I talked to a part owner yesterday. 152 00:06:26.199 --> 00:06:28.959 Is that the Kia one? Yeah, kias rap a ho Kia. 153 00:06:29.040 --> 00:06:30.839 He was a really nice guy, seemed he told me 154 00:06:30.839 --> 00:06:32.240 he was going to look into it and get back 155 00:06:32.279 --> 00:06:35.439 to me. But we got two different stories. So story 156 00:06:35.439 --> 00:06:38.800 one is from the caller. The caller says, this I 157 00:06:38.839 --> 00:06:41.800 brought in my twenty thirteen Kiev. I think it's a 158 00:06:41.879 --> 00:06:45.399 Forte or something and it needs a transmission. 159 00:06:46.000 --> 00:06:46.959 So they brought it in. 160 00:06:47.040 --> 00:06:49.000 I had to pay fifteen hundred bucks for them to 161 00:06:49.160 --> 00:06:53.000 order the transmission, kind of down payment, and the transmission 162 00:06:53.040 --> 00:06:53.319 came in. 163 00:06:53.399 --> 00:06:54.959 They put it in and it didn't work. 164 00:06:55.839 --> 00:07:01.240 They said, there's also a problem with the PCU ECU TCM. 165 00:07:01.680 --> 00:07:03.319 There's also a problem with a computer. 166 00:07:04.279 --> 00:07:07.199 So they sent him a text apparently, and it says, okay, 167 00:07:07.240 --> 00:07:11.439 you need a computer, and he says, okay, I guess. 168 00:07:11.519 --> 00:07:13.720 So he was upset at this point. 169 00:07:14.000 --> 00:07:17.040 They sold him a transmission and now that he didn't 170 00:07:17.040 --> 00:07:19.120 need and now they're going to be selling this but 171 00:07:19.279 --> 00:07:22.519 whatever for the time being. So they get that in 172 00:07:22.759 --> 00:07:23.639 and it doesn't work. 173 00:07:24.000 --> 00:07:24.399 Oops. 174 00:07:24.480 --> 00:07:27.319 Yeah, so now we have you know, strike too. So 175 00:07:27.639 --> 00:07:29.920 I end up taking his call and I meet him 176 00:07:29.959 --> 00:07:30.639 after the show. 177 00:07:30.720 --> 00:07:32.879 I think it was on a Friday. I remember, oh, 178 00:07:32.920 --> 00:07:34.399 you were here probably, yeah, of course. 179 00:07:34.720 --> 00:07:36.399 So I go down to a wrap hokey and I 180 00:07:36.480 --> 00:07:38.879 meet the guy and I talked to the sales manager 181 00:07:39.000 --> 00:07:42.319 or not sales manager, the service writers. So I'm talking 182 00:07:42.319 --> 00:07:44.879 to his service writer and he's like, well, we put 183 00:07:44.879 --> 00:07:47.519 a transmission in and it did need it, but it 184 00:07:47.639 --> 00:07:50.480 still needed something else, and so we sold him this. 185 00:07:50.560 --> 00:07:52.439 They said, wait a minute, but now neither of them 186 00:07:52.439 --> 00:07:54.680 are working. So what are you going to do next? 187 00:07:54.720 --> 00:07:57.560 So he tells me face to face. I'm right there 188 00:07:57.560 --> 00:08:00.000 at the counter. He tells me this. He goes, we're 189 00:08:00.040 --> 00:08:03.199 putting in a ticket with Kia, and we're kind of 190 00:08:03.240 --> 00:08:05.720 stuck on it. We're putting a I think they called 191 00:08:05.720 --> 00:08:08.839 an engineering ticket, and we're putting that in, and then 192 00:08:08.879 --> 00:08:10.720 he shows it to me on the guy's work order. 193 00:08:10.759 --> 00:08:13.839 Here's his ticket. We're waiting for them to get back. So, 194 00:08:14.120 --> 00:08:16.839 like I mean, a long period of time goes by. Meantime, 195 00:08:16.839 --> 00:08:19.079 this guy hasn't had his car for probably six weeks 196 00:08:19.079 --> 00:08:23.120 two months at this point so he gets a call 197 00:08:23.480 --> 00:08:27.000 and they say, well, that first transmission we put in 198 00:08:27.360 --> 00:08:32.919 wasn't good, so we ended up putting ordering in a 199 00:08:32.960 --> 00:08:36.519 different rebuilt and putting that in and that one works. 200 00:08:36.519 --> 00:08:38.120 So the car is ready to go. You can come 201 00:08:38.159 --> 00:08:40.720 get it. But the problem was on the ticket. They 202 00:08:40.759 --> 00:08:43.399 still had the TCM, which they shouldn't have wish that 203 00:08:43.519 --> 00:08:45.840 I don't think was needed. I'm going, why would you 204 00:08:45.960 --> 00:08:48.200 charge him for this? So they charged him thirteen hundred 205 00:08:48.240 --> 00:08:52.080 bucks for that. Originally the transmission installed was thirty two hundred, 206 00:08:52.360 --> 00:08:55.039 you know, plus tax shop supplies, so it's like thirty 207 00:08:55.039 --> 00:08:57.320 five hundred. But his bill now is like forty five 208 00:08:57.399 --> 00:09:01.120 hundred because of this TCM in two months three months. 209 00:09:01.639 --> 00:09:06.159 So it's been three months now. So I finally get 210 00:09:06.159 --> 00:09:08.799 through to the right people, and honestly, the service manager 211 00:09:08.840 --> 00:09:11.159 over at a rap ho Key, I left multiple messages, 212 00:09:11.360 --> 00:09:14.000 not one callback. So I pulled out to Big Guns. 213 00:09:14.000 --> 00:09:16.720 I've been to the Rockies game and literally sat next 214 00:09:16.759 --> 00:09:19.519 to Doug Dealan. Doug owns it, and then he brings 215 00:09:19.559 --> 00:09:22.360 in managing partners that own a piece of it. And 216 00:09:22.399 --> 00:09:24.600 that's the guy that called me yesterday. I'm not gonna 217 00:09:24.600 --> 00:09:27.480 bug Doug over something kind of silly like this. All 218 00:09:27.519 --> 00:09:30.399 I want is to understand why they're charging for this. 219 00:09:30.799 --> 00:09:34.360 So this guy tells me yesterday and I don't know 220 00:09:34.399 --> 00:09:37.000 which is true, but he tells me. The way those 221 00:09:37.039 --> 00:09:40.879 events went down are different than what the guy's telling you. 222 00:09:41.279 --> 00:09:43.840 So after this break, I'm going to tell you what 223 00:09:43.919 --> 00:09:47.320 the the operating partner of a rap ho key you 224 00:09:47.399 --> 00:09:48.159 had to say. 225 00:09:53.320 --> 00:09:56.600 Go with a sure thing Denver's Best roofer Excel Roofing 226 00:09:56.679 --> 00:09:59.320 dot com.

I just actually opened the show 236 00:10:44.879 --> 00:10:46.840 for the last twenty seconds, but no one heard me. 237 00:10:47.080 --> 00:10:51.080 Three oh three seven one three eight two five five. 238 00:10:51.720 --> 00:10:54.000 Any questions you have anything you want to talk about 239 00:10:54.000 --> 00:10:57.360 we'd love to hear from you.

I want to finish up 242 00:11:02.679 --> 00:11:07.919 my story on this Kevin. And so after this guy 243 00:11:08.039 --> 00:11:09.480 drops it off three months. 244 00:11:09.320 --> 00:11:10.320 Later he picks it up. 245 00:11:10.720 --> 00:11:13.399 It appears as if they're charging him for a computer 246 00:11:13.480 --> 00:11:16.320 he doesn't know. So I finally get in touch with somebody, 247 00:11:16.360 --> 00:11:19.440 no offense to the operations of that store. 248 00:11:19.480 --> 00:11:21.759 I was very glad to hear from the managing partner. 249 00:11:21.840 --> 00:11:25.240 But my god, when you leave that many messages and 250 00:11:25.320 --> 00:11:27.240 we're not on the air, so folks don't think we're 251 00:11:27.240 --> 00:11:29.200 calling up on the air going come on, you know, 252 00:11:29.320 --> 00:11:30.080 I'm just leaving. 253 00:11:30.120 --> 00:11:31.799 Hey, I'm trying to help this guy out. Can you 254 00:11:31.879 --> 00:11:32.559 give me a callback? 255 00:11:32.600 --> 00:11:35.759 So I understand this, And remember I was literally there, 256 00:11:36.399 --> 00:11:39.879 literally there in front of the service writer when the 257 00:11:39.919 --> 00:11:43.559 service writer was telling these was telling this guy he 258 00:11:43.679 --> 00:11:46.759 needed the computer, and they put it in and it 259 00:11:46.799 --> 00:11:48.480 still doesn't work, and they were going to put a 260 00:11:48.519 --> 00:11:52.240 ticket down. So ultimately, yesterday I talked to the managing partner. 261 00:11:52.919 --> 00:11:56.360 Here's what he tells me. He says, well, my understanding 262 00:11:56.399 --> 00:12:01.879 of it is this, we put in the transmission and 263 00:12:02.679 --> 00:12:04.960 his other one he did need a transmission, but we 264 00:12:05.000 --> 00:12:08.720 put in the transmission and we still needed to do 265 00:12:08.759 --> 00:12:12.919 the TCM. So TCU TCM. I'll never forget what is. 266 00:12:13.240 --> 00:12:15.919 TCM Transmission control model? 267 00:12:16.039 --> 00:12:19.000 Now I'll remember TCM. So, but listen to this man. 268 00:12:19.639 --> 00:12:22.360 He tells me they put it in and the reason 269 00:12:22.600 --> 00:12:25.440 they needed a TCM and a transmission. Now, this is 270 00:12:25.440 --> 00:12:29.000 only according to a tech or. I don't know who 271 00:12:29.039 --> 00:12:30.679 told him this, but it's not him. He's not a 272 00:12:30.759 --> 00:12:35.000 tech sure, and he basically said I was told it 273 00:12:35.039 --> 00:12:39.360 needed both because the TCM ruined the transmission because it 274 00:12:39.440 --> 00:12:42.919 was bad, or maybe it was that the transmission ruined 275 00:12:42.960 --> 00:12:47.000 the TCM. So when Jeff Vick comes in, I'm very curious, 276 00:12:47.600 --> 00:12:50.000 can a or maybe you. 277 00:12:49.960 --> 00:12:51.399 Know, can a computer. 278 00:12:51.799 --> 00:12:55.320 I would think the computer could ruin the transmission, for example, 279 00:12:56.039 --> 00:12:58.600 not shifting right, telling it to go into third gear 280 00:12:59.120 --> 00:13:01.080 when it's in fifth and jumping forth. 281 00:13:01.159 --> 00:13:02.600 But I don't even know if that's possible. 282 00:13:02.600 --> 00:13:04.639 Sure, and that's all programming, but I mean, it would 283 00:13:04.679 --> 00:13:07.360 have to be some sort of a direct short in 284 00:13:07.440 --> 00:13:11.320 the transmission that would electrically fry a component in the computer. 285 00:13:11.519 --> 00:13:14.600 So the transmission. So this is what I got to ask, Jeff. 286 00:13:14.639 --> 00:13:16.639 If we look at the two old things, which I 287 00:13:16.639 --> 00:13:19.279 don't even know sure, First of all, it's impossible, and 288 00:13:19.320 --> 00:13:22.360 I'll tell you why. Because the original transmission we're three 289 00:13:22.399 --> 00:13:25.879 deep now. The original transmission has already been Cord, there's 290 00:13:26.000 --> 00:13:26.960 no doubt about it. 291 00:13:27.399 --> 00:13:29.080 And we know this set. We know the. 292 00:13:29.159 --> 00:13:34.399 Second his original transmission is CORD. The second transmission that 293 00:13:34.519 --> 00:13:37.039 was no good, I'm sure was already sent back because 294 00:13:37.039 --> 00:13:39.519 that was under warranty for the dealer, and then the 295 00:13:39.559 --> 00:13:40.039 third one. 296 00:13:40.120 --> 00:13:41.799 So I don't think we'll ever see the parts. 297 00:13:41.960 --> 00:13:44.240 And if we did, my god, you would have to 298 00:13:44.320 --> 00:13:47.120 spend all that time putting them back into the. 299 00:13:47.080 --> 00:13:49.039 Car forensics and everything on it. Yet, oh you. 300 00:13:49.279 --> 00:13:51.720 Would spend way more than what the car was worth. 301 00:13:51.919 --> 00:13:55.120 In my opinion, it's very very unlikely. 302 00:13:55.120 --> 00:13:57.000 And I'm hoping so this guy was going to look 303 00:13:57.000 --> 00:14:02.879 into it and call me back. Look, man, when Jim 304 00:14:02.919 --> 00:14:05.360 and Andy ran, they used to be in here on 305 00:14:05.399 --> 00:14:06.000 car Fridays. 306 00:14:06.000 --> 00:14:07.360 You met him numerous times. 307 00:14:08.679 --> 00:14:12.039 When these guys were running dealing dudge store in Colorado 308 00:14:12.080 --> 00:14:16.480 Springs before he sold it the Dodge Colorado Springs Dodge. 309 00:14:16.799 --> 00:14:17.960 We never had a problem. 310 00:14:18.279 --> 00:14:21.159 In fact, if we ever had any other issue, including 311 00:14:21.200 --> 00:14:24.759 this Kia store, those guys would make a call for us. 312 00:14:24.799 --> 00:14:27.240 And you know, I'm not saying they're wrong in this. 313 00:14:27.639 --> 00:14:30.919 I'm saying it doesn't smell right no matter what. So 314 00:14:31.000 --> 00:14:32.960 I'm hoping they get it figured out. But here's the 315 00:14:33.000 --> 00:14:35.399 deal man. I'm hoping to hear back from them. I'm 316 00:14:35.440 --> 00:14:38.879 hoping to update this guy. And I just don't know 317 00:14:38.879 --> 00:14:41.799 what else to say. My gut says because I was 318 00:14:41.879 --> 00:14:45.720 there in the chain of events this partner is telling 319 00:14:45.759 --> 00:14:48.519 me don't match up because I was literally in front 320 00:14:48.519 --> 00:14:49.360 of his sales guy. 321 00:14:49.440 --> 00:14:51.519 Well, how did they diagnose the TCM in a bad 322 00:14:51.519 --> 00:14:54.679 transmission if the first one was bad? No idea, that's what. 323 00:14:55.519 --> 00:14:56.360 It doesn't sound right. 324 00:14:56.440 --> 00:14:59.600 It doesn't sound right at all. But I'm hoping we 325 00:14:59.679 --> 00:15:01.559 get to worked out for the guy. This guy doesn't 326 00:15:01.559 --> 00:15:03.200 have a lot of money, but even if he did it, 327 00:15:03.240 --> 00:15:05.320 I mean, it's the principle of the matter. And I 328 00:15:05.320 --> 00:15:07.840 have a feeling once they program those I don't know 329 00:15:07.879 --> 00:15:10.240 when a dealership buys something, and I'll go to the 330 00:15:10.279 --> 00:15:12.440 phones in a second. We have two lines open now 331 00:15:12.679 --> 00:15:15.759 three zero three, Martino. But when a dealership did you 332 00:15:15.799 --> 00:15:16.919 ever work in a dealership? 333 00:15:17.120 --> 00:15:17.279 Yep? 334 00:15:17.399 --> 00:15:18.080 Yeah, yeah. 335 00:15:18.120 --> 00:15:22.960 So when the when the parts people order a TCU 336 00:15:22.480 --> 00:15:25.440 or or a TCM, or if they order any form 337 00:15:25.480 --> 00:15:29.120 of computer for the car or module, can they return 338 00:15:29.159 --> 00:15:31.759 those back or are they stuck? Because when I had 339 00:15:31.759 --> 00:15:34.559 my good years, if we ordered a computer, it was 340 00:15:34.600 --> 00:15:35.200 our computer. 341 00:15:35.600 --> 00:15:37.000 So if it didn't fix it. 342 00:15:36.879 --> 00:15:39.840 They have test modules all over the dealership. 343 00:15:39.559 --> 00:15:41.559 So they yeah, okay, I got you. 344 00:15:41.679 --> 00:15:41.879 Yep. 345 00:15:42.080 --> 00:15:44.000 It's different than when you have your own Is it 346 00:15:44.080 --> 00:15:48.559 still the same? If you order a TCM from a 347 00:15:48.600 --> 00:15:50.840 dealership for one of your customers, you own it. 348 00:15:51.200 --> 00:15:53.200 I own it. Every once in a while I can 349 00:15:53.240 --> 00:15:55.840 get away with send it back, but we don't try. Yeah, 350 00:15:55.960 --> 00:15:57.159 it's just not even worth it. 351 00:15:57.440 --> 00:15:59.919 Hey LJ. What's going on with this water here? 352 00:16:01.200 --> 00:16:01.519 Well? 353 00:16:02.120 --> 00:16:05.279 New Year's Eve, I had uh no water, hot water. 354 00:16:05.600 --> 00:16:07.639 So we found out that it was the control valve 355 00:16:07.799 --> 00:16:10.480 just based off of the air. So I had somebody 356 00:16:10.559 --> 00:16:12.080 come out. 357 00:16:11.720 --> 00:16:14.600 Around the second of January and put in a new 358 00:16:15.080 --> 00:16:20.000 control valve. Shortly after that, we started seeing red water 359 00:16:20.080 --> 00:16:21.879 coming out of the flocets while we're running it. 360 00:16:21.919 --> 00:16:28.799 Hot wow, So I went down and drained the hot 361 00:16:28.840 --> 00:16:32.440 water heater and a little. 362 00:16:32.879 --> 00:16:37.360 Four years old, okay, And so it's a brand new house, 363 00:16:38.279 --> 00:16:43.039 has a PEX plumbing, and so drained the water heater. 364 00:16:44.240 --> 00:16:48.399 I didn't put in an anode because I thought, just 365 00:16:48.519 --> 00:16:51.519 based off of the training, the water heater would work. 366 00:16:51.919 --> 00:16:55.639 But now it's not as reddish. It's like a like 367 00:16:55.679 --> 00:16:57.080 a clay color, if you will. 368 00:16:57.200 --> 00:16:58.399 But you're sounding none of this. 369 00:16:59.120 --> 00:17:01.720 So so when this control valve went out, and by 370 00:17:01.759 --> 00:17:04.799 the way, for people listening, I mean that basically regulates 371 00:17:05.119 --> 00:17:07.799 the flow of gas or cooling or whatever through the 372 00:17:07.839 --> 00:17:12.400 water heater. I assume yours is a gas control valve. 373 00:17:13.559 --> 00:17:14.160 That's correct. 374 00:17:14.200 --> 00:17:15.680 I have no idea why. 375 00:17:15.480 --> 00:17:18.920 That would turn that water red, but you self diagnose 376 00:17:19.039 --> 00:17:21.319 that that was the only problem at the time, right, 377 00:17:21.599 --> 00:17:23.640 So you had a fault like the like the light 378 00:17:23.839 --> 00:17:26.839 was blinking four times or whatever, and you looked it off. 379 00:17:26.880 --> 00:17:28.119 It was a control valve. 380 00:17:29.200 --> 00:17:29.920 Yep, that's correct. 381 00:17:30.079 --> 00:17:31.839 Was there anything else? Hold on? 382 00:17:32.000 --> 00:17:35.720 Was there anything else going on? Was there any symptoms 383 00:17:35.799 --> 00:17:39.319 besides the light blinking? Was it not producing hot water? 384 00:17:40.680 --> 00:17:43.440 That's correct? Yeah, So the kids woke up New Year's 385 00:17:43.480 --> 00:17:47.640 Eve and had no hot water. So we had to 386 00:17:47.680 --> 00:17:50.079 wait because New York' date was closed, so we didn't 387 00:17:50.119 --> 00:17:52.759 have any hot water until the third or the fourth 388 00:17:52.799 --> 00:17:55.640 of January when they came in and replaced the valve. 389 00:17:56.200 --> 00:17:58.839 Man, that's an absolute trip. Let's get on. 390 00:17:59.119 --> 00:18:01.799 So at this point right now, I mean till this day, 391 00:18:01.839 --> 00:18:04.799 if you run hot water on this four year old 392 00:18:04.839 --> 00:18:08.640 water heater, you're actually getting a red tint to the water. 393 00:18:09.759 --> 00:18:10.079 Yeah. 394 00:18:10.079 --> 00:18:12.279 So if I put the way we look at it was. 395 00:18:12.440 --> 00:18:14.880 I don't think a diode would do that either, unless 396 00:18:14.880 --> 00:18:17.839 the minerals, unless you have some crazy minerals. Here's what 397 00:18:17.880 --> 00:18:20.519 I want to do. Let's get Paul, the waterman on. 398 00:18:20.839 --> 00:18:23.079 I want to talk to Paul for two reasons.

