I don't really want to go into Okay, no problem. Yeah. Well, I love the Pee Wee documentary, by the way. I thought it was really good. Yeah, he recorded it right before he died, didn't he, or something? He did. Literally, he recorded a bunch of stuff. I don't want to give away any spoilers or anything. And then he stopped cooperating. And then at the last minute, he cooperated and then he died. Oh.He recorded a bunch of stuff, and man, this was like within the last month of his life or something. He's like, eh, maybe I don't want to do this, and then he reconsidered, and then he passed away. Wow. That's timing, huh? Yeah. Well, he seemed to have good timing, that Pee-Wee. Yeah, he was funny. anyway i am not here to talk about peewee herman excuse me okay or any other peewee all right we'll zip up and let's get going no i mean I should have, uh, I should have mentioned that I'd already done my story and then you had, you know, an animal story. And so I'm like, Oh, I got an animal story for you. Oh, that's right. Yeah. You were holding back on me now. Well, I'd already, I'd already, you know, slung my hook. So I figured I might as well. Yeah. You know, you have last week's animal story. And then this week I have an animal story. All right. Well, let's hear it. So I was sent out to pick up.some items from, uh, Sam's club mulch. No, no mulch yet. No mulch yet. That'll be soon but yeah you love mulch. And, uh, and so i was coming back, uh, from there and i pull into the driveway and, um, you know i'm gonna unload this hall. Cause every time you go to Sam's, you have to bring home, you know, a bunch of stuff. It's just like, they force you to do it at gunpoint. Literally they have somebody walking around with a gun. SS officers walking around. Exactly. $50 minimum. And I'm like, Holy shit. Holy crap. Yeah, no. So anyway, every time I go in there, I swear to God, it's like 50 bucks. Boom. at least minimum. Right. Yeah. Trunk full of stuff. And I get out of the car and I go around, you know, pop the back. I got a hatchback that I put on and I'm, I'm grabbing something out of the back of the car to take in. And I think it was some delicious Dr. Pepper zero. And I look and I'm like, what the,is there a giant crack in my driveway? It's like, it's this huge, like five foot crack in my driveway. I'm like, that wasn't there when I left. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I'm racking my brain here thinking that there must've been an earthquake or something to put this large crack in the concrete. I believe you have a five foot long crack. Yeah, I do. I appreciate that. Thank you. And lo and behold, it's a snake. Oh, wow. This snake was at least five feet long. Five feet long. Stretched across my driveway. Wow. Yeah. And I'm like, holy hell. Have you ever seen one that big? Yes. Actually, I've seen one bigger, but not on my driveway. Yeah. I was at your house and we were doing this thing called two guys are going to talk about, nevermind. So, uh, my foot snake. And I was like, Oh my gosh. So now I have to walk past it to take all this crap in. Right. Yeah. Yeah. And so I'm like, Oh my gosh, you know, this,I mean, I don't know if this snake, I mean, obviously it's probably not poisonous because it's not, we don't have a lot of poisonous snakes around here. Right. Typically, you know, poisonous snakes generally aren't that big. Yeah. Yeah. So anyway, I'm like, holy moly. So I go, I take my first, I open the garage door. Hey, don't go outside if you don't want to see a giant snake. Right. and then everyone runs out. Yeah, everybody runs yeah Yeah, everyone runs versus snake yeah and then everybody's yelling at me, don't leave the garage door open it's gonna get in the garage and i'm like no it's not it's not gonna get in the garage i mean this thing's lazy. It's just lazing out there. Somehow between when i left, which i just did the one errand, and then when i came back, he crawled out onto this, you know, I have a bigdriveway. So you do. Yeah. This wasn't like, you know, he just popped on there like in two seconds this took a little time. And so i'm trucking stuff in kind of keeping an eye on him. Right. You know? Yeah. Yeah. Good idea. Yelling at me not to let him into the garage and no daddies yeah exactly and they're like, Holy moly, that's a big effing snake. He got there and they're taking pictures, you know? And they're like, Kill it. I'm like, I'm not a snake killer. That's not my style. Don't kill it. No, they eat mice and ground squirrels. Don't kill it. I'm like, just keep an eye on it so it doesn't go in the garage. But, you know, I'll, you know, I'll try to scare it off, but I got to get all this crap in from Sam. I got to get my, my, you know, a hundred dollars Sam's mortar in. That was first to purchase. I pulled onto the parking lot, you know, it's like, they don't charge for parking, but man, oh man, do they charge for, uh, everything else. So I get everything in and he's still there. He's making his way up to the garden. We have a front garden. Um,don't know what you call it. A front garden. I don't know what you it's flowers and things right so yeah right right yeah and so then my wife's like, no, don't let him go in the garden. I'm like, why? I'm like, I was going to go out there later today and weed. And I'm like, well, I don't know what to tell you. He seems pretty, he's heading right to the garden. I mean, it's right there. And I think that's where he's headed. And so between my shuffling in and out, he did. He headed right into the garden. And she's like, well, that fucks my day. My days. Yeah. I can't weed in the garden now. There's no way she regularly weed the garden this time of year. Yeah. She does do that. Right. Okay. You have poisonous snakes and, uh, and St. Louis, man. Uh, there's a few copperhead.Rattlesnakes, I think, are a little bit poisonous. I'm sorry. I'm just kind of catching up, man. I hear snakes as I come in the show, and I'm like, what the hell is Bob talking about, snakes? Yeah, snakes. But Miles asked me if that was the biggest one I'd seen. No. And I don't know if I told this story or not. Maybe you tell me, Miles, if you've heard it before. So one time I was mowing the grass, and I have woods and whatnot. Part of the yard is woods. And I'm up by the woods mowing, and literally a snake is staring at me. I'm sitting on a lawnmower, and in the edge of the woods is a snake that is eye-to-eye with me and is all the way down onto the ground, like an S. Yeah. That thing was like a seven-foot snake because I was at least three and a half, four feet off the ground.It's looking at me and its body was going all the way down on the ground. Holy shit. Wow. And I, I swerved. I was like, Holy moly. And I was like, so that part of the yard didn't get mowed that day. That reminds me of a story, man. I seen this thing on a tick tock earlier today where a dude is trying to Michael. Huh? That was pornography. Oh no, there's no pornography. Oh, okay. Bob's trying to derail the story. Go ahead. No, no, no, no. No, it reminds me of a story, man. You're talking about a snake. I'm talking about a dude, man. He was trying to use the crosswalk. It was on this TikTok video. And across the crosswalk was an alligator. It was somewhere near Tampa. Yeah, yeah. And the alligator is not today, buddy. You're not using this crosswalk.Oh, my gosh. I couldn't imagine having alligators just pop into your yard. Oh, gosh. Not be fun. Not be fun. Well, statistically, they say they statistically, right? I think they exist in the New York subway system. Oh, they don't have alligators in the subway system. Do they? That's what they said, man. I don't know. I don't know. Miles, have you ever heard this? I never said. alligator in the subway system. I lived in New York City before. They had movies about that. I think that was all made up. The snake threw everybody off. Everybody was off their game the day. Nobody wanted to go out in front anymore. That was the end of that for the day. You didn't shoo him away? No, he went into the flowers and he hid underneath something andWas he fast? No, it took him a while because he's freaking five foot long. Later that day, I was outside doing, I cut up all the stumps and everything and I was moving stuff around and he come shooting out from the other side of the driveway at me. Then he went back in the garden. He was on the other side of the driveway away from the garden, and he came shooting out, and he went into the garden. Hey, Bob, he wants to be your friend, buddy. Oh, well, see, we have this ivy, and I swear to God, snakes live in the ivy. That and hornets,...

