What happens when two co-hosts show up with zero plan and way too many opinions? Chaos, obviously. In this episode of Unapologetically Us The Podcast, David and Jenn go completely off the rails talking cruise stories from their family’s recent trip on Royal Caribbean, debate whether they’d rather live without air conditioning or Wi-Fi, spiral into a hilarious “chicken wing math” conspiracy, and somehow end up discussing pickleball obsessions, gardening, food supply paranoia, and the randomness of adult life.  

From cruise ship mishaps and sibling vacation recaps to HVAC drama, weird food theories, and those incomplete thoughts we all have but rarely say out loud, this episode is pure unscripted comedy. If you love funny relationship podcasts, random debates, cruise talk, pop culture tangents, and millennial humor, this one is for you.

We also tackle questions like: Are there enough chickens in the world for all the wings we eat? Is pickleball becoming a personality trait? And what would you choose… no air conditioning or no Wi-Fi?

Expect laughs, conspiracy-level overthinking, relationship banter, cruise stories, and the kind of random conversations that somehow make perfect sense.

SPEAKER_02

What in the absolute fuck was that?

SPEAKER_01

No clue. We were all over the place. We'll just call this one random thoughts.

SPEAKER_02

Or not incomplete thoughts.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. Hey everybody, and welcome back to another episode of Unapologetically Us, the podcast. I'm David.

SPEAKER_02

He's Sir William.

SPEAKER_01

Oh yeah.

SPEAKER_02

That's gonna That's just gonna be the name, Sir William. And I am Jen. Sorry.

SPEAKER_01

So last week we let you know that our siblings went on a cruise on the same ship that we were on a couple months ago.

SPEAKER_02

I did not ask them if they went to go visit Mariska.

SPEAKER_01

They did not. I asked. And it was um, well, first of all, I don't think that they knew that the messaging app on the app nobody knew how to get that to operate. So nobody knew that when you open the phone and it you go to the Wi-Fi, it tells you step by step what to do. Apparently nobody could figure that out. Nobody read it. So Shannon is the only one with Wi-Fi.

SPEAKER_02

Right.

SPEAKER_01

Well, I'm assuming. I don't know if anybody else did.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, I didn't ask her if any of the other ones did or not. So apparently I know your brother didn't.

SPEAKER_01

He didn't, and then he would get lost and have no way to find anybody. He'd have to walk the whole entire ship until he found somebody again. So there was that. Um ship was way too big for him.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, that's what uh way too big. Um that's what he I guess had told Shannon that he would have done better on a smaller one. Yeah, and I was like, well But it but think about it, like with us, like I thought I don't think I can go any bigger than Utopia.

SPEAKER_01

That like that class. I bet you we wouldn't even notice.

SPEAKER_02

I don't know, man.

SPEAKER_01

I don't think we would notice on icon.

SPEAKER_02

Oh, we'll have to try it.

SPEAKER_01

I mean we'll try eventually, but it's not something that I'm like, ooh, let's go do tomorrow.

SPEAKER_02

Right.

SPEAKER_01

Um I where we're going on Harmony next, that would that's that's a this is the same as Utopia.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, Oasis is a is a decent size for us. Um but I think he would be better on like liberty or freedom or something. Um it's a couple of classes down from uh where that one is. Um but yeah, he'd so he'd he just couldn't get it over the just the amount of people.

SPEAKER_02

Oh really?

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. It you know, he's very simple, like you know, he lives in the they live out in the sticks, so you know, if he doesn't if they don't communicate and see people for days, they're fine. Like, you know, like that's just the simple life that they choose to live.

SPEAKER_02

And well he uh okay, so but that's not like how you guys have always like if you look at Nick Oh yeah, baseball, football, and they're still that way, right?

SPEAKER_01

But like they have control over that. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, so you know, when you're on a cruise, you are told when you can get off and when you can't get off, obviously, because you're not gonna get off in the middle of the ocean, right? But but you know, everything is is scheduled for the most part now. Um then he ended up getting what he thought was sick, whether he was, whether he wasn't, I don't know. But he said he felt feverish, so he just stayed in the room, I guess, the third day. Um, so that was the day that you remember how he had planned out all these things stuff.

