ACHP Episode 549 Where Did We Park ?

Transcript

This will also be B roll.

Oh no, this will be in the show,

so I'll cut the little piece out

in between.

Welcome to a Cigar Hustler

podcast where cigars are just

the starting point.

Join me, Mike Palmer with Mike

Stefankevich and Triple G as we

dive into the latest cigar

industry news, sports, current

events, business, and whatever

crazy stories are making

headlines.

Whether you're a seasoned cigar

smoker or just looking for

entertaining conversation,

expect honest opinions, plenty

of laughs, and a few unexpected

detours along the way.

On today's show, Gator Land is

evacuated.

Does the punishment fit the

crime?

Trump visits Bangladesh, don't

put it in the Jelly.

Then in cigars, Valadio has a

new stick and all that supreme

lefage pays off.

Then Ada Bay makes traveling

easier.

And then a what's the score for

Wednesday?

But first, Mikey, how do we get

some of that chapter pod sway?

Tell him, Greg.

Again, you give $20 to my

farmer, you give $20 to my

brother, and they give you a

cup.

By the way, do you want a second

cup?

Apparently I need another cup.

Free shipping need.

Another cup Well delivery is

here.

Too bad you.

Didn't buy them at the same

time.

You would have got the 2nd 140%

off.

When you buy chapter pod.com,

buy one, get the 2nd 140% off.

Yeah, there's that and back to

you.

I'm just kidding, there's still

2 lingering BD PS out there man.

Sorry buddy.

It's not going to happen.

It's not going to happen.

I don't think so.

They don't love you enough.

They don't love you.

This is what a face of man's

not.

Love maybe, maybe they're just

trying to be nice to me and not

make me wear the outfit on.

You.

I don't think so.

I'm.

Going with that.

I've got some good comments

today.

Let me check them out for you.

Let me do this.

Let me do this.

Let me see.

Everybody.

You guys, Oh.

Wait, Phil, when you're on, when

you're talking, the camera's

supposed to be on, Yeah?

This is me looking at my phone

and this would be nicer to see

your reaction.

I look real good with.

The Slurpee with the.

My wife said I had to drink like

this or she taking my coffee

that.

Is not what I sound like this?

Is what I count like what did.

I sound like this is my little

special hello to her.

OK.

Like Carol Burnett pulling her

ear.

At Bruce Cox 8216, Phil's

missing from the show and Palmer

has become the new whipping boy

allegedly.

Bring back the old intro.

These new ad read descriptions

have lost the charm and

personality of the show.

Oh, and Mike, time to lay off

the Adderall.

I don't take Adderall.

Just so you know, that wasn't

very nice.

There's a lot of negative

critiquing right there.

Bruce, nobody likes when you

make changes.

You got to understand you, you

got to hit him with a compliment

and then hit him with the

negativity.

It's.

Called the I Cantina approach.

You know you're.

Looking very muscly lately.

Is it the Adderall?

And is that right?

You're looking very muscly.

Are you taking?

Are you taking?

Are you on drugs?

And that's why you're you're

being aggressively attacking

Paul.

You were aggressively attacking

Palmer for the last episode

though.

Yeah, I felt it.

Last too, yesterday was just.

Continued even after recording

stopped.

It went all the way upstairs.

It was nice.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

It happens.

OK, Bruce, thank you so much for

commenting.

Let's see here T money.

I love how Palmer thinks 3

messages is all through the

show.

It's only in our show T.

No more presents for him.

Also, it's federal agent.

Go ahead boys.

Gang up on Palmer all you want.

That's right.

He's a federally.

Oh, that's the Mexicans.

I know, OK.

What do you with a whole lot of

flipping going on over?

There at David, Hasselhoffman

says, does this kid not have any

feeling in his fingers?

How do you poke it through your

old finger?

Yeah, man, I don't.

I don't know, buddy.

I don't know.

And he also said I have a hard

time coming up with funny

comments when Phil is Mia.

All right, No Phil again today.

Yeah, sorry.

No, Phil the.

Show was too serious without

Phil.

He's on the movie set again.

Brett Mercurio says we need

triple G Wednesdays.

How about triple G Thursdays?

You get both.

You get Wednesday and Thursday.

That's right.

You get the strings and the

guitar, right?

No.

Yeah, I don't.

What's?

That epileptic seizure with all

the flipping.

Data cache says WTF?

How much force do you need to

unplug a punch cutter?

Yeah, apparently a tremendous

amount of.

Work right through the finger.

Enough to go about 1/2 inch.

And it was not the right tool to

use.

To be honest, I don't know why

he was thinking that.

And.

I like that he held it on his

finger to push through.

Like, where did he think it was

going to go?

Yeah, well, you just, it's just

going to just right at the end

and then it won't go in.

Oh that's correct at CW6383 says

some of us are a tad OCD.

Mikey, what's he talking about?

The rearranging of the room, I'm

guessing.

Right.

How you wouldn't notice.

Got it.

Because when it when you enter

your home, you're completely

oblivious because your wife

takes care of everything.

But I pointed out that if

somebody moved your seat in your

car half an inch, you'd notice

it.

Yeah.

Yeah, I don't appreciate Greg

Triple.

G That was that was a little

aggressive.

I just finished that entire cup

of coffee.

I'm sorry.

You better calm down.

You better be nice to the money

maker or he'll take a break and

we'll see what happens to all of

you.

It's not going to be good and

let's see, tell us more team

money, said CW6383.

I saw one other 10 at Ruck is

Unchained.

The the mother thing I know, she

said was the mother thing.

Was this Keanu again?

You can't say any.

I can't.

I can't confirm.

No, he spelled it wrong.

We cannot confirm or deny the

the person involved in said

incident.

The impalement.

The impalement so.

Oh, and this was from on the

previous episode, but I needed

to state this 'cause it it says

at TX, but it's at Texas

Southpaw a recently placed of

purchase on the site and left a

note.

Thank you very much.

We appreciate you you're you are

a great person.

Movie titled spider man Michael

Keaton is home.

The villain was the Vulture.

OK, I.

Put all that up in the show.

Yeah.

Appreciate that.

If you want to hear your comment

read aloud on the show, just

comment below and then we may

potentially read out loud.

I think I just covered almost

all of them on that.

So, you know, sometimes you may

have a good chance, sometimes it

may be no.

But you know, comment below.

Next week we're going to do

another giveaway, but I'm going

to go back and then look at some

of the people that didn't bother

commenting because we didn't

give anything away.

And then I'm going to judge the

hell out of you.

