the Soldier Matt reeser back. Matt recently turned fifty, took a trip.
I quiz him all about that and a recent post he put on Facebook that
led him to bringing in his friend Dave Lippa, a guy we should all
know. Twenty sixteen is when actually yesterday, eight years I lost my best
friend to suicide, who was a federal agent. So I'm doing this more
or less even though he wasn't a veteran. I'm doing a lot of this
in his memory to try to get people to start talking. I asked the
question, is the NFL too greedy and with gambling they got to get the
calls right. I have an idea to replace the current refs with better ones.
If the NFL wants to put their money where their mouth is and talk
all this stuff about being supportive of the armed services, then let's take guys
who are leaving the arm services that are young, disciplined, and in shape
and make them fucking raffs. Social media can get you fired, but should
this waitress have been fired for posting something on TikTok from work fall. They
let this person in with a blow up. Ta okay, great question,
I don't have an answer to that, and a round of name that movie

is it, Conny, I'm pretty close, pretty close, don all
right? So Mark the soldiers here, and Mark says, is that Joe
Kelly's voice? It is not, but it's somebody you know, Terry Like,
it's Harry Like, O Hey, We've been doing this for how long?
And you just now are realizing that terror just just click like it just
sort of Yeah. Isn't that funny? You hear something, to hear something,
and then all of a sudden it just jumps out one day. Yeah,
that's weird. That's very strange. Uh, Matt is back and uh
he brought Dave Lippa and we're gonna get to all that stuff with Dave,
and having Dave was the first one here like it made me nervous. He
came in and I was like, I don't know, because you know what
it is. It's the braided beard thing. I like that. Who I
piss off? Hat scary than Baka? He would know, you know what
he here's the thing. He's got too friendly of a face. He's got
too friendly. You're not a menacing looking guy. But he's got the sleeve
tattoo and the and the you know, I got it. I gotta see
this part of No, the hair is tough. I think you're tough.
I don't until they sat the eye was really did look menacing. But Matt
is back. And the big thing with Matt Matt turned. Can I say
yeah fifty Yeah, Okay, why couldn't you say that? Well, I
don't. I don't know. That's a really good age. Some some women
do. I don't think that. Matt was very open. He was all
over Facebook and everything else. I shouldn't say that. But how did did
it feel different? No? It did? Know what, It's like a
celebration, not like my dad passed away at fifty. See this is why
I was wondering if it felt different. And as my dad died when I
was twenty four, I was in my head that I would be dead by
fifty, if not sooner, you know, really, and I don't know
why did you live like you figured? Fuck it, I don't care whatever
happens, I'll be dead by fifty in the last probably six seven Here Does
that make life a little more fun and adventurous? Though? I mean,
I don't mean that the negative. I mean it could hurt down the road.
Okay, yet I understand the back Yes, no, not de Niez.
So it was not was it? So? It was sort of a
big deal to you because of your dad. Yeah. Other than that,
it didn't feel anything different, though, I mean, no, thirty was
hard for me. Why. I don't know. It was like a six
month like, fuck, I'm thirty, My life is over? You're kidding?
Yeah, I really thought. You know, there are twenty years later?
Oh, is there anything as you look back, because you know,
fifty is a milestone? You're there? Right, Yeah, I'm there.
I'm fifty two. Dave, were you there twenty one? Okay? You
look at it? Definitely? I would id you anytime you walked there,
you're fifty five? Oh, I wouldn't have put you that old, not
that that's any different than any one of us, really fifty year old,
but when you I know, right, isn't that funny because I'm just sorry
being young? Yeah, I Kevin is younger than all of us. But
it's a weird thing because I don't even feel I feel like I got a
lot of shit to do. And I'll tell you what. When you look
at people who accomplish big things in life, the biggest years between forty and
sixty, that's when Einstein came up with the incandescent light, the recorder,
all this shit. Part of it is you're not fucking around anymore and literally
fucking right like you know, you got all that energy. He's hoping it
happens soon for me because it hasn't happened yet. Put out the first ten
years sucked. To tell you, forty to fifty sucked. It better get
better if you fifteen sixty, What is the uh, forty to fifty sucked?
Yeah? Oh it's best struggle? Really? Yeah? Why is that?
I don't know, just you know, owning a business for those years,
well yeah, yeah, well we got to you had the whole COVID
thing Yeah. Yeah, that's the tough. Have you learned anything along the
way that you look back and you go, man, I was sweating the
wrong things? And I know this is sort of that's you definitely stress,
don't you a little bit? Like you start looking back and you go,
what was I sweating that for when I should have been focused over here,
you know, doing doing the right thing. Is there anything that you you
look back and maybe regret at all? Yeah, buying a fucking restaurant.
I would never do that again. You wouldn't know. I did see a
Dave Ramsey thing that he says, if you're sure, way to go broke
is to buy a restaurant. But everybody, but I don't know how BTV
did. I just hear about it a lot. I've been in there.
It's always got it seems like a lot of people other people I know who
own restaurants seem to be okay, but it looks like it's one of the
hardest things. And mostly because of who you have working for you, which
tough. I think you got to you probably have a great staff over there.
I'm just saying, like, fine, getting to that point got to
be like yeah, I mean, it's been a struggle for them to get
a solid staff that they have now. So yeah, I mean it's been
three and a half years. Yeah, and you still got that core staff,
right, You're always trying to add that piece, and you think you
add that piece and a month later the person just no shows. You know.
It's got to hills. Yeah, piece fifty living my Dall's Cowboys life
all over. At the end, they're disappointed. Later in the podcast,
I have to say, I I would like to get in this into this
because you're back and this is a big one and it's is the NFL and
greedy, and I've got a whole bunch of reasons why. I think,
like to the point where could they and I don't think it will happen soon,
but could they start turning people away? I think they're going to start.
I think you're right, but we'll we'll We'll hold on onto that for
for just a second. Is there anything that no longer pisses you off that
used to piss you off years ago? Because I have that as I've gotten
older, igo that used to really bother me. And I'm like, why,
why why did I even care? I don't think my head, no,
nothing, I have a lot longer fuse now that Yeah, there not,
which is insane for me. Yeah, which is good. It takes
takes. It takes more than more than just a snap of the finger to
get me a snap now. So well, that's pretty good. I've done
that. You know, you've been friends with him for a long time.
Do you ever pissed them? I haven't get it. He choked me once,
you're kidding any donkey punches his defense. I figured it was something you
did. It wasn't defending why he got choked. This is great. His
cousin passed away, and we went and we all went to the wake,
and and we were all drinking. And I don't know. I don't remember
what happened either. I don't remember what happened. You have a fat mouth
that I didn't do a thing. He was mad at somebody else. Catch
I was My window was open. It was it was car. We were
in the car. You were in the car. I wasn't the window through
the window. Look see now, this is the thing. I have to
think you said something I didn't. Was you shot some comment out that or
something? It wasn't me. It was a situation, all right, all
right, I'll believe it. But Matt, you did post something that and
I called you to make sure you were cool to talk about it. But
depression, and I think that there's a lot of people that are dealing with
a lot of things, and I think there's a lot of residual from COVID
stuff personally. But I have no idea that's the case. But you were
pretty open and honest, and I read some of the comments then and it
was I don't know how to I guess refreshing would be the term that people
felt like they had a place and a sounding board, because you said you
don't answer your phone, but if you call me about this, I will.
And then there's somebody else who's going you may not agree with my politics
and my other thing, which I loved, and I only loved it because
I wish we could all get back to that. I agree where we could
stop. I won't talk to that person because I don't agree with their politics,
but yet maybe they can relate to the human experience I'm having and give
me some advice. And who gives a shit who you vote for? Shouldn't
I just whatever? Like I don't want to get into that thing, but
I saw that, and I thought that was really very very I guess cool.
It seems a little bit of a weak word to me to say.
I thought it was very admirable. Admirable Am I saying that right? No,
I'm not, but yeah, something like that. You work in schools.
I figured you'd help you eight year old I'm not going too well,
you can relate great to this crowd. I just uh, but I did.
I was like, Wow, that's pretty fucking because I had no idea,
and you said something about shirts that you order and these things that kind
of help you. What Like, you've been dealing with this your whole life.
Looking back, I think I have. Yeah, I didn't know it.
Yeah, And you know I or just ignored her or pretended I wasn't.
Yeah. Yeah, but it's probably been more prevalent over the last like,
say ten years. Ten years. Have you gotten help? I have
you have? So because I'm going boy for somebody to talk about it,
you got to be okay with it. And I was like, wow,
I didn't know that at all. Yeah, I saw a counselor for a
while. I don't did it help. It didn't really help. Yeah,
I sometimes say the same thing. It doesn't help. I just go swing
up my meds seriously, right, because they need to talk to him.
