Speaker 1: Was that Sean Paul out there. Couldn't you tell by the smell? Start up that up Brooklyn by Star Up Brooklyn, Buy Data they make a noise Data up episode number thirty two. It's the Brooken Boys podcast. That was Sean Paul out there, was Brudy that's crazy Scary Jones. You know, I will say that there's an aura about a legendary artist. I was. I don't even go so far as to say a legacy artist. I mean Sean Paul. Shut up. Paul has been making music for that maybeventeen years, yeah, but very close to that. Well, he's his first hit was two thousand one with Blue Cantrell and hit him up Style that s Paul Blue contral. Yeah, but I remember, I mean, get busy, huge hit from Sean Paul. I'm just taking a look, but he goes, I don't need to care what people say. I don't wait a dad, but I did a sniffing glue song parody to that. I don't want to sniff. I'm glue see if it's in there. But it was mostly like mumbling. Okay, So while you're looking speaking of legendary artists to me, by the way, my point was Sean Paul because he's for most of my career him like Brittney. No, well, yeah, you know Front Paul. He's great. But I said a load him in the hallway over by the men's room. He was walking in through the lobby and I saw him out by the rock station, and uh, he says, un he recognized me. He gives me the big hog pat on the back, and then he walked away, and I wreaked of marijuana. You know, like they say contact high. I made contact with a guy who was clearly I think it's in his jacket. Well, I don't know what pocket he keeps it in, but it's all over No, I mean seriously, it is like it is like soaked into his jacket. Okay, you ever go up to an old couch at somebody's house. So I get at the Haunted house and you hit the couch and the dust flies out when I when I backpatted him, matter wanna flew out of the back of his jacket. He's like pig pen and peanuts, but instead of dirt, it's Mary j Oh, here's your here's your song parody? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. This is old school. You can't Comfrey and out, Oh no, what the hell I said? But no one really knows just what I said, even I don't really have a blue my tongue, loft and sticks. I got me then blue and I make up a word, or to spend a lot of time wondering what I said. I got a lot of cheesecake in my bed. I gotta save a dimes and in distress my undoor where is red?

Just do not pee in my poo lead addiction VP to follow this tone. Well, I don't really care what words you say, they just ain't a way it can be bruised my tongue of the sticks, like can eat thin glue? I monopoly, how about you? Because take lots of time just them get thin dress. Got the land of cheese up in in my head that hands land bread to live my bed and crumbs a bride. I forgot that one. That's eat glue. Yeah shaw Paul, Yeah my time. I speak like my tongue like I've been eating glue. Anyway, what a nice guy. We're just talking to him out in the hallway. That was the sequel to Mr. Mumbler, which we played last week. Mr Mun't know what I'm saying is in my world? That was my parody equivalent of a sequel. Oh so you did Mr Mumble first mumble yea. Mr Mumbler was right. That was I think two thousand four. Yeah. I also did um Oh remember Macy Gray. Yeah? What was her song? Oh? I try to say ye, pull pull up, I try to speak, Oh shut up you we did this, oh yeah, any song where he was mumbling. Yeah. Oh, and then I did an Atlantis Morris said parody. Hold on, keep up with you. Try to speak Macy Gravel because here we go. This is what you don't get enough of on the show anymore. Exactly. Let's play this and it's entirety wounds pronounces. I don't announce my words. My jaw just flaps. You will want to go and check your in. I slur my words like the blah blasts. Your eyes will cross when I'm talking to you. I did major in school in public speaking. You cannot figure out what I spoke. Trying to enunciate and I maumble. Whatever I say is not clear. I just mumble like I'm drunk on deer. I ain't flesh is broke. I try to saying fraze and I mamble, so I try to hide it. It's clear my voice sounds like this gravel, and I figure how what I spoke. I don't enunciate. I just mumble whatever I said. It's ready, not implished. It's more set us to had a song too that you it. Yeah, I thought it was. I got one hand in. No. There was one song on her on her second album where she just rambled on and it was like Indian rhythms and it's it was. It wasn't a hit, it was it was a single, but it wasn't a hit. It is it Guardian now? And then what we did was I had a singer just read an Amex statement like the fine print on the back to the music because it was made more sense than her stupid song. Wow, we had a lot of Milege out of allantas did so. Yeah. So I used to. I still write parodies for radio stations around the country. We just don't play a lot on our show, which I don't understand why whatever, Well, it's okay, listen. I put some of them on YouTube search my name. Um, you notice some of our phone taps are on YouTube. Yeah, well, you know, take most of them down, Yeah, I know, but you know, there was a couple of them that I did that that for some reason went all over the place. I did a phone tap on and I guess it was a Russian kid and he was, you know, the Russian kid was tapping his dad and the guy was screaming and Russian, and I believe we aired the phone tap, and this phone tap went all around Brighton Beach, Brooklyn, our old neighborhood. Remember Brighton Beach b You know, Brighton Beach home of a lot of Russians. So anytime I go someplace and I talked to people, you know, from that area, and they happened to be Russian. They remember this phone tap because it went viral. Somehow it went all over the web and even made it to Russia itself. You know that. That's the thing I have a problem with. What when people say it went viral all over the place. First of all, that's what viral means. Second of all, the internet's the Internet. So to say it went to Russia, I mean, I mean it was played Russia. But how did it get there? How did get there? That's what happened. Somebody hears it in Brighton Beach, Brooklyn, which is all Russians. They got Alexei, I got a great thing for You're going to send you an email please. Yeah. But what I think the Russians know how to get into our system? Do you get that from? I don't know. I heard something with the politically well, and I have Facebook. I know, dude, that guy's in trouble. You know that one dude was coming out from the government. He's like, I want Mark Zuckerberg to take the stand himself, and he's got to sit there and he better explained to us personally how this happened. Well, whatever, they'll figure it out. I'm not gonna get into that now. All right, that's for the other podcast I do? Which one I don't have one? Be like, what's the one you do? Man? What's the other one I don't have? We really like mess with people's heads my politics, my political podcast by political. By the way, speaking of which Joy read from MSNBC. Her books have not contacted me yet. The follow up I have to I have to d m her against leid intern d m s and remind her that she wants to have me on. Someone who did uh publicly tweet us? Was Michael Rappaport. Yes, he did, so it seems that he's onto us. Okay, those we're after him write a hot pursuit of getting Michael Rappaport on the show. So one of our one of our listeners tweeted, when you at my gradport on at my gradport like, and by the way, you have a hard fast rule about ce seeing the person. Well, if you if you're like, it's not like when you bad mouth somebody. If if if you were gonna say something bad about Cardi B, you don't want to act Cardi B her and attack. That's offensive, right, But with this in this case it worked in our favorite because Michael Rappaport was copied in the tweet and he saw it and he wrote back. So I wrote back to this person at at them and at Michael report cause I wanted him to say it hopefully soon love him. And he wrote back, uh, yeah, working on it will be soon something like that. So then everybody saw that freaked out. Now, somebody, somebody, Here's what I want to ask, though, don't copy me. If I tweet and I say had a problem at let's say Joe's Burger Joint, right, don't take it on your on your own to then tweet hey at David underscore Brody at Joe's Burger Joint. Can't wait till you rip them and get free this? Sorry, yeah, you want that. I will make the decision if I want to act that. I don't want them knowing. Or if I say something on the podcasts like a sucker punch. Though if you think about it right, like if I sucker punching them, it's like you know you're doing it behind the back, you're ripping. Also, if I mention a company on here, I don't want you guys to tweet at them so that they know that I have a show and UM on the radio and a second would that be considered cowardly then that you're not manning up because I want no I'm just devil's advocate. I'm gonnas that I want them to give me whatever they're going to give me because I'm a customer, not because they're worried about or concerned that I might rip them on the radio, which I would never do. Okay, you know, I know we we play we play fair. It's it's it's it's an unfair advantage to have a power of a microphone in our court. Right, So I don't go on and take this opportunity. Whenever I say here, I say after the fact, I don't come on and go oh I'm gonna rip hohol hands. Right, I tell you I've already done it, and they did the right thing by me. You. I'll never forget um. We were in our radio station. Was in a parade, a smaller parade, the Hoboken St. Patrick's dy Parade several years Name and names. Yeah, well, I'm not gonna game the name of the person who did this, but I. We were. I was on there with another DJ from another day part on the on Z one and we were hanging out and we were on the microphone. Why are you giving me stanking? I don't know if I like where this is going. Well, no, we've got in trouble with that with the fast food place for no. No. So it was it was it was another pertect, another DJ and I. Yeah, we'll tell that story. Another DJ and I on the float and we both had microphones, and we both had microphone. Another DJ and me. We'll get to that talking with the DJ and I on the float. That's what I thought. And we're calling out to everybody what's going on Homeboken And then some drunk asshole out of the crowd goes, fuck you and you radio station, screaming out loud, don't listen to you, listen what we're hot? Nineties seven whatever, And then and then um said DJ gets into the microphone says well uh and just rips into him into the microphone, and everyone around in that earshot was laughing their ass off as as this guy was ripping the hell out of this one guy. And the moral of the story is, as he said on the mic, goes, he goes. You feel a little powerless now that I'm overpowering you. And I got a microphone, you don't. Don't don't funk with the guy with the microphone, because I will, I will rip you a new one because Tucker, tell me about where's your girlfriend right now? She's not, she's not anywhere near you. She's she's probably she's probably kissing some of the guy over there, like like like literally, this guy went in, so this DJ handled him like a hecklo