Starting point is 00:00:00 What's new, what's new with Menace? What's up everybody and welcome to another edition of What's New Pod. I'm Menace, I'm joined by Bortz, aka Brett. He's an audio expert and syndication expert with the Woody Show Morning Show that you can hear across the United States and around the world on AFN. He has an assistant, his assistant's name is Eric. Sometimes we call him Nick Soundwave. He works on the woody show plus we have randy yo
Starting point is 00:00:26 who is a radio dj himself on alt 987 in los angeles plus he works on the woody show and joining us from houston texas that would be tyler from the sean salisbury show which is a sports morning radio show tyler texas is all the way. Are you walking around with no mask? No, I'm still wearing it. Okay, because I'm just saying not to body shame. I don't know if you're in the right shape to be walking around with no mask. I thought Madness was going to be like, well,
Starting point is 00:00:56 you know, because some places are still demanding masks or something. No, no, no. It's just concern for him to stay alive. I mean, I'll be that person to burst his bubbles and say, you know, Tyler, if you go see a sports game, you may still have to wear a mask. Sorry, buddy. No, I know. I know that like all the major businesses are technically private owned businesses and you could still have to go by their rules.
Starting point is 00:01:16 And let me add also, I am not in the body shape to be walking around with no mask on. Do you feel like they're just doing that because of the power grid going out and now they just want to kiss your ass and make you forget about that um they're not really concerned definitely not what no it's it's not that so no listen listen listen you're getting played man here's the thing is that a lot of people okay a lot of people don't realize outside of the state that even before I got here, Texas has been 75% open for a while, and they've had no problem. Well, no crap, but I'm just saying they're doing the 100% thing right now
Starting point is 00:01:54 against recommendations because they want you to forget that your ass is freezing with no power. Don't you find it kind of ironic that the governor said everything's open? However, tours of his mansion. No, not allowed. He's saving his ass, dude. All right, guys. Also, San Diego Comic-Con E3 and Anime Expo canceled.
Starting point is 00:02:14 The geek gatherings will not happen until 2022. But Life is Beautiful Music Festival is happening in Las Vegas September 17th and 19th. Tickets are on sale right now as we speak. That's good news. I saw Vegas was having a bunch of stuff lined up. A bunch of music festivals besides that. A bunch of other things. That's pretty dope. Just a matter of time before people start announcing big things in Texas too. I was talking to them about how they shut down. What are you talking about? The whole state's open, man. They can just do everything now. Just whatever you want. It doesn't matter. Comic-Con shut down. What are you talking about? The whole state's open, man. They can just do everything now. Just do whatever you want.
Starting point is 00:02:45 It doesn't matter. Comic-Con shut down in San Diego, but I'm like, you know, Austin is a pretty young, hip town. Well, they have South by Southwest. They also announced Austin City Limits Music Festival is going to be happening in October. So it's going to be all open everywhere. I saw a flyer for a festival in Florida next month with Diplo and stuff. Oh, it's going down for real. Well, dude, Florida's been like the Wild Wild West.
Starting point is 00:03:09 More and more people are starting to move out to either Florida or Texas. More like media personalities, I suppose. Because it's open now. All this stuff, though, costs money. Have you guys been checking the news every day? Are you concerned about getting a $1,400 stimulus check? Are you excited or not excited? I'm assuming excited to get this have you guys been checking the news every day are you concerned about getting a 1400 stimulus
Starting point is 00:03:25 check are you excited or not excited i'm assuming excited to get this 1400 are you waiting on it are you hoping that it comes soon i would help a lot as far as like paying off some debt and stuff we're talking about the biden one right the biden 1400 yes i just got a letter in the mail a couple days ago i'm supposed to get the Trump 1200. Nice. Apparently very soon. You still never got that? I don't know if I did. Maybe I did.
Starting point is 00:03:49 Maybe I didn't. My girlfriend never got it. I got a letter that said it should be, you should have in like seven days. I'm like, what? All right. Via check? Direct deposit. What?
Starting point is 00:03:58 Yeah. Hold on. Let me see. If it was direct deposit, it should have been given to you way long ago. I'm sure Tyler was all over it tyler did you get your money i actually have no idea i have to go check oh wait what do you mean are you guys millionaires this is the same to go check this is weird no idea i got a direct deposit on january 4th from the irs but why did i get a letter a week ago saying i'm getting another
Starting point is 00:04:21 check hey man i know to the scent on how much money I have in my accounts. I haven't been waiting around for this money to come because I don't want to count on it. Yeah. Yeah. So I just kind of like, well, if I didn't get it, I don't get it. So you haven't pre-spent it. That's basically what I'm asking.
Starting point is 00:04:34 Yeah. No, no. I haven't really been waiting or paying attention to it because every time I read it, oh, it's going to pass. Oh, it's not going to pass. So I really haven't been hanging on, you know. We all expect to get screwed here. So we just
Starting point is 00:04:45 don't count on money period from the government good stuff um speaking of randy and money what will randy do for money on the woody show next week i believe is the payoff doing a call with your mom a uh interview roulette but are you disappointed on the amount of money that you've been spinning because you haven't had a big win yet. So what is the denominations? So the wheel, so 250, 350. I think I haven't gotten past, what was it, 500? Because the first time it was like pick your punishment or pick your challenge, I guess.
Starting point is 00:05:17 And then from there, the denomination was chosen by you guys. Yeah, but then you went up 100 per shot for that one, right? No, I know, but that's the thing, though. Yeah, you're not making it $100 per shot for that one, right? No, I know, but that's the thing, though. You're not making it over $400, which sucks. You should be making, like, spending it better. Yeah, because what's the largest number you can spend? $1,000, which is terrifying, but also exciting, because I'm like, yes, I get $1,000, but then it's like, oh, God, I get $1,000.
