I thought everyone seemed fine.
[SPEAKER_08]: Yeah, and by shady, I just mean they have their headphones on before they get in the car.
[SPEAKER_08]: They want nothing to do with you.
[SPEAKER_08]: Yeah, all right.
[SPEAKER_08]: But then you can meet other people where they want to talk and it's neat to get to know people.
[SPEAKER_08]: I wish
[SPEAKER_09]: one of the guys that wanted to talk said you know that's you slide that button you don't hit it I wish you that would have saved me nine dollars.
[SPEAKER_08]: Rob I'll tell you my tip is I put the radio on and then I put an air pot in my ear so I can listen to whatever I want to and then I can just have generic music playing for the past years so I'll just knock an audience.
[SPEAKER_09]: I kept a podcast.
[SPEAKER_09]: I kept music on, but lightly through the whole time.
[SPEAKER_11]: Doug says airport to start is good if it's not busy.
[SPEAKER_11]: Best way to get airport rides is to drop off at the airport first.
[SPEAKER_11]: And make sense.
[SPEAKER_08]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_08]: Just means you get paid to go to on your way to the airport.
[SPEAKER_09]: But that's awfully specific waiting out for that fair.
[SPEAKER_09]: It's weird, Mike.
[SPEAKER_09]: It's so, when Josh talks about being on your own schedule, just think of it, you sit down, your in your car, like just nothing's different, you have your phone, and you hit that Uber button, and wait for someone who needs a ride.
[SPEAKER_09]: It's kind of nuts.
[SPEAKER_09]: And it's peaceful, and it's kind of a peaceful way to make a living.
[SPEAKER_09]: When I got back home, I mean other than an insane urge to pee, I felt great.
[SPEAKER_11]: I think that, you know, at the, you both have said it, it ends up being roughly on a good night, what 25 bucks a year.
[SPEAKER_11]: 25 to 30.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_11]: 25 to 30 bucks an hour, which is better than like working in a warehouse or something like that.
[SPEAKER_11]: So that's, that's pretty cool.
[SPEAKER_11]: You get cut up to the top of the line to get an airport ride out of the ride if you drop someone off there.
[SPEAKER_11]: If you sit at the airport waiting, you're at the bottom.
[SPEAKER_11]: I get that.
[SPEAKER_11]: That
[SPEAKER_08]: Yeah, there could be you could pull up to the airport and every 20 other Uber drivers.
[SPEAKER_11]: But you're sure it's enough to the airport, Rob, where that really wouldn't be a bad not a big deal for you, right?
[SPEAKER_09]: 18, 20 minutes to the airport.
[SPEAKER_09]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_09]: And you know what, I could probably pick up a fair on the way.
[SPEAKER_11]: Let me see, B.C.
[SPEAKER_11]: Travis says, can you pick me up from Jimmy's at about 150.
[SPEAKER_08]: Yeah, I'll be there.
[SPEAKER_08]: Well, well, you will start to get after a couple of days.
[SPEAKER_08]: You'll start to get notices in your app where people want to Get where they want to line you up to with someone's schedule.
[SPEAKER_08]: So tomorrow at 6 a.m.
[SPEAKER_08]: Pick up this guy or whatever.
[SPEAKER_09]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_09]: Do that is that because they're requesting a certain driver or just requesting a certain time certain time.
[SPEAKER_08]: I've been looking to can you request certain drivers if you have a
[SPEAKER_11]: If you have a big ass, like, really nice, excuse me, SUV, does that get you more or better fairs?
[SPEAKER_09]: You pay more.
[SPEAKER_09]: You pay more.
[SPEAKER_09]: I know that.
[SPEAKER_08]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_08]: So you probably get paid more for driving something that can hold you.
[SPEAKER_08]: Well, you said Rob said you pay more.
[SPEAKER_08]: You pay more for what?
[SPEAKER_09]: Well, if you like, put in a, if you put in Uber black, which is what a big SUV would be.
[SPEAKER_09]: Oh, yeah.
[SPEAKER_09]: The ride is higher.
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_09]: So I think it would trickle down.
[SPEAKER_09]: Everybody would get more money.
[SPEAKER_09]: I would assume so.
[SPEAKER_11]: But I mean, I wonder if you would get more fairs that way if you had a fancier.
[SPEAKER_09]: Well, I don't think most people can see the car until after they agree to be your passenger.
[SPEAKER_08]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_09]: I think the Uber X is pretty much, no, but they can put in a Uber Black, right?
[SPEAKER_08]: They can.
[SPEAKER_11]: You can put, I've done that where I put in Uber Black because I want a nice big SUV, you know, to do that.
[SPEAKER_08]: But I think Uber X is pretty much the standard now.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_11]: It is.
[SPEAKER_11]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_11]: That's fascinating.
[SPEAKER_11]: I love this.
[SPEAKER_11]: This is a good discussion.
[SPEAKER_11]: That's good.
[SPEAKER_11]: And remember, you know, be nice to your driver and don't wear too much cologne.
[SPEAKER_11]: And if you go to the movies and Josh's there for God's sake, work on the pits before you get there.
[SPEAKER_09]: You know, it might not have been the family.
[SPEAKER_09]: Maybe they got popcorn and put a lot of cumin on it.
[SPEAKER_11]: All right, we'll take the break and come back right after this with tidbits, add bread.

