I should have that memorized by now and I just don't two years now. Yeah, I am. I, my brain refuses to commit that to memory. Uh, and then we had, uh, well the next one is, uh, the 19th that will be at the cozy lounge. Uh, and they are really kind of dorked about us being there. And not only that, they're named for one of the best burgers in Southeastern Michigan. Yeah. They were like one of the, yeah, the one of the top 10 burgers, right? Like, Oh my God, they're so cool. I agree. And I would like James [inaudible] from Mabel gray who was like, I think he's James Beard. He's one of the top chefs in, yeah. Speaker 2: He like swears by their chicken biscuits. So like that honestly, God for, it's a little dive bar. It's a little townie bar, but they've transformed that they can do like kind of a cool little place, great little place. And we're looking forward to it. And, and you know, and then the last week we had our event at Woodbridge pub. Um, really? Well, that was the first time I remember being there. I haven't been there before, but I haven't been since my Wayne state days. Oh yeah. And, and like that place like just brought back tons of, yeah. It was phenomenal. Like love that place, love to go back. Everybody was like, it couldn't have been happier and it was yet another one. That's like, a lot of the people that showed up were like, Oh my God, heard about this place. Never been here. Really digging it. Speaker 2: And they have decent sipping room and you know, and they have food as long as you don't want the chicken wings. No chicken wings. Yeah. Chicken wings are gone. I was in the mode, but then I had, I ordered that chicken one tons. That sounds weird. All over to that. And it's chicken egg rolls. It's like you take the bottom of chicken soup and you slab in an egg roll and it was actually pretty good anyway. Yeah. Looking forward to it. Looking forward to cozy. It should be good. Um, and then, Hey, uh, just on a personal note, I would be remiss if I didn't mention, um, Hey, rest in peace. Kelly Tucker, uh, great guy. Uh, local, uh, I mean he, he did, uh, stuff with us back in the raw radio X days. Uh, he was a sound guy over at the Ritz downtown at st Andrews. Speaker 2: He did stuff out at diesel. Uh, Kate, one of our engineers actually went to graduated specs wait time. A lot of people touch a lot of lives. They, I was, uh, if you read his wall today, man, touching a lot of lives. Yeah. Great. Great guy. Gone too. Damn soon. Uh, so rest easy bro. So Honda, funny, yucky cheats. Nah, no show. Must go on, right. He would say the same thing. Don't cut the damn Mike. But one of the, uh, the funny race and I don't, one of the funniest tweets I've seen all week. Uh, basically I didn't even know that this was possible or this was a thing. Um, but basically it's an app powered car and this couple when basically in rural California on the mountain, like basically for a drive on the weekend. Yeah. And they lost cell signal cell coverage and their car Brecht. Speaker 2: And it got stuck literally in the middle of the shit's villain nowhere. That was the best day Heather. So car will not go. And I, I guess this is where we live now. Right? But here's the stupidest part. I'm like, wait a minute, you're tweeting. So the cell phone works. So the first tweet they answer their own like stupid question. They're like, it appears though I do not have enough cell service to start. My only means of transportation. I do have enough to live tweet my struggle. So thanks for tuning in. I'll be here. And definitely like again, I was stupid. Like you can send out tweets but you know, what does the car need? Like just bandwidth requirements. Got it. Who died? Yeah. That's one of the dumbest things I did. Like I, I was going back to like, the one thing I could think of was like the old stories about like you don't know far superstar, uh, that had like the GPS tracking devices and cutouts cars, the low jacks and all that stuff on financed vehicles. Speaker 2: Yeah. So just, yeah, just the bizarre I, yeah, I, it's just one of those weird things that like you don't really think through well they would think there's not full coverage everywhere. You, you know, I don't know. It did remind me though. I watched the worst photo. That seems like a pretty common shortsighted oversight of it. It, there isn't, there isn't a cell, there isn't a cell company that says a hundred percent coverage. Like they all say 99.9% or whatever. They, you know, there's always some weird pocket and weirdo they prominent use sprint or something. It's Bryant. Yeah, it does remind me of the worst. I think one of the worst movies I've ever seen in my life this weekend and that saved something and I should've known, I should've known better. It was called cell. And you know, I think I've seen like the trailer for this, but I haven't actually watched it. Speaker 2: I love me some John Q SAC, he's one of my top of all time, who's coming to town in April. He is for the free. I tweeted them to see if he'd come on the show. That's not going to happen. But whatever wishful thinking. We've got Anthony Michael Hall, my Mizel, you know, I'll shoot for the moon at this point. I'm Samuel L. Jackson was in it and uh, it was kind of like the all 11% on rotten tomatoes. I know. I go, there's no way it can be that cause it, was he tired of the cell phones on his head? No, no. I didn't get that bad. But like it was a, and then it was like 18% audience score. I go, there's no way it could be that bad. And it starts off like put, wait. Oh, but wait. Yeah. So he starts out like John Q six in the airport and all of a sudden, like, everyone that's on their cell phone is like, uh, killing people. Speaker 2: Like right. Like, it's almost like Dawn of the dead wood Ving right. We're in the beginning. It's like that cool scene where like the outbreak starts and like the town's on fire and all this, so they go out in a remote remote, whatever. And if you were like open up a cell phone like so like cell phones became that VHS tape in the rain. Then the people open up their models and like get cell signal like [inaudible] and like then they like, yeah it ended there. Basically a guy handsome, they find this diner and the guy hands him like a flip phone. He says, dial this number when you need to save. And like at the end of the movies, like he calls the number and then he's like in this ring of people around the cell tower and now they're all going to [inaudible] and that was it, dude. Speaker 2: I swear to God I could go. That couldn't have been it. And the credits are rolling. I'm like, I sat through this whole, I don't know, this sounds like a good cheesy movie date night. It's not the watch one of those. Like what have you heard the MST three K? No, I was gonna say my standard. No, because it wasn't, it wasn't like the Perato movies and all those stupid we, me and my wife watched some dumb one where like there was a beast in the sand and have you touched the sand? I was like, well floors, lava and you eat and, and at the end it came out of the sand. Was it the Sarlacc? I guess I'm going to stick with my standard cheesy date movie. Then a good snow. What's that? Oh, you haven't seen dead snow. Is it worse than Jack Frost? It's a, not that Michael Keaton one the horrible where the snowman kills people, but nobody thinks to light a fricking match Nazi zombies up in Norway. Speaker 2: Come on. It's amazing. Nazi zombies. No, I did see the one that was the has a sequel red dead two red versus dead, which is Russian zombies versus Nazi zombies. What was the one Nazi Nazi midgets and later hosing or something. And there was like a movie that was like, I'd show it to him. I had to click on and I lasted about eight minutes. This is the worst thing I've ever seen in my life. That's outstanding. I'm kind of a weird week for hackers. Yes. Week. So, and I did, I found this interesting. Um, so the same hacker ran two exploits, um, against [inaudible] and managed to walk away. Well, what's, for those that don't know what's, what's DFI? It's a decentralized finance. So it's, you know, like, uh, all the cryptocurrency stuff that you got it. Got it. Got it. Um, and it's one of the, one of the, you know, the trading houses and walked away with over $1 million in Ethereum over the course of two transactions. Speaker 2: But see, now explain to me this dumb dumb guy in me says, don't you, where do you cash that out if you stole it because it's tagged, it's marked,...
