Yeah, even if they hate him. It's kind of weird, Like
I wouldn't I like seeing uh the Angels because of what's his name, Mike
Trout or Shohei Otanian. Yeah, I'd rather say I just find that he's
so much fun to watch. He is fun to watch it was fun to
watch in the World Baseball class. He's on such a loser team. Yeah,
I know he was a somebody's gonna get him. He ain't gonna be
there, like after this year. He's gonna He's gonna cash in somewhere.
I'm thinking queens, Oh, are you thinking of going to the Mats?
Yeah, Yanks are gonna sign Yanks are gonna sign up. The Yankees have
to found their sweet spot, which is all right, let's spend enough one
payer. Okay, good? Are enough people watching? Yes? Okay?
Great? Are we getting enough people to show up at the Stateum? Okay,
great, We're good. The Yankees are the new Cubs. Did you
miss us? I missed you guys. Can't you miss me? Yeah,
because I've missed all these Dandy comes with the hard statements. The Yankees are
the new Cubs. Here's for ten opinions in a row from Danny. I
hate laundry. I like my bacon crisp. I don't know how Yeah,
that's trurow thoughts. The echo is it's got Are you nervous at all?
No, I've already done it before. I know that. But that's not
that you wouldn't be nervous so much about the procedure. Now, my mom
has had some real problems and I need to call her because it looks like
she's gonna have to have surgery on bulging discs in her neck because it's pinching
the nerves and she can't really move her hand. And if you don't do
that for a period of time, atrophied. Yeah. So, uh see,
I know, big words. Yeah, yes you do. So.
I think like going for the MRI was a big deal to her because she's
and I said, alright, suck well, I just later, I don't
know what. How do you get you out? I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry that they just slided it. Come get it what we're out
of shot? No, no, don't shot him buck m Chrisco. Chrisco
is not covered by my hmore loud as hell. They say, do and
you want to take a nap, good luck. Well, I I'm with
you. I don't kill something. Yes they gave me. Yeah. I
I felt like the British Navy was coming after me. I don't know what
happens. And I've talked about this before. Bizzard drums, I've set off
the alarms on EKG systems because my heart rate will go low when I had
the endoscopy recently, because you're voting. I don't know that, but I
think you you can get yourself into a very drunk. He's in the hybradation
mode. He's in Guinness mode. I just if there's something about it where
you can just relax that. I don't think the procedure is concerning as much
as the information from the p Are you called white they call it white coat
syndrome. Am I nervous? No? Are you nervous about the information coming
back a little bit? Okay? That's what I mean. What would be
the worst case scenario if you don't mind? Or is that too much?
There's two things on My life's an open book. Yeah, I figured,
but I thought I should. As soon as the words left my mouth,
I go, maybe he doesn't want to talk about the worst case scenarios.
They tell him to start planning. Is the funeral? Yeah? No,
I have opinions a lot on myself. Uh number one like that. They
tell me I have a hip, okay, and then there's ways to correct
that. I don't want to be taking any more medication. I'm already on
like several pills for my like for the possibility for I have an aorticle leakue
I have high blood pressure. They've calmed the blood pressure down, be still
got to take the medication. What's the aortic leak though? I have a
leaky valve. No, I may have been born with it. But sometimes
they go in and they can. Yeah, they can fix that, but
they want But now this year's they usually go up through your growing for your
leg. Yeah. Yeah, it's just a little sot. Here's the thing
that you gotta we have to realize about ourselves. All we are no pumps
and pipes. You're a pump and pipes. That's it. Make that guy
what gets let's say pumps, because you have one in your lower body.
Back doing anything tomorrow. I'm telling you, you know you can probably Hey
man does pop in the back of the trip? Hey, I had an
estimate from my doctor for four thousand dollars. I brought it to mac Mac
of All Trades got it for three hundred ninety nine. He putting in all
put in a pool blood. So now I have the biggest outdoor pool and
gates the But there that is something that can be fixed. But it is
all, we are pumps and pipes and if you can think about you know,
just sometimes pipes and homes. Right, we have problems all of a
sudden, there's a leak. I mean, all kinds of things. Can
it's a simpler thing. Maybe it's too simplistic, all right, We're a
little more complicated as as a living organism. But at the same time,
it's it's really what it is at its basic, basic point, basic value.
I'll be fine. I'm not worried too much. I mean, I
do want to know what's going to go on because if I do have a
fib, okay, there's a way to treat that, but that's more medication,
right, But the other fib is just that every once in a while,
your heart might go out of rhythm. Yeah, it starts going one,
two, three, four, five, six seven. Somebody's saying,
if it hasn't, we can't tackle him in the studio anymore. And I
have to drink non alcoholic beer the rest of my life. And uh,
you know, you would have to alcohol probably. Yeah, I'm not a
big drigger anyway, but you're too bad that would just say take me more
for me, I can stop. I think you did stop at one point
when we're working together for about what eighty days? Yeah, I did.
Yeah, And you're like, yeah, something man, Ozzie was right,
sobriety sucks. Really No, No, I said that sucks. I had.
I had a moment that I just decided I mean to stop. And
you met with somebody and they convinced you to stop drinking for a week,
And then a week became two weeks, two weeks became a month, and
all of a sudden, this is really getting momentum on this. This is
a weird. Yeah. Then Tommy started ryan out and show starting to suck
and alcohol back. No. The weird thing was it became like a problem
in my life by stopping, I think a little bit, because it was
raising some questions like why are you doing this? What happened? What really
motivated this? What it was was I had been at some work function and
I drove home and I was kind of buzzed. And the next morning I'm
driving in and I go, man, I drove these roads that are dark
when I got home, and it's still dark now driving in to do a
morning show, and I go, man, this is getting a little crazy.
You got kids, you got stuff, and I said, I'm a
big ass van, right, but I go, you know, I wonder
and there's such a history within my family of alcoholism. Then I'm like,
ah, so I did go to get evaluated. And of course if you
go to get evaluated and you're looking for a problem, you're going to find
it. Oh yeah, right, if you look for they have to come
back to you with a problem or else, Well, we do job.
I don't know, like if you if we went on a website right now,
see if you can. I don't know, but what is considered social
drinking? How many drinks is considered a social drinker? Ask your friends,
you know, because then there's things like do you drink every day? Right?
And there are times where yeah, I have. And when I've said
that to certain people, they you do yes, yes, yeah. And
then there's a lot of my friends you're like, yeah, right, how
many how many guys like in the in our grandparents generation had the five o'clock
cocktail. I don't know every day. Yeah, my grandfather drank wine all
day. He was never a debred unless that's just how he always was.
And I never noticed it. So I didn't go to get that evaluation but
we had to have an intervention for him. Now, stop drinking, so
I said, I would still not really an alcoholic. I would stop for
ninety days. I think I went like eighty something and I had another beer.
Yes, So it's as many people consider a social drinker as someone who
drinks at parties and other social situations, an amateur. That's the definition find
in Marrion Webster. Okay, it doesn't give me a specific It doesn't give
you the number of drinks. Oh, let me see to drink moderate drink
defines moderate drinking as men two standard drinks or fewer per day. Women one
standard drinker fewer per day. That's considered a moderate drinker, considered a moderate
drinker. Okay, double standards. Yeah, well, yeah, by way,
they're not going by social No, how do you know if you have
an alcohol problem? Yeah, I'll tell you how. And a guy called
up our show then and told us, and I thought this was a great
analogy. Hey, billy, it's eight o'clock in the morning, pull out
of beer? Does that look good to you right now? If so,
you have a drinking problem. If it doesn't, then you're fine. And
you're like, no, okay, then you're good. You're like, all
right, great, we have a beer this weekend. So Ben's drinking is
five or more drinks in about two hours, and mails four or more and
two hours for a woman, double standards. Done that. Yeah, heavy
drink more than four drinks on any day or more than fourteen drinks per week
as a man three drinks per day and seven drinks per week for a woman.
Is a considered a heavy drinker? Would you switch genders because that's a
thing. Now I get twenty one Yeah, botus drinks. All right.
Well, so yeah, I'm I nervous just a little bit about the information.
Yeah, I want to see, like I mean, because I don't
think it's going to be paralyzing or anything like that. When you get the
information tomorrow or not. No, I will get the information another week and
a half from now, because like I guess, like, well, here's
they said since COVID now heart issues are through the roof and now everybody like
they're backed up as far as like echoes and really like cardiology appointments. Yeah,
they wanted to get me in a month ago. Okay, so but
at the same time, not such an emergency that we need to see you
tomorrow, right right, So that that's going to make you feel a little
bit Bill, Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm curious to see
if my aortic league is changed at all. If it hasn't, then odds
are it's something I lived with my whole life. Shouldn't be an issue,
right. If it has, then they're gonna Okay, Well, then you
know we have to kind of close it. Sometimes there's been a like a
clock healed up, but healed itself. Yeah, a piece of bacon fact
got stuck in there and it fused together, right up right. That's the
way it is. It's called the pork industry. Pretty bad. Yeah,
that would be pretty bad. Uh, the show may suck tonight because there's
a writer's strike and uh, I was wondering why to get my lines and
I'm not doing shit. Who was who was waiting for Mark Hillman the other
night? Geez snow Saturday Night Live? Um this week? And it was
supposed to be Pete Davidson. Uh, well that's as kind of a relief.
Well maybe really for him, but really for all of us. She's
everywhere, Dude, that show looks like it's pretty good. He's in Taco
Bell commercials. He was on the rookie of the other night. What else
is he in? He'sn't like he was. He was banging a Kardashian for
a while. He was at the met Galla uh and he met ran into
the Kardashian that he was banging. Um, who is what is the name
of the show that He's got a new show coming out. It's out on
streaming. I think Joe Pesci's in it. A woman who played the wife
and sopranos to Tony Sopranos. She's his mother. And uh, it's getting
from what I've been reading. Of course you can't remember the name exactly.
Uh, it's getting pretty pretty good reviews. Cool check that out. I'm
just king around about Davidson. But he is everywhere, though, he is
everywhere, Soups bubb Kiss, That's right right. Writers working on season six
of Cobra Kry have put their pencils or their pads down for now. Writing
on season three of Showtimes Yellow Jackets has also been haunted. Now Here's where
the things The first to go dark were all the late night talk shows.
Yeah, so that would be Jimmy Kimmel, the Jimmy's and I think even
Seth Myers, Yeah, Seth Myers too, Yeah, Daily Show. I
think that they're part of the two because but I'm sure they are guest hosts
for the last like eight weeks is a different person week, So wanted Jimmy.
Fallon's employees tweeted some not some nice stuff about Jimmy. Yeah, because
I guess when they had the meetings to tell people, and I think NBC
is saying, look, we'll pay you for this week, but if you
strike as writers after that, we're not paying and we'll go one more month
with your insurance and if you're still on strike, the insurance ends. That's
kind of how strikes work. You you factored that into striking. So right,
that's not news. Okay, so supposed to prepare you, right,
thank you, So here would be us U A couple of things that aren't
interesting. I've heard a lot of bad things over the years about Jay Leno.
Bill Hicks never liked Jay Leno. He thought Jay was a sellout.
