What's up everybody? Welcome to the Smoking Tire podcast. Today's episode is brought to you by

Off the Record. We love Off the Record out there on the road looking out for us. If I get pulled

over, I know who I'm calling. It ain't my daddy. It ain't my wife. It's O-T-R. They are looking out

for me. And if I get a ticket, big or small, they're going to fight that ticket all the way to the top.

And then I get that text message a couple of months later saying, your ticket has been dismissed.

That's my favorite text to get.

That's better than a drunk text from an ex.

You know what I mean?

It's a sober text from your attorney saying, you can breathe now.

Off the record.com slash TST. That's off the record.com slash TST. If you get pulled over,

don't plead guilty. Get off the record.

We could do a Patreon just restaurant stories someday.

We should.

Zach's restaurant stories, I bet, are fucking proper.

I mean, Carl's worth insanity.

Yeah.

All right, I mean, Anthony Bourdain's made a career on that. Very true. Telling crazy restaurant stories. Yeah. Yeah. All right. It's where a bunch of fucking pirates work. Yeah. That's why. It's artists meet criminals, meet, like, really interesting people who might have gotten, I know, ejected other businesses, or they don't want to be in those other businesses. They like working at night. They like the pressure. I mean, there's an adrenaline junkie aspect to it. Yeah. It's action. It's definitely. It is the most stressful job I've ever had, for sure. I've like, I've had like five production nightmares in my life.

I had six months of server nightmares after I quit.

Yeah.
