Speaker 1 (00:04):
Let me know when you're ready.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
I bet that's a good start.
Speaker 3 (00:07):
This is Tanner, Drew and Laura's Donkey Show, Donkey Show.
Speaker 1 (00:14):
What's Happening to Kiddos? Thanks for checking out Tanner, Drew
and Laura's Donkey Show pod casto heard on line one
five nine of brew dot Com, the iHeartRadio app or
wherever you listen to podcasts. I'm Tanner Drew's here a
Laura's here bus rest. Marcus is now back from his
trip to Cankun.
Speaker 2 (00:31):
Did you yeah, did you ever figure out where you
were where you're going? Can you tell us?
Speaker 4 (00:36):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (00:37):
I figured it out right about the time he said
we are now making our final descent into can Coon
And I was like, that's nice.
Speaker 1 (00:44):
Nice. I actually text Marcus. I don't know whatever we
It was like, I think of the last Donkey Show
last week. I said, I'm gonna text Marcus and see
if he found out where he was going. Yet he
texted me back like like an hour later, Yeah, and
he goes, yeah, I only knew because I saw the signs.
She's literally just he did have no idea where he
was going. To me, he just followed his wife the.
Speaker 5 (01:06):
Uh and I and guess what perfect idea too, because
she she got me everywhere I needed to be, and
the things that the few things, very few things that
happened that were unsavory on this trip were completely out
of her control.
Speaker 4 (01:19):
It was customs, it was things like that.
Speaker 5 (01:21):
So following my wife proved to be an absolutely banger
of a plan.
Speaker 4 (01:26):
I mean, I'm just really happy.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
This is a good test on her part though, because
now she knows she can lead you blindly anywhere.
Speaker 1 (01:32):
And she's always known that.
Speaker 6 (01:34):
The nice thing for Marcus in this scenario is that
it's one of the few places on the planet where
it is the exact same packing job for Cancun and Cabo.
The only difference is the color of the water. That
is the only difference between those two places, and a
little bit of the clients.
Speaker 5 (01:51):
And I mean it was it was great, man. I
I my first trip to Mexico. I did I think?
I texted Tanner a pretty angry, you know, assessment of
what was going on in customs. Their their automated machine
broke down where they scan your passport, scan your face
and you walk through. At the same moment that a
(02:11):
plane from Russia with four hundred people flew in and
dumped them into Customs. So I was in what felt
like a festival of you know, fifteen hundred people, nobody
knowing where to go, no stanchions directing you, no people
telling you where to go, just chaos. People were passing out,
There was a fight that broke out, like it was.
Speaker 4 (02:31):
It was wild at.
Speaker 5 (02:32):
Customs, and I was instantly over Mexico before I even
actually officially got into Mexico. After we got past that point,
it completely changed. It was a fantastic trip that I
was do you know angry.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
Do you know how the fire broke out? Or just
people cranky and hot?
Speaker 5 (02:48):
And it was Yeah, it was like they release you
in on the back side of the room and everybody's
trying to get to the other side of the room.
And because there were no stanchions, you know, in an
airport customs in the United States, every place you go
you are guided by a rope line, like you just
can't get outside of where you're supposed to go. They
funnel you like sheep in a farm. And in this one,
(03:09):
they just dumped everybody into a room. And so like
if you've ever tried to get around at a really
busy festival. Imagine everybody having a suitcase and then doing that.
Speaker 4 (03:17):
It was unbelievable.
Speaker 5 (03:19):
And it get to the point where I was trying
to be friendly because I really started to feel the tension.
After the first hour and a half, you really started
to feel people start to get angry. And while I
was angry, I started like, if somebody cracked a joke,
I would laugh or like slap a high five to
somebody that looks like they're having a good try a
little bit and exactly, dude. And finally some guy from
(03:41):
the airport stepped up and said, like eighteen and over,
Americans this way, and somebody goes, did he just say
Americans this way? And I was like the team captain.
All of a sudden, I'm like, yeah, let's go Americans to.
Speaker 1 (03:52):
The left, Captain America.
Speaker 7 (03:55):
Well, those customs can be so aggressive.
Speaker 6 (03:57):
Like you know, the first time I went on my honeymoon,
had no idea sauntered because they drop you right on
the tarmac in these places too. Sauntered in there only
to be at the back of a hundreds of person
people lying. If you see me get off an airplane.
Now in Cabo or Cancun, I have two kids under
my arms, and I'm running like you are running for
(04:20):
the escalator, and then you're running down the escalator because
there's nine planes coming in at once. Yeah, and if
you can't get to the front of that room, you're screwed.
And what you know, the whole time is thirty feet
away or five bars with margarita's and cold beers, and
I can't get there. I'm stuck in here with a
dude with the lamest Hawaiian shirt and the breath.
Speaker 7 (04:40):
Oh, you know, it's a thing.
Speaker 5 (04:43):
And it's a compounding thing too, is like you're never
it's never all gonna go right. Like we finally got
to the front of the line. Ashley goes first. She
walks up, scans her passport, they take the picture. She's
through the booth in fifteen seconds. I walk up, scan
my passport, The camera breaks down and pinwheels on this
guy's alcola.
Speaker 1 (05:02):
You do look a little bit like a terrorist. So
there's probably that. So I think tomorrow. It's funny because
I put this on the prep for for some time
this week. But tomorrow we could or Friday, we could
do what happened? What did what did TSA or customs
put you through, you know, did you have to did
you get take into a room and then get the gloves,
the glove the glove treatment.
Speaker 6 (05:23):
I think it's a great idea Marcus probably got to
experience because after after he goes through customs, then he
gets his bag and then you go through a room
where it's red.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
Light green light.
Speaker 6 (05:33):
Now I doubt Laura's done it because he's gone to Mexico.
Do you know what the red light green light is?
Speaker 7 (05:38):
Tanner?
Speaker 1 (05:39):
I don't know what that is.
Speaker 6 (05:40):
So you walk up and you put your bags or
were you actually you don't put your bags on anything.
You walk up and you hit a button, and that
button either turns red or green based on a random draw.
If it turns red, your bags all go through another
thing and get searched.
Speaker 7 (05:55):
If it turns green, the door to paradise opens. It
is the why I heldest thing.
Speaker 6 (06:00):
And I'm not saying Marcus was traveling with contraband, but
likely traveling with contraband. That red light green light to
me has always been a very clinchy moment.
Speaker 1 (06:10):
No, it's yeah scary.
Speaker 3 (06:11):
No.
Speaker 1 (06:11):
I remember there was a time I went through TSA
and they found something in my bag. They wanted to check,
and then they wanted to take me to another room. Hey, goes,
do you want to go to another room to do this?
And I was like do what? Yeah, you talk now,
it's scary, and he goes, well, we need to do
a like a full patull. We got to go through
your bag and how we have to do a full
pat down and that means we have to touch your
(06:32):
genitals and stuff. And I was like, just do it here,
just get it over with.
Speaker 6 (06:35):
And that's what red light green light would do to
you in Mexico at random draw. And now I feel
like sometime because I've never had it happen when I've
had kids, so I feel like they can kind of like,
you know, make it turn green.
Speaker 1 (06:48):
But I don't want your kids slowing down the line
right exactly, pick a single person and torture them.
Speaker 7 (06:53):
Did you go through red light green lights.
Speaker 4 (06:55):
Your drugs on your kids, Marcus?
Speaker 1 (06:57):
No.
Speaker 5 (06:57):
Actually, I think that they might have shut it down
because of the chaos that was happening, because it was
such a such a shit show in there. They led
us through like a walkway and it said if you
have something to declare, go right, and if you don't.
Speaker 4 (07:11):
Get the fuck out of that. They did not want
people in there.
Speaker 5 (07:15):
What happened to me was after after I got maybe
flagged as as slightly terrorist looking, I guess they they
decided to beard room.
Speaker 1 (07:25):
Full man's angry. Yeah.
Speaker 5 (07:28):
Well they went ahead and shuffled me over to one
agent that was sitting there that was taking care of
the people who didn't get through the machine for whatever reason.
