1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:04,040
bTB wood Fire Pizza and Grill.
So much more than just the wood Fire

2
00:00:04,120 --> 00:00:06,280
Pizza. Man, do they do
a great job over there. They're having

3
00:00:06,320 --> 00:00:09,759
an Easter brunch that's this Sunday,
March thirty. First, you can make

4
00:00:09,759 --> 00:00:13,720
your reservations if you haven't, I
would do it quickly by going online at

5
00:00:13,720 --> 00:00:18,839
bTB rock that's btbroc dot com.
But you know, we're coming to the

6
00:00:18,920 --> 00:00:23,000
end of the month and they do
specials every month. I actually get excited

7
00:00:23,039 --> 00:00:25,320
knowing a new month is coming and
there's going to be new specials. But

8
00:00:25,440 --> 00:00:29,280
you gotta take advantage of this month's
specials. The Shepherd's Pie. I have

9
00:00:29,320 --> 00:00:31,640
to tell you that I had a
discussion with my dad. He lives out

10
00:00:31,640 --> 00:00:34,840
of state, and he said to
me, I had Shepherd's Pie and wasn't

11
00:00:34,840 --> 00:00:36,960
that good? And they seem to
reverse things. They go, Man,

12
00:00:38,039 --> 00:00:42,200
there's a Shepherd's Pie that everybody needs
to try, and it's at bTB Woodfire

13
00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:45,119
Pizza and Grill, right, so
much more than Woodfire Pizza. The Tipsy

14
00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:51,920
Shamrock which Matt brought in this week. He manages bTB and that was amazingly

15
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:58,520
delicious, like almost almost dangerously delicious. If there could be such a thing,

16
00:00:58,840 --> 00:01:03,439
all right. The pizza of the
month is a Buffalo Chicken Alfredo buffalo

17
00:01:03,479 --> 00:01:07,519
sauce, fried chicken, muzzarella bacon. You got the guinness Chuck Late Moose

18
00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:11,319
is the dessert of the month.
Take advantage of these and the shareable all

19
00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:15,359
the old Bay Crab dip with chips. It's all at bTB, wood Fire

20
00:01:15,439 --> 00:01:25,239
Pizza and Grill in the Mall at
Greace Ridge. Ol Connors and Paris had

21
00:01:25,239 --> 00:01:30,159
two six to two comp today Comedy
after Carlson's The Very Funny Ron Funchius this

22
00:01:30,239 --> 00:01:34,359

23
00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:42,200
know who already. I'm very hilarious. There's a good human. If you

24
00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:46,120
don't know me, I'm happy to
tell you about myself. Tell you about

25
00:01:46,159 --> 00:01:53,400
my comedy because it's a little different. I know Lacamedians like to talk about

26
00:01:53,439 --> 00:01:57,200
things they hate, things that bother
them, politics, stuff like that.

27
00:01:57,599 --> 00:02:01,000
I don't really do that. I
have to talk about things I love and

28
00:02:01,159 --> 00:02:05,840
enjoyed. It could be very specific. I love weed, I love it.

29
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:19,639

Rochester area, he has set the Guinness

39
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:15,960
record for the most consecutive years on
television fifty eight. We should do a

40
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:21,080
Guinness toast leading up to his last
show, Scary O' Talk on June sixth.

41
00:03:21,159 --> 00:03:23,960
Yeah, when he takes the air
for the last time, it won't

42
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:27,319
be any news he'll be. It'll
be just his big, sad, soppy

43
00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:29,960
story. I don't know. He
he's retiring to go be the voice of

44
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:32,039
Keed Brockman from the Simpsons. I
heard that guy's retiring too, so it's

45
00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:37,039
gonna be a seamless transition. Yeah, he's just a great dude. Nobody's

46
00:03:37,039 --> 00:03:39,560
gonna I've never heard a bad thing
about him. All Right, I'll say

47
00:03:39,599 --> 00:03:42,840
something bad about him, Okay,
we I'm gonna say something bad about it

48
00:03:43,199 --> 00:03:46,840
about about Don Alhart. I did
an interview with Don Alhart, and it

49
00:03:46,879 --> 00:03:53,680
was like I couldn't wrap it up. I couldn't get I couldn't wrap it

50
00:03:53,759 --> 00:03:55,520
up. Gonna best. I don't
know. I don't know if that's a

51
00:03:55,520 --> 00:04:01,879
bad thing or not. I'm just
saying very extremely verbose, like a d

52
00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:05,360
d whmember. We we had a
roast for our friend Tom mulay on the

53
00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:11,520
air when Tommy turned fifty. Yeah, and Don came on and roasted Tommy

54
00:04:11,919 --> 00:04:14,919
on his birthday. Talked about all
the stuff that went on around his birthday,

55
00:04:14,919 --> 00:04:17,000
which like which had something to do
with like the astronauts, all this

56
00:04:17,199 --> 00:04:21,639
history. He's very very interesting and
he's a treasure. Truly, is right?

57
00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:29,759
Truly in the studio tonight is John
link Up from wine Bow Incorporated?

58
00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:31,519
Is that correct? Correct? Talk
right into them? What is this?

59
00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:38,839
What is the CSW? CSW is
Certified Specialist of Wine, Certified Specialists of

60
00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:44,199
wine. How does one become a
certified specialist of wine? So it was

61
00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:46,519
many years of many years of training. So yeah, I started. I

62
00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:51,480
started in the business in two thousand
and two at the Genesee Valley Club downtown,

63
00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:57,319
Okay, and I was just working
there on weekends while I was finished

64
00:04:57,319 --> 00:04:59,560
in college and I was going to
school for criminal justice. I wanted to

65
00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:02,279
be a cop, and I interned
with the city Police department and absolutely hated

66
00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:04,480
it. It's kind of funny,
you know, cops like to drink and

67
00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:09,319
hear and what. There you go. It works out well, saying the

68
00:05:09,319 --> 00:05:15,319
Genesee Valley Commercial Genesee Valley was that
you? Valley Club? Oh? Okay,

69
00:05:15,639 --> 00:05:20,879
Gennessee Valley is that you're thinking of? Joey BRICADOCT. Yeah. Genesee

70
00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:25,959
Valley Club is a great like rest
club downtown. They got like indoor tennis

71
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:30,360
courts and all. Who's the majer
D Gennaro Gennaro still still there? Yeah,

72
00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:33,839
he's got to be like eighty five
eighty six. Yeah, I be

73
00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:39,360
gone longer. I think set a
Guinness record for the longest serving majer D.

74
00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:45,439
The real home kidding retired the same
day. He still goes to the

75
00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:47,959
Philippines every summer on vacation, goes
and hangs out and parties and does his

76
00:05:48,079 --> 00:05:51,759
team, comes back and just rocks
it out. Changes his tuxs five times

77
00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:58,519
during weddings and everything. It's pretty
crazy. He's a fantastic I think my

78
00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:00,040
brother in law was a member there
at one point, because when my parents

79
00:06:00,079 --> 00:06:04,800
celebrated their twenty fifth anniversary, we
all went there and my brother in law

80
00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:09,319
was an avid squash player, d
one squash player to he said, Oh,

81
00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:11,160
yeah, this is a squash score. That's where I play squash.

82
00:06:11,199 --> 00:06:15,480
I'm like, that's awesome, man, thanks congratulations. The place used to

83
00:06:15,519 --> 00:06:17,240
have a bowling alley in the back, like it was nuts man. They

84
00:06:17,319 --> 00:06:20,399
changed into a gym because no one
was using the bowling alley anymore. But

85
00:06:20,879 --> 00:06:24,800
they've got two restaurants in there,
great food, do weddings, all sorts

86
00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:29,399
of fun stuff. What all right, So the career starts there, starts

87
00:06:29,439 --> 00:06:32,560
there? Okay? So I was. I was working a private party for

88
00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:38,639
a CEO of bauschin Lam at the
time, and he brought all of his

89
00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:41,879
own wine from his wine cellar.
Then had me like tending bar in his

90
00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:45,920
private room and opening all the wines, and he sends me back a couple

91
00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:46,920
of glasses of wine. He's like, here, try this. You know,

92
00:06:46,959 --> 00:06:49,800
this is cool stuff. And I
didn't know at the time, but

93
00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:53,160
I was drinking some of the best
wines in the world. Yeah, And

94
00:06:53,199 --> 00:06:56,560
I tasted it, and I'm like, that's the most amazing thing I've ever

95
00:06:56,600 --> 00:06:59,839
tasted in my life. And I
went down to my boss that day and

96
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:02,720
it was still, you know,
just a part time bartender, make an

97
00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:05,439
ends meet. And I'm like,
how do I make this into a career

98
00:07:05,439 --> 00:07:09,279
because this is amazing And he's like, well, you can become a psalm.

99
00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:11,519
I'm like, what do I gotta
do to do that? Yeah,

100
00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:15,920
so say the full time I screw
this up there, I always say it's

101
00:07:15,839 --> 00:07:19,680
a yeah. So it's way finally
got it? Was it that a dealership

102
00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:24,720
in Honeyway Falls. It's way better
than others. I've heard some people case

103
00:07:24,959 --> 00:07:30,040
Somalian yeah, but I usually said
yeah, yeah, Okay. I always

104
00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:33,680
say you're you're on top of it. That is uh, that is really

105
00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:36,600
tough to get it is. It's
crazy. It's crazy. So I studied.

106
00:07:36,639 --> 00:07:41,120
I've actually flew down and back every
Tuesday for six months down in New

107
00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:46,519
York City to do a program called
the Certified are the Somalia Society of America.

108
00:07:46,079 --> 00:07:48,720
And at the end of it there's
a test and there was forty five

109
00:07:48,759 --> 00:07:53,639
people in our class, and eight
of us passed. Wow, you're kidding.

110
00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:56,399
No, it was rough. It's
that low of a percentage. Huh

111
00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:59,959
hard. So there's the first due. The test is in three parts.

112
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:03,199
So there's a theory part, which
is like one hundred multiple choice questions and

113
00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:07,480
they can ask you anything over the
course of the world of wine. And

114
00:08:07,519 --> 00:08:09,480
then the second part is an essay
part, and you pick like three of

115
00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:13,720
five things and write essays on them. It's like a region's test too.

116
00:08:13,879 --> 00:08:18,839
Yeah, pick three of five essays
you choose to dude. The last part

117
00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:22,199
is a tasting part where they give
you five wines. They don't tell you

118
00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:24,160
what they are, where they're from. They just hand them to you in

119
00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:28,439
a glass and you have to identify
what they are, what the grape is,

120
00:08:28,279 --> 00:08:33,320
what region they're from, approximately how
old they are. So I have

121
00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:41,120
always secretly referred to wine tastings as
adult hide and seek pretty much, because

122
00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:46,600
you're you know, you're searching for
that flavor that you're told is there,

123
00:08:46,639 --> 00:08:50,000
but you can't really find it because
you're not you're not refined. I have

124
00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:52,519
no idea, and I love I
always I used to do a joke where

125
00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:56,039
you know, you go to a
vineyard and you're in, you're tasting,

126
00:08:56,039 --> 00:09:00,519
and everybody starts using the snobby wine, is this oky? Is this okay?

127
00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:01,519
You know that kind of thing,
and then we're in, that's the

128
00:09:01,639 --> 00:09:05,159
that's the one where right, it's
okay, And then they start going,

129
00:09:05,399 --> 00:09:07,799
you know, you could taste a
little lavender in this, and if you

130
00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:11,080
go and maybe he tastes a little
some of the little grasses, and oh,

131
00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:15,559
can you taste the Asian pear?
We have Asian pear? And I

132
00:09:15,639 --> 00:09:16,679
go, I'm looking at my buddies
and they're going, oh yeah, yeah,

133
00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:20,679
yeah, yeah, I can wait
a second. Your tongue is so

134
00:09:20,799 --> 00:09:26,120
good. Not only can you determine
the fruit, but what continent is from?

135
00:09:26,279 --> 00:09:30,000
Because I walked around this place,
I didn't see pear or an Asian.

136
00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:33,919
Yeah yeah, this is definitely some
antarcticle fruits. So I always went,

137
00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:39,360
but to me, what you do
is amazing, Like, how do

138
00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:43,919
I would assume our tongue is pretty
similar. We're both human. So I

139
00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:48,159
took I took so many notes going
through that wine program that I have a

140
00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:52,600
binder of tasting notes that I've written
and just pulling out individual flavors and smells

141
00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:56,639
from different wines. Yeah, and
it comes to a point now where instead

142
00:09:56,639 --> 00:09:58,879
of, you know, trying to
figure out what it is, the key

143
00:09:58,919 --> 00:10:03,039
is you figure out what it's not. Oh yeah, interesting, I have

144
00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:07,799
a question, might tull like a
dumb question? We learned yeah, you

145
00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:13,240
talk to me. Yet we learned
science class that there are genes that could

146
00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:16,159
taste certain tastes and jeans that that
or if you don't have this gene,

147
00:10:16,279 --> 00:10:18,919
you can't taste certain taste. And
they had us all taste a piece of

148
00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:22,960
paper. Those are always the soo, we found the eight people in that

149
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:26,200
class that had that gene. That's
my question. Do you have to have

150
00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:30,159
a gene to taste certain taste for
for this role? Nope? Okay no.

151
00:10:30,279 --> 00:10:33,360
In fact, I'm not a super
taster. So they're super tasters are

152
00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:39,440
generally female, actually believe or not
surprised. They're always you know, women

153
00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:41,440
can smell in anything, right,
But were you with last night? Was

154
00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:46,799
it Jerry, right, But you
can also train you could you can train

155
00:10:46,919 --> 00:10:50,559
yourself to pick up certain things like
there's there's certain times where you put your

156
00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:52,919
nose in a glass of wine and
something pops out, like and it could

157
00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:58,120
be something stupid, like there's there's
a particular a grape called vidal blanc.

158
00:10:58,159 --> 00:11:01,279
They grow at a ton in the
finger legs and every time I smell it,

159
00:11:01,279 --> 00:11:03,120
it smells like you're opening up a
brand new pool toy and it's got

160
00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:07,919
that like vinyl po oh yeah yeah. So every time I pick that up,

161
00:11:07,919 --> 00:11:09,799
I'm like, oh, I know
that's vidal block because that every single

162
00:11:09,879 --> 00:11:13,639
time, Wow, it's always that
wan aroma that pops out. So when

163
00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:18,559
you become a psalm, as you
said, I'm going to shorten it to

164
00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:22,440
that to save myself a good what
is usually the next step, because you

165
00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:26,720
could do anything right. You could
be hired on staff at a vineyards that

166
00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:31,200
and restaurant, high end restaurants.
You can do what you're doing now.

167
00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:35,919
So my goal at the time was
to be in the restaurant business because I

168
00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:39,639
really enjoyed it a lot of fun. I did that for almost five years,

169
00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:43,159
and then eventually I just got burnt
out it because it's exhausting. Yeah,

170
00:11:43,919 --> 00:11:46,919
and then I and then I got
into retail, and I worked in

171
00:11:46,039 --> 00:11:50,039
retail for ten years, and I
really enjoyed that. I was, you

172
00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:54,039
know, picking wines for the store, helping our customers find new wines.

173
00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:58,759
I was teaching wine classes doing all
that. That's that's I think my biggest

174
00:11:58,799 --> 00:12:03,000
passion is really education. I can
see that just by the way you're speaking.

175
00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:09,519
And what I think is kind of
interesting is the love of it.

176
00:12:09,639 --> 00:12:13,279
But it's an art for you,
isn't it. It is? Yeah,

177
00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:16,039
I mean it's it's truly like art. Well, the mastery that goes into

178
00:12:16,159 --> 00:12:20,720
making the wine and doing all that. That's a real appreciation. See,

179
00:12:20,759 --> 00:12:22,399
that's the stuff that I, honestly
I get jealous of. It's really cool.

180
00:12:22,399 --> 00:12:24,840
I really am a little envious to
that because I think that's very cool

181
00:12:24,879 --> 00:12:28,480
to have that. The biggest thing
is that there's so many pitfalls in the

182
00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:33,320
wine making process that can just ruin
it. And it's like that it just

183
00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:39,399
happens immediately. If the fermentation isn't
done perfectly at the right temperature, it'll

184
00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:43,399
get stuck and then the entire batch
of wine is ruined. There's certain faults

185
00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:46,440
that end up in wine, like
volatile acidity that can get in there,

186
00:12:46,519 --> 00:12:50,039
bacterial issues that can get in there, and you can smell it, and

187
00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:54,799
you can smell it in the end
result. So unless you're really careful with

188
00:12:54,919 --> 00:12:58,799
how you're doing it, making sure
everything's very clean, making sure that the

189
00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:03,679
wine making facility itself is very clean, you're gonna end up with wine that's

190
00:13:03,759 --> 00:13:09,039
just faulty and no one's gonna go
I remember neighbors and I used to used

191
00:13:09,039 --> 00:13:13,759
to buy like a case and we
would call it the two buck Chuck and

192
00:13:13,879 --> 00:13:16,919
it was from Argentine. It was
an Argentinian wine, but it was basically

193
00:13:18,120 --> 00:13:20,559
all I want to say, like
the overflow that they just blended together.

194
00:13:20,879 --> 00:13:26,840
Would that be sure? And it
just tasted I mean I say this after

195
00:13:26,039 --> 00:13:30,320
like two or three glasses, I
think your tongue swells. I can't tell.

196
00:13:30,799 --> 00:13:35,279
I couldn't tell no after after a
while. We in the business,

197
00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:37,200
we call it palette fatigue. Basically
you're just hammered and you can't focus on

198
00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:43,840
anything right. So that's interesting.
So I was looking for someone to come

199
00:13:43,879 --> 00:13:46,480
in and I thought it'd be fun
to do a wine tasting and then also

200
00:13:46,799 --> 00:13:52,200
around Easter, and John was like, I just worked out perfectly to tell

201
00:13:52,279 --> 00:13:56,000
people what maybe you want to pick
up for the weekend. If you've got

202
00:13:56,039 --> 00:13:58,840
family coming in, that may pair
well with I think a lot of people

203
00:13:58,879 --> 00:14:03,759
eat ham On on Easter. Yeah
that's the plan. Yeah, it's usually

204
00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:05,799
right. Yeah, because the Catholic
Church, you weren't allowed to eat meat

205
00:14:05,879 --> 00:14:09,480
meat on Fridays and then in the
three days leading up to eat to Easter.

206
00:14:09,840 --> 00:14:13,960
Yes, so everybody went with ham
right. So but I don't know

207
00:14:15,120 --> 00:14:16,879
does wine pair with him? It
does? Oh yeah, you can pare

208
00:14:16,919 --> 00:14:20,480
wine with anything. I figured you
could. Yeah, the old Dago red

209
00:14:20,519 --> 00:14:22,799
billy exactly, like my grandpa used
to make the big gallon at Paisano.

210
00:14:24,039 --> 00:14:26,759
Yeah, look at this. He
knows well that spell like, oh my

211
00:14:26,799 --> 00:14:31,759
grandpa exactly. So John was kind
enough to bring in a couple of bottles

212
00:14:31,799 --> 00:14:35,000
of wine and tells it I because
I said to him, can you recommend?

