Squabble Up: Life Lessons, Travel Stories, Alligator Canoes and Robot Mishaps
Leave us a message, or ask a question?
Have you ever wondered if college is really necessary for success? Or what happens when airline staff completely lose their cool on camera? Shawn and G tackle these questions and share wild workplace stories that'll make your job seem like a dream by comparison.
The conversation kicks off with local dangers on country roads before Shawn whisks us away to Charleston, South Carolina, where he discovered "booze pops" - the adult version of popsicles served alongside ice cream for kids. This leads to reflections on how airline culture has shifted, separating crews and diminishing the camaraderie that once defined the industry.
When the hosts dive into the viral video of gate agents verbally sparring with a customer in Raleigh-Durham, they don't hold back their criticism. "Customer service F...they get a total F," Shawn declares, sparking a discussion about de-escalation and professionalism in an age when everything gets recorded.
The episode's most thought-provoking segment challenges our educational priorities. "Fifty or more of the people that go to college shouldn't be there," G asserts, highlighting how trades like plumbing and welding offer six-figure incomes without student debt. The hosts lament how schools have eliminated shop classes, creating generations who can't handle basic home maintenance.
Shawn delivers the episode's most memorable moment during a time travel discussion, refusing to go to the past with a perfectly timed "I take my black ass back in time, I ain't gonna be happy." This blend of humor and social commentary exemplifies what makes Cabin Pressure unique - the ability to tackle serious topics while keeping you laughing.

Canoeing with alligators, killer robots, college or trade school. G asked if I could travel back in time. Where would I go? Listen to my answer. Next, on Cabin Pressure with Sean and G hey, everyone welcome. This is cabin pressure yeah, squalible up, squabble up, squabble up, squabble up, squabble up baby, what was that? This is a request going out to my mama.
Speaker 2:Squabble up, hey.
Speaker 1:first of all, you don't know Kendrick Lamar? No, he has a song called Squabble Up.
Speaker 2:Squabble Up, so that was like a personal shout out to mom.
Speaker 1:Yeah, she asked me. She was like she's funny man, she's always like looking forward to what you're going to do and she's like I got one for you, squabble Up.
Speaker 2:Well, there you go, mom. He's squabbling up. You squabbling up you freaking killed it. You're like what? Uh, anyway, man, hey, what's been going on. Oh man, you know, again up in ohio we're just getting through this whole rain area so I had to go out, cut the lawn.
Speaker 1:Man had to do it three freaking times man, the growth right now in the lawns, like as soon as they, as soon as you cut your lawn, I mean that thing grows like crazy it grows like a freaking.
Speaker 2:We're in like peak growing season right here yep, and it doesn't help when you you put the fertilizer on it, I mean, it grows like a weed, yeah. But you know this other thing too I was coming down, you know, fixler, and uh, bonita, yeah, just today I, I was uh heading to the a bad accident again up there.
Speaker 1:Dude, I almost got an accident too. That lady jumped out in front of me, coming over, I think I was uh heading over towards you and and, uh, I'm literally just coming down and you know how fixer you have the right away on that track and and slam on my brady skid.
Speaker 2:I was like sliding the car sideways, like I mean. But you know a lot of these country roads. I don't know where most of you guys live, but we're tucked away back in the country um off of the the main highway. But these old country roads, they have some of these, uh, blind hills and fixer is a blind hill going and benita crosses it. Man, we've had some bad accidents.
Speaker 1:Yeah, really bad. I really think they need to put in that intersection. There's a few in the area here that I like. When they have those lead-up flashing red stop signs, they do, they put one in. Oh, they did put one in.
Speaker 2:They put it in and then the stop sign just completely got destroyed. Put it in and then the, the stop sign just completely got destroyed from the. It was a. It was actually a panel van and a, a tahoe, one of the. I think the tahoe t-bone, the, the panel van, but you know that whole corner, they. They went in, they cleaned that, all that brush and everything out still doesn't matter, because when they come over, fixer is a blind hill and they're flying. You know these people that are not from this area, they're, they're going 55, 60, at least 60 miles an hour down these country roads and they don't realize right over the top of the hill is a intersection with a stop and if a car pulls out there's no way you're stopping, you're going to hit them yeah, I mean it is.
Speaker 1:We got some really bad intersections that are as as the population's growing here in our area and stuff that there's a lot of accidents. Same thing here in poe in uh in uh 57. You know it's like it's.
Speaker 2:It's terrible yeah, you, you really got to be careful, especially if you don't know where you're going. Really slow down, especially here in the country, because there's a lot of train tracks that that you know they, they drop off. There's a lot of uh they drop off. There's a lot of uh four way intersections. There's a lot of uh two ways and you're you got the straight through it, like on Fixler, and there's been so many accidents. I mean it's crazy how many accidents are at that that intersection. So really be careful out there. So what's going on with you?
Speaker 1:man, I'm back to work, doing the uh, doing the job again, job again. You know, uh testing the knee out and the whole thing, and uh just did my uh first layover in charleston and uh, charleston's, they had this uh truck in charleston. That was like so cool. I was like I've got to go. I didn't go to it but it was like right on the corner, right outside our hotel. It was called a booze, it was like the booze pop truck and it was like what is a booze pop? A booze pop truck? So what it was is this whole business where they had like a food truck and they had uh made these booze pops.
Speaker 1:So they got all these different like drinks and they're like in these giant otter pops, you know those like you know popsicle bags, hey, and so, uh, you get booze and you can get the boo pops in the, in these like otter pop things, and then they it's also ice cream trucks, so like little kids can go there too and buy their little you know ice cream sandwiches and all that. You know what normal stuff. But adults can also get all booze.
Speaker 2:So wait, a minute you got. You got an ice cream shop with a booze shop and everybody can go to.
Speaker 1:Everybody can go to and walk up and then they got music outside and everything. It's charleston. I mean, if you've been to charleston and I know you have, it's like uh only in the south man, you know it's got that south, southern vibe to it. The whole. Uh, charleston's cool. I mean I had never, like I'd never, been on a layover there actually until the other day, and you know I've been to South Carolina and all that stuff.
