Doo Doo Duty Limits And Other Airline Chaos

Doodoo Limitations

One badly pronounced airline term is all it takes to send this episode completely off the rails. What begins as a serious explanation of pilot and flight attendant duty limitations quickly becomes “doodoo limitations”—and, naturally, we never recover.

First, we follow up on the passenger accused of slapping a flight attendant and facing serious federal consequences. That leads to an important reminder: keep your hands to yourself on an airplane. We also talk about how dramatically workplace boundaries have changed during our careers—and how even a seemingly innocent galley conversation can turn into a major problem.

Then G raids Shawn’s backyard for plants, discovers that carrying dirt uphill is apparently an extreme sport after a certain age, and uncovers some questionable stories involving flowers, deer and a few unfortunate Ohio rabbits.

Back in the aviation world, we explain why a flight can taxi all the way to the runway and still return to the gate because the pilots have reached their legal duty limit. We break down the difference between pilot and flight attendant legalities, why one minute can matter and why the crew cannot simply “make an exception” because everyone wants to get home.

We also react to an incredible educator teaching children how to behave on an airplane, discuss the value of volunteering, reflect on devastating earthquake footage from the Philippines and revisit Shawn’s early travel memories of Manila—including jeepneys, waterways, poverty, generosity and a red-light-district story that probably deserves its own episode.

From there, we meet a passenger who snores through the airport, the entire flight and nearly his own destination; Shawn unexpectedly reunites with a flight attendant classmate after 36 years; and one unforgettable New York couple turns a simple meal order into a full theatrical production.

Add in international food adventures, traveler’s diarrhea, fresh eel, an Aldi ahi-tuna discovery, two very different viral college baseball moments and a Japanese airline scandal that resulted in executive pay cuts and thousands of flight attendants losing their layover drinking privileges.

It is aviation education, questionable food choices, passenger chaos and completely unnecessary backyard confessions—all pressurized into one episode.

Welcome aboard Cabin Pressure with Shawn & G.

Cold Open And Button Duty

Shawn 0:00

I'm just laughing because I get to push the button today. See, a lot of people don't even know that you're the button pusher and I got to push the button today. I'm always pushing buttons. I know you are. That's all you do is push buttons. Shit, we're gonna do a follow-up. We're gonna do a follow-up of a flight, and then we're gonna get into the back of your yard and me cleaning the shit up in the back of your yard that that guy with $4,000 wanted to do. You say you're cleaning it up? No, I did. No, you know I did. Shit, I cut a lot of that shit out. Don't even sit there and say that. But no, we're gonna get we're gonna get back to that, dude. We're getting back to that. All right.

Passenger Charged For Touching Crew

Shawn 0:48

The follow-up. Do you remember that flight that diverted and the flight attendant got smacked on the rear end by by a passenger? Yeah. Okay, so the follow-up was they just charged this guy in federal co court for interference with a crew member's duty. Damn. What's his punishment?

G 1:08

He's looking at 20 years. Whoa. 20 years. You know, I'm thinking that would be like an appropriate, like, I think you had this progressive judge out there. You know this fucking like slapping contest. Yeah. Get one of those motherfuckers and be like, yeah.

Shawn 1:25

I mean, they're I mean, it wasn't even like he he got a pr uh um a fine and and got bailed out. Yeah. They're holding his ass over. So now for slapping her on the rear end, he's going, he's gonna face 20 years. Now, could you imagine going to prison for 20 years and and they ask you why you in here? Think about that.

G 1:51

Somebody's gonna be slapping his ass for the next 20 years.

Shawn 1:54

What you in here for?

G 1:55

Uh I I slapped a flight attendant. No, I was Oh, you in the slapping flight attendant. Exactly. I was slapping somebody's back saying we're gonna slap some shit boy.

Shawn 2:05

You're in here for the wrong thing, man.

G 2:08

Or the right thing. Yeah, we're gonna we're gonna teach you a lesson. You don't slap people. We slap people.

Shawn 2:13

Ain't no slapping going on here. No, I thought you'd get a kick out of that one.