So you didn't need your boarding pass when I went
through the little the little uh tunnel and it didn't
scan my face that it screwed up. So when I
got to this lady, I needed my boarding pass. Ashley
(07:48):
had the boarding passes on her phone and was already
through customs. The last thing that she could do before
they shuffled her away from me was basically tossed me
her phone. I unlocked it. I went to the app.
I go to open the boarding pass. Oh yeah, we've
been standing here for three and a half hours. This
boarding pass doesn't exist on the app anymore. You can't
pull it up. That flight's been landed. And the lady
(08:11):
doesn't speak much English. She I show her and I say,
this is what I've got, And I showed her a
screenshot of Ashley. Bless her heart, she took a screenshot
of the wrong boarding pass. I said, this is the
flight that got me to the flight that got me here.
Will this work? And she goes, no, of course. And
I came back and I said, here's proof that I
paid for. I showed her the email. I said, here's
(08:31):
all the info. No, I can't call my wife because
I have her phone. Yeah, she's out of sight. I
can't do anything.
Speaker 1 (08:38):
And I did.
Speaker 5 (08:39):
I had about a probably a fifteen second lapse of
I said, so what, you just send me back to
fucking Oregon. And she goes, sir, please stand behind the
red line, and just basically was like, figure it out.
And I don't even remember how I eventually got the
proof that there was a boarding pass, but I will
tell you what I learned. Put that in your wallet,
(09:01):
in your Google wallet, your Apple wallet, whatever it is,
because it never goes away when it's in there. And
that really would have helped. It would have saved probably
forty five minutes, and I don't know how many years
off the end of my life because I was stressing it.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
That custom shit is Marcus is right, It's super scary.
We went on a cruise once a long time ago,
this bud Light Port Paradise cruise. Yeah, and it took
off out of Miami. So we had a flight of Florida.
We had a flight to Miami. We get there, we
get to the gate to like I could see the boat.
All I have to do is pass the gate, walk
down the ramp and I'm on the ship and they
(09:33):
say to us, oh, your your passport card won't work.
Speaker 6 (09:39):
When we had been told that because I had a passport,
but we were told that their website said passport a
card will work. So that's what I got instead of
the passport. And then they were telling me it wouldn't work.
And they told me and like eight other people and
who all have the same thing. And there's one dude
who was melting down. Yeah, I bet they called police
and everything. I mean, you fly all the across the.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
Yeah, and I said that I go. So you're just
sending us back to Oregon, like we just we just
took however long that flight is six seven eight hours
to get you, you're just gonna send us back. So
they made it work. They finally did.
Speaker 7 (10:11):
We did get you on that boat.
Speaker 1 (10:12):
Yeah, but they they almost tased this one person, I swear, and.
Speaker 6 (10:16):
It's hard to come to offer the heat of that,
you know, like when you know Marcus is saying the
trip is ruined and then it isn't. And same thing
with you when you're getting on that boat, on that boat.
When I was in Cancun, I got left on the
curb because they delayed flight took us to the wrong terminal,
so our shuttle never came. You are the worst, like
and I don't know if Marcus was this way on
(10:37):
the on the on the shuttle to the hotel, but
you're like you feel like a thumb because everyone else
is happy and you're pissed off. Yeah, right, Like I
remember being so pissed and then like you know, like
twenty minutes into the drive, I realized I'm staring at paradise.
But it is like and even you on that boat, Tanner,
I bet it took a bit to like.
Speaker 1 (11:00):
Well, I mean I was, I wasn't that upset.
Speaker 6 (11:03):
I was upset, but like at least you were on Yeah,
I guess, yeah, he was a left you out there
for hour.
Speaker 1 (11:07):
The other guy, I think he I think he jumped
off the back.
Speaker 7 (11:09):
Eventually, yeah, and made him go back for him because
he is a dick.
Speaker 5 (11:13):
Yeah, yeah, it was I think the one thing, and
I'll use this to make a bigger point about the
experience altogether, is Yeah, for the first twenty minutes of
that car ride, and it was just Ashley and I.
Thank god we weren't on like a shuttle full of
people headed to the same resort. We got one dude
to pick us up from like a tour company, and
he came in a nice rig. It was air conditioned,
and as he started talking to us, he was so friendly,
(11:36):
he was so nice, he wanted to answer questions. He
told us I wouldn't have known about the plane full
of Russians, that it dumped into the middle of this
chaos that was already going on, And he just made
me like the tension release a little bit. And yeah,
by the time we got to check in, I was
I was off of that you know, anger high. But
I'll tell you right now, some of the best serve
(12:00):
across the board. I don't care if you're talking about
hotel staff, waiters and waitresses, bus boys, people at the pool.
I don't think I've ever had a better experience on
any vacation I've ever been on where it was like
those people were there to serve us, and they were
so incredibly friendly. The waiters at the restaurants had the
perfect amount of banner, not enough to that you want
(12:22):
them to stick around.
Speaker 4 (12:23):
You know, you're you're not waiting.
Speaker 5 (12:24):
For him to leave, but still that you feel like
you had an experience rather than you just went to
a restaurant. And I couldn't believe it. I was blown
away by the quality of service. Like I was tipping,
like I have way more pasos than what I do bro.
I was throwings at everybody because it just made me
feel good. And I feel like, like that's what they're
working for, so let's take care of them.
Speaker 3 (12:44):
You know.
Speaker 4 (12:45):
I was a thiper across the board.
Speaker 6 (12:47):
Yeah, they're completely underpaid. You meet people from all over
the country who tell you the whole week that you're there.
Speaker 7 (12:52):
Oh no tips included. These people do not get that money.
Speaker 6 (12:57):
And I mean you've got how they are around children
as well is incredible. Like a lady could be cleaning
the hallway and she'll just like take a knee and
like grab a flower off of the side and like
give it to your kid. It's a it's a kind
of service that we could stand to take some notes.
Speaker 5 (13:16):
Absolutely, absolutely, and especially as like post COVID service in America.
I don't know if you guys have seen this, but
it's kind of fallen off a little bit because a
lot of people threw the finger to those jobs and
didn't want them anymore. And it was just a very
refreshing experience. A plus on the service, A plus on
the weather, Oh my god, eighty the whole time. Yeah,
(13:37):
I got a little sunburnt, but it was perfect, so nice,
just you know, great across the board. And then yesterday
sucked because it took us what took us seven hours
to get there, took us twenty hours to get home.
Speaker 4 (13:49):
Because of the flights we had to books.
Speaker 5 (13:51):
So I woke up at four am yesterday and we
did not go to bed until right around midnight last night,
and we got home, so it was a twenty hour day.
Speaker 6 (13:59):
That's what three hour difference too, So you got to
think it's three more hours.
Speaker 7 (14:03):
Than that, so it's almost a.
Speaker 5 (14:07):
I was toasted last night, no question, and and uh,
but dude, I would definitely go back. I think Tanner,
when I texted you, I had told you that I
was never coming back I'll definitely go back whenever that happened.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
I mean, it's super fantastic.
Speaker 2 (14:19):
As soon as you get to the beach, you're like,
oh cash when you run.
Speaker 1 (14:24):
Yeah, good information I have. Well, glad you had a
good time. Marcus. Uh, I don't know that Court is
going to join us this morning. He made later, but
he's got things going on it. I wanted to talk
to him about the things a few things we talked
about on the show today. I mean, we can talk
to Marcus about this, like, uh, like they're gonna possibly
(14:45):
change well, Texas wants to change the name of New
York Steak like a New York strip to Texas strip.
Speaker 7 (14:52):
Text me got the most cows? Yeah, Texas Steak.
Speaker 2 (14:56):
That makes sense, right.
Speaker 5 (14:58):
No, don't mess with don't mess with Steak. Like there's
only so many institutions that we have anymore. It's like
baseball and steak. Can we just I think that this
whole name like renaming thing is starting to become almost
a plague where everybody wants to do it now because
the Gulf of America actually showed up on Google and
it's I think that's bad for us. Like, I'm sure
(15:19):
there's a reason that they call it a New York strip.
It probably was the best thing that they could get
their hands on, and New York was the only city
when they learned that there's strips or the stake's great,
it should be in New York City.
