Starting point is 00:00:00 We interrupt this program. Previously, critics had brailed against the duo as crude, dumb, ugly, thoughtless, sexist, self-destructive, and foolish. They are not part of the legitimate business world. What they do is they celebrate underachievement. And all candor, I would tell you it's outrageous, Phil. And if I could find somewhere constitutionally to do away with it, I would. Can you bring me my chapstick? My lips hurt real bad
Starting point is 00:01:04 I know for a fact the nurse has like A dozen in her drawer No Napoleon Good morning everybody My weeners in the rain Will you do me a favor of that And bring me my chapstick No Napoleon
Starting point is 00:01:24 Good morning everybody I lips are real bad Napoleon Napoleon Don't be mad that I'm just chatting online with Babes all day. Happy Tuesday, everybody. How are we doing? You said last night's football was good?
Starting point is 00:01:44 Yeah, that was a good game. Did he happen to have any clips in there? Let me see. It was on the ass thing. Shocking end, I do. Chargers in overtime. Yep. Hertz keeps, throws.
Starting point is 00:01:56 Bad and intercepted. And the Chargers win the ball game. Jefferson with the pick. Cam Hart tipped it. And the Chargers go to not. Yeah. Sorry, handsome Nick. He's a bird man.
Starting point is 00:02:15 Jalen Hurts just has those games every once in a while where he'll look spectacular and then he'll do that because if it wasn't for him, I mean, they would have been fine. He had four picks and a fumble rusky. But you can't win them all. And they're fine. They're still, they're like, I think eight and five. Dallas is, what, six and seven?
Starting point is 00:02:35 I don't know. They're that. 6.7.1. Or 6.6 and 1 or something. Whatever. You know what I mean? So they're still, they're fine. Why was Justin Herbert running away from Laura Rutledge after the game? Oh, I don't know. What is this clip?
Starting point is 00:02:50 And we will go to Laura Rutledge, who is hustling to get this interview from Justin Herbert. Yeah, I'm trying to celebrate with my... Section there that sealed this game for you guys to get this win. Yeah, the defense played incredible. You know, they came up with so many big stops today. So, so proud to be able to play for those guys. And the way they compete down in, down out is really fun to watch. We know you were dealing with the broken hand tonight.
Starting point is 00:03:18 You gutted it out. You were hit multiple times. How are you feeling right now? Feel pretty good. Thank you. And then what can you say about the way that this team was able to pull this off in overtime? You guys know how important this game was and how good the opponent was on the other side? Yeah, not the way we drew it up, but the battle in these guys, you know, it's so much fun.
Starting point is 00:03:35 And I'm so honored to be a part of this team. And they never quit. And, you know, it's just fun to be a part of. And we'll watch the film and have to get better at it. And we'll keep moving forward. Thank you, Dustin. Yep, thank you. I love you.
Starting point is 00:03:46 And I love you. Go celebrate with his teammates. Thank you, Lord. Like, I get it. He wanted to go celebrate with his team. But those are, like, they get paid for those, you guys. Yeah. Yes.
Starting point is 00:03:54 A little behind the scenes. Like, they have to do that because they're being paid for. That's why he was probably had some guy behind him that was nudging him from behind a little with his hand just a little. No, that's $10,000 right there. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You have to do. You have to do.
Starting point is 00:04:06 owns the rights to you as Monday night football and what comes with it is a post game interview. In their contract, it'll say post game interview or like, you'll always notice that the coaches are asked two questions. Yeah. Because that's what they're contractually obligated. It's always coach and then edda-da-da-da-da. Okay, thank you. Thanks coach. And then he goes into the locker room.
Starting point is 00:04:24 Because Kaching, that just paid his car payment. That's why. Yeah. Because that's why when it's nothing, that's why it's such a big deal. Yeah. Yeah. Although I was too tired. I was like, I go.
Starting point is 00:04:33 I have a bad time. But I wanted to see what. what was he doing? When the Chargers, if you see the clip later, after the interception, you know, they all do that thing where they run and celebrate. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It was in Los Angeles. Yeah. So it was their home field.
Starting point is 00:04:50 And there was an Eagles guy that looked like he got really mad that they were about to celebrate and started to run after them for a second. And I wanted to go back and be like, what are you going to do? Like, where are you going? Yeah, it was somebody. And I want to be like, where are you going right now? What are you going to go do? You're going to fight them all with his hands? And then you didn't see him again.
Starting point is 00:05:07 But he took off after the group. And I was like, no, stick with that guy. Stick with that guy. Lots to get to on a Tuesday. We'll do your high strangeness. Coming up here in the 7 o'clock hour. Next Friday, big day. It is our annual Festivist show.
Starting point is 00:05:24 And I'm realizing I got to get our PJs. I got to order them today if they're going to be here in time. So we got to figure out our PJs today. I got to figure out the prizes I need today. because next Friday we'll be at Lock One Distilling in Phoenix, New York for our annual festival broadcast, friends. If you want to be on that list, you know what to do it. Hit up my DMs, put up the text line, very limited VIP list.
Starting point is 00:05:50 So I got to first ones, first, first come first serve, first in, first ones. And you better show up or we'll be crushed. I'll be devastated. Devastated. And we'll be eating big old bowls of Grinch spaghetti. Cody, have you been seeing these videos? The latest trend is to make your kids grinch spaghetti. It's green spaghetti.
Starting point is 00:06:13 How do you do that? I mean, they have just like that pasta you have that, you know, it's made out of... Well, you could make it... Or what they're doing, and I don't even know how this works, you just put food coloring in the water when you boil the spaghetti, and it turns it greens. Oh, really?
Starting point is 00:06:28 Then I kind of like that. It's better. I thought... I got the two mixed up. I thought it was going to be the L. thing where he has The Alf on a shelf thing? No, no, Alf, the movie where he has maple syrup
Starting point is 00:06:41 and chocolate sauce. That's too much going on. No, no, no, no, yeah. Now the problem is, like, I'm looking at the footage of it, and you can just type in Grinch Spaghetti, you'll see a million photos. It weirds me out that they put red sauce on it.
Starting point is 00:06:54 Like for some reason, that looks grosser than just green spaghetti. No, no, I've got to see. Like a pile of green spaghetti with red sauce on it. There is a healthy way to do it. They say you can pure some broccoli and veggies, but that's nerdy stuff. Yeah, don't be a nerd. I mean, that's funny.
Starting point is 00:07:12 But, I mean, does it really turn it that green? It's like a bright green. You got to use a lot of dye. Yeah, like you gotta use a lot of food coloring. Are you supposed to be doing that, though? I mean, I guess they're right. There's it with everything else that we eat. I like it.
Starting point is 00:07:25 Yeah. I like that. It's fun. It sounds silly and fun for the kids. You're right, though. The red sauce on top of it throws me off for some reason. It's the same problem I have. back in the day with those dyed ketchup.
Starting point is 00:07:36 There's certain colors I don't want my food. I don't want my ketchup green. I don't want my ketchup purple. Purple cats up. I want purple cats up. My brain accepts foods a certain color and when they're a different color, I can't comprehend it. Yeah, it's very weird.
Starting point is 00:07:51 I guess they're making, they could sometimes dye the plates and dye the things. So be careful, I guess, dye in your spaghetti. You're taking something that's still wet and food colored, plopping it on your fancy china. The younger the children, they're putting their hands and stuff,
Starting point is 00:08:08 then they got green hands. They've got some green hands. Weapons, lights on the lake tonight, and every night through the holiday season. Get your tickets now, Lights on the lake.com. It's Taco Tuesday with our friends at Taco Bell.
