Speaker 1: The Mandy Connell Show is sponsored by Belle and Pollock
Speaker 1: Accident and injury Lawyers.
Speaker 2: No, it's Mandy Connell and Knee FM.
Speaker 3: Got way us through Free Andy Connell keeping sad thing.
Speaker 4: Welcome well them. It's a Tuesday edition of the show.
Speaker 4: I'm your host, Mandy Connell, and we shall barrow through
Speaker 4: I with the help of Anthety Rodriguez. You can call
Speaker 4: him a rod what Mandy Laura. Soon we are waiting
Speaker 4: a few moments from now, we should have the vote
Speaker 4: to release the Jeffrey Epstein files. And at this stage
Speaker 4: in the game, just get it over with, Just get
Speaker 4: it over with. It's time. I am going to be
Speaker 4: very cynical. I believe that a lot of the most
Speaker 4: damning documentation for high level and powerful people has probably
Speaker 4: already been lost accidentally, I'm sure, and certainly not at
Speaker 4: the best of you know, higher UPSID in the last
Speaker 4: many many years that all of this data and information
Speaker 4: has been held by law enforcement. But there will be
Speaker 4: a vote, and I think most Republicans are now going
Speaker 4: to vote for it because Trump has come out and said,
Speaker 4: you know what, release them, just do it. It's fine.
Speaker 4: So this drama hopefully will be coming to somewhat of
Speaker 4: a close, and it will be turned over to a
Speaker 4: bunch of journalists who will pour over every single detail
Speaker 4: and then they will find the most salacious parts that
Speaker 4: hurt whatever they view the opposition to be. They will
Speaker 4: then write stories about it. People on the right will
Speaker 4: only see the bad stories about people on the left,
Speaker 4: people on the left will only see the bad stories
Speaker 4: about people on the right, and everyone will drop back
Speaker 4: to their corners on point fingers, and then nothing will change.
Speaker 4: Or that's how cynical I am about this. So I've
Speaker 4: got good news, though really good news. I'm super excited.
Speaker 4: Tomorrow is the day. It is the KOA holiday food
Speaker 4: drive to benefit our friends at Food Bank of the Rockies.
Speaker 4: This year, our food banks are under tremendous stress, as
Speaker 4: many households are under tremendous stress, and they probably blew
Speaker 4: through a lot of food they didn't think they were
Speaker 4: going to blow through when snap benefits were not sent out,
Speaker 4: and now I'm guessing they're operating from a negative position.
Speaker 4: We'll hopefully be able to talk to someone from Food
Speaker 4: Bank of the Rockies tomorrow at the corner of Colorado
Speaker 4: and Yale, Yes right in front of the King swoopers.
Speaker 4: And this is one of my favorite things every year
Speaker 4: because I love meeting you guys. I see familiar faces
Speaker 4: now every year, people who stop by every single year.
Speaker 4: You can drop off some groceries, you can drop off
Speaker 4: a turkey, yep, and or you can make a donation
Speaker 4: because food banks can stretch your dollar a lot further
Speaker 4: than you can when it comes to.
Speaker 5: You know, buying in bulk and things of that nature.
Speaker 4: But if you can. I love donating food. I love
Speaker 4: donating food. Do you do this when you go to
Speaker 4: the grocery store, Anthony? Do you when you're walking in
Speaker 4: and the people are who are collecting for the food
Speaker 4: bank and they have the little cards? Do you ever
Speaker 4: get the little cards and go in and buy some
Speaker 4: extra stuff. I always love doing that.
Speaker 6: No, I don't seem where I go.
Speaker 4: You don't see them where you go. We have them
Speaker 4: all in Douglas County. There's one like a lot of saturdays,
Speaker 4: especially around the holidays, and I try to go buy
Speaker 4: some of the things that I think are a little
Speaker 4: on the pricey side that maybe other people can't afford
Speaker 4: to buy and donate. So I try to find the
Speaker 4: you know, the little slightly high dollar items and then
Speaker 4: I buy. I just like it. I like thinking that
Speaker 4: I'm gonna help somebody have a good Thanksgiving this.
Speaker 6: How much is your average turkey?
Speaker 5: I have not looked at turkeys.
Speaker 6: I think we'll go buy a few tomorrow.
Speaker 4: I usually buy. I usually spend, you know, fifty bucks
Speaker 4: and buy whatever fifty bucks worth of turkeys can get
Speaker 4: me and donate. And Mandy, did you give up trying
Speaker 4: to cross talk with Brownie? Well, it seems that mister
Speaker 4: brown does not value our time together and chooses to
Speaker 4: keep his time for himself.
Speaker 6: To be fair. And that's find to be fair.
Speaker 7: Yes, he could be just valuing your time because he
Speaker 7: gets you out on time and gets us into our
Speaker 7: show on time.
Speaker 6: I understand.
Speaker 4: I understand that. So that's you know, our time is
Speaker 4: supposed to be the last four minutes of his show.
Speaker 4: That's supposed to work.
Speaker 6: You do go in there and you smile.
Speaker 4: I smile quietly. Don't interrupt, Mike ready, it's not nice.
Speaker 4: I'm I'm now, I'm good. But you know what is
Speaker 4: it the old Bonnie Rate song. You can't make them
Speaker 4: love you. If they don't, you can't make their never mind.
Speaker 6: H Brownie, you can make them do things. Yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but Mandy, your buddy Massey is pushing for the
Speaker 4: release along with Bobert. Interesting guys, I find it.
Speaker 7: You know.
Speaker 4: I did hear Brownie say something at the end of
Speaker 4: his show that I reject categorically, and that is that
Speaker 4: Thomas Massey is doing this for political purposes. Thomas Massey,
Speaker 4: first of all, in addition to being one of the
Speaker 4: most interesting guys you'll ever meet, if he lost his election,
Speaker 4: he would go back to his house in Kentucky and
Speaker 4: he would continue inventing things and getting patents on stuff.
Speaker 4: Because even while he's been in Congress, he invents stuff
Speaker 4: all the time. He already has like thirty patents for
Speaker 4: important stuff. Like He's such an egghead. He is such
Speaker 4: a brilliant guy overall. He is not the kind of
Speaker 4: guy who eats, lives and breathes and dies for politics.
Speaker 4: He eats, lives and breaths for his principles that he
Speaker 4: tried to bring to DC. Only d hates people with principles.
Speaker 4: I said it yesterday, I will say it again, and
Speaker 4: he knows as well as I do that there are
Speaker 4: people that are being protected by not releasing the Epstein documents.
Speaker 4: And here's the thing, you guys, if people have been
Speaker 4: investigated and they have been exonerated, then the FBI can
Speaker 4: have that list ready to go. Hey, just so you know,
Speaker 4: we investigated these people extensively and found absolutely nothing that
Speaker 4: would be remotely suspicious. I mean, I'm just tired of like, oh,
Speaker 4: we can't just it's frustrating. It's always important people that
Speaker 4: we have to protect. It's never you or me or
Speaker 4: a rod right, We're never worthy of protection. It's just
Speaker 4: really well connected people that we have to be super
Speaker 4: concerned about accidentally being accused of something they didn't do,
Speaker 4: which would be awful, don't get me wrong. People at
Speaker 4: that level also have the ability to clearly and convincingly
Speaker 4: say here's what happened, here's what we did. Know they're there,
Speaker 4: and if there is there there, then they should get
Speaker 4: everything they deserve. By the way, I haven't even done
Speaker 4: the blog yet, but on the blog today, I have
Speaker 4: a fantastic story about one of those powerful people who
Speaker 4: is getting his come upance because of the Jeffrey Epstein
Speaker 4: emails that were released, Larry Summers. Larry Summers has bounced
Speaker 4: between Harvard and government high high level government for so
Speaker 4: many years now, rolling in very rarefied air and in
Speaker 4: high level circles is economic predictions have not been horrible,
Speaker 4: but certainly, I mean he's not Robert Reich, for God's sake.
Speaker 5: I mean they weren't horrible.
Speaker 4: But Larry Summers has now been outed as a disgusting creep.
Speaker 4: Why because even after Jeffrey Epstein was convicted of you
Speaker 4: child sex trafficking or accepted a plea for something much less,
Speaker 4: but everybody knew Larry Summer was still asking him for
Speaker 4: dating advice for how he could cheat on his wife.
Speaker 4: Now he and his wife may have some kind of arrangement.
Speaker 4: I don't know, but it's just gross. At one point,
Speaker 4: he calls Jeffrey Epstein is wingman gross gross. So I'm
Speaker 4: perfectly fine with these people getting out it. I'm perfectly
Speaker 4: fine with that anyway. Mandy, you don't like Michael Brown.
Speaker 4: I never said any like Michael Brown. I said Michael
Speaker 4: doesn't value our time together. That's totally different than me
Speaker 4: saying I don't like Michael Brown. Geez, you people, Mandy,
Speaker 4: on sale turkeys are a buck a pound. Well, we
Speaker 4: may have to play full price tomorrow, yep yep, Mandy.
Speaker 4: Will there be turkey bowling? No, there will not. I
Speaker 4: promise it.
Speaker 7: Every year.
Speaker 4: It never goes as well as I want it to.
Speaker 6: We've tried it once.
Speaker 4: I know, we've done it twice. Yeah, before you got here,
Speaker 4: we did it too. Is that a turkey?
Speaker 3: I hear?
Speaker 4: Gobbling ass? This text? Is that Kamala Harris? I I
Speaker 4: that's not nice. That's not nice, Mandy. I eats and
Speaker 4: lives to go against Trump. So I see why you're
Speaker 4: side two peas? What so I see why you're on
Speaker 4: his side two peas? I don't. I don't get it, Mandy.
Speaker 4: A lot of people do. Maybe, but who's two piece?
Speaker 4: Me and Trump?
Speaker 6: There you go?
Speaker 4: Oh please, let's do the blog and disabuse this poor
Speaker 4: deluded listener of that notion. Find the blog at mandy'sblog

Speaker 4: was broken today. Did you have any problems?
Speaker 1: No.
Speaker 6: I heard about this.

Speaker 4: but for the love of God, I thought the turkeys
Speaker 4: could fly.
Speaker 5: You've seen the WKRP, right, what huh what?
Speaker 4: Wait? Stop stop the pressus Anthony. Okay. WKRP in Cincinnati's
Speaker 4: Thanksgiving episode is one of the greatest holiday episodes of
Speaker 4: any show of all time, clearly, And it's about radio
Speaker 4: and it has one of the greatest scenes. And I
Speaker 4: can't spoil it. I cannot spoil it for you. Hey, Rod,
Speaker 4: don't look at it anything. Go watch the full episode
Speaker 4: when you have a chance already looking. No, don't just
Speaker 4: look at that part. You're gonna lose the whole joy
Speaker 4: of it. It's so perfect, perfect, one of the greatest
Speaker 4: holiday episodes of any show of all time.
Speaker 5: Ever, ever, ever, ever.
Speaker 4: I can't even think of another holiday episode of a
Speaker 4: show that was as good as that one ever in
Speaker 4: the history of showy holiday or Thanksgiving, any holiday. What
Speaker 4: are some of the greatest singles? Stand?
Speaker 7: I mean, you got this Star Wars Special, the Terrible
Speaker 7: Star Wars.
Speaker 4: No, No, that No, that was not good and it's
Speaker 4: good now because it's so bad. Can't believe someone made
Speaker 4: it with a straight face.
Speaker 7: All of the Simpsons, Treehouse of horrors are in the
Speaker 7: conversation as God as my witness.
Speaker 4: I thought turkeys could fly is one of the greatest
Speaker 4: lines in the history of television period, full stop, hands down.
Speaker 4: Can't be happening, Mandy. I think the fact that anytime
Speaker 4: you say turkey, there's a turkey gobble is funny. I
Speaker 4: don't think this can get enough. I don't think I
Speaker 4: can get enough of that turkey sound. Turkey calls for everyone. Okay,
Speaker 4: turkey that textor just said turkey. I just wanted to
Speaker 4: hear the call. So there you go.
Speaker 5: Anyway, turkeys are seventy nine dollars a pounds.
Speaker 4: Just FYI. Anyway, got a lot of stuff on the
Speaker 4: blog today. Okay, topic we must take on today a
Speaker 4: rod because let's be real, we have smart, creative people,
Speaker 4: some of whom are sports fans, but even the non
Speaker 4: sports fans are still smart and creative about sports nicknames.
Speaker 5: We gotta come up with a good nickname for Bonix.
Speaker 6: The leader in the clubhouse on Twitter was the Closer.
Speaker 4: I like that.
Speaker 5: I like that, but it's more like Peyton was the sheriff.
