selon to watch whatever she wants to watch. Yeah, because I'm a great
guy. Yeah you know what I we learned yesterday that I think you might

easy, likable like the dog, right, great temperament as a tail
at wags and easily tray. Yes, right, so you know then then
it's that she's when she starts snoring, then I know, okay, all
right, could now it's my TV so you flipped on. So I turned
on YouTube because she watched like Castle and stuff like that, right, so
you know, like she watched all these crime shows. I wonder if she's
playing something. But anyway, so you know, just taking notes. She's
taking notes. So then you know I turned on YouTube, like, oh
it's Bill and Foodie and Doug Phelps. Yeah, oh cool, they were
doing the things so you can watch us there. Uh, support our all
our great sponsors, you know, as we we think about this around the
holiday shop local. A lot of our sponsors are local. Please go to
Leo's and get some up from there. Oh gosh, yeah Christmas right,
guess all all the sweet treats right there, I mean all that they have
everything. Yeah, get a little holiday escape and stock up. You know
how you have people stop by during the holidays, go to Iron Smoke,
load up on some of their whiskey. That way, you got a gift
today, those little mini bottles of you good stuff. I don't know about
that. I don't know about that. That's a good idea. Should talk
to Tommy. Yeah, try we had an idea. We have an idea.
That's a little idea. Some sad news to start today. He died
now Bill Well a friend of mine. I think he died a couple of
days ago, and I've been somewhat negligent in mentioning it. But Paula Paul
de Llella was a guy I had met through radio. He would always do
the stage at party in the park and he and I had become somewhat close,
Uh, Paulie. I was over his house for Christmas party one year,
and he was always like once in a while, we just all and
just check in on me. And Uh. I didn't see him a whole
lot this past year, you know, not being in radio and so I
wasn't really doing a lot of the party in the park stuff, and Paulie
and I talked, and I think one of the last times I was with
Paulie was me, Paulie and a guy that was uh, people referred to
as Wayne, Wayne the hot dog Man, and he was the guy who
had the braids and his beard and all. And I wound up in a
trailer like in the back at party in the park they had those private like
RVs and stuff and those porticle green rooms. Dude, I got fucking I
got hot boxed. Oh yeah, Like those two were getting so fucking high
in Wayne ga high and Uh, I was sitting like you know, the
like and sometimes in the RVs and things, they have a table the window
and it's almost like a booth at a at a restaurant. I'm in the
center that are on the ends. I can't get out. They're fucking passing
the back right in front of me. And Uh. I enjoyed both those
guys and Wayne passed away and then uh, a couple of months ago,
Uh what were they smoking? Wait? But wait yeah, but I'm just
saying, like, did you think it could have been Jo? I don't.
I think I think Wayne just you know, they these guys, these
cats were probably knocking in their seventies now and uh and uh, but just
really wonderful, like sweet, I just I don't know, I don't know
how to describe man. Paulie was one of these guys who he owned Backstreets,
which was a big club back in the day. Oh, he owned
okay, yeah, that was before my time. Mine too, But you
had heard about it, right, because there were a lot of bands and
things. Oh yeah, every every band guy in Rochester I know, brags
about the old days. Yeah. The way I talk about the nineties is
if it was the time to be alive, right man, backstreets was the
place you wanted to play, Petty Arcade, Orange Monkey, just drop them
all. So Paulie All he ended up in the hospital. He was in
Highland and he called me and he said, uh, I was I get
a call? Hey man, I'm like, Paulie, what's going on?
He is that I'm in the hospital. I said, how you doing that?
All right? I got to, you know, to run a bunch
of tests and I'd love to see you. And I said, okay,
uh so I would text like, you know, hey, I was coming
by today. I don't know if I'll be around. I got a lot
of tests, so I wasn't sure when to go when not to go,
And then life takes over, you know, and I never got. God,
it just fucking breaks my heart. Everybody answered you, I never I
never got that. I never went and I feel like a very negligent human
being. I truly do, because I could tell from having seen Paulie.
I think I I went. I think we caught up with each other over
the summer for a minute, and then he had called me when Wayne died
and then we and we talked then and then we had talked a few more
times, and uh, he said I want to see you, and then
I never went. And then his wife was texting me saying, you know
he's having tests today. This is you know, his wife and from his
phone, and then I ran into somebody who said yet, Oh it was
Tommy, Tommy Burnett. Tommy said to me Tommy was doing a benefit for
paul and uh at Irons he had been no but this was like in the
fall. I mean he had been in the hospital god September October, and
uh, Tommy was in here because we were talking about the Hootchin Nanny Fast
that they were doing, and he and I were talking about Paulie off Mike
and he said, yeah, he goes, yeah, he goes. Dude,
he's just really out of it. And I said, I know,
I've been wanting to go see him. He goes. I don't even know
if he'd recognize anybody at this point, and that was it, and then
I just I never did and I it's just one of those things, man,
you feel like I don't know. I don't know. I don't even
know how to describe it. I don't even know what I honestly, I
don't know what abody says, because I think we all get it. I
mean, it's one of those where you start to go, is my life
so fucking important? I couldn't go see a guy who had called me and
said I want to see you, and I didn't go. Now, I
kept using like I didn't want to show I was. I always worry too,
because you know, Paulie and I were friends. Uh, I love
doated on his grand loved his granddaughter, and you know, just I mean,
just one of these I don't He was like, uh, you know,
he had tattoos up his neck and stuff, but he which I think.
I say that because I think people judge a book by its cover,
and all I want to say is one of the kindest, most genuine,
sweetest human beings I'd ever been around, complimentary, loving, loving, just
loving. And I think that a lot of times when we see someone with
big tattoos and things it's going on to that guy's life. And I don't
know why, and maybe it was my exposure to being around Weez and Joe
T and Joe T being a guy. For people who may not be familiar
with this, Weeze was is a legendary radio personality and in the National Radio
Hall of Fame and his he had a tattoo shop and he used to let
the artist experiment on him so he was covered in ink. And Joe T,
who I loved. Joe would bust balls. I mean, he could
do some of the meanest busting ball stuff and yet had one of the biggest,
sweetest hearts. And that's why I was always like, these are the
kind of people. As a kid, you're always told your mom would grab
your old closer as you walk by, you know what I mean. And
as I got older, I'm like, no, these are fucking great people,
great loving people who did great work for our community quietly. They ever
grand stand it and did stuff they did quietly, And I don't know,
I feel bad, but you start to go in those moments like I'm so
important, I don't have time. You know, all we have is time.
And I always tell people this used to say it. I think said
to me multiple times. Yeah, the greatest gift you could give someone is
your time. I they'll all take money, Danny. I believe that so
much because when someone chooses, I mean, if we can stop sometimes you
know, like you see the phone ring and you see a name on there,
like yeah, and they all right, I'll give you. I have
people in my life that are going to talk my balls and I don't have
time, and sometimes I have We all get there, but at the same
time, but they're calling you, they're giving you your time. There's some
reason. I don't know. I don't know. It's easy to get sentimental
when when something no longer there. Yes, because if Paulie were to call.
Somebody walked in here tonight and uh, I was busy, and they're
like, hey, got a buddy, We're gonna go have a pop.
Want to join us? And I said no, I'm getting ready for a
the pod and they're like, all right, real quick, you're not starting
for like an hour, and I called I got you know, and I
did. I wanted to make sure that I had audio and things. And
I was like then, I go, well, that person, didn't you
know these people that come in here and go Hey man, you know you
got all these people on the podcast, and I'm funnier than all. All
right, yeah, the person is extremely funny. I'm not going to deny
that. I just you know, it's all rightious you start with that ship
to me, I'm like, Okay, I'm funny, don't. I don't
need that. But and then so Paulie Dela if you knew him, he
ran the stage Lilac Festival. He did a lot of things at the the
Armory. What was the one that had the big problem with auditory? No,
no, not auditorium across the street from h M. It is the
Armory. Okay, you know I'm thinking is their lawyer? Yes, yes,
but paul used to do a lot of state stuff there. PAULI,
uh it just handled everything. And that's just a thankless shitty job attitude because
everyone's, oh god, and he was great at it, really great at
it. And I've probably met him then before. Sure you have. I'm
sure you have. Sorry to hear about that. One of my heroes in
life exited the planet. Keith Richards No no, no, no, no,
but one of excuse me, Mary leg no, not Harry. This
guy from Television City in Hollywood Boy, no way. Norman Lear years old
passed away and I watched an old interview, really old interview with him and
Letterman, Like Letterman didn't even have a couch, who was like office chairs
next to the desk. And Dave's in a sweater, so this had to
be like old NBC. And uh, He's talking to Norman and he says
to him, you know, Norm talked about Norman like I yeah, like
people talk about Johny car Johnny was one of these guys who if he just
stopped smoking, don't we all do that? And normal? Yeah, people
prefer Dave Matthews. You know what I saw Dave. I saw Dave six
times. But let me tell you something. How great is that for Dave
Matthews? Should love that, You should love that. You could almost be
on that that name basis with your fans. Uh. So he was talking
about all in the family. And of course he did other shows as well,
like this is one of my favorites show, I Love Safford and Son.
That was my favorite. I should have grabbed that theme song love that.
That was like my favorite for a while. Was the theme song was
my ringtone? Okay, wow, Doon and doone and done, and do
it now. I thought this stuff was like really smart. So we talked
about because Dave goes, you know, he was Archie was conservative, and
then he said you kind of had the juxtaposition in Mike. Yeah, and
he goes, well, he was like, I'm gonna misspeak. But to
paraphrase, he goes, he was like an asshole liberal, like a like
a too far left liberal at the time. And he said, but we
would get a lot of complaints. And at one point there was one episode
where Mike has a friend come visit and Mike's friend went to England and he
spoke. He spoke well, but he went to England and he wore glasses.
