Bad AI Transcript of the show this week

Do-do-do-do-do-do. Hey everybody, welcome to Psychs, this is Bob. Hey now, this is Miles with Static Radio. Hey now, hey now. Hey now. Hey now, Hank. We should do an episode where we just like sing the whole frickin' episode, you know, like a half an hour of just… Well, if you put it together, we sing too much. Yeah. I told you… We should do comedy karaoke where you just make up your own words and they're funny. Yeah, I know. Yeah, I do. Hopefully they're funny, but maybe they're not. Yeah. Maybe they're just sick and twisted and nasty. That's all my nicknames. For instance, I think you would have a song called Saved by Facebook. Maybe I will win. I seen a breastfeeding video. It was lonely Saturday night. I wasn't feeling right. Save my Facebook.Too silly. Too silly. Stop the sketch. Too silly. Oh, my goodness. We've just been having too much fun. It's too much fun. Sure. Say it by Facebook. You know, any song that you think of, you could twist pretty good into being some kind of weird sexual thing, I think. Yeah. I can't stop this feeling. In my pants tonight. When you look at me. With your fingers deep inside. Begging you girls easy. When I hold you. And I'm really still. We'll work on that concept a little bit. I look forward to coming to a feed near you. Hey, everybody. If you have a favorite song, just call in to Static Radio. It sounds like… There used to be a great show called Make Me Laugh with Bobby Vann. Oh, Bobby Vann. Yeah, jeez. Show me a Coke. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, my God. That reminds me of something that Bobby Vann would host. Comedy karaoke. Chuck Beres. He's dead, so. Chuck Beres. Did he do Make Me Laugh? Was it Chuck Beres? No, no. I'm just saying he'd be a good host, too, though. But he's dead, too. I think he's dead as well. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.Where are the Chuck Barrises and Bobby Vans of the world, right? Not anymore, man. Not anymore. They don't exist. So I… I got showed up by the UPS store lady. Oh, yeah. Were you flexing? You were like, hey, check this out. Well, I wasn't trying to flex, but… So… My wife seems to be in a pattern where she likes to get things delivered and then have me take them back. Mm-hmm. You know, like these things get delivered and she's like, oh, I don't want that. And then she's like, would you take this over to the UPS store tomorrow? This isn't the pegging set I ordered. Bring this back. Oh, thank God. It says. Ooh. One size fits all. So… we got this. So my son guy has a bunch of books and he has a bookshelf, but, but he needs another bookshelf. And so right. Flat pack bookshelf. It's supposed to be here. Well, the one that she ordered doesn't show up and it's like stuck in transit. Right. So she orders another one as if this is like, um, unclogging a,you know uh dime store you know crank thing where you get the egg with the prize in it so oh i'll just do another corner ending and it'll knock both of them out right i'll just keep buying bookshelves until one of these shows up so lo and behold they both show up on the same day yeah and she's like well i want the original one but now i don't want this super freaking heavy other bookshelf right that i've purchased, would you take this back to… Oh, you got your dog going. I'm going to have to move. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I didn't know they were going to have their wrestling match right in the middle of the show here. Yeah, because it only happens every fucking week. But anyway… I can't sense patterns since the accident. Keep talking. Go ahead. She…you know, she cons me into taking back this other bookshelf. I'm like, okay, I'll take it back. And so, and then there was like, you know, there's always two things. Well, we can't take this other thing back. So I've got a bookshelf that weighs like, I don't know. To me, it probably weighed at least 125 pounds. And then she's got something that weighs nothing. I'm taking them both back and juggling them into the ups yeah So I get up there and all they have at the UPS store is all these really, I think they're like college students or high school students or something. But this is a very busy place. I don't know where you live, but it's just constant. Apparently where I live, everybody just orders shit online and then returns it because it's constant chaos at the UPS. Are you okay, by the way?Yes. I'm sorry. Yes. I'm sorry. I was distracted. I'm okay now. I was watching breastfeeding videos. I'm sorry. Continue. So you're judging me two things. So I'm like, I get there and it's just chaos. I get in with this heavy, the heavy thing in the light thing and heavy bookcase. Right. And then I get my turn at the counter and this young lady says, You know, it's like, you know, you know, everybody's returning stuff. It's like a constant returns. And so was she, what was