Starting point is 00:05:36 Yeah, but what do you got to do to earn $1,000? Yeah, exactly. Oh, we're going to have some ideas. Do you feel kind of like a cheap whore every time you spin it, like, really low? You're like, what do I have to do for this $200? I'd be disappointed if I kept on spinning low. It's so awkward because it's bittersweet because you're like, oh, sweet, money.
Starting point is 00:05:52 But then it's like, oh my gosh, what am I going to have to do? Well, you should start looking at it more like, okay, in one day or a week, depending on if you did the nails or whatever, how much does this add to my hourly wage? And then you'll feel better about it. Well, the problem, too, is consistently spinning so low is, by default,
Starting point is 00:06:10 we have to kind of make these challenges interesting and more challenging. So then it's like you kind of, not to use the phrase, blow your load early. So it's like, okay, a week-long thing is $350. So when you get to $1,000, what are you even going to do? We're going to shoot you out of a cannon, obviously. We've got to find a cannon big enough. I could come up with some ideas. If you want to see some past videos of Randy of
Starting point is 00:06:31 what he would do for money, like getting shot with paintball guns, wearing Cardi B nails, and many other things. Eating dog food. You can check out the videos. Just click on IGTV at The Woody Show on Instagram. You guys want to get into some food news?
Starting point is 00:06:47 Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Dude, Eric, I think you might be all over this. Sonic is making hard seltzers based on its slushy flavors. Orange, pineapple, mango, guava, melon, melody, cherry lemonade, classic lemonade, and Lemon Berry. Is there a hard seltzer in it, or are they just flavored slushies? All in, all out.
Starting point is 00:07:10 It's a canned hard seltzer. Oh, okay. I'm kind of down, yeah. It's just like a regular seltzer. Yeah, I'm down then. But it's based on their slushy flavors. Oh, okay, okay. Yes, yes.
Starting point is 00:07:17 I thought I was going to have to go to Sonic. Oh, so it's like the syrup. I thought I was going to have to go to Sonic for like a slushy and, you know. No. I'm in, yeah. Hell yeah. You can buy six packs of it, yeah. It's going to be available everywhere.
Starting point is 00:07:26 I'm down. Okay. I need a Sonic trip anyways, and I can go pick those up and have both. In other news, Taco Bell is testing deep fried cheese curds all in, all out. Oh, my gosh. Yes. I guess we know Tyler's answer. Tyler, what was that?
Starting point is 00:07:41 Yes. Yeah, cheese curds, I actually never tried them ever in my life until I went to the fair in Des Moines, and they were quite delicious. If you don't know what a cheese curd is, it's basically fried cheese, little pieces of cheese that are fried. I had it at Buffalo Wild Wings on a burger. Yeah, that's where I found it. It was a Wisconsin burger.
Starting point is 00:08:00 They are different from a mozzarella stick. It's very different if anyone has had that. Are we talking about just deep fried macaroni and cheese right now? No, no, no. So just think of little cheese chunks. You know like the little square pieces of cheese that you would see? Yeah, yeah. Imagine that deep fried.
Starting point is 00:08:16 Oh, okay. So it's like a little cheese nugget. Yeah, a little cheese nugget. There is a place in Burbank. Fried cheese is just the absolute best. It's the greatest thing. If anyone wants to try it around here, try it again. There's a place in Burbank. Fried cheese is just the absolute best. It's the greatest thing. If anyone wants to try it around here, try it again. There's a place in Burbank, California called the Burbank Pub. It's pirate-themed menace. Oh, yes.
Starting point is 00:08:32 You've been talking about this place forever. Yes, and they do have some awesome Nashville hot chicken, and they have cheese curds. I'm surprised cheese curds haven't blown up the way they are now. Well, because people are trying to be all healthy like this. Come on. Pete's Coffee, right? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:44 They're set to release. Bort's going to be all healthy. Like this. Come on. Pete's Coffee, right? Yeah. They're set to release. Bort's going to be excited about this. 100% plant-based breakfast sandwich. I'm down. I don't care. I'm in. Why not? I mean, I'll still eat it if you bring it in.
Starting point is 00:08:57 Well, come on. Like the Beyond Meat Dunkin' Sandwiches? Those are delicious. They're great. Dunkin' Donuts does a really good job of making me not hate myself when i eat not mean products again i'll eat it speaking of duncan they are adding avocado toast to its spring menu all in all out i'm all out i mean i'm down it's probably tastes good so yeah i don't know how often i would actually eat it depends on the quality of the avocado because sometimes some of the avocado at fast food places, they taste super chemically. And water.
Starting point is 00:09:25 Yeah, and not good. But I'm willing to try it. What if we take it and take the Beyond Meat sausage patty, slap it on there, then get some cheese up on that? Oh, hell yeah. Double stack it? Yeah. All right, you guys want some fast food facts?
Starting point is 00:09:38 Yeah. It's not very fast anymore. Number one. Chick-fil-A started solely in shopping malls in 1967 in Atlanta. Can you believe that? Only in shopping malls. And then they branched out and became huge. Arby's has the world record for the longest curly fry at 38 inches.
Starting point is 00:09:59 Wow. I believe that. That's pretty cool. Arby's does it. You pull one out and it's like a magic trick. You're pulling out like a magic hat or something. Especially if you it. You pull one out, and it's like a magic trick. You're pulling out a magic hat or something. Especially if you accidentally get a straight one that somehow made it through.
Starting point is 00:10:10 It's like two feet long. That's a three-foot-long curly fry. That's a big boy. Yep. I love the seasoning on the curly fries. They're so good. Yeah. I am down with Arby's fries no matter what.