Starting point is 00:08:24 Not to tell you how to spend your money, but that new Poblano rolled cassidia Taco Bell is bomb ass. It does look. good. It's so good. And their steak isn't usually my jam, but that, that looked good. Because I love a steak, cassidia from Taco Bell. And I like things that are rolled up like that. And I like it rolled up because sometimes it ain't cut all the way and then I got to pull it
Starting point is 00:08:47 apart in my car and I'm trying to drive. But the rolled up, cascadian, problem solved. No, I stopped trying to eat Taco Bell in the car when I tried to split a taco without so once. How'd that go, bud? Just go all over the place. Yeah, I bet it was. She doesn't know how to contain food. She doesn't know how to do like the delicate car drive eat. She's doing dog eating. Yeah, pretty much.
Starting point is 00:09:09 Pretty much. It was just a big old bite and then did the thing where she did like, I'm like, oh, you're dropping it everywhere. Yeah, Bob, what are he doing? Oh. Not to get ahead of ourselves. We're not eating taco. Speaking of Taco Bell, God willing, in the Creek don't rise come January.
Starting point is 00:09:25 Your boys will be guest bartenders at the new Taco Bell catina, can't. I can't. In Manlius. I can't wait for. for this. They booked it yesterday. I want to see you in a Taco Bell where I'm basically assuming, not that we have free rain,
Starting point is 00:09:41 but you could just turn around and be like, let me get a little. Well, we did a video. Remember when AJ and I worked the Taco Bell once? Yes, yes. That was pretty awesome. And I still have my Taco Bell hat that I can bring down. There you go.
Starting point is 00:09:51 And were you able to kind of engorge yourself? No, they wouldn't let me touch the food. Oh, really? We were just kind of there and working the drive-thru. But you could very easily. just say, hey, can I has cassadilla while I'm slinging Slinging slush. So that's coming up in January, folks.
Starting point is 00:10:10 I hope to see you over there. I'll give you more information after we get through the holidays. We were talking in chat during Lincoln Park there. About first cars, because Grandpa Lottie was for saying, back in my day, can buy a used car for $1,100. Right, that was a good one too. And I was thinking, could you buy
Starting point is 00:10:28 any used cars for that price now? Oh, no way. I, not on like Carvana or anything, but I'm on Craigslist now. Well, I was going to say, is that auto trader thing still a thing? At the grocery store? At the grocery store? I'm sure that's there. Rack of free, whatever.
Starting point is 00:10:44 Here's some of your options right now. Okay. According to Craigslist. Oh, boy. I could get you in an 06 Chrysler Town and Country Mechanic Special, which means. It means someone fix it in their yard. No, it means you got to fix it. That's what they mean.
Starting point is 00:10:57 They mean if you are a mechanic, this is for you. $600. $600. It's got 213,000 miles on it. All right. I could get you in an 07 Volkswagen Passat in Beeville with 150,000 miles in it, $1,500. That's not bad, though. I remember those little passats.
Starting point is 00:11:15 I could get you to GMC box truck for $800. What? Maybe. Maybe. I want to convert it to like an apartment. I was going to say, kind of. Can I get that now? That's what I'll have to do here pretty soon is live in a box truck.
Starting point is 00:11:26 Stored in the parking lot. I watch all these stealth camper videos of people that live in box trucks, because that is my future eventually. I'll be kicked off the radio and kicked out of my house and have to live in a truck. And they do this move because if you're living in a box truck and they know you're living in it, you can get towed and fine in all these things. All these things. So they have to like make them secret camping box trucks.
Starting point is 00:11:48 And they'll make like fake U-Haul things and put them in their window to look like it's like, rent this for 1999. Like in the whole world of that. And all of these, our friend Joe and Twitch said to bring to him to fix. Oh, okay, good. Yep, we'll bring them right over there. Yep, he said he wants you to bring those to him. Uh, 2012, 4 Fusion, $1,000, $1,000 miles on it.
Starting point is 00:12:09 How much? $1,500. All right, all right. Generally speaking, you can get a lot of vehicles for $1,500. And listen, if they're putting that vehicle on that, for that, you could say, you could haggle with them. Don't, don't give them, don't just go right out and say, yeah, $1,500 sounds great. No, with the very first for that Passat.
Starting point is 00:12:31 Offer the guy like 800 bucks. Like some of these look too good to be true. Why is this 2010 Nissan Frontier with 118,000 miles only $1,500? Does it got ghosts? Oh. It's probably no transmission. Blown head gasket. Blown head gasket.
Starting point is 00:12:46 Some Ross still runs but will overheat. Needs a pane of glass for the rear window. Otherwise it has new tires, brakes, radio backup cam. So if you could, if you got the knowledge in time to replace a head gasket, which is a big repair, then that's for you. Joe said he wants to do that. Joe could help you with that, actually. He looks forward to that.
Starting point is 00:13:05 So I just got to get that, make Joe fix it, pretend like I'm driving her around, and then just put in a claim to my insurance and be like, oh no, a hawk dropped a cat through my back window. Through the back windshield, yeah. And then the insurance will be like, that sounds crazy.
Starting point is 00:13:19 And then they'll just Google it and they'll just see. That's a thing that actually happens. Or eagle drops cat through windshield and they'll be like, oh, damn it, he was okay. All right, yep, go ahead, and you're good. Boom. I can get a 1998 F-150 for a thousand bucks.
Starting point is 00:13:36 Damn. Okay, that's probably got a hundred billion miles on it. What does that one got? Only 160,000. Let's click it and see what's wrong with it. Yeah, there's something wrong with it. Runs and drives but needs battery, break lines, clutch. All right.
Starting point is 00:13:49 But I have the clutch kit. I love. See, these are things that my... He's coming in clutch. These are things that my Uncle Chuck would buy and then fix them. I was just going to say... He's like the king of this stuff. Is that truck located in Oswego County?
Starting point is 00:14:02 And it has to stay in Oswego County? Is that like the caveat for that? Like, my Uncle Chuck and cousin Travis would see these. What? That's the most of Swigua County sentence ever. My Uncle Chuck and cousin Travis would see these. Obviously. And then you would drive by their yard and it would be in their yard.
Starting point is 00:14:20 And then the next day it'd be for sale because they fixed it. Yeah. I mean, if you can do that, I'm sure you can make good money. They just like, these are cars for them. Those are cars for them. Cous and Travis. That's my cousin Travis. I'm a good.
Starting point is 00:14:34 Somehow. Somehow they weren't related. No. 2007 Cadillac. Okay. $750. What's wrong with this? Hold on.
Starting point is 00:14:44 But what type of Cadillac car are we talking here? Engine runs like a clock. Starts right up. Spot in the frame is rotting. Would not pass inspection. That's a Cadillac car. You can't. Your problem.
Starting point is 00:14:58 That's your problem now. You're driving a Cadillac? My son bought it for me. He's a Cadillac car. He's a Cadillac. Still needs brakes. Passenger side headlight out. Okay.
Starting point is 00:15:10 That stuff, I mean, if you could do frame repair, like did they say it right in, it ain't going to pass inspection. Do you ever wonder what happened to some of these cars? What do you mean? Like, why do they need that? Do you think it just, they blew or it was like some crazy thing? Like, they hit a moose?
Starting point is 00:15:24 No, like, with a frame, I would imagine, it's just rust. Just rust. It's just a lot of rust around here. I'd imagine we've got a lot of rust problems. And I know nothing about cars. Yeah. And even I know some of these things are like the most expensive things ever.
Starting point is 00:15:38 Oh, a head gasket is a major repair. Yeah. I can get you a 2006 Honda Civic. 700 bucks. Oh, I can. Do's not run. Oh. Needs a radiator and a new battery, tires, and new seats.
Starting point is 00:15:51 New seats. What do you do to the seats, bud? That's what I mean. Like with that one, like, you know. Tiles clean? Tiles clean? I own it. Right out?
Starting point is 00:16:00 No leave. That's the most suspicious sentence ever. You're just tuning in. Swear to God, not stolen. We're trying to see how cheap we can get vehicles now because you could literally... Oh, my God, dude.
