Today's episode is brought to you by MeUndies. MeUndies are the undies that I have on me right now. Also, today we're brought to you by Babbel. Babbel is the number one selling language learning app, and we're going to tell you why. Let's jump into this podcast. Hello, everybody. It's time for Ghost on Trend Dog.

Ghost on Trend Dog in the morning. In the morning. Broadcasting live, live, live, live, live. In 4-hour recording studio. Recording. Wake your ass up. It's the Cretin Dog in the morning. Cretin Dog in the morning. Wowee.

Wowee. Woo. Woo. That's going to be somebody that like, it's like their first podcast they've listened to of us. And they're like, let's see what this Cox and Creddor program is. And it's just like, wowee. That's pretty much all it is to be honest. Sometimes you got to wowee woo woo.

Sometimes. Yeah. That's pretty much all it is, to be honest. Sometimes you got to wow-wee-woo-woo. Sometimes. Sometimes you just got to do the old wow-wee-woo-woo, just like in The Sims. Just like in The Sims. And also right now those people that are brand new are also lost. They're like, what the hell is a sim? If they've made it this far and they're still lost, it's probably not the right program for them. I'm going to let you know, they probably are in a nursing home,

unable to change the station. The station? That's right. Broadcasting live to all the nursing homes. You're probably in a nursing home already. You can't change the station. How do I change the station? I don't want this Crencox anymore.

It's a podcast. Nana. What? How do I change the station? I want to get out of here. Uh, yeah, that's,

uh, you know, and then people have been listening for like years or just like, uh, here they are again. These idiots, you know what? They're like,

nothing's changed. Still the same episode. Yeah. Oh yeah, speaking of episodes, last week, I said I was gonna make the British breakfast. And I did. And you did make the British breakfast. I saw it, yes. I tweeted it to you as well as

Sam and Dodger. I saw Sam's response on stream. What was his response? His response was, There's only one strip of bacon. Only bacon. Oh, and then, Where's the blood pudding?

Where's the, It's not greasy. Where's the grease? Oh, But then after all that, he was like, For an American, it's pretty good.

It's probably the best American breakfast I've seen for full English. And I was like, you know what? I'll take that. That puts me at the top tier of non-British people making a British breakfast. I don't know that that's true, but I definitely saw the comments on the internet, and a lot of people were hating on the fact that you're like, it was always something different, but it was always hilarious it was like oh yeah that egg isn't cooked right or only one strip of bacon or those sausages aren't the right sausages

or the beans that you're using are inaccurate beans i was like what do you want from him all right this is when i when i tweeted this i knew that was gonna happen. I knew the floodgates were gonna open up and there was gonna be some like BORDER BRITISH You know, I knew that was gonna happen. But, uh, like, okay, first off, first off, blood pudding. Alright, I'm not

gonna make blood pudding. I already don't like the fact that pudding in England is not actually pudding, like American pudding is some weird bread. Alright, I'm not gonna do that, uh, second, like, I could have got the other form of bacon, I could have put more than one strip, all right, you're talking to a guy who's had two endoscopies and no gallbladder, all right, I want to eat this and not die, uh, so that's why I just, you know, I already had the three sausages there, and I'm like, you know what? Just do one bacon. I'm not going crazy. Then I did some over easy eggs.

I thought that was a fair enough egg creation. Then usually with the toast, I'll put the egg on the toast and you break it open with the yolk and it soaks into the toast. Apparently some people are like, butter the toast. I'm like, I'm not going to do that if I got eggs. Apparently some people are like Butter the toast I'm not going to do that if I got eggs If anything I see this as a challenge To see what you did and how everyone complained

And see if I can use their complaints To make a more acceptable breakfast You should I went through the fire So you don't have to Right now I can make one And do exactly what they said And they'll still find something wrong with it

Oh yeah they will will. No doubt. And on the beans, I literally bought the Heinz beans from like the British grocery store section. So they're like imported from the UK. So they're like the actual beans they use over there. Not good enough.

They're like, there's not enough beans. I'm like, again, I'm going to eat this. I'm going to get heartburn. I did get heartburn. But you know what? It wasn't as bad as it could have been. And my stomach's okay today. So that's really all that matters.

I think the difference is you didn't make it for a photo op. You made it because you were going to actually eat it. And you made it the way you wanted to eat it rather than like, I made it extra greasy. Now it glistens when I take my camera shot. Like no no no no yeah you have to eat it i gotta eat that thing you know what i enjoyed eating it it was a good time and then uh you know i actually enjoyed the one i made more than the one i had in england which was from like the the coxconn hotel uh like it was i'd say it was a little better i think my mushrooms tasted better i think by the beans were the same because they're probably literally the same beans uh but you know i think i think overall i think i did better than that hotel now again i'm

not going to do better than like jolly reginald's you know grease cafe but you know i'm not expecting to do that most here's the thing most people are not going to jolly reginald's most most people are at home and they're like i made toast and i put beans on it and that's it that's all they did yeah all right i mean unless like you know they're like grandmothers like oh i cooked up a british breakfast here then you're like wow grandma maybe well like obviously it's gonna be good if you're winning any favors and friends with our accents by the way i've already made it listen i did like my bore thrills accent in my videos for years and people are already like i don't know if he's british new zealand or australia and i'm like i guess i'm just alternating between all three. Yeah, crikey.

