1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:05,679
Win your old career gives you lemons
throwing some ice mix in some vodka.

00:00:06,040 --> 00:00:11,560

00:00:30,399 --> 00:00:34,000
Well, hello and welcome. Thanks

5
00:00:34,600 --> 00:00:37,240

9
00:00:50,840 --> 00:00:57,119
that. We'll also meet and talk
to Natosha Stringham, who, according to

10
00:00:57,159 --> 00:01:00,359
the Times of Wayne County, was
arrested for promote owning a juvenile fight.

11
00:01:00,920 --> 00:01:03,879
That's the headline. So like cock
fighting for teenagers. I don't know,

12
00:01:04,239 --> 00:01:08,280
juvenile fight. And I'm going to
take a very bold statement here, but

13
00:01:08,719 --> 00:01:12,120
all the three one five shit that
you hear on local media for those that

14
00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:18,159
you don't don't know, this was
started by me nineteen. We did that

15
00:01:18,200 --> 00:01:19,799
a lot of time, I know, but and I will explain a little

16
00:01:19,799 --> 00:01:25,400
more when we talked to Natosha,
and we may talk to Jennifer Lukey about

17
00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:27,480
some things that are happening in the
city. She's a reporter for ten NBC.

sharply dressed Wally Picone, who is

19
00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:38,840
a fourth generation tailor and the owner
of Omaris. Am I saying that right,

20
00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:42,439
former owner, former owner? Right? So your son? Yes,

21
00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:46,599
I was gonna say, Matt is
now at the Helm and the CEO,

22
00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:49,959
and I figured you you don't have
a hand in it at all. I

23
00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:53,120
do. How can you walk away? Oh you can't. That's your blood.

24
00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:59,159
But I certainly have slowed down and
um, but I still keep in

25
00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:01,239
touch with my clients. They're comfortable
working with me. Wevel up the relationship

37
00:02:45,719 --> 00:02:49,759
Thank you. Where did that come
from? That came from when I

38
00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:53,680
first started in a business. It
just kind of took off. I was

39
00:02:53,719 --> 00:02:57,879
thinking about it and I said,
I'm very passionate about what I do,

40
00:02:58,719 --> 00:03:02,680
and us passionately became a part of
that right from day one. Yeah,

41
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:08,479
and Matt has now registered that so
that it's registered. O'mearroll's name is also

42
00:03:08,599 --> 00:03:14,280
registered and o'marrow was your dad correct? Okay, and so, but he

43
00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:16,240
didn't have the store. Your dad
was a tailor for Hicky Freeman. He

44
00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:20,560
correct. He was a tailor in
Italy. In the nineteen fifty four,

45
00:03:20,879 --> 00:03:25,120
with my five older brothers, Into
and my mother, they came over from

46
00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:31,599
Italy and settled here in Rochester,
went to work for Hickey Freeman and spent

47
00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:36,879
the combined total of my mom and
dead of forty four years My dad was

48
00:03:36,919 --> 00:03:42,479
there for twenty five years, and
my mom was there for nineteen years until

49
00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:46,879
they both retired in nineteen seventy nine. My mom was there only nineteen years

50
00:03:46,919 --> 00:03:51,199
because I was born. You were
born, so you were born here first

51
00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:54,000
to be so you are a natural
citizen. Then you could be president of

52
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:59,520
the United States if you chose.
I could. I could gift I got

53
00:03:59,159 --> 00:04:02,039
to compared to Biden. I think
I might be able to do a pretty

54
00:04:02,039 --> 00:04:06,000
good that we never had. I
could, But your brothers couldn't be.

55
00:04:06,199 --> 00:04:10,439
Isn't it funny? Correct? Yeah, because they weren't born on us soil.

56
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:14,479
That that's interesting down to your brothers
still live in the area. Um,

57
00:04:14,639 --> 00:04:18,199
two of my brothers passed away.
One lives in Mexico and San Miguel

58
00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:23,560
Dellenda. Really and when three of
us live here, what does he do

59
00:04:23,639 --> 00:04:29,399
in San Miguel de Llende. He's
a retired architect and he was architect in

60
00:04:29,759 --> 00:04:31,920
Westchester County. Yeah. I grew
up down that one, and you know,

61
00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:35,160
made a career out of it and
it made a ton of money.

62
00:04:36,639 --> 00:04:43,040
He's done well, he's done well. So we're passionately this this town or

63
00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:46,160
or where he lives in Mexico on
the on the water, on the ocean.

64
00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:48,160
It's right in the middle of the
country, in the middle of the

65
00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:54,040
country, and the plateau. It's
on a high plateau. And who goes

66
00:04:54,079 --> 00:04:59,879
there. It's the most It's probably
one of the most sought after cities for

67
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:03,120
a lot of US citizens that retire. Really to move to Mexico. Why

68
00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:06,839
that? Why? Why do you
think you've gotten? You've gotten a culture.

69
00:05:06,959 --> 00:05:12,639
Yeah, there's weather. Yeah,
there's inexpensive labor. My brother down

70
00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:18,560
there built five homes that would easily
run north of a million dollars in our

71
00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:21,680
Rochester market. You think Mexican labor
is cheap in the United States, you

72
00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:27,639
should try seeing it in Mexico.
It's yeah, I don't know. But

73
00:05:27,759 --> 00:05:31,879
anyway, Um, there's a lot
of reasons why people migrated to uh sam

74
00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:35,720
after it amazing. I would have
thought more, you know, on the

75
00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:42,120
West coast somewhere stop something like that. But yeah, it's interesting. Yeah,

76
00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:45,920
I've been there once. It is
beautiful. Yeah, but I'm not

77
00:05:45,959 --> 00:05:48,959
a Mexico guy. I'd like,
you know, good old USA. I'd

78
00:05:48,959 --> 00:05:51,600
like to be home. I there's
plenty of places in the US to travel

79
00:05:51,639 --> 00:05:55,360
to see. I mean and that's
why you know. It's it's funny.

80
00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:58,759
I have a neighbors of mine who
are from Europe. You're you your family

81
00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:01,480
from Italy, I assume you speak
Italian. I do many people who if

82
00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:03,680
you live in Europe, you're going
to speak more than one language. And

83
00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:05,720
I remember a neighbor saying to me, yeah, because if we want to

84
00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:10,040
see a desert, we need to
speak a different language to go there.

85
00:06:10,079 --> 00:06:13,600
Everything is here contained within the United
States, and no question about it,

86
00:06:13,759 --> 00:06:16,439
no question. And I've had the
good fortune in my career. When I

87
00:06:16,439 --> 00:06:19,639
first started at Hicky Freeman in nineteen
seventy six, I was in the sales

88
00:06:19,639 --> 00:06:24,879
department, and we traveled all over
the country to visit with retailers that sold

89
00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:29,560
Hicky Freeman Gotcha and keep them supplied
and sold them merchandise and all of the

90
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:32,639
things related to that. And I
was able to see some spectacular things right

91
00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:36,839
here in our own USA. Yeah, And probably one of the most beautiful

92
00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:44,199
places I've ever seen in my life
is the Columbia River Gorge. Traveling from

93
00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:48,639
Yakima, Washington to Seattle, the
most spectacular and out the spectacular I had.

94
00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:53,240
My parents were teachers, so in
the summer, we would we would

95
00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:58,639
travel a lot. And my uncle
was a pilot for Delta Airlines and he

96
00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:02,399
was based in Seattle, spect So
and when I was just fifteen, somewhere

97
00:07:02,399 --> 00:07:05,800
in the mid eighties, the World's
Fair was at Vancouver, So we drove

98
00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:11,240
cross country and uh went all through
there and then up into Vancouver, but

99
00:07:11,399 --> 00:07:16,120
stayed with my uncle who lived at
the time on Bainbridge Island. Yeah,

100
00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:21,560
that's some stuff. That's some stuff
cross country. Actually at times, you

101
00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:25,480
know, because you know you're it
is gorgeous. But there are parts of

102
00:07:25,519 --> 00:07:28,399
the United States that are absolutely flat. You get to the eastern part of

103
00:07:28,399 --> 00:07:31,120
Wyoming and you are nothing for a
long time. And I even my brother

104
00:07:31,279 --> 00:07:38,360
bicycled. But the tea times in
Wyomings Mount Morans and the tea times man,

105
00:07:38,399 --> 00:07:41,360
I stood at custers, I stood
where customer made his last day.

106
00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:46,480
Yeah, and that whole area of
Montana, Wyoming, Idaho. It's gorgeous.

107
00:07:46,639 --> 00:07:49,959
It's you can't you have to experience. It is something that, honestly,

108
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:54,120
God, I don't know that you're
right, Uh that even pictures do

109
00:07:54,199 --> 00:07:58,319
it justice and and and it's pictures
are spectacular, and it doesn't no,

110
00:07:58,439 --> 00:08:03,199
and I doesn't. My uncle,
that same uncle moved to Park City,

111
00:08:03,439 --> 00:08:05,560
and I spent a summer in Park
City, skied out there. Yeah,

112
00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:09,439
and I'll tell you, the Wasatch
chain of the of the of the of

113
00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:13,040
the Rockies is unbelievable. And you
get into Lake Powell and then I went

114
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:16,800
up into Yellowstone, and I mean, you're right, it is some of

115
00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:18,720
the most beautiful country. If some
day, if I could have a house

116
00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:22,720
on a finger lake here, a
house in the mountains, I would be

117
00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:24,120
the happiest guy on the planet.
Yeah. Yeah, you sure would be

118
00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:30,439
one of the luckiest too. I
tell you that because the Rockies are breathtaking,

119
00:08:30,519 --> 00:08:31,960
you know they are. But the
country's got so many things, you

120
00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:35,320
know, it's anyway, it's a
there's a lot of places to visit.

121
00:08:35,399 --> 00:08:39,759
I have many questions to ask,
but let's start here. You come over

122
00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:43,519
here. Your parents were how old
at the time with your four brothers?

123
00:08:43,759 --> 00:08:46,120
They in their twenties? You think, no, no, no, no,

124
00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:48,039
they were they were. Let me
think I was born here. My

125
00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:52,720
mother was forty two. I was
fifty nine, so she was probably they

126
00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:56,480
were probably mid to late thirties when
they immigrated. And that's quite a bold

127
00:08:56,480 --> 00:09:00,759
thing that was family already here.
Not to mention Bill and excuse me for

128
00:09:00,799 --> 00:09:03,519
interrupting, No, imagine doing that
night. Now it's like you, yeah,

129
00:09:03,759 --> 00:09:07,399
you have children. I have three. Yeah, God blessed if you

130
00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:09,720
picked up your family, your children. That's what I'm saying, you and

131
00:09:09,759 --> 00:09:13,440
your wife speaking of, you know, having the child all your years here

132
00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:18,000
in the United States and moving to
China. This is what this is how

133
00:09:18,039 --> 00:09:20,960
I'm learned, the language learned,
the culture learned, not trying to change

134
00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:24,639
anything, just learning to be a
part of the what's what's assimilate because to

135
00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:28,320
them, like most immigrants from at
the time, the streets in the United

136
00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:31,720
States were lined with gold, and
they all wanted a piece of that.

137
00:09:31,759 --> 00:09:33,720
And they didn't want to come change
anything. They just wanted to work within

138
00:09:33,799 --> 00:09:37,879
the confines of the way things were, to make a living because they knew

139
00:09:37,879 --> 00:09:41,519
what they could do. And my
mom and dad, God rest their souls,

140
00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:43,799
they put six boys through college to
some degree or another. Of my

141
00:09:43,799 --> 00:09:48,159
brother won brothers an architect, my
brothers a pH my one brother was a

142
00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:52,080
PhD. I mean, they spent
a lot of them. So this is

143
00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:54,639
this is sort of my point for
saying that, because I imagine that.

144
00:09:54,919 --> 00:09:58,000
Imagine that and where when you're in
your thirty stuff, right, it's a

145
00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:01,639
little harder to learn language, and
you're trying to get your kids and figure

146
00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:05,559
out one of the teachers teaching them, and how can I help my I

147
00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:09,639
mean, it's a this is a
massive undertaking, and I just don't think

148
00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:13,840
it's appreciated by people who have never
had that at all. About this story,

149
00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:16,279
can I tell you a quick story
please? Now, my mother and

150
00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:22,759
father were obviously very Italian speaking.
My mom learned the English more quickly than

151
00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:26,399
my dad did, but still was
very broken English. Okay, And when

152
00:10:26,399 --> 00:10:30,000
I was young going to school,
I hated to take mom to school because

153
00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:35,360
I'd have to translate from my mom
what the teachers saying, and God forbid,

154
00:10:35,399 --> 00:10:39,559
the teacher would say something like he
did something in class or something at

155
00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:50,120
the back of that in front of
everybody out I had to translate translate.

156
00:10:52,639 --> 00:10:56,600
Such a helpful boy in the cafeterialize
it's a good YoY, I mean straight,

157
00:10:58,879 --> 00:11:01,559
that's very funny. But so what
made you follow in the in the

158
00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:07,200
footsteps? Because as you said,
clearly, your parents didn't expect anybody to

159
00:11:07,279 --> 00:11:09,600
become a tailor, so to speak. And go in there footsteps. Right,

160
00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:11,559
you have a brother's a PhD.
And this. But but you,

161
00:11:11,879 --> 00:11:15,519
I'm looking at you. You got
a sense of fashion like I haven't seen

162
00:11:15,639 --> 00:11:18,360
the time. Well, that's funny
you should say that because in Italy the

163
00:11:18,399 --> 00:11:26,399
culture is you pass on your family
trade from generation to generation. So if

164
00:11:26,399 --> 00:11:28,759
you were a butcher, then generally
speaking, your kids become butchers, their

165
00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:33,840
kids become butchers, or your tailor
their kids become to that. But my

166
00:11:33,919 --> 00:11:39,759
parents always taught us that the sewing
needle is very heavy. Yeah, and

167
00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:45,000
the last thing you want to do
is so so get your ass in school,

168
00:11:45,039 --> 00:11:46,639
Go get an education, Go get
to college degree, go get a

169
00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:50,639
series, be a doctor. They
forced this into our brain since I could

170
00:11:50,879 --> 00:11:56,279
comprehend and a little in a way, it's nice. It's independence for you

171
00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:58,080
guys. Right. But the beautiful
thing is this, here's the beautiful thing.

172
00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:01,360
So all my brothers have become professionals, you know, one respect or

173
00:12:01,399 --> 00:12:07,360
another, including myself, and I
had this opportunity to go see, I

174
00:12:07,399 --> 00:12:09,600
was working at a guest day,
I was going to schools working at a

175
00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:13,639
guest day. We're gonna boutique,
you know, still loving clothing. In

176
00:12:13,639 --> 00:12:16,559
fact, they called me Hollywood in
high school because I was even beck in

177
00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:20,240
high say addressed, I see it. And my brother was working at Hicky

178
00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:24,320
Freeman at the time in the sales
department and came to me one day and

179
00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:26,720
said they were higher in and I
left and I said, yeah, tell

180
00:12:26,759 --> 00:12:28,799
your buss if he pays me one
hundred grand a year, I'll start with

181
00:12:28,879 --> 00:12:31,240
him tomorrow. And so in a
couple of days later he came back.

182
00:12:31,279 --> 00:12:35,519
He says, they want to interview
you. I said, okay, I'm

183
00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:37,360
twenty years old, iman, you
know I'm green behind years. I'm still

184
00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:41,919
don't know what I don't know,
Okay. So I went in and a

185
00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:45,440
long story short, I you know, they offered me the job seventy five

186
00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:48,919
hundred dollars a year. I might
end like some big, big wages at

187
00:12:48,919 --> 00:12:52,399
that time. Break that down to
an hour. And I said, I'll

188
00:12:52,399 --> 00:12:56,840
give it six months. And I'm
still giving it six months forty seven years

189
00:12:56,919 --> 00:13:01,320
later. This year it will be
forty seven years. I celebrate in this

190
00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:05,759
business, and I don't regret one
minute of it because I learned it.

191
00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:09,200
I tried to learn it as best
I can, from different sources, from

192
00:13:09,240 --> 00:13:13,720
different media, from different people,
from different organizations. I just observed this.

193
00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:16,720
Who would you say then I had
the biggest influence on you when it

194
00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:22,240
comes to like fashion, and I
mean, you know it's I always appreciate.

195
00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:24,240
And I know this sounds a little
weird, but I like the fact

196
00:13:24,279 --> 00:13:28,320
that the glasses and the jacket and
you know what I'm saying. I'm always

197
00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:31,720
a guy who I noticed when the
shoe and the sock need a mask.

198
00:13:31,879 --> 00:13:35,080
You know, you know yeah this
yeah, yeah, what I'm saying like

199
00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:39,039
it's an extension, like those were
the things that I was subtly taught.

200
00:13:39,039 --> 00:13:43,240
I mean, I come from an
Irish family. Now I'm a couple of

201
00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:46,759
generations down, but about ninety nine
Irish. The other one percent is whoever

202
00:13:46,759 --> 00:13:50,200
invaded Ireland. I still have family
over there and stuff. But my grandfather

203
00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:52,799
would put a suit on to go
to the mailbox, you know, I

204
00:13:52,879 --> 00:13:54,919
mean that was just how they were. It was different then, yes,

205
00:13:56,000 --> 00:14:01,240
but I mean but I've always appreciated
that. I really true. That's my

206
00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:03,440
father used to wear a tight Sunday
dinner. Yeah, and you know it

207
00:14:03,519 --> 00:14:09,679
was slabber and maccaroni sauce all over
the place. But they were you know,

208
00:14:09,799 --> 00:14:13,639
they they would always dress, and
I learned it and I became passion

209
00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:16,919
That's where dressed passionately becomes because it's
so congruent with who I was and who

210
00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:20,879
I am in clothing. You know, I'm very passionate about club. I

211
00:14:20,159 --> 00:14:24,159
love the every aspect of it.
I've learned a lot of different things.

