Speaker 1: Start Up, dot Up, start Up, Brooklyn.

00:00:04
Speaker 2: Boy, start Up, Brooklyn Boys.

00:00:09
Speaker 1: Start Up, DAP they making noise? D d Up, start Up, dad Up? Episode three thirty seven or is it three thirty six? It's three thirty seven? Is it? Wow? Yes? Man, time flies when you're having fun. Is this what we call fun? Well, we're going to be approaching eight years of doing this, so as time does fly. That's crazy. I had to think that through. He is looking at you and you're in the same shirt as you had on yesterday. What's up with that? No, I have two of the same shirt. And then you're like, anyone know that? Though? Well, how would anyone know that I'm wearing the same shirt twice unless you pointed out, well, good thing that I did. Well, No, I got the same shirt up a bit. I'm wearing a shirt that I was gifted at our meetup back a couple of years ago when we did that meet up with the Steak Dinners in the city at the Benjamin Prime Steakhouse. It's the no sleep Till Brooklyn shirt. Okay, And of course brook and it's the state of Iowa and Brooklyn is in the middle of the state. It's like a dot because there's a Brooklyn, Iowa, so it's saying no sleep till and then the word Brooklyn inside of the state of Iowa, which is cute. So that is the second version of this shirt. So they bought me a large, which is second to third quarter scury, and that was a wonderful shirt. So thank you. I forgot who gave it to me.

00:01:43
Speaker 3: But large is first or second quarter scary. By the third quarter scary, you know, we're well, it is second quarter and I'm wearing it right now. This is the large. But the one I was wearing the other day was the extra large shirt, which was a little big on me. Today the other day, yesterday, the other day it was the other shirt, same shirt, same print, But it was that one I got in Iowa as a gift when we went to the Iowa State Fair by somebody else from the.

00:02:11
Speaker 1: Radio station out there. They thought it was cute, say like scary. We bought this for you, We thought of you. So I have two versions of the same exact shirt in the same color. Mind you, it's that navy blue on white.

00:02:23
Speaker 3: Yes, I have one. I was also given the gift of the shirt, and that's right. So you got yours at the Meat Mark. I'm sorry the meetup, right, I believe so.

00:02:35
Speaker 1: Brody. What is the first rule of correcting someone? Be correct, be right, make sure you're correct right. So Nate from the Big Show was telling a story this morning, and he stumped me, and he stumped some of our listeners too. What was the first number one rap single to hit the Billboard Hot one hundred?

00:02:56
Speaker 3: I had to guess Ice Ice Baby, that is correct. Oh, they are very good. Yeah, yay me, yay you.

00:03:02
Speaker 1: Congratulations, David Brody, thank you. I would have thought it would be in the Beastie Boys five for you Right to Party, But no, that was even though that was earlier than Vanilla Ice. That was in nineteen eighty six or seven, and Vanilla Ice was nineteen ninety that hit number seven on the charts. Okay, so what did Nate say it was? Nate said it was Vanilla Ice Ice Ice Babe. He's correct, but I didn't say anything to correct Nate. Instead, before correcting him, I looked it up and realized he's right. But people started texting in no, dumb asses, it's the sugar Hill Gang from the seventies. So I just love the way people don't even do their research. They do no homework whatsoever. They don't. They just throw it out there because oh, rap song seventies that was the number one song, Brody, do you know what chart position? The peak position for that song was the sugar Hill Gang and Rappers Delight. You don't look it up. Don't be a dick. I'm not. I'm not looking it up. I don't know. I have no idea. I have no idea. Number thirty six. It's the chart position was number thirty six. But the larger point here is people are did they did? They love to just jump on you. You know, they picked an answer that's like the most mainstream or the first thing that comes to their mind, or someone told them, right, Dave, repeat it? Yeah so yeah so. But that happens a lot in life. It happens in the comment section of everything that's posted. So I will be giving examples of those when I tell you some more Facebook riddles. Riddle me this, David Brody, Well, why don't you tell me what? Right? Now? Okay, so let me pull up, pull up, put on the old Here we go, the old spectacles.

00:04:43
Speaker 3: What is the only US States? Scary h that start that starts with a W but does end with a vowel.

00:04:51
Speaker 1: Okay, so most people's minds are going to go to Wisconsin, but that ends in the consonant. So I'm not going to give that as an answer, but I'm sure that was the dumbass answer that everybody gave. Wisconsin consin was the number one response, number one response, of course it was, and did a value uh a vowel, And other people said Wyoming, but that ends in a consonant as well. Uh, it's West Virginia.

00:05:15
Speaker 3: Very good, scary West Virginia. So here's some of the responses that are on this riddle. Wyoming, Wyoming done took me less than two seconds, okay, to which everyone wrote, g is not a vowel. This person wrote, Ohio, it sense ends with a vowel. People vowel people, Ohio.

00:05:33
Speaker 1: But where's the part where they they skipped on the dumb starts w Yeah, okay right. This person wrote this two Wisconsin.

00:05:40
Speaker 3: And Wyoming morons, to which people wrote, you forgot Washington. This person wrote a lot of broken toys on here, to which I replied, A lot is two words?

00:05:56
Speaker 1: Are you correcting? The person who tried to be a wise ass Yeah.

00:06:01
Speaker 3: This person wrote, I'm Canadian and I knew it was West Virginia. H This person wrote, west Virginia is not the answer?

00:06:09
Speaker 1: Oh oh my god? Yeah, okay, all of them except West Virginia. What clean out your ears? People to the response.

00:06:21
Speaker 3: Was none of them except West Virginia. This person wrote, it's Washington done. This person wrote, and it's not. And as a constant, not a vowel, you're done. Uh okay, So that's the gist of it. Nobody knows how to read and the first thing that pumps into her head. But I'm thinking they're like, oh, Wisconsin.

00:06:40
Speaker 1: Right? This was no because but my brain said Wisconsin. But because I understood the question, I understood the assignment David Brody, I knew not to say it out loud, so my mind went somewhere else after that. Right, idiots, do you want to another one?

00:06:59
Speaker 4: Oh?

00:06:59
Speaker 1: Yeah, I love thee this. This one's fairly easy.

00:07:02
Speaker 3: You'd think, what is the only US state that is surrounded by water?

00:07:09
Speaker 1: Hawaii? Okay, hold on, wait wait wait wait yeah, yeah, that is surrounded by water? Yeah, Hawaii? And now is that not is that a trick question? What's going on here?

00:07:22
Speaker 3: This person no, This person wrote none of them. Hawaii has dirt under it. Okay, that's a that's a smart asshole. This person wrote Hawaii and Alaska, and this person wrote check a map, Alaska is connected to Kna and this person wrote, beck, I'm looking at a map. Alaska and Hawaii are both surrounded by water.

00:07:43
Speaker 1: You know why? Scary because they're looking at a map of the continent of the United States. That throws Alaska and Hawaii on the maps you see them? Yes, exactly. They don't know in real life, Alaska is not off the coast of California. This person wrote Oklahoma, what that's the exact opposite answer. I mean, it's nothing but surrounded by land. So this person wrote is Oklahoma and island? And then they wrote back, there's lakes everywhere? Okay? And who are the ass the assholes who who mentioned cities instead of states? Anyone? Uh? Nobody mentioned the cities? I love it. Give me one more, come on, come on, I love this. I love this. Okay, got one more for you. Ready?

