345: Breaking Down the WORST Kind of Influencers

The podcast episode features casual conversations among the hosts about personal life, travel, and pop culture. They start by discussing a baby's gymnastics class and his physical traits, noting he resembles his mother's features but has the host's lips. One host then talks about his upcoming trip to South Africa for a safari, having switched from Kenya, and shares concerns about helicopters, food poisoning, insects, and the need for safety precautions like long sleeves and bug spray. They also touch on famous South Africans like Elon Musk and Charlize Theron. The conversation shifts to Casa Bonita, a Denver restaurant purchased by South Park creators, which underwent expensive renovations and offers unique entertainment. They discuss Disney park stories, including a teen falling off a ride and secret codes for incidents like spreading ashes. Social media critiques follow, focusing on rage bait videos and the "bean soup theory" of entitled comments. One host vulnerably admits to relapsing into vaping after a long quit streak, planning to stop again soon. A dramatic Florida story about a flight instructor landing a plane under a highway sign is shared, and they end with a humorous critique of Martha Reeves' national anthem performance. The episode closes with standard podcast sign-offs and sponsor acknowledgments.

Tudy petudi. Oh my gosh. He's such a perfect blend of you too. I know. It's crazy. He had gymnastics class earlier today. Oh wait. I want to get into that. Do you think Tony Doe has more of your profile in Mariah's face or Mariah's profile in your face? I was feeling like when they're like a baby. He has my side profile. I think right now. Yeah. But I feel like it's so weird. I feel like he has all of Mariah's features. Interesting. He has Mariah's eyebrows. His eyes, eyebrows, like this whole section feels like Mariah. But he definitely got my juicy lips. You know what I mean? It's tough because I'm not like when I'm looking because he's a boy, I'm seeing more of like her family's features than her. I know what you mean. I'm seeing like her brothers a little bit more than Mariah. Have you seen that trend where it's like you put two babies next to each other? They're not usually twins, but it's like maybe they're cousins, but they're like around the same size. And then you put one of them in like boy clothes and the other in girl clothes. Yes. And then you switch it in the internet. You can't tell which one's a boy or a girl. And the internet gets so dirty when they're like that young. Yes. When they're that little. Like you put the little bow in their hair on one and the little girl you dress and then you switch it. Yeah, that's it. And then when they flip it, you're like, wait, no, that's definitely it. And then it goes back. You're like, yeah, no, I don't know. No, I'm not on baby TikTok right now. I should, I needed like a couple of videos and then I'll start seeing videos. But you took back to his first gymnastics class. Would you have a little jam or something? Yeah, it's kind of like a little kids type gymnasium spot where they do like classes. There's like an instructor. There's maybe like 15 kids in there. It's just so cute, man. Like he has no idea what's going on, but he's just looking around. He's yeah, his arm circles. Oh, it's awesome. That's great. Is he um like a like a big class or is it like a small class of other kids? I feel like normal 15 kids. It's not like a huge group or anything, but it's like you don't too many kids because you want a little attention on your kid, but like you want to keep a boost. You too. You want a little private class, a little private sex. Yeah, I mean, he's on a balance beam. He was doing his step. Tony, he's gonna be able to do like a back tuck by the time he's five. He's gonna get like one of those like the ramp kind of cushions. And you're gonna be down there just doing flit. Oh, already. So we have like the whole little like kids one with like the round foam ones and then the blocks that you could stack so you could like do the rolling over. Mariah's got him doing it all. That's good. Like if my mom could do a backflip and she didn't teach me when I was little, I'd be pissed. Yeah. I'm like, Mom, are you kidding me? Like I can barely move my back right now and you're out here doing backflip. So like it's good that Mariah is like trying it because I want my kid doing backflips. That's sick. And if you're getting spotted by your parent who knows how to do it, that trust is so strong because that's the whole thing is like when you're learning how to flip, you have to be spotted by someone who knows how to do it. Yeah. And it takes so much guts to like flip over. But if you have. Matt, did you see the video of him standing in my hand? No, I don't think so. Oh, you haven't seen it. No, and this is sorry listeners. This is on their private family account that we'll be getting access to. I think our listeners are like, wait, I missed it. That was like a month ago. And Zayn was like, how did you know he could do that? I was like, I didn't. We just kind of just try it. Went for it. Wait. And he's in his little tune squad outfit. How cute cheer, athletics. Whoa, hey, that is some, that is amazing. Isn't that so fun? Like he's so little. I can't, I can't get over it. That's something you can only do with your child. You know what? I just made that. Please don't. But like once you're so comfortable and you have all your dad instincts to catch him when they fall and you know where it's going. Yeah. That's so cool. Seeing the way Mariah is like coaching him to do these things. Like because she taught class to kids like her whole life. So it's like we have at home lessons all the time. Yeah. It's pretty, it's pretty cool. But yeah, he had his class and then just, you know, got some stuff done around here. Now we're hanging out with Chit Chatting doing the thing, painting the garage today. So, you know, just I'm on my, I'm on my move that bus type shit right now. Absolutely. That's good. Always surprising Mariah every week with it was something done. Yeah. But it's all the stuff that's in the basement in the garage. Yeah. It's like I just want the kitchen in the bathroom done. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. What do you guys have to do? Everything good? Everything good here. I leave for South Africa tomorrow. So you are going to Africa. Did plans change? Did you think you were going to Kenya? Yes. First we're going to Kenya and then we last minute switch to Joe Hannah's Berg, which is more south. Yeah. Of Africa. We're doing the same excursion. So like still safari, but we are just doing it there and said. Awesome. And first time for you in Africa, you went to Egypt. Yeah. So Egypt. It counts. It does count. Yes. But like in my head, Egypt does not like when I think of Egypt, I don't think of Africa. I think of the middle. I think of the Middle East because obviously, like I've been to Lebanon so many times. And to me, that like that whole area, to me is a different, is a different continent. Correct. Like the middle East Asia in think of Africa. Just because it's all Arabs. Yeah. And I know there's Arabs in Asia. I know there's Arabs in Africa. It just coming like someone that grew up in Lebanon. It just feels different. It's giving Middle East. Yeah. Middle East is its own continent. It's weird. I mean, it's basically right there. Yeah. But Egypt, I think, is the only part of Africa I've ever been to. If can you zoom out of them? Yeah. Yeah. Are you going to go to Cape Town and stuff? I bet you will. I'm not sure. I think a lot of what we're doing is in like kind of again in the middle of Johannesburg is that north of South Africa. I didn't realize that. I thought like Cape Town and Johannesburg were like all kind of all Western case. We fly into Johannesburg, but then we have to fly somewhere remote to do all the activities and expressions. Okay. So we're not like in the city. But we'll see. I mean, anything can change. I'm really excited. I Are you going to see Lady Smith Black Mombazo? I'm sorry. What is that? What is that in the band? What is that? You love Lady Smith back Mombazo. Yeah. Her mean girls, the mom. These are the fertility bosses of the interval. I tried. Doesn't that mean anything to you? You and Heath have an incredible memory with little small scenes and movies. It's insane. Yeah. Lady Smith Black Mombazo is in South Africa is where they got their start. There's like so many of people in Lady Smith Black Mombazo. You're saying we should definitely try to see this group. Definitely. And you should listen to Paul Simon's Grace Land, even though Paul Simon fucked over Lady Smith Black Mombazo, they