she Blair or two? Do you think, or, Oh no, she was, yeah, she was probably a, definitely a Blair. Nice. Okay. Go ahead. Yeah. I got a visual. So she, I go and they got the scale right there. And I'm like, do you want me to put this on the scale? And this other lady, she's like, yes.Who just kind of like seems to be walking around, you know, like the musher or whatever to get all these people working. A musher. She's writing numbers on people's hands. Yeah, exactly. And so I'm like, okay. I mean, it's kind of heavy. She's like, that's okay. So I put it on the scale. And then you… You probably have never done this, I'm assuming, because you never do anything that seems slightly technologically advanced. So then you hold your phone up with a barcode, and she scans it, and then they throw it in a pile, and the UPS guy takes it back to Amazon or wherever the hell it came from. And so she does that with both things, and then the musher comes back up. A musher. Yeah. She's this little tiny musher.woman. She's a little bit older. She's probably like in her 30 or something. Carol Ann! Carol Ann! She comes back up to the thing and she starts grabbing this bookshelf and I go, I go, ah, you know, I'm like, it's heavy, right? I mean, it's even got a sticker on one that says heavy. Yeah. She picked that thing up like it was fucking nothing. J.B. Summers. Yeah. She stuck it under one arm and just walked off with it. And I'm like, wow. She looks at me as if I'm like an idiot. And, uh, so yeah, I got, I got kind of, I got kind of shown up. Uh, the musher, uh, yeah. Yeah. Was flexing on you a little bit. Many years ago, I worked for the United parcel service. Yes. Many, many years ago. Yes. And, uh, um,And I'm like, I've lost all this muscle from not working hard all these years. And here I get stood up by this lady, the musher. Large merge. Whipping around. No, she wasn't very large. She was tiny. Whipping around bookshelves, flat pack bookshelves like they're nothing. You know what I mean? Yeah. And she used to look like, yeah, it's not heavy. Like, what are you, an idiot? No big deal. I mean, you know, I throw around car engines in the back here. Come on. Come here. Let's bench. What can you do? Come here. Yeah. What can I do? Apparently not even one 25 anymore. So yeah, apparently you're weak ass. I was like, I was, I was, I left there totally dejected, you know, the mush.feel like a riding crop walking around. This isn't even like christmas time or anything. This is like the dead time. This place is so busy. There's people constantly coming in, dropping off returning shit. There's all these husbands probably like, God damn it i don't know it's no it's no wonder we have a amazon warehouse, you know, not too far. mm-hmm and uh it's no wonder it's there everything's coming and going everybody's getting it to their house and then giving it back oh christ i don't know what's happening you know that stupid i don't it's weird if i don't if i can't buy at the store i don't get it man yeah that's what i'm saying you don't yeah you don't have this experience because no i don't i can't relate you're like um you're at the walmart at the customer serviceAnybody know where there's maternity bras and breast pumps? I'm asking for a friend. I need some razors and a shave cream too. I'm just, you know, I'm being prepared. i'm feeling engorged yeah they're more worse than one yes so yeah but i mean that's uh yeah i was like gosh this is i mean i'm like how far i've fallen gosh i'm a weakling little wiki boy i'm pulling this you know looking like I don't know who I'm trying to think of who, uh, somebody who, who can't like Charlie Chaplin came in with a bookshelf or something, swinging it around. And then this lady's just like, you come stumbling. Yeah. Yeah. So anyway, I don't, I don't want to. Yeah. I think I'm going to have to go to the gym or something, maybe. I don't know. A millennial kicks the Gen X's ass again. Yeah. She probably was. Yeah, a millennial. I guess she would be a millennial, right? Mm-hmm. Yeah. Oh, there you go. Wow, I saw you were humbled. Yeah, I'm humbled, all right. Mm-hmm. Earn it. Mm-hmm. Earn it. Oh, my gosh.Here I come in thinking this is heavy, and they're just like… Got little toddlers throwing shit around. You get mistaken as a woman sometimes. I was wondering maybe if they thought you were like a post-menopausal woman, maybe bringing in a heavy load or something. Okay, hold on, Grandma. Yeah, I wish I got mistaken. Get some help. Although somebody did hold the door for me. That was nice. Here you go, Gramps. That's just because I was swinging around with his two before, you know. Yeah. Looked like Laurel and Hardy or something, but I'm both of them together. He looks more like Hardy. Yeah. Well, you know. Yeah. Oh, we're already here. Yeah. Nobody knows any of these references. I come swinging through the door like Chris Farley....

