Sky-High Absurdities
Talk to us! Leave us a message, or ask a question?
Shawn and G delve into the comedy of domestic life as they explore the universal struggle of marriage and decision-making. Shawn hilariously recounts his home renovation woes, where his meticulously researched plans keep evolving under his wife's scrutiny—with each change mysteriously inflating the budget. Their authentic back-and-forth captures the evolution from those early "whatever you want" relationship days to the reality of long-term partnership.
The conversation shifts to meaningful territory as G reflects on turning 59, offering surprisingly profound insights about aging. "Time is currency," he muses, noting how our perspective fundamentally changes when we recognize life's finite nature. The hosts share wisdom gained through experience: the futility of trying to change others, the liberating power of letting go, and finding unexpected joy in simple natural beauty. These reflections provide a thoughtful counterpoint to the show's characteristic humor.
Travel news brings the duo to the Burning Man festival, where 70,000 people recently gathered in the Nevada desert—paying up to $1,200 for the privilege of experiencing extreme conditions, dust storms, and the now-infamous "Orgy Dome." Their incredulous analysis of the festival's appeal showcases their talent for finding humor in cultural phenomena. Equally entertaining is their takedown of Frontier Airlines' proposal to eliminate jet bridges in favor of stair boarding, with the hosts drawing on their extensive airline experience to explain why this is spectacularly misguided ("The flight attendant at the front door is freaking frozen. They look like Jack Nicholson from The Shining!").
The episode rounds out with lottery fantasies, airport bathroom etiquette rants, and the bizarre story of Chuck E. Cheese getting arrested. Throughout it all, Shawn and G maintain their signature chemistry—finishing each other's thoughts, playfully challenging one another, and creating an atmosphere that makes listeners feel like they're simply hanging out with old friends, discussing life's absurdities over drinks.

What's worse pulling a nerve in your neck, being stuck in a six-hour flight with no working toilets, or walking into Burning man orgy dome thinking it's a Starbucks?
Speaker 2:Starbucks, at least the no-toilet flight gives you a bottle.
Speaker 1:The dome that's emotional trauma with foam on top and Frontier says stairboarding is the future, so I guess we all need hiking boots now. Gold medals. If you survive Cleveland in January, forget medals. I want a heated bus pass. And if you win $1.3 billion, what's the first thing you do?
Speaker 2:Easy. I'd buy an airline Just so I could personally throw people off if you clapped when you land.
Speaker 1:Yes, and finally, justice at 36,000 feet.
Speaker 2:Coming up Burning man, chaos, migraines that knock you flat and, yes, chuck E Cheese in handcuffs.

Speaker 2:Yeah, good luck what decisions first of all? What decisions you're talking about? Any decisions again, good luck like.
Speaker 1:I've been going through these projects. I've been talking about it. Last week I'm working on projects in the house, trying to get my house all queued up for the future and all that stuff, and every time I do it talk about one little project. All of a sudden I think I've got it researched and I got it all put together and I'm thinking, man, this is great, this is fantastic. She's going to really like this and all this stuff. And you walk in and you like, explain it to them and they're like you know, I don't like it. She doesn't say I don't like it. She's like can you change this? She didn't like it. Can you it? Can you change this about it? I didn't like it. She's like, like, like. Every time the changes now, this is my wife every time the change happens, for some reason, the price of the project continues to grow. I'm like why is the change get more expensive? Every time I'm like, getting your input in this like. I'm like can we just do this simple? Sometimes it's wild man.
Speaker 2:Okay now here's something that's funny. Go back to when you first met Right. She agreed with everything.
Speaker 1:Yeah Right, we were both very agreeable. Do you want to go out to eat here?
Speaker 2:Oh yeah, let's go to get a burger.
Speaker 1:Yeah, very agreeable.
Speaker 2:Yeah, to go here. Oh yeah, no problem, we'll stay out. Whatever, I'm good yeah.
Speaker 1:Right now. What do you think?
Speaker 2:about this. I don't like it. Yeah, I don't like it, it's no, not that good yeah.
Speaker 2:Yeah, you know, and it reminds me. I just seen a video it was actually funny, you were talking about that. Did you see that video of the guy they're out shopping and she's picking potatoes out and she's putting in the bag? He's videotaping this and and he is grabbing a potato out of her bag that she picked and he's like what do you think about this one? She's like, oh no, and puts it back and then he grabs out of her bag again and what do you think about this one? No, you can't pick them out dude, that's what happens.
Speaker 2:It doesn't matter, I mean as soon as that's what happens as soon as you spend a lot of time together, it doesn't matter. They're in that personal say.
Speaker 1:I don't like it yeah, I don't like it I want this right. So I mean, we're like I've been going on a week now, or more than a week, trying to like figure out this deck, and then she's changed through some like new things, like she'll see pictures and she's like oh, I like that idea let's do that too. I know I like that one too. Let's do that too. And I'm like sean, what't you?
Speaker 2:come up with these ideas, cha-ching, cha-ching.
Speaker 1:I'm like stop, stop, we got to just do it. Anyways, man, it was just my week and what's been happening and all this stuff. I didn't do any flying this week, so what's been?
Speaker 2:going on with you. I'm still imagining you shaking your head, going through you, with you. I'm still imagining you shaking your head going through you know when, when, you, when you do this and you have these projects and you have this list, and you're like oh yeah, I got it all set. All I got to do is just show her and then, all of a sudden, you start checking off. Nope, nope, nope.
Speaker 1:I want a new, like one another thing I'm like I want a new golf cart, like we, you know, we live in the golf cart community, so I want a new golf cart. So I'm thinking, okay, you know, I'm gonna I get.
Speaker 1:I got the bells and whistles here right. This is the coolest golf cart we went out test driving. She's like I don't like this. Nope, I don't like this, nope. You know what she didn't like the golf cart I picked out, like this new one. It was like totally loaded, all the bells and whistles, had lights in the ceiling, the color it's got the sound system. Nope, not the color dude, because I can get the collar right. We can get the whole cushion didn't feel right, no, not the cushion.
Speaker 1:Well, there was one piece on the cushion there was. It was a little bit too upright for her, the seat was, and then. But the biggest thing that was like the no seller, like we're not buying that card. It didn't have ball holders for the golf balls, so on to the next brand cha-ching. Yeah, that's what happens, man good luck.
Speaker 2:So what's what happened with you? I'm turning 59 man.
Speaker 1:When this podcast airs, I will be 59 years old 59 years old yeah, and it's like like I just see the gray getting grayer every like it's through this whole year, like your side of your head's getting grayer.