Speaker 6: We're looking for something like that.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I like the Closer, but if that becomes that
Speaker 4: kid if they win the Super Bowl, does he get
Speaker 4: a new Cadillac Second prize steak knives? You've probably never
Speaker 4: seen Glen Garry, Glenn Ross. Have you okay all of
Speaker 4: my jokes today, audience? I hope you're enjoying all of
Speaker 4: them because I'm getting the dull stare of the dairy
Speaker 4: cow for my youthful producer Jay's Louise.
Speaker 6: Yeah, no, I was born sometime racing.
Speaker 5: So great joke.
Speaker 4: Biggest news of the day that I am the most
Speaker 4: excited about, and it just gives you the level of
Speaker 4: the news that I got into today. The best news ever.
Speaker 4: They are finally breaking ground on a cell phone lot
Speaker 4: at DIA. That makes sense. I have no problem with
Speaker 4: the cell phone lot as it exists, other than the
Speaker 4: location is stupid. It should be on the right side
Speaker 4: of Pania, so you get off on the right, back
Speaker 4: on on the right instead of having to go down,
Speaker 4: turn right, turn left. It's just stupid where it's located.
Speaker 7: I mean, if it hadn't already been made, sure, you're right,
Speaker 7: but it's really not that big of a deal, and
Speaker 7: you know it's really not gonna be worth the construction
Speaker 7: all off.
Speaker 4: To the side sure, it's all off to the side.
Speaker 4: You don't need to do that. You don't even need
Speaker 4: to worry about that because it's all off on that
Speaker 4: scrabbly part.
Speaker 7: I would take the extra two minutes it takes to
Speaker 7: get to where you need to go for the lack
Speaker 7: of construction that it would take.
Speaker 4: Hello, Mandy, when a Rod said that, I gasped at
Speaker 4: the same time you ask you anyway, So there was
Speaker 4: an internet issue this morning, and then I started getting
Speaker 4: into the news and I was like, nah, you know,
Speaker 4: nothing's really grabbing me. I wanted to remind you have
Speaker 4: been thinking about going on the Mandy Connele adventure. We
Speaker 4: have three cabins left room for six people now cruising tours,
Speaker 4: trying to get a few more cabins because there's always
Speaker 4: last minute people that want to go. But if you
Speaker 4: are thinking about giving the best gift ever to your
Speaker 4: husband or wife, this is it. Truly, We're going next October.
Speaker 4: Find out all the information on the blog today and
Speaker 4: then I have a bunch of interesting stuff that I
Speaker 4: want to ask questions about. And one question I have
Speaker 4: for you skiers, Okay. Seinfeld's festivous Miracle is another phenomenal
Speaker 4: Christmas episode from a Jewish shows. No stop it. I
Speaker 4: will literally fight you in the hallway right now, we
Speaker 4: will go to fusticuffs. I have a coffee mug in
Speaker 4: my hand. I'll smash it against the wall and use
Speaker 4: this handle like a backwards whatever the thing is that
Speaker 4: goes across your.
Speaker 7: Knuckles, and I'll say it's about Dan time. Let's go
Speaker 7: square Upconnell. What the best man or woman went? I'll
Speaker 7: slap you around like a turkey.
Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, Mandy, my daughter's fantasy football team is Big
Speaker 4: Nick's Energy. Okay, that's been a pretty funny fresher. Yeah yeah,
Speaker 4: Glenn Gary, Glenn Ross one of the worst movies ever made.
Speaker 4: Hated it. I love it because I love dialogue and
Speaker 4: the dialogue and that is effect and another text or
Speaker 4: just text, Mandy, coffee is for closers. Exactly right, exactly right.
Speaker 4: The question I have for you guys who actually ski
Speaker 4: in this listening audience is that have you guys been
Speaker 4: priced out of skiing? Now there's a lot of young people.
Speaker 4: Gina Gondeck loves to ski. She's got the epic pass
Speaker 4: or icona on which one she asked she has a
Speaker 4: pass grant loves to ski, so I know he has
Speaker 4: a pass. But the prospect of going up the mountain
Speaker 4: for just like a day, to especially an Aspen, You're
Speaker 4: gonna be like two hundred dollars just in lift tickets
Speaker 4: if it's a holiday weekend. Is it worth it? And
Speaker 4: I'm curious because we've been talking a lot because Aron
Speaker 4: loves Las Vegas, and we've been talking a lot about
Speaker 4: how Vegas has seen a big dip in tourism because
Speaker 4: like people's perception of diminishing returns got high enough that
Speaker 4: they were like, it's not worth it. Now. The problem
Speaker 4: is that there are so many people from around the
Speaker 4: world for which Colorado is a lifetime dream destination to
Speaker 4: come skiing. So it's not like if every Colorado just said, nah,
Speaker 4: we're good, they would close their doors. I mean, it
Speaker 4: would probably hurt. But I'm curious because I don't ski.
Speaker 4: I've tried skiing, and Chuck tells me I'm pretty good
Speaker 4: at it. I don't believe him, but I especially can't
Speaker 4: lose the fear of dying. So I have to ask
Speaker 4: you guys this, and I'd love to know what you think.
Speaker 4: Hit me up on the Common Spirit Health text line five, six, six,
Speaker 4: nine zero. We'll be back with those after this what
Speaker 4: they thought or if they had been priced out of
Speaker 4: the market. There's an article today from our friends at
Speaker 4: Fox thirty one and they kind of did a cost
Speaker 4: analysis of based on average income and blah blah blah,
Speaker 4: and it's very technical and they did a fine, fine job.
Speaker 4: I don't want to make it seem like they didn't,
Speaker 4: but the reality is, I think the easier way is
Speaker 4: have you been priced out of skiing? The only thing
Speaker 4: that I can compare this to is as a Floridian,
Speaker 4: I feel very resentful about being priced out of Disney World.
Speaker 4: Don't laugh. When I was a kid, you could go
Speaker 4: to disney World for like twenty five dollars. And knowing
Speaker 4: now that a day at Disney will cost you a
Speaker 4: couple hundred bucks on certain days, that offends me and
Speaker 4: it makes me angry. And I wasn't going to Disney
Speaker 4: World every other weekend as some people used to when
Speaker 4: they were skiing a lot. And that's what I'm getting
Speaker 4: from a lot of you, Mandy. My husband and I
Speaker 4: used to go skiing every weekend in the late eighties
Speaker 4: and early nineties after we moved here in nineteen eighty five,
Speaker 4: we could get tickets for eighteen bucks a day. Even then,
Speaker 4: traffic was horrendous. Between the prices and the traffic, we
Speaker 4: no longer go, not to mention, I don't think I
Speaker 4: want to. In my sixties, I could never lose the
Speaker 4: fear of imminent death when I was skiing. Mandy. Yes,
Speaker 4: it's gotten too expensive for me. I started skiing at
Speaker 4: age two, and the last five years has just gotten ridiculous. Mandy.
Speaker 4: I haven't necessarily been priced out, I've been crowded out, Ayrod,
Speaker 4: we got a couple bo Nick's suggestions, the nixecutioner.
Speaker 6: Really, I like that a lot real.
Speaker 5: And then this one bow knows how to close.
Speaker 4: That's too long. It's got to be short and snappy. Yeah,
Speaker 4: just a nickname, Mandy. Never pay full price for a
Speaker 4: lift ticket. There are deals all over the once for day,
Speaker 4: dikeets and four packs, and the only holiday you should
Speaker 4: ski is on Christmas days, Skip Presidents and Mlkday, et cetera.
Speaker 4: I will not be doing any of that, Mandy. I
Speaker 4: don't ski because I've learned that trees don't like people,
Speaker 4: and they get revenge every chance they get. It does
Speaker 4: seem that way, Mandy, you see this watch it costs
Speaker 4: more than your car. Thank you, Glenn Gary, Glenn Ross heites.
Speaker 4: I love that you're still texting me. Quotes from that
Speaker 4: movie are east skiing, not to mention dealing with the
Speaker 4: traffic both up and down the mountain? Is it worth it?
Speaker 4: Time and money? Mandy is a divorced dad with a
Speaker 4: young daughter. Half the time. There is no way I
Speaker 4: can afford to take her and let her experience it.
Speaker 4: Grew up in Colorado, says this Texter skier since age six.
Speaker 4: I can get down Paulacini at the Bays and no issue.
Speaker 4: Now an ex skier hassle and cost too much. Why
Speaker 4: Yogi said, we get the military epic passes, and this
Speaker 4: year Hobby and Sun got Icon as well. It's expensive
Speaker 4: but worth the fun we have when we go, And
Speaker 4: I think that's it. I think the people that really, really,
Speaker 4: really enjoy it and are still committed to it, they're
Speaker 4: going to buy the passes.
Speaker 5: Mandy born and raised here in Colorado.
Speaker 4: Been skiing exactly once as a teenager and didn't like it.
Speaker 4: Never went again. Saved a crap ton of money. Apparently,
Speaker 4: yes you did this, texture said, has gotten out of control.
Speaker 4: Lift tickets during the holidays are over three hundred bucks.
Speaker 4: Kids ski school for group lessons can cost as much
Speaker 4: as five hundred bucks a day per kid. So adding
Speaker 4: that with the traffic and the other cost of going
Speaker 4: up there, my children and their small children are opting
Speaker 4: out of skiing, which is sad since they grew up
Speaker 4: skiing in Colorado. Mandy, too old to deal with a
Speaker 4: ridiculous traffic, bought a leveland four pack this year. Jason says, Mandy,
Speaker 4: we can take all six of us to Europe for
Speaker 4: a week or ten days for what one weekend of
Speaker 4: skiing costs. And I still have good knees. See that's
Speaker 4: my kind of Jason. You and I are we are
Speaker 4: we are? You know, similar souls, Mandy. I've been priced
Speaker 4: out of skiing for decades, which is a good thing,
Speaker 4: as my knees wouldn't take it anymore, Mandy. The beginning
Speaker 4: of the season, there was a chiron that misspelled Michael
Speaker 4: Poenix's last name. Oh that's yep, and I'm I can
Speaker 4: only guess I mean because the the X is right
Speaker 4: next to the S on the keyboard. Anthony, did you
Speaker 4: realize right next to me?
Speaker 7: Test someone yelled at him really close to the field,
Speaker 7: and he like stopped, like, I'm.
Speaker 6: Sorry, what was that?
Speaker 4: What you saying? Huh? Yeah, Mandy. I'm twenty eight and
Speaker 4: my extended friends group introduced me to snowboarding last season.
Speaker 4: I was instantly hooked as a beginner. For my first
Speaker 4: full season this year, I bargain shopped for all my gears.
Speaker 4: Spent fifteen hundred bucks for everything, including my Keystone pass.
Speaker 4: It's expensive, but I'm willing to spend it for my
Speaker 4: fun new hobby and I hope you enjoy a young
Speaker 4: person with no children.
Speaker 7: I used to go on a house payment. We used
Speaker 7: to go all the time as a kid with my dad.
Speaker 7: I haven't been in probably ten years.
Speaker 4: I think the last time I went to was five
Speaker 4: or six, so ten years for me at least, and
Speaker 4: I'm fine with that. Find that.
Speaker 5: We are both seventy years.
Speaker 4: Old and still ski nice. We have icon passes that
Speaker 4: blocks out the holidays. Oh dang it, that blocks out
Speaker 4: the holidays. Once a month, we drive up on Sunday
Speaker 4: afternoon while all the traffic is returning to the front range,
Speaker 4: ski Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, and drive back after skiing
Speaker 4: on Wednesday, none of that. Drive up in the morning,
Speaker 4: ski and drive back afterwards. Business. As retired people, we
Speaker 4: believe that it is our duty to leave the weekends
Speaker 4: and holidays to those poor working folks. You are exactly
Speaker 4: how I'm gonna be when I'm retired. I'm gonna be
Speaker 4: just doing all kinds of stuff Monday through Friday. Mandy
Speaker 4: is an old man, and then the spirit of Festivus,
Speaker 4: please drop a rod like a bag of dirt. People
Speaker 4: are wanting us to fight in the hallway. Some guys
Speaker 4: said I got twenty bucks on Mandy.
Speaker 7: I'm just saying, you fight on behalf of that mid show,
Speaker 7: and I'll fight on half of the best sitcom of
Speaker 7: all time, The Office.
Speaker 4: Okay, years ago we moved here from Texas. I was
Speaker 4: a flat land girl. No one could explain to me
Speaker 4: why my standing on the top of a mountain with
Speaker 4: slippery boards on my feet and then pointing them downward
Speaker 4: was a good thing to do, especially after getting up
Speaker 4: at the crack of dawn, getting stuck in traffic, and
Speaker 4: spending a boatload of money for a lipt ticket.
Speaker 5: Made it even better.
Speaker 4: I let my husband, kids and later grandkids have all
Speaker 4: the fun there you go. That is exactly right. Nix
Speaker 4: is the Mormon magician. Is he Mormon? I don't think
Speaker 4: we can make a religious commentary on Bonix on anyone's
Speaker 4: skiing keeps me exercising in my seventies.
