1
00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:05,759
When your old career gives you lemons
throwing some ice mix in some vodka.

2
00:00:06,400 --> 00:00:12,400

Victor Chrysler Dods jeep Ram. It's
Bilified the Bill Moran Podcast. Well,

4
00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:34,200
hello and welcome. Thanks for getting
your pot on, Thanks for telling a

5
00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:39,000
friend. That's how we spread the
word about the pirate ship. Lots happening

00:00:39,079 --> 00:00:43,359
today. Danny's going to reveal the
name of the new Bandi's in. Yeah,

7
00:00:43,399 --> 00:00:46,560
I wish, no, no,
I can't cover. In fact,

8
00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:51,280
one guy suggested twenty more names.
Well, Steve barn Alotta, the founder

9
00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:57,200
of the Steel Rail Festival happen Sunday, He's gonna join us and more on

00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:04,280
Thus the new band and the new
name. Yes, and we still

12
00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:07,599
won't and we won't find out bridging
themselves to the new bandy. Yes,

13
00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:12,519
that's right. I like DV three
corner. Let's go with that, Sugar

14
00:01:12,599 --> 00:01:19,840
corner. D three actors are now
striking. That means more shows those your

15
00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:26,599
entertainment. I don't even know really
what it means. What happens. TikTok

16
00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:29,519
has just killed everything, I guess. I mean, podcasts are going Hollywood.

17
00:01:29,519 --> 00:01:30,680
I mean, that's the only thing
I could think. Our friend Alex,

18
00:01:30,719 --> 00:01:34,799
who has worked in the world of
TV and is further impacted by this,

19
00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:38,159
he was already impacted by the writers'
strike, is uh gonna tell more

20
00:01:38,159 --> 00:01:41,760
about that? And then uh,
something happened with a couple of old men

21
00:01:42,439 --> 00:01:45,560
at a political fundraiser where they started
yelling at each other. And then I

22
00:01:45,599 --> 00:01:49,200
can't find audio anywhere, but one
of them farts and acknowledges that he farted.

23
00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:53,760
I owned it. No, he
owned it. He owned it.

24
00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:59,000
Broke the tension. And then a
follow up on the Swanson manlius, Oh

25
00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:05,359
the Swans. Yeah, yeah,
you know, babies go back, Baby

26
00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:12,840
got back. When was the last
time you used cash to pay for gas?

27
00:02:13,719 --> 00:02:15,080
Oh? Gosh, can you think
about that, The last time you

28
00:02:15,199 --> 00:02:19,520
use cash to pay for gas?
To pay for gas? That? Oh

29
00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:23,240
man? Maybe like in the turn
of the century. Really, yeah,

30
00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:25,120
it's like, I don't don't forever. Yeah, it's been a long time

31
00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:29,240
now. Sometimes they still have places
that are just like ten cents cheaper if

32
00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:34,800
you pay cash. The cash price
restaurants too. There's certain restaurants that restaurants

33
00:02:34,879 --> 00:02:38,039
now, if you charge it,
they gave you three or four percent increase.

34
00:02:38,159 --> 00:02:40,319
Yea menu prices are cash prices.
Steve's Diner and Henrietta. I know

35
00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:44,520
they'll give you like a three percent
off if you pay cash. They actually

36
00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:47,360
appreciate it. Yeah, well they're
getting charged the three percent. They're just

37
00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:52,479
passing on to you. You pay
cash for gas every once in a while,

38
00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:58,360
where just yeah, yeahs is paying
the as to pay cash because you

39
00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:00,400
have to go over. You gotta
find the due park in the first one

40
00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:06,000
right to it. And that's actually
if you can wait that long. Because

41
00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:12,120
sometimes sometimes how about the tap thing? You ever just tap your tap?

42
00:03:12,199 --> 00:03:15,879
Yeah, I think most people would
give it a tap tap tap. Sometimes

43
00:03:15,879 --> 00:03:19,719
that doesn't work, so you swipe
and you probably don't even think about it.

44
00:03:20,159 --> 00:03:23,520
Think about swiping in any way,
I would think not. I think

45
00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:28,479
my pecking mortar goes tap and then
chip and then swipe is like the last

46
00:03:28,479 --> 00:03:34,000
resort. Between July second and fifth, the Ontario County Sheriff's Office found skimming

47
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:38,560
devices in a Geneva and Canandaego Walmart
I believe that now, I don't know

48
00:03:38,599 --> 00:03:39,960
that it was their gas station.
I think it was. I don't even

49
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:44,719
know how they would get in there
because where it's oh, I know,

50
00:03:44,879 --> 00:03:47,000
probably at the self checkout or whatever. You put your chip in. That's

51
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:51,240
why if you go to like BJ's
or Costco, the attendant will run his

52
00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:54,960
fingers through the little slot to make
sure that there's no skimming devices put in

53
00:03:55,000 --> 00:04:00,280
there. They do it once an
hour. Oh. Usually they're using magnetic

54
00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:02,960
strips, so when you swipe the
card, it's taking that information. You're

55
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:06,719
still able to make a normal transaction
with it. This is according to a

56
00:04:06,719 --> 00:04:11,599
cybersecurity expert. And then they keep
pad. If you type in your like

57
00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:15,840
your PIN number, it'll take that
information down, it'll record it, it's

58
00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:17,600
gonna store it, and from there
it can basically be used through Wi Fi

59
00:04:17,639 --> 00:04:20,519
or Bluetooth. Sometimes I've ever used
my PIN number with my card. I

60
00:04:20,519 --> 00:04:25,319
always just do it as a credit
Yeah. Yeah. Across the country though

61
00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:28,639
there's different rules in different states.
If you use a debit card, it's

62
00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:32,319
it's actually more affordable, not much
because like they'll charge you the credit card,

63
00:04:32,399 --> 00:04:38,040
right yeah, right, So you
put your pin in because it's transaction.

64
00:04:38,079 --> 00:04:41,079
Here's the thing is, it's summer. People are swiping all over the

65
00:04:41,079 --> 00:04:42,839
place. You know what I mean. You're on the go, you're out

66
00:04:42,879 --> 00:04:45,160
for drinks, You're out here,
you're swiping. You got gas, you

67
00:04:45,199 --> 00:04:49,800
swipe, you go. Let's call
my buddy Aldo. Aldo is the owner

68
00:04:49,959 --> 00:04:55,920
of Fixing Fox, which provides computer
repair services, tech support and anything in

69
00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:58,920
between. For we'll see the guy
who blew in Hunter Biden or no,

70
00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:01,240
no he didn't. It wasn't that
guy. Uh. Students, professionals,

71
00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:05,959
individuals, residential and local businesses in
Rochester. And Aldo is kind of a

72
00:05:05,959 --> 00:05:12,600
cybersecurity smart guy. So we'll see. He's also having at a party tonight

73
00:05:13,199 --> 00:05:15,160
right now, and we're calling him. Well, yeah, he told me

74
00:05:15,199 --> 00:05:18,000
I could okay, Aldo, the
whiskey is okay. It's like it's like,

75
00:05:18,199 --> 00:05:24,639
uh, Aldo, how are you
sir? How are you doing?

76
00:05:24,759 --> 00:05:29,439
Gentleman? So Aldo is uh?
I think currently preparing flank steaks or strip

77
00:05:29,519 --> 00:05:34,399
steaks on the grill for his uh
stepfather. It's his birthday right all right?

78
00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:40,920
Yeah over there, such a good
guy, Uh Aldo. We were

79
00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:46,079
talking about the the skimmers that we're
found in Walmart in Geneva and Canadagua.

80
00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:51,720
Is there any way to protect yourself? Other than not to swipe skimmers.

81
00:05:54,879 --> 00:05:58,920
Credit card skimmers talk, yeah,
credit card skimmers. Yeah, oh you

82
00:05:58,959 --> 00:06:01,839
gotta you gotta like physically actually touched
them and try to pull them out yourself.

83
00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:04,920
Well, how would you even know, like, how would anybody know

84
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:10,600
they're in? Like what do they
look like? Yeah? Um, they

85
00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:14,199
looked identical. But before you pull
your card out, just feel it,

86
00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:16,560
pull it out, try to see
if you can actually get like something down

87
00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:20,199
there, and ask them, like
the staff if you ever feel suspicious,

88
00:06:20,199 --> 00:06:24,839
but like, hey, can I
get a different credit card reader? Oh?

89
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:30,439
Okay, right, yeah, you
go to a gas station there they've

90
00:06:30,439 --> 00:06:35,920
been skimmers and like what like Henrietta
and Gay, Yes they're right, And

91
00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:40,639
then what they did look like identical. But there's all of this is just

92
00:06:40,639 --> 00:06:44,879
like an attachment onto it. There's
got like a Wi Fi reader and somebody's

93
00:06:44,959 --> 00:06:49,759
nearby with a Wi Fi reader giving
your card man, Yeah, that's you

94
00:06:49,759 --> 00:06:54,199
know what that makes sense because I
live in Henrietta. It's the only time

95
00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:57,639
I've had like, you know,
issues, is because I've probably swiped the

96
00:06:57,639 --> 00:07:00,399
card that I'm not gonna say where, but at the gas station and all

97
00:07:00,399 --> 00:07:03,279
of a sudden I got like these
charges at a hotel in Baltimore, and

98
00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:05,639
I'm like, yeah, I've never
been to Baltimore. Now it's this on

99
00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:10,120
a credit card or on a debit
card. On a debit so I stopped

100
00:07:10,199 --> 00:07:13,720
using a debit card in because I
don't use credit cards, but now I

101
00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:16,199
do and I just immediately pay it. Well, because there's no liability on

102
00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:18,879
a credit card. On a debit
card, it could be another story.

103
00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:23,040
Well, that's the thing, because
I would assume although most people not knowing

104
00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:26,959
until it's too late what has happened, because you know, like you're saying

105
00:07:27,439 --> 00:07:30,600
to skim and then it comes over
bluetooth and the person's got access to your

106
00:07:30,639 --> 00:07:33,720
money and the money's gone, and
you may not even know what had happened.

107
00:07:33,759 --> 00:07:36,279
You may not even be aware that
it was, you know, a

108
00:07:36,319 --> 00:07:40,600
skimmer. And then it maybe days
later you see in the news and you

109
00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:46,439
go fuck. Or the person just
sits on or they just collect on the

110
00:07:46,639 --> 00:07:50,199
number, right, yeah, and
then they wait later and they wait wait

111
00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:56,480
until they gather like probably hundreds of
numbers and then they auction them off and

112
00:07:56,560 --> 00:08:01,839
like in a dark web or something
even scarier, right, and then they

113
00:08:01,319 --> 00:08:05,720
all right, and then after that
then they go to town. I'm like

114
00:08:05,079 --> 00:08:11,360
a giant group by of things.
And then before you know, like,

115
00:08:11,519 --> 00:08:15,040
how did you get scammed? And
you don't even know when it happened?

116
00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:18,560
Holy shit, I didn't even so
wait there's did you? Were you aware

117
00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:22,120
of this kind of thing on the
dark web where they went auction these you

118
00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:24,560
were, Oh yeah, I used
to well, I used to work in

119
00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:26,480
UM. I had no idea,
Kevin, dude, no nothing. I

120
00:08:26,519 --> 00:08:31,439
worked in UH. I worked for
a credit card transaction company for about a

121
00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:35,360
week once way way way back,
and then another time when I worked in

122
00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:39,679
UH DET collection. They would tell
you about these things you had to be

123
00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:41,639
aware of, and one of them
was was this that they take care of

124
00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:45,399
from me? That's why we had
to be so secure with the information because

125
00:08:45,399 --> 00:08:48,039
it could be auctioned off. It
can be all that stuff. Wow,

126
00:08:48,759 --> 00:08:50,120
are these things easy to put into
a machine. There is this something where

127
00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:54,480
they're doing it while they're getting quote
unquote their gas or is it something they're

128
00:08:54,519 --> 00:09:01,559
sneaking into the middle of the night, um job sort of some sort right,

129
00:09:01,799 --> 00:09:03,679
if it doesn't look right, doesn't
feel right. That's why when you

130
00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:09,399
always go to the Costco gas station, right, the attendant always put a

131
00:09:09,399 --> 00:09:13,639
brand new sticker on the grand and
the gas station card reader. Right,

132
00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:18,080
they put a brand new sticker.
Every single day they change it. They

133
00:09:18,159 --> 00:09:22,200
rip one out, they put a
brand new one just to make sure that

134
00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:26,039
everyone has like the brand new.
It's been inspected and they have those monitor

135
00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:31,480
the cameras around them monitored at all
times. You don't think it puts any

136
00:09:31,519 --> 00:09:37,000
adapters on top of it, right, But some other places where the other

137
00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:41,080
gas stations where they don't have the
luxury of having a tendant, they can

138
00:09:41,279 --> 00:09:48,000
do that NonStop, not to mention, monitor the gas pump at all times.

139
00:09:48,639 --> 00:09:52,519
Right. Then that's when they're like, all right, we're gonna put

140
00:09:52,519 --> 00:09:56,360
an adapter. Have somebody like put
an umbrella rain like at a certain time,

141
00:09:56,679 --> 00:09:58,480
pretend it's raining, and then you
can't see it. And then they

142
00:09:58,519 --> 00:10:01,000
just do it. Like with a
matter of less than a minute, they

143
00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:05,039
could put in the dapter on with
two sided tape and then boom, right

144
00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:09,240
there they got They got on a
dapter on and they monitor it from like

145
00:10:09,279 --> 00:10:13,919
a remote card somewhere nearby. Holy
shit, Yeah, that's our words.

146
00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:18,399
So tap is the best way to
go at this point, or pay cash

147
00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:22,759
yeah, or or a credit card
only because the credit card, if they

148
00:10:22,799 --> 00:10:26,559
catch it, you can dispute it
and they're protected. So that's your one

149
00:10:26,639 --> 00:10:28,000
layer of protection if you're going to
use a card. But I would say

150
00:10:28,039 --> 00:10:31,320
you're right, Kevin, I would
go either tapping is the probably the better

151
00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:33,919
way, as Kevin mentioned, where
you can just hold up your Yeah,

152
00:10:35,279 --> 00:10:37,399
sometimes hasn't worked though, that's what
I mean. That's that's what I'm saying

153
00:10:37,399 --> 00:10:41,480
in the beginning. Sometimes, but
the cat cash is still king. I

154
00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:45,399
get. The big thing that I
do is that with because I'm remember a

155
00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:48,639
BJ's I have a card. What
they'll do is like you could have it

156
00:10:48,639 --> 00:10:52,320
on your phone where every time you
make a purchase, you get sent a

157
00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:54,440
text message or an alert. Say, hey, did you buy wheaties?

158
00:10:54,639 --> 00:11:01,120
A box of wheaties from Casco Jesus
Christmas? Yes? I did. I

159
00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:03,720
made that perch family side, right, but like, are you buying a

160
00:11:03,759 --> 00:11:11,919
fucking family size? I'll tell what
I am acting, Chris, Okay,

161
00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:15,480
all right, yeah a lot of
them. Yeah, No, I don't

162
00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:16,840
need the cereal. I remember the
last time I ate Sereal. But yeah,

163
00:11:16,879 --> 00:11:20,679
like if you ask the credit card
company to send you a text alert,

164
00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:22,080
That's how I found out I was
getting scammed, Like did you buy

165
00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:28,120
these boner pills? I'm like,
now, shit works, ye aldough have

166
00:11:28,159 --> 00:11:31,080
you ever been scammed? Have I? Back in the day, lived in

167
00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:37,360
California yet one really what happened?
Oh? I got my my card guy

168
00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:41,840
like scammed off from like I went
out one night, like I went to

169
00:11:41,960 --> 00:11:46,759
like the ad tack at the party, and then later later on, like

170
00:11:46,799 --> 00:11:50,279
two days later, I got like
charges for like eight hundred nine hundred dollars.

171
00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:54,039
My bank caused me. They're like, hey, did you make these

172
00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:56,399
charges? I'm like, what charges
did that make? So like you made

173
00:11:56,519 --> 00:12:01,799
eight hundred nine hundred dollars charges on
this and so fores And I'm like,

174
00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:05,840
I didn't make any charges. Man, that's uh, that's that's a It's

175
00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:09,159
terrible. And that seemed like earlier
in the day, right, I mean

176
00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:13,000
when I say earlier in the day, like in earlier time that this kind

177
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:18,679
of stuff happened. Yeah, that
was like late two thousand, like like

178
00:12:18,759 --> 00:12:22,440
early two thousand and ten, maybe
two thousand and thirteen. Yeah, when

179
00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:26,840
when that went down now and I
was like disputed, it took two days.

180
00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:30,320
Like the worst is like the agony
that you get locked out of your

181
00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:33,440
own accounts. That's the worst feeling, right, Yeah, you got you

182
00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:37,000
got like you little like your your
tail between your legs and everything you like,

183
00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:41,360
how did this happen? Why am
I a oh I might victim?

184
00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:45,639
Now let me backtrace my steps?
Well, what can I do? But

185
00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:50,120
at the same time, it's like
everyone's getting like more and more sophisticated about

186
00:12:50,159 --> 00:12:52,039
it. Well, that's the thing. It's like it's like a giant chase,

187
00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:54,919
like we cracked out on one.
Right, they'll find a way to

188
00:12:54,919 --> 00:13:00,519
get the tap. Hey, it's
sad day for Aldo Anchor Steam Brewing or

189
00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:01,919
Anchor Brewing excuse me, the Anchor
Brewing Company, which I think it was

190
00:13:01,919 --> 00:13:07,679
about one hundred and twenty five years
old in San Francisco U officially closed or

191
00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:09,480
they're they're done, they're not making
I think they're making their last run.

