Starting point is 00:01:09 The Neighborhood Listen is the podcast that explores the neighborhood that we are going to listen about. What is that neighborhood? Why, it's Dignity Falls. And who am I? I'm one of the residents of Dignity Falls. My name is Bert Miapede.
Starting point is 00:01:23 I'm the pharmacist in chief at the Dignity Falls Pacy and with me as always is. I'm fine, I'm fine. I just wanted to get through it. He started by looking up straight up at the ceiling. Joan, I could see the look of concern on your face out of my peripheral vision. I just wanted you to look away so I could get through it.
Starting point is 00:01:42 I did, I looked down. I looked down until the end when I thought maybe I needed to jump in because you needed to take a breath. I was so close to the end. You really did a good job. I just was worried you weren't gonna take a breath. Well now, has that ever happened?
Starting point is 00:01:51 Where I stop breathing. Sometimes. You can talk like this. That happens a lot. You know the one. That's fair, that's fair. That's fair. And I take it back.
Starting point is 00:02:01 I am Joan Pedestrian. Hello. No one's disputing it. I am the top realtor here. Correct. And a local actress. That's correct. We've gone with local actress because amateur actress sounded somehow derogatory and depressing. And I think it plants in people's minds. Well, but I just, it's just an update. Sometimes I think people, if they haven't listened listen listen listen have you ever pronounced the T? Often I do really listening um which is what an actor does you know that acting is mostly listening
Starting point is 00:02:37 mostly what's the rest of it I went for that I went to lean my elbow on the table and missed it when I did that just now good thing acting is mostly leaning yes this is what they say after acting actoring actoring, listening. Why isn't it actoring? I don't know. That actually somehow would, that would be better. You know what? I retract that question because it's not plumbering. I guess that's true.
Starting point is 00:02:54 Um, I, uh, we're off to a terrible start. Oh no, that's not true, Burbs. Delete this Doug. No, no, no. Doug, of course, is our engineer and my husband. He's in a different room in the house. We don't know where he is. He's about to tell us.
Starting point is 00:03:11 Do you want me to tell everyone or do you want to tell us? I can tell everyone. OK, go ahead and tell everyone. Where are you? I'm in my bivouac. Bivouac. Why do you have a bivouac? Now, just for the listeners who might not know, a bivouac. Oh. Bivouac. South side. Why do you have a bivouac? Now, just for the listeners who might not know, a bivouac is?
Starting point is 00:03:28 It's kind of a makeshift shelter. Bivouac. Do do do. Like the Wham song. Yeah. That's a part I can sing. You mean like jitterbug. Jitterbug.
Starting point is 00:03:38 That is. As we know, Byrne can only sing one note and that is a good one. We keep on finding songs you can do. We gotta do that med mentally at some point. Yes, it would just be you going, ba ba ba ram jitterbug. Ba ba ba ba dang dang dang dang dang dang dang dang.
Starting point is 00:03:53 Do host. Whatever the crash test dummies one was. What was it? Oh no, just the mmm. No, but that goes up at some point. No, that goes up at some point. That's why I just said mmm. That's a trap.
Starting point is 00:04:04 That's why I just said mmm. That's a trap. That's why I just said, that's why I just said that. So wait, go back to the bibiwack? Back to the bibiwack. Back to the bibiwack. Did Admiral Ackbar survive? The trap? Yes, I remember him yelling it's a trap, but did he make it out? And he's rolling around on his office desk.
Starting point is 00:04:20 He's got a swimming chair. From office depot. He needed a standing desk. From office people. He needed a standing desk. At least on that spaceship. I don't know how strong his legs were though. He's a lobster man. That's true. Lobster man.
Starting point is 00:04:32 He's like a squid. I think he's a squid. I guess he is more of a squid. Yeah, because of the shape of his head. That head for sure. Yeah, yeah. Now maybe he's half lobster, half squid. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:04:41 It's not for us to say. Maybe he's a squibster. If he didn't, if he did perish in that trap, I hope that on his tombstone, it just says like, I told you so. He realized it a little too late. I don't think he was telling people. I think he was discovering that it was a trap.
Starting point is 00:04:58 I think we are meant to believe he didn't survive, but it is a good question. We don't see the proof. This is not a movie podcast. Anyone can come back from the dead. We manage, it's not a movie podcast. We manage to get to a movie within easily four minutes since starting all the time.
Starting point is 00:05:11 I bet this is not our fastest time either. Oh, I don't think so. I bet. But anyway, Doug, you're in, poor one out for Admiral Ackbar. He's surely dead by now. Definitely. Speaking of Admiral Ackbar.
Starting point is 00:05:23 Okay. It's a tarp. I'm under a tarp. Oh, I see what you did. In the bushes. Fun, scrambling. I'll put that on a pillow for you. I'm in the bushes.
Starting point is 00:05:34 Oh, and a lot of people on Etsy will sell pillows that say it's a trap. There's a huge sector of Star Wars, cute little collectibles that people make on Etsy. I don't doubt that. But you're saying there's a lot of pillows that say it's a trap. I've seen them. I've seen aprons. I've seen hand towels. Cross stitches. Big favorite. OK, back to the bivouac.
Starting point is 00:05:58 I'm keeping my eye on things because some kids egged our front yard. Oh, yeah. They egged our front yard yesterday. At first we thought it was our boys because they do that all the time, but they're living here and it'd be a weird thing for them to do. I think it was maybe one of Jalaiope's suitors or someone. Is there any update on Jalaiope and her mystery prescription? Have you confronted her? First of all, this is in regards to what
Starting point is 00:06:26 Byrne just decided to bring to my attention in the middle of a recording, which was a strange thing to do, because I really didn't have a time to actually react. Well, I remembered. That my daughter showed up with a prescription that I don't know about, and then was it Billy that grabbed it?
Starting point is 00:06:39 Yes, the very tall pharmacist. Yes, and was like, don't worry about it, or something like that. I don't know. Did he do that thing where he holds it above your head? Yes, he held it above my head. I jumped once and then I said, I'm not doing this. Like Tom Hanks did to John Hurd in Big. It's another movie. Don't you remember when they're playing racquetball?
Starting point is 00:06:57 Can I ask a question about this prescription? Yes. Did you happen to see burnt skull and crossbones on the label? Well, that means... Well, now I didn't see the bottle itself. I just... And doctors will not put a skull and crossbones on the slip. They put a big sticker that says, Oh, B08 on it.
Starting point is 00:07:16 That's what they'll do. Something like that. I did not see the contents of the piece of paper. So I have no idea what that prescription was. Could you smell it? Well, here's the... The piece of paper. So I have no idea what that prescription was. Could you smell it? Well, here's the- The piece of paper? Well, here's what-
Starting point is 00:07:29 No, I'm getting what you're saying. Okay, good. I'm picking up what you're putting down. Here's what I have learned, okay? Wait, what did you say? Some pieces of paper- He's picking up what I'm putting down. I will add some pieces of paper, smell good.
Starting point is 00:07:44 Okay. Are you thinking of mime paper. Smell good. Okay. Are you thinking of mimeograph from when you were in grade school? Are you thinking about scratch and sniff stickers? Possibly. Well, who knows what you're thinking about. I used to clean the paper every day when it would get dropped off in the morning. That's what he's reacting to. What's that process? I hate the smell of newspaper print. It's just a fact.
Starting point is 00:08:09 I didn't know that. It's just a fact. It's just a fact. I can't stand it. I'm one of the few people that doesn't mind that everything went online because those newspapers, just the smell of it. When you have kids, you got to use it all the time for crafts and then it gets on your fingers. It's just the worst. They should have solved that a long time ago. They should have absolutely solved that a long time ago. So exactly, we did a lot of paper mache. Great example. Thank you, Doug, for chiming in with that great example.
Starting point is 00:08:32 Perfect chime in. Perfect chime in. No notes on the chime in. It's been a while since we had a perfect chime in. It has been a long time. Let's reset the calendar. It has been zero days time. Let's reset the calendar. It has been zero days since the perfect time. Yeah, so what I would do is I would rinse them
Starting point is 00:08:54 and I would put them in a dry, I actually do a dry rub. Of the newspaper. Of bath salts, but not, you know, this was before bath salts were taken from us and we can't have nice things. Oh, we used to love bath salts, but not, you know, this was before bath salts were taken from us and we can't have nice things. Oh, we used to love bath salts here. We used to have nice things like bath salts.
Starting point is 00:09:12 Oh, boy. And I, so I had like a sea salt lavender scrub and I would just basically, like an iPhone that needed to be dried, would stick it in a big tub of that salt and it would come out smelling good. So I think that's what Doug is referring to when paper smells so good. And it's all that makes sense. Yeah. You know, it doesn't make sense.
Starting point is 00:09:30 Here's what I learned from July. So I did confront her and it was terrible. Uh, and I asked Doug to help me and he just sat there the whole time crying. Not a good, I thought, hold on. No, zero chime in. I thought it'd be a good cop, bad cop situation. And which were you? It's not good cop, sad cop. I was just sort of the sort of the like the Forest Whitaker cop.
Starting point is 00:09:56 What? I just feel like he cries a lot. In which movie are you talking about? He cries in every movie. He does? Hey, you know what? Speaking of Forest Whitaker, speaking ofrest Whitaker, I recently watched all of Andor. We have to reset the Forrest Whitaker calendar.
Starting point is 00:10:10 We do. It's been zero days since the Forrest Whitaker mention. I rewatched, I watched all of Andor, seasons one and two, and then afterwards immediately watched Rogue One. I couldn't tell you who Forrest Whitaker is in that movie. Now wait a minute, you're going to spoil things for me. I haven't seen any of these. Well, Forrest Whitaker is in that movie. What his job is. Now wait a minute, you're gonna steal things from me. I haven't seen any of these, okay?