Bad AI Transcript of the show this week

I don't think anybody wants to hear that, honestly. I hope that wasn't recorded. No, come on. Oh, no. Oh, no. There he is. Okay. I lost your audio. No, it's still there. Hey, everybody. Welcome to the show. This is Bob. Hey, everyone. Miles. Miles self-pleasuring himself. Oh. My family's starting to listen to the show, so please, yeah, let's not. Hey, I wasn't the one who was moaning at the beginning of the show. I had some things going on, okay? I can't really go into it. Yeah, apparently. Yeah. I don't think… trying to upstage Conan O'Brien's masturbating bear is really the way. Yeah. Yeah. Well, welcome to my fans only. So you're only fans. You always do everything. I know I have a thing. I don't know. I do that. It's like you got word dyslexia or something for you to say. Instead of letter dyslexia, it's word dyslexia. So it's like,I don't need any TCH. Be funny. You will. Yeah. I don't know. That's so funny. Yoda syndrome. Also. I do. I know. A little claws for hands from. Yeah. Hey, everybody. It's. It's been one of those days. Yeah. Whatever's going on in your life. I'm hoping it's okay. It's. It's doing okay now. I just have to get resituated now. So we had a sick animal and they're convalescing. So we're dealing with that. So everything's okay at the moment. Okay, good. Nothing tragic. Although there is something tragic that happened recently. Yeah. Although you probably won't think it's so tragic. Well, first of all, Detroit Lions didn't win. I just wanted to mention that. Yeah. So your first Polish Nostradamus prediction was Kansas City Chiefs versus Detroit Lions. Detroit wins. Never going to happen. Damn it. Never, ever going to happen. I thought I picked Eagles. God damn it. But…and this is what pains me yeah say go ahead greatly you are you have a already have a partial hit on the list. Okay, go. Do you have any ideas which one no no do you want to take a guess no i don't no i don't want to guess! No, I don't know i don't guess no uh Michael is going to be in the Golden Girls. I will never hear the end of this. What? He is Michael Gardner from Savage Unfiltered. Has told me that That he is going to be in the Golden Girls stage play. Oh, no, he's not. As a mailman. He's not going to be Ma. Okay. If you take your Nostradamus powers, you could say, well, mailman starts with M-A. Yeah. So maybe you just didn't get the whole thing.Oh my God. He listened to the show and could not believe that this even came up. Really? And then divulged to me, uh, last week I held it because it was after Monday. I held it till tonight. Hey, yes, he will be in Chicago in July, Chicago even, uh, in July to be, uh, a mailman, uh, in the stage presentation of a golden girls. I mean, I have more than that. Wait a minute. Now he had not heard the show. He had not heard the predictions, right? No, no. This, this floored him as much as it's it it floored him probably as much as it's flooring me. Yes. How did you feel like, Oh my God. I thought first thing my first thought was you motherfuckers are inAnd then I realized when I was talking to him that, well, that would entail you actually doing something beyond. And so I'm like, okay. The chances of that are even slimmer. He could be an understudy for Ma. Well, he actually told me his lines for the mailman, so… He read me the script. Hey, Dorothy, you want me to deliver this in the rear? I said, well, we know a mailman that could give you some inside tips. Yeah. Wow, that made my day. It makes your year. Are you kidding? This is the first one that you even get close to. Well, you know, they say. Not only is this you know i mean you couldn't you'll never get more right than this. Yeah, well, it's pretty close. It's pretty close. I mean, I don't think any of the rest of them are gonna hit it was pretty close. Yeah. Oh, and, uh, you know, just another little, since we're talking about, you know, insider bits here and so the uh i don't know if i can look it up now while we'redoing this but anyway people i did i do little short pieces of the show you know to kind of get people interested hopefully yeah and the floor is lava thing everybody was there was hundreds of people on the shorts that watched that stupid thing and we're i guess that's something of interest to people anyway My game show idea. The floor is lava. Well, there was a game show called the floor is lava, but you said the Hawaiian version or something. And then, yeah. Yeah. I mean, so maybe they're mistaking it for a real game show, but I don't know. But anyway, people seem to be, you know, more into that. That's my Shyamalan twist. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Your Shyamalan twist. I would like to dance is the Shyamalan twist.I would like to read you Michael's social security number now, if I could. Yeah, his bank account. His bank account. His waistline. The street he grew up on. Yeah, well, I mean, that part you could do, because I watched you do that to people in college. And this is pre-Google, folks. Yeah. Miles would peruse various publications that would have information on people. And then he would go, hey, do you live over on, you know, Dart Drive over there? And they'll be like, how do you know? Well, no, you talk to someone and you tell me their name and then I'd sneak away and find a phone book. Right. And like, hey, aren't you at 123 College Avenue? Yeah. And they're like, what? What? Are you spying on me? And usually it was women. And, you know, kind of like pre-stalker Miles there. There's nothing funnier than a creeper that knows your address. Like, oh, what? Who's this guy? Yeah. And then you'd say their phone number and it would just be. Oh, the phone number was even funnier. Isn't your phone number 52?One, two, three. Yeah. How did you know that? Wouldn't you like to know? You were being a little stinker. That was like the best. Yeah. Like the closest I've ever come to like some kind of like magician or something. I don't know. David Blaine before there was David Blaine. And just do the voice. So, but anyway, you picked… Michael's audition for Ma on the stage show of Golden Girls as your pick. I'm supposed to buy you dinner at Twin Anchors in Chicago. It's not Ma. It's the mailman. I think I'm going to get you… Do you have a Jack in the Box there in town where you're at? No. You told me you recently got a chicken place. I'll owe you a chicken dinner.You didn't send me to KFC. That's good enough. Okay, KFC. Deal. For your half-assed correct half answer, then I will get you one of those nasty bowls that they sell at KFC where they just sweep the floor and put it in a bowl. I just wish I could have been there when this all came down. Like, what did you say? Yeah, I was like, he told me, and I'm like, what? And then I'm like, yeah, I'm like, this is not happening. It's not happening. So yeah, it was not only was it a shock. Yeah. It was really kind of a kick in the nuts. Honestly. Well, yeah. Keep laughing. Keep laughing. Virtual kick in the nuts there with this. It's coming down. Not only that, you would have had like a trifecta if you would have said in Chicago, but you didn't say that. He said stage show, which it is a stage show. The only piece you didn't get right was he's not playing Ma. He's playing a mailman. Well, you know, we don't. Maybe he has a romantic thing with Ma, though. Well, yeah, that's what I insinuated when he told me. No, I said Blanche. I'm like, here's your mail, Blanche. Bend over. Oh, my God.I'm getting the vapors. Oh, yeah. Anyway, I hear the end of this. I'm in your head. Your gift card to KFC will be on its way as soon as I get around to it. I've just put in a secret camera in his apartment, so I just pretty much know everything he's doing now. Poor guy. It's all he needs. You spying on him. so what's uh what's going on with you? I keep getting these secondhand stories which i don't i've my night's ruined, so how about yeah all right gosh sorry excuse me um so let's go with some secondhand stories i guess okay so yeah there's a lot of secondhand going on with you the ghost hand yeah Yeah, the ghost hand. And, uh, so my