Greetings, Welcome to another episode of Off the Air, the
weekly podcast from the Lynch and Taco Show lynchon Taco
Morning Show on one O one one w.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
J r R.
Speaker 1 (00:10):
I'm Pat Lynch, Taco Bob across the console from me,
as always.
Speaker 2 (00:15):
Thursday Friday before you know it, as if you're listeners
live right now.
Speaker 1 (00:21):
Which if you aren't, Hello to everybody on Facebook Live.
If you got anything to chime in with or stuff
you want to bring up, feel free's it's all on
the table for the most part, as long as it's legal. Anyway.
I guess the big screaming deal right now across the
news is the snow in Florida event this week. Come
(00:41):
on that man.
Speaker 2 (00:42):
Yeah there was even some snow, I believe this morning in.
Speaker 1 (00:45):
Okalla, Marion County. Yeah, yeah, I was. I'm gonna tell
you flat out, man, it was a tad bit uh
jealous yesterday as the whole North Florida area was getting
that snow coming down. And it's not just the uh
you know, the one off. Oh, there's enough on the
windshield to make a little tiny snowball. This is inches
(01:07):
and inches at record snowfall was at Milton Florida in
the panandle with ten inches of snow.
Speaker 2 (01:13):
It was so cool to see all the different videos
of all the college kids who a lot of them
that are at the you know like FSU, and a
lot of them are from Florida because it can stay
within the state and get the bright futures if they
earned it. And to see them being Florida kids knowing
that they some of them never seen snow, and watching
them have snowball fights and you know, sliding down a
(01:35):
hill on a trash candle, and it was awesome. And
I told you yesterday the little kids on the news,
that was the best ever because you know, those Florida
kids have never seen snow. You know, like the six
and eight year old, we saw whatever, and I mean
the closest they've seen his ice probably.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
It's funny you brought that up. You're almost taking the
words right out of my mouth. I when stuff like
this happens, and we've had and you know, bounce with
little bits of snow here and there over the years,
it's big news. But I always will flash back to
the first time I ever saw snow in the state
(02:12):
of Florida as a little kid nineteen seventy seven, there
was a snow event and it made it as far
south as Miami. And you know, I grew up in
South Florida, and you know it heard even as a
little kid. You know, sometimes it'll get you know, cold
enough to snow in Florida, but not down here in
(02:32):
South Florida. Always living the time. And I just remember
leaving to walk to school, which I did every morning.
I walked to school with my sisters.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
In the days that it was safe to do that
without having to worry about a white van pulling up.
Speaker 1 (02:48):
And we walk out the front door, and I knew
it was cold. We you know, parents, you know, make
sure you put a jacket on, well whatever, so you know,
we put on our jackets, walked out and yeah, there
was some flakes coming down. Yeah, And I had never
really I had seen snow before that, but I was
(03:08):
too young to remember it. Parents took us way up
north into Canada for a wedding, family wedding, but I
don't really even remember it. So this is the first
time I ever recall seeing snow, and it took a
second for me to realize what was going on. And
my sisters were with my younger sisters on it's snowing.
They're like, no, it is look look. So we stood
there in disbelief. So I went back into the house
(03:31):
to find my mom, who I'll never forget this. She
was getting ready for work in her room, and uh,
I just barged right in. She had nothing on but
a town Oh god. She's like, Patrick, hey, Mo, it's snowing.
She goes, go get to school. No, it's snowing, and
she she wouldn't believe me. And a few seconds later,
(03:55):
one of my sisters comes walking in, Mom, you gonna
come out. And as soon as one of my sisters says, now,
all of a sudden, it's snowing and she's got to
see this, well.
Speaker 2 (04:02):
Yeah she believes that. So, uh, you know, I remember
the snow that you're talking about because it was rare
that it made it. I was six years old at
the time. It was rare because I remember I was
in like K or first grade, and I remember it
was rare that it made it down to Miami, as
you said, so in Orlando there was more yeah, yeah,
and it was. It was it was super super cool.
(04:25):
I remember walking to Lake Mount Elementary and we're walking
along and I hated school in those days. I mean,
and I remember walking along and we're we're grabbing the
icicles off the trees that are hanging and eating them.
Even another they taste like well water and stuff. I
don't mean to interrupt your story here. I wanted to
get back to it. But random, Bobby, they have big
(04:47):
fat asses, comment coming in via Facebook life. Oh yeah, Bobby,
they all have such big fat asses.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
Rest in peace. O. Mah yeah.
Speaker 2 (04:55):
I reminded my mama that the other day. I said, yeah, listeners,
text listeners are starting text in now with that body
now have some big fat asses and yelling it like
that about the nursing home ladies from the Islands. And
I'm like, oh my, you don't have your hearing aids in.
But yeah, I remember walking to Lakemont and that snow
(05:16):
and it was so wild, and I also remember it
doing it. I want to say it would have been
probably the eighties because I was working at Charlie's Lobster
House and uh, and I walked out and everybody's like, dude,
you got to come out here. There's flotteries coming out.
And went out there and then I went to open
the door on my Love Love Wagon. Yeah, my stage
(05:38):
wagon Plymouth Fluri, and it snapped the lock. It didn't
snap the key, it just stripped the lock because it
was so frozen. And then you know ice on the windshield.
We're all going out. It's like, you know, snowy, sleety
kind of stuff. It wasn't as bad as that other one.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
Yeah, but it is. For those of you who are
transplants from points north, you probably just roll your eyes
at all this, But trust us when we tell you,
coming from a couple of Native Floridians having snow, whether
it's just a little flurry or this round where it
piled up in places, is a huge deal here.
Speaker 2 (06:14):
Yeah, it really is. And again as when we were kids,
it was. It was super cool. So I was happy
to see the kids on the news yesterday, not just
the college kids. I'm talking about the you know, a
six year old I mentioned to two are the Facebook
live hugs from Gloria eighty eight or eighty nine was
a cold one. Yeah, that's the one where I broke
(06:36):
my ox. And then this one from Beverly. I remember
parents woke us up in the middle of the night
in Titusville.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
Yeah. Yeah, and it's you never forget it. It stays with you,
It really does.
Speaker 2 (06:48):
It's like the Space Shuttle. I hate to say it,
but something that sticks in your head because it was
so memorable.
Speaker 1 (06:53):
Do you, as a Florida kid, do you remember your
first being very aware of a hurricane? Which one would that.
Speaker 2 (07:01):
Have been been Hurricane David?
Speaker 1 (07:03):
I know too, me too, David.
Speaker 2 (07:05):
I don't remember what year that was. I just remember
my buddy Tommy, well almost say his last name. Tommy
lived on Lake Knowles in winter Park and his house
was featured on the front of the at that time
Winter Park Sentinel. It was before the Orlando's end was
out and it was Tommy has Tommy has the day
(07:26):
off from school. Unfortunately he has to clean stuff up,
and it showed how the lake had flooded over the
road and put crap all in his yard and he's
out there picking. It was like, dude, Tommy was in
the paper. You know when you're a kid.