Yeah, you have to go. You have to go and make sure you
have to go once. Yeah, once a year to talk to the psychiatrist
and then then the doctor, my doctor will will will give me in my
mats. I have to go once a year. Then I went to a
counselor and he died. So I haven't seen anybody since. It's my luck
my counselor dies. Maybe that's a good thing. You don't have to go.
You still got your beds. Who cares. We'll give you Danny's number
after during the break. That's not that's not the number you want. But
about Dog, with all this stuff that you're you're dealing with and the way
you talked about it, I was like, wow, so how bad has
it gotten for you? There's times where it's you know, there's times where
it's really bad. There's times where it's just you know, you just kind
of deal with it. And Dave and I talk all the time. You
know, a lot of times you're so busy doing other things and for other
people, you just forget about yourself and you don't think about it. So
it's a lot easier that way. Yeah, Like I'll be glad that I'll
be the first person so dave to jump up and help somebody. And I
think that helps because then it takes my mind off the ship I'm going through.
Somebody else is going through something worse out there, you know. Yeah,
so that that will sometimes turn the depression and say, you know,
it's really not that fucking bad. Kind of didn't get over it, man,
you know. Yeah, And there's the thing sometimes, Yeah, I
always think like you got to keep it in perspective of this is what you're
dealing with. It's nice to know I'm not alone, right, I'm not
alone in my thoughts. Other people are feeling things, people are going through
stuff. But it's but but it doesn't make what I'm going through anything necessarily
easier. It just makes it maybe a little more tolerable, I guess.
But you also have to have somebody who's pretty strong in your life, and
it sounds like you do with Natalie. Yeah, yeah, Austin looked like
it was pretty amazing. Yeah. Yeah, I don't take really Oh yeah,
I forget the time. So they only get about three weeks of humidity
like this every year, but they just went through those storms. Yeah,
we got there. It was it was one hundred degrees every day, one
percent humidity. Holy shit, it was like a song. It was bad.
I like to heat. Yeah, yeah, human, he's too much.
Yeah. So the last day was one hundred and four. One hundred
and four. Yeah, what was the index? Did they give you like
one hundred and twelve? Yeah? Yeah, so it's even just that little
bit of degrees. A hotel, all the windows were all steam out,
you know, and as soon as you walked outside it was like wow.
So you know I had set it closer during the day and then changed clothes
when you get home. Really, yeah, it was it was too close
a day. A lot of everyone's is walking around fire. My fat ass
is sweating like a pig would right there. We stopped at one place for
live music, you know, remember walking and my shirt was just soaked.
I mean we walked six miles that day. Me is soaked. Yeah.
You know, people are like, is this fact I canna have a heard
attack? Or what to drinking that damn beer? Well you so then what
is days? How do you know? Dave we met it was two thousand
and seven. He's a friend of mine seventeen through Mark. Through Mark,
Dave's a friend of mine. Okay, sixteen, twenty seventeen, Yeah,
because it was Mark just took over to me. It was it was it
eighteen Mark, Yeah, I went. It was about probably seventeen. I
took it before you came on. It might have been before you came on,
Yeah, because we were doing the outside show with Trist right, that's
how we well, trist was afterwards, but you were on. You were
because you brought me in when you guys are all on the meeting. Yeah,
that's right, because that's when we did the glasses at first, right,
Yeah, yes, so Dave had is this the what is the name
of the organization? It's not even it's not it's just me. It's it's
just you. Stop the twenty two a day, which was designed when I
first started doing this to help veterans, bring awareness to veterans that struggle from
PTSD, mental health, depression, all that stuff. It was just to
get people to start talking. So then yeah, or we can crank that
up towards them. You can lift that up there. What's the so what
is the your connection with that? Did? I think? I asked you
were you in the services I never served. I became. I just started
riding a motorcycle in twenty thirteen, and I wanted to do something that was
meaningful and worthwhile. So I joined the Patriogard Riders and standing flagline with a
bunch of veterans and me not serving. I'm watching some of these veterans that
struggle from PTSD and I wanted to do something to bring awareness to them.
For me not serving, I wanted to try to give back to them.
And that's where it all started. And it started selling a patch like the
logo is on that pint glass. It was a patch and I sold I
think in a year, over five hundred of them. And next thing,
you know, the person that I was actually selling the patch for, who
actually designed it, he disappeared. He just I wasn't able to order anything
anymore. So Facebook is a wonderful thing. It took a year for me
to find them, but I asked him if I can take that logo over
and take it to another level. And twenty sixteen is when, actually yesterday,
eight years I lost my best friend to suicide, who was a federal
agent. So I'm doing this more or less even though he wasn't a veteran.
I'm doing a lot of this in his memory to try to get people
to start talking. And when I met with Matt, alcohol and mental health
do not mix whatsoever, and I don't promote that at all. What I
do do is when they sell these glasses at BTBS and back then it was
back to a Billies, it's to get people to start talking. So you
see someone drinking out of that pine glass, You're gonna say, what does
that mean? And then it brings up a conversation. So, like I
tell everybody, the conversation is always good to have to strike up whenever.
And when we started with Matt, I mean he said bring them all in
and I forgot how many we started with him one day and we started,
I think I made that three trips to bat to Abillies with I think we
sold seventy one hundred glasses and that that that first day. I mean,
it was unbelievable. It's like I'm I'm out, I have to get more.
You know, my my vendor at the time was really good. I
was able to produce some really quick for me. But you know, my
biggest thing is as men were not supposed to show our feelings. You can't
show your feelings, you know. But what I tried telling people is the
strongest person in the room is the one that can express how they're feeling and
express their feelings when they are struggling. And you know, I had I
have talked to Matt, but I didn't know he was to that point to
where he was struggling that bad. But we've had kind of conversations and like
I tell mad or tell Mark or anybody. My phone's on twenty four to
seven. So I'm I'm constantly talking to veterans, first responders, and just
people in the community that are struggling. So this just out of the goodness
of your heart. You have no psychology training or anything like that. Nope,
it's my professional and since then, opinion, you've probably learned a ton.
I'm still learning. Yeah, I'm not right sure, but I bet
you have come. You know how to talk to people, let them speak
when not you know, be a I guess a better listener than talker,
right, because a lot of times people that are struggling, they don't want
to hear you, right, they want to be able to have someone be
a sounding board. So that they can talk how they're feeling, and the
biggest thing is to be non judgmental. And that's what people White people have
a hard time going to counselors, therapy doctors because especially veterans before you go
and see the VA or a lot of different places that have professional counselors that
went to school to actually give you advice, which I highly recommend people go
to those organizations. But sometimes it's easier though to talk to a friend or
someone I see as a friend and you can't lose anything with me. Yeah,
my opinion doesn't matter. What matters to me is that you're able to
express how you feel one hundred percent and know what you can walk away at
any time and be able to express how you're feeling. And so you know
the term that every time I hear it, I would cringe, right,
and then I had to look into it further. They toxic masculinity. Right,
Well, hear about this, but it's exactly what you just said at
the beginning. It's where guys felt like they couldn't talk about how they were
feeling and they had to be like these big tough pillars of whatever of humanity
that you know, I can bear it all, and really you can't.
And that is now it's become like this thing where it's to overtake a culture.
I go, okay, hold on a second, let's bring it back
a little bit here. It was really meant to help guys. That was
the original term for exactly what you just said. Yeah, I mean we
were brought up. That's the way my father's generation, my grandfather's generation,
and the generations before him, we were always brought up. You don't show
your feelings, you're you have to be strong man, gotta be suck it
up, like you said earlier, Suck it up, Suck it up.
Well man, Yeah, it's not the time and place anymore. It's a
different day and age, and and I mean, by the way, we're
not talking about being a big weepy all. We're not having a knitting club
over here. It's just like, you know, it helps. I don't
mean it like that. It works, You're right, Dave, my bad.
I mean he's trying, we're trying to say. He's trying to tell
you, you know, well, what I'm saying to say is you all
of a sudden, you go, I don't mean it like that. And
sometimes me and Dave get together. We need and I still like it.
We share it, girl up pretty much just ship. What I was trying
to do was say that while some people may hear this is like a saw,
it's not that. It's guys who are like listening to you each other
and supporting each other in a way that isn't going to be Or some people
might go, ah, that's not for me, because I still think there
are guys who go for me. It's not for me, but this is
different. This isn't look at Dave, you know. And here's what I
think too. I don't know you from anything, but I think you would
shoot somebody straight. I think you would say to somebody, hey, listen,
I want to call you on a little bs here, don't let don't
let these things. You know, here's somebody who you may be able to
help you. But I'm gonna check in with you again tomorrow, right And
I am. He's checked it on mean before. I'll be honest, I'm
a pain in the ass, I really am, because you being here tomorrow
is more important to me than until you know the whole thing is, until
you actually physically lose somebody, you'll never get it. Yeah, you'll never
understand it. You'll never get it, and it goes for a bunch of
different you know, types of people that pass away. You're just never gonna
get it unless you've been a part of it, right and you know,
and you know, like we were talking earlier, yesterday was my best friend's
anniversary. I mean, he was a federal agent and it was his third
attempt. I was with him before his third attempt almost every day, every
weekend, you know, helping him around the house. But his brain was
not working properly. I mean, he had some other issues. But you
know, we can say it was selfish. We can say a lot of
things, and I will put it out here. I'm pissed at him,
I really am. But I can also say I understand it. Yeah,
I was gonna say. I sometimes don't always agree with the selfish part.