213
00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:37,240
And I was thinking something like a
ten dollars price point? But he

214
00:14:37,279 --> 00:14:41,919
brought up a good A good thing. The price has gone up on things,

215
00:14:41,159 --> 00:14:43,960
you know. The one I usually
go to as a default because I

216
00:14:45,039 --> 00:14:50,080
do like cabs and bigger reds is
the Josh. I just I just like

217
00:14:50,159 --> 00:14:52,120
the Josh Cabernet. It just seems
solid and it's fine. And that's usually

218
00:14:52,159 --> 00:14:56,159
about twelve thirteen bucks. That's it, and that's you know. That's the

219
00:14:56,240 --> 00:14:58,000
thing is if if you find something
that you like in a price point that

220
00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:01,080
you like, yeah, that's awesome. Yeah. And one of the things

221
00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:05,480
I'd love to do as a retailer
was I used to say, oh,

222
00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:07,279
you like that wine, it's twelve
bucks. How about I find one that's

223
00:15:07,320 --> 00:15:11,879
even better that you'll like even more
for a buck less? Really? Yeah,

224
00:15:11,399 --> 00:15:15,080
So how many wines do you taste? You know? And you can

225
00:15:15,159 --> 00:15:18,399
remember all this? You can remember
all of it. It's like a catalog.

226
00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:22,759
It's not its head, it's it's
nuts. And I don't know how

227
00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:26,080
my brain works that way. Like
I'll forget to take the trash out on

228
00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:28,080
a weekly basis, but I'll remember
some wine. You're like, guys,

229
00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:31,919
you're like danding with sports stats.
Yeah, yeah, that's amazing. So

230
00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:35,720
what do we have there? So
one is that a pinot? It is

231
00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:39,679
so I brought up So I was
thinking specifically with ham in mind, and

232
00:15:39,799 --> 00:15:43,919
generally when you pair food and wine, you want to look at the protein,

233
00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:46,960
look at the richness of the protein, and then pair of wine that

234
00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:54,440
matches. So, being that ham
is a lighter protein without a ton of

235
00:15:54,519 --> 00:15:56,360
fat content, you want something a
wine that's a little bit softer, a

236
00:15:56,440 --> 00:16:00,480
little bit lighter. So I brought
a pinau no wire and red. I

237
00:16:00,559 --> 00:16:03,200
brought a great rose from the south
of France in the Provence region, and

238
00:16:03,279 --> 00:16:07,200
then I brought a reestling with just
a touch of sweetness for people that might

239
00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:11,639
not like dryer wines. I got
so and all three of them will work

240
00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:14,600
with ham. So yeah, we'll
start here. We'll taste some stuff,

241
00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:17,399
all right. I want to and
walk us through like you would teach a

242
00:16:17,440 --> 00:16:19,519
class, because I want to see
if I can pick anything out or if

243
00:16:19,559 --> 00:16:23,200
it is just as I always joked, the adult hide and seek. Well,

244
00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:29,440
So one of the one of the
important things with wine is you know,

245
00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:34,240
unlike unlike some psalms that are that
are super you know that are super

246
00:16:34,279 --> 00:16:37,600
stuck on themselves and think I'm right, You're wrong. There's no right and

247
00:16:37,679 --> 00:16:42,159
wrong with wine. Everybody's palette works
completely differently. What you taste and what

248
00:16:42,279 --> 00:16:47,000
you taste I might not taste,
and vice versa. So you can use

249
00:16:47,039 --> 00:16:51,600
the example that you said earlier about
you know, everybody having a different tasting

250
00:16:51,639 --> 00:16:55,679
profile, Like some people to cilantro
to some people taste like just soap,

251
00:16:56,080 --> 00:16:57,480
yes, And it's just a genetic
thing and that's just how it is.

252
00:16:57,960 --> 00:17:00,759
Some people like tomato, some people
hate tomatoes. Well, the flavor of

253
00:17:00,799 --> 00:17:03,839
the tomato doesn't change. The chemical
makeup of the tomato stays the same.

254
00:17:04,279 --> 00:17:11,000
It's how your brain perceives what your
taste. So everybody tastes things very,

255
00:17:11,079 --> 00:17:15,359
very differently. Yeah, like I
hate nanners. My daughter hates bananas too,

256
00:17:15,519 --> 00:17:18,240
She's so gross. I'm like,
how do you eat bananas? Come

257
00:17:18,279 --> 00:17:25,559
on in? So the one thing
that everybody can feel the same way,

258
00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:30,160
though, is acidity tannins. And
tannins are like when you drink a big

259
00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:33,839
red wine and it tightens up your
tongue, sweetness, It sits in the

260
00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:37,839
middle of your palate that the acidity
kind of rounds out the sides of your

261
00:17:37,839 --> 00:17:41,920
tongue and it makes you salivate a
little bit. And then alcohol you feel

262
00:17:41,960 --> 00:17:47,319
it, like if you drink like
a barrel caskaged or a cask strength bourbon

263
00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:48,480
or something, Yeah, you feel
it in the back of your throat.

264
00:17:48,519 --> 00:17:52,720
Right up into your nose. You
can feel alcohol from wine the same way.

265
00:17:52,039 --> 00:17:56,880
So when people smell, you'll see
people take the big sniff and all

266
00:17:56,960 --> 00:18:00,880
that. What is that? What
does that do? It just it it

267
00:18:00,039 --> 00:18:03,039
gives you an idea, No,
not at all, It just it gives

268
00:18:03,079 --> 00:18:06,680
you. It gives you an idea
of the aroma of this wine. So

269
00:18:07,279 --> 00:18:14,839
when when you're when you put your
nose into this wine, so you get

270
00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:17,599
a little bit of that kind of
there's a there's a little bit of minerality

271
00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:19,799
to it, like a wet stone
almost. Yes, So that wet stone

272
00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:23,440
is because of where this is from. So this is from the Mosel River

273
00:18:23,559 --> 00:18:33,920
Valley in Germany. Yeah, it's
gonna say Eastern European can taste of Germans.

274
00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:37,359
So the Mosel River valley has a
ton of like slate in the soil.

275
00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:41,000
Okay, so the slaty or the
soil. And in fact, the

276
00:18:41,079 --> 00:18:45,000
Mosel River has a very similar soil
condition to the Finger Lakes, which is

277
00:18:45,039 --> 00:18:48,519
why we do really well with the
Finger Lights. So you get that kind

278
00:18:48,559 --> 00:18:52,920
of minerality in that wet stone and
that vibrance out of it from that soil

279
00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:56,279
condition. I so badly want to
be a wine snob. I'm not even

280
00:18:56,359 --> 00:19:00,720
kidding out. I really would love
to have like a wine cellar. Someday

281
00:19:00,839 --> 00:19:03,559
I got a wine I'll I'll tell
you what next time. Next time you

282
00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:07,279
have me on, I'll bring a
fifteen dollars bottle of wine. Yeah,

283
00:19:07,359 --> 00:19:11,279
and I'll bring one hundred and fifty
dollars bottle of wine. Don't waste that

284
00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:15,680
on us? Why not? Dude's
fun. You gotta be careful because this

285
00:19:15,799 --> 00:19:18,519
guy couldn't figure out. This guy, the mister Guinness over here couldn't figure

286
00:19:18,559 --> 00:19:22,599
out alcoholic Guinness versus non alcoholic guinness. I could do like a Guinness,

287
00:19:22,680 --> 00:19:25,799
though. I do like genness.
That's it. This is very good.

288
00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:29,279
This is very nice and light crisp. So what are you supposed to do?

289
00:19:29,279 --> 00:19:32,480
Because I already swallowed the thing I'm
watching you, you're supposed to almost

290
00:19:32,519 --> 00:19:33,599
slurp? Like, yeah, you
get a little out, you get a

291
00:19:33,599 --> 00:19:37,400
little oxygen into it, and then
it kind of opens up the it opens

292
00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:41,839
up the wine on your palate and
you kind of let it roll around and

293
00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:45,359
then you swallow it. What are
you tasting? Because I taste sweetness.

294
00:19:45,559 --> 00:19:48,799
There is sweetness almost like see how
it kind of just sits in the middle

295
00:19:48,799 --> 00:19:51,000
of your palate. Yeah, it's
refreshing and then towards the end it gives

296
00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:53,720
you a little kick. Yeah,
and that's the acidity. But this is

297
00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:59,200
this is a great reasling for It's
like clean slate. It's clean slate.

298
00:19:59,240 --> 00:20:03,519
It's like twelve or teen bucks on
the shelf. It's it's everywhere, like

299
00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:07,720
most stores carry it. And uh, it's it's just an easy go to,

300
00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:11,440
you know, grab and go kind
of wine. You don't have to

301
00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:12,599
think too much. You just sit
there and enjoy it. Now, if

302
00:20:12,599 --> 00:20:17,240
you were to describe the fruit,
what fruits are are you taking? Cause

303
00:20:17,240 --> 00:20:21,480
I almost and I don't know if
it's psychosomatic so to speak in my head

304
00:20:21,519 --> 00:20:23,319
because I said pear, I was
sort of taste a little pear, but

305
00:20:23,440 --> 00:20:30,440
it's that pear apple stone stone fruit
like peach, like peach, nectarine kind

306
00:20:30,440 --> 00:20:33,200
of. Yes, I did get
pea. You go, I'm on track,

307
00:20:33,279 --> 00:20:36,200
Yeah, I'm on. I tasted
that. I should be a sou

308
00:20:36,279 --> 00:20:41,759
le mon. There you go,
leme on. That's that is really really

309
00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:45,480
impressive, Like the way he can
pull that all out, you know,

310
00:20:45,599 --> 00:20:48,799
it was amazing. Yeah, I
like obviously wouldn't swallow too. Yeah,

311
00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:52,960
well that's me. That is what
I do. I drink in volume.

312
00:20:52,039 --> 00:20:56,200
That's so, do we need other
glasses then for the other ones use the

313
00:20:56,279 --> 00:20:59,680
same thing. Is it more cost
efficient to drinking volume? Uh no,

314
00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:02,920
no, no, it's like buying
a bulk but not really. It's the

315
00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:04,359
only reason I have a BJ's card
is because it's the only place they can

316
00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:08,119
buy a Guinness in the case.
I can only buy buy the case in

317
00:21:08,279 --> 00:21:11,839
BJS. I can't. I didn't
even know that was a thing. Yeah

318
00:21:11,039 --> 00:21:14,839
really, yeah, so I can
get to twenty four and I prefer the

319
00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:17,799
can if I'm not going to get
a tap totally. So I don't like

320
00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:21,200
the bottle and only it doesn't taste. Isn't that funny? We're talking about

321
00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:25,359
taste that tastes very different to me. Yes, I agree, hundred percent.

322
00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:27,680
So it's a different texture too.
Yes, they open up the can,

323
00:21:27,799 --> 00:21:30,480
it's got that little nitro canisty.
Yes it does. And they do

324
00:21:30,599 --> 00:21:33,200
something in the bottle that's similar,
but it just doesn't taste the same.

325
00:21:34,759 --> 00:21:40,000
So what now this is the rose
It is now rosees? Have they gained

326
00:21:40,039 --> 00:21:42,359
in popularity a lot? Okay?
Yes, why do you think that is?

327
00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:45,880
What what makes something all of a
sudden become somewhat trendy in the wine

328
00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:49,759
world. So that's that's kind of
a mixed bag. It's it's it either

329
00:21:49,839 --> 00:21:53,119
goes one way or the other.
So we had the movie Sideways that came

330
00:21:53,119 --> 00:21:56,160
out a whole bunch of years ago. Oh yeah, and there was the

331
00:21:56,240 --> 00:22:00,559
Sideways effect where everybody stopped drinking Merlau
because he hated Merlow in the movie and

332
00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:06,799
started drinking. So there was this
whole big like revolt against Merlin. You

333
00:22:07,319 --> 00:22:10,720
really that movie had that big an
influence huge Were you able to see it

334
00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:17,640
sort of economically impact? It really? Didn't It win Best Picture in like

335
00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:22,079
four I don't remember it was.
It was dominated because I remember the late

336
00:22:22,119 --> 00:22:25,200
Bill Klein was the movie critic at
the time at WHAM and I worked there,

337
00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:29,200
and I watched the movie. I'm
like, really, well, I

338
00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:33,400
did I understand why this was like
such a heralded movie, but I yeah,

339
00:22:33,759 --> 00:22:37,359
it was kind of sad. Yeah, but that's interesting to me that

340
00:22:37,559 --> 00:22:45,480
people would base it on You're not
well. They saw him as like the

341
00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:48,559
all knowing whine expert in the movie. It was a fictional movie, yes,

342
00:22:48,920 --> 00:22:49,720
And then he would go out there
and be like, oh, you

343
00:22:49,799 --> 00:22:52,400
know, we got to drink pin
and noir from this vineyard and from this

344
00:22:52,519 --> 00:22:56,000
site. And he would just wax
poetically about pen noir and then he would

345
00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:57,880
say, I don't care what we
do. I'm not drinking any damn or

346
00:22:57,920 --> 00:23:00,720
low. And that became a big
thing and people are like, no,

347
00:23:00,759 --> 00:23:03,920
I'm not going to drink the mor
low. So I was working I was

348
00:23:03,960 --> 00:23:07,599
working at market View at the time. Yeah, and they immediately, like

349
00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:14,319
Melow sales just started dipping that.
It boggles my mind because it goes back

350
00:23:14,359 --> 00:23:18,759
to you're almost drinking almost the way
we dress, you know what I mean,

351
00:23:18,839 --> 00:23:21,480
we do things because it's in style. Yes, right, and it's

352
00:23:21,559 --> 00:23:23,279
the trendy thing we wear, that
we wear our hair a certain way.

353
00:23:23,400 --> 00:23:27,680
All that stuff is dictated really by
social norms. I just figured you drank

354
00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:32,839
what you liked. No. No, I've never been really persuaded to go

355
00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:36,400
You've I mean I've had people say
you have to try. I've tried,

356
00:23:36,839 --> 00:23:40,920
and some of it I've stuck with
and some of it I just didn't.

357
00:23:41,119 --> 00:23:44,759
It's crazy, man. There's like
there's celebrities that all of a sudden show

358
00:23:44,839 --> 00:23:47,440
up on some TV show and drink
a bottle of something and the next thing

359
00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:49,200
you know, there's thirty customers asking
for it. Really, now, I

360
00:23:49,279 --> 00:23:55,200
mean, did you see that?
With tequila becoming very popular again, and

361
00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:59,319
you know Cosamigos. I saw the
Cosamegos truck today over at my wine and

362
00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:03,319
beer unloading and I see, you
know, it's Clooney and what's his name?

363
00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:07,119
Uh? Rich No, I was
gonna say, Richard Gear. It's

364
00:24:07,599 --> 00:24:11,079
the model's husband. Yeah, I
can't think of the name. But yeah,

365
00:24:11,319 --> 00:24:14,799
I mean that's a that's a solid
tequila and tequila and Medscow in general,

366
00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:18,559
the whole Gave portfolio has gone crazy
in the last three years, really,

367
00:24:18,759 --> 00:24:23,680
and it's nuts and it's it's the
demand has gone up so high that

368
00:24:25,079 --> 00:24:30,559
tequila distilleries can't keep up. Really. Now you do tastings of that as

369
00:24:30,599 --> 00:24:32,680
well, you can't. Yeah,
yeah, so you can do them all

370
00:24:32,720 --> 00:24:36,240
all the alcohol because I don't do
much with beer, Like i'm a I

371
00:24:36,400 --> 00:24:40,079
make beer. I do I'm me
and a buddy of mine. I don't

372
00:24:40,079 --> 00:24:44,519
make wine because I'd be way too
hard on myself. But it's a ship.

373
00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:47,519
Me and a buddy of mine.
We make beer and we hang out

374
00:24:47,599 --> 00:24:51,119
and and and that's cool. Spend
the day just making really cool stuff and

375
00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:52,960
we have a good time doing it. You know, I don't drink a

376
00:24:53,039 --> 00:24:57,720
ton of beer anymore, but when
I do, it's it's usually something cool

377
00:24:57,920 --> 00:25:02,960
like everyone's I I'm one of those
weird people that loves to get in my

378
00:25:03,079 --> 00:25:06,519
car and go for a drive just
to vent the head. So I'll just

379
00:25:06,599 --> 00:25:08,960
get in my car and say I'm
going to drive to Stove Vermont and go

380
00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:15,400
Wait. Yeah, I thought you
were saying, I'm thinking I'm going out

381
00:25:15,440 --> 00:25:18,480
a Kuka. No, no,
no, no, I'll Stove Vermont.

382
00:25:18,559 --> 00:25:19,920
Yeah, I'll say, all right, Friday, I'm going for a drive

383
00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:22,799
and I'll drive all the way to
Stove, Vermont, stop at like three

384
00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:26,119
breweries, pick up a bunch of
cool beer, and then drive home.

385
00:25:26,279 --> 00:25:29,519
What's the one from Vermont that I
had? It was a double bag?

386
00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:32,839
I p a. Was it the
Heady Topper, the Alchemist one? I

387
00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:34,119
don't know. There was one that
used to have a cow on it.

388
00:25:34,359 --> 00:25:37,599
That was the label I'm oh Lossons. Yeah, yeah, yeah it was.

389
00:25:38,039 --> 00:25:41,200
They had the Sip of Sunshine.
Yeah. There's a couple other ones.

390
00:25:41,319 --> 00:25:41,759
Yeah, yeah, I've been there. That's a cool place. I

391
00:25:41,799 --> 00:25:45,920
think they have like a double I
pad and they have a triple that they

392
00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:48,720
sell triple. That's right. And
somebody went up there and brought it back

393
00:25:48,839 --> 00:25:52,279
and then I'll knock you on your
ass. It's like fifteen and a half

394
00:25:52,319 --> 00:25:56,279
percent. It's a lot for it's
a lot, so all right. So

395
00:25:56,400 --> 00:25:59,799
this is the rose forever summer,
forever summer. So this is this is

396
00:25:59,839 --> 00:26:04,599
the entry level rose from a producer
called Marriboo and Provence. And the vineyard

397
00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:11,200
itself was started by a British couple
who loved rose and loved gin, and

398
00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:17,519
they the gentleman in the couple was
a banker in England and just got sick

399
00:26:17,559 --> 00:26:21,039
and tired of running a bank and
being in that business and said, you

400
00:26:21,119 --> 00:26:22,119
know what, I'm tied to make
you, buddy, honey, it's time

401
00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:26,680
to do something that it's time to
spend money by starting a winery exactly.

402
00:26:26,359 --> 00:26:30,960
So they they moved to France,
bought a property and planted a bunch of

403
00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:34,960
grapes and now they make rose and
they make a pink gin from the grapes.

404
00:26:36,039 --> 00:26:40,319
Pink gin it I have and it's
great. Really, yeah, okay,

405
00:26:40,519 --> 00:26:44,680
I'll bring it in. Yeah,
that's interesting, it's uh forever summer.

406
00:26:45,079 --> 00:26:49,039
All right, here we go right
now, this one I'm smelling.