Speaker 2:You're moving into elderly ages and, as the sunlight is coming, casking off your, your gray, I can see it too.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah yeah, wait till you start getting those envelopes from aarp. I already got them right. Yeah, I'm not opening them, I already got it.
Speaker 2:I was. I was thinking about. I'm a true blue Virgo. What are you? I'm Gemini. Okay, true blue. I mean, I'm the most critical person about myself. Do you ever think about that with your Zodiac?
Speaker 1:Dude, I'm like, first of all I'm not a big Zodiac person, I mean, but I grew up like this is funny because my mom was a big Zodiac person and she was like, when we were growing up there was a lot. Remember getting a paper and like every day.
Speaker 2:Yeah, read your Zodiac.
Speaker 1:Yeah, let's read my Zodiac Maybe even die with it. What's going to happen to me today. And some newspaper, san Jose Bee, was telling us what was going to happen today.
Speaker 2:It's a day you better stay in, don't go outside. Wait a minute, it's sunny out. No, I'm not, I mean, it's just ironic that I mean a little bit about the Zodiac. I am really critical of myself, but you know, I was looking at this and I was thinking what's the difference? Because how old are you now?
Speaker 1:60. See, you're older, I am older and wiser. Oh, you forgot that part. I'm wiser too, nope.
Speaker 2:But I was thinking when you hit the 59, 60, I was thinking about how do I think now that I didn't think when I was younger and I realized is that time, time right?
Speaker 1:yeah, time is like currency oh, hell, yeah, you know, I mean that's, that's uh on your. It's like when you, when you hit that age, you start thinking. I'm starting to think and it's like, like what's the retainer of my time? Like how, what's the remainder of my?
Speaker 1:time that I got here like how much more time and like that's been coming up when these projects I'm doing, I'm doing the back deck right now and I'm like, uh, you know, the guy's coming down. He's like you know, oh yeah, these boards, they're warrantied for, uh, 25 years. And then he like comes out, oh yeah, and these are warrantied for 50, and I'm like I don't need that shit.
Speaker 2:Like I I'm not going to be around for 50 more years. This is the official age. That shit start going wrong.
Speaker 1:Right.
Speaker 2:Right, I mean when you're waking up, you're like damn, I'm past that age. I know, but you wake up and everything hurts, or? You're sore, you know, for a little bit longer than normal.
Speaker 1:Oh yeah.
Speaker 2:But you know, I was thinking about other things that changed in your head and this was funny. Now here's ironic.
Speaker 1:What's that?
Speaker 2:Trying to change a person, oh no, that rarely works, doesn't it? That never works. I've been trying to change your ass for how many years?
Speaker 1:Dude, it doesn't work. Does not work. We can influence each other to be uh, be swayed, to like think about things, but we didn't change what their the outcome probably is going to be right, you just have to accept them right, you just accept what it is like.
Speaker 1:You know, like I mean like this last year. You know all this politics and stuff happening like there's how many of our? You know all this politics and stuff happening Like there's how many of our friends. You know that don't see things our way, you know, and we just, you just either. You know this is it. Does that them Move on. Right, we agree to disagree, you move on.
Speaker 2:I don't like that. When they say they agree to disagree. It's kind of like an oxymoron we just disagree and that's okay. Though disagreeing, that's okay though it's okay, if you disagree, I'm fine with that right.
Speaker 1:But you're not okay with agreeing to disagree.
Speaker 2:No, I mean, I just disagree with the person, I don't agree with them. But it's okay that I don't agree with you and that's fine. But I'm not going to argue a point, because there's no sense in arguing, because they're not going to see the way we see it. I know, but that is what agree to disagree means. I understand that what it means.
Speaker 1:This is why I'm a year older and smarter.
Speaker 2:Do you see what I'm talking about, right? You can't change a person, you can't change them. No, no, no, no. But it's sad though it's sad, it's so sad that you know, especially in the politics of today, that people can't just have their own opinion.
Speaker 1:Well, people can have their own opinion. The problem is, is that like, uh, right now, because we, you know, the internet is really? I blame the internet, like because news and communication travels so fast in this day and age, like everything is exploited and, uh, you know, enhanced to out of control? Well, so like I mean when we were growing up, like the same things that are happened today, like in order for us to get the news, it could only come through either the TV or a printed newspaper which is a very slow method of you know communication, whereas now any Joe could be like tweet boom.
Speaker 1:here it is. You know, trump's dead Right.
Speaker 2:You know and you're like what you know, like a stupid.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it's just like. But anybody has that authority to pass on news right right now, because there's no control of who who can put it out there and who can't, because everybody has their say the sad fact, though, truly is that they really don't care, Sean.
Speaker 2:They really don't. I mean they'll yell whatever their belief, but they really don't care. They don't. I mean, you know, you can, you can we can argue.
Speaker 1:What do you mean by don't care?
Speaker 2:Well, you know a person that sits there and they'll say I don't like something, but as far as like something going on in the world, they really they don't even educate themselves on it. Yeah, but I mean, they don't care to the point to educate themselves and to actually know what's going on with it.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I agree there. So they don't care to take the time, energy and effort to educate themselves and see both sides of the story.
Speaker 2:Right and then make an educated decision.
Speaker 1:Right, yeah, like I'm in agreement that people need to let in. And when you get to that point, like if you don't agree with the way I see it, I'm cool with that too. Like at least you've done your homework, or at least you can like we both see that we've all both done our homework and we agree to you. Know, our opinions are our opinions right?
Speaker 2:Right, okay. Next one is letting go. This is a tough one for me.
Speaker 1:I'm not going to say too much. This is true.
Speaker 2:It is. It is. It's a tough one. No, I'm, if my wife is here right now.
Speaker 1:she'd like smack me upside the head. She's like you are the worst with that, like my biggest fault. I mean, I'm going to tell you right now my biggest fault, and it's hard to say because this is like something like you know one.
Speaker 1:I want to be forgiving, but it's hard to let go, like it's hard to not remember these hurts or you know, or the trauma of whatever is happening, and to just let it go and forgive. And my wife is always on me. You know you need to forgive people, you need to let it go, you need to keep going and dude it's hard. It's hard because I remember it. I don't care as much as it like you get in that certain situation, you still remember it like open up the toilet seat and not putting it down.
Speaker 2:Okay, well, you need to let go let it go.
Speaker 1:But no, there's certain things are more, a little bit heavier and more meaning. I know I just said throw it out there I'd throw that out there.