00:08:30
Speaker 3: This one is an old one, but it popped up on my feet and I can't understand the way people think. Ready, I have six eggs, I break two. Yeah, I fried too.

00:08:42
Speaker 1: I ate two. How many eggs left? Two? Let me say it. You you had six eggs, six eggs you broke? Oh, oh you have four? You have four left? Four left? Yeah? Four? Yeah, because because you broke the same eggs that you fro and ate, because that's correct. Yeah, of course four. You know, you know how many people wrote zero one none? Right exactly, although they h they wrote two two? Yeah, well too. My mind wanted to say that. But because they think that I broke too, so those are gone, then I fried to. But I ate two separate ones, not the two I fried, you know to the in their defense when you say you break them, maybe they fell on the floor so you lost them, but you fried to. They could have been a different two. So that's why I said, maybe you do have two eggs left, because you say that I broke to If you broke two makes a terrible riddle.

00:09:43
Speaker 3: It's not Yeah, it's not the greatest, but yeah, it's not the great But I see what they were going for. But Hawaii surrounded by water, the Hawaiian Islands which island, and Wisconsin, Wisconsin, and not a vowl. That's my new favorite thing is to go on these things and read the responses.

00:09:59
Speaker 1: You know, where is this on Facebook? Is just anywhere? This is what I'll do, scary. I'm going to send you a link for a riddle.

00:10:03
Speaker 3: You'll click on it, and you have a scroll on Facebook, and then you have like a horizontal strip of videos of Facebook reels.

00:10:11
Speaker 1: Well, if you click on a riddle and and and and and comment on it, then the next time you come on your Facebook, you go to your Facebook page, there'll be two or three riddles. Okay, So if you keep clicking on them like I do, you keep getting more rid algorithm learns the kind of humor that you're into. My algoriddle? Yeah, my algoriddle. So did I hit the button on the commercial too soon earlier? No? It was good. Hey.

00:10:38
Speaker 3: Speaking of maps and locations in geography, there's a comedian that I'm a female comedian that I'm a fan of, and I think she lives out in the Midwest as we like to call it over there. She lives over there, I don't remember exactly where, but she's not She's in the Midwest or West Coast, somewhere over there. And she put up a bunch of dates that she's going to be in the area, like I'm going on tour, I'll be in these following cities. I'm very excited. So she's going to be in Atlanta, Georgia, Chicago, Illinois, Denver, Colorado, and King's County, New York.

00:11:12
Speaker 1: Oh my god, somebody didn't follow up. Hey, by the way, that's Brooklyn. Yeah, King's County is Broke is the official government name for Brooklyn. Hey, let's Jean's County. Yeah, King's County, Queen's County, Richmond County is Staten Island. Right, Uh, let's change the name of the podcast to the King's County Boys. Yeah. So I messaged her and I said, hey, just so you know, nobody nobody refers to Brooklyn as King's County, Like there's a King's County hospital, there's King's County things, but it's not it's you know, it's like Brooklyn.

00:11:49
Speaker 3: Did you get a response. Not yet, It still says it on her on her on our tour peek.

00:11:53
Speaker 1: You can tell she's not from around these parts. Yeah. So I say, you know, I don't know. I don't. I don't.

00:11:58
Speaker 3: So the link goes to the link to the club she's playing. So I'm like, did the club.

00:12:03
Speaker 1: Tell her it's Kings, Like, I don't hit her out Instagram. See what his Instagram? I hit her up on Instagram? You slid into her DMS. Yes, I sent her a message, But that's like, so that's like imagine wherever you guys live slices and there's like, you know, an official name for where you live, but everybody knows it's not that.

00:12:22
Speaker 3: If somebody referred to it as that, no one we know what you're talking about. Yea, King's County. Nobody knows that. Very few people no sleep to Uh did you see SNL the season finale?

00:12:39
Speaker 1: Yes, of course I did. I gotta say, you know, hands down my favorite sketch and maybe yours as well, is is Jokes the Week and the Weekend Update Joke Swap Right. It's where they each write jokes for each other, but they don't tell them until they're live. Yeah, I want to think that they don't preview the material. So basically, Michael Jay writes jokes for Colin Jos to read and vice versa. So they are the most outrageous racist they are, but they're funny as fuck, you know, and they really follow the true rules of comedy. They they really it's it's just classic comedy. So there's so many people that have lost, you know, they've lost their way with SNL. They know it's not as great as it used to be. And we we've talked, we've had this conversation on this podcast every generation. Yeah right, or or just sucks or you know, I don't like the way that you know it leans in one direction and it's unfair. Well, all I could say is this, the Weekend Update sketch is just pure gold and this is just as clever as they've ever done. I'm gonna go listen. Even though I'm not of this generation, Brody, I want to say, this is the best iteration of SNL Weekend we can update. There's ever been these two guys and the posts and the yeah, these hosts, would you agree? And this this specific bit that they do because they are literally live on air reading the joke for the first time, and they have to read what the other guy wrote and you know he's there to throw him under the bus and make him look like an idiot. Fucking brilliant slices. Do yourself a favor if you do if you do nothing else, see that sketch. I mean just it's all over YouTube. But watch it. It's funny. And watch last year's too, because this is kind of like the revenge because last year, well you'll have to see it involved Scarlett. They do it, they both involved Scarlett Johansson. Was it a year ago Scarlett Johansson or was that like the joke the jokes was it was the last joke swap they did.

00:14:57
Speaker 3: Okay, I thought they do the joke swap when they take the end of the season, but also like for Christmas.

00:15:03
Speaker 1: Maybe they do it for Christmas too. Whatever it was they do it, maybe they do it twice a year, but season fift the last time.

00:15:09
Speaker 3: What's scary is talking about I want to specifically reference that is that they made a joke. Colin made a joke that her private parts, his wife, Sallett Johansson's private parts, that she's gotten so old or had kids whatever. The joke was that like RB's is sponsoring hers, like she's got a roast beeflips whatever.

00:15:25
Speaker 1: And we're written by Michael Chay and he had to read this, yes again allegedly written by Michael. I'm assuming written by anyway. So she came on this week.

00:15:34
Speaker 3: She was the host, and she sat with Michael Chay and had him apologize to her whatever as a joke. But I saw on Facebook on the video on the SNL page, somebody wrote how classless and she had to sit there and she didn't accept his pot. I don't even how she sits next to Michael Chay after she knows he wrote such an awful joke about my private parts. Oh my god, it's Do you not understand not only is Scarlett Johansson married to Colin Jost and understands the end that she knew the joke was coming, and that also Michael Jay is one of his best friends. He wanted her to be mad at Michael Chay for writing that joke a year ago or six months ago, whenever it was.

00:16:09
Speaker 1: How could she be nice to him after he wrote that awful joke about her vagina? Whatever? People have no clook in comedy. Yeah, do you think she's gonna get upset? It's a joke. Listen.

00:16:19
Speaker 3: I understand she makes one hundred million dollars year making movies, but Colin gets paid very nicely to do his job, and his job is the joke swap twice once a year. Whatever it is and like you think she's gonna be offended.

00:16:30
Speaker 1: By it, She's I think they rehearsed this. You don't think she knew what was coming. You don't think Chay was like, listen, I'm gonna do a roast beef joke. Does she give a shit if they make a joke about her?

