snowflake, that elf on the shelf, what are you up to? What's your favorite holiday show, holiday budget, debt, health concerns, the holiday cycle. Here we go again. All this and more. Next, on Cabin Pressure.
Speaker 2:Sean, remember last week right now we are right in between Christmas and the New Year Remember when you were talking about your buddy Bill that didn't know crap about the elf on the shelf?
Speaker 1:Oh, yeah, bill. Yeah, I had to tell you this. He was clueless about the etiquette of an elf on the shelf.
Speaker 2:Yeah, my sister Yvette. She gave me a call and you remember Dylan, my brother's boy. Yeah, oh yeah, yeah, my great niece, her name is Josie Josie, josie, yeah, josie, if you're listening, this is a big shout out to you. My sister Yvette called me and she had an elf on the shelf too. Really.
Speaker 1:Yeah, named Snowflake. Snowflake, that's awesome, man. Snowflake's a perfect name for an elf in the shelf.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I thought it was too. But she said that they had planned on going to, they were down there for the holidays, for vacation, and that next morning they were going to the Tampa Zoo together. So they walked into the bathroom. I guess Josie and Snowflake had left a message on the mirror, on the mirror in the bathroom. Yeah, it said that he had never, or she had never, went to the zoo and she would like to go and if that would be okay, she'd like to tag along because she's never been there. That's cool, yeah, and I thought, well, that's pretty neat. But the best part of it was she went to go look for her bag and Snowflake was actually in this clear duffel bag. It's a backpack, clear backpack.
Speaker 2:Oh, yeah, how cool is that this elf now knew to get into Josie's backpack, a clear backpack, so they could see.
Speaker 1:Those little elves are crafty. They're crafty like that.
Speaker 2:I know, but it's cool because they knew that she can't touch him. They can't touch the elf. Oh right, right, right. So this way they could actually travel inside and see the zoo together for the whole day. So she had put the elf on her back, took her around, took them to the whole zoo, came back that night, put the elf on her back, took her around, took them to the whole zoo, came back that night, put Snowflake back down, went to bed, woke up and there was another message on the chalkboard. Oh yeah, what'd it say? Snowflake said. I wanted to tell you, Josie, I appreciate it, thank you very much for taking me. I had a great time and I just wanted to tell you how much I appreciated you taking me to the zoo today.
Speaker 1:That's cool, man. You know what you know. This is giving me an idea, because I think I'm going to leave a note for my wife on my mirror saying I want to like go to the Bahamas or something next week.
Speaker 2:You think it's going to take. No, you know something? Snowflake's got a better chance of going to the zoo than you do the Bahamas.
Speaker 1:For sure.
Speaker 2:Listen, josie. Honey, I hope that you had a great Christmas. I'm glad that Snowflake got to go to the zoo, and Annie Vette said that she had a great time too. So, honey, I hope you had a great Christmas, and I hope you guys have a great new year.
Speaker 1:All right, so what's been going?
Speaker 2:on man. Let me tell you, you know, this holiday season it's been crazy.
Speaker 1:It's been crazy.
Speaker 2:It has been. But you know I'd like to say what's going on with you, but I already know your ass has been sick.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I cannot believe this. Like last week, I just started getting that little scratch in the back of the throat and then here it comes. You know, as always, you know in our industry, you know sinus infections. That's like my first indicator. I know I'm going to get sick. Like that scratch starts happening, start feeling that pressure in my head, all that stuff, and you know what? I've got a freaking sinus infection.
Speaker 2:Now, how the hell does somebody get a sinus infection? I'm in a doctor's office all day. I just came from the airport still in my damn uniform and your ass has been here most of the day. How did you get a sinus infection? Lucky I was sitting here going. I'm going over to this sickling's house and he's got a sinus infection.
Speaker 1:Right, Dude, it's the worst. I hate them Because this you know, everybody in the industry knows sinus infections are the worst. You can't work with those because the pressure on your sinuses you blow out your ears and all kinds of stuff, whatever. But I'm not flying right now, but even if I was, I just hate that whole feeling.
Speaker 2:Did you just listen to what you said? The sinus infection blow out your ears. Now I'm sitting right in front of your ass and I'm like okay, your germs are coming over here. This is what I'm going to do If I get this. I'm going to do If I get this, I'm coming back next week and I'm going to give it right back to you.
Speaker 1:It's a vicious cycle man. It just keeps coming and coming.
Speaker 2:But sinus infections and flying do not go to good.
Speaker 1:But I'll have lots of antibiotics by next week anyway, so I'm not worried about you coming back and trying to contaminate me.