407
00:26:52,759 --> 00:26:57,680
It definitely smells different, Yes it
does. I'm afraid to say, Clai

408
00:26:57,680 --> 00:27:03,119
like I'd be afraid. I'm super
was this harvested near a nuclear plant?

409
00:27:03,799 --> 00:27:08,079
That it's a bunch ofm in France? We need to go in nuclear bill?

410
00:27:08,119 --> 00:27:12,720
It's clean? Well, that's nice. Yeah, so this is a

411
00:27:12,759 --> 00:27:17,440
bone dry rose, so oh yeah, very dry. Yeah, I could

412
00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:22,720
taste the bone. Don't say that. That's very good. Yeah. I

413
00:27:22,839 --> 00:27:25,720
like this one a lot. And
again, this is like ten twelve bucks

414
00:27:25,759 --> 00:27:29,759
on the shelf, you know,
it's it's super affordable. And to come

415
00:27:29,839 --> 00:27:36,160
from Provence and be that affordable is
unique because generally you're looking somewhere between fifteen

416
00:27:36,160 --> 00:27:38,880
and twenty bucks to start in Provence. Okay, but this is their kind

417
00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:42,720
of entry level. It's it's not
necessarily classified as Provence, which is how

418
00:27:42,759 --> 00:27:48,200
they can get away selling it cheaper. But it's mostly a grape called grenache,

419
00:27:48,079 --> 00:27:52,559
and it's nice, it's light,
it's got it's got a little bit.

420
00:27:52,640 --> 00:27:56,359
Yeah, and it does have that
summer feel to it. It does,

421
00:27:56,519 --> 00:28:02,000
right, that nice kickback almost like
you're along lake somewhere and just kicking

422
00:28:02,079 --> 00:28:07,160
backtoon boat where you want to sit
on a dock with hat on, sunglasses

423
00:28:07,200 --> 00:28:11,839
and just drink this. Yes,
yes, the case and the wife's happy,

424
00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:12,720
and the wife's happy. Yeah,
that's right. Yes, there you

425
00:28:12,759 --> 00:28:18,000
go. That's the important thing.
That's really good. Wow, forever summer.

426
00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:22,920
They have a couple other ones.
There's one that's called pure, which

427
00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:27,759
is great. That's a little price
step up. And that one's from actually

428
00:28:27,799 --> 00:28:33,599
a region called x in Provence,
which is just west of the main province.

429
00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:37,000
So when you took the test and
they didn't tell you you just had,

430
00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:41,279
you'd be able to identify where this
was from pretty much the region and

431
00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:42,720
all that. That was the goal, right, that was the goal.

432
00:28:42,920 --> 00:28:48,480
So the key is you don't have
to be one hundred percent correct, because

433
00:28:48,480 --> 00:28:52,279
when you're writing out all your answers, you have to justify why you think

434
00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:56,880
that's the case. So you identify
the grape, you say what you think

435
00:28:56,920 --> 00:29:00,279
it is. You have to show
work, have to show your work.

436
00:29:00,759 --> 00:29:06,200
So you say, all right,
this has bits of strawberry on the nose,

437
00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:08,519
so that leads me to believe that
the grape is grenage. There's a

438
00:29:08,640 --> 00:29:14,480
touch of earthiness on the finish with
lent makes me think old world. I'm

439
00:29:14,519 --> 00:29:18,960
gonna say Provence rose. So you
kind of you break down what you think

440
00:29:19,039 --> 00:29:22,119
it's not. So if you tase
this and you're like, okay, well

441
00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:26,759
that's definitely not a Pino noir rose
because of the flavor profile, because of

442
00:29:26,799 --> 00:29:33,119
the color, it's not an Italian
rose from you know, Tuscany. And

443
00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:34,880
then you go through and you just
kind of narrow it down what it could

444
00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:38,160
possibly be. So it ends up
being like a fun kind of game you

445
00:29:38,279 --> 00:29:42,240
play in your brain with with with
wines. And most of the time we're

446
00:29:42,319 --> 00:29:45,640
not right. Like most of the
time, even psalms that have been doing

447
00:29:45,720 --> 00:29:48,400
it for longer than me, we
don't get it right, you know,

448
00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:56,160
and but we always make interesting arguments
as to what we think it is.

449
00:29:56,319 --> 00:29:59,799
Gotcha. So I just got lucky. I got I nailed three out of

450
00:29:59,839 --> 00:30:02,960
the five of them for the test
because I knew immediately one of them was

451
00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:07,240
a New Zealand sauvignon blanc, which
is kind of unmistakable. It smells like

452
00:30:07,240 --> 00:30:11,880
pineapple and grapefruit, and it's one
of those things that if it's got a

453
00:30:11,960 --> 00:30:17,680
cidity, it's got ripping. It
smells like it smells like pineapple and grapefruit.

454
00:30:18,160 --> 00:30:19,559
That you know it's going to be
that. And then there was another

455
00:30:19,640 --> 00:30:23,880
one that was a god I think
it was an all s all sauce gavertz

456
00:30:23,920 --> 00:30:29,000
demeanor, which is also an unmistakable
type of flavor profiles. Yeah, my

457
00:30:29,160 --> 00:30:33,240
wife loves that. Okay, something
to keep in mind. The wine.

458
00:30:33,359 --> 00:30:37,200
Yeah, there we go. Yeah, because well it's got the German name

459
00:30:37,279 --> 00:30:41,599
to it, you know, and
it's it's you know, it's forever summer

460
00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:44,319
though. Man, I would I
might find a case of that for the

461
00:30:44,359 --> 00:30:48,079
summertime, sitting down on the deck, and that is really like perfect for

462
00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:51,119
them. Well when we're when we're
done here, I'll leave these three with

463
00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:53,079
you guys. You can take them
home. You don't have to do that.

464
00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:59,880
But my pleasure, my pleasure.
But with with me showing customers wines

465
00:30:59,880 --> 00:31:02,720
a week, I end up with
a bag full of open bottles of wine

466
00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:06,880
anyway, So the last thing I
need to do is have more open all

467
00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:11,200
right. And then lastly we're going
to Oregon. So we had Germany and

468
00:31:11,240 --> 00:31:15,440
then France and now we're going to
Oregon. All right. Now, Oregon

469
00:31:15,519 --> 00:31:19,880
seems to be is the Northwest becoming
more popular. I don't know the answer.

470
00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:25,839
It is for noirs, specifically an
Oregon for pino noirs. Washington State

471
00:31:25,920 --> 00:31:30,559
does really well with cab and sarah. Oh yeah, okay, so weird,

472
00:31:32,119 --> 00:31:36,559
weird random wine fact about Washington.
The Columbia River Valley, where a

473
00:31:36,599 --> 00:31:41,400
lot of these grapes are planted,
is actually a desert, which is really

474
00:31:41,480 --> 00:31:44,160
bizarre to say about Washington State because
most people think it's you know, it's

475
00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:48,240
the Evergreen what. Yeah, but
where the where the Russian were? Where

476
00:31:48,319 --> 00:31:53,000
the Columbia Valley is? It sits
just opposite the Cascade Mountain range, so

477
00:31:53,079 --> 00:31:59,680
the clouds come in off the ocean
and the Cascades operate as this like rain

478
00:31:59,799 --> 00:32:04,039
chef. So the Columbia River Valley
only averages about six inches of rain a

479
00:32:04,200 --> 00:32:07,759
year. Wow, And it allows
them. That allows the winemakers to dry

480
00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:12,160
farm the vineyards and if they need
to irrigate, they can irrigate right out

481
00:32:12,160 --> 00:32:15,119
of the Columbia River, so they
can control exactly how much moisture all their

482
00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:22,640
vines get. That's really interesting because
I think who's the former quarterback with the

483
00:32:22,799 --> 00:32:27,160
Patriots and the build I think Bledsoe
has a winery in Washington. He does.

484
00:32:27,559 --> 00:32:30,839
It's huge. It's expensive. Yes, it's like you got to be

485
00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:32,839
a member to like buy his wine. I mean good, just buy it.

486
00:32:34,599 --> 00:32:36,680
It is good. But it's like
fifty bucks a bottle. Okay,

487
00:32:36,799 --> 00:32:38,960
yeah, and you got to join
the club. I've looked into it.

488
00:32:39,240 --> 00:32:43,279
You have to join his club.
Yeah. Yeah, it's so exclusive.

489
00:32:43,359 --> 00:32:45,559
They've really made it like because wine. This is what I love about wine.

490
00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:50,200
It becomes exclusive and I do.
I do. I'm sorry, I

491
00:32:50,359 --> 00:32:53,039
appreciate that. That's important. I
do. I appreciate it. There's something

492
00:32:53,079 --> 00:32:59,200
about it because there's an appreciation.
You're not buying something cheap and you're paying

493
00:32:59,319 --> 00:33:02,160
for it's almost an experience in the
bottle. We really are, we really

494
00:33:02,200 --> 00:33:07,799
are. So the cool thing about
Cloudline Pinot here is that it's made by

495
00:33:07,960 --> 00:33:13,319
the Joseph drew and wine family out
of France. So years ago Joseph drew

496
00:33:13,400 --> 00:33:17,559
In was this like icon in Burgundy
making amazing Burgundy wines, and his daughter

497
00:33:17,759 --> 00:33:22,160
started taking over the prog the business
and said, you know, we have

498
00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:29,079
very similar climate patterns and soil condition
that they do in Oregon. Why don't

499
00:33:29,119 --> 00:33:31,559
we plant some vineyards there and see
if we can make as beautiful a pino

500
00:33:31,599 --> 00:33:36,440
noires as we do here in Burgundy. So she came over purchased this property

501
00:33:36,599 --> 00:33:43,160
in the early nineties called Domain Druen
and made it into this world class wine

502
00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:46,119
making facility out in Oregon. Amazing. And this is their kind of entry

503
00:33:46,240 --> 00:33:50,200
level version of the Domain dru And
so Domain drew And now is this also,

504
00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:53,160
forgive me where is this? Is
this in that region you talked about

505
00:33:53,160 --> 00:33:57,759
it? So this is Willamette Valley, which is in the almost the dead

506
00:33:57,839 --> 00:34:02,000
center of the state and Oregon,
and the Wilammett Valley is really kind of

507
00:34:02,079 --> 00:34:07,239
the headquarters of pino in on the
west coast, and they make wines that

508
00:34:07,320 --> 00:34:12,079
are very very similar in style to
Burgundy because of the soil conditions, because

509
00:34:12,079 --> 00:34:15,280
of the the climate, because of
the diurnal shifts, so that in the

510
00:34:15,360 --> 00:34:19,599
temperature, so it'll be warmer during
the day and then cold at night.

511
00:34:19,719 --> 00:34:22,400
So when you do that, it
allows the grapes to kind of shut down

512
00:34:22,480 --> 00:34:27,119
at nighttime and then wake up during
the day, and it makes the vines

513
00:34:27,159 --> 00:34:30,920
produce a little bit more rich fruit. Wow, so very cool stuff.

514
00:34:30,000 --> 00:34:35,400
Yeah, all right, let's see
this is like well the spell the scent

515
00:34:35,760 --> 00:34:40,159
immediately hits you more than the first
two. Is that is that like a

516
00:34:40,280 --> 00:34:44,360
rule of thumb with the darker winds
or doesn't matter that the darker wines like

517
00:34:44,440 --> 00:34:49,320
the scent is more potent, not
necessarily like it. It really depends on

518
00:34:49,400 --> 00:34:52,599
what it is. This just happens
to be pino happens to be a very

519
00:34:52,679 --> 00:34:57,239
aromatic wine with this particular one you
get when you smell it, it gets

520
00:34:57,239 --> 00:35:00,280
a little bit of that kind of
earthy funk. Oh yeah, which I

521
00:35:00,400 --> 00:35:05,159
really really dig It's almost like two
we call that. The wine geeks they

522
00:35:05,239 --> 00:35:07,760
call that forest floor. It almost
it almost smells like you're walking through a

523
00:35:07,840 --> 00:35:12,159
forest, like rustling dry pine needles. Oh I, I could sense that.

524
00:35:14,400 --> 00:35:21,199
Seriously, that is really nice,
how smooth. Sometimes pino has a

525
00:35:21,519 --> 00:35:24,679
more of a after bite like so
when it does, it's not supposed to

526
00:35:25,119 --> 00:35:29,960
Okay, when it does, no, no, no, not at all,

527
00:35:30,199 --> 00:35:34,000
it just means that they're blending something
else into the pena. So in

528
00:35:34,320 --> 00:35:37,400
the United States, if it says
pino noir on the label, yeah,

529
00:35:37,039 --> 00:35:42,440
legally it only has to be seventy
five percent noir. And pino noir is

530
00:35:42,519 --> 00:35:46,119
a very finicky grape and very difficult
to grow. So a lot of producers

531
00:35:46,199 --> 00:35:50,559
that make like tons of pino noir, and I don't want to name names

532
00:35:50,599 --> 00:35:53,639
out there, but some mass producers
in California, YE blend petite Sarah and

533
00:35:53,760 --> 00:35:59,079
Sarah to their pino noir, which
makes it much darker colored than this.

534
00:35:59,480 --> 00:36:00,920
This is what it's a post I
look like because this almost yeah, this

535
00:36:01,679 --> 00:36:05,440
is opaque. Yeah you can look
through it. Yeah you should be able.

536
00:36:05,519 --> 00:36:07,599
You should be able to read through
pino noir. Okay, yeah you

537
00:36:07,679 --> 00:36:10,719
can. I didn't know that that. See, this is the stuff I

538
00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:14,760
want to know. There's only a
few I don't know where I'm going to

539
00:36:14,840 --> 00:36:16,079
use this knowledge, but I do. I love it just for the sake

540
00:36:16,119 --> 00:36:20,159
of knowing it. And that's one
of the great things about wine. The

541
00:36:20,519 --> 00:36:23,599
more you learn about wine, the
more you realize that you don't know anything.

542
00:36:23,880 --> 00:36:27,679
Yeah, Like you can study.
I've been studying for twenty years,

543
00:36:27,800 --> 00:36:30,119
and every single day I'm like,
Oh, I didn't know that. There's

544
00:36:30,320 --> 00:36:34,079
just new stuff to learn every single
day. Is there? Now that we've

545
00:36:34,119 --> 00:36:36,639
tasted these, go ahead, Danny, because you're are you going to ask

546
00:36:36,679 --> 00:36:38,079
about this wine? Well? I
was going to ask about like you've just

547
00:36:38,159 --> 00:36:43,440
been doing this for twenty years.
But my question was more about aerating the

548
00:36:43,519 --> 00:36:45,320
wine. Right, Like, my
wife and I took a wine making class

549
00:36:45,360 --> 00:36:47,119
about a year ago, so I
thought, we're gonna be able to stop

550
00:36:47,159 --> 00:36:51,920
grapes and stuff, and no,
that's not what happened. They basically assign

551
00:36:51,960 --> 00:36:53,480
a kit, you pick the ten
wines as a class, and those are

552
00:36:53,519 --> 00:36:55,639
the wines you get. Did you
do it over there? I did it

553
00:36:57,039 --> 00:37:00,280
someplace in gates. I think wine
by design? I think, oh yeah,

554
00:37:00,440 --> 00:37:02,239
so. But the longest short of
it they tried. They sold us

555
00:37:02,320 --> 00:37:07,840
these air raiders right where they say
it'll age the wine five years. That's

556
00:37:07,840 --> 00:37:09,639
why I want to ask. That's
why I wanted to ask. It'll age

557
00:37:09,639 --> 00:37:14,159
supposedly age the wine five years for
every time you dip it into this air

558
00:37:14,280 --> 00:37:15,920
raider and dip it back. That's
right, I thought. I knew it.

559
00:37:16,159 --> 00:37:20,800
Are the air raiders even, I
mean they're They were there a gimmick

560
00:37:20,920 --> 00:37:23,239
like honestly, if you if you
get a decanter, you pour the wine

561
00:37:23,280 --> 00:37:25,360
and let it sit for ten minutes, it does the exact same thing,

562
00:37:25,480 --> 00:37:29,400
right, So I talked myself with
the oh yeah, this definitely tastes ten

563
00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:31,880
minutes ten years older than it did
before. This is I would say,

564
00:37:32,039 --> 00:37:37,639
suggestion power suggestion. Of course.
I will say this though, Oxygenating a

565
00:37:37,679 --> 00:37:40,480
wine definitely has an impact. Like
when you opened last week, I went

566
00:37:40,519 --> 00:37:45,800
out to dinner with a couple of
buddies of mine and it was because me

567
00:37:45,880 --> 00:37:47,679
and my one buddy had we had
come in first and second in our fantasy

568
00:37:47,719 --> 00:37:52,079
football league. Okay, so we
just decided we'll just split the winnings and

569
00:37:52,119 --> 00:37:53,800
take everybody out to a nice dinner
Atlanto. Oh cool, So we went

570
00:37:53,880 --> 00:37:59,000
to we went to dinner at Lento. I brought a nineteen eighty four bottle

571
00:37:59,079 --> 00:38:02,800
of red. It was actually from
Lebanon. Wow, and uh so I

572
00:38:02,880 --> 00:38:07,079
brought this. I brought this?
Hell do you find that? So there's

573
00:38:07,119 --> 00:38:10,239
a there's a the super geekiest wine
in the world is Chateau Mousar from Lebanon.

574
00:38:10,719 --> 00:38:15,559
It's a guy that studied in France
how to make wine and makes these

575
00:38:15,920 --> 00:38:19,719
beautiful Bordeaux style wines in Lebanon.
Really, right, I do Like now

576
00:38:19,760 --> 00:38:22,719
with the cedars of letter of Lebanon, does that impact the wine at all?

577
00:38:23,159 --> 00:38:27,920
You never know? Mind, because
like Lebanon's known for cedar trees it

578
00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:30,000
is, okay, So that's why
I was asking, well, I did

579
00:38:30,079 --> 00:38:30,960
I know that? Yeah, So
I was wondering if there was like a

580
00:38:31,039 --> 00:38:36,920
hint of cedar. I mean,
it depends what. If you're using certain

581
00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:38,280
oak, you'll definitely get some cedar. I mean, I've never looked at

582
00:38:39,159 --> 00:38:43,159
what is it nineteen maybe four?
So you're talking to wine. It's forty

583
00:38:43,239 --> 00:38:45,960
years forty years old? Yeah,
yeah, So you put it in a

584
00:38:45,119 --> 00:38:49,320
decanter and let it open up,
and when you first pour it, it's

585
00:38:49,559 --> 00:38:52,039
really kind of they call it.
They say the wine is tight, so

586
00:38:52,119 --> 00:38:53,880
it means none of the flavors are
there. All you're tasting is the component.

587
00:38:53,920 --> 00:38:57,880
So all you're getting is tannin and
acid, okay. And then as

588
00:38:58,119 --> 00:39:00,679
the bottle as it sits there in
the decanter, it slowly opens up and

589
00:39:00,760 --> 00:39:04,960
opens up, and then the fruit
flavors start coming out and the wine just

590
00:39:05,039 --> 00:39:07,719
kind of evolves in the glass.
And then if you let it sit for

591
00:39:07,800 --> 00:39:10,360
too long, it just dies because
now it's exposed to oxygen after not being

592
00:39:10,440 --> 00:39:15,039
exposed to oxygen for forty years.
So the older the wine is, the

593
00:39:15,199 --> 00:39:19,320
shorter it's lifetime when it's opened.
I didn't know that drink it. Now,

594
00:39:19,440 --> 00:39:22,599
what is the oldest wine you've ever
tasted? Late twenties? Really?