So, and at this current moment,

we're going to go on with the

show.

Oh, Gatorland in Orlando was

forced to evacuate on Tuesday.

You want to guess why?

Fire.

Mine.

I'm going to say there was a

slew of little people.

They raided the entire alligator

Gatorland.

No, like hobbits, you were very

close.

I'm trying my best to sound as

stupid as possible when I'm

sitting in the chair.

He's trying to fill a boy.

He's.

Trying to fill a boy.

If you miss Phil, I'm just going

to be AI think what happened was

the rabbits came in and they

took over Gatorland.

All right, it was evacuated over

a reported bomb threat.

Orange County.

Sheriff's Office News 6

originally received a tip about

the evacuation from a viewer,

though the Orange County

Sheriff's Office said it was

working on gathering

information.

Meanwhile, News 6 community

correspondent Jana Mahala Mahala

Manola Manola Manola Manola She

went out to Gator Land around

4:00 PM to see what was going

on.

Upon arrival, she discovered

from people at the scene that

they've been evacuated into the

parking lot but weren't

initially told why.

Deputies later revealed that a

bomb threat had been reported,

which prompted the evacuation.

Our deputies conducted an

extensive search and did not

locate any bombs.

What kind of soul this

individual tries to put a bomb

threat on Gatorland?

I mean, what are we doing?

It seems to have an odd place to

pick.

Sorry, somebody's very bored.

Well, maybe they have some type

of axe to grind with.

Maybe it was the guy that got

the 50 Dimes for getting bit.

Oh, and now he's just against

alligators.

Doesn't like the Gators?

Oh, that could be.

Does he become like some type of

super villain Gator man or

something?

Yeah, right.

Just against Alligator.

I am the lizard.

Later Tuesday evening, Gatorland

released the following statement

about the incident.

Orlando received a bomb threat

this afternoon.

We immediately evacuated the

park, including remaining guests

and staff.

Park leaders worked with the

Orange County Sheriff's officers

secure the premises based on

their full inspection.

So how did they go out and

inspect the water area where all

they keep all the elegant?

They have a special Gator bomb

detectors and what, Yeah,

they've actually trained these

Gators to go in and sniff out

any type of C4 in type of

explosive.

They didn't use bomb sniffing

dogs because the alligator.

They borrowed that device that

the guy was trying to sell on.

The radioactive.

The radioactive Yeah.

Smart.

As a result of the clearance

given by the Sheriff's Office,

Gatorland will open tomorrow,

June 10th from 10:00 AM to 6:00

PM daily for summer extended

hours.

Like how they got that?

There's a little ad.

There's a little ad there.

and animals is always a top

priority.

The tortoise acquisitioners, I

don't know.

We've never been to Gatorland.

You should go.

She would like it.

They have turtles.

You like turtles?

Yeah, well, she likes turtles.

So they have a big lagoon thing

in the middle.

There's a guy goes out into this

little stand and they run

chickens across these ropes,

across the water, and Gators

jump 6 to 8 feet out of the

water to eat the.

Chicken.

Oh, that's nice.

And then the guy starts doing it

by hand or girl.

I guess it could be at this

point.

Yeah, let's not judge, you know.

Sexist.

Well, when I went there was a

guy, but they could be gross.

So the alligators actually, the

water is shallower than you

think, and the alligators use

their tail to push off from the

bottom.

And that's how they.

Jump a Roo, but there's a jumper

Roo.

It's the Jumper Roo, right?

Gatorland CEO and President Mark

information at this time and

6:00 PM.

Mention bomb, buy one, get the

second one 20% off today only.

All right, now this is a big

story hitting everywhere.

A Texas courtroom.

Oh my God, this week you're

going to talk about this one,

huh?

Yeah, I figured it would be a

good conversation for the show.

OK, that's fine.

Reached a verdict this week in a

case of Drew.

National attention has sparked

intense debate over

self-defense, school safety and

accountability. 19 year old

Carmelo Anthony was found guilty

of murder in the fatal stabbing

of 17 year old Austin Metcalf

during a high school track meet

in Frisco, TX and in April of

2025.

Following the conviction,

Anthony was sentenced to 35

years in prison.

According to prosecutors, what

should have been an ordinary day

competition turned tragic after

the altercation between the two

teenagers escalated into

violence.

Yeah, you got 35 years.

You got 35?

I'm unfamiliar with the story.

All right, there was a track

meet and it started raining.

The gentleman who lives Say, who

was just convicted went into the

tent of the other team like a

not a tent really.

But you know the other thing?

He was asked to leave several

times, didn't one kid pushed him

and then he stabbed the kid in

the heart and slice his

ventricle and the kid died.

It it went from shove to stab.

It says yeah the the fight went

for 6 minutes or the

altercation.

Yeah, fight fight will be an

exaggeration for what I read.

Wow, wow, crazy.

And these are kids. 17 these are

kids.

These are 100% kids, right?

Yeah.

So now the families and the

community is in a bit of an

uproar because the kid got 35

years, his life is over, he's

not in his future is going to be

something different now where

the other kid is dead.

Yep.

Yeah, yeah.

That's sad.

It is very sad.

Does the crime match punishment?

Because that's what you started

off with, your title?

Right.

That was that was the thing.

Yeah.

I mean, you got 35 years.

What do they?

He stabbed the kid.

You think 35 years is that's OK?

Like that's should have been the

punishment.

I'm OK with it.

You're OK with it?

Sure.

You think 35 years, Greg?

I mean, it's a kid, but he took

a physical altercation that was

just, you know, fists and cuffs

to a weapon to a point where he

took somebody's life.

That's correct.

I'm not saying that, you know,

I'm not asking.

He messed up big time, huge, big

time.

But the question is, it was 35

years the right penalty.

I mean, you can say yeah, I'm

going to say yeah.

I'm going to say yes.

I I disagree, I disagree.

I think it's too, I think it's

too much.

This kids, you know, we destroy

2 lives.

Like he's officially

institutionalized.

He's done.

Oh, his life is over.

Practically, yeah.

Well, it's called a life

sentence.

Right.

Well, but it's not a life

sentence, but it but it will

change his life. 35 years is a

life sentence.

When when he does get out, he is

not going to be the same person

his.

Trajectory is completely

changed.

No, he missed out on everything.

On everything.

So yeah, I mean, I don't think

it should have been 35 years.

What do you think is appropriate

for killing another person?

This is one of those ones where

it's it's hard to say.

I don't know where the line is.

Supposedly, halfway through,

he's available for parole. 17

years?

Yeah, 17.

