In the morning. Broadcasting live, live, live, live, live. In 4-hour recording studios. Recorded. Wake your ass up. It's Cox and Crandall in the morning. Hello everybody, welcome back to another exciting episode. You know what, I'm not starting over. It's Cox and Crandall.

Hi everyone, welcome. That was your second start over too. I can't, I don't know what's going on today. My mouth moving slower than my brain. That's been the last couple times. I don't know what's going on with you. Well, you know what? Sometimes I get a little excited

and I just start shaking. I'm like, words, you know. You're just so excited. You're just sitting there vibrating. You're like, oh, it's Cox and Crenn door time. Here we go. I like the show. I have a fun time. I have a fun time, too.

What are you... Let me have this. It's all I got, really. It's all I got. That's true. Those other podcasts you do, terrible times. Horrible times. Those are trash. Yeah, they suck. That's the fun time. How's it going?

Dude, I have two things. Well, first off, before I get into the thing I really want to talk about, I must suggest to you and anyone listening right now, check out, well, first I guess you have to go get the Paramount Network or whatever it is, Paramount Plus. Yeah, I have that because I've been watching Spongebob on it. Paramount Plus is, it's alright, it's not great, but on it is a show called The Offer. It's a limited run series. It is about the making of The Godfather.

I cannot stress this enough. It's so good. Miles Teller Is the main character He's like the producer He's the dude from Whiplash He's our favorite character from the Divergent movies I love that dude Great actor, very good

Dan Fogler who is the like Truly the only Likeable character in the new Harry Potter movies He's like the fat baker dude Love that guy Very funny. He's incredible. He plays Francis Ford Coppola. He's incredible.

Matthew Goode, who is like a very British actor. I'm talking about like Downton Abbey British. He's in a bunch of TV shows and movies. I think he was in The Watchmen. I think he was Ozymandias in The Watchmen movie. Anyway, this was in the Watchmen. I think he was Ozymandias in the Watchmen movie. Anyway, this

dude in this show literally plays the head of Paramount and he nails the voice. It is crazy, dude. His voice is like, hey, baby. I can't believe how much I enjoy that character.

Everything about this, it's so good. Like, Giovanni Rubisi plays, like, the mob guy. And then, like, that dude who's the bad guy in every damn TV show ever plays, like, a crazy Austrian man. It is so incredibly good. And I say this because while I watch it, everything that goes on, if you are listening and you want to know what it's like to be a producer If you want to know what a producer does Like Jesse, when you make games, what do you do?

Honest to god, this show is like The realest shit I've ever seen More importantly, if you want to know what it takes To get shows done Oh my god There's some moments where I'm like, that has happened to me dog Oh, it's incredible I love it

It's like, you know, in the 70s, but whatever. It's still fantastic. That reminds me of how you, like, name all these actors and stuff, right? Reminds me of our movie night last night. Yes. You're just going, like, dude, it's, like, Jiminy Christmas and, like, Bobby Bob and, like, Anne Franklin. Oh, while we were watching Clue? Yes.

And you were like, I don't know who any of these people. My very part is Tim Curry. It's Tim Curry, and you go, from Home Alone 2. Yeah, that's where I knew him from. Home Alone 2. Here's the thing. He's great in Home Alone 2. He's good in that.

But he's good in everything. Tim Curry is great. I just thought it was really funny that we watched Clue filled with very famous actors, and you were like, oh, that's that guy. Oh, and that's Doc Brown. It was great. I loved it. Enjoyed it tremendously.

I was like, and that's the maid is the wife in Wayne's World of the arcade guy. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I was like, yeah, you know. Those were the ones I knew. That was a good movie, though. I liked it. Well, this is why when I described the offer, I was like, you know, Miles Teller from the Divergent movies. Not from the fact that he was just in Top Gun, not from the fact that he's in plenty of movies, but he was in Divergent and we know Divergent.

Oh, yeah. I know that kind of stuff. So I know my audience. That's I'm I know my I know my Audience that's true I I must suggest Watching it it is like very very good And it's a limited series is only 10 Episodes long I think I'm on episode 6 Now it definitely there's moments while

Watching it I've been inspired to be Like damn I want to create stuff again I Want that passion to like make a thing Oh want to create stuff again. I want that passion to, like, make a thing. Oh, yeah, it's very good. I love it. That's what I was doing with my YouTube stuff. I got that spark again. That's why I was doing more pointless top tens, you know?

That's what I'm saying. Yeah, it's a very good show about creative types. And there's a few really good choice lines about about just being in the industry and i was like oh that hits too close to home oh it's very nice even though you know again they're talking about movies you can translate that to anything in entertainment really it is very on point main point being i don't know any actors or actresses well that is the main point but you do know crazy. That's true. And let me tell you some crazy.

Okay. So I wrote down some notes because maybe at the beginning of the year, I don't know when it officially opened. But near my apartment, they tore down a bunch of buildings. They used to be either like really crappy apartments or I think at one point there was a um like an old Shinto temple or something you know cool stuff they had a bunch of cool stuff and they tore it down to make way for apartments anyway one of those places that got torn down they built a hotel on it and so now very close to me at one of the corners near near where my is, is a hotel. And I can tell you safely, since it opened, which I think was earlier this year, that corner is crazy town USA.

It is clearly people from out of town, drunk as hell, acting the fool. And it is never not funny. And so this is just since Friday. This is just incidents since Friday. So today, while coming here, we're going to go backwards. We're going to go backwards in time. Today, while coming to the office to record, there were three ladies on bikes, drunk as hell, unable to operate their bikes, trying to cross the intersection. One lady, as the light goes green for me to drive, they try to cross with a

no-walk sign. So already I'm like, oh, come on. One lady falls off her bike, and then her friends are laughing. And then I'm just like, what? A guy behind me honks. They think I honk, start screaming at my car.

Yelling like, you're gonna kill us! You don't care! L.A. oh my god! They're goosing their minds while trying to help their friend up. And then like a dude you know, just like a crossfit dude, just like a fit dude running. Yeah.

Runs up and he's like, is there a problem here? I'm like, no, there's no problem. They're just drunk I think and I'm waiting. And he's like, yeah, well you should keep waiting. We have the right I think, and I'm waiting. And he's like, yeah, well, you should keep waiting. We have the right of way. And I literally point to the don't walk sign. And he looks at me and he goes, I bet it said walk a minute ago. I was like, it doesn't matter.

It doesn't say it now. He was like, whatever. So he goes to help the women up. And then he, like, escorts them across to the corner. And then he's like, ladies, have a pleasant day. And they're like, thank you, sir. And then as I pulled away, I saw the woman fall over again, and I was like, I hate this town.