Speaker 6: Google says, no, he is not Mormon.
Speaker 4: Thankful for a twenty five dollars season pass for seniors
Speaker 4: at Monarch. There you go, Hi, Bo, Nix's wife is pregnant.
Speaker 4: He's the fertile turtle. No, we're not doing that. Stop
Speaker 4: the Nixonator. I don't like that. No about time, Bo, No, No, Mandy, Benny,
Speaker 4: Natives are smart enough not to ski. There you go, Mandy,
Speaker 4: I worked part time at Keystone, only had to work
Speaker 4: one hundred hours, and I received a pass for me
Speaker 4: and my family.
Speaker 5: This was pre COVID. Yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah, As a Colorado native, I no longer go to
Speaker 4: the mountains. Summer and winter has too many people. You
Speaker 4: know what. I agree with that, Chuck, and I love
Speaker 4: to go to the mountains in mud season when nobody
Speaker 4: else is up there. No, granted, we're not skiing and
Speaker 4: we can't hike, but there's hot springs, there's all kinds
Speaker 4: of stuff to do in the mountains that don't involve actually,
Speaker 4: you know, doing things in the mountains, Mandy. Four packs
Speaker 4: are the way to go still. But hate the crowds, Mandy.
Speaker 4: The icon and Epic passes have made the slopes unbelievably crowded.
Speaker 4: Another reason that I fear imminent death, Mandy. Did you
Speaker 4: see the Kessler twins killed themselves? I have no idea
Speaker 4: who that is, but I'll find out because I gotta
Speaker 4: take a break. We'll be right back. A lot of
Speaker 4: people are texting in not great nicknames for Bonix. We'll
Speaker 4: be working on that very very diligently, very shortly. But
Speaker 4: someone just texted in and said the Kessler sisters killed themselves,
Speaker 4: and I was like, oh great, another influencer I don't
Speaker 4: know anything about. But I was wrong. Alice and Ellen Kessler,
Speaker 4: German twin sisters who singing and dancing talents made them
Speaker 4: famous across Europe in the nineteen fifties and sixties, died
Speaker 4: by joint assisted suicide on Monday. They were eighty nine.
Speaker 4: I mean the organization that helped them die, German Society
Speaker 4: for Humane Dying, said people who choose this option in
Speaker 4: Germany must be absolutely clear headed, meaning free and responsible.
Speaker 4: The decision must be thoughtful and consistent, meaning made over
Speaker 4: a long period of time and not impulsive. And the
Speaker 4: Kessler sisters, who spent their entire lives together performing on
Speaker 4: The Ed Sullivan Show, at one point decided they wanted
Speaker 4: to do this and would do it together. And they
Speaker 4: died on the same day. They never married. All they
Speaker 4: had was each other. I can't even imagine that sort
Speaker 4: of sibling relationship. I've always been fascinated by twins because
Speaker 4: the twins I know have either remained super super close.
Speaker 5: Or they really don't like each other.
Speaker 4: And I'm confused by the really don't like each other
Speaker 4: more than I am confused by the really really close,
Speaker 4: and I'm not really confused by the really really close.
Speaker 4: But it's kind of like parenthood, right, Like you think
Speaker 4: you know what it's like to be a parent until
Speaker 4: you actually are a parent, and then you look back
Speaker 4: at the you that thought they knew what being a
Speaker 4: parent was like, and you just gotta laugh inside. You're like, oh,
Speaker 4: that's adorable, because it's one of those things you don't
Speaker 4: know what it is until you're in it, right, You can't,
Speaker 4: you don't understand. And the twin thing, I think has
Speaker 4: got to be the same thing. I think it's just
Speaker 4: one of those things that if you're not a twin
Speaker 4: you can't really understand what it's like to be that
Speaker 4: close to a sibling. I just you know, I like
Speaker 4: my siblings, but I would never say that we are
Speaker 4: so that we're like that. I mean, my sister and
Speaker 4: I are never gonna schedule, like, you know, assistant suicide together.
Speaker 4: That's not gonna happen. I just I find that fascinating.
Speaker 4: So thank you kids, Thank you very much, very very good.
Speaker 4: Bo Mama. We could make bo mama jokes. Anthony get out?
Speaker 4: How about this? He's bo nuffied.
Speaker 6: No stop, no going backward people.
Speaker 5: How about El dark duga the turtle.
Speaker 4: But it sounds cooler. It's Spanish. Yeah, why is he called?
Speaker 4: Why is why?
Speaker 5: Where did the turtle come from?
Speaker 7: What is that?
Speaker 4: I mean is what is that? Put a Santa hat
Speaker 4: or a red and white meter and call him Saint
Speaker 4: Nick's during the holidays. Let's not make him a saint
Speaker 4: just yet. Let's st Nix.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 4: I mean, honestly, you know he's gonna have a charity
Speaker 4: at some point if he doesn't already. And when they
Speaker 4: have their big Santa Party could be Saint Nick's very
Speaker 4: very easily. Why does he need a nickname when he
Speaker 4: has such a cool and short name. Okay, Texter, have
Speaker 4: you never paid attention to sports? Have you never heard
Speaker 4: of Chris Berman? Have you never? And not to mention
Speaker 4: a really cool nickname looks really cool on merchandise. So
Speaker 4: there you go, Mandy. I can think of several sitcoms
Speaker 4: better than The Office. Friends to Charlie Sheen, that's seventies show,
Speaker 4: just to poll in the office, and nobody said the
Speaker 4: Office your workplace.
Speaker 6: Your office is generational.
Speaker 5: It's a generational Yes, it is.
Speaker 4: Trust me. When you're my age, someone else will come
Speaker 4: and say the Office is not good. This newer show
Speaker 4: is way better because that was the show that was
Speaker 4: cool when you were young and you had time to
Speaker 4: sit around and watch sitcoms. Nope, just as just saying,
Speaker 4: how about the widow Maker because he gives you a
Speaker 4: heart attack every game. I kind of like that.
Speaker 6: That's kind of good. But we don't want that to continue.
Speaker 4: We'd like to right right, like to even things out. Yeah, please,
Speaker 4: So right now we have the n Executioner. That's it.
Speaker 4: That's it. We've got the N executioner nix of time, No, no, rejected, Yeah, sure,
Speaker 4: short out. We'll get there, people, We'll get there. We're
Speaker 4: going to keep spitballing this thing until we figure it
Speaker 4: out when we get back. You know, I'm trying to
Speaker 4: tell you guys that injecting the free market into medicine
Speaker 4: would be helpful. Drug companies have announced twice now this
Speaker 4: year that they are lowering the prices of weight loss drugs.
Speaker 4: Part of it is because they are currying favor with
Speaker 4: the Trump administration, but part of it is the free
Speaker 4: market in action. I'll explain all of it. It is
Speaker 4: so nerdy and so interesting to me. Anyway, right after.
Speaker 1: This, The Mandy Connell Show is sponsored by Belle and
Speaker 1: Pollock accident and injury lawyers.
Speaker 2: No, it's Mandy Connell and on KOA, Ninem.
Speaker 3: God Way, Study, Kenney three, Andy Connell keeping.
Speaker 4: Sad bab Well for Local Welcome to the second hour
Speaker 4: of the show. I'm your host, Mandy Connell. That guy
Speaker 4: over there, he's Anthony Rodriguez, and together we'll take you
Speaker 4: right through three pm when KOA Sports will take over
Speaker 4: the streak. By the way, A rod is over all
Speaker 4: of our undefeated sports here in Colorado that I gets
Speaker 4: dropped one last night at the very last minute, ending
Speaker 4: our streak of good fortune when it comes to amazing
Speaker 4: sports play.
Speaker 5: Now, Okay, I know we're okay, we'll survive.
Speaker 4: So I saw this story on the blog today or
Speaker 4: on Denver Gazette today, and it's about the weight loss drugs.
Speaker 4: And there's a couple things about weight loss drugs. You
Speaker 4: guys know that I'm a big believer in the soda
Speaker 4: weight loss planet. I am, but I believe that there
Speaker 4: is a place for weight loss drugs because I've now
Speaker 4: seen so many people that I know who have for
Speaker 4: years fought this battle so hard and it has led
Speaker 4: to terrible health outcomes for them, and now they are
Speaker 4: taking control of their weight using GLP one inhibitors. And
Speaker 4: I think we should basically have an all of the above,
Speaker 4: all of the above strategy. For some people, they don't
Speaker 4: want to take long term weight loss drugs. For you,
Speaker 4: Sota is perfect, But the weight loss drugs have been
Speaker 4: prohibitively expensive. They're ridiculous. When they first came out, they
Speaker 4: were twelve hundred bucks a month, and there was a
Speaker 4: big push to get insurance to cover these weight loss drugs,
Speaker 4: and the insurance companies have been very slow to adopt,
Speaker 4: not least to which is because Medicare has not been
Speaker 4: covering these weight loss drugs. And usually it takes Medicare,
Speaker 4: you know, deciding to cover a drug before insurance companies
Speaker 4: will talk about covering it. There's a couple of things
Speaker 4: happening right now that have dramatically reduced the cost of
Speaker 4: weight loss drugs. Nova Nordisk back in March of this year,
Speaker 4: announced that they were dropping the price of their drug Wagovy,
Speaker 4: which is the version of ozempic. Ozempic is the drugs
Speaker 4: the drug for diabetes, specifically for type two diabetics, and
Speaker 4: then Wagovy is just a different dosage that is for
Speaker 4: people just want to lose weight. And back in March,
Speaker 4: they lowered the price of wigov from twelve hundred a
Speaker 4: month to four ninety nine a month if you are
Speaker 4: a cash pay person. Okay, why did they do that?
Speaker 4: They did that because third party payers have not come
Speaker 4: up and said they'll pay for these weight loss drugs,
Speaker 4: and they realized.
Speaker 5: The market out there is massive.
Speaker 4: It is huge. The number of people who need to
Speaker 4: lose weight in the United States of America our obesity
Speaker 4: rates are still way too high. The number of people
Speaker 4: who are flirting with obesity is way too high. And
Speaker 4: you know, doctor Oz, No it wasn't. Doctor Oz was, Yeah,
Speaker 4: it was. Doctor Oz made a comment the other day
Speaker 4: and said, you really want to do something about healthcare costs,
Speaker 4: live a healthier life. He is one hundred percent correct.
Speaker 4: As a matter of fact, the other day, when I
Speaker 4: laid out my many ways that we can inject the
Speaker 4: free market into the healthcare system, somebody commented, you know,
Speaker 4: all we have to do is for people to take
Speaker 4: care of themselves better and eat good food and get
Speaker 4: some exercise. And I messaged that guy or I posted
Speaker 4: back at him and said, as soon as you figure
Speaker 4: out how to control people's behavior, let me know. I'd
Speaker 4: love to do that. But the reality is is that
Speaker 4: you can't control someone else's behavior. They have to have
Speaker 4: the proper incentive. For a long time, when you sold
Speaker 4: health insurance, because I used to sell health insurance, and
Speaker 4: you would get to somebody who was really, really obese,
Speaker 4: there were a lot of insurance companies that simply said
Speaker 4: we're not going to cover you, or you're gonna have
Speaker 4: to pay more. And I people pitch a fit about
Speaker 4: having to pay more for their health insurance just because
Speaker 4: I'm fat, and I would very kindly, as nicely as
Speaker 4: I could, sit down and explain to them that statistically,
Speaker 4: someone who is as heavy as you are is far
Speaker 4: more likely to have more overall medical claims than a
Speaker 4: person who is of you know, good weight and good health.
Speaker 4: There's just it's statistically. It's born out over and over again.
Speaker 4: And one thing insurance companies love is statistics. It sucked,
Speaker 4: but you know what happened when I had a couple
Speaker 4: of people that were like, are you kidding me? I
Speaker 4: actually have to pay more? They lost weight. One guy
Speaker 4: lost weight and we rewrote his health insurance, not his
Speaker 4: health insurance, his life insurance. So young guy, he was
Speaker 4: like thirty seven, his wife had just had their third child,
Speaker 4: and they wanted to up their life insurance. And I
Speaker 4: come and meet him, and he said, good, seventy five
Speaker 4: pounds over the highest limit for me to get him
Speaker 4: any kind of life insurance even at his age he
Speaker 4: was only thirty five or the life insurance we got
Speaker 4: him was ridiculously priced. It was like two hundred dollars
Speaker 4: a month, which at the time was outrageous. He should
Speaker 4: have been able to get covered for like twenty five
Speaker 4: dollars a month. It was crazy. He calls me two
Speaker 4: years later and says, I need to rewrite my life insurance.
