Speaker 4: That's how I find you guys when I'm not here.
Speaker 1: It's like five A five two of six eighty sixty YouTube.
So here's the weird part is like I have not
concentrated on the YouTube thing at all. I really haven't.
And something weird happened today. I went to the y
and I did two classes there today. I did a
spin class and then I did you ready?
Speaker 4: Did you teach it or did you know teach you
didn't quite shoot it?
Speaker 1: No? No, I've never taught a spin class. Okay, never
did you just teach boxing? That was the only thing
I can teach you. I can, I can do I
I would say I would be a pretty good beginner
boxing training, right, Okay, Yeah, I can get you to
work up a lather and I can teach you some
moves and some stuff like that.
Speaker 4: Like flyweight championship.
Speaker 1: No, I can't get you there, you'd have to go.
Footwork has always been a problem for me, honestly, Like,
as you get more advanced, you want to be you
know where you stand. Yeah, it's uh, it's different, but
uh no. So I did this s MIN class and
then afterwards I did a meditation class.
Speaker 4: So it's like, go from one extreme to the other.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so I'm I you go in. It was really
I loved it. The meditation, yeah, because they just take
this guided meditation. I've never done it. I thought I
would try it in through the nose, out through the
not like that. Jesus Christ, cat, cat, don't make fun
of it because it's in the way of prayer. I
don't make it. I do make fun. It is in
a way, yes, because not coming internally to meditation. Yes,
but that wasn't the point. Okay, So I go downstairs
and Jamison is playing two and two basketball and he's
looking a little tired of shots, a little off, and
I can tell he's getting frustrated, fatigued. Billy Well, he
had been playing since eleven o'clock it's now, or or
excuse me, since ten o'clock, and it's now about eleven
forty five, so he's been playing a lot of basketball,
and I could just see. And then he starts making
a bunch and then he's off again and game wraps up.
I'm changing my shoes and stuff, and he comes out
and he's getting his stuff. He's like, oh, my SHOT's off,
blah blah. And then all of a sudden, as I
get up, the guy who was on his team comes
out and goes, hey, I just wanted to say hi.
I didn't want to be creepy or anything, but I
recognized him from the podcast and I said, oh, well,
thank you. He's like and he goes, uh, yeah, he
goes he's pretty good, but we lost. I said yeah,
and he goes I said he plays for Fairport and
he goes, oh, how old are you? And Jameson says fourteen.
The guy's like, wow, fourteen, you're a big guy for fourteen,
and he is he'll be fifteen in about a month, so.
Speaker 4: He's bigger than I am. I'm forty four.
Speaker 1: Yeah. So the guy says, hey, and he mentions the
radio show I used to be on and how much
he loved it and how much he loved the chemistry
and all that stuff. Oh okay, and I I and
he asked me how it's the podcast going. And I'll
get people who say, come on, man, you have no listeners.
I see the YouTube numbers, and I'm like, I don't
ever concentrate on YouTube, right, I concentrate on the downloads.
Speaker 2: I don't even put our ads on YouTube.
Speaker 1: So I'm starting to think I've been doing it wrong
because people go to YouTube for I've been doing it wrong.
Speaker 2: I feel like, man, I don't think of it doing
it wrong.
Speaker 3: I think you just got to like elevate the YouTube
part of it, okay, because there's some people who like
have just.
Speaker 4: Completely like their lives are now just YouTube. Yeah right, yeah,
and so, and you've been a radio guy. First.
Speaker 3: Your podcast numbers are phenomenal, and I'm not making that up.
We know this for a fact. But people look at
YouTube because they go to YouTube and you can see
the numbers in real time, so people assume that, well,
nobody's watching, but no, that's not your focus.
Speaker 1: No, my focus has been the downloads of audio the
next day. And I think scrolling across the screen, I
have something in that it says, uh, you know, available
wherever you get your podcast, But it's usually the next day,
and I get people who when I haven't done a podcast,
going hey man, did you do one today? I'll get
messages because they download the audio.
Speaker 2: And you're right.
Speaker 1: I was a radio guy, so that's where I concentrated first.
But I'm starting to think like I'm doing this all wrong.
Speaker 3: Okay, and let's get it going. I'm gonna dance, no.
Speaker 1: No, no, no no. I just think like I've got to
figure out ways to do it more interactively.
Speaker 3: For YouTube and take another pair of hands, you know,
I think I think that's what I know.
Speaker 1: Is that what I need?
Speaker 4: Maybe, Christ, Well, let me help you out.
Speaker 1: Man, I don't know what I'm doing.
Speaker 4: I don't let me help you out. We'll get answer.
It's gotta be a Ted talk out there.
Speaker 2: So well, here's how to.
Speaker 1: Build a YouTube following I'm telling you right now with
Ted all of this, Like, Okay, I'm going to ask
you to put on your Danny Life coach hat. Okay, No,
I'm dead serious. I don't want you to get all
weird on me.
Speaker 4: My tweet hat.
Speaker 1: I feel like a lot of people are probably in
a similar situation. Maybe it's the time of year. I
don't know. I am feeling so overwhelmed right now, like overwhelmed,
to the point where.
Speaker 3: Life asked me if you are feeling overwhelmed today. I'm
not joking, Billy overwhelmed? Does he need help with everything?
What she asked me that I go, No, be sure
he's fine. She has a sixth sense about these things.
Now you're saying, I'm like, okay, Like, oh my gosh,
she knew.
Speaker 1: You're gonna You're gonna make me go way off topic.
I think, no, no, no, no, You're gonna like.
Speaker 4: Let me life coach you. I apologize, all right.
Speaker 1: So I'm just going I am. I'm feeling way overwhelmed.
I'm feeling overwhelmed about some personal relationships. I'm feeling overwhelmed
with my kid. I'm feeling not overwhelmed in a bad way,
but like he wanted to go to his girlfriend's house today.
He was over there yesterday. I let him stay till
like ten o'clock at night. They are from France. They
do eat later. They are going back to France for
the February winter break.
Speaker 4: I thought they eat more like in the middle of
the day, don't.
Speaker 1: I don't know. No, no, no, no, I'm not snapping
at you. I don't know. I'm starting to snap, but
I don't know.
Speaker 2: That's how I've been all day.
Speaker 1: That's how I've been off for I didn't want the coffee.
I got coffee, Okay, no, because I like the Costa
Rican coffee again.
Speaker 3: So it's a new relationship and he's you're adjusting, he's
a justing.
Speaker 1: I'm trying to just get him. Here's my thing with Jamison.
I'm going to say a lot of stuff here, and
there's gonna be people who may not appreciate what I'm saying.
I but that that's not my problem. Jamison did not
have a traditional school setting as we know it. Get up,
get on the bus, or get up and get dropped
off to school every day of the week. For the
past three years. He was homeschooled. For a minute, he
went to and he went to a Renaissance school where
most of it was online and you went in two
days a week and you were only there for a
couple hours.
Speaker 3: Uh.
Speaker 1: He did well school, He actually did well. But now
when he wanted to move here, I don't have that
luxury right to homeschool or renaissance school. So he's going
every day and he's been doing it and he's doing well.
Speaker 2: But that's a big switch, right even at fourteen.
Speaker 1: It's a big switch. So I've been hyper conscious of
all the things, and I haven't been super tough on him.
I just I haven't. I mean, I we had one
one blow up, dust up in the beginning, and that
was my fault, and I made a lot of changes
after that. But I I'm like, so today he was
gonna go over at four o'clock, I'm pulling the rug.
I go it's at four O'clock's too late on a Sunday.
It's just is because then I'm like, I'll pick you
up at six. Well, I don't want to be there.
So you're trying to balance that and you got the
meal prep and you've got this, and you've got all
these things, and I have bigger focus that I want
to get to like, I still don't have our website
live right, and I have a website that they pay for,
but I don't have a life. You know, these are
the things that are driving me crazy. And I go,
is it just me? Or is everybody feeling overwhelmed? And
what do you do? What would you say to somebody
in that scenario? I think I have an answer, but
I would almost get pissed at myself forgiving the answer.
So I'd like to hear what you would say.
Speaker 3: Well, first of all, take a step back, and I
would do like what they call the cross method. Okay,
and that's not a faith based mechanism, that's just pros
and cons. Okay, take a list of all the pros
in your life. Yeah, okay, they're feeling really good about,
excited about, and all the con not cons necessarily, but
things that.
Speaker 4: You're like that you're a little scared of.
Speaker 3: And then from the pros, then take the cons and
be like, okay, how can I eliminate these? How can
I delegate these? Then the pros do the same thing.
This is awesome that Jamison's living here, but what are
some of the not cons? But what are some of
the consequences of that? Well, he now has a girlfriend,
he's in a new school setting, he's got this, he's
got basketball as friends. We have one car and it's
just me and Jamison. So how do I like, you know,
delegate you know raising, not delegate raising him, but like,
how do we get him on a schedule that's conducive
so that he understands that he needs to check in
with you? There's more of a system. Then you start
putting like little systems in place. Right A right, So
take the cons What can I get rid of in
my life that I do not need right now? Or
can I put it off?
Speaker 1: Right?
Speaker 4: Is this necessary?
Speaker 1: Like?
Speaker 3: Do I need or can I do this in June?
Can I do this in May? Can I do this
in April? Put those off? Okay? So, and then from
there come up with a list of outcomes.
Speaker 4: This is not a to do list outcomes. I want
Jamison to get through this.
Speaker 3: Year and pass and have a great experience with basketball
and make sure that like this summer, he still wants
to live with me and we have a great relationship. Right,
That's an outcome that's going to require a lot of action.
What are the actions I need to take for that?
And branch off from there. Same thing with the podcast. Okay,
what are the pros? I got this cool guy named Dan,
he's on he's awesome. I got this great guy named Kevin.
I got this chick named Laura, she seems okay, Mark
Hillman's cool. You know, you got these cool people and
then you get them on the and then and then Okay,
what schedule can I get them on? And what can
I delegate to these guys to make this podcast grow?
Because we could all go further if we go together, Right,
you can go by yourself, like what we're on Facebook
and Twitter and all these guys are competing with each other.
And then they realize, you know, let's sit down and
have a meeting to figure out how we can divide
and conquer the world.
Speaker 4: We could all go further if we go together. So
what do they do?
Speaker 3: They all started working together with the iPhone and the
android phone, got their apps together. You could actually work
all the apps together. You could send messages together. Yeah,
they're competing, but not really. They're kind of like, Okay,
I'm going after this kind of audience. You're going after
this kind of audience. You're going after like Instagram's going
after this audience. So in other words, yeah, they're competing,
but they're all helping each other get rich. Sure, yeah,
so they all like the rising tide floats all boats right,
So just and I know that's that sounds overwhelming and complicated.
When you do the cross list, you get rid of
all the cons stuff. What do I do not need
right now? What can I put off right now? What
do I need to do right now? And what needs
to happen by twenty twenty six, And then you'll work
from there with the outcomes, work backwards and then figure.
Speaker 4: Out who can help. Who's coming with me, who's coming
with me on this journey?
Speaker 3: Yeah, like I need who's my other billy, who's my
second How do I clone myself?
Speaker 4: Who's coming with and who is it coming with me?
Who's dead weight that I need to get rid of?
You know, I'll be honest with you.
Speaker 3: I had I asked about a friend that I had
years back, and I just kind of like cut him
out of my life because I realized that they weren't
you know, they weren't really benefiting me, but long term,
because of that relationship I had with him, Like oddly enough,
I am now married to someone why Because he introduced
me to a person who's also playing guitar who wanted
to start a band, and we started this band, and
then all of a sudden, I restarted that band and eventually.
Speaker 4: Met my wife.
Speaker 3: So in a way, as much as that guy was
a pain in the neck, I owe him for helping
me open that door.
Speaker 1: That's an interesting thing pros and cons, because I think.
Speaker 4: We do they're not necessarily cons just like all right, I.
Speaker 1: Like that you're saying, not necessarily because I I let
me interrupt for just one second, and I apologize, But
I con sometimes we do that as human beings.
