Send us your weird
It turns low thunder rolls. Scott Atlanta hit the road. The road's dark. Moonlight high. That squat print by the river's side. Mickey hand laughed in the breeze. UFOs and spoken trees. Gilded trash where the wild things roll.
SPEAKER_00:All the Rudders employees no odd names. Huh, so you guys just heard the new intro, and you will hear the new outro to the Gilded Trash podcast. Um Scott helped rewrite the lyrics too. So we took the original lyrics to Riding Shotgun. Um, Scott refined them because we wanted to make a spookier version for Halloween season. But I like it.
SPEAKER_03:I think Well, and not only that, we wanted to make it more personal. Yeah. Yeah. So now it's good. Now it's good. The Rudders employees do know our names. They say, hey, Bub, how you doing? How you doing, Bub? Welcome to Rudders. We got your egg row. We got you one regular pork egg row, one philly cheesesteak egg row. We got you an Italian sub with sweet peppers. We brought back pot stickers for you. I wish they would, because theirs were better than sheets. Which I mean, it's we talk about all the time. Rudders is better than sheets. I mean, that's just all there is to it. There's very little. I'm trying to think of like maybe like the chicken sub is the one thing from sheets. It's like.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, you know.
SPEAKER_03:And even I just think that's because Rudders doesn't have one. If they had one, they put those little grilled nuggets on there, bud. It's over. Game over. Rudders wins again.
SPEAKER_00:I love a good grilled chicken nugget. Yummy. Um like my shirt this week. The Exorcist. The Exorcist.
SPEAKER_03:The best, the best book, the best whole like scary book, the best scary movie. Um, but I'm I bring this up. I was I was just talking to you about this. I watched The Exorcist Three the other day, as I do every Halloween.
SPEAKER_00:Was it last night when I woke up to demons in my brain?
SPEAKER_03:No, no, no. This was the other day while I was working.
SPEAKER_00:Oh, okay.
SPEAKER_03:Um and uh I think Friday maybe even. Um but the Exorcist Three, a lot of people don't know this. So there's the Exorcist one, regular one, Linda Blair. Your mother's your mother net socks.
SPEAKER_02:Dim me. Um that one while you leave me. Why you leave me, dear me. Um that one, that exorcist.
SPEAKER_03:I love that that's how that one's described. Um so that exorcist. Well, then there's another one. It's called Exorcist 2, The Heretic. And Linda Blair's in that one too, but it's like it wasn't written by Blady. You know what I mean? Whereas the first one's based on a book by William Peter Buddy. Then the second one has nothing. That's like a Hollywood creation, you know what I mean? Because they wanted a sequel. However, there is a sequel to The Exorcist that Blady wrote in a book. Uh in the it's called Legion. The book is called Legion, and it's billed as the sequel to the sequel to The Exorcist because it involves Damian Karras, the priest. Um I'm not like gonna go through all that, but point being is it's the true sequel, and it is a stellar movie. A lot of people agree it has one of the best, has probably the best jump scare of all time. Um, and it's just a great movie. George C. Scott is in it. Um, it's just it's a psychological thrill. I honestly like it better than the ri the regular exorcist. I think it's a standalone movie, it's fantastic. But it has because it involves Damien Karis, who you find out didn't really die when he threw himself down the stairs, the demon inhabited his body, and then he's in a psych ward, the Gemini killer, and he's like the demon allows him to telepathically go into people and kill them, so the killings continue. And it's kind of kind of like the movie Fallen with Denzel Washington and John Goodman. It's the same thing where the demon can sort of like he's like a serial killer, but he's also like the demon. So he the serial killer's using the demon to like jump bodies and kill people and stuff. So it's the same kind of same kind of they might maybe even where they got that idea for a fallen from.
SPEAKER_00:I mean, it that is terrifying. It's terrifying to think about. I mean, I don't know how much I believe or not believe in that stuff, and we're gonna talk about that a little bit later. The use of the knees. Yeah, yeah. I believe enough, right? So, um, but I'm only calling up. You know, I call out my t-shirts every time. I love wearing cute t-shirts. This is a large. It's the first time since I was in probably seventh grade that I have fit into a large. And if I didn't have these things, I'd probably fit into a medium. But um, I am now able to buy t-shirts at five below, who carry a lot of cute t-shirts for like six bucks. So yay, small wins.
SPEAKER_03:I know that's I would have if I could lose probably 25, 30 pounds, I'd have probably 30 more t-shirts than I already have, but I'd lose 50 because I'd they'd be too big.
SPEAKER_00:You said you'd have access to more t-shirts than you already. You I you probably have 60 t-shirts.
SPEAKER_03:No, no, no. I have way more than that. But my point being is if I l gain 30, I'm gonna lose 50 that fit me now. So it'll be a net loss. It'll be a net loss. Yeah.
SPEAKER_00:All right. Don't worry.
SPEAKER_03:Plus, some of those are not as new. You know what I mean? They're older. So yeah.
SPEAKER_00:Oh, I need to go through your old t-shirts. I can wear them now, and those are probably the same ones that I like.
SPEAKER_03:Probably I've got a nice large Black Sabbath t-shirt in there that's been waiting for somebody to wear for years.
SPEAKER_00:Maybe me. So um purple too, I think. Speaking of shopping, oh my lanta. Like, I feel like I've been in every store that God never made this week.
SPEAKER_03:I have been.
SPEAKER_00:You have been. Um, and we'll get to that too in just a second, because that's a whole freaking technical.
SPEAKER_03:We're gonna do a public service announcement about that. Because that's some bullshit.
SPEAKER_00:Yes. Um, but I I was in spirit. Oh, yeah, right? Mm-hmm. I was in spirit Halloween this week, and I just absolutely I can't go in there because I want to leave with everything. So um I canceled my TikTok dolls because they weren't gonna get here on time. I'm going up and getting like a floating doll. You guys have seen the gun cabinet and water a what?
SPEAKER_03:Robert the doll.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, Robert, Annabelle. Um, well, Annabelle's they want$80 at spirit for Annabelle, but she's probably four feet tall. So when it goes marked down, I think I'm getting her.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah. We'll go get her November 1st, buddy. She'll be 26 bucks. Yeah.
SPEAKER_00:But I need one for our show on the 29th. No, I get that, but yeah. I'm getting a different they they have ones in the$30 range that are really, really, really cool. So um that I also stopped at Goodwill this week looking for stuff. I've been on a mission to make the event space like the best space.
SPEAKER_03:I like to refer to it as just the will.
SPEAKER_00:The will.
SPEAKER_03:Is there a bad will store where you get things that are a little fucked up? You know what I mean? Like, I mean, the good will's already a little fucked up. So imagine what the bad will would carry.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_03:Like a TV that works for a week and then shuts off.
SPEAKER_00:So um we also celebrated your birthday this past week, which was awesome, right? And you did get a new chair to go in the den. And much needed.