heckled. This guy won one little peep out of the dude in the crowd. He was silenced, tail between the legs, cowering. That's pretty much what you get when you do stand up and someone heckles. I mean, you're pretty much get the final say because you have got the microphones. Again, why would anyone even heckle? Why would you even well go so far? If you're really going to be ball zy, then you jump up on the float and you beat the ship out of the DJ with the microphone. No, we were sky box, which is off the ground. So if you don't know what the sky boxes and how would you It's like it's like living in a trailer home. But the trailer home had like, uh one of those exes, those um uh extended things that like lift you up right, like we were like n an old boom box on nineties style boombox of the I don't have to know who the DJ was to know if he was on the ground and the other guy, he wouldn't have spoken, he would not have But yeah, but how did you handle hecklers when you were doing stand up? Well, again, I don't want to. I don't want to mislead people. I really didn't do stand up when you did comedy and improv. But first of all, nobody heckled me because I'm hilarious. But there is that. No, there were a couple of times we had some people who were a little littlerowdy whatever you know, you would you would say things that were funny but not offensive, like hey, don't you have to get back to work the fries ha done? You know that? That old joke? You know what I mean? That's that that that's a crowd silencer. Hey dude, no, we're just gonna give your heads up. I'm pretty sure annoying me on stage as a violation of your parole, Like you know, things were like the crowd of laughing the last So you have prepackaged lines ready to go? No, I improve everything I don't have. But are comedians have to to you? I just improve those I didn't have any in my head. So there aren't prepacked lines. Oh, there are prepack of lines. But a good comic just riffs on that person because of what they're wearing, what they look like. One of my favorites is David Tell. He does it so well. Oh he's great, David Tell. If you haven't just google him, you've definitely seen him before. David Tell, by the way, is the reason why we don't have comics on the show anymore, is it? Yeah? Yeah, so uh it was back when you and I were booking guests for the show, right, Oh my god, it was I don't know, two thousand five, two thousand four or six whatever, and we had a stream of comedy, right. We used to have comics every other week, right, right, because they were some of the major comedy clubs in New York, mostly Caroline's Comedy Club. That's who are we're friends with, and they're the biggest comedy club in New York. Um, but hey, if Gotham I'm many club wants sponsor to the podcast. I'm fine with that. Stand up New York Loo. Yeah, alright, the seller Okay. Anyway, so um uh. I told Elvis that David tell Was was going to be in town, and the Caroline's Comedy Club said, Hey, would you like to have David tell on? By the way, famous show on Comedy Central, Up All Night with David tell hilarious. So David tell Um is brilliant. He's very dry, very laid back, very do you have a notice? So when you guy calls up on the phone, very like that. But he's very funny. Okay. He's also a big drinker. One of his shows on one of the MTV whatever whatever station it was on, I forget. He would go from bar to ball. That was the show. I was just saying, up it was up all night? Yeah, and he was that with Rhonda Shear. No, Up all Night was on the Shear whatever it was, it was, it was he Yeah, he did it. He did it from bars. He would hurt two o'clock in the morning, right right right, Okay, last call, last round, something like that. I'll look it up, look it up. We don't need to Texas to Twitter right now, right now? Yeah, okay, So he comes in and he was hung over, off his ass, he was just like and so he had like his head was practically on the counter like that's how hungover he was. And he may listen he probably shouldn't have done in the interview. He may not have been insomniac. That's it. He may not have been, by the way, coming in tired doesn't make it in while you're insomniac, whatever the case. But he was drinking. So I'm not saying he was drinking that night. I'm not gonna cast dispersions on David tell I'm a fan. I'd like to have him on his podcast when he seemed like he may have been hungover. He was certainly very tired. Let's just say he was very tired. And when you do a high energy morning show and you're trying to wake up your listeners, having a yeah, I'm gonna be there all weekend, no I have that, sometimes it just doesn't go well. Right. So that Elvis turned to me after the show and said, never again. I said, never again, David Telly, what, no one, No more comics. That was the end of that. So we didn't have comics for years. Occasionally Lisa lamp and all he would come on and John PINETTEO friends of the show. But like comics coming to town, we took at it. This is ten twelve years from now, whatever, no more, goat boy. Jim Brewer, Jim Brewer was on Jim Brewers on with us. Uh. Last time was in studio two thousand one July. And I know that because I have a picture him in the studio at the Twin Towers out the window, because our old studios were on the water right across from the Twin Towers. Why I'd be I'd be okay though with having a comedian here if we did like we had you. Yeah, no, but I would definitely want somebody if we if we got the right. But why would you Jinks me? What I mean, why would you wanting to be Jinks? But things happens? What you say Jinks? Yeah, but Jinks is like you want bad things happened to me. No, I just said, Jinks, snowing outside, you want to slip and fall? No? No I did. Did I jinx you by saying ja? It's like an old childhood thing. Yeah, you know, It's like when you see a yellow, folks wack punch Bucky Yellow. I don't play that game. You don't play games that. I don't punch people. I don't wish Bill. You know what you can tell if we say the same thing at the same time. You know what you say, Hey, good luck to you man, good luck to both of us. Well, you know what, yow me a soota like that's what used to be saying annesota. Yeah, used to be okay when I grew up, when I worked, when I was in other jobs, if you said the same thing at the same time, wyll me a beer. I never had that. I wish that was the case. Then I can be the case so from now on, right, so then yeah. But but but when when I was growing up, it was always that's punch buggy thing. That's like a thing that people have not better to do. You see a Volkswagen, you get hit me. We don't play, you don't play what's that? Chinese? I certainly do not so Chinese fire drill? Okay, when when you don't you that you get out of the car and run around it or something like, that's the thing. It's called that. But I've never seen the Chinese person get out of the car and switch. See I don't know, therefore, only get the googler. I'm gonna googler. Why is it called the Chinese fire drill? There's nothing good's gonna come out of that, But I'm gonna find out. I'm gonna find out. Why is it called a Chinese fire drill? Brodie? And you don't want to speculate? No, no, we we used to talk about this, and then no we didn't. We talked about the rules of shotgun. Shotgun. That's a different that's who. And by the way, we should get to that one day on the show. Oh, here we go on this show. Now be careful, okay, it says, uh, this is from NPR NPR National Public Radio. What is so Chinese about a Chinese fire drill? Well, what's the deal? Um? It can be described as a form of vehicular musical chairs. Why car full A car full of people, usually teens, stop at a red light. Everyone then gets out and runs around the car until just before the light changes back to green, with all participants jumping inside the closest store. Anyone who fails to get back into the cars left behind as the rest zoom off. I didn't know that was the ending the kit in the back seat with no driver's license is suddenly driving okay. The most it references in the opening of the early seasons of the classic seventies Sitcome Happy Days and with rich in which Richie Cunningham and friends can be seen racing around his car holding up traffic. UH. In the height of the nine fifties and sixties, it developed into two meanings. The first was the prank. The second was a traffic accident that happened. A scene of great confusion. Right. It goes on to say, I don't know, man, I don't know. It's a lot of it looks like it goes back to World War One. It's nothing fun. I thought it was something fun. It's not. Google it yourself if you want to hear that three pages. It's not. I don't think it's a no, it's nothing like that. So you think Chinese people are are going, yeah, yeah, we do the fire drill. We get it. I don't say that they do it. I'm just saying that why is it called that? I mean, we have phrases in every day lexicon that are coined and we always ask why is it called that? Like the obvious one is, why are we park on a driveway and drive on a parkway? No, that's not like that stuff. But that doesn't have involve religion. Race. Let me let me, let me hold on an idiomatic expression. Okay, we have adiomatic expressions and we don't know why half for them. Remember you can't spell adiomatic. What out the word idiot exactly? But you well, you know it's it's idiom madic. There's a t there. Yeah, but it's not in order. And say it was an order, said it would spell it, it it would be idiot. Mat I said, you can't spell it without the word idiot. I didn't say idiots. Part of the word idiot is not an idiot. I didn't say. I didn't say it was. It was a prefix. I didn't say that the idiot is not an idiot. I didn't say it was the root word. I just said you couldn't spell it without those letters, without the letters. But you didn't say that. I said you can't sell without the word. I didn't say you couldn't say the word idiomatic without idiot. I said you couldn't spell it without the word idiot. You could take the letters out of idiot and take you have to take out the M you'd say, just have mag the the M A and the I C. Yeah, addictive. I'm not being a dick. Hey kind of speaking of he was talking about Carolines on Broadway. Shout out to Broadway, Brodie, you missed a great play. And this is okay, not a sponsor, okay, pointing for the jingle. Oh, by the way, I want to read you a tweet and and this is I want if you're a fan of this podcast, if you're a fan of the Brooklyn Boys, and you must be because you're listening right now, du you will love the play that Goes Wrong again. Not a sponsor. I just got a chance to see it. This play, Brodie, is so funny. You, of all people would love it. If you can imagine everybody you know, it's it breaks the fourth wall of comedy. How do you break a fourth wall comedy? It's breaking the fourth wall. Yeah, it's basically is when like, first of all, it's can talk to the audience, right, they do talk to the audience. But at eight o'clock when the show starts, the show is not ready to start. There are still handy men fixing the set, stuff breaking Okay, it's funny, don't give In the course of the show, the set caves in. But that's the whole show. It's in the commercial. But anyway, if