What is up? My name is Roy. Welcome to my job fair. Hey, this is episode one, man. We did it. We did it. I've joined the long list of people during a pandemic who decided to put together an acoustical radio presentation just for your ears. But before we even start, just bring the music down. Bring the music down for a sec, just for a second. Look, it's four stages of employment, all right? You'd love your boss. You want to slap your boss, you need a new boss or you're trying to be your own boss. And also retirement. Okay, there's five stages of employment. You get what the hell I'm trying to do here. If I could put it into a story, this is what I hope for this podcast to be.

I remember when I was like 22-23 years old and I was still working the road as a rogue comic. I was headed to a gig in Kentucky and halfway to the gig called methe Booker called me and he goes, Yo, man, the gig is canceled, I'm sorry. So I didn't have enough money and gas to get back to Birmingham. The money I was getting from the show, that was supposed to be my money to get back home. It was one big, another one of them break even trips. And I ended up pulling over the truck stop. And I cried, I'm that, I'm that, I'm th, I'm to to to to to to to to the to the the the to the the the the thuad, I'm thui, I'm the thui, I'm thu, I'm thu, I'm thu, I'm thu, I'm the the thu, I'm thu, I'm the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th, th...... th. thu. thu. thu. than, thr. thrugn, toon't trucan, truc.ea, truc.e, truc.e, truc. truc. truc like you don't cry. I wake up the next morning because when you get to that point, when you're at that low in your life, where you've exhausted every

person you could borrow money from, you've reached out to every person that has been able to give you advice, but you don't always want to call people when you're down, you know, I was out of options. And I wake up the next morning at the truck truck truck truck truck truck truck truck truck truck truck truck trux truck the the thrucks thrucks thrucks thir thir thir thir thir thir thir thir thir thir thir thir thi thi thi. thatu thi. to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to th. th. th. th. thi. th. thi. thi. thi. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. toe. toe. toe. toe. to be to be to to to people when you're down. You know, I was out of options. And I wake up the next morning at their truck stop in Bowling Green and I look and there's a bunch of dudes going in the store and the gas station, you know, whatever, and they're getting a morning coffee. It's like five, six in the morning. I go in and the dude looks at me. One of the guys, he goes, theymeau, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th. th. th. th. thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, the, and I's, and the the the the the thr, and I's, and I's, and I's, and I's, and their their their their their their their their their their, and I's, and I's, and I's, and I's, and I's, and I's, and I's, and I's, and I's, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thr, thr, thr, their, thr, they. thr, they's, thru. true, true, they, they, they. they's, they's, they's, they's, their, their, their, the wrong shoes. And so what are you talking about? He goes, well, young blood, if you work in this construction job, you got to have boots. His boots over there. And these guys work temp service at a construction site, and they were just there going through their usual morning routine of getting, you know, sausage biscuit and some coffee. And I go, yo, can I roll with y'all and work real quick?

And the dude was like, hell yeah, Youngblood, I'm sure they'll put you to work. I said, cool. Now can I borrow $20 to buy some fucking boots? You know, I had a little bit of cash, but not enough to get home. So I put that with his money, bought a pair of boots, went and worked the thing. got my paycheck for the day, cash that thing, and got back to Birmingham. God willing, this podcast will be somebody's pair of boots. Now in the way to doing that we're gonna laugh and please believe we're gonna talk a lot of shit, all right? But every no man, you might find your pair of boots. Helping me run this show every week is gonna be my writer, research at the homie. C Cody. C Cody, th. Cody, th. Cody, th. Cody, th. Cod, th.

So we affectionately call her JG. JG. What's going on? Hello. This week, it's not quite a theme, but there's definitely a thread between all of the different worlds of employment that we're going to explore and discuss. This is about jobs where you stand up for the most part. Standing up on your feet, doing a lot of moving around in service of people jobs on your feet

the feet I think that'll be the theme this week Cody will is in the building how you doing feeling good man glad to be here What's about jobs on your feet? Well, you have the lineup. You know who the fuck gonna be on the show today? to the thoooo tho the the, the the the the, the the the the, the the the the, the the the the the the the the. the the the the the. the. the. the. the. the. the. th. the. the. the, that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's th. that's th. th. th. th. th. th. that's th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. theeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. that's today and a lot of these jobs I do I was I was looking at the sheet I was looking at the sheet of people that you have lined up like we got the home in from Waffle House gonna stop through we got my man the prostate cancer the prostate doctor he's stand up you can't give a prostate exam that's not even called a prostate exam everybody everybody the their feet. Okay. Also our most outstanding employee of the week, big on our feet. See what I'm saying? It's a threat. We got a threat. It's a threat. So I don't know if you heard about this a couple weeks ago and

and it's something that I've been meaning to talk about. This happened a while back, but I don't want to start the show attacking a particular form of employment. However, as the great Stephen A. Smith sometimes says, it's time out for journalists. The way we cover almost plane crashes in this country, I'm tired of. I'm, it's a weird thing to be bothered by, but so there was a plane with the engine. Did you see this shit, J.G? with the airplane flying over Denver. The engine looked like a barbecue grill and they had in the parts was sprinkling all over the ground, which is horrifying. It's a horrifying thing to be a part of I wouldn't want to be on that plane.