00:16:41
Speaker 3: Like she's she's confident in her appearance and her success.

00:16:45
Speaker 1: I know, I don't think she was like, oh mad, I love how everyone has to jump to the comments her. Yeah, that's that's the worst.

00:16:53
Speaker 3: I can't believe she's still talking to Michael Jay after he wrote that joke about her vagina.

00:16:57
Speaker 1: Yeah, I hate, Oh my god, oh my god. I'm not a big TV guy, but you know, oh my god, Brody, oh my god, oh my god. Nice you know what's coming out? Ship out of your butt? Yeah, I got a little turtle head poking out. No, I'm kidding. Pee Wee Herman the Paul Rubins story. It's the documentary Wee Pee Wee as himself or as whatever the name of it is. It's it's gonna be.

00:17:26
Speaker 3: It's not legitimately coming out because he did that in the movie theater. I know, HBO and HBO Max this Friday. Not a sponsor, hold on Homie, not a sponsor HBO Max, just HBO.

00:17:35
Speaker 1: HBO Max and HBO on both. So I didn't say Max thing. Now it's both the same thing, now, isn't it. No, it's on both. Can you have HBO and not? Yeah?

00:17:45
Speaker 3: It was one on the digital version. Oh right, okay, yeah, it's so confusing.

00:17:49
Speaker 1: What is the app? What is the app? And what is the HBO? So classic HBO No, but like so he allowed someone to interview him and spend like all these hours with him and at the end of his life and you know, you know, he passed from cancer in twenty twenty three. So there's also a message he does, a final message that he recorded that you're going to see that he recorded the day before his death, which is just wild. So they debuted this at con Con Film Festival cons Film Festival back in January. It has one hundred percent on Rotten Tomatoes Brody, I mean, which we love. We respect the Rotten Tomatoes scale system or with the scale of rating. So it looks great and I can't wait. It comes out Friday, May twenty third. I don't know when you listening to this. It's probably already out by the time you're hearing this.

00:18:38
Speaker 3: Do you know he came up to the radio station a few years ago, Paul Rubert, not to yeah, not to not to SEW one hundred, But he came up in the afternoon to the classic rock station next door three, and he came up in costume.

00:18:52
Speaker 1: Oh no, got pictures. He came up as pewe Herman. I'm so said, I missed that. That's a picture to have. That would be a get. That's a get that get. Yeah, yeah, I mean god, I mean I grew up, I grew Hey, I could say this, I grew I grew up watching Pee Wee's Playhouse, But I really did that show from the eighties and nineties. Yeah again, Brody's like years of Pee Wee's Playhouse. Yeah hell, this is what he does, slices. You don't see this, but I see it on camera. He fucking mutes the mike and then he puts his phone up to his lips to do like a a search. Yep, absolutely so. So he's gonna get the right yet, all right, Brody, years years of Pee's Playoffs was on the air. Tell me I wasn't a fucking kid, Dad, what do you consider a kid, Brody, I was a teenager. I was in my at the latest. I was in the early my early twenties. But I don't think so. I was in my I was a teen when that show is on eighty six and it ran for several seasons. I was twelve, Brody, all right, just checking out. I grew up. I've getting your years wrong. So no, I don't want to hear any fucking talk packs I grew up watching. Can't blame me on something. I grew up watching Pee Wee's Playhouse anyway, but I would I would emulate all that stuff. The word of the secret word of the day, scream old was Nicki Minaj in nineteen eighty six, scream real Loud.

00:20:18
Speaker 3: She was four years old in nineteen eighty six. Yeah, I grew up listening to her too.

00:20:22
Speaker 1: Yeah. So no, but so I feel like it's going to be very emotional. But anyway, I want to watch it. It's in two parts, I believe, so yeah, check it out if you're our age. Uh. He probably grew up watching Pee Wee's playoffs too, so uh, but yeah, he had some. He had some. He actually addresses the two times that he was caught in public. What it was he was exposing himself for.

00:20:47
Speaker 3: He was pleasuring himself as a porn movie theater back in the day when you used to go to movie theaters to watch porn.

00:20:52
Speaker 1: Right and then uh, and then something else happened to him in the two thousands happened twice anyway. He yeah, he addresses all that about being homosexual. Did he use the word homosexual growing up as a homosexual man?

00:21:07
Speaker 3: That's what he said. It's his quote direct quote. Yeah, I did not. I did not know he addressed that. I guess he dressed ever.

00:21:12
Speaker 1: He did so he yeah, I can't wait anyway. Pee wee yeah, pee wee as I forgot pee wee as himself or something like that. Google it you'll find it.

00:21:20
Speaker 3: Speaking of Netflix, I mean as streaming services. Did you see that Netflix picked up Sesame Street?

00:21:26
Speaker 1: No, what does this mean for us? Well, after the government cut funding to PBS, basically taking funding away from Sesame Street among other things, they had no financial backing. So Netflix signed a deal with them this week and now they are going to broadcast new episodes of Sesame Street. I don't know when they're going to be available, but they're going to pay to produce. And so now when you want to watch Sesame Street, you can go on Netflix kids or you if you have kids that want to watch Sesame Street. I didn't underway, So how far back will they go? Though? I didn't say old episodes. I said they're going to produce new episodes of Sessage. Yeah, I don't they're gonna I'm gonna get a back catalog too.

00:22:06
Speaker 3: I don't know about that. I think PBS still owns the back catalog, but Netflix signed a deal to produce new show.

00:22:12
Speaker 1: I would love to see that. Do they even air them anywhere? You can't get your hands on those right, Like I want to see like old school Sesame Street from like the seventies.

00:22:20
Speaker 3: Well google that, figure out where they're available. I mean, google it now, but you'll tell me I'm googling it with the mic off, so I can't do that.

00:22:27
Speaker 1: I wonder if Sesame Street ever did anything inappropriate that can't be broadcast by today's standards.

00:22:34
Speaker 3: They probably said things back in the day about these words you can't use anymore.

00:22:37
Speaker 1: I'm sure.

00:22:38
Speaker 3: I wonder, but bunny Bugs, bunny episodes that won't be aired anymore.

00:22:43
Speaker 1: Tom and Jerry episodes will not be aired as a lot of those too, I think not a lot, but uh, the Little Rascals. You can't you know that those shows aren't gonna be broadcast anymore. I mean sometimes I I'm flipping through the channels on This is Me TV, which is the case channel that airs old schools like comedy and things. A caveman? Is it? A caveman? Johnny Me TV GV. I see old episodes of Sandford and Sun and and all in the family, and I can't believe the ship that they're they still are it though? They are it?

00:23:16
Speaker 3: Even though you said all old episodes of San francen as if they were they.

00:23:19
Speaker 1: Were new ones, right, No, really old school ones seventies seventies television. Man, it was, and it just it hit differently, It really did.

00:23:28
Speaker 3: Did it hit differently? Look at you with with with the lingo. Uh what am I doing right now? You have your finger in your nose. Why are you doing that? That's gross?

00:23:38
Speaker 1: Middle finger to the sky, motherfucker in your nose. You're an asshole.

00:23:42
Speaker 2: G Boys podcast.

00:23:44
Speaker 1: We will be right back. Man. You really really dark in my day? Is it you who brought the clouds. It's disgusting outside. No, that's the weather, scary. You're a dark cloud man.

