Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello, Killing Nash. Hey there, it's tomorrow's show Wednesday, today Tuesday,
all right, so it's the twenty second Earth Day. Tomorrow
is the twenty third of April. Nothing rings a bail.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
We have nothing fancy on the tun't think so.
Speaker 1 (00:17):
Janey's coming to town. That's about all I got on
my calendar.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
That's special.
Speaker 1 (00:21):
Yeah, that will have a good time. I don't know
what you got going on in your lives. We've got
a day gang going on today at the Segra Park.
Speaker 2 (00:29):
Yeah, I mean that thing starts atting. That's a morning game,
eleven five, first pitch, and they've got specials on. Was
it Miller Light?
Speaker 1 (00:37):
It's two dollars Tuesday, brother, two dollars Miller Lights, hot dogs, popcorn,
a soft.
Speaker 2 (00:40):
Drinks, so get at it. Early days.
Speaker 1 (00:42):
Also a WLTX weather day.
Speaker 2 (00:45):
I'm not really sure what that means. We're having weather.
Speaker 1 (00:48):
I'm not sure they're paying good money for the sponsorship.
I'm sure.
Speaker 2 (00:51):
Yeah, good for them. I know. We got the big
Colonial Life Arena Monster Jam this weekend, and we're giving
away tickets all week with what you talking about and
qualifying folks for the pre show pit party. If you'd
like to go. Yesterday we did the or I should say,
this morning, we did the longest word we've ever done.
One of the shortest words we've ever done will be tomorrow.
(01:13):
It's four letters. It's brio.
Speaker 1 (01:15):
It's what brio, brio, br b r ioh yes, rio,
brio exciting, exciting and U stimulating. I think that's why
there's a toy company name Brio. They make exciting and
stimulating toys. I'm assuming exciting brio. I think it's it's
(01:40):
a it's not a Greek word. I don't know what
it is. I don't know what the origin of that
word is.
Speaker 2 (01:45):
Well, we you know. I'm going to say you were right,
even though that's not the exact wording of what we're
looking for. And again we're always looking for our definition,
so you still have to click it. Uh. The answer
is vigor of style or performance? The vigor of style
performance is brio?
Speaker 1 (02:03):
Does that say what the origin of the word is.
Speaker 2 (02:05):
I'm sure I could find that. I agree it might be.
Let's see the history of the word brio.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
It's not a European it's not an Old English word.
It's not No, I don't think let's.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
See brio origin. Well, why I look for that. I
can tell you. I just saw a crazy video of
a guy on a Delta flight from Atlanta to Chicago
and the roof of the plane fell in. Good lord
h Now, not the entire roof, but just a section
of it, and the videos got the passengers are trying
(02:42):
to hold the roof up, and then the flight attendants
come over with this like a bright yellow I'm gonna
call it duct tape, although I don't think it's officially
duct tape, and they basically duct tape the roof back together.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
Is it like the part of the compartments that hold
the baggage, Is that what's falling?
Speaker 2 (03:00):
It's below it. So if like when you open that up, yeah,
there's like that level. Apparently there's a section of maybe
two to three inches between the floor of that and
what you would see is the roof. That's what's fallen in.
So there's like electronics stuff hanging out.
Speaker 1 (03:18):
Oh great.
Speaker 2 (03:19):
Yeah. So, by the way, Brio's origin is Italian from
the mid eighteenth century, and that's why in eighteen eighty
four the Swedish toy company Brio is founded. Also the
soft drink Brio, a version of Chinocinato was created in Toronto,
(03:39):
Canada in nineteen fifty.
Speaker 1 (03:41):
I've never had a Brio, but I would order one.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
The Brio Italian Grill is a chain of restaurants launched
out of Orlando, Florida. That's right. So it's all about
the vigor. So we got all that going on at
the same time, Jonathan, when I was looking at some
of the weirder stories of the morning, Uh, this one
(04:05):
in Texas crazy got turned up another notch at the
Walmart this month this weekend. Now Walmart's on a Saturday night.
I don't know that I've been in one recently, but
I would imagine it's a pretty crazy place.
Speaker 1 (04:18):
I was in one last Saturday, late afternoon getting Little
Sarah's fishing rod and reel. Okay, again, a great South
Carolina product. Shakespeare did a good job making the Frozen.
It's got little Elsa and what's her name on it?
And what time is this at I'm gonna guess I
(04:40):
went over at like five point thirty.
Speaker 2 (04:42):
Okay, so I see to me, that's still afternoon.
Speaker 1 (04:44):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
When the lights go down in this Texas town, people
come out for the evening. And they were in Kilgore,
which is in East Texas. Police are report at eight
fifty nine they received the nine one one call about
a man trying to steal while holding a gun. Oh wow, Well,
less than ninety seconds later the police had arrived.
Speaker 1 (05:05):
And when they are pretty fast response to fellis, I
think they tend to be impressive.