Speaker 4 (15:31):
And then they called it a New York strip.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
That's where, Yeah, that's when that kind of started being sold.
Speaker 1 (15:39):
I always thought it was because it was shaped like Manhattan.
Speaker 6 (15:41):
It's got a little bit of that look, doesn't Now, Marcus,
what do you think of this now where we agree
that you shouldn't get the name the New York strip
just in the fact that it's very confusing to change it.
But what about if it got like, you know, a
try tip. It's not associated to any landmark Texas tip.
Speaker 2 (16:01):
I mean, I think it's I think.
Speaker 4 (16:02):
Just by virtue. How funny that sounds.
Speaker 5 (16:04):
We should we should rubber stamp that right now and
expedite it because.
Speaker 7 (16:08):
Yeah, delicious juice Texas tip.
Speaker 5 (16:11):
But you know, Texas gets to kind of kind of
glom onto all these stakes because any place that you go,
if they have a bigger cut of the steak, it's
always the Texas Ribbi or the Texas something around because
it's bigger, and everything's bigger in Texas.
Speaker 4 (16:24):
Like that's enough, Texas. Like, here's the deal.
Speaker 5 (16:27):
As soon as your football team wins another super Bowl,
the Dallas Cowboys like, when they win another super Bowl,
you guys can have one thing that you can rename.
Speaker 4 (16:35):
And it can't be the New York Strip.
Speaker 1 (16:37):
That's the rules give them. Even if Houston wins.
Speaker 2 (16:39):
Yeah, I was gonna say about Houston the super Bowl.
Speaker 1 (16:42):
Those two could get it done. I like the Texas tip.
That does sound pretty good.
Speaker 2 (16:48):
Just the tip in Texas.
Speaker 6 (16:50):
Yeah, it's just funny because it's a huge piece of
meat for it. I mean, and that is all about Texas,
right where the tip is massive.
Speaker 1 (16:56):
Yeah, that makes sense. Cord just joined us. Hey buddy,
you're just talking about food, steaks, meats, New York strip meats, right,
what is it?
Speaker 5 (17:06):
You know?
Speaker 8 (17:06):
If if Texas wants to name a meat, uh, they
got to invent it. I mean that the whole thing
with the New York strip, that that cut was that
came from New York. So that's why it's called the
New York Strip. If they wanted their own cut, they
got to invent their own cut.
Speaker 1 (17:19):
And it's just I feel like that's some you know,
some crazy politician in Texas. It's like says, well, I
want I want texts, I want I want Texas to
be its own thing, to be its own country. I
feel like it's the same kind of crazy think it's
never gonna happen. You're never gonna call it the Texas
Strip or whatever.
Speaker 5 (17:33):
You know.
Speaker 4 (17:34):
Like what I mean was you.
Speaker 8 (17:35):
Never said the same thing about the Gulf of Mexico.
But that's that's not Mexico anymore.
Speaker 1 (17:39):
I always feel like that's in like four years, it's
probably gonna go back.
Speaker 4 (17:43):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (17:43):
I mean, god, the way that they were.
Speaker 2 (17:45):
One of the only people who call it that, So yeah, I.
Speaker 4 (17:49):
Was, and I did not hear.
Speaker 5 (17:51):
I didn't hear anybody even mention it, like the I
was just in the golf and I seriously, nobody I
never heard anybody mentioned is that we were either in Mexico,
you're talking about the countries like it's yeah.
Speaker 1 (18:03):
I just feel like, I mean, this isn't to be
political at all, as not political at all. I just
feel like when four years is up, it's probably just
gonna revert back.
Speaker 4 (18:10):
The way it was.
Speaker 7 (18:10):
Something that will just go back to history.
Speaker 1 (18:13):
But we'll see who knows this. Everything can melt here
in a couple of months.
Speaker 2 (18:16):
That's true.
Speaker 6 (18:16):
Now the real question is why do they call them
rocky mountain oysters?
Speaker 3 (18:20):
Right?
Speaker 1 (18:21):
Bullballs?
Speaker 6 (18:22):
Were those also invented in the Rocky Mountains? Or is
that just like, oh, well that's super backwoody. So I
don't know it's a I mean because rocky mountains and
a bowl don't really seem like they go hand in hand.
Speaker 2 (18:34):
Maybe they're referring to the region of the cut I.
Speaker 1 (18:37):
Don't or the ridges of the testicle. Let's find out, Gooley,
I'm sure will know.
Speaker 7 (18:41):
I went to I didn't get a good answer, but.
Speaker 4 (18:44):
I got the texture.
Speaker 5 (18:46):
It says Rocky Mountain oysters get their name from the
Rocky Mountains and their similar texture to oysters. Oh, they're
known as other names, including lamb fries and wavos de toro,
which is really that one's right on the nose.
Speaker 1 (18:58):
Okay, wavel still tore eggs of bowl.
Speaker 5 (19:02):
I guess that's eggs, not balls. But you know, my
Spanish just a little rusty. We figured that out the
last five days.
Speaker 6 (19:07):
Because you can definitely just outside a bend in Madras.
We we that's where I tried a Rocky Mountain oyster,
so it's on the menu in some places. My mom
made us all take a bite of one, and then
she was going to eat one, and then she just balked.
She just straight up said no. And it was like,
that's that's completely inappropriate. But everyone already had testicle on
(19:29):
their breath and she had she had checkmated us, all right,
So don't eat a test without somebody else having a bite.
Speaker 5 (19:38):
Yeah, they're they're nothing to write home about. I would
rather have a regular oyster if you're gonna had me over.
Speaker 1 (19:43):
When we all eat, when we all eat chicken, hard
said bacon and beer?
Speaker 2 (19:46):
Did court eat one? Yeah?
Speaker 4 (19:49):
I was the one?
Speaker 8 (19:50):
You you you said you didn't want to eat one.
I was gonna eat one that you said you would
eat one if I ate one?
Speaker 1 (19:55):
Okay, that's right, I remember now.
Speaker 8 (19:57):
Yeah, And I said I was going to make sure
you ate it first, because I could see you backing
out after I.
Speaker 3 (20:01):
No, I was.
Speaker 1 (20:02):
I did it, man, it was awful. I did. I
swallowed mine like a pill, though I didn't even chew it,
because you know, I chewed forever.
Speaker 4 (20:08):
It looked.
Speaker 1 (20:09):
It looked really chewy, and like I would have been
chewing forever. So I just swallowed.
Speaker 7 (20:13):
You're lucky you didn't choke. That's a big It.
Speaker 1 (20:15):
Was kind of big I had. I had a hard
time with it, but I tasted that thing for like
two days.
Speaker 7 (20:20):
God, thank god you don't have a gag reflexor you'd
be fucked.
Speaker 8 (20:24):
I'm just glad it wasn't like like liver like that.
The consistency of liver is that's just kind.
Speaker 1 (20:28):
Of It wasn't too far off of that.
Speaker 6 (20:31):
I guess it was more like just really overdone chicken
with no flavor.
Speaker 2 (20:35):
It didn't taste bad. I mean, it's just chewy, yeah,
it was.
Speaker 7 (20:39):
I couldn't get it to break it down to like
a smooth swallow.
Speaker 1 (20:43):
Yeah, yeah, I.
Speaker 5 (20:46):
Fried chicken gizzards. No, no, it's just a stomachs. It's
actually it's I I actually didn't mind him that bad.
Like it wasn't It was a weird texture again, but
it kind of tasted like fried chicken a little bit
to me.
Speaker 4 (20:59):
So I don't know.
Speaker 5 (21:00):
It's not something i'll seek out, but I was glad
that I tried it, you know.
Speaker 1 (21:04):
Yeah, I'm glad I tried it because they didn't taste terrible.
It was just more the thought of that it was
a chicken heart and that was just really chewy in
his pocket. Yeah, yeah, they were pocketing out.
Speaker 2 (21:16):
Yeah, he pulled them out and it looks like you
had wrapped a baked potato and foil.
Speaker 6 (21:20):
He literally pulled him out of his pocket, like you
want a wallet that it was under his butt cheek
like and that's where.
Speaker 1 (21:25):
That pocket sits. And I and I was like, I
came out eating your chicken. I'm not eating your pocket meat.