What time is this? This would have been 5 p.m. Okay, that checks out Yeah Then yesterday While I was leaving to go out At that same street corner Yeah

There was a dude in a speedo Like ripped Like ripped You know that kind of muscle where if he moves You see more muscle that kind of thing Ripped and he was purposefully Doing that muscle movement thing Like he was kind of leaning backwards

A little bit trying to show off his like 24 pack And he's stretching at the corner And he's moving his body And he's like And he's stretching While at the same time listening to some sort of music And singing the lyrics

I think he was singing I don't know what was going on And a bunch of touristy ladies from the hotel walk out And he just like starts flexing in front of them Like flexing And they do not even care They just walk by And so you know

It's a long light so I'm just sitting there waiting. They walk by. A woman who, again, very attractive, runs by him. She's on a run, I guess, or a jog or whatever. I realize he's just standing at the corner. He's not going anywhere. He's had a walk sign for some time. He's not going anywhere.

He starts flexing for her. And she looks at him and like scoffs and keeps running. I was like, dude has no game. This is terrible. And so he's like, and then on my side of the street is an old couple. And the old man looks at this guy and goes um this is what i wrote down while i was i did this is my voice to text translation so pardon me um guy still trying to flex on her to get her attention she runs away does not stop then he turns to the street because it looks so weird

and begins to try and flex like oh i, I was just flexing and stretching while waiting to cross the street. Except the street crosswalk has now turned from walk to don't walk, so he's just standing there awkwardly. Right. It was at this time that the old couple next to me, the man says, that ain't all that impressive. The old man and his wife, and the wife is like checking him out

And the old man is like All that impressive And that's one street corner And then I drove off So that's one street corner But that's not all Because Oh yes

Because The night before As I was coming home From hanging out with friends at 1 a.m. Right. On that street corner. I can't believe. This place is crazy.

A dude was just standing there with nunchucks. Like practicing with nunchucks. What? I'm telling you. At 1 a.m., he was just out there with nunchucks. And when I got to my apartment, this is what I wrote down so I'm telling you. At 1 a.m., he was just out there with nunchucks. And when I got to my apartment, this is what I wrote down so I'd remember this. 1 a.m., dude on the street with nunchucks?

Practicing, question mark? I drove around him rather than stop because it seemed like the sensible thing to do. I was a little worried Didn't know why there was a guy Standing on the corner in the street With nunchucks like whirling them But I figured it's better to keep going Than stop and ask

It was definitely better to keep going 100% So I kept going And I figured I would let you know And that corner has consistently been One of the craziest things Ever since that hotel opened. I'm telling you.

It is crazy. And so the best way to describe this is the hotel is on one side. And on the other side is that brand new apartment complex. And I think I talked about this a little bit ago, whenever this was, where when I was looking for a new apartment, these just opened up. I went to go look. And they are smaller than where I live and, I don't know, four times as expensive. The one that I went to go look at, I think I said that the bathrooms are the same size as the bedroom, and I couldn't figure out why. It's a huge – I was like, this place is crazy.

$6,000 for a one bedroom apartment What? I know dude I couldn't figure out I can't figure out who would live there I'm like why would anyone pay this amount of money for an apartment Place is packed Place has people living there

And so I'm convinced that It is the combination of Filthy rich people with too much More money than sense living next to a hotel filled with drunk-ass tourists who are trying to go to the beach and shit. And that is the perfect combination for insanity. That corner is madness. Every time I go by there, there's something weird to look at. On Saturdays, there's a farmer's market nearby.

That's when it goes off. That's when it gets real weird. On Thursdays, there's food trucks that show up nearby, and it's like a big food truck stop, and there's like five or six food trucks. Telling you. It's constantly crazy. Constantly crazy. It's always the farmer's markets.

It's so weird, dude. Every time I drive by there, I'm mesmerized by the weird thing I see. Like the other day, this lady was trying to cross the street with her dog, and her dog would not come across the street because her dog kept trying to pee. So she's pulling her dog as it's peeing a straight line across the street. And some guy's like, you shouldn't treat your dog like that. And the woman's like, you don't know what's good for my dog.

And he's like, it's not that. And she goes, shut up, hippie. And keeps walking. I was like, she's called someone a hippie? Who does that? Who's doing that? Mind you, dude did not look like a hippie. Dude looked like a business investment banker.

It was like zero hippie to be found. Yeah. That's it. It's the craziest corner I've ever seen. I can't. I'll keep you updated. It's wild. Yeah, that's a crazy corner.

They should just rename it. The crazy corners? Crazy corners. Well, the apartment complex across the street from that. A long time ago, I worked on a project with a woman who was like the producer of the project and she lived in that apartment complex and i was like what is that place like every time i drive by there it's got a real weird vibe she's like oh yeah everyone who lives there is a divorcee i'm like what she's like yeah like 90 of the apartments are filled

with like 40 to 50 year olds who are divorced and they're all trying to like hook up with each other it's really weird I'm like why do you live there and she's like because that's what I'm after and I was like ah okay well that's weird like alright you do you so now I know that apartment across the street is just old getting it on Turf so that's cute Yeah That's uh That's crazy corners Crazy corners it's pretty crazy And then the other corner Is they were doing construction there For a long time on the sewer lines or something

So at night whenever there was Uh like Construction done during the day Smelled like poo poo at night, whenever there was construction done during the day, it smelled like poo-poo at night. It was awful. Big old poo-poo. It was bad. For a while, I was like, I need to move. This place sucks.

They finally completed it, so it's not an issue anymore. But for a while, I was like, I need to get out of here. LA, what's going on? But I looked. Like I said, I looked. I can't find any place that's better My apartment is pretty solid The price and the

It has vaulted ceilings You can't find that, that's hard to find Vaulted ceilings and one and a half bathrooms Come on, come on I can't do better, I can't do better That's true, if you want that in other LA Spots, it's probably an extra like $1500 It's super

expensive. One of the apartments I went to go look at, it was a two bedroom. I like the idea of two baths because one is Jesse's bathroom and one everyone else can go take a poop in. Every place I went, you had to get two bedrooms for two baths. I was like, okay.

