In the morning. We're on Captain Blonde Live Live Live Live. In four hour and forty studio hour. Good morning. Good morning. Good morning. Good morning. Good morning.

Good morning. Good morning. Good morning. Good morning. Good morning. Good morning. Good morning. Good morning. Good morning. Hello everybody! Whoa! Woo!

Goodbye! Goodbye! Yeah, that was my tribute. Not me screwing up. That was my tribute to Happy Gilmore, the sequel, out now. Oh yeah, that's right. I saw that was out now. Is it probably the same

as every other Adam Sandler movie ever? I don't know I haven't I haven't seen it I don't I'll watch it one day maybe but it's not like I gotta watch it right now it's very important to me. I got stuff to do. It's one of those things where like if someone else is watching it and you're there you're like I'd watch this. Yeah like oh the first Happy Gilmore was great I love that it's like 25 years older overall I I don't know. So like, yeah, all right, maybe.

Like I'm looking at the cast right now. It's obvious some of the people in this movie weren't even born when the first Happy Gilmore came out. It's interesting to me because it does feel like the latest in like nostalgia bait. And it's weird because that definitely feels like what we're doing now in media where for example um i saw that uh uh they were talking about making a follow-up to goonies uh yep and getting the original cast back together and part of me was like oh that would be interesting to see but another part of me was like why though? Yeah, let's go. That's easy. Yeah. Yeah, and it's how you get people in seats I mean again, it's all businesses and corporate dudes running companies who are like

How do we maximize profits and know what people will show because if you make something new you don't know if people gonna show up For it, but if you make something that's all new new again, then like you will have at least some audience. Like I get it. I don't necessarily like it, but like I get it. Yeah. Well it happens, because it happens in movies, happens with video games all the time. It's like, here's this game remastered. Here's the, you know, like all these different games.

They're like remastered with new graphics, remastered with this, or like new features, new additions, or bringing back old version. Like look at classic WoW or old school RuneScape. And some of them I get like if it's a if it's a classic game that just has not aged well but people still love it updating it for modern times like that I understand it's a video game and you play it how you want to play like that I get um but you don't do that with movies movies you create a sequel which is a whole new story

that may or may not be good. Not the original one. You know what I mean? Yeah. And a lot of times they just never hold up to the original. Most times. Cause they're just trying. It's like they're trying too hard in a lot of them.

I did see one post that said, instead of remaking good movies we should remake bad movies that sucked but had like good premises. Yeah that would actually be really fun. I like that yeah bring back the movies that totally flopped but like on paper looked awesome that's what we should do I'm here for that. What would what would be the number one movie you would do with that? Oh my god, there's so many fantasy series that came out. I keep thinking about, oh god, what was that movie? Uragon, whatever the hell that Dragon movie was from the early 2000s. That sucked. It was terrible. But premise-wise, kinda cool. I was like, okay, all right. Um,

remember when they did a golden compass movie and that was kind of trash. I feel like doing a golden compass movie trilogy would be fun. There's a lot of fun stuff to do. And they tried, you know, they definitely did some stuff with the TV show and I watched it, but after a while the TV show just got boring. And I think that's because it was a TV show rather than three movies You know what I mean? Like let's keep it going people Stuff like that

I think fantasy is a really great space for that Um... Yeah! Just movies that didn't get a chance That came out, sucked terribly, and no one watched Yeah it's... I'm trying to... Honestly I would probably redo Game of Thrones at this point. I don't even want to think about it I don't want to like let's wait until George writes a book and then we get an ending and then we can talk about that The thing is like there's bad movies. Then there's like fun bad movies. You wouldn't want to remake the fun bad movies

Yeah, yeah I think they should remember back in the day when there was that video game of Alien vs. Predator in the arcades And it was awesome. And then they released an Alien vs. Predator movie and it sucked ass Now that there's a bunch of Predator movies We need to like have a real awesome Alien vs. Predator movie That would be pretty cool. One of those like no matter who wins we lose like yeah, that'd be awesome. Um I definitely think they should try and do the dark tower again because they tried to make a movie that and that was terrible but the dark tower

is a series is awesome what's the dark tower uh it's a stephen king series uh that basically connects all of his books oh yeah they made a movie and the movie sucked. Like sucked sucked. The problem is, yeah, it's all kind of like sci-fi things. You know? Or fantasy. Which usually tend to be the ones where they take big swings. And or they don't swing far enough and it just sucks. Yeah, I'm looking at biggest box office busts. There's like King Arthur, Legend of the Sword. Yikes, I don't even know what that is.