[SPEAKER_11]: Fed chair Kevin Worsh is headed to Washington Jackson Hole Wyoming rather.
[SPEAKER_11]: He's headed there this week as investors watch for clues about interest rates and inflation.
[SPEAKER_11]: The big question is whether the Fed
[SPEAKER_11]: will be comfortable cutting rates in September or whether persistent inflation will keep them on hold.
[SPEAKER_11]: Markets are already nervous on the president continues to push for lower rates.
[SPEAKER_09]: I like that they are they're looking for clues.
[SPEAKER_09]: I have a vision of them with like magnifying glasses.
[SPEAKER_09]: Have you found a clue?
[SPEAKER_09]: What's happening?
[SPEAKER_09]: What's happening?
[SPEAKER_09]: It's like screw by found a clue.
[SPEAKER_11]: Trump and Canada are still having a very expensive argument trade tensions between the U.S. and Canada are heating up again with new tariffs God and retaliatory measures being discussed Canadian prime minister Mark Carney mark
[SPEAKER_11]: Ladies and gentlemen, Mark Coney.
[SPEAKER_11]: He has described the relationship and extremely hostile terms.
[SPEAKER_09]: Do you know what's going to stir-rocket?
[SPEAKER_09]: It doesn't affect me now, but what have some months ago is crown royal.
[SPEAKER_09]: Is going to go through the roof?
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, because it's a Canadian booze.
[SPEAKER_09]: It is.
[SPEAKER_09]: It is.
[SPEAKER_09]: It's the best thing Canada ever did while they're planning to attack us.
[SPEAKER_11]: I like it better than the bats.
[SPEAKER_11]: I really do.
[SPEAKER_11]: Halle Berry.
[SPEAKER_11]: This is hard to believe.
[SPEAKER_11]: Oh, we're a Halle Berry fan like me.
[SPEAKER_11]: She just turned 60.
[SPEAKER_11]: What?
[SPEAKER_09]: No.
[SPEAKER_11]: No.
[SPEAKER_11]: Apparently she is decided that 60 is the new 40.
[SPEAKER_11]: Berry shared photos from her birthday celebration.
[SPEAKER_11]: She still looks absolutely amazing.
[SPEAKER_09]: 40 is the new 70.
[SPEAKER_09]: I don't know.
[SPEAKER_09]: I was told there'd be no math.
[SPEAKER_11]: 40 is the new 70 and 60 is the new 200.
[SPEAKER_09]: like a graduation.
[SPEAKER_11]: Halle Berry shared photos from a birthday celebration in Los Cabos with a fiance.
[SPEAKER_11]: She seems to have a new fiance every month, doesn't she?
[SPEAKER_11]: Her fiance, I love one syllable names, Van Hunt.
[SPEAKER_11]: Mike's brother.
[SPEAKER_11]: What's going to say?
[SPEAKER_09]: Van Hunt.
[SPEAKER_09]: You think she calls him van?
[SPEAKER_09]: Van.
[SPEAKER_09]: Van Hunt.
[SPEAKER_09]: Or maybe Mike maybe it's Vaughan.
[SPEAKER_09]: Vaughan Hunt, Vaughan or if you're in Germany, Vaughan Hunt.
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah, Vaughan Hunt was actually watching that guy get the snake.
[SPEAKER_09]: Vaughan Hunt.
[SPEAKER_09]: I love Vaughan Hunt.
[SPEAKER_09]: Who's your Uber repair?
[SPEAKER_11]: My name is Nicholas Vanhund.
[SPEAKER_11]: I need to drive to Argentina.
[SPEAKER_11]: Uh, let's see, they're dancing, voting, wine, and a very romantic private dinner.
[SPEAKER_11]: And I was like, came from a publicist.
[SPEAKER_11]: Uh, she described the whole thing as simply magical.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_11]: You got that Von Hunt magic.
[SPEAKER_11]: Kelly Rippa is coming back to television.
[SPEAKER_11]: I don't watch it so anymore.
[SPEAKER_11]: I wouldn't watch it if I had the free time to watch it.
[SPEAKER_11]: I don't have the free time to watch it.
[SPEAKER_11]: But she's coming back to TV.
[SPEAKER_11]: She's been gone a while after a very unusual absence.
[SPEAKER_11]: Rippa is set to return to live with Kelly and Mark
[SPEAKER_11]: gum graft procedure.
[SPEAKER_11]: Oh, that sounds fantastic.
[SPEAKER_09]: I've had that.
[SPEAKER_09]: That's nothing to it.
[SPEAKER_11]: You've had gum grafts?
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah, they take a hunk of, do you copy your mouth and they graft it to the front of your gums?
[SPEAKER_09]: It's for gum recession.
[SPEAKER_09]: She should be flossing.
[SPEAKER_11]: So where do they get the, where do they get the, from the top of your mouth like the roof of your mouth?
[SPEAKER_09]: They cut out a little hunk.
[SPEAKER_11]: And it grows back obviously.
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_11]: It sounds excruciating.
[SPEAKER_09]: It was nothing to it.
[SPEAKER_11]: The surgery was so painful.
[SPEAKER_11]: How painful was it that she had a 10 day period where she wasn't supposed to speak.
[SPEAKER_11]: Must be nice.
[SPEAKER_11]: But you're saying it's the opposite.