Crikey. Main point being, all right, I'm not trying to win any awards here. I'm not trying to do better than your nine. Right? That's what they say, your nine. I know Benji's always like, nah, my nine. Or same. But, you know.

Are they interchangeable? Like one of them says it. I don know which One but you know what I gave It the old the old College try And now I want to see you do it Yeah I look you did great Thank you And I don't know that I'll be able to do

As well but I'm going to take all the feedback People gave you all the unwanted Feedback and I'm going to use it To hopefully succeed and impress them Also some well, but I'm going to take all the feedback people gave you, all the unwanted feedback, and I'm going to use it to hopefully succeed and impress them. Also, some people kept being like, where's the hash browns? I thought hash browns were an American thing.

They have hash browns on some of them sometimes. They're like little triangles that I've seen. They're like little triangle hash browns. I mean, I'll be real. If I was going to add a hash brown, I'd just go out to McDonald's, get a hash brown, and then add it to the plate and pretend that I made it.

I may just do that. I may just do that. Yeah. That's why I'm like, listen, all the ones I looked up online, they're like the fancy ones. They didn't have hash browns there. This one's got the black pudding.

Okay, maybe I should have used the back bacon, all right? I should have used the back bacon instead of the strip of bacon. But again, all right, it's bacon. What's the difference? Back bacon is more like the big, it's like Canadian bacon. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. It's more like a ham. I actually probably would have rather eaten the back bacon.

I think it's more like a slice of ham or something. I like that. But! Yeah! You made your version for you. That's it. I was even, I was gonna get fancy and do a little bit like the parsley on it, like some

of those things I showed you from last week with the breakfast. I was like, no, you know what? All these other British, they don't got any parsley or anything. I'm like, no, I'll go full sadness. No green. And you did it. It looked British to me.

If you got green on there, that's liveliness. There's no liveliness in England. It's just sadness and despair. None of the food is lively. So I was like, we got to stick to the traditions. So I did. And anyone who's like, we have plenty of lively food here. Indian.

No, no, no. That's like other people's food brought to England. It's like the British Museum where it's just a bunch of stolen things. Yeah, exactly. Exactly. So I'm excited to see what you do now. I'm excited to do it. Hopefully I'll have time this week to make it happen.

Fingers crossed. Anyway, hello, everyone. We had to take a cut there because someone was banging on the door to the office. I'm just going to tell the story now to you, Crandor, because it was incredible. All right. There is, in our workspace, the building that we're in, there are some people who live here. They just live here in this building. It's like a live-work space.

And one of the couples that lives here is an older couple. And the wife is this little short lady with black hair and big glasses. And she kind of looks like The You know Incredibles The like doctor scientist Lady Exactly like that And she

Is to say she's Snoopy Like and snoops around is Like that is an understatement There are times where people in the office are like She's looking in the window again because there's like a window leading to the outside in the hallway. And she'll like peer in and look and see what's going on. It's really weird. And then like I've seen her run up to, so the people who own the building are in this building as well.

And I've seen her like run up to them and do like the, oh my God, you won't believe what I just heard. Like that, so you know she's like You know she's 65 plus But still acts like she's 16 Oh yeah the neighborhood Watch yes And so and I think her husband's the one That is in charge of like Towing cars and stuff I don't

Needless to say Banging I like hear this banging on my door I literally have To pause the podcast to go walk over and see what's up. Open the door, and she's like, oh, it's so good you're here. I saw the lights were on. I'm like, okay. She's like, so packages have been getting stolen.

I'm like, I got an email about that. She's like, and I just want to make sure that you didn't pick up any packages. I'm like, what? She's like, I just want to make sure none of the packages ended up in here. I'm like, why would She's like, I just want to like, make sure none of the packages ended up in here. I'm like, uh, why would they end up in here? She's like, well, you know, people were saying they're stolen. I just want to make sure they weren't stolen. Maybe you accidentally picked them up. I'm like, why would I take a package that wasn't mine? She's like, I know I'm not accusing you, but like maybe if it, and I was like, do you want to come in and look around? She's like, no, no, I don't need to do that. Just, you know, if you picked up a package,

like I did not pick up a package. No one here picked it up. She's like no no I don't need to do that Just you know If you picked up a package She's like I did not pick up a package No one here picked up She's like okay I'm not saying you did But if it happened And I was just like Oh my god She's like

Just come with me really quick So I walk down the hall with her To the package room She's like as you can see Yesterday there were four packages Here today there's one So someone must have Taken those packages

I was like Maybe the people The packages were four Took them Here today there's one. So someone must have taken those packages. I was like, maybe the people the packages were for took them? She's like, I don't know. I'm just like, so are you accusing me? She's like, no, I'm just keeping you informed, letting you know that you should be aware. And I'm like, oh, okay. And then I just like walked back inside and locked the door and was like, all right. That's what that was about

i don't know what her problem is but she's just so nosy and like quintessential karen energy it's a lot it's a lot there's uh she's like the type of person where it adds up because her husband's the tow guy and then she's on the on the lookout like there's a car you need to tow. It's been parked there for exactly five minutes past. It's supposed to be gone by now. You can tow it. I just, I can't believe. I mean, I feel like they're retired. This is like her day.