Yeah, I don't either. King Arthur Legend of the Sword. Yikes, I don't even know what that is. Yeah, I don't either. King Arthur. When did that come out? Legend of the Sword. 2017. Oh, is that the one that was like Guy Ritchie? Charlie Hun-Hunum. I think that was the Guy Ritchie version of King Arthur. Honestly, real talk kind of enjoyed it. It was like not a King Arthur movie I'd ever seen before. That's for sure. Oh yeah, Guy Ritchie. I guess it is. Yeah. Imagine, imagine King Arthur being like, all right, bruvs, this is what we're going to do. We're going to infiltrate the castle. And then it like shows, you know, like a montage of them doing the things that it cuts back to them at the planning. It's like, it'll be that easy. And everyone's like, oh, oh, fuh. Yeah, love it. Love it.

I see. So it's like modernized King Arthur. Yes. Yes. I was having fun. It's not great, but I was having fun. Yeah. Yeah, I don't know. This is why, listen, this is why they just remake the good movies. Because they're like, oh, that's good. See it again But that's it. Like you were saying with games. That's the difference is like a good game remade Continues the legend of the classic like a new updated modern Generation can play stuff. You know what I mean? Yeah, and

a movie is They aren't really remaking the movie, they're just bringing back the older cast to do a sequel and it's never quite as good. Like in my mind, part of the fun of the original Goonies, for example, is that it's a bunch of kids caught up in like, the adults are after all and we gotta find a buried treasure but we have to save our town. And then there's sloth and that kind of stuff. Bringing all the kids back as adults, even though most of them are famous actors now,

bringing them back as adults, what would that even be? Like one last treasure hunt for the Gooney kids. Like, well, you know, it's like you're adults. You could go treasure hunting whenever you want. You just, you just pay to do it. Like, it's not, like, it's not that hard. Anyone can do that. You just have to not give a shit and go out in the woods and dig Yeah, what if it was what if they had like more of a moral? They're just like you know we're we're too old to treasure hunt now like we can't Can't find tread and they they find that the treasure is their their friendship and camaraderie in the journey

I'm the first movie that was the first movie I Guess it was, yeah. They were all on the beach at the end and they were like damn, we really are goonies. And the parents were like, you're fine! Yeah, and I have new friends now too, Mom. Like that kind of thing. Honestly, they probably just did it again.

But they're older. I don't know. But! This relates absolutely nothing to the video. They're older. I don't know But Uh-huh this relates absolutely nothing right now. I love these segues. They're always good, but yeah this relates nothing to what you're saying Here's another thing. I want to talk about great. Yes, please do so before before we recorded this Jesse talked about buying Waffles that are made out of fruit. It's true. I was trying to be healthy and so I got like fruit based waffles that are made out of fruit. It's true. I'm trying to be healthy and so I got like fruit based waffles. Don't ask questions. I don't really have answers is what I'm saying. Yeah, it does say here that they are made with whole wheat flour so those, I think that's

keeping them together. Yo, no, clearly, clearly they're, I mean like they're not 100% fruit. That's not a waffle. That's just fruit shaped like a waffle Yeah But then we got into the discussion of toasters then we got into the insane Toasters that now exist which are just iPhone screens. Yes, so you pick your toast Press it and it like it's like the all one two three or four it's like why do we need this we don't yeah what what Grindr is trying to say is I was

having an old man moment where I was yelling that if you can't figure out one two three four as settings on your toaster that you need pictures of toast to make toast maybe toast is too hard for you yeah they got the six pictures of the toast which who's picking number six who's burning the shit out of their toast some guys dad for sure That's true I like you. I like it burnt. I like the char they got pastry. They got waffle. They got english muffin. They got gluten-free bread So and then there's two sides so you have two screens it's just, all it says to me is that this, you know,

there are various screen toasters that exist, but they're cheaper than regular toasters, which is to me, screams this can't be, this can't be good. There's like a bunch of good reviews though. Like everybody loves this. Works very well. It's ideal for toasting any type of bread. I genuinely believe most people don't know good toast. I must stress, there's toast,

like taking bread and drying it the hell out and burning it, which is what a lot of toasters do. And then there's toasters that make the outside crispy, but the inside still soft. And that's a real ass, like that's how you make it. That's how you're supposed to make it. And people, I think just, that's why a lot of people I think don't like toast cause it's just dry bread when they get it out of the toaster. But the thing is like, there's no, there's like no bad reviews.