[SPEAKER_09]: Well, I mean, unless they had to do like a massive graph, I had two hunk's replaced because I went a long time without going to the dentist and he needed to do the surgery.
[SPEAKER_09]: And he had to do the surgery.
[SPEAKER_09]: And I never flush.
[SPEAKER_09]: I do now every day and my gingerva is stunning.
[SPEAKER_09]: But back then it was bad and he did two graphs.
[SPEAKER_09]: And it was, as I recall, he did it on a Friday and like by Saturday, most things were normal.
[SPEAKER_09]: I could talk my head off.
[SPEAKER_11]: So painful.
[SPEAKER_11]: She had a 10-day period where she was in supposed to speak.
[SPEAKER_11]: She had actually put off the procedure for five years.
[SPEAKER_11]: Sounds like maybe a little more elaborate.
[SPEAKER_09]: What if when she shows up in September, she's got a huge chest?
[SPEAKER_09]: And she's a, I don't know what happened to these.
[SPEAKER_11]: I just had gumgrapes surgery.
[SPEAKER_11]: Oh, she, you know, no, that's sex.
[SPEAKER_11]: I don't care.
[SPEAKER_11]: I'm 67 years old.
[SPEAKER_11]: Do I get a freebie?
[SPEAKER_11]: That would be,
[SPEAKER_11]: I would say for Kelly?
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, right?
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_11]: I wouldn't be sad to see that.
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah, but I've had she'd fall down a lot.
[SPEAKER_09]: She's so good.
[SPEAKER_09]: Thanks for sharing, Rob.
[SPEAKER_11]: Just a thought.
[SPEAKER_11]: The baseball world has a new billion dollar owner's story.
[SPEAKER_11]: MLB has approved the three-point car.
[SPEAKER_11]: 3.9 billion-dollar sale of the San Diego Padres.
[SPEAKER_09]: Well, Mike, what's the most legendary franchise in all of sports?
[SPEAKER_09]: The Padres.
[SPEAKER_11]: Wow.
[SPEAKER_11]: It went to an investor group led by Jose Feliziano.
[SPEAKER_09]: That's great.
[SPEAKER_11]: No, it's Jose E. Feliziano.
[SPEAKER_09]: You see, Jose Feliziano.
[SPEAKER_09]: Don't be discouraged.
[SPEAKER_09]: He doesn't watch a lot of baseball.
[SPEAKER_11]: Rob is referring to back in the day, Josh, a million years ago on an old show that was also on a million years ago called the Mike Douglas show.
[SPEAKER_11]: It was an afternoon talk show and Mike Douglas had Jose Feliciano, a blind guitar player on his show and he asked this question verbatim.
[SPEAKER_11]: Do you watch much television?
[SPEAKER_11]: And immediately he went, oh, is it no, no, and it was a saved it by saying, no, I actually do sit down and I listen to television and that's why they have the stuff where they explain what's going on.
[SPEAKER_11]: Sometimes you get the audio track, ladies and gentlemen, power, what a five, WAA, listen, I hope you're going to have a fabulous Christmas with the holiday coming up just around the corner.
[SPEAKER_11]: Here's Jose, the sing for you.
[SPEAKER_11]: And now it's with the delay I always forget whether I have to be earlier or later to a perfect that time but what do I have to be earlier later to be later later later later yeah oh so they say I tried earlier let's try it again okay Josh I'm in my in my incorrect because it takes a second to get there right was I tight on that one rock hard it was absolutely right then the earlier I was earlier okay I was trying it
[SPEAKER_11]: Merry Christmas from everyone at WDRC in Hartford where your friends are.
[SPEAKER_11]: I hope Christmas is everything you want it to be.
[SPEAKER_11]: I'll be driving in an Uber and spelling B.O.
[SPEAKER_11]: Merry Christmas.
[SPEAKER_04]: Ladies, not be loud.
[SPEAKER_11]: Perfect.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, that's perfect.
[SPEAKER_09]: Let's see, uh, let's remember the WDRC PDs that start every break with Merry Christmas.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yes, very Christmas from WDRC where your fans are.
[SPEAKER_11]: So the investor group is led by Jose E. Feliciano and Quanza Jones.
[SPEAKER_11]: It's a record valuation for an MLB team.
[SPEAKER_11]: The new owners are expected to take over with the current baseball operation staff in place.
[SPEAKER_11]: They always say that's yeah.
[SPEAKER_08]: Yeah, it's a midseason.
[SPEAKER_08]: It's it's an arrest in that more than half the teams now are owned by these private equity investor groups.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, it's everything.
[SPEAKER_09]: and they they own uh... down here somebody told me they're buying all the h v a c they're uh... yeah uh... let's see now if the podries could bring three point nine i essentially four billion dollars right what would a franchise that is legendary be worth to support like i i like this
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, I mean, you're getting into air that I don't know how you make that back.
[SPEAKER_11]: You just have that money and you want to be a sports team owner, I think.
[SPEAKER_09]: I think of all the base, I think what the Yankees would be the most valuable Yankees in the core of the Dodgers.
[SPEAKER_09]: And then your red socks would have to be way up there.
[SPEAKER_08]: And I think, and the Dodgers were only sold for $2 billion, but that was a few years ago.
[SPEAKER_08]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_08]: So he knows what it would be, probably $4.
[SPEAKER_09]: I should have bought them a year ago and got them for $1 billion.
[SPEAKER_09]: It's just I didn't have the money at the time.