Speaker 2:But man walking around Charleston like I had never seen so many summer dresses in my life let me tell you something if we had a, if we had a base in North Carolina, my ass would be there tomorrow oh yeah, I mean that would be a very senior base, oh my god, I would be there tomorrow. Oh yeah, I mean that would be a very senior base. Oh my God, I would be there tomorrow. I love the Carolinas. I mean it's absolutely beautiful. The weather's beautiful all year long.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, yeah, I mean it was just. It was so nice to be just walking around and chilling and seeing the, seeing the sites and Charleston has so much food dude. So you know, I was in heaven. I mean like I couldn't pick just one place to go. There was like so many places that I was like I need to go here. I need to go here. This, these ribs look good. What'd you eat? So we went to this uh restaurant called pugans porch. It was this little house that uh, uh, we'd like stepped into and it had just some great like southern cooking. I had red fish, black and red fish it was. It was amazing it was someone's house. Yeah, it was like a little house, like it was like this like little house that they made into a restaurant. So you like walk into like these little hallways that go down, like those like uh, I don't know what you would call them like those little narrow, colonial, thin houses.
Speaker 2:You know I'm talking about in the south unit. There's a couple of them over here in ohio like that too.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, so like they had like a patio in the back and all this stuff and they had made it hold the downstairs main area was into a bar and stuff. It was cool. It was cool. So we ate in the bar and chilled out. And yeah, the other thing that happened on that trip too is that I had a first officer that had been flying for like two years and he had said this is the first time I'm actually going out with crew. I thought in two years, that's the first time. I mean, that's sad man.
Speaker 2:That's that just reflecting on my business like it's a reflection of what happened in the industry yeah, not of the business like when we started I was talking to these other crews about this.
Speaker 1:I was like when we started, I mean, uh, the company. Like when we started I was talking to these other crews about this. I was like when we started, I mean, the company that we were, we initially started with, we never separated from pilots and flight attendants. Nope, so we got like we had this cool culture where we like got to hang out Four days and you know, four days together and we got to lay over together and go out to dinner together and, like you know, talk about our lives and you know, like we got there was bonding on that stuff and you never had a thing.
Speaker 1:Where it is now, where, like these bigger corporations have like literally separated the crews pilots go one way, flight attendants go another way and we never get to talk to each other other than so we're only in our little uh groups, so we can't talk about shit, right, right, yeah, we can't like like, hey, give me, give me my your perspective on this, this, this thing right here. Like we were talking on a crew the other day about, uh, uh, the air bus. Like one of the procedures on the air bus just pisses flight attendants off and that's when they call back to the cabin, they only call back and only the lead. Can they call the lead?
Speaker 2:It's the most annoying freaking thing.
Speaker 2:It is the most annoying thing, I tell you. But you know something, they don't even just do it. Now, it's not just on the Airbus, sean. You get these. Some of these pilots are doing the same thing on the 7-3s. How are they doing that? Well, when they call back, they're checking on them, and then they want you to check in the back. And then you check to the back and the back tells you everything's okay and and you know, you have to wait till somebody gets on the phone. It they, it's this whole different mentality, it's just, it's bullshit but like on the air bus in particular it only ran on the wide it only rings to the front, I know.
Speaker 1:So you try to pick up to listen what's going on in the back and you get nothing, which is like the three. You can pick up and still listen right, whereas the airbus you can't do that and it's annoying as shit. I was like, so we just did. I flew that new uh neo um airbus. Yeah, that one's fun, dude talk about a giant pile of suck on a new plane.
Speaker 2:I can't stand that.
Speaker 1:Who, in their right mind, thought let's put doors in front of our cart doors. I'm like, why, why? Why is this Like? This is just an aesthetic. This is some jockey up in freaking a tower here in our business saying, oh yeah, this would be really neat. This will make the plane nice and pretty. It's as functional as a fucking like. It's horrible.
Speaker 2:That whole plane. I mean, you could go on and on about that plane, but you know, there's other things too is even Boeing Boeing, when they changed the coffee makers. What do you think about those new coffee makers, those?
Speaker 1:are shit Dude. We need a class on those son of a bitches. Those are freaking crap, man, like when you push the lights, you don't know which lights, when they're on, when they're off, not on, you don't know whether it's brewing, whether it's not brewing, and then whether the sensor's working and that sensor doesn't work.
Speaker 2:We were on a wide body and I'm not kidding you, man. We had one freaking coffee maker that was working. Yeah, One.
Speaker 1:On that Neo brand new plane we had two coffee makers making. I mean, it was so weird. And then what's the deal with, like an Airbus I'm just not an Airbus fan, but like some of the older Airbuses that we've gotten and stuff, like they have a switch, Like you can only use one coffee maker at a time.
Speaker 2:That's that one that was made in China. Yeah, that's that crap one.
Speaker 1:What are you talking about? Yeah, who comes up with this shit? Like, here's some advice for any airline executive that's out there If you want to know how to make a plane right and make your company like hum and work together and all that shit, ask a flight attendant, bring them in. Like, bring us in like the old company that we used to work for, that's what they did. They brought us in and we helped design the areas we worked in. Like we gave them some input and they followed that stuff because, like I mean that new neo, it's dangerous. Those doors are dangerous. You got to open the door, to open another door and you have to keep this other door and doesn't like lock back. It's just bullshit.
Speaker 2:So, anyways, man, uh, let's talk about what's happening okay, starting off, okay, you had to have seen that video with the, the agents and the way they were treating that guy in Raleigh-Durham.
Speaker 1:Dude. Let me tell you customer service fucking F, they get a total F. I mean, nobody in the world wants an employee to act like those two agents.
Speaker 2:Look what it did for the airline right there. I mean that went around the country. I mean that thing was crazy viral.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, and I'm not trying to stereotype anything, but, um, that was just a like ignorance beyond belief. I mean, you never, as a customer service agent, like, first of all, if you're gonna like that, that just like dictates what's happening in the world right now. Everything that happens, the first thing people do pull out their phone. If you're working for a company, you don't pull out your phone to record a customer. No, like that, that was like I was like what are they doing? Like this should have been only if the video should have only been from the customer's perspective, they could videotape you. Fine, you know like they're not supposed to do that too, but you know that's where it should be. Your behavior as a, as a customer service agent should never be like you're reacting to this and they had their phones out recording the customer, getting real like ghetto on them, like it was like I hated it.
Speaker 2:It should have been. It should have been simply this this exactly what you were saying is that it's his perspective and it should have been them diffusing. Basically, tell them what the policy of the company and understand that you're upset. Okay, I don't know exactly the whole situation. I know that he was late to getting there and explain to him the company's policy as far as checking in at that time and try to diffuse the situation. But man, oh man, that was just peeing kerosene on a fire.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, I mean, there was zero training there, you could see, of de-escalation, the agents were making it worse. The more they talked they kept just continuing to make it worse and worse.