G 2:17

Right, hell yeah. Shoot, but that's so messed up, man. Like people, I you shouldn't be touching flight attendants. No touchy touchy of the nice flight attendant. And you shouldn't be fucking slapping, yeah, like slapping a girl on the ass. I mean, I gotta tell you a story. This is hilarious. So we're my wife and her sister are very similar in size and shape, and from behind, and back in the day, especially, you couldn't tell them apart, right? So we were going to like Cedar Point, and my sister-in-law goes to climb into the car, and I think it's Carol, and she like bends over, and I take this big ass hand here. Bam! I mean, and she like lurches forward, you know, and she's like, I'm not Carol.

Shawn 3:14

I'm like, oh Daddy, can I have another?

SPEAKER_02 3:21

You had that moment, and she's but how she did it the whole thing was like, I'm not Carol.

Shawn 3:28

Ow. And that moment in your gut, it just sank, right?

G 3:34

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I took a whole handful. I was like, oh bam. You like and she like her, like you know, one cheek I put it in my whole hand. Yep. Don't touch the flight attendants.

Workplace Boundaries And The Sushi Trap

Shawn 3:55

These are the things that we do. Don't touch the flight attendants. Don't slaughter. That's like the biggest pet peeve. Even in the work, I'm still laughing at you just laughing her ass. Um, but in the work in our in our work environment, we don't touch each other at all. Even even in conversation.

G 4:09

No.

Shawn 4:10

And for passengers, I mean, this is a this is a big heads up because this could be you. You you touch the wrong person, and next thing you know, you're accused of something.

G 4:19

Dude, our environment right now is so changed from when we started. Like when we started flight attendants, like it was it was anything goes. You could say anything, you could do anything, like it was just there was no sexual harassment back then.

SPEAKER_02 4:33

Yeah, and now, dude, I mean, you have to watch yourself. Someone just got fired. Yeah, you're gonna you won't believe what they got fired over.

G 4:41

They were having a conversation in the galley and they're going to a destination. And this dude, he's an Asian dude. Yeah, he looks at this new hire light attendant and is like, you know, um, so do you like sushi? She turned him in. You're like, what? She turned him in. Because I guess asking a girl if they like sushi is like, do you like to eat what? Right. Are you serious? And so they fired a dude. That makes no sense. Exactly. Like, like sushi is supposed to be the connotation to pussy, right? So it's like, you're like, what? I'm like, are you kidding me? The context of the conversation, and it's he said, she said, you know.

Shawn 5:32

I mean, I can understand in the galley if if if someone's having inappropriate conversation. Absolutely. I can understand right, right, right. I mean, sometimes you know, people people get a little bit out of sorts and you're like, it was like a history or lead up to it. Right, right. And we're like reel it in. Right, right, we're not going to be able to do that. I mean, we're gonna be the first to reel it in because we're like, hey, listen, because anybody that's been on those planes for any length of time, any of us, knows minimum, right, minimum, six rows up. Yeah, right? Yeah, yeah. I mean, you can hear you can hear you can hear people's voices six rows up. Right. You can hear mine all over the place. You can hear yours about 15 exit row, possibly. Right. And the way that you go through with headsets, 20.

G 6:12

Easily. There's no make sure they can they can see me, hear me. Exactly. They're like, what the hell is that? And if you I see you with your headphones on or something, I just get louder. Tune in.

Shawn 6:25

That's you. Just tune in. No, but seriously, that I mean, you know, it's exactly right, but they have inappropriate conversations and they get in trouble for that.

G 6:34

Yeah.

Shawn 6:35

But touching a crew member is off limits. Definitely, definitely, definitely don't do

Backyard Plant Haul And Cramps

Shawn 6:41

it. Now, now I'm gonna tell you about coming over to your house and cleaning out all your damn plants off the back. You're traumatized. Oh shit. Dude, let me check.

G 6:49

You got some free plants.

Shawn 6:51

I did, but I was I was dying. I you you know, I started realizing my age, though. No, I did. I started realizing my age. So I told you I was going down there, I was cleaning these damn things out, putting them in a laundry basket, carrying them up that frickin' hill. Now, dude, you got a hill like this.

G 7:07

Transplanting my plants from my backyard to his house, and then Because you're gonna kill him. Yeah, you don't re you don't realize like my house, like I have a walkout basement, so I have these like inclines. Two of them both both sides of the there's this it's a nice little hill.

