Speaker 1: I'm so glad that most of you were out yesterday
Speaker 1: for a national holiday because the show that we did
Speaker 1: yesterday was not Hall of Fame worthy.
Speaker 2: Oh and I don't think this one's going to be
Speaker 2: much better.
Speaker 1: Well, I will say this tick higher, just to tick higher.
Speaker 2: We are we're dragging ass still and mentally even not
Speaker 2: that we were mental giants to begin with, but we're
Speaker 2: not all there. We're not back to where we were.
Speaker 2: And it hit me on the way home yesterday. We
Speaker 2: had Kenny Wayne Shephard on that was that was one
Speaker 2: good part of the show.
Speaker 1: Was one that was the only.
Speaker 2: Good part of the show.
Speaker 1: Yeah, But.
Speaker 2: Because I was not thinking straight, I meant to add
Speaker 2: because Mel Gibson, his daughter married Kenny Wayne Shepherd and
Speaker 2: they've been married for years and years and years. So
Speaker 2: I wanted to ask him about Mel Gibson as a
Speaker 2: father in law, I bet And I wanted to say, Hey,
Speaker 2: do you guys ever go and see your father in
Speaker 2: law Mel Gibson and take the grandkids? And when you
Speaker 2: leave and go home, does he ever call you and
Speaker 2: go could be by my family?
Speaker 1: I bet you that's an intense father in law.
Speaker 2: Can you imagine? No, I couldn't either.
Speaker 1: Oh boy, I didn't know that. Thanks for dropping the
Speaker 1: ball on that, because that had been a great addition
Speaker 1: to the interview. The interview was great.
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, you know that was like my I was
Speaker 2: getting ready to ask and you did that. Let me
Speaker 2: ask one more question, and I forgot to ask it.
Speaker 1: Oh I'm sorry. It was my fault. Well is that?
Speaker 1: Did you see how he did that? Just it's he forgot,
Speaker 1: But it's my fault. He forgot, he's deflecting response.
Speaker 2: No listen, no no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
Speaker 2: no listen. When journalists, we never ever point fingers when
Speaker 2: a misteak is made. But yes, it was your fault.
Speaker 1: When you point fingers in people, there's three fingers pointing
Speaker 1: back at you. There's stuff you tell your seven year
Speaker 1: old that you never repeat again. And remember when you
Speaker 1: pointed somebody.
Speaker 2: What's the THUMBM doing? Point at me? What's your thumb?
Speaker 1: Do? Wait a minute? Pointing?
Speaker 2: Okay, so you got.
Speaker 1: Two three, I got three pointing at me and you.
Speaker 2: Got two pointing me your thumb and your Yeah, I
Speaker 2: guess so.
Speaker 1: Right, all right, I don't know if either one of
Speaker 1: you all saw that darn plane crash last night. I
Speaker 1: don't know what's going on. It's the third plane crash
Speaker 1: in like three weeks. It's crazy.
Speaker 2: I don't think I'm going to Mexico this year. That
Speaker 2: didn't get this crap straight in out look.
Speaker 1: Obviously we're not aviators, but that thing seemed like it
Speaker 1: was coming out of the sky pretty quickly and it
Speaker 1: belly flopped onto the runway. It is an absolute miracle
Speaker 1: of God what happened yesterday on that tarmac. I mean
Speaker 1: it belly flopped, burst into flames, flipped over, and no
Speaker 1: one was injured. Like what the hell of a story
Speaker 1: wouldn't It's crazy?
Speaker 2: So what do you do? What's what's pro After you
Speaker 2: survived like that? Do you go straight to the airport bar?
Speaker 1: Yes, of course, I don't care if you're sober for
Speaker 1: twenty years, God say go get a drink.
Speaker 2: First thing you do is attorney.
Speaker 1: Didn't say that.
Speaker 2: The first thing you do is call an attorney.
Speaker 1: No, yeah, because you grab your neck right.
Speaker 2: And you call an attorney and then you go to
Speaker 2: the bar. And so they meet me the airport bar,
Speaker 2: neck and back. Oh yeah, you grab both of them.
