The Power's Point Podcast
Lets Just Wing It
What happens when three podcast hosts throw away the script and just hit record? Pure conversational gold. When our scheduled guest couldn't make it, we decided to embrace the chaos and see where the discussion naturally led us. The result is a delightfully unpredictable episode that weaves through wrestling controversies, bizarre Florida headlines, and nostalgic confessions.
Wrestling fans will appreciate our candid take on WrestleMania's evolution and WWE's recent acquisition of AAA (now to be called NXT Mexico). We dive into concerns about wrestling industry consolidation while sharing our reactions to some truly memorable moments from this year's events. The conversation takes a fascinating turn with our "Florida Man: Real or Fake" segment, where we test each other's ability to distinguish between authentic Florida newspaper headlines and fabricated ones. Can you guess which headlines like "Florida man tries to rob Waffle House with finger guns" or "Florida man caught with cocaine hidden in his belly button" are actually real?
The episode gets surprisingly reflective when we discuss our guilty pleasures and shared love for classic cartoons. Our conversation about content warnings on older animations highlights the challenge of preserving media history while acknowledging problematic elements. Throughout it all, our unfiltered chemistry creates moments of genuine laughter and unexpected insights.
This episode proves that sometimes the best podcast moments happen when you scrap the planning and trust the flow of natural conversation. Whether you're a wrestling enthusiast, enjoy bizarre news stories, or simply appreciate authentic discussions among friends, this episode delivers unscripted entertainment at its finest. Subscribe now and join us as we continue to embrace the beautiful mess of podcasting without a safety net.

On this episode of the Powers Point Podcast, Scott just pushes record and we just talk. Well, this ought to be interesting. Okay, Scott, drop the beat. No script, no plan, no big idea.
Speaker 2:We hit record and shift the gear. Scott, jim and Keith, they're taking flight. Buckle up, it's gonna be a night. Let's just wing it. Throw the notes away away. Say what we want and we'll call it a day. If it gets weird, well, that's our thing. On the powers point pod, we do. Our winging conspiracy may be dumb news for sure. Tangents and bad jokes you'll have to endure, from random facts to off-track chats. We're podcast pros, or something like that. Maybe we'll talk about aliens or toast or argue about who rambles the most. We ride the chaos. We chase the fun when the mics are hot. The wingings begun, let's just wing it. Forget the script a train wreck with charm, unscripted wit. If you're still here, you're part of the gang. We're flying blind and that's our thing. Let's just wing it. Throw the away. Yeah, we wing it all the way.
Speaker 3:Well, hello, hello. Welcome to the Powers Point Podcast. I'm Scott Powers, the guy who is here to make sure you laugh at least once maybe twice if we're lucky, and with me, as always, are the two guys who make this show way more fun than I do and slightly more unpredictable. We're talking about Jim Banks and Keith Mackey. Mackie, what's up, fellas, not much how's it going?
Speaker 3:so what have you guys been up to? It's been a couple weeks since we've last recorded not that the people that are listening would know, because we just had our new show drop, if I only knew the previous show. So what have you guys been up to?
Speaker 4:See, if I only knew it dropped, we might have listened to it already. Well, we caught WrestleMania. Obviously, we went through that, you know.
Speaker 3:Were you guys happy with the outcome, or were you guys just like eh?
Speaker 1:It's kind of like changed. Now we all thought with the Vince era it was a certain way, and now it. We all thought with the vince era it was, it was a certain way. And then we, and now it's without him and it seems, with the purchase of that other company, that it's going to be more like this. We had you couldn't do it right away, but now after a couple months, it's like so many plus, like every second they're plugging something product or something like money, money, money. They're just. And it's like hundreds of commercials and you're like God, I just want to get to the fricking wrestling. It's like it's ridiculous how, and it's all celebrities, nobody knows and stuff, internet people. I'm like this is just crazy.
Speaker 3:Especially rappers, especially rappers. It's like you know, back in the day there was only so many rappers, so you knew who they were, but now it's like who's little shorty, who's this guy, who's that?
Speaker 1:guy, you know, and then ai, there's ai, everything, and I'm like, oh my gosh, this is just, I want just wrestling let's not drop out, ai, okay, okay, okay. So that's my friend, that's your religion.
Speaker 4:I'm not your friend, you know it just feels dangerous, uh, for whatever reason, when the you know it feels dangerous. When the non uh, you know, normal wrestlers are in there, when the celebrities are in there, you just feel like, and I feel like they're gonna hurt one of the wrestlers more than the wrestlers are gonna hurt one of them.
