Cobblestone on Maine at one on nine West Main Street in the village of Webster.
I love reading reviews, and I went to the Cobblestone on Maine facebook
page. It's just facebook dot com slash Cobblestone on Maine, and I saw
this review. Left best calamario I've had in a while, so tender and
fresh. The staff is very friendly, and the building is something to see.
Converted historical barn and Webster. Great job by the owner. I couldn't
agree more. But it's a renovated cobblestone church. And I only say that
not to be like sounds smugging in a chirk, but because it's a farm
style restaurant. When you're in there, you can't tell that it used to
be a church. But I'll tell you what they got the spirits. They
got graft cocktails to match bets. Your mood, then match the season.
That's the weather, all right. You sit down at that upscale bar and
you order yourself something delicious. Maybe you get a shareble like the pow Tots.
It's housemaid tater tots, krispy bacon yanches, cheese curds, housemaid gravy
poutine. Tots. It's a great shareable. You gotta admit it's ingenious.
What's going on food wise over at Cobblestone on Maine. And then they have
intimate dining. And the great thing is if you were in the back,
because it's two cobblestone buildings put together, it's almost soundproof, like they could
have music and some stuff happening in the main dining room, but you're in
the back, you just hear it very softly. Though. It's really just
an awesome, awesome place. If you have not been there, put it
on your list, you know. Eat local Cobblestone on Maine at one on
nine West Main Street in the village of Webster, from the mac of All
Trade Studio in Fairport and driven by Victor Chrysler Dots Jeep Ram. It's Billified
the Bill Moran Podcast. Well, hello and welcome. Thanks for getting your
pot on. Thanks for telling a friend. That's how we spread the word
about the Birn Ship. Day two of tampon face. I see that.
Yeah, they let you keep it at least so I could give the weather
unbelievable. So I don't know if it's does it hurt now? Yeah,
I will tell everybody. The answer is no, but it does. And
I say no, because I don't think anybody gives a fuck. I don't
think that there's a person that gives a shit. And what are they gonna
do? You know what I mean? Like, if you say to somebody,
I would have had somebody give you a body misses. But do you
understand that he could go so they can look at you and go, I
know, I'm I'm sorry to hear that. So I just go, No,
everything's great, it hurts, it's annoying. I was gonna take most
of this all off today, but they kept saying, wait, you know,
don't shower. So I did, like a Irish shower. Yeah,
I did an Irish shower. You can't wash your hair because you can't get
it wet. Uh, that can happen tomorrow, but supposed to happen later
in the day. But I said, listen, I got a ton of
ship, a ton of ship that starts extremely early tomorrow. And she's like,
yeah, probably right, And so I got to do that. I
have an idea, is it training at all or is it just no,
it's just sewn up. But they had to go in a little deeper than
they you know, they did it once. They had to go back,
They had to go back and go for more. If this were five years
ago and you could get those bags at Wegmans. Yeah, these grocery bags
put around your head, tie box? I have a did you oh you
know what you could? I got them on the black market. Wow,
tied around what your face? Yeah? Around your head. I'm joking.
Of course you would suffocate. It was weird. It was weird going to
the Target in Pennsylvania actually getting a plastic bag. I'm like, oh,
don't care, yeah, right down here, right, I can't. I'm
an idiot. I still keep forgetting to, like, you know, get
bags like grab stuff. And I'm carrying crap out of Wegmans like an idiot.
There's still and they and they and they they judge you when you're like,
do you want to pay a bag? Now? I'm good, I
got like six things. There's I want to spend this, just carry it
some places. Some places can still use them. The Chinese restaurants still use
them. Yeah, And and there's other semi grocery stores that still use them.
I will not name them because I don't know if it's how they got
grandfather didn't. Maybe they didn't. Maybe they're just believe. I believe I
may have got one of Jimmy's's the last time I was there. Probably Wow,
well he was going on. I think he bought them all on bulk
when they were on sale before the before the government changed the rules. Juzy
was going out in the blazing glory, you know, I mean these plastic
bags until we close this place at the end of February twenty ninth. Take
that. That's the Uh. Yeah, Now my wife has like these special
bags that like you buy ahead of time that you put your grocery. He's
in to save the environment. You mean they were usable ones that everybody has,
Yeah, pretty much. Yeah, but I always forget them. Yeah.
She goes keep keep them in your car so when you go in you
could use it. But I never remember them. Yeah. Yeah, So
write yourself a little note, put it on the Dashboard's like you're ninety boodling
did not have to go grocery shopping. That's what he's doing. Yeah.
Probably, No, I don't think like that. I forgot. I just
don't think understand. You just don't have to shop. Well, next time
you go, just pick me up a bottle of advill Okay, what a
liquefied card. That that's the thing is, like, I go, somebody,
cause somebody came in here, we was talking to me and go,
you know, and they go, it's just like you. It's a hurt
And I said no, and they go, come on, and I go,
yeah, but I'm gonna say no because if there isn't a person on
the planet that gives a flying fuck one way or the other, I go,
what are they gonna do? Bring me a bottle of Adville? I
mean, what are they gonna do? Yeah, people don't care. I
mean. And that that was like, here's the thing that I as,
I kind of think that way. My thing to anybody would be do whatever
you want to do and stop doing it for the reaction of others, because
no matter what anybody says to you, they don't really care. I mean
they do. I understand they care. They care. People care. There
are people that care about you. But most of the time, like even
if they're going to ridicule you, you it's three minutes and then they're onto
something else. It doesn't matter. Go do what you want to do and
don't listen to anybody. What kind of pain is it is like just that
dull aching, never ending, always like almost like a sinus, like your
head's congested, kind of dull because it's it's it was more than I expected.
So it's double stitch. They said this all you know, it's I'm
repeating myself, but it was. It was underneath it they do stitches that
will dissolve. Then on top they do stitches that they have to take out
because they want to tighten it up. So I got to go back in
next next week and get those out. But that that's it, not until
you're not going to have your bandage. Do the weather or anything like that.
No, no, not, I did do that with Yes, I
did do that in the past, and I well, we're trying to make
something out of nothing. He's not hack anymore, Dan, I'm still I
was working at a different company and that got around the building. You won't
believe what they did on the show. What they had his tumor give the
weather. Yeah, I did the weather tumor, So I did do I
asked his permission before I know you did. I know you did. I
don't care. I could do that, I could, I could say that.
I will say like this is like a minor form of skin cancer.
But it does make you kind of think because when they said to me,
I was expecting to be like in and out right, and they said to
me, they call me and go two to four hours as what we're expecting.
Well, sounded like all right, and I know that as as though
I'm not super young, I am for what they see. And and you
know, because there was the one guy in front of me. They ask
your birthday and uh, he gives nineteen thirty eight was the year, right,
So that's like the average in there, and then there's me, So
I, uh that was before the boom, So I thought for sure,
like you know, they'll cut it and then they test to make sure they
got it all and then they come in and sew yup. So I'm waiting
and then they go, oh, we got to go back in and there's
some over here and they show you on it. I was like, I
don't care, I'm not gonna know. Just get it out, Just get
it out and repeat live like you're dying. No, they let you choose
your own music. They let you choose talk about it the option. She
said, even there like John Hyatt really well I didn't say John Hyatt,
I said John Mayer. But she said, uh, to me, the
only thing he may turn off is cancer. Man. So see, that's
the thing is though you start thinking and I go, you know, how
much time do you have? Right? Yeah? And I know that people
I don't know. It's been this weird thing lately for me because I go,
I really believe you can do or be or have whatever you want in
life. You can, but we don't. And the reason we don't is
because of all the restrictions we put on ourselves and all the stupid thinking and
all the resistant thinking, Wow I can't or I want, But you want
stuff because you believe you'll be better off for having it. Maybe it's a
bigger house, a nicer car, a lover or whatever, you know what
I'm saying, like those things, and I don't know, but we get
it and then it becomes like our reality, so we just sort of move
on to the next thing. You're always wanting, right, You're always wanting,
like, there's always that thing. But I started, I go,
it's fleeting, But why do you want it at your core? You know,
Like, why do you want something at your core? What is it?
Satisfaction. Maybe like you want a bigger house so every kid can have
their own room. If you maybe you're having a blended family now and you
need a bigger house. There's this house and it's not closing and whatever.
There's all this hang up on it, and I go, well, go
back to the reason why you want it. You want it so everybody can
have an ease and a flow to life in their own space and all that
stuff. Go back to that the house that you're trying to get. Maybe
there's one that's better. You know it's in the ideal school districts. In
the end, maybe there's one better right right there that you don't know about.
Just go back to that feeling. Same thing with people, right,
I want this part, but to go back to what you want, the
core base reason of why you want it. There may be someone better.
The players may be different, but even better better than you ever expected,
you know what I'm saying. So I don't know why I keep thinking about
that. So that's why I feel like your plan isn't working out and you're
banging your head against the wall on something. Go back to the core feeling
as to why you want this or what you think and usually it's satisfaction,
abundance, whatever it is. Go back to that and try to just hold
on to that feeling. And I guarantee, man, everything's gonna work out
for you. It may not work out the way you're picturing it in your
mind now. It may be different people, different players, different things,
but it probably will be better. Yeah, you know, and I and
I I don't know why, I just I've been thinking of that a lot,
you know, a lot. Well, just one of these nights,
but sure you teach one of us how to upload the show so we can
do the tribute when you're gone. It's very easy to do. It's just
a push of a button. You're not gonna do a tribute with me me,
Thanks, Dan Brick, not just call dog. It just all it
just all just hit me at once. Well, because like here's the thing.
If before well you say let go and let god, Yeah, well
the same thing. That's what I'm saying, let go, let go of
wanting the house, wanting the person, wanting the lover wanting. Maybe that
person that you're banging your head against the wall isn't the right person. But
go back to what you want. I want, I want connection. I
want ease and flow with somebody. I want these things. It'll happen.
It just may not happen the way you're expecting it to. But it could
be even better. Probably will be better. Do you know what I'm saying?
Right? And I'm saying the same thing, just in a different way.