I mean there is a super fine

line, right?

Because like, if it were like A5

on one type of situation and the

one had to use a weapon to stop

the potential from him being

beaten to death, sure, then it

can be self-defense without a

doubt.

Well, no, like, well, here's the

reality.

The reality is that we don't

know what went down.

We, we know what we've read from

the news articles and all these

other things.

And you could, you could assume

all types of things no matter

what perspective you want to

look at.

So if I just break it down to

the binary situation of I have a

kid who was in an altercation,

he pulled out a weapon and he

stabbed and killed the other

kid, What what do I think as an

individual should be the

punishment?

I don't know.

I think that maybe 15 years.

What if you know wholeheartedly

100% the individual with a knife

was the aggressor?

What if that is factual

information?

I'm still looking at the fact

that I don't know man.

I got a soft spot for kids, bro.

I look at him like, man, this

kid needed help.

Agreed, the kid totally needed

help, but you wouldn't be in

that situation if he was given

help.

And.

He yeah, so like I look at that

and that that bothers me, that

bothers me.

So then, you know, then I kind

of look at the situation, say

OK, how do I, how do we help

this kid?

Like there's nothing I can do

about the other kid, the other

kids gone.

And that's sad and that sucks.

But like destroying this kids

life and not helping him and

shoving him into the system for

35 years doesn't feel right to

me.

It feels like there's there had

there had to be.

There's got to be something

else.

Should there, you know, 15

years?

I don't know.

Should it be it?

Should it be a sizable

punishment?

Absolutely.

I'm not saying that that's the

case, but man, by the time that

kid gets out, well, he's going

to be, you know, he could be 60,

right?

Or, or damn near close to it,

something like that. 50

something years old, sure.

Older than me.

Sure.

I'm I'm completely

institutionalized.

Yeah.

You know, which isn't even

worse.

Right, so so we didn't fix

anything.

We didn't we didn't hell, we you

know, like as a society didn't

straighten anything out.

You just, you know, I don't

know, I like that's, that's what

I kind of look at, man.

I just I look at kids and kids

need help.

You you don't think that harsh

punishments keep people in line?

You don't think 15 years is a

harsh punishment?

That's fine, but whatever the

defining line is right?

But like there, there's a reason

why we have harsh punishment for

harsh crimes.

Yeah.

And this is, this is yeah, he,

but he's getting the maximum.

It's not like he went in and

said, hey, I'm going to stab

somebody today, right?

Well, he.

Did bring the knife to the

tractor.

OK, I agree with that.

Yeah, but you know, like.

The eyewitness accounts or

anything from 2 handed push to

one handed push.

Right.

So, so, OK, so it's fair to say

we don't know, right?

Right.

Supposedly he was asked to leave

15 different times by numerous

people inside the tent.

Well, that, but that bothers me

too.

Like, hey, it's raining out

idiots like, you know, OK, he's

the competition, calm down.

Like, we're like, like, so many

things went wrong here, right?

Like, like, who are the adults

in this situation?

And maybe they're not in the

tent.

I don't know.

But like, dude, if, if, if

you're my enemy on the field,

right?

You're not my enemy when the

field when the game's over.

I'm not hey, I'm gonna you know,

I'm I'm looking to RIP you

apart.

And like, it's our job as

parents and coaches to teach

that to kids.

Like, hey, he's not your enemy

right now.

Calm down.

It's raining out.

Like, relax.

I don't care what he said on the

field.

I don't care what he said to

you.

But.

What if the kid with the knife

actually did have the

perspective of enemy on the

field, enemy off the field, and

he went in there antagonizing

the situation because that was

his perspective.

Same situation.

Parents and coaches need to

educate him, hey, what are we

doing right?

Like I'm going to tell you right

now, if the mentalities RIP

their head off during the game,

RIP their head off, go right.

But guess what?

Afterward, game's over, right?

Game's done.

I'm not You have to teach a kid

to turn it off and still

realize, hey, you're just

working around your other peers.

So.

And it was track and field, so

it's not like it was an

aggressive type sporting event.

Tell that to Teddy.

That would be horrible if both

were competing in like shot put.

They don't look that big.

No.

No not big enough for Shaft but

but I can see her or javelin and

they just sword fight.

Sword fight.

So yeah, I don't know.

I don't know, feels like feels

like a lot feels like a lot to

me.

So it's a damn shame, man.

All the way around.

Nobody wins in that scenario

dude.

Agreed.

Sucks so can't believe you

brought that one up.

It's.

A national news.

And we're getting some nasty

comments on that one.

All right, I just sent you a

picture.

It goes with the next story.

Oh good.

Is it Shredder?

No, it's not Shredder in

Bangladesh.

Oh, is this, this is Greg's lady

boy with his Oh.

That is previous experience, the

Donald Trump Buffalo.

Look at this.

With his shock.

With his shock of golden hair

and trimmed 7000 kilogram,

Donald Trump has been drawing

crowds from across Bangladesh

since he arrived at the National

Zoo last.

Week.

He's a great cow.

He's the most perfect cow ever.

We love the cow.

Buffalo.

He's a Buffalo.

Rare albino Buffalo became a

sensation when a farmer noticed

that his blonde tuft of hair

resemble the distinctive locks

of the US president.

After a video of the pale horned

mammal went viral on social

media, large numbers of people

started showing up at the farm

outside of Dhaka.

DHAK, Dhaka.

It's in Bangladesh, Thailand,

where Greg gets his lady boys.

The same for himself.

The animal was originally meant

to be slaughtered for the Muslim

festival of sacrifice, but

citing security concerns, the

government ordered him

transferred to the zoo in the

capital, where large crowds are

now braving sweltering heat to

see him.

I love, I love this Buffalo.

It's the greatest Buffalo.

Buffalo.

I'm going to keep the Buffalo.

It looks like it's AI.

It does look like the image.

Oh really?

Because there were several

different ones, I pulled the one

that showed.

Just the image looks totally AI.

It does.

It could be a completely fake

article.

You know what?

I.

Mean it was on ABC and CBS.

Yeah, well, you know they've

gotten it wrong one day.

News.

Just saying news.

Fake news.

Fake news.

You know.

On Tuesday, visitors pressed

against the fence for the

buffaloes enclosure, filming

them with their phones, and some

fathers hoisted small children

on their shoulders for better

view.

The zoo worker pampered the

animal, brushing his hair to one

side and hosing him down with

water to keep him cool.

His fans blew on him.

There is a resemblance to Donald

Trump in his eyes, hairstyle and

skin color, said Mohamed Naseen,

a student at Dakar and just a.