Speaker 1:And obviously that's proven to be, you know to be the case, and at least in the last couple of weeks like a sid vicious incident, where a celebrity snaps its leg and it's just flopping around and everybody's just staring at us.
Speaker 3:Oh my, goodness, and then scott's the share to scott dude, did you guys see the video of dominic uh walking down the hallway past papa pump and he's holding the the belt up in papa pump's face because he just took it off his nephew. Wow, and pop a ball back. She pop, a pump actually snapped, it's our custom amount and dominic's just laughing and walking. That's cool it's.
Speaker 1:It's hard to watch like all, uh, what 48 hours they have, like every single thing. They like record every second of the day, both days. It's like man, I can't watch the 10 hour pre-show and this, all this other stuff oh, dude, how about the the hall of fame?
Speaker 3:it was over at 3 42 am yeah, that was crazy.
Speaker 4:I thought that was awesome weren't there wrestlers?
Speaker 1:like falling asleep in the in the audience or something yeah, and they started going home.
Speaker 3:And you know, the thing is I had to be up at 6 30 and like I'm staring at the clock, dude, and I'm like, come on, and we just hit three o'clock and triple h is still going, you know. But what he said was pretty freaking amazing man. You know, I actually the line, the line that I remember the most from him, because he kept crying and he's like I gotta get the doctor here to check my estrogen levels, but he would say some funny shit and wake me right up. You know, it's like things are funnier when you're half asleep, you know. And then you're right, when they're like, oh, come on, and then you start falling asleep and they'll say something else funny speaking of dominic, I just sent something to you guys' phones.
Speaker 4:Have you seen this yet?
Speaker 1:Is it dirty? No, there it is.
Speaker 4:In a way it is.
Speaker 1:Oh my god, it is Dominic's like a vampire. He's eternal.
Speaker 3:That's crazy man.
Speaker 4:For those who can't see it, it's a picture of dominant mysterio side by side with um and justice for all era picture of lars ulrich, and they look incredibly similar you know what I like about dominic?
Speaker 3:he uh, he's keeping the eddie guerrero uh tradition with the like the mullet and the and the greasy mustache. Yeah, have you seen pictures really?
Speaker 1:cool. Have you seen pictures? He's also wearing different parts of his uh attire, like little bits out of like seven different like his uncle, his dad, his uh mill mascaras, other legends of uh lucha libre, and he has little bits on his whole thing and I'm like, wow, he's incorporating all of them.
Speaker 4:That's so cool okay, so that's why he has the shirt wrapped around his waist now I think that that's someone did that or something.
Speaker 1:Yeah, pretty much, whatever he is, whatever he has on, someone did that. I'm like, wow, oh, speaking of that, what about, uh, the big news, wwe purchasing or not purchasing, late co purchasing, co-owner or something of AAA.
Speaker 3:Yeah, they did buy them, but now they're called NXT Mexico. Now.
Speaker 1:Oh my gosh.
Speaker 3:They announced that yeah, that's what they're going to call it.
Speaker 1:No, you can't take away the AAA name. That's been around for like 80 years.
Speaker 3:Triple H took away triple a. I mean, what else can we say, my god, uh. But he said, he said at the post show which, which took forever, also afterwards, uh that they weren't really going to mess with mexico the way they're doing things, which I kind of find hard to believe. But I think the reason why they did that is a big screw you to the Tony Khan.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 3:Because you've got to be borrowing a lot of AAA guys.
Speaker 1:Well, I hope that they don't do what they kind of did to Europe and stuff when they were buying, trying to go over there and buy the different feds and that in Europe it kind of like made European wrestling like go down and like not a lot of companies, all the little companies failed and stuff.
Speaker 3:Well, it's going to be like a monopoly again.
Speaker 1:That's what I'm hoping it doesn't lead to you know.
Speaker 4:Right, right, and that if it makes it all the same, who wants that because then that go over japan.
Speaker 1:Next because the economy's struggling and then all of a sudden in a year, like there's, they're on a major continent the rock did post himself in a picture on twitter with a new japan shirt on.
