Starting point is 00:00:00 And we thank them for sponsoring the show. Well, no, I'll just go ahead. I mean, look, I'm money dumb. Y'all know that. I've been money dumb ever, since ever, my whole life. And the modern world makes it even harder to not be money dumb, in my opinion, because you used to, you, like, had to write down everything you spent or you wouldn't know nothing. But now you got apps and stuff on your phone.
Starting point is 00:00:19 It's just like you can just, it makes it easier to lose count of, well, your count, the count every month, how much you're spending. A lot of people don't even know how much they spend on a per month basis. I'm not going to lie, I can be one of those people. Like, let me ask you right now. Skewers out, whatnot, sorry, well-read people. People across the ske universe, I should say. Do you even know how many subscriptions that you actively pay for every month or every year?
Starting point is 00:00:41 Do you even know? Do you know how much you spend on takeout or delivery? Getting a paid chauffeur for your chicken low main? Because that's a thing that we do in this society. Do you know how much you spend on that? It's probably more than you think. But now there's an app designed to help you manage your money better, and it's called Rocket Money.
Starting point is 00:01:00 Rocket Money is a personal finance app that helps find and cancel your unwanted subscriptions, monitors your spending, and helps lower your bills so you can grow your savings. Rocket Money shows all your expenses in one place, including subscriptions you already forgot about. If you see a subscription, you don't want anymore, Rocket Money will help you cancel it.
Starting point is 00:01:18 Their dashboard lays out your whole financial picture, including the due dates for all your bills and the pay days. In a way that's easier for you to digest, you can even automatically create, custom budgets based on your past spending. Rocket Money's 5 million members have saved a total of $500 million in canceled subscription with members saving up to $740 a year when they use all of the apps. Premium features.
Starting point is 00:01:44 I used Rocket Money and realized that I had apparently been paying for two different language learning services that I just wasn't using. So I was probably like, I should know Spanish. I'll learn Spanish. and I've just been paying to learn Spanish without practicing any Spanish for, you know, pertinent two years now or something like that. Also, a fun one, I'd said it before,
Starting point is 00:02:06 but I got an app, lovely little app where you could, you know, put your friend's faces onto funny reaction gifts and stuff like that. So obviously I got it so I could put Corey's face on those two, those two like twins from the Tim Burton Alice in Wonderland movies. You know, those weren't a little like the cue ball looking twin fellas. Yeah, so that was money.
Starting point is 00:02:28 What was that a reply gift for? Just when I did something stupid. Something fat, I think, and stupid. Something both fat and stupid. But anyway, that was money well spent at first, but then I quit using it and was still paying for it and forgotten. If it wasn't for Rocket Money, I never would have even figured it out. So shout out to them.
Starting point is 00:02:45 They help. If you're money dumb like me, Rocket Money can help. So cancel your unwanted subscriptions and reach your financial goals faster with Rocket Money.

They're the they're the liberal rednecks they like cornbread but sex they care way too much but don't give a fuck.
Starting point is 00:03:20 They're the liberal rednecks that makes some people. People upset, they got three big old dicks that you can suck. What'd you do to your back? Just old and played basketball normal and it just stopped working? That's literally it. I played basketball normal and I'm just old. I really don't hit. I don't hit at all.
Starting point is 00:03:44 It just quit. We just gave up. Lower? Yeah, close to my hips. Oh, that's the worst, dude. It's probably where it attaches there. It's been on and off for a while. This is the most painful.
Starting point is 00:03:56 one you got to start playing golf buddy it's over yeah it's been over i just i can't do anything else uh cardio wise just have no ability or interest to do it are you in any type of pain tray no no i hit just fine uh i don't play basketball though i did that my back was hurting yesterday for no good reason but it seems fine today and it just sort of be like that and i don't think it was hurting near as bad as jrews evidently is. Corey, I'm assuming you want to talk about Georgia, as is you're right, but I'd like to just sort of go ahead and get that over with because that game didn't hit for nobody else on planet
Starting point is 00:04:36 earth and I don't want to spend a lot of time on. No, that's literally what I was about to say was that like, listen, listen last year, like, and I even told you this, I was like, anything, like once we finally won it against Alabama, I was like, everything else is just going to kind of be gravy. And I mean, that's, I don't, I don't think I, even if it did. did come down to the wire with TCU and there was a lot of emotion. I still think I would have been like, cool. Wasn't as cool as the first one, but glad we did it.
Starting point is 00:05:02 But yeah, dude, like, that game could only hit for a Georgia fan. Right. You know, like, and if that was any other game, I'd already turn it off. But I did, I was like, I want to see how different Kirby Smart is than Mark Ricked by, you know, doing things like going for it on fourth and fifth when they're up by 45 points. So I was enjoying the padding of the stats. But yeah, dude, the game was shit. TCU had no business being there.
Starting point is 00:05:26 Well, listen, I don't know what y'all had in mind, but I'll just tell you, I haven't, I haven't recorded an episode of the Well Red podcast in like a month because we banked a couple in Nashville. And then I was in Salina and y'all had to do whatever. So I haven't been on here in a minute. So I've been keeping a list of silly, worthless topics I want to talk to you guys about. Please. If that's okay. Hell yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:49 Let me plug. Yeah, whatever you would do. Let me plug the new pie, gravy baby. There's clips up. It's hilarious. Carmen's hilarious. Let me tell a quick anecdote before we get into silly topics that I think will hit for you guys. Andy is working from home. She got a new part-time job.
Starting point is 00:06:07 And she's working for a company that does online classes for art. And they hired her for her, like, editing skills. But she's sort of a jack of all trades. They pay her like you'd pay an editor. But it seems so far that, like, 60% of her job is customer service. Oh, boy. So Andy's just on Zooms with old people who take painting classes on the internet.
Starting point is 00:06:36 So my mornings are over here taking pills because pills hit with a hurt back, playing with dogs because she's also started a dog sitting empire, playing with these giant chromosome deficient looking bulldogs. Yeah. While I hear. Andy just going, okay, so you can't hear me through your mic. Well, I don't think that's where you'd be able to hear me from. I want you to go to the bottom of your screen. There's a button. No, not like a button on a jacket.
Starting point is 00:07:12 More like a box. It's more like a box, I guess. It'll say settings. I want you to click that. Now, what does it say? No, I know you can't hear. I meant the screen. What do you read on the screen?
Starting point is 00:07:24 I know it doesn't actually say anything for just like an hour. And I am cracking up while playing with these bulldogs. I've got the life right now. Yeah, I was about to say, it seems like you may have already thought of this, but like you should like sit there all day and like transcribe all the conversations, like a court transcriber or whatever and just read them on gravy, baby. Or here. Yeah, that's what I'm going to start doing.
Starting point is 00:07:50 How did she, she's not, she didn't like specifically corner the market. on dog sitting only bulldogs, right? Because, like, that's a real coup if that's what happened. Because I feel like everybody would want that way. I guess most dog people love all dogs and whatever. But fucking... Yeah, but there's some, like, you don't want to... Like, if I'm dog sitting, I don't want a chihuahua.
