WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.600 --> 00:00:09.960 You are about to be trampled underfoot. Welcome everybody to Trampled Underfoot Podcast. 2 00:00:10.640 --> 00:00:15.119 Now in smell a vision, that's right. If you scratch, do you 3 00:00:15.160 --> 00:00:19.399 remember the scratching sniff? I think that they were like were they playing cards 4 00:00:19.719 --> 00:00:23.160 or back when we were kids, there were scratching sniff stuff. Oh yeah, 5 00:00:23.199 --> 00:00:26.760 there were stickers and there were little things in the magazine for cologne and 6 00:00:26.879 --> 00:00:29.679 what have you. You know, dude, it was so awesome as a 7 00:00:29.760 --> 00:00:32.399 kid, the scratch and stuff. It was so it was more for the 8 00:00:32.479 --> 00:00:35.439 kids than for the adults. Oh yeah, you know. So if you 9 00:00:35.520 --> 00:00:38.960 lean forward and you scratch on your monitor and give it a sniff, it'll 10 00:00:39.000 --> 00:00:43.960 smell like plastic. Hi, I'm Marko. We're two guys from different decades, 11 00:00:44.119 --> 00:00:48.240 different backgrounds, and on the opposite sides of the continent, discussing life, 12 00:00:48.399 --> 00:00:51.679 the universe and everything. What's the show about? About an hour? 13 00:00:52.039 --> 00:00:57.600 Trampled Underfoot? So I did want to mention something that I kind of glossed 14 00:00:57.640 --> 00:01:03.079 over for whatever reason for these past few weeks, or maybe it was last 15 00:01:03.079 --> 00:01:07.120 week when I'm not quite sure, but I'm sure that that we'll get get, 16 00:01:07.159 --> 00:01:10.560 you know, clear that up. So last week or the week before 17 00:01:11.120 --> 00:01:15.280 Little Richard passed away, and we didn't really and we you know, oftentimes 18 00:01:15.319 --> 00:01:21.000 talk about, you know, these musicians that are iconic to us and to 19 00:01:21.359 --> 00:01:26.159 American culture, and we kind of, you know, give it a once 20 00:01:26.200 --> 00:01:29.480 over and talk about it. And I and we glossed over a little Richard. 21 00:01:29.480 --> 00:01:32.959 Well, I came across the video where he was talking about his life 22 00:01:32.959 --> 00:01:38.000 and stuff, maybe back in the late seventies like that, an interview, 23 00:01:38.439 --> 00:01:42.439 you know, it reminded me of my little Richard story. I have a 24 00:01:42.480 --> 00:01:47.840 little Richard story. I have a little Richard story which I'll share with you 25 00:01:48.000 --> 00:01:49.680 if you don't mind. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah. So 26 00:01:49.840 --> 00:01:55.799 number one, Little Richard was always an important musical figure to me. As 27 00:01:55.879 --> 00:02:01.680 a connoisseur of music and a music student, I naturally sort of like gravitated 28 00:02:01.760 --> 00:02:07.519 to the rock and roll of the fifties and the blues and the sixties. 29 00:02:07.560 --> 00:02:09.280 It's just there was a chunk of that which we've talked about a lot. 30 00:02:10.199 --> 00:02:15.039 So I would buy the albums and I would listen to them and repeat and 31 00:02:15.080 --> 00:02:17.680 repeat and repeat and all that. And so I was pretty familiar with Little 32 00:02:17.759 --> 00:02:22.919 Richard songs. I've forgotten more than I learned, you know, lyric wise 33 00:02:23.000 --> 00:02:27.240 and chord everything. Even though it's simple to play, let's say, but 34 00:02:27.439 --> 00:02:29.919 time flies, and you know, I mean, heck, I don't even 35 00:02:29.960 --> 00:02:32.439 know where I'm sitting right now. But so years and years ago, maybe 36 00:02:32.479 --> 00:02:38.560 twenty years ago, roughly thereabouts, a friend of mine, good friend of 37 00:02:38.599 --> 00:02:42.360 mine, he got, hooked me up with some tickets. He was working 38 00:02:42.400 --> 00:02:45.639 at the casino. And I think that this was either when I was working 39 00:02:45.680 --> 00:02:51.120 at or right before I had something or other like that, because he did 40 00:02:51.159 --> 00:02:53.240 this twice in two occasions. But I'll tell you my little Richard story. 41 00:02:53.639 --> 00:03:00.080 Little Richard was going to play at the Micasuki Indian Casino. And to me, 42 00:03:00.199 --> 00:03:04.000 that's was a big deal for day. You know, here you go, 43 00:03:04.479 --> 00:03:07.439 here's some some entry to go see it. So I went. I 44 00:03:07.479 --> 00:03:13.280 was super stoked to and I it was during the day and he was up 45 00:03:13.280 --> 00:03:20.319 on this scaffolding stage with his piano rocking away, and I just kept walking 46 00:03:21.080 --> 00:03:24.719 closer and closer to the stage, and I was surprised that I had free 47 00:03:25.080 --> 00:03:29.960 you know, passage on The crowd wasn't stuffed. It wasn't like a big 48 00:03:29.960 --> 00:03:32.479 deal. I don't know who the headliners were, but to me he was 49 00:03:32.520 --> 00:03:36.240 the headliner. You know what I'm saying to me, that was I don't 50 00:03:36.280 --> 00:03:38.960 even know who the heck the other people were, but that's what I remember. 51 00:03:38.280 --> 00:03:42.919 And so I walked my way up to the stage, and I made 52 00:03:42.960 --> 00:03:46.120 it like literally in front of the stage, higher above me, above my 53 00:03:46.159 --> 00:03:50.960 head, maybe less than a story like here in the room, let's say, 54 00:03:51.719 --> 00:03:57.360 i'd say probably nine feet above probably maybe even a little bit less nine 55 00:03:57.400 --> 00:04:00.360 feet eight eight or nine feet scaffoldings it up and all that. And he's 56 00:04:00.400 --> 00:04:08.080 playing a lucile what you won't do, your sister will, And I'm looking 57 00:04:08.120 --> 00:04:15.520 at it and I'm freaking blown away, and I'm singing along with his songs, 58 00:04:15.520 --> 00:04:18.160 like word for word, and he's playing and he turns his head. 59 00:04:18.759 --> 00:04:23.240 No joke, this is my rock and roll moment when I have a few 60 00:04:23.279 --> 00:04:26.839 little stories. But he's playing, and I'm looking up and he's singing, 61 00:04:27.199 --> 00:04:32.000 and he turns his head and he looks dead straight at me, and I'm 62 00:04:32.040 --> 00:04:38.399 singing and I'm looking my eyes and his eyes met and I am my lips. 63 00:04:38.480 --> 00:04:41.000 He can't hear me because he's the one, the loud one, but 64 00:04:41.040 --> 00:04:46.120 he can hear me singing and moving my lips to the lyrics perbatim of what 65 00:04:46.279 --> 00:04:49.480 he's singing, right, And I'm singing, what do you want to do 66 00:04:49.519 --> 00:04:53.879 about Sister Will? And he's singing, and he's looking at me while he's 67 00:04:53.920 --> 00:04:58.519 singing. We're both singing it, and I'm like, holy crap, and 68 00:04:58.639 --> 00:05:01.560 I totally forgot the lyrics and I started mumbling stuff, well, you won't 69 00:05:01.600 --> 00:05:09.319 do my peanut butter. And he saw that and he did his face went 70 00:05:09.360 --> 00:05:15.399 like this, m and he turned and he turned away and he turned away 71 00:05:15.439 --> 00:05:18.360 and that that's my little Richard story. Um. But like I felt so 72 00:05:18.560 --> 00:05:23.600 bad, like like because I was doing so well with his eyes met min 73 00:05:23.720 --> 00:05:26.680 and I kept singing it. And then when I screwed up, He's like 74 00:05:27.439 --> 00:05:30.480 and he turned his head and kept on never looked over to me again, 75 00:05:30.519 --> 00:05:33.199 like he was done with a bat And I was like, you know, 76 00:05:33.240 --> 00:05:36.160 but just the same. It was such an awesome occurrence and stuff, and 77 00:05:36.199 --> 00:05:43.519 he did pass away and for all outward and and and you know, stories 78 00:05:43.519 --> 00:05:46.759 and stuff. He was a really generous and nice guy. And he was 79 00:05:46.800 --> 00:05:55.000 an iconic American rock and roller that gave birth to inspiration to so many people, 80 00:05:55.079 --> 00:05:59.040 including the Beatles. As just one and um, yeah, and I 81 00:05:59.079 --> 00:06:03.040 just wanted to at least for us. On the show Trampled Underfoot podcast mentioned 82 00:06:03.040 --> 00:06:11.360 Little Richard just iconic beyond what I could even possibly express. He had three 83 00:06:11.519 --> 