Speaker 2:But no, it's true, letting go is probably one of the hardest things to do, but they say it's the most powerful thing to let go, and I can understand it because it causes so much stress with yourself. If you don't and I do understand that, but it's one of the hardest things to do. The other thing I do not have. I love this one. I don't have to prove shit to anybody, no, and I'm sitting across the person Same person I haven't proved shit to in my whole life. You know, I don't have to prove anything to anybody anymore. I don't. I love that one.
Speaker 1:No, dude, you know what. Here's my thing. I don't have to prove anything to anybody, but you know what I do. Like like my wife would tell you like and many people that know me like I like praise, right.
Speaker 1:I like when people tell me that I did a good job. I like when people you know that's, that's me, that's um, it's ingrained in me, like I'm. I'm seeking that even, like when I go to, when I'm in school right now, like my instructors, they know that I'm seeking praise for what I'm doing, like I don't know what that is about me or whatever, but you know it's because I want to do good, right. I want to be the best person I can be.
Speaker 2:Well, you put so much into whatever you're doing I mean, I can attest to that Anything that I've ever seen you do you put a lot of time into it. So all it is is that you just wanted the acknowledgement of the time that you put into it.
Speaker 1:That's it.
Speaker 2:It's not like this huge. You don't ever look for this huge pat on the back.
Speaker 1:No, it's just an acknowledgement. I don't need medals, I don't need trophies.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it's just an acknowledgement to the time that you put into it and it's an appreciation. I into it and it's an appreciation. I know exactly where you're going with that and that's it. That's you, I mean, you're not looking for anything more than that. But here's the last one. And truly believe this is now. I love the simplicity and the beauty of a sunrise and sunset and I never did when I was younger, I mean never did. You knew the sun came up sunset. But now, when you're, you know, I look across the backyard and the dews on the grass and you're looking at the sun coming up. It's just absolutely gorgeous. There's nothing out there, no sounds, and it's just beautiful coming up.
Speaker 1:That's why I love my backyard, just because of that, like in the morning, like I can walk out of my uh, you know, my balcony here, my deck, and it is just so peaceful. It's ridiculous. And so I just, I mean I'm in total agreement with you Because one the artist in me is always like finding the beauty in it. You know, like I'm like I want to save that picture, like I want other people to see what I'm seeing, right? So you know, I, I totally get that difference of uh being 59 and being 21.
Speaker 2:And here's, here's, another difference.
Speaker 1:Well, here's another thing that I just wanted to point out before we move on to the next one is that that, um, you know, my uh attention to beauty was not in the um landscape. It was not in the landscape.
Speaker 2:It was more in the booty you had to throw something at some.
Speaker 1:Like I was a little focused in a little bit of other direction and finding beauty other places. So uh, yeah just saying that you just saying like this is I mean, you're talking about the part of what I just said is that you cannot change a person, right, there's no changing.
Speaker 2:Right said is that you cannot change a person, right. Right, there's no changing. Right, it shows that it ain't changing you. But here's the other one. Okay, and you know that you're getting old. Do you hate? When you like, pull a nerve in your neck, dude, that happened this week. Freaking cannot stand that.
Speaker 1:Welcome. Welcome to the population of nerve injury dude I am. I have been fighting this neck. Uh, I pinched a nerve in my neck like I went to a chiropractor and uh, they're like oh yeah, this is classic, you know, this happens, blah, blah, blah and they're like, you know, stretch and move, but it takes. It's kind of like that uh, here's another nerve that like plantar fasciitis I know how many 20 year olds have plantar fasciitis exactly.
Speaker 2:They're like oh, you got old feet. They're like what?
Speaker 1:what the fucking flashitis would. Is that a skin disease like it's like you get these like nerve problems that you get when you're old? And my neck I had that pinched nerve for a while where even when I was like I'd go places and I'm like I can only move my neck a certain thing. Moving it back, leaning it back and looking up, looking up at the stars, type of thing. That was painful. I was like I'm not doing that.
Speaker 2:See, this is when we're officially old, because we're old people talking about our pains, yeah, and the one thing I think is really funny about it is like you're like, you know the owl, you know how that owl kind of moves his head left.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:And then kind of moves his head. It doesn't go far, it just kind of. And then you know you're like Well, they can spin that sandwich around. I understand that they usually don't. They just like turn left a little bit turn right.
Speaker 2:Yeah, that shit was like all week is so annoying. I hated that. But then a friend of mine and I wanted to bring this up because it's debilitating is migraine headaches. When a person gets a migraine I used to suffer when I was a kid from migraines and they're the worst. They make you sick. I mean light sensitivity in your head, in your eyes. It's just debilitating and when you see a person go through a migraine you feel so bad for them because their face I mean you can see it on their face I mean their whole face just shuts down.
Speaker 1:Yeah, my sister used to get them when I was younger and I remember her she had to go room, like you know, like totally shut down all the sensories, to kind of get through it and stuff and getting sick and all that stuff, like yeah it's bad.
Speaker 2:I always travel with that Excedrin migraine. I have not gotten a migraine for years, thank God. But a lot of it's attested to, they say, stress and I believed that when I was younger. But there's different reasons that people get migraines. But that was a big reason but I always try to use that et cetera migraine. They have to use a lot of other medications. I think she has one that's prescribed for her migraine but completely debilitating man. I remember as a kid I used to have to throw up, make myself throw up to feel better. Is that crazy? I mean you just stick your finger down your throat to throw up just to feel better.
Speaker 1:That's bad.
Speaker 2:And that's the only way I'd start feeling better. I mean, I never understood why it did, but it made me feel better. But anyway, now that we went through the whole thing about the old people, the migraines and the nerve pain, Welcome.
Speaker 2:I'm going to tell you about a buddy of mine, ryan. He listens to the show and he was. He was telling me about a situation. He was on his birthday flight and he goes. I didn't really realize, when I fly, about things that happen on on airplanes. And then I sat next to one. He said that he was next to this 20-year-old woman who just pulled out her breasts and started feeding their four-month-old Wow fun and that's normal, it's.
Speaker 2:It's a normal thing. But you know, when you're, you're sitting there and you're flying and you're like sitting next to your seat, if don't you feel?
Speaker 1:awkward. Well, you know, here's my thing. Like I'm one for always to see a tit, okay, but you know, sometimes when you're on the plane and everybody doesn't want to see that tit especially some of the mom's tits are like like hanging really long you're gonna pay for this one.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it is what it is, but here's the thing.
Speaker 1:You know, like we have the population on the plane, that there's the moms that come over and they have the big blanket and all that stuff and they, they really go out of the way to protect themselves and the kid and the whole other thing and they do their business Right. And then you have the other moms that just have no cooth whatsoever and they're just like flop.