Hey, everybody, and welcome to Lament Tonight. From an alley near you, this is Bob Lament and my special guest, Serej, tonight. I'm going to throw it over to Gary Lime. Yes, that's right, Serej, right there. I'm going to throw it over to Gary Lime for the intro. Gary and the Flea Towns, please take it away. All right. Thank you, Gary. That was great. It's great to be here tonight. This is the first alley cast, as we'll call it here. I'm in the nondescript brick wall in an alley somewhere in St. Louis. Hopefully we'll not have any of the police show up on us and break up the party. But, you know, to keep things moving, I'm going to turn it over to Suresh.who's going to entertain us here. Go right ahead, Suresh. Oh, thank you so much, Bob, for having me as your first guest on AliCast. Yes, I love that name. And as my friend Dobby from Harry Potter would say… They must lament. Thank you so much for that wonderful introduction. Thank you.Or… Or as my friend Shaggy from Scooby-Doo would say, Like, like, Bob. That was a good introduction, Bob. Zoinks! Or as my friend SpongeBob would say, Bob. Oh, Bob, that was a fantastic introduction. Ah! There you go. You got some taste of some of my voice impressions. I did. Yeah, thank you. And I take your introduction any day over. Oh, he looks like he works at a 7-Eleven. No, I don't. Or, hey, Suresh moved from India to the U.S., but after today, he's going to be deported. No.No, I'm not. I'm here legally. I'm a legal resident. Don't worry. The current president of the U.S. will definitely not say, Siraj, I love Hindus, but we are deporting you back to India. India is an excellent country, but we have to deport you very soon. Okay? Okay. He's definitely not going to say that with all the graveliness in his voice. Yeah. And the hairspray on his head, apparently, yeah. Yes, yes, yes. But, guys, it's great news. I moved from India to the U.S., and it's great because I get to enjoy American football, or as you guys call it, the Super Bowl. Yes. I can enjoy the Super Bowl in the U.S., but in India, all I could enjoy was a begging bowl. Is that official? Yes. If you have $5, please tip me. You can send it to at the rate AliCast on Cash App or Venmo or PayPal.Whatever you like. But guys, I just have to say that my friends said that, Suraj, life in the U.S. will be easier for you. You get to be a part of AliCast while we can't. No, they didn't say that. But the point is, they said life will be easier for you. No, it's not. It's not, Bob or anyone watching, because everybody here mispronounces my name. Suraj. Yeah, it's terrible. Suraj. Surage. As if I have an anger problem. Yeah. Like if you call me Surage, I will become Surage. Smash. Surage smash. Heck, the other day somebody pronounced my name as Surgery. Can you believe that? Surgery. I told him, no, it's syringe, not surgery. Don't complicate it. And then he was like, oh, sorry. I thought it was surgery, but okay, I'll call you syringe. Now you know why I don't have much hair on my head. I ripped it all off. But surgery and syringe, I told my family about it.And you know what they said? Son, that's the closest you'll get to becoming a doctor. You should have studied harder. I know, right? Your dad. Yeah, it's tough, I mean. But hey, for all the mispronunciations of my name, I can say it feels great to hear the correct pronunciation English words in the United States. Yes. It feels great to hear people say potato and not potato. It feels great to hear people say determine and not determine, which is absolutely wrong. If you say determine, you should go die in a landmine. That's all I have to say. No, I'm just kidding. And finally, the most important part, Bob and everyone here, it feels great to hear people say dating and not arranged marriage. Oh, my goodness. Yes, yes, yes. Yeah. But one thing I have to say, a couple of more things I want to say is over here in America, we refer to our uncle asand aunts, kids as our cousins. Yes, you all know that, cousins. But in India, people tend to say cousin brother or cousin sister. Yes, they want to put a gender distinction to it. But I think that sounds pretty stupid because by this logic, am I supposed to call my uncle as cousin? Uncle Daddy? Hey, Uncle Daddy. What's up? Yeah. Americans would be confused by my family tree if they heard that. And one thing I have to say, not just the pronunciation of my name, all American people, the mountain in Asia, in India, it's pronounced Himalaya. Yeah. Not Himalaya. Not that ugly Himalaya. It's Himalaya. There's a flow. There's a beauty to saying Himalaya. Inner peace. Om Shanti. When I hear Himalaya, that sounds like a drunken way of saying he wants to get laid. Yuck. No. Honestly, no.Himalaya sounds like a terrible OnlyFans account. Yes. And on that, that's been my set for tonight. Thank you, Bob, for having me. Let's get on with the riff-raff. All right. Hey, thank you, Suresh. And I wanted to talk toafter the show about that arranged marriage. Who does the arranging? I was wondering. Who does the arranging? Yes, typically… You want an answer? Yeah, who does the arranging, honestly? Oh, in India, the arranged marriages are done by the parents, typically. Oh, okay. I didn't know. You paid an arranger? They had the loan arranger over there who took care of things? No, no, no. It's parents or sometimes even grandparents or that distant, nosy aunt or uncle who's like, oh, Suraj is unmarried still? He is…over the age of 30. What is this? And he's having a receding hairline. Okay. Let me find a girl for him. All you need is a little spray paint there, Suresh. You'll be all good. You can take care of that. No problem. I don't know how you match your color, but if you go to the Krylon section of the hardware store, I'm sure they've got something that's close. You said Krylon? Yeah. Yeah. Is that where people go and cry after doing a terrible spray job? They spray their heads. Exactly. Exactly. Well, Srej, thanks. We've got to go to a quick commercial, and we'll be right back. This is not a real commercial, Ian, just so you know. Well, it is a real commercial, but it's not exactly a commercial. Here we go. Yeah.Comedy combat is here. Pablo Lewin's roast battle. Uncensored. Unapologetic. Hilarious. Watch comedians obliterate each other with killer jokes. Stream it now on plausible.com. Search Pablo Lewin's roast battle. You can't handle the truth, but you'll love the laughs. There you go. Pablo Lewin's roast battle every week. Reg has won that a couple of times. There you go. Go Pablo. i have to mess with my optics there because they were backwards for some reason. So we'll, we'll deal with that. I wasn't expected. Wasn't expected at all. But, uh, just a second. I think gary's got another, another song for us. Gary, is that right over there one two three four All right. That's enough, Gary. We're going to get hit with some kind of copyright thing if we keep going any further. All right. Now we're at the point in our show where actually we're going to invite our guest, Suresh, and his arranged marriage, along with his can of what I would call kind of a dark chestnut Krylon, and play a game called Ask Not. And what we're going to try to do is get some advice from people, but we don't want you to give theBest advice. We want you to give the worst advice. The worst advice. Yeah. So I'll ask a question and we'll get the worst advice from you. So we'll start with you, Suresh, right? So let's just keep on the subject of arranged marriages, right? Yeah. So if you get stuck in an arranged marriage, how would you get out of it? Oh, the best way to get out or sorry, the worst way to get out of an arranged marriage is you've got to rub her feet. Yes, rubbing it. Keep rubbing it. Yes. Even when she wants to take a bathroom break, follow and hold on to that feet. Rub it, rub it, rub it, massage it, massage it, massage it till her feet feel numb.And then she's like, oh, no, I'm tired of this marriage. You're numbing me. You're numbing my senses. Get away from me, Suraj. I'm not really sure what the foot rubbing has got to do there. I'm trying to figure that out, honestly. Is this something that people in India not like to get their feet rubbed or what's going on with that? Oh, people in India, they really don't want their feet rubbed. Really? No. Instead, if you're trying to please someone, you should just touch their feet and put your hand on your forehead. Yes. That's considered seeking their blessings. I kid you not. No foot rubbing at all. No, no foot rubbing. That's bizarre because I would. I mean, literally, within the last 30 minutes, I was rubbing my wife's feet. And how did that go? Well, I'm here now. Yeah, she cast you away in the alley. Maybe there's something to these Indian traditions that I'm not hip to, apparently. But I thought maybe it would be something good, right? Yeah.But I gave you the worst advice. Do you want the best advice? Okay. No, I don't. Let's just ask not....

