If that's true. If not, eh. My name is burnt me a payday. I am the pharmacist in chief here at the Dignity Falls, Dignity Falls. Dignity Falls pharmacy. That is a mouthful. It is a mouthful. But I do feel like it.

Is that the full? You have to always say the full title. When we answer the phone, yes. Oh, that's a lot. That's how you have to answer the phone. The Dignity Falls, Dignity Falls, Dignity Falls. Oh, see, it's very hard. Yes, I will avoid answering the phone at all costs.

You can't just do it old dad. Yellow. Yellow. I didn't interrupt your presentation. No. Love yourself. What's the word for that? Introduction.

I like presentation, though. Yeah, presentation on myself. Please, enjoy my presentation. Hello. My name is Bert Mia Payday. I'm the pharmacist in chief at the Dignity Falls Dignity. It's gotten harder. Now I'm really thinking about it.

It's hard. It's a digman. The cartoon? It's fun to sound like. I am the pharmacist in chief at the Dignity Falls, Dignity Falls, Missy, Pharmacy. Well done. Yes. And I am Joan Pedestrian.

I am the top realtor here at Dignity Falls and the top local actress. That's right. And I am hoping that you have a little bit of a, I'm going to start. I'm going to start the episode with this because we always shove it under the rug, push it under the rug. What did I say first? Show it under the rug. That's what my family used to say with our problems. We would just shove them under the rug.

It was that bad. Listen, I'm not going to tap toe around this. We should also say we are in the neighborhood of Dignity Falls, and this is the podcast that looks at the neighborhood of Dignity Falls. Yeah, that bears repeating, I think. Yeah, let's check in. How do you feel about Dignity Falls? Do you still love living here?

How do I feel about it? Yes. Oh, I love it. Because, you know, you can live in a place you can complain about it. Do you know, I think this podcast really put us on the map. I mean, literally, we were not on any map before. And now with our 10th season, I've seen us on a couple maps. Yes, we had to, but there was a petition.

We had to sign a petition. Yes, we did. And send it to every cartographer. Every cartographer. To one finally took the bait and put us on a map. Really hard. Not easy to find a cartographer. Really, it's sort of an ancient trade, isn't it?

They are an ancient trade. They refused to be aligned. Isn't it a day I do in all of it now? God, I hope not. I sure hope not. Can you imagine the spellings of all the places? Are you imagining? Yeah, I am.

I'm imagining Kinsis. The finger lakes, there's too many. Right? For sure. That's a good one. This is artificial intelligence humor. It is. Yes, we're having fun.

This is what we're going to do now. We're having fun with AI humor. But it is a terrifying. It's terrifying. Terrifying. The good news is nobody wants it. And I don't think it's going to. to work.

And AI can't do this. I mean, it can't do what you and I do the magic that we spin every time. And I, AI could never. That's right. Drag AI. Drag it. Drag it. I want to know what's going on with your fiancé Gabby.

Yes. Who is retreated at the moment in her battle against the incident, in quotes. We had a major incident years and years ago. We never talk about it in this town. But now Burt has made me. aware that there might be one impending. There's a possible second incident. Yes.

Gabby is a smoke jumper, so she and her fellow smoke jumpers have been on the front lines. And that's all, there's no FBI, there's no police force, there's no paramedics, it's just smoke jumpers. No, no, come on, there's other agencies and entities involved. Okay, well, you never mention them.

I cannot disclose that. I shouldn't even be telling you this. Okay. Well, how's it going? It's going better. Good. It's going better. They've made a lot of progress. Okay. Everyone's fingernails are growing back. What? You didn't mention that part.

I don't know anything about that. I didn't. No. I didn't mention everyone's fingernails fell out. No, burnt. I'm sure I said something. Honestly? I'm sure I said that.

No, whenever you do this all the time, you don't tell me things. And then you act like it, you must have. And it makes me feel crazy because you know I'm going through paramedipause, which I call feminine overdrive. And I forget things. I don't appreciate it. I hear you.

Good. And I see you. Thank you. Here's the thing. Because we are such good friends. Yes. A lot of times I think I have said something to you that I've just said it to you in my head. All right.

Well, that's a lovely excuse. It makes me feel loved. I mean, it's not going to fix it. Okay. No, it's not. But it's getting better. Can you tell me anything else? Have you seen her?

I have seen. I got a furlough. I'm sorry, a what? A furlough. So I could see her for 24 hours. I thought a follow was a new kind of photo online that you could get from some. one. A folo?

Is that what you thought I said? Yep. Listen, if I hear something like that, I'm just going to assume I'm of a certain age where I just don't know what the hell that is. Like, oh yeah, she's sent a folo, you know, and I just act like I know what it was. How is Folo spelled in your mind? F-O-L-O. Okay.

Fabio only lives once. What? Fabio only lives once. Fabio only lives once. Folo. Also, I can tell Doug is laughing. My husband who's in a different room, you know what? I can tell that Doug is making faces without even hearing him, okay?

Honestly, me too. Here's why, because he didn't say hi right away. So I knew what he was doing is doing this face and we're not going to share what it is. It's private between him and I. But we're so used to Doug not being in this room. Yes. That we have somehow picked up on his gestures, facial expressions, his moods, without being able to see him.

Right. Just hearing the silences. Absolutely. So that just happened. And so Doug is, he's recording in a different room. Today he's recording in, oh boy, he's recording in the Pirates Lair. And let me tell you. The Pirates Lair.

Well, it's based on. Paces of eight. Mm. Ever since we went on the damn ride and the dog is holding the keys and there and, you know, and then the skeleton is drinking and it goes right through. He wanted to make, he wanted to, oh no. I couldn't, I couldn't, I couldn't, that's very good. He's, it's his favorite ride.

He wishes it could just be real. He said he wants to get off the boat and then wait and hang out there and like hide overnight and just like hang out there. I don't know what that means. It's not a lot of space. You know what I mean? I don't know. It's pretty big. It's pretty big, but they're all, I mean, it's not like they, there's any room back there.

You know what I mean? You don't know that. Okay, babe, tell us what are you, so anyways, are you doing, are you like recreating some of the scenes from it or are you doing a tavern? And Doug? That was a fair point. I missed the point. Oh, thank you. What was the point?

I don't know that for sure. He doesn't know what's behind this space. They may have on that ride. They may have built actual habitats for these animatronic pirates. It could be. Westworld style? Yep. And they're all nude back there.

All nude. Do you know, I couldn't get past when I was watching that show, how all those actors had to be just freezing cold because you know it was cold. I think about that. Every time I see a nude scene, that's all I think. That's all I think. I just think about the actor. It takes me out of it. Is that weird?

It's weird. How comfortable were it? I mean, I understand why because I'm an actor, but why do you do it? You're not an actor. But I know what acting is. Because I think a lot of times you put yourself in that position and say like, wow, they really ask a lot of people to take their clothes off. Yep. When they don't need to.

Anytime I see a night scene, you know, like all of severance, all I think is, oh, God, they were freezing the entire time. How horrible. But they're not nude in that, right? No, but it's still freezing. It's just cold. When you can see an actor's breath and a thing? Oh, boy, oh boy. But if Adam Scott was unnecessarily nude a lot during severance.

But they didn't show it. All right, Bay, what have you got going in the lair so far? All right, well, first things first. The one thing I don't like about that ride. Oh, okay. Is you know? Okay. Never heard this.

One thing. Oh, just one thing. It's when you pass under the pirate hanging his dirty foot over you. He's worried that the mud's going to fall on top of it. I just don't like being right under his dirty foot. He hates it. Now, I've never been on this ride. As we know, you've been.

to Disneyland, you bought a ticket, you went through the gate. I was overwhelmed by the flower display. And you turned around and went right back. Turn around and went right back. One of these days I'm going to go. I've only watched, you know, ride-throughs. Oh, you've never been on it, but it's your favorite ride. He, uh, it's weird.

We, he's been to Disneyland, but he says he likes it more when I said, no, no, you haven't, you said you hadn't been the ride. You said you've been to Disneyland, right? You said that, Doug. Wait, I just want to be clear. Is that what happened? Let's, Doug. But whatever Jones says.

It's time for honesty. No, no, you tell me, did he say he'd been to Disneyland? Or did he say I haven't? Did he say I haven't ridden pirates? Dignyland. Oh, Dignyland. Yeah. You went to Dignyland?

It's the closest I could get. I heard so many terrible stories about it. My parents forbade me from me. I never went out. It's Mickey Moose and it's. Moosey Mick. That's his girlfriend. That's right.

Goosey. Yes. They have a... It's a goose with a tiny green hat. They have one called Daffy Duck, which, first of all, that's not a play on Donald Duck. Also, the character isn't a duck. It's a big cat. That makes a note.

