Whiskey and Wisdom with MarkZ, MikeB, and Zester. 02/05/2025
Hey guys, welcome to Whiskey and Wisdom. I’ll bring in the regular crew in just a moment, but after an extremely warm summer in 2024 that saw a spike in power bills, now households are seeing the same problem with heating bills as America heads into the peak of a frigid winter. Families are bringing attention to the exceptionally high heating bills they received earlier this month that are almost double that of the previous month.
This rising utility costs are even forcing some to have to decide between paying for food, medicine, or their heating bill. That’s why I use this amazing portable heater. And I absolutely love how toasty warm it makes my home feel without the added heating costs.
This amazing device is a portable but powerful mini heater that makes any of my rooms warm and cozy in no time. Not very important here, but back in the Carolinas it is. It’s compact enough that I can take it anywhere, but powerful enough to warm up bedroom, office, living room, or anywhere else.
It’s neat. Anywhere else you need nearly instant warmth. Plus, it includes built-in safety features like overheat protection, adjustable heat levels, from simple warmth to toasty comfort, which family and I love.
And lower heating bills is icing on the cake. Do your wallet a favor and grab one. Up to 60% off this winter season only at staywarmnow.com. Plus, order today and you’ll receive free expedited shipping, a 60-day satisfaction guarantee, and several other free bonuses.
Once again, that is staywarmnow.com. Now I get to bring in the regular crew of, well, you know. Winter? Geez, it’s 75 here. I got my windows open.
Oh, I got to get rid of Dave’s coat back there. Yeah, well, you have another polar vortex coming, Mike. Not feeling it right now, buddy.
I’m sleeping with my fan on in the bedroom. I always sleep with a fan on. And all you ladies, it is just as spectacular as you might imagine.
I’ll be right back. Oh, wait a minute. We lost Mike.
I think he turned the mic off after that comment. He’s in hiding. Yeah, right? Yeah, let’s see.
With this crazy crew, D-Rambo, you have no idea what we’re going to get into today. Right, Patriot Tulips? No, no, I just had Dave’s coat back there. It just looked really bad, so I wanted to get rid of it.
Dave what? Dave had his coat back there. It didn’t look good over my shoulders. My Kirk vs.
Gorham poster looks pretty good. Yeah, new phrase for the day for global warming is global warming whiplash or backlash. That’s what you’re suffering through right now.
Really? Now, Jen and Mike’s show was on fire today. Are you going to share a little before we get into relaxing? If it’s done in the first 10 minutes, we can get away with it. Are we talking? No, no, no, no.
This is YouTube. You do not get to get me banned. Okay? That’s the only requirement here.
Now, have a little fun. Me? Me get you banned? I wouldn’t do that. How many channels have you lost? Like 18.
I don’t know. Yeah, whatever. Whose channels? If you combine all the followers I’ve had and subscribers I’ve had over all my YouTube channels and Twitter channels, I’m up to a million.
I’m like in neurotic territory. By the way, to my friend Gary Neurotic, I know you’re having some family problems. Gary, I know you’re not watching, but I just want you to know that you’re awesome.
Well, you know, quickly, it’s too hot here. It’s too warm. I don’t want to have to turn the air conditioning on if I wore my long sleeve.
But besides that, you couldn’t see my guns, you know, if I wore the long sleeve. I’ve got a much easier one. And I’m sorry, Kugler, but wearing anything that is black right now in this house is just a non-starter.
The cats are shedding to such a degree, it would be a… I would be the color of Tino. Well, I don’t know if you’ll be able to see it, but… I was trying to hold up Penny’s tail, and that’s why I have a black cat. It’s right now, normally, it’s not that bad.
But at the moment, it is insane how much these cats are shedding. Yeah, I’m feeling pretty much 100% right now. I had a good day today.
Did a lot of work. And now, Mark Gray said, Mike, you should share the bond information he shared in you and Jen’s show. Okay.
Did you hear, I’ve got a man, and I’ll tell you more after, because I have to protect identities. But a buddy that I met when I was in Reno, aggregating currency, got that emergency call this morning. It is time to be in Reno.
He’s not been in probably four years. That’s interesting, because I have a bond guy, or know of a bond guy, who’s been seeing funds, his commission, from the U.S. Treasury in his bank account since like October. And it says pending.
And he was told, look, sorry about the way you’ve been treated for the last two or three years. You know, the grownups are back in charge here at Treasury, and you’re going to get paid this week. And we apologize for everything that you’ve gone through.
You will be paid out by Friday. In other words, that hold will be released. He will have money in his account.
Once that happens, of course, it’s on. So, you know, Jen got, tonight is a possibility, and through the weekend is more likely. So that’s what Jen got.
I got told flat out from people who know people in Iraq, not directly in Iraq, but people who know people in Iraq, that they’re positive it’s tonight. So that’s where we’re at. I don’t expect it to be tonight, but if it is, I’m not going to be doing Strictly Football tomorrow.
I’m not going to be doing my other casts. I’m going to be at the bank or wherever, you know. Getting ready to go Ferrari shopping.
Yeah. Really got a, yeah. I’m hoping to go soon.
Yeah. Tree Beards. So yeah.
I like that one. No, Tree Beard, that is Moss. That is Moss on the north side of the tree.
He’s getting a tan on the back of his neck, because that’s where the sun’s hitting. It looks like you had charcoal on your hands and you, you know, rubbed it on your face. Yeah.
Rubbed it on your edges. You know, at least it’s naturally dark though. Mine’s sort of naturally red, so I have to dye it.
Now let’s see what Zester looks like with the tan. Zester looks very handsome tonight, ladies. Coming from Kukla.
Now ladies, I want you to embarrass him as much as you can so he blushes, so you’ll know what he looks like with a sunburn. Zester, you’re like me. I, I, I like, I don’t tan.
I burn and then I peel like a lobster and then I burn and then I peel and that’s it. I can tan, but it requires an immense amount of time and patience. Yeah.
You gotta like, I’ve gotta literally spend a progressively larger amount of time, jerk off laying flat in the sun for, you know, 30 minutes and then run back indoors. I remember that about you from North Carolina. You’re awfully pale.
I mean, literally the walls behind him were the same shade as he was, just like he looks tonight. But that’s reason enough to paint that room. I will, I’ll line it up.
Jeff needs a batter. Are we referring to Zester? That’s what I was going to ask, right? I do probably need to like, that would probably help a lot. When I get the lighting and everything going, then we’ll judge.
But we’ll get it all broken out here because I think Mike’s whiter than I am. I saw you too in North Carolina and you are equal. Pretty pale.
You know, I’ve had a little bit of a spray tan or something kind of going on. A little extra spice. Yeah.
Gary Seven, the man with the bad dad bod jokes. The bad dad jokes. That’s Gary, yeah.
Oh, he’s got some epic ones between him and Sabic. Just absolutely awesome. And then they bring out the worst or the best in everybody else with the bad dad jokes and they’re just, I love it.
It is, I enjoy it. Gary has an endless supply of bad dad jokes. Try adding iodine to your diet.
So you don’t burn as much or sunburn. I guess. Yeah, I’d like to lay in the sun.
I just, I’ll just be brusque. That Joe is a highly underappreciated garbage, garbage, garbage heap. Actually, that is a dumpster fire of a TV show, but it is particularly funny and sometimes very clever.
I’m drinking the 51st State’s whiskey. And it’s good stuff. It’s good.