595
00:39:22,880 --> 00:39:28,519
Yeah, wow, late twenties and
how I was good? I was awesome

596
00:39:28,559 --> 00:39:32,440
about it. Twenty minute span and
that was dead. Yeah. So do

597
00:39:32,559 --> 00:39:37,760
you have a favorite? That's is
that almost like asking you who your favorite

598
00:39:37,800 --> 00:39:43,119
kid is? It is in a
way, okay, but it really it

599
00:39:43,199 --> 00:39:45,000
really I see, I only got
one kid, so that's I have a

600
00:39:45,039 --> 00:39:49,559
favorite nephew and niece. I can
tell you. It really defends what I'm

601
00:39:49,599 --> 00:39:52,320
in the mood for. Like,
my favorite region in the world is the

602
00:39:52,400 --> 00:39:53,840
Rhone Valley of France, just because
if I want to drink white, I

603
00:39:53,920 --> 00:39:57,480
drink white. If I want red, they've got sparkling, They've got rose,

604
00:39:57,599 --> 00:40:00,280
They've got everything I could possibly want
in that one region. And it's

605
00:40:00,320 --> 00:40:05,199
all great. But like I do
have a wine cellar then I collect stuff,

606
00:40:05,280 --> 00:40:08,480
and most of my cellar is either
Burgundy or German reestling. Really yeah,

607
00:40:08,639 --> 00:40:12,800
oh okay, so those are my
those are my two sweet spots,

608
00:40:12,840 --> 00:40:15,559
and both because they age really really
well. So I've got I've got thirty

609
00:40:15,599 --> 00:40:20,519
forty year old bottles of reestling that
age beautifully really yeah, yeah, I've

610
00:40:20,559 --> 00:40:23,000
never recently was almost too sweet for
my palette a little bit, but I

611
00:40:23,199 --> 00:40:25,880
don't know if I've had good reasling
or bad recently. And some of the

612
00:40:25,960 --> 00:40:29,960
ice wines very sweet. Some of
the ice wines are very sweet. Yeah,

613
00:40:30,119 --> 00:40:34,280
that's not always my favorite, so
I always stuck more to cabs or

614
00:40:34,880 --> 00:40:37,559
Tuscans. Love the Tuscan. Tuscan
wines are great, yeah, like if

615
00:40:37,599 --> 00:40:40,400
you can really go deep. But
I but that's about that. There's what

616
00:40:40,519 --> 00:40:45,800
it ends for me. And what's
that Australian wine with the kangaroo on it?

617
00:40:45,880 --> 00:40:50,079
That's really jellle tale. Yeah,
it's cheap and that's hugely what I

618
00:40:50,519 --> 00:40:53,639
bought. I got the jumbo bottle. Well then I yes, you could

619
00:40:53,639 --> 00:40:57,559
buy the jumbo bottle for like ten
bucks. Yeah, that's right, and

620
00:40:57,639 --> 00:41:02,480
it's not great, it's just exactly
but I'm I'd like buying, like if

621
00:41:02,519 --> 00:41:07,119
you can buy the case sometimes sure, and then they have you know,

622
00:41:07,199 --> 00:41:09,159
if you find a wine you really
like, that's always a favorite of mine.

623
00:41:09,400 --> 00:41:14,480
This has been amazing. Do you
teach classes? Could you hire you?

624
00:41:14,760 --> 00:41:19,119
Sure? Like? Could Let's say
somebody wanted to have you know,

625
00:41:19,199 --> 00:41:22,519
I think they do wine and art? Do they do wine and painting somewhere.

626
00:41:22,719 --> 00:41:24,119
I want to say somebody wanted to
have in their house like a wine

627
00:41:24,159 --> 00:41:27,599
tasting. Yeah. Absolutely, yeah, I think that's a great idea.

628
00:41:28,079 --> 00:41:30,719
How do people find you through LinkedIn
or something? Yeah, well you can

629
00:41:30,760 --> 00:41:34,840
find me through LinkedIn. You can
send me an email, uh jlink one

630
00:41:34,880 --> 00:41:38,280
one three at gmail dot com.
Just put wine tasting in the in the

631
00:41:38,400 --> 00:41:43,480
subject line and and well, I
think that would be a really cool fun

632
00:41:43,559 --> 00:41:45,400
thing, especially as the weather's warming
up, you know, in the next

633
00:41:45,440 --> 00:41:49,480
couple of weeks, and and what
a cool thing that that forever summer is

634
00:41:49,719 --> 00:41:52,360
perfect for something. And that pino
noir. Dude, I've never had a

635
00:41:52,400 --> 00:41:55,360
pino noir that didn't kind of bite
me in the end. I actually I

636
00:41:55,400 --> 00:42:00,519
actually sell this to one of one
of my customers is the Naples Tael down

637
00:42:00,559 --> 00:42:05,159
and down in Naples, and they
have this great little restaurant in the bottom

638
00:42:05,199 --> 00:42:08,920
floor and they have like a patio
outside there and in the summertime they just

639
00:42:09,000 --> 00:42:12,519
crush with this and just yeah,
people just hang out in the patio and

640
00:42:12,599 --> 00:42:15,000
drink rose. Yeah, it's great. Cool, So that's fun. Can

641
00:42:15,039 --> 00:42:17,000
I ask you, like, how
is how is brandy made from wine?

642
00:42:17,920 --> 00:42:23,480
So much in the same way that
whiskey is basically just distilled beer. Yes,

643
00:42:24,440 --> 00:42:28,639
brandy is basically just distilled wine.
Okay, so same. It goes

644
00:42:28,639 --> 00:42:30,920
through the distillation process. They boil
it, they cook it, they take

645
00:42:30,960 --> 00:42:36,079
all the the alcohol that evaporates out
of it. It goes through the cooling

646
00:42:36,159 --> 00:42:39,280
coils that recondenses into alcohol, and
then they just agent. Oh I see,

647
00:42:39,360 --> 00:42:44,400
okay, so it's basically the residue
of the wine after they boil it.

648
00:42:45,360 --> 00:42:47,880
Okay. Yeah, So you start
with when you make any distilled product,

649
00:42:47,960 --> 00:42:52,719
you start with a base fermented product, so tequila. In order to

650
00:42:52,760 --> 00:42:57,920
make tequila, you take your agave. They take the center of the agave,

651
00:42:58,760 --> 00:43:01,760
they slice it, they cook it, and that brings out all of

652
00:43:01,840 --> 00:43:05,960
the sweetness and the sugars. Then
they press it, so you've got all

653
00:43:06,000 --> 00:43:09,639
that sugary juice from the agave.
Then they ferment it into basically an agave

654
00:43:09,840 --> 00:43:15,000
beer called polke, and then they
take that pulke and distill it and they

655
00:43:15,079 --> 00:43:16,800
run it through the still and then
you end up with tequila. Wow,

656
00:43:17,159 --> 00:43:20,960
that's the healthiest thing you could drink
too. I hear that about tequila,

657
00:43:20,960 --> 00:43:23,840
and it's an up or not a
right, Tequila is kind of my superpower.

658
00:43:23,960 --> 00:43:29,599
Like I'm I'll drink three beers and
be hammered. Yes, I can

659
00:43:29,719 --> 00:43:32,159
drink tequila all night and be perfectly
fine. Yeah, I'm getting to that

660
00:43:32,519 --> 00:43:36,320
point in my life where I'm starting
to appreciate it. I always feel like

661
00:43:36,360 --> 00:43:42,199
I'm a late bloomer to the party
late, but I have gaining an appreciation

662
00:43:42,360 --> 00:43:45,920
for these things and this has been
great. Thank you so much. Yeah,

663
00:43:45,000 --> 00:43:47,440
fantastic any time, man, my
pleasure. I'm about the worm in

664
00:43:47,480 --> 00:43:51,639
the tequila. Where's that coming?
That's a message and you don't want to

665
00:43:51,639 --> 00:43:52,400
buy the one with the worms?
Okay, all right, good, all

666
00:43:52,480 --> 00:43:55,280
right. Although if you go down
to Mexico, there's a couple of tequila

667
00:43:55,320 --> 00:43:59,320
shops that I went to, and
I was in Guadalajara, and they had

668
00:43:59,760 --> 00:44:02,880
like a bottle with a scorpion in
it and spider in it, and one

669
00:44:02,920 --> 00:44:06,440
with a snake. I remember seeing
that too in it, but I thought

670
00:44:06,440 --> 00:44:08,159
I saw that I definitely wasn't in
Guadala. Horror when I saw that.

671
00:44:08,599 --> 00:44:16,599
The uh, do you base your
vacations in travel on wine regions at all?

672
00:44:16,719 --> 00:44:21,119
Or no? It depends. So
one of the perks of the job

673
00:44:22,280 --> 00:44:27,039
is that in wholesale they offer incentives. If you sell enough of this,

674
00:44:27,360 --> 00:44:30,000
We're gonna send you on a trip
someplace. Yeah, and it benefits the

675
00:44:30,039 --> 00:44:34,599
wholesaler in the end because now you
can go and say, dude, I

676
00:44:34,800 --> 00:44:38,000
was at this winery and it's killer. You should buy some. But at

677
00:44:38,039 --> 00:44:42,840
the same time, it gives us
all new education and kind of new excitement

678
00:44:42,840 --> 00:44:45,079
about the territory. So that's one
of the things I've gotten to do in

679
00:44:45,159 --> 00:44:49,280
the past, you know, ten
years in this business. Is I've been

680
00:44:49,320 --> 00:44:52,800
to Portugal, I've been to Spain, I've been to Italy. Last year,

681
00:44:52,800 --> 00:44:54,840
I spent two weeks in Italy.
I was in South America and Chile

682
00:44:54,960 --> 00:45:00,360
and Argentina of wine regions just like
cool places and you get to meet really

683
00:45:00,400 --> 00:45:05,599
cool people and eat great food and
drink great wine. All this from working

684
00:45:05,679 --> 00:45:08,679
at the Genesee Valley Club and deciding
that this is the way I'd rather go

685
00:45:08,920 --> 00:45:13,039
than be inte justice and be a
cop. Yeah, that's that's really interesting.

686
00:45:13,239 --> 00:45:15,119
All right, We'll take a moment, feel free to hang out.

687
00:45:15,400 --> 00:45:19,800
Speaking of cops, I was down
at the courthouse. I was part of

688
00:45:19,840 --> 00:45:24,360
the Sheriff's podcast today and then went
with my son over to the courthouse and

689
00:45:24,440 --> 00:45:30,039
did our old bit what you're doing
at the cloud now? Then audio didn't

690
00:45:30,039 --> 00:45:32,559
really come out that well. Okay, so I've got two that kind of

691
00:45:32,639 --> 00:45:36,639
worked, and I will we will
play those and let you know. But

692
00:45:36,679 --> 00:45:39,920
then I have a complaint. I
have a complaint about down there. Okay,

693
00:45:40,280 --> 00:45:43,239
yeah, all right, so okay, cool, all right, we'll

694
00:45:43,239 --> 00:45:45,079
get to that next. But first, This Sunday, March thirty first is

right? Neil Diamond wrote the song
mag Me Fucket. I will say a

729
00:48:14,639 --> 00:48:17,480
wine buzz is a happy buzz for
me. Yeah, I like a wall.

730
00:48:17,840 --> 00:48:20,960
I still had to muto over there
because I have a wine buzz.

731
00:48:22,000 --> 00:48:27,280
Phil's good. Yeah. So I
grew up around wine. My grandfather used

732
00:48:27,280 --> 00:48:30,519
to grow grapes and then make his
own wine. That peano was so good.

733
00:48:30,880 --> 00:48:36,199
And what happened is he he would
make the wine, and then his

734
00:48:36,320 --> 00:48:37,519
nephews the only time they would come
and see him is when they wanted to

735
00:48:37,559 --> 00:48:40,639
bottle wine and get pissed off about
it. Was it because that wine was

736
00:48:40,679 --> 00:48:45,079
just for his consumption? Is a
good wine? I wouldn't know I was

737
00:48:45,079 --> 00:48:47,199
a kid. Yeah, my father
had ray fooled. One year, he

738
00:48:47,280 --> 00:48:52,320
decided to go down the road to
the to the to the winery called Willow

739
00:48:52,360 --> 00:48:54,039
Creek, and he bought a bottle
of this stuff which I later bought a

740
00:48:54,079 --> 00:48:59,199
couple of years ago, called Rambo
Red. And he convinced the family that

741
00:48:59,280 --> 00:49:02,400
he found a bob of Grandpa's old
wine and that they all got to try

742
00:49:02,440 --> 00:49:06,599
it. It's amazing for an excuse
to have a Fourth of July party,

743
00:49:07,039 --> 00:49:08,920
These people been, Oh my gosh, this why it's twenty years that's so

744
00:49:09,039 --> 00:49:13,280
amazing. My grandfather had passed away
in eighty eight. Now we're in the

745
00:49:13,360 --> 00:49:16,119
year two thousand and Also, my
father's got everybody convinced that he found this

746
00:49:16,239 --> 00:49:21,760
barrel of my grandfather's wine and they're
all trinking it thinking it's my grandfather's and

747
00:49:21,840 --> 00:49:23,159
he and after he died, my
mother goes, oh, by the way,

748
00:49:23,199 --> 00:49:25,559
your father wanted me to tell you
after he died. Yeah, that

749
00:49:25,679 --> 00:49:30,280
wine party. Yeah, he bought
it from Willow Creek and he had everybody

750
00:49:30,360 --> 00:49:32,440
fooled. Nobody knows anything. I'm
like, wow, nobody does know anything

751
00:49:32,480 --> 00:49:36,800
when it comes to that. But
man John Link knew his stuff. That

752
00:49:36,960 --> 00:49:40,119
was really really love. Yeah,
he was great. Uh So I got

753
00:49:40,239 --> 00:49:45,199
invited to go down and I've spent
a lot of time with Sheriff Baxter recently.

754
00:49:45,440 --> 00:49:46,960
Jameis and I were with him the
other day having a little bit of

755
00:49:47,000 --> 00:49:50,880
fun. He had come in a
couple of weeks ago when we dropped the

756
00:49:50,920 --> 00:49:55,840
podcast yesterday or two days ago.
And then I get a call from Deputy

757
00:49:55,960 --> 00:50:00,559
Hurley who's been in here, and
Deputy Hurley said, Hey, filling in

758
00:50:00,800 --> 00:50:05,400
for Sheriff Baxter on this podcast,
do you mind coming down? And it

759
00:50:05,480 --> 00:50:09,559
had to do it was centered around
autism and autism up and which I told

760
00:50:09,679 --> 00:50:14,719
Autism Up I would MC their gala
and uh, I thought it was May

761
00:50:14,800 --> 00:50:16,760
fourth and it's not. It's May
eleventh and that's the same day as my

762
00:50:17,039 --> 00:50:22,320
son's college graduation. So I can't. I can't do it, but helping

763
00:50:22,360 --> 00:50:24,960
them get some other things together.
So I went down with Jamison and I

764
00:50:25,000 --> 00:50:29,440
thought, while we're there, why
don't we bring up the old bit,

765
00:50:29,599 --> 00:50:32,519
Danny, Yes, the old bit
what you're doing at the court house.

766
00:50:32,519 --> 00:50:35,679
You know what's funny, it's like, have you done this bit since I

767
00:50:35,800 --> 00:50:37,719
did it back? No? So
like, wow, then I had done

768
00:50:37,760 --> 00:50:43,559
We're talking about ten years? Yeah, oh at least and because sometimes I

769
00:50:43,639 --> 00:50:45,559
did it but mostly you did it. Yeah. So Jamison was like really

770
00:50:45,639 --> 00:50:50,960
nervous. So we tried it with
our Lavalier mics, and the Lavalier mic

771
00:50:51,400 --> 00:50:54,480
picks us up. They're wonderful,
but they're not good pick up. Yeah.

772
00:50:54,559 --> 00:50:58,599
So what I'm thinking is I like
the quality of the Lavaler mic.

773
00:50:58,679 --> 00:51:00,760
What I may do is almost put
it like on a boom, like a

774
00:51:00,840 --> 00:51:05,280
long just a stick and just kind
of hanging out like Bob Barker's are at

775
00:51:05,320 --> 00:51:07,840
the Price right, Yes, because
that's what it looks like. Yes,

776
00:51:07,519 --> 00:51:10,639
So that I may do that.
But we went down there and uh,

777
00:51:10,920 --> 00:51:16,280
here's our first contestant. And it
was Jamison wanted to host this, and

778
00:51:16,360 --> 00:51:20,119
I said, we got to get
five questions. I think I was lucky

779
00:51:20,119 --> 00:51:24,199
if I got three. But here
is our first person on what you're doing

780
00:51:24,480 --> 00:51:30,159
at the courthouse pizzo. Okay,
what's your favorite hot sauce? What's your

781
00:51:30,199 --> 00:51:34,440
favorite hot sauce? He says.
And the guy, because it's a little

782
00:51:34,440 --> 00:51:37,239
echob we where we were, and
we again we have the right mic says

783
00:51:37,719 --> 00:51:44,599
yeah, CABn arrow cabin arrow is
his favorite hot sauce. So then Jamison

784
00:51:44,679 --> 00:51:47,679
asked them and how many stars are
on the American flag? How many stars

785
00:51:49,000 --> 00:51:52,159
are on the American flag? Danny, these are always our favorite kind of

786
00:51:52,280 --> 00:51:53,480
questions. I hope he said,
fifty, but I don't believe it.

787
00:51:53,639 --> 00:52:04,599
Okay, fifty six sing American Samoa, Puerto Rico, Pago, Pago,

788
00:52:05,039 --> 00:52:07,960
Pago, uh d d C.
We're kind of the district of Columbia.

789
00:52:08,480 --> 00:52:12,519
Uh maybe Canada, I don't know, Like they call him the fifty first

790
00:52:12,559 --> 00:52:16,719
state, and that still leaves one
other so uh maybe uh Cuba. St

791
00:52:16,760 --> 00:52:21,360
Martin, Yeah, Cuba, right, Saint Martin. Uh Okay. So

792
00:52:21,679 --> 00:52:23,920
then right away Jamison asked him,
Okay, and why are you at the

793
00:52:23,920 --> 00:52:28,920
courthouse. Why are you at the
courthouse? Why are at the courthouse.

794
00:52:29,360 --> 00:52:31,599
So, look, this is a
guy who likes having an arrow sauce.

795
00:52:32,239 --> 00:52:37,519
He likes uh, he thinks there's
fifty six stars in the American flag.

796
00:52:37,960 --> 00:52:42,159
Danny, What is this gentleman doing
at the courthouse. I'll bet you he's

797
00:52:42,280 --> 00:52:45,880
there for alimony. He's got to
pay baby mama something. Okay, alimony.