We're gonna talk to some different plumbers. 417 00:19:20.920 --> 00:19:23.519 We're gonna talk to Bob Logan. But basically LJ called in. 418 00:19:24.039 --> 00:19:26.240 He had a control valve replaced because a high water 419 00:19:26.240 --> 00:19:28.279 heater wasn't working. It was only four years old. I mean, 420 00:19:28.279 --> 00:19:30.960 it's pretty new water heater. He also drained it and 421 00:19:31.039 --> 00:19:35.359 filled it. But after doing all that stuff well before 422 00:19:35.400 --> 00:19:37.319 he drained it and filled it, and I'm pulling up 423 00:19:37.319 --> 00:19:39.000 Bob Logan with plumbline. 424 00:19:39.039 --> 00:19:39.960 Hey Bob, what's going on? 425 00:19:40.000 --> 00:19:40.160 Man? 426 00:19:40.160 --> 00:19:40.640 How are you doing? 427 00:19:40.680 --> 00:19:40.880 Sir? 428 00:19:41.799 --> 00:19:44.039 I'm doing well, mark you today, I'm doing good. 429 00:19:44.079 --> 00:19:47.279 So after this guy gets a control valve installed by 430 00:19:47.319 --> 00:19:51.240 some company and the water heater starts working again, it's 431 00:19:51.240 --> 00:19:51.880 heating up water. 432 00:19:51.880 --> 00:19:52.680 There's no problem. 433 00:19:53.160 --> 00:19:56.680 What happens is the water is red. Let me lock 434 00:19:56.720 --> 00:20:00.119 you in, Hey, LJ, before you drained and filled it. 435 00:20:00.160 --> 00:20:02.319 How red are we talking? I mean, give me an idea, 436 00:20:02.480 --> 00:20:05.359 like a couple drops of the red dye into a 437 00:20:05.480 --> 00:20:06.200 bottled water. 438 00:20:07.519 --> 00:20:10.640 No, I'll give you our Some plays baseball. So when 439 00:20:10.640 --> 00:20:12.599 he slides in that red clay dirt, he took his 440 00:20:12.759 --> 00:20:13.920 clothes and it's that red. 441 00:20:14.160 --> 00:20:14.559 Got it? 442 00:20:14.559 --> 00:20:17.039 It was? You could see it. It's transparent, but it 443 00:20:17.160 --> 00:20:19.440 was red, like if you were soaking dirty glove. 444 00:20:19.640 --> 00:20:23.079 And then Bob after he drains it and fills it. Hey, 445 00:20:23.119 --> 00:20:25.319 how long was it sitting there broke by. 446 00:20:25.200 --> 00:20:26.039 The way LJ. 447 00:20:27.480 --> 00:20:28.799 About three or four days? 448 00:20:29.000 --> 00:20:33.359 So prior to that there was no red at all anywhere? No, No, 449 00:20:33.720 --> 00:20:35.960 so Bob, no red at all. He drains it and 450 00:20:36.039 --> 00:20:40.359 fills it. And now it's not a red by any stretch, 451 00:20:40.680 --> 00:20:42.440 but it's still got a tin of red to it. 452 00:20:42.880 --> 00:20:45.400 What the hell could it? How could a control valve? 453 00:20:45.680 --> 00:20:48.079 I don't think a control valve would have anything to 454 00:20:48.160 --> 00:20:50.680 do with that, right, I mean, what do you think, Bob. 455 00:20:51.599 --> 00:20:54.039 No control valve wouldn't have anything to do with that? 456 00:20:54.599 --> 00:20:57.440 Is is he on a well by chance? 457 00:20:59.000 --> 00:20:59.240 No? 458 00:20:59.319 --> 00:21:02.000 We're a city of thorn and water. We have a 459 00:21:02.480 --> 00:21:05.720 water software from the water pros attached which we got 460 00:21:05.720 --> 00:21:07.759 for a couple of years. 461 00:21:08.119 --> 00:21:08.759 I agree. 462 00:21:08.799 --> 00:21:10.680 I don't think it's the control valve. The only thing 463 00:21:10.720 --> 00:21:12.880 I can think of is when the guy changed it, 464 00:21:13.240 --> 00:21:15.079 he didn't drain it all the way he would stats 465 00:21:15.160 --> 00:21:18.079 enough to. He drained a little bit right, got it low, 466 00:21:18.559 --> 00:21:20.559 put the new valve in. Some water came out, So 467 00:21:20.599 --> 00:21:22.599 I don't know if that yeah, but put everything off 468 00:21:22.599 --> 00:21:24.680 the bottom. But I drained it and got a lot 469 00:21:24.680 --> 00:21:25.400 of sediment out. 470 00:21:25.559 --> 00:21:30.240 But guys, why if there was no redness prior to that, 471 00:21:30.400 --> 00:21:34.400 only three days before, whether he drained any of it 472 00:21:34.400 --> 00:21:36.680 out to do the control valver all of it out? 473 00:21:36.880 --> 00:21:39.319 Where the hell did the red come from? 474 00:21:39.839 --> 00:21:41.640 Well, it could be from the sediment that was in 475 00:21:41.720 --> 00:21:44.279 the bottom of the tank. Mark they got mixed up. 476 00:21:44.400 --> 00:21:46.880 And now it's just settling. 477 00:21:49.240 --> 00:21:52.599 I see what you're saying, So, Bob, when a hot 478 00:21:52.640 --> 00:21:56.319 water heater is up and functioning for years in your house, 479 00:21:56.960 --> 00:21:59.359 all that sediment's going to go to the bottom. But 480 00:21:59.440 --> 00:22:02.680 when this I possibly drained some of it, not all 481 00:22:02.680 --> 00:22:05.960 of it. Installed, the new valve, fired it back up, 482 00:22:06.359 --> 00:22:09.440 It started filling itself back up to the top, kicks 483 00:22:09.480 --> 00:22:12.640 on the gas. It could have mixed all together, and 484 00:22:12.720 --> 00:22:13.839 now you have the red. 485 00:22:15.359 --> 00:22:22.240 That's that's my my thoughts. So so my suggestion like, 486 00:22:22.279 --> 00:22:23.480 how long has this been going on? 487 00:22:23.680 --> 00:22:26.200 For four years? Bob? Is that right? No? No, no, 488 00:22:26.200 --> 00:22:27.599 no years. 489 00:22:27.759 --> 00:22:30.440 So no, that's who old the water heater is. The 490 00:22:31.440 --> 00:22:34.559 issue has been going on since we repleased it, and 491 00:22:34.720 --> 00:22:37.079 so I have to put a new anode in anyway. 492 00:22:37.200 --> 00:22:38.559 That was one of the other things I was going 493 00:22:38.599 --> 00:22:41.599 to try to do. I don't have any issues draining it. 494 00:22:41.640 --> 00:22:44.559 And when I drained it, the initial I would say 495 00:22:44.559 --> 00:22:47.799 five or six gallons, oh maybe five gallons have that 496 00:22:47.960 --> 00:22:50.640 redness to it when I was draining it. But then 497 00:22:50.680 --> 00:22:55.200 I sat there for quite quite a while once it 498 00:22:55.279 --> 00:22:58.240 was completely empty, turning on the cold water, having it 499 00:22:58.319 --> 00:23:01.839 kind of uh, just rup what everyone's at the bottom. 500 00:23:02.039 --> 00:23:04.119 And I did that on and off for about an hour, 501 00:23:04.200 --> 00:23:06.720 you know, fill it for about ten seconds, drain it, 502 00:23:06.839 --> 00:23:09.119 fill it for another ten drain it. And I did 503 00:23:09.119 --> 00:23:11.559 that for I started at six in the morning with 504 00:23:11.599 --> 00:23:12.920 Don right before the Bronco game. 505 00:23:13.519 --> 00:23:16.319 Hey, Bob, is there any way on these Is there 506 00:23:16.359 --> 00:23:19.599 any way on these water heaters? Like I'll give you 507 00:23:19.599 --> 00:23:22.400 an idea of what I'm asking on our bus when 508 00:23:22.440 --> 00:23:24.519 we want to clean out the. 509 00:23:24.400 --> 00:23:26.039 Gray tank or the black tank. 510 00:23:26.599 --> 00:23:29.880 We can basically hit a certain button, it'll redirect the 511 00:23:29.960 --> 00:23:33.400 water and it'll spray around inside the tank for a 512 00:23:33.400 --> 00:23:35.920 while and just clean the heck out of it. Man, 513 00:23:36.160 --> 00:23:38.799 Do water heaters have any place you can connect a 514 00:23:38.839 --> 00:23:41.599 hose or do something to where they're going to clean 515 00:23:41.640 --> 00:23:43.680 themselves and then you can drain it. 516 00:23:44.839 --> 00:23:53.799 No, nothing'll so I mean to, you know, try to 517 00:23:53.880 --> 00:23:57.759 drain it again and then and then you know. 518 00:23:57.880 --> 00:23:58.519 Go to use it. 519 00:23:58.680 --> 00:24:01.359 So chances are, if you know your water filter is 520 00:24:01.400 --> 00:24:06.079 working properly, you're not on the well and it happened, 521 00:24:06.559 --> 00:24:09.720 you know, and it's just short term. I would just 522 00:24:09.759 --> 00:24:13.240 continue to run it and it should clear up over time. 523 00:24:13.279 --> 00:24:15.319 It might take again, if that settiment has kind of 524 00:24:15.319 --> 00:24:17.680 floating around there, Yeah, it might take a little call 525 00:24:17.720 --> 00:24:25.000 for that to settle. But but again, you're it's that's 526 00:24:25.039 --> 00:24:26.880 that's about my only guest there. 527 00:24:27.039 --> 00:24:29.039 Yeah, what else could it be? I never thought about 528 00:24:29.079 --> 00:24:30.039 that with the sediment. 529 00:24:30.119 --> 00:24:33.160 I have never We've owned homes for thirty years and 530 00:24:33.200 --> 00:24:34.599 I've never had red water. 531 00:24:36.200 --> 00:24:36.519 Yeah. 532 00:24:37.279 --> 00:24:40.559 No, it's nuts, man, But okay, I mean I appreciate 533 00:24:40.640 --> 00:24:43.279 that that makes a lot of sense. In fact, it's 534 00:24:43.400 --> 00:24:46.359 very logical too. He's just got to continue to, you know, 535 00:24:46.480 --> 00:24:48.799 drain it, fill it back up, drain it, fill it 536 00:24:48.839 --> 00:24:51.400 back up, run some water, and it is going to 537 00:24:51.440 --> 00:24:55.160 go away. But you're you're kind of it is interesting 538 00:24:55.279 --> 00:24:58.480 with a water system in there as well. I wonder 539 00:24:58.519 --> 00:25:00.799 why the water system and that would be a question 540 00:25:00.880 --> 00:25:04.960 for Paul. Why the softener isn't helping out with this. 541 00:25:06.039 --> 00:25:09.480 Well and it and it should Again, there's a different 542 00:25:09.720 --> 00:25:12.039 a filter and a softener. I'm not sure. 543 00:25:12.799 --> 00:25:13.480 I'm not sure he. 544 00:25:13.480 --> 00:25:16.880 Has installed there, And yeah, that's true, and of. 545 00:25:16.759 --> 00:25:19.200 Course those should be coming in before the water heater. 546 00:25:19.240 --> 00:25:21.680 If he was installed installed after the water heater, he's 547 00:25:21.720 --> 00:25:25.559 not going to do any good. And so, uh, you know, 548 00:25:25.720 --> 00:25:29.480 it's it's hard to say. But the other possibility, my 549 00:25:29.599 --> 00:25:31.720 plumber said, but I don't think this is it, because 550 00:25:32.480 --> 00:25:35.039 it would have had in these these challenges before, is 551 00:25:35.079 --> 00:25:39.359 that if if it was installed using fittings, the wrong 552 00:25:39.480 --> 00:25:46.559 fittings that allowed electrolysis to happen, then then that that 553 00:25:46.680 --> 00:25:48.519 could cause a similar problem. 554 00:25:48.640 --> 00:25:51.559 How much do you guys, typically speaking, how much do 555 00:25:51.599 --> 00:25:54.440 you guys charge if this guy called you up directly 556 00:25:54.480 --> 00:25:57.480 over at plumb Line Services and said, here's what's going on, 557 00:25:57.559 --> 00:26:00.720 how do you guys typically charge for a plumb service call? 558 00:26:00.759 --> 00:26:02.559 And the reason I asked that is not just for 559 00:26:02.680 --> 00:26:06.039 this call. You know, over the next three days there 560 00:26:06.039 --> 00:26:09.440 are so many people that aren't gonna simply undo the 561 00:26:09.519 --> 00:26:12.279 hose from the hose bib outside, and they're going to 562 00:26:12.359 --> 00:26:17.960 have frozen and broken pipes in everything. Typically speaking, maybe 563 00:26:18.000 --> 00:26:21.440 not on an emergency when it's below zero for three days, 564 00:26:21.599 --> 00:26:25.079 but typically speaking, what do you guys charge to put 565 00:26:25.079 --> 00:26:28.359 a licensed plumber into a truck and send them out 566 00:26:28.400 --> 00:26:29.720 for a diagnosis. 567 00:26:30.440 --> 00:26:34.759 Well, the price, the price is the same regardless of 568 00:26:34.799 --> 00:26:37.519 whether it's freezing, whether or not it's forty nine dollars 569 00:26:38.119 --> 00:26:44.400 can normal that just two hundred dollars after hours. But 570 00:26:44.759 --> 00:26:48.000 and when they get there, they'll they'll do a visual 571 00:26:48.039 --> 00:26:51.160 diagnostic of everything. You know, they'll ask you the questions 572 00:26:51.240 --> 00:26:54.480 through some some test to a visual diagnostic. You know, 573 00:26:54.720 --> 00:26:58.359 if like for example, on a on pipes frozen or 574 00:26:58.400 --> 00:27:01.480 something like that, they got to starting drywall, they're doing 575 00:27:01.759 --> 00:27:05.440 further diagnosis and over those charges. But just get a 576 00:27:05.640 --> 00:27:08.640 professional there and you can get the rise. 577 00:27:08.440 --> 00:27:11.599 On forty nine bucks. Yeah, yeah, you can't beat that. 578 00:27:11.680 --> 00:27:14.319 Plumb line services. You see these guys everywhere. I think 579 00:27:14.400 --> 00:27:18.039 the In fact, you guys are the largest home services 580 00:27:18.079 --> 00:27:19.640 company in Colorado, aren't you, Bob? 581 00:27:20.480 --> 00:27:21.559 We are now Mark? 582 00:27:21.640 --> 00:27:23.640 Yeah, wow, you know impressive. 583 00:27:24.720 --> 00:27:26.960 It was always just to be the best and yeah, 584 00:27:27.000 --> 00:27:29.160 and over the last five years. 585 00:27:29.079 --> 00:27:30.200 One follows the other. 586 00:27:30.279 --> 00:27:32.960 Though, when when you were set out to be the best, 587 00:27:33.319 --> 00:27:35.960 not necessarily the biggest, most of the time you become 588 00:27:36.000 --> 00:27:39.319 the biggest because you set out to be the best. 589 00:27:40.279 --> 00:27:42.759 Well that's I think that's what's happened. And you know, 590 00:27:42.799 --> 00:27:44.839 we're certainly not perfect, but we strive. 591 00:27:46.079 --> 00:27:47.640 And I'll give your phone number out at the end 592 00:27:47.640 --> 00:27:50.640 for people. But one one question for everybody listening. What's 593 00:27:50.680 --> 00:27:53.079 the number one you call you get after we have 594 00:27:53.240 --> 00:27:57.599 three days like literally below zero We're talking negative ten fifteen, 595 00:27:58.039 --> 00:28:01.200 just extreme cold for a long period of time. 596 00:28:01.519 --> 00:28:03.720 Is the number one call? Broken pipes? 597 00:28:04.000 --> 00:28:07.200 And I assume what happens is they're still frozen, but 598 00:28:07.240 --> 00:28:08.559 they're not getting any water. 599 00:28:08.759 --> 00:28:11.839 I mean, what is that number one call in this 600 00:28:11.920 --> 00:28:12.559 kind of cold? 601 00:28:14.119 --> 00:28:17.119 You're exactly right, So the first thing that's going to 602 00:28:17.160 --> 00:28:18.880 happen is the pipes are going to freeze and you're 603 00:28:18.920 --> 00:28:19.839 not going to have water. 604 00:28:20.599 --> 00:28:21.920 And chances are. 605 00:28:21.839 --> 00:28:23.480 If that happens that. 606 00:28:24.519 --> 00:28:27.839 Freeze broke the pipe someplace, and then after it starts thawing, 607 00:28:27.880 --> 00:28:30.160 it's going to start flooding someplace somewhere. 608 00:28:30.200 --> 00:28:32.440 So you better be really careful. 609 00:28:33.400 --> 00:28:35.240 So I would recommend, like you said, make sure your 610 00:28:35.279 --> 00:28:39.720 hoses are disconnected over the next several days, open up 611 00:28:39.759 --> 00:28:43.000 the cabinets underneath the sinks, especially if they're on an 612 00:28:43.039 --> 00:28:46.359 outside wall. Allow that warm air to come in from 613 00:28:46.400 --> 00:28:50.559 the house colder is not trapped in there. Maybe even 614 00:28:50.720 --> 00:28:53.279 like you know, Sunday night, Monday, when it's going to 615 00:28:53.319 --> 00:28:57.720 get to single digits, just drip your faucet, turn the 616 00:28:57.720 --> 00:29:00.519 hot water on just as a drip to eat that 617 00:29:00.640 --> 00:29:02.079 warm water flowing through there. 618 00:29:02.200 --> 00:29:03.240 And then hose pibs. 619 00:29:03.279 --> 00:29:06.960 My god, if you have a hose connected outside disconnected. 620 00:29:07.319 --> 00:29:09.559 Yes, because not only are you going to get the 621 00:29:09.599 --> 00:29:11.880 flooding on the outside, but that's going to break it 622 00:29:11.920 --> 00:29:15.000 on the inside and you're going to it's gonna flood 623 00:29:15.039 --> 00:29:15.359 your house. 624 00:29:15.400 --> 00:29:17.599 And I'll tell you something else people should do, Bob 625 00:29:17.680 --> 00:29:20.960 big time. They should go figure out where their shut 626 00:29:20.960 --> 00:29:23.119 off is if they don't know. If you don't know 627 00:29:23.160 --> 00:29:25.880 where the main shut off is, you better go find 628 00:29:25.920 --> 00:29:28.559 it because if you got water flying out from under 629 00:29:28.559 --> 00:29:30.880 the kitchen sink all of a sudden, and you got 630 00:29:30.880 --> 00:29:33.000 to go Google or try to figure out where it 631 00:29:33.079 --> 00:29:34.440 is you need to do that. 632 00:29:34.519 --> 00:29:37.559 You need to know where the hell it is. That's right. 633 00:29:37.680 --> 00:29:40.720 Every every house has one main shut off, typically in 634 00:29:40.759 --> 00:29:43.759 your basement that'll shut out the water to the entire 635 00:29:43.799 --> 00:29:48.200 house and to your point if if your pipees freeze 636 00:29:48.599 --> 00:29:51.759 or if they're you know, if you're not getting if 637 00:29:51.799 --> 00:29:53.799 you're not getting water, that means your pipes are frozen. 638 00:29:53.880 --> 00:29:56.119 You have to shut that belve off so that when 639 00:29:56.160 --> 00:29:58.519 they do though, you're not flooding your house.