So I got to do a fight with a Canadian this week on Twitter. I did see one of the different comments on the whole idea of us having Canada as the 51st State. Yeah, it is.
We need to look up the population of people that speak French. Yeah, and they can’t be Americans. We can’t have no.
To me, it’s just kind of like a thing in the United States. We’ve given France a hard time for so long. Are we supposed to suddenly turn around and they’re going to remember that we talk a lot of crap.
We talk a lot of crap as a nation. Remember Freedom Fries? Yeah. Right.
Like, we talked a lot of crap about them. They’re probably going to hold that against us. Well, if you’re French, you’ve got to expect people to make fun of you.
Or they’re going to start eating them. They’re just going to dip them in gravy. They’re going to love their Freedom Fries.
I’m finally free of Trudeau. I’m here for the poutine, but I just feel like there’s a lot of people. Probably they’re going to have a bit of a grudge going on.
I’m here for the poutine too. I’m here for the poutine too, but I don’t think we talk about it. Poutine, not poutang.
Oh, sorry. Poutine. Oh.
Thank you. Keep it straight. Now, here is a little, let’s take a temporary detour.
For those of us in the back of the room, what’s the significance of Reno and all this? Dan, Reno is basically, think of it as Treasury West, the facility that processed all the foreign currency payments in the U.S. for the U.S. banking system. Reno, there are many rumors that the Treasury will be moving to the Reno area originally. Now, we’ve heard some that it might move to Texas, et cetera.
So, we’ve heard all kinds of rumors. The decision was based to house the U.S., our banking system’s approach to it, to keep it out of D.C. So, some of the very earliest players in this process, the Admiral Bob Killian, a number of others, were based and working, and the groups aggregating currency for groups were based in Reno. That’s, Reno’s a hub of activity.
It’s the location of the Treasury of the New Republic, where the sovereign wealth fund is going to be stored. That’s the short of it. Well, a lot of the other things kind of fit into that idea of decentralizing a lot of the American wealth.
That goes into the Bitcoin Act of 2024, where they talk about decentralizing the different spots where digital currencies are held across the nation. Yeah. Yes.
I had somebody on my show this morning that lost all of her crypto. She’s trying to get ahold of you, Zester. I said, look, Zester will try to help you, but they got in and got your stuff.
There’s not much you can do about it. Try what you can. The big thing is, don’t sign up for any QFS stuff.
Guys, there is no QFS system now. There’s none of that stuff yet. They are suckering people to get your information so they can do exactly that.
I see it, and I get it all the time. People are like, oh, but no, the sites look really cool. Yeah.
They do. A lot of people aren’t aware. It’s very easy to copy-paste, essentially to steal those really cool looking websites and just have the same thing go out there.
The other one is whenever they’re talking about arbitrage or they’re talking about bots that can just make money if you put money in. There’s no QFS accounts. There are no free money bots.
There’s no such thing. If somebody invented a bot that made money all on its own, they ain’t telling you about it. They ain’t telling me about it.
They ain’t telling anybody about it. None of us will ever know that crap exists because the second we do, their bot won’t work anymore. Whenever these nerds do get those things together, keep in mind they’re either trying to steal your money with a fake one, or if they have a real one, they’re already stealing your money.
They don’t need to tell you about it. They’re doing it without you knowing it. Why inform you? A lot of salty Canadians in this chat here today.
I don’t know. There’s some other Canadians. If I were Canadian, I would not want to be a 51st.
I don’t want to be Canada. I want to fix the problem and be my own country. The 51st state will be named Canada.
You can’t do anything about it. Without our $238 billion a year, you wouldn’t even exist. What are you going to do in a war against us? We would never go to war.
We would have to go and free Canada like we did the French. We would have to go free Canada from Russia and China. You would become part of Russia and China so quickly your head would be spinning if it weren’t for the US.
It’s the truth. You may not like it. You may hate it.
You may go, God, you’re an asshole for telling me the truth. But I told you the truth. Just like Hawaii, you want your state.
You want to be independent? You guys will last a couple of weeks. What are you going to do? Take Shatner back? Is that what you’re going to do? It’s not me talking crap about you. It’s me giving you a reality check.
You know, just go along to get along. Shatner is ours. Canada’s economy is pretty much reliant upon the United States, as is Mexico’s economy.
But in the same way, America’s economy is also dependent, not reliant. But dependent, at least in the short term. And Canada could achieve the point where that wouldn’t happen.
It’s just a matter of a change in leadership. And I don’t really think that Trump is trying to take over. I personally, if I were playing a strategy game or thinking about this in a logical way, it would make infinitely more sense for Canada, Australia, the United Kingdom, New Zealand, and essentially every other British colony to absorb into the same nation.
It would make far more sense. We would logically be capable of doing infinitely better for our citizens on account of it. We would effectively never have to worry about war again.
War would be something genuinely of the past. It would make far more sense. They’re going to get all these eastern provinces of Ukraine, and they’re going to get the Baltics.
All I can tell you is, everything they said about those eastern provinces, that’s – the Russians, when they invaded, they went exactly that far, and they stopped there for the last three or four years. That’s exactly it. And the sovereign wealth fund is right out of the Nassau.
So I don’t know what to say about it. I would like to point out, what a great job you guys, the Mahads, are doing over on RumbleBlue. We had some of the TDS group up in there.
On RumbleBlue. We love them. No, no, no, no.
I would love them to stay, in all honesty. And we appreciate the free rent in your heads. We absolutely appreciate the fact that you folks suffering from TDS give Donald Trump and the folks that supported Making America Great Again and putting it first, and your own countries.
We appreciate the free place to stay whenever we would like to be there. Thank you for the free rent in your head. Back to the regularly scheduled program.
Erin says she didn’t try Putin until she went to Portland. What was her name, and where did you find her? Oh, Putin. Your friend, Petey, thank you.
I like teasing Sharon. Binks, all I can say is they are involved in a group. I cannot give you any more than that without getting them and me in trouble.
Where’s Jen tonight? No Jen? Yeah, what is up with that? Jen got smart and hid from us. Jen’s getting tired. Jen’s getting burned out.
Lorenda just said this Canadian happens to love your constitution. Well, I would like to point out, Lorenda, that overwhelmingly every Canadian I’ve ever met, world-class individuals and people. I live in Canada.
That always surprised me, like the whole way they did that in Canada. I live in Canada. A constitution, a basic bill of rights.
I mean you got your own, what do they call it, their charter or something? Charter of rights or something like that, yeah. Yeah, but it does not carry nearly the weight. It doesn’t have the same level of protections.
In other words, your rights or privileges, whenever your government decides to let you have them or not, they’re not God-given. Yeah, well, I wish we loved our constitution more than we do. Looks like we’re starting to love it again, but I wish we loved it more.
I don’t think I’ve ever met anyone that, from the Western nations, spoke English that wasn’t happy to see me, besides the Brits. Yeah. I think that’s literally the only person I’ve ever met that wasn’t like, oh, another.
They were the only ones that were like, oh, another American. Are we going to have another conversation about where you’re supposed to find a hamburger? You know, I lived in Canada for three years. I lived in the Toronto area for three years.
I did. I lived there. It was interesting.
Chelsea Clinton took home a cool $84 million from USAID. Throw her in prison. Oh, yeah, and Obama’s mother, CIA asset.
What do you think Obama did? Took money and was paid as an international development from USAID. Oh, wait a minute. Breaking news.
Jeffrey Epstein was being paid by USAID as a director. Are you ready to see what? Through the Kaiser Foundation. So USAID was funding Kaiser.