This is what she does. Oh, yeah. This is how she occupies her time. Because we all were sending an email that was like, hey, someone's been stealing packages. So we changed all the codes. That's it. Like, that was it And then she was like I just want to let you know

That packages are I'm like yeah I and everyone Else I'm aware that this is what happened There's all Does she have like a dog she walks Oh my god a little tiny white poodle Thing yeah I knew it There's always the neighborhood watch woman They're always like in their

Like close to retired age or are retired. And they always walk their dog because it's like less suspicious when they're walking the dog. Like I'm not patrolling the neighborhood. I'm just walking my dog. Here I go. They do that. And then I've seen everywhere. I remember growing up.

We used to live by this one lady. She'd walk around and be like, you got to trim your tree. It's blocking the stop sign. And my parents be like, what? And they're like, they are i'll report you to the the neighborhood it's like what the shit so they would just like they just do that it's like walk around and like tell you how to live your life i uh hate that so much like i just i the thing is the people that own the property They They have a place here And they sometimes show up But a lot of the time it's their kids

That run the thing And the kids are like high all the time So they don't They get a paycheck because we're all paying rent Right And so they don't do anything Except get high in their apartment and hang out There's definitely a group of people in this complex that are, like, you know, they're in with the people that run the place, like that kind of vibe.

And so every once in a while I'll go by and I'll see the door open and they're all just in there. There's, like, a waft of smoke and they're hanging out. And I'm like, thank God I don't live here. I'd have to – thank God my hours are, like – at five I'm gone. Like, oh, thank God I don't live here. I'd have to, thank God my hours are like, at five, I'm gone. Like, oh, thank God, I don't have to care. Yeah, it seems like there's a lot of politicking and stuff. And I'm like, oh, boy. I hate that.

Like, you're having the, like, politics in, like, a local neighborhood. It's just, it's weird. It's not even the neighborhood. It's literally just the building In this building There are I'm going to say 30 units

And in those 30 units 20 of them are offices And then the rest The other 10 are like people kind of live here Kinda They own property but sometimes They're here and sometimes they're not I have no idea what goes on

But around me I think I mentioned this before Down the hall are the kids who are like 20 something Who are like yeah we have our new app And we have millions of dollars And I'm like oh my god And then next to us is I think like a Youth outreach program

And it's like an office for them And across from me is I'm 100% sure Oh, my God. And then next to us is, I think, like a youth outreach program. And it's like an office for them. And across from me is I'm 100% sure it is an esports team convinced of this. And then there's a production studio. And then there's these guys who do, like, poster work. So a lot of the posters designed for movies are in here. And so, like, that kind of place. It's like, you know, it's an Office space that's designed for like Creative types but

Also if you're creative type And you also need a place to live you could also live Here if you wanted to and Yeah I don't know it's It's fine but it feels like there's One little group of people that are like This is our unit And we hate it when people are

Different it's Yeah so I mean the neighborhood Is or the Like, this is our unit, and we hate it when people are different. It's, ugh. Yeah. So, I mean, the neighborhood is, or the office building is their neighborhood. That is what they patrol. Absolutely. Because everything else around here, the only other thing that makes this a neighborhood, everything else is apartments and other office buildings, and then there's one bar. And that bar is amazing.

It's great. At night, apparently they're only open anymore on Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday. That's it. And then Sunday during the day. I guess because of COVID stuff, they only open during those days. And they like, you know, it's all outdoors. And let me tell you, it's rowdy over there. I've seen some things.

There's nights where I've gone home late from the office. One time I was driving by and there's like an alleyway. And I saw things happen in that alleyway that I was like, damn, they nasty. It was wild. I was like, hold on now. Is that what I, yeah, that's what I think it is. So, yeah, it's drunks, man. Crazy thing happens here.

Are they having like an orgy in the alley? I mean, it was like almost there. It was very close to that. Jesus. What can I say? People be getting crazy. People do be getting crazy. Not me, though.

Definitely not me. People do be getting crazy Not me though Definitely not me People do be Yeah I again Two years now of COVID Have turned people insane Like truly insane I've had some conversations with people Where I'm just like What happened to you

There is Here's what I'm going to say There is a person Like, what happened to you? Here's what I'm going to say. There is a person that you and I both have followed for years and years and years on Twitter. All right. And this person will say she. She has gone insane. And I'm pretty sure you know who I'm talking about. I think I do, yeah.

She went crazy. And it only happened at the start. COVID till now, her entire personality has gone cuckoo bananas. And it's like, what happened to you? And I don't, you know, I'm not friends enough to care, but I'm friends enough that I follow her and I see the things she tweets. And I'm like, this is crazy. Like, you have become a crazy person. And, yeah, I finally had to mute where I was like, you know what? I'm not going to unfollow

you because I may have to work with you one day, but the things you're saying right now are insane and I just don't even want to be bothered. I don't want to be outraged by the wacky shit you're saying. I'm pretty sure that most people on Twitter also like just mute,

like at least 50% or more of the people they follow. Oh yeah. Oh yeah. I, I know for a fact I'm muted by a lot of people and I mute a lot of people. Yeah. Same. Same.