Donald Trump has a distinctive

personality and lifestyle as

Buffalo, acting going viral, is

now living similar kind of life,

enjoying a lot of attention and

special.

Treatment.

And now he's eating McDonald's

on the regular.

Got a Diet Coke button?

Air Force cow, let's go.

The zoo curator said Saturday,

though no official cause was

given for the dismissal, one of

the.

It's a fucking Buffalo with

hairdos.

I had to fill time.

OK, It's Wednesday.

Thank you.

It's Wednesday.

Here's the hostility.

Yeah, first word, last word,

each sentence.

Next, next.

Next.

Next.

Next.

A Houston restaurant employees

accused of something.

Stealing.

Michael.

He stole, obviously.

No, no, make a boots guess.

I think that he came in, he

didn't clock in and he handed

everybody spoon instead of fork.

Houston restaurant employees

accused of sticking his genitals

into open food items at a Harris

County restaurant and possessing

several videos of child

pornography on his cell phone.

Oh, it's a double whammy.

It's a double.

He stuck his balls in the mashed

potatoes.

Jelly be that type of.

Jelly Jelly According to charge

of documents, Othello Lorenzo

Holmes, 27, had been charged

with five counts of possession

of child pornography and

indecent assault.

Othello Holmes sounds like a

very sophisticated man to be

dipping his shit into the jello.

Not look very.

Oh, it doesn't look very.

It was it was parents that had

hopes and dreams is what that

was.

He's.

He's not wearing a sweater vest.

No, not at all.

Here's my Cordia investigation.

My cashmere.

On April 4th, after Harris

County Deputy arrived at the

restaurant in downtown Houston

to meet with the restaurant

manager, the manager showed

deputies a video of homes

placing his penis and open food

items at the location.

How does this guy get hired is

my question.

How do you pass?

He ordered six other restaurants

and nobody said he sticks his

stuff in the stuff.

But like, so we're talking about

six people have interviewed this

individual and said, you know

what, God damn it, I don't know

what it is about you, but you're

hired, you know?

They just read the resume, they

didn't see the photo.

They naturally assumed sweater

vest.

Hire the guy.

Othello Homes, how soon can you

start?

He reportedly confessed to

putting his genitals in Jelly,

stating he had a sexual urge.

However, he stopped himself

before he finished.

Let's just say.

Oh boy, there was possibility of

finish.

He walked it back.

He also admitted to having these

urges frequently and has a

history of sexual offenses,

saying he has a problem with

these sexual urges and needs

help.

I attacked the bagels.

I attacked the eggs.

I went crazy.

Now, while in prison, he gave

them permission to.

Oh good.

Oh good.

He signed a form.

Sure, go ahead.

Go to my phone.

There's nothing in.

There, he just marked it with an

X.

What are you talking about?

And that's where they found the

child.

He was equally charged with

decent assault and LED to

further investigation by the

Harris County District Forensics

Unit.

Holmes reportedly gave written

consent to the forensic analyst

of his cell phone.

According to documents,

investigators extracted over 100

images and five videos of child

porn.

OK, so this guy 35 years but

wait a minimum wait a wait hold.

Hold the phone.

Every villain has an origin

story, right?

Right.

So like, this guy was most

likely a misguided youth, right?

Somewhere along the way, nobody

was able to help him, right?

But because he made it past that

certain point, throw him under

the prison.

Fuck with kids and find out.

That's my answer period.

I don't give a shit.

He's obviously an adult.

Right.

Yeah, he's he's.

He's a grown ass man.

Like let's just beat him to

death with sticks and just call

it a day. 35.

I wouldn't even give him 35

years.

No, sorry, I don't care.

Well, what went wrong?

Here's what went wrong.

Stone that motherfucker.

That's that's my answer there.

How you like that way to shut

that whole thing?

What if he?

Was kids what if he was 17 and.

He was doing something horrible,

the kids.

Yeah, like stabbing in the

heart.

No, come on now.

No, no, he's not looking at

child porn.

What about just the Jelly?

What if he wasn't looking at

child porn but he was just and

he had the wherewithal like to

sort of do like an edging type

scenario where he's not

completing the process into the

Jelly.

Right, you know he didn't

complete the process into the

gravy.

You know, as wild as it sounds,

I feel like it's more forgivable

at 17 than it is at whatever age

this guy's at, you know what I'm

saying?

That's that's true.

I was sticking my Dick into

anything I could find at 17.

I mean that clip.

Make sure that clip comes out.

You get out of the the car in

the parking lot, like, what the

hell is going on here?

You know, I mean, come on.

Harris County Jail on $500,000

bond for the pornography cases.

Just put that, put that guy in

the right room.

He wasn't.

Even worried about the Jelly.

Address, you know, of course,

that's the.

Least of our problem.

You just put him in the right

cell and say you're not gonna

believe what we found on his

phone.

Oh, Power's out.

Oh, sorry.

Have a good day.

Like, you know, just wrap that

up.

Oh.

The one guy that likes to kill

many of them in the.

Same.

Yeah, send that guy in, Yeah.

Hey, we need you to notch up

this is #4 yeah.

Keep doing what you're doing

all.

Right, Michael, you have a

video.

I do have a video today.

I know we weren't supposed to

bring it up, but you said we

had.

One.

Yes.

Well, you said you weren't going

to bring it up when I don't have

them, and this one was sent to

me from my dear friend.

Can you send it to the studio?

I'm going to stop yelling at me.

Oh wow, look.

At you trying to take.

From my dear friend.

I guess I should incorporate

David Morris as well.

That's.

What you said.

Yeah, David Morris is in the

house.

Let me see.

Here.

Carry the one.

David Morris.

OK, You want him in a group

chat?

I'll just.

Throw him Adam to M&M production

is a really freak boots out of

the week.

That's why I put Greg in it.

There we go.

I was wondering what this was

that said Eminem productions and

like.

That's where all the all the

show stuff happens.

All right, it's 3 minutes long,

so.

Three, you said two earlier.

It's I just saw that it said 3.

It's a lot of watching.

A lot of watching.

Yeah, well, we can cut it.

We can cut it early, but I just

want you to watch at least the

1st 45 seconds of it.

OK.

Is that a new group Gen.

Yeah.

Oh yeah?

Well, David Moore's in there.

Uh oh.

And.

Waiting Ipswich lacrosse players

say one picture sidelined them

from their final game.

The picture appears to show them

with cigars in their mouths, but

they say the cigars are fake and

they can prove it.