212
00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:26,519
I've learned things that would bore people
to tears, but I mean it's just

213
00:14:26,960 --> 00:14:31,039
little bits and pieces. It's those
details. Let me just say, you

214
00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:35,480
know, I gotta I gotta give
the Italians some love here because I'm a

215
00:14:35,519 --> 00:14:39,559
big fan of imports cars. And
when I look, I mean, and

216
00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:45,200
I'll ask you this, when I
look at Ferrari. You know, Ferrari,

217
00:14:45,759 --> 00:14:48,200
Enzo was such an asshole. He's
responsible for two other car makers,

218
00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:52,240
Lamborghini and there's another one that I
slipped my mind at the moment, but

219
00:14:52,519 --> 00:14:54,720
you know, the one went and
said I could build a better clutch,

220
00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:58,320
and he kicked them out until Lamborghini
went from tractor to cars. And there's

221
00:14:58,360 --> 00:15:01,879
another great car. But that Ferrari
is a piece of art. Do you

222
00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:05,799
look at yourself as an artist when
you're putting together clothes or fitting somebody for

223
00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:09,399
club? I mean that that really
is what it is. Well, no,

224
00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:11,200
I actually don't you know. I'm
a helper, I'm a I'm a

225
00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:13,879
gopher. I'm I'm the guy.
I just happened to know it. I

226
00:15:15,039 --> 00:15:16,919
see an artist. I just I
just happened to know it. So you

227
00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:20,360
mentioned the Italians, you know,
you you talk about Ferrari aesthetics. No,

228
00:15:20,519 --> 00:15:24,279
there's cards that are faster than Yes, there are, there's cars that

229
00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:28,080
are more expensive than I mean,
I mean there's a lot of that,

230
00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:33,960
but it doesn't look as good man. But it's that name, that Ferrari

231
00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:39,120
name that Monica understands for excellent passion
and go passion and glory. Everybody that's

232
00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:43,360
done anything like that, watches you
know, Rolex Raymond, Wheel, Philippity,

233
00:15:43,159 --> 00:15:50,200
jewelry Ford, whatever they put in
that whole movie about passion. Yes,

234
00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:54,919
for the work. Okay, Ferrari
told Lamborghini when they told them a

235
00:15:54,559 --> 00:16:00,120
couple of great stories. But Ferrari
told when they they asked Enzo, what

236
00:16:00,159 --> 00:16:03,000
do you think of Lamborghini, He
says it in his eric and tell you

237
00:16:03,159 --> 00:16:07,360
thought he said he should have stuck
them making tractors. Yeah, And then

238
00:16:07,399 --> 00:16:12,519
they came out with the advertising that
if you want to be somebody. You

239
00:16:12,679 --> 00:16:18,840
buy a Lamborghini. If you are
somebody, you own Ferrari. You know.

240
00:16:18,039 --> 00:16:22,080
So he was a real eric,
but it was because of his passion.

241
00:16:22,080 --> 00:16:25,000
He would not was he would not
take anything I have. Well,

242
00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:27,039
Ford went over there to try to
work with him, to try to develop

243
00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:30,120
something to win the Lamans, and
then he basically said, fuck you.

244
00:16:30,159 --> 00:16:33,480
So there's the other car. That's
the one I was taking as a Ford

245
00:16:33,519 --> 00:16:37,679
And that's why we see Ford verse
Ferrari. It's a weaker way of telling

246
00:16:37,679 --> 00:16:38,960
that story. It's a great story. It's a great movie, but it's

247
00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:44,679
not the full story. And Ford, as great as that GT is and

248
00:16:45,039 --> 00:16:49,320
till the ferraris at Lamon's year after
year in the late sixties. It ain't

249
00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:52,399
Ferrari. No, it's not.
And even now an open wheel. They

250
00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:55,919
wanted to buy the plant, they
wanted to buy Ferrari, but it ain't

251
00:16:55,919 --> 00:16:57,759
Ferrari. It's not. It's a
four gt. They would have ruined it.

252
00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:02,919
Maybe they would have because they were
He would have taken that whole assembly

253
00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:06,839
line thing. These are these are
handmade engines, man, these are I

254
00:17:06,880 --> 00:17:10,880
mean you practically have the guy's signature
on eat off. You can eat off

255
00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:15,319
the mechanics table. Yes, in
the in the engine room of the Ferrari.

256
00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:18,039
There's one other. Now I've never
been there, but I there's a

257
00:17:18,039 --> 00:17:21,599
guy in town. Same thing.
I say it all the time. Cleanest

258
00:17:21,599 --> 00:17:23,880
garage you'll oversee. It's it's a
little speech shop over on the west side.

259
00:17:25,279 --> 00:17:29,079
Just beautiful. Absolutely, floors are
great and they work on all those

260
00:17:29,119 --> 00:17:33,440
cars exactly. And I don't I
don't know own Ferrari, but I'm proud

261
00:17:33,519 --> 00:17:40,599
to say that I've represented the Ferrari
of men's clothing. I'll give you that

262
00:17:40,799 --> 00:17:45,319
since nineteen ninety and it's called Zenia
made in Italy as a matter of facts

263
00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:53,240
on on your website, and that's
like some of those shirts, so you

264
00:17:53,319 --> 00:18:00,799
know you gotta look you absolutely and
that's that that collection is uh passion personified.

265
00:18:00,839 --> 00:18:06,079
I mean they talk about doing every
little detail the right way. And

266
00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:08,960
you're paying Ferrari prices, but you're
in Ferrari. Well, I'm a big

267
00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:15,440
fan of I would rather quality than
maybe I buy one, but I got

268
00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:18,880
you know, you understand, Like
that to me is what's always been important.

269
00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:22,039
Like I like certain brands. I
don't have a lot of them,

270
00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:25,279
but I love them. Because they're
special. Yeah, and how do you

271
00:18:25,319 --> 00:18:26,640
feel when you put them on?
I feel like a million bucks? How

272
00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:30,119
do you feel? How do you
feel I could take on the world when

273
00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:33,480
I put on a decent suit of
clothes. Can I come here, dumbass

274
00:18:33,480 --> 00:18:37,519
from west side Rochester, I'm coming
in here talking to you. Side point

275
00:18:37,599 --> 00:18:40,640
being is yes, you know,
I'm only a man who's built a successful

276
00:18:40,680 --> 00:18:45,200
business. You know, I'm the
dumbass by the way, built about family

277
00:18:45,279 --> 00:18:48,359
comes up. Here's a question for
your kind of a left turn a little

278
00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:53,559
bit. But Hicky Freeman is going
to start moving their manufacturer down by your

279
00:18:53,559 --> 00:19:00,079
brother in Mexico. But they're gonna
be keeping someone of a footprint here.

280
00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:03,880
I mean, are you familiar with
the whole thing? And I'm there three

281
00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:08,279
times a week and I've been there
forever. And there's a lot of misinformation

282
00:19:08,839 --> 00:19:12,599
thought about this whole thing. Okay, yeah, now you gotta look at

283
00:19:12,599 --> 00:19:17,160
it. I'm going to oversimplify it
initially by saying that you look at Prince

284
00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:21,279
the musician Prince, and he went
from Prince to that symbol whatever for that

285
00:19:21,319 --> 00:19:27,279
symbol was formerly known as Prince.
Okay, his music. It's this whole

286
00:19:27,319 --> 00:19:32,519
thing Okay, that's what's happening here
in Rochester. It's it's a business.

287
00:19:32,559 --> 00:19:37,200
Okay. So there's a company called
Authentic Brands that owns the Hickey Freeman intellectual

288
00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:44,359
property and the name. Okay,
they worked the agreement out with this Canadian

289
00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:48,920
firm that had the rights to produce
Hicky Freeman for the last I'm teen years.

290
00:19:48,920 --> 00:19:51,119
I'm not sure exact like that,
but they've been doing it for a

291
00:19:51,119 --> 00:19:56,079
while now. That license came up
for renewal whatever, and they awarded it

292
00:19:56,160 --> 00:20:03,359
Authentic or whoever it was awarded the
production and of Hicky Freeman the name the

293
00:20:03,519 --> 00:20:07,079
Peerless, which is another Canadian manufacturer, Okay, Peerless. Because of the

294
00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:12,880
fact that they can't produce, nor
can any other American or Canadian firm for

295
00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:17,599
the most part, produce a garment
that they want to retail. Between five

296
00:20:17,759 --> 00:20:21,200
ninety five seven ninety five, they
went offshore to Mexico, got it.

297
00:20:21,519 --> 00:20:23,200
They can find a factory that's gonna
be able to produce it for that kind

298
00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:26,960
of money, and they're only going
to sell it to a department store for

299
00:20:27,039 --> 00:20:30,759
the most part. There's going to
be a department store in the Midwest called

300
00:20:30,759 --> 00:20:33,319
Dillard's Biggs Department store. That's the
only one is going to be selling Hicky

301
00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:38,079
Freeman. Now that's just the name, right, Okay. Authentic brands owns

302
00:20:38,079 --> 00:20:41,480
the name. They want their big
they want their vegue. I don't care

303
00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:45,279
who makes it, maybe, right, So they're looking for somebody to make

304
00:20:45,279 --> 00:20:48,160
a suit that's gonna be under a
grand correct, right somewhere between five.

305
00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:52,319
They're not authentic brands. They're not. They just want this, okay.

306
00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:56,599
They want to produce that product for
whatever reason, for that price. And

307
00:20:56,640 --> 00:20:59,880
it just killed the whole name of
the company because it's not Hicky Freeman.

308
00:21:00,440 --> 00:21:04,480
It's not Hicky Freeman. The Hicky
Freeman DNA is in those facts in that

309
00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:11,559
factory on North Clinton Avenue that's you
know, now being converted partially into senior

310
00:21:11,599 --> 00:21:17,440
living uh, senior living homes and
the factory because the production is down obviously,

311
00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:18,680
you know, around the world and
men's clothing, the production is down

312
00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:22,680
everywhere, but they're still the capacity
and they're still working. They're working their

313
00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:26,599
butts out. They can't have enough
people to produce agram. But because that's

314
00:21:26,640 --> 00:21:30,799
the DNA that was Hicky Freeman for
one hundred and twenty five years, those

315
00:21:30,839 --> 00:21:33,319
are the people that's toiled over there
and their offspring, and those are the

316
00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:37,000
people that have managed the production and
the one of my best friends in the

317
00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:41,680
world runs that factory. And I'm
telling you that factory right now, it

318
00:21:41,759 --> 00:21:45,559
is producing this quality of garment as
it was back in the day, and

319
00:21:45,599 --> 00:21:48,480
I mean back in the day,
back in the day, turn of the

320
00:21:48,559 --> 00:21:52,720
century up to you know, right, I'm sorry, I get a little

321
00:21:52,720 --> 00:22:00,039
bit enthusiastic, but we're talking about
this is the people think they took the

322
00:21:59,559 --> 00:22:03,680
yeah, the factory, you can
they moved to Mexico. No, they

323
00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:07,400
just took the name and moved that
to Mexico. So the factory still here

324
00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:11,680
and producing the best garment. I'm
telling you what name will be on those

325
00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:17,160
Rochester Taylor Clothing Co. Rochester Taylor
Clothing Company. Will your store carry that?

326
00:22:17,920 --> 00:22:22,319
I know it does. But well
we've yeah, we've carried Hicky Freeman

327
00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:26,519
when it evolved. See what happened
was Hicky Freeman was produced in Rochester under

328
00:22:26,519 --> 00:22:30,000
the Hicky Freeman name. Then it
went and moved to Canada and this was

329
00:22:30,039 --> 00:22:33,079
produced in Montreal under the Hicky Freeman
name, and so we carried it in

330
00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:36,200
Rochester. Montreal is a fancy city
man. Yeah, but the project.

331
00:22:36,440 --> 00:22:40,640
But they ain't got clothes like us. Brother, I don't tell me about

332
00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:44,519
Montrea Clinty some of the best looking
people in the world and key back.

333
00:22:44,680 --> 00:22:48,279
It's beautiful. Montreal is one of
the coolest of cities and really by or

334
00:22:48,279 --> 00:22:51,839
none. I loved it when I
was there, and I wasn't there enough

335
00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:59,400
because I loved it. Canadian clothing
is not the same. It's not the

336
00:22:59,519 --> 00:23:07,200
same. It's not the Italians by
leaps and bounds and a Hicky Freeman company

337
00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:11,119
that we now call the Rochester Tailing
clump by leaps and bounds. Yeah,

338
00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:14,759
I mean, there is no comparison. There are details, I could tell

339
00:23:14,799 --> 00:23:19,000
you what, just fascinating details,
things that come up from the years gone

340
00:23:19,039 --> 00:23:26,000
by. There is there is a
detail on the button hole that goes on

341
00:23:26,039 --> 00:23:27,680
to La Pelm, my mother.
So button holds for Hicky Freeman for nineteen

342
00:23:27,759 --> 00:23:33,720
years, so I'm intimately aware of
this procedure. It's called Ozzie La Ozzwi

343
00:23:33,839 --> 00:23:37,000
is buttonhole. Guggieo is shiny.
But this is a special button hole that

344
00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:42,960
was primarily constructed for tuxedos because it
has a very, very the finest gimp

345
00:23:44,279 --> 00:23:49,559
and the finest thread that wraps a
gimp, the thicker of the thread around

346
00:23:49,599 --> 00:23:56,000
the buttonhole by hand. It's incredible, and people all over the world realize

347
00:23:57,079 --> 00:24:03,279
that that particular detail developed here at
Hickey Freeman in Rochester, New York.

348
00:24:03,319 --> 00:24:06,480
Look at this. I'm telling you
you can't Imrgine. You were telling me

349
00:24:06,480 --> 00:24:07,839
that with the suits that I got
my son with the one button, You're

350
00:24:07,839 --> 00:24:11,759
like, that's that's not a normal
thing. That's a that's a high end

351
00:24:11,799 --> 00:24:15,759
thing. That's that's exactly right.
And there's always details that separate the details

352
00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:18,440
with the passion and glory that comes
from the details. I mean, you

353
00:24:18,759 --> 00:24:22,720
start talking about construction, you start
talking about style. Yeah, I'm telling

354
00:24:22,720 --> 00:24:26,759
you what. Look at these sportscasters
on TV and just look at the shoulders

355
00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:30,160
of their jackets and they're all dressed
in suits and ties and they're looking and

356
00:24:30,160 --> 00:24:33,279
they're power brokers. I mean,
there's still power brokers out there wearing shirts

357
00:24:33,279 --> 00:24:37,440
and ties and suits and I mean
they're looking good. But look at their

358
00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:41,039
shoulders and give you a first if
it's if it's serious. Because the should

359
00:24:41,119 --> 00:24:45,119
love and walls shit's on the sportscasters
is my favorite part of the hassleback.

360
00:24:45,559 --> 00:24:49,799
What's the guy does ESPN hassleback,
but hassleback. Okay, he had his

361
00:24:49,839 --> 00:24:56,160
shoulders on his jacket. They were
doing like y And I posted on Facebook,

362
00:24:56,200 --> 00:25:00,920
I said, think it Hasselback,
call me our call buddy Randy Mosters

363
00:25:00,920 --> 00:25:06,039
Taylor because his shoulders were packed that
they were straight. He could see now

364
00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:10,680
now although Hasselbeck has now found the
Taylor, that's the shoulders that he should

365
00:25:10,759 --> 00:25:12,839
be wearing. But the ones he
was wearing like there were abortions. Terrible.

366
00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:17,720
Talk to me about when you when
you're talking Hicky Freeman, they used

367
00:25:17,759 --> 00:25:19,519
to outfit all the Olympic stuff.
Was that stuff that was done here in

368
00:25:19,640 --> 00:25:22,559
Rochester and Rochester, New York?
All that Olympic stuff, all that?

369
00:25:22,880 --> 00:25:30,920
Yeah, all that was a rough
floor. Yeah yeah, it's okay.

370
00:25:30,960 --> 00:25:36,720
Yeah, I'm not supposed to,
but yeah, let me tell you something.

371
00:25:36,799 --> 00:25:44,119
Hicky Freeman's history is longer than that
of Ferrari, Lamborghini, Zenia.

372
00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:52,160
Their history is incredible. They suited
Presidents Woodrow Wilson, Teddy Roosevelt, Bill

373
00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:55,279
Clinton. I mean, the list
goes on and on. Cole and Powell.

374
00:25:55,599 --> 00:25:59,000
We used to have in our stock
room. We used to put invoices

375
00:25:59,319 --> 00:26:03,000
on the wall save a famous people, you know, so you can see

376
00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:07,119
the copies they make copies of It's
incredible. Should write a book, yeah

377
00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:11,640
right now, what about your own
You have your own brand. Our own

378
00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:17,680
brand is is O Marrows. Yeah, but it's made by Hickey Freeman,

379
00:26:17,799 --> 00:26:21,720
Okay, or I should says by
the Rochester Taylor clothe Okay, Okay,

380
00:26:22,119 --> 00:26:23,960
that's a nice thing. I mean
you want to talk about support local.

381
00:26:25,079 --> 00:26:27,000
That's a big phrase these days now. Made in the USA. Yeah,

382
00:26:27,079 --> 00:26:30,759
made in the USA. Even though
the Italians have been a big part of

383
00:26:30,799 --> 00:26:34,160
my business over the years, they've
been a big part of it. My

384
00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:38,240
my my blood runs in those halls, yes, on Clinton Avenue. I

385
00:26:38,240 --> 00:26:41,720
bet you did. I bet some
real blood fell on those floors. If

386
00:26:41,759 --> 00:26:42,880
the walls could talk, I talk
to my friend John all the time.

387
00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:49,839
If the walls gets uh, who
can you? Would you name drop for

388
00:26:49,920 --> 00:26:53,640
us? I probably they wouldn't.
You probably would like clients. I was

389
00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:57,039
gonna say who the most famous client? Or maybe maybe somebody who maybe is

390
00:26:57,039 --> 00:27:02,039
no longer here, somebody who's not
on the planet. You outfit it generally

391
00:27:02,079 --> 00:27:04,799
speaking. I like that you don't
say anything but you know, it's like

392
00:27:06,079 --> 00:27:08,799
it's like a it's like privileged information. Sure, okay, yeah you're my

393
00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:12,119

is we're taught, okay, And

398
00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:33,559

was taught, if you make a guy

399
00:27:33,599 --> 00:27:37,400

the world. Well, word of mouth

400
00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:40,000

439
00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:04,839
an Elane Spall who's put this together
with the with the Center for Youth.

00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:08,440
Yeah, she's done a fantastic shot, but it's really trying to help kids

441
00:30:08,440 --> 00:30:12,079
stay off. She's a wonderful woman

was fortunate to be one to be in

they did it, I started with them,

445
00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:30,720
and then of course now Met's taken
over and they've expanded since then.