did not make any money off that album. Fuck Paul Simon. I will never forget that. Hey, but I like Paul Simon. Again, I'm just hoping it goes smooth. I'm just like a little nervous about the type of travel to get food poisoning. His same thing's Hakuna means no. Matata. There's a lot of like helicopter traveling. I'm a little nervous about. I mean, it's itinerary and there's like quite a few and that kills me because I just hate flying in helicopters, but this is how you get to like certain spots that you need to get to. I'm just trying to do anything before. I know that you have to get like sometimes a malaria shot before you go to Africa looked it up and it said that you're not you don't need to. It's just kind of like if you want to do it, do it. It's strange, right? Like it's because what we're going is very it's like private more than it's more remote. It's more remote. So that's why I like I'm not too worried. The only thing that I know that all like people like have been like talking about here and there is it's called like yellow fever and you get it from skewers. I'm a little worried about that, but I'm I'm taking this like I'm going to wear long. So I'm like again, I don't want to get food poisoning. I don't want to sick sanitize my hands every. Again, again, my Keith, you know my nails. You know how I'm like now I'm painting my nails. I'm bringing that nail polish shit to prevent me touching my fingers. Oh, good on you, saying like in my fingers touching my face anything like in the moment like I start touching my face and it starts burning because of nail polish. I know that okay, put your hands down like I really just don't want to catch anything. I wonder if it's like does our bug spray work out there? Is that a dumb question? Like if you're dealing with like a different country's like you're dealing with like American mosquitoes. I guess if it's got deep, what is that? Deep? Is that like the active ingredient in bug spray? It used to be I think it was banned. Okay. Well, he looks it up in the guest, most US purchase bug sprays work effectively, which I didn't know. You're right. Yeah. 30. I think that's always on the crossword, Keith. And I never know what the hell it is. I got you. Okay. Good to know. I was looking up some like tips on like, oh, what did you before a trip out out there like on a safari, whatever. And it was saying how and I didn't know this at all. Maybe a lot of people did, but Cologne and like scented lotions and stuff is the best not to work that at all when you're out there that attracts a lot of bugs and shit. I had no idea that it tracks bugs. I think I think it's like just something that smells different. They might be attracted to it, especially with like animals. Like if you're going on a safari, I definitely would not want to have like a sense of lotion. That's something that smells sweet. Boy, them tigers going to be looking at it. But sweet. No, I didn't like I guess because blood is sweet, right? To them. Yeah. Well, you know, blood tastes like blood in a way. Like if we cut like all fuck you do that. Yeah, it tastes like it tastes like a battery acid. Yeah. But it isn't that like more of the sweet side though than assaulty. No, I think it's bitter. We should get a vampire under that. He can't really tell us the next guest. Yes, a vampire. Empire. Is there an animal you're excited to see? Like, have you, do you feel like you've seen most popular big animals or I think I've seen most popular big animals. I think one that I'd be super excited about, but little scary is like a like a hippopotamus or a rhino. Oh, right. I yeah. That would be a rhino. Yeah. Fucking rhino or like a hippo in the wild. I just don't understand. And I'm sure when we're out there, I'm sure we're going to be with guides that are very experienced. They're also going to have like weapons on them to like if anything happens or go wrong. You show up into full safari hunt. You like down. It's like a whole. I just put like potion for ivory. You're like, I did not sign up for this. I can like I picture being in the car and it's like a fucking fat like a cheetah or like is starting to sprint towards us. Like it happened. I can't imagine what my body like that would be a true test of how the fuck you're going to react when something like that happens. Of course, the guides are going to be probably so used to that. Like they'll know exactly what to do. But like, I again, I just hope everything goes well. It's going to be exciting. But also I just know I'm going to be on the edge of my seat and super in the Lion King. Where are they? They are in Africa. I know. But like where in Africa does the Lion King take place? They have to say where they are at one at some point in the movie, right? The Pride lands, which is like. Oh, thank God. We're going to South Africa. Okay. Thank God. We're not going to see no ecosystems of Kenya and Tanzania. Oh, you almost went to the Lion King. Yeah. Yeah. You're like, where's Brian Rock? Come on. I'm sure they have something there that kind of resembles this. So they just tell people, look, it's. Yeah. Pride lands. Dude, I'm excited for you to see the trees out there. That's going to be the lens. Like just the landscape and everything. That's really sick. Oh, dude, that tree gets me going. Oh, yeah. Wow. Cool. Just like classic African trees. It looks like man-made trees. Yeah. It does not look real. It's crazy. Look at the canopy on that thing. But yeah, that's what I'm doing for a week. And then I come back. And then I'll see you guys again. It's saying it's going to come back and like travel gear. He just has this different outlook, this e-Pray love mentality. No, I'm trying to. I was thinking about doing a video out there where it's I want it. I want the video to look like I went there alone. That's good. They're alone. Like I'm doing everything alone. And whenever we were with an animal, it's just me by myself. And I was going to do like a voiceover, like a like a daily at no, no, no, no. Well, I can't do an accent because I like genuinely, just don't know how to do any accent. But I'm just going to like like Nara Smith, Nara Smith, it but like male version. Okay. Out there by myself. I'm going to see if that works. Am I not worked though? It's a big shop it. I'll workshop it. Yeah. Well, Chombo. What do they wear out there in South Africa? Because I genuinely have no close to brain because I wasn't going to have banana republic. I feel like banana republics whole aesthetic is like safari sheet. Really? Yeah. Very safari sheet. Like when you go into like banana republic, it's always this like African white person kind of. I haven't been in there in so long. So like I can't remember it. But okay, I'll go. Is there a banana republic around here? Yeah. Oh, yeah. Look at he's literally on a safari. Yeah. Like all their photos are usually safari scene. You have to get one of those tan hard hats. You know what I'm talking about. It's kind of got like. Yeah. Shape to it. Matt, you know what I'm talking about the tape, but it's hard like the Hunter and Jumanji kind of a thing. Yeah. Oh, he's my head shape. Don't fit with that. That's not a good half of my head. Just just like your usual limbs. You know, I love like that one is sick. The one on the bottom of the belt around that. Yeah. That's cool. They also have the ones with the fans built into it as well. Wait, really? Yeah. Yeah. Like safari hat with fans. I have no like I leave tomorrow. Someone left one at my party. Yeah. Oh, Zayn out there. Be a cool. Oh, look at that. And it's got a little solar panel on it, dude. Never have to charge it. And the bugs just be attracted. You with the bug net full bug net would be so funny. I forget. And I swear shits on a Baccarot. Like just getting the bit the fuck up. We should run that intro. Oh my gosh. Oh my goodness. Geez, three, two, one. It's probably called baby. Oh, welcome back to say he thought filtered. I'm saying I'm he I'm Matt and I'm Jared. And that's if we get attacked. I don't think we're going to shoot any animal. Oh, you're nice. It would say in itinerary like game. Like we're gaming, right? Because it doesn't say that. I think they don't even like their weapons are probably a little more mild. Like you know, like bear spray. I fucking, like I hope it's not mild. I mean, if a cheetah's fucking coming after me, I want a rocket launcher launch out that thing. I do not want that thing alive. Cheetahs cheetahs aren't humans aren't natural predators or prey for cheetahs. They're actually very good. They say that about alligators too, but then everything is Florida. I just as long as it's not fucking attacking me, that's all. Before I continue, this episode is brought to you by Smalls.

