Episode one sixty of The Brooklyn Boys podcast. Happy now, Yeah, I'm so happy. This is the new us, Brodie. We don't waste any time. We just go. We go for it. We hit the ground, we missed, we missed our mark, and we just keep rolling. You're a fan of that, Why not? That's the best. I sat down on my basement studio here. Of course, when I say studio, I mean folding table and a folding chair, and I said, hey, Scary, how's it going. You're like, oh, low your headphones. I said, what you said? Okay, that sounds better. I hadn't said anything. I hadn't load my headphones. Some of they sounded better. And he said, okay, you had phones are And I said, yeah, I have something I want to talk to you great, and you hit the music and you started the damn show. I'm not ready. You're always ready, you were born ready. You wanted some four play. I wanted a little like uh, Brodie scary banter, like what we're gonna talk about? Where we going? No, because these are the best podcast Well, you just don't know where it's gonna go. We just kind of throw things out there. See that's exactly it. I feel like we've been too calculated in the past few months. We've been doing too much show prep. We've been doing too much of the talk beforehand for a half hour, and then I start getting tired, and I lose my energy and I lose much your podcast consultant told you that we do not have a podcast consultant. You do, I don't. I took a little bit of a nap today. I said, I got a nap before the podcast because last couple of weeks I haven't been doing that. Okay, it makes all the difference in the world. Does I nap every day? But I'm screwed tomorrow. I am completely screwed. Why Well, so I the show ends, we get off the air on I don't know, nine East Coast time. Yeah, and I take a nap usually till I like to. I like to, like, you know, meander for a while and then take a nap around ten thirty the Brody daily routine. This is the pandemic routine, right. So around ten thirty, I watched on TV catch up on on the MLB network. Make sure there's no no sports going on. I need to know about as far as baseball, watch little news, no, and then I can't out for a few hours. That's my nap time. So I made I made a purchase at a PC Richard and Son our friends, UM not a sponsor of this podcast, but uh, you know, I got a good deal because I got like a last one available of the model I wanted. I got lucky. I got a good deal. So they said, when you want to deliver it? I said, when you have available? Is said Thursdays. Thursdays great, Thursday's great, but you don't know what time Thursday until the day before when they call you and tell you the time. Okay, okay. So then we get an email from the big Boss of New York of I Heart Radio, big Boss with the big Schwartzenega talks like this and I like him very much. And he says in his email like he used the Austrian font so it had an accent. Uh, please submit your questions for all staff meeting on Thursday. Well, I don't don't know what the meetings about, so how can I submit my questions? Did you notice that? What questions would I have? I don't know what the meeting is about. My first question is what am I getting a raise? That's everybody's first question, right, I'm sure that one they're gonna bypass, right, So then so then so okay, So the email came out today that said, okay, don't ask about when we returning to the office. Everyone's aready ask that question, So please ask other questions, So you can't ask that question. That one's off the table. Well, I feel like that's already asked it. Everyone's gonna ask that question. But that that's going to be the most popular question tomorrow, I don't know what to ask. The point is the meeting tomorrow, right is it? Ten thirty to eleven thirty, the Big Zoom meeting. Okay, so right after the show, I've got maybe thirty five minutes to maybe take a power napp before this meeting, right at ten thirty, Okay, I figured to myself eleven thirty boom, I'll take a nap. Then I'll take my tenn no problem, and hopefully the window will be eight to twelve. It'll happen either when we're on the air, in which case I'll just let them in and let them put the thing in I'm on the air, or they'll come like you know, for to eight right right? No, get this? What time do they want to get there? Oh? This is the I've never heard of a four hour window like this before. Am I complaining? Just pointing out the fact that our that our meeting is ten thirty to eleven thirty PC Richard and Son up to three forty five. No, I'm sorry, eleven forty five to forty five is the three now right right now, as of right now, you can't get a nap in until at least three pm tomorrow because because we go from we go from the show, the morning show, to this big, big town hall meeting, we're having to your BC Richard delivery and you gotta be up for that. Okay, Then what happens at a quarter to four, Well, you know what happens at a quarter to four. I go pick my daughter up at school, so I it's it's actually perfectly timed out to not allow me to have any So I have to hope that they arrive at exactly eleven forty five, because here's what happens they and this happens with every company you know, that satellite cable, whoever, you know, everybody's company house. They give you the four our window. They come at four hours and ten minutes, right or they come at three hours and fifty six minutes. But you can't now because they can trump at any minute because you know they're not coming at or new or anything like that. So you can get a little bit of a delivery. And that's the first delivery. You don't know, right, but they come from Long Island all the way on Farmingdale, so you know you're the last delivery because you're in Jersey. That right, I'm probably right, or I'm one of the last. So I can't nap because I'm afraid I fight. If I don't hear the doorbell, then I missed my delivery. Right, So again, not mad at them, just saying, so you will be going without your nap tomorrow. Yes, well, you're full of energy right now. You have your not today, right, and that's all that matters that I posted a picture of of of me at PC Richard outside. I'm like, it's gonna be a fun day because you know me scary. If something plugs in, I love it, like I just I like Tonics. I gotta say, during the past year of this freaking pandemic, I have I have upgraded a lot of technology in my house. I've done a lot. In fact, I just a brand new webcam I got for when we go video, when we do video, when we do live streaming, when we get to that point, who's we you and me? Remember episode one oh seven when we joked about episode one oh seven when when when I joked about wouldn't it be great to do the podcast from home, and we were in the in the cushy studio, and you left and you you yelled because there was an email that just came in about it, and you yelled. We will never do our podcast from our houses ever. We will never go there. Scary as long as I live and I but it will be great, It'll be awesome, and it'll be an awesome switch up. We'll guess what. We've been doing it for the past five can thirty two weeks from our houses, so you know what. I bought myself a live streaming webcam because you never know when we're gonna do live streaming video for our podcast, and know exactly when we're gonna do it when when hell freezes over. I'm not doing video al right whatever. I can't wait. But I bought some flood lights and this is my point lights, my listen, I'm back to see your face when I got When we do zoom calls in the daytime and I'm sitting here at my desk, I am back lit like a motherfucker because the sun is out and backing me and everything, and I look like the banker on deal or no deal. So I'm I'm telling you right now, wear a bag on your head. My point. Yeah, I'm a silhouette. So I bought the professional movie The Lights with Boy for them with barn doors. I have a ring light, I got three lights. I got three point lighting system here, which is a professional studio. You have barn doors, like like you're an ugly animal. What does that mean? The barn doors are the little black shutters that are that you can adjust on the light. That's how Auntie these lights are. So I got three of them, which is a studio set, a professional studio setup. And this freaking Mevo webcam which is phenomenal. Drop with me. It's a ten A DP man good thing records in four K. You can listen. You want to talk about gadgets, and I've bought a lot. And that's because I'm fucking bored. Because what would I be doing, Brodie? If these Warren Corona Corona times, what would I be doing? You'd be out of a restaurant, I'd be wherever. I'd be out wherever, partying I'd be, you know. But this is what occupies my time and my money. Now, I just I'm building up my home situation, you know. Now. Now I'm gonna get a backsplash for my kitchen. Maybe i'll redo my bathroom. Who knows. I have a question. You said the camera was ten a d P four k. Yeah, you know those are two different things, right, No, no, no no, one one ten no no, no. It records. It records in four k onto its microdisc, but it streams live in ten eighty BECAU because that's the maximum it does. Don't funk with me, Brody. I know what I did. I know what I thought you were like the way. The point is, I see you're spending a million, three