446
00:30:30,400 --> 00:30:36,640
But it's a chance to bring together
all the local talent in fashion and jewelry

447
00:30:36,839 --> 00:30:41,480
and designs and showcase them in one
spot and raise money for the Center for

448
00:30:41,559 --> 00:30:44,759
Youth to help the kids that's so
much, so badly needed. Yeah,

449
00:30:44,799 --> 00:30:48,119
do you ever help some of these
other clothiers that are starting. You seem

450
00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:49,200
like a kind of guy who if
I wanted to come pick your brain,

451
00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:52,319
you'd be very open to that.
Let me tell you a story. That's

452
00:30:52,319 --> 00:30:53,599
one of my mottos. Okay,
I tell these young guys. They stay,

453
00:30:53,640 --> 00:30:56,720
well, what do you know?
What do I gotta do? I

454
00:30:56,759 --> 00:31:00,480
said, what you gotta do?
You gotta find somebody that did it,

455
00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:03,519
whoever you consider it to be at
the top of the food chain in your

456
00:31:03,559 --> 00:31:06,200
business. You find that guy and
you go ask him what it took to

457
00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:10,160
get there. I promise you,
I promise you he's share every inch of

458
00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:14,640
his experience with you. And as
what I yes, as what I would

459
00:31:14,680 --> 00:31:15,519
say, some kid, young kid
twenty year will come up and what a

460
00:31:15,559 --> 00:31:18,400
I gotta do? We gotta tell
you what to get here? Here?

461
00:31:18,400 --> 00:31:21,480
Write this down, write these down, read these books, do these tapes

462
00:31:21,519 --> 00:31:23,640
to? I mean, I would
be happy to share, but they don't

463
00:31:25,039 --> 00:31:30,200
have the balls. I hope I
can say that they don't have the balls

464
00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:33,559
to do it, and then they
wonder why they don't succeed. Well,

465
00:31:33,559 --> 00:31:34,799
I laid out the plane for you. I've done it. This is what

466
00:31:34,839 --> 00:31:40,920
I save you ten years on your
successful curve. Sure if you just follow

467
00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:45,480
these instructions in case some point,
why do you teach? Why don't you

468
00:31:45,559 --> 00:31:49,079
teach somewhere? Why why you have
our ri I t a fashion? I

469
00:31:49,079 --> 00:31:52,920
mean there's r I I think I
never thought about it, never thought about

470
00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:56,319
it, you know. But what
my expertise would be in the world of

471
00:31:56,400 --> 00:31:59,680
selling, okay, because I've learned
how to sell okay, And selling is

472
00:31:59,680 --> 00:32:04,039
abuse beautiful thing. And selling you
take a product like I offer, and

473
00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:07,920
you turn it into you turn it
over to a person that can truly be

474
00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:13,039
a professional salesman. People think salesman
are con man or schlick or sleazy.

475
00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:16,039
You know they're here for A professional
is anything, but a professional is an

476
00:32:16,039 --> 00:32:22,440
elegant, personal, considerate person that
wants to help you get what you want,

477
00:32:22,519 --> 00:32:25,359
and he pulls that out of you
because sometimes you don't even know what

478
00:32:25,400 --> 00:32:34,160
you want. Okay, so a
salesman, pardon me, I got carried

479
00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:36,599
away there, But I love when
you get carried away. I could do

480
00:32:36,640 --> 00:32:38,880
what I could do. You know
what I want. I'm gonna be starting

481
00:32:39,119 --> 00:32:44,759
another podcast and I haven't even talked
about this yet that I may do called

482
00:32:44,799 --> 00:32:47,680
Sunday Conversations and it would be released
every week on a Sunday. I would

483
00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:51,400
be honored if you would come and
do a one on one like this with

484
00:32:51,440 --> 00:32:54,079
me. That's not you know,
to talk about this stuff. And we

485
00:32:54,119 --> 00:32:55,960
don't have to tape it on a
Sunday. We tape it any day.

486
00:32:57,799 --> 00:33:00,319
You first of all, talked about
a KA because you can. Kevin's great,

487
00:33:00,359 --> 00:33:01,839
He's gonna have to increase my contract. That's okay, I mean right

488
00:33:01,839 --> 00:33:08,119
now, we got to talk to
numbers first before we get But yeah,

489
00:33:08,119 --> 00:33:10,880
but I tell these kids, you
know, get yourself a mentor get yourself

490
00:33:10,920 --> 00:33:14,119
someone that's been there and has done
it, and they'll help you get to

491
00:33:14,200 --> 00:33:16,000
where you are. I saved it
ten years. Yes, I tell you're

492
00:33:16,079 --> 00:33:19,079
thirty, you listen to what I
tell you. By the time you're thirty,

493
00:33:19,119 --> 00:33:22,119
you'll be where I am. Now
they don't do it, and it's

494
00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:25,519
frustrating. So I don't teach.
Actually I never thought about teaching. Yeah,

495
00:33:25,920 --> 00:33:29,240
you got a lot of knowledge and
a lot of that. That that

496
00:33:29,240 --> 00:33:30,519
word, but it keeps coming up. It runs through your veins. It

497
00:33:31,039 --> 00:33:35,519
is passions right there. It's what
I've learned over my lifetime. I mean,

498
00:33:35,559 --> 00:33:37,079
it's the little things I learned through
my life. Then, so we

499
00:33:37,079 --> 00:33:42,599
were talking about fashion Week, um
brings about for a great cause, the

500
00:33:42,799 --> 00:33:45,680
Center for Youth Elaine Spa. She's
a wonderful labe and she does a lot

501
00:33:45,880 --> 00:33:51,359
for our community that people don't even
realize. And all these little fashion shows.

502
00:33:51,359 --> 00:33:54,720
We got one coming up on June
first. I think, yeah,

503
00:33:54,799 --> 00:34:00,039
June first is the Public Market,
and all that week there are shows on

504
00:34:00,119 --> 00:34:04,359
all just the one on June first
is the Public Market, Stars and Cars,

505
00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:08,119
the Edgy Night they're calling it.
I'm confused because Thursday, June first

506
00:34:08,159 --> 00:34:12,639
and second. When I look at
June first is an edgy night, including

507
00:34:12,679 --> 00:34:17,920

He's a young man. You want

lot of excited cars reading spaces. I

does. You're saying this, and I'm

543
00:36:32,639 --> 00:36:37,400
picking up on something. Does is
it's hard for your son to stand in

544
00:36:37,400 --> 00:36:39,840
your shadow a little bit? Absolutely? Not no, And I don't mean

545
00:36:39,960 --> 00:36:43,920
like he's standing in your shadow,
but you were. You were the name,

546
00:36:43,960 --> 00:36:45,639
You're the guy that started that.
Well, not that your son isn't

547
00:36:45,719 --> 00:36:50,559
fully capable, but I mean,
don't forget there's many people who associate that

548
00:36:50,639 --> 00:36:52,880
with you. That is you,
right, you give it, that's true.

549
00:36:52,960 --> 00:36:57,840
But I've built what I've built,
and he's taking it to the next

550
00:36:57,920 --> 00:37:01,000
level. Okay, he's taking it
much broader. We're doing We're doing that.

551
00:37:02,039 --> 00:37:05,480
He has a nice website because you
can put all your measurements in.

552
00:37:05,719 --> 00:37:07,639
Yeah, yeah, you could do
all stuff service almost almost. You could

553
00:37:07,639 --> 00:37:10,000
have a custom sure. But let
me tell you something, and you know

554
00:37:10,159 --> 00:37:15,800
I'm old school still yet, measure
on you. I gotta see how much

555
00:37:15,800 --> 00:37:19,480
you wait. I gotta look you
in the eye and know what you're gonna

556
00:37:19,480 --> 00:37:23,159
feel when you put a pink lapel
double breast. You gotta have those pleats

557
00:37:23,199 --> 00:37:27,559
lane just personally, or you gotta
have that pan the pockets lane clean.

558
00:37:27,719 --> 00:37:32,360
It's gotta be about up in passion, That's right. How can you give

559
00:37:32,400 --> 00:37:37,840
me some passion over here? You
won't believe it because, first of all,

560
00:37:37,920 --> 00:37:42,320
for you, unfortunately, it's hard
for you to walk into a retail

561
00:37:42,400 --> 00:37:45,639
or anywhere on the face of the
earth and buy something that's gonna be appropriate.

562
00:37:45,679 --> 00:37:46,760
Where I could take because I got
a big mouth. See, I

563
00:37:46,760 --> 00:37:51,559
could take, I could take and
make the I could take and make a

564
00:37:51,679 --> 00:37:53,840
c rated suit fit you, and
you think you got the best suit in

565
00:37:53,840 --> 00:37:57,519
the world on. But it would
never happen because you know I'd make you

566
00:37:57,679 --> 00:38:01,199
right. You know I'd make it
a quality Yeah, because I want you

567
00:38:01,239 --> 00:38:07,519
to shine. See when you I'm
the same way and not that. When

568
00:38:07,599 --> 00:38:15,000
us big guys have to look good
man, it takes precision in areas don't

569
00:38:15,039 --> 00:38:19,760
always get looked at. Okay,
those shoulders, you know that's what you're

570
00:38:19,760 --> 00:38:22,960
getting with You get a little big
in here and your shoulders aren't big enough

571
00:38:22,960 --> 00:38:25,000
to cover. You gotta make a
balance so you can have everything slims down.

572
00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:29,559
You look thirty pounds line and you
look like you can't do it.

573
00:38:29,679 --> 00:38:37,159
You can't just put it. This
is the Men's Warehouse, right, Oh,

574
00:38:37,199 --> 00:38:46,280
you're just store in front of me
of world. Say truth be told.

575
00:38:46,360 --> 00:38:51,079
It's a pyramid. Yeah, okay. The business Siemen is a pyramid

576
00:38:51,679 --> 00:38:58,679
down here where the Men's Warehouse and
all those inexpensive which are viable, big

577
00:38:58,719 --> 00:39:00,480
time business. Yes they are.
That's how big that business is because a

578
00:39:00,480 --> 00:39:04,119
lot of people go there until you
get to mine at the top of the

579
00:39:04,119 --> 00:39:07,440
pyramid, which is a very narrow
market and very narrow supplier supply chain.

580
00:39:07,519 --> 00:39:12,199
Okay, I'm a pare I don't
do what the Men's warehouse. They do

581
00:39:12,239 --> 00:39:14,280
ten million dollars, they'll lose the
money, you know, I do.

582
00:39:14,440 --> 00:39:16,800
You know, we do a ton
of that and we're fine, We're great.

583
00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:21,599
You know, Well where was where
was Red Barn before he closed?

584
00:39:21,639 --> 00:39:23,480
And that he was at the top
of the food chain. He was the

585
00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:30,960
top of the food chain. Rod
No Don Roder had created it had created

586
00:39:30,880 --> 00:39:38,280
one of the greatest stores in the
country, and it was it was voted

587
00:39:38,320 --> 00:39:43,119
so in Esquire magazine. Really,
yes, it was. Roods is one

588
00:39:43,119 --> 00:39:46,599
of the top I think one of
the top ten men's independent retailers in the

589
00:39:46,639 --> 00:39:52,199
country. Wow, spectacular. He
did some credible things. He didn't in

590
00:39:52,280 --> 00:39:54,880
fact, when I worked that,
excuse me for interrupted. When I first

591
00:39:54,920 --> 00:39:59,280
started a Hicky Freeman, he was
in business, and I admired him.

592
00:39:59,280 --> 00:40:00,800
I said, this guy's you know, he's putting doing pride. You know,

593
00:40:00,800 --> 00:40:04,360
he's doing shit and I'm not seeing
you know. That's it was at

594
00:40:04,400 --> 00:40:07,679
the beginning of the discounters and everything. Buddy started the discount and everything.

595
00:40:07,679 --> 00:40:08,880
And that's this guy staying true to
his colors. You know, he's staying

596
00:40:08,920 --> 00:40:13,000
true to his quality, his passion. I admired that. And the guy

597
00:40:13,079 --> 00:40:15,400
had a great store for totally closed. He closed just before the pandemic.

598
00:40:15,440 --> 00:40:17,760
We'll talk about getting out at the
right time he would have you know.

599
00:40:19,519 --> 00:40:22,719
Yeah, but it was a top
shelf, a lot of suit there.

600
00:40:22,719 --> 00:40:24,039
And then it was six months later
he closed. I go, I could

601
00:40:24,079 --> 00:40:27,719
have waited. Yeah, yeah,
yeah, top shelf, top shelf.

602
00:40:27,920 --> 00:40:30,079
All right, we will will take
a moment. Uh man, It's been

00:40:34,599 --> 00:40:38,559
feel bad. I told you I
was getting stories. Yes, great stories,

605
00:40:38,639 --> 00:40:43,079
great, but but the past.
For once, I'm hearing the stories

606
00:40:43,119 --> 00:40:45,679
somewhat sober. Usually i'm hearing his
stories. I'm a little in the back

654
00:43:54,960 --> 00:43:59,760
catching up. Yeah, I owe
you one brother. Yeah there's still sugar

655
00:44:00,039 --> 00:44:04,480
vodka. But it was really nice
because for many years when I was on

656
00:44:04,519 --> 00:44:07,400
a pretty good run, the wife
would be like, you know how much

657
00:44:07,440 --> 00:44:14,880
sugars and you're gonna be dim By
the way, that was a spot on

658
00:44:15,079 --> 00:44:20,119
impression of the old lady. But
yeah, no sugar in the vodka and

659
00:44:20,719 --> 00:44:23,320
I forgot else. Oh that's what
I was gonna say. Yeah, don't

660
00:44:23,320 --> 00:44:28,559
worry about everybody packing them begs for
the guilt trips. Man, they never

661
00:44:28,599 --> 00:44:30,519
stopped. All right, I have
a good one, man, And be

664
00:44:37,440 --> 00:44:40,280
pirate ship. Go ahead, be
honest with my wife's select that I'd probably

665
00:44:40,360 --> 00:44:45,480
mainline sugar at it, just to
get the sugars, just to get slightly

666
00:44:45,599 --> 00:44:49,679
high to nothing. Amrecks had four
shots. Wow, the Amrecks. Could

667
00:44:49,679 --> 00:44:52,079
this be it? I say,
get on that bandwagon and piss off Dan

668
00:44:52,199 --> 00:44:57,679
Brillo, who is not here tonight
in the studio, Wally Picone, the

669
00:44:58,760 --> 00:45:00,000
I want to say, the owner, and I I feel like he's gonna

670
00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:04,960
correct me. But o'maras and then
the brains, the brains, the creator

671
00:45:05,039 --> 00:45:07,320
and now his son runs it.
And uh, while he is a he

672
00:45:07,440 --> 00:45:12,400
is a walking fashionista. Is that? Am I saying that? Right?

673
00:45:12,440 --> 00:45:15,800
Fashion? I mean, you got
this guy. I just I would like

674
00:45:15,840 --> 00:45:17,400
to just hang out with him.
You're welcome, Yeah, I would like

675
00:45:17,400 --> 00:45:20,400
to. I'd like just to hang
out him over. You got to come

676
00:45:20,400 --> 00:45:22,440
over for one of our happy hours. No glass Guinness bottles by the pool.

677
00:45:22,440 --> 00:45:27,920
Though I don't like glass. I
likes I said like, and this

678
00:45:27,960 --> 00:45:30,400
is gonna sound bad like I like
it, and I like it in the

679
00:45:30,440 --> 00:45:34,679
canno. You know, sounds stupid, but I prefer if I'm gonna buy

680
00:45:34,719 --> 00:45:37,440
it, not out of the tap. Also here is Freddie do Less.

681
00:45:37,880 --> 00:45:42,000
Freddie is a comedian. He's got
a big show coming up on the twenty

682
00:45:42,000 --> 00:45:45,400
seventh at Boulder Coffee nine o'clock.
Get to tickets in advance. It's called

683
00:45:45,480 --> 00:45:50,360
Birthday Suits. He's doing it with
his buddy Amir are Shod and a miror.

684
00:45:50,440 --> 00:45:52,639
Decided that he had to be funny
tonight and do some comedy. I

685
00:45:52,719 --> 00:45:57,679
think. So he's warming up.
So let me I have questions for you,

686
00:45:57,679 --> 00:46:01,199
Freddie, because I you have a
YouTube channel. I do have a

687
00:46:01,239 --> 00:46:05,039
YouTube channel. Yeah, I looked
at some of the stuff. It's idle

688
00:46:05,159 --> 00:46:08,039
right now. I'm in the process
of getting some content ready, okay,

689
00:46:08,199 --> 00:46:12,440
So yeah, there's a lot of
work with all that stuff. It is.

690
00:46:12,599 --> 00:46:16,679
I had a little show it's called
Slap Freddie. Slap Freddie I saw,

691
00:46:20,360 --> 00:46:23,519
But what was the premise behind Slap
Freddie? So the premises I invite

692
00:46:23,519 --> 00:46:30,400
a lot of people um into my
studio apartment and I like, what's supposed

693
00:46:30,440 --> 00:46:34,679
to be the one bedroom that I
turned into like a green screen studio room.

694
00:46:34,920 --> 00:46:37,960
It's really cramped. I get people
in there and have them watch Slap

695
00:46:37,000 --> 00:46:40,840
fights on my laptop and they don't
know what the hell is going on,

696
00:46:40,960 --> 00:46:45,920
and we're just catching their reactions and
we get into a lot of nonsense.

697
00:46:45,000 --> 00:46:50,840
It's very it's very unique. It's
an interesting concept. We're slap fights.

698
00:46:50,880 --> 00:46:54,320
Are these are people where they're slapping
each other across the face. I've seen

699
00:46:54,360 --> 00:46:58,360
these where one guy stands on one
side of the table, Yeah, and

700
00:46:58,400 --> 00:47:00,639
another guy stands and you take slapping
each other. Yeah. It's actually think

701
00:47:00,639 --> 00:47:06,519
one guy got knocked out into fighting. You got to show on TBS and

702
00:47:06,559 --> 00:47:09,199
everything. He put a lot of
money into what is going on in America

703
00:47:09,199 --> 00:47:15,360
that we go this is high entertainment
for me. This honestly it's it's the

704
00:47:15,440 --> 00:47:21,199
opioid crisis hit, but it is. You're doing it to poke fun at

705
00:47:21,239 --> 00:47:24,719
it. Well, I'm actually a
huge slap fight fan. I like I

706
00:47:24,800 --> 00:47:28,280
was in it before Dan and White. So I've been doing this for like

707
00:47:28,320 --> 00:47:31,199
two years now, but I haven't
required any of the episodes. Why are

708
00:47:31,199 --> 00:47:35,719
you a fan? Well, because
it's I don't I don't work during the

709
00:47:35,719 --> 00:47:39,239
summer, okay, so I just
spend times because I work at RT so

710
00:47:39,280 --> 00:47:43,960
we got ten months schedules, so
I got two months free during the summer,

711
00:47:44,000 --> 00:47:46,719
and I just get into YouTube holes
and I just find the weirdest sports,

712
00:47:46,760 --> 00:47:50,679
and this sport had potential. I
wanted to get in at the ground

713
00:47:50,760 --> 00:47:52,920
level and just grow with it.
Do you want it? Would you ever

714
00:47:53,000 --> 00:48:00,599
participate as a commentator as as you
ever seen the little people slap fights?