I had some house whatever, but stop banging your head against the wall
and try and try and just no. I had a thought and then Kevin
derailed because I thought about what he said about tribute to you, and I'm
like, okay, now how do I how do I transition out of that?
But what was interesting to me was about a week ago, I had
a physical right and you what's it? Yeah? So what happened was so
I've had some I've had some health scares the last couple of years, but
everything worked out well, you know, and everything turned out fine. But
the doctor goes, all right, we're gonna check your moles. I go,
I've never really had those checked. All right, it shouldn't take long.
And I'm like, all of a sudden, I'm noticing moles that I've
never noticed before. They've always been there, but all of a sudden,
now I'm conscious of it because they put they put it, puts it in
your head right right, all of a sudden, Well, you buy a
white car and now you're setting all these others that new? Is that new?
Yeah? Is that? No? None more new. But I don't
remember seeing you last week thinking that you needed something to move from your face
because it looked normal. So I'm wondering, like, how how microscopic was
is that they noticed it? Because I didn't. I noticed it, Okay,
So I I because that's what scared me, is that I don't notice
anything on your face that was unusual for you need to have surgery. That's
what scares me. Oh does that make sense? Yeah? Because you noticed
it, But I mean I none of them are also had a trade medical
doctory to know what you're looking for. You might have just thought it was
a bumper or herb or something or nothing or nothing or is it or nothing?
You know what I'm saying. Yes, that's why it's like, okay,
all right, So I looked at Yeah, well everybody you should probably
be looked at. They'll tell you. I So I go every six months
and then when there was the transition to doing this and I didn't have health
insurance anymore. I went in for an appointment and they said, oh,
I had new health insurance. We don't take this health insurance and I said
okay. I said, well, then can I pay cash for today?
And they said no, because it has to go through insurance. They're like,
I'm sorry, we can't see you. So this person I had gone
to for well over a decade and had actually saved my life because she found
what she believed to be a melanoma, which is the deadly cancer, and
said, had she let it go to when you would normally a dermatologists go
yeah, that's all right, you better go have that look at she thinks
it would have been too late because it was so close to your sinuses and
all this stuff. So I went to the same guy ten years ago who
removed this thing and got it out and it was got clean borders, no
problem. And he said to me, man, it's so small. He
goes, I don't know. She may be right, but I wouldn't call
it a melanoma yet. That's what he said. She said melanoma okay,
but either way, wonderful. So now I'm like, what do I do?
Well, I got new insurance and I I'd like most people, you
get caught up. I procrastinated, and finally I'm like, man, this
thing on my lip is weird and it seems to be growing and it's like
this, I don't like it. So I found I went to exactly where
the doctor who told me that, Like that doctor's office said right across will
take your new insurance. They'll take it. You should go there. Well,
I did nothing right. I was so much embarrassed when I laughed,
because you're like, oh, sorry, get out, you know what I
mean, that's what it felt like. It wasn't the case. It wasn't
the case, and I understand the medical stuff. So I finally went over
to this doctor and she did possibly a more thorough exam than the other doctor.
I mean, like you know, naked, naked everything. And she
goes, yeah, I think that is probably a basal cell. But on
my above my lep really small, but it was starting to bubble up a
little bit. And yes, so I went and she they did a biopsy.
She goes, it is and this was October, and she said,
we'll get you in and she goes, would you go see doctor Brown?
I said, yeah, I've gone to him before. She goes, I
think he's excellent. They'll remove it. They you know, do something we
can't do in the office. They got to get clean borders and all that.
Well, that was October. They couldn't. He was booked out till
March. So I got on a waiting list thinking I would get in and
I didn't. Nothing ever happened, and here we are in March. So
I got it done and I don't know. Well, I was sitting at
my doctor's office last week because I had that whole congestion thing going on,
and I finally went to the doctor and I'm just sitting there waiting for my
turn to be called, and somebody's on the phone. They're like, yeah,
we're taking new patients. We're booking out that in March of twenty twenty
five. Yeah, you know, like really yeah, oh yeah, I
I but the alisairs system is not broken at all. I woke it up.
I woke up with puffy eyes a few years ago, really puffy eyes,
and I thought maybe it was a cash you or something that I had.
So because I'd never had cash eyes. Oh so I work. I
had because my boss used to have like stacks and stuff. So I had
some cashes all of a sudden, next thing, you know, my eyes
are huge. Yeah. So I go to the doctor and they prescribe PREDNA
zone and they go, we're gonna have you speak to an allergy doctor.
Okay, So the earliest we could get you in, and now this was
in September of twenty nineteen. The onliest we could get you in is July
of twenty twenty. I'm like, uh okay, yeah, and they're on
all the test. Now you're not allergic to anything, like, well,
let what happened? We don't know? Yeah, I don't know, but
I had to wait like nine months to find out that. Now you're fine.
Yeah. I went two months ago for my colon oscar be pre screen
whatever thing that I can't We're schedule and it's gonna be sometime in the of
June. Yeah, okay, great, I got the medication for it already,
that came in like two days after I was there. But like,
yeah, that's not gonna get lost. But I had my a fib.
I had to wait three months before I could see a cardiologist. Really yeah
wow, yeah, no, rush, Well, I mean the thing is
is because it probably isn't going to kill you. You're young, you know,
but it's funny you bring this up. We don't worry about it.
This is a story from Phoenix, Arizona. It is goes back to COVID,
but there's a lawsuit and you'll hear why in this update tonight from the
ABC fifteen investigators. Caught on camera Phoenix firefighters denying a sick woman an ambulance
ride to the hospital. Let's be honest, all right, So hang on,
I'm going to start again. So they're denying her a ride to the
hospital. She has COVID. Okay, but you're bringing up all the being
booked out for months, staff shortages. ABC fifteen's airing of that video prompted
a fire department investigation, and our senior investigative reporter Melissa Blazius is following up
getting a copy of that final report, showing policy of violations and for the
first time, answering why a firefighter would talk someone out of an ambulance.
Okay, talk somebody. You gotta hear this guy when he's talking, because
it's through the doorbell ring cam. Okay, it's August twenty twenty one.
Heidi Pate has COVID, just wants the hospital. Got she wants to go
to the hospital. This is what her all right, she wants to go
to the hospital. And it's her son talking through the thing and they said,
do you want to take her? Okay? Doorbell camera captured a Phoenix
fire Captain, paramedic and firefighter EMT talking to her son after responding to a
nine to one one call without bringing an ambulance for Heidi. That amulets fifty
hundred bucks. I mean, we'll take her. You got fifty hundred bucks.
I know what I'd like to do a fifty hundred bucks, Heidi explained
to me. Now there's this whole investigation this woman wanted. She wasn't even
given the So it doesn't sound like they denied it, but it sounds like
they're trying to sort of talk you out of it. And I wonder if
they're talking you out of it because they're short staffed and she's not dying at
the moment, she's still breathing. You. Yes, she probably does need
to get to the hospital, but why spend fifteen hundred you take her?
Yeah? Take her? Yeah. Now, this woman's point is I need
someone to stay with my younger daughter. That was gonna be what my son
was gonna do. He's like of driving AIDS seventeen, sixteen, seventeen,
I think, or maybe the twenty. So I wanted to just go by
the ambulance. That way he could stay home with her, keep her calm
that her son needed to remain at home to care for her young daughter.
But instead he ends up driving Heidi to the hospital where she's admitted for pneumonia.
I wanted to be treated with resped Current Weather Survey Emergency ABC fifteen has
covered multiple cases of ambulance denials in the city over the past. So I
don't know if that if that's happening around here or not. But when you
were bringing up, both of you guys bringing up and me right, I
was October was almost six months. Five months are tough because my wife had
a situation two summers ago and we called she thought she was having a heart
attack like Dan over here, and we called the ambulance and it took We
had two fire trucks there within a matter of a couple seconds, but the
ambulance took like twenty five minutes to get there. Just because there's no grease.
There's no grease ambulance anymore, so it comes from wherever, and this
one came from Hilton. A lot of people think. Then there was another
call that came in the next closest ambulance was in like North Chilai, for
like the Greece area. If you're having an actual heart attack, you could
be fucked. So I worked with a guy. Yeah, I worked with
a guy who Yeah, I know a guy who's whose wife called the ambulance.
She found him dead, and the ambulance in Rondequoix took about twenty five
minutes to get there. I know a gentleman who owns a baseball team in
Geneva and Newark, and he was telling me that he used to be able
to rely on the ambulance to you know, to buy sponsorships. And he
said they had to stop because they weren't getting paid. Because this is during
the heroin epidemic, right, Yeah, where people were odean and they weren't
getting paid. Well, let me ask you that for Little League in baseball
games your kids don't play, but hockey, do they have an ambulance?
No, high schools they were not for like high school hockey, but I
know football they have to have an ambulance. They there was some scheduling issues
this year, Yeah, because they couldn't get an ambulance. Right, I
never even I just I didn't. I never thought of that until just now.
Yeah, my sport that requires, I think an ambulance. But I
think all the pro sports like the Nighthawks, the Amerks, the Red Wings,
I don't have to have an ambulance cho high school level, but that
college. I thought when I was a kid in my Jerkwater town, when
I played little league, I thought they had an ambulance at all the fields.
When I played in a jerk watertown too, and it was only just
football games. Yeah, we never played baseball. Well, there was always
one for the football games. But I thought when I played little league there
would be an ambulance sort of in the circle at the Stanford town Hall.
Okay maybe, and we're going back, and don't forget there wasn't. But
that was back when all the towns had all their volunteer ambulance. They had
volunteer ambulances, and literally across the street from the ball field was the firehouse.
Right, So that that makes sense now that I'm thinking about it,
and I think they came down to the town wreck sometimes too. The baseball
field in Greece is right behind the firehouse. Yeah, did they hit a
special butt when some would hit a home run? But so no, you
got a free hot dog. Did you get a free hot dog? You
got a free hot dog if you hit a home run. Yeah, and
then the coach would take everybody to Campies, which is Campanella's, which was
for soft ice cream and stuff. I love the league six years in a
rowing home runs dad, But wow, that's that that's a strange thing,
is it, Because we're not getting volunteers anymore, like they've been priced out.