798
00:52:46,360 --> 00:52:49,760
Let's see if you are correct,
We'll see. We get the answer

799
00:52:49,800 --> 00:53:00,400
here. Do you mind ify it? Oh? My god, I mean

800
00:53:01,039 --> 00:53:08,519
terrorist against my mom's eyes. He
got terrorist threats, terrorists against his mom's

801
00:53:08,840 --> 00:53:15,679
X, terrorist threats against his mom's
So now I have to jump in.

802
00:53:15,800 --> 00:53:31,519
I can't stay quiet with this charging. You're protecting your mom stuff? Six

803
00:53:31,599 --> 00:53:37,800
months? Six months in jail for
terroristic threats. Uh. I don't know

804
00:53:37,840 --> 00:53:40,239
if there was gun assault in there, but basically he went after his mom's

805
00:53:40,639 --> 00:53:45,280
X and he was doing he was
doing God's work and he did six months

806
00:53:45,360 --> 00:53:49,440
in the Monroe County jail. I
had to ask, I don't know if

807
00:53:49,480 --> 00:53:52,480
you were you were here, but
Sheriff Baxter when he came in, I

808
00:53:52,559 --> 00:53:55,320
was left of chips that you can
only get. Oh. I did try

809
00:53:55,360 --> 00:54:02,960
the chips. Yes, yes,
yeah, I was What are the name

810
00:54:04,000 --> 00:54:14,559
of the what are the name of

811
00:54:14,559 --> 00:54:20,880
get anywhere but in the jail only
places. Yeah, he's in the city.

812
00:54:20,920 --> 00:54:22,599
You can find him, all right, and the Wayne County jail.

813
00:54:22,760 --> 00:54:25,519
We're also learning maybe we're also learning
that how to like this. So I

814
00:54:25,639 --> 00:54:29,960
apologize. It probably would have been
better just on the phone. So you

815
00:54:30,000 --> 00:54:32,719
know, our friend Doug Phelps is
a number driver. So in between jobs,

816
00:54:32,719 --> 00:54:37,000
about five six years ago, I
was a lyft driver and I was

817
00:54:37,079 --> 00:54:42,679
summoned, uh to I believe it
was Penfield, this apartment complex in Penfield,

818
00:54:42,719 --> 00:54:46,079
to pick somebody up by the person's
mother. Okay. So I'm like,

819
00:54:46,119 --> 00:54:50,079
okay, So I'm waiting and this
is like taking like twenty minutes.

820
00:54:50,119 --> 00:54:52,599
So I call I go, man, like, somebody, uh some from

821

826
00:55:15,719 --> 00:55:19,480
points. See, it's not a
it's not a perfect system. So I

00:55:51,880 --> 00:55:53,760
Yeah, no problem. So I'm
driving under all sudden, Hey I'm

00:56:00,719 --> 00:56:04,800
oh yeah that that transmission is about
to go he goes, and I'm drunk.

840
00:56:04,880 --> 00:56:07,719
I can tell I'm telling you the
truth. So I went and traded

841
00:56:07,760 --> 00:56:10,159
my car in like the next week. But it was so hilarious, Like

842
00:56:10,199 --> 00:56:14,800
the guy there the same age the
boyfriend is the same age as the woman

843
00:56:14,960 --> 00:56:16,760
said. He's drunk, he's a
racist. They throw him in the car.

844
00:56:17,159 --> 00:56:19,800
I got to bring him home.
Oh. Then he wanted me to

845
00:56:19,880 --> 00:56:22,000
stop at the one of the quick
fills along the way, and he goes,

846
00:56:22,039 --> 00:56:27,199
oh, I forgot did him to
cash? All right? We have

847
00:56:27,800 --> 00:56:31,159
one more what you're doing at the
courthouse. This is with my son Jamison

848
00:56:31,239 --> 00:56:35,079
today, because this is what I
do with father son time. I make

849
00:56:35,159 --> 00:56:46,280
bits. Thick crust pizza. What's
your favorite hot sauce? I don't remember.

850
00:56:46,599 --> 00:56:51,039
She doesn't remember her favorite hot sauce. I think she said thin crust

851
00:56:51,079 --> 00:56:54,480
pizza, favorite hot sauce. She
doesn't remember. And how many stars on

852
00:56:54,519 --> 00:56:58,280
the American flag? How many stars
in an American flag? Do you think

853
00:56:58,320 --> 00:57:01,840
she gets this right or wrong?
Let's say she says fifty two, yes,

854
00:57:01,960 --> 00:57:05,840
ma'am, okay, isn't it like
fifty Yes? She was right.

855
00:57:06,199 --> 00:57:08,440
My favorite answer is fifty two.
So many people would say fifty two.

856
00:57:08,480 --> 00:57:12,719
I think they they're confused. The
weeks in the year yeah, and somebody

857
00:57:12,760 --> 00:57:15,440
else like today, said thirteen.
But there are thirteen stripes, as Jameson

858
00:57:15,480 --> 00:57:19,039
said to me, And I feel
bad that guy got confused, but the

859
00:57:19,039 --> 00:57:21,360
audio didn't really work. Here we
go, and why are you at the

860
00:57:21,400 --> 00:57:24,480
courthouse today? Okay, why are
you at the courthouse? Lovely, lovely,

861
00:57:24,679 --> 00:57:30,320
great personality. I'll just tell you
that little little cheating We'll have I

862
00:57:30,440 --> 00:57:34,960
have video of this stuff so you'll
see it on the socials. She likes

863
00:57:35,039 --> 00:57:37,960
I think she said thin crust.
She doesn't know what hot sauce she likes,

864
00:57:38,000 --> 00:57:40,920
and she knows there's fifty stars in
the American She is a support person

865
00:57:42,039 --> 00:57:45,480
or she's visiting her support support is
a good question, good good answer.

866
00:57:45,719 --> 00:57:47,880
Oh, I have to do drug
test. Okay, thank you so much.

867
00:57:49,679 --> 00:57:52,639
She had to do a drug test. She had to do a drug

868
00:57:52,719 --> 00:57:54,039
test. So there was another guy
that had to do a drug test.

869
00:57:54,079 --> 00:57:59,000
And I had a conversation with him
and he and he's like he's telling me

870
00:57:59,039 --> 00:58:02,360
about how yeah, you know,
I gotta I can only be me to

871
00:58:02,480 --> 00:58:06,599
myself because to my kids, I
gotta be a role model. To a

872
00:58:06,760 --> 00:58:08,679
judge, I gotta, I gotta, you know, basically tell them what

873
00:58:08,760 --> 00:58:10,960
they want to hear. To a
lawyer, I gotta be this. But

874
00:58:12,480 --> 00:58:17,719
I can just be truly me to
myself. So we walk away from that

875
00:58:17,840 --> 00:58:22,079
guy and he said all this stuff, and Javison goes, hey, guy

876
00:58:22,239 --> 00:58:30,920
was really deep. I go,
oh, yeah, with something. Javison

877
00:58:30,079 --> 00:58:34,320
is one of like you know,
as a parent, I would always say

878
00:58:34,320 --> 00:58:36,920
to the other boys, I'm not
your I'm not your friend, I'm your

879
00:58:36,960 --> 00:58:39,159
dad. Yes, so we need
to keep some of the you know,

880
00:58:39,360 --> 00:58:45,199
hey, bro, that kind of
ship needs to be by mini condoms for

881
00:58:45,320 --> 00:58:50,400
Jordan's Yeah. Uh so all these
things I need to, like, you

882
00:58:50,480 --> 00:58:54,519
know, just run in with Jamison. It's terrible because we're so much alike

883
00:58:54,599 --> 00:58:59,440
in terms of the sense of humor
and stuff that. I mean, even

884
00:58:59,480 --> 00:59:01,119
today we're together. And he said
something, he goes, oh, man,

885
00:59:01,559 --> 00:59:04,280
out of the corner of my eye, I thought that was a hot

886
00:59:04,360 --> 00:59:07,480
dog mascot and I look over and
it's this big woman in pink in like

887
00:59:07,559 --> 00:59:10,920
a pink shirt and she's big.
You go to and I just start laughing.

888
00:59:12,119 --> 00:59:15,199
And I shouldn't laugh. I shouldn't
laugh. I should go, hey,

889
00:59:15,920 --> 00:59:17,320
buddy, let's be kind. Like
if it was the other boys,

890
00:59:17,360 --> 00:59:20,559
I would go, that's not funny. See, my dad would My dad

891
00:59:20,599 --> 00:59:23,400
would actually be the guy who instigated
that stuff. So we're Christian people,

892
00:59:23,519 --> 00:59:27,400
right, but we'd be driving down
the road if he saw a fat woman

893
00:59:27,679 --> 00:59:29,559
walk. He goes, hey,
Dan, look at that Walrus. Yeah,

894
00:59:29,639 --> 00:59:30,320
yeah, yeah, it's like,
Dad, you're not supposed to You're

895
00:59:30,360 --> 00:59:32,360
right, daddy, boy, Yeah, you're right. I'm sorry. Two

896
00:59:32,440 --> 00:59:35,280
days later, hey look at that, Walrus. Well, I was like,

897
00:59:35,400 --> 00:59:38,159
my grandfather used to do that too. It when my grand my mom's

898
00:59:38,239 --> 00:59:43,800
dad died that my grandfather, who
I was very close with, we used

899
00:59:43,800 --> 00:59:45,719
to write stories. He would write
a portion and mail it to me,

900
00:59:46,679 --> 00:59:50,480
and then I would write the next
portion and mail it back. Let's go

901
00:59:50,639 --> 00:59:54,159
do that. We did all that, and my mom's dad died. So

902
00:59:55,280 --> 00:59:58,960
we're at the I meet him in
the parking lot of the funeral home.

903
00:59:59,000 --> 01:00:00,599
It's awake, and it's irish,
and he's a fireman from New York City.

904
01:00:00,679 --> 01:00:05,639
So there's on our guard and it's
two days or three days, and

905
01:00:05,719 --> 01:00:08,559
there's alcohol, and uh, my
grandfather goes, oh, I guess I'm

906
01:00:08,599 --> 01:00:14,360
your I guess I'm your favorite grandfather
now and I start laughing. Then it's

907
01:00:14,519 --> 01:00:15,679
you know, I'm sitting in the
back of the church and all of a

908
01:00:15,719 --> 01:00:19,960
sudden, this big woman, I
mean she was big. She gets goes

909
01:00:20,039 --> 01:00:22,480
up and kneels next to the coffin. She just praying. My grandfather goes,

910
01:00:22,519 --> 01:00:25,559
holy goosh, look in the size
of her It was billy a stick

911
01:00:25,599 --> 01:00:30,800
of light bulb upper ass her antler's
glow, and I fucking lost it.

912
01:00:30,000 --> 01:00:32,800
I lost it all of a sudden, the front of the front of it's

913
01:00:32,840 --> 01:00:36,760
not the church. It's at the
funeral home. My mother's snapping her fingers

914
01:00:36,800 --> 01:00:44,519
and con She's like, so I
got tossed because my grandfather at my other

915
01:00:44,599 --> 01:00:49,239
grandfather's my material, my paternal grandfather
got me thrown out of my maternal grandmofather's

916
01:00:49,320 --> 01:00:53,599
uh wake. It was unbelievable.
It's amazing. Let's just star. So

917
01:00:54,000 --> 01:00:59,239
here's my complaint about about the courthouse. And it's not really the courthouse.

918
01:00:59,519 --> 01:01:02,639
I can't say it's the parking garage. I parked in the Civic Center parking

919
01:01:02,679 --> 01:01:07,239
garage. I just have to say
this way here. Often I can't find

920
01:01:07,519 --> 01:01:12,159
help. I can't find people to
work. I can't find that. And

921
01:01:12,280 --> 01:01:15,840
I say, maybe I live in
a bubble. I have guys who are

922
01:01:15,840 --> 01:01:20,599
in their twenties and they're working all
the time. My son Jordan, we're

923
01:01:20,679 --> 01:01:22,840
delayed going to my mom's and he's
a student athlete at Roberts Wesley and on

924
01:01:22,880 --> 01:01:29,159
their track team because he wants to
work till five o'clock tomorrow for the ten

925
01:01:29,239 --> 01:01:32,480
company. He works for McCarthy's,
so he was today. He was at

926
01:01:32,519 --> 01:01:36,239
the warehouse and then over at U
of R and all this stuff. So

927
01:01:37,119 --> 01:01:44,320
I just I'm not seeing or recognizing
what other people recognizing until today I go

928
01:01:44,519 --> 01:01:47,559
there, I do the podcast with
Deputy Hurley in place of Sheriff Baxter and

929
01:01:47,719 --> 01:01:52,400
drop on to April tenth, and
he said, I'll validate your parking.

930
01:01:52,719 --> 01:01:57,760
I said, fantastic, validate the
parking. I go down, we do

931
01:01:58,039 --> 01:02:00,360
what you're doing at the courthouse,
and then I go down to the garage

932
01:02:00,480 --> 01:02:05,400
and I drive to out the Exchange
Street exit. That's where I'm going to

933
01:02:05,440 --> 01:02:08,679
go. And it's not taking the
ticket. It's like keeps spitting the ticket

934
01:02:08,760 --> 01:02:12,440
back out of me. So I
pushed the little intercom. They go,

935
01:02:12,559 --> 01:02:16,000
well, you're gonna have to back
up. And I've got this beautiful ram

936
01:02:16,079 --> 01:02:20,960
truck from Victor Chrysler Dodge deeep ramp. It really is if you put a

937
01:02:21,039 --> 01:02:24,880
light bulb in the back of the
antlers, well they got it's got every

938
01:02:25,000 --> 01:02:29,360
kind of beeping signal because you're in
a tight space, right, and if

939
01:02:29,400 --> 01:02:31,719
you get too close to anything.
Nowadays, these trucks will jam the brakes

940
01:02:31,840 --> 01:02:36,880
on for you because you're such an
idiot and like it knows you're centimeters away,

941
01:02:36,920 --> 01:02:40,280
and it spares you because any damage
to these cars are thousands of dollars,

942
01:02:40,400 --> 01:02:45,159
right. So i'm you know.
So they say to me, you

943
01:02:45,280 --> 01:02:47,199
have to You're gonna have to go
where there's a person, and the person

944
01:02:47,320 --> 01:02:50,639
is on the fits you exit.
I go, that's on the other side

945
01:02:50,639 --> 01:02:52,760
of the garage and they said yeah, and I go, okay. So

946
01:02:52,760 --> 01:02:54,480
she goes, yeah, you're gonna
have to back up and drive. So

947
01:02:54,599 --> 01:02:59,480
now so I back up. I
drive. There's something. I think there's

948
01:02:59,639 --> 01:03:04,960
two lanes out. There are two
lanes out. Only one is operational though,

949
01:03:05,920 --> 01:03:08,079
So I pull up to the gate. It's not going up. There's

950
01:03:08,119 --> 01:03:10,840
not a person in the little house
there. But I look over to my

951
01:03:10,960 --> 01:03:15,719
right, there's four or five people
in this building in this one little room.

952
01:03:15,280 --> 01:03:19,119
So I come over and they begrudgingly
waved me in. I said,

953
01:03:19,159 --> 01:03:22,400
hey, I was just did a
podcast for the sheriff, and they validated

954
01:03:22,480 --> 01:03:25,440
my my parking. Can somebody lift
the gate? For me. And the

955
01:03:25,559 --> 01:03:29,679
guy goes, you're gonna have to
back up and go to the other lane.

956
01:03:30,519 --> 01:03:32,199
And I go, I said what, And he goes, you're gonna

957
01:03:32,199 --> 01:03:36,360
have to back up. You're gonna
have to go to the other lane.

958
01:03:36,480 --> 01:03:37,760
That's where the machine is that you
put the ticket in. I go,

959
01:03:37,840 --> 01:03:40,760
well, the machine's not taking the
ticket in anyway. He goes, well,

960
01:03:42,199 --> 01:03:44,840
this machine will take it. I
said, this is the same machine

961
01:03:44,840 --> 01:03:45,760
that was down at the other end
of the garage and it didn't take it.

962
01:03:45,800 --> 01:03:49,119
Can't you just lift the gate?
I go, I can't. I

963
01:03:49,159 --> 01:03:50,719
go. Look at the size of
that truck. I go, this,

964
01:03:51,039 --> 01:03:54,559
this garage is antiquated, right,
compared to the size of cars too.

965
01:03:54,639 --> 01:03:58,639
Yeah, they used to hold like
a host to Yes, horses and carriages.

966
01:03:59,039 --> 01:04:00,559
I mean it's well sort of,
I mean, but the cars were

967
01:04:00,599 --> 01:04:03,400
smaller. Yeah. So I said, can you just and he goes,

968
01:04:04,039 --> 01:04:06,360
no, you're gonna have to back
up. No, I go, how

969
01:04:06,400 --> 01:04:09,519
am I going to back up and
pull up because you're gonna have to drive

970
01:04:09,599 --> 01:04:13,679
around and come back in. And
I look, and there's four or five

971
01:04:13,719 --> 01:04:15,760
people that are all just sitting in
this room, and I go, watch

972
01:04:15,800 --> 01:04:19,840
it. I went in my hand
I go, Holy f I thought,

973
01:04:20,760 --> 01:04:24,440
what happened? To just make the
customer happy? All want to do is

974
01:04:24,480 --> 01:04:27,239
get out of the fucking garage.
That's all I want to do. I

975
01:04:27,360 --> 01:04:30,880
just want to get out of the
garage. So I go, okay,

976
01:04:30,679 --> 01:04:34,599
and so I back up. The
guy comes out and stands there watches me

977
01:04:34,800 --> 01:04:42,360
back up. I drive out.
I come back around now as I get

978
01:04:42,400 --> 01:04:44,840
in this lane, I get in
the right lane, I put the ticket

979
01:04:44,920 --> 01:04:48,360
in. Ticket shoots back out and
he walks over and he goes, uh,

980
01:04:49,280 --> 01:04:55,000
share a validate to this? I
said, yeah, heyes, you

981
01:04:55,079 --> 01:05:00,360
sure? I said, well,
I was just on the podcast early.

982
01:05:00,519 --> 01:05:02,639
They have video if you'd like to
go see. Yes, No, that's

983
01:05:02,639 --> 01:05:10,440
fine. Looks at it again.
Yes, all right, and like wedges

984
01:05:10,519 --> 01:05:14,960
himself between the truck and the little
booth, the little checkout thing, yeah,

985
01:05:15,119 --> 01:05:17,239
and pushes some button and e raisst
thing. I go, youkn'd have

986
01:05:17,320 --> 01:05:21,119
done this? Fucking hard? Was
that to do? Fifteen minutes ago?