Well, yeah, I'm in Canadian. I'm in Celsius, but it's 14 Celsius, whatever that is in Fahrenheit. I think you just double it. Double it? There you go. Okay, that's good. I think you double it. For Fahrenheit, you double it net 12. See, not only are you fun to talk to on the screen, but you're super smart with math. I just made that up. Okay, that's good. I like it. I'll go with it. Okay. Hey, everybody, and welcome to this conversation with Dave from True Media Solutions in Canada. Dave's got a bunch of different shows. You want to tell everybody what your shows are, Dave? Oh, how long is the podcast, Bob? We've got about five minutes. We're good. Okay, five minutes. We're good. Yeah, a bunch of shows. I have a podcast for dads called Dad Space. I have a How to Podcast series. Teachers Podcasting. Bob has been a great guest on there. Unauthor Podcasts.So many great things. Wow. And I just love podcasting. I think I do six to ten episodes a week, Bob. Really? Yeah. And it's all here at truemediasolutions.ca. Not to be confused with any other C that's in the internet world. Yeah, CA is because I'm in Canada. Right, yeah. Well, hey, I mean, you can get the other ones, can't you, up there? I mean, they'd like to do that. Yeah, sometimes it's expensive, but yeah. Yeah, but I was going to say, but you like to have the Canadian branding these days is much more valuable. There you go. I would say, I don't know, maybe people have their opinion on it, but I'm not sure. But you do a bunch of the now, I mean, do you do other stuff as well? Because I'm assuming that you don't just do shows all day, right? You do other things too. I'm a musician. I've been doing music for 45 years. I am old.But, yeah, then I also have a job. I have a night job. I work overnights. So I listen to podcasts where I work. I get away with it, and I love listening to shows. You get away with it. Yeah. This is a secret. Yeah, don't tell anybody. This is not being recorded, right, Bob? Yeah. No, not at all. No, not at all, no. Yeah, that's not the purpose of this poll process. So, yeah, no, that's great. So, I mean, it's fantastic. So then how did you – when did you jump on the bandwagon, I guess, is what I'm curious about. Because you're really invested at this point. And so at some point, there was a time where you're like, you know what? This might be fun. I was doing editing for podcasters here and there prior to the global event, which we will leave at that. And I wasn't podcasting at that point, but I was editing for people. I have all the equipment because I'm a musician.to do editing and recording and i'd have rehearsals here in my house, send back recordings of the rehearsal to the band so they could hear what we were doing together. So I was already doing it. I had all the gear. I'm like, well, why don't i just do this? I love podcasts as a listener. So I'm going to start. So just before the global event, I started creating my shows and one show became nine. So now i have a lot. That's hilarious. So that's fun, though. I find, to be honest with you, I find over the years that a lot of musicians do this. I mean, this is like almost a stereotype. The fact that I'm not a musician, I am the outlier on all this kind of stuff. Because even in the early, early days, a lot of people who were involved with this were all, you know,involved in music in some way, shape or form. I think that had to do with, like you said, with having all the equipment and, and kind of having a certain level of knowledge that makes it a lot easier. Right. Yeah. Yeah. So, but I do find that incredibly interesting that, I mean, like probably, you know, seven or eight times out of 10, if I ask somebody, they'll, Oh yeah, I'm also a musician. Right. And I do this. And I'm just like, go for it. I mean, that's wild, don't you think? I mean, I actually came to it from being very interested in radio, which is gone now, I mean, pretty much. I mean, there's radio, but it's not the same as what it was, right? So that's where my angle that I came in on is like, oh, this is like radio that I can do.Okay, well then I'll do that. Yeah, if you have a creative bent or you're just a creative person writing art, music, this is just a natural progression, I think. As I watch you, Bob, the blue cat, I see creativity just oozing from you and how you do your shows. Those are freckles. Those are freckles? Okay. I love how creative you are and how you do your show. I just think that if you're a creative person, podcasting might be something you might be interested in. That's fun. So now let me ask you this. So when you were a kid, right? Cause especially with people involved in music, I think are more prone to this. Did you ever just record yourself on a cassette or something? And I mean, no one ever heard it, but you went through and did a show on your old cassette recorder. Yeah. When I was dating my wife, which is quite a while ago,Um, she went on a trip, a road trip and I wasn't able to go. So I made her like the mixtape, you know, the mixtape. Oh yeah. The mixtape. But I also added in like, added in like, like talk shows and commercials. And I'm like between the songs, I made my own radio show back with like cassettes back in the day. So yeah. Yeah. I've been doing this for quite a while. Yep. One of my, uh, when I was a kid, uh, I was a kid, but probably like, you know, uh, pre-teen kind of time period. The best gift i ever got was a dual cassette system so i had it lp you know played records and then it had dual cassette radio and all that kind of stuff. Um, it was, that was probably one of the best gifts that i ever got. Um, because, well, first of all, I stole music. Unfortunately, that's probably not the best thing to say buti did. All my friends and i would, you know, whoever had what album, we would, we would make cassette copies. But, um, but then the other thing was, is then you could do, you could do minor production, right? Because you had a way to play something and then it record you know, and you could plug a microphone in and you could do a voice over over the top of the music, you know, and play dj and what have you. That was just so much fun. I remember, you still remember vividly, um, you know, hours of, of kind of goofing around and putting together, well, I guess it would be hours, probably about 45 what's how much is the side of a regular cassette? 45 minutes, 60 minutes yeah yeah so something like that. And, uh, it was just a great fun. So your journey is probably not that far off. It sounds like. No. And I think,Those mixtapes were like our love letters to our girlfriends at the time. And podcasting can be a love letter today without having to flip it over after 30 years, right? Right. That's funny, kind of a quick story. So there's a new show on Max or HBO Max or whatever the heck they're calling themselves these days called Duster. And it's set in the 70s. And he has a Duster vibe. a Plymouth Duster. And he pops in an eight-track tape. It's all fast editing and so forth. And the song is playing. I go, that was great. I mean, it really kind of gives you the taste of the time. I go, except for the fact that you didn't hear the click in the middle of the song whenever it changed tracks. Right. Yeah. Always the best song on an eight-track seemed to have to split a track.I don't know why that was at the time, but, uh, I was always like, I was like, yeah, that was good. Other than the fact that the song kind of played all the way through and it wouldn't probably wouldn't have in reality, it would have been like, you know, Oh, Barracuda have all the clicking and everything. Um, so people don't, I mean, that's this in this day and age, people have no concept of, uh, you know, uh, even the slightest inconvenience of those kind of things back in the day that you put up with to have your music. Did you have any 8-track experience? I was really young. My brother was an 8-track aficionado. He's older than I am. Those things weren't easy to transport around either. They took up a lot of room in the front seat of the car, right? No, no. You had to steal a lot of milk crates to take all your 8-tracks with you.I think we're confessing to a lot of things here on the episode today. Oh, wait. Yeah, right. Wait a minute. Again, we're not recording this. We're fine. Sounds good. The statute of limitations is way past due on this. We're fine. We're fine. If Metagold wants their milk crates back, God help them. I don't know where they're at, to be honest. There's a link in the show notes. Reach out to Bob. He'll be happy to get your email. He'll be happy to make restitution at any point. Yes. But no, it… it's funny though, that, uh, all these kind of things. And I mean, it, in hindsight, as we're looking back at all these, it lines up perfectly. It's almost like, you know, a pool, a straight pool shot into the pocket where you hav

Maybe we should, uh, uh, check on him, send him a note and say, Bob, are you okay? And yeah, I'm fine. Wasn't near me. I, you know, I, I handle things like my parents do. I was like, well, if it's important, he'll call. You just ignore them? That seems to be what you did with birth control and child rearing. Ignore the problem until someone asks for help, and then it's a problem. Then you know. You don't know until you know. You don't know until you know. Oh, Miles. How am I supposed to know to change your diaper? You didn't say anything. Yeah.i guess it's not at your house quite a bit when i was visiting oh my god i don't know where this fantasy comes from i do not know these poor kids were looked like they were hauling around santa's sack of toys with a diaper oh my god i don't this has never happened i don't know what this guy's talking about this is never who's never happened i'll swear i don't know what where well So, yeah, no, we had tornado here in St. Louis. It was big news. Yeah. Everybody's talking about it. Yeah, I did. I did have people reach out asking if I was fine. Yeah, I'm fine. I'm fine. And I didn't. And you did not. Yes. Here I am texting my good friends who live closer to the affected area. They're…they're without power. I'm checking on them, you know, and then all your friends from New Zealand and, you know, right. Exactly. Yeah. All around the world is checking. Bob, are you okay, Bob? I saw, I saw the devastation. Yeah. This is your friend Sven. Exactly. Exactly. Well, Crickets. If it's important, he'll call. Yeah, that's right. I guess if he doesn't call, if I don't talk to him on Monday, he's just dead. Oh, well. I'll just reveal bits, I guess. Oh, yeah. Oh, well, there we go. The bingo card's full. Yeah, okay. By the way, I went to Diamond Dave's over the weekend while you were without power. I toasted to your good health. Yeah, I was like, oh, I hope they got power. I don't know. Oh, you're fine. You wouldn't be the baby. Yeah, but everything's fine. But yeah, it was quite the show, I guess. I didn't see it, but I actually went into the city today, and on my way back, I went by. There's this Amish furniture store off the highway, and this shows you the power.and the humor