Speaker 2:Hey, but I'm going to tell you one thing, folks, and this is the truth All the years I've been flying and I was just thinking about this If you ever have a sinus issue and you are flying Sudafed 12-hour, I'm telling you Swear by it, swear by it. Man, it is in my bag, it will always be in my bag. I will never leave home without it.
Speaker 1:Well, I also have my second backup to that is the emergency Afrin. Yeah, oh, afrin. I mean you have to have, like I literally have brand new bottles of afrin. I've been on cruise where I've had some like new newbies on board and they're like they get that ear, ear block and stuff and they're coming down and I'm like I just reach in my bag and give them a brand new bottle of afrin, because I ain't sharing no sprays for anyone with anybody. Be like here, take this, this is emergency. You should this. This is going to clear you.
Speaker 2:Allergies, anything man.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I mean, it's almost damn near instantaneous, but I swear by that. Even my sinus doctor was like you know carry that with you just as an emergency, but don't use it on a regular basis.
Speaker 2:I keep that in my bag all the time, because of the hotels too. Remember we talked about the damn mold that comes through the air conditioning system.
Speaker 1:Dude the germs and the mold and stuff.
Speaker 2:You wake up, you can't breathe. Yeah, you can't breathe, sinus, headache and everything's hurting Air conditioning systems have gotten better because we've upgraded our hotels. Yeah, but they still, though, man, they're still bad. That mold is so bad. But you're right. Afrin and 12-hour Sudafed. Trust me, folks, those are the number one and two things I would always have with me. They're in my bag, they're in Sean's bag, yeah.
Speaker 1:Like before I even get on the plane, the hour before I'm popping Zutafed. If I even think that I might even get close to having that type of pressure in my sinuses, it's crazy. But other than that man, I've been just, you know, doing the same old thing sitting around here working my knee. It's a slow process but it's coming along and still working on books and stuff like that and, you know, just trying to kill time. I'm literally was thinking today how could you know? I don't even know how I'm going to do this in retirement, because retirement is coming up, we're going to be retiring pretty soon.
Speaker 2:We will be retiring. You will be retiring pretty soon. My ass ain't retiring anytime soon. You'll be retiring. No, it's not anytime soon, and we?
Speaker 1:are two men that do not sit still for long. I mean, we're always doing something, right.
Speaker 2:Well, I'm still in my damn uniform right now talking to you.
Speaker 1:So if you tell me that I just flew all day, he literally flew and then flew right in here to my house, to our studio here and started recording. But you got to do what you got to do to get this out once a week, right?
Speaker 2:Oh yeah, but that's the truth, though. Neither one of us are people that sit down for a minute.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I'm starting to go batshit crazy man, it's like this is going to be. I still got a couple more months going on here and I'm not going to go back to work.
Speaker 2:I am gonna go nuts, nuts, but anyways hey, at least you're gonna see me once a week. Yeah, you'll definitely see me next week, if my ass is sick.
Speaker 1:Oh yeah, yeah that. I just wanted to mention that.
Speaker 2:That's a bonus before you come in there, I'm gonna sneeze on your microphone did you hear that sarcasm of me?
Speaker 1:seeing you once a week? That's a bonus.
Speaker 2:That's not funny. All right guys. Hey, listen, I had seen this picture and it's definitely a rant of mine. People don't understand how bad it is when you clog a toilet up on an airplane. Sean, oh man.
Speaker 1:That's the worst, First of all. I mean, there's signs and placards all over the freaking aircraft Don't put anything down the toilet, but toilet paper. Right, Shit in toilet paper, piss shit in toilet paper that's what goes down there Exactly Anything else doesn't go down there.
Speaker 2:I don't know if they think it's a bin or what. They just throw all kinds of shit in there.
Speaker 1:I know, but here put that freaking baby diaper or whatever else Trash in it, they just don't trash, yeah, anything that could clog it up. This shuts down the whole aircraft, like that aircraft's going to get grounded.
Speaker 2:But it's worse is when you're in flight. Now you had two lavatories. Now you're down to one in the back.
Speaker 1:Yeah, unless you're on that one. We have the that are like universal on some of the aircrafts. Like one toilet goes down, they all go down, they all go down, yeah, yeah, and then that's not good, yeah, that's. That's really bad. I have one time in my career diverted for clogged toilets, but it does happen and you know what. You don't want to be the freaking parent or anything that threw that diaper down the freaking toilet that causes the divert.
Speaker 2:Isn't it amazing, even in this podcast, how much we talk about the damn toilet?
Speaker 1:Yeah, we talk about a lot of shit in that show, but isn't that the point?
Speaker 2:Yeah, it is Definitely. We talk about a lot of shit.
Speaker 1:That's for sure.
Speaker 2:Hey, did you see that there's another stowaway?
