Speaker 5: a personal injury attorneys, criminal attorneys that are willing to
Speaker 5: give free advice to our callers because that's what we
Speaker 5: all do. Three zero three Martino, three zho three Martino, gentlemen,
Speaker 5: start your engines. I watched a ten minute YouTube video
Speaker 5: this morning on shops like you guys have independent shops,
Speaker 5: and I didn't realize one of the biggest complaints right
Speaker 5: now is the cost. And we're talking pretty new cars.
Speaker 5: I'm not talking electric, although I'm sure they fall into it,
Speaker 5: but we're talking new cars that GM and four to Nissan,
Speaker 5: and all of them are putting such a fire wall
Speaker 5: up and tell me if this is true or not.
Speaker 5: For you guys to get to the information and diagnose
Speaker 5: them through the computer, you have to spend the most
Speaker 5: outrageous money in the world to buy some of these
Speaker 5: updates for your stuff. And this guy that I was
Speaker 5: watching said it could eventually, if something's not done about it,
Speaker 5: be the death of some of these smaller shops. One
Speaker 5: of the guys owned a transmission shop, Jeff, and he
Speaker 5: was saying, I forget if it was Nissan or Toyota,
Speaker 5: but one of them. Some of the updates are so
Speaker 5: expensive for these computers you guys. Use, it's just ridiculous,
Speaker 5: unless if you're doing a ton of them, it's not
Speaker 5: even worth buying. I mean, what are your thoughts on this?
Speaker 6: Guys? You have to buy a subscription to start with, give.
Speaker 5: Us an idea real noted sun.
Speaker 7: If you want to download an update, you buy it
Speaker 7: as though it's a part. So every card that you
Speaker 7: log in you want to do an update, it is
Speaker 7: to two hundred and fifty bucks.
Speaker 5: Oh wait a minute, wait a minute.
Speaker 7: So even if you have the subscription, you have to
Speaker 7: buy the download.
Speaker 5: So each car, if you had ten Nissans, you had
Speaker 5: done twenty.
Speaker 6: Five hundred bucks.
Speaker 5: Oh my god. Yes, Does the dealerships work the same
Speaker 5: way with them or no?
Speaker 7: Well, it's their part, so I'm not sure how they
Speaker 7: how they work, how their finances work. But for us,
Speaker 7: it's accessible and it's available.
Speaker 5: But if you and they have to make it accessible.
Speaker 5: But now it almost seems like this is a way
Speaker 5: of getting around it. You just make it so astronomical
Speaker 5: and it's horrible for the consumer because ultimately you have
Speaker 5: to charge the consumer for that.
Speaker 7: Sure, but you have multiple components. You change the door
Speaker 7: handle on a later model vehicle, you need to update it.
Speaker 5: You're telling me if a door handle breaks on say
Speaker 5: a Nissan or any anything.
Speaker 7: Well it's crash protected. So if the door's open, won't
Speaker 7: go win a gear. Well, so now you got to
Speaker 7: you gotta you gotta get it.
Speaker 5: If it's a Nissan, that costs two hundred and fifty.
Speaker 5: So not only does the consumer have to buy the
Speaker 5: door handle, yep, they got to pay for the programming.
Speaker 6: Yep.
Speaker 7: We put an inflow sensor on a Nissan yesterday, and
Speaker 7: the inflow sensors one hundred bucks, the labor's fifty bucks.
Speaker 6: In the programmings three hundred.
Speaker 7: Oh my god, because we had to update the programming
Speaker 7: to match the.
Speaker 5: I wonder where I wonder where the fairness comes in,
Speaker 5: because there was organizations out there that purely they're lobbyists
Speaker 5: and they purely make the rules to where they have
Speaker 5: to give independent shops access to stuff that is crazy.
Speaker 6: So free though, yeah, they give you access, it's not free.
Speaker 5: No, so not even not even ten years ago. I
Speaker 5: remember I spent I want to say, eight to ten
Speaker 5: grand on the computer that talks to everything or back
Speaker 5: then everything, and then there was some different updates and
Speaker 5: there was very few things we couldn't do. But each
Speaker 5: year I'd have to update that thing and we only
Speaker 5: had one computer. Most texts aren't going to buy this
Speaker 5: for the entire shop. Is it still kind of that way?
Speaker 5: Or to your text own them? My text all have scanners,
Speaker 5: so they but you pay the two fifty the shop.
Speaker 6: That's a whole different scale.
Speaker 5: That's a whole different scale that.
Speaker 7: Comes off on a laptop based program. So the hand
Speaker 7: holds hand held scanners from say snap On or Hotel
Speaker 7: or one of these. Most of the texts have their own.
Speaker 7: And we have a shop scan well.
Speaker 8: And depending on which scanner you've got, you know what
Speaker 8: we've got on our zeus. We actually have to pay
Speaker 8: a monthly subscription in order to keep that thing updated.
Speaker 5: How much is the hardware roughly.
Speaker 8: With to buy the actual scanner itself, depending on which
Speaker 8: package you got, between twelve to fifteen thousand.
Speaker 5: And then you have to pay monthly.
Speaker 6: You have to pay monthly.
Speaker 5: And then, like Kevin's saying certain things, you got to
Speaker 5: do something totally different.
Speaker 8: Yeah, you go through a pass trough connector where you
Speaker 8: work off of a laptop to do the program, and
Speaker 8: he was talking about and then you actually have to
Speaker 8: go to Nissan site or Chrysler site or whomever, and
Speaker 8: they all have different prices you have to go through,
Speaker 8: and they all you have to download different things for
Speaker 8: different parts of the car.
Speaker 5: That's insane, and.
Speaker 6: If you screw it up, you own it.
Speaker 5: That My favorite so far is your example of the
Speaker 5: door handle. You have a one hundred dollars part, You've
Speaker 5: got labor for that part, and then you have another
Speaker 5: two hundred and fifty dollars.
Speaker 8: Well, some of these later cars too, you know, like
Speaker 8: he says, if you screw it up, if you lose
Speaker 8: battery power for whatever reason, and you know, so you plug.
Speaker 5: The laptop into the ODBC two right, yeah, with a
Speaker 5: pass with a PASS two connector correct box they call it,
Speaker 5: so it talks to it.
Speaker 8: Some of these computers now you're you know, because they
Speaker 8: come stupid. So you've got a program and if you're
Speaker 8: in the middle of a programming session and you lose power,
Speaker 8: something gets corrupted and boom it wipes out.
Speaker 5: Then there's no you have to buy.
Speaker 8: Another company, right well, and then get another subscription to
Speaker 8: reload it.
Speaker 5: How often when you're rebuilding a transmission to these kind
Speaker 5: of things come into play, you.
Speaker 8: Know, probably once for maybe sometimes twice a week. Do
Speaker 8: we actually have to get in and do the programming?
Speaker 5: Oh my god, it is so insane, It is so insane.
Speaker 5: When did they go to that kind of subscription model
Speaker 5: like nissa? Is that fairly new?
Speaker 6: It's say four or five years, maybe you've.
Speaker 5: Got They keep coming up with stuff.
Speaker 8: Well, a lot of the equipment just became available to
Speaker 8: us a few years ago.
Speaker 5: You couldn't even get it.
Speaker 8: Yeah, you pretty much had had to roll this thing
Speaker 8: over to a dealership a lot of time. That's why
Speaker 8: a lot of guys don't do Europeans because Europeans have
Speaker 8: their own scanner, their own this, this, this is so
Speaker 8: we don't see enough of them to justify the costs.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, I have to see a lot of Jaguars
Speaker 5: do You can't do.
Speaker 6: That's why you get the European specialists.
Speaker 9: You know.
Speaker 5: I learned from a guy that runs or manages a
Speaker 5: safe light that Tesla up until not long ago, didn't
Speaker 5: give anybody access for the calibration. Now people can buy it.
Speaker 5: But when you look at a bill, when you get
Speaker 5: a windshield done, there that calibration packs the same way.
Speaker 5: They've got to literally log in to Tesla with the
Speaker 5: VIN and Tesla kind of sends them something and then
Speaker 5: they hooked a computer up to Tesla and it runs
Speaker 5: through whatever and calibrates it. But it's like a one
Speaker 5: time per Vin and then they charge them for it.
Speaker 5: And then of course you see it on your bill
Speaker 5: from safe Light. I mean it's like that's for a windshield.
Speaker 5: I mean it's getting absurd. Hey, Marylyn, what is going
Speaker 5: on with you? By the way, we got three lines
Speaker 5: open three oh three seven one three eight two five
Speaker 5: five three oh three. Martino would love to hear from
Speaker 5: you right now. Any car questions, buying the car, issues
Speaker 5: with the car. I got the best in studio Maryland.
Speaker 5: What's up? Hi, hun?
Speaker 10: Thank you for taking my call.
Speaker 5: You got it first.
Speaker 10: Thank you first and foremost. I have a home where
Speaker 10: I have about a twelve by twelve sign saying no trespass.
Speaker 6: Okay.
Speaker 10: I had a process server come yesterday banging on my
Speaker 10: door to the point where I jumped because he banged
Speaker 10: on the door so hard. Yeah, answered the door. He's
Speaker 10: asked for my husband. I tell him he's not there.
Speaker 10: He's not here because he's a trucker. So he's over
Speaker 10: the road and he says, And I asked him who
Speaker 10: are you and he says he's a process server and
Speaker 10: he's from the Commissioner's office. I tell, well, my husband
Speaker 10: isn't here. If it's for him, he says, well, I
Speaker 10: could leave with it you. I ton'd no, it looks
Speaker 10: like it's something important, so no, I prefer that you
Speaker 10: come back when my husband's here. So he's just flipping
Speaker 10: through his papers and I don't know what not and
Speaker 10: says okay, walks off. Comes back about a minute later
Speaker 10: and says, I talked to my boss and they said
Speaker 10: I could leave it here. To know, sir, I don't.
Speaker 10: I prefer not to sign for anything for my husband.
Speaker 10: I prefer that he do it. And he says, well,
Speaker 10: I'm leaving it. So I have a wrought iron door
Speaker 10: and it has the slats and the screen. He leaves
Speaker 10: it there and just walks off.
Speaker 11: Is that legal?
Speaker 5: That's a great question. Hold on, we're going to talk
Speaker 5: about it after this. Is it legal? Very interesting question.
Speaker 5: She's got a huge no trespassing sign. The guy simply
Speaker 5: walked past that the service is for the husband. The
Speaker 5: husband does live there, but he's a long haul trucker
Speaker 5: and he's not there.
Speaker 12: Hmm, Mark, there's more then that. Maryland said it was
Speaker 12: from the commissioner.
Speaker 1: That means.
Speaker 5: I don't know what that means. We'll find out, but
Speaker 5: I've got a lot of insight into this one. Hold
Speaker 5: on Maryland three oh three Martino.
Speaker 13: Go with a sure thing Denver's Best roofer Excel Roofing