And so does Dini Weeny. I feel like I've said this in the past. You know, the Cheetah girls are not wearing Cheetah print. I know they're wearing leopard print. Yeah, I know. Who got that wrong? Kenny Ortega. I think they filmed too much before they realized it and they're like, "Fuck, we just got to finish it." But Cheetah print, I think, does look a little better than leopard. Well, no. Leopard print looks better than Cheetah print. Or, Matt, because they filmed the movie assuming that they were going to name the movie "The Leopard Ladies." After they're like, that sounds like shit. Like, we cannot call them "The Leopard Ladies." That does not flow, right? We're going to call them the Cheetah girls. And they're like, but they're wearing leopard array. They're like, no one's going to notice that. But see, some of these Google images of Cheetah print, that's wrong. Because Cheetahs are dots. Cheetahs are dots. Oh, that's leopard is like what you think of when you think of Cheetah girl pattern. Yeah, they got it wrong. They did. Well, I mean, look, some like, look, if you look at like close, there's some spots where they do have like a ring with a different color in the middle. Yeah. But that's also, I think that's just the black fading out in the middle. They're getting old. They're called leopards because it looks like leprosy. Because you're like, leprosy, aren't you like covered in like, or did leprosy come after? The word leopard comes from the ancient Greek word leopardos. Leopardos, do you know? It's a spotted cat. Okay. Maybe I'm wrong. We need to learn Latin. A lot of these words come from a lot of our words come from Latin. Oh, yeah. Latin and Greek. Man, it all comes from that. You know what? I'm going to download Duolingo and I'm going to practice Latin. Afrikaans is what they speak in South Africa. It's like, I think the most popular language is Afrikaans. Like Charlize Theron can like speak Afrikaans. I forgot that she's from South America. Yeah. I heard in her mom killed their dad. What's the relationship? Charlize Theron's a mom killed their dad. No, it's not him. Because he was like an alcoholic and like an abusive father. And it was like out of self-protection. Why? I did not know that. I did not know that either. And then Matt, your hero is also from South Africa. Elon Musk, your favorite. He is South African. You're right. Who else? Can you look up every every South African? Yeah. Nelson Mandela. Desmond Tutu. Trevor Noah. Tyler. Oh, so you know what? Yeah. Elon Musk. That's. Oh, yep. That's my trip. I'm going on tomorrow. I'm going to come back with hell, hell of, hell of stories. I'm going to try. I'm going to try to be as safe as possible and pray for me. Wish me luck. That's my trip. Do you have any trips coming up? No, I'm going to Tahoe in like two weeks. Oh, going to Tahoe just for like a fun weekend with friends and then after the boat boat day. Yeah, little boat day for sure. Was Tahoe where I went for the bachelor and you were on the other side of Tahoe? That was in South Lake Tahoe. You were in North Lake. Did I go to a popular spot of Tahoe or were you at a popular spot? We kind of to where like the really ritzier side of Tahoe is like a lot of like billionaires who are like Silicon Valley billionaires will put their houses on North Lake Tahoe because you can just get into Nevada without having to pay California taxes on that side rather than South. I think that's like the whole strategy up there. Yeah, but South Lake Tahoe is downward like all the casinos are. It's a little like, you know, more touristy casual kind of like camping vibes. Got it. You going on my family? No, I'm going with my friend. He has a place up there. So we're doing that and then oh, where am I doing after that? I feel like I am traveling somewhere. You just came back from a trip. I did. I went to Denver for my cousin's wedding. Went to Casa Bonita again for the second time. I'm done for airport. Yeah. the blue horse. Yes, the blue horse. Yes, the blue cipher blue cipher blue cipher. That's the name of and that's a really haunted horse because the sculptor of that horse died while making it. Yes. And it fell on the that's created. Yeah, that's no, we were just talking about Denver Airport on that podcast. So when you said you flew into Denver, I'm like, oh my God, this is so crazy. It's only the team is following us. Yes. It's a Denver airport also just has really weird things. People believe it's like a bunker for like the apocalypse. There's yeah, that really bizarre painting in there that looks like the end of the world. There's gargoyles down by the baggage claim. Yeah. It's very strange. They got to figure out that whole aesthetic, but they do lean into it. Like during the renovations and stuff, they have this like what better way to cover it than to lean into it. Yeah, that's true. But when it's Casa Benita, moco the gorilla recognized me from the last time I was there. There, that's good. Okay, gave me a gift because you like sign my name. We're going around. I was introducing my cousins and got to me. She's like, I know, I know. And she signed M-A-T-T. And I'm like, wait, this place seems really cool. And she gave me a little gift. Oh, where is it? Which is like out of this little octopus thing. She says to Matt from moco. Oh my God. But shout out to moco, the gorilla at Casa Benita. Thank you for remembering. Just a little thing that you just keep on the shelf for forever. But at a great time. Is this the one where they have like a whole diving show? Yes. They have the cliff divers and stuff. And those are not guests. No, those are public like local hires. No, who are probably like scouted high school divers or whatever that do this whole show and stuff. They have a puppet show that's incredible. Like all the humor is so because it's Matt Stone and Trey Parker who created South Park. Yeah. And the restaurant was around for a long time. But they bought it in around like 2020. It was for sale. They thought the renovations were going to cost them like 12.5 million dollars. And it kept getting more expensive. Like they had to redo the whole HVAC system. Every little bit of the restaurant was just like in shambles. Yeah. And it ended up costing them 42 million dollars. Holy Jesus. Like they're getting like, he's having a call. How much are they generating? And I think they make, I mean, they make good money. But to get back, I think they're still trying to get even with their profits. You got to sell a lot of food. But they're worth around 1.2 billion dollars. The guy's Matt Stone and Trey Parker. But there's a really good paramount plus documentary about them buying it. And it's good to watch it after your first time of going to Costa Benita so you can see a little bit more behind the magic. Who told you about Costa? Like how did you find this? Like because I feel like it's so random that it's in Denver. And unless you see like a lot of people talking about it, which I've never have, like why would you? My zipper has been undone this whole time. Oh, I didn't notice it. How do I hear about it? Uh, South Park culture, the internet, all of that. And when they bought it around 2020 and stuff and it was getting renovated and it just like officially launched, I think in 23 I may be