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 4 (00:15):
What Up?
Speaker 1 (00:17):
What's happening? Thanks for checking out Tanner, Drew and Laura's
Donkey Show podcast O heard online at one O five
nine in the brew dot com our iHeartRadio app or
wherever you listen to podcast. I'm Tanner Drew's here, Laura's here.
Bus Rus Marcus is joining us court. Should be in
here in a few minutes. Yeah, we doing today on
a Wednesday, Pretty good April sixteenth. Marcus, you got your
(00:37):
taxes in I'm assuming I think we asked him that yesterday,
but we asked the question today on the air. How
much did you get back in your taxes? And if
you don't mind, you want to give us like a
rough number, or you give us the exact number. That's
cool too.
Speaker 5 (00:52):
Well, as I told you yesterday, somebody in my house
did our taxes, so I can give you a ballpark number.
But you know, giving you hard numbers is so far
away from uh from you're not really hypnology.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
It's like, I'm not qualified, Dan.
Speaker 4 (01:05):
So that question we got three thousand two hundred and
eighty seven dollars back and seventy two cents.
Speaker 1 (01:12):
Mm hmm.
Speaker 5 (01:13):
Yeah, it ain't gonna be like that. It was a
weird tax year for us because this is the first
year of Ashley basically running her own business as the
only employee right as a tattoo artist. So we ended
up owing some money, but it was minimal. I think
it was like, oh good, total, like we got back
a little bit from federal and I think total we
owed like six or seven hundred bucks to the state
(01:34):
or something like that, or maybe it was vice versa.
But it wasn't. It wasn't crippling. It wasn't something I
wanted to hear. But it's one of those things, you know,
death and taxes.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
It's that one listener who it's inevitable. Yeah, you're right,
And that one listener sent a message in today saying
that what he had, like a he had seven grand
this year. I just can't imagine.
Speaker 6 (01:52):
And what about the guy who called in and and
I felt bad because you know, he wants to believe
it so bad, but he was like, I don't pay
taxes because they don't spend it on the appropriate thing.
Speaker 4 (02:04):
Yeah, he's like I don't believe in the things they
spend them on or so he just said he doesn't
do it.
Speaker 1 (02:09):
I'm gonna say thanks, but no thanks. He started to
go ahead, Yeah, he started to rattle off some stuff
like child sex changes, like what.
Speaker 6 (02:15):
Yeah, you're like, dude, the IRS does not care.
Speaker 1 (02:18):
They are numbers and numbers alone. And I was like,
that guy's gonna it's going to catch up with them eventually,
am I Not yet? And it might even take a
little longer because of the staffing issues they've got going
on there. But paperwork always catches up with you, especially
if you owe a lot of money. If it's super small,
maybe maybe maybe you'll get away with it, but chances
are eventually it's going to catch up with you because
eventually you're gonna want to do something and you're gonna
(02:39):
have to go through the IRS, and then they're gonna
be like, oh, by the way.
Speaker 6 (02:43):
And the paper trail is so much different now, Like
you think about nineteen eighty five and you're evading your taxes. Yeah, yeah,
that's a stack so high you could get lost in it.
Now there's just an algorithm that goes through and it's
like wait, who oes wait who hasn't been checking in
and next thing, you know, here comes the buffer.
Speaker 1 (03:00):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, dude.
Speaker 5 (03:02):
It's interesting because I remember, and I don't want to
say this person's name because I don't want to out them,
but there was a person we used to work with
back in the Eugene radio days who one day came
in during tax season and told us all like, oh, yeah,
I haven't filed, and like it's been like eight years,
Like I just haven't done it. I don't care. And
and this is not a person that we would consider dumb.
This is a person that was pretty pretty intelligent person
(03:25):
just on the surface. Okay, And that's not the way
it was for them now, like they've cleaned that whole
thing up. But you could get away with that back
in the early two thousands, Like that's not that long
ago that eight years could go by and somebody doesn't
turn in a single tax return and they don't even
get a phone call. I feel like, just working a
normal job like we all have right now, you go
one or two years, they're in your shit.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
And they they don't give like leniency as much as
they used to my mom every time I had a
tax issue. You'd be like, oh, just tell him this
and they'll they'll let you off. A mom, it's not
like that anymore. Plus you were a single mother back then.
They gave you a little bit more, a little bit
more of a leash. My mom one year had some
terrible issue where she didn't pay and she talked to
some guy on the phone. She owed thousands of dollars.
(04:08):
I don't remember the number, but I remember it was
just crippling whatever the number was. And she gives her
gives her spiel to this guy, talks to you know,
talks to him and says she's a single mom, this
and that. That guy right then just cleared it all.
Speaker 6 (04:19):
Yeah, and that's a different time where it's like, okay,
well that's reasonable and just so it's just a computer.
Speaker 1 (04:24):
It doesn't work like that anymore. My tax guy says
that the IRS is not really waving things anymore. A
lot of it's just done via computer too, but a
lot of it they're just taking your money.