Speaker 1: Thank you. But the people, the people that were getting
Speaker 1: that were still on the plane waiting to get off,
Speaker 1: because I mean I'd have been I'd have helped whoever
Speaker 1: couldn't get out, because I didn't even think about the
Speaker 1: weight of yourself because you were upside down. The guy
Speaker 1: that was talking said, we hit. We knew it was bad,
Speaker 1: and the next thing you know, you don't know because
Speaker 1: you're just upside down now and now the ceiling is
Speaker 1: the floor. But the weight of your own body on
Speaker 1: the belt, like, that's not going to be easy to
Speaker 1: get unbuckled, right, so you got to deal with that.
Speaker 1: And he goes, once that happens.
Speaker 2: Well, wait a minute, no, wait, wait a minute, those
Speaker 2: seat belts you just pull that lever to the side
Speaker 2: that dislodges.
Speaker 1: Okay, I've never done it, so I'm going to assume
Speaker 1: it's a little difficult.
Speaker 2: Well, in airplane crash school, we had that at all, right,
Speaker 2: we did what we did. It was I had it
Speaker 2: after English and before mathematics, and we used to do that.
Speaker 2: And even in the eighties, those seat belts we could release.
Speaker 1: Uh, But the people that pulled their phones out and
Speaker 1: started to video, like, who are you keep your phone
Speaker 1: in your pocket and get your ass off the plane
Speaker 1: because it's on fire.
Speaker 2: Wes Henderson's made a post yesterday. Wes Henderson from True
Speaker 2: Story Bourbon He posted yesterday and go, hey, just so
Speaker 2: you know, if if I'm ever in a plane crash
Speaker 2: and that happens, and you're in front of me and
Speaker 2: you're videoing or getting your luggage out of the overhead,
Speaker 2: I'm running the blank over you.
Speaker 1: I agree with that, of course absolutely.
Speaker 3: I'll say this. I'm already afraid of flying as it is.
Speaker 3: I'n't been on a plane in at least fifteen years,
Speaker 3: and everything that's happened so far in twenty twenty five
Speaker 3: has not done anything to help coddle that.
Speaker 2: No, it's been all this has happened in like a
Speaker 2: span of what four weeks.
Speaker 1: Okay, the basic design of an airplane hasn't changed. Now,
Speaker 1: you can put as many computers on there as you want,
Speaker 1: right right, The basic design of thrust, the wings, the flaps,
Speaker 1: that is all the same concepts for the last eighty years.
Speaker 1: Like that, those engineering concepts have not changed. It goes
Speaker 1: still basic stuff.
Speaker 2: It goes right back to the very first one with
Speaker 2: Wilbur and Orville Bread and Backer with just the two wings.
Speaker 2: The design has not changed.
Speaker 1: They turned in their popcorn makers and do it. They
Speaker 1: did into an airplane.
Speaker 2: Well, they sold their popcorn business. Yeah, and then Orville
Speaker 2: bread Brocker got it back.
Speaker 1: But I don't discount your fear of that because you're
Speaker 1: just a smart person. You're like, well, this is basic stuff.
Speaker 3: Why put your life in God's hands if you will,
Speaker 3: because that's what you're doing. You have zero control once
Speaker 3: you go into the airport and give your bags away
Speaker 3: and go through TSA.
Speaker 1: No, that's true. No, that's true. You have, yes, but
Speaker 1: it's still a thousand times safer than getting the car
Speaker 1: and driving. It's still a thousand times true.
Speaker 3: But I've heard that a million times.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but when you look at the odds of how
Speaker 2: many planes have taken off daily annually and how many
Speaker 2: the amount of incidents, it's I mean, it's a miracle.
Speaker 1: Well the miracle was in the eighties. Let's just figure
Speaker 1: it out. Because those guys were drunk, coked up, Like
Speaker 1: how many I mean the eighties were party central. How
Speaker 1: many of these pilots and stewardesses or flight attendants.
Speaker 2: I wish And there was a time, there was a
Speaker 2: time where United Parcel Service would take their seven to
Speaker 2: twenty sevens. Yeah, and they would install seats in them
Speaker 2: and run them for commercial flight.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, that lasted very short period of time.