Speaker 2 (21:30):
I appreciate him keeping him warm.
Speaker 1 (21:32):
For us, but badly we all did? We all did?
We all gave in So anyway, if you want to
hear that, it's on the Bacon and Beer episode from Like,
was that the twenty first Yes? First, we didn't talk
about this today. What's the most memorable Oscar moment of
all time? Slap?
Speaker 4 (21:50):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (21:51):
I would think that that would be the slap, at
least for me. What about you, Laura? Is there another
moment bigger than the Will Smith slap?
Speaker 3 (21:57):
No?
Speaker 2 (21:57):
I don't think so. I mean, Adrian brode nearly six
minute speech was pretty crazy, but I don't think that's
probably the most memorable.
Speaker 6 (22:06):
A five finger discount from one of the biggest stars
in the world is pretty hard to be Yeah.
Speaker 1 (22:10):
Well fifty three yes, go ahead.
Speaker 4 (22:12):
I was gonna say it.
Speaker 8 (22:13):
It's up there with Travolta screwing up.
Speaker 1 (22:16):
Oh yeah, I don't even know what he said, but
we're not the only ones. Fifty three percent of Americans
believe that no Oscars moment will ever top the Will
Smith Chris Rock slap from twenty twenty two. Twenty five
percent of viewers are interested in the actual Awards content,
and twenty two percent tune in for the unexpected moments.
(22:38):
The Talk of Research survey of about two thousand adults
found that forty one percent of respondents would prefer to
go to the Grammys.
Speaker 7 (22:44):
And we're weird voyeurs too, like we want to stare
at stars and see what they're wearing.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
I got no interest in any of those things. I
get the three hour Grammy performance. Most of the artists
that you don't even care.
Speaker 2 (22:54):
About to go to the Grammys if I had decent seats.
I don't want to sit in the nosebleeds for the Grammys.
Speaker 6 (22:59):
I feel like the Grammys would be more fun than
the Oscars because there's musical acts. Yeah, and I could
treat it more like a concert and less like a
just a bunch of douchebags up there telling me how
they're better than.
Speaker 1 (23:10):
Unless unless the Oscars will have a really cool performance,
like when when Robin Williams came out to sing Blame Canada.
Do you remember that? Yes, that was pretty fucking incredible.
Speaker 6 (23:20):
And Eminem also one time at the Oscars right when
he when his song was nominated.
Speaker 2 (23:25):
Oh yeah, so like Best Original.
Speaker 7 (23:26):
Like original song normally gets to play.
Speaker 2 (23:29):
Like Ariana Grande and Cynthia Rivo of Wicked. They performed this.
Speaker 1 (23:33):
Year everyone saw you'll get like a cool performance, but
mostly it's like like boring.
Speaker 6 (23:37):
And yeah, it's not really my bag at all. I
think it's for people who are more obsessed with celebrities.
Speaker 1 (23:43):
Yeah, I agree. I think the Grammys would be a
lot more fun.
Speaker 5 (23:46):
Sure, Grammys do have a little bit of a looser
I feel like feel around the show. It doesn't have
to be so buttoned up. Wasn't the Grammys where Borat
came in on like a rope and just landed right
in Eminem's lap?
Speaker 1 (23:58):
I think I was just the MTV.
Speaker 6 (23:59):
Or Yeah, back when those would have been fun to
be at like you don't know what's gonna happen.
Speaker 1 (24:07):
Yeah, because back in the day, man, remember when when
when limbizguit won and Rage against the Machine was pissed
and the basis climbed that that sky when Tommy Lee
and Kid Rock actually fought on the floor of the
MTV VMAs.
Speaker 7 (24:20):
Gosh, there are such great moments, all of those things.
Speaker 1 (24:23):
Yeah, they cut away from it, which pisses me off
because I'm thinking, like, that's what people want to see,
is Kid Rock and Tommy Lee fighting over Pamela.
Speaker 6 (24:29):
And you remember when Eminem just to bring him up
one more time, when he walked in and Hulk smashed
Carson Daily, Christina Aguilera, fred Duras just walked down the
line and just berated them all that was. That was
a coming to the table party for that guy.
Speaker 1 (24:48):
Yes, I don't do it like that anymore. Fort would
rather go to the Grammys than thirty three percent would
accept an invite to the Oscars if they I would
definitely go. I was invited invited.
Speaker 7 (24:59):
I'm just trying to figure out how I afford the
tux seed.
Speaker 1 (25:01):
And I'm taking the strongest gummy I can I can
get my hands on that.
Speaker 6 (25:05):
And I'm taking public transit to like two blocks away,
and then I need a ride.
Speaker 1 (25:09):
Yeah, yeah, because I don't want to. I don't have
I don't have anything fancy. So if I could just
hop in the back of your.
Speaker 7 (25:14):
To slip me in, yeah, if I could get a
ride with someone else.
Speaker 5 (25:18):
Is it the Oscars that Matt Stone and Trey Parker
did mushrooms and went in and dresses?
Speaker 4 (25:23):
I think so?
Speaker 1 (25:24):
I think so. Yes, it was yeah that way to
the Didn't you say they were high? They were high
on acid?
Speaker 4 (25:30):
Right?
Speaker 7 (25:30):
Mushrooms are mushroom at the other I mean they were tripping.
Speaker 1 (25:33):
They were high on something.
Speaker 7 (25:34):
Yeah, and they were like, uh, imagine being in is
for real right now?
Speaker 4 (25:41):
Yeah?
Speaker 8 (25:41):
I think they immediately regretted it, Like once they got
on the red carpet, They're like, oh, this is.
Speaker 1 (25:45):
A bad knocking. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (25:47):
Yeah, but it was hilarious for all of us.
Speaker 1 (25:49):
Though, turns into a bad trip.
Speaker 7 (25:50):
You're in a dress and Tommy Lee Jones is right there.
Speaker 1 (25:52):
Where are we?
Speaker 4 (25:53):
Right?
Speaker 1 (25:54):
That's great? This sounds like a fun day. Go to
YouTube and type just type in Trey Parker and Matt
Stone at the Oscars from years ago, and you'll see,
you'll see them dressed as ladies and they commit they're
super funny man. Yeah, and they're high. Just know that
they're high out of their minds. Oh they were high
on LSD Y.
Speaker 7 (26:14):
You were right. I mean it's all split and hairs
once your trip at balls.
Speaker 5 (26:18):
Yeah, right, in a group of people like that, where
you're surrounded by some of the biggest celebrities in the world.
I don't think it matters what drug you're on. If
you're on drugs, it can go bad or it can
be fun. And fortunately, I feel like Matt and Trey
kind of made it fun. Like when they told that
story years later, it's like, oh, that makes sense.
Speaker 1 (26:35):
I love it.
Speaker 4 (26:35):
Now.
Speaker 5 (26:36):
I'm a fan again of the Oscars. I've always been
a fan of those two.
Speaker 6 (26:39):
Because they probably took the drugs on the way and
then you're waiting in a queue of stars, so you're
they're they're they're kicking in.
Speaker 7 (26:46):
Guaranteed, those dudes are peeking on.
Speaker 6 (26:47):
The drug as they're on the carpet, which is the
hardest thing to get through.
Speaker 7 (26:52):
I can only imagine they're just cooking eggs.
Speaker 2 (26:56):
Yikes.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
Well, all right, that's uh. I think On that note,
we will I'll see you tomorrow. We'll have another Donkey
Show podcast, and we'll also have on a live show
another pair of tickets to see Jerry Seinfeld. Give me
your best Jerry Seinfeld impression?
Speaker 4 (27:08):
Marcus, what's the deal with customs?
Speaker 6 (27:12):
You go in?
Speaker 4 (27:13):
It's like they don't even want you here. I don't
want to be here either.
Speaker 1 (27:18):
It was pretty good, how about at all? All right?
So tomorrow I think at seven thirty we'll give those away.
We'll see you in my transport terminated.
Speaker 3 (27:27):
You've been listening to Tanner, Drew and Laura's Donkey Show,
heard daily at one oh five nine that brew dot com.
May God have mercy on all of our souls.