Starting point is 00:10:27 Well, Forrest Whitaker's in it. Okay, thank you. He is important to the story. Is he playing somebody in like prosthetics or is he just him? He does not have prosthetics. Okay, so why can't you tell who he is? He's like a commander of some sort.
Starting point is 00:10:36 He talks like this. Uh-uh. Yeah. That's not the voice I was expecting. You come here and you try to say to me. Oh dear. And I'm like, what is he mad about? What is he happy about?
Starting point is 00:10:47 I don't know what his whole thing is. Oh no. Did he play a bad guy? Couldn't tell you Joan. Okay. Couldn't tell you. I think he's a good guy. He talks to the good guys the most.
Starting point is 00:10:59 He never talks to the bad guys. Yes, yes. And I've seen Rogue One twice now. Oh, that's not good. That's not good. Seen Endorce season one twice? Boy, I really don't. There's something about him when he comes on screen
Starting point is 00:11:13 with that voice that I just kind of toot out. Oh my gosh. He is important to the story. He is moving things along. Do not know what he does. Wow. Can't remember his name. All right, well, I mean, I just remember
Starting point is 00:11:25 that this is what he sounds like. Is he fighting back tears? Probably. He might be fighting back. Cause that's what Doug sounded a lot like when I was talking to Julyopee. He's like, I don't agree with this. How did this happen? That was the father's idea.
Starting point is 00:11:39 Daddy's little girl. Ha ha ha. Daddy's little girl. How old is Julyopee now? She's now 19. 19? Well, she's an adult girl. He's a little girl. How old is Jalaiya now? She's now 19. 19? Well, she's an adult now. Almost 20. I mean, you know, she's legally an adult.
Starting point is 00:11:50 Fine, I know that, but while she lives under my roof, That's true. You know what I mean? Yes, I do. And so what I found out is, it's good and bad because what I don't like is that she's stealing, in a sense, from people who actually need these pills, but it's not the pills she's after. She's after the capsules. If you can believe it,
Starting point is 00:12:07 she's making jewelry out of them. So she's, she's getting, she's getting capsule medication. She's correct. Yes. And yes, correct. What did you think I was going to say? She's pouring out the insides, right? Yeah. And then putting them back together. You started to stop me. No, no, I was just agreeing with you. I thought I knew where you were headed. I'm sorry I interrupted. And you didn't want to hear my voice.
Starting point is 00:12:28 Oh, that was like this. She's taking the capsules. She's pouring out the contents. And we've talked about this. We've talked about this, that commercial for contact, the cold medication from when we were little. But it was contact without the tea. And they would open up the pill and then all the little beads would fall out. It was fascinating.
Starting point is 00:12:47 She referenced this commercial. She said she's never been able to stop thinking about it. When she heard us do that podcast. Did she see it on YouTube or something? Yes, she looked it up on YouTube. Sometimes as a family, we watch old commercials. Oh, that's fun. It's one of the few things we do as a family. No one will eat at the table here in my kitchen. No one will go on a vacation. And no one will ever go with me to like the downtown Christmas tree lighting every year. But everybody in this house will stop everything
Starting point is 00:13:14 for a fun YouTube compilation. We love the newscaster ones. Absolute news bloopers. Oh, creme de la creme. He's blind, he's gay. You made it like a hockey game. So this is what happens. So she's making earrings out of the two sides of the. Correct me, I said, well, what in the world
Starting point is 00:13:37 are you doing with all of the powder, I suppose, you know? And she said, she lifted up a Ziploc bag and it was gigantic bursting at the seams When I said wait, are they all mixed together? And she said well, yes cuz I got a couple of she's gotten more pills than just The one prescription so it's a medication suicide probably literally. I'm sorry. What a medication suicide. What do you mean? Oh like oh Yes, yes, yes got it got it. Yes, and what this is what didn't help on top of everything, is that the boys. Then we'll get to what did help.
Starting point is 00:14:10 Nothing. I don't. I haven't. OK, can you offer anything? Because my house is a mess right now. Well, I guess the only thing that did help was a YouTube compilation. We sat down and we want to YouTube compilation of that guy who tried to do his own commercial for mobile homes and just fell apart basically after an hour. You know what I'm talking about?
Starting point is 00:14:26 Oh, he keeps screaming? Yeah. Everyone needs to shut up, including me? That ex, correct, correct. Is that Winnebago man? Winnebago man, yeah. Yes, Winnebago man. That is the only thing that helps.
Starting point is 00:14:37 Because while this- I heard he's in Thunderbolts. Really? Really? Oh, what a get. Dejoys Thunderbolts. It's for the post-credits scene. Really? Oh, what a get. Dejoin the rules. It's for that post credit scene. Nick Fury. I'm such a big old man.
Starting point is 00:14:53 So while this was happening in July B's room, the boys were filming. And you know why? Cause they're making, so again, are my boys, my twin boys who are living here. I'm talking about Matt and- Cha Cha Real Smooth. And Cha Cha Real Smooth.
Starting point is 00:15:04 Matt and Cha Cha Real Smooth are, they're making this pilot for me, which by the way, they did a focus rooms, which we built in our house on one scene. It was the new scene that I did against my will of Mr. Doubtfire, which they have written for me, gender bending, you know, and I still think is very problematic and they are in rewrites. And what they decided to do is they're doing a documentary while they're making this. And I'm like, you guys, you can't, first of all, they want to do everything. They abandoned one shot. They did abandon one shot, an hour long one shot episode, mostly because they wanted to do the documentary.
Starting point is 00:15:38 And what they're also doing is a podcast. You know how like basically you watch a television show and then there's also a documentary and then you can, after you watch the whole thing, you can watch 20 more minutes of those people talking about what you just saw. And so I love it. It's the best. It's the best. When you've watched an episode and you've seen what happens and then you see the actor say, and then my character did this because he thought this and why they made a choice. Why they made a choice of a blue coat. If you're lucky. If you're lucky.
Starting point is 00:16:07 But mostly it's just them recapping it as if it happened to them. Pretty much. Pretty much. So they're doing that too. And I said, boys, you don't even have a show yet. You haven't even sold it yet. You're already doing your pockets. They say, we have it.
Starting point is 00:16:18 This is how you package a show now, mom. And that's what they said. They're like, mom. And especially Cha Cha. Cha Cha. I just call him Cha-Cha for short. Sure. So they decided to get, you know,
Starting point is 00:16:29 they're filming everything. And I'm like, but that's also not how it worked. Just film the process. But they came into film when Doug was crying in front of Jalape, and it was terrible. I don't like that. I don't like hearing that. I didn't like it either.
Starting point is 00:16:41 How did Jalape react? Well, she was really happy about being filmed. Apple doesn't fall far from the tree. Well, because she was like, yeah, let's do they ended up just basically filming a commercial for her earrings. So I don't know what she's going to do with it. But I said I have to come up with some sort of punishment and you can't be taking away the materials used to make pills, you know, when really someone needs them, you know,
Starting point is 00:17:02 at least put them in separate bags and put them in separate bags. Because now I don't know what to do with this very hazardous Ziploc bag. I would throw it away. It has disappeared. Oh dear. That's, that's bad news. And Doug, how did you react to this filming? Oh, I mean, I was trying to wipe away tears, but they already got me and I think they're going to put it out of context. You know, I'm sure they're going to put it out of context. You know? That's what I'm worried about. I'm sure they're going to put it out of context. They're gonna put it out of context. If there's anything you can guarantee, it will be put out of context.
Starting point is 00:17:28 Are you worried you're gonna become a GIF? Oh, the fate worse than death. No wait, I feel like we haven't talked about the bivouac at all and about the eggs. We truly haven't talked about the bivouac and the eggs at all. Speaking of the fate worse than death, getting egged is the worst.
Starting point is 00:17:44 So what is your plan, babe? Oh, you got to get it out of the grass. Well, I'm just, I'm waiting for them to come back. And you know, there's all these tennis balls that have been lost over the years in the bivouac. And so I'm armed. But the bivouac has been, how long has the bivouac been there? It's been here for years.
Starting point is 00:18:01 I can't even remember when it would start. It was just, it's a big bush out in the front. I like to go in there, look for tennis balls, look for lizards and things. No, look for lizards. Oh Doug, you know how we've discussed that we're on our walks, you know, he runs after them, scurries after them.
Starting point is 00:18:17 And then he comes back and he brings me sticks and pockets and sorry, stones to put in my pockets. Absolutely. But it's become kind of a pattern to run into the bivouac and I'll stay there for a bit. Sometimes if I'm feeling moody, I'll just be in here. Oh sure. I feel safe.
Starting point is 00:18:34 Some bivouac time. Yeah. And so the bivouac is a big bush and a tarp. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. And is a ghillie suit involved in this at all? No, no, no, no.
Starting point is 00:18:44 It's a good idea though. Yeah, I mean, why go all the way to Gilly Park when you can sit your own bit away? Gilly Park, which is of course like our nude beach of Dignity Falls, but everyone can just proudly wear their ghillie suit without shame. Yeah. If you're stumbling-
Starting point is 00:18:57 It's not a gilly park. Not a gilly suit. It's not a gilly suit. It's not a gilly park. The worst suit you could have. If you stumble upon that park, it is very unnerving. It is, because you think you're going crazy. Because you think all the bushes are moving.