wrong or 24. Uh, there was just a lot of hype about it. Everyone in Denver is talking about it. I remember seeing Tick talks about it. Yeah. So that's how we knew about it. And to become this like Denver staple truly like as a tourist destination. Yeah. But they also made these like founding member cards. So if you know that you were, if they know that you're a resident of Denver and you knew the Costa Benita before they bought it, you get priority access to reservations and stuff. So they're good about like making it true to the locals. So if he and I are going to go to Costa Benita and Jared to Emoraya and Tony and you have to go when you're done. No, but I'm saying we have to go with you because you got the end now. We're going to get together. I hope I hope they are a place of that doesn't do like much favoritism, but maybe Mocha will hook it up. We'll see. I finally got someone on the inside. Okay. Honestly, this place is like given underground tunnels. I'm not gonna lie. They have a whole underground black bars cave. They have a whole cave system. You go around and stuff. Oh, is it kind of like that? Wait, like a, like a, like a, like a, like a main made cave for the aesthetic? Yes. It's like a mini haunted house. It's kind of like the, um, remember in, uh, in Catalina Island, there was like the restaurant we went to was like very cave. Was it a cave or did it just had a Lena? Remember in Catalina, we were like a cove, a cove. Yeah, it just felt like a, it had like rock texture all on the walls. Yeah, this, you know what this looks like when you're waiting in line to ride the mommy ride at Universal. I mean, it's that level of quality of decoration is almost borderline Disney S, which is crazy, by the way. Like that whole lot, like that underground line that they made you for that ride is fucking insane. It literally looks like you're inside a pyramid. Like they did insane job with it. Oh, uh, you know how we talked about how that ride is like, uh, it's making neighbors, uh, making people, uh, uh, uh, pissed off fast and furious ride at Universal. People are not like, they know that this is happening. So there's just war right now with their are now screaming louder on the ride. Oh, to piss them off more, which I think somebody even called that out. I was like, you don't want to do that because it's just going to make people that are their pissed them up because people that go there, a lot of them, they don't live there, they're traveling, right? And then they see that they're like, who gives the fuck of people that live around here? Universal's been here since the jump. So it's like, if you're going to buy a house next to rides and you're going to hear screams, that's too fucking bad. We're going to scream louder because it pisses you off. I'm so curious to see if they end up changing anything or it's just like, sorry, guys, it is what it is. They make you wear muscles. Fucking ball gag while riding. I wonder if you could like, project out a sound in that direction. That would counter, but almost like a white noise to wear it from a far distance, you wouldn't be able to hear, but this sounds so loud. Yeah. Muffles the sound of the screams that that's possible. That's where my head is at if you had a think of a solution. They think they, uh, they do a collab with Bose thinking that just giving nape like everybody around like fancy headphones is just going to do the trick is like, Hey, so we decided to give everybody a little basket. It's like a bottle of wine and headphones. It's like, no, they'd have to deliver something every morning. Yeah. Like to make up for it. I'd be like, no, I want breakfast every day. Yeah. Or like, you know what? If I was dumb, I would give them free passes like lifetime passes. Like you guys can come enjoy the park for free whenever you want. But imagine being the house on the cutoff where you still hear it, but they just can't go there. But that's how, you know, that's how they do it though. They probably walk the streets and be like, is this, is this, do you hear this? And yep, you hear, okay, I gotta give them free passes, which do that costs them no money to get free passes. But the people already bridge, they're like, cool. I could have bought free passes from my whole family. Like they're like, is that enough? I guess, I guess to look at like everybody there is rich, right? Like, what if we throw in free soda refilled? As long as I get that big soda refilled cup with a straw like that, Star Wars themed. I want it. Did you see the kid that fell off of the ride that the water one? I think it's Jurassic Park? I thought it was AI first bro. He for so long, am I? That was so scary. I can't fully fell off a water right? Like you bit when before it drops, he like fell off. It's like a roll down drop. Oh my gosh. So this is that. Oh, it's right there. The second one. This is Tanya. Oh no, this is Tanya's by you at Disneyland. The news Disney. That's what it was. Tiana's by you adventures where he fell off a 13 year old boy climbed out. So he climbed out of his log vehicle before the 50 foot drop. Oh my gosh. So what happened? Was he scared? Like, he didn't want to drop anymore. I think probably his friends just, he was like, oh hell no, I'm not going to go down this stupid, really stupid. But like, do you think it was more of a joke? Or more of like, I'm like, I'm like, he got scared and wanted to, wanted to jump to. I don't know. You had the whole fucking log ride to think about it. You've been waiting in line and you've seen this damn drop a little meat. Like, yes, you could have been scared, but you're 13 years old. I think you should have a little bit more, but who knows if he has a little bit of mental illness could have been on the spectrum. I know. But that's what I was saying. Like, that's a crazy decision right there. Like that to me, that didn't look like it was a joke that looked more like, oh, he genuinely was terrified. Well, I just think about that. I'm scared of being on a plane. Let me open the door and jump out. No, no, I know. I know. I like, I'm just like, I don't know why I'm taking the kid's side so easily. Let's, let's hear. I feel like they're going to get a, and nobody knows if it was on purpose or not. And a lot of people like 13, I feel like you should know better by then unless the kid was mentally disabled. I'll take it back, but that sounds like a really stupid kid. Yeah, he was more already out by himself. The push was the smart move to stop him getting trapped between the wall and the ride. I'm surprised he fucking lived and walked away with minor scrapes and stuff. I know that's that literally looks like all that machinery and like metal and stuff could take your head. Oh my no, like to just, oh my god. Yeah, I'm really surprised. He made that, like made it out of life from that and all the people who are waiting in line and they're like, rides close. You've been waiting for a fucking hour now. Those water rides take fucking forever too when you're in line. My like splash mountain at Disney World. You're waiting for two hours. I'd be pissed. I want my money back. You know what? Let me see the kid. Let me, let me talk. Let me talk to him. Before we continue, we want to give a big thank you to our sponsor of this podcast Upwork.