Starting point is 00:08:12 Yeah, well, we like chihuahuas because they're mean and that's funny. But we just had these bulldogs since that first picture I sent you. I think they're going home sometime tonight. I've just had them for that many days. I will say from my experience with two bulldogs, one's British, one's American, that the only downside is that they are super sweet. They're pretty docile. They're lazy. But like, these two in particular, they don't care how big they are. They flop on you and move you and sit on the couch and get behind you and walk underneath you and all that in spite of the fact that they're like 90 pound loafs.
Starting point is 00:08:48 Yeah. I have drool on my butt right now. And because my back is hurt, I cannot get it off. No, dude. I used to have an English bulldog years ago, as y'all know, Dooley. And he would like take him on a walk or something. Didn't you shoot him when he was perfectly fine? Yeah, he killed him in front of his children.
Starting point is 00:09:08 Yeah, that's exactly what happened. He said, this is for you. Threw him off a bridge, as is my people or want to do. No. On his facts. He lived along for a bulldog and privileged life, so he died at. or whatever. Eight months.
Starting point is 00:09:25 Yeah, but anyway, uh, he used to just like, give up and just, just lay down and, he still does, but he used to, too.
Starting point is 00:09:38 Yeah. No, dude, he's long since dead. But like, I, like, you'd have to literally pick him up and carry him back to the house or
Starting point is 00:09:45 whatever because he wouldn't. He was just like, I'll just lie here and die. I don't get a fuck, you know, like, yeah. He's like, I'm not walking anymore.
Starting point is 00:09:55 One of these has a joint disease. We've got to give it. Of course. And, like, it's not the American one. It's not the Georgia bulldog. But I wish it was because I keep saying Corey has a gout. Every time he, like, starts limping, I just look at the dog and we're like, Corey's got gout. Is one of my French bulldog?
Starting point is 00:10:11 No, there's American and British. Oh, okay. Oh, yeah. Right on. Right on. Dude, I said British bulldog to this girl out here that I do a show with at the store. She's one of the producers. And she started laughing at me.
Starting point is 00:10:22 was the dumbest hick that ever existed. I was like, first of all, British Bulldog is a wrestler. But second of all, like I looked into it, English Bulldogs is a much more common way to phrase it. But people call him British Bulldogs. I got so annoyed. Yeah, I mean, it's a thing. The British Bulldog, that's why he was that. Or they were the British Bulldogs.
Starting point is 00:10:41 And then when Homey left, it was just, yeah, because that's already a thing. Well, British and English are, I understand there are subtle differences because we're talking about an empire versus a nationality. But like, those words are basically interchangeable, right? British and English. Yeah, actually, I know this. They're generally interchange. I mean, well, no, they're not, but people use them that way. So British means anything on that island, right?
Starting point is 00:11:09 Whereas English only means England, the country of England on that island. Now, a lot of people on that island, they don't want to be called British, but I'm saying like that island is the aisle of Great Britain. So like if that, if you're Welsh, you're also British. Again, I don't think that hits for them.
Starting point is 00:11:28 Not even a little bit. But I was going to say, if there's a Welsh bulldog, then I'll take my medicine to be wrong. But there's not. Right. Right. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:40 No. She don't hit. Whatever. She don't know. Whatever this lady is, correcting you erroneously. Just laughed at me. just in my face
Starting point is 00:11:52 like a that's how age I am at that women will laugh in my face now which you know has a lot of positives too like young girls just laugh on my face yeah but no I've been there's other positives that come
Starting point is 00:12:08 with that you know what I mean I don't want to talk to you for long exactly so what'd y'all would y'all get up to last week or Corey wasn't on it either was he I wasn't on it either now we just been
Starting point is 00:12:21 waiting on you to come back and tell us the silly stuff. Yeah, I talked with Andy and I finally told, oh, sorry. No, you go ahead. Well, I thought this is what you were setting me up for. I talked to Andy, I mean Andy did well read alone and I told the Burning Man story. Got a lot of messages about it. Oh, boy.
Starting point is 00:12:48 I'm for sure I told you all in the thread. Oh, oh, oh, yes, you did. It's just now all clicking for me. Yeah, I bet you got a lot of messages from our fans. Well, I mean, if we rehash it now, I'm just going to be rehashing it. Yeah, we don't have to do that. You don't know what I'm talking about? I don't remember.
Starting point is 00:13:11 Obviously, Corey remembers, so I know it's in the thread, but I don't remember. But you don't have to, you don't have to rehash it because everybody listening, I already heard you do it last week, and I'm not going to subject them to that. You can text me afterwards or I'll find it. in the text thread or something. Okay. That's fine. It's going to be so funny when you are told this. Tell us one of your silly bits, Trey.
Starting point is 00:13:33 It's been a month. What's been going on in Salinas? I know, but I was wanting to get to 15 minutes first. So yeah, I guess we can talk about Salina. It still don't hit. So we're, like, we're having to clean out the house we grew up in because we're going to do something with it. We don't know exactly what yet.
Starting point is 00:13:50 And, dude, the, the number of messages or like literally people driving up to the house asking us about like like it seems like it's the talk of the town because slime is so goddamn small like that just don't ever really happen
Starting point is 00:14:07 I guess like hardly ever like page's been getting so many messages stuff from people being like what are you going to do with that house you know let me I heard that maybe you're going to sell it how much you want for it like that type of thing like just from everybody all the time
Starting point is 00:14:21 And also, the whole process of cleaning out the house you grew up in. Yeah, that's got to be brutal. Yeah, it wasn't, if you mean in like a sentimental way, not really for me. Yeah. Because I was mostly just annoyed the whole time because for a lot of reasons. And I don't have to get into right now. But I, but yeah, but first thing I really wish you would. No, it's okay.
Starting point is 00:14:49 But the first thing I did was clean out my childhood. bedroom and and I texted y'all this and I don't care or say it. I've talked openly about it before, but the sheer number of Confederate flags and Confederate flag-related paraphernalia
Starting point is 00:15:05 Confederate flags on like County Fair Art literal flags like folded up flags. Yeah, county fair art, posters, drawn hand-drawn Confederate flags and notebooks.
Starting point is 00:15:21 Scanner, Accutramal, you know. Corey, please do a character, county fair art critic. Oh, that's fucking hilarious. I'm going to start with the one tracent of the Confederate flag with the alien. Yeah, right. So, and I threw away a bunch of great county fair art. But what's funny is, like, all that, it was like equal parts. Confederate flags and
Starting point is 00:15:56 like culturally appropriated hip-hop shit like white trash like you know what I mean like lugs boots or shirts or whatever and also the county fair art of like mace and you know puff daddy and whoever else and then all kinds of basketball players black models and stuff up there's an airbrushed
Starting point is 00:16:19 there's an airbrushed Venn diagram of white trash poor and black poor accoutrements from the 90s. And the Vendai Grant where it most overlaps is family reunion t-shirts. So you actually had a poster of Mace from a county fair? Did you have it? Do you commission it? No. No, it was a little, it was the same as all the little paper, the paper frame around just a little
Starting point is 00:16:51 square photo or whatever. Yeah. And then I had a bunch of wrestling ones too, but yeah, I had one of Mace. Did you throw the wrestling ones away? I threw them all the way, dog. Sorry. I had time for all that shit. This is so great.