There's just private It's there's what two private companies now a MS and Monroe
And yeah, yeah, I think they just have taken over. I mean,
I know Victor still has Chila still. I think Pittsford has a or
in Bushnell's base and I think that well, I know they're all volunteers.
You fired apartment, but form but what about ambulance. But do you know
anybody who's a volunteer fireman your age right now? I know one that was
a volunteer. He just got you just graduated the academy, just got hired
full time. As a firefighter. Do you know anybody your age around here?
Not not talking Uh Silver Creek, that's a volunteer fire person. My
ex wife was your exual. But I don't know anybody else. Okay,
I don't know anybody that's I think volunteer that I know. You know some
guys who were like cheap. I don't think I know anybody volunteer, which
is sort of a scary thing when you think about it, because as much
as I would always joke they were sellersh safer when I was a kid.
Uh, it's some funny that they had heard one in my town. But
you need those people at least a lot of the smaller towns, like I
know Hilton has a big volunteer for us. Yeah, five or six an
actual pain everybody else back because you'll see you'll get a call. We went
to a flour hockey game for Brady and there was a call that came in
and you just saw seventy eight cars just pile into the fire department. Yeah,
parking anywhere they can, didn't hop it on the trunk. There was
Uh. Well, when we that that gig, I got basically booted from
at the fire exempt Hall a lot of those guys do work full time but
then also volunteer in their town. So a lot of we're retired too,
Yeah, retired, and then they go back and volunteer, which I think
is great and in a way now that I go, well, if you're
going to talk about, maybe you should do it. I don't know.
Back home, they had to turn people away. They're like, we have
too many, Yeah, we don't have enough fire they're doing victory out but
yeah, but like this, but it's like a badge of honor though.
Yeah, they love doing it. Yes, that's the thing. But that's
interesting with the with the ambulance, it's the cost and I don't know that
you have enough EMS workers and the ambulance, cause that's a brutal wall to
get too. Ambulance used to be they charge you by the mile they I
was always five hundred dollars on my insurance, I thought in the past.
Now I don't know, fifteen hundred dollars like this guy to me almost sounds
like I'm almost close to thirty three hundred. Yeah, and they charged his
mileage too. Really. Yeah. To go from my mom's house to Unity,
which was an eight minute drive all day long six in an ambulance with
with the sirens going. Well, there's a very famous story about Jerry Lawler
and and Andy Kaufman wrestling in Memphis. Andy Kaufman, of course, this
was chronicle in the movie Man in the Moon about Andy Kaufman and at one
point he told Jerry, okay, pile drive me. Jerry's like, uh,
okay, so he pile drives him safely. Well, Andy makes it
look like he broke his neck. Yes, and he tells Jerry, give
me an ambulance. Unity an was gonna cost three hundred dollars. I'll pay
for it. He goes okay, and they bring in the ambulance. Yeah,
he pays him cash. Next day, Jerry goes to I really hurt.
She goes, no, you think they bought it. He goes,
yeah, I think they bought it because why you just did it for effect
to go tell yeah, because I just wanted to sell the idea that I
have my neck broken by you. I was the big bad guy. You're
the hero. And he goes, yeah, I'll pay it. I'll pay
the ambulance. Because he was a you know, a rich, you know
comedian at that point, he had he was famous, but he wanted to
sell It's so bad that he paid the three hundred dollars for an ambulance back.
That was a lot of money. Yeah, well, now it's I
got I thought it was five hundred on my insurance after insurance would cover up
to and then you were left with a deductible of like five hundred on the
insurance I had. I don't know. Now we got five insurance and we
were respondible. Should we make a pack then if one of us has to
go to the er that the other two will drive. Yes, okay,
yeah, we know what it's gonna be. It's gonna be Dan Dan all
right, Well, speaking of that, we will take a moment big changes
in Buffalo n segment. Well Dan have a heart attack over this or will
he be happy? Elsa? I'm coming. We'll find out next. But

We've bilified a voicemail anytime. I'm a Victor Chrysler Dodge Jeep ramline at five
eight five two o six eighty eight sixty six. My wife and your wife
got to have a sleepover and fall asleep NCIS. I never knew it was
a thing until you just said it was a thing. Love you guys.
Sure and be sure to like and subscribe to Bilified wherever you get your podcast.
Danny, would you be in for that? Yes, cis the Case
of the Scissoring Wives at CIS Rochester. Yeah, that would be weird.
Yeah, because it's on ion. And then here's what's happened is that it's
on in the days of of like you know, streaming and bulk watching television
binge watching. I should say they now just put like episode after episode on
every channel, right, so Ion has a bunch, and then when Ion's
done, then another channel's going to have a bunch, and they alternate certain
days, so there's not a night of the week where NCIS isn't binged by
some channel. Oh really, so yeah, so I pretty much watched the
entire series in the span of a week. Do you like those shows?
It's grown on me. It'll suck in. Yeah, it'll suck yet,
but I don't make a point to watch it, although I do really enjoy
this new cast. Gary Cole's like the new Boss and he's so much cooler
than the old Boss. Gibbs. Mark Harmon was Gary Cole in Talladega Nights.
Yeah. He played the dad. Yeah first your last. Yeah.
He also played the guy in Office Space, Office Space, he was in
Uh. I think he played in There's a whole bunch of things. The
Guy's been in everything. But what's the lawyer movie? That? I really
a lawyer movie? The Lawyer show that I really liked, Suits Suits.
He plays the DA, the district attorney. He's great, he's a great
act fantastic, always gets work. Yeah, and he's cool too, Yes,
yes, he's really cool. Like like the last Mark Carmon was kind
of like he played this guy named Gibbs. Gibbs was kind of like he
was a no nonsense boss or Gary Coles, Like he's the cool boss.
How but he gets the job done. How old is Mark Carmon? Can
you look that up? I think Gary Cole is also in Dodgeball. Oh
that's right, he was like Gary Coles. Gary Coles had a career of
Yes, he's done it. He plays the principal in Family Guy. He's
been everything from comedy to this. Yes, pretty serious. Because Mark Carmon
was a star quarterback at U c l A and like a really strikingly handsome
guy. His father played at Michigan. Yes, and then I don't know
why he didn't go pro. I don't know if he didn't have the opportunity
or he just was looking to get into acting. I don't know. If
he would have gone pro, he would have been around the Jim Plunkett era,
like the late seventies right early eighties that I mean, but so that's
it's well back then. I mean, like but he was a star.
Well, remember like Terry Terry, Bradshaw was the backup to one of the
Robertson dad from seventy three from Mark Herman Mark Harmon seventy three. Okay,
yeah, he just recently left the show. Looks great, he does.
Yeah, But the thing is, like, uh, mister Robertson was actually
the started quarterback at Louisiana. Stay. No, well we're not Louisiana,
one of Louisiana schools, And the reason he didn't go pro is because they
interfered with hunting season. Yeah, like wow, nowadays it'd be like a
no brainer. Ye, I'm going to the NFL. Back then, it
was it was a decision you had to make. Well, I think you're
right, because didn't a lot of the Well I don't know about then when
Bradshaw played, But I thought some guys had off season jobs. Oh yeah,
they all did, yeah, doing stuff. Speaking of that, the
Buffalo Bills are set to release Jordan Poyer. But that's not all, folks.
They are also talking that they're gonna release Mitch Morse days Center. Yep.
So I wonder if is there a chance that Jason Kelcey comes out of
retirement and he was a hit in the stands at Buffalo. Would he possibly
be in the field. I don't think the answer is yes to that at
all. He does throw a table yesterday was on fire. I don't know
if you saw that. No, I didn't. Ye, he jumped through
a table that was on fire. Defensive back Sarah Neil, wide receiver Deontay
Hardy, though Hearty did Okay, he didn't do much. He had that
one big play against Miami. Oh, that's right, just like had those
two big plays against the Patriots two years ago. Uh. And Tredavious White
is going to be gone. Yeah, that's a big one. So Morson
morson White are the big ones. I got breaking news here too from Jay
Glazer if you want this one. Yeah, Bills are releasing Greg Connors as
well as Tom can say. But Craig's got to go. Wow, that's
gonna be that's gonna hurt thirty million dollars league wide increase in the salary cap.
But the Bills are still nearly forty million dollars over. So with this
and the restructuring of von Miller's deal, that puts them at save some almost
thirty six million dollars, Is that right? Yeah, Yeah, they're break
they're breaking, they're breaking past that. So now they're going to take care
of all that. So they were about forty million, forty three million in
the hole, so they're about to be about break even or plus minus three
million dollars at least exact. So well, No, the story is that,
like they've structured the deal so next year, if they want to get
rid of Digs free and clear, they could do that after next season,
so and it won't really hurt them too much. Okay, does this mean
like they're all in on the offense? Not necessarily? Does it mean so
are they going to go out and get a receiver? Are they looking at
a look, there's quite a few receivers there were draft face just to make
the draft. I think yeah, they have Ale Yeah, a little little
free agency. Oh yeah, they have eleven picks in the draft as of
right now, and I think that they're going to trade up for guys that
they like or trade back if there's a lot of depth and positions they need.