and other million dollars on equipment to make yourself look better. Right, I'm gonna read the email a little while from the woman who pointed out that it was episode one or seven where Brody refused to ever do the podcast from home because I didn't expect a pandemic to hit, you know, every hundred years, I should have anticipated it. Listen, I I wanted. I'm really excited right now because this isn't really a scam. But I thought it was a scamboni at first. But it's not a scamboni. It's just you're texted. First of all, you texted me major Scamboni. Well it's it's it's a straight up catfish. Okay. Second of all, three minutes ago I mentioned I posted a picture of me outside PC Richard's son. I just said one quick, one thing I want to say about it. I want to give a shout out to Andy Lyman L Y M A N. You're taking a piss. No, my washing machine is draining. Hold on, it sounds like you're taking a piss. Yeah, I'm taking my headphones off. Hold on the hell, I swear to guy, it sounds like a toilet or something. Why don't you get some soundproofing for your little uh den studio over there? Can we can't we waste it all this time, Brodie, I can't believe this guy in the middle of the podcast. You got dream too. If I took my headphones off, I'm talking to the listeners the slices. I made a tactical error. See, I told you I don't want to start the podcast because I had like six minutes left or seven minutes left on the washing machine. Because okay, the reason we're getting a new washing machine is that this one has to two problems with it that I tried to get fixed. One of them is a u L error, which is un level load. All right. I hate when that happens. I got every once in a while it thinks it's unleveled, like there's more towels on one side than the other. Right, yes, so it stops. You have to like move stuff around and hit start again. The other one is SD okay, suck your own dick. No, that's r S and your day. I don't do that. If it my washing machine did that, I wouldn't be replacing it. So the SD error says there's too many suns in the machine. But guess what, there's no suns in the machine. There's also no ghost to the machine, thank you please. So we have to get a new machine. So I came down here because the washing machine should have ended an hour and a half ago and it's stuck in on level load. So I leveled it out and I hit the I hit the stock button, and I had like a couple of minutes left, and then you're like, let's go, yeah, because I have something to get to. I have something with it with an expiration date on it. We gotta milk. No way saw I stopped it and I opened the lid so it wouldn't. But again, because I opened the lid, it figured it must it should drain itself. So it decided just now to drain itself. And that's okay. Everyone forgives you. But again Instagram, I want to give a shout out to Andy Lyman, who said, because I didn't write what I bought, I just put a picture up that I was going in to buy stuff. He said, so what did you buy? The suspense is killing me. So I want to ask Andy a question now that you know I bought a washing machine? Was it worth the wait? Like? I hope your day was more interesting work what I want at PC rechard Son. So what was your SCAMBOONI? Well, it was a major scamboni. Get hold on, this is not a scamboni. We're not gonna yours will be a scamboni. This is more who said this is more of a catfish. It's it's because it's not really a SCAMBOONI because what happened in the end, you lie to me. It's not you relixed in me. Hold On, you texted me, um, you said, are you close to being home? I got a huge scamboni. The plot twist, yes, I do, but it's not. Okay, I'm gonna let him tell the story I have. I have a Slice for Life on the phone, ready to go. So the plot twist is it's not a scamboni. No, no, no no. Do you know how we've been talking on this podcast about about, you know, going to dating sites and getting cat fished. Yes, someone's using your profile picture? Right. Okay, Well, so there's this guy Mike okay who the guy named Mike from Brooklyn by the way, who's tell okay, what are the odds? Guy named night, Mike from Brooklyn, okay, who basically wanted to hook up Maureen. Okay, Maureen. Maureen is a hook up with Marin marine up. But Maureen is like, fuck these dating sites funck, all these trolls and assholes. Um so why don't you pretend you're me and find me a man? So meet Mike from Brooklyn. What's up? Mike? Yeah? What up? Boys? How are you? Mike? This is it's it's it's more like an honest scamboni, though it's not like a full scamboni. Thank you, thank you, thank you. You could an honest scamboni. This know, that's an oxymorn. You can't do that. She didn't, she didn't come to me with it. It was like, you know, she's as single and she's you know, very good looking, best friends with my wife, single and I just couldn't believe it. I said, you know, why don't you go on a date dating website? She was like, no, you don't understand how those things are. It's it's fucking ridiculous out there. I was thinking, how hard could it be? So I said, I'll make you a profile, and that's how this started going. So but before you go any further, why don't you explain now, by the way, if you were a guy out there on these dating sites, like you know, back in the day, I once was, this is why women, this is why women never ever get back to you, or why you get one or two messages to get a day because it's a guy running me. No no, no, no, no no, Mike, why don't you explain you posing as a hot woman, okay, what you experienced and how your eyes popped out of your head? What goes on as soon as a woman the second a woman opens up her fucking dating profile that day, it's like, oh, it's Tuesday. Let's see if I got a new messages? What do you see? Explained to Brodie and everybody listening. It was impossible to understand what I was gonna go through. Like it was like fresh fish in a in a prison. It was just like as a guy that you still on dating websites. I would get, you know, one or two messages a day. I opened that profile for her. Now to be clear, year she had nothing to do with it. So I picked the pictures I did, I did everything. It was only linked on my phone and I opened the profile. I'm not I'm not joking. I threw on my song. I got like a hundred messages a day, and ninety nine of them out of a hundred were like you were a princess. I want to lick your feet. Where do you live? I'm gonna come there now, like it was a fucking jungle out there. I'm not serious, So don't do. First of all, no wonder why guys can't nice guys can't get a word in edgewise and get any messages back. And secondly, if you're a woman, you're creeped out by this ship and you're you have your guard up and you build up walls. It was crazy like and other guys would just be like, you know, I have a Lexus and uh, you know, and a Ferrari, like which car do you want me to pick you up in? Fully sushi on the beach and look at the moon. It was like one after the next. I was like the funk that I sign up for. It was crazy, really crazy. And then guys talking to themselves. I would get eight nine mess in a row like like when do you want to hang out? I'm available Friday? Are you available Friday? And in the end it was a good system, like so I would weed out like let's say there was a normal looking guy, came out pretty nice. I would show my wife. Sometimes she would take it back, and sometimes she would be like, you know, this has a shot. And then I would give it to a Maureen who would say, you know, all right, just could go somewhere and she would take over from how Maureen had nothing to do with this the entire time until you were ready to like, you know, throw a guy at her. Not not a fucking thing. I did a complete screening process. But I and by the way, if you're a guy out there, because a tip I can't tell you the amount of Jim selfies Dad from selfies, like just these got awful pictures of like no wonder you can't as a girl, you can't find something someone out a day thing impossible, literally a possible. Now, did you show these pictures to your friend Maureen? Did she like any of the pictures? Yes? So every now and then she would she would take over and she would, you know, chat with them, and then a lot of it went nowhere and where it gets funny and interesting is so the guy she eventually ends up with. I would show her and she was like, yeah, all right, and I would keep talking to him and I was like, listen, this is and furious. You know, why didn't you come over Friday for drinks and we'll talk to him together. But when she came over, like I had to explain everything in three days of like chatting with this random dude, which felt so awkward to begin with because she can't ask them, ask them where where do you work? Because I asked them three fucking days ago? So you had a prep Maureen for this guy she's about to meet a person. You ruined all her chit chat, right right? I ruined no not in person, like, so when she came over my house with my wife her drinks, she just like we pulled up the computer and took over the conversation. But yeah, I had to prep her for everything that she should have known about him. When this guy wanted pictures of Maureen, did you you send current pictures of Maureen? Or did you get Maureen to pose? And some