Starting point is 00:02:46 Do they? Do they, though? Most like, hey, what are you gonna do? That's like one of those things that people just say because they have nothing else to say. Right? Like, I'm having a conversation with someone, and at some point we get someone says, hey, what are you gonna do? That is key for this conversation.

Like, we of us Are willing to walk away It's like fair enough Yeah fair enough Fair enough Like we have nothing more To talk about It's Backseat of the cab conversation

Starting point is 00:03:41 Oh, my God. Yes. So I had a realization. All right. Oh boy. Yeah. Okay. It's Labor Day, right?
Starting point is 00:03:48 You know what happens on Labor Day? Apparently something with Beyonce, I guess, because that's all people have been talking about today. I thought it was about unionized workers fighting for labor rights, but not at all. That's not the case. Both those are wrong. Okay. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:01 A bunch of sales at furniture and mattress stores. Ah, you know what? Absolutely true. I don't know if it's like this in the country or like, you know, wherever. Or wherever. But in the city, I've noticed this in like LA and Chicago and just any other city. There's like a thousand mattress stores. Yes.
Starting point is 00:04:21 Oh, absolutely. And I don't get it. Like, nobody buys mattresses that often but there are a lot of people and people need beds so you're thinking very small you're thinking like i know one or two people and they don't need mad or like maybe a hundred people you're thinking of in your mind but there's millions of people in big cities but how often you buy a mattress it doesn't matter because just like cars how are there so many car uh sales places i guess that's true well it's like is it one of those things where if you sell one mattress you're
Starting point is 00:04:51 like all right we've paid a lot of the rent or something i don't think it's the same no i mean some mattresses are like a couple thousand bucks some are like 400 bucks some are 200 bucks but my dream is to get one of those crazy adjustable mattresses What's that thing called? The sleep number mattress I want one of those How much are those? Hold on
Starting point is 00:05:12 Sleep number I like how we're basically advertising This is stuff that is advertised on podcasts Like this all the time And we're just like How much do you think it's cost? I just want to know Yeah I just want to know The classic series
Starting point is 00:05:26 The most classic one Is $699 But what's like the good one What's the one That I want to sleep on 360 smart bed The i10 $4000
Starting point is 00:05:36 Holy shit My god That bed Better Like You better be able To have sex with that bed That's all I'm saying
Starting point is 00:05:43 You better be able To drive that bed To your job You better be able To bang sex with that bed. That's all I'm saying. You better be able to drive that bed to your job. You better be able to bang, then drive that bed to your job. Actually, it automatically and effortlessly adjusts to you. I don't know how that works. What? I saw a commercial for this, which is why I'm mesmerized by it. Like, someone's snoring, and because they start snoring, the bed automatically makes them not snore and i was like get out all right that's pretty that's pretty insane that's
Starting point is 00:06:08 almost like driving you to work i know but i don't see that on here i do see it's this temperature balancing surface sleep surface i don't know what that means i don't know what any of this means it's all gibberish it's an app it has an app that shows you stuff about your sleep Alright, if your bed has an app That's already a problem You already have too much technology in your bed If at that point you're like Hold on, let me get my bed app But it's got temperature balancing
Starting point is 00:06:35 Sleep surface I don't know what that means It has an optional feature of flex fit adjustable bases What does that mean? I don't know God, it's so much money. Compare. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:06:47 I'm going to shop now. I'm going in. I'm going in. All right. So those things are like they have so many features, but you don't understand any of the features. But you're like, it's got to be good, right? It's a feature. It's got to be.
Starting point is 00:06:57 If I want to get a king size bed. Right. I mean, why would you get anything else? A king size bed. $5,000. That's already way too much money forsize bed. $5,000. That's already way too much money for a bed. $5,000. Although I guess the way they sell it to you, they're like,
Starting point is 00:07:11 you spend most of your life sleeping. Don't you want to sleep? I'm just saying it's already a lot for a bed. Now, if they want to advertise on this show, boy, is that the right price for a bed. Shit, dude. One day. Yeah, one day.
Starting point is 00:07:27 They have to send us a free bed first. I want a free bed first. Then I'll start calling this shit good. They're not going to give us the i10, though. Are you kidding me? They have to. They're going to give us the C2 or some shit. It's got like dual air and like an 8-inch profile.