SPEAKER_02

He didn't get into any of his stuff.

SPEAKER_01

Most everything was that day.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Um, but Shannon did make a good point. They got off and he got his hair braided.

SPEAKER_02

Well, that's what I also said.

SPEAKER_01

I was like, I wonder if that he got a headache just. And then that triggered everything else. Yeah. Um it it's very possible. Yeah. Um, and he's still not feeling well, so I wonder if if he took the braids out yet. I need I should have asked when I talked to him earlier.

SPEAKER_02

I don't know. Um, you know, they But did you see the picture that Shannon posted when he was getting his hair braided and she's sitting there drinking a calique? I said, I talked to her that night and I said, I said, Nick almost looks like he's in childbirth.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, he looked he he looked miserable.

SPEAKER_02

Um that's he wanted to do it.

SPEAKER_01

Well, and when he found out how much it was, he was like, I'm not doing it. And Shannon made him. Oh, so um according to what he said. So uh Shannon. But anyway, um, but they I don't think they did they didn't do much at Coco Kay, they stayed in the free areas, you know. They didn't pay for anything.

SPEAKER_02

Well they went, they did the snorkeling.

SPEAKER_01

No, it got canceled. It was too windy. I thought so.

SPEAKER_02

Shannon said that she brought her own, and I think they brought them to the beach for her to do their self like their own self-snorkeling.

SPEAKER_01

They but they had an excursion that got cancelled. Right. So I don't they did go I don't know how far he said, but they said they had to walk aways to find like a public beach access. Um I they he didn't mention snorkel gear um at all, but so Shannon has one of those ones that's the whole face. Oh uh.

SPEAKER_02

Like the the thing is the whole face, and before she was leaving, like in her and I are the same. Once we get on a on a boat, our allergies just disappear. There's no this, there's no, you know, it's just it's gone. The salt water life is just healing for us at that point. And I and before she left, like she was having a really, really bad allergy attack or whatever. And I said, shit. I said, just imagine putting your snorkel thing on and sneezing at that pill. The snot everywhere.

SPEAKER_01

Oh my lord, that wouldn't have been funny. So, but they did get in the ocean, and I guess they went back, I'm not sure. Um, but he said he wasn't feeling bad at that point. It was he felt afterwards. Um, and then apparently there was um some scuffling of the room was too cold, the room was too hot, back and forth. Oh, between them two? Yeah, they're not they're not on the same level as me and yeah. We're like, okay, Antarctica is fine. Yeah. Um, you know, so yeah.

SPEAKER_02

So who was too hot?

SPEAKER_01

Nick was too hot, Shannon was too cold. So Nick's on our level, Shannon is not.

SPEAKER_02

Which is crazy because my parents leave the house at like 80 degrees, and she's like in there with like fans blowing on her.

SPEAKER_01

So I figured she would have been But she it's too cold for her because she's now acclimated to that.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, yes.

SPEAKER_01

And doesn't realize it.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

You know?

SPEAKER_02

So Oh yeah, we're Antarctic all day.

SPEAKER_01

I mean, and we were on the last trip, we never even have to use our fans.

SPEAKER_02

No, which was amazing. And I don't think we're gonna have to use them this time either.

SPEAKER_01

Well, I mean, it it did it is in dry dock right now. Maybe they're gonna flip it.