But every time they do one of these stories, they interview all of the passengers who are happy to be alive. Like every interview is just, so what were you thinking when you were up there at 500 miles an hour with a flame sitting right underneath a fuel-filled wing? What were you think? Well, you know, just a blessing to be on the ground and when we're got? And then they always cut to the shot of the fuck. If fuck, the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the thuck, their, the thu, the thu, the the the thu, thu, the the thu, thu, the th. their, their, the, their, their, their, their, the, their, their, their, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, their, their blessing to be on the ground. And then they always cut to the shot of my fuck is clapping when the plane touches down. True. Air travel is one of the safest forms of transportation in this country. Can't speak globally.

We're still looking for the air Malaysia flight. In America, air travel is one of the safest forms of travel. And all of these almost crash stories, I just don't think her story. Like, it's like, it's messed up. Damn, that's crazy. But if you want people to remain calm about air travel, and the time were not a lot of people to traveling, maybe don't interview the motha,

that was horrified. That you would think, you would th you, want those people to shut the fuck up just just once I would love to see I would love to see in a in a almost crash interview I would love to see them talk to the person who wanted the plane to blow up what they never find him as the only person on this acoustical radio presentation that has a degree in broadcast journalism here's what they tell you wait wait a minute wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait the to the the the the the the the th th th the th the th the th the the th th the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th the th th th th th th th th th th th th th th the the the the the the the the the the the the tra tru ccu cune tru cune tru cune tru cune tru cune tm tm tm tma tma the the the the the the the the the the only person on this acoustical radio presentation that has a degree in broadcast journalism. Here's what the teach. Oh wait a minute. Wait, wait, wait, wait a minute.

Oh shit, oh shit, I fucked it. Wait a minute. Uh-oh, my undergraduate degree is in broadcast journalism, sir. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. How do I know that about you? Yeah, I'm a producer thr thr thr thr thr thr I'm a producer thr I'm a producer th and through. You are one of the most layered and interesting individual. Cody, did you know Jacqueline owns a gun and she goes to a shooting range regularly? I knew that she owned a gun. I didn't know about the regular

shooting range exercise, but I will say she landed that plane of yours quite quickly, sir. That was impressive and immediate. Jay-G, you are an interesting, interesting person of many layers and I'm sorry to have ever doubted and assumed anything about your educational background. Do you accept my humble apology? Thank you. Okay. You're fine.

I'm good. So as one of two people on this acoustical radio presentation with a degree in broadcast journalism, pause for Cody. You know, my mother, no, I'm kidding. Oh, you should say that because it's true. His mother is like, for real, for real. It's in the jeans, you know. Oh, yeah, Cody's mom is like, can we say what she's?

My mother is the president of the National Association of Black Journalists. So I'm familiar. I'm going to take the soft nepotism knowledge route on this one, but also just back up because I want to see you fly Roy. I want to hear your authoritative statement. As one of three people on this acoustical audio presentation with some degree of experience, who has read a newspaper, what they, at least what they taught us at FamU was, when you're trying to get the story, you're trying to get people on both sides of the story.

So you can honor different perspectives. When a playing almost crashes, more often or not, the only perspective is, I thought I was going to die, and then I didn't die. Man, I can't wait to get to Los Angeles. Where's my luggage? Somewhere in those 200 people that's on that flame, fucking smoldering underneath all of that fucking jet fuel, and they looked at that flame and they just whispered to themselves, finally. Where's that person? That's all I'm saying. Work harder to find better perspectives when there's almost a tragedy journalist. That'll be my little...

I feel like I got to show off on the wrong note. No, look, I just think... Roy, what you've just done that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the. the. the. the. the. the the. the the. the. the the. the the. the the the the the the the th, I feel like I got the show off on the wrong note. I just think, Roy, what you've just done is inspired that person who wanted the plane to go down to keep flying, to get not only get their odds up, but to get enough miles so they could go into the, I've got this many miles lounge and to start feeding the pilot drinks. We all saw that Denzel Washington movie. It's possible. You you you you you you you you you you that you that you that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that's that's that's that that's that that that that that that that th. that th. thi. that that that thi. that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that th. that's th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. that's the. that's that's the. We all saw that Denzel Washington movie. It's possible. You can get somebody to mess up that crash landing. All you gotta do is keep flying, okay? Believe it yourself.

Just running on the door. Yeah, look, man, let's gun it. There has to be at least one person when the engine blows up. You ever been on the freeway with a check engine light and you're like, should I go home? Or should I just get to my destination and worry about this shit when I leave the bowling alley? Like, which one do you do? All right, I've wasted enough time. We've got to get the show on the road.

Cody, let's go ahead and start it off because I know at some point on this journey tonight you're going to say something something irrered,, so this is an opportunity to redeem yourself in advance. This is a segment that we like to call. Cody's most outstanding employee of the week, aka Cody says something nice. And I appreciate the opportunity, Roy, because you really, you lopped me right into it talking about our suicidal airplane passenger. My most outstanding employee actually just started his job. Japan.

The nation of Japan just appointed a Minister of Loneliness. This minister of loneliness is meant to help curb what's been an uptick in suicides in Japan for the first time in 11 years. In the month of October 2020 alone, they had more suicides in Japan than they had COVID deaths. So Japan's called in the Minister of Loneliness to come in and help people feel a little more communal and happy and he just got an amazing assist from Japan's own Naomi Osaka. Naomi Osaka just picked up her fourth major tennis title win. Yeah, Australian Open. The Australian Open.