That makes a good. It's really weird. And his catchphrase is, no pictures, please. That's right. He holds out his arm stealing. He's going to hug you. And then you get close to him and he whispers, no pictures, please. It's really creepy.

Dignyland sucks. It's closed right now. Thank God. Thank God. How does it last so long? I don't know. Well, I think because it became like a popular like Instagram thing, right? You know what I mean?

Like there were people would go just to make fun of it, that kind of thing. That's right. What I guess I just meant to say is that I know he's not been on the ride. What he loves is me describing the right to him. And that is how he's built his whole entire sort of idea of it. Okay. So you've watched a lot of ride-throughs. Yeah.

And then also Judge's description. He says my descriptions are so amazing and illustrative. I had never been outside of Dignity Falls until we did our live shows. Yeah, that's right. Yeah. He's been to San Francisco twice, three times. That's it. In Los Angeles, yeah.

Los Angeles a couple times. Yeah. Well, we'll have to get you there at some point, babe. Maybe maybe next time. Or maybe somewhere that's not in California. That would be nice. It would be nice. Wouldn't that be nice?

Yeah. Well, I'm happy to tell you. Oh, I'm talking to. Sorry, babe. Why did you finish? I'm trying to de Johnny Depp the space a little bit. I was going to ask. Well, you shouldn't have started there because, you know, the ride didn't start with him in the first place.

And it's, okay. Oh, all right. You've told me this. I have told you this. Wait, wait, wait. Did you? They used to be actually pillaging the town. I know.

Well, they made it better. The women chase the men now. Everything's fixed. Yeah. The men, well, as I understand it now, The pirates used to be after, you know, pillaging the town. Of course, yes. And taking the women.

Are you Irish? Oh, they're after pillaging the town. Yeah, that's what it used to be. That's what it used to be. That's what it used to be. Now the pirates, as I understand it, are after food. So they're chasing the women for their place of food. I see.

In the Disneyland. They're objectifying food. Before they were pillaging the town when they were chasing the women. Yeah, now they're after food. What's the thing? And then now the women chase them. They're objectifying the food. And now they're,

and now they've added a layer of where they're after Johnny Depp. Okay. Well, that's. But I want to get back to just the food part. Okay. That's true. Do you know that the men who play the Johnny Depp version now of Captain Jack Sparrow at Disneyland? They get a lot of inappropriate women coming up to them.

Oh, do they have a guy? I walking around? Hotel keys, phone numbers, everything. They have a guy walking around? Yes, they do. They have a guy walking around. I did not realize that. I thought it was just confined to the ride.

No, they now have a guy who comes. Is that a recent edition? Not really. I think it's been around for like 10 years. Okay. It makes more sense, I guess. But all it is is just women coming up and being like, I think I'm a giant's narrow.

You know, really like, I mean, they're not happy about it, actually. What a sad thing that they have something that attracts weird people. people to Disneyland. I mean, that's not the only thing. There's all sorts of... All right. I'm happy to report that July P. She has moved back home.

Oh, July. Your daughter. And she's got a job. Yes. And she's working at the Denny Fals Zoo, which we haven't talked about the zoo here, have we? I don't think we've ever talked about the zoo. I don't know if we ever talked about the zoo.

We have a very, I mean, are we surprised? We have a very strange zoo. We have, we have sort of like the most of certain things of like all the wrong things and the least of the right things. There's a big glass box that's full of pigeons. A full of pigeons. We have a cat. We have a cat enclosure.

But we do have six pandas, which is crazy. Like we're trying to get rid of them. We're trying to get rid of them. No one will take them off her hands. It's crazy. Six. And they have sex all the time.

You can't say kids by there. It just fall out of trees and have sick. No, you can't. It's graphic. They figured out a way to play music. They did. They have it. All the bamboo is shaking.

Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I like the hot tub monkeys. They're in actual hot tubs. Yeah, and you can get in the hot tub. They're the hot springs. It just doesn't be a hot springs monkey bay.

But like because they didn't want to build hot springs, they just bought a couple hot tubs and just put them to them to get them to. They just didn't feel like it. Like, let's just leave it as is. The jets, the disco lights and everything. Yes. they're having a lot of sex too frankly they're a lot of sex they're a hot tub that's what happens they think we can't see it because under the water you can see everything you can see everything uh so she'll be uh she'll be working with the cats

that's where they start everybody right um again i don't know why that part exists but it's still popular they're all tuxedo cats they are they really are and uh and they they they they actually do like presentations you know what they you can take a cat around you could pet it and it's like what nice just pet my cat this morning. Why is this, why are you taking it around like it's an exotic animal to pet, you know, they bring the cats to schools. Speaking, you know what? What? I'm remembering this now. Somebody told me that they saw a yellow cat at the zoo. Bananas? My cat bananas who's been missing forever. Are you serious? Oh, bananas. Everyone's going to go hide in the zoo. Well, it's a terrible hiding place.

Well, you know what? This is great. I'll have July apie. Keep an eye out. Okay. For bananas. For Mads. She's working at the zoo, did you say? Is that how we got started on this? Yes. I'm trying to show that like my children are actually like doing things right now because they aren't always. That's right. The boys are working on.

I mean, I have to, I've mentioned this before that my twin boys are working on. This is not a great idea, okay? Because they got it from an AI post and they said that's not real because they saw Hamnet was a huge hit. Right. And then they thought, well, we want to do similar things. We want to do something like it. So the best they could come up with was Romeo and Juliet, Julienette. And because they were like, oh, no, it's also true that like Shakespeare based Roman Juliet on, you know, a girlfriend of his.

And I was like, no, that's not true. But what they've written is that that Shakespeare did have a girlfriend. Her name was Juliet. They couldn't. They were, you know, they were, they were forbidden from loving each other. And that he wanted to rewrite the ending because in real life, she took fake poison. And he had real poison. But he thought it was real poison.

So he found her. She was dead. And he took poison, but it was fake. so he actually didn't die, but she woke up in time to shoot herself or whatever it is. Shoot herself. Listen, I've been talking to the boys too much. All they know is Baz Luhrman's Roman Juliet, okay?

Oh, sure. That's all they know. So that's why I keep saying that. She uses a dagger. That's right, because it says dagger on the gun, right? That was the, I'm pretty sure it did. I'm sure that was the brand of gun they used. It said dagger.

I think we have talked about the devastating line you have made worms meat of me. I guess we have. Yes. To have the presence of mind to say that when you're dying is incredible. Because that's going to haunt. You would never forget that.

That is seared into your brain. That's all you'd ever think about for the rest of your life. That's the visual alone. And then he looked at me and said, you've made worms meat of me. Dead. One of the most epic clapbacks.

It's not even really a curse. It's just more of an observation. It appears you've made worms to make it. No, I think it's an accusation. I would grant you that. I think the shame on you is implied, Doug. I really do. I really do.

He also says a plague on both your houses. That's true, too. He was in a mood for sure. Absolutely. Three quick things. But he's set up throughout the whole thing as a real wordsmith, you know. So it makes sense. You got to give him a good death.

That's right. Yeah. But the boys just care about, you know, this, this, and, well, the point is that they're, they're going to write a story where Shakespeare's writing, trying to rewrite history, because what happened in Shakespeare's life with Julie Nett, and her name was Julie Nett. That's what they're saying. I'm like, don't she understand that this, none of this is real. Is it time, is there a cyber element to it?

Is that why she's Julie Nett? Well, you know what he wanted to do? He wanted to do MacNet, right? And I said, that sounds way too much like a tech thing, right? And I did say, yes, that sounds way too much. That sounds like a tech company, MacNet. Like, you can't. No one will know.

Romeo and Julienette, you kind of know what they're doing. Right? Do you? Well, listen, I've been in, I've been in this deep with them. So I've been too much in this. Are you being a dramaturg? They want me to be the nurse. And I was like, I am not old enough to play the nurse yet.

How dare you? So, yes, I'm working as a dramaturg because, you know, I've been taking that Shakespeare Monologue Workshop. It's just me and a guy. I've told you. it. Well, we haven't really talked about it. He's just yells at me all the time. But basically what happened is, you know, she took the fake poison. He comes in. He thinks she's dead. This is Shakespeare I'm talking about it. And his girlfriend, Julienet. And he took what he thought was real poison and passed out. And then she, I mentioned it has to be she has to stab herself herself. Because they didn't have guns.

Right. But then what happened is he woke back up. And he kind of just went, well, this is going to be a problem anyways. And he walked away. He didn't kill himself as well. Right. Which is what, you know, you should do. So that's why he rewrites, Rulorme, and Juliet, to make... You're saying that's what you should do in this situation. He felt that he felt that he had to, he felt guilty, right? Right. He felt so guilty that he's like, I'm going to rewrite my story where I kill myself too. And we both die.