SPEAKER_02

Give a little freange.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, charge that bitch up. Um, speaking of air conditioning, so this is let me just throw this off off like a one like thing. Um so I was gonna bring this up, and since now we were talking about ship air conditioning, I'm gonna talk about my air conditioning. So last week my air decided it didn't want to work. Um, I was like, okay. So just to what I always do, see if anything sucks out of the out of the line. Right. I got so I don't know how big the bucket is. It's probably about maybe this big, like for my shop vac. Uh-huh. And I got about that much water out of it. I was like, holy cow, okay. Well, it didn't do anything. I was like, great. So I kept trying to knock it down like degree by degree. Um, so I was only that way for a day and a half, but I wasn't there most of the day, so it didn't matter. Um, so then I uh on Sunday I had to call and have somebody come out, and it was the capacitor. Um, I have a service contract with this company that I do not like, and every time they come I tell them I don't like it and I can't wait for the contract to be over. Um so isn't it like a three-year? I still have two years left. It was five. Oh yeah, so I have two years left.

SPEAKER_02

Um yeah, but think about it this way like he came out on a Sunday.

SPEAKER_01

My service calls are free.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

So I have no everything is an emergency. Uh if I call, it's they consider it an emergency because of the level of it, whatever.

SPEAKER_02

Well, if Sir David calls, it's an emergency.

SPEAKER_01

I don't get charged or anything like that. So uh free visits basically. So that worked out. He tried to tell me that so I wasn't outside with him most of the time. I was inside because sitting in front of the fan and watching TV. And uh TV. It was, it was my cruise fan. I had it right on the table. It was fine. And that thing blows some that thing is powerful.

SPEAKER_02

Yes.

SPEAKER_01

That was the best decision we've ever made.

SPEAKER_02

I use it when I take the shower.

SPEAKER_01

See, I don't, but you know, I keep my house almost eight degrees colder than you do here.

SPEAKER_02

So that's at night.

SPEAKER_01

And I shower in the morning, so it's still frigid when I'm showering. So what do you put it at? 69 degrees.

SPEAKER_02

David, it's 75 right now. That's not eight degrees. Learn to count. And number two, at night I sleep at 72.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, that's too hot for me.

SPEAKER_02

Do you want to know what not to go off track like we always fucking do?

SPEAKER_01

Right.

SPEAKER_02

62 is the perfect sleep temperature in research right now.

SPEAKER_01

I'm gonna try it tonight.

unknown

We'll see.

SPEAKER_02

Well, you've started sleeping in the nude now. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

So but so do you.

SPEAKER_02

But I've been doing that for years.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, but I don't know, I don't know if I could do actually my air conditioner might shit the bed if I do that.

SPEAKER_02

So but but think about the cruise. Uh we have that thing jacked down to probably 62.

SPEAKER_01

Well, it I think 65 is the lowest that it goes.

SPEAKER_02

But it was fantastic.

SPEAKER_01

That was great. I mean, it was a little chilly a couple times.

SPEAKER_02

And no, we made sure not to look at each other.

SPEAKER_01

We got robes for all of that.

SPEAKER_02

We have robes, uh, turn face the wall. Yeah. Don't look over here.

SPEAKER_01

Plenty of light, yeah. Um, but so I looked out the window while he was out there working, and I saw him change the capacitor on the side of my unit out there. And he we did talk about it, but I figured that he like changed it out or they were gonna charge me. Well, we were just talking and he's like, Oh, it's your compressor. They wanted to try to charge me for over$4,500 to put in a new compressor. I was like, I can buy a whole new unit for that.

SPEAKER_02

But that is the unit, right?

SPEAKER_01

No.

SPEAKER_02

He's not talking about the big thing, he's talking about That's that's the There's the handler that's in your house.

SPEAKER_01

That's in the house, and then the condenser.

SPEAKER_02

Like, that's the other. So it's capacitor, compressor, condenser, it's a good thing. That's all within one. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Right. But I could buy a whole new unit. Right. Inside outside.

SPEAKER_02

I don't know. Not with this fucking economy we got going on.

SPEAKER_01

Who really? Right now, I don't I'm not sure. But like, I mean, I think I paid$6,000 for my unit that I have now, just eight years ago. I mean, it's getting older, but it's not like Go buy the Chinese one that I have.

SPEAKER_02

I ain't Oh my god.