Speaker 2 (04:34):
Now, your sob story is not going to work.
Speaker 1 (04:37):
And my guess is, like I wonder, like, what's it
must be really bad with her just taking everything and
come bat as in finance, Yeah, they need that cash.
Speaker 6 (04:45):
Yeah, but like beef water was in here earlier, and
I'm not sure if it was on the show or off.
When he was telling us that his grandma owned a
bar and got behind in the taxes and you're paying
to keep the bar open and keep your employees going,
and so you don't pay that. He said that for
the rest of her life, till the day she died,
she still was being chased by the taxman and and
still having to cut checks all the way to the end.
(05:07):
So it's that's what frightens me about someone saying I'm
gonna take eight years off or I'm just not doing
it because one day you are gonna have to do it,
or you're never gonna all your wages are gonna be
garnished and it's gonna get bad. So I'm just I'm
desperately afraid of trying to be tougher than the government.
Speaker 1 (05:25):
Yeah, I just I just want to be square up
with them. If I'm done with it. If I messed
up with everyone else, that's fine, as long as I'm
squared up with the I R S. I saw this
funny install TikTok yesterday and it was like, you know
that meme that joke. It says, if I win the lottery,
I won't say anything, but there'll be signs. Yeah, yeah,
and he goes, there won't be any signs. You know
what I'm gonna do if I win the lottery, get
my shit taken care of. I'm gonna go. You know
(05:46):
what I'm gonna do. Wanna go to the DMV squaring
up with them, pay all my fines, Gonna pay my
my you know fees. I'm gonna get insurance. Finally. You know,
when I win the lottery, you'll know it because I'll
be following the law. That's but he says, I'll be
following more laws and I've ever had in my life.
Speaker 6 (06:02):
There's so much of little cuts at corners that you
would do because you're like, I'm gonna choose food and
I'm gonna not get the registration for my car or
whatever it is. So yeah, I like that idea. Yeah,
I'll actually be above board if I win the line.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
Just take care of your bills, all everything that you owe.
Speaker 6 (06:20):
I'm gonna get no more stickers on my door with
a warning that it's an extra of fifty dollars if
the power actually goes out.
Speaker 1 (06:26):
No more payment plans, you just get it done. I
don't feel great.
Speaker 6 (06:29):
I've always been so jealous of the people who don't
finance their life.
Speaker 1 (06:33):
You know, it's like, what do they call financial freedom?
That sounds magical, that sounds nice.
Speaker 2 (06:39):
Yeah, I was gonna say, I don't know what that
is all about.
Speaker 6 (06:42):
Like the idea that you buy your house in cash,
that's financial freedom.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
Great.
Speaker 5 (06:47):
Your credit score just doesn't matter anymore because there's a
pile of cash sitting there that covers every purchase that
you need.
Speaker 1 (06:53):
Right, be almost funny, that sounds so nice.
Speaker 6 (06:56):
You're so rich that you just let your credit go
to hell because he don't give a rat.
Speaker 4 (07:01):
You know what's so crazy about your credit score is
that I recently joined the eight hundred club, which I'm like, oh, well.
Speaker 2 (07:08):
Look at me, look at my credit score.
Speaker 4 (07:09):
But also, all that means is that I'm good at
being in debt, you know what I mean.
Speaker 2 (07:14):
It's like, all that means is that I've been in
debt for forever, but I pay my shit on time.
It's like, I don't know if that.
Speaker 1 (07:20):
Does help flex or not. It's because because you get
a discount. So funny is is my credit wasn't the greatest,
and then I bought my car, and then it's just
what straight to the top, and I owed more than
I ever had, you know, And it was so funny.
Speaker 5 (07:35):
I'll tell you when you see it, Laura, is when
you're getting ready to buy that house and you look
down and you save like a couple of points and
you realize that that's tens of thousands of dollars at
the end of the loan. That was what the first
time I ever noticed because my dad was so adamant
about building a good credit score that I actually took
out my first auto loan as a co signer as
(07:56):
he with him as a co signer. Sorry, at the
age of just just turned fourteen, like late fall, when
I turned fourteen, I had a two hundred dollars car payment,
and I got a job and I started working to
pay it off. And it's been great to have because,
like I remember when I went to buy Ashley a
wedding ring, I you know, they did the credit check
at the jeweler and they came back and they were like, congratulations, sir,
(08:18):
you've been approved for forty five thousand dollars. Today it's
like I make that a year right now. And you
just approved me to spend it all on a wedding ring.
Speaker 1 (08:28):
It was cool, but I said so quickly, it's so irresponsible.
Speaker 6 (08:32):
It's funny because you know I'm I'm credit rich, but
not rich rich. So yeah, on my credit card, I
have obnoxious caps because I have Amy and I are
both eight hundred plus credit. But the only reason where
eight hundred plus credit is because we don't look at
that line that says you can have seventy five thousand
(08:53):
dollars right now because I can't pay you back.