Speaker 1:Yeah, that's crazy man. I just don't get how people can do this, man. First of all, I mean on a serious note, the one point aspect about the whole entire stowaway thing is like first of all, how does that even as possible happen in today's world, like with our security?
Speaker 2:How do you get down on the ramp? I mean, they haven't really said who this was, but if this is a person that does not have a badge, how do they get down on the ramp?
Speaker 1:Yeah, I mean I'll be very interested in this investigation. How did that person get to that point? I mean, back in the days you know these type of stowaway things and people you know hiding in wheel wells, the plane and stuff been happening for a long time. I mean I think I was researching this a little bit they said like back to 1947 or something like that. This is where it started. But you know the planes that in the beginning didn't go as high as they do now. But now we go, you know we're cruising at 40,000 feet. I mean you're going to freeze to death real quick in those things.
Speaker 2:Well, we're going to talk about this person in particular in just a minute. But anybody out there that's listening to this podcast and if you had an idea of doing something stupid like this, don't read the section that Sean said about back in the 50s where they were at 10,000 feet. Read the part to where it says what happens at 40,000 feet.
Speaker 1:Yeah, Well, first of all, here's my thought on this whole thing too. It's like you know, we all are like big travelers and everything like that, but you know a lay flat seat or a wheel, well, I was sitting there.
Speaker 2:When I read this, the first thing that I thought is what made you think that you know? Okay, what do I want to do today? I'm going to go to the airport, I'm going to get down the ramp, I'm going to get into the airplane where this wheel, well, goes up, and I'm going to ride inside where the tire goes.
Speaker 1:Yeah, that's not smart. It's almost like something that's from like a. If the person did survive it'd be like a dumb and dumber thing, like they come out with the icicles and those frozen snot, snot sickles and stuff.
Speaker 2:Okay, we're going to get to that, and this is not. Trust me when I'm telling you this bad what happened to this person, don't get me wrong. But we're going to talk about the stupidity of this first. Right, so you get into this wheel. Well, the wheel. Well, right now it's wintertime in Chicago. Yeah, so say it's in its 30s, yeah, maybe it's a little cold.
Speaker 1:It's a little cold, a little windy.
Speaker 2:So what's the average takeoff speed?
Speaker 1:Depending on the aircraft, but about 125, 150, some of that.
Speaker 2:Okay, so 150 miles an hour and you are taking the full breeze, dude. Okay, do you think at that point, maybe this wasn't a good idea?
Speaker 1:It's not a point where you could just jump off.
Speaker 2:I understand that, but you're not thinking this is a good idea.
Speaker 1:You could just jump off. I understand that. You know what I've changed my mind.
Speaker 2:Okay, so now you're taking off and you're looking at the ground and you're traveling now 200 miles an hour and you're seeing the treetops and the wheel stars come, and then that really the funny thing happens is the temperature starts to drop First of all.
Speaker 1:It's going to be dark in there, it's going to be. You're going to first. I don't know how you squeeze in there with the wheels. You know there's only so much room in those things. You know they're made to put the wheels in there. Right, right, not a wheel.
Speaker 2:And somebody else and gear the whole gear.
Speaker 1:Yeah, there's not like a jump seat inside that area.
Speaker 2:So and you're climbing from. You're coming from zero to 10,000 feet pretty quick.
Speaker 1:Super quick.
Speaker 2:Okay, so from eight to 10,000 feet, even if you're in good shape, oxygen starts going out. Oh yeah, Right, I mean you're basically it's less oxygen in your body.
Speaker 1:I mean once you get above 10,000 feet you have to get on oxygen period.
Speaker 2:You have to. This just got to be going through your head as you're in that wheel, well, and it's all dark in there, right? I don't think these people are that small, I know, but you can't breathe.
Speaker 1:I mean, I mean you're giving them too much benefit of doubt.
Speaker 2:I'm not, I'm really not I'm just kind of going over this for anybody that's paying attention that if you thought about doing this, this just gives you an idea what your future is going to look like. But anyway, so now you're climbing up out of 10 000 feet 10 to 16 you better hope you pass out they've got to be there to be.
Speaker 1:Hypoxia sits in.
Speaker 2:Because you're starting to drop below zero.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I mean your body temperature is going to drop. Hypoxia sits in. You're going to die pretty quick.
Speaker 2:Folks, do you know what the average temperature outside of an aircraft at 40,000 feet is Minus 60 degrees?
Speaker 1:Unsurvivable.
Speaker 2:Minus 60 degrees. So now you're up there with no oxygen.
Speaker 1:There's no Canadian goose jacket out there that's going to save you.
Speaker 2:There's nothing, nothing. I don't care what you got.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you don't need thermal long johns.
Speaker 2:Nothing, Whatever you grabbed a hold of your hand is now frozen.