It's, you know, I mean, it's, it's all those things where you follow each other and you're like oh yeah you know out of like a a friendship thing or sometimes it's even just like a business card you know instead of exchanging business cards you're like hey we'll follow each other but then over time you kind of learn like you know what i don't really have a lot in common with this person

and then you're just like you know what i don't really like seeing their tweets i'm just gonna mute them because you don't want to like unfollow them because it's not like you don't like them it's just that's crazy by the way you don't that's so crazy that we are so like we don't really like seeing their tweets. I'm just going to mute them. Because you don't want to, like, unfollow them because it's not like you don't like them. That's crazy, by the way. That's so crazy that we are so like, well, you don't want to unfollow them because that's just rude. Even though it would be the simplest thing to do. I mean, the thing is, I don't, like, if I don't like someone, then I'll unfollow them. But if I still like somebody and I just don't want to see what they say on Twitter, I'll just mute them. I mean, I guess.

It seems like a hassle to me. I don't want to see what they say on Twitter. I'll just mute them. I mean, I guess. It seems like a hassle to me. I don't know. Man, yeah. Twitter is a weird ecosystem that I don't like, but I still have to use, and so I just deal with it. Some people, it's also they use Twitter as like a social networking thing, which I get it because it is an app for socializing, networking and everything, but it's like they have

an algorithm or a bot or a person that runs their Twitter that just responds to people. It's like if back in the day, it was like me, you, Dodger, and TB, and every time one of you made a tweet, I just hired someone to be like, good one, Jesse! Whoa, Dodger! And it's just like, do we need this every time someone says a thing?

Especially what really upsets me, and I get it. Like, I get it. But every time someone who's, like, in the 50 million or above YouTube range tweets anything, if you go look at the replies, it's everyone I would expect to reply and be like, ha, ha, ha, amazing. You're just like, This guy's not gonna Hang with you It's just not gonna happen

Don't say that It's just crazy to me Because it is a game And it's somehow been gamified Like everything You have to do it algorithmically I know for a fact That a lot of the people that you see

Who are the people who Tweet out photos of themselves or post pictures or whatever, their little friend group, they all reply to each other. Because it's like the synergy of algorithms and how like, well, I replied and someone clicked mine and it's like boop-a-doop-a-doop-a-doop and it's down the rabbit hole people go. And it's just, I hate it. This is also very much an old man yells at cloud thing. Yeah, but it sucks. Because nothing is genuine. Nothing on the internet is genuine. That's my problem.

It's not genuine. You just want the genuineness. You don't want the fake algorithmic, this is what we must do to increase viewer count, like that type of thing. Yes. I'd rather, you know, have a conversation with you where I have no idea where this conversation is going to go than know for a fact that people do things a certain way because a number system told them to do it, or because they have evidence that's like, well, if I respond at this time or post at this time, it'll... That's our business. I get that's our business. But it also is what's wrong with social media.

Social media has become a game for people, and you have to gamify it, and you have to play the game, and you have to... The attempt is to try to win. And I just want to like here's a meme I found and that was funny lol and yeah you can't do that anymore like you simply can't yeah it's

again this is why I just slowly keep trying to go away from Twitter and it's great the further I get yeah every so often we have a conversation about Twitter and it just upsets me even more that we are still talking about it. I wish one day someone would just pull the plug on the whole thing.

Just someone going to Jack's office and yank the plug out. I keep seeing people taking breaks now too. I remember when I was like, I need a break and now I feel like there's a whole bunch of people taking breaks. I'm going to not stream for two weeks. I'm not going to do this I need a break. And now I feel like there's a whole bunch of people taking breaks. They're just like, I'm going to not stream for like two weeks.

I'm not going to do this thing for like a week. And they're like, I'm going away. So I feel like everybody's burned out, especially if they've been around a while. Again, old man yells at cloud. I've become the old man. This is my cloud. And I'm yelling at the cloud that I'm on. So are you on the cloud?

I'm on the cloud. Are you looking down at the cloud that you're on and yelling at that cloud or are you on a cloud yelling at another cloud? No, I'm on one cloud yelling at another cloud and then there's also someone else. That's hypocritical. What about the cloud you're on? Is someone yelling at that cloud?

I'm yelling at that cloud too. Oh, so you're yelling at all clouds. I'm yelling at all the clouds. Old man yells at every cloud is you. Yeah. I've definitely hit all the clouds. Old man yells at every cloud is you. Yeah. No, yeah. I've definitely hit all the clouds. Well, all right then. That's a little bit better.

Stupid cloud. That cloud's going to drop me. Yeah. I think the biggest problem I have with everything that we do and everything in our industry is that it's sanitized for your protection kind of stuff you're not allowed to have fun you're not allowed to be creative and if you are um according to the algorithms that's terrible if you don't stream the same time every day and create the same content and build an audience off that content you are wrong and what's crazy is an article came out uh maybe two three days ago

and it was about um people who find success in life right and it said especially for creative types that success in creativity comes from experimentation everyone that they interviewed everyone they talked to even like the historical studies they did when people excelled at their comes from experimentation. Everyone that they interviewed, everyone they talked to, even like the historical studies they did, when people excelled at their craft, it's after a period of them being like, I don't know what to do.