But that didn't matter to their

school, as WBZS Mike Sullivan

shows us.

Today, Christian Jenna Caucus is

at work, not play.

The Ipswich Seniors, a member of

the boys lacrosse team squad.

That's a win away from a state

title game finally following

graduation.

This photo of them with cigars

is now keeping his team from

playing.

The crime and the punishment are

not even close to each other.

It's going around and there is

just there's a judge and a jury

and it's evil right now after.

Graduation parents say numerous

students were spotted smoking

cigars.

Christian and his teammates know

the rules for athletes.

The policy stating students may

not use, consume, possess, buy,

sell or give away alcohol,

tobacco products or controlled

substances.

This includes non alcohol called

beer.

His father, John, says the

students asked him.

For a call, we can stop right

there.

Participate in the tradition.

That they are actually shows

photos.

The photo blurted out.

I know it's blurred out.

I don't know if they actually

showed it.

Yeah, OK.

So OK, once you guys just.

Want to go down there and?

We can.

So these two, these these

individuals, 00 me, Greg, oh,

there we go.

So this lacrosse team, they did

a picture of them with cigars,

right?

And we find out that their dad

actually made fake cigars.

He legit made fake cigars.

He proved the fact that he made

fake cigars for these kids and

they were in the semi final game

and they had to forfeitly cancel

their game.

Do you think this was the crime

matching the punishment?

Absolutely not, and I can tell

you why.

The IT it states that, you know,

the code of conduct for the team

is they cannot use, sell, carry,

possess alcohol, tobacco or non

alcohol like beverages.

Well, none of those would that

fall in that category because

it's not tobacco.

So no, it definitely doesn't fit

because they didn't break the

rule.

I totally agree.

What about you?

Palmer I agree too.

If you follow the letter of the

law, they did not do anything

that was listed as not doing.

Was the graduation before the

last game or was that just a

photo they all took?

It sounds like it was the

graduation happened.

It looks to me like it the

graduation had happened and then

the game was going to happen.

Gotcha.

So wild, man.

Yeah, for me.

Look, first of all, I mean,

like, I don't even care.

There's mugged cigars, I mean.

You know, that was my next

question to you, right?

So like to to to give real

relevance to it.

If they were legitimate cigars

and it's part of like their

carnal knowledge they're not

allowed to do this and they went

and did it, then would it be

acceptable?

Well, OK, so first of all, I

understand the punishment at

that point, right?

I understand.

So if you're told not to do

something and the game is on the

line, you don't do it, right?

Excuse me?

So yeah, especially because you

look, as it's your senior year,

you've been working your ass off

this whole time to this game.

This could be the last time you

ever play this game, right?

You're going to the semi finals,

right?

You know, you could win the

championship.

I mean, that must mean a lot to

these kids.

So no, you don't like first of

all, bonehead move to even if it

were if they were real cigars,

bonehead definitely bonehead

move and then to do the fake

cigars, bonehead move, right.

And now the other argument too

is they talk about the fact that

this is kind of like a

tradition, a traditional thing,

right?

This cigar thing.

At the school.

I I don't know but it sounds

like.

What if you read?

If you.

Listen to the whole story.

It sounds like this is some type

of traditional thing.

So step one bonehead move,

right?

So first problem, Step 2, me

personally, I mean, I, I don't

care.

It's not like, you know, it's

like, hey, this is a celebratory

situation, whatever, they're

having the cigars, OK, even with

their reel or they're fake,

right?

From a parent's perspective

right now.

Step 2 if I if if I know that

this is going like a parent went

out of the way to create fake

cigars.

Yeah, within the rule, right,

within the rule scenario.

Right.

Yeah, OK.

If you're going to go out of the

way because you know of the

guidelines that are in effect

right now, here's what I do.

I take the I, I let them do this

and I grab everybody's phone.

I take one picture, right?

I take one picture.

It's on my phone.

This picture is staying dormant

until we are completed with the

season, right?

Because then at that point, you

still have the image.

You still, you did everything

right.

You didn't put it in someone's

hands that could control your

the outcome, right?

Mission accomplished.

You checked all your boxes.

The kids don't aren't exposed to

tobacco, even though they're all

probably sucking on pouches and

zens and all this other shit

that's going on right now,

right?

If you protected them, you gave

them the image, they go to the

game, win, lose, draw, whatever,

and you just and you carry on

your business, right?

The other problem too is that

when they tried to reach the

authority of people that made

the pull on this, guess what,

unavailable.

Yeah.

Of course.

Well, because they were in the

wrong.

I mean, that's obvious.

Yeah, they screwed these kids.

I mean, they screwed these kids.

Yeah.

Unjustly.

Yeah.

So if they weren't athletes, it

would have been nothing they

could have done.

That's correct.

And the guy says later on he's

like, oh, you know, the band

members don't get punished,

right?

Right.

Oh, the band members have cigars

too.

I.

Think that this is a tradition.

Gotcha.

So I think that there are other

scenarios where this has

occurred.

You know, the other thing too is

to consider like, maybe they're

a really good team, right?

And maybe the other other people

didn't want them to advance.

Mike Mikey's football politics

is is grinding, dude.

Some of that.

Maybe there was.

Money because he has seen some

shit like this.

Before I'm telling you, man, you

know, like I don't, you don't

see it a lot.

Like you don't see it a lot, but

it exists.

It 100% exists.

I've seen scenarios where I was

like, hmm, that was kind of

weird.

Like, all right, just chalk that

up to whatever.

And then like something else

happens O2 straight.

I'm like 2 weird things at one

time.

And then when you're at about 5,

you're like, OK, what the hell

is going on here?

You know, you're not something's

something's wrong.

You're either not, you're not

calling down the line.

You got something's happening.

My brother has had experiences

with a biased refs is what it

is.

That's that's that's really what

this is.

I have.

I absolutely have.

Or at least I believe that I

have, you know this.

But like, here's the crazy part,

right?

This is all like last season I

coached 11 teams, 11 teams.

That equates to 11 games a week,

right?

So within a six week span, I'm

almost at 70 games.

With post season, it's probably

close to 80 or 90 games.

There was probably one game or

maybe 2 where I saw the

scenarios like oh shit this is

slighted.

Sure, you've you've experienced

enough to understand the tempo.

Yeah, I'm not coming out here

talking like Phil saying, oh,

you know, the this is what's

going on.

I saw this, yeah, I saw this

conspiracy on on YouTube and now

I know the TikTok guys told me,

you know, so it's it's very

possible in the scenario that

that's what happened, like, oh,

well, you know, hey, screw these

kids.