Oh, I see. Okay. It's that kind of thing. Again, they barely, they just watch trailers and Instagram clips of the movie Hamnet. They don't even know what they're talking about. I've been trying to fill in the blinks for them. Okay. I'm just happy that they're trying to work on something.

Sure. All their projects have seemed to not work. The Chick-fil-A streaming service, prank pilot, prank your parents. Mr. Doubtfire for me. that didn't work out. And so we have this. And I'm just happy they're alive, like I always say. Is this maybe not their lane?

Theater, absolutely not. But, or what do you mean? Writing. What would you, anything that they've tried? What would you rather they do? I wish they wouldn't set things on fire, Bert. What do you want me to say? I mean, they never really stopped.

It's just that when I get them creatively involved and they don't do that. Of course I'm talking about my twin boys, Matt and Skeeter. And Skeeter. I'm just I just if I can get distract them then it works if I can get them going on a project then then it's better for me they sound like dangerous animals when you talk about them they're my dangerous animals

I love them I love them I can't help it you can't help it you can't help it's unconditional good boys it sure is they're good boys I mean I don't know if I'd say that well listen do I have regrets absolutely didn't they have guns back then Shakespeare times no no no what a what

they didn't have blunderbusses well here's the bus well here's the of the gun with the kind of trumpet. But it's not just, it's not just Shakespeare's time. It's also the, the specific places and times that Shakespeare's writing about. Yes, exactly. He's writing about Caesar. He's writing about Roman times.

Say sorry. Why? Explain. Please. That's how I like to say it. Oh, that's all you like to say. That's all it is. Okay.

He just likes to say that way. Yeah, he's always ordered the Cesar salad and then the waiter rolls of eyes. Yeah, I always order a say sorry salad. I order a Kaiser salad. Oh, that's fun. Come with a little helmet. Okay. Do you think we've been talking long enough?

I think so. Doug, what say you? Hmm. My opinion or my facts? My opinion or my facts. I guess facts? Yeah, facts. Just the facts first.

Just the facts, ma'am. 22. You got... Every time. Every time. Internal clock. The internal clock is perfect. We can tell when we're sick of our talking.

We can tell when other people are sick of our talking. But my fear is, my fear is, if we stop asking, we will go wild. We'd never stop. If we assume, if we like said, let's not ask the sign, we have a good gauge of it. We would absolutely go to 75 minutes. We can't do that.

We can't do that. We must not. Okay. We'll be right back with the neighborhood list when the neighborhood is returns. This is Jennifer. I've got a stars and stripes wall hanging for $30. Stars and Stripes. That's what it says on the top.

And it is our American flag and it's shredded. It is. It is in tatters. It is tattered and torn. It is, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's destroyed to ribbons. It's, um, the, the stripes are also going the wrong way. Any way you look at it. any way you turn it around, this is actually not.

The American flag, as we know it, it's torn to shreds. So I can't look at it anymore. And if I give it away, maybe everything will change, if you know what I mean. So if you'd like to come get this shredded symbol, this symbolic symbol, come at me with $30. Oh, welcome back. Isn't that fun? Yes.

Do you know what that reminded me of? What? You might not remember this, but when we had that one wild guest on Sandy who thought all the birds were gone, he was talking about Honey Babe's ham, which is a business that we have here. Yes. And it's not like a honey baked ham. That's what most people have. But they have like hot girls spinning signs out front. And then we talked about the commercial.

the poster, which is a pit with a ham, basically getting sliced in the back. And he says, oh, that'll do. And that, it reminds me of the commercial when he goes, oh, the way you said, oh. I did not mean. You don't remember that? I do. Of course, I remember. I did not mean to imitate that ham.

You totally were, though. Yeah. Oh, that'll do. God, it looks so delicious. It does look. So sick and twisted. Is there anything more delicious than an Easter ham? Just a thick cut slab of ham.

So flavorful. So flavorful. So healthy. I like eat the white part. All right. I'm sorry, everybody. We have a guest, Joe. Too much ham content.

Ham tent. Ham tent. Is that anything? Oh, I don't know. Ham tent. Ham tent. If you keep saying it, maybe it will be. We have a guest here today at the Kitchen Island, as we do every week.

What we do, folks, is we scour the neighbor app, the social networking application for neighborhoods. We look for interesting neighbors to talk to. Maybe somebody wants to amplify their message. Maybe somebody has a question. Maybe they need to be held to account for something. And this is no different. Now, look, if you have a post that you think we should talk about, why don't you screenshot it and send it to it to it? us at burnt and Joan at gmail.com.

This was sent to us by John Newcomer. Oh, love that. What a great name. Do you think it's an actual name? I absolutely think it could be. Newcomer. He was probably dates all the way back to some of the first people here. Do you know, I mean, I guess it makes sense because every person that's born in the family

will be a newcomer. Exactly. But eventually they're not anymore, though. Sure. But you can't. You can't just, I'll say, I said Johnny come lately. Babe. That's a good point.

Thank you. Really good point. Could you see my face? I did. I saw it in my head. I could picture my mind how pleased you were with yourself. This is in the crime and safety section. This was posted by Deborah.

Deborah says, So I went to the recycle center today to drop off some recycles. This man and then another came and was stealing things from the large metals area. I told him he can be arrested for taking things. He said, oh well, three question marks. Three exclamation marks. Then another man came and almost did the same until he saw me taking photos. If you're driving nice vehicles, why do you feel the need to steal from our city?

Especially when there are blinding signs stating what I've said. So I went to the recycle center today to drop off some recycles. This man, and then another came and was stealing things from the large metals area. I told him he can be arrested for taking things. He said, oh well, two exclamation, two questions. marks, three exclamation points. Hold on a second, I'm so sorry. That's okay. That's okay. Two question marks,

four exclamation points. Okay, got it. Thank you. Then another man came and almost did the same until he saw me taking photos. If you're driving nice vehicles, why do you feel the need to steal from our city? Especially when there are blinding signs stating what I've said. If you only get a couple pennies per pound, why bother wasting the gas to and from? Here to say more is Deborah. Deborah, welcome to the neighborhood listening.

Hi, Deborah. Hi, sorry, I'm in such a rush. Oh, okay. Yeah. Why are you in such a rush? I got to tell people about the pirate. Oh, you're in a rush to spread the communication about the pirates. I see, I see.

Now, the first thing's first, Deborah. So I went to the recycle. Deborah, Deborah. To drop off some. You can understand. You can understand. She's in a rush, she's in a rush and she needs to get the information. when there are blinding signs.

Yeah, I didn't really want to know what that means. But ask your first question first. But now you did in your post. You wrote the same thing. Did you see it? I did say I just read it out. Okay. Verbatim.

And you said the same thing twice. You saw what I said. You did change up the punctuation the second time at the end. And then you had a brand new sentence to round it out. Now, why did you feel the need to type it twice? And what was the deal with the pronunciation? The ex. The punctuation change.

I'm just in such a rush right now. This seems the opposite of that. Yeah, it seems actually more thought through. Yes. Okay, all right. She answered your question. What I want to know is why there's this other man and then there's always another man. Yes.

Many, so many men coming. Yes. And why when their cars are so nice? I understand. Do they feel the need to steal from our city? Well, but, but, but it's not, do you, so you feel like once it goes into the recycle center, once a recycle goes into the recycle center, that it becomes then the property of the city. Of course. Okay.

I don't know that I 100% agree with that. Well, you don't have to agree with, with the laws of the land. No, you do. No. Or you go to jail. That's just, I'm just got, I'm just got, okay. But I feel that. I feel that it's until the city picks it up, it's still fair game.

Like if you see something you need, you can take it. Oh, boy. Wow. She is. She's laughing, but she's not laughing. Burnt, have you ever lived on a street? Oh. Do you mean have I been...

She's got you there. Unhoused? No. Have you lived in a home on the street? Yes, I have. I currently do. Okay. When you put out your trashes.

Yes. And you... Your trashes? When I put out a trash. When you put out your trashes and your recycles. Yes. While they're on the street, are they yours? Um, I guess.

Good question. They're always yours. Okay. Good question to me. You complimented her question and she answered for you, Byrne. They're always yours. I kind of like that. Even after the city takes them away?

Good question to me. Good question to me. I got to go. No, no, no, no, you just got here. No, you just got here. Please, you just got here. Please. Okay.

What I want to know is, here's the thing. I get, I get that it's not right. It bothers me to. But as you said yourself, just because it's sort of like, it's tacky. It's tacky. I think it's tacky. You know, just going around and grabbing recycling. You know, I just, it's, why when they're driving such a nice car?

No, the nice car bothers you because you're just thinking, okay, okay, it keeps coming up. So can you please explain to me what you mean by blinding signs? They're blinding signs. I'm going to need more. I always drive with my high beams on. Oh, you're one of those people. So bright. Right, because they're reflective.