Speaker 3: Pros and cons of pros and consequences. Yes, that's a
better way to look at That's actually really good pros.
Speaker 4: And consequences, because consequences aren't. I mean, they're not always bad.
Speaker 1: Like another I have made fun of you for being
a life coach. I poked, I poked. Oh I remember
I poked. I remember I poked. But a couple of
different shows. But people got back to me. Do you
know who's making fun of you right now? Yeah, we
haven't talked to ten years. Well, the thing is like,
I only got mad at you because I thought you
wanted to get back into radio, and that was a misunderstanding.
Speaker 4: But that was who was a snipe shit never little weasel.
Speaker 1: Yeah. And the thing is, I don't have a bad
thing to say about you.
Speaker 4: I appreciate that.
Speaker 1: I never did. I never did.
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's okay.
Speaker 1: No, I never had a bad thing to say about you.
I just uh, yeah. I guess the negative would be
he could.
Speaker 4: You defend me to some people? I did hear that too.
Speaker 1: Oh I don't even know.
Speaker 4: I'll tell you later.
Speaker 1: Okay, Well, it doesn't matter that that wasn't the point
of this. I have to say, like, that's a really
good method, and I like that, and I like looking
at things. And my thing too is also I get
overwhelmed with time. And then I'm feeling a little weird
today because anybody who's in a similar situation to the
one I'm in maybe able to relate to this. I
don't know, but I would think that I'm certainly not
the only person who's gone through this sort of stuff.
You're not treading new territory, necessarily, nothing new under the sun.
But I was feeling a little bit bad because I
got a text last night from Jamison's grandmother on his
mom's side, and his mom and I are not divorced.
We are legally separated. Okay, and strange.
Speaker 4: It sounds like a harsh term, but that's kind of
what it is.
Speaker 1: Okay, Like arsenarm sounds like I'm nuts, strangle, Yeah, yes
it does. So she was reaching out to say basically
that she hasn't heard from him in a while and
she wanted to support him, and she knew he knows
he's been more active in basketball lately and was there anything.
So I decided, because he was still over at his
friend's house, that I would, uh, I'd give her a call,
just see what's going on. So I called her. We
had a very nice conversation. I always liked them. And
she said to me, you know, thank you, thank you
for all what you're doing whatever, And I just I
felt bad because she said, you know, and she said
something and I'm going to forget the way she phrased it.
It was it was pretty good. But She's like, the
complexities of the relationship now, and I'm going, don't let
that get in the way. Don't let anything get in
the way. There are reasons, there are things that happened,
but you're still his grandmother and a thing. So I
said to him today, I said, I told him last night.
I said, listen, I talked to your grandmother. She'd love
to talk to you. She wants to support your basketball
all that stuff. And he was like, all right, great,
And I said, you can try to call her now
or I'd like to have you call her tomorrow. So
then I said to him, hey man, and he's a kid, right,
you're running around. We're all running around. We don't know
why we're doing this. I said, listen, I'm gonna jump
in the shower. You. I think you really should call
your grandmother. So I get out of the shower. I go,
you're already off the phone. He goes, yeah. We talked
for like three minutes. I go, why, he sa. I
told her I was laying down and she said, all right,
I'll let you rest. And I'm like, buddy, buddy, and
I think it's just this weird place that everybody's in
and I don't want that. I want them to have
great relationships with everybody, with everybody. There's no wrong or
bad in my mind at all.
Speaker 3: But maybe i'm and that's not something that's ever going
to go with Like my grandmother is ninety five. She
lives in a nursing home, and she's hard to talk to.
I mean, she's cool, she's with it while you're talking
to her, but I've had to tell her the name
of my wife seventeen times in the last two years.
Speaker 4: And now, did you get married?
Speaker 3: Yeah, you sent me a gift, remember, I mean, so
when you when you do that, you kind of like, Now,
Jamison's grandmother's like still sharp, oh yeah, yeah, yeah. But
he's at that age of fourteen where yeah, I just
had a big day with the girl.
Speaker 1: I just played basketball.
Speaker 4: I want to be bothered by you, got it right?
Speaker 3: Which you never that you have to overcome that fleshy
desire and cultivate that relationship because one day Graham's gonna
be gone.
Speaker 1: You're like, yeah, and I wish we could talk to.
Speaker 2: Him, yes, And that's that's another thing.
Speaker 1: But I was feeling a little like over I'm like, god,
dig you want to make sure and sometimes when you try,
and this is the wrong way to do it, but
you're trying to please everybody and you're and no one can.
And I'm not trying to please her, but I do
want him to have a better relationship.
Speaker 2: He needs to take up the party, right, yeah, a
little bit.
Speaker 1: But at the same time you're like, oh my god, damn,
so I like that a team method, pros and cons.
Speaker 3: And then like you're gonna like, I mean the cons,
like the stuff that you could meet, like the cons
of stuff you could immediately get rid of, get rid
of them.
Speaker 4: Then like pros and consequences.
Speaker 3: Right, because some of the consequences are good consequences, but
they're gonna have like work. It seems like like you
know it's a bad thing. It's not, it's something you
gotta work at, right. The cons that are bad just
get rid of if you could get rid of them
or try to make them better. But pros and consequences,
Like I'm excited I got this podcast, okay, but what
are some of the consequences of that podcast?
Speaker 1: Okay?
Speaker 3: Now what can I delegate? What can I eliminate? And
then you go from what's gonna take me a freaking
week to do? But no, I really won't just do
one item at a time, like one day. So like
let's say tomorrow you do the podcast. Tuesday, you you
know you you did the teeth method on your laundry Wednesday,
Jamis said Thursday, your dad and mom parents are always
a fun one.
Speaker 1: Oh, you do the pros and cons of your parents. Oh,
my mom's great's gone.
Speaker 3: So I'm just saying, like, you know, think of all
the The first question you need to ask yourself is like,
what am I.
Speaker 4: Excited about in my life right now?
Speaker 3: And then listen and then go from there. And then
the other question is what do I dread about my
life right now? And then list though and they go.
Speaker 4: From there because because if this, because if you're excited about.
Speaker 3: Stuff, you'll build momentum you'll build and then you're like, yes,
I could do this.
Speaker 1: And this and this.
Speaker 3: You'll split there for an hour and you'll feel like
you sat there for like five minutes because you're excited
about that. The stuff you dread, you may also be
excited about because now I could get.
Speaker 2: Rid of it.
Speaker 1: I wonder if we should uh spark up Danny life Coaching,
And I'm not being funny, I wonder if we should.
I wouldn't it.
Speaker 3: I wouldn't love to help people. I gotta be I
gotta be more of a task master.
Speaker 1: Though if I do it, No, I don't mean like
on people what if we did a Danny Life Coaching podcast,
we could do that, like seriously, yeah, where Danny answers questions.
Or maybe we just have it as part of this
one we do a segment.
Speaker 4: Yeah, we could do it, right, That's how I write
the start.
Speaker 3: It could be like a TV spinoffs, a podcast from
the creators.
Speaker 1: I kind of like that. Maybe every Sunday we a
little Dandy Life coach. Yeah is that?
Speaker 4: Or yeah, bring me to your bring me your problem.
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, I'm going to start, ladies, Joe.
Speaker 3: I've undergone a lot of I don't want to say therapy,
but I've actually looked into a lot of this stuff.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I get that, and I but a lot of
great peace right there.
Speaker 3: But like like Kevin says, Danny, you have a lot
of time in your hands to do those things.
Speaker 4: Well let's do it.
Speaker 1: Then.
Speaker 3: Yeah, let me be a blessing to you. Because I
don't have any kids. I just had to me and
my wife and we're good.
Speaker 1: I sometimes get overwhelmed. I think a lot of parents
do that. I feel like I just need to work.
I have said out loud to my kid, Oh I
do is work twenty four to seven, And that's overwhelming,
But that's not his fault. He doesn't need to hear
that at all.
Speaker 4: But he's the only one in earshot. You got to
give it to somebody, So tell somebody you.
Speaker 1: Gotta chunk it down, Yes, chunk it down.
Speaker 3: And also what what can I what can I talk
to with Jamison? What can't I talk to with Jamison?
What can I talk to with some outside help in
my life? Who is that person?
Speaker 1: Who are? Like?
Speaker 3: What friends do I need to surround myself with? What
friends do I need to get away from or spend
less time with? These are just my party friends? It
is what it is. These are my confidants. Like Greg,
Greg is somebody you go to like and really talk
about it.
Speaker 1: I will tell you, Like Greg and Damiens, people will
probably think Damien's more of a party friend. But Damien
has been well we only.
Speaker 4: See the tip of the ice with Damien. We don't
see we don't see the under the under.
Speaker 1: He has been a brother to me. Yeah, like deep
deep deep many years and I and and then and
then I lack because I haven't been over there. I
think pretty much for.
Speaker 3: These sometimes like we give more and sometimes we get more.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know what I'm saying, yeah, anyway, Uh, I
thought that was good. All right, here's I'm gonna give
you a choice, choose your own adventure. Uh. For the
next segment, we can either shoot off what Beth said earlier, okay,
or we can ask you because she has.
Speaker 4: Not a concern too.
Speaker 2: No, no, no, no, is Billy overwhelmed?
Speaker 6: No?
Speaker 1: That that's okay?
Speaker 4: And I never heard until today, I've never heard that
word come out of your mouth.
Speaker 1: Right, Yeah, So it's weird how she just like, well,
there's something I gotta I have a different a different thing.
We can do that, or I can have you put
on another hat, your former a ride sharing hat. Okay,
which one would you like to do? If we can

Speaker 2: At so H.
Speaker 4: The early days, I think was Bridge. We had a
bass player named Ken Welling.
Speaker 3: We never played the Sun, but he would play this
because this is the bass light thereon Aaron Aaron, but
he would do it. He'd take his bass out and
pretend like he was in a porno movie.
Speaker 4: I'd start thrusting his hips with the bass because it
sounds like here it up an adult filled with this song.
Speaker 3: Not that I would know, I've been told, but he
would do that, and I could always picture Kim on.
Speaker 4: Their own, on their own.
Speaker 1: Twilight zone. So Beth asked you today if I was overwhelmed,
and that the reason I said this is kind of
amazing in a way is uh. I think that there
are certain frequencies that people are are tapped into. And
I know that Beth is more like me in some things.
Speaker 3: Yeah, like your beliefs, yes, ideas, yes, yes, yes, yes yes,
because you guys have talked about yes, how hot, Like
when I'm in the room, how could Danny believe blah
blah blah have done that? Yeah, you did that Christmas
party afterwards.
Speaker 4: I don't get it. I was a bunch of gentiles
following this Jewish dude.
Speaker 2: So but here's here's.
Speaker 1: What I'm saying.
Speaker 7: Uh.
Speaker 1: I got turned onto a podcast called the Telepathy Tapes. Okay, okay,
that's clever. And the Telepathy Tapes are about nonverbal autistic.
Speaker 4: Children, okay, like Doug Flutie sung almost.
Speaker 1: That can't speak and parents have been told they're not
in there and there's nothing that can really happen, and
you can't get much right. So my sister told me
about this, and so I listened and I listened to
one episode, and in that episode, it's very it's done
like a documentary. I'm sure there's a film somewhere of this.
I don't even know when this was released. I have
no idea. But what they did was they there's a
Harvard professor who has studied children that are nonverbal, but
they can they have telepathic tendencies.
Speaker 3: Okay, that's the thing about autism, right, Like, well, the
basics are hard, but the difficult stuff is a lot easier.
Speaker 1: Okay, So she says that, so in the first episode,
I'd love to get the woman on who did this
to just talk to or somebody. This stuff fascinates me
and that that's the stuff I'd like to do because
I'm gonna start a supporters club with the podcasts. You right,
if you'd like to this billified will be free. But
I'd like to do other more investigative pieces, like I'd
love to do a home on on will gambling control
the NFL or sports in general? Will they start to
influence the rules and things and just have a sort
of an investigative podcast. Can we get a couple of
people on and if you are a supporter, you would
get access to that. Right as a bonus, you would
get access to that that would wouldn't be free.
