Trainer Games on Prime Video January 8th. Watch the trailer on trainergames.com it was a Christmas party eventormation and oh my gosh, the fridge is jammed. Let's clean out the sound fridge. Armstrong and Getty One more thing. We're actually having our company Christmas thingy today. It's a lunch luncheon. Lunch at 11:30. The women are excited. I've noticed in the out and about women get more excited about this sort of thing than dudes do in general. Yeah. Generally. I don't know how many Christmas parties you'd ever have if it was just guys or if you did have them, they'd be much different. That's an interesting thought. It probably wouldn't get organized. I remember a brief period in my life, very brief, where I was involved with a very social woman. I remember one Christmas room. I like to eight parties as I had like two a week the last month. It was like, crazy. That had to be rough on you. It was. I haven't been to a Christmas party in years of any kind, work or anybody's house. But I'm going to the lunch today. I'll make an appearance anyway. There you go. Mostly because the boss said yesterday, coming tomorrow. And I said sure, not knowing what he was talking about. And. And then I kind of roped myself into it. All right, let's clean out sand fridge. We had so much great audio. Sorry, metal guy. You're quite right. Let's start with something we did play on the show, but it's just so damn good. Michael, 10, please. Hey, it's Gary Busey, and I have got a great Christmas present for you. Listen to this. That's what a goose sounds like when they're flying. They're letting you know they're up there. Yeah. You get a bunch of geese together, they're hawking in the air. So that's the third time I've heard it. For somehow, for some reason, I overlooked the fact that he says, I've got a Christmas present for you. I've got a great Christmas present. This is my Christmas present from. From actor Gary Busey. And it was. It was a gift. You're going to honk like a goose. All right. Well, when he portrays the multiple geese that I felt like I was there because he's Hong Kong. He was an Oscar nominee. He knows what he's doing. I also love the fact that this isn't a selfie video. Someone shot this of him. Wow, cinematographer. Yeah. What was he wearing? Like a sweater and some ball cap, and his hair's all crazy coming out of the bottom. I was gonna say, does he look nuts slash homeless? Oh, yeah. That's on brand. Yeah. Yep. Yep. Okay, so this is Michael. We're going to go to 15. This is a. A cooking tip. Do we need anything more, Katie on this? He's. He's like a punk rocker. So he cusses a lot. He's covered in tattoos, and his hair is like Past his shoulders. So it's kind of like a chef. Yeah. TV chef guy. Yeah. And his name is Chef Nathan. Okay. Apparently, if you microwave garlic for 10 seconds, it peels super easily. If this is true, I'll be stoked. I feel complex about this. I don't tend to enjoy cooking in the microwave. 10 seconds away we go heaps easier. Eh? Ooh, looks warm. Oh, because you put them in the microwave, you f head. Okay, that's one out of four. Cough. It works. It does. It works. I hate that. Oh, my God. It really works. First of all, who's your companion? But what. Cheer up, baby. I. I couldn't understand what he was saying. What. What did he peel or. It was a clove of garlic, and he took. He broke the. The garlic, took it and put it in the microwave. And I tried. I saw this video. So I was like, this can't work, because peeling garlic is a pain. It is one of the things I hate to do the most. I love fingernails or whatever. Yeah, I love to cook, but doing that sucks. And I tried it, and it works. 10 seconds. Cool. Yeah. Yeah, that's a great tip. I love cooking Chinese food from scratch in a wok. It tastes unbelievably good. But the prep work to me is. Is so tedious, and I'm not good at it, and so I don't do it. I need a servant or a slave or something to do the prep work. I need a slave. I did get. That was a joke. I need a Sue chef. Yes, there is a. Pay them a living wage. I'll either hire someone to do this or bind someone in chattel slavery. One of the two. Joe, just to let you know, there is a gadget on. On the interwebs where I. I. It's called, like, it's not the slap chop, but it's something. Yeah, I know. We have one of those. Okay, that saved. That's also saved my. You have a slap chop. Yeah, it's like this little box thing, and you just cut, like, an onion into quarters, and then you put it on top and you bring this thing down and it rotates as you. As you. Yeah, dice this stuff. It's a good, good reminder. Thank you. Then the space hamster flew his hot air balloon all the way to the bottom of the ocean. Where did that story come from? Book dream? Nope.