He hated that he did all these Torito's commercials and all this other stuff that
Lee and that he was a sellout was his big thing. Now. I
always thought, could that just be jealousy. I don't know. Bill Hicks
was a comic who seemed to be bigger overseas than he was here in the
United States. So you can look him up. And I've always been a
big fan. Yeah, somebody spray painted in a wall in Dallas. Bill
Hicks was right about everything. Did you ever see that? No, somebody,
I think I sent it to you once. He said, I can't
open it. Somebody spray painted on a wall. Bill Hicks was right about
everything. Now I don't necessarily agree with that, but he was right about
a lot of stuff. It was right about a lot of stuff. And
then, uh, I also heard, like, you know, there were
other people who do I think Jimmy Kimmel is not a Jay Leno fan.
Howard sterns not a Jay Lettle guy. That's some kind of Oh. So
Stern hates Leno because Leno basically stole, according to Howard, every idea that
he had from Howard. He stole the Tonight Show, He stold every idea
that Howard had. He also stole Stutter and John Melendez and made him the
announcer for the Tonight Show. And then when Conan in two thousand and five,
Howard Warren Conan, he goes, I'm gonna get the show. In
two thousand and nine, he goes, I'm telling you, you're not going
to get the show. He goes Do you know what Jay does when he
goes home. He goes home and stares at a wall. He's got nothing
else. He spends more time in the air than he does on the ground
because he's flying around. He's always working because he's got nothing else to do,
because I'm telling you, Conan, I'm warning you. And he was
right, okay, right now, I don't know that very well could be
true. I didn't. I didn't. I never heard that, and we
do know what happened in the end, right. But then there are people
who say, I think there was a writer's strike or there was something where
NBC came and said, hey, we're gonna we're gonna have to start letting
people go, and Jay came and said, well, just take half my
salary. Now, the rumor was about Jay that he's never really spent it
Tonight show, dime dime. All his money was safe stand up stuff.
Yea. Now, whether or not that's true, but I've always heard how
benevolent the guy was. Like he was very good to the people that worked
with him and for him even now. I think Jay Leno went out to
the picket lines and brought them coffee and donuts. Okay, the writers and
Jay did a lot of his own writing and stuff. Well. One of
Jimmy Fallon's employees tweeted some stuff out about Jimmy so at the mecall on Monday
night, Fallon said he would support his writers all the way to the end
of the strike, okay, or in the event of a strike, But
one of his own employees says he's not pointing his money where his mouth is.
Sarah Cobes is a senior photo research coordinator on The Tonight Show, which
you probably need. We need a photo of this, you got to find
it. And yesterday she quote tweeted he wasn't even at the meeting this morning
to tell us we won't get paid after this week. Lee. She added
quote at Jimmy Fallon, please support your staff. Had fun bowling with you
last week, but a fun party won't pay my rent. That's what she
said, and then she added quote at Jimmy Fallon, please in addition to
not paying employees after this week, Cobe says NBC plans to cut off their
health insurance after this month and if the strike is still going on by then,
so they're base basically in limbo. And she said that Seth Myers has
told his staff that he tried to take care of them financially after NBC stops
paying. And I think he was on zoom for some medium and when they
were told all this information because Jimmy was not Now but does Jimmy owned the
show or NBC owns the show? But same, but his name's on the
door, right, but kind of out of his pocket to pay down at
that point, then I don't believe. So, uh, I mean,
this is what strike. But I know, but so the point what,
well, here's the thing is like, and you're right, Jay Leno though,
would be the guy they would try to take care of the people lean
too. Letterman paid his staff to keep writing and say, hey, look
we're gonna keep a show going. Yeah, so I think maybe it was
because Jay did or not because Letterman like was a douchebag to work with,
but he still paid for it because he owned the show. It was Letterman
show he did. Yeah, it was worldwide Pant's production. Yeah, that
was his. They gave it to him. Yeah, So I don't know
if it's something to do with it. I don't know about Jimmy, but
and I don't think it was Seth either. Right. So my only point
is that you know, this is a team and it is intimating. You
want people writing. It becomes and you don't want to come back a tough
thing. Right, But what do you do? You're you know, I
always say, all you do is rise to your next level of broke.
Right, you can be making millions of dollars. I mean, you got
them, Like when the NFL like spending all of this shit on what they
were What they were saying is that they were just complaining that the writers aren't
getting paid. You got guys from Netflix, the two Seels thirty and forty
million. Yeah, are you from Endeavor three hundred and seventy million last year?
And are you Manuel? But there? The thing is, though,
is that they're in the ownership group. So even though they are getting paid,
they're making them money at the end of the day. Yeah they could.
Could they reach into their pockets? Yeah? Absolutely? Do they have
to? Well no, And that's kind of like where your union is supposed
to like, you know, fight and prepare you for this. Like the
NFL Demorris Smith told the guys in twenty ten, Hey, listen, they're
gonna lock you out next year, so you better save your money because if
you don't save your money, we can't fight for you. And what happened
Eventually the players are like, Okay, dude, I'm broke. I don't
have any resources. We got to settle this thing, and they did at
the end because the billionaires always win. So you have to like be prepared
and it's up to your union to get you prepared for that. Well,
the tough part is that you also have to go beyond that to the emotions
of human beings, right right, And so now all of a sudden,
we've drawn a line in the sand, and so I'm on this side and
you're on that side, and regardless of how we feel. And the thing
is like, but I love you, and you say you love me,
and you want to support and I know you're out there getting all the adulation
for stuff, but it's the words that I helped create that are coming out
of your mouth that are helping you get that. Yes, So where where
do you stand? And as I'll read this Sarah Cobz's tweets. At a
meeting, Jimmy Wood wasn't even at. We were told NBC decided to stop
paying us after this week and end our health insurance after this month if the
strike is ongoing, they won't even tell us if well, if we will
technically be furloughed, just active employees who aren't paid. And then she said,
I should note that I'm a non union and not a striking worker.
This was to the rest of the staff and crew, because she's not she's
the picture person. And then she said, I'm told Seth Myers was in
their Zoom production meeting and that he is going to try and take care of
his staff and crew after an NBC stomps paying And that's that's kind of what
you want to work for, because I think most of these people, what
is the union doing for him taking their money a lot of times? Right
And I don't know, and I don't want to speak ill of unions.
We've had Starbucks locally that have unionized, Okay, there are some, and
people feel like that's a benefit. Right now, I know a guy who
comes in and he tries to fight on behalf of the employer. He's a
lawyer, and he talks about all the ills of unions and how they'll take
money and sometimes not show up. So I don't know. I've never belonged
to a union. I will say my dad was in the teachers union,
and I think that that benefited me greatly, as you know, being in
the family where there was pay and you got raises and there were things negotiated
and on his behalf and he paid in his dues, but he it was
all negotiated for them. Didn't the writer strike recently within fifteen years ago?
Yeah, I remember, see I'll come of that. Did they get what
they wanted? I think they did, because I remember like Desperate Housewives like
immediately took a nose dive after that. Avalon Gorria was like, she showed
up for work and she felt bad for her hairdressers and her makeup artists,
and people started going after her the writers because she wasn't supporting the writers.
She's like, yeah, but what about the rest of the staff. So
she buys them pizza, and Tina Fey was leading the picket line and said
no justice, no pizza, no justice, no pizza. No. Eventually
they sorted out, and Colbert goes, I know what my fellow writers are
thinking, and I'm thinking the same thing. He and John Stewart continue to
do the show. They just wrote all their own stuff. They didn't have
writers, and then when they finally settled it, Stewart did a commercial where
he's got a script in his hand. He goes, I have a screw.
I remember it very vividly. Jay Leno at a picket line at sne
he was handing out donuts and he doesn't even have a show right now,
and he's also did that during the writer strike at No. Seven Y.
I saw Corvette down there. I figured I bring him from donuts. A
new fact. Rob Lowe joined the picket line at Paramount to support his son
John Owen, who's in the Writer's Guild. Natasha Leone was also picketing at
Paramount, and she dropped this line saying, everybody's going to look out for
each other otherwise the world is gross, and I think, yeah, I
think that's the thinking, and I feel bad because I get to even I
don't know, and I don't know this about Jimmy, but I think sometimes
this kind of controversy, you just want to sidestep it a little bit,
and but you probably need to take care of your own, right, You
got to step up and try to take care of your own I don't know
what the right thing is. I don't know how far this will go,
but it's a it's a new world with the streaming services, and they feel
like they're not getting their fair share. No, that's fair. Yeah,
they're absolutely right. We'll take a moment when we come back. What was
the worst car you ever owned? We're gonna ask the guy who owns a
car dealership, because at one point we all drove some junk. You've heard

your I feel bad because I think he just killed Dan. You got no

car dealership I have ever walked into in my life, Thank you very much.
It's very sharp looking building. It was a it was it was a
sound. It looked like it was really quite an undertaking. No, it
looked like it was easy to do. Oh simple, everything simple to build.
If you got to deal with towns and zoning and flooding, I mean
all kinds of things, well, I've got to say it was a challenging
spot. Yeah. We purchased two pieces of land, put the two pieces
of land together. It was in a flood zone. You have to do
what's called a loamer, which means bringing it remapping. Essentially, you raise
it up out of the flood zone. You remap it. We worked with
the town of Victor. I gotta tell you, great place to do business.
Good, fantastic hearing that fantastic town. They're you know, they're they're
easy to work with. Different county completely the right. I don't know how
Monroe is either, but I that's nice to hear. I've had a lot
of experience with Ontario County and I can't say enough about you know, the
people there, their business and you know, you've got to stay within certain
constraints, which is which is imperative in any in any community. You know,
I'm going to make sure that things are done properly, but just a
great group to work with. Yeah, how many years have you been in
the car business yourself? Well, I've actually been truly been in the business
for about eleven years. Okay, but my father had been in the business,
so you grew up around it. I grew up, you know,
changing plates and helping install radios and things like that. But so it's kind
of been my whole life. So when you look at cars today, in
trucks today, it's amazing the technology. I'm blown away because I'm driving that
the big horn right Dodger. Just that the focus is where it should be.
I always used to joke that driving is the activity you do while checking
your email, only because we're so distracted now. But they put it all
right there on the steering wheel. You can answer a calling, you never
have to take your eyes off the road. The display screen is big,
but not obnoxious to the point where it's distracting. It's perfect. I mean,
the cameras have gotten so good. You know, you can practically see
the dimples and people's asses that they walk by in yoga pants. I mean
it's like high definition. That's why I don't walk behind the car. But
you know what I'm saying, like, I go, wow, this is
amazing. And even the fact that the mirrors will come in automatically because a
lot of the trucks have gotten bigger, and you know, I don't think
we've widened our bank lanes, and we certainly haven't widened the parking spaces in
a lot of places like wagments and stuff. And they go, this is
such forward thinking. I'm really impressed with the Dodge product and everything, even
the Jeep stuff. The Jeep is amazing what they've come out with. Now
when you see the Grand Wagon ears, Yeah, is the new you know
product that they've come out with over the past couple of years. The technology
and there is truly truly amazing. The not not only from the driver's standpoint,
from the passenger standpoint. There's actually a touchscreen in front of the passenger
where they can kind of take over and put in the route and do the
things you can't do while you're driving. Yeah, it's like the copilot almost
like a copilot seat. That's amazing, it really is. And the you
know, kids in the back can do the same thing. Um, it's
it's really come a long way. Yeah, and then you're starting to see
and I don't know how your your feeling is on this, but we're seeing
this push right So by twenty thirty five in New York State, it's supposed
to be all electric cars. And I'm not sure I love that idea.