Speaker 4: Plus you'll also get my life coaches. Yeah, sign up now. Yeah,
it's like I will come to your house.
Speaker 1: It's like three bucks a month or something. But anyway,
so that's all coming. Yeah.
Speaker 2: But so I'm listening to this and they go.
Speaker 1: They find a family in Mexico who has a daughter
who is non verbal autistic girl who communicates like through
an iPad or something. Okay, And the woman who is
from Harvard and this person doing the documentary, they bring
them up to Los Angeles. She has an interpreter as well,
and they do things like they put mom on the
other side of a barrier and they show her a
number and the kid types out the exact number that
the mom's like met, and she's right every single time
that they do this. And this woman says, yes, I've
done a lot of these studies, the Harvard professor, I've
done a lot of these studies, and I would say
it's more or less ninety five percent accurate that the kid.
Speaker 2: The reason it can't be.
Speaker 1: Justified as a study is that it's the mom and
the daughter. Like the father and the daughter don't have
that connection, but the mom and the daughter do. Well
that somebody you're dependent on, or a teacher or somebody,
do you see what I'm saying.
Speaker 4: Maybe because dad goes to work, so mom's got to watch.
Speaker 1: The whatever it is, the mom's thoughts can be read
by this girl.
Speaker 4: Okay, right, it's kind of freaking. It could just be coincidental.
Speaker 1: Well, it could be coincidental or in a study it
would be more or less that mom is too connected.
They'd want to bring in a neutral subject who's never
met this girl. Can you read her thoughts. So the
podcast goes on and they find more and more and
more people, and I was up to this one part
in the episode. I think it's episode four or five,
and they go down to Georgia where there is a
or maybe they went to Georgia and New Jersey, whatever
it is. There was a kid who the mother they
were from India, was always told not in there, not
going to happen, and she was about to give up
on the kid, or one of the parents were, and
the kid came and said to the mom, I love you,
and she's like it kind of resparked this thing, well,
this one kid. They do all the tests. They put
the mom in another room. The numbers she's looking at,
he gets it right. The colors, the thing, the this
they do all these different random number generators, math problems
that they give the mom with numbers that she can't
do without a calculator. The kid gets it immediately by
looking at just the problem. They're just showing her the problem,
not the answer, but just the problem, and the kid
is getting it. And the kid says, yes, that's one
of the gifts and that I get with autism. He
can't speak, but he's speaking through an iPad and sometimes
if there's words that aren't on the iPad, he'll spell
it out. And the long and shurely is He says
that nonverbal speaking children meet every day on the hill
and it's like this proverbial hill, and says, we have
conversations and we talk. You don't need to be in
the same zip code. You don't need anywhere. He's like, look,
he's going to people do it with their iPhones and
their computers. We just do it with our minds. And
he goes and then they go, are you lying? And
he goes, I couldn't do this if I were a liar.
The gifts don't work. If I lie. The gifts work
because I don't lie. Wow, And he said, everything's wavelength,
it's all it's all there, it's all frequency. It's like
people who used to get They even do a thing
with lucio ball, like they used to use certain types
of fillings or temporary fillings in your.
Speaker 2: Teeth and people you got it.
Speaker 1: There was even an episode I remember as a kid
of Gilligan's Island where they did something and they're getting
in Okay, okay, so there you go. So we see
all this stuff. Right, So I'm wondering, and I really
I'm going to tell you a weird story. I'm wondering,
like with Beth, if somewhere she thought about me and
could feel that.
Speaker 4: I think that was part of it.
Speaker 3: Because my wife, right, okay, like she already know who's
gonna play in the super Bowl next year by the way,
she picked the you the Eagle this year or everybody
to understand that, that's how that's how into it she is.
That's why she went to bed in the fourth quarter of.
Speaker 4: The biggest dancey Championship game ever. But no, I'm just joking.
Speaker 3: But I think she goes, hey, hu is Bill content
attackted you about the podcast this week? I go no,
She goes, well, do you want to reach out to
I go, I don't want to bug him. He's I'm
sure he's got a plan. She goes, he may be
overwhelmed you might want to read.
Speaker 4: I'm like, okay, because I.
Speaker 3: Don't want to bug you. I mean, I know what
you want to do. You'll reach out to me?
Speaker 1: Like, yeah, yeah. Yeah, it's better when you reach out
because then I don't feel like I'm bugging you.
Speaker 4: Okay, all right, well now that we have so let's
communicate that we understand.
Speaker 1: Okay, cool.
Speaker 3: Now I know that, But like she goes, he may
be overwhelmed, and I'm like, holy cow, she yeah, come
to think of it, I mean, you got a lot
going on.
Speaker 1: Maybe that's it. I don't know. I just think that
there's sometimes if you open your mind and you just
let things go, and if thoughts I I this is
gonna sound crazy stuff to people. I know it. I
know it. I listened to some the other day and
it said close your eyes, and it's like I hands
you a big I slice in half a lemon, and
I hand it to you and you can see it,
and you can see like the juice is starting to
leak out of the skin of it, and the flesh
you all plump and ripe and all this stuff. And
I hand it to you and you take a big
bite of it. Like if you close your eyes, you
can be right there doing all that. And the point
is that if you picture it, you can have it,
you can do it, you can see it, and that
are we tapped into one greater consciousness that anybody can
do this telepathy stuff? Or is there what's going on?
How does this work? And in this podcast there's a
kid in Phoenix, I don't know where he is, some
other state and he goes this mother said, I got
a call once from this woman who said to me,
my son, who's nine, is best friends with your son.
They hang out and he gave me your phone number.
Like telepathic. Oh wow, the kid is in another state.
It's it's bizarre. People won't believe it. They shit upon it.
They if you read the comments to the podcast, they
shit all over it. All I'm telling you is no
I understand. But look, Marconi harnessed waves to make radio
right the Transatlantic or maybe Tesla, and then Marconi stole it.
Who knows he.
Speaker 4: Don't blame me Italian?
Speaker 2: Aren't they both Italian? Is it Tesla?
Speaker 4: I think he been so the.
Speaker 1: I'm just saying like there's something there and there's a
thought thing. And if you're on the frequency, if I'm
on one hundred and two point five, I can't hear
what's on ninety seven point eight, you know what I mean? Yeah,
that kind of thing. So where are you on your
frequency and how do you change that? And I'm starting
to really think this stuff is real. So I read.
I listened to that one episod the telepathy tapes. And
I have been very open about the fact that I
have been substitute teaching. I was I thought people would
make tremendous fun of me, and I was afraid to
say anything. But I just it's me and I just
go a fuck it. But I have really enjoyed that
more than I thought I would, and it's been good
because it's been able to help me do things with Jamison.
Right that I it's just a lot of on unseen expenses. Right.
The basketball team needs money, and there's this, this is
one hundred dollars and this is three hundred.
Speaker 3: By the way, have you been hit up for like
eighteen fundraisers this past week?
Speaker 1: Like I have? No? Just too Okay, well that's the
point though, just too.
Speaker 3: Hey, we know Christmas is over and now it's time
to spend money again.
Speaker 1: Yes, so, uh, what was I going to say here?
Speaker 4: Frequencies?
Speaker 1: No, I know, frequencies. But oh so I have been
in uh a classroom where they have two non verbal kids. Okay,
I've been in there once in a while, and I like,
some of the kids are verbal and I've talked to them,
and some of them not. The nonverbal kids I never
really interact with. I listen to this podcast and I
walk in one day and I'm looking at this one
kid and I go, I wonder if you can read
my thoughts? Because in this podcast too, one kid it's
sometimes like if he gets anxious, he's not as telepathic
when his anxiety's up, and when he's in crowded spaces,
apparently he can read everybody's thoughts and sometimes runs into
a room looking for the person for a certain who
had a certain thought in their head.
Speaker 2: Wow, Okay, I know it sounds insane.
Speaker 1: So I'm just telling you this. I am looking at
this kid and I go, dude, can you hear me?
Can you? And he's not looking up at me. And
sometimes in this podcast they say the kid doesn't make
an eye contact or anything but answering every question. So
I'm looking at him, and he's got his own person
who is with him all day long. This guy is
just with this person, this non speaking kid. So the kid,
they go over, they put him in a chair. He's
sitting in a chair, and I keep looking at him,
and his guy goes to lunch, so other people are
gonna look at him, look after this kid, and whatever happened,
I don't even know. The kid started like gesturing towards me,
so I went over and he likes to play with straws,
so he's handing me straws, pulling it out, putting it back,
putting it out. And then I don't know what I did,
but I started tapping my leg. He starts tapping his leg.
Then he takes my hand and I'm sitting on this
giant like a giant bean bag, but an overstuffed, big,
big plush thing, and he puts my hand and starts
raising up and down there right, So we start doing that.
So we're tapping, tap and tapping. I go, you get
this man, you can feel that rhythm, right, And then
he's tapping on the side of his chair. Then he
puts my hand back on my leg and he goes
to his leg and back and forth. This goes on
for a while. Danny. This total went on for probably
forty five minutes. So then I start doing I go,
did you ever hear a horse? So he starts trying
to do that. The next thing I know, the other
nonverbal kid comes over and flops on this overthing behind me,
behind me, and he too has a person who's with
him all day. And that person is there and says,
you know, the kid's name's like, hey, you're gonna go
over there and hang out. The next thing I know,
that kid puts his head on my lap, takes my
hand and wants me to start tapping on his ribs. Okay,
I have no idea, but I go, did I tap
into a frequency that these guys were on? Is this
stuff real? I couldn't read their Maybe they could read mind.
I have no idea. That's not the but you know,
like some of these parents will say, I feel very
like exposed to find out that my kid could always
read my thoughts like this. One woman is a single mom.
She married some big jock, abusive, abusive, right, and the
kid said to her, and she was the one who's
saying I was going to give up in any city.
Love me that he's saying to her, and he's communicating.
He goes, I knew what was happening, and I couldn't
say anything because I didn't know how to express it.
I could never tell and he said, there's more and
other people who were abused by that guy than yeah, yeah,
probably his dad.
Speaker 2: Right, it's crazy.
Speaker 1: But my point is when you said that about Beth,
I go, I just wonder sometimes, because how many times
have we, all of us thought of somebody and the
phone rings and it's that person, or thought of somebody,
gone to our email and there's an email from that
person or something something you think of any coincident, Okay,
So I just wonder if there is this thing, and
how do we figure it out? And how cool would
that be? How much easier is life? Do we just
make it too fucking hard? Well, we're down here overwhelmed, right,
getting ourselves all stressed, all fucked up, and you and
you're not able. You're not able to do anything when
you're overwhelmed, you're not able to do anything. You're like
a one legged duck on you're just in a certain.
Speaker 2: Everything.
Speaker 1: And I go, boy, this and the Tough Telepathy. It's
a fantastic, so well done podcast, but really in a
very academic fashion, right, And they explain and she says,
I how the camera guy is really a non believer,
and she then interviews him after seeing a couple of
things he goes, I wouldn't believe it if i'd and
see it with my own eyes.
Speaker 2: He's a skeptic more or right.
Speaker 3: When I was growing up in church in Sunday School,
we had a teacher named misus Land. She would teach
us she goes, look, she goes with allably gifts you have,
there's gifts you don't that other people have. And there
are a lot of people you know whom may be
less fortunate. Like if you look at somebody who's blind,
their hearing is amazing. You ever notice that, right, So
God like compensates for what they don't have with other aspects,
and you have to wonder if that's his way of Like,
now you never want to trade places with them?
Speaker 4: But the same I'm serious, let's be honest. I mean,
do you want to trade places?
Speaker 1: I don't know because this is my only normal.
Speaker 3: Right right, But I would say, maybe they'd want to
trade places with you.
Speaker 1: For your normals. Okay, But here here's what I would
Here's what I think that I've come to think and believe.