I think there's so much pain that they see no way out, and no
matter what you're doing, it's just the pain is too much until you I
have been with someone every day and then after they're gone, and this took
me a year to get But I read his note and he was in a
very dark place and he was struggling and there was nobody that was going to
get him out of that place. And like, like I've always said,
we don't know what's going on on the inside because we all had that big,
huge smile. You know, if you if you didn't know mad or
you didn't know Mark, I mean half the time they're smiling all the time,
you don't know how much pain. Then I would have known that,
you know, and you know we I would have known with Mark because Mark,
he's always complaining about something. Oh yeah, but you got to look
past that sometimes. So I know somebody who was institutionalized. I caught early
institutionalized, and what they would do is take away every privilege you have.
So you started to make you appreciate taking a walk? What's the point.
But I don't go in. When you go in there, you're giving up
your rights. You're going you're totally giving up everything. And you have to
know that a lot of times you don't know that. I don't think.
But the last time that I had a breakdown, I've refused to fucking go
yeah, because I'm not I'm not losing my rights. I'm not gonna lose
I'm not going to have them take everything. Did you ever go before.
I've been in a freaking looney been a couple of different times. Okay,
yeah, it's it's not a nice place. No, it is not,
it's not. And then you see people that are really crazy, They are
really mentally ill, right, you know, really like, yeah, they
can't control any know, yeah, they can't control. Did it help you
at all? No, it didn't. Didn't help it all. It make
things worse. They take you and they throw you in a green they three
in a green room. It's like you feel like you're in jail. It's
that's how and that's how you're treated. Wow. Yeah, at least that's
the way it is a general at general and I went, I don't know
where it is anywhere else. But I'm not too privy on a lot of
that stuff. My thing is to try to catch people before they get to
that point. So how do people help your organization? You know, it's
just can we find you on Facebook? I'm on Facebook. Yeah, I'm
constantly just Dave Lippa l I p p A. Yeah, I'm just constantly
putting stuff out there. My biggest thing is buddy checks. My biggest thing
also is just get people to talk. I mean, I'm at events every
weekend, sometimes two three events in one day, you know, and this
takes out a lot of time out of my personal life. And like I
try telling people, if you think I want to be at these events every
weekend. I miss out with my girlfriend, I miss out stuff with my
grandson. But you know what, I did say one event that I'm not
at, that there's going to be someone looking. And that's already happened to
me once before, where I had someone pull me outside at an event for
me and start crying and tell me today was my last day. I listened
to you talk and all my letters are written, and I was wasn't going
to be here tomorrow. And that's got to freak out a bit, it
does, you know, I don't. My thing is when people tell me
that I don't know if I should be sad or happy, because I think
I think my instinct would be to give the person a hug. I know
that sounds weird, but I think I would want to grab him and pull
them in and go, You're okay, right, glad? You know I
do. I have a list of people I do check in on to make
sure they're okay. I mean, some of them are a couple of times
a week, somewhere every other day. I got a guy from I forgot
what state he's in. His father lives here. I mean three hour conversations
on my phone, just to make sure that he's okay. And I mean,
we may go over the same thing over and over and over again.
But until he's done and he feels better, that's when the conversation's over.
I don't say, well, I got someplace to be. The conversation has
to end now. I don't end the conversations. I mean the phone calls.
I get, they're just they're unbelievable. But to do it face to
face with someone as they're crying and telling you today was my last day.
I mean, I think I I mean, I don't put myself up here
on a pedestal. I put the community on that pedestal because without their support,
I wouldn't be able to do what I do. And for people to
trust me enough knowing that I'm not a professional and be able to talk if
it almost makes it better. You know, I'm sorry because you can actually
relate to it. Yeah, and relating to a doctor. How many times
do you hold back a little bit because you're afraid, like Mark said,
you lose your rights. Are they going to send me somewhere else? One
of my Oh man, right, you can't trust you can't trust the doctor
when it comes to this, when it comes to something like this, because
I'm sorry to hear, they got to protect they got to protect themselves.
Doctors, yes, they don't care about well because it's also the insurance and
who's going to sue and what's going to happen. But you then, obviously
you get someone like Dave that's around and that kind of makes to Dave.
Do you would you ever do people help you, like try to help you
grow it all? Do you have like I have a really good group of
people, whether they're elected officials, Yeah, police departments, a lot of
first few first responders that the organizations support what I do because I do bring
awareness to our first respond I mean, here's the thing. What you said,
a guy just talking to you for three hours, Right, you're not
going to chase my phone. But if that's at noon on a Wednesday and
you got to work, it's almost you almost wish you could go. Hold
on. I'm going to connect you with somebody who has the time, Somebody
who's working a third shift or something and it's a friend of yours. You
can't do that. It's just me, Yeah, I know, just me.
I take as much time as I can. I mean it's hard when
I'm at work. People do understand. But if there's someone that's had enough
and they really need to talk, I mean yeah, sometimes though, if
you can say to someone but it might be it might be nice sometimes though,
to say I'm gonna I'm gonna call you right at five thirty, just
just hang tough. Can you hang till five thirty? Yes, I can,
depending on how how they are when I first originally called that. I
mean, if I feel like we can wait till five thirty, they're not,
if they're not at their end, you know where If I don't talk
to you right now, I'm done, you know. But if they are
able to talk at a later time and it's not an emergency, I'll say
then. You know, we do set up times. How can people donate?
Because nothing runs on air? I mean you're running out of all the
weekends, there's gas, there's stuff. I mean, you're not gonna lie.
I've invested a lot of money in this. I can My financial guy
is a little pissed. I mean, sure, I lost both my parents
within three months, right before COVID, and I'm not gonna lie. My
inherance is gone because I invested so much into this. Yeah, and basically
I'm in the hole. I mean, my whole thing is I'd rather be
in a hole financially than have to dig one for somebody. I got that.
I do set up shop. I mean, I do have merchandise.
I do sell and a portion goes to But is there any where someone can
donate through like a website or something to you? No, there's not.
No. I mean, if people want to donate, they can hit me
up on Facebook and how to do that? I got you or something like
that. I try not to because it's it's it's hard, especially you don't
want to look like you're I understand that, I get it. You don't
want to look like you're begging in order trying to do something. But you're
doing this work. I think I don't do it for money. I mean,
I guess I'm in a hole. I mean, but there may be
somebody listening or who hears this. And the great thing about a podcast is
it you know, right, I mean he's got legs. It'll stay around
for a while and if somebody's listening and here's it and goes man. I
had an aunt, I had a you know, cousin, my best friend,
just like Dave. They may want to donate to say hey, I
appreciate what you're doing. And you know, even if it's a twenty five
dollars venmo, I can go a long way. Yeah, it does it,
and I mean it's it's it's tough. You never know how much you're
reaching people with what you do. I mean a year ago, March thirty,
first, my other pickup truck caught fire in my front yard. And
what happened fa faulty tail. Faulty tail. You had an electrical fire?
Yeah, so it started in the tail light and got to wear the CAS
tank. Nope, it just the whole back end lonstory show. We had
a medical emergency at the house. The fire department and ambulance just left and
the person that had the medical emergency, they were putting her in a car
to go home. And as you were leaving, they said, they yelled
in David, your truck's on fire. You know what tomorrow is April fools.
So I said, you know, you guys are day day early.
You know. They said, no, Dave, there's flames out the back
of your truck. And I went out there and there's flames out the back
of my truck, you know. And the fire department had to come back
put out the fire. And at first we thought it was arson. But
my house is like Fort Knox. I got cameras over the place, and
it actually showed the fire start in the tail light, and like, like
Matt was saying, there's always something worse that could have happened. I mean,
could have been horrible, man. I think could have exploded, blown
out a window in your house, and then that cats so find you know
what I mean. Yeah, Well, the whole thing is I normally park
up against the garage on a Friday night and before ten o'clock. I'm I'm
old, I'm usually in bed and we have our grandson over. I would
have never known that the truck was on fire, and I would have known
once it got to the bedroom. And so the person that parked in the
middle of a double wide driveway, I was joking around, but I'm glad
they did because they saved our life not even knowing it. So after the
truck caught fire, I actually found out how much I mean. To a
lot of people, it was just a truck to everybody. It should have
been just a truck. To me, it was more than a truck.