I'm okay. I mean, I've driven some electric cars. I see that.
I see some of the pluses to it. You know, there's great
pick up your breaks if you drive it correctly, could last you five years.
Just not sold on those batteries and things. I don't know that.
I'm completely sold on the bags and everything right now, as you as you
know, it's a new technology. Just like when we had our cell phones.
These things came in bags before. Yep, okay they were they were
they came over our shoulder. We're holding one of these things, were breaking
it out. You could you couldn't talk to people, you know, because
it was always breaking up. But now where you have, you're you're at
the beginning of the technology. I quite frankly, I think we're pushing it
just a little. We are. I think you have to let the technology
all um, naturally and let it just go and maybe it's not even electricity,
maybe it ends up being hydrogen or something else that ends up being the
other alternative energy. But that being said, I drove a plug in hybrid
here tonight, and you know, it's it's the way that it's a way
that the industry is going. Yes, it's it's inevitable, but I'd like
to see it happen more organically as opposed to I'm pushed by the government on
the car companies. Yeah, yeah, because it's almost like they don't understand
what they're asking, right, they don't. They don't understand. But the
technology once again, it's like it's literally saying pure cancer. By two years
from that, it's or else we're gonna give it to you, right,
truly truly, but I think that, yes, we have to do something.
But there there's other technology. If you see, you know, different
fuels there, there's the there's the e eighty five and pure ethanol, flex
fuels that that are that are better for the environments. Yeah, but I'm
still I'm still not sold on the whole. You know, this energy is
coming from somewhere. We're still burning coal, We're still we are you know,
we're still making these giant you know, fiberglass and carbon blades that go
on these windmills that are not slightly that are killing birds. You know,
So I think we're I just don't like when we push it. I think
it should be it should be driven by the consumer, supposed to being driven
by the government. I think it's a really really smart way to look at
that. You know, you being a kind of a car guy and around
it all your life, what is your favorite? I mean I heard a
rumor. I don't know how true it is, but are do you collect
cars at all? I have a few. Yeah, I have a couple,
but like a private collection of things, right like, yeah, and
there's some cars, there's just there're pieces of art. So the favorite vehicle
that I have, yeah, is a nineteen sixty seven Gto convertible. It's
completely unrestored, it's got rash on it, it's you know, the front's
gotta dent on it. The paint is the original paint. So this isn't
like the fake Bettina which everybody likes to do. This is the rust.
It's true rust. It's a four speed, it's a you know, the
top down original interior and everything, and I pull it into this parking lot
here and somebody can dang it and I'm not gonna care, right, But
that's that's my favorite. That's just it's a long old car that you know,
it's doesn't handle well, it's it's just great. That's that's my favorite,
big engine in there. And yeah, yeah, you know it's not
truly a hot rod, but but it is. Yeah. Do you remember
the point where cars became where more cars became practical in other words, in
other words like cars, Like there's a lot of classic cars now that are
out there, but not all cars were meant to be classics down the road
if you save them and preserved em everything else, Like, I don't see
thirty years from now going a guy going, yeah, I'm gonna drive a
two thousand and two camera today. Man, it's a classic. I mean,
that's you know, it's like I completely see that. Was so pissed
when my dad gave me, you know, gave you know that that's back
in the days. He gave me the seventy eight Malibu station Wagon and oh,
I couldn't believe that I had to drive this thing. I'd kill for
it right now, sure, even not the station wagon. I'd love to
have this Malibu station Wagon back. But yeah, you'd be surprised at what
we looked at in the eighties and nineties that are now, Oh my gosh,
I gotta have that thing. Yeah. There are guys I know and
I don't know. I don't know them, but they were pouring concrete in
my neighborhood. This is no joke. They had a nineteen eighty conversion van.
It looked in it was Chevy, it was pristine and it had that
like that beige color to it with all this the brown stripes. And I
know it because it had a bumper sticker that said Reagan Bush eighty on it.
And it looked but it looked brand new, Like it looked like this
thing is kept indoors like in the winter months and brought out. Did it
have the curtains or not? Yes? Yeah, yeah, the curtain guy
and in a little moon porthole that's what it is. Yeah, the porthole
wind of wild. Yeah, class that is free candide, free candy.
You got a clown mask in there, you know, to pop out with.
That's pretty funny, you know. They just unveiled the demon one seventy,
which is unreal. It runs an eight ninety in the quarter mile.
But the yeah, what the hell cat is like, it's it's based on
that. It's a challenger and they unveiled that when we were out in Vegas
for a dealer meeting, and it runs on corn okay, and also a
kind of circumvents the cafe standards that were imposed upon the car companies so that
they don't make these fun cars anymore. They don't. That's what kind of
bums me out the most, is Yeah, yeah, we got all these
great cars and they're I guess forced by the government to kind of go by
the wayside because of the standards. Well, yeah, but what happens to
all those Like what's going to happen to people that are still driving around with
you know, ethanol engines that are I don't, I don't. I don't
see this as it's it's going because if you look at things like, for
exam, Apple, the air cool Porsche just goes up and up and up
in price, right, But these are gonna be cars that are I think,
continue to drive up in price. And I'm sure there's gonna be classic
one or ones now that become classic. You know, I'm sure in New
York will make them illegal and you'll go to jail for having one. Do
you want to run for governor, bro it's sure, seriously, Yeah,
it's unbelievable. Get my vote, yeah, man, but it's unbelievable what
we're doing with stuff. It seems to slow every progress down. Indianpo twenty
twenty five. Kevin, start the paperwork. You're over thirty five, right,
I am over. You can run for glos. We will take a
moment when we come back. You know, we had um yesterday. We
had Jose Po on Great Guest. Yeah, he was pretty good. It
was very good. I looked up on TikTok and I just wanted to play
these two things about the city of Rochester, one saying horrible things and one
saying somewhat better things. And it's kind of interesting the juxtaposition of what you
hear on social media and how the message gets out there on the same subject,

billified a voicemail anytime. I'm a Victor Chrysler Dodge Jeep ram line at five
eight five two o six eighty eight sixty six eighth side, Billy, I
just listened to the pot can't you had with the arrifs and everything on.
I love the fact that you have the relationship with all the area police and
and be sure to like and subscribe to Bilified wherever you get your podcast.
Police Chief Matt Barnes, who is the police chief in Fairport, came down
here the other day said he wants to do a podcast. Oh wow,
see what we're doing BILLI or what you Yeah, Bilified branded podcast here would
be my question, Matt. If we went electric but it was high speed
car chase with electric cars and someone didn't get a charge, how many criminals
are getting away? No, kid, it doesn't matter. You're just gonna
get the ticket anyways, and you're not going to what's the difference? Yeah,
gay point, it's just like can you imagine that? Go? God,
damn, I forgot to charge two things on that. They building a
taser for the cop cars. And I believe emergency vehicles have to be running
all the time, Like if they go to like okay, I'm not gonna
say Duncan ducts, if they go to Wegmans, let's say, and they
stop, the car has to be running so in case there's an emergency,
they hop right in and they go. They don't want to risk the idea
of turning the key and all of a sudden, oh the engine doesn't work.
We have an emergency, right, So if they're how are they gonna
operate with electric cars? If they're always running unless they're at the police station.
They're gonna wear mittens in the in the U turns and have the car
turned off. Okay, might get a little cold, put your jacket on.
It is what it is. But if you have like what happened in
like on ninety five, like late last year in the winter time, where
there's a huge like back up right right forever and ever, it is.
Yeah, you know, people go into the woods and burning stuff because oh
they ran out of electricity in the car. All kinds of problems. We
can't, we can't. I don't think this is a viden state. This
is they all marched to the same drum. But I think this is a
Cuomo maybe a Hcal. They're they're all birds of the same fit or something.
Uh. The Amerks playing a game five Yeah, and on the phone
is a guy who has a Americans a website called LGA five eight five dot
com. LGA stands for Let's Go Americs. That would be the Woes from
Apple. It's Keith woesny action. Whoa, hey Keith, Keith it was
into that gay. Someday you'll find a connection to like t Woes himself.
So how hard is it? I got to think for the team, you've
got an entire week off, like it just feels like the momentum is taken
right out of this series, doesn't it. I mean, he would think
that, but I think it kind of played in their favor, giving them
more time to practice than you know, getting ah, you know, getting
past the first two games that they stunk up and you know, figuring it
out and now they're back in the series. So in a way it probably
worked out better for them, and you know, in a way for fans
to see the game, why are they running it every other weekend at this
point because they have to wait for the other round to finish first, and
that's not going to be over until the end of this weekend. Okay.
I wasn't sure if it was that or if there were scheduling things at the
different arenas and stuff, because I remember this, I think even last season
or two seasons ago, the same kind of thing. That's an awful long
time if the bus schedules. Yeah, you know what I'm saying. The
electric bus is charged. That's a lot of charge of Billy. You stopped
down at Montezuma. We're trying to get there. Will you be there in
the stands cheering them on, Keith, Yes, there, I will be
there along with a lot of other people, so it'll be I think it
worked out to be there on the weekends. Keith, have you have you've
been a lifelong fan of the Americans. I moved to Rochester in two thousand
and three ish and then you know so, yeah, so when I moved
round, you know, I never been aware of when I grow up in
Buffalo, so you know how he came to games randomly growing up, but
you know, really became a fan way and moved to Rochester and then unfortunately
you get to know that Kevin guy in your in your studio. Yeah,
he's Danny So he's a good guy. Well, no, I trust him,
I believe no like being a big hockey fan. Do you have season
tickets? I personally don't, but that's just for every game. Okay,
let me ask you a question. Do you think about the Amicks are like
they they have left fewer fans attending each game than the league average, and
they're up like fifteen hundred from last year. Is it, Bobby that all
of a sudden everybody's jumping on the bandwagon. Hey, I want to go
to a hockey game now because the Amicks are in the playoffs. You should
love it. You should love it. That's the energy that we get.
Happens in every city. Everybody's a bandwagon. I know that there's die hearts
like Keith, and I know exactly what Keith. No, I know exactly
what you're saying. Though. Yeah, I think all of a sudden,
right, all these people just show us. But Keith, doesn't that make
it more fun? I mean it is kind of annoying when during the whistle,
but right, No, it's you know, people want to see a
winner. It's you know, he can't expect people to show up on a
Wednesday night and you know, when it's snowing out. I mean, it
would be great if they did, but it's reality is it's the American Hockey
League and you know, I think it's uh, you know, the crowds
have been up, you know since they started winning again after last year's run.