And 684 00:32:33.160 --> 00:32:37.759 then I am just shocked. Do you realize this is 685 00:32:37.799 --> 00:32:41.839 the first time in history, It will be the first 686 00:32:41.839 --> 00:32:44.480 time in history when a public form of some kind 687 00:32:44.519 --> 00:32:47.839 has been shut down in America. You know, they've been 688 00:32:47.839 --> 00:32:50.240 doing that all over the country, all over the world, 689 00:32:50.640 --> 00:32:55.160 like in Charina and Russia. Yeah, it's major to me. 690 00:32:55.599 --> 00:32:59.880 And I'm of the thought that, you know, complete and open, 691 00:33:00.599 --> 00:33:03.559 except that I don't take into considerations something I may 692 00:33:03.640 --> 00:33:07.400 or may not know. And see they're not saying they're 693 00:33:07.400 --> 00:33:10.319 shutting it down because of the expression on there that 694 00:33:10.599 --> 00:33:13.400 has nothing to do with it, not the content. They're 695 00:33:13.440 --> 00:33:16.559 saying it's a spy app. But what could it possibly 696 00:33:16.680 --> 00:33:19.920 gather that would help that would be against you know 697 00:33:19.960 --> 00:33:22.920 what I'm saying. Can I do understand it? Yeah? 698 00:33:23.000 --> 00:33:26.400 Go ahead? Well what are they what are they afraid of? Well, 699 00:33:27.279 --> 00:33:32.880 they're afraid of everything. The amount of information that TikTok grabs. 700 00:33:32.960 --> 00:33:37.720 TikTok knows everything. If that app is running, which on 701 00:33:37.839 --> 00:33:40.039 most people that have it, it's running everywhere. 702 00:33:40.240 --> 00:33:41.319 They know where you go. 703 00:33:41.480 --> 00:33:44.039 They know your location, they know how long you hang 704 00:33:44.039 --> 00:33:46.920 out at the bowling Alley, they know what restaurants you 705 00:33:47.039 --> 00:33:48.200 go to, they know what. 706 00:33:49.359 --> 00:33:52.000 So does Google Maps as far as that's concerned. 707 00:33:51.960 --> 00:33:54.440 Say that again, Jeff, here's what I want to know. 708 00:33:54.519 --> 00:33:57.599 What will that do? But wait, Jeff, that's a perfect example. 709 00:33:57.680 --> 00:34:00.519 So does Google Maps. But so does if you have 710 00:34:00.559 --> 00:34:04.880 a tesla. But but the Chinese government doesn't have access 711 00:34:05.079 --> 00:34:09.440 to Google Maps. That's the difference. They know where everything 712 00:34:09.519 --> 00:34:12.679 is going on. Then what happens is, say an election's 713 00:34:12.719 --> 00:34:16.360 coming up, they can say, oh, okay, well everybody on 714 00:34:16.440 --> 00:34:20.119 TikTok that you know goes to a liquor store twice 715 00:34:20.159 --> 00:34:23.119 a week. I'm totally making stuff up. But so people 716 00:34:23.159 --> 00:34:25.639 get an idea of what they could target. We want 717 00:34:25.639 --> 00:34:28.559 to target all these people before the election that Joe 718 00:34:28.559 --> 00:34:31.599 Blow is going to outlaw liquor. They can start, they 719 00:34:31.639 --> 00:34:36.159 can start running ads against whatever they don't want to happen. 720 00:34:36.239 --> 00:34:41.239 Because they have all the data on everybody, so can Facebook, Facebook. 721 00:34:41.719 --> 00:34:46.400 To the Chinese government. So you're wait a minute, So 722 00:34:46.519 --> 00:34:50.199 you're saying that the information gathering is not the problem, 723 00:34:50.280 --> 00:34:51.800 it's who's getting the information. 724 00:34:51.920 --> 00:34:54.440 Well, a lot of people would say both, but not me. 725 00:34:54.679 --> 00:34:57.239 I've already given up the dream of my life is 726 00:34:57.320 --> 00:35:00.639 private in this world. So but no, the problem is 727 00:35:00.679 --> 00:35:04.760 it's who owns it. It's our adversary.

In your opinion, you had a license in 819 00:39:32.840 --> 00:39:35.800 twenty twenty three and twenty twenty four, but they never 820 00:39:35.880 --> 00:39:39.639 really reissued the license for twenty twenty three and twenty 821 00:39:39.719 --> 00:39:42.639 twenty four. It was just in your opinion. Is that correct? 822 00:39:44.800 --> 00:39:47.519 Well, it's not in our opinion. We submitted it, and 823 00:39:47.559 --> 00:39:50.519 we have, like the document proof that we did submit it. 824 00:39:51.280 --> 00:39:53.119 And then I'm not talking. 825 00:39:52.800 --> 00:39:57.280 About that, Bethel. Bethel, Listen, when you go through procedures, 826 00:39:57.400 --> 00:40:00.519 you got to accept things in the form asking you 827 00:40:00.760 --> 00:40:04.840 if you agree you never obtained an actual official license 828 00:40:05.079 --> 00:40:08.840 for twenty twenty three and twenty twenty four except in 829 00:40:08.920 --> 00:40:09.599 your opinion. 830 00:40:12.519 --> 00:40:13.440 I don't understand. 831 00:40:15.039 --> 00:40:17.599 Okay, Bethel, I'm gonna put it this way. If you 832 00:40:17.760 --> 00:40:20.880 had a license in twenty twenty three and twenty twenty four, 833 00:40:21.079 --> 00:40:23.880 we wouldn't be on the phone right now. 834 00:40:25.440 --> 00:40:25.880 Correct. 835 00:40:26.239 --> 00:40:28.719 The reason you're the reason you're on the phone is 836 00:40:28.760 --> 00:40:32.280 they are not acknowledging that you are licensed. 837 00:40:35.719 --> 00:40:38.599 Okay, Correct, Okay. 838 00:40:38.320 --> 00:40:41.000 Now, Bethel, I want I want to ask you a 839 00:40:41.039 --> 00:40:44.000 simple question that I want Mark to unload his research. 840 00:40:44.519 --> 00:40:48.400 The simple question is this, are there other landlords right 841 00:40:48.440 --> 00:40:54.079 now in loan Tree that do have acknowledged licenses and 842 00:40:54.239 --> 00:40:56.320 are renting short term? 843 00:40:57.400 --> 00:41:00.239 I'm not sure if they have licenses. I'm pretty sure 844 00:41:00.280 --> 00:41:03.280 they have to, but there are other people renting in 845 00:41:03.320 --> 00:41:03.920 the country. 846 00:41:04.119 --> 00:41:07.320 Okay, Mark, what did you find out? Well, it's real simple, man. 847 00:41:07.400 --> 00:41:12.960 So they basically banned short term rentals like airbnbvrbo anything 848 00:41:13.079 --> 00:41:14.880 like that. But here's what it says. 849 00:41:14.760 --> 00:41:17.320 Even with a license. Mark, listen, here's what it says. 850 00:41:17.559 --> 00:41:21.159 Short term rentals that were established prior to March eighth, 851 00:41:21.400 --> 00:41:27.320 twenty twenty three are permitted to continue their operations provided 852 00:41:27.760 --> 00:41:32.559 they operate with a city business license, remitted tax returns 853 00:41:32.599 --> 00:41:36.000 for the past three years of operation, and obtained a 854 00:41:36.119 --> 00:41:38.400 permit by May seventh. 855 00:41:38.199 --> 00:41:45.800 Twenty twenty three. She didn't do that, apparently, Bethel, did 856 00:41:45.800 --> 00:41:46.239 you do that? 857 00:41:50.119 --> 00:41:53.320 I mean, we weren't informed about all of these licenses. 858 00:41:53.360 --> 00:41:55.400 All we knew is that we needed to have a 859 00:41:55.440 --> 00:41:57.559 short term mental license. 860 00:41:57.840 --> 00:42:00.960 Did you guys have your doubt Chaska, when you guys 861 00:42:01.000 --> 00:42:05.039 did your Airbnb or VRBO or whatever you did. For example, 862 00:42:05.119 --> 00:42:08.079 are they on your tax returns anywhere? Or you could 863 00:42:08.119 --> 00:42:10.360 prove that you did it for three years? Or were 864 00:42:10.360 --> 00:42:12.519 you pocketing the money or how did that work? And 865 00:42:12.639 --> 00:42:15.360 did you have as Tom asked you one hundred times, 866 00:42:15.599 --> 00:42:20.280 did you actually have a license any of those years? 867 00:42:20.880 --> 00:42:23.079 Yes, we did, we did the text. No, she did 868 00:42:23.079 --> 00:42:24.159 directly and everything. 869 00:42:26.000 --> 00:42:28.559 She just had it for twenty twenty three. Mark, Okay, 870 00:42:28.679 --> 00:42:29.559 I'm convinced of that. 871 00:42:29.760 --> 00:42:32.559 Yeah, and she did, and she did obtain the permit 872 00:42:32.920 --> 00:42:34.800 by May seventh, twenty twenty three. 873 00:42:34.840 --> 00:42:43.440 I mean that's two years ago, almost right. So okay, 874 00:42:43.519 --> 00:42:45.800 so what do we do about this? You said you 875 00:42:45.880 --> 00:42:47.119 sued them? What does that mean? 876 00:42:48.599 --> 00:42:51.719 Well, we sued them because they were not preventing. They 877 00:42:51.760 --> 00:42:54.039 were not allowing us to run, even though we did 878 00:42:54.039 --> 00:42:57.800 apply for the license and everything. And so our lawyers 879 00:42:57.800 --> 00:43:01.679 told us that we can either plead guilty or guilty 880 00:43:01.800 --> 00:43:04.800 because they were finding us for renting even though they 881 00:43:04.840 --> 00:43:07.679 said we didn't have a license. And so they said, 882 00:43:07.679 --> 00:43:11.440 we can either plead guilty or not guilty, and if 883 00:43:11.440 --> 00:43:14.000 we plead guilty, we don't get the license. If we 884 00:43:14.079 --> 00:43:17.159 don't plead guilty, you don't get the license, and so 885 00:43:17.400 --> 00:43:20.639 we don't win in the situation either way, and so 886 00:43:20.760 --> 00:43:22.880 we wanted to city for determination. 887 00:43:24.719 --> 00:43:28.039 Well, it's pretty hard to know. First of all, there's 888 00:43:28.079 --> 00:43:31.400 no such thing that the defamation does not it does 889 00:43:31.639 --> 00:43:35.159 enter into this at all. There is no definite I mean, 890 00:43:35.199 --> 00:43:38.400 I'm not an attorney here, but I'm telling you there 891 00:43:38.440 --> 00:43:41.599 there is. Tell me, what do you mean by defamation? Well, 892 00:43:41.599 --> 00:43:42.800 how are they defaming you? 893 00:43:45.400 --> 00:43:46.599 They were allowed? 894 00:43:46.800 --> 00:43:49.519 Let's not even go ahead. 895 00:43:50.960 --> 00:43:53.039 No, I mean, if you want to answer the questions 896 00:43:53.039 --> 00:43:54.039 for me, go ahead. 897 00:43:55.440 --> 00:43:58.920 No, I'm asking you how are they defaming you? I'm 898 00:43:58.920 --> 00:44:00.760 not trying to be as smart as I would ask 899 00:44:00.800 --> 00:44:03.239 that you not be either. Okay, I'm trying to help you, 900 00:44:03.519 --> 00:44:05.920 but I think that you have an opinion and you 901 00:44:06.079 --> 00:44:08.840 feel everyone should agree with it, and I'm trying to 902 00:44:08.880 --> 00:44:11.679 give you an objective look to help you, not to 903 00:44:11.800 --> 00:44:15.480 hurt you. So I'm asking you, how did the city 904 00:44:15.559 --> 00:44:19.920 defame you. 905 00:44:18.079 --> 00:44:20.559 By not letting us have our license? 906 00:44:21.960 --> 00:44:26.519 That's not defamation. Defamation is this. Here's what defamation is. 907 00:44:27.000 --> 00:44:30.800 Bethel and her family are disgusting. Bethel and her family 908 00:44:30.840 --> 00:44:34.880 are disgusting, and they shouldn't have rentals because they don't 909 00:44:34.920 --> 00:44:38.599 know how to treat people and they are criminals. That's defamation. 910 00:44:40.239 --> 00:44:45.320 That's what defamation is. It's not refusing to allow you 911 00:44:45.679 --> 00:44:49.840 to have a license because you think you should have one, 912 00:44:50.679 --> 00:44:52.760 but getting right to the point of suing this city. 913 00:44:52.840 --> 00:44:56.960 I mean, that's so costly and you're not going to change. 914 00:44:56.519 --> 00:45:00.639 You're not going to change what's happening right now. Did 915 00:45:00.679 --> 00:45:03.519 you guys actually hire an attorney to try to get 916 00:45:03.519 --> 00:45:06.440 the license or the only reason the attorney was involved 917 00:45:06.599 --> 00:45:10.280 is because they were finding you. 918 00:45:10.320 --> 00:45:14.039 No, we actually tried. We got a lawyer to help 919 00:45:14.079 --> 00:45:18.199 with define and to help us get the license. 920 00:45:18.000 --> 00:45:21.480 And they still denied it. Yes, I don't know where 921 00:45:21.480 --> 00:45:23.760 you would go from there, Tom, any ideas. I mean, 922 00:45:23.760 --> 00:45:25.599 if a lawyer's not going to get it done. 923 00:45:25.760 --> 00:45:29.280 And a judge actually said it, I think I'd like 924 00:45:29.360 --> 00:45:32.239 to know the reasons they're being turned down. I think 925 00:45:32.280 --> 00:45:33.440 she has a right to know that. 926 00:45:33.639 --> 00:45:33.800 Well. 927 00:45:33.840 --> 00:45:36.519 I think the reasons they're exactly what I read. I mean, 928 00:45:36.559 --> 00:45:40.719 she did not obtain a permit by May seventh, twenty 929 00:45:40.800 --> 00:45:42.599 twenty three, two years ago. 930 00:45:43.239 --> 00:45:46.639 But does that mean that right now, no new applications. 931 00:45:46.679 --> 00:45:48.960 If she wanted to start over, she can't do that. No, 932 00:45:49.039 --> 00:45:53.599 it's done. Man, that doesn't seem fair. 933 00:45:53.719 --> 00:45:57.679 It's only grandfathered people that it appears. It's only grandfathered 934 00:45:57.679 --> 00:46:00.840 people that had been bus in business were short term 935 00:46:00.880 --> 00:46:05.000 rentals in loan Tree for three years prior that actually 936 00:46:05.079 --> 00:46:08.280 went out and got the city business license and got 937 00:46:08.320 --> 00:46:12.199 the new permit, the grandfathered permit by May seventh, twenty 938 00:46:12.239 --> 00:46:15.400 twenty three. 939 00:46:16.360 --> 00:46:20.760 So they're saying, if you didn't do it, you can 940 00:46:20.840 --> 00:46:23.079 never do it. Yeah, in this thing doesn't sound right. 941 00:46:23.159 --> 00:46:25.360 Well, yeah, if you don't move there, if you move 942 00:46:25.440 --> 00:46:28.519 there now, you cannot do short term rentals no matter what. 943 00:46:30.800 --> 00:46:33.159 Okay, So you could have been grandfathered in, but she 944 00:46:33.239 --> 00:46:34.159 didn't do it properly. 945 00:46:34.159 --> 00:46:37.480 Well, if that's what I keep asking, and you kept asking, 946 00:46:37.519 --> 00:46:40.400 what I'm trying to figure out is it says listen 947 00:46:40.440 --> 00:46:43.599 again at the callers short term rentals that were established 948 00:46:43.920 --> 00:46:47.039 prior to March eighth, twenty twenty three. So first of all, 949 00:46:47.079 --> 00:46:50.039 did you guys rent this out prior to March eighth? 950 00:46:50.119 --> 00:46:50.280 Yes? 951 00:46:50.400 --> 00:46:54.719 Or no, we're reventing before March eighth, yes. 952 00:46:54.800 --> 00:46:56.639 Twenty twenty three? 953 00:46:56.920 --> 00:47:00.159 Yeah, okay, did you operate with the city business this 954 00:47:00.320 --> 00:47:01.159 license not? 955 00:47:01.599 --> 00:47:04.000 Did you try to get one? And didn't. But did 956 00:47:04.039 --> 00:47:07.000 you literally have a city business license. 957 00:47:06.880 --> 00:47:11.239 At that time prior to March twenty twenty three, yes, 958 00:47:11.480 --> 00:47:15.679 and then you remitted taxes for the past three years. Yes, 959 00:47:16.119 --> 00:47:21.639 and then by May seventh, twenty twenty three, you obtained 960 00:47:21.639 --> 00:47:24.320 a permit or you tried to obtain a permit. 961 00:47:25.039 --> 00:47:25.880 Yes, he tried. 962 00:47:26.000 --> 00:47:28.559 So why did they deny it the first time? Why 963 00:47:28.559 --> 00:47:30.880 did they say no the first time? Then let's come 964 00:47:30.920 --> 00:47:33.239 back to this.