Speaker 1 (08:55):
Yeah, that's not My credit is gonna get eaten. It's
a it's a taunt to me. That is an advertisement,
and I ignore it. It's begging you to screw up.
I'm not get involved. Like I didn't get my first
credit card till really late in life. I just avoided
it as long as I could. I realized that was
a mistake because.
Speaker 2 (09:11):
I didn't have to build your credit.
Speaker 1 (09:12):
But I didn'tn't get any point. But I didn't have
any debt. I didn't have any debt, and every one
of my other friends had five, ten, fifteen grand in debt.
Speaker 6 (09:19):
Yeah, I'm glad I didn't have one at a more
irresponsible time in my life. You know where it's like,
well let's go to the bar. It's like I don't
have any cash. You have a Chase card or you
have this card. I at least knew that I can't
go because my debit card will be denied.
Speaker 2 (09:34):
Dude, I used to put.
Speaker 4 (09:35):
I used to go to dollar beer night and pullum
beers on my credit card. Like that's when I was like,
I got to get my finances in order.
Speaker 6 (09:44):
But I go to that night with nine dollars and
be like, okay, I can have five drinks and then
tip on the other four. Yeah, and we're out of here,
and then have mud butt all the next days. It
was natty life, of course.
Speaker 1 (09:54):
Yeah, that gives me get it gives me the shit.
Speaker 6 (09:56):
I don't know what it is that was because it
was just basically trash with bubbles in it.
Speaker 4 (10:00):
Well.
Speaker 5 (10:00):
I remember the very first credit card I ever got
was when I was very first working part time at
the radio show and I was still doing Applebee's and
I had no money for Christmas presents. So I went
and took a took a credit card out from my
bank and spent three hundred and fifty four hundred bucks
on Christmas presents for everybody, And sure enough that was
my very first lesson of hey, it doesn't go away,
(10:22):
and it also gets a lot more expensive because I
ended up paying like eighteen percent or something like that
interest on that payment.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
I didn't have the cash in my pocket.
Speaker 5 (10:29):
It's like it's it is almost like the bull running
at the red sheet in you know, like bullfighting, That's
what I'm thinking of. It's like they hang that sheet
out in front of you, like this will solve all
your problems, and then they pull it away and you
run into a fucking wall and get a concussion, You run.
Speaker 1 (10:45):
Into a real sword in your side. Yeah.
Speaker 5 (10:48):
Really predatory, and you know there's a lot of people
that don't make it out of just that. Like I
got lucky, I got some money. I was able to
come by and borrowed a little bit from my parents
and made it out, But that that easily could have
been a story where I've had busted credit and filed
for bankruptcy three times over three hundred dollars.
Speaker 4 (11:06):
That's the type of stuff too, where it's like why
aren't we learning about this in high school? Like why
are we learning calculus? We need to be learning how
to manage balance, a checkbook, manager finances, you know, I
just like I understand.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
I had a personal finance class, but it was dated,
you know, and I have a feeling a lot of
them are still dated. Yeah, we didn't have anything like that.
Speaker 6 (11:26):
You were more today, thought you were more ready for
college with advanced algebra, which I have never used in
my real practical life.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
Personal finance was a really good class.
Speaker 4 (11:35):
It's like, how do you how do you calculate APR?
You know, like what do all these things mean?
Speaker 1 (11:40):
Like that you had to learn the hard way.
Speaker 2 (11:42):
Yeah, well, there.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
Was a choice in high school.
Speaker 5 (11:45):
You could take it.
Speaker 1 (11:47):
I can't okay, sorry.
Speaker 5 (11:48):
You can take personal finance and holmech or you could
take shop an egg. That was the choice. You had
to do one or the other. In my school, I
took personal finance and home mech. I still don't know
how to do any.
Speaker 1 (11:59):
Of the shit, but I can't well either, And that
mean loaf of bread though. Yeah, a few four minutes
of this week, it will be like mad money. We've
got to start smashing smashing bugs over here at the bat. Sorry,
hitting hog sounds, can you've got him? I don't have
I don't. I don't have what he's got, but I
do have like a I have a cute goat, mad
money nothing. Yeah, anyway, anyways, so we were talking about
(12:28):
this off the air, and I wanted to bring this
up with you guys. It's so funny. You know. I
don't know, Marcus, if you saw the Blue the Blue
Origin flight with all the ladies, Gil King, Katy Perry,
and a couple of astronauts. Oh yeah, yeah, I saw it.
Speaker 5 (12:44):
What's funny about the whole thing is they're talking to
all this news was about Katy Perry going to space,
and I thought she'd been in space since left Shark.
Speaker 1 (12:52):
Well, she's pretty, she's pretty spacey. She says some really
silly things, like she'll she'll sh sit there and talk
for like three minutes and she won't really say anything. No,
it's just like I wanted I was connected to love.