SPEAKER_03:Although that wasn't a birthday present. That was just a much needed. We were planning on making that purchase long like before. So don't go thinking that I'm I got a chair and a pizza oven, okay?
SPEAKER_00:You broke the surprise already. No, so I just want to call it out as ironic because we sold the Peloton, which I never used, in order to buy the chair. That was all already like what we agreed upon, right? But your actual birthday present plays in with the Peloton story. So go ahead.
SPEAKER_03:It does?
SPEAKER_00:Yeah. It's the same thing that Peloton did to us as what you're about to describe.
SPEAKER_03:Oh, right. It's the same kind of deal that they're trying to think. So I got a solo brand pizza oven. And they're wonderful. I'm not knocking it. Everything I've read about it, it's beautiful. I have a solo stove campfire pit that is amazing. I love it. I'm not knocking, this is not a knock on solo's products in any way, shape, or form. The products are great. What I could do have you do, though, is maybe read some of the comments of the reviews of the Solo Pizza Oven. Because you really need you to use it properly, you need a wooden pizza launch, like a little bamboo pizza launch. You need a pizza peel, stainless steel to be able to turn and pull the pizza out. And then you'll, I mean, you don't have to have thermal gloves. I already have that, or an infrared thermometer. You don't have to have those things, but they are nice to have. Here's my question, though. You do sort of need the pizza peel in the thing, and it's a very unique size, 13 inches. Whereas, say, the ninja is 14, so their peels are a little bit bigger. So you can't just replace it with any old thing. Well, why not, when you have a unique size, why not include those products that you know that they need to operate the thing that they're getting? Why not include those in the thing? You're spending$500 on a freaking pizza oven. What's another$50,$75 to include everything that you need? Like clearly, you're paying you're already paying for a premium product. People that are buying solo stuff, it's a premium product because you can buy other ones, knockoff ones, for a lot less. Name brand stuff. So it's a very it's a high-end product. Why not? And usually with a high-end product, your biggest focus is like uh like the quality of the product and then customer satisfaction. That's usually what sets you part apart when you're like a higher level thing.
SPEAKER_00:And they just uh they're ignoring their comments, right?
SPEAKER_03:Because every comment you read in the reviews is like, I love this thing, it's the best thing ever. I just wish that the first time that I had known that I needed these things. And what like and boom, you went from all four-star reviews to five-star reviews just by doing that. And like I said, you're already paying for a premium product, people aren't gonna care about another couple bucks to throw everything that you need in there.
SPEAKER_00:Right, exactly. And like the thing of it is that's why I brought up the Peloton because Peloton did the exact same thing. Exactly. Their standard base model comes with a seat that literally hurts your ass. Like, I spent the first week crying. I couldn't even use the Peloton. So then I replaced it with a seat upgrade. But at that point, I was just over it. Like, fuck off. Seriously. I was so nervous.
SPEAKER_03:And the pedal thing, it's like very hard to find. Like, you can't do anything. It's like all gotta be ordered through them. It's a pain in the butthole.
unknown:Right.
SPEAKER_00:So bye-bye, Peloton. Yeah, we paid for it, but we resold it, and you won't get a subscription fee from it. You ain't gonna be able to do it.
SPEAKER_03:Well, and then that on top of that, too, then it's another 38 bucks a month or whatever it is to get the family pass. And it's just I'm getting way more use out of my recliner. Let's put it.
SPEAKER_00:Well, and that I mean, and it's not like we're totally dormant. We do activities, they're just not.
SPEAKER_03:Oh, yeah, I just don't care for the peloton. Yeah, I don't care for the peloton. I'm not a big biker anyway, but right, right. Although I do like a good bike, but a bike you go places, Bub.
SPEAKER_00:So what mic did you do on your birth? Sorry, what mic did you do on your birthday?
SPEAKER_03:Junior Brewing.
SPEAKER_00:Oh, I do that so, oh, I'm glad you said that because I totally forgot. I am on the ever and never ending, ever and never ending search for the best bloody Mary. You can, I don't care if you put a whole charcuterie board on top of it as the garnish, right? That's not what does it for me.
SPEAKER_03:What does it for me is the flavor of the drink, because I'm trying to get my veggies in and my a crab leg, two shrimps, bacon, olives, pickles, celery sticks, carrots.
SPEAKER_00:That's all fun.
SPEAKER_03:Buckwheat pretzels and a$2 bill.
SPEAKER_00:Right, exactly. Like that's all well and good, but if the flavor of the drink sucks, right? So I love the bartender a Juniata Brewing. He's so nice, but um, he made me the best best, hands down, best bloody Mary.
SPEAKER_03:Even better than the one you had the day be two before that that you said was excellent. Where was that at?
SPEAKER_00:So yeah, so at um Westmont, what's it called? Westwood Grill.
SPEAKER_03:Oh, Westwood Barn Grill or whatever.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, shout out today. Happy 50th birthday. So we were out there for day's birthday, and what are you doing?
SPEAKER_02:Making a face.
SPEAKER_00:Okay. So we were out there for day's birthday, and my girl Kelly did make me a damn good bloody Mary. It is a very close second.
SPEAKER_03:However, the one from Juniata, it's like I've seen him sprinkling Tejine, and he was doing some extra things that I don't usually see people do. I mean, I know the usual repertoire, you know what I mean. The worst is the old bay, the game. I don't usually see him put Tejine in it.
SPEAKER_00:Well, and their base is Zing Zang's, which is the best Bloody Mary mix on the market.
SPEAKER_03:And he he also uh what else did he hit it with that I was like a little some fresh lime juice?
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_03:It was just good, yeah.
SPEAKER_00:And so to the girl, the college girl, the young'un, who returned her Bloody Mary to the bartender the other week at Junietta, you need some wisdom, honey. You need to have a couple years working a full-time job, smoke a pack of cigarettes a day, get some real life experience before you decide whether a Bloody Mary is good or not, because that is a fucking grown-up drink. Solemn saying.
SPEAKER_03:Yep. He said that a college girl returned it after you told him it was the best one. It was delicious. She probably didn't know it was tomato juice. She probably thought it was something else. Not everybody's ready for tomato juice.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah. Like when I like Bloody Mary is like my favorite breakfast.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, it's a very good thing. Well, it's a good drink just in general.
SPEAKER_00:I mean, um, but we found out that the host of that mic up at Junietta, Kevin, has an oddities museum. That is like right up our alley.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, we're definitely gonna check that out because that's very cool. There's a lot of you meet so many interesting characters, especially at a mixed mic. You know what I mean? Because not everybody's into comedy, but they're into cool stuff. This is a perfect example. And I mean, Kevin does do comedy, but that's not like his forte.
SPEAKER_00:Right. He does it all comedy, music, all of it. And that's what I love about these people in central Pennsylvania, up and around like state college area, Altoona, is that they're all in they're into it all, like you said. They have musical backgrounds, they have theater backgrounds, they have stage performance, they have writing, they have comedy, and then they have that other thing, which is we're all weird and probably on the spectrum. And so, like, there's that, like, it's just a good group of people.