Kaiser used the money to pay Jeffrey Epstein as a director. This is just tax year 2023. Supposedly it goes on a few more years.
So USAID, I mean, he’d already been, guys, 2023. Stop, drop, think. When did he first get locked up? No, no, no, the second time.
Let’s not even go to the first time. So they were paying him after he was already a convicted pedophile. Welcome to your USAID.
That’s awesome. Or at least that is what the data is showing right now. You got it.
They’re still innocent until proven guilty. I just want to point that out. I don’t want to slander.
But, yeah, there you go. I just posted that the Epstein files, when they’re released, one of the things it’s going to show is that he was being financed by CIA. CIA, USAID is a front organization for CIA.
I just got proven right. He was actually being paid by two, according to a lot of documentation from around the world. He was also being paid by Mossad.
I read a whole breakdown. It was based on freedom of information. Now, when I say that, guys, my memory could be a little faulty.
Rarely is, but it could be. Not at the age of 56. Right, J.R. Parks? I like that you can’t even make this up.
My brother, you can’t make this up. No, you really can’t. It’s insanity.
I feel like one of the craziest parts is that it’s all stuff we knew, but we just needed them to tell us. We just needed them to admit it. Yeah, I think it’s like a healing step.
I would imagine that if we were sitting down with a therapist, they would suggest that we tell somebody, that this would be like, hey, you need to tell me all the lies that you told me over the years so that we can move forward. It almost seems that way. It’s just a healing deal that we need, even though it’s going to suck to actually hear it out loud.
They’re now claiming it was a different Jeffrey Epstein. I’m going to need to see the tax documents. Yeah, sure it was.
Gazalago. Gazalago. Yes, Chrissy, you absolutely have 30 days.
Don’t worry. Stop. Don’t worry.
Yes, Sasha, I love this one. If all these people have doubles, where’s mine to work eight hours? I’m still looking for my clone too, Sasha. Where’s Dr. Sarah tonight? I wanted to tease her a little bit.
She’ll be here. Jubilee, I invite Phil McConnell to a whiskey night. I think it could get awfully salty if we invited Phil, but Phil, if you’re out there, I hope you’re doing well.
Oh, wait a minute. Now, I know this one, guys. I know that this is a controversial subject or person, but Flynn shared the extreme dollar amount that the Lutheran Church received.
Oh, wait. Aren’t we supposed to have separation of church and state? Yeah, no wonder they’re so libtard, the Lutherans. No wonder they had the very interesting services and stuff.
Yeah, and all those lesbian fathers, priests. Yeah, I don’t care. For me, those things are between you and God.
Your clone is likely in Vegas blowing your bank balances. That’s exactly where my clone has been. Spending my children’s inheritance.
Don’t blame me, it was the clone. I will go look for him. I’ll go look for him.
Where would I find him? Crazy Horse 3. He probably likes the Bellagio. Texas team roper. Zelensky just admitted that 58% of the money was missing.
They can’t account for it. We knew that early on. So aid to Ukraine is being stopped, or no further aid until there’s a full audit of all the aid we’ve already given.
Which, yeah. There is a collective… going on in D.C. right now. Oh, wait a minute.
All those people, all those congressmen and senators, they got kickbacks? They are… Oh, it is awesome. Are you talking about Eric Swalwell there? Is that who you’re talking about? And for those wondering, too, I bet AOT is loaded. Let’s actually look that one up.
AOT is net worth. Yeah, she says she doesn’t have any money. I’m like, okay, well after this, I’ll bring you out here and I’ll make you rich, sweetie.
Come on out. Hang out with Uncle Mike. Oh, no.
See, what I thought was even funnier is that according to opensecrets.org, a left-wing website, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is worth negative $8,499. You know what the solution to that is? You know what the solution to that is? Sugar Daddy Mike. Well, either that or OnlyFans.
And you’re still getting paid by Mike. Yeah, I was thinking, yeah, exactly. I was like, yeah, there’s no difference in this methodology.
It’s the same exact plan. You need to get on that website that starts with Only. I don’t want anybody to get injured.
I don’t. I mean, you guys know my opinion of McConnell. I think he is one of the slimmiest human beings in the history of the world and absolutely ineffectual senator, leader, and probably one of the scuzziest politicians in U.S. history.
So, yeah, I’m not a fan at all in any way, but I don’t want him physically hurt. Too feeble and senile. He is too.
I mean, the lockups, how many times when he was supposed to be leading the Senate, I mean, he screwed every job he has been given, he has screwed up in the last 10 years. Epically. Yeah.
But I don’t want him hurt. Now, here is the big question. He is supposed to face being nicknamed our planet Gilligan’s Island yet.
What do you think, Mike? I’m sorry, I was busy tweeting to AOC that she needed to get on OnlyFans. Do you support space teams nicknamed our planet Gilligan’s Island yet? What is our nickname? Probably the Upside Down World. Yeah.
Hmm. I’ve always thought of McConnell as Franklin. As what? Franklin.
Isn’t that the name of the turtle from the cartoon? Oh, yeah, Yertle the Turtle. No, I was thinking of like the kid’s show where there’s like a turtle that helped to teach you how to read. Maybe I’m losing my mind, but I could have sworn there was some TV show somewhere around when I would have been at the age of watching said shows where there was a turtle named Franklin and he taught you how to read.
Maybe I’m losing it. Never take dating advice from a bachelor, Mark. Really? If you’re married, take your advice from somebody who has failed miserably because they know what not to do.
Also, if you’re married, you don’t date anyway, so why would you need dating advice? Everybody who’s going to give you dating advice is going to be single. I’m still planning on starting my OnlyFans page. Seeing all the comments, I’m totally, I’m going for it.
I’m going to start it. Yeah, I don’t know when we’re going to find out if we get a press pass. I’m betting they’re looking at the size of the audience and then doing all their checks.
Fortunately, they’ve already done because of appearances, they’ve already done all their checks on me and I passed them. I mean, I know that’s going to ruin Skelflo and many others’ day out there, but I passed them. Um… I’ve had a security clearance before.
I took a lie detector test. They should know everything they want to know about me. I’d be glad to take one of those.
It’s not fun. Let me tell you. Eagle Claw.
I’m from Kentucky. McConnell has always been bad. Yeah, that kind of fits my take, so I’m glad I wasn’t wrong, Eagle Claw.
Thank you for the confirmation. Alright, Gary7. Dating advice.
My friend needs help. After a long time, he told his hot co-worker how he felt. Turns out she felt the same way, so he turned on the air conditioning.
You suck, man. You just suck. I love it.
You suck. Yeah, it was Franklin the Turtle. My kids are your age and watched.
Franklin the Turtle. Big turtle. Oh yeah, I know.
Well, Kathy, resumes can be sent to the original markz at gmail dot com. I would appreciate a detailed one, their thoughts, opinions on the world, and a photo or two would not go amiss. Just so he knows it’s her if he shows up for a blind date or anything or something.
I mean, you want to be certain in today’s world, and we would appreciate it not to be a catfish picture. And did she yes or no suggest the jab to anybody? This is going to be an important one. I would say that’s something where I think a lot of folks have kind of changed their tune on.
That’s one of the most surprising moves. The amount of folks that were extremely pro-jab for so long, it seems to have just happened. Sometime over the past couple of months, I’m not certain whether it was a slow transition, a one-day thing, but is anyone else seeing that in the folks that they talk to? Everybody is suddenly opposed.