00:06:15.759 nicknames. Do you know what they were? No, he was called the 84 00:06:15.800 --> 00:06:21.120 innovator, the originator, and the architect of rock and roll. Interesting, 85 00:06:21.120 --> 00:06:27.160 those were the three nicknames that he was given because he goes back to the 86 00:06:27.360 --> 00:06:30.600 roots, I mean the very roots of rock and roll. He came up, 87 00:06:30.759 --> 00:06:36.279 he came up. He's one of the original rock and rollers. Yea. 88 00:06:38.360 --> 00:06:43.920 Even back then, he was just considered outrageous for the standards of the 89 00:06:44.000 --> 00:06:47.720 days. He was considered strange, weird. When you went on TV, 90 00:06:47.920 --> 00:06:51.720 you had to wear makeup. It was all black and white, and they 91 00:06:51.759 --> 00:06:58.759 really accentuated you know, if you had dark circles or if you had dark 92 00:06:58.839 --> 00:07:02.439 creases, they would try to lighten that up to make it even. He 93 00:07:02.519 --> 00:07:09.639 went overboard, and he went crazy with the makeup and went crazy with the 94 00:07:09.680 --> 00:07:14.120 hair. You never knew what you were getting when Little Richard was going to 95 00:07:14.199 --> 00:07:20.160 be on TV. The songs he sang, I mean tooty fruity and long 96 00:07:20.199 --> 00:07:28.920 Tall Sally and Lucy ill I did not I did not understand about half of 97 00:07:28.959 --> 00:07:33.000 the lyrics until I was well in my twenties and I could kind of listen 98 00:07:33.040 --> 00:07:36.639 and wait a minute, wait, and I've been singing these songs forever. 99 00:07:38.199 --> 00:07:42.120 You know, everybody knew bab ba blah blah bah blah bamboo. Okay, 100 00:07:42.360 --> 00:07:46.839 fine, but quick, what are the words to long tall sally? Half 101 00:07:46.839 --> 00:07:49.519 of the people who will try to sit there and they'll do exactly what little 102 00:07:49.600 --> 00:07:57.199 Richard cut you doing. Oh baby, yeah baby, But they don't know. 103 00:08:00.120 --> 00:08:03.800 He was outrageous on stage, off stage, interviews, whatever, and 104 00:08:03.959 --> 00:08:07.759 certainly a character. Yeah, I just wanted to and a good interview. 105 00:08:09.279 --> 00:08:11.759 I think if you like rock and roll interviews and stuff. It was in 106 00:08:11.800 --> 00:08:16.360 the seventies. I think it was Schneider, Tom Schneider, Tom Schneider. 107 00:08:16.439 --> 00:08:22.079 Yeah, on the Tomorrow Program he did and he really sat down with him 108 00:08:22.240 --> 00:08:28.279 and really opened up and explained what was what and how and this and that 109 00:08:28.639 --> 00:08:31.120 and um, you can't help, but you know, he had quite a 110 00:08:31.159 --> 00:08:35.000 tough life and he explains it. And he had such a you know, 111 00:08:35.759 --> 00:08:39.960 a good you know personality as well that you can't help, but like you 112 00:08:41.000 --> 00:08:43.759 know, like the guy you know, it's not but he had a rough 113 00:08:43.039 --> 00:08:48.320 go, you know, so it's a good interview, and I might Lincoln 114 00:08:48.360 --> 00:08:50.559 and post it. I'll find it and in our because what we do here 115 00:08:50.559 --> 00:08:56.639 for folks listening is that we we'll go ahead and do these shows every Tuesday, 116 00:08:56.960 --> 00:09:01.120 and that happens at six thirty pm Eastern time. I'm sorry, boy, 117 00:09:01.200 --> 00:09:05.559 I messed that up so bad. I'm sorry. Let me beep. 118 00:09:07.240 --> 00:09:13.279 So what we do is we usually go live every Tuesday, and that's Tuesday 119 00:09:13.360 --> 00:09:18.759 nights at nine thirty East Coast time and six thirty West Coast Pacific time. 120 00:09:20.200 --> 00:09:22.039 And so what we actually like to do is every now and then, with 121 00:09:22.080 --> 00:09:26.759 whatever topic we're talking about, we go ahead and post it on our Facebook 122 00:09:26.759 --> 00:09:31.200 page, because we also have a Facebook page, and that's Trampled Underfoot Podcast 123 00:09:31.279 --> 00:09:33.440 on Facebook. So I'll go ahead and look for that at by the end 124 00:09:33.440 --> 00:09:37.440 of the show and post there for those of you that are following over there, 125 00:09:37.759 --> 00:09:45.720 Trampled Underfoot. The only other thing that it's non related that I'd like 126 00:09:45.799 --> 00:09:48.960 to sort of share. It's it's a little bit of a rough topic, 127 00:09:50.279 --> 00:09:52.200 but you know, maybe controversial, perhaps perhaps not. I don't know, 128 00:09:52.320 --> 00:09:58.200 that doesn't matter. I saw a video today where a lady in New York 129 00:09:58.279 --> 00:10:03.679 City and some of you might have seen it was walking her dog without a 130 00:10:03.759 --> 00:10:09.240 leash and this dude, you know, he's filming her. He says, 131 00:10:09.320 --> 00:10:11.799 lady, please put your dog back on a leash, you know, because 132 00:10:11.799 --> 00:10:16.039 that's kind of the rules of the area. And there's they were saying that 133 00:10:16.039 --> 00:10:18.759 there's bird watchers and dogs on a LEAs, whatever the case may be. 134 00:10:20.440 --> 00:10:24.639 And she says, you've turned that camera off. You turned that came are 135 00:10:24.679 --> 00:10:28.159 you? Are you following me? And she went berserker on him and she 136 00:10:28.200 --> 00:10:33.320 says, are you trying You're trying to hurt me? Like she took you 137 00:10:33.360 --> 00:10:35.360 know, which, if you're told something that you don't want to do, 138 00:10:35.559 --> 00:10:39.639 you're gonna be pissed. But from that, you know, like you could 139 00:10:39.679 --> 00:10:43.480 say, hey, man, mind your own business or whak off, or 140 00:10:43.519 --> 00:10:46.639 whatever the heck you want to say. Um, But she started walking towards 141 00:10:46.720 --> 00:10:50.320 him and angrily and she's holding her dog. She finally puts it on the 142 00:10:50.440 --> 00:10:54.480 leash and she's like, get that camera, await, how dare you And 143 00:10:54.519 --> 00:10:56.399 then she grabs the phone. I'm calling the police. You're trying to hurt 144 00:10:56.440 --> 00:11:00.279 me, You're trying to molest me. You're trying to And she called on 145 00:11:00.320 --> 00:11:05.879 the phone nine one one, and she's like Officer and her voice as from 146 00:11:05.120 --> 00:11:11.000 Angry and he's filming this and she's doing this in front of the camera from 147 00:11:11.039 --> 00:11:13.080 and by the way, the dude was a black guy. And she says 148 00:11:13.120 --> 00:11:18.720 on the phone from Angry. As she was she turns Officer, there's a 149 00:11:18.720 --> 00:11:24.600 African American man here and he's tried to hurt me and my dog. He's 150 00:11:24.639 --> 00:11:28.360 trying to hurt and we're here in Central Park. And she changed her hope 151 00:11:28.679 --> 00:11:35.480 and she she's using the tactic to create a scenario and basically, you know, 152 00:11:35.320 --> 00:11:39.840 get one over on this guy in a very dangerous way. And I 153 00:11:39.879 --> 00:11:45.120 saw that and well, obviously I saw that's wrong on many levels. And 154 00:11:45.240 --> 00:11:48.879 plus such a pansy, you know, this this lady to manipulate and use 155 00:11:48.960 --> 00:11:54.159 that to your advantage for something so petty. Even if it wasn't petty, 156 00:11:54.440 --> 00:11:56.840 it was disgusting. I mean the videos out there as well. But here's 157 00:11:56.840 --> 00:12:00.919 the thing, you know, as all this was happening, and whatever social 158 00:12:00.960 --> 00:12:05.720 implications you know, might be, my main issue as I was watching the 159 00:12:05.720 --> 00:12:11.159 whole thing, is that she was tugging on the dog every time she'd get 160 00:12:11.159 --> 00:12:16.279 angry and like she'd have these moments of like a like emotional arousal. She 161 00:12:16.320 --> 00:12:20.240 would lift her arms that was holding the leash, and the dog is choking. 162 00:12:20.720 --> 00:12:24.720 She doesn't care about the dog. She doesn't care about the people there. 