They weren't too good.

They were too good.

Maybe very.

It was very possible.

You know well, nothing makes a

loser feel better than watching

a winter fall. 100.

Percent.

Oh, look at you.

Was that in a fortune cookie at

the 12 course meal?

At the Peruvian.

I collect quotes, you know that?

The fortune cookie.

He's a quote collector.

Fortune cookie for you, Sir

Fortune.

Cookie for you, Sir.

That they make loser feel better

than the winner lose.

Winter.

Fall.

Yes, you needed dust.

Off you needed.

Dust off your shirt.

By the way, Greg, you're covered

in a little bit of ash,

especially around the mic, so

you know.

Oh, there it is.

Yeah, a good blow.

You guys should just wear.

Oh, yeah, grains, yeah.

So if they'd already graduated,

technically they're out of the

rules of the school I.

Don't know.

Now you're getting some Gray

area.

The fact of the matter is, they

weren't even smoking cigars,

right?

Yeah.

You know what I mean?

Or the dad quickly, oh, you guys

got in trouble quick.

Let's no no like some dowels and

cut these up, make them look

like cigars.

No, if you go down further, like

if you watch that whole clip,

he's like, here's what I he

explains exactly what he needed

to acquire.

He went to a tobacconist to

figure out how to replicate fake

cigars.

Wow.

He showed receipts he used like

banana leaves and all kinds of

other things.

Oh, so he didn't make them out

of wood, he made them so they

look like yeah.

Oh wow.

He made them out of banana

leaves, Yeah.

'Cause you can, yeah.

And roll them up.

You leave fermented banana

leaves I.

Look, I don't know how we got

there, but.

I need to know.

But he could prove how he did

it.

It's so much to a point where,

like, I guess the administrator

called the cigar store and he

said, yeah, no, he didn't buy

any cigars here.

I explained to him what to do.

Wow, and they still That's one

hell of a tobacconist.

He.

Said they weren't cigars.

Yeah, Who's that guy?

I want to know who that?

Retailer is, yeah, let's call

them.

So he's going over and above for

the non customer.

Yeah, I want to know that retail

I'm not here to buy cigars.

I want to know how to replicate

this shit.

Well, let me just stop from

selling cigars for a moment and

sit down with you and have a

lengthy conversation with you

about how to make fake ones.

Yeah.

It could be, it could be.

It's got to be two guys.

It sounds like that accent.

Right.

Yeah, I mean, it's very pot.

I mean shit.

I don't make these.

It's OK.

Here you go.

I'm going to tell you that

retailer is that retailer is a

boss for sure. 100% tell me I'm

wrong.

No, you're right.

We all said we want to meet him.

I'm down over there.

I want to know the process.

But you take some banana leaves.

That's as far as we got.

Dry them out and then you roll

them and you cut them and then

you make a sugar.

You smoke them.

It tastes like bananas.

It's amazing.

You get your potassium up.

Right, you get it takes care of

all them cramps you get from

going up and down the stairs

we're.

Going to start a whole new

trend.

Banana cigars.

These are bananas.

Untaxed.

Untaxed.

Untaxed smoky bananas.

There's no taxes.

Smoke those bananas.

That sounds like that doesn't

sound right.

That's Phil's new movie he's

making right now.

Smoke those bananas.

Smoking bananas with Phil

Mcguffey as the banana.

Roll.

Which is why he's not here

today, right?

He's smoking bananas.

Smoking.

Bananas OK, All right.

Cigar News Aladio Diaz, 73rd and

a Versario.

The Unforgettable Edition heads

to stores.

Unforgettable.

The cigar celebrating Aladio

Diaz's 73rd birthday are on

their way to US retailers today.

I've been getting a small soft

launch in the Dominican

Republic.

Remember when he used to keep

his birthday things in the trunk

and he would never share them

with anybody?

Now they're going to all

retailers.

They're going everywhere.

Are we getting?

These do we have these now?

We're going international.

Called the Alario Diaz 73rd and

Versario Unforgettable Edition.

Greg, are we getting these?

No, we used to do business with

them.

They make really good cigars but

I don't think we buy their.

I don't think that's true, but

OK.

I I like their stuff.

We should get some because you

know, I'm in charge of that if

you watch the last show.

This guy is such a boss.

He smokes A Postana SBC every

single podcast.

I mean, look at him like a

gangster.

It's my second cigar of the day,

every day.

You smoke the SBCI do the

Postonia SBC you'll.

Like to remind himself he's

surrounded by champions, it's

like.

It's homage to you guys.

What's it like being you?

It just sounds so amazing.

It looks amazing.

It's.

So rich, Yeah.

Guess what?

The rich.

The only banded cigar I smoke is

the one on the show.

Everything else is Postonia

Segundos.

I don't even smoke banded.

Ones on the I have those at the

house.

Yeah, it's like, you know.

Those are the ones he throws at

the dog.

You know, I'd like to, I like to

podcast my day with some limited

production.

We don't, we don't have any

segundos of this.

No.

Otherwise I would be smoking a

segundos.

Well, what about the Connecticut

you start the day with?

That's not a segundo.

Sometimes it is, sometimes I'm

in a rush and I just grab it out

of the humidor.

He must be in a rush most days.

I'm always in a rush.

Super busy.

Super very busy.

Super busy, very successful,

handsome and rich and Mama's

favorite.

And Ruckus's handsome favorite.

Oh, how was the movie yesterday,

by the way?

Yeah, how was the movie?

Oh my God, so.

Not I don't know if that's good

or.

Not you want to go see, you want

to go see Michael.

You want to go see Michael,

right.

OK, so look Jackson, yes, so

listen to to tell a story about

Michael Jackson, you must

include his music in it, right?

It's definitely part of who he

is, right?

There was an over emphasis on

the music for one.

That's why people want to go.

For for two, there was no story

whatsoever.

The entire story was Michael

being underneath the control of

his father and trying to become

his old man.

That's the only thing to it.

There's there's nothing dynamic

about it, not.

Like the animals?

Like the the actors were very

well talented.

Like they, they, they, they,

they were very good at

portraying all of those roles.

But like when we left Axel and

Alex, like, did you like it?

I'm like, it was fucking

horrible.

There was, there was no story.

There was nothing.

There was nothing to it.

It didn't cause you to question

anything.

It didn't cause you to think

about anything.

It was nothing to it at all.

Just entertainment.

Right.

And then and then my son is

like, well, you know, that's

because it's like the first

part.

It's like you know him as a

child.