715
00:48:00,880 --> 00:48:05,559
No? I have hilarious. I
haven't seen that. It almost feels degrading

716
00:48:05,599 --> 00:48:07,239
in some way. I feel like
I need a shower after that. Wally

717
00:48:07,320 --> 00:48:10,519
what do I know? What is
that? Yeah? I need a Wally

718
00:48:10,559 --> 00:48:14,000
suit to make myself feel better.
I would have a slap fight to get

719
00:48:14,039 --> 00:48:17,679
a super to have to be a
dark suitca my suits come with a with

720
00:48:17,840 --> 00:48:27,039
a uh, you don't go slap
fighting. And while you're wearing now Freddie

721
00:48:27,119 --> 00:48:30,159
is also fluent in sign language.
That's correct and you and that's over at

722
00:48:30,280 --> 00:48:36,599
rit do you interpret? Yeah?
Now, how did you become fluent in

723
00:48:36,639 --> 00:48:39,119
sign language? Because you're I don't
know what the proper thing is. I

724
00:48:39,159 --> 00:48:45,679
think that we say sometimes typical or
I don't know every everything. Well,

725
00:48:45,760 --> 00:48:49,400
I have a son who was on
the autis and spectrum, so you would

726
00:48:49,400 --> 00:48:52,440
say a typical child versus a child
who's on the spectrum. Those were the

727
00:48:52,440 --> 00:48:57,320
politically correct terms. I don't know
if there's one of people who are who

728
00:48:57,519 --> 00:49:00,599
are hearing impaired versus Oh, I
see what you're saying. I see what

729
00:49:00,639 --> 00:49:04,679
you're saying. Um, but you
any money in your family hearing impaired?

730
00:49:05,199 --> 00:49:08,679
Uh, that you learned sign Yeah, that they don't know sign language.

731
00:49:08,719 --> 00:49:12,199
But there are some hearing impaired people. But I just grew up outside of

732
00:49:12,280 --> 00:49:15,039
DC where they have the huge deaf
college, like thirty minutes away. It's

733
00:49:15,039 --> 00:49:19,119
like Galadette. Yeah, Galadett used
to play Saint John Fisher when I was

734
00:49:19,159 --> 00:49:23,360
there in football really yes, and
they used a bass drum to do their

735
00:49:23,440 --> 00:49:28,960
count Yes, the vibration you could
feel the vibration for the players who are

736
00:49:29,000 --> 00:49:31,119
hard of hearing. Right. Yeah, So I grew up around deaf people

737
00:49:31,239 --> 00:49:36,480
and then um, I just learned
sign language and then luckily they offered him

738
00:49:36,480 --> 00:49:40,719

768
00:51:45,039 --> 00:51:47,920
Gator. I should have started with
Gator, That's what I should I should

769
00:51:47,960 --> 00:51:51,280
have started that way, that one. And yeah, and then we have

770
00:51:51,480 --> 00:51:54,119
a new comic that we like,
Eric Johnson. We're gonna give him like

771
00:51:54,119 --> 00:51:58,679
a five minute spot and see how
he does very good. Yeah, that's

772
00:51:58,719 --> 00:52:00,679
awesome. And you know what I
like about it is really it is a

773
00:52:00,760 --> 00:52:05,039
birthday gift. You're giving yourself the
gift of laughter, right, and you

774
00:52:05,079 --> 00:52:07,880
get to laugh at other people and
have a good time. And nobody's doing

775
00:52:07,880 --> 00:52:12,920
it naked, right, not not
that I know of. There's one he's

776
00:52:13,360 --> 00:52:19,639
come out like fleeing the Oh.
We actually know one comedian who's a nudist,

777
00:52:20,760 --> 00:52:28,880
but he's not funny at drops his
pants and it's hilarious. He's Irish.

778
00:52:29,079 --> 00:52:30,440
Uh so, Freddie, do you
have you been? Do you go

779
00:52:30,480 --> 00:52:35,119
on the road as well? Yeah? Sometimes. I was actually supposed to

780
00:52:35,119 --> 00:52:38,639
be in Syracuse this weekend, but
uh, I have a show to do,

781
00:52:38,800 --> 00:52:42,199
so I can't go. But I
was supposed to perform at the Funny

782
00:52:42,199 --> 00:52:45,199
Bone. Yeah, it's a nice
room in there. It's nice. It's

783
00:52:45,280 --> 00:52:47,679
upstairs in the mall. Yeah,
it's one of the nicer rooms it is.

784
00:52:47,760 --> 00:52:53,840
Well, yeah, yeah, it's
it's actually it's not a bad room.

785
00:52:53,960 --> 00:52:57,239
The way to have it set up
and the Funny Bone get some good

786
00:52:57,360 --> 00:53:00,559
comics coming through you. Yeah,
who who have you? Now? This

787
00:53:00,639 --> 00:53:06,239
is a question or a statement a
lot of people make. I have shared

788
00:53:06,320 --> 00:53:08,559
the stage with doesn't mean you were
up there at the same time, Okay,

789
00:53:08,719 --> 00:53:13,199
but who have you shared the stage? Stage? Within comedy? Bill

790
00:53:13,280 --> 00:53:17,519
Moran, that's the one person I
have shared the stage. We did do

791
00:53:17,559 --> 00:53:21,360
that. But but I mean,
I would assume, like Funny Bone and

792
00:53:21,400 --> 00:53:24,840
stuff, what are you doing their
middling? Well uh not yet. So

793
00:53:24,880 --> 00:53:29,360
I won a competition at the Funny
Bone. Okay, so now they booked

794
00:53:29,360 --> 00:53:32,360
me to come hosts for different comedients
and stuff. Right now they're up and

795
00:53:32,400 --> 00:53:38,480
coming comedians because I just won maybe
like last month, do you want the

796
00:53:38,480 --> 00:53:43,039
funniest person? Basically the same thing
they do here in Rochester for Syracuse.

797
00:53:43,239 --> 00:53:45,320
Not really, So they had these
competitions every three months they do where they

798
00:53:45,360 --> 00:53:50,519
get comedians and then it's like ten
comedians, we battle it out best five

799
00:53:50,599 --> 00:53:53,360
minutes. Whoever wins wins. You
know, they do the top funniest at

800
00:53:53,360 --> 00:53:58,239
them all on Tuesday. That basically, Yeah, but I mean, and

801
00:53:58,280 --> 00:54:01,000
so this is by audience react.
Yeah, so audience. They got the

802
00:54:01,199 --> 00:54:07,159
talent manager and the bookers and the
clubs they'll they'll raid it and judge it.

803
00:54:07,199 --> 00:54:08,679
And also they do yeah. So
yeah, it's a little bit of

804
00:54:08,719 --> 00:54:12,719
both. Yeah, because I know
a lot of times, you know open

805
00:54:12,760 --> 00:54:15,440
mic stuff. I always thought open
mike was a little bit unfair at times

806
00:54:15,480 --> 00:54:17,880
because if I packed the room with
my friends, no matter what, I

807
00:54:17,920 --> 00:54:21,199
get up there and stick the microphone
with my ass and fart. They're gonna

808
00:54:21,280 --> 00:54:24,360
laugh, and somebody who's really trying
to hone something or work on it that

809
00:54:24,440 --> 00:54:28,760
doesn't get the same reaction. And
sometimes I just think that's not fair.

810
00:54:29,039 --> 00:54:30,960
Now, if you can walk into
a room full of strangers or at a

811
00:54:30,960 --> 00:54:36,039
competition like that where some people pack
the room and you make them laugh,

812
00:54:36,519 --> 00:54:38,760
you're on your way. Yeah,
I've seen you do that. That's yeah.

813
00:54:38,760 --> 00:54:43,880
I appreciate that. Because I didn't
know anybody last year in Rochester.

814
00:54:43,920 --> 00:54:46,599
I just started doing comedy and I
made to the second round, which is

815
00:54:46,639 --> 00:54:51,480
good. I didn't bring anybody out. So what do you think? I

816
00:54:51,519 --> 00:54:53,320
think I got robbed in that second
round? Were you there for the second

817
00:54:53,400 --> 00:54:58,440
round? I was, and it
was close. It was close there.

818
00:54:58,679 --> 00:55:00,719
I don't remember if it was Bill. I didn't see. I didn't see

819
00:55:00,760 --> 00:55:04,800
the scoring. Well that's why I
think I really will say I will see

820
00:55:04,800 --> 00:55:07,719
this comedy of the Carlson does a
nice job with this job and the red

821
00:55:07,840 --> 00:55:12,719
and what they do is they you
have to vote for three. Now you

822
00:55:12,760 --> 00:55:15,440
get to put down a one for
your favorite and then but you have to

823
00:55:15,519 --> 00:55:21,320
vote for three. So that way
there isn't we'll call it nepotism, right,

824
00:55:21,599 --> 00:55:25,079
my friend or whomever, and that
way the other people and usually evens

825
00:55:25,079 --> 00:55:28,320
out. It's a smart way to
do it. That is, he does

826
00:55:28,320 --> 00:55:30,920
a really nice job with that kind
of shout out to the comedy at the

827
00:55:30,960 --> 00:55:39,519
Carlson they're awesome. Yeah, I
don't know who's behind. Uh, they're

828
00:55:39,559 --> 00:55:42,679
awesome. And like you said,
that is a good thing about the thing,

829
00:55:42,679 --> 00:55:45,039
because the competition is that if you're
not bringing the people out, you're

830
00:55:45,079 --> 00:55:49,320
trying to get these second place votes
from people that come out, and that

831
00:55:49,440 --> 00:55:52,119
will balance out the score. I
was only doing comedy for a couple of

832
00:55:52,159 --> 00:55:53,920
weeks at the time, so just
to make it a couple of weeks,

833
00:55:54,079 --> 00:55:57,400
yeah, just a couple of weeks, so just to make it a second

834
00:55:57,480 --> 00:55:59,559
round. I was just happy enough. I didn't think I was gonna make

835
00:55:59,559 --> 00:56:04,880
a past for Yeah. Now your
passion it is, right, I like

836
00:56:05,000 --> 00:56:07,000
it. I like it. And
now you got to know some people,

837
00:56:07,119 --> 00:56:12,239
right, yeah, now now I
do, Uh, yes, kind of.

838
00:56:14,440 --> 00:56:16,519
I'm one of these people. I
put my foot in my mouth too

839
00:56:16,559 --> 00:56:21,159
many times and I ruined a lot
of things. But I'm learning, you

840
00:56:21,199 --> 00:56:25,199
know, I'm getting my back.
I was. I had my one encounter

841
00:56:25,280 --> 00:56:30,960
with comedy personal was back in the
last Ryder Cup the head at Old Kill.

842
00:56:30,000 --> 00:56:32,440
I think it was nineteen ninety three. They hit. One of my

843
00:56:32,480 --> 00:56:37,480
clients had a great, big party
with five hundred guests that is rank whatever.

844
00:56:37,480 --> 00:56:42,519
It was at his home and I
happen to have met George Carlin there.

845
00:56:42,639 --> 00:56:45,800
At the time, I thought it
was pretty damn so George, yeah,

846
00:56:45,840 --> 00:56:49,320
now, no, I'm not going
to try to be rude here,

847
00:56:49,559 --> 00:56:52,360
but it was nineteen ninety five.
I only know that because it was the

848
00:56:52,440 --> 00:56:58,079
plane. But his manager is from
Rochester. Oh yeah, that's probably connection.

849
00:56:58,239 --> 00:57:00,679
Yes, it was a connection.
And then I had spoke to George

850
00:57:00,679 --> 00:57:06,199
a few times on the phone for
interviews and things. But the principle of

851
00:57:06,239 --> 00:57:08,599
my high school grew up with the
guy. Yeah, so he talked about

852
00:57:08,599 --> 00:57:12,199
it. But George was one of
a guy. Now, he could have

853
00:57:12,320 --> 00:57:15,639
used a little fashion tip there.
Oh Wally, wow, you see him.

854
00:57:15,639 --> 00:57:19,079
The guy looks like he sometimes he
rolled out from under as he had

855
00:57:19,079 --> 00:57:22,119
a black sued on. It just
still happened to have a black suit on

856
00:57:22,199 --> 00:57:27,320
that he must have thought was pretty
chic or something. But I've seen I've

857
00:57:27,360 --> 00:57:35,800
seen Persian rugs. Then he didn't
either he was. He was on top

858
00:57:35,840 --> 00:57:37,920
of his game. Yeah, he
was on top of his game. Who's

859
00:57:38,320 --> 00:57:42,000
who would be? You know,
we mentioned George Carlin, But who's somebody

860
00:57:42,039 --> 00:57:45,960
that was an influence on you in
comedy? Uh? Comedy influences. I

861
00:57:45,000 --> 00:57:47,920
like Dave Chappelle. Yeah, Dave
Chappelle, Cat will I was gonna say

862
00:57:49,119 --> 00:57:52,000
Dave Chappelle was he he washing?
He was a DC guy? Yeah,

863
00:57:52,039 --> 00:57:57,159
hez guy. Um, Dave Chappelle, Cat Williams. I like a lot

864
00:57:57,159 --> 00:58:00,440
of newer comics to Mark Norman,
Yeah, Mark, you got you know

865
00:58:00,519 --> 00:58:04,960
Mark so funny, so funny,
good guy. Um. Yeah. I

866
00:58:05,000 --> 00:58:07,280
didn't really watch too much comedy growing
up. I just seen like some of

867
00:58:07,320 --> 00:58:12,159
the big people. I snuck in
one time to see Kevin Hart at when

868
00:58:12,159 --> 00:58:15,440
I was in college. He was
amazing. I was all the way at

869
00:58:15,480 --> 00:58:19,960
the like the top of the like
auditorium, and he's so short. The

870
00:58:20,000 --> 00:58:22,320
only thing I could see was like
his chain. It was just like sparkling.

871
00:58:22,719 --> 00:58:25,760
It was crazy. He was so
funny. I would have you ever

872
00:58:25,800 --> 00:58:30,400
watched any Richard Pryor? Oh yeah, I was just watching Richard Pryor to

873
00:58:30,400 --> 00:58:32,679
honestly, yeah, live live in
the sunset strip to me is one of

874
00:58:32,719 --> 00:58:36,320
the greatest ever. And I meant
to pull some of the audio from that

875
00:58:36,440 --> 00:58:40,840
because James Jim Brown died. Yeah
Jim Brown. Yeah, Jim Brown,

876
00:58:40,920 --> 00:58:45,519
who was a running back at Syracuse
big lacrosse player, played with Cleveland,

877
00:58:45,639 --> 00:58:49,599
but he was a good friend of
Richard Pryor's. And Richter does a whole

878
00:58:49,639 --> 00:58:52,159
thing where he talks about where he
burned himself up free basing cocaine and he

879
00:58:52,239 --> 00:58:55,559
said the emergency and Jim Brown shows
up. He goes, what are you

880
00:58:55,599 --> 00:58:59,679
doing? Man? You know I
was just a It's a great bit.

881
00:59:00,039 --> 00:59:02,239
Maybe I'll dig that up and we'll
play that tomorrow. It's a good guy.

882
00:59:02,400 --> 00:59:05,920
This should be a good show for
you guys, I think. So

883
00:59:06,000 --> 00:59:07,679
a great way to celebrate your birthday. It's gonna be awesome. It's a

884
00:59:07,760 --> 00:59:12,159
late show, um, so you
know you could do all your Memorial Day

885

940
01:02:57,880 --> 01:03:06,119
But I don't call it a coupe
back. I'm making the teams like

941
01:03:06,159 --> 01:03:32,599
a practicing da Damn damn. The
price MoMA should knock you out. According

942
01:03:32,599 --> 01:03:37,360
to the Times of Wayne County,
and that's what a newer mom was arrestler

943
01:03:37,440 --> 01:03:39,679
for promoting a juvenile fight. That's
what the headline says. Now, I

944
01:03:39,760 --> 01:03:46,400
have a theory that the Times of
Wayne County just gets the police report and

945
01:03:46,440 --> 01:03:51,760
does no further investigation into what goes
on. And I they're nice people,

946
01:03:51,800 --> 01:03:55,159
that's fine, But being the guy
and I will say that all the stuff

947
01:03:55,199 --> 01:03:59,480
that you hear about three and five
in the local media, I'm gonna,

948
01:03:59,559 --> 01:04:01,239
I'm gonna, I'm gonna whip my
dick out here and tell you that that

949
01:04:01,320 --> 01:04:06,719
was it's because of me. In
nineteen ninety nine, when Walter Casper sent

950
01:04:06,760 --> 01:04:11,440
his wife over a cliff and another
guy fell off the roof and landed on

951
01:04:11,440 --> 01:04:14,360
an ADT sign and impaled himself,
and I go, what is going on?

952
01:04:14,440 --> 01:04:17,079
In three one five? And people
started calling people, Yeah, listen,

953
01:04:17,119 --> 01:04:20,719
Natasha. People started calling up my
radio show, going we call him

954
01:04:20,840 --> 01:04:25,280
somebody goes, we call him nine
ers three plus one plus five equals nine.

955
01:04:25,639 --> 01:04:28,920
And then so we started this thing. Somebody said, you gotta look

956
01:04:28,920 --> 01:04:30,960
at the Times of Wayne County.
This this is over twenty three years ago,

957
01:04:31,320 --> 01:04:34,719
right. So I look at it
and there's a picture and it's these

958
01:04:34,719 --> 01:04:38,199
two police. They're very proud of
a drug bust. And they're in the

959
01:04:38,199 --> 01:04:42,400
bedroom of this house where they did
the bust, and right behind them as

960
01:04:42,440 --> 01:04:45,679
a giant dealt on the dresser,
very visible in the picture. So we

961
01:04:45,719 --> 01:04:49,719
started this whole thing three one five. We had shirts made up and I

962
01:04:49,880 --> 01:04:53,440
know that you know, the credit
may go to other people. But I'm

963
01:04:53,480 --> 01:04:57,199
just telling you that's where the ship
started. And so there you go.

964
01:04:57,519 --> 01:05:00,480
But yeah, I've heard of everybody
in Wayne County referred to the three one

965
01:05:00,559 --> 01:05:03,280
five verse my whole life, your
whole life. Yes, well, I

966
01:05:03,920 --> 01:05:09,840
would think that's the case. Now
according may I read the blurb that is

967
01:05:09,920 --> 01:05:13,760
under your photo in the Times Wayne
County and if anybody has an issue of

968
01:05:13,800 --> 01:05:17,000
the Times Wayne County is the May
twenty first issue, page C three.