Yeah, she did it in the fourth corner. She beat the snot out of America's Jennifer Brady. Not to be confused with the equally as white, Tom Brady. And most impressive. Jan Brady. Most impressive about Naomi's win was what she said afterwards, which was her dream is to play long enough that she can play against someone who once looked up to her as a child, which would be like

if Michael Jordan finished the like Mike commercials and looking to the camera like, I dare you to grow up little Timmy, I'll dunk on your ass too. That's the most thug-ruggish, long-term commitment to non-retirement I've ever seen. So shout out th out th out tho, so shout out thu thu. That's thu. That's thu. That's the most the most thus. That's thus. That's the most thus. That's. That's. That's. That's. That's the most thus. That's. That's thuggish, rugged, long-term commitment to non-retirement I've ever seen. So shout out to the Minister of Loneness and his trusty assistant, Naomi Osaka. I really enjoy the way that America and Japan are sharing Naomi Osaka. Like it's a beautiful joint custody situation that hasn't gotten ugly. Nobody is like really like duking it out over. Like the way we try to share Idris Elba with England it's not going well. It's not you know it's not a smooth wait you started talking about Idris I believe that we should

do a full show there and I volunteered to handle anything that needs to happen here. Thank you. Look you're not going to be flirting with people on our show, you know. That man is married, very happily married. And that's all we need to say. He's Idris. I'd like how she just says it then mutes herself, like she's leaving the room or something. Like, we can still see you. Chuck over real quick.

And now I will excuse myself, I will be right back. Thank you. Edress Elba. Hmm. Okay, so a minister of loneliness, what would that look like in the states? You know, mental health is a serious issue. You know, I'm not gonna joke about anything you can do to bring awareness to it. You know, it's a dope thing.

Who is our Minister of Loneliness? I would YouTube. I thought that I had kind of given myself the title Minister of Loneliness About four weeks into the pandemic then I realized that everybody kind of had dubbed themselves the Minister of Loneliness We all been in the crib for ever I feel like we've all got a pretty good handle on what it is to be lonely And some of us have been so thirsty to not be lonely that we were willing to kind of step out and risk it all. So we certainly could use someone to coordinate a couple Zoom break-off rooms and get this sorted out. I think probably like, I don't know, Kevin Bacon. He knows everybody.

I think Ray Jay, every time I see Ray Jay, he's a good time. He seems like he's having fun, he's enjoying life. You never feel sad watching anything Ray Jay is doing. You never feel sad watching some specific stuff Ray Jay is done as well. Hang on, Cody. We're pausing to see if Jacqueline jumps in to compliment Ray Jay's abs. There's nothing. So disrespectful. Here's a side effect of loneliness. We're gonna get now into Worst and First. This is where we invite you,

the people who listen to this program to share with us either your worst job experience or your first job experience. If you have one you wanna share with us. Hit us up on the socials at Roy's job fair. Whatever we are, wherever you are on social, we're there. Put a dot a dot a dot a dot a dot a dot a dot dot dot dot dot dot dot dot dot dot dot dot dot dot dot dot dot dot dot dot dot dot dot dot dot dot dot dot dot com dot dot dot dot dot com dot dot dot dot dot com dot dot dot dot dot dot dot dot dot dot dot dot dot. to. to. to. to. to. to to to to to to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to to. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the to the the to the the the to the the to to com behind it if you want to go to the website and submit your name to be on the show. Now before we get to the two brothers that are standing by, we need to talk real quick about a real quick sponsor. Did you see the teacher

that beat up the kids at the McDonald's? Yes. Yes. Some school teacher, like here's the thing about McDonald's fights. You never know when they were from. Because they just pop up on the internet either the day of or three months later. Like you just don't know. But there was a school teacher in Florida who got, she got arrested because she got into a fist fight with some sixth graders, I think it was. And that brings me to our sponsor, Cousins in them, Cousins in them fight services. This is a company that has been around, I'd say since like 2003, 2004, family owned,

and here's what they do for you. They will send someone to fight a stranger on your behalf. There's a lot of litigation when it comes to a fight. It's cute when you're in high school because, because, becauseto jail or the court or anything, but when you're an adult, there are consequences to be paid for laying your hands on a stranger. Don't do that. Download the cousins in them app, put in your credit card information, and when an altercation starts bubbling up, they will send someone to a, this schoolteacher in Florida for the low price of $40 per ass whoopin could have got someone to come beat the shit out of them sixth graders on

her behalf and she would still be employed. She would not be all over the internet with her mug shot and she would still have smooth hands. That's the other thing about fighting it scuffs up your hands. Hit them up online cousins andousins and NEM.com. NEM.NEM.com. Jacqueline, have you ever been in a fighter to McDonald's? I have never been in a fight, actually. Well, I guess not, because you've got a gun. So that makes perfect sense. That make perfect sense that you ain't been in no damn fight before. All right. We got a welcome this homie on the show for Worst of the First, Yo, he is the host of the Black Guy who tips podcasts available exclusively on Spotify. He is the home and Rod.