But I had people wanted to run events. I had people that want to
go fundmese and I told everybody, no, you know, the truck is
fully wrapped with everything in the say to twenty two and everything, so it's
not just a pickup truck. This thing is fully wrapped with everything. So
the new truck is is beautiful. Yeah, and the other one was nice
too, though, but this one here, Yeah, they went over and
about and you know, it's just two people did a GoFundMe and didn't ask
me, and we raised a little bit of money. It was. It
was enough to get a down payment on the truck. But I mean perfect.
That's going to make you feel great and that's going to motivate you to
keep going. And we did a truck unveiling. We went to BTBS and
did an unveiling nice and you know, it wasn't about donations. It was
about giving back to the community that donated and tried to help me out and
BTBS is a huge support of what I do and has been since seven sixteen
seven. It's not just us there, He's got a ton of bars and
restaurants that did sell these glasses. So basically, you buy the glass for
fifteen dollars and your first drink is free. I don't know if everybody does
that, I think they do. We do it. You know, you
can do a beer, you can do a drink, whatever you want to
do in it. You can do pepsi if you want to do it.
Sure, but you know, you get to keep the glass and the money
goes back to Dave obviously, and he's able to buy more glasses and donate
some money, so it works out well. Good stuff, man. That's
I mean, that's I try. I just, I just. What I
try to do is try to get people not feeling how I still feel today.
I live June nine, twenty sixteen, between thirty and four thirty every
day, and you know, I have my own personal struggles, but living
that on what I could have done, should have done. Nothing would have
saved them. But that's my whole thing, is get people not feeling the
way I still do. Yeah, I can't imagine I can't imagine that,
because I would think that you'd be all the time going man, I was
just there, you know whatever, gonna hate it, I tell you this,
but he was just uh, just honored with the sl what is it?
The people, the Jefferson Award. He was one of the recipients of
it. He tried to give it back and say, no, give it
to somebody else, Dolly pardon. You know. The nomination was fine with
me. I don't need an award. I'm very grateful and very happy that
I got it. I want the award to be focused on the mission and
not me good. I don't want that's right me to be the focus.
I want well. I think getting that award also brings more awareness to what
you're doing, which may bring more money and more eyes and help more people,
which is a great thing. And I think you gotta be rewarded for
what you're doing a little bit. I think it's nice to know the community
appreciates it. It's a lot of work. It's a lot of work,
you know, working full time and yeah, trying to be a grandfather and
a boyfriend and all this other stuff. It's it. It takes a lot
of time away from home. Yeah, boyfriend, then it's like too much
work already right there. They should find him on Facebook and follow him on
there. And then sometime in July and Dave and I haven't talked about this
yet, but we'll get together on a Saturday and do something where if you
come in for dinner and buy dinner, I'm going to donate a glass to
you. Okay, So we'll do something like that, hopefully in a Saturday.
I know his schedule is pretty books so but he'll be able to set
up merchandise table and stuff. Nice. All right, Yeah, let me
know. I'd love to make sure we push that a lot. And then
also when the music Fest happens on August third, if you're available, obviously
you set up your your tenth there and sell your merchandise. Nice. Uh,
we'll take a moment and we'll get we'll change it to the NFL because
there's a whole bunch of stuff. And I think I think you're gonna be
with me on this, but I don't know. And you're going to have
a better perspective on it because you are a season ticket holder for two teams,
which I don't think I know anybody who's a season ticket holder for two
teams. I don't though out there. I don't think I know anybody.
We will get to that. But bTB Wood Wood Fire, Pizza and Grill
on the mall at Grease Ridge. So the specials this month. Last week
we had the chicken spinach artichoke. No, that was weird. The chicken
apple, the chicken apple, that's right, the chicken apple that was so
good with the cheddar cheese, and the now we have is it? The
what what am I eating here? Because Philly mac and cheese. Philly mac
and cheese. Okay, the Philly mac and cheese is so damn good that
I would have inhaled it already if I wasn't trying to paste myself for that
pig out in front of day for like a animal. But they specials this
month. Salt and pepper wings are on special. Right, that's a shareble
so it's perfect. So if you go in there to watch Stanley Cup,
NBA Finals, the NBA Finals, I'm a little disappointed. Is it?
It's because I'd like to see Dallas at least get a couple here. They're
gonna get it, cause I don't know what's going on with Kyrie sneakers,
but I don't know, they look like moccasins. They'll get some in Dallas,
do you think so? All right? Because I figured it it's until
somebody wins a road game that the series really starts. Both these teams have
been pretty bad at home this year, so for both of them winning,
Yeah, at least during the playoffs they haven't been that good. But we
did. We had the chicken apple panini last week that was absolutely phenomenal.
Uh and then the strawberry pop tart blonde, which is your dessert of the
month. I gotta think that would be a nice put that on like a
little cap there at the end. You still have the patios open, the
bars there you can go get the bikini martini warm up this week, Yes
it is. It's gonna be in the eighties by the weekend today, but
you know, yeah no, but by the weekend it'll be great. Yeah,
Which is that's the great thing inside outside and all the games, fifty
TVs. It's bTB, wood Fire, pizza and grill. Make sure you

Striper, Yes it is. I had no idea you liked Stripper. I
followed them since eighty six. You're kidding. I see him every time,
every time they come. He's that one fan. So when I was a
kid, they I went to like a Christian camp, summer camp, and
they told us like a CDC stood for Anti Christian devil children and Prince's uh
raspberry beret was this bad song and all these bad stuff, and I'm like,
oh my god. Yeah, and uh. Then there was Striper and
I never got into Stripper, but I had no idea. Every time there's
like, you're like an onion, dude. Every time I feel something back,
I get a little bit more. Me and my brother Dave, we
go, we go and see him every time they're We've gone as fire.
We went to the Chance Some of the Chance in mckipsie I love the chance
he's still I don't know. Yeah, I think so. It was an
old like vaudeville room and it had a balcony. I loved that place.
I loved it because I had nostalgia there. I would go introduce bands and
I was eighteen nineteen years old. They would pay me seventy five dollars to
introduce the band and I give it all back to the bar because I was
under age and I already got in so they weren't checking. Yeah, and
I was drinking like rum and coke, which can you get a younger person,
you know, sugary sweet, like just out of Tom Collins next time.
I don't know, He's just bad. It was just bad at the
at the time. But you just went to see striper. Yeah, I
went and saw at the Tom Ballroom and Buffore. What do you think of
that place? I loved it. Yeah, I thought the place was great.
Yeah. Buffalo's got kind of a little bit of a researchence in entertainment
going on. They do their their theater district is fantastic. Yeah, And
it's like you sit there, we were sitting, we were sitting in this
it was like a wood fire pizza place and had a small menu and we
were just in there having drinks, waiting for the doors to open for the
for the concert, and we're just sitting there and we're looking and it does
it looks like a mini Toronto. Yeah, designed to look like a mini
Toronto. You said you went to Shave a couple of months ago and you
said that was fantastic too. Yeah. SHA's what Shase does is Shas has
their big theater. Yeah. Then they have a couple of theaters that go
down the street and we went to the one all that they owned down the
cy own. So they bring all this different type of entertainment there and they
can fit them in in each in each room. Yeah. It's interesting because
you you've kind of got that same concept here with RBTL. They have some
really nice rooms in that building that are smaller theaters, like great rooms for
like more intimate settings that I always thought was just kind of a waste.
You know, they're not putting much in there, and they're starting to now
or trying to now. They've been trying for We've been doing this for thirty
five years. I mean nothing against anybody, no, I know, but
there's no resurgence ever going to happen in Rochester. It should have happened thirty
years ago when they did, when they did high Falls, and you know,
yeah, yeah, yeah, the buffle's got to pay down the water
too. A lot of bars and restaurants are down the water and they're beautiful
river brings in some big shows. That's a nice big room there too.
So we have a canal of river and a lake we can't figure any of
not really now. Well, Fairports kind of got a nice skill going.
Yeah, Spencer Ports got a nice little spot too. I can't I can't
knock that does grease anything along the canal? There's nothing along there's no land.
There's no land along the lands. The walking Trailia, Yeah, what
about Uh that would be perfect, Charlotte would be great, Charlotte. Is
I agree? I thought for sure, man, when that fast ferry,
I thought that was all gonna explode. After that, they should have done
more bars, restaurants shopping down there. Yeah, they just missed the ball
on it, and now it's just a place for people to go and fight.
Yeah it is. So that's too bad. Uh the NFL. I
saw this today, Matt. I don't know if you've seen this that the
NFL PA has in front of it to begin training camps in June and do
away with mandatory o t as or do away with voluntary OTAs, start training
camp in June. Yeah, I didn't see that. How would they do
that? I couldn't camp. Yeah, so they had, they would have
like a training camp, and then I think they're talked about trying to maybe
start the season earlier to add those games in, like to get it too.