00:23:58
Speaker 3: You that's what you despite I think what Marjorie Taylergreen says. My people don't control the weather.

00:24:03
Speaker 1: You. You are something else. Man. I can't remember. I gotta I gotta say, David. I gotta say, David Brody, you are something else. You're a piece of work. You really are. C what I do now? What I do now? No, I'm just you have I come okay. I start my day in a great mood every day. I know it's hard to believe from the drinking. No, it's just it's happy, go lucky. It's easy. And but then we sit down and do the podcast and you start riling me up. My blood pressure goes up. It's just every podcast we get into an argument. I'm not arguing. I'm not an argumentative person. Oh. Someone, someone who's like in my like kind of like secondary circle of friends said, I thought I check out one of your podcasts. They clicked on a random episode and like, holy shit, scary. I've heard you on the radio before, I've seen you doing appearances. I've we hung out at the friends at the bar. But there's something about you on that Brooklyn Boys podcast that that's not the scary Jones I know. And I said, I know. It's my my podcast partner who brings that out in me. They may he makes me act this way. What was it? You were all you screaming at each other, you were debating stuff. And he goes, I don't know, man, He goes, I had to turn it off. I said, what are you doing that? He goes, because it scared me. That's not the scary I know. I have a hole. And that's why. And that's why he's a peripheral friend of yours and not a real friend of yours. I mean, he saw this. He knows the softer side of scary.

00:25:30
Speaker 3: Like like he knows the guy out in the villa if you if you, if you heard Slice time this week's scariest book on a villa when I called him. He knows the scary at the club, at the bar, at the fancy restaurant.

00:25:43
Speaker 1: One more, the one more, the one more guy, the apps auto for the table. Oh but let it ride. Yeah, we'll talk about that in a minute. Uh. But you know, he doesn't know the scary Jones from Brooklyn like I do when he disagrees with you and he goes, you should see the face he's scary makes when we're debating, like he's gonna kill me. So, yeah, your peripheral friend. No wonder, he's a peripheral friend. But you bring this out Joe Apparently he had it. Took a third third party to tell me and maybe hold a mirror up to my face and say, look at how you behave when you're on that podcast.

00:26:18
Speaker 3: But he didn't say it's because of me. He just said it's how you are. This is you know what it is. It's like alcohol makes people like the inner them becomes the outside. This podcast is like your alcohol. It makes it's the scary, the real scary Jones comes out for this podcast. You're like, ah, I'm back in Brooklyn. It's like we talked about you go back to Brooklyn. You have that Brooklyn accent.

00:26:36
Speaker 1: Yes, you get on the Brooklyn Boys podcast and you start like, you get all Brooklyn. That's it. You get argumentative and everything's upset, and you're upset about city bikes and you're upset about the t s I go. That is an underlying theme of the podcast is Brooklyn and we're from Brooklyn, but it's our take on This podcast is about two guys from Brooklyn who's and then our take on the world. It's not like but but I think if let's say I was co hosting with somebody else from Brooklyn, I don't think I don't think I would be as as argumentative or angry or really really so.

00:27:11
Speaker 3: So it's my fault that you got upset at the people at Starbucks at the at the airport Starbucks because your.

00:27:16
Speaker 1: Food wasn't fast enough. That's my fault that you were so upset. No, there are certain things that happened in life that I bring to the podcast, but you a lot of things that are going on for whatever reason. Right, this is my fault, My fault that city bikes had taken over the street. You feel like we're almost hit you. I feel like we're in an interrogation room and the spotlight is on me. It's like, ah, or it's my fault that congestion pricing is causing you to pay more when you go into the city. It's like an incubator. I don't know where the fuck we are. We're in something, We're in some kind of a fucking box. My fault.

00:27:48
Speaker 3: When people chiseling at the end on your trips down to the Jersey Shore, when they chisel in in the last minute, it's my fault. I just you come to the table with a lot of anger slices. Know that I think you bring out the I think you bring out the worst in me. What I do is I'm a man of the people. What it is, what happens is I make you comfortable to be you scary except so you.

00:28:07
Speaker 1: Think this is the this is the actual me. And I'm just showing my true colors because I'm relaxed. Quotes.

00:28:16
Speaker 3: Let me put this in a way you can explain. Do you remember the Catholic school, the girls Catholic school on Bay Parkway in Brooklyn, Yes, and uh okay, And all the girls would have to wear skirts and white shirts and and the nuns would slap them on the ring. My girlfriend Robin went there, Bishop Carney.

00:28:32
Speaker 1: Yeah. I didn't want to say who okay defunct. Okay.

00:28:37
Speaker 3: When the girls would come out of the school to get on the bus, because I would ride the same bus from from my college to go home, they would all get on the bus. They would jump on the back of the bus, and not pay. They would go through the rear door. They would roll up their skirts and they tie their shirts up, and they'd be smoking on the corner because as soon as they got out of that dead Catholic school, they rebelled and went crazy outside.

00:28:56
Speaker 1: And that's you, Scary. You come on this podcast like the bishop Honey girls, and you roll up his shirt and you starts smoking cigarettes and you're sneaking on the back of the bus and not paying the toll, paying the fair. This allows you to be Scary Jones, the kid from Brooklyn, whereas the rest of the time, you gotta be the guy in the radio. Mister Party, mister velvet rope, mister mister mister villa, mister cabana boy. Am I like the month of March going backwards instead of going in like a lion and coming out like a lamb, I go in like a lamb and come out like a lion. Is that is that what it says? That's correct? Yeah, May Flowers bring April showers. That's you. This podcast is your April showers. Well, you come on here and you're like yes, and you like to rain on my parade. Everything. Well, sometimes your parades are goofy, but you crop on me all the time. Oh, but you know what we told you deserve it sometimes most of the time you deserve it, all right, Yeah, splitting the bill? What about splitting the bill? Right? Was it TikTok or Instagram that you sent this to me? Oh? I think it was U TikTok. So it was Instagram. I want to play this a little bit of this video on TikTok. A woman twelve.

00:30:08
Speaker 5: Dollars for an eighteen dollars salad is that big of a deal. So I made a whole group of strangers mad at me and my friends that I embarrassed her because I refused to pay one hundred and twelve dollars for my eighteen dollars salad.

00:30:17
Speaker 3: Okay, So this woe went out to dinner with a woman. She's like, oh, you should come with some people you don't really know, and she ordered a salad and a water roughly my name's Tammy on TikTok, and everybody else at the table ordered scallops and steaks and all kinds of drinks whatever. So she saw I was getting out of hand, so she ordered, like, you know, ten twenty dollars worth of food. So she got a separate check and she said, and she paid her dinner. I think, here, what is she makes slain?

00:30:44
Speaker 1: What happens? Yeah, my friend is going through a divorce.

00:30:47
Speaker 5: I told her I could come. I was invited the last minute. She said, I'm on my way there.

00:30:50
Speaker 2: Why don't you join us. There's a room for one more.

00:30:52
Speaker 5: And I'm not part of this spring group invited me out to a steakhouse in Dallas to kind of just help her get through things.

00:30:59
Speaker 1: So we all go meet up.

00:31:00
Speaker 5: And this is an expensive steakhouse and nothing was said before about splitting the bill or paying anything. So I got there and they had already ordered appetizers that the table has shared. I was like, okay, that's fine. I didn't really want anything. I looked at the prices. I decided on my caesar salad, which was eighteen dollars. Like that's fine, I'll just do that. I didn't really want anything heavy anyway, because it was late.