Which is a problem I have with the city as well. Oh, well, you could always just not have your brights on and it's really not as bad. You really shouldn't. I would never drive without my high beams on. And what is that? Because I've got to get to where I need to go. And I've got to see it. Right. But that's more of a speed issue, right?

Not a site issue. I'm going very slowly. Why? Very slowly. High beams on. I'm going to get my daughter from ballet. So you're someone who's driving on these roads. You're out here on these streets.

You're driving with your high beams. And what do you think? 10 miles an hour? Seven. For the children. Right, because you don't want to hit me kids. Yes. And I do.

What? You've hit children before their car? Of course. The children are being so bad. Setting things on fire. Oh, she just gestured to me because she's mentioning She's thinking of my boys.

I get it. Listen, that's a fair point. But let's not bring my children into it. They're also men now. They are men, actually. They're your children, but they're men. They're your children, but they're men. They went from boys.

Two men. Okay. I love that movie. Was that a movie? Boys are men? I love that film. All right. So you'll only go to the end of the road,

but like seven miles and hours, what you're saying. Yes. Okay. So I like to believe. every zone is a school zone. Okay, but the thing is... You like to believe that. But the thing is...

Because that's what I agree with. You think every zone should be a school zone. Mm-hmm. Okay. But if you drive too slow, that can also be dangerous. Exactly.

If you're not driving a speed limit, it's bad whether it is over the speed limit or under the speed limit. I think people forget about the underpart. Yes, they do. Mm-hmm. I just, you know, it's my job to post online about the neighborhood.

Oh, like, is it like, are you paid to do it? No. Oh, okay. But it's my job. duty and I pay myself to do it because someone has to pay yourself to that. Someone has to notice your self-employed poster. What are the mechanics of that? Interesting. The mechanics are fingers and no no, no. I'm at the payment. Oh, the business model. The business model. It just shows up. If you do the work, it will come to you. If you're from you, if you're, if you're an

unemployed mom at home and you're rushing to get to your kids and to help your kids from people, who want your recycling, the city's recycling, people who don't want to be able to see high visibility signs. Wait, I'm going to stop you there. How do the men and the other men taking their cycles out, how are they affecting your kids? As a mother. Joe, Joe.

Good question for me. Good question to me. Oh, no. Bad question to me. I understand that. As a mother, I'm shocked to hear you ask something. Why? Why?

Because you want your, you. your little baby boy children to go outside and see people taking cardboard, cardboards? I don't, I guess. From not their bins? Yeah, I don't find. I don't see that. I don't see that as a threat.

Yeah. Because I don't want them to. You don't want them to. Right. So that's a using. And it's the law of the city council passed it. It's not, I don't know about that. Oh, yes.

I'm on every Zoom. Oh, okay. I understand. I believe that you are. I do believe that. Yes. Yes. Yes, for my children. But see, that it sounds like it's more for yourself.

Yes, it does. No, this is for everyone. Have they mentioned it? Have they said to you, mom? They don't need to. Let's talk about your kids for a minute. What have you got at home? And I want to bring my kids into this. Okay. I have a couple of daughters in ballet that I have to go get. I understand.

How old are they? What are the names? Around. Around. I've never heard. For the names or for the number. I don't like to answer a question this way. I don't like to say their ages online.

And I know exactly how radio programs like this work. And it's going to be on the cloud. Well, first of all, we're not a radio program. We're a podcast. It's a little different. But this is reporting. This is journalistic on the internet. Oh, I guess we don't think of our podcast as journalism.

No, it shouldn't be counted as journalism. Some more community aid kind of. Well, I'm very concerned with how I'm represented in the news. media as Deborah. Okay. Have you been in the media much? Yeah, like what spaces are you on? What are you talking about? Facebook posts and you mean you represent yourself or how people talked about you? Neighborhap. Many people have talked about you on neighbor hab? So many people are talking about me on. And you think that's the media? Mm-hmm. What are they saying? What are they saying about you?

Well, they're saying why is she posting so much? They're saying why are her high beams on? Why is she driving so fast? Do you hear, do you hear that when you're saying that right now? Wait, thank you's you of driving so fast? Yes. Oh, I didn't catch that. If you can believe that there are people crazier than me out there. Wait, is it possible that you're driving faster than you think you are? Because you are saying you're in a rush all the time. That's that accusatory tone that the media tends to take.

We're not trying to. We're not the media. We're not fake names. We're really not trying to do a gotcha here. No, no gotchas. But let me ask you this. Do you ever look at the spitometer when you're driving? What to that?

Spatometer. Speedometer. No, no, no. Spatometer. It is the, it's a little dial or. Or a digital display. It's right in your light of sight. I'm looking at the ballet, the ballet house that I have to go get my girls from.

Interesting. And is that always in your field of vision from the moment you leave your house? Is it really close to it? Do you live in a house on my street? And thank you. The good question. Good question to me. Oh, good question to you.

Our house in the middle of the street? Good question to me. Who's that? Yeah. Sorry. That's my husband, Doug. He's recording in a different room. I'm scared.

He's in a different room. You don't need to be. scared. He's not doing anything wrong. See, there's a secret man in the house. It's not a secret man. I've been married to him for a very long time and he's not secret to me. I've read some posts about that I will say. Excuse me. Excuse me? Are people posting about us on neighborhood? That I'm a secret man. Of course. What? What are they posting? What are you talking about? What are you talking about? You were, you should be involved in the discourse about your own discourses. I try not to go on as everybody, as I've talked about on this podcast. I don't like the comments. I get nervous about. social media. So no, I don't know what you're talking about. Are they saying bad things about me and Doug? Are they saying on true things? No. Truth and good or bad are all relative. They're subjective and they're the laws of the land. You really like to say laws of the land. Yes. Well, I'm on line a lot. It is fun to say laws of the land. I guess it is. It's the law of the land. Yes. All right. Yes. Now you're getting it. But now, but now, but now, but now.

Okay, so you say this thing about the nice cars. Mm-hmm. And you're assuming... So nice. What kind of cars are we talking about? Great question. Okay, Alexis. One of them was Alexis.

Absolutely. No, no, not the name Alexis. Bladow. Oh, wait. Oh, no, Alexis Bladale. Yes. From Gilmore Girls. Yes.

Yes. Passing through, driving a man who came and took recycles. Really? That doesn't sound like her. It really doesn't. Driving a man. I haven't seen her recently, so I don't know if she looks old. Maybe the car wasn't a man.

I'm so. Sorry, I need to apologize for my husband. Doug, you're verging on the Amelia Bedelian at this moment. Yes, also posting. She's posting. No, she's not real. It's not a real. I'm worried about like a sense of,

there seems to be a very gray line between reality and maybe some things that are just not actually happening. Like you being able to see the ballet house, which I've never heard anyone say that. I hear people say ballet studio. I've heard that. I've heard that too. You just

I know I did I wish I understood humor Oh no You don't Nothing makes you laugh Huh Wait you don't even know what a laugh is Have you ever laughed in your life?

I've got to get my girls I understand But you didn't always have your girls So can you tell us the names of your girls? I'm not too sure about that Can tell us their names And see you're trying to gouch me I'm not trying to got you

At all No one's gotching. I'm not gotching. We're not gotchers. No. I came on this program to alert the town. Yes, that there is people taking recycles. There are thieves.

But it sounds like they're trying to hurt. Hold on it. How are they murderers? What are they doing with the supplies? We can only imagine. We can only assume. I assumed from your post, which you wrote twice. Twice.

Yes. That almost said a third time here. Yes. That you assumed, by the mention of the night, nice cars that they were selling this stuff. They're only getting pennies for the pound. But they could be actually taking things that are useful to them.

I'm saying I could use that. Maybe they're upcycling it, which is a wonderful thing. Upcycling is wonderful. I'm so sorry. What does that mean? Oh, well, it means that you take something that might be useless to somebody like a broken cup and you decide, no, I actually see

in this broken cup a brand new lamp and I'm going to build a lampshade, I'm going to build the stand. And now I have a lamp that I can sell to you would you have never known it was from a piece of trash. How big is that lamp? Really small. Guys, okay. No, I'm just curious.

I want to see it. I'm going to my life. Joan is really proud of the lamp. About a beautiful lamp. I want to see it in my mind. The journey that it went on and this is the problem that you have with it. You wonder how big it is. Joan, I have to say, good question to me.

It's a reading light, okay? This is classic. Okay. That's all I wanted to know, Joan. Oh, the kind you attached to a book, one would. No, something that you put on a nightstand. This is not what we. should be arguing right now. I am trying to make a point to her. And we got very distracted.