Speaker 1 (07:40):
Do you know what my remembrance of that was that
it wasn't really so much the storm itself. What year
I'll look it up, Yeah, look up, what year was
Hurricane David hit Florida? And it wasn't so much the
storm itself, the preparation. We were of the mindset that
(08:01):
you should actually tape your windows up back in and
that used to be the norm.
Speaker 2 (08:05):
I know, and we did it with our Brookshire house.
What God, that was the shittiest idea ever.
Speaker 1 (08:11):
Duct tape ruined it and that crap was still on
the windows the rest of the time I lived in
that house before I moved out to go to college.
Speaker 2 (08:23):
Yeah, you're not getting duct tape, especially in South Florida
where afterwards it's bakes on. It was nineteen seventy nine. Yeah,
I made a brief landfall near West Palm, yeah, September third,
and then maybe landfall near Blackbeard Island September fourth. That, yeah,
seventy nine. So that was just after the Baby Flurries event.
Speaker 1 (08:45):
That was seventy seven for the flurries.
Speaker 2 (08:48):
Yeah, that's what I'm saying. This is just after it.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
But that was really my first remembrance of a hurricane,
and I didn't have You know, now we get really
really well when you know there's a hurricane coming.
Speaker 2 (09:02):
Yeah, but now we're smarter not to tape our windows,
and we're smarter to have things like a generator so
you can actually live. I mean when when Charlie Francis
and Jean Hit I was living what was I fifteen
days without power?
Speaker 1 (09:17):
That sucked. You were in one of those pockets that
just for whatever reason did not have power restored for
way longer than a lot of the surrounding area.
Speaker 2 (09:26):
Yeah. And a microburst went right behind my house, ripped
my entire fence off, and ripped the roof off of
Brookshire Elementary back there, so that I think that did
a little more to the power lines, you know, and
keeping us off. But uh, what about Hurricane Andrew? Good?
(09:47):
That was man? I mean you were you were still
down there?
Speaker 1 (09:51):
No, I had, I had already moved here.
Speaker 2 (09:53):
But you do you do the drives?
Speaker 1 (09:56):
No? No, no, well no, if you recall I had,
I had moved up you know, late eighties. Andrew was
what early nineties, and you know, it hit, It did
its thing down there, and it was horrible and you
know all that damage and stuff. Then I had briefly,
I briefly moved back to South Florida. I was still
working for Peaches full time. They gave me as a
(10:17):
store director to run the store in South Miami. They
used to have a store in South Miami on US One,
right near the University of Miami. Okay, So I went
down there shortly after Andrew and the recovery process was
still underway, and literally, I don't know, the destruction line
started probably two three miles south of where the store
(10:40):
was there, going into homestead and whatnot. I had some
buddies from South Florida who all did construction, and we're
just living down there helping folks out in the area
where the most devastation was. And they're like, oh, dude,
come on down Friday night, we're gonna have a you know.
You know. They were living in one of the houses
(11:02):
in one of the affected neighborhoods, which many of the
neighborhoods were just blasted, and they were in one of
the houses. It still was functional, so the owner was
letting them live there as they were doing repairs and
working in the neighborhood. There were no signs to find
streets and stuff. They were all gone, all gone. I
got directions to find them by by landmark piles of
(11:27):
rubble you'll get to and then they mentioned whatever land
there'll be a huge pile. There's a street right after
the pile. You can't slow down so you could see
the street. Afterwards, turn there and then go down two
more big rubble piles and turn left on that street
and we're the only house standing. Okay, man, I got you.
(11:50):
And this this wasn't when everybody had, you know, a
phone either. I did this all over you know, the landline,
and wrote down instructions, directions back, wrote him down and
somehow I found them.
Speaker 2 (12:02):
And then back in those days, the fact that you
actually made it out of there, you probably just crashed there.
Speaker 1 (12:08):
I'm sure I probably did.
Speaker 2 (12:10):
Yeah, I would think the Michael, what's up? Well, what's up? Boys?
Everybody's checking in at the Facebook live post hurricane Andrew
is nine or ten. Brian said, that's I just remember
going to visit Delta. Dave lived down there, and we'd
drive past Homestead and it was eerie just looking at
(12:36):
that swath.
Speaker 1 (12:37):
You know, as bad as that was, if that storm track,
that trail of destruction where the most intense winds were,
had shifted just ten miles.
Speaker 2 (12:50):
North to go straight through Miami, right.
Speaker 1 (12:52):
Right through downtown Miami, and it would have been I
can't even imagine, because look, man, let's be on a
lot of stuff, the building and the construction as a
lot of times we'll go, oh, it was so much
better back then, and yeah it was, but we didn't
know then as much as we know now. And hopefully
(13:14):
they you know, build with the idea of hurricanes now.
And I can't even imagine what would have happened if
that that strong storm went through there back then.
Speaker 2 (13:23):
It would have cleaned up all the cocaine cowboy problems
that were going.
Speaker 1 (13:27):
On, swept them right off and across the state and
out into the Gulf.
Speaker 2 (13:31):
Right back now. It would take them right back over
to Cuba where they were making runs for all that cocaine.
Later on.
Speaker 1 (13:38):
Boys, Yes, weather's always you know, it's always going to
be something no matter where you live. And so snow
and Florida record snow at that this week.
Speaker 2 (13:48):
Go figure. I told you about my buddy wild Bill,
and I'll just leave it at that. Him that he
used to run with the cocaine cowboys.
Speaker 1 (13:58):
Guys, what do you mean run with him?
Speaker 2 (13:59):
He was he they were all his friends, and he
he went down there and just you know, hung out
in the keys of him. After a while, he's like,
I got to get away from this ship because it
wasn't that he was doing it all the time. It's
that it was getting riskier and riskier, and they're like,
they're like, Bill, come on, you do this run with us.
He goes, no, I'm not. I'm not going to jail
(14:20):
for this. And sure enough they all got busted not
long after. And then if you remember my buddy Bobby,
my buddy Bobby, I'll just leave it at that. He
when he was on our podcast, remember when he said
the whole cocaine ring that was busted down in uh
in the Marathon area about believe it was about two
years ago, and I pulled up the pictures and I'm like, yeah, shit.
Speaker 1 (14:42):
I know all these dudes moonlighting.
Speaker 2 (14:44):
Uh huh yeah, and uh they are all still you know,
going up against the charges and stuff. And then my
other buddy down there who bought a drug runner's house,
Okay it was it was on auction.