SPEAKER_03:They like UFOs, they like paranormal stuff, they like, you know what I mean? They're all into weird things. Weird, weird, we is that weird or what?
SPEAKER_00:And so then we like so many adventures this week. I feel like we were touching grass forever. So um when we got back from that show. So when we got back from that show, um, there was a surprise for your birthday in the refrigerator from the parentals.
SPEAKER_03:Ooh, and let's talk about let's spend the next 45 minutes talking about this because it's the greatest thing that is ever in the cold waters of the Norwegian icy Atlantic. They raise salmon on Faroe Island or Faroe Island. I don't even know if it's Faroe or Faro. Um F-A-R-O-E. But it's also Nor Norwegian, so who knows how they say they might say it's Schlenklen.
SPEAKER_05:Schlenklin.
SPEAKER_03:Um They uh no, but so it's these fair and we've had good salmon. I've had, you know, we get all the all the we try different kinds of salmon. We sometimes we buy just your regular, like regular bullshit, you know, Atlantic regular salmon. Sometimes we buy like a little fancier stuff from like the Northwest, or we bought it from like Alaskan sockeye or whatever the hell it is. You know what I mean? We've had different salmons. Yeah. And I'm not saying we haven't had good ones. We've had some that are excellent. But this salmon, this pharaoh, pharaoh, pharo, we don't know how to say it, island, this raised in the cold waters of the North Atlantic. This, it's known, it's renowned the world, it's renowned the world abound for having a very rich fatty marbling, which then makes the salmon and these layers, you could see it. We're gonna put up a picture here of it pre-cook. And then I smoked it with my house rub, which is salt, pepper, garlic powder, paprika, brown sugar.
SPEAKER_00:Um homemade brown sugar at that.
SPEAKER_03:Homemade brown sugar. I made the molasses myself. I ground out the sugar. Um, no. No, but I did mix it up because I when you mix up your own brown sugar, it gives it a little more molassy, molassy flavor. Caramely, yeah, like more molassy. More molassy. It needs to be just a little bit more. What's the word I'm looking for? Molassy. These gingerbread cookies are good, but I like it a little more molassy. I'm gonna say that when we go to molassy. These cookies aren't molassy enough. Um but no, it was uh unbelievable. And then I smoked it and the rub, and it was just it was one of the good most glorious experiences I've ever had eating salmon.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah. And I don't talk about food pornographically like you do. So the only thing that I can say is this day three, I'm still eating it, and um, it's I I eat a lot of chicken and fish to begin with. Um, but I could eat this probably every day. Like it's just so cold.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, I would like to cold smoke it so we can.
unknown:What?
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, oh that would be so I don't even want to talk about it anymore because it would be that good. But then they also bought me a big old big old fat brisket. So I got they bought me a couple pounds of salmon and a big old fat brisket. What's that tell you when people give you that for your birthday? They go, look, this guy just needs a brisket. Get him a brisket. He'll understand. He needs more brisket in his life.
SPEAKER_00:Our son-in-law's the meat man.
SPEAKER_03:No, but I mean I'm happy with it. If you if you if you know anything about me, please give me food for my birthday.
unknown:Please.
SPEAKER_00:Or any holiday. Any day that we can't.
SPEAKER_03:Just give me food, generally, yeah. I'll take it. I'll take it.
SPEAKER_00:Yes, yes. And um, my speaking of food, my jars came for the sourdough starters.
SPEAKER_03:So I'm looking forward to that.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, I think I need you to get on that.
SPEAKER_03:I need you to do whatever you need to do to get going.
SPEAKER_00:No, I know, but like you know me, I like to have everything, I'm precise. So um the only thing that I do not have right now is a warmer. And I talked to Chappie. Our kitchen's not warm enough. The radiator's not gonna do it.
SPEAKER_03:Although I you're judging it on kitchen pre-windows. I don't think it's gonna be that cold in there this year.
SPEAKER_00:Touche, however, we'll see. I gave him the condition. I told him there's a brand new window above that radiator.
SPEAKER_03:And above the biggest one's the one above the kitchen. I mean the sink, because that one allowed so much cool air in. You could feel it. It would just blow in like a like a thing. I don't even know what thing. It blew in there, like a windmill.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, like it was coming in to haunt us or something. I had to do that.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, it always was it was whirling.
SPEAKER_00:You'd be I mean, that's the whole alley behind our house, though. It sounds like we're so close to the river, it sounds like a wind tunnel back there all fall. It's like haunting. It feels like we live in like Sherwood Forest or something, and it's like we're in like our town. It's so weird.
SPEAKER_03:The windy city, Johnstown is I always say this all the time that Chicago's a windy city, but Johnstown's Pennsylvania's windy city. Because it's like it's just a wind tunnel, dude. It just a wind tunnel. It's a wind tunnel. Um, but yeah, no, I I um I am very excited for the sour. Well, because A, going back to the pizza oven, we're gonna be eating sourdough crust pizza, kids. Sourdough crust pizza. I can't stress that enough. If you have good calories, you'll be fine.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, and I love pizza. That's one of the few bread products that I still love to eat. And I'll tell you what, like, I'm looking forward to a good sourdough crust.
SPEAKER_03:Well, let me tell you what else I'm looking forward to. Pretzels, you mentioned you let me all the things you were talking about yesterday. Pretzels, uh, pizzas, pretzels, what else was there? I'm just excited about this season. Bagels!
SPEAKER_05:Yeah.
SPEAKER_03:Bagels, pretzels, pizzas, crackers, crackers. I'm not as interested in crackers. I would be interested in woven bread, though.
SPEAKER_00:I can do that.
SPEAKER_03:I'm gonna learn how to do all the boring and I'm talking about where it's like it looks like they looped it together or something with two different kinds. Like one's like a rye and one's a like a mar a marble rye. There you have it. You know what I'm talking about.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah. So what would be really awesome is if I can do pumper nickel, you know, that's my thing.
SPEAKER_03:And then try and make make the old school Ruby style. Ruby style. The old school Ruby Tuesday style croutons. Which I don't know if anybody out there like when Ruby Tuesday was in its prime and that salad bar was hitting, oh ho ho, ho, with them croutons. They hit it with some garlic salt. Because I worked at Ruby Tuesday and they'd come at the pumpernickel, they'd cut up the pumper nickel, throw in the deep fryer, and then they hit it with garlic salt. Like Jason. That's how they put the garlic powder, and they just, oh, you get into a little, oh, I'm getting excited thinking about them. Those are the best croutons. I used to eat handfuls of them there. They'd be like, we need a new batch of croutons. I'd be like, ah, they must be getting them. Meanwhile, you're sticking them in my pockets.