Speaker 1:Yeah, mittens, nothing, nothing's going to save you there.
Speaker 2:So all the way out to Maui, you traveled probably what? Nine hours at minus 60?.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:You're frozen to whatever it is. It's no wonder you didn't fall out, because whatever you grabbed a hold on your hand was basically frozen to it.
Speaker 1:Yeah, that's why he fell out of the wheel.
Speaker 2:Well, when I read this, every time that I read something like this, it just blows my mind that someone would think about getting inside of a wheel of an aircraft and taking off like that. It's just crazy.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it's crazy.
Speaker 2:So if you're out there and if you thought that this was something that you would think about doing in the near future, this guy didn't make it.
Speaker 1:Yeah, this is not a good non-rubbing story. That is horrible. Yeah, I mean, there's there's cheap ways to fly, but this is not the cheapest. This is not the smart, cheap way they have discount carriers for their fun. They don't need that do not go to vago or do something. Do something with it, but don't try wheel. Well, yeah, that won't work. That's not a good job.
Speaker 2:But hey, we did. I'm only going to touch on this for a minute because I don't like talking about this that much, especially in our industry. But they did lose an aircraft this week and they lost some crew members and they lost some family members on an aircraft and we just wanted to say prayers to those crew members that their lives are lost and prayers to the people that had lost their lives in that terrible crash.
Speaker 1:Yeah, that disaster is a sobering moment in our industry, but we just want to wish everybody prayers and thoughts going out to all those people that have survived as well and the people that were the victim of the incident. But anyways, let's twist this to Christmas.
Speaker 2:Hey, there was a Christmas story I read. It happened in 2019. Thought it was so funny. Do you remember Home Alone? Yeah, what was the catchphrase? Kevin Kevin, kevin. What was the catchphrase Kevin Kevin, kevin?
Speaker 1:Yeah, when she realized that she you know where in the heck's Kevin.
Speaker 2:So there was this plane. They were taking off and the pilots radioed back to operations and they needed to turn the plane around. You know why? Why, is that the woman on board, the Arabic woman she had left her infant in the terminal Come on.
Speaker 1:First of all, you said infant, and how does that happen? I forgot I had a baby. I forgot the thing was hanging on for me for nine months and I'm just going to leave it in the airport now.
Speaker 2:Got my bag, got my suitcase. I was so distracted.
Speaker 1:What is?
Speaker 2:it that I'm missing?
Speaker 1:Yeah, I had my noise canceling headphones and I got my jacket.
Speaker 2:You closed your eyes to take a little nap.
Speaker 1:I had my neck pillow. Oh there's a baby. Oh baby, Damn, gotta go get him. Wait, wait, we're getting ready to take off. Nope, Ding, Ding, ding ding.
Speaker 2:Now they had to repeat this twice to the operations because these guys couldn't believe she left a baby in the terminal.
Speaker 1:I'm sure they had to repeat it many a time, could you?
Speaker 2:imagine the PAs going in the terminal. Anybody lose a baby. Right, there's a baby over here in a stroller.
Speaker 1:Yeah, that's crazy man. Well, first of all, the baby must have been totally chill, like asleep or whatever, before it didn't go unnoticed. Nobody in the terminal even noticed the baby sitting there.
Speaker 2:Well, I mean, who are they going to call? They don't know where this person is. Did anybody leave a baby out in the terminal?
Speaker 1:Yeah, not one good Samaritan. Well, if it had one, maybe they thought it was baby Jesus. They just left him there.
Speaker 2:I just thought that was so funny. I mean that Kevin story was an American story but an Arabic airline with that. I thought that was kind of funny.
Speaker 1:Yeah, that is funny On a Christmas.
Speaker 2:First of all, it's unbelievable that it could even happen, yeah, but you know something In our business there's so many things that crazy happen every single day, and I'm going to tell you one. So I've been doing the Fort Lauderdale flights, yeah, now you know a lot goes on in those flights, dude those Fort Lauderdale flights are just like I don't know.
Speaker 1:I'm not trying to slam Fort Lauderdale or anything, but we got a mixed bag of nuts on the things I mean there's just so many stories.
Speaker 2:You never know what you're going to get. You never know what's going to happen on those flights, because you got the cruise lines going down there. You got Miami, yeah.
Speaker 1:Lauderdale, lauderdale, east coast of Florida.
Speaker 2:You've got such a vast variety of people yeah you've got a freaking American nut mix. Okay, I'm going to give you a little scene here and give you an idea of what's going to happen. So this girl is up on her knees and I keep telling her she's got to sit down. She goes, I can't.
Speaker 1:I know what's happening here.