Listen, Brad, 991 00:49:04.320 --> 00:49:07.280 have you been getting many calls from people who want 992 00:49:07.280 --> 00:49:09.920 to do short term rentals and a lot of cities 993 00:49:09.960 --> 00:49:12.559 are shutting those down? Uh? 994 00:49:12.639 --> 00:49:16.880 Yeah, Tom, they are becoming more regulated, and yeah, Denver 995 00:49:17.000 --> 00:49:19.760 and some other Mountain towns are definitely regulating them and 996 00:49:19.800 --> 00:49:20.639 requiring licensing. 997 00:49:22.480 --> 00:49:25.800 Now, loan Tree went one step further. As I understand it, 998 00:49:26.440 --> 00:49:30.639 they not only required licensing, but that's only for grandfathering 999 00:49:30.679 --> 00:49:33.480 in those who had been doing it, and they will 1000 00:49:33.519 --> 00:49:36.840 allow no new licenses. Is that what I understand? Mark? 1001 00:49:36.960 --> 00:49:40.920 Is that what it was is that you readily so 1002 00:49:41.159 --> 00:49:45.840 Brad Bethel said she's had a license once in twenty 1003 00:49:45.920 --> 00:49:53.400 twenty three and they would not grandfather her. Now you know, Bethel, 1004 00:49:53.519 --> 00:49:56.320 did you actually sue the city? At first? I want 1005 00:49:56.360 --> 00:49:58.800 to ask that you said you did. Did you actually 1006 00:49:58.840 --> 00:49:59.840 file a lawsuit? 1007 00:50:02.039 --> 00:50:02.400 Yes? 1008 00:50:04.119 --> 00:50:05.199 Did you lose or win? 1009 00:50:07.039 --> 00:50:11.199 Well, it's not finished yet. They want me to plead guilty, 1010 00:50:12.039 --> 00:50:15.480 and my lawyers want me to plead guilty. So then 1011 00:50:15.519 --> 00:50:18.559 I just pay a one time one thousand for all 1012 00:50:18.559 --> 00:50:20.679 the fines that I thought when I was renting when 1013 00:50:20.679 --> 00:50:21.320 they told. 1014 00:50:21.119 --> 00:50:21.559 Me not to. 1015 00:50:23.320 --> 00:50:27.599 Okay, So did you bring this lawsuit or did the 1016 00:50:27.639 --> 00:50:31.079 city bring it? When you say guilty, did the city 1017 00:50:31.480 --> 00:50:34.280 find you and that's what you sued about? 1018 00:50:35.920 --> 00:50:38.639 Yes, well we find them, so there's multiple cases. We 1019 00:50:38.679 --> 00:50:41.800 find them about the fine, wet them, sue them for 1020 00:50:41.840 --> 00:50:46.400 the fines, and then we all sue them for the 1021 00:50:46.440 --> 00:50:52.559 rent the license, and then they did my lawyers put 1022 00:50:52.599 --> 00:50:55.280 them all under one case, one big case. 1023 00:50:56.760 --> 00:50:59.639 So you're suing to get the fines dismissed and to 1024 00:50:59.719 --> 00:51:05.320 rein say your license basically, yes, where does it stand 1025 00:51:05.440 --> 00:51:06.519 in the courts right now? 1026 00:51:09.960 --> 00:51:13.519 I'm not sure my mom is dealing with all of that. 1027 00:51:13.639 --> 00:51:14.920 I'm calling on her behalf. 1028 00:51:16.360 --> 00:51:22.360 Okay, So you're not sure where it stands? Okay, so 1029 00:51:22.840 --> 00:51:26.360 you called today to find out what, Brad, I guess 1030 00:51:26.360 --> 00:51:28.519 you're going to say, you know, the courts have it. 1031 00:51:28.719 --> 00:51:31.559 Let him decide, right, I mean, she was she was 1032 00:51:31.639 --> 00:51:36.400 obviously fined for she kept doing it after twenty twenty 1033 00:51:36.440 --> 00:51:40.199 three when they did not renew her license, and Mark said, 1034 00:51:40.239 --> 00:51:43.599 one of the reasons they probably did not renew her 1035 00:51:43.639 --> 00:51:47.400 license was because she was required to do a few things. Mark, 1036 00:51:47.440 --> 00:51:47.920 what was that? 1037 00:51:48.519 --> 00:51:51.360 Well, she had to submit three years of tax returns 1038 00:51:51.400 --> 00:51:55.679 where I guess that rental property income would be on there. 1039 00:51:55.760 --> 00:51:58.039 She had to prove that, you know, she was licensed 1040 00:51:58.079 --> 00:52:00.159 to do it, and then I guess at most most 1041 00:52:00.199 --> 00:52:03.039 important part I was reading, is it all had to 1042 00:52:03.079 --> 00:52:05.840 be done before May seventh, twenty twenty three. 1043 00:52:05.880 --> 00:52:06.199 Brad. 1044 00:52:06.400 --> 00:52:09.400 Here's what it says. It's the City of Loane Tree's website. 1045 00:52:09.599 --> 00:52:12.760 It says short term rentals were established prior short term 1046 00:52:12.760 --> 00:52:15.679 rentals that were established prior to March eight, twenty twenty three, 1047 00:52:15.920 --> 00:52:20.719 are permitted to continue their operations provided they operate with 1048 00:52:20.840 --> 00:52:25.079 the city business license, remitted taxes for the past three 1049 00:52:25.159 --> 00:52:28.840 years of operation, and obtained a permit by May seventh, 1050 00:52:29.079 --> 00:52:30.039 twenty twenty three. 1051 00:52:30.400 --> 00:52:33.320 Well, it's evident, so she must have not done that, exactly, 1052 00:52:33.480 --> 00:52:38.840 she must have not. Are you claiming you did all 1053 00:52:38.880 --> 00:52:46.199 of that and they still turned you down? Yes, you 1054 00:52:46.480 --> 00:52:48.880 actually submitted everything they asked for. 1055 00:52:50.079 --> 00:52:54.079 We submitted everything they asked for. What the application? And 1056 00:52:54.119 --> 00:52:57.039 then they told us that we were missing documents? And 1057 00:52:57.079 --> 00:52:58.360 then we were asking what's done? 1058 00:52:58.480 --> 00:53:00.440 What did they say? Hold on, hold on, don't don't, 1059 00:53:00.519 --> 00:53:02.679 don't go over that. What were you missing? 1060 00:53:04.960 --> 00:53:07.320 I'm not one hundred percent sure they told my mom 1061 00:53:07.400 --> 00:53:09.599 that she was missing some Can. 1062 00:53:09.519 --> 00:53:12.679 We talk to your mom? 1063 00:53:12.719 --> 00:53:13.360 You can call her? 1064 00:53:15.039 --> 00:53:18.559 Yeah, we want to. Hey, Brad, just can you weigh 1065 00:53:18.639 --> 00:53:21.480 in on these kinds of cases and where they go 1066 00:53:21.599 --> 00:53:25.039 and what what is your overall impression? You've heard as 1067 00:53:25.119 --> 00:53:25.880 much as we did. 1068 00:53:26.320 --> 00:53:28.599 Yeah, the city is do have the right to regulate 1069 00:53:29.079 --> 00:53:33.519 term rentals in their jurisdictions, and they can require licensing, 1070 00:53:33.679 --> 00:53:35.639 and they can have requirements. 1071 00:53:35.199 --> 00:53:36.239 To get those licenses. 1072 00:53:36.360 --> 00:53:38.079 And you basically have to follow the steps. 1073 00:53:41.039 --> 00:53:45.840 I mean, that's it in a nutshell, isn't it. I mean, really, 1074 00:53:46.360 --> 00:53:49.000 if they're saying she didn't, she says she did. I mean, 1075 00:53:49.519 --> 00:53:53.360 so whether she I'm gonna I'm gonna lean towards she 1076 00:53:53.440 --> 00:53:56.679 probably didn't. Not because I'm against you, Bethel, but because 1077 00:53:56.679 --> 00:53:59.760 I don't think the city has a reason to single 1078 00:53:59.800 --> 00:54:04.639 you out. Brent.

It's 1099 00:55:29.199 --> 00:55:30.320 not a walk in the park. 1100 00:55:30.800 --> 00:55:33.639 No, there's a lot too. There's one of the things 1101 00:55:33.679 --> 00:55:35.679 I did want to ask her. Since she's still up, 1102 00:55:35.679 --> 00:55:38.480 we can't get her mom, but did you were you 1103 00:55:38.519 --> 00:55:41.079 guys paying like the sales tax? 1104 00:55:41.159 --> 00:55:42.960 And did you pay all that on time? 1105 00:55:43.079 --> 00:55:45.760 I mean, there is so many things required to keep 1106 00:55:45.800 --> 00:55:49.320 and maintain this license. I mean it's it's like operating 1107 00:55:49.360 --> 00:55:51.599 a business. 1108 00:55:51.719 --> 00:55:54.039 I mean we kept up with all the fees, all 1109 00:55:54.039 --> 00:55:57.440 the home Association sees, all the taxes that we need 1110 00:55:57.480 --> 00:55:59.159 to do. We kept up with everything. 1111 00:55:59.440 --> 00:56:01.800 What we really got to figure out time is what 1112 00:56:01.840 --> 00:56:04.400 were they missing if they denied the packet? 1113 00:56:04.800 --> 00:56:05.119 Why? 1114 00:56:05.239 --> 00:56:07.199 I mean, that's what we have to know is why 1115 00:56:07.239 --> 00:56:10.159 did they deny it? I mean you have not think 1116 00:56:10.280 --> 00:56:10.800 they did not. 1117 00:56:11.159 --> 00:56:14.199 I think I think they did not submit everything I 1118 00:56:14.280 --> 00:56:17.519 think it's that simple. I think that she looks, she 1119 00:56:18.159 --> 00:56:20.400 says her mom took care of it, so it could 1120 00:56:20.400 --> 00:56:23.000 be your mom didn't do it all. I mean, there 1121 00:56:23.000 --> 00:56:25.199 would be no reason for them to say, hey, let's 1122 00:56:25.199 --> 00:56:28.880 not grandfather this one in. It's one too many. It 1123 00:56:28.920 --> 00:56:29.960 doesn't make sense to me. 1124 00:56:30.840 --> 00:56:34.239 But see, you know, I didn't want to say I 1125 00:56:34.280 --> 00:56:37.400 don't know if this is true with a loan Tree, 1126 00:56:37.440 --> 00:56:41.679 but in Bolder, I know this. It has to be 1127 00:56:42.280 --> 00:56:44.519 the person that's renting it out as a short time 1128 00:56:44.559 --> 00:56:46.960 rental in Bolder has to be the owner of the 1129 00:56:47.000 --> 00:56:50.119 property and has to live there at least six months 1130 00:56:50.159 --> 00:56:52.079 and one day out of the year. It has to 1131 00:56:52.119 --> 00:56:55.679 be their principal residence. You can't simply own a condo 1132 00:56:56.639 --> 00:56:59.480 in Bolder in short term rented unless if you live 1133 00:56:59.559 --> 00:57:03.360 there as your principal residence. So there's one reason, and 1134 00:57:03.440 --> 00:57:05.679 it's got to be deeded in your name. It's got 1135 00:57:05.679 --> 00:57:08.559 to pass all electrical, it's got to pass everything. So 1136 00:57:09.079 --> 00:57:12.199 loan Tree probably has something similar like that that you 1137 00:57:12.239 --> 00:57:14.920 guys didn't qualify for. But unless if we look at 1138 00:57:14.960 --> 00:57:18.000 the app or more importantly, the denial letter, I don't 1139 00:57:18.039 --> 00:57:19.559 even know where we start on this. 1140 00:57:22.199 --> 00:57:27.519 I don't either. I don't, honest to goodness, I just don't. 1141 00:57:28.079 --> 00:57:29.920 I think we have to talk to her mom, and 1142 00:57:29.960 --> 00:57:32.360 her mom's not available, Bethel, do you know where your 1143 00:57:32.360 --> 00:57:34.440 mom might be or can you talk to her first? 1144 00:57:34.519 --> 00:57:37.880 Maybe she's is not picking up a strange number or something. 1145 00:57:38.199 --> 00:57:39.880 I believe I believe she's got a. 1146 00:57:39.840 --> 00:57:43.400 Doctor's appointment right now, And Bethel fits true. You guys 1147 00:57:43.440 --> 00:57:47.760 submitted everything and they're just saying no because they feel 1148 00:57:47.800 --> 00:57:51.119 like it. We'll get personally involved and we'll fight for you. 1149 00:57:51.360 --> 00:57:54.239 We'll get Brad O'Brien involved. But I mean, we've got 1150 00:57:54.239 --> 00:57:56.280 to know what we're up against. I mean, we'd love 1151 00:57:56.320 --> 00:57:58.599 to help you out, but I'm I'm truly afraid this 1152 00:57:58.679 --> 00:58:03.320 stuff wasn't submitted on time or lack of and that's 1153 00:58:03.360 --> 00:58:04.519 what we've got to figure out. 1154 00:58:04.559 --> 00:58:05.360 Before anything. 1155 00:58:06.639 --> 00:58:08.440 I'll get my mom to talk to you guys, so 1156 00:58:08.599 --> 00:58:10.039 you guys can get the full story. 1157 00:58:11.719 --> 00:58:13.440 Thank you, Bethel. Now, by the way, I want to 1158 00:58:13.440 --> 00:58:16.119 ask about the house is this part? Is this a 1159 00:58:16.159 --> 00:58:18.199 house she lives in when she's not renting. 1160 00:58:19.440 --> 00:58:22.480 She owns it, She's been owning it for over twenty years. 1161 00:58:22.519 --> 00:58:25.000 She built it, she lived in the basement to make 1162 00:58:25.039 --> 00:58:30.280 sure that she followed all the rules that are permit it. 1163 00:58:32.079 --> 00:58:34.480 Now has she ever thought about a long term rental? 1164 00:58:34.679 --> 00:58:36.599 I mean, rentals are hot in Lone Tree. 1165 00:58:36.679 --> 00:58:37.119 Right now. 1166 00:58:38.119 --> 00:58:41.039 We tried, we're not really getting any business in that department. 1167 00:58:42.480 --> 00:58:45.920 Really, what kind of a house is it? 1168 00:58:45.920 --> 00:58:47.400 It's a five bedroom. 1169 00:58:48.280 --> 00:58:52.519 Home, five bedroom ranch? Or two story? 1170 00:58:53.960 --> 00:58:56.239 It's two story? 1171 00:58:56.559 --> 00:58:59.800 My god? Is it in a nice neighborhood? 1172 00:59:00.960 --> 00:59:03.280 Very nice, very safe? 1173 00:59:04.119 --> 00:59:08.440 Uh? Man, I'm telling you you find some executive couple 1174 00:59:08.880 --> 00:59:14.119 or some professional people that I mean, I'm not even 1175 00:59:14.320 --> 00:59:17.559 I'm even thinking could you do a long term rental 1176 00:59:18.039 --> 00:59:21.360 with more than one tenant? You know where people you 1177 00:59:21.400 --> 00:59:23.679 know where they have a common area and they have bedrooms. 1178 00:59:24.079 --> 00:59:26.079 I mean, I don't know what they would allow or 1179 00:59:26.119 --> 00:59:28.239 not allow, because that's not a short. 1180 00:59:28.079 --> 00:59:31.239 Term generally speaking. Short term rentals makes so much more 1181 00:59:31.239 --> 00:59:31.760 money though. 1182 00:59:31.760 --> 00:59:35.559 Man. Yeah, but if you mark, if you could have 1183 00:59:36.360 --> 00:59:38.480 let's say there's five bedroom, un let's see have two 1184 00:59:38.559 --> 00:59:41.800 or three tenants sharing that house, or three or maybe 1185 00:59:41.800 --> 00:59:45.199 even four or five. I mean, seriously, if you did 1186 00:59:45.239 --> 00:59:48.880 it the right way, I don't know, man, You know, 1187 00:59:48.960 --> 00:59:52.639 I think they need somebody who thinks creatively on getting 1188 00:59:52.719 --> 00:59:55.320 this thing, because if she has this big house and 1189 00:59:55.360 --> 00:59:59.239 can't do anything with it, she's going to She depended 1190 00:59:59.280 --> 01:00:00.599 on this income, right, Bethel? 1191 01:00:01.719 --> 01:00:04.159 Yeah? 1192 01:00:04.320 --> 01:00:06.960 And did she ever pay sales tax on it? Out 1193 01:00:07.000 --> 01:00:07.719 of curiosity? 1194 01:00:08.840 --> 01:00:11.440 She pays all our taxes. She does everything. She hires 1195 01:00:11.519 --> 01:00:14.000 someone to make sure she gets all our taxes done correctly. 1196 01:00:16.800 --> 01:00:19.239 You know, sales tax is a completely different animal. But 1197 01:00:21.440 --> 01:00:24.840 in any case, here's the deal. What we need to 1198 01:00:24.880 --> 01:00:27.199 do is wait to talk to your mom.

All right, guys, now we get to this discussion. 1219 01:01:43.119 --> 01:01:47.119 What do you think TikTok? I mean, it's a major 1220 01:01:47.199 --> 01:01:51.280 deal that we are outlawing this, and Mark says it's 1221 01:01:51.280 --> 01:01:54.199 because they're getting demographic information about us. 1222 01:01:54.760 --> 01:01:59.280 Do you wow, it's it's not Timy, it's Red China, Tom, 1223 01:01:59.320 --> 01:02:00.920 that's who owns. 1224 01:02:01.840 --> 01:02:03.960 No, no, I get it. But well, first of all, 1225 01:02:04.000 --> 01:02:05.880 the owner says he's independent. 1226 01:02:06.079 --> 01:02:09.599 There's no one independent in China that that just everybody knows. 1227 01:02:09.800 --> 01:02:13.559 There's not one business in China that the Chinese government 1228 01:02:13.639 --> 01:02:15.239 doesn't have full access to everything. 1229 01:02:19.719 --> 01:02:26.719 Okay, So what happens now? Didn't they start some kind 1230 01:02:26.719 --> 01:02:31.159 of a new form, some kind of a new service altogether? 1231 01:02:31.280 --> 01:02:33.480 I thought, first of all, it's still up, it's still 1232 01:02:33.559 --> 01:02:35.519 up right now? And Trump is saying he's going to 1233 01:02:35.599 --> 01:02:39.039 do some form of an executive order, uh, to keep 1234 01:02:39.079 --> 01:02:39.400 it up. 1235 01:02:39.519 --> 01:02:43.360 Does he not believe in does he not believe in it? No? 1236 01:02:43.679 --> 01:02:46.880 Actually he's the opposite. No, he's the opposite. That's what 1237 01:02:46.920 --> 01:02:50.960 I thought. I would think Musk is too, the opposite, 1238 01:02:51.159 --> 01:02:55.360 meaning that they don't believe in banning stuff right in general, 1239 01:02:58.159 --> 01:03:01.519 I mean, what do you think? I mean, I think 1240 01:03:01.559 --> 01:03:04.760 that that's their main that's their main claim to fame. 1241 01:03:04.960 --> 01:03:07.519 Well, I don't know how Elon thinks, Cause with Elon, 1242 01:03:07.639 --> 01:03:10.280 I mean in a way, I'm not saying that's up 1243 01:03:10.320 --> 01:03:12.920 against Twitter. I mean they're completely different in a lot 1244 01:03:12.920 --> 01:03:14.559 of ways. But I mean it is I would assume 1245 01:03:14.599 --> 01:03:18.000 it's some form of advertising competition. But you do got 1246 01:03:18.000 --> 01:03:21.159 to remember there is a big freaking deal when China 1247 01:03:21.199 --> 01:03:22.639 has accessed all that data. 1248 01:03:22.679 --> 01:03:26.480 Man, it's just crazy. It's crazy. But are we naive 1249 01:03:26.599 --> 01:03:28.800 to think that they can't get it? In another way? 1250 01:03:29.039 --> 01:03:32.679 You can subscribe to demographic data. You're missing it though, 1251 01:03:32.679 --> 01:03:34.039 are you? You're missing it? 1252 01:03:34.079 --> 01:03:37.400 Then they can advertise what they want to happen. Oh, 1253 01:03:37.519 --> 01:03:41.239 your government is screwing you. They're doing inside stuff, taking 1254 01:03:41.280 --> 01:03:45.519 your money, taking your taxes. They can do campaigns targeted 1255 01:03:45.559 --> 01:03:48.800 to hundreds of millions of people to try to get 1256 01:03:48.840 --> 01:03:52.199 through their messaging during a wartime if we actually went 1257 01:03:52.239 --> 01:03:52.760 to war. 1258 01:03:52.599 --> 01:03:55.840 With it on a Facebook account and do that mark, No, 1259 01:03:55.960 --> 01:03:56.400 they can't. 1260 01:03:56.559 --> 01:03:59.559 They don't have access to the back end data of Facebook. 1261 01:03:59.599 --> 01:04:02.039 They don't have it. They don't know every other app 1262 01:04:02.079 --> 01:04:06.119 you use on your phone. By advertising on Facebook, they 1263 01:04:06.199 --> 01:04:10.800 have access to all the data. 1264 01:04:11.679 --> 01:04:14.119 What kind of data do they get on TikTok people? 1265 01:04:15.440 --> 01:04:16.760 I don't know what they don't get? 1266 01:04:19.320 --> 01:04:22.840 Well, like where you work, where your websites are, what 1267 01:04:23.039 --> 01:04:28.400 phone company you have, what electric company you have, all 1268 01:04:28.440 --> 01:04:32.320 your contacts, everybody you deal with, are you republican Democrat? 1269 01:04:32.639 --> 01:04:36.559 All your texts? Possibly anything? Anything? 1270 01:04:39.760 --> 01:04:42.719 I want to know how people think about it. Morons 1271 01:04:42.840 --> 01:04:45.280 weigh in on it, call me, I really do I 1272 01:04:46.239 --> 01:04:52.199 just it just seems it just seems counterproductive. Look at 1273 01:04:52.239 --> 01:04:54.719 I'm not for the communist government, but if they know 1274 01:04:54.800 --> 01:04:59.639 demographics and they do campaigns, that's freedom of expression and 1275 01:04:59.639 --> 01:05:00.679 freedom of speech. 1276 01:05:02.239 --> 01:05:06.719 I mean, okay, so China and even China, who's our adversary, 1277 01:05:06.840 --> 01:05:14.039 should have freedom of speech like a citizen.