I believe creation never gets it wrong no matter what. Okay,
creation never gets it wrong. So if there's God, no
make mistakes. Do you see what I'm saying. Yeah, okay,
So if we believe call God, if God made everything
and that it never gets it wrong, so then there's
a reason why. What is the reason why? And sometimes
I think it's because you know, certain people, depending on
where they are on the spectrum, can show you unconditional love,
completely unconditional love, which I think is a very hard
thing for human beings, because I would feel better if
you just that's.
Speaker 3: Conditional, yes, right, I'll forgive you if you just that's conditions, conditional, right.
Speaker 1: And I think that that's the stuff. So I don't know,
I can't explain it. I agree with you, I like
my right. But one of these kids said, I didn't
even realize I had a body until my mom started
making me touch my fingers and hands.
Speaker 4: On Helen keller story, I don't know.
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't that I don't know.
Speaker 3: I need to read about her, but because like her,
her story has got to be the most fascinating story.
Speaker 1: I'm just saying, like, yes, and I'm sure she too.
But they can read, right, they can read thoughts. First
of all, if somebody could read your thoughts, that's pretty scary.
Speaker 4: Especially when you have forget jerking off. Are you are
you looking at booth? Are you thinking about booby like.
Speaker 1: Or or like you're you're in the grocery store and
then somebody walks by and you go nice, rack in
your head, in your head every time, and not every
time you say no, no, having somebody remind like know
that you're thinking.
Speaker 4: That, like every time that I'm thinking about it every time.
Speaker 2: No trying to justify that.
Speaker 1: I'm just saying like, yeah, wouldn't that be weird? It
would be very strange. I don't know. I don't think
this stuff is made up. I think these people are
being very honest. And I have to listen to more
of it. But it's called the Telepathy Tapes for anybody
who wants to check out a really well done academia podcast. Actually,
I've had a listener or to reach out about it
as well. And now they think about it.
Speaker 4: Let's say Alzheimer's.
Speaker 3: Are Parkinson's patients remember music, either playing it or singing it?
Yeah Alzheimer Yeah, like like they remember the lyrics to songs.
Like music is one way they could tap into people,
because like it's a different neural pathway.
Speaker 4: It's it's fascinating if we could tap into it. Like
my my nephew.
Speaker 3: They thought they would bring him a strong he's got autism.
My sister eventually moves him to Tucson, Arizona, which has
been made fun of for being the dumbest city in America.
She goes out west with her whole upwards, her whole
family out there, and then got to the root of it.
It wasn't autism. It's something that looks like autism, but
it's not autism. They found out it was a form
of pans right around the time we were having these
issues here like in Laura, that whole situation, and but
they needed a different diagnosis to figure out so how
they can make my nephew a better you know, like.
Speaker 2: Well more adapted to life.
Speaker 1: Yes, you wanted your kid to be functioning, right, that's
the whole thinget knowing that they were.
Speaker 3: So when that happened, all of a sudden, all these
people are reaching out to my sister and she's trying
to help everybody, and then it became overwhelming and then
she had to stop because I got my own son
to worry about too. But they were onto stuff like this,
you know, So It's fascinating how you know you can't
just like one size fits all the situation. I think
there's many different forms of this. And however, you could
help your kid tap into it.
Speaker 1: Isn't that weird though? Yeah?
Speaker 4: But I think some people like I remember.
Speaker 2: I want to see if I could tap into it.
Speaker 4: Well, well, here's the thing.
Speaker 1: Yes to say, we can't, but what are you right there?
Speaker 2: I mean it's right there.
Speaker 3: Theoretically, but you gotta be careful though, because then you
cannot allow it to over like like those those cosplays,
that cosplay, the cold play type of people take advantage
of people.
Speaker 4: And I'll use your mind for fifty dollars an hour.
To me, that's like that.
Speaker 1: Oh no, no, no, no, that's I just want to
be able to do it yourself. I just want to
be able to Here's the thing I would love. My
favorite phrase is ease and flow. I like ease and
flow in my life and I would like to be
able to, like be able to just ease and flow.
Speaker 4: Get out of here, just ease and flow.
Speaker 1: And I think sometimes if you were able to almost
communicate telepathically, here's my thing. Is is it telepathic or
is it everything that the weirdos have been telling us
since time began. We're all one. We're all one. There's
one consciousness. God is in you. You are of God.
Of that, you are of that and that can you
tap into that pure positive light and it's all right here.
Everything you want is right there. It's all right there.
But what we do is we mix it up and
we come down here. And that's what you wanted to do.
You want to mix it up, and you know there's
the things you don't want. You know what you do want.
But we get so sometimes bogged down that we forget
that we have this ability because we are of that.
So why not.
Speaker 4: Life is a series of trade offs?
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, I mean think about all the chemicals
that are in our food which lead to a lot
of these issues. Sure, but at the same time, do
you really want to give up that ice cream? Well,
give up that steak? Do you really want to give
up the A one sauce? Do you really want to
give up the beef turkey? Do you really want to
give up the coca cola?
Speaker 1: Yes?
Speaker 3: Because if you can, great, but if you can't, you
want to enjoy your life now? Okay, but it might
be shorter there's life is nothing but a series of
trade offs, and that includes our DNA too.
Speaker 1: But I yeah, I would think, yeah, I guess there's
a series of trade offs. I sometimes wonder if it's
more like if you believe it, it's gonna happen type thing.
Oh this is bad for Mell.
Speaker 3: The Bible says the root of all problems is unbelief.
Think about that. Yes, the root of now I believe
that is belief in Christ. But the point is, the
root of all problems is unbelief.
Speaker 4: Think about that. Think about believing.
Speaker 1: You could get very very deep in this week. We could.
Speaker 4: But that's why you got me here.
Speaker 1: That's why I like to do the Bill Lightman podcast.
But here's the thing.
Speaker 3: I had a friend named Bill Moran who once told
me this, and it's with me ever since that day.
We're talking about a friend of ours, or of a
friend of yours, Elvio Fernandez.
Speaker 4: He always wanted to be a rock star. That was
his passion and he found a.
Speaker 1: Way to do it.
Speaker 3: He is now on tour now I think fifteen years
with Daughtry, Chris Daughtry, and you said he.
Speaker 4: Wanted to be If you want to do something.
Speaker 3: You will you at least make the effort, and if
you don't, you'll find an excuse.
Speaker 4: And then you parlayed it into a reason why the.
Speaker 3: Station was screwing us, which was also true because they
didn't want to help us.
Speaker 4: But the point is, though, is that, and.
Speaker 3: I say this, I go, if you want to do something,
you will make the effort at the very leg Like
I want to be a Major League baseball player, I
could have practiced by you know what, off it never
would have happened. I couldn't even make my varsity team. Okay,
in a Class D school in Section six. You don't
get any worse than that. Okay, I didn't qualify as
an athlete, okay. But the point is always.
Speaker 4: I wanted to. I tried.
Speaker 3: If you want to do something, you will make the effort.
You will research it, you will figure out a way
to do it. If you don't do it, at least
you tried.
Speaker 4: And if you really don't want to do it, yeah,
you'll find an excuse.
Speaker 1: Well, you'll find an excuse. But I think a lot
of times too as we make it too hard. And
that's why I always say things like, don't share those
ideas until they're underway. And the reason I say that
is because people put doubt in your head. It's too hard,
it's out of reach. A guy like you can't be
a baseball player, Dan, Look at you. You're not an athletic.
But if you didn't believe that, if you didn't think that,
and you actually sat in your mind and pictured yourself
doing whatever, I wonder if it would have happened. I
don't know. I can't. I can't say you're right. We
can talk about gifts and athletic ability and all that stuff,
and you plod and you don't run. And run anyway.
It's got a way deeper than you.
Speaker 4: Can hear me coming down the street like Jackson Moran.
Speaker 1: Jackson's got big heavy feet.
Speaker 3: When I live down the street from horses Jackson moan
like a marathon.
Speaker 1: Uh yeah, down Harvard Street. All right, we'll take a moment.
I want you to put on your ride sharing hat sharing.
Speaker 4: Yes, my Doug phelps, My interfhelps.
Speaker 1: Okay, put on your interfhelps. We will get to that.
Sorry to get a little deep on your bus. There's
a greater consciousness out there and you.

Speaker 7: Most woke up this long until somebody in a video
talking about something I posted in a video. If it
wasn't meeting, would you even get offended? Or is it
just because I'm black and heavy? Y'all on your meato,
I've been the same since I've been dropping slow on
visiting that. Call up anybody I know and they will
tell you that famous pretty new bit.
Speaker 2: I've been used to people judging me.
Speaker 7: That's why I moved the way I'm move And while
I'm so in love with me, you still feeling.
Speaker 2: Yeah in business?
Speaker 4: Is that a semi glue tie?
Speaker 1: I don't know. I've always wondered. I I I think
this song is empowering. I think it's it's it's great.
I'm not sure with things like the story I'm about
to bring up to you and present to you. You
may have heard about it already. I don't know. It's
been everywhere. But I said something to my son and
he said, I hope you're not going to shame people,
and he meant it, and I thought, no, I'm not.
That wasn't the angle I was going to go with.
But I sometimes wonder do we And I'm gonna ask it.
I'll ask the question. Maybe it's toorical more or less
one to just chew on, But do we harm people
by by telling them there we're accepting them the way
they are, not fat shaming. I'm not saying that we
should be making people feel like shit. That that's not right.
I got that, and I get you know, like I
love busting balls and I probably made tons. I know,
I did make tons of fat jokes. Lauria cal Fonso was,
you know, and she wasn't even fat, But so there
was all that stuff as a kid, and kids can
be very mean and cruel and all that stuff. But
sometimes when we're it's all this body acceptance and all
this shit. Are we are we perpetuating a bigger problem?
Are we not helping people lead better, healthier lives? And
I'm not even saying live longer. I'm just saying, think clearer,
feel better, less sugar. Let's get you off that stuff.
Let's find should we be should instead of body acceptance?
Should we be trying to you know, the in food
deserts for example, where you can't really get any nutritious food,
but you can get pork rines in a bottle of
whatever soda you want? Yes, right, do you know? I mean,
should we be trying to push in there with some
organic food and things like that. You can't control people
to that level, that's not that's right, But should we
allow more options? Is my point? So that way, if
one day I wake up and go, I don't want
to be in this body, and I have the control
to fix that, and I can find all the help
in the world on YouTube and different things. Now. I
don't know, but sometimes I wonder if we perpetuate a
problem by that. And I'm not saying you should shame people,
but we could also Like when your doctor says to
you you're a little beasts, you kind of get a
little like, oh right, there's nothing wrong with that. There
isn't okay, because honestly every one of us and I
have said it here, when you do hard things, you
start to feel better because you're accomplished something and you're like, damn,
it sucked and went up and down and I what's
gonna quit? And I didn't and I didn't. Here I
am and now you can push yourself further and push
yourself further, and that's the real self esteem. I believe
that everybody's searching for and trying to build, especially in kids.
Speaker 3: I think that we have let feelings dictate facts in
the last last ten years instead of living facts dictate feelings.
Speaker 4: I mean weight watchers.
Speaker 3: They don't even call it weight watchers anymore now, it's
WW Why because we don't want to admit we're fat,
even though.
Speaker 4: We go there to lose weight.
Speaker 3: I don't have a problem it's my body. And I
think that shame, a little bit of shame is like
a vaccination right now. They put a little bit of
the flu in the flu shot. You know how they
put a little bit of the disease in polio in
the polar shot. It's to help you not get polio.
Did not get the flu? And I think a little
bit like, man, this room is a mess. What are
you a freaking pigh? Your parents will tell you that,
why do you want to act like a pig? I
think we need to be better sales people to each other,
and a doctor should be like, well, how long do
you want to live?
Speaker 1: Do you want?
Speaker 4: Do you want to live past forty?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 3: I do, Well, then you got to lose some weight, right.
Oh when you put it that way, I know, yeah,
then maybe I should.