I unfortunately have a friend who has refused to talk to me for the last couple of years because I supported Trump. A female friend. Known the family for many, many years.
And it’s safe. I can give you a first name. My name is Michelle.
Michelle has now going through all kinds of procedures. She told me how wrong I was about everything jab-related, and it didn’t matter how much peer-reviewed studies I sent her, how much science I sent her. This was up until about two days ago.
She now has turbo-cancer and heart issues. And let me guess, she won’t take ivermectin She still thinks Trump’s evil, but she now says I may have been right on that part. I know, to me, it’s sad.
This is one thing where I do not want to be right. All I can say is follow the studies. And there’s a reason we had safety protocols in the back.
It’s the reason why we did testing. Years of testing. And we tested animals first, not people first.
Jan Halper-Hayes is going to be at the Quantum Summit. I saw her name in the chat. Karen, she’s going to be at the Quantum Summit.
Jan Halper-Hayes. Jan Halper-Hayes will be there and we will take every time we get together, we get a picture for ourselves with Jan in my lap. She is so sweet.
We have so much fun together. She’s become such a good friend. I know that she’s also helped me with a lot of things.
Texting back and forth and communicating. She is a brilliant mind. She’s a bit out there, but in a great way, guys.
She has so much personality. It’s just fun. She’s not out there.
You can’t be as intelligent as she is and not be somewhat eccentric. I think that’s the word. A little eccentric.
She is awesome, folks. To get to talk to her, hang out with her, be around her in real life, at events, not around events, all of those things. She’s awesome.
That’s a neat lady. Where are the cats? Actually, during my earlier one, Tina would not leave me alone on the Crazy Kryptonite channel. It was insanity.
I’ll have to go see what they’re up to. I imagine I’ve got three cats all passed out on the couch. That checks out.
They were too busy harassing you earlier. I’ll go wake them up, though. It’s better for me if I do wake them up and bring them in because it means they won’t be quite as energetic come 3-4 a.m. I want you guys’ opinion on these, on this one.
I’m trying to remember the name of the chain. A major chain just announced and has posted that they are changing a pet policy. They will absolutely allow you to bring a service dog, but they no longer are going to allow you to bring your comfort animal.
There’s two different headings. One is a… What’s the word we’re looking for here? Some kind of for comfort, security… Yeah, yeah. There’s a separation between a comfort animal or a… Emotional support animal.
Emotional support. There you go. So, emotional support animal no longer… It’s a grocery store chain.
And they’re like, sanitation matters. We understand if you’re blind, you need your dog to lead, something like that. But they’re saying don’t bring in your emotional support ones.
If they’re licensed and registered as a service animal, you can’t do it without them. No way to do it without them, then sure. And properly trained.
SafeWays done it. There’s some other ones that have done it, so I’m just curious what you guys think. I mean, from a sanitation point, I can tell you as a person who’s been in the restaurant business, pretty awkward when somebody brings their animal in and they poop or whatever on the floor because they’re not properly trained.
So, I’m just kind of wondering what you guys think. About… Yeah, they’re moving to do that with their emotional support animals not being allowed in anymore. Some of these people legitimately need them.
No, some do, but for me, there needs to be something in between. A lot of people get it now just so they can fly with them. I think yeah, I think a dog or a cat you could make a case for, but your emotional support peacock is a little bit over the top.
Right, so that’s… If that makes someone capable of going through, yeah. It is. It’s kind of gotten silly, but at the same point, it is real.
So, it’s so difficult to figure out who is legit and who is not. That’s exactly where I was going with the conversation when I started because a lot of people use it as their excuse. They don’t really need it, whatever.
They like their pet, and I get it. I love my pet too. But all the people that took advantage of it, abused it, ruined it for all those that really need it.
Yeah. I guess that’s my take. So, I just wanted to get you all’s thoughts.
No, I agree with that. It’s gotten ridiculous. No, it got to the point where you couldn’t go to a restaurant without there being like 30 dogs, and you’re trying to eat.
I mean, I love dogs. I play with them, but… I don’t want them in my steak. See, you can’t believe the BS I’ve seen with a fake service animal scam on the airplane.
No, I totally get it. I mean, I did. I flew with Penny, though.
Oh, yes, you’re a sweet girl. I know. I woke you up.
We didn’t say that Penny was a support animal. We checked Penny in and went through an insane amount of preparation and paperwork in order to be able to do it. Now, I think that the bigger problem here is not, honestly, the service animal thing.
It’s the fact that you can’t just bring your pet with you without having to have classifications on certain things. And then private establishments would be able to create their own rules is really what it should come down to. I mean, because it’s the same idea.
I mean, what is the next thing going to be? If people are allowed to make anything up, what if I only eat peanut butter? So I have to bring peanut butter into every restaurant. Folks are allergic to peanut butter. What are we supposed to do? I completely agree with it, because I know how comforting and how important animals can be for some.
It’s difficult to figure out that in-between. And that’s the problem. Just like this, when my dog’s at her dog takes Prozac because he has separation, so he’s licensed to stay with.
There are certain times where it kind of makes sense. Well, I had this… There’s other times where it makes no sense. Leave it at home.
I knew this girl once a few years ago. She brought her Pomeranian with her everywhere because he was trained to know when she was about to have a seizure. She had seizures.
She had epileptic fits. Oh no, that is crazy. Yeah, he would smell the difference in her body chemistry and start barking and so she would go get help.
I am blessed. It wasn’t vultures. The Middle Eastern people are huge into falconry, which to me is totally acceptable.
I know if I’m going to fly in a jet or whatever, I want to take my falcon. I mean, it’s either that or I’m getting a ocelot. There was an emotional support peacock on a plane.
A guy did bring a peacock on an airplane. It really happens. And if you go to anywhere else besides the United States and certain other areas, go fly in Africa.
I can personally attest to the fact that people will be carrying animals on a plane with them. Like a goat, a chicken, a guinea fowl, whatever. We did a puddle jumper in Africa at some point.
I forget. It was either on the way or the way back or something, Jessica. It was on the way there.
And they had animals flying with farm animals on the jet. I just remember there being animals on the plane. And that was enough to ingrain it in my mind until the end of all time.
That holy crap. I know there was a chicken on the plane. There was a chicken on the plane.
Why would you bring a chicken on a plane? What are you going to do? Cook it when you get to your destination? It’s to-go food. That was the original food to-go. That’s McDonald’s and Chick-fil-A in the past.
It’s crazy. It makes sense. But if you can afford a plane ticket, why are you bringing lunch to-go? Wouldn’t a sandwich be easier? Yeah, couldn’t we have considered some beef jerky maybe? I don’t know.
Yeah, for me, if you’re capable, toughen up a little bit, guys. This is nuts. And I love my animals.
I love my animals. But I do not buy some of what I see out there. Oh, now this is just wrong.
That’s just wrong. I love how everyone took that clip from Trump and made it into a- completely turned it around. They’re eating the dogs.
They’re eating the cats. Matt, I feel picked upon right now because this is my support cat over here. Yes, girl.
We still love you. I know. You feel like picked upon.
Alright, anyways. Hey, Matt, are you joining us for story time? Do we get story time with Matt or are you skipping this week? I can hear Matt already going, you know, I don’t know. Yeah, now we’re just waiting to find out.
I did send you an email with the link, just in case, Matt. Hey, we get you too. No pressure.
Next week is going to be important because it will be dating advice before Valentine’s Day, guys. So it’s going to be an important episode to watch this week. Get all your tips.