you're in town, if you're ever in Times Square and you want a mindless, funny, laugh out loud, physical comedy slapstick show, please go see the play that goes wrong. You will die laughing. That's all I'm gonna say. So I want to reference life of Stacky. That's her name and her Twitter What's up, Stacky? She says, shopping at the grocery store and I hear a girl say, oh mg, that will totally match my Chuck Taylor converse from from Journeys. So she tweets us and she says, I yelled, my god, hit the jingle. Couldn't she just say sneakers? Was well, the girl at the grocery store she had to say she needs this would match my converse Taylor that I got a Journeys sounds like something I would say, right. Oh, the jingle is in the minds of our listeners. I love that, yet they're playing it in their brains. Oh, by the way, shout out to fuck Jerry U fuck Jerry on Twitter and Instagram? Is that who did it? Oh? Yeah, everybody's been sending us this is great and people are tagging us in it. Do you think he listens to our show? I don't know. I thought about that for a second. So Fuck Jerry is a guy named Elliott so and so and l and and fuck Jerry. It's basically one of those meme guys. Oh, the guy's like a fat you. He posts all these funny memes. No, no, the fat Jo, Fatjo. He's not like just some fat Jo like, he's like Harvey Weinstein. So so yes, so he does memes like like the fat You. Uh Jerry. And the other day on Jerry, he took a picture of a concrete wall that says, is this real Continental Breakfast is not breakfast. It's not real breakfast. It's not real breakfast, and it looks like it. It was not real. Somebody spray painted that on a concrete wall, and he took a picture of it and posted it. And it reminded us of a previous episode of The Broken Boys where I complained basically about Continental breakfast breakfast. If you're hearing this, you know what we're talking about, because you listen in order. You you think that they listened to in order. And if you're not listening in order, and this is your first episode, let this be a reminder to you. Listen order. You need to listen order. You need to, We should have to you don't, Yeah, because if you don't listen in order, we're gonna be referencing ship that are inside, jokes that are only inside to the people that we're listening in order and heard them in order. To begin with. Yeah, by the way, on my walls, you know what, if you're listening for the first time right now, fuck you, Agnes, right speaking what that means the person who listened their pressing play on this podcast right now is saying themselves, what the hell did you mean by that? Right? Well, you don't know because you didn't listen in order. Okay, speaking of fun, you Agnes on my Walkers and Talkers podcast, episode ninety which one up, uh today, So the same day you're this podcast went up and uh, somebody tweeted at us and tweeted us at Walker at Walker's Underscore Talkers, but referenced free dessert from this podcast. How's that possible they listen to both podcasts? How is it possible. Well, they listen, but they listened in order. No, No, what I'm saying is yes, but they listened to Walkers and talkers. But we're referencing things we've said. And so I made a I said something about we have some crossover listeners and I said walking dead. I think I said funk Megan, and I said, you know what, And for those people, listen to the Brooklyn Boys podcast, Fuck Henry, Funk, Agnes and Fox Stacy. And we're keeping a list because I'm keeping a life. So we get to like episode fifty, will do a recap of the fun. Everyone's gonna hate us, you know, like you called out. Do you think people would be offended that we don't call out their name? Well, remember, Agnes was the name I made up for the girl CVS because I didn't know her name. Stacy is the name I made up because I assumed that was the girl's name in the Revolving Door. Henry is actually the guy's name because I read it off his name tag on it. So I'm trying, you know, with names I make up, like Agnes. I'm hoping there's not a lot of Agnes. Is my guesses it wasn't Agnes, but but them. By the way, Brodie, on the last podcast, the fifteen Minute Morning Show, you threw a little zinger at me as the jingle was playing. I was, we were talking, we're sharing our storm stories and the lad thing I gotta ripped on the cholly booth. That's fine, we'll get there. Fifteen minutes the fifteen minute Morning Show, and we're talking about our storm memories. And my favorite storm memory from me as time was running out, was in Hurricane Gloria. Now I know hurricanes are not to be taken lightly, but this one was by the time the after effects got up here back in whatever it was, the the the hurricane was kind of weak, but it was still windy. So we had off from school and my friends and I went outside to play with the ball and I was pitching, and I threw a wicked curve ball because obviously when it's windy out and it's a hurricane going on the windows over, it's like, I don't you don't have to be a good picture. And you already said is your one sports highlight, And you're right, you said it was your snow highlight. I said, it's your one sports light highlight. Every yeah, and then and then the music ended. I didn't get a chance to rebuttle right. So here's the thing, Um, you really like baseball, love baseball. You sort of like football. I know I love football too, not as much spaceball. Yeah, baseball, but you probably like fantasy football more than you like regular football. Like, you're not a stats guy. You're like, you're like the Giants, but you don't love like crazy crazy being at the games. Yeah, games are fun. Then when it comes to it comes to playing the sports, you're not a player. You're not. You hit well, but then you have to run and field lefty pull hitter down the right field line. You could put your entire team in left in right field, in right field. And that's really what Scar is gonna hit it. Bald freak Ronnie, when we were used to play softball, you guys grew up together, Yes, bald freak Rannie and I we grew up in Brooklyn and we would go to the schoolyard and play softball. Everybody did. Yeah, Ronnie would sit at short stop, he would take his glove off. He would sit on his fucking glove at short stop with his hands folded criss cross apple sauce style, or we used to call Indian style because because it wasn't political. No, now you have the kids call cristling up, pretzeling up? What happened to Cris Cross apple sauce? You can't do that because apples people will be offended. Apple growers were offended. Sons of bitches well, and also criss crossed. You know, one of them died. So so now just say we're a cross who died criss across? Well, it was Chris and they both Chris. The Chris Cross will make you jump jump the cross right. The Daddy Mack oh is Daddy Mac and mcdaddy. One was Daddy Mack. Yeah, the Daddy Mac will make you The macdaddill make you. Yeah. Well one of the what Daddy Mack is dead or macdaddy? Yeah, it's like see music Factory, See is dead? Which one villis or Coles? Uh? It's calls because I know Cleave Ellis. I did a song with him. He's still here, right, did you call him today? We don't know that. I don't know he's the live right now, but but I did so I did work on a Yankee song on him a few years ago. So bald freak. RANI used to sit at shortstop on his glove, and you know as he was, as you do when you're in right field, exactly because no ball hit you. See the problem with you in the outfield. First of all, I'm gonn interrupt here because that's what we do here. You're left handed, so you need a lefty glove. Now, when you're a special needed person, when you excuse me, a special needed you have, you have special you have needs that are special when it comes to sports. I mean, anyway you want to take it. If you, let's sayre a vegetarian, right, some people bring their own celery sticks. They bring things to the party. They bring drinks. If they're like they don't drink, they might bring an alcoholic beverage whatever. As a left handed baseball player, you can't show up to a game and be like, hey, good, are your glove because there might not be any lefties there right there, right, you have to bring your glove. I always brought my glove to the games. So but I wonder why, what do you wonder why? Because if the balls hit directly to I've yet this. You catch a ball, it usually does. I've seen you with a drink in your hand. I've seen the ball usually in hand. That's what happens. Check selfie like, look at me in the field. Scary as a fan who sometimes is on the field. So if the balls hit the right field, you spend the first three seconds going wow, he hit that ball really well, and then realize you have to go get it. Yeah, it's not like you run towards it. You watch it go past you. And then when people like got the ball, you're like, alright, okay. This stems from me not being very athletic, and that comes from a childhood scar, not a physical scar. But because back when we used to play these games again, you said it, I love baseball. I love I'm okay with football basketball. In fact, by the way, at the d up on cancer event that I did the other day, hold On, hold On still the best name? Did you d I was? I was. I was up on on some guy I was dealing up on. They asked me to play and I refused. You fell down last year backwards into the cross. Marcus Coon's from the Giants, the Old School. I actually he was a retired linebacker. I was going for a rebound and he was running after the rebound on the opposing team, and he I was I was trying to get the ball before it went out of bounds into the stage. Tried to box out of football player. No, no no, no, I was going towards the ball. I was running after the ball was going out of bounds and it landed on it hit up our team first. I literally went went for it. He pushed me out of bounds into the stands. Anytime, I didn't get on the court for d up for Cancer Against Cancer because, unfortunately, Brody, I have a fear of entering the game. I don't like your teammates. I don't like playing softball. I refused to get on the court. I sat there and I did the invisible coach guy. I was like, kind of like the pointing I was pretending by the way. I watched the video of you falling into the crowd. On the way down, you grabbed some kids popcorn. How did you manage to do that? It was it was terrible. The whole front row got injured. It was not a good thing. But you grabbed a handful of popcorn, and the kid was my name was killing me for days. So so the bottom line here is I don't get on the court. I hate it. I have a fear of it. I and it stems from my childhood. And it was because I used to get picked last. Whenever there was a team, I was always the last one picked. Is like, and then the team that got Scary Jones was given the scary handicap. You have to explain that first of all. If you don't, you don't know what a handicap is. It's when somebody gives, like, if you have a bowling handicap. Let's say I'm a one thirty average, right right, if I'm bowling some of those at won seventy average, they'll give me a forty point handicap, so that technically we're both won seventy bowlers. And then it becomes who had a better day? Did he bowl at one eighty and I bowled a