Speaker 2: But I got to tell you I never felt safer
Speaker 2: than I did when I flew on a UPS personnel flight. Yeah,
Speaker 2: because I worked at UPS. And let me tell you,
Speaker 2: if there's just one minor, one minor little thing, unload
Speaker 2: the hoe down plane, Let's get it to another one.
Speaker 2: They're second to none when it comes to prevent a maintenance.
Speaker 1: Let's go about with another disaster. And again, thoughts and
Speaker 1: prayers everybody on that plane. But I mean this, watch
Speaker 1: the video and go, that's a miracle. No one was killed,
Speaker 1: much less really injured. They were like, yeah, I sent
Speaker 1: a couple of people to the hospital, but nothing with serious,
Speaker 1: nothing but sprains and stuff. That's crazy, all right. So
Speaker 1: the second thing is these floodings. I don't know if
Speaker 1: you're following eastern Kentucky. So the temperatures are insane, and
Speaker 1: fourteen deaths in Kentucky alone and swept away. You're watching
Speaker 1: video of these mudslides, and these whole little towns, these
Speaker 1: you know, and towns are like these streets. I just
Speaker 1: pull up and there's businesses on the street. The back
Speaker 1: half of it is just gone. It's crazy. This is
Speaker 1: the same area where twenty eighteen. Yeah, it's just six
Speaker 1: or seven years ago man was wiped out. Remember Caliperry
Speaker 1: was doing all those telethons and stuff. It's just like
Speaker 1: that wasn't too long ago. It's crazy, and.
Speaker 2: Six years I could promise you not all the damage
Speaker 2: has been repaired.
Speaker 1: Since you know, no host towns disappeared and they don't
Speaker 1: come back.
Speaker 2: I will say that I always take sixty four and
Speaker 2: get off of the third Street ramp. Yeah, and I
Speaker 2: did this morning. It was jam packed. And the reason
Speaker 2: was jam packed is they have where you can't take
Speaker 2: a rite now.
Speaker 1: Uh yeah, so you have to go straight.
Speaker 2: You have to go straight. So I'm wondering if they're
Speaker 2: expecting the floodwaters to keep creeping up.
Speaker 1: Yeah, just be patient out there if you're stuck in
Speaker 1: all that. And I get it. There was a wreck
Speaker 1: on Waterston Express Fighter around Thereckaridge Lane exit and then
Speaker 1: they shut down the tails will exit. It was crazy.
Speaker 1: So I think they're opening all that up now, So
Speaker 1: just be patient, and we're sorry that you're you're stuck
Speaker 1: in all that. Today's a big day for me.
Speaker 2: Oh did you get like a Catholic People's Award at
Speaker 2: the Catholic People's Society last night.
Speaker 1: It was a good time.
Speaker 2: It looked fun.

Speaker 2: look look great.
Speaker 1: It was a fifteen priests there.
Speaker 2: Oh you didn't mention that. Oh well, now it's a party.
Speaker 1: The party with the priests. Yeah, today, do you cuss
Speaker 1: around the priest? The priest costs more than I depends
Speaker 1: on what Brandy, sir. I love all my priests. They're awesome. Okay,
Speaker 1: So I'm today, I get my I get my toto

Speaker 1: Metro councilwoman Donna Purvis is being accused of harassment after
Speaker 1: following an elderly constituent back to her apartment building in
Speaker 1: September after a heated verbal art altercation at city Hall.
Speaker 1: Months after the inter interaction, the woman has filed a
Speaker 1: police report an ethics complaint against Purvis, becoming the latest
Speaker 1: of a string of legal and ethics fights involving the councilwoman, wow,
Speaker 1: who represents much of Louisville's West End. In the six
Speaker 1: years she's been in the office, the Democrat has been
Speaker 1: sued for defamation by her former legislative assistant, racked up
Speaker 1: twenty thousand dollars in fines from a campaign finance violation,
Speaker 1: faced a lawsuit from a constituent who claims she got
Speaker 1: him fired, and received multiple ethics complaints, some of which
Speaker 1: are ongoing.