987
01:05:23,079 --> 01:05:26,559
It? Anyway? How is that
possible? And he went, you gotta

988
01:05:26,639 --> 01:05:30,519
be miserable in your job. You
have to be to do that, like

989
01:05:31,119 --> 01:05:36,079
it is a thing. I had
a miserable day yesterday. Miserable awful,

990
01:05:36,880 --> 01:05:41,360
awful, to the point where I
wound up rerunning, not rerunning, but

991
01:05:41,719 --> 01:05:45,760
taking a podcast I planned to run
later and running it yesterday because just things

992
01:05:45,800 --> 01:05:48,559
where it's just and I go when
you and it was my in my head

993
01:05:49,000 --> 01:05:53,559
when you start, there's a momentum
to it, and it's shitty, and

994
01:05:53,639 --> 01:05:57,280
you can make everything worse. Well, when you're dealing with people who doesn't

995
01:05:57,320 --> 01:06:00,320
love the person's like, hey,
beautiful day today, that's finally getting some

996
01:06:00,440 --> 01:06:03,280
vitamin D. How can I help
you? You know what, I'll lift

997
01:06:03,320 --> 01:06:05,880
that gate for you, no problem, or even if you said to me,

998
01:06:06,000 --> 01:06:10,880
I'm so sorry, it's kind of
impossible for us to do it that

999
01:06:10,960 --> 01:06:13,360
way. Look, I know this
is gonna be a pain, but back

1000
01:06:13,440 --> 01:06:15,400
up I would have been I wouldn't
even be talking right now. I know.

1001
01:06:15,519 --> 01:06:18,320
Do you know what I'm saying?
And it just shows you and I

1002
01:06:18,480 --> 01:06:23,199
know that it sounds like a simple
it sounds like a stupid thing, but

1003
01:06:23,360 --> 01:06:27,000
it's a huge thing. It's a
huge thing with and and it's something for

1004
01:06:27,199 --> 01:06:30,199
all of us to remember when we
interact with anybody. We love being around

1005
01:06:30,239 --> 01:06:33,599
people who are energetic. Pod don't
think of your friends who just have a

1006
01:06:33,639 --> 01:06:36,320
lot of energy and are fun and
you're like, God, I love hanging

1007
01:06:36,360 --> 01:06:40,119
out with that guy. Right,
Yeah, you can get off that man

1008
01:06:40,840 --> 01:06:44,719
exactly. And I'm not saying you
know, maybe you're I mean, look

1009
01:06:44,760 --> 01:06:47,400
that that probably is a job like
and I'm sorry to put it this way.

1010
01:06:47,440 --> 01:06:50,239
I don't mean it in a negative
way, but it was like being

1011
01:06:50,280 --> 01:06:54,440
a you know, a troll bridge
operator and come out once in a while

1012
01:06:54,559 --> 01:06:58,360
and you got it, and I
guarantee people are surly. Come on,

1013
01:06:58,519 --> 01:07:00,599
God, damn, I got somewhere
to be. I got a meeting in

1014
01:07:00,639 --> 01:07:02,280
ten minutes. I could get out
of the garage. You know, I'm

1015
01:07:02,320 --> 01:07:05,880
sure there's a lot of that.
But if you met it with you know

1016
01:07:05,960 --> 01:07:10,960
what I understand. Let me give
me less than ten seconds. We're gonna

1017
01:07:10,960 --> 01:07:14,320
get you right on your way.
Boy, you become a hero. You

1018
01:07:14,400 --> 01:07:16,599
know, think of there's a guy
in our and every city has one of

1019
01:07:16,639 --> 01:07:21,039
these, but Uncle Phil that everybody
knows Uncle Phil. He works the parking

1020
01:07:21,840 --> 01:07:26,760
at every event in Rochester, whether
it be a Rochester Red Wings game they're

1021
01:07:26,840 --> 01:07:30,119
the the Triple A team for the
Nationals, or he's at our Lilac Fest

1022
01:07:30,239 --> 01:07:35,320
or I'm sure he'll be Rochesters the
eclipse. Yes right, and honey,

help you over here, right, but

1024
01:07:38,920 --> 01:07:41,519

help you. That guy needs to teach

1025
01:07:41,559 --> 01:07:45,400
a classes on how to have class
I'm sorry, he really is. It's

1026
01:07:45,400 --> 01:07:47,920
an amazing thing. He's Rochester's best
pr guy. Yes, he really is.

1027
01:07:48,039 --> 01:07:50,880
And I'm sorry to sound like a
grumpy old man, but I am

1028
01:07:50,960 --> 01:07:56,000
telling you that goes a long way, you think. And I didn't want

1029
01:07:56,039 --> 01:07:57,719
to flip out in front of my
kid or be you know what. I

1030
01:07:57,719 --> 01:07:59,880
didn't want to flip out. I
just wanted to get on my way.

1031
01:08:00,000 --> 01:08:03,280
I know my way. It's an
inconvenience and it was multiplied. I just

1032
01:08:03,320 --> 01:08:06,639
want to get in my way.
And as people have like tried to do

1033
01:08:08,039 --> 01:08:12,400
the right thing like that before and
been burned by it possibly very possible that

1034
01:08:12,920 --> 01:08:15,319
it's possible or the other thing.
But you could also be like even to

1035
01:08:15,399 --> 01:08:19,119
say to me, I said to
you, I was on the Sheriff's podcast,

1036
01:08:19,239 --> 01:08:23,319
So you say to me the sheriff
Alladay, and I go, yeah,

1037
01:08:24,319 --> 01:08:27,760
you sure. I'm like, now
you're just being a prick. And

1038
01:08:27,880 --> 01:08:30,079
I get it. I get it, and I do think that sometimes there

1039
01:08:30,199 --> 01:08:35,279
is I think it's in their head, but we all do it. They

1040
01:08:35,359 --> 01:08:40,199
think. I think they look at
at people and think you in the car

1041
01:08:40,359 --> 01:08:43,319
are better than you, think you're
better than And I don't think I'm better

1042
01:08:43,359 --> 01:08:45,520
than you. I just want to
get out of my way. I got

1043
01:08:45,560 --> 01:08:48,000
ship to do. This is my
lot in life. It's got ship to

1044
01:08:48,079 --> 01:08:54,479
do well. Maybe maybe not after
day, month after month, year after

1045
01:08:54,600 --> 01:08:57,039
year. Well, I'll tell you
what, attitude goes a long way.

1046
01:08:57,439 --> 01:09:00,039
And if you're positive even and I
know, oh it sounds, it's so

1047
01:09:00,439 --> 01:09:04,800
much easier said than done. Yesterday
was a prime example for me. But

1048
01:09:04,960 --> 01:09:10,319
it's one of these things where if
you get a choice, no matter what

1049
01:09:10,439 --> 01:09:13,520
pops up, look for the positive
in it or try to find it or

1050
01:09:13,640 --> 01:09:17,000
bring it with a smile. You
you could change someone's entire day. You

1051
01:09:17,079 --> 01:09:21,600
could have somebody who just got the
worst news right their loved one. They're

1052
01:09:21,640 --> 01:09:25,680
in that garage, their loved ones
going to jail for the next six months,

1053
01:09:26,000 --> 01:09:28,199
and they are distraught, and they
don't know how they're going to make

1054
01:09:28,279 --> 01:09:30,079
ends meet because that person's not bringing
an income. All this stuff, and

1055
01:09:30,239 --> 01:09:32,800
you can say to them on the
way, you can say to them you

1056
01:09:32,920 --> 01:09:35,399
got to back up and move this
shit around on sorry, or you could

1057
01:09:35,399 --> 01:09:39,680
say, you know what, I
hope you have a better day. The

1058
01:09:39,760 --> 01:09:43,520
sun is shining, right, we're
all still here. Keep a smile on

1059
01:09:43,600 --> 01:09:46,800
that pretty face and go why can't
you do that? Why can't you do

1060
01:09:46,880 --> 01:09:51,079
that? I remember when we worked
at High Falls and there was a garage

1061
01:09:51,159 --> 01:09:54,840
there and everybody hated, like having
to pay the monthly rate for it.

1062
01:09:55,000 --> 01:10:00,119
Right, And but if you stayed
till the end or whatever, everyone for

1063
01:10:00,239 --> 01:10:01,720
a while. If you're if you
like got to the end and you forgot

1064
01:10:01,760 --> 01:10:04,439
to pay your bill or whatever,
they let you out. They're be like,

1065
01:10:04,439 --> 01:10:06,239
hey, they look the other way. They go, okay, look

1066
01:10:09,159 --> 01:10:12,000
you didn't see this for me,
don't tell anybody's pay your bill. Yes,

1067
01:10:12,039 --> 01:10:13,920
I'm gonna let you out. Yes, Yes, they give you a

1068
01:10:14,000 --> 01:10:15,199
break, yes, every once in
a while. And then we left them

1069
01:10:15,279 --> 01:10:17,640
for it. Yes, they were
fantastic. Then they call, hey,

1070
01:10:17,720 --> 01:10:21,359
yeah you got tickets to uh yes
to uh Eddie Murphy come to town.

1071
01:10:21,520 --> 01:10:25,159
Right, but still, I mean
it was they understood it, but it

1072
01:10:25,239 --> 01:10:29,000
was it was customer customer focus.
It's called right, not just customer service,

1073
01:10:29,039 --> 01:10:30,319
customer focus. Do you have to
do it? You know, it's

but Kenya. Sure you know it's
great at Customer Focus, Dan Mason,

that organization needs to moon walk during the

stretch across the moon the moon rocks. Uh don't. I don't think they've

1137
01:15:04,119 --> 01:15:09,840
already thought of that. That is
a that's a very good call dance.

1138
01:15:09,960 --> 01:15:12,520
Yeah, we'll have to Uh,
we'll have to work that in. You

1139
01:15:12,560 --> 01:15:15,079
know, our skipper, Matt Lee
Croy is a great dancer. I might

1140
01:15:15,159 --> 01:15:18,079
get him to do it. May
sti't lie. You've been practicing your moonwalk

1141
01:15:18,079 --> 01:15:24,000
ever since this all? You know
me, I'm more of a I'm more

1142
01:15:24,039 --> 01:15:28,600
of a dead dancer, not a
not a good not a good dancer.

1143
01:15:28,840 --> 01:15:33,640
Yeah. Well, this is exciting
because opening day earlier than the past couple

1144
01:15:33,680 --> 01:15:40,520
of years. Yeah, we're well. Last year we opened uh March.

1145
01:15:40,720 --> 01:15:45,520
I think it was thirty first last
year year for some reason, I don't

1146
01:15:45,520 --> 01:15:48,680
know. Yeah, usually it was. It used to be that used to

1147
01:15:48,760 --> 01:15:51,600
be like the you know, kind
of the first week of April, and

1148
01:15:53,199 --> 01:15:57,560
our season starts earlier. Uh.
Major League Baseball wanted us to kind of

1149
01:15:57,640 --> 01:16:02,439
mirror their schedule, So they opened
today and we open tomorrow against the dreaded

1150
01:16:02,760 --> 01:16:08,479
Syracuse Mets in Syracuse, and then
we're home for the home opener against Lehigh

1151
01:16:08,560 --> 01:16:11,399
Valley on Tuesday. Yeah, Tuesday, and that's a I know, that's

1152
01:16:11,399 --> 01:16:15,640
a big deal. I have friends
who have gone to every Opening Day a

1153
01:16:15,760 --> 01:16:21,119
friend and their dad for probably forty
years, if maybe longer. Yeah,

1154
01:16:21,479 --> 01:16:26,039
I think that's really cool. It's
something that you know, you know what

1155
01:16:26,159 --> 01:16:29,560
you have done, You've made memories
for people, which I think is one

1156
01:16:29,600 --> 01:16:31,840
of the greatest things you can do
as a business, right, no doubt.

1157
01:16:31,920 --> 01:16:36,479
That's what we're in the business of, you know, fun and making

1158
01:16:36,560 --> 01:16:41,279
memories. So it's it's awesome to
hear stories like that, and you know,

1159
01:16:41,399 --> 01:16:45,359
people Opening Day is a is a
write of passage for a lot of

1160
01:16:45,479 --> 01:16:49,800
families, and you know, like
just like your buddy, and there's just

1161
01:16:49,880 --> 01:16:55,039
something special about Opening Day. You
know, you still get the butterflies,

1162
01:16:55,119 --> 01:16:59,479
and you still it's just one of
the coolest games of the season, and

1163
01:16:59,560 --> 01:17:04,000
it's a sign that spring is finally
here and and the first of seventy five

1164
01:17:04,079 --> 01:17:09,079
home games for the Wings. Talk
to me real quick about you know,

1165
01:17:09,279 --> 01:17:13,119
I obviously baseball and we've got the
entire season to look forward to, but

1166
01:17:13,319 --> 01:17:18,920
talk to me about the the Eclipse
party and what people can expect, because

1167
01:17:18,920 --> 01:17:21,560
I think a lot of people are
now you know the excitement, there's more

1168
01:17:21,600 --> 01:17:27,760
build up. We're getting warnings.
We're being told to stock up on three

1169
01:17:27,840 --> 01:17:31,800
days worth the groceries and make sure
you've got I know it seems a little

1170
01:17:31,880 --> 01:17:36,520
ridiculous, it does, but I
think that it's it's certainly a historic moment

1171
01:17:36,960 --> 01:17:41,119
and something that we all want to
see. But you know what would be

1172
01:17:41,159 --> 01:17:45,840
the best time to arrive, you
think at Innovative Field and to be part

1173
01:17:45,880 --> 01:17:48,640
of all the things that are happening
there. On Monday, April sure,

1174
01:17:48,760 --> 01:17:53,960
Our Solar Bluza party starts at noon, so gates will open at noon,

1175
01:17:54,159 --> 01:18:00,840
will have live music from the Skycoasters, will have massive feed on the two

1176
01:18:00,920 --> 01:18:04,600
largest televisions in Monroe County, our
video boards. We'll have an arts and

1177
01:18:04,680 --> 01:18:08,399
craft station for the kids. We're
going to have a scavenger hunt. We're

1178
01:18:08,399 --> 01:18:14,239
gonna have autographs from our stars,
the Red Wings players, Mac Spikes and

1179
01:18:14,359 --> 01:18:17,640
MITSI will be around. It's going
to be a great party. And first

1180
01:18:17,680 --> 01:18:21,680
three thousand fans are going to get
a free pair of eclipse glasses because you

1181
01:18:21,760 --> 01:18:26,800
must be wearing your glasses to view
the Great North American Eclipse. Yeah,

1182
01:18:28,119 --> 01:18:30,800
and uh, and of course,
like I said, all kinds of really

1183
01:18:30,880 --> 01:18:36,039
cool solar Pluza and moon Rock strip
available in the Red Wings team store.

1184
01:18:36,119 --> 01:18:40,479

great party. I'm going to try to

1185
01:18:40,520 --> 01:18:44,079
get there right at at noon then, or or maybe a few minutes earlier.

1186
01:18:45,199 --> 01:18:48,800
I'm worried. Well, yeah,
I mean the one thing that we

1187
01:18:49,000 --> 01:18:51,840

gosh, it was nineteen ninety four,

1207
01:20:19,279 --> 01:20:26,239
wasn't it ninety five? Ninety five? Okay? That was right before the

or two before the new stadium. Yeah,

1209
01:20:28,800 --> 01:20:31,159
two years before we moved here in
ninety seven. I remember when he

1210
01:20:31,680 --> 01:20:36,079
came in because somebody goes that it's
a McQuay guy. All McQuay guys here,

1211

That's what I heard. And I

So during that segment, jd Our former

1225
01:21:36,800 --> 01:21:43,079
intern now Dan and I at one
point were part of a show on w

1226
01:21:43,359 --> 01:21:45,880
CMF, which was a legendary rock
station in the in the Northeast, and

1227
01:21:45,960 --> 01:21:50,680
we did mornings there. Uh and
it was sort of after brother We's had

1228
01:21:50,760 --> 01:21:55,920
moved to another station, so we
stayed and they wanted to call us the

1229
01:21:56,000 --> 01:22:00,479
men's room, and I told them, well, somebody knows that that show

1230
01:22:00,520 --> 01:22:04,439
already exists in the Great Northwest.
So then whatever. We don't need to

1231
01:22:04,479 --> 01:22:06,640
get into that. But we wound
up with an intern and his name with

1232
01:22:06,760 --> 01:22:12,720
JD. And I really like JD. He was fearless and clueless at the

1233
01:22:12,760 --> 01:22:16,239
same time, and it was fantastic. We dressed him up as the Pope.

1234
01:22:16,520 --> 01:22:18,520
We sent him out I think it
was around Easter time, yes,

1235
01:22:18,560 --> 01:22:21,560
and had him walk into a church
in an early morning service. They chased

1236
01:22:21,600 --> 01:22:25,560
him out, then he went out
and he's dancing around outside McQuaid with a

1237
01:22:25,600 --> 01:22:31,039
sign of his father knows best and
all. This was stupidly my idea.

1238
01:22:32,000 --> 01:22:35,359
And then he had We had this
guy we called Ramsey, Ramsey, the

1239
01:22:35,439 --> 01:22:40,800
pansy Ramsey winds up. He's on
the phone with us and some guy's trying

1240
01:22:40,840 --> 01:22:43,840
to rip the phone out of the
cop. The police officer trying to rip

1241
01:22:43,880 --> 01:22:45,399
the phone out. Some call goes, you can't do that to Ramsey.

1242
01:22:48,640 --> 01:22:51,880
This ship we did, and this
ship we got away with. But JD

1243
01:22:53,159 --> 01:22:57,000
was calling me during the segment with
Dan Mason because he saw that we're doing

1244
01:22:57,039 --> 01:23:00,199
what you're doing at the courthouse.
So I am calling JD back and see

1245
01:23:00,239 --> 01:23:01,359
if we can get her to answer
and find out what JD's up to.

1246
01:23:01,439 --> 01:23:03,760
I actually saw his dad not long
ago. Oh no, kid, Yeah,

1247
01:23:04,239 --> 01:23:08,239
oh shay, here we go.

does the podcast with me is Dan Burrillo.

1249
01:23:12,439 --> 01:23:15,039
It's going out there. I know, I saw that the other I

1250
01:23:15,119 --> 01:23:17,680
saw that for a minute. What's
up, guys? How are you good?

1251
01:23:17,800 --> 01:23:20,520
Man? Is good? Dude?

1253
01:23:28,159 --> 01:23:31,000

and your dad and I spoke and he

1254
01:23:31,079 --> 01:23:34,760
said, you're doing great? Uh? Are you selling some kind of computer?

1255
01:23:35,279 --> 01:23:43,279
Selling software software? Yeah? Yeah, so I I so it's been

1256
01:23:43,319 --> 01:23:46,680
a long journey since the since the
WCMF day. Yeah. I work in

1257
01:23:46,720 --> 01:23:53,680
the cloud industry doing right sales for
like a software as a service, right,

1258
01:23:53,760 --> 01:23:57,520
so it's like a kind of monthly
subscription model for software in the cloud

1259
01:23:57,520 --> 01:24:00,920
space. Yeah. Look, I
recruit softw for salespeople. So I saw

1260
01:24:01,039 --> 01:24:04,159
that, Dan, I saw your
LinkedIn and you actually I think he reached

1261
01:24:04,199 --> 01:24:08,960
out to me a couple of months
ago, or maybe a year ago,

1262
01:24:10,800 --> 01:24:14,840
because with your with your recruiting,
uh, the recruiting efforts they have.

1263
01:24:15,119 --> 01:24:18,600
Yeah, So JD, we were
reminiscing about some of the things we had

1264
01:24:18,640 --> 01:24:21,560
you do. It's at w CF. Do you remember some of those things?

