Starting point is 00:00:56 I don't even remember the time I spent down there, but you know, I guess it's possible. That's why I tried to have the case thrown out Because I didn't want to have it proven, but now that it's proven, okay. I've got to comment on it or anything, but, you know, if you say so, if you say so. Good luck getting some cash from me, though. That whole Ukraine money is down the toilet right now.
Starting point is 00:02:05 Whose widow Haley is dating, if that's what you want to call it? Hunter, her dead husband's married brother. But she blames her evil twin, who showed up in episode 43.

Oh, that's it.

Starting point is 00:03:46 Hey, hey, hey, hey. It's also an email system. There's an email that it can email us a resume. And maybe that's, the hotline accepts maybe text messages from those people that would like to send. Just dating. In the resume for dating. Just dating. Then you can have a voicemail to the hotline, which is powered right now by a Patriot Mobile.
Starting point is 00:04:06 Yeah, it's a very on-demand hotline right now. It most definitely is an on-demand hotline. So behind baseball for the audience, there's a couple of mobile services fighting for that hotline at this moment. But right now. So right now it's PowerBad Patriot Mobile. 2-147359356.

Starting point is 00:07:26 who've helped me become the folks who raised me fraser marian craig and my vast extended family i don't know how long i'm going to be able to take this because it's so good and i'm I am just overwhelmed already. You're tearing up. You need some tissues? So, I'm fine. Just go ahead, go ahead. We'll try to do it.
Starting point is 00:07:47 My circle of strong women who always lift me up. My loyal and dedicated staff who continue to make me proud. To the loves of my life. Malia and Sasha, my two most precious peas. She's good there. Who are my reasons for being. And finally, Barack. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:05 Who always promised me an interesting journey. Did he? Did he? Becoming. Oh, there we go. Preface. March 2017. Tell me it's not riveting already.
Starting point is 00:08:21 I mean... When I was a kid, my aspirations were simple. I wanted a dog. I wanted a house that had stairs in it. Two floors for one family. Right. I wanted for some reason a four-door station wagon instead of the two-door Buick that was my father's pride and joy.
Starting point is 00:08:41 I hated my dad. I used to tell people that When I grew up, I wanted to be a pediatrician. Why? Right? Because I love being around little kids, and I quickly learned that it was a pleasing. No, no, go on. Wait, wait just a second, because she tells us why she ends up telling people why she wanted to be a pediatrician.
Starting point is 00:08:58 Sure, she well, like little kids. But then she realized. The answer for adults to hear. Yeah, if you back that up, it was a pleasing answer for adults to hear. So she realized if I say, what do you want to be when you grow up? A pediatrician. up i wanted to be a pediatrician why because i love being around little kids and i quickly learned that it was a pleasing answer for adults to hear oh a doctor what a good choice
Starting point is 00:09:25 in those days i could lie to adults and they went oh okay great well everybody does that every kid does that what do you want to grow up a doctor a fireman a policeman because that's all we know Really? Yes. Okay. Whatever. I mean... What are you trying to do here?
Starting point is 00:09:48 No, I'm just saying... Are you trying to like, our first lady is just like... I'm just saying that she realized she could lie and everybody liked it. And I'm just saying that that may have transcended time throughout the years. But I can't take any more. You've already got a gist of what... Or pigtails and bossed my older brother around and managed always and no matter what to get A's.
Starting point is 00:10:12 You know, if you cut this, if you just not let it play for the full 10 minutes that we have, you're going to be called a racist and a sexist, right, and a bigot. Because a white man has stopped a black female from speaking. Man, I wish we didn't have the audio problems we're having right now with our equipment. It's just, I can't. I want to play the whole thing, but I don't want to, if we're, with the audio problems there's just,
Starting point is 00:10:42 wouldn't do it justice. And so people go out and buy the audio version of becoming, and then you'll be able to enjoy it for yourself without the audio problems and know that hopefully, hopefully,
Starting point is 00:10:57 that she wins the Grammy. What are the odds? What are the odds? Michelle Obama wins the Grammys? What are the odds that Barack and Michelle are there as nominated? for the Grammys at the Grammy Awards.