In Archie's mind, he was the gay pejorative with the f They said
on TV he's a blank and he goes, why because he wears glasses.
He goes, no, he's a four eyes because he wears glasses. He's
a blank because he's a blank. But then it turns out one of the
guys Archie hangs out with at the bar that Archie just idolizes and plays football.
Everybody knew but Archie, but Archie, and so a lot of the
complaint letters, he said, we would get and he goes, probably from
some bigoted people, but they would They would always go, why do you
have to make such a nice guy look bad? And he said President Nixon
sent us a letter a complaint on the episode about the gay guy. Why
do you always have to make Archie look like such a such a nice fella
look like such an idiot? Okay, And I go that that was part
of part of the joke was to show you that being too far in either
direction doesn't know, I really feel like it's sowhere in the middle. You
have to be like extreme left or right. No, And if you actually
stopped and paid attention to the show, they teaching you a lesson. Yeah,
I mean, he said. There was even like one where he threatened
to fire everybody if CBS didn't air this. And it was an episode I
don't remember this one. Uh, Mike was studying for exams and he was
so uptight that he was that he was experiencing impotence, and he and uh
little Gurriel what was her name on the show. It's a little bit for
my time, all right, So I'm familiar with some of the gas.
Yeah, didn't Rob Reiner play it was Rob re So Rob Rider played Mike.
He had his experience. Yeah yeah, yeah, he's almost research.
He almost that guy now. So he said, uh yeah that they they
they they weren't going to air the impenance episode. And he said that he
was ready to fire everybody. He's like, I'm just gonna send everybody home,
fire him and that's it, and uh, that didn't happen. And
then he said that he was producing. He was on a leting ring because
he was producing something and Robin Williams did five minutes to stand up. All
of a sudden, Robin comes out and Dave's like getting frustrated with Robin.
He goes, I wish we could because Robin's just stop. Were there stories
about his mind went so fast you would steal other people's acts and not realized
that he was stealing it. No, no, no, no, no,
there's not a they say. That's a very true thing. Bobby Slayton
said it on this podcast. Bobby said Slayton said it, Bobby, Bobby
and uh Bobby and uh Robin Williams were friends, really good friends, and
they both kind of started in San Francisco doing stand up. And he said
he Bobby said that that there was a joke that Robin he got word that
Robin did it on TV, and he's like, Robin, he called him
and then he goes and then he did the joke in a special. It
was it was Bobby's joke and he just did it. He goes. He
just it was like and he he couldn't even realize. I don't think he
did it. I don't think he did it on purpose, but at least
Bobby made it seem like he did it on Purp. You can go back
and hear that episode. Bobby Slayton was fantastic when he was on Uh Normal
though. Here's one I was always really really a big fan. And now
I have to read the book and it's one of those books I had on
the list and I never read. His book came out recently. He was
in his nineties, almost dead, the Norman Lear story, and he well,
I think he was still working because I thought they were doing another Oh
those guys never stopped. No, but he was either consulting on a reboot
that was on Netflix, but it was it was more I think with either
a Latino family, but it was what was the one with Schneider. Oh,
oh, I know, I know the show you're to Valerie Bertinelly Yeah,
yeah, yeah, yeah, oh gosh, and it was that was
Jamie part of that too? Or no about the reboot? Yeah no,
that was Rob. That was Rob robthing like that, Yeah, being Rob.
But this is no, this is something else but he but it was
basically based on Norman Lear's The hell was that show with Snyder? Was the
thing in Too Close for Comfort? No, that's not it. Oh no,
I know what you're talking about. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah,
yeah, yeah, yea yea yea yeah, okay, all right, never
mind, Yeah, I know the show you're talking. It's gonna drive me
nuts on jetwis Schneider. Wasn't he the super? Yeah he was a super?
Yeah, ok so I and that was a Norman Leer. So Norman
Lear was consulting on the Netflix thing and he was well in it was nineties.
But he talked about his mom and I always thought this was really really
interesting because I had heard an interview once and he said, one day at
a time, one day at a time, thanks all those shows when I
was a little kid. We're in syndication. Yes, so when you're home
all day with mom, and there's nothing to watch but soap operas, and
she's got to change the channel. You get like The Brady Bunch, you
get all those shows that came out in the seventies. Yes, uh,
one day at a time, and I'm pretty sure they did it one day
at a time on Netflix. But this was an interview you talked about his
mom was like the most narcissistic person he had ever met. Now, his
mother was Ukrainian, his father was Russian. Uh, And they were a
Jewish family, and he grew up in Hartford, Connecticut. But this he's
has this on his book tour. He was staying on his book tour a
lot. But I found a little cleaner audio and someone almost seems to be
interrupting him and prompting him along. My great great friend John Mitchell called me
on a Sunday morning. John Mitchell was president at the time of the American
Academy of Television Nights and Sciences and a lovely manner television. Yes, yes,
and uh and a good friend. And he called. He said,
no, man, I have no business doing this, but I just had
to tell you. We decided to form a Hall of Fame, and I
want to take you here. The first inductees will be and then he rattled
William Paley, Edward R. Morrow, David sin Off, Patty Chayevsky,
Lucil Bowl, Milton Berle, and me, Wow, that's the inductee inaugural
plot called my mother so instantly called my mother mom. I just got just
telling him, you can't believe it's a gonna startle Hall of Fame. The
first inductees are and I recited, you know, Paley and Son and me,
And she said, listen, if that's what they want to do,
who am I to say? And that was that's my mother all my life
with her of your success. Yeah, my mother, My mother had a
wonderful time with my success, but she would never let me know it.
There's a lot of old time. You fucking believe that. Well, if
that's what they want to do, who am I to say? Right?
Right? Yeah? Yeah, was his mother in the business. No,
okay, that's even worse. And I don't think Norman Lear had like all
the family and stuff if he was in his fifties when he wrote that.
Yeah, there's still hope for us. But yeah, I mean that that's
awful. I mean, like Barry Sanders. I don't want to break it
the sports, but Barry Sanders always got mad. I hear there's a great
document there is. I've heard a lot of great reviews. You my uncle
watched it, who like barely his attention to point. Yeah, I watch
this Barry Sanders guy, Oh my gosh, you love it. Dan did
you watch him play? I'm like, yeah, that's my generation. But
Barry Sanders's father loved Earl Campbell and always told Barry either to this day you
know Earl Campbell? Wow? Oh yeah, So I mean that happened.
Like David Chase wrote Olivia Soprano's character to be like his mother. His mother
was a textbook narcissist, and that's where he based Tony Soprano's mother's character off
his own mother. Who am I to say, if they that's what they
want to do, I don't know why they'd want you. That's like,
that's horrible. Gosh, well her, you did even more in two thousand
and one. You have nine to eleven. Right, So everybody's waiting for
South Park's response to this, because south Park would do real time like like
like the Simpsons and Family, I know those other shows they needed nine months
to create an episode. I think to this day they still need my nine
months or at least six months to create an episode. South Park could do
it like a day or two. So they're waiting for south Park to respond
to what happened at nine to eleven and make a parody of it, or
they didn't know how to do it, so they called Norman Lear oh and
really advised them and how to make fun of bin Laden and how to unite
the country because all of a sudden, now we're going into Iraq and we
got all this other stuff going on. That's amazing. I didn't know he
advised them how to fix it. Yeah, it's great. Well, Norman
le or Rest in Peace one hundred and one. Well, take a moment
when we come back. A show I'd like to bring to television. I
think we would do very very well on television. Okay, a show that
well, I think I think this would be a hit. I really do.
Oh okay, yeah, Well, that nobody ever went broke underestimating the
taste of the American public, That's what I'm saying. How did you know
it was in bad taste? I had a feeling it might have been a
bad taste. I don't know, but Danny, you know it's a good
taste. Woodcliffe Hotel and Spots. Oh, I could taste the wine now,
Bill. You can get winter holiday packages there. Now here's the deal.

planning. Whereas my wife I already knows he's gonna be in the super Bowl
in Tebruary, but my family is the opposite. We're not good planning.
My mother gave me all this stuff, and I'm like, that's cool,
that's nice that thanks mom. I'm gonna I look forward to shampooing the rugs

Hey Bill, I was listening to you guys talk about the Taco Bell of
Christmas Party. Are you sure it was Taco Bell and not movies? Because
that sounds an awful lot like the offpine of Clerks Too by Kevin Smith,
except for they had a Donkey show later. And be sure to like and
subscribe to Bilified wherever you get your podcast. That says how good Clerks Too
was because I saw Clerks Too, and I don't remember it everything, so
other than the fact that went from black and white to color, that's the
only thing I remember about Clerks Too. There was this story that we did
last night about a woman who there was a holiday party last year and she
wound up suing because it was at Taco Bellaco Bell employee, and she was
invited. It sounds like it was at the restaurant to like a potluck dinner,
bring your own, bring your own dish. So I found this odd,
but maybe I'm wrong. She decided to bring guacamole to Taco Bell,
but whatever, it was a party. She said it was odd when she
got in there because the windows were all covered with like wrapping paper, and
the cameras and the lobby were covered, and she said the manager was serving
alcohol to people. Now, they don't say that there was anybody underage,
but maybe I don't know if this was Taco Bell. Let me take a
guess. Okay, the working age most states is sixteen, right, Yeah,
I don't know many older people who were working at a Taco Bell.