Speaker 2 (05:09):
They tend to probably circle that walmart. I'm guessing at
a lot of activity on that activity. Yeah, So less
than ninety seconds later, it's too late. The man has
actually discharged the gun. Oh my god, but it was
an accident. He didn't he didn't mean to fire it,
nor was it an actual gun. It turns out it's
a flare gun and crap, and KLTV reports the flare
(05:35):
ricocheted off a couple of shelves, sending people scattering. For
Pever security footage shows a man sheepishly then just placed
the gun on the shelf while trying to walk out.
Police arrest forty eight year old Roy mac biggs of Longview,
who had attempted to hide ten and they like this
ten large items under his clothes. They don't say what
(05:57):
it is, but this guy looking like the marshant man
or whatever. Right, But he's got a pretty big bond
on him, a twenty five thousand dollars bond charges of
deadly conduct and theft of property. So but yeah, almost
almost burnt the walmarts to the ground.
Speaker 1 (06:13):
I would not want to be shot by a flare gun.
Just shoot me with a three fifty seven magnum, the
most powerful handgun ever made.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
Blow a man's head clean off.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
I would not want to get shot center mass with
a flare gun. Had that It's like a Roman candle
times a thousand.
Speaker 2 (06:33):
By the way, did I mean this is maybe going
to be uncomfortable for some people? I think I did.
I hear that the last execution that we had in
South Carolina that went by firing squad, it didn't hit,
it didn't take I didn't read that. It took him
like ninety seconds to die. They said, so he took
three to the chest and then sat there wheezing for
(06:56):
like ninety seconds or something. I read that like on
that Setaturday morning, because he was they were executing my
kind of Friday or whatever, and I was like, he
didn't die instantly. That was his worst fear.
Speaker 1 (07:08):
Sharky take it that he won't die. He's a ghost
he wouldn't go down, he won't go sharky.
Speaker 2 (07:18):
Yeah, ninety seconds might have been a bit of an exaggeration,
but I should look that up. But yeah, I was
shocked because you'd think, I mean, they're not point blank,
but they're pretty close, and they've got a target on
where your heart is. Brother, you think some smart alec
missed on purpose, just try to make it a little
(07:40):
slower for the rapist murderer.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
If that really happened like that, we would have already
read we'd be protest in the streets already. It can't
be true. It can't be true.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
Well, I thought I read it execution the anyway, as
I'm looking that story up the Major League Baseball this story,
I put this up specifically for you, Jonathan Rush. Oh, okay,
major League Baseball ranking of hot dogs at the parks.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
Now we're talking.
Speaker 2 (08:14):
Now. They didn't go by taste because that's subjective, but
they did go by price. So if you're looking for
the least expensive hot dog, you're going to want to
go to Arizona Diamondbacks at Chase Field. They only charged
three dollars and seven cents for.
Speaker 1 (08:30):
A hot suspect only because of the venue. I mean,
once you walk into an MLB park, it's kind of
like going to Disneyland. Everything's five times the price. So
you're calling it sus Yeah, I would yes, I would
not eat a three dollars hot dog at an MLB
park anywhere in this country.
Speaker 2 (08:46):
I was surprised to see the By the way, the
Braves come in at four to ten at Truest Park.
The five most expensive are the Rockies, the Mets, the
Texas Rangers, the Giants in San Francisco, and the San
Diego Padres have the most expensive. But again, the most
expensive one is seven dollars and ninety six cents, which
(09:08):
is surprisingly affordable in my estimation.
Speaker 1 (09:11):
I would bet that the Texas Rangers, she.
Speaker 2 (09:13):
Said, the most expensive is the Padres in San Diego.
The Rangers came in third at Globe Life Field with
a seven dollars nineteen cent I bet that's a damn
good hot dog. Why do you think the Texas one
would be better?
Speaker 1 (09:27):
It just feels like it's going to be a beef wiener,
not a pork, not a mixture.
Speaker 2 (09:33):
Hmm. Okay, you just have more trust in the Texas
I do. Okay. By the way, if you're looking for
food experiences with your hot dog, which might be kind
of more up your alley. Oh and I should also
mention beer prices averaging seven dollars and eighteen cents of
(09:55):
beer right now. But ballparks have specialtied ones. At the
Texas Rangers game, they have a burrito version of their
twenty four inch broomstick hot dog that they sell for
thirty five dollars and ninety nine cents. Also, the Rangers
offer a hot dog triple play. That's a chili cheese dog,
(10:17):
then a hot dog wrapped in bacon, and then a
third hot dog honoring whoever the opposing team is. They'll
create something special for that. Oh I'm ordering that, and
that is thirty two dollars and ninety nine cents.
Speaker 1 (10:29):
Wow, ten bucks a dog? Yeah, Bess is why so
great to go to Sega Park? The two dollars hot
dog on two long on Tuesday with a two dollars
mill of light soft drinks and hot dogs is pretty
damn good deal. But the two dollars hot dog is
Segara Park is pretty good. They got a pretty good
hot dog.