Thank you for sponsoring this podcast. We love you. This is actually a perfect segue. I just found out about Disney's like the secret codes that cast members use for different sort of things. So like, you know, if a guest has an accident like code H is for if a guest shits themselves or something code is for you, you're in code V is for vomit. But then they go as far as like a lot of people want to spread ashes. Oh, Disney parks. So like code A or code grandma is what cast members use if they catch somebody or if they find ashes around the park. This is if they find it, they just say that. They'll if they find if you get caught spreading ashes, like, well, that's what happened at that haunted mansion ride. Oh, right. Her only ass was to be spread around the haunted and when that person died, her family member or friend, whatever was spreading it. And they had to shut the whole ride down. They came with hazmat suits and everything. Oh, kind of. Fucking Disney adult, where you're like, I won't spread my ashes. It's crazy. You might get banned from the park for the rest of your life. I know. I need you to spread my ashes at Disney. I'm crazy. And I wonder how do I make this about me? But I wonder how she was doing. You're right. Because like when I heard the story for the first time in my head, she had the whole earn in her head. Like I pictured it in the most unrealistic way possible. But then I was like, oh, she definitely had like a ziplock bag in her pocket. And she was like this and just salt being it throughout the whole ride. And just can you imagine somebody looking at the camera footage and be like, what is she doing? And you just see a hand going like this. Dude, you in your head, you're like, oh, this person is is this poison? anthrax. Yeah. Do it. Like it's like Catholic mass. I want to be if you're going to spread me out, I want to be like that. Yes. Yes. Sorry. Let me go. Or he'd dilute me in like holy water and just like let you just like, that's a good little hack. A little hack. Yeah, you could say you're sweating. Oh my god. I was sweating. I was also scared on the ride. I was just dripping. If you get cremated and if you were to spread your ashes, would you like you to be scattered in different places? Like I'll win a little bit of me. Like here, a little bit of me at Disneyland. Or you like full done people in one place. Like a whole like a whole trip. And then they got to go travel and deal with it. And then they're separating it and they're sorting it out. Do you guys believe that the way you're taking care after you die, that's where you're like sparrow will like continue your afterlife like or just that's how you're going to know. I believe it's whatever you believe. So if it gives you a piece of mind knowing that you're scattered in multiple places and that's your wishes, then by all means it do it. Yeah, that's how I feel too. I like it to me. I feel like it's not a how you die. Everybody is just like in the same pool after. That's what but when I see someone that's jumping all the ashes in one spot a bit, I think I kind of want myself in a kind of multiple places at one time. There is something really comforting though about being buried next year loved ones. Like to me, like I could, if I was going to choose anything, I think that makes the most sense in the casket just in case in my head is like it's a day of romantic. Yeah. It's just like it also just in case you like we don't know, but what if it really we all rise again. It really did like a matter where you're a buried like in who you're next to. Imagine you're a buried next to somebody that you had fucking no idea and then you wake up and you're like now in the afterlife, you're next to this person. You just stuck. I just think like burials is ridiculous how much that costs like the normal person. It's very expensive. It's buying the plot. Buying the casket, getting the body pumped with formaldehyde. Like it's just it's wild. How expensive death is. Yeah. And how much of a financial burden you're already putting that on a family dealing with the loss of it. Yeah, it can cost average cost of a funeral in a burial can be like $8,000. Like I don't know. I think they should figure that out. I wonder what the process is, right? Maybe if I were to like see the entire process of what they do with a body, maybe my head is like, oh, okay, maybe it does take a really long time. Maybe they do it in the proper way where it's like, oh, this is like, and you know how you always charge more with things that are like super unsettling, you know, the job's just got cost more. Like if you're doing something that like and not a lot of people want to do, that makes sense to me too. It's like who wants to sit there and work with dead bodies all day. But even the cost of a casket is outrageous. Yeah. And that business is consistent because there's always people that are going to be dying. That's why funeral homes are always like a family business and stuff. And it's like, it's a good business to go into because people are always going to be dying. But it's I think profiting off of death is a little strange. Like the thing is, I like if I knew that I was screwing somebody over price wise, like gauging up the price on a family and then I just went there morning. I just wouldn't be able to sleep like and just being surrounded around that type of energy. Oh my god. Like I feel like people that work in funerals, I feel like a lot of them, the ones that are like fucked up in their head, they don't even like believe that there's like this spiritual afterlife. I think in their head, they're just like money, money, money, because if they did believe in it, they wouldn't be doing it, right? Like in their head, they're like, oh, I'm not going to be punished because there is no afterlife. Like this is just money, money, money, money. Remember, you'll have to casket up with the Bellingham house. Fuck yeah. There was a casket that was always in the corner. I remember. It was in the living room, just like, yes, it was for like clearly some bit David did, but like it was just in there. It was like a staple piece of furniture in the house. Whenever you're bored, you can just get it. When you're drinking, we would be like taking pics of us like texting it. Now I'm looking that I was like, that was like a kind of door. I know. Where is that casket now? Because I don't know. I donated to somebody. Somebody probably buried in it right now. Honestly, you know what? I think they may have gone that from a prop house. Okay. I don't think they got it from like a legitimate like mortuary or like a place where you buy coffins. It's like a like a play one. A play one. Yeah. Oh, have you seen the people that go around cleaning like tombstones and like grave sites? Love that. TikTok. Like out of the goodness of their hearts. Yeah. People that they don't know like ones that have you could tell have been like run down. They're like kind of tipped over. That's nice. Overgrown things like that. They'll just like film. Restoring it. Yeah. Cleaning it up. I'm like, that's really nice. Oh, wait. And that's not there. Like, there's not their job that you're not on their free time. Oh, I didn't know you're a lot of go to any graves like that and just like do whatever you want. I don't know they're cleaning it, but I didn't. I think if it's it's if it's someone who you clearly can tell that everyone that person doing their life is dead and no one is going in visiting this tombstone. Yeah. Why not give it a little clean? I have no issue with that. Yeah. If there were flowers being left at that certain person, I'd be like, uh, I'm not going to just like clean this up and someone comes back goes, who did this? Like, I don't know. Bro, I've been seeing this on my feed so much and I for the first few, I thought it was real until I go to their page and I'm like, Oh, this is all they fucking do. And it's not just one couple. It's many couples are doing this and I never understood why it's so weird couples that do like those cheating videos like, Oh, I caught my girlfriend cheating caught my boyfriend cheating and there are a couple, but it's a it's a it's a skit. It's like they're not real. And if you've been seeing those, it's all they do, but it's like it's it's supposed to feel real. But this is a couple doing this to each other and constantly posting it. And I don't understand how what I don't know why they do it because it gets views. I know it gets clipped farmed and it goes around and they like I get like I understand you know, I mean this was a very popular back then when a boy would do a video of him with next to his friend that's wearing a wig in bed. She comes in who the fuck is it? And then it's like, Oh, like I get that because there's an end to it. It's a prank. It's like, Oh, okay, that's not a real girl. That's a friend. Okay, the video's over. Prank is over. This is just like, it like leaves a permanent stain on the relationship. Yes, like, I don't. Yeah, you're putting your face to something even though it's like a sketch, too. Yeah. So if I see this couple in real life, the first thing in my head is, Oh my God, that's the couple that like that's a that's the guy that she did on her. What are they doing? Yeah, out together. You know, I mean, like it's feel