Speaker 4: I said, great, what are we doing? He said, I
Speaker 4: am in so much better physical health now. And he said,
Speaker 4: talking to me about how insurance companies statistically put you
Speaker 4: into these categories based on how big you are, because
Speaker 4: they already know that a certain percentage of people like
Speaker 4: you are going to die early, and a certain percentage
Speaker 4: of people like you are going to need long term care,
Speaker 4: and a certain percentage of people like you are going
Speaker 4: to have a heart attack. And he was like, I
Speaker 4: didn't want to be in that certain percentage anymore. So
Speaker 4: he embarked on a complete change. And I went back
Speaker 4: and dude was down like one hundred pounds, and I
Speaker 4: rewroted all of his life insurance to a much much
Speaker 4: of the preferred band of life insurance and put a
Speaker 4: ton of money back in his pocket, and not to mention,
Speaker 4: probably many more years on his life, just because that
Speaker 4: guy thought, I don't want to be in the percentage
Speaker 4: where bad things are probably going to happen. I want
Speaker 4: to be in the percentage where bad things are probably.
Speaker 5: Not going to happen.
Speaker 4: Anyway. Back to the drugs, so, Nova Nordisk is the
Speaker 4: parent company of Wogovi and Ozepek. In last March they
Speaker 4: lowered the price for cash paid down to four ninety
Speaker 4: nine a month. So just recently this month, President Donald
Speaker 4: Trump's administration outlined trump RX and the drug companies Nova
Speaker 4: Nordisk and Eli Lilly have now agreed to drop their
Speaker 4: prices considerably four weight loss drugs in exchange for medicare
Speaker 4: covering the drugs. The pricing by the way, the new
Speaker 4: pricing looks like this, It's going to go from four
Speaker 4: ninety nine a month down to three forty nine month
Speaker 4: for wegov and Nova is also offering a one ninety
Speaker 4: nine a month for the first two months of low
Speaker 4: doses of wegov and nozipic that you can get from
Speaker 4: telemedicine providers and not like Eli Lilly. Eli Lilly has
Speaker 4: their own platform now where you can get its weight
Speaker 4: loss drug, Zetbound. Lily has said it's going to sell
Speaker 4: a starter dose of Zetbound for two ninety nine a
Speaker 4: month and additional doses at up to four forty nine.
Speaker 4: Those are fifty dollars reductions from current prices to sales
Speaker 4: directly to patients. My prediction is is that very soon
Speaker 4: Eli Lilly will drop the price to match Nova NORDESK.
Speaker 4: The reason why this is happening, there's two huge parts
Speaker 4: of this number one, three big parts of this number. One.
Speaker 4: When insurers who cover most people in the market in
Speaker 4: the United States of America, private insurance, when they said
Speaker 4: we're not going to cover these drugs, all of a sudden,
Speaker 4: their market hit a choke point. So they're like, okay, well,
Speaker 4: we got to do something else. That these insurance companies
Speaker 4: are not going to cover these drugs, we got to
Speaker 4: do something. So then they decide, okay, we're going to
Speaker 4: drop the price. We're gonna go down to four ninety
Speaker 4: nine a month. But that price point also felt too high.
Speaker 4: So I guarantee you, I am absolutely positive that these
Speaker 4: drug companies have done a crap ton of market research
Speaker 4: to find out what they believe the sweet spot for
Speaker 4: pricing is going to be, and they can sell somebody
Speaker 4: on a drug that is going to cost them. Let's say, hey,
Speaker 4: this drug is going to cost you eleven bucks a day,
Speaker 4: probably spending more on that in food right now, You're
Speaker 4: gonna save big just by being on this drug, losing
Speaker 4: that weight once and for all. Now, the second part
Speaker 4: of this is that the Trump administration wants to lower
Speaker 4: drug prices. There's a couple of things that you can
Speaker 4: do right now to lower drug prices, I think significantly.
Speaker 4: The first of which is stop allowing drug companies to
Speaker 4: monkey with formulation right before their patent gets out, and
Speaker 4: it allows them to extend a patent longer than it
Speaker 4: was originally intended to be extended. When I brought this
Speaker 4: up the other days, a Texter hit me up and said, Mandy,
Speaker 4: why would you allow your competitors to have access to
Speaker 4: your product to make a new one. Well, as soon
Speaker 4: as say the dice in blow dryer hits the market
Speaker 4: by the dice In company, right there is within eighteen
Speaker 4: months a blow dryer by a knockoff company that works
Speaker 4: a very very similar way, extremely similar. We don't protect
Speaker 4: other industries. We protect the pharmaceutical company because in theory
Speaker 4: they're going to be looking for cures to big diseases
Speaker 4: and stuff like that. But the reality is is that
Speaker 4: most of the time they're just trying to help men
Speaker 4: get an erection and women not get hot flashes. Right,
Speaker 4: they're going where the money is, and now they've got
Speaker 4: weight loss drugs to sell. The proper incentive might be
Speaker 4: making people pay for their own coverage and added fat
Speaker 4: premiums wouldn't hurt either of that from Game or Galt
Speaker 4: on the text line. So what are we doing here?
Speaker 4: This is in my mind, I mean, it's good news.
Speaker 4: There are a lot of people who could benefit from
Speaker 4: these drugs, especially if you've got a lot of weight
Speaker 4: to lose. You can do that two months, you know,
Speaker 4: offer of one ninety nine a month, see if it
Speaker 4: works for you. I've also, by the way, had a
Speaker 4: lot of friends that these products did not work for.
Speaker 4: They did not get the kind of appetite suppression that
Speaker 4: they were promised. So these are not, you know, the
Speaker 4: end all be all. But we've got the third party
Speaker 4: not distorting the We've got market pressures wringing the price
Speaker 4: down already, and then you've got pharmaceutical companies working with
Speaker 4: the Trump administration, probably settling on a price that they
Speaker 4: themselves had already targeted before conversations began with the federal government.
Speaker 4: So the federal government is now going to be buying
Speaker 4: those drugs as well. I mean, this is both a
Speaker 4: collision of crony capitalism and the free market at work.
Speaker 4: It's really fascinating. It's really really fascinating to see this
Speaker 4: whole work out. You know, Donald Trump is obsessed with
Speaker 4: everyone being skinny, which is hilarious, but whatever. He's on
Speaker 4: record as being highly critical of women when they put
Speaker 4: too much weight on it. Doesn't like that. He doesn't
Speaker 4: like chunky women, and he lets him know it. So
Speaker 4: this is not surprising. I just I found this incredibly interesting.
Speaker 4: But if you've been thinking about weight loss drugs but
Speaker 4: haven't because the price they may be come in your way.
Speaker 4: Also on the blog today, still a Rod, we've still
Speaker 4: not had any snow We are now right now, we
Speaker 4: are fourth all time for the latest first snowfall.
Speaker 6: If I made my response to that news.
Speaker 4: Yes, I don't want to seem like I'm complaining.
Speaker 7: Because this fall has been my favorite fall of all time, glorious.
Speaker 4: It truly like someday, when we're really old, a Rod.
Speaker 7: Will be like remember the fall of twenty twenty five.
Speaker 4: It was wonderful happen hiking at the end of October,
Speaker 4: and it was spectacular spectacular.
Speaker 7: Well, just so you know, this is where people our
Speaker 7: listeners say, what are you talking about?
Speaker 6: This state's plenty blue?
Speaker 4: What I don't get it?
Speaker 6: Snow politics?
Speaker 4: Oh okay, anyway I tried. That was wanh wah wah
Speaker 4: blah wah. Yeah, thank you, thank you. How about this
Speaker 4: one the nicktator, the Knicks tator. That sounds a little
Speaker 4: like you're Larry the cable guy on that one. The
Speaker 4: ntator Nick.
Speaker 6: Yeah, that does not get her to yeah.
Speaker 4: Bo zempic Okay.
Speaker 7: We're trying to game more when not trim winds.
Speaker 4: Yeah, to the texture just randomly texted in black guys
Speaker 4: like chunky women. Okay, I mean, are you a black guy?
Speaker 4: Are you testifying? Cool hand Nicks? Oh, I like that.
Speaker 7: No, it has to be one has to be one word. No,
Speaker 7: the bank, the blank bo Winkle, get out. No, we're
Speaker 7: getting worse. Mandy bow chick a bow wow.
Speaker 4: No, nifty Nicks don't like that one like that one
Speaker 4: at all, Iron Knicks No, stop, who's Nicks?
Speaker 5: No, no, nix it no, no, we'll have to work on.
Speaker 6: We're getting worse.
Speaker 5: We are getting worse.
Speaker 4: But now back to our snow because where we are
Speaker 4: Denver's latest first snowfall is from our friends over at
Speaker 4: CBS four. Right now, we are sitting pretty in fourth place, Anthony,
Speaker 4: because December tenth of twenty twenty one was our latest snowfall,
Speaker 4: coming in at point three inches. After that, we've got
Speaker 4: November twenty first, nineteen thirty four, the thirties were notoriously hot.
Speaker 4: Then November nineteenth, nineteen thirty one.
Speaker 6: Say we're gonna be top three.
Speaker 4: No, we're number four. If we make it till tomorrow,
Speaker 4: which we are three, we will be tied for third.
Speaker 4: And then if we make it to Friday without snow,
Speaker 4: we will be tied for second. So we'll see.
Speaker 7: I mean Friday sounds like mountains but not here. So
Speaker 7: I think we're gonna get top three. Well, we most
Speaker 7: number two.
Speaker 4: Number two was November twenty first. Oh, we're gonna get
Speaker 4: that too, maybe going to be number two.
Speaker 7: We're not gonna We're off to as Dave Fraser, by

Speaker 4: you will also see Dave Fraser, who is going to
Speaker 4: do whether Wednesday live with us tomorrow at twelve thirty,
Speaker 4: So we will be able to find that out. Okay,
Speaker 4: So I've got an interesting story about us doing something
Speaker 4: good for the environment that may have totally messed up
Speaker 4: the environment. No good deed goes unpunished, so listen to
Speaker 4: this headline climate conundrum. Even cleaning up our air appears
Speaker 4: to be heating up the earth for decades, Reducing air
Speaker 4: pollutions seem like an obvious wind wind for public health
Speaker 4: in the planet. Cleaner air means fewer respiratory diseases, art problems,
Speaker 4: and premature deaths. Paradoxically, however, research reveals an unexpected side
Speaker 4: effect of cleaning up our air, cleaner skies may actually
Speaker 4: be speeding up ocean warming in some of the world's
Speaker 4: most critical marine regions.
Speaker 5: The culprit changes in clouds.
Speaker 4: Between twenty three and twenty twenty two, marine clouds over
Speaker 4: the North Atlantic and Northeast Pacific became noticeably less reflective.
Speaker 4: In this case, the clouds could be likened to giant
Speaker 4: mirrors in the sky, bouncing sunlight back into space before
Speaker 4: it can warm the oceans below. When those mirrors get dimmer,
Speaker 4: more heat gets through. What's happening. The clouds are now
Speaker 4: reflecting about three percent less sunlight per decade than they
Speaker 4: did twenty years ago, and the extra solar energy is
Speaker 4: warming the oceans beneath them. Wait a minute, warming the
Speaker 4: oceans with the sun. Huh? How is that our faults?
Speaker 4: What's interesting is that it seems stricter air pollution controls
Speaker 4: have reduced the number of well gunk in our air
Speaker 4: sulfur particles specifically, but reducing those sulfur particles has also
Speaker 4: increased cloud brightness. When sulfur dioxide from burning colon enter
Speaker 4: enters the atmosphere, it creates tiny articles that I like
Speaker 4: seeds for cloud droplets. The more seeds you have, the
Speaker 4: more droplets form, and the clouds with lots of small
Speaker 4: droplets are wider and more reflective. So basically, by pulling
Speaker 4: out all the air pollution out of the clouds, we've
Speaker 4: made them less reflective and are heating the oceans, leading
Speaker 4: to our sure death. If I listen to the environmentalists
Speaker 4: and I don't fascinating that when more sunlight reaches the
Speaker 4: Earth it warms things, hm hmm. Almost like maybe there's
Speaker 4: a different reason. I can't sort it out. It seems
Speaker 4: too complicated for someone like me. Nxation, the nixation, no nickname.
Speaker 4: We're finding a nix name. Just we'll just call them nickname.
Speaker 4: Gotta like catch phrase from a free guy nick name
Speaker 4: catch prase nick name, Mister bow scrambles. Okay, wait a minute,
Speaker 4: I kind of like that.
Speaker 7: Stop Master bo Scrambles. What's best chagibt the Bo Show.
Speaker 7: Give me ten good nicknames for Bow, Nicks, nix, the teen.
Speaker 7: Let's see if any of these from tagybt are better
Speaker 7: than the ones we have gotten.
Speaker 6: Top ten bo Knows Nicks.
Speaker 7: Mix the criticism, What in the World, The Oregon Outlaw,
Speaker 7: the mile high.