Starting point is 00:11:13 They both show up? No. Where they're not Netflix pin? No, they're both not showing up. Or do they film? Yes. They film a hello with a, I wish I could be there tonight, but we're in Ukraine. It depends what happens with the impeachment hearings by the end of the year.
Starting point is 00:11:34 So. Because if they're there, it means Trump is out. If they're not there, it's during Ukraine. So they're not going to be there because Trump's not going to be out. Trump's not going to be. I don't start playing the political music. I'm just telling you. No, I'm not because I brought this up.
Starting point is 00:11:49 I brought this up. He's not going to be out. But I think you're right. Depends on how that's going. Yeah. Or how it's already, if they've already wrapped it up. Yeah, yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:57 Because like if the country is like... If they voted, if the House has voted to impeach him and they're just waiting on the Senate, they're there. Yeah, they're there. Absolutely. Because in the country, it's like, see, there's nothing wrong. But if the house has... haven't voted and we're still doing this whole dance.
Starting point is 00:12:13 Yep. Doing BVAS satellite from Ukraine and Russia. And then, sorry, look at the time. Wish we could be there. Which thought, oh, wait, that's tonight. So we filmed two. We filmed two. We filmed the, maybe we do a live shot.
Starting point is 00:12:26 If they win, we do a live shot. Okay. Maybe. Okay. Maybe. But we do a film. Hey, yes, I'm Michelle Obama. Thank you so much for the nomination.
Starting point is 00:12:35 Wish I could be there. Rock on. Hey, Taylor Swift, sorry. You couldn't sing your songs because you signed a deal. Now you're pissed. Sorry. So I wish you could. I know how bad they're against you though, Taylor, because they're putting you down. Another way to keep a female down. I'm with you all the way, even though you signed the million dollar deal and now you're not happy with it. But that's another story because I'm on your side. That's for another day. Yeah. Don't bug me that more facts.
Starting point is 00:12:59 Agonizing. Come on, Taylor. That whole Taylor Smith thing is agonizing. Dude, for the last two years, she's been going down this spiral of like nonsense. It's ridiculous. Who's advising her? Probably no one. Did someone die? She's Taylor Swift, right? Did someone die? Who, that's possible. Somebody close to her. Yeah, that was intimate.
Starting point is 00:13:16 Pass away or they're no longer talking because she was doing really good when it came to like keeping herself out of politics. I'm above everything. Above all those. I'm Taylor Swift. I'm doing it on my own. I have a brand new.
Starting point is 00:13:28 And now it's like, wherever that person was in her life is no longer part of her life. And she's just making dumb decisions. Yes. In fact, that could be the title of her next album. Taylor Swift. Dumb decisions. And it'll be specifically about her.
Starting point is 00:13:45 But congratulations to Michelle Obama. And my gosh, do I... Oh, I fix the audio. What? Yeah, I fix the audio. Can I play some more? I mean, did the engineers stuff come in? Engineer stuff.
Starting point is 00:13:56 I post a 911 and he was here fixing the audio. Oh, that's great because he knew that we were trying to play the Michelle Obama audio. Go ahead, I guess. No, I didn't know exactly what I was shooting for. Now I think it's one of the most. useless questions an adult can ask a child. What do you want to be when you grow up? Okay, never mind.
Starting point is 00:14:16 The audience back up. No, no, no, no. Continue this. I want to hear what she says now. As if growing up is finite, as if at some point you become something, and that's the end. So far in my life, I've been a lawyer. I've been a vice president at a hospital and the director of a nonprofit that helps young people build meaningful careers.
Starting point is 00:14:37 I've been a working class black student at a fairer. I'm a fancy, mostly white college. Shut up. I've been the only woman, the only African American in all sorts of rooms. I've been a bride, a stressed out new mother, a daughter torn up by grief.