Shawn 7:24

Nice little hill. It's an incline. Now, now add that you're carrying like 40 to 50 pounds of dirt. Dude, I've with the I've lived here for 26 years. I've been doing this, but I I was climbing up there and I kept going in and out of the car, in and out of the car. And dude, your neighbors were all looking at me. Yeah, they were looking at me, and I was like, Oh, please just come over and ask me what I'm doing.

G 7:45

We're in high alert neighborhood watching.

Shawn 7:46

No, ask me what I one of them asked me what I was doing. Yeah, they're like, Do you know Sean and Carol? Uh nope. I was gonna go, nope. But man, they got some overgrowing uh perennials back there. I was just I I thought it'd just take some starters. Yeah. I heard he's doing some work and I was just gonna take some. Exactly. I start digging all your shit out, and they'll be like, uh, police are coming. You're right. Right? Oh, they wouldn't.

G 8:11

This neighborhood wouldn't tell you the police is coming. You would just see a bit roll up.

Shawn 8:14

I yeah, you you find me in Madina jail, man. I'd be like my hands behind my back. No, the night that that night, this uh when you get old. So I went home, took a shower. I put I transplanted all that shit too. So you did it that night? Yeah, I did it that night. So I went transplanted, watered it, got to bed. You were sore as sh. No, let me tell you. My legs started cramping so bad. I mean, to where it's drink water. I was drinking water. It had nothing to do with water. It had to do with your incline. It had to do with your damn incline because I was walking up. I went to the gym for like two hours that morning. I started over coming over your house, walking that damn incline, and I'm like, man, this is a freaking workout. I'm going up and down, up and down, I'm cleaning us. And then the last time I'm sitting there, you know that last one? Yeah, you look like that that laugh dude like dredging up that hill and going up there. So, no, when I got in bed, my the shit started cramping up so bad. You know how it just locks up everything? So then my hands.

G 9:21

Oh, you were getting cramps in your hands, yeah.

Shawn 9:23

My gums locked up, and and all of a sudden they wouldn't move. Yeah, I'm like, what the hell? I'm old. I know that. I know that.

G 9:34

You're old, brother. But I my shit was locked up, dude. We can't do the shit that we normally used to do. Like, I mean, because we just don't, we're not that you know, we're not that young, yeah, agile as we were.

Shawn 9:47

The plants look good, though. Yeah, they're not gonna be dead like you're just gonna kill them. I wasn't killing them. You was too.

G 9:54

I was just eliminating them. You were killing them. You already killed, you already sprayed some of them. Oh, yeah, I killed some of them. Yeah, yeah. I killed like half, probably half the uh black-eyed Susan that you took. Yeah. I killed them. I know you did. Those are all just killed.

Shawn 10:09

That's what I said. I came over and I sprayed them, just killed them. I came over and and I saved them. You saved the ones that were still alive. Now the shit will be growing all like crazy over at my house.

G 10:19

I'm telling you right now, they're gonna go everywhere. Those things are the most jumpiness plants, like they're a bunch of hoes. Any any flower bed, they're getting in bed with you. Getting in bed with me, they ain't getting in bed with me. In whatever bed. Oh, you mean the bed, the flower bed? The flower bed. Yeah, they're a bunch of hoes. Now, yeah, but they should be called black eye hoes. Do deer eat them? I have no idea. You think I got deer?

Shawn 10:40

No, I was just wondering. Yeah, well, everybody, it's Ohio, dude.

G 10:43

You got deer everywhere. In in 26 years of living here, it's funny that you say that. Like, because I'm on the lake and how we're kind of like located in here, and there's not really any forest close to us and all that stuff. I've had I woke up one time at four deer in my yard.

Shawn 10:59

Really?

G 11:00

One time.

Shawn 11:00

You know what I'm gonna do? I'm gonna go down to that weed and feed. And I they have that that meal for deer. Deer lick. Yeah. No, no, no, no, no. They have like that, that, the feed for deer. Right, right. And then you're gonna pour it in my yard? Yeah, when you guys, when you guys are gone, I'm gonna just dump a whole pile of that shit in the backyard. Why don't I just pour it in the bed, my bed, flower beds in the back. No, I'm gonna pour it in the backyard and all the neighbors will be like, what the fuck are you doing, Sean?