Speaker 1: But what I'm saying is like, we shouldn't be a
shithead to people.
Speaker 2: No, No, there's a way to do it.
Speaker 1: And we should mind our own business. And when we
see a fat person, and I have said for years
that I can be in a grocery store and see
a woman in yoga pants or what do they call now, leggings,
whatever they are, and you can see like the woman
that really works out, takes care of her body. You know,
her ass. You can bounce a quarter up whatever, that's
not the ass. I'm going to stare at. Stare at
the big ass where I can actually see the craters
in your fat right, and I the moon, the moon,
and I look at it and I picture all these
things happening with this ass, and I picture the sounds
that come up. That's what goes on.
Speaker 3: That's why I know what people my thoughts a Chris
Rock bit with the breaking break up, bread and her shoes.
Speaker 1: But I mean, I look at that and I'm I'm, I'm,
I can't stop staring at it.
Speaker 2: I go, that's amazing, you know.
Speaker 1: And then there are times where I'm like, and I
love that the person and I say this, I do
think this in my head. If someone can read my thoughts,
I think, I go, man, that's some confidences you can't
teach to be able to.
Speaker 2: Walk out in those clothes.
Speaker 1: Because there's so many people are ashamed of being overweight
or whatever. If you're happy with that, that that's fine,
and that's the big thing. But here's the story Dan
that I I don't know if you're familiar with this
or not. But a woman ordered a lift. It's she
ordered lyft to come and pick her up. Do you
know this story? I think I'm familiar with it and
this is what this is her When the driver told
her she can't fit in his car, she started filming.
Speaker 4: What what?
Speaker 1: What? Just?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 4: I got most cases. My car is small. I can
fit in this car.
Speaker 6: Don't believe me? If yes, I hid believe it.
Speaker 1: So I'm sorry? What whatever? Doot my leaving Well, I'm
gonna hurt you. You're not gonna be.
Speaker 4: Part so you suddenly I can't.
Speaker 1: I'm getting to live because I can't fit in your car.
Speaker 4: Yeah, you called her a beer fuk? What makes you
think I can't fit in a car?
Speaker 7: Yeah?
Speaker 3: I'm short.
Speaker 4: What makes you think I can't hit in this car? Goes?
The car is holding up? To believe my best friend?
Speaker 1: Now hang on a second, okay, good to pause. Uh,
listen to what the guy says, because she says, my
best friend has a car like this. Listen to what
the lift driver says after this.
Speaker 4: The is that's not what it is that I can pay.
That's the same time.
Speaker 1: Yeah I'm short, I say, so, are you really.
Speaker 6: Telling me I'm still visitting your car, so I gotta
order another list to be more and more specific with you.
I got very tired to tire.
Speaker 2: I have, I got very tired tires.
Speaker 1: Is that what he said?
Speaker 2: I have?
Speaker 1: Only I heard him say something about the tires when
I loaded into our machine.
Speaker 4: When I got out to Hill's got five ton limit.
Speaker 1: I have not listened to anybody talk about this. I'm
assuming everybody who has a microphone in front of them
have talked about it.
Speaker 2: I have listened enough.
Speaker 4: Sure this was in the complete sheet. What I'm going
to do with the tires? Yeah, you have no space?
Speaker 7: No face?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I got no space in the bat How do
you not I don't have no face because I've tried.
Speaker 6: So.
Speaker 1: This woman is now suing Lyft for not giving her
a ride. Apparently she's five hundred pounds. I would put
a picture up, but I didn't. I didn't get one
fast enough. Her name is Diesua bl Blanding Doesua Blanding.
She lives in Detroit. She is a rapper and her
stage name is Dank Demos Dank demos, d e m
oss demos. I guess okay, demos demos demos, dank demos
dank demos.
Speaker 3: Uh.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so she's suing that this happened on January eighteenth.
She put the incident on Instagram and it went everywhere.
The driver was in a Mercedes, he stated, he uh oh.
The driver operating Mercedes said he has stated experienced a
similar situation. He also expressed concern about the cars tires
being unable to support her weight. That was what I
would have done.
Speaker 3: I was immediately called lift operators and be like, hey,
let we have a situation here. Can you call another
lift for this because she's not gonna fit mine? Can
you excuse me once I had to make a phone
call for That's how I would try to hard it.
Speaker 4: Okay, So so that way you have documentation of this incident.
Speaker 1: Here's the here's the question. Okay that I I and
I'm serious about this.
Speaker 4: If you.
Speaker 1: If you weigh five hundred pounds, do you have an
obligation to say to like if you're ride share or
if you're uber eating and you're ordering a bunch of
stuff and you go, listen, man, this is going to
be a big order. I hope you're carking it. No,
I'm saying, but do you have an obligation to say, hey,
I'm I'm a big person. Like take away the weight.
Let's take away the weight. Let's say that the person
is Jackson, he's six eight, Jackson doesn't fit comfortably in
certain cars. Should Jackson say so? Should Jackson say, Hey,
I'm six foot eight and I'm also I'm not skinny.
Speaker 2: I'm a big guy.
Speaker 1: But I don't know, like because sometimes if we go
for the cheaper Uber, it's going to be a smaller
Uber you can get or I'm talking to Uber. I
don't know what lyft does, but just my experience with
Uber is you can get like Uber XL.
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's they'll send you options depending on how big
your party is. Most people like if if you have
like five people in your party, a car is not
gonna work. You need the van. It's gonna cost you more,
but you understand that going in. But when you're one
person on the prize of like.
Speaker 1: Two or three, yeah, I mean, let's see, it'll be
like like that'll be like three me. If she's five
hundred pounds and let's say four of me. What is
the average woman let's say other women, what is it?
What is an average It would be one hundred and
forty pounds. Okay, so average average.
Speaker 2: Above and below.
Speaker 1: Would you say, so that's one hour at two eighty
for two yeah, and then we had another we're at
three twenty. Yeah, that's three all right, never mind, get there.
Point is is that, but is this guy being a dick?
Does he does? No?
Speaker 4: I mean I've had to deal with people say.
Speaker 1: You know what, Yeah, get in there and let's see
what happens.
Speaker 3: Probably, yeah, I mean like he's he's not wrong. I
mean I've actually had to tell people.
Speaker 4: You have the right to tell people.
Speaker 1: No.
Speaker 3: The worst that can happen is that they give you
a bad grade on Lyft and then Lift will then
turn your app off. You call Lyft and they'll straighten
it out and they'll turn your app back on. Okay,
Because I had somebody once accused me of drinking ten
o'clock on a Friday morning.
Speaker 4: What it was? It was the woman who I.
Speaker 3: Picked up, who's all dialed up at ten o'clock on
a Friday morning.
Speaker 2: Well, what was she doing?
Speaker 4: She was out Thursday night partying.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and she reeked of booze and then accused me
of it, which wasn't true.
Speaker 4: She was so drunk, yes, that I was drugg right.
Speaker 3: There's another time where I picked up a gentleman of
billy' This is no joke. I was driving a Nissan
Center at the time, and those aren't big vehicles, and
I had to pick up a guy in an apartment
complex in Greece.
Speaker 4: Where do you want to go? He just wanted to
go around the corner and get beer at a corner store.
He could have walked there. The problem was he was
five hundred pounds.
Speaker 3: He got in the passenger's seat, he couldn't get the
seat belt on. The guy stunk. He couldn't fit the
seatbelt on. So I'm driving him over to this corner
store where a normal person could have just walked. It
was about a four hundred yard drive altogether, okay, but
he couldn't walk.
Speaker 4: He needed the golf cart is what he needed. He
could probably fit one of those. So he's struggling. I'm
driving over there with a ding ding ding ding ding
ding ding and he can't.
Speaker 3: Fit the seatbelt around him, and I'm just trying to
be a nice person. All he needs to go is
to the corner store and get beer. So I just
kindly plug my nose, roll down my windows. By the way,
it's February and drive him over and.
Speaker 4: You know what he told me.
Speaker 3: He gets out, he gets his beer. It takes HI
about ten minutes just to get like a twelve pack. Yeah,
it comes back.
Speaker 4: You know what, man, you're really nice. Most people. Most
people drive me.
Speaker 3: Man, they don't give me the time of day, or
they don't want to talk to meat.
Speaker 1: You like shit because we forget that you have so that.
So now we'll go back to your argument of do
we cater to feelings too much?
Speaker 4: How how I felt bad to the guy.
Speaker 3: But if somebody didn't feel bad and wanted to stick
up for their car and their rights as a ride
share and driver, they have absolutely the right to do that.
Speaker 4: I just didn't do that at.
Speaker 1: No, no, no. What I'm saying to you is, but
when you go up against that enough in life, you
get callouses, right, and you start to realize. But everybody
hates me. Yeah, you know, everybody hates me. They all
treat me like shit. I'm just I'm I'm a faceless
fat guy to these people they have they don't see
me as a human being. They don't see me much
like I think the non verbal speaking kids who who
have been told by doctors that told parents they're not
in there's nothing there, and then they're finding out. But
my point is, like you treated that person as a person.
That's it. I'm not saying that this guy I don't know.
I think that there are times where it is your car.
And if you're afraid, if you know you got bad
shocks or something, you.
Speaker 3: Shouldn't be driving a lift. That's another thing. I mean,
he's driving a Mercedes. Okay, there's a couple of things
about with this. Well, most if you're driving a Mercedes,
you don't need to ride lyft.
Speaker 4: No, you don't need to drive lyft. So, first of
I can't judge it.
Speaker 1: But time out, time out, time out. I see lots
of guys with Tesla's.
Speaker 4: And things driving Yeah, yeah, I've seen that too.
Speaker 1: And Mercedes. We don't know what year this Mercedes is.
That's a that's a fair point. I don't know how
many miles are on this Mercedes. I'm hearing well, and I.
Speaker 4: Think the car's got to be at least within years old.
Speaker 1: If I'm playing this, okay, okay, but if I'm playing,
if I'm listening to what that sounds like a Diesel.
Answer to me, okay, and Mercedes did do some diesel
or something. We believe me, okay, believe me.
Speaker 4: You can't well because.
Speaker 1: Now I'm reading an article that is a Mercedes. I
didn't look like a Mercedes in it. And when I
saw the videos.
Speaker 4: That a Mercedes Essue. Was it an SUV?
Speaker 1: I don't think no, I don't think so. Okay, it
was a Sedan. Okay, So that's why I'm wondering, like,
is it.
Speaker 3: I think he tried to handle it the best he could.
I think he was shocked. Like one time I picked
somebody up at a hotel in Webster, not realizing his
name was Bobo and his really long name was short
for Bob, Bobo something. He was from India. He was
here for on business with Xerox. You want to go
see Niagara Falls. This is the most Sunday morning of
a Bills game against the Dolphins in Orchard Park, And
I'm like, oh my gosh, how am I going to
drive this dude night? Drive him back? You don't know
until the moment you accept the ride. Ah, you don't know. Yeah,
lifted Uber will play tricks on you too. They'll make
you the bad guy. To deny the rights that I can't.
You gotta have to take something, you have to find
something other, right, I can't do it, and then you
get the downgrade. In other words, when you signed to
be a Lyft driver, man, you better drive everybody. That's
why I like you have a situation like Joel McHale
got driven from the Rochester Airport all the way in
New York City because that person did not know until
Joel McHale accepted the ride got in.
Speaker 4: The car that they were going to New York City.
Speaker 3: Right, And they could have turned around and said no,
but then they would have gotten downgraded.
Speaker 1: So it's kind of a trap.
Speaker 3: So what I would have done in that situation, and
now I've like we've had like thirty minutes to think
about it, I would have called Lyft be like, hey, listen,
could you send another car for this.
Speaker 4: Woman I don't have the room for.
Speaker 3: Okay, now you have documentary, Yeah, okay, that's the thing
with In that situation, I personally probably would have just
tried to suck it up and do the best.
Speaker 4: Maybe got to kick out of it.
Speaker 2: Yes, me too.