[SPEAKER_09]: I wasn't liquid.
[SPEAKER_11]: That's crazy.
[SPEAKER_11]: Speaking of baseball, the Cubs beat the Mariners.
[SPEAKER_11]: The reason I mentioned that, they beat Seattle 19 to two, including a nine run eighth inning.
[SPEAKER_11]: That's sad when you're on the receiving end of that.
[SPEAKER_09]: That's sad, right?
[SPEAKER_11]: Ian Hap and Pedro Ramirez both hit Grand Slams, turning what was already a blowout into a full-scale baseball crime scene.
[SPEAKER_09]: That's what an inning, one inning would two grand slams?
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_09]: That'd be great, especially for the people that went home in the seventh.
[SPEAKER_11]: It's just I've been the games like that.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, it's not fun when you're on the receiving end of that forget it Yeah, I want to die 30 to three loss.
[SPEAKER_08]: Mm-hmm.
[SPEAKER_08]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_08]: It's a you were there for a 30 to three loss.
[SPEAKER_08]: Yes Yeah, you know because it turns out a point where it's like well now I just want to see how bad this can get
[SPEAKER_11]: panel man.
[SPEAKER_11]: Finally today today is international strange music day Rob Spuad.
[SPEAKER_09]: That pleases me great.
[SPEAKER_09]: I love strange music.
[SPEAKER_11]: That is a real thing.
[SPEAKER_11]: It's basically a day devoted to music that doesn't fit neatly into a normal genre experimental weird.
[SPEAKER_11]: unexpected or just plain bizarre.
[SPEAKER_11]: It is the odd music day.
[SPEAKER_11]: Is there anything that comes to mind for you?
[SPEAKER_11]: Since you are the musicologist that would be the strangest piece that you like.
[SPEAKER_11]: The strangest piece of... Well, I've been
[SPEAKER_09]: to say I like it as a bit of a stretch, but the fact that I appreciate that they did this.
[SPEAKER_09]: There was a song sort of a chanting song that they did in the 1960s called, they're coming to take me away.
[SPEAKER_09]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_09]: About a guy that was going to actually to be committed to.
[SPEAKER_11]: They're coming to take you.
[SPEAKER_11]: We're coming to you, oh yeah.
[SPEAKER_11]: To the funny farm where life is beautiful all the time and to be a bit mad.
[SPEAKER_09]: It was by Napoleon the 14th, but here's what I love is that when they released it on the
[SPEAKER_09]: the flip side was the same song mastered backwards.
[SPEAKER_09]: So if you turn the record over, it was like playing the song backwards.
[SPEAKER_09]: That's weird.
[SPEAKER_09]: But I think it's clever for the one hit wonder.
[SPEAKER_11]: The weirdest song I think and it was the favorite song of the late George Michael was I'd put a spell on you by who's the artist that I put a spell on you.
[SPEAKER_11]: Scream and Jay Hawkins very very weird song there been a lot of weird said you have a particular yes go ahead It's funny that George would all he was George Michael was consistent about that He loved that song Later all the time Yeah, that's it for the news.
[SPEAKER_11]: We got to move on.
[SPEAKER_11]: We got more stuff coming up on the show But first I want to tell you we've got a big deal coming up folks.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yes one
[SPEAKER_11]: last show one last cruise.

[SPEAKER_11]: Sailing out of Tampa, Florida with a stop in CosML, meet and greet swag bags, tropical weather.
[SPEAKER_11]: If you play that again, I'm going to fly to Virginia and stab you in the eye with a nice pick.
[SPEAKER_09]: You know it would be worth it just to see your smiling face.
[SPEAKER_11]: Uh, get more info at www.tmospodcast.com, call 800-8147-100 and use group code 4435.
[SPEAKER_11]: Tell them you are with TMOS.

[SPEAKER_11]: Okay, book it today and lock in your price.
[SPEAKER_11]: We are, you know, I think people like to see a car wreck.
[SPEAKER_11]: So there are, there is a spike in interest in the cruise now.
[SPEAKER_11]: There's a lot of people are booking cabins.
[SPEAKER_11]: So get yours early, get them off and yes, it's safe.
[SPEAKER_09]: If you do fly to DC, Mike, I would be pleased to pick you up at the airport.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, and by the way, yeah, the last TMO as podcast, but I'm not going away totally.
[SPEAKER_11]: There'll be something in the future, so, you know, I'm not planning on just going completely to Brazil and hiding in the cave, and I don't know why I picked Brazil.
[SPEAKER_11]: Because of the whiting.
[SPEAKER_11]: The Nazis.
[SPEAKER_11]: That's for that.
[SPEAKER_09]: Well, they've sort of had a specter over today's show.
[SPEAKER_09]: Have it.
[SPEAKER_09]: Right.
[SPEAKER_11]: Someone's got to find the snakes.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yes.
[SPEAKER_11]: I'm going to South Africa to hunt the Black Mamba.
[SPEAKER_09]: Mike here is as previously mentioned, the flip side of their coming to take me away, okay?
[SPEAKER_09]: Imagine dropping a needle on this and hearing this.
[SPEAKER_09]: Do you have the real one?
[SPEAKER_11]: I believe so.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_11]: Can we hear the regular?
[SPEAKER_11]: That sounds like... That sounds like the exercises.
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah, that's why that's why it's the weirdest record.
