Can you really trust what the government is telling you? That's the burning question we tackle as we dissect the recent, suspiciously low national crime rates and eyebrow-raising unemployment figures. We delve into the murky waters of government propaganda, media bias, and the erosion of trust in investigative journalism, spurred by the polarizing era of Trump's presidency.

Switching gears, we take you on the emotional journey of Tuttle's 88-year-old mom who finds herself a prisoner in her own home due to her crippling fear of COVID-19. This heartfelt story sets the stage for lighter, laugh-out-loud moments as we recount hilarious childhood antics and social faux pas that still haunt us today. We also tease our latest brainwave for a movie idea, proving that inspiration can strike in the most mundane places.

We wrap things up with reflections on leaving long-term careers and how it affects our sense of self, especially for men who often tie their identities to their jobs. From the absurdity of a "White History Month" to amusing neighbor interactions and trading tips inspired by true crime podcasts, our conversations are as diverse as they are engaging.

Tackling everything from underrated Hollywood beauties to holiday merchandise excitement, this episode promises a rollercoaster of emotions, laughs, and thought-provoking discussions.

Speaker 1:

Welcome to the Tuttle Kline Show.

Speaker 2:

What are you doing, man?

Speaker 3:

Looking at your red shirt.

Speaker 2:

You're a hole.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, I'm still getting used to you not wearing all black all the time.

Speaker 2:

I know Things change a little bit, but it's still like 95 black yeah, I would expect it to be. I'm like the nba. That's not racist, that's just a raw stat it's the the stats. Speaking of stats, I just saw I was watching the news, kev Okay, and a little blurb came on there Crime, national crime, is down last month for the first time in years I had heard that. You heard that too.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, I did actually.

Speaker 2:

I was thinking, though and maybe I'm jaded I was thinking it's because everything's already been stolen.

Speaker 3:

You know, now do they make the distinction though. Is it property crime, or is it violent crime? It's just everything. All crime across the board. Huh.

Speaker 2:

Across the board down last month for the first time and since like 2020 or something like that.

Speaker 3:

On a national average. I mean crime is still pretty rampant in Houston, right?

Speaker 2:

Well, crime is rampant anywhere and everywhere, yeah, and I don't believe any numbers that the government's churning out. They got busted last week because they'd been underreporting the unemployment stuff. I saw that too. There's just a bunch of fucking criminals. All of them are. I saw that too. There's just a bunch of fucking criminals.

Speaker 3:

All of them are. I know we usually don't start the. I know we usually don't start this quickly with our regular segments, but it plays right into my be honest for you.

Speaker 1:

Be honest.

Speaker 3:

Be honest, be honest. Do you believe anything the government tells you?

Speaker 2:

Absolutely not. You can't, you cannot. It's all propaganda. See, that's the one. But regardless of what you think of him, that's the one great thing about Trump is he has them so fucking out of their minds that he's exposed what the government and the government leaders and the media, who are basically just their puppets I mean it's all propaganda. Now, when we were young let me talk to the youngins right now they actually used to have journalism, investigative journalism, and they would go and bust big, powerful entities and organizations. That doesn't happen anymore. It's all propaganda.

Speaker 3:

There actually is a cool television program called Investigate TV and it's hosted by Lee Zurich and Tisha Powell, and it gets back to the roots of what journalism was. It's just presenting facts, telling stories, no opinion, no nothing.

Speaker 2:

Imagine that. I mean, you know, growing up, yeah, we had kind of a left-wing, you know lean, just a small little lean, and they tried to, you know, play it off when they were accused of it. Now it's just wide open.

Speaker 3:

Okay, now let me ask you something, because I know you're a big Trump fan and you just said that he riles the other side. When they do fact-check his speeches, they say he lies a lot.

Speaker 2:

Of course they have to.

Speaker 3:

Okay, so he's not lying, they're lying.

Speaker 2:

No, kev, they are. And everybody should have been on their toes when they realized for four years they never reported anything positive, that he had done Nothing, and that should immediately raise flags. And you know I was listening to Joe Rogan and Joe Rogan's a Democrat and he said that was a big thing for him is they have absolutely nothing good to report on him, so it's obviously slanted. Everything that they say is in question. It turns out out to be lies later and they never admit to it. You never see them say, hey, we got that wrong. Or you know they never do that right?

Speaker 2:

no, I know they never do that so yeah, I mean I I wouldn't kev the thing that the things that that uh trump cites in his speeches and everything like that and debate that. That's raw statistics, fact. Okay, you know, yeah, you know, I'm sure that he, you know, and he, he's, he's, he's an ego, he's a narcissist and I'm sure he fluffs up things a little bit, but I would believe him way before I would believe any of the the poor excuses for hairdos, haircuts that you see on your screen. They're just, they're straight up propaganda. They're not allowed to do anything but what's on the teleprompter. And that is big government. We control you. Listen to what we say. You can't think for yourselves. We are the facts and only the facts. I mean just that right there where they say hey, we're the fact checkers, we know the truth. You're telling us that you are omniscient, omnipresent, and you know the truth, you know you're God. Basically, they're saying we're God, so we can fact check everything.

Speaker 3:

Well, they can make or break a candidate. I mean, they're saying we're God, so we can fact check everything. Well, they, they can make or break a candidate. I mean they're kingmakers. I mean well, up until 2016. No, I mean, I had to ask that question because that is the common phrase that you hear around Donald Trump is he just lies?

Speaker 2:

But what you also see is they project everything they're doing on him, like that whole fucking Russian bullshit that was going on when he was president. They were the ones colluding with Russia. You know, anything that you see them project is shit that they're doing, that they're projecting there doing that, they're putting there, that, they're projecting there.

Speaker 3:

So, and and I don't want to make this all about politics, but because- we've gone here.

Speaker 2:

Did they create january 6th? Heck yeah, dude the fbi. It was an fbi false flag. Okay, look it up, fbi false flag. They were telling people go in, go in, go in. You know they, they thought the you people official, like people were telling them to go into the Capitol. You know, totally set up and they tried to bury that. You know they buried that in the bullshit hearings. I mean, it's a kind of complete FBI false flag, absolute, I'm glad I asked it.

Speaker 2:

I'm glad I asked and anything you see out there that's like it's Antifa, is dressed up as MAGA supporters and they're doing racist chants and Ku Klux Klan stuff. I mean it's all bullshit now it's all bullshit.

Speaker 3:

OK, well, speaking of bullshit and I don't want to taint your answer here, but that was my next. That was my next. Be honest, Be honest. Does the NFL really need preseason football?

Speaker 2:

Yeah, kev, the last 15 guys on the roster are pretty important. Okay, and you basically have 30 or 40 guys trying to be that last 15.

Speaker 3:

Okay.

Speaker 2:

So I mean they could probably do it. You know more on the down low. But why would they do that? Because it still makes a shit ton of money.

Speaker 3:

But then you look at what happened to the San Francisco 49ers in their last game of preseason Brock Purdy goes down with an injury.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 3:

Three of their other starters go down with an injury.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I mean essentially, and you want a preseason, because another thing about that and what you know, piggybacking, what you're saying about 49ers is you want to get your starters a little bit of a feel before it's go time. Ok, so because because a football season you got 17 games. It's just 17 games. Yeah, I mean, every week is important, every week's important in the NFL I mean in baseball you really don't need a spring training because you know you can spend the first month, you know, april getting into the groove.