Alfredo, I would be curious. Flying back from Dominican. What would it have been like in the 70s? Were animals, service, of course, they were smoking on the plane, but I would be curious as to what that flight was like just because of the day and time.
Dating advice has not happened yet. The only advice he has given so far is don’t do it. Ah, with the chicken on the plane, I feel better, Alfredo.
I feel better. There’s the answer. What are you going for, Tina? We have an important question.
Where are we at, guys? We’re nine days away from Valentine’s. Mike, do you have a date? Tina’s looking for one. If you’re interested, Mike.
Tina’s offered to move to Las Vegas just to be with you. I would take Tina out. We’ll bring Tina.
My Miss Fluffy Muffy might get a little jealous if I do that. They’ll work it out. Guys, Valentine’s Day is the best day to be a single guy.
Watch out. You got a support squirrel. Watch out.
You better not live in New York. We know what happens. We know what happens.
Rest in peace, Peanut. Guys, we must cheers to Peanut. Cheers to Peanut.
Peanut. Flying used to be much more, yeah, I know it was way better to fly prior to 9-11. As a pilot, can I tell you how many times I got put in the cockpit with the pilots? It was considered common courtesy when you got on an airliner before 9-11 to let the staff know you were a pilot.
And then they’d bring you into the cockpit? Yeah. Bring you to the cockpit, say hello, you know, talk about flying, memories. What do you think about the two accidents last week, Mark? We didn’t really talk about that.
Um, I think I don’t really care. Okay. They don’t add up.
I have a hard time believing that you could not see out the window of the chopper and see the gigantic airplane with the enormous landing lights coming right at you. I find it hard to believe that. Yeah, I mean, to me it’s kind of surprising because I just, you know, the matter of fact it was August of the year, but August and 9-11 was September.
Surprisingly enough on 9-11. So, flying in August that year, I’d flown a couple of places and one of them was to Alaska with Zestor, but right before that I had been in Europe. I’d flown from Sweden to Italy.
Or was it Amsterdam? It was to Amsterdam. So, I flew from Sweden from Gothenburg airport to, and not only did they invite me in, but the pilot had trained with the U.S. military, the older pilot. The co-pilot was a young guy.
Um, and the older pilot was like, we started talking and he was trying to explain to the young pilot that the young pilot knew nothing about flying. He had done one of the fast track courses. The only hours he had in the small plane were the necessary ones just so he could start flying for an airline.
Um, and the captain in charge was, he had his, I mean his hobby was gliders in small planes. He was trying to explain to him, he’s like, hey no, it’s not backwards. If you fly small planes you can fly a big plane.
People who fly big planes can’t necessarily fly small planes. He was trying to explain it to him. So, his way to prove it was putting me in the right seat and having me taxi and take off and go to altitude.
Because I had, at that time I had zero experience and it was when the 737 was first out. No problem at all. Of course, you don’t know what all the extra buttons are or how to contact traffic control, but um his point was, even then, which would have been around 2000, all they did was program it in.
The young pilot would roll out to the end of the runway right at the hold tight spot. They would put in all the details, line it up, hit the button and the autopilot did it all. He was like, you don’t know how to fly.
The computer knows how to fly, you don’t know how to fly. I thought it was interesting. Of course when you have those, you can get hacked too.
Then it can go really south. Or really in a straight line at a high altitude. That’s actually, they’re already pre-programmed to do what they’re doing.
Those are far simpler systems. It’s a lot harder to mess with them. Just because they’ve already been taught exactly.
They’re not picking up new data. Nothing like that. The worst thing that can happen to them is if someone hacked one of their sensors.
That would probably throw them completely off. If they were on that autopilot situation and then suddenly it said there’s no wind but there’s 80 mile per hour gusts. That would make that kind of difference.
I’m going to get myself in trouble. Is the earth flat? No. And as a pilot that’s been at altitude, no.
When you get higher up, you see it. When you are lower, the higher the altitude, the more curve. You have to be above 35,000 feet to see anything.
You’re not even going to really notice it until 30-35,000 feet. Dr. Sarah is here so I can pick on her. It’s controversial.
I know a lot of people are going to scream at me and disagree with me. Maybe it was the curved windshield. You can roll out a million different things.
I am very much convinced it’s round. It’s amazing how the curved windshield doesn’t curve the horizon until you get to the right altitude. It’s not curved until you get to a certain altitude.
Then suddenly the windshield has that effect. It’s crazy. I flew the 737 simulator at Boeing once.
My sister’s boyfriend was a pilot for Boeing, delivery pilot and training pilot. He snuck me into the simulator. I got to spend two or three hours flying a 737.
It was really cool. By the way, without his help at all, just sort of his advice but not really his help, I flew it right through the biggest building in downtown Seattle. So, 9-11 could be done.
Have you ever watched Ender’s Game? Ender’s what? No. The movie, Ender’s Game. Oh, Ender’s Game, yeah.
Oh yeah, I’m sorry. Ender’s Game. Yeah, it just immediately made me think of that one where he thinks he’s just playing another simulation.
But yes, to those asking about the hair, it’s insanity. It’s insane. I’m like in the mornings because in the mornings, Penny likes to rub on me before the podcast.
I guess she knows it’s getting close. She’s a creature of habit. She gets right in my face and she just puts her little forehead right there and she just wants to nuzzle my face for some reason a few minutes before the podcast starts.
She knows, she sees me moving microphones and hitting the light, whatever. The moment I do, she is like, boom, right in my face for that last minute loving and now I’ve got this fine cat hair all over my face and I’m going live going like this. I assume everybody just thinks, oh my god, man, he’s been hitting some of that Colombian Bam Bam or something.
Because I’m like this the whole time because I got cat hair all over my nose. I would say though, if everybody wants to get into the real conspiracy of the globe and the math, because there is a real and I think Mike backed me up on this one. It’s the perspective of the world globe that is insanely off.
The northern and southern hemispheres are not accurate on any map that you have regularly seen or any globe. The size of the land masses. It’s a Mercator projection.
It’s a Mercator projection so it has to flatten everything out. It doesn’t work on a globe. Greenland would be a great example.
Greenland on a map, anytime you look at it on a circular globe, it’s not an accurate size. It’s not actually the size that it is. By the way, the earth is not round, it is spherical.
Just to be clear, it’s not round. We’re going to go with round-ish. Oh no, spherical because if you say round-ish, that’s actually one of the flat-earther arguments.
Oh my god, is it? Literally, if you say that it’s round, it’s a flat-earther argument. Because you’re saying that it’s round like a 2D circle is round. Like a pizza.
And so that’s actually literally an argument. Now this, Gary said, have you heard the hollow earth theory? This one I actually give a little bit of credence to. Brooks Agnew is an expert on that.
Dr. Brooks? Let’s get Dr. Brooks on here with us on a Whiskey and Wisdom to talk about hollow earth. I do believe there are deep underground things going on. Whether it’s hollow, no.
I’m not on board with hollow. The moon though? The moon maybe. The moon maybe.
It makes more sense than if the rules that we understand about physics and things currently work out. And we could be wrong. Easily.
And I mean we as in the entire human civilization could be potentially wrong on the science of these things. But the moon actually adds up that it could technically be somewhat hollow. The earth could have far more going on underneath it than we know.
And that part I do believe is real. I believe there’s got to be stuff going on underground. How else has the earth survived so many extinction events? It makes sense.