192
00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:13,679
Here wait, what you're actually like
went out of business, well out of

193
00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:18,360
business, and they were a craft
brewery, correct, the first one,

194
00:13:18,519 --> 00:13:20,279
Yeah, the first one and about
one hundred and twenty five years. The

195
00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:24,960
problem is that at some point where
you know, these things start to sell,

196
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:28,600
they become popular, investors get involved, they know nothing about it,

197
00:13:28,639 --> 00:13:31,559
and they run it like shit,
they just try and then you're and now

198
00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:33,679
you're chasing to get caught up in
a new owner and they're cha. And

199
00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:39,919
then eventually you just you can't run
anymore because all these other fantastic beers have

200
00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:43,159
come about. But Anchor Brewing was
kind of the first. They were.

201
00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:45,919
They were the anchor so to speak, right, that started a lot of

202
00:13:45,919 --> 00:13:48,559
this. I was trying to people
out of there once they were they were

203
00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:52,240
a staple back there in the West
coast, right, like they like they

204
00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:58,360
started at all. They started this
whole like ipa flavor thing, and everyone

205
00:13:58,639 --> 00:14:03,720
followed two with like something different from
like Budweiser or a bud like beer.

206
00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:09,240
Right. They had like when they
everyone had like a little seafood party or

207
00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:16,080
like an oyster fast or a clam
bake or anything. And then if it

208
00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:18,879
was like a big big party out
in like the San Francisco Bay area,

209
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:22,960
Anchor Steam will be like, hey, we'll give people throw you two kegs.

210
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:26,879
Were like to put our name or
like a little banner of our beer

211
00:14:26,039 --> 00:14:30,759
over there, right, so like
you would go off there. Yeah,

212
00:14:30,799 --> 00:14:35,639
they did a genius And then what
what I will always remember is their holiday

213
00:14:35,759 --> 00:14:41,200
party, a right so they always
released the Christmas Ale during how they see

214
00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:50,279
them s Thanksgiving comes around, they
release these bank amazing like not ridiculously over

215
00:14:50,399 --> 00:14:54,159
flavored like porters, but just in
between where it gets you a flavor of

216
00:14:54,159 --> 00:14:58,879
a porter of a beer, but
not right there of the Christmas Ale.

217
00:15:00,519 --> 00:15:05,679
And then they would have these parties
of like Who's who in San Francisco.

218
00:15:05,399 --> 00:15:09,080
Right, So then back in the
day when I was living there, you

219
00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:16,080
had like Zenga, which was making
like billions of dollars after Facebook games back

220
00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:20,639
in the day. Then you had
Facebook executives coming in there. Then you

221
00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:24,679
had all these online dot com companies
coming a bunch of nerds hanging out getting

222
00:15:24,759 --> 00:15:28,279
drunk. Oh my god, you
have no idea. They would have a

223
00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:37,960
great elevator coming up and down with
CAGs they would have. And then I

224
00:15:35,519 --> 00:15:41,320
somehow I was in between jobs and
I don't know how I got invited,

225
00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:45,120
but I got invited, and then
all of a sudden, like I started

226
00:15:45,159 --> 00:15:48,639
making friends and started networking. I'll
never forget like that. How are they

227
00:15:48,639 --> 00:15:52,720
party? Like? You can't complicate
what what they were trying to pull up

228
00:15:52,759 --> 00:15:56,360
and then what they actually pulled up
for like decades as how are they part

229
00:15:56,720 --> 00:16:02,159
wow? Wow? Well, Aldo, that that is kind of disappointing to

230
00:16:02,159 --> 00:16:04,399
see. I hate seeing something like
that. That happened on kind of an

231
00:16:04,440 --> 00:16:08,080
American first right in the in the
craft brewery at least in the West Coast.

232
00:16:08,480 --> 00:16:14,960
And I mean the original owner sold
sold out like to a venture capitalist,

233
00:16:15,039 --> 00:16:18,399
and the venture capitalist sold out to
the Poro, and Saporo just sat

234
00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:22,799
back and was like, hey,
we only got three recipes, right like,

235
00:16:23,039 --> 00:16:26,919
they didn't didn't move on it.
And in the Bay Area, you

236
00:16:26,039 --> 00:16:30,440
got people up there in the North
Coast in Mendocino County and all that coming

237
00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:33,960
at you. And you got Russian
River Brewery, which is the number one

238
00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:38,399
brewing the nation, right like they're
making their names. And you got everyone

239
00:16:38,519 --> 00:16:45,200
out in Oakland who pays less rent
than you coming out at you like like

240
00:16:45,399 --> 00:16:48,840
you're like like with like a big
fat target. And then rent do and

241
00:16:48,919 --> 00:16:53,600
rent threw and rents dow Yeah right, rents down. I know that feeling,

242
00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:56,960
Aldough, So do you. Aldo
has his own business. It is

243
00:16:56,960 --> 00:17:00,960
called fixing Fox. It's right there
in a pitch for and if you need

244
00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:03,039
something fixed, he'll either come to
you or you can bring it in.

245
00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:07,559
It's all kinds of tech support for
everybody from professionals to students to idiots like

246
00:17:07,599 --> 00:17:11,440
me. It's right there. And
then when you get compromised, you got

247
00:17:11,519 --> 00:17:17,200
viruses or anything, come to me, give me a rank. I'll don't

248
00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:19,680
be ashamed. Just like walk into
me, give me be honest, and

249
00:17:19,720 --> 00:17:22,960
then I'll help you through. I'll
walk you. Guys, I don't know

250
00:17:23,160 --> 00:17:30,119
how many guys have coming and gone
porns like porn guys or girls? Oh

251
00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:40,119

you're a professional and you got something
that I'm doing, you're the one person

253
00:17:44,039 --> 00:17:48,799
that like flicked on like the wrong
recipe link. Then you then you gave

254
00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:56,960
remote access to your computer. Know
that. The one thing that I can

255
00:17:56,039 --> 00:18:00,559
like tell all the audience is listening, is like, never give remote access

256
00:18:00,559 --> 00:18:03,799
to anybody. I don't care who
they are on the phone, I don't

257
00:18:03,839 --> 00:18:08,039
care what they say on the computer
or anything. Never give remote access to

258
00:18:08,079 --> 00:18:12,240
anybody. Never. I used to
do it at I hearn all the time

259
00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:17,640
because they would. But the ihard
I tea is yeah, that's a different

260
00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:21,480
story. But yeah, anybody else, although I appreciate it and get to

00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:25,960
remember from Gordon life, it was
just the old man that one, and

299
00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:32,119
then and then what's the other one? Uh uh, I can't, I'll

300
00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:34,119
think of it. There was another
one that my sister always don't even playing

301
00:21:34,119 --> 00:21:38,720
that song? Oh you should play
it? Yeah? Yeah. Steve Barlotta

302
00:21:38,799 --> 00:21:44,119
is here. The Steel Rail Revival. It happened Sunday. It's to benefit

303
00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:48,960
the Arkha Monroe and it's five stages, five all day. What time does

304
00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:52,720
it kickoff? Kicks off at noon, gates open under eleven thirty at eleven

305
00:21:52,799 --> 00:21:55,400
thirty And if you want to see
the schedule, who's playing what stage?

306
00:21:55,440 --> 00:22:00,519
When a steel Railfest. Go to
steel Railfest dot com slash schedule and all

307
00:22:00,680 --> 00:22:03,559
the bands there and everybody that's that's
doing it. Where did the idea come

308
00:22:03,599 --> 00:22:10,559
from? We started out doing a
benefit in Penfield for a friend of mine,

309
00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:14,759
Alisa, you knows, my partner
and I and you know we we

310
00:22:14,960 --> 00:22:19,079
we started out with it and I
had one of the guys, actually,

311
00:22:19,119 --> 00:22:25,799
the guy who was the CEO of
Rochester Regional Health, Eric came to me

312
00:22:25,839 --> 00:22:26,759
and he said, you know,
Steve, if you really want to do

313
00:22:26,799 --> 00:22:30,759
some charity, he goes with,
the hospital could really, Like, I

314
00:22:30,799 --> 00:22:33,200
had no idea. The hospital works
on like a one percent profit margin.

315
00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:37,359
They're yeah, probably even lower now, it's right. He's like, we

316
00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:41,640
could really use like something for our
neurology department if we could, If we

317
00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:45,400
could raise like say thirty grand,
we could buy this sling that would help

318
00:22:45,400 --> 00:22:48,720
people learn how to walk again.
Oh wow, I'm like, you serious.

319
00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:51,359
You can't freaking you guys can't afford
He's like, no, really,

320
00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:52,799
that's how tight it was. So
I'm like, okay. So we did

321
00:22:52,839 --> 00:22:56,599
it, and we did it the
first year with lou Graham yea, and

322
00:22:56,039 --> 00:23:00,200
we had just the one stage and
then I think at the time, none

323
00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:02,480
of the other businesses in the Canary
District we're even there. So it's just

324
00:23:02,559 --> 00:23:06,079
iron smoke, right, and then
a stage outside and it went over so

325
00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:08,839
well, and then COVID hit and
then we decided we're not We're not gonna

326
00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:11,000
let that stop us. We're gonna
keep going with this thing. So we

327
00:23:11,079 --> 00:23:14,119
started. We did it again last
year and then this is our third.

328
00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:18,079
So I mean it's like, but
it's a lot. It's a lot.

329
00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:22,240
Yeah, Like I sat on my
phone forty bands, dude, Yeah,

330
00:23:22,279 --> 00:23:26,759
we had we actually had one hundred
and twenty last year. Yeah, okay,

331
00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:30,599
so because I'm looking at his over
forty musical acts. It's a nice

332
00:23:30,599 --> 00:23:33,599
summer to throw out there. But
like, do you know that it's is

333
00:23:33,640 --> 00:23:37,039
it closer to one hundred or did
you scale out? You know, if

334
00:23:37,119 --> 00:23:40,640
we scaled it back. You just
need people kind of all in the same

335
00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:41,960
place, you know, and in
order to be able to do the best

336
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:45,519
job, I kend to raise money
for their chair. So is everything all

337
00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:48,039
because I think last year there was
even some stuff. Was it up in

338
00:23:48,119 --> 00:23:51,000
Fairport Brewing as well? We're still
having a stage, you still are,

339
00:23:51,559 --> 00:23:53,880
but that's the only outside the cannary
just at stage that there. Everything else

340
00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:59,039
is cannary. Yeah, it's tin
cup, it's smoking out Chicks, it's

341
00:23:59,079 --> 00:24:00,960
iron smoke. And then the big
main stage out on the parking lot.

342
00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:06,799
Yeah wow, yeah, Now you're
gonna get up there and play. I

343
00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:08,839
usually don't, but I'm gonna do
a little Beatles set with Beatles rock.

344
00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:12,319
Oh cool, that's good. That's
that's a that's a great thing. Where's

345
00:24:12,319 --> 00:24:15,519
that going to be at? Which
show? Which stage? We're I think

346
00:24:15,519 --> 00:24:18,000
we're at five o'clock on the bigger
stage. Oh yeah, cool. Because

347
00:24:18,079 --> 00:24:21,920
nothing even gets done alone. Who
who has helped with all this stuff?

348
00:24:21,920 --> 00:24:25,599
Oh? Well right? First of
all, well, my partners are Lisa

349
00:24:25,759 --> 00:24:30,119
Enos and Will Young, But my
partner really should be Kelsey bart A Lotta,

350
00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:33,279
my daughter, because she does She
books all the bands, She puts

351
00:24:33,279 --> 00:24:37,680
all the sponsorship packets together, she
puts all the lanyards together so the bands

352
00:24:37,720 --> 00:24:41,720
can pick up all that stuff.
It's just an amazing task. She organizes

353
00:24:41,759 --> 00:24:45,759
everything. And then of course I
got my wife Diane and her her brother,

354
00:24:45,880 --> 00:24:51,000
my brother in law Doug, back
here, and they're they're always doing

355
00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:53,799
stuff. They've been running around all
week delivering stuff. And it's a lot.

356
00:24:53,960 --> 00:24:57,839
You know, I really enjoy the
process, but sometimes it's just like,

357
00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:00,960
oh, yes, I got so
different text messages with fires I got

358
00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:03,160
to put out. But you know, that's the fun of it. Yeah,

359
00:25:03,319 --> 00:25:07,039
what is music meant to you?
Like, you know, in terms

360
00:25:07,079 --> 00:25:10,200
of here you are using it for
a charitable thing, Well, what is

361
00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:12,359
it meant to you over the years
It's been your life? Yeah. Well

362
00:25:12,720 --> 00:25:19,119
it's interesting that you bring up the
music in the charity part because Diane and

363
00:25:19,160 --> 00:25:22,240
my wife and I were talking about
like we should really we've been lucky,

364
00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:26,039
like we should really do something to
give back, you know what I mean.

365
00:25:26,079 --> 00:25:30,400
And so we actually volunteered doing at
a food place, you know,

366
00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:33,440
packing boxes. And then I said, you know, I could do a

367
00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:37,160
lot more if I just used what
I'm good at, which is I don't

368
00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:38,680
know marketing company. And I'm a
musician. I know all the musicians in

369
00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:44,720
town. So we decided to dedicate
our you know, our fundraising efforts to

370
00:25:44,759 --> 00:25:48,960
this. So, yeah, my
big contrition for the year. It's I

371
00:25:48,960 --> 00:25:51,839
mean, it's a huge undertaking.
It was a lot of fun. It

372
00:25:51,920 --> 00:25:55,839
ran so smoothly last year, even
with all those bands, and I was

373
00:25:55,839 --> 00:25:59,359
only in the Iron Smoke stage.
But I mean that ran very smoothly.

374
00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:02,799
Thank you. There's no hiccups.
You had nice crowds. It was it

375
00:26:02,839 --> 00:26:04,720
was great. We get a lot
of compliments on our organization, and I

376
00:26:04,720 --> 00:26:08,119
can't take any credit for that myself. First, so as I'm as I'm

377
00:26:08,160 --> 00:26:11,880
listening to you, do you do
anything? It was? Your wife did

378
00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:15,200
this? Your brother, your daughter? Just put out fires? Come on,

379
00:26:15,799 --> 00:26:18,440
he's a project, Marria. You
know I think he does. I

380
00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:22,319
think he goes guys to get a
fire and goes who I'm taking a nap

381
00:26:23,039 --> 00:26:27,400
kids. It's true, Billy,
I don't do much. I'm just your

382
00:26:27,480 --> 00:26:33,240
jobs. Who he gets much?
Who in the who in the music world?

383
00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:37,279
Do you would you still love to
meet? I know you've probably shared

384
00:26:37,319 --> 00:26:38,799
the stage played with a bunch of
people. Is there anybody you would still

385
00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:42,640
love to meet and talk to.
I've never actually met Jeff Lynn. I'd

386
00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:45,359
like to sit down and talk.
Yeah. I saw him a few times

387
00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:48,799
to play well, we saw him
in Denver. It was awesome. Yeah.

388
00:26:48,839 --> 00:26:49,920
I just have a lot of respect. First a lot of stuff with

389
00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:55,839
Petty and then was in the Traveling
Wilberries and yeah, yellow and and I'm

390
00:26:55,920 --> 00:27:00,920
a fan of Like most bands are
like disciples of the those whether they realize

391
00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:03,200
it or not. But he's a
real He was one of the first band,

392
00:27:03,319 --> 00:27:06,799
uh, you know, bands that
really emulate Okay, how how can

393
00:27:06,839 --> 00:27:10,240
we pick up one of the Beatles
left off? And he's always brought that

394
00:27:10,599 --> 00:27:14,880
thread throughout anything he's produced. And
I just hear it and I did.

395
00:27:14,920 --> 00:27:17,319
I just love it. He's one
of my definitely one of me. Yes,

396
00:27:17,640 --> 00:27:19,880
have you ever tried in any way? No, I got a picture

397
00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:23,400
of a fake uh Jeff Flynn and
me. The guy looks just like him.

398
00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:26,119
He was at the he was It's
the concert, and I sent it

399
00:27:26,160 --> 00:27:32,000
out to a couple of people are
like, Jeff looked just like of that.

400
00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:34,440
Yeah, I would be kind of
cool because and you would just talk

401
00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:38,000
Beetles stuff. I bet he would
love that, don't you think? Because

402
00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:41,160
how many Yeah that he seems pretty
dub I mean we've seen interviews with like

403
00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:45,200
so like the wilber Is when they
used to you know that name the wilber

404
00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:48,680
Is doing or they can bury him. I don't know. They just recorded

405
00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:51,759
everything in the in the studio and
if they made a mistake, they said,

406
00:27:51,759 --> 00:27:52,680
don't worry about it. We'll just
bury it in the mix. So

407
00:27:52,759 --> 00:27:56,480
they came in the Wilbar. Oh
okay, the story where they combined this

408
00:27:56,519 --> 00:28:00,000
all star band said, will bury
him. We'll bear critics because it was

409
00:28:00,039 --> 00:28:03,519
criticism. Okay. No, they
didn't rehearse ever, or they just wrote

410
00:28:03,599 --> 00:28:07,519
and did everything in the studio.
Wow, there's a really good documentary of

411
00:28:07,559 --> 00:28:10,559
them all doing. Oh I want
to see that. Yeah, it's great.

412
00:28:10,640 --> 00:28:12,440
Yeah, because I was a huge
fan, you'll get it. You'll

413
00:28:12,440 --> 00:28:17,680
get a good um kind of window
into what jeff Lynn's all about, which

414
00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:18,960
is, you know, it made
me like him even more. You know,

415
00:28:19,200 --> 00:28:22,279
really, what what was it?
It seems like so down to earth.

416
00:28:22,319 --> 00:28:26,720
He's like super talented and he writes
and you know, produces all this

417
00:28:26,759 --> 00:28:29,200
stuff, and it's just like it
seems like a regular dude, you know.

418
00:28:29,519 --> 00:28:33,200
So jeff Lynn's a guy you'd love
to me. Have you met anybody

419
00:28:33,559 --> 00:28:37,200
in the musical world and it was
a real letdown, like you were kind

420
00:28:37,200 --> 00:28:41,279
of disappointed. I won't say letdown, Yeah, but likes what I thought.