Starting point is 00:16:14 Oh, what? Is this, we getting a show car? No. For our show derby or whatever. This is the most C&Y thing ever. I could get you half a bus. Yes. 2007 Ford E350
Starting point is 00:16:26 literally half a car. Half a bus. I want you to look at this. Explain it. It's just cut open. Four parts. That's what you get. That's all you're kidding.
Starting point is 00:16:36 You're not driving that. You're parting that out. They cut off the, like it was a bunch of stoner's had the sickest idea for a food truck ever. And they cut the half of the van or the bus and half. Yeah. Oh, wait. Hold on. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:16:50 Everyone's got great business ideas until the business part has to happen. I can get your real school bus. 2001 GMC 3500. Okay. $1,500. Something to rip around in. Those people used to that had the K-Rock sticker on the back of their bus for forever. Remember that?
Starting point is 00:17:07 That bus used to rip around here. Yeah. Go to concerts and stuff. And a couple of you texting and you're getting good deals at Ryan Phelps. Well, thank you. Support our partners. Ryan Phelps auto sales. Get you those used cars.
Starting point is 00:17:19 I don't think he's got any $500 specials. And he doesn't have a 1990 geoprism that was sitting on the side of my garage. That was my stepdad's it. Does not have a white 1989 Ford Mustang with no back seats or floors? Huh. It'll get you to school fine. That's fine. To design the Lexus ES, all we had to do was listen.
Starting point is 00:17:44 Your ears said exactly where to put the speakers. Your eyes told us where to put the available head-up display. Hey, Lexus, find me an alternate route. Even your right foot helped out. It let us know you'd enjoy a little more torque. Turns out, you had a lot to tell us. We certainly heard you. The Lexus E.S.
Starting point is 00:18:03 Not just for you. Buy you. See Burtig Lexus and Cicero. We ain't done going out to Stewart's locations. Where's I read? Hold on as I can. Do our start! That one we were at before.
Starting point is 00:18:18 We're going to be out again, but doing the match thing. The holiday match. We will be up in Oswego. Speaking of Cheevergberg's up, bud, there you go. Oh. We will be up in Aswego this Friday at the Stewart's on West Utica Street. Look what I can do.
Starting point is 00:18:32 Look what I can do. For their holiday match campaign, you guys were so sweet coming out to see us on Friday. It does warm my heart to see so many show fans saying such nice things to us. I mean, not everybody is cool with Scott. No, listen. I was just saying. To this Friday, and I know I'm going to regret saying this. But we're going to do a three to five at Stewart, and I think I'll do a Friday night house partner.
Starting point is 00:18:56 Uh-oh. I think I'll do one. We got to do one, right? Yeah, just won't give yourself. I mean, if you leave it open-ended for yourself. No, I like to look forward to it. I want to promote and people can be there. So I can handle it. I can do it.
Starting point is 00:19:08 I want to get people. You big, strong boy. I want to get people just supporting us and locked in. This Friday, three to five, stewards on West Utica Street. And then seven o'clock, I'll do a house party at the house. Thanks to East Coast Emeralds. Every penny you donate through Christmas at any store, that's any stewards, will be donated back and redistributed to local.
Starting point is 00:19:28 nonprofit organizations to benefit children. We learned when you go into Stewart's. Stort on the wall. It says, uh, 2,024 recipients and it lists all the non-profits. Oh, really? So you can look and see which ones benefited last year. Oh, cool.
Starting point is 00:19:44 So I heard, uh, give change to a, uh, a cow holding a bucket. And I don't, I think I can say this because the manager said it. She said basically anybody who submits their nonprofit will receive some kind of funds. So like, even like volunteer fire departments receive money. Oh, nice. So if you're a nonprofit and you want to submit, go to their website and submit. They do support the community. The worst case scenario is it?
Starting point is 00:20:05 No. That's what I'm saying. It's got to shoot a shot. It's okay. It's okay to be told no. It's okay to be told no sometime. David and Peter Rush have claimed a new world record, Coco. Okay.
Starting point is 00:20:19 The fastest time to clear hungry, hungry hippos by a team of two. All right. See, you know, you do these world records things all the time, and I've been waiting for one to be actually worth it. So, here's something worth celebrating. I'm a sap. I'm a sap for being a dad. They sifted through ideas, explored categories,
Starting point is 00:20:45 and looked for something that was not only achievable, but fun and something we could do together. Oh, I love it. Playing hungry, hungry hippos. That's why I've been going to all these thrift stores because me and my old can go thrift eating together. Looking for Hungry Hungry HIPpos. That is a fun game to play and the bigger version of like a David Busters.
Starting point is 00:21:06 All versions of Hungry and Hungry Hippos is fun. Can I hear audio of it? It's just going to be a bunch of clacking. I like that noise, though. I was just going to say that's a fun noise to hear. So even if you don't. That's it. And he's a really little boy.
Starting point is 00:21:33 Josh loves really little boys. They have a technique, though. So imagine you and I are across on Hungry Hungry Hippos. Yeah. They must have figured out that the balls go to the opposite side. So, like, they're just kind of going left, right, left, right, left, because the balls are about, yeah, that's all they're doing. Not to ruin their record.
Starting point is 00:21:59 Every year's pulled their spot, but now everyone's going to be trying. I think you and I can beat the regular. Right. Congratulations. That's an exciting one. We can train. Let's start training now. Let's get into it, Bob.
Starting point is 00:22:09 And then we, at the start of the new year, could be hungry, hungry, HIPBO chance. We should be a couple hungry, hungry hippos to tell you that much. Other side of this
Starting point is 00:22:17 on HHS, we'll get into your high strangeness, friends. As I've learned how much you guys enjoy high strangeness. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:22:24 And that does put a little added stress on me, but I'm not going to worry about it. I'm not worried about it at all. Not worried about any of that. I will say that when we're out and about,
Starting point is 00:22:38 one of the most common things you're all saying lately is how much you enjoy the high strangeness segment on Tuesdays. After the show? And that does add certain amount of pressure to your boy, because now I'm like, oh, God, they really like it,
Starting point is 00:22:55 and I got to keep finding good mysteries and stories. It's all right. Just even if they're way out of left field, who cares? We're having fun. Any of and all. We're having fun. It's a weird time for all the birds to start heading back, too, because there are a hundred crows outside right now.
Starting point is 00:23:13 High strangenesses are unexplained, unsolved. the paranormal aliens, all of that. And today we get kind of local. I never heard of this place until I started doing my research about it yesterday. Like if you're listening to us in like the Herkimer area right now, you could be to this place in about an hour. Oh. It's called the Bennington Triangle.
Starting point is 00:23:41 No. And it's this mysterious area in Vermont. Okay. Depends on how they, like, you know, the Bermuda Triangle. That's why they call it the Bennington Triangle, because there's this area where strange stuff just keeps happening. And sometimes that triangle starts in Albany, but I think it's a shift in a little right and north.
Starting point is 00:23:59 It's kind of like, yeah, it's kind of like northeast of Albany in that area. Okay, okay. Right up there. All right. There's a lot of weird, creepy forest and mountains and all that stuff out there. Oh, God. Now, it goes back to the native lands, like, you know, the native tribes who lived up there.
Starting point is 00:24:19 And they were terrified of the mountains. Kind of similar. Didn't last week we have a story about like people go in the mountains and they go missing? Am I remembering that correctly? I mean, there's been a couple because you, that's what happens. You go into the woods. Right. Certain things happen.
Starting point is 00:24:34 You go into the mountains. You get missing. So there's this area up in Vermont, just northeast of Albany. And when the Native Americans lived there, they would call it. like the mountain that swallowed people or the mountain that took people. Okay. Because people would go in the mountains
Starting point is 00:24:52 and they wouldn't come back. And you start to get more reports of this during when I, this town Glastonbury is put together because it's a logging town. They start putting together this logging town up in that area.