Speaker 2:Boom yeah.
Speaker 1:Here, suck on it. It's like, and everybody can see, and you're like well it's not appropriate.
Speaker 2:The thing is is that they just need to think of the person next to them and think of the person next to them and and it's a, it's a comfortable and I know because walking through the cabin I mean, how many times have we've walked through the cabin and seen a baby breastfeeding and you don't feel comfortable, right? I mean you're like turn away right away I mean you don't feel comfortable.
Speaker 1:I mean I'm gonna tell you like sometimes I'm like, can I have a sip?
Speaker 2:you don't change. I think I said you don't change, but I'm just saying I'm not.
Speaker 1:This is what goes through a male's mind when we're walking down the cabin. So you know, for those moms that are whooping out those tits, like you know be thinking about like other people, like everybody's gonna react different I'm turning my head away.
Speaker 2:I have no idea what this man's talking about. All right, but anyway. Yeah, the she had also had three daughters that were losing it on the flight, screaming and kicking and he goes this was my birthday flight.
Speaker 1:Yeah, man, yeah, really. Ryan experienced some life in-flight birth control.
Speaker 2:But that's what we talk about here. We talk about everything that happens on an airplane, and then when someone goes, they actually fly and they're sitting right next to what we experience all the time.
Speaker 1:Yeah, if he didn't like what he saw, he definitely doesn't want kids and family, because these are things that happen, right.
Speaker 2:Yeah, his are grown, they're all out. Yeah, they're all out. Yeah, but he experienced what we got to. So, yeah, hey, ryan, happy birthday.
Speaker 1:Belated Boom.
Speaker 2:Had to tell you about this. Have you heard of the?
Speaker 1:Burning man. Who hasn't heard of the Burning man? Of course I've heard of the Burning man.
Speaker 2:It's like all over the news right now too, you could have said it a little nicer.
Speaker 1:I know, but remember I'm the wiser one.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I don't think so. Well, they said that this is more of a social experiment and a cultural movement than a festival. You believe that? I mean reading about it. Do you believe that, then, dude?
Speaker 1:No, I don't believe everything I read.
Speaker 2:first of all, no, do you believe that though? Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
Speaker 1:It's like no like no, no no, this is just uh, this is a? Um bunch of people idiots getting together to have fun this is modern day, mad max man, yeah, mad max does this not look like you know mad max and thunderdome?
Speaker 2:do you remember when mel gibson did first, did mad max and um, it was a t Tina oh yeah, you're talking about the singer.
Speaker 1:Yeah, Tina Turner.
Speaker 2:She was that crazy person that led the group and Mad Max and Thunderdome. Yeah man, this is it.
Speaker 1:This is basically, somebody just went in and said let's go out to the desert and burn shit. Then we can do crazy shit Because nobody's out there to police us. We can do what we want to do.
Speaker 2:Right, it is, but they go out in the desert. If you guys haven't heard of the Burning man Festival, it takes place between August 24th to September 1st this year and it is in the Black Rock City, a city built in the Black Rock Desert in northern Nevada. Now this is 100 miles north of Reno Sean.
Speaker 1:Dude, it's out in the middle of nowhere. I mean, if you see the pictures of it, it's like literally a giant, nothing but flat desert. Can you say hot, hot, really hot, dude. It's got to be so stinky out there. I mean, just imagine, like there's no, like I I guess you know they would. They brought porta potties or whatever and all that stuff. Whoever organized this whole thing? Because there's freaking millions of people out there, but it's like it's got to be nasty and stinky. This year they drew 70 000 people, yeah, 70 000.
Speaker 2:you imagine 70 000 people driving their ass out to the desert. This year they drew 70,000 people yeah, 70,000. Can you imagine 70,000 people driving their ass out to the desert?
Speaker 1:No, that's just ridiculous.
Speaker 2:Now the whole purpose of Burning man, this event. They draw people from all around the world and what they do is they build this city out in the middle of the desert, okay, and then, after everything is all done, they leave without a trace. Their whole thing is to leave the desert exactly how they left it.
Speaker 1:Well, no, there's no way they're going to be able to do that, but they maybe try when you burn a big old freaking. You know we're getting into that All that stuff, you don't leave it.
Speaker 2:Okay, now you would think you're just driving out there and it wouldn't cost you anything. Wrong, you have to buy tickets, of course. Okay, they sell out quickly too. You know what the price of the tickets are these? No, they're between $575 and $1,200.
Speaker 1:Hell no, no, that ain't happening. I am not taking my ass to sweat in the desert and pay to do it. Come on.
Speaker 2:All right, we're still getting into this. So you're out there. You're going through the extreme heat of the desert Dust, storms, no shade, no water, no services. You pay $1,200. Plus, you've got to have a vehicle if you plan on driving out there. I don't know how you'd get out there if you didn't drive.
Speaker 1:Right Camel. That's one option.
Speaker 2:Now you're expected to be self-reliant. Right Pick up after yourself yourself, whatever your mom told you. You don't camp in the desert, right, all right. And the funny thing about this money they don't use money, they don't know what they use okay, matt, going back to mad max, remember, and mad max what they do. And mad max I don'tter.
Speaker 1:Oh, it's all, barters.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it's all barter Trading shit. Yeah, they trade. Now you wonder what they trade, because there's a lot of shit that goes on out there. Right, they're expected to. If you go out there, you can't go out there just to spectate. Now, what the hell do you go out and spectate?
Speaker 1:I Right into that Right into that.
Speaker 2:So you go out there. You have to contribute in some way, whether through art, you have to volunteer, keyword performance or helping others.
Speaker 1:Well, there you go, and again money's not used, so you're bartering.
Speaker 2:No buying or selling. The whole economy of this city is gifting or to barter. Now there are a few things that are sold coffee and tea. Now why would you do that?
Speaker 1:You have to barter everything else but you sell coffee and tea because Starbucks got to make a buck. Everybody, somebody is making a lot of money from this, obviously, and here was the way. Other question so, like I know you're explaining this whole thing, but it's like whose property is this? Who owns that property, that desert or whatever? Who's allowing this? Don't know.
Speaker 2:Yeah, but I do know the biggest attraction that blew down this year. What's that You're going to like? This one, what it's called the.
Speaker 1:Orgy Dome.
Speaker 2:The Orgy Dome. The Orgy Dome.
Speaker 1:All right Now. This is a huge attraction. Now you've got my attention.
Speaker 2:Do you see what I'm saying? I knew as soon as something came in, your attention would just jump. So the Orgy.
Speaker 1:Dome yeah.