Starting point is 00:19:11 Yeah, somebody gets up to leave and you're like, oh my God. But yeah, I'm just waiting with my tennis balls. So you're going to fire tennis balls at them? Absolutely, I got my slingshot. That's fair, I mean, because it's not lethal, unless you have a tennis ball machine that you're going to fire tennis balls at them? Absolutely. I got my slingshot. That's fair. I mean, because it's not lethal unless you have a tennis ball machine that you're using. No. Okay.
Starting point is 00:19:31 Just your own arm. My own arm. And you're going to throw them at the people who come to throw eggs at the house? Is that what your plan is? Yeah. Well, first I got to see who it is. Yeah. Well, yeah.
Starting point is 00:19:40 Did you look at our ring light in our ring camera? Did you check? Oh. You have to name- He just went straight for the bivouac plan. Here's what you have to do. You have to name, blame and shame. No, no, no, no.
Starting point is 00:19:48 We don't do that. We don't shame on this podcast, Burt. You know that. You can shame egg people. Oh. Remember the rigid finger of blame? I'm happy to point it at them. Oh boy.
Starting point is 00:19:57 Burt, the Doug's always talking about the rigid finger of blame. I forgot about the rigid finger of blame. I did forget about it too. That's on me. That's on us. Now it's pointing at you. But I'm going to point the finger at you now,
Starting point is 00:20:08 and ask you how things are going with you, because we haven't caught up with you. Everything's okay. You were celebrating the invention of the pill last time. That's right. We had our big. That was exhausting. And you were exhausted.
Starting point is 00:20:19 Because I had to make. Like you literally couldn't even talk. It was very strange. That episode was weird, by the way. I know, and I apologize to the listeners. You got dark. I know I wasn't myself. Your eyes were closed most of the entire hour.
Starting point is 00:20:31 I know, I just couldn't keep them open and I had to make the face of the straw man that we lit on fire. So it's all over? It's all over. Well, how did it go? It went great. People really raved about it.
Starting point is 00:20:42 We got a good review in the paper. I saw that. Mitch McNutt reviewed it. Mitch McNutt reviewed it. Mitch McNutt reviewed it and said, of all the things I've hated seeing, I hated this one the least, which from him is a rave. High praise. It really is. Also, I don't know why he's reviewing it.
Starting point is 00:20:55 Why is he reviewing it? It's not a theater event. Oh, God. It's more of a pagan celebration. Mitch McNutt, of course, my critic, theater nemesis. Oh, I hate him. What a piece of shit. I really despise him. Nothing gets burnt going more than Mitch McNutt. He's just the idea of him, he disgusts me. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:10 In his stupid voice. On those turtlenecks. Okay, so people loved it, and you, what was the recovery period for you? What was your highlight? Let's do highlight. Honestly, when it was all completed, I got a second win
Starting point is 00:21:25 like you wouldn't believe. Really? As soon as I put the finishing touches, the last eyelash on the straw man's face. The gigantic straw man that you then everyone burned, right? That's right. Okay. Which seems like a waste.
Starting point is 00:21:37 But I stood back and I looked at it and then I just felt a euphoria. Wow. And not like the TV show. Really? Yes. I'm going to need you to elaborate.
Starting point is 00:21:50 Well I felt like I had glitter on my face. I felt like I'd done a bunch of drugs. Under the worst overhead lighting possible. Yes. I felt like I was very willfully depressing. And did you ride your bike around just looking upwards at the heavens and just like. Yes, and this is what life is all about.
Starting point is 00:22:10 It's about blackmailing your friend's dad and riding your bike around town. That's all it's about, that's what being young is. It's about putting on a play. Yes. Based on the lives of the people. That has a shocking amount of crew support. Absolutely, a huge budget.
Starting point is 00:22:25 When did they rehearse that? Yeah, yeah, yeah. And the teachers don't question it for a second. I haven't even seen a teacher in that single, in an entire episode. Somehow you keep a tight lid on it so that the people are surprised when they see the show and say, this is about us.
Starting point is 00:22:39 Well, that's great. I think that's wonderful. I will say that there's still a smoke sitting over our city because of that fire. So we don't even know when it's going to go away. The one downside was I did climb into the head of the wicker man right before they lit it on fire. You weren't supposed to call the wicker man. I'm sorry. We don't want to get in trouble. And I did climb into it before they lit it
Starting point is 00:23:03 on fire. Why? Why would you do that? I just, I just- Because you were trying to sleep. This is when you were still in your bad state. No, this was the state of euphoria. What? And I said, I need to be in there and I need to see it.
Starting point is 00:23:17 I need to see the city. I need to see the flames. This is disturbing. And then, you know who got me out of there was Gabby. Well, of course, because she's a smoke jumper. She jumped from a helicopter onto the head. Wow. Climbed in there like she tore the straw apart. Oh that's amazing. And she came in there and said, Berndt what are we going to do with you? Then she scooped me up. She's very strong. Yes, she is. And she picked up, I just let my body go limp. And she, she lifted me out of the hair and then we parachuted. Just true lifestyle. Lifted you back up with the helicopter.
Starting point is 00:23:51 That's right. The straw man was the limo. A little bit of an accent. She said, what are we going to do with you? And then we, we parachuted. Did you say choppa? I tried to, but I couldn't. I was too weak. And then we parachuted out of there and you know, we had a helicopter. So then why did you, why did the helicopter stick around? That's what I meant by true. Because those things are very expensive to rent. I thought maybe she had a buddy that like, you know, she said, she said, she tried to bargain with the guy. And then she eventually just said, just get me there and I'll take care of the rest of it. Wow.
Starting point is 00:24:26 I mean, I have a lot more follow up questions, but we might not have time, but you guys have a very interesting relationship. If she can just do something like that. And the, and the response is just, what am I going to do with you? Like it's an everyday occurrence to rescue you from the maw of a burning straw man. Yeah. I guess we just have a, we just kind of really understand each other. That's that, hey, that's absolutely true.
Starting point is 00:24:49 She's a very chill person, as you know. She is, the last time we hung out, she really harped on me and Doug getting therapy and I didn't really appreciate it. She kind of really dug in on it. I will get why from your perspective, you didn't appreciate that. Okay, thank you for that.
Starting point is 00:25:03 And that's all I'll say. Okay. I don't like that. Okay, thank you for that. And that's all I'll say. Okay. I don't like that. Doug, how long have we been recording? He's gotta get out of the bushes, give him a second. That's true. You gotta give away my position. Oh my gosh.
Starting point is 00:25:15 It's broad daylight, no one's gonna come do it right now, babe. I think people just look for the top. What are you doing exactly? 24. Someone's gonna call the cops on us, that's what's gonna happen. Oh, 24. 24. All right, I think that's the perfect time to take on us. That's what's going to happen. Oh, 24.
Starting point is 00:25:26 24. All right. I think that's the perfect time to take a break. Yes, we should take a break. And when we return, we'll have a guest right here on the Neighborhood Listen. Hi, it's Paul. And I want to tell you about Huell.

Starting point is 00:29:01 And Joan, we have a guest with us. As we do every week, we search the NeighborHap, the social networking application for neighborhoods. And we look for interesting people in our neighborhoods to talk to. Maybe amplify a message, maybe ask some follow-up questions for confusing posts. It's just that simple.
Starting point is 00:29:19 And if you see a post that maybe we've forgotten or overlooked, why don't you screenshot it and send it to us at burtandjohn at gmail.com. And this came from a listener named Matt Moore. Thank you, Matt, for the submission. And this is in the in search of section and someone named Pam writes,
Starting point is 00:29:36 I know this might be controversial. And then a fun little emoji of like the, I think it's like the blushing one, like a smiling and blushing. Oh, let's see. Can I see it? With the little rosy cheeks. Is that where they have rosacea? It's not rosacea, babe.
Starting point is 00:29:48 I never thought of it that way. I think it's just rosacea. And to be honest, I never zoomed in enough to see that. They have rosacea and they're saying, I'm fine. I'm not ashamed. I think we're reading way too much into that emoji. Pam goes on to say, but recently a friend served me pimento cheese dip from a local store slash deli and could not remember where it came from.
Starting point is 00:30:10 Where is the best pre-made pimento cheese to serve with crackers? It had shreds of cheese in it. Not smooth. T-I-A exclamation mark that of course stands for as far as I know, thanks in advance. Here to tell us more about this intriguing post is Pam. Pam, welcome to the Neighborhood Listen. Thank you, thank you so much for having me. Hi Pam.
Starting point is 00:30:33 Well, it's actually Pam. Oh, sorry. It is. Okay. It was Pam, I'm non-binary. Oh, okay. This might be controversial, but I couldn't figure out how to legally change my name.
Starting point is 00:30:45 So I just changed the way people say it. That makes sense. Yeah. Well, having not done it. Oh, go ahead, Burns. Yeah. Well, I was going to ask, you know, you have the little marks that you put over vowels to tell you if they're long or short vowels.
Starting point is 00:30:57 Oh yeah. So palm, would that be? Well, you could just basically- PAME would be like the line. Yeah. Well, all I'm thinking of now is that pomegranate drink, POM. You know? That's P-O-M.
Starting point is 00:31:08 Right. Oh, yes, this is P-A-M. That is P-O-M, like pomegranate. But why could you change it to P-O-M? Well, I would change it to something else if I could figure out how to change it. Oh, you said you had a hard time. Okay, yes, that is my next question. They couldn't figure out how to change it.