Speaker 2 (10:44):
What do they charge it? Like Costco and Sam's Clubs
for hot.
Speaker 1 (10:47):
Dogs oh, like a bug ninety of like a buck
nineteen best for the meal, and.
Speaker 2 (10:51):
Then you buy like the fifty cents soda or something
like that, so it's like two dollars.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
I believe it. I think for a dollar seventy nine
you get the soda and the dog and a small
pack of potato chips.
Speaker 2 (11:01):
My gosh, are we living in like nineteen seventy.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
Yeah, yeah, pretty much. When you go to Sam's Club,
you can get that, or you can get the pizza
for like a dollar nine and one if you'd rather.
So I've only done it once. I was waiting on
tires to be installed on a starve and so I
got the hot dog. Surprisingly not bad.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
So here I am. I'm reading about the execution on
PBS dot org. All right, pbis dot org reporting about
Mikal Maddy.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
He was a guy.
Speaker 2 (11:24):
Yeah, he'd killed several folks, including a police officer. Good
du cried out. As the shots hit him, his arms flexed.
A white target with the red bullseye over Maddy's heart
was pushed into his chest. He groaned two more times,
and then a third time. Forty five seconds later. His
breaths continued wheezing for about eighty seconds before taking one
(11:48):
final gasp.
Speaker 1 (11:49):
Oh, this is a problem.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
A doctor checked him for a little over a minute
and finally declared him dead at six oh five PM,
less than four minutes after the shots were fired.
Speaker 1 (11:59):
Wow, that's that's a problem.
Speaker 2 (12:01):
And he was hit with three bullets.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
Three bullets.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
So Madi, aged forty two, chose to die by the
three bullets to the heart. It didn't do it, wouldn't
it be. I don't know. I feel like maybe you should, like,
maybe take one of the head.
Speaker 1 (12:16):
Here's the deal. You're wrong. I just got sent us
to death. Brow tell you what I'll do. I'll cut
you a deal right now. No appeals. Not gonna argue it.
I want the same timeline as the next person who
takes the appeals. So we agree. I got twenty years
to sit here, all right. I get to choose my
diet plan.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
Oh my god.
Speaker 1 (12:37):
I mean nothing but hot dogs, fried chicken, fried fish,
fried pork chops, heavy gravy, sawmeal, gravy, macaroni and cheese.
Speaker 3 (12:46):
I'm doing all that. I'll be dead your honor, my
own mouth. I will eat myself yourself to death. Well
to die with a smile.
Speaker 1 (12:57):
Yeah, I don't want a doctor's appointment. I don't want nothing.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
Do not resuscitate and got a total DNR on me.
Speaker 1 (13:04):
I will die coronary heart disease, probably in a massive
stroke and a and a major heart attack. Just leave
me to my own devices.
Speaker 2 (13:15):
Looking forward to it. Yes, getting my just desserts.
Speaker 1 (13:20):
And I don't want anybody looking at me with that
face like my wife.
Speaker 2 (13:25):
What faces?
Speaker 1 (13:26):
Eat a piece of fried chicken. I don't want the
guards saying anything about my diet.
Speaker 2 (13:30):
I'm gonna fat, you're getting you're getting fat.
Speaker 1 (13:33):
You want another piece of this chicken?
Speaker 2 (13:35):
Yes, I wrote the fat back, fat back.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
I went to Shechilie's barbecue the other day. I was
eating author buffet and I actually had not been inside
the eat aut the bufet in a long time. And
Sally's coming along. She's fixing like the ultra healthy version.
She went to the salad bar and all that. You
give me whatever you want. Sure you don't charge any extra.
It's all all day, eat whatever you want you want
(14:00):
to salad bar. Fine, go knock yourself out. Get the
low cow dressing.
Speaker 2 (14:03):
I don't care you drink skim milk because you don't
think you can drink.
Speaker 1 (14:06):
Exactly going to skim milk. They got that too, healthy
orange juices. All that's available, whatever you want. I'm over
there next to the fried chicken and a big tub
of barbecue with a bat back, and I'm like, look
at this fat back on the buffet. Brother, this is
a good day.
Speaker 2 (14:23):
Did Sally see you there?
Speaker 1 (14:25):
She saw it. We had already had a healthy smoothie
on the way, and she said, well, since we're going
to stop it, she leaves to pick up a plate
for your dad, why don't we just go inside and
the buffet. I said, now, you tell me, I've just
drank sixteen ounces of a smoothie.
Speaker 2 (14:41):
But don't think I can't get five pieces of chicken down.
Watch me, girl. So all right, So apparently these two
guys are friends Jonathan, and they're both married and their
wives are becoming friends, and so they all decided, as
(15:02):
two couples, we're going to double date and go out
on the you know, on the town, and we're going
to go to this fancy schmancy restaurant. They don't say
the name of the restaurant. I'm just picking it up
here where she uh, we've we had pasta and beer
that's what this one couple had. They seem to order
(15:23):
everything off the menu, including high dollar cocktails. Well, then
when they come to bring the bill, the guy on
the other side says, why don't we just split it?