00:31:21
Speaker 1: At nineteen dollars.

00:31:22
Speaker 5: They're all ordering drinks and wine and cocktails, and they go to the bar and I heard them start talking about splitting the bill, about everyone just puts in it'll be close to one hundred dollars a person, maybe.

00:31:35
Speaker 1: One hundred and twenty okay, and I'm thinking.

00:31:37
Speaker 5: No, I am not doing that. And these girls, they were ordering steak, they had ordered all the appetizers before I got there.

00:31:43
Speaker 2: They were ordering dessert. I had my salad.

00:31:46
Speaker 5: So I went up to our waitress and I said, hey, are you able to split the bill? And she said yeah, absolutely, and I said, could I pay my portion now? As she said, of course. So I paid my eighteen dollars, handed her the.

00:31:59
Speaker 1: CA and that was it.

00:32:01
Speaker 5: When the waitress came over, they said they were ready for the buildin and just put it on one bill and everyone would split it.

00:32:05
Speaker 2: And this girl, who.

00:32:06
Speaker 5: I don't know, I don't know who she was, she.

00:32:07
Speaker 2: Said, okay, everyone, she figured it up.

00:32:09
Speaker 5: She's like, everyone knows me one hundred and twelve dollars, she can just sell it to me.

00:32:14
Speaker 1: And she included her the building.

00:32:16
Speaker 5: And I said to me, She's like, i'll give you my information. I said, I already paid for my dinner. I She's like, no, we're splitting everything. And I said no, ma'am. I said, I had an eighteen dollar salad.

00:32:26
Speaker 2: That's all I'm paying for. I was like that's not how this group works.

00:32:31
Speaker 5: And I said, well, nobody told me anything about it, and she starts saying, well, we had appetizers and we had desert. I said, you guys had that. All I had was my salad and I already paid. And the waitress was standing there. She's like, oh yeah, she already settled up.

00:32:43
Speaker 2: We're good. And my friend was like, come on, just pay. It's not that big of a deal.

00:32:47
Speaker 5: Girl, one hundred and twelve dollars for an eighteen dollar salad.

00:32:51
Speaker 2: Is that big of a deal.

00:32:52
Speaker 4: I don't know.

00:32:52
Speaker 1: And she paid the eighteen dollars already, by the do you know, by the way, do you know why I sent that to you?

00:32:58
Speaker 3: You didn't send me that a different one which I'm gonna play.

00:33:01
Speaker 1: Okay, Well I saw that one as well. And the reason I will tell I'll tell you this is that woman wrong. What Nope? Was that woman wrong in this? In this case, this is one of those examples of I agree with her two hundred because first of all, she came late. She didn't even have a chance to sit down at the table. Correct, Okay, no appetite, no nothing, and she paid the eighteen dollars. Now what would have been the right thing for the group to do, would be like, you know what, she only had a fucking salad. Let's and she's you know, we don't know her very well. Let's let's bring her into the group. Let's fucking all pay and exclude her. Congratulations, she ate a free salad. I would go the opposite direction and make the real pick up her salad, which would come out to like maybe three dollars extra person. That's not life for that. But even if you don't want to do that, take the twenty off the top in the twenty and then then yeah, and then of course, now had she been invited to a steakhouse going in and she sat there from the beginning of the meal, and she knows she's going to a steakhouse and she chose to order just an eighteen dollar salad, that's a problem. I'll be like, you know what, No, we're going out to eat. We're gonna fucking eat, and I'm going to eat more than an eighteen dollar salad. You don't have to go nuts. You don't have to. But that's where I start to be like, let's split the bill evenly, because you haven't you had an app and a glass of wine, and an entree and a dessert. We all had that. A couple of us had a couple more rounds of drinks. You had an extra appetizer, you ordered an extra side. Fuck it, we're paying it evenly. That's when you pay it evenly. That's the most scenarios. But in this, because it's there from the beginning, everyone eats about the same. See, that's what kills me is when people want to itemize checks. When everyone ate about the same and oh no, no, never ever do that. Everybody's ordering, like, you know, roughly the same food there, that will be like, fuck you, brody, I'm still itemizing. I'm only gonna pay for it. That's the people I fucking hated life. No, I never want to be seated at a table with no. I would never do that.

00:35:15
Speaker 3: However, I did go out to dinner with my boy Jeff, Yes, and we had the same food, but he had four sodas and I drank water.

00:35:23
Speaker 1: And he's like, oh, we'll split the check. And I didn't say anything, nor should you have, because it's fucking four sodas. Hold On, hold on, what did you eat? He didn't, hold on? They were soda bottles, so it wasn't like refills so scared. It was like, OK here good, yeah it we split the food, so the food was the same.

00:35:41
Speaker 3: My point is, in my opinion, because I would have done this. He should have said, hey, listen, I had four sodas. That's like, I don't know, fifteen dollars or fourteen dollars worth of soda, you know, let's take that off the bill and then we'll split it. I would have done that. I would have said, hey, listen, I've been drinking soda is like a fiend. I'll pay for my soda and then we'll split the bill. The fact that he didn't, I'm fine with it because he's my boy, and I leave it out in the end. I'm just saying I would have offered right because I wasn't drinking like that.

00:36:09
Speaker 1: Because he's your boy, You're gonna have several more dinners and lunches and brunches, and there's gonna be a time where you're gonna overorder, and then you're still gonna split the bill evenly, and then it's just gonna be a wash because well, at some point, what I'm gonna do next time we go out, I'm gonna order extra sodas. There you go, so that it evens out. That's fine, But that's like to me, that's the game of life. You know, that's like life. You know your friends, right, It's an ongoing thing. It's like ask question. Listen this, but if he had four, if he had four glasses of whiskey and now we ran up like a forty five dollars.

00:36:40
Speaker 3: Time you don't drink it, and you don't drink then I'm not paying for it. I pay for a couple of sodas. I just don't like the now people who are so fucking nitpicky. They're like I am a Pressel spounce you you had the carrots and there's a prance differential of three dollars. Like fu he sent me an Instagram read perhaps the greatest app ever.

00:37:01
Speaker 1: I'm going to play the audio. Get the point, I'll time slices. Listen up, because this is my public service for the week.

00:37:08
Speaker 2: Lavish ordering habits.

00:37:09
Speaker 1: Here we go.

00:37:10
Speaker 4: If you were sick and tired of subsidizing your friend's meals and their lavish ordering.

00:37:14
Speaker 2: Habits, you need to watch this. Okay.

00:37:16
Speaker 4: So back in the day, there was a girl in our friend group that I didn't like, and it took months for everyone else to realize how horrible she was. But I knew from the start because when we would go out to dinner and everyone else would get a normally priced entree, she would order something insane like crab legs or a ribbi or eight cocktails. And we were in college and did not have that kind of money. And then when the bill would come, she would say, let's split it evenly.

00:37:38
Speaker 2: Mm hmm.

00:37:39
Speaker 4: But I'm Vivian, your rich bff and your favorite Wall Street curly, and my gen Z assistant taught me that nowadays people aren't doing this.

00:37:46
Speaker 2: There is an app to help you split meals fairly. Enter tab. This is not an AD, but it is a cool app.

00:37:51
Speaker 1: Tab.