Speaker 3:

Do you answer my question without even me having to ask it, why doesn't college have preseason football games? And that's because they don't have to make roster cuts? No, everybody that goes off for the team is on the team, so that answered that, so I didn't even need to ask it. Okay, cool, thank you, you're welcome.

Speaker 2:

Glad to help you Anything else.

Speaker 3:

No, those were the only two.

Speaker 2:

I have one Be honest what are your thoughts?

Speaker 3:

about someone who didn't wash their hands after using a public restroom. They should be punished harshly, very harsh, very harshly. Yeah, um, I mean, a night in jail wouldn't be too bad okay it's disgusting because I've always thought that I was like.

Speaker 2:

I've always said that I mean you're fucking dirty, nasty, you know, yeah, but but I never. I never said anything because, you know, you know, we we kind of had to keep our nose clean because we were kind of in the public eye, but the other day I actually just said something, did you really? Yeah, you just went pissed and walked straight out the door and before the door shut, I said, oh, go, spread those germs.

Speaker 3:

Because that's what they do.

Speaker 2:

And he pushed the door open and he said what? And I said why don't you fucking wash your hands, man?

Speaker 3:

Oh damn dude, Did he bow up.

Speaker 2:

No, he didn't bow up, dude, I'm going to wash his hands. Yeah, Uh no he rolled his eyes and walked away. Oh wow, yeah, but yeah, hey, again, strike that one up for, uh, you know, you're, you're, we're getting that age age you know we continue to get that age. Just, I just don't give a fuck, because all I was thinking was you know, this guy right here he could go and touch something and then my kids touch it, or something like that. Exactly, yeah, and and then you've. You've affected my kids. Yeah, you know.

Speaker 3:

A height of selfishness.

Speaker 2:

Which brings me to. You know, I had a long conversation with my mom yesterday. How old is Dottie? Dottie's? She's 88 now, kev. Wow, 88 years old so, and I feel bad for her. You know she lives in Palm Springs, okay, in California, uh-huh and you know they shoved the COVID up their ass there and she's just so worried about doing anything now at the age of 88. She said, you know, basically a death sentence she thinks, if she gets COVID.

Speaker 3:

Right, yeah, a death sentence.

Speaker 2:

She thinks if she gets COVID, right, yeah, so she wears, you know, mask and gloves and, you know, has people deliver and put it outside the door and she grabs it with a mask on and her gloves on and washes everything. I mean she's in that full fucking Howard Hughes mode man.

Speaker 3:

Oh, that's the way my mother-in-law was when it first started, you know, back in 2020, 2021. Now that has subsided, uh. But yeah, the the, the fear was always there at the beginning.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I just feel, I just feel bad because it has completely taken over. She's a prisoner, yeah she's. She's a prisoner in in california. Wow, yeah, that doesn't want to go anywhere. I mean, she used to be very active, you know she, I mean she. She even worked at this coffee shop into her mid eighties. No kidding, yeah, no, she, just you know. She. Just you know, yeah, she runs the, throw the trash out, you know, doesn't touch any. I mean it's. It reminds me of you.

Speaker 3:

I was ahead of my time. Yeah, you were before COVID kept.

Speaker 2:

was that guy?

Speaker 3:

Very much so.

Speaker 2:

Kev. I got another. Be honest, if we can do it, yeah, why not? Have you ever be honest? Have you ever picked your nose and ate it?

Speaker 3:

No, never have.

Speaker 2:

Come on, it's perfectly normal.

Speaker 3:

Never have, and I learned early on that you didn't do that, and the reason I learned that is because there was a young girl named karen on our bus and, uh, she used to do it all the time and the kids were merciless against her.

Speaker 2:

merciless, yeah, yeah, I was uh, yeah, you know, I, I and I'll tell you something a little later, an interesting story. But you know, there was a guy at the pool we were goofing around and I asked you know his? Uh, he saw like one of the little boys over there pick the nose and eat it, like probably four or five years old, yeah, and he's like, oh, that's disgusting, that's gross. Oh, that kid's gonna grow up be nasty dirt. And I was like I looked at him, I go well, you never picked your nose, ever, one time and ever, and ate it. And he's like, no, and I'm like you're, you're fucking lying, everybody's done that. And uh, you know, I look over at another guy, you did it, didn't you? He goes, yeah, oh, yeah. And then finally the guy admits to it yeah, maybe when I was five, six years old and I was like me, I've never done that. That's fucking gross. You guys are gross, that's sick. I've never done. You got. Well, I got up and left because I was like I can't hang with you guys.

Speaker 3:

But you know, I just I was kidding with of course, of course, yeah, no, I uh, unless I did it before I was three years old, which I could have, but no, to my memory, I have never done that.

Speaker 2:

Kev, I never did it for one reason, and one reason only, and that is. In kindergarten there was a guy who picked his nose and ate it like in one of the first three days of school, of school, and from that moment on, everywhere he went, he was called Nostril Nugget Lover, nostril Nugget Lover, and from what I've heard that this continued up until sophomore or junior year of high school until he moved.

Speaker 3:

Like I said, kids latch onto something, you can't escape it. Karen, that's it't escape it, karen, that's it. Karen, yeah, she put up with that all through high school.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, nnl, nnl, nostril Nugget Lover, and he was toast man. He was, he was toast. Now, in this day and age, you would use that as a brand and merchandise and stuff.

Speaker 3:

Absolutely. You would embrace that and make that. Yeah for sure.

Speaker 2:

You'd be like you'd get to about fourth or fifth grade and be like this shit isn't going away. How can I make some money? How can I?

Speaker 3:

monetize this For sure.

Speaker 2:

I heard he became, ended up being a really good athlete and everything like that, and people just could not let it go.

Speaker 3:

So he finally moved, uh to another school just imagine if he were like to become an olympic gold medalist and the gold booker I mean gold medal winner.

Speaker 2:

Yeah exactly, can't escape it, man nope, you can't you can't escape it, although audrey and jonas's mom kathy uh, she escaped, she in kindergarten. She pooped her pants in kindergarten. She escaped In kindergarten, she pooped her pants in kindergarten.

Speaker 3:

That's okay.

Speaker 2:

And she got away from it.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, look at her, that's okay.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, eventually, you know, come high school, the guys are going to go. Yeah, she shit herself. But that was 10 years ago. Come on, hey Kev, I had a movie idea. I want to run past you have. Have you started it? I have not got. Just, I was just taking out the trash and I'm, and I was walking out of the trash and it just hit. Just these these weird things just jump in my head uh-huh okay, here's, here's the idea.

Speaker 2:

Let me know what you think. Uh, you know it's about a. He's got a patient that's just getting so annoyed with people, just absolutely annoyed with people, that he told the psychiatrist you know, I just have thoughts of stabbing people that annoy the shit out of me, I just want to stab them out of me, I just want to stab him. So, you know, the psychiatrist's like, whoa, okay, you know, I better, I better go like completely 180 on this one and said, hey, you know what, anytime you have that thought and that feeling, um, just kill him with kindness, you know, you know, um. So the patient agreed and then he decided he was going to name his knife kindness and that would be the title of the movie kindness, kindness, yeah I love it and it just turns out to be a serial killer movie which we know sells big.