We're like, what does that mean? It's very aloof doesn't
make any sense.
Speaker 4 (13:07):
And she's like, I never experienced love until the moment
we launched into space.
Speaker 1 (13:11):
But the internet is having a field day with it.
Everyone's making fun of them. The memes are great. It's
kind of like when you know the submersible exploded near
the Titanic. The memes just went went wild. This is
the same thing. And there's a clip of Jeff Bezos
like tripping and falling and he just kind of slides
down the side of the capsule, you know, and which
is amazing. Yeah, and it's and then Katy Perry when
(13:32):
they get out, they kiss the ground and she's just
very cringe you know when she speaks, but she's very pretty.
I'm just saying that when she speaks, it's like, oh geez.
Speaker 6 (13:41):
But she does that space face too, like with the
flower in her hand. It looks like somebody Perry doing
a parody on S and O.
Speaker 1 (13:47):
It feels exactly like that, like it was in the
movie Don't Look Up or something, you know, exactly yeah,
right where it's almost comical, but it's real.
Speaker 4 (13:55):
It just feels very premeditated, you know, like it feels
just and genuine.
Speaker 1 (14:01):
Yeah, and also tone deaf.
Speaker 4 (14:03):
Yeah, I mean the whole the whole thing, Katy Perry aside,
the whole thing is pretty tone right to be launching
celebrities into space and making it feel like some monumental quest.
Speaker 1 (14:13):
But the best part is that the internet jokes and
Wendy's even got in on it. You know, Wendy's their
their Twitter account has been doing this for years. They
just take the edgy route. They'll make fun of somebody
must be a comedian or somebody running that Twitter account,
because whoever it is, it's hilarious. Yeah, they're good, but
they'll troll people, and you don't normally see that from
a big corporation. I think that's what makes it so
fun because normally they'd be all worried about image, right, yeah,
(14:36):
but they're not, and I think that's working for them
because the lines are long as shit when you go
to Wendy's. It's crazy, it is. But apparently Wendy's responded
to the whole Katy Perry and Space thing. You know,
it was an all female mission, and I guess they
posted out I kissed the ground and I liked it.
Speaker 6 (14:56):
Yeah, okay, so she did kiss the dirt after her
ten minutes space, yeah.
Speaker 1 (15:01):
Yeah, and I guess the jokes just kept coming. So
I just like that they get in on it, and
even they know that she's cringe and insufferable.
Speaker 2 (15:08):
Yeah, and then what did they say? We should have
we should have left her up there or something like that.
Speaker 1 (15:13):
They say, did she release a butterfly too? Yes, I
saw she had a flower.
Speaker 4 (15:18):
The flower I think was for her daughter, whose name
is Daisy. The butterfly apparently had her set list on
it from her upcoming tour.
Speaker 1 (15:26):
Get Over Yourself tattooed a butterfly.
Speaker 2 (15:28):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (15:29):
It's a criminal, and the Twitter account went on saying,
now she knows what it's like to be in a
plastic bag floating in the wind, you know. I mean,
so those aren't great punchlines, but like, at least they're involved.
They're involved, and they're still throwing shade at sewing, shade
at Katy Perry, which is what you know because right now.
Speaker 6 (15:45):
The quote that you played on the show where she
talked about how you don't know what love is until
you launch, like we're we're all in line and this
is just you do splash mountain and you're gonna be great.
It is so disconnected beyond anything else.
Speaker 1 (16:00):
Here, I could play it for you again. Here it
is right here. Here's Katy Perry after she got out
of the capsule and spoke to the news. Yeah, that's
Jeff Bezos. Does not sound like a billion dollars. We're
having a good time. You only laugh like that if
you have a billion dollars. Yeah, he laughs like like
(16:22):
a villain, like an evil villain. Kind is I can't
believe I get to do all this. Yeah, I want
to hear in soul motion.
Speaker 4 (16:33):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (16:33):
Now I feel like I'm on the haunted mansion. He's uh.
I like the sedated crowd and slow. Yeah. I feel
like that's a crowd that knows they have to applaud
to the Yeah.
Speaker 2 (16:45):
It's but also, did you see who was in the crowd.
It's like all other celebrities. There were no no normies
in that audience.
Speaker 1 (16:52):
Anyway, here's the moment Katy Perry got out, My god,
it's just big head, big head. Jeff's alone.
Speaker 4 (17:10):
Jeff, Jeff, you know you're not the crier of the
ruler of the group.
Speaker 1 (17:18):
No, you are not.
Speaker 2 (17:20):
I'm going to tell you something right now. You are
officially an astronaut. Thank you so much. How do you feel.
Speaker 7 (17:25):
I feel super connected to love, so connected to love.
I think this experience has shown me you never know
how much love is inside of you, like how much
love you have to give and how loved you are
until the day you launch.
Speaker 1 (17:44):
None of that makes sense.
Speaker 2 (17:45):
What does that mean?