969
01:05:17,800 --> 01:05:21,719
Yeah, go ahead, says Newark
Village. Police reported the arrest on Wednesday

970
01:05:21,960 --> 01:05:26,360
at ten twenty five in ten twenty
five in the morning. Who gets arrested

971
01:05:26,360 --> 01:05:32,280
at ten twenty five in the morning, Natasha, Well, that's when they

972
01:05:32,440 --> 01:05:35,519
That's when I had went down there, because they actually stopped at my house

973
01:05:36,039 --> 01:05:41,480
the like a couple of nights before, just stopped by and said, hey,

974
01:05:41,880 --> 01:05:45,199
um, the DA wants to charge
you with that. So sat down

975
01:05:45,239 --> 01:05:47,039
to the station. When you got
some time, okay, So when you

976
01:05:47,079 --> 01:05:49,320
got some time, so you got
to turn yourself in And did you have

977
01:05:49,320 --> 01:05:53,760
to pay like one hundred dollars or
something at the moment, No, no,

978
01:05:53,880 --> 01:06:00,199
okay, I've been Natasha, age
thirty four, of Newark. It

979
01:06:00,320 --> 01:06:03,599
is alleged that, while present at
a fight between her son and another juvenile

980
01:06:03,800 --> 01:06:16,559
at Perkins Park, Stringham promoted the
two to fight. She became king Don

981
01:06:16,679 --> 01:06:21,760
king Uh. Stringham was charged with
endangering the welfare of a child and released

982
01:06:21,760 --> 01:06:26,400
on an appearance ticket for the Newark
Village Court in June twenty Who blew you

983
01:06:26,400 --> 01:06:30,800
in? Um? Well, so
there was a couple of kids there that

984
01:06:30,000 --> 01:06:34,960
recorded it. Of course, all
these wonderful camera phones that everybody has now,

985
01:06:35,760 --> 01:06:40,199
um so they all recorded that,
and the kid had went home and

986
01:06:40,280 --> 01:06:43,559
he had told his mom. But
so the mom had called the cobs.

987
01:06:43,599 --> 01:06:45,800
Of course, the taps come to
my house that night and the phaps say,

988
01:06:45,880 --> 01:06:49,639
while there's nothing. We watched the
video, there's nothing criminally that we

989
01:06:49,760 --> 01:06:54,159
can do it at both miners,
you wouldn't put your hands on nobody.

990
01:06:54,320 --> 01:06:58,360
So there's really no criminal charges that
they want something done. So we got

991
01:06:58,360 --> 01:07:03,719
to hand it over to CCS.
So next that's Child Protective Services. Yeah

992
01:07:03,880 --> 01:07:10,079
yeah, So see if he has
just involved and I'm going I'm dealing with

993
01:07:10,119 --> 01:07:17,760
them, They're trying to find me
on inadequate guardianship. In inadequate what guardianship?

994
01:07:18,000 --> 01:07:24,840
Oh I thought you said gardening.
Oh no, no, flowers are

995
01:07:24,840 --> 01:07:29,360
awful. Man, you got too
many weeds. Okay, So that's gardening

996
01:07:29,920 --> 01:07:31,920
guardian. So you're in terms of
guardianship, I got you, okay,

997
01:07:32,280 --> 01:07:38,519
inadequate guardianship. In other words,
you're a bad mama. I guess that's

998
01:07:38,519 --> 01:07:43,280
what they're trying to say. Yeah, that's and and and in the eyes

999
01:07:43,519 --> 01:07:46,760
of this this new gentrified world that
we wore in a panky that was bad

1000
01:07:46,840 --> 01:07:51,159
there. Okay, so why don't
so let me just see if I get

1001
01:07:51,199 --> 01:07:55,800
this straight. You were at the
park. Were you there to pick your

1002
01:07:55,880 --> 01:07:59,760
kids up? No? So this
is how it happened. So we live

1003
01:08:00,280 --> 01:08:02,639
like a half a block from the
park, so it literally takes my kids

1004
01:08:02,760 --> 01:08:06,880
probably a minute if that to get
to the park. Okay, So they

1005
01:08:06,920 --> 01:08:12,000
leave here, My ten year old
and his friend Louis that here here daily

1006
01:08:12,559 --> 01:08:15,479
they go to the park. They
come back with him not even five minutes.

1007
01:08:16,640 --> 01:08:20,119
So they're like, oh, Colton
and his friend case us out of

1008
01:08:20,119 --> 01:08:23,840
the park. They decide that we
couldn't come back, that we can't play

1009
01:08:23,880 --> 01:08:26,520
there. If we come back there, they're going to jump out. Now

1010
01:08:26,560 --> 01:08:30,199
there's there's Qulton kid. We've had
problems with him. Some once. Now.

1011
01:08:30,479 --> 01:08:33,439
It was even to the point where
my friend that um Louie's mom,

1012
01:08:33,560 --> 01:08:36,079
the one that was with him the
day that they went to the park,

1013
01:08:36,720 --> 01:08:41,319
they all went to his house trying
to jump him with a bunch of friends.

1014
01:08:41,359 --> 01:08:43,880
He was at work. How old
are they? How old are these

1015
01:08:43,960 --> 01:08:47,399
kids? So Michael and Louie are
ten, they're ten years old and they're

1016
01:08:47,479 --> 01:08:51,039
jump at each other. Ten years
old. I don't even listen. My

1017
01:08:51,079 --> 01:08:54,600
boys, don't Michael. And this
is the first time theyme. But this

1018
01:08:54,640 --> 01:08:57,800
is the only time they've ever had
any problems with any any kids. And

1019
01:08:58,079 --> 01:09:00,399
these kids are in sixth grade.
Thought, my kids are are in sports.

1020
01:09:00,720 --> 01:09:03,399
So the kids that have been bowling
them go. The Colton kid and

1021
01:09:03,399 --> 01:09:09,880
his friends they have a gang apparently
is called DFL Brothers for Life anyways,

1022
01:09:10,079 --> 01:09:15,880
and you're carried out in the body. Yeah, So Coltland and his BFL

1023
01:09:15,960 --> 01:09:19,079
gang are the ones that are bowling, and the little kids they're they're sixth

1024
01:09:19,119 --> 01:09:24,680
graders. So and they get off
on this. The cop said that night,

1025
01:09:24,760 --> 01:09:29,920
he told me that these kids go
around and they they they mess with

1026
01:09:29,960 --> 01:09:31,880
people, adults too, he said, And to the point where when they

1027
01:09:32,079 --> 01:09:35,079
when somebody retaliates. They play the
victim, and but they're they're the ones

1028
01:09:35,119 --> 01:09:38,800
in trouble because they're the adult in
the situation. He said, this has

1029
01:09:38,840 --> 01:09:43,279
happened a couple of times with the
same kids they've seen. They seeing will

1030
01:09:43,359 --> 01:09:47,960
Gang are kids that call themselves DFL
would it's ridiculous. So anyways, so

1031
01:09:48,159 --> 01:09:51,520
they they going on to the park. They chased them out of the parks.

1032
01:09:51,520 --> 01:09:54,680
That kids come back here and they
tell me, Hey, Coltland and

1033
01:09:54,680 --> 01:09:57,199
is getting a friend told us that
he can't play in the park, And

1034
01:09:57,399 --> 01:10:00,079
like, oh, well, I
was on the other subject. Sorry,

1035
01:09:59,760 --> 01:10:02,760
I I got sidetracked. My friend
had contacted the school where I'm going to

1036
01:10:02,920 --> 01:10:06,119
her house and she's like, hey, this kid keeps messing with our kids.

1037
01:10:06,199 --> 01:10:10,600
We want to know their parents' names
so that we can contact them and

1038
01:10:10,640 --> 01:10:14,279
we can discuss this matter. The
school tells them that they can't tell her,

1039
01:10:14,319 --> 01:10:16,520
that they can't give out any information
that they would handle that they knew

1040
01:10:16,520 --> 01:10:20,159
exactly who we were talking about,
and they would handle it. The school

1041
01:10:20,199 --> 01:10:24,359
would handle it. Yeah, that's
what the school side. Okay, I

1042
01:10:24,359 --> 01:10:29,119
can understand where nowadays you can't give
out information. I mean somebody right,

1043
01:10:29,159 --> 01:10:32,479
there's some crazy people in the world. Yeah, okay, so they say

1044
01:10:32,520 --> 01:10:34,960
they would handle it. Well,
we don't hear anything back on her.

1045
01:10:35,279 --> 01:10:38,399
So fast forward, it's fine,
like a month or so. You know,

1046
01:10:38,439 --> 01:10:42,680
every every every time this kid sees
our boys, they take them around,

1047
01:10:42,720 --> 01:10:45,840
you know where, pretending like they're
going to fight them. They've never

1048
01:10:45,880 --> 01:10:47,960
really actually done anything. Okay,
but that's what they pretend they're going to

1049
01:10:48,039 --> 01:10:53,840
do, you know. Yeah.
So, um, that day they had

1050
01:10:53,840 --> 01:10:56,680
come back and told me I just
had Enoughingly, all right, We're gonna

1051
01:10:56,680 --> 01:10:58,520
going on to the park. I'm
gonna foss the school and I'm going to

1052
01:10:58,560 --> 01:11:00,960
see what the how this kid's problement? Like, why do you keep messing

1053
01:11:00,960 --> 01:11:02,319
with downy? Did they do something? Can we can we figure out?

1054
01:11:02,600 --> 01:11:05,199
Can we can we have a peace
treaty here or something? So you were

1055
01:11:05,239 --> 01:11:10,039
trying to do what an adult would
do. This is almost like I can

1056
01:11:10,399 --> 01:11:15,199
you know, I'm thinking of any
family sitcom where you're gonna go down calmly

1057
01:11:15,239 --> 01:11:17,520
and try to talk to the bully
as the parent, Yeah, and it

1058
01:11:17,640 --> 01:11:26,000
all blows up in your face.
Parents ask only that the bully goat whooped

1059
01:11:26,000 --> 01:11:30,239
out this time? Oh okay,
but the whole that was the whole whole

1060
01:11:30,560 --> 01:11:34,439
you know, idea was to go
down there and try to be like,

1061
01:11:34,479 --> 01:11:39,239
why can't we all get along?
But the way that these kids, these

1062
01:11:39,279 --> 01:11:43,920
two adults, now, it's just
so what do the what did the kids

1063
01:11:43,920 --> 01:11:46,760
say to you? So we get
down there and I'm like, you know,

1064
01:11:46,840 --> 01:11:49,399
they're they're all playing in the field. I think they're playing kick while

1065
01:11:49,479 --> 01:11:51,560
or something. And then get out
of the car and the kids, you

1066
01:11:51,600 --> 01:11:55,079
know, come up behind me and
I like, you, guys, what

1067
01:11:55,239 --> 01:11:58,399
is the problem here? And I've
seen one of the boys when my kids

1068
01:11:58,520 --> 01:12:01,319
wrestling, and I've seen one of
the boys they actually teaches like he's like,

1069
01:12:01,399 --> 01:12:04,560
you know, like a little assistant
culture or whatever, and teaches the

1070
01:12:04,600 --> 01:12:08,000
boys and wrestling. And I'm like, you know, dude, what what

1071
01:12:08,039 --> 01:12:10,239
are you doing out here? Boling? He said, you keep him wrestling

1072
01:12:10,239 --> 01:12:12,479
everything? You know, every week
And he's like, no, I just

1073
01:12:12,560 --> 01:12:14,319
got here. It wasn't me.
And I was like, okay, my

1074
01:12:14,399 --> 01:12:17,199
bad. And then the other kids, the other kids, Uh, the

1075
01:12:17,199 --> 01:12:21,199
one starts laughing and he said,
that's why Michael's pussy for telling his mom.

1076
01:12:21,760 --> 01:12:27,319
Oh yeah, see someone went home
and yeah, you know what happened

1077
01:12:27,479 --> 01:12:30,680
now? No wait, wait,
wait, wait, let's play. Let's

1078
01:12:30,720 --> 01:12:33,439
play mad lives for a minute here, Natasha, you fill in the blank.

1079
01:12:33,479 --> 01:12:40,720
You ready, bitches get I mean
snitches, get sitches. Yeah,

1080
01:12:40,760 --> 01:12:47,640
I know, I'm not I'm not
sure. Sometimes I day, yeah,

1081
01:12:47,640 --> 01:12:53,119
that's true. I'm sorry, but
there I mean, yeah, but he's

1082
01:12:53,159 --> 01:12:56,159
he's a katie was trying to do
thing, you know. And and then

1083
01:12:56,359 --> 01:12:59,039
in the police's eyes, that's the
way that it is a band. He

1084
01:12:59,159 --> 01:13:01,199
wasn't yeh kid? If he would
have stuck up from soup there without me

1085
01:13:01,319 --> 01:13:04,960
too, they all would have jumped
in. So so what so what happens

1086
01:13:05,039 --> 01:13:09,680
when they call your kid a pussy? Okay? So then I said,

1087
01:13:09,720 --> 01:13:14,199
I said pussy? I said,
pussy is being a group of jag sixth

1088
01:13:14,239 --> 01:13:17,439
traders chasing around sixteenth semis traders,
chasing around fourth traders, trying to jump

1089
01:13:17,439 --> 01:13:21,479
on for no reason. What did
your guys reason? And nobody had not

1090
01:13:21,600 --> 01:13:26,960
in and Calton's laughing, and which
tours fad and I said, and furthermore

1091
01:13:27,079 --> 01:13:29,439
more, Calton, I said,
if you were to fight Michael one on

1092
01:13:29,520 --> 01:13:31,640
what he whoop your ass? And
that's where I fucked up. He come

1093
01:13:31,720 --> 01:13:35,840
off, come off the field with
his hands up and his happy little smirk

1094
01:13:35,920 --> 01:13:42,000
and he's like, all right,
then let's go. And Michael put his

1095
01:13:42,079 --> 01:13:46,520
bike down and they started to tax
them. Okay, okay, so the

1096
01:13:46,640 --> 01:13:49,840
kid fought. I won't say.
That doesn't sound that bad to me.

1097
01:13:49,960 --> 01:13:53,439
I mean it almost sounds like,
you know, let's put an end to

1098
01:13:53,520 --> 01:13:58,000
this. And I don't know you. All you said was if you were

1099
01:13:58,079 --> 01:14:00,760
too And so the kid comes out
and challenges and now, well, now

1100
01:14:00,840 --> 01:14:03,039
he's kind of calling your bluff.
Right now, you got to let your

1101
01:14:03,079 --> 01:14:08,439
kid go. Say, I look
at Michael, and Michael, you look

1102
01:14:08,439 --> 01:14:10,479
at your kid, and you go, don't be a pushy Michael. Get

1103
01:14:10,520 --> 01:14:14,079
out there to me, Michael.
But no, he was ready. He

1104
01:14:14,279 --> 01:14:15,760
was like, yeah, I want
I wouldn't get at this kid. You

1105
01:14:15,840 --> 01:14:18,880
know, so hypothetically, what happens
if your son gets his ass whooped?

1106
01:14:19,960 --> 01:14:23,359
If he's got it, if he
was getting his butt whoop, that's he

1107
01:14:23,399 --> 01:14:25,479
would have had. He would have
had to go home and work out a

1108
01:14:25,520 --> 01:14:27,720
little bit more. He would have
had to take that out. I wasn't

1109
01:14:27,760 --> 01:14:33,640
going to jump in have to take
the el, so you would have out.

1110
01:14:33,920 --> 01:14:39,840
Did he lose? He did not, And I think that's why they're

1111
01:14:39,880 --> 01:14:42,000
so mad. That's what I said. That's why I pulled the cop.

1112
01:14:42,079 --> 01:14:44,359
I said, if their kid would
have got the best of mine, I

1113
01:14:44,439 --> 01:14:46,039
bet they wouldn't even be mad at
me right now. They would have told

1114
01:14:46,079 --> 01:14:48,119
me that I got what I deserved, or he would have got what he

1115
01:14:48,199 --> 01:14:51,640
deserved, whatever the case, maybe
they wouldn't even best. That's the way

1116
01:14:51,640 --> 01:14:59,520
they are so were How much is
all this potentially costing you? I have

1117
01:15:00,279 --> 01:15:04,760
I don't even know. Apparently a
low sphere of cards. I don't know.

1118
01:15:04,880 --> 01:15:10,079
I gotta go to court for on
the twenty first or something like that.

1119
01:15:11,119 --> 01:15:14,319
Huh. But the cop that even
books that had to do my little

1120
01:15:14,359 --> 01:15:16,239
picture and fingerprints, He's like,
I'm not going to say that. If

1121
01:15:16,279 --> 01:15:18,319
that was my kid, I wouldn't
tell him to do the thing. But

1122
01:15:18,479 --> 01:15:23,199
a crimes a crime, and if
that's the decision to chuse the mains,

1123
01:15:23,319 --> 01:15:26,640
I'm like, well, you guys
ain't sit and don't do nothing about anything

1124
01:15:26,720 --> 01:15:30,399
anyways, and my kid's not going
to be another rip sticker and you will

1125
01:15:30,479 --> 01:15:34,039
hang another stop the bullying and poster
like somebody needs to do something about this

1126
01:15:34,119 --> 01:15:39,800
stuff. Nobody does anything about it. Yeah, another r I p rest

1127
01:15:39,840 --> 01:15:43,560
In piece, not R T there's
so many in the studio who works at

1128
01:15:43,800 --> 01:15:47,920
R he goes, oh R no, no, arrested peace? Yeah,

1129
01:15:48,560 --> 01:15:51,159
pie, yes, because you know
it's so bad a little you know,

1130
01:15:51,239 --> 01:15:55,920
kids, they're literally taking my light
over the bullying shit. And I'm not

1131
01:15:56,000 --> 01:15:59,319
going to tell my kid to keep
keep keep your mouth at just stay away

1132
01:15:59,359 --> 01:16:00,560
from them. No. He has
just as much great to play at the

1133
01:16:00,600 --> 01:16:09,239
damn park as you do. Yeah. So this see where the headline is

1134
01:16:09,239 --> 01:16:13,479
a bit misleading. It's not like
she was promoting a fight where we have

1135
01:16:13,640 --> 01:16:16,720
seen videos. We have seen videos
where there's a mom on the side of

1136
01:16:16,800 --> 01:16:20,560
the lawn screaming at her daughter to
go and beat the shit out of this

1137
01:16:20,880 --> 01:16:25,800
you kick her at poll and then
the mother can't take it anymore and the

1138
01:16:25,880 --> 01:16:32,119
mom jumps in, And that's what
this headline starts. No, of course

1139
01:16:32,159 --> 01:16:35,119
she would, but I'm just saying
that that's what this headline conjures up.

1140
01:16:35,159 --> 01:16:39,359
And that's why I always think like
there are certain times where you want to

1141
01:16:39,800 --> 01:16:42,239
kind of go beyond the headline and
find out what the real story is.