Speaker 2:First, your attention would just jump yeah.
Speaker 1:So the orgy dome? Yeah, First of all, like so far, like everything you described, it's just like okay, this is a 2025 hippie fest.
Speaker 2:This is a modern day.
Speaker 1:Yeah, like, like this is the people, uh, you know, doing crazy, worshiping and all kinds of crazy shit and just going out being stupid.
Speaker 2:Right, I'm going to talk about the orgy dome a little bit. Even though it blew down this year and apparently they're rebuilding it, but it blew down this year. Now think about that, sean, an orgy dome. Now they're there for a week. Is it open during the daytime and the nighttime?
Speaker 1:Dude, there's so much things to think about here.
Speaker 2:They're open in the day and the nighttime.
Speaker 1:Dude, there's so much things to think about here. They're open in the day and the nighttime, so it's an OG dome.
Speaker 2:Is there bleachers inside like you can watch? You can't. You can actually watch, but you have to participate too.
Speaker 1:Participate.
Speaker 2:Yeah, and you can't go alone, you have to have a couple.
Speaker 1:Is this like do they have like rules, Like is there a tap-in policy, or something like that.
Speaker 2:Well, I was thinking more. Is there a waiting line?
Speaker 1:Yeah, Is there more men than women? Can you pick your group? Can you pick your sex?
Speaker 2:Is there a time limit? Is it like sometimes a full meal deal, or is it in an in and out burger?
Speaker 1:right is there a venereal clinic. Outside the door, on the exit are people tested?
Speaker 2:is it? Is that the reason why it's called burning man, or is it burning woman too?
Speaker 1:yeah, because when you leave there, you could probably have both yeah, yeah, whole whole type of whole different thing to scorched earth do they clean up after every session? Yeah, who knows man this is so crazy the burning man.
Speaker 2:I mean, when you got into this you start thinking it's okay, this big artsy thing, right, they're going out there for that damn orgy dome.
Speaker 1:Oh, hell yeah, there's every swinger in the world's heading. There it's a swinger fest.
Speaker 2:So the question is if we were younger?
Speaker 1:Yep.
Speaker 2:Oh, hell yeah.
Speaker 1:I'm just going there for investigative purposes.
Speaker 2:Renting the RV. We're on our way to the black.
Speaker 1:I'm just trying to pass on information and try to get the wisdom to the younger people coming behind me.
Speaker 2:All right, I had to ask that question. I already knew the answer, but I had to ask it question. I already knew the answer, but I had to ask right, all right, but something happened this year at the burning man.
Speaker 1:Oh yeah, there's a lot of shit that happened to burn man. What happened? One dude got killed, yep right lady had a baby out there. Can you imagine being out in the middle of the desert and then having a baby? I don't care like that's when you definitely need some communal support.
Speaker 2:Right, some people doing some good deeds so that would be on your birth certificate yeah place of birth burning man burning man yeah that'd be interesting yeah, that's crazy, man.
Speaker 1:But uh, and then there's a person that got electrocuted. That was crazy because there was a storm that came in and kind of like they had these dust storms and all these like monsoon rains and everything coming in, and I guess this guy was in a puddle that when the lightning hit he got literally electrocuted through the water. Wow, how crazy is that.
Speaker 2:Now you know what they do at the end of this Burning man, the whole premises of this they have this structure that they built it's actually what they call a structure of a man made out of wood and at the end of it they burn it.
Speaker 1:Yep, they burn that motherfucking down. It looks like pagan, it does.
Speaker 2:Right it looks like pagan. I mean it does look like Mad Max, though we had to talk about it this week because I thought it was very interesting when I was reading about it. They were talking about how it was the arts and everything like that, and I'm like, okay, let's look at it. Oh, bullshit, this is about the orgy dome. Yeah, you know, it's about the orgy dome. I mean, they're all going out there, it's like $1,200, and it's like you know, okay, I'm gonna be in here for the afternoon, the evening session.
Speaker 1:I'm just gonna make somebody out there who went to this needs to send us like is there rules or something like that, to like explain more about this orgy dome, because it that's uh I don't even know, like that's it sounds like a picture of the waiting list. It sounds fun and it sounds very dangerous, right, right, like all above, like it's who knows Bad yeah.
Speaker 2:But this other thing that we're going to talk about, Frontier Airlines. I love this little piece that they said that the CEO is trying to gear the practice of using stair boarding again instead of using jetways.
Speaker 1:That's stupid. That guy has never, ever experienced like a winter in Cleveland.
Speaker 2:Okay, but first he said the turn around time is a lot faster. You don't have to worry about certain things, about being at gates and stuff. They can just pull up. They run the air stairs up. They can get people off the plane and back on the plane. There's a lot of reasons of why, with the tarmacs, that your term times are faster.
Speaker 2:And he said the jet bridges are the kiss of death. Now let's just look at that History. With us flying All right Now. This guy, I guess, has never boarded an aircraft on the tarmac in Cleveland or Chicago in the middle of winter when a storm's coming through.
Speaker 1:Hell, no, dude, like. First of all, like you remember, I mean remember here in Cleveland when we had all those they were doing the construction to the terminal and all this stuff, and it was like a year we had to walk outside like monsoon rain, snowstorms.
Speaker 2:You have to follow those little sticks, like you have in your drive, because you can't tell where to walk.
Speaker 1:Yeah, exactly, they had people, those guys that were flagging in the plane. They were like waving you to the plane to walk there, Like this is stupid.
Speaker 2:The flight attendant at the front door is freaking frozen. They look like Jack Nicholson from the Shining oh yeah.
Speaker 1:It is utterly ridiculous.
Speaker 2:Okay, now that's just the wintertime. Now what's? A couple other places that would be a little colder.
Speaker 1:Dude, minot, north Dakota, anchorage, Alaska these are all good places. Frontier should literally fly to all these super cold places and be like, hey, we got a cool idea, let's walk outside to the plane.
Speaker 2:Yeah, a better idea. Let's just do that, and then we'll open the back door and let them cater and suck all the warm air out the back. Exactly, it'd be like an igloo inside that airplane.
Speaker 1:Yeah man, all right now.
Speaker 2:If you don't like that, no, let's go down to Cancun and wait for the hurricane season.
Speaker 1:Yeah, this is a very smart CEO.
Speaker 2:Yeah, sheeting water as the doors open and, within like two minutes, the galley's flooded. You can't leave. Why?
Speaker 1:Because it's going down into the bay I honestly think that he should be the one that, likes, launched this whole program and he should start it in, like you know, fargo I'm thinking you know how they bring the, you know how they bring people out in the buses in cancun.