youngest son, uh, has decided to maybe take a few college classes here and there. And he, uh, picks up this, like, um, I think it was like sociology class or something something i don't know psychology or sociology or some they're like well let's go.let's go to like a nursing home and uh we'll talk to some of the patients and we've kind of pre-selected patients. And I want you to interview them and then you're going to come back and then we're going to talk about it. You're going to kind of tell us. You're going to give like a lowdown on this uh nursing home person gotcha and uh it wasn't a very big class, I guess. I don't know. Anyway. So, uh, they give my son a couple, three names and he goes there and like each one, like they already have like family in the room visiting them. Oh, so he's an intruder. Yeah. He's like, oh, well, okay. Oh, that one. Okay. I go to the second one. Oh, no. Okay. Strikes out. That was the teacher. She's like, well, just, you know, pick someone from our class and talk to them.That'll be good enough. Oh, okay. Now it's now not an old person, but a younger person. Yeah. Just like, you know, like some, you know, stupid college age person. Hey, Bob, what's your, what are you like? What's your hobbies? You know, I'm going to be in the golden girls. You like that? Now bear in mind that my son is, is somewhat of a fan of music, pop music to some degree. And, uh, uh, so anyway, I will just change the name here just to protect the innocent, but basically there's like, what's that? Slipknot. Slipknot. Yeah, no. Uh, so there's like some, you know, older,...

Oh, really? I have no clue on this. No, I don't know. This is all news to me. You got to want it. You got to want it. Does she have a scalpel? Maybe she could cut it. No, just teeth. Oh, my Lord.

Yeah. Everyone. I was like, wow. Mr. And Mrs. Schmingy in New Jersey.It's coming out of three holes, everyone. Look, we've got confirmation. That was before cell phones. We have no evidence that that actually happened. I'm sure the evidence was all over the place. Yeah, there was DNA. Yeah. Anyway, people don't want to hear this. I'm sure they don't. At this point, everyone's tuned out. Yeah, all your techie friends are like, out, out, dump, dump, dump. We're not listening to… You know, oozings from people's bodies. Yeah. Yeah. Especially Miles Title's body oozing. Right. Something like Guy, you talked to last week. He's like, I'm not going to listen to this. Right. We're just talking about dickfoot and stuff. All you guys say is balls deep. Balls deep. I haven't said that for a few weeks. I know. I'm just saying if they go back and listen. I know. I don't like to go back to old material, though. I don't like that.Always new, always fresh. Always fresh. We're always talking about fresh stuff. Fresh and new. I'm trying to decide what story I'm going to talk about. Are you going to go with a story? I'll give you the choice. Me playing with myself? Do you want to hear about wildlife or do you want to hear about home improvement? Man, God damn it. Oh, I like your wildlife stories a little bit better, I guess. Unless you are hurt in the home improvement. No, I'm not hurt in either one of them, thank God. Okay. So maybe you won't like either one of them at this rate. I won't. They're going to suck. So have I told you about the wolf sighting? No. Oh, okay. Well, let's see. This is all new.for you. All right, we'll bring it on, Cork. Yeah, exactly. A wolf. So, a couple of three years ago, thereabouts, I was driving in the country between little towns, and I saw a wolf running across the field, like full speed, full tilt. Okay. And it ran in front of my car. All right. And it ran from, you know, one field over into the woods. Okay. And I came home and i'm like, you won't believe it. I was driving and this wolf ran in front of my car. Oh, that you're so full of shit. Yeah. There's no wolves here. It was a Husky. It was, it had to be a coyote. I'm sure. Right. Right. I'm like, no, no, it was a wolf. And they're like, yeah, it's corky was a wolf exactlyand