Speaker 13: dot com to list your home with Remax Alliance three
Speaker 13: oh three nine two zero sixteen twenty two.
Speaker 5: All right, three oh three seven one three A two
Speaker 5: five five. You know it's crazy, and I'll I'll talk
Speaker 5: about that later, but I just point did something out
Speaker 5: in Gmail that drives me crazy, and I still, for
Speaker 5: the life of me, don't understand it. I don't know
Speaker 5: how to fix it, and it's just nuts. Let's get
Speaker 5: back to Maryland. Maryland, Maryland, basically someone was trying to
Speaker 5: serve a lawsuit or a court appearance to her husband.
Speaker 5: She's got a big sign out front that basically says,
Speaker 5: you know, no trespassing, and she's got some kind of
Speaker 5: a lock gait or something like that, some kind of
Speaker 5: fence or something. But anyhow, so I want to answer
Speaker 5: that one first. No, a process server with a no
Speaker 5: trespassing sign should not come onto your yard. They can't
Speaker 5: legally do it. I don't know what the ramification is
Speaker 5: for it. I guess you could call the police and
Speaker 5: try to get them cited for trespassing. But no, he
Speaker 5: should not legally do that. But that really doesn't matter,
Speaker 5: and I'll get into that in a second. Maryland, I
Speaker 5: don't understand why you would I did. At this point,
Speaker 5: they left it. It's evident you know it's there. And
Speaker 5: what would happen is if you showed up to court
Speaker 5: to actually fight, or if your husband did the process
Speaker 5: server or the actual service itself. They're just going to
Speaker 5: show up and reserve you there. So in most cases,
Speaker 5: the best it's gonna do is extend the process of
Speaker 5: when the court date would be. At this point, you
Speaker 5: know about it. Your husband most likely knows about it.
Speaker 5: I guess you could simply say you didn't know about
Speaker 5: it and not show up to court, but you risked
Speaker 5: something really big, and that would be a default judgment.
Speaker 5: So my gut tells me you should show up or
Speaker 5: your husband, or at least call them and try to
Speaker 5: figure it out. But you said something that threw all
Speaker 5: of us off. I'm curious about you said the commissioner.
Speaker 5: What the heck does that mean?
Speaker 10: Yeah, Commissioner's office, And I'm like, the commissioner of what,
Speaker 10: I don't He didn't even tell me what county. He
Speaker 10: had a really bad attitude, like he was angry with
Speaker 10: me or something, and here I just met the guy.
Speaker 5: It sounds like a process server in general. What does
Speaker 5: the paperwork say though? What was it about?
Speaker 14: To my knowledge, I don't know.
Speaker 10: It's still just sitting there. I'm afraid to touch it
Speaker 10: because if I touched it, am I going to get
Speaker 10: in trouble? Because I'm not the one that it was
Speaker 10: supposed to be served.
Speaker 5: Now, you can serve anybody at their residence and anybody
Speaker 5: that basically is there and opens the door. Not a child, though,
Speaker 5: but I mean pretty much anywhere else you did get
Speaker 5: served your husband did get served if that's his residence
Speaker 5: and you opened the door, did they do it properly?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 5: But once again, none of that matters. He did get served.
Speaker 15: Oh all right, is.
Speaker 10: There anywhere anyone I can talk to about it, like
Speaker 10: as if he wants to pursue it with an attorney
Speaker 10: for him coming on our property?
Speaker 5: Not?
Speaker 13: No.
Speaker 5: The only that part doesn't matter. The only thing you
Speaker 5: could do there is call the police up and tell
Speaker 5: them this guy trespassed as a server. But I don't
Speaker 5: think they're going to do anything about it. It's very
Speaker 5: technical when it comes to a no trespassing sign. Technically
Speaker 5: you're not supposed to trespass, but people do it all
Speaker 5: the time. Go ahead, de miitri, You've served a lot
Speaker 5: of people. You must have thoughts on this.
Speaker 6: Well.
Speaker 12: You know, we had an almost identical call when you
Speaker 12: were gone, and Marco Benonelli was guest hosting the show
Speaker 12: and we discussed what constitutes gutter service where the defendant
Speaker 12: is not properly served. Yep, And he said to this caller,
Speaker 12: and it was pretty good advice, which is, you can
Speaker 12: fight the service. You can hire an attorney to make
Speaker 12: a limited appearance in court on your behalf and this
Speaker 12: limited appearance does not entitle the plaintiff to serve the attorney,
Speaker 12: so they'll have to start the process all over again.
Speaker 5: Well that's what I said. It's purely a time play
Speaker 5: because as you do hire, if she hires an attorney
Speaker 5: that does everything Marco's talking about, they're going to end
Speaker 5: up serving her at some point. And you're you're all
Speaker 5: you're doing is resetting the clock, and you're spending money
Speaker 5: to do it. Eventually they'll find a way to serve you.
Speaker 5: Well no, no, no, I think eventually they're going to
Speaker 5: serve you in court over the bad service.
Speaker 12: Well, my point is she doesn't have to show up
Speaker 12: to court. Oh I got if the her attorney.
Speaker 5: You're saying they don't have to serve the attorney.
Speaker 12: And yeah, they won't be able to because the attorney
Speaker 12: is able to make a limited appearance on her behalf
Speaker 12: gess simply for the purpose of fighting the service. However,
Speaker 12: it's still stuck in the door of Maryland. So go
Speaker 12: take a look at it. You got nothing to lose.
Speaker 12: See what that is and see when your answer is due.
Speaker 12: Because maybe they served you late and.
Speaker 5: No one knows who you are. But what do you
Speaker 5: what do you guys think it's about.
Speaker 10: I think it's about property that we have and been
Speaker 10: at Colorado.
Speaker 5: Okay, so you guys have at least you're aware of it.
Speaker 5: And do you think there's actually a good case against
Speaker 5: you or it's something that you guys could defend. In
Speaker 5: other words, do you guys think you're on the right.
Speaker 2: Yes, I do.
Speaker 10: I think we're on the right most definitely.
Speaker 5: And if so, if it's a property dispute, maybe you
Speaker 5: talk to someone on our referral list about this. But
Speaker 5: you just, like Dimitri said, you really need to open
Speaker 5: it up and see it and then share it with
Speaker 5: like Bradley O'Brien, he could probably look at that and
Speaker 5: give you guys some really good advice on the actual
Speaker 5: underlying situation. But don't. I really don't think you should
Speaker 5: worry about the service at all, to be quite frank,
Speaker 5: I mean, you're eventually going to get served. All you're
Speaker 5: doing is putting it off and that probably cost I
Speaker 5: bet you that costs a couple thousand bucks to fight
Speaker 5: the service these days. Yeah, I have no idea, but
Speaker 5: I wouldn't be surprised.
Speaker 12: But I think it's more important to see what the
Speaker 12: heck is it that you guys served with and what
Speaker 12: are the deadlines? Because you don't want to miss any
Speaker 12: of those, regardless of the quality of service.
Speaker 5: I wonder what the commissioner that part really like a
Speaker 5: land commissioner, county commission More likely the county's coming after you.
Speaker 5: You guys better, you guys better look that up and
Speaker 5: get get with an attorney. I thought you meant like
Speaker 5: a neighbor dispute.
Speaker 10: Uh No, we have two parcels of acres in uh
Speaker 10: in Bennett, Colorado, and my husband he's he does part
Speaker 10: time junking and sometimes he gets kind of dirty. Uh
Speaker 10: And I think that might be what it's about.
Speaker 5: Got it. They're saying the land is being used for
Speaker 5: something it's not supposed to. Yeah, like a zoning violation
Speaker 5: or maybe of a contamination violation. That would suck.
Speaker 10: No, we have we have kind of col phillips on
Speaker 10: there that drilled an oil. Well, yeah, so it's not
Speaker 10: considered vacant land.
Speaker 5: Are you leasing the land?
Speaker 10: We owned the land.
Speaker 5: Well, how is Conaco phillips on it?
Speaker 14: Uh?
Speaker 5: Well they found oil on on the land that's not
Speaker 5: my Did you give them rights to go in there?
Speaker 5: So are they leasing the land, how were they using it?
Speaker 5: How did you guys extend permission?
Speaker 10: They came and told us that they found oil under
Speaker 10: our land, and we have the mineral rights, so we
Speaker 10: give them permission to drill there, and all those big
Speaker 10: tanks and the drill head is there, puff jacket is
Speaker 10: there and everything. And we were told that once that
Speaker 10: moved in, that it's not vacant land anymore. And they're
Speaker 10: trying to say it's vacant land and it's not anymore
Speaker 10: since the drilling went on.
Speaker 5: Interesting.
Speaker 8: I think you dous what it's about too. You could
Speaker 8: probably get Conical Phillips to come in on your behalf.
Speaker 5: That's exactly what I was going to say. You might
Speaker 5: want to get that opened and then reach out to
Speaker 5: whoever you did the deal with. With Conico Phillips. I
Speaker 5: assure you they got more attorneys in the entire state
Speaker 5: of Colorado, no doubt about it. And I don't know why.
Speaker 5: If there's oil on that land and they're pulling the
Speaker 5: profit out of there, they're the ones that are probably going.
Speaker 6: To look at this.
Speaker 5: Are they still out there on the land They still
Speaker 5: have a deal with you guys, Yes, yes they do. Yeah, you, guys,
Speaker 5: you really should open that up.
Speaker 6: Ye, stop ignoring it, Yeah.
Speaker 5: Don't ignore it, and then reach out to Knaco before
Speaker 5: anything and go, hey, guys, what tell's going on here?
Speaker 1: Hey?
Speaker 2: Mark?
Speaker 16: Before we hang up? Aren't there exceptions to trespass rule?
Speaker 16: In other words, if you're a cop, or you're a mailman,
Speaker 16: or you're a delivery person, that you're allowed I feel
Speaker 16: what the word is that you're allowed to go up
Speaker 16: and knock on the door.
Speaker 5: Oh, at a police officer or somebody of law enforcement. Absolutely,
Speaker 5: I never thought of a post office worker, but I
Speaker 5: would assume maybe a post office inspector or a post
Speaker 5: office cop. Absolutely, or if you just a mailman, probably,
Speaker 5: and I'm sure delivery from that, but not with a
Speaker 5: process server under most normal circumstances. Now as sheriff serving
Speaker 5: it would be an interesting one because the sheriff showing
Speaker 5: up to serve it. Yes, but this guy wasn't a
Speaker 5: shaff that so, but that's that's a good question, Doc.
Speaker 5: I'm sorry, hold on, go ahead, Marylyn.
Speaker 10: When he walked off, he was have this big old smile,
Speaker 10: and there's this we have off street parking. He started
Speaker 10: taking the license plate number to a truck that's parked
Speaker 10: in front of my house, which does not belong to
Speaker 10: my husband, but he's taken down.
Speaker 5: The life Marylyn, you guys, you had no offense. I
Speaker 5: assume your husband's in the same boat as you, which
Speaker 5: is good, but you're really focusing on the wrong thing.
Speaker 5: The service is done, you know about it, no matter what.
Speaker 5: You guys got to face the piper on this, no
Speaker 5: matter what. And I really think you guys need to
Speaker 5: quit thinking of this aspect because there is going to
Speaker 5: be a core date someone signed off on that service.
Speaker 5: You can go in in front of the judge, like
Speaker 5: I said, and say tell him exactly how you got served.
Speaker 5: If he lies under oath to the judge, well he's crazy.
Speaker 5: Well maybe you got video surveillance or something. But if
Speaker 5: he doesn't.
Speaker 10: Lie, your neighbors all in neighbors have videos.
Speaker 5: That's fine. Maybe they I've seen it, but Marilyn, listen
Speaker 5: to what I'm saying. You go in there and you
Speaker 5: say you're on or they didn't service properly, and they didn't.
Speaker 5: From everything you told me, this guy did not serve
Speaker 5: you properly, and you prove it to the judge and
Speaker 5: the guy acknowledges it to the judge at a hearing.
Speaker 5: You know what happens, then they serve you right down
Speaker 5: there in the courtroom. That's my whole point. And then
Speaker 5: you just started the clock over. Big deal. They've got
Speaker 5: to go get another hearing. You're going to end up
Speaker 5: showing up now. Dmitri gave some advice from Marco, who's
Speaker 5: an attorney that we respect on this show, and he said,
Speaker 5: you can hire some attorneys. They can fight it to
Speaker 5: where it won't go down that way, but you're still
Speaker 5: going to pay a few thousand bucks easily to do that.
Speaker 5: You might not win, and eventually you're going to get
Speaker 5: served again. That's where it keeps coming back to. So,
Speaker 5: I mean, you've got a lot of things to think about.
Speaker 5: But what I would do is go open that package,
Speaker 5: see what's going on, reach out to Kanako or ex On,
Speaker 5: whoever it was. Basically, if you need to hire an attorney,
Speaker 5: I'm telling you send it over to Brad O'Brien. I mean,
Speaker 5: that's just kind of how you do it.
Speaker 16: But how about you if she opens up reason and
Speaker 16: calls us and then we can maybe point in the
Speaker 16: right direction.
Speaker 5: Well, I already know it's it's it's gotta be Bennett.

Speaker 5: off or taking advantage over any car questions three zero
Speaker 5: three seven one three eight two five five three oh
Speaker 5: three Martino love to hear from you right now. Dmitri
Speaker 5: during the break, was doing some research on service. We
Speaker 5: get that question. Actually quite a bit was I served legally?
Speaker 5: And a lot of times you might not have been,
Speaker 5: but it really doesn't matter ultimately. But you discovered some
Speaker 5: Colorado case law.
Speaker 12: Yeah, Mark, I looked up a much more narrow topic
Speaker 12: than what you just summarized, which is basically, can a
Speaker 12: process server trustpass? Yeah, and specifically can a process server
Speaker 12: ignore aspass a no treuspassing sign?
Speaker 5: And the case and I was kind of surprised.
Speaker 12: The car To State Court of Appeals ruled on this
Speaker 12: in twenty nineteen in a case called People Versus Nickel,
Speaker 12: and Nickel was being served by somebody on his farm
Speaker 12: despite note trespassing signs, and mister Nickle allegedly dis behaved towards.
Speaker 5: It shot his ass or what I mean, how much
Speaker 5: did he miss behaved?
Speaker 12: Well, you know, it's pretty humorous, but allegedly mister neckl
Speaker 12: came out wielding a metal pipe and as the process
Speaker 12: server tried to retreat, he found that somebody had jacked
Speaker 12: up his car, so he wasn't even able to escape.
Speaker 5: Oh wait a minute, Wait a minute, guy who jacked
Speaker 5: up his Carl's kid.
Speaker 12: Well, I haven't gotten that far. It's a twenty five
Speaker 12: pitch of page. Oh my god, it's fascinating. There are
Speaker 12: even excerpts from the nine one one calls that both parties.
Speaker 5: Made to read one of them, Oh it's you know, listen,
Speaker 5: this guy goes to serve him. He goes past and
Speaker 5: no trespassing. Did he like park it the no trespassing?
Speaker 5: Then enter the property.
Speaker 12: It's a farm. So he parked in a long, long driveway.
Speaker 12: And so mister Nickel is alleged to have said to
Speaker 12: the nine one one operator, he's on private property and
Speaker 12: I'm going to neutralize he's a threat right now.
Speaker 5: We got to get mister Nichols on or them kind
Speaker 5: of he could go after bad.
Speaker 12: Contractors, process server. The nine one one operator responds, no,
Speaker 12: you can't do that. Nickel says, would you like me
Speaker 12: to render him incompetent?
Speaker 5: Would you like me to shoot him?
Speaker 12: Needless to say, mister Nickel got prosecuted for several felonies
Speaker 12: and he appeals his uh, his his conviction.
Speaker 5: However he appeals it as of now or going back,
Speaker 5: well in the this is back this show, So he
Speaker 5: got in trouble then and there for the threat. Yeah,
Speaker 5: and apparently you know, chasing the guy with a pipe
Speaker 5: and beating up his car.
Speaker 12: He didn't beat up the car he jacked up the
Speaker 12: car like with a jack.
Speaker 5: Driver, We're no longer contact. Love this guy so so,
Speaker 5: but he gets in trouble, He gets in ben trouble
Speaker 5: and then so he either goes to jail, whatever happens.
Speaker 12: Victor of several offenses, and then he does what appeal
Speaker 12: he appeals and.
Speaker 5: What did the did he appeal based upon? Really the
Speaker 5: start of the no trespassing.
Speaker 12: Yeah, that seems to be the genesis of his entire defense.
Speaker 12: Ultimately it didn't work, as he lost an appeal. The
Speaker 12: appeals court affirmed all of the lower court's decisions. But
Speaker 12: in any case, the relevant part that I was trying
Speaker 12: to find is not whether it's legal to threaten with
Speaker 12: the process.
Speaker 18: Back up the guy's car.
Speaker 5: Can you imagine you jump in your car and the
Speaker 5: wheels are spending, You're going nowhere?
Speaker 12: But the appeals so I was interested in a more
Speaker 12: neuro topic, which is does the process server need to
Speaker 12: turn around when he sees the no trespassing sign? And
Speaker 12: basically the appeals court held that no, a process server
Speaker 12: can proceed despite the presence of a no trespassing sign. However,
Speaker 12: you can revoke the person answering the door or somewhere
Speaker 12: in the house can revoke this implied license to enter
Speaker 12: the property.
Speaker 5: Got it by telling the dude to leave, and when
Speaker 5: he left, when came back. Yeah, so not only I
Speaker 5: see it, not a whod on. So tell me if
Speaker 5: the way you're reading this, if this would be Craig,
Speaker 5: this lady looks out, sees this guy walking up, Yeah,
Speaker 5: she needs She could probably have yelled out the window, yes,
Speaker 5: well you cannot trespass, leave now, leave now, and he
Speaker 5: would have been required to turn around and leave. But
Speaker 5: because she opened, didn't talk to him, and I'm just
Speaker 5: talking about her caller, Yeah, because she opened, didn't talk
Speaker 5: to him and didn't revoke it. Actually she did. She
Speaker 5: told him to leave. According to her, he left, he
Speaker 5: went out and made a phone call that his boss,
Speaker 5: and the boss said, no, bring it back. Yea, So
Speaker 5: it probably was that was bad service. That well, no,
Speaker 5: that's a separate issue, right. What I was trying to
Speaker 5: find out is if the guy was truly trespassing, So
Speaker 5: when he came back, he really was trespassing, Yeah, because
Speaker 5: she revoked his limited rights right to license to enter.
Speaker 5: But like I said, though, it probably was bad service.
Speaker 5: But what the hell's doing I think that's a different issue.
Speaker 12: Right, So did the guy commit trespass in my opinion, yes,
Speaker 12: my opinion he did.
Speaker 5: Was the service bad as a result of his trespass?
Speaker 6: I don't know.
Speaker 5: I would say it was.
Speaker 12: Why wouldn't it be, Well, because the service of process
Speaker 12: is governed by an entirely different body of law, which
Speaker 12: is going to be Colorado civil procedures.
Speaker 5: Yeah, but I'm still telling you a it doesn't matter
Speaker 5: because even if they go to courts, are going to
Speaker 5: get served there, right right, right. This is just an
Speaker 5: interesting intellectual very very interesting. But I would argue, yes,
Speaker 5: you can't trespass and serve somebody, Yes, unless people tell
Speaker 5: you to get the hell out. I had girl scouts
Speaker 5: one time. I said, you get the hell off my lawn.
Speaker 5: If they can't, I'm just kidding them. I did not
Speaker 5: tell cookies, and we have those damn cookies right in
Speaker 5: that wagon. No, no, no, it would be curious. So
Speaker 5: I wonder who could answer that, I mean, bad service? Oh,
Speaker 5: any of our attorney friends could answer. You'd be surprised,
Speaker 5: know they don't. They just wait for the service to
Speaker 5: come back. I mean, really, they might know the law,
Speaker 5: they knows, they might have fought. Okay, you name one,
Speaker 5: let's get them on. I bet they don't know. Oh, Marco, Marco,
Speaker 5: he might still be on his trip. Hold on, I
Speaker 5: gotta take this break. We got open lines three oh
Speaker 5: three seven one three eight two five five. And by
Speaker 5: the way, if you're a process server, we'd love to
Speaker 5: hear from you right now what you know about this.