Starting point is 00:07:39 That's the only features it has. I don't even know what that means. What you just said is not real. That's not real stuff. Oh, my God. I want at least temperature balancing. The i10 with FlexFit 3. I don't know what that means.
Starting point is 00:07:53 I couldn't tell you what that means. $10,000. What? What? $10,000? $9,698 plus tax. You know that's $10,000. $10,000. $9,698 plus tax. You know that's $10,000. $10,000?
Starting point is 00:08:07 What does this do? Endless head positions. What does that mean? All right, so you can move your head different places. Gently raise your partner's head to help alleviate snoring. Oh, so it doesn't do it itself. Like, you got to do it? That's stupid.
Starting point is 00:08:20 Dumb. Find your way at night with under bed lighting? It has the same lighting that Japanese race cars have when they're on the streets of Tokyo. Maybe you can drive to work in this. Are you Tokyo drifting? Oh my god. Go to sleep with the Tokyo drift. It's got a pressure relief, support cooling, comfort Layer 7
Starting point is 00:08:46 Profile 13 What? Foot warming designed to help you fall asleep faster? Foot warming? It warms your feet? A thing just popped up, it was like chat with a live professional now I feel like we should interview someone On this show that works there and be like $10,000?
Starting point is 00:09:04 But did you hear about the foot warming? I just want to say, for the record, the i10 FlexFit 2, the only thing different about that is it doesn't have the feet warming. That is $1,000 less. No, $1,200 less. Feet warming is $1,200? I'll buy a blanket to save $1,200. You could literally hire a small child to come and rub your feet before you slept every night.
Starting point is 00:09:29 Cheaper than that. It's true. You could have a child and then raise that child to rub your feet every night before you went to bed and warm you up and give them a $1,200 allowance every year. And still more than most children make an allowance. That's true. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. This is crazy.
Starting point is 00:09:50 This is crazy. This is pretty crazy. Oh, my God. The I-10 that doesn't have the movement, right? Just the base I-10, just a regular bed, $5,000. What? Why would you? I'm not sure I would let them advertise on this show now.
Starting point is 00:10:07 That seems like a ridiculous amount of money. It does. There's got to be competitors, right? There's got to be some competitors that have cheaper stuff for the same price. Sleep Nombre? Yeah. Sleep Nombre. Sleep Nombre.
Starting point is 00:10:21 They're probably the Android. And this is like the Apple or something. There's the Satava Company what is that There's the Kitsa eco-friendly mattresses Those just biodegrade while you sleep on them There's the I don't know there's that one mattress I keep hearing
Starting point is 00:10:38 About on podcast but I can't remember what it's called But they're like you roll it out And I'm like that doesn't sound like it could possibly Be comfortable A mattress that comes to you that can be crunched up And then yeah you roll it out i'm like that doesn't sound like it could possibly be comfortable a mattress that comes to you that it could be crunched up and then you just roll it out there's no way that that is the same as a normal mattress on any test it though i'll test it send one to crendor i'm sure they'll love it i'll probably not like it customer testimonials these are probably real people not actors i'm excited yeah excited, yeah. I love when they say that, too. They're like, they do that a lot on car commercials.
Starting point is 00:11:07 They're like, these are real people, not actors. And it's like, well, yeah, everybody's a real person. Actors, though, not real people. Yeah, and they probably just quantify it by being like, actors are people that have acted in a television show or movie. These people have not acted at all. So here's your money and uh say it's good they're just like oh my god ford focus won that many awards it's unbelievable yeah if anything i feel like real people are more susceptible to stupid shit like you're right this is impressive yeah it's like the commercial what's
Starting point is 00:11:42 the one where um now a car drives up and it's like that's not my the one where Now a car drives up And it's like that's not my car And they're like well get in it And they're like okay And they get in it and they're like wow this car is amazing It's not like my car at all And it's like yeah because it's brand new The doors are locked
Starting point is 00:11:58 How do I get in it? We're taking you to Brazil You thought this was a car commercial But we're kidnapping you Oh jeez it's still a nice car though Like if you did a commercial With a quote real person Like you just went into a bar
Starting point is 00:12:12 And picked out like Fred Johnson And you took him to the place He'd be like hey what do you think of this He'd be like eh I think my niece has one of those It's like yeah what do you think I don't know. I want a Lambo, but I'm never going to buy one.