lingerie like what what? What? What is your wife allowing you to do? So? So on the on the app, I already posted like four or five pictures of her, like good pictures, so he knew what she looks like for the most parts. And when they went to dinner he finally saw her in first right, But would your wife, let's say she didn't have any sexy pictures, would your want to let you take like, hey, Maureen, I need some cleavage shots? Would she let you take some cleavage shots for the cause? It's a good question, you know, maybe I'll have to show the project over and uh for the next time, save that for next time. Yeah, my wife's pretty cool, maybe, but and I don't want to be anti climatic a stipps at the end. But they winded up getting engaged and not only that, they were like so yeah, that they're engaged and now they're they're so overwhelmed with what I did for them, they asked me to officiate their wedding. How crazy is this? Who told the guy who did that? But oh so after a couple of days she didn't say right away, but when they we're definitely getting cool, and she wanted him to meet us. I think like either that night or the next night we les we got game. So so she was like, Steve, I want you to meet the guy you were talking to who we're pretending to be me the entire time. Maureen one, Hey, Steve, I gotta go. He wanted question Mike, So what was the Were there any pictures of this guy Steve that he sent to you slash Maureen, like shirtless with his hand down his pants, Like, was there any pictures where he go, Holy sh it, I sent these pictures to Mike. No, we had never got that far, and they were he had like maybe six or seven profile pictures. It was enough to get a little foot. It never got I didn't you know, I was not taking a bath far Obviously he didn't go. He didn't cross any lines, but oh my god, man, that's the guy's less. I mean, I'm not I'm not exaggerating. Like, over the course of three or four weeks, I probably went through like two to three thousand messages and it was insane. What these guys say insane. Now, did you write them back like a woman or did you write them back like a man? Or did you ignore them? Other words? Did you write back and go, hey, buddy, don't be a dick right like? Did you write back in mike, dude, it's so funny you asked that. It took me a while to get into like the woman groove of ship because so I would like screenshot my wife like messages on some conversations that may have had potentials, and she would just text me back like she's be like, dude, you sound like such a guy. She's like up the girl up a little bit girl. So, so how do you transform a guy statement to make that same statement or get your point across by being a girl? Please? Dress did you dress up? Did you dress up a little? A lot of a lot of L O l's emojis like abbreviation emoji heavy, emoji heavy. So that's great to try and put your try and take yourself out of your own shoes and put yourself in the mind of a woman. Actually, I'll give you I'll give you a specific example of one guy said I work in the city. I was like, oh, that's cool, Like the city's a junal now the days, mccrony, you gotta be careful you don't get sucking shots or mugged by a drug addict wrote that, Yeah, my wife was like, you idiot. She's like a girl would never say that to a guy. So like, I had to tow it down a little bit. So how did you say it? Well, I already said that, how did you How did you recover? How did you recover? From Mike? You're not gonna sound like Marie like, yeah, a bunch of jabronies are walking around the street, right I think. I think I blew it with that guy, thank god, But like the the next couple of guys that wherever the conversation. When I I a lot, I find this so fascinating. I find this so cool. And by the way, I find this so lazy on the part of a part of Maureen who's just like, yeah, fuck it, just find me somebody and and just throw my you know what now understandably. I think she was exhausted from it because she's done it in the past. So she was like, I give up, Like that's why she was singled. She was like, you want to give it a shot. You could fucking try, but you know, I'm I'm done. Like backup. If radio and these podcasts don't work for me, I think I could. I could do what you did. You can't be a woman, man, I feel like a woman. I can do it. I can do it. It's very difficult and it feels unnatural. It's very difficult because, uh, Mike, you realize when when somebody says to Maureen, hey, how did you and Steve meet? She was like, oh, uh, he he met this guy friend of mine on a date on a dating app, he said. Ultimately, he's ultimately like, oh yeah, he met a guy a friend of mine who's a guy on on a dating app, and he passed him up to me. You basically catfished. You catfished this dude you did on her. They get asked that all the time. I think she said, don't hold me to this. Like they had a tough time explaining to their parents, like how this all went down, Okay, why don't they just explain it as I met him on a dating app, that's it, or through a dating app. We met through I think so in a way, it's just what we call a scamboni but or a catfish. But the plots wish being they're engaged. Yeah. I know, but this guy, Steve, this guy, listen, Maureen must be smoking hot because basically Steve got catfished by a dude pretending to be a woman. Yes, he got spoken. He fell for male male font and thought it was female fond female font. Right, So if I'm him, I'm going was I attracted to Mike the whole time? Was I exactly like what Mike wrote to me? That's why you know that I never thought that that's a great point. That's brody, by the way, when it's the clever and fightful stuff, it's brody. Yeah, this guy may have had feelings for the masculine person typing because you were you were you as much as you were trying to be female. You were typing like Mike, and that's what he marked. He loved. He fell in love with Mike. He fell in love with Mike talking sports. He's like, Wow, this girl is really cool, she's in this girl marine. I called into to get to give you guys inside on this, But you just threw me for loophole, because if you if you gotta think about it for a loophole, you know, Mike, I will say this though, it's so true. He maybe have been attracted to you because you were acting like a guy a little bit and you were and you know, maybe he felt like he had a lot more in common. Maybe that's what formed the connection, the initial bond. So you never know. Oh my god, I love the whole marriage is based on a lie. It really is. What happens when she finds out that that that Maureen is not into sports and banging chicks, he'll probably he'll probaly to be happy. I don't know. Yeah, he's like so so Steve's like, so, have you ever slept with a woman, And Mike's like, yes, I have, I slept with many women. He's like, wow, this is Maureen Chicken. She's versatile, crazy crazy. Let me let me tell you it was. It was time consuming and the mental spaceboard man with these messages, I just cannot believe that the average guy out there was as brain did and animalistic and just so of course. Yeah, but that's how most guys are. You know, we're wired that way, right. But what's Maureen gonna say though, Like when they're married for like a month and they're sitting around like the TV's on the watch Netflix, So well, when's Mike coming over? Yeah? Musically like coming over? It's like Mike's my friend. Oh really because I met him on a dating side, he's my friend now too. I wow, you got you got something going on there. Yeah, but you know, this is very telling though. There's so many takeaways on this, you know, with with especial it really are if you're a guy on a dating app. I mean I feel like everybody can relate to that one. So wait a minute, I just realized something. What's that you're marrying? Technically you're marrying Steve indirectly, I guess. Yeah. Yeah, So so Maureen met a guy that her friend Mike met on a dating site, and Mike married that guy, right that those statements? Yes, yes? And when is the wedding? Uh, they haven't sort of yet. Just they just got engaged like a month ago. I mean it's been it's been like so so fast development. This happened in the summer and they're already so we you know, I know that you had mentioned off the air that you that marine and Steve wanted to meet us. So maybe next week or in a future podcast, we could have Maureen and Steve on You know what, Why don't I have Steve meet some friend of mine? Yeah, pretending to be me? Yeah, totally totally tell you. Gonna have them go into the serial Killers podcast and call it the Broken Boys. That's right. So Mike are you are you? Are you ordained like or you have to like fill out paperwork? No, I gotta do all that ship online. I don't even know where to start. Like, you know, I was excited when they asked at first, and then I hung up. I was like, do you feel I feel like you bite off more than you can chew in life? I mean, first of all, taking on the role of Maureen in itself was a huge It's probably took up like a full time job. You're like Mike Green again. But I thought I was gonna get like once or two episodes a day. I'd be at work. I'm pretty busy at work, Like phone would be buzzing all day. It was probably it was a crazy couple of weeks. Now, does