I believe everyone needs to look at 1330 01:08:05.679 --> 01:08:10.440 financing nowadays, the finances nowadays anyway. So so back to 1331 01:08:10.480 --> 01:08:15.599 the TikTok red TikTok agreement. Before you get an account, 1332 01:08:15.840 --> 01:08:20.960 they have access to everything on your phone, bank accounts, passwords, 1333 01:08:21.000 --> 01:08:28.159 what social security numbers, what. Joe Rogan actually covered this 1334 01:08:28.199 --> 01:08:35.159 on this podcasts everything. Here's what I everything now. I 1335 01:08:35.279 --> 01:08:38.760 did some research here, not really, you know, chat did 1336 01:08:38.760 --> 01:08:42.960 the research. Here's what it says. The government's concerns about 1337 01:08:42.960 --> 01:08:49.439 TikTok stem from national security risks focusing on the ownership 1338 01:08:49.880 --> 01:08:53.880 its owner. It's owned by Byte Dance. But what Byte 1339 01:08:53.960 --> 01:09:00.159 Dance and other companies in China agree to is that 1340 01:09:00.920 --> 01:09:03.840 this is what the Chinese government, by the way, requires 1341 01:09:03.960 --> 01:09:13.720 all companies. China's National Intelligence law requires all Chinese organizations, businesses, 1342 01:09:14.119 --> 01:09:22.600 and citizens to cooperate and submit to the government for 1343 01:09:22.760 --> 01:09:26.960 their intelligence work. Listen to this. This is actually part 1344 01:09:27.399 --> 01:09:28.920 of the constant Well, I don't know if you call 1345 01:09:28.960 --> 01:09:33.760 it a constitution, but the Chinese government. This raises concerns 1346 01:09:34.680 --> 01:09:38.680 that byte edance could be forced to hand over data. 1347 01:09:38.840 --> 01:09:44.680 Think about that potential for censorship and propaganda. They have 1348 01:09:44.720 --> 01:09:49.680 a concern that it could be manipulated. And then, like 1349 01:09:49.720 --> 01:09:52.920 you said, Mark, but here's the other thing. They're gathering 1350 01:09:52.960 --> 01:09:59.680 information on people in the government itself and stupid people 1351 01:09:59.720 --> 01:10:03.680 of the counts that aren't supposed to Plus, younger generations 1352 01:10:04.199 --> 01:10:12.079 are being influenced, and they're being influenced politically. Okay, then 1353 01:10:12.119 --> 01:10:16.640 they're saying that it's not just demographic information they're gathering, 1354 01:10:17.039 --> 01:10:21.800 they're trapping. Listen to this, locations of high value individuals, 1355 01:10:22.439 --> 01:10:29.680 profiling individuals, and turning people into assets for espionage and blackmail. 1356 01:10:30.079 --> 01:10:35.079 They have had people who have recruited through TikTok. Do 1357 01:10:35.119 --> 01:10:37.840 you believe that, Well, absolutely, think about it. 1358 01:10:37.880 --> 01:10:40.840 They have some kid, they got all his information, they 1359 01:10:40.920 --> 01:10:43.760 got some video of them that basically the phone took 1360 01:10:44.039 --> 01:10:47.000 of him doing things that are you know, teenagers do 1361 01:10:47.119 --> 01:10:49.239 if you will, And then all of a sudden they 1362 01:10:49.279 --> 01:10:51.239 reach out to him to ask him for a favor 1363 01:10:51.399 --> 01:10:51.840 or else. 1364 01:10:54.439 --> 01:11:00.199 Man, that's incredible, all right, three h three seven one 1365 01:11:00.279 --> 01:11:03.600 three talk three all three seven one three eight two 1366 01:11:03.640 --> 01:11:07.680 five five. This idiot just won't leave this at the door. 1367 01:11:08.920 --> 01:11:10.880 I mean, I have to go to the door, go 1368 01:11:10.960 --> 01:11:15.079 get your pizza. No, it's probably some important stuff. Hold on, 1369 01:11:15.239 --> 01:11:16.159 just take nut. 1370 01:11:16.199 --> 01:11:16.760 I got to it. 1371 01:11:17.239 --> 01:11:20.520 He keeps ringing, three oh three seven. Well, listen, we 1372 01:11:20.560 --> 01:11:24.000 got lines open. We need some car questions today. I 1373 01:11:24.119 --> 01:11:28.640 realize it's January and everybody's getting back to moving and grooving. 1374 01:11:29.119 --> 01:11:31.279 But we've got two car experts here. Maybe you want 1375 01:11:31.279 --> 01:11:33.079 to sell a car and need a value of a car. 1376 01:11:33.279 --> 01:11:35.439 Maybe you've got a problem with a car a certain noise. 1377 01:11:35.720 --> 01:11:39.119 I happen to know that, Kevin and Jeff, if you 1378 01:11:39.199 --> 01:11:41.359 call up and make a sound that your car's doing, 1379 01:11:41.760 --> 01:11:44.159 they can identify it nine out of ten times. 1380 01:11:44.359 --> 01:11:45.319 Would you say, that's right? 1381 01:11:45.399 --> 01:11:46.720 I can do it ten out of ten times. 1382 01:11:46.760 --> 01:11:48.640 Ten At ten times ten out. 1383 01:11:48.479 --> 01:11:50.079 Of ten, that's always the same thing. 1384 01:11:50.319 --> 01:11:52.319 It's some moron on the other side of the freaking 1385 01:11:52.359 --> 01:11:53.560 phone making noises. 1386 01:11:53.680 --> 01:11:57.479 He's hey, guys, are there any like tips for these 1387 01:11:57.479 --> 01:11:58.399 sub zero tempts. 1388 01:11:58.399 --> 01:12:00.159 Well, about to get a question, but you were going 1389 01:12:00.199 --> 01:12:02.720 to ask Jeff too, Mark, remember about the TCM in that. 1390 01:12:03.359 --> 01:12:05.760 So one of the things that rapo Key is saying, 1391 01:12:05.760 --> 01:12:07.000 I'm not going to recap. 1392 01:12:06.640 --> 01:12:07.560 The whole story story. 1393 01:12:07.600 --> 01:12:10.359 Hell yeah, but people listening, he drops off a vehicle, 1394 01:12:10.600 --> 01:12:13.560 they sell them a transmission, then they say, hey, it 1395 01:12:13.680 --> 01:12:17.159 also has a bad TCM, and they put the TCM in. 1396 01:12:17.239 --> 01:12:18.279 It's still not working. 1397 01:12:18.600 --> 01:12:21.800 Then they put another transmission in because they figure out 1398 01:12:21.840 --> 01:12:23.640 the first one they sold them was no good. 1399 01:12:23.920 --> 01:12:25.000 Then the vehicle runs. 1400 01:12:25.039 --> 01:12:27.640 Now they're trying to charge them for the TCM and 1401 01:12:27.680 --> 01:12:31.960 the transmission. What they're saying is the TCM took the 1402 01:12:32.039 --> 01:12:34.960 tranny out, or the tran he took the TCM out, 1403 01:12:35.199 --> 01:12:36.119 so they need both. 1404 01:12:36.199 --> 01:12:37.000 Is that possible? 1405 01:12:37.079 --> 01:12:40.680 The TCM can definitely wipe out a transmission and explain 1406 01:12:40.720 --> 01:12:41.960 why though, Joe, you. 1407 01:12:41.960 --> 01:12:45.439 Know, commit wrong commands. Usually it'll be something in the 1408 01:12:45.479 --> 01:12:48.359 form of you know, pressure control. But I mean that 1409 01:12:48.520 --> 01:12:51.079 Toyota went through a huge phase of it for probably 1410 01:12:51.119 --> 01:12:53.920 about a five year stint where we had known codes 1411 01:12:53.960 --> 01:12:55.600 pulled up and you just did even question it it 1412 01:12:55.680 --> 01:12:58.640 needed a TCM when you pulled it up and built it. So, yes, 1413 01:12:58.720 --> 01:13:02.960 TCMs can definitely caused transmission failure the other way around. 1414 01:13:03.880 --> 01:13:07.720 Not very likely, uh so, no, not very likely. 1415 01:13:07.800 --> 01:13:07.960 No. 1416 01:13:08.640 --> 01:13:11.159 So but if they you know, they put transmission in, 1417 01:13:11.199 --> 01:13:14.720 it still wasn't working. Deducted that, Hey, the TCM caused 1418 01:13:14.760 --> 01:13:16.960 the lost failure, then yeah, it's entirely possible. 1419 01:13:17.640 --> 01:13:22.159 So the chain went like this though transmission car was 1420 01:13:22.199 --> 01:13:25.680 still stuck in gear. So it went in originally stuck 1421 01:13:25.680 --> 01:13:29.039 in fourth gear. Then it goes into the shop, sell 1422 01:13:29.079 --> 01:13:33.159 them a transmission. It's stuck in first gear, the new transmission. 1423 01:13:33.399 --> 01:13:35.840 So then they say they need the TCM. Put the 1424 01:13:35.920 --> 01:13:39.399 TCM in, same things, still stuck in first gear. Put 1425 01:13:39.399 --> 01:13:42.760 the new transmission in. Everything works fine. So how would 1426 01:13:42.800 --> 01:13:46.159 you possibly ever know if it needed the TCM? 1427 01:13:46.239 --> 01:13:48.439 Two failure point too far down the pike, and I'm sure. 1428 01:13:48.279 --> 01:13:50.119 All those parts and you don't you don't know. 1429 01:13:50.760 --> 01:13:53.119 But I mean, the likelihood is it was the transmission 1430 01:13:53.119 --> 01:13:56.159 the whole time they chased their tails on it. So 1431 01:13:56.279 --> 01:13:57.720 but once they put that thing in the car, it 1432 01:13:57.760 --> 01:13:59.159 belongs to them. 1433 01:13:59.520 --> 01:14:02.720 Yeah, I mean, yeah, but I hope they do something good. 1434 01:14:02.760 --> 01:14:05.439 I mean, it's a deal in Doug Store you know what. 1435 01:14:05.520 --> 01:14:07.920 I hope they just do what's right if they truly 1436 01:14:08.000 --> 01:14:11.000 needed one. But they had the guy's vehicle three months too, 1437 01:14:11.319 --> 01:14:12.359 which is not cool. 1438 01:14:12.439 --> 01:14:15.079 Man, three months they had this and they couldn't get 1439 01:14:15.079 --> 01:14:15.560 it fixed. 1440 01:14:15.720 --> 01:14:17.319 And a lot of that time it was because the 1441 01:14:17.359 --> 01:14:21.119 original transmission they diagnosed. So once again, I don't know 1442 01:14:21.159 --> 01:14:23.199 if it needed both, Tom, I don't know if it 1443 01:14:23.279 --> 01:14:25.800 needed just a transmission, And I don't know. 1444 01:14:25.800 --> 01:14:30.119 If I want to know what happens, let's just ask 1445 01:14:30.199 --> 01:14:35.560 this bottom line, what happens if you put in something 1446 01:14:35.600 --> 01:14:37.600 it didn't need, Well, how do you guys handle it? 1447 01:14:37.680 --> 01:14:38.199 You eat it? 1448 01:14:38.680 --> 01:14:39.760 Yeah, you eat it right? 1449 01:14:42.159 --> 01:14:44.079 Or if you didn't send it back yet, you put 1450 01:14:44.119 --> 01:14:45.119 in the original part. 1451 01:14:45.199 --> 01:14:45.359 Yeah. 1452 01:14:45.359 --> 01:14:47.159 I mean sometimes there's times where you can you might 1453 01:14:47.159 --> 01:14:49.560 be able to recover that part. But if you can't, 1454 01:14:49.600 --> 01:14:51.479 I mean, that's not the customer's responsibility. 1455 01:14:51.680 --> 01:14:52.439 No, not at all. 1456 01:14:55.000 --> 01:14:59.319 Okay, I'm glad to hear that now. But sometimes though, 1457 01:14:59.720 --> 01:15:00.560 hold on, real cock. 1458 01:15:00.640 --> 01:15:04.000 Suzanne had a great question for him too, which was 1459 01:15:04.039 --> 01:15:05.600 what Suzanne. 1460 01:15:05.199 --> 01:15:08.439 Just with the sub zero temps, any tips with taking 1461 01:15:08.479 --> 01:15:09.279 care of your car. 1462 01:15:10.880 --> 01:15:13.840 With the cold temps like we're getting here, warming it 1463 01:15:13.920 --> 01:15:14.520 up a little. 1464 01:15:14.279 --> 01:15:15.239 Bit will definitely help it. 1465 01:15:15.279 --> 01:15:17.399 But I mean, as far as you know, with the 1466 01:15:17.399 --> 01:15:20.319 cold tamps driving down the road, your cooling system you 1467 01:15:20.359 --> 01:15:22.920 can actually not work as efficiently as you want it to. 1468 01:15:23.039 --> 01:15:24.399 In other words, you're not going to get heat in 1469 01:15:24.439 --> 01:15:24.840 the cabin. 1470 01:15:25.239 --> 01:15:27.199 So you know, even just taking a piece of cardboard 1471 01:15:27.239 --> 01:15:29.319 or chipboard and zip zip tie that thing to the 1472 01:15:29.359 --> 01:15:31.000 front of your grill to block some of that cold 1473 01:15:31.000 --> 01:15:33.560 air from coming in, we'll actually help. 1474 01:15:33.399 --> 01:15:33.840 You out there. 1475 01:15:33.880 --> 01:15:34.199 Is there. 1476 01:15:34.279 --> 01:15:36.680 This sounds crazy, and I don't know if you guys 1477 01:15:36.720 --> 01:15:39.239 ever been there, but I had windshield washer fluid put 1478 01:15:39.239 --> 01:15:43.239 in at Walmart one time. This is years ago, but 1479 01:15:43.399 --> 01:15:46.199 up in Rocky Ford, and we were picking up one 1480 01:15:46.199 --> 01:15:49.159 of our Doberman's, a little puppy. So we we get 1481 01:15:49.239 --> 01:15:52.720 up there, I'm totally out. It's snowing like crazy, it's slushy. 1482 01:15:52.760 --> 01:15:54.359 I got to get this stuff and it was freezing. 1483 01:15:54.680 --> 01:15:57.439 They put stuff in that was probably maybe good down 1484 01:15:57.439 --> 01:16:01.079 to zero but not negative ten, and it froze and 1485 01:16:01.159 --> 01:16:03.279 I couldn't use it at all. So we know there's 1486 01:16:03.319 --> 01:16:07.119 a freezing point on most of the windshield washer stuff. 1487 01:16:07.119 --> 01:16:07.680 What is that? 1488 01:16:07.720 --> 01:16:11.239 But beyond that, is there cooling out there that will 1489 01:16:11.279 --> 01:16:14.840 freeze it like negative ten or fifteen or that doesn't happen. 1490 01:16:15.119 --> 01:16:18.640 That's not the coolint How about transmission fluid, any other fluids. 1491 01:16:18.680 --> 01:16:20.640 No, I mean I was going to say longer warm 1492 01:16:20.720 --> 01:16:22.399 things up, and you know when poor rates are going 1493 01:16:22.479 --> 01:16:24.479 to move a little slower. That's why doing things like 1494 01:16:24.560 --> 01:16:26.039 warming it up before you take office, and. 1495 01:16:26.960 --> 01:16:29.319 To warm it up. No, let it sit there in idle, 1496 01:16:29.399 --> 01:16:30.399 Let it take its time. 1497 01:16:32.079 --> 01:16:34.479 It's so people should do what. Let it warm up, 1498 01:16:34.600 --> 01:16:35.680 make sure you have cooling. 1499 01:16:36.239 --> 01:16:38.159 If you do have to fill your washer fluid. They 1500 01:16:38.159 --> 01:16:40.439 do make some that it goes to a lower temperature. 1501 01:16:40.439 --> 01:16:43.399 Tip so you can get different fluid in Texas than 1502 01:16:43.439 --> 01:16:43.920 they do here. 1503 01:16:44.159 --> 01:16:45.760 Yeah, because in Texas it's water. 1504 01:16:45.880 --> 01:16:47.439 They're thirty two degrees and it's plod. 1505 01:16:47.560 --> 01:16:49.680 Hawaii it probably legitimately is water. 1506 01:16:49.760 --> 01:16:52.560 Yeah, it's alcohol, but it's just a lower concentrate. 1507 01:16:53.199 --> 01:16:55.680 How about if you have summer stuff in there now 1508 01:16:55.720 --> 01:16:58.159 and you're half full, is there stuff you can add. 1509 01:16:58.039 --> 01:16:59.439 To mixing up this? Fine? 1510 01:16:59.520 --> 01:17:00.359 Yeah? 1511 01:17:00.560 --> 01:17:02.399 So you know, if you have a diesel, you know, 1512 01:17:02.560 --> 01:17:04.760 probably it's a good idea to pour on a bottle 1513 01:17:04.760 --> 01:17:09.359 of Alliant or some standard im lower that gelling point. 1514 01:17:09.239 --> 01:17:10.359 To the new diesels. 1515 01:17:10.439 --> 01:17:12.840 I mean stuff made in the last four years. Do 1516 01:17:12.920 --> 01:17:14.840 you still have to plug him in in really bad 1517 01:17:14.840 --> 01:17:15.960 weather to get him to start? 1518 01:17:16.039 --> 01:17:17.840 You know, you're better off if you do, but you 1519 01:17:18.399 --> 01:17:21.560 don't have to know. Ok. Yeah, it'll definitely start easier 1520 01:17:21.600 --> 01:17:23.279 if they're warmed up, if you got that block heater 1521 01:17:23.359 --> 01:17:23.720 turned on. 1522 01:17:24.840 --> 01:17:26.720 The only thing I well, and that's not true are 1523 01:17:26.920 --> 01:17:31.000 r V is diesel. But we wouldn't use it this time. 1524 01:17:31.039 --> 01:17:33.479 But it's always plugged in and it's always got an 1525 01:17:33.479 --> 01:17:37.239 engine block heater built in. But my John Deere tractor, 1526 01:17:37.800 --> 01:17:40.359 that's diesel. And what I've learned about that over four 1527 01:17:40.399 --> 01:17:43.239 or five years in Franktown. When he gets that cold, man, 1528 01:17:43.640 --> 01:17:45.720 I'll wait for those glow plugs. But there's been a 1529 01:17:45.720 --> 01:17:48.159 couple of times I gotta pop a little booster on. 1530 01:17:48.479 --> 01:17:50.279 You would think the battery is going bad, but I 1531 01:17:50.319 --> 01:17:52.840 don't think so, because it's only at that negative turning 1532 01:17:52.960 --> 01:17:53.600 so hard. 1533 01:17:53.720 --> 01:18:00.920 Yeah, God, so guys. Bottom line is when it comes 1534 01:18:00.960 --> 01:18:05.000 to parts, when do you how do you even know 1535 01:18:05.159 --> 01:18:09.199 what if you did replace it and maybe it did 1536 01:18:09.319 --> 01:18:13.600 need it and it didn't the old ones gone, you 1537 01:18:13.600 --> 01:18:18.600 you can't necessarily know that. You know what I'm saying 1538 01:18:18.880 --> 01:18:20.600 you can't tell if you needed it. 1539 01:18:20.600 --> 01:18:23.079 It can be a challenge, yes, and then the vice 1540 01:18:23.239 --> 01:18:25.439 versa happens too because we get bad parts, so you 1541 01:18:25.479 --> 01:18:29.119 replace one and it doesn't fix it. You screw it. 1542 01:18:29.159 --> 01:18:31.439 So you think you screwed up by putting a transmission 1543 01:18:31.479 --> 01:18:34.319 like Kia did and find out that, you know, all 1544 01:18:34.359 --> 01:18:35.920 in all, it is just a bad part. So yeah, 1545 01:18:36.199 --> 01:18:38.159 parts are there's a challenge, it really is. 1546 01:18:38.199 --> 01:18:40.840 And quality control lately, for probably the last couple of 1547 01:18:40.880 --> 01:18:42.960 three years, has gone way down the tubes. 1548 01:18:43.239 --> 01:18:43.520 Yep? 1549 01:18:45.279 --> 01:18:47.640 Is that because they've been out forcing to different places. 1550 01:18:47.680 --> 01:18:49.720 I mean, why would quality go down so far? 1551 01:18:50.439 --> 01:18:54.279 You know, I don't know if it's everybody's short on staff, 1552 01:18:54.720 --> 01:18:56.880 but yeah, I mean we were talking about it a 1553 01:18:56.880 --> 01:18:59.279 couple of weeks ago. I had a Dodge truck three times, 1554 01:18:59.319 --> 01:19:01.680 I've warranted solenoid body and the thing, and we're getting 1555 01:19:02.000 --> 01:19:03.039 straight from Chrysler. 1556 01:19:03.279 --> 01:19:09.079 Oh wow, And okay, So so there's got to be 1557 01:19:09.119 --> 01:19:13.760 a certain amount of trust as well. Let's let's face it. 1558 01:19:13.920 --> 01:19:18.239 I mean, you know, in other words, you you have 1559 01:19:18.399 --> 01:19:24.680 somebody tell you something and you decide if in fact 1560 01:19:25.000 --> 01:19:28.760 it's going to work or not. If it doesn't work, 1561 01:19:29.000 --> 01:19:31.159 it's up to the shop to be honorable on that, 1562 01:19:31.760 --> 01:19:36.680 or it's up to I don't know. Sometimes think you know, guys, 1563 01:19:36.680 --> 01:19:40.520 here's another thing we've said before. Sometimes you need loads 1564 01:19:40.520 --> 01:19:43.359 of things, not just one thing, right. 1565 01:19:43.760 --> 01:19:46.640 No, definitely true, like you fix one of it. 1566 01:19:47.119 --> 01:19:49.800 And it's not your fault. No, and it's not your 1567 01:19:49.840 --> 01:19:53.720 fault that you know it might need one thing, I mean, 1568 01:19:53.760 --> 01:19:57.600 excuse me, multiple things, But people sometimes think, well, you 1569 01:19:57.760 --> 01:20:01.119 might be putting us together, know what I'm saying, How 1570 01:20:01.159 --> 01:20:03.199 do we really know we need all that? What do 1571 01:20:03.279 --> 01:20:05.640 you do in that case? I mean to me, it's 1572 01:20:05.680 --> 01:20:11.640 a matter of it's a matter of trust. There's got 1573 01:20:11.680 --> 01:20:12.920 to be a certain amount of trust. 1574 01:20:14.119 --> 01:20:16.439 Rights got to be open and honest and just explain 1575 01:20:16.560 --> 01:20:18.680 as best you can and show them what's going on. 1576 01:20:19.520 --> 01:20:21.119 That's all you can do, exactly. 1577 01:20:21.279 --> 01:20:24.600 Yep, all right, three O three seven one three eight 1578 01:20:24.640 --> 01:20:27.960 two five.