Speaker 3:So people automatically think, yeah, people are probably thinking is that next, you know? So, uh, the time to hit. You know, like, if they buy like triple a, which they did, are they just gonna like make it bigger, if they leave it alone to promote it? You know, maybe add a few of their guys, maybe train like at a performance center, the more art of lucha libre style I would totally, because they need, yeah, they need the next generation of wrestlers, you know, because where are they coming from? And now wwe owns a lot of independent wrestling schools, yeah, across the uS, so they have all those people contracted already. Uh, so they, they can't go to AEW. They're buying out the Lucha Libre which Tony Khan can't use, no more.
Speaker 1:Uh, I mean I would love to see them keep the AAA name, put a lot of their stuff on the uh uh WWE library or the app, whatever it is.
Speaker 3:Well, there's a lot man, they've been around since the 50s or you know, or yeah, I mean you got ray mysterio that wrestled there, conan wrestled there, uh, just like a lot of like famous people that wrestled there. You know I would so I'd run it.
Speaker 1:But you know, let it keep going and stuff under its name and that just every all the money and stuff comes you and, like you said, just have a great performance place where everybody can train and stuff uh, that's where.
Speaker 4:Uh, that's where paul london had like his most. His best work right was in triple a yeah okay, what was this character's name again?
Speaker 1:uh, it was the white something yeah, I can't remember, was it Blanco?
Speaker 4:no, it might've been something Blanco, but I remember it was something. It was like an over the top character. I haven't actually saw very much of it, but I did see that that was supposedly. If you're a fan of him and I think he's he's pretty cool Um, that, that's what. That that's where his best, absolute best stuff was done.
Speaker 3:Yeah, right on, right on, hey, we are going to hit record and see what comes out. And uh, it's not all wrestling talk for the people that don't like wrestling, and that's all that's about. That's about what we are and what we appreciate. You know the the fine art of uh, entertainment, uh, wwe and aew and all that other wrestling stuff. So, but we're going to change it up with a new segment when we got back, or when we got back uh, when we get back, we're going to talk about killing joke oh yeah, the new documentary.
Speaker 3:Keep watching for like six weeks six weeks.
Speaker 4:Yeah, actually watched earlier today right, right on.
Speaker 3:So stay tuned. We'll be back after these messages. Welcome back. As we said before the commercial and before the intro music, we're just hitting record. Today we had a guest scheduled and life happens and we didn't have anything planned except for her guest. But she will be on and it's somebody new, it's not a Canadian, guys. And hey listen in so this one is a new segment. I'm calling a Florida man Real or fake. It's where I'll read a headline from a Florida newspaper and you guys got to tell me if it's fake or real.
Speaker 1:There's that many Florida story man stories.
Speaker 3:Lots of Florida crazy.
Speaker 4:Yeah, I remember we haven't said there's one for every day of the year.
Speaker 3:Wow, so first question, guys, is a Florida man's arrested after trying to steal a live alligator from a golf course?
Speaker 4:Trying to steal it. Yeah, I don't know, I guess who would have. Would the golf course have owned the alligator? I'm still going to say that one's true.
Speaker 1:I'm going to say it's true, because I'm gonna say he's good, I want enough horses have like lingering animals and people.
Speaker 3:Sometimes you know it's an attraction, so yeah but you guys are both right. It is real. He told the police that he was teaching it a lesson. Teaching it a lesson whatever yeah, whatever that lesson? I have no clue.
Speaker 1:Take it away from its home.
Speaker 4:He's gonna go.
Speaker 3:Question number two, or headline number two Florida man claims he's half dolphin cited for swimming naked in a public fountain.
Speaker 1:Hmm, that sounds fake, but if someone's drunk enough, that would be what they tell the cops that's.
Speaker 4:That would be the logic. Yeah, I agree, I'm gonna say true. Yeah, I'm behind that logic.
Speaker 3:I'm gonna say true also jim, you should have stuck with your tuition intuition. It is fake, dang it somehow.
Speaker 4:But somehow it doesn't seem that far off in this place it does sound like some something somebody would say to try and get out of it.
Speaker 1:We need a listener to try that now, the next time a listener gets drunk and the cops come.
Speaker 3:Half dolphin man, or whatever they do, the dolphin squeaking. Yeah, there you go.
Speaker 4:We went to a used record store years ago where there was a kid working there named Dolphin and they called me Dolphin. I'm like dude, they calling you Dolphin yeah, that's my name, oh, okay.
Speaker 3:I seen a guy on ESPN today called Booger. I mean, come on, now, here we go. Headline number three Florida man tries to rob.