SPEAKER_01

Oh. Well, so I got we were just chatting, and by the end of it, he was consider reconsidering his employment.

SPEAKER_02

Well, David, when you chat with people, you're I you don't give a shit what you say to people. So you just you probably went off on this poor guy.

SPEAKER_01

No, I didn't, but I just told him about what how his company is, and he greatly apologized. I mean, I'm sure he I mean it's a job, and he works in, you know, I mean, there's plenty of other opportunities.

SPEAKER_02

He greatly apologized and didn't charge David P.

SPEAKER_01

He didn't charge me nothing. So he but I was like, all right, let me just step this down degree by degree because we thought it was working. Then I looked and I saw a little bit of water. I felt water on the coils inside. I was like, okay, maybe it's gonna work. Um, yep, totally fine.

SPEAKER_02

All right.

SPEAKER_01

Knock on some wood, totally fine for now. I mean, I'm sure there'll be a day that it won't be. But he put it all back together and it started making all that racket, and that's why we thought it was the compressor going out. Then he put it all back together again and it didn't make a noise.

SPEAKER_02

So all right.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. So that was my air conditioning thing. But my question to you was would be if this happened to you and you had to pick one or the other, would you go with no air or no Wi-Fi?

SPEAKER_02

No Wi-Fi.

SPEAKER_01

Oh.

SPEAKER_02

I can't live without air.

SPEAKER_01

I so I've learned with my above fan and my my that travel fan. I would go without air. Because if I'm comfortable watching like a show or something, then I don't think about it.

SPEAKER_02

Okay. I've lived with both for seven days without. Because when we had the hurts. And I'll tell you, yeah, it was it, I didn't just do it for long, but seven days, no electricity in the house, so no air, no Wi-Fi, no TV, no nothing. But I just I'm just talking of age. That and I would rather live with no Wi-Fi.

SPEAKER_01

Okay. Have no air, still have Wi-Fi. Like you had that. That was the total experience. I'm just saying one or the other.

SPEAKER_02

Like no Wi-Fi.

SPEAKER_01

If you were able to have watch TV with fans and all of that, as normal, lights on, everything, but I think it would change your mind. I think it would change your mind.

SPEAKER_02

No, because I've had the air go out for a day or whatever. Like I had to wait for them to come in. For them to come.

SPEAKER_01

Um And you don't think you could do it.

SPEAKER_02

And I've had well, I mean, I had the fan. I had the I had uh the work fan, the work fan, the um the cruise fan like on me until it could get there and I could watch TV, but I it's just so uncomfortable.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, see, well, you're a little bit more sensitive.

SPEAKER_02

I'm apparently I'm sensitive about everything.

SPEAKER_01

You are. Have you met yourself? Yeah, she's very sensitive. Sensitive Sally. So well anyway, I would rather have no air than Wi-Fi. I I need Wi-Fi.

SPEAKER_02

You also weren't in the middle of summer either.

unknown

No.

SPEAKER_02

Do that shit in the middle of summer. Let me.

SPEAKER_01

That's when my air went out when I had to replace it. It was the hottest day of the year. And I um someone went and purchased a portable air conditioner. Like one of those little things that you pour the water in or whatever. No, you you vented out of the um you vented out of the window.

SPEAKER_02

Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_01

So like it was an air conditioner, a portable air conditioner unit.

SPEAKER_02

So there's one when we have our fantasy football draft, because it's in September and it's still hot, um, and we have it in the shop back there. Our commissioner uh brings this thing. It's like the size of the not the deep size of the chair, but it's like this tall. You pour some water in it and it blows like cold air on you. It's not like vented in or anything. A what?

SPEAKER_01

Swamp cooler.

SPEAKER_02

Oh, sure. Whatever.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

So um yeah, um, no, no, I can't go without AC. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

But then that thing, when my air got fixed, it that thing went back to the store. I had nothing, no part in that. But it happened. So I was at least comfortable downstairs. And then they tried to bring me one this time, and I'm like, nah, it's it's alright. They're like, well, we we don't like our any of our customers to have no air at all.