Speaker 2:Well, it went from them and then it looked like there was a supervisor behind them. Right, okay, so the supervisor didn't step in until later parts of it and then she walked away and then you had another agent at the other end chiming in too, and it was like the whole group was just a bunch of negativity.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, it was bad.
Speaker 2:It was a bad situation, but I mean, yeah, it was bad. It was a bad situation, but I mean, talk about not get de-escalated, and this passenger is really irate. What do we do, Sean?
Speaker 1:Dude, we get somebody else to talk to him and then, if that, doesn't happen.
Speaker 2:We take him off the plane, right, but we do it in a way that we do not. We don't do anything other than de-escalate and we're not going to get into this big yelling match or arguing. We're just going to remove you from the plane and you're going to go on another plane with someone else and nobody else is going to have to listen to you the rest of the flight. But if it goes that far, but this situation, this was horrible. And what happened? They got fired.
Speaker 1:Oh, yeah, they got fired. They got fired oh yeah, they got fired.
Speaker 2:They got fired. So I mean, you know. So you did all this, you proved a point, you went viral and all you did was lose your job.
Speaker 1:I'm telling you right now nobody in customer service, in any industry, should ever, never, ever employ those two ladies.
Speaker 2:No.
Speaker 1:I mean it was like so blatantly wrong in so many levels, I mean geez, We'll. So it was so blatantly wrong and so many levels. I mean geez, we'll put an, we'll put it on our Facebook page Like, we'll put a link to it.
Speaker 2:I don't even think you have to shoot it.
Speaker 1:It's all over the country everywhere on viral right now. But um, yeah, just bad, bad, bad.
Speaker 2:All right, now I got one for you. What's that?
Speaker 1:Would you ever get in a canoe in a Florida lake knowing that there's alligators? Hell, no, I'm not going to be an alligator fritter snack, that's very damn sure. Like I mean no, no, no, no, no, no, I mean there's too many. I've seen so many incidents down in Florida without the canoe, like you can be on land and alligators are like coming running up to you and stuff you know.
Speaker 2:Like no, no, Okay. So you're going into this canoe and you're seeing alligators and nothing crossed your mind like bumping them rolling over. I mean, a canoe rolls anyway.
Speaker 1:Yeah, this is not Disney, where they got the alligators on the side like rawr rolling over. I mean a canoe rolls anyway. Yeah, this is not Disney where they got the alligators on the side like you know like these are real alligators that will snack on your ass.
Speaker 2:I mean I felt bad. I mean this what happened down in Florida. I felt bad for the woman. She had lost her life. But come on, I mean there's no way. Could you imagine you, you telling you, telling your wife, yeah, get in this canoe and we're gonna go across this lake and there's only it's only like like three or four feet of water? I mean that they were in right so the alligator's like I don't know, like eight inches from your side of the canoe?
Speaker 1:yeah, man, I mean, those things are so fast. It's like people don't realize like they're, they're just sitting around resting to do that quick jump.
Speaker 2:Death roll.
Speaker 1:Yeah, but they do that death roll too they snap on you and start rolling, doing that death roll. You're like you're done.
Speaker 2:And they got rolled right out of the canoe and then she ended up getting killed. That was unbelievable.
Speaker 1:Yeah, basically they're just drowning Whatever they catch. They're just trying to drown it, and that's why they did that roll and all that stuff. But it's like it is so crazy. I mean, this whole thing, this incident reminds me of that baby in Disney. You remember that? Yeah, oh yeah. Where like the alligator just jumped out of the pond and snacked on the baby.
Speaker 2:Well, when my parents they used to live down in Okeechobee, right there on the lake down there, and Dad used to take us out into the waterway and we'd be parked out in the hydrilla. Have you ever been on Okeechobee? No, okay. So you go through the locks and in the morning time it's pitch dark and you're coming out there with the boats and you're getting the boats and Dad's flying back through there and he turns all the lights off and he turns this big spotlight on. He goes hey, you want to see something really cool. I said, what's that? And he goes watch this. And he turns this spotlight on and for as far as you can see, sean, all you see is these fluorescent orange eyes on both sides, on both sides.
Speaker 2:Oh yeah, the reflection from their eyes, yeah, it was like it looked like a runway and you're right in the middle and you look backwards and it's as long the other way as it is there and he goes. There's gators everywhere. Yeah, you know what that little alleys are for gators, right?
Speaker 1:What are they?
Speaker 2:Yeah, so in the military terms that right, there is like a kill zone. Well, we go back in there. This was the best part, the first time I I went back there because we were fishing for crappie back then. But, um, we, we backed up to the hydrilla and it's that big weedy stuff coming out. Yeah, so I'm sitting there, I'm like looking around. You know, I mean you're looking for godzilla. Yeah, I mean you're. It's pitch dark, you can't see anything. Dad's got like a little light on. He's out there fishing like nothing. You know nothing's out there, you know. And all of a sudden you heard this thing like coming through. You know you could hear it moving through the hydrilla. And all of a sudden you heard this and then boom, boom and it's like running through this hydrilla and it's one of them damn gators going after like a bass or something. But shit, I about jumped out of that damn boat yeah, you know what.
Speaker 1:That's why you don't go in a canoe versus like an airboat. You know those airboats, they're like up like 10 feet off the water. There's a reason.
Speaker 2:Yeah, no gators.
Speaker 1:Because those guys have figured out that gators will come in, Like they will jump in, whatever you know. You got to have at least a chance to get away from them.
Speaker 2:Stay out of a canoe in the Lake Kissimmee. I'm telling you, don't do it. It's not worth it. Yeah, man.
Speaker 1:That's crazy stuff.
Speaker 2:But I had to tell you this one was for you, because you know you're all into tech. Did you see that little killer robot video? No, I have not seen Smith.
Speaker 1:Oh yeah, I love that movie man, so they, they had all those.
Speaker 2:Yeah, they had all those robots Right and they had this, uh, this Chinese guys and he was. He was um working with this robot and all of a sudden this robot went ape shit, man, it was like doing all these karate chops and everything is fine. It was the funniest video. Yeah, I surprised you didn't see it.