But then again, I only see like eight reviews. That's what I'm saying. There's 11 reviews on this one that I'm looking at. I don't get it. I think it's goofy to have a screen on your toaster, but also I'm 40 years old. So what the hell do I know? Shit. Yeah.

If you're like a kid and you grew up with screens your entire life, maybe that's how you interact with stuff. You know what I mean? I get it, but we don't have to interact with literally everything like that. I think that's where the problem comes in It's like do we need a screen on everything because then that's more shit. That's gonna break I will agree that I think in things like cars Where stuff is starting to become more and more screen now. I'm like that seems

Not helpful because if a thing breaks then that's your screen and now you've got so many issues I see people where they have their rear view mirror is now a camera. Oh yeah. And I'm like, well, if the camera breaks, you can't even see behind you. Like it's not, it's just a mirror was fine. I think we went too far. Yeah. You start just doing stuff just to do it.

You're just like, this is cool. So I'll do it. But like the other way it was perfectly fine. I think that's the problem. I don't mind like the car computer screen. Like the one I got is pretty basic. You like got your music playing. You got your GPS on there.

Like whatever, you know, but like there's ones like the super new cars or like pesler shit, you'd like everything goes through that screen. You like start the car through it. It's like, this sucks. Yeah, it is. It is. That's one thing I don don't like but I will say With that said the mix of the two I do like having a screen

But also having knobs and buttons and things to flick. I love that. Yeah big fan. Yeah, I like the hybrid I like the blend. I think that's the the best possible way. Have you been to one of those I? Want to say grocery stores, but it's not like one of those convenient marts where they have that back row of fridges that have drinks in it. Except now on the front, they have screens that show you what drinks are in there. I'm like, they're used to just be windows. What do you mean? Yeah, they got that shit at Walgreens. That's crazy. That seems like such a waste. You could have paid your employees more than installing those. That's crazy. That seems like such a waste. You could have paid your employees more than installing those.

That's crazy to me. Because then I went to the Walgreens and now the screens are broken. Sometimes it shows shits in there when it's not. Sometimes you open it and the wrong stuff is there. They don't give a shit either. That's one of the things I noticed too is that in LA there are a lot of electric car parking ports and a lot of them have screens for advertisements and I was like okay I mean I guess that's how they can justify putting them in there and I promise you every single one is destroyed now. Either bashed or hit or mashed or out like powers out like yeah what did you think was gonna happen?

No one respects anything in the public space here in America. No one. I just saw somebody there's an article I just I typed it into Reddit or I typed in the internet but a red thing popped up and said the digital cooler screens at Walgreens made me watch an ad before it allowed me to know which door held frozen pizza yo that's so funny that's so dystopian that sucks it really is it is, I said gas stations do that shit too

yeah it's just, it's so dumb and I guarantee that's why they did it just to run ads That's sense somewhere someone at corporates making like we're like we're making 35 cents more per hour And they're like excellent gentlemen. We've done it again It's straight up like the Idiocracy oh The Gatorade company buys out it's almost worse to be honest because it's even more diabolical than just like you know

Brondo it's what plants crave dude It's like way worse because it's like more sinister like oh you want to get pizza Well, we're not gonna tell you which one's into you watch this ad for toaster strudels which one's into you watch this ad for toaster strudels. Dude, then they got the gas station ads when you're like pumping your gas. Those little screens come on and they're just like, welcome to gas station TV. Bum bum bum bum bum. They're just like playing these like shitty ads. Like shit podcast.

That happens in the rest of the world. I must know to everyone outside the US US when you go to get gas or petrol whatever at the gas station when you get there does a screen pop on that then plays a series of ads and or weather information I wonder if it's just like a city thing or because that I it feels very American yeah it's I just I don't know I feel like at this point though like a lot of the world is kind of the same I have to believe that's not I have to believe That we're doing like if the whole world has TV screens that play ads while they pump gas. I just don't I

Have no answers. That's insane. It makes no sense I still don't understand it and the whole point is they're like, well while you're stuck here, we're gonna make you watch our ads for things. Which is diabolical, but more importantly, I just go inside. Oh yeah. Yeah, you can just go inside. I start pumping the gas, I walk inside, I look around, I'm like, alright, and then I go back out. Yeah, it's... I hate it. It's just ads all over. Just everywhere. You can't escape it. To the point where people just tune it out, I think. Oh yeah, big time. When I take cabs sometimes, there are screens in the cabs playing ads. Oh yeah, I've seen those too. I just can't, it really is messed up that that's the like,

when you're here at Boston, remember to get Boston John subs. And you're like, what the hell? No. Like the, I don't know. I just, now I'm like craving the doors to just show you what's inside, which is like an insane thing because it's like, you would think that's just how it should be, but it's like, no, now they're just trying to sell you ads through drink doors that don't even work.