Speaker 4:Waffle House with finger guns? Yeah, I believe that.
Speaker 1:No, that's fake. Oh, your finger like a gun, finger bang. I thought you meant a gun made out of fingers.
Speaker 3:No, I'm going to still say no, it's fake. What did you say, Keith?
Speaker 4:I said, I think it's true.
Speaker 3:It's true. He said that this is a stick-up, but it was just his fingers. Yeah, there's some weird guys, man, and weird things happen at Waffle Houses. Yeah, we don't have any up there. I went to a Waffle House down towards Indianapolis and it was quite eventful when I was in there and almost a fight, so I could see it happening they're so plain looking.
Speaker 4:When I saw the second Waffle House there's one I've seen through the majority of my life. When I saw the second one, I was surprised that it was. I thought it was just a one off. You know what I mean. That the one that I did see. I thought that was the only one. You know what I mean. The one that I did see. I thought that was the only one. You know what I mean. I had no idea it was a chain.
Speaker 3:Oh man, you know what? And every wrestler has a favorite at the Waffle House that they go in and order.
Speaker 4:Right right.
Speaker 3:So headline number four Florida man breaks into house, bakes cookies and takes a nap.
Speaker 4:That sounds like a Jesse, a jesse pinkman fucking fueled soul reader I'll say it's true. I'll say he was drunk and he thought it was his house I'd say he was probably on meth and thought it was his house the answer is true.
Speaker 3:When cleece found him, he was sound asleep on a couch with cookies in the air here we we go. Headline number five Florida man marries a tree in protest of deforestation.
Speaker 1:No, I don't see that happening.
Speaker 4:Who married him to the tree.
Speaker 3:Yeah, it got me man. That was the headline.
Speaker 4:My brother-in-law does marriages so maybe we can see if he'll do one in the future. But I don't think anybody's going to marry mean, I don't think anybody's gonna marry the guy to the tree. I must fall off on that one.
Speaker 1:Just leave that story alone.
Speaker 3:Yeah, Alright, the answer is fake, but now I kinda want it to be real, oh my, gosh. Headline number six A Florida man dressed as pirate arrested for firing cannons from a rooftop.
Speaker 1:Wow, Wow. You don't hear of someone having a cannon nowadays.
Speaker 3:That's exactly what I was going to say that's really rare to make.
Speaker 1:Unless it was an enthusiast that has old nostalgic stuff in their house.
Speaker 4:Or he worked for a high school, maybe, and they had ones or or some kind of university where they might have had the cannon. So I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that one's true I'm say false, no jim, you got this one man.
Speaker 3:Those several people have dressed as pirates in odd situations. No one has fired cannons from a roof. Imagine that man I know at the park in Lake Station man, they used to have a thing called maze days and they would shoot the cannon, but they would shoot the like potatoes wrapped in aluminum and they would shoot them up, but they would fire them towards the river and the woods.
Speaker 1:If somebody got hit, they would complain and then say, hey, at least it wasn't a cannonball, it was just a potato.
Speaker 4:Just trying to make sure it was wrapped in the foil. It wasn't cooked yet, though.
Speaker 1:Oh, Indiana.
Speaker 3:Headline number eight or seven A Florida man arrested after petting zoo lion bites his toes.
Speaker 1:Oh, yeah, they go to the petting zoo and the lion bites his toes. Oh yeah, if they go to the petting zoo and the lion bites his toes, he sues.
Speaker 3:Or put him to sleep.
Speaker 1:I'll say true, because everybody's sue happy.
Speaker 4:Did you say he sued? I thought you said he got arrested. Did you say he sued him?
Speaker 3:No, he's arrested.
Speaker 1:Oh, he's arrested.
Speaker 3:Wait, wait, say it again, I messed up florida man arrested after petting zoo lion bites his toes wait.
Speaker 1:He was arrested after lion bit his toes yeah, that is a man no, the lion bit his toes. Bit his toes off but what did he do to get arrested? Well, stick his foot in the cage yeah, I think it.
Speaker 3:I mean it's a lion. Now Come on.
Speaker 1:Hope he wasn't sticking something else and going come on. Yeah, I'm going to say false.
Speaker 3:This one's not that weird.
Speaker 4:I'm going to say false.
Speaker 3:It's real. Oh, he stuck his foot by the line and it just falls off.
Speaker 4:Wow, what year Does it say? A year?
Speaker 3:I just got the headlines.