Starting point is 00:17:05 I had Tupac. I want to say that real quick. Corey, did you not have any of those? Was your mom and I let you have that trash at your house? No, I definitely, I know what you're talking about, and I definitely had some, but it was like, I want to say that I'm certain at some point when I was a kid, I had a Duke's a hazard one. I know all my
Starting point is 00:17:23 buddies had them, but no, I mean, you're right in that if I got them, it would have been when I wasn't with my mama. Because,
Starting point is 00:17:31 yeah, she wouldn't have, she wouldn't have been down for that. So, Trey, you failed him, you failed new Corey
Starting point is 00:17:36 and you failed childhood, Corey, by not saving those for him. Well, that's all right. He fails me all the time. I just can't believe.
Starting point is 00:17:43 Just by not eating enough. Out in, uh, oh, I gained 10 pounds this weekend. I gained 10 fucking pounds this weekend in L.A. You're trying at least.
Starting point is 00:17:52 And my back, I appreciate that. Good graces. That sounds like a lot. It is a lot. He's wild with his numbers. Thursday. But this weekend is, I have to count last night, too, because of the Georgia game. It was Thursday through Monday I put on 10 pounds, which, you know, that's doable.
Starting point is 00:18:07 And also, it's the flight. I'm carrying a lot of water. I'm swollen up. So the thing I wanted to say about that is just I realized while looking through all those that that would be so confusing and confounding, I think. to people from like elsewhere or whatever that yeah right that combination of you know paraphernalia or whatever for a teenager to have but i feel like it was actually all extremely so on brand in uh yeah in salina like that's the thing that people didn't realize was you know this obsession
Starting point is 00:18:41 with black culture while also rocking the Confederate flag but furthermore my that that's you know it you know, I was a dumb-ass kid who didn't think the Confederate flag meant the stuff that it obviously does. Yeah, we'll do. None of us did. But right, to me, at the time, I didn't think that. And I just thought it went hard. And so, you know, I had it all over the place. Here's the difference between...
Starting point is 00:19:05 Go ahead. How did grown-ups who live that dichotomy now, which is very common, there's like racist white rappers. There's like MAGA rappers. Yeah, it's crazy. I don't know how that... What is it like, oh, the racist? Is it like the racist should be separate? I'm genuinely curious.
Starting point is 00:19:27 They're not like, oh, you're kind of racist. Like literal white supremacists who listen to white people rap. How do they do that, you think? Buddy, I'd sooner lasso the moon, frankly. I don't know. I guess to them, they're probably the type of people that are like, what rap isn't black culture. It's just a style of music.
Starting point is 00:19:47 they ain't the only ones that get to do it, you know? I don't, but like, yeah, it's, because in order for you to have gotten to where you wanted to do rap, you had to listen to a lot of it, and most of it is from black people. So, yeah, I don't know. Yeah, but they, you know, that's...
Starting point is 00:20:03 It's got to be a separate but equal bullshit thing of like, oh, I don't think black people, I just think they should have their own part of America, and we should have our part of America, which is an insane belief in and of itself. I just think they hit their, they got a lot of cognitive dissonance, mental gymnastics and all that shit. Well, there's so many examples of it.
Starting point is 00:20:26 They don't make any goddamn sense. Marjorie Taylor Green just used the Dr. Dre song in a campaign video or not camp, whatever, in a I hit video that she made of herself. Yeah. And Dr. Dre pulled it down. And when he said, yeah, that ain't it for me. Her response was, okay, so while I may enjoy the sounds of the chord. progressions just so you know, I would never use your hateful and misogynist and whatever lyrics or whatnot. So it's like, even that, it's like, how do you actually make sense about,
Starting point is 00:20:59 I mean, look, dude, it was, it was from Still D-R-E, and that is one of the hardest going beats of all time, you know, but like, not a few that bitch. She's like, no, she don't hit. No, she can't, she ain't, she ain't allowed to fuck with that. I don't feel comfortable fucking with that, No. You highlighted how funny her comment is, too. She called a Dr. Dre beat a chord progression. Right. You couldn't be more white than calling.
Starting point is 00:21:27 Well, I just really like the chord progression on forgot about Dre. Also, it's like she would have never. Yeah, like she would have never pointed out the misogynistic, disgusting lyrics had he not told her to take that shit down. Of course. You know what I mean? It's just like, You're telling on yourself so much now. Like, oh, now this song that you chose don't hit just because the artist was like,
Starting point is 00:21:52 fuck you, bitch. So she don't hit. No, she don't hit. All right. Well, now we can take a break, and then I'll do some silly stuff if y'all want to. Sounds good. We'll be right back right after this. All right, and we're back.
Starting point is 00:22:07 I don't know which one I want to start with. I guess maybe this one, because I actually didn't write this one down. I just got reminded of it yesterday. I'm about to incite some wrath if certain parts of the internet get a whole. hold of this segment. Also, let me preface this by saying, listen, Beyonce hits for me just fine.
Starting point is 00:22:23 I want to talk about... You don't want the hive, buddy. No, I know. I don't want that smoke. I don't want that smoke. Just fine, huh? Just fine. But I do want to talk about one particular song
Starting point is 00:22:36 because it popped up on my Peloton ride, right? Mm-hmm. And I never heard it. I don't know if y'all have heard it. Looking up, it's from 2008, so it was real old. but, you know, Beyonce been hitting since forever. But have you ever heard the song Diva by Beyonce?
Starting point is 00:22:51 No. You know, I have done it. The chorus just repeats these lines basically over and over. It goes, A Diva is a female version of a hustler, of a, of a hustler, of a, of a hustler, a Diva is a female version of a hustler, of a hustler, over and over again, right?
Starting point is 00:23:09 That's the chorus. And then there, okay. What do, what do you all think Diva, amaze. A bitch. And I'm not saying that it should. I'm not saying that it should because we all know that in this world, if a man is showing some attitude, he's just wanting to get what's his and he's just being forthright. But if a woman does the same thing, she's being a diva. But like a diva, like the reason they call Mariah Carey a diva is because she's like, I have to have 16 different colored bananas in my, you know, dressing room or whatever.
Starting point is 00:23:46 So I think, especially when you're talking about people like Beyonce Maraicari or whatnot, I think an inherent part of the definition of diva is that there's a massive amount of talent there. So it's like there, of course, high maintenance, but justifiably so is how I would define like a literal actual diva, right? Right. Like I think and, but my point is it ain't got nothing to do with hustling. I mean, like, in fact, I would argue that it's almost antithetical to hustling. Like, it don't hit to have to hustle. Do you know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:24:25 Like, you got like, if you're a diva, you just say, bring me that tiny pig. And then it appears, but that's not a hustle. Somebody else has to go hustle for a pig. You have to hustle to become a diva. Perfect story for this. Perhaps, but I just don't think a diva is, A diva is a The song goes
Starting point is 00:24:46 A diva is a female version of a hustler And I just contest that assertion I would say that A diva is the female version of a pimp Well pimps are hustlers In a lot of ways No no I mean I mean in the sense that we use pimps We're like oh that dude's a pimp
Starting point is 00:25:01 You know what I mean I don't want to get into it about African American vernacular And abonics right now Because I don't know if any of us are qualified Trace is probably the most qualified But I think all of his knowledge Is from like 98 to 07
Starting point is 00:25:13 but I wanted to tell a quick story to highlight it. Exactly. You're one year off. We used to work. Andy was a manager at like a high-end catering company in Times Square. J-Lo was at an event one time and Andy was assigned to her. So she was her point of contact on the end of the company. Now that doesn't mean she interacted much with J-Lo because J-Lo had people that
Starting point is 00:25:43 you know, we'd talk to Andy. But at one point, Andy brought her water, and she brought it. And she was like, here's your water, Miss J-Lo.