Speaker 2: Write down what I think her political affiliation is.
Speaker 1: I already said it, and I'm gonna slide it over there.
Speaker 1: I already said it. I already said it. Uh so uh.
Speaker 1: Metroal Council has been very boring for a little while. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they've ramped things up, all right. They had trial yesterday
Speaker 1: and they got this situation again that this is the
Speaker 1: story for WDRB that I was reading from. But Donna Purvis,
Speaker 1: they are they're they're heating things up on Metro Council.
Speaker 1: You take your eye, you know, you take your eye
Speaker 1: off them for a while, because Craig was doing a
Speaker 1: good job, right, Like Craig is doing a good job,
Speaker 1: and so you know, you don't look at the council
Speaker 1: Metro Council much. Well they you know, you always got
Speaker 1: to keep your folks, and we'll update you on the
Speaker 1: Donna Privosse situation. Metro Council.
Speaker 2: Well, not local lawmakers, but a lawmaker in Washington, state
Speaker 2: Representative Mary Foss. She sponsored House Bill one seven three nine.
Speaker 2: What's it for? Well established rules on how to self
Speaker 2: check check out in grocery stores. The state representative submitted
Speaker 2: the bill requiring no more than a maximum of fifteen
Speaker 2: items when you do the self checkout in store.
Speaker 1: Okay, time out?
Speaker 2: Okay.
Speaker 1: I read that headline, yeah, and then I thought, okay,
Speaker 1: because when you're in in the old days, there was
Speaker 1: always one express lane, and if somebody had more than
Speaker 1: ten items, then someone there was always someone ready to
Speaker 1: speak up, right, and they would say that's me have
Speaker 1: fifteen items and you're in the express lane. And and
Speaker 1: sometimes Johnny, you've experienced this. You you came to mic
Speaker 1: pretty quickly. I was.
Speaker 3: I mean, I was a child whenever this happened, but
Speaker 3: I remember being at the store with parents and seeing this.
Speaker 1: Yes, well, because some people will get if you have
Speaker 1: a six pack of gatorade, people are like, that's sixs
Speaker 1: that one item, that's one eye, that's one Okay, No,
Speaker 1: that's that's six uhas, No, that's one stack of binans.
Speaker 1: So when I read that headline, Dwight, I said, are
Speaker 1: they gonna start policing how many? But that's not the
Speaker 1: rule she wants. Mary Foss wants to do something different,
Speaker 1: which I agree with.
Speaker 2: Go ahead, I know I agree with it. I agree
Speaker 2: with it too. Yes, but it's it's you can have
Speaker 2: a maximum of fifteen items at the self checkout stores.
Speaker 2: Here's what I've never under stores, self checkout lines. Here's
Speaker 2: what I've never understood, though, Why not just calibrate these
Speaker 2: self checkout machines or after fifteen items it shuts down
Speaker 2: and go straight to total? You know what I mean?
Speaker 1: That's not a bad idea, right.
Speaker 2: So there you go and there's none of this well.
Speaker 1: You know, it's just it's a terrible idea. And I'll
Speaker 1: tell you why.
Speaker 2: Well, no, here's what you're gonna say you're gonna say
Speaker 2: they're gonna stop ring that up and start bringing the
Speaker 2: other one.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: No, then you got a guy like me yelling at him, okay,
Speaker 2: hey blankety blank. And then you got my wife her
Speaker 2: head down okay.
Speaker 1: Kroger our Kroger at Hubbard used to be the best.
Speaker 1: It's not anymore. It's it's just understaffed. And I get it.
Speaker 2: But that's every that's everything.
Speaker 1: I don't know that story. I will tell you that
Speaker 1: there are times that they don't have any people checking out.
Speaker 1: That not all self checkout. Right, So even if I'm like,
Speaker 1: if you have a family, you've got a cart and
Speaker 1: a half of food, you you've got to bag all this,
Speaker 1: try to bag it. And remember you run out of
Speaker 1: room at the area. You can't bag anymore. No. And
Speaker 1: then they were just like attendant is coming, attendant is coming.
Speaker 2: Oh they're not coming.