Starting point is 00:25:07 And I got a couple stories and then I have some audio I'll play for you. So let's start with one of the first recorded mysteries happening up there. in 1897, 40-year-old John Harbor. He was a resident. He was a hunter. He was up in the woods.
Starting point is 00:25:23 While hunting, his brother and family friend were nearby, heard him crying out, I've been shot. Uh-oh. They went and found him. He was under a cedar tree and something had lied his gun right next to him. Like, had set it down right next to him. His gun sat neatly beside him as if it was purposefully put there, but something was wrong. His body was the distance away from where he had been shot.
Starting point is 00:25:55 Something had moved him and put him under a tree. Okay. Or set him down and put a tree on top him so he couldn't move. We then jump forward a little bit. As a stage coach, you know what a stage coach is, traveling through the area. It was rainy. It was the,
Starting point is 00:26:14 what now was known as, I guess, Route 9 in Woodford. It's this area. You're going to hear a reference in the audio called Long Trail. It's the same time? A little bit later. Oh, okay, okay. So, like, not yet turn to the century because they're still on a stagecoach.
Starting point is 00:26:25 Gotcha. But it's a muddy night. They're on a road. And it's raining so hard, the stagecoach driver had to pull over. Stagecoach driver pulls over. And he does that old timey thing where he gets out with his lantern. Sees what's wrong. And it sees giant footprint in the mud.
Starting point is 00:26:42 Nope. Hi-ha! And he can't run. away because it's so muddy and gross. He tells the passengers, all right, let's get out of the stagecoach because now the horses were going crazy. As soon as the passengers get out of the stage coach, something shoves the stage coach over. Oh, geez.
Starting point is 00:27:03 Something huge. The quivering passengers and driver huddled together in the dark in the rain as the creature came into view, a vaguely detailed description from the time described. is roughly eight feet tall and hairy, it went back into the woods and they started calling it the Bennington monster. So here we are now. This is the Bennington Triangle in southwest of Vermont, kind of north of Albany. And now we have more modern disappearances happening, okay?
Starting point is 00:27:35 This is a podcast. I'll post the whole video of this on our Facebook page. Let me start with this clip. This is going to start to be modern disappearances. I think this one's from the 50s, and then it gets us up closer to some modern people who were just in the woods and no one knows where they went. Now, don't get me wrong, there's some creepy woods. People go missing in the woods all the time. Yeah, but when it's a centralized location and it's not, you know, because there's a volcano or something that's going to swallow people up.
Starting point is 00:28:05 Something happening in this. The eerie reputation of the Bennington Triangle truly began to get people's attention and solidify in the mid-20s. century, which is marked by a series of strange disappearances, five in fact, that occurred between 1945 and 1950. It all began with the disappearance of Middy Rivers in 1945. Middy was a 74-year-old experienced woodsman out in these parts. He knew the place like the back of his hand, and he was leading a hunting party near Long Trail Road by Route 9. He moved ahead of the group rounding a bend. and just moments later when the hunters turned the corner, well, there was no more Middy.
Starting point is 00:28:58 He was gone, and no sign of him has been found since. A single rifle cartridge of his was discovered in a nearby stream when they looked for him, but that was the only clue left behind. So Middy, gone. Never seen again. Given Rivers' familiarity with the terrain, his disappearance prompted speculation about unnatural forces at play here. One that was very reminiscent of what the Navy
Starting point is 00:29:23 talked about when they spoke of the mountain eating people whole. So like I said, the natives said the mountain ate people whole. In 1946, 18-year-old Paula Jean Weldon, a student at Bennington College set out for a hike on a long trail one December afternoon during Christmas break. The art student left at 2.30 p.m. wearing a red parka with fur trim and blue jeans, underdress for the cold weather, really. motorists and fellow hikers saw her hitchhiking from the Bennington campus and the driver that picked her up said she told him
Starting point is 00:30:03 she was heading to the long trail off Route 9 close to Glastonbury Mountain once on the trail several people confirmed seeing her and at 4 p.m. Walden spoke to a man on the trail asking how far it extended he told her that it went all the way to Canada
Starting point is 00:30:21 by 5 p.m. the sun had said and then a few hours after that The snow began to fall. Weldon's roommate at the dorm woke up the next day and realized her friend hadn't come home from the night before. She told school authorities, and they immediately launched a search. Her family and the police were then informed. A search was underway, but it proved difficult because the trail was so big. A middle-aged couple then came forward, saying they were walking behind the young girl at about 100 yards away that day.
Starting point is 00:30:59 They could see her ahead, but she disappeared. from view when she rounded a rocky outcropping. When the couple reached the corner themselves, they were surprised to find that Paula was nowhere to be seen. It was close to where Midia disappeared. And just like him, Paula was never seen again. So I want you to remember those two pieces of information there. There's a very specific area, and I'm not going to get it.
Starting point is 00:31:26 And I see that mess. I'm going to read in a second. Yeah, that's awesome. I'm not going to get into like the weirdness of laylines. And you know what? You ever heard of lay lines? So there's like the same. theory that like, I don't know if aliens or whatever built structures and certain things because
Starting point is 00:31:41 the earth has these lines that go through it. And you can look at maps of lay lines and everything suspicious happens along these laylines. There's a theory that this part of Vermont has a lay line through it, specifically right where these people just get swallowed by the mountain. They vanish. You're just tuning in. I'm talking about the Benning.
Starting point is 00:32:04 Triangle. It's kind of our northeast version of the Bermuda Triangle. There have been plane crashes there. There have been random disappearances that I'm playing for you right now. There is a text, I mean, a message in our Twitch chat. I don't know how you found us, Slacker. I'm so glad you did. That's so cool. Because that's the most random simulation thing ever. That's just so cool. We get a message on our chat right now that said, hey, in Beddington, Vermont Native lives in Woodford during my school years. Tons of stuff available about the Bennington triangle. There is an abandoned village in Glastonbury that's pretty cool to hike around. Slacker, I don't know how you found us. You moved out here a few years ago. Perfect.
Starting point is 00:32:43 Well, holler. So you're listening to us and you come from Bennington. Yeah, so he gets it. That's cool. That's the Bennington Triangle. That's neat. So now... Did you ever disappear? Did you? Oh, are you disappeared? Are you one of these people? And it drops you out in Syracuse. Are you? Oh, damn it. What happened? Oh, all right. So now listen. Two areas. there he is, this long trail road, where a random hunter goes missing and they find a piece of his rifle cartridge. This teenager, and again, you could say these are the woods, they go missing.
Starting point is 00:33:16 But it's the way they just vanish. And if you can't, there's no traces of them. Right. If they were, because I was thinking they're getting to a part where they slip and they fall down a hill. Yeah. They would just go look down. You could see a body.
Starting point is 00:33:29 There'd be something. So let's take the woods out of it all together. Let's talk James Tedford, a 68-year-old World War I veteran who was riding a bus. Listen to what I say. Tedford's on a bus. Okay. The bus goes through this area. He vanishes.
Starting point is 00:33:50 From the bus. And people say, we didn't stop. He didn't get off. His luggage was still on the bus. Here's the clip. They're going to say Tedford. That's his name. It's a weird name.
Starting point is 00:34:03 returning to Bennington from a trip to St. Albans. Tedford was reported missing after failing to disembark a crowded bus at its final stop. He was sitting on it with 14 other passengers who testified to seeing him there. When the bus reached its destination, Tetford was just gone. His items still sat on the luggage rack, the bus schedule lay open on his seat, but he was never seen or heard from again as well. Boom. Vanishes off a freaking bus, dude. But how? Nobody knows. He was never seen again.
Starting point is 00:34:41 Like, you can explain the other ones as like people got lost in the woods. This is the dude who was on a bus and vanished. Right. Because he went in this specific area of the Bennington triangle. I got a couple last pieces of audio here. I will post the whole... You can go to YouTube and find hour-long documentaries about this Bennington triangle. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:59 Talk to Slacker in our chat, who apparently grew up there. There have been a couple people... Because obviously now that it's famous, people go explore. Yeah, I'll say, now that it's famous, people go explore. Yeah, I'll say, now. it's probably a more... Like it's a destination. Yeah, yep.