Starting point is 00:31:20 They couldn't figure out how to change it. So why is it so hard? I actually have never tried it. Why is it so hard? Well, no one will tell me what store to go to. You mean to change it. They couldn't figure out how to change it. So why, why is it so hard? I actually never tried. Oh, well, no one will tell me what store to go to. You mean to change your name? Yeah. Oh, I'm not sure that it's a store you would go to. I would assume you go downtown. Are you asking people what store do I go to to change my name? Oh yeah. Okay. That might be the problem. Yeah. I think that's a problem. I think definitely you want to go to a store for the permit to put, wow, That's hard to say the pimento cheese. Okay. And do you know which store? Oh, well, um, it had shreds in it. Oh, shreds. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:49 It had actual shreds. It wasn't smooth. Oh, right. It wasn't smooth. You were very clear about that. It was not smooth. And that's how you prefer your pimento dip with shreds. Well, this is the first time I ever tried it. Oh, it knocked my socks off. Yeah. My friend did Dean brought it. She did not remember. I love the Dean. Yeah. Well friend, Dedeen brought it. She could not remember. I love Dedeen. Yeah. Well, you know, Dedeen. Well, I just love the name and I feel like I would love Dedeen. Dedeen couldn't narrow down any supermarket or deli or... There was no label of any kind that was on it that would maybe sort of... No, it was, it was just in a little plastic tub. But yeah, exactly. You're familiar. That voice was my husband. He's outside recording. Yeah, exactly. You're familiar. That voice was my husband. He's outside recording. That was Doug.
Starting point is 00:32:30 Thank you Doug. I was searching for the word. So this wasn't like from Trader Joe. Of course we don't have Trader Joe's. We do have Trader Joe and they do have like, you know, the silly Trader Giotto's or Trano Mike's or whatever, you know, specific country. They have a pimento cheese called Holda Pimento and it's just olives. It's just pitted olives. And that is an interesting point you bring up
Starting point is 00:32:51 because there were no olives in this. Okay, good to know. Okay. That will help us narrow it down. Not even chunks of olives, it was just like a flavor. And I don't know what's usually in a pimento spread, but this one was really unique and great. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:33:03 It had chunks of shredded cheese, actual chunks. Not smooth. Not smooth. OK, not smooth. And did I mention the cheese? Yes, I think so. Yes, and then the pimentos, which normally you're used to inside of an olive. Yes, I am.
Starting point is 00:33:17 Definitely. No olive inside. No olive, and sorry. Visually or flavor-wise. I'm trying to wrap my head around this dip. Yes pimento or no to pimento being in there? Yes, pimento. Yes, pimento.
Starting point is 00:33:28 But no olives. But pimento whole pimentos or shredded? No, the cheese was shredded. The pimentos. Got it, the pimentos are whole. I think. Do you know what pimento cheese is? The more you guys are saying pimentos,
Starting point is 00:33:40 the more I'm fogging up. Well, now I am. Maybe I am. Fogging up. What are you talking about, baby? Get out from that bush. Well, now I am. Fogging up. What are you talking about? Get out from that bush. It's hot out there. You're in a greenhouse.
Starting point is 00:33:51 There is a heat advisory today. Suffocating yourself. I'm sorry. Maybe I didn't. I'm thinking of the little red pimento. Like I'm thinking of a green olive with a little red thing stuffed in it. Right.
Starting point is 00:34:01 Take that red thing out. Yeah. Take that red thing out. Now put it in a dip. That's exactly what I'm talking about. Just want to make sure that they are not chopped up. Is that mayo? I think so. That's the smooth part, mayo. Are you sure? Is that always? Tom is looking at me with an expression I cannot divine.
Starting point is 00:34:16 The real like, would that be good or bad? That's a huge tip. That's a huge tip. It's a clue. Should I look up what's in it? I think you should. I think it's best. Now, was this, what event was this? Was this a party?
Starting point is 00:34:30 Was this brought to your house? Did you go to Dede's house? Was this a one-on-one with Dede? Yeah, or was this a big potluck situation? No, it was like an intimate, we, Dedeen wanted to teach a group of us how to play Magic the Gathering. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:34:43 Yeah. So there were four of us and... group of us how to play Magic the Gathering. Oh, okay. Yeah. So there were four of us and... Four of us, can you say who else was with you? Oh, who else was with us? Yeah. Yes, it was, well, I was one of them. Right, so there's two other people. Tom, Nadine, Curly.
Starting point is 00:34:58 Okay, fun. What's Curly's deal? Well, we're the four non-binary people in town. Oh, you're sure? Only four of you? Wow, I thought we had a little more diversity in that area. You don't remember when we did that? Everyone had to gather in town. It was in person and people just raised their hands. It felt like the Hunger Games. I didn't like it. I didn't like it. I didn't care for it.
Starting point is 00:35:27 It was sinister. It was like, what's going to happen now? Why is it sinister? Why are we making people raise their hands? They got to the day, four people raised their hands, and then they just packed up and went home. And that was it. I was like, oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:35:37 I certainly hope you're not feeling isolated in this community because- No, we found each other. Okay, so Tom. He's a Curly. Dedeen, Curly. And Beanie. Beanie! But I would like to know about Curly and Bee. Well, so, Tom, Dedeen, Curly. And Beanie. Beanie!
Starting point is 00:35:46 But I would like to know about Curly and Bee. Well, I'd like to know about all three of them and what they do. How are you all friends? And, Tom, of course we'd like to know all about you as well. Yes, that's true. Of course we do. Well, we're all friends from that town hall
Starting point is 00:35:59 census meeting. We raised our hands. We actually didn't go home, but we did walk away and say, hey, I think we've got something in common. Yeah. Okay. And you know, this might be controversial. Some people think you shouldn't just be friends
Starting point is 00:36:13 based on being non-binary, but honestly, it is a bonding factor. I was gonna say, is it controversial? I just feel like that's sort of, who's bothering to call that controversial? Palm did smile and there was a little color in their cheeks. Oh. Oh yeah. Oh, like that, oh, he's thinking,
Starting point is 00:36:31 because that's the emoji. I think that's what happened with the word controversial. Am I using that word wrong? Sometimes I think maybe. I don't know. Oh, that's what the blushing is about. I can't answer that since I don't know what pimento loaf is.
Starting point is 00:36:41 Not loaf, not loaf, dip. Is there a loaf? Could you look it up please? Is there a loaf? There is a pimento loaf is not loaf not loaf dip I'll do what? Let's see here extra sharp cheddar cheese, okay shreds of it. Freshly grated. Yeah. Freshly grated. Yeah. Shreds. Cream cheese. Uh-huh. Cream cheese. Cream cheese. Wow.
Starting point is 00:37:09 Twist. That's what it is. Pimento peppers. Pimento peppers. Mayonnaise. Oh, it was. You're right, Bryn. Good job. Dukes is traditional, but I also like Sir Kensington's. Sir Kensington's? Oh, I like Sir Kensington's too. I also like Sir Kensington's. Sir Kensington's. Oh, I like Sir Kensington's too.
Starting point is 00:37:24 Listen, let me say, it is what, it's more expensive. This mayonnaise is up its own ass for sure, but it is so good. There is such a specific nice taste to it, but it's at all the sort of like hoity-toity, you know, natural food stores. Joe always rolls her eyes at Sir Kensington when she buys it.
Starting point is 00:37:42 I roll my eyes while eating it. I love it. And I'm also rolling my eyes. My favorite mayo is the egg yolk kid. And then the cowboy mascot on the label. Yes. Just for the mascot, not the flavor. Yeah, it's kind of disgusting, but the mascot is great. He's riddled with bullet holes, though.
Starting point is 00:38:00 For an egg, that's an amazing feat to still be walking around and drilling your six guns. So we also got garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, jalapeno pepper, ribs and seeds removed. I didn't know jalapenos had ribs. You take the ribs out of the jalapeno peppers. And black pepper to taste and salt. This sounds wrong. Oh, it doesn't sound like what you tasted?
Starting point is 00:38:24 Really? Also, I wasn't sound like what you tasted? Really? Also, I wasn't asking for a recipe. I was asking for a store. Wow. Okay, pump. But I mean, you could just cut out the store and just make what he just said because that might be good, right?
Starting point is 00:38:34 No, I want to buy it. I want to buy this pre-made one. Not everything has to be Teach Amanda Fish. You know what I mean? I understand. We have stores for a reason. I understand. And I didn't, I mean, listen.
Starting point is 00:38:47 We are listening. It was not smooth and I- Oh, okay, that's been established. Oh yeah, we'll get that part. And like, I loved that, you know, and it felt like shreds more than grated. Just felt like subtly different than this. By the way-
Starting point is 00:38:59 I didn't detect any ribs. Yeah, the ribs part threw me for a loop. I don't know that I've ever encountered a smooth pimento cheese. Yeah, I'm not sure either, but I'm now realizing now that I've heard it, I don't really think I've ever had this dip for cheese. Oh, it's very good. Yeah, I don't think I have. Very good.
Starting point is 00:39:15 Yeah, I never had it before. And people, when I ask what store is it from, they keep telling me it sounds like a totally standard pimento cheese spread that I'm describing. Like no matter what one you buy, people think it's gonna taste the same. Yeah, but that's not true. I agree with you. There is an ideal version of anything you have
Starting point is 00:39:31 and I've had it and Dedeen's, I wish Dedeen could remember. I mean, have you been to the Fisherman's Wharf in San Francisco? Sure, absolutely. They've got a million chowders in Red Bull. They sure do, they sure do. And you know that there's only one that's maybe gonna be
Starting point is 00:39:46 like, this is what I think this should taste like. And this actually hit all those. No. That's true. Now, let me ask you, because Curly and Beanie were also there, do they have any memory of this cheese? Well, Dedeen bought it. So did everyone take it?