Is there the manager or a career cashier. Somebody found this woman and she
had as a baby in her Facebook profile. So Detective Hallick, the listener
jumped on that one. Oh good, And so she said that she had
around midnight stepped outside, uh for a moment that maybe to get some air
or whatever. Comes back in and there is her boss having sex with his
wife in front of everybody, and his wife is making out with some of
the female managers while the husband's banging them banging, banging her. Yeah,
so she goes, that's going on and I and and yeah, I mean
I would call the That's what I want to know. That would have really
been the tip of the ice. Yeah, dog was going crazy smelling that
smelling that burrito. God damn. I basically put that on a tee for
you. So well, no, hang on, hang on. Oh yeah,
there's more, there's more, she said, and then she was like
all upset. She's like, I gotta get the fuck out of here.
So she leaves and then she goes, oh, ship, I left my
volleyball. So she goes back in together her quack and uh she said people
were throwing up and and one and she goes, yeah, two people were
thrown up, and one of them threw up in the guacamulli ball. So
then she winds up complaining to like the franchisees and these people get fired,
and then she was getting threats and like her windows were broken, and then
they offered to change her shift, and more people who were still working there
were threatening her and stuff. Now my theory was, why why say anything?
You just leave, just leave yeah, does your job much time?
Hang on, Doug, last night did bring up a good point. As
a woman, you may feel very unsafe and you know what else is going
on? Now? This sounds to me like like the manager and his wife
were This was a recruitment party for swingership, is what I think. But
I don't know. I would never have thought about well, you know,
of course not, but so there you go. That's all. Oh okay,
that actually makes me think of something for the border. Don't forget your
Quackamulli bowl, Taco What is that suit? Now? God, that'll be
a hell of a promotion for for Taco bell the quackamuly bowl. Let's turn
a negative into a positive. I have a holiday theory just along those lines,
because I say this. If you walk into a party and you notice
that the windows have wrapping paper over them and the cameras are covered, I
would probably leave. Yeah, there's something something going on now I may stay
around just to see what kind of shit goes down, So I can tell
you guys, that would be it. But I also have this, you
know, Beatrice from second Shift, ma'am. The more Christmas lights outside the
house, the more problems inside the house. I say, the more Christmas
lights out look at the Griswolds, Yes, problems inside, Yes, there's
problems found them. Why because Clark couldn't let it go. I was writing
these down today. Every light on the outside of your house represents one thing
wrong with your life. That was my theory. I go, because I
drove by this house and it just looked like somebody just went out and just
fuck it through the lights everywhere. They weren't really put up in any order
at all. There was colors. They were all white, but some were
off white, some were fasted white, some of this white. And I
got, the more Christmas lights i's outside the house, the more problems inside
the house. And I go, every light outside of your house represents one
thing wrong with your life. And then I decided to take it one step
further because I did see something funny on Facebook where it's the it's all the
inflatables but the only So there's all these down inflatables and there's a Yoda with
a lightsaber inflatable with the characters hat on like he just kill them all.
I go, that's kind of creative. But then I thought, inflatables represent
ten things wrong every one inflatable ten things wrong with your life? Okay,
because if we're doing the math, you're too lazy to put up holiday light,
but feel pressure to put something up, so you get this awful fucking
inflatable and that's what you do. Yeah, okay, it makes sense.
It's my holiday theory. Yeah, because like my family, we were never
like people. We were never holiday decorations. My father goes, why draw
attention to yourself? Why draw attention to yourself? I remember nineteen ninety six.
I went to my first concert. It was Pearl Jam October one,
nineteen ninety six. It was the No Code tour. Right, So with
your ticket you got some stuff, including a sticker that said no Code.
It was like, look like the album only was right. I put that
in the in the window of my truck and my father goes, what do
you want to get shot? Like, what are you talking about it?
Never make yourself a target like that, you put a target in your head.
I go, Dad, it's a pearl tusticker. I don't care what
it's round and red, but like, okay, so I take it down.
So then the barket so then the bills are playing the cowboys like later
that year right, and the Buffalo News had signs that they put in every
paper saying stampede them cowboys. And I put that in my truck and my
fatherly goes some cowboy fan, CoP's gonna pull you over it, give you
a ticket for this. So I always like, just okay, you know
what, you're right, no signage, you stay under the radar. All
they saying, the more lights outside the house, the more problems inside.
Yeah, And for every light outside the house, it represents one thing wrong
with your life. That's what I'm saying. You got it inflatable outside of
your house, that's ten things wrong with your life for two reasons. One
your two laces to put up lights, and two you got pressure, pressure
to somewhat form. And then an inflatable represents that something's about to fall apart
in your life because inflatables blow away, and that was the thing. And
if they don't blow away, you sit around worrying that they will blow away.
So it's just really not worth it. And by the way, all
this worked for one freaking day, I mean crying loud and then and then
all of a sudden, then you're under pressure to take them down and put
them away, Yes, right, try putting these by the way, like
sometimes people don't do that until like the super Bowl, and then it's just
annoying. After a while, it's like, okay, well Danny uh in
honor of Norman Lear. Yeah, this new show passing away. Yeah,
I have a new show that I would like to present and I think would
be a big hit. It's this show right here. Remember the people's cart.
This is fark torch. Oh is it a fart or not? Was
this from your like days of Bill's training camp? You found some old no
no no, no, no, no, okay, I used to.
I did do this on the radio. It was not well received by some
people. But the idea is sometimes in news clips and things, we hear
something and we have to decide. We go to the far court and we
decide if the person has farted or not, as opposed to going number two
full out now or no, no sitting like at a news conference if someone's
talking or something, it's like a leather chat. You got it right,
That's happened to me on television once. What picture it? Rochester? Okay,
two thousand and seven. I'm working a Channel thirteen filling in for like
Darren Mark. I remember the morning guy. There was Stan Monroe. He
was the goofy guy, right that. Darren Mark was a guy. I
think he went out of Kansas City. He took his spot, and he
was a little he was less goofy, but he's still like the goofy morning
comedy guy, right or they thought. So they go, don't be funny.
I go, no problem, I got you take covered there. They
go, just go and like do these reports on location. So I go
to a place that they do yoga and all this other stuff, right,
but they want me to demonstrate, so they give me these they give me
these yoga pants, and they're showing me pilates and I'm sitting on this vinyl,
this vinyl like you'd sit at the doctor's off. Get up on the
stool, let's see what's the matter. So I go to like, dude,
a stretch in my pants, rub against the final seat and it makes
that sally like it was more like a rip thing. Normal. Holland is
back at the studio cracking up in my ear and I can't figure out why.
And I get back to the studio. What was so funny? She
goes, did you fart? I go no, oh, my gosh,
it was those yoga pants because guys aren't meant to wear those things. They
had. They had the yeah, because I was wearing jeans. But I
can't do all these stretches and jeans, so they made me put on these
yoga pants. So now like I look like, you know, like tinker
Bell right up there in these black yoga pits. I don't even remember.
It's gotta be on your thirteen website. It's from like, yeah, but
this is like two thousand and seven, this is years ago. But yeah,
Laura Mulholland is cracking up. Well, uh, there's a right now.
You and I are not big hockey guys, but now, thank god,
say Terrible. The twenty nine year old Russian goalie for the Lightning has
missed twenty games. He had he underwent back surgery and some member and he's
back and this is his tenth season, and I mean, this guy is
really good. He won the uh the Vizina Trophy trophy, thank you first,
right, because I have no idea I know that I know the con
smythe trophy. Yeah, he won that in twenty nineteen. That's awarded to
the Stanley Cup playoffs MVP. Yeah, he was like the Norman Lear of
Canada, but this guy, uh he was it's the what is it,
the trophy for the best goaltender. You got the best goalie. So he
was talking to the press after the game last night. Your mind in the
last forty hours from the end of the game on Saturday to the start of
this one, yeah, I mean, obviously it wasn't great shieling last game,
but somebody in the press farted. Yeah, but go back to go
back to the beginning, the very beginning. I think you hear it too,
your mind seeing that's the microphone. Okay, I've been in the last
forty hours from the end of the game on Saturday to the start of this
one. I'm gonna say the first go was the mic the second one was
an actual number. To go back to the part toward, I'm saying number
one, Mike trouble, number two actual fart. Yeah, I agree.
In the last forty hours, from the end of the game on Saturday to
the start of this one. Yeah, I mean, obviously it wasn't great
feeling the last game, but now they all started laughing and the kids head
drops like he can't even continue talking, So I don't know he farted the
question. Yeah, so just yeah, I mean I was just stick fall
of the locker. I mean that had some reverber. Yeah it did.
That was pretty good. Now, so we're saying first one, yes,
not a part, second one and one fart? Yeah, John Kerrey at
a climate change summit. Oh of course, just the other day, I
must say, yes, just for the just side of principle, let's take
a Losk stretch. More coal fired power plants permitted anywhere in the world.
I find myself getting more and more militant because I do not understand how adults
who are in position of responsibility can be avoiding responsibility for taking away those things
that are killing people on a daily basis. And the reality is that the
climate crisis and the health crisis are one and the same. Now I think
that was John Kerrey. Oh yeah, I believe John carry seen carry those
things that are killing people on a daily basis. Oh yeah, yeah,
yeah, it's a fart. Yeah, I think carry far. He looks
like one of the old guys from the Muppets show you seen him lately,
Like he's in so much boatox you can't tell where it starts and his head
stops. I mean, smart guy, I understand you feel like you're doing
the right thing. All these guys stopped like. They run for president and
they can't get elected, so then they go become climate activists. But they
don't say any of this stuff. Wow, or at least Al Gore and
John Carrey didn't say this while they were running. I thought Carry did.