Speaker 1: It's like, oh great, I can't continue until somebody comes
Speaker 1: over and they swipe and do whatever. It is frustrating.
Speaker 1: And then they eliminated three of the checkout lanes and
Speaker 1: gave you the one long one where the thing goes
Speaker 1: goes where it goes down, right, Yeah, And if you
Speaker 1: don't put the item in the center of the.
Speaker 2: Oh, it's such damp. If it would just work right
Speaker 2: and be less of a pain in the ass to
Speaker 2: be fine. But sometimes I'll scan like four or five
Speaker 2: items and I'll say call for assistance and they'll come
Speaker 2: over them. They'll just after I wait for like three
Speaker 2: or four minutes, they'll come over and they'll can some
Speaker 2: kind of cold nickel.
Speaker 1: There you go, sir.
Speaker 2: And I'm like, whoa, whoa, whoa, what happened? If it's, oh, nothing,
Speaker 2: you just scanned too many items too fast.
Speaker 1: If it benefited me, I wouldn't mind. But you're charging
Speaker 1: me eight dollars for a bottle of ranch dressing and
Speaker 1: I still have to check out my own food. Now
Speaker 1: it feels like, look, if you self check out, we'll
Speaker 1: give you a ten percent discount, like over the top,
Speaker 1: like off the top. Then okay, I'm in.
Speaker 3: So you're anti self checkout.
Speaker 1: I am tired of checking my own food out and
Speaker 1: you're charging me triple what I paid two years ago.
Speaker 2: It'd be nice, it'd be nice to have the option,
Speaker 2: you know what I mean. But you go into a
Speaker 2: grocery store it would be a Saturday at noon, and
Speaker 2: you look and they're like, oh, well it's gonna be
Speaker 2: Saturday at noon, we might be quite busy. Better open
Speaker 2: two registers.
Speaker 3: Well, imagine today with the snow coming in.
Speaker 2: Oh, I know, I'm done. I was gonna ava.
Speaker 1: This isn't relatively a new thing. Self checkout didn't exist
Speaker 1: a couple of years ago. It was all you had
Speaker 1: to get in line and someone checked out your groceries.
Speaker 1: The self checkout came out. It was like, if you're
Speaker 1: in a hurry and only have one or two items,
Speaker 1: bag by bam doll. Oh now it is that's the
Speaker 1: way you check out. It's it's changed. There's been a shift,
Speaker 1: and I get the I get it's hard to hire people.
Speaker 2: Hey, here's one thing. In the off chance, in the
Speaker 2: off chance there happens to be a human being at
Speaker 2: my grocery store, you can actually go through the line
Speaker 2: and have them check you out. In the rare occasion
Speaker 2: that happens. Here's one thing I do hate though. They
Speaker 2: wring you up and they say, okay, you got six
Speaker 2: items there. Two of them were a carton of eggs.
Speaker 2: Your total is two hundred and thirty four dollars. Would
Speaker 2: you like to donate two dollars to such and such.
Speaker 2: I always say, oh, no, no, I don't want to,
Speaker 2: but you're more than welcome to take ten percent of
Speaker 2: my purchase and donate it. Because here's what they do.
Speaker 2: They say, oh, in front of everybody, hey, do you
Speaker 2: want to donate two dollars to such and such? And
Speaker 2: they take all that collection and then they take the
Speaker 2: tax right off on it.
Speaker 1: Correct. Just you know what, if you're really.
Speaker 2: Going to be generous, correct, just put a percentage of
Speaker 2: all proceeds.
Speaker 1: It started in gas stations. Remember, they would be like
Speaker 1: a little shamrock and you put yourn you can write
Speaker 1: your name on it, and they would hang it in
Speaker 1: the gas station and you're like, well, that's kind of
Speaker 1: need of of that. Does stop and go place to
Speaker 1: do that? And then you figure out, no, they're taking
Speaker 1: all that cash.
Speaker 2: And but they were satisfaction in that because I could
Speaker 2: write a dirty name correct and put it up there
Speaker 2: and there and there you would have this name that
Speaker 2: you know, two meetings.