Speaker 2:All right. Any of the flight attendants that fly back and forth from Fort Lauderdale to Miami know there's a place in between. There they do Brazilian butt lifts, and all I can think about is all I want for Christmas is my two butt cheeks.
Speaker 1:All I want for Christmas is my two butt cheeks.
Speaker 2:So this girl, she could not sit down. I was thinking to myself you're going to spend the next two weeks at least right, not sitting your ass down.
Speaker 1:Dude, first of all, I mean just all the reasons behind this is like I just don't get it. I mean I'm not trying to body shame anybody, because you know I'm one to love a butt, but I mean don't go buy it. You know like you're good with what you got, but you know I started reading a little bit about this Real quick.
Speaker 2:we're just going to touch on it. Brazilian butt lift they harvest fat from the body. So if you ain't got fat, they can't harvest it from there. But anyway, that's how they do the Brazilian butt lift. They have the silicone implants and all I can think about is that you have two implants put in your ass.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:Now could you imagine, how bad that would hurt?
Speaker 1:I mean, Are they like memory foam?
Speaker 2:Like they mold you, I don't care, man Think about this, this we sat on a wall.
Speaker 1:Are there different models, like different sizes you can get for, like the, which, which, what?
Speaker 2:if it shifted hard soft kind of shifted left or shifted right. I mean, your ass would look like a mess.
Speaker 1:I'm sure there's a bad butt job, just like they're bad, oh my god I was just when I seen that.
Speaker 2:I started looking at this and I was like what, what happened if?
Speaker 1:one of them shifted. Yeah Well, we've seen what happens on the other side.
Speaker 2:It would not when it shifts. It would not be good. It would not be good. But anyway, she was on there and all I could think about was this is Christmas, two weeks and you ain't gonna be able to sit down. Oh man, that's Fort Lauderdale.
Speaker 1:That's Fort Lauderdale. That's Fort Lauderdale, man, you get that traffic a lot. I mean, I've been on planes where it was like the whole entire back row was nothing but like six women not sitting on their legs because they can't totally sit down.
Speaker 2:Sit down, yeah, there's butt lifts. But another thing happened. We had a computer glitch. Fortunately, we cannot go through a holiday season without one airline getting a computer glitch man you know, in this day and age it's hard for me to even fathom.
Speaker 1:Why hasn't the airlines yet figured out? You know our analog system. We used to have the little swipe cards and paper tickets and all that stuff. Why haven't they just put a system like that in place, like when the computers go down we go back to analog, but nobody knows how to do it anymore.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I couldn't even tell you this, sean. I think it's because we're so big. Now, I don't think that that'd be possible. We're so large, I know, but a plane's a plane.
Speaker 1:I mean, we used to do this all the time Like computers went down. Okay, all right, we're going to paper. They'd print out the whole list of the manifest, whatever, and check people off and on. You know like there's got to be a way around this. You know somebody want to get rich out there. Figure out a system to get around computer glitches.
Speaker 2:Here's the thing for passengers Look, it ain't your crew's fault, so don't come on there and start yelling at somebody because the damn computer failed. Our ass is sitting right there waiting with you guys, and our day got all jacked up too. So you know it's the holiday season. We're still in a good mood. Please don't come on the plane with a bad mood. We don't want to deal with that.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, especially when it's not our fault but it's our company's fault.
Speaker 2:Exactly. Whatever company it is, it's their fault. But hey, listen, let's talk about what we did. Let's talk about what we did. So we're transitioning into the new year, yeah, so everybody talks about, like, what they did this year and what they're going to do next year, right, yeah?
Speaker 1:What did we do? There's a lot to reflect upon, and the things that we do and didn't do in this last year.
Speaker 2:A couple things. Give me a couple things that you did in this past year.
Speaker 1:A couple things I did in this last year. Well, I wrote a few books, did my first art show. That was a cool one, because after I graduated I just last year graduated from college with a BA in fine arts and photography, anyways and I made my first photo book.
Speaker 2:He does have a really cool book on Barnes.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, yeah, and working on a couple more. But then I wrote a book this year Pickleball. Everybody knows about my Pickleball book, pickleball for everyone. Yeah, and then we have yeah, and then you know, I got inspired with doing all these books. I made two coloring books because my little nieces were like you know, they're enamored by all this. You know they're that age. So I was like I'm going to make a coloring book for them too, because I was just in this mode and right now I got a lot of time on my hands you ain't got no damn time.
Speaker 2:You're always doing something just like this. This number one thing that me and you did is we we actually started this podcast yeah, this is a long, this is a um.
Speaker 1:How long did we talk about this? I mean, how do you feel like year two?
Speaker 2:It's been at least a couple of years.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I mean it was. It was a long time in the making, like, and eventually it was like okay, let's shit or get off the pot.