Starting point is 00:12:28 This looks like a car for ladies. I would never drive this thing. You know how they got them chick cars? Yeah, my wife bought one of them damn things. She's like, you can drive it around whenever you want, Phil. I ain't going to show up in those things. The guys at the club are going to give me shit. I hate these cars, so why are you showing me this shit again?

Starting point is 00:13:02 I like what I like It's like what they do with the any interview things or like i know tv used to do a lot where they'd like interview people and be like so answer these questions like where's oh jay leto did that all the time yeah like where's this on a map and they're like i don't know and then they're like oh well okay then like 99 of people are like oh it's right there or somewhere in this vicinity. And then the one person they like film, then people are like, people are stupid now. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:31 I love Jay Leno. He used to do it all the time. He'd be like, Jay Leno here out on the street. We got guys over here. Like, hey there. Where do you think Afghanistan is on this map? And they'd be like, I don't know here. They'd point to the ocean.
Starting point is 00:13:50 He's like, oh, jeez, you're stupid. They'd be like, I know. I'm an idiot. They're stupid. Everyone watching is like, I'm smarter than that fool. Does anyone else know map? I do. I'm so excited.
Starting point is 00:14:09 Another Jay Leno street walking. Jay walking, I think. Jay walking. Of course it was named Jay walking. Jay walking because it's Jay Leno. Yeah. Street walking. Jay Leno street walking is when he poses a prostitute.
Starting point is 00:14:22 He was like, hey there. If you want, I can take you back to this alley and give you a sweet, sweet kiss. That's like all those Tonight Show things now. Like, they're kind of on their way out because of the internet. But like, that was the prime thing, like in the 80s, like the 90s. Yeah. It's just like Jay Leno and David Letterman.
Starting point is 00:14:41 And one guy, was it Johnny Carson? That was like what all the people were. Johnny Carson was cool. Johnny Carson, I remember when he was actually still on TV. That's how old I am. Mama mia. Yeah, but Conan O'Brien, I used to stay up every night and watch Conan after J. Leno. And I was like, one day he's going to be it.
Starting point is 00:14:58 He's going to be the next big thing. And now he's on TBS. Yep. Conan, I miss you, buddy. Yeah. Oh, that's right. He was on NBC for a while. Yeah, and then they fired his ass.
Starting point is 00:15:10 Yeah, I remember that. They were like, the kids don't get his jokes. I think it was a lot of older people watching it and they were like, I don't get his jokes either. Of course it's older people. Apparently there was some study during the Tonight Show,
Starting point is 00:15:26 more couples over the age of 40 have sex, I think, is like the... What? Like, that's their doing it. Yes, there was at one point. And so I think the joke was like people couldn't get it up when Conan O'Brien was on TV. Like, look at that red-headed freak. Oh, Martha, I can't have
Starting point is 00:15:45 sex with you tonight. That redheaded freak scared me. They can get it up to Jay Leno and David Letterman. Yeah, because Jay Leno's like, hey, everybody, it's me, Jay Leno. Oh, yeah. Let's do it. It's another episode of jaywalking. I can't wait to bone you tonight.
Starting point is 00:16:02 Oh, hey there, everybody. It's me, Jay Leno out on the street. I hear y'all have sex hey there, everybody. It's me, Jay Leno, out on the street. I hear y'all have insects over there. Yeah, that's right, Jay. How'd we get here? I think we're talking about why people buy mattresses. Yeah, that's right. Yep, that is absolutely right.
Starting point is 00:16:24 I still don't get it. Listen, just, listen, just make like a mega mattress store. Make it like take up half the city. What? That's too much. That's too much. They can all get together. I'm convinced that some of the mattress stores are just like drug fronts or whatever they are. Well, you have to figure you buy one, maybe two mattresses of a variety.