It kind of does. And we have proof in the form of the underground cities in Anatolia which to me and that we modern day Turkey that are undoubtedly undoubtedly tens of thousands of years old. And they’re interconnected underground cities.
Pretty cool. Matt, the earth is a giant waffle. The question is did Alice at Waffle House make it? Like was she working one two o’clock night and some lady walked in drunk and said you know I want a waffle.
Bam. There’s earth. I kind of found it curious but you guys must not have known Alice actually and she worked at a place called your house not Waffle House but it’s still.
Oh that’s right. That’s right. All right.
Banana wants to know hey Mike is the red streak on the NASA logo a snake tongue? It is a chevron. And this is really interesting. The chevron is you’re going to like this.
The chevron is a symbol that looks like this. It’s the same thing on Star Trek. They have that symbol on the Enterprise thing.
It’s seen on the logos of basically every aerospace company. Now if you watch the film The Da Vinci Code, it talks about how this shape is the womb. This is the womb.
This is the shape. Those people look at The Last Supper. There’s this V shape like that and that’s the womb and the opposite of that is the chevron.
It’s the male symbol is the opposite of it. Ian McKellen talks about that when he’s talking to Tom Hanks in the film. So basically what that symbol means is it’s male.
It’s penis. It means dicks in space. That’s exactly what it means.
I’m kidding. Symbolically that’s what it means. You’re talking to the guy who with his brother’s help figured out the prisoner the other day.
He knows everything about it. I’m looking for proof the Earth is not flat, Mark. I’m going to get it posted so you can show everybody.
Hey Mike, can you hear me? I can hear you, Matt. How are you, buddy? I’m doing great. How are you doing? I’m just fine.
It’s nice. It’s like 75 degrees here. Oh, beautiful.
Hey, I’ve got a question for you because you’re into all the outer space and everything. Has there ever been a picture, a photograph of Earth from outer space? Yes, many. I heard there hasn’t been any.
I heard there’s actually a website out there that I think they’re up to $20 million if somebody could come up with one. That’s not true. No, that’s not true.
There’s been… No, I’ve just heard they’re all computer generated. That’s all. I don’t think that’s true.
We were seeing pictures from back in the 60s before computers could generate them. Oh, okay. We’ve got some really cool footage from… Did anybody watch? There was a show.
They were like hunting gold. There was a… well, shipwrecks. Man, why can’t I remember the name of that one? I really enjoyed at least the first couple of seasons because they were having great success using this astronaut’s data.
Every time he did flyovers and byes in orbit, he would record and take photos and pictures. Oh, I’ve got to find that show. Mark, I just sent you a link of indisputable visual evidence that the Earth is not flat.
Okay. I’ll do that one in a second. Guys, before I forget, I shared some bad information this morning when I was talking about silver and silver busting out and gold going nuts and all those things.
I gave you the wrong address for Josh Sheckman. I just wanted to fix it and get it right. It is jsheckman at milesfranklin.com. jsheckman at milesfranklin.com. I’ve got to correct that tomorrow.
I know it’s whiskey and wisdom. There won’t be as many people on. You guys were talking about service dogs.
Anyways, I dealt with a lot of that in the 90s when I was in the limo business and stuff. I’ve got a great idea. How about service seniors? Instead of sitting home at night, just bring them out with you to run errands.
Instead of parking and everything, you can go to one store and have them run in and get something for you. At the end, they’re hanging around with you instead of watching TV. It would be fun for everybody.
They need that personal interaction. We can get service old people to go around with us. Matt, now that you’re older and you’re starting to fit that bracket, is that why you’re doing it? You need a friend? I just think it would be a great idea.
In different areas, let’s just take a town called Roseville. Mike knows where Roseville is. At the end of the night at about 9 o’clock after you’re done all running your errands at 8 o’clock, just bring all the seniors over to an area and let them play cribbage for a while before you bring them home.
At the same time, you’re sitting there having not too many drinks. You don’t want to go over the DWI limit. Then you drive them home and they run your errands.
To me, the hardest part is finding a parking spot sometimes so you can just drop them off the door, run in and get your stuff. You know what? It’s kind of funny and not even really serious, but I think it would work. It would be better than an Uber.
Uber Eats and all that. I feel like we’re going with that, Matt. It serves two purposes.
Everybody gets to use each other. Matt, next time I’m in Minnesota, I will take you along with me as my service geriatric. Yeah, I’ll do that for sure.
I’ll cruise around better than watching TV. A lot of times, the older person will just fall asleep. If it’s not too cold out, you just stop.
That brings me to a story. Partway through and they fall asleep and then I can put my finger down in my big gulp, get it good and cold and then give them a wet willy to wake them up just for fun. Keep in mind, I’m only writing these things down to do to you.
Just remember that you might want to be careful with any clever ideas you have there, Pops. In my best impersonation of Pam from Archer, well, shit. One night, I was driving home from St. Cloud and it was 4.30 in the morning and I was exhausted.
This gal was getting a ride from St. Cloud down to Highland. My God, I was exhausted. She was sitting in her six passenger and back and she had fell asleep about Rogers heading towards Maple Grove where I live.
I said, oh my God, I’m tired, man. I’ve been going all night giving people rides everywhere. I actually pulled into my driveway and let the car go and it was heated.
I actually had a ride in Highland going to the airport at 8 in the morning. I went in the house and fell asleep for a few hours and came back out and she was still sleeping in the back of the six passenger. I dropped her off.
When I pulled up in front of her place she goes, oh my God, it’s late out. What happened? I said, I don’t know. Just get in the house and go to bed.
Did you want to show them the indisputable visual evidence that the earth is not flat that I sent you? Let me see if I can get it to behave. Hold on, it’s fighting here. Here it goes.
I clicked the wrong button. I’m working on it and this is from, I don’t know how accurate this information is. You have to question the source? Yeah, I’m highly questioning the source already.
It’s a Mike Barra tweet. I’m never going to get that right. Mike Barra tweet.
There it is. Indisputable visual evidence that the earth is not flat. Right there, guys.
There you go. Unfortunately, he’s right. Who can argue? There’s a lot of curvature there.
Remember that flat earth guy you hit on? You should have hit Mike on the same time. That would be a good show. That would be a ball.
Have you ever hit flat earth Dave on, Mike? I had him on once and it was amusing. The insanity was amusing. But, you know, yeah.
I mean, I disagree with him, but I thought I enjoyed the time with him. Well, no, I did too. I corrected him on a whole bunch of things he said that were not correct and he started getting testy with me at the end.
Whoa, Mr. Smart Man. I’m like, dude, look, I was polite to him. I just said, well, it’s actually not right, Dave.
And look, guys, we can still be friends. If you think it’s flat, great. You’re welcome to it.
I think it’s round. I think there’s like two or three gold bars. I think there’s one area in Fort Knox that has a little bit of gold, so they can walk in and say, look, there’s still gold here.
And then the rest of it’s empty. I think it’s shaped like that girl’s booty. Honestly, I think that when it comes to a lot of those things, they’re distractions, just because does that change any of the things that we should be worried about, focused on, etc.? Even the general, because I’ve watched it on Flatter, they still believe that the other things are out there.
They just think they’re other flat things. I mean, in all honesty, does it really matter if the moon is flat and it’s really just half of a circle? Doesn’t matter. So many other things to be worried about.
I’m happy in that regard, to completely not be worried about what the right answer is or not. Ultimately, I’m only going to be worried about the day gravity stops working. That day, I’m going to really start being worried about things.