It's a lovely lamp. Did you hear when he said, oh well? Which time? Who said oh well? Burnt? No, the meant and burnt could have been there. Who said oh well? Oh yeah. He did say the men said oh well twice with varying degrees of punctuation. That's right. That's right. That was a weird response. Oh. And also how do you say it? Because you do a line reading for me. Is it like oh well? I should say no, no. It's it's oh well is in quotes and then afterwards, I think it is Deborah's punctuation. I wasn't clear. That was my emotional was your outrage. I see. So it was more like

an oh well. No. Oh, how did they say it? It feels quite clear the way that I wrote it. It's not. And I'm asking you to say it. Could you do it? I just Should we role play? I'll be you and you be the man? No, nobody here has time for this. I mean, this is what we're doing,

our podcast. So we have plenty of time. We actually booked time for this. To talk to you. Yes. I know. And I'm just hoping that there's a live frequency sort of getting out to everybody to keep their eyes and ears peeled. I'm going to try to spring it on her. Okay, okay.

You can be arrested for taking things. She didn't go for it. Didn't work. Try it one more time. You can be arrested for taking things. You sound so beautiful. Oh. Well, I'm quoting you.

Because she loves, that's exactly right. Yeah. I get it. She's like hard eyes because I said something she said. How did you know? that's my favorite thing to say. Well, you said it twice. You said it a couple times in there.

Yes, I say it as often as I can. Okay. So then you strike me as someone who likes to see someone doing something, go over, make sure that you give them your opinion of what you think about it. Exactly. And, you know, a lot of people don't like that. That's very true. Interesting.

Yeah. And Mike, okay, so let me have another moment for hopefully a good question to me. Do you have a lot of friends that you hang out with? Maybe mom friends. Do you have a community? Do you have a group? Online. Anyone in person?

Yes, the girls at the ballet house. The girls in the ballet house? Do you mean the other moms or, yeah, teachers? Mostly the girls. The students? Yes, yes, yes. Okay. How many students?

Two. Okay, so it's your daughters. Oh, it's just your daughters? Yes. Really? They're the only students. Okay. this is a smaller bit, you know.

I'm going to say it's probably the only student she's aware of. I am organizing a lot of community events. Oh, great. Let's hear some of those. I've got to call such as. Oh, yes. So there's the bake and wake where you bake a lot of things and you mourn. And everyone in the town has always been invited to these things and they don't really show up. I guess I don't know.

Are you mourning something one specific each time? time or you mourning in general? Anyone who has passed. Oh, wow. Okay. In that moment. Right. Because as we all know, everyone is dying all the time. Yeah. We don't like to think about all the time. But that is true. Every moment someone is dying. Which is why it's so confusing to me that people with nice cars will take those moments when they should be mourning or getting their girls from ballet house. Let me ask you, what if they were in cars that were just mid? Like, what if they were just sort of like nothing to write home about, not ugly. What's that awful?

Like a Saturn. Yeah, just like a regular car. Would that make you angry? Is it the cars that make you angrier? Or is it, or what if it was just a sort of, yeah, like a Saturn, like Burton said? I would understand them being thieves and murderers. How are they murderers? We did not get a clear answer on this.

How can you know that? Doug, she's people around. You're not following them around. I got a good point when I said that. But I don't have tug. It's the same person. It's the same person. He's building a pirate's lair right now.

And, uh, you know. Oh, I'm sorry. A cardboard and medals. No, no, no. Oh, whoa. Almost got hit by a cannonball. That someone dropped. It sounded like an actual cannonball by an actual human.

How far away was it shot from? We heard no. No cannon fire. Like I said, it sounds like a human doing a cannibal. That's the cannonball. So, I don't know that you can say, even though we don't know people are not murdering people. Yes. That the default is to assume that they are.

Yeah, that just seems that's not, you can't do that. You can't do that. I want to return, and again, I don't have too much time, but I want to go back to what you said earlier, Joan, which is that people may not be liking the things I'm doing. or saying. I think that it's true because you said people are posting about you all the time. They are talking about your driving as if it's dangerous. I think these might be things to pay attention to, perhaps. In what way?

In the way that you say, oh, maybe I should stop driving so slowly, so fast. Maybe I'm actually driving very fast and I'm actually being very dangerous. And me being in a rush is actually causing other problems for other people. But how am I supposed to know if that's true when everyone's always on the attack to me all the time. I would see that, but that's the indicator. Because if it's just one person, you can always say, well, that's one person's opinion. But this seems to be everybody's opinion.

And I bet if I saw you drive, my hunch is that I would think it was fast as well. Do you know who you're reminding me of, Deborah? And I hate to say this. Craig Conover from Southern Charm. It's everybody's fault but yours. This is a reality show I've never seen, so I can't help you hear with this. That is such a nice thing to say. Oh, no.

Oh. I don't think. All the cops were coming up with her. She's happy with. I don't. I don't think you should be thinking that. You know, I've been exchanging DMs online with Shep.

And he, oh, she knows. He says his dad is very sick and so I sent him money. Oh, no. Oh, no. I think you got scammed. No, no, no.

And Keanu Reeves. Oh, no, no, no, no. Both of their dads are very sick. No, Keanu has several different accounts online. Please don't release this episode because this is a very big secret. We just will cut that part out. Yeah, we'll cut this part out. My husband doesn't know a thing.

Tell us about your husband. But Keanu has. Oh, hang on. Let's find out about Keanu first. What's Keanu's problem? We don't need to talk about my husband. But Keanu has several different accounts online because the media is looking for him. And so he messages me from a bunch of different accounts.

What? Does he say why the media is looking for him? media is looking for him? Does he say why the media is looking for him? He just says, my love, they're looking for me. Oh, so you're in a romantic relationship with him. Yes, yes. Has he asked you for money?

Yes. Now, see, that doesn't track. Keanu Reeves would not ask you for money. He didn't need to. Oh, dear. You just sent him money? Of course. Tamara, you have no way of knowing if you have not hung out with the actual

Kiannero's in real life. You have no way of knowing if this is someone else. Cantero? I said it too fast. Did you say Kano Reeves? Do you remember Kanneroo's? from when you were a kid? I do not, but it sounds familiar.

It was underwear that was, it looked like camel soup cans. Oh, I thought that they were cans that you dunk in frosting. Yeah, that's right. You would dunk with tin can pretend to be a goat. Now, you said you don't want to talk about your husband. We do.

Can we just ask you questions like, how long have you been married? Yeah, that's got to be fair. Gotta be. 40 years? 40. 40 years? How old are you kids?

Yeah, and how old are you? Five and six. But I won't, and don't air, just don't air this episode. I mean, we can't, we can't just simply not have an episode, but. Why would we continue to talk if we're just not going to air this?

You've gotten my guard down. This is the longest I've gone without posting online. Wow. This is an accomplishment. And also, that's not healthy. No, it's not healthy. I don't know.

I feel, I feel wonderful in this moment and I feel terrible in this moment. Oh, well, you know what? That actually speaks. To me, what that says to me is progress. From the blinding signs. Yeah, you've got to take those brights off. And I have no idea if my girls have gotten out of ballet this point.

Well, what time is their class? What time? How long does it last? Four. It lasts, it's done at four? Yes. All right. It's two o'clock.

You're fine. It's literally going to be two hours from now that you need to go get them. There's no way of knowing that. No, there is. Because there's a club. We have several clocks here. You can see in my kitchen. They have a few pre-ballet activities as well.

Okay. Such as. Well, I have to. drive them to the, to the bacon wake. And I have to drive. They're going to the bacon wake. To pool. So wait, what do the five-year-old and six-year-old do when morning?

Are they, like, comfortable with death and all of that? Yes. Okay. Have you guys lost someone close to you? No, no. A hamster in a shoebox? No, but here's the thing. This is what's wrong with society and what's wrong with this town is that people aren't

teaching their kids stuff like this. And people aren't talking about it online. Well, okay, the online part will leave aside. I do agree that some cultures, you know, educate us about death a little sooner, and I think that that can be good. And I don't think we should be learning about those cultures. Oh, well that.

Why is that? Because I don't know about them, and that scares me. Oh, I see, I see, I see. Okay. So if anyone is doing anything different from you, it's wrong. Yes. Yes. This is because you're, this is because you should have.

She emphatically agreed with them. You should come to dinner with me and Shep. Is that his name your husband? No. No, from Southern Charm. Oh, sorry. I don't watch that show. Has Shep promised to come see you here?

Mm-hmm. Okay. I really believe that that's a scam. There's a, this happens a lot online where somebody impersonates a celebrity. I'm online, sure. So you've seen my posts. Well, I've seen at least one of them. Okay.

Yeah. You don't follow you. So. I read it at the beginning of this interview. Okay. Yes. and what happens is a lot of scam accounts will pretend to be celebrities saying,

I know that you're a big fan of mine, I need help for some reason, and then sometimes they promise you something. Sometimes they don't. They just say, I need help. And do you think that they don't like the things I say or do? I don't think that it has anything to do with it. I think they send this email it to hundreds of people.