Clearly they need center, right, I mean mc connor. McGovern's been
moved over to center, but he's the only center on the roster at this
point, right, So you're gonna have to have some depth there. They
need receivers, period, They're gonna need safeties, and they're gonna need corners
and linebackers. So they got the work cut out for him. I mean,
it's but you have Josh Allen, So as long as you have a
quarterback, you're gonna be a playoff team. But I mean it may not
be the year that you're gonna go to the Super Bowl? Is this an
overstatement? If I say that Josh Allen is one of the best two or
three quarterbacks in the NFL currently, it's a fact. Yeah, that's I
think, so, I really do, and I would put it in this
order Mahomes. And then there's a tie between Alan and Burrow. When Burrow
is healthy. When Burrough's healthy, and he doesn't always state what you know
that that's not entirely his fault. You need to get some guys in front
of them, you know what I mean? Right, I think that was
a lot of the problem for Russell Wilson. It's like that that line that
first seasons, like the fuck you said, nobody? Yeah, that's the
other thing too. Promising receivers just didn't pan out, So what do what
do we think with receiver wise? Because I thought I was kind of hoping
Mike Evans, but then they resigned him in Tampa Bay. But I was
kind of the draft, the draft, but the draft has some really great
receivers. Was it a receiver who broke this the record for I think you
hit four two to two? Yeah, that is in the combat? Was
that neighbors or was that I didn't I didn't count the name he wanted didn't
want to combine either. His name was speedy as Ship. Okay, speedy
as Ship. Well. I kind of like these and if you're a Bills
fan, I think this is a good thing. Sentimental. It sucks sentimentally
because White and Mortes were about the first team to help them get back to
the playoffs. Yes, White was the draft pick that they that they drafted
and he was from its first draft and he was fantastic. It was a
lockdown corner and a lot of these guys like poyor too and all were fan
favorites, did a lot of charity stuff for for uh yeah, oh yeah.
Poyer was a huge free agent signing. When they signed him, that
was a big get. He and like a hyde. But I thought they
brought a lot of charity work. Oh yeah, they're the great community guys.
Do they do the balls out bowling? They might? I don't know.
I know that. I think Payer had a softball tournament. I think
there's a softball game in a softball game Buffalo State. Balls out bowling is
something else? Okay, that's a naked bowling Oh okay, yeah, it's
uh, that's for charity. It's in Pittsburgh. Are Naturalists or hosting another
balls out bowling event where you can bowl in the nude? Oh wow?
April twenty eighth. The event is for anyone eighteen and over the the neon
lights. Who's the group sponsoring this? Pittsburgh Area Naturalists Found Pittsburgh said something
else? What do you think? I said? I thought, I said,
Arian, I'm like, what like that? That's an odd group having
a naked bowling tournament. Again, I mean, if you're really proud of
your skin, nudity is required, with the exception that women can wear bottoms.
Now, I want you to picture bowling. Do you know what I'm
saying? Like the bending over the whole thing, you know it's all and
why wouldn't you let the guy wear bottoms? His balls are bouncing around this
stuff, But it's called balls out bowling. Think about the air in that
place with the on the ball. How about this? How about how about
that scene in Kingpin where Randy Quaid looks at what he Harelson goes, geez,
mister Munson, it's amazing to be in the presence of so many great
athletes and you see this fat guy drinking a beer. Now imagine them naked.
Okay, that's that's what bowlers typically look like. Those running the event
say nudism does not equal consent and harassment and it will not be taken lightly.
Violators will be asked to lead. No photography or video is allowed.
The event is a ticket event. No tickets will be sold at the door.
And they also say sexual activity is not permitted, So you can't talk
shit, you can't get a blowjob. What the hell's one of this thing?
Well, but this is how they live though, they're nudists. Like
we knew a guy. We were with a guy who was a nudist.
He was an engineer. That dude, Yeah that he like an owl.
Yeah, he lived like a nudist. He lived like a he was a
newdist at home. He was a newdist favorite. He was a wicked and
he was a neudist, lived like you're a newdist. He waited. Yes,
he was a wicked and then his wife died. Yeah. Yeah,
they were nudists. They were nudists. Yes, well there you go.
That's why you don't want to go to these things. Nice guy. Yeah,
yeah, but they were newdists. Huh, he's an engineer and remove
your shorts. So it's just like this newdiest people that are uh, I
don't know, Well, there's there's the newest place around here. Okay,
down it's like new Haven or something or I don't know, it's not it's
out in three one five. No, no, no, no, I've
never heard of a new Haven in three one five. Now that there's something
out there, I might have it wrong, but it's like it's a newdist
resort and you can go. And they had it and it looks like,
honest to god, they had everybody in the pool, and I go,
I want to see the water level when they all get out, because it's
all these big fat people that we're sitting around the pool. But it's yeah,
nudes, you can go down for the day you pay, you can
come in and hang out. Wow. Yeah, there's uh Morovia, New
York. Yes, and there's also Sparkers New York, which looks like it's
near Ithaca. Yeah. No, Morovia is the one full tan Sun Club
and Empire Haven. Empire Haven, that's what it is. That's right,
catch Moro Morovia. That's like, and you don't I don't think you have
to be completely naked, but the weird thing. Yeah, but if you're
gonna do that, then you kind of have to play by the rules,
don't you know, because if you're not solar eclipse, because if you're not,
oh yeah you will because if you're not playing by a black hole,
because it sounds like if you're not going in and being fully nude, and
I would never do this, but then you're if you're not playing by their
rules, it's almost like you're trying to gawk. What's the point of going
you know? Or or maybe you're trying to test it out. You're uncomfortable,
you know what I mean, You're sitting by yourself, you know,
how are you to test it out? Unless you take your clothes off?
Well, you get down to a speedo or something, or maybe you getting
fish is gonna go yeah, yeah, put a sock on it. Or
Bill Moran right through the halls of Saint John Fishing University at the what was
the dorm doll Dorsey Hall. That's right. I wonder this is how the
steel is gonna lure Russell Wilson to come to town with this newdest thing.
Maybe maybe balls out. I don't think he could do it, but no,
but he would maybe he can support it. He could, you know,
he could. Maybe he would send Sierra. That would be it would,
yes, it would a lot of boners. Speaking of teams, So
Oakland A's are they moving to They are because they put out renderings. I
had heard rumblings, but they put out renderings and then I saw like their
fan base went crazy and they had to turn off the comments section on their
Well, they're pretty hurt that they've they've lost the Raiders now they're losing the
A's. But if you watch the A's over the years, there's nobody in
that stadium in the and the reason is because it's literally a cesspool. It's
been described as a literal cesspool. Like they don't even like the sewage.
It's like ross sewage crap. But really, yeah, it's terrible. And
the gave that county, that town, every opportunity to people, and they
just would they wouldn't do. What is the what is the what's the name
of the It's not Candlestick, No, it's I remember Ala Alameda County Colisseum,
but I remember what the old name was. Okay, I remember when
was it the A's. Was I watching the A's when they had the earthquake?
Yeah, same stadium? Well no, no, that was the Giants
in the A's. It was the Bay Area Series, but the earthquake was
a Candlestick earthquake was in San Francisco. That was okay, I remember,
but that was the Giant's beat the Giants in eighty nine, four games to
one. I think, wow, Well they go to sun City and there
it's an odd looking stadium, but I kind of like it. It's almost
like a parachute canopy over top to keep the sun out, but you've got
open air to cool things off. And yeah, it really is a cool
it's an open field stadium. Because Vegas is hot, well the plan or
not it's hot as well. There were two right, they looked like they
had, and I wonder if they run looks like the Sydney air conditioning.
Yes it does. I wonder if they I don't know what they do.
Well, if anybody could run air conditioning in an open air area, it's
a stadium in Vegas because if you go through Vegas, man, people are
smoking in the casinos and you have no idea it's so well ventilated, you
know, like if I've been Vegas a couple of times, it's one big
mall, but it's awesome. And then if you go outside on the Fremont
Street, Fremont Street is covered. Even though it's outside, it's it's covered.
They have that zipline too, right, right, So I mean,
if anybody could pull it off, it's Vegas. But I actually like,
that's gonna make me want to go to Vegas more often that there's a baseball
stadium there. Yes, you go watch live baseball. That's awesome. That's
fantastic team because they've got three of the four now. But that's what they're
talking about too, is bringing the NBA uh to to Vegas. So who
would go? Uh? Well, Oklahoma City Thunder Memphis Grizzlies might be a
team that would go, Uh, that's a possibility. New Orleans possibly,
Yeah, New Orleans. They've had they've had trouble, they've had trouble keeping
people. New Orleans would make sense. The only problem is is that their
ownership is the same as the Saints, so they'd have to sell the team
and then somebody would have to relocate them to Vegas. But there's a few
NBA teams that are losing money that could that could make a move. I
totally see that. When you go to Vegas, do you see a lot
of like people that are just really cheesy, kind of cool people. What
do you say? See everybody? You see and you see all walks of
life from every continent in America, in the world rather than the world,
every continent in America, even some penguins. You'll see everybody down there,
and you'll see I mean like like broke people, poor people, rich people.
I mean, you get every walk of life. And everyone's having a
good time too. You don't see a person who's upset, even like at
the when they're losing their money. They're having a good time. There's a
lot of energy, right. It probably feels good when people are cheering and
the bells are going off and the whistles. Everybody's kind of rooting for each
other. Yeah, the other half r in the bag. You know what's
funny, though, is that you don't see a lot of people ain't drinking
though, No, I didn't see. I mean, people have cocktails and
stuff, but no one's inebriated in Vegas. It's almost like it's there's too
much to lose. I was drugged for four days. All right, Well,
uh, won't take a moment. Buffalo Bill's making those changes. They
had to make these moves they did. The idea was it's not a bad
move because if you start like extending people and restructuring contracts, eventually you'll end
up with the Rams or you gotta pay the bill, right, and at
least the Rams want a Super Bowl. Imagine if they had, they would
have had to pay that bill without winning a super Bowl and start over.
So, yeah, it sucks that you're gonna lose Trey White, sucks you're
gonna lose Mitch Morse, but you know what you gotta, you gotta.
But you never know too, they may come back on a different deal.
Yeah, No, I think I think, yeah, I think you should
retire Jesus, he will get more still cushions. Yeah, but he's still
he still got a little juice left. It was a surprise that they released
him. So he's gonna catch on with somebody. Uh. An encounter with
a stranger. I came upon this on BuzzFeed and will reuse you some of
the weird things that people have had that an encounter with a stranger. And
I'm thinking, Kevin, if there's anybody at this table that has had an
encounter with a stranger that would be memorable, who do you think it would
be? Who would have a story. It's always going to be Dan.