Speaker 5: my ad of line. Hey Jim, what's going on with
Speaker 5: this convertible? Uh?
Speaker 2: Yeah, Hi, Mike.
Speaker 5: Are you doing I'm doing great, Jim. How are you?
Speaker 5: Do you own a convertible? No?
Speaker 20: I do not.
Speaker 21: I want to buy a convertible. It's on my bucket list.
Speaker 5: Why is that? I'm just curious. I've never like they
Speaker 5: look cool, but I mean like they look like they're
Speaker 5: also a pain in the ass. But go ahead, well,
Speaker 5: yes and no.
Speaker 21: The very first car I owned was a convertible. Nice
Speaker 21: that was fifty five years ago.
Speaker 5: Did you pick up a lot of chicks in it?
Speaker 5: As like a chick magnet if you do own one.
Speaker 21: Well, it wasn't a bad thing.
Speaker 2: Let's say that.
Speaker 5: I like that. What is your question?
Speaker 2: Well, I want to.
Speaker 21: Buy a convertible. Yeah, I know there's some problems with convertibles,
Speaker 21: but I'm at a point in my life where it's
Speaker 21: something that I want to do. And there's only two
Speaker 21: as far as I know, only two American car makers
Speaker 21: that make convertibles now, Chevy and Ford.
Speaker 5: Is that correct, guys? You guys even know American? He said, though, yeah, American?
Speaker 5: Well what other American cars are there?
Speaker 6: Dodge?
Speaker 5: Okay, Dodge? Are you looking for you or used?
Speaker 22: Well, it kind of depends.
Speaker 21: I would buy either potentially.
Speaker 5: What are the Chevy and Ford's I assume, Well, the
Speaker 5: Mustang's electric only now, so that's not going.
Speaker 6: To be an either way.
Speaker 5: You get a gas is that that's probably going to
Speaker 5: be a convertible. They've been doing it forever, probably and
Speaker 5: then I would assume the can you get a Corvette?
Speaker 21: I could get it. That would be probably my last choice.
Speaker 21: I'm not sure I want to spend that much money,
Speaker 21: but I would consider that. So either it would either
Speaker 21: be a Camaro or a Corvette. There are foreign makers,
Speaker 21: but I'm.
Speaker 5: A Camaro would be sweet man.
Speaker 21: And the kind of money that they're asking for, like
Speaker 21: Alectus convertible or.
Speaker 5: Something, how much? How much is like the cheapest one?
Speaker 5: Is that going to be the Mustang?
Speaker 21: Probably Mustang and Camaro are pretty comparable in price from
Speaker 21: what I've seen.
Speaker 5: And how much are those now?
Speaker 21: You know you can spend anywhere from like twenty five
Speaker 21: to fifty thousand dollars.
Speaker 5: I think, wow, that's crazy.
Speaker 23: Whether they're never used?
Speaker 5: So what's your budget?
Speaker 21: And what I'm looking for feedback as far as you know,
Speaker 21: any issues with reliability or is it just.
Speaker 1: Kind of a.
Speaker 21: You know, it is what it is?
Speaker 5: What about So you're not necessarily asking about the convertible
Speaker 5: part of it. What you're asking is out of the
Speaker 5: Chevy and the Ford lines, which is one of the
Speaker 5: ones you want. What do these guys think are the
Speaker 5: better running cars? Hold on, that's a great question. Three

Speaker 6: We got the.
Speaker 5: Whole gang together three h three seven one three eight
Speaker 5: two five five. We were talking during the breakout. We
Speaker 5: used to scare our siblings. Well, I don't have any siblings,
Speaker 5: and it made me think of a story with my
Speaker 5: daughter Addie, who's graduating tomorrow, by the way, law school. Anyhow,
Speaker 5: she uh Susanna and I tricker about a year ago,
Speaker 5: maybe two years ago. It was finals for that year
Speaker 5: up in Laramie, so it was finals for the semester,
Speaker 5: and we told her that we were bringing our son
Speaker 5: to Hawaii and we wanted her to go, and of
Speaker 5: course we booked a trip right when finals were so
Speaker 5: we knew she couldn't. She was devastated. She bought it
Speaker 5: hook line and sinker. Devastated she was. And then at
Speaker 5: the end, ah, we're just kidding, haha. But I've always
Speaker 5: done that to my kids. It's just the way I am.
Speaker 16: No I did to my son. We were driving. We
Speaker 16: had flown to New York and borrowed my sister's car
Speaker 16: to drive up to the mountains in New York. And
Speaker 16: I don't know how old Eric was, but she had
Speaker 16: one of the first cars where you had the radio
Speaker 16: controls on the steering wheel. Yeah, So every time Eric
Speaker 16: went to change the station, we would change it, and
Speaker 16: he we convinced him that he broke his aunt Kathy's car.
Speaker 5: No idea.
Speaker 6: He was in tears.
Speaker 5: I was crazy. I love. We've always been a practical
Speaker 5: joke family. So when she went to get back at
Speaker 5: us for it, it happened probably about four or five
Speaker 5: months later, so everything was just well forgotten, not looking
Speaker 5: for the comeback. We get a call that she's coming
Speaker 5: home from Laramie for the weekend and it was unexpected,
Speaker 5: and we're like, what, Hell's she coming home for this Friday.
Speaker 5: In her school, they never had classes on Friday, so
Speaker 5: sometimes she'd come home and then leave back up Sunday,
Speaker 5: but generally not. And she goes is dad there, She's
Speaker 5: talking to my wife, she's talking to sus his dad there,
Speaker 5: and she's like, well, he's not here right now, but
Speaker 5: why And she's like, well, I really need to sit
Speaker 5: down and talk to both of you, and I don't
Speaker 5: want to talk about it right now, but it's really important.
Speaker 5: When's dad going to be home? And she's like, well,
Speaker 5: he should be home in a half hour. She's like good,
Speaker 5: we're about an hour out. Or she's about an hour out.
Speaker 5: So Suzanne calls me and says, hey, Litlan tells me
Speaker 5: about it, and I'm going, wait a minute. There is
Speaker 5: nothing good about this. Absolutely. I can't think of any
Speaker 5: reason except for one reason. She is saying this, and
Speaker 5: I say this to Suzanne. I said, I bet she's pregnant.
Speaker 5: I said, I bet she's freaking pregnant. And Suzanne goes,
Speaker 5: I was kind of thinking that too. She goes, Listen,
Speaker 5: no matter what happens, you got to be cool. You
Speaker 5: have got to be cool, no matter what, she says.
Speaker 5: You got to hold your poo and you gotta be
Speaker 5: really cool on this. So we wait and we're just
Speaker 5: sweating it out and sweating it out, and she shows
Speaker 5: up and she looks stressed, big time stressed. And she
Speaker 5: sits down, and sure enough, she goes, I don't know
Speaker 5: what to do. I don't want you guys mad. I'm pregnant.
Speaker 5: And Suzanne explodes the one that told me to keep cool.
Speaker 5: She goes, where is that boyfriend of yours? How come
Speaker 5: that son of a bitch isn't here? How come he's
Speaker 5: not here facing the music? What's going on? And I'm
Speaker 5: over there going damn, I don't got to do a
Speaker 5: damn thing. She's got this thing handled. And I'll tell
Speaker 5: you she had us so good. Suzanne was so mad,
Speaker 5: just so frustrated, not over the pregnancy, but over the
Speaker 5: boyfriend wouldn't show up during this conversation. And then I
Speaker 5: look over Addie and I just see this little smirk
Speaker 5: she got us. She's like, eh, that's for wh LIAI Oh.
Speaker 5: It was terrifying, the most terror. That must have been
Speaker 5: one of the most terrifying things. I was speechless. Have
Speaker 5: you guys ever seen me speechless? I absolutely was speechless.
Speaker 6: I've never seen like Suzanne go off either.
Speaker 5: I made I wish she was here. She was hissed.
Speaker 6: Ye.
Speaker 5: All right, what are your thoughts on this convertible? Jim
Speaker 5: called up. He wants to buy a convertible. It's kind
Speaker 5: of his dream Car's first car was a convertible years
Speaker 5: and years ago, and you know now he wants it
Speaker 5: on his bucket list. He's going to buy a new
Speaker 5: one or used one. He wants to know what you
Speaker 5: guys think of American convertibles or American car companies that
Speaker 5: make convertibles, which one's better to get.
Speaker 7: I think they're both equal. I don't see a big difference.
Speaker 7: I mean both the cars are impractical. Well, doesn't care
Speaker 7: about yous. He can still move into Chris where they
Speaker 7: the Challenger that had a convertible option back to twenty three.
Speaker 7: If he's doing used, if he's doing used, so you
Speaker 7: know you still have you know, so you.
Speaker 5: Would say, I mean, would you tell Jim whichever one
Speaker 5: you like the best?
Speaker 6: Yeah?
Speaker 5: And then if it shoes get a checked yes preference.
Speaker 7: It's there's nothing nothing about any one of them that's
Speaker 7: better than the other or worse than the other.
Speaker 5: Hey, Jim, what was your first one when you were
Speaker 5: a teenager?
Speaker 21: It was a nineteen fifty eighth Al Alpha Romeo?
Speaker 5: Oh wow, do they even And they still make Alpha Romeos,
Speaker 5: don't they?
Speaker 6: Yeah?
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think I've seen one in the parking lot here.
Speaker 21: I paid six hundred dollars for that car in nineteen
Speaker 21: seventy two, and you can't put your hands on one
Speaker 21: now for less than one hundred and fifty thousand dollars.
Speaker 5: Oh that's incredible that much for real, highly collectable. And
Speaker 5: these guys were telling me about a Mercedes they used
Speaker 5: to make that would literally it be a hard top
Speaker 5: and there were panels that would fold up into the trunk.
Speaker 5: That sounded pretty cool. Yeah, that does.
Speaker 1: So.
Speaker 5: I mean basically they're saying I mean, really, guys, you're saying,
Speaker 5: whatever one he likes, I mean, just get it checked out.
Speaker 6: Yep.
Speaker 7: Yeah, because they got to be extra cars because they're
Speaker 7: not getting the winner.
Speaker 5: I didn't know Mustang. It's funny you said that every
Speaker 5: Mustang I see is electric. I didn't even know they
Speaker 5: made a gas powered one. Now well, less and less? Yeah,
Speaker 5: you got any other questions, Jim.
Speaker 21: No, I appreciate it, thanks, guys.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I appreciate that too. I like I was taking
Speaker 5: my first car. It was a seventy nine Granada. There's
Speaker 5: no nostalgia there. I will never buy a nineteen seventy
Speaker 5: nine Granada. What was your first Jeff?
Speaker 8: Uh My first car that I bought was a sixty
Speaker 8: seven Mustang nice and I actually just sold that here
Speaker 8: two years ago.
Speaker 5: Oh no kidding, you've had it since then. How much
Speaker 5: you buy it for? Originally I bought it for twenty
Speaker 5: five hundred that's a lot. And then when did you
Speaker 5: buy what year?
Speaker 8: It was nineteen eighty eight?
Speaker 5: And then what'd you sell it for?
Speaker 24: Well?
Speaker 5: It was a project car. Now, so I sold it
Speaker 5: for twenty five hundred. Oh okay, say you broke even
Speaker 5: twenty five years later?
Speaker 8: Well, I think I have to go wash on the
Speaker 8: That twenty five hundred doesn't go quite as far anymore.
Speaker 5: It doesn't go anywhere. No, that's like a twelve pack
Speaker 5: of eggs and a Hamburger. That's it. And then what
Speaker 5: was yours?
Speaker 6: Sixty nine Malibu?
Speaker 5: Malibu? Nice?
Speaker 6: And it was a convertible, which I would never do again.
Speaker 5: Didn't that have? Was that a five liter?
Speaker 6: Uh? Three or five? Yes? Three h seven?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 6: Yeah?
Speaker 5: Yeah, those were pretty popular.
Speaker 6: Yep.
Speaker 5: So far you guys beat the hell out of my
Speaker 5: Granada DA.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 5: Now I had access to my parents' car before I
Speaker 5: ended up getting the Granada. Sure, and that was a
Speaker 5: Chevy Chavette, So there I was rolling.
Speaker 8: The one that I had access to was actually a
Speaker 8: seventy four Vega. Yeah, four cylinder with a flat cam.
Speaker 8: Nice controlling that car.
Speaker 6: You could not the Chrysler Town and Country Wagon.
Speaker 5: Oh, I thought you're gonna say minivan. I think. Did
Speaker 5: it have the seats in the back, yeah, to face
Speaker 5: the other wise faced the death seats. I remember my
Speaker 5: uncle Mario had those, and me and my cousin Matt,
Speaker 5: we'd be in the back, never thinking anything of it.
Speaker 5: I never thought of huh what else? Figure rear ended,
Speaker 5: My face would be gone.
Speaker 6: Well, let in the carbon monoxide you get in the
Speaker 6: back window?
Speaker 5: Oh man, Yeah, there was all.
Speaker 6: Kinds of back then.
Speaker 5: It didn't matter because everybody smoked. So I mean you
Speaker 5: just you basically secondhand smoked in the carp how about you,
Speaker 5: Dimitri Mark?
Speaker 12: I have to respectfully decline to answer that question because
Speaker 12: what was your first car is a very common security
Speaker 12: question and online accounts.
Speaker 5: I'm sorry, black helicopters. Did you bring the tin foil?
Speaker 6: I forgot the foil today?
Speaker 5: Oh goodness, take a look at your accounts. What was
Speaker 5: the name of your first pet? What did you grow
Speaker 5: up on? What was your first car?
Speaker 7: Actually answer those questions correctly, correct.
Speaker 5: Question? There your question?
Speaker 6: You just answer, Lord, but then off.
Speaker 12: But then if I ever have to your home address, yeah,
Speaker 12: that's another question.
Speaker 5: I'm appalled that you won't say on car Day what
Speaker 5: your first car was for reason status? Oh my goodness,
Speaker 5: can we get can we get a psychologist? So what
Speaker 5: was the reason? Because he's afraid people are going to
Speaker 5: hack into everything because one of his security questions for
Speaker 5: like bank accounts and everything is what was your first car?
Speaker 12: Not just my security questions, it's a very it's probably
Speaker 12: the most common of all security questions. So take a
Speaker 12: look at what you filled out on your online access.
Speaker 12: So all of you guys just gave up probably the
Speaker 12: first security question on your credit cards, bank account, et cetera.
Speaker 8: Guarantee I didn't because they have an option on there
Speaker 8: where you can create your own security question, and I
Speaker 8: just write my own stuff in like what.