SPEAKER_00:Oh my God. I do love a good salad bar though. Oh, speaking of salad bar, I have so many things that like obviously we did a lot this week. So everything we're talking about is just like things that I want to talk about this week that's not heavy. We did two heavy episodes. Let's keep it light. So I've been getting really positive reviews on my haircut. I absolutely love my hair. It's I love it when it's like this. It suits my face, I think, but I then I'll go through moments where I'll grow it out and then I'm mad because, you know, whatever. This is the healthiest, right? My hair is naturally curly. There is only a few people who can cut my hair correctly. And Linda Atwood at Elle Salon and Spa in Wimber. I love you. Thank you. You brought me back to life. Yes. But the reason I say that, the reason I say that is because they're located. Oh, wait. So first let me finish about L too, because L is a very adorable salon and spa in Wimber. Uh they have a nail tech, they're getting uh eyelash tech this week, or they're in the process of. Um they do hair, they do the things, they have um an outdoor pizza, but no, I'm kidding. No, they don't. But we'll get there. So um they have makeup tattoo artists, um, they have everything, right? Estheticians coming. Love the vibe is so adorable. We met the owner when she was our co-celebrity judge at the karaoke contest.
SPEAKER_03:Um talked about that last week. Yep.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah. So Annie is the person, she has a salon, Linda has a chair there, and Linda is hands down one of the best stylists in the Johnstown Greater area. So but so thank you, Linda. I love my hair. I didn't get to wear it Friday night because I had a hat on. We'll get there. But she brought me in the out the back way, which leads right into Bella's. And I didn't know that Bella's in Wimber has a buffet from like 11 to 1 or 11:30 to 1.
SPEAKER_03:Like a pizza buffet.
SPEAKER_00:They have pizza, they have garlic knots, they have salad, they have a little bit of pasta, and it's$9.99.
SPEAKER_04:Hoogie? Slices of hoogie.
SPEAKER_00:I don't know, but we're gonna have to. So when I get my hair done, the next yeah, next time I get my hair done. Yeah, we're gonna do a lunch date first and then, or yeah, we'll do something. But yeah, so I'm excited about that.
SPEAKER_03:Well, I think we can go through the buffet. I'll eat a couple plates with you, you can leave, go get your hair done, and I'll continue to enjoy the buffet.
SPEAKER_00:There you go. Um speaking of food still, because we're on that train. Uh, we also tried the Arby's steak nuggies this week.
SPEAKER_03:And you know what I have to say about these? Well, the first off, it's not steak. I wish it was juicy, delicious, like little chunks of steak, but it's not, it's a brisket. Or a roast very similar to that. And it tastes like brisket because it's smoked. It's smoked in a brisket style of smoking, even though it may not be exactly cut, although I suspect that it is based on the brisket. It would be better if it had the steak flavor, don't you agree? Like, I mean, I liked them. I'm not knocking them. They're good and they're a nice alternative to the other things that you can get at fast food restaurants. But when you call something a steak nugget, it brings the visions in my mind. First off, when I was in school, and we had steak nuggets like once a month, and they were like little hamburger bites, but they were seasoned like steak. They were delicious. We also had steak nuggets that were breaded.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah.
SPEAKER_03:And that's for that's what Papa's trying to find is those little breaded steak nuggets. Oh, dear Lord Jesus. Um but back to the Arby steak nuggets. Good overall scale one to five. I've given them like a three and a half because they're like they're good. I'm sure if they were done properly, cooked by like someone like me and not some fucking moron schmoron that works at Arby's, um, I'm sure they would be delicious. That's my argument, you know, that I make everywhere I go. If you could just turn me loose in a KFC or a McDonald's or a Burger King, anything, you're gonna get the bet I could take the exact and not use anything different than what they do and just make the best version, like what you see on TV. You know what I mean?
SPEAKER_00:That sounds like a good, fun game show.
SPEAKER_03:I no, I think it would be. We've talked about this. It would be a great game show.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah.
SPEAKER_03:And just be like, we've also talked about ones where I surprise work at fast food restaurants. Because I'm just a great kitchen worker. I'm just a great kitchen worker, and I would school all these kids, and I don't even need to know how to do it. I know how to do it. I promise you. No one needs to tell me how to do it, do it. I'll I'll figure it out.
SPEAKER_00:So it's funny that you say that because that remember, that all stemmed from that KFC incident where it took us like hours to get our food. And I was like, we should just we're both like you're a better kitchen manager, but I can also run a kitchen. So I was like, we should just jump behind the line and start working. Like, what what would they do? Right. I've I'm trained, I was trained at Hardy's when they were still frying chicken, like selling fried chicken. So like I knew the process, right? Like I was just about to jump behind the line and start working.
SPEAKER_03:No. No. This what transpired at that KFC was a car. It was, I don't even want to talk about it. It was one of the most horrifying, traumatizing things that's ever happened to me. And I still think about it every time. I I don't eat chicken without thinking about it. I don't think I'm I mean, I nearly got arrested at a KFC that night. I called the police on KFC for stealing my money. That's how fucking pissed I was. That's how far I took this. It was like the biggest Karen moment of all time. And I went hard in the paint, boy. I went hard. I called the cops on KFC. I was like, they stole my money. They stole and they did steal my money, those cock flicking sons of bitches. I had to call corporate to get it straightened out.
SPEAKER_00:But let's be honest, it wasn't like we just bought like two$7 meals. First of all, KFC is a little bit expensive, but we had like$56 worth of food because we're feeding us and the parents.
SPEAKER_03:We had like one bucket.
SPEAKER_00:No, we had a bucket for us and a bucket for skeeps.
SPEAKER_03:I don't know.
SPEAKER_00:But even so, that's two buckets of chicken at like what, four o'clock on a Saturday. It shouldn't have been that hard or taken that long.
SPEAKER_03:It was that KFC up there is the worst KFC you'll ever go to. Don't ever go to the Johnstown KFC. I'm telling you right now, they suck ball sack. All KFCs suck ball sack, but this one is the worst of the worst of the worst of the worst, worst, worst, worst, worst. I guarantee you they rank in the very bottom of all KFCs.
SPEAKER_00:I think it's because franchise. Well, they're like aren't KFCs like franchise, though?
SPEAKER_03:They're not like super they're not like McDonald's or Burger King or other. They're young brands, and that's who owns all of them. Well, Taco Bell, KFC, and Pizza Hut are all like that. You can't do you know you don't get franchises of those. They suck. They do suck. They do suck. They should be focused on that. Johnstown KFC. Do better, do better, do better. I'd call out a name, but I'm not going to because I'm not that ignorant. But if they get rid of him, they'll fix the fucking cover to fucking thank.
SPEAKER_00:Well, I don't think it's him alone.
SPEAKER_03:Oh, he's got a large part to do with it. He's like the head honcho. What's that telling you? Well, you told him that night, though. You told him that night. We're not going there. We're not gonna. Anyway.
SPEAKER_00:We're not going to be there. Yeah, I I don't remember. I'm not far enough to do that.
