00:48.955 --> 00:51.777
[SPEAKER_11]: So they see eye to eye on a lot of Maine issues.
00:52.058 --> 00:55.801

01:02.147 --> 01:03.428
[SPEAKER_11]: He's a wicked pizza.
01:04.209 --> 01:07.652
[SPEAKER_11]: I can't even try to do a Maine accent when what you're about to hear is so great.
01:07.632 --> 01:11.278

01:31.051 --> 01:32.654
[SPEAKER_09]: We're doing great, Bob Marley.
01:33.015 --> 01:42.212
[SPEAKER_04]: I am held up in a bunker up here in Maine, and I'm waiting for Armageddon, the windstorm, of which nothing is happening right now.
01:42.513 --> 02:06.917
[SPEAKER_04]: Oh, so you're not getting anything are you it now you were born in Portland, man, are you in southern Maine or are you in any other part of that massive yeah, I mean, I was actually born in Bangor, but I'm in Portland now, but yeah, so we're not we haven't got slammed with it yet, but they're full force up here, you know, we have that huge windstorm in October, which was that that one came out of nowhere.
02:07.353 --> 02:08.795
[SPEAKER_04]: And we all took it for granted.
02:08.895 --> 02:13.020
[SPEAKER_04]: My wife and I were watching the local news guy and he's like, well, he got a gale force.
02:13.040 --> 02:17.305
[SPEAKER_04]: Wed's coming out there and my wife goes, put it back on Shock Tank Bob.
02:17.345 --> 02:19.007
[SPEAKER_09]: This is a shock tank.
02:19.928 --> 02:20.648
[SPEAKER_08]: Shock.
02:20.669 --> 02:22.771
[SPEAKER_08]: Put it on Shock Tank Bob.
02:22.791 --> 02:23.312
[SPEAKER_04]: There we go.
02:23.332 --> 02:24.553
[SPEAKER_04]: We are clocking the morning.
02:24.753 --> 02:26.575
[SPEAKER_04]: A burst tree comes through the living room.
02:26.615 --> 02:29.259
[SPEAKER_04]: I'm like, huh, it seems to be developing for something.
02:29.279 --> 02:29.759
[SPEAKER_04]: That's nothing.
02:31.741 --> 02:35.706
[SPEAKER_04]: So I'm down there in my under way as in a pair of flip-lops and a chainsaw.
02:35.686 --> 02:37.549
[SPEAKER_04]: cutting the tree up.
02:37.569 --> 02:39.372
[SPEAKER_04]: He yelling at me, what, Bob?
02:39.593 --> 02:40.975
[SPEAKER_04]: Bob, it's a what, babe.
02:41.376 --> 02:42.898
[SPEAKER_04]: You need to put some clothes on.
02:43.399 --> 02:44.962
[SPEAKER_04]: I might get worried about my outfit.
02:45.082 --> 02:47.706
[SPEAKER_04]: Is there's a tree in the living room right now?
02:49.409 --> 02:51.012
[SPEAKER_04]: Probably a little more pressing.
02:50.992 --> 03:08.076
[SPEAKER_09]: You're a true manor you know after with the chainsaw in your boxes that listen Bob I got a talk I want to do some main talk because I split my my time in southern Florida and then I'm up in Hancock You produce or told me up in Hancock County dude That's it.
03:08.096 --> 03:08.777
[SPEAKER_04]: Don't like that.
03:08.837 --> 03:11.481
[SPEAKER_04]: You guys don't you don't even know what they're saying
03:11.461 --> 03:14.386
[SPEAKER_06]: All right, we're gonna do it.
03:14.907 --> 03:16.870
[SPEAKER_04]: Bear my personal life's plate.
03:16.890 --> 03:19.655
[SPEAKER_04]: Oh, mirror coming up from someplace else.
03:19.755 --> 03:24.863
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah Here's the deal.
03:25.084 --> 03:26.506
[SPEAKER_09]: All right, let me give you the background.
03:26.586 --> 03:27.107
[SPEAKER_09]: I know
03:27.087 --> 03:55.677
[SPEAKER_09]: Here's the thing Bob Marley, you know Maine, you were born in Maine, Maine's a big part of what you talk about in, and this is my observation, all right, growing up and having summers up there in Hancock County, Hancock Point specifically, now I live in Hancock and growing up there, it was always fascinating, it was kind of quaint, it was kind of cute, there were men that my father would have conversations with, where I literally would not understand what the man was saying.
03:55.657 --> 04:11.217
[SPEAKER_09]: There was a guy that was a guy Tommy Andrews that ran a boat yet, and he would have a conversation and he had this kind of slow-witted sidekick toot that it was Tommy and too.
04:11.718 --> 04:16.264
[SPEAKER_09]: And so he'd be talking to my father, and our yacht was a 17-foot-bossed umbrella.
04:16.304 --> 04:17.906
[SPEAKER_09]: So that's what I grew up on.
04:18.226 --> 04:21.050
[SPEAKER_09]: And this is, I will give you what it sounded like.
04:21.310 --> 04:23.453
[SPEAKER_09]: Tommy would come down and thought to my dad and say,
04:23.433 --> 04:24.795
[SPEAKER_09]: Well, you're great, Bill.
04:24.835 --> 04:26.897
[SPEAKER_09]: I don't want you here, son of two, two.
04:26.917 --> 04:27.518
[SPEAKER_09]: God damn it.
04:27.638 --> 04:28.319
[SPEAKER_09]: Oh, they go there.
04:28.339 --> 04:29.039
[SPEAKER_09]: They're thing like that.
04:29.059 --> 04:32.704
[SPEAKER_09]: And I would be sitting there just with my mouth and getting my father be having a regular conversation with him.
04:33.004 --> 04:33.885
[SPEAKER_09]: And it was quaint.
04:34.285 --> 04:38.570
[SPEAKER_09]: Let me tell you Bob, my impression now, the locals have been in God County.
04:39.011 --> 04:41.774
[SPEAKER_09]: Maine has gotten really pissed off, Bob.
04:41.954 --> 04:43.796
[SPEAKER_09]: It's a pissed off state right now.
04:44.157 --> 04:46.960
[SPEAKER_09]: And I want your take on it because you live there, my friend.
04:46.940 --> 04:58.837
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, I mean, well, listen, when you have a total amount of maybe three weeks of sunshine during the year, there's not a lot to look forward to.
04:59.257 --> 05:00.159
[SPEAKER_04]: No, I know.
05:00.179 --> 05:05.085
[SPEAKER_04]: You know, like we just had minus 24 degrees.
05:05.586 --> 05:10.072
[SPEAKER_04]: Like every morning we woke up for like three weeks in a row, like I know.
05:10.093 --> 05:11.835
[SPEAKER_04]: You wonder why people are disgruntled.
05:11.895 --> 05:14.719
[SPEAKER_04]: Like it shouldn't hurt to go outside as a person.
05:15.104 --> 05:20.950
[SPEAKER_04]: You shouldn't go outside and just be like, I'm not going to make it to the car.
05:21.210 --> 05:21.751
[SPEAKER_04]: I'm not.
05:21.811 --> 05:24.194
[SPEAKER_04]: This is not going to happen.
05:24.494 --> 05:28.378
[SPEAKER_04]: Like the only thing people do in Maine is plot their dismount.
05:28.498 --> 05:35.686
[SPEAKER_04]: Like, when you get older, everyone's like, well, we'll get out of here at some point, when they're being paroled from prison.
05:35.706 --> 05:38.168
[SPEAKER_01]: That's the point.
05:38.188 --> 05:44.335
[SPEAKER_01]: Joyce and I have got something set up, I guess her sisters got a double-wide in Ocawa.
05:44.315 --> 05:56.010
[SPEAKER_01]: That's probably when we'll make our move.
05:56.030 --> 05:58.153
[SPEAKER_01]: Look, you think he's doing stick buzz.
05:58.173 --> 05:59.275
[SPEAKER_10]: He's talking about the weather.
05:59.435 --> 05:59.836
[SPEAKER_10]: It is.
05:59.856 --> 06:01.778
[SPEAKER_10]: It is weather related.
06:01.878 --> 06:02.799
[SPEAKER_10]: I swear to God.
06:03.160 --> 06:05.563
[SPEAKER_04]: I know people bring up these guys in Maine.
06:05.583 --> 06:07.345
[SPEAKER_04]: It's funny because they always do seem to have.
06:07.385 --> 06:10.069
[SPEAKER_04]: They always come in and impacts.
06:10.252 --> 06:18.223
[SPEAKER_04]: It's always like a the smartest guy of the group that does the speaking and then there's always a guy like like the other guy you mentioned.
06:18.243 --> 06:28.257
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, yeah, like he'll say, well, I guess we could bring it around the other side and he goes, yeah, don't, don't just shut up, Kyle, I'll take care of it.
06:28.778 --> 06:37.710
[SPEAKER_04]: You know, it's always a collection of guys you feel like, you know, they would either save a puppy or build a still in the yard like you don't go.
06:38.703 --> 06:42.509
[SPEAKER_04]: you can't and you can't tell you can't identify him.
06:42.769 --> 06:49.259
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, like the wicked nice adult, there's also an undertone of like, yeah, some's going on there, I don't know.
06:50.181 --> 07:00.456
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah, you just, there's that undercurrent of a little bit of a hostility, and you know, I'll tell you something though, and this the way I roll up there, I enjoy my family.
07:00.496 --> 07:01.238
[SPEAKER_09]: Don't get me wrong.
07:01.358 --> 07:02.820
[SPEAKER_09]: I enjoy the summer
07:02.800 --> 07:11.638
[SPEAKER_09]: But I enjoy and always have, maybe the way I was raised, I enjoy the people that live up their year-round more because they get the whole summer thing.
07:11.999 --> 07:22.902
[SPEAKER_09]: And you just can't have a summer community anywhere without that level of elitism that people have, where people are just hanging out up there and it's just like, oh, Biff,
07:22.882 --> 07:29.731
[SPEAKER_09]: Biff, where are we going to bring the picnic on Saturday and you know everybody else is like that oh god damn it, they're just so full of crap.
07:29.751 --> 07:33.055
[SPEAKER_09]: I can't even believe it, you know, and I'm mowing their god damn lawn.
07:33.135 --> 07:36.220
[SPEAKER_09]: I mean, it's the role, it's the way they roll up there.
07:36.240 --> 07:46.493
[SPEAKER_04]: It's you know, main people are kind of like people from England, you know, where they're smiling like going, oh, what a food to see you isn't it, and they have that phone of, you know, it's really not.
07:48.717 --> 07:53.763
[SPEAKER_04]: And they're always called hardy.
07:53.924 --> 07:55.566
[SPEAKER_04]: Main people are always called hardy.
07:55.586 --> 07:58.630
[SPEAKER_04]: All they're hardy manners, which is basically means miserable.
07:58.790 --> 08:08.282
[SPEAKER_04]: You know, like you hear people in Maine, they'll say something like this, so they'll say, it's not that bad up here as long as you can.
08:08.302 --> 08:14.590
[SPEAKER_04]: You know, if you can get through December, January, February, March, April, half a May,
08:15.937 --> 08:19.001
[SPEAKER_04]: You'll be here as he is horrible, really.
08:19.021 --> 08:21.344
[SPEAKER_04]: That's my life now that I think of it's been horrible.
08:22.145 --> 08:27.792
[SPEAKER_09]: You know, I look at families, you know, and you see maybe in a movie, I don't see it in real life.
08:27.872 --> 08:35.041
[SPEAKER_09]: I see these families where there'll be greetings with with hugs and kisses and family members will say.
08:35.141 --> 08:38.025
[SPEAKER_09]: I'm so glad to see you and they're like, how have you been?
08:38.065 --> 08:38.826
[SPEAKER_09]: Hello.
08:38.846 --> 08:41.209
[SPEAKER_09]: That is the polar opposite with my family.
08:41.229 --> 08:43.412
[SPEAKER_09]: There is a, not smiling.
08:43.392 --> 08:58.566
[SPEAKER_09]: my main relatives when I will see them I will I in many cases it's been multi years where six years will pass and I'll see like a cousin and I'm a bobby I'm not exactly you know I'm telling the truth or I'll see a cousin mine and I'll say hello my goal
08:58.546 --> 08:59.208
[SPEAKER_09]: And that's it.
08:59.228 --> 08:59.809
[SPEAKER_09]: Well, thanks.
08:59.869 --> 09:00.210
[SPEAKER_04]: Thanks.
09:00.230 --> 09:02.215
[SPEAKER_09]: I'm so glad I haven't seen you in six years.
09:02.235 --> 09:10.395
[SPEAKER_04]: It's almost staring at you like he's sniffing you out like you might be a part of some kind of Russian dossier.
09:10.816 --> 09:12.400
[SPEAKER_04]: It's just a goal.
09:12.420 --> 09:14.425
[SPEAKER_04]: That's not a whole bunch of warm out with you.
09:14.585 --> 09:15.728
[SPEAKER_04]: Michael, how are you?
09:15.708 --> 09:18.831
[SPEAKER_04]: That's the way to the eyeball.
09:18.851 --> 09:20.493
[SPEAKER_04]: You never know where they're coming from.
09:20.533 --> 09:25.658
[SPEAKER_04]: It's a very, it's a, it's a, it's definitely an interesting place to live.
09:25.698 --> 09:27.941
[SPEAKER_09]: You know, you've been added a long time.
09:27.981 --> 09:31.204
[SPEAKER_09]: You've got to love it if you've been doing it as long as you've been doing it, Bob.
09:31.264 --> 09:31.705
[SPEAKER_04]: I love it.
09:31.745 --> 09:35.909
[SPEAKER_04]: And I'd love to come to DC because it's, I tell the audience all the time.
09:35.989 --> 09:38.171
[SPEAKER_04]: It's a very well organized city.
09:38.211 --> 09:41.715
[SPEAKER_04]: It's all the streets are numbered and lettered.
09:41.695 --> 09:48.769
[SPEAKER_04]: You could, you know, if you like to drink, you can go out and drink and then you find your hotel room.
09:48.789 --> 09:51.013
[SPEAKER_04]: It's like a game of battleship every night.
09:51.033 --> 09:54.540
[SPEAKER_04]: You know, 47, I found it.
09:56.680 --> 09:57.862
[SPEAKER_09]: You've been traveling around.
09:57.882 --> 09:59.545
[SPEAKER_09]: Is there any part of the country?
09:59.685 --> 10:01.508
[SPEAKER_09]: And I know, you know, you're I've seen lots of your stand up.
10:01.528 --> 10:14.170
[SPEAKER_09]: So I mean, it's not just main, but you know, you you identify yourself as a manor and you do a lot of that is there any region because I'm always curious about this outside of New England where your stuff where people track with it.
10:14.190 --> 10:17.355
[SPEAKER_09]: Are there any, because you think in terms of, uh,
10:17.335 --> 10:32.211
[SPEAKER_09]: I guess the Washington D.C. area is a very transient area, and then you talk about that let's say the East Coast of Florida, which is a population of a lot of New Yorkers and people down there, are there regions of the country where you find more of a New England influence?
10:32.231 --> 10:40.200
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, you'll get displaced New Englanders everywhere, and then the places that they don't like, if I go to Florida, I'll just give them a hard time.
10:40.240 --> 10:44.845
[SPEAKER_04]: I'm like, you people have no idea what like real life is like, like, you know.
10:44.909 --> 10:52.861
[SPEAKER_04]: But like, you know, I tell everybody I'm like, because I'm 50 now, but I tell people on states I go, I'm only 18 years old, look at me.
10:52.881 --> 10:57.469
[SPEAKER_04]: This is what it does, I think.
10:57.489 --> 11:01.435
[SPEAKER_04]: I went to Arizona and I went to the, I was in, uh, a temporary Arizona.
11:01.455 --> 11:04.540
[SPEAKER_04]: I went to the mall at noon and it was packed.
11:05.081 --> 11:08.005
[SPEAKER_04]: It was, it was, it's, it's, who does anybody work out here?
11:08.165 --> 11:10.429
[SPEAKER_04]: Who's, what's going on in everybody?
11:10.609 --> 11:13.093
[SPEAKER_04]: I should, all the nails that done and, you know,
11:13.293 --> 11:25.412
[SPEAKER_04]: In New England, like people walk around with like three crack yellow toenails a barely minute through January, I tried to explain to them like what it's like to live up here.
11:25.453 --> 11:32.844
[SPEAKER_04]: Like I have a plow on my truck because not because I'm, you know, I'm just splurging cash.
11:33.485 --> 11:35.629
[SPEAKER_04]: I have a plow on my truck because it's necessary.
11:36.150 --> 11:36.270
[SPEAKER_03]: Right.
11:36.290 --> 11:36.851
[SPEAKER_04]: Right.
11:36.951 --> 11:39.435
[SPEAKER_04]: We had 16 inches like a week and a half ago.