163 00:12:24.759 --> 00:12:26.919 She doesn't care about this. She cares about how she wants to do 164 00:12:26.960 --> 00:12:31.279 it her way when she wants to. And that's fine as long as you 165 00:12:31.320 --> 00:12:35.080 don't hurt other people. But once you get in the situation where you're manipulating, 166 00:12:35.159 --> 00:12:39.200 committing fraud, hurting an innocent little dog and all that, that's a 167 00:12:39.240 --> 00:12:41.759 different story. Long story, short, all end with this. The good 168 00:12:41.799 --> 00:12:46.440 news apparently is that her job saw it and she works in some sort of 169 00:12:46.480 --> 00:12:52.600 high profile this and that they fired her ass And I think either they took 170 00:12:52.600 --> 00:12:56.639 the dog away or I don't know this and that and done story. I 171 00:12:56.639 --> 00:13:00.399 mean, she committed like I mean, just barbaric, you know. So, 172 00:13:00.519 --> 00:13:03.799 yeah, I thought that was a very interesting thing that I saw. 173 00:13:05.080 --> 00:13:07.360 I have not seen that video. You're gonna now you're gonna have to find 174 00:13:07.399 --> 00:13:13.720 it and put it on the Trampled Underfoot Gas facebook page because I would like 175 00:13:13.799 --> 00:13:18.200 to see that. But we all want to complain about how we have no 176 00:13:18.279 --> 00:13:22.799 privacy and cameras are everywhere. Yeah, it's like that are why things like 177 00:13:22.919 --> 00:13:28.639 that are exactly why because without that camera, just by virtue of the fact 178 00:13:28.639 --> 00:13:33.120 that you had a white woman on the phone and a black male, they 179 00:13:33.159 --> 00:13:39.120 would have automatically taken her side. Because he had that video. That's what 180 00:13:39.279 --> 00:13:43.759 saved his tail in. Well. See, that's the other implication. That's 181 00:13:43.759 --> 00:13:48.360 the other implication going there's so many layers of stuff with a simple little story, 182 00:13:48.799 --> 00:13:52.840 there's so many. That's why I sat there. But my main concerns 183 00:13:52.919 --> 00:13:56.360 I was looking because the dog was not I mean the dog. See here's 184 00:13:56.360 --> 00:13:58.679 the thing. The dog like dogs are and if you're a dog lover, 185 00:14:00.320 --> 00:14:03.080 he's happy and joy. You could see him, and she's choking the crap 186 00:14:03.080 --> 00:14:07.279 out of it. Yeah, and his face he's still saying, well, 187 00:14:07.279 --> 00:14:11.480 I don't like this, but you're you're my, my, my, my, 188 00:14:11.720 --> 00:14:13.360 you know, master, So I'm gonna go ahead and smile. And 189 00:14:13.440 --> 00:14:18.000 it breaks my heart. The you know, the cruelty that can occur, 190 00:14:18.559 --> 00:14:22.039 and it just pissed me. So I was pissed at that and the other 191 00:14:22.120 --> 00:14:26.120 stuff. I had to put that to the side because that moment, it 192 00:14:26.159 --> 00:14:28.240 pissed me up, but when I heard the end of it, I was 193 00:14:28.279 --> 00:14:31.480 like, oh, good, screw her. Yeah, you know it's so 194 00:14:33.360 --> 00:14:35.399 entitled. You know what, I'm in the next place that I was going. 195 00:14:35.480 --> 00:14:39.879 And that's why people have dash camps, and that's why officers have body 196 00:14:39.919 --> 00:14:46.159 camps, and that's why people now have There are more people with security cameras 197 00:14:46.159 --> 00:14:54.720 in this country than you can count, simply because people need proof. We 198 00:14:54.799 --> 00:14:58.360 have always assumed that there's a certain element out there that of just bad people. 199 00:15:00.039 --> 00:15:03.320 But until everybody started carrying around a camera with them everywhere they went, 200 00:15:03.799 --> 00:15:09.080 I don't think folks realized how many there were out there. Oh if you're 201 00:15:09.120 --> 00:15:13.919 not if you're not caught, people think, figure, I'm gonna get my 202 00:15:13.960 --> 00:15:16.840 way no matter what I mean. For goodness, say, but now you 203 00:15:16.960 --> 00:15:24.080 have to walk around assuming that you are on camera. Yeah, so go 204 00:15:24.120 --> 00:15:26.480 ahead and scratch that itch, but be judicious about how you do it, 205 00:15:26.879 --> 00:15:33.240 because somebody is watching you. And that's why, because there are enough bad 206 00:15:33.279 --> 00:15:39.519 people out there that people think they have to film everything they do because if 207 00:15:39.559 --> 00:15:43.720 they don't, the narrative can get turned around. I mean, there was 208 00:15:43.720 --> 00:15:46.200 this, you know, touching on this whole same thing as well. And 209 00:15:46.240 --> 00:15:48.360 this was like half a year ago or a year ago. I don't know 210 00:15:48.360 --> 00:15:52.679 if you guys saw it out there, but it was great stuff. And 211 00:15:52.720 --> 00:15:54.679 I don't know, I don't think we ever touched on this. It was 212 00:15:54.799 --> 00:15:58.559 great stuff. Man. So a guy in his own building, an African 213 00:15:58.559 --> 00:16:03.919 American guy, is walking home, is parking and walking up to the building 214 00:16:04.519 --> 00:16:07.799 to go home. Well, it's the home of other people too, because 215 00:16:07.799 --> 00:16:11.960 it's one of these mini sky rises, let's say, and they have pool 216 00:16:12.039 --> 00:16:17.639 on the top or whatever that case. And he's just one of the tenants 217 00:16:17.720 --> 00:16:22.960 or residence or whatever the hell. He walks up and a lady, white 218 00:16:22.080 --> 00:16:26.120 lady says, what are you doing? Who are you here to see? 219 00:16:26.360 --> 00:16:33.919 And she put herself in between him entry, and he said it very calmly, 220 00:16:33.200 --> 00:16:37.240 lady, I live here. And he kept going no, no, 221 00:16:37.240 --> 00:16:40.279 no, sir, sir. Who are you? Who are you sir? 222 00:16:40.320 --> 00:16:44.000 And he says, lady, I just told you I live here, you 223 00:16:44.039 --> 00:16:47.120 know, And so he did the he went in and stuff, wait, 224 00:16:47.120 --> 00:16:48.480 wait, wait a second, sir, what's your name sir? And she 225 00:16:48.600 --> 00:16:52.279 kept so the whole video he decided to film because he's like, this is 226 00:16:52.320 --> 00:16:56.200 whacked and he knows. Probably since he's a black guy, he probably thought 227 00:16:56.320 --> 00:17:00.960 this is not good. Because this lady ends calling and the cop goes desserved 228 00:17:02.039 --> 00:17:06.519 for some reason. He's had a bad donut, you know, And and 229 00:17:06.559 --> 00:17:08.160 I'm done, I'm done in and you know, at least we have the 230 00:17:08.160 --> 00:17:11.200 proof. I mean, it's it's something to think about. Yeah, sure, 231 00:17:11.640 --> 00:17:18.200 Well, so she followed him into the freaking elevator. Filmed on the 232 00:17:18.200 --> 00:17:19.880 elevator, ma'am, I already. Why don't you just leave me alone? 233 00:17:21.039 --> 00:17:23.400 Ma'am? What is it? Because I'm black, he said, And she 234 00:17:23.440 --> 00:17:26.160 says, no, it's not. I've never seen you around here and who 235 00:17:26.279 --> 00:17:30.240 you're this is, And the lady was freaking going crazy, um all the 236 00:17:30.279 --> 00:17:36.160 way up, all the way to his Once he got to the apartment door, 237 00:17:36.960 --> 00:17:40.400 she was still, and he does the thing to open the door, 238 00:17:40.519 --> 00:17:41.920 and then she was like, well, you should have told me. You 239 00:17:42.039 --> 00:17:45.640 know, she was like figuring something because what it is is that, you 240 00:17:45.759 --> 00:17:49.240 know, she was so wrapped in her whatever dilemma she you know, who 241 00:17:49.319 --> 00:17:52.640 knows if she saw you know, Cagney and Lacy early And though I don't 242 00:17:52.680 --> 00:17:56.240 know what the story is, but the thing is that she took it to 243 00:17:56.440 --> 00:18:00.480 that level. And I get it, she's never seen the guy, But 244 00:18:00.599 --> 00:18:03.039 come on, what do you what do you what are you really? You 245 00:18:03.160 --> 00:18:06.759 know? Yeah, I got an idea. How about you just mind your 246 00:18:06.759 --> 00:18:11.319 own damn business. The guy's no threat to you. But yeah, entitlement 247 00:18:11.440 --> 00:18:15.039 does that to people. They don't want to admit they're wrong, and they'll 248 00:18:15.160 --> 00:18:19.200 double down on the stupid to try to prove themselves right. I just don't 249 00:18:19.319 --> 00:18:23.279 get it. I just don't understand it. Number one, mind your own 250 00:18:23.319 --> 00:18:27.960 damn business. He's not hurting you, he's no threat to you. Don't 251 00:18:29.000 --> 00:18:33.920 worry about it. If you're nervous about something. If he's somebody who looks 252 00:18:33.960 --> 00:18:37.519 like he's some evildoer fixing a break into something, call the authorities. Don't 253 00:18:37.559 --> 00:18:44.319 confront yourself by yourself. This guy was harmless and not a threat to anybody. 