Starting point is 00:35:10 Here's a little bit people will go now. In recent years, locals and visitors have reported a range of unusual things. These include sightings of unexplained lights in the sky, odd noises heard from the woods, and even brief glimpses of figures that vanish when approached. For example, a group of hikers in 2012 reported seeing a series of strange, synchronized lights moving through the trees on Glastonbury Mountain. These weren't like UFOs high up in the same.
Starting point is 00:35:39 sky. And they were in the tree lines, and just as fast as they showed, they moved on and no real explanation was ever given. Another story was from 2008. The crew was hired to rebuild an old fire tower in the area, and it was so remote that they spent the nights camping there. And one of the men, Dave, a regular down-to-earth type of guy, as it's been told, was seen by the other workers in the middle of the night, sitting up and laughing uncontrollably in his sleep, before laying back down. Dave doesn't remember this. He'd never been told by anyone
Starting point is 00:36:19 he had done this before or after, and so he figured they were just goofing on him. But they swore it was real, and to prove it, they filmed him. Showed it to him one morning, he couldn't believe it. So he's just randomly waking up in the middle of the night laughing.
Starting point is 00:36:34 He doesn't know why. Yeah, that's... Random stuff is going on up there. The audio that I played today is courtesy of the YouTube channel, Scary Mysteries. I'll post the whole... video on our Facebook page.
Starting point is 00:36:45 It is the Bennington Triangle. Like I said, you're pretty close to it right now. If you're listening in Herkimer, you're like an hour from it. Like if you wanted to go explore the Bennington Triangle, I'm not encouraging that because people go vanishing from there. Do it and have like a drone follow you or something. Or have a big crew of people with you. Right, and everyone's staying a little low group.
Starting point is 00:37:05 Oh, man. I don't know. That's scary, though. At your high strangers for today, a little bit local as it's right here in our backyard over in Vermont, just northeast of Albany. It's called the Bennington Triangle. What's that? Go get some Ben and Jerry's ice cream and then go get your ass lost in the woods.
Starting point is 00:37:20 Double it up, I like it. Right? Make a while afternoon out of it. Happy Taco Tuesday. Oh, lights on the lake, Taco Bell gift. Was that you two? Was that a Tuesday? A little sneak a dude out there, I mean?
Starting point is 00:37:30 To do it. Taco Tuesday. I was excited. Over there at Lights on the Lake. You get a little Taco Bell coupon when you go through. Then you're good. Lightsonelake.com. And you get.
Starting point is 00:37:42 Tonight's the night you're losing money if you don't go Because you're going to get $10 splash gas And you're going to get a Taco Bell gift A little coupon Yep And you're saving money because it's one of the cheaper nights And honestly If you get a couple of those free taco coupons
Starting point is 00:37:58 Once you use one at the window Once you go get up to the window at a Taco Bell Nine times out of ten If you go, I have another one Do you can I see just Or am I going to have to go all the way back around Either let me go around real quick Or a lot of times you just hand on that, they'll give you another one.
Starting point is 00:38:14 Nice. You can get your doubled up. It's only one per time, but it's not bad. They're just happy to have you there, folks. Absolutely. Make a night of it. Lights on the lake. Dot com.
Starting point is 00:38:25 Time magazine, I would have got, is that town? Time. com has a feature on how to write the perfect holiday card. Oh, cursive. Do you send out holiday cards? We don't anymore. We can't keep up on that stuff. There's too much going on.
Starting point is 00:38:40 No. Yeah. I'm always, I'm a little, not, I'm not jealous of the families that can still send out the cards, but I'm impressed that you have the time and time management skills to do it. I mean, to get a photo, put it together. Yeah, but a lot of people now, different addresses and everyone's moving. Yeah, and then you address all those envelopes. Right, no one wants to buy them forever stamps.
Starting point is 00:39:08 Then you got to get a picture taken. My mother-in-law sent us a Christmas card from next door. Really? She always sends us a Christmas card because it's nice to get mail. Is it of like you guys? No, she sends like her Christmas cards out, but it was like... That's what I mean. Is it a picture of like, are you guys on the phone of it?
Starting point is 00:39:25 It's not even like that. It's like one of the ones Susan said us. It's got a bunch of like a lot going on. But because it was so bulky, it was like $1.80 for her to mail it. And I go, if you 100 yards away, you could have just walked it over there. That would really funny. if included, like, that description of the family and everything that was going on that, you know, TV shows tell you that people are right. But she sent it out to everybody.
Starting point is 00:39:49 So yours was just the generic. Yep, I went on the order to see. Josh and his family. The family's great. Josh is still Josh. He's still, we're working through it. Hey, what does that mean? I'm reading this.
Starting point is 00:40:01 Today is National Christmas Card Day. A last minute reminder that if you're planning on getting out cards, you got to kind of do it today. Okay. Because otherwise, I don't know how, depending on how far you got, I'm mail them. But, uh, so how do you make the perfect Christmas card, Cody? All dogs, no people. They say decorate the envelope. That makes it a little, little fancier.
Starting point is 00:40:23 My mom does that. Does she really? It puts, like, stickers on stuff like that. Oh, deb. Absolutely. Uh, double check the names. Make sure you're sending it to the right people, spelling the right names. Decide on what kind of card do you want to send.
Starting point is 00:40:36 Do you want to send, like you said, the family update? Gotcha. Cody and else are good. Everybody's good. And, uh, done. Or just generic. Oh, yeah. Generic. Hey. Hi. It's Christmas. Hello. Hello to Christmas. Welcome.
Starting point is 00:40:51 They say personalize it. Write a little note maybe in there. Okay. I don't know enough people to write personalized notes. That's a lot. That's a lot. To write little personalized notes? Just have the one generic. Like, you know what? I like how Hambone does it. What does it? Or it's a fun little, little theme. it's like him and in the wifey and some dogs and then a little fun little picture
Starting point is 00:41:13 remember like the one was like the old looking CD the rapper CD and then just everyone gets the fun one and that's just a fun little picture in your mail yep I like that I still like getting mail call me old school I like walking out there and getting mail yeah I do I like getting a card um they say add a surprise oh like what like a gift inside like a gift card or something my aunt used to be the worst she would she would glitter you Oh, I hate glitter. On purpose? Oh, yeah, she didn't care.
Starting point is 00:41:42 She wasn't doing it as a like, ha, ha, ha. But just like, here's glitter, boom, enjoy that. Or those, like, go, what's your birthday? Here's those little, like, you know, little, like, tree plastic pieces. Look, it's a tree. It's a candle. It's a cake. Those little things.
Starting point is 00:41:56 Oh. Yep. Joe said, Joe and our chat asked, are we allowed to wish people Merry Christmas without offending anyone? I'm offended, Joe. I'm offended you, ask. I celebrate happy Honda days. I'm offended you even asked.
Starting point is 00:42:08 don't celebrate Christmas. I say it. I celebrate Honda days. Have you seen those cards that are clearly prank a whole cards? I get, you'll get ads for them now that I'm saying it out loud. Yeah, now you're saying out loud. It's this company that you buy the card. Okay. And you sign it and blah, blah, blah, blah. And you put it in the envelope. Yep. When you put in the envelope, you pull a tab and you seal it and you send it off. So now you get the card. And when you open it, it starts playing a song. You can't stop the song. You can submerge it in water. It'll keep playing like the ding, ding, ding, ding, nonstop.
Starting point is 00:42:46 I'm going to get one. And it's annoying. That's really funny. So when you go, like, you've reached your limit. He's at his limit. When you're at your limit, you, like, they assume you're going to start destroying the card. Yeah. So when you rip it open to get the sound out of it, glitter goes everywhere.