Speaker 2:Yeah, on the tarmac. Yeah, okay, when you're you're out there, could you imagine being on the bus? Okay, you're sitting out there, you're dry, and you're standing on the bus and then, all of a sudden, these torrential rains are just sheeting, sheeting and they're like okay, go ahead and go yeah I'm not getting off the bus, dude this is a like they.
Speaker 1:This is so stupid. I mean the whole, the whole point of jet bridges and jetways and all that stuff, whatever you want to call it is is the convenience of not having to experience the elements before you get on the plane. Nobody wants to come in all soaking wet, nobody wants to be frozen, nobody wants to be sweating their asses off before they get on the plane like it's, like the whole point of it is like to do that modern convenience. You know what?
Speaker 2:rethink that I love talking about it because it's funny when you see that just shows, though, when you work airplanes and you've been in those scenarios, and then when you haven't been in those scenarios, you're sitting at a desk and you're like you know something. Hey, sean, this is a really good idea. We can turn the plane faster. Who cares that you freeze, that you get soaked? Who cares about you're dealing with the elements like lightning or anything? Forget that, just go ahead and go.
Speaker 1:Obviously this is just another CEO that's not concurring with the flight attendant population.
Speaker 2:Don't check with your crews.
Speaker 1:Yeah, don't listen to them, those frontline employees. They don't know what the hell they're talking about.
Speaker 2:It's a fun conversation, though I like it. We'll definitely be seeing if Frontier is going to the outside boarding stairs.
Speaker 1:Yeah, let's talk about something else nasty, dirty.
Speaker 2:Go ahead. Okay, I have to talk about this because this just happened to me this week. I cannot stand this when you guys go into a lavatory and you see this, or even a passenger, when you pull a tissue out of a spot, that tissue doesn't go back in the same spot that the clean tissue was.
Speaker 1:M are smart, m are not smart. That's all it is to it. Man, like this is my like pet peeve of the lavatory. Like I had this happen the other day instead of them putting it back into the slot that they pulled it out, guess where? They threw it? The floor, like literally, and then the next person did the same thing. Floor, like I'm like there's. There's signs and placards all over the laboratory. Like this is where you flush. It's illuminated. The button's like illuminated up, like either like everyone is blind or they're not that resourceful.
Speaker 2:Okay, but you got a toilet right there and you take this nasty tissue, just blew your nose and you stick it back where the clean ones were.
Speaker 1:Yeah, where should I put this? Where should I put this?
Speaker 2:Okay, okay. How about this one, though, when, when you're taking the um, you know the seat cover? Yeah and then they shove that shit right back in with the seat cover.
Speaker 1:Seat covers yeah, man, now who told you, that's where you put it? It's nasty dude that is so gross dude, it's the same thing that how many people on a plane go into the lavatory and they open the door and they just walk out because it looks like a filling station like they don't. They like the doors are going to be automatically closed behind them. Like some of our doors do slide back and close, but most of them, like you, open a door and they just leave the door open, like I'm like, do you not like close the fucking door, especially when they stunk it up?
Speaker 1:like, exactly like like that, that's my peeve. Like that's my peeve even at home, like when, hey, do your business? Turn on the fan, close the door, you know, don't, don't, don't not turn on a fan and just open the door and let everybody have some aroma. That's not my type of aromatherapy, they're just sharing.
Speaker 2:Right Sharing's caring.
Speaker 2:Oh, believe me, we smell enough shit in our career, right yeah, one more thing I'm going to talk about real quick and cover this Parents when you're traveling with kids, you guys travel with too much stuff. I know that your intentions are good, but trust me when I'm telling you just cover the things that you need for the kids to do stuff on the airplane, because you're making it hard for yourself. Really you're making it hard, for I mean, if mom's traveling by herself, she looks like a pack mule, and if dad's traveling with them, he's definitely the pack mule, but you're carrying all this stuff and you don't even use half of that shit.
Speaker 1:First of all, I don't have kids and I probably don't have any right saying this, but if you're bringing all that shit on and you think you need all that shit just to appease your kid, step back. Take a look at what you're doing. Are you doing this really right? Like, does the kid really need all that? Like, how many other kids in the world don't have any of that shit and they get by just fine?
Speaker 2:Right, but most of them carry their iPads anyway. They give their kid an iPad with headphones, just some snacks, a little couple things. Trust me, make it easier on yourself. The only reason I'm covering this because I see it all the time and you'll probably hear me touch on it again in another podcast but you guys are making it way too hard on yourselves. Quit being pack meals man and you know you don't even, you're not even carrying your own shit. You're just carrying all the shit that you're, you're, uh, you got for your kids, yeah, you know what I would like to see, like the ipads disappear too.
Speaker 1:Like, like, pull out a coloring book that won't happen, freaking. Pull out a little action figure that you're playing with on, like I love when you see the kids that you know, you see the families, that they're there doing art or you know drawing or coloring or they're doing they're playing with their little small figurines and you know being kids, like being uh creative, you know doing all that stuff instead of, like you know, oh, you know, put on the boob tube, basically, and mesmerize them.
Speaker 2:You mean they're engaging, you're actually able to talk to them. They don't have their headphones on right so yeah, yeah just think about it all right, hey, question for you what's that? What would you do if you won 1.3 billion dollars? Whatever the fuck I want to do it's coming up, man Dude, I am going to go, just like I wouldn't go apeshit, like just crazy spending.
Speaker 1:I'd do some spending for sure, like to start off the whole thing because you know he can't spend that money in a lifetime. Like there's so much, that's so much money, it's crazy. But you know, just to start off not having money, like that type of money and being in that spectrum, be like, wow, I can do all kinds of fun stuff I know exactly what I'm gonna do. What's that you're gonna save and not spending?
Speaker 2:I am so gonna show you how to retire. I swear to god, then, what I'm gonna do is to do is I'm going to buy a couple houses in the island, somewhere in the Caribbean. I'm going to have you retire me, you, dave and Bruce, we're going to run some flatboat thing for these people that come in from the cruise lines. Right, right, right, just for something to do. I mean, you know what I mean Entertain ourselves at the cruise line.
Speaker 1:Right, right, right, just for something to do. I mean, you know what I mean Entertain ourselves at the cruise line.
Speaker 2:I'm going to get you one of those Jamaican wigs.
Speaker 1:Dude, I won't. I'll just grow the shit Like I'll be getting my Rasta.
Speaker 2:Me and you would be in cargo pants for the rest of our lives.
Speaker 1:Dude, no Flip flops. Cargo shorts for the restaurant. I'm sorry, cargo shorts.