254 00:18:44.839 --> 00:18:48.400 But she was taking a fifty fifty risk there, well she was. 255 00:18:48.079 --> 00:18:52.200 How does she know? I mean, if she really honestly thought this guy 256 00:18:52.440 --> 00:18:56.720 was some evildoer out to cause any trouble, what would prevent him from turning 257 00:18:56.759 --> 00:19:00.920 around, backhanding her and dragging her off somewhere. But you know, then, 258 00:19:02.119 --> 00:19:03.680 now that you're saying that. Now that you're saying that, and this 259 00:19:03.839 --> 00:19:07.359 is a this is a weird thing I'm gonna say, But now that you're 260 00:19:07.400 --> 00:19:12.400 saying that, in reality, what you're saying is so true, and why 261 00:19:12.519 --> 00:19:17.960 put yourself at Riz especially? And she's not like a little teeny bopper. 262 00:19:18.039 --> 00:19:21.000 So it's not like she's I don't want to say she's not stupid, but 263 00:19:21.480 --> 00:19:25.720 it's not like she hasn't had It's not like she's not road worn, you 264 00:19:25.799 --> 00:19:27.839 know what I'm saying. She's traveled some miles. And so here's the thing. 265 00:19:29.559 --> 00:19:33.480 What if and I know this is a stretch, if they concocted this 266 00:19:33.759 --> 00:19:37.839 as a a what would you call it that we call it on on YouTube 267 00:19:37.440 --> 00:19:41.880 clickbait? What if it was some sort of scheme, dramatic thing to create 268 00:19:41.960 --> 00:19:45.200 a little drug Well no, that couldn't be. Yeah, like a set 269 00:19:45.279 --> 00:19:48.759 up just to get on TV and make it national and for someone. But 270 00:19:48.880 --> 00:19:52.799 that would put her in such a bad light that nobody wouldn't also forget that 271 00:19:52.000 --> 00:19:59.079 happened. Would people set stuff up? I'm just trying to get well, 272 00:19:59.240 --> 00:20:02.359 I'm trying to get a around the fact that this lady that that you just 273 00:20:02.480 --> 00:20:07.559 said, how would she If she's so fearful, why would you approach? 274 00:20:07.000 --> 00:20:11.039 Yeah, why would you confront? Right? If she doesn't, she's never 275 00:20:11.119 --> 00:20:15.599 seen this guy before, and the skin color doesn't enter into it. If 276 00:20:15.799 --> 00:20:21.319 you see somebody who I think it did to her along, well yeah, 277 00:20:21.359 --> 00:20:23.480 okay, it did to her, But I'm saying, you know, in 278 00:20:23.559 --> 00:20:29.000 the overall scheme of things, skin color doesn't matter. If you've seen see 279 00:20:29.079 --> 00:20:33.119 somebody who looks quote unquote unsavory to you or you think might be a threat, 280 00:20:33.319 --> 00:20:38.240 why the heck would you approach him? If you are that nervous or 281 00:20:38.359 --> 00:20:44.079 that worried, you know who to call? You contact the authorities and let 282 00:20:44.160 --> 00:20:51.319 them sort it out. It's not your job to investigate somebody's reason for being 283 00:20:51.720 --> 00:20:55.799 anywhere. That's right, it's not your job. You know where that lady 284 00:20:55.839 --> 00:21:00.440 would fit well in what society? Society she'd fit because they are. It's 285 00:21:00.559 --> 00:21:07.440 the structure of it is. You have your your block eye out for troublemakers 286 00:21:07.519 --> 00:21:11.799 that might that might you know, make some noise and they ring up the 287 00:21:11.920 --> 00:21:17.359 higher up and then they do a whole you know, scouring of the So 288 00:21:17.519 --> 00:21:19.799 this lady would fit right in, and that kind of attitude, you know 289 00:21:21.640 --> 00:21:26.519 in your business all the time, full throttle, comply. I don't know. 290 00:21:26.599 --> 00:21:30.200 I just don't get it. I really don't get it. If you're 291 00:21:30.240 --> 00:21:33.920 that worried about this guy, why the heck would you even talk to him? 292 00:21:33.279 --> 00:21:38.160 Go call the police, contact the building super whatever. It's just like, 293 00:21:38.359 --> 00:21:42.920 I know people who will get in the left lane and stay in the 294 00:21:44.079 --> 00:21:47.039 left lane. I'm like, you know, you're block in traffic right while 295 00:21:47.039 --> 00:21:49.519 people aren't supposed to be going faster than the speed limit anyway. Like, 296 00:21:49.720 --> 00:21:53.440 dude, that's not your job. That's what the police are for, because 297 00:21:53.440 --> 00:21:57.119 you don't know what emergency might be occurring that somebody has to keep going for. 298 00:21:57.440 --> 00:22:00.599 It could be a number of things. It's just not that's not your 299 00:22:00.720 --> 00:22:04.319 job business. I'll be honest with you, though, I'll be honest with 300 00:22:04.400 --> 00:22:10.079 you. I have. I've been that guy on the left lane. And 301 00:22:10.400 --> 00:22:12.000 because I'm in my own world when I'm doing some sort of you know, 302 00:22:12.559 --> 00:22:17.000 and I'll have the blinkers and I'll say, oh, I don't say hey, 303 00:22:17.079 --> 00:22:19.319 you scumbag, why or to back off. I'm king of the road 304 00:22:19.400 --> 00:22:22.599 around here. No, I don't do that. You know. What I've 305 00:22:22.599 --> 00:22:26.160 always done is that I see that I'm like, okay, my next chance 306 00:22:26.240 --> 00:22:29.240 to move over. I just realize, okay, excuse like I even say 307 00:22:29.279 --> 00:22:33.240 it without him even being sorry, Like I realize, you know what, 308 00:22:33.279 --> 00:22:37.559 I've been that guy. Yeah, well you know, and everybody does it. 309 00:22:37.960 --> 00:22:41.240 But what I'm getting at is is, and I've seen a couple of 310 00:22:41.240 --> 00:22:44.799 people. I don't know anybody personally who's done it, but I have seen 311 00:22:44.839 --> 00:22:51.240 a couple of people who will actually intentionally speed up slightly to get in front 312 00:22:51.279 --> 00:22:55.279 of somebody, get in front of him, and then slow down to slow 313 00:22:55.400 --> 00:22:59.240 them down to the speed limit, or see somebody coming up behind him and 314 00:22:59.440 --> 00:23:03.400 get over in the lane to block them, to slow them down. Because 315 00:23:03.400 --> 00:23:08.599 those are little many conquests, little accomplishments that they're not until you find out 316 00:23:08.680 --> 00:23:14.039 that that guy was rushing his kid to the hospital, right exactly. See. 317 00:23:14.200 --> 00:23:17.440 See, that's the whole thing with human beings. And none of your 318 00:23:17.519 --> 00:23:21.400 business, is my point. That's not your job, that's the cops job. 319 00:23:21.640 --> 00:23:25.480 You have a phone. Everybody has a phone. I'm with you one 320 00:23:25.519 --> 00:23:26.799 hundred percent on that. I mean, it's like, and you know, 321 00:23:26.960 --> 00:23:30.640 and then there's the factor of that we are humans, so all things being 322 00:23:30.720 --> 00:23:36.480 equal, everybody has off days. And it's in that it's just the reoccurring, 323 00:23:37.039 --> 00:23:38.839 you know, and there's people out there that just get a kick out 324 00:23:38.880 --> 00:23:44.400 of screwing other people over, and those are the people that are total pieces 325 00:23:44.480 --> 00:23:48.640 of dog, you know what, exactly, it's none of your business. 326 00:23:48.160 --> 00:23:52.880 Don't worry about it. If you feel that strongly about it, call a 327 00:23:53.000 --> 00:23:57.920 cop. But it's not your job to slow people down on the highway. 