Speaker 4:Okay, I'll say it All. Right, let's skip to that one. If it's something within the last 20 years, I'm thinking there's a good chance. There's video, at least coverage of it. Maybe not footage footage, but you know no pun intended, look that up footage.
Speaker 3:Just a couple more Florida man caught speeding, claims car was being chased by a time traveler that's hilarious.
Speaker 4:Oh my god, that's funny again, knowing the, knowing, the, the um popularity of of the methamphetamines in florida, I believe that one's true, true it is fake.
Speaker 3:Oh, come on, well, we give this one, we give this one. Points for creativity yeah, that's pretty out there. Well what?
Speaker 1:about the aliens who showed up at the mall in florida. There's people, there's like a ton of people.
Speaker 4:Well, what about the aliens who showed up at the mall in Florida? There's people, there's like a ton of people, saying they not only saw the aliens, they saw the portal.
Speaker 3:There's video. There's video of that.
Speaker 4:Yeah, the portal opens and it explodes out before they walk out. It's like holy shit.
Speaker 1:Did you hear the?
Speaker 4:thing about if you take the coordinates and reverse them, it takes you toarctica, like the northernmost part in antarctica. That if you, if whatever it is that they showed up that it's exactly that.
Speaker 3:It's the exact opposite of the court it lines up, the lines up with with yeah yeah really yeah, the cal mccoy stuff right there.
Speaker 4:But yeah, that's. You know, the alien shit scares me all the time but I assume I don't, don't know, I've heard a lot about this Antarctica stuff.
Speaker 1:There's elites over there, Rothschilds and all those 1% people.
Speaker 4:There's like tropical areas underneath the ice, yeah.
Speaker 3:And there's a giant wall.
Speaker 1:Well, if everybody's going to rush on the government, or they're going to rush on Area 51 last year or two, why don't everybody just rush to Antarctica and just hoard that place or something?
Speaker 3:Who the hell, who the hell, is going to jump in that cold? Oh, that's, that's starting to find the truth.
Speaker 1:You got to go.
Speaker 3:Right, all right guys. Headline number nine. Headline number nine Florida man brings iguana into restaurant, throws it at a manager over a salad dispute.
Speaker 4:I can see that one happening. Why would you bring it?
Speaker 1:in before the dispute. I don't understand you were planning on just throwing it on the table and then starting a fight with the you threw it at the manager, someone would want to make a video of it or something and be popular on the internet. So, yeah, I'll say true, table. And then, starting a fight with the, you threw it at the manager. Okay, I could see it, because someone would want to make a video of it or something and be popular on the internet.
Speaker 3:So, yeah, I'll say true, you said true yeah, true, yes, yes you guys are both right. So that's how you get mad. You just like take the iguana and throw it at him. That poor iguana.
Speaker 1:He'd ask what I was thinking, poor iguana that's what I was thinking.
Speaker 4:Poor iguana, what did he do? Wear whatever the iguana, you know.
Speaker 3:I got three more Florida man. Florida man sues ghost for stealing the sandwiches.
Speaker 1:That's what he tells his wife. I didn't eat him. The ghost ate him. I'm suing the ghost.
Speaker 4:I'm going to say false on that one.
Speaker 1:I'm going to say false on that one I'm going to say false, that doesn't sound right.
Speaker 3:You guys are on a roll. Well, it is false. Because there were no ghosts were legally held responsible.
Speaker 1:What quote are you going to take it to?
Speaker 3:Here we go. Headline 11, Florida man caught with cocaine hidden in his belly button.
Speaker 4:Yeah, I can believe that to be true because there's some people out there got some pretty deep belly button. Yeah, I can believe that to be true, because there's some people out there got some pretty deep belly buttons.
Speaker 1:You got a wicked innie.
Speaker 4:Not that I've explored many, but I do know they exist oh.
Speaker 1:I believe it true too.
Speaker 3:All right, so the answer is real. He told the cops he didn't know it was there. That's always the best one man.
Speaker 4:See, that's why Captain Lil' Ben always had those rubber bands. Huh yeah.
Speaker 3:All right, here we go with the last one of the Florida man truth or fake segment. Florida man tries to fight Hurricane by punching it from the beach.
Speaker 1:Punch the no. That's false. That sounds dumb. That sounds made up real quick. That sounds like a kid would make that up. I was punching the hurricane. Yeah, I went to the beach.
