The Show - REBOOTED

Episode Date: July 28, 2025

Lots to recap from an amazing Reboot! The serial butt-sniffer has been captured. What are some of the best underwater video game levels? Plus so much more on a Mondee!

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 some way constitutionally to do away with it, I would. Ah, God. I could use another day.

Yo. One day it's not enough to recover from that reboot, bud. Woo. Yeah, that was a... Oh, my goodness. That was a little bit... Holy cow. Hold on.

I just... I guess it's not an emergency mail. I can wait. All right. Go ahead. I can finish it out. No, because it's only top of the hours. I just got to let people know.

Yeah, obviously it is. Oh, hoi. Hey, Rock Time was Saturday 9. Oh, my God. Hello, how are we doing? Are we recovering? We hydrating? Get a good drink.

Get a good drink. There it is. Yup. Yeah. What'd your Sunday look like? Were you just motionless? Just clean it up some more punch stuff. All right.

And then, yeah, that was it. That was it. I passed out, took a nap. Right in the middle of the afternoon. And I think, I feel like I woke up and it had been like hours. Yeah. It may have possibly been hours. Yeah

It was a good one You ran a couple hours and then bed You ran your punch booth So you had more physical activity On Saturday than I did Mine was a lot of standing around in the heat But yesterday I I just slept

And then we had a barbecue Over a cousin Jays for a little bit With Miami Danny Yes you did Yes you did She got herself a home-cooked meal Oh Yeah it was a lot of running around

I knew I was gonna I said I wasn't gonna And I knew I was gonna What do what that I wasn't going to be over by my booth as much, that I didn't need to, that it was going to just kind of be able to run itself for the most part. And what you did, it absolutely did.

The ladies over it that were running it killed it. I don't know what's happening right now. What? When we talk, my meters are jumping like it's got a mic, but there should be no mic in there. Mike where? See here? Yeah.

When we talk, that shouldn't be a thing. That's not a thing. Interesting. Let me look behind there. Oh, I fix it. I fix it. Never mind. It was a thing that I could fix.

All right. Well, maybe we had a secret microphone we didn't know about it. How was everybody doing today Monday back from the reboot? What a hell of a day, man. It was so far. We'll recap it throughout the morning. Yes. Just a hot-ass day that I don't think we were all prepared for the level of heat and humidity we were going to get that day.

No. We got through it. Yeah, I was very impressed. We did our best to squirt you guys with squirt guns. Yep. I'm sure it'll come off as biased, but we'll dispel some rumors, I'm sure. More rumors. Just if you saw any of the things about just like people dropping all over, which they weren't.

EMT's lack of time getting it. Oh, I'm not focusing on any of that. No, they got there real fast. It took 10 minutes to get to, no, it didn't. That was like three or four comments. 95% of the comments have been a glowing and positive. Yeah, that's what I'll focus on. It was a great, amazing day.

Great. It drained your body of energy. It was that kind of heat. But we toughed it out. We got through it. Security was great at handing out just endless free cold water all day. People were drinking. It was a good, good day.

Monday after the K Rockathon reboot, thank you for joining us. We were interviewing with the bands. They were all great. Everybody stopped by and hung out with us. Yeah, I don't know. I don't be biased, but set it off was the coolest group of dudes ever, I think. They are, they are cool dudes. They seemed like they were, not that anybody did.

didn't seem like they were generally interested, but they seemed like they would be, like, actually interested in being friends. You know who's the nicest guy? I think they were all nice. Kevin from Candlebox came and found me several times throughout the day to say he enjoyed talking to us. Oh, I talked to him a couple times.

Did you? Backstage back to that fun little area. Yeah, he's a cool dude. You were talking about how much he liked the vibe and how cool, like, the little, cool little rock basketball. Yeah, he was just a phenomenal guy. They were all just so nice.

That was one of the best. best concerts I've ever been to easily. And I call me biased all you want. But I don't know another one that I've tried to watch as much music content. I mean, I could hear it all right from the punch booths. I never missed anything.

But every band from start to finish by the time they were done, I was like oh, that's it? Yeah. What I did What I did, what I love about set it off, though, is they have to do that thing where they've got to put on

There are stage personas. Yes. So, like, they talk to us and they sound like, guys, they would fit right in with us. Like, they're wrestling nerds. They're just, like, there's Max and then Cody. Yep. I forget the guitarist name. Whatever, but Cody, yes.

Is a song and dance man like me, like he loves musicals and stuff. Yep. And then Max is literally a wrestler. Yeah, he's cool. So him and Cody could have talked forever. Yep. But then when they go to get on stage, they got to put. on there, we got to do our rock faces

and they go and they go and do it. And they go do it. Yeah, it's fun. I like it. I like to see that. It's cool to watch people snap into character. Yeah. I mean, like, hell of a show. Like wrestlers. Exactly right. Exactly. So. It was just great. It was, I don't know. We'll be talking a lot about it. Yeah, I said.

I could go on and on all morning. It was a big part of our weekend, folks. It was the best. Everybody was staying hydrated, hopefully. That was good. Yep. Was it set it off? Who was switching the drummer and the singer? I didn't see that.

Who was switching the drummer and saying they were? Yeah, no, when Max sang at the end, was it the end? Oh, I must miss that. And Cody hopped on drums. Oh, that's cool. That was awesome. Those are great guys. I can't wait to see them kind of blow up.

They got a great sound, man. They really do. Well, we are going to be giving away tickets to enchanted forest. Bap, ba, ba. Bap, ba, ba. Bap-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ha. You're getting up there, bud? You got plans to get up there, I mean.

We're telling you how to do that. We'll be doing a text contest for Enchanted Forest, but don't worry. You still got lots of summer left, folks. Hello, everybody. Sorry, we're a little mismatched in the markets. I had to chat over words. Like my testicles. Oh, well, bud.

The other one's coming in real nice, though. It's like a tomato-on-a-fine. The one came in real good, but yeah. It needs a little more. It's got to get a more sunlight, I think, down there. That makes more sense. I just kind of hang the one out the window more. Happy Monday, happy first day back to business after the reboot.

Oh, boy. We're all dragging a little bit, but we'll get through it, man. At least you're feeling a little safer if you're out in California, as they've once again arrested the serial but sniffer. Yeah, he's sneaking into, no, not here. Not here. I ain't got no handcuffs, bro. They caught you, bud.

You're the East Coast Butsniffer. Oh, oh, oh, sorry, sorry. That's my, yeah. We, uh, we, uh, we'll get him out. We'll get him out. You know, like, we're at, we have the funds. Uh, a clothing store and they've got those racks of clothes that we used to hide in his little kids. You'd go in there and hide in them.

You know where I'm going with this, right? My man would climb in there. And then as the ladies will walk by, just, and then peek back in. And then, whoop. And then, whoop. Did I just... What was that?

But you don't suspect that anything because you... There's nobody around here. Especially because you would not expect... A grown-ass man to be hiding in the clothes. Got that dog in him, Bob. He got that dog in him. His pee-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-hout-a-kkk... I got a question.