Every time, it was like $8,000. I was like okay and every time it was like eight thousand dollars like get out what no I'm all right I don't even need I don't even like people that much I don't need people to come over well ridiculous this city I've said it before I'll say it again if I didn't have to live here for all the different weird business stuff i do i would in a heartbeat move somewhere to the midwest and i could live off the podcasts that's true like our like our diary yeah the me undies stuff let me tell you i could just be like hey yeah thanks me undies we do uh just do two podcasts a week yeah we'd do great double double that stuff up i think we'd be fine yeah yeah 100 percent you can just have a giant house in like kentucky or something i don't know but then what would my

stories be like today i went and i saw the woods nature's beautiful anyway i got some crazy shit that happens there's crazy shit that happens in the woods. You kidding me? Yeah, but that would be like today I was out in the woods and a man covered in moss threatened to kill me. That's practically the same as the corner. You're right. You're right. And it's like, man, that'd be crazy. Some moss man attacked me.

Anyway, here in L.A., a nunchuck man swung around and someone threatened to kill me. He didn't threaten anything. He was just in the street swinging nunchucks at 1 a.m. And he could have been practicing for all we know. It's true. He could have been practicing for something. Yeah.

He had a big nunchuck tournament the next day and he couldn't sleep. He's like Karate Kid. He was outside practicing at 1 a.m. preparing. sleep. He's like Karate Kid. He was outside practicing at 1am preparing. Now the fact that he didn't have a shirt on, you know, whatever. There's also like numerous other cities that are cheaper than LA. California is great. I like the vibe. I could go. The problem is I go to New York, but New York has no apartments. People in New York are fist fighting for apartments. New York's just the LA East Coast. Yeah, but I love LA East Coast.

New York is a vibe. If I was in LA, I'd be in New York. Here's the thing. I'd be in Chicago, but I couldn't live out of the city. I'd have to be downtown. Yeah. You are a downtown person. I'm a downtown cat. What can I say?

I'm a city rat. I know what I am. Speaking of which, I was going to rant about something, alright? Okay, hit me. So, I was at the grocery store, alright? This is a grocery store rant? What is this? And I brought this up the other day. I said I had to rant

about this. You did, and you said I'm going to save it for the podcast. I've been waiting. So the one thing I've noticed, I've seen this all the time. And I was like pulling into a parking spot right next to it. There's a shopping carts. And I was like, how? How do people just leave a shopping cart in the parking spot? How do people just leave a shopping cart in the parking spot?

I think it's the same mentality as people who leave trash places and assume someone will handle it. It's not my responsibility to handle this. I can leave this garbage on the ground because someone else is getting paid to do it, and it's on them, not me. It's like the kid in elementary school who would, like, leave crap on the floor next to his desk and be like, the janitors get paid to clean it. That kind of asshole. That's true. The thing is, like, okay, the thing is, the cart's there. It's literally, like, five feet, maybe ten feet away from, like, the cart rack thing.

Like, you're telling me you can't go, like, maybe I'll just push it over the cart rack like 10 feet. Like, are you kidding me? Like you can't go 10 feet with a cart and push it. You just push it through the entire grocery store. You can't push 10 more feet. I'm not sure when I made the decision, but I know that you have to make the active decision that I always return my carts. Unless there's like someone picking up the carts and they literally point to me like,

hey, I got that for you. I'll be like, okay. I always walk my cart back up. And I don't know why I decided to do that. I don't know when in my life I said this is the way I'm doing things. But I always do it all the time. Yes, I do too. But I know I couldn't have been like that always.

Because I remember being younger and just pushing the cart into the curb. You know what I mean? I guess maybe it's just a maturity thing. That may be it. I don't know. It's maturity. I mean, because obviously there's like 50-year-olds that are still immature. Yeah.

But it's just the fact of the matter. You can just push it 10 feet. It's one thing if it's a cart and it's like super far away from the cart rack thing maybe then they're like I gotta push it all the way over there it's like barely like a few steps but you can't take just a few more

steps I think that's what bothers me so much with it well why I mean was it a lot like if it's one cart that's just one it's like two carts so i don't know if it was two people separate carts or if it's one person two carts or what it was but i mean i've seen it all the time like there's always like a cart out there no matter where you go i feel like you can also judge a person based on that like if you if you're on a date or like you're

you know you do something you go to like a place and then your date leaves the cart there that's a strike strike three get them out i i would say that it's on the same level as people who are rude to a waiter or waitress yeah exactly if you're an asshole i'm like nah there's there's certain things and that's those are the red the red flags. Those are some bright red flags. All right? That's not even like, I guess that could be one of the things where like, oh, maybe they'll change. But like, probably not.

They're probably not going to change. Well, so I typed in, why do people leave carts? And what I got has nothing to do with shopping carts and everything to do with online shopping carts, which I now have information about online shopping. It has nothing to do with why people leave actual shopping carts, but I do now know that 80% of retail shoppers abandon purchases added to their carts. People will go to buy a thing and then be like, nah, when they purchase online stuff. Like, I get that. And there's a ton of websites about that, apparently.

I guess that's online shopping is a huge thing. But leave shopping carts maybe in parking lot? In instances where there is no rental system, people may leave their carts stranded for some of the following reasons. Their receptacle is too far from where they parked. They have a child with whom they do not want to leave unattended. The weather is bad. But, like, those are stupid reasons. Yeah.

Yeah. They have a disability that's prohibitive to easy movement. Their perception that someone else's job is to collect the carts. They're leaving the carts for someone else to easily pick up and use. I think all of those are no good reason. Yeah, I just went to a place and Randy said they're just lazy. They can't clean up after themselves. They also think everything should be given to them for no cost, no reason.

They're just lazy to put it back where it belongs. It's called being self-centered, ignorant, and expecting free things. There is a lot of that in this country. A lot. That is true. Apparently there are five types of cart users. This is amazing. I can't believe it. What?

Returners. These people always return their carts to the receptacle regardless of how far they are parked or what the weather is like. Sense of obligation, feel badly for people responsible for collecting carts. That is me. I feel that way. And I know on here they have, one of the things they had was why would people do it? And one of the things is disability or they can't move easy. For me, the reason why I return the cart is if someone

has disability issues, the cart's there right next to the door. I'm doing them a favor. The people that are out in the rain, if it's raining, I move my cart back to where it's covered so it isn't soaking wet when someone else goes to use it.

Yeah, I do have a sense of obligation because I would like someone to do the same for me. Yeah. I think that's also more common in places like Japan and stuff. Or, again, where they make you rent a cart where you have to rent it if you want to. Oh, that's right. What's it called?

What's that one grocery store? Aldi. Aldi, yeah. Aldi has that thing where you have to put a quarter in so you'll lose your quarter if you don't do it. Genius. And, you know, people will be lazy still. Like, it's just a quarter. Nah, I guarantee you, those same people, those are the same people.

I ain't losing my quarter. That's big money. The never returners, people who never return carts, they believe it's someone else's job to get the carts to the supermarket responsibly. They don't care where the cart is left. They show little regard for where the cart is left.