Speaker 5: All right, three oh three seven one three eight two
Speaker 5: five five three oh three Martino. This is interesting we
Speaker 5: were talking about because the convertible. I brought up least
Speaker 5: reliable car models and these are new ones. These are
Speaker 5: twenty twenty five least and this is consumer reports that
Speaker 5: don't cheat. But what do you think the least Well,
Speaker 5: there's a bunch of them. But name what do you think?
Speaker 5: Name one you think range Rover? Range Rover is not
Speaker 5: on land Rover?
Speaker 6: Is that a range Rover?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 5: Or is that a Toyota land Rover? Who would ben
Speaker 5: elefan rangeover? What is the Toyota That sounds something like
Speaker 5: that cruiser? Oh, a land cruiser? Do they still make those?
Speaker 5: Those were popular as they just came back this year.
Speaker 5: Very cool. Yep, land Rovers absolutely is on there. Mini Cooper.
Speaker 5: But here's the number one for twenty twenty five. It's
Speaker 5: somewhat surprising. Well, it just says least reliable car models
Speaker 5: Ford F one fifty hybrid and basically it's saying, I'm
Speaker 5: trying to find the entire article. Hold on here here.
Speaker 5: It is super how brands stack up. Brands are ranked
Speaker 5: average predictable reliability based on cr members. So the Ford one,
Speaker 5: what they're saying is wrong with it, which is interesting
Speaker 5: they're saying owners say there's a lot of problems with
Speaker 5: the battery and the hybrid system, low reliability. And then
Speaker 5: they also say Jeep Wrangler. I always saw Jeeps were
Speaker 5: pretty strong. Now you guys see a lot of problems.
Speaker 8: Well, we've been seeing a lot of the Jeep products
Speaker 8: with the clutches. They've actually got recalls on them because
Speaker 8: they overheat.
Speaker 5: Jeep Grand Cherokee is another one, Nissan Frontier. What are
Speaker 5: your thoughts on that one?
Speaker 6: Jeff?
Speaker 8: Just about anything in the nissanline right now, I don't
Speaker 8: consider reliable garbage.
Speaker 5: How about Volkswagen Jetta.
Speaker 6: I don't know, do you pronounce it?
Speaker 8: Volkswagon just pronounced peace walking because that's all they do,
Speaker 8: is they beat walking.
Speaker 5: Now, this thing says the top reliability. What do you
Speaker 5: think number one is predicted reliability Numero Uno Toyota? Number
Speaker 5: three is that would be Toyota Honja. This isn't fair
Speaker 5: because number two, I'll tell you right now is Lexus,
Speaker 5: same company, But okay, whatever. What do you think number
Speaker 5: one is Honda? Nope, actually Honda's number four. Come on,
Speaker 5: you guys here forgetting the ones generally they're women drivers
Speaker 5: or he got that one well, because I have a
Speaker 5: Super for ages, Yeah, I know a Super.
Speaker 16: Before I would drive into Super, I have to take
Speaker 16: my pants off and put on the.
Speaker 5: Skirt Honda Acurra. I think Honda did something really smart
Speaker 5: when they took Toyota and Honda's model of having their
Speaker 5: normal than their upper scale car when they created Genesis.
Speaker 5: Very smart to do. And then least on here is Rivian.
Speaker 5: Rivian's an electric car. Let me see where Tesla is.
Speaker 5: Tesla is number seventeen and Rivian's number twenty two, which
Speaker 5: is where they end it. Cadillacs twenty one GMC is
Speaker 5: actually twenty, that's pretty crazy. Hondi's ten, Kiya is nine,
Speaker 5: which is crazy because Hondi and Kia are virtually the
Speaker 5: same cars. Mazda is pretty high up there. You know
Speaker 5: what's funny is all the Japanese stuff, all the Japanese stuff.
Speaker 5: The first thing other than Japanese is Audi at number seven.
Speaker 5: That's German, right BMW German. And then Kia and Hondi
Speaker 5: are nine and ten. I'm sorry, Kia and Hondi are
Speaker 5: next to each other, and that's pretty remarkable. What's what's
Speaker 5: the one car you don't want to ever work.
Speaker 8: On SOB, Like, what do you turn a last time
Speaker 8: you even got a call on a SOB?
Speaker 5: They haven't been around anymore. Well, they haven't gotten around,
Speaker 5: but stories for a reason. Ford birt Jaguar, Jaguar, that's right.
Speaker 5: So do they still make Jaguars and they're made by Ford?
Speaker 6: No? No, they're independent again.
Speaker 5: Oh they're independent again, they're not. Chrysler used to do that.
Speaker 5: Chrysler was owned by at one point, and then what
Speaker 5: was the other big company that owned them? It was
Speaker 5: like a bank or somebody by Fiat. What'd you say,
Speaker 5: Kelly Damnlar.
Speaker 6: Chrysler has Mercedes and then Fiat.
Speaker 5: Fiat, jeez, Fiat. Who made the Midget? Was that a Fiat? Yeah?
Speaker 5: The little midget car, a little team convertible. Oh, mg, midget,
Speaker 5: that's right. What's the Fiat? Oh, the Fiat is a
Speaker 5: tiny little.
Speaker 6: Thing like the five hundred and different ones like that.
Speaker 5: Yeah, back in the day, I mean those were everywhere
Speaker 5: in Italy. I mean the little Mini Coopers, I mean
Speaker 5: that with a with actually, but it was a car
Speaker 5: with four wheels. Yeah, that's crazy. The Fia actually, the
Speaker 5: little mild they have it.
Speaker 16: I don't know about the liability, But it looks pretty cool.
Speaker 5: Hey, Rick, what's your comment on cars.
Speaker 24: The convertibles? I was living in out Past, Texas. I
Speaker 24: was in the Army, and they always had dust on
Speaker 24: the floor.
Speaker 5: Yeah, that would make sense if it was I bet
Speaker 5: if it was snow and they had snow on the floor. Huh.
Speaker 24: Well, it never snow within ol Pastle, Texas.
Speaker 5: Yeah, good point. Good point. Actually, it is kind of funny.
Speaker 5: Why would you anywhere where there's a lot of dust
Speaker 5: and stuff? I mean, think of Oklahoma. Actually I lived
Speaker 5: there for I don't really remember seeing convertibles there. Did
Speaker 5: you ever own a convertible?
Speaker 21: Rick?
Speaker 24: Yeah, that's how I was saying those I own the
Speaker 24: sixty three How the soldiers? How poor folk? But my
Speaker 24: first one was the sixty three Ford Mustang. Sorry nice,
Speaker 24: but my first car was sixty seven Chevy and Paula.
Speaker 5: What do you drive now?
Speaker 24: I paid one hundred bucks for.
Speaker 5: Oh man, that's that's before Biden. Yeah, what what do
Speaker 5: you drive now?
Speaker 24: Seventy six?
Speaker 5: What do you drive now?
Speaker 23: The Dodge Caravan?
Speaker 24: Now we buy vans?
Speaker 5: Why why do you buy vans now?
Speaker 24: So we don't have squat the gate in them?
Speaker 5: Oh? I gotcha? How old are you older.
Speaker 24: Sixty nine?
Speaker 5: And how many cars would you guess you've had in
Speaker 5: your lifetime?
Speaker 24: I didn't pay more than a thousand bucks for and
Speaker 24: I had maybe twenty.
Speaker 5: What was your favorite out of all of them?
Speaker 24: I think I'll I like the jeeps cheap, the jeep caravan.
Speaker 24: We had two or three of them.
Speaker 16: We loved them.
Speaker 24: All right, we can go up in the mountain with him.
Speaker 5: Well, very cool, Rick, I appreciate your comment on that.
Speaker 25: Man.
Speaker 5: You have a good weekend, all right, brother, they you too,
Speaker 5: Thank you, sir. Three o three seven one three eight
Speaker 5: two five five Confucius? What do you have to say, Confucius?
Speaker 1: Oh?
Speaker 5: Hello, hello sir?
Speaker 26: Your life beyond the scene I have to do with
Speaker 26: the ballerina. Would I work down there?
Speaker 5: You work at ballerina?
Speaker 6: Yes?
Speaker 5: What do you do at ballerina?
Speaker 26: I worked in the concessions?
Speaker 5: Was it did the Nuggets play there? Last night? They did?
Speaker 5: Was it bad?
Speaker 1: Ass?
Speaker 5: Let were you there last night? Was it insane?
Speaker 1: Yes?
Speaker 14: It were?
Speaker 26: They got to be pretty wild and stuff.
Speaker 5: I bet it was. So you weren't concessions there? What
Speaker 5: is your comment on them?
Speaker 22: Well, basically what they did is it has to do
Speaker 22: with the the uh not giving out unless the people
Speaker 22: ask for either a lid or.
Speaker 26: A straw for their drinks. Yeah, they have to ask first,
Speaker 26: otherwise we don't give them out.
Speaker 5: Hold on, that is curious. I got to take this break.
Speaker 5: I'm trying to think if I own like a convenience store.
Speaker 5: I mean, I'm trying to think of something similar. I mean,
Speaker 5: I could see how it could save money. I'm curious,
Speaker 5: So why it bothers, Confucius?