one fifty. I bowled twenty points over what I normally bowled, plus my handicap, I would win this. This is what allows you to compete fairly. Golfers do it right. It's so it's a handicap meaning we're gonna help you because everyone else is better than you. That is, so you're saying that if the team picked you in baseball or softball or whiffle ball? How many runs did they get? Hold on? Calling Bald Freak Rani into the studio styling real quick. Um, all right, so while you're waiting for Ronnie to come in, I'll tell you a quick story about me when I was younger, when I was in camp. I'm a ballplayer, right, Hey, hey, bald Freak Rani. Hey, it's scary and brody. From the Bald from the Bald Freak from the Brooklyn Boys podcast. From the Bald Freak podcast. What are you doing on my podcast? I don't know. This guy has a problem with speaking. Remember when we used to play ball back in the day, Well, play with my balls. Why could you come in here when you have a free moment? Please? We need you for a second year. You have to explain this to broke and I have. I have a one minute story, so take your time. I'm come in sixty seconds. So in day camp when I was like eight nine years old, I was a little chubby, so people assumed, oh, we'll put him at catcher. He probably can't play. Oh my god. They used to do that to me. Yeah, well but you sucked so catching in Major League baseball is a really hard position. But when you play softball in the park, you usually put the guy back there just to stop the pitch from rolling away. And then it's a play at the plate someone else wants. And then, by the way, that's the ultimate insult. Like if you're usually like in softball, they're like, I don't want to get into who they put back there, but they usually put the worst player. That was. Man, you don't tell the worst player. You don't tell the worst player that when the throw is coming home, the pitcher is gonna run to cover or the first baseman's gonna run. So what happens is they stand there like they're gonna take the throw, and the first baseman jumps in front of them and grabs it, and they're like, my only play of the game, way at the plate. At the plate happens. Yeah, but you were like, everyone's like gay, just be the bat. So they would make chubby Chubby David like that, Oh, we'll take the skinny kids who look like they can run fast first, and a lot of them were like pretty boys who didn't play. They just look good. They look like they're athletes, and they couldn't play. And then I would play and get picked last. And I'm I'm fundamentally sound. I know where to throw the ball, I can turn up to play fundamental I'm I'm a solid baseball player. No you are. You're very good, and I take it seriously. So it wasn't until like the second to third wee get camp where people like, holy shit, David can play. You pitched with a cast on? I did. Yeah, like eighteen innings wasn't very smart. Well, because nothing stops you from playing baseball. I slide on concrete. I don't care. I love the The point is people sometimes will judge you by your appearance and assume you can't play, and then they're wrong. In your case, they nailed it. But because I gotta be honest, I look at you and I'm like, this kid can't play. I appreciate that. Thanks. Well you just fucking you just you're ripping on me. You're ripping on me. Yeah, because you're terrible. All right, Well you look terrible. Wow will you look awful when you I'm like, you don't know, but but you sur eyes people see. That's I'm talking about when I was eight, I'm talking about currently. I'm like, if you see Brody walking through playing stuff. This guy can't play softball. But you're you're surprisingly good dick. You're no, You're you're a bigger dick. I said you look like you can't play baseball. I didn't say you look like shit. What I said, I don't know what I mean. You physically look like shit. You look like you know, you just you don't upon first glance, you don't appear to be athletic or a person that could play the game. But bod Freak, first of all, have you looked at a baseball team bar Tolo cologne played to them? You are the bar Tolo? What is this that you're painting a picture? That bar Tolo cologne was three hundred pounds cologne. You and I weigh the same right now? Yeah, we do. So what are you talking about? I'm just saying, you know, I'm just five eleven. Okay, you're not five eleven and a half that best? And what are you about? Eleven? Out of here, bald Freak, Please, you're my buddy from life right here, bald Freak, another Brooklyn boy, he's another Benson, another one. The fact that three people ended up on this show from the same neighborhood is said that you comparing Brody to Bartolo co. How is that nice? Brody was ripping on me from my no I said, Scary's not an athlete. Well, that's true, and then he said, only the first to admit. I said, when I was eight years old, I was I was chubbier in my day camp than some of the other kids who were skinny and looked like they could run fast. Right, I'm just saying, and I wasn't fat. I was just a little heavy your physique. I'm not saying anything. I was on steroids when I was a kid because I was sick. You know that, right, So okay, but I feel like, yeah, I was taking human growth hormones. Listen, So I used to get picked last. But I was a better ballplayer than almost all the other kids in my group. And I'm just saying that side of you terrible physicality. It was not terrible physical terrible physicality. And current day, you see Brody walk onto a softball field, you might if you don't know him and you don't know his abilities, you might second guess he'd be like, you know what, this guy's probably man? Are you saying this because you are completely the worst, So you need no. I'm saying this because I was being honest, but Brody was was was throwing daggers at me. First, I've seen pictures and video of myself playing. I look fine. No, yes, because what do you mean. I'm talking about the prejudgment when people are picking teams. You have video. Yeah, we played celebrity softball games all the time. The video you mean, I thought you meant like from back in the day, back and it didn't have video. We're talking about the current day, current day softball games, like the team outings for I heeart media physical, like you know media day. He's like the guy with he's got at the he's got the thing on his arm, he's got the thing at another thing on my leg. Now didn't you have like, well you had a problem with cast on my arm surgery. I'm not the guy who wears equipment, so you gotta give him resilience points. But I did tell I did tell him. I said, I gave him a compliment, bald freak. I said, Brodie, I'm like, you are awesome even it, even playing with a cast and an injury. But you crushed your great ball player despite the fact that you look like ship when you get on the field. But no, no, no, people pre judge you. So I'm saying you couldn't pre judges me except you apparently. All I'm saying is you can't judge the book by its cover. What looks like ship? What does that mean? Like his fashion statement, No, I'm saying, like, you don't appear to be shorts. I wear the right appropriate attire. You do you? You wear jeans. You don't even have appropriate shorts. He's right about that. He does wear the proper attire where you look like you just came, you know, from the club, and you went right to the off. He has a glove. Probably he has a glove that still looks new because he doesn't use it from the disco ball to the softball. But listen to me for a second ball freak I wanted. I was telling them how you used to sit on shortstop on top of your glove and hold that thing. I one more thing. And when we play these games sometimes when professional athletes, we played with Boom Rossayasin, we played with Joe Tor was our coach. They look at me and they say, and Craig Carton too, well, he's not a professional athlete. Nobody on this podcasts. Creig Carton shouted me out on his podcast Cig and We Love You Love Creig. Okay, when when Joe Tory looked at me, he said, what position do you play? Because they look like a ball player? I said infield, second base, first base, preferred third base if you want to get no problem. He looked at you and said, right field. You'll come in the fourth inning. So finally we aren't talking about the Joe the privilege of playing with Joe Tory with me and say, oh, you're not the fucking statue of David. You're not chiseled. I'm gonna put you and he listen, what position you play? You look like a ball player? And I said, I'll I'll play second base if you'd like. You're flexible just at you. I'm not gonna take my penis out here. I'm flexible on the ball. The same Joe Tory didn't even ask me. He said, you're gonna lead off and play a short stop, that's right, which was a mistake because it was a mistake. No, I did all right, But but I will say this, Um, they did treat you like the tower boy. He did Joe Tory did treat Sky John. I was taking Snapchat videos while he was in the outfield. I'm like, dude, I'm playing. You remember the video. It was called look at that ball go and went right past him, but didn't like the first guy get up in the game. It was a run. We put scary and right fired because that's where you put and they saw Scary and hit the ball the right. I'll correct myself. I was catching and I remember the catch. I remember that, okay, but we did only because we were calling balls and strikes. I was pitching in a game where we have an umpire calling balls and strikes. You don't put the scrub behind on plate. You put them in right field. I don't want to scrub behind home plate when you're not calling balls and strike. Joe Tori tells me to play that position. I'm gonna go catch and all the fame, Joe. I'm ready to play anyway. The guy was a left handed power hitter, and you could tell the guy could hit as soon as as soon as he took a swing, he just scary did that float where he kind of just floats. He sees the ball and he just floats right past it goes over his head inside the park home running couldn't have been What did you agree though, that I am not? And this is why I really wouldn't you agree that I am not the most athletic person because I'm a little gun shy. I'm a little I'm a lot gun shy, and I don't want to play the sport or sports or whatever it is not basketball. And it's because it stems back from childhood when I used to get picked last first, and it gave me a complex. Nobody encouraged you get a complex because you will picked last, and thencouraged me to play or get better when I was played at last. And then the worst part was when you guys, the team that had scary Jones on it had the scary handicap And why don't you tell everybody what the hell that was? Well, it could have been anything, could have any sort. Will give you give you a run, We'll give you know usually it was it was baseball, if it was basketball, will give you like five points. Are you laughing at you know it's you playing the odds here. You know you got the you got the run to the litter. You need you need a little change Now, that didn't give me a complex. Where were the that was somebody's got to be the worst came from the main streets. I want to say that that was bullying. That was