of nature. Yeah. So they have all of these Adirondack wooden chairs. They sell like hundreds of these, apparently, because there's about 500 of them out in front of the store. And all of those still in perfect alignment, yet the roof of the building looks like a crushed aluminum can. English. What happened to English? Yeah, it totally crumpled the top of their building. All their Adirondack chairs were still in rows. Oh, no. Oh, no. I know. Crazy. You should have bought one. Well, I wasn't at the exit. But yeah, they had big signs that said, yes, we're still open, even though we don't have a roof. It's all crumpled. Yeah. They don't need a roof. Don't spend your money, English. Although I've been to the Amish Sam's Club or Costco, whichever you prefer, and they have more technology in that place, I swear, than Sam's Club and Costco do. Hello. I'm the robot. They did the touch to pay. You don't have to put the card in or anything or swipe it. You just touch it. Oh, that's my favorite.That's my favorite. Yeah, they had all that there at the Amish store. I love that. They don't have lights, but they got touch to pay. They got lanterns. Yeah. No, they actually don't have heating. They actually have a… Geothermal. You know what they use in chicken houses? It's like a gas thing where you get like an old galvanized… trash can lid, and you have a flame on it, and it deflects it down towards the floor. Oh, that sounds okay. That's the heating system, but they have touch to pay, so go figure. Have we talked since you got the new Chicago Pope? Right. Yeah, what do you think about that? No, I'm not Catholic, but I've been I was really excited about it. Well, we, you know, we have, well, you more than me, but we have a person that I know that, you know, better who is got a sibling who's in the order. Yes. Right. Yeah. You know? Yeah. Now that you say that, I should ask him about that. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, he's like, he's like just two steps away at this point, you know?Yeah. I don't know how all that works, but yeah, I guess, yeah. Yeah, I don't know. I mean, you talk about six degrees of separation. He's like two degrees. And if you think about God being the third step, right there. You know, I really didn't think about it, but now you say that, yeah. Well, I'm glad I'm here to help. Yeah, I didn't put that much thought into it, I guess. I was like, man, he's got, you know. I just heard he was a Bears fan. I'm like, all right, man. Yeah, well, and that as well, obviously. I'm so happy. Again, you with being so involved in people's lives, your good friend from your other college days has got a direct line to the Pope, and you're like, hey, the Pope's a Bears fan. You know, if he has something important to say, he'll call. No, that's right. You won't hesitate to reach out. I swear to God. Yeah, yeah.So I have a couple of quick stories here for you from my last trip. I went to this restaurant that I always go to. It's a Mexican restaurant I love. And I got seated by an angry-looking Danny Elfman. He looked like if Danny Elfman were a serial killer. Yeah. I was by myself, and so he's like, table for one. I'm like, yeah. He gave me that kind of… And then the weird thing was, he separates these tables to give me my table for one. They had them lined up where they have usually a big group or something, and so he slings these tables around and gives me the table for one there. And Then this really old couple comes in. This guy is walking like Frankenstein, like he's got no choice. Yeah. And then they sit down at this newly separated table and proceed to order a giant pitcher of margaritas, although he barely made it into the restaurant. I mean, honestly. Yeah.Oh, that's all he needs. Yeah. Yeah. That's all he needs. I was thinking he's like, and I'm like, he sits down and he's like, Hey, I'd like a picture of margaritas. A picture of those margaritas. Cause that's what they're famous for. And, uh, but he says, give me a picture of Margs. I mean, he's, he's like, right. Give me a picture. Wow. And, uh, so then his wife, I don't know where I, I guess she dropped him off or something because she didn't come in like right away. She comes in, you know, like minutes later. And she basically sits to where I can't get out of my spot. Oh, no. I'm blocked in. So I can't get up. Do they offer you a Marg? No, no Margs for me. Hey, I'll have all…I'll offer one to this fat chick next to us here. Hey, do you want to… Hey, lady. Ever date a universal monster? You like my geographic tongue? So then they have like this trivia game going on all the TVs, right? And there's like a sports bar kind of thing going on. Yeah. And his wife is reading all the questions like… Oh, I can hear myself now. Can you hear me? Yeah, I can hear you. You had some static there. So she's reading all the questions like a kindergartner. Oh, what's the first tallest mountain in the whole world? Yeah, so then… Titicaca. Oh, it's a lake. Lake Titicaca. am i still static? You are super static, yeah. Oh my god. freaking thing. It sounds like uh star trek 2 where they're like jamming the frequencies. They're like, Jim, why are you trying to take Genesis? Why are you? Oh, the genesis device. Yeah. That sounds better now. That sounds better.And so then I finally finished eating and I want to get out of there. So I squeeze past this woman and I try to get out there. And then as I'm walking out, the psycho Danny Elfman leans into me and he goes, I would have never set those people that close to you. I was like, it's okay, man. It's fine. Yeah. He leans into me like whispers. It was creepy. My name's Dennis. The phone number is 618. So then I had another weird thing happen. Yeah. So the That was when I first arrived in town. And then I was leaving town, and I had to get some lunch. I was starving. It was time for lunch. And now it's doing that again. Yeah, it's been doing it. Oh, my gosh. Okay. We'll just switch over here in a second. Give me one moment, sir. One moment, and I will switch over.and then we'll be fine. Now you can hear me okay, right? I can, yes. So I stopped at the Steak and the Shake down there at Lake of the Ozarks. Oh, you love Steak and Shake. Oh my gosh. I did. It's not been as good as it used to be here lately....

Bad AI Transcript of the show this week

You're a quiet guy tonight there, Miles. It's electric. It's electric. Ah, just getting situated. Hey, everybody. Welcome to the show. This is Bob. Hey, everyone. This is Miles. You're convincing there. You may want to check your underwear label. Yeah, why? Let me see. I got to see if my underwear is… It says Calvin Klein. Nope. Nope, never wore it. You probably are a Hanes man, I would guess. Hanes. I like Hanes. Wait, did you get those Hanes on you? What is the name of that? How did that go? Remember when we used to sleep together? You're like, oh, Hanes, huh? Like, yeah. Like, oh, yeah. No, I don't remember that. I don't remember that at all. Remember that? Yeah, we'd have pillow fights and stuff. You're like, oh, hey. I don't remember that. Like, let's wrestle. I'm like, all right. Whatever. Whatever. I'm up for it. Whatever. What the hey? I'm down. I'm DTW, man. Down to wrestle, man. What the hey? Oh, wait. I think I recall. Here's a memory.A little sword fighting going on. Yeah, yeah. No, that wasn't me. That wasn't me. Oh, my goodness. No, we never wrestled. We've never shared a bed together. We almost shared a bed together. We almost did, yeah. I dodged that bullet, thank goodness. Yeah, well, never know what you did. You and your friend just share the downstairs. I'll sleep on the couch. My brother's into some things. Yeah. The door that doesn't shut, you know, just stuff like that. Yeah, stuff like that. Don't worry about it. No lock on the door. Just big gaping holes and things. It was just a different time, you know. Yeah. It's a community. No, we never shared a bed or wrestled. Speaking of that… Speaking of that, I only bring this up to rub it in your face, honestly. I was traveling last week and I don't know that I've ever actually mentioned this to you directly, but over the last 10 years, pretty much every time that I, not every time I travel, buta good portion of the time I travel, I'm considered a VIP. I believe it. And I get nice little trinkets and things because, you know, when I show up, people are interested that I'm there. And this last time was no exception. And I got into, I got in early so I can get in early, right? I don't have to wait until check-in. Oh. And so I'm like, I got to the hotel and I'm like, you know, can I get in my room? I don't push this or anything, but there are times whenever you get somewhere and you're like, I just want to go and, you know, get in my room and get situated and unpack my stuff. Right. A little five on one. Get ready. And now, come on, I'm not you. Come on. Well, you said you're acting like me. I mean, what's…Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. They call me the bishop Bopper. Yeah. Sorry to offend you. Sorry. Uh, so i got in early and i was in my room and, uh, there was a knock on the door. Like I was, I was there like an hour. It seemed like. Sure. Yeah. Unpack everything, hang up all my nice clothes and everything. And, Knock on the door, and I'm like, oh, I'm like, I wonder who this is, right? I'm not expecting anybody. So I go to the door, and Eb from Green Acres is there with a… If anybody remembers who that was. Eb from Green Acres is there at my door with a gift basket. Oh, Jesus. Yeah. Okay. And I opened the door and he's like, Hey, Mr. Douglas. And, uh, I go, he goes, Hey, you got a gift basket. I mean, and I'm like, Oh, thank you. And he goes, here you go. And, uh, you know, enjoy your stay. If you need anything, just tell me. And you know, I'll send up Mr. Haney next. Yeah, exactly. So now it sounds good.And these gift baskets are a nice touch. But I'm going to give you a little inside scoop on the hotel gift basket. Okay. Have you ever gotten a hotel gift basket, by the way? Is this from the hotel or the people you work for? No, it's from the hotel. Is it because you're like a frequent flyer or is it just everyone gets this? Oh, Michael's in the Chat. He says, yes, he's got the hotel gift basket lots of times. So here, well, Michael, then you will know the secret to this. Uh, and, uh, but so i get my hotel gift basket and i'm looking at, um, you know, I set it down and i'm like, Oh, this is uh interesting and i'm like unwrapping itAnd what I typically do with my hotel gift baskets is I take what I want and then I distribute the rest of it to people I'm with because they don't get gift baskets. So I'm rifling through this gift basket at this point. And I'm like, oh, wow, I got a whole thing of Nantucket Pepperidge Farm cookies. That's a good one, right? Put that in the plus side. And then I got some peanuts, honey roasted and regular, right? I got a couple of things of fudge. And then I got, this is the weird one. I got a big slab of Colby Jack cheese and some crackers. Are you still with me, Miles? I don't hear any comments