[SPEAKER_09]: Thank you, Bob, Marley.
19:16.137 --> 19:19.421
[SPEAKER_11]: Welcome back to Botmos, the best of the Michael Maris Show.
19:20.182 --> 19:23.386
[SPEAKER_11]: This actually originally aired during a bonus show.
19:23.947 --> 19:28.152
[SPEAKER_11]: So if you're not a bonus subscriber, first off, shame on you.
19:28.172 --> 19:29.614
[SPEAKER_11]: But you've never heard it before.
19:30.055 --> 19:36.823
[SPEAKER_11]: This is a story that has been referred to and told briefly in the past, but this is the full version.
19:37.564 --> 19:42.330
[SPEAKER_11]: And as I said, in the northeastern part of the United States, Mike grew up in
19:42.310 --> 19:45.314
[SPEAKER_11]: Connecticut, and that's where this story takes place.
19:45.774 --> 19:46.696
[SPEAKER_11]: So enjoy it.
19:47.156 --> 19:56.809
[SPEAKER_11]: It involves ice skates and his sister Kathy, but we call it simply the poop parable on the best of the micro marriage show.
19:56.829 --> 20:04.479
[SPEAKER_09]: To start the bonus show, it has been requested that I tell the parable, the fabel of the Pond hockey incident.
20:04.579 --> 20:07.523
[SPEAKER_11]: I think it's more of a parable because it teaches a lesson.
20:07.543 --> 20:10.967
[SPEAKER_11]: Does it not
20:10.947 --> 20:11.788
[SPEAKER_11]: How about this?
20:12.149 --> 20:13.191
[SPEAKER_11]: We've never done this.
20:13.792 --> 20:17.197
[SPEAKER_11]: After we tell the parable, let's all say what we learned from it.
20:17.998 --> 20:18.339
[SPEAKER_09]: Okay.
20:18.359 --> 20:20.683
[SPEAKER_09]: Well, then we'd be open and empty.
20:20.963 --> 20:22.345
[SPEAKER_09]: But that would be the end of the show.
20:22.365 --> 20:23.888
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, this is within the show.
20:24.008 --> 20:24.889
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah, within the show.
20:25.410 --> 20:28.315
[SPEAKER_09]: I believe I am nine or ten years old.
20:28.515 --> 20:28.756
[SPEAKER_09]: Yes.
20:29.417 --> 20:35.807
[SPEAKER_09]: And back in the day, back when before global warming took hold around the world,
20:35.787 --> 20:44.374
[SPEAKER_09]: There were very, very cold winters in Connecticut and the ponds every single year would freeze over and we would love love love.
20:44.394 --> 20:49.189
[SPEAKER_09]: There's nothing we enjoyed more than skating on the ponds each and every day.
20:50.958 --> 20:53.981
[SPEAKER_09]: Yes, with our hands behind our back and tassels in our hair.
20:54.101 --> 20:58.025
[SPEAKER_09]: And the organism, the hardest part was getting me organ out to the pond.
20:58.045 --> 21:05.452
[SPEAKER_09]: And we would love, we would, well, I would go out in the morning at like nine o'clock eight o'clock nine o'clock in the morning.
21:05.952 --> 21:07.634
[SPEAKER_09]: I would skate until sundown.
21:07.714 --> 21:11.377
[SPEAKER_09]: I would skate all day and I would maybe come in for lunch.
21:11.858 --> 21:14.400
[SPEAKER_09]: And by the way, in my day in my neighborhood.
21:14.901 --> 21:18.484
[SPEAKER_09]: And I know a lot of people that will relate to this.
21:18.464 --> 21:20.747
[SPEAKER_09]: called their children to to lunch and supper.
21:20.807 --> 21:23.090
[SPEAKER_09]: That's the way we say, Mike, come to this.
21:23.110 --> 21:23.991
[SPEAKER_09]: That was what we didn't know.
21:24.011 --> 21:26.435
[SPEAKER_09]: Maybe they just lean out the window and bellow.
21:26.455 --> 21:30.620
[SPEAKER_09]: There was no worry of the child being abducted or any of this.
21:30.700 --> 21:35.146
[SPEAKER_09]: It would just be, they just lean out the window and call you and you would be called for dinner.
21:35.206 --> 21:44.218
[SPEAKER_11]: When you talk about the pond, was it an actual geographical pond or was it the kind of thing where you would leave the hose on and flood the backyard and freeze?
21:44.198 --> 22:02.254
[SPEAKER_09]: Next door to my house was a brook a stream that ran and by the way, there's a song called The Hills of My Connecticut Connecticut is filled with hills and so there were lots of rolling hills and ponds and streams and in my particular neighborhood You had one big pond up the hill wood pond.
22:02.314 --> 22:14.205
[SPEAKER_09]: It was called a wood pond road and then that would feed the brook down into a tiny little pond
22:14.185 --> 22:26.696
[SPEAKER_09]: And it would feed the pond in back of the Kelly's house, and then that would go over a little damn that they had and I think it would look that would feed the last pond that was down right behind our house.
22:27.077 --> 22:29.342
[SPEAKER_09]: So there were technically within
22:29.322 --> 22:55.617
[SPEAKER_09]: less than a half a mile there were three ponds that you could skate on but the one that we were skating on that day was right behind Kelly's it was the closest to my house I could walk down the hill and get on the get on the the ice and I could skate all day long and it was not as big a pond as the other one so it's just a couple of us that had a makeshift goal set up and we were slapping the puck around and I would I could do it for hours it was it was by the way it was why many people in my neighborhood were
22:59.528 --> 23:01.310
[SPEAKER_11]: What the f*** are you playing?
23:01.471 --> 23:03.033
[SPEAKER_11]: It's the hills of my Connecticut.
23:03.854 --> 23:04.455
[SPEAKER_11]: You found it?
23:04.795 --> 23:04.935
[SPEAKER_11]: Yes.
23:05.696 --> 23:06.477

[SPEAKER_09]: I think right before my parents Or a late lunch and I went back down to a skate and I'm skating and having so much fun And it's so cold and I'm all bundled up But it doesn't matter cuz I got my hockey gloves on and I got my hockey skates on and I'm really really excited And I think my hockey skates were my dads use skates that I used for years and years and years and it was just and if you'd seen these skates It looks like something out of uh, you know, hunts brinkery
25:07.812 --> 25:11.360
[SPEAKER_05]: I think that's commonplace when you're a kid.
25:11.421 --> 25:16.934
[SPEAKER_11]: You just use what your old brother had or what your pot's had, probably wearing like eight pairs of socks.
25:16.954 --> 25:18.497
[SPEAKER_09]: So they've got eight pairs of socks.
25:18.778 --> 25:18.979
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.
25:19.039 --> 25:20.683
[SPEAKER_09]: And it's just, but it's fun fun.
25:21.264 --> 25:22.547
[SPEAKER_09]: So much fun.
25:23.135 --> 25:31.384
[SPEAKER_09]: that I forgot that nature was was brewing in my large intestine.
25:31.584 --> 25:43.176
[SPEAKER_09]: I didn't realize that as the as the hours rolled away, that suddenly it just hit me like a ton of bricks, especially after a winter time lunch, I guess, of probably it was Saturday.
25:43.517 --> 25:47.561
[SPEAKER_09]: So it was probably like chili or spaghetti sauce or something like that.
25:47.581 --> 25:51.505
[SPEAKER_11]: Oh no, that's until we've been in explosives, we've never gotten that before.
25:51.485 --> 26:06.936
[SPEAKER_09]: By the way, if you ever have the vegan chick pea tuna salad, the artificial that is I call natures explosive If you ever want to really get your system started, you could use that very very innocent Blown if that was a mic Connecticut.
26:07.297 --> 26:12.668
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah, I'm surprised as I'm blow a hole in your stomach It's out that's powerful, but anyway, I digress.
26:12.688 --> 26:13.189
[SPEAKER_09]: Yes
26:13.388 --> 26:26.304
[SPEAKER_09]: the pond was cold, we were cold, and suddenly immediately with no waiting with no hesitation, I felt what I like to refer to as the pain.
26:27.005 --> 26:33.152
[SPEAKER_09]: And the pain was instantaneous, and I said, I better get up the hill, jacks Brett.
26:33.172 --> 26:38.279
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah, I better get up that hill, and I go up the hill, and I leave my skates on.
26:38.439 --> 26:43.345
[SPEAKER_09]: There's no time to even deal with the skates.
26:43.325 --> 26:43.826
[SPEAKER_09]: Right.
26:43.926 --> 26:52.616
[SPEAKER_09]: There's a lot of lacing and I don't want to take the time and we have a runner on what are yield New England hardwood floors.
26:52.756 --> 26:57.422
[SPEAKER_09]: These were not hardwood floors because people wanted fancy hardwood floors.
26:57.522 --> 27:01.347
[SPEAKER_09]: These were hardwood floors because they were the floors that the pilgrims.
27:01.407 --> 27:02.208
[SPEAKER_09]: That's what they built.
27:02.248 --> 27:03.189
[SPEAKER_09]: That's what they built.
27:03.209 --> 27:03.890
[SPEAKER_09]: That's what floors.
27:04.090 --> 27:06.854
[SPEAKER_09]: All the houses in Connecticut in my town.
27:06.874 --> 27:09.837
[SPEAKER_09]: How do you have the pilgrims built them first?
27:10.138 --> 27:12.100
[SPEAKER_09]: How do you know that?
27:12.080 --> 27:14.727
[SPEAKER_09]: Mike, Mike, Mike, how's it going?
27:14.868 --> 27:27.642
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah, it's going to get up there and for whatever reason, God knows what she was up to, but the door, the side door to my little cape that I lived in, was locked.
27:27.622 --> 27:31.666
[SPEAKER_09]: And I banged on the door because I wanted to get it.
27:32.046 --> 27:34.008
[SPEAKER_09]: Kathy, my sister, comes to the door.
27:34.689 --> 27:38.233
[SPEAKER_09]: And I said, Kathy, let me in, please, I've got to use the bathroom.
27:38.253 --> 27:40.074
[SPEAKER_09]: And she says, not with those skates on.
27:40.155 --> 27:41.596
[SPEAKER_09]: I said, you don't understand.
27:41.716 --> 27:42.857
[SPEAKER_09]: I'll walk over the carpet.
27:42.877 --> 27:45.780
[SPEAKER_09]: I'll be gentle, please, not with the skates on.
27:46.100 --> 27:48.463
[SPEAKER_09]: I said, I have an emergency.
27:48.603 --> 27:51.065
[SPEAKER_09]: I have a not with the skates on.
27:51.206 --> 27:52.947
[SPEAKER_09]: And I said, so I'm pleading with her.
27:53.067 --> 27:54.709
[SPEAKER_09]: And this argument, I realized,
27:54.689 --> 28:18.182
[SPEAKER_09]: And every time that passes, yeah, if I had just perhaps sat down on the bench on the little walkway from the garage into our house in our, and am I painting that New England picture of you are a tiny little, although I will jump to your defense because if you are that far into what we call it my household the urgency, yeah, sometimes sifting to a sitting position, you might actually accelerate the process.
28:18.162 --> 28:27.838
[SPEAKER_09]: Well, it's funny you bring that up because finally I realize she is not she's not going to yell I said, but it's cold actually said you can come in and sit on the chair right over here And she points right inside.
28:28.178 --> 28:38.075
[SPEAKER_09]: I would walk through the dining room right then through the kitchen and there's the the bathroom We had one on the main floor one on the upstairs only we have one of the basement We had one bathroom in the basement.
28:38.195 --> 28:42.482
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah, that was very very cold, but later in life That's where I went for a private time
28:42.462 --> 28:44.106
[SPEAKER_09]: And I don't mean bad private time.
28:44.126 --> 28:46.292
[SPEAKER_09]: I mean, that's where if you really had to drop a boost.
28:46.432 --> 28:46.613
[SPEAKER_09]: Oh, okay.
28:46.633 --> 28:50.222
[SPEAKER_09]: That's where you would go not to infringe on anybody else's uh I understand.
28:50.242 --> 28:51.345
[SPEAKER_09]: As a courtesy.
28:52.127 --> 28:58.885
[SPEAKER_09]: So she uh she standing there like a goddamn prison guard standing over me.
28:58.865 --> 29:02.891
[SPEAKER_09]: And I sit down and I'm in one of my parents yield colonial chairs.
29:02.951 --> 29:12.565
[SPEAKER_09]: These, you know, these chairs that if you and I sat on them right now, Rob, they collapse and I beg you, dozens and dozens of thin spindly, like dowel rods that hold together, I know the style you mean.

[SPEAKER_09]: That's it.
29:13.266 --> 29:13.567
[SPEAKER_09]: That's it.

[SPEAKER_09]: Yes, straw, which in the corner is corn.
29:26.506 --> 29:32.338

31:03.397 --> 31:08.367
[SPEAKER_11]: Man, offer a counterpoint on that because you know, everyone has a different take on this story.
31:08.347 --> 31:12.776
[SPEAKER_11]: When you actually soiled yourself, I believe she's very bright lady.
31:12.816 --> 31:15.922
[SPEAKER_11]: We know this started thinking three or four steps ahead.
31:15.982 --> 31:16.603
[SPEAKER_11]: Right.
31:16.623 --> 31:20.571
[SPEAKER_11]: And also started to think, how is a nine year old going to clean himself up?
31:21.072 --> 31:24.298
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, mom and dad are going to come home and say, what happened to Michael?
31:24.719 --> 31:28.466
[SPEAKER_11]: Well, and so unless it's taking care of, she was in charge.
31:28.988 --> 31:30.270
[SPEAKER_09]: She's covering her ass.
31:30.250 --> 31:33.854
[SPEAKER_09]: My memory of it is this and it's, you know, so many, many moons ago.
31:34.134 --> 31:34.995
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah, 50 years ago.
31:35.516 --> 31:38.399
[SPEAKER_09]: But the fact is, there's the fact that you said it again.
31:39.340 --> 31:49.972
[SPEAKER_09]: I remembered being very skillful in the clean-up process because there's nothing that horrified me more at that particular time.
31:50.172 --> 31:53.736
[SPEAKER_09]: There's no, I didn't want any, I didn't want any.
31:53.756 --> 31:54.317
[SPEAKER_09]: Superge.
31:54.297 --> 32:16.901
[SPEAKER_09]: had all what took and I remember delicately balancing everything and being able to get it off without any further mess, but then hand the outside package, which may have gone to the trash or may have gone to the laundry to my sister and because I still had one and a half skates, you know, one skates half on laced and the other skates laced.
32:17.262 --> 32:22.127
[SPEAKER_09]: She, you know, I, no, she took the skates off
32:22.107 --> 32:22.888
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah, it's true.
32:22.989 --> 32:24.592
[SPEAKER_09]: And let she's like, she's there.
32:24.632 --> 32:25.413
[SPEAKER_09]: No, what hold on.
32:25.593 --> 32:26.495
[SPEAKER_09]: That's what she did.
32:26.836 --> 32:29.260
[SPEAKER_09]: She helped me take my skates off.
32:29.280 --> 32:37.555
[SPEAKER_09]: And then she told me to bring the the mess down to the basement where the washer and dryer were and that's that's where I brought my my stuff.
32:38.117 --> 32:43.486
[SPEAKER_11]: That's what and I don't remember what I thought you were naked from the waist down when you brought the stuff down.
32:43.506 --> 32:44.368
[SPEAKER_11]: Duck style.
32:44.348 --> 32:45.430
[SPEAKER_09]: I don't remember.

[SPEAKER_05]: No pants.

[SPEAKER_05]: You have to burn those clothes in my family.
32:53.265 --> 32:54.908
[SPEAKER_05]: It's not going to come back from that.
32:55.248 --> 32:57.052
[SPEAKER_09]: We didn't have a lot of money on spirit.
32:57.072 --> 32:57.613
[SPEAKER_09]: And you know what?
32:57.653 --> 32:58.494
[SPEAKER_09]: That's we didn't end.
32:58.534 --> 33:00.338
[SPEAKER_09]: There's nothing that Todd can't take care of.
33:00.798 --> 33:01.720
[SPEAKER_11]: Well, I was thinking you know what?
33:01.740 --> 33:03.463
[SPEAKER_11]: This was this was a half century ago.
33:03.824 --> 33:05.968
[SPEAKER_11]: I'm thinking you went probably straight to the bleach.
33:06.607 --> 33:09.791
[SPEAKER_09]: I didn't, I don't remember what the process was, but I know it was taking care of.
33:10.072 --> 33:14.638
[SPEAKER_09]: And then I complained, I complained, and I remember that he was the triumph for me.
33:15.059 --> 33:19.365
[SPEAKER_09]: The triumph for me was when my mom said to Kathy, you should have just let him go.
33:20.086 --> 33:23.070
[SPEAKER_09]: You should have just let him go, because I think my mom- Like, let you in.