1142
01:16:42,279 --> 01:16:45,119
And this is a mom trying to
protect your kid, and also at the

1143
01:16:45,199 --> 01:16:49,479
same time, maybe it's old school
nowadays, but the whole thing was don't

1144
01:16:49,520 --> 01:16:53,279
start the fight, but finish the
fight and stand up to the bully,

1145
01:16:53,520 --> 01:16:58,399
and the bullying ends, and uh
maybe that maybe that'll happen. Now it

1146
01:16:58,520 --> 01:17:00,960
did happened, and we haven't heard
of he's from the kid. And that's

1147
01:17:00,960 --> 01:17:02,279
what I told the cap. I
said, we asked the school to handle

1148
01:17:02,359 --> 01:17:04,880
it, and it never stopped.
It said, now that we handle it,

1149
01:17:04,960 --> 01:17:08,800
I mean, and I did.
I did take it a little too

1150
01:17:08,920 --> 01:17:11,640
far. I'm not gonna lie.
So during their fight, you know,

1151
01:17:11,760 --> 01:17:15,239
my son wrestles, so he was
just pretty much wrestling him. He was

1152
01:17:15,279 --> 01:17:16,840
getting the best of them. I
could see the kid was getting tired out,

1153
01:17:16,920 --> 01:17:19,439
you know, and the kids trying
their skip punching stuff, and he

1154
01:17:19,800 --> 01:17:23,560
got you know, a little punch
in the ribs or something, but Michael

1155
01:17:23,640 --> 01:17:27,399
was holding him with his weight.
So I was about to stop because I

1156
01:17:27,439 --> 01:17:29,840
did stop it. It's not like
I let the kid walk away bloody,

1157
01:17:29,880 --> 01:17:31,800
and I learned anybody get their ass
whoop. You know. His eagle might

1158
01:17:31,840 --> 01:17:34,319
have been a little hurt, but
that was about it. Nobody was really

1159
01:17:34,680 --> 01:17:36,920
hurt. But he was wrestling him, and I said, all right,

1160
01:17:36,920 --> 01:17:45,520
Michael, now hid him, and
oh, Natasha and Natasha and the nasty

1161
01:17:45,680 --> 01:17:48,960
Natasha. So when does your second
addition into the gang the gang's ass.

1162
01:17:49,800 --> 01:17:54,960
Well, so these kids come come
after the fight, about twenty minutes after

1163
01:17:55,079 --> 01:17:58,000
the fight, and now that were
in the game, and they said,

1164
01:17:58,039 --> 01:18:00,239
well not in Colton gang no more. I do beat them up and they

1165
01:18:00,279 --> 01:18:12,079
all went out to pizzas. We
need your heat. How gangs were.

1166
01:18:15,600 --> 01:18:18,479
Calton's got a new gag. It's
called the cry Babies. Culton's cry Babies.

1167
01:18:18,920 --> 01:18:23,000
That's funny. Now do you want
to tell her your theory? Kevin?

1168
01:18:23,720 --> 01:18:26,560
Oh, they've got you featured.
Yeah, you're You're definitely you got

1169
01:18:26,640 --> 01:18:32,840
the big close up picture your next
time is this your mug shots? Okay,

1170
01:18:32,880 --> 01:18:39,479
well you're not not compared to bad
decisions and day and I don't know

1171
01:18:39,680 --> 01:18:43,720
what the other yea ones in there. That's what my friends had. You

1172
01:18:43,800 --> 01:18:45,880
said, Well, at least you're
the best book and one in the well.

1173
01:18:45,039 --> 01:18:48,800
See that, And that's what we
think we I think that's what stood

1174
01:18:48,800 --> 01:18:55,000
out. Somebody last night saw your
picture and goes, I can't look at

1175
01:18:55,079 --> 01:18:58,920
this person in the mug shot and
go she's not promoting a fight with her

1176
01:18:58,960 --> 01:19:03,359
fucking kids. There's no way I'm
trying to show on camera the picture for

1177
01:19:03,439 --> 01:19:08,600
people to see her face. Um, yeah, I mean, you're right,

1178
01:19:08,960 --> 01:19:11,479
it's one of the best looking mot
shots you'll ever see. I am

1179
01:19:11,600 --> 01:19:15,079
also intrigued you find the fact that
there's so many people smiling, and there're

1180
01:19:15,079 --> 01:19:19,720
three one five mug shots in this
paper. There's at least smiling smile on

1181
01:19:19,800 --> 01:19:23,640
that munthshot too. I was supposed
to smile on that munthshot, but I

1182
01:19:23,760 --> 01:19:30,520
forgot because kind of gave him sassy
instead of happy. I was, all

1183
01:19:30,600 --> 01:19:32,800
right, Well, I just can't
believe the top is that they're telling me

1184
01:19:32,920 --> 01:19:36,079
like he agrees with the way that
it was handled, and he probably would

1185
01:19:36,079 --> 01:19:40,479
have did the same thing, but
then telling me that regardless on the circumstances

1186
01:19:40,600 --> 01:19:44,319
leading up to what happened, a
crime is a crime. And I'm like,

1187
01:19:45,720 --> 01:19:48,199
I don't know, I just don't
see the fairness or the justice in

1188
01:19:48,319 --> 01:19:53,079
any of that. Yeah, well, no, there is no fairness or

1189
01:19:53,119 --> 01:19:55,640
justice, And there actually should be
a way where I mean, like,

1190
01:19:55,960 --> 01:20:00,600
I have three sons, uh two
or older now and there are only twenties,

1191
01:20:00,159 --> 01:20:04,000
and when they were little and things
would happen, the parents would talk

1192
01:20:04,039 --> 01:20:06,960
and try to settle it out between
the guys, and that would be you

1193
01:20:08,039 --> 01:20:10,119
know, hey, you know,
hey, we got a little issue,

1194
01:20:10,119 --> 01:20:12,319
all right, Yeah, we'd work
it out. There was none, none

1195
01:20:12,319 --> 01:20:14,520
of this bullshit. Now. I
also did tell you that I had a

1196
01:20:14,640 --> 01:20:17,560
kid that recently got in a fight
in school and uh, suspended for five

1197
01:20:17,680 --> 01:20:21,880
days. But that was He lives
with his mom, and I think there's

1198
01:20:21,920 --> 01:20:26,600
been some issues similar to what your
kids were experiencing there too, And I

1199
01:20:26,680 --> 01:20:30,960
think, you know, Jamison wants
to show his boxing skills. I don't

1200
01:20:31,000 --> 01:20:33,960
know one of it, but yeah, I mean, and did you ask

1201
01:20:34,039 --> 01:20:36,640
him now? Does the bulling match
with him? I bet he solved the

1202
01:20:36,720 --> 01:20:41,800
problem? Uh? Yeah, I
don't. I don't know. I hadn't

1203
01:20:41,880 --> 01:20:45,600
really asked. I think because where
he lives, school is pretty much done,

1204
01:20:45,000 --> 01:20:48,680
so he was suspended like the last
week of classroom instruction, So I

1205
01:20:48,880 --> 01:20:53,239
don't know. I think he goes
back next week and I'll find out.

1206
01:20:53,720 --> 01:20:55,960
I love the story and I love
the passion, but I think my entire

1207
01:20:56,000 --> 01:20:59,399
takeaway from this is the fact that
she just admitted that the newer police and

1208
01:20:59,479 --> 01:21:02,239
the three one five police want their
mug shots to have smiles. That makes

1209
01:21:02,319 --> 01:21:06,880
me chuckle. Do they do they
tell you to smile, Natasha, No,

1210
01:21:08,159 --> 01:21:11,159
I wanted to smile on that mug
shot because I was actually proud for

1211
01:21:11,640 --> 01:21:15,359
for the way that I mean.
No, I wasn't proud for the way

1212
01:21:15,399 --> 01:21:16,840
that I handled it. I could
have handled it way better. Yeah,

1213
01:21:17,000 --> 01:21:23,560
but people don't heap anybody to stand
up for themselves. Like it's always just

1214
01:21:24,359 --> 01:21:26,880
I don't know, just a shut
up and walk away. I shot up

1215
01:21:26,920 --> 01:21:30,520
and walk away. But then that's
why all these all this bullying is happening,

1216
01:21:30,640 --> 01:21:32,800
and they want to hang all these
posters bully free zones. That works

1217
01:21:32,840 --> 01:21:35,760
about as good as their damn drug
free zones. Okay, like, yeah,

1218
01:21:36,079 --> 01:21:39,600
it gets it gets nowhere as I'm
hanging these posters. Wait wait,

1219
01:21:39,600 --> 01:21:42,039
wait, wait wait wait wait a
second, you're telling me that those drug

1220
01:21:42,159 --> 01:21:46,039
free zones aren't really drug free zones. Imagine I had no I'm still waiting

1221
01:21:46,039 --> 01:21:48,000
for the drugs and toboy I was
going to be offered as an adult.

1222
01:21:48,039 --> 01:21:50,279
I haven't seen any of those.
You're done. No, No, you're

1223
01:21:50,319 --> 01:21:55,319
not hanging out with the right people. You haven't spending three one five long

1224
01:21:55,439 --> 01:21:58,439
enough the pan Well, I don't
know what coming. What kind of drugs

1225
01:21:58,479 --> 01:22:01,079
are in three one five. I'm
I think what kind of drugs are in

1226
01:22:01,159 --> 01:22:06,199
three one five? I was gonna
say math that I'm not sure. I'm

1227
01:22:06,239 --> 01:22:09,439
not sure that I'm not. I
don't think I know so many mess at

1228
01:22:09,479 --> 01:22:17,119
it about Molly that I've heard being
around next to pills that's around. You

1229
01:22:17,239 --> 01:22:20,159
might not want to mess with dolls
over killing people. Yeah, one about

1230
01:22:20,199 --> 01:22:27,479
coke. Coke can be bad for
the with Thewhere got coke? In three

1231
01:22:27,520 --> 01:22:33,079
one five? That's everywhere they got
baking powder the cold Smarty said, somebody

1232
01:22:33,159 --> 01:22:38,319
crushed up. Well, Natasha,
you're a good sport. You have a

1233
01:22:38,439 --> 01:22:41,800
nice a nice sense of humor,
and I think your kids are gonna be

1234
01:22:41,840 --> 01:22:45,000
better off. Yes, I do
too, I just I don't know.

1235
01:22:46,600 --> 01:22:49,319
I told Michael, you have the
cops hit on you with the after the

1236
01:22:49,359 --> 01:22:54,439
mug shot, any of the cops
hit on you? Um, the cops,

1237
01:22:54,479 --> 01:22:57,840
I always got funny stuff to say
say, but they still arrest me

1238
01:22:57,920 --> 01:23:01,479
in the air until how about your
husband or baby daddy? Whatever we got

1239
01:23:01,520 --> 01:23:04,840
situation going on here? What did
he say about all this? Um?

1240
01:23:05,039 --> 01:23:09,119
He was actually with us, he
told Michael good Joy gave him a pat

1241
01:23:09,199 --> 01:23:12,600
on the back and then CPR the
fuck does he not getting any trouble.

1242
01:23:13,239 --> 01:23:17,520
Me and Michael's Dadad were not together, but he was. But you said

1243
01:23:17,560 --> 01:23:20,399
he was at the park when this
happened. Yeah, he was with us.

1244
01:23:20,479 --> 01:23:24,159
Yeah, but I guess because he
didn't. I don't know because I

1245
01:23:24,279 --> 01:23:26,720
was. I was the one that
was seen in the video. He was

1246
01:23:26,800 --> 01:23:30,479
there, Babe. A smart you
know that he knew it was. That's

1247
01:23:30,520 --> 01:23:34,319
a smart man. That's a smart
mane he suck cameras a gap behind that

1248
01:23:34,439 --> 01:23:39,680
tree. Well, Natasha, good
luck with everything. We may have to

1249
01:23:39,720 --> 01:23:43,680
follow up on June twenty first to
see what the uh what the punishment is

1250
01:23:43,840 --> 01:23:46,920
hopefully gets he's been touching. You
know, I'm hopeing that's well. My

1251
01:23:47,159 --> 01:23:53,199
my my dad and my step mom
there their little researchers, so they're they're

1252
01:23:53,279 --> 01:23:58,039
researching and all these anti bowling acts. And there was actually a boy there

1253
01:23:58,399 --> 01:24:00,439
as we took his life in Ginea
about a year ago. The boy's name

1254
01:24:00,439 --> 01:24:05,800
was gl And And you know,
the it's just the bullying is out of

1255
01:24:05,840 --> 01:24:10,680
control. Something has to be done. And me latting my kids just hustle

1256
01:24:10,760 --> 01:24:14,399
with a kid out on the ground
and this is so uncalled for. Yeah,

1257
01:24:14,800 --> 01:24:18,680
well what I'm called for for what
you did. I'm called for for

1258
01:24:18,800 --> 01:24:23,079
what I'm being charged with it two
different kinds, you know, I'm getting

1259
01:24:23,279 --> 01:24:28,039
two endangerments and then another another kind
of charge from CPS. I mean,

1260
01:24:28,079 --> 01:24:31,119
it's not really a charge, but
it's like a couple of different punishments,

1261
01:24:31,199 --> 01:24:34,479
isn't it yet that stuff at the
beginning, right, I don't either,

1262
01:24:34,600 --> 01:24:39,399
And I'm CPS contact with his father
and they're like, you know, and

1263
01:24:39,479 --> 01:24:42,039
his father tells them, well,
you're lucky I wasn't there because I probably

1264
01:24:42,039 --> 01:24:44,560
would have put the kid over my
knee and put my hands on and myself.

1265
01:24:45,560 --> 01:24:46,800
You know, my kids. My
kid did what he had to do.

1266
01:24:47,039 --> 01:24:51,000
You guys are wrong for you know, not not not dealing with the

1267
01:24:51,399 --> 01:24:57,039
actual problem here is that this kid
is bullying and and being a problem to

1268
01:24:57,159 --> 01:24:59,760
not only my kid, but other
kids in the community as well. So

1269
01:25:00,199 --> 01:25:03,720
maybe maybe you need to start an
advocacy group stand up to bullies. That's

1270
01:25:03,720 --> 01:25:11,520
what. Yeah, Like, do
people really care enough about that? You

1271
01:25:11,560 --> 01:25:14,319
know? I had a people,
a bunch of people message me privately knock

1272
01:25:14,399 --> 01:25:15,239
as me, and they're like,
hey, you know, good job.

1273
01:25:15,279 --> 01:25:18,119
We don't want to message on the
post because we don't want to be in

1274
01:25:18,159 --> 01:25:21,399
the drama, and I'm like,
thanks for the support, but I wish

1275
01:25:21,439 --> 01:25:26,640
you guys would say yeah, because
look, here here's the yeah. Well,

1276
01:25:26,680 --> 01:25:29,199
here's the problem. For a lot
of people. They don't want to

1277
01:25:29,239 --> 01:25:31,079
get involved in the drama. They
don't want to push back. But when

1278
01:25:31,119 --> 01:25:34,079
you get a bunch of people,
when you get a bunch of people,

1279
01:25:34,880 --> 01:25:38,600
they can't tell you to shut up. They can't tell you you're crazy.

1280
01:25:38,960 --> 01:25:43,399
You can't necessarily say you're wrong when
you've got a bunch of people advocating and

1281
01:25:43,600 --> 01:25:48,039
saying somewhat publicly that you are correct
in how you treated this situation with your

1282
01:25:48,119 --> 01:25:51,600
kids. And I think that's unfortunate
because a lot of times it's like,

1283
01:25:53,079 --> 01:25:54,960
you know, when all of a
sudden, they're gonna come and tell you

1284
01:25:55,000 --> 01:25:58,760
you can't be on the beach after
ten o'clock and five hundred people show up.

1285
01:25:59,159 --> 01:26:00,399
Not a lot they're gonna do to
get you out here, right,

1286
01:26:00,720 --> 01:26:04,000
as long as no one's being a
complete asshole in harming anybody who cares.

1287
01:26:04,079 --> 01:26:08,680
But I mean, just maybe it's
a bad example, but I think you're

1288
01:26:08,760 --> 01:26:11,680
you're onto something, and I wish
you a lot of luck. You seem

1289
01:26:11,720 --> 01:26:15,520
like a good you seem like a
good person. So thank for giving me.

1297
01:26:46,239 --> 01:26:50,279
to that in a second. The
time. I feel bad for it because

1298
01:26:50,279 --> 01:26:55,239
that seems like a shitty wrap,
doesn't not I get it, But also

1299
01:26:55,359 --> 01:26:59,239
you're getting one side of the story. You're there, they're they're maybe.

1300
01:26:59,279 --> 01:27:01,279
I mean she's slipped up and even
said yes, I may have told the

1301
01:27:01,680 --> 01:27:05,119
punch her and kicked there. Well, but come on, what competitive parrot

1302
01:27:05,199 --> 01:27:08,840
doesn't I mean it's like a kid
at you you at a hockey game.

1303
01:27:08,960 --> 01:27:11,880
Come on, check him into the
wall. I like watching my kids.