And it's like, I don't know. I hate it. I mean, it just financially, it makes no sense to me. I get being caught up on the hype of a thing, but installing screens in front of your door basically means that if the screen ever breaks now your doors kind of jank and defeats the purpose of what it was for yeah and they're not and then to replace it would cost even more than replacing just normal glass yeah and it's I mean if they couldn't run ads on it they wouldn't have done it

like that's just gotta be what it is so that's listen and that's why the digital toasters are bad yeah when your toaster starts running ad for you know bread you're done they're probably gonna do like it's some update or the ad starts playing over the the screen of your toaster. An ad will come up and be like smuckers jams. The best thing to go on your toast. It's, uh, but you know, it doesn't suck. I said it before.

All right, let's go to traffic out there. Oh man, traffic. Let me tell you, it is. Oh, it is. That's right. Um, if you're going out there, make sure you, you know, you got enough gas because you're going to be stuck. The amount of traffic out there. A lot of people getting in their final vacations before school and stuff starts up again. Because it's only a few weeks away from schools and stuff starting. So hey, you know, we're getting to the end of summer actually, even though we are still in summer and it is pretty hot out there

But this isn't the weather I'm not here to talk about weather But also at the gas station make sure you avoid those ads They're probably yelling at you about going back to school back to school supplies or something You might not even be in school to be honest, but you know, sometimes it's still good to pick up a notebook You know like hey, you know what they got notebooks out I need one pick it up even even though you're like 40. And maybe you'll write down all the things you gotta do. Maybe you've been meaning to do that.

So check that out. Thank you. I must stress, I had a dream this past week that was me at school on my first day, except it was just current me. So like old Jesse at school, it was very weird. And what was funny about it is that when I went there, everyone thought it was a teacher.

And I was like, no, I'm not a teacher. Could you imagine being a teacher? I'm a kid like you. And they were all just like, no, you're a teacher. I'm like, no, no, no, I'm a kid like you. I'm sure there's some deep psychology there I woke up it was like yeah that is a weird dream I had I've had dreams where I go back to school but usually I'm like, I never realized. I think I'm always like younger in the dream. Sure.

But maybe there might be a few where I was like, I'm too old for that. I don't know. That was weird. I was there in my mind to be a student on my first day, but everyone thought I was a teacher and I was like, I'm not a teacher being a teacher, be stupid. Yet I was a teacher in real life. So I'm sure again, I'm sure there's something going on there in my mind that's like Jesse you were never good enough to be a teacher you're always just a baby you know like

one of those things something a psychologist would be like yikes dude yeah that's they say oh man we've never seen this dream before. This guy's a mess, yeah. Well, that's the traffic. Okay, let's go to sports. That's actually the weather. The weather! I just really want to go to sports, you know? Yeah, you just really want to go to sports.

By the way, somebody was asking with sports, I think we've had this before, but they're like, like you always say this team's in first this team's in first Why are so many teams in first? It's because they're broken down into divisions Yes And many of those divisions make up a conference and then the winner of each conference goes and plays in the championship So there's actually like numerous ways you can be in first So there's like the team that's first in the conference, the team that's first in their division, the stuff like that.

So that's why. Anyway, we're talking the weather. Yes. Well, you referenced sports. How did you do well like this dude? What's, wow. That's great question. Let's see.

Today we've got Lazi Romania. The little S with the comma under is pronounced like the sh in she So Lashi Romania in the cultural hub of the country it has one of the oldest universities in Romania as well It was built in 1896 Alexandru Lone Cusa University, and it is a great university city. Oh wait it's an I it's Iyashi. It's not an L at all. It is so very clearly an I. You thought they just had a thing that started with a lowercase L? Like we love our town so much it begins with a lowercase L. It didn't look like that on YouTube. I guess that would make sense

that the proper name would be it. Oh listen I okay, we're moving on. I must stress really quickly based on the initial photos. I see It looks kind of like the grounds keeping at Disney Disneyland. Oh, yeah, I can see that. That's pretty wild I don't know what the deal with this town is but it's whimsical. I'm here for this All right, the weather currently is 75 degrees Fahrenheit feels like 75 degrees Fahrenheit humidity 73 percent pressure 26.69 inches nice visibility 10 miles 543 a.m.. Sunrise 848 p.m.. Cianciet winds 4 miles an hour 2.66 UV index 0 with a waxing crescent moon