from you yet. Miles is gone, so I'll just keep talking until he comes back because I can't hear him. And so I got this Colby Jack cheese and these crackers. What's that? Testing. Oh, now I hear you, Miles. Yeah. Normally you make comments whenever I'm unwrapping my gift bag. No, I have been. No, I was. I didn't realize that was that. I didn't hear you at all. Yeah.and call me jack cheese and the and the crackers were a weird one. And then, um, so i'm like okay i'm i'm doing a little uh parsing of, you know, one for me, you know, one for them kind of a situation. Oh, yeah. Yeah. And, uh, but i also had a refrigerator, which is fantastic. So I stick my fudge in my uh cheese in the refrigerator but it's like almost this kind of random items. Oh, and i got a couple waters a couple of, uh, nice Dasani, which is the, you know, ship water. Basically it's the worst no boss no nova i had voss at the last place. I had boss and coconut water and some others. Oh wow. Right. Yeah. Oh yeah. It was, that was a little more high end so i i get everything put away and whatnot, but the reality is, is that they, they have a shop.at the hotel. It's a nice hotel. It has its own, you know, little mini mart, as it were and and ebb goes dancing around the mini mart probably an hour before i arrive. And he looks for things that are just about to expire. And he puts them in the gift basket. This is the reality of these gift baskets right yeah and and so if you if you get one of these, always look yeah Always look and see the expiration date. Chances are you're getting stuff that's about ready to expire. But they wrap it up and make it look real nice. They put a card in there. Did you get tampons or anything? No. No tampons. Although that would be useful. You know what I mean? Yeah. Because I'm typically…I mentioned before we started recording, I never get to eat or anything. The cheese and crackers was duly appreciated because it was actually pretty good. Of course, it was one week within expiring, but it was pretty good. I enjoyed it. The weird thing is that this happens a lot. When I was in Las Vegas, I got a backpack. I got bluetooth speakers. oh shit. Yeah. I got, uh, chargers, like a fancy, uh, charger for your phone, for your watch and for your iPad. oh crap. Um, what else did i get? Oh, and then this is the, you're gonna crack up about this. So, uh, in las Vegas, the, the, the hotel person comes up to me and like mr lament uh would you would you like uhto enjoy a massage. Uh, yeah. Yeah. And I'm like, there we go. Yeah. There we go. There's no, I mean, I'm always nice. Yeah. But for me, there's no way in hell I'm getting a massage at a random, uh, you know, random hotel. I don't care. Right. Yeah. So it's, I'm like, no, but I'm always thinking about others because I go, but a couple of my colleagues might enjoy the massage. Oh, yeah. And then I tell them who they are, and I said, you might go ask them. And then they want to please me that they'll go, and they got massages while they were there. Yeah. And then they come back to me and they're like, Bob, why didn't you get a massage? I'm like, there is no effing way in this world. I'm going to have some stranger put their fingers all over me. You would have to be roofied for this to happen or something. No way. I know you well too much that you'd be like, no way. There's no way.There's no way. And then they laugh at me and make fun of me and whatnot. And they're like, Oh, I can't believe you wouldn't want a massage. And then they come back the next day and they're like, Oh, this massage was the best thing ever. And I'm like, I'm like, no, I don't. I took the backpack. I took the Bluetooth speaker, you know, I get all kinds of like tote bags and, and, uh, umbrellas and all this kind of stuff. Right. Yeah. You're like a robot. I can only have robot things. I do not want to see my touch. That's right. I'm going to go to the robot pizzeria again. I love that. If you want to send me to that. Robot. The funny thing is I'm in this… I would call it a predicament. Other people would be, gosh, I know you would say, you'd take full advantage of all of this if you were in my place. I'd be like, I'm hungry. I could use room service.You're going to whip it? Yeah, you're going to whip it. But I rarely take advantage other than if they give me the basket, I graciously accept the basket. But rarely do I. Because they're always like, can we get you dinner reservations? Can we get you this? Can we get you that? Yeah, and I rarely take advantage. They want to take me to dinner. I've been to dinner, which is the most awkward thing. If you can only imagine how awkward the massage would be. Can you imagine going to dinner with me? Oh my Lord. Oh, like, wait, some random dude gets go to eat with you or what? Yeah. Yeah. Most of the time are women, you know, it's with you, but yeah. Okay. All right. Well, hold on now. Let's not judge. Okay. Okay....

She said. That's all she said. She's large. She's large. She's large. Hey everyone, Miles here. Did you hear that tonight? Yeah, a little bit, yeah. A little bit? Okay, kind of low. Yeah. Working on it. Mm-hmm. Unbreakable. We alive, damn it. Where's this girl at? What's up? Where's that girl at? Isn't there a girl that says something? A girl that says something? Yeah, like, you're live. Oh, that already happened. You missed it. Oh, fuck. Live streaming is on. You weren't paying attention. Yeah, that's what… Yeah, that's what you're doing. Not paying attention. Just spending an hour trying to start a stream of urine for Cry 6. Cry 6. I'm old now. How is it? What? Explain this to me. Let's go out of the show. Let's just go out of the show. Okay, let's go. I don't. Yeah, the whole stream of urine thing. I'm not quite getting. Yeah, you don't want it. Yeah. What do you do?Stick something up your peen when you're young or something? What's going on? That's another story. Like a kazoo up there or something? Yeah. And you can play too. It's a flute. It's a flute. I was thinking it was a literal skin flute. Just saying. Yeah, they call me Bubbles. Well, I have something strange to talk about tonight. Very strange. You didn't introduce yourself. I did. You're not fucking paying attention. I said, this is Bob. Welcome to the show. Oh, I didn't hear that either, man. God, let me rewind everything. Jesus. No, I'll forget. Okay, just go. This guy is like blinking. You miss it. Mr. Pay attention. I'm sitting here. watching the wheels go round and round. All right. Yeah, so this is Bob. And this is Miles. There you go. Okay. I got one story for you. Go ahead. Now I took a time on that. So this is a few weeks ago. And I was driving on the highway. I was going up to Decatur. Yes. Anduh i can't remember where it was that exactly because maybe this will be uh mean something to somebody and they can kind of explain this to me or something but so i think it was close to glenarm or uh you know somewhere just outside of springfield illinois okay i go i'm driving and you know there's lots of overpasses on the highway and i'm driving down the highway, you know, at 75 miles an hour, whatever this highway speed is. And I swear, I saw something like hang its head down from the overpass, underneath the overpass, in the girders yeah yeah and then and then like kind of looked around, and then went back up into the girders. Now… Okay. Yeah, I know. Are there children up in the girders? Well… I mean, it was so much so… I mean, I was approaching it. I wasn't under it yet.This thing like drops like just, you know, kind of like head and shoulders. Yeah. Looks around right back up. And I'm like, and so then as I'm going underneath there, I'm like leaned way forward so I can try to look up while I'm driving. I mean, it was so freaky and it wasn't like, uh, it was like a child size thing. Yeah. It wasn't like a construction type person, you know what I'm saying? It wasn't like the village people, was it? No, it wasn't the village people, I don't think. Unless it was the diminutive village people, perhaps. Was it a manatee? It wasn't a manatee. That would be big. You could be mistaken for a manatee. Yeah, that's true. And so, yeah, I was so weirded out. I was like, it was like child size, and there was no features. It was totally black. Like, just darkness. Maybe it was smooth. The shape of a child's head and shoulders. Yeah. Any ideas? Uh…Are there any escaped monkeys maybe? Everybody goes for the monkey, right? Anytime you see something hanging up from underneath the overpass, it's always a monk. I don't think there was any escaped monkeys in the area. I mean, you always hear about that on the news. When it was kind of cold, you know what I mean? Yeah. It's been probably like two months ago, maybe. Yeah, two months ago. It was a bear cup. No, round head. Hmm. Roundish, not like a bear, which got the ears and all that, you know. That was weird. That was, it was really weird. I mean. It waved to you and handed you a beer and you're like, wow. No, no, it didn't wave at me just like just like i said looked out, looked around and then popped back up. Gone. A large rock didn't hit your car, did it? After you passed no all right okay it's not a kid. Okay.No, well, I have been in a car that's been hit by a large rock. In the past. Yes. I don't know. This is, uh. Yeah, I almost came through the windshield. That big, it was a huge rock. It was like silent bowling ball. Like someone threw it at you? Yeah. Actually, I was talking i went to front to my friend indicator Yeah, yeah, that happened. The big rock happened in decatur yeah yeah okay yeah you said there was something like before where i almost got myself killed because of two times. Once when the rock hit and then once because we started chasing people. And that was probably not the right thing to do in that part of town so yeah i was younger so yeah i did not stop. I did not uhinvestigate any further other than I was like really like what the hell just happened you didn't pull over and like get out your flashlight I was just like oh my gosh there's a guy hanging wait a minute it was like a kid hanging from the overpass underneath just his head not like his whole body but then I'm like no there's not there's a man on the wing yeah exactly I looked in my rearview mirror I was really kind of like, what the hell? Yeah. It looked like somebody was just curious and just looked around and then went back. That's weird. It was weird. That is weird. I've been saving that one for you. There you go. Well, you talk to all these cryptid people all the time. Why don't you just email them?I will. I mean, I'll eventually get to that, but, you know, I like I thought I'd throw it at you first and see what little information I would get you well this is a new cryptoid, you know, I mean, the bridge street overpass or whatever and you know it's called the turd burglar yeah and orgenta arienta or the fuck yeah yeah Yeah. I don't know. That's weird. No, I've never had something like that. Now you've got me interested. Well, I mean, you always have these, like, I saw an orb. Hey, I saw an orb. Well, I usually doubt