Speaker 1 (14:58):
What go ahead, go ahead, I have question. I won't
ask you after you.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
Yeah, this this drug runner's house was perfectly placed on
the peninsula and it had enough it was like a
hotel almost at the time, I think, and it had
with it being on the peninsula, it had a way
that you could bring the plane right in if you
needed to have him drop it right there and just
you know, swim out or take your boat out and
(15:23):
get it and then bring it right into this cove
that he has. So when you're there and you have
all this knowledge in your head currently because he bought
it at auction, got a huge deal on it, and
redid the entire thing, and you've seen pictures. Yeah it is,
it's insane. So he he redid everything. But when you
(15:43):
look at the property and the layout of it, and
you go, oh, that lagoon, and you know the stuff
about the drug running that was going on in that
place before he bought it and why it went to auction,
And then you look at all the historic pictures because
they there were still some pick oh yeah of the
big bust and it's like the old school Miami cop
(16:06):
right yeah, down there at coast Guard or whoever sitting
right on the sitting right on all the bales and stuff,
because they were running it from there to Miami and
yeah and got busted. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (16:18):
So I'll ask you this. I'll ask any of you
who are you know, lurking online while we're doing this live,
the same question if you want to answer it, Okay,
we want to answer it all right, either scenario, it
would work either way. You're at the beach or you're
out fishing and you encounter some cocaine, cocaine that's been
(16:39):
ditched or lost or whatever, and you get some some
kilos that you've stumbled upon.
Speaker 2 (16:46):
How many are we talking? That's a big part of
the question.
Speaker 1 (16:49):
Let's say you're out on a you're out on a
boat just you know, got some lines in the water
and you're like, what's that over there? And you notice
some some wreckage or whatever, and oh boy, we've got
some some kilos, some kilos in the water here. It
looks like there's five or six of them.
Speaker 2 (17:03):
Okay, what do you and if there's five or six,
you know there's a whole lot more. Oh god, yeah,
well what do you think?
Speaker 1 (17:09):
What what is your move? Or if those of you
don't go out on the water. You're walking down.
Speaker 2 (17:14):
The beach and there it is.
Speaker 1 (17:16):
There, it is some some cocaine has washed up clearly
h you know in packaging, that is the stereotypical look
of cocaine being you know, ready to be moved.
Speaker 2 (17:26):
Yeah, bricks of cocaine.
Speaker 1 (17:28):
What's your move or not move?
Speaker 2 (17:29):
Well, we had that scenario down at at Wabaso with
the bales back in eighty eight. I think it was
all the bails.
Speaker 1 (17:37):
So that was with weed. Yeah, it happens with weed too,
but I'm gonna go weed is a little bit more mainstream.
Now we're talking cocaine, though, let's keep it to cocaine.
Speaker 2 (17:46):
I think if I'm in the boat, the scenario that
I'm in the boat, First off, I'm not gonna own
the boat. It's gonna be somebody else's. You know, I
don't have the money for a boat offshore, so I'm
gonna look at whoever owns it. I'm gonna say, here's
my question and my scenario. There's six there, which means
there's forty elsewhere probably, if not more. What do you
(18:08):
say we just take two and call it a day
and then we head in because soon the cops and authorities,
the Coastguard's gonna be looking because they've got reports by
then from other people, so they might be at the
dock when you get there, waiting. I think I just
grab two and then I know the right people that
(18:29):
can at least get rid of it. But I'd be
shitting myself the whole time, I'd be so nervous.
Speaker 1 (18:34):
We've got listener, let's see take it and drive around
for three or four hours, stay the night at a hotel,
make sure no one is following you, okay, which that
would hedge against the scenario you just kind of said.
I let's go back to your on the boat with
what you said to me. I'm gonna do my mind exercises.
(18:56):
Even if you just take one kilo. H that's a
shit pilot cookee that's now on your boat that you're on,
even if it's not your boat in name, you're on
this boat with a kilo of cocaine.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
Getting pulled over. Immedialy gonna say, sir, we found kilos
and we're bringing them. We don't know where to bring them.
Speaker 1 (19:14):
Why didn't you radio the coast guard? Why didn't you
radio visit my boat? Right? You know what I'm saying.
I just I'm like, man, I would be freaking tempting
as it would be. At the same time, I'd be like,
oh man uh huh ah.
Speaker 2 (19:32):
Dude, that's a tough one, because, like you said, it's
what it is, and usually they are waiting because they
know that it's out there. And they're either waiting at
the dock kind of like during uh whatever snapper season
or whatever season where they're they're waiting for somebody to
have multiple when they're not supposed.
Speaker 1 (19:48):
Now, So that's just that's just the first part of
the equation. Let's say you have you scooped up. What
you say you're gonna take two kilos? All right, you've
got it on the boat. You're pretty sure no one's
seen this. You get back to the dock.
Speaker 2 (20:01):
Now what Now we're going home.
Speaker 1 (20:05):
You've got two kilos of cocaine. You're not a cocaine dealer.
Speaker 2 (20:10):
What are you gonna do? They're stuck, They're stashed somewhere
in the boat. If we're out of there, then we're
going to proceed. And I'm gonna say, all right, we
can stash these at name the house back in Orlando,
and then I will contact people who can get rid
of it. And no, no, because I'd be straight up
and say, hey, you don't know who I am. Oh god, gun,
(20:34):
You've got to deal with that after.
Speaker 1 (20:35):
They're going to be sketchy on you because I know them.
Speaker 2 (20:40):
But it would be I'd be worried now about them
getting busted and turning me in. But I would say,
I think it would be along the lines of, hey,
look you for moving this. You're getting half of the money,
but you if you ever mentioned me, I will have
your head cut off by other friends.
Speaker 1 (20:58):
Which is what I'm getting getting at here is the
second you've made the decision to insert yourself into the illicit,
you know, obtaining, manufacturing, sales, distribution, anything with like hard
drugs and narcotics, bad shit is probably gonna happen at
some point.
Speaker 2 (21:18):
At some point it circles back on you somehow. And
that's how it happened with that whole ring of my
buddy's Bobby's friends recently, the ones I talked about because
they found something, they started then they just kept going
and going. Well, if you remember, because you and I
talked to him, he said, he said, I'd see him
(21:39):
floating up when I'm fishing. He goes, I would go
the other way, You go the other way, and I'll
take And I agree. I think I would just wash
my hands of it.
Speaker 1 (21:50):
I know nothing.
Speaker 2 (21:51):
I'd take a selfie with it, you know what, Hey
take my bitch, like you know with the square girup.
Speaker 1 (21:57):
Right, But we're talking about Okay, so this is just
on a single person basis, a couple of kilos. Even
if you extrapolate that out to all these horrible drug
cartels and stuff, it catches up with all of them
eventually as well. And it doesn't matter where you are
on that ladder. Of course, you want to be higher up,
(22:19):
as high up as possible, because there's many more people
are going to be killed below you, oh yeah, before
or that you're going to kill or have killed before
you actually buy the farm.
Speaker 2 (22:30):
But you don't want to be higher up for all
the way up because then you are on the radar
all the time.