Starting point is 00:25:53 And J-Lo didn't look at her. She went like this. Andy, like, picked it up towards her face, and J-Lo just turned her head without looking or addressing Andy at all other than to come here,
Starting point is 00:26:06 and sucked water from the straw, and then went like that. And that is the opposite of, hustling as you have just stated. Right. There you go. Now, I guess I would question if hustler means work hard because, you know, Jay-Z, what was that? I'm a hustler baby, and I want you to know.
Starting point is 00:26:26 I just want you to know. I don't know if that means he works hard or if it means he hits. I genuinely don't know if that means he's worked harder if it means that he's hits. I know that hustler means hustling drugs did at one point, you know, in that world or whatever. But I think you're saying the diva just means hit her. A diva has to hit because a non-hitter can't be a diva because people just wouldn't pay attention to them. You know what I mean? Yeah, then you're just a bitch.
Starting point is 00:26:52 Yeah. Right. And if you hit, you're not going to be hustling. Like, because I, because you know what I'm saying? Like, you like, exactly what Drew said. The story, Drew tells exactly what I'm talking about. That J-Lo story is like, that ain't, that's not, that's not very opposite of hustling. And I feel like that everything about what ostensibly defunders.
Starting point is 00:27:12 finds a diva and what they are is pretty, you know, opposite of the concept of hustling to me. All right, quick question, though. Doesn't hustle also mean like running a hustle? See, now we're just widen it up. But what I'm trying to say is, you know, tricking people, for lack of a better way to phrase it, like getting one over on folks. Oh, he hustled you. I hustled a guy out of his money.
Starting point is 00:27:36 Well, I think hustle and grind kind of go hand in hand now. And I think when, like a lot of people would call the Rock a hustler. He hits so he can have people give him water. But like the dude still works out eight hours a day and does like three film projects a day. Like he is hustling, you know. Do you associate everything you just said with divas though? Because I don't. No.
Starting point is 00:28:00 No, not at all. Does hustler also not mean? And everybody else can fucking deal with it. You know what I mean? And again, because they hit real hard. Like, so, you know, it ain't like to ride. also mean, though, what I'm talking about, like someone who runs game. Hustling?
Starting point is 00:28:20 Yeah, like hustling. Yeah, I mean, the original. Yeah. Yeah, you're, I'm saying, though, like, the term diva and hustler to me are not meaning the same thing. Right. That's what I'm saying, too. I agree with you.
Starting point is 00:28:38 It's just like, I just feel like we're missing something. is Beyonce. Here's what I think. Here's what I think maybe happens. Let me speak for Beyonce here after criticizing her. I think that it seems to me like, obviously Beyonce was getting and has always gotten and continues to be classified as a diva, right? She's definitely on the list of like the biggest divas, for my most famous divas on earth
Starting point is 00:29:06 or whatever. And I feel like it's Beyonce like, I don't know. reclaiming that word or redefining the word. It's like, yeah, I am a diva. You know why? Because this is what diva means. But I'm saying, listen to the song, you're like, but that ain't really what diva means, though.
Starting point is 00:29:20 Right. I want Beyonce, I want Beyonce to do a podcast and be like, oh, he's a liberal redneck. Okay, see, this is the thing. That ain't what redneck means. It's like he's trying to reclaim it, but that ain't what redneck means. Right.
Starting point is 00:29:35 Yeah. I mean, I guess, I mean, you know, she could just do whatever she wants. Obviously, the song, Hiff for people, I guess. I mean, if it popped up on a playlist 14 years later, it must have hit for somebody. But now, she's wrong. But see, Drew, I feel like it would be like, yeah, I don't know. I don't think I've, well, whatever, it doesn't matter.
Starting point is 00:30:02 No, I think I'm not trying to argue with you. I'm trying to understand her motivation for to go against what you're saying, totally logical. But I can't pretend to keep up with hip hop now, much less than. Yeah, I was about to say that it's done changed so much since then. I'm trying to figure out who actually, like, who wrote it. Because I don't know. He was 17 different people, I promise you that.
Starting point is 00:30:31 Yeah, you're probably right. Part of the reason that has a Beyonce songs is she uses a fuck ton of samples. Right. Right. It was co-written by her. and at least two other people, looks like. Okay, so yeah, I don't know. All right, well, moving on.
Starting point is 00:30:53 Hey, speaking of music, Bonneroo lineup dropped, and it was pretty good. Ooh. Foo Fighters Sunday, Corey. That's my least favorite. That's my least favorite decision that they made. Wait, why that it's Sunday? No, I'm not a big foo fighter guy.
Starting point is 00:31:09 I don't hate, like. Yeah, but it's an experience. You get to see one of the last living rock and rollers, dude. Yeah. They've grown on hit for me that hard. Why? What's he ever done to you? It's not me.
Starting point is 00:31:22 I mean, he came across pretty shitty in the whole when Kurt died scenario. But that's not really it for me. Like, I just feel like... He was also in his 20s. I mean, you know. Sure. I don't think he's like the worst person in the world. I think that the food fighters make songs for commercials.
Starting point is 00:31:35 There's nothing wrong with that. To me, they're like barely above nickelback. And I like weirdly think, more highly of nickelback than most people because I think they get a bad rap. But then I think less highly of footh fighters because I think they're overrated. Like, I think they should be like kind of evenly. It doesn't matter. I just was upset that that was the legacy act because I thought it was going to be Dolly Parton and Miley Cyrus.
Starting point is 00:31:55 That's really what's happened here. Tyler Childers. I mean, that would have hit. Tyler Childers is the third build. Yeah. Third build on Saturday. That's insane. That's why.
Starting point is 00:32:07 Yeah. They booked him. The theory on that is that they booked him right as he was blowing. up because if you remember i think i told this on the podcast i saw him open for sturgle at the civic coliseum and i'm not kidding a thousand people left after tyler played yeah but even if they did book him before that like you changed the billing to put one of the hitness dudes on top right it depends on how hard you hit and bonneroo bonneroo like does that though like it's happened a few times where bonneros done that but okay what are you all saying he should be higher or low because i didn't realize
Starting point is 00:32:42 he was that big of a deal is what he should be hired oh no no no no he's definitely one of the biggest he's a arena's arena's yeah yeah i didn't know y'all know i don't listen i don't keep up with music anymore yeah no he's like he's fucking huge dude not like one of his um i'm all yorn that song i hear that on my wife's phone 17 times a day because it's a really popular ticot song like he dude no he is fucking massive. And that kid, Zach Bryan,
Starting point is 00:33:15 that we talked about, we shared a couple of his YouTube videos, Trey, he's barely underneath him. They're actually co-hydlining Railbird. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:24 So everybody who opens for BJ Barham blows up. I want to see a BJ will take me on a leg this year. He's the Janet Williams of music. I've always said it. Who's Odessa?