Speaker 4: Hey for dear life, may here we go.
Speaker 1: It's a good story, right, yeah, you know, watch that.
Speaker 4: We're gonna create a few in this like remember the
Flintstones where they.
Speaker 1: Put the rack on what I'm saying, like the car,
don't tell me the car doesn't lead a little bit right,
and this guy now I'm surprised, but you'll have to
call another one, all right. Whatever. My question is, when
you're that big, or if you're a super tall person,
do you call ahead and go listen? I'm one person.
Can you send somebody with a more room? Or can
we tell the driver to put the passenger seat all
the way up because I have really.
Speaker 4: I don't know if you have those options to do that,
but I think that would be wise.
Speaker 3: I think if you are if you're self aware, if
you are self aware and honest what you're.
Speaker 4: Saying give you, I think you should be able to
do that.
Speaker 3: This chick was clearly told from Bert, now you're fine, baby,
you ain't got no problems. She sounds like someone who
was entitled and was catered to her entire life.
Speaker 4: She seems nice, She could seem nice. Everybody's got moments.
You and I know some awful people who have had
some good moments.
Speaker 3: You always say, is in a good mood today, I remember, yeah, yeah,
I don't know.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know. If I don't know, I really thought,
I go take all the fat jokes away.
Speaker 2: Let's take it to size.
Speaker 1: Just a bigger person, not even a heavy person, just big,
like you know, outside the average Jackson. Do you have?
Should you then call the driver yourself, because you'll get
their phone number and say, hey, I just want to
let you know. I'm six eleven and my legs are
really long. There's a possibility for me to either sit
in the passenger seat and put that seat all the
way back, or is there Should I call another uber
that's responsible, or or hey, this is embarrassing. I'm five
hundred pounds. I just want to make sure that whatever
car you're in, because I know I just asked for
the car, but it's only me.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, I think you have a responsibility to do.
Speaker 1: You do a little bit. I do too.
Speaker 2: I think like that. I go, I get it. I
it's shitty.
Speaker 3: I wish file the actual Well then they're getting to
freedom issues, but.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you do.
Speaker 3: Look, I would just hope that people would have a
modicum of common sense and human decency to say, hey, look,
even though I'm paying for this ride, and the customer
is always right? Can I make it easier on the
driver doing service for me?
Speaker 1: Well?
Speaker 2: Don't you?
Speaker 4: Isn't that just human decency?
Speaker 1: I just think that it.
Speaker 2: Makes your life a little does.
Speaker 1: I mean, let's be honest, being a little selfish is okay,
because you know you want to do you want to
run into that situation.
Speaker 2: How uncomfortable is that.
Speaker 1: Situation for this woman? Right? And I'm probably for driver too,
because the driver's probably going to right shit. I am
listening to the engine, either there's something wrong with it
or I'm thinking that sounds like a diesel engine to me.
But I gotta look up Mercedes because I don't think
they've done diesel engines since like the eighties. But I
don't know.
Speaker 3: I don't know you drive lift or Uber. At least
the requirement was when I was driving.
Speaker 1: You have to have ten year right.
Speaker 3: The car's got to be relatively new, and by relatively
I mean like made in the last five to ten years.
And you have to have a clean driving record and
all this other stuff I mean, not like speeding tickets,
are parking tickets that's okay?
Speaker 1: Oh no, you're at okay. So many Mercedes best models
have a diesel engines, including the S class. But I'm
just oh, see, that was in nineteen seventy eight, that's
what I'm thinking. Okay, that was in nineteen seventy eight.
The C class, C two twenty two. Okay, here we go.
The GLC has a diesel option, and the twenty twenty
three model has a forty eight vault mild hybrid system.
Let's see twenty ten to twenty eleven. I think that
was a V six turbo engine that I think was diesel.
So teny yes, see I okay, twenty thirteen, so you're
still within that ten year window.
Speaker 4: And I don't know if I don't if they've changed
the rules when I was doing it to get in
a car with Timmy, it may be wrong. It sounds
like a truck, yeah it does, right, It looks like
a diesel truck.
Speaker 2: Yeah, like a diesel engine.
Speaker 1: But it's not. If you see the car, and you
can get a twenty sixteen E class Mercedes eighty six
thousand miles for fifteen grand, so you could probably drive that,
and yeah, all right, okay.
Speaker 4: But I think as as a passenger.
Speaker 1: I only remember I had a teacher that bought a
Mercedes at auction and the reason and one of the
things he liked.
Speaker 2: About it was in there was there was a murderer
in the back seat.
Speaker 4: Okay, and so I thought, you got a real deal
on it.
Speaker 1: No, there was a murder in the back seat. They
must have told this at the auction that he went to,
and it was one of those I think it had
the removable hardtop, but it was a diesel. Uncle got
a deal on an OUDI yeah, Mercedes, but there was
a murder in the back seat and they re upholstered
everything in.
Speaker 4: The car and dan they found the guy dead.
Speaker 1: I got a sweet deal anyway, from Larry Spatt. By
the way, a diesel, I would think you'd be able
to pull that with a five hundred pound person with
a diesel, no problem.
Speaker 3: I just think he may have had an experience before,
Like I know people who like, Okay, if you go
into the city, people have to bring their kids to daycare,
to school to other places, and they you need to
have a car seat, and four out of five of
them don't care. They just hold the kid, buckle the
kid up. They don't bring the car seat, and you
have to. It's up to you to tell them, no,
you need a car seat. So you could either accept
the ride, take your chances, hope you don't get pulled over,
or be the bad guy, which is actually the good guy,
and say no, ma'am or no, sir, you need a
car seat.
Speaker 1: What if you kept a car seat in your trunk.
Speaker 4: You could do that too.
Speaker 3: The thing is, though, is that if you're picking somebody
at the airport.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's the other thing too.
Speaker 3: Like the kid's seven, they still technically in New York
States they need a booster seat.
Speaker 4: Yeah, which is so stupid.
Speaker 1: I used to sit in the front seat as a kid, right,
he said, in the front seat. The kids can't. I mean,
I get it, especially with an airbag.
Speaker 2: The airbag goes off.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, kid gets crushed.
Speaker 1: Yeah so we okay, I get it.
Speaker 4: I understand, but some.
Speaker 1: Of this stuff is just crazy. I even think a
seat belt your choice.
Speaker 4: I think, yeah, you know, I mean, it's America, your choice,
the privilege to drive.
Speaker 1: I get it, But I I think if I don't
wear a seatbelt and I get into an accident, I
don't think the fact that I don't have a seatbelt
lot hurts the other person or not. You know what
I'm saying. You know, and it may prevent me from
getting injured, even so, even with airbags and things. But
I don't care if you don't want to wear it.
Speaker 4: My father never wore a seatbelt.
Speaker 3: Yeah I could, Yeah, I just we didn't grow up
with them, he said, Because we didn't grow up with
seatbelt right, because the fact we grew up and we
had kids, we would hold on to the kid in
the case no seatbelt.
Speaker 4: Mom's got the kid in the front seat. Just hold
out for dear life. Yeah, and it was no big deal.
Speaker 2: So I they even.
Speaker 4: Have dog food back to They just feed the dog
they left.
Speaker 1: You don't want to, you don't want to.
Speaker 4: Uh, we specialize in everything, and we make laws to
make you do it.
Speaker 1: Well, look, they they save lives. I would say, you're
better off wearing a seatbelt, right, and I will not
get into any vehicle and I put the seatbelt on.
Speaker 3: I just I'm glad they have car seat laws for kids,
because like there's some of these parents.
Speaker 4: Man, they're flying out of the window.
Speaker 1: But I think you get over eighteen and you don't
want to wear a seatbelt, that's your business. Your rule man.
Speaker 3: I also don't think you need a car seat for
a seven year old. I think that's ridiculous too.
Speaker 1: I mean, look, I've seen guys getting race cars enough
put the harness all the way on, like they just
strap it and you know, so it's a harness seat,
so it straps up.
Speaker 4: Tighten it, race Randy. No, how old for me, buddy,
I'm old school.
Speaker 1: All that stuff. All right, We'll take a moment big
trade in the NBA Danny, Yeah, wow, almost shocking and idea.
Speaker 4: Talk about stealing headlights for the NFL.
Speaker 1: I didn't think it was real.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I didn't.
Speaker 2: My kid's telling me about it.
Speaker 1: I go, that's not true.
Speaker 2: That can't be true.
Speaker 1: Wrong.
Speaker 2: We will get to that right after this, I would say.

Speaker 6: Not a TV studio, Josh, turn these lights.
Speaker 4: Out rock concert right, don't send yeah, Josh, you dick.
It didn't sound like Eddie Ease and Flew.
Speaker 6: Harasser saying on the bell made a concrete hold.
Speaker 1: Hand her. A lot of his songs, a lot of
pearl Jam songs, but I don't know if they were
he brought them to the band or what are about suffering?
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, that's pearl Jam in a nutshell, right, I
mean Eddie. Eddie had an interesting upbringing.
Speaker 3: Like this song it's not a homeless kid, yeah yeah,
or someone with mental illness, and then you've got you
know daughter, yeah by not just a child, right, and
then you've got Jeremy was about a kid shot himself
in front of his classmates. Alive was about how his
mother never told him his father was actually a neighbor
who died of Luke Gerrigg's disease.
Speaker 4: I mean yeah, like the.
Speaker 3: New record that just came out, which I think is
their best record of decades, and I mean that seriously, Jeff.
Speaker 4: For Grammy tonight, they maybe I forgot all about that.
Speaker 3: Jeff A meant the bass player like, I have Pearl
Jam Radio on Serious XM, but I'm a Pearl Jam fan.
Speaker 4: I have a love hate relationship with that band.
Speaker 3: But he goes, Eddie wrote a song about his two
daughters and it's kind of an uplifting song. It's called
so Special, and Jeff Amtt goes, yeah, we needed a positive.
Speaker 1: Song on the record.
Speaker 3: I'm like, oh my gosh, you guys still you haven't
made You're near retirement if you didn't want to retire already,
and now you're still sinking about how much life sucks.
Speaker 4: I'm like, sixty years old.
Speaker 1: What are you thinking about? Are you Are you saying
how life sucks or how certain issues just really cut
to your core? Yeah?
Speaker 3: Like I actually listened to the record and asked myself,
because any vetter's an atheist, yeah, and listen to lyricsco
did any vetter find God because some of the lyrics
are now like pointing another direction. And I think a
lot of people as they get older and get closer
to death, they start to realize, you know, hold on,
maybe I need to review my thoughts and beliefs and things.
Speaker 4: I don't know, but I mean.
Speaker 3: Pearl jam here's how it works. If there's a Democrat
in the office, usually the album's more uplifting and less suffering,
but still suffering. If there's a Republican in office, it's
all about how evil politicians are. That's the way it's
always been with Pearl Jammer. With that Eve, yeah, he's
he's the main lyricist. They all contribute the music. I
just wish they'd come out with more songs that like
like this. I mean, this dude went from being a
guy who like would climb the scaffolding right and like,
you know, put himself in harm's way to being a
guy who became a total recluse, didn't want to have fame,
didn't want to go on tour, didn't want to make videos.
To all of a sudden, okay, so that America said, okay,
Pearl jam Sea, and he's like who whoa whoa, Okay,
we'll start making videos again and I'll go out in
public again.
Speaker 4: Like Ed, he's a bit of a poser.
Speaker 1: I always loved Pearl Jam because they also had uh.
Speaker 4: Moral compass.
Speaker 1: No no, no, no, no, they had.
Speaker 4: Because it's the kind of fair they had.
Speaker 1: They all had other projects. They all had other bands.
Oh yeah they did. I mean there was a bunch
of them had other bands they were in. And I
loved Temple to the Dog.
Speaker 4: Temple the Dog was fantastic.
Speaker 1: I only know the one song really, but such a
great record, but it was the whole thing was uh yeah,
I don't know. I am not as I like them,
I but everything seemed to be a downer in someone.