[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah.
33:29.840 --> 33:30.701

[SPEAKER_11]: So we discuss it and of course because of TMLS we have a little fun with it.
46:08.324 --> 46:10.206
[SPEAKER_11]: Nothing disrespectful.
46:10.707 --> 46:11.428
[SPEAKER_11]: Thank you very much.
46:11.548 --> 46:15.292
[SPEAKER_11]: It's hockey right here on the best of the micromarish show.
46:15.312 --> 46:16.614
[SPEAKER_09]: This is not political.
46:16.754 --> 46:19.277
[SPEAKER_09]: This but this is a current event subject.
46:19.317 --> 46:31.512
[SPEAKER_09]: Okay, I'm watching real sports last night and this message goes out to Gary Bettman, commissioner of the NHL get on board with concussion protocol.
46:31.552 --> 46:33.074
[SPEAKER_09]: You dig.
46:33.094 --> 46:35.817
[SPEAKER_09]: Okay,
46:35.797 --> 46:56.523
[SPEAKER_09]: Oh, that's not okay and this is then these guys it doesn't matter what sport you play these guys are suffering the same injuries This is sport my kid is playing okay, and and I don't want hit I don't want Mrs. Omera to freak out and pull him out of hockey and when you see Some of the collisions that are on the ice in the NHL and you've got those bottles.
46:56.763 --> 47:02.530
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah Your gum is butters right hands by Kurt Brakingberry you can stack these collisions up
47:02.510 --> 47:21.531
[SPEAKER_09]: with any collision in the NFL and they are they're equal to if not worse based on head on head collisions and I have to say this I have to walk the walk and I for years I have never said this but if you need to remove fighting from the uh... what no
47:22.220 --> 47:24.847
[SPEAKER_05]: That is at the heart of the game.
47:24.867 --> 47:26.030
[SPEAKER_09]: No, it's not the heart of the game.
47:26.070 --> 47:27.153
[SPEAKER_09]: Heart of the game is scoring goals.
47:27.213 --> 47:30.482
[SPEAKER_05]: But the no, the fight is the, oh, that is.
47:31.304 --> 47:33.430
[SPEAKER_05]: Well, people, that's why you have an enforcer.
47:33.490 --> 47:34.673
[SPEAKER_05]: You taught me that.
47:34.954 --> 47:38.102
[SPEAKER_09]: I know, but the fact is that it's.
47:38.082 --> 47:40.245
[SPEAKER_09]: brain injury and it is a sport.
47:40.405 --> 47:41.787
[SPEAKER_11]: But they can build equipment.
47:42.788 --> 47:43.289
[SPEAKER_09]: Don't do this.
47:43.349 --> 47:44.170
[SPEAKER_09]: Don't please.
47:44.330 --> 47:44.771
[SPEAKER_09]: Okay.
47:44.791 --> 47:45.432
[SPEAKER_06]: Please.
47:45.452 --> 47:45.872
[SPEAKER_11]: How about this?
47:46.113 --> 47:47.795
[SPEAKER_06]: I'm really being serious.
47:47.895 --> 47:49.617
[SPEAKER_06]: First off, but they can build equipment.
47:49.677 --> 47:50.358
[SPEAKER_06]: Mike, Mike.
47:50.378 --> 47:51.980
[SPEAKER_06]: To let them absorb the blows to that.
47:52.000 --> 47:53.522
[SPEAKER_06]: Well, I mean, you do not remember.
47:53.542 --> 47:54.283
[SPEAKER_06]: They're called helmets.
47:54.343 --> 47:59.871
[SPEAKER_11]: Do you remember at WJFK, we had a helmet, and we took turns putting it on and hitting each other on the head.
48:00.051 --> 48:02.194
[SPEAKER_09]: I mean, it still affects your balance.
48:02.214 --> 48:04.056
[SPEAKER_09]: They're all wearing helmets when they get hit.
48:04.036 --> 48:06.059
[SPEAKER_09]: I have a solution, right?
48:06.159 --> 48:07.601
[SPEAKER_05]: The husband involved calling Carrie?
48:07.741 --> 48:08.142
[SPEAKER_05]: No.
48:08.162 --> 48:08.462
[SPEAKER_05]: Okay.
48:08.603 --> 48:09.384
[SPEAKER_05]: The hockey.
48:09.704 --> 48:11.006
[SPEAKER_05]: The hockey gloves, right?
48:11.166 --> 48:11.527
[SPEAKER_05]: Globs.
48:11.987 --> 48:13.049
[SPEAKER_05]: The gloves.
48:13.069 --> 48:14.010
[SPEAKER_05]: Globs.
48:14.091 --> 48:18.317
[SPEAKER_05]: As soon as the enforcers are about to fight, they give him the cartoon one.
48:18.377 --> 48:21.421
[SPEAKER_05]: Oh, like Bob Hope, that you see a net security event.
48:21.762 --> 48:23.124
[SPEAKER_02]: That's how they fight.
48:23.204 --> 48:24.145
[SPEAKER_05]: Hey, I want to test.
48:24.165 --> 48:24.846
[SPEAKER_05]: On Skates.
48:24.826 --> 48:25.647
[SPEAKER_05]: Like who's here?
48:25.727 --> 48:30.892
[SPEAKER_05]: Sugar Ray Leonard isn't he wild and the weights on the cartoon size gloves It's gonna be a rockers.
48:30.912 --> 48:37.318
[SPEAKER_09]: You think you bring me Oscar You know and Rob along for the sports duck station Same rocker.
48:37.438 --> 48:37.838
[SPEAKER_09]: You can't.
48:37.878 --> 48:38.118
[SPEAKER_09]: Why?
48:38.819 --> 48:39.039
[SPEAKER_09]: What?
48:39.239 --> 48:46.426
[SPEAKER_05]: Okay, I'll break you news Mike break the news A big shout out to listener Witton whose wife was here yesterday visiting.
48:46.867 --> 48:47.807
[SPEAKER_05]: Oh, yeah, hello.
48:48.268 --> 48:48.608
[SPEAKER_05]: Hi.
48:48.828 --> 48:50.510
[SPEAKER_05]: Yes She said where's Mike?
48:50.550 --> 48:51.751
[SPEAKER_05]: I said Michael is in Florida right.
48:51.771 --> 48:52.352
[SPEAKER_05]: It's right on.
48:52.412 --> 48:53.753
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah, I don't know
48:53.733 --> 49:01.845
[SPEAKER_09]: anyway, they've got to be aware of all contact sports that these young men are getting hurt and might be affected.
49:01.865 --> 49:16.367
[SPEAKER_09]: Why is the NHL, you know, I mean, how can you feel like what the it's what the NFL did first, it's how they played it first and they're just behind the curve on this and yeah, they're denied they're in denial about it, but you look at the head can collision.
49:16.387 --> 49:21.394
[SPEAKER_05]: Who's that candy ass from the pens that stayed out forever for a
49:21.374 --> 49:23.217
[SPEAKER_05]: number one people save some for bad now.
49:23.237 --> 49:24.639
[SPEAKER_05]: We're questioning why.
49:25.260 --> 49:26.201
[SPEAKER_05]: I don't think so.
49:26.261 --> 49:26.501
[SPEAKER_05]: Okay.
49:26.521 --> 49:27.162
[SPEAKER_05]: Just check out.
49:27.243 --> 49:30.307
[SPEAKER_05]: But no, I remember when Sidney Crosby made a big deal.
49:30.467 --> 49:32.610
[SPEAKER_05]: And for almost a year, he was out.
49:33.091 --> 49:33.912
[SPEAKER_05]: The whole season.
49:34.032 --> 49:41.323
[SPEAKER_09]: Well, they, the thing about concussion protocol, and I learned this from watching a little of this documentary last night is that.
49:41.303 --> 49:51.114
[SPEAKER_09]: the recovery process is almost as important as you know preventing these injuries if they're going to happen inevitably.
49:51.194 --> 49:53.396
[SPEAKER_09]: Now the fact is, there it is, I said it again.
49:59.063 --> 50:05.590
[SPEAKER_09]: When you get a guy that has a head on head collision or shoulder to head or banks is
50:05.738 --> 50:10.164
[SPEAKER_09]: It's extremely important to take him out of the game and give him the proper amount of recovery time.
50:10.224 --> 50:12.567
[SPEAKER_09]: That's the initial sign of it has to be done right away.
50:12.628 --> 50:12.968
[SPEAKER_09]: Right.
50:13.268 --> 50:15.271
[SPEAKER_09]: That's that it helps the situation.
50:15.872 --> 50:22.301
[SPEAKER_09]: And I just don't want to see based on our diversions that we like like football and hockey any of these sports.
50:22.541 --> 50:30.953
[SPEAKER_09]: If we have the science and we have the knowledge that this is eventually going to make a 40 year old man put a shotgun in his mouth and pull the trigger.
50:30.933 --> 50:56.738
[SPEAKER_09]: I think we have to do well everything we can as human beings and in 2018 we've got God, we got to get our you like the movie because you we're this isn't gladiator man No, I mean I ask you a serious question because you are the one that has been and I am serious about How can you just your entire life you understand the game you understand this part of that But here's I probably got a concussion myself back in high school when I had my head down and I hit probably
50:56.718 --> 51:00.185
[SPEAKER_09]: one of the biggest guys in the Connecticut Valley Conference guy.
51:00.405 --> 51:05.735
[SPEAKER_09]: I remember his last name was Kennedy and he was high school student.
51:05.755 --> 51:10.604
[SPEAKER_09]: He was using him and head down and I went down and you know how you lose your breath that you fall and get your back.
51:10.865 --> 51:12.027
[SPEAKER_09]: I think it was maybe a concussion.
51:12.047 --> 51:17.477
[SPEAKER_09]: I was just I was out for a little bit and then I woke up and these guys it happens multiple times during
51:17.457 --> 51:22.184
[SPEAKER_11]: When you talk about, you know, maybe if we eliminate fighting, that would be a step and it would.
51:22.204 --> 51:23.967
[SPEAKER_09]: Well, that's, but it's just headblows.
51:23.987 --> 51:35.726
[SPEAKER_11]: You're, you're getting blows to the head when you're like boxing, but isn't the game based on, I mean, just the fact that you're on skates and you're on ice and you're fighting for the same little disc, you're gonna, you're going to collide.
51:35.746 --> 51:44.359
[SPEAKER_09]: You're going to, you're going to, you're going to, you're going to, you're going to, you're going to, you're going to, you're going to, you're going to, you're going to, you're going to, you're going to, you're going to, you're going to, you're going to, you're going to, you're going to, you're going to, you're going to, you're going to, you're going to, you
51:44.457 --> 51:51.256
[SPEAKER_11]: As in fuck you Oscar, no, you've done it, you've done it, you've done it every effort to do it.
51:51.918 --> 51:54.144
[SPEAKER_09]: Guys still get concussions right in the NFL.
51:54.405 --> 51:56.531
[SPEAKER_09]: Guys will still get concussions in the NHL.
51:56.832 --> 51:59.479
[SPEAKER_09]: You just re, you eliminate.
51:59.459 --> 52:03.162
[SPEAKER_09]: the chances of this happening is frequently minimized.
52:03.183 --> 52:05.064
[SPEAKER_09]: It's like, yeah, you minimally try to look to that.
52:05.084 --> 52:11.791
[SPEAKER_09]: And also, then you're also, I'm going to do that if the commissioner of the NHL is denying that it ever has technology and science will get us there.
52:12.211 --> 52:12.631
[SPEAKER_05]: I hope so.
52:12.752 --> 52:16.875
[SPEAKER_05]: But if you look at your modern, I think Jermic wire was on for some reason.
52:16.895 --> 52:23.402
[SPEAKER_05]: I thought Tom Cruise had died for a day because every Tom Cruise Christmas movie was on AMC for some reason.
52:23.422 --> 52:25.463
[SPEAKER_09]: I was like, oh my gosh, because he's got a movie coming out.
52:25.483 --> 52:26.785
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, that's all I was, right?
52:27.005 --> 52:29.247
[SPEAKER_05]: Right, that's what you see.
52:29.227 --> 52:46.091
[SPEAKER_05]: The Jerry McGuire glamorizes, essentially that concussion protocol, not the protocol, but the concussion, because at the end of that movie, you have Cuba good in junior sitting there laying down, getting knocked out, and then getting up and dancing, right?
52:46.111 --> 52:46.251
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.
52:46.752 --> 52:57.006
[SPEAKER_05]: And going back into the game, and then getting a multi-million dollar contract,
52:56.986 --> 53:18.049
[SPEAKER_09]: science and knowledge and all of these things change the way we look at our sports and everything else in life and I really, really think that I was stunned that they especially with the big daddy league, the NHL, the NFL, accepting the reality of this traumatic brain injury.
53:18.029 --> 53:23.615
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, but we don't know, you know, well, they're obviously using the same playbook because it took the NFL for ever to do it.
53:23.876 --> 53:31.524
[SPEAKER_11]: They took they made a major motion picture that I still feel that somehow the NFL quashed because we all saw it in a theater, but then it was gone.
53:31.605 --> 53:32.766
[SPEAKER_11]: No, no, no, no one talked about it.
53:32.786 --> 53:33.347
[SPEAKER_05]: They're still looking.
53:33.367 --> 53:34.428
[SPEAKER_05]: Look, they're still an issue.
53:34.448 --> 53:35.469
[SPEAKER_05]: They're still working on it.
53:35.529 --> 53:38.673
[SPEAKER_05]: At least there's a protocol in the NFL.
53:39.013 --> 53:42.076
[SPEAKER_05]: If you watch modern day soccer, Premier League soccer.
53:42.097 --> 53:47.783
[SPEAKER_05]: And I know this is, you know, not, this is the most, this is the South,
53:47.763 --> 53:50.629
[SPEAKER_09]: But if you want some of them, they also have head injury.
53:50.809 --> 53:53.234
[SPEAKER_05]: They have some of the players now wear helmets.
53:53.955 --> 53:58.985
[SPEAKER_09]: Like saw helmets because the heading of the soccer ball has been known to cause it.
53:59.165 --> 54:01.410
[SPEAKER_09]: Or the goal is bumping heads.
54:01.430 --> 54:03.614
[SPEAKER_08]: Yeah, but it's so simple when you think about this.
54:04.375 --> 54:07.020
[SPEAKER_09]: And look, it's great that we have diversions.
54:07.181 --> 54:08.704
[SPEAKER_09]: It's great that we love sports.
54:08.824 --> 54:09.906
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah.
54:09.886 --> 54:16.394
[SPEAKER_09]: Oops, I caught myself, but you have to realize that's another one that I'm going to have a nervous break.
54:16.454 --> 54:17.956
[SPEAKER_09]: No, my God, you're doing great.
54:17.976 --> 54:18.557
[SPEAKER_09]: You got this.
54:18.597 --> 54:19.078
[SPEAKER_09]: You got this.
54:19.178 --> 54:25.406
[SPEAKER_09]: With traumatic brain injury, we don't need it in these sports to enjoy it.
54:25.426 --> 54:26.527
[SPEAKER_09]: I think that's the plan I want.
54:26.748 --> 54:37.902
[SPEAKER_09]: And if I'm saying that, a guy that for years and years said I like old school, I hate the people that bitch about fighting in the NHL, if I can come around on that, you can come around on that
54:37.882 --> 54:58.641
[SPEAKER_09]: And I'd like to enjoy sports with the knowledge that these guys at the end of their career are not going to be in a situation where their neurons are so messed up that they end up doing damage to themselves or they just die in general it's terrible if you take it one step further you don't need that as the example being said for the youth of today that that they need to do.
54:58.621 --> 55:01.625
[SPEAKER_09]: This comes down to one word, this comes down to empathy.
55:01.845 --> 55:10.276
[SPEAKER_09]: This is just empathizing with our fellow human beings and enjoying their athletic prowess and enjoying the fact, he still have a real tough hit out there.
55:10.336 --> 55:10.517
[SPEAKER_09]: Sure.
55:10.537 --> 55:12.559
[SPEAKER_09]: You can still check guys off the puck.
55:12.579 --> 55:25.236
[SPEAKER_09]: You can do so much, and I know the sport, but when I've got a four year old who is starting out and playing the sport, I don't wanna have him in a situation that if we can avoid injuries to his brain,
55:25.216 --> 55:34.229
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah, there's not, and then by the way, the NFL is doing this and little league football is doing a lot of parents that aren't having their kids play by soccer now.
55:34.249 --> 55:42.682
[SPEAKER_09]: I don't know how the chips are going to fall with Mrs. O'Maro with this when she finds out about the fact that this particular sport can cause brain injury as well.
55:42.702 --> 55:45.626
[SPEAKER_05]: So I just wanted to say that you might start hitting themselves.
55:45.746 --> 55:46.988
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah, they're not hitting completely with it.
55:46.968 --> 55:49.931
[SPEAKER_09]: But I saw some don't he's fine for a couple of years.
55:50.231 --> 56:15.878
[SPEAKER_11]: I saw some pretty wicked hits and some bad injuries of you know at the varsity high school football level and I'm wondering if in 20 years Is there gonna be high school football and you know because you know because I'm really curious and you have to look at these sports And so you're saying that the kids want to get little guys in the lighting and there's good later The theater people got a occasional sex
56:17.410 --> 56:18.573
[SPEAKER_11]: with themselves.
56:18.713 --> 56:19.555
[SPEAKER_11]: So was it gone?
56:19.876 --> 56:23.686
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, they involved collisions with the sat.
56:25.210 --> 56:28.939
[SPEAKER_11]: I'm colliding with my hand.
56:29.493 --> 56:45.856
[SPEAKER_09]: I think you have to, if you've got a major sports league that makes all their money on this particular sport, they have to take the lead on, yeah, sign of financing the technology that's going to prevent and how the companies are already getting there.
56:46.117 --> 56:47.659
[SPEAKER_05]: They're evolving their helmets.
56:48.720 --> 56:53.106
[SPEAKER_11]: Is it true that the soccer helmets, the soccer helmets that they wear that they look like real hair?
56:53.807 --> 56:54.268
[SPEAKER_11]: No.
56:55.109 --> 56:56.812
[SPEAKER_09]: But they look like no series.
56:56.832 --> 56:57.674
[SPEAKER_09]: They're very delightful.
56:57.714 --> 57:00.219
[SPEAKER_05]: But they look like Mario brother character helmets.
57:00.299 --> 57:04.507
[SPEAKER_05]: If you have to look at that, like they look, if it's the first time I saw this is that.
57:04.547 --> 57:05.429
[SPEAKER_05]: Is that okay?
57:05.449 --> 57:06.391
[SPEAKER_05]: Is he riding the short bus?
57:06.471 --> 57:07.412
[SPEAKER_05]: It's happening.
57:07.433 --> 57:09.476
[SPEAKER_09]: Can I ask you a technical question about this?
57:09.857 --> 57:15.548
[SPEAKER_09]: That doesn't that somehow give a player an advantage for heading the ball?
57:15.528 --> 57:26.493
[SPEAKER_05]: Well, it's like if there is a mostly element of the goalies where this type of helmet, okay, because the goalies are going up and it's Goly again, they can use their hands only player on the field.
57:26.694 --> 57:34.752
[SPEAKER_05]: They can use their hands No, but put the but when the headers come in or somebody's trying to head the ball and you're going up for the ball at the same time collision happen all the time
57:34.951 --> 57:36.974
[SPEAKER_09]: with a winner and a goal.
57:36.994 --> 57:41.181
[SPEAKER_09]: So if the goal is got the helmet and the winner doesn't, that's a little to all these sports.
57:41.521 --> 57:51.256
[SPEAKER_09]: I just want to see the major professional leagues get on board because they've got the money to put into the research and it can prevent these injuries at all levels of the sport.