SPEAKER_02

Oh, the company did.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, but I think the next sentence, if I would have said yes, would have been, okay, it's gonna cost you this much. Like that these people, they don't do anything for free. They're not good people. Like, don't do business with them, and I'm not gonna say their name.

SPEAKER_02

You can text him on the side if you have his number.

SPEAKER_01

I'm like, so yeah. Um anyway. What do you have?

SPEAKER_02

And she said that she listened to our podcast. So thank you. Oh, and she one thing that she said was, you know, I she she was listening to the the plastics episode or whatever, and I said, um, I was like, yeah, I was like, our most listened episode is episode number four.

SPEAKER_01

SPEAKER_02

Of the pissing that's the pissing pants moment. And so I was giving her that, and she goes, All right, I'll go back to that one. But she's like, one thing that I noticed, like as I'm listening, I'm just like, I see this every time you guys come in here to get you back.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

She's like, this is no different than you guys just being here. And I was like, pretty much, you know.

SPEAKER_02

Oh my, you gotta get permission.

SPEAKER_01

Well, they'll put us on the other side.

SPEAKER_02

Right.

SPEAKER_01

In the private area. Keep us away from everybody else. Since we're so obnoxious when we get to the city.

SPEAKER_02

Well, it's a shit show every time. And then if Alyssa comes, it's even worse.

unknown

No.

SPEAKER_01

Jesus Christ.

SPEAKER_02

So anyway, um What was I going at? See what I'm talking about.

SPEAKER_01

No idea where what you were gonna say where it was going.

SPEAKER_02

What were we talking uh I have no clue. Was I just talking about the Okay, never mind. I'm just okay. So have you What is your question about the w uh stop? Stop! Either or was that your topic for the day?

SPEAKER_01

No, I have something else. Okay. I said I wasn't going to talk about that, but because we were talking about the AC on the boat, or ship, whatever you want to call it, um, I call it a boat until I get on the ship.

SPEAKER_02

No, it's a boat at all times.

SPEAKER_01

I know, but when I'm talking to the people, sometimes I still like I call it a ship because I don't want them to correct me. If I'm on land, absolutely I call it a boat all the time.

SPEAKER_02

And people still correct me, but Do you remember when like you would have like toys in the bathtub, you know, and it would be a boat?

SPEAKER_01

Not really, but I mean I know it happened.

SPEAKER_02

Okay. Oh my. I always called it a boat. It's always gonna be a boat. A canoe, it's gonna be a boat.

SPEAKER_01

Well, anyway, um, that's where that came up. I wasn't gonna bring that up at all.

SPEAKER_02

Um I hope so. Um think about chicken wings.

SPEAKER_01

Okay.

SPEAKER_02

Okay. Chicken wings.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

And think about ground beef and steaks.

SPEAKER_01

Okay.

SPEAKER_02

And all meat. All the stuff, right?

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

And when you go to a restaurant and you get five wings or ten wings, right? Okay, so five wings is two and a half chickens. And ten wings is five chickens. And that's for one feeding of you. So if I get ten wings, that's five chickens. Where the fuck are all these chickens coming from? A farm. No, there's not enough chickens in the world. There's just not enough. They're probably not even real. But that's what I'm saying. Just are we eating lab-grown chickens? Meat.

SPEAKER_01

Probably.

SPEAKER_02

That's not okay with me.

SPEAKER_01

Well, then become a vegetarian.

SPEAKER_02

I don't want to do that either because they have pesticides and all this shit.

SPEAKER_01

Become vegan.

SPEAKER_02

Vegan is vegetarian.

SPEAKER_01

No, it's not.

SPEAKER_02

It's partially in you'd eat.

SPEAKER_01

No, no, no, no, no, no, no. Before you offend one of these tree eaters.

SPEAKER_02

SPEAKER_01

A vegan, they eat, if it comes out of the ground, they eat it.

SPEAKER_02

Okay.