You were under warranty, 1643 01:23:38.920 --> 01:23:42.479 and I said, well, that was four years ago. He said, hey, there's. 1644 01:23:42.279 --> 01:23:43.199 No time limit on it. 1645 01:23:44.920 --> 01:23:48.800 Our warranty lasts for three years or thirty six thousand miles, 1646 01:23:48.800 --> 01:23:52.359 whichever comes first. That's literally on their website. 1647 01:23:52.760 --> 01:23:56.880 Well, call the Christian Brothers right by my house. I'm 1648 01:23:57.000 --> 01:24:01.960 I'm uh uh, don't exactly they're they're on balls and 1649 01:24:02.000 --> 01:24:04.840 sims and the guy, I'll tell you, Chris, you just 1650 01:24:04.920 --> 01:24:05.399 on the phone. 1651 01:24:05.439 --> 01:24:05.680 I had. 1652 01:24:06.039 --> 01:24:08.079 I had to verify it because I didn't quite remember 1653 01:24:08.079 --> 01:24:12.079 any exact details, and he just told me again except 1654 01:24:12.079 --> 01:24:15.560 that it used to be twenty four thousand miles and 1655 01:24:15.800 --> 01:24:16.720 unlimited time. 1656 01:24:17.000 --> 01:24:20.520 Sure, and there's a lot of parts around the town 1657 01:24:20.600 --> 01:24:23.439 or lifetime warranty too. Most of the water pumps we 1658 01:24:23.439 --> 01:24:26.159 put on our lifetime, most of the alternators or lifetime. 1659 01:24:26.479 --> 01:24:28.119 So yeah, lifetime's not unusual. 1660 01:24:28.840 --> 01:24:30.920 Yeah, I just well, I don't know, man, maybe not, 1661 01:24:31.319 --> 01:24:34.680 but it to me for somebody that's retired. And I 1662 01:24:34.800 --> 01:24:37.279 used to drive a lot of miles, okay, I mean 1663 01:24:37.319 --> 01:24:41.039 I was a professional truck driver's sohone a lot of miles. 1664 01:24:41.239 --> 01:24:43.520 But I don't drive that many miles now. So now 1665 01:24:43.840 --> 01:24:47.000 that warranty really shines in my eyes. I don't care 1666 01:24:47.039 --> 01:24:49.840 about his twenty four thousand or trotter or whatever the 1667 01:24:49.880 --> 01:24:51.960 mile it is, because I'm not going to get there 1668 01:24:51.960 --> 01:24:52.119 with it. 1669 01:24:52.239 --> 01:24:54.840 Yeah yeah, okay, I. 1670 01:24:54.800 --> 01:24:56.479 Just I didn't want to let you know that. And 1671 01:24:56.640 --> 01:24:59.720 it was Christian Brothers. You're looking at Christian Brother's side. 1672 01:25:00.079 --> 01:25:02.279 This is the one on sims and bowls. 1673 01:25:02.359 --> 01:25:04.680 Well, they're all loaned down.

I got one 1683 01:25:28.439 --> 01:25:30.279 hundred and eighty one thousand miles on it. 1684 01:25:30.600 --> 01:25:34.119 Yeah, smell, I smell a weird story. 1685 01:25:35.079 --> 01:25:36.159 It's not a weird. 1686 01:25:37.439 --> 01:25:50.319 I got it.

Somebody texted me and said, what 1714 01:27:41.159 --> 01:27:44.079 about the mold mitigation? Do they have to come to 1715 01:27:44.119 --> 01:27:47.720 the house. Yes, they have these tests. They do. They 1716 01:27:47.720 --> 01:27:50.560 don't have you do them. They do them and the mitigation. 1717 01:27:50.760 --> 01:27:54.359 Here's the important part though, they're honest about it. Okay, 1718 01:27:54.399 --> 01:27:57.800 that's the important part. Genesis Tootalexteriors dot com. And then 1719 01:27:57.840 --> 01:28:03.079 I have a text here for Kevin. Kevin, do you 1720 01:28:03.279 --> 01:28:07.560 offer tow services to your facility if they can't drive 1721 01:28:07.600 --> 01:28:08.039 the car? 1722 01:28:08.880 --> 01:28:13.319 Yeah, we have a very large toe service we use. Yeah. Yeah, 1723 01:28:13.319 --> 01:28:14.119 they're all over Denver. 1724 01:28:14.199 --> 01:28:19.279 Okay, okay, that's good. Three oh three seven one three 1725 01:28:19.399 --> 01:28:25.640 two five five Jeff Fick. Is there a core value 1726 01:28:25.760 --> 01:28:29.840 given to transmissions when you remove in exchange? 1727 01:28:30.159 --> 01:28:32.760 Almost one hundred percent of the time. There are exceptions, 1728 01:28:32.800 --> 01:28:35.159 but as a general rule, yes, there is. 1729 01:28:36.760 --> 01:28:39.439 They want to know if they want to keep the core. 1730 01:28:39.760 --> 01:28:41.600 Does that make a big difference in the price. 1731 01:28:41.720 --> 01:28:45.359 It really depends on what your unit is. You know, 1732 01:28:45.600 --> 01:28:47.119 some of them are only a few hundred bucks. Some 1733 01:28:47.199 --> 01:28:48.760 of them can be a couple of thousand. 1734 01:28:49.960 --> 01:28:54.520 Okay, wow. And why is that? Because they use them 1735 01:28:54.560 --> 01:28:56.079 to do the next transmission? Right? 1736 01:28:56.159 --> 01:28:59.039 Correct, So it's more of an encouragement to get have 1737 01:28:59.079 --> 01:29:02.840 you return it. They'd rather have the core than have 1738 01:29:02.920 --> 01:29:03.640 the core money. 1739 01:29:05.600 --> 01:29:08.840 Okay, next text. I got this one a while ago 1740 01:29:08.840 --> 01:29:12.560 and I just found it. You guys are always I 1741 01:29:12.560 --> 01:29:17.880 don't think they mean this, are always dissing the DVM 1742 01:29:17.920 --> 01:29:20.800 trans I know they don't mean that DVM transmissions or 1743 01:29:20.800 --> 01:29:24.800 eight what are they? Easy trans Yeah, and I know 1744 01:29:24.880 --> 01:29:27.600 that's what they mean because they said, you know the 1745 01:29:27.640 --> 01:29:32.760 one that has hardly any years. Does that mean to 1746 01:29:32.800 --> 01:29:37.359 avoid them completely? Or are they all bad? What's the story? 1747 01:29:37.520 --> 01:29:39.600 Some are better than others, I mean, particularly when it 1748 01:29:39.640 --> 01:29:42.079 comes to Nissan. You know, we pick on Nissan because 1749 01:29:42.079 --> 01:29:42.680 they aren't. 1750 01:29:42.479 --> 01:29:44.560 Are they Are they going to be the standard? I mean, 1751 01:29:44.640 --> 01:29:46.960 are basically most cars going to them? 1752 01:29:47.560 --> 01:29:50.000 You know, in the passenger vehicle yes, some of the 1753 01:29:50.079 --> 01:29:53.439 smaller crossovers yes, But when you get into the truck market, 1754 01:29:53.520 --> 01:29:55.640 they you know, they haven't been able to prove their 1755 01:29:55.680 --> 01:29:57.279 ability yet in order to introduce them. 1756 01:30:00.520 --> 01:30:03.239 So what would you do if you had one to 1757 01:30:03.359 --> 01:30:05.119 keep it going the longest? 1758 01:30:05.680 --> 01:30:07.520 There's nothing you can do that you wouldn't do to 1759 01:30:08.159 --> 01:30:11.640 a conventional transmission. I mean you just, okay, do a service. 1760 01:30:11.800 --> 01:30:12.479 That's all you can. 1761 01:30:12.560 --> 01:30:15.399 If you treat them both the same, If you treat 1762 01:30:15.439 --> 01:30:17.920 them both the same, I'm asking straight up, will a 1763 01:30:18.000 --> 01:30:19.680 conventional transmission last. 1764 01:30:19.560 --> 01:30:23.840 Longer in most cases? Yes? Okay? 1765 01:30:24.119 --> 01:30:27.079 And why I thought the one would less moving parts 1766 01:30:27.119 --> 01:30:27.680 would last long. 1767 01:30:27.960 --> 01:30:30.439 Well, you know, if they made better parts for him, 1768 01:30:30.520 --> 01:30:33.119 then that might actually work that way. But you know, 1769 01:30:33.840 --> 01:30:36.079 either the technology is not there at the engineering level 1770 01:30:36.239 --> 01:30:39.000 or the profitability is not in there in order to 1771 01:30:39.560 --> 01:30:40.720 make them durable up to state. 1772 01:30:43.760 --> 01:30:47.920 So bottom line is is that you know, they they'll 1773 01:30:48.720 --> 01:30:53.159 they're not all failures. But if you had your choice, 1774 01:30:53.680 --> 01:30:55.000 you would go with conventional. 1775 01:30:55.119 --> 01:30:56.600 I would. 1776 01:30:57.479 --> 01:31:03.039 Wow. Okay, I mean, listen, this is a guy who 1777 01:31:03.039 --> 01:31:08.279 builds now of the those CVTs, which ones are the best. 1778 01:31:08.319 --> 01:31:09.079 Probably Suber. 1779 01:31:09.680 --> 01:31:12.840 They're actually pretty big beefy parts that are inside there. 1780 01:31:14.399 --> 01:31:16.199 We don't see a whole lot of failures in them. 1781 01:31:16.199 --> 01:31:20.039 I've probably replaced two or three. The rest of the time, 1782 01:31:20.039 --> 01:31:22.479 it's usually doing voild bodies and or cork converters. 1783 01:31:23.880 --> 01:31:25.520 How do you know if your car has a CBT? 1784 01:31:25.640 --> 01:31:27.800 How do you even know? Does it say on the 1785 01:31:27.840 --> 01:31:30.239 sticker CBT? I mean really, how do you know? 1786 01:31:30.840 --> 01:31:32.039 Well, because it doesn't shift. 1787 01:31:32.079 --> 01:31:34.760 I mean that you'll have when you're taking off, It'll 1788 01:31:34.800 --> 01:31:37.119 just hold those RPMs and you'll you'll watch the tackle 1789 01:31:37.199 --> 01:31:40.239 up and down as the pulleye expand or constrict. But 1790 01:31:40.439 --> 01:31:41.680 you're not gonna have a shrift. 1791 01:31:42.000 --> 01:31:45.000 I mean, I guess we can just go online and research. 1792 01:31:45.039 --> 01:31:48.800 But what I'm saying is is that you just asked, 1793 01:31:48.800 --> 01:31:51.319 does that have a CVT transmission or something? I don't know. 1794 01:31:51.399 --> 01:31:53.560 Yeh, as long as your dealer knows what he's talking about. Yeah, 1795 01:31:53.560 --> 01:31:55.399 because most people can't they don't know. 1796 01:31:58.000 --> 01:32:00.159 They really don't know. They don't the same with if 1797 01:32:00.159 --> 01:32:02.399 it has a chain or a belt, exact timing chain 1798 01:32:02.479 --> 01:32:02.960 or a belt. 1799 01:32:03.000 --> 01:32:04.920 I mean, yep, and. 1800 01:32:06.479 --> 01:32:10.239 Okay, So what's the biggest danger with a CBT Is 1801 01:32:10.279 --> 01:32:13.520 it self adjusting? Does it have intelligence? Does it have 1802 01:32:13.560 --> 01:32:15.079 a control module? What about? 1803 01:32:15.560 --> 01:32:18.439 I mean, all vehicles today are pretty intelligent, so they 1804 01:32:18.479 --> 01:32:21.479 do adapt for wear and tear to some extent that 1805 01:32:21.560 --> 01:32:25.119 leaven adapt to a particular driver. You know, Kevin might 1806 01:32:25.159 --> 01:32:27.119 have a timid foot, and you know whereas I drive 1807 01:32:27.399 --> 01:32:30.239 with my foot down all the time, the computer will 1808 01:32:30.279 --> 01:32:32.439 learn that. That's why occasionally, you know, if you let 1809 01:32:32.479 --> 01:32:35.520 your car to your your wife or your son or 1810 01:32:35.560 --> 01:32:36.960 something for a couple of days and you get it back, 1811 01:32:37.000 --> 01:32:39.520 it just doesn't quite feel the same. It probably doesn't 1812 01:32:39.520 --> 01:32:43.279 because the computer has started for those shift adapts and 1813 01:32:43.359 --> 01:32:46.439 for spark curves and everything else to adapt to that driver. 1814 01:32:48.079 --> 01:32:51.199 This is this is a direct text based on what 1815 01:32:51.199 --> 01:32:54.960 we're talking about. This came in quickly at my Google number, 1816 01:32:55.279 --> 01:32:57.800 and I should just give that number out people. It's 1817 01:32:57.840 --> 01:33:01.920 seven four, seven nine nine nine fifty to eighty. They 1818 01:33:01.960 --> 01:33:04.000 want to know this, then, hold on, where the heck 1819 01:33:04.079 --> 01:33:08.239 did it. Go shoot, I'll find it and come back. 1820 01:33:08.359 --> 01:33:11.760 But when we were talking about CBTs and something, they 1821 01:33:11.800 --> 01:33:14.520 wanted to know. Oh, they want to know what kind 1822 01:33:14.560 --> 01:33:17.680 of transmissions, if any, do electric cars have. Aren't they 1823 01:33:17.840 --> 01:33:19.239 really constant velocity? 1824 01:33:19.800 --> 01:33:23.039 No, they're direct drive, so there is no transmission. 1825 01:33:23.079 --> 01:33:28.720 So there's no transmission. There's no transmission. Nope. They had 1826 01:33:28.720 --> 01:33:29.960 the pumpkin though, right or not? 1827 01:33:30.880 --> 01:33:33.039 So there were some the day, yes, so where you 1828 01:33:33.079 --> 01:33:34.960 had a single motor from the side, so they have 1829 01:33:35.039 --> 01:33:36.720 basically a gearing settle. 1830 01:33:36.760 --> 01:33:39.239 But if we looked under Marx models, if we looked 1831 01:33:39.319 --> 01:33:41.640 under Marx models, we'll see a motor driving the front 1832 01:33:41.680 --> 01:33:42.920 and the back right. 1833 01:33:42.720 --> 01:33:46.399 Yeah, probably easier to see Nelson And there's no transmission. 1834 01:33:48.720 --> 01:33:49.039 What's that? 1835 01:33:50.359 --> 01:33:53.119 I hit a rock the other day so I knocked 1836 01:33:53.159 --> 01:33:56.239 out some of my dad under. I don't even it's 1837 01:33:56.239 --> 01:33:59.239 just this tectaastic piece. So we got to get it up. 1838 01:33:59.119 --> 01:34:02.720 In the air and jeffski eyeball for me.

Hi Tom Martine here, 1849 01:34:48.840 --> 01:34:51.359 three oh three seven one three talk seven one three 1850 01:34:51.520 --> 01:34:56.039 eight two five five. What's on your mind? I want 1851 01:34:56.079 --> 01:34:59.239 to bring some stuff up. Uh, and then of course 1852 01:34:59.279 --> 01:35:02.720 we'll take all of your problems, questions, complaints. There's never 1853 01:35:02.760 --> 01:35:05.279 a rhyme or reason for calls in this show. But anyway, 1854 01:35:05.600 --> 01:35:14.199 I find this incredibly eye opening. So if you took 1855 01:35:14.319 --> 01:35:21.560 auto mechanics, would you say they have more trust than 1856 01:35:21.680 --> 01:35:27.319 distrust in the marketplace in general? Regarded very high, very low, 1857 01:35:27.479 --> 01:35:30.479 or average? What would you say? The majority of people 1858 01:35:30.680 --> 01:35:35.439 rule them as high trusted, low trusted, or average trusted, 1859 01:35:35.800 --> 01:35:38.720 And that would be an auto mechanic. 1860 01:35:40.520 --> 01:35:43.039 I'd probably say on the lower end, and all actuality, 1861 01:35:43.039 --> 01:35:45.760 it's just been a built stereotype over so many years. 1862 01:35:46.199 --> 01:35:49.039 You know, once you've gotten an established relationship with somebody, 1863 01:35:49.039 --> 01:35:51.359 then you know who you can trust. But I mean, 1864 01:35:51.560 --> 01:35:53.399 I can't tell you how many women come in and say, well, 1865 01:35:53.560 --> 01:35:55.359 I'm a normal woman. I don't want to get taken 1866 01:35:55.359 --> 01:35:58.279 advantage of. You know, I don't want you talking about it. 1867 01:35:58.319 --> 01:36:01.760 You'd be surprised to know. This is a massive survey 1868 01:36:02.319 --> 01:36:09.199 by Gallup and thirty three percent of the people highly 1869 01:36:09.279 --> 01:36:14.119 regard auto mechanics as trustworthy. That's an all time high. 1870 01:36:14.159 --> 01:36:20.960 Thirty three percent. Now twelve percent regard them as dirt bags. 1871 01:36:21.479 --> 01:36:25.840 That's my words, not Gallup. Gallup just calls it very 1872 01:36:25.880 --> 01:36:31.479 low trust. Okay, but here's the really cool thing. Fifty 1873 01:36:31.520 --> 01:36:37.920 two percent say, hey, they're pretty good. So you really 1874 01:36:37.960 --> 01:36:40.479 if you take the average the fit, I mean, if 1875 01:36:40.520 --> 01:36:43.159 you take the fifty two percent who really say they're 1876 01:36:43.199 --> 01:36:46.039 pretty good, right, They're not excellent, they're not bad, And 1877 01:36:46.079 --> 01:36:49.479 then you take thirty three percent, that's basically eighty five 1878 01:36:49.560 --> 01:36:53.359 percent of the population who don't think your dirt bags. 1879 01:36:54.840 --> 01:36:59.239 I mean, I find that pretty cool. And just as 1880 01:36:59.279 --> 01:37:05.359 a measure, you measure higher than judges and clergy. Do 1881 01:37:05.479 --> 01:37:10.520 you know that with clergy only thirty percent of the 1882 01:37:10.560 --> 01:37:16.840 people find clergy to be highly regarded. Twenty percent say 1883 01:37:17.479 --> 01:37:25.319 they're dirt bags and they're okay. Now, what do you 1884 01:37:25.399 --> 01:37:28.039 think about? What do you think? 1885 01:37:28.359 --> 01:37:29.119 That's a question. 1886 01:37:29.720 --> 01:37:32.319 Don't you don't what don't you think it would be 1887 01:37:32.359 --> 01:37:36.319 interesting when it comes to clergy to divide it into priests, 1888 01:37:36.399 --> 01:37:41.800 rabbis and and i'men and see if it's consistent through 1889 01:37:41.840 --> 01:37:43.640 all three major religious groups. 1890 01:37:43.760 --> 01:37:46.439 Yeah, it would be Go with a sure thing Denver's 1891 01:37:46.520 --> 01:37:49.439 Best roofer Excel Roofing dot com.