And I said, are you kidding me?
Speaker 1 (15:39):
Are you kidding me?
Speaker 2 (15:40):
And then I kind of little argument broke out because
the other guy's like, are what are you trying to
embarrass me? You want to you just want to itemize
everything here. You just want to go down. You want
to go down the list of what what the condiments
cost or whatever.
Speaker 1 (15:55):
How do you want to break this down? Mm hmm,
So who's the jar? The guy who wanted the damn
split the bill? I got idea, let's not split it.
We only we only ordered the Uh she got a
salad and a water in a water. Yeah. So look,
(16:16):
we're like twelve bucks into it. Over here.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
You pick up the you pick up the bill, and
I'll I'll venmo you twelve bucks.
Speaker 1 (16:25):
I'll tip the valet dude. I know you're too tight
to tip him, so I'll tip the valet dude because
we're in my car.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
I don't understand. Why is it like hard to say, uh,
just separate checks? I don't think that that's a hard
thing to say.
Speaker 1 (16:40):
No, that's separate checks.
Speaker 2 (16:43):
I don't we just split it? Make it easy.
Speaker 1 (16:46):
Why don't I just pay your damn mortgage.
Speaker 2 (16:48):
It's not It's really no difficult for me to say.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
Split the We're telling you this is why these people
at some point will be eating by themselves. Nobody will
ever go to dinner with them. It happened to me
one time. Never going to dinner with those people again.
Speaker 2 (17:03):
I'd be interested to hear from the wife of that
guy who suggested that they split it. How does she
feel about it? Does she is she proud of her man?
Speaker 1 (17:11):
And it was Sally's family. Oh, I said, I'm not
going to dinner with him again. And she said, she said,
that was that was a little uncalled for, a little
a little uncalled for it. You want to see the receipt.
Oh so you paid it? Oh yeah, they split it.
They split it for like five different ways, because it
was it was like a table of like fifty people.
(17:33):
So I had gone and we were towards the end
of my vacation. This is when I had Jennie John
David an Lee. So close to the end of the vacation,
and we're way over budget on vacation. We're so way
over budget at this point because I fell at a
weird time of the year, is like three days before payday.
(17:54):
So now I'm like cash flowing this thing, thinking, all right,
unless I'm gonna start pulling out credit cards here, if
we're just going to live off the checking account, I'm
going to have to go to the credit card just
to get gas to go home. So Jenny and John, no,
David and Lee were not not born yet. Jennie and
John each had the child's pizza. I think Sally had
(18:17):
like a chicken pasta thing, and I forgot money. It
wasn't something expensive, no drinks, nothing. Well, the other thirty
people in the party were ordering like bottles of champagne
and stuff, and they just split it like five or
six ways. I can I tell you right now, I am.
(18:38):
I can probably go find the damn receipt.
Speaker 2 (18:40):
I still got a sock drawer or something.
Speaker 1 (18:42):
One hundred and seventy eight dollars and twelve cents. I
paid for two child's pizzas, a chicken parmesan and whatever
I ordered, which was back.
Speaker 2 (18:50):
In like thirty years ago. Yes, so it's like not
even like two money.
Speaker 1 (18:56):
No, no, no, there's like six it's like thirty bucks
for us with the tip.
Speaker 2 (19:01):
Yeah, but that's like six hundred dollars today. Yeah, in
today's money. No, never going to dinner with them again.
Speaker 1 (19:12):
And Sally's one of Sally's family members said, well, this
is the way that we just do it because we're family,
and this is you know, we're all from the big cities.
This is where we do it. I'll do it in
a little South Carolina. Oh I got an idea. Don't
come back to little South Carolina. Stay your grass in
Boston where they were from Boston. Who remembers and who cares?
Speaker 2 (19:32):
Oh? So you haven't even seen these people? No, I
didn't seen them. I remember some of them have died.
Speaker 1 (19:36):
I did't go to their funeral for fear I'd have
to pick up the tab for the damn buffet. What
am I here to facilitate everything? I'm the only guy
here not making a million dollars a year?
Speaker 2 (19:45):
Are we splitting the burial here? I'm in that.
Speaker 1 (19:51):
I've raised a family of four at that point, with
two more on the one I didn't even know.
Speaker 2 (19:58):
All right, Well, we'll break all that down tomorrow. What
you did just hack me off to hit a sore spot.
I'm sorry. I think back on the hot dogs that'll
make you, that'll bring your joy. The hot dogs will
bring you joy. You can go on down to Atlanta Braves.
They've got the fourth least expensive hot dog in Major
League Baseball.
Speaker 1 (20:16):
It's great, Okay. Still couldn't afford to take that family.
How much for the beers again? Oh? How was this
a bottle champagne?