Convenience returners. People who return the cart if they are parked close to the receptacle. Pressure returners. People who return the carts only if the cart attendant is present. Damn. If that's where you're at, just become a returner. Yeah, just return.

And then there are child-driven returners these are people with children who view it as a game to return the carts often riding them back to the receptacle and pushing them into stacked lines so that's yeah okay whatever that's the same thing yeah it's just interesting to me it's just like it doesn't take that long to push it back to the cart return area and like you've already done that it's the same okay it's the same thing when people try to fight for parking spots up close you know what i mean i just people like fight for these spots like i gotta get a close-up spot you can literally i've done it where like i've parked where there's like nobody parts like a couple cars and i just walk, and I'm into the store before the person's even parking.

It's the same people that are just like, oh, I got to get my exercise. Just park 10 feet away then. You can just walk. There's some extra walking for you. Usually the way parking lots are, there's the way far back, and then there's the spots that are facing towards the street. I don't get those spots. I think those are too far back because you have to cross over, cross over shopping lanes or, like, driving lanes and stuff. I'm like, nah.

But, like, the furthest back in the lane, always. Like, if there's a row, I'm always in the back. There's no reason to go up front. There could be, like, someone who could barely walk who needs to get there. Yeah. Are you kidding me? On top of that, when you're backing out, you got to get out of there, people probably, like, might back into you.

There's, like, people walking by. If you just park a bit further back, boom, you're backing out, you gotta get out of there. People probably might back into you. There's people walking by. If you just park a bit further back, boom, you're clear. I'm super interested in the fact that there is just straight up a scientific American article. Why don't people return their shopping cards? Incredible. Science was done on this.

I mean, it checks out. I mean, this is a thing everybody deals with. Everybody goes to a grocery store you know yeah someone said the shopping cart theory the shopping cart is the ultimate litmus test for whether a person is capable of self

governing yeah man I remember this one time I went to this one place this isn't even like a shopping cart thing i literally parked in the parking spot and then uh i went inside i was getting toast roman a drink and i came back out and then toast roman texted me and she's like this woman is like mad next to us and i got there and she's like you parked your car close to mine and I was like I parked in the parking space like I was literally between the lines it was like a normal parking

thing but she parked her car like really close to the line so she was closer to me but you could still like open the door like we're both still within parking spots. And then she was just like, you parked near to me. And then she was freaking out. And I literally just kept repeating. I was like, I parked between the lines. I parked between the lines. She can't argue it. So I just kept saying it. I was like, I parked between the

lines. And then she was like, well, yeah. And then she was like, whatever. And she got in and drove off. But I don't understand. Could she not get into her car? I guess not. Why was she so concerned with...

I think she was just a crazy person. I mean, there are a lot of crazy people who just want someone to talk to. You're absolutely correct. Like 100% she could have gotten in her car. And I don't know what she wanted. I was literally in the parking spot i didn't park on the line i wasn't if i was on the line i would have been like oh shit my bad but i wasn't i parked in the parking spot between the lines yeah i've only one time ever had someone park so close to my car that i couldn't open the door and i was like like furious. I was like, come on. You're not even in the line,

bro. So I waited for them to come out and was just like, they were like, sorry. So rude. But I don't know. I've never... If you're in the lines, in theory, you should be fine. That's what they're there for.

And if anything, American lines are wider because we have giant-ass trucks and Humvees and shit. That's true. There's some big-ass cars out there. Big-ass cars. There's like those Escalades. That's like the size of three cars. It probably costs like $300 to fill that thing up.

Oh, my God. I saw a guy post a tweet that was on, it ended up on Reddit under, I think it was r slash trashy or something. And a guy posted, went to go fill up my truck. It cost, my 23 gallon tank cost me $157 to fill. I drove off without paying and got a ticket for $85. That's how you do it, America. I was like, what the hell? Yep.

There you go. Like, that guy is r slash trashy. It sucks. It sucks. This has nothing to do with anything we've been talking about But I brought this up last night I wanted to do a thing

Where I watch Like 10 episode Ones of an anime Yes And then I rate them Which I thought was the best and which was the worst. Episode ones of anime, if you watched all 10, I guarantee all 10 you'd be like, this is garbage.

I'm convinced the first episode of most anime is like, what the hell did I just watch? That's the thing. Some people, I already know some people are going to be like, oh, well, it doesn't get good until episode 47. But I just want to see. I want 10 animesimes i want to watch all of them and then i'm going to rank them based on the episode one and be like this was my favorite

episode one is my least favorite as somebody who doesn't really watch anime and has enjoyed like four animes if you have any suggestions comment them yes everyone we need to find the top 10 animes of all time. But the only, don't recommend ones I've already seen, which are Attack on Titan, Demon Slayer, Parasite. There's like two more, but they're like pretty popular. But recommend other ones. I think, oh, RE0, I saw. I'm talking about like Dragon Ball Z Episode 1.

I'm talking about like that Rubber Band Pirate show. I'm talking about like, I don't know what the hell that thing's called. Rubber Band, One Piece, One Piece, One Piece. Oh yeah, One Piece. I feel like I watched One Piece Episode 1 with Gmart because he loves One Piece. Gmart loves all anime.

He loves, you'll watch anime like non-stop all day that's just i can't do it i can't do it i can't do it i can watch like the like if an anime is really good i'll be like okay i'm gonna watch this but like like i said i've watched like five animes where i'm like dude yeah it's really good yeah even less for me so yeah right give me some recommendations okay i'm gonna i'm gonna watch 10 of them Yeah, even less for me. So yeah, Greg, give me some recommendations. Okay, I'm going to watch 10 of them, and I'm going to rank them in a video. I think it'll be a fun video.

It'll probably drive some people insane. Well, frankly, I'm here for it. I like that. I like that idea a lot. I mainly got that because Toastwoman's gone for a week because she's visiting her mom. So I got nothing to do for a week. And I'm trying to think of ideas. So that was one of them that I thought of. I think you should.

It sounds like a lot of work. But, you know, sometimes in life it's about the work. Yeah. Sometimes you got to put in the work, you know, to create. Yeah, put in the work to create. Put in the work to create. Put in the work to create. Aside from that, I've just been doing chores. I'm like my dad.

I realize that's what he does. He's like, got to clean the gutters. Got to clean behind the fridge. So I've been cleaning behind the fridge. Like vacuum back there. Why? Why? It gets dusty.