it's that real. Like that's how we have these videos. And it's multiple. A lot of couples do this. And it's like a joint channel. Like I'll look at their channel. It's a joint couple channel. And they don't they they're weird. It is really weird. I hate prank couples. We're like, we prank each other, but y'all prank each other every damn week. It's not funny. Yeah. It's like, it's clearly so stage. Yeah, you're in on the bit. It's like, oh, they're so funny. They pull pranks. Like, that's their job. They just got to do it in a better way because the moment I go to their page and I see that, Oh, it's every week. Obviously in my head, it's like, Oh, okay, this is like most likely stage. Maybe the first couple were real, but now they're all stage. If you're going to do it, you just got to do it in a way where it doesn't feel like do other stuff. First of all, how does that even start? Like say they had a joint account, right? They're filming like normal content. How do you pitch that idea? Like, y'all, for a video, do you want to do this thing? We're like, yeah, I catch you cheating. What? Like, and then they do it and it gets millions of views. They go, we should keep doing it. Yeah. Like, oh, my gosh. That video made us a couple thousand dollars. Like, dude, if we did this like every week, it's just work. And we're like, I'm a creator. We're creators. I understand it, like, especially seeing numbers like that. You're like, Oh, my God. But cheating is just such a big fucking in security on every couple, like most couples. So I'm just surprised that they would even put that energy into them within themselves like that, because that's all I would think about. In my head, like I'd watch these videos of me and my wife just doing these videos and just one day, in my head, one day, I'm just gonna be like, this is weird. Like what if something's actually happening? - And they actually do it. And they're like, I was, you were supposed to walk in. - Yeah. (laughing) - I wanted you to find me on Tinder. - Even crazier reaction. So I'm starting to, baby, it was the bit. - Yeah, it's very interesting to me, but I saw this and I was like, oh, I wonder if these guys have seen these videos, 'cause I get them a lot now. - I can spot a stage video from a mile. - Oh, yeah. - Like, and I hate seeing comments that buy shit. I'm like, oh my, how do you not see through these things? - Sometimes, sometimes they're good actors. It's good, but you figure it out like after 15 seconds. One little reaction is a little off. You're like, oh, staged. - I hate like a rage bait video where it's someone doing maybe like a DIY task very, very bad, or they're cooking something that's like very awful. And everyone in the comments are just like, this is disgusting. Why would someone make it? But I'm like, they made it so you would comment that. - Is it not? - It's like, oh, I'm gonna make a breakfast. This is like, I do this on the skillet. When I guess over, I'm making some Mexican breakfast like not, so whatever. - But there's never really not bad. And like, it's just, and it's going on for minutes of them just like, doing a terrible thing. But most of the internet, they think it's real. It's not. And usually at the person's talking a lot as well in the video, it's like, see, this is just what we do. Anytime we have gas over blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, and it's, you never see the face. - I want somebody to do like a whole video of different levels of rage bait. Like, I want to see level one, level two, level three, level four. And I want it, I want them to give examples of each level. And I want to see it all broken down in a video. Like, that would be the science of it. - Not the science of it, just like, examples of rage bait. Because like, that one to me is like, that is like, very rage bait. But I just want to know what level rage bait is. - Level rating, that is, right? - Well, it's, what are you rating it on? The level of it's, it's really getting your attention. You're watching it all the way through. - Of absurdity. - Yeah. - Like, absurdity and like, of clickbait. - Yeah, I would say, like, to me, this is like level five. Like, this is a bit, this is a high level of rage bait. Is the cheating one, right? Because it's like, like, sensitive. Like, people get very insecure about that in relationships. And then as a couple are using that as a way to rage bait. Couples, like, you know how many couples probably watch these videos and like, start questioning everything about their relationship. Like, how much anxiety it causes to them. Like, to me, that's, - Rage bait isn't talked in about enough. I was like, a warning to just people because you are getting your attention drained away on something that was created to train your attention. No, I knew you could say that about anything. - Everything, yeah. - It's the whole attention game. But it's just this really gross way of time sucking your attention into something for a false sense of gain. It's, it's, it pisses me off because it's a waste of time. - Yeah. - They robbed you of your time. - There's just like, there's just a certain formula to it. You just have to do it right, right? Like, if you're a couple and you're gonna do a cheating video, do it in a way where in the end, there is a-- - Gotcha. (laughing) - There's something funny that comes out of it, right? Like, it's a-- - There just needs to be like a reveal. Like, it needs to just end. There needs to be an end to the story. - Yeah, exactly. Yeah, 'cause we all know social media. Like, a lot of it can be fake. But just like, let the viewers know in the end that something is either supposed to be comedic or fake or-- - Right, right. You know, do you want to see how you're putting it together and-- - Before we continue, this episode is brought to you by Seekyke. Making plans with friends should not feel like a committee meeting. But somehow it always turns into, what do you want to do? Oh, I don't know, what do you want to do? Followed by a, I guess I'm down for whatever. Nobody wants to be the one to actually pick the thing. And if that thing sucks, well, great. I've wasted everyone's time and money. But now I just open the Seekycap.

We love you. You want to know what makes me more mad though than rage bait videos? Do you know what bean soup theory is? Yes, yes, I love my favorite little like brother. I hate these people. Oh, wait, bean soup theory, wait, so what is this? A social media phenomenon where users leave self-centered comments on public posts demanding that the content be tailored to their personal preferences or asking what about me? It is so stupid. Like the original one was this thing that came from the bean soup video, but it would be like somebody's making like a video on. Well, I could because I actually saw this video when it first came out, the bean soup. Yes, so this girl was making bean soup and she was putting it in there doing her own bean soup and then the top comment was, but what if you don't like beans? (laughing) But what about me? I don't eat beans. And then she's just like, then don't fucking man. Don't make the fucking bean soup. But are people now commenting bean theory type? Well, bean theories soup type like comments? Under comments, yeah. Just to like get engaged. No, but you can tell which ones are like real and which one like is it? Like you can be like, okay, this like I wish I can remember the example of another one that I saw, but I was like, there's no way these people. I saw one recently. There was a lot of people are making like with the ninja creamy like protein ice cream or whatever. And somebody was like, this is how you make the best like chocolate chip, rocky road, whatever thing. And somebody commented, what if I don't like chocolate? Oh my God, I almost punched them through my screen. What if I don't like chocolate? Don't make the fucking chocolate ice cream. It sounds just like a six year old commenting. Like it's so, what if I'm allergic to peanuts? (laughing) You know what these social media accounts need to do now? I think it's required. Every social media account, your face needs to be on the picture. Yeah. 