Summary
Eric Church dropped a new song ten minutes before this episode was recorded. So, you could say there was a lot on the mind. Here are a couple things that were covered across (a pretty large) spectrum:
The moral legality of fireworks.
Dua Lipa.
Taylor Swift's new project. (Of the 15 new songs on the album, 6 of them got explicit stamps.)
More on the Carl Lentz situation intro'd last week.
Cadillac Jack's Taylor problem. (By that we mean he consistently drops names throughout the episode. I'd tell you when they happen but I lost count.)
Donna announcing Caddy's new job. (It'll be a stretch, but his first goal is to beat the 2020 revenue of a certain NBC star.)
Moving into an NYC storefront for Christmas.
The Times Person (or People) of the Year.
Milton's Pinestraw Bandit of the Year.
Having folks come over to candle some ears.

| 0:19.3 | Caddy's wife. Are you a purist when it comes to fireworks? Like, do you believe that fireworks should only be fired off on the 4th of July? Yes. Okay. And I'm not a fan of them even then. Okay. Why? This is loud, distracting. Dogs go crazy. When you have small kids, they go crazy. No one can go to sleep. No one respects an unwritten curfew. You know, let's be done by 11 p.m. But there are people that will also shoot off fireworks any day of the year. But around the 4th of July, it becomes like the second, third, fourth, and fifth. Well, and I think fireworks have become like the ending for everything. Remember when you used to light the, you used to do the tree lighting at Macy's at Lenox? Lenox. Every year. And at the end, they would do the fireworks. Right. Well, now, where I'm working right now, they've done fireworks for 12 days in a row. And I just want to tell you how different the world is. The first day that they set the fireworks off, the high schooler, the kiddo that works with me, was like, Ms. Donna, get down, gunfire, and ran and closed the door. Let me say this. You do not work at Linux. No, I do not. |
| 1:27.9 | Because at Linux, right now, yes. |
| 1:30.0 | It's definitely a possible. It's a possibility, yeah. But I was like, no, no, no. Those are fireworks. They're doing fireworks 12 days in a row. But he was dead serious. It just shows you how the world has changed so much. Like in the past, you would have thought they're fireworks. |
| 1:42.7 | But I think, like, fireworks are all the time now. |
| 1:45.5 | Like, it's the ending for everything. |
| 1:47.7 | What do you think? Like |
| 1:48.5 | weddings, Christmas, Santa Claus, everything. And the joke is about Disney. Disney shoots them off |
| 1:57.5 | during the day. Who shoots all fireworks during the day? Disney. Disney. And only Disney. Yeah. Okay. I just wonder if you were a purist or not. When it comes to fireworks. No. Yes, you are. They only should be shot off. Again, if even then. Okay. Reach out. Let's communicate to between episodes. We have a dedicated voicemail text line for this podcast.