Speaker 5: I've got to hear this. So Confucius works at ball Arena.
Speaker 5: Am I the only one that always thinks of it
Speaker 5: as Pepsi center. I know that's not right if I
Speaker 5: owned a company and basically with spending all the money,
Speaker 5: but god, it'll always be Pepsi Center to me. But
Speaker 5: go ahead, Confucius. You work there, you work in concessions.
Speaker 5: And I never thought of this before. When you buy
Speaker 5: like a soda pop and you get it, they just
Speaker 5: hand you it and they won't give you a straw
Speaker 5: or a lid unless you ask for it. I'm sure
Speaker 5: that's because they're trying to save money or they're trying
Speaker 5: to save the earth. But well, let's see what that's.
Speaker 5: I'm just guessing.
Speaker 25: Go ahead, that's what it is.
Speaker 26: They're trying to save I think basically the earth.
Speaker 5: You know what, Confucius, I get you, but I want
Speaker 5: to say something that we're going to bring in a
Speaker 5: recycler to this. But actually, before I talk, I want
Speaker 5: to hear. I want you to continue. Go ahead. So
Speaker 5: that's why they do it. But what's your problem with it?
Speaker 26: Oh, I have nothing to do with it. I just
Speaker 26: give it to them no matter what.
Speaker 5: Yeah, but why are you calling about it? It must
Speaker 5: irritate you.
Speaker 26: Well, it's there. They're just coming down on. They're also
Speaker 26: trying to save product, and the ballerina is saying there's
Speaker 26: too much trish around there and too much letter and stuff.
Speaker 5: So they're saying it's overhead. So they're really not doing
Speaker 5: it because it's green, right.
Speaker 26: I think they're doing it just because they're holding back
Speaker 26: on Both are just doing, you know, recycling for themselves.
Speaker 5: And they're saying, I think, listen, that's just.
Speaker 26: To do with legends. It has to do with been
Speaker 26: trying to recycling all.
Speaker 5: That, but you don't. But I'm still trying to get
Speaker 5: to why you're calling about it. Though it drives you
Speaker 5: nuts that you just can't put a lid and a
Speaker 5: straw in it.
Speaker 26: Yeah, okay, a lot of people, a lot of the
Speaker 26: employees think it's kind of crazy. That it is crazy.
Speaker 5: Then if some nut next to me spills it on me,
Speaker 5: I'm not happy. I know. I promise thee I'm going
Speaker 5: to give you so much. He is so perched it's crazy.
Speaker 5: But I want to say this about it. I think
Speaker 5: it's purely to save money. It's less straws, less lids.
Speaker 5: Granted that's not a lot of money. I don't think
Speaker 5: it has anything to do with being green. Although I
Speaker 5: think the PEPSI, although I think ball Arena would tell
Speaker 5: you that they are doing it for the environment. I
Speaker 5: related to this. These hotels you go to. We just
Speaker 5: went to one in Nashville, Virgin Hotel, beautiful hotel. But
Speaker 5: unless you tell them you want your bed made every
Speaker 5: day and new towels every day, they won't do it
Speaker 5: because it's not good for the earth. They won't change
Speaker 5: your linens out because it's not good for the earth.
Speaker 5: I call bs on it. They do it to save money.
Speaker 5: It's got nothing to do with being green. My god,
Speaker 5: that guy owns an airline. There's nothing is there's nothing
Speaker 5: not green compared to Virgin Airlines. But yet his hotels,
Speaker 5: his damn hotels, that they want to change out your
Speaker 5: towels every three days.
Speaker 19: So I worked in a hotel for eight years, man,
Speaker 19: I tell you that it is a total misnomer.
Speaker 5: They're not doing that.
Speaker 19: It's because people seal the towels and sealed it and
Speaker 19: you have to buy towels.
Speaker 5: What hotel did you work at, Adam's Mark? Adam's Mark said,
Speaker 5: a nice hotel. I've never heard of it. A nice motel.
Speaker 19: Six Well, no, it's now the Sheridan.
Speaker 5: See here's what I'd say. Here's the thing, Here's what
Speaker 5: I the towels. Who the hell steals towels? Kelly, have
Speaker 5: have you ever stolen the towel?
Speaker 19: I have not, but I'm not going to say that.
Speaker 19: I'm not married to someone who has.
Speaker 5: Oh my god, have you guys literally ever stolen Who
Speaker 5: the hell wants a hotel towel? Now you go to
Speaker 5: the Waldorf some nice towels, but you're not going to
Speaker 5: steal a towel. Who the hell's going to steal a towel?
Speaker 5: It's Carlton beautiful towels.
Speaker 19: You know that kind of stuff.
Speaker 5: Like I said, I best Western. I imagine stealing a
Speaker 5: Motel six washcloth. Let me tell you, if you're at
Speaker 5: the point in your life where you steal a Motel
Speaker 5: six washcloth, you are one step away from being homeless.
Speaker 5: Con I'm going to put you on hold now. I
Speaker 5: want to ask Dmitri two things. And here's why you're
Speaker 5: in the recycling business. I am so Number one. I
Speaker 5: don't understand this. Ballerina. Hey, I'm sorry. Oh I thought
Speaker 5: he was flashing me saying I got a break. Ballerina
Speaker 5: now uses those metal clop I love them. And I
Speaker 5: think they keep things colder, and I'll let you do that.
Speaker 5: But the second thing is what do you think of
Speaker 5: the metal cups there? Just being a recycler. I know
Speaker 5: you primarily do cardboard, but you know the whole game.
Speaker 5: You know the whole game. And then what do you
Speaker 5: think about what he's saying when it comes to the
Speaker 5: lid and straws? Just just spill it.
Speaker 12: Well, Mark, if i'd just say it correctly, Confucius say,
Speaker 12: if man wants straw, he must ask for it.
Speaker 5: Yes, and lid and lid.
Speaker 12: Now it turns out that it's not ball Arena maximizing
Speaker 12: their profit on concession sales. There's a Denver City ordinance
Speaker 12: that went in effect in January of twenty two. Of
Speaker 12: course there was, and they address single use items in
Speaker 12: the context of food service. Yes, but only only in
Speaker 12: what catchup packets.
Speaker 5: No, no, no, But I'm saying, hold on, Demitri, I
Speaker 5: don't understand. They must have carved out everything in the world,
Speaker 5: because if I go to McDonald's, the lids are right there.
Speaker 5: If I go to seven eleven, the lids are right there.
Speaker 12: Why they're right there if the vendor provides you with
Speaker 12: a lid or a catch a packet or a straw
Speaker 12: or a napkin. They have to wait for you to
Speaker 12: ask for that. Not at Denver, they're not allowed to
Speaker 12: provide single use items by ordinance.
Speaker 5: Well, in customer, I don't understand what you're saying. If
Speaker 5: I go to a McDonald's in Denver, I have to
Speaker 5: ask for a lid going through the drive through for
Speaker 5: a soda.
Speaker 12: Yes, unless unless they violate the ordinance, which I suspect
Speaker 12: almost everybody does. But it's a single use item and
Speaker 12: they're required to wait for you to ask for it.
Speaker 5: There is no way if I go through a drive through. Now,
Speaker 5: first of all, there's no way, Dmitri, There's no way
Speaker 5: this can be correct. Listen to this. I'm reading directly
Speaker 5: from the City of Denver website. They must have carved
Speaker 5: out every drive.
Speaker 12: For all retail food establishments to provide single use condiments
Speaker 12: and single use service war only upon request by a
Speaker 12: custom So.
Speaker 5: Wait a minute, Wait a minute. I go through what's
Speaker 5: one of the fast food Chinese places that's got to
Speaker 5: drive through? Give me something here, guys Express, Panda Express,
Speaker 5: and I order the chop suey they're gonna hand me.
Speaker 5: They're gonna hand MEU.
Speaker 12: Guy chop suey is like macaroni and beat sauce.
Speaker 5: Just whatever I order, whatever it is, and you're not
Speaker 5: gonna get it. They're not gonna give me silverware. And
Speaker 5: I order a coke, They're gonna hand me a coke
Speaker 5: with no lid, no straw, just a coke. They're gonna
Speaker 5: hand me Chinese food, whatever it is. Let's say beef
Speaker 5: with broccoli. So my beef with broccoli doesn't come with
Speaker 5: utensils because I got to ask for utensils and a napkin.
Speaker 12: Well, uh, you ask two questions. Actually will they do
Speaker 12: it or are they allowed to do it?
Speaker 13: No?
Speaker 5: Is there anyone in the world, because if I open
Speaker 5: my bag up and there was no way for me
Speaker 5: to eat, you're gonna go ballistic. Somebody's gonna be wearing
Speaker 5: that chops. I think I think you're taking they give
Speaker 5: you that stuff. You're violating whatever you're reading wrongly, you're
Speaker 5: taking it wrongly. Hold, let's get the city on the

Speaker 26: Well, I want to say that I believe that maybe
Speaker 26: some of the customers also want Liz, because you never
Speaker 26: know what somebody else could drop, dropping a look in
Speaker 26: the cup.
Speaker 5: Yeah, we were in Nashville, Confucius. I was in Nashville
Speaker 5: for a Metallica concert with some listeners and friends. There
Speaker 5: was like fourteen of us and we went to kid
Speaker 5: Rocks bar there, which is like four stories, and we're
Speaker 5: all pretty sure one of the gals got a roof feed. Now,
Speaker 5: she was with the group the whole time, but she
Speaker 5: wasn't drinking much. She couldn't basically, she couldn't walk. It
Speaker 5: was pretty scary stuff. Honestly, she was fine and she
Speaker 5: didn't have like a hangover in the morning, none of
Speaker 5: the signs of drinking too much. And you're absolutely right, man.
Speaker 5: If that's an open cup, people can throw a little
Speaker 5: pill or a little thing in there and it dissolves
Speaker 5: and you have no idea. Good good point, man, good point, Confucius. Hey,
Speaker 5: is it true you really said all those quotes we read?
Speaker 2: Excuse me?
Speaker 5: Is it true? You always. You are the one that
Speaker 5: said all those quotes we read, you know, Confucius say,
Speaker 5: is that you?
Speaker 26: Well, I just kind of threw that name man, you know.
Speaker 5: Oh okay, hey, you have a good day, man, I
Speaker 5: appreciate it. Keep up the good work there too, I
Speaker 5: will say the concessions there. You guys do move people
Speaker 5: through the line pretty good. And you get to actually
Speaker 5: check the game out too, right.
Speaker 26: Well, somewhat we're not allowed to inside the ball or
Speaker 26: inside the ball, and that inside the arena itself anymore.
Speaker 26: To cut that out.
Speaker 5: Oh that's such. You can't walk in there and peak,
Speaker 5: not like they were used to. Oh man, hey, man,
Speaker 5: I really do. I do appreciate I got a free
Speaker 5: up there. Three oh three seven, one, three, eight, two
Speaker 5: five five two lines. I want them full three oh
Speaker 5: three Martino, you've been ripped off. The big dog's about
Speaker 5: to step in and go after the bad guys. Hey, Greg,
Speaker 5: what is going on with this supercharger?
Speaker 13: Right?
Speaker 27: I just had a general question. The guys have said
Speaker 27: the turbo chargers reduced the lifespan of an engine, and
Speaker 27: I was wondering if superchargers are as bad as turbo chargers.
Speaker 5: Guys, And then one of you tell me last week
Speaker 5: or the week before. There's a car now that starts
Speaker 5: off with the supercharger and has a turbo land the
Speaker 5: land Rover. Yeah, that's incredible.
Speaker 7: An electric supercharger that kicks out when the turbo kicks in.
Speaker 5: So explain, explain the wear and tear on engines. Does
Speaker 5: it matter? Go ahead?
Speaker 7: You know, I think it does. They both do the
Speaker 7: same thing where it's just the over overperformance of an
Speaker 7: engine that's not designed to do what it's doing. You know,
Speaker 7: So does it work, yes, but it's like a race car.
Speaker 7: They tear those down and rebuild them after.
Speaker 5: A lot of these.
Speaker 16: Could you tell us that it.
Speaker 7: Compresses air and just just you know, a fat or
Speaker 7: mixture if you will.
Speaker 6: It's just for dens.
Speaker 5: They're generally belt driven, right or something they're driven.
Speaker 8: There's traditional ones, a belt driven out a supercharger. You know,
Speaker 8: it gives you power off the line.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and then the turbo when you're moving exactly because
Speaker 5: the turbo they really do the exact same thing. They
Speaker 5: shove more air into the engine and but it when
Speaker 5: you're just sitting there, turbo is going to do nothing
Speaker 5: because there's no air covering there's.
Speaker 6: No air comings because they usual the exhaust to do it.
Speaker 5: So that land rower, that's pretty cool.
Speaker 6: Yep. I couldn't imagine want to work on one of
Speaker 6: those stuff.
Speaker 5: No I could. It's just another thing to break, but
Speaker 5: it's got to be. It's got to be pretty cool.
Speaker 6: Yep.
Speaker 5: The other thing, Greg, is my RXA. I'm going to
Speaker 5: give you a perfect example of where I wish I
Speaker 5: had a supercharger. That thing could get up to one
Speaker 5: hundred and fifty plus. The top end was great, but
Speaker 5: the bottom end going off. Man, that little wankle you
Speaker 5: could rev up, but man, it's not a fast car.
Speaker 5: Off the bat, that thing could go forever. In fact,
Speaker 5: if there wasn't a governor on it, I'm not sure
Speaker 5: you could break that thing. How about these diesels though,
Speaker 5: I think without a turbo charger or a supercharger, these
Speaker 5: things wouldn't even move.
Speaker 6: No, you need them.
Speaker 5: So for a diesel you have to have one.
Speaker 6: Oh that's designed for it?
Speaker 7: No, I get yeah, these I think they're putting on
Speaker 7: engines that are really not designed.
Speaker 5: Great, you got to you got any questions? No?
Speaker 27: No, Well, it's just at altitude you lose what ten
Speaker 27: percent of your power with a regularly aspirated engine.
Speaker 5: That's why I'm asking me question. You know, he brings
Speaker 5: something up too. When I was shopping for a little
Speaker 5: Enduro motorcycle, I bought a little two fifty I think
Speaker 5: is Suzuki. I forget what brand I bought, but they
Speaker 5: had two different ones at the time. One of them
Speaker 5: had a carburetor, this only a few years ago, and
Speaker 5: then the other one was fuel injection. And the guy
Speaker 5: up at fay Myers was like, Nope, you definitely want
Speaker 5: to fuel injection if you're going up into the mountains
Speaker 5: a lot. He says, we can tune the carb for
Speaker 5: down here, but when you go up into the mountains
Speaker 5: or when you go down to sea level, you're gonna
Speaker 5: have problems where the fuel injection does it automatically? Listen,
Speaker 5: big dog Martino coming up, one line open get in
Speaker 5: now three oh three seven one three eight two five
Speaker 5: five three oho three Martino. I'll be back Monday. Thanks guys,