your wife ever say to you now, like when you get into an argument that you say something that's like very guy ish, like did you learn nothing about being a woman, Mike, don't you know what you should be saying to me? So conversely, guys maybe should maybe they should act like women to pick up women on these apps, right, I'm you could be throw the emojis around, yeah, because this way a woman could relate to a woman and fall in love with Yeah. No, think about the psyche on that if if it happened from if Steve was attracted to Mike for being slightly male leaning, maybe a woman would feel like a softer or you know, not rough around the edges kind of guy or more. You know what I'm saying. You could maybe maybe, But I gotta tell you what I found so insane too. Besides, like the gym selfies, the bathroom selfis. I enough, they were so many guys like would send these winky face emojis and like it was just non stop. I couldn't believe how like dainty they were being too. Again, I don't know what you know what the dating site is nowadays? I'm it Adama for a little bit, but I mean it just they didn't seem up the speed with you know, guy code. I don't know that there. Basically you got all types on there. Oh my god? How many how many dick picks did you get? Don't think any but a lot of shirtless one, A lot of shirtless one. Now if they were hot and shirtless, did you say to your wife look at this guy. Can you believe you said in this picture? What? Did you delete it real fast and never tell your wife about the hot ones? Yeah? No, I phoned him right to my wife. Pass it on if you want, all right, all right now, Now Maureen is a friend of your wife's. Right, you met how through your wife? Correct? Correct? Uh? Could you have seen yourself ever hooking up with Maureen if you hadn't met your wife? Uh, that's a really good question. I don't think I'll take that as a maybe, Mike, you know, I'm gonna take it as a no way to put the guy on the spot. The guys, you guys like spending you know, trusting in us on this podcast, and then you go in and asking fucking question the correct answer. Scary asked me if I would be interested in my wife's hot friend God and asked me, Brodie, would you ever be interested in correct A, Mike, thanks for hanging out with today. We're gonna roll out of here, but we appreciate you. And maybe we'll maybe we will have Steven Maureen on in the future show We'll see we'll have Stephen make on and we'll have Mike pretend to be more exactly take care everybody. Uh later, Well, that was a that was a lot to I needed that commercial break to recover from that. That Listen, Truthfully, I had no idea you're putting that guy on the phone. I know you didn't, but that's what I'm saying, Brody. You gotta trust me and and and that's why we just gotta hit the ground running. Like I mean, I abruptly started the podcast. I apologize that you didn't have time to get your headphones to stop your watching machine. Yeah, but you know, sometimes we need to do those kinds of things. I wanted to get to it. I wanted to hit the ground running today. I really did, all right. You know, you know, were on a fifteen minute morning show today. What's today's day? My sister's birthday. Yeah, by the way, we were talking about birthdays a few days ago, and you're like, oh, shoot, I just remember it's my sister's birthday. I don't know how you don't remember it's your sister's birthday. Like you don't have alerts on your phone. I don't. I don't have any siblings. But if I can't imagine you getting like I have, I have a few. There's a calendar that might have connected to Facebook at some point back in the day. And on the right, you didn't get her a gift as of two days ago. No, I didn't. Yeah, I didn't. So I have I have. I have a couple of questions. So anyways, I'll take it. Tell us in a minute. This morning's podcast, we talked to Scotty B from our Big Show, Yes we did, was saying how he can't throw anything out. He saves everything. Right, I'm sort of like that with some things, and so a lot of times I hate to admit this. If something breaks, but not like it doesn't work, like it's not as good as it could be, or it's cracked. I'll buy a replacement, but then I'll keep the cracked thing as a backup, right, Like I'll keep it in case the new one doesn't work, but I'm like, oh, you know, it's still workable, so I'll keep it. So I have a my wife and I bought washing a washer and dryer set maybe fifteen years ago that's supposed to last like ten years. But I got a service contract with UM with PSC and G that, which is the electrical company in our area. And so for like, you know, ten dollars a month, I'm covered. They come to no matter watting it, whatever it costs, they fix it. So we've been keeping these things going for a long time. And when we bought them, it was trendy to have washers and dryers and colors. So these are like a periwinkle blue. Because I have a slight obsession with blue, I buy everything blue if I can. And so I'm only buying a washing machine because the dryer is still working pretty good. So but they don't make blue anymore, so they're not gonna match. So I'm getting sentimental about my blue washing machine, which is stupid. I understand that it's completely stupid, but I'm gonna miss the matching blue, So I just I feel but it's too big of a thing to keep, Like if it was smaller I would keep it like in the attic that what's your salutan? Um My solution is I'm gonna have to get rid of it. But um, I posted on Facebook in my um My town Facebook page. I'm gonna paraphrase because I'm not gonna pull the page up. But here's what happened. I wanted to sell the washing machine because although it has a couple of little errors in it, um, if I sold it to a place that buys used appliances, they could fix it, right, They could put in parts for it and probably get a few hundred dollars for it. Because new this same machine is like seven, right, maybe, so if you could fix it, maybe you could sell it at two fifty to somebody. There's a lot of places that sell used appliances. So I posted, and I was very specific, of which I always am. I said, do you know for a fact, and I put factor capitals. Do you know for a fact that of an appliance place that buys used appliances, I have a washing machine I would like to sell to a place that buys used appliances. So that's pretty sounds specific, sounds clear, But we already know the end result. We already know what's gonna happen here. Yeah's you already know. I have no luck. And people are like, why do you bother bones thing on Facebook? You don't, you don't get any responses you're happy with. So uh, one guy wrote, I'll come tomorrow and buy them from you. I'll buy the washer. But that's not you know, that's not the question you asked. Right, you're not saying right, I know what's gonna happen here. This is this is like the situation all over again. Okay, So I said, excuse me, I haven't even told you what the price is. I'm not selling the dryer and I'm looking to sell it to a It's not working properly, so I'm not looking to sell it privately. So that a woman writes back, well, why don't you list what's wrong with it so I know whether or not I want to buy it. It's not for self exactly. Then someone writes to me, um, there's a bunch of places in Newark that sell used appliances. You could try there. What new work? You're just gonna just haul it to Newark and you're just gonna look around and you're gonna, i mean, be specific. People right, So so I said, so he says, I don't know which ones by yourself, but I guess you could google it, And I said, thanks for pointing out I could google it because between you, me and you and me, scary. I did google it different days. There's no place that I could find with the correct search words. I love how people offer that up as a solution. They take time out of their day to write, you know you could google it, like like, isn't that what led you to Facebook? To begin with the fact that you did google it and you couldn't find me your answer. I was kind of hoping for firsthand information. That's why I wrote do you know for a fact that a place because I don't want you to tell me. So that somebody wrote, um uh yeah, Google is not gonna be helpful. I go, I know Google is not gonna be helpful. I want someone who knows for a fact of a place that buys used appliances. Good luck, right, So this one on like fifteen posts with people saying the dumbest ship to me, like, well, if I knew what was wrong with it, I might beach did buying it. I don't want to sell to you privately because there's things that are broken, and I don't want to sell a broken washing machine to somebody. Then I gotta hear how it's broken. You want money. But so it's so I'm anyway, bottom lines, I'm not getting a penny for it. I know it has value, so that's bothering me. Also, so I'm just I'm just miserable. You know, you're a miserable person. I mean in general, Hey, that's not true. You are you are you are. You know you try to be happy, but you gotta find you know, I think you just need to flip the script and find the silver lining and things. You know, you'll be much happier. You'll you'll even have more You'll have more patients, your blood pressure will go down. Not that not that your doctor or anything. But