Speaker 2:

I mean, you do anything to sell a serial killer. You're going to get academy award. Yeah, you're going to get Academy Award. You're going to get some box office and good streaming numbers and shit like that because of our fascination with serial killers.

Speaker 3:

And trust me as somebody who has seen a psychiatrist regularly since 1995 and sees one for self-harm. That is one of the questions that they ask you Now is it self-harm or is it that you want to harm somebody else? I'm like no, it's just me. And they're like okay, because it would be radically different if you said you wanted to harm other people. I'm like I'm sure it would be.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, see, that's the one thing that I love about you, kev. Yeah, you're suicidal and have those thoughts and shit like that, but you're never one of these assholes who are like I got to kill other people before I off myself.

Speaker 3:

No, that makes no sense to me whatsoever. Absolutely no sense to me whatsoever.

Speaker 2:

Those are, those are the big assholes. I mean, it's like if you're, if you're fucking miserable, that's fine. Leave other people out of it.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, you're going to be a selfish dick anyway, but you don't got to be a selfish dick to 15 other families, you know? No, that's stupid, that's stupid.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, and I thought about your. I thought about your dad.

Speaker 3:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

When I thought, you know, because, for those unaware, Kevin's dad committed suicide back in 2005. Yeah, that's one thing I like about your dad is you know he didn't kill your mom? No, he didn't go, you know, because he's a postal worker too, right.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, he could have gone postal.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, he didn't grab a machine gun and just start shooting dogs and shooting people and then, you know, killed himself or waited for the police to arrive and death by cop. He just went down to the basement, got an extension cord and took care of his business. It was between him and himself, you know.

Speaker 3:

You know, honestly, one of the reasons why we think he did it is because he was no longer working for the post office.

Speaker 2:

He didn't have that. Yeah, a lot of people get that way man.

Speaker 3:

They pushed him out because of his age. They pushed him out, yeah, yeah, and he didn't have any self-worth.

Speaker 2:

I actually Kev one of our big listeners, a big fan of our show the entire time we were in Houston every so often sends me a message asking if I'm okay and everything okay. You know cause he's like hey man, you know cause? You were doing that for 26 years and you're not? Is everything okay with the heads? I'm like man. I'm better off than I ever was when I was doing that shit. Are you kidding me? I, yeah, I don't. I sleep in, I don't work for anyone. I mean, I'm great dude, I'm great.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, that's the lady that I talked to this week on the fuzzy mic. That is one of the things we talk about, because her husband committed suicide after he got out of the workforce and it becomes like our identity. What we do for a living, and she said it only is with guys, women don't care. What we do for a living, and she said it only is with guys, women don't care what they do for a living. They don't ever ask hey, what do you do? What's the first question we ask what do you do?

Speaker 2:

Yeah, and you said this to me. You were the first person I told, hey, man, they're not resigning me, I'm done. Today was my last show and the first thing you text it back go is. Trust me, you'll feel relief very soon. And as I was driving home, man, I was just like god, I'm so relieved, man, and I never thought for one second what am I going to do? Maybe because I already knew what I was going to do. Right, yeah, maybe that's it. Maybe, you know, because I, I I had a passion for for trading, and then you know futures trading and shit like that. So I already had a plan. I knew what I was going to do. Maybe that's it.

Speaker 3:

Well, you had that number one. Number two is the industry was not the same when we got out as it was when we got in. It just it wears on you, it was just not the same and so, yeah, I mean it was a blessing bro.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I didn't you know. I was like what are you talking about, dude? And then, seriously, I got on, uh, got on a six 10, uh on the loop and right when, right when I like passed the uh chimney rock on 59, I just felt this whole like relief washing over me. Yeah, I was like God man, I don't have to do that shit anymore.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, I just ran into a, a television personality here in Springfield yesterday. She retired after 30 years on the as on the air TV and I was like you know, do you miss it? And she goes. No, I'm like what don't you miss about it? And she goes. No, I'm like what don't you miss about it? The constant nagging and you're never good enough. And she's like that's a lot of it. Yeah, she said that's a lot of it. So she's selling houses now and making eight times more than she ever did.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, it was the same thing because, you know, shortly after me they let go of CJ in the afternoon. They let her go. Yeah, they let her go. Oh, I thought she left to go get married, oh, no, no, they let her go because the new manager wants to bring his own people in. Yeah, and they let her go. And I reached out and I said hey, I know you're feeling a sting right now, trust me, you will feel. And she just immediately got happy too, immediately. Take our word for it.

Speaker 3:

We lived it, I didn't know. They let her go. That's unfortunate. She was really cool.

Speaker 2:

Oh, one of the nicest people ever. Yeah, talented too, like like legitimately nice, and her, her and Seth have a new baby now.

Speaker 3:

That's what Trish told me.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, they have a new baby.

Speaker 3:

So yeah, seth her husband, you know he's a baseball coach and played, played some professional ball. I played for the thing. He played for the Italian national team too, didn't he? If there were a national team that he played for, it would be Italian.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, that's back when they had a national teams for softball and baseball. They don't have that shit anymore.

Speaker 3:

No, I think you're right, though he did play for them but they have break dancing anyway.

Speaker 2:

Kev, I, I, um, I, uh was in kroger and uh, I gotta tell you this story, um, and I'm walking past, uh, you know the service area, um, to get to produce, okay, and you, just you can hear there's this Karen. You know this typical middle-aged white woman just going off about a price discrepancy on what they advertised and what the price was now, you know this poor service manager just said hey, that expired. And it says even right here, it expired, was now. And you know this poor service manager just said hey, that expired. And it says even right here, it expired, expired yesterday, you know. So the computer automatically puts the price back to where it was and she's just freaking out it's, it's cab, maybe it's a buck.

Speaker 3:

18 oh, that much. Yeah, I thought it was like 15 cents.

Speaker 2:

She was outraged and just going crazy. And these two Hispanic dudes were over by the vending machines where the lotto cards are and everything like that and where you can pour. You know those places where you pour your change in and it gives you dollars. And one of them goes yeah, she's just mad, there's no white history month. And I'm laughing. I thought that was funny. Yeah, the guy was funny, but as I was walking, the produce it got me thinking. I was like you know what would white history month look like?

Speaker 2:

you know, what would it look like? It would probably just be like daily features of wall street ponzi schemers and military snipers, nfl kickers and oh, nfl kickers, although uh, reggie robey, uh was, uh was an african-american kicker, look how look, how far back you had to go.

Speaker 3:

Right, yeah, exactly.

Speaker 2:

It's like, it's like you know, dallas was asking me. He's like, hey, dad, who was the last white cornerback in the NFL and I had to think about, I had to look it up it was Seahorn Jason Seahorn from the Giants. Oh wow, that far back Last starting white, until some kid got drafted recently.

Speaker 3:

I would have wouldn't have been able to do that without looking it up. Yeah, Seahorn, he married Angie Harmon. Yes, he did. Are they still married?

Speaker 2:

I'm not sure. Good question, I don't know. I didn't go that far with it. Okay, see, the thing I like now is you don't even have to click on anything anymore. You can just Google something and it just immediately shows up your question right there how the karen episode end.

Speaker 3:

did she get her at dollar 18? I?

Speaker 2:

have no idea I'd walked away after the. After the hispanic dude uh dropped the uh the white history month line, I was like that's fucking hilarious well, karen would have blown a gasket if she was with us on saturday.