I'm not even sure if I can say your last name out there in the world. Rod, give me your first to worst. I know you got a story. So my first and worse are the same job. Um, my first and worse are the same job. th same job. th same job. th same job. th same job. th same job. th same job. th same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same job same job same same same job same job same same job same same same job same job same job same job same job. I got hired when I was 15 years old to work cash register at McDonald's in Charlotte, North Carolina. It was the closest McDonald's at the time, the closest fast food to the theme park, Carol wins. That meant, in addition to being the number one Rob McDonald's in the city. Hang on, hang on, hang on, hang on.

I'm sorry to cut you off. First things first. Walk me through a McDonald's robbery. Oh, what is exactly, put all the money in the bag? Are they taking snacks? So, number one, I never got robbed, okay? Now, this is not because I was so great. I was just literally lucky, I was 15, and they had these laws where you had to be gone by a certain time of the night. Like sundown, you gotta go. I always came in the next day and it would be like, brother, you should have been here. I'm like, no, I shouldn't have been here. That's the whole point. That's th you th, you th, you th, you th, th, th, th, th, one point, you know what I'm saying?

In addition to that, it was also the number one spot for buses of kids to hit the store up several times a day. We were the field trip McDonald's. It was one time we got, we got three buses on a lot at the same time. And it was just before, they told me to go on break just before the buses showed up. They were so busy, they forgot I was in the break room. You hear it? And so I stayed in that, I stayed in that break.

You hear it? the whole rush. Yes, the whole rush. And then when I got out, you know, the manager, the manager were you at? And I said, he told me to go on break. And he was like, well, you got, you got to clean up all this thing. You haven't been out here, clean up the lobby, clean up the bathroom, clean up everything. Oh, and the other thing is, you know my God. And I couldn't tell her, mom, I need an hour to clean the inside the restaurant.

So I just literally never clocked in from break, walked straight out the door, got in the car and told her, that's it, I'm never coming back here. This is my last day. And that's how I quit. Right. Thank you so much for that, Rod. You're busy, man. I know you podcast five days a week. We only do it once a week. Give everybody a breakdown of the podcast real quick.

My father passed for prostate cancer when he was 80, so it's always been an issue that's been, you know, prominent in our family and you know I'm 42 now and so I went at, Dakota you'll appreciate this. I went and got a prostate exam a couple of weeks ago and it wasn't until the exam the dude was like, yeah, you don't have to do this until 45 now. But in 1995, the the the the the the th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th. th. th. th. th. thoes thoes, thi. thi. thoes. to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be toe. toe. toe. to be th. toe, toe, th. th. th. th. toe. th. th. th. toe. th. th.

But in 1995, when my father passed, everybody was like, you got to go, as soon as you hit 36, it's crazy, mothucker, you better go get your prostate check. And I was mad, and it wasn't like, and it wasn't like, like, here's the thing, J.B. When you go to the doctor's office for a prostate exam,

it's forms, it's paperwork, it's tons of paperwork, and everything on that paperwork has your date of birth. They ask you your date of birth, they draw your blood, they make you say your date of birth, and then they log in, hit me over the head for this copay for this prostate exam that you could have just checked my blood for but I'm gonna let it slide because my daddy died of it so I still appreciate you. And it was interesting I couldn't get mad.

So tell us a little bit about zero and some of the job openings you all have. Absolutely right and keep getting checked too. I met guys who are your age and younger who have gotten it, even known guys who have died from it, younger than you do. Thank you. This doctor, and I'm not trying to be an asshole, but this doctor made it seem like I was wasting his time by daring to come in to do something that he gets paid to do. Bish I'm here to give you the copay. Why you got a problem with me. I'm sorry, I'm raising the to the to their the prevention. It's to to to that's to that's the prevention. It's to to to to the prevention. It's to to the prevention. It's to to to to their their their th.

Why you got a problem with me? I'm sorry, I'm raising my voice. Prevention.

Yeah, I'll tell you. And so at zero, our mission is to end prostate cancer. And we do that by advancing research. We improve the lives of men and their families. And we inspire action against the disease. You know because your dad had it and passed away from it and you said when he was 80, but there are lots of families that have been impacted by prostate cancer. There's actually 3 million American men who have been impacted by prostate cancer. And worse yet, I know that we're going to get talking about jobs, but this connects

into it. But black men are twice're going to get talking about jobs, but this connects into it. But black men are twice as likely to get prostate cancer and two and a half times more likely to die from it. Come on. So we're going to get awareness out there and save some lives. My dad beat it and so did his dad. Both my dad and his dad had prostate cancer. Okay.

So the stats are adding up. How's your dad doing? Wow. He's good. He's good now. I was like, this was 19 years ago. So he, he couldn't have been, he was 44 when he got it. And, you know, fortunately he was young enough to kick it.

But yeah, I mean, this is all making sense to me. Well, Cody, according to the doctor I went to, the motherfucker say you ain't got to go until you're 45. So don't worry about none of your family history. Try you a year too late, Ron. Exactly. I did the right thing and I'm happy for it. So where's your company based? Is this remote work? Are we talking remote work? Or is this more boots on the ground like in conjunction with other, with other nonprofits and stuff? Well, everybody's remote now, but it's, um, it's national. One of the jobs, what I want to talk to you about is somebody who's going to come in and be an inspirational

and experienced leader who's passionate about addressing and ultimately eliminating racial disparities in prostate cancer. You know, as I said, you know, black men two and a half times more likely to die from prostate cancer. And it's critical to have somebody come in to be able to connect with communities of color, to talk about the disease, be able to build bridges, get people involved in a cause, do some advocacy work, help out with putting together programs so we can get men aware that they even have a prostate, know that they need to get tested for it so they don't have to be in a position of, you know, dying from it. Yeah.

