It's Saturday night.

Speaker 1:

And you know last week was a big SNL 50th anniversary. It was a good episode it was it had the music, music, the best musical artist and they had the best, some of the best sketches and I thought one I didn't see it until this weekend. I didn't get to say all of us going back and watching it. They had one skit with, uh, eddie murphy, will ferrell, and who else was in there wasn't tracy, uh oh, keenan thompson, yeah, yeah, jason sudeikis, yeah and those are some of my favorite.

Speaker 1:

They're so funny. That was a good one With bigger head yeah. Yeah, I think he put on. Will Ferrell did some shorts and nobody saw them until the skit. They were so short, oh yeah.

Speaker 2:

So what it was, was they were doing, the? What is it Scared Straight.

Speaker 1:

Scared, straight.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, yeah, they were trying to intimidate the rough 14, 15-year-olds and then so they were doing a good job, but they were doing it in like, wasn't it like songs they were doing?

Speaker 1:

They were going back over their childhood and how tough it was, and one of them was like Harry Potter.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1:

When I was little, I was an orphan and I was raised by elves, that's right. He was basically going back over the movie Elf.

Speaker 2:

Elf, yeah, yeah, and he is, so he's tall. He is hey Siri. How tall is Will Ferrell? I'm going to say 6'2". I'm taller.

Speaker 4:

Will Ferrell is 6'4".

Speaker 2:

Whoa 6'4", that's a big old man.

Speaker 1:

Okay. So anyway, entertainment Weekly put out a special issue rating the top 30 SNL actors and actresses of all time, going back from day one Not the special guest host, but the ones who've actually appeared on the show. And looking at the top ten, I agree with some of them, but some I think I would have put in the top ten. But then again, who do you take out? What about you? Who's your favorite SNL actors and actresses of all time?

Speaker 2:

probably kristen wigg I love her.

Speaker 1:

She's so funny and she didn't make the top 10 on their list I know, but she is so funny and she had so many characters that she did I know I would take out phil hartman okay, I agree take out gilda radner she was good.

Speaker 1:

I think she's probably there because she was one of the first original members she's good, but she's not as good as wigg was funnier. Yeah, I do too. I think amy poehler was funnier and I don't like dana carrie yeah I don't think he's funny I'm sorry, I should have fixed that. That should be dan and carvey. I mean dan and carvey. Let me fix that. Yeah, you are correct. I was thinking that he had a bunch of car he did a lot with. He's dead now Church Lady? No, he's not dead.

Speaker 2:

No, not him. The guy that he did a lot of skits with, chris Farley, yeah he did man? My brain is trying to. It's like burning. Can you smell it burning?

Speaker 1:

I didn't know that was you.

Speaker 2:

That's my wheels turning. That was.

Speaker 1:

Prickett, that came in.

Speaker 2:

No, that was my brain trying to get to start working.

Speaker 1:

So the top ten? Would you agree? Eddie Murphy was the best. No, no. Who would you say is the best? Kristen Wiig, will Ferrell, will Ferrell, I agree.

Speaker 2:

I really think he is. I love Eddie Murphy. I think he's hilarious. But Will Ferrell, oh he's funny.

Speaker 1:

He had so many characters he did oh, he's funny, he didn't have so many characters. He did Mm-hmm, like with the cheerleaders.

Speaker 4:

Yes, I forget the name of what they were.

Speaker 3:

I'm going to skip.

Speaker 1:

But it was him. And what was her name? It wasn't Sherry O'Terry, was it?

Speaker 2:

Mm-mm. It was Sherry O'Terry it was yeah, and it was Spartan cheerleaders. Spartan cheerleaders, yeah, yes, they were good that was funny, but my three.

Speaker 1:

Bill Murray was one of my all-time favorites because he was good on the show. Then he went on to do some of my favorite movies Caddyshack, stripes, and I put Bill Murray, will Ferrell and Jason Sudeikis. Jason was such a good character actor. Then he's gone on to do well like Ted Lasso.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

He's so good.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I loved Kate McKinnon. She hasn't got that big hit yet, but her alien skits are so funny they're so funny.

Speaker 1:

Yes that's probably one of the best skits on SNL to me, Because you know the one sitting next to her.

Speaker 2:

I haven't seen her do this in rehearsal yeah.

Speaker 1:

And she surprises them with it.

Speaker 2:

Have you ever watched an SNL rehearsal?

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

It's like nothing, like the show, no not even close it's so dry they just go through the lines.

Speaker 1:

You read it.