I thought they were going to go longer. I did too, but
trying to get the Super Bowl to a holiday, right, So yeah,
I couldn't figure it out, but it's it's there that they would start it
maybe towards the end of June beginning of July instead of the middle or end
of July. So you're talking like a two to three week period earlier,
because a lot of them don't start to like the last couple of days of
July, right, it's usually that last week month. Yeah, yeah,
too soon. It feels too soon to me too, but that's the NFL.
So Roger Goodell makes sixty four million dollars a year. He's in charge
of thirty one multi millionaire slash billionaire guys, right, who were doing these
teams and take away green Bay because they're not for profit or whatever. However
it works for them in twenty twenty two, Any guesses how much now?
It used to always be? The NFL was a nine billion dollar business in
twenty twenty two. What do you think they made twenty twenty two. So
you're talking a couple of years ago, twenty twenty two. Yeah, because
they're not gonna give you all the financials, so whatever you guess they're saying
it'll be. They're projecting higher for twenty twenty three, but let's go with
twenty twenty two, because they have hard data on this one. I would
say thirty billion, thirty billion, Yeah, okay, Dave, what do
you got? I'd say probably about twenty five thirty twenty five thirty I don't
fucking know. Just go on twenty seven point five. It's actually eighteen point
six billion dollars for twenty twenty three, and they want to and they expect
it to be a billion more than that for twenty twenty three, so close
to twenty billion dollars. Right, So, according to Goodell, his target
revenue by twenty twenty seven, which really isn't that far away? Is twenty
five billion dollars, so that means getting more eyes, more games, probably
outside the United States, I would assume, because don't we have Philadelphia and
Green Bay kicking off in Brazil? Yeah, taking armored buses to the sea
games. I'm saying they both can't wear they can't wear their own colors.
So now there's been a lot of controversy about it. I want to go
to Josh Jacobs, who used to be with the Raiders now with Green Bay.
Uh. He was on the green Light podcast with Chris Long and this
is the discussion that happened. You're going to open the season against my Eagles
down in Brazil. Man, what are you most excited about? You know,
they said that the part of Brazil were going so you can't even wear
green at Okay, Now we'll go to tell you what the NFL is saying
and what other people are saying, and people from Brazil are going on social
media and saying, but do you think he's lying? I don't think.
I don't think he's lying. I heard that really. Yeah, why they
say, like, I guess something to do with the gangs and stuff.
They said, dude, I'm not going. I'm not going. They said,
we're not going to Rio. We're going, they said, they told
us they was like, man, it's one of them places where they probably
won't even let us leave a full team. Damn, I'm not going.
What color? What college I was picturing. I was picturing, Man,
there's nobody that like I should be the gang should be excited because they're not
green. They're not they're not green. Yeah, they're not gonna say like,
they're not going to jump you in and be like you're welcome. Be
upset. They're probably gonna have like armored vehicles following up. I said,
bro, why are we out here? We are? I'm picturing Josh Jacob's
like hanging out on the beach ship. I'm thinking of all my friends from
the Eagles down there, like just at the bars and real. But it
doesn't sound like that kind of trip. I was looking forward to it.
I'm like, man, we're about to be it's about to be a fun
week. And they telling us all that. Okay, so they're talking to
the players about what to expect. This is the same thing that goes on
in Mexico City. They don't usually leave their hotel rooms. Because there's such
rich guys that they're targeted. They close down the roads, they have armored
vehicles. I heard. I don't know if it's true, but in Mexico
City they had snipers around to protect us. The buses came through with the
players. Did they have this kind of problem during the Olympics down there?
Okay, so this is what this is. They did. They warned everybody,
don't leave the Olympic village, stay in your spots. Then we had
that whole thing with locked Ee when he went out somewhere in Brazil and whatever
the fuck went on there. Remember when he said he broke down and at
a gas station or something and they picked him up in a cab. There
was some weird story that came out of there. But according to the Philadelphia
Inquirer, the NFL has come out and said, you'll see a stadium full
of fans wearing green of the Eagles in the green of the Packers. It's
not gangs. It's a rival soccer team that wears green, and if they
see green, they get very upset, so they don't want green in the
stadium. So it sounds like a complete I don't understand and I get it,
but I still think it's bullshit. I think that they're probably greed and
there's something going on. I see turquoise and you know those Miami colors,
and that fucking kisses me on. I see green, it turns me on.
I'm on fire man. Between the Packers and Eagles, fuck them both.
I actually couldn't pick two better teams to go there. So this is
the guy over here wearing green tay. So the NFL and others are saying
it's not a gang issue, all right, but I've heard that same thing
with Mexico City. So you're a nineteen billion dollar industry, Why how much
more do you need that you're putting your players at risk potentially. I'm the
players. I'm not going to go because I don't find me. Do whatever
you gotta do. I don't think Josh Jacobs is I mean I lie about
this, Well, there's no reason to lie. He's not gonna go on.
He was asked a question on a podcast. He's telling what he's been
told. So now he's apologizing, saying, my bad, Brazil, I
got bad information. But someone gave him that information, and it sounds like
someone with authority that He goes further to say he's gonna wear black and white
because those are the colors of the team that everybody seems to accept down there.
So that when they you know, and they don't think they can probably
leave the hotel. They put one team in black and they're a team and
white. I don't know, I know, actually kind of cool. Actually
that soccer is a rough sport. Let me tell you well, the Cowboys
used to play a preseason game in Mexico City every year. Yeah he stopped,
and I don't know why, but they stopped. It was back in
the nineties, right, and it was a great way to expand, and
it made sense. It's a bordering country. Why wouldn't we write one hundred
thousand people for a preseason game. Now they're talking about Mexico City getting a
game here in the near future, and it would probably Dallas because they have
a huge fan base there a game as a regular a regular season game there.
So what happens as a season ticket holder when your team goes overseas?
Do you get anything in the tickets are a little less because used to go
to Toronto. They yeah, take that game, okay, pay for but
you're paying for preseason, which is ridiculous. That's the worst part. You're
not paying for the eight regular season games you have to play pay for the
preseason as well, which who the hell's paying for preseason ticket? Nobody?
No, I mean they're just like, what do they charge you less for
preseason? They don't same thing fee? Holy shit, I didn't know that.
What all the money? It's a greedy, greedy league. Okay,
So that's what I'm saying. Is it getting so greedy because to your point
there, it's becoming cost prohibitive to go to the games. Once this new
stadium opens in Buffalo, I think, and you talk about Dallas, you
your season ticket holder there, I would think a lot of the people that
are there are usually guest of a corporation, A lot of them. Yeah.
Yeah, there's a lot of money in Texas, a lot of oil,
Yes, there is. So you know, it used to be I
shouldn't say used to be. I only went to one game in the old
stadium, but it was amazing. The old stadium was loud, people screaming
and cheering like like Buffalo. Yep. Now you go there and it's a
lot less. You can tell these people just have a lot of money.
They're there to watch the game, but they're also doing business and stuff like
that. I mean, I told you the first time everyone on a tour
in two thousand and nine, they had PlayStation three's in the suites for kids
to play in case they got bored during the game. To me, that's
just totally wrong. So now you're gonna put this this fee for these tickets.
And I know Greg disagrees, but you're gonna put these fee on these
tickets in Buffalo. People aren't gonna be able ford it. Well, that's
what I really believe that. I mean, you're talking, let's say the
old rust belt sort of in a way, right, and this is it
was built on the blue collar fan. Yes, so what we're making it
cost prohibitive. Then you look at what's going on with the networks, right,
So it used to be network television. Fox gets involved, and now
it goes to a cable. Now you've got ESPN. Now we've gone so
far as you've got to have Prime to see games on Thursday night. And
I'm pretty sure Peacock is guaranteed a January playoff, and Netflix and Netflix is
Netflix scar two games on Christmas Okay, so the two games on Christmas on
Netflix. So now in addition to whatever you have, you've got to have
those services to see it. I don't know if that helps you. You
hope it does, but does it help you on Christmas Day? I don't
think so. Okay, that's one of them. Just it. We gotta
now, we gotta purchase it because if we're not showing it, people are
going to say, what the hell? Right, So we're gonna have to
purchase it. It'll be limited to how many TVs. You know, you're
gonna put it on a few TVs, but we're gonna have to purchase it.
I think you can do three TVs per account if I remember right,
I know that's how it is with Peacock. So they allow you three TVs
per account and that's it. So if you want more on three TVs,
you got to buy another service. Holy shit, that's crazy. But is
it great or is it just goodal making these owners money? Well, it's
it feels his job. He's doing his job. That I mean, to
your point much doing his job. He's doing his job. But my point
is what happens at some point? Are people going to go, well,
I'm not buying Peacock and now it's one less game I'm watching, and I
don't you know what I mean, Are we starting to erode the fan Will
that start to erode the fan base? But because it is creepy and everybody
says, oh, well if they do this, and they've done this,
this, this, that's this and this, and everybody's still there, it
is. But it feels like they have a flippant attitude towards the fan.