I was being and therefore my skills didn't have a chance to develop. I was like a veal. Never I was a veal. You got a veal is like a pre PREMI I never ever got to realize my full potential. I never was encouraged to do better us in basketball. You never gave me the freaking ball. You never you said scary because then you threw it over the backboard when when we gave it in the hand. And that's not an exaggeration. I did have the scary, patented layup where I stood in that one spot was my sweet spot on the right hand side, over the net dropping it down. Now, I used to come on, Ronny, you knew about the scary lay up. Yeah, but that meant that you maybe could make the layup there. It wasn't a guarantee that you would miss in that spot. It's not like you would make it every time, but you used to. This is what the strategy was. Scary, try and get a rebound, and when you get it. Don't even dribble it, just throw it to somebody. Oh, you were terrible at basketball softball you kind of you did develop a little bit. You had a nice left handed can't try the field, you can't run the bases, but you you eventually learned how to how to hit. You used to we had like a short porch, remember in the short in Dyker school yard, and you used to hit it off the fence all the time. But it was a designated swinger right, That's true. He didn't have that one. And and the Scary patent did lay up in basketball, but I don't remember that. But but if Scary comes up on to hit when men on base, he'll will knock him in. He'll throw him out at first, but he will knock him in. He he'll hit a line drive to right center, right field every time. It is a sight to see, by the way, scary like running for a ball or running down on the first baseline is a little bit of a waddle there. But okay, and again, what does that have to do with bullying. I don't know. Scary handicap was the bullying part because it was almost like the team that had me, that picked me last it's like, oh, we got stuck with Scary What does that mean? We got to give them a couple of extra put in fairness, why should the people that are kind enough to pick you suffer with a loss the handicap kind enough like you don't have a choice the air, you know, you do the whole. No, no, no, get back to the handicap in this case, by the way, we mean as explain handicap in the sensitive time you want to run. I explained what a sports handicap is, right, that sports handicap. There you handicap sports handicaps. So why was it that that the team with Scary Jones had the sports handicap? Was I really that much of a liability to the team the detriment, Yes, no hesitation, And that right there, my friends, in a in a nutshell, is why I never developed my sports abilities? Is that that should have been motivation to not suck? No, somebody somebody kicks in then you face at the beach. Did you not diet some guns going? Did you not see Rudy, did Rudy give did did Rudy's accept not getting into Notre Dame? No, he worked his ass off to get into Did Ruddy accept not being on the team. No, he worked his ass. Rudy, Rudy, what is the scary Jones montage video of you, like taking the groundballs at third base or practicing your your free throws a fire? Rocky could never happen. Rocky got told he was worthless. Did let him stop? The karate kid? The karate kid? Kardi kid? Sweep the leg? Where were you? You want to crane your leg? You could fall over, You could argue if you're going to use those movies that he had no mentor, Well, let me ask you, Well, that's exactly my Can I ask you something? Every single theme they were every single day. Rudy didn't have a mentor he found the janitor. Well you get ask me. Your dad? Was your dad athletic at all? No? And that's and that's part of the problem, because I don't even recall your dad like ever, my d encouraging you to do sports. Did you ever play little league like organized ball at all? That's that's it's your dad's fault. My dad was the one to bullied you. My dad took My dad would take me to make games, but he wouldn't play ball with me because he wasn't really athletic himself, so maybe that was there. The Tony Skery handicap. I'm gonna call him right thy years earlier. I'm not gonna call him right now because I don't want to. Your brother Stephen doesn't look like a ball player either. He's never played his keys on his belt. Now, those guys don't play by they were growing up now that anything about it. I'm thinking about my father and his brother, uncle Michael Tommy who passed away. Nobody was really athletic. I don't think anybody really the scaries are not athletes. So don't blame man, blame genetics. You have a generation, you have multi generations. I know I didn't play. It would have been nice if the boys, the Brooklyn Boys, that the old school crew, someone would have been my mentor and would have rissen to the occasion. I'm just saying, well, what did we want to take you when they're a wing? Did you say we just did you say, hey, Ronnie, hey, can we spend a couple of hours on Saturday just having a catch? Never never know? Did you say let's go to the bat in cages, let's go practice. No, but we would come over my house and play double dribble, right, it's not in his d N. A kind of double sports games on on, you know, on the video. And he was great at that. He was great at Super Mario Brothers. You know, that's where he excelled. If I need a guerrilla beating in a race car to call, he was the guy. But as far as like physical ability, the desire wasn't there. That's my point. Maybe that's what it was. It was. There was no passion, no passion. Listen, this guy's playing with a broken wrist. My first year little league I had. I started off the first six or seven games. I wasn't hitting at all. I didn't even want to swing. I just stood at like a brick. And my grandfather, who taught me how to play baseball, took me to the park. We spent the whole day. He pitched to me, he forced me to hit. I said to my go, I can't have to be better. He was, well, let's go to the park, and the whole day I just sat there swinging, swing and swing and swinging. He brought me to a handball court and he had me throw a ball against the wall. I didn't never put you put tape on the wall and made a strike so on I threw it that wall until my arm was gonna fall off. Every weekend I went and through against the wall. And we've got to make effort. You can't play guitar by just looking at a guitar. Oh, I went to concerts. I can't play guitar. Why you gotta play guitar? You have to practice. And what Tony scary to? He took you to the deli and got some mult and do you eat like a pro fact that they did too. I mean he's scary was the eater? Right, I still am scary headed enthusiasm for food that he just does not have. For physical activity, I got into different things. If you put a Capitola sandwich on first space, you can get so fast forward fast forward to today when they say when they say Scary want you to we want to put you in the game for the d up against cancer and I and I say no, it stems from my childhood, which I did. I said, no, Yeah, you go to the playgrounds. Best. You can go to the playground right near your house and shoot hoops all day. Right, you can still do the Scary Jones montage and you still choose not to do it, but on the put on the rip gray sweats. My friends have now taken me off the email chain for anything sports or athletic because they just know that I'm not. I'm not gonna go, but you know what, maybe I want to play playing next. If you're gay, you are gay, I would take you off the list that send it out nude picks to everybody. You wouldn't want them, nude girls. You wouldnt want to, So why should you be on the sports list. Maybe maybe now's the time to do you want to go bowling? It's never too late. You do on ball. I don't want to bawl. I think it's the guy doesn't play any sports. You gotta start somewhere. It was too late when you were fourteen. It's definitely too late. Now. See what I'm saying. I don't know about that. I see what I'm saying that. This is exactly what I said. There's some my childhood is haunting me. Fair enough. There are some tendance in your body that will not stretch. If the three or three of my other friends were here, they would pile on what Ronnie said, and and then they would continue to rip. That's your motivation, man, that's for you to go, you know what, and put on the rocky NA I'm do a montage and start get get get a wall and a handball. Caught up throwing that ball? Push up right now? Can I see? I can't even do one. That was another thing was just fat by weird Yankee you were doing. You ain't fat, you ain't nothing. That was weird Yankee. Yeah, but you got that reference. Yeah, well it's a weird I know you for way too long. Weird reference. You got the reference you did too, the subway station. Really weird al, You ain't fat, you ain't nothing. Remember Ronnie and I were in that interview with Weird Al when you asked that question, the greatest question every the weird question We're not going to play on this podcast. I saw you at the airport TMC was rolling. I have all your albums, even old stuff. Danny stupid huh speaking of childhood ship bald freak before you run. And by the way, I want to apologize. I want to apologize. I want to apologize for the two thirty two thirty bill because Ronnie was was bullied a little bit, and you know, I don't know what it was, but my friends were into wrestling at the time. It was w W W how everybody was back then. Back then it was w W F not the mania was running wild all over our junior high school. Yes, and and and as they would keep Ronnie at the back of the line to leave the classroom. The teacher was up front, and all of a sudden, in two by two they would leave and they would turn the corner into the hallway and we would be in the classroom and three of my friends, including John Muscatella, would jump up. He would be on top of the table and he'd be like, what you're gonna do with all comania comes down on you? And they would pile, drive, take turns, pile, driving Ronnie into the floor. Like Ronnie was like, what the hell do I get? You know? They way they would put him in a chokehold, and it was wrestling moves. People the people's elbow intoxicated by the wrestling world, and they took their frustrations out of me. Yeah, that's bullying, bro, that you could comparing that to us given given three points to the other team because we picked you on our team. No, that's emotional billy bullying. You had physical bullying anyway, Well, thanks for bringing that. As you were as you were, Rema pol Lee, my favorite segment, Rema Policema Police, Rema police. Okay, we got some We got some tweets from because this. Yeah, they love the jingle and then they thought the police were behind them, And you know what I would do. I think about it. There have been a couple of pop songs that have had police sirens in them, and I always think how many times I hear it? Anyway, Grammar police. So I called Grammar Police on you. Uh one of our listeners did, I don't know if you have the tweet. Uh. So when we talked about on the fifty minute Morning Show today, and by today I mean Wednesday March, I'll the Strand Morning Show. I'll be the first to say that I screwed up. You