Starting point is 00:00:00 About to get into a brand new episode of Klein Alley Show, but first let's tell you about our good friends at the finest airport that ever was and ever will be. The San Bernardino International Airport. Especially when there's summer travel plans, it can get expensive at these airports. That's why you gotta go to this airport where parking is just five bucks a day. Plus you got those easy trips, San Francisco or Provo, Utah. Maybe you didn't plan anything this summer. See how easy it is. Don't be one of those people who has to pack your patience. Go to San Bernardino International Airport. Okay, enough shilling. Now it's time to get into a brand new episode of Klein Alley Show. This is the world famous K-Rock. Hey, Fernando.
Starting point is 00:00:36 Yo, good morning. Good morning. You are the 20th caller, so you get to go ride the new fast and furious Hollywood Drift roller coaster at Universal Studios. Plus, you get to spend the whole day at the park with three friends. Congratulations. That's awesome, guys. Thank you so much. Thank you for waking up with us and hold on so we can get you those tickets. once again, we'll have more tickets for you to go to Universal tomorrow. If you're waiting though to go to see The Killers

So win your way in this hour and then again next hour if you've been paying attention to the show so you can take advantage
Starting point is 00:01:16 of the Klein Alley Show Quiz. Also this hour joining us from the great Cage the Elephant, we have at least one of the schultz brothers will we have two that's a mystery yet to be determined i know that kind of left it vague one maybe two but uh caves the elephant some portion of that band will be by to play some new music for you on k-rock this hour so get ready for that and so much more also your jason report is upcoming we are in the greatest stretch of months of the year and we will prove that to you and we check in with the jason chopper and that is next on k-rock
Starting point is 00:01:47 caves the elephant will be joining us in the studio in moments so if you're not watching us on youtube you could be we are there right now as well but thanks for tuning into k-rock of course tickets to uh the festival in santa monica coming up later this hour and we'll find out all the events that you could be participating in through the month of july august september october november a stretch of months affectionately known as jason with a new jason report from postmaster johnny in just a moment but lebron actually has made the announcement alley so here we go i know a lot of people waiting to find out this is the announcement after careful consideration I have decided that I'm ready to announce
Starting point is 00:02:23 that I, too, have never been intimate with Jake. Thank you for sharing that announcement that I've also never been intimate with Jake the Nerd. Neither has any other NBA player. Get that man a shirt. It's time now as we check into the chopper high above all the things you could be doing this month and the five months that lay ahead during Jason.
Starting point is 00:02:45 If you're single and you plan on going out on a lot of dates, then this Jason report is for you. I'm talking about you, Jake the Nerd. So in July, you have time to take your girl to the OC Fair, go get some fried food, or you can go see that new movie, The Odyssey. So plan your poop breaks accordingly. Both incredible options and great places for first dates. But if your date's really cool, then she'll be fine with going to see the 20th anniversary of Disney Pixar's Cars at Street Food Cinema.
Starting point is 00:03:10 It's going to be so sick, especially if she loves the movie Cars. But if your girl loves shopping, then you're going to want to take her to like the Rose Bowl Flea Market on September 13th. It could be a little pricey, though, because you've got to pay to park, and then you've got to pay to, like, get in. So mind your wallet, okay, Jake? Okay, so by, like, October, you should kind of know if this girl's going to be your girlfriend or not. And if you do plan to date her, my cousin is getting married in Santa Barbara on October 11th. And you can come to that if you're serious about this girl. And finally, November, you can Netflix and chill with your girlfriend and watch The Adventures of Cliff Booth hitting Netflix on November 24th.
Starting point is 00:03:43 It's a spinoff of Once Upon a Time in Hollywood with Brad Pitt. And that's what's coming up in Jason. It's weird because the helicopter kind of dipped out there, cut out the middle. And then it restarted? I was hoping that thing was going to smash. I do like the girlfriend theme, though.
Starting point is 00:03:57 Yeah, it's a good theme if you've got a lot of dates to plan in the foreseeable future. So there's all things you could be doing over the months of Jason. I like the advice of your girlfriend will enjoy the movie Cars, but only if she likes the movie Cars.