Speaker 2:But it's kind of cool Cause you learn a lot. I mean when you from when we've learned how to one make this whole thing flow right, and Sean's not funny and yeah and Gary's still that asshole.
Speaker 1:Everybody out there understands what I'm talking about, but anyways, no, it's like this whole cool learning process. So we're like learning new stuff and you know we're trying to grow this whole thing bigger and better and all this stuff, and so we're going to move in this next year onto a next level too. That's what I think our future plans are. We're not putting any like dates on this, but you know we would like to move into a video and maybe into a live situation, but live live all the way live, oh man.
Speaker 1:I don't even know if anybody wants to see that, but who knows? You never know we can do.
Speaker 2:We started this far. We should go a little bit farther, but yeah, we did start the podcast. It definitely was out of our element a little bit, but we are having a good time with it. Now let's look at this Failures what was a big failure of yours?
Speaker 1:Failures- yeah, you have a failure. No, I'm going to let you go first. What's yours?
Speaker 2:Okay, so I was working on an engine and you know, you're sitting there and you tighten the bolt down and I'm tightening it down, tightening it down, and then I'm just like, okay, I better just get a little bit tighter because I don't want it to leak. And then snap, snap the damn thing right off. That's the worst. I looked at that damn thing. I'm like you dumbass.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you dumbass In an automotive situation when you snap off a bolt. I mean you got to tap that thing out. It's got to be bored out.
Speaker 2:It's just a pain in the ass. I mean, you just created two to three hours of a mess for you, more work, and all you have to do is reach in there and grab a torque wrench dumbass. That's what my dumbass did, and and you know something I can't even tell you how stupid I was and it, right next to the other part, is when you take a little bolt out and you're working over an engine, then your dumbass drops it down into the engine and it drops down into this little bitty hole that you can see it, but you can. Can't get the damn thing. Oh, man.
Speaker 1:That is where when you drop things, this is like the like and they fall into those little cracks and stuff is crazy. Here's a here's a here's a drop story Like this is totally off of what we're talking about. But I was on vacation with a buddy and we were out snorkeling and he my buddy doesn't like really greater swimmer and everything, so he's always kind of like keeping close to me and everything and his wedding ring came off his finger and fell down and you could see it like falling in the water and it goes down right between the crack in the coral. You could see it down there, but it was way down there. It's the same thing with that bolt. You know like it's the same thing with that bolt. You know like it's the same thing that happened, like it couldn't just land in the sand or land and open.
Speaker 2:Any woman out there that's listening to this right now. You have to know a situation where your husband or your boyfriend did the same dumbass thing that I did Is that you did something stupid. They start yelling and all you want to do is just close the door and go back inside.
Speaker 1:Yeah, like I'm done with this.
Speaker 2:Oh man, I tell you that was probably one of the biggest failures this year, because I did that and then, back-to-back, I dropped that stupid bolt through the engine and had to look at that dumb thing.
Speaker 1:Like failure, compound on failure, like you get smacked in the right cheek and you get smacked in the left Like, well, here's my, my, my failure this is my biggest failure of this year is that we freaking thought. You know, we're in a great financial situation. My wife and I were coming up on like we, we got to, we're planning retirement, all that good stuff. And then we got to thinking and we started we went on one of our timeshare. Uh, we own timeshares with Marriott and stuff. And you're a timeshare guy. Yeah, I didn't know that. Yeah, we, we, we, we own these timeshares and all this stuff. And so we, uh, we went out and bought another, fucking more timeshare.
Speaker 2:Oh my God, you're that guy that the customs guys get.
Speaker 1:Hey, Mr American guy, you come over here. You come over here. We got a deal for you. I know your face. You sucker, sucker, sucker, sucker, Come here.
Speaker 2:Every time I walk through and they're yelling at guys that come over, I'm thinking who are those guys? So I'm sitting across from one.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, no, this one was. We bought it. But the reason we bought it it wasn't quite that situation, it was because of the Florida mess that happened down there. This is a little bit serious Now. If you recall, remember that building that fell down in Florida, which one? There was an apartment building in Florida that fell down.
Speaker 2:They changed all the laws because of that.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, guess who got caught in those laws. Time shares Was that shares time, share people. So if you own a condo or a time share in florida, your rates are going to go skyrocketing. Your yearly rates is just exploding and right now there's no ceiling on it, like florida's right now just keeps pushing and every year the rates just keep going up and up and up. So like what I was paying for a time share for yearly, like if I was paying $300 for the year, $600 for the year, whatever it was, I mean now I was paying like $2,000 a year.