421
00:28:41,359 --> 00:28:44,319
Yeah, Okay, okay, okay, so you remember you remember Ario?

422
00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:45,759
Right now, I don't want to
I hear this. Let me let

423
00:28:45,799 --> 00:28:48,519
me preface it, no bob,
no bashing. See. No, what

424
00:28:48,559 --> 00:28:51,880
I was gonna say, No,
you can't ask me questions I was gonna

425
00:28:51,880 --> 00:28:55,000
say. I was gonna say.
I was gonna say, Steve seems like

426
00:28:55,000 --> 00:28:57,039
he's a nice guy and wouldn't want
to talk ill about anybody, is what

427
00:28:57,079 --> 00:29:02,119
I was gonna say. No,
I'm an asshole. Oh good good,

428
00:29:02,160 --> 00:29:04,200
that's what we like. That's what
we like, all right, So Ario,

429
00:29:06,119 --> 00:29:07,920
So it was we did the show
and Durian like we opened for him,

430
00:29:07,960 --> 00:29:11,000
and I'm like, Gary rich look
at him right on the album covers,

431
00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:14,279
got this heavy beard and he plays
it less Paul, he plays it

432
00:29:14,359 --> 00:29:18,519
low, and he's like such a
badass, right you know. And then

433
00:29:18,039 --> 00:29:22,440
I met him and he was like, Hey, I'm Gary. I just

434
00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:23,960
like I just want to expected you
know what I mean. It's like so

435
00:29:23,960 --> 00:29:29,359
soft spoken. It was just totally
different. But you know, nobody Mario

436
00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:34,160
will do that to you. Roll
with the changes, did the uh nobody

437
00:29:34,160 --> 00:29:37,480
that kind of you? Were Like
God, I really thought more. You

438
00:29:37,559 --> 00:29:41,759
know, I had heard horror stories
about George Thorogood for years, like just

439
00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:47,559
a difficult to deal with, whendn't
grumpy, wouldn't talk to anybody I did

440
00:29:47,599 --> 00:29:49,559
an interview with him. My guy
was great, but really yeah, but

441
00:29:49,599 --> 00:29:53,119
I've heard other people say not not
always the case. Yeah, No,

442
00:29:53,160 --> 00:29:56,519
I mean I never really had a
run. I've met several people, and

443
00:29:56,559 --> 00:30:00,160
everybody's always been very gracious. You
know, um, well you all so

444
00:30:00,279 --> 00:30:03,839
maybe like sort of behind the scenes
so to speak, you know what I

445
00:30:03,880 --> 00:30:07,359
mean. I was telling me that
they were backstage. I think it was

446
00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:11,000
Tommy was saying that one time,
and I forget the band. I might

447
00:30:11,039 --> 00:30:15,400
have been a metallicer or somebody,
maybe the Stones, and they're like,

448
00:30:15,480 --> 00:30:18,680
everybody had to get out, oh
yeah, and he goes, but Tommy

449
00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:22,400
Brunette and their band can stay,
and he's like, you know, it

450
00:30:22,480 --> 00:30:26,319
made me made me uncomfortable because they
were kind of rude and surlied everybody else.

451
00:30:26,359 --> 00:30:27,400
And then when the band was coming
through, like you couldn't look.

452
00:30:27,599 --> 00:30:30,039
I guess they came in and warned
one time, Mick Jagger is going to

453
00:30:30,119 --> 00:30:33,640
go out to a truck that is
actually his gym, so you know,

454
00:30:33,680 --> 00:30:38,039
don't look at him when he goes
to And I always wonder if that's like

455
00:30:38,160 --> 00:30:41,119
a little you know, if you
actually talk to Hi, Mike, I

456
00:30:41,119 --> 00:30:42,559
don't think you'd give a shit,
but he doesn't want to be slowed down.

457
00:30:42,799 --> 00:30:47,440
There's a process that work for that. Yeah, they get a little

458
00:30:47,440 --> 00:30:51,839
panicked because so I'm wondering if you
were sort of like in the Tommy situation

459
00:30:51,920 --> 00:30:55,880
sometimes with bands where you got to
know Tommy has a like a magnetism about

460
00:30:55,960 --> 00:31:00,599
him, an unexplainable magnetism. I
don't have that. You have an animal

461
00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:06,920
man about I mean, I don't
know, it's just a miranimal is What

462
00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:10,759
would you say? Your genre mostly
beatles like that that I love, Like

463
00:31:10,799 --> 00:31:14,279
if I if you listen to stuff
I write, it's sort of in that

464
00:31:14,480 --> 00:31:18,359
vein. Yeah, um, I
like everything. I mean I really I'm

465
00:31:18,400 --> 00:31:19,920
a I'm a music nut, you
know, Because I was gonna say,

466
00:31:19,920 --> 00:31:25,519
outside of that genre, is there
anybody that you really admires? I don't

467
00:31:25,519 --> 00:31:26,880
know. There's gonna be hard questions
on this test. I'm sorry. It

468
00:31:26,880 --> 00:31:30,000
didn't mean that. I just always
think, like I find these you interesting

469
00:31:30,039 --> 00:31:33,759
and I you know, a musical
guy with a big history. I think

470
00:31:33,799 --> 00:31:40,599
that the one of the most underrated
bands and ever I think is Deep Purple.

471
00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:42,880
I just think that's an awesome band
that ye got enough credit. That's

472
00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:45,119
that's interesting. Yeah, because I
mean, most of the time all we

473
00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:49,319
think is smoke on the water,
right, isn't go listen to child listen

474
00:31:49,319 --> 00:31:53,799
to because I love Ian Gillan's one
of my heroes him, Lou Uh,

475
00:31:53,920 --> 00:32:00,359
Paul Rodgers, Um, Steven Tyler, Paul McCartney. Um, they're those

476
00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:04,920
are like those guys can all just
freaking sing, yeah, and they they're

477
00:32:04,960 --> 00:32:07,599
blazing trails that nobody else has done
before. Like if you look at all

478
00:32:07,640 --> 00:32:12,079
the offshoots and all of the disciples
that they have from their singing style,

479
00:32:12,640 --> 00:32:15,039
it's like, you know, and
people say Robert Plant too, and I

480
00:32:15,119 --> 00:32:19,920
agree, But Robert Plant he was
a great singer for that band, but

481
00:32:19,960 --> 00:32:22,039
a lot of people as a pure
singer don't love his voice because you know,

482
00:32:22,119 --> 00:32:24,839
they just don't like any sings a
little. He sings in quarter tones,

483
00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:30,519
which sounds off key to people.
It's very it's very Eastern music style,

484
00:32:30,160 --> 00:32:34,039
you know, and so some people
think it's sounds off key. Well,

485
00:32:34,119 --> 00:32:37,240
wasn't it the story of at cemac
when he was playing with Alison Krauss,

486
00:32:37,640 --> 00:32:40,359
And the story was Alison Kraut that
Alison Krause told on the stage that

487
00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:45,039
she had to teach Robert plant or
reteach him how to sing because he couldn't

488
00:32:45,039 --> 00:32:47,599
hold a note. And she told
the story because he never liked did that

489
00:32:47,640 --> 00:32:51,480
and led Zeppelin. Yeah, I
know, he never did. He was

490
00:32:51,599 --> 00:32:53,200
very good live though, Yeah.
Yeah. I even like some of his

491
00:32:53,319 --> 00:32:58,799
solo stuff in the eighties and he's
very eighties. Yeah, but that these

492
00:32:58,839 --> 00:33:01,400
guys I saw. I saw Stevie
Ravon open for him, and at the

493
00:33:01,440 --> 00:33:06,079
time, Stevie Ravon only had pride
and joy out and I'm like, who's

494
00:33:06,079 --> 00:33:08,200
this guy? You know whatever?
Yes, and then he was like freaking

495
00:33:08,440 --> 00:33:12,119
great. Yeah, like, holy
crap. I got to see him in

496
00:33:12,160 --> 00:33:15,559
concert. There was a guy that
opened for him named Henry Lee Summer.

497
00:33:15,920 --> 00:33:17,519
I think Henry had that. Yeah, I think he had like one song,

498
00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:21,480
yeah that was a hit. And
uh and then Stevie came out and

499
00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:25,039
just blew the stage apart. Yeah, he was unbelievable. Are you listening

500
00:33:25,079 --> 00:33:28,799
to anybody new? Do you listen
to any newer music that comes out?

501
00:33:29,799 --> 00:33:32,119
Do you have time? My commute
to where I tell my brother in law

502
00:33:32,200 --> 00:33:35,960
was Doug this this morning. My
commute to work is like eight minutes.

503
00:33:36,039 --> 00:33:37,440
Yeah, so like by the time
I find a station, I want to

504
00:33:37,440 --> 00:33:42,319
get to him, I'm done,
and I'm always listening to to tunes because

505
00:33:42,319 --> 00:33:45,880
I have to learn him for something. Yes, so that's that's mostly what

506
00:33:45,920 --> 00:33:47,079
I end up doing, and I
miss out on a lot of stuff.

507
00:33:47,079 --> 00:33:50,319
But my daughters keep trying to keep
me, so I'm wondering, right,

508
00:33:50,359 --> 00:33:52,240
Yeah, they keep that. That's
that's uh, that's funny. They like

509
00:33:52,279 --> 00:33:55,359
some classic right to what's in your
what would be in your than your musical

510
00:33:55,440 --> 00:33:59,480
queue if you're listening to anything for
pleasure, not to learn, just for

511
00:33:59,519 --> 00:34:00,960
pleasure. Most of the Beatles,
yeah, I know. I we usually

512
00:34:00,960 --> 00:34:05,440
have like Petty and stuff, like
the stuff that's in that in that zone.

513
00:34:05,519 --> 00:34:08,920
I love Crosby Stills, Nasty Young
and that kind of stuff, Um

514
00:34:09,159 --> 00:34:13,599
Simon and Garfuncle. I like all
different kinds of stuff. It depends on

515
00:34:13,639 --> 00:34:15,480
what mood I'm in. Yeah,
you know, I've heard a lot of

516
00:34:15,519 --> 00:34:19,480
like the classic rock stuff so many
times I'm like, I don't really,

517
00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:22,360
I can't anymore, but I put
out a little mixed mix of that stuff.

518
00:34:22,440 --> 00:34:25,320
Yeah. I always liked the singer
songwriters stuff to me. I mean

519
00:34:25,360 --> 00:34:29,559
Petty sort of falls into that a
little bit, but more of the acoustic

520
00:34:29,599 --> 00:34:30,920
when he does some stripped down stuff. I love it, yeah, he

521
00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:35,800
said. He goes, People like, wonder why my music so appealingly?

522
00:34:35,800 --> 00:34:38,320
He goes, it's six sixties music. Yes, the st the style really

523
00:34:38,400 --> 00:34:44,280
is. Yeah. Yeah, that's
that's interesting. Steel Rail Revival, let's

524
00:34:44,320 --> 00:34:46,840
talk about that. Yeah, when
do you uh so, when it's all

525
00:34:46,880 --> 00:34:51,519
over, when it's all said and
done, everything's packed up for the night,

526
00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:57,679
what do you do? You and
I are going on we've already talked

527
00:34:57,719 --> 00:35:00,079
about this bill. Do you do
like just I mean, you gotta be

528
00:35:01,199 --> 00:35:06,000
yeah, you gotta just be ready
to blast it out. Yeah. I

529
00:35:06,079 --> 00:35:09,519
have a few things in the hopper, but I kind of just like take

530
00:35:09,519 --> 00:35:13,000
the rest of the month off.
It's pretty exactly like we like to start

531
00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:15,639
our summer after the Steal Rail.
Yeah. I don't blame you, man.

532
00:35:15,840 --> 00:35:19,519
Yeah, any big plans or something, you're gonna go away? Uh

533
00:35:20,119 --> 00:35:23,000
No, I'm gonna take my son. We usually go up to Diane's parents

534
00:35:23,039 --> 00:35:25,760
live up in Michigan. They live
on this little private lake. It's beautiful.

535
00:35:25,800 --> 00:35:29,519
I usually take my son up there
to fish, and he couldn't get

536
00:35:29,559 --> 00:35:30,639
off this year. So we're gonna
go up there in a couple of weeks

537
00:35:30,679 --> 00:35:34,199
and just like fish for six or
seven days. It's nice. Yeah,

538
00:35:34,960 --> 00:35:38,119
get out fishing is like there's just
one lake up their third lake. You

539
00:35:38,159 --> 00:35:42,000
can't even get to it because it's
it's a public lake, but there's no

540
00:35:42,119 --> 00:35:44,599
lake access. You have to like
carry a boat in, and in order

541
00:35:44,639 --> 00:35:47,920
to carry a boat in unless you
live in a property near there. It's

542
00:35:49,039 --> 00:35:52,119
several like it's like a half a
mile to carry a boat or more.

543
00:35:52,159 --> 00:35:53,239
And people don't even know about it. So we fished this lake. That's

544
00:35:53,599 --> 00:35:57,599
Does anybody else fish or is it
just me? No? I have I

545
00:35:57,599 --> 00:36:00,239
want to get into fly fishing,
but I haven't done yet. So we

546
00:36:00,239 --> 00:36:02,079
just bring a boat in this lake
and it's like that's it never gets fished

547
00:36:02,079 --> 00:36:06,840
and it's this is like huge bass
in there. It's yeah, so that'll

548
00:36:06,880 --> 00:36:10,079
be my unwinding there. That's nice. Yeah. So the Beatles stage,

549
00:36:10,239 --> 00:36:15,360
the Beatles band that's gonna be playing, Yes when and we're going to start

550
00:36:15,400 --> 00:36:17,960
it. I think we start at
five. Everybody starts on the hour,

551
00:36:19,199 --> 00:36:22,440
okay, and we have a fifteen
minute intermission to change over bands. I

552
00:36:22,440 --> 00:36:25,679
should say. The thing that makes
the Steel Rail Revival a little bit unique

553
00:36:27,119 --> 00:36:30,199
as opposed to some other festivals First
of all, it's inside and outside,

554
00:36:30,239 --> 00:36:34,119
so it's like a south By Southwest
kind of a thing like that. Yeah,

555
00:36:34,119 --> 00:36:37,639
and and and the thing about it
is is everybody plays for forty five

556
00:36:37,679 --> 00:36:40,880
minutes, so you can everybody can
have a completely unique experience, like you

557
00:36:40,880 --> 00:36:44,280
could just sort of fill out a
dance card for the day. I want

558
00:36:44,280 --> 00:36:46,719
to be here at two o'clock and
here this country band, and then there's

559
00:36:46,719 --> 00:36:50,199
a blues band playing at three.
I want to go over there and see

560
00:36:50,239 --> 00:36:52,800
that. So people, the same
people got all the time the same festival,

561
00:36:52,840 --> 00:36:55,440
have a completely unique experience. It's
not like this is the band that's

562
00:36:55,440 --> 00:36:59,000
playing out on the main stage and
you've got to sit there for two hours

563
00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:00,480
and if you don't like it,
you're you're kind of stuck. Yeah,

564
00:37:00,519 --> 00:37:04,840
you know that's a really cool idea. Did you get that kind of from

565
00:37:04,840 --> 00:37:07,239
south By Southwest? Because I love
that festival. I just got it from

566
00:37:07,280 --> 00:37:09,800
going to festivals and being like,
you know, I really want to see

567
00:37:09,800 --> 00:37:12,719
this band, but now I have
to wait and sit through this band.

568
00:37:12,719 --> 00:37:15,440
I want to. I want to
I'm short attention span. How are the

569
00:37:15,480 --> 00:37:19,440
bands when you when you approach them
and said, listen, man, I'm

570
00:37:19,480 --> 00:37:22,880
just looking for a forty five minute
set. We're most bands receptive to that.

571
00:37:22,960 --> 00:37:24,960
Everybody's cool. Yeah, I mean
the musicians in town. We get

572
00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:30,000
way more submissions than we can even
fill. I was talking, you know,

573
00:37:30,079 --> 00:37:31,599
Randy and Christina get your gig on
right, Yeah, those guys.

574
00:37:31,760 --> 00:37:35,639
So I talked to Randy. I
said, you have a master list of

575
00:37:35,679 --> 00:37:38,599
all the bands as of several years
ago, just so that I have contact

576
00:37:38,599 --> 00:37:42,880
information in case they want to contact
somebody or they contact me. And they

577
00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:45,280
said a thing. There were five
hundred and fifty bands on that list that

578
00:37:45,360 --> 00:37:50,440
are playing in or around the Rochester
area on a regular basis. So wow.

579
00:37:50,800 --> 00:37:53,280
We yeah, we get way more
submissions than we can even honor.

580
00:37:53,400 --> 00:37:57,559
And I'm very grateful that people want
to play at it. All the bands

581
00:37:57,559 --> 00:38:01,039
that are playing are donating their time, just very magnanimous. It's awesome.

582
00:38:01,159 --> 00:38:06,000
So did you know that this is
the last gig for Diggler's Bridge. I

583
00:38:06,159 --> 00:38:08,480
didn't steal rail there, ride down
on a steel rail man. Yeah,

584
00:38:08,599 --> 00:38:13,719
we're gonna we're doing a little facelift. Let's say, did them they're getting

585
00:38:13,800 --> 00:38:20,239
um an eyelift? Yeah, job, we're getting it all. It's done

586
00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:30,679
to catch a Predator. Finally,
if we want to get tickets in advance,

587
00:38:30,760 --> 00:38:35,159
where do we go? You can
go to Steel Railfest dot com.

588
00:38:35,519 --> 00:38:37,800
And also Iron Smoke has bracelets if
you if some people are like a physical

589
00:38:37,800 --> 00:38:40,840
bracelet, I understand that you can
get them there. Yeah, because I'll

590
00:38:40,840 --> 00:38:45,159
wear him for for like weeks.