Well, I'm gonna tell you, I'm gonna tell you one way we can try and get the black community on board with it is to talk more about the blood test that happened early in your 30s before a proper prostate exam, because I'm not even being a the the thied, thied, thied, I, thated, I, thated, thated, I, thated, thated, thated, thated, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, to have a to have a to have a to have, to have, to have, to have, to have, to have, to have, to have, to have, to have, to to to to to have, to have, to have, to have, to have, to have, to have, to have, to have, to have, to have, to have, to have, to have, to have, to have, to have a to have a to have a to have a to have a to have a to have a to have a to have a thro, to have a to thro, to to the.e. toe. toe. toe, toe, of it has to do with homophobia in the black community and the hesitancy to talk about having a anal exam. That's literally what a prostate exam is. So for someone to openly talk about that and then face the ridicule of the homies and the friends and the, like, you got to completely take that off the ridicule of the homies and the friends and the like you got to completely take that off the board and that only happens from people talking about it and building awareness. God bless you. What are the

what are some of the other positions? We have an operations assistant that we're bringing in, the coordinator for for the events that we do. We have about 50 walks all around the country when, you know, one of these days we go back to normal after this pandemic, we have walks all over the country to raise awareness. We're going to be bringing in a chapter director in the southeast. So to cover some of the area where you're from Broi because you're from Birmingham, right? Yeah. So we're going to get Alabama, Mississippi, Georgia, Florida covered with a chapter director. But I'm excited about bringing in this person who's really going to lead health equity to help make a difference. I was even going to see, how about you interested in throwing your hat in the ring for this or? You know what, man, if the Daily Show would ever give me a break, I would be happy to try and do something. But I tell you what, I am on board to support whatever you all are doing

I have to lose weight so I guess I have to do more of these health walks now So let me know when you got the walk it's summertime though because I'm not when is prostate-a-a-waerinus month. It's like in the fall right? Yeah, it's almost too much of a breeze in September. the tree. th, th, th, th, th, th, th, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, th, thi, thus, I's, I'll, I'm, I'm, I'm, I's, I to to to to to to to to to to to, I'll, I'll, I to, I to, I to, I to, I to, I to, I to, I to, I to, I to, I I to, I I I to, I I to to th.

We need to move prostate cancer awareness month about June, somewhere in there. Well, a guy dies every 15 minutes from it, so prostate cancer awareness month should be every month. And that's why we love you. Where can people go to find out more information about these positions? Zero Cancer. Zero, ZERO Cancer.

Um, I feel like I'm being too mean to that doctor, by the way, but that's my fault for going on Zoc-Doc to find a damn doctor. You went where to find a doctor? It's like. the the the their their their their their their their their their. You their. You their. You their. You their. You their. You their. You their. You th.

What? No. Thanks, Jame. But no, I think I think there's this, I don't know. There's just the same way we act like every doctor's a good doctor. The same way there's an ain't shit, motherfucker, the fast food spot that'll burn your fries and roll his eyes at you. There's doctors that are the same way that are not excited to be there, that are not excited to do the job. And this man was straight up ridiculing me because I dared to come get a prostate exam at 42 instead of waiting three more goddamn years. We're glad you didn't wait and we didn't know all of this, so thank you for sharing it.

I didn't know any of this about prostate. You know I'm an open book. The only thing I don't talk about is my mama because she'll cuss me out. Roy, I think you're, and I'm making an assumption here. If the asshole doctor, who you found online to sort out your hypothetical, to to to to to to to to their, to to to their, to sort out your, you know, hypothetical, possible asshole issues was upset. I'm going to guess it's because you came in what, at 4.15, 4.30 on a Friday? Come on. He didn't care that you were 42 years old.

He cared that you were keeping him from happy hour. He said, another asshole. I could understand if I didn't shower and he had to check my unwashed ass cheeks. Fine, be upset. But I came to you as a concerned black man twice the... What did J.B. just say? Two and a half times? More likely. And you dare to give me some of the worst service on earth. Let's, let's... let me stop, because I'm really pissed about that. I'm... I'm really pissed about that. I'm. I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm that. I'm that. I'm that. I'm that. I'm that. I'm that. I'm that. I'm that. I'm that. I'm that. I'm that. I'm that. I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm th. I'm th. I'm, I'm, I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm that. I'm that. I'm that. I'm that. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm really really really th. I'm th. I'm to th. I'm to th. I'm to thi. I'm to to to thi. I'm to thi. I'm thi. some of the worst service on earth. Let's let's let's let me stop because I'm really pissed about that.

I'm legit upset about that. But if I say something crazy then it's just Roy from the daily shows an asshole and doesn't support first responders. That's how the story you'll get twisted. Uh, J.G. Who's next in a job fair? We are going over to Atlanta and in Atlanta we're going to talk to Vicas. Beekas works for the Waffle House. He's in a... Yeah. Waffle House, Executive Vice President. Well, he's been with them for 18 and a half years and he's now the executive vice president.