Speaker 2:No, I didn't, I didn't see it, man, you know did you just hear that long pause, sean, using the word work in the last, in the last week? Yeah, he goes, he goes to south carolina one time and I was like, yeah, man, I'm working exactly, I want to get something to eat. I'm working.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I know, man, you know that whole I robot thing and that dystopian view of you know like robots gonna take over the world and ai is gonna take care. You know like all that stuff like kind of contributes to the stuff, like people just like feed into that stuff and I'm sure that video, that robot going crazy, is just like some AI somebody is doing some funny stuff, whatever.
Speaker 2:But no, it wasn't. It was actually. They had it in a plant and they, they were doing the, the, the, you know how they from the computer when they put the feed into it and the robot just went apeshit. But I was sitting there thinking of that movie, that iRobot from there, and thinking about these eventually will be in some people's houses. Could you imagine that robot going apeshit and just destroying the inside of your house?
Speaker 1:Yeah, man, you know there's all this stuff where it's like you people are like thinking about all this crazy, you know negative views of what can happen with these robots and stuff, but that was a perfect video, man, of your house getting destroyed, right? Right, that's kind of like this. That was almost I can imagine. It was like like the video of like that deer that gets in that car.
Speaker 2:Oh yeah, remember, tommy boy, the video of like that deer that gets in that car.
Speaker 1:Oh yeah, remember tommy boy, remember tommy boy oh my god destroyed that freaking car exactly but you know, I could see this one day in your house.
Speaker 2:I'm gonna walk in here and there's gonna be some damn robot sitting right there and be like hey, gee, look what I got.
Speaker 1:Yeah it can happen. It can, it can.
Speaker 2:It'll happen in your house before it does mine yeah right, but hey, on a sad note, listen. There was a lacrosse player in Ohio, a young kid that was a sophomore in high school. He had a freak accident during the game and he was injured and he lost his life up here and it was really, really sad.
Speaker 2:Really sad, I mean you know I was reading about this and you know, a lot of our friends have kids that actually go to a lot of these schools and they were talking about this and how this young man lost his life and it was such a freak accident. And you know, Dalton, my son, played lacrosse, yeah, and he played at Albright University too, but it's one of those games that you know they cross football with hockey and you know these kids love it. But man, it was a freak accident, supposedly that you know, a kid had thrown the ball and the kid turned his head and at the wrong second it hit him in the back of the head, in the spinal area, and it caused a, a brain bleed. But you know it, it was so sad because you know, you see, all these kids and and we've we have a lot of flight attendants, unfortunately, that have lost their children, um, at at a young age- yeah mean I get it's a sad story when all these freak accidents it just reminds me.
Speaker 1:I get these like flashbacks because you know our experience of like going through this stuff and having flight attendants you know that have lost their children and stuff like that for various different reasons. It's just like it's just a sad situation, but there's these freak accidents. The good thing that comes out of this, I would hope, would be that you know the equipment and stuff to protect these kids when they're print. Playing will happen, you know like there is. They do wear helmets and stuff in those things, but the helmets don't come down past past their neck, right right. So maybe they need a flexible system with the helmet where we'll protect it.
Speaker 2:So like, cause those balls are traveling fast, dude at least some kind of a pad or something that extends that back. I think it'd be hard pressed having having a hard piece of equipment.
Speaker 1:But like a hinged piece. You know, something that's a flexible piece, even something that's like a pad or soft pad, like dampen that blow. If there was something to happen like that, that's comfortable enough to play in a lot of stuff. But you know, we got science, we could, we can do these things. But as far as, uh, the whole outcome, I mean, I can't tell you like I had a when I was in high school. There was a kid where he's playing football and you, you know, back in our day our goalposts used to have the two poles and it was just like a big H there. Right, most schools had that type of things.
Speaker 2:Right.
Speaker 1:And this kid, you know they're running a play and the kid literally runs right into the pole, killed them right there. It was like you're like wow, you know like how could this happen? How could this? Now they do these single pole goals right that are flexed way off the field, stuff like that. But all these different types of freak accidents and unfortunately it's kind of like the airlines, you know like we have accidents and we learn from these accidents and then we change whatever the systems are to like, improve those systems. I mean, like in our day, right, right, I mean it started off when we started flying there was smoking in the cabins and we didn't have fire retarded seats. Right now we have fire retarded seats, there's no smoking.
Speaker 2:You know like we live and learn, but unfortunately it takes lives to do that and that's terrible I think a lot of times when, um, especially when you uh lose a life, this young, it affects a lot of these kids differently, because I know whenever I was in high school I lost my best friend, danny, and me and him grew up since we were two years old and I was supposed to be in with him that night and he had gotten in a car accident because of drinking and driving. It cost him his life and I'll never forget that I've never drank and drive. I never will. I've made that promise to my mom years ago and I've kept that promise.
Speaker 2:It's one of these things that when these kids lose their life, for the parents it's time stand still and it's really sad. And that's all I could think about with this kid, really, when I started reading this was how time doesn't move forward, because with these parents, this young man, you know, 14 or 15 years old, it doesn't move forward. His friends move forward, they graduate, and then the parents see that, and then they move on to college and his parents see that, and then they see them on Facebook and they see that all of a sudden they get married or they have kids, but this young boy, his life doesn't move forward. So I was just sitting there thinking about this family and I felt really bad for them and my heart goes out to them and the young man that lost his life in this freak accident. And it was a freak accident, it was no one's fault, it was just something that was happening. It's really sad, but I feel for the families when their lives don't move forward. It just stays still, it just stays at that age.
Speaker 1:Yeah, thoughts and prayers to the families, for sure.
Speaker 2:All right, I got a question for you. What's that? Do you think these kids actually need to go to college?
Speaker 1:Need to go to college.
Speaker 2:Yeah, we had to switch it up a little bit. Do you think they need?
Speaker 1:to go to college. So here's my thoughts on this.
Speaker 2:No, I mean I'm so glad you said that I am so glad you said that.
Speaker 1:Well, I mean, here's the thing Like there's so many like our culture has been like this grooming like stage, like through our, through our lives, and you know this, this thing, us raising the kids and generation after generation, and gotten this thing where we're like, yeah, you know the to, you know grow and make enough money and all this stuff, that you should be going to college and you know college is a must and everything, and I think, like 50 or more of the people that go to college, they shouldn't be there.