328 00:23:59.480 --> 00:24:06.680 That's not your job trampled underfoot. I did have a topic that I wanted 329 00:24:06.720 --> 00:24:11.400 to bring up that kind of dovetailed into last week's show in kind of an 330 00:24:11.440 --> 00:24:18.319 oblique way. We were talking about how I thought cooking shows and cooking channels 331 00:24:18.359 --> 00:24:22.920 on YouTube were going to be big because people starting to get more into self 332 00:24:22.039 --> 00:24:30.640 reliant and that the channels that showed how to do some of the simple things 333 00:24:30.720 --> 00:24:33.839 that we were never really taught, we're gonna get popular. Well, I 334 00:24:33.960 --> 00:24:37.079 have an example, and I want to know if you'd heard of this guy. 335 00:24:37.559 --> 00:24:42.559 I don't know the gentleman's name, but he started a YouTube channel and 336 00:24:42.680 --> 00:24:48.799 it's called Dad. How do I Basically the guy's story is he had a 337 00:24:48.920 --> 00:24:55.559 real hard life growing up. His mother and father got divorced, his mother 338 00:24:55.799 --> 00:25:00.039 moved back to Kansas. They lived in Washington State. When this guy I 339 00:25:00.160 --> 00:25:03.200 was fourteen years old, his father just said, basically, I'm done with 340 00:25:03.359 --> 00:25:07.599 kids and just walked out and left him and his brothers. So he basically 341 00:25:07.359 --> 00:25:12.599 from age fourteen up didn't have a father in his life. So he had 342 00:25:12.680 --> 00:25:17.720 to learn a bunch of things, a bunch of the basic things, just 343 00:25:18.039 --> 00:25:22.160 through trial and error, and then learned him from friends in his adult life. 344 00:25:22.680 --> 00:25:26.319 And he started a YouTube channel. He only has I just checked it, 345 00:25:26.880 --> 00:25:33.799 fifteen YouTube videos up. And these are videos that are like, how 346 00:25:33.880 --> 00:25:38.279 to fix most running toilets, how to check your car's oil, how to 347 00:25:38.440 --> 00:25:42.400 change a tire, how to tie a tie, how to iron a dress 348 00:25:42.480 --> 00:25:49.920 shirt, things like that. Somebody found his channel and posted it on Reddit. 349 00:25:51.039 --> 00:25:53.519 He said, this guy is teaching you the stuff you were never taught. 350 00:25:55.160 --> 00:26:00.880 He posted his first video April second. He is sitting now at one 351 00:26:00.000 --> 00:26:07.160 point nine eight million subscribers. He has fifteen videos. When he hit four 352 00:26:07.279 --> 00:26:12.720 hundred thousand subscribers, he put out a thank you video. He's completely overwhelmed. 353 00:26:12.759 --> 00:26:19.440 He had absolutely no idea what was going on. Yeah, YouTube put 354 00:26:19.640 --> 00:26:26.079 that video on the trending page and the next day. He got five hundred 355 00:26:26.160 --> 00:26:36.039 thousand subscribers new subscribers that day. And if you read through the comments on 356 00:26:36.240 --> 00:26:40.359 some of these videos, how do you check the how to check the air 357 00:26:40.440 --> 00:26:44.359 pressure and your tires, how to hang a shelf, things like that, 358 00:26:44.880 --> 00:26:52.039 the comments are nothing but positive, supportive, thank you's, stuff like that. 359 00:26:52.880 --> 00:26:57.039 This guy has blown up and it's the most basic stuff you can imagine, 360 00:26:57.599 --> 00:27:03.680 and I really honestly, And they're not long videos. His longest video 361 00:27:03.920 --> 00:27:07.680 is how to change a tire or no excuse me, how to put up 362 00:27:07.680 --> 00:27:11.240 a shelf, It's twenty minutes long, But like how to check your car's 363 00:27:11.279 --> 00:27:15.559 oil it's a four minute video. Unclogged a sink is nine minutes fifty eight 364 00:27:15.640 --> 00:27:18.799 seconds. These are short videos that just focus on the basics, and people 365 00:27:18.920 --> 00:27:23.079 are eating this stuff up. There is a demand out there for it, 366 00:27:23.599 --> 00:27:30.119 and it's encouraging to me for a couple of reasons. Number One, he's 367 00:27:30.119 --> 00:27:34.599 a personable guy, but the guy is filling a need in that how do 368 00:27:34.759 --> 00:27:38.319 you tie a tie? You know, anybody who's wont to class a uniform 369 00:27:38.400 --> 00:27:41.839 in the military knows how to tie a tie. But I would venture to 370 00:27:41.880 --> 00:27:47.039 say a good percentage of the population is never tied one or ironed a dress 371 00:27:47.039 --> 00:27:49.559 shirt. Who irons anything anymore? Well, you know, if you got 372 00:27:49.599 --> 00:27:53.599 an interview tomorrow, you might need to. And that's the kind of stuff. 373 00:27:53.839 --> 00:27:57.880 So it's all. It's one hundred percent positive and the guys feel filling 374 00:27:57.920 --> 00:28:04.720 a need and it's just blowing up. In fifty five days from his first 375 00:28:04.920 --> 00:28:11.839 video, he hit a million subscribers fifty five days. So that's saying something 376 00:28:12.720 --> 00:28:17.839 I've got. I've got my my thoughts on this. So I'm thinking that 377 00:28:17.960 --> 00:28:23.559 the following, notwithstanding his personality on camera, which I don't know but I 378 00:28:23.640 --> 00:28:30.960 could imagine, and the topics and the helpful because you know, anything that 379 00:28:30.559 --> 00:28:36.599 that you share can be helpful to someone out there. There's a but here's 380 00:28:36.640 --> 00:28:40.680 the lesson that I've you know, from this. All it takes is one 381 00:28:40.799 --> 00:28:45.200 dude that has connections to toss your your video out there and with a little 382 00:28:45.200 --> 00:28:48.799 bit of luck, you can you can go places. But as far as 383 00:28:48.920 --> 00:28:53.480 because here's the thing, you also have people that eat potato chips and play 384 00:28:53.559 --> 00:29:00.200 video games one handed while they're scratching their left cheek on their face and they 385 00:29:00.599 --> 00:29:04.880 hit you know, they hit astronomical. You know, numbers and whatnot, 386 00:29:04.960 --> 00:29:07.440 so it's all hit or miss. But yes, the value of what you 387 00:29:07.559 --> 00:29:14.359 just said in the simplicity is sometimes it's it's overlooked. And I guess we 388 00:29:14.440 --> 00:29:17.559 would be surprised at how many things I know, how many things I don't 389 00:29:17.640 --> 00:29:21.079 know? Well, yeah, I don't know how many things I don't know. 390 00:29:21.200 --> 00:29:23.480 Let's put it that way. That's just it. We don't know what 391 00:29:23.640 --> 00:29:29.920 we don't know. But when you go look and you see this stuff. 392 00:29:30.000 --> 00:29:33.480 I mean, he posted a video, this is an example. This is 393 00:29:33.519 --> 00:29:37.200 a new thing for him. He's calling it tool Tuesday, and he's it's 394 00:29:37.240 --> 00:29:42.160 a four minute video on pliers. Okay, fine, he posted it five 395 00:29:42.240 --> 00:29:48.119 hours it's got fifty one thousand views. Now that might be discouraging to guys 396 00:29:48.279 --> 00:29:52.960 like you and me, who post videos all the time. I post a 397 00:29:52.079 --> 00:29:56.559 video a week and to see somebody post get fifty one thousand views in five 398 00:29:56.640 --> 00:30:00.599 hours might be a little bit discouraging. But on the other hand, it 399 00:30:00.920 --> 00:30:07.240 is very encouraging because the guy is filling a need. I mean, you 400 00:30:07.359 --> 00:30:11.880 and I both use speed squares in would work it, but do we really 401 00:30:12.000 --> 00:30:17.000 understand how they work, how to use one to figure out the rise and 402 00:30:17.240 --> 00:30:22.559 run of a set of steps, or how to figure out the slope of 403 00:30:22.640 --> 00:30:27.359 a roof. I mean, all that stuff is built in there. Everything 404 00:30:27.519 --> 00:30:33.279 that's every little mark on a square has a purpose. It's not there to 405 00:30:33.359 --> 00:30:37.559 be pretty, but very few people know how they work. It's kind of 406 00:30:37.720 --> 00:30:41.960 encouraging to see somebody take the lead on something like that and just start teaching 407 00:30:41.000 --> 00:30:45.799 the simple stuff that everybody's dad should have taught them. But that's hard to 408 00:30:45.880 --> 00:30:51.200 do if your dad doesn't know. Yeah, somebody's got to pass along the 409 00:30:52.039 --> 00:30:56.960 information, right, And if you don't have a dad, or your dad 410 00:30:56.039 --> 00:31:00.400 doesn't know, you know, there's a whole slew of things if you don't 411 00:31:00.400 --> 00:31:04.359 have a dad. That at least for my understanding of having a dad. 412 00:31:04.920 --> 00:31:08.200 Like the tie thing you said, I didn't know how to tie a tie 413 00:31:08.480 --> 00:31:11.039 until one day I needed it because I was going to go out on a 414 00:31:11.160 --> 00:31:18.440 fancy schmancy thing. Forget it was probably a graduation ball or some sort of 415 00:31:18.519 --> 00:31:22.319 thing with a girlfriend, and I forget the exact moment, but I asked 416 00:31:22.359 --> 00:31:27.119 my daddy says, come over, your son, and then he knew the 417 00:31:27.400 --> 00:31:33.519 names of all these configurations of ties. This is the I don't know the 418 00:31:33.680 --> 00:31:41.000 Rothchild style, and this is the Valentino not and I'm like a double winder. 