said you took a picture of Charlie's here's a picture of Charlie Pooth and I yeah, I said that, Tarlli Pooth and me. What's the problem with that? Well, I explained it on the fifty mid morning sho I feel like people should just go listen to that. But remember remember it's after the after the subject of the sentence. It's I took the picture, right, it's oh, it's me. Also, if you removed Charlie Poot's name, you wouldn't say I took a picture with I'd say took a picture of me. So that's how you use the wrong one. People try to remember to say because they think that's the right way. Oh, I have to say I, but it's not. It's me, okay, okay. So the New York Giants have a new player. Name is Kareem Martin. He's reamed the Dream underscore r E E M the Dream. Right. So he said something to the effect of, uh, let me see what he said. Oh, he said, um, I'm so happy to be a part of the Giants organization. But he used a part as one word, which I've said many times apart is the exact opposite of uh, part. So it's a weird thing in English. So either you are a part of something which is too so you're apart from something. That's correct. So if you say a part is one word, you're actually a separate entity from them. You're apart from them. It's opposites. There is one right, right, So he tweeted out, great to be one word, a part of the giants organization. So one of our listeners uh tweeted and said, I think it was c J. He tweeted and said, where at David Underscore Brody And it copied me to the tweet, right, So now I'm copied to the tweet and now this guy's copied to the tweet Kareem Martin. So I was like, all right, I have to explain why he's copying me to the tweet. And I said, oh, uh, you're you're copying me because a part is two words, I get it. Sorry about that something like that. So he wrote back, Uh, just sent a picture back to me and c J. See Underscore J Underscore three and it's like a police patch and it says to correct and serve with an apple in it and it's his grammar police that. I love that. But I think he was being like, don't be a dick. So I wrote back and I said, sorry, Kareem, Um, it's just that we talked about a part in a part on our podcast on my show, and that's what he was referencing. Sorry about that, no offense, and he wrote back, L O L. I thought I had a right Initially I'm gonna blame autocorrect. Thank you, like like he appreciated it. So, Kareem Martin, I am not a New York Giants fan, but I'm a Kareem Martin fan because you're a good sport. We gotta we gotta tweet from the guy corner. I love the guy. He's the best. He's he did it on purpose. Okay, there is a I guess it was a stand that said jerk jerky hut like it was like like beef jerky high. But he put he positioned himself behind a pole of course. Yeah, we're the only thing visible was the word jerk, and it like jerk. That's the last part of the U and the t so and then to the poles in the middle, so it was like jerk. It nice. He says, they want you to watch, but I think he did on purpose, which is fine. That was cute. Shout out to one Vasquez, who tweets us an awful lot right. He wrote, I can hear David Brody and my head Asian isn't a nationality. Christian is a religion. You dumb fuck not meaning to me. So you put a picture of the billboard and it's a billboard for truth Ministry dot Com. I'm assuming if you search for this billboard and truth ministry dot com not a client, not a sponsor, not endorsement from them, of them. It's an Asian woman on the sign and it says, are you Asian and don't want to be? There's hope for change as if I'm implying, like turn to Christianity. But Asian has to do with where in the world you're from. Yeah, you can be Christian and Asian. You can be, but you can't be you can't change your actual change in you's Asian. You can't be changing Asian. You can't. That's your ethnicity. Or you could have all the surgeries and you want to not look Asian. If you have traditional Asian appearance, you'll still be Asian. I moved to New Jersey, I'm still from Brooklyn. That's correct, clearly. So there you go. So that that's another way. So thank you, Juan, f you to the Truth Ministry billboard.

And so though that's it for me as far as grammar police and uh great signage, I don't think I have any other Let me see I have any other signs in my signfall Oh, I got one? You got one. We talked about the wood Heaven Cafe and Pizzeria with the P I Z Z A R I A. Yeah, yeah, we did that last week. Okay, so I guess that I'm caught up on that. No more grammar police, but I will say that this pisces me off. Listen to this, Yeah, not try Google. Let's hear from the Brooklyn Boys searching for the latest podcast from Brody and Scary Boom. I can't believe that. How did it get your name first? Because it's listened and knows better. That's bullshit, man, How did your name come first? And Brody and Scary? That's okay? Elvis? Elvis had Scary and Brodie several times. No he didn't, he did not, But the majority of time he doesn't. He feels bad for you. He gives you know what, he gives you the hand he happy puts you dass. Not cool, man, That is not cool? Not cool? All right? Sure you use some email. I got a couple of Yeah, I get an email. I gotta use jokes. That sounds like it's mail time. Welcome, You've got mail. You can always email us at the Brooklyn Boys Podcast at gmail dot com. Please do um. This is I have a problem with this one. This one was a Grammar Police suggestion, but listen to what they say first. I love you both. You guys cracked me up all day, make my work day fly by. Brody loved that ups rant, still talking about it. Priceless. I played that episode three times from my husband and my family. Scary. Pop up Up Up ap up. You're awesome. You truly compliment each other. And as a fellow Brooklyn native from sheep Chat Bay, not tribe but Italian, I appreciate the b K flair. Keep doing you, guys. Attached is a picture from the Beach Boys concert on in Long Island on St. Patrick's. Sorry for the poor quality, but as soon as I saw it, I turned to myself and said, podcast you think a relatively popular, the older band like them would have their own Grammar Police. I love you guys. Gina. Well, I'm sorry to inform you Brodie, but there was nothing attached to the email, so I'm kind of excited to see what this picture was with the Grammar Police and the Beach Boys, but she did not attach the picture. She failed to attach it, but the rest of the email was cool. But so if you could, Gina, if you're getting this, Gina Torres, if you can. Uh that was by the way, it was like Rebecca Collins, she would have put an attachment. All right. Well anyway, Gina Torres, please uh send that picture along with we want to know what you're talking about? Uh? What else? Um? Now, Michael Michael Glittcher Brooklyn Boys, how about for a fan army name? What do you think of the sheep's heads? Then again, maybe a Brooklyn neighborhood references too specific for a national podcast. Just thinking either way, your podcast gets better and better every week. I've all rated it. We've already raded it five stars on iTunes, written review and I thumbed down the abe comment about eating while recording. Thanks for the great show and keep up the good work, Mike ps. I was the same person who wrote to you a few weeks ago when I saw I Heart Radio's website displaying February for the pod night. Yeah, thank you for calling the grammar police on the entire company. The entire company had the word February instead of the word February f E B r U A R A R ward as an extra R. They have since fixed the mistake. It was proud of February or something. Yeah, but Michael, thank you so much for going that step beyond and writing that iTunes review. We really could have used that, and for thumbing down Abe. Yeah bad. If I could just read one tweet from bry T, who tweets us a lot, he's at World's Okay Dad, which I think is great, and he's got a mug that says World's Okay Dad, not Greatest Dad. He writes a suggestion. Now keep in mind this is in text, so the way I read it is important. How about is a fan army name? He says, what about Brooklyn Boy Brigade for fan Army B B B or B three for short. My problem with that is if you write it down and it's not a problem, it just doesn't reflect ALA's show properly. Is that if you look at it, it could be Brooklyn Boy Brigade or could be Brooklyn's Boy Brigade, in which case it sounds like maybe like a gay night club. You're like a gay dancers, which is fine if you are in a gay dancer a gay club, but that's not our shop. So you look at it, you're like, oh, Brooklyn Boy Brigade or is it Brooklyn Boy Brigade, meaning it's a boy brigade from Brooklyn or is it the Brooklyn boy Brigade? I don't know, but either way, it just didn't look like it would people would get uh. Andrew Dorsyas writes about the fan army, Hey, Brewery and SCROTI see what I did there? Don't like that? Awesome? That wasn't the that wasn't a suggestion, awesome podcast highlight of my week. I left a detailed review on iTunes. But this email is about a name for your fan army. How about the other ones? It's a playoff of the word another one. You are the book and boys, we are the other ones. I could see it now, Hey, you also listen to the podcast? Yeah, I'm I'm another one. Get it, I'm another one? So there are another another one? So they're the other one. I'm gonna give point guys, Andrew d thank you. I'll give clever points there. But I'm not sold yet. No you're not? No? All right? Okay? How about omar? Omar Alette writes, Hey, guys, a huge fan of the brook Boys podcast. I got a product that I sell on Amazon, and I would love to be a sponsor, uh on my favorite I would love to be a sponsor on one of my favorite podcasts. Below is a link to my product that you will will be available any day now and it links to Amazon. But don't say what it is and we get paid. That's no free. Well, we also have to look at this, I O, Jacob, look at this beautiful Yeah we have. We can't talk about this because uh, Jacob has no Jacob who's our listener from Canada. We're not gonna we have to get back to him this week about the coffee related product that he sells on Amazon. Yeah, well, this is not a coffee related product. We also got a tweet, and again I'm so sorry, I can't keep checking all the tweets. We got a great tweet that said, I want to sponsor your show with food. Can I Can I have food? You know, provide food, so I said to Then I said, sure, where's your restaurant? He said, well, does it have to be my restaurant and I just bring food. Somebody's gonna go to somebody else's restaurants and carry food out right. Well, I appreciate that you send money, but cash we're looking for send cash. Yeah, that was a dick move right there. We just you've already stopped me as I was, by the way, and this is this is just conversational. You and I have a friend that has a podcast, right and he has a Patreon account p a t R in which listeners donate money to the Patreon account to support the podcast. With the podcast money, they use it to advertise the podcast, to help them get guests to buy shirts, to buy things to give away. And you know, I'm sure he keeps a few dollars for expenses. I don't know how I feel about that. Why, Well, person's gotta eat. Well, I understand