Starting point is 00:40:01 No, I know Dedeen bought it. But so they have not been any help. Curly and beanie. Did they care as much about it as you did? Great question, Joan. Thank you. I was a bigger fan of the pimento cheese. I just thought it was the perfect pairing. Even more so than Dedeen? Oh yeah, what was the pairing? What crackers did you eat it with?
Starting point is 00:40:19 Oh, okay. Did you have the better than buckwheat brand? Oh, wow! I had what? Boy, that's interesting. I don't think I've even than buckwheat. Oh wow. What? Boy that's interesting. I don't think you've even had buckwheat crackers. Oh they have this Zatar olive cracker.
Starting point is 00:40:32 I've had can you believe it. Oh that sounds good. It's very good. I'm so sorry, Pom. What's that thing? I was gonna say I've had, can you believe it's not buckwheat crackers. I've never had better than buckwheat.
Starting point is 00:40:44 We went back to that. That was a close one. Where can you believe it's not buckwheat crackers? I've never had better than buckwheat. We went back to that. That was a close one. Where did you have it, babe? Cause I certainly didn't buy it. Oh, I eat them in the store. Oh, I see. I see. These ones, these ones, these ones are better than buckwheat,
Starting point is 00:40:57 but they are made with buckwheat. It sounds like the ones you had are not buckwheat. You know, what I'm thinking here is he's talking about the samples that he always has. Do you remember the episode we did? I hope so. You're talking about samples, right? Not eating a whole box in the store.
Starting point is 00:41:09 I sure hope not. Because that's bleeped out. Although he has done that before when he circles around. He's gotten into the skies. He's grabbed a kid just to sort of like look like he's a different person to get another sample. They sell cracker singles. It's kind of like the hot chip challenge.
Starting point is 00:41:24 But this one is like- I'm sorry, what It's kind of like the hot chip challenge, but this one is like- I'm sorry, what? How is it like the hot chip challenge? Because you're supposed to- Just that it's a single cracker? No, it's supposed to be- it's so much like buckwheat, but it's not. Okay. Oh, are you talking about- okay, so like I have seen this, they're trying to push Pringle
Starting point is 00:41:40 singles where it's literally just a flat- the can is literally just as the size of one Pringle and you pop it open. It's just one. And they say once you pop, that's it. I don't think it's catching on. So much packaging. It's bigger than the regular tube of Pringles. I will say I do. that is what I do. I am the person who packages the single Pringle. What?
Starting point is 00:42:08 Really? This is a coincidence? So, How long have you been doing that? Well, it hasn't been happening long. It hasn't been that long. It hasn't been happening long. But where you have, you've been doing R and D for a while.
Starting point is 00:42:17 You've been like working on it. How long have you had a prototype going? Right. I pitched this. Wouldn't the prototype be the Pringles can? No, you would think so. But the Pringles can is too big. I had to take a single Pringle and I had to make a prototype of what it would come. It is fun to say single Pringle.
Starting point is 00:42:35 It is fun to say single Pringle. Was this your idea? Did you pitch this? I dreamt it. Oh, that's fun. I had a dream. Yep. I had a dream. Do you program yourself to have these creative dreams? What? Wait, I's fun. I had a dream. Yep. I had a dream. And it was so fresh. Do you program yourself to have these creative dreams? What? Wait.
Starting point is 00:42:48 I missed it. What did they say? I do program myself to have these creative dreams. Wait, but before this. Um, I, uh. Bert, I missed it. I do program myself. Tom suddenly looked at me with such interest.
Starting point is 00:43:01 Oh, that's what happened. I was thrown. Ha ha ha ha. Ha ha ha ha. Like, perked up like I've never seen anyone perked up before. Well, I'm glad you asked about programming myself. I've done a lot of programming myself and deprogramming myself. Well, a lot of the world tells you you're supposed to be. You gotta undo all that.
Starting point is 00:43:26 Right, that's true. Tear it down, take it out, just come out. And then I thought, well, I've deprogrammed. Now let's get to some programming. Okay, and what is your job title? Do you work at a place that is like, it's a food company or? It's my garage. Oh, oh.
Starting point is 00:43:42 Yeah, it's my garage. The single Pringle. You've just done this independently. Pringles doesn't know doesn't know I see what I'm doing it. It's sort of only happening. What was other job title? Okay, and you said I work in my garage. Yeah Self-employ. That's right. Self-employed. That's right. That's the official answer. A self-starter.
Starting point is 00:44:09 Yeah. Okay. Did you come up with this idea and then sell it to the stores? Well, they don't know I put them there. Wow. So this makes sense that it's spelled P-R-E-E-N-G-L-E-S on the pan. Pringles. Single pringles.
Starting point is 00:44:22 Single pringles. I also had to spell single that way. C-E-E-N. C-E-E-N. C-E-N-G-L-E. Pringles! Single pringles! I also had to spell single that way. C-E-N. C-E-N. C-E-N-G-L-E. Single pringles. So you sneak in there and you plant them around there. Which is also part of the issue because I've been begging these places to give me a sample
Starting point is 00:44:42 of their pimento cheese spread. I see. Right. You know, I'm already not on great terms. You're probably imagining, I bet you were imagining that like that, your Pringle would make the perfect pairing for, did you eat it with a single Pringle? Did you use one of your single Pringles to try out that? Thank you for asking.
Starting point is 00:44:56 Yes, I did. Great. Well, this makes a lot of sense because this is like the perfect marriage. It was the better than buckwheat crackers and one of my single Pringles. And it was, it was a perfect marriage. It was an inspiration. I beep booped my program. I said, we're going to we're going to get there.
Starting point is 00:45:11 We're going to get up there. I have an idea for a single pimento spread. Oh, well, like just enough for the single Pringle. OK, just a single serving. But I have to find it. And ideally, does it cover the surface of the single pringle? Yeah, that was my question.
Starting point is 00:45:27 Thank you, Joey. Yeah. No. For validating my question. See, you're welcome. No, that's too much. That's too much. Okay, so how much ideally?
Starting point is 00:45:34 Is it a dollop? Yeah, I would say precisely a dollop. Okay. Yeah. Okay, one dollop. Which probably a teaspoon. So you could call them dollop dips. You could call them dollop dips.
Starting point is 00:45:42 You get a single pringle and dollop dips. Oh, that's a great name. You can take them dollar dips. You could call them dollar dips. You get a single pringle and dollar dips. Oh, that's, that's a great, that's a great name. You can take it. That's fine. But here's my question. I think it's fine. No, you can use that. We have no use for it. No use for it whatsoever. But my question is.
Starting point is 00:45:56 You're not gonna come after me? No, not at all. Not at all. Okay. Because I'm not sure it's gonna take off. I mean, I'm not making a lot of money from the single Pringles. Are you making any money? I sneak them into the stores.
Starting point is 00:46:09 It's been a lot harder to figure out. Has anyone bought them? The stores don't sell them. Have you tried to sell them individually to people? Have you sort of done a door to door situation? Yeah, a little stand. When people come over, I offer them one. I've sort of taken the, I hate to
Starting point is 00:46:27 say this might be controversial, but the drug dealer approach. Oh, walk us through that. Oh, I'm getting closer. Okay, good to know. Okay. Drug dealers are controversial. Okay. Wait, let me write that down. Oh, okay. They brought a notebook. Okay. Okay. Yeah. So, you know, I'm giving a free sample to hook my customer. Oh, sure. First one free. Hoping that they demand more. They must just snap. Like if you have a single pringle, I bet in about 10 minutes you just snap psychologically. Oh. Cause you just need, you need another.
Starting point is 00:47:11 Well that, yes that is true. I think it takes a full 10 minutes to, Thank you. For the mind to. Yeah, to fully implode. And that's the idea. And before you know it, you're in a high school play. That's all about the people in the audience.
Starting point is 00:47:22 And you're riding your bike, thinking about life and bribing someone's dad. You're right. This is very controversial. Sorry. I knew that was wrong. Anyways, someone on that show was controversial as well. Well, yeah. I mean, no one knows about it yet in the series, do they? That all went down? Oh, I can't remember.
Starting point is 00:47:48 I just remember the great vibe of the show. It just left me feeling so sunny. So positive. Yeah. Really good about life. And super good about having teenagers. Absolutely. Okay, I have a question.
Starting point is 00:47:58 I wanna like go back, and here's the problem. I have a question. I'm not gonna have all the information that I want to have in this question, but it's to Doug, and it's because we had this episode, if you remember, burnt where he was shopping the entire time in our beloved, that local deli, but I can't remember the name of it, which is weird because I live here. Um, because it's like it had it as a long title. Um,
Starting point is 00:48:19 this might not even be worth it, but it sounds exactly like the kind of deli where you would find this specific. Because it's very- I wish we could remember. I know we can remember. Extremely specific and long name. It has a specifically long name. And we just might have to get back to you on that.
Starting point is 00:48:34 Yeah. But there might be a listener screaming the name. Although probably not. Now, Palm, how did you get into inventing? That's a good question. Oh, that is a really good question. Pom, how did you get into inventing? That's a good question. Oh, that is a really good question. So part of my programming is that I do- This is your new program.
Starting point is 00:48:54 This is my new programming. I do, I use a hypnotherapy app. Oh, great. Okay. Okay. Yeah. I never thought to look for one, but I suppose it makes sense that there would be one out there. Oh, great. Okay. Okay. Yeah. I never thought to look for one, but I suppose it makes sense that there would be one. Oh, sure. It's a lot like, you know, like the, the call maps were like, Liam Neeson is talking you to sleep.