59:59.789 --> 01:00:21.510
[SPEAKER_09]: goes out and does the Tuscarara high school and even though we went one might make a case for that being pathetic it's not it's it's why it is kids it's it's it's being community about it's the type of thing if Rob did that Rob if Rob wanted ever run for Congress you know they could say well he also did the announcing at the you know so he helped out the show when he didn't need for my inevitable congressional run Mike

01:02:12.702 --> 01:02:18.369
[SPEAKER_09]: And then I decided that I would go to the grocery store, and buy some steam and a bag piece and carrots.
01:02:18.910 --> 01:02:20.952
[SPEAKER_11]: Oh, so you don't even have to drift into your ditch.

[SPEAKER_09]: And then I went to bed at 9 o'clock at night.
01:02:34.533 --> 01:02:35.775
[SPEAKER_09]: Okay, that's so I'm pathetic.
01:02:35.855 --> 01:02:36.396

01:02:48.093 --> 01:03:11.087
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah, and that that might be Yeah, you know, if you're talking about yeah, that would be that and then In between I occupied by time reading Reading social media, which is becoming more and more toxic to be personally where I just can't Stand I I it actually ruins my life when I read what about getting out and

01:03:30.851 --> 01:03:37.259
[SPEAKER_09]: But if I am solo, by the way, 15, 20 years ago, that would have been that would have been my number one thing.
01:03:37.439 --> 01:03:40.703
[SPEAKER_09]: I would have gotten over the show and gone to the local
01:03:40.683 --> 01:03:41.527

[SPEAKER_09]: And he can't park these faces at grace.
01:04:26.159 --> 01:04:29.342
[SPEAKER_09]: I don't doubt I could probably with some guys have a good time at a place like that.
01:04:29.362 --> 01:04:34.587
[SPEAKER_09]: But the fact is that, you know, walking in a loan at, you know, and this is where Our loan is the best.
01:04:34.907 --> 01:04:37.049
[SPEAKER_05]: But if you're a pro, you're a mystery.
01:04:37.069 --> 01:04:37.530
[SPEAKER_05]: You're a mystery.
01:04:37.690 --> 01:04:37.950
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.
01:04:37.970 --> 01:04:38.651
[SPEAKER_05]: I remember good guys.
01:04:39.111 --> 01:04:47.899
[SPEAKER_09]: I remember good guys when I was in college, and I would see the guys that were 70 years old that would walk into those joints, and it was disgusting.
01:04:47.879 --> 01:04:49.683
[SPEAKER_09]: I know money right there.
01:04:50.023 --> 01:04:50.364
[SPEAKER_11]: That's right.
01:04:50.384 --> 01:05:07.137
[SPEAKER_11]: It was Mr. Rockefeller sitting at the bar with all of his rubber bear and oil money Mr. Carnegie would like a blonde over at the right of the state and by the way if you go to the right place It's a classy place that I read a troll last night on online that says
01:05:07.117 --> 01:05:13.986
[SPEAKER_09]: The fact is, Mike has many verbal crutches, and I began to, do you know, and I, I don't care if they know.
01:05:14.207 --> 01:05:16.610
[SPEAKER_09]: I think it was a troll went to the person's pay.
01:05:16.630 --> 01:05:16.750
[SPEAKER_09]: Sure.
01:05:17.111 --> 01:05:20.575
[SPEAKER_09]: Didn't see a lot of information, which indicates a troll, but I will tell you this.
01:05:21.016 --> 01:05:22.918
[SPEAKER_09]: I really, really do that.
01:05:23.079 --> 01:05:24.040
[SPEAKER_09]: I don't care who knows it.
01:05:24.320 --> 01:05:25.662
[SPEAKER_09]: That gets into my head.
01:05:26.183 --> 01:05:31.770
[SPEAKER_09]: That gets into my head more than anything anyone could say to me, especially on days like today.
01:05:32.351 --> 01:05:33.112
[SPEAKER_09]: Days like today.
01:05:33.132 --> 01:05:34.474

[SPEAKER_07]: I'm so lonely.
01:05:38.739 --> 01:05:40.821
[SPEAKER_05]: What's your wife doing in Virginia?
01:05:41.322 --> 01:05:42.223
[SPEAKER_05]: Just coming back home now.
01:05:42.303 --> 01:05:47.769
[SPEAKER_09]: She was moving some stuff down here and so she's she's coming back home.
01:05:47.789 --> 01:05:56.118
[SPEAKER_09]: And I can't wait to see her and I'll be glad when she gets back because it used to be there was a day when solo mic.
01:05:56.238 --> 01:05:58.681
[SPEAKER_09]: Oh, and you know, it's compounded by what I talked about yesterday.
01:05:58.721 --> 01:06:00.202
[SPEAKER_09]: The the boys are that are.
01:06:00.222 --> 01:06:01.744
[SPEAKER_09]: And that's a four day
01:06:01.724 --> 01:06:03.125
[SPEAKER_11]: That's a ninety-six hours.
01:06:03.165 --> 01:06:03.906
[SPEAKER_09]: That's a problem.
01:06:04.126 --> 01:06:07.990
[SPEAKER_09]: But here's the thing, they're going to die younger than I am because they're killing their livers, right?
01:06:08.010 --> 01:06:12.714
[SPEAKER_05]: I was explaining to Shane that you don't have any friends and why you wouldn't golf with Rob or I.
01:06:13.655 --> 01:06:16.318
[SPEAKER_05]: And she was up here briefly.
01:06:16.698 --> 01:06:22.003
[SPEAKER_05]: And Rob said, yeah, he said that he wouldn't play golf with us because we don't know how to play golf.
01:06:22.043 --> 01:06:23.985
[SPEAKER_05]: And she goes, well, why do you have to not to play golf?
01:06:24.705 --> 01:06:26.167
[SPEAKER_05]: I'm fun with your friends.
01:06:26.187 --> 01:06:30.651
[SPEAKER_05]: And I said, well, because Mike's
01:06:30.631 --> 01:06:37.145
[SPEAKER_09]: Well, no, you know, and that's who I would consult on the game of golf is your wife, Shannon, because she's such an incredible expert.
01:06:37.225 --> 01:06:50.293
[SPEAKER_09]: Oh, no, the fact is, you know, I said the fact is it's a regular man I got myself there's that guy that's going to write the time code down when I caught it if the alarm I'm hitting it on myself.
01:06:52.552 --> 01:06:53.974
[SPEAKER_05]: We don't like beating you up, Mike.
01:06:53.994 --> 01:06:54.915
[SPEAKER_05]: That's why that's all right.
01:06:54.955 --> 01:06:57.338
[SPEAKER_05]: Don't you wish those big amazing episodes.
01:06:57.358 --> 01:07:03.285
[SPEAKER_11]: You said you're pathetic, but don't you wish you had the time to dissect every syllable that someone else was saying?
01:07:03.986 --> 01:07:05.247
[SPEAKER_09]: Who's pathetic now?

01:07:15.940 --> 01:07:21.169
[SPEAKER_09]: But you should turn on lights man reading posts about my verbal crutches.
01:07:21.650 --> 01:07:22.652

01:07:22.772 --> 01:07:23.253
[SPEAKER_09]: There we go.

[SPEAKER_09]: on pay per view and I just couldn't make it I got no and when it says buy for sixty nine and I said no you're you're you're force feet well here's what here's the way I look at that you are force feeding me
01:07:51.277 --> 01:07:55.705
[SPEAKER_09]: this movie to buy when I want to rent this academy award.
01:07:55.745 --> 01:08:01.556
[SPEAKER_11]: If I wanted what if I said rented I rented for 1699 is it the mental block that you're buying it?
01:08:02.057 --> 01:08:09.792
[SPEAKER_09]: I don't think I would have rented it for 1699 they're telling you what they're trying this is the movie industry compensating for Netflix and Hulu.
01:08:09.772 --> 01:08:10.032
[SPEAKER_09]: Right.
01:08:10.072 --> 01:08:16.964
[SPEAKER_09]: All the other services and they're trying to force feed you to purchase the film and it's like you're saying it like it's it's it.
01:08:17.144 --> 01:08:17.905
[SPEAKER_09]: I'm right about this.
01:08:18.286 --> 01:08:22.773
[SPEAKER_09]: They're force feeding us to buy a movie ticket when we didn't want we want to rent it.
01:08:22.953 --> 01:08:23.254
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah.
01:08:23.274 --> 01:08:24.336
[SPEAKER_09]: That's why we didn't see it.
01:08:24.456 --> 01:08:25.998
[SPEAKER_11]: It is roughly the cost of buy.
01:08:26.079 --> 01:08:28.442
[SPEAKER_11]: It's roughly the cost of two movie tickets.
01:08:28.623 --> 01:08:30.886
[SPEAKER_05]: I bought the same as going out to a movie with your day.
01:08:30.926 --> 01:08:31.487
[SPEAKER_05]: Exactly.
01:08:31.507 --> 01:08:32.789
[SPEAKER_05]: I bought geostorm.
01:08:32.950 --> 01:08:33.190
[SPEAKER_05]: Right.
01:08:33.671 --> 01:08:34.352
[SPEAKER_05]: How was geost.
01:08:34.372 --> 01:08:36.235
[SPEAKER_05]: Twenty three dollars.
01:08:36.215 --> 01:08:38.057
[SPEAKER_05]: two weeks before you could rent it.
01:08:38.357 --> 01:08:40.099
[SPEAKER_05]: You are pouring your cash into it.
01:08:40.119 --> 01:08:44.263
[SPEAKER_11]: Well, you should get a muffin basket from the acquire live in the city.
01:08:44.624 --> 01:08:47.487
[SPEAKER_05]: It costs $20 just to go to the movies if you're lucky.
01:08:47.507 --> 01:08:53.613
[SPEAKER_09]: You understand my point when you buy these, but you're, this is the movie industry's new trick.
01:08:53.633 --> 01:08:56.836
[SPEAKER_09]: I get to give you a smile or money to put it to the market, right?
01:08:56.916 --> 01:09:01.181
[SPEAKER_05]: No, Mike, we worked too hard not to earn just a preview.
01:09:01.361 --> 01:09:03.403
[SPEAKER_05]: Maybe two weeks early in the public.
01:09:03.383 --> 01:09:07.137
[SPEAKER_09]: The general one when I used to pay my dues that used to get all those movies.
01:09:07.599 --> 01:09:08.201

[SPEAKER_09]: I don't know if they did.
01:09:10.209 --> 01:09:11.554
[SPEAKER_09]: When did you like that lapse?
01:09:11.635 --> 01:09:32.895
[SPEAKER_09]: Well, it was the it was the the age of DVD so I was not getting them digitally I was getting little codes Yeah, down that was probably five years ago and by the way, I'll all I have to do is so you make good But your sag situation is what stop you from buying the sag if my dues were current and I have not made them current Then I would be getting these movies.
01:09:32.995 --> 01:09:37.980

[SPEAKER_11]: He's a guy from Maine, and as you know, Mike spends a lot of time in Maine.
00:48.955 --> 00:51.777
[SPEAKER_11]: So they see eye to eye on a lot of Maine issues.
00:52.058 --> 00:55.801
[SPEAKER_11]: And he is so genuinely and naturally funny.
00:55.821 --> 00:58.744
[SPEAKER_11]: I really, really love talking to him.
00:59.104 --> 01:01.767
[SPEAKER_11]: So we start off botmos with Bob Marley.
01:02.147 --> 01:03.428
[SPEAKER_11]: He's a wicked pizza.
01:04.209 --> 01:07.652
[SPEAKER_11]: I can't even try to do a Maine accent when what you're about to hear is so great.
01:07.632 --> 01:11.278

[SPEAKER_09]: We're doing great, Bob Marley.
01:33.015 --> 01:42.212
[SPEAKER_04]: I am held up in a bunker up here in Maine, and I'm waiting for Armageddon, the windstorm, of which nothing is happening right now.
01:42.513 --> 02:06.917
[SPEAKER_04]: Oh, so you're not getting anything are you it now you were born in Portland, man, are you in southern Maine or are you in any other part of that massive yeah, I mean, I was actually born in Bangor, but I'm in Portland now, but yeah, so we're not we haven't got slammed with it yet, but they're full force up here, you know, we have that huge windstorm in October, which was that that one came out of nowhere.
02:07.353 --> 02:08.795
[SPEAKER_04]: And we all took it for granted.
02:08.895 --> 02:13.020
[SPEAKER_04]: My wife and I were watching the local news guy and he's like, well, he got a gale force.
02:13.040 --> 02:17.305
[SPEAKER_04]: Wed's coming out there and my wife goes, put it back on Shock Tank Bob.
02:17.345 --> 02:19.007
[SPEAKER_09]: This is a shock tank.