Starting point is 00:14:55 And until recently, I was the first lady of the United States of America. Wow, look at that. The engineers didn't fix it all too bad. I wish they had. She forgot that an immigrant took her job, too. Call them, call them back, because the... Oh, we're calling back?
Starting point is 00:15:12 All the engineers back because there's too much of a problem. And tell them, look, we're trying to do a show. We've got other stuff to do. So, oh, look, darn, we can't get through. Darn it, the equipment's all down. And, poof, man, I wish we could get a hold of something. So just let me say congratulations to Michelle. Oh, see.
Starting point is 00:15:29 What is going on? Everything's down here. You know, that's why Texas, that's where we're in trouble. We're on our own grid. The whole thing's going to hell. We can't play the Michelle Obama audio. Wish we could. Because I really,
Starting point is 00:15:43 whew, man. But congratulations and my gosh, I hope that you win. I'll tell you what, my money's on you. As long as we're on music and we're, you know, we started out with, you know, the Grammys and Michelle Obama and a little Taylor Swift. We might as well continue on with Little Music News. Harry Connick, Jr., who I love, he had an interview with UK's this morning show, and he recalled,
Starting point is 00:16:06 now he's trying to bring down Frank Sinatra. Oh, come on. He's going to piss me off. Come on, man. He's going to try to bring down Frank Sinatra. He talked about how Frank was completely inappropriate. Absolutely he was. And I, he's Frank Sinatra.
Starting point is 00:16:20 Exactly. And by the way, here's the story. Okay. So bug me down with facts. Yes. Yeah. So Harry is going to perform at some, at some thing. And Frank's going to be there, all right?
Starting point is 00:16:33 So Harry chokes. He can't do it. He doesn't do it. And he's really bummed because he was so nervous and he blanked on stage. and he just couldn't do it. So right there, Frank's like, holy God, what are they doing to me? I had to come to this joint and watch these people
Starting point is 00:16:46 and this kid's supposed to be good. And he sucks. He couldn't even perform. And so after the show, they end up in the same elevator together. Okay, so Frank and Harry's girlfriend at the time who is now his wife, Goodacre, who is pretty good looking.
Starting point is 00:17:09 I don't want to meet to her, but she's pretty good looking. She ain't lying. Not that she was working for Victoria's Secret or anything at the time. But she was okay. I know. I know. So she's one of the real angels. So she's in the elevator.
Starting point is 00:17:23 And Frank and Harry and her in the elevator. And Harry's trying to tell Sinatra, I'm sorry. I'm much better than what you saw. And Frank, that even just ignores him. It was like, whatever. He choked, dude. Right. Why are you talking to me?
Starting point is 00:17:38 No bother. But Harry looks at the girlfriend and says. So Frank is looking at Harry like, shut up. But then he sees the girlfriend. He just looks and he goes, You're beautiful. And he reaches over and he kisses it right out of the mouth, walks out of the elevator.
Starting point is 00:18:02 Come on, man. That's inappropriate. That is not inappropriate. Stop it. That's Frank Sinatra. Yes. You're lucky Frank Sinatra. you.
Starting point is 00:18:10 Yes. You're lucky. I'm sorry. Isn't the guy from Family Feud, he kissed every girl in the mouth. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:18:17 That was the thing back in the day. Plus, it's Frank Sinatra. Yes, Jeff, you tell me that you're going to say no to a kiss from Fastenatra?
Starting point is 00:18:24 In fact, if I'm Harry, I'm like, dude, I'm not worth a kiss. Thank you. Great. So, I'm sorry. Don't be bringing down Frank Sinatra. Harry, I love you.
Starting point is 00:18:32 That pisses me off. I love Harry Connick Jr. But I'm sure he's telling the story and he's going to say, I wasn't trying to break down Frank Sinatra. I was just trying to tell a funny story. No, you were trying to bring down Frank Sinatra.
Starting point is 00:18:43 I think so. I think so. It's like the same people trying to bring down Michael Jackson. Like, stop it. Or the same people trying to bring down Bill Cosby. Like, stop it. Wait. Or the same people try to bring down like Harvey Weinstein and Matt Louder. And like, stop it.