Speaker 1 (17:45):
None of that makes sense at all. You're just saying
words and then you launch. Oh god, shut up.
Speaker 6 (17:51):
Until the day you launch. It would cost we're talking
about getting out of debt. You could never finance a
drip in the penis.
Speaker 1 (17:58):
We'll never know what it's like to be loved. Guys. Yeah,
I can't afford a trip to space.
Speaker 6 (18:02):
You can think about love, but you're gonna fall just
short of actually understanding it without.
Speaker 4 (18:06):
A lot unless you have one hundred and fifty thousand
dollars deposit and about million.
Speaker 1 (18:11):
Dollars is how much the deposit is really for?
Speaker 2 (18:13):
One hundred and.
Speaker 4 (18:14):
Fifty thousand dollars was the deposit They don't we don't
know how much the actual trip was.
Speaker 2 (18:19):
But that was the down payments.
Speaker 6 (18:21):
Man, it only meant a couple of hundred dollars to
reserve your Tesla when the new models come out. I
can only imagine what the final tag for something like.
Speaker 1 (18:30):
That would be. And I Drew, I was thinking about you,
And there's a clip of on the Internet of actually
in the capsule in space in zero G and they're
like floating around and stuff, and they were just all screaming.
At once I got a Taylor Swift concert. I was like,
this is what Drew's house sounds like. Yeah, this is
the kitchen during dinner. Yeah, just screaming. But it looked
fun for them. You know, I think I.
Speaker 4 (18:49):
Would deniably it would be fun. It would be on
the fun experience.
Speaker 1 (18:52):
On this one, Like the Blue Origin one is the
only one I would go to space on because it
seems easy. You just sit there, you're you're not they're
not astronauts, all right. They just rode a capsule to
space and came down, and the facts it takes eleven minutes.
Speaker 4 (19:04):
They just sat there, went up. Yeah, it was a
ten minute trip. They landed and then just like all
got out and we're just like they didn't have to
do anything afterwards. They didn't have to reacclimate or anything
like that. They were just fine.
Speaker 7 (19:16):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (19:16):
I don't remember the astronauts who were stuck on the
space station for a year coming down kissing the ground
like that.
Speaker 4 (19:20):
Right, Yeah, they had to learn how to reuse their muscles, right.
Speaker 5 (19:25):
You know what I think's funny is we always used
to make fun of Star Wars and the Star Wars
movies for having very phallic spaceships, and as time has
gone on, our spaceships are looking real penisy. I know
you guys have probably talked about that, but that thing
was just it's just a big flying dick.
Speaker 1 (19:41):
I really didn't expect it to go that way.
Speaker 5 (19:43):
I expected, I don't know, something a little more aerodynamic,
I guess. But it's like you expect the top of
a rocket to be pointy.
Speaker 1 (19:51):
I don't know. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (19:52):
I think he fashioned it out of his own bald head.
Speaker 1 (19:55):
Well hopefully it's that part of him.
Speaker 6 (19:57):
But what about the ladies, Like why are they in
a female shaped one like the v wing Man?
Speaker 1 (20:03):
The Daily Show did a funny bit on that, and
they go, here's what since it's an all female mission,
here's what it looks like. And they just take the penis,
but they put a box around it, like a tadildo
coming in the shipping container.
Speaker 2 (20:12):
Oh yes, I like that.
Speaker 1 (20:13):
It was great, like that, that's incredible. Well but yeah,
well I'm glad that you know it.
Speaker 6 (20:19):
Even said this earlier, I would be burdened by it
both ways, Like I would want to say no because
of my own fears, and then I would want to
say yes. So that I didn't have that fomo after
everyone went and I said no.
Speaker 1 (20:30):
But this particular mission was just so cringey, you know,
even even down to the space suits because Jeff Bezos's
wife or fiance rather, who's one of the women on
the on the space flight, she designed all these all
these suits and they look like they look like they're
things from the Fantastic four flop. It's like kind of
like the Incredibles are out there. Yeah, they're they're really cheesy, But.
Speaker 2 (20:50):
I feel like that's what I would want to wear
if I was getting launched into space.
Speaker 6 (20:53):
Something sexy, a nice form fitting, yeah, because the suits
normally are pretty gross.
Speaker 2 (20:57):
Yeah yeah, And like I mean, the face is about
it's not you.
Speaker 4 (21:00):
I need it, like if I don't need help breathing
or anything like that, like put me in something hot.
Speaker 1 (21:05):
I think the last I think the last team were
just in jumpsuits, if I'm not mistaken.
Speaker 6 (21:10):
Well, I wanted to see Shatner in a form fit
or with that tight wave something for his bibs.
Speaker 1 (21:16):
Bibs and yeah, well I don't know. Just the whole
thing was a big waste of time.
Speaker 2 (21:21):
And money, money, and uh, you know, but all.
Speaker 1 (21:24):
Women's problems are solved now, you guys, because gel King
and Katie Perry went to space, we have no women issues.