Speaker 11: thrilled that you're doing so well.
Speaker 20: God bless you.
Speaker 25: Thank you, Chickley.
Speaker 2: I have to thank you.
Speaker 11: I've saved a little bit of money back when I
Speaker 11: pass I would have passed it on to my family.
Speaker 11: I would like to know what I should do now
Speaker 11: while I'm still on the earth, to protect it so
Speaker 11: they won't have to pay taxes or be his with
Speaker 11: whatever could come.
Speaker 13: Yes, legally, okay, okay, Linda. First of all, how old
Speaker 13: are you?
Speaker 11: Seventy four?
Speaker 1: Sure?
Speaker 13: Seventy four? Okay? And what about the money? How much
Speaker 13: do you have in total assets and cash and everything
Speaker 13: to the positives?
Speaker 25: Yes, it's about four hundred thousand.
Speaker 5: Okay.
Speaker 13: Now let me give you some good news. They won't
Speaker 13: have to pay taxes on any of it. You can
Speaker 13: leave millions and millions of dollars without any estate tax.
Speaker 13: It's called an exclusion, and you're well under it and
Speaker 13: likely you're not going to reach I believe it's now
Speaker 13: sixteen million.
Speaker 5: Here's the bottom line.
Speaker 13: You have nothing to do except protect that four hundred k.
Speaker 13: What form is that four hundred thousand dollars taking? Is
Speaker 13: it cash property? Tell me about the four hundred k?
Speaker 13: Break it down?
Speaker 11: Is it a managed to counselor by fidelity?
Speaker 5: Okay?
Speaker 13: Now, one thing I do want to tell you one thing.
Speaker 13: I do want to tell you, and I want to
Speaker 13: give you a disclosure. As you know, I have a
Speaker 13: wealth management company and I do not want you ever
Speaker 13: to think I'm trying to steer you to my company.
Speaker 28: But I will tell you this.
Speaker 13: Your account is not managed at Fidelity. It is there,
Speaker 13: and they tell you it's managed, but it's not. They
Speaker 13: don't know Linda from a hole in the wall. They
Speaker 13: don't know what you want, what your goals are, what
Speaker 13: your long term Did they ever consult with you on anything?
Speaker 11: Well, twice a year we have a meeting. Sure, my
Speaker 11: husband passed to it myself.
Speaker 28: Now, no, that's okay, Linda.
Speaker 13: I suggest that you get someone who who personally personally
Speaker 13: takes care of your account for you with you. Now
Speaker 13: listen again. I don't want to brag, but I think
Speaker 13: we're one of the few firms that really do that.
Speaker 13: But if you can find someone will who will take
Speaker 13: Linda and they take Linda's account and say, Okay, Linda
Speaker 13: needs some of this, some of this, She needs it.
Speaker 28: She wants it to go.
Speaker 5: To her heirs.
Speaker 28: Here's what she wants to do.
Speaker 13: These fidelities and Edward Jones and all these big firms,
Speaker 13: they don't manage money for people. People think they're managed.
Speaker 13: They are managed in giant portfolios, and they put you
Speaker 13: in a group of people that meet your criteria. I'm
Speaker 13: not telling you they're not they're bad. They're not bad.
Speaker 13: They just don't give you that personal level of service.
Speaker 13: So if I were you and I had four hundred
Speaker 13: thousand dollars, how much of that is in home equity?
Speaker 2: Nine?
Speaker 13: Okay, so that four hundred k is liquid and you
Speaker 13: have it managed right now? I think you really do
Speaker 13: have to have it managed. And what I would suggest
Speaker 13: for you right now at seventy four is you want
Speaker 13: to be a bit more conservative, not totally, but you
Speaker 13: have time to let that grow. And there. How are
Speaker 13: you doing for income yourself? Will you need this four
Speaker 13: hundred thousand?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 11: No, no, I will not. So I'm still working, So
Speaker 11: and Tom. That only confidentally came through because I was
Speaker 11: a banker for twenty five years, so I kind of
Speaker 11: scrolled away.
Speaker 26: Okay a little bit, you know.
Speaker 5: Okay, So now.
Speaker 13: What I suggest Wave eight wealth Management.
Speaker 28: Now here's what I want to tell you.
Speaker 13: What we would do with that four hundred thousand, depending
Speaker 13: on your risk tolerance and your age.
Speaker 5: We would probably put it into.
Speaker 13: Some moderate ETF exchange traded funds which have a variety
Speaker 13: which kind of follow a stock market index. But we
Speaker 13: would also probably get you some growth without a lot
Speaker 13: of risk. And then we would set up beneficiaries to
Speaker 13: bypass your estate to go to whatever airs you want,
Speaker 13: and we would hook you up. See, we take care
Speaker 13: of the whole thing. But again, I'm.
Speaker 28: Not telling you you'd need us.
Speaker 5: I promise you.
Speaker 13: I don't want to ever turn the show into a
Speaker 13: but but what I'm saying is, no matter what, no
Speaker 13: matter what, we would I'd love to see what Fidelity
Speaker 13: is doing for you. And who knows, it might be
Speaker 13: really good. I mean, are you getting growth every year?
Speaker 20: Yeah?
Speaker 11: Yeah, but you know there's always okay.
Speaker 13: Well, I'll tell you what we would be happy, happy
Speaker 13: to go over what you're doing. And again, it's not
Speaker 13: difficult in your situation. Yours is very simple. You have
Speaker 13: a lump of money you want to save, you want
Speaker 13: to preserve, and that's easy, that's really easy to do.
Speaker 13: We can get you good growth and say and and
Speaker 13: and principal protection. But the main part of your question
Speaker 13: about taxes, The good news is Linda, you don't have
Speaker 13: to worry about any taxes on that. Do you have
Speaker 13: a will?
Speaker 11: Of course, yes, sir, okay, and.
Speaker 13: Do you name did you name your When was the
Speaker 13: last time you checked your will and updated it?
Speaker 2: Well?

Speaker 28: But thank you, Rick.
Speaker 13: I know what you're I know what you mean, and
Speaker 13: I appreciate the thought. So fuel additives do you use them?
Speaker 1: Right?
Speaker 23: Yeah? Well that's my question Uncle Kevin. So yeah, Kevin,
Speaker 23: have you heard of h G S Bible five CRS.
Speaker 15: C R S.
Speaker 6: C RF.
Speaker 23: It isn't flag.
Speaker 6: I haven't.
Speaker 23: Okay, it's out of a Elbuquerque of a laboratory in Elbuquerque.
Speaker 23: I saw it on a Scott Kilmer video on YouTube.
Speaker 23: Supposedly it's a little bit even better than BG products.
Speaker 23: I know your place over there on Colfax.
Speaker 2: Uses a BG.
Speaker 6: Yeah we do, can we do?
Speaker 7: And there's a lot a lot of good additives that
Speaker 7: are coming out and they're changing all the time. Yeah,
Speaker 7: so it's kind of hard to keep up with who's
Speaker 7: you know, which one's snake all, which one's not. But
Speaker 7: you know that one's very expensive from what I understand.
Speaker 16: Yes it is.
Speaker 23: It's about forty eight to fifty dollars for the container yep.
Speaker 28: And what is the container good for? How many fill ups?
Speaker 23: Uh? Well, I supposely from what I've read, something like
Speaker 23: ten to twenty thousand miles.
Speaker 7: Well it goes in one, thankful, I think, is what
Speaker 7: it is. So it's fifty bucks an application.
Speaker 23: Oh oh in that regard, Yeah, yes, yeah, just like.
Speaker 13: Man, that's expensive, an extra fifty dollars for a tank.
Speaker 13: Do you do it every tank full or you do
Speaker 13: it once a month or once a year?
Speaker 5: What is it?
Speaker 6: Yeah?
Speaker 23: I'm not good, I'm not that familiar with the I
Speaker 23: did read somewhere whereas like ten to twenty thousand miles
Speaker 23: every ten to twenty thousand miles, they're supposed to do
Speaker 23: a superior job with getting the carbon offer. So my
Speaker 23: other question is this, Kevin, is I just had an
Speaker 23: oil change done. I have a two ten malabu or
Speaker 23: cylinder YEP. It has one hundred and ninety two thousand
Speaker 23: miles on it. I have put I've owned the car
Speaker 23: brand new. I put nothing but top tier Costco gas
Speaker 23: in it. Change the oil everywhere eye from five to
Speaker 23: seven thousand miles for the life of the car. And
Speaker 23: they were recommended that I put the MLA in it.
Speaker 6: But I get it, it could never hurt.
Speaker 2: Well, I get it.
Speaker 23: That's another problem motive, and I don't really have a
Speaker 23: problem with that part of it. But I had been
Speaker 23: keeping up on this car ever since I bought it,
Speaker 23: and I kept thinking, I don't think I actually even
Speaker 23: need the MOA.
Speaker 7: Not at this point. I think you've been doing just
Speaker 7: fine without it. So why you know why sweits now?
Speaker 6: Yeah?
Speaker 23: Okay, Well that was one of the other questions that
Speaker 23: I had that.
Speaker 13: In general, Kevin, Kevin and Jeff in general in general,
Speaker 13: let me just ask, how do you feel about oil
Speaker 13: additives and gas additives in general?
Speaker 6: In general?
Speaker 7: I just think, you know, the generic ones that you
Speaker 7: just see for ninety nine cents, you know at the
Speaker 7: walmarts and places are garbage. You know, a good quality additive,
Speaker 7: I'm all for them. It's just extra layer of protection.
Speaker 7: Why not you know an engine?
Speaker 5: What do they do well?
Speaker 6: The super lub what do they do? Like?
Speaker 7: The MOA is a super lubricant and it keeps from
Speaker 7: you know, edge of sledge from forming and everything. You know,
Speaker 7: common engine Now it's fifteen grand, you know, a ten
Speaker 7: dollars bottle, you know, and every other world change is
Speaker 7: cheap insurance for an engine.
Speaker 13: And do you like oil additives better or gasoline additives?
Speaker 7: Oil more than anything? Because I think the oil takes
Speaker 7: a beating. There's a lot of good gasolines out there.
Speaker 7: I think keep thinks pretty clean. So I tend okay,
Speaker 7: so speak to the oil and not so much on
Speaker 7: the field.
Speaker 13: So how much would a good additive add to every
Speaker 13: oil change?
Speaker 6: Twelve to fifteen bucks?
Speaker 5: And you say it's well worth it? I think it is, yes, okay, Rick?
Speaker 13: Any other questions?
Speaker 23: No, that was basically it. Thank you so much, Tom,
Speaker 23: and I wish you thanks help.
Speaker 28: Thank you man, I appreciate it.
Speaker 5: Okay.
Speaker 13: So the bottom line is this, if you have a
Speaker 13: car that's new and you do it from new, is
Speaker 13: it better or does it give better protection than if
Speaker 13: you get a used car and start using it. How
Speaker 13: do you guys feel about that?
Speaker 6: Well?
Speaker 8: I would say certainly if you start from the beginning
Speaker 8: use it, you know, trying to keep it healthy at
Speaker 8: the beginning. You know, if a used car, whether it's
Speaker 8: your used car or you know when you picked up used,
Speaker 8: you don't know how that thing was treated. So you know,
Speaker 8: giving it the most TLC, you cans everything you can
Speaker 8: do to help keep it on the road.
Speaker 13: But is there any truth to I heard some people
Speaker 13: say if you use a good additive after the cars
Speaker 13: has several miles on it and a car that you
Speaker 13: buy used, you could be actually hurting the car because
Speaker 13: it gets rid of all that and it gets it
Speaker 13: and you know what I'm saying, it cuts loose some
Speaker 13: of that stuff.
Speaker 6: Is that truly?
Speaker 8: And BG even makes you know, like an engine restore,
Speaker 8: but you know it both for you know, gasoline and diesels,
Speaker 8: because that stuff is going to build up that sludge
Speaker 8: and it's going to start clogging up rings and everything else,
Speaker 8: and you want to break that stuff free and get
Speaker 8: it out of there and get more optimal performance.
Speaker 13: Could they actually have have Do they actually have studies that,
Speaker 13: oh it really does work?
Speaker 28: Have you guys ever seen studies they have?
Speaker 6: They have an extensive amount of studies. Yes.
Speaker 7: Yeah, they've been around for a long long time, at
Speaker 7: least thirty thirty five years, So they're not well.
Speaker 28: In fact, if you well, it's the only thing I get.
Speaker 13: Every single mechanic I've ever talked to agrees Yep, that
Speaker 13: BG has the best products.
Speaker 7: Yeah, they're consistent and they work. Then there's no snake oil.
Speaker 7: It's just all quality stuff.
Speaker 13: If you had to pick, if you had to pick
Speaker 13: a label second to BG, what would it be.
Speaker 6: I've been stuck with BG so long. I haven't haven't.
Speaker 6: I don't have a plan B.
Speaker 13: Now, BG makes fuel additives, oil additives, cooling.
Speaker 28: What else do they have anything for the cooling system?
Speaker 6: Yep? Para steering everything.
Speaker 5: Yeah, wow.

Speaker 2: Apple exchanged it for me. Still doesn't work.