I mean, obviously, you know... What do I say here? Like, I know your rights mean that you can't be locked up forever for being a butt's Yeah. But if this is more, if it's happened more than once, you're, there's no rehabilitation for this fella. It's,

I don't know what you do with him. Yeah, no, you have to register him as a, not as a, yeah, I was a offense. That's a sex offense. No,

yeah, I was gonna say, but like, there's different levels, I guess, just, put them away. But it's also,

I also feel like, we ain't getting him off of, like, that's his drug. Yeah, but, his butt sniffing. Well,

I get it, but not, no, sure. But you, you, you, Consensual.

You got, yeah, yeah, you can't just, you know. This guy is just whoop, peeking in and out. Mm-hmm. He eventually worked his way into the women section, found a loan shopper, and started giving some of the same behavior, getting close to her, uncomfortably close, crouching down as if he was trying to buy something or check something out or look at something. So I've heard up to 20 women, you know, and what's happened to them, and they're all scared

and I know the feeling. Right. Like, I don't know what you do with this guy. I don't. We out in public. He's a madness. Put him in jail for a little while. But I don't think he's going to learn.

Just to let jail dude sniff his butt. Oh, yeah. Eye for an eye kind of situation. Yep. I don't know how you rehabilitate a serial butt sniffer, dude. He's got something else going on. Got wires crossed in there. A little coat of harambe.

Well, guys just peeking around. And then he leaned down to pretend like, oh, I missed. Oh, let me just. Oh, I dropped this. If you guys aren't regular listeners of the show on K Rock, let me bring you into my world. More so my mother's world than my world. But Nanny is my grandmother.

She is my last living grandmother. She, I believe, let me do quick math here. Had my mom when she, okay. I think she's 80? She's over 80, right? I don't know my mom's in here. She's got to be over 80. She's in her 80s.

And she's got a little bit of the dementia. kind of trickling around in her brain. Not remembering all of her grandbabies now. But saw her at the picnic. She had a cousin Jay to have a cookout, had his annual luau over at the house Saturday. So let's go back. No, Sunday.

Sorry, yesterday. Yesterday I was over cousin Jason. Got you. The weekend does not make it. She's 83. All right. So apparently, you had a little bit of the dimension there. You know the story where she slammed down the table,

wants a good home-cooked meal for my mother. I do it on the regular. with all of the things now. Just, no matter what. So here's my mother's latest little game. We all met Jesus

at the reboot on Saturday. Did we not? It was the best thing ever. That picture that Tom took is so good. Shout out to the fellow who's dressed as Jesus at the K. Rockathon reboot.

Then he left for a while. We didn't even see him. And he just kept reappearing. So here's something that my mother told me. I don't know if she's done it yet, But Jesus was hanging out of the reboot all day Saturday. He was meeting people. And at the end of the show, he crowd surfed over the barricade.

He might have done a bunch of times. I don't know. But that's just when I was standing there. I saw Jesus coming over the barricade. Yes. And he landed next to me. And I go, come here. And I got a photo with him.

I don't know how he was in all those clothes. I get a photo with him. I put it on my Facebook page. Apparently, Cody. Oh, no. What? No, go ahead. Apparently my grandmother this week.

Oh, boy. Has been telling my mother every day that Jesus is going to return. It's been a thing this week, I guess. Don't. Dude. That ain't it, dude. So now my mother has a photo of me at a concert with Jesus that she's toying with showing my grandmother.

I go, mom, you can't show nanny. If she thinks Jesus is returning and then literally a photo of one of her grandbabies, she doesn't really know my name, but one of her grandbabies. Show her a series of K. Rockathon pictures. Say, look, at Josh, you worked a concert this weekend. They put on a concert, look, and just show a bunch and just there's one of them, and then just keep going and don't say anything. Just see the reaction.

My mom was like, your grandmother has been saying all week that Jesus is coming back. I'm going to show her this photo, and I go, mom, I don't think that's a good idea. idea. That might do something to my grandmother. I don't know. That might break your brain. No, it's one of those where, again, my dad had early onset dementia, but he didn't have it like nearly anywhere close to anything when he passed. Yeah.

But still he would, you know, tell the same story, you know, the same, whatever. Sure, sure, sure. And there were times where I would mess with him for my own sake. Yeah, yeah. Because when you're the, like the, I don't know, primary cancer. Air gift or whatever BS crap. Sometimes you've got to have a little one for you when you deal with all the other things and you don't say a damn word. I get it.

If my mom wants to show her the photo of me with Jesus, that's fine. I was going to say, so for her. But also, Nanny's kind of in on it. Like, she knows that she's not all with it anymore. Yeah. But she's always been hilarious and she's still hilarious. Like I told you when I saw her yesterday at Cousin J's. I walk past her and she goes, hi, I don't know.

And like she just, she knew I was a J. Yeah, I know who, I know you're... She knew who I was. She said Joey, but... Keep moving. It wasn't Joey, but that was enough. That was enough. She could have, though, with all the weight loss,

she could have thought you were Joe. Maybe, but regardless, she's in on the joke. She thinks it's funny that she can't remember things. But my mother says, yeah, I got it had a little fun with it. So just... So now... I think my mom is just holding on to that photo of me.

I think my mom is just holding on to that photo of me with Jesus for when she's got to get my grandmother off the... ledge or something. I don't know what that's, it's a weapon in the toolbox at this point. Yep. It's a nice one to have locked and loaded. I will tell you too, dude. So I've always said that shower after the reboot or the K. Rockathon shower is the best shower ever. I think many of you got to experience that on Saturday, right? Yeah, bro. For those of us that have worked K Rockdown for many, many, many years, we're always sweaty and gross at the end of it. And getting home and taking that shower is the best. It's cold shower season for me anyway. But I, I,

I, this was the first time all year, I clocked her on the right all the way. What does that mean? Full right. Oh, cold? Full right. As far as it could go. And I just, I just stood there. So, dude.

Dude, can I talk to you guys for a second? Because this is new to me. You guys have been doing this for a long time. I've never taken a stone shower before. Oh, yeah. Here's how my night went. I left K Rockathon reboot. And my family had gone, they do an annual like Mets trip.

And I just couldn't go this year because of the reboot. So my whole family was at the Mets game. There was the fireworks. I guess it was just really cool. Like, I don't know if it was the Hottoshoneys or whatever, but they were doing like a dance and there was fireworks. Whatever, it looked cool. Right at the Mets stadium.

Yeah, it was really cool. That's cool. The video I saw of it. So they're still there. So no one's home. I'm home with just Fred. Yeah. And I'm like, all right, Fred.

Let's go outside for a little bit. So I took Freddy outside. I had a couple pulls off of this pre-roll, dude. and I got in the shower and it took that K Rockathon shower to an 11. Yeah. That was the most relaxed,

best-feeling shower I've ever taken in my entire life. It really is. That's why I'm starting to think I'm molding you in the shadow of myself as the, on a half-baked, the John Stewart stoner,

where you ever seen a $20 bill, you've ever seen a $20 bill on this. Everything is bad or high. All of just the normal every day. I got to go down the block to do. I'll come. Hold on one second. Yeah, right?