Starting point is 00:18:56 Enough is enough. Enough is enough. Let's stop bringing down these American icons. I'm getting tired of this. Speaking of another American icon. Cisco The Cino Cisco

Starting point is 00:22:33 So we've covered online dating and Tara Price, who works here at The Blaze, got a little upset because she believes. And I don't know that I want to talk to her now because she's trying to shoot down the CTF dating app that we have going on. And, you know, she's coming in with a thing of statute. She practically harangued me in the hallway. Like, how come you're promoting all these dating apps when it's better to, you know, dump people at a bar in person. I'm like, okay, well, we'll talk to you.
Starting point is 00:23:08 We'll talk to you because I believe, you know, look, you've got Bumble, you've got Tinder, you've got OkCupid, you've got Hinge, coffee meets bagel, which is one of my favorites other than the CTF. You got HAPA, the league, her, clover, I mean,
Starting point is 00:23:23 and plenty of fish, my favorite. Match E-Harmony, you've got the Farmers Almanac dating app. It's the Farmers one. I don't remember what it's called. I wish I could remember the farmers. I think it's farmer something that's their dating. Farmer single. Farmer single, is that what it is?
Starting point is 00:23:39 Yeah, it's what are I. Because farmers, I don't even know this. Facts, is this, you may have this in your stack of facts today on Fat Pile Friday, Tara, but farmers are like the people that are having the most sex in the country. With people? That one's a good question because I don't know the answer. Okay. I'm just going to stick with the most sex.
Starting point is 00:23:57 Okay. Anyway, welcome to chewing the fat. Thank you. Good to be here. Is it? That's what I thought. It's very good to be. That's what I thought.
Starting point is 00:24:05 So what's your problem with the dating apps? Well, for starters, I think that if you can't form a meaningful relationship face to face, that doing it online, you're going to fail miserably because my rule is if you wouldn't do it in person, don't do it online. But with the dating apps, you're seeing a picture. Yeah. Which could be real or fake. Well, we're just bringing me done with facts, Jeffrey. We're just assuming that it's real right now.
Starting point is 00:24:29 You want to hear a stat? we're assuming that the picture I send of my face or any other body part is me. A D-pick? Is me. Trust me. The one you get from me is not me. Anyway, but go ahead. Well, it's the first thing that jumped out at me when I was looking at the stats.
Starting point is 00:24:49 Whoa. Oh, no. Okay, go ahead. So the first thing that jumped out at me was, okay, basically they're saying that because online dating is a very lucrative industry, that $1.9 billion a year, they're saying, that and because people are putting off marriage that it's projected to continue to grow. So they're looking at it as it's just a way to make money,
Starting point is 00:25:10 which is fine. I'm a capitalist. I get that. But if you're encouraging people to put off marriage, then what's the point of dating if you're not trying to find someone to spend in your life with? That's the way I say. Unless you're just trying to hook up. Right.
Starting point is 00:25:23 That's what we're promoting, right? That's what the dating app is before me. Now, CTF dating app is not promoting that at all. We're promoting. I was going to say, what? No, we're not promoting just hooking up. Yes, thank you. We're into relationships and building strong family values.
Starting point is 00:25:36 Are you? But a pole man. Yes. But other sites, other sites like. E-Harmony. Just do want it off the top of my head like Tinder. You know, they pretend that they're, you know, but they're just a hookup. Or grinder.
Starting point is 00:25:53 Or grinder. Oh, yeah. That name. Just the name grinder. Just. Yes. Yeah. It's just kidding.
Starting point is 00:26:00 That does. say it all. Yes. So it's over a billion dollars. CTF dating app has got to get up and running. We got to put this voice mail stuff. We got to get the app up and running for it. The app people are working on it.