Starting point is 00:49:11 You know, it's like those Michael Fassbender is like talking to you. This is a real thing. Yeah. You didn't know this? No. Yeah. There's celebrities that will just sort of talk to you. They brought a truckload of money to these guys' doors. Yes. Yeah. I have Michael Cain. Oh, now that's nice. I feel like he would keep me awake. He's giving you hypnotherapy, do you think? You're very tired.
Starting point is 00:49:32 Oh, he's more frail than that now, Bert. No, he just doesn't have that much energy. Yes, it's much more like that now. Yes, it is much more like that. I just wanna watch the world burn. That's right. Yeah. He just does that speech over and over again.
Starting point is 00:49:43 He's like, I'm not a joker. And he says love does that speech over and over again. He's like, no love. And he says love a lot. Michael Caine. Michael Caine. Very good. Just say his name. That's the key. Michael Caine.
Starting point is 00:49:51 Michael Caine. Michael Caine. That's how you get the impression. Find yourself somewhere comfortable. And close your eyes. And that's how it starts? Yeah, and that's how it starts. And how long is the, how long will you listen to it?
Starting point is 00:50:04 Focus on your breath and then out. Put your hands on your knees, hold on your lap. Well, I just sort of, I go away. Okay. So, you know, like there's this part where he takes you through the relaxation at the top. You're focusing on your breathing and you know, there's a like relaxing flow that goes over your entire body
Starting point is 00:50:23 into your deep relax. Breathe out, through the nose. It does seem like every time he comes back in, it would take you out of it. Mr. Wayne. Yeah, Mr. Wayne. Would you, do you have to, I know sometimes with hymno therapy, people have a place they go to,
Starting point is 00:50:38 like a happy place or envision someone's in a forest. Or do you have a place where you go to that you envision or is it not like that? It's a void. Oh dear. I mean, I truly disappear. And then hours later when I come back, is it like the void from the old Mac computers? commercials?
Starting point is 00:50:54 I'm not sure. I even remember that. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, and they were just standing on the white. Yes. Yes. Yes. You ever watch those on YouTube? We should do an Apple commercial compilation. That'd be great.
Starting point is 00:51:12 Are you watching like in chronological order of commercials and you haven't gotten to that yet? We're only on Mikey likes it. So, okay. So you are in that kind of void. Yeah, all I know is I disappear. And that's comforting to you. That's sort of you. I mean, I think it's a deep, relaxed state of a pure place of creativity. I think it's the place maybe we all go when we die.
Starting point is 00:51:35 Oh, wow. Interesting. My cat died. Oh, I'm so sorry. Thank you. What was their name? Their name was, oh, was Pines. Pines. Beautiful name. Which, Peony and Pines. was, uh, beans.
Starting point is 00:51:48 Beanie and beans. Or beans. No, it is. No, I just want to make it clear. The beanies totally different. Peens. RIP. I'm not controversial. Beanie is totally different than beans. Right, beanie is a person. Peens. Peens is a cat. Peens is a cat, R-I-P. Peens, R-I-P. R-I-Peens. Oh, sweet, peens.
Starting point is 00:52:09 Yeah, rest in peens. I do, as I get it. Did you ever get a single preengled beans? Yes. Oh no, that made them cry, I'm so sorry. Well, that is- Oh no, that's not what caused it. Oh no.
Starting point is 00:52:22 Oh, what? Death by preengle. Death by single preeng it. Oh, no. Oh, what? Death by Pringle. Death by Pringle. I know. Why? What was the problem? How did it happen? How did it? This palm is very upset.
Starting point is 00:52:31 I know. I guess I shouldn't. Peens choked on the Pringle. They're very jagged, I guess. Oh, wait. They're chips. For a cat. And it turns out cats aren't supposed to eat chips.
Starting point is 00:52:39 It tore her up from the inside. Oh, no. The whole thing. Oh, no. I guess. Oh wait. There's chips. For a cat. And it turns out cats aren't supposed to eat chips and tore her up from the inside. Oh no. The whole way down. Wait, can I just ask,
Starting point is 00:52:51 where are you acquiring the single Pringle? Are you home making it or are you just grabbing a regular Pringle or did you make your own? Oh yeah, do you buy a tube of Pringles and then you just mark up as crazy? Crazy. You take it up one at a time. Crazy. I buy the Pringles and then you just mark up as crazy. You take it out one at a time.
Starting point is 00:53:06 I buy the Pringles at Costco and I do take them out. One at a time. One at a time. So it was a regular Pringle. Well, I packaged them. For a cat that's like eating a broken glass. I guess a broken glass. That's what the vet said.
Starting point is 00:53:20 A single broken glass. They said, did she swallow glass? And I was like, no. Oh my Lord. I didn't realize Pringles were so diabolical in that way. They said, did she swallow glass? And I was like, no. I didn't realize Pringles were so diabolical in that way. No, it slashed her. Oh, it slashed her. So there was multiple stab wounds throughout the inside
Starting point is 00:53:35 of her body. This is traumatic. I'm so sorry you went through this. She was my soulmate. I never would have done it if I didn't. I never would have given her the Pringle. I just wanted to show my most beloved life partner this delicious crisper prie.
Starting point is 00:53:54 It's so innocent. It almost sounds like a curse to have a soulmate that you will definitely outlive by many, many years. Oh yes, that's always. But you know, you really never know. You never know. You never know. But you know, Doug and Joan have a dog, Eskra, I really never know. You never know. You never know. I mean, but you know, Doug and Joan have a dog,
Starting point is 00:54:07 Eskra, I'm sure you can smell him from here. And he's got to be in his mid sixties. You just move it up. It was thirties a couple weeks ago, then it was fifties. Now it's sixties. It's getting ridiculous now, but he is not in his sixties. I know he's not. But, but he and Michael Cain are very similar.
Starting point is 00:54:22 He is taking on a lot of, he really does sort of, he moves a lot slower. He's starting to look like an old very similar. He is taking on a lot of, he really does sort of, he moves a lot slower. He's starting to look like an old English gentleman. He really is. Could I borrow him? I mean, you could try, but I don't know that he could make the journey. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:54:36 He doesn't like being in cars. He doesn't go on walks anymore. We've established he has three big legs plus a big tail. It's really hard. He mostly just rests now. I'd love to go to him and meet him sometime. Oh, you absolutely can. He's just around the corner. So I'm really sorry about that. Yeah, Pins was really sad. And I know you made it sound like, oh, I just buy Pringles,
Starting point is 00:54:59 but like, that's not the point. Oh, I didn't mean to make it sound like anything. I'm sorry. I don't think anyone made it sound like that. Because my invention is all about each Pringle being so fresh on its own. Of course. And when you talk about the invention, what invention is it you're exactly saying?
Starting point is 00:55:13 Is the can, is the candy invention? Yes. Because I know it's not the Pringle. Well, you know, okay, in a regular Pringle tin, some of us don't like to eat a ton of Pringles at a time. So you open it, you eat a couple of Pringles, and then I don't like to eat a ton of Pringles at a time, so you open it, you eat a couple of Pringles, and then I don't know if you know this about air, but it does bad things to your food.
Starting point is 00:55:30 So, you know, it's just the more air, the more it's going stale, it's going bad, but the time you get to the bottom of that Pringle, thank you. That's why the last few Pringles are always disgusting. That's right. But every single Pringle is a fresh Pringle. A fresh one.
Starting point is 00:55:50 Outstanding a fresh one. Ha ha ha ha. Outstanding fresh one. We got it in under the wire. I think that's my commercial. Have you seen it? No. Oh, I put it up myself on-
Starting point is 00:56:02 Oh, is it on YouTube? It's on YouTube. Oh, we'll take it forever to get to it. I don't have followers. None. Zero. Wait, you don't have one at home? I have zero followers.
Starting point is 00:56:12 I did ask my NB crew and they said- They wouldn't follow. They felt weird about it. Well, no, that doesn't seem right. They felt weird about it. Well, what's the name of the channel if you'd like to broadcast it here? Oh, absolutely.
Starting point is 00:56:24 Oh, I would love to. Yes. They felt weird about it. Well, what's the name of the channel if you'd like to broadcast it here? Oh, I would love to. It's Single Pringles for Pines. So it's Single Pringles UH4, the number four Pines. Single Pringles, where's the H? Oh, UH4 Pines. They said the name was confusing and too long. Oh, I've seen long.
Starting point is 00:56:46 It sounded like I sounded it out. They said, they said it sounded like I sounded it out and then just committed to it. They were like, you know, you can change it. Oh, it's so hard to get a new address. And you know, you have to do that with all the passwords nowadays. You're basically just writing gibberish.
Starting point is 00:57:01 Microsoft Word, why won't you remember me? I just put on the microphone and I just screamed gibberish and it accepts it finally. That's the only way to get an accepted password that you somehow haven't already used. And there's no smug about it. You know what I don't like? It's already in you.
Starting point is 00:57:17 It's already in you. It's definitely the only way. I don't like when they say you can't use the at symbol. It's one of my favorites to put it on a line of gibberish. Yeah, that's not fair. So why can't I use that? I don't know. I can use the ampersand but not the at symbol. It's one of my favorites to put it on a line of gibberish. So why can't I use that? I don't know. I can use the ampersand but not the at symbol. Yeah, since when? Since when? I don't want you to feel any shame, Pom, about that address. And now we've got it out into the
Starting point is 00:57:35 world and people might listen to it. So you've got to put up that commercial. I do want to ask. It is up. Oh, it is up. That's right. Zero views. It's a mirror. Is it the single and Pringle standard spelling or is it the double E's? It's C-E-E-N. C! Yeah, you didn't get that. I missed the C! Oh yeah, it's been C the whole time.