Starting point is 00:10:20 All right. Former employer of Randy, Panda Express. The owners of Panda Express are college sweethearts, and they went to Baker University in Baldwin, Kansas. The first Sbarro did not sell pizza in 1956. They basically just sold Italian food, but not pizza. All that good stuff. I don't think I ever get an actual piece of pizza from there. Really?
Starting point is 00:10:42 I only get the pasta or the strombolis. I miss the before times when you could get free samples the long long ago yeah the long long ago oh man samples there there's always those mall places like the philly cheesesteak spot and the sabaros who just give you hey who wants to walk by me and my fiancee and i'm always like yeah i'll take one and she no no no and i walk by with six steps away i'm like yep leanne i always say get the damn sample and give it to me thank you oh my god how hard is it my girlfriend is the same thing why can't we just be on the same page for just grab it no matter what it is just get it and i'll grab all the
Starting point is 00:11:13 samples take it even if you don't want it i will eat it the worst is the worst is when she gets it and then she throws it away i'm like yo what give it to me this was uh this was a couple years ago me and one of my really good friends, we were broke as hell. This is before I got into radio. We're really hungry, right? So there's a Costco right next door to his apartment. And I had got a Costco card because I bought my phone through Costco a couple months earlier. So I said, hey, I have an idea.
Starting point is 00:11:40 Let's go in, grab all the free samples, and we'll just count that as lunch. Dude, I used to do that, too, when I lived in my car. Check this out. But I didn't have a Costco card. You know what I used to do? I used to walk up to the front door and I would hold up my cell phone and pretend that I was talking to somebody in the Costco. I'm like, oh, hey, can I go inside? And I would go there and I would eat so many samples that the little sample ladies cut me off. So Menace, my brother did the exact same thing, except for instead of doing it on the phone, there and i would eat so many samples that the little sample ladies cut me off so menace my brother did the exact same thing except for instead of doing it on the phone they just said oh the guy that went in right before them that that was their dad and so they went around and they got all the
Starting point is 00:12:15 free samples and they tried they went and got seconds they tried going for thirds but everybody cut them off so they went to the bathroom switched switched shirts, and got more free samples. Here's my thing, though. So much effort. You guys put in all this effort and work to get samples, but you went to the one spot that sells a hot dog and a drink for like $1.50. No, that's what I'm saying. I was just about to say that.
Starting point is 00:12:36 It's like we were that broke that we couldn't even afford the $1.50 hot dog. Yeah, besides, awesome. I was that broke. Also, Randy, come on. You're really going to argue against free food? You of all people who is struggling, strapping for cash right now? Me and my brother,
Starting point is 00:12:49 my older brother, he would call one of his friends over to the house to meet us at Costco because he had a card. And we did this every weekend for lunch. And then at the end, we'd go get pizza for like two bucks. Shout out to Costco. If it wasn't for Costcoco i wouldn't be here today because i'd be dead because i died of starvation same same going back to sabaro real quick sabaro
Starting point is 00:13:11 started in 1956 in brooklyn shout out to brooklyn speaking about brooklyn um you guys do a podcast called tailgater sports if people don't know you can follow at tailgater sports on instagram and go to tailgater sports.com for the sports podcast and brooklyn dude they're coming up the nets everybody laughed at them with those trades with james harden and uh what's the other guy that never shows up to games which one kevin around or kai ruby yeah take your pick but i was looking dude they've been killing it they've lost maybe two games oh yeah i mean, they have three of probably the top ten players in the world, so they probably should be. Whether or not they translate into playoff wins, that's another story. What do you think?
Starting point is 00:13:52 I don't think it will translate into playoff wins because Eric and I were talking about this not too long ago about how the All-Star weekend is coming up and half these guys don't even want to be there and half of them are calling out. And it's like these guys openly talk about it nowadays. They don't even try until the playoffs roll along. Also, talking about basketball, LeBron James has been complaining about the All-Star game,
Starting point is 00:14:16 and suddenly he has this ankle injury. Ankle injury, and then they announced a new Space Jam with all the screen grabs. So it's like, hey, guys, I can't be out this weekend for the All-Star Game, but make sure you guys go check out the new Space Jam. Yeah, I'm not sure if he'll still go. I think he might still be there. But I don't know. The All-Star Game is all – it's for the fans, for the fans.
Starting point is 00:14:33 I'm like, no, it's for a cash grab. And before the season started, the NBA Players Association said there wouldn't be, and now they're roped into it. When it's like these guys are like, hey, you have to go to Atlanta. It's for one game, one night. They can't leave the hotel. And usually the All-Star Weekend is like – A big party. Yeah, it's like these guys are like, hey, you have to go to Atlanta. It's for one game, one night. They can't leave the hotel. And usually the All-Star weekend is like a big party. Yeah, it's the party.
Starting point is 00:14:49 You get all the NBA guys. Strippers fly in for the weekend, make a bunch of cash. But now it's like, yeah, it's a huge event. And now it's like, okay, come here. Let's get our advertiser money. And don't leave your damn rooms. So do you think LeBron is faking it? Seabass here for BlueChew.com.
Starting point is 00:15:07 Go to BlueChew.com. Make sure you use that promo code Woody to get your first month free, just $5 for shipping. And after entering all your information, you will get a real doctor's prescription from a real pharmacy straight to your door, delivered contactless, as they say, with the actual same medications like you would get
Starting point is 00:15:25 with a Viagra or Cialis, but at much cheaper price. And again, right to your door, no hassle, no going anywhere. Yeah. Oh, he's totally faking it. Plus, I was going to say, too, there's no way that all those players stay in their room because the game is in Atlanta. It's hot Atlanta.
Starting point is 00:15:42 Well, one of the Clippers players last year went to that strip club Magic City, which apparently has super famous wings, and that's the whole reason he went. I just went there for the wings, guys. Exactly. These guys are going to get out of their rooms. And we were talking about it this morning at work because James Harden came back to Houston.