[SPEAKER_11]: I'd love to hear it.
[SPEAKER_11]: The original though is really fun.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, I love that.
[SPEAKER_08]: When I was a kid.
[SPEAKER_09]: Did the artist really not have a second song for that flip side?
[SPEAKER_09]: I believe that was the strategy.
[SPEAKER_09]: Napoleon the 14th didn't really light up the chart.
[SPEAKER_11]: Remember this one, Rob?
[SPEAKER_11]: I...
[SPEAKER_11]: Very Paul.
[SPEAKER_09]: Oh yeah, oh god, I know all of that stuff and then he said, well, what I was saying was cranberry soft.
[SPEAKER_09]: Well, you weren't you?
[SPEAKER_11]: By the way, that's on my algorithm as well.
[SPEAKER_11]: A lot of old Beatles stuff.
[SPEAKER_11]: I think that shows up on everybody's algorithm though.
[SPEAKER_09]: You think it's because we talk about it.
[SPEAKER_09]: I mean, I know oftentimes it's not anything you want at all.
[SPEAKER_11]: Oh, I think 100% when I talk about something on the show, I end up seeing it online, which is the weirdest thing in the world.
[SPEAKER_11]: You know, that coming to take me away, not I put a spell on you.
[SPEAKER_09]: No, oh, here we go.
[SPEAKER_09]: I found it.
[SPEAKER_09]: Here we go.
[SPEAKER_09]: Alright.
[SPEAKER_09]: Have you ever heard this Josh?
[SPEAKER_08]: I have heard this.
[SPEAKER_03]: Remember when you're in one way and I got on my knees and beg you.
[SPEAKER_03]: I like to leave because I like the reverse here.
[SPEAKER_03]: Woo!
[SPEAKER_03]: You left me anyhow and then the days got worse and worse.
[SPEAKER_03]: And now you see I've gotten completely out of my mind.
[SPEAKER_09]: Here's the hook.
[SPEAKER_03]: They're coming to take me away, huh?
[SPEAKER_03]: They're coming to take me away, ho-ho-ho-ho-he-he-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha
[SPEAKER_11]: All right, I have to say one more baseball note and just get it out of the way that I Yesterday read sex took on the fabulous San Francisco Giants at Fenway Park I watched the whole game and one of the best things about it was the picture for the San Francisco Giants tugboat
[SPEAKER_09]: Wilkinson.
[SPEAKER_09]: You know, I remember we used to have a guy in our show named Charlie and he loved the wrestler talk about.
[SPEAKER_11]: Talk about who I went.
[SPEAKER_11]: I think with Dawn back in the day I went to the old capital center.
[SPEAKER_11]: beautiful venue may have been my only WWE experience and tugboat was, and I don't know if it was WWE, but it was my only profile.
[SPEAKER_11]: It would have been WWE back then.
[SPEAKER_11]: I'm sure it was WWE.
[SPEAKER_11]: And the only thing and I on the air and also I made a joke that my favorite wrestler was tugboat.
[SPEAKER_11]: And when you went to the
[SPEAKER_11]: They give the fans what they want, Mike.
[SPEAKER_09]: They truly do.
[SPEAKER_11]: Josh, could we either show a still or some video, although I don't only run in half there we go.
[SPEAKER_11]: There's tugboat.
[SPEAKER_11]: Oh, he seems, how shall I put this?
[SPEAKER_11]: Fix it.
[SPEAKER_11]: He's fix it.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_11]: And he came to fame in the Little League World Series where he had the exact same body.
[SPEAKER_11]: And he's been pitching, he's gone all the way.
[SPEAKER_11]: So for all the parents that watch Little League and say, you know, but this kid, you know, is good now, but he won't be in the future.
[SPEAKER_11]: I say, five, five on you.
[SPEAKER_11]: Five upon you because, look at this all the way to the majors with the San Francisco Giants.
[SPEAKER_11]: They're, look at that gut.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_11]: Look at that gut and now does he throw the fastest?
[SPEAKER_11]: No.
[SPEAKER_11]: But he throws pitches that you can't see that for some reason, like, maybe his stomachs in the way.
[SPEAKER_09]: I'm not sure if I know what the thing that's tricky is sometimes, do you think he's going to pitch?
[SPEAKER_09]: But he actually eats the ball.
[SPEAKER_11]: There's a fun picture where they put them side by side.
[SPEAKER_11]: Okay, this is the last time at the Little League World Series.
[SPEAKER_11]: And that's him now, and they actually show drama game both of them pitching side by side.
[SPEAKER_11]: And his motion has not changed since he was in a little.
[SPEAKER_11]: He's worked.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yep.
[SPEAKER_11]: But he didn't work as today because the red sign's been a pie.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yes, baby.
[SPEAKER_11]: All right.
[SPEAKER_11]: So we'll take a break.
[SPEAKER_11]: When we come back, I want to hear about what I'm told is something very, very new and exciting.

[SPEAKER_11]: So weird.
[SPEAKER_09]: I put a spell on you By the way, Rob, take you with uh, so weird because of mine and he would perform in full like
[SPEAKER_09]: Weird, like African almost like a U-Bangie type outfit with feathers and the bone through his nose and everything that was his gig.
[SPEAKER_11]: Kind of stereotypical.
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah, and he would also make his entrance out of a coffin.