419 00:31:41.960 --> 00:31:45.799 So he taught me one that I've always remembered, and that's the one 420 00:31:48.000 --> 00:31:51.000 that I always use. And it works just fine. It gets to your 421 00:31:51.039 --> 00:31:53.000 little triangle and it gets to your whole thing. I don't even know what 422 00:31:53.079 --> 00:31:56.079 it's called at this point. He showed me a few times, and they 423 00:31:56.160 --> 00:31:59.680 put me in front of the mirror and he put the tie and he said 424 00:31:59.680 --> 00:32:02.839 it right like this, like this, and that simple act. And at 425 00:32:02.880 --> 00:32:07.400 the moment, I just wanted the problem solved. And as an adult looking 426 00:32:07.480 --> 00:32:14.039 back, what great gift that a father. You know, many that are 427 00:32:14.200 --> 00:32:19.279 untangible or not. You know, you can't you can't quantify it. You 428 00:32:19.359 --> 00:32:23.319 know, we're we're we're sitting here being goofy and kind of But how old 429 00:32:23.400 --> 00:32:30.240 were you as a maker when you discovered that little slot on the metal end 430 00:32:30.279 --> 00:32:35.200 of a tape measure was there to hook over a nail so that you could 431 00:32:35.319 --> 00:32:37.720 drive a nail in the end of something and pull it and take your measurement. 432 00:32:38.240 --> 00:32:42.440 Yeah, my dad taught me a lot of those things when I was 433 00:32:42.480 --> 00:32:45.039 a kid, but I never used it. I never used taught me all 434 00:32:45.079 --> 00:32:49.559 the things, but I used it, or why the tip of a tape 435 00:32:49.640 --> 00:32:53.720 measure is loose that way, you know, for taking inside measurements and then 436 00:32:53.839 --> 00:32:59.599 pulling for outside measurements. That's why it's the same that wiggle is the same 437 00:32:59.680 --> 00:33:04.359 as the thickness of that little metal tip. If nobody told you that, 438 00:33:05.079 --> 00:33:09.000 you go your whole life and not know unless you needed it or cut everything 439 00:33:09.160 --> 00:33:15.200 just slightly wrong, unless you needed it or or had that problem that you 440 00:33:15.279 --> 00:33:19.359 had to see a lot of things. I mean, you know what, 441 00:33:19.519 --> 00:33:22.960 We don't go out in the world knowing like I didn't learn guitar by somebody 442 00:33:23.039 --> 00:33:29.279 teaching me. I absolutely did not, Right, It's not fully true because 443 00:33:29.640 --> 00:33:32.960 at the same time, though I didn't have somebody with me. When I 444 00:33:34.079 --> 00:33:37.440 came to a situation that I wanted, like, you know, I want 445 00:33:37.480 --> 00:33:40.359 to play this song, and I didn't know how to get to play that 446 00:33:40.480 --> 00:33:45.640 song. I looked for the tools. I myself searched in the what we 447 00:33:45.759 --> 00:33:50.839 had at the time to figure out how, oh that's a B seven chord, 448 00:33:51.519 --> 00:33:53.200 So I need a B seven chord to get to that, so that 449 00:33:53.319 --> 00:33:59.319 the song and then I'd practiced the B and so you'll you'll find you'll search 450 00:33:59.440 --> 00:34:01.680 the tools. What's somebody has to have the information out there, right, 451 00:34:01.880 --> 00:34:07.200 So you could be a curious person and be able to problem solve or at 452 00:34:07.240 --> 00:34:10.719 least go in the right direction. You knew to exist, you knew where 453 00:34:10.760 --> 00:34:16.079 to go to get a mail mail Bay Chord book. You might not buy 454 00:34:16.119 --> 00:34:19.679 it, but you can open the page and go, okay, those figures 455 00:34:19.760 --> 00:34:22.840 go there. Well yeah, I mean, I mean that's the whole that's 456 00:34:22.840 --> 00:34:27.559 the whole thing about it. You know, um that that if you're a 457 00:34:27.679 --> 00:34:30.880 curious person, And here's the thing, if you learn wrong, or if 458 00:34:30.920 --> 00:34:36.840 you go about doing something like taking the long road to get there, you 459 00:34:36.920 --> 00:34:39.360 could use a little bit of knowledge that will make you do things, you 460 00:34:39.480 --> 00:34:44.960 know, accomplish it easier. So there's always you know, and I've been 461 00:34:44.960 --> 00:34:49.239 the kind of person that's usually learned things the hard way, always putting, 462 00:34:49.400 --> 00:34:52.480 putting up against it until I figure it out, which it doesn't save time. 463 00:34:53.320 --> 00:34:59.039 But you well, but you knew the information was out there. Maybe 464 00:34:59.039 --> 00:35:01.320 you didn't know the name of it, maybe you didn't know exactly what it 465 00:35:01.480 --> 00:35:06.360 was called, but you knew that the information was out there somewhere. Somebody 466 00:35:06.440 --> 00:35:09.800 had already done it, so you knew you had to look. If you 467 00:35:10.159 --> 00:35:15.159 don't know what those marks on the side of a speed square mean, you 468 00:35:15.239 --> 00:35:17.119 don't know where to look to find it. Well, I guess what I'm 469 00:35:17.159 --> 00:35:22.840 getting at is is if you've never had a clogged sink, you wouldn't really 470 00:35:22.039 --> 00:35:28.119 need to know. Dad, how do I YouTube channel? Until you get 471 00:35:28.199 --> 00:35:30.360 on there one day and you search I got a clogged sink and that video 472 00:35:30.519 --> 00:35:35.800 comes up. Because how to Unclog a Sink is sitting at two hundred and 473 00:35:35.880 --> 00:35:39.719 forty four thousand views, It's gonna be one of the videos that pops up. 474 00:35:40.440 --> 00:35:45.320 Well, see that's that's a good point too. We have YouTube to 475 00:35:45.480 --> 00:35:50.039 tep it right. You also have to know what to look for, because 476 00:35:50.199 --> 00:35:55.159 I am so sure if you if there's such an amount of information out there 477 00:35:55.400 --> 00:36:00.480 to learn just about anything, that you can find it, but you yourself 478 00:36:00.559 --> 00:36:05.840 have to be and it doesn't happen until you have you come across the problem 479 00:36:06.599 --> 00:36:10.239 or you want to get to a solution for something that you're on the road 480 00:36:10.719 --> 00:36:15.199 discovering. As long as you've got that curiosity push, you can find your 481 00:36:15.239 --> 00:36:22.000 way nowadays much more easier, at least knowledge base. But that emotional thing 482 00:36:22.079 --> 00:36:23.280 like the father thing you were saying without a father of this, and that 483 00:36:23.960 --> 00:36:30.599 there are things that you can't get from obviously from a YouTube video or a 484 00:36:30.760 --> 00:36:35.280 book, or you could get the notion of it if you're so developed to 485 00:36:35.480 --> 00:36:38.679 that certain slant. But the idea of having you know, let's say, 486 00:36:38.679 --> 00:36:43.880 a parent, you know in the house is you know, we're talking dad's 487 00:36:43.920 --> 00:36:49.599 a dad, it's you can there's it's an unparalleled to anything else because there's 488 00:36:49.719 --> 00:36:53.800 all these other things structure, don't do that son, or ay you're you 489 00:36:53.880 --> 00:36:58.159 know, you can't go out or even though it sounds like a crappy deal 490 00:36:58.239 --> 00:37:01.000 for the kid at the moment, there's lessons to be learned from it because 491 00:37:01.360 --> 00:37:06.559 I did this and this was a consequence. And and this is not to 492 00:37:06.639 --> 00:37:10.000 take anything away from mom's either, because moms are I mean, there's probably 493 00:37:10.079 --> 00:37:13.920 a ton of moms out there that could tell you how to stop her running 494 00:37:14.000 --> 00:37:16.280 toilet, or how to check the oil in your car or something like that. 495 00:37:17.320 --> 00:37:21.320 But moms can't tell you how to shave. They can't teach you how 496 00:37:21.360 --> 00:37:25.000 to shave your face. I'll see you're you're coupled with Mike. But you 497 00:37:25.119 --> 00:37:30.920 know, can't tell you. She can mop you on the leg thing. 