There's going to be a second

part.

I'm like, you guys can go see

that on your own.

I'm not going to go watch that

because if it's anything like

the first one, there's no story

to it.

So wait, who picked the movie

then?

Axel did, actually.

The wife wanted to go see he

man, which I think I probably

would have enjoyed.

Probably enjoyed more.

How do you not?

Go see Scary Movie.

That was if I had to pick three

out of those three.

I'm going to see Scary Movie.

Greg doesn't normally go to the

movies with Axel.

Yeah, so Axel picks the movie to

go see, which is a story of an

overbearing father trying to

trying to control his son.

Yeah.

Yeah, but I, I wasn't, I wasn't

trying to control him.

I allowed him to do whatever he

wanted to do.

I want to put that out there.

So everybody, Hey, So what?

Do you think of the story?

I mean, it's, you know, it's

about a dad that really pressed

hard on an individual son.

I mean like his.

Son, and make him do things he

didn't want to do.

Yeah.

How did how did that?

How did that make you feel?

And Greg goes It was terrible.

I hated it.

Horrible, horrible movie.

What a piece of shit.

Father was completely

misinterpreted.

Everything was justifiable.

I don't know what the problem

is.

He's just trying to help teach

him a lesson.

Actors, be a better person.

The actors were great.

It wasn't that that was what the

story was about, it's that that

was all the story was about.

And there were only like 5

points in the movie that were

showing that.

The rest of it was basically him

singing and dancing.

He So there was no context.

There was no, there was no

context to him as a person,

right?

Other than the fact that he had

this overbearing father and he

was trying to become his own

man, That's it.

No behind the scenes where he's

like trying to make himself

paler or something.

Or I mean, there was like some

of that, like the the nose job

came into to play, but like

little quibbits.

But there was no there was

nothing tangible to it.

There was nothing that caused

you to question anything,

nothing that put you back like,

wow, I didn't see that one

coming, right.

Yeah.

Nothing to the film.

I'm sorry that, I'm sorry that

that.

Happened to you, Maybe she'd go

see.

Him.

Maybe I'm just predisposed.

I don't like going to the movie

theatre.

I just don't like going to the

movie theatre.

Why not Greg?

Did you?

Did you sit with it on your lap

the entire time just in case?

No, it's in, it's in my back.

No, like because it's like dark

and.

Scary.

Place build room with strangers

that you know people have been

shot in.

No, I don't like going there.

Probably somebody went shot in

that particular.

Probably not that particular

theatre, but nevertheless.

I mean, the last one was Dark

Knight, I thought, right?

That was the big highlight.

That was the last big one.

It was 2000 and and it's.

Expensive and like you know, and

if you're if you're going to

eat, what are you going to eat?

You're going to eat 50 lbs of

popcorn and a slush.

Do you know how you feel after

eating something like that?

Great.

It's.

Horrible the butter.

Horrible.

The butter.

They didn't have like regular

food.

Is that one?

What?

What the shitty pizza I mean.

I don't know, supposedly Epic

here in Deltona has been

remodeled and they have all

those lounge chairs now and

upgraded food.

I've.

Been well there was decent

chairs.

I guess you could say the whole

joint is now self-serve.

Like they just give you empty

vessels.

Go fill your own popcorn.

Right?

Go fill your own soda.

Oh, OK.

And this was $55.

Yeah, there's 50.

The cups, They're $55.

Insane.

No.

No, I brought my own cup.

It's fine.

I'll just step right over here.

It's good.

Interesting stuff.

You know, it's very interesting.

OK, a lot of your cigar has two

binders and one Sumatra and the

other San Andreas, both grown in

the southern part of the

Dominican Republic and.

Apparently Greg likes them and.

Apparently rounding out the

blend, the filler includes

barrel aged Tabano 2000, Crojo

99, Crayolo 98, Crojo 6 and

Peloto Cubano with the Corollo

98.

Coming from the southern part of

the Dominican Republic, there's

a lot of tobacco for a cigar.

Well, maybe that's his thing,

you know, Keeps it complicated.

We're going to Fast forward.

Oh, look at you a lot.

Of editing in this episode.

Oh, and then there's another

whole nother cigar.

Oh wait, how much is this

robusto way that makes the Toro?

How much is the 6 1/2 by 54

Toro?

Greg. $16. $16.00 It's the

birthday anniversario.

It's the birthday anniversario.

The ones he used to sell out of

his trunk that now because of

you, he sells everywhere. 6 Do

you want to recant your 16?

Oh no, I like my number.

A firm 16, I'm going to say $45.

Number a little, a little.

Too far the other way, but you

can't even get a reboost over

$16.

It's $700. $25 cigar 25 and the

reboost though is $5 less it's

$20.

Well his average cigar is like

25 bucks.

Well, OK.

Then he's keeping this at

average price.

It's a limited release.

Robusto's particularly limited.

They made less of those.

I'd pay 65.

A box is $270, contains 10 Toro

extras, but one robusto.

Oh, it's a it's.

A sort of interesting.

Cigars are made in Tabliculera

Diaz Cibera in the Dominican

Republic and are distributed US

by Arango Cigar Company.

In addition to US, the cigars

are sold in the Dominican

Republic.

Next week we'll begin shipping

to Europe and Asia.

Wow, now he's really selling

these things everywhere.

Yeah, no more trunk.

No more trunk.

Wow, we've moved out of the

trunk.

No more trunk.

We sell them everywhere.

Prestige worldwide wide.

And that's $16.00 or 70. 5

investors possibly you OK,

moving on?

Agonorsa, Leaf, Supreme, Leafs,

Tarrant, Riley.

What is it?

They're making a sampler.

They're bringing back all the

previous sizes.

It's all The Supremes.

There's a new Supreme Leaf

sampler which contains the

Agonorsa Leaf blend in 10

different vitolas, each of which

was a past release when most

cigar lines are introducing in

at least a few different regular

production.

But Tolas Agonors Relief has

taken a unique approach to

Supreme Leaf.

With the exception of a pair of

international releases, the

company introduces one new

Supreme Leaf Atoll at a time.

Once a Batolle is sold out, the

company will eventually announce

a new Batolle.

After 10 years of work.

That means that at any given

time, there's only one supreme

leave Ventola offered for sale.

But didn't they drop like

back-to-back ones in particular

years?

Like all of a sudden and supreme

leave.

Like wait a second again.

Yeah, but they just, that's what

I'm saying, they changed the

size.

Yeah, but it happened in more

than once in a single year.

people that you call and they

to.