Speaker 3: Yeah oh yeah, Well, I mean that's the big joke
about like nineties rock everything sucked.
Speaker 4: Yeah, like life is awful. Everything sucks.
Speaker 3: Like when Green Day, when Green Days the most uplifting band, Yeah,
because like they're all like, yeah, we're like just you know,
turn us sound for your five year old, We don't care.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but even Green.
Speaker 4: Day's lyrics were like, oh wow, like my life must
have sucked at Aukland.
Speaker 1: Well, I just think that sometimes you get you just
get uh like eighties.
Speaker 3: Music was all about love and parties and chicks. What
the big joke is like, like every video was a
bunch of dudes in tight pants and big hair and
a spark factory where they just made sparks. Yeah, right,
and there's always these hot chicks dancing around in cars.
Speaker 4: Then the nineties ever, it's like, oh.
Speaker 1: Man, life sucks. Well, I think there's like, uh, what
I think in art, what what happens? Maybe I'm wrong,
is we go through a certain phase and we all right,
we're tired of this, and so we go the pendulum
swings almost to the exact hours that come back, and
we go at and I I'm only familiar with more
with with rock or pop. I'm not familiar with other
forms if of music, country, if that does the same
thing or not. In countries it probably the most popular. Now.
I have no idea, but I just think it's art.
And you can even see it with comedy. You know,
comedy would sometimes be people just you know, coming up
and it was hey, my wife, Uh, you know, it's
just I don't know what I'm trying to think of
some Rodney Dangerfield joke, but you had that or guys
who were you know, quick one liners, quick joke, joke,
joke joke into storytellers or you know, truth tellers or philosophers,
and you know, the pendulum swings and that's acceptable now
and now it's not, and then different even subdivisions of
that happens over time, right, I don't know.
Speaker 2: It's it's kind.
Speaker 1: Of interesting because I never thought about, uh, probably the
lyrics to stuff. But I always think, like, you can
you know, I'll say when you say like atheists, I go,
I can't look at the world. And it was really
the eclipse. And I know that people were upset with
the eclipse, but that really brought it home to me,
is I can't look at this and go, there isn't
some some greater something here because you didn't get up
this morning and make sure that we're still spinning in
orbit and that the moon is exactly and you know,
the sun rose or didn't rise because of the cloud whatever.
But we didn't do that, and I didn't have to
come here and start over as a hunter gatherer. It's
we've evolved.
Speaker 4: We're standing on the shoulders of the previous generation.
Speaker 1: You got it. And then I didn't have to bring
anything in here. I'm not taking you know, soil from
the moon to grow what I There's none of that.
Everything I need is here and everything I have is
built upon it. And it is evolutionary in the fact
that that we do that. So I don't know, and
I go, there's got to be there's got to be And.
Speaker 2: Is it one greater conscious?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think so. I don't know. And I don't
think that you ever get it wronging. I don't know
that you ever get it done, because there is that
eternal part of it, eternal life, which even the Bible
talks about. Yes, and I believe that energy is eternal
and your eternal. And I don't know. I may go
even weirder and say you kind of choose as to
where you go. And I'm waiting to see if more
stuff comes out this year, Okay, if more things come
out like we'll have we had contact with alien life,
and are we about to find out for sure that
the government knew and has tried to protect them.
Speaker 3: Oh, there are people are going one step further saying
that there are aliens among us in the form of
certain leaders and politicians.
Speaker 1: Okay, well I don't I'm not going Yeah, I'm not
going that far. But I'm just saying, like I do.
I wonder if they've known, and you know, if there's
different I have no idea. I don't know, but let's
just be open and have fun. And if the better
feeling is love, that's it.
Speaker 3: The one thing that we have to keep in mind
as Americans is that we live at the top of
Maslow's hierarchy of needs than our worst day. We have
it so much better than everybody else.
Speaker 1: I know, but that you know, here's what I would
always say to people all the time, because you are correct.
Speaker 4: And like you and I didn't grow up like making
bricks in a mind.
Speaker 1: No, we didn't. And that's exactly right, that that's so true.
But maybe that humbles us for five minutes, right, yeah,
of course, but that's why I always go. But it's
all relative, right, Your shitty moment because you couldn't get
on the internet is a big moment.
Speaker 2: No, I know, I know, I know.
Speaker 1: Yes, right exactly, this is true, Yes, yes, exactly, and
so it is just as frustrating and to come along
and go, well, at least you're not into mind, I
want to go, fuck you.
Speaker 3: Here's a great example, like when you're talking about a
football game. At the end of a football the bill
season ended, you're talking in the context of a football game.
Speaker 4: Yes, you can't.
Speaker 3: Then all of a sudden, the apply life principles to it.
We try to, Yeah, but like it's it's ridiculous because
we know that what you're saying football is life.
Speaker 4: Now you're making it a false equivalency, as they call it.
Speaker 1: Well, sometimes you just can't get over the hump in life. Right,
they too, And but what are they gonna do. They're
gonna go back and strategize and try again. You should
do the same. You should go back and stretch.
Speaker 4: I will come up well tomorrow.
Speaker 1: But I think that that that's my thinking with with
positive thinking, right, should you think positively? Yes? Should you
believe that the outcome is going to be great? Yes? Uh,
it doesn't nothing really matters, doesn't really matter. I mean
I was even talking to somebody today. I go the
meaning that I'm applying to this is it means nothing.
But I'm applying this meeting. I'm the one putting it
on to this, making it whatever it was.
Speaker 3: It's a muscle you have to work on and you
have to really exercise that muscle.
Speaker 2: But when you're feeling shitty and somebody goes.
Speaker 1: It's gotta think positive, Dan, you almost want to You
don't want to punch him, but you want to just
flick them right in the fucking nose, because it's like, yes, exactly, No,
it's not how it works. No, But that's why I say,
try to go for the better feeling thought. And maybe
you go from despair to anger or despair to revenge.
It's a better feeling thought. And you realize I really
can't do that, and maybe I'm overreacting, and then you
start to maybe start to feel better about something, or
get off the subject entirely and focus on something else.
And I do think, like you know, God or whomever
you have a gift. You're here, right, it's you're here,
and as you say, you're you're here in a great
spot if you're in it over where we are in
the Western world and whatever. In every moment, you have
a choice, choose whatever feels the best, and do it
the best of your ability and see where it goes.
But don't sweat the outcome. Don't sweat the outcome. And
that stuff is the part that's weird for us because
we're told got to grind it out. We're conditioned so much.
Speaker 3: So that I think it's bad either our opinion leaders
on Twitter rise and grind. I'm so sick of reading
that well, rise and grind. I understand the sentiment.
Speaker 1: I do too, and I would often say I don't
like the term grind, and I don't think you have
to do it that way. But I will say maybe
I'm starting to change a little bit, because when you
do grind, you feel like you got something done, and then.
Speaker 2: You go, holy shit, I did it.
Speaker 1: I can do X, Y and Z, and then I
got ABC and you know what I'm saying, all these
things that I can do.
Speaker 3: I aim for one win, and one win will become
two wins and you'll build moment.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, three wins, four wins, five wins there it
is feel good. I don't know how many wins the
Lakers are going to get, but I was shocked, absolutely
shocked when my son told me, he goes, yeah, uh,
Donchik is going to the Lakers, and I'm like, no, Luca, Yeah,
Luca Gotchick.
Speaker 2: I go, no, he's not.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's what I said.
Speaker 1: No way I thought, because I thought he and Kyrie
had a I thought they were doing Okay, I haven't
paid enough.
Speaker 3: There are a couple of games over five hundred Dallas.
I'm not a big NBA guy the NBA. First of all,
let me set the backdrop for the NBA's ratings in
the last twelve years have dropped by fifty percent.
Speaker 1: Can I enjoy it?
Speaker 4: And there's a lot of reasons.
Speaker 3: I think everything woke. It may be but a politics,
but I think the biggest reason is because there's no
urgency to watch most like two thirds of the teams
make the playoffs every year. Regular season games don't mean squad.
The other ten are trying to lose.
Speaker 2: Do the ratings go up during the playoff?
Speaker 4: I love they do go if they do go up
during the playoffs.
Speaker 3: But this is the first time since twenty sixteen where
the NBA Finals got out drawn by the word World Series.
Like for a while, the NBA has passed baseball. Like
first baseball was America's past time than football World Series.
This year, right, we did, but now it's like now
the NBA is with the second team ever since short
in the NBA was like the second well in.
Speaker 1: The World Series. The Dodgers who lost the World Series Yanke,
this is two more key teams.
Speaker 4: Yeah, of course.
Speaker 1: That's gonna go up. But I do wonder if the
ratings for the NBA regular season versus playoffs go up
and and it's more deeper into the playoffs. But college basketball,
a lot of people tell me it's so much better
right to watch, and I've been I've been trying to
watch a little bit more with jameson Uh, I don't know.
I like watching the NBA. I'll put an NBA game on.
I I really enjoy watching basketball. I think I'm so
impressed by how athletic these guys are, how amazing. But
at the same time, you're right, there is no urgency.
It's not I don't know. I read that's stupid tournament
they're doing in December.
Speaker 4: The NBA Cup, which is a joke they got that
from from soccer. Thing is like I wrote.
Speaker 3: I think I wrote a piece for The Times in
November December ten reasons why the NBA is failing, and
Adam Silver the commissioners addressed it like He's going on
like podcasts and radio shows and television shows to try
to up drum up support for the NBA. One of
the things is they want to make the game forty
minutes now forty eight.
Speaker 1: Well, because that's the international place, the international play. It's
also the college corners. Yes, and then they don't play quarters,
play two halves.
Speaker 4: The women play quarters, the guys don't. The guys play
half and halfs. But the reason why college basketball is
it's not that it's bigger than the NBA, because it's not.
The ratings prove that. Here's the thing.
Speaker 3: Though everybody talks about it in March, every nobody's talking
about it. Not everybody talks about it. In March, everybody
talks about it, but nobody talks about the NBA Finals.
Speaker 1: It is so fun to watch that tournament because it's
it's you know, win and move on.
Speaker 4: Yeah, surviving advance.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: In the NBA, it's like, okay, you got a seven
game series and well you can make it up tomorrow.
There's no They have to create more urgency in the NBA.
But to bring it to this trade. The thing about Kyrie,
first of all, it's hard to play with Kyrie.
Speaker 4: He's a nut. But Kyrie and Luca have a similar game.
Speaker 3: A d Anthony Davis is actually a better fit for
somebody like Kyrie because he plays a low post game.
He's a center or more power forward to today's NBA
a big, so their game meshes together. Whereas Luca could
take the torch from Lebron, Lebron could retire at some point,
Luca could be the star because he really is.
Speaker 4: One of the five best players in the NBA.
Speaker 1: They're saying that. I mean, he was Rookie of the
Year when he came in and eight.
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's a third overall picked that.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Like if I told you the name of the guy
who's taken before, you'd be like.
Speaker 1: Who yuh exactly. So it is interesting, I does Lebron
end up on the Warriors or does he stay?
Speaker 4: He could or he could stay. I mean the Lakers
have to look out for the Lakers sands Lebron right
watching friction.
Speaker 2: Well, I think that's the stuff with.
Speaker 3: Bronni has really upset a lot of people. People are
just coming around to the fact that you think Lebron
was using nepotism. No kidding, of course he was. Bronni's
not an NBA player, He's barely a G League player.
Speaker 1: I wonder if they will, like uh, were let finish
the season and then retire.
Speaker 4: He could he very well could, or he could go
like I think Lebron to chase one more ring.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Like like could this help that you could with
don Yeah? Yeah, very well? Could from Dallas very well.
Speaker 3: I mean that Adam Schefter said this is like trading
in football terms, Joe Burrow for Lamar Jackson in mid season.
Speaker 4: I don't know if I'll go that far far.
Speaker 1: Well, here's the problem that I think that Dallas had
and I remember reading this a while ago. I think
they were it was him and who's the guy in
the Nuggets, Oh Joker, Yeah, Jocob Jo. I think both
these guys, if I remember reading it, are are not
in shape. It wouldn't surprise me. I think they were.