Speaker 1 (22:37):
This is the exact point if you're going to and
you see this as it gets depicted in movies all
the time. They have so much money from all of
this and whatever, but you really don't have a life. Yeah,
you're you've become a prisoner, even when you're technically not
even a prisoner.
Speaker 2 (22:54):
Yeah. I'm thinking of the one where they were all
one of the last ones that we saw and uh,
you know, like so and so moved to an island
with his wife and it was just those two and
they're eating at this hotel, but they're stuck in that
hotel and some are on some remote island, and then
he gets tempted and he goes back to you know
wherever in I wish I could think of the name,
(23:17):
you know which one it is. I'm not going on
with the guy who smokes SIGs. And he's like, I
know they all did Narcos, Narcos, thank you in Narcos.
And then remember they have all those guys, and he
just you see the one guy stand up like, there
ain't no way I'm going to jail because they know
what it's gonna come with me. And he just sat
there and got machine gunned down.
Speaker 1 (23:37):
Oh what do you think the cartels are thinking now
that they've been designated terrorist organizations?
Speaker 2 (23:43):
Dude?
Speaker 1 (23:44):
You know what that means, right, you know what that means.
Speaker 2 (23:46):
Yeah, they'd be treated as terrorists when they're busted the
full force of the military to get if it comes
into that, Yeah, I think the cartel they they'll be
under the ground. They know what's up funnels.
Speaker 1 (24:02):
Watch movie you watched movie that we haven't really this
is uncharted territory. Could be interesting to see what happens
on that front.
Speaker 2 (24:10):
There's gonna be a lot of a lot of things
that are gonna be different and uncharted.
Speaker 1 (24:15):
Yeah, well so it's it is definitely uh not only
is it a new year, it's a whole new everything
on a lot of levels. So with that, we hope
twenty twenty five overall is better than than last year. Man,
I think you hope hope that every.
Speaker 2 (24:31):
Year, Right, I think everybody would agree that. I hope
twenty twenty five could have more people in the US
get along and and you know, for our country, quip
being this two separated sides, we're not We're not the
Confederate and the whatever. You know what I'm saying, Let's
just try to hey, put put the arguments kind of
(24:51):
the side.
Speaker 1 (24:51):
Well, nobody's ever going to agree on everything, but you
would hopefully you would hope that. You know, we've tried
tried it one way for a few years, and clearly
there were some issues with that. I'm certainly open to
trying things a whole lot differently and see if we
can get pointed in a better direction for everybody, for.
Speaker 2 (25:11):
Everybody back to where everybody can affoid gas and everybody
can afford Let's just hope groceries and whatever. One last
quick thing, yeah, man, the bail story that I was
talking about at Wilboso. Yeah, that's the one where we
were going to a Wabaso and you'd go to this
place called the Tree because it was a tree that
hung over and out farther than everywhere else and it
(25:32):
was purposely like that. So then you knew where to.
Speaker 1 (25:34):
Go at landmark meeting points.
Speaker 2 (25:36):
Yes, man, but it's pitch black on this road. No lights.
Well now there probably are no lights there, but when
you pulled in there, you went around the little trail
and you have this big open area and a great
surf break and everything. That's where everything floated up. Well,
the night that we were going out there, we couldn't
find it, so we got screwed and to go had
(25:57):
to go sleep in a van in Delta Day's down
at some restaurant parking lot. We were getting attacked by
ra raccoons were bugging this for food all iew but
all that aside, So we didn't make it to where
the bales floated up. But we heard all this stuff.
And one of the stories is my buddy Kirk, and
this is true because I had like three friends in
the car, was driving a big you know, the big
(26:21):
cargo van. You know what I'm saying, like a conversion.
Speaker 3 (26:24):
Yes, didn't have captain seats. Yes, it actually the shag carpeting.
It was like the waterbed in the back. It was
like the souper nav grip tape machine van. But no,
but it was a deluxe van because his parents had
money and it was there.
Speaker 2 (26:38):
So I want to sell you a van.
Speaker 1 (26:40):
Probably got it from already grindle back in the day.
Speaker 2 (26:42):
Guarantee it. I guarantee that's where it came from. So
there they find these bales and they're and they're going
and they buried a whole bunch of them at Wabasso,
and then people went back form later. Well, of course
all the cops came and they're looking for everything, and
they go where he goes, We don't know how anything,
and they're all like, shit, man, we buried that. You
know they're gonna find it. So then they were going
(27:05):
to go back like later in a couple.
Speaker 1 (27:08):
Couple of days in the dunes or something.
Speaker 2 (27:11):
No, this is a it's a wooded little area without dunes, right,
So they got it off the beach and oh yeah, okay,
oh yeah, I mean somebody was swimming in with one
on his searchboard calling it behind him. But uh so
they did it and they were successful in burying a
whole bunch of it, which you think they'd go back for. Well,
some people may have. But Kirk and all them were
(27:33):
driving home and they get right near Patrick's Air Force
Base and they're like, we're crystal clear, right because all
we have to do now if you know where I'm
talking about where the Space Force says, you just got
to go straight down that road and make it die
ninety five and you're good. So they're driving along and
all of a sudden, the uh I think it was
military police or something walked out and said stop search
(27:58):
the whole entire vehicle found it. And they're like, yeah,
you know, we just high school kids or just had
some weed whatever, And so they go through the thing
and they, you know, do a search of the vehicle.
They go through everything. I guess they didn't use dogs
at the time. So they release all them and they say,
let this be a lesson that when that happens, do
(28:20):
the right thing and don't grab anything. So they leave
and they're driving. Everybody's bummed out. There's a bunch of
burnout surface the right man, I can't believe we lost
a little bit of weed that we were able to
bring out. You know, we can get the rest that
stash and Keith goz no need to do that and
grab the dashboard like this on both sides, pulled it back.
The entire thing was loaded with pot. While they're all
(28:44):
burying shit, he grabbed a bunch and loaded it in
there like a cheech and chong machine kind of And
that's why I said, I guess the MP officers or
whatever they are didn't use dogs because they would have
smelt that. And so we had going into spring break
and then the summer after that endless weed summer. Yes
they called it. We called it all of it Mexican spinach.
(29:05):
But that was when you had the MTV Summers or
MTV spring Break coming to Daytona. So you have all
these kids coming in from out of town, and we
were the kids that, you know, you're almost kind of
local because you're over in Smyrna and in Orlando. So people,
I don't want to name any of the names, but
are walking around and just selling like handfuls of weed
(29:30):
to these you know, out of town ers, and it
was shitty. It was Mexican spinach. We called it was
just bad weed, but it did get you HiPE. Smoked
enough of it, and uh, there's a very successful summer
for somebody that I might be related to.
Speaker 1 (29:43):
No need for a part time job this summer.
Speaker 2 (29:46):
No, I'm not melling ons dad, all right.
Speaker 1 (29:49):
I got enough grass, all right.
Speaker 2 (29:52):
Uh that's such good times back then.