[SPEAKER_08]: Shock.
02:20.669 --> 02:22.771

02:23.332 --> 02:24.553
[SPEAKER_04]: We are clocking the morning.
02:24.753 --> 02:26.575
[SPEAKER_04]: A burst tree comes through the living room.
02:26.615 --> 02:29.259
[SPEAKER_04]: I'm like, huh, it seems to be developing for something.
02:29.279 --> 02:29.759
[SPEAKER_04]: That's nothing.
02:31.741 --> 02:35.706
[SPEAKER_04]: So I'm down there in my under way as in a pair of flip-lops and a chainsaw.
02:35.686 --> 02:37.549
[SPEAKER_04]: cutting the tree up.
02:37.569 --> 02:39.372

[SPEAKER_04]: You need to put some clothes on.
02:43.399 --> 02:44.962
[SPEAKER_04]: I might get worried about my outfit.
02:45.082 --> 02:47.706
[SPEAKER_04]: Is there's a tree in the living room right now?
02:49.409 --> 02:51.012
[SPEAKER_04]: Probably a little more pressing.
02:50.992 --> 03:08.076
[SPEAKER_09]: You're a true manor you know after with the chainsaw in your boxes that listen Bob I got a talk I want to do some main talk because I split my my time in southern Florida and then I'm up in Hancock You produce or told me up in Hancock County dude That's it.
03:08.096 --> 03:08.777
[SPEAKER_04]: Don't like that.
03:08.837 --> 03:11.481
[SPEAKER_04]: You guys don't you don't even know what they're saying
03:11.461 --> 03:14.386
[SPEAKER_06]: All right, we're gonna do it.
03:14.907 --> 03:16.870
[SPEAKER_04]: Bear my personal life's plate.
03:16.890 --> 03:19.655
[SPEAKER_04]: Oh, mirror coming up from someplace else.
03:19.755 --> 03:24.863
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah Here's the deal.
03:25.084 --> 03:26.506
[SPEAKER_09]: All right, let me give you the background.
03:26.586 --> 03:27.107
[SPEAKER_09]: I know
03:27.087 --> 03:55.677
[SPEAKER_09]: Here's the thing Bob Marley, you know Maine, you were born in Maine, Maine's a big part of what you talk about in, and this is my observation, all right, growing up and having summers up there in Hancock County, Hancock Point specifically, now I live in Hancock and growing up there, it was always fascinating, it was kind of quaint, it was kind of cute, there were men that my father would have conversations with, where I literally would not understand what the man was saying.
03:55.657 --> 04:11.217
[SPEAKER_09]: There was a guy that was a guy Tommy Andrews that ran a boat yet, and he would have a conversation and he had this kind of slow-witted sidekick toot that it was Tommy and too.
04:11.718 --> 04:16.264
[SPEAKER_09]: And so he'd be talking to my father, and our yacht was a 17-foot-bossed umbrella.
04:16.304 --> 04:17.906
[SPEAKER_09]: So that's what I grew up on.
04:18.226 --> 04:21.050
[SPEAKER_09]: And this is, I will give you what it sounded like.
04:21.310 --> 04:23.453
[SPEAKER_09]: Tommy would come down and thought to my dad and say,
04:23.433 --> 04:24.795
[SPEAKER_09]: Well, you're great, Bill.
04:24.835 --> 04:26.897
[SPEAKER_09]: I don't want you here, son of two, two.
04:26.917 --> 04:27.518
[SPEAKER_09]: God damn it.
04:27.638 --> 04:28.319
[SPEAKER_09]: Oh, they go there.
04:28.339 --> 04:29.039
[SPEAKER_09]: They're thing like that.
04:29.059 --> 04:32.704
[SPEAKER_09]: And I would be sitting there just with my mouth and getting my father be having a regular conversation with him.
04:33.004 --> 04:33.885
[SPEAKER_09]: And it was quaint.
04:34.285 --> 04:38.570
[SPEAKER_09]: Let me tell you Bob, my impression now, the locals have been in God County.
04:39.011 --> 04:41.774
[SPEAKER_09]: Maine has gotten really pissed off, Bob.
04:41.954 --> 04:43.796
[SPEAKER_09]: It's a pissed off state right now.
04:44.157 --> 04:46.960
[SPEAKER_09]: And I want your take on it because you live there, my friend.
04:46.940 --> 04:58.837
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, I mean, well, listen, when you have a total amount of maybe three weeks of sunshine during the year, there's not a lot to look forward to.
04:59.257 --> 05:00.159
[SPEAKER_04]: No, I know.
05:00.179 --> 05:05.085
[SPEAKER_04]: You know, like we just had minus 24 degrees.
05:05.586 --> 05:10.072
[SPEAKER_04]: Like every morning we woke up for like three weeks in a row, like I know.
05:10.093 --> 05:11.835
[SPEAKER_04]: You wonder why people are disgruntled.
05:11.895 --> 05:14.719
[SPEAKER_04]: Like it shouldn't hurt to go outside as a person.
05:15.104 --> 05:20.950
[SPEAKER_04]: You shouldn't go outside and just be like, I'm not going to make it to the car.
05:21.210 --> 05:21.751
[SPEAKER_04]: I'm not.
05:21.811 --> 05:24.194
[SPEAKER_04]: This is not going to happen.
05:24.494 --> 05:28.378
[SPEAKER_04]: Like the only thing people do in Maine is plot their dismount.
05:28.498 --> 05:35.686
[SPEAKER_04]: Like, when you get older, everyone's like, well, we'll get out of here at some point, when they're being paroled from prison.
05:35.706 --> 05:38.168
[SPEAKER_01]: That's the point.
05:38.188 --> 05:44.335
[SPEAKER_01]: Joyce and I have got something set up, I guess her sisters got a double-wide in Ocawa.
05:44.315 --> 05:56.010
[SPEAKER_01]: That's probably when we'll make our move.
05:56.030 --> 05:58.153
[SPEAKER_01]: Look, you think he's doing stick buzz.
05:58.173 --> 05:59.275
[SPEAKER_10]: He's talking about the weather.
05:59.435 --> 05:59.836
[SPEAKER_10]: It is.
05:59.856 --> 06:01.778
[SPEAKER_10]: It is weather related.
06:01.878 --> 06:02.799
[SPEAKER_10]: I swear to God.
06:03.160 --> 06:05.563
[SPEAKER_04]: I know people bring up these guys in Maine.
06:05.583 --> 06:07.345
[SPEAKER_04]: It's funny because they always do seem to have.
06:07.385 --> 06:10.069
[SPEAKER_04]: They always come in and impacts.
06:10.252 --> 06:18.223
[SPEAKER_04]: It's always like a the smartest guy of the group that does the speaking and then there's always a guy like like the other guy you mentioned.
06:18.243 --> 06:28.257
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, yeah, like he'll say, well, I guess we could bring it around the other side and he goes, yeah, don't, don't just shut up, Kyle, I'll take care of it.
06:28.778 --> 06:37.710
[SPEAKER_04]: You know, it's always a collection of guys you feel like, you know, they would either save a puppy or build a still in the yard like you don't go.
06:38.703 --> 06:42.509
[SPEAKER_04]: you can't and you can't tell you can't identify him.
06:42.769 --> 06:49.259
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, like the wicked nice adult, there's also an undertone of like, yeah, some's going on there, I don't know.
06:50.181 --> 07:00.456
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah, you just, there's that undercurrent of a little bit of a hostility, and you know, I'll tell you something though, and this the way I roll up there, I enjoy my family.
07:00.496 --> 07:01.238
[SPEAKER_09]: Don't get me wrong.
07:01.358 --> 07:02.820
[SPEAKER_09]: I enjoy the summer
07:02.800 --> 07:11.638
[SPEAKER_09]: But I enjoy and always have, maybe the way I was raised, I enjoy the people that live up their year-round more because they get the whole summer thing.
07:11.999 --> 07:22.902
[SPEAKER_09]: And you just can't have a summer community anywhere without that level of elitism that people have, where people are just hanging out up there and it's just like, oh, Biff,
07:22.882 --> 07:29.731
[SPEAKER_09]: Biff, where are we going to bring the picnic on Saturday and you know everybody else is like that oh god damn it, they're just so full of crap.
07:29.751 --> 07:33.055
[SPEAKER_09]: I can't even believe it, you know, and I'm mowing their god damn lawn.
07:33.135 --> 07:36.220
[SPEAKER_09]: I mean, it's the role, it's the way they roll up there.
07:36.240 --> 07:46.493
[SPEAKER_04]: It's you know, main people are kind of like people from England, you know, where they're smiling like going, oh, what a food to see you isn't it, and they have that phone of, you know, it's really not.
07:48.717 --> 07:53.763
[SPEAKER_04]: And they're always called hardy.
07:53.924 --> 07:55.566
[SPEAKER_04]: Main people are always called hardy.
07:55.586 --> 07:58.630
[SPEAKER_04]: All they're hardy manners, which is basically means miserable.
07:58.790 --> 08:08.282
[SPEAKER_04]: You know, like you hear people in Maine, they'll say something like this, so they'll say, it's not that bad up here as long as you can.
08:08.302 --> 08:14.590
[SPEAKER_04]: You know, if you can get through December, January, February, March, April, half a May,
08:15.937 --> 08:19.001
[SPEAKER_04]: You'll be here as he is horrible, really.

[SPEAKER_04]: It's just a goal.
09:12.420 --> 09:14.425

[SPEAKER_04]: It's a very well organized city.
09:38.211 --> 09:41.715
[SPEAKER_04]: It's all the streets are numbered and lettered.
09:41.695 --> 09:48.769
[SPEAKER_04]: You could, you know, if you like to drink, you can go out and drink and then you find your hotel room.
09:48.789 --> 09:51.013
[SPEAKER_04]: It's like a game of battleship every night.
09:51.033 --> 09:54.540
[SPEAKER_04]: You know, 47, I found it.
09:56.680 --> 09:57.862

10:14.190 --> 10:17.355
[SPEAKER_09]: Are there any, because you think in terms of, uh,
10:17.335 --> 10:32.211
[SPEAKER_09]: I guess the Washington D.C. area is a very transient area, and then you talk about that let's say the East Coast of Florida, which is a population of a lot of New Yorkers and people down there, are there regions of the country where you find more of a New England influence?
10:32.231 --> 10:40.200
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, you'll get displaced New Englanders everywhere, and then the places that they don't like, if I go to Florida, I'll just give them a hard time.

[SPEAKER_04]: I'm like, you people have no idea what like real life is like, like, you know.