Let me know when you're ready.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
I bet that's a good start.
Speaker 3 (00:07):
This is Tanner, Drew and Laura's Donkey Show, Donkey Show.
Speaker 1 (00:14):
What's Happening to Kiddos? Thanks for checking out Tanner, Drew
and Laura's Donkey Show pod casto heard on line one
five nine of brew dot Com, the iHeartRadio app or
wherever you listen to podcasts. I'm Tanner Drew's here a
Laura's here bus rest. Marcus is now back from his
trip to Cankun.
Speaker 2 (00:31):
Did you yeah, did you ever figure out where you
were where you're going? Can you tell us?
Speaker 4 (00:36):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (00:37):
I figured it out right about the time he said
we are now making our final descent into can Coon
And I was like, that's nice.
Speaker 1 (00:44):
Nice. I actually text Marcus. I don't know whatever we
It was like, I think of the last Donkey Show
last week. I said, I'm gonna text Marcus and see
if he found out where he was going. Yet he
texted me back like like an hour later, Yeah, and
he goes, yeah, I only knew because I saw the signs.
She's literally just he did have no idea where he
was going. To me, he just followed his wife the.
Speaker 5 (01:06):
Uh and I and guess what perfect idea too, because
she she got me everywhere I needed to be, and
the things that the few things, very few things that
happened that were unsavory on this trip were completely out
of her control.
Speaker 4 (01:19):
It was customs, it was things like that.
Speaker 5 (01:21):
So following my wife proved to be an absolutely banger
of a plan.
Speaker 4 (01:26):
I mean, I'm just really happy.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
This is a good test on her part though, because
now she knows she can lead you blindly anywhere.
Speaker 1 (01:32):
And she's always known that.
Speaker 6 (01:34):
The nice thing for Marcus in this scenario is that
it's one of the few places on the planet where
it is the exact same packing job for Cancun and Cabo.
The only difference is the color of the water. That
is the only difference between those two places, and a
little bit of the clients.
Speaker 5 (01:51):
And I mean it was it was great, man. I
I my first trip to Mexico. I did I think?
I texted Tanner a pretty angry, you know, assessment of
what was going on in customs. Their their automated machine
broke down where they scan your passport, scan your face
and you walk through. At the same moment that a
(02:11):
plane from Russia with four hundred people flew in and
dumped them into Customs. So I was in what felt
like a festival of you know, fifteen hundred people, nobody
knowing where to go, no stanchions directing you, no people
telling you where to go, just chaos. People were passing out,
There was a fight that broke out, like it was.
Speaker 4 (02:31):
It was wild at.
Speaker 5 (02:32):
Customs, and I was instantly over Mexico before I even
actually officially got into Mexico. After we got past that point,
it completely changed. It was a fantastic trip that I
was do you know angry.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
Do you know how the fire broke out? Or just
people cranky and hot?
Speaker 5 (02:48):
And it was Yeah, it was like they release you
in on the back side of the room and everybody's
trying to get to the other side of the room.
And because there were no stanchions, you know, in an
airport customs in the United States, every place you go
you are guided by a rope line, like you just
can't get outside of where you're supposed to go. They
funnel you like sheep in a farm. And in this one,
(03:09):
they just dumped everybody into a room. And so like
if you've ever tried to get around at a really
busy festival. Imagine everybody having a suitcase and then doing that.
Speaker 4 (03:17):
It was unbelievable.
Speaker 5 (03:19):
And it get to the point where I was trying
to be friendly because I really started to feel the tension.
After the first hour and a half, you really started
to feel people start to get angry. And while I
was angry, I started like, if somebody cracked a joke,
I would laugh or like slap a high five to
somebody that looks like they're having a good try a
little bit and exactly, dude. And finally some guy from
(03:41):
the airport stepped up and said, like eighteen and over,
Americans this way, and somebody goes, did he just say
Americans this way? And I was like the team captain.
All of a sudden, I'm like, yeah, let's go Americans to.
Speaker 1 (03:52):
The left, Captain America.
Speaker 7 (03:55):
Well, those customs can be so aggressive.
Speaker 6 (03:57):
Like you know, the first time I went on my honeymoon,
had no idea sauntered because they drop you right on
the tarmac in these places too. Sauntered in there only
to be at the back of a hundreds of person
people lying. If you see me get off an airplane.
Now in Cabo or Cancun, I have two kids under
my arms, and I'm running like you are running for
(04:20):
the escalator, and then you're running down the escalator because
there's nine planes coming in at once. Yeah, and if
you can't get to the front of that room, you're screwed.
And what you know, the whole time is thirty feet
away or five bars with margarita's and cold beers, and
I can't get there. I'm stuck in here with a
dude with the lamest Hawaiian shirt and the breath.
Speaker 7 (04:40):
Oh, you know, it's a thing.
Speaker 5 (04:43):
And it's a compounding thing too, is like you're never
it's never all gonna go right. Like we finally got
to the front of the line. Ashley goes first. She
walks up, scans her passport, they take the picture. She's
through the booth in fifteen seconds. I walk up, scan
my passport, The camera breaks down and pinwheels on this
guy's alcola.
Speaker 1 (05:02):
You do look a little bit like a terrorist. So
there's probably that. So I think tomorrow. It's funny because
I put this on the prep for for some time
this week. But tomorrow we could or Friday, we could
do what happened? What did what did TSA or customs
put you through, you know, did you have to did
you get take into a room and then get the gloves,
the glove the glove treatment.
Speaker 6 (05:23):
I think it's a great idea Marcus probably got to
experience because after after he goes through customs, then he
gets his bag and then you go through a room
where it's red.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
Light green light.
Speaker 6 (05:33):
Now I doubt Laura's done it because he's gone to Mexico.
Do you know what the red light green light is?
Speaker 7 (05:38):
Tanner?
Speaker 1 (05:39):
I don't know what that is.
Speaker 6 (05:40):
So you walk up and you put your bags or
were you actually you don't put your bags on anything.
You walk up and you hit a button, and that
button either turns red or green based on a random draw.
If it turns red, your bags all go through another
thing and get searched.
Speaker 7 (05:55):
If it turns green, the door to paradise opens. It
is the why I heldest thing.
Speaker 6 (06:00):
And I'm not saying Marcus was traveling with contraband, but
likely traveling with contraband. That red light green light to
me has always been a very clinchy moment.
Speaker 1 (06:10):
No, it's yeah scary.
Speaker 3 (06:11):
No.
Speaker 1 (06:11):
I remember there was a time I went through TSA
and they found something in my bag. They wanted to check,
and then they wanted to take me to another room. Hey, goes,
do you want to go to another room to do this?
And I was like do what? Yeah, you talk now,
it's scary, and he goes, well, we need to do
a like a full patull. We got to go through
your bag and how we have to do a full
pat down and that means we have to touch your
(06:32):
genitals and stuff. And I was like, just do it here,
just get it over with.
Speaker 6 (06:35):
And that's what red light green light would do to
you in Mexico at random draw. And now I feel
like sometime because I've never had it happen when I've
had kids, so I feel like they can kind of like,
you know, make it turn green.
Speaker 1 (06:48):
But I don't want your kids slowing down the line
right exactly, pick a single person and torture them.
Speaker 7 (06:53):
Did you go through red light green lights.
Speaker 4 (06:55):
Your drugs on your kids, Marcus?
Speaker 1 (06:57):
No.
Speaker 5 (06:57):
Actually, I think that they might have shut it down
because of the chaos that was happening, because it was
such a such a shit show in there. They led
us through like a walkway and it said if you
have something to declare, go right, and if you don't.
Speaker 4 (07:11):
Get the fuck out of that. They did not want
people in there.
Speaker 5 (07:15):
What happened to me was after after I got maybe
flagged as as slightly terrorist looking, I guess they they
decided to beard room.
Speaker 1 (07:25):
Full man's angry. Yeah.
Speaker 5 (07:28):
Well they went ahead and shuffled me over to one
agent that was sitting there that was taking care of
the people who didn't get through the machine for whatever reason.