Speaker 1 (29:54):
Thank you for checking out the off the air podcast

See
Greetings, Welcome to another episode of Off the Air, the
weekly podcast from the Lynch and Taco Show lynchon Taco
Morning Show on one O one one w.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
J r R.
Speaker 1 (00:10):
I'm Pat Lynch, Taco Bob across the console from me,
as always.
Speaker 2 (00:15):
Thursday Friday before you know it, as if you're listeners
live right now.
Speaker 1 (00:21):
Which if you aren't, Hello to everybody on Facebook Live.
If you got anything to chime in with or stuff
you want to bring up, feel free's it's all on
the table for the most part, as long as it's legal. Anyway.
I guess the big screaming deal right now across the
news is the snow in Florida event this week. Come
(00:41):
on that man.
Speaker 2 (00:42):
Yeah there was even some snow, I believe this morning in.
Speaker 1 (00:45):
Okalla, Marion County. Yeah, yeah, I was. I'm gonna tell
you flat out, man, it was a tad bit uh
jealous yesterday as the whole North Florida area was getting
that snow coming down. And it's not just the uh
you know, the one off. Oh, there's enough on the
windshield to make a little tiny snowball. This is inches
(01:07):
and inches at record snowfall was at Milton Florida in
the panandle with ten inches of snow.
Speaker 2 (01:13):
It was so cool to see all the different videos
of all the college kids who a lot of them
that are at the you know like FSU, and a
lot of them are from Florida because it can stay
within the state and get the bright futures if they
earned it. And to see them being Florida kids knowing
that they some of them never seen snow, and watching
them have snowball fights and you know, sliding down a
(01:35):
hill on a trash candle, and it was awesome. And
I told you yesterday the little kids on the news,
that was the best ever because you know, those Florida
kids have never seen snow. You know, like the six
and eight year old, we saw whatever, and I mean
the closest they've seen his ice probably.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
It's funny you brought that up. You're almost taking the
words right out of my mouth. I when stuff like
this happens, and we've had and you know, bounce with
little bits of snow here and there over the years,
it's big news. But I always will flash back to
the first time I ever saw snow in the state
(02:12):
of Florida as a little kid nineteen seventy seven, there
was a snow event and it made it as far
south as Miami. And you know, I grew up in
South Florida, and you know it heard even as a
little kid. You know, sometimes it'll get you know, cold
enough to snow in Florida, but not down here in
(02:32):
South Florida. Always living the time. And I just remember
leaving to walk to school, which I did every morning.
I walked to school with my sisters.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
In the days that it was safe to do that
without having to worry about a white van pulling up.
Speaker 1 (02:48):
And we walk out the front door, and I knew
it was cold. We you know, parents, you know, make
sure you put a jacket on, well whatever, so you know,
we put on our jackets, walked out and yeah, there
was some flakes coming down. Yeah, And I had never
really I had seen snow before that, but I was
(03:08):
too young to remember it. Parents took us way up
north into Canada for a wedding, family wedding, but I
don't really even remember it. So this is the first
time I ever recall seeing snow, and it took a
second for me to realize what was going on. And
my sisters were with my younger sisters on it's snowing.
They're like, no, it is look look. So we stood
there in disbelief. So I went back into the house
(03:31):
to find my mom, who I'll never forget this. She
was getting ready for work in her room, and uh,
I just barged right in. She had nothing on but
a town Oh god. She's like, Patrick, hey, Mo, it's snowing.
She goes, go get to school. No, it's snowing, and
she she wouldn't believe me. And a few seconds later,
(03:55):
one of my sisters comes walking in, Mom, you gonna
come out. And as soon as one of my sisters says, now,
all of a sudden, it's snowing and she's got to
see this, well.
Speaker 2 (04:02):
Yeah she believes that. So, uh, you know, I remember
the snow that you're talking about because it was rare
that it made it. I was six years old at
the time. It was rare because I remember I was
in like K or first grade, and I remember it
was rare that it made it down to Miami, as
you said, so in Orlando there was more yeah, yeah,
and it was. It was it was super super cool.
(04:25):
I remember walking to Lake Mount Elementary and we're walking
along and I hated school in those days. I mean,
and I remember walking along and we're we're grabbing the
icicles off the trees that are hanging and eating them.
Even another they taste like well water and stuff. I
don't mean to interrupt your story here. I wanted to
get back to it. But random, Bobby, they have big
(04:47):
fat asses, comment coming in via Facebook life. Oh yeah, Bobby,
they all have such big fat asses.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
Rest in peace. O. Mah yeah.
Speaker 2 (04:55):
I reminded my mama that the other day. I said, yeah, listeners,
text listeners are starting text in now with that body
now have some big fat asses and yelling it like
that about the nursing home ladies from the Islands. And
I'm like, oh my, you don't have your hearing aids in.
But yeah, I remember walking to Lakemont and that snow
(05:16):
and it was so wild, and I also remember it
doing it. I want to say it would have been
probably the eighties because I was working at Charlie's Lobster
House and uh, and I walked out and everybody's like, dude,
you got to come out here. There's flotteries coming out.
And went out there and then I went to open
the door on my Love Love Wagon. Yeah, my stage
(05:38):
wagon Plymouth Fluri, and it snapped the lock. It didn't
snap the key, it just stripped the lock because it
was so frozen. And then you know ice on the windshield.
We're all going out. It's like, you know, snowy, sleety
kind of stuff. It wasn't as bad as that other one.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
Yeah, but it is. For those of you who are
transplants from points north, you probably just roll your eyes
at all this, But trust us when we tell you,
coming from a couple of Native Floridians having snow, whether
it's just a little flurry or this round where it
piled up in places, is a huge deal here.
Speaker 2 (06:14):
Yeah, it really is. And again as when we were kids,
it was. It was super cool. So I was happy
to see the kids on the news yesterday, not just
the college kids. I'm talking about the you know, a
six year old I mentioned to two are the Facebook
live hugs from Gloria eighty eight or eighty nine was
a cold one. Yeah, that's the one where I broke
(06:36):
my ox. And then this one from Beverly. I remember
parents woke us up in the middle of the night
in Titusville.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
Yeah. Yeah, and it's you never forget it. It stays with you,
It really does.
Speaker 2 (06:48):
It's like the Space Shuttle. I hate to say it,
but something that sticks in your head because it was
so memorable.
Speaker 1 (06:53):
Do you, as a Florida kid, do you remember your
first being very aware of a hurricane? Which one would that.
Speaker 2 (07:01):
Have been been Hurricane David?
Speaker 1 (07:03):
I know too, me too, David.
Speaker 2 (07:05):
I don't remember what year that was. I just remember
my buddy Tommy, well almost say his last name. Tommy
lived on Lake Knowles in winter Park and his house
was featured on the front of the at that time
Winter Park Sentinel. It was before the Orlando's end was
out and it was Tommy has Tommy has the day
(07:26):
off from school. Unfortunately he has to clean stuff up,
and it showed how the lake had flooded over the
road and put crap all in his yard and he's
out there picking. It was like, dude, Tommy was in
the paper. You know when you're a kid.