Starting point is 00:15:59 It was his return to Houston last night, and it was also conveniently the last game before the All-Star break. So we were thinking, do you think he stayed behind behind hit up any strip clubs while he was here because i mean he doesn't have anywhere to go or some ladies that he knew yeah that's right these guys care about yeah agreed also you know lebron james one of the greatest actors of our generation shout out to space jam yeah space jam space jam are you guys excited for the kraken the new hockey team in seattle they're gonna be starting up their draft this year and then they're gonna start playing next year and i wanted to ask you guys do you have a second hockey team
Starting point is 00:16:38 that you're a fan of so i know we have some ducks fans in here we have some kings fans in here but if they weren't your main hockey team what would be your second hockey team you think well i'm a sabers fan because i'm the i'm you know i have the buffalo roots so i've kind of watched both of them and it's funny because when those sabers were good back in like the early 2000s the king sucked and now the kings were good the sabers suck so they haven't really been good at the same time so i haven't had to like do the rooting interesting um but yeah i mean they're technically my second team i was thinking that randy has been excited about the kraken that the kraken would be his second team no or do you
Starting point is 00:17:12 already have one i have a second team i mean by default if you if you love a west coast team your second team has to be an east coast team that's usually what a lot of people's like um reasoning behind it yeah it's like oh it's on the east coast when the golden knights were getting started i was like oh cool the golden knights and then not long after they became a thorn in my ass because they could be in the duck yeah you can't do that especially in division two you can't do it yeah so my second team would probably be the new york islanders i like uh i like the islanders all right tyler what about you uh my second team is actually vegas i don't i don't know what it is oh my yeah i like i like
Starting point is 00:17:46 the story now when it comes down the story the story of like basically how they rebuilt the city after the shooting they brought it together and all that stuff i'm a sucker for this stuff you know this so get off my back number one number two your favorite team your second favorite team is gonna be a team that your team plays six times a year. Okay, number two. You guys might get mad at me because I don't even know what divisions. You're not like a self-touted, oh, I'm a sports guy. Kings, Kings, Kings.
Starting point is 00:18:13 You're not posting stuff where it's like it's a hockey jersey kind of thing. But I embrace the Golden Knights. I thought they were awesome. As a kid, I would wear a lot of Sharks jerseys because the Sharks were... Okay, no. They can go to hell. Well, the Sharks practice facility was two blocks from my house. So I embraced the Sharks.
Starting point is 00:18:33 I would wear a bunch of the Sharks skaters. So basically, those would be my two teams. But you guys hate Tyler because he embraces... Yeah, man. He's stupid. Everything he does is a huge contradiction to everything he does. It is moronic. Because Tyler's one of the – that would mean, by default,
Starting point is 00:18:46 if the Kings and the Golden Knights met in the Western Conference Finals and the Knights won, he'd be like, yeah, I got it. I got a roof. I got a roof for the Knights. Yeah, the Kings lost, but hey, the Golden Knights won. He would have a reversible jersey. That would piss me off at that point to where it would stop. Why then?
Starting point is 00:19:03 But why would it piss you off if your second team – Because obviously the Kings are my first. You're good to me until you that point to where it would stop. Why then? But why would you off if your second team... Because obviously the Kings are my first. You're good to me until you're dead to me. That's all it is. You're a hack. You're a casual. You're a casual.

Starting point is 00:19:18 My heartbeat's going up my watch. Speaking about sports podcasts, how exciting is this? I thought it was pretty exciting, even though I'm not in the sports world and sports podcasting. But when resorts, when casinos, they bought a podcasting network, a sports one, and they're building studios at the casino on the Strip. I think that's huge. I think that's major. It's awesome.
Starting point is 00:19:40 There's a huge movement going into Vegas, like just not even podcasts alone, but outside of like sports media, huge media people, moguls that are moving there, building their own studios. There's ESPN, the studios on the strip. Oh, that's dope. Yeah, the link.
Starting point is 00:19:53 Yeah, that overlooks the strip. We have a new studio of the future for iHeart over there. The future. So yeah, dude, Vegas, it's like everybody skipped over Vegas and came to LA a little while back studios in la finally and now they're like wait we we jumped the landing go back to vegas why do we go there
Starting point is 00:20:11 we can do this way cheaper it's like wait a second we can do this for we can do this cheaper we can gamble hot chicks we missed our exit why do we go to vega why do we go to la when we could have stopped at vegas and done this entertainment and media is finally wait la scary vegas good yeah let's go to Vegas, guys. Yeah, I thought that was really cool. Also, Area 15, if you don't know, it's like this really cool artistic space. They have Meow Wolf
Starting point is 00:20:33 and all kinds of cool stuff like that. They're also building podcast facilities there too. And I welcome all this because that's great for our industry. That gives more job opportunities to a lot of people and just do creative stuff. Now, will everything be totally saturated industry that gives more job opportunities to a lot of people and just do creative stuff now
Starting point is 00:20:45 will everything be totally saturated and everybody and their mom will have a podcast like everybody in this room yes yeah but the quality will rise to the top i believe absolutely you know the good podcast will get the the listeners that they get just got to trim the fat yeah yeah and there's gonna there's gonna be a burnout where there's so many people that will start podcasts just because they can because they're like hey i could buy a microphone at home and plug it into my laptop soon that's gonna go away because people well people burn out on their ambitions to do things i always tell randy i always told randy people want to do a podcast until they have a podcast yeah it's funny because all these famous people that started
Starting point is 00:21:22 podcasts those things aren't going to last. No. They're not because it is a lot of work. Also, for some of the really, really big podcasts, some of them are based around TV shows and stuff where it's like, okay, well, there's a finite run. Once the show ends, what do you do? Then you run out of content. Or if you're doing other types of podcasts like entertainment ones, a lot of them focus on interviews. But when you stop getting interviews or good interviews,
Starting point is 00:21:46 what do you got? They try to roll with themselves. And if their personalities don't catch on, it's done. The boom is continuing for the podcast stuff because there's a few audio stores nearby here. I remember I went to one looking for an XLR cable and they were like, oh, we're out of those. We're out of Rode microphones. We're out of Rode casters.