Executive Vice president. Vicus Miller, brother, how are you doing? You know what's interesting about Waffle House? Waffle House is one of the few restaurants that you can go to after church and after the club. Yes, that's a crazy mixture right there, right? Honestly, if you go late enough after the club, you're going to see some people to see the church. And some of those people are leaving from the club about to go to church.

No, I'm not here to single out Waffle House specifically, because altercations and restaurants happen at a number of businesses, be it chains or private places. But with Waffle House, when it be such a late night, to Do y'all ever watch the Waffle House videos when they get up on the internet? Like do you ever see him in the conference room like oh Lord what they doing down in Florida? Oh, Lord. Yeah, we we do sometimes have some head scratches. We have some interesting folks on third shift. What is it about eggs and liquor that don't mix? I you know what? Maybe a brunch with a mimosa, but it don't mix with brown liquor eggs. No, you're not going to do that. But yeah,

we, yeah, kind of what you were saying, you know, being open 24 hours in all different types of communities and everything, sometimes it does get a little bit challenging and again, most times people come in to watch that show on thir thir shi. to kind th. th. th. th. thin, thin, thin, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, to to to to to to to, kind of, kind of, kind, kind, kind, kind, kind, kind, kind, kind, kind, kind, kind, kind, kind, kind, kind, kind, kind, kind, kind, kind, kind, kind, th. You, th. You, th. You, t. You, to, the. And, to. And, tog, tog, tog, tog, tog, tog. And, tog. And, tog. togu. togu. togu. togu. t. to, to, to, to, to, t togu. to going on, and kind of have a good laugh. Waffle House is one of those spots because it's a late night spot that you might have to break up a fight every now and then. Is de-escalation, like teaching those techniques? Is that part of working at Waffer House? Like a flight attendants You know, people get the trip and you got to put that spatula, put that hot spatula in his face. Yes, we absolutely have all that stuff.

We teach our associates how to try to calm everybody down, try to make sure everybody's happy. So yeah, we go through that all the time with our hourly associates and our management team. It's just to your point, we have so many situations that kind of the tooask.s.s.s.s.s.s.s. Ski. Si. Si. I I to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to try try try try try try try try try try try try try try try try try try try try to to to to to to to to to to to tocalation. They know how to calm folks down. You sit over here. You sit over here. I'm gonna feed you. And then I'm gonna feed you, then y'all'all to feed you, then y'allet the today. And so that works pretty well. So we have to de-es me the customer at the store.

Everybody got to eat. We're gonna get your money. Absolutely. I respect that. Do you think that there's a misconception with the restaurant work that it's often seen as a temporary thing to do, high turnover, when your way up to Atlanta, like you, 18 years. Yeah, coming from New York, I never walked into a while for a house. So actually, when I went in there for the first time, I really did not see myself staying

there, you know, because it really wasn't something I was used to. The magical thing about the business was that everybody kind of treat you like family. And you see that with customers their their tha thi thi thi their thi thi thi thi thi thi thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thin, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, th. I, th. So, th. So, th. So, th. So, th. So, th. So, th. So, th. So, th. So, th. So, th. So, th. I, th. I, th. I, thin, thin, thin, thin, thin, thin, thin, thi, thi. So, thi. I's, tooooooooooo. I'm, too. I'm, thi. I'm thi. thi. So, thi. So, thi. And you see that with customers when they walk in and everybody calls their name out and everybody's just having a good time. And that's really what kind of interest me in the business. I said, well, working here or just having fun, you know, and oh, by the way, when we started talking about the actual business, I said, wow, I can make some money too. And I can have a good time. So that was really what kind of kind of thi thi thi thi thi thi thi, kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind of thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to work, to to work, to to to to to to to their their, their, their, their, their, their, their their their their their their their their their, their their their, their their, their, their, their thi, thr. thr. thr. I thr. thr. the. the. to to to the. to to to to to to to to to to to to the. to the. time. So that was really what kind of kind of got me interested in it. And and there's a whole lot of things over my 18 years that I can say Waffle House has been truly like a family to me. So it was something that I wouldn't have expected going in. And a lot of people when they're sitting there eating their scatter some other covered hash browns after the club. They don't think about it. They don't think th th th th th th go home. And when you slow down and kind of look at it, and you say, every corner you see a waffle house and behind every counter there's a bunch of people working, that's a lot of jobs. You can wait tables, you can cook the food, you can go into the management program, and

you can do all those things and have a great time, you know. I also got to give Waffle House a shot out. Y'all got the shortest job application in the history of job application. That thing like, four questions. It's like this. Yeah, it's literally, what's your name? What's your number? Can you work? Do you have hands? Do you speak English? Come on about the way COVID is going right now,

how solid of a long-term career choice is working for your company? Yeah, that's a great question. Actually, we are absolutely still hiring hourly associates, hourly associates, we need folks. Actually, we need more folks coming in because we have so many people who are, the and can't work at this time. So we're hiring hourly associates, our grill operator, salespeople. Just today, I'm actually up in Tennessee right now, and I ran into three manager trainees that are just starting with us. So we're hiring management candidates and we're hiring hourly candidates.