Well, there there is something that that's fun. And you're right,
everybody loves a winner, so we all like to get behind a winner and
be part of that. And it is a big party and there is excitement
and look anywhere, like the Yankees start losing, nobody's shown. Let the
Bills go back in the toilet. They but the Bills still sold out when
they were in the toilet. Please, they still sold out when they were
in the toilet. But not always. We could not every game, but
not every okay, not every single game, right, but they were drawn
seventy thousand people still for seventeen years of a drought. Today it was always
the beginning of the season and then by the time, by the time the
weather got shitty, right, and they were playing home games. But it
wasn't like there were big patches like of of blue seats. You go to
an Averics game, more people addressed as blue seats that actual fans. Well,
I think there's two reasons for that one. As Keiths pointed out,
it's the HL right, so it's not and it's one of these things that
you go. It'd be fun to go. But and if there's a winning
atmosphere there and you got kids that are gonna be playing hockey or you you
know, Kevin Scott kids, you go and it becomes a bigger, a
bigger deal. I think people just like when look at the goddamn lacrosse how
many people I know, lacrosse is growing and growing and growing. But when
the Nighthawks are winning and they're on when the Styres family owned the Nighthawks,
they would outdraw the Amerks routine. Yes, right, because it was winning
and it was and it was faster and it was you know, it was
it was a faster. It's been more affordable, yeah, their pre games
games. But still, I just, I just I've always been told you
Rochester is a hockey town. Rochester is a hockey town. And they haven't
sold out a game at Blue Cross Arena since the turn of the Centride.
You know that, Yes, it wasn't hockeytown back. So do you say,
Keith, I mean they sold out. They sold out games for the
playoffs last year, and you know, Rochester is a hockey town. But
people want to see a winner. It's been when the last time they want
uh, you know, they didn't win a playoff, it was to call
their cup. You're gonna love this how long have you know? Yes,
it was ninety six, wasn't it, Keith? Yeah, well how long
have you known? Kevin? A couple of years. So many years ago
when the Amarks were in the Calder Cup, they were playing the Pirates Portland
Pirates. Huh was it the Portland Pirates. Yes, So they were playing
the Pirates and we got a tow truck to come down and suspend Kevin on
a hook. We attached CDs to Kevin and dressed him up as a pirate
and he came down like a Pinona. Oh my god, he's a pirate
and whatever prize fell off, Kevin, you won, no kidding? Yeah,
yeah, we did that. That was fun. It didn't break the
crane, but that was a that was a big deal because Keith, I
know you weren't here then, but I'm sure you were familiar with what what
was happening. But the Callder Cup comes, they bring it around. It
a party everywhere, I mean the entire town. If you were in your
twenties, you were out at every bar and everybody ended up with strap.
I can say they're passing around and go drink from the cup. I said,
absolutely not. Yeah, come on, man, don't be a pushy
your buddy bullhead step you're getting strapped from that thing because people were hacking.
Sure enough, bulls out with strapped, but for two years afterward, nobody
got sick. Were How are the crowds and Syracuse compared to what we're getting
here? I mean Syracuse only holds like fifty five hundred for Hi for their
rink is sold out with fifty five hundred people. Seem fair, that's like
half what the Blue Cross Arena has, right, what are we even now?
Thousand excuse me, eleven thousand. They don't even sell out those games
either, so you know there's there's not that many people showing up. We
had more people in Rochester. Let them. Yeah, I actually I looked
it up today and they averaged the same number of fans per game as Rochester
does. I think it's fifty three thirty or something like that. That they
were. They're dead ever to average turned average fans. But look, look
it looks more full, right, and that energy feeds right, right,
but they're still both less than half the league average. Keith, what are
the chances The chances are high? They're uh, you know they you know,
they came back and then one two games. I think the favors are
in there. You know, everything's in their favor, uh the So yeah,
I think they have a great chance to win if they show up and
play like they did the last few games. Do you know there's going to
be a ton of fans there, and you know Amorgs fans are pretty loud
in that building, so they know that they have the support there and they
can easily take a take Cracuse out of the game. Do you know if
there are tickets still available? Oh yeah, there's plenty. It's I it's
still available. I was just looking earlier and they haven't. You know,
all across the upper part of the arena is all open still. Do you
is there a bust that goes down like a group that if people wanted to
jump on they could be part of or no, or that you know,
Okay, I didn't know. No, just you know the people I've gone
to games with typically most people sit in kind of the same areas or you
know, on one end. And you know, I think Roy heard Syracuse
somebody tried setting up like a group ticket package with Syracuse. You know they're
gonna buy you know, like seventy five tickets and then as soon as they
became available, Syracuse said, Nope, those aren't available anymore, and they
accused them of trying to scale tickets. So I think they're they're trying to
they're trying to keep Amracks fans separated or not not joining together. Called the
Attorney General Florida for that series. They've made it so the only American you
have to have an American credit card to buy by Florida. Yeah, keeps
Canadians out. That's nice because if money's money and fans or fans, and
who's gonna be more passionate about hockey is some Floridian or a Canadian? But
do you want your Do you want your home playoff game with seventy other team's
fans in the stadium? Yeah, if if it makes your money, I'm
looking at it from a dollar since I go, yeah, I can get
it. But I hear you better takes interesting And they can do that legally
because it's Canada. Yeah, they can't do that to an American customer.
They could do it to a Canadian customer. Do you have any rituals that
you believe in, Keith? Is there anything that you do before an Amerates
game or have done all this season anyway that you're taking into the playoffs with
you. No, I have tried to avoid that. I got into that
superstitious stuff before, and that just drives your mind crazy. So the only
thing I have is get there and grab a beer and go watch the game.
So I don't worry about wearing the same jersey or socks or anything else
like that. It's glaring out with friends and grab a drink and well for
a win. Well, there you go. They're gonna fucking lose. Now,
Keith, you're not even You're not wearing the same socks, the jersey
with the mustard step beard from back in December. What's wrong with you?
You're growing a beard yet I have not shaved, So there you go there
since they started, So I guess that is the hockey thing where you don't
shave it. Yeah, yeah, I get him a manscaped. But let
me let me ask you, Keith, any any Mercans you think that aren't
going to be, you know, playing with the team next year on purpose
because they're going to the Sabers. What keeps saying Americans, the Americans,
the Americans. Yeah, I'm just haven't followed. No, it's an inside
joke on but it all seriousness, don't like, who do you think is
going to go up to the big club next year and helped the Sabers?
I mean the way your coalique has been playing, he's been he met to
the first two games and then he came back and you know he's got two
goals and assist. So he's he just turned nineteen years old, so he
keeps playing like he is. I think he may have a good, good
chance to get a look at with him next year. Cline needs some help.
Hello, Pilot, what's his deal? Florence Pilot? He's great at
this level? I think he's uh, you know, he fills out.
You know, he's you know, there's a lot of players that are awesome
at the HL level and you know, we just accept him and you know
they played great and they're a big part of the team. And that's not
bad at all. You know, he he's still playing pro hockey. Um,
but I think his NHL time has probably passed him by. But wow,
he's still gonna get paid figure salary in the HL. And and why
it up? You're doing what you love and that's it, right, yeah,
yeah, exactly. Yeah, So you know that's you know, that's
how you know, the Jody Gage and the h you know, Scott Metcalf
and all those guys. You know, they st you know, they all
played in the NHL, but they made their careers here and you know,
well doing that seeing the country in a Greyhound. Yeah, yep, exactly.
Well, enjoy the game and go Americs and LGA five A five dot
com. It's the name of the website and you give a complete breakdown.
I would assume even the synopsis, right Twitter, I do mostly just Twitter
these days. Okay, so the same same to handle on Twitter lazy,
So that lazy label is real. Yeah, balls, that's it. Well,
look, you know what they need. That's what's great when you have
fans that are doing the marketing for you, Right, LGA five A five
on Twitter as the handle you get all the great American information. Do you
update during the game on Twitter? Yeah, oh yeah, I've been doing
it. I think it started in two thousand and seven or two thousand and
eight, something like that. And uh yeah, just you know, I
you know, share things and talk about the game with other fans during the
game and sometimes share information and we see it. He was sometimes even the
goals on the road. Do you uh you don't get press passes? You
should? I did at one time, Yeah, so should Yeah. Yeah,
No, for a number of years I did have a press pass and
was covering the team and the option is there if I wanted it. Um,
I've known them for everything. Well it's a it's a lot of work,
but I'm going, boy, this is this is just a passion for
you. Yeah, yeah, I know, And there there wasn't a chance
it was you know, I did have you know, was covering the team,
you know, every day for a while and you know, just life
takes different turns and now it's just pretty much just a Twitter thing. Yeah.
So, but the team was great and you know they you know,
for a while they gave me a press pass and you know, the options
still there for line of two and did do all the interviews and do more.
But you know, those real life jobs getting the way of doing other
path Yes they do from time to time. I understand that. Well.
Uh, Keith go amerks check out LGA five eighty five on Twitter, and
uh, thank you very much. Maybe we talked to you next week after
the game. Yeah, And uh, you know, we'll be celebrating a
win, unlike the Rangers team. So we go there this year. How
the Savers done this decade? The Sas? What did they missed the playoffs
by two points? Was it two points? How about last decade? I
don't know. We're in a new decade. They keep forgetting all right,
Keith, thanks for being patient with us tonight. Yeah, thanks, guys,
We'll talk to you later. All right, there you go. Didn't
President Reagan once refer to them as the Amerks when he came in to town.
I don't know, yeah, like go Emerks. Like he kept emphasizing
the rock syllable, even though the in the nickname of the of the of
the hockey club is Americans and he's the American president. I know all the
sports, is hockey the most superstitious? Do they have the most? I
think so Hockey in baseball, but especially baseball, does have some. But
I feel like your equipment on the same every time. Hockey is like the
beards and the u the underwear and all that stuff. Yeah do you believe
in any of that stuff? No? No, do you? Is there
any girl? I girl play up beard? Every year? I Lader started
that in the eighties. Yeah, it was when they were head there for
Uh. Yeah, because I go, I don't believe in any of that
stuff. I don't believe in the ghosts. I have one superstition, don't
believe them. I think I just believe in Jesus. I think today,
and we're taping this on March third or May third, excuse me, March
third. Uh, I think today's parent normal day. Oh that would explain
why I got married on this day nine years ago. Oh my god,
it was your first winning yeah oh yeah, yeah boom. Now they've commemorated
the occasion by putting up a whole food Why don't you grab Youruiji board and
see if you could tap into the energy that was going on that day.
Yeah, I'd rather stay away from I got. I got an awesome wife.
Now I say she loves me. Would you rather live with a ghost
or your in laws? Oh? Definitely my in laws That were great people.
How don't think previous in laws they were cool too. In fact,
in fact the true story, she doesn't. Max doesn't know this. Yeah,
so I went to their house one day just say hey, look,
I'm sorry things didn't work out, and they were like they gave me this
look like yeah, we know, like in other words, yeah we know
it's not your showed up. Oh yeah, wait a second, yeah,
time out. I went to my old in laws just to say, when
you got married, did you talk to her parents first? Oh? Yeah,
that was an interesting discussion. You did, yes, okay, yeah?
And so then after it, have you at this point are you living
in the same yes, square footage at the time, you know you maybe
you know divorces coming to maybe you're in stepping bedrooms. I don't know,
but so you're still living under the same roof. And then you went to
her parents did they know that the divorce was? This was after I was
no, okay, so I okay to ask. I asked for her her
their blessing before we got married. Yeah, we were living together, okay,
So I told no, this is after I moved out, okay.