Starting point is 00:16:46 Right. And that's all you need. So all you're doing is renting the store space, which means besides paying your employees, you don't have to like, and maybe electricity, you don't have to do much. Oh, here we go. Yeah. I just Googled, why are there so many mattress stores popped up here we go conspiracy time from the chicago tribune shortly after melissa marie moved into her new apartment
Starting point is 00:17:12 a mattress firm moved down the block away from another mattress firm she was baffled i've never seen anyone in the stores uh who was walking down a mile stretch of Clybourne Avenue in Lincoln Park. Even the CEO of mattress firm, Ken Murphy, agrees Chicago probably has a few too many, but there's a method behind what seems to be a madness of mattress stores on every corner. In its best markets,
Starting point is 00:17:37 Houston-based mattress firms aim to have a store for about every 50,000 people. That means Murphy would eventually like to have roughly only 200 in the chicago area today they're 235 some duplicative uh or unprofitable stores will be closing but not right away mattress firm is reviewing its real estate footprint with an eye to trimming stores but hasn't yet decided how many or which stores to shut down even 200 is a lot of stores specializing in a product that for many customers is a once in a decade purchase car dealers come closest but there are no other
Starting point is 00:18:10 retail chains that focus on big ticket discretionary products with that many stores said wed bush securities analyst seth basham doesn't sound real. Roughly 9,000 specialty bed and mattress stores in the U.S. generated about $11.5 billion in revenue in 2015, according to a report last year from Market Research. In Chicago, the answer has a lot to do with mattress firms pushed to grow through acquisitions. While many respect it's a great opportunity to get as populated in the market as quickly as we have, the downside is we have real duplication of stores right on top of another one on top of another so it's what we thought
Starting point is 00:18:48 there's just too many of them but there's a reason why there's so many because people still do need mattresses yeah and i guess if you have kids or you have like you know new additions to the family whatever yeah then you need a new mattress or if you get married You can't have your tiny ass mattress anymore I get it I get it It's just crazy I can't wait to see what the comments are From people overseas
Starting point is 00:19:16 In my country we have no mattress store We have one Mattress store run by Paul Paul is good mattress one mattress store run by Paul. Paul is good mattress for me. Paul Mattress Store. He's number one mattress store. Paul Mattressive.
Starting point is 00:19:33 He is this. Yeah, this is named Paul Mattressive. You buy mattress, get free goat. It is a steal. That's actually a better deal than we get. Get free child to rub your feet. It is steel. That's actually a better deal than we get. Get free child to rub your feet. It is phenomenal.
Starting point is 00:19:52 That's the Paul's Flex 3 package. You'll get free child to rub your feet. It is just like number mattress, but better. Phenomenal. Much cheaper, Much cheaper. Seems like it's some sort of legal issue. We have no laws here. No laws.
Starting point is 00:20:15 What are you going to do? Fair enough. Alright, well, let's go to Chapter 7 of the Sky of the Grandeur. Grandeur, how's that traffic out there? Oh, well, it's not bad. A lot of people taking their labor day to just barbecue and do that type of thing. But there is a backup to the mattress stores. For some reason, everyone wants to get a mattress sales deal.
Starting point is 00:20:35 You know, I don't get it. I just got my own mattress. I don't need a mattress. But, you know, what are you going to do? Some people just want to steal. You know, it's like a Black Friday of mattresses. It's just insane. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:20:48 Black Friday is only like two months away. Back to you. All right, Crendor. Let's. Oh, my God. It is only two months away. Let's go to Crendor over the weather desk. How's that weather?

So now there's about a few weeks left and it looks like it's going to be Washington. Cubs are still on top.
Starting point is 00:22:31 The Dodgers are insane. They're 92-44. However, I guarantee it's one of those things where they'll make the playoffs and lose the first round. The Dodgers? No. Yeah, the Dodgers. What?

We have the Chiefs and the Patriots. That's like the first big opening game of the season that matters. And then Sunday is when all the other games kick off.

Starting point is 00:29:59 So I want to read the sinkhole swallows man's leg as he crosses New York City Street. What? Yeah. So here we go. A man crossing a New York Street had his leg swallowed by a sinkhole after the road abruptly gave way beneath him. Photos and videos posted to social media show the unidentified man awkwardly sitting in the middle of a crosswalk, but with his right leg almost entirely vanishing into the asphalt. What the shit? What? Oh my God, it's real's real i need to see this do we have a photo yeah boom look at this oh my oh my god
Starting point is 00:30:34 what his leg just went into the asphalt how though how i don't know it really really did. Oh, my God. It looks like the ground just ate his leg. Yeah. The earth is starting to eat people. How is... The earth is done with humans. It's starting to just turn against us. But it's such a small... When I visualized this, I visualized a sinkhole, a giant asshole that opens up on the earth.