10 day dew point 66 UV index zero with a waxing crescent moon. 10 day. It is looking like Monday 93 mostly sunny. But Tuesday we got 72 massive temperature drop some scattered strong storms. Then we got 75 Wednesday with some clouds. Thursday 79 sunny, Friday 81 mostly sunny. Saturday 83 sunny, 81 mostly sunny Saturday 83 sunny Sunday 88 sunny and Monday 88 mostly sunny. Yo I'm in shock I'm in shock right now I don't know what

I expected from Romanian food. Mm-hmm. But with that said, this city seems to be rocking. The first place I see is a burger restaurant called Vivo. And I was about to be like, Vivo, that's a stupid name for a burger restaurant. Then I looked at the burgers and was like, yo, I'd eat the hell out of that. And then next to that is a place called salsa, which they're serving. which they're serving Horitos they're serving like actual Mexican looking food

which for Europe is shocking to me and then next to that is fire ribs and that looks like some good ass ribs oh yeah I see fire ribs I was like what the hell

and then they got like all sorts of places nearby where I'm just like they got a pizza place where the pizza looks like pizza I'm just in shock they've an Oxford pub they like yo am I sleeping on this city maybe you are actually you're killing it is that how you say that this place they got a place called little Texas get the fuck out of here little Texas dude little Texas looks delicious you're gonna find it I clicked on McDonald's there's an old Romanian man eating oh my god there's a there's a restaurant called veranda which it is on a veranda, but the food looks so good

What what is this this? You know what this has all the markings of a college town Oh, yeah, I guess it does it has all the markings of like it has great food that appears to be pretty cheap and Yeah, this place rocks. I think it's the most excited you've been for a location. It got me. It got like everything, everything I'm clicking on looks awesome.

There isn't a loser in the bunch. Yeah, all of those look really good. See what's this? CC residence, winery, Club 20, bamboo 20 bamboo again I have to believe it's cuz it's college town every college town has good food every single one and it may not be high like high class like sometimes you just find like great burger places or whatever but every college town has great food it all does look really good and there's a lot of places. Yeah I'm looking for a stinker and I can't find any. Everything just I'm like yo that

looks good, that looks good and again I'm clicking on the weird pizza places thinking I'm gonna see one that has like a jank pizza. No! Everything looks amazing! I'm in shock. Unexpected Romania. Unexpected. I clearly don't know enough about Romania. I feel like I don't either, but now I'm learning. Yo, they got uh, they got Schnitzel House. This is, yeah, this place rocks. Yeah, this place is great. Again, I must stress, the last time I thought about Romania, this is my favorite story, shout out to all Romanians. Uh, when I was in Poland, it was in Warsaw. This would have been like, I don't know, 2013 maybe. And I'm walking around. It was after I went to a CD project thing and I was in a

bar under a bridge in a dungeon. And it was great. And these two dudes from Romania showed up like, we heard you were in the area. I'm like, this isn't Romania. They're like, yeah, no, we drove up here. And at one point, one of the guys went missing and we were like, we got to find him. It is 4 a.m. in Warsaw. He's not from here. So we walked around the streets. I was like, guys, I have a flight in three hours. I have to go. Like I have to go. And I was like, please let me know if you find him. And then I got a message on, I think like a DM on Twitter that was like, yeah, no, he was in the hotel sleeping.

He showed up. And I was like, is he okay? He's like, yeah, no, he does that all the time though. I was like, y'all go hard. I was like, so what happened to him? What'd he do? He's like, oh no, he just went like for a walk. Like at 4 a.m. in Warsaw? He's like, yeah, he does that.

That is... that's pretty wild. Yeah, so you know, I learned, I learned there are levels of competition I can have. When I go overseas and people are like, drink with us, drink with us, I'm like, okay, as the American I have I have to stand up for my nation sure But there's some levels I cannot compete with Romania they were like no my friend Do not drink as much as us. We will be fine. Okay, and That's the letter Let's go actually to sports now Yes sports

Yes, sports. Duh duh duh duh duh duh duh. Duh duh duh duh duh duh duh. Currently, sports. NFL training camp starting up, getting ready for the preseason starts next week. Buckle up. Buckle up? We got baseball. We got the Blue Jays

in first, the Tigers in first, the Astros in first, the Mets in first, the Cubs and Brewers tied in first, and the Dodgers in first We also got the MLB trade deadline this week. We're gonna get a bunch of trades already got some NBA NHL still in their off seasons and let's see anything else crazy happening over here I think women's soccer has been happening looks like England wins 3-1 on penalties and wins Euro 2025.