And I went to them and just said I heard it that she wasn't in
town. So that's what that's the perfect I won't run into her. I
went to her parents and just you know, said hello, said hey,
look, I'm sorry things didn't work out. I wasn't my idea, and
they're like, hey, no one. Nobody kicked you out. Man.
You We're always here for you. Don't worry about it. And the mom
was kind of like, yeah, we know, don't worry about it.
Give me half my ship back. No, no, no, why did
said feel like? I don't know whether I feel like a shitty human being
or not. I didn't. I would never even consider doing that. It
would be weird to me. I'm not saying it's wrong because I did everything
I could to make that thing work. Yeah, and I wanted them to
know that, like, I got nothing to hide here. I did.
I did. I didn't blame her. I didn't say anything bad about her.
I didn't say anything I he was like, I'm sorry this didn't work
out. I just went to for a visit and as before I left and
say, hey, look, it wasn't my idea. I'm sorry this didn't
know her father looked gen goes well, I knew it. I knew this
was gonna happen day one. If you were insistent, yea, was that
closure or did you go back since then? Or do you talk to him
still? I haven't talked to him since. I haven't talked But that's a
good question. I mean did that make you feel better? Yeah? Yeah,
yeah, I did. Yeah, so because you know, because you
don't want to be like or at least at the time, I now I
wouldn't care, but at the time, I felt like, I don't want
to be wandering around, you know, like they have them like blaming me.
I'm like, I'm I got nothing to hide here, So I wanted
to be like, but you know, face them and go look here,
sorry things didn't work out. I don't know if that's a fair point.
I don't know if people looking and point blame. I always just figure,
you know, for myself and even if it was a loved one, if
something ended, I have no animosity towards either one. Certainly, blood is
thicker than water, and I'm gonna side if it's my brother or my sister
and something happened in their relationships. But I wouldn't be rude or not at
all at all to their their their significant other. What's that fa No,
But I just wouldn't and I and I wouldn't say anything either way because it's
really none of my business. But I also, at the same time,
being in a similar situation, I wouldn't go to play in laws and say
anything. I guess maybe you should. I just never never did. Yeah,
it felt like, well, in this situation, with my mental state
at the time, I was looking at it like I don't want them to
think that this was my idea. Yeah. I didn't pull the plug on
this. I did everything I would. I could you feel better? And
they were cool with it. Yeah, they were cool with it. That's
fine. I've only talked to him a couple of times since, but we've
always been cool. That's interesting. I would love to see the number of
people who have done something like that, you know what I mean. Yeah,
it's interesting to know because there's a lot of times that people get very
very close. Yeah. Like I knew girls who had girlfriends they weren't even
fiances or and they would and they broke up and the girl would still show
up and the mom and like at the holidays, you really do you know?
Somebody, come on, man, I agree, I know. Talk
was like, but this was like, it's awkward, it's a weird thing.
And yet the mom loved this girl so much and she was part of
the family and on. And if you're that I remember it was my buddy.
It was his girl from from a high school and they dated a little
bit into college, but went to separate colleges and so it didn't work out.
And uh, it was kind of weird. And I think even in
college I knew somebody like that. Do you do you remember that girl Lisa
I dated? Uh, she when in the pathtick was. She was married
for several years before she got divorced. Right that she met me and we
started. We dated for about a year and that was it. She was
closer to her ex husband's mother than she was her own mother. Yeah,
so when they got divorced, it was like she had to say goodbye to
somebody who was as close to her as a mom. Yeah, and she
had to shut that relationship off because of the divorce. Yeah, well,
Karen, is it a big Italian family? Man, I'm sorry. I'm
sorry, Matt. I'm trying to not to get divorced. So I'm just
sitting back not to be No, no, no, I get that.
What I mean, Like you imagine, like everybody, there's some families.
Yeah, you would miss it. We have a buddy, a mutual friend
that when he was getting divorced, all those and it hit him that he
and they he had no kids. That the niece and the nephew weren't going
to be around, he wouldn't see them. It was the last time he
had cried. He said, yeah, it really But we asked him when
did the last time you cry? And he said, I'll tell you tomorrow.
And he told us that he realized that the two nieces that he had
watched grow up because I'm never going to see them grow up. Yeah,
and then that's when the last time he cried. Yeah, and so yeah,
that's so. There is that thing you can understand that I've never heard
of anybody going after divorce and talking. Well, they treat him you really
well, hey man, they're like salt of the earth people. Yeah,
really down to earth people. And he was just trying to borrow his own
chainsaw. Hey, um well i'm here, can I get there were tree
cutters? She took from me. They were tree cutters. We'll take a
moment. There's been a rise in uh er visits because of one thing that's

successful with Victor Krysler Dodge Jeep Ram another dealership, does all kinds of performance
via close. I mean you got your hands and a lot of things that
there. Man, You gotta do something to keep yourself busy nowadays. Right?
I agree? You say you do an investment firm too? Yes?
Wow what a stock this year? Cool? Yeah? Okay, yeah,
very protect. Yeah, investment is like it's always one to me. I
always think those people are a little bit smarter than me. I would listen
very carefully because they know I've proven that wrong. So it's fine, Well
I know that, like my so a lot of these I don't want to
name any of them, but let's say, like people have probably heard of
the Motley Fools, Yes, heard of this, say these kinds of things.
So a lot of those guys kind of fly by the seat of their
pants. They do. Yeah, and my brother in law was hired by
a group because he they needed they were ordered by a court in order to
continue to do business. You needed to have a compliance lawyer sign off on
everything because the ship, you know, right, and I don't. I
don't know that world well enough. But there's a lot of things, you
know, shady stuff that can go on with these you know, Oh absolutely,
there's a ton of shady stuff. And then you know, the scariest
thing about investments I have to say is most people will research the TV that
they're buying more than they will the stock they're buying. You think somebody's a
great stocks do your research. Yeah. I stopped listening to my brother like
months ago, Well would it be. I feel like sometimes people look at
it it's almost horse racing. Maybe it's that's trading versus investment. But I
like the old Graham and Dad and the you know, the uh, you
know, the Warren Buffett style. You buy what you know, stick with
what you know. If it's got good cash flow, if it's a good
company, it's a good name, good industry, buy it and you hold
on, butte it out. Everybody wants to you know, they want to
be rich quick. And I noticed that this um, this generation is just
you know, with the bitcoin thing and all these I don't even know what
bitcoin is. I don't, okay, intrinsic value, it's right, Oh,
it's blockchain. Well okay, well what's behind the blockchain? At least
I know what you you know, with the American dollar, you got the
full faith and credit of the US government behind you. But I don't understand.
I am not smart enough to understand. It's funny because I know somebody
who is a business owner who was saying that he was having his kids invest
about fifteen dollars or put aside fifteen dollars a week, and at the end
of the month, they would buy bitcoin, however much bitcoin, and he
kept saying bitcoin is gonna be good. And this is about I don't want
to say, almost two years ago. And now I feel like when it
was at fifty six at the height, But I feel like there's less and
less talk of bitcoin now, as though it's almost But I don't know.
Maybe I'm sort of not in that world that I'm just I'm just saying I
don't understand it. But you see it, you can, you can do
bitcoin transactions, and I'm going, yeah, but how many people are doing
them? I want to know. I'm just curious. I like those kind
of stats that I don't know, and right I say, I don't understand.
That's why I stay away. Well, didn't we hear about a couple
of NFL players that were looking to get paid in coaches? Yeah, he
may have been. They took a huge loss because of it. Huge.
Yeah, Bitcoin's down to twenty nine thousand right now, isn't Eric Adams?
I think Eric Adams was as well. I'd love to go that's partially build
the same thing. Well, that's when it was at its height, it
was at like fifty six to sixty thousand for one bitcoin. Now it's down
to lay. It's about cutting half of that, right, and they say
it's still climbing back. I think it got as low as like fifteen recently.
But the thing is is that you know what happened with the FTX and
the sam Bank and freed stuff. A lot of NFL players who signed on
to be endorsers for that, like Tom Brady, Shilo right by the way,
they all took a bath, and now they're getting sued. Well,
are they getting sued personally or the company that was putting that ad out?
I don't know if I think they might be getting sued personally too. I
don't know how that works. Yeah, I wasn't sure I thought it was.
Have they been named as part of the lawsuit? How do you pay
your agent out with that? Is your agent getting a cut of the bitcoin?
Do you got a cash a little something? Yeah? Obviously, yeah,
I'd rather well you do, and then there are ways that you can
probably really converted to Yeah, but we understand what I understand. I want.
I want cash in hand. Don't give me something that's gonna be ten
years from now. Give me those they were allowed to move the book.
I guess you'd say they were getting paid without telling people, you know,
using their celebrity status, not paying their writers of course, right, and
you know getting paid in well this was it's not taxable either because you're not
physically getting paid. Well it was Brady. Yeah, but we don't know
if Brady was getting paid in bitcoin or cash, right, right, that's
a that's a funny thing. I'm gonna do a bitcoin thing. Give me
cash, yeah, talk about your bitcoin. I don't I don't know how
that there are some people like I think Elon still believes in bitcoin. There's
still a lot of like like heavy hitters who still believe in bitcoin. They
want bitcoin to be the currency. That's so there's still enough heavy hitters who
believe in comes back to now, Danny, when we were together, Matt,
you may not know this. We were together on CMF many years ago,
and we called him Chris Dan. Dan is born again and he's very
biblical and that's you yeah, oh my god, so why what he's busy?
So but what I was gonna say is, at one point in the
Bible they were trying to have one language and they were building the Tower of
Bible tower or yes, and also one currency, and now we seem to
be heading back to the right because for those who would be Bitcoin would be
universe and me like to me, like the Bible says that the Anti Christ
won't be revealed until after the rapture, right, because I have a few
suspicions on who it might be. The one thing about the one Bit I've
always liked Brady, He's a Michigan guy. The one thing about bitcoin is
we don't know who's behind it yet. We still don't know who this back
Shotoshi, who this Shotoshi guy is. It's an alias, and I'm wondering
if that's going to be the global currency that eventually rises. Everybody's got to
use through blockchain. Oh by the way, with blockchain, if you forget
your password after ten times, you're out. Somebody else gets that money,
or they could just kick out just no reason. Just buy at the end
of the level nine I murdered, okay, or is he hitting for the
clean up for the angels. I don't know. If you're looking to make
a quick cash rights, as Matt was saying, this generation with investments and
things looking for that quick fix, and there's a ton of these scheister selling
this stuff. Online all the time. I helped somebody become a millionaire,
and you know, you can buy their magazines or whatever they're doing. I
want to get rich by billified billified coin. There we go. I like
that barely different. You know. Last night and we didn't get to it
with jose p O, he said that he had a he doesn't like.