SPEAKER_03:That was the greatest moment of all time. She said you didn't, she said you didn't graduate high school. Who trusted you to fucking run a KFC, you dumb fuck?
SPEAKER_00:Did I say that?
SPEAKER_03:I mean Yeah, that's exactly you didn't there. I added the cussing, but you said you didn't even graduate high school. Who trusted you to run a KFC? And that was the greatest.
SPEAKER_00:All his employees, right, at that moment were like, yeah, that's not I didn't think it I didn't think about it from that aspect. Um and like I I grew up with a kid, so I do kind of feel bad after that. You shouldn't have said that.
SPEAKER_03:Don't say that, don't say that. Cut that out. I don't want him to be identifiable.
SPEAKER_00:I don't even think he works there anymore.
SPEAKER_03:But regardless, he does, trust me. He remembers me too, because now he's super nice. Scott, here you can here you go, Scott, here's your KFC. Actually, it's always the gay guy that waits on me now, but I see him back there and he knew he knows. He knows you don't forget the guy that said those, you don't forget that. It was a two-hour long ordeal. You don't forget that guy. Of me yelling at him.
SPEAKER_00:Ah, it just like I'm only saying it's embarrassing because first world problems, right? Like, we it was just a long day for us, and we were doing shit and trying to get shit done.
SPEAKER_03:And if it was a first world problem, it would have been at Popeye's. This is KFC. This is real problems.
unknown:Stop it.
SPEAKER_00:We didn't have to go down to Maryland the last two weeks. I know that fucking much. That's all I'm saying on that. I've done enough posts on that this week. Um, what else did I want to talk about? There were so many things because I said we were gonna come back to oh hyperbole. I've been batting around doing a TikTok post on this, but like just the like, because you said about demons earlier. Like, I am so sick of people being called demons. I feel like we're about to get back into that witch hun thing where like they like just said everybody was a demon and everybody was a rip.
SPEAKER_03:And this is what people have said. If you got one side saying that one side's Nazis and the other side calling the other side evil and demons, what do you think's gonna happen? That's why uh like what do you think's gonna happen?
SPEAKER_00:Right, exactly, exactly.
SPEAKER_03:You get shit. Like it goes back to it's hyperbole and it comes from everywhere. It's the media, it's both sides, it's not that, it's just the it's the thing at work, the thing, the man. It's the man.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, it is. You're exactly right. And um, like I said, I want to keep it late this week. So um that's all I really wanted to say on that, is just because you said demons earlier, and I was like, oh demons. I think I wanted to talk about demons.
SPEAKER_03:Well, there's there's a lot of demon talk right now, and let's let's be real. I mean, this is the most that demons have gotten talked about in a while. Um, I'm fully I mean, me personally, I'm a goblin fan. Um, but demons have made quite the comeback. People are seeing demons have been, people are saying they see demons at Beyoncé's a demon. Uh, they say um, you know, there has been they talk they haven't talked about this much about demons since the Bible. Since Jesus' time.
SPEAKER_00:Well, the latest demon on the scene is Bad Bunny.
SPEAKER_03:Oh, he's terrible. He's a demon. He's a little demon. He's a little screaming demon.
SPEAKER_00:It's it's exhausting at this point. That's not like right where I'm at in the center of things, right? Because I don't subscribe to the far side of anything. Maybe the P-H-A-R-C-Y-D-E, far side, but or whatever that was, that old comic book. But like, I yeah, extremism just it drives me insane when even people, because I try to put myself in check on this. Like, you know, I obsess, right? So I'll bomb something. If I figure something out that I like or want to do, that'll be my obsession for like a month, two months, and then I'll drop it. That's just my personality. It's the way I roll, it's the way my creativity rolls. But um people who are and then stay obsessed and make it their personality, that's a little scary for me.
SPEAKER_03:It it makes me wonder where they are, like mentally inside of their if you care that much about anything, I think that some like that's probably not healthy for anything. It doesn't matter what it is, like outside of like your family. But even that people can take too far. But like I'm just saying in general, like if you're worried like obsessed with anything really, I mean, I'm way too AT ADHD to be obsessed with anything. Like, my obsessions go like I mean, other than food, which you gotta eat, right? I mean, that's not going nowhere. Right. But I'm saying, like, anything, like I get over it quick. Like, I'll be sorry, my leg got caught on my pants. I was fiddling with my pants. I didn't have a belt on. And I got the glance.
SPEAKER_00:Oh my god, I love it. So let's talk about that because that was a fun.
SPEAKER_03:That show was probably one of the funnest shows that I've ever been a part of. We're talking about the Halloween show at the comedy farm. Freddie Krueger was there, Jason Boorhees was there, my cousin Troy was there. Um he everybody was really there. They was coming up there, they had so many people in attendance. I think I seen a gopher at one point, someone had a sheep, people was bringing in, they had all sorts of things that they they they came to.
SPEAKER_01:I I think I seen the head of the Altuna Pizza Review there. I think I seen, but they all come out to see Troy because you know Troy brings it, don't he?
SPEAKER_02:Yeah. He does. He does.
SPEAKER_04:Oh my God.
SPEAKER_03:No, but that was fun. It was the first time that I ever performed in character. Like, I wasn't just myself in this act. I was Troy, of course, obviously. I'll let you guys in on a little podcast secret here. You guys probably don't know that only our Patreon members know that. I'm kidding. We don't have any Patreon members. I'm Troy.
SPEAKER_02:Believe it or not, all I do is all I do is this. And I'm just, it flips right in there. You can't even stop it.
SPEAKER_00:But um If it fucking gets stuck, I'm gonna be so mad. Like I'm not dating Troy for the rest of my life. Get out.
SPEAKER_03:But um, but no, but I am Troy, and I did character, I did the whole, well, not the whole set, but I did the whole first part of the set except for the last joke, essentially, as Troy. Um, and the reason I did that is because honestly, when I was sitting here going over my jokes, they were just funnier to me in my like coming out as Troy. Like they just sounded funnier because it's just such a ridiculous voice. And then when you mix in sort of things like the way he says stuff like Italian dressing, you know what I mean? Like, it's just different and it makes people like it better. I don't know. But it just it worked, and it worked. It took the crowd a minute to catch on, but once they did, I think they really liked Troy. And then I became Scott at the end, and that murdered, and it was just a lot of fun. But forget about how I did. The whole show from top to bottom was absolutely fantastic. It's probably the best paced, the best like it had no lulls. I say this, like almost every show that we've been to has always had lulls, even in a like a even if you go to see a headliner, like you know, there's lulls like in an hour and 20-minute performance, there's gonna be lulls, even if it's one performer or many. And this just didn't hit that. It just it had a nice uh rhythm to it. Uh, everybody was funny, nobody did 47 minutes.
SPEAKER_00:Um, there was pizza in the back.
SPEAKER_03:When do you get pizza? Come on now.