But I guess my question is, are you so bored when Toast is gone that you have to do that? I just feel compelled to do it. I like cleaning. I mean, I understand. But why now? My question is, why now? now because i have like because normally like you know you're you can like like talk to it's like you got someone to talk to so you're just like oh hey what do you do i do something you want to go eat or like oh you want to watch a show or whatever i got another that's something

like what do i do now like i'm gonna clean or like i can fix this thing or like oh the faucet needs some work i could like you start doing like start doing, like, that's how you know. That's how you know you're getting older, too. It's like, I'm literally just doing what my dad did. I guess I could clean, yeah. I guess I could caulk the shower. Why not? Might as well.

That hasn't been done in a while. I guess I could rearrange all the furniture in the house. Yeah, move the refrigerator, you know, vacuum it, carpet clean. Haven't done done in a while. I guess I could rearrange all the furniture in the house. Yeah, move the refrigerator. You know, vacuum it. Carpet clean. Haven't done that in a while. Vacuum. You are an old man.

How'd that happen? I think I've always been old, but now I've, like, truly become old. Oh, yeah. It's, like, actually happening. Yeah. That's pretty funny. It's pretty fun, honestly. I'm glad you're enjoying it. I'm glad you're enjoying it.

I'm glad you're enjoying your alone time. The thing is, like, being alone is all right. And then I feel like after, like, day four, I start being like, man, being lonely sucks. Well, well, well, welcome to my world. Well, well, well, welcome to my world. That's the thing. I feel like because there's other people like, your wife's gone. I'm like, I like being around my wife.

I feel like that's the sign of a healthy relationship. That's like the boomer humor. Like, my wife's gone, finally. I'm like, I don't know. You lucked out. You're very lucky. You found someone who tolerates you. That's very true.

Yeah, you found someone who's, like, all right with the whole thing that is you. In fact, we'll be together nine years, nine or ten years. Jesus. We actually started dating when we started Cox and Crandor. Is that true? That's crazy. Well, you're welcome. I feel like I had a lot to do with that. Yeah, you probably did. Yeah. 100%.

I'll take credit where none is due. Soon, you're going to find your redhead, and then you'll be flying. You'll be Flying I had to explain to people today During Sunday service People were like so what you're just not going to date anyone I was like yeah

How are you going to find someone I was like I don't know don't care I deleted the dating app stuff I haven't even like Thought about A single woman I'm just like, one day I'll find the right one. Don't care. I'm all about...

It's all about Jesse. Not even attempting to find love. I'm like, when I see her, I'll know. And until then, not even looking. That's the thing. It's always when you least suspect it. There you go. That's the thing everybody tells you.

Don't even try. And then before you know it, someone will pop into your life, unless they don't. I'm not even trying. Someone was like, Jesse, you'll be lonely. I was like, trust me, I've dated plenty. And I would rather be alone than go through some of that shit again. Oh, yeah. You kidding me?

The whole point of a healthy relationship is that you're both like friends on top of being in a relationship. So it's like you enjoy each other's company. You're not just like I gotta be around this person. Which I think is like another like boomer thing. I think a lot of the boomer people got married too early

and then they just get older and they're like hey my old woman and stuff like that yeah i think people just settled and i was like i don't intend to settle and uh they were like well someone's got to settle for you i was like you're damn right not Not me, though. I'm not selling. That's true. You just gotta find because you're like a workaholic. You gotta find someone else that's also a workaholic

or that enjoys being with someone that's a workaholic. I would be totally fine if I found someone that I want to spend time with. I would stop working as much as I do if it was someone I really like to be around. You know what I mean? Yeah.

I just haven't met that person yet. Yeah. But if they're a redhead. If they're a redhead, it might happen. Watch out, world. It might happen. I mean, that's the thing. We've been saying it.

It's got to happen, right? There's no way it can fail. And if it does fail, it wouldn't be the first time something I've been involved with failed. So, frankly, I'm ready. I'm prepared. That's great. Yeah. Not even stressed.

Zero stress here. This isn't like one of those things where it's like, if I don't find someone, it's like, I don't even care. It doesn't even affect me all that much. I got so much going on. I am doing great. So it doesn't even care. It doesn't even affect me all that much. I got so much going on. I am doing great. So it doesn't bother me. Everyone's like, well, don't you want to share your life with someone? I share my life with everyone listening right now.

Every week. You do. So I'm good. I'm all right. Yeah. A hundred percent. Hell yes. You know what else I share with people?

My dad, after my mom went into surgery, my mom was like, I can't cook anymore right now. They've got Factor. Factor was the thing they chose, and they love it.

My dad purposefully gets the fish meals. He loves those. What's crazy, this is absolutely true. For Father's Day, rather than cook, my mom ordered three, I think, no, two steak meals from Factor, one fish meal for my dad, and chicken wings through Factor. And that's what we ate. It's not even a joke. That's what we had for Father's Day.

My dad loved it. Factor has calorie smart, keto options, built-in portion control to help you if you're trying to get fit this summer.

Factor saves time and energy by delivering it right to your doorstep, eliminating the hassle of going out and dealing with all that stuff. Each Factor meal arrives pre-prepared, ready to eat in two minutes. That's right.

If my dad loves it, I know you will too. All right. Let's go to traffic oh boy traffic is actually insane because of fourth of july everybody's going everywhere places are packed and the biggest news the hot dog eating contest is happening uh it's happening folks joey chestnut again. I don't know how that man is still going. His stomach is the size of, like, the ocean. Um, back to you.

I don't like how they do that hot dog contest. That thing sucks. I love the hot dog eating contest. You kidding me? Oh, it's gross. Watch them dip the buns in water and then, like, goop it down their mouth is so disgusting to me. Oh, I hate it. I love it I'd rather they have to eat the hot dogs like a normal person Rather than that like

Cause I know what a soggy hot dog bun tastes like And that shit's gross I can't do it I still think They probably shouldn't have to eat the buns honestly Like just let them eat the hot dogs Agreed but there's probably like some big bun company You know what I mean Like big Oscar Myers Like you better eat those buns Like, just let them eat the hot dogs. Agreed, but there's probably, like, some big bun company.

You know what I mean? Big Oscar Myers, like, you better eat those buns. Eat those buns. Eat those buns. Yeah, and then they wet them, and they're just like. Oh, it's so gross, dude. I love it. I have one of One of my most vivid memories of 4th of July is watching the hot dog eating contest

and then playing on my Nintendo DS. I think I had to be like 14 or 15. And I played some Final Fantasy Nintendo DS game because I was like, I'll try a Final Fantasy and I played like 40 minutes and then I never played it again. But I remember playing it.

Like you. Yeah, that sounds exactly like you. Which Final Fantasy DS game would that be? Let's see. What was on the DS? Crystal Chronicle, maybe? None of the handheld ones were very good, to be honest. There were...