I don't know that. He said he doesn't like the Legalizatian marijuana. I
don't want to put words in his mouth, but I thought he said the
public consumption. That was, yeah, the public consumption. He didn't like
that he could just kind of go out and do it, and he didn't
explain. So I don't want to again paint somebody with something that I don't
fully understand. To that end, cannabis related er visits have leaped by forty
four percent from twenty nineteen to twenty twenty one, reaching nearly eighty four thousand
visits statewide and contributing to historic pandemic era strains on hospitals. Now I'm wondering
what's going on because I've always kind of joked that, not that I was
a big weed smoker, but growing up near Woodstock, it was around right
that I would say that I burned my hand in the making the Mazzarella states.
Come on, if you go to one of these any kind of legal
cannabis store, they have all these different names of stuff. It's almost like
it has to come with a restrictor plate like the NASCAR cars. I don't
understand, you know, what people are smoking or consuming, and I don't
think people understand what they're smoking consuming. I don't know if this is black
market stuff because we don't have legal shops here. I think there's one in
New York City that's a legal cannabis shop that for anybody you don't need a
medical marijuana license to buy. I think there might be one in Ithaca,
I think, okay, and then I'm not sure where else. I think
there's score in the state. But is there any oversight on this, like
is there an FDA that can approve the weed? I don't know the answer
to that. Well, that's what they were because it's the question becomes is
it the weed or are they eating edibles where they don't know what the dose
is. That's a great point, you know, if somebody I'm saying,
if people smoked pot, they know what you know, A joint does maybe
and they do a different strain, and you know, maybe, I don't
think the legalization, to your point, has taken it has brought in anybody
new to the smoking. I think it has brought people because you hear about
these people I had, I had an edible, I had a gummy I
had And I'm like, do you guys know how many what do they do?
It's in milligrams? Yeah, So usually I think, well, I
won't play stupid because so my mother was with my brother. My brother lives
in Kenny Bunk. They're at some party and they had gummies and they're like,
come on, come on, used to do it. My mother's like,
I've never done any kind of marijuana alcohol certainly Irish big time. But
so she popped one in and my brother starts FaceTime and going, you gotta
see mom. She's like a puddle, just laughing and had no idea and
then said she had like it really kind of screwed her up. And I
think it's a new sensation for people that if you got scared and you're by
yourself and you don't know what's happening, and you feel like your heart may
pop out of your chest, you may go to the emergency room and you
have no real These guys don't know. You're just supposed to turn on the
TV or put on the radio, hit some Pink Floyd and just chill out.
Well. I know two musicians in town and the story goes that they
shared like a brownie or something like that, and one had a little bit
more than the other and he ends up curled in a ball and they had
to bring him to the bedroom and he goes, please, don't leave me
and this other buddy, but he's like, don't worry, I won't leave
you. So he takes the other half of it. All of a sudden,
the two of them. One of the wives walk and sees the two
of them curled up in a room, like, what's the matter with you
guys? Oh, we gotta, we gotta, we gott a brownie and
I don't know what's going on, And they're like hallucinating, the two of
them on the floor. Sometimes that would sound like something more than something else
that just, um, I don't know what people put in there. The
gummies are the thing. I have eaten gummies now. I kind of like
the gummies occasionally. Um, but even that I don't think it's bringing new
smokers at least now. I had a teacher that did something that I don't
think anybody else in this room's teacher ever told them to do. My teacher
said, if you're going to smoke marijuana, if you are going to do
it, do it through a bomb, because the it burned so hot it
could, uh, the heat could melt the soldering on a roach clip from
marijuana. And you don't want that heat in your lungs. What's his point?
Okay, you could, really you could be such a great straight guy.
That was freaking funny. That's very funny. About three and ten,
marijuana users developed some form of addiction. Now, I was always told that
marijuana was not addictive, and that it was a psychological addiction. I have
no idea that was what was always I could see that where the propaganda was
like I need this to get through the day. Wouldn't that be an addiction?
I don't know how you like, I need this to take this test,
I need this to write this paper, I need this. Adderall becomes
an addictive thing for people who take it. Smoking becomes an addictive thing because
I need it. Nicotine, right, and maybe that's one where the body,
but maybe the body needs I don't. I have no idea. Look,
here's the bad part. You got a guy named Willie Nelson. He's
the worst spokesperson if you're against weed. Ever. He just turned ninety,
right, He smoked on the roof of the White House in nineteen seventy six
with Jimmy Carter's son. My father would smoke it when he had cancer.
He had billy beer. Yeah. So I don't know where where the truth
lies with this stuff. But these are the stats that are out. They
say that New York City leaped fifty two percent about forty three thousand visits due
to marijuana over a two year period twenty nineteen to twenty twenty one. Central
New York eighty two percent up. But eighty two percent was seven thousand,
six hundred eighty eight visits. Now you're going by population there, because New
York City had forty three thousand, it was only fifty two percent. So
that they just understand when percentages are what we're basing it on the number,
understand how math works. Stands. The Fingers had about thirty one hundred visits
in both twenty nineteen and twenty twenty one, and I'm wanting I would I
would love to know of those statistics. Yeah, what percentage? Once again,
is just the smoking versus edibles and the other What about this stuff that's
out there? Is this I really don't Delta nine and all these things that
are on they're synthetics. I think that might be a part of the problem.
That's awful. Yeah, that's all. There was one remember it was
when we were together. Yea, So we're going back about a decade the
bath sat craze. Yeah, and they were, but there was some kind
of synthetics people were having two I think that. Yes, all kinds of
knew. Yep, that's bad news. Yeah, I think I made a
parody song about it to hey, Jude not, I don't remember. In
other words, cannabis use is currently causing problems in the work and lives of
hundreds of thousands of New Yorkers, with an estimated one point six million adults
overall using the drug state wide. I don't again, if it's one point
six million in this state, that's pretty small, because what do we have
eight million in Manhattan? Yeah, yeah, it's people in New York state.
Have you guys ever do you guys drug test. We don't drug test,
but you know, we'd we'd hope that most of the people and we
keep an eye on everybody. But you know, in this in this business,
it's it's tough because you've got people that are working on people's cars.
You need to make sure everybody's yep, you know. But I think we've
got a good crew. We're blessed. We really are lower the car.
There's a tire missing. Are you high? But but it's it's you know,
like you said, legalizing and I don't really agree with lowering this barrier.
And I guess I'm more concerned with the kids. Yeah, it was
kids getting it right. You know, before at least people were hiding it
or whatever, and you know, now it's it what twenty one, you
can go and buy this stuff. I don't know if you can buy it
yet or if it's I don't know that you can buy it around here anywhere
because it hasn't illegally. They haven't done it with Apparently in Grease they closed
down what all the smoke shops because all of them were selling it. Well,
so what there I'm not saying all of them. I understand the majority
of them. I think there were some. And what they would do it
was gift with purchase a T shirt, Buy a T shirt for fifty bucks
and you get announce of weed hypothetically. It's amazing that that is legal.
And they want to take away our guest stoves by right, right, how
am I supposed to light my joint? Well, you have to use the
electric stove. Now, put your head down, I guess in your eye.
Yeah right, So our big lighter is going to be illegal. Yeah,
I know, you can't have zippo. All of it's gone gone.
Oh god, well it is weird like campfire. It's illegal. What is
going to happen with this? And this is it common sense? And I
understand because as you're saying, all the houses in addition, and I don't
think it's this as fast as I thought it was twenty fifty three. I
don't know why that numbers in my head for homes cars. I thought it
was twenty thirty five for New York State, but I thought there was a
fifty in there with with homes. All had to be compliant. No matter
when your home was built, it had to come off and be mostly electric.
There's a possibility and being slightly facetious, you know about the situation,
but it's I think I've heard something about twenty twenty six you have to pull
your permit to have natural gas in your house. No more natural gas after
that. Okay, you know this is a whole nother rabbit hole. We
can go down. But can the grid handle just electric? The scariest thing
is, yeah, go ahead. Now you have your you know, your
generac generator. If your power goes out, the generator goes on, it's
natural gas. They can control everything when you're all on power. I mean,
you don't have control by having natural gas that always flows. So it's
uh, I don't know. I'm a little put off by that. No,
I I kind of like what you're thinking. And I'm also thinking,
you know, one of the big things is hacking now, right, So
let's say somebody hacks into the grid and now you've got nothing. At least
in the other way you had gas, You could cook, you could do
something, right, But aren't they making the power meters? Aren't they looking
at making the power meters part of the you know, they're they're over the
internet and everything now as well. So that is scary, is true?
The whole thing is scary. Hey, what's your address again? But what
happened down in North Carolina when that guy was all upset and race and Randy
was down there over the shot transmitter or a transformer transformer because they were doing
some trans fstites were they were doing transformer. You saw they were down for
days. There were people, I mean, refrigeration, all that stuff.
Just think of go back to what were you here during the ice storm?
I was not, but it was yeah, yeah, I was back in
ninety one and you're in college. Yeah, okay, so I would.
I would have been that fisher and they. I mean it was like,
great if you were in college, but try having a family. What are
you doing? I guess you could put some stuff outside, but it was
starting to warm up your food. You lost so much. Oh that was
a mess. I remember family members coming over because we have a wood burning
fireplace, which it is probably gonna be illegal, but I mean I remember
people coming over and just for heat. Yeah, absolutely right. I went
to Niagara and everything up there was a disaster. It was really bad too.
Yeah, because now I grew up downstate and then we had a nice
storm in October once when the branches weren't exactly strong enough, you know,
they hadn't gotten completely dormant yet, right, and so power lines were down.
We were without power for a week. Me and my brother and sister
went to live with my grandmother, who was closer to New York City for
the week. My father stayed there because you just didn't know what was going
to happen at home and trying to keep the woodburning stove going so the pipes
didn't freeze and all that kind of shit. It's a big disaster. If
many fucks with that, you could be out for who knows how long.
But just imagine now where you don't have the gas generators. Yes, yes,
that's what I mean to your point. Yeah, it's not a I
don't think this is a smart Yeah, it's a revelations people. What was
that book they managed reading count or in high schools in nineteen eighty that's it?
Yeah. Uh, somebody did put on Reddit speaking of drugs. Okay,
and we'll see what you say in this. It's the am I an
asshole? I always like to kind of prouse these once in a while,
But this said, my husband has a sister that's been in and out of
treatments for her addictions for years. The family enabled her, and so does
my husband. She stayed over once and the next morning stuff was missing,
kids, PlayStation television. Do you ever have that word grill? You think
you have somebody like, let's say you had a party and you know someone's
those rumored to maybe take a few things, and yeah, might be a
little bit of a clepto. And then you can't find something and you start
to think, good, blame them. Yeah, but then you find it.
Yeah, you go shit if you call it neighbor, go hey,
hey, did you see John whatever? Right, I've met her when she
has been cleaned, says the author of this letter. Before for a few
months and let her meet the kids. She was in their lives for a
few months, and then she relapsed. I had to explain to my kids
why their aunt was was not going to be around. The longest she has
been clean is seven months. To be honest, I'm tired of letting her
back in and then she fucks up. She has been cleaned for two months
now, and my husband wants her to stay at the house and meet the
boys again. I told my husband that I won't let her back in this
house until she is cleaned for a year, or come back into my kids'
lives until that happens. This started in an argument. He left to cool
off, and his family called me a jerk. Am I an asshole?