It's always gonna be Dan, I would have said, Stephanie Eye. We
will that's true. She's not at the table though. We will find out
next. But first circul law because the weekend's right around the corner, and

a voicemail anytime I'm a Victor Chrysler Dodge geep ram line at five eighty five
two o six eighty eight sixty six. God damn it, Bill, I'm
a little disappointed. I'm disappointed in you. I'm disappointed in Kevin, especially
because I sometimes even though he's a Patriots fan, you can't be the voice
of reason. You all are expecting a dog to keep somebody's dick, hampire
to be shipped out in the same uh, in the same shape it freaking
went in. Why don't you eat a steak and see when it comes out
there, and be sure to like and subscribe to Bilified wherever you get your
podcasts. I am going to defend myself. I have seen puppies eat,
the dogs eat uh No, a sock. I told you it. The
jusc came out my dad had the knot was stuck, so you had to
pull it out of the duck. Oh, that not was stuck. Yes,
I wish the dog knock in thek then in the knot. Hey.
By the way, today is a National Orio Cookie Day. Oh okay,
I guess Dad's gonna have a sleep when he gets on ass gosh. I
I now, I never really was a huge fan of Oreo cookies. And
one of the reasons I wasn't was this girl always brought them uh in third
grade, and she had braces in third grade, and they would get stuck
and she'd smile you and I hated it. Grossbeer. I can remember name
I've done down Osmond. I thought it was gonna be that your mom,
mom bought the cheap stuff. She bought them hydrox ones. Oh no,
that was my grandmother terrible. And my grandmother then would send into things,
and we had hydrox socks. If you sent back enough of the things you
got, you got you got hydrox socks. So we all got hydrox socks.
Yeah, and she thought she was doing the family of favors. I
just bought Grady seven eleven socks because he loves slurpies. I bought him seven
eleven sox. That's funny, awesome, Yeah, that's funny. That's cute.
The hydrox socks. I think my mother gave birth to my sister wearing
hydrox. I'm not kidding. I'm pretty sure that that's true. Uh.
The the cookie founder's name is Sam Porcello was often referred to as mister Oreo
Sam J. P after he introduced this sugary snack. The original recipe called
for pork fat. How about that, So it's pork fat between the cookies.
It's a fucking heart attack, dude. I'd love to know how long
Pricello lived. Do you think he's rolling over in his grave with all the
new like double stuff, the Mega stuff, the red velvet, the lemon
red velvet. Dude. Oh yeah, see, I like the vanilla.
I think I had vanilla. I got I ate some edibles and then had
Oreo cookies and I couldn't stop eating, like the half and half, one
side chocolate, one side vanilla. Oh I haven't had that. Yeah,
a lot of oo oh I like that. You know who has a healthier
version? Paul Newman? Yeah, oh yeah, sure, it's boring,
all right? What year did double Stuffed debut? What year did doubles?
Nine seventy three? You're the closest seventy five? Wow, I didn't know
that. The original recipe didn't change much over the years until their favorite double
stuff real cookie he was introduced. But lard was the central Lard was a
central ingredient making the Oriole cookie early in the day. Lard was big back
in the day. Yeah, still is at the waffle house. If you
go in to wafas, don't they just scoop it on there? Are you
aware of the ongoing cholesterol problem in this country? Oriole cookies are sold in
over one hundred countries outside of the United States. Can you name the four
other countries in the world where they are they it's one of the top five,
top five countries where they're sold United States number one, Canada. Canada
is fourth, China, number two, Spain. No, the other two
are hard to come up with. The other two members wayles, Oh my
god, shut the fuck up. Did you look? No, I just
get the number three. It's Venezuela. Oh my god. Something to look
forward to because there's nothing else to do in Venezuela. How do you know
you've never been there in the news all the time. I mean, it
can't be good. Uh, all right, So the United States, China,
Venezuela, Canada, there's one more. Number five, your booty,
Uruguay, Indonesia. Yeah right, but it'd be one that you wouldn't really
come up with. Yeah wow, just a little facts about the organ Now
here's the thing though, Like, do they have all the same ingredients that
they have in the United States? I believe so. I believe it's the
same cookies that they go around the world, because like if you take a
bottle of Hines in France and a bottle of Hinds. The United States,
the bottle of Wow only has like four In France only has like four or
five ingredients. I don't know the answer to that. You're right. Sometimes
they will adjust and depending on but I guess whatever their version of the FDA
would be, I'm not I'm not sure speaking of the FDA. I had
to do this for your own benefit. Remember last week we talked about soap.
Yeah, like Coast, Yes, Okay, I found Coast at Wegmans,
Yes, and Henrietta. I looked up Point and this it is.
It's at an eight. How to scale it one to ten? As far
as the cheaper, I'm set, the cheaper the soap, right, the
more poisonous it is. The fuck is this poison shit you're talking? I'm
telling you, like, if you go to this website or this app,
think Dirty, Think Dirty, it'll tell you, like if you're on the
bar code, like from a scale from zero to ten, how poisonous the
product is, Zero being not poisonous at all, Ten being the most poisonous
thing you can put on your body. Coast is in an eight. Do
you have the app on your phone right now? Yeah? I do?
Scan his water I think it's it's like cleaning products and stuff like that.
It's not. I don't think it does fine, I'm just I'm trying to
debunk this appro quick. I'm not trying to well, okay, I mean
this is all right, think dirty. All right, I'm gonna try to
scan and we'll see what it is. I don't think it does water.
But let's just just for the heck of it. Yes, please scan a
beauty or personal care product so it doesn't do water. Hold on, what's
the beauty product? Where do we have soap? We have soap? Oh,
we have soap. We have like down dish soap. Enhands out.
Okay, I actually I can show you see like this is all the stuff
that I scanned, see coast number eight. All right, So what what's
the best? The best is like that stuff that, oh gosh, the
expensive crap like the Doctor Squatch, which is like a three. Doctor Squatch
was a three. Yeah, maybe, which isn't bad. Maybe I'll buy
some dome like Dollar Shave Club shaving cream is like an eight. Yeah,
Jack Black's at a five. Old spices in anate that Sarah V stuff.
You gotta be careful with that. What about what about Dove. Yeah,
I used, I didn't measure done. Let me look at the dawn with
the dawn stuff. Let's see if like dawn registers. All right, down
here we go down on the scale. I'm pissed. I like Coast keep
using it. Don't let Danny dawn it says, I gotta like unlock it
with a free try off to pay for it so it won't show me like,
how how many do you get a day that are free? Or did
you already use up here? I think I might have just used my free
one. But let me do the Purel real quick and see if I can
get that. So you're not gonna get it pure L again free trial.
So it's it's it's not unlocked. So you all get so many freebies a
day. Well, I don't know. I'm trying to protect you, the
masses. I'm trying to protect you. He just had something removed off his
face. Basically, he's using Coast Coast. No, probably because I laid
in the sun as a kid, or down in the sun without sunscreen or
something else was on his face when he was young. Well, that could
be too, that could be too. That's right. So just looking at
my face, whipped cream cake encounter with a stranger. I'm gonna read these.
This is some weird thing, weird encounters. This was on BuzzFeed.
Sitting with a tender date, this person writes, I go to sip the
drink he just brought back. The waitress bumped into me, spilling it,
oologized profusely, then escorted me to the restroom to quote unquote clean up,
where she informed me the date had dropped something into my glass. Police were
on the way. Stranger probably saved my life. Huh, how weird would
that be? That that the first of all? That waitress that's where you
got a huge got to give her a huge tip. But how often do
we think people are dropping some kind of roofie in someone else's As a guy,
I've never thought about it. I never thought about it either, But
when I know somebody who has worked with we happened to him. Yes,
we do. I went home with a nasty headache after going with the grag
the other day. A new study published in the journal Psychology of Violence they
have a psychology for that psychology on Monday suggests drink spiking drugging someone by illicitly
slipping a drug like GHB or xanax into a xanax makes you sleepy. Yeah,
I know, maybe significantly more widespread than previous belief. Now they did.
They did a survey of six thousand students at three US universities. Four
hundred and sixty two people responded, and seven point eight percent self reported that
they had been drugged before. Wow, it seems a lot. It is
a lot, But I go, how do you know that it's not just
a hangover? What if this waitress is just a scorn lover of this gentleman
and he's bringing this new girl in to stick it to her. I don't
know, because they don't. They don't give you any more details in this
Reddit thing. So I'm assuming that the guy probably got arrested and she's telling
the truth. But you're right, I don't know. Of those who reported
that having been drugged, twelve point one percent reported being the victims of unwanted
sexual touching okay, because you're not able to resist as much, and five
point four percent reported that what study authors term for sexual intercourse, that would
be like having necrophilia, right, if it's somebody's on all xanaxt out,
Yeah, why would you want to do that. And I don't know what
GHB does, but I would assume something, just as so much every episode
of Lot orders for you. You'll figure it out real that or at cis
non ciss crimes against the baby. That's more like sexual stuff. Gotcha,
Yeah, I had no idea, so so. University of South Kindlin Women's
Studies professor Suzanne Swan led the study, told the website broadly, I guess
it's called that. She, like many long assumed this type of infraction was
extremely rare, and she said I had no idea that drink spiking was happening
until students started bringing it up from time to time. Since there there's hardly
any research in this area, I decided to get some data and figure out
what was going on. Wow, that's pretty scary. That's very pretty scary.
But I've never been as a guy. I don't think we think about
it, right. I wouldn't think about it, do you ever? I
wouldn't even know where to get the stuff. Well no, no, I'm
saying, like or do it. I don't even mean that. I don't
mean like we'd be the ones to do it. I'm saying I don't ever
to think that my drink could gets spot well, nobody's roofy. If anybody
puts anything in a drink, it's a dark Yeah, it'd be like a
prank, like putting, like putting, fouting, farting powder in your in
your father's coffees. It'd be like one of those types of things. It
would be like trying to like seduce a dude, you know, I mean,
we're trying to steal their money. Maybe I don't. Maybe. I
mean there was those stupid urban legends about like taking a medical students will try
to remove a kidney. But we all know that's bs. But I mean
that do we, Dan, did you believe that for a while? No,
did you believe that conspiracy? Somebody said that if Fisher once said,
we all were like, come on, get on, that's bullshit. But
ship in a glitter box in high schools not. But yeah, I mean,
like I don't think of that stuff. I was told by my cousin
before I left the Coffer College. He goes, you have a drink in
your hand, you put it down, don't plan on picking it back up.