Speaker 1:Like it's, like it's, it's a waste, like you're not. A lot of them don't use anything, they do nothing. First of all, they, they don't. It's a, it's a, um, definitely a colonial institute that we've instituted here in the world that was brought over from europe, that we've kind of like instilled into our culture. And it's terrible because, because of this drive to go to college and because America has gotten so rich and you know, like prosperous and all this stuff, you know, sending your kids to get to college is just a normal thing, right, like this is a progression of stuff, this is what we have to do, but now we've like literally weeded out all the trades, all the trades. Nobody's supporting the trades anymore and we need plumbers, we need carpenters, you know, we need all those things that this is exactly what I was talking about.
Speaker 2:I was reading this article and, um, and they were talking about exactly that. Sean, is that how the trades? The none of these kids do any of the trades anymore. And and some of the kids were laughing because, oh, you're going to be a plumber. Let me explain something to you. So you're laughing at that guy being a plumber and if you looked at him and he's got his belt on, he jumps out of his little van and stuff like that and you're like, oh, I'd never do that and would you look at him the same way? As you said that he owns that company and that company is worth $3 million, $4 million.
Speaker 1:Yeah, people don't get it Like the trades. Right now they can almost write their own ticket like do whatever they want to do. Because I mean you can start off as a freaking apprentice plumber right now and you can easily get very close to three digits in income, very close to three digits in income.
Speaker 2:Sean, you're going to come out. If you took welding classes in high school, you're going to come out $60,000, $70,000 a year as a welder.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:I mean, if you just went into the trade, you have no debt. You're getting trained in high school to do this. They don't have hardly any of these classes in high school anymore, do you remember? We always had that.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I was just about to say that I was like in high school. No, no, no, they don't do that anymore. When we went to school, I took welding, I took woodworking, I didn't take auto I should have, but auto was available All these trade things, the schools have totally gotten rid of them. And, Like, all these trade things, the schools have totally gotten rid of them. And it's so sad because, like here's a funny story Like my nephew he's just called, you know, recently graduated young, 20 year old guy, you know, and he's coming up but he's calling me for like basic stuff that you should know about your house.
Speaker 1:Like he's renting from a house and he doesn't know how to change the head on a shower. Like I'm like what you know, like this is what the generation right now we've, like you know, back to the original thought here, where we've groomed ourselves to think that going to college is going to fix everything and you're going to be rich and you're going to have a good life. And yeah, that is all possible most of the time. But there's so many people that don't need to go to college and even shouldn't be there and probably should be working a trade rather than spending the money and doing the college, you know, and they could be just as well off. You know, they don't even have to be the owner of the company. You don't have to be the plumber that owns the company.
Speaker 2:You'd be working for him, Make plenty of a good, good salary right, my nephew Dylan Sean, instead of going to college he went to a trade school and it was down in Florida. He was working on small engines for a couple years. Right, he's never been without a job. He has a beautiful home down in Florida, a beautiful family down in Florida, has a great income, and all because he went to a two-year school for small engines, learned that, came out, had a trade, didn't have debt, he came out and he had a job right when he came out and he's been employed ever since. He's never been without a job.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, I mean we really need to like. The world has to like. I think we're in like a readjustment stage right now in the world period here in the United States In fact I shouldn't say world, because we're only looking at it from a perspective of being American but in America right now we we are in adjustment stage. Like we have figured out, there's so much, so many of these jobs that are trade jobs and so many areas that we need Like. Right now we're in desperate need of farmers. Like farmers are that we need Like. Right now we're in desperate need of farmers. Like farmers are in desperate need. People don't realize there's going to be a food shortage here soon because we don't have enough farmers and we don't give them enough value. And farming is a very, very tough life, but if you've been born and raised a farmer, you know boom.
Speaker 2:Well, look what happens to all these farms, even around here, though they're selling them into developments. Yeah, I mean they're right now they're. They're becoming new, new developments in our area. All these small farms. I mean you go up there bonnie glenn is, is I mean look at the houses on that man they're.
Speaker 1:They're like starting off at like 1.2, 1.3 million in those things yeah, they're getting ready to put in like right around the corner, here, on corner here, less than a mile down the street, here they're putting in another 500 houses, I know, right down the street the other way too.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it's unbelievable. You guys think about a lot of areas of growth around here, but it's crazy. But anyway, you do not have to go to college, you don't have to be in big debt. But if you want a good life for yourself, man, there's so many trades operators. But you know, if you want a good life for yourself, man, there's so many trades Operators. Even those guys that drive those big-ass tractors on the interstate, man, they're making bank. Those guys are making big bucks, man, for driving those tractors. And you know a lot of those are air-conditioned cabs too, so you don't have to get out in the elements.
Speaker 1:So here's the thing If you're thinking about doing college and you're like this isn't for me, start looking at the trades, like there's so many cool trades out there. But I would give you one thing of advice, like the truck driver thing for me. Um no, I think those robots are getting ready to take over yeah, I wouldn't like they don't have a, they don't. There's not too much future in that. Yeah, um, but like for the plumber, I don't see a robot plumber coming in my house, you know, right, right yet plumbing.
Speaker 2:Plumbing has gotten really really high tech too, though very technical you know those that new, uh, all those new pressure lines. Man, you can just wave that or weave that um the the piping through anything now. Yeah, I mean that pex is in the pex, the pex climbing, yeah, oh yeah it's, it's, it's, uh it there's.
Speaker 1:There's good and bad, pro cons. You know, like it's so funny, like over our lifetime you started even talking about plumbing, like we started off when we were kids. It was all like copper oh, yeah and uh, sweating joints, yeah sweating joints and all that stuff, and it just moved from uh um pvc goes from the pvc and, and, and then now you go into the pecs yeah, packs and all that stuff I mean, but there was even iron before copper, oh yeah.
Speaker 1:So like my father-in-law's house that we had sold not too long ago, and like you could see that, like the all the different, you know, generations of plumbing technology, because it was all these different connections melding each one with one.
Speaker 2:And there was always somebody trying to add this to this to make it work.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2:It always leaked. I mean it leaked and you got some nasty-ass smell because somebody tried to put PVC over some iron thing.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it was so crazy. Oh, it'll work, go ahead.
Speaker 2:It just goes down, don't worry about it, it still comes in through the ceiling of your house.
Speaker 1:We need trades, we need people doing trades and people should be thinking about. Whatever trade you do go into, make sure that it's one that's going to last a long time, because technology, unfortunately, is taking over in certain things. I mean, you could see it like you know, in the auto factories, like factories aren't on the line anymore, they're operating the robots on the line.