Speaker 3:

Why actually friday night? Because we went to this liquor store in uh, in lee's summit and she wouldn't have really blown a gasket because it ended up being in our favor. Uh, but uh, trish walked around the store and was looking for the biggest discounted item in the store and there was one that was marked $55 off, and so she picked it up, brought it to me and she goes 55 off. I'm like no, that can't be right. And the guy behind the counter is like no, it's really not right, but the digital pricing thing that we use puts it in and we got to honor it. So I got 132 bottle of vodka of uh, uh tequila for 65 bucks. Wow, yeah.

Speaker 2:

Don't you just feel like, oh my God, that's just the most it'll. You know what Kev It'll? It'll taste better too.

Speaker 3:

Oh my God, it's delicious. Yeah, it's a. It's a, it's a. 1492, don Julio, limited edition, primavera Reposado.

Speaker 2:

I've always thought that the best beer I ever drank is the free beer. Yep, Kevin, it reminds me we were using the term blow a gasket. Yes, I remember this like really, really hot girl a couple of years ago. She was like mad about something. I can't remember what it was. It was a golf course, really hot. We were all waiting on the first tee. And she goes oh my God, if this group in front of us does not increase their pace, I'm going to blow a gasket. And I walked up to her and say hi, my name's Gasket, Nice to meet you very funny.

Speaker 3:

Did she laugh oh? Yeah of course, of course oh yeah, yeah, we actually.

Speaker 2:

I actually like hung out with her a little bit shortly thereafter that didn't go anywhere and the answer to the question is even if I wasn't- named Gasket.

Speaker 3:

Very nice, very nice.

Speaker 2:

I'm kind of a little solemn today. I'm a little solemn. Why? What happened? I don't know if this has happened to you yet A guy I hung out with when I was young. He passed away last week. I just found out about it. Oh no, yeah, have you had anybody? We're getting to the age, right.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, yeah, I actually have. I played college baseball with him.

Speaker 2:

Oh, what happened, man?

Speaker 3:

One of them went to the pros. One of them pitched nine years in the pros. Who Will Brunson? Did he ever make the show? Oh, yeah, yeah, he made the show. Wow, yeah, I caught his no-hitter at Southwest Texas State.

Speaker 2:

No shit yeah, which is now Texas State, of course.

Speaker 3:

Right, yep, absolutely. It's where Audrey and Jonas go.

Speaker 2:

Yeah well, audrey's the athletic director. She doesn't go there, right exactly, she's the associate athletic director.

Speaker 2:

Anyway, the guy that passed away last week that I grew up with, I was just remembering back, you know, at the age of 16 or 17, he started dealing drugs, oh, and we were all worried about him. You know, we were like, hey man, you know that doesn't end well Either jail or dead. You know, don't do that, no-transcript. And then he started buying all of our concert tickets and he would rent the hotel room and buy the booze for the post-concert party.

Speaker 3:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

So at that point we told him it would be okay if he continued to steal the bus.

Speaker 3:

Did you ever ask him if he had any Earth, wind, fire tickets?

Speaker 2:

I got to moan.

Speaker 1:

When are those Earth Wind Fire tickets coming in? Earth Wind Fire Geez.

Speaker 2:

I haven't heard anything. Do you remember those Kev? When you're a teenager or early 20s or whatever, you go to a concert and then there would be the big party at the hotel afterwards the post-concert party.

Speaker 3:

I never got invited to those. Yeah, I was never on that guest list. I'm so sorry, man. It's okay. How were they? They were great, you would have loved them.

Speaker 2:

Everybody's in a great mood from a good concert. Everybody had a nice little buzz yeah.

Speaker 3:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

The hot women who couldn't get backstage, those you know.

Speaker 3:

Still had energy.

Speaker 2:

They still had some energy. Sorry you missed those man and sorry I bought them up.

Speaker 3:

That's okay. I love living vicariously through your exploit.

Speaker 2:

Did you guys when you were a teenager? I mean, did you have the hotel parties at all? Did you guys? You didn't party at all.

Speaker 3:

No, I didn't, Uh-uh, I didn't know about hotel parties. No, I mean, I knew that parties went on at people's houses, but I'd never heard of anything about a hotel party. No, so sorry man, that's okay.

Speaker 2:

I get it and maybe it wasn't, you know. It was a thing you know because the concert would happen at Market Square Arena downtown and nobody wanted to drive, you know 30, 40 minutes afterwards after the concert. So we would just like rent you know three or four rooms and then you'd have the sleep-in room where you'd have like 30 people sleeping in one room, and then you'd have the party room. That was just trash, so trashed you could never even sleep there.

Speaker 3:

So no, I I understand the concept, I just don't was unaware of them.

Speaker 2:

If they happened, I'm so sorry in the loo yeah, what we do in the party room, we take all the bedding and pillows and we put it in the sleeping room, because we knew that, if you know, sure, and we wanted to be ready later, so now was sleeping going on in the sleeping room.

Speaker 3:

I we knew that, if you know, sure, then we wanted to be ready later, so now was sleeping going on in the sleeping room. I cannot answer that question okay, because I never went to the sleeping room for me it was just called room. Very cool, very good, hey, hey Kev, yes sir.

Speaker 2:

And your mother-in-law probably would think did you rehearse that? Is that scripted without? None of that was scripted.

Speaker 3:

That was complete. We had no idea we were going to talk about that.

Speaker 2:

We were riffing. Yep, all of this is riffing. I do have a story, as you know, know my, the extent of my, my social life right now is, you know, the occasional um, you know, lady, yes, or ladies, that drop by, uh-huh, and then, you know, hanging out at the pool got it. You know, and I got a story. You know, sometimes I just go. I think I go too far, you know. But you know me, I just, I. All I care about is making people laugh.

Speaker 3:

You know the laugh.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I, just I'm going for the laugh.

Speaker 3:

Uh huh, I get it. You've always been that way.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I mean, it's cost me some relationships. We've we've talked about that where it's like is it 24, seven that you do this shit? Do you ever have anything serious to say? The answer is no. But you know, this guy asked me a simple question and it just turned into this whole big thing. Um, you know, he's like, hey, you seem to have it together. You know, I, I need to get my life together. Do you? Do you know of any good self-help books? And I said, yeah, but I'm not gonna tell you. I mean, why would you start the process in the hole? He got pissed. Then the other guy, the second guy, you know he had to step in and explain that it was a joke, that what I was saying was a joke. You know, cause some?

Speaker 3:

people don't get that Right.

Speaker 2:

Right, I mean, obviously you get it. He wants books on self-help and he wants my help. I'm like, no, you got to help yourself.

Speaker 3:

Exactly.

Speaker 2:

You dig it. Well, I'm very fortunate because there was an explainer guy there that got it and explained it to him, and then there was a chuckle.

Speaker 3:

Okay.

Speaker 2:

And then we're going to start, you know, start talking with the explainer guy. Uh-huh, and you know we were talking about, you know where we're from and everything. And he says he's from Michigan. And you know I asked him what part of Michigan? And because Michigan looks like a hand, he holds his hand up and you know there's Detroit, ann Arbor and all that. So he's pointing around to his hand. You know, using his hand as a map, because Michigan looks like a hand Right. And then I said, gee, I'm sure glad you're not from Florida. And initially he didn't get that. So self-help guy had to jump in and go, cause Florida shaped like a dick. I mean, Kev, you can do the comparison. I mean there's the Michigan, it looks like a hand. You know, you got that right on the screen. And then there's Florida, yeah, yeah, two balls up there in the panhandle and there's the dick hanging down Right there and it's pissing out of Miami. There you go. Miami's the urethra of our country.