Starting point is 00:22:03 We're out of basically everything because everyone and their mom wants to start a podcast. Well, yeah, because a lot of people have been home. Yeah, the pandemic. Streaming, your video game streaming, and then podcasts. Everybody has a channel now. I think you were the one that brought it up, it was like an Adam Carolla quote or something
Starting point is 00:22:18 where it's like, unless you're famous or rich, no one cares about your podcast or something. Well, it's very hard to rise to the top. Yeah. Yeah. You guys want to get into some tech news? Yes. Yeah. Yes! All right.
Starting point is 00:22:30 That's good energy. You guys have been bringing this up. Now, Kings of Leon is going to be the first band to release a full album through NFT. Now, NFT, can you try to explain it? Because I think when people first became aware of NFT, it was through this whole own video clips through the NBA, which I think confused everybody. Now, NFT is like a much bigger, broader thing. We kind of talked about like it's virtual content almost that you can own access to. So you're the man.
Starting point is 00:23:03 It's so hard to explain this stuff. So basically, you're the man, it's so hard to explain this stuff. So basically you're the owner of it. And what I thought was, okay, why are people spending all this money on a piece of art online that they could see for free online just to have ownership of it? And here's my high concept is when virtual reality becomes a thing, let's say extremely a huge thing in the next 10 years. And there's virtual worlds online like Ready Player One, the Oasis, and you put your Oculus on and you're standing inside your fake mansion. When somebody bought a piece of artwork with NFT, they have this piece of artwork that they have in their virtual online mansion that nobody else in that virtual world could have.
Starting point is 00:23:45 I think that's why people are buying all these little digital things that they have ownership. Right now, you can just pull it up on your phone and say, hey, I own this. But I was thinking the high concept later on to have all these virtual items that people can't use online, that's why they're buying them. Is this what it felt like at the beginning of Bitcoin? Everyone's like, this is so dumb. And they don't understand it. Well, it's basically another version of Bitcoin. Is this what it felt like at the beginning of Bitcoin? Everyone's like, this is so dumb. And they don't understand it. Well, it's basically another version of Bitcoin.
Starting point is 00:24:08 Yeah. But with content. Speaking about cryptocurrency, did you see that Dogecoin is sponsoring a NASCAR this weekend in Las Vegas? Hell yeah. Doge to the moon, baby. Are you still into the Doge? Are you Doge-ing out? I'm in too deep with the Doge to get out of the Doge.
Starting point is 00:24:23 The only way out is in a box. The only way out is in a box. The only way out is in a box. It's good that the hype is gone because then you can collect some more and then wait for the next hype of doge and then you can cash out. Who has more doge? Is it you or is it Tyler? Because Tyler was getting into this right on your coattails. How much doge you got, Tyler?
Starting point is 00:24:40 I got $30. It's not even that much. How much? Like $150, I think. Oh, alright. So if he hits that spike, you'll be making some cash. Yeah, but I bought in it when it was like a little bit less than a cent.
Starting point is 00:24:52 So you got a lot of doge. Yeah. My brother, I think, had doge below a cent, and he made like $500 on it. When it had that one little spike, he was like, alright, take that. The problem is, I got caught up in the whole GameStop wave and I bought like
Starting point is 00:25:07 8 shares of AMC oh yeah I'm in it with you so I'm down I'm down a little but I'm not that negative once that negative
Starting point is 00:25:13 hits green I'm like let's get out ripcord we're gone I totally forgot how high I bought in because I thought
Starting point is 00:25:19 it was on the way up and so now you gotta be careful with that stuff I'm hoping the theaters open up and they can buy back in other tech news Square who basically owns Cash App And so now it's like, now I'm just hoping. You gotta be careful with that stuff. I'm hoping the theaters open up and they can buy back in.
Starting point is 00:25:27 Other tech news, Square, who basically owns Cash App, they bought a major stake in the music streaming service Tidal. So now Jay-Z, who's a major owner of Tidal, is now on the board for Square and Cash App. Okay. Now that makes sense.
Starting point is 00:25:43 $275 million to buy into Tidal. And isn't there rumors of Jay-Z being part of the Illuminati in some way? I'll just say, okay, isn't he one of the most successful musicians, rappers? He owns labels, and now he owns part of Square? Yeah. I just wonder how this is going to pan out. How does this benefit Square necessarily? Because Tidal, I mean, maybe I don't know anything enough about the streaming services,
Starting point is 00:26:09 but Tidal to me seems like the most unattractive out of Spotify, Apple Music. Okay, because here's how you do it. Here's how you do it. Hey, do you have a Square account? Cool. Now you can get the streaming service. Hey, do you have Square playing in your store or you have Square that you're using in your store? Cool.
Starting point is 00:26:23 We will provide you with the streaming service that you can play over the air. Okay, that would make sense. Having, like, Tidal in stores if you're using Square to do transactions. There you go, and they'll give them... Look, Bort's on the board already. Give them free streaming, give them custom stations that they can do, and then you have the little meters or you have Shazam pick it up, and they'll be like, guess what they're listening to?
Starting point is 00:26:43 They're listening to this app because they're all uncoded. Done. That was an idea by Bort. Please hit me up. Patent pending. Also, Paramount Plus dropped today. All in, all out. We already talked about it. I'm in. Did you sign up? My girlfriend signed up.