'Cause I bet you a lot less people will be commenting if you can see everybody's fucking face. I forget what country it is. I think it's somewhere in Europe, but they're requiring social media. You have to be 16 years old. And I'm like, let's do that here. But do you think you anonymity, you're allowed to be anonymous on the internet? Yeah, I mean, that's, that's your right to be. Yeah, for sure. So I got Australia. Australia. And France. I don't think it's like, I mean, it's not like a, they probably are trying to set certain parameters. So they don't allow that, but I'm sure a lot of people are able to bypass it, right, in a way. I mean, probably. Yeah, like super easy to get around all this stuff. But it has to be like not through the app, like through the phone, right? Like when you're, when you're like setting up your phone. Yeah. You, so you can technically remain anonymous per app, whatever you want to do. But like if you go to download it and sign up, it knows like this is blocked. It's almost like a, a built in parental control. Because you're 16 and you're still considered a child, does that now fall on the parents to make sure that those, they don't buy, like how do you like, as a parent, make sure that you're following this law now in Australia. I don't know. Something to it, like what I think is the dumbest thing, you go to like an alcoholic beverage site. Are you 21? Yes. And who was sitting there being like, no, yeah, they don't, they don't require an idea when you purchase the alcohol. No, I said things accessing the website, accessing the website, but when you purchase the alcohol from the site, purchasing, oh, yeah, okay, okay, okay. But to move forward on the site, yeah, I mean, that's, I feel like it'd be really tough to, unless you give your identification through like that site, like the, the first page. But like why put it? Who's sitting there being like, let me see, oh shit, I think it's, I think it's on advertising laws. Also, when we have alcohol brand deals or for certain countries, we have to put age restrictions on our ads as influencers to make sure that these ads are not going to people who are under the age of 21 and even younger in different countries. Yeah. And you know, everything has always happened once before they make a change, right? So I'm sure somebody sued an alcohol company because they said, well, my kid was able to access this site and there was nowhere that said it was for 21 and plus. So now they're like, fuck, this is to refrain us from getting sued if they say that, oh, my kid had no idea that this site was for only 21 and older. So that's why they did that. But that makes sense. So I get that. But it's just like lobbyist time growing on, it is very interesting. We'll go with the 21 plus on alcohol post some have it, some don't. I'm like, why is it some have it, some don't? You know, it's like the way, you know, cigarette ads used to be, you never saw cigarette commercials for our generation growing up, but we, you could see cigarette ads in like sports illustrated magazines and stuff like that. Now there is no print ad, you can't advertise for cigarettes at all anymore. Yeah. And that's why lobbyists will try to get cigarettes in movies and shows and stuff as a way of like getting smoking a little bit more popular. What a booming business though, huh? No advertising and it's like, and it just crushes. Camelcrush. Camelcrush. Camelcrush. Camelcrush. You can't regret the movie. Thank you for smoking is very interesting about like, is that the one Brad Pitt in it? No, it's the guy who played Harvey Dent in the dark night. Forget that. His name is Ed Something. No, near and at heart. I'm like Rob Lowe, but it's all about like, like being a lobbyist for the smoking industry and trying to get ways to get people to smoke. Yeah. 86% of Rotemano's love that. All right, I'll watch it. It's a very good movie that just nails the head on that mystery of what we're talking about of like, how do you get people to commit devices around a world where they're setting up as many barriers as you can to get people not to. You remember going out in like downtown Fort Lauderdale and there'd be like those people that work for Marble or. Yes. Yes. Oh my God. And if you talk about that, put your email in and whatever and they give you a pack of cigarettes for free on the spot. Oh. Yeah. That was crazy. We go. I bet they still do it. Yeah. It's illegal because you're already in an establishment that sometimes bars do sell cigarettes. You know, God. You just can't be out in the streets doing it. No. You have to be like inside an established. I remember them being like on the sidewalk. I think I think they're. I think they're sneaking out there. I remember being in bars and they would just have this little like pin pad thing. Yeah. America information. And then you had a free pack of smoke. America's backyard. And that's it and to us, it was like, that's crazy, you're going to free packet cigarettes. And you only got to do is just put your fucking email just yeah. And then I started getting shit coming to my parents house in the mail. He who saw. He ran. It was bad. I would always put a fake address every time I put a fake address. I put a fake email and I think she knows she knows about those cigarette packs walking around. She knows it. All she had to do was go out once and would see one of those people walking around. They gave it to me. I look like a smoker, so they gave it to me for free. I was going to give it to you as a gift for your birthday. They got a virus that I was trying to get rid of the virus trying to delete the virus. My pants were out, speaking of smoking, my pants fell out because I was the lady of virus. But I can't wait for like, when Tony starts doing stuff, just lying to my face and like, he was a parent, know it, but you're just like hearing it out like, sure, let me just let him go off the rails and make it up like just, oh, okay, or he's just that damn good. I think he's like, there's good issues like nothing to worry about and he's just a madness. Oh, man. Out of those walls.

And there's a very vulnerable moment for me, but I started vaping again. Not very good. Oh, wow. I broke my. What was it? Hundred and. You went a long time. Yeah, I think I was like 130, between 130 to 150 days. It was sitting in my living room, picked it up, did it, and I haven't stopped since. It's been like a month and a half, two months now, but I have to stop in November because I'm doing something and I have to stop. Can you still consume nicotine? Well, yeah, that's. Well, during the time you quit vaping, you were using nicotine. That's how I would quit. That's a bummer. Yeah, because I struggled with it when I went cold turkey is that I quit cold turkey off nicotine in general and that it still drove me nuts. Oh, you see, it actually really, really helped me. Well, that, because you were still able to have nicotine, when I quit vaping, I quit nicotine all together and then I relapse. This is the best way to do it. Like, if you don't like the gun, that's even better, because I didn't really like that. I didn't like the. Yeah. My mouth fell on my throat. It gives you like a. A golf ball in your throat. Yeah, it feels like a fucking awful, yeah. Sitting on the nicotine for so long, there's a brevity with vaping where you're like, okay, all right, I'm good, but when you have nicotine in your mouth, you're like, get this out of me. So it was satisfying me from not picking on my vape, but also I was like, okay, I can't wait for this feeling to go away because I hate this feeling that my throat gets when I do it. So I was able to. I don't know if you remember how long I was doing that gun for, but I don't think I was doing it for that long. I was probably doing it for like maybe a month. Yeah. So I felt like, oh, I don't need to do this anymore. And then you weaned off of it. I remember you were having more in the beginning and then you started doing less every day. Yeah. And then you would do like half of a piece. I would only do it before recording. I remember that. I had like. Yeah, it's like stress relief. You got to like grind or get down to work. That's. If I have a whole day where I have no conflict, nothing's coming at me. I don't have to respond to anything. I have no craving for nicotine at all. Yeah. But it's just the moment it's like grinding, I'm like, okay, let's do it. Yeah. Because you're fucking crutch. It's terrible. But yeah, I just wanted to let you guys know that in case, you know, you ever see me doing it? I've done it. You came forward. You're not hiding it. I'm not hiding it. Yeah. No, it's just because I'm going to stop again. So I have and also like you have to at some point in your life because that shit will kill you. It really will. So you ever, if you break or have it, you come back and then you break it again. It's fine. It's okay. Just you don't want to get popcorn long. Yeah. Just get back on it, give yourself a date and a time, give yourself a goal and then try to find ways to help you get there. You know what I was thinking about? Well, this kind of just reminded me of it. Things that you eat, your stomach, the acid in it will break down and like flush out. Yeah. But like your lungs don't do that. So like if I'm breathing in sawdust, like while I'm cutting shit out here, does that stay in your lungs forever? The lungs are capable of regenerating as well. Do they? Yeah. It will like break down material in your lungs. Well, like meaning if you like smoke cigarettes for forever and then like the thing you stop smoking, your lungs can kind of regenerate and like heal and get back to normal. Hopefully if you haven't done it. But also there's I think because you've been working in your basement for so long, I think there's certain things that you can take like supplements like that, like help break down, just that flemmy mucus shit that you've got you've got from working the basement. Because I think that's why I'm getting like my like I've had like crazy sinus issues for a while, but it's been a lot worse since I did this and then when I dunked under my head under the pool for like a second, it just like exploded and then ever since that just been wrecked. Yeah, just start looking up, just start looking up ways to start clearing out your lungs again. They're like sleep with like some moisture just to get like your mucus going and get that flem out because that's