Starting point is 00:43:06 Glitter goes everywhere. It's like the worst call. The worst card ever. I kind of got to get a couple of those, I feel like. That would be really funny. It's just like, and they show you in the commercials. You can't stop the sound in water. You can't do anything.
Starting point is 00:43:19 I know someone we should have honestly signed a couple of those too. Thank you for the follow, Sands, and chat. Those are mean. I hate glitter. I hate it, but that's a great idea. Yeah, it's funny. That is a great idea. And then, you know, just, you know, get it when you get it, I guess.
Starting point is 00:43:35 Sending out, don't worry about being on time. It's National Christmas card day. They'll get it when they get it. You've got a window. Even if it comes second week of January, that means like, all right, you sent it on Christmas, which is still the same thing. It's the holiday season.
Starting point is 00:43:50 You can't celebrate the holidays all season unless you celebrate them all season. I don't think she'll mind if I blow up her spot my sister-in-law one year. You want busy, she's busy. She had two of her kids are in college now, but she had three girls doing everything all the time, all the sports, all the things. Yeah. Sent out all of her Christmas cards.
Starting point is 00:44:10 Once they got sent out, people started messaging her that she'd only sent them the envelope. She had just mailed out envelopes. That's hilarious. And I give her a pass because I'm like, nobody has a busier life. Just set up the envelope.
Starting point is 00:44:27 Thank you for the envelope. Thank you. Thank you. Guys, next Friday. Next Friday. When? Big Fest of his show. You didn't even tell me what it is.
Starting point is 00:44:36 We will be out at Lock One Distilling in Phoenix, New York. It is a VIP list only. I don't know where. But it's really easy to get on that list. Hit me up on the text line. If you're available next Friday morning, you want to come out to a live show at Lock One. Hit me up in the messenger. It's the most fun.
Starting point is 00:44:53 Okay. There's going to be foods and drinks. Mm-hmm. Oh, there's plenty of drinks. They're going to be doing breakfast in a box. Yeah, like, it's a party. They're going to be doing our stupid faces. Yeah, it's a whole thing.
Starting point is 00:45:04 It's our big end of the year. celebration with each other. I would love it if we could all get together. And drink. They're going to have like a mimosa tower. You can do your mimosa flight. You can do all of it. I want the flight.
Starting point is 00:45:18 All of it. 6 a.m. Big night. Want that flight. I'm going to play a song for you now. I want to know if you like it before I tell you who it's by. Because if I tell you who it's by before. I'm going to hate it.
Starting point is 00:45:30 It'll shade your judgment. I shouldn't even have told me that. Okay, okay. But maybe not. Open mind. Maybe not. Open mind. Your opinion.
Starting point is 00:46:28 The beat I like, but I don't like the voices. You don't like the voice. No, I don't like the voices. Cindy, it does sound like an AI song. It does. All right, this is the band people I've met. The man singing and writing the music. Okay.
Starting point is 00:46:46 Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin's kid. Oh, really? Yeah, he's in a band now. Yeah, I don't, it's not. It sounds like cold. Honestly, that's what I was going to say, is it kind of sounds like Cole but it doesn't sound like his voice enough. Like,
Starting point is 00:47:00 and I don't know one of those guys who's like, you're ripping off your dad. No, be that's your genetics. Man, that's just what you do. Like, mammoth is going to sound like Eddie Van Halen
Starting point is 00:47:07 because that's his dad. Yeah, so I'm going to say it's different than how Greta von Fleet sounds exactly like Van Halen. Who? They've never heard of. I don't know who that is. Led Zepplin.
Starting point is 00:47:17 Yeah, yeah, yeah. They've never heard of either, though. No. No, I get it, man. but it definitely sounded the, It's got that sound to it. Honestly, when it started. Moses Martin is his name.
Starting point is 00:47:27 Come on. Okay. Well, the other is Apple. It was Apple. That's right. Okay, yep. When it starts, I thought it honestly was, though you're going to say it was somebody we don't like usually doing a song that Charlie did on.
Starting point is 00:47:40 It's always sunny. It sounded like a Charlie kind of. And I was like, oh, okay. I couldn't remember if you hated Colplay or not. No, I used to really like Coleplay. Now they're really annoyed. I liked a couple of their stuff. songs.
Starting point is 00:47:52 Their first couple albums, Yellow. Bangers. Yeah. And then the last was X and Y. That was the last one I think I liked. And then it was all downhill from there. It's always funny, and I'm not going to blow up my kid's spot to embarrass him on the air.
Starting point is 00:48:05 But my youngest has taught himself guitar, and he's a guitar player now. And he very rarely plays in front of us. I told you he played Banana Pancakes in front of us. Because that's hilarious. But I hear him playing, like, he's learning Coleplay songs. I can hear him upstairs practicing. You have to just. walk up the stairs playing your guitar.
Starting point is 00:48:25 No, that would be the end of it, dude. Open the door and just, alright, come on. He would never play the guitar again. That would be the most cringe thing ever. Oh, what if you, all right, next time you hear it, you go downstairs, turn, do you have like, I don't know how these works, because you have a guitar, do you have to have an amp? Do you, do you have one? He plays acoustic. Do you, though?
Starting point is 00:48:44 I have an amp yet. Okay, you go downstairs, amp. No. That would be so traumatic. I would have met, because I'm thinking, I'm thinking of me. When I was his age, teaching myself guitar, if Tam Tam just showed up singing along. Right? Oh, Josh, you're playing.
Starting point is 00:49:03 No, no, never mind, mom. That's what, that's how I do. Oh, Joshy, you're playing Wonderwall. No. No. Yeah, if Tam Tam two hips wandered in. A tambourine. I would have never touched the guitar again.
Starting point is 00:49:15 So I'm not going to mess with them. We were just excited he played banana pancakes for us once. I liked that. That was impressive. I like bananas I'm thinking. And cold play guitar chords are a little more intricate, so I hear them I hear them practicing them. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:49:29 Oh, yeah, that's, that's gotta be hard. I'm not, I'm not gonna ruin a good thing here. I mean, is there not an Oasis guitar book? I start hearing him play Oasis. What's I'm saying? What if you get that, just slide the book on the door? Here you go, buddy. What's that?
Starting point is 00:49:48 What are that come from? Get out of my house! Give me fire, give me that what I desire. Hey, darned said, he'll have your Mimosa flight, ready for you at 6 a.m. I was kidding a little, but I mean, you don't have to... But okay. I mean, you've never been hammered at a festivist, right? No, no, yeah.
Starting point is 00:50:06 Might as well go out with a bang, let's do. Let's get ripped, bud. I'm going to be how to have a lot. So, I got to rub it in the Eagles' faces and fans of the Eagles a little bit, right? You guys are always high on your hog because your team is always so good, but last night not so much. Yeah. Sorry Eagles fans.
Starting point is 00:50:24 No, that's, they, but the thing is, though, is it's all like self-inflicted wounds that if Jalen Hertz didn't have four interceptions and a fumble, you know what I mean? That seems to be like the problem with the Eagles. It's, you know, a game against the Cowboys
Starting point is 00:50:38 where weird little things happen. So I, for being a Cowboys fan and hating the Eagles, I'm still very high on them. Eagles Chargers had to head last night, game goes, into overtime. Chargers make a field goal. Eagles then get down to field goal range.
Starting point is 00:50:56 And this happens. Hertz keeps, throws big. Wow. And the Chargers win the ball game. Crazy. Nasty pick. Gham Hart tipped it.