Speaker 1 (07:40):
Do you know what my remembrance of that was that
it wasn't really so much the storm itself. What year
I'll look it up, Yeah, look up, what year was
Hurricane David hit Florida? And it wasn't so much the
storm itself, the preparation. We were of the mindset that
(08:01):
you should actually tape your windows up back in and
that used to be the norm.
Speaker 2 (08:05):
I know, and we did it with our Brookshire house.
What God, that was the shittiest idea ever.
Speaker 1 (08:11):
Duct tape ruined it and that crap was still on
the windows the rest of the time I lived in
that house before I moved out to go to college.
Speaker 2 (08:23):
Yeah, you're not getting duct tape, especially in South Florida
where afterwards it's bakes on. It was nineteen seventy nine. Yeah,
I made a brief landfall near West Palm, yeah, September third,
and then maybe landfall near Blackbeard Island September fourth. That, yeah,
seventy nine. So that was just after the Baby Flurries event.
Speaker 1 (08:45):
That was seventy seven for the flurries.
Speaker 2 (08:48):
Yeah, that's what I'm saying. This is just after it.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
But that was really my first remembrance of a hurricane,
and I didn't have You know, now we get really
really well when you know there's a hurricane coming.
Speaker 2 (09:02):
Yeah, but now we're smarter not to tape our windows,
and we're smarter to have things like a generator so
you can actually live. I mean when when Charlie Francis
and Jean Hit I was living what was I fifteen
days without power?
Speaker 1 (09:17):
That sucked. You were in one of those pockets that
just for whatever reason did not have power restored for
way longer than a lot of the surrounding area.
Speaker 2 (09:26):
Yeah. And a microburst went right behind my house, ripped
my entire fence off, and ripped the roof off of
Brookshire Elementary back there, so that I think that did
a little more to the power lines, you know, and
keeping us off. But uh, what about Hurricane Andrew? Good?
(09:47):
That was man? I mean you were you were still
down there?
Speaker 1 (09:51):
No, I had, I had already moved here.
Speaker 2 (09:53):
But you do you do the drives?
Speaker 1 (09:56):
No? No, no, well no, if you recall I had,
I had moved up you know, late eighties. Andrew was
what early nineties, and you know, it hit, It did
its thing down there, and it was horrible and you
know all that damage and stuff. Then I had briefly,
I briefly moved back to South Florida. I was still
working for Peaches full time. They gave me as a
(10:17):
store director to run the store in South Miami. They
used to have a store in South Miami on US One,
right near the University of Miami. Okay, So I went
down there shortly after Andrew and the recovery process was
still underway, and literally, I don't know, the destruction line
started probably two three miles south of where the store
(10:40):
was there, going into homestead and whatnot. I had some
buddies from South Florida who all did construction, and we're
just living down there helping folks out in the area
where the most devastation was. And they're like, oh, dude,
come on down Friday night, we're gonna have a you know.
You know. They were living in one of the houses
(11:02):
in one of the affected neighborhoods, which many of the
neighborhoods were just blasted, and they were in one of
the houses. It still was functional, so the owner was
letting them live there as they were doing repairs and
working in the neighborhood. There were no signs to find
streets and stuff. They were all gone, all gone. I
got directions to find them by by landmark piles of
(11:27):
rubble you'll get to and then they mentioned whatever land
there'll be a huge pile. There's a street right after
the pile. You can't slow down so you could see
the street. Afterwards, turn there and then go down two
more big rubble piles and turn left on that street
and we're the only house standing. Okay, man, I got you.
(11:50):
And this this wasn't when everybody had, you know, a
phone either. I did this all over you know, the landline,
and wrote down instructions, directions back, wrote him down and
somehow I found them.
Speaker 2 (12:02):
And then back in those days, the fact that you
actually made it out of there, you probably just crashed there.
Speaker 1 (12:08):
I'm sure I probably did.
Speaker 2 (12:10):
Yeah, I would think the Michael, what's up? Well, what's up? Boys?
Everybody's checking in at the Facebook live post hurricane Andrew
is nine or ten. Brian said, that's I just remember
going to visit Delta. Dave lived down there, and we'd
drive past Homestead and it was eerie just looking at
(12:36):
that swath.
Speaker 1 (12:37):
You know, as bad as that was, if that storm track,
that trail of destruction where the most intense winds were,
had shifted just ten miles.
Speaker 2 (12:50):
North to go straight through Miami, right.
Speaker 1 (12:52):
Right through downtown Miami, and it would have been I
can't even imagine, because look, man, let's be on a
lot of stuff, the building and the construction as a
lot of times we'll go, oh, it was so much
better back then, and yeah it was, but we didn't
know then as much as we know now. And hopefully
(13:14):
they you know, build with the idea of hurricanes now.
And I can't even imagine what would have happened if
that that strong storm went through there back then.
Speaker 2 (13:23):
It would have cleaned up all the cocaine cowboy problems
that were going.
Speaker 1 (13:27):
On, swept them right off and across the state and
out into the Gulf.
Speaker 2 (13:31):
Right back now. It would take them right back over
to Cuba where they were making runs for all that cocaine.
Later on.
Speaker 1 (13:38):
Boys, Yes, weather's always you know, it's always going to
be something no matter where you live. And so snow
and Florida record snow at that this week.
Speaker 2 (13:48):
Go figure. I told you about my buddy wild Bill,
and I'll just leave it at that. Him that he
used to run with the cocaine cowboys.
Speaker 1 (13:58):
Guys, what do you mean run with him?
Speaker 2 (13:59):
He was he they were all his friends, and he
he went down there and just you know, hung out
in the keys of him. After a while, he's like,
I got to get away from this ship because it
wasn't that he was doing it all the time. It's
that it was getting riskier and riskier, and they're like,
they're like, Bill, come on, you do this run with us.
He goes, no, I'm not. I'm not going to jail
(14:20):
for this. And sure enough they all got busted not
long after. And then if you remember my buddy Bobby,
my buddy Bobby, I'll just leave it at that. He
when he was on our podcast, remember when he said
the whole cocaine ring that was busted down in uh
in the Marathon area about believe it was about two
years ago, and I pulled up the pictures and I'm like, yeah, shit.
Speaker 1 (14:42):
I know all these dudes moonlighting.
Speaker 2 (14:44):
Uh huh yeah, and uh they are all still you know,
going up against the charges and stuff. And then my
other buddy down there who bought a drug runner's house,
Okay it was it was on auction.