Spain's curse continues. So there they are. That's really funny that I think that's what's happening is a really good way to start that. I think this is what's going on, but I don't know. Yeah. I mean, I don't know, but it seems like it. And the sports. Okay, what is our fact of the day?

Fact of the day... The first stroller was supposed to be pulled by a goat. I'm sorry, what? (*laughs*) That's right. William Kent, an English architect, invented the first stroller for the Duke of Devonshire in 1733. It's like, my lord, I know you hated having the maids push the baby around

in pram, so instead I've developed a goat-pooling cart for your child For the Duke of Devonshire But upper-class parents were hardly expected to put effort in the transporting their child around well So can't designed his model to be pulled by a small animal like a goat, pony, or dog. That's hilarious. That's so funny that they're like, you expect us to do work like care for our

child? No, let the goat do it. Yeah, that's a classic royalty move. Classic royalty. Classic royalty move. That's your fact of the day. Okay, it's a good fact I love that that's a good thing who has come to us with tears in their eyes dear illustrious sirs I come to you with tears in my eyes and an onion on my belt what was a popular trend there in your childhood that you wish would come back. Oh, that's a good one. That is a good one. Oh man. I either slap wristbands.

Oh yeah. Love a good slap wristband. Or ridiculous. This is maybe like an age thing and I'm not involved with this anymore, but like remember when, I don't know, early 90s, this maybe you don't remember when, but there was a time period where there was like a arms race for squirt guns. At first it was like little squirt guns.

Like the super soakers. Yeah, there was super soakers. And then they had like the super soaker extreme and had like eight nozzles. Yeah, there was like this, they kept making them bigger and bigger and bigger and crazier and crazier and crazier. I wish they would have kept going with that.

That would have been, that would have been like artillery. Yes! Fire the artillery yes fire water balloons out of a cannon that'd be amazing now those things may exist and I just missed out on them because I aged out of it but that was very fun back in the day is if you go to a water gun fight in the park and there be teams and then one kid would bring like the super soaker 8500 that hooks up to a hose and you're like Oh, we can't beat that guy. That was amazing. I love that Yeah, that was pretty great I'm trying to learn trends dude, I would love crazy bones came back remember crazy bones

What is crazy? No, I don't remember that at all Maybe you were too old for that I think it was like mid late 90s what is really plastic these little plastic thingies you could play games with you collect them there's a bunch of different ones like little heads they came in little packages I don't remember any of that yeah that definitely seems like a I was too old for that moment yeah separate I've been like by like nine or ten at this point. So it's like perfect crazy bone age. I think Don't nine or ten that's perfect crazy bone age

Perfect crazy bone perfect crazy bones oh, that's something that dude I I would love if the trend came back of, we talked about it the other week, with all the cafes and the old Starbucks Panera type of vibe, or the old coffee shop in general with that cozy, whimsical aesthetic, instead of everything being modern gray. Blah. I will say, yeah, restaurants in general. Now they're all kind of boxes. And before they had like a vibe to it. When I say restaurants, my bad. I don't mean like good restaurants.

I mean like the shitty ones on the side of the road that, you know, like a McDonald's. Now they're all just brown. When they used to have, you know, red and yellow and like Taco Bell used to look festive and now Taco Bell's a white building. Yeah, like Popeyes used to have like the Louisiana kitchen stuff. It was like a building looked like it was in Louisiana, like the little balcony and everything. And now it's just like, here's a big white brick building. Okay Wendy's Wendy's had the sunroom they had the plants and show over

they had the salad bar yeah and now it's just like big modern brick it sucks sucks that does genuinely suck those yeah there was definitely a lot of stuff that felt like it had more character and then at some point someone determined character was kitchen stupid. So now even logos are like, like games workshop change their logo. Oh, I did.

They, I think I just read that where it went from the big yellow, like goofy lettering to now it's just says games. Oh yeah. It just says now it just says warhammer. It's just a bunch of, it just says Warhammer on the front now. It's just white letters from like, Time's New Roman fun. Yeah, but someone was like, that's cool, sleeker is better.