they're like, no, no, no. So I'm like, whatever. So then probably about, this is pre-Christmas. So, you know, back here, my wife starts, we're both home. My wife starts yelling. Oh my gosh. I think there's a wolf in the backyard. I told you i told you. And I was busy. I was busy. And I'm like, what? And she's like, well, it's either a really muscular coyote or a wolf. And so I tried to get up to see it. It's gone. So then I'm like, we have a little, you know, I have a little time. And I said, I bring up a picture of a coyote and I bring up a picture of a wolf. And I go, which one was it? She's like, it was the wolf. What? Yes, it was the wolf. So we had a wolf in the backyard.You mean I was exposed to danger potentially when I was there at your house, like there's been wolves and stuff. What are you talking about? We got danger around here constantly, like 24-7. No, no one told me this. Why? So, you know, I talked about last week how I like to check the cameras. Mm-hmm. I caught my brother-in-law, you know. He saw his dog. Nature was calling for him, yeah. Yeah, he saw his dog. So I was checking the cameras. Yeah. And there's foxes here. We've got several foxes. And they're dancing around my camera. So that and foxes and the way the cameras. But my wife swears because she showed me and there was paw prints out in the snow that look like wolf paw prints outside of our windows. And so now I am deathly afraid of being outside at night becauseI think that I'm going to get attacked by a wolf. Oh, we don't want that. Yeah, come on. So tonight, I was out late. I sent you a picture from the steak and the shake. Yeah. I was just being silly. And so we got home really late because we were out doing stuff. And then I come in and I have to unload the car because we got some things. I couldn't shut the garage door with the van all open. So I'm out in the garage constantly turning around waiting for there to be a wolf to bite me. I swear that I've been plagued now with fear to be outside after dark because of this wolf. Oh, I don't even want to come to your yard anymore. I'm like, man. I know. It was wild. It was weird. But nothing happened. I mean, I'm okay. Nothing happened. Wow. For real, though. I can't believe it. I'm so freaked out. I saw the wolf. For years, I've been running around out in the dark here. And now, all of a sudden, it's in the yard. And my wife tells me. And now, I can't even function. I'm like, is there going to be a wolf there? I can't leave the garage door open. Oh, there's going to be a wolf in the garage.Well, if you're playing bingo, let me see. Bob has seen the Thunderbird, a UFO, and now a wolf, apparently. In that order. Have I seen a Thunderbird? I haven't seen a Thunderbird, have I? Well, I'm sure that's coming next week. Hey, man, I was on steak and shake, dude. So, yeah. So, I didn't see the wolf in the yard yet. I'm hoping. It's too bad you're such a weirdo and you don't talk to your neighbors because you probably go to the neighbors and say, hey, did you see a freaking wolf? I know you would never talk to your neighbors. Yeah, exactly. My neighbors would go, Bob. Who are you? What the fuck are you doing over here? That's the way they all talk. All my neighbors talk like that. Every one of them. I'm the only one that's not, you know,Yeah. That doesn't have a real dirty baseball cap and tobacco in their mouth. Yeah, I get that feeling like you shouldn't have effed with someone you shouldn't have effed with. Where's my banjo? Like that old El Camino. Right, yeah. I don't know. But yeah, I'm frozen with fear now. Yeah, I would too. Jesus. So yeah, I'm hoping to catch this on the camera now my wife pointed out and i saw this big paw print in the yard in the snow and so i i was you know i've been looking through the camera footage and i haven't found anything yet and now she's telling me it's a skinwalker so i'm even more oh god now yeah now she's getting in your head with this like oh shut so yeah i need you to come downBefore it gets to be too late and I need to put you in wolf patrol out there.