00:38:51,719 --> 00:38:53,960
Uh, the last gig for Diggler's
Bridge and then see Steve jump on

593
00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:57,559
stage with the Beatles band. And
it's gonna be a whole lot of fun

594
00:38:57,639 --> 00:39:00,039
and all all proceeds benefit the Arkham
And which I think is fantast and our

595
00:39:00,079 --> 00:39:04,480
headliner this year is Big Eyed Fish, which is the ultimate Dave Matthews tribute

596
00:39:04,480 --> 00:39:07,440
band, and before them the Misfit
Toys or Playing, which is a very

597
00:39:07,440 --> 00:39:09,840
fun band. Um there's some really
good They do a lot of Arrowsmith.

598
00:39:09,880 --> 00:39:15,559
I don't know why. They do
pretty eclectic mix of awesome tunes. It's

599
00:39:15,639 --> 00:39:17,559
very unpredictable, but that's what makes
it cool. They do Audio Slave,

600
00:39:17,639 --> 00:39:21,800
I mean they're pretty. They do
Dave Matthews and they'll go in to audio

601
00:39:21,880 --> 00:39:23,760
Wow and then they'll do like I
don't know, Gabriel tune, Yeah,

602
00:39:23,800 --> 00:39:25,880
you know what I mean, love
love that. I don't know if they'll

603
00:39:25,920 --> 00:39:30,320
do Dave Matthews with the Dave Matthews
closer. Probably not, but I mean

604
00:39:30,360 --> 00:39:34,440
that's how wide their range is.
That's amazing, pretty cool, very good.

605
00:39:34,599 --> 00:39:37,440
All right, steal a rail Revival. Check it out this Sunday.

00:40:39,280 --> 00:40:42,880
had a nice conversation with him.
We're gonna get together in the next couple

need to have a conversation? Billy,

624
00:40:45,519 --> 00:40:47,320
good teeth? You know what,
That's a really good thing. Think about

625
00:40:47,320 --> 00:40:52,000
that for just a moment. You
ever see somebody and they look attractive until

626
00:40:52,039 --> 00:40:54,840
they smile on and go, yeah, I'm always aware of women who don't

627
00:40:54,880 --> 00:40:59,559
smile with their teeth or and probably
guys as well. Yeah, you know,

628
00:40:59,639 --> 00:41:02,400
they're there's something about having a nice
set of teeth. I'm a patient

629
00:41:02,599 --> 00:41:07,639
at doctor Toronto's. I'm gonna be
going over there early August for my cleaning.

630
00:41:07,719 --> 00:41:12,000
My six month cleaning. They used

to the picket line, joining the writers.

644
00:42:05,719 --> 00:42:09,880
I think this is the first time
since nineteen sixty that both the Hollywood

645
00:42:09,880 --> 00:42:15,679
Writers Association and the Screen Actors Guild
and after the American Federation of Television and

646
00:42:15,840 --> 00:42:22,599
Radio Artists are going to be on
strike together, essentially over They've done all

647
00:42:22,639 --> 00:42:24,639
this during COVID just to get it
over with. Well, no, because

648
00:42:24,679 --> 00:42:29,199
I think a lot of this has
to do with the emergence of AI and

649
00:42:29,280 --> 00:42:32,480
so it wasn't as prolific then as
it is now, but with more on.

650
00:42:32,559 --> 00:42:36,840
That is Alex who was on the
show not just a couple of weeks

651
00:42:36,880 --> 00:42:38,079
ago, and it's going to be
producing a show that we'll have out in

652
00:42:38,079 --> 00:42:44,360
September, call Games. And she
has worked in television and stuff and was

653
00:42:44,360 --> 00:42:46,599
affected by the writer's strike. And
I'm talking to her today and I go,

654
00:42:46,719 --> 00:42:51,280
do you think there's anybody that could
talk about this actor's strike and what's

655
00:42:51,320 --> 00:42:52,679
going on? And she's like,
well, you know, it's all being

656
00:42:52,719 --> 00:42:57,559
sorted out at the moment. I
don't think they officially strike till midnight.

657
00:42:58,039 --> 00:43:00,679
And she said, and I go, what about you? Can you talk

658
00:43:00,719 --> 00:43:04,920
about it? And she said,
yeah, I'm actually watching the press conference

659
00:43:04,960 --> 00:43:09,199
now. Wasn't that the case?
Alex? Yeah, The UM Union had

660
00:43:09,239 --> 00:43:14,159
a press conference today at three o'clock
where they were going to announce whether or

661
00:43:14,199 --> 00:43:19,519
not they voted on the decision strike
and they did so. Um effective right

662
00:43:19,519 --> 00:43:22,960
away. You know they are striking, they are paying the picket lines.

663
00:43:22,280 --> 00:43:29,119
Um And it's crazy. It's crazy
first time in the nineteen sixty but in

664
00:43:29,280 --> 00:43:31,400
listening to all the talks and going
through what I've been going through the last

665
00:43:31,400 --> 00:43:36,599
couple of months, like it does
make sense. We are tired as writers,

666
00:43:36,679 --> 00:43:42,000
producers, actors of hearing corporations,
studios, big network say we have

667
00:43:42,079 --> 00:43:45,519
record profits, record profits, and
then when you want pay commensaris with our

668
00:43:45,559 --> 00:43:50,360
experience, they're like, well,
yeah, thank you, I've heard that

669
00:43:50,400 --> 00:43:59,199
before. And await a second.
They're following the radio modeling. We're broke,

670
00:43:59,280 --> 00:44:04,480
but you're getting And I think the
big problem is like this is based

671
00:44:04,519 --> 00:44:07,360
on the old model of doing business, and we are not doing business that

672
00:44:07,400 --> 00:44:10,880
way anymore. We're not appeasing to
the advertisers. We're in the streaming world.

673
00:44:12,119 --> 00:44:15,440
We're not adapting to streaming and we
have to because yeah, like you

674
00:44:15,480 --> 00:44:20,519
said, AI is hunting. It's
coming for our jobs. They're already scanning

675
00:44:20,559 --> 00:44:23,960
actors into systems. So thirty forty
fifty years from now, you can watch

676
00:44:23,960 --> 00:44:29,920
a mission impossible two hundred and seventy
Tom Cruise in the lead role. Oh

677
00:44:29,960 --> 00:44:32,719
my god, you know what I
mean. They're already putting out all kinds

678
00:44:32,719 --> 00:44:38,639
of like reimagined Lord of the Rings, all AI reimagined this AI. It's

679
00:44:38,719 --> 00:44:43,440
crazy. If you've ever played around
chat GPT, go ask it to write

680
00:44:43,440 --> 00:44:47,360
you a television treatment. It's not
half that. No. Yeah, I've

681
00:44:47,480 --> 00:44:51,199
messed around with chat GPT and I've
seen it. And I had somebody in

682
00:44:51,239 --> 00:44:54,960
the studio yesterday that for just a
meeting. And this is somebody who does

683
00:44:55,000 --> 00:45:00,280
a lot with AI, is training
AI themselves for more for medical purposes.

684
00:45:00,280 --> 00:45:05,639
They're a doctor. But they were
telling me that there's so many AI apps

685
00:45:05,880 --> 00:45:09,280
and AI I don't even know what
they are. I'll call them apps that

686
00:45:09,360 --> 00:45:14,480
can talk to each other. So
you could have somebody or have an AI

687
00:45:14,679 --> 00:45:17,239
take what we're talking about now,
put it into a transcript, then send

688
00:45:17,400 --> 00:45:22,400
that transcript to another AI that would
then chop it up into tweets that you

689
00:45:22,400 --> 00:45:28,039
could send out of the transcript.
So right there, you've taken away so

690
00:45:28,079 --> 00:45:30,559
many jobs. Now does that make
You've taken away the job of a transcriber.

691
00:45:30,599 --> 00:45:32,599
They've ben't have to do that job
anymore. As you could just put

692
00:45:32,599 --> 00:45:36,360
it into this, you know,
right, the transcriber and even some social

693
00:45:36,400 --> 00:45:39,880
media people. But I and in
some ways I go, Okay, So

694
00:45:40,079 --> 00:45:44,880
how do we embrace this and make
it and make it work. I see

695
00:45:44,920 --> 00:45:49,440
this AI in the medical field as
supplemental. I don't see it as replacement.

696
00:45:49,679 --> 00:45:52,000
I see it as possibly more accurate. The other problem is AI is

697
00:45:52,039 --> 00:45:55,760
only as good as the people that
are training in, right, and so

698
00:45:57,639 --> 00:46:00,920
it's only as good as as the
information we give it to begin with.

699
00:46:00,199 --> 00:46:04,639
So there's a lot of data that
we may not even have yet that AI

700
00:46:05,360 --> 00:46:08,719
could have gotten to even deeper on. And lets do you understand, I'm

701
00:46:08,719 --> 00:46:14,559
saying like we're starting out with infantile
information. We need more information in the

702
00:46:14,599 --> 00:46:19,239
medical field on certain certain diseases,
certain things. Like they're almost saying like

703
00:46:19,360 --> 00:46:22,039
AI could possibly, if we could
crack some of this stuff, make you

704
00:46:22,119 --> 00:46:28,480
go forever, he help you go
forever potentially potentially. But when it comes

705
00:46:28,519 --> 00:46:34,039
to learning, and it learns and
it communicates with other AI systems, and

706
00:46:34,440 --> 00:46:37,000
you know, it's the only thing
it lacks is like emotion, but you

707
00:46:37,039 --> 00:46:42,480
can even piss it off, so
it really even has that. So really

708
00:46:42,920 --> 00:46:53,599
the show and once in a while, has Artificial Intelligence AI or Billy what

709
00:46:53,679 --> 00:46:58,519
are the so I mean does this
have to do a little bit with AI

710
00:46:58,639 --> 00:47:00,920
or a lot with AI? It
has a lot to do with AI,

711
00:47:01,079 --> 00:47:06,000
and it has more to do with
the streaming business model. And like the

712
00:47:06,079 --> 00:47:08,519
problem is is like you know,
record profits, and we're no longer catering

713
00:47:08,559 --> 00:47:13,360
to the advertisers. We're catering to
the subscribers. And what you know what

714
00:47:13,440 --> 00:47:15,800
these streamers to figure it out,
Like Disney, if they keep the Little

715
00:47:15,840 --> 00:47:21,480
Mermaid on their Disney Plus, they
will get people to subscribe just to watch

716
00:47:21,519 --> 00:47:24,639
the Little Mermaid in Disney classic movies. They don't need to put out all

717
00:47:24,719 --> 00:47:28,719
kinds of new content all the time
new content, and they can do it

718
00:47:28,800 --> 00:47:31,840
much cheaper, especially with AI.
You get some AI writers, like you

719
00:47:31,880 --> 00:47:36,119
can put out you can put out
so much garbage because there already is so

720
00:47:36,199 --> 00:47:39,599
much garbage on these streaming networks anyway. So it's like, really, we

721
00:47:39,679 --> 00:47:44,039
have to figure out how to adapt
to the streaming model and how do we

722
00:47:44,360 --> 00:47:49,119
build a business around this new wave
so that the money that the spoils get

723
00:47:49,159 --> 00:47:54,480
divided equally as they should so yesterday
kind of part of all this or was

724
00:47:54,480 --> 00:48:00,679
it just conveniently placed as of yesterday, I think it was sort of conveniently

725
00:48:00,800 --> 00:48:04,920
placed. And I think a lot
of like the studios are panicking and they're

726
00:48:04,920 --> 00:48:09,400
trying to get people out and things
out and stuff done because they knew this

727
00:48:09,559 --> 00:48:12,840
was coming. And if if you
if you go back and listen to the

728
00:48:12,960 --> 00:48:15,079
press conference, and you listen to
Fran Dresher, who's the president of the

729
00:48:15,119 --> 00:48:19,559
Sagastra union, she says, you
know, you should have heard them as

730
00:48:19,599 --> 00:48:24,840
a bargaining table, they said about
the right. I could see her n

731
00:48:27,559 --> 00:48:30,119
She's actually really smart and pretty cool
when I've heard her in interviews and things,

732
00:48:30,360 --> 00:48:42,480
But it would be funny to hear
from gayhead. Yeah, but the

733
00:48:42,559 --> 00:48:45,679
studios are basically saying, like in
terms of the writers, in terms of

734
00:48:45,679 --> 00:48:49,760
people like me, uh, they
will just let us starve and lose our

735
00:48:49,760 --> 00:48:53,639
homes and apartments until we come back
to the tables being more reasonable, when

736
00:48:53,639 --> 00:48:57,559
the truth of the matter is they've
lost so much money in the strike they

737
00:48:57,559 --> 00:49:00,840
could have easily paid us what we
were asking for ten times over by now.

738
00:49:01,079 --> 00:49:06,599
Yeah. So, well, that
that's interesting that wants her money.

739
00:49:06,599 --> 00:49:10,280
I think that's something that well,
anybody wants anymore. She wants to work,

740
00:49:10,480 --> 00:49:16,280
Um, she wants her cash.
Oh blaber uh okay, So what

741
00:49:16,360 --> 00:49:21,920
are the chances that this gets sorted
out? So, I mean we the

742
00:49:22,800 --> 00:49:27,840
sagasor union gave the AMPTP an additional
four weeks of bargaining. So we were

743
00:49:27,960 --> 00:49:30,119
supposed to like they were supposed to
make this decision a month ago, and

744
00:49:30,159 --> 00:49:36,119
they gave them an additional four weeks. And basically the AMPTP just wasted everybody's

745
00:49:36,159 --> 00:49:39,559
time. They didn't they did not, weren't willing to negotiate, they didn't

746
00:49:39,559 --> 00:49:44,239
come to the table. So I
don't know, like this actor's union is

747
00:49:44,239 --> 00:49:46,039
saying, like we're here, we're
ready to talk. We don't want to

748
00:49:46,039 --> 00:49:50,320
put these people out of work because
I'm out of work, and the pas

749
00:49:50,320 --> 00:49:52,639
are out of work, and the
director is out of work. It's not

750
00:49:52,679 --> 00:49:57,400
just the actor, right, And
this affects entertainment on a global scale.

751
00:49:57,599 --> 00:50:01,239
Any productions going on in Hong Kong
with American actors, London, wherever,

752
00:50:01,599 --> 00:50:06,679
they're being shut down. Okay,
so right now, if you're any promotions,

753
00:50:06,719 --> 00:50:08,480
they can't do any anything, right, So now every show is going

754
00:50:08,480 --> 00:50:12,239
to turn into the DUCSA has or
when they had the cousins of the cousins.

755
00:50:12,480 --> 00:50:15,880
Yeah, well no remember actually because
those guys want to track. But

756
00:50:15,920 --> 00:50:20,719
these are all actors. If you
will volunteer, yeah, I'll scat for

757
00:50:20,800 --> 00:50:22,320
a movie, no offense, Alex, but I gotta get paid. If

758
00:50:22,360 --> 00:50:27,280
you are a member of the Screen
Actors Guild, say which you'd have to

759
00:50:27,320 --> 00:50:30,840
be, you can't. You can't
work, right, So that means no

760
00:50:30,960 --> 00:50:35,480
more work, No nobody can.
There will be a list of like demands

761
00:50:35,480 --> 00:50:38,079
that will go out from the Union
that basically tells everybody, every actress,

762
00:50:38,000 --> 00:50:42,480
an actor, every agent, every
PR person, like, here are the

763
00:50:42,800 --> 00:50:46,000
rules under this journey. Here's what
these actors and people in the union can

764
00:50:46,000 --> 00:50:51,639
and cannot do, Like any promotion
for any movie that has come out that

765
00:50:51,679 --> 00:50:53,679
as an already left. They can't
go out and do red carpets, they

766
00:50:53,719 --> 00:50:58,400
can't you videos for wires, they
can't. They can't do any they can't

767
00:50:58,440 --> 00:51:00,840
do talk shows. They can do
a lot of signings that it's not connected

768
00:51:00,880 --> 00:51:06,480
to many kind of projects. They
can't do any awar shows. They basically

769
00:51:06,800 --> 00:51:12,440
are quarantines like COVID. So what
happens what happens with the new TV season?

770
00:51:12,719 --> 00:51:15,000
We're seeing that Fox has a lot
of reality shows, but some of

771
00:51:15,039 --> 00:51:19,880
those reality shows are manipulated and scripted, and they have pas and different people

772
00:51:20,039 --> 00:51:23,039
I've set and so a lot of
them have union crews that work for them.

773
00:51:23,199 --> 00:51:27,559
So you're going to see a lot
of things getting shut down, and

774
00:51:27,760 --> 00:51:30,400
you're not going to see a lot
of new shows until this turns over.

775
00:51:30,880 --> 00:51:37,000
So you'll get reruns and you'll get
to I don't think so far. Parn's

776
00:51:37,000 --> 00:51:40,440
always good. No, But so
how much would you say in terms of

777
00:51:40,440 --> 00:51:45,119
all this stuff, do things like
TikTok and sort of the everyman's view of

778
00:51:45,119 --> 00:51:49,199
the world, the silly dances,
the whatever that we're doing where we're just

779
00:51:49,239 --> 00:51:52,800
picking up a camera and somebody's rambling
into and we laugh at them. How

780
00:51:52,880 --> 00:51:55,920
much is that playing into all this
as well? Well, that's going to

781
00:51:55,960 --> 00:52:02,639
grow exponentially because right now, casting
agents and talent people are immediately going to

782
00:52:02,679 --> 00:52:07,679
TikTok and trying to find these independent
content creators because they already have the brand

783
00:52:07,719 --> 00:52:10,000
deals, they already have the followers, they have the audience, so there's

784
00:52:10,079 --> 00:52:13,880
very little the needs to be done
in terms of making money out these people.