Speaker 2 (20:24):
Yeah? Oh my gosh, yeah, well.
Speaker 1 (20:26):
Before drinks are probably fifty bucks each. I can't afford
to hang out with these people.
Speaker 2 (20:31):
I'll tell you where you're not going to go is
the Washington Nationals. The Washington Nationals just to have one beer.
One beer at a Washington Nationals game eighteen dollars, fifteen
dollars and forty cents. Wow, that's because they got all
that DC you know. Oh, hell, politician money.
Speaker 1 (20:46):
If I'm working in the in those five zip codes,
damn right, fifteen forty richest zip codes in America, all
surrounding d C.
Speaker 2 (20:55):
Fifteen forty for a cup of beer.
Speaker 1 (21:00):
All right, Hey, what's going on in your neighborhood? What
can we talk about it? And make you angry.
Speaker 2 (21:06):
Yes, that's what we're here for.

It's four letters. It's brio.
Speaker 1 (01:15):
It's what brio, brio, br b r ioh yes, rio,
brio exciting, exciting and U stimulating. I think that's why
there's a toy company name Brio. They make exciting and
stimulating toys. I'm assuming exciting brio. I think it's it's
(01:40):
a it's not a Greek word. I don't know what
it is. I don't know what the origin of that
word is.
Speaker 2 (01:45):
Well, we you know. I'm going to say you were right,
even though that's not the exact wording of what we're
looking for. And again we're always looking for our definition,
so you still have to click it. Uh. The answer
is vigor of style or performance? The vigor of style
performance is brio?
Speaker 1 (02:03):
Does that say what the origin of the word is.
Speaker 2 (02:05):
I'm sure I could find that. I agree it might be.
Let's see the history of the word brio.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
It's not a European it's not an Old English word.
It's not No, I don't think let's.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
See brio origin. Well, why I look for that. I
can tell you. I just saw a crazy video of
a guy on a Delta flight from Atlanta to Chicago
and the roof of the plane fell in. Good lord
h Now, not the entire roof, but just a section
of it, and the videos got the passengers are trying
(02:42):
to hold the roof up, and then the flight attendants
come over with this like a bright yellow I'm gonna
call it duct tape, although I don't think it's officially
duct tape, and they basically duct tape the roof back together.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
Is it like the part of the compartments that hold
the baggage, Is that what's falling?
Speaker 2 (03:00):
It's below it. So if like when you open that up, yeah,
there's like that level. Apparently there's a section of maybe
two to three inches between the floor of that and
what you would see is the roof. That's what's fallen in.
So there's like electronics stuff hanging out.
Speaker 1 (03:18):
Oh great.
Speaker 2 (03:19):
Yeah. So, by the way, Brio's origin is Italian from
the mid eighteenth century, and that's why in eighteen eighty
four the Swedish toy company Brio is founded. Also the
soft drink Brio, a version of Chinocinato was created in Toronto,
(03:39):
Canada in nineteen fifty.
Speaker 1 (03:41):
I've never had a Brio, but I would order one.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
The Brio Italian Grill is a chain of restaurants launched
out of Orlando, Florida. That's right. So it's all about
the vigor. So we got all that going on at
the same time, Jonathan, when I was looking at some
of the weirder stories of the morning, Uh, this one
(04:05):
in Texas crazy got turned up another notch at the
Walmart this month this weekend. Now Walmart's on a Saturday night.
I don't know that I've been in one recently, but
I would imagine it's a pretty crazy place.
Speaker 1 (04:18):
I was in one last Saturday, late afternoon getting Little
Sarah's fishing rod and reel. Okay, again, a great South
Carolina product. Shakespeare did a good job making the Frozen.
It's got little Elsa and what's her name on it?
And what time is this at I'm gonna guess I
(04:40):
went over at like five point thirty.
Speaker 2 (04:42):
Okay, so I see to me, that's still afternoon.
Speaker 1 (04:44):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
When the lights go down in this Texas town, people
come out for the evening. And they were in Kilgore,
which is in East Texas. Police are report at eight
fifty nine they received the nine one one call about
a man trying to steal while holding a gun. Oh wow, Well,
less than ninety seconds later the police had arrived.
Speaker 1 (05:05):
And when they are pretty fast response to fellis, I
think they tend to be impressive.
Speaker 2 (05:09):
They tend to probably circle that walmart. I'm guessing at
a lot of activity on that activity. Yeah, So less
than ninety seconds later, it's too late. The man has
actually discharged the gun. Oh my god, but it was
an accident. He didn't he didn't mean to fire it,
nor was it an actual gun. It turns out it's
a flare gun and crap, and KLTV reports the flare
(05:35):
ricocheted off a couple of shelves, sending people scattering. For
Pever security footage shows a man sheepishly then just placed
the gun on the shelf while trying to walk out.