G 11:25

You know what? I just thought of something. This is the craziest thing. Now, some people are not gonna like this story. I'm gonna forewarn you. This is censor this story right now. When I first moved in here, there was nothing but fields. There was fields everywhere. And my biggest problem was because I was planting all this new stuff. I was finding new flowers and bushes and all that stuff. And my biggest problem were those goddamn rabbits. And dude, I was popping rabbits all over the place. You were shooting them? Oh, yeah. Dead rabbits. There's lots of dead rabbit graves around this place. You're a bunny killer. And now I'm ripping all the bushes that they were eating out. You're horrible, man. See, plant killer.

Shawn 12:13

Plant killer and bunny killer.

G 12:14

Yeah.

Shawn 12:15

Dude, we have so many. They're still around. That shit was funny, though. I'm thinking about that. I could, I, I, that would be funny. If I took some of that shit and just dumped it in your backyard, you'd have like a herd. Oh, well, dude.

G 12:25

It was a I I am like, I'm not afraid to kill I'm not afraid to kill an animal.

Shawn 12:31

I'm telling you right now. You can have animal. You can hide a bunny. You can have a hard time hiding a buck.

G 12:40

Dude, I get dude. I'd throw those things, I'd bury them, I'd throw them in the trash, I'd throw some in the lake. I'm like, I didn't care. Like, I was just get out of here, you stupid barbarian.

Shawn 12:50

We better get back to some airline shit, man. Next thing you know, you can get it. We just lost a thousand. Right, you're gonna have PETA coming after you. Bunny killer, right? They'll be like PETA. Thanks for a lot, Sean. There you go, you little bunny killer.

G 13:03

Yeah.

Pilot Duty Limits Versus Cabin Crew

Shawn 13:04

No, it okay. We gotta go back to the airline shit. So I was reading an article and they were talking about um the the flight the pilots actually do do do limitations. They had a flight, and these guys were just What did you say?

SPEAKER_02 13:18

Duty limit limitations.

Shawn 13:20

Sound like you said do do limitations. It didn't sound like do-do do limitation. Uh play it back. The pilots actually do do do limitations. So let's say duty limitations.

G 13:30

Yeah, okay.

Shawn 13:31

Now you feel better.

G 13:32

No, I just want to know what people might think if you're talking about them taking a dump or them working.

Shawn 13:39

Oh God, you're such a pilots actually do do do limitations. Duty limitations. The pilots' duty limitations. Right? So what happened was the flight was like three minutes from taking off and they exceeded the limitations. Oh yeah. What happens? Fine. What happens though? What happens to that flight? They haven't they haven't taken off yet. Oh, you I thought you just said that it was three minutes from taking off, right?

SPEAKER_02 14:05

Oh, three minutes from taking off, like before they got to end the runway and taking off.

G 14:09

And then and they exceeded it before they took off. Yeah. The plane says they get to the runway and it says, excuse me, but I need to taxi back to the gate. Yeah.

Shawn 14:18

Yeah. And that's exactly what they did. And see, this is the part a lot of a lot of passengers don't understand, right? Yep. They don't understand why can't you extend? Why can't you do that? Why can't they do that?

unknown 14:28

Dude.

Shawn 14:29

What happens to them? I mean, you know more than anybody.

G 14:31

I know, but what you what happens to them? They'll lose their freaking license, dude. They'll let they'll get fined. There's a whole bunch of repercussions that happen. And here's the other thing it's not just the company, it's the FAA, they're gonna get like NASA involved with it. There's all kinds of stuff that happens to them. There's it's pretty it's a huge deal. And why is it?

Shawn 14:50

Because there's rules. Well, is there rules though? That's what I'm saying. I'm gonna explain to them why they're rules because they they have to have so much rest.

G 14:58

Yeah.

Shawn 14:58

Right? That I mean it comes down to rest, safety of flight.

G 15:02

Yeah, we everybody in the airline industry has rules for rest, right? Ours are different than theirs, right? So they're theirs is marked by from takeoff to landing type of thing. Like they so minutes. That that's so if they don't have, if they're not rolling down the runway, they're not going. Yeah. Okay. But for the flight attendants, our measurement is the door, right? Yeah. So when you open and close the door. So it's it's it's it's wild how they're like two different things, but that's the industry.