1304
01:27:14,159 --> 01:27:16,319
That was a lot to unpacker.
Yeah, well, she's treating her kid

1305
01:27:16,399 --> 01:27:25,039
like a pokemon. She's treating her
kid like a pit bull. I beat

1306
01:27:25,119 --> 01:27:31,319
your kids us for nothing, amorcks. They just pulled her goalie churns it

1307
01:27:31,439 --> 01:27:35,600
up. Comedy at the Carlton did
some great shows coming up coming on Thursday,

1308
01:27:35,720 --> 01:27:42,640
June one through Saturday June the third. That's June one, Friday,

1309
01:27:42,720 --> 01:27:46,239
June second, Saturday June fourth.
It's the Queen of comedy, Adele giving

1310
01:27:46,760 --> 01:27:50,119
you. Stop letting them bitches tricky
because they will tricky, and they use

1311
01:27:50,199 --> 01:27:54,560
your kids to trick you. You
see these commercials when they got kids now

1312
01:27:54,680 --> 01:27:58,119
trying to fuck with your self esteem. But it's all about attitude. I

1313
01:27:58,199 --> 01:28:00,439
saw this one Jenny Craig commercial.
This woman comes out there all distraught and

1314
01:28:00,560 --> 01:28:05,039
fucked up, tik about. I
knew I had to do something because I

1315
01:28:05,239 --> 01:28:11,359
woke up one morning and my daughter
said, Mommy, you're fat, and

1316
01:28:11,640 --> 01:28:15,199
I knew I had to do something. So I picked up that phone and

1317
01:28:15,319 --> 01:28:17,760
I called Jenny Craig. You know, they flipped the screen. She come

1318
01:28:17,840 --> 01:28:21,359
back like two weeks later. I
lost fifteen pounds on Jenny Craig, and

1319
01:28:21,479 --> 01:28:25,279
I feel great. I said,
yeah, that's good, bitch, but

1320
01:28:25,399 --> 01:28:28,920
you need a new attitude because had
that been me on that commercial? She

1321
01:28:28,960 --> 01:28:31,319
would have went the same way with
a different attitude. I would have said,

1322
01:28:31,359 --> 01:28:33,800
well, I knew I had to

1323
01:28:33,880 --> 01:28:39,760
morning and my daughter said, Mommy, you're fat, and I knew I

1324
01:28:39,880 --> 01:28:48,039
had to do something. So I
picked up that phone and I knocked that

1325
01:28:48,119 --> 01:28:57,199

There's a lot of things happening in
our world that I think we need to

1369
01:31:51,600 --> 01:31:58,600
pay attention to. Monroe County Executive
Adam Bellow today issued an executive order most

1370
01:31:58,640 --> 01:32:00,840
people who could be listening to this
on when I say so. Yesterday,

1371
01:32:00,399 --> 01:32:05,560
in anticipation of the possible arrival of
hundreds of asylum seekers and migrants from New

1372
01:32:05,640 --> 01:32:11,600
York City, and Mayor Eric Adams
said that he is going to start putting

1373
01:32:11,800 --> 01:32:15,840
as many as three hundred people on
a bus and sending them to any of

1374
01:32:15,920 --> 01:32:19,159
New York sixty two counties at any
time. I don't know if that's without

1375
01:32:19,279 --> 01:32:24,039
warning, and I can't tell.
He said that New York City was anticipating

1376
01:32:24,079 --> 01:32:30,000
the arrival of approximately three thousand migrants
during the first week after Title forty two

1377
01:32:30,079 --> 01:32:34,479
expired. Back on May twelfth.
Rachel Barnhart, who I many people know

1378
01:32:34,800 --> 01:32:39,039
for a long time, was in
media here. I didn't know you started

1379
01:32:39,079 --> 01:32:43,840
at what used to be our News. I did, yeah, our News

1380
01:32:44,199 --> 01:32:48,960
was actually my first internship my sophomore
year in college. That's how far back.

1381
01:32:49,239 --> 01:32:53,079
And once I did that, I
was bit by the news bug and

1382
01:32:53,119 --> 01:32:55,680
said this is what I'm doing with
my life. Of course he didn't last

1383
01:32:55,760 --> 01:32:59,239
my whole life, but they got
me started, okay, because then and

1384
01:32:59,319 --> 01:33:01,279
then I saw you when you were
on Channel eight. Then you are thirteen

1385
01:33:01,319 --> 01:33:03,319
and eight, and I don't remember
which way when I think, yeah,

1386
01:33:03,439 --> 01:33:08,880
it was like it was our news
eight thirteen eight, Yeah, that's right.

1387
01:33:09,359 --> 01:33:15,199
And now big politician, not a
big politician. I'm a part time

1388
01:33:15,239 --> 01:33:18,560
Monroe County legislator, but I'm loud. So you know, well it's pretty

1389
01:33:18,560 --> 01:33:23,159
big. You are loud, and
I think that that that you have to

1390
01:33:23,279 --> 01:33:26,399
have some guts to be loud because
you get a lot of pushback from a

1391
01:33:26,479 --> 01:33:30,479
lot of people. Well, you
know, I feel very privileged to be

1392
01:33:30,119 --> 01:33:35,920
extremely visible and being able to shine
a light on what Monroe County legislators do

1393
01:33:36,920 --> 01:33:42,000
and to be able to explain government
to them, and every single day,

1394
01:33:42,439 --> 01:33:46,399
someone from across this county Democrat Republican, it doesn't matter contact me for help

1395
01:33:46,439 --> 01:33:50,439
with a problem because I'm the one
that they know in government and they trust

1396
01:33:50,520 --> 01:33:54,680
me from all my years on the
news, and so I'm really grateful and

1397
01:33:54,840 --> 01:33:58,640
privileged to be in this position where
I can try to help people and also

1398
01:33:59,039 --> 01:34:02,520
continue to sort of tell people what's
going on and utilize those skills that I

1399
01:34:02,600 --> 01:34:06,039
had as a reporter to do that. Okay, So if you were reporting

1400
01:34:06,079 --> 01:34:11,520
on this, did Adam Bellow the
county executive, did he declare a state

1401
01:34:11,560 --> 01:34:15,880
of emergency? He didn't, So
okay, I think, you know,

1402
01:34:15,000 --> 01:34:20,279
I think this is a case of
needing to do something because people are asking

1403
01:34:20,439 --> 01:34:27,079
him to do something, and what
people here is going to be dependent on

1404
01:34:27,239 --> 01:34:30,880
where they are on the political spectrum. So it's one of those cases too

1405
01:34:30,920 --> 01:34:34,359
where I'm not sure he's going to
make anyone happy, because no, he

1406
01:34:34,479 --> 01:34:38,840
did not declare a state of emergency
and say no, we're never going to

1407
01:34:38,920 --> 01:34:43,680
house asylum seekers. He did not
say that. What he said was,

1408
01:34:44,399 --> 01:34:47,279
if you are going to enter into
a contract with New York City or the

1409
01:34:47,319 --> 01:34:50,960
State of New York or a nonprofit
and you want to bring more than ten

1410
01:34:51,039 --> 01:34:55,359
migrants here, you need to go
through RUST first, you need to go

1411
01:34:55,399 --> 01:34:57,359
through the county first, you need
to send it a plan to us,

1412
01:34:57,359 --> 01:35:00,359
and we need to give you the
okay. That with his executive order said,

1413
01:35:01,079 --> 01:35:08,359
I think that doesn't sound too unreasonable. So that was kind of my

1414
01:35:08,560 --> 01:35:12,000
first take as well. Okay,
but I did have some concern. So

1415
01:35:12,199 --> 01:35:16,600
my first take was, Okay,
it's a reelection here, anam Mellow has

1416
01:35:16,640 --> 01:35:20,479
to appeal to various groups of people
to get reelected. He knows this is

1417
01:35:20,560 --> 01:35:25,560
controversial and people are asking him to
take a position, and so I felt

1418
01:35:25,600 --> 01:35:28,159
like, Okay, maybe he's spreading
a needle here. He knows he's going

1419
01:35:28,199 --> 01:35:31,119
to really anger Democrats if he takes
a hard line against silent seekers, and

1420
01:35:31,199 --> 01:35:35,359
he also knows he's really going to
anger Republicans if he perhaps says, Okay,

1421
01:35:35,439 --> 01:35:39,319
we're throwing our doors open and we
welcome your tired, your poor,

1422
01:35:39,439 --> 01:35:42,800
your yearning messes, you know,
the bree street whatever. I think that's

1423
01:35:42,880 --> 01:35:45,359
what he was trying to do here, but I don't know. I haven't

1424
01:35:45,359 --> 01:35:47,239
spoken to him about it. But
that's how it came off to me.

1425
01:35:48,159 --> 01:35:50,960
Okay, now, or I thought
about it. But the more I thought

1426
01:35:51,000 --> 01:35:56,000
about it, I thought, Okay, I do. I am a lefty

1427
01:35:56,039 --> 01:35:58,479
liberal, so I do have a
problem with it. And my problem with

1428
01:35:58,600 --> 01:36:02,000
it is some of the things that
he's saying here, he's sort of putting

1429
01:36:02,000 --> 01:36:08,079
a chilling effect on He's basically issuing
a warning to new York City and New

1430
01:36:08,199 --> 01:36:12,720
York face saying you might want to
think twice before you send people here.

1431
01:36:13,199 --> 01:36:16,479
Yeah, and there are also pending
lawsuits apparently in other person's estate, where

1432
01:36:16,560 --> 01:36:19,560
hotel operators are saying, listen,
this is against the law. You can't

1433
01:36:19,560 --> 01:36:21,920
do this to us. You can't
tell us who we can have in our

1434
01:36:23,199 --> 01:36:28,239
place, in our buildings. And
the other The other thing that bothered me

1435
01:36:28,520 --> 01:36:33,159
was kind of tone, the tone
of the statement. Tone. I know,

1436
01:36:33,319 --> 01:36:35,640
well, let's I'm a woman,
I'm very used to being poppily,

1437
01:36:35,760 --> 01:36:41,720
but let me do it as someone
else. Okay. The Erie County executive

1438
01:36:41,880 --> 01:36:45,600
he has been issuing very consistent statements
putting framing this in moral terms, saying,

1439
01:36:45,680 --> 01:36:49,880
no, we welcome refugees in our
community, we welcome immigrants, we

1440
01:36:50,039 --> 01:36:55,520
need immigrants here. We know how
to handle this. And these are people

1441
01:36:55,720 --> 01:37:00,520
suffering some of the worst times of
their lives. They literally fly for their

1442
01:37:00,640 --> 01:37:04,439
lives and we need to take care
of them. Meanwhile, in Monroe County,

1443
01:37:04,520 --> 01:37:09,760
we're like, we're gonna take of
our own first, and we need

1444
01:37:09,800 --> 01:37:12,760
to put up all these barriers ahead
of you. And then it's the very

1445
01:37:12,840 --> 01:37:15,000
bottom of the statement, it says, oh, by the way we welcome

1446
01:37:15,039 --> 01:37:19,960
everyone. Yeah, very different tone. I got you. But when we

1447
01:37:20,039 --> 01:37:24,479
look at this now, I don't
know how accurate this is. I always

1448
01:37:24,640 --> 01:37:29,439
kind of I have not spent enough
time to fully digest it all say that,

1449
01:37:30,119 --> 01:37:33,479
but I thought I saw on a
polling card statement somebody put up what

1450
01:37:33,800 --> 01:37:38,840
looked like a tent city. And
I don't know if that if that's a

1451
01:37:38,920 --> 01:37:42,560
tent city with asylums, or if
that's just do you understand what I'm saying.

1452
01:37:43,119 --> 01:37:46,640
So when you're well, but it
was on Twitter or something. But

1453
01:37:46,840 --> 01:37:53,439
my point, of my point is
with issues like this, we sometimes fly

1454
01:37:53,720 --> 01:38:00,720
by on social media and there's a
takeaway. That's why I called you right.

1455
01:38:00,840 --> 01:38:02,800
One of the things I loved about
Mark polan Car is a statement is

1456
01:38:02,920 --> 01:38:06,399
and why I know that whatever?
For anybody who doesn't know, let me

1457
01:38:06,479 --> 01:38:10,720
jump in here just to say he's
the Erie County executive just for people.

1458
01:38:10,760 --> 01:38:14,399
I don't know if that was and
for and you know this is how I

1459
01:38:14,479 --> 01:38:17,439
know what you saw is not happening
in Erie County. He was very clear

1460
01:38:17,479 --> 01:38:20,399
in his statement. He says,
I don't know if they're coming, and

1461
01:38:20,600 --> 01:38:24,640
if they're coming, I don't know
where they're staying. But what I can

1462
01:38:24,760 --> 01:38:27,359
tell you is that New York City
and State of New York are going to

1463
01:38:27,479 --> 01:38:31,119
pay for their housing, and we
have many agencies here who know how to

1464
01:38:31,239 --> 01:38:35,880
handle this situation. So that was
sort of the other thing that bothered me

1465
01:38:35,960 --> 01:38:44,279
about Monroe County statement is Adam Bellow
is sort of completing the services provided to

1466
01:38:44,840 --> 01:38:48,439
the people in our county who are
struggling with housing with the services provided to

1467
01:38:48,600 --> 01:38:51,760
asylum seekers. It's not the same
stream of funding. It's not the same

1468
01:38:51,840 --> 01:38:56,359
type of services. It just isn't. It's two different issues and two different

1469
01:38:56,399 --> 01:39:01,239
problems, and two different mechanisms to
solve it, so one doesn't take away

1470
01:39:01,279 --> 01:39:05,760
from the other. Well, there's
a humane part side of me that that

1471
01:39:05,880 --> 01:39:10,079
looks at this and says, boy, you know how good we got it?

1472
01:39:10,600 --> 01:39:15,439
When people are literally dying to get
in here, right, literally dying

1473
01:39:15,520 --> 01:39:19,079
to get into this country, now
we have we need an overhaul. I

1474
01:39:19,199 --> 01:39:26,039
think of our immigration system badly because
it's a very difficult process. Uh,

1475
01:39:26,239 --> 01:39:30,039
and then we wind up having situations
like this where people are sneaking across the

1476
01:39:30,119 --> 01:39:35,119
border. We have people here,
and so you know, yeah, I

1477
01:39:35,239 --> 01:39:38,960
agree with all that. Now,
on the other side of that I mean,

1478
01:39:39,079 --> 01:39:42,720
I when you know you first said
below statement and I would go back

1479
01:39:42,760 --> 01:39:46,079
to that doesn't sound so bad to
me because if you're getting more than ten.

1480
01:39:46,640 --> 01:39:49,119
Look, we have a I mean
there are parts of our city that

1481
01:39:49,479 --> 01:39:54,359
you wouldn't nobody wants to be in, you know, uh, just for

1482
01:39:54,520 --> 01:39:57,479
fear and things, so I don't
know where you put them. And also,

1483
01:39:57,960 --> 01:40:00,039
look, we're coming out of a
pandemic. You think some people will

1484
01:40:00,039 --> 01:40:04,359
be very worried about what about vaccinations
that people have and could there's somebody be

1485
01:40:04,439 --> 01:40:09,720
bringing something in? And not to
sound mean or horrible, but I do

1486
01:40:09,880 --> 01:40:13,159
think this is something to consider right
after we after we've come out of that.

1487
01:40:13,600 --> 01:40:16,560
No, no, they've already been
at all by the time they get

1488
01:40:16,640 --> 01:40:19,760
here. I mean, I don't
think that's really an issue, and I

1489
01:40:19,880 --> 01:40:24,039
think we needn't. I don't know, we have to. We really need

1490
01:40:24,119 --> 01:40:29,760
to put our fear aside on this
and need to understand that we can.

1491
01:40:30,039 --> 01:40:34,439
We can accommodate people. You know, it might not look like it might

1492
01:40:34,520 --> 01:40:39,239
look different in each place, but
we can accommodate people, and we meet

1493
01:40:39,359 --> 01:40:43,680
people. Do you know, let
me tell you something, if we if

1494
01:40:43,760 --> 01:40:45,840
Monroe County had shut its doors to
immigrants, not that we could ever do

1495
01:40:46,000 --> 01:40:48,039
that, but if we'd shut its
doors to immigrants, we would have been

1496
01:40:48,079 --> 01:40:54,479
in a population free fall. If
it wasn't for immigrants, Okay, we

1497
01:40:54,640 --> 01:40:58,840
would we would have something like thirty
to forty thousand fewer people in this county.

1498
01:40:58,960 --> 01:41:01,279
You'd like wipe out the entire town
of Child. I I was calculated

1499
01:41:05,560 --> 01:41:10,199
ester in there too. Well,
you know. I mean. What I'm

1500
01:41:10,199 --> 01:41:15,279
trying to say is immigrants are vital, vital to our local economy. They're

1501
01:41:15,479 --> 01:41:18,479
vital, and we would be in
a free fall if it wasn't for um,

1502
01:41:18,600 --> 01:41:24,920
immigrants coming here to Rochester and building
their lives. And I think that

1503
01:41:25,239 --> 01:41:29,319
we need to welcome people and they
want to work, we need to let

1504
01:41:29,399 --> 01:41:33,159
them work. And UM, sure, it's a complex problem when you're dealing

1505
01:41:33,239 --> 01:41:38,840
with it with a huge volume of
people coming over the border and wanting to

1506
01:41:39,359 --> 01:41:43,119
make their lives here. Yes,
it's a complex problem. But we're up

1507
01:41:43,159 --> 01:41:47,079
to the challenge, especially I think
in Monroe County and in our upstate cities,

1508
01:41:47,199 --> 01:41:50,000
we are up to the challenge.
We know how to welcome people,

1509
01:41:50,159 --> 01:41:54,399
we know how to do this.
We can do this. And I think

1510
01:41:54,479 --> 01:41:59,079
that I would have preferred that kind
of can do attitude rather than playing into

1511
01:41:59,199 --> 01:42:02,000
some of the tropes about um,
you know, migrants coming up here.

1512
01:42:02,520 --> 01:42:05,920
Okay, when's the mixture? They
should have a get together, just no

1513
01:42:06,079 --> 01:42:10,720
podcast. We don't need more competition. But we don't know. I mean,

1514
01:42:10,760 --> 01:42:13,760
at this point, we have absolutely
no idea if people are coming,

1515
01:42:13,880 --> 01:42:15,560
when they're coming. We just don't
know. And I don't have a problem

1516
01:42:15,600 --> 01:42:18,560
with the county wanting to keep tabs
on that and be involved. I really

1517
01:42:18,640 --> 01:42:21,960
don't. But I do think that
words and messaging matter, and that's sort

1518
01:42:23,000 --> 01:42:26,359
of where I'm That was sort of
where my concern is. I don't And

1519
01:42:26,520 --> 01:42:29,399
I mean, you started off this
conversation thing, oh is there emergency order

1520
01:42:29,439 --> 01:42:31,920
because you've seen what other county executives
are doing. Yes, And I think

1521
01:42:31,960 --> 01:42:35,960
that that's sort of the impression that
might have been deliberate, that was trying

1522
01:42:36,000 --> 01:42:39,159
to be created. But I don't
know. Again, I didn't speak to

1523
01:42:39,279 --> 01:42:43,840
him, but certainly when I saw
the press with the press release come across

1524
01:42:43,920 --> 01:42:46,119
my email, I thought, oh
my gosh, please know. And then

1525
01:42:46,119 --> 01:42:47,800
when I read, I said,
Okay, this isn't as bad as I

1526
01:42:47,840 --> 01:42:51,079
thought, but it's not great.
Yeah, Okay, all right, well,

1527
01:42:51,079 --> 01:42:55,000
I mean I think that that kind
of puts some light on it and

1528
01:42:55,119 --> 01:43:00,920
explain to the very very direct and
easy way to digest what's going on.

1529
01:43:00,119 --> 01:43:03,000
H No, I think that's agree
with me. No, No, people

1530
01:43:03,039 --> 01:43:05,800
don't have to agree with me.
But I think it's important to be transparent

1531
01:43:05,840 --> 01:43:11,039
about what what's going on. Yeah. And I also think you so it's

1532
01:43:11,079 --> 01:43:15,119
okay to acknowledge that something's complicated as
well. I think people get I think

1533
01:43:15,159 --> 01:43:21,880
the immigration issue has become one that
is a little polarizing, But I would

1534
01:43:21,920 --> 01:43:26,319
say that as a country, we
need to overhaul that system and that may

1535
01:43:26,399 --> 01:43:28,319
solve a lot of them. Yeah. But I think there's a lot of

1536
01:43:28,479 --> 01:43:30,279
Yeah. And I think there's actually
a lot of consensus on the fact that

1537
01:43:30,479 --> 01:43:33,760
people who are here and have been
here they need a pathway to citizenship.