No? They are, No, I mean seven months is her record?
Seven months is? How about you pass your own record before we start letting
you back into the family. I know it's a disease and everything else,
but you have to want to get it better. I'll give you a pass
the first time, but after that it's on you. I always got people
get you. See to get very upset when I would say this, and
I'll say it again, I'm not sure that it's a disease. Yeah,
there's some other lying issue, right, it's like self dedicating, Yeah,
like is there something? What else is going on? And can you get
to the root of this that maybe would avoid the addiction. I'm not.
I mean, I understand where it's it. I need to escape this.
This is horrible or whatever happens, I've seen it, I understand that.
I mean, I lived with a heroin addict. I've told this story.
Oh yeah, stuff went missing, Yeah, debit Carton for one thing.
I mean, yeah, so I don't have any sympathy. I understand it's
family one time, that's okay. That's the tough part is when it's family,
that's that's a tough part, especially if you're the parent to turn your
back on your kid. It seems like I believe in second chances, but
third and fourth, you're pushing at fifth, sixth, seventh. This woman's
not an a hole by any stretch. I think the family, if they've
been enabled her, then they're part of the problem too. Maybe they need
to have an intervention for them. Guys, Look, can't keep doing this,
can't. I know she's family tough love, Man, it has been
decided. Dan Cold said to me, it's one of those things that's it's
so easy. It's so much easier said than done. I know, let
let let your sister be God forbid, something happened, right, Could you
turn your back? It'd be tough, hard. I don't have to turn
your back. All she's saying it's like, I'm not gonna let her into
my kids' lives and she's not gonna live here. Right. But here's the
other problem. It's not her sister, right, So she's drawn this hard
line. It puts the husband in the bad spot, whose parents and all
the pressure from the family, it just becomes somebody's got to be the adult
in the house. Yeah, I hear you. You know I do.
I think that I'm more of a I think I have a soft spot for
people with padictions because I kind of go, well, it said something,
and I'll try to be nice. I don't want. But again, if
my ship has gone missing, or my kids getting hurt because there's this up
and down, or you're all over the place in some mania, I don't
really want. I know a guy who's I know two guys. They're brothers,
and the one brother got hooked on crack. He gets let out of
jail before he has accomplished his rehabilitation. The first thing he does is he
goes to his brother's house. His brother like takes him in. Next day,
the kid's PlayStation is missing and the brother's gone. He puts out a
post on Facebook, did not let so and so into your house. He
walked off with my kids PlayStation last night. It searched for money for drugs.
Now, I've heard since then that the guy's been cleaned now for three
years, but he's taken the initiative to do it, but at the time
the family, his brother had draw a line in the sand to say no,
no. I know it's his brother and not his brother in law in
this instance, but this was a situation where a guy's like, no,
enough, you hurt my family. One of the worst stories I ever heard,
and it was a friend of ours who told us was guy's dad died
and while the entire family was at the funeral, he broke in the house
to steal stuff because he knew what was there because he had such an addiction.
Oh wow, Yeah, didn't even go to his dad's own funeral,
or maybe was there to be seen for a minute and then back to the
house. Jeez. And I think got caught because he remember the story.
The story. Yeah, we'll take a moment and lighten it up. Toronto

Mul Conrey's Irish Pub, seventeen Liftbridge Lane, Eastern Fairport and online at multconres
dot com. House John Hyden, how do you know this? Wow?
Man, Now I'm really impressed. Yeah. He has a couple of car
songs. There was one I was looking for I couldn't find it. Well,
we were asking what's the worst car you ever drove? And Danny goes,
hey, we're gonna do that on So I'm assuming. So my family,
we were a Chrysler's family, Okay, Okay, so my father owned
Okay, from the time I was born a Dodge Magnum. That's Victor Chrysler
Dodge Ram right down there. Yeah, this is perfect. Yeah, I
know, Dodge Magnum. Okay, in eighty one Dodge Magnum, an Omni
this like yellow little Omni. Right, we were the Omnis with the hatchback.
Okay. Then like then a couple other cars, then christ from New
Yorker an eighty six Dodgs Ram pick up, an eighty eight Dodge Ram pick
up which I eventually drove and a New Yorker, and then eventually he bought
himself a ninety six Ram actually almost ran somebody old were in their car.
Decided to get rid of it because it was said so much horsepower, right,
and then eventually we just got the lineage of carnage of family. And
that's not including the non Dodge vehicles. But the christ were lebaric convertible too.
What was with rich Clinthian? Oh yeah, yeah it did. What
was the worst that the Dakota. It also had another Dakota RT that was
like a it was like a sports car type truck, the Dakota. Yeah,
at sixty thousand and one miles, that thing started tanking the bed.
Even the eighty eight truck was actually better built for some reason. The eighty
eight Dodge Ram with the remember the RAM, the RAM ornament, the hood
ornament in the front. I missed those. They gotta bring those back.
Yeah, that was something they just get stolen. That doesn't matter. Yeah,
that's what they didn't steal, mind, because I guess they respected me.
They're like, but they stole everybody, all right, because all the
Mercedes disappear to disappear. Yeah, I think the worst I know My dad
hates Toyota, will never buy another Toyota. Had bought a coroll the back
in the early seventies and I think if it rained, the thing wouldn't start
if the weather. He just would never really yeah yeah, wow, yeah,
this has never had luck with that, so he would never. But
that was his worst. I think my worst was a Subaru I bought when
I was a kid, and the engine was aluminum, so you could actually
it was soft. You could put your thumb, you like, press your
thumb into the engine and leave it like a thumb print. So I was
gonna do a tune up because I had taken a year off from college.
My old man goes, you know what, I want you to do your
own tune up, and he threw a buck at me and learn how to
do it. So I'm all, you know, and I kind of knew
some stuff. So I'm looking at it, and they started stripped because it
was aluminum, where do the spark plugs went? It would be like stripped
all the threading. So I had to pay somebody to re thread all the
pistons. Oh jeez, how much did that cost you? Oh? Yeah?
Yeah? And then so that was the worst that was the absolute worst.
But as a car guy, did you as a kid, did you
have any chunkers or was everything my father was in the You got the trade
ins, you got the worst of the world, You got the worst of
the worst. I had. I was just remembering. My favorite was a
Pantiac Grand Safari diesel wagon. Okay, I don't think I remember it.
Don't you remember we went through that. We had that oil and gas thing
in the seventies. Then for some reason they thought it'd be great to make
cars into diesels. Yeah, and we went through. I had an eighty
three Grand Prix diesel, which I missed that that was actually a great car.
But I had a couple of diesel station wagons. So that's funny because
I full sized diesel station wagon. I remember driving an eighty I think it
was an eighty one Volkswagen Rabbit diesel, right, and that that small little
car ran on diesel. And it was when I lived with my uncle in
Utah. So if you have these crisp clear mornings right out in the Washat's
chain of the of of the Rockies, and I would start that thing up
in a big bloom of bat the back man it was like, we just
see that shit. Somebody it did the same thing. I don't know.
I never did puff a black smoke ball. I missed those days. Yeah.
Well, I had a friend that had an owls I think it was
a Delta eighty eight. Oh yeah, big, big car, big car.
We used to take that down because there was places called the flats where
we lived, and we try to get it up. I think we got
it to like one ten. That was our fastest. We would love to
open that thing, but it was a huge engine. And his dad was
a mechanic and owned the garage in town that we were off the cars too,
so we would, you know, if something went wrong. I guess
we were okay. But yeah, those things were boats too. Oh big,
yeah big. I mean literally like driving a boat, the reaction time
you turn it and then the three seconds later the actual vehicle moves. Yeah.
Well, now everything is like you know, power steering. I mean
they make everything like that truck that I'm in from Victor Chrysler Dote ramp is
the easiest thing to drive. Oh go back for thirty years. You couldn't
drive something that big that easily. Is phenomenal. When my father like traded
the car the truck in the ram because it was so big that like it
was hard to he was a truck guy. It was hard for him to
handle at that point because he was like, he's a phraid he was gonna
run somebody over with it. Well, if cars in the past, way
back then, let's say they had those kind of screams, I would get
those when the car when the screen didn't work. That's the kind of car
I guy got traded in. It was gonna get, you know, gone
to what they call the wholesaler where they don't sell it to somebody, you
know, a real customer. That's but you know, I'm not complaining cars,
right right right. Cars they were cheap. It was good. My
dad had the four wheel driver, like not they had to go outside and
crank it. But like he turned the lug or turned the you know hobs.
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yas remember, yeah you pull,
you gotta pull the knob. But then you gotta go out and turn those
and pull. Yeah, it was it was the knob of the car to
be in parked to do the truck could be in parked to do it.
Now you just flip a switch, right, so all it is from inside.
I mean you could practically run a business out of these things. You
get the Wi Fi in there. If you're doing right, if you're doing
like anything like in the Winner, if you're plowing, you could send your
invoices immediately right right from there. If you're any kind of foreman on a
job, you can keep track of things. That becomes your mobile office.
You can listen to a podcast. You can really do anything. It's but
you can. That's the great thing. And it's easy, and it connects
right to your phone. I mean, there's they've taken everything and just made
it simple, like you know, and a lot. Again. We joke
about the RV's having nicer appliances than your home. Somebody, these cars are
nicer than probably the furniture and the comfort right right than your own home.
I'll just move into a Dodge Ram, you know, a nice and get
a nice Dodge Ram. You get a Myers camper behind it. I mean,
you can't eat it right, can't at all stop for a plate.
I mean, everything's good. Who needs a house? Somebody wrote me earlier
this week saying that they needed to have their palette cleansed after Mark Mark the
soldier was in here. Oh him too, with all the stories and stuff.
And then I saw something today and they just made a mental note of
it. I never heard this term before. I had heard people maybe doing
something, but I didn't think it was for pleasure necessarily, the cry gasm
during sex. Never heard of this. They see me neither, And I
guess this phenomenon where people start crying during sex is I don't want to say
it's gaining popularity, but maybe we're talking. Do you feel so good?
It's called a cry gasm, and it can happen when you're in the middle
of any form of sexual activity. According to a psychotherapist, her name is
Dana Dorfman. That explains it. She's PhDe okay uh. She co hosts
a podcast called two Moms on the Couch. Ye makes perfect sense. She
says, there's a few reasons why you might be crying. One, it's
just so good. Now. If that's the case, like you feel like
a hero. You beat your chest as you walk out. I'm calling Dan,
you will believe what I did? What I mean? My wife crying?
Wait? What it brings up bad memories? You're angry or anxious?
Angry? Sex can you have angry, I guess you can. I've heard
of people doing the doing the hate sex, get back together with a X
and they get angry and they just do hate sex. I've never experienced that,
and I've heard of it. Once they leave, they leave her.
The crying just pure regret already, that could just be it. You know
what funny thing is, she doesn't have that on here, but I think
that's probably the number one reason, pure regret, right. I think there's
got to be people not a cry gasher, but wake up in the middle
of the night. Now, maybe I'm the only one at some point in
my life where I had a panic in them and like, what did I
do that? You know, somebody may cry, staining the sheets a little
bit with it, the tears, the tears of what should be a cry.