Police arrest forty eight year old Roy mac biggs of Longview,
who had attempted to hide ten and they like this
ten large items under his clothes. They don't say what
(05:57):
it is, but this guy looking like the marshant man
or whatever. Right, But he's got a pretty big bond
on him, a twenty five thousand dollars bond charges of
deadly conduct and theft of property. So but yeah, almost
almost burnt the walmarts to the ground.
Speaker 1 (06:13):
I would not want to be shot by a flare gun.
Just shoot me with a three fifty seven magnum, the
most powerful handgun ever made.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
Blow a man's head clean off.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
I would not want to get shot center mass with
a flare gun. Had that It's like a Roman candle
times a thousand.
Speaker 2 (06:33):
By the way, did I mean this is maybe going
to be uncomfortable for some people? I think I did.
I hear that the last execution that we had in
South Carolina that went by firing squad, it didn't hit,
it didn't take I didn't read that. It took him
like ninety seconds to die. They said, so he took
three to the chest and then sat there wheezing for
(06:56):
like ninety seconds or something. I read that like on
that Setaturday morning, because he was they were executing my
kind of Friday or whatever, and I was like, he
didn't die instantly. That was his worst fear.
Speaker 1 (07:08):
Sharky take it that he won't die. He's a ghost
he wouldn't go down, he won't go sharky.
Speaker 2 (07:18):
Yeah, ninety seconds might have been a bit of an exaggeration,
but I should look that up. But yeah, I was
shocked because you'd think, I mean, they're not point blank,
but they're pretty close, and they've got a target on
where your heart is. Brother, you think some smart alec
missed on purpose, just try to make it a little
(07:40):
slower for the rapist murderer.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
If that really happened like that, we would have already
read we'd be protest in the streets already. It can't
be true. It can't be true.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
Well, I thought I read it execution the anyway, as
I'm looking that story up the Major League Baseball this story,
I put this up specifically for you, Jonathan Rush. Oh, okay,
major League Baseball ranking of hot dogs at the parks.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
Now we're talking.
Speaker 2 (08:14):
Now. They didn't go by taste because that's subjective, but
they did go by price. So if you're looking for
the least expensive hot dog, you're going to want to
go to Arizona Diamondbacks at Chase Field. They only charged
three dollars and seven cents for.
Speaker 1 (08:30):
A hot suspect only because of the venue. I mean,
once you walk into an MLB park, it's kind of
like going to Disneyland. Everything's five times the price. So
you're calling it sus Yeah, I would yes, I would
not eat a three dollars hot dog at an MLB
park anywhere in this country.
Speaker 2 (08:46):
I was surprised to see the By the way, the
Braves come in at four to ten at Truest Park.
The five most expensive are the Rockies, the Mets, the
Texas Rangers, the Giants in San Francisco, and the San
Diego Padres have the most expensive. But again, the most
expensive one is seven dollars and ninety six cents, which
(09:08):
is surprisingly affordable in my estimation.
Speaker 1 (09:11):
I would bet that the Texas Rangers, she.
Speaker 2 (09:13):
Said, the most expensive is the Padres in San Diego.
The Rangers came in third at Globe Life Field with
a seven dollars nineteen cent I bet that's a damn
good hot dog. Why do you think the Texas one
would be better?
Speaker 1 (09:27):
It just feels like it's going to be a beef wiener,
not a pork, not a mixture.
Speaker 2 (09:33):
Hmm. Okay, you just have more trust in the Texas
I do. Okay. By the way, if you're looking for
food experiences with your hot dog, which might be kind
of more up your alley. Oh and I should also
mention beer prices averaging seven dollars and eighteen cents of
(09:55):
beer right now. But ballparks have specialtied ones. At the
Texas Rangers game, they have a burrito version of their
twenty four inch broomstick hot dog that they sell for
thirty five dollars and ninety nine cents. Also, the Rangers
offer a hot dog triple play. That's a chili cheese dog,
(10:17):
then a hot dog wrapped in bacon, and then a
third hot dog honoring whoever the opposing team is. They'll
create something special for that. Oh I'm ordering that, and
that is thirty two dollars and ninety nine cents.
Speaker 1 (10:29):
Wow, ten bucks a dog? Yeah, Bess is why so
great to go to Sega Park? The two dollars hot
dog on two long on Tuesday with a two dollars
mill of light soft drinks and hot dogs is pretty
damn good deal. But the two dollars hot dog is
Segara Park is pretty good. They got a pretty good
hot dog.
Speaker 2 (10:44):
What do they charge it? Like Costco and Sam's Clubs
for hot.
Speaker 1 (10:47):
Dogs oh, like a bug ninety of like a buck
nineteen best for the meal, and.
Speaker 2 (10:51):
Then you buy like the fifty cents soda or something
like that, so it's like two dollars.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
I believe it. I think for a dollar seventy nine
you get the soda and the dog and a small
pack of potato chips.
Speaker 2 (11:01):
My gosh, are we living in like nineteen seventy.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
Yeah, yeah, pretty much. When you go to Sam's Club,
you can get that, or you can get the pizza
for like a dollar nine and one if you'd rather.