Starting point is 00:04:11 Right. Oh, yeah, if she's cool. And most hot girls love the movie Cars. It's proven. I would disagree with that strongly. No, no, no. You ask any 20-year-old right now, they'd be like, oh, hell yeah, I want to go see Cars. It's like the It movie that hot girls really love right now.
Starting point is 00:04:27 Because of that song, Life is a Highway, Rascal Flatts. Remember that? Yeah. It's a bop. They love it. All the girls are into that song? Yeah, it's like a meme right now, and they kind of are really into it. That's why they're playing it at this outdoor movie.
Starting point is 00:04:38 Where do hot girls hang out? Air One, the gym. why don't you go over there later today and try to get a legitimate answer as to how many of them are a fan of the movie Cars. Alright, I'll come back with like three. I got you. Thanks for the
Starting point is 00:04:55 effort, buddy. If you ask ten hot women, are they a fan of the movie Cars? I think you'll get maybe one that goes, it's fine. I don't think any, I think you're insane. I think your theory is wrong. Well, maybe they're Ratatouille girls, but I mean like either way Ratatouille, Wally, Cars, like
Starting point is 00:05:11 all those three were like trifectas back in the day. Right. They were a fan of them when they were four. No, I was like eight when that came out. Right. Okay. No, double it, man. I was eight. I was this many. When we get back, assuming they didn't turn around. Oh, it's 562.
Starting point is 00:05:27 It's true. Cars is summer Disney movie and Cars Land at Disneyland is summer. And yes, I am a hot girl. Bada bing. All right. That's one. You only have two left. Yeah, two left, man. Find two by tomorrow at this time. When we get back, Cage the Elephant stopping into the K-Rock Studios
Starting point is 00:05:43 and some new music for you and then tickets to a festival happening right here at the Santa Monica Beach and that's all coming up after this. Some damn fine caged elephant on K-Rock and as we welcome the Schultz Brothers back to the K-Rock studios, of course, let's just go over some of the many, many massive hits
Starting point is 00:05:58 they've given us over the years. Tell me in the back room, tell me when it's over. We've already got that montage ready to go, guys. Welcome back to K-Rock. Please say hi to Cage the Elephant. Welcome, guys. Hey, how's it going? Thanks for being here.
Starting point is 00:06:29 Hey, what's up? Nice to see you again. Last time we did this was downstairs. You played a nice little intimate show for some K-Rock listeners. Then I think we did a fun thing at the El Rey. And then you got tapped by a little band by the name of Oasis to co-headline with them, which must have been nice. How did that whole thing go down?
Starting point is 00:06:46 Was there a phone call, a text? We, like everyone else, just heard rumors about the tour on social media, and I started writing them letters immediately. Obsessive with magazine cutouts and everything. Every truck stop that we stopped at, we got a postcard and sent it to them. I mean, backstage, though, I spent a little time. Did they really get along, or was it all an act? I mean, you must have seen a little bit backstage.
Starting point is 00:07:15 No, I think they're getting along. What would you even know about what it's like to tour constantly with a brother? That you secretly hate. We never see each other on tour. Yeah, totally. You stay in different wings. Yeah, exactly. But in the course of your career together, has there ever been a moment where there was friction and you said, oh, no, I don't want to go the way of the Oasis Brothers?
Starting point is 00:07:39 Has there ever been a moment where there's been friction between us? I actually threw a pizza at Matt one time, which actually I feel very, very bad about. It's a waste of a perfectly good pizza. Yeah. I don't remember that. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:53 What was the reason? Yeah, I did. I saw it at your party. Yes, you do. I don't remember that. Yes, you do. I remember the time he threw me through a glass table, though.
Starting point is 00:08:00 Oh, God. As adults or children? That glass table was a pizza table. Oh, man. Delicious. That had a pizza on it. Yeah, you guys are, I love the relationship because from a young, young age, back when you guys were, you know, young bloodsuckers before you were the monsters you are today, you would fight a lot. And I believe, Brad, you said that you would almost always win the fights, the physical fights you would always win, right?