And the thing is, our business, we are virtually debt free, and that has enabled us to really survive during these really tough times, everybody's always going to have to eat something. And you can only stay home and eat home cooked meals for a short amount of time. And then you've got to get out and get something to eat. And so, yeah, so we've been, you know, our business has really returned pretty robustly. And everybody's coming to go food, getting to go food. Like you said, DoorDash, Postmates, all those folks are coming, they're picking up food. So, yeah, we have a lot of job opportunities

How you doing over there brother? First off, what you're sipping on. Let's start there. What are we sipping on this week? Peanut butter whiskey, salted caramel whiskey, and cream soda in my housekeeping appreciation month cup. Cody, count the calories on that. Yeah, before I get the calculator out, I just want to make sure that a housekeeping appreciation month isn't the same as Black History Month because then we have a problem.. what th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th thi thi thi we better thi we better thi thi we better thi thi thi thi thi the the the the the the. What thi. What the. What th th th th th what th what th what th what th what th what th the what we the what we the what what what we thi what what what what what we the. What what what we th th wee. what what we are we we are we we we we we we wea wea wea wea wea wea wea wea wea wea wea wea wea thi. What we're the. What we're the the the the theat theat theat theat theat the theat the the. What the. What we're th a housekeeping appreciation month isn't the same as Black History Month because then we have a problem.

I mean it depends on what decade, you know. It depends on what month is from because you know I've never worked in housekeeping. I mean, it depends on the decade. I don't know what month is from because, you know, I've never worked in house. And don't know how this cup got in my house. Yo, I really feel like every black household has one cup. That the origin is unknown. It's just a cup. It's like a Star Trek cup, or it's fucking P.

P.B. Herman's Bigger Adventure Commemberative Burger King cup. And it's just a new cup like I don't know how it ended up at my house but it wasn't me. Rod one day we're gonna have to talk about slowing you down on the alcohol on a weeknight. All right so let's get into it man give the white people something to talk to black people about. White people, you want to be talking to your black coworkers about the smashed Netflix hit Bridget. That's something that black people are heavily into since the debut Christmas 2020.

What is this show about? I know the brother on the show, I know he hosted Saturday Night Live not too long ago. I'll be honest. I haven't watched like half an episode with my girl and he was having sex with a white woman and then he pulled out and I'm sorry Jacqueline it's been a very vulgar episode but he just didn't they didn't finish they didn't complete the act is that what the show was about just a

dude pullout game. Yeah pretty much he likes to get his pull out on I think an episode you're talking about she forced them to not the the the to to the to to the to the to to to the the the to the the to the the to the the the the the the the th th the th tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho the the tho to tho to to th. th. th. the the the the the the the th. th. th. th. th. th. th. their their their their their their th. their th. th. their th. th. th. th. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the to the to to to theeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee an the an the the the th, pretty much. He likes to get his pullout on. I think in the episode you're talking about, she forced him to not pull out, cause some controversy. But, yeah, it's just basically a show about rich white people and rich black people in Old England. And the black dude is a hot aristocrat who never wants to sigh a child or get married. And the woman he ends up marrying and getting pregnant

is a woman who doesn't want to be with him. It's very weird. That sound like now. Like, hell, you can sit rich. I know two niggins. I know two niggins. Yeah, you can change it to Queens Bridgerton, and it would still be the same show. Just more joy. Okay.

So this, but I'm not gonna, I'm not gonna dump on the show if it's something that black people are enjoying. Created by Shonda Rimes, I know this is her first show. Yeah, the first big show out of her big Netflix deal, man. But black people are really liking it because it stars King George the third and that's it's the exact King George you're thinking about the man Who had the American colony stolen from him? His wife was half black and She was the first black royal in the British royal family. So this show is about the conception of that child

Because I don't know enough about the royal family Because my reason to be talking King George Philip, Philip the thir thir thi. the the the th, and 15, and 15, and 15, and 15, and 15, and 15, and 15, and 15, and 15, and 15, and 15, and 15, and 15, and 15, and thi. th, and the the the thi. the the the thi. the the the the the thi. thi, the the thi, the thi, the thi, the thi, the the the tholololk, the the the the the the the the the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. the thi. the the thi. the the thi. the thi. thi. th the royal family. Because the mother of the talking King George, Philip the 3rd and 15th and Lou, I'm like, whatever, it's all people in Wigs, respectful. I'm not trying to shit on your culture if you're over there. But I just haven't done enough reading about it to know all the names. So this is rooted in truth. Yeah, it's rooted in a lot of truth. It's truth. It's truth. It's truth. It's truth. It's truth. It's truth. It's truth. It's truth. It's truth. It's truth. It's truth. It's truth. It's truth. It's truth. It's truth. It's truth. It's truth. It's truth. It's truth. It's truth. It's truth. It's th. It's th. It's the thi. It's rooted in th. It's th. It's thi. It's the the the their. It's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's, it's the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the thi. It's thi. It's thi. It's rooted in thi. It's rooted in throut, it's rooted in thi. It's rooted in th. It's rooted in thi. It's rooted in thruth. It's rooted in thruth. It's thi a lot of truth. I think everything in this show is fictional, is based on some fictional books, except for Queen Charlotte being black. Okay, so black people being amazing and being rich and not getting shot at and choked out, I can get with that.

All right, what can black people talk to their white coworkers? Believe it or not, black people can talk to their white co-workers about Bridgeton because white people also love Bridget. I know it's surprising because it's about a black dude banging a white chick and it's a black queen. But white people love this show too because it's one of those shows that pulls you out of feeling white guilt and white privilege because they allow black people to be rich also. So white people could just kick back and enjoy seeing old, jolly old England and send their ancestors.