1265
01:24:23,319 --> 01:24:25,840
Oh, dude, I tell these
stories, tell these stories all the

1266
01:24:25,880 --> 01:24:29,479
time. You remember the Dope Pope
that was brought up, the Dope Pope

1267
01:24:29,800 --> 01:24:35,159
where we stay out that picture?
What other things did we have you do?

1268
01:24:36,079 --> 01:24:40,239
All right? So we did the
we used to do the It started

1269
01:24:40,319 --> 01:24:43,239
with what do we do at the
courthouse? Yeah, we did have it.

1270
01:24:43,319 --> 01:24:45,960
But then I made my own game, which was the east Side,

1271
01:24:45,000 --> 01:24:47,760
West Side three one five. That
is true, that's right. You were

1272
01:24:47,800 --> 01:24:50,920
the one. That's right. You
did that, and I actually carried that

1273
01:24:51,520 --> 01:24:55,760
to other stations after that, and
I never gave you credit because I didn't

1274
01:24:55,800 --> 01:25:00,520
remember the terrible Well, the courthouse
was getting testy, people were getting testy,

1275
01:25:00,760 --> 01:25:03,680
and I was like, I'm in
I'm in community college. I should

1276
01:25:03,680 --> 01:25:09,359
be able to ask these people here
similar questions and find a way to build

1277
01:25:09,399 --> 01:25:12,720
a game around that. Okay,
well you did that was great? And

1278
01:25:13,159 --> 01:25:18,039
what else did we have you do? Let's see? Did you go down

1279
01:25:18,079 --> 01:25:23,800
when they were taping Spider Man?
Oh? Yeah, I think I was

1280
01:25:23,880 --> 01:25:27,600
just like kind of like on the
scenes for that. There wasn't spider Man.

1281
01:25:27,760 --> 01:25:29,920
I don't know if we did or
not, but I know I don't

1282
01:25:30,039 --> 01:25:32,920
dress up. I was on the
roof of a parking garage watching them do

1283
01:25:35,239 --> 01:25:40,920
watching them do one of the chase
scenes, right, and you guys had

1284
01:25:40,960 --> 01:25:42,920
pointed me in the direction for that, But no, I think it was

1285
01:25:43,000 --> 01:25:47,119
mostly the dope hoope thing, the
east Side West Side three one five.

1286
01:25:47,319 --> 01:25:51,479
I mean I was screening calls and
sleeping on the floor at the studio.

1287
01:25:53,399 --> 01:25:56,159
I had just turned twenty one,
so I was like drinking the city and

1288
01:25:56,199 --> 01:25:59,760
then I would come into the studio
and just sleep on the floor and then

1289
01:26:00,640 --> 01:26:03,479
oh god, radio man. It
was so much fun. It was fun.

1290
01:26:04,039 --> 01:26:09,319
Well, it was fun, and
it prepared me for a lot of

1291
01:26:09,600 --> 01:26:14,680
I don't know later in life.
I just felt like that that drive could

1292
01:26:14,800 --> 01:26:17,600
just talk to a total stranger.
Yes, yes, especially from a sales

1293
01:26:17,680 --> 01:26:20,399
perspective, you know, talking to
people who have no interest in talking to

1294
01:26:20,439 --> 01:26:25,479
you, and just getting past that
initial hey, how you doing yeah in

1295
01:26:25,560 --> 01:26:30,279
a positive way is a skill that
I've that I've carried with me throughout my

1296
01:26:30,359 --> 01:26:33,039
life. After that, Yeah,
well, congratulations and all this success.

1297
01:26:33,119 --> 01:26:38,119

three heads back when they only did the

1301
01:26:49,920 --> 01:26:55,920

regular bottles. Yeah, I think they

brew crafters, they were customer brew crafters.

1324
01:28:23,079 --> 01:28:26,920
Culver you didn't see this? No, oh yeah, well then you gotta

1325
01:28:26,960 --> 01:28:30,479
be quarker Culver, you gotta be
quicker. Got the quicker with that mail

1326
01:28:30,520 --> 01:28:35,600
bag. I did not see that. It's like Paranello's neighborhood. It was

1327
01:28:35,680 --> 01:28:41,119
John. All right, Well,
we'll take a moment. Here's what we'll

1328
01:28:41,159 --> 01:28:44,680
do. We'll find out about Diddy. We'll catch up and GSL News is

1329
01:28:44,680 --> 01:28:45,720
going to give it to Jeffrey Rogers, so he's going to give us some

1330
01:28:45,760 --> 01:28:49,800
Diddy talk, okay, because the
Diddy stuff is is I'm on I'm on

1331
01:28:49,960 --> 01:28:57,119
talk and I'm watching and I'm seeing
uh, fifty oh yeah, fifty cent

1332
01:28:57,239 --> 01:29:00,720
say he tried to get me to
go shopping with him. I'm like shopping,

1333
01:29:00,800 --> 01:29:02,199
Oh yeah, he goes. Let
me tell you something. He's gay.

1334
01:29:02,359 --> 01:29:05,720
Oh yeah, Kat Williams, Yeah, supposedly said he offered him like

1335
01:29:05,760 --> 01:29:10,039
fifty million dollars three times or something
like that to do stuff with him.

1336
01:29:10,119 --> 01:29:13,640
And then there's somebody else who's been
on TikTok that I'll tell you what I

1337
01:29:13,720 --> 01:29:16,279
heard, and then we'll get We'll
get Jeffrey Tice into the Nickelodeon stuff in

1338
01:29:16,399 --> 01:29:21,680
some cases. Yeah, And I'm
hearing stuff with Jamie Fox maybe connected to

1339
01:29:21,760 --> 01:29:26,960
this, and that there's a former
Syracuse basketball player who was a walk on

1340
01:29:27,159 --> 01:29:30,520
who was the drug fuel and he
he only did two years at Syracuse and

1341
01:29:30,560 --> 01:29:33,239
transfer. So I don't think they
want to claim this thing has the legs

1342
01:29:33,239 --> 01:29:38,079
of a tarantula. Yeah, but
it's it's wild and uh so we'll get

1343
01:29:38,079 --> 01:29:40,239
a little bit of news on that, and then maybe news of the day

1344
01:29:40,279 --> 01:29:43,960
from Danny from things I was not
aware of the assault and some other stuff.

1345
01:29:44,359 --> 01:29:47,439

01:32:02,039 --> 01:32:05,680
right, there's a puff daddy.
Yeah, they get to be careful with

1378
01:32:06,199 --> 01:32:10,159
what we're playing there. People saying
that there was no audio coming through.

1379
01:32:10,720 --> 01:32:14,039
We I think we have solved that
problem for the video portion. Now.

1380
01:32:14,760 --> 01:32:17,159
Uh see, here's the thing is, like, so when Kevin was here,

1381
01:32:17,399 --> 01:32:21,640
I would have Kevin do the audio
Kevin or do the video, and

1382
01:32:21,720 --> 01:32:26,119
then Kevin wouldn't switch the cameras,
so like it wouldn't be on the person

1383
01:32:26,199 --> 01:32:29,079
that was that was talking even like
now, so I go, I'll just

1384
01:32:29,159 --> 01:32:30,600
do it. Well, what happens
is I'm hitting so many buttons over here

1385
01:32:30,680 --> 01:32:33,960
sometimes like fat finger things, and
I wound up muting something okay, And

1386
01:32:34,079 --> 01:32:39,560
so that that's where that may have
happened. Uh, puff daddy. I

1387
01:32:39,640 --> 01:32:43,119
have to be a little careful in
some of the language in this song.

1388
01:32:43,640 --> 01:32:45,239
But there's a whole lot of stuff. And we had brought this up a

1389
01:32:45,319 --> 01:32:53,159
while ago. Now I'm hearing that
he may be be behind potentially the poisoning

1390
01:32:53,239 --> 01:32:58,720
as they're saying now of Jamie Fox, he may be behind the death of

1391
01:32:58,840 --> 01:33:00,840
his ex girlfriend who he or ex
wife, I don't know. He has

1392
01:33:00,920 --> 01:33:09,399
children with who she just sort of
mysteriously deteriorated and died. Then there's people

1393
01:33:09,399 --> 01:33:14,159
who are accusing him of all kinds
of sexual affecting, sex trafficking. But

1394
01:33:14,239 --> 01:33:17,920
here's the weird part. They raid
his house, and they raid his house

1395
01:33:18,000 --> 01:33:23,520
because he's got videotape. Why do
and I don't know if it's pedophilia or

1396
01:33:23,560 --> 01:33:29,159
not in terms of I don't know
how old these these people were, but

1397
01:33:29,359 --> 01:33:32,920
why keep the evidence around. It's
almost like you want to get caught right

1398
01:33:33,159 --> 01:33:35,840
in some weird way. At the
same time, though, when you think

1399
01:33:35,880 --> 01:33:40,640
you're that high up that you're untouchable, I guess, and I think in

1400
01:33:40,720 --> 01:33:45,399
a lot of cases, like when
this broke yesterday, a lot of people

1401
01:33:45,600 --> 01:33:47,680
who are very cynical about it.
And I'm not saying I believe this.

1402
01:33:47,760 --> 01:33:53,119
I'm saying, like what they said
said that the FBI and the likes were

1403
01:33:53,159 --> 01:33:56,399
not going to collect evidence, but
they are going to suppress evidence. In

1404
01:33:56,399 --> 01:33:59,680
other words, make Diddy the fall
guy, take the evidence out that could

1405
01:33:59,680 --> 01:34:03,119
implicate eight other people who are high
in power or higher up than Diddy.

1406
01:34:03,239 --> 01:34:06,800
Is make him look like the fall
guy? Yeah, okay, well maybe

1407
01:34:08,039 --> 01:34:12,159
I Meanwhile, he's out to some
country that doesn't extradite people back to the

1408
01:34:12,279 --> 01:34:15,279
ure Buddha. Is that what it's
called's in Barbuda, which is near Antigua?

1409
01:34:16,039 --> 01:34:19,000
Uh? Yeah? Is that that
wine we had earlier came from?

1410
01:34:19,159 --> 01:34:23,039
I think it was a wine.
Yeah. I think it was a delicious

1411
01:34:23,079 --> 01:34:27,359
barboot and wine. Now we're gonna
try Jeffrey Rogers uh to see because he

1412
01:34:27,479 --> 01:34:30,159
I know he's been following this and
following out TMZ and stuff. He's it

1413
01:34:30,199 --> 01:34:32,279
does mostly local news, but he
may have a little more insight on the

1414
01:34:32,319 --> 01:34:38,800
Diddy stuff. Okay, yeah,
Jeffrey Jeffrey Rodgers. Hello Jeffrey Rodgers.

1415
01:34:39,319 --> 01:34:42,199
Uh. First of all, jeff
Jeffrey Rogers. I was down at the

1416
01:34:42,279 --> 01:34:46,520
Monroe County jail today and uh,
I know you had just been there for

1417
01:34:46,800 --> 01:34:51,880
for a hot minute. Is everything
okay? Yeah? Yeah? So you

1418
01:34:51,960 --> 01:35:00,920
know I was arrested on too charge
the possessional weapon which is a TA which

1419
01:35:00,079 --> 01:35:04,119
that case is going forward to be
dismissed. There was also another one's riving

1420
01:35:04,239 --> 01:35:09,119
was suspended license which I did have
a knowledge that it was suspended, but

1421
01:35:09,239 --> 01:35:13,399
it was getting handled within the next
couple of days. But unfortunately I ran

1422
01:35:13,439 --> 01:35:16,680
to a situation where I was at
the hospital visiting my father who was ill

1423
01:35:16,760 --> 01:35:21,279
at the time, and I bumped
into a curb which caused them to run

1424
01:35:21,359 --> 01:35:26,520
my plate and then tried to say
my tears was illegal. I've been arrested

1425
01:35:26,640 --> 01:35:30,840
several times on the taser occasions where
the case has been dismissed. But for

1426
01:35:30,960 --> 01:35:34,439
the suspended license, totally my fault
and went on up to that because that

1427
01:35:34,680 --> 01:35:38,840
was just me not thinking here of
my responsibilities. That was due to because

1428
01:35:39,359 --> 01:35:45,880
I had missed traffic court which caused
my license to be suspended. So that

1429
01:35:45,079 --> 01:35:48,800
is being handled, and you know
there's a lot of rumors, are there.

1430
01:35:49,079 --> 01:35:54,920
Yeah, not to justify, right, not to justify it all.

1431
01:35:55,159 --> 01:35:57,920
What I was gonna say is not
to justify. But I have had the

1432
01:35:58,000 --> 01:36:01,520
same thing when I was young where
I missed the court date or something that

1433
01:36:01,560 --> 01:36:05,039
my license was suspended. I think
I drove around once and got pulled over.

1434
01:36:05,520 --> 01:36:09,720
I think I was married and had
two kids in the back of the

1435
01:36:09,800 --> 01:36:15,520
car and I was told your licensemen
suspended you you can't drive, So I

1436
01:36:15,640 --> 01:36:20,479
had to switch seats and become a
passenger and let somebody else drive, or

1437
01:36:20,560 --> 01:36:25,000
they were towing the car there,
you know, and I had car seats

1438
01:36:25,039 --> 01:36:29,840
and everything, and and so my
point to bringing that up is this does

1439
01:36:30,000 --> 01:36:33,279
happen to people, to anybody,
anybody, and you got to stay on

1440
01:36:33,359 --> 01:36:35,720
top of it. There's no real
excuse, right, Jeffrey, I've been

1441
01:36:35,800 --> 01:36:42,159
there exactly right, and that was
stal of my fault for just being irresponsible.

1442
01:36:42,760 --> 01:36:45,279
But that does matters to be handled
because obviously, you know, driving

1443
01:36:45,439 --> 01:36:46,920
is my job. Like I grabbed
a news stories, so I want to

1444
01:36:46,960 --> 01:36:50,600
make sure that this is handled and
nobody can have an excuse to arrest me

1445
01:36:51,520 --> 01:36:57,000
for the taser thing. Very unnecessary
to take my pager and then my mate

1446
01:36:57,039 --> 01:37:00,079
and my pocket knife. Then to
try to bring up some previous things that

1447
01:37:00,199 --> 01:37:03,720
have been handled in court already.
Uh, that was inappropriate for the u

1448
01:37:03,800 --> 01:37:06,560
of R. Public Safety to even
bring that up and do what they do.

1449
01:37:08,199 --> 01:37:10,399
Uh, so they may get the
cruiser and all that stuff. And

1450
01:37:10,920 --> 01:37:15,399
I mean it is what it is, you know, the taser thing.

1451
01:37:15,479 --> 01:37:17,199
It will be dismissing core. It
was already told to me. Uh,

1452
01:37:17,520 --> 01:37:21,680
that was inappropriate. That was very
incorporate and wrong. But hey, you

1453
01:37:21,760 --> 01:37:24,920
know, we are not going to
make excuses. I still have a job

1454
01:37:24,960 --> 01:37:28,000
to get done and I'm still out
here reporting in the community, and that's

1455
01:37:28,079 --> 01:37:30,920
just that, you know. All
right, Now, let's let's switch away

1456
01:37:30,960 --> 01:37:33,720
from our community and let's talk about
this P. Diddy situation, because there's

1457
01:37:33,720 --> 01:37:40,159
a lot of people saying many many
things, uh like almost a sex slavery

1458
01:37:40,359 --> 01:37:45,439
with some women, yes, of
homosexuality. There's a guy who was on

1459
01:37:45,560 --> 01:37:49,439
TikTok who said he was at Diddy
and he his rap career was blown up

1460
01:37:49,439 --> 01:37:53,319
and he wanted to leave Bad Boy
Records, and he was at a party

1461
01:37:53,319 --> 01:37:55,560
and he woke up and he felt
like a shoe had been shoved up his

1462
01:37:55,680 --> 01:37:59,399
butt, and uh, he says
to did he a listen? I want

1463
01:37:59,399 --> 01:38:01,279
to leave? And did? He
puts on a big screen and there is

1464
01:38:01,520 --> 01:38:08,840
basically this guy roofed and being anally
raped. I'm sorry to be so graphic,

1465
01:38:08,960 --> 01:38:14,359
but the guys. Yeah. So
Diddy has had several allegations over the

1466
01:38:14,479 --> 01:38:16,760
years, over at least the last
three years, he's avigations And now I'm

1467
01:38:16,760 --> 01:38:19,920
mind you, he just had a
civil wark case where a woman said he

1468
01:38:20,079 --> 01:38:25,880
was basically raped yea, and I
think she did win that case. Now,

1469
01:38:26,279 --> 01:38:30,560
the fans have gotten and rated nearly
every single property that did he owned

1470
01:38:30,880 --> 01:38:33,680
just a few days ago, including
Florida and New York City, and they

1471
01:38:33,720 --> 01:38:40,920
did it all at the same time. Now, now with that being said,

1472
01:38:41,359 --> 01:38:44,680
I'm not sure if he's in custody
at this time. There is rumors

1473
01:38:44,680 --> 01:38:48,399
of him going around the city saying
that he is in custody. That is

1474
01:38:48,720 --> 01:38:53,079
not the case. There has been
no public records of him being taken into

1475
01:38:53,239 --> 01:38:57,960
custody. But what I can tell
you is that there are several people who

1476
01:38:58,000 --> 01:39:01,039
have come forward and say that they
have been sexually assaulted. And even he

1477
01:39:01,159 --> 01:39:04,079
said it in this video slickly.
He said, quote unquote, you know,

1478
01:39:04,159 --> 01:39:08,680
there's a lot of sexual things in
the music industry. He said that

1479
01:39:08,800 --> 01:39:11,319
in one of his videos in an
interview that he did about two years ago.

1480
01:39:11,479 --> 01:39:15,840
So these are serious allegations, and
the fads do not come in unless

1481
01:39:15,880 --> 01:39:18,920
they have enough evidence. So at
this point they probably do have enough evidence

1482
01:39:18,960 --> 01:39:24,720
to go ahead and take Diddy into
custody. There's also a young person who

1483
01:39:24,880 --> 01:39:28,600
used to play for Syracuse a University
who was also taken in custody. He

1484
01:39:28,760 --> 01:39:32,000
was then bled out with hearing by
Diddy that has not had have enough evidence

1485
01:39:32,039 --> 01:39:34,520
to confirm that at this time,
but we're hearing about that as well.