Starting point is 00:08:25 Did I say that? Pretty easily. Yeah, so Brad used to do this thing that when my parents, first off, we have to let the audience know the bloodsuckers was our, that was our neighborhood gang. Brad was the leader And I was his He was like the outsider I was his faithful sidekick Why did I just like
Starting point is 00:08:47 Envision you as like Brad you want me to hit him with a stick You want me to go hit him with a stick So he would tell you what to do And you would go out and create the trouble Why am I being painted as Very evil right now We got a lot of stories
Starting point is 00:09:01 We talked to Matt a half an hour before you guys came in To make sure to get all the stories right Really get him good. So you guys would fight him. What would Matt do? What would Brad do, Matt? Oh, yeah, no. So when Mom and Dad would go to the grocery store, if they stepped out, as soon as the
Starting point is 00:09:16 door shut and they locked the deadbolt, Brad would turn around and go, torture time. Do you think your parents had a favorite? Do you think they have a favorite and they'll never admit it? Yeah, it's our youngest brother. Really? Yeah. No, no, no. Not Daniel.
Starting point is 00:09:32 Jeremy. Yeah, we used to call him the prince. Jeremy, yeah. Yeah. Because, I mean, you have a couple of kids. Jeremy's great, though. We love our brothers. There's two other brothers.
Starting point is 00:09:41 Not musical. Oh, yeah. They're both musical. Just not as musical. No, no, no. They are. They're actually better than us. That's the thing.
Starting point is 00:09:50 You can stand and hold the tambourine in the corner. They're not opening for a week. We just steal. They've actually written every single song we've ever put out. He literally just took the joke out of my mouth. And this is why we get in fights. This is why I throw a pizza at you. I do find that interesting because you grew up, and we've talked about this before, but very religious.
Starting point is 00:10:08 And when you wanted to listen to Nirvana, when you wanted to listen to Pearl Jam, you had to do this in hiding. The same way that people will hide cigarettes and then put scope in their mouth before they go home so their parents don't realize they were smoking. You would have to listen to this music in secrecy, correct? We actually did all four. We would put scope, smoke a cigarette, and listen to the music, all in secrecy. And if you got busted, like, humming a Nirvana, like, all of a sudden you're singing, like, a Nirvana song, like your dad's like, what is that noise? It wasn't so much Nirvana. it was more or less Green Day.
Starting point is 00:10:34 Oh, really? My dad caught us with the Green Day tape. It was going to get snapped, you know, because all the cuss words. You couldn't have cuss words. That is the devil. I mean, that makes sense. The devil's music.
Starting point is 00:10:46 And that's actually the truth. He did snap a Green Day CD in half with the pair of pliers. Which one was it? And I'm like, did you have to use the pliers? You couldn't just snap it with your hand? You weren't strong enough to do that. Torture time. Really let it sink in.
Starting point is 00:11:00 Drive it home. I'm like, you made me use the prize. Get the needle nose. I wonder what other great albums of yours they've ruined over the years to prove a point. My dad used to snap all our albums in front of us. Oh, I know, I know. We'd get our first record, Cage the Elephant. He'd be like, I wrote that song.
Starting point is 00:11:20 But it's like throwing someone's cigarettes down the toilet. It's like you're just going to get more cigarettes. What's the point of... Thank you, happy birthday on our birthday. Snapped it. Well, you had a lot of six studio albums. Yeah, in his defense, he was just trying to protect us from Satan. I get it.
Starting point is 00:11:35 Well, Liz, we have a new song. We're excited because we're going to play a new song, Beaches in Tennessee. And before we play this on K-Rock, because it has been two years since you've released new music. The last one that we chatted about was Neon Pill and obviously all the stuff that you were dealing with when you wrote that song. But this is kind of picks up where that left off, right? Because this was mental health based as well. Well, you know, with the whole album, Neon Pill, we had written most of that material when I was very sick. And just for the audience, which most people know this, but a lot of people do.