you whenever you're like, hey, there was an earthquake this morning. I'm like, no, there wasn't. You know, there was. Yeah, there was. Remember? Like, I'm always doubting you. Yeah, well, that's because you were whacking off in the shower. You're like, no, there wasn't an earthquake. Yeah.Eric was moving for me. I know that. And then you find out it's true. You're like, oh, hey. I'm really good at distracting myself. That is weird. So you saw some kind of cryptid or something. I saw something. I don't know what it was. It poked its head out, looked around, and just… It was a blink and you miss it kind of a situation. I can tell you that. Was it a bird, maybe? No, because it was too big. It was literally child-sized. It looked like a child-sized shadow. Yeah. That's weird. It wasn't man-sized. Yeah. It definitely was smaller than that. Was it the little guy from Game of Thrones? Was it that guy? Peter Dinklage. Well, he's got, I think, average size head, but he's just very diminutive. This was like, you know, swimming from the overpass. I think you can put out a book on this, like all the cryptoids you've seen. I'm adding it to my list. Your UFO sightings, now you've got cryptids. Mm-hmm.Ghosts? You were in a haunted church to the shadow thing that i saw, so. Yeah. But it was under an overpass, so i wasn't sure what to call it. And it was daytime, right? Oh, yeah. It was uh like probably like eight seven or eight in the morning yeah i was i was trucking on up north, and then i think you need to check this out. Well, I wasn't going to stop. I was on a schedule. Oh, I see. I'm always in, you know, I don't just drive around like you aimlessly. Hey, today I think I'll just burn a tank of gas. Let's go. That is me. That is funny. You're always doing that. You're like, let's see how far we can go this way before we have to turn around and come back.and then i about it like, I just spent 30 bucks for nothing, man. Yeah, I just burned a whole tank of gas for no reason. I'm an idiot. All I got was this fantastic, greasy burger yeah yeah so i mean i'm always i've got to meet somebody, or i've got to be somewhere, or Man on the road very purposeful right you just wouldn't drive around and be like No, that's not me. That's weird. I don't know. That's strange and funny. Strange and humorous. I like strange stories with no conclusion. I do like them. I've been up that way since then. Didn't see anything. But I will keep an eye out. And you were by yourself, right? Yeah, I was by myself. You did not get video or anything? No.I don't have it installed at the moment, but I have a dash cam. I believe it. I should have run that with me. I might have to do that. I had a dash cam for five years and I ran it continuously for probably about four and a half years or whatever. I had to get my windshield replaced, so I had to take it all apart. I haven't put it back together again. The whole idea, the reason I got the dash cam was to catch wildlife running across the road because I had that wolf running in front of me. All right. Yeah. And no one believed me. And so then I'm like, I'm going to get an effing dash cam. I'll tell you. When I got the dash cam, nothing ever happened. Yeah. Yeah.That's what happens. The dash cam just doesn't happen. Today, just today, you're going to laugh at this. This is another weird one. For a half an hour, I watched a fox and a cat play in my yard.

Hey, everybody, and welcome to this conversation with, I'm going to butcher your name, Jeff, Jeff Dwoskin. Close. We only talked for 10 minutes, you could have asked. Dwoskin, Dwoskin. Oh, that was going to go with Dwoskin, and I thought, for sure, it's not Dwoskin, it's Dwoskin. Oh, wow. I ruined that one. He is at jeffisfunny.com. He is a pop culture expert at this point, right? Would you say that? How many of the 10,000 hours do you have in for a pop culture expert? I think I'm 100,000 in. Well, 10 times. So he's a 10x pop culture expert. And… You know, I was trying to remember where I ran into you at, Jeff, but I couldn't today. I need to take better notes when I'm doing these things. But I happened upon you, and I thought, hey, this guy looks really interesting. So your background has varied quite a bit. First of all, you're from Michigan, and I think you still live in Michigan. Am I right? Correct. Correct. So you're a Michigander?I'm a Michigander, yes. Okay. So, I mean, that alone. So, I'm in St. Louis. We are, you know, what would you call that? We're vertical from each other, right? So, straight up Michigan. St. Louis is great. You got Enterprise Rent-A-Car down there. That's right. What have you got there? Well, we got Enterprise Rent-A-Car, Theater Car. They're all here. we have Motown. Yeah, I think you got us beat on some of these things. We got the Arch. Who cares? We got the mackinac Ridge. There you go. Mackinac. Got Mackinac Island. You got Sand Dunes. Yeah, you got a place where they don't let people drive a car, which is amazing um considering that you can drive a car just about anywhere um yeah i mean you know, it's good. We got the highest murder rate per capita.Awesome. That's a good, we've, we've been bumped off by Camden, New Jersey, I think a couple of times, but we're somewhere in the top 10. Right. I mean, you don't want to be second. Right. Yeah. But we've been number one, a couple of times I know within the last few years, cause I keep seeing it on my feed because it's like, Oh, you're in St. Louis. Guess what? People die there randomly. Um, so yeah, I don't think it's, it's not random. I don't think. Well, Random is just people going… Well, you've never driven on the highway. No, it may not be that random. I don't know. But there was a person who was just firing guns off while they were driving down the highway. So that's kind of random. Not to bring everything down, Jeff. Bring us back up. So you're a Michigander. You are the pop culture…10X pop culture expert, but you're also a programmer. Is that right? Or some type of social media whiz kid? Not a programmer, but I am a product strategist, digital strategist. Oh, I'm sorry. No, it's all right. I just come up with the idea. Is that like a sanitation engineer? That sounds a little constructed to me. No, no. It just means I don't know how to literally program it. I just know how to say it. These pieces should do this. Nowadays, AI, I mean, it's on the way. You're going to be able to do it. Jeff, I have faith that this is going to be, by the end of this year, you will be a programmer in some way, shape, or form. Don't be totally fooled by some of those sites. I mean, they have to advance a lot. If you want to talk AI for half a second, but when you build one of those things, you just can't change it.You can't just easily change it. A lot of times it has to be connected to a database and it's got to do this. There's a little bit. It's not totally code free. You know all that stuff. Go tell your programmer you're going to hand him one of those code free things and see how long he doesn't quit. Apparently you're an HR expert as well. You're a comedian as well. Is that correct? I have done standup comedy for quite some time. So out of all these things, I mean, obviously you're kind of a Renaissance kind of guy, as they would say out of all these things, which one is your favorite, which is my favorite. Uh, which is your favorite. I think I, I love them all. And so I kind of juggle, but if I were to children, come on, let's just go. I mean, on a day to day basis, I like being the, uh,technical guru guy. But when i'm on stage doing comedy, then there's nothing better than that. Oh, okay. So you kind of, it's like a duality of sorts. Right. I'm like Batman, but without. So wait a minute. Okay. So is your comedy very grim? yeah I just like the chick across the road to get to the other side. i mean, that, that's the, be the batman side of it. I don't know. Maybe you're that way in the, uh, for the social media stuff. I just mean dual personalities yeah you're like you're like instagram's going downhill. Um, no, that's interesting though. But so, so you kind of juggle all these different things. Which one would you say you have to do the most of out of that? all out of that combination of comedy. I don't do as much anymore. Just after covet i kind of,chilled on it a bit and just, uh, covet uh, a lot of people got creative during covet and there was like 500 more comedians at the end of it so i just i kind of backed off of that a little bit. And then, um, so my, I mean, the majority of my day is, is my company called stampede.social, but like, uh, and then i do the podcast where i interview pop culture folks, you know? So, you know, maybe i'll do, there's some weeks i'll do one interview, a couple, sometimes i'll do two, you know, it depends. It's a weird, um, it's a weird group that i interview because it's like, it's whenever they say yes, I'll do it. You know what i mean i don't know my schedule when they say yes. I can try and spread it out. You know, some of them are really old or much older, you know? So it's like, I don't put those off. Right. Let's get that. Let's take care what are you trying to say? You have a wholepile of things that are released on certain days that the news breaks or something like that uh no but i do have like um i have lots and lots of episodes unreleased. If anything would happen right now, there'd be lost episodes for months from oh wow now that's a good question. So here's, I have never understood that, right? So I've been doing this for quite some time and i don't understand the the caching of all of the content. What's, what's, what's your thoughts on why you have such a, a cache of stuff in the, in the backdrop there? Um, it's, it's not that I, it's not that I'm proud of it or anything. I mean, it's per se that it's, it's partially because of the answer to the thing I just randomly said, which was, you know, if I reach out, I put out one episode a week. Okay. So, um,But if I record two a week, right? So then that creates a backlog, right? And so if I do that month after month, then I continuously have a backlog. Ah, I see. And then the benefit to having a backlog is I can then choose the order I want to release them. So meaning like, if i talk to a bunch of comedians and i talk to a bunch of, um, you know, maybe actress from this or, you know, people from that, I can then kind of, I have the luxury of not doing five comedians in a row just because i happen to interview five comedians in a row because they said yes. So there's that. I, when i interview people, I try and keep it evergreen. So even if we interview, did something today and i were to release it tomorrow,I would try to remove any specific references that you make to a specific point in time, unless it's a very generic, like, you know, like if you say like tomorrow's Ringo Starr's birthday, you know, maybe I'd leave that because you know what, if you want to look that up, I guess, you know what I mean? But like, you know, but, oh yeah, but this Memorial day and, but I released it in January. I were like, you know what I'm saying? Like those things that can remove you from the moment. I'll kind of say, out or the things that you might have a tornado today or several people might have a tornado today tonight into tomorrow i yeah that's true that's true i you know well you know like i released an episode that, I mean, I'm embarrassed to say it, it was a couple weeks ago, but like i recorded in 2020 and and so a lot of covid references on that one so i took most of them out. Like a lot ofloud i took out a lot and jeff i can't smell anything. What's wrong? Jeff. Well, not like that but like uh but you know this banana tastes like plastic. I didn't want someone to be able to hear it now. I want you to be able to listen to an episode i did two years ago anyway and just enjoy it in the moment and not be like, oh, this was dated. So I think we should add curator to your list of uh Like, I don't specifically interview people that have a new show coming out. It's not that I don't or wouldn't. It's not my primary. I don't get into those PR cycles that some people do where they're like, you know, where they talk to someone, you know, it's like, well, my show is coming out tomorrow on Amazon. Right. You know, and then you're listening to two weeks, two years from now. And that show didn't go anywhere. Right.Things are bomb. Yeah. I mean, it's one thing if you're like just mentioning it and it's like a lot of times it's based around people writing