Starting point is 00:51:12 And the Chargers go to not. That is the game. Here's the thing, though. At the end of the game to make it so the Eagles we're going to have to going to have to do a fourth down play. And then they got the Chargers to jump. AJ Brown almost made
Starting point is 00:51:33 the most spectacular one-handed catch ever. I've been seeing a lot of those, dude. It was close. Didn't the Chargers have a great one-handed catch a couple weeks ago? Yeah, the gloves helped, but these guys are just so talented. He almost had a crazy catch. But man, it was wild. Just fumble
Starting point is 00:51:49 after fumble. It was like arcade games, to be honest with you. They recovered a bunch. Justin Herbert fumbled probably three times. Textline asking you guys watched some Monsters Inc. I did not, but Cody said he checked it out. I forgot about it till way too late, and I flipped it over. But by then it was like important time.
Starting point is 00:52:09 Oh, so you want to watch the real game? And I'm like, I don't want to watch Mike and Sully run around here. And what's hilarious, though, is that they made Sully on the Chargers. And he had like three interceptions. It was hilarious. Well, listen, it was fun. I like when they do that. I really do too.
Starting point is 00:52:29 I really do too. So now you keep saying it's playoff time for fantasy. What does that mean? The show's fantasy league brought to by East Coast Emeralds is in playoff mode. Because fantasy. I am not the worst. Fantasy wraps up way before like football does, right? Well, yes, because the deal is that the playoffs, you can't do the playoffs because
Starting point is 00:52:48 not every team is in the playoffs. And they start, like, other teams start pulling players and stuff? And once you get towards the very last week, not everybody. Like, once you get to week 18, the Raiders aren't going to be, like, putting Ashton Genty out there as much. Or, you know, Max Crosby, so you don't need their defense if you don't have their defense, which would not be smart. But so you start it like this week. So you've got quarterfinals, week, what is it, 15, 14, 15? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:53:15 And then next week semis and then championships usually. I got a semi for you. I got a quarter. Who's leading our East Coast Emerald's leading us. Me? Oh, definitely me. No, it's not. It was me, Derby Bro, and Malloy. In the bottom?
Starting point is 00:53:31 Bring it up the rear here. We all were 4 and 10. Honestly, not in a braggie way. I don't know the last time I finished 4 and 10 in fantasy sports. That's embarrassing. How are you doing in your Money League? The Money League, I'm in the playoffs. I'm in for our work league.
Starting point is 00:53:48 I'm in there and in the Big Money League. I have a pretty good chance. All right. No, it's Nick, blueberry, bulldogs, Josh's bum ankle, Cousin Jay, another Nick, and jealousy. All right, so it's Nick and then crazy ad who is blueberry bulldog right there. So we're ready to roll here.
Starting point is 00:54:10 I'm excited. We're in the plant. Bye, yeah. Because that belt is sick. It is sick. Wegman's lights on the lake tonight and every night through the holiday season. Get your tickets at lights on the lake.com. Tonight is Taco Tuesday.
Starting point is 00:54:26 You're going to get that Taco Bell coupon. A little chi on your taco. And $10 in splash cash. I mean, come on. Oh, yeah. It's almost like you're throwing money away if you don't go. Mm-hmm. You just are exchanging your $10 for some splash cash, and they're giving you a taco.
Starting point is 00:54:49 Mm-hmm. Although I really would prefer it if they would just bring like 200 tacos and just hand out a taco to one taco per car. Family of four. That's it. You get one. Just one. No, it's one taco. I don't care what you do with it.
Starting point is 00:55:08 You figure it out. You figure it out. One only. And then again, you try to share it with your dog and she doesn't understand how to take one bite. Trumbles the whole thing. Wasn't offering all of it. Ugh. It's on your first show, Elsa?
Starting point is 00:55:23 She's good at Berg. She understands that. You can hold a burg, and she'll go ahead and just take a little bit off there. And there were the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. And lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them. And the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were sore afraid. And the angel said unto them, fear not.
Starting point is 00:55:54 For behold, I bring you good tidings of God. great joy, which shall be all pop people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David, a Savior, which is Christ the Lord. And this shall be a sign unto you. Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in the manger. And suddenly there was an angel, a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying, glory to God in the highest, and the earth. and on earth peace and goodwill towards men.
Starting point is 00:56:29 Say what, say what. Say what. Lights, please. Anyways. I remember when, was it, I don't remember what, 7th, 83 drama, we had to do a monologue, and that's what I did. Because I was like, I can memorize that.
Starting point is 00:56:49 Uh-huh. I did not. No, that's a tough, that's tough. And I didn't even finish it. No, I got like, And that's what Christmas is all about, Charlie Brown. Got like three lines into it. Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 00:57:00 Some of you, some of you don't know Charlie Brown. Right? You don't know what I just did. Shame on you. Shame on you. Some of you think that I just gave a whole passage for the Bible? I do like the text on. What the hell does that have to do with tacos?
Starting point is 00:57:17 It was Linus's speech. Because that's Charlie Brown, a slight Christian undertone. Oh, no, not even. slight pretty. We just put on the best Christmas special of all time. So let's talk Christmas, shall we? Get your lights on the lakes tickets tonight. And one in seven Americans will have more than one Christmas tree, Cody.
Starting point is 00:57:40 Yeah. Yeah, I know a lot of people have a bunch. Now, I guess let's break down. What do you mean, like, full size? And they're all Italians. Yeah, Italiano. You guys like to. That's my living room tree.
Starting point is 00:57:50 You got to have a bedroom tree. That's the kitchen tree. The porch tree. The porch tree, the outdoor tree. Every hallways got a tree. The dog's tree there. We got a mini tree in here that you brought in. Right?
Starting point is 00:58:00 I got a little tree. Let me think about my house. We got the one in the living room. It's also Christmas decorations upstairs of ours. The kids both have their own mini tree. Mm-hmm. Oldest set theirs up. Youngest did not this year.
Starting point is 00:58:13 But the oldest puts their tree upstairs. So I guess I got two. It's like one and like a little mini one. Yeah, it's fun to have a bunch, though. And what do you do? How many are you got? I only, I have the chart. Brown one now because my Christmas
Starting point is 00:58:26 Village, it's where a village meets vast. Remember that square table that you brought for me to use for Cocoa Pops a while back? It's all of that. Good. It's the whole thing. So now I
Starting point is 00:58:42 got to look for just a, I still want a real tree because I'll leave it up forever. I don't care if it was only two weeks. Just a much smaller one because I don't have any room anymore. I thought I had some. But if not, it doesn't matter. I've gone years without a tree. I have an asinine amount of Christmas decorations.
Starting point is 00:59:00 I love it. Everyone tuned into Cocoa Pops this past week and they saw all the Christmas decorations behind me. Yeah. Those aren't spares that I had to, or those aren't ones I had to take around the house or from around the house and put up and put them back. Those were spares that I'm like, oh, I can put these all around me. That's what my whole apartment looks like.
Starting point is 00:59:15 And it's in here, all these decorations are his as well. These are all ones I was like, oh, what am I? There's no room for any of these. There's random decorations hanging in our studio right now. you want to see it. Cody brought those in. And I could have brought in more. Most Americans will have a Christmas tree, but two or more is one and seven Americans say they will have multiple trees in their house.
Starting point is 00:59:35 Not multiple full size, but like I said, maybe little ones, different variations of trees, smaller trees. Yep. Cat tree. Who's got the... This is going to sound phallic. Which one of you's got the biggest tree right now? Because I bet some of you... San Jojo.

Starting point is 01:00:51 Oswego. Stewart's. That's good. I need a bag of those frozen meatballs. You got to get a bag of the meatballs. I already decided. Friday's going to be another busy day. We'll be in a suigo from three to five and then I'll get home and do a house party at seven. Warm us up on a Friday night. Get us into the weekend coming up. But today's only Tuesday, folks. We got a lot of days in between then and there. Although I think it is supposed to be not like a wool weather, but like a snowy on. Okay, that'll be nice. So we'll keep your company all Friday. Any day this week has got snowflakes for a while. So I, uh, I got a, I got a, I got
Starting point is 01:01:23 explain a few parts of this to explain what I knew was going to happen. I guess it's no surprise that if you've got a device with a screen on it, they're going to eventually put advertisements on that screen. They keep trying it with cars, like your dashboards and start showing advertisements. Pisses people off. I mean, they do it at gas stations now.