SPEAKER_00:Um Thank you, Papa Scott. Not you, Scott. Papa Scott Papa Tracksuit, Scott. I can't say it. Papa Track suit.
SPEAKER_03:Right. He did when he kind of had a little bit of a running gag about buying being being older than everybody else and buying him pizza. And then he really bought pizza, which I mean, I felt I felt that. I mean, food is by love language.
SPEAKER_00:Um you'll call him dad for free pizza, won't you?
SPEAKER_03:I'll say anything for free pizza. Um but yeah, no, seriously. I mean, yeah, no, it was it was just awesome. The crowd was great. It was a great crowd. They were laughing. They weren't other than that one guy who I knew who was a little bit of a heckler. He doesn't do it as it come from it's not a malicious thing. He's just a drunken fucking fool.
SPEAKER_00:But shout out to Ronnie Fleming because he masterfully.
SPEAKER_03:It was one of the it was one of the yeah, it was one of the best heckler handlings that I've seen. And he had him up on the stage for God's sake. Like he turned it into this whole other thing. And I'm sure, and I mean, obviously, like Ronnie probably wanted to do his material more than deal with this ding bat. But he did it so well that the crowd just that they didn't really even want to hear jokes after that because it went on for so long. It was just like that was the that was the ending was him handling that.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, but it was great. I mean, Ronnie is funny, right? He's a he's a great comic, but I I mean, just seriously, hands down, the best handling of a heckler I've ever seen. And I've seen professionals do it.
SPEAKER_03:Well, people responded to it, and that's why, but that's why it was good because they they he made it part of the thing. It didn't, and it wasn't against that guy. It wasn't like he was like mean to that guy or anything like that. He did he did it in such a cool way that it was just it was a lot of fun. When he sat down on the stool and started taking a bite of the pizza, I lost it because it was just so funny. Like, I mean, genius, genius, genius, genius. It was great, it was great. Um but yeah, just the whole show. I mean, we talk about it all the time, but I love the comedy farm. I love Ridge, I love Ridge's the cow was hilarious. Uh Ridge, Scott, Tracksuit Scott, Eddie, all those guys.
SPEAKER_00:Everybody, like, it was that I've seen from like every actor involved. Like, it was a well-run show. The every all the little Easter eggs were really fun. Um, I'm gonna clip an Easter egg in here that goes with Freddie Krueger. I mean, it was just so much fun.
SPEAKER_03:And Eddie's Freddie Kruger, I mean, Eddie bought all in on that thing. Let's just say he went, he became Freddie Krueger. Like, for that, like, and he was so funny, and he like he embodied Freddy Kruger, which is what's great about it because of the way that he likes his style, the jokes, the voice. Yeah, it was like it was just a total package. He really just did a phenomenal job. And but I and I can't stress this enough. I think too, part of it is like having a sort of a themed show helps, I think, when you you're like, not that everybody's talking about the same things because we were doing all kinds of stuff, but everybody like sort of having that common theme to drive like the story, I guess. It's a lot of fun. It was really good.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, and it like just it's I mean, it flowed, it just flowed, it was seamless from comic to comic, it was seamless, just not individual sets. Like the whole thing was so fun, the crowd was fantastic. Um, we met Alyssa Malvoyson, um, who has a gorgeous voice. I didn't get to catch her set at Junietta Brewing the first time we were there. So I'd like to hear more of her music. I love her stylings. Um, so I'm gonna clip in a little the whatever video I put together to insert here is going to include a little bit of the show, a little bit of the Easter egging in the show, and Alyssa, um, a little bit of her song. So uh Yeah, she opened the show for us.
SPEAKER_03:That was another thing, is we had a musician kind of come out and warm things up a little bit.
SPEAKER_01:How the wings come out of your time with the ear for whatever reason. It's a lot like Christmas. They put out decorations and mics and stuff, but it's a lot more depth than candies than Jesus. Um that scares me. But I learned from the history of how the wings was that the the witches helped the Puritan through the winter by guessing candy corn. Yeah. You got and then then what happened is they killed all the witches because candy corn stuff.
SPEAKER_03:That was good. I also want to reiterate again, there was pizza back in the green room. That was it was a fantastic show. And I think that probably I'd have said that if there was pizza back there, I'd have probably said that about any show. Uh no, but this was no, and all kidding aside, this was a lot of fun. Great crowd, great when the audience and the comics have as much fun as each other, that's the best. That's the best show.
SPEAKER_00:Absolutely. Absolutely. And what I love now is that you guys are more established and people know you guys all more. Is I just like to stand back on the fringe after the shows and watch the fans come up to you because that's really fun.
SPEAKER_03:Fanshmans. We had one, and it was Alyssa's Bob.
SPEAKER_00:Collectively, I mean across all the shows. I watched technical difficulties. Um what else do we want to do?
SPEAKER_03:No, we were just wrapping up the show. That was great. But um, yeah, no, we have let's talk a little bit about what we, you know, are we been spending a lot of time, of course, preparing our event room, and we are getting dangerously close to it being completed. Um, just a few more finishing touches, some things got to come in the mail, um, and just a few other little things. The tile thing that'll be wrapped up as soon as we get that tool and can cut them things out. That's easy peasy. That's no big deal. That'll take 10 minutes of work. Um, I'm excited about the decorations. I'm excited about getting the people out here. I'm excited. It's gonna be wild having a show right here, a comedy club in your house. What? Very few people can understand this. Brandon Cantu is not one of them. He doesn't understand. Um, but I'm no, but in all seriousness, like, I mean, how many people have a comedy club? Right, right, your own, right in your thing. And I mean, it's not gonna be just that, but we created an event space and we can watch football games, we can have Thanksgiving dinner. Are you kidding me? With stuffing and cranberry relish, mashed potatoes.
SPEAKER_00:Don't get me started. Don't push it. I'm already I'm already seeing Christmas commercials. Don't push it. I can I do that.
SPEAKER_03:Well, Thanksgiving's before that. We can push Thanksgiving. I mean, my gosh, Christmas is a ways off, but we're only a month away from Thanksgiving.
SPEAKER_00:I would love to enjoy Halloween first.
SPEAKER_03:Oh, we're going to. Halloween will be by the time Halloween comes around, I'll be ready for Groundhog Day.
SPEAKER_00:Speaking of Christmas being pushed on us already. Uh can't have the show without recognizing that one of my favorite mother figures passed away this week, Miss Dying.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, let's talk about that for a minute because she's been sick since the family's down. We know that. Craig T totos. No, I'm kidding. That's not fun to make fun of it too soon.
SPEAKER_00:It's not. But that literally, I watched that yesterday morning when I found out because um that is my go-to movie with her.
SPEAKER_03:What's crazy though is for the first in all of her movies, she's always dying. So I feel like Hollywood's been getting ready. Like, this is probably one of the easier celebrity deaths I've dealt with. Not as if I care, but I'm just saying, like, they've been preparing us for this because like in every movie, she's like getting ready to go, and everybody they've been like, Diane Keaton's getting ready to they probably had her on death pools, and then she was probably higher on the list than what we think.