you know, I want to point out too at something that, yes, what's hot? What it did bother me a little bit? What's that? So? The Brooklyn Boys Slices has a Facebook fan page right that you and I are not members of. We are not members of. We don't look at it, we don't know we it's like you guys talking behind our back. But somebody sent me a screenshot of of a young of a of a woman who has a complaint about me. And right above it, by the way, they'll be talking about this segment, And right above it was a guy, a guy who complained about something else. Okay, So I want to read the two complaints and I want to address them. So this guy wrote anyone else triggered? So last episode, you guys listen in order anyone else triggered by Brodie's car rental rant, especially with the part where he says a new camera could fit into my trunk. Then he writes as if I'm reading this, which he didn't know, I would be Brodie. The new camera is almost a comparable size to the charger, not even close to being as small as he said. Now he's talking to me like I'm not the person reading it. Also, charges are known for being somewhat cramped and not super roomy, like he says, loved me some Brodyan scary, not not a problem. But the car guy in me got so irked. Now he wasn't upset. He put a smiley face. But I want to address that. Okay, that's well, that's fine, polite, that was polite. Yeah, Okay, I want to address that to address that sir um comedy comes from exaggeration. I don't really think a camera can fit in the chunk of my car, So don't let that bother you. Um. I was just pointing out I like a big car. Now. I never said I like a big car because it's roomy. I like a big car because it makes me feel safe because it's a giant car. And I feel like I'm not gonna like lose out to a smart car if I hit it. So it isn't about leg room. It's about I like a big car on the road with a big engine. Okay, And I know the camera is very nice. They redesigned. It's a beautiful car. Nothing personal against the camera. I also I'm not a big fan of Japanese cause I don't like the where they lay out the steering column or the or the or the radio situation or the nav. I don't like foreign cars. I just don't like it, Okay, especially Japanese cause for me, they're very nice. Cause it last a long time. So I went and looked up Toyota camera is approximately a hundred. I love that you did extensive research on this. Right, A camera is approximately a D and a charger is approximately two one inches, so that's a nine inch longer car. Okay, the width of the car, the charger is up to two inches wider. It's Brody, the lawyer has to be right here. We go on a debate stage and it's about two inches higher. You should have been a lawyer, David Brody. No, I just want to address Will you are. That's his name, Will Will. I'm not mad at you. I just want to let you know. The camera is a beautiful car, and that's where I would have stopped right there, Like you know what comedy comes from exaggeration, No, end the story you research it. Hold on, I want to prove this guy wrong and his nose and his ship. No, not at all, just what it sounds like. Nope, I'm a car guy. Also, I wanted to see how big the camera is now, all right, okay, because I I like Okay, so I'm not going to mention her name. So she wrote I hate that I stopped listening. No, I hate that I stopped listening. I just can't take Brodie always bitching to the point that it's not funny and always demanding something for free from someone. Okay, So so uh m Nicoll you M. I hope you hear this, even though you claim you're not listening anymore. I'm not mad at you. But the whole podcast and the book that I'm working on is about me asking for free dessert. Right, It's about my philosophy and life. Yeah, that you should never be taking it seems to be. I don't know, Brody. It may be a common theme on every single it might be a thread on every single episode of this podcast. Okay, Well, if that's the case, then that has helped us be successful because you and I both have stick. Right, people have listened, But to listen for a hundred and fifty eight hundred and fifty episodes and go yeah, man, Brody rants about stuff. He wants free stuff again, I don't want free stuff as much as I want what I feel I'm entitled to. Okay, right, but I look, I would hope if you know who m is Tapper on the shoulder now, the guy who sent me the screen shot. I asked him to please email her will post and I said, please let her know that I will that it's unfortunate. I feel bad about it that she's not enjoying the podcast currently. Um, and if there's anyone else who feels that way. I apologize. That's the stick and we're being real, right, that's this is what my wife deals with. So that's just who are carry said, let's do a podcast. Let's just talk about our lives. So that's what we do. So I'm not I'm not bitching like like, oh, I'm gonna let's scare I'm gonna make up something a bit. That's my life. I'm trying to make the bitching. And we have all kinds of if you listen to these episodes, we have a million different things that we talked about and until for an hour. But it wasn't like but we don't always. We don't always bitch. I will say though, during quarantine, I've noticed to her point in the last in the last thirty weeks, there hasn't been a whole lot going on. There has not been a lot going on outside. We haven't been going we've been going stir crazy in our houses. There maybe may or may not be a little bit more to bitch about. So we maybe do you know, Brodie, let's make let's make a deal that on the next episode of The Brooklyn Boys, hold on, let's see if we could do this. We don't do anything that has to do with any bitching. Just but she won't hear it. Well, we'll get back to her at some point, but let's try. Let's try. Listen, we do everything, we cover so much ground, and we just took a phone call. I mean, we do you know, believable. It was an unbelievable call. Occasionally we do that. Yeah. So anyway, yeah, so we have our moments and and so it will be you know, this too shall pass there, m M, whoever you are. Yeah, Um, I want to talk about a scamboni, but I want to preface it by saying that when I went to college, my goal originally was to be a lawyer. I just I love the law. I love watching legal dramas. I love debating, you know that, I love finding out it. You know, I'm just reiterating. So this scamboni particularly bothers me about something. So I had, as I mentioned in my Giant Dodge Charger on January January three. Okay, at a car accident I got I got sideswiped by uninsured, unlicensed driver. Thankfully the insured was in the car. Okay, that was January three. On January five, I received three letters from lawyers, all basically saying the same thing. It has come to our attention you've been involved in a motor vehicle accident. We learned this information from the Blah Blah Blah Township Police Department accident report and have attached a copy of same for your records. Now, first of all, this is the fifth, that means the day of the accident. Somehow they got the information of my accident right and attached a copy of my police report fast enough to get it to me by the five, which means the mail takes let's say a day minimum. They got the police I had the accident at three thirty four o'clock on the third, which means it probably didn't get processed maybe until five o'clock maybe me and I don't think the officer went running back to the precinct to go and process my paperwork, unless he was looking for overtime where he was working the night shift. Somehow they had enough time to get the copy of the I'm looking at. It's the police report right with my with my VIN and my address, my name everything on here right in enough time on that um Sunday. I had the accident on a Sunday, scary on a Sunday on Tuesday. I mean a letter went out out dated the fifth. It took him two days. I got it on the sixth. So in a span of a couple of days, this guy got the police report and sent it to me and wanted to represent me, and so did the other two lawyers. Very aggressive. This happens a lot. I hope you aren't seriously injured. However, if you were injured through no fall of your own, we will assist you in getting your medical bills paye. Okay. By the way, I had a similar situation and the lawyers just somehow, they just find you and they run to you, and they all want to represent this company. Um. By the way, the it's a funny name. I just uh, I don't want to read no, no, over eight hundred million dollars recovered. Yeah, how could they eight hundred million? Okay? So it's got testimonials and the point is uh. And then it says um our client was in a in a vehicle, was rear ended while traveling on the Garden State Parkway. She received emergency room treatment, she got two where's the scamboni? Though? Do we know these stories to not be true. I'll tell you what the scamboni is. The scamboni is when I spoke to the police officer, he said it takes up to five days for me to get my police report. Okay, So I called on Tuesday and they said it wasn't ready yet. I called on Wednesday, they said it wasn't ready yet. I called on Thursday. Thursday episode you suspect everybody's in on it, and then just waiting for the lawyers to get back to you, saying how