They don't know even who they're talking to. And it's a form letter. See, that's where you're wrong. These are DMs. Yes, a DM can also be, that's exactly, that can also be scam. They're just cutting and pasting, sending it to a million people. That's all they do.

Hoping to catch it. She doesn't see you to believe us. She doesn't sound like Shep. Well, you just don't want to believe it. That's the whole thing. I don't follow. You're really on a one-track mind here because you won't. Why would Keanu do that with so many different accounts?

You mean why? I'm sorry. Oh, so multiple Kiano accounts are messaging you saying they need help. Yes. Yes. Did you be more concerning? I did not, I did not read. I mean, I, are you posting about the Kiano thing?

You shouldn't be posting about that. Not on name. Maine. Yeah. Okay. Okay. I never posted about Kiano on Maine. On 4chan.

Forge. Oh my God. You shouldn't be there. What? It's a wonderful meeting place for moms. Oh, wow. I mean, maybe it's changed. Maybe mom's rehabilitated fortune.

Honestly, that would be good for it. Sure. And the Michael's comment section. The craft store? Yes. Oh, I bet you it gets really bad. I guess nasty in there. Yes, informative.

Informative. Oh, can you give us an example of that? So I, when I'm in the city council Zoom public hearings, I'm also in the Michael's comment section for a lot of different Ottomans, picture frames, types of glues, telling, update, giving them updates about what's going on.

So multiple tabs open, following the city council meeting, but also tracking what's going on with Michael's. Baking morning cookies. Making morning cookies. Yes. Okay. And what kinds of things are they saying about Michael's trash? Watching my ring cameras that I set up at the Recycle Center.

Oh, so you set up cameras? I don't think that's legal. Yeah, that might not be legal. Now, who is to determine something like that? The person probably owns the building you attach the cameras to. Yeah. There's not a build. A trash.

What do you attach them to? The recycles area is not a building. It's open air. Okay, babe. Who is that? I have, it's my husband. I've explained this before to you. Who is this nice ghost?

He's not a ghost. She's just in a different room. It's not chef. As much as we wish, Shep, where a ghost is not in. No, I'm worried about her. There seems to be a real disconnect from reality. It better not be West, I'll tell you that.

I'm lost here because I don't watch Southern. That's Southern House. That's Summer House. Southern House. That's a great. Southern House is a great show. They have two shows. One is Southern Charm and one is Southern Charm and one is Southern House.

What are we doing? What are we doing? There's Southern Hospitality. Oh my God. There was Southern Charm Savannah. I can't. The big scandal on that show was somebody did not disclose they worked a baggage claimant with your airport.

Why did that matter? That is one of that. Very disappointing. Why did that matter? It did. It mattered to her. It mattered to her. It mattered to her.

It did matter to her. It did matter to her. It was a betrayal. Can you imagine? Summerhouse. There was a scandal with Summerhouse just recently. Okay. Which is where a bunch of the Bravo people all come together and be disgusting in the workplace.

We need that. We need that. My friends are going through. really hard time. Oh, you call them your friends. They are. Based on what? How are they your friends? DMs. Yes. Okay.

I think that you're being taking advantage of. Yeah. That's not nice to hear. Well, that's an honest, now that's an honest reaction. That is an honest reaction. And I appreciate that. Doesn't mean it landed, though. I am having a bad time. Oh, but not to worry, I always am.

Oh, you're always having a bad time? What does make me worry. That does make me worry. Yeah, that's not a great thing to be able to say. I'm always having a bad time. It's just because Corgi. It's just because Corgi? Is that the name of your husband?

Yes. Okay. So Corgi is somehow, is he part of your bad time? Yes, but that's what husbands are. No, they're not supposed to be. It shouldn't always be sometimes maybe, but that's just life. What does Corgi do for a living? Fetch.

He came up with an app called Fetch. Oh, and what happens on Fetch? Oh, great. You throw, you take a picture of a stick outside and find out who threw it and how far. And see if you can return it. Now, does the phone somehow, does it, Does it identify the stick? Is that one of those apps where, like when you're trying to find out what kind of bird it is?

So you take a picture of the stick and then the app will tell you, here's who threw the stick and here's how far. Yes. That seems impossible to me. So are people on this app checking to see, I guess if you threw a stick, you're checking to see if someone found your stick, maybe. And if it's a match. Because you have to. I mean, yeah, do you get alert? Yeah.

Well, unfortunately, Deep State is blocking its ability to become popular. Okay, all right. Is that what Corgi said? Yes. Okay. Is Fetch spelled FETCH or is there some sort of clever spelling of it? I'm so glad you asked. It's F-E-Z.

Really? The end? Sorry, I have a blood clot. Oh, geez. Why are you here? This is so concerned. I've got to get my girls. She froze.

You have to go to the office. She froze and she's like she powered down. I don't know where you went to snow. Like Olav at Disneyland in France. I'm so glad you asked. It is called, it is spelled F, E T-C-H. That is what I said. Okay, that's the same.

Well, that's the blood clot. Very clever. That's blood clot talking. Honestly, that's very serious. And I think you need, I think, I think all of your obsession with these people. Don't just say no. It is very serious. There's not a matter of opinion.

That's a very serious thing. Again, it seems like everybody around you. God gave me this blood clots. Sure. And I take all of the vitamins that I need to. And I take good care of my blood clots. Blood clots are not something you tend to like a garden, like flowers. You need to eradicate them.

You need to get rid of them. Because, you know, you said all of us. What violent language. You said all of us are dying. I think you are dying. I think that you literally, maybe this might be the day where you, it could be instant. You're dying. Okay.

That's again, it's not. Because you're not acknowledging, this is all of this not acknowledging what's going on in the real world is killing you. I think what's killing you is how obsessed you are with these people in these cars. Oh, I think it's the blood clots. I think what's causing the blood clots. Oh, that's what I meant. The recycles, the recycles, the recycles, the recycles men. are killing me and many people.

You're letting them affect you in a way that you have control over. I'm saying turn off the ring cameras. Don't look at it. Don't follow them one night. You don't need to care about this. And you might find if you put that phone down that you have a peaceful night. That doesn't make you angry. Try to get your husband.

Encourage your husband to get a real actual job. Yeah, to get a job unless he's making just a ton of money off a fetch. He's making billions of billions. Billions. Yes. I would have heard of it, I feel like. You make one app. You make billions of dollars.

I mean, I know that that is possible. Is this what Corgi says? Yes. Okay. Have you seen proof of this billions of dollars? I am not allowed. Okay. I had a feeling.

I don't like that. It's just ended there. I mean, she could be talking about a lot of things. Joan, I think that you may have a future in life coach podcasting. Well, thank you. I've actually thought about that. You're going to take that as a compliment from her? There are a couple other real estate actresses.

There are a couple other real estate actress life coaches that I listen to online. Wait, no, what? I've heard of real. There's someone already doing what I want to do? I've certainly heard of real estate novelists, but I've never heard of real estate actresses. Real estate actresses podcast or life coaches. Yes. Everyone is doing everything everywhere.

Nothing. You got that right. What did you say, babe? All it was. Good one, babe. Debra, I feel like we have gotten away from the initial, uh, point of your appearance about the recycling. I agree.

And I don't think we're going to find any sort of resolution there. I hope you feel good that you've gotten your message out there. Hang on. But I think we've stumbled into something more important. Yes, yes. But I do. Okay. Finish.

Finish. I'm sorry. I had a thought. It was pretty much done. Okay. Great. I want to know, and I ask this often,

have you received any, did you receive any comments on this post? Mm-hmm. Okay. Well, what did they say? People are talking about her all the time. Well,

about her all the time, but specifically, was there anyone else who seemed upset about this as you are in the comments. Oh, yes. There are a few people who are upset that I'm posting their faces, that I found out where the men live. Oh, no. Yes, that I'm posting the license place. So you're dachshund people. Yeah. That's not okay. Yeah. That's not okay. Well, how else are we going to stop them from murdering? Again. We have no proof that they're murderers, and I know we have no proof that they're not, but you can't prove a negative. That's right. That, that,

is not true. I wonder how much of this is the plot. Source? Yes. Yes. This is utterly, it's frustrating because I want to help you. You're a mom. You've got two kids. I have ten kids.

What? Yes. But only two go to ballet house? Yes. You have ten kids. Oh. I mean, I guess it's true. We never.

I guess we never established the number. She wouldn't tell us anything about them. That's true. Are they all at the house? Do they all live with you still? I wish every question should have to take in as if it's, she's being injured by it. It's baffling to her. It's because I wish that we would just focus on the important things.

She's also mostly done this entire interview with her eyes closed. Yes, which I, you know, it's hard not to feel that it's rude. Well, I like to, I like to envision that I am driving to the ballet house. And this is how I drive to the ballet house. No, no, no, no, no. You don't drive with your eyes closed. I do. No.