Starting point is 00:57:54 C-E-E-N. C-E-E-N. Freeze? No, no. C-E-E-N-G-L-E-P-R-E-E-N-G-L-E-P-R-E-E-N-G-L-E-P-R-E-E-E-N-G-L-E-P-R-E-E-E-N-G-L-E-P-R-E-E-E-N-G-L-E-P-R-E-E-E-N-G-L-E-P-R-E-E-E-N-G-L-E-P-R-E-E-E-N-G-L-E-P-R-E-E-E-N-G-L-E-P-E-E-N-G-L-E-P-E-E-N-G-L-E-P-E-E-N-G-L-E-P-E-E-N-G-L-E-P-E-N-G-L-E-P-E-N-G-L-E-P-E-N-G-L-E-P-E-N-G-L-E-P-E-N-G-L-E-P-E-N-G-L-E-P-E-N-G-L-E-P-R-E-E-N-G-L-E-U-H number four. Wait, yeah, number four. P-E-E-N-S. Oh, it's S. Okay, good. And, you know, I think you can also now realize
Starting point is 00:58:24 that Pines is in the name a little bit. Of course. Is that why you did it? Wow. Yeah. Did you do that after Pringle said no. Oh, but now it has a double meaning. But now, yes. A special hidden meaning. Is there any disclaimer like do not feed to cats? Oh, there probably should be. I know, because I oh, no, the title says four peens,
Starting point is 00:58:47 like it's for your cat. No! Well, I don't think they're, I will say, they're not going to intuit that peens is a cat. If anything, this might be controversial. Getting there. Is this controversial? That peens might not be a cat?
Starting point is 00:59:02 You think so, is see four peens and not know that it's my cat? I do, I'm not sure that that's controversial, but it's definitely not gonna be clear. Is your cat famous in any way? No. Yeah, then yeah, they're not gonna make that association. No, I don't think they're gonna know.
Starting point is 00:59:14 They're not gonna make that association. Oh no. I think what they're gonna say is, there was probably so many single Pingals of four addresses that began that way, and then had some things already so close to Peens that they'll just assume you had to switch it, you know? That's what happens. I think they're gonna think it's for penises. That is also true though, many people. Why? That's honestly why I'm surprised. Why would they think that?
Starting point is 00:59:36 Because that's kind of what people call penis sometimes, a peen. Who calls it that? My twins for one. Doug? Are you telling me I named my cat after penises? Oh, did you not even, you never knew that that was something that people call? You named your cat after penises. Yes. Berndt is giving it to you. Inadvertently. I didn't because I didn't know.
Starting point is 00:59:57 You didn't know it's honest. Everyone I told my cat's name to thought I named it. They probably made the connection. Yeah. I mean, I thought it. I thought it immediately. What do you think, everyone thinks I'm some sicko? Well, you know what's interesting? No, what's interesting is the fact that Pines is on there,
Starting point is 01:00:12 I'm surprised he didn't get at least one view. That's true. There's gotta be people searching for Pines on YouTube. You think people search for- A single Pien. Number four Pienes, they're just looking for sicko penises. Someone're just looking for four peens, penises. I don't know. I think putting, I think putting the word sicko with this.
Starting point is 01:00:28 And again, that's not, it's not, you're not a sicko. There's nothing wrong with looking for peens. Nothing wrong with looking for peens. I just feel so bad. I named my beautiful cat after penises inadvertently. And then I murdered her with my chimp. I think that you are indicting yourself and you don't need to murdered her with my ship. I think that you are indicting yourself
Starting point is 01:00:46 and you don't need to, that was an accident. At most it was cat slaughter. It was involuntary cat slaughter. Oh, I couldn't get it out fast enough. I threw it involuntary. It's better, actually. Thank you. It's honestly better.
Starting point is 01:00:59 We did it together. It's more clear. It was a collab. Okay, sorry, Pom. This is really hitting you hard. I know it's a lot, it's a collab. Okay, sorry, Pom. This is really hitting you hard. I know it's a lot. It's a lot. I'm still in the grief period too.
Starting point is 01:01:10 I'm so sorry. The one thing we could do, it almost feels like, do you think, it almost feels like if you could just find the store, it would be healing. It would maybe close this chapter. I would love it. I would love to just taste it. Babe, you have it? I remembered.
Starting point is 01:01:23 Oh, you remembered. You remembered the store? Of course. Because I think this is it taste it. Babe, you have it? I remembered. Oh, you remembered. You remembered the stores? Of course. Because I think this is it, Pom. DF Delicacies and Dramamine. That's right. DF Delicacies and Dramamine.
Starting point is 01:01:32 Yes, they sell every day. Have you tried that yet? And not Dramamine, Dramamine. Dramamine. Are you involved? I am. I know you're... I petition to have it drama italicized
Starting point is 01:01:43 with a little comedy and tragedy masks. And they're wearing hats. And the masks are wearing hats. Yes. The masks are wearing hats. It's very overpriced and they're proud of that. And they have so many dips. They have an entire, they have a room of dips. You walk into it. It's like a beer room, but it's a dip room. Yes. Do they let you try? They call it the deporium. They call it the deporium. They have a bouncer. There's a bouncer. Yeah. It's easy to get thrown out. I've been on there sometimes and they said, no, too many guys in here already. Oh, it's yeah. Just like a club. They don't want that many men. Oh, well. They get so close to the cheese and they start just, you know, talking to
Starting point is 01:02:25 it and it's very creepy. That is your I think that's your answer. Do they let you try? That was so good. Do we think what do they let you try the dips at the top oriam? There are no dip samples. But I think what you just need to look at is just what the label is going to be. They're doing that thing with their eyes again.
Starting point is 01:02:42 I mean, it's not like pimento cheese is prohibitively expensive. No, it's not. Did I tell you? You asked me what I do for a living. Oh yes, and your garage work. You could at least ask Dedeen, is this where you got the pimento cheese? That is a great start, Bert. That's a great place to start.
Starting point is 01:03:02 You're welcome. Dedeen has gotten really upset about how many times I've asked about. Oh, how many times have you asked? Oh. I'm a little embarrassed to say. I would say, I would say you almost disappeared into that void, the look on your face.
Starting point is 01:03:18 Well, every time I come out of the void, the first thing I do is call Dedeen. Oh no. And I ask about. That doesn't seem like a reprogramming at all. No, it's just programming. It's. Oh, no. Ask about it. Doesn't seem like a reprogramming at all. No, it's just programming. It's not. It's just programming.
Starting point is 01:03:28 I got it. It's just programming. OK, yeah, I go into the void thinking about peens. Oh, to be clear, to be clear, everybody. And now that you know, let's always make sure we clarify. It's about your cat, about my cat. What a statement. always make sure we clarify. It's about your cat. About my cat. Hehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehe hehehe he's always thinking about your cat because the programming just doesn't work that way. You know, you're truly gone. But I like to think I was. How does Michael Caine take you out of the, you know, how does it end? What does he say? Okay.
Starting point is 01:04:09 So he doesn't, I think he does try. Oh, he falls asleep in the early times, but I leave. I just leave. I just leave. No, it's me. I leave. Oh, you do the leaving. Okay.
Starting point is 01:04:19 I pass out. The first time I did it, I did stay through it. I didn't go away as much. It took a few times for me to like disappear. I passed out. The first time I did it, I did stay through it. I didn't go away as much. It took a few times for me to like disappear. And those times he's describing things, you know, there's always a like, Oh, it's as if you're in a dream, you know, like that leads to there's like, precise wording that leads you right into visualization and things like that. And then he counts you out. But I don't, I'm gone before that. You're gone. You're already in the voice.
Starting point is 01:04:50 In the visualization, I disappear. And I don't remember if I see peens, but I really hope I did. And I come out of it with being very relaxed with some ideas. You know what? I harassed my friend, Dedeen. Okay. But you don't have to do it this time when you're going to pick with some ideas. I harassed my friend, Dedeen. Okay, but you don't have to do it this time when you're going to pick up the phone. I want you to ask Dedeen, is it at, sorry babe,
Starting point is 01:05:11 can you give us the title again? D.F. Delicacies and Dramamine. D.F. Delicacies and Dramamine. And dramamine. And dram and dramamine. With the comedy, with the happy face outfit. That's right. The comedy, tragedy face.
Starting point is 01:05:24 And you know what? And then if you get it, and then I think that maybe if you can find that and maybe prove it's the perfect pairing for your single Pringles, then just justice for peens, make sure you put a warning on the label. You know that justice for peens. Hashtag justice for peens and people will know what that means. 100%. That hashtag is going to take off for sure.
Starting point is 01:05:41 They definitely will, that'll take off. Yeah, justice for peens. Hashtag justice for peens. I hope you know what that means. Ooh, and a little rhyme. What about that? Well, it's long. The store name's very long.
Starting point is 01:05:51 I was inspired. The store name is very long. I did. That's the one thing I remember, that it was long. So a single Pringle, a dollop, a dip. A dollop, a dip, and Justice for Peans. Don't forget some Dramamine too. It's delicious there. Delicious. Oh, it's a flavor. It actually is very tasty. They have a Dramamine dip. Oh, it's a Dramamine too. It's delicious there. Delicious. Oh, it's a flavor. Just don't drive after it. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:06:05 It actually is very tasty. They have a Dramamine dip. Oh, it's a Dramamine dip. I mean, it comes in all forms. And it does deal with motion sickness and it's a little dramatic. And it's delicious. And it's delicious. Okay.
Starting point is 01:06:18 We wish you the best of luck, Pom. Oh, thank you. Pom, I hope that this is the store. I bet that it is. I know. You know, I love it when we have what feels like a solution in an episode. Absolutely. TIA. I just want to say TIA.