I've never heard of you.

You're with who?

Yeah, what?

Yeah, it was pretty cool.

names because we didn't want to

get in trouble, you know?

So they answer the phone and

they go hi this is blankety

blank blank.

Right.

Boop beep.

Just, I think a series of just

travel humidor was designed and

created a truly extraordinary

experience for the cigar lovers

Alfonso, founder, Selected

Tobaccos to call.

Nelson.

Do you have Nelson's?

Number Did you see an image of

the the humidor?

Yes.

Is it cool?

It looks like a obviously it's

bigger, but it looks like an old

cigarette case is used to put,

you know, like in your jacket

pocket.

Little flat thing, just big

enough for the cigars that fit

in.

I'm a text them, can I get the

black but?

It's got to be bigger than that.

Yeah, but it's cigar size.

But that's what it looks like.

You know, like a little

sandwich.

Kind of out there.

And maybe, you know, you put it

in a big.

Pocket made of wood.

No leather, leather, leather.

I want to try it.

Today Cigar and Reviewer June

9th, 2026 Charlie Minato, AJ

Fernandez Cigars Amar by AJ

Fernandez Toro.

Cool, I'm unfamiliar with the

cigar.

I am too, Gregory.

Oh, 88.

OK, that's a good number.

I'm going to say 87 and David,

you get the courtesy of going

last 91.

Mr. Morris is in 91.

Since the move over there.

Now, David.

Now, David, we now I have

questions.

Have you seen the review?

He has not seen the review.

OK. 91C Minato.

Have you smoked the Amar before?

OK.

He has not smoked a cigar and he

has no idea who Charlie is.

Yeah.

Never heard of?

Him Mr. Minato.

Cigar Review is the Amar by AJ

Fernandez.

It's in a Toro factory.

San Latano Rapper Nicaraguan

Habano Binder Nicaraguan Filler

Nicaraguan Length 6 by 56 It's

round and they smoked 3 cigars.

Yesterday it was 2 days ago it

was 1.

No movements till 88.

Sperm in the 88.

I thought he meant he didn't

have to poop.

I've had no movements 88.

I'm going to, I'm going to sneak

up here to 89.

Mr. Morris sticking with 91 The

Amar by AJ clue #1 The Amar by

AJ Fernandez delivered a complex

and evolving flavour profile,

showcasing notes of earth

leather, popcorn, Berry

sweetness, brown mustard,

creaminess and even touches of

hosen sauce.

Hosen touches of what?

Hosen OISIN, hosen sauce and

cinnamon.

May I have to say hosen sauce?

You can probably stop.

When the sharper element settled

down, oh, that was that revealed

impressive death and new.

One this is still clue #1 yes.

OK, sorry, I was thrown off by

hosen sauce so I paused.

OK, what is hosen sauce?

I have no idea.

I.

Don't know, I can't look it up.

It's cheating.

Is it?

You gotta wait till the end.

I'm sticking with 88. 808991

David's holding firm in 91 He

knows what hosen sauce is.

He understands the Hosen.

Clue #2.

There's some holes in this

house.

Construction was generally solid

despite a few issues.

The reviewer noted that all

three cigars were real well

rolled with no major draw

concern on the cold draw, and

aside from some ash and burn

inconsistencies, there were no

significant structural flaws

throughout the smoking

experience of.

Course only aging.

Only.

Aging 8888, 89.

Mr. Morris.

Oh, he moves to 90, ladies to

90.

Clue #3 The biggest drawback was

the overwhelming sharpness and

aggressive saltiness that

dominated much of the smoking

experience.

Combined with occasional tight

draws, frequent touch ups and

fragile ash, the lack of balance

often mass the more subtle and

enjoyable flavors that the blend

had to offer.

Does that make sense?

Hoosen sauce is very very salty.

Yeah, so much hoosen hosen and

hosen it.

Causes the ash to be.

Sticking with 88.

Are you hosen or are you hosen?

I'm rolling back 87 original

number.

Morris I think I'm 186.

Oh, 86 for Mr. Moore drops all

the way down to 86.

Getting a voicemail.

Final thought yet again.

I wonder how much of my

frustrations with how a cigar

tasted is related to it being

overfilled.

Well, not as bad as some recent

reviews if it had my way, or if

I had my way, the draws would

have been looser than what I

smoked.

However, the thing I hope to see

change the most is how sharp the

pepper and salty flavors were.

Very salty.

The good news is that sharpness

could be reduced with some time

in the humidor.

If it does, I suspect there's a

decent amount of sweetness to be

had from the Amar by AJ

Fernandez, something that could

make big improvements to the

cigars complexity.

Was that the final thought?

Yes, the final thought, like I'm

gonna stay with 88.

Shit, middle one, the middle

position, so tough.

I'm going to stick 87.

David.

Oh, he audibles up 89.

All within like a close cluster.

OK, that's nice all.

Right, we're going to look at

Greg real quick because I don't

know what Polymer's doing.

I'm checking on my wife.

No, no, I had to.

So you got 88. 88. 87878980. 9

It's 87. 80 Where's my button?

Hold on, hold on.

Hold.

On nailed it.

I'm not going to lie, he made it

tough.

When he threw 86 I was like

shit.

How many more has he hit on the

head?

Lately it's been quite frequent.

Because I remember the last time

we discussed that.

But he threw a couple of the

last couple of days

intentionally, you think, to get

us off his, you know, so we

stopped guessing on how he's

doing it.

Listen, you know you used to

support me in this, just for the

record, and now I.

Just asked.

All I did was ask.

And now, now it sounds like

you're you're buying into the.

Conspiracy.

I'm not buying into the.

Conspiracy.

I'm just.

Yeah, he is.

It's just.

Asking a question.

It's a simple.

Question.

You're going to upset Ruckus.

She doesn't like the boys

arguing.

Yeah, you're supposed to be.

You're supposed to have my back

just because I'm really good at

this game and I'm going to tell

you I almost I almost had to

throw 85 like I almost did.

I'm like, but there's no way.

I'm like there's no way it went

85, but come on, I pulled it off

the RIP 87.

OK, guys, I'm just good at this

game.

I just know this industry.

Just he knows this industry.

I do totally totally.

OK, the epilepsy in our audience

is going crazy.

Flashing.

Images have to put a thing at

the beginning.

Careful flashing images may

cause epileptic.

Scene no.

Come on.

OK, Mr. Palmer, anything else to

add?

Nope, that's it, that's the

show.

I just heard a beep out front.

It could be your boyfriend.

It's almost time.

It is.