But it’s a matter of gifts and crafts. Hey, it’s good to see you. Go ahead, Matt.
Well, Michael, know what lake I’m talking about? It was Mille Lacs Lake. I did the test one day, and I took my binoculars and I put my head right down to where it was about nine inches above the water. There was no waves that day, and I could look all the way across that lake, which is I think 30 miles, and I could see exactly the shore on the other side.
So how could that be? Does the lake curve too, or does it, I mean, does it stay flat, or what happens? Well, there will be curvature. There’s been some tests done with lasers and stuff. Some Flat Earth guys, you know, got out there, and they were like, well, we should be able to see the laser through this if it’s flat, and it wasn’t.
They couldn’t see it. So they’ve proven that before. What you have is something called atmospheric refraction, which is that the atmosphere acts like a lens over the horizon, so light actually hits that and curves.
So you are able to see beyond the horizon to a great extent. That’s why, like, when you see a ship go over the horizon, it slowly disappears because it’s actually already passed over the horizon. In fact, the sunset, when the sun sets, when you see the sun go down, it’s actually already set two, three, four minutes before that because light is bent by the atmosphere.
The atmosphere acts like a lens. It’s a good point. If the Earth were flat, the sun would set over the entire Earth at the same time.
That’s right. Mike, I’m going to have to get that explanation to a bunch of, well, they’re older now, but I think they were in first and second grade at the time, and I convinced them that the Earth was flat because of that. Because of that.
Yeah. Oh, my God. You know, and then I used to hand my son and his little buddies out.
Remember the Weekly World News? Oh, yeah, that was classic, yeah. Oh, my God. I’d give them all out papers because they’d have to do paper reports, and I’d say, bring this into school, you know, and they would, and man, oh, man, the teachers would, they wouldn’t get mad, but they’d think, oh, my God, you know.
And because these guys, they actually, I told them, I said, these guys are good at newspapers and regular Star Tribune, you know, so do a report on that. And then they’d say, Dad, my teacher thinks you’re crazy. And I’d say, oh, okay, good.
But anyways, that’s that. I’m glad you straightened out the last deal. Yeah, it’s explainable.
Yeah. And I’m not too worried about it. It’s just fun to talk about, you know.
I’m more interested in talking about service seniors. I think that’ll be just a huge, huge thing. I like that idea.
I had a really funny one, and this one, I guess I was ahead of my time. But back in, it was somewhere around like 2014, 2015, everybody was arguing that, you know, essentially white male racism. It was the beginning of this whole idea of trying to establish that certain people had specific privileges.
And they said that if you’re a white male, you get lower, you’ll get approved for a house more easily. You’ll get a higher credit score, etc. And so I had the idea for an app called Rent a White Guy, where people can rent a white guy for the day to do whatever they need, like appraise their house, or go to the car dealership, or anything because… Run their barbecue.
I was like, hey, I got a solution to all of this misogyny that’s built into the system. All you gotta do is just create the company called Rent a White Guy, and you can just rent a white guy that doesn’t have anything to do that day. He goes with you.
Problem solved. To get privileged? I don’t know whether mine’s more offensive or not than yours, Matt. This is a great idea, man.
You know, seriously, have Rent a Dad, Rent a Mom, Rent a… You know, this is great, man. I foresee… I foresee us… I’ve got some great ideas, but I just know they’re going to be absolutely horrendous. I don’t know how they’re going to be received, but yeah, I mean… I mean, we could.
If you want to look like you’re more open and whatever, we could rent a gay guy, we could rent a trans guy, we could rent a white guy for a black family. Say, hey, I do have a white friend so you could rent somebody that’s black, so you can say, hey, look, I’m not racist. I mean, I see some potential here.
Yeah, absolutely inappropriate. Rent a girlfriend. Rent a girlfriend is big in Vegas.
They already invented that. That’s called prostitution. No, it’s rent a girlfriend.
It’s big in Vegas. It’s really big. Rent a girlfriend.
Alright, look. They say that’s the oldest profession Really? For $1,000 an hour? Alright, I mean, I might make better deals for like more hours, but for $1,000 an hour? To be your token handicap friend to say no, no, no, no, no, I care about handicapped people. I’ll even let you push the wheelchair.
Wow. Wow. Okay.
Okay. You know, I just, I’m serious, so I think it would be cool to get people out of the house instead of sitting around watching TV all night, because I remember as a kid, you know, going by the neighborhood bars and everybody was playing cards, you know, because there was no good TV. And it’s all gone, you know, so it’s too bad.
I think that your idea does. We just need to get people back out and about and back in communities. Down here.
Everybody gets together to play dominoes. And you’ll notice that is a 100 percent generational hobby, but everybody in the younger generation knows it because they play with grandma, they play with grandpa, and everywhere you go. And you’ll see people even right down the road, a matter of fact, right down the road from from Pops Campout, there is a house where every night, there’s a group of anywhere between four to eight or if their friends are around, more sitting outside playing dominoes.
Right behind the little apartment building along the way there, Pops, there’s always every night, every single day. We need that. Which looks like fun.
Guys, we know, we know why Matt has his picture off. He is secretly laying around in a golden moo-moo with his curlers in. We’re not back on the moo-moos again, are we? I’m gonna get, you know, those what do they call that where you make the little things out of gum or whatever? You know, the gum wrappers? I don’t know what that’s called.
You know what I’m talking about. You take the little gum wrappers and then you can make little, I don’t know, like clothing out of them or something. Is this something you guys do in Minnesota? No, but I’m gonna take I don’t even know what I’m saying.
I’m just gonna take those. We’re talking about the little bazooka wrappers that came on the bazooka chewing gum? I don’t know. I used to hang around with these gals when I was younger, man.
They would make stuff out of everything, man. And, man, I swear to God, they made tops out of gum wrappers and stuff. My daughter used to make out of, like, different colored duct tape.
She made me a wallet one time. I mean, I’ve seen some crazy stuff from where everybody was home making silly foamed pocketbooks out of whatever. I mean, heck, there was a time there in the 90s where everybody was making stuff out of beer cans.
I mean, they had, like, little hanging airplanes and biplanes and rocket ships, and you name them out of beer cans and Coke cans and whatever. So, I’m not surprised, man. It’s just not one I’ve seen.
Yeah, for sure. Well, hey, if anybody wants to get a CBD, go to thecbdgurus.com and, you know what? Hit Mike’s name and put in alien and support Mike. Oh, wait a minute.
You put in Mike B and you have to type in the word alien. Of course, I probably misspelled it. Did I spell it right? Is it E-I-N? You put in Alan, I think.
No, I put in… There we go. There you go. I did it.
The I just looked like an L. It did. Welcome to the Mike B’s wholesale page. See? Look, that works.
Thank you for the shameless plug, Matt, and thank you for story time. Sorry, Mark, I didn’t say your name, but you guys gotta understand, Mark’s my partner on this stuff, you know? So, we’re good. Yeah, not really, but kind of.
But not that kind of partner. No, no. My wife is my partner.
But not like a Turkish prison kind of partner, no. But, yeah, I just don’t want Mike to feel bad, left out, or anything there. I kind of do, Matt.
I mean, he gets picked on enough during these things. That’s right. All these mean MILFs on this chat just go after me, just like … You know what? I had a drink tonight.
It was pretty good. It was actually fruit juice and amaretto. It was unbelievable.
It was pretty good stuff. We call those girl drinks, Matt, just if you want to know, but they are good. Yeah, girly drinks.