So you didn't need your boarding pass when I went
through the little the little uh tunnel and it didn't
scan my face that it screwed up. So when I
got to this lady, I needed my boarding pass. Ashley
(07:48):
had the boarding passes on her phone and was already
through customs. The last thing that she could do before
they shuffled her away from me was basically tossed me
her phone. I unlocked it. I went to the app.
I go to open the boarding pass. Oh yeah, we've
been standing here for three and a half hours. This
boarding pass doesn't exist on the app anymore. You can't
pull it up. That flight's been landed. And the lady
(08:11):
doesn't speak much English. She I show her and I say,
this is what I've got, And I showed her a
screenshot of Ashley. Bless her heart, she took a screenshot
of the wrong boarding pass. I said, this is the
flight that got me to the flight that got me here.
Will this work? And she goes, no, of course. And
I came back and I said, here's proof that I
paid for. I showed her the email. I said, here's
(08:31):
all the info. No, I can't call my wife because
I have her phone. Yeah, she's out of sight. I
can't do anything.
Speaker 1 (08:38):
And I did.
Speaker 5 (08:39):
I had about a probably a fifteen second lapse of
I said, so what, you just send me back to
fucking Oregon. And she goes, sir, please stand behind the
red line, and just basically was like, figure it out.
And I don't even remember how I eventually got the
proof that there was a boarding pass, but I will
tell you what I learned. Put that in your wallet,
(09:01):
in your Google wallet, your Apple wallet, whatever it is,
because it never goes away when it's in there. And
that really would have helped. It would have saved probably
forty five minutes, and I don't know how many years
off the end of my life because I was stressing it.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
That custom shit is Marcus is right, It's super scary.
We went on a cruise once a long time ago,
this bud Light Port Paradise cruise. Yeah, and it took
off out of Miami. So we had a flight of Florida.
We had a flight to Miami. We get there, we
get to the gate to like I could see the boat.
All I have to do is pass the gate, walk
down the ramp and I'm on the ship and they
(09:33):
say to us, oh, your your passport card won't work.
Speaker 6 (09:39):
When we had been told that because I had a passport,
but we were told that their website said passport a
card will work. So that's what I got instead of
the passport. And then they were telling me it wouldn't work.
And they told me and like eight other people and
who all have the same thing. And there's one dude
who was melting down. Yeah, I bet they called police
and everything. I mean, you fly all the across the.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
Yeah, and I said that I go. So you're just
sending us back to Oregon, like we just we just
took however long that flight is six seven eight hours
to get you, you're just gonna send us back. So
they made it work. They finally did.
Speaker 7 (10:11):
We did get you on that boat.
Speaker 1 (10:12):
Yeah, but they they almost tased this one person, I swear, and.
Speaker 6 (10:16):
It's hard to come to offer the heat of that,
you know, like when you know Marcus is saying the
trip is ruined and then it isn't. And same thing
with you when you're getting on that boat, on that boat.
When I was in Cancun, I got left on the
curb because they delayed flight took us to the wrong terminal,
so our shuttle never came. You are the worst, like
and I don't know if Marcus was this way on
(10:37):
the on the on the shuttle to the hotel, but
you're like you feel like a thumb because everyone else
is happy and you're pissed off. Yeah, right, Like I
remember being so pissed and then like you know, like
twenty minutes into the drive, I realized I'm staring at paradise.
But it is like and even you on that boat, Tanner,
I bet it took a bit to like.
Speaker 1 (11:00):
Well, I mean I was, I wasn't that upset.
Speaker 6 (11:03):
I was upset, but like at least you were on Yeah,
I guess, yeah, he was a left you out there
for hour.
Speaker 1 (11:07):
The other guy, I think he I think he jumped
off the back.
Speaker 7 (11:09):
Eventually, yeah, and made him go back for him because
he is a dick.
Speaker 5 (11:13):
Yeah, yeah, it was I think the one thing, and
I'll use this to make a bigger point about the
experience altogether, is Yeah, for the first twenty minutes of
that car ride, and it was just Ashley and I.
Thank god we weren't on like a shuttle full of
people headed to the same resort. We got one dude
to pick us up from like a tour company, and
he came in a nice rig. It was air conditioned,
and as he started talking to us, he was so friendly,
(11:36):
he was so nice, he wanted to answer questions. He
told us I wouldn't have known about the plane full
of Russians, that it dumped into the middle of this
chaos that was already going on, And he just made
me like the tension release a little bit. And yeah,
by the time we got to check in, I was
I was off of that you know, anger high. But
I'll tell you right now, some of the best serve
(12:00):
across the board. I don't care if you're talking about
hotel staff, waiters and waitresses, bus boys, people at the pool.
I don't think I've ever had a better experience on
any vacation I've ever been on where it was like
those people were there to serve us, and they were
so incredibly friendly. The waiters at the restaurants had the
perfect amount of banner, not enough to that you want
(12:22):
them to stick around.
Speaker 4 (12:23):
You know, you're you're not waiting.
Speaker 5 (12:24):
For him to leave, but still that you feel like
you had an experience rather than you just went to
a restaurant. And I couldn't believe it. I was blown
away by the quality of service. Like I was tipping,
like I have way more pasos than what I do bro.
I was throwings at everybody because it just made me
feel good. And I feel like, like that's what they're
working for, so let's take care of them.
Speaker 3 (12:44):
You know.
Speaker 4 (12:45):
I was a thiper across the board.
Speaker 6 (12:47):
Yeah, they're completely underpaid. You meet people from all over
the country who tell you the whole week that you're there.
Speaker 7 (12:52):
Oh no tips included. These people do not get that money.
Speaker 6 (12:57):
And I mean you've got how they are around children
as well is incredible. Like a lady could be cleaning
the hallway and she'll just like take a knee and
like grab a flower off of the side and like
give it to your kid. It's a it's a kind
of service that we could stand to take some notes.
Speaker 5 (13:16):
Absolutely, absolutely, and especially as like post COVID service in America.
I don't know if you guys have seen this, but
it's kind of fallen off a little bit because a
lot of people threw the finger to those jobs and
didn't want them anymore. And it was just a very
refreshing experience. A plus on the service, A plus on
the weather, Oh my god, eighty the whole time. Yeah,
(13:37):
I got a little sunburnt, but it was perfect, so nice,
just you know, great across the board. And then yesterday
sucked because it took us what took us seven hours
to get there, took us twenty hours to get home.
Speaker 4 (13:49):
Because of the flights we had to books.
Speaker 5 (13:51):
So I woke up at four am yesterday and we
did not go to bed until right around midnight last night,
and we got home, so it was a twenty hour day.
Speaker 6 (13:59):
That's what three hour difference too, So you got to
think it's three more hours.
Speaker 7 (14:03):
Than that, so it's almost a.
Speaker 5 (14:07):
I was toasted last night, no question, and and uh,
but dude, I would definitely go back. I think Tanner,
when I texted you, I had told you that I
was never coming back I'll definitely go back whenever that happened.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
I mean, it's super fantastic.
Speaker 2 (14:19):
As soon as you get to the beach, you're like,
oh cash when you run.
Speaker 1 (14:24):
Yeah, good information I have. Well, glad you had a
good time. Marcus. Uh, I don't know that Court is
going to join us this morning. He made later, but
he's got things going on it. I wanted to talk
to him about the things a few things we talked
about on the show today. I mean, we can talk
to Marcus about this, like, uh, like they're gonna possibly
(14:45):
change well, Texas wants to change the name of New
York Steak like a New York strip to Texas strip.
Speaker 7 (14:52):
Text me got the most cows? Yeah, Texas Steak.
Speaker 2 (14:56):
That makes sense, right.
Speaker 5 (14:58):
No, don't mess with don't mess with Steak. Like there's
only so many institutions that we have anymore. It's like
baseball and steak. Can we just I think that this
whole name like renaming thing is starting to become almost
a plague where everybody wants to do it now because
the Gulf of America actually showed up on Google and
it's I think that's bad for us. Like, I'm sure
(15:19):
there's a reason that they call it a New York strip.
It probably was the best thing that they could get
their hands on, and New York was the only city
when they learned that there's strips or the stake's great,
it should be in New York City.