I'm just going to like experiment and find something I love. And then they hit upon something that they nailed it. And from that point on, it was all success. And the business we're In does not allow you to Do that if you try to get creative

It will hurt you especially YouTube YouTube is Notorious for that and so If you take time off or if you Do less or like Even on even on Twitch if you take time off That means less people subscribe to you because they don't think you're gonna stream As much yeah like you Hurt yourself for Even on Twitch, if you take time off, that means less people subscribe to you because they don't think you're going to stream as much.

Yeah. Like, you hurt yourself for doing other things and creatively fulfilling yourself, which is the whole point of what being a creator of content is. It is insane. And it just upsets me so much that I see all these other people just, you know, marching along, doing the thing, oblivious to how it's slowly killing them. And it upsets me because, you know, again, old man yells at clout. There's nothing I can do. No one's going to listen to me, but it's just like, I see it. I see it as clear as day.

Now, I would argue that out of all the platforms still, I enjoy... I think YouTube's still one of my favorite ones. And I think... I don't know why. I think it's just because it's, like, kind of... Maybe it's because I got started with it. It's kind of, like, bite-sized fun thing. Like, I can still get creative. I think the best part about being involved with, like, various types of platforms,

like Twitch and youtube and podcast whatever is it allows you to do one of them more creatively instead of relying strictly on one so if you want experiment be like no i'm making new series or something or do this it allows you to do that because you have all these different legs to stand on while if you're like only a streamer only youtuber you're like i gotta do the same thing and if i go away from that that's not good one of our contemporaries will say one of our peers in the gaming space tweeted a thing the other day that was like, Hey, I don't know why as a streamer or YouTuber or whatever you would want to live in LA. It doesn't make any sense to me.

It sucks there. Like, that's why I moved to Texas, which, by the way, I don't know if Texas is the big move, but whatever. That's like California light at this point. Yeah, I was like, I don't know if Texas is the big move, but whatever. That's like California light at this point. Yeah, I was like, I don't know that I would go there. But yeah, I feel like I might not disagree. I might not agree with a lot going on in Texas, but also it's like, yeah, I moved to Austin, which is California light. You're totally right.

But it was like, so I don't understand why people would live in LA And I had to respond I was like I feel like maybe You have a limited view on this situation Right like From your point of view It's I want to be a streamer I am streaming I don't need to go anywhere

But that's because you have the benefit of being 20 something If you are not 20 something, if you're pushing 40 or you're 40 plus, or you're like on your way to 50 and you are a YouTuber or streamer, that might be a problem because the space is younger and younger. And so I can understand how a lot of people, especially in LA would want to,

you know, expand beyond streaming, get in the industry in a different way, you know, especially in LA, would want to, you know, expand beyond streaming. Get in the industry in a different way. You know, run a different business. You know, want to create shows. Like, for me, I have shows under my belt. I have scripts that we're writing. I have a game company.

I do so much more than just this. And at some point, you don't want to be the guy who's like 85 and your entire income is based on streaming. I'm not going to knock people who are 85 and stream for fun. Bless. Those are some of my favorites. I love watching like an old man destroy RuneScape or whatever.

Like that's lovely. But what I'm saying is you shouldn't have to rely on that in your old age. Like there is no – what's the retirement plan for a streamer? No one talks about that because everyone's young. But like what's the retirement plan? What do you do? Sure, if you're Mr. Beast or if you're Ninja or whatever, then you have a retirement plan.

It's called the millions of dollars you have in the bank. But everyone else, if you're like, man, I'm doing so great, I get 200, 300 views a stream what is your retirement plan well my retirement plans i'm not stopping well bless your soul i already live like a retired person i'm just gonna keep doing what i do i'm gonna make my breakfast go to the gym but what if you can't make a video comes a time where you can't? Why not? What if you lose your eyesight?

Then I'll just stream without eyesight. Touche. You know what? Touche. Then I'll be like, what's up, guys? Did them be playing this game? And they'll just be like, wow, this guy is terrible. It's like, what?

I can't see. And they're like, oh, all right. And then I'll just keep playing. I mean, it can't be any worse than I already am. I was about to say, no one would notice the difference. That's what I'm saying. Now, I feel like not everybody could do that. Like, if you're an esport person, they're probably going to be like, this guy sucks now.

But me? Like, if anything, like, wow, he's gotten better somehow. This is weird. Yeah. I just, you know, I'm concerned for the future. That's all. I just want people to be okay. And if I have to be that guy on the corner shouting at clouds, so be it.

So be it. Yeah. No, you know what? I got you. I understand. I wish people would understand me, Crandor, but they don't. This is trying to segue into Babbel. They don't understand me.

People are back in schools and work and stuff, so the vacation slowed down. But it's still bopping. It's still hopping. It's still popping. It's still whopping.

Wait. Oh, favorite place on Earth, Tijuana. Oh. They named a place James Earl Jones? I'm going to see if there is a place called James Earl Jones. First thing that came up was Ames, South Dakota. Probably maybe where he was born? I don't know.

Maybe. There's also Baton Rouge. Was he born in Baton? You know what? He could be born anywhere for all we know. There's a Yazoo City? Well, that's where we're going. Yazoo City? Is this Missouri? Mississippi. city well that's where we're going yazoo city is this missouri mississippi uh y-a-z-o-o yazoo mississippi i'm on it right now yeah all right yeah uh 83 degrees over in Yazoo. Feels like 91.