SPEAKER_00:I didn't think she was. Um, but yeah, how old was she?
SPEAKER_03:Was she in like her early 80s?
SPEAKER_00:She's the same age as my dad, I thought, who would be 75 this year.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, I thought she might have been a little older. But uh Yeah, okay. Hold on, I'll tell you real quick. Give me one second. I wanna know now. Because I'm curious. I'm curious because let's see, Diane Keaton. The age always has a big impact. She was a few years older than your dad. She's 79.
SPEAKER_07:Okay.
SPEAKER_03:She was born in 46, so. Yeah, she's that's about what I thought. So I mean, that's a very, I mean, she she uh like the national average. Old Diane Keaton.
unknown:Yeah.
SPEAKER_03:A lot of people don't know this. She's the mother of Michael Keaton. No, and we all know I've been childhood friends with Michael Dungett.
SPEAKER_00:Well, one of my um one of my favorite movies with her though is Because I Said So. That is such a good girl's chick flick that nobody talks about. Who's in that? Um, Mandy Moore is her daughter, and she's trying to go on a date. And um she hooks um what's his name from um Harvey from Suits is one of her boats. Oh and it's a really good movie, but it's not available right now. If we want it, we have to rent it on Amazon because probably the minute she died, they put everything on rent only.
SPEAKER_03:I'm tired of renting things. They're killing me with the renting.
SPEAKER_00:I know. Um, but we did watch something else really, really, really good yesterday, which was, or was it yesterday or Saturday? But the Yeah, the Steelers.
SPEAKER_02:Win baby.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, that, but that was the new.
SPEAKER_02:That was really good. That was one of the best things I've seen. No, I'm kidding.
SPEAKER_00:The John Candy documentary.
SPEAKER_03:Oh my word. How good was that?
SPEAKER_00:It was so good.
SPEAKER_03:I didn't realize that was the guy might have been the greatest actor of our time. They shut down the 405. They only did that for two people prior. Who was it? The Pope and the President. And the only other person they've done that for is John Freakin' Candy. What's that tell you? How big of a what's hold on. I had the eyebrow got gone for a minute. I couldn't. No, but I mean, and I love John Candy. Like, I always liked John Candy. Like, I'm not like it's not that I wasn't aware of John Candy, wasn't for but I first off I didn't realize his catalog was so extensive.
SPEAKER_00:Same, same.
SPEAKER_03:I didn't realize how beloved he was by fans and fellow worker, like actors. That's just such a Yep, it really does. He was just, and everybody says the same thing. He was the best person that they knew. Right. You know what I mean? And it I was I I knew it was coming the whole time, obviously, but I did get dairy eyed at the end. When they had when Catherine O'Hara at his funeral. Oh my god. Jeez Louise, what are you trying to do, Amazon? Give me a heart attack from crying?
SPEAKER_06:Yeah.
SPEAKER_03:Oh I was weeping like a little baby.
SPEAKER_00:Oh my god.
SPEAKER_03:So But it was I definitely recommend going to check it out, though. Go watch it. Go watch all the John Candy movies afterwards. I didn't realize he was in nine John Hughes movies.
SPEAKER_00:I didn't either.
SPEAKER_03:Nobody was in more. Nobody was in more.
unknown:Yeah.
SPEAKER_03:Unbelievable.
SPEAKER_00:So we went and watched Uncle not when. We watched Uncle Buck after that and Home Alone.
SPEAKER_03:So And uh a little bit later we're gonna be watching What's Who's Harry Crumb? No, I'm teaching. I they do have all the That's the beauty of right now is Amazon's not being a dick and make you rent them all. Like they usually do. Usually Christmas time, you gotta rent all the stupid, the good Christmas movies. Halloween, you gotta rent the good ones if you want to watch them. Sure, we'll give you goosebumps, but you gotta rent goosebumps too, you asshole. Uh um but they right now they have uh they have Uncle Buck on there, they have uh The Great Outdoors, they have Brewster's Millions, they have Who's Harry Crumb, they have Delirious. Did you ever see that? Where he's like a writer and he like gets into the world of like soap. I forget how it even goes, but what's funny about that movie is I've only ever seen it one time and I remember it. And I was at Grandma Fliggle's house, and it was on just like on playing on one of the movie channels or whatever, and I was like, what is this? And she's like, It's a really funny movie. And we I remember watching it, delirious. Um yeah, I love John Candy. I like him now, he's like my idol. Before I liked him, now he's like my hero. Like he's he's a great guy.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, yeah, agree. All right, so we've been talking everyone's ear off for a little over an hour about absolutely nothing. We had no structure this week. Just a couple thoughts to share with you guys. Um, I still haven't even released half the clips from the last two episodes, so if you haven't watched it. I'm going to be flooding.
SPEAKER_03:But uh no, no. I was just going to say, I mean, if you haven't figured it out by now, though, that's what podcasts are: people rambling on incessantly about absolutely nothing. Um and just hoping that maybe you can enjoy a little bit of the conversation. That's it.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah.
SPEAKER_03:I was thinking about, though, I will say this, I was thinking about my you know how I've had this joke for a long time about my my hairy chest and how the hair is so long it looks like those little Jewish dreadlock things. I was thinking about making that joke, but I was like, what if we could actually twist it up and then shave my hair to look like the face of a rabbi? Wouldn't that be hilarious?
SPEAKER_05:Oh my god.
SPEAKER_00:I could figure that out. I could f I could hair gel.
SPEAKER_03:Oh, it could it could be done. I'm hairy enough. I can do it could be done. And I have hair everywhere, so you could just trace whatever shape you want into it. Like, it's easy.
SPEAKER_00:Oh my god.
SPEAKER_03:But wouldn't that be funny to be tell that joke and then be like, no, I'm serious. Look, then lift your shirt up and it looks like a freaking it really looks like a rabbi with like the things. How funny would that be? That would be uh oh my god, it'd be hysterical.
SPEAKER_00:It would. You're right. You're right.
SPEAKER_03:Speaking of, I want to no, let's talk about something else here, because you your shirt just reminded me, and we've never talked about this, I don't think, on the podcast. We've been to the exorcist steps.
SPEAKER_00:We have.
SPEAKER_03:We have like the f very famous scene that you see there on her shirt. What's that?
SPEAKER_00:I said, and they're pretty damn steep.
SPEAKER_03:You throw anybody, you throw somebody down them pairs I can't even talk. You throw somebody down them steps, and they ain't coming out of it. Because it's first off, it's a huge set of steps. Imagine walking up those steps. That's what I'm saying. If you're down in Georgetown and you gotta walk up to that other street, that's a hell of a walk. Hell no. I'll walk around and catch it.
SPEAKER_00:I'm not walking up them steps, but how cute is that little area down in Georgetown where all that stuff is? There's so much like that.