785
00:52:14,119 --> 00:52:16,639
That's immediately where they will go,
and YouTube just change their whole creator

786
00:52:16,679 --> 00:52:22,480
models to allow independent creators like you
or me or ever to make more money

787
00:52:22,760 --> 00:52:27,639
to basically opening up the coffers because
they know they saw this coming. Why

788
00:52:27,679 --> 00:52:31,960
should we pay an entire production company
to do this project that these influencers are

789
00:52:32,000 --> 00:52:37,559
doing with their iPhones? They won't, they know it. So it's like,

790
00:52:37,199 --> 00:52:42,320
you know, we have to adapt
in that or or are all out

791
00:52:42,320 --> 00:52:46,679
of work. Wow, So where's
the common ground? Then that's a really

792
00:52:46,719 --> 00:52:51,159
good question. I mean, unfortunately, I'm not, like I've only been

793
00:52:51,440 --> 00:52:58,119
in bargaining for my particular unfair labor
practice, so I only know like the

794
00:52:58,239 --> 00:53:02,000
terms of my particular contract that's going. But even that, like they're they're

795
00:53:02,000 --> 00:53:05,480
trying to screw us around so much
like, oh, well, we'll give

796
00:53:05,519 --> 00:53:08,599
you more severance, but you have
to drop the lawsuit. We're like no,

797
00:53:09,800 --> 00:53:13,440
so you can just go back to
treating people this way. No.

798
00:53:14,039 --> 00:53:19,119
Now, this initially everybody's going to
kind of oh when I say this,

799
00:53:19,440 --> 00:53:22,880
But I am serious because it doesn't
have to be of a pornographic nature.

800
00:53:23,239 --> 00:53:30,280
But how many actors do you think
would turn to only fans? I think

801
00:53:30,280 --> 00:53:31,239
you're going to see a lot more
of them. I mean, look at

802
00:53:31,280 --> 00:53:37,159
what happens during the pandemic. So
many people hit the only fans like crazy,

803
00:53:37,280 --> 00:53:42,000
They're like, yes, this is
my well and I just no,

804
00:53:42,119 --> 00:53:45,199
it's it's not It's that Gordon Ramdy, you teach you how to cook eggs.

805
00:53:45,320 --> 00:53:47,440
This is how Yeah. A lot
of things right right, Yes,

806
00:53:47,480 --> 00:53:51,559
there are, but the ones that
get attention are the Hey, I was

807
00:53:51,599 --> 00:53:54,480
a teacher making thirty five thousand dollars
a year and went on their feet and

808
00:53:54,519 --> 00:53:59,400
I you look at my feet and
I tork or I catch golf balls in

809
00:53:59,480 --> 00:54:01,719
my ass and yeah, and I'm
making a million dollars. You know what

810
00:54:01,760 --> 00:54:04,760
I'm saying. I mean, but
that but that's the thing, and I

811
00:54:04,800 --> 00:54:07,440
don't think it has to be that
way. You know, I saw Ethan

812
00:54:07,480 --> 00:54:12,599
Hawk. I didn't realize how intelligent
that guy is, Like, yeah,

813
00:54:12,920 --> 00:54:15,679
I was blown away by something I
saw on Instagram, and I go,

814
00:54:16,400 --> 00:54:20,840
yeah, I could see people,
you know what a lecture from Ethan Hawk

815
00:54:21,000 --> 00:54:23,960
or a question answer where you get
to type in questions and answers. I

816
00:54:24,000 --> 00:54:29,159
mean, how many people would pay
let's say, twenty five dollars for what

817
00:54:29,280 --> 00:54:34,079
would almost seem like a one on
one with a Matthew McConaughey or I'm just

818
00:54:34,119 --> 00:54:37,320
trying to think of somebody who would
be like an a list actor that a

819
00:54:37,320 --> 00:54:39,239
lot of people would want to talk
to, that you'd want to ask questions

820
00:54:39,599 --> 00:54:43,880
and he'd answer for forty five minutes
and maybe your question gets ready and maybe

821
00:54:43,920 --> 00:54:45,199
not. But it's twenty five dollars
to get in there and have the chance

822
00:54:45,199 --> 00:54:47,840
of that. I think a lot
of people would or even charge ten bucks.

823
00:54:47,840 --> 00:54:53,519
And you know, what's that thing
you had that cameo? You know

824
00:54:53,559 --> 00:54:57,639
there are sort of doing that a
cameo. You can get a cameo message

825
00:54:57,679 --> 00:55:00,840
and you can get you know,
marking to you know, tell your girlfriend

826
00:55:00,880 --> 00:55:06,519
she's pretty. Like, so they're
already kind of is that we played Mark

827
00:55:06,559 --> 00:55:10,519
McGrath dumping, dumping a boy,
dumpling a guy. That's hilarious. I

828
00:55:10,559 --> 00:55:17,239
would pay it back. Wow.
So what do you do in the meantime,

829
00:55:17,280 --> 00:55:23,159
Alex me? I am serving drinks
at my local neighborhood bar because uh,

830
00:55:23,519 --> 00:55:25,840
you know, you gotta go to
work. I gotta pay the rent.

831
00:55:27,239 --> 00:55:31,159
Yeah, and I and I'm just
really waiting it out and waiting to

832
00:55:31,239 --> 00:55:36,400
see, you know, what we
can do. And I'm on the picket

833
00:55:36,440 --> 00:55:39,519
lines when I'm not working, and
that's you know, where do you pick

834
00:55:39,559 --> 00:55:45,760
it? So it depends. The
writer's sales will send out an email or

835
00:55:45,719 --> 00:55:47,280
a group tax and just kind of
let everybody know where they're going to be

836
00:55:47,320 --> 00:55:51,000
for the day, and they kind
of choose, like based on the studio.

837
00:55:51,039 --> 00:55:52,440
So they'll go to Netflix headquarters and
pick it. Outside of there,

838
00:55:52,440 --> 00:55:55,639
They'll go to dirty Rockefeller Center and
they'll pick it outside of there. They'll

839
00:55:55,679 --> 00:56:00,760
go to like I'll te Building or
CBS CBS, and like, you know,

840
00:56:00,800 --> 00:56:02,119
it just kind of depends on where
they feel like they want to make

841
00:56:02,119 --> 00:56:06,440
some Conde Nast building world trade.
They go there and like, yeah,

842
00:56:06,480 --> 00:56:09,480
so wherever they feel like they can
make noise and be annoying and disruptive and

843
00:56:09,559 --> 00:56:15,000
like have fun getting your sweet green
salad while we're out here. I have

844
00:56:16,239 --> 00:56:24,039
I have audio of Alex on the
picket line. O writers make your favorite

845
00:56:24,119 --> 00:56:29,719
chows? Hey, Hey, is
that a Is that a constant chant that

846
00:56:29,760 --> 00:56:31,840
they do over there? Yeah?
It is? Isn't that? It's true?

847
00:56:31,880 --> 00:56:36,039
I mean, yeah, they can't
write anything new? Great, right,

848
00:56:36,079 --> 00:56:38,119
Yeah, it's true. They can't. They can't write a new chant.

849
00:56:38,239 --> 00:56:43,800
You're get in trouble. Uh yeah, yeah, so well, I

850
00:56:43,800 --> 00:56:46,000
I don't like hearing this, but
yet at the same time, it does

851
00:56:46,199 --> 00:56:50,719
kind of go well, the independent
model too, may be screwing some things

852
00:56:50,800 --> 00:56:52,519
up for them. I don't know. Yeah, I mean, it's a

853
00:56:52,519 --> 00:56:57,400
little bit of everything. I think
this good thing is is like unfortunately,

854
00:56:57,519 --> 00:57:01,639
like this not only affects the entertainment
industry, this industry kind of worldwide like

855
00:57:02,000 --> 00:57:06,840
hospitality and everything else. And I
think, you know, people workers of

856
00:57:06,920 --> 00:57:09,719
the world unite type of thing,
and I think, you know, you

857
00:57:09,719 --> 00:57:14,239
can only get change when you make
enough noise. So I think this,

858
00:57:14,760 --> 00:57:19,119
I think the actors going on strike
was the catalyst needed to actually get everybody

859
00:57:19,159 --> 00:57:22,920
back to the bargaining table in a
reasonable way. But if this is terrifying

860
00:57:23,000 --> 00:57:29,239
because we're all out of work right
now and there's no it's like COVID times

861
00:57:29,239 --> 00:57:32,000
where you just don't know what's going
on and there aren't any answers. There's

862
00:57:32,039 --> 00:57:35,639
a lot of people saying yeah,
yeah, yeah, But you don't really

863
00:57:35,639 --> 00:57:39,880
know who could settle first, the
actors, the writers. Oh god,

864
00:57:39,920 --> 00:57:45,840
I hope it's the writer because I
think once they get it back, they'll

865
00:57:45,840 --> 00:57:47,599
get the actors back, you know
what I mean. But I think so

866
00:57:47,840 --> 00:57:52,280
I think it's the actors will be
the ones that will get everybody back,

867
00:57:52,400 --> 00:57:57,599
because because they've shut things down globally
and the writers just didn't. They didn't

868
00:57:57,639 --> 00:58:00,599
have that impact, you know,
and that's the impact we needed. We

869
00:58:00,639 --> 00:58:04,280
needed to see all these people like, fuck, you're all out of work

870
00:58:04,360 --> 00:58:07,079
now. I remember. I don't
know if that helped. I heard the

871
00:58:07,159 --> 00:58:12,440
last time the writers went on strike
and when it finally wrapped up, they

872
00:58:12,480 --> 00:58:15,920
went back to work immediately, Like
John Stewart was writing his own daily shows

873
00:58:15,239 --> 00:58:19,840
and then the commercial he he's holding
up a script in front of his nose.

874
00:58:19,840 --> 00:58:23,480
He was have a script. Yeah, like I don't have to do

875
00:58:23,519 --> 00:58:27,599
this show by myself anymore. And
they like they went back to work that

876
00:58:27,679 --> 00:58:31,239
day, so it would be immediate
and that would be better obviously the actors.

877
00:58:32,039 --> 00:58:36,000
And you'll notice, like if you
watch shows from like two thousand and

878
00:58:36,039 --> 00:58:38,960
seven, there's some real, real
bad seasons of things, like Lost was

879
00:58:39,000 --> 00:58:43,719
like a terrible season just because like
they just would high like any interns that

880
00:58:43,840 --> 00:58:47,400
they wanted. Yeah, it was
fan fixture. It gave me an opportunity

881
00:58:47,440 --> 00:58:51,119
though, to step up, if
that was the thing. Um, And

882
00:58:51,400 --> 00:58:53,880
what it did last time was it
opened the door for reality TV. So

883
00:58:53,920 --> 00:58:57,559
all of a sudden, like we
were out here working, working, working,

884
00:58:57,679 --> 00:59:00,880
making all kinds of shows, but
now they are doing that. They're

885
00:59:00,880 --> 00:59:04,360
not screen lighting new shows, they're
not making scripted and they're not making reality

886
00:59:04,599 --> 00:59:07,000
but they're holding onto the money.
That's the next show scabbed. This is

887
00:59:07,199 --> 00:59:12,519
um. They're going to strike tonight
at midnight, right? Is that when

888
00:59:12,519 --> 00:59:15,599
it officially begins for the actors.
Yeah, that's when it officially begins.

889
00:59:15,719 --> 00:59:19,519
They can get all like the notifications
of city and like they have to send

890
00:59:19,519 --> 00:59:22,840
out documentation basically outlying like here are
the dudes and don't during the strikes,

891
00:59:22,840 --> 00:59:25,000
just like they did with the writers. Yeah, it's a little it's a

892
00:59:25,119 --> 00:59:30,079
scary, unsettling time for sure,
But because there's no end in sight,

893
00:59:30,239 --> 00:59:35,000
right and it's very soon for the
actors, they haven't officially started to strike

894
00:59:35,079 --> 00:59:37,119
as we're taping this now when you're
hearing it, they'll have been on strike

895
00:59:37,199 --> 00:59:40,280
for probably a couple of hours.
Most of the listeners will be there about

896
00:59:40,280 --> 00:59:45,039
ten after their coffee, so we
don't really know how long it will be.

897
00:59:45,079 --> 00:59:49,119
But I mean, is there any
rumblings like, hey, we think

898
00:59:49,159 --> 00:59:52,079
if if we pull this move.
And I saw Jenna Kirkman, who's a

899
00:59:52,159 --> 00:59:58,039
comedian, had put something up last
night's Sewing the showing the letter that fran

900
00:59:58,079 --> 01:00:02,280
Drescher had sent out to everybody and
after contacts saying that, you know,

901
01:00:02,559 --> 01:00:06,760
but it almost felt like if we
did this, it could happen pretty quickly.

902
01:00:07,760 --> 01:00:10,400
Yeah, well that's what they're hoping. They're hoping that by officially announcing

903
01:00:10,440 --> 01:00:15,559
and getting the backing of like the
director's guilds and the camera guild and all

904
01:00:15,599 --> 01:00:21,119
that, by getting the you know, support for the strike and actually announcing

905
01:00:21,119 --> 01:00:24,559
we are officially on strike, that
maybe that'll be the thing that gets these

906
01:00:24,559 --> 01:00:28,119
people back to the barteining table,
because they sat in the press conference like,

907
01:00:28,159 --> 01:00:30,719
we will talk to you tonight,
We will go to the table tonight

908
01:00:30,760 --> 01:00:34,519
if you're going to be reasonable.
But when you say things like you'll just

909
01:00:34,639 --> 01:00:37,280
let your the writers starve, you'll
just let them wait it out till October

910
01:00:37,320 --> 01:00:42,480
so they're homeless, Like, look, that is absolutely in humane. Yeah,

911
01:00:42,519 --> 01:00:47,079
that's pretty shitty. Having watched a
few lockouts in the sports, one

912
01:00:47,199 --> 01:00:52,000
ends up happening is more often than
not, the workers eventually just come back

913
01:00:52,039 --> 01:00:54,440
and go, okay, we give
because the billionaires can just wait this out.

914
01:00:54,559 --> 01:00:59,039
Yeah, well it's the sad part. Well maybe not maybe hopefully not.

915
01:00:59,159 --> 01:01:01,599
Maybe this time is you know,
as she's saying, the workers unite

916
01:01:01,679 --> 01:01:06,480
on all levels from hospitality on.
Yeah, and there's a lot of I

917
01:01:06,480 --> 01:01:08,400
don't know if you know about like
you know, just kind of nationwide what's

918
01:01:08,440 --> 01:01:13,760
going on. Labor unions all constination
are going there. People are stepping up,

919
01:01:13,800 --> 01:01:17,159
they're organizing. Starbucks is organizing,
Amazon is organizing. They don't want

920
01:01:17,159 --> 01:01:21,760
to be treated. I totally get
it. I didn't really understand the whole

921
01:01:21,840 --> 01:01:23,480
union thing until I got in the
union, and I thought it was just

922
01:01:23,519 --> 01:01:27,320
like, oh, you get to
stay here in the union. But there's

923
01:01:27,360 --> 01:01:32,119
so much like all we want is
just to be paid fairly and treated fairly

924
01:01:32,239 --> 01:01:37,079
and get health insurance and pensions and
all these things that aren't typical in our

925
01:01:37,119 --> 01:01:40,599
line of work because what we do
is important, you know what I mean.

926
01:01:42,000 --> 01:01:46,760
It's entertainment, but it's important.
Not when I got ai, all

927
01:01:46,840 --> 01:01:53,639
right, alex, Uh, we
want more beer. There's always want more

928
01:01:53,679 --> 01:01:59,159
beer. There's always only fans,
that's true. I was just thinking about

929
01:01:59,199 --> 01:02:01,440
it today. I'm about head to
the photo studio when I leave work and

930
01:02:01,480 --> 01:02:06,239
get some fe picks going. I've
left a month. I hear knees are

931
01:02:06,239 --> 01:02:09,800
the new the knees are the new
feet. Oh yeah, I get some

932
01:02:09,920 --> 01:02:13,840
exfoliation. It'll be good to go. Like you know what, my handle

933
01:02:13,840 --> 01:02:17,719
it just right, Alex. I
appreciate a great insight to all that.

934
01:02:17,760 --> 01:02:22,000
And I'm sorry this is all happening. Yeah that's okay, um me too.

935
01:02:22,079 --> 01:02:24,599
But hopefully, you know, all
things will turn around and I have

936
01:02:24,760 --> 01:02:29,880
to help. But I'm looking forward
to game Night too. I from when

937
01:02:29,920 --> 01:02:32,480
I've listened to, I've enjoyed it, and I think it's gonna be great.

938
01:02:34,280 --> 01:02:36,559
You've done, You've done, You've
done a nice shot with It's another

939
01:02:36,559 --> 01:02:40,239
podcast, it'll be coming in September. On the UH on the Bill MRIM

940
01:02:40,320 --> 01:02:44,679
Production to Network. I know it
sounds silly to say, I think I

941
01:02:44,719 --> 01:02:49,039
have to call it network. I'm
thinking I gotta call you. I think

942
01:02:49,800 --> 01:02:57,000
I think I gotta call it b
BP Network Bill Productions or BMP to network

943
01:02:57,079 --> 01:03:00,400
or something like that. Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, all right, Alex,

944
01:03:00,480 --> 01:03:05,280
thank you, You're welcome by there
goes. Wow. Man, that's

945
01:03:05,320 --> 01:03:07,519
some Yeah, that's it's a lot
going on there. Well, we'll see

946
01:03:07,519 --> 01:03:12,800
I know some celebrities to some people
who depend on writers are laying very low.