29.89 pressure inches. 77% humidity. 10 mile visibility. 0 out of 10 on the UV index. 75 on the dew point. 5 mile an hour winds going west. And you got a 648 AM sunrise. 701 PM sunset.

With a moon phase of a waxing gibbous. Look at the 10-day. You got 72 tonight, 30% chance of rain. Monday, a.m. showers, 88. Tuesday, p.m. thunderstorms, 88. Wednesday, 77, partly cloudy. Thursday, 77, sunny. Friday is 80 and sunny.

Saturday is 83, mostly sunny. Sunday, sunny at 84. And then just a lot of sun in the low 80s. Pretty solid over in Yazoo. I went to Yazoo, to the Yazoo Convention and Visitors Bureau. They have a convention center. But I don't know that that's true. Because I'm looking at it, and the place that's the convention center on the map is next to a funeral home?

Oh. Yeah. Maybe it's a dollar tree. Needless to say, this seems like a very small town. They do have a Wendy's, though. They have a Wendy's next to the old Double Quick. Oh, yeah. It looks like they got 11,000 people. They have a bunch of, like, colored buildings.

Like, there's a green building, a yellow building, a pink building, a blue building. And that's, like, all I see when I go to images. I mean, tall is a relative term, I guess. They also got the Blue Front Cafe. There's a bunch of people out by there. What? No way! Crandor.

What? Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Okay. So, I was looking at the... How do I show you this map? How do I get you to this page? All right.

View larger map. Oh, my God. All right. Here's Yazoo City. I'm sending this to you right now. I was like, Yazoo City? It looks like Yazoo City is. There's something wrong with it.

Like, it looks cloudy. I've never seen a map on Google Earth look this cloudy. Like, something's wrong with it. And then I started to move over And I was like wait The clouds are coming from somewhere And then if you scroll in Between Ward Street East Broadway and Jefferson

Is a literal house fire And there's All of these fire engines Putting out a house fire live on Google Earth. What? I've never seen this before in my life. This is insane. Yeah, look at that.

There's a fire right there. The satellite captured the fire, and the fire is covering the town. Oh, my God. This is insane. Yeah, I've never seen this. It's fascinating to see how far the smoke spread is up into the clouds. It literally blocks the town. Yeah.

And then if you take the little drop-in guy. Is there a street view? Yeah, and there's no fire. So that's before the fire. Or maybe it's after the fire. No, it has to be before. There's no way they'd rebuild the entire house. Yeah, there's no way.

Yeah, wow. This is kind of sad because this area, it looks like a very quiet community. And if anything, it is 100% this place burnt down. Yeah, oh my god. This is crazy. That's just... Wow. I can't believe that's actually on the Google Maps.

That is... That's insane. Yeah, that's really nuts. What's sad is I think it's this house That looks like It has I think it's the house that has like the Looks kind of like It has like a spire in it

Oh yeah I think it is No never mind it's not even remotely Maybe Or is that the one across the street 528 is the one that burnt down Uh Uh Or is that the one across the street? 528 is the one that burnt down. I'm looking for this.

This is very important to me. 528. Yeah, 528 was... It's the Spire House. Wow, that's a beautiful home, too. Oh, that's so very upsetting. Yeah, what the shit? That's crazy. Wow.

I've never seen anything like that before in my life. Not once. That's crazy they caught that on Google Earth. Wow. You know they catch weird stuff on Google Earth all the time, but this, I've never seen a fire From like Satellite orbit

Of just a Like I've seen forest fires But I've never seen One single home on fire And like Wow that's crazy Yeah No

And for us to just Randomly find it In Yazoo In Yazoo? This all started From James Earl Jones Thanks Thanks Darth Vader That's the weather He was like zoo and yeah this all started from james earl jones thanks thanks darth vader

that's the way he was like if you go to yazoo they will come apparently there's also an ancient artifact discovered in a stomach of a yazoo alligator what was the ancient artifact? Let's see. Some guy was looking through alligator stomachs from Yazoo. It looks like James Starnes, Director of Geology and Surface Mapping for the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality, examined a photograph of the findings, identified what believed was an arrowhead as an atlatl dart point made in 5 to 6 000 bc

so the alligators like ate some 5 000 year old thing and more than that 5 000 bc so that's at least 7 000 years old yeah seven, 7,000, 8,000. Mama mia. That's crazy. That alligator. Damn. So the alligators, like other animals such as birds and other reptiles, are known for ingesting grit and rocks to help with digestion. So I guess they just eat rocks and stuff and it helps their digestion. Trying to see what the restaurants are in the area.

Number one best reviewed restaurant is Tom's on Main. Looks like a po' boy place. And there's Clancy's. That's burgers. My favorite one is P. Rue's Cajun Mud Bugs and Shrimp. I love that. No, that's a good one Oh wow the best reviewed place but it only has two reviews

Is Thelma's Kitchen Thelma's Kitchen What do they got there I mean the only photo they had There's one photo and it's of I can't even tell It's some type of salad I can't tell if it's coleslaw or potato salad

That's how blurry the photo is. This was our favorite restaurant on our 10-day road trip to New Orleans from Michigan. Thelma's Kitchen is the real deal. The food was all homemade and cooked to perfection. The collard greens were the best I ever had. And the grit stuffing was absolutely delicious. I could make a meal out of it alone and be in heaven. The catfish and chicken was breaded and friend, I assume he means fried,

and friend to perfection. Our six-year-old absolutely loved the macaroni and cheese. They gave her a free cup of punch to go, made her day. We could tell you all about Thelma's popularity. The locals probably not known tourists Taurus. It's pretty great. For being popular, it only has two reviews. This guy says

get the pecan pie. Wait. Okay. The photo that I thought was either potato salad or coleslaw is of the pecan pie. Wait, what? I gotta see this. Open image in new tab.