We have them to think. Yeah, everything distress jeans and
it's weird.
Speaker 6 (21:33):
Jeff started off in a space suit, like when they
were all in the warm up room, he's in a
space suit, and then like a matching blue outfit. And
then when they come down he's in like his sweet
bro shirt and some distress geens, like he did a
wardrobe change at some point to look cool.
Speaker 1 (21:50):
There you gone. I could hear that again again.
Speaker 2 (21:55):
Can you put hey Katie in slow motion?
Speaker 1 (21:57):
Yeah? Sure, Oh that sounded creepy. That sounds let me
hear in real time, Katie woman. Okay, let me back
it up.
Speaker 2 (22:06):
Still creepy though, all right here it's.
Speaker 1 (22:13):
Yeah, that's more sloppy.
Speaker 6 (22:15):
Alone, Charity, I would take you some human girl to
hermone trying to not be sich a dog.
Speaker 1 (22:24):
You let me hear him laugh again.
Speaker 2 (22:32):
He is God the villain in this story, yeah, man.
Speaker 1 (22:36):
And it all started from buying a couple of books, right, So,
ladies who bought the romance novels, they're the ones who
supported this guy. Yep. They put the first tile on
the stage. Peece peanis let me talking ship. I'm saying
that you're the reason he's what You're the reason Katy
Perry's in space now is because you guys bought all
these female romance romance books from him and put Amazon
(22:58):
on the map.
Speaker 2 (22:59):
I don't think that's I don't think that. I don't
think they exclusively sold.
Speaker 1 (23:04):
That was not exclusive.
Speaker 4 (23:05):
I bet that was the best seller problem whatever. And
there you guys in your sci fi books. That's where
he got all of these ridiculous ideas.
Speaker 1 (23:13):
So they're really like coming together. It's like we're going
to fire a dick into space. There you go, done
those romance novels. I was I was dating this girl
recently who was reading one, and they get pretty graphic.
She read me just like a portion they were saying, like.
Speaker 2 (23:30):
I feel like it would make most men blush.
Speaker 1 (23:32):
Dude, it did. I don't want to say what I can.
I'm gonna turn the mics off, and I'll say, even
though this is the Donkey Show podcast show, it's just
it's really hard. I don't want to be a part
of it. Okay, I'm gonna turn the mics on. Marcus
can you hum something while I'll tell these guys what it.
Speaker 5 (23:44):
Is, sure one, two, three, I'm not humming anything because
I'll hoping to hear it.
Speaker 2 (24:00):
All right, anyway, does nothing.
Speaker 1 (24:03):
I mean it's pretty, I mean it's pretty word yeah,
but like I don't know, it's just in the context too.
It was really harsh. I don't know, it's I don't know, Mikeerson.
Speaker 5 (24:18):
Have you ever heard of any of the audio books,
because that's that's when I hear. My wife listens to
him an audiobook form and some of them are voice acting,
and it's like.
Speaker 2 (24:27):
I have a I have a friend.
Speaker 1 (24:29):
It's hard for me to take it serious.
Speaker 4 (24:31):
I have a friend who listens to them in audiobook
and in the car. But she's she's the girl who
her brain like works too fast, so she has to
listen to them on like double time, so they are
all chipmunk speed.
Speaker 2 (24:44):
Yeah, which just adds, Yeah, just adds.
Speaker 1 (24:47):
I love to hear that stuff. We can't even play
it on the Donkeyship podcast as we get flagged for
but just too much. That would be so funny to
just listen to the audio. Maybe the summer are not
terrible enough.
Speaker 4 (25:00):
Find some I can find some passages from the last
book that maybe.
Speaker 1 (25:05):
Aren't so like, well, we have to bleep a word
here and there. I can play those on actual radios.
Were ripe with passion.
Speaker 2 (25:12):
That sounds like biblical though.
Speaker 1 (25:14):
Well on the radio, Laura, find the find the material.
Speaker 2 (25:18):
Okay, I got the material. Don't you worry about that?
Speaker 1 (25:21):
Are you currently reading a smut book or I'm not? No,
I don't.
Speaker 2 (25:24):
I don't typically Dong.
Speaker 1 (25:25):
With the wind. If you've heard of it, Dong.
Speaker 2 (25:27):
With the wind, that's a good one. If it doesn't exist, drue,
maybe you could.
Speaker 1 (25:31):
I've been pen in it lately.
Speaker 4 (25:32):
See if I was hilarious to read a porno that
a dude wrote paperback. I'm sure soggy are the most
I think.
Speaker 1 (25:44):
Yeah, we can write the best. Yeah, it's like pound pound.
Speaker 4 (25:49):
I feel like it would be like it would be
like a three page book.
Speaker 1 (25:54):
I'm sure there's there's some filthy, weird she's doing me. Well,
I'm barbecuing. That's all I got so far. So I
have my pros. I had the prongs in my hand.