Speaker 2:

And then no costumes, no costumes, and so when they go in, I can see why they break up. I can see why they do too.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, According to Entertainment Weekly, the top ten of all time. Number ten is Dana Carvey. Nine Kate McKinnon Eight John Belushi. I agree, I think Chris Farley should have been in the top ten somewhere.

Speaker 2:

Oh yeah, for sure.

Speaker 1:

Number seven Dan Aykroyd, will Ferrell. Number six Gilda Radner. Number five Bill Hader. Number four Bill Murray. Number three Phil Hartman, too, and Eddie Murphy. So if you want to vote on yours, go to our Facebook page and let us know who you like the best.

Speaker 2:

Like Tina Hassan, she says Steve Martin. That's a good one.

Speaker 1:

But he never was a member.

Speaker 2:

He was just a guest. He was on there a lot as a guest host, but Tina Fey was also very good. Amy Poehler I loved Amy Poehler, love her in Parks and Rec and Baby Mama. They did a lot of movies together didn't they, they're best friends.

Speaker 1:

Check it. They did a lot of movies together, didn't they? They're best friends, so check it out, let us know what you think.

Speaker 3:

All right, 617. Mornings with Barry and Holly here on Alabama's country, giant WQSB, you know.

Speaker 1:

But that's okay. Things you need to know. February the 24th we're into the last few days of the month, Then another month is already gone.

Speaker 2:

The last Monday of February. Wow, and today is National Tortilla Chip Day. Yum, love tortilla chips. Yes, probably one of my favorite snacks.

Speaker 1:

Do you like the thick crunchy ones or like the thin crispy?

Speaker 2:

ones Like the thin crispy ones.

Speaker 1:

Some of the restaurants you can tell. They put like a little butter on them, then they toast them a little bit.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

Oh yeah.

Speaker 2:

Like Chili's, has some really good, never had them from there julia has my favorite because they come out warm, yes, but if I'm buying them at the store it's the cantina style is my favorite. So the top things to dip tortilla chips is number one. Salsa. Number two cheese dip, especially like rotel dip, yum, yes, yes. Or white queso, either one. Number three buffalo chicken dip. I can make a mean buffalo chicken dip. Really, you need to back that up. Number four, French onion dip and number five, ranch.

Speaker 1:

I just think salsa good, fresh salsa is good. Guacamole is always good with it too.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I would love guacamole. I would take the cheese dip if it wasn't so Patting. Yeah it, I would take the cheese dip if it wasn't so, patting, yeah, it sticks to me, it stays with me. And here's a little something extra California has a state fish fabric and even an official slug.

Speaker 1:

Really An official state slug.

Speaker 2:

Yes.

Speaker 1:

I didn't know, there was more than one. I didn't know.

Speaker 2:

Well, yeah, and soon the legendary Bigfoot may receive a title.

Speaker 1:

In California.

Speaker 2:

Yep State Assembly member Chris Rogers has proposed that Bigfoot becomes the state's official cryptid.

Speaker 1:

What is a cryptid?

Speaker 2:

It's creatures that have been seen but whose existence has not been confirmed, and his bill needs 21 votes to pass.

Speaker 1:

I don't know Like Loch Ness Monster sort of yeah yeah. Abominable Snowman. Abominable Snowman Bigfoot.

Speaker 2:

Bigfoot yeah.

Speaker 1:

Cryptid. I've never heard that word before.

Speaker 2:

Why would they do that, though? Why would they do that? Bigfoot is the.

Speaker 1:

I'll be honest, I thought it was more of a southern thing.

Speaker 2:

I didn't realize Big. I thought it was in the South.

Speaker 1:

I think Alabama needs to get on this and stop this before California makes it the official cryptid. It needs to be ours.

Speaker 2:

Do they snipe hunt across the United States? I bet they don't. Only in the South.

Speaker 1:

Snipes are rare, very rare, yeah. So if you ever get the chance to go snipe hunting, say yes, I've never been, I've been once.

Speaker 2:

You went, I did you got. You went, I did, you got invited?

Speaker 1:

I sure did. Who invited you? I think it's my brothers. They did all kinds of stuff to me, yeah yeah sorry about that. Two days later they come back and got me.

Speaker 2:

They left you out there by yourself pretty much, oh my gosh well, here's some things to think about. I've learned that if you want someone to call you back, yeah, all you have to do is get in the shower.

Speaker 1:

That is so true. You'll sit there and wait and wait. Okay, I've got to get in the shower. No, as soon as I get in the shower, they're going to call in. Yes, they do.