[SPEAKER_09]: So, I mean, he was showed this.
[SPEAKER_11]: And the thing I remember if we can play just a little more of it.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_11]: The thing I remember about it was he had what I called a false vibrato, where he had vibrato, but it was more like he was shaking his back.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, like it was almost around, I can't stand.
[SPEAKER_03]: There it is, yeah, I know what put to me down.
[SPEAKER_08]: You ever heard of this one, though?
[SPEAKER_08]: Yeah, yeah, I think this is the movie, focus, focus, this movie.
[SPEAKER_08]: This is the only song I play in my, my Uber.
[SPEAKER_11]: Rob says right before they get out in terror.
[SPEAKER_09]: I do think if you get down deep in it He's probably got a decent voice.
[SPEAKER_11]: It's just the weird presentation and a really odd choice of song George George loved him all right now You said this uh or a farming what the f is that okay?
[SPEAKER_09]: I will first give you a definition of or a farming or a farming and this comes from the From the internet so you know it's got to be true
[SPEAKER_09]: And or a farmer is a slang term for someone who intentionally performs actions, poses, or styles themselves to look cool, charismatic, or impressive, ideally without appearing to try too hard.
[SPEAKER_09]: Give that to me one more time, I guess a lot to what is it or a farming is when someone intentionally performs actions, poses or styles themselves that are made to make themselves look cool, right?
[SPEAKER_09]: But they have to look like they're not trying.
[SPEAKER_09]: So it's like sort of accidental looking cool.
[SPEAKER_09]: It got started apparently with a viral gag and I think this is pretty funny.
[SPEAKER_09]: in school, kids were dropping a piece of paper and then people come up to them and give them the piece of paper and then you pretend they're asking you for your autograph and you sign it because they're just returning the paper but it makes it look like you're a big shot but then so you're supposed to
[SPEAKER_11]: Just start the video when they bring the paper to you.
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah, but this is the biggest thing that hit it off.
[SPEAKER_09]: It's an Indonesian kid.
[SPEAKER_09]: And this is what really sort of sparked it.
[SPEAKER_01]: Laving your role.
[SPEAKER_01]: Just turned a local tradition into a global movement.
[SPEAKER_01]: Meet Ryan Arkin Dica.
[SPEAKER_01]: The Indonesian kid who was viral.
[SPEAKER_01]: for dancing on the front of a speeding canoe like it was a runway.
[SPEAKER_01]: Rocking shades and traditional black gear, his moves were effortless and full of confidence.
[SPEAKER_01]: The internet called it or farming.
[SPEAKER_01]: And now as I travel to Kelsey with Khalifa and I show speed our copy in his style.
[SPEAKER_01]: What's wild?
[SPEAKER_01]: Ryan made it up all on the spot.
[SPEAKER_01]: No rehearsal just purebides.
[SPEAKER_01]: Since then, he has earned a scholarship, become a tourism ambassador, and captured hearts world wide.
[SPEAKER_09]: Okay, that's all well and good, but I mean it's just a guy dancing.
[SPEAKER_11]: I never fail to be astonished as to what clicks, what just captures the imagination, a little kid on the front of a boat.
[SPEAKER_11]: Do you like to see going like this?
[SPEAKER_09]: Some other examples of horrifying that this is so literally this is educational for me.
[SPEAKER_09]: This is a list from this is actually from YouTube.
[SPEAKER_09]: These are the top or a moments, but there's a million videos that are called this.
[SPEAKER_09]: Alright.
[SPEAKER_09]: Here's a guy skiing.
[SPEAKER_10]: Nice move.
[SPEAKER_10]: You mix it look easy.
[SPEAKER_09]: That's it.
[SPEAKER_09]: Oh yeah, because you look so cool doing it.
[SPEAKER_11]: Guy doesn't double flip in the air.
[SPEAKER_11]: I think he could surprise himself.
[SPEAKER_11]: I think I'm beginning to understand what it is.
[SPEAKER_08]: It's something cool.
[SPEAKER_11]: It's something cool.
[SPEAKER_11]: That's kind of cool.
[SPEAKER_11]: Look at this guy.
[SPEAKER_11]: Look at this guy, right?
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_09]: He's in a beautiful suit and he's on wheelies.
[SPEAKER_11]: So, and then you can skateboard into the water that I've never returned my hooks from uh, but I'm going to do one right now.
[SPEAKER_11]: This is going to go viral.
[SPEAKER_09]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_11]: One shot.
[SPEAKER_11]: Please, Josh.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yep.
[SPEAKER_09]: Look at him farming, Laura.
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah, look at the effortlessness.
[SPEAKER_09]: The AirPods have gotten bigger this season.
[SPEAKER_09]: These are my new AirPods.
[SPEAKER_09]: I know they look great.
[SPEAKER_09]: You put two in one here?
[SPEAKER_09]: There you go.
[SPEAKER_09]: Sorry.
[SPEAKER_09]: Sterego's better if you split them up.
[SPEAKER_08]: It makes your ears look crooked.
[SPEAKER_08]: It looks like one's higher than the other.
[SPEAKER_09]: It does, as a matter of... Maybe one is.
[SPEAKER_09]: No, no, we would have known this by now.
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_08]: We're going to.
[SPEAKER_09]: I think the one metric on my ear, one ear is there.
[SPEAKER_09]: I think that the right one is under your actual in ear piece.