Starting point is 00:26:12 Yeah, we got to have people working on it. Okay. Well, it's like the porn industry. You know, the porn industry, it's the biggest industry, you know, there is. That's what the internet was created for. Are you, think I don't know that? Is that what you're telling me that's something about the porn industry? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:26:24 I'm just making sure you know that I know. Okay. No. Okay. So you'd prefer as a, as a female in today's world? You're identifying as a female today, right? Every day, yeah. That people meet face-to-face, whether it's Target bathrooms,
Starting point is 00:26:43 whether it's, you know, the local bar. Target bathroom. You went to Target bathroom. That's interesting. Where you meet people? Anywhere. Wherever you meet people. Anywhere, yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:57 So if you're going to meet someone in a Target bathroom, I think that Grindr is probably for you. Probably most likely. But regardless, I know that, okay, a number of people say that they've lied on their profile, you know, online dating sites. And also a number of people say that they've had someone else help them create their online profile, which I think that's problematic because you're not projecting who you are. If someone else is creating it for you, then I think that that's up, you're already going
Starting point is 00:27:21 into it not in control of your situation. But other than that, let's say if I'm out at an establishment, all right? And I'm not being funny now. Oh, you're not. Okay, serious. This is serious, Jeffie. Seriously. Okay.
Starting point is 00:27:34 If I'm out of an establishment, and other than being face to face, you know, human to human, one of the odds I'm going to tell you all that everything is the truth. Really? I mean, one of the odds. I mean, if you're out trying to meet someone and take care of a little bit of this at the local night spot. Right. Am I telling you everything that's the truth? No, so, I mean, I would.
Starting point is 00:28:01 I would. Would you? Do you know me at all? I would put it all out there. It's like, take it or leave it. Okay. Yeah. All right.
Starting point is 00:28:11 All right. Go on with you. But I can admit, though, most people aren't that way. Most people are not like that. And if I'm, look, some of these apps are for people who are trying to get back into the world today that, let's say, we're married for a number of years and now are single, whether it be widowed or widower or divorce. Right. And they have to find a way to meet single people that they normally, they don't want to go
Starting point is 00:28:39 to a bar. Right. They don't want to go out. You know, restaurants is a tough play. You're sitting alone. Mind if I sit down. What are you doing with your hot self? It just does not going to happen at the Olive Garden.
Starting point is 00:28:48 No, probably not the Olive Garden. So, I mean, you want to, you know, is there a restaurant that it would happen at? I would say more of a bar setting. Right. Yeah. Right. And then, like, we established that's, you know, is that really better? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:29:03 I don't know. Yes, it is. Right. I mean, that's what you're saying. That is better. In my opinion, because I think it puts you out there to learn, you learn who you are. I think you learn more about yourself when you have to actually be yourself and you can't hide behind a computer screen. Okay.
Starting point is 00:29:17 You know. But it's also interesting to note that 60% of people who are on online dating apps are already in relationships. Oh. So that's kind of, you know. And then also, it's also. The more and more, the larger the number grows to like as far as people actually engaged in online dating. It's kind of one of the situations where they, you flood the market. So there's not, the quality of actual, like, user goes down.
Starting point is 00:29:46 Interesting. Because you're flooding the market with options, so to speak. So most of the people are already in relationships or already married? Because, I mean, we have, you know, I mean, I'm not sure about all the other us, but we have, you know, the one Ashley Madison, that's what they're famous for. Right. I mean, hey, cheat.
Starting point is 00:30:01 Right. Well, that's true, yeah. They're out there with it, you know, they didn't hold anything back in that sense. As, you know, founder of the CTF dating app, I don't know that I, I cannot endorse something like that. Does purgatory have a swipe? Out of curiosity.
Starting point is 00:30:16 Yes, in the funeral lap, that would be down. Oh, that's the funeral lap. Okay, yes, okay. It would be down. Okay. Because we took a story, I don't know, something yesterday or the day before about a late. a lady who met her new boyfriend, 30 or 40 years age difference at the funeral of her son.
Starting point is 00:30:37 Oh. So, I mean, when they first met it. That's a God thing. Is it? Is it a God thing? Because that's what he said. I'm sure he did. And so did she.