947
01:03:12,840 --> 01:03:15,440
They don't even want to be seen
out doing anything fun. But I

948
01:03:15,440 --> 01:03:19,239
feel like I wonder who's who's next
if the if the actors can't get this

949
01:03:19,320 --> 01:03:23,039
done, who's striking next to get
this taken care of? It's only that

950
01:03:23,800 --> 01:03:29,280
photographer. But look at all these
people are out anyway. I don't have

951
01:03:29,320 --> 01:03:30,920
anything to shoot. I don't have
any writers, and I don't have any

952
01:03:30,920 --> 01:03:35,320
actors, So I'm out Jamison on
the street, bro, we can hire

953
01:03:35,360 --> 01:03:37,119
them. I understand that, but
but do you see what I'm saying,

954
01:03:37,119 --> 01:03:42,840
like anything that's going to require a
union of the hospitality. There's food tables

955
01:03:42,880 --> 01:03:45,000
at these places. I'm sure the
amount of food that gets wasted there could

956
01:03:45,039 --> 01:03:50,199
feed a small nation, you know, on just a couple of Hollywood sets.

957
01:03:50,800 --> 01:03:52,119
But all those people are out of
work. I feel bad for all

958
01:03:52,159 --> 01:03:54,920
the bars that they're gonna lose their
their employees when the strike is over.

959
01:03:55,079 --> 01:03:58,119
Yeah, well we'll go back to
work. Sorry, I can't make it

960
01:03:58,119 --> 01:04:01,719
any today. We will take a
moment when we come back. Tell you

961
01:04:01,719 --> 01:04:05,559
about a couple of old men who
got into it. One included admitting he

962
01:04:05,639 --> 01:04:09,000
farted during this whole thing. And
then another old man wants to talk to

963
01:04:09,039 --> 01:04:12,519
us at eight fifteen. Oh he
does, yes, all right, all

964
01:04:12,639 --> 01:04:16,079
right, somebody got screwed again.
Land of Legends Raceway in Canadagas where you'll

965
01:04:16,119 --> 01:04:19,679
find the power and the excitement of
local heroes taken on that legendary dirt track.

966
01:04:20,079 --> 01:04:23,679
They are pushing the limits down there. I love this because you can

967
01:04:23,719 --> 01:04:27,320
bring the entire family. It's fun
for everybody. They got great food trucks

968
01:04:27,360 --> 01:04:32,400
and great novelty food stands. You
can get all kinds of cool little chotskis.

969
01:04:32,679 --> 01:04:35,119
And then the kids. If you
got kids, bring them to the

970
01:04:35,159 --> 01:04:39,159
Little Legends Kids Club. They can
make a craft that they can put on

971
01:04:39,239 --> 01:04:41,840
a shelf, remember the night right, And they get up close with the

972
01:04:41,960 --> 01:04:45,360
drivers and all their cars and maybe
learn something about the cars. Maybe they

973
01:04:45,360 --> 01:04:48,440
want to ask the drivers a question. They're very accessible and very very cool

974
01:04:48,480 --> 01:04:51,519
to talk to as well. So
get down there twenty twenty County, Row

food, great atmosphere. It's an
eighteen hundreds cobblestone church that they've renovated.

987
01:05:47,000 --> 01:05:50,920
It's actually two buildings they've connected together
so when they have live music in the

988
01:05:50,960 --> 01:05:54,320
front. Now, let's say you're
not there for the live music, you

989
01:05:54,360 --> 01:05:56,559
want to have a quiet dinner.
You go on the back and you can't

990
01:05:56,559 --> 01:05:59,079
even hear it. It's amazing.
It's like the opposite of a mullet.

991
01:05:59,119 --> 01:06:02,559
Today, hard in the front,
pis us in the back. That's pretty

992
01:06:02,559 --> 01:06:06,639
good. And the food is delicious. Everything from like the tater tots.

993
01:06:06,719 --> 01:06:11,360
I know that sounds let excellent.
They're the best tatter tots I've ever had,

994
01:06:11,440 --> 01:06:15,199
the best. They have things like
steak tacos and all kinds of specials

995
01:06:15,199 --> 01:06:19,039
of New York stripped steak, pork
chop, great craft cocktails. And I

996
01:06:19,119 --> 01:06:21,920
like eating at the bar. So
let's say, you know, date night,

997
01:06:23,480 --> 01:06:26,119
keep it casual. You go to
Cobblestone on Maine, eat at the

998
01:06:26,119 --> 01:06:29,320
bar, catch some live music.
That's a pretty full night right there at

the village of Webster. And you can

com. But it's all right, rotting

1001
01:06:47,840 --> 01:07:02,079
round and freeze again, you know. How Like we were talking about YouTube,

1002
01:07:02,320 --> 01:07:05,880
yeah, and how people just make
content that's all aggregation. They steal

1003
01:07:05,880 --> 01:07:10,400
it from Wikipedia, make a video. I got sucked into a seventeen minute

1004
01:07:10,400 --> 01:07:15,079
mini doc about how George Harrison and
Eric Clapton, how like Eric Clapton was

1005
01:07:15,079 --> 01:07:18,039
in love with George Harrison's wife and
she wanted to leave for Eric Clapton.

1006
01:07:18,079 --> 01:07:21,920
I watched the whole thing that's true. Yeah, I know it's true.

1007
01:07:20,440 --> 01:07:27,679
Yeah, it's just like the first
see the Wikipedia. That's true. No,

1008
01:07:27,800 --> 01:07:30,480
but this is a documentary. Somebody
just put together a video. Oh

1009
01:07:30,599 --> 01:07:33,840
yeah, and subscribed to by page. If you like Corey's World, subscribe

1010
01:07:33,840 --> 01:07:39,320
to Corey's World. I like,
um, George Harrison was my favorite.

1011
01:07:39,400 --> 01:07:44,960
Vital does he Yeah? The Stories
that was Paul but Joe. I could

1012
01:07:44,960 --> 01:07:46,719
see George. I see thee the
Quiet Beatle. Yeah, he was gonna

1013
01:07:46,800 --> 01:07:49,840
leave, he was gonna quit and
wasn't. Yeah. And that documentary that

1014
01:07:50,119 --> 01:07:55,840
um, I think it was on
Disney Disney, Yeah, that they had

1015
01:07:55,880 --> 01:07:58,599
they had to go tak him coming
back to the studio. I watched like

1016
01:07:58,639 --> 01:08:00,599
forty five minutes of I'm like,
okay, we're we going where we go?

1017
01:08:01,159 --> 01:08:05,480
Very slow, very slowly? The
Beatles? Who is I'm not a

1018
01:08:05,519 --> 01:08:08,840
huge fan of the Beatles. I'm
not a Beatles fan either. I could

1019
01:08:08,880 --> 01:08:11,719
I said that. People used to
make fun of me. I used to

1020
01:08:11,760 --> 01:08:15,359
say things like the the Beatles can
can you just turn that camera? I

1021
01:08:15,399 --> 01:08:21,239
don't know what happened there. Um
I was, yeah, let's see hang

1022
01:08:21,239 --> 01:08:25,600
out a second. Keep going,
keep going, keep turning, keep coming

1023
01:08:25,600 --> 01:08:29,039
in this way. There we go
right there, that's it, thank you.

1024
01:08:29,760 --> 01:08:33,399
Um. I used to say that
the Beatles. Beatles wrote some of

1025
01:08:33,439 --> 01:08:39,439
the most beautiful melodies and that sometimes
there's songs sounded better sung by other people,

1026
01:08:39,520 --> 01:08:42,680
and fucking people went nuts on me. Nuts. Well, I mean,

1027
01:08:42,680 --> 01:08:45,680
if you're gone, wow, if
you liked the thing, I'm not

1028
01:08:45,720 --> 01:08:47,239
wrong. But like, it's all
a matter of opinion. And the Beatles

1029
01:08:47,279 --> 01:08:51,560
did. They were iconic. They
changed music, they did. But if

1030
01:08:51,560 --> 01:08:55,960
you were gonna put together an all
star band of all the bands that you've

1031
01:08:55,960 --> 01:08:58,960
ever seen, yeah, I picked
five guys, mean, two guitar players,

1032
01:08:58,960 --> 01:09:00,840
a drummer of bassis the vocalist,
you would not pick a single Beetle.

1033
01:09:00,960 --> 01:09:03,760
You don't think so? No,
I think he might not pick Paul

1034
01:09:04,079 --> 01:09:08,319
No, no, no, John
to even be a writer a little bit.

1035
01:09:08,359 --> 01:09:11,159
I don't know, George. Did
you take bray Manswick? You don't

1036
01:09:11,159 --> 01:09:15,640
even need a bassist. There was
a press dinner to boost Robert F.

1037
01:09:15,800 --> 01:09:20,560
Kennedy Junior's presidential campaign. Now he
is, I believe, going to be

1038
01:09:20,600 --> 01:09:25,600
on the democratic side of things,
but he is an anti vaxer, so

1039
01:09:25,640 --> 01:09:29,560
he's getting a lot of support from
people. He's been very, very vehemently

1040
01:09:29,600 --> 01:09:33,960
out speaking about the dangers of this
vaccine and how it wasn't properly researched.

1041
01:09:33,960 --> 01:09:38,319
Yeah, well, and it was
his father. It was his uncle who

1042
01:09:38,319 --> 01:09:41,600
held the office and his father who
was on his way. People thought for

1043
01:09:41,720 --> 01:09:45,479
sure. So this is at a
I would like to just read the article

1044
01:09:45,600 --> 01:09:49,800
as it came from paid six because
the New York Post, Yeah, it

1045
01:09:49,840 --> 01:09:55,880
almost comes like an onion article.
It almost nearly post like, doesn't lean

1046
01:09:56,000 --> 01:10:00,439
right? They are, no,
but this sounds like an onion article when

1047
01:10:00,479 --> 01:10:02,439
I read it, all right,
and I mean that from the comical,

1048
01:10:02,720 --> 01:10:09,399
satirical bullshit. But then I went
Vanity Fair, has this article not by

1049
01:10:09,520 --> 01:10:12,960
written by their people? And the
New Yorker had it like it's this This

1050
01:10:13,199 --> 01:10:18,359
legitimately happened. A press dinner to
boost Robert F. Kennedy Junior's presidential campaign

1051
01:10:18,399 --> 01:10:26,199
descended into a foul bout of screaming
and polemic farting. Tuesday night. The

1052
01:10:26,239 --> 01:10:30,640
White House hopeful attended the affair at
Tony's on the Upper East Side, no

1053
01:10:30,760 --> 01:10:32,319
doubt, hoping to impress them,
the ladies and gentlemen of the Fourth of

1054
01:10:32,359 --> 01:10:36,000
State, his worthiness to sit in
the very same oval office desk once occupied

1055
01:10:36,039 --> 01:10:41,319
by his late uncle. But a
shouting match over climate change broke out between

1056
01:10:41,399 --> 01:10:45,800
two boisterous old men, sending the
even evening down an extremely unfortunate path.

1057
01:10:49,159 --> 01:10:55,920
Began. It began after a guest
asked Kennedy, founder of the ecological organization

1058
01:10:56,079 --> 01:11:00,199
Waterkeeper Alliance, about the environment,
and it seems that the mere inquiry was

1059
01:11:00,319 --> 01:11:06,520
enough to set off apparently drunk gossip
columnists turned flack Doug Deckert. I don't

1060
01:11:06,520 --> 01:11:11,079
know, I don't know what that's
about. But the host of the event,

1061
01:11:11,159 --> 01:11:14,560
so he's hosting the event. This
guy who became in raids that the

1062
01:11:14,640 --> 01:11:19,880
question and screamed at the top of
his lungs the climate hoax. Meanwhile,

1063
01:11:20,640 --> 01:11:26,880
octogenarian so an eighty year old art
critic Anthony Hayden guest, who appeared to

1064
01:11:26,920 --> 01:11:31,800
have been sleeping happily for most of
the dinner, was aroused, was roused

1065
01:11:31,800 --> 01:11:38,600
by the abrupt rumpus. He suddenly
he suddenly opened his eyes and denounced his

1066
01:11:38,680 --> 01:11:43,840
longtime pal Deckert, the guy who's
hosting, calling him quote a miserable blob.

1067
01:11:45,680 --> 01:11:48,720
Hayden guest tells us he was not
asleep quote. I was just thinking,

1068
01:11:48,760 --> 01:11:53,680
he told us, and says he's
the one who asked the question about

1069
01:11:53,680 --> 01:11:59,600
the environment. Decker continued to scream
wildly about climate change scam, while Hayden

1070
01:11:59,680 --> 01:12:04,479
guest peppered him with verbal volleys from
across the table, calling him variously fucking,

1071
01:12:04,520 --> 01:12:09,079
insane and insignificant. Can you imagine
being in at some like Hi,

1072
01:12:09,279 --> 01:12:15,560
these are usual thousand dollars a play. I'm thinking, I don't know,

1073
01:12:15,680 --> 01:12:17,680
maybe fine, dum, dumber or
they killed the two owls. It's those

1074
01:12:17,720 --> 01:12:24,239
types of events. Yes, but
you gotta see like the octagen the older

1075
01:12:24,239 --> 01:12:28,880
guy. He looks like he's just
well to do old. Yeah, but

1076
01:12:29,039 --> 01:12:32,159
at a top hat and had a
little No, he had hipper dressed than

1077
01:12:32,199 --> 01:12:35,399
that, but he was very well
dressed, like doctor Bowers. Yeah.

1078
01:12:35,399 --> 01:12:41,680
Maybe here it seems, Deckert sends
the need for a new rhetorical tact and

1079
01:12:41,880 --> 01:12:47,319
let rip a loud, prolonged part
while yelling as if to underscore his point,

1080
01:12:47,760 --> 01:12:54,479
I'm farting. I gotta go hang
on a second. Who knows if

1081
01:12:54,479 --> 01:12:58,560
he really was? We really want
to fan Guto. Where is the audio

1082
01:12:58,720 --> 01:13:00,800
for this? Where is the audio
right? Where is the video? Somebody

1083
01:13:00,800 --> 01:13:05,680
who's actually there too, reported Bush. Everybody's got a phone nowadays, there's

1084
01:13:05,760 --> 01:13:10,800
video of this. The room,
which included a handful of journalists as well

1085
01:13:10,800 --> 01:13:16,159
as Kennedy's campaign manager, former Republican
Dennis Cassinich, was stunned, seemingly unsure

1086
01:13:16,199 --> 01:13:19,880
about whether Deckhart was farting at Hayden. Guests personally, who are at the

1087
01:13:20,039 --> 01:13:24,159
very notion of global warming? Man, I haven't even heard the name Dennis

1088
01:13:24,199 --> 01:13:28,840
Cassinich in a long time. Yeah, I guess he's the campaign now.

1089
01:13:28,920 --> 01:13:30,880
That's what happens. That's where to
go back on your way down. Regrettably,

1090
01:13:30,920 --> 01:13:33,920
we may assure readers that there was
no room for doubt that the climate

1091
01:13:34,079 --> 01:13:42,479
changed in the immediate environment of the
dining of the dinner table. It's like

1092
01:13:42,520 --> 01:13:47,479
when the pope they announced a new
pope comes up. We have a winner.

1093
01:13:47,520 --> 01:13:51,920
It's white's brown. If they don't
have a winner. Former Paid six

1094
01:13:53,000 --> 01:13:56,880
reporter Floe Anthony attempted to change the
subject, telling Kennedy how much he admired

1095
01:13:56,880 --> 01:14:00,239
his father, the tragic Attorney General
Robert F. Kennedy. Sadly, and

1096
01:14:00,279 --> 01:14:05,199
someone inexplicably another guest brought things back
to climate change. Yeah, because why

1097
01:14:05,199 --> 01:14:09,600
wouldn't you? That's more entertaining if
I can see these two old fox go

1098
01:14:09,640 --> 01:14:13,159
at it and somebody's screaming I'm farting, which is going to change the climate.

1099
01:14:14,520 --> 01:14:18,199
That's hysterical. I mean that is
the funniest. Usually, like,

1100
01:14:18,800 --> 01:14:25,600
where would you expect to see people
yelling at each other over a dinner table?

1101
01:14:25,920 --> 01:14:29,119
Do you expect to see it at
Christmas? Thanks? No? No,

1102
01:14:29,119 --> 01:14:31,000
no, Let's say a restaurant,
Like, like a restaurant, would

1103
01:14:31,039 --> 01:14:36,880
you expect to see it? Let's
say at um. I don't know tastings,

1104
01:14:36,960 --> 01:14:42,960
well, it's not tasting some no, but I'm saying like next door,

1105
01:14:43,079 --> 01:14:45,439
which is the Wegmans, right,
this would be kind of a fancier

1106
01:14:45,439 --> 01:14:48,439
place, a nicer place. You
can have your own wine locker at next

1107
01:14:48,439 --> 01:14:50,920
door. If you are a wine
kind of store, you can store your

1108
01:14:50,920 --> 01:14:56,199
own wine and they'll serve it to
you there. And so that's the kind

1109
01:14:56,199 --> 01:15:00,760
of place again, mister or mister
solo buddy, you know my warm bunny,

1110
01:15:00,960 --> 01:15:08,079
you know it. That shit didn't
happen, that's like, yes,

1111
01:15:10,239 --> 01:15:16,439
that's right. Two dollars the last
the two for twenty meals two for twenty

1112
01:15:16,520 --> 01:15:21,720
after dollar margarita week plus an app
Yeah. So uh. When I asked

1113
01:15:21,720 --> 01:15:28,279
to comment about okay, so sadly
and someone didn't explicit inexplicably another guest brings

1114
01:15:28,279 --> 01:15:30,920
it back. We're told Deckhart and
Hayden guest have known each other for three

1115
01:15:30,960 --> 01:15:34,600
decades. When asked to comment about
his outburst the next day, Decker told

1116
01:15:34,680 --> 01:15:40,439
us, I apologize for using my
flat lens as a medium of public commentary.