No, he may have. Gore didn't, though I thought he did.
Bill Maher used to kill Gory goes why do these guys like wait till after
they can't get elected anymore. I can't. I can't answer that because that's
the rallying cry, that's you know. But yeah, I think he was
definitely uh yeah, he was passing air. Yeah, he's on a daily
basis and the reality yeah yeah, yeah, Okay, you're saying, there's
a little pause there, let's go back. Yeah, let's just hear if
we hear a little bit of pause, or coal fired power plants permitted anywhere
in the world. I find myself getting more and more militant because I do
not understand get worked out pressure till and can be avoiding responsibility for taking away
those things that are killing people on a daily basis, and wow, it
says like killing people on a daily basin. Wow, well okay, well
okay, that's like the perfect storm. You remember his wife, right,
I don't know, she's still a lives gotta be Teresa Hines carry. Yeah,
okay, so Teresa, the Hines family. Right, when you squirt
ketchup out of a bottle makes a fart sound, right, Yeah, there's
a whole SNL piece. So yeah, you farted. They did all SNL
at Thanksgiving. No I didn't. It was the ketchup bottle. Yeah,
no ketchup bottle this time, just carry. I think they made it the
kleef bottle or something after that. I don't remember. Something horrible. But
here the reality is that the climate crisis and the health crisis are one and
the same, those things that are killing people on a daily basis. Like
sometimes like you can go right, you can dry right, right, you
know, it's almost like all that. It's like his body just went on
a daily basis, air left both ends's getting worked up. Oh yeah,
yeah, I think on a daily basis. And the reality is that and
then yeah and uh oh vod all right, there you go. There were
Biden he might just plowed through. So that idea. Yeah, we debate
on TV did this person fard or not? Youuro When Jim tom Sula was
coach of the forty nine ers, he was between Harbaugh and Chip Kelly,
and then of course Chip Kelly had let go for Kyle Shanahan and he's at
a press couch. So this guy like he was just he was hired basically
because he would do Jed York the owner's bidding, and they couldn't find anybody
to take the job to want to work for well, he was like an
assistant assistant coach, and they promoted him a head coach and at a press
conference he'd like loudly let one rint as if he liked any less credibility,
and that one pretty much like nailed it for him. He set him packing.
But yeah, all right, we uh, well, we'll take a
moment. Let me let me ask you this, Daniel, has have you
ever felt like your significant other and maybe not your current administration, but at
some point was setting you up? Oh, I expect that kind of reaction
coming out in the book. It's going gaslighting. How to avoid it?

We've vilified a voicemail anytime. I'm a Victor Chrysler Dodge jeep ramline at
five eight five two o six eighty eight sixty six. Hey Billy, it's
Rick from San Diego. Congratulations in your one year and be sure to like
and subscribe to Bilified wherever you get your podcast. I like hearing from Rick
from San Diego. Interesting, dude. I think our initiation to each other.
He wanted to come and kick my ask because I said something I think
I call him. I don't know what I mean. I just having fun
in it. He took it the wrong way. I'm glad he's on our
side. Now, that's all I think too. I saw something that I
thought was a little weird, a little weird on Rochester Reddit. I found
this strange another video of a cop chasing down a guy. A lot of
those lately. No, Okay, this is not It says it's cold outside
in Rochester. I want to make a recreational fire, to make some s'mores
and just have a good time during the sunset. Okay, this is what
it says. All right, so I go. You can do that well
in your backyard, right, that's not what this person wants to do.
To do it, not like a creepy person. It's legal to create a
fire outside in Rochester, New York, so long as the rules are followed.
And then they put up the City of Rochester's rules. Where's a good
place to start a recreational fire? How about your backyard? Do you not
own any property? If you don't, then guess what. Don't do it.
I considered creating a fire within a fire pit on Duran Eastman Beach,
but there's other threat indicates that it's dubiously legal to do so, maybe illegals.
What do you want? Despite how people do it anyway, and then
he put that out there, so like, why are you even putting this
out? Why do you just go do it? And finds out? Don't
we want to go have some fun. We'll get some hot chocolate, make
s'mores, and then I'm gonna take you and RAPI it. I don't know.
I don't know. It was a weird thing to me because I thought,
yes, I get the idea of oh, they do them. We
have a rock holiday village here, right, you go down and you can
get an igloo, and I think they have fire pits and things for people.
I don't know. I think it would be weird, like if we
went to the beach and had a fire. Yeah, a little creepy,
h just a bunch of I don't know. Should we do it? Should
we try it? Put a shout out there, Hey, come join us.
Yeah, we're gonna have a fire at the beach. Sin bring your
own log in, your own smores. I mean, oh gosh, all
right, so this guy must be really low. I don't know. I
found it. Like I said, I don't know if it's a guy or
a woman. I have no idea. I don't know. It could be
a woman. I Suppose if a woman said the only sounds like like a
cue idea for the woman's he goes, hey, I was just thinking,
I'm new to Rochester. Let's get a bunch of people together. No,
a woman would never do that. It's always a guy. Some woman's not
gonna do that. Maybe even if she is new to Rochester. That's like
the last thing she's gonna want to do. You don't think she's gonna want
to go make a fire on the beach. I find strangers. There's a
lot of ways you can find strangers that are safer than building a fire on
the beach in Rochester to the ark where the crime is at at all time
high. All right, there's a TikTok trend and it is not the how
to steal a kiya Oh great. It's called the name one Woman challenge.
Are you familiar with this? Now? Name one woman challenge? Is it
very? Very simple? A woman asks so boo or bath okay, would
say to you name one woman, like famous person or no oh. So.
Usually guys will pause because they don't get it at first, and so
the question has to be repeated, name one woman. Yeah, So if
Beth said to you name one woman. What would you what would you say?
Ants would always be your mom, your mom? Okay, all right,
so here's here's somebody on the tic tac trend from televisions, not from
television city in my bad excuse me, great place. Name one woman.
That's the question. Hey, I do have a question for you. Name
one woman, Name one woman, Name a woman. Anne Halfway? Okay,
do you get it? She's so you would fail this, Okay,
you would fail. She starts laughing, and it's probably like, what is
the crush on Anne Hathaway? Okay, maybe maybe he's like, no,
I do not so, but she's laughing. But so then he'll start laughing.
Look at your face. You're laughing. Look at this guy. Now,
listen to this guy. Name one woman. That's the question, Alex
Alex is her name? How stupid do you think I am? The idea
is Willy, say your name, name one woman. The answer should be
bath in your world? Yeah, ok, boo, but boo right,
But you would say, but if you said your mom would detail the whole
thing, that would be the best, that would be the greatest one ever.
You would go fucking viral. Do it tonight? Okay? But yeah,
I mean, so, so is the idea to gaslight you, I
don't know, probably to start a fucking fight, right, who knows.
Yeah, I've had multi things set up like that. Oh yeah, yeah,
Like what give me an example, because I can't think of what.
My first wife would hide money in certain places in the house and I would
never do that, and then come over to me and say, hey,
I had X amount of dollars in here, and now I'll have why amount
of dollars? Did you take any money from this? And I'm like,
I didn't even know you put money in there? Well, how did you
not know that? You know that I do that? You would just and
I'd be like, what, like the kind of like you smiling, like
what suc see you're laughing, you're lying, you know what? Or my
ex wife would say and this is I thought I thought this was a form
of projection. Would you ever cheat on me? I'm like no. At
one point igo when because we were always, you know, together, and
she goes, she goes, you cheat on me, wouldn't she? I'm
like no, Yeah, you're laughing. She's laughing along. I'm like no,
I why when I do that like this, I'm laughing at the silliness
of the question. She thinks that the laughter she's trying to set me up
as the laughter is an admission of guilt that I would do something like that.
She lived to start fights. She wanted an excuse to get out of
the marriage. You would just randomly start fights all the time. There's another
woman I dated. You may know, God, you may know her history.
I've never done drugs. I've never done illegal drugs in my life.
Okay, never not even smoked a cigarette. I said that it would be
a lie, so I can't, and she knew how much. I My
sister asked it for my dad. I think sometime we should talk about all
the illegal drugs that we did because my father wanted to try gummy No really
yeah, very badly, and you're an adult, go ahead, no,
But he wanted to do it with like other people, some stuff with my
dad. So everybody's like, well, you know, and my sister's like,
we should talk about what illegal drugs, and I want. I wouldn't
fucking open my mouth because I'm like, this is this is like I didn't
do that, you did what? Right? Of course it's a set up
for something else. I'm so my so. This girlfriend at the time goes,
uh it was park afest time town. Yeah, it's a lot of
party in a lot of parties. Hey, uh, I got something I
gotta tell you. Oh okay, I'm a man. I did cocaine tonight.
Oh are you mad? I go, why would you do cocaine?
I go, letting bias died of one store to cocaine, And so then
she's like, I did you be mad? That's why I don't want to
tell you anything. It's why I don't tell you anything. Ever, what
don't you tell me? I'm falling into the trap. Yeah. Yeah,
she's setting you up to get to an argument, to start a fight,
to find some excuse to No. Maybe it's your it's your thing. You're
gonna be up all night, so let's go b like animals. I don't
know, it's like who Yeah, yeah I was. I was set up
quite often with soup and stuff like that. Did you say to her did
you do it off hooker's ass? Or did you actually do it off somebody's
table? Or I didn't get that. I was just blown away because that
was out of character. Did you do it through? Uh? You roll
up a dollar bill? Do you use a strawgy just you know what I
do. If I were with it, I should have asked those questions.