do these three law firms get my police report on a Sunday or a Monday. When I'm told it's not ready until Thursday. My guess is they may off the record. They may be getting some kickbacks, and they're like saying, look here, we're gonna sell your your information to these law firms and say have at it, guys or something. I don't know if there's some back end where lawyers have access to that stuff. Well that well that honestly, you know, I'm not saying that my previous statement was a joke. I do think that they are on it. They have some access to some public file that you don't know about, that they get it instantaneously, so they're on the case. Okay, Well, guess what if they have access to it? Why the funk I don't want to have access to it? Why am I not allowed access to my police support report to my insurance company? But this guy blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah can get it before I can. They can different law firms because they were in the industry. It's the same thing with house listings Brodie. The general public and doesn't get it. And that's wrong. That Street Street Easy and Zillo and all this other stuff. You think you're gonna get it first, No way, all the good ship is snapped up by these real estate agents that are in the wait. I had to wait four days before I get my car repaired, waiting for this police support that blah blah blah blah blah blah. But why is it? Okay? But how does it? How does this ruin or change the course of your actions of your day? You weren't going to use any of them, hold on, It ruined my day because I wanted the police report on the Monday, so I could have got my car fixed sooner. That's first of all, Okay, second of all, I feel violated. I feel violated that these ambulance chasers. There's nothing you're going to be able to do about it, Brodie, there's nothing. It's out there, it's in the public, it's in the ether. No, it was ether them or me, and they got it. Yeah, that's that's a scamble. There's something going on there. I want information that change. Like it's mail time. Welcome, you've got mail. Please email us at the Brooklyn Boys Podcast at gmail dot com. Anything that you hear on this podcast. We'd love to read some of your email. We do that sometimes if we take it old school. Uh, Jamie Saul wrote to us. We she's she's a slice. I know her. She's she's all over. I love her. A name for the f you list. Boys Ready for this, Brodie? Yeah, you're with me, Yeah, I'm with you. Her dad is recovering. My dad is recovering from a stroke. He's in a wheelchair. So his doctors and the therapists come to the house. His occupational therapist recommended up dietrist who works with the agency and makes house calls. I'll call him doctor Foote Douche. You'll see why in a minute. Well, doctor foot Douche showed up once. Once he did the usual podietrist stuff. That was last summer. We've been trying to get him back for a second visit since then. He said he'd come for an appointment a few months ago, but never showed up. Since then, he hasn't answered any calls. He hasn't returned any calls. The agency has reached out to him. He told them he'd call back, but he hasn't. I looked for him on Google and found a review from someone saying he did the same thing to them, So fuck you foot Dr foote Douche. That's great, Hey, listen, it happens. Here's that email I referenced earlier from Katherine Watson saying, Hey Brooklyn boys Um, I wanted to comment on the episode I just finished number one oh seven. Just a recap on this episode, you talked about the difference in areas of Florida Scary wanted to stay in versus where Brody wanted to stay. But that's not why I'm e melling. I wanted to comment on what Scary said about how awesome it would be to work from home. I simply found this hilarious and figured that you'd get a kick out of it hashtag slice for life and which he's referring to again, is that Brody on that episode said he would never work from home? And here we are, Here we are ten months later. I had to buy a microphone. Uh. Then I had to have Elvis buy me in better. Are you poor baby? Investing in your craft? Yeah, investing in my craft. Listen, it's money I didn't have to spend. So it's been a it's been a hassle to sit in my cold basement where my washing machine your money on craft k R A f T. I'm wondering if I can expense the washing machine since I've incorporated into the podcast, I think now it is. I think it isn't the Elvis ranch. It's a sound effect. We don't Yeah, we don't have a department that would would pay mikes fences. We should start a department. We need an accountant account we'll be taking our money from it first and formost. We need a salesperson. Come on, let's sell us. Let's keep going. I'm hung Well that's that's a whole other thing. So and also, okay, so we've got a few more, but you have some other tweets or some things that you may want to read. Yeah, so uh so ms Trish eighty three, big fan of ours. She put up a a picture of herself wearing the blue hoodie on an instant story. I re reinstant storied it, re re grabbed it, so to speak, and then she wrote that's Brooklyn Boys dot Big Cartel dot com. She took my line the Vet's, which reminded me. Um, I just want to remind everyone, Uh, there's there's still some merchandise available. Um, and we're not we're not yet ready to replenish with new designs and stuff because we feel like we want you to check out what's there now. There's still some property of some things are selling. This may not have the size you want. So if you're if you're thinking about it, just being on to go to uh scare what's website again, Brooklyn Boys dot Big Cartel dot com. Uh, that's Brooklyn Boys dot Big Hortel dot com. Uh. I Also, let's see Alfredo had wanted me to do some advice. I'm not gonna tell you that one. Shout out to Heather Murphy. By the way, she, along with so many others, she's from New Hampshire and she's just sliced for life. Um, she's uh good, she's balls. She's an accountant whose balls deep in tax season. That's but she she alone with so many other people pointed out that Brodie's face is covered on the Apple podcast Not only the Apple Podcasts app, but the Spotify app now covers Brodie's face with their own logo when they're displaying our Brooklyn Boys logo, and everybody's saying that It's like when Mike Wazowski from Monster Zinc had his face covered on the cover of the magazine and they were afraid to show it to him, and when he saw his face was covered, he went, I'm on the cover. He didn't care that his face was covered. I do not care that my face is covered. I'm fine with it. But but our Heart radio doesn't do that. So that's why I recommend you listen on Heart Radio so you can see my face if you if you choose to. Uh. Nicolas cast Off sent me this just this morning. He follows an account on Instagram no on Facebook called rough Country and it's uh. They put up pictures of SUVs and RVs and just off road and trucks and country sounds like a porno hello hello uh. He wrote, what a shame? I like rough country, and it would have it would have been cool if they were a part of that project. And the reason he sent that is what they wrote was we loved being a part one word of this project from four Wheeler magazine. So props to Nicholas who noticed that apart is the exact opposite of a part. He sent me that little grammar police there. Um. Bailey just sent this to me during the podcast Bailey eleven underscore. Oh six, Hey Brody, if you have time, I have a bit of an issue. I'm currently at the airport. My first flight was delayed. Scare You're a major flyer, so I want your opinion on this. My first flight was delayed for weather reasons and I only had seven minutes to get my connecting flight once we landed, I did not make it. Now I have to wait two hours for my connecting flight. Is this grounds to ask for compensation? Or should I just let it go? Slice for life? Was it? Was it weather related or mechanical? So? Is it weather related related? So they missed it? Connecting flights to connecting flight? I already wrote them back. I want your opinion first, and she's got to sit at the airport for how long now or she's gonna come back to Uh. That's a rough one because I don't think that the airline. I know that I know what the answer from the airline is gonna be. So I mean, I would think, what would you want? What would I want? I would think they owe you something because I I would like a free set upgrade on that second flight to make my my life much more comfortable. I'd like to sit in business class and get a meal. That's what I would like. Um. But I think that they're going to claim that they owe them nothing because it's in there, you know, it's in their rules and regulation and the fact that there's another flight leaving the same day in a couple of hours. They don't consider two and a half hours as much of a delay. You missed the wedding or something, you know, something important, Well, then you may have grounds for which, by the way, you will invent if in your excuse, So what you talk to them at the counter, as you know, you will say that there was unless our former listener Am gets upset about that be wanting something for free. So what I wrote back was most times they will offer you a courtesy credit for