See, Katie took our advice. She said she had clean sheets on the bed. That's the best. You get home from a K Rockathon. You take that shower. You climb into a bed. It was awesome. And then you get out and rip an even fatterbong once you're all clean, bro.

I can't have smoke in the house. But I did it because it was just me and Fred outside. I'm like, I'm going to see where this goes. You know. It's just. Queen Nick says it would have been awesome if it was a missing tent. Yes, that would have been cool. I mean, it's another cost to the event.

I thought Monster usually had one. They had one last year because I stood in it for a second last year. They didn't this year. Because I saw a lot of people commenting, you should do like an adult slash splash pad. I saw that. Let's think realistically. On paper, that sounds awesome.

Yeah. Add a K Rockathon. In the back, though? Well, people are just, as the day, progresses and they get drunker and drunker and now there's a giant slippery pad you know what I'm saying? Oh yeah the insurance part well as I agree

that would be rad that would be so maybe like a misting tent I don't think anybody expected the heat to be what the heat was so we weren't ready for that but yeah Malloy showered then play PG8 to 1 a.m. It was awesome. Fuzz had some post K Rockathon Taco Bell dude

dude that shower was incredible I uh I didn't eat it was too hot for me to eat, you know, I didn't eat after. The only thing I ate was, um, it's one of those fun things, some ladies chicken. So I didn't want to wait in line. Tell people about that. He just ate some lady's chicken, guys. We were all back. Not some lady. She was one of Stacy's people. Everybody backstage is all kind of like friendly friends. Yeah, they worked with us. We had a food truck for ourselves and, uh, I went to leave to go and get a little, little chicken. And as I was going to stand up there,

there were not a line, but like three or four people. Yeah. And I don't even know the poor woman's name. But she went to stand up and she stood up with her thing. She goes, I don't even know why I got this. I'm not hungry. I don't want this chicken. I'm going to throw it away.

And I look and I went, I'll eat your chicken. I'll eat your chicken. The Cody Leacy story coming to lifetime. I like your chicken. I'll eat your chicken. She goes, I didn't even touch it. I just got it two seconds ago. I'm not hungry.

I just wanted to get something. But I can't. I'm not. Yeah, yeah. I'll eat. And I get. All of your tricker. And I said here, I gave her my food ticket, said here in case you do want it.

And then all of a sudden, a little while, here you go, and give me that. Yeah. And then I stood there like a monster. I didn't want the sides because it got the potato salad. So I stood over the trash can with a piece of chicken and just ate like a cave, man. Brianna is right. Briotta said Fair Deli had the best tennies and fries. I agree.

You got the tending, you were a tending, man. I went over. And I was like, I was looking at their thing. And I go, I just, because I literally just seen Jojo and Maloy and everybody. their table, somebody over there had tenders. Yeah. And I go to Fair Deli, I go, I want to get the tender and fries combo. She's like, oh, the fries only come with the burger.

And I go, whatever it costs, I want the fries and the tenders. So she gave me a thing at fries and a thing of tenders. I'm a Fair Deli diehard, guys. It has been my obsession for months, man. No, it really has. Oh, was Brianna with the tendons and fries. Yeah, I saw your tennies and fries. And I was like, I want to get tennies and fries.

And they just hit. That's all I ate all day. Since the, not this past spring, but the last year's spring, when you did that truck event where they had the food truck set over at Tracy Road. Yes. That was when I first experienced them because I got that big MFer of the modstick. Yeah, dude. And it blew the balls all of my pants. Ferrandalli's crazy.

I love that spot. I love that spot. That's the. I think the only thing I've ever had from them. Joe, you were behind me in line. I was clueless to you, Joe. Anyways, it was fantastic. It was fantastic.

I will say, since we're talking about it, here they're in the Twitch chat. We're talking to crowd surfing. Yes. And this is the one take I'm going to have that's not going to be something you guys like. I'm not a fan of the crowd surfing. Really?

I'm not a fan of it. It made me stressed out. I feel like some people were really being selfish with it. I felt really bad for security. Shout out to Eric. Eric and the whole crew up there. Yes. They're usually. Just non-stop catching people non-stop. And you guys can get, you can disagree with me. You can get mad at me. Maybe it was the dad in me. Maybe it's the old man in me. I don't know what it was. Yeah. I'm glad you guys had fun. Yep. I just did not enjoy it. It made me very stressed out. because first of all, first of all,

if you're going to crowd surf, you can do it like twice. I stood there for nothing more, and he's a show broke because he took a photo with me. Yeah. The guy would get over the barricade, run right back, get back on the crowd. I mean, I literally counted 15 times this guy crowd surfed. Yeah, no, that's the one, that was the one thing that I will agree with you there.

Because I'm all a lot of crowd surf all day, whatever. But that's the one. Like, when you don't need to do it 30 times. I know. Like, you feel like you're just here for the crowd surfing. Like five times? You're good? Yeah.

You know what I mean? Like that give you a handful of times, you're good. But there was a couple that. During nothing more, it wasn't as prevalent the whole day. I didn't see a lot of crowd surfing. I mean, no, but that's usually, it was nothing more. It was the headliner. Everyone got it all out.

And then nothing more takes the stage. And these security guys. Yep. They didn't get a break for the entire set. No, no, they did not. But they, fellas. They at least are equipped for that. Those are the, that is the crew that is equipped for it.

Can I talk to you, fellas? But where I think we will agree is this part. You've got to be aware of your size. Yeah, man. Yeah. Yes. Crowdsurfing, and this is not picking on you for being bigger. No.

Shout out to my big boys. No, no, no. Even I didn't do it because I was still like, no one wants 180 pounds of me. trying to, you know, hold up and pass me around. Even 180 is light. I saw a couple of my guys. That's what I'm saying.

I'm not heavy compared to... I weigh 205 pounds. I'm not getting up there. A lot of you fellows were in the threes, and you're trying to jump up there. Not everybody is there to lift you over their heads the entire show, okay? No. No.

There was one guy I saw that it in one of the security guards was like, bro, like, come on, man. I get to go and have fun, but like, bro, you're like, whoa, and he goes, dude, you're huge. This is the reason we do it at Chevy Court is because we can't get away with that stuff at the amp. We can't have mosh pits. We can't crowd surf at the amp.

We do it at Chevy Court because we can kind of have those old K rockathon vibes. Yeah. We were having our fun, but you don't need to go crouch surf 30 times. You don't need to crouch if you're 300 pounds. Yes. The kids, I was so mixed because the day. Dad in me is like this does not seem safe. I love it.

But also it was like, that's a cool experience. As someone that has crowd surfed numerous times, that was the perfect crowd for it. I'm sure, yes, some, you know, the people get dropped and all that. But crowd surfing, for the most part, it sounds crazy to say, is usually pretty safe.