Speaker 5: Marksman, oh, I kind of like that one.
Speaker 7: Bronco bo Nix at Night, Captain Calm, the Auburn Alchemist,
Speaker 7: because you went to Auburn before the Knicks. Cannon Nix
Speaker 7: in the mix. That is the ten from Chad GBT.
Speaker 7: The Mile High Marksman's pretty good.
Speaker 6: I like that.
Speaker 5: A little bit about Bozuka.
Speaker 6: That's that's strong.
Speaker 4: Both is strong, boxinga I'm writing down Bozuoka not bad.
Speaker 6: Mile High Marksman put that on there too. That's right,
Speaker 6: daring good.
Speaker 4: Okay, we'll be back. We'll take those throughout the show.
Speaker 4: But when we get back, I want to talk about
Speaker 4: AI and I want to know how you feel about it,
Speaker 4: because I have mixed feelings. I kind of love it,
Speaker 4: I kind of hate it, but yeah, I'm a little
Speaker 4: worried about the future of society.
Speaker 5: We'll do that next you ready a rod.
Speaker 6: Here we go.
Speaker 4: I'm not saying these are good. I'm just saying they're
Speaker 4: coming in. Bozilla. I actually kind of like bos I
Speaker 4: like Bozilla down so so far. Let me let me
Speaker 4: review what we do have on the sheet here. Uh,
Speaker 4: we have the Nixecutioner, which I love, but not good
Speaker 4: for bo Nix's own merch line.
Speaker 5: Maybe just our merch line.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Rod, then we have Bozuoka, the mile High Marksman
Speaker 4: and Bozilla.
Speaker 5: That's where we are right now.
Speaker 4: Tricky Nicks. I kind of like Tricky Nicks. No noting
Speaker 4: that one because that makes them kind of feel like,
Speaker 4: uh oh, just tricks, only tricks. Somebody pointed this out, Mandy,
Speaker 4: You and a Rod totally missed it. It's the nix
Speaker 4: Nator tagline. I'll bring us back.
Speaker 6: Maybe maybe.
Speaker 4: Yeah. A couple of people are recommending Nixer the Fixer
Speaker 4: in today's gambling scandal era. Let's just leave out anything
Speaker 4: that could be remotely attached to that. Bonen the Destroyer. Okay,
Speaker 4: I love that one.
Speaker 7: That's pretty good. That's really good, but also doesn't sound right.
Speaker 6: Yeah, you know what I mean.
Speaker 4: It doesn't really get a squeaky clean kind of image.
Speaker 4: But I wrote it down anyway because I just liked it.
Speaker 4: The Jedi why, I don't think he's ready for that yet. No,
Speaker 4: sat Nix Now that almost sounds like an insult. I
Speaker 4: know what you're saying that he doesn't get said. Oh
Speaker 4: how about this one? I Rod Bowley Moley, Ah, that's okay, yeah, hello, okay, away,
Speaker 4: this is Dirk I opened the free ire radio app
Speaker 4: and a pop up appeared suggesting a host from Cincinnati.
Speaker 4: I've never listened to. How is that possible? They only
Speaker 4: talk show to do on the app is Mandy and
Speaker 4: sometimes KAA Sports. Don't ask me questions about the app.
Speaker 4: I got nothing for you, no idea. I don't know
Speaker 4: how the man behind the curtain does it. I have
Speaker 4: no clue.
Speaker 6: Well, just know it's free to use.
Speaker 4: There you go, Crystal Clear IYET radio app. What about Bodacious?
Speaker 3: No?
Speaker 4: No, how about the Ranger?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 4: Elway is the Duke, Manning was the sheriff. Yep, bo
Speaker 4: Nix is the Ranger.
Speaker 6: I like that. Maybe I like that it's in Colorado
Speaker 6: as well.
Speaker 5: Pyrotechnics.
Speaker 6: That's pretty good. But no, that's really good.
Speaker 7: Not We're going for no more along the lines of
Speaker 7: like the Ranger, he doesn't even have to have his
Speaker 7: name in it per se, and doesn't have to make
Speaker 7: sense because the Duke isn't in Elway's name, the sheriff
Speaker 7: isn't in Peyton's name.
Speaker 6: You know what I'm saying. Yeah, I love the puns.
Speaker 6: I'm here for them.
Speaker 7: Yeah, But like the Marksman, the Mileheigh Marksmen, the Ranger
Speaker 7: stuff like that.
Speaker 6: Brand ability.
Speaker 5: Okay, what about the Warrior a few times?
Speaker 7: It's weird because there are there are teams. There are
Speaker 7: teams called the Warriors on the NFL, but Bo constrictor
Speaker 7: instead of so strong.
Speaker 6: Yeah, but not in line what I'm saying.
Speaker 4: I don't think Sean's pawn is very flattering. I'm not
Speaker 4: going to go with that one.
Speaker 6: Is he No, he has, and.
Speaker 4: We're get on a kid. Oh, we have won the
Speaker 4: Oregon Outlaw, but we want to give him something that's
Speaker 4: more Denver centric. I think the Stallion nothing really Oh
Speaker 4: I like that, Yeah, the Stallion. I mean, I'm sure
Speaker 4: his wife would like that for him.
Speaker 6: All Right, that's good. That's good. That's really good.
Speaker 4: The Razor bo Nicks, it's all in the name.
Speaker 6: Would fit in well with the Andy Lorians.
Speaker 4: Depeche Mode, Depeche bo Mode, depeche Okay, yeah, it's.
Speaker 6: Really easy because his name is really easy.
Speaker 4: Yep.
Speaker 6: You know it's tied for the shortest name in NFL history.
Speaker 4: What bo Nicks is it?
Speaker 5: What's the other who's he tied with?
Speaker 6: Uh, let's say bow Knicks tied longest name.
Speaker 7: I know he was tied. I don't think he is
Speaker 7: the shortest. Oh no, he is, Wait not tied tie Law.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, there you go, Yep, there you go. It's
Speaker 4: a couple of others, tie Law. All Right, my friends,
Speaker 4: let's talk for a second about AI, because I really
Speaker 4: want to. I think this is a very interesting and
Speaker 4: the suggestions are not getting any better. They're really not
Speaker 4: both one Kenobi, No, that's.
Speaker 7: Really creative though you're speaking my language textures.
Speaker 4: I kind of like this when the Wrangler, Like, I
Speaker 4: kind of like that. That kind of suits.
Speaker 6: Yeah, if he was like a wyoming guy.
Speaker 4: No, But but I like the Ranger because he's, you know,
Speaker 4: riding down the field, down the field in the stallion.
Speaker 4: I like the staalue. Yeah. Anyway, let me talk about
Speaker 4: AI for a moment. This is actually the mile high Sniper.
Speaker 4: I don't think that they want anything that sounds like gun.
Speaker 4: That's why my favorite is still an executioner. But it's
Speaker 4: too it has it has violent overtowns that are just
Speaker 4: not right for kids today. Okay, anyway, let's talk about AI.
Speaker 4: I'm still trying to get to the story. The headline
Speaker 4: of the Wall Street Journal is the most joyless tech
Speaker 4: revolution ever. AI is making us rich and unhappy as
Speaker 4: the Magnificent Seven composite, as they call it. Those are
Speaker 4: the seven biggest tech organizations on the stock market.
Speaker 5: Their stock has just skyrocketed, It's up one.
Speaker 4: Hundred and sixty nine percent, and exactly the same well
Speaker 4: opposite trajectory. Consumer confidence about AI has dropped. So it's
Speaker 4: interesting about this article, and it is a it's interesting.
Speaker 4: It is paywalled, and I could not unpaywall it, so
Speaker 4: I'm sorry about that. But one of the points that
Speaker 4: they make is that when we all lived through the
Speaker 4: rise of the dot com era, and I am a
Speaker 4: gen X, so I am one firm in the analog age,
Speaker 4: one foot in the digital age. I lived through the
Speaker 4: bridge of that. So I remember at the beginning of
Speaker 4: the dot com boom, it felt like a very hopeful
Speaker 4: time because the Internet was a.
Speaker 5: Great equalizer, right.
Speaker 4: You didn't have to be, you know, a huge company
Speaker 4: in order to start a business. You could start a
Speaker 4: business and create something amazing online. And it's happened over
Speaker 4: and over again. I mean, Jeff Bezos became a billionaire
Speaker 4: because of that attitude. There was a hopefulness for average
Speaker 4: Americans about what the technology of the Internet could do.
Speaker 4: The exact opposite is true about artificial intelligence. There are
Speaker 4: a lot of people who are very disconcerted about what
Speaker 4: artificial intelligence is going to mean in terms of in
Speaker 4: the future, in terms of career prospects in the future,
Speaker 4: and people are very very uncertain about it. So most
Speaker 4: people totally get that tech is going to make some
Speaker 4: jobs obsolete. But the big worry right now is that
Speaker 4: AI isn't just going to make some jobs obsolete, It's
Speaker 4: going to make humans obsolete. In a recent report economist
Speaker 4: of Goldman's Sachs, who are trying to map the downsides
Speaker 4: and episodes of AI, they say that the latter meaning
Speaker 4: making humans obsolete, is an acceleration in productivity that eventually
Speaker 4: makes human input in knowledge based work tasks redundant. It's
Speaker 4: all very scary where we are right now. And I
Speaker 4: was just wondering because again, you guys still not getting
Speaker 4: thirty zero nicks, No, thirty odd nicks, No, no, nope,
Speaker 4: still not good you guys. But I like your efforts.
Speaker 4: I like the fact that you're still What about the
Speaker 4: deputy that sounds like he doesn't have full power though
Speaker 4: I've seen that one. What about the well, the captain, what.
Speaker 6: About people have said the captain as well?
Speaker 4: What other I mean, what about the general march of
Speaker 4: the troops down the field?
Speaker 7: Yeah, but I don't want a great low rate you
Speaker 7: can get online because a low quarterback?
Speaker 4: Right, what about bo Daddy? Hey you know he's bow Daddy. Now, No, no, nixologist,
Speaker 4: no anything.
Speaker 7: That's okay, Yeah, it's really hard hardly thought.
Speaker 4: Bomaha, Bah, that's good. I like that a lot. That's
Speaker 4: that's good. We'll be right back on X right now.
Speaker 4: Jesse Kelly just tweeted out something that I think is
Speaker 4: so important that I want to just remind you. It
Speaker 4: says pro tip. They're going to be names in those
Speaker 4: files of people who aren't even accused of doing anything wrong,
Speaker 4: and those people are going to sue you out of
Speaker 4: your life savings when you tweet that they are pedophiles
Speaker 4: just trying to save you some money. Accurate. Accurate. There
Speaker 4: you go back to AI for a moment, and I'd
Speaker 4: like to thank all of you. Oh wait a minute,
Speaker 4: Uh oh, we have a contender.
Speaker 6: Let's hear it.
Speaker 4: Wait, what was John Elway the duke? Okay, so after
Speaker 4: he beat KC says this Texter, we should call him
Speaker 4: the Chief. I kind of like that, Chief Nix. We
Speaker 4: do have some good ones. The rifleman that's a little
Speaker 4: too gunny, well, like it's just not gonna stick. Um,
Speaker 4: we're not gonna call him the big boner, that's not happening.
Speaker 4: The mile High.
Speaker 6: Marshal, the Marshall like that. The Marshall could be short too.
Speaker 4: Well, that's what I'm saying. I kind of like the
Speaker 4: mile high Marshal. And then I like that better than
Speaker 4: mile high marksmen because they're not going to do marksmen
Speaker 4: because of the guns. Yeah, I like the marsh so
Speaker 4: mile high Marshall. You know, we're going to give these
Speaker 4: to the guys in the afternoon and and and get
Speaker 4: their view on whether or not we like it.
Speaker 6: Hate all of them, probably West Ryan.
Speaker 4: A couple of people have said, does Bo even need
Speaker 4: a new nickname? Does he have a nickname before?
Speaker 6: Before? We're all bow Leavers, so we have nicknames.
Speaker 4: A lot of people like the Marshall. Like a lot
Speaker 4: of people like the Marshall. That is a good one.
Speaker 4: That is a very good one. Oh no, mister bow No,
Speaker 4: that's not going to be a thing. I don't even
Speaker 4: know if Ayro got that reference. I love it that
Speaker 4: I talk about AI, which could take over.
Speaker 5: The world and all of our jobs and.
Speaker 4: Put us all out of work and have us all
Speaker 4: living on the streets as the robots take over, and
Speaker 4: you guys, one text message and the rest of it
Speaker 4: is nicknames for bonus, I asked.
Speaker 7: Speaking of AI, I asked, why should bow Nicks be
Speaker 7: called the Marshal so we can justify it right right.