Speaker 1 (14:58):
What go ahead, go ahead, I have question. I won't
ask you after you.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
Yeah, this this drug runner's house was perfectly placed on
the peninsula and it had enough it was like a
hotel almost at the time, I think, and it had
with it being on the peninsula, it had a way
that you could bring the plane right in if you
needed to have him drop it right there and just
you know, swim out or take your boat out and
(15:23):
get it and then bring it right into this cove
that he has. So when you're there and you have
all this knowledge in your head currently because he bought
it at auction, got a huge deal on it, and
redid the entire thing, and you've seen pictures. Yeah it is,
it's insane. So he he redid everything. But when you
(15:43):
look at the property and the layout of it, and
you go, oh, that lagoon, and you know the stuff
about the drug running that was going on in that
place before he bought it and why it went to auction,
And then you look at all the historic pictures because
they there were still some pick oh yeah of the
big bust and it's like the old school Miami cop
(16:06):
right yeah, down there at coast Guard or whoever sitting
right on the sitting right on all the bales and stuff,
because they were running it from there to Miami and
yeah and got busted. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (16:18):
So I'll ask you this. I'll ask any of you
who are you know, lurking online while we're doing this live,
the same question if you want to answer it, Okay,
we want to answer it all right, either scenario, it
would work either way. You're at the beach or you're
out fishing and you encounter some cocaine, cocaine that's been
(16:39):
ditched or lost or whatever, and you get some some
kilos that you've stumbled upon.
Speaker 2 (16:46):
How many are we talking? That's a big part of
the question.
Speaker 1 (16:49):
Let's say you're out on a you're out on a
boat just you know, got some lines in the water
and you're like, what's that over there? And you notice
some some wreckage or whatever, and oh boy, we've got
some some kilos, some kilos in the water here. It
looks like there's five or six of them.
Speaker 2 (17:03):
Okay, what do you and if there's five or six,
you know there's a whole lot more. Oh god, yeah,
well what do you think?
Speaker 1 (17:09):
What what is your move? Or if those of you
don't go out on the water. You're walking down.
Speaker 2 (17:14):
The beach and there it is.
Speaker 1 (17:16):
There, it is some some cocaine has washed up clearly
h you know in packaging, that is the stereotypical look
of cocaine being you know, ready to be moved.
Speaker 2 (17:26):
Yeah, bricks of cocaine.
Speaker 1 (17:28):
What's your move or not move?
Speaker 2 (17:29):
Well, we had that scenario down at at Wabaso with
the bales back in eighty eight. I think it was
all the bails.
Speaker 1 (17:37):
So that was with weed. Yeah, it happens with weed too,
but I'm gonna go weed is a little bit more mainstream.
Now we're talking cocaine, though, let's keep it to cocaine.
Speaker 2 (17:46):
I think if I'm in the boat, the scenario that
I'm in the boat, First off, I'm not gonna own
the boat. It's gonna be somebody else's. You know, I
don't have the money for a boat offshore, so I'm
gonna look at whoever owns it. I'm gonna say, here's
my question and my scenario. There's six there, which means
there's forty elsewhere probably, if not more. What do you
(18:08):
say we just take two and call it a day
and then we head in because soon the cops and authorities,
the Coastguard's gonna be looking because they've got reports by
then from other people, so they might be at the
dock when you get there, waiting. I think I just
grab two and then I know the right people that
(18:29):
can at least get rid of it. But I'd be
shitting myself the whole time, I'd be so nervous.
Speaker 1 (18:34):
We've got listener, let's see take it and drive around
for three or four hours, stay the night at a hotel,
make sure no one is following you, okay, which that
would hedge against the scenario you just kind of said.
I let's go back to your on the boat with
what you said to me. I'm gonna do my mind exercises.
(18:56):
Even if you just take one kilo. H that's a
shit pilot cookee that's now on your boat that you're on,
even if it's not your boat in name, you're on
this boat with a kilo of cocaine.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
Getting pulled over. Immedialy gonna say, sir, we found kilos
and we're bringing them. We don't know where to bring them.
Speaker 1 (19:14):
Why didn't you radio the coast guard? Why didn't you
radio visit my boat? Right? You know what I'm saying.
I just I'm like, man, I would be freaking tempting
as it would be. At the same time, I'd be like,
oh man uh huh ah.
Speaker 2 (19:32):
Dude, that's a tough one, because, like you said, it's
what it is, and usually they are waiting because they
know that it's out there. And they're either waiting at
the dock kind of like during uh whatever snapper season
or whatever season where they're they're waiting for somebody to
have multiple when they're not supposed.
Speaker 1 (19:48):
Now, So that's just that's just the first part of
the equation. Let's say you have you scooped up. What
you say you're gonna take two kilos? All right, you've
got it on the boat. You're pretty sure no one's
seen this. You get back to the dock.
Speaker 2 (20:01):
Now what Now we're going home.
Speaker 1 (20:05):
You've got two kilos of cocaine. You're not a cocaine dealer.
Speaker 2 (20:10):
What are you gonna do? They're stuck, They're stashed somewhere
in the boat. If we're out of there, then we're
going to proceed. And I'm gonna say, all right, we
can stash these at name the house back in Orlando,
and then I will contact people who can get rid
of it. And no, no, because I'd be straight up
and say, hey, you don't know who I am. Oh god, gun,
(20:34):
You've got to deal with that after.
Speaker 1 (20:35):
They're going to be sketchy on you because I know them.
Speaker 2 (20:40):
But it would be I'd be worried now about them
getting busted and turning me in. But I would say,
I think it would be along the lines of, hey,
look you for moving this. You're getting half of the money,
but you if you ever mentioned me, I will have
your head cut off by other friends.
Speaker 1 (20:58):
Which is what I'm getting getting at here is the
second you've made the decision to insert yourself into the illicit,
you know, obtaining, manufacturing, sales, distribution, anything with like hard
drugs and narcotics, bad shit is probably gonna happen at
some point.
Speaker 2 (21:18):
At some point it circles back on you somehow. And
that's how it happened with that whole ring of my
buddy's Bobby's friends recently, the ones I talked about because
they found something, they started then they just kept going
and going. Well, if you remember, because you and I
talked to him, he said, he said, I'd see him
(21:39):
floating up when I'm fishing. He goes, I would go
the other way, You go the other way, and I'll
take And I agree. I think I would just wash
my hands of it.
Speaker 1 (21:50):
I know nothing.
Speaker 2 (21:51):
I'd take a selfie with it, you know what, Hey
take my bitch, like you know with the square girup.
Speaker 1 (21:57):
Right, But we're talking about Okay, so this is just
on a single person basis, a couple of kilos. Even
if you extrapolate that out to all these horrible drug
cartels and stuff, it catches up with all of them
eventually as well. And it doesn't matter where you are
on that ladder. Of course, you want to be higher up,
(22:19):
as high up as possible, because there's many more people
are going to be killed below you, oh yeah, before
or that you're going to kill or have killed before
you actually buy the farm.
Speaker 2 (22:30):
But you don't want to be higher up for all
the way up because then you are on the radar
all the time.