SPEAKER_01

If it does not eat.

SPEAKER_02

No vegetables.

SPEAKER_01

Right. No dairy, no cheese, no nothing. That's that is vegan? Vegan. Then you have vegetarian.

SPEAKER_02

SPEAKER_01

They eat everything but um meat. So but they can eat They'll eat dairy. Okay.

SPEAKER_02

But that comes from the cow.

SPEAKER_01

Some do, some don't. It's that's a personal thing.

SPEAKER_02

But there's goats and yeah.

SPEAKER_01

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

So I yeah. And my office that I'm at now. They they they there's none of them, everybody, I think, anyway. But my old office, I had pescatarians, vegetarians, and vegans. And I'm like, okay, this luncheon's gonna be fun. So anyway, um, but yeah. So just become a vegan.

SPEAKER_02

I just don't think there's enough chickens.

SPEAKER_01

Dirt and seeds.

SPEAKER_02

They were even saying that like the whole McDonald's thing and the hamburgers, that it would it would be like 93,000 cows would need to be killed every day just to supply McDonald's for like a day or a month or something.

SPEAKER_01

But I'll tell you this McDonald's cheeseburger is pretty damn good. And I'll eat the shit out of it. I don't care.

SPEAKER_02

Cheeseburger or quarter pounder?

SPEAKER_01

SPEAKER_02

Okay, well, what about all the chickens? I don't there's just not enough chicken. Jen, I here's the deal.

SPEAKER_01

If I I need to eat chicken, I just eat the chicken. I don't think about where it comes from or care. Do I get do I do I actually get the protein that it says? We don't know. But do I care? No.

SPEAKER_02

You don't these things don't ever No, I don't give a shit.

SPEAKER_01

Why do you think about all these things? Because it doesn't it doesn't make sense. That's why you can't sleep at night, because you're a conspiracy theorist.

SPEAKER_02

That's bullshit. First of all, it's just it just doesn't make sense. Like for you to eat a five-piece wing, you're killing two and a half chickens. Well And look at all the people in the world.

SPEAKER_01

They probably modified these things, so they have probably more wings than they should, so like they probably have four wings because they're modified somehow. I don't know. Extra wings or something. I who knows.

SPEAKER_02

Why that but why doesn't that concern you?

SPEAKER_01

Because I don't care. Why why let it concern you?

SPEAKER_02

Because what if we run out of food?

SPEAKER_01

You grow vegetables and you continue and you start shooting birds out of the sky. Speaking of- You go fishing.

SPEAKER_02

Okay, well what are you gonna do for red meat? And chickens. Chickens don't fly.

SPEAKER_01

Um, I don't know. I don't know. I guess I'll just eat a lot of eggs.

SPEAKER_02

The chicken! Oh my god!

SPEAKER_01

Don't be alive, don't create eggs. I'll just eat eggs, I'll get protein from eggs.

SPEAKER_02

But they might be genetically faltered eggs.

SPEAKER_01

I don't care. Why, why, why oh why do you care so much?

SPEAKER_02

Because I don't want to put bad things in my body. At this stage in my life. You know, for someone who watches a lot of TV, you, you just don't watch the right things.

SPEAKER_01

I watch something that I don't have to ever remotely think about. I I just need to just chill out. I'm not trying to sit on my couch and learn about where the fucking chicken came from or how there's so many.

SPEAKER_02

What's what was or how many might be needed. Yes!

SPEAKER_01

I I don't care. I don't care about that. Well is that your stomach?

SPEAKER_02

Yeah. That's that was over here. Jesus Christ. That might be an exit gas.

SPEAKER_01

Oh god. Um yeah, I don't care about that stuff. So you just sit here and like ponder it?

SPEAKER_02

Well, I think it's more a little bit. I think it's more be excuse me. Only because think of the children. The children that we know.

SPEAKER_01

Children. I don't know.

SPEAKER_02

We I don't like children either, but think of the children that we know, right?

SPEAKER_01

Okay.