So I've only done it once. I was waiting on
tires to be installed on a starve and so I
got the hot dog. Surprisingly not bad.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
So here I am. I'm reading about the execution on
PBS dot org. All right, pbis dot org reporting about
Mikal Maddy.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
He was a guy.
Speaker 2 (11:24):
Yeah, he'd killed several folks, including a police officer. Good
du cried out. As the shots hit him, his arms flexed.
A white target with the red bullseye over Maddy's heart
was pushed into his chest. He groaned two more times,
and then a third time. Forty five seconds later. His
breaths continued wheezing for about eighty seconds before taking one
(11:48):
final gasp.
Speaker 1 (11:49):
Oh, this is a problem.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
A doctor checked him for a little over a minute
and finally declared him dead at six oh five PM,
less than four minutes after the shots were fired.
Speaker 1 (11:59):
Wow, that's that's a problem.
Speaker 2 (12:01):
And he was hit with three bullets.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
Three bullets.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
So Madi, aged forty two, chose to die by the
three bullets to the heart. It didn't do it, wouldn't
it be. I don't know. I feel like maybe you should, like,
maybe take one of the head.
Speaker 1 (12:16):
Here's the deal. You're wrong. I just got sent us
to death. Brow tell you what I'll do. I'll cut
you a deal right now. No appeals. Not gonna argue it.
I want the same timeline as the next person who
takes the appeals. So we agree. I got twenty years
to sit here, all right. I get to choose my
diet plan.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
Oh my god.
Speaker 1 (12:37):
I mean nothing but hot dogs, fried chicken, fried fish,
fried pork chops, heavy gravy, sawmeal, gravy, macaroni and cheese.
Speaker 3 (12:46):
I'm doing all that. I'll be dead your honor, my
own mouth. I will eat myself yourself to death. Well
to die with a smile.
Speaker 1 (12:57):
Yeah, I don't want a doctor's appointment. I don't want nothing.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
Do not resuscitate and got a total DNR on me.
Speaker 1 (13:04):
I will die coronary heart disease, probably in a massive
stroke and a and a major heart attack. Just leave
me to my own devices.
Speaker 2 (13:15):
Looking forward to it. Yes, getting my just desserts.
Speaker 1 (13:20):
And I don't want anybody looking at me with that
face like my wife.
Speaker 2 (13:25):
What faces?
Speaker 1 (13:26):
Eat a piece of fried chicken. I don't want the
guards saying anything about my diet.
Speaker 2 (13:30):
I'm gonna fat, you're getting you're getting fat.
Speaker 1 (13:33):
You want another piece of this chicken?
Speaker 2 (13:35):
Yes, I wrote the fat back, fat back.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
I went to Shechilie's barbecue the other day. I was
eating author buffet and I actually had not been inside
the eat aut the bufet in a long time. And
Sally's coming along. She's fixing like the ultra healthy version.
She went to the salad bar and all that. You
give me whatever you want. Sure you don't charge any extra.
It's all all day, eat whatever you want you want
(14:00):
to salad bar. Fine, go knock yourself out. Get the
low cow dressing.
Speaker 2 (14:03):
I don't care you drink skim milk because you don't
think you can drink.
Speaker 1 (14:06):
Exactly going to skim milk. They got that too, healthy
orange juices. All that's available, whatever you want. I'm over
there next to the fried chicken and a big tub
of barbecue with a bat back, and I'm like, look
at this fat back on the buffet. Brother, this is
a good day.
Speaker 2 (14:23):
Did Sally see you there?
Speaker 1 (14:25):
She saw it. We had already had a healthy smoothie
on the way, and she said, well, since we're going
to stop it, she leaves to pick up a plate
for your dad, why don't we just go inside and
the buffet. I said, now, you tell me, I've just
drank sixteen ounces of a smoothie.
Speaker 2 (14:41):
But don't think I can't get five pieces of chicken down.
Watch me, girl. So all right, So apparently these two
guys are friends Jonathan, and they're both married and their
wives are becoming friends, and so they all decided, as
(15:02):
two couples, we're going to double date and go out
on the you know, on the town, and we're going
to go to this fancy schmancy restaurant. They don't say
the name of the restaurant. I'm just picking it up
here where she uh, we've we had pasta and beer
that's what this one couple had. They seem to order
(15:23):
everything off the menu, including high dollar cocktails. Well, then
when they come to bring the bill, the guy on
the other side says, why don't we just split it?
And I said, are you kidding me?
Speaker 1 (15:39):
Are you kidding me?
Speaker 2 (15:40):
And then I kind of little argument broke out because
the other guy's like, are what are you trying to
embarrass me? You want to you just want to itemize
everything here. You just want to go down. You want
to go down the list of what what the condiments
cost or whatever.