Starting point is 01:06:30 Does that mean thanks in advance? Oh no. What does it mean? What does it mean? I'm sorry. Is that what it means to people? Thanks in advance? Oh no.
Starting point is 01:06:41 Yeah. What does it mean to you? Oh, it means turkeys and apples. Turkeys in apples. Yeah. And what does that mean? Oh, have you ever had a turkey and an apple? Oh, my God. It's one of the most delicious things. Is this another one of your? Yes. It's one of the most delicious. It is. My first question is how? Is that like a protein style turkey sandwich? Yeah, animal style. Yeah, people are familiar with like collard green wraps or lettuce wraps.
Starting point is 01:07:09 I have to point out that you did say a turkey and not like a slice of turkey. Yeah. My question is how? My first question is how? A whole turkey and an apple? Yes. Well, you got to get a smaller than average turkey and a bigger than average apple. So a turkey embryo. just called an a perky.
Starting point is 01:07:28 That's a great name. That is a great name. I'm just calling it a turkey and an apple for short.

Starting point is 01:08:51 We'll be back with the Neighborhood List when the Neighborhood List returns. Hey, what's up? This is Elizabeth. I'm offering this for free as a large glass tabletop. Period. It's a rectangular glass tabletop. It's 84 inches by 43 inches by 3 quarters inches. Beveled edges. Excellent condition. Very heavy. It was given to me several years ago but never used. Why? Because I didn't have anything to put it on. You can't just give somebody It was given to me several years ago but never used. Why?
Starting point is 01:09:25 Because I didn't have anything to put it on. You can't just give somebody a gigantically heavy glass tabletop out of nowhere. Why would I have just the bottom of a table laying around? You gave me half a table and you gave me the worst half. Because a glass tabletop, is there anything worse on earth something you have to constantly worry about You ever spill coffee on one of those things just runs all over the place At least it's on a coffee table bang your shins on that Thank God
Starting point is 01:10:03 Anyway, it was given to me by a relative that I despise and who thankfully is dead. So, it's yours for free and I know I just talked a big deal about, you know, I don't have a table bottom just lying around and now I'm expecting you to, but hey, there's a lot of weirdos out there there's a lid for every pot as they say and maybe there's a heavy glass stupid tabletop for some weirdo who's got just a four legs I know I'm not selling this thing well I shouldn't call you weirdos but honest to God. Well, Uncle Doug, I hope you're enjoying the view in hell. Welcome back to the neighborhood, listen. I put my microphone down for a minute.
Starting point is 01:10:54 I'm sorry. Well, I won't do that again. That's quite all right. I like to hold it. See everybody else uses just a stand. I use a microphone stand, yes. Yeah, I like to hold it. Cause again, it just makes me feel more like
Starting point is 01:11:03 I'm in a cabaret. Oh, okay. I just like being in charge, you know, in terms of the microphone. Oh, you feel it's in a stand. I like that I move and it moves with me. You're giving up agency. Yes, I'm shackled to the microphone if I'm sitting at the stand, but this way I can just move around freely.
Starting point is 01:11:23 For those who can't see, all I'm doing is just moving my shoulders back and forth barely. But you do sometimes when we're recording, you do get up and walk around. I do like to sometimes. Yes, I do. I like to keep it moving. I like to keep it fresh. Keep it loose. And I have kind of a Bob Dylan harmonica thing for my mic. I call that the night brace. Oh yeah. Kind of like this braces. Those are hard to pull off. Kind of like those braces. Yes. That's exactly what I meant. You nailed it. This is kind of like it. Well, I hope that Palm... Sweet Palm, what was that babe? What was that? What was that? Was that you trying to launch a tennis ball? Are you in the shrubs?
Starting point is 01:12:06 My arm fell asleep and I had to roll. I had to do a barrel roll. So what was that sound? That was the sound of the barrel roll? Your body sounds like a fan bag. What are you doing? Why are you just rolling around? It sounds like you're rolling down a hill.
Starting point is 01:12:17 I wanted to show it to you again. To show it to us? We can't see you. Well, I guess we look out the down a hill. I wanted to show it to you again. To show it to us. We can't see you. Well, I guess we look out the window from here. I guess. I can sort of, wait, I'm, Doug, I'm waving. I see a dirt cloud.
Starting point is 01:12:32 I'm waving, do you see me? Oh, she's waving. Okay, stop rolling around. I did see the shaking of the bushes. Well, I had to roll out to see you. All right. Can you see us? I can see you.
Starting point is 01:12:40 Okay. Oh my gosh. Don't give away my location. There's still a lot of dirt in the driveway because he's still doing that parking lot. That's only going to have three spaces that he wants to do. I thought you abandoned the parking lot. Nope. Nope. Nope. I don't abandon. I don't abandon. All right. Why the last post? Yes, we have time for one more post.
Starting point is 01:12:58 This is from Lily. Lily. And this says, Can anyone give me movie ideas for seniors at my work? They have movie night every night, but they like classic good movies. Please share your ideas. Thanks. I think that we got this because people think we're a movie podcast. Oh no, that could be true. We're not a movie podcast. But this kind of, I don't know, it kind of is weird to me that this would have to be
Starting point is 01:13:19 opposed because I don't know, you can just look up old movies. I mean, there's Turner classic movies there there's no dearth of ways to find out and access no classic movies. If you have if you have an idea of these people's age range yes you can say what are the classic movies of that era yes and you will get a list for sure. But this is weird because you know as we approach I keep getting realizing every ten years I'm gonna become the senior you know so like what so every ten years to me I I'm thinking, oh, that's my, my grandmother who's going to want to see, you know, Casablanca, but that's not
Starting point is 01:13:52 what the seniors of today classic movies for the seniors now. Let's see if they're like in their seventies. The Poseidon adventure. Reynolds was there, Cary Grant. That's right. That's right. And it's sad to call cannonball. Well, that's song by the Plixies. You combine all the words.
Starting point is 01:14:22 I just add letters. Cannonball. Cannonball is a classic in its own way, but to call it a classic because it's old, that's hard to hear. You know what I mean? It's really hard to hear. Then it gets into classic rock. Oh, sure. Which is just because it's old. Maroon 5.
Starting point is 01:14:36 Yeah, exactly. Jamiroquai. That one song by Got Ya. Got Ya. Got ya? Got ya. Got ya. Got ya. Got ya.
Starting point is 01:14:44 Got ya. Got ya. Got ya. Got ya. Got ya. Jamira. That one song by gotcha. Yeah, gotcha. So I don't know. I mean, if we could give some. So, yeah, I think you're right. Cannonball run is a great or just cannonball, which was a little known prequel. Show them cannonball run. Show them cannonball run. They will be happy. The men will be happy to see Sally Field change in the car and
Starting point is 01:15:05 the women will be happy to see Bert run. They're going to love to see Dom DeLauise being slapped. Everyone's going to love that. Yes. You watch the bloopers, these bleeds, these bleeds right here. There are a surprising amount of bloopers out there. Oh, we could do a compilation of that. Of what? Of bloopers? Yeah, of all the bloopers. Of Cannibal Run. Oh. And there was a Cannibal Run too, right? I think Cannibal Run took care of that for you.
Starting point is 01:15:29 Oh, you mean you could watch them? Yes, that's what I'm saying. Yes, of course. That's what I'm saying. I thought you meant you would compile them. Help me remember because I always get confused. There was Smokey. Smokey and the Bandit.
Starting point is 01:15:41 And the Bandit. I was gonna say Smokey Joe's, but that's a musical. Smokey and the Bandit. And the Bandit. I was gonna say Smokey Joe's, but that's a musical. It's also a bar in a town that I know. Oh, it is? Oh, great. College bar.
Starting point is 01:15:52 That came first, they are connected, right? It's the same characters, right? No, as Cannonball Run? Sometimes I think of that. No, no, no. Smokey and the Bandit, I'm gonna say Cannonball Run makes Smokey and the Bandit, I'm going to say Cannonball Run makes Smoky and the Bandit look like Citizen King. Now that's controversial.
Starting point is 01:16:08 If you thought Cannonball Run was a little frivolous and you wanted a little more meat. And which one came first? Smoky and the Bandit was first. Okay, I just for whatever reason get those confused. There was Smoky and the Bandit, Smoky and the Bandit 2, and then Smoky and the Bandit 3. Smoky is the Bandit 2 and then Smokey and the Bandit 3, Smokey is the Bandit. But Smokey and the Bandit is the one with the, he has the buddy with the truck and the dog.
Starting point is 01:16:30 That's correct, right? Or is it Cannibal Run? I think it's Cannibal Run. I think Cannibal Run has a dog. Again, this is not a movie podcast. I'm really sorry for this. I think, ah, now you got me. You know, the guy in the semi with the dog.
Starting point is 01:16:41 Yes, Jerry Reed. Oh, there you go. Good job. Is his friend. Okay. Doug, you're, can you go. Good job. Is his friend. OK. Doug, you're you're can you see the can you just go outside and someone's at the door. So you're going to have to roll over there. They don't have eggs, do they? No, they don't have eggs.
Starting point is 01:16:53 They're delivering food. Go find out. Wouldn't that be terrible if they dressed up as that's and then we ended up telling him he could trust that person I got egged. I do feel good. It looks like it looks like I can see in the camera It looks like it was food. Well, I got food covered in eggs Look at him out there Doug is covered with eggs We're able to fire off any tennis ball. I'm so sorry.
Starting point is 01:17:32 All right. So much more to say about, so much more to say about Cannonball Rod. Yeah, exactly.