Yeah, and I got to give credit to the first four or five rows. Yeah. Because y'all spent most of nothing more hoisting people over your heads. That's the one part that I don't like about crowd surfing is that you end up having, wherever you are, you end up having to spend most of the show making sure that those people

have the best time. Yeah. You have to be turned around and catching, you know, 200 pound dudes. So yeah, when I see the kids up there, I'm like,

that's a really fun memory they're going to have forever and their parents are having fun. Yeah. My dad brain is like, okay, please want to be careful, but they were having fun. Kids and like the light,

light people and like the girls and stuff, that's easy because you're going to have to turn on, you just go up, yep. and just keep acting like a beach ball. But it's just one of those words. When the dude dressed like a whiskey bottle is going up for the 20th time, it's like fella. Yeah. Relax.

Or take your turns. Just different. Yeah. Yeah. Take your turns. Give it a break first. Give it a break. That was my only negative take of the whole day.

Well, and some of you were sweaty as out. So gross. Don't make everybody have to put their hands on you. I know. They all got to touch you and stuff. It got ramped up. It got ramped up at the end. Maybe there's like little tickets.

Everybody gets two crowd surfs. Here, you get to go twice. Hand it in and then you can do your two. You can get a couple of other people if you want. I say, throughout the day, you get five to ten. You get five to ten throughout the day? Throughout the day.

Okay. You got five to ten. You want to save them all for the end. That seems fair. Okay. I watched a couple of guys do five to ten crowd surfs in like one nothing more song. No, that's what I mean. There was one that I'm picturing the one because I'm, whatever.

You have fun. Yeah, yeah. But it was just like you said. it was like a hamster wheel. He would get set down in like 30 seconds later. He would turn. And I'm like, what are we doing?

Bro, that's at least your 20th time. Is this like a fetish for you? Like you want people touching your body as you fly around? Yes. Showgirl Kay was up there a bunch of times, but she weighs like 30 pounds. That doesn't bother me.

You just pass it like this. Yeah. Got to go. Yeah. Kay went up there a bunch, but she's like, yeah, like she's like 30 pounds. And they just kind of like one arm.

You could move her around. But anyways, be safe. Have your fun. I was getting stressed towards the end as it seemed like a lot of people were crowd surfing to an excess. They were getting it all out. And again, just like last year, despite people

online saying things, zero fights. I didn't say any fights. Saw zero confrontations. Just again to further continue the thing that country shows and stuff like that is where the fights actually are. Yeah, the fights happen to country shows. That's a rock guys, you can stand front

center at a rock show. Yep. Like you would have a reboot and everybody's helping everybody. Yep. We're getting you water. We're getting you hydrated. We wanted you to have fun. Everybody was good. I loved it. It was the most positive experience, man. Very positive. Everyone was so nice.

Shout out to security. You guys were, I don't know what your backs feel like Sunday and today. Yep. Just hauling bodies over that barricade all and nothing more. We appreciate y'all. Shout to the EMTs. Everybody was doing great. Working the hardest they could. We appreciate it. Thank you for surviving the K Rockathon reboot with us. You didn't.

Am I a ghost? Am I in a coma right now? Yes. I knew it. Yes. I mean, I know that I've been in a coma this whole damn time, but... That's why you saw Jesus. He wasn't there.

Oh, no. Don't get me going, bud. My brain can't handle all that. We appreciate all your support and love on Saturday. A great event, obviously we can talk about it throughout the morning. Although I feel like in other news is an intense. trying to... Did Mario and Princess Peach

break up and Nintendo was telling us? Did you always assume that Mario and Peach were a couple? Mario risked his life to get Peach from the castle, right? Yeah, that's what I thought you had to say. Like, that was his princess. Is there, is there... Who's, like, who's her dad?

If she's a princess, is there a prince? Is there... You know what I mean? Is there somebody she's supposed to marry? I guess... I don't... Tell me she didn't get... Stockholm Syndrome once and not bang King Cooper?

Oh, come on. Well, according, like, I guess Nintendo today puts out like a newsletter or whatever. Yeah. And for some reason, it just says in this recent newsletter, Princess Peach and Mario are good friends and can help each other out whenever they can. Wait. Did it, all right, so did you see the movie? Did they talk about this at all?

Yeah, but I don't remember the movie. Did they try to be like he's just a, you know, like they're a big friend group? And she needed saving? Did Mario get friends-owned? He's been risking his life for 40 years, and she's like, I don't think we should just, we're just friends. We're just doing my best friend.

He's gotten a little of that snizz at least once or twice, right? Dune says they were in a situation. I like that friend-zone situation. Rain says they got caught at a Cole play concert, so it's getting awkward, yeah. Or Luigi and Princess Peach got caught. Yep.

According to a recent update in the Nintendo Today app, quote, Princess Peach and Mario are good friends and help each other out whenever they can. There is no word on why Nintendo is making this announcement, given that we've always assumed Peach and Mario were a couple until now. Da-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na. Oh. I used to hate that.

As a kid, when you'd get to the castle board. Because everything else would be, did it, did it, did it. It'd be happy. And then all of a sudden. But we can all agree underwater music was the best music, right? Which, which one? Three or one? I'm thinking the one with the little squid guy that the white squids.

Oh, yeah, I mean, but the... Do do, do, do, do do do do do do. Yup. Do do do do do do do. Yeah. Like, when I tell you, I like it. I could relax to this. Like, you know how when you go to like a spa, they have peaceful spa music on?

This could be my peaceful spa. Ah music. I love 8-bit video game music, man, from Nintendo and stuff. Chip tunes. It was the best. I love it. I just like them. You could go through any of them.

Like, yeah, love it. Also hated once you got down to a minute. And it would, that's why, you know, like, people are like, why do everyone these days has, you know, anxiety? All these 30 or 40-year-olds all have anxiety. Why did it so much anxiety? Like you're going to say, the music, when you got a minute left, it ramps up. Because it would be like one minute till you die! Once this time's up, you die!

Alright, let me ask you another question. Since today's gonna be hot, Yeah. What's your favorite underwater music from video games? Do you know this one? What? I was to say Donkey Kong, perhaps. The Donkey Kong one?

They're swimming around underwater. Let me ask you if anybody else remembers this legendary underwater music. Is this, yeah, Nidg. I was to say the first, first Ninja Turtle, second, whatever one it is. Yep. Underwater Ninja Turtles level, dude. This, um, Sonic. Yeah, I want to do the Sonic one because Cousin Jay is right.

Yep. Not only were you running out of time, Sonic was about to die in front of you unless you got him oxygen. Again, why do you guys all have anxiety? This generation is, what's going on? He's 30 to 40-year-olds. What's happening? Oh, we almost watched our heroes. die on our games if it wasn't, if we didn't do something about it.

Yep. I don't have any video. A, a, a, you just killed your childhood. Yep. It's a cartoon character. Yes, you'd hear him like, boop, boop. Like in there, too, where he was gasping for air. And then he does that thing where he like, burr, you go, oh, he died.

Did you have, what was your Donkey Kong underwater? Yeah, yeah, where he's riding around on the, like, the sword fishing stuff, man. Let me see this one. Oh, dude, what a tune. Yep. Yep. Oh, all of Donkey Kong. The whole soundtrack.