It just it does. It feels a little bit like they have a flippant
attitude towards the fan. Well, I mean, it's a business at the
end of the day, it is, you know, and they're there to
make as much money as possible, and we can. We could sit here
and call greed all day long, but it seems like it's good business because
people aren't not going to the games right now at the ticket prices. You
know. I saw a meme yesterday and Facebook that said I would do anything
I could possibly right now to watch the two worst teams in the NFL play
today because there's nothing else to watch. That's how big the NFL is.
Yeah, people would sit there and watch the two worst teams. They'd watch
you know, the Philadelphia Eagles. They did. They watched that Redskins Panthers
game on Amazon. Yeah, I would like to know. And you'll probably
never get this as the stats from the Bills playoff game that was on Peacock,
Like, I don't know. I just remember seeing things where one person
wrote so far they put this on x so for the first time in more
than a decade, I don't have access to a live NFL game. That's
how disinterest starts at NFL. And that's what I do wonder. I'm not
saying that it's gonna happen overnight. We're all big fans, We're gonna all
be sucked back in. You know. It's like the abuse of whatever relationship
you have with somebody and then there it goes. But they're making it harder
for you to be able to watch. They're making it harder for people to
be able to go to the games. And then on top of that,
this is the thing. I mean, it's a weakness. I think if
the NFL continues, and it's sort of this myth that their officials have improved
as the players have improved, and I don't think that's true. Okay,
I think the players have improved tremendously, I don't. I think one of
the most egregious things that we saw and it was with your team against the
line last year, and you even said that was a bad call, and
then they what they do is it was a guy who was going in as
an eligible receiver and we saw him, he touched him right, and then
they said they didn't see it. So then almost add insult to injury,
the NFL puts out a video to every league as to how players need to
say they're eligible. It's like they'll never admit their mistake. But here's the
thing. You've got players who are working out year round, giving us a
more entertaining product than we've ever had. So that'll probably that helps. Right,
We've got Josh Allen, don't tell me Justin Herbert isn't going to turn
into something. And maybe Jordan Love as well, right as they as these
teams get better. Jordan Love seemed to I don't know what happened last year
in the mid season on he seemed to be pretty damn good. Either he
got it or yet lucky. We'll find out. Oh yeah, exactly.
So you look at all that and then you go but you've got part time
refs who are not young and in shape. Right, you got an eighteen
billion dollar business. You can't pay your full time because of what you don't
want to pay their benefits and everything. I don't know. Here's what I
would say if they're going to and it's funny that you're here to hear this
today only because you work with guys who are coming back from service. If
the NFL wants to put their money where their mouth is and talk all this
stuff about being supportive of the armed services, then let's take guys who are
leaving the Armed services that are young, disciplined, and in shape and make
them fucking refs. That's a great idea. Why not. They're young,
in shape and disciplined guys they're coming out of probably I mean not, And
nobody at this table is that disciplined today, right. I don't know if
anybody served, but I just know that. You know that's so you're taking
that, put that in there, a code of honor, all that stuff.
You think they're going to make a bad cround, Why don't they do
that? And doctors out there on us, they flying on Saturday, they
go to the game and they fly home Sunday night, and they're drinking and
partying and hanging out, and then they're going to do the game Monday.
One guy's back on the stand, you know, in a trial, and
Sunday he just threw a pass interference call that costs the Bills a game exactly,
right, or Dallas or whoever. And I just I go, why
are we doing this if you're an eighteen dollars nineteen billion? Right, let's
say that's what it was for twenty twenty three, All right, twenty three
million, twenty three million viewers for the Bill's playoff came on Peacock. So
I wonder what a normal playoff game that was about that average? Really,
so it didn't matter. Well, look I got Peacock, and I only
got it for that and I forgot I have it, and it's yeah,
it doesn't matter. Yeah, that's how they get you. Yeah, just
automatically renews, and that's what's going to happen. So now we've got and
I have Prime. Well, I saw the other day. I think the
breakdown was six hundred and eighty dollars if you wanted to watch every game in
the NFL this year, So you have to get the direct TV pat well,
now the Amazon package for you guys at home, you have to buy
that. Wait what who has Directivty just has a Thursday Night Yes, yeah,
yeah, okay, No, who got y YouTube? YouTube? Got
that? So you have that? Then you got to Peacock, you got
Netflix, you got Hulu's getting a game. Hulu's getting a game, Whu's
getting a game this year too, and one other one Jesus cancel. So
yes, you wanted to get the whole you know directors, you know the
package so you can see the Sunday games, any weekday games. It was
like six hundred yeah. And then how about this and you'll know this.
They can flex games. Yeah, and now, but what if you're you
know, I'm playing my one o'clock Sunday a month in advance, and all
of a sudden they flex it to I don't know, Sunday night Primetime eight
o'clock, because it's a bigger up my whole next week exactly you're going to
the exactly that. And now they're getting really greedy because the Christmas game this
year, what is it? Is it a Wednesday this year? I forget
now, but they got Wednesday games this year so now you got Wednesday night,
Thursday night, a Friday night game. I think again, this year
you got a couple of Saturdays, you got Sunday. These guys don't get
the rest, and you're you know, they have to have a minimum.
I think of six days in between games or five games? What is it
Sunday to Thursday? What are five days? Yea, So now they're gonna
say, okay, well get him a bye week the week before, But
then they got to play on Wednesdays, so their bye week is really instead
of thirteen days, is more like ten days. And I'll say you this
taking a huge beating. Here's why I think they have to be careful with
the ref thing. I didn't say this before. They're getting deeper and deeper
in with the gambling. Yeah. And if you all of a sudden the
game goes because of an errant call that cost gamblers tons of money. You
don't think that that could fuck up your whole I think cos fuck up your
whole sitution. Yes, and that when it was illegal now legal. I
mean the guys in baseball just got suspended for life. He was a nobody,
but he be He probably made more money betting on those games, and
he didn't in the minors. Yeah, I'm sure. I'm sure that's true.
Yeah, because I think the miners are making right. You can't tell
me that that umpire that just retired wasn't fixing games the way he was calm
pitches and striking. Yes, he was way out of it. I mean
way off. He was always way off. That's the worst part. So
he didn't look Somebody sent me today, uh agel Hernandez, miss call,
miss call. They I just think they have to get the officiating right as
they get deeper in with the game. I don't care what it costs you,
because you have to get it right. Man. I never thought of
that idea. That's a great idea. With the well, I was just
I have too much time. I uh no, but I was really thinking
about it. I go, how do you fix that? That wasn't the
only reason it stood out to me because you were coming in. You're a
Dallas fan. That was the Lions game. That was the biggest missed call
I thought in the in the NFL last year. There was two miss calls
in that game. Is the worst part. Say one against Detroit, one
against Day They got called for tripping when he actually got a tripped by the
guy. It wasn't him doing the tripping, right, There was two really
blatant miss call I mean badly miscas. So if you get a series of
questionable calls that affect the outcome of games, and it's going to challenge the
integrity of the game, and people start saying fix, I think that really
starts to hurt. It's on Facebook every Sunday night, Tom but the NFL's
fixed every Sunday night. Just just go through. I'm just saying, like
to keep it to somewhat, But I wish that someone would do that with
the with army guys coming back, Well, you got young in shape guys
coming back, you guarantee them a job out in the military exactly. Military
is probably picking up their benefits. Yea. Why it's a great So it's
almost like a win win. The biggest hero in the world come on,
and we would get I think guys who would make better calls overall. You
know, all right, there you go. Sorry, a lot of thought
on that today. Somebody asked Matt when we come back. Somebody got fired
from a restaurant for putting something out about the restaurant on TikTok that went out,
But what was really going on is uh, well it goes back to
the NFL and and uh fantasy football. But we will get to all that
next. But first, Connors and first, because when life throws you a

snapped headphones over the year, like into my nose, into my eye,
like smack, chip my tooth, not chip, but knock my tooth on
a microphone, its uh, the Stones Angry. I didn't even realize what
I was playing. I'm going to see the Stones in Cleveland with my brother
this weekend. Very excited about Wow. Yeah you see me tag you in
that. My buddy and Brian in Florida was at a Stones concert and I
was packed, and he said it was one of the greatest concertserve And I
said, I tagged you and I said, Bill, just fucking do it.