SPEAKER_02

And think of all the stuff that is pumped through all of this food now, or that is genetically whatever. And then you have poor little one right now who eat organic.

SPEAKER_01

Pay the extra money.

SPEAKER_02

David, we don't know if the organic is real organic or not.

SPEAKER_01

Just you gotta eat, right? So you just go to the place and you buy the things you need and you hope to God it's right.

SPEAKER_02

I think I'm just gonna, you know, we talked about this before about buying straight from the farm.

SPEAKER_01

Okay. Well, how many times are you gonna talk about this before you actually do it?

SPEAKER_02

Let's go do it.

SPEAKER_01

I don't I'm just gonna go to the grocery store and buy the bits and parts that I need.

SPEAKER_02

Well, it's just like a hot dog. Like you won't eat a shitty hot dog.

SPEAKER_01

I beg to differ.

SPEAKER_02

You like beef hot dogs?

SPEAKER_01

I I prefer them, but if you just say, here's a hot dog, the only one I'm not gonna eat is the red one. That's what I'm saying! But you would have eaten a red hot dog. You can I have eaten red hot dogs. Right. I didn't have an option. It was this or nothing for lunch. Not at my house, but at other people's houses. But like, I mean Yeah. At the ballpark, you can get like two hot dogs for three dollars. Those are the shittiest hot dogs on the planet. But I eat them all the time. Instead of paying five dollars for one. Which ballpark? Downtown. Usually two hot dogs for three bucks? Something like that, yeah. They're I mean, it's the bottom of the barrel, like lips and assholes? I mean, probably. Yeah. I mean, I tried it once, it's not great, but if you were hungry, you I mean, I had to slather it with a bunch of stuff.

SPEAKER_02

Have you ever given a homeless person food and they said, Oh, I don't want that?

SPEAKER_01

Um, so I had a homeless person ask me for money and I said, I can meet you at McDonald's and I'll buy you some food. I'm not giving you any money. Right. And the response was, I don't want McDonald's. I said, Well, I guess you're not hungry. Right. The light turned green and I just left. I mean, I did offer.

SPEAKER_02

I will say this.

SPEAKER_01

I'm very proud that you did offer because But and and that, but see, but this is how I am, though. That one experience now for the the rest of the homeless's life, I'm never gonna stop. I'm never gonna offer because that one ungrateful person.

SPEAKER_02

You let one person ruin it for the other homelesses.

SPEAKER_01

Exactly. Just like if I see a car accident on the side of the street now. I I one time I went back and landed me in freaking court, and I got chastised by the prosecutor or whoever it was, the state, I don't know who it was. The def the defense. The defense. The defense. And sh that bitch asked me the same question 25 different ways, and I'm like, bitch, that's still my answer. Like, never again. So sorry if I see an accident, I do keep going like I didn't see it, because I'm not doing that again.

SPEAKER_02

But you're not supposed to leave the scene of an accident.

SPEAKER_01

I'm sorry. I I blinked and looked the other way. I don't know if it just happened or if it was there. I don't know. But the only reason I went back is because one of our friends said, Oh, but what if they're hurt and what if they die? And I went back. It was after St. Patrick's Day. I shouldn't have gone back, but I did. Um, but never again. Nope. So, yes, one person can ruin it for the whole world for me. David's gonna see me on the side of the road and just I don't think like people that I know I would do that to.

SPEAKER_02

I would fucking hope not, David.

SPEAKER_01

But true strangers, like I no, I'm not I I can't take that.

SPEAKER_02

What about an old lady?

SPEAKER_01

Do I need to?

SPEAKER_02

Do you do you hold the door for old ladies? Do you uh if you see them struggling out in the parking lot, are you gonna help them put their groceries in their car? Okay. I'm talking some humanity.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. I I do I would do any of that. Um I mean, we were at the at the flat track race. And I don't know if you were standing there, but when they I was like, okay, here comes a wagon full of like people and then there was yeah, on the thing, they brought a wagon up the ramp, and then they were walking down here. I'm like, um, this is stairs. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. I helped the guy get the wagon down with this kid in the thing. Like, so I'll do those kind of things, but if I offer you food and and you don't want that, I'm so sorry. Then use the money you collected on the side of the road and go buy what you want.