Every Final Fantasy game on the DS. Oh, shit. There were plenty of them. Final Fantasy Fables Chocobo Tale. Shout out to Chocobo Games. Chocobo and the Magic Picture Book. The Witch, the Girl, and the Five Heroes. Amazing. Sid and Chocobo's Mysterious Dungeon.

No, that's not it. Final Fantasy XII Revenant Wings. Never heard of that. Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles Ring of Fates. So there's a Crystal Chronicles game. Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles. Ring of Fates. So there's a Crystal Chronicles game. Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles Echoes of Time. I guess they re-released Final Fantasy 3 on it. I'm not a big fan of Final Fantasy 3.

Final Fantasy The Four Heroes of Light. Don't know what the hell that is. Final Fantasy Tactics. I do love the tactics games. Those are good. And then Final Fantasy 4 was released. Final Fantasy 4 is a great game. I don't know if the DS version Those are good. And then Final Fantasy 4 was released. Final Fantasy 4 is a great game. I don't know if the DS version is any good, but

interesting. What did you play? I don't know what I played. I'm trying to figure it out. You sure it was even Final Fantasy? Uh, 100%. I remember playing it and it did the like the intro song.

I did a terrible intro song yeah it was that was very bad yes pendo ds i remember i think it was maybe it was a remastered game it might have been it might have been either three or four but part of me feels like i was going through a cave at the start, and there was, like, I think it was, like, kind of Game Boy looking. More than, like, newer looking. Game Boy looking. Maybe it was, I don't know. I'm honestly not sure. I want to know now, though.

What did I play? Yeah, I have no idea what you played. It reminded me more like a Game Boy game, I think, than a DS game. Like, it wasn't all 3D from what I remember. Or wait, maybe. Yeah, I don't. There was a Final Fantasy VI for Game Boy Advance, but that's not DS. Final Fantasy VI starts at a cave. Here's the not DS. Final Fantasy VI starts in a cave.

Here's the thing. A lot of them start in a cave, though. I don't know why I'm trying to, like... A lot of things begin in a cave with, like, a weird, like, it began in a cave or something. It's also possible I played Game Boy Advance and I'm thinking it's the DS. I don't know. Maybe.

I think it was around that 2007 time frame. Oh, it wouldn't have been Advance then. Game Boy Advance was like 2001-ish, right? Yeah, I think that was earlier. Yeah, I think it was the DS. I'm pretty sure it was the DS. Nintendo DS. Well, I mean, this thing says every Final Fantasy DS game ranked,

and there is no Final Fantasy VI, so that's not it. Again, there's a bunch of Chocobo games that I think is hilarious. That's not real Final Fantasy. There's a Final Fantasy XII game that is, like, not actually Final Fantasy. Huh. And there's Crystal Chronicles. There's a lot of is, like, not actually Final Fantasy. Huh. And there's Crystal Chronicles. There's a lot of Crystal Chronicles games. Those are mostly the handheld ones.

But those were, like, extra shits. And then there's Final Fantasy 3 and 4. So it might have been one of those. Maybe it was. I feel like maybe I need to, like, try and play them and just see something to like click if i play them all can i ask you a question did it have voices in it no all right so it wasn't final fantasy 4 i guess so or i guess not yeah in in final fantasy 4 they tried to put in voice work that came out j July 22, 2008.

So this was 2007. It wouldn't have been that. Yeah, I think it was definitely before 2008. I'm pretty sure. Final Fantasy III was 2006. Final Fantasy III? Let's see. Yeah. I can't really write.

The problem is Final Fantasy I, II, and 3, I simply can't... People always ask me if they should play them, and I simply can't recommend them. They're just too old. Even the way the stories are told and what the games are, it's like... The original game came out in 1990. It is some basic, we're trying to tell you what an RPG should be, but we don't know yet. Maybe it was a Crystal Chronicles. Probably. Those are usually the handheld ones that people play.

It probably was then. The Crystal Chronicles games are never as good as the mainline games. They're all like, do you want to play as Gorgoboth? Yeah. Do you want to play as Gorgoboth? Yeah Like again This is Final Fantasy's Crystal Chronicles Echoes of Time Focused on four tribes

This is how I know I would hate this The Ukes, the Selkies, the Lilites, and the Kalvats Or wait, Klavats No, I'd already be out I'd be like, that's too much for me Can't do that No, I don't care about. I'd be like, that's too much for me. Can't do that. No, I don't care about the Ukes, the Selkies, the Lilties, or the Clavits.

No, I'm okay. It wasn't 3D. It was like that top-down kind of Game Boy looking thing. Are you sure? You weren't just playing on a Game Boy? I know I wasn't playing on it. That's part of the reason I was like, maybe it was a Game Boy Advance. I don't know. It was either an original DS or an Advance, though. I'm 100%'t playing it. That's part of the reason I was like, maybe it was a Game Boy Advance. I don't know.

It was either an original DS or an Advance, though. Like, I'm 100% sure of that. Okay. Somebody, and I was in a cave. I was in a cave. All right. That's not helpful at all. That is the least helpful thing I've ever heard. Level one in a cave.

Final Fantasy starts in a cave uh final final fantasy starts in a cave i can't believe i'm typing this in starts in a cave i know final fantasy 6 has a cave in the intro it's not you don't start there but uh it's not final fantasy 8 it's not final location. Oh my god, I can't believe this is a thing. God bless the Final Fantasy Wicked Cave location appearances. Final Fantasy I, Matoia's Cave. That's a classic. Shout out to Matoia. Mithril Mines in Final Fantasy II.

The Altar Cave is the first location explored. And Houses of the Wind Crystal. That's Final Fantasy III. You might have in Final Fantasy 2. The Altar Cave is the first location explored. And Houses of the Wind Crystal. That's Final Fantasy 3. You might have played Final Fantasy 3. Maybe I was. That's not it. The Narshe Mines. Final Fantasy 6.

Or Narshe. Mithril Mines. Final Fantasy 8. What about... I need to find Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles. Final Fantasy Mythic Quest. Final Fantasy Mythic Quest. Final Fantasy Curtain Call. Jesus, there's so many games.

I'm gonna say it was Final Fantasy 3. I keep thinking it's Final Fantasy 3 and it checks, like, everything seems like that's the case. And as a person who's not really that big of a fan of Final Fantasy 3, like, yeah, alright, that checks out.

But you would be like, I don't like this. But this looks 3D. Well, then I don't know what to tell you, man. I don't know how to help you. The original certainly wasn't 3D. Oh. Wait, I guess. But it's not in a cave.