Shawn 15:37

And nobody wants nobody wants to leave anybody at three o'clock in the morning. They don't they honestly they don't want they're already out there, they're ready to take off. But if it exceeds duty limitations, they can't because they have to turn back around. Because at at that point, they're in trouble.

G 15:52

Oh, yeah.

Shawn 15:53

Right? They and they get in a lot of trouble. And their license, everything. Yeah, their whole career's on the line if they're just so I mean, and these pilots, and and a lot of people were yelling and screaming, they didn't understand why they had taxied out, they were out the runway. They were right. We were ready. We were all ready. Why didn't we take off? And they don't understand you have to be airborne.

G 16:11

Yeah.

Shawn 16:12

Because if you're not airborne, you turn around and you go right back. Now, that's the same thing with the flight attendants, right? Yep. If the flight attendants aren't airborne, no, it's not airborne. Ours is the door. The door. Yeah. Right. That's the difference, isn't it? Yeah.

G 16:26

With the pilots. We can start boarding a plane. It's the same type of the situation. We can start boarding a plane. If they don't get it boarded quick enough for us to close the door on time for our duty limitations, what happens?

Shawn 16:38

See, that's that's the part that I want to explain. John Right. That's the part that I want to explain. The difference between the pilots and with the flight attendants. Okay. The the pilots, and that's why I was asking you. The pilots, it's airborne.

G 16:50

Yeah.

Shawn 16:50

And the flight attendants door close. Right. So if the door is open, flight attendants go illegal. By one minute, door stays open, and the flight attendants are not legal. It could be deplaning, put another crew, it could be cancellation, anything. But again, it's the flight attendants legality. And that's why I just want to bring clarity in how it works with the pilots and what works with the flight attendants. Because this plane, it was like three o'clock in the morning, and all these people didn't understand why they just didn't take off. They were all ready to go. And that's the difference. If it would have been the flight attendants, they would have just taken off because the pilots would have been fine. Okay. But since it was the pilots, the plane goes back and it cancels. And there's there's no way around it.

G 17:42

Yeah. I don't know if it I mean most of the time it cancels. There are sometimes they get replaced, whatever, but you know, rare that's a rare occasion when they have like pilots to replace those pilots type thing. Especially three o'clock in the morning. There's no way. Yeah, yeah.

Shawn 17:55

And you're an out station or you're something like that. And and there's so many things that go wrong because of hotels and everything. People just don't understand.

G 18:03

Yeah. We just got rules, period.

Shawn 18:05

They don't understand. But I mean, they they had this incident just happen, and I wanted to address it because a lot of people don't understand the legalities with the pilots compared to the flight attendants. Yeah.

Kids Learn Airline Rules Through Roleplay

Shawn 18:15

One of the cool things though, I've seen this video, and this guy he does these educational uh videos with these kids and he teaches them to ride. Is that freaking cool?

G 18:26

It's awesome. Man, I'm yeah, I wish we could like show you the whole video. The video's long. Right. But he's like literally, he's taking a whole school class and they put him on the plane, and then he's showing them basically how not to behave on a plane. Yeah, it was really cool. Yeah, and so he's he and the flight attendant are doing this little scenario interaction, and he's being, you know, these this totally objectable uh passenger that won't, you know, abide by the rules. And so he's going through all the different points. Yeah, you know, like he's checking all the boxes, yeah, all the all the boxes, and then afterwards, then he has a little brief with all the kids and they go around. What was I doing wrong? Why was it wrong? Right. These are the rules. These are this is how we have to we have to get to playing to do this. You know, you can't interfere with the crew, all this stuff.

Shawn 19:16

It was really cool. And and the great thing about it is that it's not just this video, okay? This guy does all kinds of stuff with kids. Oh, yeah. Yeah, and and and what it is is is it's the way that we they they should act. I didn't investigate into who this guy is and everything, but um, did you at all? Uh uh just a little bit. His his his I think his last name is King. Okay. I think it was something King, but you gotta watch this.

G 19:42

I mean, when you guys not ask him like what his name is. I just want to know, like, what like is he is he a teacher? Is does he is he doing like you know, big brother, big sister? Something like that. Like he is it like what type of organization is he with?