Speaker 3:

Dude, there you go. Miami's the urethra of our country. Dude, that's not really even like Dennis Miller-esque comedy that you would have to research that or explain it. That's so obvious. Are these people not educated?

Speaker 2:

Well, I'm going to let you because it continued, I'm going to let you judge for yourself here. Okay, so you know the three of us got, you know, got talking about careers and everything like that. And you know I told him I was a radio guy and you know one of them remembered Second Date Update and was a big fan. And, by the way, you know I told him about the podcast and he says hello to you, kevin, he was a big fan of you. Oh hi, he's one of those that that uh, uh.

Speaker 3:

Kevin's laugh is just makes you want to laugh. He's one of those guys Cool.

Speaker 2:

Kevin Klein has the greatest laugh in history. He's one of those guys.

Speaker 3:

Oh, he'll like the podcast then.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, Uh. Then the Michigan guy said that just like me, he does something creative too, and I was like, well, what do you do? And he goes. Well, you know, I'm a club DJ.

Speaker 3:

Okay.

Speaker 2:

And I said that's not really creative. All you're doing is playing other people's music. I'm sure he appreciated that. That's how Tim loses friends. No matter how many times I said I'm just playing man, I'm just goofing with you, you could tell he was a little butt sore by that. Wow, come on man.

Speaker 3:

That's the humor.

Speaker 2:

Exactly All I'm doing is looking for the next laugh. I mean, dude, some people get it, some don't.

Speaker 3:

We know you build a dance floor. We know you get the girls to take their clothes off. We know that's your job. We're kidding you. We're kidding.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, you got a great life, buddy. Yeah, I mean, you literally do nothing but stand there and Bob your head up and down and you got a good chance of walking out of this place with two or three of those pretty nice looking women. Yeah, shut the fuck up, okay, relax I get it, man. Yeah, definitely right in the same boat with you, bro see you and I seem to have been running into that same problem of you. Know you don't want to get too close to neighbors no, no, not at all.

Speaker 3:

although I haven't talked to Bob recently, he's pretty much. I guess he's learned enough about me that he doesn't have to bother anymore.

Speaker 2:

Which one is Bob? Is Bob the hey? I don't know you and never met you. Will you move me?

Speaker 1:

No, no or is Bob the?

Speaker 2:

it was Bob like. Can you mow my 8,000 square mile lawn?

Speaker 3:

No, that's Drew. Bob's the guy that spent 63 years at UPS. Oh, okay, yeah, yeah, so he waves now, but he doesn't?

Speaker 2:

Oh, that's good. Yeah, that's how you want to keep that shit man.

Speaker 3:

Definitely.

Speaker 2:

You know, upward head nod, uh-huh. Or even the downward head nod if you're, you know, over 60 years old. Otherwise it's the upward head nod, or maybe a sup man. Yeah, sup man. That's all you have, that's it. That's it. I don't want any neighbor relationship that goes past sup man. But you know, because I hang out at the pool and have a cocktail or bring my kids to the pool, yeah, I can't be a total dick when they come over and want to talk to me.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, yeah, but keep them at arm's length. You know that kind of stuff.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, oh yeah. Yeah, we've talked about that. You don't want to. You don't want neighbors close because you know they're always there. Yeah, definitely, it's like this lady that she's pretty Very good-looking lady, her and I hung out a little bit. I let her in.

Speaker 3:

Okay.

Speaker 2:

One thing leads to another, and then you know it's shortly thereafter. It's like, hey, you know, we'd probably be a good couple, yeah. And then I have to have that conversation. It's like, hey, I'm not good at that. I mean, you can see the apartment right here and believe it or not? I've made millions and this is all I have to show for it. So I'm not good at that shit, so I'm not in any hurry. Yeah, it's a fight. You know, am I completely closed off forever? No, I mean, if Cupid organically shoots an arrow in my ass, that's cool, but otherwise I ain't looking yeah.

Speaker 3:

I was going to ask you that, but you answered the question right there. I mean, if the perfect opportunity, the perfect situation showed itself, you'd be open to that right.

Speaker 2:

Oh, kev, I've always been a romantic. I've always well here's, I guess. Here's the thing. This is what has been assessed. You know somebody that you know had way too many conversations with, that ended up being a psychiatrist, like a therapist, gave me this feedback and just said hey, you know, tim, you you love falling in love, but you you don't like maintaining it. You get uncomfortable and then you start doing stupid things and saying stupid things and everything like that. And I'm looking back at all my failed relationships. I'm like, holy shit, you're fucking right. Wow, you know, yeah.

Speaker 3:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I was like damn man, I was like you got that conversation. You know, you got that from maybe 15, 20 minutes of a conversation with me and he's like, yep, that was easy.

Speaker 3:

You know who else is like that. Now, she doesn't like, and if this is a wrong term to use, I apologize, but she doesn't self-sabotage her relationships. She picks out guys that sabotage her relationship Pamela Anderson. Pamela Anderson loves falling in love.

Speaker 2:

Same with J-Lo.

Speaker 3:

So there's two right on the horizon for you there. Timmy, make your move. Nah, nah.

Speaker 2:

If it was 1999, yeah.

Speaker 3:

Okay.

Speaker 2:

All right, yep, all right, but I've seen too much since then. Okay, but no, no, I mean, you know, yeah, I mean I'm open to it, but I'm not. Yeah, kev, the more that I, you know, spend time solo, the more I like it. I just I like it. Yeah, one of my big fears used to be, you know, I didn't want to die alone. But now I'm pretty sure, like Audrey or Jonas or Dallas or Timmy, would, you know, hang out with me a little bit.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, we just had this conversation over the weekend with uh, with our friends, uh, bob and Kim and uh. They have two children and we asked you know which one will take care of you in your old age, the way that you're taking care of your mom? Now, bob, he goes. Oh, it would be Brad. He goes, brianna not that that's not her style, but I'm like well at least you got somebody we don't.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, that's it. You know we got nothing. I mean, whoever, uh, whichever one of you, or your wife, you know, trish, uh, whichever one of you dies, first wins, that's right yeah, well, uh, I I'm the, I'm the leader in the clubhouse on that one, by the way yeah, you'll probably, you'll probably pull that one off yeah, yeah oh boy, I'm trying to think of it.

Speaker 2:

You know if, if, if I was dying, audrey, jonas, dallas and timmy? It may be a little too early to make that assessment because dallas and timmy aremy are still young, but I'd probably say that Audrey would pitch in the effort to make sure she was there.

Speaker 3:

I think all four of your kids would.

Speaker 2:

I think so too.

Speaker 3:

I think all four of your kids would yeah. Timmy might try and bench press the casket, but I got this dad.

Speaker 2:

Just get up, dad. This whole thing is just a charade. What the hell, Kev? Let's do this. Let's talk about the rabbit holes we both jumped in last week.

Speaker 1:

Rabbit hole of the week.

Speaker 2:

All right, what was yours?