Starting point is 00:30:50 Never mind. I won't take the joke any farther. Please do. So do you actually have a You're completely against all these dating apps then right I mean that's why you hunted me down in the hallway And so listen to that man What are you talking about?
Starting point is 00:31:04 What are you doing with these dating apps all right? People need to talk to each other I mean I wouldn't say I'm 100% against it But what I am saying is that I believe that It's just it makes people It hinders people from personal growth Because you get in a pattern We set patterns for ourselves
Starting point is 00:31:18 And if you don't have that Sometimes being embarrassed or being kind of off your game a little bit is good for you to help you grow and determine who you are and who you want to be and how the person you want to attract. And I think that if you hide behind a monitor, it's a lot easier to just be someone you're not. Doesn't it happen though? If I want to go out on a date and I'm behind the monitor and I send a picture that is legitimately a picture of me and I say, hey, you know, and you find someone and I swipe right and I go out on that date. aren't I getting that then? To some degree, but how many people did you sift through to get to that person?
Starting point is 00:31:56 And it's kind of like whenever you do that, you're become a lot more shallow and what you're, I don't think people, basically, I know women lie about age, men lie about money. And so whenever, if that's a common thing to be lying about, those are both things that are kind of a big deal. And so if it's easy to lie about that, people, ultimately people just want to hook up is what it boils down to. And which is fine. But I think that also I was reading one of the stats said that one in four women, and I'm Sorry, four out of five women don't use protection and they have sex on the first date. And so that's, that's the problem.
Starting point is 00:32:24 I mean, that's not healthy, you know, in general. It's not good for, wait, what? It said four out of five women don't use protection and they have sex on the first date. You said it's not healthy? Well, it depends on how you, I guess how you define healthy. I should have qualified that. That's pretty an amazing stat. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:40 That's really amazing. We're smarter than that in today's world, you would think. Are we? I guess not. I guess not, right? I stole your line, but yeah. No, it's fine. It's amazing to me that that actually still happens.
Starting point is 00:32:54 Yeah, yeah. So, all right, so here's the deal. First of all, thank you for stopping by and bogging me down with facts. Anytime. Anytime. The show cannot be bogged down with facts anymore. And second, we're going to have to change some guidelines on CTF dating app because of this. So you'll bring you, you can be an honorary board member of the CTF dating app.
Starting point is 00:33:17 Consultant. Well, okay, we'll start you as a consultant. I just was in my ear with the other board member, and he was like, ooh, no, consultant first. I'll just be the face of it. We're not going to put you on the board. I'll just be the face of it. We'll talk later. Okay.
Starting point is 00:33:36 So things will change at the CTF dating app for sure, because you've really brought me down with facts, and I'm very disappointed about that. But just go out and meet somebody this weekend. That's what you need to do. This is Fat Pile Friday. This is my helpful hint for you this weekend. Just go out. If you're looking for a date, just go out and meet someone. Right.
Starting point is 00:33:56 Put yourself out there a little bit. Instead of swiping right or swiping left, walk forward and put yourself out there. Right. Fair enough. Or just you can also just do it to where you meet someone and then find them on Tinder. Right? Yeah. There you go.

This story's been in my fat pile for about a week and a half now, something like that about the passenger that puts the feet up on the headrest in an airplane. And there's a picture of it.
Starting point is 00:35:49 And we're seeing more and more of this happening. And I think now we're starting to see more and more of this happening because more and more of it is happening. Social media. Yeah, social media is creating it. So you've got to come up. We've got to come up with something that, you know, everybody has. has to carry like a bobby pin or something and just poke the feet. They just tickle them.
Starting point is 00:36:07 Just poke the bottom of their foot. Although some people are ticklish. Plus, I don't like to mess with people's feet. Maybe you carry rubber gloves that a mess room. I don't have touched their nasty feet. Are those TSA approved? Yes. Yes, they are.
Starting point is 00:36:21 But I feel like you've got to do something, you know? Like, I don't know, maybe everybody carry a kazoo or something with them. What are you carrying? What do you mean? What is it with you in carrying stuff? Well, I'm just saying something that we have to pull out of our pocket, right? So they put your feet up next to you. No, we're not going to carry anything else.