Shawn 19:57

It's more like a self-education guy. You know what I mean? Yeah, yeah, yeah. He goes around, he does this for um for young younger the younger kids, and that's exactly what it's for. It's it's actually to educate them. Right. He'll he'll show them even um like garbage workers. Yeah, you know, why you know how hard it is for a sanitation.

G 20:16

What was so impressive in that whole video was one thing to me that was like just stood out. Did you know what it was?

Shawn 20:23

There was I I watched the whole thing, but go ahead.

G 20:26

I I mean the biggest thing to me that was impressive, the kids would answer and they would be like, What? Yes, sir.

Shawn 20:33

Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yeah, oh yeah, yeah. And but he was okay, okay. You being from the military. Right. Did he seem like he was from the military?

G 20:43

No, no, no.

Shawn 20:44

You didn't you didn't think so?

G 20:45

No.

Shawn 20:45

I thought I thought he seemed like he was a little bit from the military, but he's not, not at all. Not I mean, and and what it is is No, he looked like he was just a really good teacher.

G 20:55

Yeah. That's what it is. Yeah, that's why I was trying to figure out like what is this organization? Is he tied in with somebody? I gotta, I gotta step into this a little bit more because if he does this with other things like that, that would be interesting. Because I've I've one advocate for everybody out there, especially flight attendants, like we have a lot of downtime. How many times in our career, like in the ebb and flow of our career, right? When we were single in the beginning and all this stuff, how much time, like, is there time where we have like a lot of time? No, yeah, a lot of personal time. Oh, yeah. Yeah, and so I would get to these points where it wasn't that I wasn't working, like I'd work enough to get what I wanted to be paid and all that stuff, but then I had all this extra time, and I was like, you know what? People, especially in the flight engineers industry, volunteer for shit. Yeah, like go out there and find an organization local. Like I'm on a I'm on a board right now, I'm with a charity that I've been working with them for like I think almost 20 years now. Yeah, and uh, but just like this guy, you know, I don't know what it is, but whatever it is, find some time in your life to. Do something that's a positive energy for the community. Yeah. You know what I mean? So I I I just that's what I kind of like took away from this whole thing. I but it was really cool video.

Shawn 22:10

Well, you know, when I when I was watching it, I I couldn't stop. You know what I mean? I I wanted to I I wanted to watch the whole thing.

G 22:18

Right.

Shawn 22:19

And you know, you just want to see where he was going from it. So and then I started watching some other videos, and I'm like, this guy's really cool.

G 22:27

Yeah, it took me a little while to figure out that this was an educational video. Yeah. If you guys if you guys they were doing a good job of role-playing at at the very beginning, right.

Shawn 22:35

At the very beginning. Because you you really didn't understand it. But you know, I I knew a little bit about him because I watched some other videos with him in there. And um, you know, I was so impressed with how he was educating these kids. Yeah. Because a lot of a lot of people don't take the time to educate them on how to behave and how to react. Did you did you notice one thing? Not one of those kids had headphones on. Oh no. Nothing, no distress.

G 23:00

It was like they were in class. Like it was like they were that's why I was like, I want to know more about this guy, like a little dive into it a little bit, because it was as if they were there for the education purpose of it. You know, the whole intention is there. But it was the it was a really cool thing.

Shawn 23:17

Now, when you're when you're talking about the downtime, a lot of times when we see a bunch of different videos, you know, I mean you're you're looking at funny videos and stuff like that. I was drawn to this one. Yeah. I mean, I was quickly drawn to that, and a lot of times you you're you're bored after a few seconds of the video. This one, man, it just I it just kept rolling. But

Earthquake Clips And Manila Flashbacks

Shawn 23:35

now talking about kids, first day of school. Did you see that on June 8th? Did you see the um the Philippines? Philippines. Yeah. Did you see that the videos of those? I was watching those videos, man. They have seven point eight? 7.8 earthquake. Yeah. I've never have you been in earthquake? Oh, yeah. Yeah, yeah. No, I was in California.

G 23:58

I was actually in the in the Marriott when whenever they had uh a bad I have like I grew up in California first 13 years of my life, and there was earthquakes out there and all this stuff, but I've never, ever, ever experienced a fur earthquake where I like it was like, I know I'm in an earthquake. Like there's been rumblers, a trembler, it's happening. I'm moving around, I can't tell what's going on. This was for real. Like ground was opening up, cracking, buildings are falling down.