Starting point is 00:27:01 I signed up. I didn't sign up. I didn't sign up because I't sign up i didn't sign up because i stupidly forgot to cancel hulu so yeah maybe now sponge on the run is out spongebob i know you guys are all i'm just weirded out by the like what kind of animation are we calling that that's like a 3d animation it's well i here's the thing like i've had this conversation with numerous adults who are like or am i tripping i think it's 3d but i've had this conversation with numerous adults who are like- Isn't it 2D or am I tripping? I think it's 3D.
Starting point is 00:27:26 Okay. I've had numerous conversations- You look inflated. Yeah, I don't know what it is. But I've had conversations with adults who are like, yeah, Spongebob just isn't the same anymore. I'm like, dude, this show's for kids. It's supposed to cater.
Starting point is 00:27:36 Stuff that we find funny, I still find funny. iCarly on Netflix is one of the top stream things right now, but I'm sure back then people were like, I don't get the humor. Look at kids shows now. Completely different taste. I think you're relating something that's new and different as opposed to something that's nostalgic going back and you're like, it's not the same. Again, we'll take it to Pokemon world.
Starting point is 00:27:54 Pokemon animation now? Not the same Pokemon animation from the 90s, man. Fair enough. Fair enough. Alright. Paramount plus the TV app will be $9.99 a month. Hell yeah. Or with commercials, $9.99 a month. Hell yeah. Or with commercials, $5.99 a month. I will get the $5.99.
Starting point is 00:28:10 Hell yeah. I'm really happy that they're now making that an option now for a lot of things. Like the commercial version, I appreciate that. Yeah, I have Discovery Plus with commercials. Yeah, it's not a big deal. I don't care. You barely notice it. It's like one commercial an episode. Yeah, if they start ramping it up to like four minutes of commercials, then I'm going to upgrade.
Starting point is 00:28:27 Look, anything's better than Hulu rotating the same three commercial ads every 10 minutes. If I see that Grubhub dancing food commercial one more time, I'm going to lose my mind. You realize the people in that little animated people in that are a little chunky? Because they're enjoying the food. That's why. gonna get wise marketing if you're a marketing executive like yo we gotta have people be fat now like fats in and you can't shame it man you can't shame it telling me i'm popular what was this what was it back in the day that the fatter you were the more wealthy you were because you know yeah no okay well back in the days like the renaissance no it's funny because um i had that happen to me with an old lady i would see
Starting point is 00:29:05 this old lady in san francisco on the street all the time and i don't know i didn't see her for quite a while and then i ran into her and she goes oh you've gotten bigger you must be doing well back in the day that was a compliment oh yeah man you got you got a belly you obviously you have money to eat doing well tyler you were just born in the wrong era. Bro, I just retain food like I retain the heat. It's not good. All right. So Japanese billionaire wants to bring eight people with him to space for six days. You can apply right now at dearmoon.earth.
Starting point is 00:29:39 That's dearmoon.earth. Are you all in, all out to go to space? I don't want to say I'm all in, but I'm all out. I'm too hesitant for the first trip. I think Randy would be having panic attacks the entire time, freaking out about everything. So, yeah, that would not work. I'd be down. Whatever.
Starting point is 00:29:57 Let's go. Apply right now. Let's go. Let's terraform. DearMoon.Earth. You know what? Actually, even better. If I somehow get that, I will give my spot to woody
Starting point is 00:30:05 because i know he wants to go all right he can go and then tell me how it is and then i'll go eric i would oh i'd be down hell yeah okay tyler i have no desire for space what's wrong with you it sounds sad he sounded i would love to do it but i don't want to be the first yeah yeah you do it like a couple hundred times and then you guys go then tell me then i'll jump on was it fun how was re-entry was that okay when the ship crashes into the moon and be like nice yeah that's fine why you just live there they just terraform it from there right you'll figure it out okay on tiktok i've been noticing a lot of these estate sales that people have been posting so the one that i just saw recently this tiktoker
Starting point is 00:30:45 she went to this estate sale for this um lady that was in that did porn in like the 80s so she was like she was a porn baller apparently she lived in beverly hills and they went through her estate and all these different items it was actually pretty cool some like really cool items i think i might want to go to a state sale one day i'll be down like i think greg gory said that he came up on a gucci watch for like 30 bucks yeah because these are usually places that like somebody died unexpectedly and they had no like nexen can or there was no kind of official document so it's kind of like you come to their spot and it's just or kind of how they left it and you just grab you know that a lot of furniture i think gets sold at estate sales but
Starting point is 00:31:28 yeah it's literally like you just kind of walk into someone's house and it's like oh hey well it did have me thinking god forbid when you know my parents pass away my my mother's house probably thousand items or more you know she has a basement her garage is just endless stuff. I don't want this stuff. I think I would have to do an estate sale to get rid of all of it. Possibly. I've been to somewhere. It was someone like a son or daughter selling a bunch of stuff. Estate sales can be fun.