[SPEAKER_09]: Yes.
[SPEAKER_09]: And if you put it on top, yeah, put that up top or a little more.
[SPEAKER_08]: Well, now I lost my ear piece.
[SPEAKER_08]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_08]: I think it walking circles if your ears were that off.
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_09]: And then here's the last example, Mike, of aura farming.
[SPEAKER_09]: This is perhaps not the best time to do it, and also, let's look at this from it hard to get these back in the container.
[SPEAKER_09]: Let's look at this from a different viewpoint than is presented.
[SPEAKER_09]: This is a, a extensively a viral video.
[SPEAKER_09]: And the topic is a guy being arrested at high school.
[SPEAKER_09]: But that's not what it's about.
[SPEAKER_00]: Just getting arrested at school.
[SPEAKER_00]: He had the worst idea ever to farm aura in front of the deputy sheriff.
[SPEAKER_00]: because when he just got handcuffed, bro thought it would be funny to show off his acrobatics skill, and he decided to slip his handcuffs to the front.
[SPEAKER_00]: But just watch how his aura grew so much that even the officer had no idea what to do in that situation.
[SPEAKER_09]: That's totally staged, you know, but he's not staged that he's double-joined it and that he's or a farm.
[SPEAKER_09]: Very weird.
[SPEAKER_09]: So if you want to do like some brief tape of yourself looking cool, but not trying, you too can be an or a farmer.
[SPEAKER_11]: There we go.
[SPEAKER_11]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_11]: Hmm, maybe Jesus.
[SPEAKER_09]: Wow, I guess he really did have Jesus.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, that'll go wild.
[SPEAKER_11]: All right, that's a, well, I get it.
[SPEAKER_11]: That was a great example of what it is.
[SPEAKER_11]: I get it and I think,
[SPEAKER_11]: It happens by accident quite often.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, where you get your forcing and not all the time, but the better ones are kind of by accident.
[SPEAKER_09]: Will, do you have any beautiful video for us today?
[SPEAKER_11]: Catch this one, Mike, I'm gonna catch this.
[SPEAKER_11]: Scads of a beautiful video coming up right here on the Mike O'Marrow Show Ladies at gentlemen.
[SPEAKER_11]: But, folks, I want to tell you about vintage.
[SPEAKER_11]: Have you ever taken a good look at your closet and realized you have clothes in there that you have not worn in years?
[SPEAKER_11]: You know the ones.
[SPEAKER_11]: Oh, I'll wear that again.
[SPEAKER_11]: Guess what?
[SPEAKER_11]: You won't dip shit.
[SPEAKER_09]: Sorry, that's not a big copy.
[SPEAKER_09]: I'm sorry.
[SPEAKER_09]: I'm sorry.
[SPEAKER_11]: No, you won't.
[SPEAKER_11]: Meanwhile, they're taking up space and potentially depriving you of money as that.
[SPEAKER_11]: That's another hour sitting on the freeway waiting for an Uber fare.
[SPEAKER_11]: Exactly.
[SPEAKER_11]: You don't want to do that as they just sit there on a hangar.
[SPEAKER_11]: That's why you need Vintage.
[SPEAKER_11]: We all need Vintage.
[SPEAKER_11]: Vintage is the second hand marketplace app that makes it easy for regular people like you and me to sell pre-loved clothes and make some extra money.
[SPEAKER_11]: Listing an item is quick and easy when something sells Vintage creates that prepaid shipping label for you.
[SPEAKER_11]: Best of all, there are no sellers fees.
[SPEAKER_11]: You actually keep every dollar you earn.
[SPEAKER_11]: Just ask Mr. Josh Soroka who uses Vintage and you love it, right?
[SPEAKER_11]: Oh, it's so easy.
[SPEAKER_11]: It is a picture and done.
[SPEAKER_11]: We call Josh the governor of Bindiana.
[SPEAKER_11]: I used them for the clothes.
[SPEAKER_09]: I didn't know how to spell that because I was going to hyphenate it and it looked like Bindiana.
[SPEAKER_09]: Is that all that's not how you do it?
[SPEAKER_11]: You know what he's doing it because he wants to become more Bindependent.
[SPEAKER_11]: That's true.
[SPEAKER_11]: With vintage cleaning out the closet doesn't feel like a chore, it feels like money!
[SPEAKER_11]: Plus, those clothes get a second life instead of sitting there gathering dust, and you get some extra closet's room as well for something you'll actually wear.
[SPEAKER_11]: So what's wrong with that?
[SPEAKER_11]: Not a thing, Bubba law?
[SPEAKER_11]: All I'm thinking about now is different bin words, you know?
[SPEAKER_11]: uh... well i mean anything it starts with any bindia well we can travel to bindia well you know we uh... we've got some storms off the coast it's that time of year and florida so it gets a little bindi out there yeah it gets been credible
[SPEAKER_11]: We're done on download the vented app for free and start a listing today.
[SPEAKER_11]: There are no sellers fees.
[SPEAKER_11]: Oh, yeah, a lot more to tell you So I keep everything you earn and for a limited time.
[SPEAKER_11]: There's free shipping in the US clean out the closet It makes a mextarmani and give your clothes a second life with binted.
[SPEAKER_11]: I'm sorry vinted vinted vinted vinted vinted Yeah, play your thing.