what's going to extract any irritants that are in your lungs. I've been doing those little like vix tabs in the shower. Oh nice. Nice. Yeah, yeah. Those are really nice. I know I was taking this when I was quitting when I was quitting vaping just to clear out my lungs. There's these pills that you can take that really flush out all that shit in your lungs that it like picks up and it was working. It was working really well for me. I'll try to find out what brand that was again. I got to look at my phone, but it really helped and I feel like you should, especially since you've been working in the basement with all of that essentially, because I'm sure those guys, you know, those like those guys that just work in construction and shit, I'm sure that they start wearing fucking mass and shit now because dude, it's probably so bad. The people that did my floor, not one of them wore a mask. I walked down in my basement and couldn't even breathe. Oh, that's really bad. Bro, it's the whole house wreaked, bro. It was so bad and they were down here in this room, no mask, just putting shit. I'm like, you guys don't want to mask or anything and they were just like, now we're good. I'm surprised they're like employers to their contractors don't require that like with their people, they're hiring just to be like safety. Jared, can you look that up? I'm really curious to see like what, like how many, how early these issues come with people that work in that, uh, in that field. Uh, acute conditions show up within weeks to a few years after 10 to 20 years of exposure, chronic irreversible. Oh, God, yeah, these guys, like mesothelioma. and stuff too. Like Patricia's like grandmother, like, uh, died when she was really young and she was like a teacher at a school. And I believe a handful of other teachers also kind of died around that time. But she was probably exposed to it when she was in her 40s. And they didn't realize it until later that they all like got it. I believe that's like the story of the case of all from something you got exposed to from so long ago. But like, that makes you sick over something like that. That's why you also those commercials like viewer level and has been diagnosed with mesothelioma, they can like trace down. If there are connections of other people, where did you work this long ago? Was it like it's too late? Once you like once you have it, like, it's too late that like you die. Yeah. But like you're entitled to make compensation and stuff like that. Oh, this is when you're older though. Like you got it. And then later down the road, you realize, oh, I got it from probably years ago, then they tried to get down. That's really scary sometimes about getting exposed to things that you weren't aware of. Yeah. That could have been prevented. That's why it's important to get regulations and have inspectors come into any place where people are working to make sure conditions are just up to code. That's insane. I feel like shit's going to come out about Wi-Fi when we're like, bring it on. Everyone's getting it then on. But you know, as long as we got we got a return from it, you know, like if later down the road up, we all die from Wi-Fi. I'm like, man, it was a good run though. I have fun on there. Everywhere. And we have fun. Your granddaddy had fun on that Wi-Fi. Oh, I have a Florida story. Let's hear it. Yes. Is this recent or is this from 2012? Or is this a fake one? Okay. Let's see. It's actually a Florida woman story. Okay. Very recent. This girl, she's 21 years old. She's a flight instructor. And she was taking a student up and had the emergency land landed it on the freeway. And at the last second went underneath one of the signs. You know, like the big signs like on the highway that are like green. Yeah. Dipped underneath one of those. Like one of those big metal like signs that go across the whole thing. Absolute miraculous that she was able to get this plane underneath this and land. Was this because the person she was up there in the plane with like bailed or something and said, like, you got it. No, she was the instructor. She was the instructor. Okay. Oh, oh, I thought it was a river. I thought the instructor something happened to instructor. And then the girl that was being trained to land it. No, the person that the guy that she was training, it was his first time ever doing a flight lesson. Imagine you're like, yeah, I think I want to be a pilot. You go up for your first lesson. And that's it. Yep. Nope. That's a sign. That is a sign. I'm good. Thank you. Like, gosh. Isn't that insane? Fucking what? That type of maneuver is what I do on flight simulator when I'm fucking around. Let me see if I can get up under this bitch. Let me squeeze between these buildings. And you said under it, but she didn't hit any of the, um, the poles. No, went right right underneath it right between it. Lane is safely. And then they stopped on the road and they got wow. I always have a feeling I'm going to see an emergency landing of a plane. Like someone clue was driving a work that day and was like, my god, in the whole plane comes down. Like, I don't want to see a crash. I don't want to see people die. But like, I always think I'm going to witness like an emergency landing. Yeah. I never thought in my life I'd see a plane land right in front of me. I try to be there here. I'll be like, I got you. I'm like, trying to be under the plane. I'm going. Oh my god. That's crazy. I'm suing you. But the guy that just wants to be on the news also. Yeah. I gotta get in this. I want to be in this story. Somebody, somebody that just wants a new car too. Yeah. Just like done hit me. Hit me. Is y'all here about that national anthem with Martha Reeves? Yeah. You sent it to me. I was at the fucking howling, dude. Women's pro baseball all star tournament. Um, Martha Reeves. Who was the lead singer of Martin, the band. Talk that usually it's like the always the best way to find it quick. I mean, this one, this one has joined the ranks of like Fergie's national anthem. Yeah. Fergie was, I mean, Fergie's was special. Oh, but she was so good in her prime, though. Like she. Right. Fergie was too. And what's giving not making fun? We're just hearing her out. I was so proud that we have the time. I'm sleeping. Who's brought stripes and bright? Okay. So are like, why? They're going to. Why are we doing two? They're going to do Fergie dirty and they're going to show all the player's faces while she was singing. Why didn't they show any of the anybody's faces in that video? They just did a big zoom out. Yeah. They were just like, we can't. You know, those, you know, those girls would have been cracking up. You know, those girls would have been like, well, because it didn't someone had a clip of her with the background singers before. And like, they were trying to rehearse. And then she was like, no, you're off key. She's getting mad at the other girls. I, and you could tell that I don't think they're like a full trio. I think the venue was like, I think we're going to give you some background singers. And then like, she was like, no, no, like, oh, my, and that's kind of what happened. And the thing is, they didn't just reply. I would have replaced her immediately. But no, we call the fame legend. We can't fix it. Like, we have to fix this though. Because now look what we have. We have now a video for singing and everybody's shitting on her. That was a, that would be the first thing I would thought of. I'd been like, I really don't want this lady to like go into a fucking manic like, be free. That is because of the feedback. That's a damn shame or shame on her team. Like if you're representing Martha Reeves and you're like, Martha's not responding. It's like, I don't think she should be doing this. Yeah. And let's Martha was like, oh, no, I'm doing it. Like someone, someone like me, yes, I wouldn't back out because like, it's fine if I get all the comments. But again, she is a hall of fame or like, you don't want her to be the last thing that she fucking does. And this is how people remember her. Like, you have to like think about that. And she was known for her vibrato. Like, if you listen to her old stuff, it's like, you can hear what she's trying to do. She just is not hitting it in team that she used to be. And, and guys, Fergie, what was the last time you saw Virgie? Last time I saw her, was that national anthem. Yeah, that confidence sheet metal. Like, I said, she sounds like this. Oh, my God. People are so good. I just love she has this moment where she kind of steps away from them. And she's like, hold on. You know, like, they're singing the three that she kind of walks away. And it's like trying to get it herself. You know, it's like, you know, Ricky Thompson. He does those like, it's just like, these are the type of videos you got to like take inspiration in from when you do a TikTok character video. Oh, Martha. What's your way? Martha, who? I've actually never heard of it. Dancing in the streets. It doesn't matter what you wear. Okay. Dancing in the street. He I heard there was one little note. I recognize it. I don't know. I hit it, but I'm glad you got it. No, it's really good. Oh, thank you. I want to watch me land a plane too. All right, guys. Well, thank you so much for watching another episode.