Speaker 2:Well, they rolled all the costs that was the new laws down in Florida. They rolled all the costs to the owners of all those condos and everything, because now they have to be inspected Exactly and they have to be inspected Exactly, and they have to be inspected and whatever needs to get fixed, it rolled into the cost. So now it's going to roll into you. Yeah, so I had some property, you American guy that got the condo.
Speaker 1:So I had two pieces of property in Florida that I owned that were deeded. That was part of that freaking stupid law that I didn't have no idea. And we were looking at our yearly bill and we're like, why is our rates going up so much? And anyways, long story short, we got sucked into buying more condo crap just to get out of that situation. So now I'm not in that.
Speaker 2:So if you're one of those condo guys, just email me later. I'll send you a picture of him when he comes to customs. Mr Condo Guy.
Speaker 1:Yeah man, those things.
Speaker 2:All right brother, here's a quick question for you Thinner or fatter?
Speaker 1:Dude, I think I've maintained this year, Did you? Yeah, just like it. Good, I don't think I'm like I didn't put on a lot of weight this year and I didn't gain any weight. I definitely didn't get skinnier.
Speaker 2:Let's be fair, though, you ain't exactly moving around very much. No, I'm not moving like I'm not like you're sprinting.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm not. There's not high exercise rate right happening right now.
Speaker 2:But uh, if you started sweating you'd have a fever yeah, well, yeah, I don't think anything.
Speaker 1:What about you?
Speaker 2:no, no, I'm right about where I normally am. I'm like between 208, 213,. Haven't really fluctuated much, so it's been a good year as far as that. I try to stay within that weight frame. I think this year, though, I'd be better, probably like 199, 100, 200.
Speaker 1:So your ideal weight is 199?.
Speaker 2:For me. I think I would feel a lot better. I just think you're more fit that way. So how tall are you? About 6'1" 6'1".
Speaker 1:So 6'1", 199. Yeah, man, that'd be like a. Yeah, Everybody would be a perfect person in that BMI.
Speaker 2:So we're not thinner, we're not fatter, so we're okay for the year. We got that one covered, Right, All right. So now we're going to talk about favorites. So mine's Yellowstone hands down.

Speaker 2:Okay, sean, what was yours?
Speaker 1:Okay, so uh, my you know big purchase was when we started the show, because I'm a big tech guy so I like all the tech stuff. So it was all the equipment we bought for the show, all the Rhodes equipment.
Speaker 2:And we do have some good equipment.
Speaker 1:So we went in and we definitely invested in our show. We bought the Rodecaster, which is what you guys hear this show through, and we bought all the boom mics and the boom arms and all that Rhodes equipment. Yeah, number one, top, top of the line stuff. So I mean, I can't tell anybody. We haven't had one problem with any of this equipment other than, um, uh, operational failure.
Speaker 2:That's Sean. That is, that is us actually doing half of a show and Sean forgetting to push the record button, which Sean is not allowed to push the record button anymore.
Speaker 1:Listen, listen. Uh, there is operator malfunctions every now and then. You won't know it on the show because we cut all that stuff out.
Speaker 2:We were 40 minutes into the show and you didn't push the record button.
Speaker 1:And it's not his responsibility to see that it wasn't recording too. He's half the show, people, anyways.
Speaker 2:All right guys. So going into the new year and we're going a little bit longer today, but that's okay. But going into the new year, let's talk about what do people in general? They talk about their New Year's resolutions, right?
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:I love this. I was looking this up and the number one thing, sean, for a New Year's resolution is after Christmas and starting the the new year. Guess what? The number one thing is financially financially. Oh, I was, I was getting ready to exercise, but no, we're gonna start financial financials yeah it's fine, so um paying debt bud budget budget, because you just spent load of shitload of money on christmas, oh hell yeah, right, yeah, you're trying to figure out way, how?
Speaker 1:how am I going to get through this whole thing? I was loving looking at this. A ton of debt. This last Spent all my money on it. All the people I love in my life.
Speaker 2:But when I was looking at this, I was loving this, because the next one after that is pay debt.
Speaker 1:Pay debt. Yep, this is a vicious cycle that we're talking about. The holiday season's come up and we're spending all this money and we're creating all these freaking. We think we have a budget to spend money and then we go over the budget and we get into debt.
Speaker 2:No, you just unwrapped all them damn electronic gifts and all that shit and you're sitting over there and you're like, oh yeah, I love that. Thank you very much, I love that. Now you're going to be like oh okay, you got to pay the debt. Yeah, now I got to pay for it, okay. So the next thing that you're going to do is that you're going to cut down spending. You know why you're cutting it down? Because you don't spend all your damn money.
Speaker 1:You don't have a choice.
Speaker 2:Your money's gone, you're going to cut your spending down. I love that one, and then you know what you're going to do after that financially. Your number four thing we're only doing the four on each one.