Starting point is 00:31:03 And I was like, how did he fall in? Maybe he had a prosthetic leg and the leg fell off or something. This is a dude walking on a crosswalk and a little tiny circle appeared right where his foot was and sucked up just his leg. And he's stuck in the ground, but it's such a tiny area. He can't even walk across streets anymore. The police and everyone showed up and they're just trying to help this guy. I guess they got him out because they put a cone over the hole in the ground. He can't even walk across streets anymore. The police and everyone showed up, and they're just, like, trying to help this guy, but he's like... I guess they got him out because they put a cone over the hole in the ground.
Starting point is 00:31:30 Oh, yeah. They must have, like... Hey, guys, don't drive over this hole in the ground. Wait, what the... Three firefighters were filmed working to pull him out of a hole. After some struggle, he was finally freed, but lacking one of his shoes and exposing a hole that appeared several inches wide in the ground. He seemed to be in a lot of pain.
Starting point is 00:31:50 I would be in pain too! That's like being forced to do the splits. Yeah, I know. That poor man's dick must hurt a great deal. Mama mia. That guy's wiener must be in a lot of pain.
Starting point is 00:32:06 All right. I also wanted to read the smart vest Thailand dogs. Okay. An advertising agency in Thailand has developed a smart vest that potentially could turn stray dogs into guardians of Bangkok. Equipped with a hidden video camera, the vest has sensors that transmit live streaming videos when the dog barks showing what the dog sees via mobile phone these are stray dogs on the street uh most of thai cities and the developer thought smart vest could help both the dogs and the community it'll make people feel that stray dogs can become night watches who is a set of guys dog cops yeah dog cop uh martin turner manager director of fuket based
Starting point is 00:32:50 soy dog foundation which was formed over a decade ago to save stray dogs and cats across thailand welcome the initiative turner says that there are many cases of cruelty against animals in thailand despite introduction of the country's first animal welfare law which penalizes wrongdoers with a maximum of two years imprisonment and 40 000 uh bot which is 1200 the project began in march this year and took about five months to materialize developers say a lot more tests are needed before the vest can be introduced into communities for trial runs really all it's going to be is like video footage of dog butts. Yeah, I know. And like trash cans. And like sniffing crotches.
Starting point is 00:33:30 There's not going to be much. They're going to be like, what did we get on the dog cam today, sir? Well, um, you're not going to believe this, but a lot of butt. A lot of butt. Just a lot of dog ass. Insane amount. Let me tell you the real news story that

It's one small step for a chicken sandwich and one giant leap for fast food. Uh-huh. On June 21st. Oh, we passed it. It's already in space? It's already in space. We missed this momentous occasion?
Starting point is 00:34:20 KFC plans to launch its zinger chicken sandwich into space via high altitude solar powered balloons known as stratalites. A word combining stratosphere and satellite. Of course, please. The chicken sandwich will zip up to about 28.5 miles above Earth. Not quite the 62 mile threshold to be considered the edge of space. But as the New York Times time notes it's cheaper than shooting off an orbiting rocket assuming the launch goes kfc ain't gonna spend that kind of money kfc ain't got rocket money they got balloon money you ought to make dollars if you want that
Starting point is 00:34:58 rocket money yeah they'll do the rockets yeah uh assuming the launch goes off the balloon and the sandwich will float above earth for at least four days while stratolite records tele telemetry Yeah! KFC is funding the flight of the Zinger Which will mark the balloon's first multi-day mission Worldview co-founder and chief technology officer Tabor McCallum told the website That the project will benefit both companies The mission offers edge of space access How does that? Pause!
Starting point is 00:35:39 Pause! That's bullshit! There's no way It'll benefit both companies How does that make There's no way It doesn't make any sense The edge of space Find the KFC

Starting point is 00:36:55 Oh my god. There it is. The first comment is, I can't believe they actually did this. I thought it was just a joke from the commercial. The next comment is, hopefully this drops on my property. Why? Why would you want that? Why would you want that? He's gonna eat it. KFC sandwiches,
Starting point is 00:37:14 even after like, ten minutes, everything in it is soggy and gross. Why would you want it after it's been in space for three days? Well, because quote, the time has come to explore beyond our known horizons to push kfc's spicy crispy chicken sandwich to new heights get out there will be questions like why there's some ad exec hired by kfc that thinks they are very very smart and they have just done something