But this, dude. I was too old for this. This is more your era. This is right. Oh, man, I played Donkey Kong forever. Just the best. Like, you know what today is a perfect day for? It's going to be 98 degrees or whatever.

It's just sitting in your basement playing old video games today. That might be the vibe. That's why I love that red cartridge so much that I bought because there's like 500 games. I play one for two minutes. You know what I mean? Listen to the opening music, play it for two seconds, then move on. It's the best. What is?

But Donkey Kong, I would play for a while. I've got that still. I've got that. Was that Donkey Kong country? Yeah. Oh. Yeah. Man, like that whole album was just so good.

Like everyone was a banger. Ooh, what's this one? This is a game that all took place underwater. Oh, who knows this one? Is this the dolphin game? Echo the dolphin bun. It's impossible. I had the Super Nintendo version.

There he is. There's Echo. This is so peaceful to me. It was so fun for a little while. Did Aladdin have an underwater level? Oh, did that? know. But this, oh, you gotta save all your friends, Echo. What happened? Dude, just summertime video games are the bass, suddenly winds of water. Now he's got to shoot

all the things. Echo the Dolphin, dude. And then you get to that board that can ever end. Oh, my God, I can find out to underwater levels all day. Trying to think, are we missing any good ones? Like, there's newer ones. I search for 10 games that have awesome water levels. What are the ones? Let me go down to... Hold on. Donkey Kong Country is number one. Really? Coral Capers gives Donkey Kong

and a swordfish to ride with legendary music. Yeah. Mario 64 underwater level? Dyer, die or dachs? Yeah, Mario 64. That one might be one of my favorite marios because I was just, if not my favorite, because I was just old enough then to really get video games

and like really, really play without just, you know, getting frustrated after 30 seconds. Mm-hmm. Yep. Mario swimming around, looking for treasures. Yes. Tucked away in little nooks and crannies,

solving puzzles and seeking hidden stars. Wow. Do I remember this one? Sonic 3 Hydro City Zone? Hold on a second. Yeah, yeah. Puzz and Jay and I played so much Sonic. I can't even tell you.

Sonic. What are some people saying on the chat? Let's see here. What do we got? Yeah, the Ninja Turtle on, yeah. Surf music from Pokemon is up there, a bunch. See if I remember this music. Let's see, we got... Yeah.

Oh, so funky. Yeah, I don't think we're missing any. Dude, the Sonic... The Sonic... The Sonic soundtrack are some of the funkiest Sonic. Some of the funkiest music you're ever going to hear. That was back when... Soundtracks or soundtracks.

See if you can name this one. I'm going to throw this one at you. All right. See if you can name this one. Don't think creatures. Think devices. Think vehicles. Oh, Hydro Thunder.

Hydro Thunder was so good. So good. We're talking underwater levels. Staying cool on a hot summer day. Any other coming in? I don't know Wave Runner 64. What's underwater? What's that one?

There's two Mario ones, the underwater theme, but then the underwater theme from the level. But I don't know there's a difference. I don't think anything. Dr. Robotnik's mean bean machine. Is that underwater? We're talking underwater right now. Earthworm Jim had a water level?

Hold on. I could never beat that game. No, that game was really hard. A lot of those games back then, there were such a craze and a rush to get all these games out that a lot of them weren't like the best, you know. This is Earthworm Jim.

I don't remember this. That's a funky level, though. Kids that didn't come up in the next. 90s. It was just the best. It was the best music. It was the best TV. It was the best video games. It was the best everything. Everything was just a little silly and stupid. Like, this is an earthworm.

This is an earthworm and a little pod going underwater. It's just stupid. It was all just about having, like, silly fun. Everything was silly fun, man. Anyways, what's your favorite underwater level? Stay cool on a hot-ass Monday. Guys. Yeah.

Guys, guess what? See right here? See this space right here? I don't got to promote anything right now. This is the first time in several months that I haven't had to say words about an event that we got to tell you about. Let's just take eight seconds that way the alarm doesn't go off. Let's just sit in it, guys. This is us. Appreciating you for listening to the radio.

And we love you. And there's nothing to promote right now. We're just going to sit in it. And we're going to enjoy. Look at these lanes. They're so spacious. We're going back and forth. There's no event this weekend.

Shout out to our events team, because, oh, my God, the last eight weeks. Yeah. I mean, every week is, for them, is stressful. But the last. You guys have no idea how hard our events peeps work here at Galaxy. That was the only comment I was this close to. Because I don't. I don't.

Someone said some stupid C word said something about being dumb, and they need to maybe take a step back and plan this. event better or something. Are my comments? I said that? I don't know. It was, I think, one of the, another garbage write up. But it was like, really?

Why don't you, why don't you come in and see what these people do to actually plan these event, playing better? Kiss my ass. Dude, there is nobody I will defend harder than our event team. That's what I'm saying. You miserable piece of trash. You do not call our baby ugly because these people work, I mean, they work so hard to put on eight weeks.

Here's the event schedule that our team has. They have tastes of Syracuse. They've got the Moonlight Movie series. They've got the Syracuse Nationals. And then a week later, the K Rockathon reboot. That all fell within eight weeks. And our team here, busted their... And by team, we mean what, five people?

It's like five. I was going to say busted their balls, but really, it's just Badger with the balls. Yeah, they all got balls. It's mostly boobs, right? They busted their boobs and balls. But they all got big swinging balls. Whatever. So, shout out to them.

Now, nobody bother them. Big massive ovaries. Give them a break. all right. None of you need anybody from our event staff this week. Let them rest. Although. Katie, I can't find the...

Thinking just for a second. Although I've already had to bother Boss Lady because of the IDs. But other than that, I'm not bothering anybody. I'm bothering. I can't find our stickers. Where are our gangers? But we have to go to a random thing. We need help.

Saturday. No. I'm leaving our events division alone. I mean, other than you know who we'll be here. You know who we'll see probably within a half an hour. Badger's probably already here. That guy can't quit.

Well, yes, but, yeah. You know who. Who? Oh, party pants. Patty party pants. Don't take no days off. No days off. No, here's the thing.

No days off. And then above all of it, Patty Party pants. Yeah. All right. If I see Patty walk by these windows, I will not be shot. She just decided to just mosey.

on over to a rock show showing up She was at the reboot, because she's like, I'm here to F and rock. Yeah. My balls off. This is what Patty's sad. I heard her. I heard her. Oh, man. I watched the new Happy Gilmore movie, and I see some of you saying you didn't enjoy it.

I really enjoyed it. I've only heard people say that I should watch it because they like it. So, I don't know. It's silly. It's, I guess if I was Adam Sandler and I had kids that wanted to be in movies, I would put them movies too. Oh, his kids are in it? Yeah, both of his daughters are in it.

Well, that's what... And then Julie Bowen who plays, I won't tell you what happens to her in the movie, but... Yeah. She's, you know, obviously his wife now in this movie. Oh, spoiler, thanks. Well, they get married at the end of the original Happy Gilmore, bud, and this catches you up.