Speaker 2:

Have you ever carried your phone in the shower with you?

Speaker 1:

Not in the shower, I have no.

Speaker 2:

I mean just put it on a shelf.

Speaker 1:

Oh, okay, I was wondering, is it waterproof? No, hit. Skype or Zoom by mistake.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, don't answer that FaceTime.

Speaker 1:

No.

Speaker 2:

Or maybe you should, I don't know.

Speaker 1:

I don't know, depends on who's calling.

Speaker 2:

Depends. But I have been waiting on like a doctor's office or a lab result or a test result or school stuff.

Speaker 1:

Or you or me. I'll wait 30 hours for you to message back and then finally I decide okay, I'm getting a shower. Then you message, said hey, call me now no, it can wait, whatever it can wait like 15 minutes.

Speaker 2:

If you think about it, you're only in the shower for like 15 minutes. That depends. Well, I guess it does yeah, how old you are yeah, that's true. 16 year olds take forever, I do. And then here's something else I got suspended from instagram over the weekend. Whoa, Whoa. What'd you do? Well, I was going through everyone's food pics and I would post the calories in each food and for some reason, nobody wanted to be my friend anymore.

Speaker 1:

Special Loves. Rotel Cheese Dubs 2,000 calories per bite.

Speaker 2:

Just kidding. I support you. I love it. I love the food 6.27.

Speaker 3:

Mary and Holly on Alabama's Country, Giant WQSB.

Speaker 1:

Oh, by the way, we'll put up another later, r2 coming up in just a second, but Holly's pile of stories. Captain America had a huge drop after week one, but it still, you're telling me, was the biggest movie of the weekend.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, still number one. It had a 68% drop in its second weekend at the box office, but it's still at number one with 28 million dollars. The monkey came in at number two with 14.2 million I'm sorry. I've seen the trailer and I'm just gonna have to pass on the monkey and then paddington, peru I'm gonna skip that one too.

Speaker 1:

Six and a half million probably enough watching that one on streaming probably and what was the cute movie that this weekend you had on? Mayor was watching this. She loved it. It was very cute. I can't think of what it was, but it was one that I'll think of. But it's recommended because you liked it too. I don't know, I don't remember, I don't remember. Yeah, I know, I don't know.

Speaker 2:

The upcoming Survivor 50th season will put the power in the hands of the fans. They're giving the viewers the ability to vote on key elements of the game. Categories include idols or no idols, final four making fire keep it or lose it, and more.

Speaker 1:

That's weird, why I can see in the mirror behind me. There's three birds staring to the window at me on the parallel line up there. They're looking right at me.

Speaker 2:

Can you see it? Yeah, what are they going to do?

Speaker 1:

They're saying, hey, do you know what the blank is? Type it in I don't have any fingers.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, give us an A.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, that is where I can see them, and they're like just staring right at us. They're right there on the parallel line, right there, see them. They.

Speaker 2:

Oh, I can't say that, Sorry. Anyway, a Charizard-shaped hot Cheeto is now at auction and the highest bid is over $4,000. Why?

Speaker 1:

It makes me feel stupid now that I've eaten all my Cheetos too quickly. I should have stopped and examined them closer.

Speaker 2:

Speaking of Cheetos, we have a taste test coming up at 810. Yes, we have Flaming Hot Dill Pickle Crunchy.

Speaker 1:

Cheetos, those have to be good. So have you seen the?

Speaker 2:

cheeto we're talking about here in question. Well, it's actually called a cheetah zard. It looks like charizard it really does the bleeding, the bidding, uh taking place in golden. What's that mean? I don't know. It's set to end on march 1st on golden.

Speaker 1:

Oh, must be like an auction site oh, oh, okay.

Speaker 2:

2017,. A Cheeto shaped like the gorilla Harambe sold for $100,000. Oh, my goodness, I wonder what that Cheeto's doing right now.

Speaker 1:

I don't. It's probably on somebody's fireplace, mantle Look at Charizard, though it does.

Speaker 2:

It does look like a Charizard.

Speaker 1:

But would you have stopped in your bag of Cheetos and said, whoa, can't eat this? One Kind of looks like one of the Pokemon.

Speaker 2:

No, I just would have ate it.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, because it's got a lot of edges Super crunchy.

Speaker 2:

I don't think that I examine my Cheetos before they go into the mouth.

Speaker 1:

I'm going to have to now because this one may bring somebody over $4,000 over one Cheeto.