Hey, everybody, and welcome to a conversation with Movie Lovers Unite, specifically, John DeGregorio. Yeah, you actually got it right, man. Thank you. Oh, wow. Well, that was a lucky shot. I could have gone anywhere with that, so. You did really good. I'm proud of you, man. Well, you know, it's kind of one of those, you have a lot of syllables in your name, so DeGregorio. Imagine trying to spell it in English. Well, imagine trying to spell this. I spelled my last name in grade school. Oh, my gosh. Yeah. I could play Wheel of Fortune with it and maybe spell something different. Yeah, because you got two I's, two O's, an E. I mean, all you're missing is a U and a Y. You got them all in there. So, yeah. You got all the vowels. It's a Wheel of Fortune. There you go. Right. So…Actually, I met John on KJNA podcast one night just out of happenstance. And then we did Fright Night and Dune. Yeah. And so, yeah. But I wanted to talk to you. So basically, I just talked to folks about what they're doing. So how did you come up with Movie Lovers Unite? So it started off like as a Facebook page. And so, you know, my thing is this. I'm not big on Facebook groups. I hate Facebook groups. I hate trying to be an admin on a group. I had people try to get me to be admin. So I'm like, look, I'm not an admin. Put me on a page. I'm good to go. I'd rather go ahead and ban someone and I can just like the person and be done versus having to go through a bunch of members. But how the page came about was this. I got tired of seeing like fake movie news.and if you remember movie pilot back in the day, I got tired of seeing fake news and stuff like that when it came down to uh sites like movie pilot and we got this Covered, but we got this cover came out like later on. But I got tired of that. So I'm like, you know what? I want to go ahead and create a page where people can feel welcomed. Not only feel welcome but be able to talk about their favorite movies just as i talk about my favorite movies and they have a safe place to do it without being judged because all movies are subjective. I might like, you may not like, or there might be certain scenes that you liked and I didn't like. And you can't measure film physically or anything like that. It's just something that cannot be measured. So, you know, I always say all movies are subjective. I always root for people that love their films, even though I may not like their film. I'm like, good for you. I'm glad that you liked that movie. It didn't work for me, but I'm glad it worked for you. That's great. But…you know, I was always in that type of space where i like i want to do a movie new new movie news then after that, I was like, okay, time to make a channel. I have, and then at that time, too, I also had somebody else that was working with me on the page, and i didn't put any type of advertisements into it or anything like that because i don't pay for advertising and well we got the admin at the time that i had was like, well, let's put some money into it. Let's go on ahead and do it. so Then after he left, it just was just me. And I had a couple of other people. And it was just like, you know, basically people coming and going. But, you know, I would never take anything back. And I'm happy that even though we may have our differences, I'm actually happy that he did support the page and he made it what it is. And then, of course, I continued off of it. But, you know, after that, I've just been there.It's just been Rossi and I ever since with just the page. But I want to say I started back in 2013 or 15. I think with the page now, I have like 22,000 some followers on it. Wow. That's a lot. It's done good. And everybody was telling me, oh, you cannot do a movie page. Because a movie… Like, movie taste and stuff like that is different for everybody said yes But if you do it right, in the right kind of context, it can work. I said, I can do movie memes. I can do memes from different movie quotes, stuff like that. I can make the algorithm work. And so, that's what I did. Um Then one of my friends like well, you need to make a youtube channel. So, I was like, okay, now it's time to make a youtube channel. So, in 2000 and, yeah, I want to say 2013, though.i started watching amc movie talk and i was trying to learn the lingo, learn the business side of it. So I discovered john Campia, AMC Movie Talk, started watching them, watching how they do things as far as stuff goes. And then i decided, okay, it's time. So I went on hit made the youtube channel. Then YouTube changed their ways of doing things. You know that um you have to have at least a thousand followers at that time in order to go live. And I was using Google Hangouts to go live. Oh, right. Yeah. So think of it like this. So I'm like, okay, so now I can't go live anymore. And it would take me three to four