Oh, I don't even think I saw that. Oh, I gotta
go back and look. I have to pull it up. I'll go back
and look. Yeah, the guy. But then we were talking off Mike
about just shit that's going on, and can you say that story? Do
you want to say that story? You don't have to really, Okay,
I got you. That's why I'm asking her. But I'm just like,
we we hear these things that are happening around are area, and you wonder,
like, you know, where does it stop? Because I always said
I think the suburbs go as the city goes, Right, You don't want
to lose the city, and I feel like, slowly we I don't know
what's happening. There's a lot, there's a lot, and it seems like
people know how to play a system and stuff. What is the bTB rule
for social media stuff? Do you have one for employees? We always kind
of we did back in the day. I don't know if Connie has put
one in place. I think there is one that basically you can't post anything
negative. Okay. So some woman works at a restaurant in North Carolina and
supposedly a higher end restaurant, very identifiable because there's a fountain inside the restaurant,
right, So she did this on social media on TikTok Okay, So
I'm not supposed to be making two stops at work, but this calls for
it. I work at a nice restaurant in Charlotte, and he asked to
see what just came in the door. So she clips the camera round and
there's a young guy that's the fountain that you can hear, sitting with a
blow up doll in a dress, having a meal. Okay, so they
fired her a bit. He's sitting at the table with a blow up he's
sitting at the table with a blow up doll. Blow up doll. They
let this person in with a blow up Okay, great question. I don't
have an answer. They deserve to get posted on Facebook. See now I
went, I don't think Matt's firing somebody for that. Way I can get
laugh out of it. Right. Well, then some reporter in North Carolina
sees on the guy post his own TikTok on a bad date and he has
to think he lost a fantasy football bet, he was the loser of his
league, and he had to go to dinner at this nice restaurant with a
blow That's a great, that's just funny. It's funny. bTB, you
could do that end restaurant. That's tough, man. Somebody did it.
You know somebody did a b TV we' I'll just be laughing about it,
and of course telling the customers you don't don't see your kids over that,
sit you over here. That's a great, that's a great. Oh man,
that's awesome. Isn't that great? Now? Have you heard of like
fantasy football punishments for losing a league that are along those lines? Yeah,
nothing like that though. That's that's good. Yeah, I lost. We
did when I was on radio. We did the high school fantasy football.
So if you had a son and a nephew or cousin whatever, you could
call up and we would take running backs and all this, and we put
our team together and then somebody smarter than me will go through and score the
points. And I lost. So we had to do a bud wah photo
and somebody came in and did me in awe full makeup. I had my
shirt off, I had a feather boa, I had like little hot pants
on, and somewhere those pictures exist, but I love that. That made
me laugh so hard. And the guy put his on TikTok, I go,
why would you fire this girl over there? And it's so stupid it
and by the way, she's shooting from a far distance, way over there,
far distance. But then, of course, Mark, because you were
here, I had a what that's definitely a corporate restaurant had to be Yeah,
I was thinking the same thing had to be. No mom of Pap
is firing somebody for that, I would hope. Anyways, no, even
corporate I could see suspended or maybe but fired her. So what happens with
like corporate restaurants. You're talking about things like, let's say, if it's
a high end one of those steakhouses, Morton's or something like that, that
would be corporate. Now yeah, yeah, where something more local, like
a chop out whatever it's going to be. Yeah, I'd rather see.
That's the thing is I always would say in this town, don't go to
the chains. It's amazing that people will go to a chain. And I
understand when you're on the road and you don't know and you want to go.
I know what I'm going to get here, and I've got my kids,
especially if you're traveling with your family, you know that. But if
you live here, there are so many fans fantastic restaurants. Jesus Christ,
dude, you should be like a restaurant reviewer because I see, like you
and Natalie go out. You talk about the service, you talk about the
food, you give it, But there are so many local Why Why are
it's you know me, good Italian restaurants are in this city and people go
to Olive Garden. Why yeah, I don't And I get it it's local
people working there, But that money's all even rosters not staying in Ruster other
than the people working there. All those profits are going somewhere else. The
tax money is going somewhere else. What, in your opinion, is the
best Italian in the area. Texas road host Garden, I Dave will agree
with man, there's a because there there's a couple on the west side.
Aren't there that a really good Italian restaurant? Restaurant? Is it really okay?
Uh So I did see this other article mark about introducing your your sex
style to your partner for people who have at it, and I go,
this can't be real, and it did. It says what happens This was
the title of the article, what happens when you introduce a sex doll into
your relationship? What the hell is that to do with me? I just
think anything weird that like that. I always automatically think to you, I
just I just do mean when you carry on the conversation for the sex doll,
I think you do. Yeah. I realized it, like it's weird.
In the first paragraph as I'm reading, I go, this is weird.
And I don't know anybody who would be happy with this. I don't
know anybody who would admit to this bringing it in. I can't imagine like
what how would that? But it would be like a practice threesome, practice
the King Club. Because that's too much for me, that's too much for
you. We did get more of your kink, though, the least.
Would you watch a girl with a sex doll? No? No, okay,
he's not a disappointment. He's not He's not a disappointment to his family.
That's what we learned last week. People were because I I, how
would you respond if if some if all of a sudden, let's say,
somebody sleeps with like a sex style or a pillow that has a face on
it. I told you about the sheep? What we had a badge to
party. Yeah, and and we had a blown up sheeting in my living
in my living room and we were all gone and one of one of the
well my buddy's brothers was there and we walked in. He was fucking the
sheep for real. Yeah. I was never I mean I was never more
devastated in my whole entire life. That says a lot too. He's seen
a lot, He's done a lot. There had to be every time you
saw that guy after that, it had to be still still, It's just
like, what did he just keep going. You walked in, Hey,
fellas done here in a minute. He stopped and pretended he had he had
what? He took his hands off of the ship, still moving around.
That's like, wow, that would be weird. Have you ever walked in
on anyone? I know you've been walked in on. Well, you talked
about people coming home and the big girl that broke the chair and things like
that. But have you ever walked in on somebody pleasuring themselves at all?
And they have to try to fake it? I mean, can you I
think you can you tap anything from a freaking sheep out? No? I
cannot. No matter what I walk into now won't even seem bad. No,
that is true. Man. Did you see see this person today?
Is there a chance that you would see him? You turn a nile?
I I said no, No, I saw him last summer at a party.
Okay, did he say anything? Well, I'm good friends with his
brother. What did you say, Matt, I'm good friends with his brother
and sister. So okay, all right, I guess that would be That's
a weird one. Bro. He's not embarrassed by it either. I don't
even think he gives a ship. No, I think at some point you
just kind of go, well, it was a bad moment. Chalk it
up to that move on. We've all had bad moments. I'm sure he's
done it again. I don't understand the whole doll thing. It's a whole
big business. Now we don't get a big business and their lifelike and they
talk no, no, Well I think now they're starting to be how was
that show on HBO? Build them for like ten thousand dollars? How the
fuck do you clean it out? Yes? And then you gotta go,
you gotta clean it out. I don't talk. Yeah, I'll pay extra
fight out to talk hardast say what I wanted to say exactly. Yeah,
but then you gotta clean this thing, don't you. I would think,
oh, just wash her safe, and then they say it was, oh,
by the way, forgot. We got a party coming up. We're
having a pure romance party. Pure romance is a like I guess. Yeah.
It used to be the old tupper party your mom would go to years
ago. Now it's a sexpo where I don't know what it was mom.
Why can't I go to the tumperware party? But now they have a sex
toy party. So we I don't know how it came up. Laura was
in here, that's why I came up and she and we started talking about
this and oh, it probably was, and we called this woman. She's
agreed to do a party. We're going to do the podcast from Laura's house
at the end of June. You guys should come. This is fantastic.
It's a buildou party. Were awesome, so you can come and buy stuff
from Pure Romance and we'll do the podcast there as well. I want to
hopefully get this woman on beforehand to let her do her pitch and stuff,
because I think she's going to do the party and we'll do the podcast while
the party is going on sort of. But they also they also sell like
shaving cream, and it's mostly into a bunch of stuff. Now it used
to be only products too. Yeah they do now, but they used to
only be women. They wouldn't allow guys at these parties, and I think
a lot of times and she brought up a good point, like, you
know, it could be you can get some creepy yeah, you get some
creepers stuff. But so then they started couples and stuff, so she I
think she was cool with us as far as I know. Said. One
of their new big things is the sleeve mark that fits over your penis,
so it makes it a little longer and a little wider. I should have
taken that job and free. I should have taken that job. It's just
thinking the same thing. I should show World, show World. Yeah,
you know what, I have a lot of time. No, don't,
don't be great working in show World now in a job that I have.
Now, No, you couldn't. You couldn't do both. But because they
would get upset if they found out. Oh yeah, they don't want to
do that. But that would have been interesting. You would have been some
very interesting. You'd be back on working in places like we're at the liquor
store. You don't deal with that one percent. I don't want to.
That area has gone one hundred percent. But June twenty seventh, are we
locked in on that date? I believe that is the date. Yeah,
Thursday and uh schools my first day of vacation of two week vacation. Is
it really okay? Well, then then we have to kick it off the
right way and maybe you get a gift for the loved one in your life.