Starting point is 00:33:35 Odessa's like a Portugal the man-ish type band. Like they're jammy a little bit, but it's live music. And they play Bonneroo a bunch and they've just kind of tame Impala. They're American Tamimpaula. Because they're the headliner Saturday night. And then Little Nazex is number two and then Tyler Childers.
Starting point is 00:33:52 But he's above My Morning Jacket, Corn, Cheryl Crow. I know those last two are all that checks out. I don't know how they decide the order, but most people talk about it in terms of lines. So they would consider Little Nozek, Tyler, Corn, and My Morning Jack would to be equal as subheadliners. Yeah. I don't it's obviously not alphabetical some people say it's just aesthetics and then some people say no you it's the order that it goes in but my point is most people would say that he's just equal with all those people you could say man I'm kind of kind of bummed that I'm about to have a baby because I'd really like to go see Dave girl but I don't know if I'm going to make the trick and leave the wife at home yeah it's such a bummer it really kind of is I want to see the food fighters but also though I've always wanted to see the food fighters but I think I would rather do it at a foo fighters at a show that's just the foo fighters, not at Bonnaroo,
Starting point is 00:34:45 because I'd like to, you know, have a ticket, go in someplace, sit in a nice environment, and then leave instead of, you know, because I know what happens to me if I go to Bonner, I'm going to get strung out on some Mexican speed and just go in. They're doing day passes for the first time in many years if you wanted to just go for Sunday. Helt. Anyway, I'm pretty pumped about that lineup in general. Kendrick Lamar's album is my favorite album of the year. Well, maybe him or Jid, and Jid's also on the bill.
Starting point is 00:35:16 Saturday's so good. I'm going to have a hard time picking shows. Anyway, I'm just pumped about it. I don't know why I said speaking of Beyonce, she's never played Bonnero, never will. You don't think she ever will? Maybe it's a legacy act if it's still around 10 years from now. I don't know. Taylor Swift's never done it.
Starting point is 00:35:33 A lot of the female pops are they're too big for it. It's like they make way more money doing it on their own. all right so this one is uh whatever too late uh in the year because this is a christmas related thing because again i love it haven't been on there in a while and while in tennessee over christmas i came across this somewhere it was reddit of course and i was like i want to uh put that to them it's actually also music related uh i thought this was an interesting observation so the song uh i saw mommy kissing Santa Claus, right? I don't know that song.
Starting point is 00:36:10 That song is an example of a pretty rare occurrence, I believe, which is something that is totally innocent to adults, but inappropriate to children. Which is the opposite of how that, you
Starting point is 00:36:30 hardly ever see that. Like in Zootopia, where they have a reference to breaking bad, a reference to like meth cooking or whatever. Like that goes right over kids' heads, but the adults get it. But that, but that song is kind of the inverse of that. Because if you're an adult, you know what it, she's just, she's kissing the dad because he's dressed up as Santa Claus or whatever.
Starting point is 00:36:53 So it's just like a cutie little song. But if you're a kid, you believe in Santa Claus. You're like, mommy's a fucking cheating whore. Yeah, exactly. What the fuck is that about? And, uh, I just, I don't really. have anything else to say about that, but I thought that was an interesting observation, and I can't think of any other, like, examples.
Starting point is 00:37:12 That's a great sort of thing. That's a great observation, and you should, like, retool that for the Zany shows next year and do it as a bit. I'm trying to think of other examples. I feel like I was a perverted child. This surprises no one. I feel like there was a couple of times where I really thought something was wild. that wasn't, but I can't, nothing's coming to mind other than this song.
Starting point is 00:37:38 I definitely thought this song was about cheating. Yeah, I mean, I was about to say, like, I literally can't think of another, another song that fits that particular genre. Well, I think it's because, yeah, please, if you think of a good example, hit us with it. But I think, I think the, it's because it requires the belief in Santa Claus. Do you know what I mean? Yes.
Starting point is 00:38:02 That's the determining factor that makes. makes what I said true. And so it's a very, very specific thing that, you know, it's hard to think of another example of it outside of specifically Santa Claus and Christmas related stuff,
Starting point is 00:38:17 or at least it is for me. Yeah, this is not as cool of an example because it's less intricate and nuanced as that song, but just when kids think that words are cuss words that ain't. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:38:30 And then you catch them saying them. The fiddle sticks was one in our family that like a lot of people, a lot of kids thought, a lot of our families thought was a cuss word to like seven or eight. But then you catch them saying it. So like they think they're cussing. Right. Right. Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 00:38:46 Yeah. That's all I got. I've definitely, it's funny because I can think of examples of the opposite happening of one of my boys not knowing that a cuss word was a cuss word and just saying it. I can think of two examples right now, which is, of course,
Starting point is 00:39:01 I don't give a fuck about either of these, but they were both just kind of funny. know he uh it was bishop both times we're on the houseboat once and thompson's son uh went off the slide into like a floaty on the water or something like that and bishop was telling us that he did it as he was explaining he was like yeah and then he flew off and hit the thing of bouncing the water and i was like damn right and uh you know, Katie, of course, is like, Bishop, whatever. And I was just laughing because I thought it was funny.
Starting point is 00:39:38 And then, but he didn't get any trouble or anything because he, he's funny. He used the word right, but he never had any context to assume that you couldn't say it, I guess. Yeah, of course. And then the other one was, and this one was way more direct because Katie just said it. And then he said it right back. He was talking about the cat. And the cat was doing some cat shit or whatever.
Starting point is 00:40:01 And Katie goes, I think she's pissed off. and Bishop goes, she gets pissed off a lot. The first time I ever did it, it's one of the hardest I've ever seen my grandmother laugh, who my grandmother was a sweet church lady that never even sniffed alcohol nor cigarettes, never cursed a day in her life. She was that. But she was also someone who like,
Starting point is 00:40:25 it's not that she wanted to hear dirty jokes, but when she would hear a dirty joke every now and then, you could tell that she was like, well, I didn't, I didn't mean. for this to happen so God can't be mad at me, but I got to have it. You know what I mean? Like, it was just like a thing that happened to her. So the first time I cursed, we were driving to Florida and I was playing the... Do you actually remember this? Like, yeah. So how old do you think you, I'm fascinated by this? How old do you think you were? I was probably seven, maybe,
Starting point is 00:40:57 something like that, seven or eight. Yeah, I mean, I remember the van. I remember us all being in there. I think it's common for people to remember events that become family stories because... Right. We tell it a lot. And it got burned in your memory then. Like, your mom probably told it the week after and the week after that. Yeah. And when you did remember it, and then that burned that memory in there.