19:16.137 --> 19:19.421
[SPEAKER_11]: Welcome back to Botmos, the best of the Michael Maris Show.
19:20.182 --> 19:23.386
[SPEAKER_11]: This actually originally aired during a bonus show.
19:23.947 --> 19:28.152
[SPEAKER_11]: So if you're not a bonus subscriber, first off, shame on you.
19:28.172 --> 19:29.614
[SPEAKER_11]: But you've never heard it before.
19:30.055 --> 19:36.823
[SPEAKER_11]: This is a story that has been referred to and told briefly in the past, but this is the full version.
19:37.564 --> 19:42.330
[SPEAKER_11]: And as I said, in the northeastern part of the United States, Mike grew up in
19:42.310 --> 19:45.314
[SPEAKER_11]: Connecticut, and that's where this story takes place.
19:45.774 --> 19:46.696
[SPEAKER_11]: So enjoy it.
19:47.156 --> 19:56.809
[SPEAKER_11]: It involves ice skates and his sister Kathy, but we call it simply the poop parable on the best of the micro marriage show.
19:56.829 --> 20:04.479
[SPEAKER_09]: To start the bonus show, it has been requested that I tell the parable, the fabel of the Pond hockey incident.
20:04.579 --> 20:07.523
[SPEAKER_11]: I think it's more of a parable because it teaches a lesson.
20:07.543 --> 20:10.967
[SPEAKER_11]: Does it not
20:10.947 --> 20:11.788
[SPEAKER_11]: How about this?
20:12.149 --> 20:13.191
[SPEAKER_11]: We've never done this.
20:13.792 --> 20:17.197
[SPEAKER_11]: After we tell the parable, let's all say what we learned from it.
20:17.998 --> 20:18.339
[SPEAKER_09]: Okay.
20:18.359 --> 20:20.683
[SPEAKER_09]: Well, then we'd be open and empty.
20:20.963 --> 20:22.345
[SPEAKER_09]: But that would be the end of the show.
20:22.365 --> 20:23.888
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, this is within the show.
20:24.008 --> 20:24.889
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah, within the show.
20:25.410 --> 20:28.315
[SPEAKER_09]: I believe I am nine or ten years old.
20:28.515 --> 20:28.756
[SPEAKER_09]: Yes.
20:29.417 --> 20:35.807
[SPEAKER_09]: And back in the day, back when before global warming took hold around the world,
20:35.787 --> 20:44.374
[SPEAKER_09]: There were very, very cold winters in Connecticut and the ponds every single year would freeze over and we would love love love.
20:44.394 --> 20:49.189
[SPEAKER_09]: There's nothing we enjoyed more than skating on the ponds each and every day.
20:50.958 --> 20:53.981
[SPEAKER_09]: Yes, with our hands behind our back and tassels in our hair.
20:54.101 --> 20:58.025
[SPEAKER_09]: And the organism, the hardest part was getting me organ out to the pond.
20:58.045 --> 21:05.452
[SPEAKER_09]: And we would love, we would, well, I would go out in the morning at like nine o'clock eight o'clock nine o'clock in the morning.
21:05.952 --> 21:07.634
[SPEAKER_09]: I would skate until sundown.
21:07.714 --> 21:11.377
[SPEAKER_09]: I would skate all day and I would maybe come in for lunch.
21:11.858 --> 21:14.400
[SPEAKER_09]: And by the way, in my day in my neighborhood.
21:14.901 --> 21:18.484
[SPEAKER_09]: And I know a lot of people that will relate to this.
21:18.464 --> 21:20.747
[SPEAKER_09]: called their children to to lunch and supper.
21:20.807 --> 21:23.090
[SPEAKER_09]: That's the way we say, Mike, come to this.
21:23.110 --> 21:23.991
[SPEAKER_09]: That was what we didn't know.
21:24.011 --> 21:26.435
[SPEAKER_09]: Maybe they just lean out the window and bellow.
21:26.455 --> 21:30.620
[SPEAKER_09]: There was no worry of the child being abducted or any of this.
21:30.700 --> 21:35.146
[SPEAKER_09]: It would just be, they just lean out the window and call you and you would be called for dinner.
21:35.206 --> 21:44.218
[SPEAKER_11]: When you talk about the pond, was it an actual geographical pond or was it the kind of thing where you would leave the hose on and flood the backyard and freeze?
21:44.198 --> 22:02.254
[SPEAKER_09]: Next door to my house was a brook a stream that ran and by the way, there's a song called The Hills of My Connecticut Connecticut is filled with hills and so there were lots of rolling hills and ponds and streams and in my particular neighborhood You had one big pond up the hill wood pond.
22:02.314 --> 22:14.205
[SPEAKER_09]: It was called a wood pond road and then that would feed the brook down into a tiny little pond
22:14.185 --> 22:26.696
[SPEAKER_09]: And it would feed the pond in back of the Kelly's house, and then that would go over a little damn that they had and I think it would look that would feed the last pond that was down right behind our house.
22:27.077 --> 22:29.342
[SPEAKER_09]: So there were technically within
22:29.322 --> 22:55.617
[SPEAKER_09]: less than a half a mile there were three ponds that you could skate on but the one that we were skating on that day was right behind Kelly's it was the closest to my house I could walk down the hill and get on the get on the the ice and I could skate all day long and it was not as big a pond as the other one so it's just a couple of us that had a makeshift goal set up and we were slapping the puck around and I would I could do it for hours it was it was by the way it was why many people in my neighborhood were
22:59.528 --> 23:01.310
[SPEAKER_11]: What the f*** are you playing?
23:01.471 --> 23:03.033
[SPEAKER_11]: It's the hills of my Connecticut.
23:03.854 --> 23:04.455
[SPEAKER_11]: You found it?
23:04.795 --> 23:04.935
[SPEAKER_11]: Yes.
23:05.696 --> 23:06.477
[SPEAKER_11]: I've never heard it.
23:06.538 --> 23:07.038
[SPEAKER_11]: Turn it up.
23:07.819 --> 23:11.504
[SPEAKER_11]: Let's take it from the Atlantic.
23:11.664 --> 23:12.385
[SPEAKER_11]: Here I go from the top.
23:12.405 --> 23:16.671
[SPEAKER_11]: Turn it up.
23:16.751 --> 23:21.638
[SPEAKER_08]: You got to send it today.
23:25.212 --> 23:38.867
[SPEAKER_08]: And the land is peaceful and lovely She might feel like you were always born It's where I want to live and die
23:40.231 --> 24:01.615
[SPEAKER_09]: The first version is by the Yankee Nutmiggers Oh the Yankee Nutmiggers Forany group Oh they released super-borny Everyone in every sub I'm gonna give them some My god And I'm gonna give them some I'm gonna give them some Let me get close to that song for a second But here we go I put it on there Here we go And
24:02.860 --> 24:03.943
[SPEAKER_09]: It's been destroyed.
24:04.083 --> 24:05.306
[SPEAKER_09]: Shall I send it to you anyway?
24:05.326 --> 24:06.549
[SPEAKER_09]: Oh, go ahead.
24:06.569 --> 24:08.092
[SPEAKER_09]: OK. Oh, it fills up my head again.
24:08.533 --> 24:11.099
[SPEAKER_09]: The point is that that's what we did during the winter.
24:11.500 --> 24:16.251
[SPEAKER_09]: And on this particular day, I had had a lunch.
24:16.792 --> 24:18.456
[SPEAKER_09]: And then I had had.
24:18.436 --> 24:37.845
[SPEAKER_09]: Kind of an early supper because my parents were going somewhere and my sister who was seven years older than I am was baby sitting me and my sister would have been 15 16 at the time Okay, you know, and I because I'm you know, she's seven year age difference and that makes me what when she's 15 Well, he's nine years nine or 10
24:37.825 --> 24:38.446
[SPEAKER_09]: Nine or ten.
24:38.466 --> 24:38.766
[SPEAKER_09]: Right.
24:38.786 --> 24:41.548
[SPEAKER_09]: So she's babysitting me and I have a lunch.
24:41.588 --> 25:07.832
[SPEAKER_09]: I think right before my parents Or a late lunch and I went back down to a skate and I'm skating and having so much fun And it's so cold and I'm all bundled up But it doesn't matter cuz I got my hockey gloves on and I got my hockey skates on and I'm really really excited And I think my hockey skates were my dads use skates that I used for years and years and years and it was just and if you'd seen these skates It looks like something out of uh, you know, hunts brinkery
25:07.812 --> 25:11.360
[SPEAKER_05]: I think that's commonplace when you're a kid.
25:11.421 --> 25:16.934
[SPEAKER_11]: You just use what your old brother had or what your pot's had, probably wearing like eight pairs of socks.
25:16.954 --> 25:18.497
[SPEAKER_09]: So they've got eight pairs of socks.
25:18.778 --> 25:18.979
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.
25:19.039 --> 25:20.683
[SPEAKER_09]: And it's just, but it's fun fun.
25:21.264 --> 25:22.547
[SPEAKER_09]: So much fun.
25:23.135 --> 25:31.384
[SPEAKER_09]: that I forgot that nature was was brewing in my large intestine.
25:31.584 --> 25:43.176
[SPEAKER_09]: I didn't realize that as the as the hours rolled away, that suddenly it just hit me like a ton of bricks, especially after a winter time lunch, I guess, of probably it was Saturday.
25:43.517 --> 25:47.561
[SPEAKER_09]: So it was probably like chili or spaghetti sauce or something like that.
25:47.581 --> 25:51.505
[SPEAKER_11]: Oh no, that's until we've been in explosives, we've never gotten that before.
25:51.485 --> 26:06.936
[SPEAKER_09]: By the way, if you ever have the vegan chick pea tuna salad, the artificial that is I call natures explosive If you ever want to really get your system started, you could use that very very innocent Blown if that was a mic Connecticut.
26:07.297 --> 26:12.668
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah, I'm surprised as I'm blow a hole in your stomach It's out that's powerful, but anyway, I digress.
26:12.688 --> 26:13.189
[SPEAKER_09]: Yes
26:13.388 --> 26:26.304
[SPEAKER_09]: the pond was cold, we were cold, and suddenly immediately with no waiting with no hesitation, I felt what I like to refer to as the pain.
26:27.005 --> 26:33.152
[SPEAKER_09]: And the pain was instantaneous, and I said, I better get up the hill, jacks Brett.
26:33.172 --> 26:38.279
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah, I better get up that hill, and I go up the hill, and I leave my skates on.
26:38.439 --> 26:43.345
[SPEAKER_09]: There's no time to even deal with the skates.
26:43.325 --> 26:43.826
[SPEAKER_09]: Right.
26:43.926 --> 26:52.616
[SPEAKER_09]: There's a lot of lacing and I don't want to take the time and we have a runner on what are yield New England hardwood floors.
26:52.756 --> 26:57.422
[SPEAKER_09]: These were not hardwood floors because people wanted fancy hardwood floors.
26:57.522 --> 27:01.347
[SPEAKER_09]: These were hardwood floors because they were the floors that the pilgrims.
27:01.407 --> 27:02.208
[SPEAKER_09]: That's what they built.
27:02.248 --> 27:03.189
[SPEAKER_09]: That's what they built.
27:03.209 --> 27:03.890
[SPEAKER_09]: That's what floors.
27:04.090 --> 27:06.854
[SPEAKER_09]: All the houses in Connecticut in my town.
27:06.874 --> 27:09.837
[SPEAKER_09]: How do you have the pilgrims built them first?
27:10.138 --> 27:12.100
[SPEAKER_09]: How do you know that?
27:12.080 --> 27:14.727
[SPEAKER_09]: Mike, Mike, Mike, how's it going?
27:14.868 --> 27:27.642
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah, it's going to get up there and for whatever reason, God knows what she was up to, but the door, the side door to my little cape that I lived in, was locked.
27:27.622 --> 27:31.666
[SPEAKER_09]: And I banged on the door because I wanted to get it.
27:32.046 --> 27:34.008
[SPEAKER_09]: Kathy, my sister, comes to the door.
27:34.689 --> 27:38.233
[SPEAKER_09]: And I said, Kathy, let me in, please, I've got to use the bathroom.
27:38.253 --> 27:40.074
[SPEAKER_09]: And she says, not with those skates on.
27:40.155 --> 27:41.596
[SPEAKER_09]: I said, you don't understand.
27:41.716 --> 27:42.857
[SPEAKER_09]: I'll walk over the carpet.
27:42.877 --> 27:45.780
[SPEAKER_09]: I'll be gentle, please, not with the skates on.
27:46.100 --> 27:48.463
[SPEAKER_09]: I said, I have an emergency.
27:48.603 --> 27:51.065
[SPEAKER_09]: I have a not with the skates on.
27:51.206 --> 27:52.947
[SPEAKER_09]: And I said, so I'm pleading with her.
27:53.067 --> 27:54.709
[SPEAKER_09]: And this argument, I realized,
27:54.689 --> 28:18.182
[SPEAKER_09]: And every time that passes, yeah, if I had just perhaps sat down on the bench on the little walkway from the garage into our house in our, and am I painting that New England picture of you are a tiny little, although I will jump to your defense because if you are that far into what we call it my household the urgency, yeah, sometimes sifting to a sitting position, you might actually accelerate the process.
28:18.162 --> 28:27.838
[SPEAKER_09]: Well, it's funny you bring that up because finally I realize she is not she's not going to yell I said, but it's cold actually said you can come in and sit on the chair right over here And she points right inside.
28:28.178 --> 28:38.075
[SPEAKER_09]: I would walk through the dining room right then through the kitchen and there's the the bathroom We had one on the main floor one on the upstairs only we have one of the basement We had one bathroom in the basement.
28:38.195 --> 28:42.482
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah, that was very very cold, but later in life That's where I went for a private time
28:42.462 --> 28:44.106
[SPEAKER_09]: And I don't mean bad private time.
28:44.126 --> 28:46.292
[SPEAKER_09]: I mean, that's where if you really had to drop a boost.
28:46.432 --> 28:46.613
[SPEAKER_09]: Oh, okay.
28:46.633 --> 28:50.222
[SPEAKER_09]: That's where you would go not to infringe on anybody else's uh I understand.
28:50.242 --> 28:51.345
[SPEAKER_09]: As a courtesy.
28:52.127 --> 28:58.885
[SPEAKER_09]: So she uh she standing there like a goddamn prison guard standing over me.
28:58.865 --> 29:02.891
[SPEAKER_09]: And I sit down and I'm in one of my parents yield colonial chairs.
29:02.951 --> 29:12.565
[SPEAKER_09]: These, you know, these chairs that if you and I sat on them right now, Rob, they collapse and I beg you, dozens and dozens of thin spindly, like dowel rods that hold together, I know the style you mean.
29:12.625 --> 29:13.106
[SPEAKER_09]: That's it.
29:13.266 --> 29:13.567
[SPEAKER_09]: That's it.
29:13.587 --> 29:13.787
[SPEAKER_09]: That's it.
29:13.847 --> 29:14.829
[SPEAKER_09]: That's what they all had.
29:14.849 --> 29:15.510
[SPEAKER_09]: I'm everything.
29:15.650 --> 29:22.180
[SPEAKER_02]: Of course, we'll a spinning wheel in the corner and like a Michael, these are early American and they're classic and they'll never go out of style.
29:22.220 --> 29:26.526
[SPEAKER_09]: Yes, straw, which in the corner is corn.
29:26.506 --> 29:32.338
[SPEAKER_09]: So I'm sitting in this I'm sitting in the chair and I start to unlace my first boot.
29:32.558 --> 29:42.658
[SPEAKER_09]: Yes, and as I I get two two strands done, and I feel And unfortunately he at that point
29:42.638 --> 30:10.705

30:13.711 --> 30:16.756
[SPEAKER_09]: This was just this was not there were more layers to this.
30:17.878 --> 30:19.902
[SPEAKER_11]: Oh, the unwrapping had to be hideous.

[SPEAKER_09]: It was horrible.
30:21.104 --> 30:22.246
[SPEAKER_09]: Yes, it was a horrible.
30:22.307 --> 30:24.511
[SPEAKER_09]: The hot and just sister respond.

[SPEAKER_09]: I think she assisted me
30:48.468 --> 30:51.594
[SPEAKER_09]: like like helping me get out of these these nasty soil.
30:51.614 --> 30:54.159
[SPEAKER_05]: Well, she became she became a sister.
30:54.380 --> 31:03.377
[SPEAKER_09]: A sister that boy became an older carrying sister after she tortured me into evacuating my bowels in the colonial dining room.
31:03.397 --> 31:08.367
[SPEAKER_11]: Man, offer a counterpoint on that because you know, everyone has a different take on this story.
31:08.347 --> 31:12.776
[SPEAKER_11]: When you actually soiled yourself, I believe she's very bright lady.
31:12.816 --> 31:15.922
[SPEAKER_11]: We know this started thinking three or four steps ahead.
31:15.982 --> 31:16.603
[SPEAKER_11]: Right.
31:16.623 --> 31:20.571
[SPEAKER_11]: And also started to think, how is a nine year old going to clean himself up?
31:21.072 --> 31:24.298
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, mom and dad are going to come home and say, what happened to Michael?
31:24.719 --> 31:28.466
[SPEAKER_11]: Well, and so unless it's taking care of, she was in charge.
31:28.988 --> 31:30.270
[SPEAKER_09]: She's covering her ass.
31:30.250 --> 31:33.854
[SPEAKER_09]: My memory of it is this and it's, you know, so many, many moons ago.
31:34.134 --> 31:34.995
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah, 50 years ago.
31:35.516 --> 31:38.399
[SPEAKER_09]: But the fact is, there's the fact that you said it again.
31:39.340 --> 31:49.972
[SPEAKER_09]: I remembered being very skillful in the clean-up process because there's nothing that horrified me more at that particular time.
31:50.172 --> 31:53.736
[SPEAKER_09]: There's no, I didn't want any, I didn't want any.
31:53.756 --> 31:54.317
[SPEAKER_09]: Superge.
31:54.297 --> 32:16.901
[SPEAKER_09]: had all what took and I remember delicately balancing everything and being able to get it off without any further mess, but then hand the outside package, which may have gone to the trash or may have gone to the laundry to my sister and because I still had one and a half skates, you know, one skates half on laced and the other skates laced.
32:17.262 --> 32:22.127
[SPEAKER_09]: She, you know, I, no, she took the skates off
32:22.107 --> 32:22.888
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah, it's true.
32:22.989 --> 32:24.592
[SPEAKER_09]: And let she's like, she's there.
32:24.632 --> 32:25.413
[SPEAKER_09]: No, what hold on.
32:25.593 --> 32:26.495
[SPEAKER_09]: That's what she did.
32:26.836 --> 32:29.260
[SPEAKER_09]: She helped me take my skates off.
32:29.280 --> 32:37.555
[SPEAKER_09]: And then she told me to bring the the mess down to the basement where the washer and dryer were and that's that's where I brought my my stuff.
32:38.117 --> 32:43.486
[SPEAKER_11]: That's what and I don't remember what I thought you were naked from the waist down when you brought the stuff down.
32:43.506 --> 32:44.368
[SPEAKER_11]: Duck style.
32:44.348 --> 32:45.430
[SPEAKER_09]: I don't remember.
32:45.630 --> 32:46.492
[SPEAKER_05]: No pants.
32:46.532 --> 32:48.596
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, I'll say this.
32:48.997 --> 32:53.244
[SPEAKER_05]: You have to burn those clothes in my family.
32:53.265 --> 32:54.908
[SPEAKER_05]: It's not going to come back from that.
32:55.248 --> 32:57.052
[SPEAKER_09]: We didn't have a lot of money on spirit.
32:57.072 --> 32:57.613
[SPEAKER_09]: And you know what?
32:57.653 --> 32:58.494
[SPEAKER_09]: That's we didn't end.
32:58.534 --> 33:00.338
[SPEAKER_09]: There's nothing that Todd can't take care of.
33:00.798 --> 33:01.720
[SPEAKER_11]: Well, I was thinking you know what?
33:01.740 --> 33:03.463
[SPEAKER_11]: This was this was a half century ago.
33:03.824 --> 33:05.968
[SPEAKER_11]: I'm thinking you went probably straight to the bleach.
33:06.607 --> 33:09.791
[SPEAKER_09]: I didn't, I don't remember what the process was, but I know it was taking care of.
33:10.072 --> 33:14.638
[SPEAKER_09]: And then I complained, I complained, and I remember that he was the triumph for me.
33:15.059 --> 33:19.365
[SPEAKER_09]: The triumph for me was when my mom said to Kathy, you should have just let him go.
33:20.086 --> 33:23.070
[SPEAKER_09]: You should have just let him go, because I think my mom- Like, let you in.
33:23.090 --> 33:28.778
[SPEAKER_09]: It might have been my mom, that the laundry was down there and my mom, she discovered it.
33:29.159 --> 33:29.499
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah.

[SPEAKER_09]: You don't know the movie.
35:36.612 --> 35:38.456

[SPEAKER_09]: So here it is.
35:50.019 --> 35:54.947
[SPEAKER_09]: I can go down very conservatively here $2 for a chick at a lot.
35:54.967 --> 35:57.010
[SPEAKER_09]: I'm trying to get my brother-in-law to watch lost in America.
35:57.030 --> 36:01.838
[SPEAKER_09]: The old movie that still holds up where they drop out of society and then she loses all their money.
36:01.858 --> 36:01.978
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah.
36:01.998 --> 36:02.699
[SPEAKER_09]: Very funny.
36:02.719 --> 36:07.527
[SPEAKER_09]: So as soon as Carlos says that to me, I'm upstairs in the loft.
36:08.114 --> 36:15.285
[SPEAKER_09]: And the law, which always manages to stay cool, comfortable 89 degrees, no matter what the weather is outside.
36:15.526 --> 36:16.968

36:25.951 --> 36:29.356
[SPEAKER_09]: happy happy going crazy baby.
36:29.737 --> 36:42.137
[SPEAKER_09]: So she says this to me, I immediately go into the bathroom and grab a towel because my method of securing a bird is to throw a towel on it and the base birds having none of them.
36:42.117 --> 36:49.967
[SPEAKER_09]: We have a cheap little recliner cloth chair where this room is.
36:49.987 --> 36:54.733
[SPEAKER_09]: We've jammed the TV in there in our little tiny house and it rocks back and forth.
36:55.094 --> 36:56.575
[SPEAKER_09]: I'm not skilled to get there.
36:56.595 --> 37:00.360
[SPEAKER_09]: So can you get on that chair and throw the towel on the bird?
37:00.741 --> 37:04.125
[SPEAKER_09]: So Carla is trying to place
37:04.105 --> 37:05.026
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah, the towel.
37:05.046 --> 37:07.350
[SPEAKER_09]: I said, no, you're not going to be able to play.
37:07.410 --> 37:07.871
[SPEAKER_09]: Don't catch it.
37:07.891 --> 37:09.112
[SPEAKER_09]: The bird's not going to go here.
37:09.393 --> 37:11.296
[SPEAKER_09]: Put that over my head, so I can't see.
37:11.576 --> 37:13.419
[SPEAKER_09]: How big of a towel is this?
37:13.639 --> 37:14.380
[SPEAKER_09]: It's a towel.
37:14.600 --> 37:15.221
[SPEAKER_09]: Okay.
37:15.322 --> 37:15.622
[SPEAKER_09]: Okay.
37:15.642 --> 37:16.744
[SPEAKER_09]: So everybody said, do it.
37:17.044 --> 37:21.330
[SPEAKER_09]: So Carla, a tip say, said, no, Carla, you have to toss it.
37:21.651 --> 37:25.877
[SPEAKER_09]: And as she tries to toss it, she loses her balance in my wife.
37:25.857 --> 37:29.564
[SPEAKER_09]: who's extremely physically fit is going down.
37:29.604 --> 37:32.951
[SPEAKER_09]: She is going down and she's coming right towards me.
37:33.311 --> 37:34.854
[SPEAKER_09]: And then of course, whose fault is it?
37:35.155 --> 37:36.999
[SPEAKER_09]: It's me because I was being impatient.
37:37.019 --> 37:38.181
[SPEAKER_09]: I said, let's be impatient.
37:38.381 --> 37:39.543
[SPEAKER_09]: I was trying to get you through it.
37:39.564 --> 37:41.908