Speaker 1: Something with Gilli cut Yeah, I get it. So they
Speaker 1: would require uh, they wanted she wants to change things.
Speaker 1: Go look, you guys, grocery stores have to step up.
Speaker 1: I'm with her but there's not a lot of competition,
Speaker 1: but just simply you you know, and I and I
Speaker 1: love my people at Kroger. Don't get me wrong, the
Speaker 1: people work at Kroger are awesome. They're never rude, They're
Speaker 1: fantastic people. But it's just they're overworked.
Speaker 3: I think you should go to Aldie. I know there's
Speaker 3: not a lot of those around here, but they so
Speaker 3: you don't even get bags at Aldie. You can buy
Speaker 3: bags of theirs, but they're reusable. You just put everything
Speaker 3: in the cart and load up yourself. Now, it's kind
Speaker 3: of a pain in the ass if you don't want
Speaker 3: to do that type of stuff. But there's a lot.
Speaker 3: It's a smaller store, and the workers have always been
Speaker 3: very friendly.
Speaker 2: If I could somehow inspect my produce online and Amazon
Speaker 2: had it, I'd never leave the house, you know what
Speaker 2: I mean. Like when we were sick, you know, doctor
Speaker 2: Whitney Jones says, here's what you need. You need this
Speaker 2: squeeze version of the netty pot to clear your sign
Speaker 2: as his xyz hopped on Amazon. It was there that afternoon. Correct,
Speaker 2: same thing with aspirin. I take eighty one milligram asper
Speaker 2: day I ran out eight Bucks right to my door.
Speaker 2: I wish I could do that with produce and protein
Speaker 2: and never ever y the house.
Speaker 1: I'm all for this law eh.
Speaker 2: If you're a fan of the Goonies and I have
Speaker 2: yet to see it, but it is in my queue.
Speaker 2: I finally found it on.
Speaker 1: It's a timeless classic.
Speaker 2: Is it really it is? Or is it gonna let
Speaker 2: me down?

Speaker 1: Good enough?
Speaker 2: Well there, Hawker, Ciddy hawker. Well, there's been rumors of
Speaker 2: a sequel to The Goonies going around for over a
Speaker 2: decade now, at least like it looks like it is coming.
Speaker 1: To question he don't please don't.
Speaker 2: Steven Spielberg has signed don't come on stop. Also, Chris Columbus,
Speaker 2: who wrote the original good.
Speaker 1: Leave it alone. It's perfect. Don't do a sequel because

Speaker 2: well he's fat.
Speaker 1: One to ten? How insecure are you? It's an eleven?

Speaker 2: Huh, I'm a Millennia. I got a call and excuse you,
Speaker 2: gen Z whatever.
Speaker 1: Wow, No, that's one of those you gotta pause and
Speaker 1: go Wowow.
Speaker 2: I will tell you this. I will tell you this.
Speaker 2: Last last week when we had the flu. I text
Speaker 2: my mom and I said, hey, Mom, I've got a
Speaker 2: fever and a flu am. I supposed to eat or not?
Speaker 2: And she text me back and she reminded what she
Speaker 2: always told me as a kid, Star of fever, feet
Speaker 2: of failure.
Speaker 1: Yeah right, that works, I know. Well yeah, let's tell
Speaker 1: you got where you are, buddy. Thank you. Okay, So
Speaker 1: what the hell are we talking about?
Speaker 2: The Goodies?
Speaker 1: I don't do the sequel? Come on, man, in their sixties.
Speaker 3: Everything's a sequel now, Adam Sandler, The Remaker is a
Speaker 3: sequel of Happy Gilmour they're doing.
Speaker 1: It's a remake or no what it's a sequence, a
Speaker 1: sequel everyone that's.
Speaker 3: An original in Hollywood.
Speaker 1: It'll it'll flop. I think it's on Netflix anyway.
Speaker 2: Here's what I understand is because look, you got all
Speaker 2: this crap television and there's really nothing out there. But
Speaker 2: then this guy Taylor Sheridan Yellowstone, Mayri of Kingstown, King
Speaker 2: of Tulsa, land Man everything. This guy touches his goat. No,
Speaker 2: so it could be done. It's just Hollywood's lazy.