Speaker 4:Yeah, I'm going to say that's false. These are all the same, gentlemen. By the way, right, probably is.
Speaker 3:So both of you guys say fake.
Speaker 4:Yeah.
Speaker 3:The answer is real.
Speaker 4:He posted the video and shouted you can't take Florida from us way to go Florida way to go alright, he must train an American top team down there like Molly right so just trying to fit in a bunch of segments here.
Speaker 3:How about the pleasures, man? Oh yeah. So time to get personal. We're going to toss out a few common guilty pleasures, and you guys have to either confess that it's true for you or deny it and try to lie to all of us with a straight face. Play the saucy music. First one you have a secret playlist labeled Sad Bops that you only listen to while driving alone.
Speaker 4:That's definitely false. I have no secret playlist. My most embarrassing shit I listen to out in the open.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I don't have a secret playlist either. I don't listen I try not to listen to any sad songs.
Speaker 4:I confess, I confess I try not to listen to any sad songs.
Speaker 3:I confess, I confess There'll be sad songs. I do so, you know, like I love listening to Foreigner. One note love it, I love Foreigner. You know I keep playing it over and over. And then I'll go with tragically hip, slow songs, like I love listening to 80s ballads, man.
Speaker 1:Okay, I listen to. All right I I take it back.
Speaker 4:I listen to sad songs but I don't like come on cry come on, not necessarily consecutively, right, yeah, yeah I might.
Speaker 1:One of my co-workers I don't want to say his name, but you could figure it out he listens to like that sad stuff and I'll be like, dude, what, what's, what's this?
Speaker 4:you know, sometimes maybe that's just the tempo they can vibe with.
Speaker 1:Or stub your toe. You don't have to listen to music. You can try that way?
Speaker 4:Or David Letterman said that's how the song Susudio came. Was Phil Collins to stub his toe?
Speaker 3:Nothing wakes you up faster than stubbing your pinky toe when you wake up to go to the bathroom. So next guilty pleasure you watched a kid's cartoon recently. Liked it more than he cared to admit. Again, we're not putting you down.
Speaker 4:I have to fall my daughter down to watch cartoons. Quit watching those internet videos. Watch this. Yeah, no more PewDiePie and whatever them guys are that. You know what I mean. Don't watch people, play video games. Come watch cartoons with us.
Speaker 1:It's not a guilt or pleasure because I watch. I just watch cartoons, all kind of like I gotta watch this stuff.
Speaker 3:I think I watch cartoons all the time as well, just to kind of escape what's going on in the world.
Speaker 4:Right.
Speaker 3:You know, and. But then they cross the line when they do the CGI cartoons. Okay, I mean, I've always said that my favorite era is like the Hanna-Barbera era. Yeah, I love those cartoons, and then you can't find them really nowhere.
Speaker 4:Right, and the Warner era. Yeah, I love, I love those cartoons and then you can't find them really nowhere. Right? And the warner brothers? Now, in that case, you watch some of those cartoons, especially like man. The animaniacs are on a level of intelligence yeah that man you don't get in in, I don't think, any other show period yeah you know, animaniacs I liked and then when they came back it seemed like they were more political, you know?
Speaker 3:and? And that drives me up the wall, because I don't want politics in my cartoon man I don't want to laugh. You know, what do you guys think about? You mentioned looney tunes, like. But what do you think about? Now, when you watch the looney tunes? They put a disclaimer in the front of the Looney Tunes cartoon saying that this actually didn't happen. And you have to, like, really try to tell kids that this ain't real, you know, yeah.
Speaker 1:Kids tell us, the society's made everybody.
Speaker 3:Yeah, that's sad.
Speaker 1:I'd rather take the warning to legally cover themselves from being, you know, canceled or sued or like never showing that cartoon in life again.
Speaker 1:I'd rather the warning yeah, they do it with tom and jerry yeah, well they, they made the the first like couple seasons of tom and jerry on blu-ray and they had a warning on there and I said this is awesome and I bought it and that's great. But they were going to come out with volume too. But because warner brothers got so much much people going crazy over the early back then, it was like right when it was going to come out, they just were not going to put it out now and it's like, but you had the warning and that's it, that's all people need. If they want it, they'll buy it. I mean, yeah, it should not exist Right, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 4:And especially like with tex avery man.