1117
01:15:40,479 --> 01:15:44,520
In your place, man, the
guy farted saying climate change is the

1118
01:15:44,560 --> 01:15:46,600
hoax and basically screamed on farting I'm
changing the climate in here. I mean

1119
01:15:46,600 --> 01:15:51,479
this is this is like, this
is the home. He also asked us

1120
01:15:51,520 --> 01:15:59,479
to refer to him as him either
as and this is what the gallivanting bulverdere

1121
01:16:00,159 --> 01:16:03,279
or the beer fueled sex rocket.
Now they had pictures of this guy a

1122
01:16:03,279 --> 01:16:11,199
lot of big words in the circle. Yeah yeah, botha deer. But

1123
01:16:11,279 --> 01:16:14,239
the beer fuel sex Rocket, who
picked up the tab for the evening as

1124
01:16:14,239 --> 01:16:16,840
its host, was unapologetic about his
views, telling us that he has zero

1125
01:16:16,920 --> 01:16:20,760
tolerance for the climb and hoax scam
nonsense in any venue that I am personally

1126
01:16:20,800 --> 01:16:25,479
funding. So he was he was
paying for the dinner. It sounds like

1127
01:16:25,960 --> 01:16:29,359
he also told uh, so,
I'd like to get something off my chest.

1128
01:16:30,680 --> 01:16:32,880
Yeah, I mean the other guy, the other the art critic.

1129
01:16:32,920 --> 01:16:38,640
The octogenarian has written for Rolling Stone, Venery Fair and Penn books like Studio

1130
01:16:38,720 --> 01:16:42,239
fifty four disco on the culture of
the night. He tells us I've now,

1131
01:16:42,319 --> 01:16:45,479
I've known Doug for many years.
We've had spats before about this and

1132
01:16:45,520 --> 01:16:48,920
that we are not quite saying politically, but that doesn't affect our relationships.

1133
01:16:49,880 --> 01:16:53,840
But I thought this was a pretty
ridiculous from the old men. It's it's

1134
01:16:53,920 --> 01:16:56,640
fine. I mean, where is
the video? Where against the video?

1135
01:16:56,920 --> 01:17:00,399
This is what we need in politics. Look, I've been I don't think

1136
01:17:00,399 --> 01:17:03,199
you can. I don't think you
know what. I wouldn't be surprised if

1137
01:17:03,199 --> 01:17:08,199
they no. But if they put
a thing out going, we don't want

1138
01:17:08,239 --> 01:17:11,840
this out in any anywhere at all. Maybe it's like maybe it's like the

1139
01:17:11,880 --> 01:17:14,560
comedy shows in the big arenas,
like the Kevin Hart where they lock your

1140
01:17:14,560 --> 01:17:17,760
phone up. It very well could
be. But at the same time I'm

1141
01:17:17,800 --> 01:17:21,359
not it could be, But I
would also think that, you know,

1142
01:17:21,399 --> 01:17:25,880
if I'm part of his political campaign, I don't want this associated with him

1143
01:17:25,920 --> 01:17:28,560
because it will get a viral.
I mean, if we have old men

1144
01:17:28,640 --> 01:17:30,800
screaming, I'm farting into climate oaks. I mean, come on, it

1145
01:17:30,840 --> 01:17:34,119
just makes everybody look back. It
is interesting because we've had Kevin Williams on

1146
01:17:34,199 --> 01:17:38,920
a few times and I and I, you know, we've seen things change

1147
01:17:38,920 --> 01:17:42,840
in our climate. It feels like
to me that the heavy, heavy,

1148
01:17:42,880 --> 01:17:45,640
heavy rain that's led to flooding seems
like it's a newer thing. But when

1149
01:17:45,680 --> 01:17:48,279
you talk to Kevin, he goes, well, we have data that we

1150
01:17:48,359 --> 01:17:51,439
go back and see, and so
I never know if this is just kind

1151
01:17:51,439 --> 01:17:55,920
of how the earth is. And
yes, with the bigger population, we

1152
01:17:55,960 --> 01:17:58,960
are going to be a little bit
warmer. And you know, I don't

1153
01:17:59,000 --> 01:18:00,239
know where to feel. Like last
sure with the Winner, there was just

1154
01:18:00,319 --> 01:18:04,000
no there was no we had like
what one's nothing. I couldn't and it

1155
01:18:04,039 --> 01:18:09,039
was in April and I didn't need
to run my snowboard, but somebody just

1156
01:18:09,119 --> 01:18:13,960
wanted to. Somebody tweeted at Kevin
today about something similar to that, okay,

1157
01:18:13,960 --> 01:18:15,199
and he and they said, hey, Kevin, are we they're just

1158
01:18:15,239 --> 01:18:18,119
asking the question. Were entering a
heat age, you know? And he

1159
01:18:18,239 --> 01:18:21,119
showed they showed a picture and he
goes, yeah, but I'm gonna give

1160
01:18:21,119 --> 01:18:24,800
you the hear the whole picture here, and it shows going back into the

1161
01:18:24,840 --> 01:18:27,600
thousand years where we were at an
ice age. Any heat, that ice

1162
01:18:27,680 --> 01:18:30,439
then heat. That's what is this
a cyclical thing? And I don't know,

1163
01:18:30,960 --> 01:18:35,359
and I certainly wouldn't want to look
at like somebody who's going, fuck

1164
01:18:35,399 --> 01:18:38,680
you guys, the planet will take
care of itself. I don't know.

1165
01:18:39,079 --> 01:18:42,119
As Kevin Williams has said many many
times, be a good steward of the

1166
01:18:42,159 --> 01:18:44,439
planet. Yeah, be the steward. Let's go. Here's your test.

1167
01:18:44,479 --> 01:18:47,960
You ready, how many billionaires still
own oceanfront property and are buying up oceanfront

1168
01:18:48,000 --> 01:18:51,239
property because if you're scared of the
climate change, you ain't gonna be doing

1169
01:18:51,319 --> 01:18:56,720
that. Yeah, oh they are. Ye Oh. Who doesn't want a

1170
01:18:56,800 --> 01:19:02,239
nice fifty degree winner whatever Buffalo could
have whatever? Yeah, we had that

1171
01:19:02,439 --> 01:19:05,600
nice. I don't think we got
cold. That's a good point. It

1172
01:19:05,680 --> 01:19:10,600
hasn't been about ninety miles in the
other direction, the western direction. It's

1173
01:19:10,600 --> 01:19:13,479
about no, no, no,
no, no, no, it's it's

1174
01:19:13,520 --> 01:19:17,000
about it's about seventy here's why.
Because North Buffalo it's whether like we do

1175
01:19:17,239 --> 01:19:21,600
South Buffalo, like blot all the
way in Chattaqua County. That was annihilated.

1176
01:19:21,720 --> 01:19:25,119
That was a hoax too, because
I was there two days after the

1177
01:19:25,239 --> 01:19:28,319
Thanksgiving one and they wasn't a drop
of snow on the ground. It didn't

1178
01:19:28,319 --> 01:19:31,640
melt that quick. They my brother
lived through it. They got crush lying

1179
01:19:31,720 --> 01:19:36,640
there home. My family's like lying
about. Yes they are. Here's a

1180
01:19:36,680 --> 01:19:40,880
quick follow up. We had talked
to about the swans. Brella liars,

1181
01:19:43,199 --> 01:19:45,800
the Burrillos were ones. They claimed
that they killed the swan in Silver Creek

1182
01:19:46,079 --> 01:19:49,760
and they ate it. We don't
believe it. Can the swans be swapped

1183
01:19:49,760 --> 01:19:53,600
out for the hawks in Manlius.
I don't know. I don't think so.

1184
01:19:53,680 --> 01:19:58,279
Well, they're pretty mean, they
aren't pretty mean. He's almost killed

1185
01:19:58,279 --> 01:20:00,600
every buddy balls. Yes, it's
right. They chased Paul, so that's

1186
01:20:00,720 --> 01:20:03,800
right. That would be Berkeley bringing
from the news ten NBC. Well,

1187
01:20:04,159 --> 01:20:09,880
we had told you about these swans
and Manlius, where some I guess they

1188
01:20:09,920 --> 01:20:14,399
were young people. They claim they
killed and then ate one of the swans,

1189
01:20:14,479 --> 01:20:16,560
and they have a whole swan park. It's a whole pond dedicated to

1190
01:20:16,760 --> 01:20:20,600
these swans and the families, and
it's in Manlius. I think, I

1191
01:20:20,640 --> 01:20:24,119
said, Manilas and everybody laughed at
me. But it's Manlius? Or am

1192
01:20:24,159 --> 01:20:27,239
I saying wrong? Is it Manilas
and this man Camillus? But there's also

1193
01:20:27,279 --> 01:20:30,359
a Manlius. Well you probably you
probably merged the two. It's Manlius,

1194
01:20:30,800 --> 01:20:33,079
Is it Manlius? Yeah? You
sure doesn't matter? Pretty sure? Yeah?

1195
01:20:35,319 --> 01:20:41,359
All right? Well so they so
so. Now the mother's dead and

1196
01:20:41,680 --> 01:20:45,960
some biologists has been raising the what
do they call him? Sigots? Is

1197
01:20:45,000 --> 01:20:48,880
that the name of baby baby Swans? I think it is psyops? No,

1198
01:20:49,199 --> 01:20:55,000
I don't know what it is ms
sygot I think so. Anyway,

1199
01:20:55,399 --> 01:20:58,600
here's the story they went back.
But oh there's more. After the four

1200
01:20:58,720 --> 01:21:02,039
baby Swans and manly Us have finally
returned back to the village pond, reuniting

1201
01:21:02,079 --> 01:21:06,880
with father Manny since mother Faye was
killed. During Memorial Day weekend News Channel

1202
01:21:06,880 --> 01:21:13,039
Lines Ashley Kafaro was there for They're
welcome home the Second's Day, Jeff.

1203
01:21:13,079 --> 01:21:16,399
The four baby Swans are back home
where they belonged. They were dropped off

1204
01:21:16,600 --> 01:21:20,079
read this afternoon, and so far
they are doing well. Now. The

1205
01:21:20,159 --> 01:21:25,960
biologist that has been caring for the
four babies said they are happy and comfortable

1206
01:21:26,039 --> 01:21:29,479
to be back in the pond and
really should have been brought home a month

1207
01:21:29,560 --> 01:21:33,640
ago. The Manlius community is also
thrilled to welcome the baby swans back,

1208
01:21:33,960 --> 01:21:44,199
but are still heartbroken over mother Faye
excitement but said still though Mama, i'man

1209
01:21:44,279 --> 01:21:54,239
sir, they're just so our life
so lyon they belonged. Mainly. As

1210
01:21:54,319 --> 01:21:58,439
for father Manny, he's been ignoring
the four babies, which is actually a

1211
01:21:58,560 --> 01:22:03,119
good sign according to the bio.
Shows any type of aggressive behavior, the

1212
01:22:03,199 --> 01:22:08,159
biologists will have to take him back
to his home in Skinny Outlas and me

1213
01:22:08,239 --> 01:22:14,000
only us. Ashley Kafaro News Channel
Night rights, no vegetation rights or anything.

1214
01:22:14,079 --> 01:22:18,079
Listen to this a tough turn of
events. On Wednesday night, after

1215
01:22:18,199 --> 01:22:23,880
what seemed like a successful reunion between
the four baby swans and their father just

1216
01:22:24,079 --> 01:22:30,600
a few hours earlier, it started
to take a turn. Reverse beds.

1217
01:22:30,000 --> 01:22:33,479
Just yeah, just by looking at
them, you can see they're extremely happy.

1218
01:22:33,520 --> 01:22:38,199
Said this, said Michael, being
the biologist, but that happiness would

1219
01:22:38,199 --> 01:22:42,359
turn into a sad evening instead,
being had to guide village workers to try

1220
01:22:42,359 --> 01:22:46,439
to catch Manny, who went after
his four babies just hours after being reunited

1221
01:22:46,479 --> 01:22:54,720
with them for the first time in
weeks. Now I'm saying, you're you're

1222
01:22:54,800 --> 01:22:58,319
cramping my style. I'm a Dayton. According to this, I got chicks

1223
01:22:58,359 --> 01:23:02,039
coming over. He's literally more the
loss of the female, but he's treating

1224
01:23:02,119 --> 01:23:06,399
this as it's still his territory.
The young ones he doesn't recognize because they've

1225
01:23:06,439 --> 01:23:09,640
been gone for a few weeks.
Short term memory, Yeah, because trust

1226
01:23:09,680 --> 01:23:13,960
the scienced guys. You know,
it's some weeks and obviously they're much bigger.

1227
01:23:14,079 --> 01:23:16,640
So it's a choice for him or
the young ones. So he thinks

1228
01:23:16,680 --> 01:23:20,199
they're gonna try to off him.
Hard choice, That's what I think.

1229
01:23:25,359 --> 01:23:30,840
So this one, this woman with
this woman named Sherry den den Blecker,

1230
01:23:32,199 --> 01:23:36,760
I've never seen den Blecker d e
n b l e y k e R

1231
01:23:40,680 --> 01:23:44,800
a resident of Kirkville. She said
quote and I'm wondering how she sounds.

1232
01:23:45,760 --> 01:23:50,359
I lost Faye and I lost Manny. She didn't feel that bad when her

1233
01:23:50,399 --> 01:23:55,840
own parents died. Right. It's
sad. I was able to hug him.

1234
01:23:56,439 --> 01:24:00,600
I hugged him and kissed him,
said Jennifer Benneck, resident of Manlius.

1235
01:24:00,600 --> 01:24:05,800
Manny's attacking the four babies left them
traumatized. According to Bean, it's

1236
01:24:05,960 --> 01:24:11,079
gonna need As of Wednesday evening,
the babies did not go back to you

1237
01:24:11,199 --> 01:24:15,600
to the pistol whipping him at the
begins, and he found h They found

1238
01:24:15,640 --> 01:24:18,319
a hiding spot underneath the bush.
Bean says the babies will probably not go

1239
01:24:18,399 --> 01:24:21,800
back in the water until Thursday morning. Fortunately they were not injured. That

1240
01:24:21,840 --> 01:24:26,680
would be this morning. Manny will
now be taken to Skinny Atlas, where

1241
01:24:26,720 --> 01:24:30,000
Bean will take care of him until
Manny moves to his new home in Pennsylvania,

1242
01:24:30,079 --> 01:24:38,560
the Aburn. He's been sent to
a halfway house a day at the

1243
01:24:38,640 --> 01:24:41,239
Manliest Pond until they at the end
of the year. But I just thought

1244
01:24:41,239 --> 01:24:45,520
it was a funny follow up to
that thing. That's uh, that's outrageous.

1245
01:24:45,199 --> 01:24:48,359
I hear I need to hear that
lady again. Wow. I love

1246
01:24:48,439 --> 01:24:56,560
him and I can you get that
invested in something that you know what I'm

1247
01:24:56,560 --> 01:25:00,520
saying. She must she must be
no, But we get my kids the

1248
01:25:00,640 --> 01:25:06,000
things. People get more invested sometimes
in animals than they do humans where they

1249
01:25:06,119 --> 01:25:11,479
belong. They were off at three
this afternoon walk and so far they are

1250
01:25:11,600 --> 01:25:15,199
doing well. Now. The biologist
that has been caring for the four Beach,

1251
01:25:15,279 --> 01:25:18,720
she really annunciates everything biologists to deep
back in the pond and really should

1252
01:25:18,720 --> 01:25:24,359
have been brought home a month ago. The Manlius community is also thrilled to

1253
01:25:24,640 --> 01:25:29,039
welcome the baby Swan's back, but
are still hard working. Her mother fay

1254
01:25:30,159 --> 01:25:36,439
excitement, but said still though,
Mama, I mean, sir, we

1255
01:25:36,560 --> 01:25:42,399
used to hang out smoke cigarettes together. We do a little stitching, bitch.

1256
01:25:42,520 --> 01:25:49,239
I bought we were both gonna win
the fuck well, I mean so

1257
01:25:50,439 --> 01:25:56,000
yeah, check from that video.
Ear, I remember a guy coming in

1258
01:25:56,119 --> 01:25:59,199
talking more of this dog Diablo who
got the people who go, yeah,

1259
01:25:59,359 --> 01:26:01,359
yeah, guy, I'm not gonna
say. His name is jail now,

1260
01:26:01,760 --> 01:26:06,399
was it Limo, No, Teddy
Laura? Yeah? And like seeing jail

1261
01:26:06,479 --> 01:26:10,720
now yeah for like stocking or harassment
or something. I don't know. We

1262
01:26:10,720 --> 01:26:15,039
gotta look it up in anyway.
Um yeah. And he he was like,

1263
01:26:15,840 --> 01:26:16,720
I know, it's like to lose
a pet. He goes, he

1264
01:26:16,760 --> 01:26:19,000
goes, it's like losing a good
child. And Tommy goes, oh no,

1265
01:26:19,119 --> 01:26:23,720
no no no no, no,
no no no no. A dog

1266
01:26:23,880 --> 01:26:27,319
eats on the floor, craps outside, and when he dies, you go

1267
01:26:27,439 --> 01:26:30,479
and get another one. That's not
like losing a good child. That's why

1268
01:26:30,479 --> 01:26:32,760
I don't understand the attachment to I
understand why you got attached to an animal.

1269
01:26:33,119 --> 01:26:36,119
I think the grieving point has gotta
be like more than like or like

1270
01:26:36,279 --> 01:26:40,960
less than three weeks. Okay enough, I think some people you miss here.

1271
01:26:41,000 --> 01:26:43,640
I'm sure people missed their dog,
and I would never want to belittle

1272
01:26:43,680 --> 01:26:47,279
that. But I've always had a
problem Like you got a kid lost versus

1273
01:26:47,520 --> 01:26:51,159
your pet loss. I think it
would be Wait, it's so much more

1274
01:26:51,239 --> 01:26:54,920
devastating. I couldn't even really well. We had we worked with the guy

1275
01:26:55,479 --> 01:26:57,960
Tom Georgia passed away. He loses
his dog. He was like the straw

1276
01:26:58,039 --> 01:27:00,119
for like a day and a half. He buys a new dog, so

1277
01:27:00,239 --> 01:27:01,920
we never heard about the old dog
again. He was like thrilled. Yeah,

1278
01:27:01,960 --> 01:27:08,079
dogs are supposed to crap outside Ironsmoke

Fee the floor the galtime man, I

1338
01:31:45,439 --> 01:31:49,600

the song bomber a while it's to be

one. He would be singing,
Yeah, that's right, five five two

1340
01:31:55,600 --> 01:32:00,239
or six eighty eight sixty sixteen.
Sorry for And we call him Simon de

1341
01:32:00,319 --> 01:32:04,359
Grum. We had Simon On.
He discovered the missing or the stolen key,

1342
01:32:04,439 --> 01:32:10,840
I should say, behind a little
mom and pop grocer in Charlotte.