Well, you always have to hear here. I was in my twenties and
I didn't know how to respond to that, being a non drug user myself.
Yes, but you've seen movies, yeah, right, you're listen to
every piece of money. I don't know about recently since they're printing so much
of it, but before like twenty twenty, when they stopped printing money at
a record rate, they said, like every dollar bill meaning one hundred or
our dollar bill has cocaine residue on it somewhere. I don't know how if
I believe that, but I mean that's like because maybe so much of that,
you know, maybe but get snorted. I think, like to this
end right where sometimes you just step right into it. This is I hope,
tongue in cheek for people like the guy who said Anne Hathaway. Clearly
just you said name a woman, he's not looking. He's not thinking about
Anne Hathaway at that moment, you know what I mean, right, So
it's not that he's not picturing Anne Hathaway. Well maybe it is just mean
you I can't name what Stephanie id why God, that's diverse. Reminds me
when Larry David on they're all sitting around and they go, who would you
like among you know, anybody in this room? Who would you like to
have sex with? And everybody's going on, oh, my wife, my
wife, And Larry goes, yeah, they asked him, and he's you
know, he's wow. But it's like a big you know. So the
thing is like, there's always you gotta just sort of see it. So
I I but I think going back to your scenario, Uh, yes,
when someone asks you, are you mad, Well, yeah, I'm not
mad, I'm disappointed or I thought I thought higher of you would be a
good answer. But when we're young, like all of a sudden, we're
put on the spot, our emotions take over the experience. No, and
I always go, if you can just step back, I know. I
just think in every situation, I even think in political conversations, you know,
in political conversations, I think people get so heated because, like you
know, I overheard a conversation somebody's going, uh, if we go back
to those Trump gas prices, you know, that would be good. And
I want to go well, don't forget New York States suspended the gas tax
that really lowered it for a long time, that the gas tax here was
suspended, So don't let's you know, but it wasn't just that, and
it's not something you know, there's other factors at play here that are out
of the control of you know. It's it's economic, it's worldwide, it's
you know all this. But so sometimes I think people just emotion. Emotion
right away, emotion irrational mind, guy's the rational. You gotta flip it.
Emotion takes pret that's all. So it takes a lot of work.
But when you're when it's your significant other and there's a lot of emotion there.
There's this one girl I dated right when Now I'm trying to think,
Man, I don't know that I've ever had anything like that where I was
set up. I don't believe I was ever set up. So you know
Facebook, you see everybody, you see everybody's Facebook, you see who at
his friends. Right, So if there was a girl, her name was
Nicki, and she worked on the zone. I never really met her,
oh right, I didn't meet her until my wedding, my first wedding.
She was actually my ex brother in law's uh date to this wig and so
this. But this is like two years prior, three years prior. I
wasn't even with my ex wife at the time, and I'm dating this girl
and she's the one who like data Eddie Murphy and she calls me up.
She goes, I talk to you, like, yeah, what's up?
Who's nicky? Go hey, Nikki, you're so fine. She gives me
her name and like, oh yeah, she's a DJ on the zone.
Do you know her? I go, well, no, we're all kind
of radio people are all connected. We Why would you friend her? I
go, I didn't. She friended me. Well, why would you accept
a friend request? I go, because that's kind of what I do.
I accept everyone's friend requests. Well, you should be more selective. She
got all and then she goes, she goes, well, I guess we're
both a little punchy today. I'm like, no, I'm not being punchy,
are you? What are you saying? I'd be a punch And now
that's what kicked it over. And that's what you told me the next day,
Danny, run run you met the girl, You're like, run,
not walk? Run? I did? Oh yeah, I don't remember.
Oh yeah, good looking older than yeah? About your age? About my
age? Yeah? What are you dating somebody that old? For? Well?
Issues? Attractive? God, you're beautiful. You count the rings around
our area to find a home? I never we never got that far?
What never got that fuse? I vaguely remember. Yeah, but there was
a touch of cray. Yeah, yeah, there's a touch cray can smell.
Don't walk run right, I can see next thing. I know,
I'm meeting my ex wife. All right. Here's some people like drama and
things. Oh they invented. Yeah, I'm not a big fan of that
stuff. I don't understand it. Well, I would just say this,
I preach on this podcast in other places in the idea that whether you believe
in God or whatever, I would say that there's got to be some sort
of higher intelligence because you woke up this morning and I probably think you didn't
think about the planet spinning, staying in orbit, the moon being there,
sun rising, all that shit that goes one. But every day this stuff
goes on and you don't think about it. Well, there's some kind of
greater something at work here. Okay, so that aside, but I would
say that you have an inner. Some people call it your inner being,
your soul, whatever, your directive, your God voice. It's telling you
about things and people and stuff like that. I just can sort of.
I see people, and I just act according to how I feel because I
think that's my guidance system. Your feelings are your guidance system. If you
believe in God, well then they're God send. If you don't believe in
God, then or higher until whatever. But I do believe that there's that.
So when I see people, then I told you about a person.
Yeah, you're pretty good about that. Yeah, yeah, But think I
always was. I mean I didn't always act on it. I would know.
I would be like, boy, well I knew it was coming.
Yeah you did. You knew and you went anyway, and okay, all
right, but that was your true Well, the reason why you said this
is because I had dated a girl previously who I really liked and I thought
really liked me for a while, and she she worked with us before I
started dating, and then she went onto another company, and then after we
broke up, you said you and time were like, yeah, yeah,
I wanted to tell you it was a bad idea, but you look so
happy. So we didn't want to spoil your fun. But yeah, we're
glad you We're glad this kind of ended. Really, I mean, dan
is't for the best. Like you didn't say anything, no, so then
you over correct the next time. Would tell me about this other Yeah,
dandy, I run don't want because I saw it. Yeah I know,
but I mean we saw it before, but you didn't say anything. Which
fine. I mean, it's like then it was too late. You're happy.
What do I know? Why am I gonna go? Hey man,
you go around this sun a few times and then it's over. Yeah,
take the ride, enjoy whatever you got. I just see certain people and
I go, that's not a ride I want to get involved in. Yeah,
I don't. It doesn't it somehow. I'm not saying it doesn't end
well, but it gets complicated. I can see it. And then you
know, there's somebody who I told you about already. Yeah, right,
you know yeah, uh huh. He thinks I'm annoying. No, I
don't think you're annoying. I don't. But yeah, that's about it.
That's all I can. That's all. That's that's all I'm gonna say.
Today, Time magazine revealed their Person of the Year. I think I have
a pretty good idea who this is? You do yeah, okay, yeah,
I have a pretty good idea. Who is now? This is?
This is actually just a person. Sometimes it's a group. Sometimes it's a
cause, a different thing. Remember when it was you, I think two
thousand and six or something. Time magazine they had a mirror basically on the
cover and who is the Times person? It's you? It's you. I
put that on my resume. Who do you think it is? I think,
well, I think I might ruin it if somebody's listening doesn't know idea
everywhere today the woman who is dating Travis Kelcey from the Kansas City Chiefs,
who's in his Taylor Swift? That is exactly who it is. Now.
So this morning I was up early. I had some stuff going on,
and I was ready. I don't know, that doesn't matter rambling. I
turn on the Today Show and they have the Time magazine and they're going to
reveal it. And they have someone from Time there and they said, we
start debating at the end of summer, going around who's going to be the
Time Person of the Year. And they say Taylor Swift And they show all
the covers of stuff, and they didn't push back hard the Today Show,
but they said, there's a lot of stuff happening in the world, and
there's a lot of things going on. Why why Taylor Swift? And I
thought the answer was pretty fucking good. Actually, the guy goes, yeah,
there is a ton of stuff happening. You're absolutely right, But this
is somebody who just is positive and the positivity that this person does, and
I I started to think about it, and I go, yeah, it
kind of makes sense. Whether you like her music or don't like her music.
She's not one that you almost have to worry about with your kids.
I guess my guys are old right, and they're not girls. You would
call what she does devil music. And I look, I know Taylor Swift.
I'm a different tailor, Swift. Don't you like her? Great?
I don't care. I bothered me. She's in rarefied air. You've got.
She's like a Madonna category. Yeah, Elvis Presley, Madonna, Michael
Jackson. I absolutely she may have passed Lady Gaga. I think Lady Gaga
was up there for a while. Some people say that she's now. I
remember my neighbor across the street, big into music and stuff, couldn't stand
like the songs she wrote on. But that was almost fifteen years ago.
Now we're talking a career that has gone seventeen years. She was a kid.
People are equating her songwriting to Bob Dylan, Joni Mitchell. Yeah,
because she started on herself and she has over a billion dollars. And I
would say that being a woman in the entertainment business and being able to just
hold your own. And I'll tell you the one thing that she did,
like you got a handed to her. Scooter Braun came in and bought her
catalog and she didn't want Scooter Braun to have it. And all that means
for anybody because she went and re recorded all the albums, right, and
everybody's like, well, oh yeah, so now she owns it. No,
Scooter still owns that. Scooter still owns that and the original stuff.
Yeah, but she re recorded it. Here's the difference. If a movie
comes and says we want to license a Taylor Swift song, Scooter would get
the money right now, they can she has re recorded the song. She
owns it. If they want to, they can say, Taylor, we
want this song and she gets the money, which should be the case for
the artists who wrote the song originally anyway. So that's all she did.
She basically made us a brilliant took a lot of time and a lot of
energy, got a lot of money. That's hard. That is so hard
to do. Yeah, a lot of money. You have to go back
and recreate the magic. Yet in the studio originally bands, So glad you're
saying that I love the band ever clear right? They re recorded all their
hits. They all suck, like art Alex Zakas can't even sing anymore.