Speaker 7: He runs the offense like a field marshal. Marshalls are
Speaker 7: strategic leaders, the orchestrate, direct control the battlefield. Marshall evokes
Speaker 7: authority and composure. Obviously, it sounds like an old school
Speaker 7: Western sheriff, perfect for Denver, clean, unique and brandable. And
Speaker 7: it plays off how he marshals the troops director serve
Speaker 7: that is fantastic protections, shifts formations, literally marshaling in offense.
Speaker 4: I feel like we've I feel like we've got a winner.
Speaker 4: Marshall Nicks the We'll call him.
Speaker 5: The mile High Marshall and then it'll just be shortened
Speaker 5: to the Marshal.
Speaker 6: I like it.
Speaker 4: Good. Oh God, we're good at this. People took us
Speaker 4: long enough. It only took us a one to fifty
Speaker 4: two to come up with some woo but here we
Speaker 4: are better than ever. And there's a lot of people
Speaker 4: like the shoot us we cannot it can't be gun
Speaker 4: themeed that just will not fly. Maybe syllable, maybe Cindy silly,
Speaker 4: but there you go, Mandy. I still like the Widow Maker.
Speaker 4: I you know, after all these games, it don't so
Speaker 4: so bo stop it, stop it right now.
Speaker 5: Oh anyway, when we get back.
Speaker 4: I have so many stories on the blog today that
Speaker 4: are just totally unrelated. But there is a couple videos
Speaker 4: that I really want you to gotch. I can't play
Speaker 4: him on the air because they're Bill Maher and they've
Speaker 4: got cursing. But Bill Maher is probably the last classical
Speaker 4: liberal in Hollywood right now, because as the Democratic Party
Speaker 4: has moved further left away from him, he has remained
Speaker 4: staunchly classically liberal, meaning very libertarian, not thinking that government
Speaker 4: has the answer. And Patton Oswald, who I used to
Speaker 4: think was really funny. I used to follow him on
Speaker 4: Twitter and he really made me hate him on Twitter.
Speaker 4: And after watching this interview with Bill Maher where they're
Speaker 4: sitting around, they're talking about all this stuff, the stuff
Speaker 4: that Patton Oswalt has never even heard of in terms
Speaker 4: of the acadodal nature of some of the things that
Speaker 4: are happening in the name of DEI and Woke and
Speaker 4: all this stuff. It's like it just reminds you of
Speaker 4: the fact that we are getting our news from somebody
Speaker 4: completely different than they are getting their news. Nevertheins you
Speaker 4: shall meet, right, I mean, we are on a different
Speaker 4: page so hard, it's not even funny. Marshall is lame,
Speaker 4: says this texter. You're the only one. You're the only one. No,
Speaker 4: we already nixed, sir, nix a lot, so thanks for that,
Speaker 4: but we're moving on.
Speaker 1: The Mandy Connell Show is sponsored by Belle and Pollock
Speaker 1: Accident and Injury Lawyers.
Speaker 2: No, it's Mandy connelln FM.
Speaker 7: God.
Speaker 3: The Nytree, Andy Connell, Keith sad Bab Welcome Local, Welcome to.
Speaker 4: The third hour of the show. I'm your host, Mandy Connell.
Speaker 4: That guy over there Anthony Rodriguez. Yeah, we will take
Speaker 4: you right up until three pm when KOA Sports takes over. Okay, kids,
Speaker 4: I have a mission for you tomorrow. I need you
Speaker 4: all to come see us at the corner of Colorado
Speaker 4: and Yale at the Kings Sooopers. It is our annual
Speaker 4: holiday food drive benefiting Food Bank of the Rockies. We're
Speaker 4: going to be on site from nine am to nine pm.
Speaker 4: All the shows between nine and nine are broadcasting from there,
Speaker 4: and that means yours truly will be there from noon
Speaker 4: to three. Now, every single year, my listeners, in my opinion,
Speaker 4: donate more money or more food than any other listeners
Speaker 4: on the station. I'm just saying, so I need you
Speaker 4: guys to continue that tradition. Donate turkeys, food or cash
Speaker 4: through a QR code. It's all presented by our friends
Speaker 4: at Redbird Farms, Colorado, you at GMC Dealers and a
Speaker 4: So come see it's tomorrow corner of Colorado and Yale
Speaker 4: and Dave Fraser is going to be doing Weather Wednesday
Speaker 4: live from the broadcast tomorrow.
Speaker 5: We're really looking forward to it.
Speaker 4: It's one of my favorite things that we do every
Speaker 4: single year, and I hope it works. So I want
Speaker 4: to go through what I think is the biggest news
Speaker 4: story of the day, and that is that ground has
Speaker 4: been broken on a new travel convenience center and cell
Speaker 4: phone waiting lot at d I A Hey, Ron, I
Speaker 4: think they realize you don't the way, the real the
Speaker 4: fact that you don't realize how bad the cell phone lot,
Speaker 4: because you've never waited in a really good cell phone lot.
Speaker 7: I understand what you're saying. If we didn't already have one,
Speaker 7: I get it, But it's not worth a little move
Speaker 7: across the way.
Speaker 4: Yeah it is for me. No, And by the way,
Speaker 4: it's going to be much better this new travel convenience center, Anthony.
Speaker 4: It's not just a cell phone line, it's a travel
Speaker 4: convenience gas the current ones it right now, that's not
Speaker 4: enough for me.
Speaker 6: It is.
Speaker 4: It's going to have listen to this. Forty eight gas
Speaker 4: pumps under solar canopies, electric vehicle charging stations, a two store,
Speaker 4: a convenience store, a drive through coffee shop, a tunnel
Speaker 4: car wash, a dog park, and a conference room.
Speaker 6: Dog parks cool.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's going to have a bar and a lounge
Speaker 4: on the second floor of the rooftop deck. Okay, how
Speaker 4: about that there.
Speaker 6: You go, Well, you bury the lead.
Speaker 4: Well you didn't let me get to it before the place.
Speaker 6: It's not true. Earlier in the first hour, you buried
Speaker 6: the lead.
Speaker 4: I just mentioned it in passing. I was going to
Speaker 4: talk about it then. The travel centers on the rise
Speaker 4: kitchen will offer food options, and it will have a
Speaker 4: bar and lounge with a rooftop deck. It will also
Speaker 4: have complimentary wait, here's the best part, complimentary shuttle service
Speaker 4: to Jepson terminals.
Speaker 7: So bar there's literally nothing but driving that the people
Speaker 7: there will be doing.
Speaker 4: Sh that's because wait, listen, there's going to be a
Speaker 4: complimentary shuttle to the jets and terminals. So you could
Speaker 4: ostensibly go to the travel send with your friends, have
Speaker 4: a few cocktails at the rooftop bar to see them off,
Speaker 4: and then put them on the bus and let them
Speaker 4: go to the airport, just saying all.
Speaker 6: Right, now, what's the estimating place.
Speaker 4: The best part is is that it's finally on the
Speaker 4: right side of Payinia Boulevard, right. I don't mind the
Speaker 4: cell phone lot itself. I often wait there. I use
Speaker 4: the lovely restroom. Sometimes I get a pretzel, you know,
Speaker 4: they got a pretzel and a doughnut place in there.
Speaker 4: And it's fine, it's fine, but it's in the wrong place.
Speaker 4: It's such a pain to get out of that cell
Speaker 4: phone lot and go back to the terminal. That's why
Speaker 4: so many people park illegally on the side of the road,
Speaker 4: which drives me crazy. Maybe speaking of the Dia cell lot.
Speaker 4: Even when it's done, there will still be a line
Speaker 4: of cars with their flashers on, parked on the shoulder,
Speaker 4: a paini of boulevard inbound to the terminal and parked
Speaker 4: under signs every two hundred feet saying not to bark
Speaker 4: on the shoulder. As a ride chair driver, I regularly
Speaker 4: see this. I'm hoping that once we take this last
Speaker 4: excuse that they'll get serious. I mean, why if you
Speaker 4: are and is that Denver? Is that the city of
Speaker 4: Denver that patrols that supposed to patrol or is that Aurora.
Speaker 4: I don't know which whose cops I've seen out there,
Speaker 4: but my god, you guys, that is a cash cow.
Speaker 4: Just go and ticket all of those people every day
Speaker 4: until they'll stop.
Speaker 6: Mandy.
Speaker 4: Are there're gonna be shuttles for pickoff and drop.
Speaker 5: Off at the cell phone?
Speaker 4: Yeah, there's gonna be a free bus from the cell
Speaker 4: phone building to the terminal. So there you go, Mandy,
Speaker 4: not at all. At the corner of Colorado Boulevard and
Speaker 4: Yale Avenue, approximately five blocks east of that on Yale, No, what,
Speaker 4: there's not a what. I've been to this King Soupers
Speaker 4: many times. It's at the corner of Colorado and Yale.
Speaker 4: It's in that part of that big, huge plaza with
Speaker 4: the Marshalls and all the stuff. It's it's the anchor
Speaker 4: store of that big plase at Colorado and Yale.
Speaker 7: You're confusing me, Texter. I've been pet smart. Marshalls, Manney
Speaker 7: Bucky should have built there.
Speaker 4: Well, yeah, but they're trying to build south now, Mandy,
Speaker 4: Will it be a right turn and a right turn
Speaker 4: out to the terminal. No, it will just be a
Speaker 4: gentle here, get back on the ramp and go back
Speaker 4: to Payne Boulevard.
Speaker 5: You won't even have to do the right turn, right turn.
Speaker 5: It'll be even easier.
Speaker 4: Who needs a cell phone lot when DPD just lets
Speaker 4: you pull over on Painy and put your hazards on,
Speaker 4: So it is DPD, Okay, I mean, I just I
Speaker 4: feel like those tickets would just be like shooting fish
Speaker 4: in a barrel. This Texter. By the way, a rod
Speaker 4: somebody already responded to your post on X and he said,
Speaker 4: how about he first proofs is worth for a few
Speaker 4: years and then earns a nickname. If you're not impressed
Speaker 4: by nine and two, and if you're not impressed by
Speaker 4: the way that this Broncos team with Boonix leading the charge,
Speaker 4: has found a way to win nine games.
Speaker 7: Oh and they were ten and seven last year. Wins
Speaker 7: the playoff form first time in ten years.
Speaker 4: Wh yeah, yeah, yeah, anyway, got my lawn, Mandy, Will
Speaker 4: there be a Schlotsky's only reason to go to a
Speaker 4: cell phone?
Speaker 7: Lit?
Speaker 4: I do not like Schlatsky's. Chuck loves Schlotzky's. This is
Speaker 4: one of the rare areas in our marriage where we
Speaker 4: just do not agree.
Speaker 6: So do you not go? Or do you go? And
Speaker 6: just say I.
Speaker 4: Tell him, fine, go. Whenever we're in an airport, like
Speaker 4: when we go to an airport, even when we're with Q,
Speaker 4: it's like a free for all now because Q always
Speaker 4: wants Chick fil A. I don't want fast food, right,
Speaker 4: so I want something better, And then Chuck sometimes wants this,
Speaker 4: so we all just we all go.
Speaker 5: We go to wherever we want to get our food, and.
Speaker 4: If there's a Schlotski's, I tell Chuck, now's your chance,
Speaker 4: just go get yourself a sandwich and he does in
Speaker 4: one of the terminals.
Speaker 6: I never had it. You know, here's the thing.
Speaker 4: It's a sandwich shop. But they have different bread. Schlotzky's
Speaker 4: bread is what Schlotski's is all about. And I don't
Speaker 4: love their bread. I don't love the bread.
Speaker 6: Then you know all meats available?
Speaker 4: Uh, I don't know. I don't am Call Chuck and
Speaker 4: ask him about salami, or call him and ask him.
Speaker 4: He won't know about Sammy. He doesn't need tom. Of
Speaker 4: course they have turkey. Everybody has turkey. Yep. Man, If
Speaker 4: there's free shuttles, does that mean free parking and people
Speaker 4: will stay there for days to avoid paying for parking
Speaker 4: at the airport. That is a fine, fine question and
Speaker 4: a legit question that somebody needs to answer, because I'm
Speaker 4: not saying I we do it, but I mean it's
Speaker 4: not a bad idea in the grand scheme of things, Anthony,
Speaker 4: Have you created your list for our our gifts that
Speaker 4: we love for twenty twenty five? Of course, blog, I
Speaker 4: need you to send them to me because I'm gonna create.
Speaker 4: Oh you have not.
Speaker 5: No, I got a list.
Speaker 4: Oh I know I got a list.
Speaker 6: I just say, did no.
Speaker 7: No.
Speaker 4: You were supposed to do electronics. You were supposed to
Speaker 4: do tech. Okay, I got nothing for that because tech
Speaker 4: for me, it's like I had to order a new
Speaker 4: cell phone.
Speaker 5: Oh I didn't tell you this saga.