Speaker 3:

I have two, so we've three out of the last five weekends have driven up to Kansas City to visit our friends and to go look for houses, so I've been looking for a lot of houses lately. But every time we go up there, we listen to either Dateline podcast or 2020 podcast, and so I remember all the names of the people who are being investigated or who were murdered and then I go look at them. So I have spent a lot of time looking up stories that we listened to on the ride.

Speaker 2:

Oh, that, yeah, I always do that follow up stuff too. Yeah, don't you? You have to Again just to have that gap in knowledge. You hate that, yeah, and I have to know. And now we have the ability to just look it up, yeah, Like they were doing this one, the Lords of Chaos.

Speaker 3:

They were in Florida and it was a group of seven high schoolers and they were all led by this one kid named Kevin Foster, and they made this Kevin Foster guy out to sound like he was the most charismatic, like.

Speaker 2:

Jim Jones leader type of thing. So I had to get a look at him. Dude looked like a minger. I'm like they were following this guy, but yeah, a minger, by the way, is a British term for an ugly person. Yes, kevin used to have this thing about 20 years ago where he used to like look up Was it Minger dot com or something like that Mingers dot com, yeah, mingers dot com Ugly people and be fascinated with it. And if we just gave you a rabbit hole, you know we apologize.

Speaker 3:

The British are horrible people.

Speaker 2:

Oh, oh, they're horrible.

Speaker 3:

we would never do anything like that, although there there is a an american version ugly peoplecom so yeah, and I don't look at that one because I feel that I might be a a person on there and I don't know if I want to go with that that would just have you rolling into a downward spiral that you couldn't recover from.

Speaker 2:

yeah, if I, if I ever knew that I was on uglypeoplecom hey, mom, let me borrow dad's cord.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, that would be tragic.

Speaker 2:

My rabbit hole and I don't know if you you probably know this. I got caught in Pittsburgh Pirates pitcher from the 70s, doc Ellis and his no hitter when he was tripping on acid LSD.

Speaker 3:

Yep Totally remember that.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I was just looking up everything and you know he was, he was telling the story. You know that he wasn't, didn't think he was gonna pitch that night and suddenly and his girlfriend was like hey, you're pitching, and he just dropped a bunch of, just a whole boatload of acid and he went to the the ballpark and they were playing the San Diego Padres in San Diego California, the Pittsburgh Pirates, and he says he couldn't even see the batter.

Speaker 3:

Oh geez.

Speaker 2:

And he had his catcher wear reflective tape so he could see the signals. Okay, and that's the only way he could see the signals and all he zoned in on was the catcher's mitt. That's it. Wow, that's all he zoned in on. I mean, he walked a bunch of people. He like walked eight people.

Speaker 3:

Uh-huh, I'd imagine so.

Speaker 2:

And loaded the bases and everything like that a couple of times, but you know it was a no-no. No runs on acid.

Speaker 3:

You see how, basically, two things happen right there. Number one he just simplified the game. No overthinking, no, oh my God, I got to get this pitch here. He just simplified the game. And number two it's the inner game of tennis. You will do your best when you are no longer concerned about the outcome. He just wanted to get through the game.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, kevin, speaking of which, with my trading, that's what helped me too, where I would just no, no, just zoning in on one thing, like forget about the noise and what anybody's saying or what anybody's doing. I just zone in and when I see my setup form, I'd hop it Uh-huh Otherwise, otherwise I don't do a damn thing. Yeah, until I see the uh s&p 500, es, e, minis. I see that chart. Do you know either one of my m reversals or one of my w reversals? You know, basically it's double top, double bottom. Until I see that, I don't do shit. Wow.

Speaker 3:

Okay. Nothing, but you've simplified the game for yourself.

Speaker 2:

That's all I look for, yeah, and once I see that I put an order in and I have a mechanical system, I'm going to take half off at this much. I'm going to take a quarter of it off at you know a little further, and I'm going to let that last little piece run all day. If I continue to run in that direction, all right, and that's all I do.

Speaker 3:

Wow, Simple, it's just simple. I mean for you it's simple, For me it would be a foreign language.

Speaker 2:

Oh, I'm so sorry if I went into the woods on that one. I'm so sorry. No, I'm so sorry if I went into the woods on that one. I'm so sorry.

Speaker 3:

No, I mean, well it that actually simplified it for me, though you know, like, if I, I don't, I don't know what you do, I mean it's just, it's way over my head. But if you're giving me symbols like a double M, like a McDonald's or a Whataburger, yeah, then I know something's in play.

Speaker 2:

I either water burger when it looks like it's going to reverse from going down to up, or on McDonald's if it's looking like it's going to go from up to down.

Speaker 3:

There you go.

Speaker 2:

See, and then I let the market give me what it's going to give me, and about 40% of the time it's going to stop me out for a small loss and about 60% of the time I'm going to make a profit off of it.

Speaker 3:

Nice, and and about 60% of the time, I'm going to make a profit off of it.

Speaker 2:

Nice and that's it, nice, and as long as those 60% you know.

Speaker 3:

Outweigh the 40.

Speaker 2:

Outweigh the 40. I can keep the lights on.

Speaker 3:

You're in business. Exactly, and that's a program that you developed, right.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, pretty much. Yeah, I noticed it very early on. But you know, right, yeah, pretty much. Yeah, I noticed it very early on. But other people use it too. They used to call it like a one, two, three, reversal or some double top, double bottom. I did the M and the W. It just looks like an M and a W and then go. So that's it, that's all I do, all I live for. Okay, so you're right. I mean, doc Ellis was just zoned in on the catcher's mitt the whole night and he became the only pitcher in history to hit a no hitter on LSD. He also became the only pitcher in history to pitch to a green alien with four arms, with Elvis Presley as the umpire. Totally, and that's it. Congratulations to him.

Speaker 3:

Way to go doc. Way to go doc.

Speaker 2:

Way to go, yeah.

Speaker 3:

Speaking of the Pittsburgh pirates, I'm going to be talking with Burt Blylevin's son, Todd, pretty soon.

Speaker 2:

Shut your fucking mouth.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, and he was on the bench. He grew up with the Pirates. He knows Willie Stargell and knew Dave.

Speaker 2:

Parker. Oh my God, he knows the 1979. We Are Family. Yeah yeah, with Bill Gardner, former Astros manager was on that team, played infield. You had Ket Takove, the center field foul pole, the skinny underhand submarine relief pitcher, willie Stargell, dave the Cobra Parker, was on that team.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, those are the stories I want to hear. I want to hear about the Cobra.

Speaker 2:

Oh yeah, dave Parker. I used to love Dave Parker Bill.

Speaker 3:

Maddox was third baseman.

Speaker 2:

Exactly, bill Maddog, maddox, yeah, yeah, at third base. And they won the 1979 World Series and, if I remember correctly, kev, that's the first time that a city had won the Super Bowl and the World Series in the same year.

Speaker 3:

Probably so.

Speaker 2:

Pittsburgh Steelers and the Pittsburgh Pirates world champions. They held them both.

Speaker 3:

I'm sure Andy Hudak will give us the lowdown to make sure that we're accurate on that. So, Hootie, what's going on? Hi buddy, he listens every week.

Speaker 2:

I think that was it, and then I think the Patriots and the Red Sox became the next one.

Speaker 3:

Oh, that makes sense.

Speaker 2:

Maybe there was one in between there, I don't know. Man. See, the fortunate thing is because you can just look it up. You would know it right away.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, yeah, you would know it.