This is getting less than first. Stop. You mustn't. You mustn't. How did you two even get this job? We sweat. And the ghost of Shep. She's really far gone.

I don't know what to do. No, Deborah, I feel like we've hit an impasse here because. you know, we disagree about recycling being stealing, taking recycling from the bin. And also... It also doesn't mean murder. It doesn't mean murder. So we disagree on that. Also, I think your grasp of reality is tenuous at best.

Absolutely. I have a good question. Okay. Okay, Doug. Okay, Doug. Hit it, sweetheart. Oh. I like that.

Okay. Calm down. At the recycling center, are there any signs that have three, R's on them. Yes. They're blinding. Do you know what those three R's stand for? Oh, geez, that was close.

Sorry, I got... That can't be an actual cannonball, babe. Sure is. So, were you going to tell her what the R's stand for? Reduce. Uh-huh. The second one's the most, you know, impactful here. Okay.

reuse right and then the third are recycles yeah there you go also a film Shep that's a RRRRRR

oh yes yes yes a bad yes yes so why do you not like RRRR oh I miss that opportunity oh I missed that opportunity Honestly Doug I thought When I heard the cannonball

I thought is he going for RRRR You didn't say that out loud. No, I didn't say that. So I get credit for. Of course, it's your, for not saying it. When you say, what's going on?

Can't prove it. All right. So what was your, what did you think was going to hit her? Ghost Shep, my darling. The reuse people are reusing. This is a really incredible point. I know.

I'm the one who said the upcycle things. I never knew that. Yeah, but you said up cycle. Not you. No. Doug and I're having a fight. I'm also talking. Yeah.

No. We can all talk at the same time. There's no law against it. We can all talk at the same time. That's right. Now, look, I think that they are taking advantage of the reuse idea and they're reusing something. Well, I never knew that reuse was a part of it because the sign was so bright.

I know the sign was so bright. I see. I guess I should have said instead of upcycle. I should have said reuse because that's what I was trying to say, that's all. All being horrible stealers. Share credit. To take little cups and make them into a. nightlight. Yeah, that was my example.

Maybe it wasn't the most eloquent, okay? But I was trying to convey the same idea as that. And Doug said it more plainly. Up cycle sounds like maybe a bicycle kind of thing. That's why I was so confused. I don't think anyone thought that, babe. One of those really tall fixed gear bags. I've been really confused and upset ever since I started thinking

about that. About which? The bike. Yeah, unicycles. Isn't it great to see someone on a unicycle in a park? So why would these people be reusing things? Because they don't want to fill... Hold on a second, Joan.

Why wouldn't they? There you go. Please explain it to me. Maybe that's how they got their nice cars. It's all that money saves. Because not everything is a single-use thing that you then just discard. What?

This can't be news to you, Deborah. What are you talking about? Deborah. Do you wear new, brand-new clothes every day? Yes. Why? Amazon. How are you doing? I order new clothes from Amazon every day.

What do you do with all the boxes? Throw them into the... Recycles. Recycles. I don't know why we got so quiet. Me neither. That's not really revelatory. Of course I use the recycles.

Of course you do. But that's an example. You can reuse those boxes for all sorts of things. Like what? A diorama for your kid putting a gift in a box that is weirdly shades and wrapping it. Passively breaking Christmas ornaments. Why would I give my kid a contraceptive?

Okay. Do you understand what a diorama is? Yes. She's thinking diaphragm. Thank you. Yeah. I thought she was thinking, taking a box.

Babe. How is that a contraceptive? Oh, is that something you would be, you reuse the recycles for? No, and what is happening? Answer the question, Shep Ghost. Is that to me? Yeah.

Yes, sweetie. Pointed question to you. I'm just so, I'm flabbergasted. And so are we supposed to share all of our natural belongings and be one with each other? I mean, that sounds nice. Yeah, we'd have to share all of our belongings. But if we're done with a belonging, I mean, this is why people have yard sales. You've seen a yard sale, right?

You don't have any problem with someone coming up and saying, oh, I'll take this. Sometimes people have a yard sale and they'll just say free. There's no difference between that. It's like, I owned this. I don't want it anymore. or do you have used for it? Great. Now it can go have another journey.

Make someone else's life great. I think, you know, coming up on my first hour off of the internet in 15 years. This is groundbreaking. And staring at the trees is sort of re, I feel my blood clot passing. Oh, I didn't know you could do that. Yeah, I don't know. Like a stone. I'm going to pee it out.

Oh, dear. I don't know if that's grim. I don't know if that needs to happen here. But yeah, listen, I mean, sometimes we need to recycle ourselves, right? We need a chance to actually be turned around into something else. We need to. Oh. Is it coming up out of your mouth?

I'm going to throw it up. Oh, no. Here. Please, please do it in this bowl. Okay. Well, this is the first here, everybody. We're about to watch a blood clot. I don't think we've ever had somebody throw up a blood clot on the podcast.

I don't have to think about it. I know. Oh, and there it is. So quiet. So demure. Quiet. That's got to feel good. Oh, wow.

I mean, it's disgusting. But how are you doing? I feel incredible. Okay. I bet. It's now a good time to say that people taking the recycling is not that big a deal. Yeah. Okay.

So you're not as concerned with that anymore. No. I don't think I'm concerned with anything. Let me. I don't know about that. Well, leave my kids at ballet. No,

I mean, you don't have to do that. We don't want you to do that. Go get them. Let them learn. How do we get a little bit of the clap back? About the world. Deborah,

I'm going to hand you a spoon. Occupy Wall Street. I'm going to hand you. I'm going to hand you a grapefruit spoon. And just, I just want you to just scoop a little, no, no, Deborah, I just want you to scoop a little bit of clock. My company makes these. These spoons?

Mm-hmm. What company? Wait a minute. You said that you were unemployed and only paid yourself to make boosts. Well, of course, but I also work. Oh, now how are we supposed to infer that? You can't say I'm unemployed, but I also work. You said unemployed.

So I own Amazon. I'm sorry, but we know who owns Amazon. Yes. That's not you. Deborah. never seen you in a headline never heard about you of course not have you been to space of course

okay Deborah it's been great having you on the show this has really been delightful I hope so glad to hear that you didn't seem to be enjoying yourself most of the time no I'm glad the clot loosen things up a little bit I don't think we can really help you any further than we already have which is zero

but we do wish you the best of luck I don't you I hate it when you do that you told you. You said one of your goals this season was to go easier on the guests. You're absolutely right. Okay. Deborah, I'm sorry we couldn't help you. I do wish you the best. Thank you. I would love to take a moment of silence for everyone who is dying right now. Oh.

I don't know that we can do that. No. Now we're in a rush. She's doing it. She's, she's, she's, shepp, ship? Shep. Shep? Is Shep dying right now? Well, I'll all shop right now. Okay. All right. No. Now she's singing the Vanderbump rules. I'm afraid we have to let you go, Deborah. And best of luck to you and to your husband, Corgi. And to your 10 children.

Thank you. All right. I'm going to get right back into my forums. Go pick up that kid. Those kids. Give our regards to the ballet house. You got it. We will return with the neighborhood listen when the neighborhood listen returns.

It's Joe. Liquor, cannabis. Delhi gas station with five electric fast charging stations. station. Okay. Need I say more? You, maybe you didn't hear so good. Liquor, cannabis, deli gas station with five electric fast charging station. All of it. Everything that I said is true. So, you know what to do now. Or don't you? I can't hold your hand through this. Liquor, Cannabis, Deli, gas station with five electric fast charging station. Okay.

Joe. That's how she made you feel, huh? I know. It was a tough guest to remind you of your goal about, but I know that you would be happy if I reminded you because you did set that intention for the season. I appreciate that. But it was a tough ask because she really was difficult. Completely divorced from reality.

Absolutely. Not well. Threw up a blood clung. in my kitchen. I thought, can we talk about that for a minute? There was so much noise in the beginning, and then it just happened completely silently. Like she does it all the time.

I don't even know what to do with it. I poured it out in the yard, hoping maybe it would give nutrients to something. No. For chef. I was hoping. I pray you never see Southern Charm. I pray.

I wish you would stop talking about it. It's going to make me want to look at it because I don't like being out of the conversation. I don't like not knowing what I'm talking about. don't like all these Craig Conover's coming in here. Blaming everyone but themselves for their problems. Why do you watch it if you're warning other people off of it? It just happens.

Oh boy. This whole face got a shadow on it. I don't know why I watch it. It just happens. You don't have to. What if it just happens? I know. You find yourself watching it.

Oh my gosh. Don't. This is just because you've been away from Gabby for a while. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I think you're really, I think this is really taking a toll on you being away from Gabby all this time in the incident. I think that you're right. And then I just need to.