So yeah, And there's also but there's the the 1941 01:41:43.640 --> 01:41:48.479 the top five, our top six. They make millions of 1942 01:41:48.520 --> 01:41:51.720 dollars a year on this Now of course, even minor 1943 01:41:51.840 --> 01:42:01.399 players make money, and it's really usurping YouTube. It's becoming 1944 01:42:02.039 --> 01:42:05.239 I mean, it has become the biggest social media site. 1945 01:42:05.439 --> 01:42:10.640 But I heard that you can thwart the ban. Let's 1946 01:42:10.680 --> 01:42:12.479 just say Trump doesn't do anything. I don't know if 1947 01:42:12.520 --> 01:42:14.560 Trump has the authority to do away this. This is 1948 01:42:14.600 --> 01:42:18.079 a law, right, wasn't this passed by this ban? 1949 01:42:18.520 --> 01:42:18.960 So it goes. 1950 01:42:19.119 --> 01:42:21.520 It has to go away on the nineteenth they did 1951 01:42:21.520 --> 01:42:24.399 that last ditch effort with the Supreme Court. But my 1952 01:42:24.560 --> 01:42:28.720 understanding is on the nineteenth that's it. I mean, Congress 1953 01:42:29.000 --> 01:42:32.640 passed it and then Biden signed it, and come the twentieth, 1954 01:42:33.039 --> 01:42:36.439 after the inauguration, I would assume Trump might be able 1955 01:42:36.520 --> 01:42:38.720 to do something, but I have no idea what kind 1956 01:42:38.760 --> 01:42:44.119 of an executive order would overturn Congress. 1957 01:42:44.359 --> 01:42:48.920 I was, here's what you cannot an executive order cannot 1958 01:42:49.039 --> 01:42:55.439 overturn legislative action. Well that's arguablow, But yeah, it's not. 1959 01:42:55.840 --> 01:42:56.720 What do you mean it? 1960 01:42:57.039 --> 01:43:00.720 Well, I mean, you know, Biden Biden do any executive 1961 01:43:00.840 --> 01:43:04.119 order where they no longer had to remain in Mexico? 1962 01:43:04.279 --> 01:43:05.840 Why waiting for asylum? 1963 01:43:06.640 --> 01:43:08.640 How it was during the Trump years when he had 1964 01:43:08.640 --> 01:43:12.800 an executive order that changed that. That basically changed everything, 1965 01:43:12.840 --> 01:43:14.920 and it overrode our current laws. 1966 01:43:16.520 --> 01:43:19.079 But I don't I don't know. I mean, I don't know. 1967 01:43:19.359 --> 01:43:24.640 I don't think Biden. I think Biden reversed Trump's executive orders. 1968 01:43:24.680 --> 01:43:27.279 I think it was executive order versus executive order. I 1969 01:43:27.279 --> 01:43:30.079 don't think it was law versus executive order. I mean 1970 01:43:30.119 --> 01:43:32.520 it could, but I don't think so. From what I'm 1971 01:43:32.520 --> 01:43:37.399 reading here is legislative matters have to be overturned legislatively. 1972 01:43:37.439 --> 01:43:40.479 You can't just or of course, before they become a law, 1973 01:43:40.960 --> 01:43:43.319 a president can refuse to sign the law, veto it, 1974 01:43:43.720 --> 01:43:45.319 and then you can try to over it. They can 1975 01:43:45.319 --> 01:43:52.159 try to overpower your veto but basically they say he 1976 01:43:52.239 --> 01:43:54.880 doesn't have the power. But we'll see. Now here's what 1977 01:43:54.880 --> 01:43:58.600 I'm no Mark, you first introduced me years ago to VPNs, 1978 01:43:59.119 --> 01:44:03.119 so you can actually sign on is if you're in Italy. 1979 01:44:03.199 --> 01:44:07.359 Yeah, VPI they're very interesting. And let me tell you why. 1980 01:44:07.520 --> 01:44:09.600 I've learned a lot about this. I have a VPN. 1981 01:44:09.680 --> 01:44:13.159 I used an. It stands for virtual private Networks Go Ahead. 1982 01:44:13.159 --> 01:44:15.920 So what it does is it's mostly to hide yourself 1983 01:44:15.960 --> 01:44:19.640 for whatever reason. It doesn't matter good dubious it doesn't 1984 01:44:19.640 --> 01:44:22.760 matter to hide yourself. So the one I use, which 1985 01:44:22.800 --> 01:44:26.279 is PIA Private Internet Access, I can log into it 1986 01:44:26.319 --> 01:44:29.720 and choose virtually any country or most of them, and 1987 01:44:29.760 --> 01:44:32.159 then I can choose any state. I can do whatever 1988 01:44:32.239 --> 01:44:34.960 I want. And then let's say I do that. Let's 1989 01:44:34.960 --> 01:44:37.640 say there's a boxing match that I want to see. 1990 01:44:37.960 --> 01:44:40.479 In the United States, it's on pay per view, but 1991 01:44:40.600 --> 01:44:42.359 in Mexico you can watch it. 1992 01:44:42.319 --> 01:44:44.720 For free over the airwave, So I. 1993 01:44:44.680 --> 01:44:47.960 Could log in on Mexico, find a local TV station 1994 01:44:48.119 --> 01:44:50.720 that has streaming, and watch the fight. So there's an 1995 01:44:50.720 --> 01:44:54.039 example of using it. Some people use it to download movies. 1996 01:44:54.199 --> 01:44:57.520 They might have a movie collection and basically they'll log 1997 01:44:57.560 --> 01:45:00.000 onto the VPN so no one knows who they are 1998 01:45:00.079 --> 01:45:02.439 are when they're downloading movies, so they don't get kicked 1999 01:45:02.439 --> 01:45:06.560 off their internet provider. But VPNs aren't nearly as good 2000 01:45:06.960 --> 01:45:10.119 as what you're thinking. If you're on something like FanDuel 2001 01:45:10.439 --> 01:45:12.560 or any of these betting sites, I don't care which 2002 01:45:12.600 --> 01:45:15.840 one it is. There's other ways to verify where you 2003 01:45:15.960 --> 01:45:19.479 are besides a VPN, so there's a good chance a 2004 01:45:19.600 --> 01:45:23.079 VPN would not work for TikTok. For the average show, 2005 01:45:23.079 --> 01:45:25.359 there's always people that know how to get around stuff, 2006 01:45:25.560 --> 01:45:29.319 but for the average person, they if it's anywhere designed 2007 01:45:29.920 --> 01:45:33.560 like an app, like a FanDuel or anything else, you 2008 01:45:33.680 --> 01:45:36.600 simply can't do it. I can log into Colorado from 2009 01:45:36.600 --> 01:45:40.039 Wyoming on FanDuel, but I can't bet because. 2010 01:45:39.760 --> 01:45:41.039 It knows I'm on Wyoming. 2011 01:45:41.319 --> 01:45:43.800 Even if I log in using my phone on a 2012 01:45:43.880 --> 01:45:48.199 VPN to Colorado, it simply knows where I'm at because 2013 01:45:48.640 --> 01:45:52.520 because my phone, of course has a GPS, and when 2014 01:45:52.560 --> 01:45:56.319 I agreed to the terms of that app, it says 2015 01:45:56.439 --> 01:45:59.920 we will judge your location not by your Internet IP 2016 01:46:00.439 --> 01:46:02.600 but by your real location. 2017 01:46:02.319 --> 01:46:04.359 Of the phone. 2018 01:46:05.560 --> 01:46:07.960 So you're not going to be able to get on TikTok, 2019 01:46:08.079 --> 01:46:11.560 is what I'm telling you, tom Okay bottom line, Wow, 2020 01:46:11.920 --> 01:46:14.119 I didn't know you were such a TikTok fan. 2021 01:46:15.439 --> 01:46:18.079 No, not at all, Not at all, Mark, it's not 2022 01:46:18.239 --> 01:46:21.479 the fan of TikTok. It's the concept of banning stuff. 2023 01:46:22.039 --> 01:46:26.840 But I'll admit I don't know the extent of the 2024 01:46:26.920 --> 01:46:31.920 alleged threat. I think it's pretty good thought. Yeah, and 2025 01:46:32.000 --> 01:46:35.319 it may be. All I've done is I really haven't 2026 01:46:35.960 --> 01:46:38.840 immersed myself in the news of the day about it, 2027 01:46:38.920 --> 01:46:44.000 Like what exactly are they gathering. Apparently they're attaching themselves 2028 01:46:44.039 --> 01:46:48.399 to anything like they high value targets. But they have 2029 01:46:48.880 --> 01:46:54.279 identified people that they have turned to literally spy. I 2030 01:46:54.319 --> 01:46:55.079 didn't know that. 2031 01:46:55.520 --> 01:46:58.079 I mean, I ran a campaign. Listen to this. I'll 2032 01:46:58.079 --> 01:47:00.760 tell you how strong it was. They ran a campaign 2033 01:47:00.880 --> 01:47:04.560 when this first went to Congress, before it got passed, 2034 01:47:04.880 --> 01:47:07.600 they went out to every TikTok member telling you to 2035 01:47:07.640 --> 01:47:11.319 call your congressman. So you had the Chinese government literally 2036 01:47:11.399 --> 01:47:16.640 telling millions, if not a billion, people to contact your 2037 01:47:16.680 --> 01:47:20.279 congressmen and make sure they don't ban TikTok because they 2038 01:47:20.279 --> 01:47:20.920 want to take. 2039 01:47:20.800 --> 01:47:23.359 Away your rights and take away everything. 2040 01:47:23.399 --> 01:47:25.920 They did that, then I also want you to think 2041 01:47:25.960 --> 01:47:29.399 of something else in China right now, there's no Facebook, 2042 01:47:29.399 --> 01:47:33.560 there's no Twitter. The Chinese government will not allow any 2043 01:47:33.600 --> 01:47:37.760 of that stuff unless they agree to give the Chinese 2044 01:47:37.760 --> 01:47:38.600 all the information. 2045 01:47:38.920 --> 01:47:41.000 And of course these people aren't going to do it. 2046 01:47:41.039 --> 01:47:42.279 I think at one point. 2047 01:47:42.079 --> 01:47:45.439 Zuckerberg did do it with Facebook up to like eight 2048 01:47:45.520 --> 01:47:48.199 or nine, but then it got so crazy he just 2049 01:47:48.239 --> 01:47:51.560 stopped jumping through Chinese hoops. So my body, I guess 2050 01:47:51.560 --> 01:47:54.319 what I'm saying is if they don't allow our companies 2051 01:47:54.359 --> 01:47:57.319 over there, why the hell would we allow their company 2052 01:47:57.359 --> 01:47:57.800 over here? 2053 01:48:00.720 --> 01:48:12.640 Okay? Tit for Ted got it? Yeah? Or Triff Okay, 2054 01:48:13.600 --> 01:48:16.920 what do you think guys? I mean, I don't think 2055 01:48:16.920 --> 01:48:19.640 we're in the age group that cares, right, maybe we're 2056 01:48:19.680 --> 01:48:20.359 not even the ones. 2057 01:48:20.399 --> 01:48:23.520 But you know, TikTok for ses not being banned, just 2058 01:48:23.600 --> 01:48:26.600 the ownership. If if an American with a buy it, 2059 01:48:26.680 --> 01:48:30.199 whether it's you know, Elon Musk or one of the Sharks, 2060 01:48:30.479 --> 01:48:34.119 TikTok won't be banned, so that they're really not banning. 2061 01:48:34.119 --> 01:48:39.119 Any of those. Are you know actually anybody looking at 2062 01:48:39.119 --> 01:48:39.640 buying it? 2063 01:48:40.479 --> 01:48:45.399 Yeah, Kevin County from Shark Tank and definitely Elon h 2064 01:48:45.640 --> 01:48:50.000 is interested. Sure, but I hear it will be banned 2065 01:48:50.039 --> 01:48:55.279 on January nineteenth unless the popular social media platform cuts 2066 01:48:55.399 --> 01:48:59.239 ties with this China based parent company. So there is 2067 01:48:59.279 --> 01:49:01.800 no way it's not going down on the nineteenth. I 2068 01:49:01.840 --> 01:49:04.439 wouldn't know how that happens. And so for people out 2069 01:49:04.479 --> 01:49:06.840 there going, well, how would they do that, Well, there's 2070 01:49:06.840 --> 01:49:09.399 so many different ways. They can go to AT and T, 2071 01:49:09.560 --> 01:49:12.520 they can go to Verizon, and they can go to Google. 2072 01:49:12.640 --> 01:49:16.479 They can go and tell Google that and Apple anybody 2073 01:49:16.520 --> 01:49:18.640 that has this app on their phone, you've got to 2074 01:49:18.680 --> 01:49:21.279 kill the app, and they have the power to just pull. 2075 01:49:21.039 --> 01:49:23.000 The app right from your phone. Believe it or not. 2076 01:49:23.319 --> 01:49:26.119 Your carrier can do it, the Google store can do it, 2077 01:49:26.199 --> 01:49:28.119 the I Store can do it, or whatever the hell 2078 01:49:28.199 --> 01:49:28.760 is they called. 2079 01:49:28.960 --> 01:49:33.920 There is a million ways to make it disappear anyway. 2080 01:49:34.119 --> 01:49:37.479 Byte Dance is the owner, right and they say they're 2081 01:49:37.479 --> 01:49:41.359 not selling, well they're going to lose all that revenue. 2082 01:49:43.119 --> 01:49:47.199 Well see does bike Dance get to own a minority share? 2083 01:49:47.279 --> 01:49:49.920 I mean, what were the I'm curious if they. 2084 01:49:49.880 --> 01:49:53.439 Don't shut it down on the nineteenth, how that works 2085 01:49:53.520 --> 01:49:56.079 because the band is supposed to go into effect on 2086 01:49:56.159 --> 01:49:59.560 the nineteenth, come hell or high water.