45:17.768 --> 45:18.169
[SPEAKER_09]: That's right.
45:18.369 --> 45:19.170
[SPEAKER_09]: We're gonna take a break.
45:25.630 --> 45:45.798
[SPEAKER_11]: Hello, it is me, your old buddy Rob, and we talked hockey a little bit during the poop parable previously on this program, but here's another hockey story, or hockey segment I should say, talking about concussion protocol in the NHL, and how it is sort of related to other major league sports.
45:45.858 --> 45:49.343
[SPEAKER_11]: The reason this comes up is this is long enough to go that
45:49.323 --> 46:03.874
[SPEAKER_11]: I think Michael, my god son, was about four years old and he was starting like mighty mites, hockey, if that makes sense, it's literally hockey for kids and you worry about kids when they're out there doing contact sports.
46:03.894 --> 46:08.344
[SPEAKER_11]: So we discuss it and of course because of TMLS we have a little fun with it.
46:08.324 --> 46:10.206
[SPEAKER_11]: Nothing disrespectful.
46:10.707 --> 46:11.428
[SPEAKER_11]: Thank you very much.
46:11.548 --> 46:15.292
[SPEAKER_11]: It's hockey right here on the best of the micromarish show.
46:15.312 --> 46:16.614
[SPEAKER_09]: This is not political.
46:16.754 --> 46:19.277
[SPEAKER_09]: This but this is a current event subject.
46:19.317 --> 46:31.512
[SPEAKER_09]: Okay, I'm watching real sports last night and this message goes out to Gary Bettman, commissioner of the NHL get on board with concussion protocol.
46:31.552 --> 46:33.074
[SPEAKER_09]: You dig.
46:33.094 --> 46:35.817
[SPEAKER_09]: Okay,
46:35.797 --> 46:56.523
[SPEAKER_09]: Oh, that's not okay and this is then these guys it doesn't matter what sport you play these guys are suffering the same injuries This is sport my kid is playing okay, and and I don't want hit I don't want Mrs. Omera to freak out and pull him out of hockey and when you see Some of the collisions that are on the ice in the NHL and you've got those bottles.
46:56.763 --> 47:02.530
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah Your gum is butters right hands by Kurt Brakingberry you can stack these collisions up
47:02.510 --> 47:21.531
[SPEAKER_09]: with any collision in the NFL and they are they're equal to if not worse based on head on head collisions and I have to say this I have to walk the walk and I for years I have never said this but if you need to remove fighting from the uh... what no
47:22.220 --> 47:24.847
[SPEAKER_05]: That is at the heart of the game.
47:24.867 --> 47:26.030
[SPEAKER_09]: No, it's not the heart of the game.
47:26.070 --> 47:27.153
[SPEAKER_09]: Heart of the game is scoring goals.
47:27.213 --> 47:30.482
[SPEAKER_05]: But the no, the fight is the, oh, that is.
47:31.304 --> 47:33.430
[SPEAKER_05]: Well, people, that's why you have an enforcer.
47:33.490 --> 47:34.673
[SPEAKER_05]: You taught me that.
47:34.954 --> 47:38.102
[SPEAKER_09]: I know, but the fact is that it's.
47:38.082 --> 47:40.245
[SPEAKER_09]: brain injury and it is a sport.
47:40.405 --> 47:41.787
[SPEAKER_11]: But they can build equipment.
47:42.788 --> 47:43.289
[SPEAKER_09]: Don't do this.
47:43.349 --> 47:44.170
[SPEAKER_09]: Don't please.
47:44.330 --> 47:44.771
[SPEAKER_09]: Okay.
47:44.791 --> 47:45.432
[SPEAKER_06]: Please.
47:45.452 --> 47:45.872
[SPEAKER_11]: How about this?
47:46.113 --> 47:47.795
[SPEAKER_06]: I'm really being serious.
47:47.895 --> 47:49.617
[SPEAKER_06]: First off, but they can build equipment.
47:49.677 --> 47:50.358
[SPEAKER_06]: Mike, Mike.
47:50.378 --> 47:51.980
[SPEAKER_06]: To let them absorb the blows to that.
47:52.000 --> 47:53.522
[SPEAKER_06]: Well, I mean, you do not remember.
47:53.542 --> 47:54.283
[SPEAKER_06]: They're called helmets.
47:54.343 --> 47:59.871
[SPEAKER_11]: Do you remember at WJFK, we had a helmet, and we took turns putting it on and hitting each other on the head.
48:00.051 --> 48:02.194
[SPEAKER_09]: I mean, it still affects your balance.
48:02.214 --> 48:04.056
[SPEAKER_09]: They're all wearing helmets when they get hit.
48:04.036 --> 48:06.059
[SPEAKER_09]: I have a solution, right?
48:06.159 --> 48:07.601
[SPEAKER_05]: The husband involved calling Carrie?
48:07.741 --> 48:08.142
[SPEAKER_05]: No.
48:08.162 --> 48:08.462
[SPEAKER_05]: Okay.
48:08.603 --> 48:09.384
[SPEAKER_05]: The hockey.
48:09.704 --> 48:11.006
[SPEAKER_05]: The hockey gloves, right?
48:11.166 --> 48:11.527
[SPEAKER_05]: Globs.
48:11.987 --> 48:13.049
[SPEAKER_05]: The gloves.
48:13.069 --> 48:14.010
[SPEAKER_05]: Globs.
48:14.091 --> 48:18.317
[SPEAKER_05]: As soon as the enforcers are about to fight, they give him the cartoon one.
48:18.377 --> 48:21.421
[SPEAKER_05]: Oh, like Bob Hope, that you see a net security event.
48:21.762 --> 48:23.124
[SPEAKER_02]: That's how they fight.
48:23.204 --> 48:24.145
[SPEAKER_05]: Hey, I want to test.
48:24.165 --> 48:24.846
[SPEAKER_05]: On Skates.
48:24.826 --> 48:25.647
[SPEAKER_05]: Like who's here?
48:25.727 --> 48:30.892
[SPEAKER_05]: Sugar Ray Leonard isn't he wild and the weights on the cartoon size gloves It's gonna be a rockers.
48:30.912 --> 48:37.318
[SPEAKER_09]: You think you bring me Oscar You know and Rob along for the sports duck station Same rocker.
48:37.438 --> 48:37.838
[SPEAKER_09]: You can't.
48:37.878 --> 48:38.118
[SPEAKER_09]: Why?
48:38.819 --> 48:39.039
[SPEAKER_09]: What?
48:39.239 --> 48:46.426
[SPEAKER_05]: Okay, I'll break you news Mike break the news A big shout out to listener Witton whose wife was here yesterday visiting.
48:46.867 --> 48:47.807
[SPEAKER_05]: Oh, yeah, hello.
48:48.268 --> 48:48.608
[SPEAKER_05]: Hi.
48:48.828 --> 48:50.510
[SPEAKER_05]: Yes She said where's Mike?
48:50.550 --> 48:51.751
[SPEAKER_05]: I said Michael is in Florida right.
48:51.771 --> 48:52.352
[SPEAKER_05]: It's right on.
48:52.412 --> 48:53.753
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah, I don't know
48:53.733 --> 49:01.845
[SPEAKER_09]: anyway, they've got to be aware of all contact sports that these young men are getting hurt and might be affected.
49:01.865 --> 49:16.367
[SPEAKER_09]: Why is the NHL, you know, I mean, how can you feel like what the it's what the NFL did first, it's how they played it first and they're just behind the curve on this and yeah, they're denied they're in denial about it, but you look at the head can collision.
49:16.387 --> 49:21.394
[SPEAKER_05]: Who's that candy ass from the pens that stayed out forever for a
49:21.374 --> 49:23.217
[SPEAKER_05]: number one people save some for bad now.
49:23.237 --> 49:24.639
[SPEAKER_05]: We're questioning why.
49:25.260 --> 49:26.201
[SPEAKER_05]: I don't think so.
49:26.261 --> 49:26.501
[SPEAKER_05]: Okay.
49:26.521 --> 49:27.162
[SPEAKER_05]: Just check out.
49:27.243 --> 49:30.307
[SPEAKER_05]: But no, I remember when Sidney Crosby made a big deal.
49:30.467 --> 49:32.610
[SPEAKER_05]: And for almost a year, he was out.
49:33.091 --> 49:33.912
[SPEAKER_05]: The whole season.
49:34.032 --> 49:41.323
[SPEAKER_09]: Well, they, the thing about concussion protocol, and I learned this from watching a little of this documentary last night is that.
49:41.303 --> 49:51.114
[SPEAKER_09]: the recovery process is almost as important as you know preventing these injuries if they're going to happen inevitably.
49:51.194 --> 49:53.396
[SPEAKER_09]: Now the fact is, there it is, I said it again.
49:59.063 --> 50:05.590
[SPEAKER_09]: When you get a guy that has a head on head collision or shoulder to head or banks is
50:05.738 --> 50:10.164
[SPEAKER_09]: It's extremely important to take him out of the game and give him the proper amount of recovery time.
50:10.224 --> 50:12.567
[SPEAKER_09]: That's the initial sign of it has to be done right away.
50:12.628 --> 50:12.968
[SPEAKER_09]: Right.
50:13.268 --> 50:15.271
[SPEAKER_09]: That's that it helps the situation.
50:15.872 --> 50:22.301
[SPEAKER_09]: And I just don't want to see based on our diversions that we like like football and hockey any of these sports.
50:22.541 --> 50:30.953
[SPEAKER_09]: If we have the science and we have the knowledge that this is eventually going to make a 40 year old man put a shotgun in his mouth and pull the trigger.
50:30.933 --> 50:56.738
[SPEAKER_09]: I think we have to do well everything we can as human beings and in 2018 we've got God, we got to get our you like the movie because you we're this isn't gladiator man No, I mean I ask you a serious question because you are the one that has been and I am serious about How can you just your entire life you understand the game you understand this part of that But here's I probably got a concussion myself back in high school when I had my head down and I hit probably
50:56.718 --> 51:00.185
[SPEAKER_09]: one of the biggest guys in the Connecticut Valley Conference guy.
51:00.405 --> 51:05.735
[SPEAKER_09]: I remember his last name was Kennedy and he was high school student.
51:05.755 --> 51:10.604
[SPEAKER_09]: He was using him and head down and I went down and you know how you lose your breath that you fall and get your back.
51:10.865 --> 51:12.027
[SPEAKER_09]: I think it was maybe a concussion.
51:12.047 --> 51:17.477
[SPEAKER_09]: I was just I was out for a little bit and then I woke up and these guys it happens multiple times during
51:17.457 --> 51:22.184
[SPEAKER_11]: When you talk about, you know, maybe if we eliminate fighting, that would be a step and it would.
51:22.204 --> 51:23.967
[SPEAKER_09]: Well, that's, but it's just headblows.
51:23.987 --> 51:35.726
[SPEAKER_11]: You're, you're getting blows to the head when you're like boxing, but isn't the game based on, I mean, just the fact that you're on skates and you're on ice and you're fighting for the same little disc, you're gonna, you're going to collide.
51:35.746 --> 51:44.359
[SPEAKER_09]: You're going to, you're going to, you're going to, you're going to, you're going to, you're going to, you're going to, you're going to, you're going to, you're going to, you're going to, you're going to, you're going to, you're going to, you're going to, you're going to, you're going to, you're going to, you're going to, you're going to, you're going to, you
51:44.457 --> 51:51.256
[SPEAKER_11]: As in fuck you Oscar, no, you've done it, you've done it, you've done it every effort to do it.
51:51.918 --> 51:54.144
[SPEAKER_09]: Guys still get concussions right in the NFL.
51:54.405 --> 51:56.531
[SPEAKER_09]: Guys will still get concussions in the NHL.
51:56.832 --> 51:59.479
[SPEAKER_09]: You just re, you eliminate.
51:59.459 --> 52:03.162
[SPEAKER_09]: the chances of this happening is frequently minimized.
52:03.183 --> 52:05.064
[SPEAKER_09]: It's like, yeah, you minimally try to look to that.
52:05.084 --> 52:11.791
[SPEAKER_09]: And also, then you're also, I'm going to do that if the commissioner of the NHL is denying that it ever has technology and science will get us there.
52:12.211 --> 52:12.631
[SPEAKER_05]: I hope so.
52:12.752 --> 52:16.875
[SPEAKER_05]: But if you look at your modern, I think Jermic wire was on for some reason.
52:16.895 --> 52:23.402
[SPEAKER_05]: I thought Tom Cruise had died for a day because every Tom Cruise Christmas movie was on AMC for some reason.
52:23.422 --> 52:25.463
[SPEAKER_09]: I was like, oh my gosh, because he's got a movie coming out.
52:25.483 --> 52:26.785
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, that's all I was, right?
52:27.005 --> 52:29.247
[SPEAKER_05]: Right, that's what you see.
52:29.227 --> 52:46.091
[SPEAKER_05]: The Jerry McGuire glamorizes, essentially that concussion protocol, not the protocol, but the concussion, because at the end of that movie, you have Cuba good in junior sitting there laying down, getting knocked out, and then getting up and dancing, right?
52:46.111 --> 52:46.251
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.
52:46.752 --> 52:57.006
[SPEAKER_05]: And going back into the game, and then getting a multi-million dollar contract,
52:56.986 --> 53:18.049
[SPEAKER_09]: science and knowledge and all of these things change the way we look at our sports and everything else in life and I really, really think that I was stunned that they especially with the big daddy league, the NHL, the NFL, accepting the reality of this traumatic brain injury.
53:18.029 --> 53:23.615
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, but we don't know, you know, well, they're obviously using the same playbook because it took the NFL for ever to do it.
53:23.876 --> 53:31.524
[SPEAKER_11]: They took they made a major motion picture that I still feel that somehow the NFL quashed because we all saw it in a theater, but then it was gone.
53:31.605 --> 53:32.766
[SPEAKER_11]: No, no, no, no one talked about it.
53:32.786 --> 53:33.347
[SPEAKER_05]: They're still looking.
53:33.367 --> 53:34.428
[SPEAKER_05]: Look, they're still an issue.
53:34.448 --> 53:35.469
[SPEAKER_05]: They're still working on it.
53:35.529 --> 53:38.673
[SPEAKER_05]: At least there's a protocol in the NFL.
53:39.013 --> 53:42.076
[SPEAKER_05]: If you watch modern day soccer, Premier League soccer.
53:42.097 --> 53:47.783
[SPEAKER_05]: And I know this is, you know, not, this is the most, this is the South,
53:47.763 --> 53:50.629
[SPEAKER_09]: But if you want some of them, they also have head injury.
53:50.809 --> 53:53.234
[SPEAKER_05]: They have some of the players now wear helmets.
53:53.955 --> 53:58.985
[SPEAKER_09]: Like saw helmets because the heading of the soccer ball has been known to cause it.
53:59.165 --> 54:01.410
[SPEAKER_09]: Or the goal is bumping heads.
54:01.430 --> 54:03.614
[SPEAKER_08]: Yeah, but it's so simple when you think about this.
54:04.375 --> 54:07.020
[SPEAKER_09]: And look, it's great that we have diversions.
54:07.181 --> 54:08.704
[SPEAKER_09]: It's great that we love sports.
54:08.824 --> 54:09.906
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah.
54:09.886 --> 54:16.394
[SPEAKER_09]: Oops, I caught myself, but you have to realize that's another one that I'm going to have a nervous break.
54:16.454 --> 54:17.956
[SPEAKER_09]: No, my God, you're doing great.
54:17.976 --> 54:18.557
[SPEAKER_09]: You got this.
54:18.597 --> 54:19.078
[SPEAKER_09]: You got this.
54:19.178 --> 54:25.406
[SPEAKER_09]: With traumatic brain injury, we don't need it in these sports to enjoy it.
54:25.426 --> 54:26.527
[SPEAKER_09]: I think that's the plan I want.
54:26.748 --> 54:37.902
[SPEAKER_09]: And if I'm saying that, a guy that for years and years said I like old school, I hate the people that bitch about fighting in the NHL, if I can come around on that, you can come around on that
54:37.882 --> 54:58.641
[SPEAKER_09]: And I'd like to enjoy sports with the knowledge that these guys at the end of their career are not going to be in a situation where their neurons are so messed up that they end up doing damage to themselves or they just die in general it's terrible if you take it one step further you don't need that as the example being said for the youth of today that that they need to do.
54:58.621 --> 55:01.625
[SPEAKER_09]: This comes down to one word, this comes down to empathy.
55:01.845 --> 55:10.276
[SPEAKER_09]: This is just empathizing with our fellow human beings and enjoying their athletic prowess and enjoying the fact, he still have a real tough hit out there.
55:10.336 --> 55:10.517
[SPEAKER_09]: Sure.
55:10.537 --> 55:12.559
[SPEAKER_09]: You can still check guys off the puck.
55:12.579 --> 55:25.236
[SPEAKER_09]: You can do so much, and I know the sport, but when I've got a four year old who is starting out and playing the sport, I don't wanna have him in a situation that if we can avoid injuries to his brain,
55:25.216 --> 55:34.229
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah, there's not, and then by the way, the NFL is doing this and little league football is doing a lot of parents that aren't having their kids play by soccer now.
55:34.249 --> 55:42.682
[SPEAKER_09]: I don't know how the chips are going to fall with Mrs. O'Maro with this when she finds out about the fact that this particular sport can cause brain injury as well.
55:42.702 --> 55:45.626
[SPEAKER_05]: So I just wanted to say that you might start hitting themselves.
55:45.746 --> 55:46.988
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah, they're not hitting completely with it.
55:46.968 --> 55:49.931
[SPEAKER_09]: But I saw some don't he's fine for a couple of years.
55:50.231 --> 56:15.878
[SPEAKER_11]: I saw some pretty wicked hits and some bad injuries of you know at the varsity high school football level and I'm wondering if in 20 years Is there gonna be high school football and you know because you know because I'm really curious and you have to look at these sports And so you're saying that the kids want to get little guys in the lighting and there's good later The theater people got a occasional sex
56:17.410 --> 56:18.573
[SPEAKER_11]: with themselves.
56:18.713 --> 56:19.555
[SPEAKER_11]: So was it gone?
56:19.876 --> 56:23.686
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, they involved collisions with the sat.
56:25.210 --> 56:28.939
[SPEAKER_11]: I'm colliding with my hand.
56:29.493 --> 56:45.856
[SPEAKER_09]: I think you have to, if you've got a major sports league that makes all their money on this particular sport, they have to take the lead on, yeah, sign of financing the technology that's going to prevent and how the companies are already getting there.
56:46.117 --> 56:47.659
[SPEAKER_05]: They're evolving their helmets.
56:48.720 --> 56:53.106
[SPEAKER_11]: Is it true that the soccer helmets, the soccer helmets that they wear that they look like real hair?
56:53.807 --> 56:54.268
[SPEAKER_11]: No.
56:55.109 --> 56:56.812
[SPEAKER_09]: But they look like no series.
56:56.832 --> 56:57.674
[SPEAKER_09]: They're very delightful.
56:57.714 --> 57:00.219
[SPEAKER_05]: But they look like Mario brother character helmets.
57:00.299 --> 57:04.507
[SPEAKER_05]: If you have to look at that, like they look, if it's the first time I saw this is that.
57:04.547 --> 57:05.429
[SPEAKER_05]: Is that okay?
57:05.449 --> 57:06.391
[SPEAKER_05]: Is he riding the short bus?
57:06.471 --> 57:07.412
[SPEAKER_05]: It's happening.
57:07.433 --> 57:09.476
[SPEAKER_09]: Can I ask you a technical question about this?
57:09.857 --> 57:15.548
[SPEAKER_09]: That doesn't that somehow give a player an advantage for heading the ball?
57:15.528 --> 57:26.493
[SPEAKER_05]: Well, it's like if there is a mostly element of the goalies where this type of helmet, okay, because the goalies are going up and it's Goly again, they can use their hands only player on the field.
57:26.694 --> 57:34.752
[SPEAKER_05]: They can use their hands No, but put the but when the headers come in or somebody's trying to head the ball and you're going up for the ball at the same time collision happen all the time
57:34.951 --> 57:36.974
[SPEAKER_09]: with a winner and a goal.
57:36.994 --> 57:41.181
[SPEAKER_09]: So if the goal is got the helmet and the winner doesn't, that's a little to all these sports.
57:41.521 --> 57:51.256
[SPEAKER_09]: I just want to see the major professional leagues get on board because they've got the money to put into the research and it can prevent these injuries at all levels of the sport.
57:51.377 --> 57:52.318
[SPEAKER_05]: So tennis.
57:52.298 --> 58:02.520
[SPEAKER_05]: For example, right, let the girls skirt be shorter like enough with this non and why do we need skirts at all Bring the bitch back into ladies golf.
58:02.580 --> 58:05.546