Oh, he's doing a little kid cry. Together. Oh, gosh. Oh, it means it's really bad. There you go. Okay. Sometimes you just need to let that out. I think you've been really playing this downburn.

And I think you're surprised by the toll it's taken on you. I'm stressed. I'm stressed. Of course you are. This is ridiculous. Plus the Falls, He's been on fire for three days. What?

I'm sorry, what? It's not a big deal. What do you mean? The fires contain the pharmacies on fire. Contained. It's not like on a hillside. Part of the pharmacies on fire. It is contained.

It's almost out. What is the problem? We've been allowed to go back in. You're working while there is an active fire. Yes. That seems very unsafe. It's not like getting into the, store where the customers are.

I hope it hasn't damaged the falls. Yeah. No, and the falls were no help by the way. Boy, oh boy. Now listen, ever since the fire department took that sabbatical to write a novel, they have always been grossed up by fire. As I've said before, they would get to a fire and go, ew. Yeah.

And you're still, you're to prompt them to do. Do you live here? You had to prompt them to put the fire up. become really snobby and really just annoyed about it because they think they're authors now. And should, let me ask you this. Should the fire department be wearing sunglasses all the time? Oh, definitely not. Yeah.

Definitely not. Indoor's at night. No. No. And, and so I can understand why perhaps that's going on, but do you know how the fire started? They suggest, they suspect foul play. Fowell play. Yes.

So someone died? No, that it was arson. Okay, but I did, I thought that foul play only referred to murder. No, from the movie. I mean, I just wanted to make sure. I thought I knew what you were saying, but I just- You're right, babe. Very true.

Good cats. I do not believe it refers exclusively to murder. Okay, but why would you just say arson? It's more fun to say that one. Okay, that's what it was about. Just go live a little. Okay, well, you're at a low moment, so I'll let you live. I'll let you say foul play.

Thank you. You should always suspect foul play before you reveal what the foul play is that it's arson. I think in drama logic, you know, you should always... In drama logic, yeah. Yes.

It makes dramaturgical sense. So who do you think started the fireburn? Do they know? Not Billy Joel. Oh my gosh, babe. I know he and accomplices did not start the fire. That's what they claim. Doug, man,

something's happening to you. He really should do a rewrite, by the way. He should do a sequel because God, would he have a lot of shit to do right now. It would be incredible. It'd be the longest song ever. Doug is operating on the principle of first thought, speak thought. Yeah, it's too much. Even you're saying it. Wow, okay. I'm just saying he's kind of got a blanket pass for all fires.

I think we're talking about. I think we're talking about two different things. I don't think Doug meant that him saying things immediately once he thinks them is too much. I think he's talking about that. I sense it. I can't tell which thing you're talking about, babe. I got to get out of here. Here's the thing.

What? What happened? I'm stuck in pirate jail right now. I gave escrow the key. Oh, no. Why do that? He's blind. He's blind.

All the dogs. I know and he swallowed it. The robot dog would have helped you more. Yeah. Oh my gosh. I do feel like you would have had a better chance convincing that animatronic dog. Correct. Yeah, but the animatronic dog can't, you know, come over and give me the key.

Well, neither can escrow. So I will do it. I will come over and give you the key. That's good. Okay. I have one final post and we're going to do this. This is kind of an interesting one. This is really specific.

This is Cheryl and she asks, or she says, rather, looking for a nice, unique, healthy breakfast. slash brunch place for Easter. Party of four for two vegetarians. It's as if she thinks she's making the reservation right now. So this will just happen. Why does she think she needs to let all of the neighbor happen know how many? How many party of four? We don't need to know they're vegetarian.

Well, I guess the vegetarian thing, if you know of a place that is vegetarian friendly, sure. Listen, I know I've talked about white women of a certain age traits and this is really capturing a bunch of them. I mean, she's just saying, this is what I want. Someone do it. And it's very baffling to me. First of all, what does she even mean by, what do we mean by unique, healthy brunch place these days? What are we talking about?

Unique? Unique? What's unique? The restaurant shaped like a boat? Is it one of those places where the waiter comes and squats down next to your table? I've made, I've drawn a line in the sand, by the way. What? What? No more share plates. Oh, no more share plates. I don't care if it's a place that does share a place. Whenever one wants to share, I never have had it. I never get enough.

I'm going to say I'm eating, this is what I'm eating. You guys eat whatever you want. Yes. And I'm not paying for all of it. That's correct. Because they will talk you into too many things. Yes. We're obviously not enough and because you have to share it, you didn't get your own plates, so you didn't get enough food.

I've never had the experience where it's not enough food because the people I'm with, these dumb-dums, they always fall for the waiter talking them into, well, if I were, you know, this party, I would have like six, seven, eight things. Oh, boy. You can always order more. You know the problem? They always enter with you. You can always order more as if they're tricking you into thinking this is not going to be enough.

I think you're going out with like other pharmacists, other men. See when you're out with just like three women, they're just like, well, we'll share it. And then everyone's starving and no one says a thing. Yeah, that's ridiculous. And it's, I'm so sick of having two bites of bass, you know, two bites of bass, a potato and one tortellini.

Two bites of bass. That's not enough for me. It's not. I need all the tortellini or all the bass. Yeah. And that's me. Yeah, yeah. That's just me and my truth.

I'm very excited. to be defiantly said to the waiter. I'm having this one and this one. You should. And you know what? The rest of the table be damned. And you can still get fries for the table. Because that's always fun. You should get fries for the table. When he or she says, when they say, and you know, I would recommend part of the size I get six to eight things.

I'm going to say, no, guys, we're not doing that. I'm going to say right in front of them. Wow. Wow. That is good for you. See, it doesn't have what me. I'm going to say, no, no insult to you. But I know what's going on here. I know you have to say that. You know what you could say? We're not doing that. I love that.

You know what you could add? I love you. Thank you. When they say, Doug, I love you too. Oh, I love you too. Yeah, we're friends. Yeah, it's great. It's great to be friends.

It sure is. Okay. I don't think I have. I think I'm having an hard time. When they say, when they say, have you ever eaten here before and you, because you know it's coming. I know. You could say no, but I know how it works.

Oh, and you know what that's interesting because there's a thing going up. works. There's a thing going around. No, but I've been to a restaurant. There's a thing going around of waiters saying, we do things a little differently here, and that is the worst, right? How differently? No, you don't. That just came to Dignity Falls. Yes, that just hit us. And we're not loving that we do different things differently here. You know what they're saying here in restaurants at Dignity Falls? They're saying, how are fourth bites tasting? Yeah, and they're asking for the tip before you even order.

They say, what are you going to tip me? That's right. That's right. And then they make you shake on it. You're feeling gratuitous? It's really not, it's really not, it's really not a great experience to die now. Wow, so gratuitous. The Joker.

We never have that problem when Doug and I go out because I do all the ordering. I mean, he's coloring the menu. And I, no matter where you are. No matter where you are. I bring crayons just in case. Sure. And I just do it all, you know, so I get what I know he'll eat. Do you say, and the gentleman will have?

The cassidia. And then... No matter where you are. Kids cassidia. I love the surprise. It has to be the kids' cassidia. But they always put a surprise in it. Yeah.

Yeah. Surprise. What? Like Captain Crunch. What? Is this a real thing? And dignity falls it is. Thank you.

You're welcome. Now I understand. Sometimes it's just not at all a cassidia, but they, you know, you can call it that. Sometimes when they tried doing a deconstructed a cassidia. Have you ever seen more... Have you ever seen more surprise at a cassidia? This is a tuna mill. There was that whole period

where they were deconstructing things and they tried to deconstruct a cassidy and it was an absolute mess. They were, you know, because molecular gastronomy was a thing. And then they started doing cellular gastronomy. And it was just disgusting. You had to, first of all,

the food was so small, you had to look at it through a microscope. It's like I don't want to have to look through. Do you eat my whole meal looked through a microscope to cut up my food? Yeah, it was. With a tiny, tiny, tiny, tiny. It was like being a surgeon.

I don't want. that. I don't want that here. Oh, no, I really don't want either. And then there was a cellular gastronomy place that was one of those also like the lights are out, you know? So that was a mess. That was. And they say, okay, so there's a microscope in front of view. You won't be able to see anything.

What are we doing here? Oh, dear. Well, you know what? That's why a lot of times we just eat in or order in. Yeah. And then you know, okay. Because the restaurants here are crazy. I think you should stay with us tonight. I think you should stay here. You're making weird choices vocally, and I'm worried about you. Is that a sign of something?

Weird vocal choices? Yes, it's absolutely a sign. So we're going to get on that. We're going to just make a pizza maybe. Oh, fun. Yeah. Doug loves a bobole. I love it.

You just need the plain. Just plain bobole. Yeah, uncooked. Straight out the fridge. Breakfast. Bobbly. Breakfast bobole. Just that and a spoonful of coffee grounds.