1538
01:43:33,800 --> 01:43:36,119
I mean, there's actually a lot
of consensus on things we could do.

1539
01:43:36,640 --> 01:43:40,920
But there are people in Washington who
are just paralyzed and can't get it done.

1540
01:43:41,119 --> 01:43:45,720
Yeah, when are you going there? I'm just trying to get reelected

1541
01:43:45,760 --> 01:43:47,800
to my county legislature set right,
Yeah, But I mean, I could

1542
01:43:47,840 --> 01:43:53,239
you see yourself going down and become
a member of Commerce. I don't you

1543
01:43:53,319 --> 01:43:58,439
know, I'm I Why don't you
listen? You never say never, you

1544
01:43:58,560 --> 01:44:01,439
never for a close and opportunity.
But right now, I'm totally honest when

1545
01:44:01,479 --> 01:44:04,399
I say I really like my life. I have a wonderful job at a

1546
01:44:04,479 --> 01:44:11,079
national nonprofit that's that's focused on poverty. I love my perst time legislator position

1547
01:44:11,239 --> 01:44:14,319
where I get to still serve the
community and have a voice and feel like

1548
01:44:14,359 --> 01:44:16,720
I'm making a big difference. Um, a lot of stuff, like I

1549
01:44:16,760 --> 01:44:19,439
said, you don't see because people
are calling you every day at super health.

1550
01:44:19,840 --> 01:44:24,039
Um, right now, I'm super
super content with my life. But

1551
01:44:24,720 --> 01:44:27,560
UM, if I feel I can
make a difference elsewhere and there's actually a

1552
01:44:27,680 --> 01:44:30,800
path to getting there, um,
then then I would certainly consider it.

1553
01:44:30,920 --> 01:44:34,439
But that right now, I'm just
trying to win an election in which a

1554
01:44:34,479 --> 01:44:36,960
lot of very powerful people don't want
me to win it. But I don't

1555
01:44:38,000 --> 01:44:41,319
think they're going to get their way. Do you? Uh? Yeah,

1556
01:44:41,319 --> 01:44:45,079
you ever feel like you got to
I'll just ask this, with no hidden

1557
01:44:45,079 --> 01:44:48,159
agenda or anything. You feel like
you got to target on your back at

1558
01:44:48,239 --> 01:44:53,960
time? And why do you think
that you can't be you can't be me

1559
01:44:54,199 --> 01:44:57,720
without that happening. Why do you
think that is? It's not possible because

1560
01:44:58,039 --> 01:45:01,920
I say all the things. I
yeah, I will take a stand even

1561
01:45:01,960 --> 01:45:05,800
if it cost me politically. Um
and I did this past year and it

1562
01:45:05,920 --> 01:45:10,199
did cost me big time. That's
why I'm fighting for my life right now.

1563
01:45:10,279 --> 01:45:14,920
Although it was it's I should really
knock on lots of wood right now.

1564
01:45:15,319 --> 01:45:19,439
So I'm in a pinary because of
redistricting the mat would you know,

1565
01:45:19,479 --> 01:45:23,600
we draw a new mass every ten
years, and it kind of was a

1566
01:45:23,720 --> 01:45:29,239
huge shuffle, and um, I
actually moved. I actually moved less than

1567
01:45:29,319 --> 01:45:32,000
a mile to run in a district
that was more appropriate for me because they

1568
01:45:32,079 --> 01:45:38,800
deliberately drew me into a minority district
thinking well, she's she's They thought they

1569
01:45:39,000 --> 01:45:41,760
thought they'd put me in a box. So I fought for these minority districts

1570
01:45:41,800 --> 01:45:43,760
and so they drew me into one, and I'm like, well, I'm

1571
01:45:43,800 --> 01:45:45,439
not going to take that opportunity away
from a minority voter. I'm gonna move

1572
01:45:45,479 --> 01:45:48,560
to this other part of my current
district, right so people I currently represent,

1573
01:45:48,600 --> 01:45:53,000
I'm gonna move over here and run
this district because no other incumbent is

1574
01:45:53,079 --> 01:45:56,680
running in that district. Makes a
lot of sense. Right, Well,

1575
01:45:56,760 --> 01:46:00,039
the problem is they drew it for
this other guy and so kind of a

1576
01:46:00,159 --> 01:46:05,720
problem. Um, and so that
they're they're like, they're so mad,

1577
01:46:05,960 --> 01:46:12,880
Bill, They're so mad that I'm
sad I actually moved and destroyed all their

1578
01:46:12,960 --> 01:46:15,479
plans to get me. Um.
I mean it's not I haven't totally destroyed

1579
01:46:15,520 --> 01:46:19,199
the mean I have to win this
election. Um, But I think I'm

1580
01:46:19,239 --> 01:46:23,399
on track to winning. I'm working
very hard. I'm meeting lots of people.

1581
01:46:23,520 --> 01:46:27,560
The district. My new district contains
part of Aroundicuoit and Arondicuoit. Voters

1582
01:46:27,560 --> 01:46:30,920
have been simply amazing to me.
I love that town. Everyone has been

1583
01:46:30,960 --> 01:46:34,800
wonderful. Uh. And it includes
North Winston Village and Browncroft and um,

1584
01:46:36,039 --> 01:46:42,600
it's the campaign is going. That's
a great neighborhood. But the the thing

1585
01:46:42,680 --> 01:46:45,920
I was thinking as you're talking is
that, you know, we tell everybody,

1586
01:46:45,119 --> 01:46:49,119
we tell young people, we tell
our children and things, have a

1587
01:46:49,239 --> 01:46:51,760
voice, stand up for yourself,
do all that. But when you do,

1588
01:46:53,039 --> 01:46:56,199
yeah, when you do really scary, we don't. We don't tell

1589
01:46:56,279 --> 01:46:59,039
you the other side that there are
a lot of people who are going to

1590
01:46:59,119 --> 01:47:01,000
disagree with you, gonna call you
names, they're gonna say ship behind your

1591
01:47:01,000 --> 01:47:05,159
back if they don't agree with you. And I don't know, Rachel,

1592
01:47:05,199 --> 01:47:10,039
if if you have feel this way
or not, But it seems to me

1593
01:47:11,000 --> 01:47:15,640
that, uh, politics have been
politics since Jesus walked the planet. But

1594
01:47:16,159 --> 01:47:21,000
well, yeah, because what's it
about politics is about government, right and

1595
01:47:21,279 --> 01:47:27,239
anything? Power, yes, but
in power. But but on the other

1596
01:47:27,359 --> 01:47:32,319
side, it feels like now things
have gotten more divisive and and you know,

1597
01:47:32,520 --> 01:47:36,960
you may say you're a far a
little further to the left. I

1598
01:47:38,039 --> 01:47:42,680
always think that to properly govern we
have to come from the middle somewhat.

1599
01:47:43,039 --> 01:47:45,319
But it feels like there's a role
for everyone to play. I mean the

1600
01:47:46,000 --> 01:47:51,520
Yeah, I've had bipartisan legislation.
Okay, you can sign common grounds of

1601
01:47:51,760 --> 01:47:56,640
course that that That's what I'm trying
to say. And I feel like sometimes

1602
01:47:56,680 --> 01:48:01,079
though in you know, in the
worlds of or in other places it you

1603
01:48:01,159 --> 01:48:05,760
know, these voices come sharp and
quick and are judgmental, and I think

1604
01:48:05,800 --> 01:48:13,279
it's become hurtful to our political system. Um, yes, but I wouldn't.

1605
01:48:13,319 --> 01:48:17,159
I think that the problems with our
political system and corruption run ways deeper.

1606
01:48:17,319 --> 01:48:20,600
I mean I think corruption, sure, I mean you but but it's

1607
01:48:20,600 --> 01:48:25,880
all corruption can be legal, right, So the issues that you're describing could

1608
01:48:25,880 --> 01:48:30,000
be solved if we you know,
ended partisan jurymandering, if we had perhaps

1609
01:48:30,119 --> 01:48:31,880
ring choice voting, non partisan munist
collections. I mean, I could go

1610
01:48:31,960 --> 01:48:35,199
on and on about the reforms we
use democracy to make sure that your voice

1611
01:48:35,319 --> 01:48:39,640
actually matters more than it does now
and you go and vote. Um,

1612
01:48:40,479 --> 01:48:43,720
and and the thinking there is that
if we did some of these things,

1613
01:48:43,800 --> 01:48:47,920
then you'd have people in office who
are more beholden to you than they are

1614
01:48:48,039 --> 01:48:51,359
to donors, than they are to
special interests, than they are to party

1615
01:48:51,399 --> 01:48:55,920
bosses. They would actually do the
things that you want them to do,

1616
01:48:56,199 --> 01:49:00,520
and that we'd break the law gems
that currently exists. So um, well,

1617
01:49:00,560 --> 01:49:06,439
good luck with all that. Well, listen, it was so wonderful

1618
01:49:06,479 --> 01:49:10,039
to hear from you. I saw
your It was really great to hear you

1619
01:49:10,119 --> 01:49:12,520
from you, Bill, and I
hope your podcast is a success and I

1620
01:49:12,560 --> 01:49:15,920
got to tune it more. It's
going well. And U one last question

1621
01:49:15,039 --> 01:49:19,760
more on a personal uh nature for
you? What does Rachel Barnhart do for

1622
01:49:19,840 --> 01:49:23,960
fun? Like we see you,
we read you, we see you on

1623
01:49:24,119 --> 01:49:29,640
social media? What do you do
with Yes, I still I'm still a

1624
01:49:29,680 --> 01:49:33,199
swimmer and oh wait, the birthday
swims coming up. Well, you know

1625
01:49:33,279 --> 01:49:36,479
I stopped. I didn't haven't done
that since the pandemic started. I kind

1626
01:49:36,479 --> 01:49:39,760
of lost touch with the people.
But I really want to do it again.

1627
01:49:40,319 --> 01:49:43,279
Um. But yeah, I used
to swim a press debate every year

1628
01:49:43,319 --> 01:49:45,479
on my birthday. Um. So
I still swim a lot. And I

1629
01:49:45,600 --> 01:49:48,840
walk my dogs a lot. I
actually love. I had Penny and Prudy.

1630
01:49:48,960 --> 01:49:53,680
I had a little puppy sheep of
doodle and sent a little anymore and

1631
01:49:53,840 --> 01:49:57,880
my begal rescue who's sick now.
And so we walk around a lot.

1632
01:49:58,000 --> 01:50:00,560
People see me a lot. And
frankly, you know what else I like

1633
01:50:00,640 --> 01:50:02,920
to do, really to eat out
and drink some wine. And um,

1634
01:50:03,600 --> 01:50:08,359
watch sci fi. So you're not
jumping on the bandway, we won't see

1635
01:50:08,359 --> 01:50:12,279
it down the Blue Flash Arena Friday
night watching the Amors. What is going

1636
01:50:12,319 --> 01:50:15,520
on? I just missed that.
What you're not jumping on the Ambers bandwagon.

1637
01:50:15,560 --> 01:50:17,960
You're on team Danny. Oh no, but you know what I mean.

1638
01:50:19,000 --> 01:50:21,720
Um, And right now I'm in
campaign mode. So I have absolutely

1639
01:50:21,760 --> 01:50:25,159
no life, you know, at
all? Yeah? At all? Yeah?

1640
01:50:25,319 --> 01:50:28,159
Well, walking the dogs, drinking
wine eating that into the sci fi?

1641
01:50:28,239 --> 01:50:29,840
I mean, do you have any
time for sci fi? Or a

1642
01:50:29,880 --> 01:50:31,800
lot of voters at the Amor's game
this what By the way, I've never

1643
01:50:31,960 --> 01:50:34,640
been a big sci fi fan.
What do you watch that sci fi?

1644
01:50:35,000 --> 01:50:40,000
Oh my gosh, so I love
like for all Mankind. Severance is really

1645
01:50:40,039 --> 01:50:45,319
good. I just started Silo.
I'm sure I'm missing something. It's great.

1646
01:50:45,680 --> 01:50:48,840
Really, I've just started it.
It's really good. Um yeah that

1647
01:50:49,199 --> 01:50:54,560
Severances was one of my favorites as
well. Um, Yellow Jackets. I

1648
01:50:54,560 --> 01:50:57,560
don't know if that would be like
considered sci fi, but there's definitely an

1649
01:50:57,600 --> 01:51:00,319
element of cokayness in there. You're
thinking Star Trek, Star Wars. I

1650
01:51:00,439 --> 01:51:05,960
am not. I'm not into that. I I don't know why, I'm

1651
01:51:06,000 --> 01:51:12,319
just not, but um, but
yeah I like that and um yeah,

1652
01:51:12,359 --> 01:51:15,239
and I've consumed copious amounts of news. I like to write, obviously,

1653
01:51:15,319 --> 01:51:18,840
you know, I like to tweet. But um, one thing, one

1654
01:51:18,920 --> 01:51:23,439
thing I'd really like to do is
just make more time for travel. And

1655
01:51:24,319 --> 01:51:28,720
um, that's definitely something I would
really like to do. So I'm kind

1656
01:51:28,760 --> 01:51:30,920
of need to make but you needs
to make a point to do that because

1657
01:51:30,920 --> 01:51:31,800
then all of a sudden you're like, oh, I've never done this,

1658
01:51:31,840 --> 01:51:35,000
I've never done that some time.
Yeah, and then life's over, so

1659
01:51:35,079 --> 01:51:39,640
you better get on. That's right, Well, I appreciate it. What

1660
01:51:39,760 --> 01:51:41,800
kind of winter are you drinking right
now? I just heard to take a

1661
01:51:41,840 --> 01:51:48,359
back. I'm drinking. I'm drinking
because I heard you into a glass,

1662
01:51:48,479 --> 01:51:51,880
because I know them in a glass, I'm I'm an alcoholic. I got

1663
01:51:51,960 --> 01:51:55,039
it. You smelled the tan and
a Yeah. No, listen, we

1664
01:51:55,159 --> 01:51:58,039
had a lace and these meeting tonight. I came home, I poured myself

1665
01:51:58,079 --> 01:52:00,119
a glass and now you know,
now the secrets out. But whatever,

1666
01:52:00,399 --> 01:52:02,520
I'm allowed to do that. Yes, you are allowed to do that,

1667
01:52:02,640 --> 01:52:05,159
all right, Rachel. I appreciate
your time, and thanks for explaining that.

1668
01:52:05,439 --> 01:52:12,800
All right, thanks everybody. There, She goes, Rachel barfarn You

1669
01:52:12,880 --> 01:52:15,760
wanted to hear Star treking the worst, right? I wasn't sure because I

1670
01:52:15,840 --> 01:52:18,319
don't know if I like sci fi? You can go you like sci fi?

1671
01:52:18,479 --> 01:52:23,640
My instant answers, You're like,
no, you know I like documentaries.

1672
01:52:23,880 --> 01:52:28,319
I love documentaries. I you liked
ELF back in the day. Uh,

1673
01:52:28,479 --> 01:52:31,039
there's an ALF channel on Sling.
There's a whole channel that just shows

1674
01:52:31,119 --> 01:52:34,560
ALF. Come on I'm not kidding. On Sling. Go to Sling.

1675
01:52:34,640 --> 01:52:38,600
You go to Sling right now in
the studio, and there's an ALF channel.

1676
01:52:39,439 --> 01:52:42,279
It's just all it's all ALF.
It's called ALF. That's the name

1677
01:52:42,319 --> 01:52:45,359
of the channel. How many episodes
of this show have no idea? I

1678
01:52:45,479 --> 01:52:49,800
actually sat down one day and watch
I was sad and I watched two episodes

1679
01:52:49,960 --> 01:52:56,520
and I felt better. Will yelled. No one of them was that Willie.

1680
01:52:56,800 --> 01:52:59,479
They thought Willie was cheating and I
don't know they were. Guy,

1681
01:52:59,479 --> 01:53:00,600
I didn't know. Idea. They
do all kinds of weird stuff. But

1682
01:53:01,119 --> 01:53:04,239
yeah, that's uh, there's an
ALF channel, but I don't see that's

1683
01:53:04,279 --> 01:53:08,439
the things like, I don't like
that. The last documentary I watched was

1684
01:53:08,560 --> 01:53:12,199
on and One. Netflix has been
doing their own series of stuff, and

1685
01:53:12,239 --> 01:53:15,239
I find that stuff fascinating. I
love that story. I love the story

1686
01:53:15,319 --> 01:53:17,479
of people. You know, great
things. If you like that kind of

1687
01:53:17,520 --> 01:53:26,880
stuff. There's two things, ones
on Instagram and ones on TikTok on Instagram.

1688
01:53:26,960 --> 01:53:30,600
It's Humans of New York. I
believe that's what it's called. If

1689
01:53:30,640 --> 01:53:33,800
you look that up, it's people's
stories and it's it's fascinating. And the

1690
01:53:33,960 --> 01:53:40,600
other is brief but fantastic. I
might be saying it wrong, and forgive

1691
01:53:40,680 --> 01:53:44,079
me, but if you look up
a brief or fantastic, something's gonna pop

1692
01:53:44,199 --> 01:53:48,119
up. And they're these short stories
that people tell about their lives or what

1693
01:53:48,239 --> 01:53:51,119
they're doing or where they came from
or whatever. And I love that shit.

1694
01:53:51,560 --> 01:53:55,520
I just do. And so sci
fi isn't really my thing. I'm

1695
01:53:55,560 --> 01:53:58,159
more of a realist and I love
comedy. We might have to start watching

1696
01:53:58,199 --> 01:54:00,880
stuff and they'll give the TV records
to the list nurse. Yeah, I

1697
01:54:00,039 --> 01:54:02,960
have no problem with that. I
have no problem with that. All Right,

1698
01:54:03,439 --> 01:54:06,199
we will get out of here.
Omar was fantastic or not Omar,

1699
01:54:06,239 --> 01:54:12,520
excuse me. Omar's Wally Wally was
fantastic. I was a huge fan of

1700
01:54:12,640 --> 01:54:17,920
that. So thank you for that. And for mister Dowless, Freddy Doles

1701

01:54:32,079 --> 01:54:35,079

fly that's flying around the studio,

01:54:36,439 --> 01:54:39,039
I'm Bill Moran. Will see you
tomorrow.