Speaker 2:You're going to have a job, you know, but there's jobs, you're going to have a job, all right, listen, I had to ask you this one what's that? We haven't talked about this for a while, and get a little brief thing. What have you?
Speaker 1:been well.
Speaker 2:I haven't been working a lot lately and uh you guys can't, you can only see my face right now working a lot face of no dude.
Speaker 1:I'm gonna tell you there's some cool uh shows that I watch. One, uh, one big one. That latest one I watched was uh apple's dope's dope thief. Dope thief was cool.
Speaker 2:It was a while.
Speaker 1:Yeah, dope thief was. Uh, it's about these two cats that uh decide to pose a DA agents and they go in. Uh, robin, uh, dope dealers cats. You know these two guys two cats no, not a dog no not a dog and a cat. I'm going to try to get G up on his lingo here.
Speaker 2:But he said cats, two dudes, two cats.
Speaker 1:Now dudes is different. All right, so you got two dudes you said cats. I said cats, dude. People are laughing at you. You don't know what cats are.
Speaker 2:Cats are like from the what 60s 70s Between 60s 70s. Come on, man from the what 60s, 70s between 60s, 70s.
Speaker 1:Come on, man, you gotta pay up on your generational, all right, so two cats anyways. So these jokers get into doing this and, uh, they rob the wrong people. So it's it's a good show and it's crazy. That's a good one. But the latest one like we're talking about technology and stuff, which is my total jam show is black mirror. Have you watched black mirror?
Speaker 1:no, come on black mirror man, it was like black mirror is like the modern day, like twilight zone that's what I can compare to um, but it's all on technology. So everything that's in these shows, like each individual show, is like that single individual show, like check, like, uh, twilight zone was um, but each one talks about like these weird wild technology possibilities that are normally like these dystopian views of like what can go wrong with you know these technology and they got all kinds of stuff man like like killer robot.
Speaker 1:They got like robot robot killer bees. That'd be cool. No, I'm telling you, you got to check out the show. It is wild man. They got stuff that are wild.
Speaker 2:Killer, like drones and like it goes all kinds of crazy things. I knew you was going to have something for us to watch.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah. I mean, if you're into that type of thing, that's a really cool, some cool shows.
Speaker 2:Let's have a little fun on a rundown though. All right, let's do that, all right. Worst. I was asking a couple people on the planes, uh, this past week, and one of them you know Rob and um and I asked him what was the worst job you ever did. His response was he was uh, he was a shoe salesman for Thomas McCann.
Speaker 1:Oh, no, he wasn't.
Speaker 2:Yeah, he was Al Bundy. He was Al Bundy.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, you know what?
Speaker 2:he said I can see this too. He said his biggest thing is when the parents would bring these kids in. The kids never wanted to try shoes on. I don't want to try it on. I don't want to try it on. Kids never wanted to. You know, try shoes on. I don't want to try it on, I don't want to try it on. And he's over there with his little shoe horn and that little measuring thing. Remember they used to put your foot in there? Oh yeah.
Speaker 1:Step in the pose, slide the little foot, yeah.
Speaker 2:And then you put your foot in the shoe and he's like well, can you feel the toe? I can't feel it. I'm sitting here pushing down and he goes. You know, ow, it hurts, it hurts and he goes. I just want to kill this little kid.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I'm going to tell you right now that would be like a job in purgatory that I'd have. I never would be working with somebody else's freaking stock feet.
Speaker 1:You with feet, no feet dude period Especially if you want some sandals, got some nasty old toe jam. Hell, no, no, hell, no. All right, what's your worst job? Yeah, my worst job man is probably like um me, cleaning out the sewer lines for my aunt one time there was like cali out in california. They come through the sewers and they have these like robots that like clean, like flush the sewers, they can like scrape the things, but what they end up doing is like scraping down the sewers and they create these like huge giant oil logs and they clog up the drain pipes that are going from your house. So then all of a sudden, after a period of time and a number of flushes, certain things start coming back up and it just, it just so happened that I was busy in my aunt at the time and it just, it just so happened that I was visiting my aunt at the time and it ended up that, um, she was like, oh my god, I'm gonna have to get a plumber to do this.
Speaker 1:Blah, blah, mom, I want my flesh out. You know, line is, uh, is all clogged up. And they knew that everybody in this whole like when they do this in california it was like everybody in a block. It was like a plumber's dream, because everybody's gonna have this problem, unless you know how to clear it yourself. And so, yeah, man, I started digging into the line. I had to go in there and get that whole thing.
Speaker 2:That's nasty, nasty dude. That's nasty Because that's other people's poo-poo yeah man Other people's poo-poo.
Speaker 1:Working in other people's poo-poo is not a good thing, but that's why those plumbers make a ton of fucking money, right.
Speaker 2:Okay, me, dave and Bruce Dad had us go get water blasting qualified, right, it's water demolition. So he's like, oh, got you this great job. So we were sent out to the power plant in the middle of freaking nowhere, okay, and it was like, I don't know, we were supposed to work from midnight to eight in the morning. You know what they did, sean. They took us out to this damn hole in the ground and they had a big clam bucket over there and they had a foreman over there and we were dressed up like the Ghostbusters, because you had these big packs on, these water packs and you had like a water gun, but with a lot of power in that thing, right, and and they're like okay, what you're going to do is that we're going to lower you, lower you down by 80 feet and into this hole, and you guys are going to cut out the metal sickle around that, around this power plant, and then cut it up in pieces and then we're going to offload it in the morning time and you guys are just going to keep doing that.
Speaker 2:Yikes, did you just hear? I said 80 feet down. Yeah, so we're going. This is the stupidest thing we've ever done. So we lay it lower down in this bucket. And we got these little lamps on our heads that were like little miners, and we go down there and it's not bad enough that you have to walk through this water. That's probably about at knee height as you're walking through there. But then all of a sudden you start hearing these noises. You know what's down there, sean.
Speaker 2:Oh, dude, all kinds of critters River rats, river rats, them damn things were the size of cats. You probably didn't hear the snakes, oh my God. Well, I was more concerned with the river rats, so our job was two of us were cutting, one of us was basically hunting Yikes, killing them, basically hunting yikes, and killing them with the water blaster water blaster. Yeah, so we had to cut that sickle out and it worse, john, I mean the bottom line worse so.
Speaker 1:So here's. Here's my question, like I'm sure many of the listeners out there is thinking the same thing as me, is what those are like? Did your father love you?