Speaker 1:I would not know what that is.
Speaker 2:You're going to save, sean, save what you ain't got no damn money left to save because you've got to pay your damn debt down.
Speaker 1:You've got to cut a budget. You ain't got no savings there ain't no savings to be had.
Speaker 2:Okay, so now you're going through your financials, and then the next thing that you're going to do is that you're going to be concerned about your health.
Speaker 1:Yeah, because you just had a heart attack. You saw all the bills that just came through. They just came, man the mailman just delivered all these bills Exactly.
Speaker 2:So the first thing you think of you. Better get that health care membership right, join that gym. Right, go to the no judgment zone. You're over there with the purple people, but anyway, so you get into the health club. So on the 1st through, like the 10th, health clubs are loaded right. Yeah, I mean, everybody's in a health club.
Speaker 1:Everybody's in there trying to do their New Year's resolution Get their blood pressure down.
Speaker 2:I'm going to get back healthy.
Speaker 1:I'm going to get back on the horse.
Speaker 2:Exactly, I'm cutting the budget, I'm cutting the calories.
Speaker 1:I'm focusing.
Speaker 2:I cut down on spending because now I'm only paying $10 a month off my gym membership Right.
Speaker 1:So the first month is probably a buck.
Speaker 2:I love this. Next one, though, is that they drink more water. You know why they drink more water? Because they've got no damn alcohol left.
Speaker 1:Yeah, the alcohol's been drank already during the holiday.
Speaker 2:You have to drink it all the way through the holidays. Okay, and then this is even good too. You're going to eat at home more.
Speaker 1:Yeah, because you have nothing but leftovers, you've got a bunch of damn leftovers, so that's all you're going to eat.
Speaker 2:Your spouse is like no, we're eating leftovers.
Speaker 1:Yeah, because you can't win, you don't have any budget for it. We got a 15-pound ham.
Speaker 2:We're getting honey-baked ham. We're having ham sandwiches for the next week, and the next week after that we're having ham and beans Exactly.
Speaker 1:Exactly.
Speaker 2:Oh my God. Then what we're going to do is that we're going to try a new sport. What sport would that be? Pick?
Speaker 1:a ball man. Pick a ball, pick a ball, it's cheap, cheap A paddle and a freaking plastic ball.
Speaker 2:Get your ass out there, because you ain't got no damn money, because you're paying debt, cutting down the spending and you're not saving anything.
Speaker 1:Right.
Speaker 2:All right, and then we're going to move. Of this one, oh yeah, now we got to get into the mental health Exactly Because we got to spend. What More quality time?
Speaker 1:Yeah Right, quality time, yeah, quality time. That's a great excuse, because we don't have any more damn money.
Speaker 2:Can't go out to the restaurant, can't go to the movies, can't afford it, can't do anything because we ain't got no damn money. So chalk it up to quality time. Just mark that off. Quality time we can sit and talk to each other.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I'm spending more time and it's because I want to.
Speaker 2:All right, this is a good one too. Hey, you get to meet new people.
Speaker 1:No, I'm good with that. No, no, no, I'm going to meet nobody. That's all right.
Speaker 2:All right, communicate Sean, communicate Do you know who you're going to communicate with with your spouse.
Speaker 1:I can just imagine.
Speaker 2:Who spent the damn money?
Speaker 1:Who spent all that damn money?
Speaker 2:Who got all the damn bills?
Speaker 1:man and how are we going to pay for this?
Speaker 2:Now, who has to budget? Who? Because I remember what I got and I see what you got.
Speaker 1:Yeah, there's going to be a lot of communication happening, a back and forth, give and take type of thing.
Speaker 2:And here's another one. You get to catch up with old friends. You know why you're catching up.
Speaker 1:Yeah, because you ain't got no damn money, it's cheap. Hey Sean, what are you doing?
Speaker 2:Get together and talk because we ain't got no damn money after this holiday season.
Speaker 1:Right, this is a vicious holiday cycle.
Speaker 2:Okay, so now we're through this whole thing and we paid off the debt, we've done all this, and then what are we going to do? We want to go travel.
Speaker 1:Yeah, we got to get away. We got to get away and we got to spend more money than we don't have. Yeah, we got to de-stress, spend more money.
Speaker 2:Because we didn't have any money to spend. We had debt, we had budget cutting down, spending saving, we exercised, drank water and we learned pickleball.
Speaker 1:There you go. And then by the time we get all out of this, which is three quarters away into the year, we're gearing up for the next year of holiday seasons that are getting ready to come right, Because we've got to start making those budgets. And how are we going to have this happen?
Speaker 2:Okay, before we get to the destination, what did you get for Christmas?