Speaker 6 (26:03):
I got these, I got a temperature gauge and a
ripe look in your eyes.
Speaker 2 (26:07):
And then I got distracted.
Speaker 1 (26:08):
And then I was like, you know what we're doing, Squirrel.
Speaker 5 (26:11):
I kind of feel like the men's romance novel would be,
like he walked into the kitchen and asked her gently,
can I golf with the boys?
Speaker 1 (26:20):
What you can? Yeah, that's true. Speaking that sounds like
a perfect day golf with the boys. Speaking of the
perfect day, researchers have apparently discovered what you need to
have the perfect day. There's like a formula to it.
Speaker 2 (26:34):
Uh huh. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (26:35):
Somehow I feel like it won't be very attainable. But
let's hear it.
Speaker 1 (26:39):
You gotta see your day off cold beverages. Yeah, and
with nothing in sight, Like I like, I like to
have no worries, like you know, like on a vacation,
you know what I mean. So you like, I know,
I don't have to wake up tomorrow work or the
next day or the next day.
Speaker 6 (26:54):
It's only macked on a Saturday, every Saturday of the
year and vacation, you know, because Sunday is already the
grim repertain to.
Speaker 1 (27:03):
Yeah, so I suppose maybe I could have a perfect
day during like when I'm not on vacation. But I
feel like for me, it's got to be like a vacation.
You got to have a couple of days buffer at
the end. Uh huh, yeah, because it's not just about
that day, it's about what comes after it. For me
a little bit like I'm I'm a worry ward so
I need that same. But here's here's what you know,
(27:23):
according to a study, here's what you need to have
the perfect day. Uh six hours of quality time with
the family. Six hours of quality time with the family.
Speaker 2 (27:30):
Which already blows.
Speaker 6 (27:32):
Basically you think about it like just because there's too
much going on, and like my kids aren't even off work,
off school until three o'clock am.
Speaker 1 (27:41):
A lot of times there's extracurricular activities, soccer, stuff like that.
Six hours maybe with some members, that would be ideal
if we didn't have to work eight to twelve hours
every day.
Speaker 6 (27:49):
Right as adults, And if it's a Saturday, I definitely
spend six hours with them, you know, whether I want
to or not.
Speaker 2 (27:55):
But yeah, but then go on because it's.
Speaker 1 (27:59):
Not just about them, yeaheah. Six hours of quality time
with the family, but then two hours of time with friends,
two hours with your friends with the boys or the girls. Law, Yeah,
that would be nice.
Speaker 6 (28:10):
Like when the meter starts stops running from like being
a quality family participant, whether you're the kid, the parent,
or the brother or sister, to be able to have
some time to yourself.
Speaker 1 (28:20):
And what if it was on a timer, like sorry, honey,
Gott'll go.
Speaker 6 (28:22):
Yeah exactly, but nowhere in the middle of playing a
family game. You're playing a family Sorry, I'm going to
Steve South.
Speaker 1 (28:29):
Also, what you need to have a perfect day, according
to these researchers, And by the way, this is done
at University of British Columbia. Okay, five hours of socializing,
presumably with people other than family or friends.
Speaker 2 (28:42):
Okay, so like what is that even?
Speaker 1 (28:43):
Maybe just strangers when you're going.
Speaker 5 (28:45):
To Yeah, just go down to the bus stop and
see what kind of conversations you have.
Speaker 1 (28:48):
That sounds like a great day. Five hours of that,
though I want like overkilled. I want like a minute
or two.
Speaker 6 (28:53):
Yeah, maybe beef water can do that. Kicking kicking dirt
around at a like shucks or Yeah.
Speaker 1 (28:59):
He loves talking of random people. It's annoying and anytime
you goes somewhere with him, you always just add fifteen
twenty minutes to the time. Yeah, he could spend because
he talks he.
Speaker 6 (29:06):
Could be out an O'Reilly's for two hours. Now, tell
you about these batteries. Oh yeah, the long life.
Speaker 1 (29:14):
He's like that.
Speaker 6 (29:15):
Yeah, so some people want that. I want to pick
and choose those longer conversations.
Speaker 2 (29:20):
Yeah, that would not contribute to my perfect day.
Speaker 4 (29:22):
I don't think.
Speaker 1 (29:23):
No, this is I think definitely a big one. Two
hours of exercise is what you need for a perfect day.
Speaker 6 (29:29):
Okay, Now, I will say when you do exercise, Now
that's a taller order for a lot of people to
do two hours. But when you complete your exercises, whatever
those are, you know, it's a better feeling, especially when
you get it done early and then you're like, oh,
check that box. Didn't get closer to death today for sure,
So that feels good.
Speaker 1 (29:48):
Well, I mean during the workout I almost did. Yeah great.
I don't think anyone's having fun during it. Another thing
you need for a perfect day is one hour eating
and drinking, just enjoying food, maybe just relaxing and just
with your thoughts maybe or two.