Can you hear it no, but I can see a picture Yeah Uh-huh. Hey, everybody. Welcome to Snake Show. This is Bob. It's backwards. Here you go. How about that? How about that? How about that? It's backwards. You couldn't hear it, though, huh? No. Well, I've got to work on that, I guess. Yeah. Oh, well. We'll be fine. Yes. It'll all be. It's all right. You're going to take the next part here, Traveling Wilbury guy? Even when push comes to shove. Oh, wow. That's very Orbiston-like. Wow. I'm impressed. I'm impressed. It's all right. No, I used to listen to that album a lot. We ran the monkey man. We're hot up for cash. This man stayed up all night smoking cocaine and hash. I don't know. Fuck. I don't know. Fuck it. Fuck it. One Dylan, one electric. I lost interest. I feel more like.I opened the closet and what did I see? Me, I eat dust. I've been listening to a lot of Gary Newman lately. I've been listening to me a lot. That's interesting. I don't know the words. Something I don't want to fade away. But I don't want to fade, I love. Yeah, okay. That's all made me. So, this weekend, I was Mr. Handyman. Mr. Handyman. Mr. Handyman. You were so handy. I'm handy. Yeah. Not handsy. Handy. I bet you a handsy. Yeah, I went and got a stump grinder. I was the name of this girl in college. I knew stump grinder. Worked at the local bar. Do you have any idea what I'm talking about here? Yeah, it's a thing. It takes care of your stumps. Yeah, it rips up your stumps.Yeah, well, yeah, I know that. What the fuck? Big apparatus that you, it's got like tank treads and like a big buzzsaw looking thing at the end of it. And you, it's got hydraulics and you basically grind away a stump. If you want to talk about bush hogging next, I'm all for it. That'll be another story for another day. Okay. So you're grinding your stump. Yeah. So I'm like, I'm not a handy person. I'll be honest. You are. No, I'm not. It always scares me. And my wife is like, you know, these stumps have got to go. My wife talks like Christopher Walken. These stumps have got to go. I don't remember your wife talking like Christopher Walken. Bob, go get the stump grinded.First of all, I hear no cursing in it, so I know it's not your wife. That's true. Because your wife really curses a lot. She curses more than Christopher Walken. She does. That's something to be of note there. Yes. Yeah. She is the uber mob boss Christopher Walken cursor. Yeah. So I've tried to do this now for a year and a half. I'm afraid of this thing. I'm… worried that i'm going to, you know, like take off my foot or something. Yeah. because this is a monster. I mean, this thing rips through trees yeah the trees um and so i finally, the other thing is you have to, you can rent it for the day at the rental place that's close by me. Yeah. But if you can get in the sweet spot, you can rent it for the weekend special.which means you pick it up on saturday afternoon. You don't have to bring it back till monday morning. Oh, that's what you want. That's what i want right because yeah you know, they want to make money and they're not open on Sunday. Right. And, you know, and so like, I've been trying to get this weekend special for a while and i keep missing. And then a couple of times i got the weekend special and then it's like, it's gonna rain cats and dogs all weekend. I'm not going to stand out in the fucking rain with this leg mauler machine and slip underneath it and then get chewed up. I canceled, but then I had it set up for this weekend. Now I have to get it here. This thing is a monster. It literally is like…some kind of, you know, Shriner monstrosity, tears of stumps. And so then my wife's got to take the car, which we have a tow hitch on the minivan and she has to take the car. And I'm like, I can't, I've got the weekend special. Right. But honey, I'm like, I got, but she had to take the car. So I'm like, she's like, just cancel the, I'm like, I know, but you've been, you know, hounding me for a year and a half to do this. And I got the weekend special and, you know, she's like, whatever, you know, you never get anything done. I might as well call you miles title. That fucking miles. I would have dug it out. Less done than him. Yeah. So I call up my buddy.And I'm like, dude, can you help me out? I can get the stump grinder back if you can get it to my house on Saturday. Yeah. And so he's like, that's not, that sounds more like me. That's more like me. Yeah. He's really, you know, thinking about this, you know, the time commitment. Yeah. And he's the funny thing. A lot of my friends are just like you. in a lot of ways. Yeah. They're always horribly inconvenienced when I'm talking to them about something. Right. And even though it's not inconvenient, they're just being selfish. Yeah. That's me. Yeah, exactly. And so he, and I finally go, I'm like, I can, if you can get it here, I'll buy you, you know, buy a couple of lunches or something. I'll take it back. You just have to drop it off. He's like, okay, well I'm going to be, you know, North of you on Saturday. Yeah.you know, pissing around or whatever the hell he's doing. Oh, yeah. Yeah. I'll come down and I'll pick it up and I'll drop it off your house. Cause that's, he lives South of me. And so then I'm like, okay, sounds good. Meet me at this place at three o'clock. Right. I'll be there early. I'll get all the paperwork done. All you gotta do is, you know, swing in. We'll throw this fucker on the back of your truck and get going. So I get there, I get all the paperwork done. He's not there. Uh-oh. I paid. He texted me finally. I'm on my way. I'm late. Okay. Oh, this is me. That is you, yeah. I like this guy. He's just like me. He is me. Yeah, well, there's a lot of other attributes that you would associate with that he has as well. Browser history.Yes. Browser history. So then I'm, I am stuck there talking to the yard guy, you know, the guy that manages the yard of all the rentals. Yeah. Yeah. Kind of this, you know, kind of this guy, you know, he's not, you know, yeah, he's not doing any calculus or anything, but that way. Yeah. I got it. So then I, I'm like, I'm compelled to entertain this guy for about 20 minutes. Got your nose. Got your nose. No, I'm like, I'm standing there out in the yard and I'm like, give me the once over on this here machine. I'm trying to think of things for him to do to kill time as I'm waiting for my friend to show up late. And then he justRips through them. Well, you just pull the choke here, turn this key here. This makes you go forward. This makes you go backwards. This makes you, this makes that thing spin. Move it side to side. You're all good. Boom. Howard. Yeah, exactly. Ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding. Now I'm like, I'm like, okay. And then now I'm like, well, how much gas does this take? Oh, Christ. I feel like, I feel like I got to engage this guy. Well, we're waiting because I feel bad because the timing is so off. You know what I mean? How did you propose to your wife? Are you married? You have nothing to talk about. And he's like, oh, it's like six gallons. How much does he use? Oh, the last guy used about three gallons in it. I don't know what he did. And then he's looking at it. He's like, it looks like he just dug in the mud. It's all muddy.It's not even cleaned up. It's all filthy dirty. It wasn't filthy, but it had some mud caked on it. And then I'm just like… So then I just walked around the yard with him talking about all the implements. What does this do? Well, I'm going to tell you all about it. I have this weird feeling this guy thought I was coming on to him at one point. So… Hey, where'd you buy those jeans? He's like, why is this guy hanging out back here with me, asking me, that bobcat, what's on the front of that bobcat? And I did ask him if he had a brush hog, and he went and showed me, oh, it's back here in this uh container you want to see my hog? And then, of course, I said, how do you work that? And then, how much gas is that? Oh, my God, yeah, for sure. I would think, like, this guy's into me. Holy cow.I was like, I felt so terrible. Poor guy. I'm like, I, I, I was trying to think, what can I talk to him about? Yeah. You know, cause it's like, he's just sitting there with me. What was the name of your first dog? Yeah. He's on his way. He's on his way. Oh my God. What's your favorite color? Then. So I get, my friend finally arrives and we're, trying to hook him up. And now I got another guy who comes out to help who is the smarter, slightly smarter guy. And then my friend's ball hitch or whatever, it does not want to go on there even though it's smart. So then we're beating on this thing with a hammer. I know I'm going to hear about this because we're beating it with a hammer to get everything to go on and everything. Oh my gosh. I'm like…i can't, I mean, I don't, these predicaments, I'm not built for going out in the public and engaging with, you know people right yeah i'm gonna say you really on a regular basis here, you know you had to be out of your element on this one, you're like oh yeah and then, you know, I feel like i have to, you know, I was gonna you know, read his palm yeah i don't know what i was gonna do i you know I'll tell you how to drive a stick shift. I can teach you. Rock, paper, scissors. Come on. Yeah. I'm just like trying to think of all these. And then my, you know, it all, it all worked out. My friend hooked up and, and he brought it home and I actually didn't hurt myself, which was amazing because then I bring it home and immediately I start using it because I've got weekend special, but you know, I got to get to,work. Yeah, get it going. I'm digging shit up. This thing,...