And her real kids play, I think, three of their sons. Because they have a bunch of kids in this movie. Well, that's what Watts' Nuts does. Who? That Jude... I never say name are Apatow, Apatow. His two daughters are in almost everything. And you could say that they're Nepal babies. I don't care. As long as they're all good actors, I don't care.

Here's the thing. Here's my take on that. Like everyone's always like, oh, Nipple babies in Hollywood. Dude, if a guy owns a car dealership and his kid works there, you don't piss and moan. If a guy owns a, you know, a plumbing business, it's usually what happens. It's the family business. Yeah. Like if one of my kids, not let they never want to get into broadcasting, but if they did, I have access that many people don't have access to, so why wouldn't I give them those opportunities? Do you ever want to do weekends? And I think they were really good.

Like, they were good in this movie. John Daly's hilarious. I like him in general, so. He's really funny in this movie. They all do a great job. How long is it? It's two hours. But it's a good, it's an enjoyable two hours.

Now, that's okay. I can do my splitskeys. Because, you know, ADD, Cody, ain't sitting down for no two-hour movie. Pause it down for no. hour movie. Pause. Half an hour movie.

Uh, yeah, I'll do, I'll do the one hour, you know, walk house or something. Yeah. Smirky,

smirky. And then restart. Yeah. Yeah, I, I really enjoyed it. I know it wasn't for everybody, but I,

I thought it was silly. I thought it was cute. It had a ton of cameos. Bad Bunny is amazing in it. I love Bad Bois. He's hilarious in the movie. Ain't nothing that Bab Bunny does bad.

That's for real. Ain't nothing Bad Bunny does bad. It's not ruining any part of the movie, but in the movie, happy forgets a caddy again and Bad Bunny just got fired from his waiting job so the running joke throughout the whole movie is that

whenever anyone is injured or needs catty things he asks that they need breadsticks too couldn't I get you a breadsticks? It's so funny dude I like it I like it as long as two hours but it is very funny and yeah I cried at the end of it

You knew I would I'm a sappy sappy dad all right This means something to people. I don't know anything about it, but it was a big sporting thing that happened over the weekend. What? I didn't see anything.

Where's my... With that pressure than James Wade. And he's under some out. There's been one ton plus finish in this game. And it was from James Wade. It was 101. What am I? You'll see they finish it.

Okay. This was a big deal, I guess. One trouble combo. He has the treble. He's 18. That guy's 18, by the way. Shut up! Shut off.

That kid's not 18. Whatever this dart championship is. That kid's 18. His kid is 18. No, he's 18. No, no. He's 18. He won the dart thing, I guess.

I don't know what it went James Wade. Nice darting. No, Littler. Luke Littler. He darted so well. Luke Littler wins the world match play darts final against James Wade.

Of course he did. 18-year-old has joined Phil Taylor, Michael Van Gervin, and Gary Anderson along the list of champs. Short list of my heroes. It's something to people. That's a thing to people, I guess. I mean, I guess.

Congratulations. I guess. 18-year-old Luke. Also happening in sports. I didn't know that Harry Carey's son was a broadcaster. Hi. Hi. But he had to apologize for a botched call.

Oh. I guess you're going to hear him. I guess he's the broadcaster for the A's. Okay. And. So he didn't apologize for anything. No one's listening to that podcast. But okay.

He thought it was a home run. It was not a home run. I guess it went foul. One, two pitch. High in the air, deep to right. That ball is foul. Or gone. Right there.

So it was a home run, but he called it foul. Let me go back. Oh, he's all right. High in the air, deep to right. That ball is foul. Or gone? Gone. That ball was absolutely launched.

Lawdog posing him up at the dish. He knew it off the bat. It was just a matter of how far. In classic baseball nerddom, he has to apologize to the fans. I mean, come on. I apologize for a little. Totally. Lost it in the lights, no excuses.

Unfair to Butler and our fans that I messed up as badly as I did. This is completely and totally on me. Wish I could have it back, but that's just baseball. I apologize and will be better tomorrow. Shut up. To Cody's point, no one was listening to the A's call anyways. I wouldn't worry about it, Chris. Yeah.

No one's listening to that. I think you're good, bro. But yeah, I think we're all going to survive, Chris. I think we're all going to survive. Personally, I'm fearful. Next couple days Gonna be real humid Yeah

I was looking at my forecast for a trip coming up Yeah 101 But it's a dry heat Right But speaking of trips Who's taking a trip to America's most visited state Florida

No I don't know why you're pointing me here in New York No Vermont New Jersey No me, Cody I am

West Virginia Oh sorry No it is not I don't know How it's not West Virginia has the highest visitor

Maybe it's this No no No no no No no No no No no No no Now this is called

The highest visitor To local ratio So maybe no one lives there anymore But people are just driving through No they're too stupid They count

Everybody that Yeah They're counting people driving through on vacation to another spot. You were here that counts. You visited. Check more. I do love

the mountains of West Virginia. Don't love being in West Virginia. Yeah. 42.4 visitors to each local. Oh, like they know how to do that type of math. And I got a feeling, whoever thinks they did the census in West Virginia, you did not do a census.

There's people in them hills up in the hollers that you've never met, you never will meet. You watch some of those videos, those people that, like, venture up there to go and see some of those families. Brave. I, no joke. I feel bad for them, first of all, because

they're just inbred to the max. Yeah, yeah. And then I just, I can't imagine the stink. Well, and they're just out of, they're not in communication with anybody. They just... Like, I watch a lot of... I don't know how to describe this. I watch a lot of driving

around YouTubers. Whereas, they get in their car just drive around because I love driving around. And they, like, whenever they visit, like, a West Virginia or, like, a part of Tennessee, and they're, like, in the, like, the, you say the city center, but it's not. No. They'll be like, yeah, just don't go up that holler because you ain't going to be welcome up that holler, and you can go up that holler, and it's, like, little roads up into the mountains that you do not travel. No, no, that's so weird.

North Dakota is next, followed by Delaware. I got to figure this is because of math. You got more people visiting than actually live there. Yes, it has to be. That doesn't make any sense whatsoever. Because in Texas, it's two to one. Because Texas is packed. Oh, really?

North Carolina, Arizona. Very few visitors compared to locals. All right. What's here? New York seems pretty balanced, I guess, because we've got a lot of people to live here and a lot of people to visit. Because once you're here, your family. That's the New York, New York, Staten.

What you're here. What's your here. You're family. How was an MLB Hall of Fame weekend down there, you Cooperstown listeners? I forgot it was this weekend. How was it? E Ched-O. Who got inducted?

Who got inducted? Let's see here. I'll let you say their names because I won't know any of, um, Lottie said it was busy down there. Lottie, didn't you have like a private party at the, uh, at the Omeng? The Omogang Borg? C.C. Sabathia, definitely deserving. Eichero, absolutely deserving one of the best of all time. And Billy Wagner, one of the better closers of all time.

He's a fine inductee. So that's cool. So those three. Yeah, Lottie says Astros had their party at Omagang on Friday. Yankees had theirs on Saturday. That's cool. Echro is one of the best hitters I've ever seen in my entire life. Have you ever been out to the Hall of Fame?