1486
01:39:34,600 --> 01:39:39,840
So this is all all a lot
of rumors, but the fads have not

1487
01:39:40,000 --> 01:39:44,720
released what they are actually looking for
in dds. That's something that I'm interested

1488
01:39:44,800 --> 01:39:46,520
in looking into and what they were
actually looking for, because there's a lot

1489
01:39:46,560 --> 01:39:50,199
of things about him sex trafficking kids. Neighbors have come out and said they

1490
01:39:51,279 --> 01:39:56,079
I mean, it's a huge case
and I think he definitely would be charged

1491
01:39:56,279 --> 01:40:00,000
in the coming days a charge.
But then if he's in Barbuda, where

1492
01:40:00,239 --> 01:40:05,560
we're totally is and they can't extradite
him back from that province or that state,

1493
01:40:08,479 --> 01:40:12,520
well, the Fat's gonna work.
The Feds listen that you can't hide

1494
01:40:12,560 --> 01:40:15,279
from the fests. They're gonna work, so you know they're gonna work and

1495
01:40:15,359 --> 01:40:17,439
getting him back here. I'm pretty
sure that he will be extradited in some

1496
01:40:17,560 --> 01:40:19,960
type of way or for him rather
he comes back on his own, but

1497
01:40:20,039 --> 01:40:25,520
he he can't run from the Fed
that long and he's probably just getting the

1498
01:40:25,560 --> 01:40:29,359
thing together. He did sell off
all of his shares from his UH company

1499
01:40:29,399 --> 01:40:30,680
that he was a part of he
did sell that, and so this is

1500
01:40:30,680 --> 01:40:33,279
all looking suspicious, you know what
I mean, what happens to Sea Rock,

1501
01:40:33,359 --> 01:40:40,479
isn't it him? That's voyeah.
Yeah, So he's like selling off

1502
01:40:41,319 --> 01:40:44,800
and it's becoming suspicious. I don't
know if he's getting his legal money ready

1503
01:40:44,920 --> 01:40:47,039
or getting ready to be taking into
custody, but it's very suspicious in these

1504
01:40:47,079 --> 01:40:53,199
allegations sexual trafficking. Said something,
and I had to say, but he's

1505
01:40:53,199 --> 01:40:55,760
looking like the black Epstein at this
point. He's definitely looking at the black

1506
01:40:56,079 --> 01:41:00,399
all right. So you bring that
up because we hear different connections of things,

1507
01:41:00,520 --> 01:41:05,760
right, we hear connections of uh, Jamie Fox and is there something

1508
01:41:05,840 --> 01:41:10,880
there? There was another connection with
somebody else that I had heard of a

1509
01:41:11,000 --> 01:41:15,159
case where I'm like, you know, I'm not sure about any of that

1510
01:41:15,239 --> 01:41:20,960
stuff. Yeah, I think you're
I think this is almost similar to just

1511
01:41:21,119 --> 01:41:26,760
like ee case. I think it's
very similar, and I'm not letting go.

1512
01:41:30,000 --> 01:41:33,000
Yeah. I wonder if he's ever
been to Epstein Island himself. Do

1513
01:41:33,119 --> 01:41:36,680
we have any record of that,
because I mean, if that's the kind

1514
01:41:36,720 --> 01:41:42,079
of creepiness. He was into birds
of a feather, right, I did

1515
01:41:42,239 --> 01:41:45,439
hear that they did communicate. There's
also pictures of Epstein out there, so

1516
01:41:45,960 --> 01:41:50,439
I mean they could have communicated about
some things, which is also very interesting.

1517
01:41:50,720 --> 01:41:53,960
Yeah, we're gonna say that.
Well, there's there's uh, there's

1518
01:41:53,960 --> 01:41:56,760
a guy named Dom Luker. I
don't know if you follow him Jeffrey on

1519
01:41:56,840 --> 01:42:00,640
Twitter. He's considered a breaker of
narratives. A lot of stuff he has

1520
01:42:00,720 --> 01:42:04,600
reported has actually surfaced. And one
of the things that it's surfaced, there's

1521
01:42:04,640 --> 01:42:10,720
a lawsuit out there against the CEO
of Universal Music Group, Lucian Grange,

1522
01:42:10,920 --> 01:42:14,439
considered the most powerful man of music. He's named as an accomplice in the

1523
01:42:14,520 --> 01:42:19,359
Ditty sex trafficking lawsuit for leged claims
aiding a betting and including Puffy to run

1524
01:42:19,399 --> 01:42:25,760
a sex trafficking ring and like the
details go there. Then he also talks

1525
01:42:25,800 --> 01:42:31,720
about you mentioned Fitty Sent earlier and
how Fitty Sent is actually trying to suiting

1526
01:42:31,800 --> 01:42:36,840
a custody of his kid back because
his ex has some type of connections to

1527
01:42:36,960 --> 01:42:42,039
Ditty as well, Like Fitty Scent
can't stand did he No, he can't.

1528
01:42:42,199 --> 01:42:45,039
He hates him. Well, he
talked about he's at some party and

1529
01:42:45,119 --> 01:42:47,399
he came up to him and he's
like, hey, we should go shopping.

1530
01:42:47,479 --> 01:42:54,800
Sometimes he's like shop shopping yeah yeah, yeah, with trying some outfits.

1531
01:42:55,039 --> 01:42:58,119
It's funny. Yeah, Fitty sent
is seeking sole custody of his ex,

1532
01:42:58,840 --> 01:43:02,199
his ex's son, he and his
exist son, Dafty Joy's son because

1533
01:43:03,119 --> 01:43:08,439
he she is named as a sex
worker and did he's lawsuit or whatever.

1534
01:43:09,039 --> 01:43:11,680
So, I mean it's like,
it's just true. How big a story

1535
01:43:11,800 --> 01:43:14,520
is this in And I Am going
to say it this way, Jeffrey in

1536
01:43:14,560 --> 01:43:16,479
the black community, I mean we
we you know, there's a there's a

1537
01:43:16,520 --> 01:43:23,079
company now that has the Black News
Network. Uh so I'm just wondering this

1538
01:43:23,199 --> 01:43:28,319
is a big deal. As you're
saying he's the black Epstein. I think

1539
01:43:28,399 --> 01:43:30,800
so. I mean, these are
any serious allegations, I mean, there's

1540
01:43:30,800 --> 01:43:33,000
not gonna be this many allegations and
not none of them are true. I

1541
01:43:33,079 --> 01:43:36,840
mean there are people who come victims, and mind you, he just lost

1542
01:43:36,880 --> 01:43:40,840
and laws to a couple of years
ago from the young lady who claimed that

1543
01:43:41,239 --> 01:43:45,039
he raped her. That serious.
Oh they settled it really quick? Yeah,

1544
01:43:45,119 --> 01:43:47,520
like was it wasn't there something recently
where it was like all of a

1545
01:43:47,560 --> 01:43:51,600
sudden it evaporated, Like they settled
immediately. So as the accusations came out,

1546
01:43:56,279 --> 01:43:59,800
did it again? There there was
a recent lawsuit where he was accused

1547
01:43:59,800 --> 01:44:03,880
of so and the loss is immediately
like I said, like it was a

1548
01:44:03,960 --> 01:44:09,920
lady who had been raped. Yeah, well, we'll see where all this

1549
01:44:10,039 --> 01:44:14,399
goes. But it's uh, it's
certainly as you're saying, Jeffrey, right,

1550
01:44:14,560 --> 01:44:17,399
you can't have all these accusations and
nothing's going on. Something's going on,

1551
01:44:17,520 --> 01:44:21,119
and there's there's too much. There's
too much stuff. But do you

1552
01:44:23,880 --> 01:44:27,880
do you think he's in some way
I don't want to say responsible, but

1553
01:44:28,520 --> 01:44:32,199
in some way involved in Jamie Fox
because that's another one I'm hearing when Jamie

1554
01:44:32,199 --> 01:44:36,119
went up in the hospital with it. So I'm not going to say that

1555
01:44:36,119 --> 01:44:40,119
one because I don't have enough proup
revenue. Yeah right, right, But

1556
01:44:40,239 --> 01:44:44,319
those are the rumors you're hearing those
as well. Those are rumors. I'm

1557
01:44:44,359 --> 01:44:46,119
hearing those rumors, but I don't
know if there's enough group revenue for those

1558
01:44:46,159 --> 01:44:50,560
ones. Yeah all right, But
I ask this question though, of all

1559
01:44:50,600 --> 01:44:56,159
the people in rap music, right, did he all of his songs?

1560
01:44:56,239 --> 01:44:59,760
Nobody looks at Diddy and goes,
yeah, man, that's an awesome rapper.

1561
01:45:00,079 --> 01:45:01,640
He's great he's fantastic or well,
I thought he was more of a

1562
01:45:01,840 --> 01:45:04,239
He is more of a producer.
But it's like all this stuff that he

1563
01:45:04,359 --> 01:45:09,800
produces is off other people's music,
Like he can't come up with an original

1564
01:45:09,840 --> 01:45:12,760
tune on his own. He's got
a like sample, Well, everybody throw

1565
01:45:12,800 --> 01:45:15,520
that on there now too, because
there's all these other things. I mean,

1566
01:45:15,560 --> 01:45:17,720
I gotta understand, like what makes
it? What? What don't?

1567
01:45:17,800 --> 01:45:20,560
Makes him so high and mighty?
I don't get it, j Z.

1568
01:45:20,800 --> 01:45:24,479
I get I'm not a fan of
his either, But did he really?

1569
01:45:24,600 --> 01:45:27,079
It's like I always thought he was
just like a pretender. What do you

1570
01:45:27,199 --> 01:45:29,560
what do you say to that,
Jeffrey? Do you think he's a pretender?

1571
01:45:30,000 --> 01:45:32,720
Well? I think I always thought
did he was suspicious because the way

1572
01:45:33,039 --> 01:45:35,640
I mean, even looking at the
Biggie King, I mean, all that

1573
01:45:35,840 --> 01:45:41,039
is just suspicious. And a lot
of people to that community already didn't trust

1574
01:45:41,119 --> 01:45:44,399
him. I mean, his reputation
wasn't good already. He was no for

1575
01:45:44,520 --> 01:45:49,479
scanning and the inner frang. Okay, right, interesting, Well I appreciate

1576
01:45:49,520 --> 01:45:51,680
you giving us some time tonight.
Do you have a nice meal with the

1577
01:45:51,760 --> 01:45:58,119
fam? Yeah? I had a
delicious meal, and I just came from

1578
01:45:58,199 --> 01:46:03,279
Niagara Falls. So yeah, did
you talk about he's Oh, he's at

1579
01:46:03,319 --> 01:46:06,880
the hospital. He's doing well.
Now he has some things that he just

1580
01:46:06,960 --> 01:46:14,880
got medications. But did you guys
talk about the bomb investigation downtown already?

1581
01:46:15,079 --> 01:46:17,279
Yeah? There was I forgot where
we have not? Why don't you feel

1582
01:46:17,319 --> 01:46:20,520
us? You know what? And
since you're on here News of the Day

1583
01:46:20,600 --> 01:46:24,039
with you and Danny, because I
missed out on a couple of things,

1584
01:46:24,079 --> 01:46:28,520
tell us about the bomb. So
the bomb situation, the FBI didn't release

1585
01:46:28,600 --> 01:46:30,880
you know, the FBI really doesn't
release much information, but we do know

1586
01:46:31,079 --> 01:46:36,479
that around this afternoon they shut down
those roads in Q fifteen, industry was

1587
01:46:36,600 --> 01:46:45,560
evacuated and they they haven't released much
information, which is interesting. Uh and

1588
01:46:45,640 --> 01:46:49,399
I have a shock tem getting else. But they haven't released much information.

1589
01:46:49,560 --> 01:46:55,760
No, suspects are in custody and
it has reopened to the public. So

1590
01:46:55,920 --> 01:46:59,920
this is interesting. Yeah, but
they did was it a bomb stair?

1591
01:47:00,159 --> 01:47:03,960
You think just a scare? I
mean they had a lot of equipment out

1592
01:47:03,960 --> 01:47:06,359
there. They had a warrn,
so that's what it was. They had

1593
01:47:06,359 --> 01:47:12,720
a ordered warr and so that's that's
where it gets interesting, Like do they

1594
01:47:12,840 --> 01:47:15,880
know this for a while somebody you
know, So this takes a little bit

1595
01:47:15,920 --> 01:47:19,199
talent to get a warrn. Yeah, all right, so we don't know

1596
01:47:19,319 --> 01:47:25,600
much about that. But that was
around the Blue Cross Arena area. No,

1597
01:47:25,960 --> 01:47:30,239
it was industry, Okay, a
little further down. Uh and then

1598
01:47:30,880 --> 01:47:34,000
tell talk to me about because I
did not pay attention to this, but

1599
01:47:34,079 --> 01:47:39,600
Danny brought it up. Uh.

01:47:57,000 --> 01:48:00,039
so did they get anything? I
mean, I it sounds like they got

1604
01:48:00,079 --> 01:48:04,319
the person pretty quickly. Then let
me read the email for you. Actually

1605
01:48:04,359 --> 01:48:08,119
while I'm here, they see I
because I just was looking at it not

1606
01:48:08,159 --> 01:48:12,199
too long ago. Hold on one
second, going through my emails. Okay,

1607
01:48:12,760 --> 01:48:18,359
parking there it is, Okay,
So it says just around today and

1608
01:48:18,600 --> 01:48:23,000
Goodman textant officers responding to the area
of Cover Road and the sabine for a

1609
01:48:23,119 --> 01:48:26,880
board of a robbery. But officers
spoke to the victim, which is a

1610
01:48:27,159 --> 01:48:30,840
un United States Postal service carrier,
she stated, as he was confronted by

1611
01:48:30,880 --> 01:48:35,600
a male who then had his hand
in his coat as he had a weapon.

1612
01:48:35,720 --> 01:48:40,520
He was fearing a drop all the
mail and then ran off. He

1613
01:48:40,760 --> 01:48:45,359
was then fronted by other citizens who
then said he flat on foot. He

1614
01:48:45,520 --> 01:48:48,960
was then taking scussody the Rochester police
officers and no one was injured. Hot,

1615
01:48:49,039 --> 01:48:53,960
Now, how how do these other
citizens step in? That's that's some

1616
01:48:54,079 --> 01:48:56,680
balls, yeah, right, because
you don't know, you don't know,

1617
01:48:56,920 --> 01:48:59,119
no, right, you kind of
put yourself on risk, you know what

1618
01:48:59,159 --> 01:49:02,319
they're carrying a lot of people,
a lot of people are properting with police.

1619
01:49:02,359 --> 01:49:05,119
And when you have the community who
was property in the pleee, a

1620
01:49:05,159 --> 01:49:10,399
community becomes much safer, Yes,
And so that's something that you really don't

1621
01:49:10,439 --> 01:49:15,520
see much in the inner city,
right, And so that I'm I'm actually

1622
01:49:15,600 --> 01:49:18,079
surprised and I'm actually excited that this
is this has happening in the suspect was

1631
01:49:58,680 --> 01:50:01,439
of like the Dinny thing is.
It's really sort of interesting to me in

1632
01:50:01,680 --> 01:50:08,319
because, uh, you're hearing a
lot of the you know, homosexual references

1633
01:50:08,399 --> 01:50:12,560
made towards him, And I say
it that way because it's really frowned upon.

1634
01:50:13,000 --> 01:50:15,800
He's still in the black community.
Yeah, and there's talks about him

1635
01:50:15,840 --> 01:50:19,520
being tight with TD Jakes, the
black minister who's also been caught you know

1636
01:50:20,680 --> 01:50:23,960

a lot of ties to this. And

when there's i mean the phraser when
they're smoke, there's fire, yeah,

1639
01:50:29,319 --> 01:50:35,359
yeah, apparently. Yeah. It's
just somebody showed Tom Brady at a news

1640
01:50:35,399 --> 01:50:39,479
conference, like looking over and smiling
as somebody walks in, and they go,

1641
01:50:39,720 --> 01:50:45,319

Danny why don't we, Uh, what

1643
01:50:48,640 --> 01:50:51,800

1644
01:50:51,840 --> 01:50:55,920
there anything else that we've missed?
No, not really really. It's opening

1645
01:50:56,000 --> 01:50:59,039
day of baseball season today. Your
Yankees came back. Yeah, a lot

1646
01:50:59,079 --> 01:51:02,680
of stuff going on, all right, give me your Danny has podcast stitutional

1647
01:51:02,720 --> 01:51:05,479
amendments like Bill Maher's new rules.
Yes, I know he rips off Bill

1648
01:51:05,479 --> 01:51:09,840
Marshon. Yes so, but these
aren't though, these are your thoughts,

1649
01:51:09,960 --> 01:51:13,039
these are your things, and so
we like to use. It's a couple.

1650
01:51:13,159 --> 01:51:15,199
Yes, it's the couple this week. Okay, here when I go

1651
01:51:15,279 --> 01:51:17,319
to the gymp Sorry, this is
a sports one. Yeah. So,

1652
01:51:17,720 --> 01:51:21,000
the NFL draft's coming up in less
than a month. The NFL drafts come

1653
01:51:21,119 --> 01:51:24,640
up right now. As of right
now, the Buffalo Bills have eleven picks

1654
01:51:25,039 --> 01:51:29,439
right now, a lot of quarterbacks
are jockeying for position on to according to

1655
01:51:29,479 --> 01:51:33,039
the media, on where they'll be
drafted. Right. But podcaststitutional amendment.

1656
01:51:33,720 --> 01:51:36,920
If you want to clare yourself any
type of NFL draft expert when you're in

1657
01:51:36,960 --> 01:51:42,079
the media you're actually working for an
NFL team, you need to take a

1658
01:51:42,239 --> 01:51:45,439
one question lie detector test, and
that is this. Did you believe in

1659
01:51:45,560 --> 01:51:49,279
josh Allen before the twenty eighteen draft
if you failed the test? No,

1660
01:51:49,479 --> 01:51:54,760
But the answer is no, you
do not get to participate at any NFL

1661
01:51:54,880 --> 01:51:57,960
draft talks. And I will start
with myself right there, because I did

1662
01:51:58,039 --> 01:52:00,319
not believe in Joshua Patrick Allen.
But he said we took the wrong job.

1663
01:52:00,479 --> 01:52:04,920
The only person, the only two
people actually who publicly said came out

1664
01:52:04,920 --> 01:52:09,199
in defense of Josh Allen or mel
Kiper Junior, who's gotten a lot of

1665
01:52:09,279 --> 01:52:13,119
crap over the years for his draft
picks. Know he was the original godfather

1666
01:52:13,279 --> 01:52:18,159
of draft nicking and Chris Simms NBC
Sports Gonna. He believed in josh Allen

1667
01:52:18,640 --> 01:52:23,039
quite a bit. And he also
believed the Lamar Jackson too, the two

1668
01:52:23,159 --> 01:52:28,640
quarterbacks, they were the best in
that draft. So a podcastitutional amendment due

1669
01:52:28,680 --> 01:52:31,640
to all the bad news that's happening
in this area or maybe across America.

1670
01:52:31,760 --> 01:52:35,680
But now a mailman was roughed up
today, A mailman, folks. So

1671
01:52:38,680 --> 01:52:42,199
yeah, so forget what I said
last week about giving Monroe County back to

1672
01:52:42,239 --> 01:52:45,680
the Native America. I have a
better idea. Let's make sure Iff Baxter,

1673
01:52:45,880 --> 01:52:49,119
King of Monroe, county. Let
him rule over us as an honorable

1674
01:52:49,199 --> 01:52:53,880
king. Under one condition. He
has to fulfill his term. In other

1675
01:52:53,920 --> 01:52:56,680
words, he can't just leave after
two years to run for lieutenant governor.

1676
01:52:57,000 --> 01:53:00,880
If you know, you know right? Very good is that? Those are

1677
01:53:00,920 --> 01:53:04,399
my podcast of toocial amendments. Have
a wonderful Easter. He has risen.

1678