that you gotta make money. I understand that. I don't know. I mean, I love to because I I think if our listeners wanted to give money to support the podcast, I will podcast. I would take the money and turn it right around into getting t shirts and giveaways if that was what we did, And I would consider that if we if we took the money and used it for giveaways with our logo on it, that'd be pretty cool. But that's not what this guy does. He does advertising, but he also does it to pay the bills for his home studio, which we don't have anyway, Danielle zig Ziegler or Ziegler Ziggler Ziegler but wrote to us on our Facebook page, we do have one of those, by the way, it's at the Brooklyn Boys. It's not really up kept. But but what what is it? It's not kept up Brodie? What is this? She screenshot at a Twitter conversation between you and Jason Isbell about Arcade Fire. Oh and and she wrote at the top everyone's talking about it hashtag not ironic. Oh um, you wrote, honestly, how is Arcade Fire a thing? Do the slot machines really make this better? And how bad would it be without them? Hashtag SNL because Arcade Fire played on SNL and you must have been tweeting, okay, And then they wrote Jason is Bell wrote, I like Arcade Fire. Their melodic and weird and making art. I think they were so good right out of the box that it'll always be a mistake to compare their latest work to their first couple albums. But I am no critic. My wife is the critic in the family. Plus, there a rock band and they were on TV. That's a good thing. So Danielle Ziggler found the need to screenshot that entire exchange and wrote everyone's talking about it hashtag not ironic. I don't know that not iron I think the hashtag not ironic was just a tribute to us. I think it relates to that conversation. Here's the thing. Arcade Fire was the musical guest on SNL last week. Arcade Fire, before I ever heard them to me, has a great name. I love arcades and like Arcade Fire. I thought this like a hard hard rock, all rock. I was thinking, what what kind of music? So I checked out the band. Let me, let me put on the radio, Sarcade Fire on one of the stations. I left it on and it was I didn't get it. I didn't get it. Just it didn't. It wasn't melodic, it wasn't rock. It was just something weird. But if you've ever seen Arcade Fire, they're even weirder. The lead singer is not a traditional looking lead singer, which is fine, but he sort of looks like your fat friend that shouldn't be in a band, right and uh, and not not that there's a problem with him being the sizey as he just looks like a bad jack black And then there's like ten people in the band. They were wearing like Jiffy pop popcorn bags of clothing, like shiny gold, weird clothing, and the song was weird and I don't get them, and people so they were they were trending on Twitter, and Twitter was blowing up with people saying they suck. I don't get them, and every once in a while someone goes, you just don't get them, man, you just get them. If you're a mainstream band, you should you should be like, you know, you're snl more than people should like them. But if you're a niche band or a niche band, if you for and only ten percent of the people like you or get you, or you have to explain it. Oh, you don't get them. They were screaming and wailing and it wasn't they jump around like they're awkward. They're like a band, Like how did these people get famous? I don't get Arcade Fire. If you get Arcade Fire, don't try to explain to me. Enjoy them, have a party. I'm just tweeting times. It's about a clever name, right, or a clever title to a podcast which gets more listens, right, which just happened to be boys from Brooklyn. That's okay, So that's my my was my riff. I ranted on it, Okay, I got unused jokes and I got shipped to complain about let's do this. Let me just start with one. Yeah, I got one, got one? Okay, you know, because I don't write that much. But you know, the day that we had St. Patrick's day in the studio, we had the elevator Construction Company bad pipers, they were, they were great, they were elevator construction you know works. Yeah, and they all gathered around the table and I just gave a note to Elvis and he kicked it back at me. The note was, which one of you is Otis? Yeah, that's a playoff of the elevator company. Every every elevator company is Otis or Staley. Right, So like basically, when you're in an elevator, you know, you look at is at the name of the guy an elevator, an elevator Joe. My guess has its ups and downs. My guess is Elvis didn't think the mass appeal mass audience would get the people know Otis. Come on, okay, you guys know Otis right now, if you're listening to this pods. When you go into an elevator, if you look at the floorboard when you first walk staring at the panel with the buttons on it, it always says, oh, it doesn't if it's a Staley or Staley whatever, either one of those could. We had Charlie pouthin studio this week and he was wearing a bright highlighter yellow outfit like a canary. Charlie Poots a great guy, but he admitted his okay, So I gave Elvis a highlighter and it said hold it up you could interview the highlighter be the same as jos he eat. When Charlie Pooth came in, held up the highlighter onto his sweatshirt and you couldn't see the highlight anymore. So I said, oh, the joke was Charlie Pooth's interview great, his outfit a highlight of my week. I didn't get to it. That's cute. That was almost as good as the Odors joke. That's why it was first. Dick uh I was just talking about the Heart Radio Awards and he said, oh, DJ Kaled was on the red carpet with his son, and I said, oh, we only the joke was he only his one kid? When's he having another one? Ll me yill me a beery, Y'll me a diet coke? Sound drink beer? See, I already got over. People were talking about have you have a smoked with your parents smoke pot? On the show. We're talking about people who have you have a smoke pot? We've done drugs, your family done smoke pot? I said yeah. I said, Uh, Scary smoked with his parents And I said, yeah, he smoked mozzarella. That's what Scary smoked. That's time we didn't do that joke. Um. Elvis was talking about how he was over somebody's house and uh, they made they didn't tell him, but they made pott brownies and ate them by mistake. And I said, oh, did they make him in their easy baked oven? He didn't do that. Brilliant joke, Thank you very much. Danielle on our show did a story about a kid who got caught. He shoved this Playboy magazine in a vacuum in the in the vacuum hose, and his mother didn't he want to use the vacuum and he was clogged and she found the Playboy rolled up in the hose. I said, if I remember being a teenage boy, the worst things he could have stuffed that did that hose? We didn't do that joke. Uh. Danielle was talking about how she was bullied in school as a kid for having a big nose. They used to call her two can and I said, Daniell Yells had big boobs. You're sure they weren't calling you two cans. We're didna get to that. Today we were talking about some kid. I remember the story. It doesn't matter. He had a Stranger Things theme birthday party. So if you follow Stranger Things, you'll get the joke. I said, Oh, was the kid eleven? Brilliant joke if you're a fan of Stranger that the main character's name is eleven. Danielle did a story. We're talking about Super Mario Brothers. Before that, there's a picture of Lui Jians a new picture for the new game Luigi, and it looks like he's got a lot of stuff in his crotch. She's packed and I said, yeah, he's a plumber. He's got a large pipe. Alvis didn't do the joke. Uh, Cardi beast pregnant right, I said, Oh, she's making baby moves. That was the joke of the week in my in my opinion, well thank you, that was the second joke of the week. I joke of the week. He actually did, and I present you my joke of the week. I was talking on someone online on St. Patrick's Day on the phone and she says, I what can I get? I want to prize? What can I get? So I wrote the joke for Elvis and he and he said, would you like a Gaelic play on words sexual double yes as a sexual innuendo. You know what's really bizarre? Wenutes this entire podcast. And you haven't the band o MD bitched about anything. You haven't. You haven't ranted, bro, I need a rant. I had three rants in the past three days that happened to me. I couldn't believe it got so bad. At one place, I took my daughter and my middle daughter. She said that was so bad I wanted to take my shoe off and throw it at them, like metaphorically speaking, that's how upset you was. I feel like you've got bad luck because I unless I see the brightest side of life, I don't know what it is. I don't look for things to rant about, but there's definitely times. You know, if I feel passionate about something, I'm gonna rant about it. But man, oh man, every day that goes by is another Bertie. Let's get get it out of your system. Lets people keep asking me for the dry cleaning rant. Not doing that today. Here's what I'm because. I because I want to do the timely one. All right, because this was on Twitter and people saw it. Come on, Brodie, you have to air your dirty laundry. A ha, you're funny. Speaking of which, Oh all right, we'll give you a mini rant. A mini rant. I have a service contract with my guests and electric company on my appliances, meaning if something breaks, they come to fix it, no problem, They parts everything included. So you pay like ten dollars a month for all your apply like each appliance, and one's nine dollars one seven. So I have a service contract on my dryer. Well, the dryer broke on Wednesday. I called him, made an appointment for Friday. Okay, it says, would you like to make an appointment for you? Yea which appliance? Press one for washing machine? Too for your gas dryer? So I pushed to make it appoint with my gas dryer for Friday. M the guy shows up my house on Friday. Keep in mind I had now look if you have if I spent most of my life and never had a washer and dryer. So I'm not complaining like pulling me my my dryer is broken. When you have a house and three kids, the dryer and the washing machine is very important. And we don't live near a laundromatt. So on Friday, I have my appointment. I rush home, I make sure i'm there. I'm The guy comes two hours later, No problem, nice guy. He comes to the basement and he says, that's a gas dryer. Yep, he says, uh uh. My paperwork says it's an electric dryer. Oh boy, He says, did you select electric dryer? I said, it's not even an option to select the electric dryer. It's said press tube to repair your gas on. Well, he says, I'm not trained on the gas tryer. I'm only trained on electric tryers. So I say, can't you go get a guy switch? Hey, call up Carl and say, hey, Carl, can you come down and do the gas. I'll switch for you. He says to me, No, those guys have their roots alright, I can't call Carl. I gotta do it myself. I can't do it. I'm not authorised. So I said, well, what am I gonna do. He's gonna makeing unappointment. I waited two days for an appointment, and now the weekend's coming. I said, what about later tonight? Can somebody come later tonight. Everybody's already booked up, so I said, so I gotta go to the the laundromat