That's a good point because it looks someone could spit in it, do
anything. Yeah, I mean, I used to love to go to Padam's
and I would I would stand right next to the wall, pee in a
cup and then put it up on They had that thin little and I used
to it was the color of beer. And I used to love to watch
somebody, Oh my god, it's warm, and then I start laughing.
I would pee in cups and leave it there because it would look like because
that is the level. There was a social media back then. Yeah,
a pre med student, what you might be. No one drank it.
I wouldn't let anybody drink it. And I think I did take it to
not always, but I think I did take it to the bathroom and flush
it. Yeah, but I used to. I used to write there and
pat him whip it out when no one was looking, and people there were
no rules of pat. If you get arrested for not drinking or is whipping
your dick out in public, well that's true too, that's true too.
Pre med student comes by, Hey Bill, that's awfully foamy. You may
want to drink more wine. There's ale on you. I got a here's
another one. I got in an elevator at a mall with a woman about
twice my age. When I was twenty, we stood in silence to the
third floor. When she went to get off the elevator, she turned to
me and smiled and said, have a nice life, and we walked in
opposite direction. So I think about that woman often because of that line.
Could did you ever have a straight like? Well, think about this.
If if somebody, like a stranger says that to you, that'd be weird,
but you wouldn't really, it wouldn't bother you. But if you had
a friend that got off the elevator goes have a nice life, you'd be
like, what, I'm not gonna talk to you on Tuesday? What's going
on? Yeah, Dian, I had a teacher once, a student teacher.
I said that too. She was a music class. We knew it
was her last day, so I didn't know what else to say to her.
I said, well, have a nice life. And you said that
to who? To the student teacher because it was her last daid teaching and
I said have a nice life. And I didn't know that I was saying
anything wrong. I was in eighth grade. Yeah, I thought that would
be appropriate because I was never gonna see this teacher it might be And she
was like, oh, thanks, thanks Dan. Well it's kind of sad.
Yeah, well I didn't realize that. What was meant We're back to
Dan being on too. What's the stranger good looking in this? In this?
I don't know. This is all that's written on on the BuzzFeed,
So I don't want to, like, we can assume all the other stuff.
I have no idea. Here's one though, that'll freak you out a
little bit. This is pretty good. Does it make you wish you want
to talk to her? You would? You would have talked to her if
she'd know this person what I have a nice life. Yeah. Well,
now I'm like wondering, like what what Okay, what does she know that
I don't know? Yeah? Yeah? Or was she really there? Or
was she Yeah, it's just something that this person said. They person got
roof feed in this one from the last one. All right. I was
working a service counter in retail in nineteen ninety eight, expecting my first baby.
A young man, very skinny and dressed in brown came in, stood
several feet back from the counter and looked at me. I greeted him a
few times, and he didn't react, you know, like, hey,
can I help you hello. After several minutes, he came forward and said,
very quickly, you're six months pregnant and you're going to have a boy.
The dad's not around, but that's okay. You got this. The
baby's coming very soon early, but don't worry. He'll do good. Before
I could say anything, he left the store. He was right about everything.
Wow, no kidding. Yeah, that would freak out. Yeah,
that would freak me. That would freak you, That would freak you.
It was like an angel walking in. Think would you think angel or would
you think devil? That would if they were true, I think it would
be a devil wouldn't want to approach me. Somebody with a spirit, they
don't want to approach. But but an angel, possibly they're telling me to
warm me about something. Yeah, but I mean it's gonna be okay in
a way. Is that nice to know? It is nice to know she
made up? Of course you do, of course you do. You have
to believe in this stuff, Kevin. People believe in anything. No,
I mean no, say people like, don't just share this stuff just to
make stuff up just for well, I'm not saying it's it's religious. For
what this is on buzzfeeding. Maybe right, they could be making it up
completely. But I'm trying to think. I know I've had a counters with
strangers, but I can't nothing that was super memorable that I can think of.
I I do know of a couple of good white night one night stands
for me? Did you have a couple good nice stands? And strangers?
So I don't believe. Did you ever not know someone's name that you slept
with? You didn't even know their name? No, I don't think so,
Okay, Danny my uh no, you knew everybody's name, Yeah,
but you knew their whole backstory. Come on, my wife told me a
story. I'm not a fan of mediums or anything like that, but or
they call media, I don't know, but anyway, medium a medium.
She was at an event once and this one guy who happened to be a
medium was there at a party and he noticed her kind of standing by herself,
and he goes okay, and she started She started telling her telling the
person about like her life situation was going on. She'd been divorced and she
was seeing another guy or seeing someone and that wasn't going well. And then
there's this other guy she was in interested to that wasn't going well, and
he goes, listen, don't worry about the two guys that you're hung up
on or your ex husband. Another one's coming. That another one that was
coming as you end up being me, Yeah all over feet? Why said
me like that? Billy? And all she said was God, damn it?
All right? One more One more stranger's encounters with a stranger. This
person writes, when I was fifteen, I used to ride the bus for
five hours and thirty five miles every Friday so that I could practice with my
band I was. It was actually four different bus changes, so I ran
into a lot of colorful characters. It was a city bus in a major
metropolitan area. Well, one time, this older, homeless, eccentric looking
gentleman boarded the bus with a bottle of wine and a brown paper bag.
His lips were stained. He was clearly drunk, but not to the point
of being a problem or anything. He sat across the aisle from me,
and I was thinking, oh, Gray, here we go. But he
was calm, and eventually we started. I was uncomfortable at first, but
we discussed the interesting things and shared our philosophies. After a while, his
stop came up. This man, who had never met before and who knew
nothing about my background, stood up and took my hand in his and kissed
it. Now, at first I was thinking, great, this guy's a
creep who's into fifteen year old boys. But then I looked into his eyes
and realized he wasn't being creepy at all. There was no devious intention.
He looked at me and said, I know the pain you were feeling.
You lost your mother. Do not despair. She's with you. Then he
explained, and I've never heard of this, and I didn't even look it
up. I'm a seraphim of the highest order. Seraphim of the highest order.
Seraphim and seriffim are like in the Bible, They're like angels or angelic
creatures. Okay, so I'm a seraphim of the highest order. I'm not
familiar and did a sort of theatrical curtsy and walked off the butts. I
was left dumbfounded. The thing is, my mother had passed away from cancer
less than the year before that. I was feeling completely lost without her.
It was the darkest time in my life. He was, this random homeless
man knew this about me. How this room, random homeless man knew this
about me. I'll never know. He was like a character from the movie
Dogma. Maybe he'll maybe he really was a seraphim of the highest order.
It still gives me chills thinking about it. Wow. Yeah, yeah,
I mean that that's that would that would be old freaky. Do you think
that there's angels that come to I think I believe in angels. Yes,
that that could warn you stuff or tell you about things. Yeah, I
don't know that they would come in the appearance of records, but I mean
I do believe that, yes, absolutely. But like acting, you know,
this is why he's on the bus nobody else. I'm here to talk
just to Dan. I don't want to bring a lot of attention to myself.
People are not gonna pay us that homeless guy, so he's stressed up.
Yeah, yeah, I could see that. I could totally see.
The only message is everything's gonna be okay. Yeah. I mean I've heard
of a story where there was this one girl whom she got jumped by a
couple of guys and you know, was assaulted, right, and so another
woman like so they show it on the news that this woman had been assaulted.
They described the person and where it happened. This girl was watching on
television sees this. She goes, I know the guy. I could I
know exactly what she's talking about. So she goes and picks the guy out
of a lineup and says, that's the guy, and then she goes,
can I talk to him? And the police are like, why do you
want to talk to him? Because I walked by him and he didn't attack
me. So he goes, sure, are you offended? No, she
goes, why didn't you? She's not that hot because I walk right by
you, she goes. The guy goes, yeah, you were with two
men. I didn't want to like rustle two guys. She goes, I
was walking by myself. In other words, there were two guardian angels around
her. She walked by, and this guy sees them. He's like,
well, I'm not going to mess with with her. She's with two guys.
Does that make sense? It sounds a little made up that she would
then want to go talk to him and find out that I don't. It
could be here. Here's the thing that I think you ever you ever look
back on a situation when whenever it's over whatever the situation is, maybe financial,
maybe relationship. Maybe like what Beth was told, right, she's got
a guy it's not going well, a divorce, another guy she's sort of
interested in. But and that, and somebody says, but when you look
back, everything always works out. It may not work out the way you
think it is in the back then, but most of the time it works
out better. And that's what I was saying earlier. And stop banging your
head against the wall and just believe, just believe that it's all going to
work out, because I do think everything pretty much works out, you know.
You know, I think there's some tough things that we don't fully understand
in our human capability. I think death is really can both of you guys
have have gone through something I've never gone through. The loss of parent,
Yes, right, that that that can turn you can turn your on your
head, your world on your head. You know, absolutely it was.
It was a rough time, I'm sure, and I'm sure I've lost rainbows
and unicorns. Yeah, I've lost the sibling too. I mean, it's
it's something that you know. It's one thing also when you see it coming,
like my father, we knew he had cancer. It was just a
matter of time. With my sister, it was like sudden dropped in after
a bills game, Like I don't know what. I don't know what.
What's the better one? I don't. I don't know, because the pain
has to be the same for both, even whether you prepare for it or
not. I don't know. There's no way to measure I guess there's there's
no there's no there's no way to measure it. You know, it's really
difficult. I think it's different when it's a parent, because the parent raised
you your entire life. Your sister, you know. In my case,
you know, she lived so far away and we didn't live in the same
house. She was my father's first my father's daughter from a previous marriage,
right, so while we were close, we didn't have that everyday relationship.
We weren't growing up together. So it was a little bit different, you
know. I mean, if I lost one of my siblings now, I'd
be just as devastated, maybe more devastated. I don't. I don't know.