Speaker 14: wait and wait.
Speaker 26: And wait, Maryam.
Speaker 13: That does not mary Am, Mariam, that does not sound
Speaker 13: like the phone phone problem. It sounds like your service,
Speaker 13: your T Mobile service. Let me ask you something before
Speaker 13: you had this phone, What kind of phone did you
Speaker 13: have before?
Speaker 1: This.
Speaker 14: I had Apple.
Speaker 2: Ten R and it was okay.
Speaker 14: But I lost my husband a few months ago, and

Speaker 13: have T Mobile?
Speaker 2: Yes, we both live and you know we live together.
Speaker 14: She's using the same network and she has no problem
Speaker 14: at all. But with my phone, as I said, even
Speaker 14: Apple exchanged it once.
Speaker 2: But it doesn't work.
Speaker 13: See that's what makes me feel like it might not
Speaker 13: be where are you trying to?
Speaker 18: It might not be the phone trying to use it
Speaker 18: at home? So you're on a Wi Fi network, so
Speaker 18: maybe the Wi Fi network is down, so you were
Speaker 18: lying become to.
Speaker 14: Wi Fi network works for my sister who lives with me,
Speaker 14: but not for me. How come the Wi Fi system
Speaker 14: I had.
Speaker 18: You've got the proper Wi Fi network and password?
Speaker 14: Yes everything?
Speaker 25: You know?
Speaker 13: Where tell me this? Where are you located? I don't
Speaker 13: want your address? But an Aurora?
Speaker 5: Okay?
Speaker 14: Across from Cherry Cherry Creek State Park.
Speaker 13: Okay, when you take when you take your phone out
Speaker 13: around the metro area, does it improve in any areas?
Speaker 14: When I go to, for instance, Park Meadow, I go
Speaker 14: there for shopping. Sometimes Park Meadow, I have the same problem.
Speaker 13: Honestly, does it ever work? Does it ever work perfectly anywhere?
Speaker 14: No, not that I know of.
Speaker 16: I have a question, Mariam, now that when you went
Speaker 16: to the Apple store, did you try see if it
Speaker 16: works there?
Speaker 14: Well? They what do you call it? They work with
Speaker 14: it a little bit diagnosed. What do they call their service?
Speaker 2: Diagnostic service?
Speaker 14: And it works there and they say it's fine, And
Speaker 14: when I come home it doesn't work. They even at
Speaker 14: Apple Cherry Creek Mall they.
Speaker 2: Exchanged it for me.
Speaker 14: That was kind of them, But then it's the same thing.
Speaker 13: I think even I don't think Mariam, there's nothing technically
Speaker 13: that would explain this.
Speaker 14: See I'm sorry to interrupt you. I apologize this. It
Speaker 14: is a T mobile store in Park Meadows. Said we
Speaker 14: had some problem with.
Speaker 9: Them, Yeah, but they exchanged it.
Speaker 13: It doesn't make sense that you would have problems like this. Well,
Speaker 13: it doesn't matter who exchanged it.
Speaker 2: I go, well, they fixed. I come home, it doesn't work, Mariam.
Speaker 6: Have you asked him?
Speaker 12: Have you checked to see if they'll switch you out
Speaker 12: into a totally different kind of phone?
Speaker 14: I ask I. Even I'm willing to pay more for
Speaker 14: Apple Pro.
Speaker 18: Sixteen, maybe that won't help versus an Apple phone.
Speaker 13: I listen, guys, I think there's something in the settings
Speaker 13: or something.
Speaker 5: It's it's just not logical.
Speaker 14: Missus Martinez. They even put in a new SIM card.
Speaker 28: And yeah, that I don't think.
Speaker 13: I don't think it's the phone, Mariam, I don't think
Speaker 13: it's the phone.
Speaker 14: But how come I it's Wi Fi?
Speaker 2: Would the network is bad?
Speaker 14: How come my sister works with Apple Phone so well?
Speaker 13: I didn't say the network was bad. I'm just I
Speaker 13: don't think it's the phone. They gave you a new phone,
Speaker 13: they gave you a new SIM card. I mean, why
Speaker 13: would the same problem persist. It's not the phone. Well,
Speaker 13: it's not the phone. It's logical. You're not going to
Speaker 13: have the same exact problems with two phones, especially with
Speaker 13: a new SIM card. It's logical.
Speaker 28: It's not the phone.
Speaker 13: We know that iPhone sixteen's are not defective.
Speaker 28: They're not.
Speaker 13: It's not the phone you have to start looking at
Speaker 13: the service. And it is very possible that your service,
Speaker 13: that your sister service is a level down from yours,
Speaker 13: or yours is trying to connect?
Speaker 28: Is yours?
Speaker 5: What is yours? Five G?
Speaker 2: What do you mean to level down?
Speaker 6: Okay?
Speaker 13: What I mean is this, some older phones will talk
Speaker 13: to the network easier than the newer phones, or the
Speaker 13: network might be Oh god, I can tell you that
Speaker 13: if you've gotten two phones in a row, it's not
Speaker 13: the phone.
Speaker 28: It's just not.
Speaker 17: Does anyone it doesn't work?
Speaker 5: Can anyone?
Speaker 14: Can anyone hundred dollars getting a phone does not work?
Speaker 2: And I'll be okay with it. Nobody is it's.
Speaker 5: Been full You're right.
Speaker 18: Five months. The phone fine in the store. So something
Speaker 18: is wrong in your home. So you're not connected to
Speaker 18: something in your home?
Speaker 13: I eat, no, no, no, she said. It doesn't work
Speaker 13: at Park Meadows either, Mariam. Does it ever work anywhere?
Speaker 13: Does it ever work anywhere?
Speaker 14: Mister Martinez, you have in the past have helped me,
Speaker 14: and I'm very grateful to you. It never worked anywhere.
Speaker 18: You took it to the store. It worked fine in
Speaker 18: the store. The Apple people.
Speaker 13: Hey, guys, guys, I think we need someone to visit her.
Speaker 13: I really mean this, I really do.
Speaker 14: Apple story in Cherry Creek again.
Speaker 13: Actually, you could come to our office when we're in
Speaker 13: the studio and someone can help you look at it.
Speaker 28: I just think it's.
Speaker 14: Not Yeah, I like another one.
Speaker 2: I mean it's.
Speaker 13: Did you ask them about trading it in? Did you
Speaker 13: ask them about trading it in?
Speaker 14: Neither Apple nor the T Mobile would do it. If
Speaker 14: you would help me to go to Apple and get
Speaker 14: another phone, I would.
Speaker 2: It's not going to be appreciated.
Speaker 13: It's not going to be your phone. It's not going
Speaker 13: to be your phone, Miriam, It's not going to be
Speaker 13: your phone.
Speaker 2: Never had this problem, sir, Believe me.
Speaker 28: Believe me now, Miriam.
Speaker 13: Does anyone else listen, don't worry about it. It's only technology.
Speaker 13: We'll get this fixed. But I need to ask another question.
Speaker 13: Does any one else hear what you hear on your
Speaker 13: phone and acknowledge it?
Speaker 14: Right now I'm talking about it. I'm speaking on my
Speaker 14: landline because my.
Speaker 2: Phone doesn't know here.
Speaker 13: Here's what I'm asking. Does anyone call they? Does anyone
Speaker 13: have your phone? Did you ever hand your phone to
Speaker 13: someone and they can see what you're talking about?
Speaker 1: Now?
Speaker 28: Can you call us?
Speaker 13: Miriam. Can we call you, Miriam? Can we call you
Speaker 13: on your cell phone right now?
Speaker 1: Yes?
Speaker 2: Absolutely?

Speaker 13: on hold. Hey, D, Deputy D. Can you call her?
Speaker 6: Yeah?
Speaker 5: Can you call her? Yeah?
Speaker 13: And I want to see what happens during that exchange
Speaker 13: and if there's a problem that you can discern. Just
Speaker 13: for the heck of it, I don't think it's the phone.
Speaker 12: Yeah, I'll wait for Kelly to get me Miriam's phone
Speaker 12: number and I'll call her immediately.

Speaker 13: forty five years and fifty years elsewhere as well. So
Speaker 13: it's been a long, long time, longest running radio show.
Speaker 13: Let's get to the phones and try to help. David
Speaker 13: said he's putting in a security system. He's looking for broadband.
Speaker 13: People call him Internet providers. They are broadband is made
Speaker 13: is made for more than just the Internet. It's just
Speaker 13: as a pipe into your house. And right now we
Speaker 13: have a lot more choices than we used to have.
Speaker 13: There used to be a lot of little internet providers
Speaker 13: and now there's bigger ones with better service. And David,
Speaker 13: I want to ask, what have you been doing up
Speaker 13: till now for internet service?
Speaker 15: I have only used a tablet or a phone, And
Speaker 15: obviously they don't recommend using a hotspot or that you've
Speaker 15: got to get something hooked up. I know I should
Speaker 15: get with it, but I haven't.
Speaker 13: I just no, that's okay, So you've been using cell service.
Speaker 13: You've been using cell service so far?
Speaker 5: Correct.
Speaker 28: Okay, So this internet.
Speaker 13: Service provider, which we call broadband provider, there are there
Speaker 13: are a number of choices. I'm going to tell you
Speaker 13: some of them. Comcast is one, which is Exfinity. Then
Speaker 13: you have Centry Link is another, Starlink which is Elon
Speaker 13: Musk's thing. That's that's another option, and then you might have,
Speaker 13: depending on where you are, other providers.
Speaker 28: What are you going to be using the broadband for?
Speaker 13: For your home TVs, your security system, your your home internet?
Speaker 5: Right?
Speaker 15: Yeah, basically just for the security I don't want a
Speaker 15: lot of television.
Speaker 9: So so if you if you need it just for
Speaker 9: a security system, why do you I need to know
Speaker 9: why you need it for your security system.
Speaker 13: Broadband is not required for security. What kind of system
Speaker 13: do you have.
Speaker 15: About a blink outdoor for I believe it's called and uh.
Speaker 15: I try to hook it up and follow what they
Speaker 15: were telling me to do, and then it just keeps,
Speaker 15: you know, putting me back to square one and doesn't
Speaker 15: work that way. And then I called the uh uh
Speaker 15: uh the tech service, and then they said you need
Speaker 15: broadband or you need service.
Speaker 13: First of all home They said you need you need
Speaker 13: a home network basically correct.
Speaker 28: Yes, Okay, what part of town are you in?
Speaker 15: Very It's like southeast Dever right on the Cusp with
Speaker 15: Aurora in that area.
Speaker 28: Okay, I know right where you are.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, I would go.
Speaker 13: If I were you, I would simply call Exfinity excuse me,
Speaker 13: I know, say I would, and I would do Sentry link.
Speaker 12: David, I Tom, I have a great recommendation for David. David,
Speaker 12: who's your self service provider?
Speaker 15: The self service?
Speaker 5: Yeah, who's your cell service?
Speaker 1: With?
Speaker 5: What company?
Speaker 15: They're sort of like a connection with a collaboration or something.
Speaker 15: T Mobile got involved and it used to be someone else.
Speaker 5: But yes, well here's why I bring that up.
Speaker 12: I use I have my cell services with Verizon and
Speaker 12: for twenty five bucks extra per month, they offered me
Speaker 12: full on high speed five G Internet for my home
Speaker 12: and it's been working beautifully. I think I've signed up
Speaker 12: for that about three years ago, and I can't tell
Speaker 12: you how happy I am. I have great connectivity, speed
Speaker 12: for both up and downloads, it's super cheap, and it's
Speaker 12: never gone down on me, even during power failures.
Speaker 13: Now, now let me ask you something, d D. The
Speaker 13: five G they offer, is it a little hot spot?
Speaker 13: What is it?
Speaker 1: Oh?
Speaker 5: No, it's so.
Speaker 12: It's a box with an antenna and the networking hardware
Speaker 12: all in it. It's about the size of what a
Speaker 12: phone book used to look like.
Speaker 13: And then you kind of find they don't have to
Speaker 13: bring a wire in though it's all cell based.
Speaker 5: It's all wireless. It's stuck on my wall.
Speaker 12: So what you do is you use their app to
Speaker 12: figure out where to stick this huge thing on the
Speaker 12: wall or put it on a piece of furniture somewhere,
Speaker 12: and it, you know, it tells you how good of
Speaker 12: a connection you have to one of their antennas. And
Speaker 12: I did it and I haven't moved it since then.
Speaker 12: It has never gone down on me. And man, it's
Speaker 12: twenty five bucks a month. Now I know for a
Speaker 12: fact that T Mobile has a competing service. Is I
Speaker 12: did shop at T Mobile about a year ago and
Speaker 12: they told me they'll do the same thing for about
Speaker 12: thirty bucks. So either of those companies. My personal experience
Speaker 12: with Verizon and I can't tell you how happy I
Speaker 12: am with that service.
Speaker 28: So David, you can look into.
Speaker 13: You can look into Tea Mobile and ask them what
Speaker 13: home based broadband they offer and what Dimitria is talking about.
Speaker 28: It's kind of like a.
Speaker 5: Hotspot, that's what it is.
Speaker 13: It's picking up the cell service and turning it into
Speaker 13: broadband for your home through that router.
Speaker 12: Yeah, and it's and it's actually an entire Wi Fi
Speaker 12: system is in there so I can connect. I have
Speaker 12: two or three computers that are connected to it. I
Speaker 12: have two phones that are connected to it. So it's
Speaker 12: a full on.
Speaker 15: Home network and it's safe, so to speak.
Speaker 5: It's going to be as safe as you are. Right.
Speaker 12: So, I don't know how easy is to hack into
Speaker 12: Verizon's phone internet service, but I have a feeling they're
Speaker 12: pretty sophisticated to protecting themselves.
Speaker 13: Okay, because they just sew what he means by as
Speaker 13: safe as you are if you.
Speaker 28: What's that.
Speaker 26: They just mentioned?
Speaker 15: Hotspot was not recommended, but this morning the hotspot it's
Speaker 15: the same thing as that.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's not a hot spot. I know what Tom
Speaker 5: is referring to works like a hot Yeah.
Speaker 13: Yeah, I mean that's the only name. That's the only
Speaker 13: name I have for it. I mean, it's not. What
Speaker 13: I'm saying is it's not a wire coming into the home.
Speaker 12: No, it's all wireless, and it's just like a wireless WiFi.
Speaker 12: It is a wireless WiFi network. In fact, my neighbor's
Speaker 12: new refrigerator tried to connect to it because it is
Speaker 12: because it recognized it as the strongest Wi Fi network,
Speaker 12: and I didn't let the refrigerator into my network. But
Speaker 12: but it's it's a full on thing. Man, it's now now.
Speaker 12: I got to tell you. It was only available as
Speaker 12: an option because I have their premium telephone service. So
Speaker 12: if you buy it as a standalone service, it's like
Speaker 12: seventy or eighty bucks a month. But if you switch
Speaker 12: your cell phone service to Verizon, they'll offer it to
Speaker 12: for twenty.
Speaker 5: Five Okay, great, Oh never never a price increase, I expect.
Speaker 12: Did the you know, the twenty five dollars to be
Speaker 12: for like three months or something, and I was waiting
Speaker 12: for them to start sneaking in ten fifteen bucks a month.
Speaker 12: Since then, they haven't changed it once.
Speaker 15: Thank you, terrific.
Speaker 28: Hey, David, I want to I want to ask you
Speaker 28: a question.
Speaker 5: David.
Speaker 13: Have you ever called into the show when Mark took
Speaker 13: your call?
Speaker 14: Oh?
Speaker 15: In fact, I called in a couple of times. In fact, yeah,
Speaker 15: I just called in the other day and I was
Speaker 15: waiting and he just goes on and on and on
Speaker 15: about his own stuff, and I'm like, jeez, you know,
Speaker 15: I finally he takes a break, and I'll wait forever
Speaker 15: for you. I understand breaks, but he just it's just, Oh,
Speaker 15: I'm telling you. I used to bring me radio on,
Speaker 15: I mean the radio out to my mom when she
Speaker 15: was still alive, and I'm like, this is the guy
Speaker 15: in charge of helping people, and we were just laugh
Speaker 15: It was like a Saturday night. I mean, it's hilarious.
Speaker 15: But anyway, Yeah, I called in before and then I'll
Speaker 15: say something like you'll get in an argument or something,
Speaker 15: and then he hangs up on me and then he
Speaker 15: tells the audience that disconnected.
Speaker 26: He lies and I'm telling you.
Speaker 5: Just no, he doesn't lie about that.
Speaker 13: Oh he doesn't lie about back.
Speaker 15: He said that, and then he laughed, and no he does.
Speaker 15: And uh, I'm just telling you, I mean.
Speaker 23: Take a hat, take a stop hat.
Speaker 15: Hidden you know, discount Suzanne. She would have to like him,
Speaker 15: but see how many people like him. I'm telling you
Speaker 15: he would be on the the sleevesburg for everybody that
Speaker 15: knows him.
Speaker 12: Yeah, I disagree, and I disagree.
Speaker 15: I'm telling you, if he takes over the shop, I think,
Speaker 15: look Tom Martine, empire down the drain. I mean, what
Speaker 15: you built up this long? I mean, listen, if my
Speaker 15: if my wife was the employee of the New York Yankees,
Speaker 15: it doesn't mean I get to be the starting pitcher.
Speaker 15: He should be deputy in mark, just like you've got
Speaker 15: a doctor.
Speaker 13: I mean, everybody, Okay, hold on, hold on, no, no, no, okay,
Speaker 13: he's not here to defend himself. I there must have
Speaker 13: been a particular call or something that pissed you off.
Speaker 15: I don't I don't know what it is. I just
Speaker 15: can't stand the guy. I can't stand anything about him.
Speaker 13: Okay, well, okay, every listen, there are.
Speaker 15: One sentence without cursing, and he's not interested in helping.
Speaker 15: He's interested in fighting.
Speaker 5: That's what he.
Speaker 15: Does all day long.
Speaker 28: And okay, and that's a hard point, David.
Speaker 5: He fights health work like.
Speaker 15: A normal person. From you, you waste your time arguing
Speaker 15: with someone who always brings it into like a thousand
Speaker 15: and two thousand percent when you're just trying to focus
Speaker 15: in on one.
Speaker 13: Will ok well, listen, I let you I let you
Speaker 13: have your say. I let you have your say. Hold on,
Speaker 13: hold on.
Speaker 15: I'm not the only one.
Speaker 13: Well, okay, but there are a lot of people thank
Speaker 13: you for calling, by the way, three.
Speaker 28: Or three seven on three talk seven three two five.
Speaker 28: A lot of people don't like me.
Speaker 13: A lot of people don't like you know whatever I mean,
Speaker 13: there's different strokes.
Speaker 5: I was just curious as.
Speaker 13: To why you said that that you didn't want to
Speaker 13: call in with him. Dimitri present the cell phone. Yeah,
Speaker 13: you know, Miriam said her cell phone doesn't work.
Speaker 5: Did you call her? Yeah? And you know she's right.
Speaker 5: It was a pretty bad connection.
Speaker 12: Now, it's obviously impossible to figure out what's actually going on.
Speaker 5: I have a theory.
Speaker 12: I think she just it sounds our call quality was
Speaker 12: pretty awful and it sounded exactly the way that calls
Speaker 12: sound when you have somebody in a very bad reception area.
Speaker 12: So I think Dragon was looking in the right direction
Speaker 12: when he said, Hey, at your house, you have bad reception.
Speaker 12: But the phone wants to connect to your home Wi
Speaker 12: Fi network. And I know for a fact that that's
Speaker 12: what phones do, and I have a feeling that that's
Speaker 12: what that's the problem now.
Speaker 5: She I did ask.
Speaker 12: Her if she has better connectivity or better call quality
Speaker 12: when she goes to the grocery store or the library,
Speaker 12: or the gas station or whatever, and she didn't address
Speaker 12: that question. She said, it sounds to me like the
Speaker 12: only other place she ever goes is Park Meadows Mall.
Speaker 12: So so I obviously it's impossible for us to figure
Speaker 12: out what's going on with her phone.
Speaker 5: I'm with you.
Speaker 13: So if I never hooked to her WiFi, if she
Speaker 13: never hooked her phone to the Wi Fi, it has
Speaker 13: nowhere to go.
Speaker 12: If it has, I think that the phone never got
Speaker 12: a chance to connect to her home WiFi, or she
Speaker 12: may have entered their own password or whatever, and she
Speaker 12: needs to dig into the guts of her phone and
Speaker 12: connect it to the Wi Fi and then tell us, hey,
Speaker 12: I'm totally connected and call calouty still sucks and then
Speaker 12: we can pursue it. But Tom didn't last fall, you
Speaker 12: had you had a resource. He had some guy who
Speaker 12: went out to help an elderly lady set up her iPhone.
Speaker 12: Does that guy side does he still offer that?
Speaker 13: Say we call him eye Ted. He's still around. He's
Speaker 13: probably listening.
Speaker 12: Well, it would be great if you can offer her
Speaker 12: a house, you know, at a reasonable price.
Speaker 13: I'm thinking, well, I don't think he has a charge.