That's just freaky, isn't it weird. I could see if somebody had
a bad sexual experience and it brought back repressed memories or something like that,
But that's hit. I can't see like some people out enjoying this so much.
By the way, speaking of crying, Mark is one of these guys
who could cry on demand. Yeah, I know that's why I wonder if
that's part he told this. One said he got pulled over and he started
crying, trying, he got out of the ticket as a guy. Seriously,
yes, seriously, yes, that's what he said. He cried,
he cried and got out of a ticket. Cop can't question it in New
York State anymore. They can't. They can't question whether you're identifying as that's
true. I don't know that would ruin the mood. Yeah, but I
was thinking of all the people that we know who would do a cry gas.
He's on the list. Oh, he's definitely on the list, on
the list, watching and waiting. I did see something earlier this week.
I went for a walk early and I'm going by that. You know how,
they have the E bank here, it's called ebank. Yeah, I
don't know if they deal in crypto. I don't know what it is.
Evans. I think it so Evans Bank. There's another one not far from
where I live. I'm walking by and I see a guy. It's I
think this is Sunday morning. So I see a guy and he's sitting in
his truck and I can't really tell what's going on. And I noticed that
he seems to be beyond the parking lot, so he's now and I thought
maybe he's in the grass, And then I noticed that it's kind of sloped
down and there's a great for water to run through and run off, and
they have rocks leading down to this great And then as I come around the
corner, I noticed there's a giant boulder and his truck is up. The
one front wheel is God, it's a one front wheel, Matt. It's
over and the truck is stuck on this. So as I'm walking back,
now, I live in an apartment over there. There's homes that go up
this this other street, and there's this young guy I'm assuming a dad because
he had every sign of being a dad on his car, and he's slowing
down and looking and looking, and I'm going, I don't know, And
the guy in the truck was sitting there. He's on the phone. So
I don't know. Did you park there and meet friends to take you out,
and then you went to get your truck the next day and you thought
it was in reverse because you're still hung over. I don't know how the
fuck you did this, Like I honestly got it was a giant rock,
Danny. This truck went up over and now is hanging on there like a
tea well not a teeter totter because the back wheld. Yes, the back
wheels are down, but there's no way off because you have no traction the
wheels beyond. It's basically like you put a jack under your car and it
just happens to be a luck. And there's not in high school wherebody would
prank you by putting cinder block some of the wheels of your truck or your
car. You could kiss right. Oh yeah, it's like that guy in
three one five who ended up like with this car going through the pole.
Oh yeah, like Dukes of Hazzard style. Yeah. Man, I don't
know how this. Um, I don't know. So I was sitting in
the truck at night. I kind of made eye contact with them as I'm
walking, but he was on the phone and he just seemed but I couldn't
tell until I came around the corner as to what had happened. I couldn't
see the passenger side of the vehicle. And then it's up on that rock
and I'm dying to know how it got off. I went to the other
side. No, I didn't say anything. He didn't. Well, right,
I wish I could say, do you need help? But he was
on the phone. You can't from the fair Port Police Department, right,
No, this is uh well yeah, it's it's it's a thirty one.
You're right. I mean you'd go two fifty thirty one and there's an Evans
Bank up there. Oh ok yeah, but I've never seen that. I
go what, I'm dying to know what happened? That's all? Yeah,
you can distract him, but woman walking about? No, No, I'm
just I'm just trying to think of like I'm trying to picture this, like
like like I'm dumbfounded out. What would you usually if it's young guys,
I could see it. This wasn't a young guy. What I was doing
the demonstration for what that's happened. That's basically what happened, except it's up
over that wheel. I I don't I don't know right where? What was
what was going through your head? Yeah? Why are you doing this?
And by the way, look to be a guy in his forties, right
unless it was his kid and he's coming to come get it out, Okay,
that that would make sense, make sense, That would make sense,
Like what'd you do now, junior. It was about a fib about a
fib What time is that tomorrow? Around noon or one o'clock, one o'clock.
Excuse me, one o'clock. Thank you. I appreciate that, Danny.
This is an echo cardiogram. Yes, so you get a nice picture
your heart. Yeah, yeah, I hope I could take it home too.
They put it on a disc usually for you. Oh they do,
yet they didn't time. I've had this before. Yeah, so you said,
you just so, I'm gonna dress up because you know, you get
better treatment at the doctor's office. No, I do. I actually like
have doctor's pants, I said, I call these are my doctor's pants.
No, I said, if you go to the emergency room. Oh,
I do this for the doctor's office. Doctors too, but usually there The
last time I went for they know you, right, because you've been there
before. This is echo cardioca. This is a specialist. Right. So
the last time I went in there, I was the youngest person in there
by like twenty years. Yeah. And everybody in there like like it looks
like they're like, you know, farmers and jeans and like canes and I
was yelling with brown hair. Everybody else had white hair in there. I'm
like, oh, this is not a good song. I'm a young guy.
But then I said, I said that to the to the nurse or
the person doing the procedure. She goes, no, this is good.
You're getting ahead of it now. These people, like, you know,
it might be too late for them, Like, do you want me to
tell them so they don't waste their money? Did you have anybody in there
that started to talk to you about French fries. No. I remember my
wife being in for heart procedure and an old guy comes in. He goes,
he was volunteering. You know, I was on this floor about five
years ago. Let me tell you something. Don't eat French fries. That
was a big thing. Don't eat French fries. And I gotta tell you,
maybe he's right. Sometimes I think of that and I want to order
I want to order French fries because of it. That's what are you?
You're done? Yeah? Yeah, Tater times from now on, what if
we had an echo cardiogram of Kevin and one of you when we compared him
to get the guests like worse, worse, you gotta find my heart first,
Like the giddest taste tests we did with the non alcoholic moun It's like,
okay, hearts. I'm so staying out of this conversation. Yea.
I try walking. I hate when you walk into the doctor's office. I
completely you know, the nurse comes and get you from the waiting room and
they bring you right over to the scale. I try walking by. No,
no, no, come back, come back. Oh yeah, I
did that too. I just want to walk by. Damn, don't come
here if I'm gonna take off five pounds because you've got your jeans on.
Okay, so that's what they say. Now I say st thing, and
I don't. I didn't know if I had a look in my face or
not, because I recently had a call an endoscopy. Endoscopy where they go
down your throat just to check, and I had to get on the scale
and she said to me, I'll take off a few pounds for clothes and
sneakers or shoes or whatever. And I went, do I have, like,
do I look like I care? This isn't a vanity contest. I
would you mind taking off seventy I don't give a shit, but I'm wondering
if women probably don't like I remember I remember this because I thought it was
one of the meanest things I ever saw. And I was I was really
young. I was in junior high or what they call middle school now.
I think we were in seventh or eighth grade, and they had everybody.
They were doing body fat percentages in the gym class, so they would weigh
you and then they were pinching you with the calipers on the back of your
arm and stuff. And there was this girl, her name, I'll never
forget her a full name, but the last name was Campanella, and her
family owned the ice cream shop we used to go to after literallygue games.
It was campis right. You would go there or if your team won,
and he get hot dogs and all this stuff. And I'll never forget they
yelled out her weight into this day, how many millions of years ago that
was, I can remember it. And she started to cry, and I
was like, that's the meanest I was were as a young boy. Wait
meant nothing to me. My personal weight, It didn't matter. I wanted
to be heavier, bigger, bulker, bulkier. I wanted to play football.
You know, there's the older guys across the field. I wanted to
be so putting on weight for me, it was like, yeah, let's
do it. This they yelled out. I think it was one hundred and
fifty eight pounds. She started crying because all the other girls in the class
were lighter one night and she wasn't even disproported. I don't even remember thinking
of her as fat, right, you know she's big bound. I know
she was just like I never thought about it, but I was like,
that's thirteenest thing ever. So it brought me back when the doctor says I'll
take a few points a few pounds off and going, well, I don't
care to I don't care, but obviously I think people do. Yeah,
listen, I looked like Jonah Hill from Super But you don't give a shit,
right, I mean not that, I mean it doesn't matter to you.
It doesn't. I'm not vain. I don't care. I really don't
know. I don't think most guys do. The only thing I worry about,
like when I go to my cardiologist. I sit there and he goes
through everything, and I love the look of disgust when they say the fact,
I hope, well everything's all right. I'm like, I'm sorry,
Yeah, I'm sorry. We were really hoping. Yeah, we have some
bad news. We can't explain this. We had an office pool. You
were doing just so you know what, you're overweight, you're gonna have to
lose. You know, you're gonna have to lose. No shit, you
want to school for that right now. And they're just disappointed. It's like
they want to you know, you got a block injured. There is a
psychological disorder they call white coat syndrome. When people who had normal otherwise normal
blood pressure walk in. Yeah, they see the doctor, the nerves take
their blood pressure, they get nervous to their blood pressure spikes, so all
of a sudden it's like, oh, it looks like you have high blood
pressure here, you know, and you don't necessarily, it's just it's just
spikes when you see something has been up. When I go in now,
like it's been one thirty three over eighty two or something that, which isn't
bad, no, but they go, that's high for me, right,
So when I'm I'm looking at they'll always say to me, let's wait fifteen
minutes and we'll do it again. Okay, one twenty over sixty five according
to the garment watch, So look at that. See these things are great.
That's how he found out about Danny. Really. Yeah, that's I
mean, that's like I thought it was a huge, huge Yeah, cause
of stroke and things like that. It's great that you found that, right,
So that's when I call my doctor and it called because I got to
see you today like today. Yeah, it's it's serious. I think that's
the greatest endorsement for any one of these smart watches. Seriously. Yeah,
because as a young guy, you probably wouldn't even think of it, right,
It's not in your realm of thinking that my heart's going to be bad
and I'm good. I'm young, and because of my blood pressure and my
migraines. Okay, I was on so much medication that I didn't notice it.
I said, if you weren't on all this medication, you probably would
have noticed something pounding out of your chest, but because the medication works,
would notice it. But your fitbit caught it. Yeah. Did you have
that fluttery did you have that flattery feeling in your heart? Nothing? So
you had nothing, slept right through it. And that's a fit bit watch.
Yeah. My wife got for me a couple of Christmas man, that's
what I'm saying. Any of these smart watches, right, yeah, the
Garmen, the Apple, the Fitbit. Probably a good investment for anybody.
I'm peaking to you, Kevin, I'm kidding. I should get one.
You might need two of them. No, I'm just joking. You sleep
an. I don't like that anymore, do you sleep? I'm fine.
I'm healthy as an ox. I'm sure, well you you'd look like you're
healthy. He's an ox. But I'm no, no story, no,
no, no, I'm not. He's nineteen twenties. You look like Kevin
looks as young as he did when I first met him. Like he doesn't
look like an older guy. He doesn't, so that so clearly that's true.
But no sleep, apne and nothing like when you shaved your face by
accident because because you you had to, you didn't have to know, you
didn't know the right setting on the on the man you'd like you dropped like
twenty years an age. You look very young. It's the beard banksmoke golder.
I guess carded what he goes in places whops rung wrunk. So there
we go. We'll close it out for mad from Victor Chrysler Dodge cheap Ram
Route ninety six and Victor, thanks for coming out. Very funny, very