And it's like it's cool. I don't have to worry about slaves on those shit because the show stars a nigger white chicks and everybody's cool with. You don't get it twisted. Uh, black guys banging white girls and black queens are actually on the top five things. White people are interested in it. They've been keeping up with the Kardashians forever. And they love Beyonce.

That's so, you know. It's all coming to a head. This all makes sense to me. J.G. Do, do do do you watch do you do you do you do do you th do th th th th th th th th. Do you th. Do you th. Do you th. th. th. th. th. th. th sense to me. J.G. Do you watch Bridgerton? I've never seen it. Your face let up when I said it was a black queen and you were ready for that. Come on. I'm with you on that one.

Yes, all of that. All right, man. Okay. Well, Rod, as always, thank you so much. this podcast is Uncle Rod Story Corner. You can find that wherever you download audio, radio presentations. I'm gonna leave you to your peanut butter, caramel, butter, and syrup. What else the hell is in that? Cream soda, salted caramel whiskey and peanut butter whiskey. It tastes just like candy. I can tell it.

I'm wearing you a wild. You know what I'm talking about? No, I don't I don't know what you're you. I'm you. I can tell it wearing your wall. You know what I'm talking about? No, I don't know what you're talking about. If you have my diabetic, get you one. Rod is always a pleasure, sir. Thank you. I'm going to go check out Bridgeton. Watch another episode. He's an interesting man.

He's an interesting man. I love Rod to death though. I just don't know if I need peanut butter whiskey mixed with whatever the fuck else he was drinking. Our scammer of the week, I'm just going to read you the headline. And Jacqueline, I want you and Cody to guess what his job was that he was trying to get out of. Arizona man is accused of faking his own kidnap to evade work. When the police arrived, the man had his hands bound behind his back by a bandana and had cotton stuffed in his mouth.

He bound his own wrist and gagged himself and invented a story of treasure hidden in the desert. What is the job that you think he was trying to get out of doing? Oh, that's a good one. Trash pickup? I mean, he's a garbage person? Garbage man, I don't know. No, that's a, that's a 10th grade English teacher. The police in Arizona said in a statement that they believe the scheme was intended to get Mr. Sol's excuse from his job at a tire store.

Huh? Just because you're the scammer of the week doesn't mean you're a good scammer. This is a very bad scam. This was a poorly executed scam. Especially when you add treasure. Like you want to kidnap yourself. Yeah, the the the the the the the to their to to to to their to to their their to thaorsorsorsorsorsorsorsorsorsors. to to tha. toozea. te. tease. A tease tease.

When you start talking about some treasure in the forest or some shit. But he could have listened to the job there and found a new job and then he wouldn't be the scammer.

Well, fuck it better tune in now because he surely ain't got a job of a job. He tied himself up. He put a cotton in his mouth, lost himself on. He could have just accidentally got caught in the trunk of somebody's car and hung out for a couple hours with a book. How bad is this job that you just didn't want to? Y'all, that is none of that's true. He was running from his wife and that's what was going on. I'm telling you the truth. He's tel tel tel tel tel tel tel heu. He's heu. He's heu. He was heu.

Yes. He was, it wasn't sympathy. He was trying to build an alibi. He said, no, look, baby, baby, look, look, look, look now. I told you now. I was out looking for your present. And I got caught up. he was abducted by two masked men. The men, according to souls, drove him around in a vehicle before they left him in an area where he could be found. According to the police, he told

investigators he had been kidnapped because his father had a large amount of money hidden in the desert. Whatever. The heat must be getting to him. Either that or some of those methamphetamines. I understand using lies though about work to try and I lied and fake going to work one time to get this girl leave my house. What? I don't have you ever done that? Why don't you just ask her to leave? I've lived a life because you just can't do that. I was like 22, 23. I don't even think I was 22 yet. We met on this is gonna age me we met on a-o-l person. Okay why were you on a-o-person.

Why is people on tender and bumble for love? Oh, gosh. That's why that's why I was on AOL personals. I was trying to find love, and this woman came over, and I immediately deduced it. This is not love, and she is, this is a very odd situation. And I talked all this shit over email about, when you come over, we gonna watch movies,

and then, like, within like 20 minutes of her being in the house. I was like I've got to get the fuck out of this house Bro and I fake the phone call and then I went upstairs and then I came back downstairs in my golden corral uniform. Oh wow. Wait, wait, how did you pick a phone call because I have a similar story?

I'm in high school and why is it that you always get caught up when you talk the most shit?

I was talked to this one this girl from my high school like yeah, oh your parents are out, we're gonna have a great time come by while I was going to get there and I realize want to be there, the iPhone had recently come out and I had jokingly downloaded this app where you could have fake phone calls. So I had an app where I set it up where like in four minutes my phone was going to ring and they had like a fake Charlie Brown voice on the other end of the line so it sounded like you were actually talking somebody. Exactly. Exactly. So and and I had it make it look like my dad called me and so it was like I didn't have to leave the room. I was sitting in the room my phone quote-unquote rang and then it was Hello oh dad and then burrara no but I just got here. But I I got I you heard the man, I gotta go.