Starting point is 00:31:56 I have a buddy that goes a lot to pick up items for resale. Dude, you will not imagine the things that you can find. First editions of books from the 1950s, old furniture, the Gucci stuff you're talking about. You can find anything and they'll post everything. I don't know if this service is still around or anything like that, but I had an old boss
Starting point is 00:32:12 before I did radio. I did television and the manager of the TV station left television to start a business in the early 2000s on eBay where he would go to somebody's house that passed away and eBayed all their stuff for the family. Damn. I'm sure by now there has to be some services out there, right? Oh, definitely. Oh, yeah. Has to be. Yeah, definitely. Someone will come in and they just monetize the amount and flip it. It's like the liquidization of a storefront or something where they come and they sell the shelves. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah because i was thinking like how how would i get rid of all this stuff that's probably what they do with the state so you probably hire somebody and they show up and
Starting point is 00:32:51 manage it and they say okay cool this is what's worthy this is what's not you sell all this and and pounds man i was talking i was talking my mom about moving because you know i just moved to my new apartment and you know she's lived on the house we live in her grandpa built the second house like a kind of duplex unit kind of thing so we have decades and decades worth of family just there stuff so we have like sheds and a garage and i'm like mom it took me like two days to pack up a room and a half stuff for my apartment she's like i could just imagine i could only imagine the effort that i would have to go into not only moving her house which you know she's a grandma same thing like you mentioned menace like they have like porcelain angels and cups and she has hutches
Starting point is 00:33:29 of stuff of collectibles mickey mouse crap everywhere and then we have a garage of older crap and a shed of other crap and i'm like man mom i'm gonna be pissed if you dip out on us and we have to do this by ourselves yeah i feel. And then you have to maybe sell some stuff online. And you're saying Macari is hot right now, right? Yeah, Macari is really hot, especially since eBay decided to change their policies. They split from PayPal completely. So now everything is going through eBay. So now they're requiring people to give their social security numbers and bank information because there is nopal and because they don't want uh they're gonna allegedly report your taxes of your sales to the irs so everyone's flocking to mercari like crazy man it's the wild west right now over there yeah it's pretty dope too like if you're really looking for
Starting point is 00:34:17 something there's no bidding it's just straight buying stuff okay good and you could do like i don't like the bidding stuff you could do like discount codes or you can send discount codes to people that are watching your stuff or liking your stuff and yeah i make we've made a couple hundred bucks already on it that's awesome yeah are you gonna finally set up a store that we can get to for shasta stuff that she's making yeah well we have i've been hounding you and eric you know we were trying to fight urls and it's not going well okay let's put it that way. We're having issues. You promised me by the next time we, okay, so FYI, let's recap.
Starting point is 00:34:48 By the next time we podcast, you'll have these URLs set up. But Shasta, what did she do? So Shasta has an Etsy. Which is your wife, by the way, for new listeners. Right. Shasta or Shastacola, we call her. She has an Etsy store where she sells mystical tarot accessories. So if you like tarot cards, she sells tarot bags, tarot mats.
Starting point is 00:35:06 She's making purses. She's also making cuddle cups and cuddle rolls for smaller animals, such as like ferrets, guinea pigs, hamsters, whatever. Nice. All those. It's a very big variety of things. And she's selling those on her Etsy store.
Starting point is 00:35:17 Nice. Currently, if you want to get to it, you can go to at the broadcast or ask Iwerb Saint on Instagram. Click on the link in the bio. There's a link tree. You will find it right there at the top. All right. on instagram click on the link in the bio there's a link tree you will find it right there at the top all right there that's a pain in the ass by the next podcast you'll have a url for me it's two steps at least you always want the one step dude i know all right
Starting point is 00:35:35 eric i'm gonna bitch at you now no no you're not because i have a url oh is it set up sorry i know i shouldn't let it i know you're sitting there laying all that out. I'm like, damn, I'm going to feel like a real asshole. Okay. So I've been praising these. It's okay. I've been praising these blankets for like a year. Blanketsbytracy.com. Oh, that's easy.
Starting point is 00:35:56 And that was the problem with Brett. So I had blanketsbytracy.com. Yeah. And there's a link to her Poshmark, I guess, is one that she uses. And her eBay, where she sells her blankets and random ass... Those knickknacks, those Mickey Mouse stuff, she collects stuff like that, resells them. I've gotten three blankets from your mom
Starting point is 00:36:12 and the last time when I was hungover, I just laid all those blankets on top of me. Growing up, man, I was never cold in our house because there was always felt and fabric and fleece. But yeah, blanketsbytracy.com She has some of the ones she's already made and that would be like a contact link that you can like go request and stuff like that dude legit blankets i'm telling you guys go check them out i'm so annoyed right
Starting point is 00:36:33 now i had a leak i put it in the car and all of a sudden it was like i was like oh yeah i'll go with this you were up and then it changed it in the cart it's like oh sorry that's not available you have to go with this i'm like this is trash, this is trash. He's laying all that out. I'm like, dude, I feel like such an ass. I was like, oh, by the way, I got one. By the next podcast, we'll have it together. Don't worry, Bort. What about stuffbyshasta.com? Is it available?
Starting point is 00:36:56 Yeah, it doesn't say it's taken. That doesn't mean it's not available. Been there. Trust me. Okay. Oh, I have another question. Tyler. i am here oh question oh hey tyler um what are you um when you started working for the woody show i thought you were mexican but then a lot of our co-workers try to imply that you were not mexican so it got me confused on what is your ethnicity?
Starting point is 00:37:26 I have no idea. I'm pretty sure it's Spanish, but I've never actually done 23 and me or taken the deep dive to look into my family's history. I've never done it, but I know mostly- What did your mom and dad say? They know that we have some European in our family line because there's just no reason for me to be this white
Starting point is 00:37:43 and just get away with it. Like, let's be real here. Okay. New Mexico. Told you. New Mexico. Okay, wait. Tyler, your mom and dad, are they both born in the States? Both my parents were born in the States. Both their sets of parents were both in the States. However,
Starting point is 00:37:58 their, so I think this would be my great grandparents or great great grandparents, one of the two. They both came from Mexico. So there is that. All right. Well, then you're Mexican. That's a long way to that answer. Yeah, it's a long way.
Starting point is 00:38:10 Wow, that was a roundabout way to get it there, man. That's all I got. All right. Thank you for listening to this episode of Tyler's Culinary Roots. Culinary Roots? Culinary Roots. Culinary. What does culinary have to do with anything? I like Mexican food, man.
