It should be any minute now. I'm coming out. You know, just because Miles wants to hear it. I'm good. Hey everyone, this is Miles. You're very subdued now that we're recording. I don't know what happened to you there. I'm here with my friend Jimmy. I wrote a book of poems. Bingo! It's called How One Bullet Ruined Christmas. That's a good one, isn't it? It's coming out soon. I think that was after he did Liberty Valance. Yeah. It's a book of poetry about bingo, and that's the last poem. Oh, okay. One Bullet Ruined Christmas. It's all about bingo, but you may not want to hear it. I thought you were going to talk about his prison book called Jimmy Stewart, I Like My Soap on a Rope. What, what, what, what?I don't know where to go with that. I don't know. I don't know. This is miles. I just started. I have no, I don't know. I was driving to Chicago. I was just, you know, you put together words. I go, well, maybe funny, like a name of a poem, like how one bullet ruined Christmas, you know, like, uh, as it seemed funny. I don't know. A lot of people that, uh, have that one on their playlist. Yeah. I don't know. You know, just thinking of funny things when you're driving. I'm like, oh, okay, that's funny. Well, speaking, you've just mentioned it. You went on a little bit of an adventure this weekend. Yes. Do you want to tell? I tried to approach you about it on our usual talking ahead of time. And you were like, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.No, no, no. No, my son had got concert tickets to a rock and roll program at Soldier Field this weekend, and I felt obliged to go. I'm talking like my aunt now. It's funny. I felt obliged to go. Why not? Yeah. So I go out to… Go, let's go. Let's do it. And, uh, we got there, no problems. And we ate at our favorite restaurant. I'll plug for a place called twin anchors, which is like the best rib joint in Chicago. Uh, it's sinatra's old place. You know, he used to hang out there. They filmed a couple movies there, including one of the batman movies. It's pretty cool. It's in the neighborhood, old town, uh, got to talk to the manager a little bit, you know?Uh, I was hitting around for free cocktails and food, but you know, that didn't happen, you know, and, uh, sure. But it is what it is. It is what it is. And then, uh, it is what it is. We got to see, uh, you know, the old neighborhood where my dad grew up at that was right by there in old town there. And, uh, we, uh, my son's like, there's a pop-up store. He goes, before we check in. Right. Yeah. To the fleabag hotel that we are in. Which hotel did you stay at? Which one? I thought we were at the Congress, actually. Oh, okay. Yeah, I've been there. Yeah, Congress. And I was mistaken. We were close to it, but we were actually not at the Congress. I'm like, oh. Oh, you weren't at the Congress. No, I'm glad I checked my phone because I would have walked right in and demanded a room over the room that I didn't have. Where's my room at, buddy? Listen, mate. Listen, mate. I'm talking to Al Capone.Yeah. Right. Yeah. My dad's from Chicago. Kiss it. And he goes, listen, uh, it's going to be a little bit of a hike, but, uh, there's like a pop-up store for this concert. Right. I'm like, okay. And, uh, so we're going down and you see everyone wearing their concert shirts, all these young folk, you know, all these guys in their twenties. Did you say who you were seeing? I don't know if you mentioned that yet. Yes. Uh, it was called the very best of bread. So the band bread was getting back together. And, uh, I'm a big fan of the song. If, as you know, no, we were going to see, uh, yeah. Then why can't I pay you? Oh, but you seem to know it pretty well. You know it well, my friend. Yeah.No, it was a system of a down and event seven fold. Gotcha. Which, uh, I know just a little bit from hearing my son's playlist. So I, I'm not an expert at it, but I do know some songs. And, uh, so we, we book, you put on your girdle and your toupee and you went to, yeah, I, yeah, I'm wearing some bears Jersey walking around. Like I don't fit in like do to Luke. And, uh, you know, you gotta, uh, So we get down there and, you know, after being like in the disgusting filth of new Orleans there about a month ago, Chicago seems a lot cleaner, you know, like, okay. Chicago is a lot cleaner than new. Yeah. It doesn't stink quite as much. I'm like, okay. Right. Yeah. I think, yeah, that's, that was my experience as well. I'll be honest with you. It was, uh, yeah, I don't know if it's safer, but it seemed a lot cleaner. I mean, actually Chicago is even safer. Yeah. And, uh,So we get to the location and there's a bunch of people in line. I'm like, Oh, right. Well, it is what it is. And, uh, so there's these two guys ahead of us and they're talking about something and one of them takes off and then the other guy turns around. He's like, Oh yeah, we're cutting the line right here. We're stopping the line. What are you talking about? Yeah. We're selling out of merchandise too quickly. We want to reopen tomorrow, you know, so you guys can come back tomorrow. We're sorry, but, um, What kind of bullshit is that? Just sell it out, man. Then you're done. I'm like, okay, all right. Which it didn't open today because guess what? They were sold out. Oh, what a bunch of bums. That's a video I posted there yesterday. The system was working because you got sent away. I was trying to bribe the kid with a couple bucks. I will give you the Washington Twins right now, man. He goes, what?I go, you know, you know, come on. Come on. It took him a minute to get. He was all money. Quit playing stupid. Yeah. He's like, nah, nah, I can't do that. Nah, I can't do that. Come on. I did that for all these other guys. I got too much money in my pocket. Yeah. Right. I'll never be able to make it home. Come on. I got too much. So I'm like, all right, well, we'll check into the flea bag. You know, I'm like, okay. You don't want to mention the name of the hotel. I'm not really now. It was like an old hotel had been refurbished into like a more moderate one, you know, but you could tell that it was quite old. You could see like pipes in the ceiling. And so, you know, I was like, okay. Did you go to the, uh, what was that breakfast place you sent me to? Uh, I did go there. I spent like $35 for two breakfasts this morning. Yeah. Okay. I can't remember the name of it now.Uh, the chateau les shits yeah it's my university of chicago downtown. Yes. Yes. And, uh, so on the way back, like there's like people with, you know, like concert shirts and stuff heading towards this store. I'll get you five dollars for that shirt five dollars so my son's trying to be a nice guy and warn these people. And after about the fourth time, like, you know them you know, dude, let them just. You know, it's on their own, man. Yeah. Screw them. That's life, man. You know, life's a big pile of shit. Just let them find out. No, no, it's my duty. And I'm like, no, just, I'm a good guy, dad. I'm a good guy. Just let me do it, man. All right. All right. All right. You gotta do what you gotta do. You know, I can see my son is nothing like me. You know, he's just trying to be a nice guy, warn people, you know, like, no, really. Hey,I'll give you $50 for the shirt. They got them down the street for 25. Well, yeah. Well, that's funny. Yeah.