Speaker 1 (22:37):
This is the exact point if you're going to and
you see this as it gets depicted in movies all
the time. They have so much money from all of
this and whatever, but you really don't have a life. Yeah,
you're you've become a prisoner, even when you're technically not
even a prisoner.
Speaker 2 (22:54):
Yeah. I'm thinking of the one where they were all
one of the last ones that we saw and uh,
you know, like so and so moved to an island
with his wife and it was just those two and
they're eating at this hotel, but they're stuck in that
hotel and some are on some remote island, and then
he gets tempted and he goes back to you know
wherever in I wish I could think of the name,
(23:17):
you know which one it is. I'm not going on
with the guy who smokes SIGs. And he's like, I
know they all did Narcos, Narcos, thank you in Narcos.
And then remember they have all those guys, and he
just you see the one guy stand up like, there
ain't no way I'm going to jail because they know
what it's gonna come with me. And he just sat
there and got machine gunned down.
Speaker 1 (23:37):
Oh what do you think the cartels are thinking now
that they've been designated terrorist organizations?
Speaker 2 (23:43):
Dude?
Speaker 1 (23:44):
You know what that means, right, you know what that means.
Speaker 2 (23:46):
Yeah, they'd be treated as terrorists when they're busted the
full force of the military to get if it comes
into that, Yeah, I think the cartel they they'll be
under the ground. They know what's up funnels.
Speaker 1 (24:02):
Watch movie you watched movie that we haven't really this
is uncharted territory. Could be interesting to see what happens
on that front.
Speaker 2 (24:10):
There's gonna be a lot of a lot of things
that are gonna be different and uncharted.
Speaker 1 (24:15):
Yeah, well so it's it is definitely uh not only
is it a new year, it's a whole new everything
on a lot of levels. So with that, we hope
twenty twenty five overall is better than than last year. Man,
I think you hope hope that every.
Speaker 2 (24:31):
Year, Right, I think everybody would agree that. I hope
twenty twenty five could have more people in the US
get along and and you know, for our country, quip
being this two separated sides, we're not We're not the
Confederate and the whatever. You know what I'm saying, Let's
just try to hey, put put the arguments kind of
(24:51):
the side.
Speaker 1 (24:51):
Well, nobody's ever going to agree on everything, but you
would hopefully you would hope that. You know, we've tried
tried it one way for a few years, and clearly
there were some issues with that. I'm certainly open to
trying things a whole lot differently and see if we
can get pointed in a better direction for everybody, for.
Speaker 2 (25:11):
Everybody back to where everybody can affoid gas and everybody
can afford Let's just hope groceries and whatever. One last
quick thing, yeah, man, the bail story that I was
talking about at Wilboso. Yeah, that's the one where we
were going to a Wabaso and you'd go to this
place called the Tree because it was a tree that
hung over and out farther than everywhere else and it
(25:32):
was purposely like that. So then you knew where to.
Speaker 1 (25:34):
Go at landmark meeting points.
Speaker 2 (25:36):
Yes, man, but it's pitch black on this road. No lights.
Well now there probably are no lights there, but when
you pulled in there, you went around the little trail
and you have this big open area and a great
surf break and everything. That's where everything floated up. Well,
the night that we were going out there, we couldn't
find it, so we got screwed and to go had
(25:57):
to go sleep in a van in Delta Day's down
at some restaurant parking lot. We were getting attacked by
ra raccoons were bugging this for food all iew but
all that aside, So we didn't make it to where
the bales floated up. But we heard all this stuff.
And one of the stories is my buddy Kirk, and
this is true because I had like three friends in
the car, was driving a big you know, the big
(26:21):
cargo van. You know what I'm saying, like a conversion.
Speaker 3 (26:24):
Yes, didn't have captain seats. Yes, it actually the shag carpeting.
It was like the waterbed in the back. It was
like the souper nav grip tape machine van. But no,
but it was a deluxe van because his parents had
money and it was there.
Speaker 2 (26:38):
So I want to sell you a van.
Speaker 1 (26:40):
Probably got it from already grindle back in the day.
Speaker 2 (26:42):
Guarantee it. I guarantee that's where it came from. So
there they find these bales and they're and they're going
and they buried a whole bunch of them at Wabasso,
and then people went back form later. Well, of course
all the cops came and they're looking for everything, and
they go where he goes, We don't know how anything,
and they're all like, shit, man, we buried that. You
know they're gonna find it. So then they were going
(27:05):
to go back like later in a couple.
Speaker 1 (27:08):
Couple of days in the dunes or something.
Speaker 2 (27:11):
No, this is a it's a wooded little area without dunes, right,
So they got it off the beach and oh yeah, okay,
oh yeah, I mean somebody was swimming in with one
on his searchboard calling it behind him. But uh so
they did it and they were successful in burying a
whole bunch of it, which you think they'd go back for. Well,
some people may have. But Kirk and all them were
(27:33):
driving home and they get right near Patrick's Air Force
Base and they're like, we're crystal clear, right because all
we have to do now if you know where I'm
talking about where the Space Force says, you just got
to go straight down that road and make it die
ninety five and you're good. So they're driving along and
all of a sudden, the uh I think it was
military police or something walked out and said stop search
(27:58):
the whole entire vehicle found it. And they're like, yeah,
you know, we just high school kids or just had
some weed whatever, And so they go through the thing
and they, you know, do a search of the vehicle.
They go through everything. I guess they didn't use dogs
at the time. So they release all them and they say,
let this be a lesson that when that happens, do
(28:20):
the right thing and don't grab anything. So they leave
and they're driving. Everybody's bummed out. There's a bunch of
burnout surface the right man, I can't believe we lost
a little bit of weed that we were able to
bring out. You know, we can get the rest that
stash and Keith goz no need to do that and
grab the dashboard like this on both sides, pulled it back.
The entire thing was loaded with pot. While they're all
(28:44):
burying shit, he grabbed a bunch and loaded it in
there like a cheech and chong machine kind of And
that's why I said, I guess the MP officers or
whatever they are didn't use dogs because they would have
smelt that. And so we had going into spring break
and then the summer after that endless weed summer. Yes
they called it. We called it all of it Mexican spinach.
(29:05):
But that was when you had the MTV Summers or
MTV spring Break coming to Daytona. So you have all
these kids coming in from out of town, and we
were the kids that, you know, you're almost kind of
local because you're over in Smyrna and in Orlando. So people,
I don't want to name any of the names, but
are walking around and just selling like handfuls of weed
(29:30):
to these you know, out of town ers, and it
was shitty. It was Mexican spinach. We called it was
just bad weed, but it did get you HiPE. Smoked
enough of it, and uh, there's a very successful summer
for somebody that I might be related to.
Speaker 1 (29:43):
No need for a part time job this summer.
Speaker 2 (29:46):
No, I'm not melling ons dad, all right.
Speaker 1 (29:49):
I got enough grass, all right.
Speaker 2 (29:52):
Uh that's such good times back then.
Speaker 1 (29:54):