Starting point is 00:41:17 Yeah. I do have a lot of insane memories from being that age. But this one in particular, we're driving down the road in our Toyota Previa egg van. And I'm doing the... I'm getting 18-wheeler's... to honk, you know, giving them this gimmick right here. Of course. And I remember I had gotten like 18 in a row to do it. And I was pumped because I was going to like go for 20. And I get right there and I'm doing this and I see the guy see me.
Starting point is 00:41:48 And I'm just like, hey buddy, hey buddy. And he doesn't, he doesn't do it. And I just screamed, you bastard. And my family was like, what the, my mom was like, what the hell? And my granny was just, I mean, wheezing laughing. And I'd heard it on the Simpsons or something, you know. Yeah. That's a good one. Another good one is booze. And this might just be like in Christian households, but like, I can remember kids thinking
Starting point is 00:42:21 like sparkling apple juice was booze. And they can see like a 16 year old drink it and they're like whispering about it and they're talking shit, you know. we me and my buddies did that once it's embarrassing and retro you know whatever dipshit teenagers but we got fake drunk yeah we because it was uh it was margarita mix is what it was and we did not realize we did not realize that that was not margaritas and i and i'll tell and i i don't know how this is going to make me sound i don't know if it's going to sound like i'm bullshitting or not but i can remember like i can remember thinking like
Starting point is 00:42:59 I don't, I feel like I'm missing something. Am I like being confused? I'm just sick. Yeah, right. Yeah, exactly. Like I just kind of feel gross in my stuff. Yeah, exactly. But everybody was kind of, you know,
Starting point is 00:43:13 bullshit and like they could totally feel it, dude. Nobody did anything crazy. Nobody like fucking went streaking in the backyard or nothing like that pretending to be hammered. But like, you know, everybody was acting like, yeah, you feel, yeah, I think I feel, yeah, man, like that type of shit. And it was just a whole,
Starting point is 00:43:29 fucking bottle of margarita mix that we drank between like three or four of us. That was such a, that was such an integral part of when you're a kid and you start experimenting was everyone sitting around there just asking, do you feel it? Do you feel it? Do you feel it? As I remember, the first time I ever dipped, I was in the back of my buddy's truck. He was a senior on the football team, and I was a freshman. So he was driving around.
Starting point is 00:43:56 and he was like, you want a dip? And I was just trying to be cool. So I was like, well, yeah, yeah, I'd like a dip. So I put the dip in. I'm sitting there and I'm like, you know, getting ready to spit it and stuff. And my buddy's beside me, my buddy Will, Randy's boy. And he just kept poking me. He's like, do you feel it?
Starting point is 00:44:13 Do you feel it? And I was like, I think. And he slapped my leg and was like, can you feel that? And I was like, wait, what? And he goes, are you like numb or something? I was like, no. And then he slapped me. Then he slapped me on the back and goes, can you,
Starting point is 00:44:26 feel that and as he did it made me swallow the spit. Oh no. And we, yeah, we had to pull over so I could puke off a bridge and we had just gotten back from Golden Corral. So boy, it was a lot. Did the guy driving know that it wasn't your fault that you were vomiting? Yeah. Did everybody know that you got hit and swallowed spit or was it just like a damn pressure started puking immediately? No, because I immediately said something when Will did that. I was like, God damn it, motherfucker, you made me swallow my spit. And I think, I think actually, I think actually when I said that, dusty in the front was just like, I better pull over.
Starting point is 00:45:05 You know what I mean? I mean, probably. I mean, I dated a girl from a different school. We'll call her Annie. Wet as pussy ever. Anyway, wet to see her. Wetest or worst. Wetest or worst.
Starting point is 00:45:21 Hattest. Hilarious. Not her name. Not her name. and went to a house party at her house, and her brother will call him Bill. I got to change your both names. I still follow him on Facebook.
Starting point is 00:45:36 He's still hilarious. Can't spell for shit. But if you can decipher all the vows and syllables, God, he's so funny. He sold this girl oregano at the party and then rolled it for her. And like we watched her, she started doing cartwheels and stuff. And we were laughing at her and making fun of her. And then she peoped.
Starting point is 00:45:55 And then we were like, you can't smoke oregano. Right. Well, that's like, yeah, now, but at the time we were like, was it a regano? Yeah, right. What the hell? Maybe she, maybe you can get high off of a regano. My cousin, Trey put, he'd never dipped before. Rest in peace.
Starting point is 00:46:11 No, he's still around. That's my other cousin who dead. Right. Rest in peace. He had never dipped before, and he was a big jokester and a fuck-around type dude. And he got all. offered snuff or whatever. And he was like, yeah, sure, I'll do it.
Starting point is 00:46:29 And he takes it and he stuffs it all into both his lower and upper lip. Oh, my God. Like, he did that, like, filled up both the top and the bottom and was trying, and was doing like a character while doing it, like talking about deer and spitting all over the place or whatever. Like, it was kind of funny. But, I mean, it was funny, but it lasted like maybe eight minutes or something for he was violently throwing up over the side of the bridge we were all hanging out on and fishing off and shit.
Starting point is 00:47:02 You're like, dip sick. You can't just do that. Yeah. It's hard to top dipsick. I've never been dipsick because I've never really dipped in my life, as I've told you all before, pretty sure. Because I've always had a thing with spit. Yeah. So I've never done it.
Starting point is 00:47:20 I got dipsick at like 11 and then dipsick at football camp my freshman year. Yep, I've also been dipsick at football camp. Hey, let's take a break real quick, and we'll be right back right after this. Hey, we're back, everybody. Yeah, dipsick. I've been lucky to avoid it. I've got one more of my silly things, if y'all want to give me your input on it. I would, I've been loving them so far, finding out that your hates dead girl.
Starting point is 00:47:51 Save this one for the end, because we're, I don't know. We'll see, but you guys both grew up in the church, but not. Catholic. We're all married. Yada yada. So I thought it might be of interest. Also, seen on Reddit, of course, over the Christmas break. So there's this lady, right,
Starting point is 00:48:09 who, while her and her husband were having a rough patch, right? She had an affair with some dude. Okay. Then, who is, who is this? You cut out just a little bit. Who is this? Just some lady. Just some lady on the internet. It's just like a
Starting point is 00:48:26 think of it as a thought experiment, I guess. but these are real people, at least reportedly. So some lady her and her husband were having a rough patch, she has an affair. The affair ends, the rough patch ends. She's happy with her husband again. They've fixed their shit. Everything's cool. But she never told them that she ever had an affair that never came up.
Starting point is 00:48:44 They're both pretty hardcore Catholic, her and her husband. I go to Mass every Sunday, all this shit. She's got a lot of guilt about doing this. So in confession one week, she tells the priest what happens. She tells the priest she had an affair. The priest says for her to get whatever the Catholics call it, absolution or whatever the fuck it is. For her to do penance and shit,
Starting point is 00:49:11 she's got to, you know, save so many Hail Mary's and whatever else. But also very importantly, she has to come clean and tell her husband about what happened, right? And that's like part of his official priest diagnosis. Yeah, so she's got to do it or she goes to hell. because they get to make the penalties up. So, but she's like, no, that ain't it. I ain't doing that, right? So she don't do that.