And I took it down the missing. 2183 01:55:21.640 --> 01:55:24.159 Is it missing? Is it missing all the time? 2184 01:55:25.439 --> 01:55:25.640 Oh? 2185 01:55:25.720 --> 01:55:26.680 Yeah, it is now? 2186 01:55:28.159 --> 01:55:31.079 And then so you started up and it and it 2187 01:55:31.239 --> 01:55:34.279 just starts and can it can you drive? 2188 01:55:35.479 --> 01:55:35.680 Yeah? 2189 01:55:35.760 --> 01:55:38.960 Can you can still drive it? It's just just bounce. 2190 01:55:39.000 --> 01:55:41.359 He starts bouncing on you when you put it, when 2191 01:55:41.359 --> 01:55:44.479 you put it and drive or reverse. And the funny 2192 01:55:44.479 --> 01:55:46.319 thing is I took it to the shop two days 2193 01:55:46.359 --> 01:55:49.880 ago and guy put it on the scan, scanned it 2194 01:55:49.920 --> 01:55:53.720 and set everything from the catalytic converter on up, and 2195 01:55:53.760 --> 01:55:55.880 then I left the shop and then it just started 2196 01:55:55.920 --> 01:55:57.199 running fine. 2197 01:55:57.520 --> 01:55:58.479 So it was perfect. 2198 01:55:58.479 --> 01:56:01.359 In this morning, I got into it and I went 2199 01:56:01.439 --> 01:56:03.239 to leave to go to work, and it started doing 2200 01:56:03.319 --> 01:56:03.800 the same thing. 2201 01:56:04.640 --> 01:56:06.399 So I don't know, it sounds to me like a 2202 01:56:06.439 --> 01:56:10.079 computer issue. If it's just haphazardly misfiring. But guys, you're 2203 01:56:10.119 --> 01:56:10.720 the experts. 2204 01:56:10.720 --> 01:56:13.119 What do you think, what what codes are you getting 2205 01:56:13.159 --> 01:56:15.079 if you can't code when it's missing and just a 2206 01:56:15.119 --> 01:56:16.800 misfire code, or do you get other codes? 2207 01:56:17.439 --> 01:56:20.000 It could So there was something with the timing sensor 2208 01:56:20.119 --> 01:56:22.399 fall I didn't I didn't get the numbers. 2209 01:56:23.000 --> 01:56:25.039 Yeah, you got what they call phasers, and the timing 2210 01:56:25.119 --> 01:56:28.319 chains inside that motor can be starting to stick, so 2211 01:56:28.359 --> 01:56:30.720 they stick in one direction or another, and it's that's 2212 01:56:30.760 --> 01:56:32.840 where you start getting the misfires from. 2213 01:56:33.319 --> 01:56:35.239 So what would like intermediately? 2214 01:56:35.520 --> 01:56:37.840 Yes, it could be how many miles around this? 2215 01:56:39.000 --> 01:56:41.560 Uh hundred and forty two? 2216 01:56:41.640 --> 01:56:44.960 Yeah that's about right. Yeah, yeah, what would it? 2217 01:56:45.119 --> 01:56:45.279 Man? 2218 01:56:45.399 --> 01:56:47.439 What's the thing you end up changing about the timing 2219 01:56:47.520 --> 01:56:53.199 chain and the phasers? Timing chain and phasers inside the 2220 01:56:53.319 --> 01:56:55.680 front of the engine has a timing chain, two phasers, 2221 01:56:55.680 --> 01:56:58.800 four phasers spending the motor. Uh you know, but it's 2222 01:56:58.920 --> 01:57:04.079 it's a chronic Ford problem. Yeah, especially with fifty thousand miles. 2223 01:57:04.159 --> 01:57:07.600 Yeah, So what's what's worst case scenario? Repairs? 2224 01:57:07.840 --> 01:57:10.399 You probably about it was running, it's running great, and 2225 01:57:10.439 --> 01:57:12.199 then all of a sudden it just has sat for 2226 01:57:12.239 --> 01:57:13.039 overnight and then. 2227 01:57:13.039 --> 01:57:13.800 Hold on Andrew. 2228 01:57:13.880 --> 01:57:16.640 Yeah, you could be anywhere two to three grand. You know, 2229 01:57:16.760 --> 01:57:18.840 you may try some oil condition or see if that'll 2230 01:57:18.840 --> 01:57:21.039 help clean it up, you know, like b GM away 2231 01:57:21.199 --> 01:57:24.840 or anything like that may help prolong it. But it's 2232 01:57:24.840 --> 01:57:26.920 inevitable on those motors, is it. 2233 01:57:27.279 --> 01:57:29.079 Man, that's a lot of money, that is. 2234 01:57:29.560 --> 01:57:32.720 Yeah, well the guy was talking, it'd be uh, why 2235 01:57:32.720 --> 01:57:34.960 it's just to swap the engines on. But that be 2236 01:57:35.079 --> 01:57:36.199 something to look into. 2237 01:57:36.239 --> 01:57:38.399 Or just oh no, no, why would you do? 2238 01:57:38.439 --> 01:57:40.039 All of that? Depend on what's you get a motor? 2239 01:57:40.079 --> 01:57:45.119 For sure? Yeah? Sure? Really, well eventually the same thing. 2240 01:57:45.239 --> 01:57:47.159 Well, if you get a rebuilt motor and put it 2241 01:57:47.199 --> 01:57:49.159 in there, no, you're way ahead of the game. I 2242 01:57:49.159 --> 01:57:50.600 wouldn't put another used one in. 2243 01:57:51.680 --> 01:57:55.479 Yeah, correct, because then the motor would be warranteed. 2244 01:57:55.600 --> 01:57:55.800 Right. 2245 01:57:56.079 --> 01:58:00.079 Okay, if it's two or three great is god? What 2246 01:58:00.119 --> 01:58:01.439 would it be to rebuild the motor? 2247 01:58:01.479 --> 01:58:03.680 He has eight to ten probably. 2248 01:58:05.600 --> 01:58:07.359 How about to move in exchange? 2249 01:58:07.439 --> 01:58:09.720 So that's all together? Yeah, that's all in one. 2250 01:58:12.119 --> 01:58:16.640 Okay, sorry, bet j sts some to g and see 2251 01:58:16.680 --> 01:58:18.840 if we can get a couple couple more hundred. 2252 01:58:18.600 --> 01:58:20.479 Miles out try that first? Sure? 2253 01:58:21.439 --> 01:58:23.439 Okay, what was the name of that it's called. 2254 01:58:23.560 --> 01:58:26.520 A BG product and it's the motor oil additive or 2255 01:58:26.560 --> 01:58:29.800 the initials are m A. You can get it on Amazon, 2256 01:58:29.840 --> 01:58:32.239 you get it NAPA, a lot of different places. 2257 01:58:32.800 --> 01:58:35.439 All right, I'll try that. I was maybe thinking maybe 2258 01:58:35.439 --> 01:58:38.039 it was something, you know, just maybe like the ignition. 2259 01:58:38.119 --> 01:58:43.079 Maybe, Hey, Kevin, is it possible? Is it possible that 2260 01:58:43.079 --> 01:58:45.680 that a BG product could clean it up and he 2261 01:58:45.720 --> 01:58:46.640 won't need the repair. 2262 01:58:47.000 --> 01:58:49.479 It would prolong it. He will need the repair eventually, 2263 01:58:49.680 --> 01:58:52.000 but it is sludge that contributes to it. So if 2264 01:58:52.000 --> 01:58:54.079 he can clean that up, he make it some miles 2265 01:58:54.439 --> 01:58:55.479 before he has to do it. 2266 01:58:55.560 --> 01:58:57.720 Yeah, how many miles? 2267 01:58:58.560 --> 01:59:01.399 He's probably on borrowed time now. But you know, if 2268 01:59:01.439 --> 01:59:03.640 he can clean it up and get another five ten thousand, 2269 01:59:03.640 --> 01:59:05.079 another year out of it for he has to do it, 2270 01:59:05.119 --> 01:59:05.439 why not? 2271 01:59:07.720 --> 01:59:10.239 All right now, JP, you have a comment on the 2272 01:59:10.239 --> 01:59:11.560 TikTok band. Go ahead? 2273 01:59:13.279 --> 01:59:16.279 Yeah, guys, said, good afternoon. Just a couple of things, 2274 01:59:16.319 --> 01:59:19.159 and I got most of this off summary from the 2275 01:59:19.159 --> 01:59:24.279 Supreme Court ruling this morning. But the biggest issue with 2276 01:59:24.800 --> 01:59:32.680 TikTok's ownership is the potential for accumulating data off of 2277 01:59:32.720 --> 01:59:36.840 people's phones, and sixty three percent of the US population 2278 01:59:37.680 --> 01:59:40.520 from twelve to seventeen years old has that app on 2279 01:59:40.560 --> 01:59:46.159 their phone. The concern is that China will be accumulating 2280 01:59:46.279 --> 01:59:49.640 data on those people, and twenty years from now, when 2281 01:59:49.640 --> 01:59:52.960 they're elected to be in Congress or they're in the military, 2282 01:59:53.439 --> 01:59:55.800 they could come back and blackmail those people with all 2283 01:59:55.880 --> 01:59:57.560 the information that they've got on them. 2284 01:59:57.680 --> 02:00:00.119 Sure can. 2285 02:00:00.239 --> 02:00:06.560 And the other aspect, Mark was saying that what happens 2286 02:00:06.560 --> 02:00:09.720 if they don't get rid of it on the nineteenth 2287 02:00:09.760 --> 02:00:12.640 What I had heard was there's a five thousand dollars 2288 02:00:12.640 --> 02:00:19.399 a day per user fine for any corporation that supports 2289 02:00:19.600 --> 02:00:23.600 that platform after the nineteenth, So it would turn out 2290 02:00:23.600 --> 02:00:25.880 to be a one point seven billion dollars a day 2291 02:00:26.039 --> 02:00:30.720 fine to continue to operate that platform on your service. 2292 02:00:34.600 --> 02:00:36.119 Wow, that's a lot of money. 2293 02:00:37.039 --> 02:00:39.359 Well, and that's why they're saying that the legal departments 2294 02:00:39.359 --> 02:00:41.680 of these corporations just can tell we can't even afford 2295 02:00:41.920 --> 02:00:46.159 to wait one day in case the nineteenth, the twentieth, 2296 02:00:46.199 --> 02:00:49.760 which new president comes in. That's one point seven billion 2297 02:00:49.800 --> 02:00:52.399 if they decide to come after us. And there's a 2298 02:00:52.479 --> 02:00:55.720 five year stature of the limitations on that. So even 2299 02:00:55.760 --> 02:00:58.159 if Trump were not to go after them for the 2300 02:00:58.239 --> 02:01:00.319 fines the next president could. 2301 02:01:00.880 --> 02:01:03.760 I don't know how, Like I don't know how Trump 2302 02:01:04.640 --> 02:01:10.079 could do anything to change this right now besides negotiate 2303 02:01:10.199 --> 02:01:15.159 something the enforcement of those fines. Though, as we know 2304 02:01:15.439 --> 02:01:19.359 just from the student loan debacle where some people I 2305 02:01:19.520 --> 02:01:23.199 ended up paying for their college, we know the president 2306 02:01:23.279 --> 02:01:26.399 can do certain things even if the Supreme Court rules 2307 02:01:26.399 --> 02:01:28.199 one way, you're not supposed to do that, but they 2308 02:01:28.239 --> 02:01:30.479 still do it. So I guess he could tell the 2309 02:01:30.680 --> 02:01:34.119 Justice Department. Just like Biden told the Justice Department to 2310 02:01:34.159 --> 02:01:37.600 go after Trump, he could tell the Justice Department not 2311 02:01:37.680 --> 02:01:41.199 to go after TikTok. So I mean, I don't know 2312 02:01:41.279 --> 02:01:44.399 how any of that's going to unfold. Did you notice Tom. 2313 02:01:44.199 --> 02:01:50.000 How I got some political shots in there. We gotgage Yeah, 2314 02:01:50.039 --> 02:01:50.720 go ahead. 2315 02:01:51.920 --> 02:01:57.000 Included language that the executive Branch could offer a ninety 2316 02:01:57.079 --> 02:02:03.000 day waiver extension if there was substantial progress in the 2317 02:02:03.039 --> 02:02:05.039 transaction of selling the corporations, and. 2318 02:02:05.159 --> 02:02:06.439 There hasn't been any. 2319 02:02:06.880 --> 02:02:09.840 And the Biden administration doesn't think there's been enough progress. 2320 02:02:09.920 --> 02:02:12.239 They questioned whether they would have the authority to. 2321 02:02:12.199 --> 02:02:12.640 Do it now. 2322 02:02:12.680 --> 02:02:16.039 Trump tomorrow or on Monday may know that there is 2323 02:02:16.079 --> 02:02:20.680 substantial progress, but it's still one day after the after 2324 02:02:20.720 --> 02:02:25.079 the band should have started, and that puts everybody at 2325 02:02:25.159 --> 02:02:27.720 risk of a one point seven billion dollars fine if 2326 02:02:27.720 --> 02:02:29.720 they operate one day into it. 2327 02:02:32.000 --> 02:02:33.640 Got it, We got to take a break.

Go ahead, Randy Randolph. 2345 02:03:42.560 --> 02:03:46.960 Yes, I just had twenty four to seven at my house. 2346 02:03:47.399 --> 02:03:50.800 Over the years I've I've had a lot of their competitors. 2347 02:03:51.279 --> 02:03:54.920 Every other one, instead of today, had always tried to 2348 02:03:55.000 --> 02:03:57.359 sell me something. The last one wanted me to get 2349 02:03:57.399 --> 02:04:00.439 a whole new furnace. These guys, they spent an hour 2350 02:04:00.439 --> 02:04:03.920 and a half scrubbing and gotten everything immaculate. And then 2351 02:04:03.960 --> 02:04:06.039 at the end, I said, so, what's wrong and they 2352 02:04:06.039 --> 02:04:10.000 said nothing, Everything looks great. Have a great day. I 2353 02:04:10.039 --> 02:04:12.960 am so impressed with them. That's why I'm taking the 2354 02:04:13.039 --> 02:04:15.960 time to call. I want to thank you, oh man 2355 02:04:16.239 --> 02:04:20.319 them and they are outstanding. I can't say enough. 2356 02:04:20.600 --> 02:04:21.560 Yeah, they're good people. 2357 02:04:21.600 --> 02:04:26.159 Pognician with Steven and his associate was I hope I'm 2358 02:04:26.159 --> 02:04:30.680 pronouncing that right. But anyway, they could not have been better. 2359 02:04:30.800 --> 02:04:33.119 Even offered to buy him lunch and they said no, 2360 02:04:33.279 --> 02:04:36.840 thank you. But I want to really thank you for 2361 02:04:36.960 --> 02:04:39.319 that because they were wonderful. 2362 02:04:40.960 --> 02:04:44.199 You know, Randolph Randolph, I do believe in them and 2363 02:04:44.279 --> 02:04:47.960 my sponsors in general, that that extreme clean is incredible. 2364 02:04:48.239 --> 02:04:51.520 Now here's the good news. Here's what they did. They 2365 02:04:51.560 --> 02:04:53.199 may have lost money, and I don't mean that in 2366 02:04:53.199 --> 02:04:55.119 a bad way. But you know, they do way more 2367 02:04:55.159 --> 02:04:57.720 work than that calls that than they charge for that call. 2368 02:04:58.199 --> 02:04:59.680 And here's the bottom line thing. 2369 02:05:01.000 --> 02:05:04.079 You know why because I'm I'm by their membership group. 2370 02:05:04.600 --> 02:05:06.880 So oh my god, I forgot that I was a 2371 02:05:07.000 --> 02:05:09.199 member and then they came out there. 2372 02:05:09.600 --> 02:05:14.399 Oh my gosh. You know what. Now here's the thing. 2373 02:05:14.760 --> 02:05:16.640 But they know when they do a service like this, 2374 02:05:16.720 --> 02:05:19.079 whether it's for the thirty nine bucks or for the membership, 2375 02:05:19.520 --> 02:05:22.399 they know that now when you need something, you're not 2376 02:05:22.439 --> 02:05:23.920 going to hesitate to call him, are you? 2377 02:05:24.960 --> 02:05:27.800 Absolutely? In fact, that's told me that when it comes 2378 02:05:27.840 --> 02:05:30.720 time for my air conditioner, they've got the job. And 2379 02:05:30.760 --> 02:05:33.479 if anything does go wrong, they're the people I'm going 2380 02:05:33.560 --> 02:05:34.279 to be dealing with. 2381 02:05:36.279 --> 02:05:39.880 That's so good. You're going to our conditioner this weekend. 2382 02:05:40.359 --> 02:05:42.880 No I'm not. But here's the I am. I am 2383 02:05:43.199 --> 02:05:46.399 months down the road and I want them to handle everything. 2384 02:05:47.840 --> 02:05:53.800 I love it. They sponsor. H my god. Yeah, he's this. 2385 02:05:53.800 --> 02:05:57.000 This is the real deal. And you know what, here's 2386 02:05:57.039 --> 02:06:00.000 the thing. You know, I got to tell you story. 2387 02:06:00.119 --> 02:06:03.840 So years and years and years ago, I didn't do commercials, 2388 02:06:04.960 --> 02:06:10.239 many many, many many years ago. Then business, the business 2389 02:06:10.359 --> 02:06:11.199 change right. 2390 02:06:11.119 --> 02:06:14.800 And well, hold on, I've always wanted to ask you this. 2391 02:06:14.920 --> 02:06:17.199 I'm pretty sure I know the answer. But when you 2392 02:06:17.239 --> 02:06:20.960 were with certain news stations on TV, you really weren't 2393 02:06:21.000 --> 02:06:22.720 allowed to do spots, right. 2394 02:06:24.039 --> 02:06:27.199 No, that's not exactly true. What it was is this. 2395 02:06:27.920 --> 02:06:31.159 When I was on Channel four, they didn't they didn't 2396 02:06:31.159 --> 02:06:34.479 want me to do any TV spots. The radio spots 2397 02:06:34.520 --> 02:06:37.720 they kind of just didn't really address. Okay, I mean 2398 02:06:37.720 --> 02:06:39.640 I got paid to do spots as long as it 2399 02:06:39.680 --> 02:06:42.680 didn't filter into my TV work, they were fine with it. 2400 02:06:42.960 --> 02:06:46.600 But I didn't do them for another reason. No one 2401 02:06:47.239 --> 02:06:49.880 wanted me to do them. And they didn't want me 2402 02:06:49.960 --> 02:06:53.399 to do them because they knew when I do commercials 2403 02:06:53.439 --> 02:06:56.359 or when I get calls, that if I recommend somebody, 2404 02:06:56.560 --> 02:06:59.319 there's going to be hell to pay if something goes wrong. 2405 02:07:00.000 --> 02:07:06.279 When they were afraid of inviting negative calls and backfiring 2406 02:07:07.279 --> 02:07:12.359 because truly, I see when people have a problem with 2407 02:07:12.479 --> 02:07:16.039 somebody who advertises on Channel nine or Channel four or 2408 02:07:16.079 --> 02:07:19.479 somewhere else, they don't call Channel nine and complain about 2409 02:07:19.479 --> 02:07:23.159 that company. They call the company because they don't associate 2410 02:07:23.239 --> 02:07:26.680 Channel nine with a particular person. But when I do 2411 02:07:26.760 --> 02:07:32.279 the commercial it's me, so they call me. So I 2412 02:07:32.399 --> 02:07:36.640 put a personal spin on commercials now and it wasn't 2413 02:07:36.800 --> 02:07:39.800 just like and I hate to say this, but a 2414 02:07:39.880 --> 02:07:42.760 talent meaning. And they're all very good, by the way, 2415 02:07:42.880 --> 02:07:46.000 but they do talk shows about shows about other things, 2416 02:07:46.439 --> 02:07:48.760 and they're not consumer advocates. When I do a talk 2417 02:07:48.800 --> 02:07:53.319 show about stuff and then advertise that stuff that has 2418 02:07:53.359 --> 02:07:57.199 a real, real, real deep connection and it also has 2419 02:07:57.239 --> 02:08:00.720 potential for abuse. I mean, if I'm telling you this 2420 02:08:00.760 --> 02:08:02.960 is how you get this done, this is what you 2421 02:08:03.000 --> 02:08:05.960 should do, this is what you shouldn't do, and then 2422 02:08:06.000 --> 02:08:09.000 I also tell a company that can do it. If 2423 02:08:09.039 --> 02:08:12.199 I wanted to be a crooked bastard, it could be terrible. 2424 02:08:12.439 --> 02:08:15.680 There could be terrible recommendations and people a lot of 2425 02:08:15.680 --> 02:08:17.720 them would trust me, but that trust would only go 2426 02:08:18.479 --> 02:08:21.960 it would run out without credibility. You don't go forty 2427 02:08:22.000 --> 02:08:26.479 five years recommending bad people. So what we do is 2428 02:08:26.800 --> 02:08:33.319 is I developed doing spots for only people that agreed 2429 02:08:33.479 --> 02:08:37.960 in writing that if anything went wrong and I thought 2430 02:08:38.039 --> 02:08:43.479 they did anything wrong, they would change it. Nobody does that. Okay, 2431 02:08:43.800 --> 02:08:46.279 that was my condition. If you want to advertise with 2432 02:08:46.359 --> 02:08:49.199 me and I tell you to reverse it or not 2433 02:08:49.239 --> 02:08:51.680 to do it or refund. You have to do whatever 2434 02:08:51.720 --> 02:08:56.840 I ask, unquestionably, because I can't have people being even 2435 02:08:56.920 --> 02:08:59.960 thinking they're being cheated. But that doesn't mean I saw 2436 02:09:00.199 --> 02:09:03.079 with the consumer every time either. So the bottom line 2437 02:09:03.159 --> 02:09:08.279 is this, I started doing this kind of endorsement years ago, 2438 02:09:08.640 --> 02:09:13.640 and instead of turning backfiring, businesses loved it because they 2439 02:09:13.760 --> 02:09:18.000 measured up. And in fact, that's the way the model 2440 02:09:18.000 --> 02:09:20.199 has been ever since. But one thing I'll tell you 2441 02:09:20.279 --> 02:09:24.680 for sure, you can't lie and get away with it 2442 02:09:24.720 --> 02:09:27.920 for long. You can't be a bad company and get 2443 02:09:27.960 --> 02:09:31.800 away with it for long. The truth comes out all 2444 02:09:32.359 --> 02:09:35.600 the time, all the time. You can't hide it. So 2445 02:09:36.479 --> 02:09:39.319 you know, we've had over the years, maybe a handful 2446 02:09:39.359 --> 02:09:41.479 of people here and there that have tried to BSUs 2447 02:09:41.920 --> 02:09:44.920 that said they were good people. We've also had mark 2448 02:09:44.960 --> 02:09:47.199 as you know, really good people when they started out 2449 02:09:47.239 --> 02:09:49.840 and they got in trouble. They got too big too fast. 2450 02:09:50.279 --> 02:09:56.520 You know, there's no perfection in business. There's only striving 2451 02:09:57.600 --> 02:10:01.920 for perfection. And then there's other people. They're victim to circumstances. 2452 02:10:01.960 --> 02:10:05.439 We happen to be talking about uh neo orthodonics I 2453 02:10:05.439 --> 02:10:08.520 think yesterday, and they had to file chapter well, they 2454 02:10:08.520 --> 02:10:10.920 filed chapter eleven and it looks like it converted to 2455 02:10:10.960 --> 02:10:12.319 a seven and they're gone. 2456 02:10:12.359 --> 02:10:14.439 But really, the nail in their coffin. 2457 02:10:14.840 --> 02:10:17.279 In fact, like I said yesterday, the coffin and the 2458 02:10:17.359 --> 02:10:20.159 nail in the coffin, I think was covid AT that 2459 02:10:20.279 --> 02:10:22.359 shut down a lot of things like that. 2460 02:10:23.800 --> 02:10:26.840 I know, I know.