Speaker 2:You're right, cargo shorts. Got a little ahead of myself.
Speaker 1:Right, I don't want sweaty asses $1.3 billion, though Could you imagine?
Speaker 2:There was a person Remember the last one out in California. The guy was bitching Sean, he had won like a billion dollars and he was bitching because the state of California takes like 50%.
Speaker 1:Dude, they're going to take the taxes are going to happen, it doesn't matter. Yeah, I had that conversation with my wife here. We were talking about retirement, all this stuff, and I'm I'm like you know, we're looking at our accounts and everything. And she's I'm like you know, when we draw this, we're going to, we're going to pay some taxes on this. Like I think it's like 20% in the. Why do I have to do that? I'm like this because you put it in there pre-tax, like nobody got anything from it.
Speaker 1:They they're gonna get their money, so just they're just wait, just understand like this chunk that you see, like take 20 off of that, that's what you get, that you don't get that whole fund. And so she was like really struggling with that, and I was like I go, well, there's the, you know, so we have both. You know, like we have the pre-tax and the post-tax fund and the post-tax and they don't take anything right, because you're already paid. But, um, she's like we need to do more post-tax. I'm like it doesn't matter, you're gonna what are you doing?
Speaker 2:now or later you're gonna pay the damn thing right, it's crazy 1.3 billion I'm gonna show your ass how to retire, did you buy tickets?
Speaker 1:Oh yeah, you buy a ticket.
Speaker 2:I'm still here. I am still sitting right here, so I lost, just like you. Yeah, okay, I didn't win One of the things I would do is.
Speaker 1:I would build us a, a like a studio, like an office we would go to or as a whole studio, like I'd do that shit up.
Speaker 2:Like the next podcast would sound like something like this hey you guys. G didn't show up today. G didn't show up. I've been texting him ever since these numbers came out and I don't know where in the fuck he is yeah. I think it would be more like this Ladies and gentlemen, a news report just came out.
Speaker 1:G is on the Caribbean island and he's not coming back.
Speaker 2:And you know that I won because the airline just heard that I quit. Yeah, dude, they had a flight attendant years ago in Las Vegas I think I told you this, but she called in rich.
Speaker 1:Called in rich.
Speaker 2:Yeah, she hit a big jackpot. I think it was like $6 million Called in rich. She didn't call in sick, she called in big jackpot. I think it was like $6 million Called in rich, she didn't call in sick, she called in rich.
Speaker 1:Yeah, that's what I'm going to do, dude. That'd be awesome, man. There's so much fun stuff to do. There's good things I do with my money. I would donate and stuff like that. And at the same time, I would be like, just like you're saying, I would go get that house. And at the same time, I would be like you know, just like you're saying, like I would do go get that house, like I would have a few houses and people taking care of those houses, because I don't want to do all that stuff anymore. And you know, you got the money to hire people to do it, right.
Speaker 2:Me and you would go golf. We'd be on the first tee getting ready to tee off. You'd be like you know, gee, you came out. Wait a minute, you won, you won, you won, didn't you, you won.
Speaker 1:The only reason your ass is out here is because you won.
Speaker 2:I've never seen your ass. You're gonna tell me on the 18th hole your ass won and then we would see happy gilmore exactly all right, guys look at, hey, good luck whoever? Whoever gets a 1.3 billion. Good luck, yeah, good luck it's gonna be, you know it's.
Speaker 1:It's. There's like those shows that show like when the people that hit the jackpots and all this stuff and how it changed their lives, and some of them like succeed and some of them fail too, like they like believe it or not. There's some that just spend it all unbelievable, like how can you spend that much money? But um, yeah, stupid.
Speaker 2:Stupidity.
Speaker 1:Stupidity yeah, you need to make your money, keep making money and it's generational at that time Like it can be passed on and continue to be passed on.
Speaker 2:So if you win the 1.3 billion, that's a good luck. You know it's a bad luck. What's that when you show up at the gate and you're two minutes late, there's nobody at the gate. You you're like oh my God, I'm trying to make my flight, I'm a first-class passenger, I got to check my clubs in there's nobody at the gate. He takes a picture, he sends it out to social media and then a gate agent walks out of the back with a donut and a cup of coffee, that's not good.
Speaker 2:Excuse me, can I help you? That's not good. Yeah, I've got to check it for my flight. Yeah, hold on, let me see. Let me see um. Yeah, you missed that by two minutes yeah, yeah, yeah you got it, missed it by two minutes. Well, I wouldn't have missed it if you were back there eating dunkin donuts, right, right dude, that's so ridiculous I'm sorry, I love that story.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you know it's, it's uh. First of all, I don't like you need to show up. You need to show up on time for your flights. Like I hate this last minute stuff still made a funny story but it does make a funny story.
Speaker 2:But the dunkin donuts with the coffee.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it's kind of like what he gets man, he wouldn't even encounter that donut-eating agent.
Speaker 2:It's like that lost luggage person. That person in baggage claim, you know, starts their morning off, gets a donut cup of coffee. First person walks in when the hell is my bag? Yep, yeah.
Speaker 1:Well, we've routed it through Tahiti. It's on its way to narita and I think by next week you might have it. I love these stories, they're so funny. Crazy man.
Speaker 2:Chicago harris international airport has officially begun construction no, yeah, like they need more planes going in there.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, I guess they're doing building a concourse d right 1.3 billion dollar project yeah, 19 new gates 19 new gates. Uh yeah, they're gonna be designed for narrow body aircraft I wonder how much the airlines are funding that.
Speaker 2:That's like 8.5 billion dollars. Yeah, they're going to be designed for narrow-body aircraft. I wonder how much the airlines are funding that. That's like $8.5 billion.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I'd like to know how much their percentage is right. Right yeah, whose gates are, though? That's the interesting question, like what airline is doing that?
Speaker 2:Is it going to be domestic or international?
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, but I mean you know what Chicago needs more bigger airport. I mean you've been in the airport.
Speaker 2:It's like newark right, it's like newark though concourse. You'll get a burger over in c concourse. It'd be like 16 dollars.
Speaker 1:You go to a and it's like 27 yeah, and even with in like a concourse is like so big now and wide and everything and and it still fills up. It's huge, it's crazy, it is huge. Yeah, the airports, I mean we're growing and expanding so fast. I mean the airports can't keep up with it.
Speaker 2:I wonder if that's going to cause any delays.
Speaker 1:A little bit, a little bit.
Speaker 2:Just for a few years, a little bit.
Speaker 1:Yeah, there might be some more shootings in that airport.