Speaker 2:

Like, look at Kevin right here. He looks it up and tells us you know cities that have won world championships in the same year, and he runs it on the screen. Back when we were young, you couldn't do that. You literally had that pain in your brain of going oh my God, I have to know. And if you really wanted to know, you had to go to the library, grab an almanac and look it up by hand, yourself by hand. Yeah, On a year by year. On a year by year. So, kids, you have no idea how easy you have it. You should get on your knees every day and thank the good Lord, Jesus, that you have search engines.

Speaker 3:

And AI now and.

Speaker 2:

AI, which I love AI.

Speaker 3:

Trish took a whole seminar last week, a three-day seminar on AI and man just the stuff that she's able to do after those three days. It's crazy, I love it. Yeah, she doesn't even have to talk to me anymore, she just says that she's able to do after those three days. It's crazy, I love it. Yeah, she doesn't even have to talk to me anymore, she just says hey, say this to my husband.

Speaker 2:

Oh, that's so funny, kevin. I like that. You know I've been playing around the last couple of days with you know some images that you can just make, just describe to chat GBT and it makes you images.

Speaker 3:

Is that cool as hell?

Speaker 2:

well, it is unless you're taylor swift or uh jenna ortega yeah, you're not real happy with that right now. Yeah, and I'm gonna, I'm gonna put this up here right now, kev, and this will be inserted in uh chat, gp, gbt. Um, make tim Tuttle a 400 pound gorilla and Kevin Klein and Ann Eater, and we both have microphones in our hands or, you know, at our face.

Speaker 3:

Okay.

Speaker 2:

And then we'll it'll be posted right here with that. Oh look at that. Oh my gosh. Oh look at AI. You're so crazy.

Speaker 3:

Just by him saying that, look at that.

Speaker 2:

Exactly, yeah, they were making porn out of Taylor Swift, weren't they?

Speaker 3:

Yeah, and Jenna Ortega. They were doing nude pictures of her.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, well, yeah Again, you won't know the difference anymore, right? I mean, the thing I'm worried about is Taylor Swift and Jen Ortega getting really, really angry at AI, and then AI just saying well, I'm just going to replace you, and you wouldn't know whose song was whose song and whose movie was whose movie, because that's where we're going.

Speaker 3:

So the US government this is a true story, read it last week. The US government has commissioned a scientist in MIT, massachusetts Institute of Technology, mit to start recreating the human brain through AI. The goal with this is to eventually create pieces of the human brain to implant in the human brain and work for it.

Speaker 2:

Let me tell you this I completely trust our government and their intentions. With this Right, I think they have nothing but the most benevolent intent here, and nothing could ever go wrong.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, so they're saying that it will lead to immortality.

Speaker 2:

Oh yeah, Again, Kev, we discussed this before. There are people among us, younger people among us, that'll live a thousand years.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, no, we've read stories about that. That's true with stem cell research, with AI, now with using what Elon Musk is trying to do with putting, um, uh like pacemaker type things in your brain to make it think for you.

Speaker 2:

You know, it's just, everything is just a matter of time. I mean, it's like when you, when I'm on social media and you know you hear about a celebrity scandal or a celebrity popping off or something like that, I'm just thinking you're over in five years, you have no idea you're over, because that you know thinking you're over in five years.

Speaker 2:

You have no idea you're over Cause that you know eventually, all you know to make a movie or a TV show, they're just going to enter the right shit into a AI and it's going to make entire movies, entire TV shows with very human looking. You know characters and you're out of business and the studios are just going to be like in the creative minds or whoever's going to be running this shit, or just gonna be like we don't have to worry about your bullshit attitude. You're not going to come out of the trailer because you're not. You know we didn't have enough Brown M&Ms in your little jar you know, yeah, oh, exactly.

Speaker 2:

It's gone, it's over. So I just I laugh whenever I see like celebrities, just you know, just full of themselves.

Speaker 3:

But then what happens when AI does start getting attitude, Because you know it's eventually going to happen?

Speaker 2:

We got to, we got to put a bullet in it. You know, kev, what are you talking about? You know Sarah Connor and Arnold.

Speaker 3:

Schwarzenegger told us exactly what we needed to do Terminator.

Speaker 2:

I sure hope that somebody that's cool, like somebody that's benevolent, is telling AI hey, we're going to need a time machine. Really bad, why don't you get to work on that? Yeah, I'll just sit here and make sure you have the energy. I'll be shoveling coal just to make sure you have the energy to work on that shit.

Speaker 3:

Yes, sir.

Speaker 2:

Because, yeah, we're going to need it. Somebody's going to need to go back in time to 2021, you know, and unplug something or explain to some, you know, some computer geek hey, man, you're not. Hey, as soon as you press enter on August 17th 2021, this is what happens in the future. That's right. So I'm here from the future to tell you please don't press enter.

Speaker 3:

And that AI thing is going to look just like Michael J Fox, without the shaking yeah, exactly. Oh my God, mine's been out of control this morning. You're shaking, oh yeah.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, that's the medication, though, right.

Speaker 3:

Uh well, maybe, uh, they, they think that uh might be pre Parkinson's. But yeah, oh, really, yeah, like some days, I, yeah, I can't even hold a glass of water. Some days, oh my God, could be concussions. I had three of them. So shoot.

Speaker 2:

I had four man.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, they don't know for sure.

Speaker 2:

And Kev, I know like it was like once, you know, every four or five months, I told you I used to get the ocular migraine where I'd see color.

Speaker 3:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

In my eyes. Well, now it's like once every six or seven days that's concussion related. Well, yeah, I was the idiot that put the head down and had the helmet to helmet playing football. That was genius.

Speaker 3:

When you get one of those, how do you deal with it?

Speaker 2:

I mean to me. I think it's, and I'm probably wrong, but at least as a placebo I think it's because I'm not hydrated enough, so I'll just drink a bunch of water and then it goes away. I don't know whether that's it or not.

Speaker 3:

No, hydration is a big part of getting rid of migraines.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I, just because I drink a lot of water, like I'm drinking it now, yeah. But you know, I guess my body's used to being very saturated and when I don't drink as much, I mean my body starts to say, hey, do you have to go in a dark room? I don't have to go in a dark room, but I'll make sure my lights are out.

Speaker 3:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

And Cam, I got to tell you this too. Speaking of which, I almost always have lights out. I hate lights. Okay, I mean, I almost always Like there's a specific light in my kitchen that's so annoying to me. It's one of those overheads that really beam down. I never turn it on. Well, that saves you electricity Bill. Exactly, that's a bonus too.

Speaker 3:

But I don't like lights as it is Behind you. Is that natural sunlight coming in then?

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 3:

Nice.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, you know from the blinds. Yeah, there's, there is not one single light on at all. The only what you're seeing right now is probably off my screen. Yeah, the the screen that I have, but you know, that's it. I I try to use as little light as possible, except when I'm using sharp objects. I like to have light.

Speaker 3:

Yes, of course.

Speaker 2:

Kev, are you ready for this week's?

Speaker 3:

top three? I think so.

Speaker 1:

Just when you thought they couldn't count any higher. It's Tuttle Klein's top three.

Speaker 2:

Okay, top three women that aren't considered world-class beauties, but you find hot.

Speaker 3:

Oh my God, this is awesome.