This is the photo. Imagine a small version of this. Okay. From that, click it. It looks like it's in a cup. It looks like it's a salad. Yeah, first reaction. If you just glance at that, it does look like coleslaw.

That's what I'm saying And then you click on it and it's literally like A cup version of pecan pie Yeah, it's like how, you know, like some restaurants They do those like little fancy desserts Where they like put it in a little tube A trifle is what it's called That's what it's called, a trifle?

Yeah Trifle I don't know if it's spelled, yeah Trifle, T-R-I-F-L-E Trifle? Yeah. Trifle? I don't know if it's spelled. Yeah. Trifle. T-R-I-F-L-E. Trifle. Yeah, they do like trifle, but they do like little smaller versions. There's like a little square rectangle type there or whatever. Right?

Yeah. This one, this is just in like a random cup. Yeah, it looks like a cup they put 90% of their food in, which probably goes to say that it's actually very good. You know what I mean? It probably is. Like if you're a restaurant where you've got like everything served in one cup and it's like mama's house, you know that food's good.

You know it's good. Yeah. She doesn't care about the presentation. She's just like, put it in the cup and eat it. Yeah. I spent all night cooking. What do you want me to do? Make it look pretty for you?

Yeah. Hell yeah. I know that stuff's good. Well, there you go. Yazoo City. That's there you go Yazoo City That's the weather for Yazoo City Alright, let's go to sports Sports

Big sports day We had some NFL football happen We had the Carolina Panthers beat the Saints, Bears beat the Bengals Browns beat the Texans Rams beat the Colts. Broncos beat the Jaguars, who are now 0-2 without Minshew. Buffalo beat Miami.

35-0. New England beat the Jets. San Francisco beat Philadelphia. Probably because Philadelphia didn't start Minshew. Raiders beat the Steelers. And the Cardinals beat the Vikings who missed the last second field goal. Classic Vikings.

Tampa Bay beat Atlanta. And Dallas kicked the last second field goal to beat the Chargers. And just now the Titans beat the Seahawks in overtime. Baseball we're getting down to the end. I think there's only like a week left of baseball.

And Tampa Bay in first place in the East. You got the White Sox first place in the Central. Astros in the West. Braves in the East, but only by a game and a half over the Phillies. Brewers in the Central. And the Dodgers and the Giants are battling out in the West, but they're both going to make the playoffs. So in terms of wildcard, that's the big thing. and the Dodgers and the Giants are battling out in the West, but they're both going to make the playoffs.

So in terms of wild card, that's the big thing. You got Boston a game up on the Blue Jays, and then the Yankees a game and a half back of the Blue Jays and the Red Sox. Then you've got the Athletics two games back as well. Over in the National League, you got the Dodgers in the wild card, or the Giants, whatever. Then you got the Cardinals sitting in the other spot with the Phillies and the Reds three back and the Padres three and a half back. And it's going to be some wild and wacky baseball coming at you live.

And then hockey and basketball are going to be starting up in about a week or two. Can't wait for that. I'm actually excited for hockey. So that should be good. Yeah. I love me some hockey. All right, my dude. Let's talk weird fact of the day.

Weird fact of the day. Here's a good one. All right. Chewing gum boosts concentration. What? That's right. Next time you're having trouble focusing focusing you might want to reach for gum 2013 study in the british journal of psychology found that subjects who chewed gum while taking

part in a memory challenge were able to stay focused for longer periods of time than those who did not chew gum okay now is that like maybe the people that were just had good memories felt like chewing gum? Maybe they just, they had more, like, energy. They got, like, I gotta chew gum. I gotta get this energy out. Like, I don't know. I don't know. I don't know.

Maybe it's because the gum, you know, it's like a, I don't know. It, like, keeps your mind occupied you know how sometimes you're like if you're you like click a pen right like that's the thing i do often where i click a pen when i'm concentrating on something because like you know like spigot spinners that's not at all what it's called you know spigot spinner, the Jessica Cox version. It goes in reverse. Yeah, but, like, you have something to keep your, like, your focus, right? Yeah. And so you can focus on other things, maybe, I guess. That's how I actually have that with ASMR.

Like, if I'm doing something like writing, I actually write better if I turn on, a background noise like an asmr thing or like whatever because it helps me just uh it like gets rid of that part of your brain where it's just like what else is going on right now exactly it's just just focus so yeah maybe that's what it is um either way a little interesting fact maybe um that's your fact well i liked it that was a good fact i i mean i don't understand it, but I get it. You know what I mean? I get you. I got you. What's our big news story?

Big news story of the day. Yeah? This one's big. Actually, first up, everybody was linking us a thing that talked about Nick Cage saying he's never going to retire, speaking of retirement. That's the best news I've ever heard.