Speaker 1 (15:55):
How do you want to break this down? Mm hmm,
So who's the jar? The guy who wanted the damn
split the bill? I got idea, let's not split it.
We only we only ordered the Uh she got a
salad and a water in a water. Yeah. So look,
(16:16):
we're like twelve bucks into it. Over here.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
You pick up the you pick up the bill, and
I'll I'll venmo you twelve bucks.
Speaker 1 (16:25):
I'll tip the valet dude. I know you're too tight
to tip him, so I'll tip the valet dude because
we're in my car.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
I don't understand. Why is it like hard to say, uh,
just separate checks? I don't think that that's a hard
thing to say.
Speaker 1 (16:40):
No, that's separate checks.
Speaker 2 (16:43):
I don't we just split it? Make it easy.
Speaker 1 (16:46):
Why don't I just pay your damn mortgage.
Speaker 2 (16:48):
It's not It's really no difficult for me to say.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
Split the We're telling you this is why these people
at some point will be eating by themselves. Nobody will
ever go to dinner with them. It happened to me
one time. Never going to dinner with those people again.
Speaker 2 (17:03):
I'd be interested to hear from the wife of that
guy who suggested that they split it. How does she
feel about it? Does she is she proud of her man?
Speaker 1 (17:11):
And it was Sally's family. Oh, I said, I'm not
going to dinner with him again. And she said, she said,
that was that was a little uncalled for, a little
a little uncalled for it. You want to see the receipt.
Oh so you paid it? Oh yeah, they split it.
They split it for like five different ways, because it
was it was like a table of like fifty people.
(17:33):
So I had gone and we were towards the end
of my vacation. This is when I had Jennie John
David an Lee. So close to the end of the vacation,
and we're way over budget on vacation. We're so way
over budget at this point because I fell at a
weird time of the year, is like three days before payday.
(17:54):
So now I'm like cash flowing this thing, thinking, all right,
unless I'm gonna start pulling out credit cards here, if
we're just going to live off the checking account, I'm
going to have to go to the credit card just
to get gas to go home. So Jenny and John, no,
David and Lee were not not born yet. Jennie and
John each had the child's pizza. I think Sally had
(18:17):
like a chicken pasta thing, and I forgot money. It
wasn't something expensive, no drinks, nothing. Well, the other thirty
people in the party were ordering like bottles of champagne
and stuff, and they just split it like five or
six ways. I can I tell you right now, I am.
(18:38):
I can probably go find the damn receipt.
Speaker 2 (18:40):
I still got a sock drawer or something.
Speaker 1 (18:42):
One hundred and seventy eight dollars and twelve cents. I
paid for two child's pizzas, a chicken parmesan and whatever
I ordered, which was back.
Speaker 2 (18:50):
In like thirty years ago. Yes, so it's like not
even like two money.
Speaker 1 (18:56):
No, no, no, there's like six it's like thirty bucks
for us with the tip.
Speaker 2 (19:01):
Yeah, but that's like six hundred dollars today. Yeah, in
today's money. No, never going to dinner with them again.
Speaker 1 (19:12):
And Sally's one of Sally's family members said, well, this
is the way that we just do it because we're family,
and this is you know, we're all from the big cities.
This is where we do it. I'll do it in
a little South Carolina. Oh I got an idea. Don't
come back to little South Carolina. Stay your grass in
Boston where they were from Boston. Who remembers and who cares?
Speaker 2 (19:32):
Oh? So you haven't even seen these people? No, I
didn't seen them. I remember some of them have died.
Speaker 1 (19:36):
I did't go to their funeral for fear I'd have
to pick up the tab for the damn buffet. What
am I here to facilitate everything? I'm the only guy
here not making a million dollars a year?
Speaker 2 (19:45):
Are we splitting the burial here? I'm in that.
Speaker 1 (19:51):
I've raised a family of four at that point, with
two more on the one I didn't even know.
Speaker 2 (19:58):
All right, Well, we'll break all that down tomorrow. What
you did just hack me off to hit a sore spot.
I'm sorry. I think back on the hot dogs that'll
make you, that'll bring your joy. The hot dogs will
bring you joy. You can go on down to Atlanta Braves.
They've got the fourth least expensive hot dog in Major
League Baseball.
Speaker 1 (20:16):
It's great, Okay. Still couldn't afford to take that family.
How much for the beers again? Oh? How was this
a bottle champagne?
Speaker 2 (20:24):
Yeah? Oh my gosh, yeah, well.
Speaker 1 (20:26):
Before drinks are probably fifty bucks each. I can't afford
to hang out with these people.
Speaker 2 (20:31):
I'll tell you where you're not going to go is
the Washington Nationals. The Washington Nationals just to have one beer.
One beer at a Washington Nationals game eighteen dollars, fifteen
dollars and forty cents. Wow, that's because they got all
that DC you know. Oh, hell, politician money.
Speaker 1 (20:46):
If I'm working in the in those five zip codes,
damn right, fifteen forty richest zip codes in America, all