The opening is, well, look, I don't know what to tell you. I don't know what to tell you. I'm trying to help. I'm trying to help you and everyone listening and now that's working. Well, that's the traffic. You're about to say weather. Speaking of weather, let's go to weather. Weather time.

Speaking of weather, let's go to weather. Weather time. Let's see. We have a weather recommendation for Bone, Idaho. Apparently, they had to shut down their only convenience store because treasure hunters kept looking for treasure. At the convenience store? I guess. Shut up.

What is Bone, Idaho? Bone, Idaho. Let's see. Oh, I understand why they would look for... Bone, Idaho is an old looking town. I bet people would go there trying to find treasure

at the convenience store because it's probably like 800 year old treasure in there. Maybe it is. Well, currently it's probably like 800-year-old treasure in there. Maybe it is. Well, currently it's 70 degrees Fahrenheit. You got your high, which is 80. You got your low, which is 50. You got your humidity at 41%, 29.61 inches of pressure, 10-mile visibility, 4-mile-an-hour winds, 5.52 a.m. sunrise, 9.10 p.m. sunset,

45 on the dew point, 0 out of 10 on the index and a waxing crescent moon phase looking at the 10 day we got monday 80 mostly sunny tuesday 82 sunny wednesday 84 mostly sunny thursday 87 mostly sunny fr sunny. Friday, 89, sunny. Saturday, 89, sunny. Sunny Sunday, 86. And then Monday, 85, mostly sunny. So a lot of sun and a lot of 80s over in Bone, Idaho.

Dude. Wow. Okay. This is from a recent article about Bone. Bone's historic store reopens. I guess this is from a recent article about Bone. Bone's historic store reopens. I guess this is from 2020. In the 1970s, cartoonist Phil Frank tried to call Bone City Hall in Bone, only to learn it had no telephone.

When the town finally got its first phone in 1982, it made national news as one of the last towns in America to get one. That's crazy. To this day, Bone feels stuck in time. To reach it, you'll have to drive miles down a winding road past rolling hills empty of all but windmills and cattle. When you get there, you find a community with a population of just two people, according to the most recent government records. Just two people, according to the most recent government records. In bone stands, I hope it's called, do you think it's maybe like Bonnie?

You know what I mean? No way, it's got to be bone. I hope so. In bone stands the 110-year-old store aptly known as the Bone Store. The Bone Zone. On its walls hangs a poem written by Heber L. Bernard. It was written decades ago. Just how long no one is sure. It says, there are places of far more importance, small towns or great cities so bright, but they can't compete with the busy dirt road to bone on a Saturday night.

And the Bone Store reopened after a three-year closure. I guess because they closed it because people were coming there to find stuff. There's a photo of the store and on the ceiling are a bunch of dollar bills, which is even crazier. I don't know why people didn't come there for the bills. But yeah, they tore down the old store and then they rebuilt it. Huh. When Amanda bought the place, she got trash bags stuffed with $1 bills that had previously covered the ceiling. Among them, she found one signed by her father from the 80s.

Many restaurant diners seem to have a similar connection to the place. People keep coming back there. What? I guess this is like the old bone store. It's the Madison Square Garden of Bone, said one of the townspeople. But I feel like it's the only place

in Bone. What the? Yeah. I would love to see a map of Bone. Bone? Let me see a map. There's got to be a map. I'm looking at all the pictures of the restaurant. Steel and Joe's Bone, the bone store. That's it? The old bone store?

Wow. Okay. So, I said there has to be a map. Bone Road is a road. And that's it. It goes past the Bone Trailhead, which I guess is a bunch of forest. And then you end up in Bone. And in Bone, I swear to God on this map, there are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14,

air quotes, homes, and then the Bone Store. I need to see what this is. Yep, yep. I don't think those are homes, actually. They appear to be trailers associated with storage. This reminds me of when our dear friend Will and I went to the middle of nowhere in Nevada to go to Area 51, and we stopped at the Little Ailey Inn, and it was straight up like a restaurant trailer,

and then there were three or four trailers associated with it, but it was a town. Whatever that town was called, it was not a – there was like – I don't know how that's considered a town. Crazy. Crazy. It's got a bunch of good reviews. It actually looks pretty good looking at the food. Oh, you can see the food?

Yeah. It looks pretty good. You know what? You're not wrong. Yeah. This is crazy. So they serve both pizza and Indian food? Yeah, they got curry.

That is... For Idaho, that's pretty wild. Wow, that hot dog looks like a good ass hot dog It does that's what I'm saying It's got pretty good food Although I'm not sure how I feel about the mugs that say This boner heart bleeds red white and blue I'm not sure

I'm not sure I like that This boner heart My boner heart Yeah They have an outdoor area Boner heart. All right. My boner heart. Yeah. They have an outdoor area to play music and dance, and it definitely looks like it gets about as much people as you would think. All the concert photos are, like, a band and then three people.

Yep. And you just look out into the it. Hey, they serve wine. They serve the USA Cabernet. Yeah, they got the USA Cab. The USA Cab. And then they have wine glasses that say Mighty Fine Boner Mama. I don't know that I like that. Yeah.

The cheeseburgers look like Here's what I'll say They got like a soup thing That soup looks good The cheeseburgers I think has a little too much cheese for me But I'd eat it I'd eat it Yeah I'd still eat it

The soup looks good I don't know what the hell that soup is But I'd eat that Yeah it looks fine Looks like a fine Fine bone zone Like a bone zone Looks like the bone zone yeah i'm all right with it i think you know it's not too shabby i agree i bet there's a few people there that have opinions i might disagree with but you know other than that it looks like a fine place exactly yeah that's the

weather all right let's go to sports. Sports. Welcome to the sports desk. We've got sports. So NFL training camps are underway. Well, they're kind of underway. They're going to be starting full on in a couple weeks. Then you got NHL, the Colorado Avalanche, winning the Stanley Cup. Congratulations to the Colorado Avalanche.

I watched that game. It was pretty good. Then in the NBA, free agencies started. The Brooklyn Nets are having their team fall apart. It's pretty wild. That sounds right. Pretty much they formed a super team, and then Kevin Durant was the head guy there,

and now they haven't done anything. And Kyrie Irving, who's insane, wants to go to the Lakers, and that's the only place he wants to go. And then Kevin Durant's like, well, I want to get traded. And then everybody on teams fall apart. They traded all their draft picks away to have this happen. It's a disaster. That sounds right.