Speaker 2:Who knows? Hey, how about that flight where it went on for six hours and the toilets went out, and guess what kind of plane it was?
Speaker 1:A non-toilet plane 737.
Speaker 2:Max 737. Oh, oh, the Max is having problems.
Speaker 1:The Max is a joke. No way In the industry.
Speaker 2:It's a joke because in any max, the first thing you walk in, the coffee makers don't work. Yeah Right, that's a standard, it's a standard joke, Dude.
Speaker 1:that is like the worst engineered feature of a max is the stupid new coffee makers.
Speaker 2:Beyond dumb.
Speaker 1:Beyond dumb and it's like all of them are always written up. I don't know. They've got to engineer something new. It's stupid, because having 200 people on a flight and then nobody has coffee in the morning I mean that's a good solution to excellent customer service.
Speaker 2:But these guys went on a six-hour flight. They went with two bathrooms. There's no way, yeah. And then the bathrooms stopped. No way. The passengers were told that they could relieve themselves in a bottle.
Speaker 1:Ugh, that's nasty.
Speaker 2:So you go in there with your what, your Coke bottle.
Speaker 1:Yeah, first of all, we don't have all those little like. It's not like we're getting like these little you know bottles you see at like the convenience store or something Like all we got is like bulk bottles.
Speaker 2:So it would be communal. Yeah, I'm sorry, that's nasty, that is gross, that's so nasty.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I mean kid grief, who would? I guess you got to do what you got to do. I mean, in that situation they must not have had a place to land, right? So they were in the six-hour flight that they couldn't land, so they had to have been going over one of the oceans or something like that.
Speaker 2:I'm just picturing the flight attendant standing at the door going excuse me, what am I supposed to do?
Speaker 1:and she hands an empty bottle. Um, when you get done, could you just wipe the lid? We have to give it to the next person. Yeah, no, you're just leaving in a lab and just you know. Tell us when it's full, we'll get you a new one it's a reason don't leave with two toilets on a long flight too.
Speaker 1:That's nasty. Anyways, there's a, you know, the first freaking plane now just got that secondary barrier, talking about seven 37s and it's first ones flying now and you know, I think that's. You know, what do you think about? The that like like extra security, what do you think about?
Speaker 2:any extra security on the aircraft Just because of what happened in 9-11 is good period.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:I mean it's safety of flight. I mean that's why we're here. We're always here for safety. I mean we joke a lot about all this stuff, but the reason why we're here is safety of flight, so people can get from point A to point B safely. And unfortunately we've got some bad people out there in the world and if we can stop them from ever getting to the cockpit and a little bit more security does that, then let's do it.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it's a long time coming. I mean, I'm so happy I wish the all the airlines would like speed this up and actually do it. And like not wait to this deadline, Cause one deadline's already passed and they extended it.
Speaker 2:And like you know, come on.
Speaker 1:All these airlines out there talking about oh we are, safeties are number one thing and blah, blah, blah. All that bullshit you know like. Prove it Like do this do these things that are safe, like to make us safe, like first.
Speaker 2:Yeah, you guys are out there. You're going to see it now, and that's the future.
Speaker 1:Yeah, see it now and that's the future. Yeah, yeah, don't make us do. Jet bridges outside first no you know that's not that cool anyhow. What about the new policy of um? The one of the new? The discount airlines are now changing the whole game on plus size passengers, you know that's gonna be.
Speaker 2:That's gonna be a tough one. I mean, I I understand. Did you hear what?
Speaker 1:they did no, so this is what they did. And so you know, like our, like you know our airline, that we work for. You know, if you're a plus size passenger, you need to buy another seat. You know, and I think they give it a half price discount or whatever, so you have to be accommodated. But this airline decided, hey, we're starting a whole new policy and what we're doing is we're going to make you do that, exactly that which all the other airlines are doing. Right, but if the door closes and there's a seat empty on the plane, they're going to refund your ticket price of that half seat because there's empty seats. So now they're saying, okay, we have the space, we'll accommodate it, but if it's a full flight and we can't accommodate, you're going to have to pay for that seat well, that's kind of cool, well, it is.
Speaker 2:But but the thing is, is that, are you? Well, no, that's that. No, you're right, that is because it's going to be empty anyway. They're going to make sure yeah, because if you already paid for it. They're just going to refund it. That's nice, yeah yeah.
Speaker 1:So I like you're doing it and you're doing. I think that's a good approach to this whole problem. Like you know, plus size people there you know they need to be accommodated, just like all the other people out there, and you know I think it should be go along with the American disabilities act too. Like you know, there are people out there that are plus size, that you know they can't help it.
Speaker 2:No, that's the thing too, is they can't? You always look at a person and you just assume Don't ever assume.
Speaker 1:No.
Speaker 2:Because sometimes that person, they can't help it and they don't want to be that way. It's uncomfortable for them, but no, I think it's a great idea.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I think I would advocate for this to change with all the airlines. All of them should adopt this policy. Door closes, you buy the ticket up front, you have your plus size, boom, I'm going to get on the plane. I need to go to my destination too. But if the door closes and there's empty seats and they could have accommodated you through those empty seats, refund the ticket Totally cool.
Speaker 2:I agree with that. Yeah, that's a cool thing, Yep.
Speaker 1:So, anyways, the last thing we want to talk about is the despicableness of chucky cheese getting arrested how does chucky cheese get? Arrested dude. I guess this dude was like um, he was doing some credit card fraud, like he was, he was stealing credit cards and stuff, so the the police did you see the video on this?
Speaker 1:No, yeah, so the police like walked into Chuck E Cheese and, you know, walked over to him you can see the body cam images on the thing and he's like, excuse me, hold up right here. And he like grabs Chuck E Cheese and he's like you know, don't try to resist, don't try to resist, don't make a scene in here, resist, don't try to resist, don't make a scene in here. And so then they put, you know, chuck E Cheese in handcuffs and they walk them out, and a mom as they're leaving and she's yelling. She's like I can't believe you're doing this in front of the kids. Would you lock up Mickey Mouse?
Speaker 2:yeah, stealing damn credit cards.
Speaker 1:I'm gonna lock his ass up too.
Speaker 2:It's kind of messed up, see, kids. That's why you don't go against the police and you do things you're supposed to Look. Chuck E Cheese even got his ass arrested.
Speaker 1:I think it was a good learning episode at Chuck E Cheese that day. Like, don't break, you know, no one's above the law, even Chuck E Cheese no.
Speaker 2:Your ass is going to jail Right. The cheese is on you. That was good Dan.
Speaker 1:Oh my God, All right.