Starting point is 00:49:36 And again, her husband's also a big Catholic. They got to go to this church together. When the husband is in confession, like a month later, the priest says some, like, leading, coded thing to get an idea of whether or not the wife had confessed to the husband or not, right? Yeah, he should be killed. When it was clear that the husband did not. know what the priest was talking about.
Starting point is 00:50:00 The priest then straight up told him that his wife had had an affair, right? And so you're already saying no. So I find that very... Yeah, he's not allowed to do that. He has to actually stop being a priest. That's true. It's supposed to be an instant excommunication.
Starting point is 00:50:18 Like there's no... The Catholic Church acknowledges zero exceptions for the covenant of the holy confession or whatever the fuck they call it. You can fuck a little boy but you can tell on somebody. Right. Okay. See, now we're getting into some of it for me.
Starting point is 00:50:37 Oh, wow. Part of the reason that I find some of this interesting is because it's like okay, it's like that priest broke the most holy vow that any priest has because obviously they don't make a holy vow not to fuck little boys because that hits for them or however that works. But anyway, I love it.
Starting point is 00:50:53 He broke the most, you know, holy sacrament in their order, but it's also like, but was he kind of being a bro? No. And like, do I give a... And why do I give a fuck? Because I don't believe in God or the Pope or none of that shit. So I don't fucking care.
Starting point is 00:51:10 But do you believe in like, do you believe in like, I don't know, like sacredness between people or honesty or integrity? Because like, I don't... It offends me that someone would tell something to somebody in confidence that they think is protected
Starting point is 00:51:25 by a vow that person took and then they just rat on them like that. There's, yeah, no, it's, it's fucked up. Like, you, you shouldn't be a lot. Well, you, you're not allowed to do that. But, like, uh, there, I think there's one instance where it's not protected, and that is if what they have told you is about a future crime. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:51:48 Like, if they tell you, thinking of lawyers. Yeah. No, I thought, I mean, I, I mean, this is based on what the people on Reddit were saying. It's not like I fact check any of it. But they specifically covered that, and according to the comment section, that is not true. There is no exception for a priest anyway, like whatsoever. Where I'm getting it from is the show Father Brown and the show Daredevil. So, yeah, it's not like I'd read it in a book.
Starting point is 00:52:14 But I had always thought that, like, you can, if you confess to a past crime, there's nothing that they won't do anything. But if you tell them, like, I've been having these weird thoughts, I feel like I want to kill. my wife, then I thought that then they could be like, hey, I got to tell somebody about this shit. I also thought the same thing. I thought the same thing, but according to these random internet commenters is not true. So maybe they're wrong and I'm wrong and you're right. I don't know, but Drew says it's lawyers. And I also thought that.
Starting point is 00:52:45 And Manderor may be psychologists. Yeah, therapists. I think therapists, that's a thing too. But here's how I feel about the situation. Number one, that dim rules is the rules for a reason. if it'd be one thing if the lady if she was cheating on her husband regularly and like he was worried that this guy might catch a venereal disease or something I don't know but like it's already done and here's the situation like realistically I think we've talked about this before her confessing is to him is kind of selfish because it's only making her feel better it's going to make him feel worse like she like I've got all this guilt. I need to tell him. It's like, well, guess what?
Starting point is 00:53:27 You got to just live with that fucking guilt because he's happy right now. So if you tell him, oh, you're not going to have any guilt, but your husband's fucking life is going to be destroyed. So like, yeah, I mean, here's, let's just flip it around. I hear you on that because I kind of think that too sometimes ignorance is bliss when it comes to shit like that. But at the same time, it feels like usually stuff like that always eventually comes out no matter what at some point.
Starting point is 00:53:53 And when it, and when, and because that is true, when it does, it's worse. It's way worse. And so it's like, if you could somehow magically guarantee that it would never be found out about, I guess maybe it would be doing them a favor to just never tell them because ignorance is bliss. But I feel like you just, I just think that's really complicated and nuanced thing. Because I was going to say, if you found out, if you somehow found out that one of your best friends' wife was fucking around on him, what would you do? do. I would, if I, like, caught her red-handed or something, I probably would say, it really depends on which one of my friends, because there's some of my friends, I'm almost, I'm almost
Starting point is 00:54:40 as close with their wife as I am them. It also, to me, would depend on, like, what state of mind the dude was in. I think what I would probably do is, if this never happens again, I didn't see it, but this ain't ever happening again. You know what I'm saying? Or I'm going to have to tell homie. But I don't, I don't know. Again, it really depend on, it would really depend on the person. Like, I don't know. Like, that's, I can tell you this. Like whether they'd want to know. Yeah. And also just like, fuck, man, I don't, I don't know. But it's, it's a little bit more nuanced than that. But I'll tell you this. If I, if Amber was, had cheated on. on me and it would have been absolutely guaranteed that the only way I would find out is if she
Starting point is 00:55:28 told me, then I would hope to God she didn't. You know what I mean? Because like ignorance is truly bliss in that situation. But like, there's some buddies that if I found out, it's because I don't, their wife don't hit for me. Hell yeah. I would fucking run tell that shit immediately. But then there's some who like, I really value their whole marriage and I don't want it to fall apart. So I'd just be like, you made a mistake. You know. You know, whatever. Oh, I don't know. Let me say, first of all, if this story wasn't about a priest,
Starting point is 00:56:00 it's fucked up to me that a priest broke that sacred thing. Yeah. Not because it's sacred to me, but because it's sacred to the people who were in that confession box. I think that's fucked up. But if it was like she got drunk and told a dude who happened to know her husband, yeah, that guy. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:56:17 By the way. 50 at best, you know. Part of me thinks he should. I think I would tell. I do. As I'm understanding it, he's my homie. Right. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:56:29 Yeah. I think I'd tell because I'd want to know. If I go based on. I would very much want to know. Yeah. If I'm as much like my dad as I think I am, if I'm as much like my dad as I think I am, then there's actual precedent set for me definitely telling my buddy because this happened to my dad.
Starting point is 00:56:47 He found out that one of his best friend's wife was cheating on him. That was an affair, though, correct? It was an affair. To me, that's like you got to. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But the thing is, is like, my dad also didn't want to go in there with just some, he said, she said, conjecture shit. So my dad hired a private investigator to do like a month's worth of work to find the pattern or whatever, got pictures, gave him to my dad in a file. And he went to his friend with that because he's like, I didn't want to just come in here.
Starting point is 00:57:20 I didn't want to come say this. And then her be like, no, I'm not. He's a fucking idiot. He's like, I needed to know 100%. And here you go, buddy. I'm sorry. Yeah. I mean, I think you, I would tell also.
Starting point is 00:57:34 And I mean, I'm with Drew pretty much. So it's like, so if you would tell, that's why I said, it's like if you remove the holy vow part of it all, it's like the priest was kind of being a bro. But I agree. That's true. But I do. But I do agree also that. Like, because it is so sacred.
Starting point is 00:57:53 It's such a big fucking deal. He cheated too. He cheated on that woman. Like, and God. Just do that. God don't exist. But he cheated on that woman. That woman went in there.