Speaker 2:

It does look like a Charizard it really does.

Speaker 1:

If you want to see the picture, look on our Facebook page 4,000.

Speaker 2:

4,000. That's amazing.

Speaker 1:

You know, 653 birthdays are next.

Speaker 3:

Mornings with Barry and Holly here on Alabama's country giant WQSB.

Speaker 1:

Morgan Wallen and Smile. 736 sunshine today, so does this weather make you smile a little bit more than last week?

Speaker 2:

It does for most people.

Speaker 1:

Not you.

Speaker 2:

I love the cold.

Speaker 1:

I can't help it, but you couldn't even get outside and function.

Speaker 2:

Did you hear me complain one time? Yes, when.

Speaker 1:

I don't know, but I'm sure you did.

Speaker 2:

Did.

Speaker 1:

I, I'm sure you did- when. Because everybody else was.

Speaker 2:

They did, but did I?

Speaker 1:

No, Nope sure didn't, we're shipping you to Alaska.

Speaker 2:

I love it.

Speaker 1:

We're shipping you to where Elf was filmed.

Speaker 2:

Isn't that where the sun is down for like 23 hours a day?

Speaker 1:

Some parts of the year it is.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

Alaska. There's like times yeah, there's times when the sun doesn't go down.

Speaker 2:

I don't think that my mental health could handle 24 hours of sunshine or 24 hours of dark.

Speaker 1:

It'd be tough.

Speaker 2:

It'd be tough.

Speaker 1:

I don't think I could do it, because I need to sleep, I can't take naps, I don't take naps, I have to have it dark, but then again, if it's too dark all the time, then that's depressing.

Speaker 2:

No, I'll sleep me in a little nappy now.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I couldn't do that, but anyway, it's going to be a beautiful day, beautiful week. It looks like the only chance of rain is let's see Wednesday, I think. Let's see Wednesday night. Let's see Wednesday night. Thursday slight chance of rain. That is it, and it's going to be warming up to low 70s before the week. The Old Dominion Contest Sounder, I will tell you this. It's coming up next hour, sometime between 8 and 9. Listen for the special sounder when you hear it be caller 10. We won't say a word. It's a special sounder. Let me show you this is what you're listening for. That is what a boat that day. The river was long. That is what you're listening for. Don't call now. Not right now, but sometime next hour. We'll play it again. We won't say a word. They call her 10 when you hear it and you're going to win a pair of tickets to see Old Dominion in Huntsville coming up in June. And they don't even go on sale until this weekend.

Speaker 4:

Come on man.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, we were talking earlier about. People say the things that will make them mad, they're tired of, and one of them is to me is people with these lawsuits.

Speaker 4:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

These silly lawsuits like this one. This guy is looking to get him a lawyer, which I'm sure he'll have no trouble finding one, but a TikTok user. He's mad because he opened up an Uncrustable. He opened it and there was a piece of crust still on it.

Speaker 2:

No, and he is upset. It can't be true.

Speaker 1:

Yes, he said I'm sorry if it says Uncrustable, there should be no crust. He says, um, he's looking for a lawyer. He's tried to contact Uncrustables and can't find a phone number. One user on TikTok said hey, I guess this is why you have crust issues.

Speaker 2:

Ah, see what they did there. I see what they did there.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, but anyway there's a little bit of a brown on the edge. I'm looking at the picture on our Facebook page. If this upsets you, then this poor guy. It doesn't take a lot to upset him if that will make him mad and ruin his day.

Speaker 2:

No, and why would you let that ruin your day? Honestly Like why.

Speaker 1:

It's a little tiny piece of crust. Why can't you take your little tiny fingers and pull that tiny piece of crust off and move on, instead of getting mad at Uncrustables and Smuckers? Smuckers has yet to respond. I don't blame Smuckers, I wouldn't respond. You would think a judge down the road, if he ever comes before a judge, will laugh at it and say no, I'm not going to listen to this. This case is thrown out. That is silly.

Speaker 2:

Senator, where did they come up with the name for this? Crust Crust, crust, crust. Think about that.

Speaker 1:

I don't know. Well, now, when you picture crust Crust, you picture like the edge of a bread.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I do, yeah, the edges.

Speaker 1:

The crust. Uh-huh, I don't much like the crust on my sandwich, but I'll still eat it.

Speaker 2:

Uh, I don't like it because it's like um dry.

Speaker 1:

You know, yeah, and it's hard to get the peanut butter or jelly to hang on to it don't they say it's nutritious though?