You just don’t want your friends to see you drinking them, and you never admit to it on air. Girl drinks. You know what? Matt also likes Appletinis, ladies, so … See him in a bar, buy him an Appletini.
Oh, wait a minute. Appletini, a chocolate martini, any of those? I like those things, too. I like frozen drinks.
I just don’t want people to see me, like, out having them. You know what, though? In all seriousness, pretty soon I’m going to stop the Boulevard deal of putting it together, you know, every item you buy. Yeah.
So, not that … I’m going to give you a warning, but it’s going to be over one week pretty quick here. Wait, wait, wait. We heard you had a lot of Boulevard, though.
Oh, I do, and it’s getting turned in. Yeah. I’m just telling you, I got to end it pretty quick, so … Anyway, that’s all I can say about that.
I know everybody’s … You know what? You’re a lot of currency people out there wondering what the hell I just said, and I didn’t say nothing. I just said, I’m turning her in, baby. I’m turning her in.
And so … Yeah, it’s pretty exciting. That’s all I’m going to say about it. I don’t want to get my ass in trouble.
Yeah, right. That’s all I’m going to say about that one. Yep.
Anyway. I agree. There’s so many damn currencies out there that are going to make you happy, everybody.
God bless you all. Hi, Picklespec. How are you? I’m sorry.
I’ve been ignoring you all night. You know, here’s a good question. This thing goes, so we get a bigger … I think there should be a reduced, but only on-premise, at the RV parks, we should sell CBD Guru’s products at just above cost.
Not that there’s not much market now, but hey, it should be a reward. Oh, CBD Guru’s, when you’re there, it’s going to be free. Free, everybody.
What are you talking about? Free. Free. At least the first day.
Yeah, we are celebrating in Vegas. You know, we’re going to have sports teams there. We’re going to have women’s hockey.
We’re going to have women’s softball. We’re going to have men’s baseball. What is this, like the Mall of America? Yep, and I already got … You wouldn’t believe the people you got in your audience, Mark.
There’s some unbelievable athletes. We got Kim from Alaska. She’s probably sent you some salmon, too.
I think she has. Oh, man, and halibut. She sent me some halibut.
Wow. Oh, my God. It was so good.
We’re so lucky. Oh, my God. The other thing, though, is she’s a hell of a hockey player, and she’s a coach.
She’s going to be my commissioner of the women’s hockey league. Yep. She’s going to be the general manager of the Pittsburgh Penguins when I buy them, along with the Steelers and the Pirates.
Oh, my God, Mark. I want to make Pittsburgh great again, and then not just in the winter. The Vikings.
I like the Vikings, but they don’t have the atmosphere the Steelers do. I’m into the atmosphere. It was tailgating for at least a mile straight, two blocks wide.
Everybody was nice at the Steelers deal. It was awesome. I’m going there next year again.
Some of the best fans, and I’m looking forward to going when you go, Matt. No, you’re going. You know what? There’s going to be a few people that want to go, and they can go.
Mike can go. Zestra can go. Kukla can go.
I’m going to go. I’m going to get my closest friends to go. I’m going to have… You know what? We’ll even have a drawing for the audience.
We’ll get some people there. Just random people. Who could we get out there to be a random drawing that we fix the deal for? No, I’m just kidding.
Some chicks, Mike. Make sure she wins. No, I’m just kidding.
I wouldn’t do that. I would never do that. Oh, you know something I just found out as I was reading.
Remember when Ben Stiller went to Ukraine? Yeah, USA paid him $4 million to do that. USA did? $4 million? Oh, and he’s going for the good of his heart to help us care. How much? $4 million.
That’s what it took for him to give a shit. Oh, that’s hard. I’m sorry.
My language is atrocious. We should wrap. I’m blaming Jim Beam.
Hey, thanks for having me on, everybody. And I know there was no good story there, but this Zestra, I swear to God, serve as seniors, we can help people. And I mean, seriously, we’ve got to get people out of the house.
We’ve got to get people out of the house to have fun. But anyway, that’s it. All right.
Good night, everybody. Good night, Matt. Have a pleasant tomorrow.
And to the rest, we probably should. Jim makes your mouth loose a little bit. And Jen makes other things loose.
Why is he taking back GTD? You must have misunderstood something. He’s not taking his currency back before DRV. No, that’s not what he was talking about.
Hey, Mike, Jen, she’s a hell of a psychic, right? She is. And I want to tell you, my psychic seven years ago said that, I said, a lot of times they go by seasons and not the years, but she said it’s going to be busting right out of winter when this happens. And I said, okay.
That’s Rita from Minnesota, you guys, and she’s the real deal. Rita from Minnesota. I think she’s retired now.
She’s going to be one of my service seniors. She’d be great. All right, here we go, because it will be post-Super Bowl when we meet again.
Who do you guys pick for the Super Bowl? Matt, who are you picking? Who do you like? I hope the Eagles pound them. Because I don’t like Taylor Swift. And they’re going to show her face on there, and I’m sick of it.
Hey, that was a nice name there. Mark Johnson, that was my brother. It’s like your long-lost brother.
All right, Mike. Go ahead. I’ll be rooting for the Eagles, but I do not believe that the NFL will allow the Chiefs to lose.
So they will get every call they need, or just have calls that are just ignored. I mean, do you guys see some of the clips from the last game against the Bills? You got guys in chokeholds, refs staring right at it, no flag. And so it’s not just the calls they do make, it’s the ones they just don’t make.
Don’t make, yeah. The ones they don’t make affect the outcome more than the ones they do make. Yeah, I think the Chiefs are just, they’re going to get every call they need to win, because they want to make Mahomes the GOAT.
That’s the agenda, and it’s agenda sports entertainment. All right, Zester. Or do you even care? I just found out who was in the Super Bowl, just because y’all mentioned their names.
All right, Eagles and the Chiefs. I just found out who was there. I’m going to go with, well, the Eagles, I know the Eagles keep losing, and so I’m going to just go ahead and bet on that process continuing.
So, the Eagles always lose, that means that the Chiefs, yeah, the Chiefs, they’ve got to win then. It’s got to be the Chiefs. I do know Taylor Swift is all team chief, and so that probably… You know what there needs to be is a prop bet at the local casinos here.
Who’s going to be shown more, President Trump or Taylor Swift? Who gets more close-ups? That is something I would bet on, and I’m taking Taylor, by the way. I agree with Mike. I am absolutely 100% cheering and pulling for the Philadelphia Eagles, even though they’re on the wrong side of the state and they’re NFC, but it’s going to be the Kansas City Chiefs winning it.
That’s my take. It will be. Three-time.
Yep, that’s what they’re doing. Three-time. It’s an agenda, guys.
I’m just watching for the commercials. Yeah, the Gurus, we’re going to have our first halftime Super Bowl commercial. What was it? Six million? Yeah, we bought that.
Eagles come back and forth. Let’s hope so. Yeah, so support us.
We got our $6 million commercial on the Super Bowl. Hey, J. Air, what’s the team that told them they weren’t allowed to play and they would be off the team if they knelt? The Pittsburgh Steelers. The only team to make it a team policy.
You kneel, you’re gone. That’s right. The only team in the NFL to say it’s not going to happen here.
Anyways, my two cents. Thank you all, Mods. Thank you for sticking around late.
Canadians, I want you to stay your own country. I don’t. They can’t be.
$238 billion. See you guys before y’all get more trouble.