So she's been happened all of a sudden. It's another thing when like
at least when you find out where you're gonna be the first sibling to go.
What do you think at least if it's like a terminal illness, Yes,
now you've got time to prepare for you do when it happens. To
me, that's dying. I want to I want to quick. I don't
want the terminal, I don't want the long distance. I want to go.
I want to go tomorrow. Yes, I can understand that from from
your point. I'm just saying, like, for like your kids and stuff,
to prepare for it, I don't know when when the when the final
thing actually happens, even though you know it's coming more so than you did
for your sister, does it make the when it actually happens any less painful?
I think you start overthinking it at a certain point. If it just
if dad just goes, he just goes. Yeah. Yeah. The other
thing too, is like when you know, I've had more situations, I'm
just wet and my dad lasted And it was a little bit easier with my
mother because it was just it was h Yeah, there was nothing I could
think about it. What we do different and what else could we do?
Or when you know it's coming, It's like it said, you can go
to the stages of grief too, like bargaining, denial, acceptance and all
that stuff, and you fluctuate between those. You know, what could I
do? Is there something I could have done? Or you know, it's
it's it's difficult. I didn't mean to make it heavy. But but but
that's what we're here for. But I think my point with this too though,
it goes back to like, let's take beth situation with the where the
guy says to her, hey, whatever is going to stop banging your head
against the wall. Let life come to you. Well, that's what I'm
saying, go back to the thing. If you're looking for a connection,
If she was looking for a connection with somebody, stop banging your head against
the wall and trying to make something work. That just isn't going to something
better, something that does fit everything you want is there? Just let it
come in. Just let it come in, you know, because I really
think, I really believe that that's the thing. And we but we'll get
ourselves all twisted about. Look, then that's just because that's what I'm saying,
is like the players probably will change. Right. If you feel like
you're begging a head against the wall, you are banging your head against the
wall. That is true. You are, you're frustrated, it's not working.
It's not if you're looking for like your job. You know, I
don't like my job. But you want to go someplace where you feel like
you're valued and you can have creativity and all. It go back to those
base feelings. It may not be the place you think you're gonna go.
You may find an even better place than you are now. Same thing with
the relationship, that's the thing. That's where I go. I don't know
why. I've been thinking about that a lot in the last twenty four hours,
and I'm just like, I'm not forcing shit anymore. Fuck it,
I don't care. Van Wilder says, don't take life serious. Yeah,
never get out a lot, right, that's one thing. Yeah, don't
take yourself in more life too seriously. I will say this though, Yes,
you mentioned these stories about people who are telling people. Now they've went
and found these people. They didn't accept any money for it. They actually
just kind of tipped them off to what's going to happen these stories. There
are people who are Charlatans who try to take people's money. So I have
a plan. So between the three of us, we should have a safe
word where we know if this person's ripping us off, like if one of
us should pass. We go to the medium and they try to communicate with
one of us and we have the safe word, and we know if they're
full of crap by using this safe word. So we ask about the safe
word, and if that safewoord isn't used, then we know that they're full
of it. I think that's a great fool proof planph I like that.
I like that as the word. Okay, I like it. That's the
word. All right, we'll take a moment. It's an advice thing that
I didn't get to. I think it was last week. I dug that
up again, and we will get to that next. But first, Jimmy

know, Billy, it's cool. You know. Last time it was the
explosive hot long now it's uh. You know I got sprayed to the screen
door with some shit hair lip. You know whatever, If you're taking hot
loads, it's no big deal hairlibs. So fuck did there's anything wrong with
that? Got about the explosive hot time you're doing to game point and be
sure to like and subscribe to Bilified wherever you get your podcast. He laughs
like the million dollar Man. I don't know what he is. He is
one of my favorite calls. He's crazy. You can leave us a message
anytime to a sixty eighty sixties Charlie. He sounds like a Charlie. I
should know, but I don't. I don't know. Do you think you
are cool? No? Do you think you're cool? Kevin? Absolutely not?
Okay, be cool anymore? Uh so they someone asked thirty five thousand
Americans that question. You have time to do that thirty five thousand Americans.
So I don't know when they say someone, I'm not sure. I don't
know. If this was like a you gov poll, what percentage of Americans
do you think said that they were cool? Seventy eight percent? Did they
confuse this with temperature or did they was it? Was it specified out to
them that no, they knew what it man, we had a bust what
espally, Hey, did Tommy say anything about my lunch with him? Because
I'm cool? Sixty four? What time I know him cool? I'm cool?
Right? Wait? Wait wait the guy that's no longer on the planet.
Yes, ye had a lunch of time. He wanted to know if
he said some cool because I want time. I even think I'm cool.
Yeah, but he didn't mean it like I'm cool, like I'm a hip,
Like like I'm a good guy. You can tell me anything, a
good boss, you know, not like because you know I'm cool, I'm
cool? Right? They came to me and asked me about every well that
like that guy did, the others wouldn't talk to me. I don't know.
It's a very strange. It was just funny, like some cool right,
Yeah, uh, you're cool? Man? What percent is Kevin?
Do you think? Sixty four? Sixty four Kevin again? Closer fifty three?
Wow percent. I think that's time. Forty seven percent of the country's
being honest, twenty nine percent said no, and seventeen percent said they're not
sure. Okay, yeah, now here's sure. What the term is being
cool now? Though? I don't know, uh, breaking out if you
ask my kids, absolutely not breaking out into a random song during the day,
far or less likely if you live in the Midwest. Only forty four
percent of Midwestern I think they're cool? Uh doing but be cool? Yeah,
I don't know. So, I don't know. It's kind of an
odd thing. But the only reason that that jumped off the page of me
is last night we talked about a or on the last episode talked about a
survey of men, and it was about that half of men feel pressure to
act manly. If you feel pressure to act manly, away, you're cool.
I'm sorry you're not cool. I feel like I'm cool. I think
I'm interesting. Yeah, I would say that. Yeah, you're definitely interested.
I have different I just it's just different things in life. And I
don't I'll go up to anybody and talk to me. I don't give anybody
curious. Kevin, we were talking in when I went to a concert.
We parked actually these random women and I just drag up a conversation just because
they were there and I was drinking. Hey baby, where's the fire in
your pants? Uh? Wow, it's interesting. Yeah, I don't know.
Do I think I'm cool? That's I don't know. If I don't
know, I may say yeah, I guess. I mean I do I
do. I know I do cool ship. I do ship that I think
is cool. I think that's the same thing for I think I do fun
ship. Yeah, I think I do cool ship. Like I love,
you know, racing cars. I'll do that once in a while, and
I love do stand up. I'll do that once in a while. And
I think this is fun, And so I do. I mean, I
think I do cool ship. Am I cool? I don't know. And
I hang out with fun people, that's yeah, And that's not my that's
not I would say that that's not my definite. You know, that's not
for me to define, right, you know, but I would say I
think I do cool ship that interests me like that that kind of stuff here
practically do sekis guy? Well the most interesting? There you go? No,
I mean I think there's certain like you're in a band. Yeah,
I don't know if that makes me cool. No, but that's a cool
thing. It is a cool thing. So again I would say that cool
has to be defined by others. Yes, I can. You can't define
cool. I don't think you can define yourself as cool. You can say
I do cool things, maybe I'm cool, or you know maybe like okay,
I'll say this because what what what made you a cool kid back in
the day and like school, what made you cool did? Was it because
you had the certain clothes? Or was it because of the people you hung
out with? I think it was because of the people that like would draw
themselves to you. Like Colin Coward always says, like there's this thing called
quarterback face. Right, So at a young age, if you're a good
athlete, you have and you're a good looking kid, all the boys think
you're cool and all the girls think you're cute, so you have this quarterback
face and then you you know, you automatically get the ball no matter what.
You're the guy that everybody's drawn to. And then if then then if
you get accepted by that guy, then you have to be right. Like
when we would when we worked together, everybody wanted to be friends with You
were Tommy because you were the funny guys in the in the building. And
if you thought they were, if you liked them, then they had to
be cool. You know. I'll tell you what what I think. I
don't think you can name yourself cool. I don't know either, That's what
I'm saying. I think it has to be somebody else but that. But
but people do look for that validation though from the cool guy they respect.
Yeah, but he likes me. I gotta be well, you knew who
I'm thinking you're cool and you're thinking I'm cool. That's not you thinking you're
cool. But I think that's what goes through people's heads. No, but
we all knew who the cool kids were, right, you know, and
you kind of knew who that who is your Zach Morris in your school,
you know, like, yeah, that's that's what I mean. I'm not
I'm not asking. I'm like, that's you know, uh No, I
think there was. There was a couple others. It depended as I got
higher up. When I got higher up in in the grades. I think
by my senior year, most of the guys, some of the guys that
just sort of faded off. They weren't playing sports anymore, they weren't considered
as cool, and I was. I was doing every dumb, stupid fucking
thing, Like if shit was going if ship was going down, it was
I was involved or I knew about it. I was involved, or I
knew about it that that much. I could tell you the guy you were
the expert on the Poughkeepsie News at six o'clock, we have our chaos expert.
Something from the stories to tell you were the guy Fisher too. I
well, I tell stories about people. I would say no, But I
mean, I think this like most of the time when we worked to get
at that place, I I just kept my head down. I didn't I
just went and worked. I just wanted to win. I didn't care.
And I think that any point in my life where I just focused on like
doing something, and then you know, at the time my family, that
was it. I didn't care. I didn't give a shit what anybody else
thought, and that usually made it cool because then they're like, what's she
doing? And that's what I always tried to tell my boys, is like,
go go stop worrying about what everybody else thinks, and go do you
right? You want to be a great athlete, Go work on just that
and let people go, hey, what's he doing over there instead of trying
to react and fit in and do all this stuff. It's it's hard,
it's hard, but that that's how you That's how you do it. Stop
trying to prove or or whatever. I always think that when you are trying,
not always, but a lot of times, when we do things to
spite somebody else, I'm gonna fuck their life up. I'm gonna it never
goes well for you, even internally, you don't feel great about yourself.