Starting point is 00:12:08 I went through a mental crisis a couple of years back and it honestly saved my life. So being arrested saved my life, which I was hospitalized for three months. But we wrote a lot of that material while I was very unwell. So finishing the record was kind of like trying to decipher this weird psychosis-induced narrative. And this album is the first material that I've been able to look back on it from a very stable place and a healthy place and kind of heal and move on and move towards the future. Was there ever a moment that it felt a little conflicted, where you felt conflicted about whether to share this personal experience? You know, I mean, obviously being vulnerable in that way can be difficult and you're sharing such an intimate part of your personal life. No, I mean, honestly, it's, I enjoy the pain.
Starting point is 00:13:04 or you just feel like your life is you know you i think you also are you guys are so connected to your fans where you may feel like you have to share i feel like this is part of your life and part of your life is sharing what your personal life entails i feel like the only person i feel like the only way to get to material that that's real and that resonates is to is to be transparent in your own writing so yeah so we have a single but we also have new music more new music on the way yeah we uh we're kind of putting on the finishing touches on the album right now and um we're gonna play every song right now we're gonna play we are gonna play beaches in tennessee and i will say already i think the sound is so it sounds so uh uplifting it sounds happy it's it's i know
Starting point is 00:13:52 it came from uh the mental health stuff the other side of it but it sounds like uh this is maybe You were talking about just the surviving part of it, getting through on the other side. And it's pretty, it's a great, I mean, it's a great rock song, which some people have not yet heard. So let's go ahead and give this a play on KROQ. Anything you want to say before we hit play? Yeah, it's just like, I feel like this song for us was reclaiming that ability to write about turbulent times in life in a very kind of, like you said, lighthearted way and have fun with it. Beaches in Tennessee, Cage the Elephant on KROQ. Come back more with the Schultz Brothers next on KROQ.
Starting point is 00:14:27 Oh, man, with a live cough at the end of your song, it sounded great. Beaches in Tennessee, Cage the Elephant on K-Rock in the studio right now, Brad Schultz, Matt Schultz, and you guys have given us so many great opportunities to spend with our listeners, and they always want to say they appreciate you. Hey, Klein and Ali Schultz,
Starting point is 00:14:41 thank you so much for letting me come to watch Cage the Elephant at the Sound Space. Had a great time. Love you guys. Ali and I were having this conversation before you came in here, but we agree on not a lot. One of our favorite live bands to watch is always you,
Starting point is 00:14:55 And I think a lot of it had to do at the beginning, Matt, with the fact that you would pretty much put your life at risk every show. You didn't care. Broken bones, broken body parts. Jumping off of stuff. Do you plan on, as you're now releasing new music, I would imagine there's an album perhaps to follow and then more touring. Do you plan on taking care of your body more now or no? Do you continue to want to go ahead and prove that you are unbreakable? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:15:20 We'll leave that up to the future. I mean, the amount of scaffolding he's climbed, speaker, it's almost like when you are performing, you have no control. It looks to us like you've lost complete control. Yeah, pretty much. Yes, I have. I'm unhinged. As a fan, it's a lot of fun to watch. It's funny, though, because now that I'm a father, my son's one years old, and I want to take care of myself these days.
Starting point is 00:15:51 So, no, no, no, definitely still be going out there and going hard for sure. Did you, for the first birthday party, do all the traditional smash cake and all that kind of stuff? Oh, yeah, yeah. It's like some of that stuff I was like, no, I'm not going to do any of that. And then first birthday rolls around and you're like, well, I have to get the smash cake. I have to do all the things. We've been so strict on making sure that we do all the things that our doctor is telling us and all that stuff, which I know that's what you're supposed to do.