Speaker 4 (15:31):
And then they called it a New York strip.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
That's where, Yeah, that's when that kind of started being sold.
Speaker 1 (15:39):
I always thought it was because it was shaped like Manhattan.
Speaker 6 (15:41):
It's got a little bit of that look, doesn't Now, Marcus,
what do you think of this now where we agree
that you shouldn't get the name the New York strip
just in the fact that it's very confusing to change it.
But what about if it got like, you know, a
try tip. It's not associated to any landmark Texas tip.
Speaker 2 (16:01):
I mean, I think it's I think.
Speaker 4 (16:02):
Just by virtue. How funny that sounds.
Speaker 5 (16:04):
We should we should rubber stamp that right now and
expedite it because.
Speaker 7 (16:08):
Yeah, delicious juice Texas tip.
Speaker 5 (16:11):
But you know, Texas gets to kind of kind of
glom onto all these stakes because any place that you go,
if they have a bigger cut of the steak, it's
always the Texas Ribbi or the Texas something around because
it's bigger, and everything's bigger in Texas.
Speaker 4 (16:24):
Like that's enough, Texas. Like, here's the deal.
Speaker 5 (16:27):
As soon as your football team wins another super Bowl,
the Dallas Cowboys like, when they win another super Bowl,
you guys can have one thing that you can rename.
Speaker 4 (16:35):
And it can't be the New York Strip.
Speaker 1 (16:37):
That's the rules give them. Even if Houston wins.
Speaker 2 (16:39):
Yeah, I was gonna say about Houston the super Bowl.
Speaker 1 (16:42):
Those two could get it done. I like the Texas tip.
That does sound pretty good.
Speaker 2 (16:48):
Just the tip in Texas.
Speaker 6 (16:50):
Yeah, it's just funny because it's a huge piece of
meat for it. I mean, and that is all about Texas,
right where the tip is massive.
Speaker 1 (16:56):
Yeah, that makes sense. Cord just joined us. Hey buddy,
you're just talking about food, steaks, meats, New York strip meats, right,
what is it?
Speaker 5 (17:06):
You know?
Speaker 8 (17:06):
If if Texas wants to name a meat, uh, they
got to invent it. I mean that the whole thing
with the New York strip, that that cut was that
came from New York. So that's why it's called the
New York Strip. If they wanted their own cut, they
got to invent their own cut.
Speaker 1 (17:19):
And it's just I feel like that's some you know,
some crazy politician in Texas. It's like says, well, I
want I want texts, I want I want Texas to
be its own thing, to be its own country. I
feel like it's the same kind of crazy think it's
never gonna happen. You're never gonna call it the Texas
Strip or whatever.
Speaker 5 (17:33):
You know.
Speaker 4 (17:34):
Like what I mean was you.
Speaker 8 (17:35):
Never said the same thing about the Gulf of Mexico.
But that's that's not Mexico anymore.
Speaker 1 (17:39):
I always feel like that's in like four years, it's
probably gonna go back.
Speaker 4 (17:43):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (17:43):
I mean, god, the way that they were.
Speaker 2 (17:45):
One of the only people who call it that, So yeah, I.
Speaker 4 (17:49):
Was, and I did not hear.
Speaker 5 (17:51):
I didn't hear anybody even mention it, like the I
was just in the golf and I seriously, nobody I
never heard anybody mentioned is that we were either in Mexico,
you're talking about the countries like it's yeah.
Speaker 1 (18:03):
I just feel like, I mean, this isn't to be
political at all, as not political at all. I just
feel like when four years is up, it's probably just
gonna revert back.
Speaker 4 (18:10):
The way it was.
Speaker 7 (18:10):
Something that will just go back to history.
Speaker 1 (18:13):
But we'll see who knows this. Everything can melt here
in a couple of months.
Speaker 2 (18:16):
That's true.
Speaker 6 (18:16):
Now the real question is why do they call them
rocky mountain oysters?
Speaker 3 (18:20):
Right?
Speaker 1 (18:21):
Bullballs?
Speaker 6 (18:22):
Were those also invented in the Rocky Mountains? Or is
that just like, oh, well that's super backwoody. So I
don't know it's a I mean because rocky mountains and
a bowl don't really seem like they go hand in hand.
Speaker 2 (18:34):
Maybe they're referring to the region of the cut I.
Speaker 1 (18:37):
Don't or the ridges of the testicle. Let's find out, Gooley,
I'm sure will know.
Speaker 7 (18:41):
I went to I didn't get a good answer, but.
Speaker 4 (18:44):
I got the texture.
Speaker 5 (18:46):
It says Rocky Mountain oysters get their name from the
Rocky Mountains and their similar texture to oysters. Oh, they're
known as other names, including lamb fries and wavos de toro,
which is really that one's right on the nose.
Speaker 1 (18:58):
Okay, wavel still tore eggs of bowl.
Speaker 5 (19:02):
I guess that's eggs, not balls. But you know, my
Spanish just a little rusty. We figured that out the
last five days.
Speaker 6 (19:07):
Because you can definitely just outside a bend in Madras.
We we that's where I tried a Rocky Mountain oyster,
so it's on the menu in some places. My mom
made us all take a bite of one, and then
she was going to eat one, and then she just balked.
She just straight up said no. And it was like,
that's that's completely inappropriate. But everyone already had testicle on
(19:29):
their breath and she had she had checkmated us, all right,
So don't eat a test without somebody else having a bite.
Speaker 5 (19:38):
Yeah, they're they're nothing to write home about. I would
rather have a regular oyster if you're gonna had me over.
Speaker 1 (19:43):
When we all eat, when we all eat chicken, hard
said bacon and beer?
Speaker 2 (19:46):
Did court eat one? Yeah?
Speaker 4 (19:49):
I was the one?
Speaker 8 (19:50):
You you you said you didn't want to eat one.
I was gonna eat one that you said you would
eat one if I ate one?
Speaker 1 (19:55):
Okay, that's right, I remember now.
Speaker 8 (19:57):
Yeah, And I said I was going to make sure
you ate it first, because I could see you backing
out after I.
Speaker 3 (20:01):
No, I was.
Speaker 1 (20:02):
I did it, man, it was awful. I did. I
swallowed mine like a pill, though I didn't even chew it,
because you know, I chewed forever.
Speaker 4 (20:08):
It looked.
Speaker 1 (20:09):
It looked really chewy, and like I would have been
chewing forever. So I just swallowed.
Speaker 7 (20:13):
You're lucky you didn't choke. That's a big It.
Speaker 1 (20:15):
Was kind of big I had. I had a hard
time with it, but I tasted that thing for like
two days.
Speaker 7 (20:20):
God, thank god you don't have a gag reflexor you'd
be fucked.
Speaker 8 (20:24):
I'm just glad it wasn't like like liver like that.
The consistency of liver is that's just kind.
Speaker 1 (20:28):
Of It wasn't too far off of that.
Speaker 6 (20:31):
I guess it was more like just really overdone chicken
with no flavor.
Speaker 2 (20:35):
It didn't taste bad. I mean, it's just chewy, yeah,
it was.
Speaker 7 (20:39):
I couldn't get it to break it down to like
a smooth swallow.
Speaker 1 (20:43):
Yeah, yeah, I.
Speaker 5 (20:46):
Fried chicken gizzards. No, no, it's just a stomachs. It's
actually it's I I actually didn't mind him that bad.
Like it wasn't It was a weird texture again, but
it kind of tasted like fried chicken a little bit
to me.
Speaker 4 (20:59):
So I don't know.
Speaker 5 (21:00):
It's not something i'll seek out, but I was glad
that I tried it, you know.
Speaker 1 (21:04):
Yeah, I'm glad I tried it because they didn't taste terrible.
It was just more the thought of that it was
a chicken heart and that was just really chewy in
his pocket. Yeah, yeah, they were pocketing out.
Speaker 2 (21:16):
Yeah, he pulled them out and it looks like you
had wrapped a baked potato and foil.
Speaker 6 (21:20):
He literally pulled him out of his pocket, like you
want a wallet that it was under his butt cheek
like and that's where.
Speaker 1 (21:25):
That pocket sits. And I and I was like, I
came out eating your chicken. I'm not eating your pocket meat.