00:37:51
Speaker 4: You take a photo of your group dinner bill, and everyone at the table can join the bill from their own phone.

00:37:56
Speaker 2: You tap the items that you actually ate.

00:37:58
Speaker 4: And the big game changer here is that then tax and tip are divided proportionally. You can even then just settle up on venmo right before you leave the restaurant. I'm not sweating a few dollars between friends, but I'm also not paying for somebody's rearby that I don't eat Okay, so.

00:38:11
Speaker 1: The tab I haven't downloaded it yet. That's brody. I had you in mind. I thought of you immediately. I'm like, this is so fucking this is so brody, this is so fram Yeah, except I would. I would bring it to go out to dinner with you and your friends, and they were like, fuck that ship. Four kudos to the dot Yeah, kudos to the tab at, but yeah, it's not gonna work with the dudes from Brooklyn. We're scary and brody. Uh yeah, four my angel numbers make a wish, make a wish.

00:38:48
Speaker 3: I wish you'd stop that ship. Hold on, I wish you'd stop with the angel numbers. Yeah, what was your wish?

00:38:53
Speaker 1: I'm still you're not telling you fuck you got me? I would be very proud of me. Scary.

00:39:00
Speaker 3: This weekend, I had to go up to upstate New York, and so I booked a hotel room at a casino that had a racetrack, big gambling place, you know casinos. So you know, I stayed the hotel and you know, I'm not working, so I don't have a lot of money to gamble. But I went into the casino. I set down the slot machines and I sat down at one of these slot machines. Scary that, like, you know, if you hit like a certain combination or like two of this comes up, it then goes into like a game mode. It was like, how many rounds of bonus games do you get?

00:39:34
Speaker 1: Eight? And you get eight games and like, yeah, I love that.

00:39:38
Speaker 3: So that kills a lot of time, because you know whatever. Okay, so I sat there for I don't know, maybe I sat there for like forty minutes gambling.

00:39:46
Speaker 1: I doubled my money and I got out of there, baby, yes, doubled it. It's almost like you got paid to sit there and gamble. Yep, yep. It's almost like you had a job there for a few minutes. I did. Yeah, popped in at ten, walked away with twenty. Woohoo. That's a win. I like that. Well, they have a scamboni.

00:40:07
Speaker 3: The machines say, they say a penny on them, right, yeah, but it's it's only the winnings are divisible by pennies, so you don't actually put in a penny to actually spin the wheels. It's sixty pennies. Yeah, so it's not a penny machine. It's a sixty cent machine. Yeah, but if you sit down, you're like, oh, pennies great, Oh, I'll just hit forty pennies and sixty pennies and eighty pennies and you don't even realize you to let you go in two, three dollars, four dollars whatever. It's like, oh, it's pennies, it's pennies. But it's not pennies.

00:40:37
Speaker 1: No, it's not. No, of course not. That's how they get you.

00:40:42
Speaker 3: And I'm sitting next to this this this woman, she's she's like, you know, she kept like she was with a friend and in New York State, you can't smoke in the casinos, so she kept believing to go smoke. So a friend would sit and watch the machine for her, and then because it's a lucky machine, you know, and she'd have to go out, go to the smoking port or whatever and come back and smoke like ah, you know the smoker's voice. Apparently, she was very upset that this casino didn't have the Wheel of Fortune game, because people love the Wheel of Fortune game.

00:41:10
Speaker 1: One of the classics, one of the classics.

00:41:13
Speaker 3: She's like, bah, yeah, not the wal Fortune game in this casino. Whow Anyway, they had a nice buffet. So I went to the buffet for dinner.

00:41:20
Speaker 1: What did you have? Did you have the prime rib? I had the prime rib? Yep. But here's the catch. Oh he's the most expensive thing there, the prime rib.

00:41:26
Speaker 3: Well it's it's buffet though, so you know you don't fill up on the shore pasta a lot of shrimp, yeah, yeah, yeah, the sidebar. Ye, No buffets.

00:41:39
Speaker 1: If you're gonna go to a fucking buffet, leave the fucking pizza in the pasta alone. It's the cheapest thing there. Go for the proteins. Go for the most expensive fucking things there, and get your money's worth. None of this filler bullshit. Okay, go back to you. I hate that. I hate what they had to do that. Buffets. Yeah, oh, lots of pasta. I was like, no, no pasta anyway.

00:42:00
Speaker 3: So all the tables are on they're they're in like a theater display like you know, like there's like like a movie theater is like there's levels. So when you go to the so there's levels because they're all facing a giant window. And what's outside the giant window the horse race track, so you can you can watch horse racing. So I'm sitting there eating the prime rib, watching the horses, and I'm thinking, I wonder if any of the horses ended up in the buffet, and is this really prime rib?

00:42:29
Speaker 1: When they do when they don't, when they don't perform as well, they get take them out back, take it up, back around. And So the reason I was in upstate New.

00:42:42
Speaker 3: York is that one of my kids graduated college. So we were up at the college in upstate New orgilations. Thank you very much, all congratulations to Hart, but yeah for me. Okay, So, sitting in the crowd, Mazzle and the and the woman next to me, Ah, she's in her sixties maybe, and she's with her husband. And the school, the graduating class was like a thousand kids, maybe more, maybe a thousand kids. And they're all coming in from where we're sitting. They're coming in right to left, so they're coming into the base of the bleachers and they're walking to the left up towards the stage. So I don't know when my kid's coming in, so I start filming the crowd. Now, if you're filming the crowd walking right to left, would you be filming horizontally or vertically horizontally? One So I'm filming horizontally to get as many kids in the shot left to right as I can, because I don't know when my kids.

00:43:42
Speaker 1: Going in advance. It's not really postable on social media because it's not very friendly instag post my kid walking into an arena to graduate college, right, you're not going to post it. So yeah, horizontal, of course, landscape. The woman next to me.

00:43:58
Speaker 3: The woman next to me is vertically filming, you know, up and down, Oh god, which makes no sense because ninety percent of her shot is the crowd above the line of kids coming in, and then she only has like three kids in the on the screen at any one time. So I'm not going to tell how to film onso my business, but I'm like, what a dope?

00:44:15
Speaker 1: All right, Larry David. I thought you were going to go right up to him, excuse me? Miss.

00:44:19
Speaker 3: Normally I would have, except in order to get her attention, my voice would have been on her recording and I couldn't interrupt her to tell her without running her recording. And she's filming the entire one thousand kids coming in.

00:44:29
Speaker 1: Meanwhile.

00:44:29
Speaker 3: Because I can get twenty kids on the screen at one time, I can pause it, I can stop recording till the next batch of twenty kids comes.

00:44:36
Speaker 1: Did you think for a second that maybe she's using it for social media and maybe she wants to put it up on Instagram? Scary?

00:44:42
Speaker 3: This woman is not filming a thousand kids walking in in a ten minute video to post kids. She doesn't know she's trying to capture her kid walk in.

00:44:50
Speaker 1: Yeah, anyway, maybe it's for social media, and you still want it up and down. You don't want it to cry. Scary.

00:44:55
Speaker 3: I spoke to this woman beforehand. This woman barely could be on Facebook. Oh you cannot have the she's not on TikTok and Instagram kind of woman.

00:45:03
Speaker 1: Well, anyway to hold the camera.

00:45:05
Speaker 3: Then, after the kids all walk in, the husband, who was taking still for pictures and not paying attention, turns to her and sees her filming.