Starting point is 00:58:04 They had vows, literal vows that she was relying upon. The priest and a woman deserve each other is what's happening here. I think maybe there's another route, which is where you say, hey, if you don't tell them, I will. and give them the opportunity to do it. You know what I'm saying? I tell you, you get your breaklines cut, though. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, that's true.
Starting point is 00:58:29 Give them time to make you look like an asshole. She goes and gets the dude. She's blowing on the side or whatever, and that guy comes over. They cut your brake lines. They steal all your money somehow and they run off to Mexico together or whatever. And that, you know, we've all seen that movie.
Starting point is 00:58:43 I would just hate... You're dead and you don't even know where his woman is. Yeah, I would just hate for my buddy to forever associate that terrible thing that happened to him with me. But that's like, I don't say I don't understand that, but that's like extremely selfish. And I'm not just trying to like make you feel bad,
Starting point is 00:58:58 but like, but like you're saying like, On my behalf? Yes, because you're saying, oh no, he will associate negative thoughts with me. It ain't got shit to do with you. I mean, I know it doesn't.
Starting point is 00:59:10 It has shit to do with them, which is why she should be the one to tell them. Again, I'm going to do it if she don't. I don't think that's, I don't think, well, I mean, yeah, it's literally what I fucking open with. I don't think that's a hard ass. Like, I'm, he's going to find this out.
Starting point is 00:59:23 I'm going to give you the chance to tell him in whatever way that you want to tell him. And, you know, if you don't, then I'm going to tell him. But, like, why the fuck? Like, like, you said, it don't have nothing to do with me. So it's like, you know, I saw this. You all going to work this shit at. No, you're right, though. Now that I'm thinking about the fucking breakline shit, I'm no longer, I'm no longer in.
Starting point is 00:59:44 Or just time to cover her tracks and start telling him how shitty you are. laid of groundwork for that, you know what I mean? And that's why my dad... Tell them you hit on her. Yeah. And, but that's why my dad's a G. Because, like, my dad was like, no, I'm going to get fucking actual evidence. Because, like, if you do, because I, they're, like, if you do just go tell one of your
Starting point is 01:00:06 buddy, so-and-so's been cheating on you, their first is going to be like, wait, you must have got that wrong. Like, no, no, no, no, no. It's probably just a rumor or whatever. And they're not going to believe you. And then you're an asshole. And then if she can come back with a better story, then all of a sudden, you're on the fucking out.
Starting point is 01:00:19 bro. Imagine that from that guy's perspective where it's like it's like your buddy's like listen dude I hate to break it to you but your wife's kind of a whore right and then he pulls out a file right? He's like been building a case and shit he's like usually here we got exhibits
Starting point is 01:00:39 a through H I'm sorry that would hit for me I'm sorry that would really hit for me not the whole scenario but that aspect of it I would be like man you fucking love me and you know me and you knew what I'd need
Starting point is 01:00:53 also I'm realizing guys is this mainly what private investigators do? Oh yeah I say this is like I'd say this is 98% of the private investigators' job is this type of shit
Starting point is 01:01:06 monogamy and marriage is so wild there's like 19 cottage industries just associated with you know the fact that if we break up somebody's got to get the house yeah right yeah dude but fuck man
Starting point is 01:01:21 okay here's a tough one you see people with good relationship probably not our age because at our age it'd be like well I think we're coming to the end of when it would be not acceptable but anyway let me do the scenario
Starting point is 01:01:35 just like hammered and you definitely saw him kiss somebody at a bar not for very long shit faced then what do you do yeah that's I mean it's not an affair it probably
Starting point is 01:01:48 isn't going to end their marriage. It's like, I think I'm my own goddamn business. Bad to say, because like this, you know, it's like,
Starting point is 01:01:56 that's probably not going to end their marriage, but it will start a fight and make there be a lot of resentment and stuff. So like, is this worth it? Yeah, I think I'm my mom
Starting point is 01:02:04 and God damn business in that one. I guess I agree. That wouldn't hit either, but I mean, no, it wouldn't hit. It depends on the friend, too. Yeah,
Starting point is 01:02:14 and you know what? It depends on if I like that bitch or not. I'm saying, I'm saying, because I swear to you, like, I was thinking about all the scenarios, and I was like, well, if it was his wife, I would fucking, I would beat her to the house. You know what I mean? I'd be like, oh, you ain't going to believe this shit. And it would hit for me because there's so many friends I've lost over the years where it's not, we still love each other, but we don't hang out because of day wife.
Starting point is 01:02:42 You know what I mean? And I'd love to have them back in my life. It's only happened to me once, but, uh, yeah. Well, so what you do, Corey, is you hire a Puerto Rican pool boy or something to seduce their life. And then you catch them. And then you've got a private investigator to see all of that stuff. Right. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:03:02 And then you've got to hope that nobody catches you hiring the people and then, you know. That's true. And unravels from there. If we discussed the, like, TikTok trend of people asking other people on TikTok who are hot to hit on to shoot their shot via social media, media with their significant other, and then that person posted it as their content? No. This was a trend. It's really gross.
Starting point is 01:03:26 It is so compelling, though. That's a fucking nightmare, dude. Because they post screenshots, and it's tough because 99% of the time that I've seen, that they do end up being like, yeah, here's my number. You know what? Let's meet up or whatever. 99% of the time, you could feel the person in the relationship. trying to say no.
Starting point is 01:03:49 Right. They would pause. They would drag it out. They'd be coy. It was like, you don't want to do. You're just pulling for them. Don't do this. Don't do this.
Starting point is 01:03:58 And then there was a couple of them. And this was also real compelling where they would act like that. And then they would be like, I got a girlfriend. But the girlfriend would still be mad because it would be like, yeah, but it took him five days and all this flirting to bring it up, which is fair. But it's like, you're pulling for you. You're like, come on, man. It's a trap. Don't do it.
Starting point is 01:04:17 Don't do it. And then, but I mean, there's a guy who does it too, a good-looking guy who does it. And ooh, he gets them women. People are so fucking disgusting. God damn. Like, I saw another one that was going around on TikTok or, yeah, it's TikTok where dudes would like, they would come up and they'd have their camera and they would see couples and they would be like, hey, y'all in love with each other, blah, blah, blah.
Starting point is 01:04:42 And he goes, and he asked the girl, he goes, give him your phone. And she's like, oh, why? And they go, open her Snapchat. And she'll be like, oh, I ain't got Snapchat. And he was like, they were just like trying to entrap people in to find out if they were like sending titties to other people. Yeah, I've seen that one. And then another one is, this your best friend? You got a man.
Starting point is 01:05:04 Call her a man right now and say you want to come over and chill without her. Yeah. And it's one dude, one dude hung up and then called her, called his girl. was like, are you with Carrie? And she's like, no. And he's like, we need to check that bitch. And it was fucking awesome. That's great.
Starting point is 01:05:26 Well, plug all your shit, boys. I'll do go. Yeah, go to traycrouter.com. And look at all my dates and shit. What the fuck? That's some yab and have a do shit right there. A bleep, a bleak, a bleak. Yeah, I know.
Starting point is 01:05:43 I don't know why I did that, but I did do that on purpose. purpose. You get it on purpose? Yeah. Oh, okay. That's fine then. It's so wild. Whatever.