Starting point is 01:01:44 And they're doing it on smart fridges now. Have you seen these smart fridges like the big screen on the front? I like those. Those are neat. You can turn it off, but it comes by default with the advertisements turned on. You're just sitting there and all of a sudden a large screen pops up
Starting point is 01:01:59 with a lady that's screaming at you to buy Kellogg's? I don't know if they have sound, I hope not. I think they're just sitting there. Oh, ad time. Sorry. Hey!
Starting point is 01:02:08 Do you like to have more chances to win big? Oh. Are hell John Stee? Stanley telling you about his heart health churios and all that? No. I like to eat churios with Phyllis and this bee. I don't know this show,
Starting point is 01:02:21 but I saw the ad. and I knew this was going to happen. There's a show on Apple TV called Plurbius. What did you just call me? P-L-U-R-I-B-U-S. Whatever. Both of whatever you said sounds perfectly fine to me. It is an American post-apocalyptic science fiction television series
Starting point is 01:02:44 created by Vince Gillian, who's made a ton of great shows. Okay. The stars, the character who leads it off, I guess her name is Carol. Okay, that's all you need to know about that. She's Carol. So they made advertisements. And one of the advertisements was just a yellow screen
Starting point is 01:03:04 that says, we're sorry we upset you, Carol. It popped up on fridges, Samsung fridges. Do you see that? So to describe it to you listening, it's the screen for your fridge, and it's an Apple TV ad,
Starting point is 01:03:21 but all it is is a yellow bag, backdrop and in very small letters it says pluribos to whatever the show is, but in big text it says, we're sorry we upset you, Carol. And I saw that ad and I go, someone's going to freak out and it happened.
Starting point is 01:03:37 A woman? Uh-oh. Well, is her name Carol? Her name is Carol. She thought her refrigerator was communicating with her. Oh, no. Well, she's diagnosed schizophrenic. So here's the thing. That sucks. Thankfully, thankfully, she's like, okay, I'm having a psychotic episode.
Starting point is 01:03:56 She went and checked herself into a psychotic, a psychiatric hospital. Because she's like, my refrigerator's communicating with me. And they had to figure out, no, it's this stupid pluribus commercial on your Samsung TV. All that. Like that, I mean, not, oh, sue them, but she shouldn't have to pay anything if it costs her anything to have that happen. That's like the downside of this putting ads every. everywhere, you know? I mean, it's not that show or Apple's fault, but it is.
Starting point is 01:04:29 It definitely is. But it is, you know what I mean? Like, if you're sitting at your house and suddenly your TV said, sorry, we upset you, Cody. Yep. Like, you're not even schizophrenic. You're probably a little stone, but you'd be like, what?
Starting point is 01:04:42 Huh? Okay. Oh, it's okay. It's okay, Fridge. I would be like, nah, this is a cool, dude. Nah, Fridge, I ain't mad at you, bud. Wait, wait, what? What that mean?
Starting point is 01:04:53 Did that mean you start to pile it? No. No, no, no, no, no. We're good, man. Who said I was upset? Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, bro. Here, hit this. What are we doing?
Starting point is 01:05:03 Why are we even getting upset? There you go. It's okay, Fridge. You're fine, all right? Fridge, I love you, man. Why are we even getting upset? How'd you do that? Good morning.
Starting point is 01:05:19 Hey, you need fuel. You can swing by Stewart's on Friday. I'm just doing radio stuff now, you know? It's playing a film. Let's just do it. Get crazy in here. Three to five, up in Oswego. We will be at the Stewart's location that we were at last time.
Starting point is 01:05:36 What was at? Utica Street. Yep. Yep, right over. If you're heading Oswego, go over the first bridge. Yep, right there on Utica Street. We'll be there from three to five. But as always, stewards is doing their holiday match campaign right now.
Starting point is 01:05:47 Every penny you donate, or dollar or $10, they will match. They got a cow. His name is Flavor. We spent four and a half hours with Flavor the cow online. last Friday. Yep. It was a highlight of my week. I mean, and also, though, if you are the person that took,
Starting point is 01:06:04 what was the chicken's name? Remember, she said they had a chicken. Oh, yeah, I forgot about chicken. Flavor and something. Damn it. Anyways, why they stole it? If someone accidentally may have taken it home, we need chicken costume back. I thought it would pop back up if I said it.
Starting point is 01:06:22 We need Flavor the cow's friend. Packer? No Is that not it? Was it? Pecker the chicken? No? Flavor and cocky? No?
Starting point is 01:06:41 Hey, Packer's here. Flavor and savor? Was it saver? It might be saver. I really don't remember, man. I did tell Flavor. I said we used to have a K-rockadile. Yeah. It was murdered. Let's see.
Starting point is 01:06:57 What? I'm going to type of Stewart's chicken. It's chicken. Flavor and savor, Zippy says. All right. Flavor and saver. Oh, no, sorry. It's fresh.
Starting point is 01:07:06 Oh, flavor and fresh. So if you may have taken. You got fresh in your house. You bring fresh back. It also had an older lamb mascot. Stewards did? Perky and patches. Oh, I love Stewart so much.
Starting point is 01:07:23 I want the lambs. We need more mascots. We need more mascots. And shout out. Not to take away the magic. Yeah. But shout out to. the workers who were as flavor?
Starting point is 01:07:31 Because they gave it their all. What? I don't want to ruin the magic. I don't want to ruin the magic. I don't want to ruin the magic. It wasn't a real cow, walking around. It's a real cow. Asking for donation.
Starting point is 01:07:47 We just let it inside next to the ample fritter samples. No, we let those employees that were doing the flavor gimmick. You did a great job on Friday. Yep. Look forward to seeing you this Friday, 3 to 5 up, Swego. Well, somebody in this room might need to hear this story as snow can be considered in assaults. If you throw snow at somebody.
Starting point is 01:08:10 What? This happened up in Canada. Dude got mad at his neighbor. So when he saw his neighbor outside, he cranked up a snow blowers or blowing his snow all over him. That's pretty funny. He allegedly spun around and sprayed the man with snow. cops say he was not hurt, but they can press charges for assault, I guess. And you got to be careful of that just because it was a snowblower.
Starting point is 01:08:36 It's on the ground. Well, and you'd be picking up dirt and rocks and all that stuff. You got to watch out for that. That's assault, brother. Not just opening your door and tossing a snowball at your neighbor that hits him right in the side. And listen, he was cool about it. And now you know. Now you know.
Starting point is 01:08:50 Now you know, look a suck. Or you toss a snowball. You toss it at the door? No, I opened. You're at the main door. Yeah, and my door. And I was like, oh, I'm right here, and I still had my boots on.
Starting point is 01:08:59 So I was like, I'm not going to hold a snowball while I take off my boots and then walk over to the sidiglass door. So I just opened my door. The door opened, and then I went, boop! So I'd like this whole motion, so it was open. One second to swing. So one second for him to walk up the two stairs from the mailbox and me to go with this motion. Boink. Just like that.
Starting point is 01:09:20 So it was like the perfect storm of right another side. He said, I'm sorry about that. Neighbor, that I just threw a snowball at you. That's assault, brother. God, he hadn't laughed them like a wig. I know. It's just that's your life. Yep, that's your life.
Starting point is 01:09:32 He also thought it was funny. We will roll into your 90s at 9. Okay, Delamitri. With a little better than Ezra. It would have been weird if you did do that. I think I've done it once. So now I tried every once in a while. I think a long, long time ago I nailed it.
Starting point is 01:09:46 We will roll into your 90s and I was some better than Ezra. Which one's now? Which one's now? We'll play some basketball. Yeah, we'll do the... Throwback teams, those best-up teams. Yep. Those are always fun.