00:45:13
Speaker 1: And he goes, oh you doing. She's like, what we're filming up down for your film? Left? Right? You don't film up down? What are you doing? And he's yelling at her. So then she just I don't know, that's how I film. Why would your film can's sideways up and down?

00:45:29
Speaker 3: So he obviously was enough Instagram because he yelled at her and like he's making her feel stupid. Now, he shouldn't have yelled at her. But also he has a little more common sense with the filming.

00:45:38
Speaker 1: You know what I mean that grind your gears, David Brody.

00:45:42
Speaker 3: No another, okay, I'm saying I noticed it was a problem, and I tried to help her, but I didn't know how to get her attention without ruining her film. The husband did not appreciate her filming up and down anyway. So I was like, twelve hundred kids graduated from the school. But you know, when they call out you name names, and by the way, for some reason, they didn't do it in alphabetical order. No, because I'm thinking, Brody, Oh, my kid's gonna go like one of the first one hundred or two. Yeah, I'm good. Oh No, they had some random order. I don't know if there was an order. I don't know if it was by by degree, I don't know. The point was it was mayhem. Nobody knew when their kid was taking the stage.

00:46:21
Speaker 1: Whatever.

00:46:22
Speaker 3: I'm really good. So I found my my daughter in the crowds. I was able to film her. But as they're calling people's names out, the names are getting stranger and stranger. So I'm not gonna name all the names. I'm not gonna, you know, critique and make fun. One kid's name was Scout. Now that's an unusual name.

00:46:38
Speaker 1: Yeah, but whatever.

00:46:38
Speaker 3: I think Bruce Willis's name one of his kids Scout. That's fine. Somebody named their kid Earth.

00:46:45
Speaker 1: Earth Earth? Oh boy?

00:46:50
Speaker 5: What is.

00:46:52
Speaker 4: You know?

00:46:53
Speaker 1: These poor kids, man, they have no choice in the matter. They a lifetime of weirdness. Yeah, you're just asking for it at that point. You really want your kids to be bullied, you know when that kid was like in school, like, oh, let's were you? Was your brother's name Uranus? Like all the planets, Oh it was your brother's names Pluo, like Earth Earth.

00:47:16
Speaker 3: Look, I like the planet. It's a beautiful place. Is a great place to visit. There's no other planet I'd rather live on. We Isn't that a little dicky song?

00:47:27
Speaker 1: We love Earth? Yeah, hysterical song. Yeah. I think naming your kid Earth though, Slices, Am I wrong? Do you guys? Listen? I'm not making fun.

00:47:38
Speaker 3: I just feel like you're setting your kid up to be well singled out the.

00:47:41
Speaker 1: Reason why slices we can't go. You have kids, you have family members, or friends with kids who have unusual names, not nothing sing wrong with it? Did you pick a name like uh like Plunger. Leave us a talk back if you know somebody in your life, because I feel like we can't go too harder than paid on this one, because I would I would imagine what the thousands of listen is that we have listening to this podcast, that there are people that have named their kids something that is just like like bounty, toilet paper, ring light, you know, I you know it has to be but if it's sentimental and it means something in your family, and then well fuck me, then you know. Then now now I feel stupid, you know, if it's something that's sentimental to you, you know, But yeah, we we gotta be careful. We've got to dance around this because I'm sure we've offended some people already but we haven't said anything. It's peculiar, unusual name. But if I name my kid jackpot, you know, like, you know, there's someone out there listening with that that made this choice.

00:48:43
Speaker 3: So if you call them jack for short, I guess it's okay. Well I'll tell you what. If you win the lottery, you win like a jackpot that you get to you get the name your kid jackpot. I think that's the rule. If you win, like a five million dollar jackpot, you call kid jackpot. Everybody complains, you give them thousand dollars and stop complaining.

00:48:59
Speaker 1: Yeah, but earth man, you've just set your kid kid up for a disaster.

00:49:04
Speaker 3: A world of her asking this question scary. I know you've never thought about having kids. I know you don't want kids, you cross my mind. But if if let's say, let's say Robin got pregnant somehow your tongue, Okay, I don't think that'll affect her her ovulation. But let's say let's say perchance she got pregnant, Okay, and she's like, I'm keeping the baby.

Oh my god, do you have something brody, because I have something that's gonna piss you off. Oh no, do that? Oh yeah? Is this our last break? Yeah? Oh, then go ahead and piss me off so I can finish on a high note. Oh well, you're gonna be not pissed off, but you're gonna pissed off for me, and then you're gonna you're gonna give me instructions. Well, let me ask you a question. Are you currently pissed off about this thing? I'm I'm annoyed and perplexed at the same time.

00:54:47
Speaker 3: Okay, so let me ask you one more question, Slices. Did I cause this problem that I cause him to be annoyed?

00:54:55
Speaker 1: No? No, this is something. Then I'm gonna get your opinion. This is angry Scary. He came to this podcast to vent It's like I got I saw them. Scary decides in his villain to talk about I get this, I get this piece of snail mail. I open up the envelope and I'm like, what the fuck I was invited to a Wednesday wedding. No, and by the way, it's nowhere near a holiday nowhere, it's not. It's just a r And I've confirmed that it's not a quote special day in this couple's lives, because you know, sometimes I want to this is the daily matter. No, this is a complete money saving, fucking maneuver. Now I love I love this couple to death. Okay, but Brody, I've never I could honestly say, I've never been to a Wednesday wedding before. I mean, that's not even just Friday night or Monday or Sunday. This is a fuck you middle of the week wedding. And it's and it's black tie. No, it can't be black tie on a Wednesday. On a Wednesday, the club going up on a Wednesday. I'm like, this is not real life. So at first I'm like, this is a misprint. And then I'm like, wait, let me check the match to date up and I looked at my calendar. I'm like, fuck, it's a Wednesday. This day is it's a Wednesday. It's not. It's it's for real and it says it's spelled out these joy West at the hands of the mister and Mississi. It's openresenting the Sun and daughter Wednesday. And it's written in that cursive like fucking old Shakespeare. And I'm like, this is not fancy at all. Fuck you. This is like trash black tie on a Wednesday, like wearing a it's like wearing a bathing suit to the grocery store. What are you doing? You know what? Do this in there? Because I know there's a lot of religious Jews that in the old neighborhood of Borough Park, Brooklyn on a Friday night, right, but so, and they do have weekday weddings Tuesday Wednesday, they do that. And I know that for a fact. I've seen that before. And it's it's it's it's okay because you can't do Friday Saturday, you know, for certain parts of the year. But I'll say this.

00:57:09
Speaker 3: You can't Saturday till sundown. These people are Italian, so there's no excuses. I don't know why they did this.

00:57:19
Speaker 1: Now, are there are there people flying in from other countries that have to come in like they gotta fly in on a Monday. I don't know, and they don't want to fly they gotta fly up in the week. It's just it's sitting there like glaringly, like it just sits there, like it's like, it's so you don't have.

00:57:37
Speaker 3: To take off work normal people, not you who have to take off work and you have to get up the next morning?

00:57:42
Speaker 1: Is it?

00:57:42
Speaker 4: Is?

00:57:42
Speaker 1: It?

00:57:43
Speaker 4: Is it?