And it's like it's like when David Lee Roth Whober he went in the studio
for a couple of hours and re record all his Van Halen hits. Yes,
because you watched the like sucks, they're terrible karaoke machine. She didn't.
She went back. She got musicians the studio times, the studio type.
That's a pain that you know what, And it cost a lot of
money, and you've got to go to where the microphones are the same.
Look many years ago there was and I remember the guy who came in the
break room. He owned the recording studio. Yeah, boyd McCoy, Boyd
McCoy, he died a few years ago. I am so glad you remember
that. I'm telling stories we had. I loved Boyd McCoy's like, I
gotta show guys. Yeah, he kept telling us stories, right, No,
tell us boy So, Boyd had a studio that had some like tubular
board and certain microphones. And when they recorded, Uh, who was one
of the Mall singers? Tiff was Tiffany or Debbie Gibson? Debbie Gibson electric
youth, Yes, Debbie Gibson. And they needed to fix something on the
album, but they needed a studio that would have exactly and she was on
the road exactly the microphone and the stuff and no, but he had it,
Boyd McCoy had it in Rochester, New York, and she came here
and did the song. The only reason I tell that story is to Danny's
point of how hard this is. You're looking for all the same equipment,
so you can mock Taylor Swift and say, oh this, she shouldn't be
Times Person of the Year. Okay, I'll ask you this, how many
conversations you had this year that may have involved in some capacity taps work or
somewhere Taylor Swift. How many times were you scrolling on social media and there
was Taylor Swift, Taylor Swift in the NFL and Kelsey. Her answer to
that stuff is even great. She goes, Look, we're just two people
supporting each other in their careers. Yeah, he went to my concert,
said she just seems like a sweet, genuine I mean, I know there
was all this stuff about songs she wrote and this one Taylor Swift, right,
so breakup. Maybe she was a teenager, she was a teenager young
twenties about this. We just talked about Danny having a girl come up to
him in his twenties and go I just did cocaine and Dan and He's like,
right, you step right into it your emotions. Yeah, okay,
a girl can't write us. I'm just saying, and I know I'm defending
Taylor Swift and I don't need to, but because I thought, sure,
are there other things in the world that certainly could be more important than Taylor
Swift. Yes, But is Taylor Swift, by the way, one of
the only individual people in the past fifty years under the age of fifty.
I think there's only been four times person under the age of fifty. She's
thirty three years old. We're a tillionth Thunberg become a Times Person of the
Year once. I don't know. She may have, she may we've done
that one. We're all supposed to be frozen. Bro, We're supposed to
be frozen and Knight I can't or heated. I don't know. All right,
here would be my thing with that. I don't know what's happening with
the planet. I like to think the planet will take care of itself.
I can tell you what's going to happen. It's in the Bible. Bill,
Well, Jesus is coming back. Everything's going to be just fine.
Oh, go ahead your thought. But my theory would be like the planet
takes care of itself. Yeah. Now, I do remember somebody saying about
thirty years ago, at some point, Rochester's gonna have more of the climate
of Atlanta. Over the years, we've had less snow. Does that mean
it's gonna continue? I don't know. Do you see anybody making movies outside
with a big giant beach? I don't think so. No, But do
you say what you're saying? And we've had more mild winters, winter has
seemed to started later the heavy winter. Okay, but we've got snow today
with delightful. Yeahs impactful, but happened right, snow not that anyway,
rapids snowing out. Yeah. But I'll say this about Taylor Swift, I
mean and the errors tour about I'm sorry, the errors tour all her career.
That's impressive. And it was three hours. And she takes care of
her employees, yes, right, what did she do? She paid for
all her health insurances right, I don't know about that, and she also
should have and they know she paid the truckers. I think one hundred grand.
They were salary. But the thing is like, think about Madonna.
When you think about Madonna, right, okay, what's the first thing you
think over her course of her career. What was Madonna's big selling point?
It was sex? Yeah, right, she wrote a book called sex and
every movie she was in it was evolving like sex. And that was her
big push, that was pushing the envelope in the adies view. But that
was later Vida, Yeah, you're right, Later on Michael, she was
like like like truth or dare that's like her whole thing. I mean,
she was married to Sean Penn, at one point, which I can't imagine
what that relationship was like. But the point is, though, is that
I like Sean. I'm not saying he's a bad but he's just ant.
He's like a Soudo intellectual. And she's just kind of like, you know,
Madonna, she thinks she is. But the point is, though,
is that like Madonna? You know. But but the thing is, though,
is that Madonna, like Madonna's a write over song. She it looks
like she is. Other people write them and she buys them and calls them
their own. Taylor Swift has written every song by her since she was fifteen
years old. She hasn't had to sell sex she has. She's not in
the drugs that I'm aware of. She's not. She's never in brold in
any controversy. She's done it the right way. But everybody's like sick of
her because familiarity breeds could tempt And so I was like, I don't have
a problem with this person, I told either, and I don't have a
problem with Time picking her as the Person of the Year because when we look
at everything else would have been controversial in some way, you know, controversial
in some way. We look at what's happening in Israel with the moss and
all that stuff. We look at what's happening on college campuses with they're not
showing certain there's a sentiment of anti Semitism. I don't know how valid or
not. They were showing some stuff on there, and I think the schools
are starting to feel pressure from the owners and things to hey, we're gonna
you know, the presidence of these schools. And the only thing I would
say is this on this one, but they have to commit genocide to break
any rules. That was what the presidents were saying, like, you could
speak about genocide all you want, but yes, can't unless you commit it.
We can't do anything. Well. The problem is, though the freedom
of speech stuff, Yes, that's my biggest things. We are to err
on the side of being too cautious and going to come back on the other
end. On the other end, we losed what our democracy is about.
And I don't like any of this talk either, I I but just because
I don't like it doesn't mean they don't have a right to do it.
And we're an intellectual institution. We've got to walk a fine line here,
guys. And that's the part that I agree with it, but I think
we've we've already we've already ruined that, and now they want to can't you
know what I'm saying, because like I mean, how many And I'm not
a big Ben Shapiro guy, but Ben Shapiro has been banned from certain colleges
because he's a conservative. That's the same thing. That's the same. That's
That's what I'm saying. But you know, like, you're okay, So
we'll protect freedom of speech when we like it. Now here's but here would
be the other and we disagree, we won't. Well, here's the other
part that they You could always make the argument on the other side as to
why we're a private institution. We have standards by which we accept our students,
we have standards by which we do this stuff. So we don't,
you know, this is against our standard, Like you know, whether it
be something as simple as it's a dry camp, it's and you're caught drinking.
We wouldn't want certain right, right, So I think they could push
back with that. I just worry about what happens to free speech in our
country when we start succumbing to certain pressures. I'm not saying that anybody should
like it. That's not it's not it. It's about free speech, because
we lose that, and we really lose what is one of the great things
about our country. And then you open the door for everything. We're screwed
because like now they could regulate anything, all this shit could really become.
And when you look at Taylor Swift, to your point, you're like,
yeah, I have no problem with her. You're you're a whatever age guy.
You're not gonna be a You're not a Swiftie. But if you had
a little girl who was into Taylor Swift, I don't know your mind,
you know, I'll say this sixty minutes from here. There's a city called
Buffalo, right, and what's the most important thing to the people of Buffalo
overall? What's the most important for the Buffalo Bill The Buffalo Bills, I
believe. Now, the Buffalo Bills play a certain team this week. You
want to tell me who that is, The Kansas City Chiefs, and they're
tight end is named Travis Kelson, who is dating Taylor Swift. Now,
there was somebody who actually or there was a movement in Buffalo to ban all
Taylor Swifts and the radio station said, that's a cute idea. Sorry,
no, we're not doing it. That's how powerful Taylor Swift is. But
that's cute. Yeah, it's Taylor ago. Yeah it makes sense. They
still won't play bon Jovi before what he tried to pull ten years ago.
All right, we'll take a moment. Uh. Danny's wife is a teacher,
Yes she is. I saw an article today that I thought was very
interesting and I maybe you could add some perspective. Maybe we have to get
Boo on the line. I don't know, all right, but we will.
We'll find out and do that next. But first, Iron Smoke Distillery

this is a great like I never had little girls. I'm learning as I
see. I don't even know if my nieces are experiencing some of this or
not. But my niece is a huge swifty No I'm not saying it will
be a mine too, But not so much the swifty stuff, but the
bully. And I hear that girls are very cruel to each other and the
idea that to just shake it off not a bad message, you know.
And this is certainly autobiographical for her, if nothing else. Right. So
my wife asked me an interesting question, and she goes, would you ever
go back to high school? If you could? And I said, well
depends. She goes, what do you mean I go? Can I take
back everything I know now and the people I know now. She goes,
that's a great question. I go because if the answer is no, then
no, I want to be right where I'm at. Think about it.
You can't bring your nieces and nephews and your brother, your sons and your
wife, and you can't do you have to go back, and it's like
starting over. Yah, it's starting over at the level you were back then.