Speaker 4: So my daughter who has had a cell phone, she
Speaker 4: got a cell phone when she was thirteen. She is
Speaker 4: now six teen and a half, and she has never
Speaker 4: broken or lost in any way a cell phone. Ever,
Speaker 4: she has never had any problems until last week. She
Speaker 4: took aheader her phone, took aheader with her, and the
Speaker 4: phone phone screen cracked. She took a what I had her,
Speaker 4: she fell down, took aheader and broke her phone. And
Speaker 4: she comes and goes, oh, I broke my phone. I
Speaker 4: was like, okay. So I go and I go to
Speaker 4: look to file and insurance claim and we're all eligible
Speaker 4: for new phones for free. So we get the new
Speaker 4: phones and I order everything. And my first thing is
Speaker 4: I'm getting a new phone. I should be excited. I'm
Speaker 4: filled with dread because now it's gonna be like, oh God,
Speaker 4: what fresh hell do I have to learn about this phone?
Speaker 4: And then like three years from now, I'm gonna still
Speaker 4: be trying to learn stuff about my phone and not
Speaker 4: know how to use my phone. This is where I
Speaker 4: am in life right now.
Speaker 7: You wouldn't have those problems if you were on the
Speaker 7: right side of it with iPhone.
Speaker 4: Oh god, that's even worse. Somebody said, well, this run
Speaker 4: over costs wise like everything at DIA. No, because it's
Speaker 4: being built by a private company. Yeah, it'll be on
Speaker 4: schedule and on budget. There you go. This texter couldn't
Speaker 4: agree with you more, Mandy, say no to iPhones? Lol.
Speaker 6: Okay, everyone can be wrong, Mandy.
Speaker 4: How much taller is the que than you? She is
Speaker 4: not taller than I am. She is like half an
Speaker 4: inch shorter than I am, and she stopped growing a
Speaker 4: lot of people giving schlot Skis a lot of love
Speaker 4: and rod. Apparently there's one at a Rappah and I
Speaker 4: twenty five if you'd like to give it the old tryout.
Speaker 6: Well more intrigued the DA So I'm gonna be there,
Speaker 6: well in the where the.
Speaker 4: Cell phone line is currently you know that, you know
Speaker 4: the where all the restaurants are inside.
Speaker 5: Apparently there's one there as well.
Speaker 4: So there you go.
Speaker 5: You can try out the schlot Skis and then find out.
Speaker 4: What Blimpi's versus Shlatsky's Blimpy's one hundred percent. The Blimpe's
Speaker 4: meatball sub still my favorite meatball sub from a chain restaurant,
Speaker 4: like that chain sub. There are better meatball subs, mind you,
Speaker 4: and like mom and pop sandwich shops, but as far
Speaker 4: as the chain sub meatball subs go, Blimpie's is number one.
Speaker 6: Meatball subs still good, and I haven't had one like
Speaker 6: a decade.
Speaker 4: I still But here's the problem with meatball subs, Like
Speaker 4: you enjoy it while you're eating it, and then each
Speaker 4: meatball just sits in your stomach like a gut bomb.
Speaker 4: After that, you're like, oh, I should not have eaten that.
Speaker 4: And I would always go to Blimpey's and get like like, hey,
Speaker 4: give me a large and I'll put half away for
Speaker 4: when I get you know, like, do you really think
Speaker 4: that ever happened? No, that was when I used to
Speaker 4: eat a lot more than I do now and thinking
Speaker 4: about eating a whole meatball suddenly, Oh no, what do
Speaker 4: you get on a sub when you sandwich it up?
Speaker 6: What do you do if it's meat sub?
Speaker 4: Yeah, like straight regular lunch meat kind of sandwich.
Speaker 6: What are you doing turkey ham?
Speaker 4: You're not doing like the Italian where you get the
Speaker 4: salami and the pepperoni and.
Speaker 7: Play that stuff. You put pepperoni on the meatball. Sob oh, now,
Speaker 7: that is clever.
Speaker 1: Good.
Speaker 4: That is clever.
Speaker 6: I've never thought about that. Turkey and Ham always.
Speaker 4: Mandy Schlotzky's blimpy like a dead horse. Schlotsky's is the best.
Speaker 4: Mandy beets. No, I'm just saying, Mandy. I'm also fifty
Speaker 4: six and dream learning a new phone. I've had my
Speaker 4: awesome Samsung S twenty since twenty twenty that it finally
Speaker 4: won't keep a charge throughout the day. What kind of
Speaker 4: phone did you get? I'm gonna tell you, I got
Speaker 4: a Google Pixel and I love it. It's probably my
Speaker 4: favorite phone I've ever had since my BlackBerry. You didn't
Speaker 4: have a phone during the blackberryry. You have to understand,
Speaker 4: like when BlackBerry came out and you had the ability
Speaker 4: to actually type yes instead of going five fi five
Speaker 4: six six five five six and back and forth, it
Speaker 4: was horrible BlackBerry. All of a sudden, it was like,
Speaker 4: oh my god, I've.
Speaker 6: Had the type like that. I'm not that young.
Speaker 7: By the way, Sandwich moment for Jersey Mikes, Oh really
Speaker 7: really good.
Speaker 4: I don't mind Jersey Mikes. I don't mind Jersey Mikes.
Speaker 4: My favorite, if I'm honest, is Firehouse. I love Firehouse
Speaker 4: and then I love the tuna sub at Subway. I
Speaker 4: get the tuna sub it Someway all the time. Love it, Mandy.
Speaker 4: If you're you're seriously check out Yampa Sandwich Company. They
Speaker 4: have incredible sandwiches. I don't really eat a lot of
Speaker 4: sandwiches anymore.
Speaker 6: I don't eat a lot of bread, homemade or not
Speaker 6: at all.
Speaker 4: I just I don't eat a lot of things. I
Speaker 4: buy my family lunch meat, and it sits in the
Speaker 4: drawer and rots so much that I'm like, I'm not
Speaker 4: buying lunch meat ever again, unless you are making a
Speaker 4: sandwich with it as soon as I walk in the door.
Speaker 4: Because it's expensive lunch meat, isn't she waste? Not want not? Anyway,
Speaker 4: when we get back, who had Nicki Minaj addresses the
Speaker 4: un on their bingo card if so Winter Winter Chicken Dinner,
Speaker 4: there's no clear winner for the sub aro. Do you
Speaker 4: know what we need to do? We need to do
Speaker 4: a bracket, a bracket like like one day we should
Speaker 4: bring in because a lot of people are recommending Snarfs,
Speaker 4: which is a relative, relatively new player in the market.
Speaker 4: I haven't tried them yet, but Snarf's is on here.
Speaker 4: Jersey Mike's, Capriotti's, Schlotskis, and even some love for Subway
Speaker 4: and Jimmy John's. I don't love Jimmy John's because they
Speaker 4: don't have everything that I like on a samwich. Jimmy Johns,
Speaker 4: I don't hate them, but I find their toppings.
Speaker 7: Lacking best and one of the only unwitches in the
Speaker 7: bids would yes elite on which like it's so well
Speaker 7: formed it doesn't fall apart, so good.
Speaker 4: Should we do a sandwich bracket and then like.
Speaker 7: Every sandwich places or specific sandwiches from those places, we
Speaker 7: have to do.
Speaker 4: The same sandwiches to con bear apples tapples?
Speaker 6: Yes, do you know? Just place? Then?
Speaker 4: So just the places, we would have to do this
Speaker 4: one against this one, and we could just you know,
Speaker 4: and pop Belly. A lot of people recommend it. I
Speaker 4: love pop Belly, but they're not there's not one kind
Speaker 4: of They're out of sight for me, so I don't
Speaker 4: think about them. I don't necessarily drive by it. But
Speaker 4: you guys, you got strong feelings. Okay, if you did
Speaker 4: not have Nicki Minaj speaking to the un on your
Speaker 4: Bingo card, you're just not paying attention. The rapper was
Speaker 4: invited by the ambassador, the US Ambassador to the United Nations,
Speaker 4: Mike Walls, after she co signed Trump's social media statements
Speaker 4: about Nigeria earlier this month. Nigeria is a disaster right now.
Speaker 4: I mean, as I hate to say it, Nigeria is
Speaker 4: not safe. A lot of people are being murdered by
Speaker 4: Islamist extremists, Christians, Muslims, they're all being slaughtered by these Islamists.
Speaker 4: And a lot has been made out of the Christian
Speaker 4: murders happening in Nigeria, and it's being used as an
Speaker 4: example of Muslim intolerance, and it is. But they're intolerant
Speaker 4: for everyone who doesn't think like they are. So Mandy,
Speaker 4: I can't the wine Yogi bringing in strong Mandy, I
Speaker 4: can't believe you haven't mentioned publics. We can't get publics here,
Speaker 4: win Yogi, and you know it, don't you tease me,
Speaker 4: lady anyway. So, for some reason, Mike Walls, the US
Speaker 4: Ambassador to the United Nations, then reached out to Nicki
Speaker 4: Minaj and said, hey, would you come and speak to
Speaker 4: the United Nations about this? And she did. She did
Speaker 4: it today. She not only thanked Donald Trump for making
Speaker 4: this entire thing possible. She did kind of point out
Speaker 4: that she was not taking sides, she was just there
Speaker 4: to talk about Christians being murdered in Nigeria. She also
Speaker 4: thanked her adoring Barb's fan base for being her pillar
Speaker 4: rock and everything in between. So Nicki Minaj speaking to
Speaker 4: the UN. But that's not even the weirdest thing that
Speaker 4: happened at the UN on yesterday. The UN actually approved
Speaker 4: a US plan for Gaza. This is the twenty point
Speaker 4: plan put forth by the Trump administration. Now, the ceasefire
Speaker 4: in Israel, the we'll just call it. We're gonna call
Speaker 4: it a pie crust ceasefire because it's easily broken. It
Speaker 4: has been very tenuous, but it's holding. It's like you know,
Speaker 4: Israel says I massible killed some soldiers, They're gonna blow
Speaker 4: some stuff up and it's just but it's holding. And
Speaker 4: this new plan would help rebuild Gaza. So what exactly
Speaker 4: are we looking at in this piece plan, Well, it's
Speaker 4: kind of a roadmap. And mister Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu
Speaker 4: said that this roadmap is looking for a long sustainable,
Speaker 4: long term piece. It actually creates an organization to govern
Speaker 4: Gaza that would be headed by Donald Trump. And the
Speaker 4: Plan says during the time of the ceasefire that both
Speaker 4: Israel and Amas will withdraw, well, Israel will withdraw from
Speaker 4: the Gaza strip to an agreed uponline. They have done
Speaker 4: that within seventy two hours of Israel accepting the deal
Speaker 4: which mister Netanyahu did. Hamas was supposed to free all
Speaker 4: the remaining hostages. Some fifty hostages are still in Gaza,
Speaker 4: less than half are alive. That happened, except Hamas still
Speaker 4: has not released.
Speaker 5: The bodies of the hostages.
Speaker 4: Now the notion that they don't know where the bodies
Speaker 4: are has kind of been called into question, let's say,
Speaker 4: by video that was released of Hamas burying a body
Speaker 4: and then pretending to find it under the watch of
Speaker 4: the Red Cross observers. I mean it was, it was
Speaker 4: Hamas wood it was. It was complete, completely fabricated. But
Speaker 4: those bodies still have not been returned. In exchange, Israel
Speaker 4: released ind A ton two hundred and fifty Palestinian serving
Speaker 4: life sentences, seventeen hundred other Gosins who were detained following
Speaker 4: the start of the war, and the Plan calls for
Speaker 4: the remains of fifteen deceased Gosins to be returned for
Speaker 4: every one deceased hostages, except I mean the notion that
Speaker 4: caring for the dead it doesn't matter as much to
Speaker 4: the people in Gaza other than the families of the
Speaker 4: people were talking about it certainly doesn't matter to how'mas
Speaker 4: they don't care about that. The plan calls for Gaza
Speaker 4: to be demilitarized under the supervision of independence monitors, with
Speaker 4: any weapons, factories and tunnels destroyed and weapons decommissioned, meaning
Speaker 4: they will also be destroyed. The planned state's full aid
Speaker 4: will be immediately sent to Gaza, which we know that
Speaker 4: the aid has flowed, although Israel has been criticized for
Speaker 4: the amount of aid that has been flowing. But you
Speaker 4: notice the stories about gazen starving stopped immediately, mostly because
Speaker 4: unfortunately for those who were running the gosens are starving.
Speaker 4: People in Gaza immediately started releasing commercials for their restaurants
Speaker 4: that were back up and running now. The proposal also
Speaker 4: floats convening a quote panel of experts that could drop
Speaker 4: economic redevelopment plans for Gaza strip. It states that Gaza
Speaker 4: would exist in a special economic zone with preferred tariff
Speaker 4: and access rates. Gaza will not be led by Hamas.