00:57:43
Speaker 1: Like? What time is that I have to go to work the morning of? Like I gotta still go to work that day, right, and then take off the day Oh yeah, fuck that? And then so it's the absolute worst. And it's not even like it's a Thursday night. Fuck it, you know, Friday, I'll just do my forward hit the door with the radio show and I'll get right. Oh, it's not even like on a book end of Like it's not even like hanging on the fringe of the of the week. It's boom, fucking sucker punch right in the face Wednesday, middle of the week. Do you think that they made it black tie so that it'll seem fancier even though it's on a Wednesday. Well, I looked up the place and it is a you know, it's a pretty fancy catering hall. No I did, So that was what gonna be my question Number one. You already know what question number two is gonna be. But question number one, David Brody, do they have balls insisting that it's black tie on a Wednesday? Or does that not matter? It is a fancy place? Well, how long have they been engaged? Uh, it's about three four months now, Okay, So it's possible this was their dream location and the Wednesday is the only place they could get. Is that possible? It is a possibility. Possibility, But you know something you can't sacrifice No, it's you can't want to place that badly that you are gonna be willing to, you know, uh, settle for a Wednesday wedding. So I think maybe they.

00:59:09
Speaker 3: Got to be Maybe they got to be in France the next day for their honeymoon.

00:59:12
Speaker 1: Maybe there's some reason that had to be your honeymoon after the wedding. You don't know that. That's a tail wagon the dog shit.

00:59:19
Speaker 3: What about the people that have to work at the catering hall on that Wednesday. We're like wagon on a Wednesday. Some people that's their only job. They're happy to work on a Wednesday's Like fuck, I never worked during the week. I get extra money. I don't know what the next question is go ahead and ask the next question scary because I know I know what the next question.

00:59:33
Speaker 1: You got to know what it is. Answer it. You want to know if Okay, you want to know if if you give a Wednesday gift instead of a Saturday gift. You know, to long it is the black tie thing, a smoke screen, so you'll think you can fancy a wedding, but you realize they're paying Wednesday prices. So that's the thing that's a perspect you're expecting me to say, you give them a Wednesday gift. I'm gonna say, we give them a Thirdnesday Friday gift because to their to them, they're spending proportionally what they can afford, and you still want them to be happy. In other words, if you were going to buy them a dinner set right the fact that they're on a Wednesday, you still want to give them that that set of editions. So my gift should not be based on my friendship with these With this couple, you're saying that, throw those rules out there, throw those rules out the window. Fuck it, you are paying Wednesday prices. I'm giving you a Wednesday kind of gift to this?

01:00:33
Speaker 3: Are these the friends that twenty minutes ago you said were peripheral and had a problem with this podcast.

01:00:39
Speaker 1: No, the guy in this relationship is very close to me. He's a dear friend. He's like a brother to me. No, he's a good Josh, he's a good man. I love him. And No, he's he's a really really good He's got an awesome family. And she's great too. I meant you know, No, we've I've hung out. No, she's phenomenal. Okay, I love this. I love this couple. I would give so Friday level gift.

01:01:02
Speaker 3: But I don't know if I would give Scary Jones Saturday black.

01:01:06
Speaker 1: Tie Saturday kind of kind of I would give like super special you know what, super special Saturday scary gift. No, I wouldn't give the super black tie Saturday. Oh my god, they're getting married their gift. Like, No, I would get like I would give the I sort of have to drive a lot and I have to oh and I do, oh, I do. This is no where this is about that. This is an hour away from here. So that's the other thing they had the balls to put in. Oh, if you want some accommodations nearby, I can't stay over in this hotel. I got work. I think most people have to work. I don't think anyone's gonna use the block of rooms. I think I really think they're well if they live on Long Island, maybe stay right that you have to If you have to drive at three in the morning to get to work after the wedding, then yeah, I'm not gonna get home till midnight. It's just it's just seven o'clock, cocktailer. This ship's going till midnight easily.

01:02:03
Speaker 3: If you gave these people a Wednesday gift and they're that you like them that much, that's gonna be a problem for the relationship.

01:02:09
Speaker 1: So I would give a nice Friday wedding gift, but not a Sabado Jagonte gift. Right, but and not only not only that, Hold on, I gotta I gotta fucking get up at four in the morning to go to work on Wednesday. Do the show, come home, shower change now, I won't even get a nap in shower change. Put put product in your hand. Yes, drive an hour, participate in the wedding, and then drive home another hour. Are you invited with a guest? I am Oh, who are you bringing? Of course? Robin I told her about it. She didn't believe me. She's going on, but you guys don't live together. She has to come out to you to go to the wedding. Shall have to come here after work. She'll have to take a No, she'll have to take a half day because most people work normal works. People's schedules nice. You won't be able to get an hour away from if she's in the city. You're expecting people to take off the next day. They have to be right. I mean, if you've got a Wednesday wedding and you're partying until the break a break of dawn, what do they think? And do they think? All right, everyone, all three hundred people coming to this affair because it's a big wedding, it's a big haul. Three all three hundred people are going to take off the next day on account of us. Is that right? I don't know.

01:03:27
Speaker 3: I think they balance the cost of availability and the cost of the place on a Wednesday with the people that aren't gonna be able to make it.

01:03:33
Speaker 1: I think they're effected in like fifty people aren't coming, or are their families so large that this was a plot where they said, you know what, fuck it, We have to do this on a Wednesday, so we could shake off. We could invite let's invite five hundred people because we know five hundred people everyone. We get the credit for inviting everyone. But oh so sorry, you can't up to our Wednesday wedding. So only the one hundred and fifty closest people to us are going to show. How about this?

01:04:00
Speaker 3: How about I bet you they're getting married on the Friday before with their closest friends and family in a really fancy place, and then they're doing the big party on a Wednesday at a lower rate.

01:04:10
Speaker 1: How about that? I bet you they're already married by the time they get turned a bigger profit on the wedding gifts. No, I'm saying they did that. They spent the money on Friday, and now they're doing the discount on Wednesday. I can't. Yeah, but I can't reduce the gift. Brodie, he's a buddy of mine. It's like, Wednesday's got to be. Is Wednesday half priced from Saturday? Or is Wednesday? Like that was the last question. What is the percentage from Wednesday to Saturday? Do you give fifty percent gift? Because it's like, no, I meant I meant the catering hall, like how much? How much did they charge? Oh? I don't know what the discount would be, but it's a it's at a very like fall place and ends. I mean it's got of like the it ends in a fucking French word or some shit. But anyway, Oh, it's like Shatau left. It's some kind of chateau fucking place. But anyway, yeah, yeah, that's my that's my dilemma for today. What do you got? All right, slices, leave us a talk back. What do you think should a scary give the regular Friday gift the sad gift? You gotta be kidding me? Half price Wednesdays? That's that sounds like a bar night half price wedding members. Remember when Wednesdays and Sundays at Carvale? Remember that on commercial? Yeah, Wednesday? Do you think maybe you think Wednesday's is ladies night at this wedding where a girl's drink free? I would imagine, or is it is it bogo buy one? Is a cash bar? No? No, no, no, he might not do that.

01:05:31
Speaker 3: He's not no, no, no, no, all right, so listen, I have to try to imagine what scariest kid would look like uh named Bryce.

01:05:38
Speaker 1: By the way, if you if you guys are good with a I make a baby scary with a merse named Bryce. Than boys

01:05:54
Speaker 5: Ye