Speaker 4 (30:04):
I'm fair that you spend more time working out than
you do eating and drinking.
Speaker 6 (30:07):
It is true, but that is so true like with
I mean, because whether you're just walking. You got to
walk all the time, or you're carrying heavy boxes at work,
your workouts might look different.
Speaker 1 (30:18):
They say a six hour work day with a fifteen
minute commute is ideal.
Speaker 2 (30:21):
Yeah, six hours and fifteen.
Speaker 1 (30:23):
With a fifteen minute commute fifteen minutes is great anytime,
and anytime I get a job somewhere or I move
to a new place, I can't live more than fifteen
maybe twenty minutes from the house. If it's dope. I've
always strategically placed myself in near work. I just can't
do it. I knew this. I worked with this guy
in radio that we worked on macatam. Remember the station's
(30:45):
around four nine four nine McAdam. And his house was
way past the ballpark in Beaverton. That's a right. It
took like forty five minutes to get there, and he
loved it. He goes, I like being with my thoughts
every day.
Speaker 4 (30:56):
I mean that's fair. Like if your commute is like
your quiet time, then I guess that makes it.
Speaker 1 (31:00):
But me, man, I just want to get here. Yeah,
I'm running late half the time. I don't need a
forty five minute commute.
Speaker 6 (31:04):
And commute time is wasted time to me. That's like
you're basically warping through your life, you know, like beef
Water's got to commute hour to two hours a day
in order to get here. That's a lot when you
add it up at the end, it's a lot of
your life.
Speaker 2 (31:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (31:19):
And finally, what you need to have a perfect day,
according to researchers at University British Columbia, is one hour
of screen time, whether it's a show you're watching or
some YouTube, just one hour.
Speaker 6 (31:30):
And I try to do that. I tried, even no
matter how chaotic the day is. At some point I
want to sit down and pretend I have time, like
even though I might only be there for and maybe
it's not even an hour, but the attempt to go
wheels up. I feel like that you can at least
go to bed going okay. I kind of was normal
there for a minute.
Speaker 1 (31:48):
And the older I get, I feel like a piece
of shit if I sit longer than an hour, Yeah,
I'm just like I got to get up and move
my life.
Speaker 6 (31:54):
And my old body's like restless legs, Get up, move around,
do this, do that. It's like, oh, you're not even
letting me slow.
Speaker 1 (32:00):
So there it is. That's what you need. That sounds
like a lot, but because that all adds up to
about nineteen and a half hours if you do it all. Yeah,
how do you go to bed?
Speaker 5 (32:09):
Did this thing leave any room for hobbies in there?
Speaker 1 (32:11):
Did I just miss it?
Speaker 7 (32:13):
No?
Speaker 1 (32:13):
There was none of that, And that's a big thing
for me, Like I love playing my drums or working
with my Do.
Speaker 2 (32:17):
You feel like it's kind of crazy? The six hours
of family time, two hours of friends, and five hours
on a stranger every day, Like, come on.
Speaker 1 (32:27):
Sorry, that's six hours of family time is going to
be littled down a little bit, and you need some
me time and angers me standing in a parking lot,
striking up a conversation with a random dude. Yeah, rack
for five hours. It's insanity. You're they're gonna call the
police on it.
Speaker 5 (32:41):
Yeah, you're gonna be the guy in the town that
everybody knows, like, oh god, that's Drew. Don't go hang
out down at Staples anytime between two and seven or
else you'll never get out of there.
Speaker 1 (32:50):
It's like I'm going the long way to the car.
He's out there. Yeah, or you'll just you'll you'll loll
agag and hold exactly I'll stay in the staples all day,
like we don't want to take the elevator with somebody.
All right, Well that's it, that's it. That's it. That's
all you need to do. Not a perfect day, that's it. Yeah.
Speaker 5 (33:05):
That's the simple mention of masturbation in there. And I've
had a lot of perfect days. I'm just saying.
Speaker 1 (33:13):
Every everybody's equation looks a little bit different, all right.
He likes to jerk off. Yeah, that's the moral. That's
the moral of the whole podcast.
Speaker 6 (33:21):
If you don't take anything else away, it's the spank
tron going on in.
Speaker 1 (33:28):
I think, come on, I mean, there's a lot of
perverts out there. If that's all it takes. I'm not
a pervert, but uh yeah, well that does it for
us today, you guys. We'll see you tomorrow. By the way,
we're recording this Wednesday, April sixteenth, and we're still looking
for people to join our trash Bandits, which is coming
up Saturday on the nineteenth at Lyns Park from ten
to noon. Let's do it one of five nine brew
dot com if you want to sign up and we'll
(33:49):
see you there. Bye.
Speaker 3 (33:53):
You've been listening to Tanner Drew and Laura's Donkey Show,
heard daily at one oh five nine the brew dot com.
Speaker 1 (34:00):
May God have mercy on all of our souls.