Starting point is 00:16:18 But anyways, so he hadn't had any sugar. And when he had his first bite of cake He's like throwing up in his mouth He's like As long as you see their eyes dialing Like whoa This is a crazy experience You see that junky look in their eyes
Starting point is 00:16:34 Like you've been holding this for me for a year You're like it gets way better than that dude Yeah but he's definitely He takes after me He's like already You know the little play pins And he's like doing flips over it So we're like bro come on
Starting point is 00:16:46 He takes after you Brad is there a time frame I know that this song, we're letting it, marinating in it now, but there are other songs that have been written, recorded yet? Yeah, we're pretty much finished with the record. We have some, like, there's a couple songs that we're finishing up right now, but for the most part, the album's done. Well, 562 said, I have seen Cage three times, you guys are badass, always memorable, and saw you guys at the El Rey, and remember Brad breaking his guitars on stage, it was crazy. How many guitars do you think you've lost that you've either given away, broken, or otherwise? Oh, my gosh.
Starting point is 00:17:21 I don't know. Actually, I had the most awkward guitar giveaway of all times about three days ago. There was a kid that was, like, holding a sign saying, Brad, you know, can I have your guitar? Oh, my God. Balls on that kid. Wait, wait, wait. Entitled. I start running down the stairs of the stage, and I don't know why,
Starting point is 00:17:44 But I was like, yeah, I'm going to jump the last four stairs. I jumped off the last four stairs. And as soon as I hit the ground, my knees went to jello. Oh, no. And I literally was like, I looked like Gumby. He pulls up a sign that says, never mind. And everything just slowed down. And I was like, no, your knees aren't going to give out.
Starting point is 00:18:09 And then I was like, no, your knees aren't going to give out. and then I went head first and seal slid and stopped right at the kid's feet. And I looked up at him like I was terrified. I was like, you can keep your guitar, sir.
Starting point is 00:18:25 Did you still give it to him? No, he said, I don't want it anymore. He just helped you up. He said, you're not as cool as I thought you were, buddy. You keep your guitar,
Starting point is 00:18:35 you loser. As always, we... Vinny spit on me. We wrap up every interview here at KROQ with not one, but two epic questions for KG Elephant. Here we go. Two, two, two epic, epic questions.
Starting point is 00:18:49 Brad Schultz, Matt Schultz, KG Elephant. MK Rock in the studio right now. Epic question number one. Allie, give it to them. Which state makes the best barbecue and why? Of all the barbecue you've ever eaten in, I'm sure it's been a lot. I'm going to go with, I think, Texas, Austin, Texas.
Starting point is 00:19:11 I know Austin's not a state, but I said Texas first. It's a simple question, Brad. Texas, specifically Austin. In the spirit of our new single, I'm going to say Tennessee. Smart, smart. Epic question number two. National Tennessee. Epic question number two.
Starting point is 00:19:28 Is Austin considered a state? I don't think they're going to get this one. It's a toughie. This is the real question, though. When you're in Los Angeles, as you are right now, what is one thing you must do? Is there a thing you do when you're here that you go, at least we're going to get to do that?
Starting point is 00:19:47 I used to go to, and I should do this, it's been a minute, but I used to, every time I came to LA, I would go to the Electric Banana and get a tattoo. Oh. What was the last tattoo you got there, do you remember? I think the last one I got was this little knife guy. Oh, cool.
Starting point is 00:20:01 Running after the tiger. He's going to stop him, you know? And do you say, can I just have a little knife guy, you make it up? Yeah, yeah. I'd like a little clown that's holding a dagger running towards a tiger
Starting point is 00:20:17 you make up the rest his name is Austin choose your own adventure well guys congratulations on the new music thank you for coming here to share with us we look forward to hearing more when the album comes out and when we return
Starting point is 00:20:33 we will get you into a festival that sadly Cage is not playing at but it's happening in Santa Monica on the beach And you will see one of the people from this band there, Jack White, will be at this show. So if you want your tickets, call her 20 right now. We get you into the Beach Alley. What is this thing called? Ocean Way.
Starting point is 00:20:48 Ocean Way. That's what it's called. It's a new festival. There's a beach involved. We'll give away your tickets next on KRO. They're at Klein Alley Show. You'll be seeing Jack White of that band joining forces with many others, including Sublime and the Killers. It's all going to be happening in Santa Monica.