Speaker 2:you know what was with dad? With dad was this Dad was in construction his whole life okay. And what he said was he was going to make sure that his sons never worked construction. He gave us the shittiest job, sean, I swear to God, have you ever heard of hod carrying no? Okay, so you had to carry these big ass. You know, when they used to build these big storage facilities, they used to use these big-ass cinder blocks.
Speaker 1:Oh yeah.
Speaker 2:So they would drop them off on the semis Right, and so you'd have to take these cinder blocks, carry them over to this Mason's pallet and then you'd have to hoist this shit back all the way up to the Mason's and then repeat all damn day long.
Speaker 1:No, okay.
Speaker 2:Now, that was one, and the other one is running 125 pound jackhammer all day. Oh no, so, how many kids, how many of his boys do you think ended up in labor? Zip Zero Zero he accomplished everything that he set out, because not one of us ended up in labor. We all ended up in different jobs because that's bullshit.
Speaker 1:You mean one, none of you. So like I love killing river rats, I love, I love killing myself.
Speaker 2:Basically, that's what it is, because I'm telling you, man dad gave us the shittiest jobs because he did not want us working in in labor at all and, like I said, that's why I'm a flight attendant.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:All right man, if you could travel back in time, where would you go? Whatever, all right man, if you could travel back in time.
Speaker 1:Where would you go? Whatever dude, I'd stay my ass right here. Really, there's no way I'm going back in time. I didn't ask you that, I know you didn't let me tell you if you could, I'm gonna tell you the reasons. If I could, you know I wouldn't. I'm in fun, listen to this, because this is all about perspective like you're talking about. Let's go back in time. You take your ass back in time. You're just fine. I take my black ass back in time I ain't gonna be happy.
Speaker 1:It ain't gonna be a fun situation, and so you gotta you gotta think about this in perspective. So so here's a, here's the thing like I take myself back to like colonial time, I'm dead. I take myself back into the 20s, I'm getting lynched, you know like no, no dude. So so I like right where I'm at right now, because the world really likes people you're killing me man I a little thing like an era thing and we're all you can't take.
Speaker 2:Go back here because they'll kill me, can't go back here, they'll kill me.
Speaker 1:You're fantasizing like this is, like you know, the land of the lost and stuff, and I'm gonna run around and I'll take you back to that one.
Speaker 2:That'd be funny. Yeah, how about the caveman times? What happened to you?
Speaker 1:then I'm freaking, I'm on the spit, all right that was pretty funny.
Speaker 2:That shit was funny. I like that. That was a good one. If I was going back I'd say I'd love to go back to the 50s.
Speaker 1:Yeah, the 50s. Yeah, I could see you. It was freaking like the slick back hair.
Speaker 2:It's not that bad.
Speaker 1:And the leather collar flipped up.
Speaker 2:Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, the James Dean, get on the motorcycle, on your motorcycle. Yeah, I can see you Run your ass down.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, dragging that black dude behind your bike, oh yeah.
Speaker 2:That was damn wrong, that was wrong, that was wrong, that was so wrong.
Speaker 1:No, I'm just telling you. It's all about perspective.
Speaker 2:No, the reason why I said the 50s was Elvis Presleyley.
Speaker 1:Elvis presley, yeah, oh yeah, man, I love elvis. Yeah, elvis was cool man. I mean like he was so cool because I love that. Like here's this dude that literally went into the world that nobody was going into at that time and that's like soul, southern music and stuff, and he took that shit and he made it his. You know like it was, like it was so good, you know like it was, and then it just brought that. That's where, like that was the beginning of our culture meld. Like people were starting to accept other cultures and stuff like that. Not that it's not to say that like there's people in the world that always, you know, got along with everybody, but there was a lot of like discrimination and well, yeah, but elvis had had a huge black influence.
Speaker 2:Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
Speaker 1:Like his money, his it came from church music.
Speaker 2:Black southern soul music right yeah, you ain't nothing about a hound dog man, it was like a soul song it's original.
Speaker 1:The original person that sang it was a black dude. That, um, I don't know his name right off the top of my head, but he, you know it was a black dude that, um, I don't know his name right off top my head, but he, you know it was a rhythm and blue song. So I sound a little bit better than that.
Speaker 2:But some of that you know. But, um, you know, the 50s definitely would have been mine. But you know, what I love about with me and you. I agree too. We can just make fun of all kinds of shit.
Speaker 1:Oh yeah, man I was just thinking that that was so funny.
Speaker 2:I mean we can't, we can't make fun of all kinds of shit, but I love that.
Speaker 1:All right, biggest pet peeve do I have to say it, freaking open toe shoes. Nobody in the world should be wearing open toe shoes as pretty as some of these little ladies think their feet are and stuff like that with their painted nails and stuff and blah blah. But the majority of people walking around open toe shoes is just about now funk, fungus nastiness.
Speaker 1:They look like cavemen mine's body funk man, but oh, I can't stand by I just had this dude on the plane man, it was like just that was my first flight back Like he was in the back of the cabin and the whole entire cabin. You could smell that like ammonia aroma. How could?
Speaker 2:you not smell that?
Speaker 1:I don't know, dude, you got to get up like people take showers, I mean body funk.
Speaker 2:That's like use deodorant.
Speaker 1:We got all kinds of technology to keep it down and, like, become acceptable in this world. You know, you don't have to be a caveman. All right, man, favorite concert you too, man, you too kemper yeah, kemper arena. Check this out. This is a crazy story.
Speaker 1:So when I was in college, back in, uh, I went to, you know, university of brassica, omaha, and, um, I, I was doing all these service jobs and stuff and it's kind of like between military and college and all this stuff. Anyways, I roomed with 18 women. Now, half of them were gay, that's immaterial, but there's 18 women in this sorority house. I was the guy, I was like the watchdog on the first floor, right, so we're listening to radio back then and this YouTube concert was happening and the tickets were sold out and nobody can get it. And all of a sudden on the radio they announced you know, we've got a bus of 50 tickets available and it's for the ride down and the ride back and your ticket and here's the price and it's first come, first serve whoever gets down to the station. Do you know that?
Speaker 1:No know, that house was like, there was women like running down the stairs and they're like did you hear the radio, did you hear it? Oh my God, I'm going. Like people were like running out of the house, running down the streets because we were like in the downtown area and we're running to the radio station to get our tickets, dude, but anyways, we get our tickets. They end up having five buses, dude. I was so freaking drunk by the time I got to kansas city because it was nothing but a party. We everybody brought coolers, it was everything, everything's going on in the bus I got. I'm surprised that I would actually remember the concert, but it was the joshua t concert and it was phenomenal. Man, I was like these guys are like gods, like it was just so good. I don't know if it was because I was like high or whatever, but it was like so good I did not see him in concert but I I have to agree that would be an awesome one.