Shawn 24:27

These kids had just started school.

G 24:29

Yeah.

Shawn 24:30

And and not only that, though, a lot of those, a lot of those islands, tsunamis.

G 24:34

Oh, yeah, the tsunami of uh that's what I was thinking about when we ever when I watched the whole video. I was thinking, this is just the start. Yeah. Right? Yeah. So I'm sure they were having tsunami warnings, especially with that big of an earthquake.

Shawn 24:47

Years ago, years ago, um, back in the early 80s, I went into I went to the Philippines. I used to fly in and out of Manila. And do you remember the Marcos, the amount of Marcos? So um it kind of takes you back. I mean, you know, even with the the earthquake, and I I started thinking, man, when I used to go in and out of the Manila Hotel, the Marcos's they they had um, you know, they have a lot of um uh historical things. She had 3,000. I remember no, I went I went and seen the they didn't have 3,000 on display, yeah. But the the exhibit I think was like of all our shoes. At least a thousand of them. I mean, but she supposedly reportedly had over three thousand pairs of shoes.

G 25:28

What in the hell you're gonna do it? Outside of them scamming and getting in trouble and all that, you know, the Marcos and all the the thing was the shoes. Yeah.

Shawn 25:38

It was uh the Philippines was m one of the most gut-wrenching places back then whenever I was flying. Um why? Because the kids. I mean, you know, you go downtown you go downtown area and there's these kids um no money begging on the sides of the sides of the road. Poverty. Yeah, it's so bad. It was so bad. And and you know, you walk by and these kids were eating stuff out of like piles of just crap, you know. And it just broke your heart. Because, you know, a few dollars to them back then, I mean, it it was it it would go a long way, especially our money. It would go a long way a long way. I used to I used to take five dollars and I would give it to one of the vendors, and they I would never give money to the kids because they would run back and give it to their family. Right. Okay, but what I did is I paid one of the vendors to cook all this rice, and then kids would come up with like their cans and everything. They'd they'd you know dip it in there. But it was only five dollars. But back then, I think it was like exchanger, it was like 40 to one. It was ridiculous how much how much uh it's still good.

G 26:42

Yeah. It's you know, it's it's that's one of the uh like one of the most I'd say poorest regions of the world. Have you ever been? I have never been there. I've wanted to because it's beautiful, yeah.

Shawn 26:54

It's beautiful. They they filmed um Apocalypse Now there. Did you know that? It was out. I took a Jeepney out that that thing, and it was like uh it they all they did were back up, man. What? Whatever you just said, I don't know what you just said. A gypney. A gypney. Have you ever seen No? I have no idea. A gypny.

G 27:13

I thought you just I thought you were having a moment there or something. Yeah, yeah, like something's wrong. What's happening? Yeah, yeah. I was like, are you okay?

Shawn 27:20

He's are you okay? Yeah, exactly. Don't do it. No, it's gymney. Okay, and what it is, it it's like it's it's like this little transportation bus with the windows out of it. Gotcha. Okay. So gymney. People listen to that. That's how they said it. You're like, go ahead. What was this? One day, what the heck it was. He's like, yeah, having a stroke. It was carrying all that shit from your backyard. You slurring a lot of words today. Shut up. The pilots actually do do do limitations. So but anyway, we took it, we took it out there and and you got into these little fing canoes, and you go through this. It looked like you were back in Vietnam.

G 27:55

Yeah.

Shawn 27:56

I mean, you you're going through and all of a sudden it just opened up. Remember Apocalypse now, they were driving the Ricefield.

G 28:01

Yeah.

Shawn 28:02

But but you know when they were driving the the gunboats down through there, and it's like all open. That's what happened. I mean, so you're going through all this this shit, and all of a sudden it just opens up into this waterway. And I'm like, how in the hell we get back now? Yeah. Because you get just got all this, you know, freaking groves and shit in there. But it is absolutely gorgeous on the outside of the Philippines. The city's a little bit for me and you back in then, the city would have been was fun. Right. If me and you would have been hanging out, if we'd have been together in Manila, the red light district. Dude, red light district back then was crazy. It was I I can't even begin to tell you, man. It was nuts. That's a different episode. Yeah. I don't even know if we can go there. So, what's been going on with you? We better go somewhere else because we're gonna start talking about bad things.