498 00:37:31.039 --> 00:37:36.559 So if you're a swimmer, she's got your back. Well everyway, talking 499 00:37:36.599 --> 00:37:39.760 about backs, moms, some moms can teach you how to shave your back. 500 00:37:40.239 --> 00:37:45.719 Yeah, you didn't mention back, and I just want to, don't. 501 00:37:45.760 --> 00:37:51.159 You folks just want to go through his dating history. I didn't, 502 00:37:52.000 --> 00:37:59.920 Mom, I need to shave my back. We know more than we think 503 00:38:00.119 --> 00:38:06.280 we know, but we know less than we expect we know. And sometimes 504 00:38:06.360 --> 00:38:10.000 it's the littlest things that you just you know. Okay, holy crap, 505 00:38:10.119 --> 00:38:14.480 Now how do I do that? Hey? When you said when you said, 506 00:38:15.519 --> 00:38:19.360 he said dating history, you know what popped? Do you remember the 507 00:38:19.400 --> 00:38:27.519 Adams family? Remember that that carpet creature wasn't yet. This is my date, 508 00:38:27.639 --> 00:38:31.199 Melinda. You see, let me part your your let me part part 509 00:38:31.239 --> 00:38:37.679 your whiskers. You say, Hi, I promise I'll bring her home before 510 00:38:37.800 --> 00:38:42.480 twelve gar ownteed, Well, don't feed her after god night, and don't 511 00:38:42.519 --> 00:38:45.480 get her wet. Don't don't do not get her wet. Don't let her 512 00:38:45.519 --> 00:38:50.960 out in the rain. Oh, people who have never seen the movie have 513 00:38:51.280 --> 00:38:54.440 no idea what you and I are talking about. Um, we were so 514 00:38:54.599 --> 00:38:58.440 the movie that we're talking about, will leave it. Well, you know 515 00:38:58.519 --> 00:39:00.920 what, if you want to know what movie movie that was, I'm gonna 516 00:39:00.960 --> 00:39:05.159 go ahead and when you guys hear this, I'm gonna go ahead and post 517 00:39:05.239 --> 00:39:13.079 that on our Trampled Underfoot Podcast Facebook page and you can find out what actually 518 00:39:13.280 --> 00:39:15.679 we're talking about. Well, no, I'm grabbing a photo. It's going 519 00:39:15.760 --> 00:39:21.800 to be an actual poster. Oh okay from the from the movie. Yeah, 520 00:39:22.079 --> 00:39:24.679 so we won't mention what movie that is. See, I just mentioned 521 00:39:24.679 --> 00:39:30.239 it's a movie, so I kind of screwed it up. That's we both 522 00:39:30.280 --> 00:39:34.159 already said it was a movie. By the way, talking about movies, 523 00:39:34.400 --> 00:39:40.039 and I don't mean to rehash old quarrels among amongst ourselves, but a long 524 00:39:40.119 --> 00:39:45.880 while ago we were on the subject of you know, you are a cultural 525 00:39:45.119 --> 00:39:50.519 infidel, Yes I am, and that you had never or not never. 526 00:39:50.559 --> 00:39:53.639 I'm sorry, that's I'm going totally like the exaggerated way that you had not 527 00:39:53.920 --> 00:39:59.679 seen a movie since your last movie, which uh in nineteen eighty eight. 528 00:39:59.760 --> 00:40:04.199 I it was, and it was the last movie I saw in a theater 529 00:40:04.480 --> 00:40:07.239 was The rain Man, right, And I was totally shocked about that, 530 00:40:07.639 --> 00:40:12.079 you know, and I was trying to find somebody that could beat your record. 531 00:40:12.639 --> 00:40:15.239 I've not been able to find a person yet, but I'm sure there's 532 00:40:15.280 --> 00:40:17.039 plenty of people. It's not like you know, there's I haven't been in 533 00:40:17.360 --> 00:40:22.079 quite a while. But I was thinking the other day about are that kind 534 00:40:22.159 --> 00:40:28.599 of thing, because there's certain little phrases that are repeat enjoyment things that pop 535 00:40:28.719 --> 00:40:31.280 up. There's one that I can't mention live, but another one is the 536 00:40:31.320 --> 00:40:37.760 cultural infidel one. And I was thinking that in one episode I had told 537 00:40:37.840 --> 00:40:40.760 you something to the effect of, oh, dude, there's this movie and 538 00:40:40.840 --> 00:40:45.920 it's called Idiocracy, and it's this, and it's that and this and that, 539 00:40:45.079 --> 00:40:49.119 and I think that and I don't know why I was thinking this, 540 00:40:49.239 --> 00:40:52.280 but I just popped through my in my head, and I think that you 541 00:40:52.480 --> 00:40:59.400 did go ahead and watch, which I did not. I don't think that 542 00:40:59.519 --> 00:41:01.800 I had to a justted you to or considered it a good movie for you 543 00:41:01.920 --> 00:41:06.880 to watch. I just thought that the premise was good. And I think 544 00:41:06.960 --> 00:41:10.719 that I ruined you watching movies from that point. An't even worse because of 545 00:41:10.960 --> 00:41:16.360 how crappy of a movie that was. Look, I'll watch a movie it's 546 00:41:17.079 --> 00:41:21.760 got nothing to do with that, but it has to be a highly recommended 547 00:41:21.800 --> 00:41:24.679 one. It has to be a good one because my track record with movies 548 00:41:24.840 --> 00:41:30.440 is the more the critics love it and the more people rave about it, 549 00:41:31.079 --> 00:41:36.320 the more I know I'm gonna hate it, because that's been the track record. 550 00:41:36.599 --> 00:41:38.440 There have been a couple of exceptions. But yes, I did watch 551 00:41:38.519 --> 00:41:45.559 Idiocracy, and I'm with you. The premise was good, the execution was 552 00:41:45.400 --> 00:41:51.760 not so good. Yeah, it had a lot too. It wasn't the 553 00:41:51.880 --> 00:41:57.199 worst movie I've ever seen, but it was probably on the low end of 554 00:41:57.239 --> 00:42:00.760 the middle. But the idea that you would go into the future because you're 555 00:42:00.840 --> 00:42:06.519 stuck in a time capsule and you're propelled into the future or waiting their dormant 556 00:42:06.599 --> 00:42:09.360 or whatever the case might be, and then you suddenly arise, and what 557 00:42:09.559 --> 00:42:15.960 most people would consider and if you think of movies or popular culture back in 558 00:42:15.079 --> 00:42:21.719 the I don't know, thirties and forties and fifties, and how people looked 559 00:42:21.760 --> 00:42:24.440 at the future, it was always in advance and stuff. You know, 560 00:42:24.639 --> 00:42:28.360 it's always the future. It's going to be that great, and it's gonna 561 00:42:28.400 --> 00:42:31.320 be even better, and it's gonna be so frecking and but we never stop 562 00:42:31.360 --> 00:42:37.599 and think I don't think that what the future is totally. People are dumb, 563 00:42:37.159 --> 00:42:39.519 you know. I mean, you're as good as it gets, you 564 00:42:39.599 --> 00:42:45.039 know, And that's kind of I liked that angle of it that people were 565 00:42:45.119 --> 00:42:50.519 just as opposed to becoming better. They went They didn't even stop at where 566 00:42:50.559 --> 00:42:54.920 they were, They went backwards. And that concept is great. It the 567 00:42:55.440 --> 00:43:00.320 whole planet basically dumb down to the point to where it couldn't feed itself, 568 00:43:01.360 --> 00:43:07.639 to where just an average guy is. The genius was suddenly the smartest man 569 00:43:07.800 --> 00:43:12.639 on earth, and the number of things he didn't know were countless, but 570 00:43:13.320 --> 00:43:16.159 he was still smarter than all the rest of him, you know, an 571 00:43:16.239 --> 00:43:23.440 amazing thing. Dude trampled underfoot. I did have a little spell, like 572 00:43:23.719 --> 00:43:30.039 I do usually, a little surfing spell on the innerwebs, YouTube in particular, 573 00:43:30.400 --> 00:43:34.440 and I ran across one of my favorites, which is George Carlin. 