Speaker 1:The tex avery stuff is a lot of controversial stuff in there, but, man, that's some of the most genius stuff you're ever going to find in the early 2000s good you know, I was going to say you could watch all tex avery stuff specifically on tubi yeah, but all the uh, yeah, tubi seems to put the stuff out there and they don't like edit anything. And I'm like, wow, like the cat and the cuckoo clock one, um, yeah, the cat. The cat runs up there and the cuckoo clock like real high in the in the. The cat all of a sudden has a gun and he puts it right to the cuckoo's head and then the cuckoo takes the gun and shoots him point blank in the head and he falls down the ladder and I'm like I'm laughing. I remember that. Yeah, well, wait a second. They didn't block that at all, no right right, I like that.
Speaker 1:I appreciate that well, all right, they tried to take yosemite sam away, right yeah, oh that's just crazy see, if you feed into one person crying, you're gonna keep doing it for your rest of your life.
Speaker 3:I got the last one and I'm sure, being married, I'm sure I know the answer. You used the phrase I'm just rusting my eyes when clearly you were dead asleep on the couch.
Speaker 1:My favorite time for listening to stories is in bed at night or something, or in the living room when it's all dark and'm just sitting there like at an angle, like yeah, yeah, I hear you. No, my eyes are always half open.
Speaker 3:I don't know why I argue with the wife, you know, because clearly I woke myself up too when it was like you know, like one of those, and then it's like go to bed and you're like I was asleep, and then you wake up the next time and everybody's gone because they're tired of hearing you sleep. Aww.
Speaker 1:I'm usually yelled at to get out of the room yeah, go to bed my son hates the sound of someone sleeping, or even it could be like just a little bit, and he's like dad, dad, dad, get out of here, go, go. I'm like you go to your room now.
Speaker 4:My daughter's the one who's always sleeping, and you gotta get up what I wasn't sleeping like. What did they just say on the tv?
Speaker 3:it'd be okay if it was something that they watched and they can like quote it because they could see where it's at in the movie and like oh right you know, uh, what are some other guilty pleasures that you have, if you guys got a couple I'm trying to start one right now, an easter.
Speaker 1:I did what uh keith said with the guacamole and the deviled egg. Oh, how'd that work out it tastes. I only had two of them, but it was pretty good. I like scooped out the deviled egg part and I uh put guacamole in there. I'm like, oh, my god, I can do this awesome, awesome.
Speaker 4:See, I don't know, if I don't know the word, the the guilty is, was kind of messing me up. It's because, I don't know, I've never really, you know, I've always been kind of open about it, you know well.
Speaker 1:Plus, we, we've all get into this age, past 50 or almost 50 and once you get that, you don't care what anyone says or thinks and I don't care, I'll do this, I don't care yeah, yeah and, and my wife and I have such a great relationship, it's like it's kind of taken away, you know everything like that.
Speaker 4:Like she pauses uh tv shows to bring me in and point out where a woman has a nice set of breasts wow, yeah, nice, like what it's like, come here. It's like come here, man, and then, yeah, it's like us. Yeah, you're right.
Speaker 3:Oh, it's like the wife she sees Roman Reigns. Roman Reigns loves Jason Momoa. You know, those are the two, you know, but my guilty pleasure is Stephanie McMahon.
Speaker 4:Oh Jesus, yeah, she is All right, always.
Speaker 1:Well. Plus, if you say you're, if it's a guilty pleasure and your wife judges you, you could just say hey, you married me, so yeah right, you know what you're getting into.
Speaker 3:Yeah, anything else, you guys.
Speaker 1:I can't, I can't, before we wrap Um.
Speaker 4:I honestly I think my guilty pleasure has to be the smoking. It's got to be the only thing that I feel like I shouldn't do.
Speaker 3:You know, yeah, how long have you done it though?
Speaker 4:uh 30 fuck, since I was 16, so like 34 years almost oh see, so I mean it's part of normal everyday life.
Speaker 4:Now, man, it's indeed it is, and it actually helped, uh, with my stomach majorly in the beginning when I couldn't hold food down. You know, I mean it helped me a lot. It definitely helps me a lot with anxiety. What I would like to give up is that it ain't just that I that I I smoke, is that I smoke the blunts and I gotta give the tobacco part of it up. You know what I mean. I don't mind that. You know, I kind of, especially with it being legal. Now, you know, of course I was discriminated the shit out of myself but fucking that. You know, what are you gonna do to me now? Um, but yeah, it's like that's the one part I would like to give up is Guilty pleasure.