I'm I thought Dallas was concerned about Doncik's conditioning. And
I think when Luca went to the finals, they didn't
think you have the stamina to go as they've lost,
didn't they? Yes, they lost, yes to the Celtics. So
I think like it was came down to by the way.
Speaker 3: By the way, the fact that you had to pause
because I had to pause too to remember that the
Celtics won the NBA Finals tells you exactly where the NBA.
Speaker 2: Okay, did we learn that already?
Speaker 4: But I had to pause too.
Speaker 1: That's the point.
Speaker 4: I follow sports. That's not that's I know, but that's
where the NBA is at.
Speaker 1: I like basketball, you do, Yes, I do, and I've
enjoyed I you know, I never played organized basketball because
I had never been cut from a team, and I
thought I would get cut, so I couldn't handle it.
Speaker 3: The imagine worst decision, Imagine having to sit down. Did
we're both football fans though, yeah, imagine I would sit down. Okay,
the NFL needs to brainstorm about ten new rules. Okay,
how about we make the gold post wider.
Speaker 4: I mean, like this is what they talk of.
Speaker 3: They're talking about like getting rid of the three point
line altogether, or extending three point line from sideline to
sidelince so now you can't go in the corner and shoot,
and then reinstituting defense. I mean, they're talking about all
kinds of rule changes because the game sucks, it's not
fun to watch.
Speaker 4: They've they've legislated defense to the nineties. Yes, thank you.
I mean my my son people played defense.
Speaker 1: My son came to me and go said to me,
tell me who the three greatest Heat players in Heat
history Miami Heat ever were And I go, well, I know,
I said, the easy answer to that is Lebron, James
and uh O'Neill. Well, I said to Shaquille and he so,
I said, Shaquilla and he goes. Shaquille was was trash
when he was with that team, and he was, but
he helped them.
Speaker 4: But he he was the missing piece they want, they
want to ring they.
Speaker 1: Did with him.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Dwayne Wade, nurse Shaq came in.
Speaker 1: I'm just Dayne Wade.
Speaker 4: This is dwayn Wade's team.
Speaker 1: I'm just a big brother.
Speaker 2: Okay, it was d Wade, but that was he was
at the end.
Speaker 4: Shack was at the end of his career.
Speaker 1: Kobe.
Speaker 4: Kobe wanted Shack out of LA because he was out
of shape.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but wait, was that with Lebron on there too?
Speaker 4: No, Lebron came later. Lebron came with Chris Bosh and
joined Dwayne Wade.
Speaker 1: Okay, so d Wade and Shaq Okay, So I did
say Shack and he goes and he was kind of
trash there, man, I go, I said, but I'll tell
you about my two were d Wade, Lebron and then
I said, and he argued with me, Alonzo Mourning, and
he said great. He said to me, who's the guy
now that's in the argument with he wants one hundred
and fifty million and they're talking one hundred and thirty million.
Oh yeah, Butler, Jimmy Butler. My son said, Jimmy Butler,
and Jimmy Butler's had amazing stats. He goes, he's he's
the greatest. He may be the greatest. Miami heat just
doesn't get any.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but he's a pain in the you know what.
Speaker 1: But I go, go back, I said, I go, here's
the problem. You didn't see Alonzo morning play. No, I go,
you weren't around.
Speaker 2: I go, but there was a.
Speaker 3: Good one kidney you well, he when was the kidney?
I think that the kidney failure was after.
Speaker 2: It Yeah, I think it was after a forced retirement.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 4: But the point is that he was playing with one
functional kidney.
Speaker 1: Yes, And I said, he was a big dude. And
I said. The greatest thing is I said. There was
a guy who was once the head coach of the
McQuaid Knights. I said, and there was a fight and
I think it was Charles Oakley and Alonzo Morning, I think,
and I don't remember who was from Morning Morning. I
think it was Oakley, and they started to get in it,
and Jeff Van Gundy got in the middle of it,
and I said, you can look this up. I'm pretty
sure I haven't looked it up because I saw it.
I could still see it in my mind. He wound
up getting knocked down like they're swinging and he he
and he wasn't that tall. I don't know how. I've
never met Van Gundy. So he fell to the ground
and he wrapped his hands around Alonzo Morning's ankle, and
Alonso just kept walking with him, and he's like sweeping
the floor with Van Gundy. It was one of the
funniest freaking things I had ever seen. It is it's
gotta be out there. But Alonzo, to me, was an
amazing player.
Speaker 3: It was in a great shape when he and Larry
Johnson played together with the Hornets.
Speaker 4: A lot of kids in my forgot.
Speaker 3: He was, Oh, yeah, that's how Yeah, the original Hornets,
not this new hornt Yeah. And like everybody in school,
one out of every five kids had a Charlotte Hornets
starter jacket.
Speaker 4: Because of Zoe and l J.
Speaker 3: They were supposed to because Jordan Jordan are just now retired,
right y, Yeah, for the first time. So who's going
to take the man to an eighties cool colors? And
they were on TV and Alonzo Morning. I'm sorry Larry
Johnson played Grandmama. Yes, but you know, Alonzo had a
lot of injuries. Zoe couldn't and l j couldn't stay
in shape, and so and a bunch of Jordan came
back and put the whole matter to rest. But I
mean the nineties and even the late eighties when like
the bad Boy Pistons, like and you want to see
kids play defense, those guys played defense. You didn't go
into the lane without getting like your job broken, right
every time?
Speaker 1: Yeah, Well, I'm even watching h I mean, I'm watching
my son. He played against It's a team Friday night
and they had a big dude and he's saying to
me afterwards, the chirping. Now I knew one of the refs.
One of the refs used to be an intern of mine.
Oh wow, many many years ago when I was in promotions.
I was probably about twenty three, and he's now he
was a ref and he all of a sudden, he
yells at the kids, let us ref and then he
yelled at the opposing team's fan base. So then I
walked out to him Africa, so I don't want to
hear it. I go no.
Speaker 2: I was highly entertained. I loved it. I loved it.
Speaker 1: I go. I even loved when the kid tossed you
the or went to toss the ball to you or something.
You just let it go. He goes.
Speaker 4: I just he goes.
Speaker 1: Come on, guys. So then he said to me, is
at your son? I said, yeah, he goes, he goes. Boy,
his emotions weren't in the game, but he kept it
under control. So then Jamison's telling me about all the
chirping that was going on. And there was a kid
who was big. He was probably about six or two,
but heavy, like a big guy wide right, and so
Jamison wound up on him and they're kind of going
back and forth, and the guy said something to him,
and Jameison goes, man, I can smell you big time.
He goes, Man's whatever, bullshit thinks he's talking. But there
was a lot of physicality in there. There was a
lot and you know, he's throwing it. That's what I'm
saying that we got to get stronger because you could
be a great player. You're gonna have the size of
your brother. Yeah, and you could have.
Speaker 3: That's the thing about high school and college to let
you play, Yes, they don't what you play.
Speaker 4: Yeah, to play. But it's like nobody's playing defense.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think they need to.
Speaker 3: In three they got when they got rid of the
handschecking rule. That was the end of the game.
Speaker 1: That was the end of the game.
Speaker 3: That's why everybody it's not the fact that Jordan's better
than Lebron. That's not the issue. No, the fact that
Jordan's game. You give Michael Jordan, Scottie Pippen and those
Bulls teams. The ninety eight Bulls are running today's NBA.
Speaker 1: Yeah, no one's beating them.
Speaker 4: No one's beating them.
Speaker 1: Probably, I probably not.
Speaker 3: Don't you put any team that's won a champions in
the last twenty years of the nineties, they're getting their
asses kicked by the bulls.
Speaker 4: You want to know why I think defense?
Speaker 1: I think Michael. I think Lebron might have done well
in there. He's big, right, He's a big guy that
he could do that strong. I don't know.
Speaker 3: Kobe could probably play with those guys. Yeah, but I
don't think any of Lebron's teams could do it. I'm
not taking anything away from Lebron. It was a different
game than you could play defense. You can't play defense anymore.
Speaker 1: I wonder what's uh? I wonder how this will do
for the NBA though the Don chikn and no people are.
Speaker 4: Paying attention Davis.
Speaker 2: Yes, I mean this was a blockbuster trade. It really was.
Speaker 1: And if you're not look, I've always been told this
is not a basket where we do the podcast from
not a basketball down and whatever this is, I think seismic.
I think seismic for the.
Speaker 3: Let me put you this way, most people listening to
our podcast. If an NBA play, if the five best
NBA players walked down the street, you probably recognize them. Yes,
five best hockey players, I don't know. I don't think so.
Five best baseball players, I don't think so. No, five
best NFL players. Take the quarterbacks out of it.
Speaker 1: Did you see her?
Speaker 4: You may not recognize them.
Speaker 1: Our J's post, Yeah he was with Don Mattically.
Speaker 2: We could do a double take.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Itatic maddingly looks good.
Speaker 2: He looked, but he shaved the mustach.
Speaker 4: Yeah, well he saved the must as well.
Speaker 1: A go, But is why why did he say talking
Western New York? If maddically from Western New York?
Speaker 4: I was always upsessteredate Evansville, Indiana.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so he goes in talking Western New York. I
don't know what that was. Maybe they were talking about
the Bills and Josh Allen or something, but he's That's
what he wrote in his caption, and that's why I
thought he was from evan.
Speaker 3: Well, well, so he was friends with I think the
lake Ken Kaiser. Kaiser used to bring him out for
dinners every year. Okay, all right, that makes a lot
more sense in Rochester. I don't know if you ever
went the Buffalo that Madally's a good dude.
Speaker 1: I always felt bad somewhere. I have a picture with
a camera when I was into photography for a few
minutes until so it doesn't matter, but I think there's
probably even nude somewhere I could find, not of me,
but the uh. I remember going to Yankee game and
taking pictures of not Maddingly playing first base. But they
never won a World Series with Maddingly. Isn't that funny? Yeah?
Speaker 4: No, it's sad.
Speaker 3: The stark happens. That was that was the best team
matically ever played on Ye. They end up winning the
wild card in Toronto. The Blue Jays were classy enough
to shoot off fireworks after they had done it the.
Speaker 4: Yankees in their town. So they they're up two games
to none against Seattle.
Speaker 3: Seadlans comes back and beats them, and manningally goes, I
don't know if I'm gonna come back. I'm gonna take
a year off and think ninety six. They bring in
Tino Martinez. They're like, well, we got to move on
without you. And they win the World Series and Mannically
comes back and says, yeah, I'm done. I can't come back,
and they gave him Manically a ring. Nonetheless, they gave
him the ninety six World Championship ring.
Speaker 2: They said, yeah, but it's not the same you didn't
play for.
Speaker 1: It's not the same thing.
Speaker 4: No, it's not, it's not.
Speaker 3: But man like Matdically was like the greatest Jankie had
never played a World Series.
Speaker 1: I agree, he was a great player, fun guy, almost
the captain. It like Bucky Den. I don't remember Bucky
Den a little bit.
Speaker 4: Well badly had a mustache. Ye, Bucky never had a mustache.
Speaker 1: Bucky did not.
Speaker 2: Well, you couldn't have facial hair.
Speaker 1: As a Yankee.
Speaker 4: Yeah, right, well you couldn't. You had to have a trim. Oh,
you had to keep your hair well.
Speaker 1: Wait, Goose Gossage had the big handle.
Speaker 3: Yeah, depending on the style. But then Steiner's are cracking
the whip. By the way, there's a lot of angry
Yankee fans right now. Why now, they're saying that Hall
doesn't spend money. He only spends three hundred million dollars
in the payroll.
Speaker 4: But he's cheap, right me a break?
Speaker 1: All right?
Speaker 4: For Dan Barrillo, This Yankee team's gonna better than last year's.
Speaker 2: You watch you can't stop.
Speaker 1: Sorry, he's all you gotta.