your next flight. You could ask them for a seat upgrade if you want, which is what you said. Tell them it costs you money, it costs you time, and you had to buy airport food while you waited weather. It can't be helped out. But maybe they'll be nice. So we we basically agreed. You could ask. It doesn't hurt to ask, it doesn't. But I don't think that you're in this case of free dessert. I think that you will be. It's an uphill battle and you're not really in the right. You're kind of maybe like thirty in the right, and you just have to push yourself over the finish line and just making the ask as a hell Mary, I don't know if you'll get it. I don't know if you deserve it. I mean we yeah, we all deserve it, right, we conserve it. But you could ask. I would I it's worth it's worth a shot, but it's not worth an argument, and I'll let me speak to the supervisor Karen. Kind of moment right now. We mentioned a lot of companies on this podcast because we don't have a lot of sponsors, so it's free to say whatever we want, whatever we want. Alfredo Mercado d mned me. He said, Hi, I'm Alfredo, all kay, I work for UPS. I'm z D nothing bad here and I'm on the road all day and love just love the show. I listened to all the shows, all the podcasts, the old ones and this one, and I'm up to uh oh, listen to all the on demand channel els right on demand channel nice. I'm up to episode forty three of the Brooklyn Boys, but episode twenty one with the FedEx story is my favorite. Always because he works for UPS. I always us hit a car because of how funny it was. Keep it up, guys, love the show UPS. Alfredo. Now he's gonna hear this about a year from now when he finally catches him. Now, Jamie Saul wrote again, Mas she's she's all over it, but she's got another one. She wanted to talk to us about an old scamboni Um went to a hookah bar. Like many places, they had half price at certain times, from like four to eight, half price drinks. We get there at six. While we were there, we ordered a couple of drinks, some food and hookah All of our drinks were ordered during the half price drinks time frame. When we got the bill, we realized they charge just full price for the drinks. Uh, you'll have you have a case here. They didn't get the hook Yeah, hello, is this thing working even though we ordered the drinks that were on the half price list during the time frame. When we asked the waitress, she said, we were charged full price because the bartender used top shelf liquor. Now top shelf liquor isn't included in the half rice list, but did they ask for it. Neither of us asked for top shelf You ordered just general whiskey, sours and rum and cokes, but they used it so they could charge us more Scamboni plot twist. The place was later accused of using legal tobacco in the hookahs and they suddenly closed down. Well, you know what, karma is a bitch. That is what I have to say to you, Jamie in that case. But while you were there, I would have raised hell because there's several red flags here. Yeah I'm not paying that bill. No, because you ordered it in the right time frame and you just said rum and coke and you know you said gin and tonic. You didn't say give me a henessy and tonic, right? Fuck you hookah bar? Yeah, fuck you hookah bar. This is a text message we got to the big show today that I just I feel like, oh, maybe it's yesterday. I feel like it's fallacious, uh sealacious or fallacious fallacious thinking fallacy fallacious not fallacio is um although if you if you're fallacious thinking, it looked me up, all right. So, uh, Nate on our show has been complaining that people are throwing stuff into the dumpster in front of his house. They're doing construction and he's got one of those like forty ft long dumpsters in his house and it's on you know, there's no there's no lid. It's a forty ft dumpster. How could you possibly manually lift the lid if it was a forty ft long whatever it is, I don't tweet me to it's thirty feet or whatever it is. It's the big lung dumpsters, all right. So this person's idea was put a hazardous waste only sign on the dumpster so people will know that it's only for hazard his waste. Now do you know why this is a moronic idea, because people are gonna dump their hazards waste in there, that's right, that's right. People like first of all, they're gonna show up with they're fucking with their what do you call suits? They yeah, thats right. So first of all, if you're dumping in someone else's dumpster, you don't give a ship what the sign says. Also, is that supposed to keep you away from it? Or you just throw it from like five ft away? Then you'll fling your bags into it. I don't know what the purpose that is. Are you supposed to go all my stuff so hazardous I can't throw it in there. You're gonna throw it in there anyway. But but but you're encouraging people. Now look who has hazard of stuff? The point is it doesn't make any that's not gonna work, right, That's like that's like saying when you put up a sign that's just parking for Jim only, like like James parking with James only, Like fuck James, I'm parking there, exactly. It doesn't work. It never does. Also another question, scary you know, I mean I had you know, my great uncle Joe got rest his soul. He had a sign of part this spot, this area for parking for Italians only, that he got at the San Gennaro feast. He threw the golf ball, you know, he threw the ping pong ball into the goldfish ball, and he chose that instead of the goldfish. So so he literally had it up for years. And I'm like, Uncle Joe, you live in Italian neighborhood. First of all, everyone's Italian. This area for Italians only, you know. I I gotta be honest. Though I grew up in an Italian neighborhood, you and I grew up in the same neighborhood. I was one of the few non Italians. If I saw signed that said only parking if you're Italian, I wouldn't park down. Oh oh yeah, it could be. Yeah, I'm not. I'm not getting my card destroyed, my head bashed in no offense. But there were some tough people in my cars up on cinder blocks right right? Uh uh? What do I want to say? Oh damn it. We were talking about before you mentioned the uh no parking sign? I was. We were reading three email I got one more. This one's an audio one, and I don't I haven't Okay, So Brianna Calucci wrote to us about the rec's PCs debate. Um, by the way, we know it's Reese's pieces where Greece was a person apostrophees and and they were his pieces, Reese's pieces, that is the proper pronunciation. Yes, so she writes, scrolling through TikTok and found this video that I think, oh, you guys would like before I get to that. By the way, who's calling? It's not no, it's it's unavailable.

So I'm in a meeting right now with my uncle Ted and when you came on, score to God, and we're going over numbers. We were literally are having a meeting about podcasting in general. Understood, Okay, So how many? How many listeners? Do you have a lot a lot, so so much to listen if you just me, just honestly, just give me a couple of minutes I swear I will call you back before your meetings over. Okay, we're not discussing this. No, I need to meeting. How do you make? How much do you make? T how salad day? All right? I just honestly, honestly, you know, we show up in I Heart Radio's top one podcasts to promote that. I'm not being real right now. No, no, I know, I understand. I understand you. I understand you're being real. Bro am you real? Sure you can edit this out? How many reals do you have per week? Okay, before before you answer that, how many do you think we have? I don't know. I'm gonna okay, I know you guys been for a long time. You've a lot of that because because because behind it. If you said podcast, what you said, this podcast will go nowhere? Those are your exact words. So yeah, I mean yeah, I mean, I don't think it's the I don't think it's a great one. But whatever, scumbag Okay, okay, sizz legit? How any doubt? How manna do? How gonna do you think we do? We get downloads a week, dude, we got in the first ten minutes we posted. Legit? Legit? Yeah, yeah, yeah, Yeah, that's it. Okay, I hung up on him. You have to. He's he you know what. I feel like he knew we were recording. Now I feel like you told him, Well, he does know we do Wednesday night. So I think this is his way of like kind of getting in there, like, Okay, now you're helping him. Oh it doesn't matter. Come on, um Anyway, before he really interrupted, I was about to play the audio from this rec's PCs debate. This might be something, this might not but she but Brianna thought that this would be um funny because she found it on TikTok. So here it is. I don't know what we're gonna get. I like how white people always think they know something. It's rec's PCs. Bitch, all right, listen, bro get animated and political. And he did. Hereto. That's not what I'm about. But you've you've started something You've big to fight about. Small pieces of chocolate wreck candy would arguably the fattest dude on this app, so I feel uniquely qualified to talk about the situation. They are pieces that belong to a motherfucker named Greece. Yeah, they are Reese's pieces. He got right, up to the camera. On that one, all you saw is his eyes, nose, and mouth. Okay, here's the thing. If this was something like