Speaker 2:Yeah, what was yours? Uh, I have to say george michael, the faith tour man. He was unbelievable. That dude was, I don't care, that guy was incredible in concert. I mean he, he just was all over that stage. He was an entertainer. George Michael was just. I mean, yeah, you got to have faith, yeah, got to have faith. Yeah, faith, faith, faith.
Speaker 1:Like it is like I've never seen him.
Speaker 2:There's so many songs that came out of that one though. I mean, there's so many great songs that came out of that Father figure. I mean, there's so many things but Faith Concert, man, that was incredible. All right, here's one. If you were stuck on a desert island and you could have three things, what would they be? Three things, three things.
Speaker 1:Okay, I talked to the crews about this because we were all talking about this and one of these dudes yesterday he was like I need a cell phone signal. Okay, I was like, well, what about the cell phone? Good point, good point. There goes number two that was not me, you'd have to give up two things.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I was like this is not me. My three were this I want a knife, I want a spear gun and I want some type of water purification device. After that, I can make everything else A spear gun yeah, a spear gun, a knife and a water purification. Have you ever seen those? They call them some type of water straw that purifies Just a straw, doesn't it? Yeah, I mean, if you have all those three things right there, everything else, I can make shelter, I can do all that.
Speaker 2:In order to like, like you're thinking, survival. No, I didn't say survival. I said three things.
Speaker 1:I said I understand three things, and that was it right. So what are?
Speaker 2:your three things. I I would have had the machete right. All right, a flintstone for fire, all right right, and then then a woman that's really good looking, that doesn't ever age, all right.
Speaker 1:So you want company? Well, if I'm going to be stuck on a damn island, I mean it was bad it was so bad Company warm and he wants to eat.
Speaker 2:All right, I was talking to, I did draw you what you're talking about what was bad. I drew. Where is your mind?
Speaker 1:Yeah, okay.
Speaker 2:Hey, before we get into around the globe, did you see that Houston's intercontinental airport has Garrett's popcorn now?
Speaker 1:No, dude, but when you text me the other day about it, I was like what, that is unbelievable. Where's?
Speaker 2:it at Garrett's popcorn, I don't know. They said it was concourse c. I haven't. It's on concourse c, okay. So I mean, like they got you know abcd there or whatever, but it's like, uh, yeah, we were talking about how you know, with them, uh, expanding out. So yeah, that was that was incredible. But hey, let's go around the globe. Yeah, quickly, okay, did you see? How did? How does two wide bodies, aircrafts, clip wings, backing out one, backing out one's behind? How in the hell does that happen?
Speaker 1:Wingwalkers. It's a combination of a bunch of stupidness happening Because I mean, there's so many protocols with the pushing a plane back, especially in airports. You have wingwalkers, you get all that stuff and you know when you look out the window when they're doing the wingwalkers tell me how good they're paying attention, like it's like there's something. I'm not trying to slam anybody, but it only takes one wing and one guy to be out there just falling asleep, walking out, doing his job not really doing his job, just being there.
Speaker 2:How about the guy walking back? He can't see that there's a big-ass plane right behind them too, right, okay, so you've got three of them and then, and you got the guy on the tug that is actually pushing it back, and you can't see that there's a plane in the alley too.
Speaker 1:Two of them took out two planes this is how accidents happen, because all it takes is one of those people to fall asleep and then boom, clipping wings.
Speaker 2:Straight stupidity, yeah, alright. Guy runs down the jetway. He's late for the late for his flight, runs past the gate agent, gets down to the plane, the jetway still attached. He's beating on the side door. Do you open?
Speaker 1:hell. No, you know what I do. I give him a thumbs up you missed your flight that's exactly what I do.
Speaker 2:I'm not opening that door for you this guy was beating on the side of the airplane. The gate agent backed up was like hell. No, I had no idea. You know what?
Speaker 1:this because you know, but you can't back up because he'll fall off the jetway right, and you know, because nobody else can see us like in the plane or anything, because we were like at the door and stuff, you know I might stick my tongue out at him you, you start waving, you'll be like bye See you later You're out of here.
Speaker 2:Oh my God. Okay, first-class passenger wouldn't come out of the lavatory. He was repeatedly asked to come out. He wouldn't come out. They said, listen, you know you got to come out. And he said it's not coming out yet. And they're like, well, you have to come out of the lab. And he wouldn't come out and they say, well, then we're gonna unlock the door. Guess what he's doing, sean?
Speaker 2:smoking nope he was playing with himself, dude, come on, yep, there is just like so stupid okay, but when you, when you land, and you and the police meet the plane, okay, that's gonna be one to talk about in it.
Speaker 1:Yeah, man like it's all those people what in? And was this in in flight or was this uh? It was in flight and then they had the plane met he was doing a solo um, you know my high club with himself or something like you know like, come on, like he was running a solo, that was sure.
Speaker 2:But I mean he, he definitely, he definitely wasn't coming out of that lap until he was done, until they opened the door and unlocked it. So but you know we tell you all the time I mean in this industry we're gonna have stuff to talk about all the time. I mean we kind of hit on it this week, but you know there's a ton more. We had a lot to talk about with those gate agents I mean, and then these little crazy incidents that happen, but there's stuff that goes on every single day.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I mean yeah, we can keep going talking about this for another hour or so at least. But yeah. All right, let's get to the quote. So the quote man. I thought this quote was like uh, just right for the for everything here. A simple act of kindness can brighten someone's day, and what you put out into the world always comes back. And never underestimate the power of your goodness.
Speaker 2:And never lock yourself in the first class lavatory and do your business in there either.
Speaker 1:Yeah, that's only kindness to yourself.
Speaker 2:We want kindness to others. I'm sorry I had to say that. I just can't believe that guy did that. Anyway, listen guys. They had a great week. We had a lot of fun. Prayers go out to the lacrosse player and his family. Again, I feel completely horrible about that, but again, prayers go out to you guys. So, you guys take care of yourself. Had a great week, Sean. We will see you next week on Cab Impression. We're going to see you next week. See you guys. Wobble, wobble, wobble, wobble. Oh my God.