So I had to throw that one out there. But this one is big. Florida Man has returned. Florida Man skips lines at Disney World with stolen Disney issued iPad. Wait, what? I didn't know. Wait. So did he say he was

an employee? Alright, never mind. I'm going to shut up and just let you talk. I love this. Nobody likes long lines at theme parks. However, it was apparently enough of a headache for one Florida man to use a stolen Disney employee iPad to jump lines at one parks however it was apparently enough of a headache for one florida man to use a stolen disney employee ipad to jump lines at one of the parks renan carletto 30 allegedly used this illicit technique to give an unauthorized tour of disney's hollywood studios in june he also used the ipad to allow him in a group he was traveling with the ability to cut in front of lines at the park. Carletto.

Oh. He did the thing that, you know when Maker used to let us go to Disney? Oh, yeah. And we'd have a tour guide, and the tour guide would be able to get you places. Yeah. And you could ride whatever ride you wanted multiple times. Yeah, that was great. He got that thing.

He got the iPad from those people. Oh, that adds up. Or he was one of them, and this was his, like, I quit. But he kept the iPad. Well, of course, yeah. Carlotto would have gotten away with it, too, if it weren't for that meddling mouse. I don't like that. What are they, like, oh, jeez! I found you, Carlito!

Come on! Get the investigators! Come on, gang! Let's break his kneecaps! The Mouse Mafia. According to WESH2, an official Disney investigator, which is apparently a job that exists.

I'm sorry, what? Yes, an official Disney investigator. Hold on, who is it? WESH2? WESH2, which I guess is the news station. Oh, okay. I was like, what the hell? I was like, someone's name was WESH2? Because that's kind of awesome. It sounds like a future name. WESH2 to WESH1. WESH2 to W that's kind of awesome. It sounds like a future name. Wesh2 to Wesh1.

Wesh2 to Wesh1. Copy. Was alerted several unauthorized overrides on reservations in the employee exclusive Walt Disney World app. So this dude's just like looking at his thing. He's like, somebody's doing something they shouldn't be doing.

Do you think he was in a room where lights and sirens went off when it was like, someone's using the app? I don't know about lights and sirens but i just picture one of those things with like 500 monitors on the wall and he's just at the thing like and then one of them just kind of goes like beep beep and like kind of lights up it's like something's wrong here and i would have been funnier if there were lights and sirens. There's like a Mickey Mouse going like, alert, alert. Someone's using the app. That would be funnier. You're right.

All right. Good, good, good. Okay. All right. We'll come by. He's in that room. And then as soon as that happens, it lights up. And that's when the lights and sirens go off.

And Mickey Mouse kicks the door in. And he's just like, what's going on in here? Do we have a problem? He's like, we do got a problem. Somebody's been using the iPad. And he's like, oh, not again. Mickey pulls out his keyblade. Mickey's going to have to hurt a bitch.

Yeah. Pluto, get in here. He's like all decked out and worn. He jumps on his back. Let's ride, pal. He's got a collar with grenades strapped to it. He opts on and starts riding. Someone's like, whoa, there goes Mickey.

He doesn't look too happy. The investigator then found Carletto giving his illicit tour as he was cutting in front of a line for a ride. The wannabe tour guide surrendered the iPad to authorities who let him off with an official warning. Oh shit, that's when Mickey came in. He's like, there's no warnings around here! Get him! Authorities are still unsure

how exactly Carlotto obtained the employee iPad, though he did claim to investigators that the device was given to him by his boss named Tony, whose identity is still unknown. Tony. Interesting. I wonder.

He definitely stole it, but like. Oh, yeah. It would be amazing if there was a guy named Tony who was just there. He's like, I didn't give it to him. He's like, I can't take chances to the lagoon with Tony. What if there's like an underground thing where like this guy named Tony who just sells these like Disney things. He's like, yeah,

you want to cut lines? I can make you cut lines. You know that's the case. I can't believe that someone thought they would get away with this. Yeah, I know. I guess he did once, but once he did it twice, that's like, oh. It adds a level of espionage and intrigue

that you normally wouldn't expect out of a theme park, let alone from the happiest place on Earth. That's it. Still don't know who Tony is. Yeah, Tony's the mystery. Tony's the link, I think, between a lot of our stories. I think so. Mickey's just like, not Tony again.

I'll get that, Tony. I'd be willing to say that Tony's the link. Yeah. There's something going on with Tony. We got to figure it out. I'd watch a series of Mickey Mouse trying to fight Tony and stop him from using his illegal devices to make the park the worst place. Cut the baloney, Tony.

What was that voice? Cut the baloney, Tony. Mickey, what happened to you don't worry about me kids it's like because of a it's like boys we got tony problems then goofy comes out with like brass knuckles he's like tony you can't i'll take care of him this time. I like this version of the mouse. I think this version of Disney is enjoyable. Yeah, that'd be great. Yeah. That'd be fun.

Huge fan. And Donald Duck comes out and he just... Wait, is it Daffy Duck or Donald Duck? Or wait... Donald Duck. Daffy's Warner Brothers. Oh, that's right. Yeah, Donald Duck.

Is he the one who's just like That's exactly who he is Yeah and then he comes out And he's like And that's it Yeah Well that is it for us Thank you so much for listening