Maybe I will you can bring her. Yeah, you can. If
if she's comfortable, she might be more comfortable than Mark. Something got very
quiet over there, suddenly got very quiet. I don't want to, so
I keep pushed. I feel a hot button. Okay, alright, well
maybe she will more than once if you get the right toy. I have
always possible. Maybe it's always possible. All right, we'll take a moment.
Mark. Since last week we played name that tune, name that TV
theme song, and you kick my ass, We're gonna try again. Your
name is your buzzer, so you just say your name once you think you
recognize the movie theme. Okay, more song from a movie or song from
a movie or song from the movie. Yeah, okay, all right.
We will get to all that next. But first, Leo's has your sweet
tooth covered. You gotta try Leo's own polish crumb loaf. It's a buttery
sweet bread with golden raisins and a strusal topping, perfect for breakfast, as
a snack or a dessert. Plus, remember, Leo's has everything for takeout,
dinner, or lunch every day. Stop heating up the kitchen and cooking,
Just head to Leo's for takeout instead. What's the best thing about Leo's
say it with me? Everything on deskbats Drive in East Rochester open every day,
please soap been the doll? Nothing is dear friend. We've been here
before, pacing these halls, trying to talk over the side. How the
hell do they get ai and like put a young Billy Joel in the video?
Isn't that a cool video? It's a great video. It's a great
video. I mean, he has really a song in thirty years and even
this is a fantastic song. I think it's a great Well, it's such
a relatable song for so many people. You know, this is that was
always his music though his music was always relatable. Yeah, here's another one.
He was he was he almost committed, He committed to tried to commit
suicide. Really yeah, I knew he was drinking a lot. I mean
when he was a kid. Oh, I didn't know that he had a
really you know, he had a hard time. Really Yeah, where did
you? I I don't know why I didn't. You're only human is about
that? Yeah? And you're yeah, yeah that's kind of about Oh I
gotta go back and listen to that. Yeah. Wow, Yeah, geez,
I didn't know, there's so much death. I didn't realize all the
ship you had lived through. Oh you know something, right, it's something
to talk about. Well, I mean it's very uplifting. Yeah. What
I'm saying is like I really didn't I didn't know that all this stuff that
you you lived through, it was this all. I mean, this is
years. Yeah, but it had to be after I knew you from Yeah
it was yeah, yeah, it was at the radio. Yeah. Yeah,
yeah, a really tough time. I had a tough time in for
a while. But yeah, the rooms are really nice. They're really are
accommodating when they put you actually in the place. In the place. Yeah
it's an empty room with a bed with with nothing on it. Oh that's
nice because you can't you know, yeah, because everything that everything could be.
Yeah, yeah I heard that there was I've even heard of people who
were learning about how they could shove a spoon up their nose and break a
the sinus cavity. Man. Right, So there's all kinds. I mean,
if you really wanted to do something, it sounds awful and painful.
There's nothing you can do there, there's nothing to do. No, so
they try to strip everything away, right, to try to make you appreciate
everything in life, not even take a walk, not necessarily the one everything
there could kill you. You used to do something to yourself. Do you
slowly get privileges back? You don't? Please? Sucked? I had to
freaking talk my way out to get the hell out of there. So was
there any afterwards, any therapist that helped you at all? Yeah, in
a good way. I had an uh you know, I had a shrink
and then a counselor, And like I said, the shrink always he's the
one that gives the money. He's the one. Yeah, it does all
the mess, and the counselor is the one that actually talks to Is there
a social worker? No? No, okay, that's a day. You
should be one of those. He should be. Seriously, you're doing more
work than probably most of them, right, I go to him, but
probably that's all he's got long days. Now, you want quadruple is work?
No, I'm just saying, like that way you could probably get something.
I don't know. I just feel like you would get more. I
would be totally on board. Yeah, I mean I really would. I
mean I think you like helping people. I love it. I really do.
I hate seeing people struggle struggle, right, but if I can do
something to help. I mean, Marcus had some bad times. He hasn't
come to me, but I've reached out to him, and Dave reached out
to me that. Well, I'll be honest, I just started going to
see somebody today. Yeah, first time in a long time. Its just
some ship that was going on, and like, I gotta I gotta figure
this out. Is it a shrink or is it a counselor? Uh uh
no, probably shrink. It's somebody problem. The problem I don't link with
shrinks is they don't give a ship. Yeah, oh no, this isn't
that. Then this would be more of a counselor like yeah, yeah,
because I I talked about just a bunch of things that, yeah, some
stuff that I need to I need to get to the root of it.
Like I'm I'm I'm seeing patterns in my life, repeating something that happened,
and I go, I did the same thing, different you know, same
story, different players. I mean, how do I prevent that from happening?
And now everything is now, you know, things are fixed and stuff.
Now I have new things coming up. Yeah, I have so you
know social anxiety. I don't like to go places anymore. Really, I
don't know. I don't I go out during mister social who was standing out
there with soldier sweatshirts white and Howard Stern listeners. Years ago going out Saturday
night was like it was like a huge deal. I don't really out to
night anymore. I don't do any of that stuff anymore. And you know,
my paranoia about you know, the job and stuff like that, stuff
that I put in my head that probably isn't even there. I think.
I think you're right. So now I have new things. You know.
Yeah, you don't talk to anybody. I heard Dave has a few minutes
because Tuesdays in the morning because it isn't a bad probably because it isn't a
bad thing. No, it's not a bad thing because little things that all
does is accumulate. You should know. But talk to somebody to just work
it out. Because yeah, here's why I'm gonna tell you. I'm gonna
tell you what I saw. You said to me that you thought people were
at the job weren't so keen on your putting it mild, but yes,
And I said, I think that's in your head, that's what everybody says.
Yes, I think that's in your head. I think you're wrong.
They love you. And no, here's here's the thing we have to learn.
I've to learn this is that any job I've ever had or I ever
gone to, it always turned into drama because then you start hanging with people,
you start doing something that's not gonna happen here. Man, that's true.
That will never happen here. No, I won't. That won't happen
because I actually have control of that. Yeah. But instead I'm going I'm
going, oh my god, God, I wanted to you know, I
want to be social. I want to be you know, stuff like that.
But at the same time, this is a good thing. Just like
my roommates. I have two roommates. I don't even know the guys.
We've lived together for four years. Don't hang out with them, don't know.
I don't even know their last names. There's no drama at the house.
But we're all buddies. Then that's where ship starts going down and stuff
like that. You get mixed right up in it exactly, and it does
not. I don't mean that the bad. No, it doesn't happen anymore.
No, that's why you're very boring. I'm very boring. I'm very
boring. I'm gonna lose my mondays. No, you're not. He doesn't
do anything. You're not. That's not gonna happen, not at all.

Song of the South Mouth. Yeah, I saw the movie like fifty
years ago. Okay, give me an excuse because you're not happy that you
loved You're down one. Yeah, here we go. Anybody can yell in,
anybody, Dave, Mike Matt, Here we go. Oh, oh,
Titanic, Mark Titanic to do? I hate this fucking movie? Why

She let him die because she wouldn't move over on the doors. All these
girls like this movie. The girl is a fucking horror. I love this
rock. I love this. I love this. Yeah. I was never
a big I never thought it was a great movie. Movie sucked. Yeah,
I mean I thought it was an interesting historical perspective, like you'd always
heard that the band went down with the ship. They played right as they
you know, right, And then we were all of that age at that
time where we had to spend the three hours to try to get laid to
get through the movie. He's right. That's how I think. I saw
this movie two or three times in a week. And I will admit that,
really, I will admit I love seeing people try to reenact the spit
scene on the front of a boat once in a while when they're drunk and
people it's always a fat ship. Yeah, it's gonna fall off. You
really hated this movie. Oh, I hate this movie. It's on all
the time. I'm gonna tell you. I'm gonna tell you it's funny.
When we drove to Nashville last time for the Bills game, I drove around
to my friends and their girls, and they love the movie. Of course
they're thirty eight, thirty nine years old. So we argue from for three
hours. We argued from Cleveland to Louisville, if I remember correctly, And
they almost kicked it out, but they were gonna leave me at the gas
station because we thought about those because they totally they saw it totally different than
that. How they see it a love story, a love story. But
what so your biggest thing is at the end when no, I mean,
come on, I mean, let's be honest, all right. Her fiance
was a jack, so I do we know that? Yes, But all
of a sudden, she freaking starts banging some guy that she's known for three
hours. Okay, yeah, Then what pisses me off is she shows up
when she's ninety years old, happening right now, and what and all of
a sudden, only think she cares more about this fucking guy she knew for
a day than her husband she was with for fifty sixty years, grandkids,
great grandkids, and all she cared about was this fucking louser. She loved
them. That was the love of her life. She let go one day.
Rethink the advertising. Next year, we're gonna lose a lot of listeners.

going through a divorce and moving out of their house and opened up a shoe
box that they forgot about and there was ten grand in there because they just
threw cash in there all the time. Yeah. Uh that's the way it