all weekend again. Not the biggest problem in the world, that's on my point. I pay for a service contract. So I called back after the guy leaves and I say, hey, Electric Gas Company, can you get me Carl or somebody else. Oh, I'm so sorry. We're booked up for the day. All our dispatches have already signed it. But here's nobody come to your house as when you guys messed up. Just well, the next appointment you can have is Tuesday from twelve to four. Funk that, oh, Paul ship Tuesday. I have service contract that I'm playing four don't pay us jokes music. So I said, oh no, oh no, you're coming tomorrow, and Carl better get his ass in here with the gas. The gas man better come. Not the guy that blew up my game in my house was ship in my bathroom. That's a different guy. Different guy. So I said, I want my dryer fixed Soday. Said okay, well we're gonna come Saturday, the next day. But what we can't give you a time because it's already scheduled. What are you talking about, Well, we'll be there between eight am and four pm. Oh hell no, I'm waiting all day on a Saturday. You should have been on Friday with the dryer guy because I have a gas dryer. So it's just while I get talked to a supervisor. Supervisors that gets on the phone. Me says the best we can do. The woman says, no appointments. The guys who says eight to four, A hell no, because well maybe we'll get lucky, we'll get too early. You gotta schedule appointment. At least try it. So I said, I'm not waiting eight to four on a Saturday. So they go, well, please take the eight to four, will do our best. I take the eight to four. I go on Twitter boot boom boom, boom, bullshit, bullshit, bullshit. Another super he says, okay, we'll be there. Between uh twelve and four. We're terribly sorry. It's on mistake. On Friday. Will be there, no problem. You got the parts to my dryer, no problem. It's again, we know what the problem is. It's a belt. Will be there. Guy comes to my house and of course, like three thirty, the tail end of the appointment, right, he takes a part the dryer. He takes everything apart. It's a boom boom in the basement. Boom boom boom. He comes back. He says, boom boom boom. He didn't say that. He says, you know what, I'm gonna go out to the car and just check for the for make sure we have the belt. Let me tell you something. When they go out to the truck and check for the part, that's because they don't have it. So I go. I watched him open the doors in the back of the truck. He looks around for like thirty seconds. Then he goes and sits down in his truck because he's popped up right outside of my house and he's on his phone and he's on his iPad and he's talking. Whoever ten minutes comes back like I wasn't watching him. He comes back and he goes, yeah, I looked all over the truck. We don't have that belt. We have to order it. So I say, order it. You're gonna have it overnight, it to me, Saturday to Monday, to days something, no standard shipping. Oh, I gotta play. Put the order in now, and they'll probably go out Monday, Go out Monday or get I said to the part of gout Monday. He's on the part of get processed Monday because it's already late in a day on Saturday, because it should have been ordered on Friday. So he says, I he look the order to go out on Monday. Figure it'll get to the warehouse, the warehouse, the mystery warehouse, wherever that is. He goes, you probably get it ground, dude, three or four days business maybe by Friday. Well, guess what the part. It's Wednesday. The part's not here, which means if the part comes Thursday Friday, what happens then then I gotta call make an appointment. So I'll be two weeks without a dryer. I've been slepping my wet clothes to the launder mat and drying my clothes myself, like I don't have a drunk and one that hung out to dry dark. So not only am I paying for such. So I call up the guest company and I say, I'm waiting a week and a half to have this thing facts to pay for service contract. I would like a refund on my service contract. So she says, well, right, we can give you a refund to the nine dollars for the month. Oh no, you're gonna give me a refund for the year, because I'm not getting that I paid like seventy dollars this because you get your money back on the service contract. Yes, I did. Good, of course you did. You got your free dessert. I got my free dessert, and you're coming to fix it hopefully. So I said, I have to use that money you pay for my car to drive to the drawer. Did I gotta sit there and wait? When I do my luxury at home, I'm watching television whatever. So so F they're good, good people. They're very nice to me. But f the situation, Mike, the situation of the Jersey Shore when you have against him. Now, I had one more little brief Twitter fight and everybody saw it. Okay, Amazon love them if you you when you shop on Amazon, you see something like you put it on your wish list. Okay, that means they store the stuff you like, so you're like, oh, I'll get it later. Or you can make it public if you want, and people can see what you want and then buy you a present. Oh, Brody likes this album, I'm gonna get him a birthday presents on his wish list. Like that. I needed to get a phone charger, and I had like three or four in my wish list. The one I wanted that I have previously not available anymore. So I have a wish list like a hundred and fifty things, so I wanted to So you know what I'm gonna do. I'm just gonna search my wish list for chargers and see all the charges that I've put on my wish list. There's no search window. Amazon redesigned their page. There's no search window to search the wish list could accompany that big I don't know. Now, there's a little window. Wait a second, hold on, that's a glaring error. Yes, there's a there's a little window in the spot that you think a wish list search engine would be, But what that actually is is a keyword search window. So if you put into keyword, like I'm looking for charger. It saves it to show you what you've searched for in the past. That's no, that's not gonna be helped to you, but help to me. So I tweeted Amazon. I don't have to tweet on my phone otherwise I read too. But I tweet Amazon. I say, hey Amazon, at Amazon, I want to search my wish list. I can't search my wish list. How do I search my wish list? I get a response back from at Amazon and they right back. Um, if you want people to be able to search your wish list, you need to make sure it's not private. If you're trying to search for a friends wish some stock answer right, then you need to make sure that list is in private. Just searched by their name, their phone number, with blah blah blah, All right back, Please read my tweet. I don't want to search for a wish list. I want to search within my own wish list. Well, first thing you need to do is make sure your list is in private, and then search for Oh my gosh, so so then I write so, Then I so I go, don't you dare tell me to search? I want to search read my damn tweet. Then I get a tweet from at Amazon Cares the people. I guess they have a division that cares, and the division does not care. I was going to say, shouldn't the entire I Amazon care? I don't know, So I tweeked them back at Amazon Cares and I say, hey, at Amazon Cares, how do I search my wish list? Well, if you'd like to search for a wish list, make sure the wish list and give me the same that that ridiculous fuck you, Amazon cares. You don't care. So I I d M them and I'm waiting to hear back on how there's a glitch they redesigned the and it's not there, and if it is there, I'm blind. But nobody there will answer my question because they're sitting back former spot. It's like you have a called help desk and you go high. I'm calling about my Windows eight point one, uh computer, I'm on the computer now that I'm calling about. What do they say? Are you on the computer? Now? You're calling about? Oh my god? Because they're reading a script and they didn't get to that question. I got one more rant hold on. What they actually say is are you out the computer right now. Okay, why did I just say that? Because we played a phone tap today where I did an accent. I didn't say where it was from, nor did I say anything about the culture or people that speak that way. And then somebody texted in racist. If you call okay, if you call that, if you call everything racist, then nothing is racist. You do you you you desensitize people to the word. The word racist has to do with hate and discrimination and oppression and making fun of people for for simple traits they were born with. Okay, if I do a Russian accent, the do a Russian accent, even if it's not the best. With Russian accent racist stereotyping, but it's not. It's doing an accent. If I do a British accent, but I do a British accent, Governor, nobody says you're a racist against British people. But if I'm talking like this and like speeding into that stereotype, hold on, that's mocking people and making them sound like Speedy Gonzalez the rat. So you're saying that I'm racist, But if you do, if you bet, no, I'm saying it's inappropriate. It's it's it could be that's an opinion. At Okay, what I'm I think to say something with the racist let's stick to racist Speedy Gonzalez and saying that represents people is not okay. I'm just saying that that sounds no. But but somewhere, somewhere about a decade ago, you're no longer allowed to do a Chinese accent, a Chinese American accent, even though you're not making fun and you're not making up words. You're speaking exactly the way someone who works in a in a restaurant or an American person with Chinese accent, you're you're doing the accent. Okay, that's considered offensive, right. I don't like that because if you're if you're speaking the way they speak, you're doing an impression. You're not making fun of, you're not making faces, you're not doing any You're just doing it. We're recreating whatever, a conversation that you heard. Whatever. So I did this phone tap where a woman called one of our hotlines, right and uh, I spoke in my normal voice as a wise ass, and I write and she called back demanded speaking supervisor. Well, I was the only one here, so I had to change my voice. So I said, there's the supervisor, right, I've nothing wrong with that. Well, someone said that's racist. What I found is most but that complain aren't that? It's guilt? Right? Like one guy called up once Elvis made a joke about being gay, and he's like, it's offensive to gay people. How dare you? You know you don't know what it's like to be gay? And I said, sir, are you gay? No, but it's wrong. My guess is that person was an Indian. The last thing I would ever do is make fun of a culture or people. So my point is if I can do a Southern accent. Now, if I do a Southern accent, and I do, and I make myself out to be less than intelligent or stereotypical, offensive, that's offensive. But this to to to honor a great Southern accent or or a Philadelphia accent or Boston accent. You're not making fun and you're doing a prank phone call. I'm with you. You know, it really bothered me to see that today. Stop saying everything is racist, and if you say everything is racist, then no one's gonna take you you seriously when you actually something is racist.