Speaker 2 (21:30):
I appreciate him keeping him warm.
Speaker 1 (21:32):
For us, but badly we all did? We all did?
We all gave in So anyway, if you want to
hear that, it's on the Bacon and Beer episode from Like,
was that the twenty first Yes? First, we didn't talk
about this today. What's the most memorable Oscar moment of
all time? Slap?
Speaker 4 (21:50):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (21:51):
I would think that that would be the slap, at
least for me. What about you, Laura? Is there another
moment bigger than the Will Smith slap?
Speaker 3 (21:57):
No?
Speaker 2 (21:57):
I don't think so. I mean, Adrian brode nearly six
minute speech was pretty crazy, but I don't think that's
probably the most memorable.
Speaker 6 (22:06):
A five finger discount from one of the biggest stars
in the world is pretty hard to be Yeah.
Speaker 1 (22:10):
Well fifty three yes, go ahead.
Speaker 4 (22:12):
I was gonna say it.
Speaker 8 (22:13):
It's up there with Travolta screwing up.
Speaker 1 (22:16):
Oh yeah, I don't even know what he said, but
we're not the only ones. Fifty three percent of Americans
believe that no Oscars moment will ever top the Will
Smith Chris Rock slap from twenty twenty two. Twenty five
percent of viewers are interested in the actual Awards content,
and twenty two percent tune in for the unexpected moments.
(22:38):
The Talk of Research survey of about two thousand adults
found that forty one percent of respondents would prefer to
go to the Grammys.
Speaker 7 (22:44):
And we're weird voyeurs too, like we want to stare
at stars and see what they're wearing.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
I got no interest in any of those things. I
get the three hour Grammy performance. Most of the artists
that you don't even care.
Speaker 2 (22:54):
About to go to the Grammys if I had decent seats.
I don't want to sit in the nosebleeds for the Grammys.
Speaker 6 (22:59):
I feel like the Grammys would be more fun than
the Oscars because there's musical acts. Yeah, and I could
treat it more like a concert and less like a
just a bunch of douchebags up there telling me how
they're better than.
Speaker 1 (23:10):
Unless unless the Oscars will have a really cool performance,
like when when Robin Williams came out to sing Blame Canada.
Do you remember that? Yes, that was pretty fucking incredible.
Speaker 6 (23:20):
And Eminem also one time at the Oscars right when
he when his song was nominated.
Speaker 2 (23:25):
Oh yeah, so like Best Original.
Speaker 7 (23:26):
Like original song normally gets to play.
Speaker 2 (23:29):
Like Ariana Grande and Cynthia Rivo of Wicked. They performed this.
Speaker 1 (23:33):
Year everyone saw you'll get like a cool performance, but
mostly it's like like boring.
Speaker 6 (23:37):
And yeah, it's not really my bag at all. I
think it's for people who are more obsessed with celebrities.
Speaker 1 (23:43):
Yeah, I agree. I think the Grammys would be a
lot more fun.
Speaker 5 (23:46):
Sure, Grammys do have a little bit of a looser
I feel like feel around the show. It doesn't have
to be so buttoned up. Wasn't the Grammys where Borat
came in on like a rope and just landed right
in Eminem's lap?
Speaker 1 (23:58):
I think I was just the MTV.
Speaker 6 (23:59):
Or Yeah, back when those would have been fun to
be at like you don't know what's gonna happen.
Speaker 1 (24:07):
Yeah, because back in the day, man, remember when when
when limbizguit won and Rage against the Machine was pissed
and the basis climbed that that sky when Tommy Lee
and Kid Rock actually fought on the floor of the
MTV VMAs.
Speaker 7 (24:20):
Gosh, there are such great moments, all of those things.
Speaker 1 (24:23):
Yeah, they cut away from it, which pisses me off
because I'm thinking, like, that's what people want to see,
is Kid Rock and Tommy Lee fighting over Pamela.
Speaker 6 (24:29):
And you remember when Eminem just to bring him up
one more time, when he walked in and Hulk smashed
Carson Daily, Christina Aguilera, fred Duras just walked down the
line and just berated them all that was. That was
a coming to the table party for that guy.
Speaker 1 (24:48):
Yes, I don't do it like that anymore. Fort would
rather go to the Grammys than thirty three percent would
accept an invite to the Oscars if they I would
definitely go. I was invited invited.
Speaker 7 (24:59):
I'm just trying to figure out how I afford the
tux seed.
Speaker 1 (25:01):
And I'm taking the strongest gummy I can I can
get my hands on that.
Speaker 6 (25:05):
And I'm taking public transit to like two blocks away,
and then I need a ride.
Speaker 1 (25:09):
Yeah, yeah, because I don't want to. I don't have
I don't have anything fancy. So if I could just
hop in the back of your.
Speaker 7 (25:14):
To slip me in, yeah, if I could get a
ride with someone else.
Speaker 5 (25:18):
Is it the Oscars that Matt Stone and Trey Parker
did mushrooms and went in and dresses?
Speaker 4 (25:23):
I think so?
Speaker 1 (25:24):
I think so. Yes, it was yeah that way to
the Didn't you say they were high? They were high
on acid?
Speaker 4 (25:30):
Right?
Speaker 7 (25:30):
Mushrooms are mushroom at the other I mean they were tripping.
Speaker 1 (25:33):
They were high on something.
Speaker 7 (25:34):
Yeah, and they were like, uh, imagine being in is
for real right now?
Speaker 4 (25:41):
Yeah?
Speaker 8 (25:41):
I think they immediately regretted it, Like once they got
on the red carpet, They're like, oh, this is.
Speaker 1 (25:45):
A bad knocking. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (25:47):
Yeah, but it was hilarious for all of us.
Speaker 1 (25:49):
Though, turns into a bad trip.
Speaker 7 (25:50):
You're in a dress and Tommy Lee Jones is right there.
Speaker 1 (25:52):
Where are we?
Speaker 4 (25:53):
Right?
Speaker 1 (25:54):
That's great? This sounds like a fun day. Go to
YouTube and type just type in Trey Parker and Matt
Stone at the Oscars from years ago, and you'll see,
you'll see them dressed as ladies and they commit they're
super funny man. Yeah, and they're high. Just know that
they're high out of their minds. Oh they were high
on LSD Y.
Speaker 7 (26:14):
You were right. I mean it's all split and hairs
once your trip at balls.
Speaker 5 (26:18):
Yeah, right, in a group of people like that, where
you're surrounded by some of the biggest celebrities in the world.
I don't think it matters what drug you're on. If
you're on drugs, it can go bad or it can
be fun. And fortunately, I feel like Matt and Trey
kind of made it fun. Like when they told that
story years later, it's like, oh, that makes sense.
Speaker 1 (26:35):
I love it.
Speaker 4 (26:35):
Now.
Speaker 5 (26:36):
I'm a fan again of the Oscars. I've always been
a fan of those two.
Speaker 6 (26:39):
Because they probably took the drugs on the way and
then you're waiting in a queue of stars, so you're
they're they're they're kicking in.
Speaker 7 (26:46):
Guaranteed, those dudes are peeking on.
Speaker 6 (26:47):
The drug as they're on the carpet, which is the
hardest thing to get through.
Speaker 7 (26:52):
I can only imagine they're just cooking eggs.
Speaker 2 (26:56):
Yikes.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
Well, all right, that's uh. I think On that note,
we will I'll see you tomorrow. We'll have another Donkey
Show podcast, and we'll also have on a live show
another pair of tickets to see Jerry Seinfeld. Give me
your best Jerry Seinfeld impression?
Speaker 4 (27:08):
Marcus, what's the deal with customs?
Speaker 6 (27:12):
You go in?
Speaker 4 (27:13):
It's like they don't even want you here. I don't
want to be here either.
Speaker 1 (27:18):
It was pretty good, how about at all? All right?
So tomorrow I think at seven thirty we'll give those away.
We'll see you in my transport terminated.
Speaker 3 (27:27):
You've been listening to Tanner, Drew and Laura's Donkey Show,
heard daily at one oh five nine that brew dot com.
May God have mercy on all of our souls.