Starting point is 00:36:42 We're not allowed to carry anything in TSA. It's like the 3-1-1 rule. What is the 3-1-1 rule? Three ounces and one of each? Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, from TSA. Yeah, because I don't, oh, I don't even start with me on the stuff you can't bring through TSA anymore. What do you got? You got alcoholic beverages over 140 proof.

Starting point is 00:37:18 I do not go anywhere with a green giant cream corn. Sure. Olive oil. How am I supposed to cook in the plane? Yogurt. What am I supposed to eat? Well, wait. Fresh food or vegetables.

You can put it in package. Check bag. Yeah, because I travel, a lot of my big beliefs, no checking. I am not a fan of checking.
Starting point is 00:38:37 Sometimes it's, you have to, I know. But the standing afterwards is so stupid. You, Aubrey's standing there like an idiot, waiting for the backs who dropped. And God forbid you grab the wrong bag by mistake. Because then here comes TSA police department. Sir, you grab the wrong bag. That's my bag.
Starting point is 00:38:57 That's my bag. Pretty soon you got a bag fight going on. Well, not just that. They won't allow you to give the bad back to the person because now we're going to do the investigation. Why did you grab that bag? So we have to make sure to open that bag because now you touch that bag.
Starting point is 00:39:10 We don't know what you put in it. Oh, I've never seen that. It may have. That makes sense, but I've never seen that. Where I grabbed the wrong bag. Wow. So you grab the wrong bag. You just put it back on the conveyorbell.
Starting point is 00:39:23 Oh, no, you can't do that. No, that's not the right one. You put it back on the cabaret belt. What do you mean you can't do that? According to the MCO, Orlando Police Department at the airport. port you charge that bag that bag that bag is not yours you try to put it back um what he trying to do i'm trying to get my bag which i thought that was and it wasn't so they had to open the back to

I couldn't go through that without telling them they were stupid. And then they put me in jail. Seriously, there's no kidding. Hopefully my wife would be there or another friend would be there telling me to stop. Interestingly, it went from your wife to your friend.
Starting point is 00:40:15 Well, I traveled once. I was not there. I was not really like with you Chris. Another friend, I said, another friend. Because I was traveling once with another friend. and we were at Tampa International and we were waiting to go through TSA and this family was in front of us
Starting point is 00:40:30 and I know I've told the story before but this family was in front of us mom, dad, son, daughter, okay? And they're traveling. We're waiting in the line at TSA. And the mother goes through and then they want to have the daughter go through and the daughter starts freaking out a little bit
Starting point is 00:40:43 like she doesn't want, you know, she's kind of scared and doesn't know what's going on. So the mother wants to go back through and take care of the daughter. No, we can't do that. And so the dad is trying to help her. No, sir, you can't help your dog.
Starting point is 00:40:54 And I'm thinking, it's a family. At the same time. At the same time. Mohammed Atta, Jr. is going through the other line. Nobody questioning him. Just right on through. Beep, beep, beam.
Starting point is 00:41:10 Just go on through. Who was going through? Muhammad Atta Jr. And if you don't know who Muhammad Atta is, look it up. Okay? And I'm like, and I took a two steps forward. to say something to the TSA. Like, are you guys kidding me?

He says, dude, we want to get to L.A. Shut the hell up. And so I did. And then another time with my wife, remember, in Arizona, in Phoenix,
Starting point is 00:41:44 when I was ready to completely go off. And if it wasn't for her, I would have been in jail. No question. With that flight attendant, stewardess, door watcher, floor cleaner, whatever the hell she was, close that door in my face, I was ready to go off. And then my wife caught me down there. We went over and the lady said, okay, is there anything?
Starting point is 00:42:08 How can I help you? Is there a problem? Yeah, there's a problem. And my wife is, I got it. I got it. Because I can't. So if I was messing with, if I picked up the wrong piece of luggage, by my accident, it's definitely doable.