hours to just upload one video because my internet speed was so crap because I lived down in the city. Here's the thing. I don't live out in the city area at that time. And so I had the most crappiest internet from AT&T. So you were on DSL back then. Yes.And so I decided not to worry about trying to do a movie show anymore. Then my friend D comes up to me and goes, have you ever thought about doing a podcast? This is like in 2019. Okay. So it evolved into being several different things. And I also had another co-host named Charlie and stuff like that. We had our differences and stuff. And then Rusty and I was like, look, it's always been you and I doing this together. Let's just make it just you and I doing it. I'm like, okay, it works. But, you know, D was like, well, have you ever tried doing that? Have you ever tried doing a podcast? So 2019, I started the podcast and it was on my cell phone. And you remember Anchor, right? Oh, yeah. Anchor. Yeah. They got bought out by Spotify now. Right. So then I was like, okay, so I got Anchor. I'm using Anchor.I'm using it on my cell phone. And if you listen to like earlier episodes, you can hear, uh, crickets outside. You can hear different things because I'm doing the shows in my car. Right. Oh, okay. Like in the summertime and a hundred degree weather in the South. Yeah. I'm going like three or four bottles of water in my car because you don't have the air conditioner on. I'm guessing. Cause it's too noisy. Yeah, exactly. Yeah. So, even in the evening time, I'm doing an hour-long show in my car in the evening time, and you can actually hear the crickets and stuff like that. I was like, I like the sound effects. I'm like, that's not sound effects. That's actually crickets in background they're like oh that felt really relaxing. I'm like, well, I'm glad it did, but that wasn't intentional, but i'm glad that you enjoyed it. So, then i finally managed to be able to save up enough for a computer, got me a mic,Got me stuff set up. But also, too, at that time when I was doing just the audio stuff, I didn't know how to edit. I didn't know how to do any of that. So I was just uploading episodes and stuff like that. And I was doing podcasting for about a year for the audio. And I'm eating lunch one day, right? So while I'm eating lunch, I had someone message me. I'm looking at my spam folder at lunch. And I happen to see a publicist from Netflix. Oh, cool. I'm like, what? So I'm like, this has to not be real. So I ended up, I messaged her. She goes, yeah, we would like to actually do something from Martha Luther King Day. Why don't you do a trailer reaction to a movie that we're releasing on that day? I'm like, okay, perfect. I'll do a reaction to it. And that's when I did that. And then I started networking with her more. She's like, well, do you like short films? I said, yeah, I like short films.Here's how you try the Holly Shorts Film Festival. So then after that, I started doing film festivals with the Holly Shorts Film Festival. I always knew what I wanted the podcast to be. I came up with a goal. I want to be in film festivals. I want to have sponsors. I want to do this professionally for the rest of my life. It's all a matter of getting there, right? Because you're thinking, how long is this going to take me? is this going to take like a four-year plan five-year plan or anything like that, you know? And it happened within a year. Wow. That's fantastic. Yeah. And I didn't expect that. I didn't expect that to happen in a year. I also didn't expect to be able to interview coleman domingo a year later. Wow. So a lot of stuff is like pinch me now. I'm dreaming. I'm living my life like i want, butStill don't have no funds coming in, but that's okay because I love what I'm doing. But at the same time, I'm humble enough to be like, wow. Are you still sweating it out in your car? No. As you can tell, I'm in. You're inside now. Yes, I'm inside now, not sweating or anything. You guys don't have to donate to me or anything like that. I promise you I have a house. No, that's wild. So do you think, Like, were all these things iterative? So, like, the page begat this, begat this, and then it's a culmination of all those things? Or what do you think, you know, kind of tipped it? Was there one particular thing that kind of put it over the edge? I think it had a lot to do with the audio, even though it's in my car. Even though, you know, yeah, I'm just uploading. I'm not even editing anything. Everything's uncut, raw and uncut.And to know that I captured somebody from Netflix and you know what I'm saying? It was, it felt surreal because I wasn't expecting it. I thought for myself, there's no, I thought, okay, this is my plan. I'll get a thousand subscribers because that's what they normally look at is the subscribers, the followers and stuff like that....