you were debating about whether Roosevelt pronounced his name Roosevelt Roosevelt, you would have to go back to all archive footage to hear them saying their own name. A perfect example is the names of bridges. When the people do the traffic in your local area are here, we have the Gothels bridge? Is it? And then you gotta go. You gotta research, But you gotta research with the name, right. But the Goths thing is a pronunciation thing. By the point where Roosevelt it's pronunciation, My point was, it's old. Okay, it's all timing, and it's hard to find Reese's pieces. You can look at the label. It actually says Reese apostrophees. Yes, right, it doesn't. It's not spelled Reese's. It's Reese apostrophees. And then the word pieces, a common everyday word like pieces of ship. It's pieces. If you look at pieces and and say pieces, you're five year old now if you say it, because that's the way you were raised and you grew up in a in a town that that that's what they say. And that you do you think it's cute depends on with that. I'm fine with that. Right. It looks philly because look, people in New York say things wrong all the time. But I'll acknowledge we say it wrong, right, we may, but we don't. You can't just get on TikTok and and say and like claim and plant you your flag on the moon and be like this is how it's pronounced. And this is the b all end all last word. Because you're going on the moon, you're gonn get the moons square. You're gonna can see that's're gonna get crushed you anyway. All right, So all right, can we take a break wherever we sat? And then I have a and then I have not I have another scamboni, another one, another one that involves women. Women who shower. You'll want to hear this, and scary. I feel like every woman showers. From the you said women who shower, some bathe There were also women who bathed, by the way, I don't know anybody who takes baths. I mean, occasionally you'll see a romantic bath or someone wants to just sexy women take baths, or they or they want to put the lights out, put some rows around it, you know, takes bats. Sexy women on TV shows they lift their legs through SuDS and they wipe their leg with the suddy, suddsy water. I would say the majority of our listeners just because the time constraints. Yeah, take showers with the occasional bath maybe once or twice. So women in horror films take baths always, except Psycho Wish took a shower. Okay, So before I get that, I was reminded something you and I talked about yesterday. When we do the podcast on Wednesday night, our company I Heart Media, through the app I Heart Radio, sends out an alert that tells you, hey, there's a new episode. And then he usually comes through on Thursday afternoons. And when that happens, we see our episode. Listenership goes through the roof. It's a it's a push notification on your phone. Right, Hey, here's a podcast. Check it out, your favorite episode of your favorite podcasts a new episode. Pause for a second. And while you're here. If if you're not getting those and you subscribe, please hit the subscribe button. You must please hit the subscribe button to our podcast. Or the download this way, this way, you like and subscribe, like and subscribe, and yes and download. Do all of that, but because you will be then added to the push notification list from when there is a new episode out. But Brodie, continue your story. So for some reason, our company uh for episode which was two weeks ago, didn't send out the push notification that week. Episode has about a quarter of the listenership of the episode before and after it, which means slices. You may have inadvertently skipped an episode, or people that are new to the podcast may have skipped an episode, or you may have joined us and you are a new listener. At nine we recommend a lovely episode, so check out one eight. If you haven't heard it, please we recommend you listen in order, but if you've listened out of order, we're giving you permission to go back and listen out of order to correct your out of orderness. Does that make sense? You know we're gonna do. We're gonna start issuing old episodes that that get like no traction as our bonus episode, but less less traction, like if something had let's say, episode was like like less than the rest. Something's wrong. Yeah, So you'm gonna do. I'm gonnas that you can't say, well, maybe it's not as good an episode, because you wouldn't know that unless you listen to it. Unless three thirds of three thirds three four the episode one nine crowd told their friends, hey, or the one seven people, we know who you are, Hey, we heard one fifty eight. Don't listen to one eight if you guys are sabotaging or one eight, don't do that. It's good episode. I'm telling you what I heard it, I lived it. It's quality, all right. Now, ladies, you've you've seen um. They call him facial massagers and they sell them at you know, in the back corner aisle of Walgreens of CVS, and they have him at shopper Image, the penis shaped facial massagers. Right, they called facial massagers, but they're actually like you know, they vibrators. They're vibrators there, g spot bumper. They have a whole line to them. So I saw a commercial for the first time for Flawless Clean spa spinning spa brush. Now it's a handheld thing with a couple of buttons and it's only plus ship and handling money back guaranteed, not a sponsor. If they'd like to be a sponsor, that'd be fine. And it shows women of alves, all colors, shapes and sizes, showering and using this thing on their back, on their um. They're they're they're above the boob area, like neck, calabone area, all the things that can show into their legs all there. And it's spinning. It's a spinning like round brush head. And it looks like it's a little too coarse, because initially I was like, this looks like it could be you know, And they're showing women like reach for an essential way, like ladies, you when you're time to shower, you know, And then they show it and it has like six different attachable heads. All right, this thing is clearly a vibrator in disgus, I'm gonna send you. I'm gonna send you right now because by the way, it's too also too convenient that you're in your shower and your massaging parts of your body and then it's like a second, I just I can just it's supposed to clean you in a scrubby way. I'm sending you the picture right now, let me know, we know. Nope, women are getting off in the shower with this thing. But here's the thing. All the women and all the women in the commercial for this it takes off dead skin. It exfoliates. Did you get the picture? Of course, I'm looking at it. Yes, okay, I'm actually getting turned on the face in the picture. What describe the woman's face and the angle of her head. He's got her face on. She's like, oh, not part of them. And she's by the way, she's all sudged up. She's got like the body. What part of the body is she exfoliating in the picture. It's the top of the top of her shoulder, right, yeah, right, I know that the top of the shoulder can be sensual if you you know, you caress it, you rub it, right, she's making it is. And it's a fun one though, advertising on major television station, this facial scrubber. It's no listen, this whole exfoliating dead skin thing. Come on. I saw an interview. I saw an interview I had I had multiple exfoliations, if you know what. So I saw an interview with one of these casino moguls from Vegas once and they were talking candidly. I think that actually might have been like with roll to Rolling Stone. It might have been a print article. Whatever it was. This guy was talking about how it was very important that in his hotel casinos he wanted to make it very attractive for women, and so to appeal to women, he had to make sure that every hotel room was outfitted with a removable fawcet in the shower, you know, the ones that are on the hose, because I like, I mean, look, I'm a guy, and I just like the whole I like that fucking spigott coming from the top, Give me that rain shower from the top, and and just like pour it on me heavy with high water pressure. But apparently he went into detail about no, no, no, you must install on the side of the shower where the you know, the controls are that extra piece that when you could switch between the overhead and then this removable massages. So he said at first, oh, so guys and whoever else could wash their undercarriage, But he was he was alluding to the fact that women were like using it to turn themselves on in the shower because it was removable, and that's what you can do with that, you know. So I'm like, interesting, I never thought of that. Here I am with my commercially. Here, hold on extraordinary. Okay, well listen to this woman. Okay, here we go. Go in your ordinary shower routine into an extraordinary body rejuvenating spat experience with the all new flawless Clint SPA, the Revolutionary Way to Clint.

Okay, have you I'll take the longest show hours of my life. It's a dead giveaway when the woman is like, I'm obsessed with it. Okay, Yeah, I can't get enough. It's got that long handle in those three revolving heads. Oh. I went in the shower for work on Monday and I got out on Wednesday. Old, I'm so exfoliated. I have no dead skin. Yes, you know that.