[SPEAKER_11]: We're ready for your okay.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I like that some beautiful video
[SPEAKER_09]: Mike, you missed some big news on Thursday's broadcast.
[SPEAKER_09]: Are you familiar with a restaurant, a little eatery, a scenery called Stacon Egg in Sepapa, Oklahoma?
[SPEAKER_09]: Not in Sepapa, Oklahoma.
[SPEAKER_09]: And you had something with Stacon Egg last week, didn't Mike, it was the man with the, the clothing hoof for a hand.
[SPEAKER_11]: And you know in what's the area of Northwest Washington, where American University is, I forgot the neighborhood, but there was a stake in egg where I've told this story on the era of malls.
[SPEAKER_11]: Sure, well times we used to go at like two, three in the morning after party in all night in DC, and we'd go to stake in egg and watch the guy that was a former Benny Hanna chef do the whole thing.
[SPEAKER_11]: Oh wow, we made breakfast and threw the things up in the air and all that cool stuff.
[SPEAKER_09]: Good afternoon, broken hand.
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah, because in Oklahoma, they don't do that.
[SPEAKER_09]: Mike, we made a discovery on Thursday.
[SPEAKER_09]: We thought there had been a medical miracle, but what happened is the video that he posted on Thursday, he had actually flipped the video and kept his right hand out of the shot almost entirely.
[SPEAKER_09]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_09]: It looks like he was heard.
[SPEAKER_09]: But this is really, this is a step here because I think he's gotten his hand redressed.
[SPEAKER_09]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_12]: Hello everyone.
[SPEAKER_12]: Tonight our special better.
[SPEAKER_12]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_12]: I need to be salmon on a better rise with side of fresh tabooly and a garlic toast only for 1899.
[SPEAKER_12]: It looks like a bracelet, like a bowler would wear.
[SPEAKER_11]: Look.
[SPEAKER_11]: What's the word I'm looking for?
[SPEAKER_11]: It's a simple concept.
[SPEAKER_11]: It's a situational awareness.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, I think we're awareness.
[SPEAKER_11]: You know, were you just have to be aware of what's going on?
[SPEAKER_08]: Come on.
[SPEAKER_08]: And they tried that with the last video with keeping it out of the frame.
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah, but they blew it still.
[SPEAKER_09]: You would have picked up faster than we did, Mike, because his watch was on his wrong arm.
[SPEAKER_09]: That's how we knew the video.
[SPEAKER_09]: Gross.
[SPEAKER_08]: There's something about a bandage and food service that
[SPEAKER_08]: If that one looks a lot better, that looks more like what you'd wear for like weak wrists or something.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_11]: And believe me.
[SPEAKER_08]: Well, I was trying to make such a matter of a way to make needed for it.
[SPEAKER_09]: I just know my wrist is so tired after months of rehearsal.
[SPEAKER_09]: Mike, we lost over the weekend.
[SPEAKER_09]: Shelly Fabrey, who got her big break on the Donnery show, and for many years was the love interest on coach.
[SPEAKER_09]: Not at all, right?
[SPEAKER_09]: 82.
[SPEAKER_09]: I choose 82.
[SPEAKER_09]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_09]: She was dead at 82, but here's what she's most remembered for.
[SPEAKER_09]: And back in the day when anyone who was on a sitcom could grab a hit record, there's gonna read.
[SPEAKER_11]: Oh, Donna Reed.
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_09]: You know what?
[SPEAKER_09]: Now that we're in retrospect, Mike.
[SPEAKER_09]: Donna Reed or Shelley Fabry.
[SPEAKER_09]: Oh, Donna Reed.
[SPEAKER_09]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_11]: Oh, Donna Reed.
[SPEAKER_09]: old Donnery like if she did like a guest spot on say like fantasy island as opposed to like Madonna, you know, it's wonderful.
[SPEAKER_09]: What's the matter?
[SPEAKER_09]: You're wrong.
[SPEAKER_09]: You're just wrong today.
[SPEAKER_09]: That's wrong.
[SPEAKER_09]: Mike remember when you were bowling and you loved it.
[SPEAKER_09]: You loved it.
[SPEAKER_11]: You know why you loved it?
[SPEAKER_11]: Not a lot because I'm just not good at it
[SPEAKER_09]: Mike, you loved it, probably because of the technology that was invented by AMF, here.
[SPEAKER_09]: The AMF Mike, they invented magic score, and they wanted to get the word out about magic score.
[SPEAKER_09]: So who do you get?
[SPEAKER_09]: You get yoga.
[SPEAKER_07]: You know, it's a lot easier to add up three strikes in baseball than it is in both.
[SPEAKER_09]: Good looking guys.
[SPEAKER_07]: What's so great about AMF's new magic score.
[SPEAKER_07]: Magic score is all the rhythm.
[SPEAKER_07]: Just punch in your name at the beginning and both.
[SPEAKER_07]: The screen even tells you when it's your turn and which lane the bull on.
[SPEAKER_07]: Magic score.
[SPEAKER_07]: It makes bowling more fun for everybody.
[SPEAKER_07]: Little kids could both bite themselves.
[SPEAKER_07]: Even if they can't head.
[SPEAKER_07]: Or am I money?
[SPEAKER_07]: Magic score is the best thing that ever happened to bowling.
[SPEAKER_07]: Since the automatic pin spotted.
[SPEAKER_09]: Here you go.
[UNKNOWN]: That a boy.