It may work out and then nothing happened, but feel good for like a
split sec you're gonna feel You're gonna feel shitty about that. Yeah, yeah,
you know what I'm saying. And I go, why don't you just
go focus on something else? Eventually, something's gonna pay off. But you
know, trying to spite or fight or go back or they did me wrong
on a fucking shit show them, eh, show yourself, yes, don't
show them. Fuck them proved to you. Fuck them. They didn't care
about you before, they don't care about you now. Nobody cares about you.
You know, like I started out saying, nobody gives a shit.
Just hey, how you doing so? Doing great? We had a boss
wants a different boss who you know, was told he could never be a
program director by a by a boss of his. So he decided, Bob
he was. He told us the story, and he said that he set
out his entire career to prove that guy wrong. And when he finally got
to that point where he he was a program director, guy didn't remember him.
Yeah. Well, but but look, Michael Jordan built his whole life
on that same thing, right, and whatever is going to motivate you.
My point is, though, think about how much frustration and anger and feeling
that is. I'm going to show them. How about I'll show me.
I think this would be a really interesting idea, and I'm just gonna do
it instead of fuck you know, I'm gonna show them. I think like
once I started even doing that with the break room. I stopped thinking about
when I thought about, I'll tell you where it was. I'll tell you
exactly where it was. I remember thinking, because there was a lot of
this, you know, what's we's doing, what's we saying? There was
all this fighting that we were the enemy now and shit was being said and
all kinds of crap. I had a call and apologize to him for something
I don't even remember, but I got win that he was upset. It
was all this turmoil going on. And I remember when somebody had come back
into town and had taken over the stations and they got there's ratings and they
got and then there were trends, and trends are just like a monthly thing
that would show you how they're doing. And this person went to majority of
the clients that we had on the break room. And when when this person
came back, they were really trying to get that weezish. I even hate
talking about radio, to be quote, honestly, it makes myk just because
it makes you sound bitter, and I'm not I'm just saying that, well,
yeah, but I just I feel like that that's the case. But
so they were trying to push them mark them out there because the name was
so big, and there were a lot of people that were very, very
upset because they thought there was what was called confusion that people were still writing
down the old station and then the news station. So so no matter what
you did, whatever I did right and I took this stuff personally, you
were never getting the credit. There was not one person who was over in
another camp that even when the ratings were higher for us, that they would
ever believe that it had nothing. It wasn't you. It was confusion.
It wasn't you. It was confusion. There's no way it wasn't you.
It was confusion. Maybe they're right, I don't know. So, but
this time the trends came out and allegedly I didn't see them. We had
a zero, and this person went around to every single client and told them
we had a zero, so meaning that nobody was listening to the break room.
And that's when I thought, you know what, just stop thinking about
them and worrying about what they're saying, and stop. And I only found
out because somebody came to me, and then I found out who was that
did it, and I found out what other clients heard, and it bothered
me for a little while. And I remember one morning sitting down in my
office before I went to where I had an office in my house, and
I remember sitting there going, you know what, I'm just gonna focus on
doing what I believe is great. And in the end, when I decided
to leave there, the show was decidedly number one. I would fucking argue
with anybody that at that point, which was almost two years later, or
at least a year after the zero thing, By that point there was such
air between us and we'su's show. There was air. There was no fucking
confusion at that point. Suck my dick. There was confusion, assholes,
And but it was because I stopped thinking about you. I didn't give a
shit what you thought. You would do your thing and that, and that's
kind of how I have to do. But I remember those confusion things,
and even when I left and went over every I think every manager, every
person was like, there's a lot of confusion. Was there? Was there?
Okay, yeah, if you say so, because I also will tell
you that somebody who was the head of that organization had pulled me and said,
you guys did unbelievably that the fact that you let would do unbelievably.
Yeah, I knew, but I stopped focusing on, you know, worrying
about what are they going to think and what Just do what you believe is
best. Do what you believe is best, and everything will always work out.
Compete with yourself. Two years ago, says this text. Two years
one of my good friends went out with this girl twice. He liked her,
but she didn't like him. So it ended there. They went out
twice. They went out twice, so she gave him a second chance.
Yes, okay, so it ended there. They went out twice. Se
see Kevin's head going So I knew who this girl was, but we had
never met right, I had heard about her, she saw pictures, knew
that. When we did, we recognized each other and started talking. We
really hit it off and have now gone on four dates and are really clicking.
On our last date and that we run into my friend, it was
so awkward. After the date, I had a nasty voicemail from my friend
telling me that I'm disrespecting him. Am I a bad friend for dating the
girl that in violating bro code? Or is this girl fair game now?
I always thought bro code was like, if you went out with somebody for
a while, but he really liked her, I probably would stay away myself.
And if he went on two dates, but they went on two dates,
they were that's a guy's mom. I think there was a lot of
time in between there. I'm sorry, it's funny. I don't mean to
get I was gonna use that, to be honest with you. I think
it's fair bro code. I think guys throw the word bro code around for
the term bro code around way too liberally, way too often to me,
like there's nothing, there's nothing wrong. It didn't click with them, but
maybe it'll click with these two. So they did. They owe to themselves
to explore that. It's not like you know, if it was. I
think there was time, and I meant I wrote back and I never got
a response saying how much time? Because he went out with her two years
ago? Is this present day? So two years later? And I don't
know, is this like your best friend or are you hanging out with them
all the time or is it just a casual person? And then there you
go, I don't know, if you're invested for a month, two months,
three months, then yes, it's bro code. If if it's two
dates, no, I'm with Kevin, I think less than a month,
you're good. Yeah, that's silly. Just keep keep going, man,
that's that's ridiculous. Just I think somebody's got their ego bruise at didn't work
out with them. Especially, that's what if he didn't get if you didn't
get her in bad then it's definitely like if after two dates and you feel
like heartbroken, Okay, that's one thing, but like how much did you
really have invested? It was just missed expectations? But like that's not like
you had a relationship. You went on a couple of dates. So no,
I just I think that's ridiculous. Good for the other couple, let
them explore it. But see, you know, it's it's so easy for
us to say that. But what if what if you went out with the
chicken you really liked her, and you had told your buddy, yeah,
man, I'm really into this chicken. Look at her and hot blah blah
blah blah. You go out another date and you're like, don't go,
and all of a sudden, like six months a year later, you're walking
and all of a sudden you see them together. That would sting a little,
It would sting. But I mean, how close are you with the
money now? Too? I don't know. That's the other thing, because
all right, what if have you ever had anybody call you and say,
do you mind if I date so and so? No? No, no,
no. Now I've known people who have done that, Hey do you
mind if I Do you mind if I date so and so or whatever.
I've even had a guy I knew a guy who sometimes relationships will dovetail.
Right, you're you're not exactly out of one, and then you wound up
starting a new one. And there was a woman who was not exactly out
of one, and she started a new one. And I knew the guy,
and I was with him and the guy we were happening to be in
a bar, and he had started seeing this woman on a pretty regular basis.
They might have been two three weeks in. And there's that guy that
she was with last And he came up to this guy and he said,
hey, uh, were you with her? And he said, you know
what, I'm gonna be honest with you. He said, I I thought
that things were over with you, And yes I was, And the guy
goes, thanks for being honest. He walked away. I was waiting to
see, like, WHOA, what's gonna happen? Yeah, but it wasn't.
It was actually, he goes, all right, thank you. Within
the last four years I was, I was living by myself. Yeah,
I was out with wow. Yeah, and I was like, whoa,
I was waiting to see. Yeah. I was like. When I was
in college, my best friend and I dated the same girl, not the
same time. We're in the same class. And she started dating him,
and then when things fizzled out, she came to me and I said,
do you mind if I dated her? You asked her? I asked her
yeah, because like they weren't really dating yeah, you know, and I
was like, he's like yeah, sure. So we kind of dated for
a while and things kind of fizzled out. You know, she wasn't she
wasn't my type. But we found out like a year later, she started
dating this other dude that we didn't know, and that didn't work out.
So then she started dating his best friend. Yeah, so she dates his
best friend for like two years. I'm like, wow, this, I
told my best friend. This sounds kind of familiar, right, So then
after the best friend of her breakup, she goes back to the previous best
friend the other guy, and now they're married here like twenty years later.
Who knows, But I mean, it's like, it's kind of I think
it's kind of weird that you're, like, you're dating pairs of guys.
Maybe you figure it out, maybe there's a certain style you like. You
ever look at it, Like look at groups of kids, like I always
love to watch when my kids were a little away, Like I can tell
what group they fit because they all dressed tolike they all they all right,
they all do and so you see that, and maybe that was her her
style. She liked a certain group of guy or a certain type of guy
I have. I don't know how, but like nine to eleven, right
nine to eleven, you had a bunch of firemen lost, and then the
fire the commandos would take care of the widows. And sometimes some of these
guys were still married and would all of a sudden they were leaving their family
to because they were bonded over this thing and they found up with that other
one. Lot, Yeah, it happened. There were a few stories,
like David to talk about that, like King Staten Island or something. You
may, I don't I don't remember you may. I mean I could see
that happening. Yeah, she goes, you didn't know the firefighter? I
know? Guy back home? Oh, come on, Kevin, Here we
go. Kevin picture at Silver Creek, nineteen ninety eight. Right. So
actually about two thousand and three, so that Second Gulf War breaks out.
Yeah, So there's this local area politician, a city, town councilmen or
whatever, and this councilman he has to go off to a rock because he's
in the reserves or something like that. So a relative of minds mother in
law goes, hey, uh, you're in the American lead you. Why
don't you go and check out his wife and see if she needs anything?
And they end up having an affair. Well, yeah, it happens.
Yeah, it happens. We're only human, Danny. Some men are just
magnetic animals. Guess I guess so? Or done wrapping it up? Wow,
wrapping it up. So it'll we learned today. We learned that to
let go, let go, just let go and go for what you want.
They focus on what you want at that at its core, and everything
will work out, I promise and our safe word is for Kevin, you
or Dan Marilla on Bill Moran. We'll see tomorrow. I want to rule
the letter to you and me to stop. They not a dad, the
apartment here in a state m hm