Mike Oppy

In a candid conversation, two hosts and Mike Oppenheim (not that one) navigate topics from nostalgic childhood drills to the anxieties of modern active shooter preparedness. They delve into the evolving landscape of art and entertainment in the digital age, lamenting the decline of focused attention. Mike shares his personal journey as a diverse artist grappling with the challenges of capitalism and the rise of AI, prompting a broader discussion on societal shifts, unrealized potential, and the growing sense of disconnect. Despite these concerns, they find a measure of optimism in the cyclical nature of change, suggesting that current anxieties surrounding technology may eventually lead to unforeseen improvements.

Hey, everybody, and welcome to a conversation with Mike Oppenheim. Did I say that right? You did. Okay. Usually you go by Mike Oppie, and so you make it easier on everybody to not have to have the last part, which is the more confusing part. I think everybody can do Opp, but it's the Oppenheim part that is difficult. Now, were you inundated with information during the whole Barbie Oppenheimer thing? Well, so when I was a little kid, I grew up in California in the Bay Area, which is like famously in Berkeley, there's signs that say like nuclear free zone and stuff. And I, like the idiot I was as a little kid, saw that this guy who was associated with the atomic bomb had my name. I mean, I willfully ignored the ER at the end, which is not my name. And so I told everyone at school as like a little kid that I was related to him.And the teacher was horrified at me, and I didn't understand it. And then they didn't call my parents in. It wasn't this dramatic.as a kid, it felt dramatic. And they basically sorted things out, and I was told, you're not related to the guy. And then I was told, you also might not want to be related to the guy. He was associated with communism and disgrace. And then the rest of my life, up until the movie release, was a lot of people saying, oh, Oppenheimer, are you related? And I'd say, no, no, no, there's no E-R at the end. So I would be correcting them. But then I did some research on him, and he's a really great guy. He actually did some great things. And the movie tries to capture that, but he was kind of pinned for something he wasn't really doing. It's funny, because I was just being silly, but I thought maybe you probably did. But it's amazing that people forget the last part of the name. Yeah. You know, like, I guess…What would you say? Oppenheim would be the name and then Oppenheimer would be of Oppenheim, perhaps. Yes, I think so. Oppenheim is a town in Germany. I know that. So that's interesting. But I figured just because of the first part that people would probably ask you a bunch of questions, even though that's not really your name. But it's funny that you had a story about how you thought, oh, yeah, I'll be… I'll be Oppenheimer, sure. What the heck, right? It's cool. He made the bomb, right? Yeah, yeah, big bomb. And, you know, it's now 2025. We teach history very differently. This is like in the 1980s. We were still in a Cold War with Russia, so we were pretty braggadocious about it. Right, well, yeah. So, yeah, in the 80s, exactly. Did you have to go through the nuclear drills? Do you remember these at all? Yeah, me too. Oh, my gosh. It sounds so ridiculous when you…When you're a kid, you just kind of go along with everything. Yeah, I'll get under my desk when the nuclear bomb goes off. Now you're like, what's the point? It's idiotic, right? I mean, I think the whole idea behind that was just to make everybody feel better maybe, even though what everybody was being asked to do was really quite ridiculous. Yeah, and I liken it in a completely opposite way too. I have been told I have young children, so they have not yet been – taught this but they do active shooter drills in schools now yes oh gosh yes and to me i'm liking it because i'm saying it's actually the polar opposite to me you're introducing a concept to children hey other kids have done this and will do this and b it's just like i don't know i don't like it i would rather not have a drill i would rather not talk about it and i would rather just if and when it happens but you know yeah that's the weird thing. So the funny, if you.I'm not studying on these kind of things, but I would say lightly taking in the information is there have been school shootings forever. It's just now it seems to be… Well, now because we have more people, there's more of them. And I think it's a bit of a… statistical thing, right? So because there's more people, then you have more of this other behavior and so forth. But as far as active shooter drills is something that my kids had to go through. And yeah, I wasn't all happy about it either. But you're right. It's probably better to be somewhat prepared. And I guess that's probably the logic from the nuclear drills either is to try to be to at least you're addressing an issue, even if you'resolution isn't always the best solution um you know, because the reality with the active shooter, not to be a downer, but his bullets go through walls uh so i mean our schools aren't built of of uh you know kevlar and um you know, just because you you barricade the door doesn't mean that uh something's not going to get into that room um it's just less likely to be as deliberate possibly um So, yeah. But, yeah, we don't want to tell the kids about that uh stuff hopefully there's no no kids are listening to this about my yeah talk about that what's funny uh my introduction to school shootings was actually in uh 91 the phenomenally popular song jeremy by pearl jam in the video yeah yeah and it tells the story of a kid who goes to school and he speaks in class today and it's a reference to him shooting, I think, one or two classmates. And it's a very gory, bloody video and i don't even thinkthere's a chance in heck that it could be released nowadays. It probably would never pass, you know? Right. Nowadays that we would probably wouldn't, although there's not many music videos anymore, which is kind of sad. I was just thinking about that. I just was, I had seen something. Oh, actually I was, I was on my fire TV. I was watching something. And then one of the ads was spot, check out the latest music videos. So I clicked on it and it, it did play music videos, but I was, it, it just kind of, made me a little bit sad because, you know, you talk about the 80s. Back in the 80s with mtv and everything, we had music videos and it was it was the content. It wasn't the background right and and then like that, like you mentioned the jeremy song, that was, you know, something that was uh very powerful at the time because it had everybody's attention because you were, it wasn't you just put it on and cleaned your house and you had these things going on.you actually, you know, we're sitting there paying attention and, and the, the videos got more and more complex, uh, after they got going, you know, the, what was it? 83 was MTV. I'm thinking. Yeah. And so the first videos were very quite simple. And then by the time you get to the nineties, I mean, they're incredibly, they're storytelling, right? There's a lot of stuff going on and it got really complicated and, and more interesting and so forth and now i think we're back uh because the one that i watched was a k-pop thing uh apt i think it's the name of the song anyway it's very simple it's just people dancing around on a sound stage singing the song and and it had some graphics and things but it was more like the original it was more like you know flock of seagulls uh standing aroundI'm still thinking about them. Yeah. The Bengals walk like an Egyptian just because I was a little boy and I was like, oh, these are like the most beautiful women in the history of the world. Like I remember, like, and this is pretty pubescent. So it's like very innocent, you know, it's just like. Right. And then also like as a kid in the 80s thinking adults wear like headbands and like long dangles, you know, just like all the style choices were like fascinating. Yeah. A little bit out there, right? I do. When you look back. Yeah. I like that you brought it up just because I do feel like this sadness about the attention span in our culture. And it's not like that I care about an individual's attention span, but I really am sad that like television shows are made for people holding a phone in their hand and barely watching it.

So if, if,if we want to elevate ourselves a little bit here, Mike, and say what we're doing here is a bit of art, right? So we're having a conversation, and it's cached in the podcast light and so forth, and you and I are talking, and so we're interacting,...