I would not want to go back because I'd be this. I make
the same mistakes, so why haven't bother So I can only imagine what they're
going through at this age. Yeah, so I just I My only point
for playing that was like, it's one of her bigger hits, and it's
one that I think that a lot of people could o. Our songs are
incredibly catchy too, even if you don't know who she was. Yeah,
like, oh, that's a Taylor Swift SONGA that plays over and over here
and I'll write your name. I mean, like, I didn't know that
was Taylor Swift, but it's so catchy. You know. I did see
something today that's sports betting. So I was watching this thing on YouTube and
this woman came on. She's referred to. Her name is Meredith Whitney,
as the Oracle of Wall Street, and she's called that for predicting the financial
crisis of two thousand and eight, which I think a lot of people were
predicted, or a few people. Well, I mean, yeah, I
get a whole movie. I have a cousin who was pretty high up in
the M M and B bank for one of the banks and no, no,
NB and a oh okay, and they did a lot of the credit
cards and the loaning and stuff. And he's like like, man, I'm
getting out because they're they're Peyton Golden thirds here. Well, let me ask
you a question. Your brother's an economic forecast. Yeah, is he saying
anything about what's going to happen? No, he doesn't think this is I
you know what. Let me not put words in his mouth. No,
we have not talked about it. Okay, I like to interview him.
I like to talk about Okay, Well put my wins from right. But
this woman says that sports betting is the reason that younger men are single,
not buying homes, and not having sex. I believe it now thirty personally
not majority, but that's a big chunk talking about her ten dudes not have
have not had sex in their twenties, have not had sex in the last
year. Yeah, I could see that. Yeah, young men who have
grown up with gaming are used to doing everything on their phone, and now
they can do all sorts of betting on their phone. They can do real
time parlays on their phone. You have young men who don't want to date
and young women who are spending their time with Instagram moments. At Taylor Swiss
concerts she's in, I didn't even see that far. She said seventy four
percent of the housing stock is owned by people over fifty and guesses that eventually
those homeowners are going to want to sell and that there will be no buyers.
I think. I think there will be buyers, but they're gonna be
buyers that you do not want buying the property. That's another story for another
time, like black Rock and all those companies. But I will say this,
I mean I would love to, Like I've never owned a home,
I would love to. Down the road. Now, it's not the time
to buy necessarily in some cases. But yeah, I could see that because
it's easy. I know sports, so everybody here and here's the thing about
betting, now it's so easy. Yeah, a dollar here, a dollar
there, because you can win a lot of money. And everybody thinks they
know what they're doing. Surely I know it's I got it under control.
Foody, who is now leading by two points in our picks. By the
way, he is leading by two points, I'm dan now, Jimmy Kames,
I had lost in the final minute this year. I'm like the buffalo
bills of our pickums. So food he was out in Vegas, uh,
And I said, did you do any gambling or anything? And he said,
yeah, I did some sports betting. But he goes, I did
like ten bucks. Yeah, And I said, it's too bad. If
you could just late. You really got a hunch, you know, And
didn't you have like parlays that stretched over a couple of days or something.
I want a good chunk of change you did. Monday night when Jamar Chase
scored, my wife goes, I haven't seen you this happy in days.
And he plays for the Bengals. I go, you understand how much money
I just would. Don't worry. I'll take care of you, buddy.
Well, so when it comes to sports betting, I did not see h
are we betting on von Miller. Now, I thought my bet was,
like, nothing was really gonna happen with this. Remember we did the whole
breakdown. Yeah, we had the story from the Dallas. I said they
should be offending, but I didn't think anything was going to happen because it's
so complicated. Girlfriend that night tell recant talk understanding, even though I was
keeping him choking me on my phone. Now I thought would have been had
an exam. So I have not paid attention to anything since then. Okay,
so it was basically over. But it was a bye week. Yes,
every so everybody's back to practice today, right, Yes, So here's
what happens. I'm curious. There's this usually like that. There's an old
expression of football coaches are paid to win football games. So anybody who's calling
on Sean McDermott to suspend von Miller, it's not It's never gonna happen because
he's the head coach. He's trying to win games. But he's the guy
in charge in Buffalo. So if so, if he wanted him suspended,
he'd be suspended. So what do they do. They trot out the general
manager, Brandon Bean. Now Brandon Bean since the trade deadline. All he's
responsible for now is getting ready for next year's free agent crop and the draft.
He's not even worried about this year unless like a street free agent comes
on he thinks he could sign him. That's it. Okay. So,
but the perception is that Bean is the boss of mcderal, which is not
true. Mcdermotson charge. But they trot Bean out to say, and I'll
read it just so I don't have you make any mistakes. They're talking about
von Miller and asking about him. He didn't practice today. It was a
veteran rest day, mind you. They just had a freaking week off.
Okay, it's a veteran rest. Okay, so he has a veteran It
was planned as usual. Vaughn's on a typical game schedule, and you know
this will replicate his game week last year before any legal trouble happened. But
how do we know, because the police didn't show up until after the incident.
They took her statement. Yeah, he was not there. We know
he started to tape it. That's sort of your only defense and all that.
She also and then the police said there were marks on her neck and
different things. Okay, but we have no way of really proving it.
Now, do I think something happened? Yeah? Oh yeah. Is there
a pattern behavior with it? Yeah? Oh yeah. That's why I'm sitting
there going, Okay, well, here's what are they gonna do. Here's
what being said. I said they probably couldn't do anything. I don't think
they can. Now here's what Here's what Brandon Bean said. Though, if
any of this were true, it will be out of character for the person
we know. They've only known him for eighteen months. Also, by the
way, uh, he's been accused of something like this twice already before him.
Well it's not a character. Then you're not doing your due diligence,
dude. But his guy's a sacrificial lamb. Really, they trotted him out
there to look like, trot him out there just to you know, ask
ask that coach. Well, we can't ask him because so we deflected to
Brandon be this is pr one on one in the NFL. Deflect it to
the general manager who that goes on and says he can't do anything about it.
It's everywhere, it is everywhere. It's like, this is the NFL.
We told you this was gonna happen. She's gonna recant her statement,
which she did, and now so nothing's gonna come with this. And he
said, we're going to let the NFL, you know, do its investigation.
Here's the investigat what they can't invest what can't be investigating. That's the
point though, instead of like say, hey, look, we're letting the
NFL handle it's that simple. We've said this, he doesn't have to do
a press conference. Just the fact you did a press conference kind of like
not the mission of kill. But it's almost like you're putting yourself out there
for ridicule instead of say, hey, look we released a statement. That's
it was he gonna play this week. Yeah, he's gonna play because he
hasn't been arrested, he hasn't been charged with anything. We're gonna let the
NFL do the investigations what we've always done. Here's the thing. I think
Bills fans want him prospend. It wanted suspended because he's not playing. Well,
that's what I think. Now they're just gonna like it's funny if he
were good. Now you know what, wait, we got we all have
to play out three sacks and force fumble and you know what man, that's
the best. That's what are we doing. It's this flexible morality. And
I said, look, I wish the Buffalo Bills would suspend him because this
is the third Let's say he does have a game like that. Von Miller
has a game against Kansas City. He sacks Mahomes three times and all that.
Oh, yes, the game winning play. In other words, Mahomes
about there, like yeah, score of game winning drive. So in the
in the postgame interview, they bring out Von do you go, Von?
Were you picture and your pregnant girlfriend? You would ask that? Yeah,
and you know what, Yeah, I know right, I would never ask
that. I would not. They wouldn't put him out there to the woman.
I wouldn't be there. And I'm sure the PR guys like if that
would ask him because people are gonna want to talk to him at some point,
like players usually talk on Thursdays and after game days. So we'll see.
My point is, this is the third time that somebody's been accusing him
of something, and every time it gets swept under the rug. Why because
these victims, you know, they realize, look, gravy train's going to
dry up, baby, we gotta do something. So okay, all right,
So I mean there's stories and then I'm not gonna say who it was
out because Twitter likes to cancel people. Twitter decided to go back and try
to resurrect another alleged spousal abuser who's to play for the Buffalo Bills, And
this became a thing over the weekend and eventually it died out. But it's
wrong on so many levels. You got people who were just want to pull
out the pitchforks to cancel people. And I think it's mostly because he's just
not performing. If he were performing, hey look, we got we should
be a coach with the Brandon Bean. We got to let this play out.
They give you a they gave you a statement last week, so stick
with it. It's all you gotta do it instead of trying to the general
manager out there to take the bullets. It's a sacrificial land new one because
you know what he's gonna say. Yeah, but you knew it was coming
and they had to do something this. You're right, so he states it.
You make it look good. You make people feel like, hey,
we asked the questions, we did our part. Everybody's it on. We
go. Yeah, my conscience is clear now, Dan, Yeah, I
did, because it was the first player that they've like who's had a history
that they didn't really fully investigate. Well because hey, you know what,
well I understand and and but vomb was never charged with he wasn't. So
that's like Chartle keeps finding this daid and it is that the guy we knew.
Yeah, we thought oj was an awesome dude too. Well, many
people did. People still do? Okay, Okay, some do, even
though his remorse, he has not shown any remorse. Some do. A
violence seems to be just on the rise in general. And I was reading
an article today that teachers and some of them have been on the job for
one for three decades, So you're talking thirty years, somebody else, I
don't know, fifteen or eighteen years, but they're quitting because of student misbehavior.
Now, I also think you get to a tolerance level as you get
older. You just you don't want to deal with this. But I do
remember talking to I think it might have been on this podcast. Were Monroe
High School. Then we talked to somebody who they I mean, there was
a fight and she got the teacher got beat up. I talked to somebody
who knows a teacher who got her butt crabbed by a student or butt grabbed.
Yeah, and she didn't report it. And the reason she didn't report
it is because the teacher or the school comes back to her and goes,
well, looks like you can't control your classroom. Yeah, that's a strike
against you. Well they that was such pussies. Yeah, that was a
big no. That's always been a way. My father said to me.