Starting point is 00:21:02 You have to wait until September, but that'll get here real quick. Because September 26th, it is called Ocean Way Festival. And we've got you in right now. If you are the 20th caller, which puts us on Kelly. Good morning, Kelly. Yeah. You are caller 20. Woo!
Starting point is 00:21:20 So get ready. Thank you so much. You're very welcome. Bring that energy to the beach with you so you can enjoy The Killers, Jack White, Sublime, and many others. And you'll be the first ever, the inaugural Ocean Way Festival. Congratulations. Hold on one second. That woo sounded forced, by the way.
Starting point is 00:21:35 Thank you. Is that a real woo or a fake? Omar said that was not an authentic woo. Yeah. Oh, I'm sorry. You're cutting out. Was your woo an authentic woo? Or was that like a...
Starting point is 00:21:48 It's so authentic, you have no idea. Then do it again. Excited. Woo! That one sounded better. I hear what Omar's saying, though. She went down on the first woo. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:56 I was just like, huh. There's a woo. And the second one was like a real, like, letting out. But also, she could be in an office. Are you in an office? Are you in your car? Where are you right now? Yes, I'm at a public school.
Starting point is 00:22:06 So it is summer, but I still have to keep it sort of low. Why are you at school? Because I work all summer. I work in a textbook room. Oh, terrible. Oh, my. What is that, by the way? That sounds made up.
Starting point is 00:22:23 That's the first woo I've ever heard. Probably the first woo in the history of a textbook room ever. The books are like, shh. I'm telling you, I'm the textbook room lady. And I have way too much energy to be stuck in a textbook room with no window. Is that a punishment? Like, that sounds like something I would get in trouble for at school. You could assign to the textbook room.
Starting point is 00:22:42 You'll be going to the textbook room. You know what? It kind of is a punishment. If you saw the room I'm in, for sure. Big punishment. Can you pick a book at random and read us something from it so that today can be an educational show? Oh, good idea. Sure.
Starting point is 00:22:56 Would you like an author of some sort? No, God. That sounds terrible. Catcher in the Rye. I've heard of it. Catcher in the Rye. Oh, that's bad. God, it's always Catcher in the Rye, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:23:07 It is. When are we going to get off that book? It's lame. Move along. I mean, that was when they only had like three books available. Jesus. That was one of them. There's always one dude who's obsessed with it.
Starting point is 00:23:16 Go ahead. Whenever you're ready, take us through any excerpt you choose. Okay. Let's see. I used to caddy once in a while just to make some dough. Boring. All right, the textbook room is terrible. Hold on.
Starting point is 00:23:31 Hold on one second. We accept your original woo. You need this more than anyone. Please go. Give her all the tickets, as a matter of fact. And when you're at this festival, who's going to be manning the textbook room? Because obviously you have to be there during the summer. I don't know, and I don't care.
Starting point is 00:23:47 Okay. There we go. That was nice. I don't think anyone's going to steal them while you're gone. Hey, whatever happened to the textbook room? I was at a festival. Nothing. Oh, good.
Starting point is 00:23:57 Catching the ride. They're all there. Apparently no one likes this room. I bet you that's where all the teachers go and get hired because no one would think to look in the textbook. Or sex, right? Oh, maybe that's it. Let me ask her.
Starting point is 00:24:08 Hold on. Kelly Beckham. Get back. Kelly, do the teachers have sex in the textbook room? Is it like a kind of a slang? It sounds like it's a boring room, but really that's the fun room? No. Nobody comes back here.
Starting point is 00:24:22 Oh, okay. All right. We tried. Sounds like she's keeping it a secret. Yeah, it must be. It's a bang fest. in there. That's why she's going to have to keep the woos down. All the other people are wooing in there.