Like, is it? Is it? Yeah, I don't think so. I mean, there's probably certain instances where it is better, but like, I would say a lot of the times it does. It just loses the character, like you said, it's just it's bland. It's boring, nothing memorable about it. Like when you think of Games Workshop and you see the big yellow red letters, you're like, yeah, that's pretty cool.

But then it's just like Warhammer, Times New Roman, Basic Ice. Like, OK, whatever. Yeah, I understand marketing and I get what they're trying to do but there's something fun about the marketing being kind of goofy and old I don't know I don't know that's just old man ranting yeah I mean it's just I think it'll change eventually it's like any trend or fad or people got really into modern everything and I feel like it'll it'll shift back. Oh 100 like the sex yeah, yeah, so

There we go then Let's see we got Dear illustrious sirs with the shards of fallen angels in my eyes Go on yes yes what is the one conspiracy, superstition, or otherwise weirdly controversial belief that your co-host would for sure disagree with?

for sure disagree with? yeah I'm trying to think this is tough, that you would for sure disagree with, cause I feel like no matter what You're open enough to be like yeah, it's possible We might have been stumped on this one yeah like if this was like Alex or math is that I'd be like all right Yeah, this is probably be crazy. Yeah, I would say the year 2013 was a good year

He's convinced. It was the best year ever. I'm like Alright, and then um for math is that aliens aren't real Yes, that's easy. That's super easy. Yeah, those are easy, but like for us It's definitely a lot harder, so I'm not really superstitious. I Don't think I have many insane Beliefs in terms of like conspiracies or anything. And I don't think I really have any controversial beliefs. This is tough. This is tough.

Yeah. I feel like for me, the answer would have to be that I'm not the cause of my own problems That's true, I would partially disagree with you on that, you know, I'd be like I don't know that's tough. I Would say I'd pick my physical therapy rehab program that Jesse laughed at earlier Okay, he doesn't agree with it. I I would say I'd pick my physical therapy rehab program that Jesse laughed at earlier. Okay. He doesn't agree with it. I mean, it was...

Yeah, you're right. You're right about that. So yeah, there we go. Listen, I got that rehab program from physical therapists online in 2025. Right, sure. that checks out I did in fact it's uh if anyone wants some good online physio physical therapy stuff look up I think it's sports physio yeah sports injury physio look up that channel really good pretty solid I like it a lot they even give you like stuff to follow along with plot oh that's the

other thing I changed my shoe inserts remember remember last week. I was like my insoles or whatever you did mention by us so I went to an actual like shoe place and they got they do like marathons and stuff the guy was like all right Let me see your arch, and he was like oh, yeah Those are way too big and then he's like here you go is the low arch like whatever and then I tried it And I was like oh, yeah, those are way too big. And then he's like, here you go, this is the low arch, like whatever, and then I tried it, and I was like, oh yeah, this is a lot better. And so I've been using those for like four or five days, and they are definitely better. So turns out, don't try to figure stuff out on your own.

That's what it boils down to. Really, really? You know what, maybe that's the thing I should have answered. Krendor's inability to just go to a professional and Figure stuff out on his own Well sometimes you go to professional. They're just like I don't know Like the doctor They're a doctor I don't know I

Learned went to the doctor with my knee and they're like, it's probably this. It'll be 50 bucks. I think alright. Did he offer any solutions or just say this is what this is? He said go to therapy. Because it helps. They're like if it doesn't get better in like six months we can do MRI. Pfft.

I have to believe that like most doctors at this point are just, oh, this guy just wants meds. Yeah, but I mean, to be fair, like, what do you, what do you think he's going to do? Be like, all right, I'll fix you up. Let me inject you with super drugs. You're like, oh shit. I mean, I would love that. Honestly, I would love if I went to a doctor instead of like, well, let's do a long drawn out process. They did. Look, I know it can happen this way. I live in LA. There are doctors for friends of mine

who are of the celebrity variety, who when they go see them, they don't get told, all right, we'll watch it and monitor. They get told, here's a bunch of drugs, take these, they'll fix you. I know this is true, because I've watched it happen. Like when people get colds Right and they're like well. I gotta be on set tomorrow

So I can't the doctor will be like all right here take these 15 pills And then we'll give you a shot of this and they show up, and they're like I'm doing great That's what I want I want that Yeah, I guess you have to be a millionaire, but like come on yeah, that's that's that's what I want I I want to go to doctor and the doctor to be like here, but like, come on. Yeah. That's, that's, that's what I want. I, I want to go to doctor and the doctor to be like, here, do this, do this, take this. You'll be good rather than, all right, let's monitor. And check back into six months. Now it's trash.