SPEAKER_02

Well, the majority of those people have like Mercedes hidden.

SPEAKER_01

They probably do.

SPEAKER_02

It's been seen a lot around here.

SPEAKER_01

But that's why I don't do shit like that. Because I don't I don't trust it.

SPEAKER_02

I won't hand any money. I'll hand a snack.

SPEAKER_01

Well, and I never have snacks in the car, so um, but yeah, no, I don't do that. I believe that where are we going with this?

SPEAKER_02

I have no idea.

SPEAKER_01

And me neither. Well, I asked my question, so um, well, so I okay, so So this came from the is there enough animals?

unknown

Oh yeah.

SPEAKER_02

Real life animals.

SPEAKER_01

I mean, probably I I don't know. I honestly no, I don't think so. But I mean, have you ever seen like I feel like I saw a commercial one time and it was like a chicken place, you know.

SPEAKER_02

A chicken place.

SPEAKER_01

I don't know the brand. I'm just saying it was a chicken, how they were saying it was like, you know, no hormones, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. They're like free range or whatever.

SPEAKER_02

Purdue chicken?

SPEAKER_01

Maybe.

SPEAKER_02

It's the father and the two sons? Maybe.

SPEAKER_01

I don't know. I'm just saying it. But oh jeez. It was a big field, and all these little chicks were, you know, running all around. They're probably fake. They're probably like AI generated? No, probably not, but they're probably like, you know, shot with the antibiotics just to get them to go. Because they're probably half dead. Um, because they're like created, they're not naturally created, I feel like. But I mean, it doesn't matter, it's fine. Just so, but seeing that, I think that there's enough chickens. From a commercial if they do it every day. If they get that many a day, then we're fine. I mean, I don't know if it's real or not, but if they get that many chickens in a day, we're totally fine. Well, how many get in a day? I don't know, but it it on the TV it looked like they couldn't even take a step without stepping on five of them.

SPEAKER_02

So five chickens down. I mean That's only a 10-piece. So have you noticed that And hold on, my next question on that.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_02

Because, you know, we get flats and drums. Are we killing the babies?

SPEAKER_01

I don't know. Are they babies or are they midget ones?

SPEAKER_02

SPEAKER_01

Or little little chicks.

SPEAKER_01

They do. But um yeah, I don't know.

SPEAKER_02

I'd like to know the the stage of a life uh the life stage of a chicken. Look it up. At what point do we s slaughter them?

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, any chicken people out there know? Like, can y'all give us a tour?

SPEAKER_02

Well, Shannon had chickens for a while, but she only had chickens to collect their eggs.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. Those those type of chickens are those are the same fucking chickens, aren't they? I don't think so.

SPEAKER_02

But we could have eaten those chickens.

SPEAKER_01

I don't I don't know.

SPEAKER_02

Shannon, we need you to step in here. You comment every now and again. Yeah, comment and let us know. What kind of chickens are we eating? The chickens that lay eggs. I know that there's like some weird silkies and some other stuff, like Oh, those are the weird-looking ones. With the hair. Yeah, yeah. But they lay eggs, I think.

SPEAKER_01

I don't know.

SPEAKER_02

So yeah, we we need a chicken tutorial. And I think he'll be able to give us that.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. And yeah, and do we only eat like certain kinds of chickens?

SPEAKER_02

Brands. Or no. Breeds.

SPEAKER_01

Breeds. Not brands. Well we eat I mean, so they come, there's they start as breeds and then they become brands.

SPEAKER_02

Okay, so what's the difference? You know, the white chickens that we always see like on cartoons and stuff?

SPEAKER_01

SPEAKER_01

Well, okay, yeah. That but I mean that's not all I do.