Starting point is 00:24:32 We've got to take a break. We're back in a moment. We've got ADD News to get to. If you want tickets to that show, Kelly will be there. You can be there as well. We'll give them to you next hour with a little quiz if you've been paying attention to today's show. What a doozy to pay attention to. Back with K-Rock. We are Kline Alley Show. Let's get into your ADD News and then a brand new hour of the show will officially
Starting point is 00:24:48 begin. Lots of ways to interact with the show. Call, text, or use that goat line 844-956-GOAT. Good morning, K-Rock and the Kline the nailer show, I just want to let you guys know I got six stitches in my hand yesterday, and while I was getting my stitches, I had my headphones
Starting point is 00:25:04 in, and the only thing that was keeping a smile on my face was you guys. Keep up the good work, and thank you guys. I'm going to leave a message about getting stitches in your hand. Please explain how that happened. I mean, I assumed bar fight. Oh, I assumed it was an aggressive masturbator, but I guess we'll never know. I mean, it was probably
Starting point is 00:25:20 a construction thing. It's probably not nearly as exciting. Had it been an exciting reason, I'm sure he would have given us the details. Yeah, it's probably some kitchen mishap. Right. He was cutting onion. Got avocado hand. Whatever that thing that was going around years ago so people couldn't take the pit out properly. That's when you definitely don't say what you cut your hand. Right. Well, in that case,
Starting point is 00:25:36 sir, you're a hero, and thanks for listening to the show. I'm glad we could keep you happy through the process. It seems like we were putting people in the ER and helping people get through the ER experience. And now there's this, your news. Grab your Adderall. It's time for ADD News. We'll start with the big bear bald eagles,
Starting point is 00:25:52 Jackie and Shadow, who have been an obsession for Southern California for years now and overall life has been good for them except for that one weird year where their eggs didn't hatch and they like ate them on live stream. But they hatched two new eaglets this year and this week some drama went down
Starting point is 00:26:06 because two other a-hole eagles started messing with Jackie and trying to kick her ass and get to her nest. It's like a Real Housewives of Orange County situation. Oh my God, I know. They're so SoCal, aren't they? Such a, I mean, really welcome. You guys belong here.
Starting point is 00:26:19 I'm sure they're so fake to her face too. Throwing champagne at each other and it's like such a, If you think about what's going on, I know it's eagles and this is nature, but it really is like all of those reality shows. Yeah, but they're all going to hash it out later on a podcast. Oh, great. Andy Cohen will be sitting in the nest, breaking it all down. So what went wrong, do you think?
Starting point is 00:26:36 The update now is that they rescued Jackie. There are not signs of injury, but she is underweight and alert, just like most of the women on Real Housewives. That's right, same exact schedule right there. They are thinking something's up with her kidneys. She has inflammation and anemia, and they're trying to figure out why. But until then, they say she's in critical condition. Oh, no. I know.
Starting point is 00:26:58 And what's sad is that Shadow has no idea. They're like, it's sad because we know where she is, and Shadow has no idea where she is. And he's just feeding. Shadow's out banging. Are you kidding me? Yeah, Shadow's probably thrilled right now. Dude, hell yeah. He's got the empty nest.
Starting point is 00:27:10 This made-for-life thing sucks. Every year, it's that same boring, got to bang the same eagle again. And he's like, I can't cheat because there's literally cameras everywhere. everywhere. Yeah. You guys are like, hey, I'm just trying to bang a little bit.
Starting point is 00:27:23 Just trying to slay a little bit. Got the stupid webcams really blowing up my spot. I know, but then he has to manage more than one nest. You know, I mean, with your dad, Omar, that didn't work out.
Starting point is 00:27:31 He had two families. It didn't. No, he got busted. Yeah, it's crazy. So you might think it is gross to rummage around in Goodwill bins to find discounted
Starting point is 00:27:38 smelly worn clothes by thousands of people. And you might be right. But then there are stories like this when you happen to find a diamond in the trash heap and you make
Starting point is 00:27:46 some serious money. The greatest thrift store find of all time. Earlier this year, going through the bins at a Goodwill near Portland, Oregon, somehow or another, NBA... By the way, of all of the Goodwills to go through... Oh, my God, the smelliest. The Portland, Oregon one, that's got to be the stankiest of the stanky. So much gross tie-dye.