Speaker 4: It will be led by what they call a technocratic
Speaker 4: group and stabilization force. What does that even mean We
Speaker 4: don't know, except they will be responsible for delivering the
Speaker 4: day to day running of public services and municipalities for
Speaker 4: the people of Gaza. We don't know who's gonna be
Speaker 4: in that committee, but it would be composed of qualified
Speaker 4: Palestinians and international experts. All of this is gonna be
Speaker 4: overseen by a Board of Peace chaired by Donald Trump.
Speaker 4: Now the UN has backed this plan. Russia was the
Speaker 4: wild card. Nobody knew if Russia was gonna say, eh,
Speaker 4: you know, don't do it. We're gonna use a veto
Speaker 4: China abstain, and that means they got a thirteen oh
Speaker 4: vote to affirm this plan and hopefully, uh, you know,
Speaker 4: we are like two generations of Palestinians away from real
Speaker 4: peace with Israel, no matter what we do. For the
Speaker 4: Palestinians were too because they have been so brainwashed since
Speaker 4: birth to hate Israelis, and not just to hate them,
Speaker 4: but to hate them and want them dead, and to
Speaker 4: actively be told that killing in Israeli jew is hot
Speaker 4: is something to aspire to. They put their little children
Speaker 4: in fake bomb belts for their kindergarten classes. I mean,
Speaker 4: come on, so hopefully this is the beginning of some
Speaker 4: kind of peaceful resolution. I don't know, Mandy. The pastrami
Speaker 4: sandwich from the Carnegie Deli in New York City the
Speaker 4: only reason I'll ever set foot in New York again.
Speaker 4: I got to tell you my New York Deli story.
Speaker 4: Since you brought it up, I can't tell you exactly
Speaker 4: what happened. So I was a flight attendant and I
Speaker 4: had never been to New York City before. I flew
Speaker 4: on a commercial airline to go for my interview with
Speaker 4: Delta Airlines to become a flight attendant. I had never
Speaker 4: been on a commercial airline ever. So I get the
Speaker 4: job and I find out I have a long layover
Speaker 4: in New York City, and I am so excited. I
Speaker 4: am beyond excited. So I get on my crew. I'm
Speaker 4: a reserve flight attendant, so I don't know the people
Speaker 4: I'm flying with, and they are like older women who
Speaker 4: in the business are called slam clickers. Slam Clickers go
Speaker 4: on a layover and they go to their hotel room
Speaker 4: slam click and you don't see him again until they
Speaker 4: come down to check in. The next day slam clickers.
Speaker 4: They suck anyway, I am by myself. Neither is the
Speaker 4: flight attendant. I'm flying with one or to go anywhere.
Speaker 5: And I go down to the.
Speaker 4: Lobby bar, because that's where you get all your good intel.
Speaker 4: From the lobby bar bartender. They always have the best intel.
Speaker 4: And I say to this bartender, who is mister stereotypical
Speaker 4: New York right, he's slick back, Harry's got the Italian
Speaker 4: horn necklace. He is a New Yorker. And I said, look,
Speaker 4: here's what I want to do. Can you tell me
Speaker 4: how to ride the subway so I can go do
Speaker 4: these things? So this is before the Internet. So we
Speaker 4: whips out a legal pad from behind the bar and
Speaker 4: dude writes out literal instructions where I go to catch
Speaker 4: the subway, which train I go, because the first place
Speaker 4: I wanted at first, I said, I want to go.
Speaker 5: I want to go to a real deli.
Speaker 4: So he sends me to Kats's Deli, which is the
Speaker 4: other really famous Carnegie's one, Kats This is the other.
Speaker 4: He sends me to kats Is Deli. And then I said, look,
Speaker 4: I really want to go to see the Brooklyn Bridge.
Speaker 4: I want to go to Chinatown. I want to do
Speaker 4: these things. Dude writes out like a whole page of
Speaker 4: instructions for me to go sightseeing in New York by myself.
Speaker 4: It's like ten o'clock in the morning. Okay, she writes
Speaker 4: all this stuff out, and off I go. First place,
Speaker 4: I go kats Is Delhi. I order my I sit
Speaker 4: at the I sit at the counter. I order myself
Speaker 4: a Cornby sandwich pastrami sandwich. And the guy brings the
Speaker 4: sandwich and if you've ever seen these sandwiches online, hey, Rod,
Speaker 4: the meat's like that high. I mean, it's a solid
Speaker 4: six inches of shaved pastrami. And he drops it in
Speaker 4: front of me and he turns around to walk away,
Speaker 4: and I kind of mutter to myself under my breath.
Speaker 4: I was like, God, how am I supposed to eat
Speaker 4: this thing? And he's walking away, does not even turn
Speaker 4: his head. He goes, you put it in your f
Speaker 4: and mouth and chew.
Speaker 6: Ohly.
Speaker 4: He didn't say ethan, And I was so. I was like, oh,
Speaker 4: I just had the best New New York experience and.
Speaker 5: The whole day was just fantastic.
Speaker 4: Fast forward. I get back to the hotel. It's like
Speaker 4: eight o'clock at night at the bar. The bartender and
Speaker 4: his wife are sitting at the bar. I walk in.
Speaker 4: He goes, I've been so worried about you. I didn't
Speaker 4: think you'd be gone this long. He made his wife
Speaker 4: wait until I came back in the hotel to make
Speaker 4: sure I was okay, and she was like, can't wait.
Speaker 6: Go now.
Speaker 4: It was so fantastic.
Speaker 7: It sounds great. But what time was the flight, because
Speaker 7: why did you get back at eight o'clock?
Speaker 4: The flight was in the morning, we landed, we flew Okay,
Speaker 4: so it was a three day trip. You didn't go
Speaker 4: party it up in New York City at night, not
Speaker 4: by myself on my first trip to New York City. No,
Speaker 4: I'm not going to do that. I had the best
Speaker 4: day ever. I walked all over that city. I loved it.
Speaker 4: It was such a great day, just such a great day.
Speaker 4: And that started it. Anyway, Mandy, will you give me
Speaker 4: words to encourage my daughter to become a flight attendant.
Speaker 4: Here's the words to encourage your daughter to become a
Speaker 4: flight attendant. I dropped out of college to become a
Speaker 4: flight attendant, and I regret nothing. You know why, because
Speaker 4: I learned more in the five years that I traveled
Speaker 4: the world and saw different cultures and met people from
Speaker 4: all over the planet. On those airplanes, I had conversations
Speaker 4: with people from parts of the world I had never
Speaker 4: heard of before. I went to places that I could
Speaker 4: not wait to go back to again. I went to
Speaker 4: cities I never want to set foot in again. It
Speaker 4: was the best life experience I could have possibly given myself.
Speaker 4: You see the world on someone else's dime, only no
Speaker 4: one's ever shooting you, right, I mean, when you join
Speaker 4: the military, you get to see the world on someone
Speaker 4: else's dime, but somebody could be shooting you at any point.
Speaker 6: Best place you ever went in, the worst place you
Speaker 6: ever went.
Speaker 4: Okay, there's a couple of caveats, because, like I went
Speaker 4: to Montreal, Canada twice and hated it both times because
Speaker 4: people in Montreal are so freaking rude. The French speaking
Speaker 4: Cans are, honest to god, the rudest people I have met.
Speaker 5: On this planet.
Speaker 4: On this planet, but I've heard it's lovely and I'd
Speaker 4: like to go back and give them another try and
Speaker 4: see if they're any better. But that, in any case,
Speaker 4: worst experience I had. I got stuck in Detroit for
Speaker 4: five days in a snowstorm with no luggage, like, no
Speaker 4: just my uniform because we were supposed to do a
Speaker 4: turnaround from Orlando and then got stuck in Detroit. That
Speaker 4: was pretty miserable. And then some of the best places
Speaker 4: I've gone. I mean, we used to do a three
Speaker 4: day layover in Germany where we flew from Orlando to Germany,
Speaker 4: but there wasn't another flight back right away, so we
Speaker 4: laid over for three days, so we got to go everywhere.
Speaker 4: I went all over Germany on the train. That was spectacular,
Speaker 4: absolutely spectacular. But you know there are places I went.
Speaker 4: Great Falls, Montana, I'm looking at you. I love the
Speaker 4: fact that I went there because I got to go
Speaker 4: to the Sip and Dip. It's a tiki bar underneath
Speaker 4: the hotel in Great Falls, Montana. Completely unexpected and delightful.
Speaker 4: So things like that. I would have never gone to
Speaker 4: Great Falls, Montana in my life, but now I've been.
Speaker 4: I highly recommend it. If kid is coming out of college,
Speaker 4: you're not going to make any money. I mean, you
Speaker 4: have to understand that you're not going to make any money.
Speaker 4: It does not pay well. What I met people on
Speaker 4: the airplane that I went and stayed with them at
Speaker 4: their houses because they invited me. And I mean, hold on,
Speaker 4: hold on, you want an example, and I'm stop right there.
Speaker 7: You wouldn't go partying in New York City by yourself,
Speaker 7: but you would stay at the houses of random people
Speaker 7: you met on the plane.
Speaker 4: But I would just make I would go with someone
Speaker 4: and I was staying at their house.
Speaker 6: Understand the logic issue.
Speaker 4: I'm just saying, Okay, it just felt it was a
Speaker 4: different time, you know.
Speaker 6: Was like hold on.
Speaker 4: For instance, I met a lovely couple from Calgary, Canada,
Speaker 4: and the Calgary Stampede was is as still a massive
Speaker 4: rodeo and a big party, and they said, look, we've
Speaker 4: got a small guest house. Do you want to stay
Speaker 4: in the guest house for the Stampede. I was like,
Speaker 4: that would be fantastic. A ron, Wait, it gets better.
Speaker 4: So I get a friend of mine and I'm like, okay,
Speaker 4: we're gonna go and we're gonna stay in their guest
Speaker 4: house for the Calgary Stampede. They got us tickets to
Speaker 4: the Calgary Stampede, so I got to go to the rodeo,
Speaker 4: which was awesome. So we get there, we go to
Speaker 4: their house, Their guest house is nicer than my house now.
Speaker 4: It's like three bedroom, four and a half bath. It
Speaker 4: is absolutely stunning, the nicest house I've ever been in.
Speaker 4: We stayed in their guest house. Their main house was
Speaker 4: so far away from the guest house that I never
Speaker 4: saw it. I never saw it. They took us out
Speaker 4: to dinner one night for dinner, and that was it.
Speaker 4: And we stayed there for four days and went to
Speaker 4: the rodeo and it was spectacular. Nothing bad happened. I
Speaker 4: didn't die. That's fine.
Speaker 6: Okay, yep, don't give.
Speaker 4: Montreal another chance. They are still rude and it sucks.
Speaker 4: And the body odor there, guys, geez, Louise, get some
Speaker 4: loomy put it in pets. I'm talking about the body
Speaker 4: odor in Montreal, Canada, right right. Ryan Edwards walks in.
Speaker 4: I say I'm talking about that. He goes, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 4: The bo in Montreal have of course, as one does.
Speaker 6: It's fine.
Speaker 4: Well, you know, in Montreal it's really annoying because like
Speaker 4: you'll be in a store and you'll hear the clerk
Speaker 4: speaking English and then you'll ask them a question and
Speaker 4: they'll go and you're like, look, jerk, I just freaking
Speaker 4: heard you talking about something yet like in English.
Speaker 5: That was my experience. I just didn't like it.
Speaker 6: The fresh the French don't like is can fresh.
Speaker 4: Canadian people in France are not nearly that annoying in Paris.
Speaker 4: They are in France. Okay, France, They're lovely.
Speaker 9: I've been to Paris. So in Paris fine, I mean
Speaker 9: there's a lot of arrogant mandy.
Speaker 4: The couples that brought you home were trying to ban you, well,
Speaker 4: none of them did. And that particularly I found out
Speaker 4: after that when when I got to Canada that a
Speaker 4: guy you owned a bank in Canada. That's what I mean.
Speaker 5: They had so much money I was talking about.
Speaker 4: When I was a flight attend I'd meet people on
Speaker 4: the airplane, go stay at their houses.
Speaker 7: Yeah, and yet you wouldn't go out in New York
Speaker 7: City by yourself, but you would do that.
Speaker 4: Take someone with me when I go back and see.
Speaker 7: Totally safety procedures a little out of whack there, are you?
Speaker 6: Yeah? Your answer is yes, you're still here with us.
Speaker 4: Yes, it was fine. The only who did it? Did
Speaker 4: you not watch silence of the layups? It wasn't out yet.
Speaker 4: Thanks for that, And of course well, you have to
Speaker 4: understand that. I would also like make them send me
Speaker 4: a copy of their driver's license, things of that nature.
Speaker 6: There would things I don't know.
Speaker 4: Yeah, right, we came up with a name for Boe
Speaker 4: next today.