That sounds right. Yeah, so that's fun. Dude, I live for the NBA drama. It's a disaster. That sounds right. That sounds right. That's fun, dude. I live for the NBA drama. It's like my favorite off season. Followed by the NFL, but NBA drama's the best. Then the Bulls did some stuff. They got two old dudes that are

better than what we had. They found two old men to come in and shoot some hoops with them. The Bulls needed rebounding. They got Andre Drummond. He's, you know, he can rebound, which is all we need. That's fine. Backup center rebounder. You got him cheap. And then they just signed Goran

Dragic, who's like, I swear he's like 40 years old, but I don't care. If he could hit an open three when DeRozan gets quadruple team. Goran Dragic? Is that his name? Goran Dragic. Goran Dragic. That that his name? Goran Dragic. Goran Dragic. That's a wild-ass name. See, the Mavs fans thought he was going to go to Dallas because he's friends with Luka Doncic.

But the Bulls had Vucevic, and he convinced him to come to the Bulls. You know what? Shout-out to those amazingly named men. No, there's some great NBA names out there. But here's the thing. Some people are like, oh, he's old. I swear, like, okay, in the playoffs, the Bulls,

they would just quadruple team DeRozan, and he'd kick it out to somebody, and they couldn't hit threes. Kobe White airballed it. Io, he would airball. Like, so many people, they just clank the three. So, like, if this dude that's, like, 40 years old can just hit an open three-pointer, great. Perfect.

That's all they need. And then they'll probably make a trade, get like a forward or something. Either way, you know, still DeAndre Ayton waiting to get traded. He's probably going to get traded for Kevin Durant if I had to guess. Some other big signings there. Dude, love me some NBA offseason. Then,

baseball. Baseball. Yankees NBA offseason. Then baseball. Baseball. Yankees in first place by a mile. Twins in first. Astros in first. Mets in first. Brewers in first. Dodgers in first. Pretty much all the teams

you'd expect are in first. Yankees, Brewers, Dodgers. Woo. Woo. Woo. expect are in first Yankees Brewers Dodgers woo woo woo it's a sports all right let's go to our fact of the day fact of the day well yes are you ready I was born ready. Hit me. All right. Wow, there's some good facts here. Ah, good. Oh, man. Which fact do I want to do?

Okay, this one's pretty good. You'd probably like this one, too. Okay. The sound of a Star Wars lightsaber was created by pairing together the sound of an idle film projector and the buzz from an old TV set. Like, yeah, I believe that. I feel like there was definitely some antennas used. You know what I mean? Like when you especially if you have microphones like we do, if you get it too close to a power source, it makes the sound that sounds very much like a lightsaber oh yeah that is true yeah i can see that that's pretty neat i'm gonna throw in a bonus one uh cookie monster's real name is sid nope i i choose to ignore that

sid monster here no no that's cookie monster here it's gotta be cookie monster yeah no i'm all right i don't need any of that other garbage i don't know what the hell they're talking about um wait speaking of real names okay there's another one the triple snoop dog's real name is cortazar calvin broadus jr i thought his first name was Cortazar. I thought his name was Calvin Broadus. Cortazar Calvin Broadus Jr. Cortazar. Cortazar Calvin Broadus Jr. His nickname came from his mother who thought

he looked like Snoopy from Peanuts. That's pretty good. That is very good. I love that. That's so funny. There's your facts on that. Yes. All right.

What is our big news story of the day? Well, speaking of Star Wars, Florida man arrested after posing as Disney World employee and stealing Star Wars R2-D2 replica. Go on. A Florida man has been arrested after he posed as a Disney World employee and stole a $10,000 replica of the iconic Star Wars character R2-D2. ABC's Central Florida affiliate WFTV reports David Emerson, proud foot 44 of Kissimmee...

Kissimmee? I think that's how that's called. Yeah, Kissimmee. Was arrested on May 31st after he snatched... Kissimmee. Kissimmee? I think that's how that's called. Yeah, Kissimmee. Was arrested on May 31st after he snatched. Kissimmee? I don't know. It's something. After he snatched the droid from Disney World's Swan Hotel

in an attempt to get hired as a security guard at the Walt Disney World's Resort in Orlando. Whoa, wait. Time out. His plan was to steal R2, and then, why not just steal R2 and then run? I don't know. That R2-D2 unit,

I've seen those at Disneyland. Those things are cool as hell. But also, if that thing's $10,000, you could sell it on eBay for some serious money. Oh yeah, probably. According to police, Proudfoot was seen by hotel security pushing a cart

on the property while wearing an orange work vest and a Disney World name tag. Security guards. They were like, sir, I'm sorry, what are you doing? I work here. Security guards who suspected something suspicious was taking place subsequently escorted Proudfoot to the

Yacht Club Resort to retrieve his belongings and his driver's license from the employee lockers, at which point they called law enforcement. Proudfoot allegedly told police he had a pending application with Disney World Security and was only moving the R2-D2 replica in an effort to show weaknesses in the security of the resorts. That'll teach him.

Yep. Look, it's like stealing from somebody's home, being like, you really got to upgrade your security. I got in here pretty easy. It reminds me of that time long ago I was doing a vlog and some guy messaged me like, look, in your background, I saw a tree, and I pinpointed where that tree was on a map, and I know exactly where you live,

and I'm just letting you know a crazy person could find that out. And I was like, what? Yeah, people are insane. There's some crazy people out there. Like, yeah, you know. I've pinpointed your location and shown up at your house to show you that somebody could do that to you, and now I'm going to leave. Good day.

Well, what's insane is that in the hacker world, I guess that is a frequent thing. Oh, yeah. I guess if you hack somebody's website and then you say, like, I hacked it and I can show you how to, like, not have it hacked, they'll hire them, which I guess doesn't translate well to the real world. Yeah. Yeah. He also later admitted to breaking into three separate arcade machines at Disney Wilderness Lodge, Boardwalk Resort, and the Grand Floridian Resort. Brownfoot has been charged with two counts of grand theft, one count of petty theft, one count of obstruction by false information, and one count of scheming to defraud. According to court records, he made a written plea of not guilty on June 24th.

So he's not guilty, but he broke into three machines and removed an object. He was doing it for them, Grendor! It was for them! He was stealing R2-D2! But for Disney! He was saving Disney from itself! If anything, he's like the Rebellion,

fighting against the Empire, trying to save R2-D2. R the Empire. He's essentially kidnapping their child. R2-D2 is like a Disney child. It was his only hope. He was the only one who could stop it. You're lucky I'm not an actual kidnapper. Or your kid would be gone. I stole your kid, but you're lucky I only did it for you.

I was trying to save you. Yep. What a guy. What a guy. All right. That's it for us. Thank you so much for listening or watching or however you're enjoying this podcast. Crendor.