1343
01:32:10,960 --> 01:32:14,760
And now Simon had a lot of
issue, Simon, how are you?

1344
01:32:15,840 --> 01:32:18,600
I'm doing all right for an old
day. So what happened? Simon?

1345
01:32:18,720 --> 01:32:25,560
You bought a scratch off ticket.
I went out to my local little store

1346
01:32:25,680 --> 01:32:29,680
that I found my Kia had.
By the way, it's your lucky store,

1347
01:32:29,760 --> 01:32:32,800
buddy, that's my lucky star.
I just stopped in to pick up

1348
01:32:32,840 --> 01:32:35,520
a lot of the ticket. I
get one of those foot dollars scratch offs

1349
01:32:35,560 --> 01:32:39,840
every day, hoping that I hit
that you know, big pay day,

1350
01:32:39,880 --> 01:32:44,720
which never breathing happens, of course. But I bought the ticket, walked

1351
01:32:44,720 --> 01:32:48,079
out of the store, popped in
my truck, scratched off this ticket and

1352
01:32:48,239 --> 01:32:54,319
it was a five dollar loose change, which means there's like five lines on

1353
01:32:54,439 --> 01:32:59,520
this ticket. It Kevin Noh's okay, I don't know five dollar loose change

1354
01:32:59,680 --> 01:33:02,199
for Chris Us Okay, all right, okay, So Dan's familiar with the

1355
01:33:02,239 --> 01:33:05,079
five hour loose chamee. Well,
Kevin is another guy on the podcast.

1356
01:33:05,319 --> 01:33:10,399
I don't gamble much. Jesus don't
like it. So Danny said, no,

1357
01:33:10,720 --> 01:33:15,800
Danny, gamble of the collection plate. That's it. Yeah, So

1358
01:33:15,079 --> 01:33:18,800
I scratch your stick it off and
it's a two time winner sight scratch off

1359
01:33:18,880 --> 01:33:21,680
the amount. You know, I
won five bucks, sanks too, stunt

1360
01:33:21,720 --> 01:33:26,199
bucks. Okay, get out of
my truck, going the store, go

1361
01:33:26,359 --> 01:33:29,079
to cash the ticket from the same
person I bought it from, and she

1362
01:33:29,199 --> 01:33:32,439
goes, I'm sorry it was cashed
in. I said, you're right.

1363
01:33:33,119 --> 01:33:38,880
I figured they were bumps on my
ball. Yeah. Read it again and

1364
01:33:38,960 --> 01:33:43,079
it says she goes, I'm sorry, but it's already been paid out.

1365
01:33:44,399 --> 01:33:48,960
So of course I'm trying not to
get upset the store here and I'm going,

1366
01:33:49,119 --> 01:33:54,239
please explain to me how I could
just buye this ticket from you.

1367
01:33:54,920 --> 01:33:58,600
So sit in my truck, scratch
it off, come back in and face

1368
01:33:58,760 --> 01:34:03,000
cash. Not how that happened.
The only thing I can think, Simon,

1369
01:34:03,439 --> 01:34:08,560
is a cashier scan the back of
these, claimed the winner and took

1370
01:34:08,600 --> 01:34:13,439
the money. I'm thinking, key
of boys, payack, key boys got

1371
01:34:13,520 --> 01:34:15,760
you. That's the only thing,
because you bought it scratched it off.

1372
01:34:15,800 --> 01:34:20,239
So what did they say to you, Well, they said they've never seen

1373
01:34:20,279 --> 01:34:25,920
anything like this happened before. Okay, because the authorization number that came up

1374
01:34:26,279 --> 01:34:30,239
on the ticket that said it was
paid was a different authorization number than the

1375
01:34:30,359 --> 01:34:33,319
store has. Yeah, it shouldn't
tell you where the store and what where

1376
01:34:33,319 --> 01:34:39,319
it was where it was paid out. Yeah, it doesn't tell you where

1377
01:34:39,359 --> 01:34:42,760
it's paid out, you know,
by name, it's a it's numerical,

1378
01:34:42,920 --> 01:34:45,039
but by the authorization number, and
you can look that up and find out

1379
01:34:45,079 --> 01:34:50,840
what the store is. Yeah,
ezac backtly. So what they did was

1380
01:34:50,920 --> 01:34:54,760
they on earth a ticket. You
know, they gave me a ten bucks

1381
01:34:54,800 --> 01:34:58,079
and you know, of course they
apologize. I said, you know,

1382
01:34:58,199 --> 01:35:02,439
for shifting giggles. Let me buy
the next ticket on that step. The

1383
01:35:02,560 --> 01:35:06,640
ticket I bought was number fifty one, the one that won, and said

1384
01:35:06,680 --> 01:35:12,239
that I already catched it in.
I bought number fifty two because nobody had

1385
01:35:12,279 --> 01:35:15,239
bought one in the thirty seconds it
took me to scratch off that freaking ticket.

1386
01:35:17,039 --> 01:35:20,119
They ran that one and it came
out. Of course it was a

1387
01:35:20,159 --> 01:35:26,479
loser, but they ran it anyways. It came up with the right authorization

1388
01:35:26,600 --> 01:35:31,720
code and it was a loser.
That's weird. So that's why I take

1389
01:35:32,000 --> 01:35:40,159
our governor canty, whok, I
ain't get my ten dollars, a bitch.

1390
01:35:40,399 --> 01:35:43,920
I did not vote for you for
this to happen. It wasn't it

1391
01:35:44,079 --> 01:35:46,800
wasn't. It wasn't even about that
you know, shit happens to the grump

1392
01:35:48,000 --> 01:35:54,399
and then he exposes it. That's
what I've been doing stuff. He's the

1393
01:35:54,479 --> 01:36:00,279
IT team. What's that shit?
It happened to let it happened to some

1394
01:36:00,359 --> 01:36:09,119
others? Ten BC has a brand
new report streets. Well, no,

1395
01:36:09,800 --> 01:36:14,039
we have a new reporter on the
streets. I could see him paired up

1396
01:36:14,039 --> 01:36:16,760
with Berkeley, though, I'd rather
have Simon. You know what, No,

1397
01:36:17,000 --> 01:36:25,560
no, fuck these Why what?
Why what did you do? Why

1398
01:36:25,600 --> 01:36:27,840
does Berkeley not like you? Because
I was about to say something, why

1399
01:36:27,880 --> 01:36:30,000
does he not like you? I
like Berkeley? Oh he's blocking me a

1400
01:36:30,079 --> 01:36:34,039
long time ago, Billy, Well, because you probably did something stupid online

1401
01:36:34,119 --> 01:36:38,439
to him. I would not do
something like that. I may have pisted

1402
01:36:38,439 --> 01:36:42,119
in its coffee, but there's no
no way I would have done something stupid.

1403
01:36:42,319 --> 01:36:44,039
Well, all right, all right, let me let me rephrase that.

1404
01:36:44,079 --> 01:36:47,600
Then, let me rephrase that,
because that wasn't nice for me to

1405
01:36:47,680 --> 01:36:51,720
say stupid. Because you don't do
stupid things. You do passionate things from

1406
01:36:51,760 --> 01:36:57,920
a from a a well meaning perspective. Yes I do, No, I

1407
01:36:58,000 --> 01:37:01,239
do. I really think that at
least that's where your point of view is

1408
01:37:01,239 --> 01:37:04,920
coming from. Your you you mean, well, you just sometimes have grump

1409
01:37:04,960 --> 01:37:10,800
ways about you. But I think
it's not about says Billy. It's about

1410
01:37:10,960 --> 01:37:15,239
supposing what I saw. Yeah,
I didn't off my shoulders. You need

1411
01:37:15,479 --> 01:37:17,800
you need to buy more tickets and
see if you hit another one and see

1412
01:37:17,840 --> 01:37:20,199
if it's that same store, because
then you can know it's that store.

1413
01:37:20,560 --> 01:37:24,319
Well, it's a it's a weird
thing that, um, this happened.

1414
01:37:24,359 --> 01:37:27,039
But but there were other people this
has happened to. You got to scan

1415
01:37:27,199 --> 01:37:30,359
the whole I used to work in
my buddy's dad's convenience store. But okay,

1416
01:37:30,720 --> 01:37:33,000
okay, And then you get a
little the pack would come shrink wrapped

1417
01:37:33,279 --> 01:37:36,279
and there would be a little card
in there and you would scan that quote

1418
01:37:36,359 --> 01:37:43,000
unquote activate all the right now that
he's are being able to be sold okay,

1419
01:37:43,239 --> 01:37:47,359
and then once it's activated, everything's
free reign. So somehow seems like

1420
01:37:47,439 --> 01:37:53,319
maybe there's a mistake in the card
that comes in the pack, or somebody

1421
01:37:53,520 --> 01:37:57,760
playing games re shrink wrapped it and
somehow scammed the system. Yeah, I

1422
01:37:57,840 --> 01:38:00,760
don't think it's a little No,
it's not the governor. But what I

1423
01:38:00,800 --> 01:38:03,239
think he's saying is like, bring
it to the attention because the lotto I

1424
01:38:03,399 --> 01:38:08,279
believe funds the schools, right,
yeah, right, And that's what you

1425
01:38:08,359 --> 01:38:12,279
want to believe. Well, I
thought some of the money went actually,

1426
01:38:12,479 --> 01:38:17,119
I thought some of the money went
to school Simon, Simon, Simon,

1427
01:38:17,479 --> 01:38:20,680
I think some of that money went
to schools, the computers some of it

1428
01:38:20,960 --> 01:38:26,319
once and I don't I don't know, I really did. I totally believe

1429
01:38:26,359 --> 01:38:30,239
that paper at the region's exams.
But either way it is it is residents

1430
01:38:30,319 --> 01:38:34,960
being scammed. I mean, I
think that Simon is smart enough to realize

1431
01:38:35,000 --> 01:38:39,840
that probably Kathy Hokels I could do
anything. But if somebody should, would

1432
01:38:39,880 --> 01:38:42,960
you call the Attorney General's office.
I blame Rhode Island. I feel like

1433
01:38:43,000 --> 01:38:47,399
they're trying to attack did you,
Uh yeah, I know, I'll hear

1434
01:38:47,439 --> 01:38:51,079
you. But but other people on
your thread, Danny said, had had

1435
01:38:51,159 --> 01:38:56,079
responded saying that this has happened to
them. Yes, and it happened.

1436
01:38:56,319 --> 01:39:01,760
It's more than a coincidence. Somebody
enough, it's been up that they use

1437
01:39:01,840 --> 01:39:06,840
a lottery to take away people's social
security money, because that's all it's really

1438
01:39:06,920 --> 01:39:13,279
for, just tinkeet their money back. So so you think the lotto is

1439
01:39:13,359 --> 01:39:16,359
put in place to try to get
people who have who don't have a lot

1440
01:39:16,439 --> 01:39:24,079
of money a little entertainment and get
the money that they're given whatever government funding.

1441
01:39:24,119 --> 01:39:27,119
And it doesn't have to be just
social security. But you go ahead.

1442
01:39:28,359 --> 01:39:30,920
I'm not gonna swear. I'm not
you're allowed to swear. It's a

1443
01:39:30,960 --> 01:39:34,279
podcast. Say whatever you want.
It's I'm gonna take it by for Saturday

1444
01:39:35,279 --> 01:39:43,800
Freight sent five where the big lotto
that's coming on. I want to talk

1445
01:39:43,840 --> 01:39:47,920
about that one because I bought twenty
bucks. I lost one of those fucking

1446
01:39:48,000 --> 01:39:57,640
tickets somewhere some clefts probably pick the
fucking thing up one fifty sixty bucks and

1447
01:39:57,880 --> 01:40:05,840
I got sucked again. Governor Hope
will fall, I've missed thet They got

1448
01:40:06,000 --> 01:40:11,319
to stop this ship. Yeah,
but you think that's where the lotta was

1449
01:40:11,399 --> 01:40:15,079
designed. It was a way to
get back government money. Oh, there's

1450
01:40:15,119 --> 01:40:18,479
no doubt in my mind. Though
everybody on such security buys a lot of

1451
01:40:18,520 --> 01:40:21,920
the things. Well, I mean, okay, okay, but people of

1452
01:40:23,079 --> 01:40:26,640
all walks of life buy a lotto
tickets. I will tell you that I

1453
01:40:26,760 --> 01:40:30,960
do think that a lot of times
the people that are most into the gambling

1454
01:40:30,000 --> 01:40:34,319
are probably the ones that are don't
have the means to lose the money.

1455
01:40:34,680 --> 01:40:40,399
They don't really have the dollars to
ten dollars to lose, but there are

1456
01:40:41,039 --> 01:40:45,039
goddamn do they want that million or
whatever. They think it's going to change

1457
01:40:45,079 --> 01:40:46,960
their lives forever, and they're chasing
them, and it's kind of sad when

1458
01:40:47,000 --> 01:40:50,560
you think about that. Well,
Billy, you know, I've been at

1459
01:40:50,640 --> 01:40:58,640
lottery agents before where the people in
front of me will throw in like numbers

1460
01:40:58,680 --> 01:41:03,880
on the daily lattle in the bill, the look them up the web tun

1461
01:41:03,920 --> 01:41:09,000
bucks. I'm going, Hannah,
how do they do this at fifty cents

1462
01:41:09,039 --> 01:41:13,800
here? Twenty five cents there?
No? I told me could I once?

1463
01:41:13,880 --> 01:41:20,640
I said? Sorry? Holy shit? Yeah? Well, Simon,

1464
01:41:20,840 --> 01:41:25,720
what else has happening? So you
got your money anyway, so that's a

1465
01:41:25,800 --> 01:41:30,680
good thing. They were kind of

1481
01:42:39,319 --> 01:42:43,560

1496
01:43:50,560 --> 01:43:56,239
pleasure to be scolded by the grump. Hey, you know a new asport.

01:44:01,359 --> 01:44:09,520

That's like an angry racing Randy. He's

1499
01:44:10,159 --> 01:44:12,960
there were all these characters when we
did the break room, Oh my gosh,

1500
01:44:13,000 --> 01:44:16,439
And I didn't even it was.
It was what I wanted. I

1501
01:44:16,520 --> 01:44:19,359
mean, it was what I was
trying to do, but I didn't realize

1502
01:44:19,439 --> 01:44:23,239
we were doing it in the middle
of it, and I and at times

1503
01:44:23,319 --> 01:44:26,439
I felt like other people on the
show were a little resistant to all this

1504
01:44:26,520 --> 01:44:29,640
stuff, and I was pushing anyway. And then it just seemed to all

1505
01:44:29,760 --> 01:44:32,039
kind of come together. So every
Christmas we would have ever to come in.

1506
01:44:32,319 --> 01:44:35,399
Yeah, and it got to be
like nuts. Uh. Tommy would

1507
01:44:35,399 --> 01:44:39,439
get so pissed at me because I
would. I'm the one who like goes,

1508
01:44:39,479 --> 01:44:41,479
hey, we're having a party,
right, And then I'd have to

1509
01:44:41,600 --> 01:44:45,880
run it and run aboard and make
sure nobody was swearing all talking during the

1510
01:44:45,920 --> 01:44:50,159
show, just like yeah, and
they're drinking and we're brought you provided the

1511
01:44:50,239 --> 01:44:54,239
food and they were bringing their own
stuff, right. And then other people

1512
01:44:54,279 --> 01:44:57,479
are trying to do radio shows like
outside, are we leave the door open?

1513
01:44:57,840 --> 01:45:01,960
Tom Georgia is trying to do traffic. They're out yelling the mini waders.

1514
01:45:02,000 --> 01:45:04,520
There's a backup at the mini at
one point. At one point,

1515
01:45:04,600 --> 01:45:08,880
somebody I think the be brought in
this school chorus to sing Christmas songs,

1516
01:45:09,000 --> 01:45:13,880
right, and somebody picked up their
camera and started taking pictures and then Mike

1517
01:45:13,960 --> 01:45:17,760
the dead hey, put your camera
down taking pictures. It grustled the phone

1518
01:45:17,760 --> 01:45:20,600
away from I had talked to the
guy, like can you get the guy

1519
01:45:20,720 --> 01:45:28,199
his camera back? Clients alcohol on
a kids corse? No, Like yeah,

1520
01:45:29,000 --> 01:45:30,520
Jay Fry and his crew shows up. They got like a whole like

1521
01:45:30,720 --> 01:45:33,600
leader of or they got a whole
like case of beer and stuff they're drinking

1522
01:45:33,640 --> 01:45:40,399
in the cream room. Oh,
we had just it was for so many

1523
01:45:40,479 --> 01:45:44,439
great people on that show. So
funny because I guess I blocked it all

1524
01:45:44,520 --> 01:45:47,439
out in my mind after I left
that it was a great show. That

1525
01:45:47,600 --> 01:45:50,279
was a great show, and I
think they do a nice job still,

1526
01:45:50,319 --> 01:45:54,560
but I don't. It wasn't like
that. This was chaotic. Oh yeah,

1527
01:45:54,720 --> 01:45:57,239
it was organized chaos on our end. Yeah, I mean. And

1528
01:45:57,359 --> 01:45:59,520
by the way, Simon wasn't the
only grump on the show. We also

1529
01:45:59,560 --> 01:46:01,920