SPEAKER_03:Georgetown's great. Yeah, Georgetown's super nice. I mean, it's obviously super, super expensive. Um, also famously made famous by that's where Will Smith lives in Enemy of the State is Georgetown.
SPEAKER_00:Ooh, I love that movie. We just watched that.
SPEAKER_03:Ooh, let's talk about that. We just watched that. Let's talk about that. This is our highlighted little bonus of the week. We watched Enemy of the State, which, if you don't agree that that is the best movie of 1990, whatever, you're wrong. No. It's Will Smith. It's my favorite Will Smith movie. It's my favorite Gene Hackman movie. Look at all the people in it. And it doesn't get old. Look at Seth who Jack Black, Seth Green, Jake Busey, uh, that other guy that's like John Voigt, but that's like John Voigt's right-hand man in the movie. Uh what's the gangster's name? Tom Sizemore.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, yes. And um even uh Will's wife, Will Smith's wife in the movie.
SPEAKER_03:Regina King. Yeah. Um Regina King's Oh, Lisa Bonet. Um it's just packed full of stars. And it's crazy how good a movie it is. Like, even you would think that a movie about technology wouldn't age well at all. You know what I mean? Like, you'd think you would watch that 30 years later and be like, this doesn't hold up. It it all like it holds up better, and it's even like more true today. Like, if they made Enemy of the State 2, it would just be them getting a drone into his house and killing him right in the back of the head without anyone knowing. Like oh, Jason Lee is in the movie.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, yeah. Sorry, it's chopping out again. I'm just like zoning out the street.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, that's okay, baby. I'm just yeah, we'll wrap it up here. Yeah, uh anything else, closing, parting words. Uh we're getting ready for the Halloween show. Halloween's coming up. The next time we talk to you, we're gonna talk about trick-or-treating, cigarettes that I left on the porch, uh, scary stories. Uh we've had a show here at the house. We uh we might we'll be we're we have been investigating something. We talked about that the last time. We'll continue to investigate. That's gonna be coming up.
SPEAKER_00:Matthew McDonald missing in Pennsylvania. Yeah, we're gonna continue to work on that. Um so Sam's videos. Yeah, we went out there, we um filmed the cemetery where he was allegedly left um dropped off. Uh Sam's posts have been getting a lot more traction on TikTok. So um there's some comments in there that I want to vet through. There's some assholes that are trying to make Matthew look like he was worse than what he was.
SPEAKER_03:So um trolls obviously To me, it's one of those things, it's like saying, like, when a woman like when a hooker gets murdered, like by a oh, she was just a that doesn't mean we shouldn't solve the murder. Like, what are you talking about? Like that doesn't even begin to make sense. Like it's the stupidest thing I've ever heard when you victim blame.
SPEAKER_00:I feel so bad for his mom and his sisters and or his sister, and it's like I mean, they're the ones that still don't have answers. And now not only do they not have answers, but they have to deal with fucking trolls and low lives and people who are.
SPEAKER_03:Because he was a drug addict. If that as if that has something to do with like, oh, he should have been murdered. Right. Like what? Like it doesn't even make sense. Like, yeah, did that maybe have a role in why or what happened? Sure. But what does that have to do with anything? Like, why not still look at it?
SPEAKER_00:Right. And uh, that's the thing that's still in question is I don't even think he was an addict. I think that he was new to methamphetamines and didn't realize what he was getting himself into. Because remember, he had been in jail for 10 years, so off and on. So he was very much just a product of the prison system and didn't really know the outside world as well as he could or should have. So I mean, I'm not saying he was in a I'm not saying he should have that he was in there 10 solid years, right? But it was like up and down in his adult life. And so um he and he was also apparently very trusting where he shouldn't have been. And so he just got he did this is definitely a case of mixing with the wrong people and having the wrong people take advantage of you because you're either too nice or too naive. That's what I'm saying.
SPEAKER_03:Well, that's what I'm just gonna say. The bottom line is he still shouldn't have been murdered.
SPEAKER_00:Do you know what I mean?
SPEAKER_03:Like that's just it doesn't matter what the situation is. Yeah, I keep saying that. Yeah, I do need to be. But I mean, let's be real Yeah, no, I agree, but let's be realistic too about it, though. It's like I think that there's something bad happened, and I think that those people, um what's you know what I mean, had something to do with it. That's my initial reaction to it.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah.
SPEAKER_03:Like you said, people that he shouldn't have people took advantage of his kind. They they took his kindness for weakness and it got him.
SPEAKER_00:But yeah, so we're gonna continue to cover that. Um I have a cool story to go with it, but we'll do it for the um the next episode. Um we'll talk about that.
SPEAKER_03:Um and real quick though, one thing though before we leave Black Friday, people, Johnstown people, Black Friday. There's gonna be more information to come, but look for it. Frankie George, uh, all the wrong move productions is back at it again, gonna be back, I think, at the Masonic Temple again. But just be on the lookout for that, because if you know anything about that last one, Papa's gonna be back in the Egyptian room. That's all I'm saying.
SPEAKER_00:And you've got a show, what, uh, the 24th at a place called what?
SPEAKER_04:Oh, I forgot about that. Funky claw, funky claws, and looking together. No, uh funky funky claw codeclaud, whichever you prefer.
SPEAKER_03:No, it's a funky claws in Altoona. I have no idea what to expect. It's music, it's comedy. Um it's gonna be a good time. Then we have our show on the 25th, which is gonna be, I can't even begin to tell you how fun that's gonna be. Then Black Friday, and then the day after we just freshly minted the contract on this one. No, um, the arena uh bar and grill in State College. A lot of people that follow the comedy farm are already familiar with that. We're this is the people's request. This Scott, Scott Kelly, tracksuit Scott. Three Scots. There might be one that's a not. So three Scots and a not, it's Ridge.
unknown:I'm gonna let you in on that.
SPEAKER_03:Um, but Ridge may not be able to make it. That's why it's possibly. So it's possibly three Scots and a not, but it might just be three Scots, or maybe we get another Scott if Ridge can't make it. What about that? Um I think there's actually five in the central PA comedy scene. Um Central West. I'm trying to come up with a unique name for our area, like West Central Region, or something. You know what I mean? Like something like that. Because it's like it's not the s I would call the central region like the Harrisburg area, which is we're not a part of that really, but like Johnstown, Altoona, State College, Huntington are like its own little thing outside in between Harrisburg and Pittsburgh, that I would call the West Central region, the Central West region.
SPEAKER_04:Sure.
SPEAKER_03:And it's filled with Scots, nothing but Scots and one ridge.
SPEAKER_00:All right, guys. Well, we've done a lot, we've got a lot coming up, we're talking about a lot. Um, so enjoy the new music on the way out. Um we will be cutting a video for that too. And in case nobody's told you guys this week, stick me.
SPEAKER_02:It's got an Atlanta probably buckle tight, it's a shadow dry.