Speaker 2:

isn't it supposed to be I don't know, it's bread.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, it's probably not the best for you probably not, but yeah, I do eat them in crustables I love them crustables. I think it's genius what they did. You know they probably get this machine. That just you know makes some and cuts the crust off and it's somewhere along the way.

Speaker 2:

The machine is just like this, a centimeter off, and it left a big crust on there you know what I would do if I opened up my crestable and it had the audacity to have a quarter of an inch of crust eat it I would too.

Speaker 1:

I just ate it I wouldn't say a word you wouldn't even see it on facebook.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I wouldn't be like look at this, look at this crust I can't believe.

Speaker 1:

My whole day is ruined on my uncrustable and to think that's like opening up a hot pocket in the pocket being empty I mean, are we supposed to clutch our pearls like? I don't know. I mean, if you had a hot pocket and there's nothing in the hot pocket, would you be upset? I wouldn't be upset, but I'd be like whoa, this is weird I'd go whoa empty pocket, yeah, whoa, oh, it's hot, but there's nothing in the pocket there's hot, it's a hot plain pocket it's like the little pizza rolls.

Speaker 1:

What if you get bite in the window? There's nothing in there, just air dough roll it's not gonna ruin my day.

Speaker 2:

No, it's gonna happen I mean, I've had stuff like that happen, like you know. Oh, I love the holy grail when you get an order of french fries and they put a onion ring in there. Yeah, on accident yes because it's floating around in the basket.

Speaker 1:

It's probably somebody who gets mad over that probably they're saying that I didn't order onion rings. I ordered french fries in there. Is that one onion ring?

Speaker 2:

It's an extra little prize for you.

Speaker 1:

They're probably allergic to onions. They'll file a lawsuit. Yeah, probably, or vice versa. You order onion rings, you get one french fry, I don't know.

Speaker 2:

I feel like sometimes you can't do anything right.

Speaker 1:

Sometimes you just gotta be, just eat it. That's a life lesson. Eat the crust and shut up.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, that's the quote of the day. Quote of the day Eat the crust and shut up.

Speaker 1:

Yes, hush, there you have it Roll over and go to sleep.

Speaker 2:

Yes, just eat it, don't post it on Facebook, don't do a lawsuit.

Speaker 1:

No, don't be that guy, don't be that guy, not the guy that does that Uncrustable lawsuit guy. The old crust Budweiser will never do a commercial. We salute you, uncrustable lawsuit guy. That's never going to happen.

Speaker 2:

No, we don't. Good morning to everybody in the United States, except for the guy that's suing Uncrustables.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, we do not salute you, we do not.

Speaker 2:

We do not wish you good morning.

Speaker 1:

There you have it, 6-7-42.

Here he comes. He's tired about turning on the heat in his bat cave. He's tired of this. He's ready. Will's in the building. Good morning Will. How are you?

Speaker 4:

Good morning. I'm glad to see the sunshine and ready for the warm weather.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, it's much better week. This is good walking weather. Holly, I'm trying to tell her this I'm getting out of walking today. You going to go?

Speaker 2:

Yeah, jalen Brooks, what Sand Mountain Sam, oh yeah. It's getting warmer.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I'm saying this is good walking weather.

Speaker 4:

Yeah, it is. Y'all go get some pickleball paddles.

Speaker 2:

The wife and I was like I need to ask Will if these are okay to use. But I also saw that they have pink pickleballs.

Speaker 4:

Yeah, whoa, we've got a few. I mean, wives' favorite color is pink, so we've got to have pink balls. Well, how good are y'all? Not too good, I'm not good, yeah, but we're out there practicing just about every day. Is Ariel pretty good yeah?

Speaker 2:

So it's like extra large table tennis.

Speaker 4:

Basically Miniature tennis, big table tennis.

Speaker 2:

In comparison to okay, that makes sense.

Speaker 1:

So tennis and ping pong had a baby, so it's slower.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, it's slower, slower pace.

Speaker 4:

Well, it depends on who you're playing, but yeah, basically slower pace and it's more compact, so you're not having to have as much impact on your knees and ankles and stuff like that.

Speaker 1:

Ah, that makes sense.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

So you're picturing tennis and ping pong, having a child, and that's what you get.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, that's what you get, man. I don't know if I'd be any good at that, but I would give it a go.

Speaker 1:

I'd be any good at that, but I would drink it to go, we'll turn it into full contact before it's over Okay.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, oh man. You want to meet me up, we'll do the beating up. Oh, oh, I see, I see, I see, we. You got to have more confidence here we All right Knowledge nuggets.