[SPEAKER_11]: Would you like to hear a little more of course?
58:19.138 --> 58:24.691
[SPEAKER_11]: The final segment today is so easy to introduce because it's just one sentence.
58:26.134 --> 58:29.241
[SPEAKER_11]: Mike realizes he's pathetic.
58:30.065 --> 58:33.750
[SPEAKER_11]: Nice, on the best of the micro-marish show.
58:33.770 --> 58:38.576
[SPEAKER_09]: I always suspected I was a little pathetic, but now I think I've confirmed really.
58:38.756 --> 58:40.198
[SPEAKER_09]: I am truly pathetic.
58:40.498 --> 58:43.142
[SPEAKER_09]: I wasn't always pathetic.
58:43.242 --> 58:49.049
[SPEAKER_09]: I always thought that there was a day where I thought I kind of lived a life.
58:49.069 --> 58:54.095
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah, I thought that I got around and did fun things and was active, I got to be honest.
58:54.135 --> 58:57.760
[SPEAKER_09]: There was more when I was up in the DC area and when I was a younger man.
58:57.740 --> 58:59.703

[SPEAKER_09]: This is just my life and what my life has become.
59:09.940 --> 59:10.381
[SPEAKER_09]: You're right.
59:10.861 --> 59:11.442
[SPEAKER_09]: I'm not old.

[SPEAKER_09]: Really pathetic.
59:21.236 --> 59:26.782
[SPEAKER_09]: I think probably we're talking about the way and by the way, the subject is the way we live our lives.
59:27.503 --> 59:30.046
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah, Rob's been married a lot longer than I have.
59:30.226 --> 59:31.187
[SPEAKER_09]: Even if you add them all up.

[SPEAKER_09]: I'm mad at the divorce.
59:54.841 --> 59:59.809

59:59.789 --> 01:00:21.510
[SPEAKER_09]: goes out and does the Tuscarara high school and even though we went one might make a case for that being pathetic it's not it's it's why it is kids it's it's it's being community about it's the type of thing if Rob did that Rob if Rob wanted ever run for Congress you know they could say well he also did the announcing at the you know so he helped out the show when he didn't need for my inevitable congressional run Mike

[SPEAKER_09]: That in two block art, that's right, but I have to say this as I digress once again, would you not, would you not feel that you're educating yourself by producing the political persuasion show?
01:00:35.588 --> 01:00:36.129
[SPEAKER_09]: I believe not.

[SPEAKER_09]: It's making your way back as you wish you went up to DC for a visit and she's coming back and the fact is that.
01:00:56.675 --> 01:00:59.942
[SPEAKER_09]: Oh, there it is the fact is get it later in the show.
01:01:00.202 --> 01:01:05.553

[SPEAKER_11]: That my bastards
01:01:06.715 --> 01:01:12.585

01:01:13.126 --> 01:01:17.855
[SPEAKER_11]: It became, I became pathetic when Carrie and I moved in to Big Daddy's house.

[SPEAKER_11]: We saw some of the pre-production of that between the micro-marisho and political Persuasion's were you actually a you fought it.
01:01:42.157 --> 01:01:47.086
[SPEAKER_09]: He fought the same had the old one Now Pony walked me through it and it was stunningly efficient.
01:01:47.106 --> 01:01:54.340
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, I mean Pony was just Pony Pony flipped over there the blue wire
01:01:54.320 --> 01:02:01.629

01:02:03.431 --> 01:02:12.682
[SPEAKER_09]: And then I got back home, and I said, what to do, and I just wasted away all day long, like surfing in that.
01:02:12.702 --> 01:02:18.369
[SPEAKER_09]: And then I decided that I would go to the grocery store, and buy some steam and a bag piece and carrots.
01:02:18.910 --> 01:02:20.952
[SPEAKER_11]: Oh, so you don't even have to drift into your ditch.
01:02:20.932 --> 01:02:22.394
[SPEAKER_09]: and have a veggie patty.
01:02:22.414 --> 01:02:24.578
[SPEAKER_09]: And that's what I had for dinner.
01:02:25.038 --> 01:02:26.160
[SPEAKER_09]: But that's your choice.

[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah.
01:02:26.400 --> 01:02:27.282
[SPEAKER_09]: But I'm lying about that.
01:02:27.302 --> 01:02:29.024
[SPEAKER_09]: I actually bought a little sirloin steak.
01:02:29.104 --> 01:02:29.846
[SPEAKER_09]: I went now.
01:02:29.866 --> 01:02:30.627
[SPEAKER_09]: A vegan steak.
01:02:31.268 --> 01:02:33.912
[SPEAKER_09]: And then I went to bed at 9 o'clock at night.
01:02:34.533 --> 01:02:35.775
[SPEAKER_09]: Okay, that's so I'm pathetic.
01:02:35.855 --> 01:02:36.396
[SPEAKER_09]: I'm pathetic.
01:02:36.456 --> 01:02:38.519
[SPEAKER_05]: No, you're in your own routine.
01:02:38.779 --> 01:02:39.721
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah, that's it.
01:02:39.741 --> 01:02:40.983
[SPEAKER_09]: Now, I went to bed at 9.
01:02:41.083 --> 01:02:42.585
[SPEAKER_09]: I went to sleep at 11.
01:02:42.565 --> 01:02:43.306
[SPEAKER_09]: What did you do?
01:02:43.787 --> 01:02:45.589
[SPEAKER_09]: Do I want to know how you feel the two hours?
01:02:45.830 --> 01:02:47.933
[SPEAKER_09]: No, you can because I didn't even do that.
01:02:48.093 --> 01:03:11.087
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah, and that that might be Yeah, you know, if you're talking about yeah, that would be that and then In between I occupied by time reading Reading social media, which is becoming more and more toxic to be personally where I just can't Stand I I it actually ruins my life when I read what about getting out and
01:03:11.067 --> 01:03:14.511
[SPEAKER_05]: going out and doing because I because that's that's over.
01:03:14.551 --> 01:03:15.773
[SPEAKER_09]: Those days are over.

01:03:30.851 --> 01:03:37.259
[SPEAKER_09]: But if I am solo, by the way, 15, 20 years ago, that would have been that would have been my number one thing.
01:03:37.439 --> 01:03:40.703
[SPEAKER_09]: I would have gotten over the show and gone to the local
01:03:40.683 --> 01:03:41.527
[SPEAKER_09]: you know, yeah, sure.
01:03:41.607 --> 01:03:42.390

[SPEAKER_09]: I don't doubt I could probably with some guys have a good time at a place like that.
01:04:29.362 --> 01:04:34.587
[SPEAKER_09]: But the fact is that, you know, walking in a loan at, you know, and this is where Our loan is the best.
01:04:34.907 --> 01:04:37.049
[SPEAKER_05]: But if you're a pro, you're a mystery.
01:04:37.069 --> 01:04:37.530
[SPEAKER_05]: You're a mystery.
01:04:37.690 --> 01:04:37.950
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.

[SPEAKER_05]: I remember good guys.
01:04:39.111 --> 01:04:47.899
[SPEAKER_09]: I remember good guys when I was in college, and I would see the guys that were 70 years old that would walk into those joints, and it was disgusting.
01:04:47.879 --> 01:04:49.683
[SPEAKER_09]: I know money right there.
01:04:50.023 --> 01:04:50.364
[SPEAKER_11]: That's right.
01:04:50.384 --> 01:05:07.137
[SPEAKER_11]: It was Mr. Rockefeller sitting at the bar with all of his rubber bear and oil money Mr. Carnegie would like a blonde over at the right of the state and by the way if you go to the right place It's a classy place that I read a troll last night on online that says
01:05:07.117 --> 01:05:13.986
[SPEAKER_09]: The fact is, Mike has many verbal crutches, and I began to, do you know, and I, I don't care if they know.
01:05:14.207 --> 01:05:16.610
[SPEAKER_09]: I think it was a troll went to the person's pay.
01:05:16.630 --> 01:05:16.750
[SPEAKER_09]: Sure.
01:05:17.111 --> 01:05:20.575
[SPEAKER_09]: Didn't see a lot of information, which indicates a troll, but I will tell you this.
01:05:21.016 --> 01:05:22.918
[SPEAKER_09]: I really, really do that.
01:05:23.079 --> 01:05:24.040
[SPEAKER_09]: I don't care who knows it.
01:05:24.320 --> 01:05:25.662
[SPEAKER_09]: That gets into my head.
01:05:26.183 --> 01:05:31.770
[SPEAKER_09]: That gets into my head more than anything anyone could say to me, especially on days like today.
01:05:32.351 --> 01:05:33.112
[SPEAKER_09]: Days like today.
01:05:33.132 --> 01:05:34.474

[SPEAKER_09]: She was moving some stuff down here and so she's she's coming back home.
01:05:47.789 --> 01:05:56.118
[SPEAKER_09]: And I can't wait to see her and I'll be glad when she gets back because it used to be there was a day when solo mic.
01:05:56.238 --> 01:05:58.681
[SPEAKER_09]: Oh, and you know, it's compounded by what I talked about yesterday.
01:05:58.721 --> 01:06:00.202
[SPEAKER_09]: The the boys are that are.
01:06:00.222 --> 01:06:01.744

[SPEAKER_11]: That's a ninety-six hours.
01:06:03.165 --> 01:06:03.906
[SPEAKER_09]: That's a problem.
01:06:04.126 --> 01:06:07.990
[SPEAKER_09]: But here's the thing, they're going to die younger than I am because they're killing their livers, right?
01:06:08.010 --> 01:06:12.714
[SPEAKER_05]: I was explaining to Shane that you don't have any friends and why you wouldn't golf with Rob or I.
01:06:13.655 --> 01:06:16.318
[SPEAKER_05]: And she was up here briefly.
01:06:16.698 --> 01:06:22.003
[SPEAKER_05]: And Rob said, yeah, he said that he wouldn't play golf with us because we don't know how to play golf.
01:06:22.043 --> 01:06:23.985
[SPEAKER_05]: And she goes, well, why do you have to not to play golf?

01:06:37.225 --> 01:06:50.293
[SPEAKER_09]: Oh, no, the fact is, you know, I said the fact is it's a regular man I got myself there's that guy that's going to write the time code down when I caught it if the alarm I'm hitting it on myself.
01:06:52.552 --> 01:06:53.974
[SPEAKER_05]: We don't like beating you up, Mike.
01:06:53.994 --> 01:06:54.915

[SPEAKER_05]: Don't you wish those big amazing episodes.
01:06:57.358 --> 01:07:03.285

01:07:03.986 --> 01:07:05.247
[SPEAKER_09]: Who's pathetic now?

[SPEAKER_09]: on pay per view and I just couldn't make it I got no and when it says buy for sixty nine and I said no you're you're you're force feet well here's what here's the way I look at that you are force feeding me
01:07:51.277 --> 01:07:55.705
[SPEAKER_09]: this movie to buy when I want to rent this academy award.
01:07:55.745 --> 01:08:01.556
[SPEAKER_11]: If I wanted what if I said rented I rented for 1699 is it the mental block that you're buying it?
01:08:02.057 --> 01:08:09.792
[SPEAKER_09]: I don't think I would have rented it for 1699 they're telling you what they're trying this is the movie industry compensating for Netflix and Hulu.
01:08:09.772 --> 01:08:10.032
[SPEAKER_09]: Right.
01:08:10.072 --> 01:08:16.964
[SPEAKER_09]: All the other services and they're trying to force feed you to purchase the film and it's like you're saying it like it's it's it.
01:08:17.144 --> 01:08:17.905
[SPEAKER_09]: I'm right about this.
01:08:18.286 --> 01:08:22.773
[SPEAKER_09]: They're force feeding us to buy a movie ticket when we didn't want we want to rent it.
01:08:22.953 --> 01:08:23.254
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah.
01:08:23.274 --> 01:08:24.336
[SPEAKER_09]: That's why we didn't see it.
01:08:24.456 --> 01:08:25.998
[SPEAKER_11]: It is roughly the cost of buy.
01:08:26.079 --> 01:08:28.442
[SPEAKER_11]: It's roughly the cost of two movie tickets.
01:08:28.623 --> 01:08:30.886
[SPEAKER_05]: I bought the same as going out to a movie with your day.
01:08:30.926 --> 01:08:31.487

[SPEAKER_05]: You are pouring your cash into it.
01:08:40.119 --> 01:08:44.263
[SPEAKER_11]: Well, you should get a muffin basket from the acquire live in the city.
01:08:44.624 --> 01:08:47.487
[SPEAKER_05]: It costs $20 just to go to the movies if you're lucky.
01:08:47.507 --> 01:08:53.613
[SPEAKER_09]: You understand my point when you buy these, but you're, this is the movie industry's new trick.
01:08:53.633 --> 01:08:56.836
[SPEAKER_09]: I get to give you a smile or money to put it to the market, right?
01:08:56.916 --> 01:09:01.181
[SPEAKER_05]: No, Mike, we worked too hard not to earn just a preview.
01:09:01.361 --> 01:09:03.403

[SPEAKER_09]: Well, it was the it was the the age of DVD so I was not getting them digitally I was getting little codes Yeah, down that was probably five years ago and by the way, I'll all I have to do is so you make good But your sag situation is what stop you from buying the sag if my dues were current and I have not made them current Then I would be getting these movies.