He goes, they were going through in the early seventies, he was a
teacher, and he goes, yeah, they were starting to fire teachers,
and he goes, I just knew if I could keep my classroom control.
He goes, the kids were lating fires and garbage cans and do it.
And he goes, it was out of the place, was wild, and
he said, we just I just knew if I kept the kids quiet,
and I didn't send anybody down to the main office. You know, because
he goes, look first in, last in, first out right, last
in, last hired, the most recent hire. You're usually the first to
be fired. So he's like, so I knew, I goes, if
I can get through this, and I just I just get to do exactly
what right, I'm not a trouble maker. I'm not. I'm not bringing
the kids down all the time. And yeah, but these are teachers that
are saying even though I ran a tight class, the disrespect just skyrocketed.
Probably seventy five percent of my time was dealing with discipline. The stress of
it was so much I even hated just driving down the road to school.
I didn't want to go anymore. So after thirty years, enough was enough.
And she now owns a small art studio. Yeah, I don't blame
her. I don't blame her. Here's what's gonna have to work. We're
gonna lose to features a cop after so many years you want to Yeah,
because after the whole George Floyd think, cops, we're done. You know
this is done. You know what. I don't blame them. I don't
blame them. This is ridiculous. We have no respect. I don't want
to sound like it's like nineteen fifty four. I don't know what the I
don't know what. We have less and less respect for authority than ever before.
Well, I think no, I think you are looking forward, just
like this song Dan right here. I think this is what you want.
This is kind of the the Dan Burrello thinking, right, Gosha, we
made how is the song? Yeah? Uh, I don't know. I
find it sad because you you you hear this more and more with teachers.
I don't think. I think they're having a hard time in the city of
Rochester to keep teachers. I'm not sure about the suburbs, but you know,
things start to spill out after a while and just it's so hard.
I want to put up with it. It's so hard. I mean,
it's well, your wife's a teacher. Yeah, it's it's just it's hard.
They just don't kids don't care. There's a line of The Sopranos and
season two where what you're laughing but met where because you're like Tony tells car
Man of season two, Sason season two, Yeah, yeahs an episode of
Episodes Episodes Sopranos where Tony and this is like a nineteen ninety nine or two
thousand when they taped this and Tony looks at Carmela goes as soon as you
know, he's talking about their daughter, Mento. As soon as she knows,
we're powerless, we're ft, meaning you know, like you could do
whatever you want. You can go to like the authorities on us and all
that stuff. You know, we've given we've given the kids total control.
And that's awful. And it's the education. The principals don't have the teachers
backs, the Board of Education doesn't have the administration's back. Everyone's a coward,
everyone's a pussy and let's just, you know, let's just I just
want to collect my pension and get the hell out. And this is where
we're at. So we're gonna lose good teachers. Now, you got a
crop of a generation. When I was going to school, they just tell
us, dude, New York State's gonna need two hundred thousand teachers in the
next ten years because they're all going to retire. You can't. You can't
get anybody to want to go into a classroom anymore. No, I don't
think you can. So now where he get dumber and dumber and dumber,
Maybe society's gonna get wilder and wilder these next generations. Maybe. I mean,
we were just last night we were talking about just just here, uh
made TMZ at shorts far grilling. Yeah, you know, so a New
York bar. In New York bar, it was Fairport and it was an
old guy getting beat up by security. Guy's dropping a security dropping elbows off.
But it's an older guy stunned him like stone cold stud. Somebody came
in here this morning. Uh, Billy Broomfield who some people may know Billy,
And uh, he's a Fairport guy, well connected. And I said,
anybody know who they goes. I'll see if I can find out he
goes. But you know, it's a lot of people come in to those
bars from outside of the Fairport area. And I go, this is an
old guy. Did he didn't come in for unless he was coming to pick
up his kids. You know that we're there for college. This is an
older guy. That's a bar he probably drinks at often, and now they're
taking over and he probably mouthed dog and get out of my way. And
the next thing, you know, all hell broke. I don't know,
I don't know what happened, but back in mind, but there's a lot
of this vine. I don't I don't know, like I remember things getting
a little bit out of hand in schools, but I mean, you're seeing
like one teature in this article that I was reading, I took a kid's
phone away and the kid wound up knocking her out, stomping on her.
And I hope those are extreme cases that we're hearing about, because it's not
like and then the mother of the kid pleaded with the court for mercy.
Yeah, but you know what, here's an idea. I would throw you
in jail on it. Yeah, what mercy on him? How about you
go and fill his sentence? You want to do that, Yeah, because
we have too many babies having babies nowadays, it's ridiculous. Well, I
don't mean like, you know, childhood, pregnancy or teacher. I'm talking
about just immature parenting. Well, I had a conversation with children. I
know, that's very very brave, very very brave. I was saying today
that I think sometimes that we don't trust like our instincts, and we don't
let people develop. I think that they're if you ask some people that at
one of the problems in our society today is that men don't know how to
be men, which sounds ridiculous because our dads came up in a different time,
if they're still alive, and it was a different time, and so
now some of those things that you may have learned from your dad, but
then I'm a dad and I've got guys in my twenties, so I don't
know. But there's an awful lot of influence on your kids that you're not
even aware of coming through the phone. They're in their room watching something.
You're just happy they're quiet, so you get fifteen minutes a piece. You
know what I'm saying as a parent, I no, but I really well,
not even that. I'm just saying, they get to be a teenager.
You don't know what they're looking or what they're hearing or what's going on.
But I think, like, you know, much like the gambling thing
where this woman saying, well, we're seeing housing not happening, and most
of it's the younger segment where people were buying houses they're not, and they
were dating and they're not. And we're seeing most of the leisure money spent
on sports betting. That's the biggest growing industry in our country. I don't
know. I think that we've had our head in the computer a lot,
and that we use excuses like, well, the society's changed. Men don't
know how to necessarily be men. We don't know how to talk to women.
We don't know, Yeah, you do, yeah, you do cut
the shit you do fucking stop. I will say that I do think not
knowing how to do things around your home, I don't know that that has
anything to do with anything other than personal satisfaction. That's it. If you
do something in your house and it comes out, well, there's certain pride
in that. I don't give a shit. You can tell me that's wrong,
but I disagree. I think if you can hang a door and you
walk away and go shit, man, I did that, you feel pretty
good. If you go through on a YouTube video and you fix some piece
of machinery in your house, whether it be a washing machine, dishwasher,
toilet, whatever, you feel pretty fucking o. I know a guy who
like his boiler went out, Yeah, so what does? He goes to
YouTube, figures it out, goes to a home depot, buys the boiler,
brings it over with a two hours bang new boiler. But my point
is there's a real satisfaction in that, and I think sometimes we've drifted away
from that and we rely on all these other things. We use these excuses.
Well, guys can't say anything, you don't want to say anything.
Okay, maybe the pendulum swung too far. But you know what, I've
seen guys out. I've seen guys walk out of bars, young guys,
older guys, single guys, maybe not single guys. They're fucking all over
broads and then come on, it's like, you know, this whole idea,
But I do think like there is this sort of lost It almost feels
like a lost leader, like they don't have a leader, so they're looking.
And so now everybody's buried in the phone and stop think for yourself.
You've got it in you, that inner voice that I talked about earlier,
follow fucking that and stop with this bullshit and pick up a hammer and figure
something out. Absolutely, stop watching goddamn videos of I don't know you pourn
you get sick after a while from look at your phone. Doesn't anybody get
phone fatigue anymore? Well, I don't know that anybody's doing it all at
once, but I think that. I mean, if we say, if
we were to say to somebody like, uh, what do you do?
How often do you just mindlessly scroll on your phone? All of a sudden,
you're mindlessly scrolling? Yeah, I think you'd be so I think a
lot of people do. I think it's become habit forming that you go and
then something grabs your eye. Yeah, and maybe it makes you laugh for
a second, and then you go, oh, that felt good. So
now I'm gonna go three four and now a half hour's gonna go. God,
I get fill the twitch. I can't get anything done the day flies
by. Pull your head out of your ass and do the work, yes,
and then you'll feel better And then look at your phone, get dope.
Yesterday I was I was officiating a funeral for my uncle's and so yeah,
but like so, I kept leaving my phone in the car just because
you know, yes, you gotta go to the cemetery. Got go to
the chap, got the funeral, and it was great. How do you
get that job? So here's what happens. Are you the guy in the
family that Yeah, I'm the family pr person? Basically when my city,
hey use the word basically. My sister, when she got married, I
say, hey, let me get official, let me get my officials,
my efficients license, and I'll marry you. And she said okay, And
so I married her and my brother in law. And then people liked my
performance so much that they hired me for other events. So now I've done
about twelve weddings and four funerals. Now the funerals. The funerals were like,
were just me delivering eulogies for people. Right yesterday, I had to
conduct the funeral from start to finish. That's the first time I've ever done
that in my life. And the reason is because pressure. Do you feel
pressure? I did feel some pressure. I did feel some pressure. But
at the end of the day, I know how to talk, and I
wrote it out and I had a gospel message behind it, and God got
me through that and everything worked out. There you go. So it was
Actually it wasn't as bad as I thought it would. People I love to
go to your church. I'm like, well, I'm not. I'm not
a minister. I only do weddings and funerals. I and Bob mitz,
Oh wait, I'm not that I can't do that, but yeah, I
mean so, yeah, something funerals and kids parties. Yeah, but what's
one of those. I left my phone in the car most of the day,
including the gathering afterward. I'm like, and all I had on it
that I missed was three text from Peter Mounti Murno about the bills and the
Sopranos to Bills and the Sopranos. He goes, Oh, by the way,