Speaker 1:

What do we got here?

Speaker 4:

All right, 37 37% of restaurant servers say they hate it when you claim a table before it's cleaned off. Yes, yeah, that seems like you're kind of rushing.

Speaker 1:

Quit rushing. I've seen some looks and I've seen people do this.

Speaker 2:

I didn't realize they upset them that much. But I understand there are times when we've got to leave a table dirty in order to take care of our other tables and you think, okay, I'm going to get to that as soon as I can so we can get it full. You want full tables, you want more money. But sometimes you've got to get caught up and it takes like five minutes and I can't stand when people are standing at the door saying they've got clean tables. I don't know why we can't be seated Because we're short staffed, ma'am.

Speaker 1:

Gotcha. And we're running on a tight leash, so does it bother you to clean the table around? Somebody who's already jumped in jumped the gun and is sitting there. Yeah, it's like God Does it make you want to wipe crumbs in their lap? Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 2:

Probably spill it. Oh oops, there went your water. Oh no.

Speaker 4:

I could be mean about that, like just bring them a bill, like if they sit down with a dirty table just bring them a bill and say hey, you know. Oh sorry.

Speaker 1:

I didn't know you were the one sitting here, yeah.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I mean if there's a dirty table and you've got waiters, waitresses, servers, just standing around with their hands on their hips, that's one thing. But if you see them running around and they're dashing everywhere and getting drinks and putting in appetizers and cleaning up a mess, it's just kind of rude. Be respectful, just wait.

Speaker 1:

Just wait your turn. You peel the next one out. They're going to let you know when it's time, oh yeah.

Speaker 2:

Just slow down, honey, you're going to get to eat. You're going to get to eat, you're going to get to sit down, just let them settle. Yeah, more than 90% of Americans say they no longer answer a phone when it's an unknown number.

Speaker 1:

I'm with you, I don't anymore. No, I don't, I don't anymore.

Speaker 2:

Number one. If I don't have your number, I don't want to talk to you.

Speaker 1:

Really, the only time I will, because sometimes these phone are smart. Somehow they put up like a name up there and it says I got one the other day said saint jude children's research hospital. Oh yeah, but it was like a local number. I thought saint jude won't be calling me, so I entered to see who it was and sure enough, it was one of those scams scams with insurance and I don't know how they got that name put on the phone number.

Speaker 2:

No, didn't freak you out. How do they do that?

Speaker 4:

oh yeah, I get a lot from atmore, atmore, alabama what's that it's a city. Yeah, atmore. And then have y'all seen the guy on tiktok that, uh, does this spam against the people that try to spam him. Oh, that's funny. Yeah, so he'll go in and he will reverse spam them and go in there and unlock their bank accounts and stuff and threaten them and they start freaking out. Oh no, good move, yeah. So he's turned it around on them to where he can hack them and be able to. Good move, yeah.

Speaker 2:

I like that. That is a good move. I like that. Yeah, I don't answer them because most of the time it's either somebody trying to collect the bill from me and I'm not ready to pay them. You are correct or it's spam, so it's one of the two.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

You know, 11% of men would give up their best friend for $1.5 million.

Speaker 1:

So that's what it would take.

Speaker 2:

That's what it takes for a man.

Speaker 1:

You would sell me for 50 bucks? Yeah, probably yes you. For 50 bucks? Yeah, probably yes you would.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I'm convinced maybe a hundred, hundred oh well, thank you I can do a lot of things with a hundred dollars that's true.

Speaker 1:

Steak dinner, yeah but so they're saying 1.5 million is what it's going to take yeah, that's what they say yeah for 11 percent of men.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, that's a small amount.

Speaker 1:

Still, one out of 10 men will do this to you. Best friends, be on the lookout.

Speaker 2:

What would it take for you?

Speaker 1:

1.5 is a good amount of money.

Speaker 4:

So you're the one you could buy their trust back.

Speaker 1:

I could give them $100,000 and say here be my friend again, come on.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, come on, man, just kidding, let's go to the movies. What?

Speaker 1:

about you, I know.

Speaker 4:

My best friend's, my wife, so I couldn't do it.

Speaker 2:

I wouldn't do that you can't put a value on that. I agree, I don't. I'd sell you down the river.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I know In a heartbeat. What's the least amount you would take?

Speaker 2:

A thousand, a thousand, maybe an Alani drink, oh my gosh. Just one, alani, today I think there's one to your left right now, waiting on you. Where.