Starting point is 00:38:31 That's all it is. Anyways, the What's New podcast. We've updated the logo. A friend of mine is making logos now. I posted it on my social media if you want to get your own logo. I actually commissioned them to maybe make a Tailgater podcast logo, and I also commissioned them to make a Bortcast logo, so maybe you'll see new logos on there.
Starting point is 00:38:52 I already got crap for the new logo. Really? Who gave you crap? Believe it or not, on What's New Pod on our Instagram, at What's New Pod. They're like, oh, way to make it all about you, Menace. The name of the title is What's New with Menaceace of course it's going to be him on the cover what's new pod with menace okay yeah and i and i responded i said hey everybody here has their own podcast eric randy and tyler have
Starting point is 00:39:20 tailgater sports board has thecast and we all support each other. I hope it's okay that it's my face on the icon. You can be real with me. It makes you feel bad. Let me know. We can make it a thing if you really want us to.
Starting point is 00:39:38 Do you want to? No. Tyler might have a problem with his culinary roots being from Mexico, obviously. I don't care. If Tailgater Sports was titled Tailgater Sports with Eric and it was Eric's face, I really wouldn't care. I'd be like, that's fine. Oh, that's a good idea.
Starting point is 00:39:53 You're such a liar. I swear. I'd have a problem if it was Randy, though. I'd fight for that. All right. So if you want to see the new logo, well, actually, it should have popped up since you downloaded this podcast but if you would like to comment on it you can go to our instagram at what's new pod on instagram i gotta take off because i have a meeting a really fun meeting to go to so i have to go but thank you once again for listening to this podcast please go rate and review it wherever you download it

That is my bad. I've just been really busy with work and some other stuff that has come up. I'm sitting at my house waiting for the notification.
Starting point is 00:44:08 I'm sorry. That's my bad. I will be on this weekend. Bored Off Tyler on Twitch. I will be playing a sports game. I have not decided which one I will play, but I will play one this week. Follow me at Bored Off Tyler on Twitch. All right.
Starting point is 00:44:23 Randy, do you have anything to say? Happy to finally be done with 18 units of school. Sick. You have seemed more chipper lately. Oh, dude. So much. So stress-free. So nice.
Starting point is 00:44:34 You just gave me a little attitude on air today. Oh, really? Here's the thing. If anyone here is a younger sibling, I never had an older sibling. I was never really close to my cousins, so I've never really had that that older like i've had people come in my life where they're like i'll treat you like a little brother i'm like nah because you're an effing loser okay but it's like but it's like you know offer that but it's like well it's okay but it's like you guys i'm with you guys all the time and so this is the first time honestly that i've had the dynamic
Starting point is 00:44:59 of which i have people older than me who basically kind of bully me without bullying me does that make does that make sense? We're trying to guide you. I mean, you had an older brother. I mean, you grew up with the homies and the screets. So you had people who were above you who you would address to and whatever. That would mentor you. That would give you crap all the time.
Starting point is 00:45:16 So it's not that I'm giving you attitude. It's like, all right, well, I'm the honest, guys. I get a little butthurt sometimes. You know that. Oh, really? For instance, I'm glad. Let's park it right here. I'm glad we're doing this.
Starting point is 00:45:28 Oh, man. I'm glad we're doing this. For instance, this guy here loves to do something. Who's this guy? Eric. He's pointing at me if everybody can't see that. Eric, he loves to do something that nobody seems to pick up except me, which is he will purposely say something that makes Brett come after me,
Starting point is 00:45:44 and then he'll be laughing in the corner, snickering. Yeah, that's the dynamic of doing a show. Such an ass. So then I go off on this thing, and Brett's like, I don't know, be something stupid. Brett'll be like, you know, Randy, maybe Eric's right about this. You know, maybe you do need to get some help on this. I'm like, he's obviously
Starting point is 00:46:00 trying to get you riled up. Because it's always some dumb idea, Randy doing something, and I'm like, you know, maybe you need a little guidance. And what does he do? Never listens. Never listens. And then he bitches about it two weeks later. And then we give him more of a hard time. Trial and error. And then he gets all pissy
Starting point is 00:46:16 with us. Yep. And then he starts lashing back, and then he does the complete opposite, just to spite us. And he's like, yeah, I was listening to some other people and their advice. You're like, yeah, screw it. I'm out. Actually, I don't listen to anyone's advice. If I'm going to listen to someone's advice, it'll be you guys' advice. Other than that, if it's not Woody, I swear I don't listen to anyone else.
Starting point is 00:46:33 Well, I always have the saying, I only listen to the people that are in positions that I would want to be in. Yeah, I know. I remember there was a certain occasion in which you told me this. And I always think to be in. Yeah, I know. I remember there was a certain occasion in which you told me this, and I always think about that quote, you know? Because you're my friends and you guys are well off, and you're not dummies, you know? All right. Maybe not Tyler, but anyways, yeah.
Starting point is 00:46:54 Hey, I'm a little in shock. I don't believe him that he listens to us, but okay. But also, you just got to understand, we just want the best for you. I know, but guys, again, I grew up, I didn't have an older sibling. I grew up with my mom, who was just always on my ass for everything. So if I'm going to be honest, sometimes I'm a little Charmin Soft, all right? I'm a little butthurt sometimes. It takes me a second to get over it and not be in little polyprissy pants,
Starting point is 00:47:18 but I'll be real with you. I'm working on the tough skin stuff. Again, I take crap from you guys listening to you guys, not Tyler. Yeah, just don't. Give us you guys. Not Tyler. Yeah. Just don't. Give us the toad, man. Chill. I honestly don't even realize I'm giving the toad.
Starting point is 00:47:30 I think I'm just going back and forth. Go back and listen. Anyways, you usually, like, what is it? Will you ask me, like, anything else? Tyler's a hockey hack, fake fan, casual. Tailgater sports. Tailgater sports. Anything else,