Starting point is 00:28:03 Great Wilt Chamberlain's Lakers warm-up jacket from the 72 NBA Finals had ended up for sale in Oregon for $3.07. Here's Brown. Oh, that's racist. Here's Brown. I don't know why they say that. Is that the section he found it in? That's unnecessary.
Starting point is 00:28:21 I think that's the guy's last name. Oh, okay. Well, that explains things. Yeah, but I bet it was so discounted because the size was enormous. The really key moment for me was I was in my room, and I looked at the measurements of the jacket. Wilt Chamberlain being 7'1", the jacket measured 33 inches long, so it would have gone down almost to my knees.
Starting point is 00:28:40 I looked at it, and it matched up. Smart kid. When Brown posted his discovery online, Sotheby's reached out, Helped with the forensic investigation Matching the stitches on the jacket To old pictures of it And then put it up for auction And that $3 thrift store fine
Starting point is 00:28:55 Just sold for nearly $90,000 Which seems low It does seem low I think it's funny that Ally thinks it was discounted Because it was so big Everything at Goodwill is discounted $3.07 actually seems expensive For Goodwill
Starting point is 00:29:11 I know but if you think about it an actual real jacket like that, and if it's actually good quality still, it would be more like $7. Okay, those massive sizes, they discount even more. $4 is a steal.
Starting point is 00:29:26 Yeah, yeah, she knows about big sizes. I've never found anything of value. Allie is often times referred to as the Wilt Chamberlain of shopping at Goodwill. That's how good she is there. That's right. I have a game-warm jacket from when I went to my last stint at Goodwill. If somebody owes you money,
Starting point is 00:29:42 that what is the best way to ask them for it? According to a new study, people have gotten more and more afraid of the awkwardness of asking for their money back, so they just avoid it entirely. And a new Zelle report is showing that this is especially true for Gen Z. 76% of them are owed money by somebody, but
Starting point is 00:29:58 have never been paid back and probably never will be because they're too afraid to ask for the money back. I think this is a lost art form, the owing someone money, because you can just instantly Zelle or Venmo or cash out their million ways. People feel like that's rude to Zelle request. You just do it on the spot. You just do it right there.
Starting point is 00:30:12 And I feel like now, I don't even let people wait to, because I'll forget and I don't want anyone to be like, oh. You always say, don't worry about it, don't worry about it. Are they talking about just something like, you know, like for a meal, hey, you're going to get me back or I loaned you $1,000 and they're afraid for that amount? Good question, Omar, because it's really about big group expenses for like trips and stuff. It's not even just dinners. It's like, I'm going to get the Airbnb, you get the flights or whatever. Still, that could be $1,000. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:30:41 And then 46% of Gen Z say they are now in debt because of this. Because they're not asking people to give the money back. I don't even think you wait around to be asked. You understand. You know going in. All right, it's Vegas. We all threw in for a bottle service or whatever. I always thought, you know, it's the end of the trip.
Starting point is 00:30:59 Like, once everyone gets home, you go, oh, my gosh, so much fun. Here's what everyone owes. Love you. You need one person to do that. We have one designated card person whenever I go out with my friends. We have, like, one person pay, and then we just Venmo them. But it's never more than, like, $20 or $30. Well, that's going out to dinner.
Starting point is 00:31:15 You don't go on trips, Johnny. Yeah, we don't trip or do anything like that. But even when we did once, like, I didn't spend more than, like, $200 to somebody. But the idea is you've got to remember to do it because if a week goes by, the person that owes the money is probably not going to remember they owe anyone money. And then someone's angry at you. Yeah, you have to be friends with people who hate owing money to people because there are some people
Starting point is 00:31:35 who have no problem owing lots of money to people and they'll just forget about it. If I know I owe someone something, I need to pay them right away. Otherwise, it bothers me. A bunch of, oh, a brand new hour of the show
Starting point is 00:31:46 starts next.