Speaker 31: Okay, I know it could be from sixty four in
Speaker 31: Sheridan in Herbada to Westminster on eighty eight and Westminster
Speaker 31: on Sheridan. They're putting these great big sewer lines in.

Speaker 13: Three h three seven it's seven one three talks seven
Speaker 13: one three eight two five five.
Speaker 5: I appreciate your your your.
Speaker 13: Thoughts and appreciate you congratulating me. Claudia, you have a
Speaker 13: comment on our issues apartment with no water?
Speaker 5: What is your comment?
Speaker 30: First of all, I'm glad you're well. Second of all,
Speaker 30: Marcus wonderful. That guy is an idiot. So anyway we
Speaker 30: the way we used to do it is we would
Speaker 30: call the fire department because you're not going to get
Speaker 30: a holdu of the management office. They probably won't answer.
Speaker 30: I worked for the county for a long time and
Speaker 30: they need to know about it. If there were a fire,
Speaker 30: there's no way to help out building at all.
Speaker 13: Well, they can get I don't know, the.
Speaker 5: Go ahead.
Speaker 30: They can get on to the management to give them
Speaker 30: an answer and make sure there's some going on with
Speaker 30: a quicker emergency than anybody else can do it.
Speaker 13: I never thought of that the fire department might have contacts.
Speaker 13: Deputy Doc, are you trying numbers, Claudia, Hold on, because Doc,
Speaker 13: have you tried any of the numbers?
Speaker 6: Doc?
Speaker 12: Stepped out because he's probably working the phones, working on
Speaker 12: this matter.
Speaker 13: Okay, Yeah, he's trying a few numbers to see if
Speaker 13: we can get through to somebody. And it does sound
Speaker 13: strange that they just turned off the water. It's terrace
Speaker 13: gardens in Westminster. Maybe Phil has a point. They're working
Speaker 13: on the water lines, uh with the city and maybe
Speaker 13: or the county did it. So we'll check it out.
Speaker 13: And Claudia, that's a good tip if you call the
Speaker 13: fire department and say what happens in case of a fire?
Speaker 13: Do you have emergency contacts for this apartment complex? And
Speaker 13: perhaps they do, Thank you, Claudia, three zero three, seven
Speaker 13: to one to three talk seven to one three, eight
Speaker 13: to two five five. So anyway, there is a there
Speaker 13: is a thing going on with teenagers right now that's
Speaker 13: pretty pretty amazing. It's it's terrible, and it's where they
Speaker 13: text teenage boys pretending to be a teenage girl. Now
Speaker 13: it's a twist on that old love scam, but instead
Speaker 13: of targeting middle aged women and middle aged men, now
Speaker 13: they're going after horny teenage boys. And I say horny
Speaker 13: teenage boys because this is how the scam works. They
Speaker 13: literally say that you know they're interested in them. They
Speaker 13: send a sexy picture of a teenage girl and then
Speaker 13: they ask the boy to send a picture back, and
Speaker 13: the boy sends a picture back. And by the way,
Speaker 13: this is happening and it's real. There have been many
Speaker 13: kids targeted on this. So when the kids sends the
Speaker 13: picture back, then they blackmail the kids saying, you know,
Speaker 13: we are going to publish this picture. It's called sextortion,
Speaker 13: and we're going to publish the picture to all your
Speaker 13: friends and neighbors and family and your contact list unless
Speaker 13: you pay us. Now, they're taking payments as little as
Speaker 13: twenty five or thirty bucks, all the way up to
Speaker 13: one hundred and fifty to two hundred. At first they
Speaker 13: ask for thousands, and the kids panic and say they
Speaker 13: can't pay it. Then they say, okay, what about one
Speaker 13: hundred dollars? And these kids manage to scrape together money
Speaker 13: to keep their pictures private.
Speaker 5: But it has been going on.
Speaker 13: It started in California, and a lot of kids are
Speaker 13: tapping into their college money or they're spending money or
Speaker 13: their savings accounts to pay this off.
Speaker 5: And so the FBI is on it.
Speaker 13: But it's called sextortion. You really should talk to your
Speaker 13: kids about this. You really should, because it's a real deal.
Speaker 13: If they're being targeted by someone of the other sex.
Speaker 13: It's usually teenage boys being targeted now by a track
Speaker 13: by so called attractive young women who want to have
Speaker 13: a relationship with them. And of course a lot of
Speaker 13: times we know that the teenage boys are not thinking
Speaker 13: with the correct brain three zero three seven one three
Speaker 13: talk seven one three eight two five five, So that
Speaker 13: is called sextortion. Sextortion is not new, but the new
Speaker 13: target's now teenage boys.
Speaker 5: That is a new development.

Speaker 5: What's going on?

Speaker 16: I was able to get finally in touch with somebody
Speaker 16: that they have an answering service, and she said she
Speaker 16: was going to contact the maintenance department and the management company.
Speaker 16: She wouldn't give me the numbers, but she said somebody
Speaker 16: should get back to him in fifteen minutes. So I
Speaker 16: told him to call me immediately and if we don't
Speaker 16: get satisfaction, we will do what you suggested and call
Speaker 16: the fire department.
Speaker 5: Yeah, so they did have an answering service.
Speaker 16: They did, finally, Yes.
Speaker 5: And were they aware of what you were talking about?
Speaker 16: No, of course not. It was it sounded like some uh,
Speaker 16: I won't be mean. It sounded like someone who was
Speaker 16: not really competent to be answering phones. But she did
Speaker 16: take down the course and we'll see what happens.
Speaker 5: That's the way it is. I mean.
Speaker 13: But it's this is you know, no water is way
Speaker 13: more serious than even no heat of course, or no
Speaker 13: AC or whatever.
Speaker 28: I mean, it's really bad.
Speaker 16: And I told her to make sure she talks to
Speaker 16: management company about giving you permission to take his five
Speaker 16: month old baby to a hotel for the night if
Speaker 16: the water's not turned on.
Speaker 13: Yep, absolutely, that's something that needs to be done. Okay,
Speaker 13: I want to talk about a couple other things here
Speaker 13: that's important. On the on the automobile, Kevin and Jeff,
Speaker 13: we had a couple questions. I want to get through
Speaker 13: it real quick. About additives. What if someone is changing
Speaker 13: their oil religiously five or six thousand miles, do additives
Speaker 13: do any additional help? Or is the changing of the
Speaker 13: oil enough.
Speaker 8: What depends on why the additive is you're using. I mean,
Speaker 8: if oil additives, you know, I know Al when he
Speaker 8: was here, he was pretty religious.
Speaker 6: About it on every oil change.
Speaker 8: If you know, if you do it, you know, every
Speaker 8: couple of three, then I think you probably receiving a
Speaker 8: benefit from there. You know, a lot of fuel additives.
Speaker 8: I recommend them with every tank. I mean, especially if
Speaker 8: you're running diesel, running something like a Lion or Sanadine.
Speaker 8: You know, this is crucial for him anymore, all actuality.
Speaker 8: Since they dropped down to low sulfur fuels, the standardne
Speaker 8: or Alliant will actually act as a lubricant in there,
Speaker 8: making up for that sulfur loss.
Speaker 7: Yeah, the gas motors I have a very require so
Speaker 7: much as far as maintenance. Because you can repair fuel
Speaker 7: injectors and sleds easy. The sleds inside of motor you
Speaker 7: can't fix. So that's why I recommend the oil oil additives.
Speaker 7: It just prevents a lot.
Speaker 28: I have another base. I have another basic question.
Speaker 13: This is really basic, and that is why don't the
Speaker 13: oil companies put it in their oil?
Speaker 8: Well, they've already got a lot of additives inside the
Speaker 8: petroleum products. Anyway, we're just boosting up what the whatever
Speaker 8: their quality product is, just trying to make it better.
Speaker 13: Okay, all right, that's uh, of course, Jeff fic Kimmera