Watch the trailer on trainer games.com let's see. Moving along. Oh, this is funny. I actually saw this video yesterday. This is a band by the name of the Doohickeys, who are doing an updated version of the Christmas classic, which is not at all rapey. Baby, it's cold outside. My mother will start to worry. You live with your mom? My father will be pacing the floor. Wait, how old are you? So really, I'd better scurry. The app says you're 29. Well, maybe just a half a drink more. No, you need to get out of my house. I'm freaking out. What are they gonna say? What's in the street? She made the drink, neighbor. She made the drink. What? Oh, My God. Oh, my God. I'm going to jail. I ought to say. No, no, no, no. This can't be happening. You haven't even moved. You're not even trying to leave. I'm calling your ass in an Uber. Baby, it's cold outside. Alexi will be here in two minutes. I like the way they turned it around, because that's kind of true, too. She's like, you know, she's kind of inviting herself over and maybe, you know, all these years I've been listening to it with the assumption that he wants her to stay, but you don't know that it might have been. Yeah, that's okay. Wait, how old are you? It's not that cold. Go ahead. Yeah, okay, which. Which leads us up. Your mom, the absolute 29. Ah, that's really funny. So this is the awful Internet person of the month. She comes across an elderly woman working at Target who is wearing a patriotic T shirt that includes the name of Charlie Kirk in the way that Target people just have to wear a red, clean, red shirt and they put their name tag on top of it, etc. Listen to this, would you? I can wear red, any red shirt. The Charlie Kirk shirt. Yes. Oh, yes, I know. Are you stupid? No. Why the would you wear that? You're at work at Target. You support a racist. It's not racist. Yes, he is. I'm sorry that. I'm not gonna stand here and argue with you. You're not. You should go get your manager. You should not be allowed to wear the at work. That's your opinion. No, the opinion is he's a racist and you support him. That's your opinion. This is going to be taken above your head. That's insane. God, I hate you. I could not hate you. Are you effing stupid? She says to the old lady. That's the classic. They think we're evil. We think they're annoying or nuts. You know, because I see kind of T shirts all the time from things that I don't agree with politically, and I just roll my eyes. Well, whatever. Good for you. Yeah. Coexist or, you know, whatever the hell it is. You're a Kamala Hair Station or whatever, but I don't think you're evil and need to call your boss and argue with an old woman who's working at Target. God, you're a horrible human being. Horrible, horrible, horrible, horrible. Well, the. The utter lack of any argument in the classic sense. It's just. You're effing stupid. You're a racist. Oh, Man, I do hate those people. There's some hate speech for you. I hate you. But anyway. Happened to you. Yeah. Well, they have Katie. Yeah. She. I mean, first of all, she filmed this herself and posted it because she's so certain. Yeah. That everybody agrees with her. Right. And so then it goes viral. And of course, like, the Internet does. They figured out where she works. She works in healthcare, so. In California. Of course. Yeah, in California. Because this happened in Chico. And she. I mean, they actually. The health care facility that she works for put out a statement saying, like, listen, we've heard about the video. Our phone lines are so jammed with people trying to call us about this that our actual patients can't get through. So please email us. Like, she. Yeah, she's. She's done. And there. Somebody started some fund for the woman that was getting. Whose name is Jeannie, by the way. Somebody started a fund for Jeannie, and they've raised over like, $120,000 already because. Okay, that's. It's the other. There's the other wrinkle in these stories, the way they always go. And this person should end up rich because that person. What? You end up fired, you end up rich. Internet justice. Exactly. Yeah. Wow. So how do we feel about the Internet vengeance? I don't want her to lose her job. If anybody has it coming, she did. So the. Has nothing to do with her work duties, although she displayed herself as an awful human. The biggest difference with this one is she posted it. So you invited the world to comment on this. You literally invited the world to comment on this. Yeah, she really thought she was doing something. It's way different than if somebody had videoed this and then posted it. And then everybody goes after. She's still awful. Right, Right. Okay, so let's. Let's break this down into a couple of different questions. Number one, okay, so she posted it. I think it's legitimate that people post their hatred and derision. I have not mentioned her name, though. I know it, because I don't want to be part of that piling on because mob justice is rarely just justice. Would you agree, Jack, or what? Yeah, yeah, yeah. I don't. I don't need to be part of that. Or is that just me keeping my hands clean? No, because there's nut jobs are going to slash her tires or, you know, whatever. I'm with you on that. Because all of her social media has been shut down since this blew up. But before it was shut down, there's now pictures of her daughter and her husband all over the place. Oh, no, no. Yeah, so it escalates. Real sorry for your daughter because you got a bad person for a mom. Well, her daughter, the apple didn't fall very far, let's just put it that way. They took a picture in front of a vehicle that had a Trump sticker, and they're both doing a gun to their neck like Charlie Kirk when he got shot. What is wrong with you people? Which brings us to the employer. Now, I don't think you ought to fire your employee just because the Internet mob comes for them. Don't. In fact, don't do that, because the Internet mob is notoriously fickle and unfair. Yeah, if you wait 48 hours, it'll be ancient history. Now, we are by nature political and conservatively political. So this, our operation, might be a bad example. But I'm trying to figure out if you know what I'm trying to picture. And this is unlikely to the point of hilarity. If Michelangelo posted a viral video of himself utterly viciously and unfairly chewing out an elderly person, I wouldn't. I wouldn't want to work with him anymore. Well. And Michael, let's not even in fun. Let's not use you as an example, because there's so much. I wouldn't want to work with. Me either. But if Johnny, the producer who we employed, give me some coffee video, I would not. I would not work with them anymore. No, I wouldn't. Yeah, no, it would change my outlook on the person. Sure. No, I don't want to work with you anymore. Either of you did that. And if I'm the boss in that operation, of course, in Cal. Unicornia, you've got to come up with this convoluted, stupid communist plan for improvement. Try not to be a monster anymore. Amoral monster, Johnny. And we've got to meet twice a week to see how you're measuring up to my request that you not. Not be a monster anymore. I don't know exactly how you deal with that. God, what a terrible person. Oh, yeah, yeah. Just awful. If you have lost the capacity to say, I might be wrong. You have lost your humanity. I think Voltaire said that. Or if not Voltaire, somebody Voltaire adjacent. I had been saying for years, though, that we needed just a little dose of vigilante justice. Little. And the problem with it is it always gets out of hand. And that's why you can't really have it. Yeah, but we do have a little bit of it now in the modern world, you get on the wrong side of the. The Internet mob. Things can get pretty ugly for you. Also consider, I mean I think that her, her profession takes like it should be considered here because she works in health care. So we're thinking like bedside manner. Yeah. People that, you know, she's unhinged kind of a thing. I don't know. And vicious. Yeah. I mean if somebody is clearly a vicious person, I don't think they're well suited for health care. Yeah. I mean, what if for instance, an elderly Gary Busey were to come in looking for the assistance he so clearly needs? I mean she berate him for his shirt. Let me ask you guys. If that had happened right in front of you and you're at Target, would you guys have stepped in there? Hey, leave her alone, you lunatic. Would have been I shoot out another family's child at Arlington National Cemetery, Michael. So. Yes, that's right. Yes, I would. Good to hear. Well, I guess that's it then.