574 00:43:35.039 --> 00:43:39.800 I ran across his sort of like nonconformist throw it all out the door, 575 00:43:40.199 --> 00:43:45.239 baby and bathwater. He has a lot of gems of knowledge that I totally 576 00:43:46.039 --> 00:43:50.960 just agree with him with, Like he's saying it and stuff, and he's 577 00:43:51.119 --> 00:43:54.199 you know, doing it within the joke, but he's he's offering some pretty 578 00:43:54.360 --> 00:44:00.360 significant, you know, strong you know, points of view that are right 579 00:44:00.480 --> 00:44:06.320 on at least concerning my my in my thoughts. And although this isn't one 580 00:44:06.360 --> 00:44:07.599 of them, but it kind of is. Well, actually it is one 581 00:44:07.599 --> 00:44:14.880 of them. The whole Earth doesn't need saving. Bit. That's not to 582 00:44:15.000 --> 00:44:20.159 say that you're driving down the highway and you take your freaking big mac wrapper 583 00:44:20.639 --> 00:44:24.400 and shake empty shake thing and you toss it into an alligator's mouth. You 584 00:44:24.519 --> 00:44:28.920 know, Well, it's not saying that you you know, you commit these, 585 00:44:29.639 --> 00:44:31.400 but you know, he did say something, and you guys out there 586 00:44:31.440 --> 00:44:36.480 had probably seen it, and he says, you know, the Earth is 587 00:44:36.559 --> 00:44:39.119 not threatened by you. You are not a threat. You're maybe a little 588 00:44:39.679 --> 00:44:49.840 surfaces that whole exchange with George Carlin, and that is gold because it's so 589 00:44:50.079 --> 00:44:53.480 true. Are we really well, go ahead? You know, he bought 590 00:44:53.519 --> 00:44:58.599 out said, he said the Earth is fine, the planet is fine. 591 00:44:59.440 --> 00:45:04.519 Weird screwed. Yeah, you're going. You're going by by, folks, 592 00:45:04.679 --> 00:45:08.199 pack your stuff. He does it. And it's so true though, the 593 00:45:08.599 --> 00:45:15.480 audacity and ego bloated ego of us thinking, well, so he says, 594 00:45:15.599 --> 00:45:22.760 save the planet. The sheer audacity and arrogance of that, and I get 595 00:45:22.800 --> 00:45:28.159 it, like we don't want, you know, pouring fricking sludge into our 596 00:45:28.519 --> 00:45:35.199 rivers and stuff. That's not but the whole over indulgence of self righteousness and 597 00:45:35.320 --> 00:45:42.000 this and that when really we're exposed to the elements of this planet and there 598 00:45:42.199 --> 00:45:45.519 is no mercy and it's just so true. So yeah, I agree with 599 00:45:45.719 --> 00:45:52.239 you, And I paraphrased him for years on that very subject, and I 600 00:45:52.519 --> 00:45:58.800 ended up just finally boiling it down to my own little saying is, don't 601 00:45:58.880 --> 00:46:01.280 pee in the pool, but we can still get in the water, clean 602 00:46:01.360 --> 00:46:07.119 up after yourself, don't be a slob, and mind your own business. 603 00:46:07.840 --> 00:46:14.599 You know, if you have people out there screaming save the planet, Save 604 00:46:14.679 --> 00:46:17.440 the planet, Save the planet, and there's some of the biggest slabs walking 605 00:46:17.679 --> 00:46:22.679 the planet, that is one category of many that you can pick there. 606 00:46:23.159 --> 00:46:30.239 In my opinion, there's a certain personality type human trait, and we all 607 00:46:30.360 --> 00:46:36.400 have variations of certain traits. They cross pollinate in people, but in some 608 00:46:36.559 --> 00:46:42.320 people it outshines and stuff. This whole notion of having to control everything that's 609 00:46:42.400 --> 00:46:47.440 none of your business to control, namely others, is such again using the 610 00:46:47.480 --> 00:46:54.519 same word arrogant, disgusting sort of concept. I need to control those entitled 611 00:46:55.039 --> 00:47:01.199 it's all about somebody should do something or they need to ban this. There 612 00:47:01.360 --> 00:47:07.360 was a big thing about and it's a legitimate claim about. And I'm sure 613 00:47:07.400 --> 00:47:09.599 you hear about it in Florida all the time. Fishing line and birds getting 614 00:47:09.599 --> 00:47:14.960 tangled up in fishing line. Yeah, that's a legitimate thing. My wife 615 00:47:15.079 --> 00:47:19.000 still thinks it's funny that when we're out fishing out at one of our lakes, 616 00:47:19.039 --> 00:47:21.840 if I see a piece of fishing line down on the ground, I'll 617 00:47:21.920 --> 00:47:24.039 just pick it up and start wadding it up. I'll go home with a 618 00:47:24.159 --> 00:47:30.239 tackle box full of old, nasty fishing line to throw away correctly so that 619 00:47:30.400 --> 00:47:34.719 it doesn't end up some bird tangled up in it and die in that way. 620 00:47:35.079 --> 00:47:40.360 Yeah. But to see people standing hip deep and that's an exaggeration in 621 00:47:40.760 --> 00:47:47.159 crap saying somebody needs to do something. My first attitude is, what about 622 00:47:47.239 --> 00:47:52.840 you? Why is it always somebody else that needs to do something? Why 623 00:47:52.079 --> 00:47:59.320 step over three candy wrappers to yell at somebody about how messy a parking lot 624 00:47:59.519 --> 00:48:04.119 is? It up and throw it in the trash can. The problem is 625 00:48:04.199 --> 00:48:07.559 solved, well, it's not my job to do that. No, it's 626 00:48:07.599 --> 00:48:10.039 not your job to walk around being a jerk either, but you don't seem 627 00:48:10.079 --> 00:48:15.320 to have a problem doing that. It comes back to those rules that every 628 00:48:15.440 --> 00:48:19.559 mom and dad should be teaching their kids. Keep your hands to yourself, 629 00:48:19.960 --> 00:48:23.960 leave other people's things alone, be nice to one another, mind your own 630 00:48:24.000 --> 00:48:29.800 business. And yet it's such a difficult rule for some people or a lot 631 00:48:29.880 --> 00:48:34.239 of people to follow. And it circles back to that lady with that guy 632 00:48:34.519 --> 00:48:37.559 when he's trying to get into his apartment. If she would mind her own 633 00:48:37.639 --> 00:48:43.079 business, be nice to people, there would have been zero issue. And 634 00:48:43.239 --> 00:48:45.440 the same thing with the lady and the dog. Now, the guy had 635 00:48:45.480 --> 00:48:52.119 a legitimate fear of the dog being off a leash. Are is it going 636 00:48:52.159 --> 00:48:55.639 to attack another animal or a kid or something like that. That's a legitimate 637 00:48:55.719 --> 00:49:00.360 concern. I mean it was. It was a poofy, poofy dog and 638 00:49:00.599 --> 00:49:04.360 it didn't look like But at the same time, you know, New York 639 00:49:04.519 --> 00:49:08.519 and whatever their rules in that particular, who knows, And he was mentioning 640 00:49:08.559 --> 00:49:12.920 that, I mean, I don't know. To me her reaction, which 641 00:49:13.039 --> 00:49:16.079 is all that we was caught. We don't know the previous was blown out 642 00:49:16.079 --> 00:49:19.400 of it. So I don't want to go ahead and say that the guy 643 00:49:19.599 --> 00:49:23.079 was like me personally, at the worst case scenario, if there's some sort 644 00:49:23.079 --> 00:49:29.400 of threat because of the dog leaving or getting hit or whatever the case might 645 00:49:29.440 --> 00:49:31.239 be, I'd say, man, be careful, this, this and that. 646 00:49:31.480 --> 00:49:35.639 But apart from that, I'm going to keep trucking because that's none of 647 00:49:35.719 --> 00:49:38.039 my business. Well, I'm with you there, and you're right, we 648 00:49:38.159 --> 00:49:42.519 don't know. We don't know if something else provoked. The simple fact of 649 00:49:42.559 --> 00:49:45.280 the matter is she's walking her dog without a leash. The rules are in 650 00:49:45.440 --> 00:49:49.760 that park, you're supposed to have your animal on a leash. He doesn't 651 00:49:49.840 --> 00:49:52.519 know the dog, the dog doesn't know him, don't know if there were 652 00:49:52.639 --> 00:49:57.480 kids in the area, don't know any of that stuff. So a dog 653 00:49:57.559 --> 00:50:00.039 off a leash when they're supposed to be on a leash is a legit concern. 654 00:50:00.360 --> 00:50:06.760 I might say something too, right, you know, if the leash 655 00:50:06.920 --> 00:50:09.920 is blue and I think it should be purple, mind your own ding dong 656 00:50:10.039 --> 00:50:15.320 business. Mark, it's none of your business. You just reminded me also 657 00:50:15.559 --> 00:50:20.159 to go ahead and post that very same video which we started the conversation on 658 00:50:20.880 --> 00:50:23.679 in case one of you guys out there had not seen it before.