Just once. I want to go back. That's an easy day trip. I've been there twice, technically. Cupertstown twice when we went and got that big fat burg. Yeah. And then another time just for the Hall of Fame. But I got to go again, man, because there's so much there.

Do you like museums and stuff? Like looking at stuff now? Not really. I do. Depending on what it is or whatever. But ask me. What? Ask me if I like me.

Do you like, Cody, do you like museums? Not really. Not really. I don't know if we're going to any museums on our trip. It depends. I mean, I don't think so. It doesn't have to be like an all-day thing.

No. And it's not just, like, paintings. No, I don't like paintings. Then I could go see stuff. I don't like art museums.

Uh-uh. I like stuff where, I like museums where, okay, I don't, like I like the, I like where I'm looking at stuff. No,

I went to the, in Washington, the Smithsonian or whatever where they had all that stuff. That was some of the coolest stuff I've ever seen. It just wasn't the best time. It was wicked rushed. But,

but I'll always remember seeing Abe Lincoln's hat and pipe. Okay, yeah, that's cool. Like, that's cool. Like, that's legit history. Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is just an absolute banger. I love that. I would go there because I was so interested in the, when we stayed at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Vegas,

there was memorabilia. Oh, yeah, you said the memorabilia. They had setups everywhere, dude. I love that stuff. I love rock gear. They had original, on Nirvana lyrics like Kirk Cobain clothes. I mean, it's awesome.

I can't even explain to you the amount of things. Like, honest to God, you should just go into the hard rock. In Vegas? Just to see some of that. Because it was, it's like a little free museum with the amount of things they had everywhere in there. It's like, how'd you get? Even if you just want to drive out to Rochester, the Strong Museum has tons of cool stuff in it.

That's one I would go to. That's one I would go to. You're looking at video games and like computer stuff. I love all that. Katie said her kid loved the town of Cooperstown just because it's fun to walk through like all the baseball card chops and hats and clothes and stuff like that Josh let me go into those stores

Yeah I bought Cooperstown distillery booze I forgot about that Yeah No that was fun that As far as I was just to say museums I mean yeah zoos does that count Animal Museum It is kind of an animal museum

It's kind of an animal museum yeah But no um yeah so some I would go to Yeah I just like seeing things Well, congratulations to those people inducted. Hope you all had a good time down there in Cooperstown. Yeah, when's my... They do a parade, right?

How's the parade? They'd probably do all sorts of stuff up there. Yeah, right? But who's next year? Because eventually, isn't my boy Andrew Jones? Is he done? Former Atlanta Brave? I bet if you wanted to go see some of your people get inducted, it's probably...

Oh, it's Andrew Jones's final year on the ballot. Oh, he's not going to get in. They cut off the... You can't go... Yeah, once you're on there... Oh, no, never mind. He's been way up there. Yeah, you have...

a certain amount of years you can be on the ballot before they're like, we got to make rules. Yeah, they're like, hey, it ain't happening, bud. Oh, that is sad. This is getting sad. It ain't happening, bud. Although, now we're getting into the younger people. You know, now they're, you know, like, I remember vividly watching Yichiro and all those guys.

Yeah, it's like, oh, no, we're that old that they're in the Hall of Fame. Oh, bud. Yeah. Yeah, we're old now. If I could find it, I saw a photo this past weekend that was like a 90s con somewhere. and I saw the cast of step by step. I'll find it again and show you guys. It's really hard for me to see that.

Yeah. Because I'm seeing all the people that I loved as a kid and now they're just really old people because I'm really old. It's crazy. It's really a lot to handle. It's hard to handle. Joining us back in the studio, Tiffany, hi, Tiffany.

Hi, Tiffany. Hi, thank you so much for having me. So you were here on behalf of sci-fi horror fest Carnival, happening next month, right? Yep, August 14th, sorry, 15th and 16th, at Vernon, Don's Hotel and Casino in Vernon, New York. It's a two-day event. Now, listen, Tiffany, the horror world is not one I'm familiar with,

so you'll need to tell everybody who's on the schedule. I've got it up on the screen. If you're watching in Twitch, there's the poster. Yeah. Run through who people can meet, see, and all the stuff going on. So, first of all, I have to give a huge shout out to our two headlining sponsors. Nevermore Tattoo and Collective Richelism. Awesome.

Love it. Limer up and his stuff. Love it. And then X-Files, Preservation and Collectibles from Saratoga Springs. Cool. Just took a tour. Amazing.

Love it. Got to touch stuff, David Du Coveney and Jillian Anderson Moore. I'm literally re-watching X-Files right now. He started it. Yeah, he just showed me that because I didn't really watch it, but he just showed me the fluke monster thing. Yeah, season two with the flu.

I'm still afraid to turn the lights off at night or use water, getting the shower. I get it. I get it. Well, what's really cool. Really quick is they have molds that were actually used on the set. that made the creed creatures. It's so amazing. Where is this?

Saratoga Springs, New York, near Albany. I want to go see this. The X-Files, preservation, and collectibles center. It's only a couple hours away. That's not far at all. I just went up there. I did a whole live video. It was awesome. Well, I'm going up there. I love the X-Files, and I didn't know we had a spot in our backyard that I could go see stuff. We were just talking about museums to go see. This is one I'm going to go see. It's huge. Well, let's talk about the event, Tiffany. Who's going to be there? So we have the legend himself of Bill Mosley, who is in Texas Chainsawm Massacre 2. He was chop top. He's been in Rob Zombies Halloween. Rob Zombies Devil Rejects. Rob Zombies House of a Thousand Corpses. I mean, amazing. We got Will Forsyth, who was in The Devil's Rejects.

He was in Rob Zombies Halloween. He was in, I'm going to go back. I'm old. So I watched Untouchables with, he was Al Capone in the 1990s. Oh, really? Okay. He was in Raising Arizona. Oh, wow.

Then we have Stretch herself from Texas Transcendile Massacre to Caroline Williams. That's neat. She's going to be there. And one of my favorites I'm actually fanning out so bad, Terrence Sudunage. If you love rock operas, horror operas, he's the most amazing creative person. He did repo the genetic opera, the devil's carnival. Alleluia. I mean, he's got a huge underground following.

He's such amazing person. We've got Tyler Main, who is Sabretooth and Deadpool. And then he was Michael Myers and Rob Zombies Halloween. So I'm so excited about that. We have beautiful Lisa Wilcox, who is the final girl and Nightmare, Now Street 4 and 5. And then we have two amazing content creators, Grimm from Grimm's horror show, and Cecil Tretchenberg from Good Bad Flicks.

He was featured on In Search of Darkness, the Corey Taylor documentary. That's like six hours long. Nice. Cool. So we've got them coming, which is amazing. They're going to do a movie riff at Saturday night, which they always do. They pick a movie to do ever watch riff tracks. Yes, love riff tracks.

So they do the same thing. Okay. But they do it at the end with a horror movie. I got to say, as you're right. running through all these things I'm realizing, I got to bring my oldest kid to this. Our oldest has really gotten to horror the last year. Oh, yeah. Yeah.