Speaker 2:

Now, not the obvious ones. I mean no supermodels, nobody from Victoria's Secret, no Sports Illustrated swimsuit models Angelina Jolie, jessica Alba, scarlett Johansson too obvious, we're talking about underrated, world-class beauties. Yeah.

Speaker 3:

I'm just I. Every time I watch Saturday Night Live. I'm like God. I love Heidi Gardner. Oh really that's kind of what you're talking about right Underrated, oh yeah, yeah, yeah, I love Heidi Gardner. She's awesome.

Speaker 2:

I think she's stunning like if she had a fan club uh, you know of guys who ruled over her it wouldn't be that huge, but you would be one of them?

Speaker 3:

oh yeah, for sure. Well, and I know she's from kansas city, so that's why we're looking at helms up there. I'm kidding, I'm kidding, oh shit gwyneth paltrow has been replaced. No, no, no, no, no. Gwynny can never be replaced. Let's see. So yeah, heidi Gardner comes to mind. I guess maybe because I'm watching the Office now. But Jenna Fisher, jenna Fisher, pam from the Office, you like Pam, okay, yeah she's cute, she's cute.

Speaker 2:

And then hmm, they wouldn't be on any posters in a college kid's dorm room. However, they do it for you.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, I think that Megan Thee Stallion, she would probably be on somebody's poster.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, she'd be on a poster. Okay, she's from Houston.

Speaker 3:

I know, I know I love her. I love her music. She's super cool to me. Let's see.

Speaker 2:

Wait a minute. Super cool to you. Do you know her?

Speaker 3:

No, I don't.

Speaker 2:

I don't, oh no, super cool to me.

Speaker 3:

Right.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, it's not like you've met her and she's really cool to you, it's just like to you you think she's super cool.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, I mean, I like her music, I like her message, I love the way she looks. I mean she's very open about her depression and all the things that she has to go through to be a superstar like she is. But, yeah, I appreciate that about her. I like that about her.

Speaker 2:

I'll let you have it, can have it. Okay, all right, you got megan stallion. You got it houston girl who you got uh, kev, I think you know this one too. I've always had a weird thing for beverly d'angelo oh yeah, the overbite the, she had the, she had the overbite. And you know the shower scene from the first vacation movie. It's still stuck in my head as a young youngster uh-huh I was.

Speaker 2:

I was shocked. I was like, damn, that is hot, she is hot, yeah, yeah. So I always had a thing. Now this is from the 80s. I mean she's turned out to be a fucking pterodactyl since then and again, you know, I I'm not making fun of her aging. I mean, we all, you know, get older. You know get older, but you know, when you're injecting all this shit in your face, yeah, and doing all that stuff, I mean, here she was. I mean, look at this On one side here, kevin's got a picture of her when she was on vacation and then a recent Whoa, oh hey, a recent picture of her, and that's not her age, that's.

Speaker 3:

Uh, her plastic surgeon must have been drunk that day.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, that's cosmetic stuff right there. Yeah, uh, my number two, kevin, I've got to give. Uh, I gotta give props to uh comedian ali wong. Okay, do you know her? Yes, I do, there's something about her uh-huh and I can't explain it. There's something about her that is really dynamite, sexy she's got. She's got like a guy's sense of humor. Yeah, if you've ever watched her comedy act, she's a great guy's locker room comedian and she's just very beautiful and pretty and shit like that you know.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, there's just something about her that I you know and and having heidi gardner at the top of my list. I think maybe it is because of the sense of senses of humor that they have makes them even more.

Speaker 2:

She's got, she's got really dirty mind and I love that well then, where would nicky gla be on your? I don't like her as much. I like Whitney Cummings though. Oh, do you really? Yeah, I would. I would have had Whitney Cummings on the list, but you know, everybody thinks she's hot. Ok so I don't have her on the list. And then my third one, and I don't know if you remember her because it's a different format, but when I was doing top 40 radio she had a song that was pretty big Natalie Imbruglia.

Speaker 3:

I totally remember Natalie Imbruglia. Yeah, dark hair.

Speaker 2:

The lips. I mean there's just something really mega sexy about her and I can remember meeting her and interviewing her and I was just like wow, you are ridiculous. You are, that's ridiculous. That's ridiculous. It's kind of like kev when we uh the. When we first started in 1996 together doing morning radio, our first big concert was uh, uh, 311 and no doubtbt.

Speaker 3:

No Doubt, yes, I absolutely remember.

Speaker 2:

And I remember we were interviewing backstage Gwen Stefani.

Speaker 3:

Yes.

Speaker 2:

And I was like holy shit, you're like a fucking perfect Barbie doll.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, yep.

Speaker 2:

I was like she looked perfect. You know what I'm saying.

Speaker 3:

I do know what you're saying. Yeah, I think everybody thought that she was very attractive, very pretty.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, I remember that she was super cool, they were super cool also.

Speaker 2:

Oh, they were awesome and I don't know. It made me wonder um, because you know this is 1996, she's young, very new on the scene.

Speaker 2:

She was just really really fucking cool yeah like like just you know, look you in the eyes, talk with you, joke with you, you know, really at least act like she cared, and maybe she did. I just wonder, though, if there's some point where, if you and I, like, met her, you know, 20 years after that, maybe you know, back in 2016 or something like that would she still have been cool, because she's just been a mega star for so long?

Speaker 3:

she wouldn't remember our first meeting, but I think she would be cool. Uh, just simply because we would introduce, reintroduce ourselves and say, hey, we spoke with you back in 1996. You're obviously doing well for yourself. We're still on radio, I think. I think she would still be cool.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, yeah, and she would probably cause Kev. That show was in Nashville in 1996. Right, and you know, we talked to Blake Shelton on the air and I told him about that. I said I remember when your wife, you know, are they married?

Speaker 3:

They are married yeah.

Speaker 2:

Okay, gwen, I remember, when you know, she was part of no Doubt and 311 no Doubt, the big concert in 1996. And I just remember she was perfect and Blake, I remember him saying yeah, I talked to a lot of people that went to that concert and said the same thing. Yeah for sure. She was just a girl. Just a girl In the world. She's walking in the spider web. Leave a message and I'll call you back. That's one of those songs I have to sing along with.

Speaker 3:

It's a great song.

Speaker 2:

And I think is one of the reasons that Erica and I split up is I used to sing that out loud- oh, it wasn't the George Strait song. What's that? Check yes or no no no, I would sing that out loud when it came on. I'm logging in the spider and erica would be like what the fuck are you singing?

Speaker 2:

we said that often when you were singing exactly didn't recognize the tune, so what the fuck are you singing and what artist or composer will be suing you for singing? That's totally my life, man. All right, kevin klein, what do you have, man?

Speaker 3:

uh, nothing, uh, just uh, you know? Oh, this week I am talking with brandy roderick. Want me to ask her anything andy roderick okay kevin.

Okay, okay, the tunnel incline fulfills my need to laugh. The fuzzy mic. It fulfills my need to be cathartic. It's a it's a cathartic outlet for me because of the mental health that I deal with. I get it, and that's what the focus is on.

Speaker 2:

That is what are you going to be doing with Brandy Roderick? Does she had some issues?

Speaker 3:

Yes, yeah, she actually wrote a book when she was a playboy playmate about how to navigate stardom and how to. It's basically a how to for young women to enter the world with more confidence and higher self-esteem, because she had very, very low self-esteem, believe it or not.