Speaker 1: Here's the problem in lies. Here's the problem is because
Speaker 1: the nineteen nineties, again, social has shifted too much. You
Speaker 1: have the phone, social media, you're always in contact, there's
Speaker 1: the internet. You take away all that, and then these
Speaker 1: movies are hilarious because you went to the theater with
Speaker 1: your buddies and you laughed and it was just funny
Speaker 1: because you didn't see anything like that. You had to
Speaker 1: watch TV to see stuff like that. Now you're just
Speaker 1: overwhelmed with material and it's just not the same. It's
Speaker 1: funny when you're twenty four. If you're sixty four doing
Speaker 1: the same jokes.
Speaker 2: Hey man, look a lot of that jokes are reruns,
Speaker 2: but they're funny joke, right, I'm sorry. For example, you're right,
Speaker 2: how do you catch a unique rabbit?
Speaker 1: I don't know? Unique cup on it?
Speaker 2: Well, thank you, I remember where. Yeah, we both got
Speaker 2: infancymo laugh. I was well, I was thinking about yesterday.
Speaker 2: Is that the death rattle?
Speaker 1: If I pass out? If I pass out just to
Speaker 1: pour water on.
Speaker 2: John, I think I'd recognize that as the death rattle.
Speaker 3: It sounds pretty bad.
Speaker 2: No, I was thinking about the other day, how we
Speaker 2: would go down the Blockbuster Video and you get this big,
Speaker 2: clunky VHS cassette and then you would PLoP it in.
Speaker 2: Everybody was so excited.
Speaker 1: He We had a real quick twenty seconds. He lent
Speaker 1: me his video of Friday Friday, Oh my gosh, and
Speaker 1: he got kicked under the couch cost me one hundred
Speaker 1: and twenty five hours. And at that time, if you
Speaker 1: didn't return it, they would add up the days of
Speaker 1: the rental, not the cost of to replace it, how
Speaker 1: much it was to rent every single day of money.
Speaker 2: They lost one hundred and twenty five bucks.
Speaker 1: They assumed that they could have rendered it every single day.
Speaker 1: So we got in horrific fights. I don't even know
Speaker 1: if it came to blows in the studios because I
Speaker 1: was convinced he was lying and that he took it back.
Speaker 1: And when we moved out of that house, picked up
Speaker 1: the couch.
Speaker 2: There it was. There was I got in your argument
Speaker 2: with your wife.
Speaker 1: There it was there. It was said, Oh it was
Speaker 1: you got kick turn of the couch.
Speaker 3: I missed Blockbuster, I got an argument.
Speaker 2: I got an argument with your wife one time, and
Speaker 2: it did come to blows.
Speaker 1: Oh okay, so no, I do miss When my kids
Speaker 1: were little, that was some of the most fun things
Speaker 1: we did as parents and kids. I go, let's go
Speaker 1: to the movie store, and then the kids were five
Speaker 1: and like four, and they would just run around and
Speaker 1: pick out stuff.
Speaker 2: But you remember when when we were in high school.
Speaker 2: I know, we gotta get to break. But when we
Speaker 2: were in high school, everybody like a Friday Saturday night.
Speaker 2: You know, you go down to the video store and
Speaker 2: you're looking here would be just this blockbuster movie. But
Speaker 2: then over off the corner of your eye you spot
Speaker 2: a case. It has a half naked butt on it.
Speaker 1: You lete scene. That's a terrible movie when it was.
Speaker 1: I tell you, I think if you ask my kids,
Speaker 1: they'll say those nights were fun where they could run
Speaker 1: around the store and pick out movies. Course, and they
Speaker 1: always picked out the same movies. John would pick out
Speaker 1: Sandlot and then it.
Speaker 3: Was less cool with red Box and now it's completely uncool.
Speaker 2: Ident occasionally these kids would run behind in this secret
Speaker 2: room behind the curtains and come out with a different
Speaker 2: kind of movie. Can we have this one day? Oh?
Speaker 1: Jeff Tokey said he dropped some ding dongs off if
Speaker 1: you wanted him.