She turns 15. She's 16 now, but like around the age of 15, she just started watching a lot of horror movies. And now, like, she's getting nerdy about it. Like, she wants the DVDs, not the on demand because there's, like, some horror movies where you can choose your own adventure if you have the DVD. Like, it's a whole universe, and I'm going to have to bring her out to this. So I love to say it because we are family-friendly. Yeah.

We're very person-centered. trauma-informed. You know, we treat everybody equal from the guests for the vendors, the attendees. And because of Josh and Brandy at Vernon Downs Hotel and Casino, which we love them, they allow us to do that. So it's like a giant Halloween party. Yeah. So bring her because we have vendors that sell the DVDs and the VHSs.

We're going to have a collectibles person that if you get something signed, he can commemorate it and put it behind glass and everything like that. He'll be right near the celebrities. We got fudge people. We have like a tattoo artist, Nevermore will be there. Awesome. We have a mate. We have Anne's Midnight Creations who makes these amazing horror cups.

I mean, we have vintage people. We have apparel coming. Yeah, we're coming to this. We have tie-dyes, people coming. I'm trying, we have food trucks. We have Elm Street Taco who makes the bombest tacos in case of you've ever had. Perfect time. We've got Deli-Lishis who has like pulled pork and mac and cheese.

And then Lala's lemonade. And then for the VIP party, if you come, there is orders provided, but we do do a cash bar. Unfortunately, we are sold out. Yeah, you said VIP is sold out, but that's a good problem. You're all going to have fun. It's a terrible problem, right? Yeah. And they get to mingle this.

But the nice thing is, is even though the VIP party sold out, we might be small, but we're very mighty. Yeah. And what I love about our energy is you can come and meet Bill and meet all these people, and you get to have a moment. Yeah. And that's why we make it person-centered, because how special is it that people, out of all the millions of events going on?

But we'll be selling tickets all weekend. Okay, great. And the website is... www. www.c.I-friorfest.com. And literally, if you just go to... If you're in Facebook or whatever, just type in sci-fi horror fest, it'll probably be the first thing that pops up.

It really is. I'm so happy. Google, like, loves us. Yeah, good. Good. What do you see? What? Sorry, I'm on the X-Files.

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, they got the fluke right there, man. I got to go see this museum. They're great, right? I got to go see this museum. I'm so into the X-Files. Cool. Tiffany, we're going to give away a pair, right?

Great to see you have a great show. Thanks for coming there. I will be there. Joining us for his monthly visit, Syracuse Mayor Ben Walsh. Good morning, Ben. Morning, fellas. Happy summer. Oh, happy summer indeed.

It is hot today. It is. Real quick, pools are open, you said. Let's get out there and enjoy those pools. All eight outdoor pools are open in our city parks. The last one to open was Schiller up on the north side, but they're all open. So no matter what side of town you live on,

come on out, free of charge. And, yeah, it's been hot, so our pools have been popular. But let's not to start with too much negativity, but we're in Armory Square. Yeah. I see the news articles come out that is it dangerous, is it not dangerous? I feel fine in Armory. But I guess what's going on in Armory Square right now? Well, I think it's been, you know, overall, the short answer is Armory Square in downtown Syracuse is very safe.

I work down here every day. I was here on Friday night with my family, my daughters, my parents. We had an amazing dinner. Downtown was hopping people around. I think when folks that maybe don't come down often, they might see the headlines and get a different idea. Obviously, there's been a lot of chatter recently. Really, the specific issue is late at night after 2 a.m., when the bars closed, when most people should be going home, some people don't. And over the years, I've been, you know, it's my eighth year on the job.

We've had different areas in town where people have decided to meet up and they pull up their cars and they drink and they party. and unfortunately they've been picking armory recently and they were creating a lot of issues. The business owners reached out to us. We deployed an enhanced public safety detail, Syracuse Police Department, Sheriff, State Troopers, county probation. Again, we've done this in other parts of the community before. We've been down here for the past few weekends. We always have our armory detail, but it's been enhanced.

And it's done the trick. So, you know, the reality is, unfortunately, it will likely pop up somewhere else, but there's nothing unique about Armory that is making it inherently unsafe. The reality is, you know, when people ask me, well, what are folks supposed to do after the bars closed at 2 a.m? And my answer is, go home. Yeah, I don't sound like a fuddy, but go home. It's 2 o'clock in the morning. Go home.

Earlier than 2 a.m. Even in my younger days where I wasn't quite ready to go home, you go to somebody's house. Partying out in the streets at 3 o'clock in the morning is never a good idea. It's not safe. But thankfully, the business owners were pro-eastern. We were proactive. We got, we got out. We, we, you know, put the kibosh on it. And again, for folks that have any hesitation, come down to Armory Square, come downtown, we've got a ton of investment, ton of new places to eat, to shop, and it's safe. Trust me. In my 15 years working down here,

I never felt unsafe than Armory Square. I'm not just saying that because Ben's here. I'm saying that because it's honest. But let's shift gears. Because the other story I've been seeing a lot of is the steam school that's opening up. I, I knew it is STEM, like the, now it's Steem. Talk about that a little bit. The acronym Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts is what makes it steam and math. And so the old central tech been vacant for decades right on the southern end of downtown, beautiful historic building with an incredible historic auditorium, Lincoln Auditorium, is going to be open this September for the first day of school.

We're going to bring in our inaugural freshman class, 250 kids. About 80% of those kids are Syracuse City School District students. About 20% are suburban students. students that can apply through OCM BOCES to go there. And it's going to be a game changer. You go there, you get your core curriculum, but we have all these specialized programs, career and technical education programs, on things that really matter and are driving the new economy, things like Semiconducting with MicronConn.

We have an amazing program. Micron has invested in the school. We have Amazon here, and there's a packaging program. that Amazon has invested in. Again, the arts, we have this beautiful auditorium, a performing arts program. It's going to be a world-class institution, and again, something that's available,

both for city and suburban students. So we're really excited. I mean, I think you and I are pretty close to the same age. It's so different now. I have two kids that are high school age now. You and I growing up probably Cody, too, making balsa wood bridges. Now these kids, they're doing robotics,

they're doing semiconductors, all this stuff. Like, they're coding. How are they going to hang their bananas? I know. Where are they going to play? put their paper towel roll holder, you know? But it's wild, though, Ben, watching this new generation. It is. You know, and I think we probably could have used more of that.

Yeah. You know, as fun as some of those activities were, I mean, these programs get kids thinking about your future. It doesn't lock them in. No. They're still figuring out who they are and what they want to be. But to have that hook, something that really gets to their passion, it can make all the difference in the world for kids and how they do in school.

And, again, the Steam School is going to be world-class and is going to be world-class and is going to be a model for other communities around the country. I love it. Syracuse Mayor Ben Walsh's studio real quick before we let you go. You said pools are open. Also some park stuff coming up, right? Yeah, so we have live music going on three days a week and our parks, oftentimes more, but through our pops in the park series, Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays at different parks. So Monday, tonight, we are up at Berry Park on the east side.