You want immediate solutions. Yes. If you look, if you're a doctor, you should be able to doctor house your way through that and be like well We have various options, and this is one of them. Let's go. Okay great. Yeah This is literally like the most American thing just like Doctor what am I what do I do to get healthy and they're like well you could you know get an exercise program and start eating Healthily like where's the super drugs? They're they're like alright let me call up my pharmacy rich friends the weight loss thing although I think it's hilarious that now anytime people

lose like lose weight they're like oh something is a hell of a drug I'm like alright some people are not using Ozempic yeah um but like ignoring that ignoring drugs for weight loss the idea of a doctor being like, okay do this this this and this I think that's much better Than a doctor being like well, you know, let's monitor your weight and we won't change things up too much I'd rather doctor be like, okay. All right tubs. Here's we're gonna do We're gonna do these four things and then we'll come back in two weeks and we'll see how that works And then we'll come back like that kind of thing. I'd rather have that from a doctor than, well, let's slowly monitor

and we'll ramp it up. Like, nah, nah, nah. Throw me in the deep end. Throw him in the deep end. And that's the dear illustrious sir. Oh, right, what is our big news story the day big news story of the day? Hey Halahassee police cuff and arrest Florida man dressed as Chuck E. Cheese while kids watch I saw the photo this week

It's really funny. It just looks like Chuck E. Cheese is being arrested a It's really funny, it just looks like Chuck E. Cheese is being arrested. A man dressed as Chuck E. Cheese was arrested Wednesday at the Kids Center on Sherr-Rode in Tallahassee. Jermell Jones was taken into custody on credit card theft and fraud charges, according to court documents. Since Jones' arrest, social media posts have circulated online commenting on kids being left traumatized after witnessing officers place handcuffs on the suspect who was wearing the classic Chuck E. Cheese costume. The posts have consisted of photos, videos showing Jones being taken

into custody while wearing the costume with the mascot head lying atop a TPD squad car after police escorted him out of the restaurant. As of Friday afternoon WCTV has not been able to obtain legal permission to share the now viral photos. Jones' arrest report revealed how incidents unfolded Chuck E. Cheese on Wednesday. I just, the fact they didn't ask him to take off the costume is hilarious.

Like they just, we're like, sir, we're gonna have to take you out. How did they get him in the car? I have so many questions. Or did the cops say, we don't want to ruin the illusion for the kids by pulling the head off. So we're gonna arrest Chuck E. Cheese. Which admittedly, out of all of the mascots, Chuck E. Cheese is the one I would expect to get arrested.

Oh yeah, plus there's probably some kids like, cool, he's getting arrested. Chuck E. Cheese has never been so cool! Jones' arrest report revealed how the incident unfolded. At about 7.30pm, an officer was dispatched to the Tallahassee location regarding stolen credit cards that had been fraudulently used. The victim told TPD officers outside Chuck E. Cheese that they'd hosted their child's birthday party at the establishment in June.

Following the party, they noticed a little more than $100 worth of fraudulent charges on the card. The victim told investigators they obtained surveillance video at a store where one of the charges was made and they immediately recognized Jones as a Chuck E. Cheese employee. Authorities confirmed Jones matched the description and spotted him at Chuck E. Cheese from the front entrance wearing regular clothes According to the arresting officer Jones looked very nervous. He gazed at me with wide eyes and squared shoulders in a tense manner He walked away and returned wearing the Chuck E Cheese costume Wait, so he did this on purpose?

He might think he might have or do you think he was like if I put on the costume they won't know it's me They maybe a little both He walked away and returned wearing the costume and as the officer approached the mouse clad Jones He said Chucky come with me Chucky PPD officers said Jones briefly resisted by bracing his arms toward his chest, but was eventually handcuffed and escorted out. Upon searching Jones, law enforcement found receipts linked to the fraudulent charges and a small amount of marijuana. Jones was booked into the Leon County Jail.

I love that story. But also I'm confused about how quickly they reacted to fraudulent charges I've had some fraudulent charges and the cops were like yeah, all right, whatever Yeah, it's like oh, that's happening a lot Too bad yeah, all right well. I'm glad someone's doing some sort of police work, but yeah fact that it's Chuck E. Cheese is hilarious It is fine. That's so you're coming with me Chuck E. Just like no no no The kids are like
