Speaker 3
This is this is pre-names. We just have Judge H. We don't even have full-named people running. But I like
Speaker 1
that. I like the idea that the two can sort of mix it up from their own little tables a little bit. She can get into his face. It'll be a little more NFL-y. I'm into it. Okay. I like that she has the spectacles
Speaker 3
that you hold, right? Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1
yeah. That's
Speaker 3
what a lady she is.
Speaker 1
Oh, no. I definitely think that that was the first time.
Speaker 3
I picture Madam, the puppet. Madam, do you remember Madam? No.
Speaker 2
Yes. Yes,
Speaker 3
thank you, Dan.
Speaker 2
You don't know Madam, Gareth? Madam was the one who- Did you never watch Solid Gold? When the guy died... What the fuck are you guys talking about? When the guy died, the puppeter... Oh my god, what is this? When the puppeter died... What in the name of shit is this? Hold on, Gareth. When he
Speaker 1
died... I'd rather not!
Speaker 2
Okay, now type in... What's her name? The puppet? Madam? Type in Madam and Car.
Speaker 1
And car because
Speaker 2
i believe this is the puppet that when the puppeteer died he left money so the puppet would be driven around in a car i'm looking at
Speaker 1
the puppeteer i'm not trying to be rude but he definitely banged it uh madam puppet and the car left to her.
Speaker 2
Oh, maybe it's a different, maybe it's a different, maybe I'm thinking of a different puppet.
Speaker 3
I'm confusing my puppet. How about
Speaker 1
this? I'll go with you on this one. Following Flowers' death, the Star Tabloid reported Madam was buried with him.
Speaker 2
Oh, shit. Oh, no, no, no. Flowers bequeath
Speaker 1
the puppets and his estate to a friend. Oh, manager and ultimately his caregiver. But he wasn't buried with it. That was fake. Oh, God, that was weird. That was weird for sure. I've never seen this puppet before. There was a guy who... That puppet was hysterical. It's not okay. That was a funny... That was a funny... That puppet had some quips,
Speaker 3
man. That puppet had jokes, yo. That puppet is still around. I thought you said it was just Bert.
Speaker 1
No, that was a rumor in the start. I'm just looking at a drawing of the puppet with Elon Musk. I should stop looking at the puppet.
Speaker 2
Well, yeah, it's not a good... Honestly, it's a scary puppet. It's
Speaker 1
an old puppet. Are you saying I should have a puppet? Am I picking up on that? Okay.
Speaker 2
Yeah. It's time. It's time to take your career to the next level.
Speaker 1
I have
Speaker 3
pictured you with your hand up somebody's ass for a long time. You're
Speaker 1
doing a podcast with him.
Speaker 3
The puppet.
Speaker 1
Dave's so mad he dropped out of focus. I know. What's up with that? It's
Speaker 2
worse.
Speaker 1
Oh my God. Madam, the puppet is fucking awesome. Okay.
Speaker 2
So these two are still talking in the judges chambers. Don't you come so close, ma'am. Don't you come so close with your nose. Your nose is long, ma'am, and sharp. Awful sharp. That's
Speaker 3
a way of, that's dog whistleblowing right there.
Speaker 1
Yeah, that is. Yep. Winky, winky. You
Speaker 3
all know what I'm talking about. They're
Speaker 1
right here in our city of Arkadelphia. Or as I call it, Philly songs.
Speaker 2
Philly saw would have been so much better. It's right there.
Speaker 3
Philly saw is what I am now going to call it.
Speaker 2
My nose, you brute, is not as long as your conscience. No, just, but I don't want to spy it, ma'am. You see, I'm drunk. And I don't want to spy your nose. Spoil my nose, sir.
Speaker 3
That's Arkansas there. They tell you that they're drunk like you didn't know. I've been drinking. Yeah, we can tell, Pawpaw. Get back in your trailer. We know. But they don't think they did it. I don't want to give anything away. But I've had couple of beers. I'm
Speaker 1
about to tip my hand in the direction that might shock some of you in this room. I've developed a bad drinking habit over the past two to six years. I might have a problem. Well, what if I told you I was on a blackout? What did you think about that? Like a constable revealing a murder. And I have something that I've never seen. I am fucking hammered out of my titties. I'm shitfaced. I've been shitfaced the whole time. Your wiener's caught in your zipper. That's right. Some of y'all are playing checkers. I've been playing Risk mixed with Battleship the whole time. What? I don't know.
Speaker 3
Oh, no. Okie
Speaker 1
dokie. He's talking to a piñata.
Speaker 2
Oh, my God. So she says, spoil my nose, sir. Would you strike me, sir? Answer me, sir. Am I to apprehend personal violence? And again, the offending pro... I don't know what that word is. Was thrust into the fellow's face. No. What is the goddamn judge? I don't know. No one's here to stop this. What the judge is
Speaker 1
like, this is pretty good. I mean, at one
Speaker 2
point, it's inspected, so there's people watching. Judge H is
Speaker 3
enjoying a drink. Yeah,
Speaker 1
H is there. He's
Speaker 3
got a little moonshine and he's just kicked back.
Speaker 2
Mm-hmm. Maybe
Speaker 3
eating a biscuit biscuit.
Speaker 1
Yeah, could be. This is the year they were invented.
Speaker 2
No violence, ma'am, but you see, ma'am, I'm drunk. I acknowledge the corn and you're no beauty. I ain't to be deceived, ma'am. You ain't no beauty. I surprising the woman I can bear makes me sick. Sort of riles my stomach, ma'am. And when my stomach's riled, ma'am, I else flings up. Wow.
Speaker 1
That's a good ending. Good closing argument. The jury's like, wow, that's pretty good.
