Do you ever get caught in that middle ground where you're beating it by a minute and then you slow down a little and then the minutes back, you're like, God damn it. Waze needs to really get his shit together and not be changing the times on me. Stake with the exact arrival time that you gave me. I will see if I got there sooner or if you were wrong and you lied to me because Waze is constantly, Oh, no, here's an extra 10 minutes. Oh, look, you got here right on time. I was like, No, I didn't get here on time. You told me I was got here 12 minutes ago, and you changed the time while I wasn't looking at the screen. Do you think I'm an idiot, Waze? No, I know you lied to me. They're always right. They're always right. When you're pulling in, it always says one minute left. Exactly. You're exactly right. It's a sliding scale. They're constantly changing the arrival time. It's bullshit.

[00:00:49]

I'd love to just go back for a second and-.

[00:00:53]

When are we coming back?

[00:00:54]

-show everybody. We've been on the air for 45 seconds. I'd like to show everybody in our audience, rewinding for just a second, that Stugart, of all the people on the planet with his resume, is saying what's not smart enough is a technology that tells you somehow exactly how many minutes into the future you will arrive at a place because we have a satellite technology that would have seemed inconceivable 15 years ago back when… You know what? Let's make it 20 years ago when there are no cell phones, you were lost, and you got to stop and ask somebody, How do I get over here or.

[00:01:37]

Pull out a map? I'm printing out MapQuest. I'm not stopping to ask. I'm looking at this sheet that I printed out, and I'm going to figure this thing out. Yeah, but it's.

[00:01:45]

Always off.

[00:01:46]

By a minute or two.

[00:01:47]

That's all I'm saying. But you're saying that that's not that smart. How are you getting it right? A technology that is allowing us how much traffic is up ahead. I'm always saying, How do you know that I'm on this side street alley, that you have all the satellite imprints. You are tracking me all the time, aren't you, Waze? You know where I am all the time. You, my phone, have more information on me, dangerous information that can end everything I care about than any other product I have.

[00:02:17]

In my life. But then the very next moment you're on the highway, it thinks you're going the wrong direction. You know what I mean? Sometimes it's just like...

[00:02:24]

Very inconsistent. I'm not saying it's not inexact. It's just less inconsistent than, you know, humans. Be exact, though. Well, you be exact. I can't. I'm not a computer. I'm a human. But this particular thing that you're asking to be exact, I would imagine changes minute to minute over 24 minutes, where traffic unclogs, and so you get there three minutes later. It's pretty close to exact. And I am not quite so jaded yet, Stugat, that I am still not fascinated or amazed by the fact that my telephone can take me exactly where it is that I want to go. I am not yet numb to advancements and progress and technology that this… I know the rest of you are like, What are you talking about, Dan? I've had this all my life. What's the big deal? I'm telling you that I recall a time when if I got lost outside of a stadium looking for somebody, I couldn't just call them and find them. I couldn't just text them or find them. I couldn't pin them. I'd have a real problem on my hands trying to find someone outside of a stadium where there are 100,000 people and a cell phone doesn't exist.

[00:03:39]

I miss getting lost. They've really taken that ability and that luxury away from us. I don't even remember what that feels like. I wish I could get lost more often, honestly. You could just get out of anything by saying, I couldn't find it. I got lost. I couldn't make it. I'm sorry. Now it's like one U-turn. You just want to get out of stuff. Now you're 100 % right. Took one of my excuses away. Now you're alwaysNow you're always a U-turn away from it finding your way again. Let me get lost. Let me be by myself where no one can find me. To the point of asking people for directions, what if you stop at a place where the guy doesn't know where he's at either? He just got there. He's like, Yeah, buddy, make a left up here. Make a right up there. You'll be good. Then you get there and you're like, Oh, shit. I'm even more lost than I was. I don't know English. That's you. You're 100% that guy that would tell someone the right way. The tree, make a left. We're good. We're in America.

[00:04:28]

I didn't want to hurt your feelings by saying how many times I've wished you'd get lost.

[00:04:36]

Me? On the way to work, that doesn't really work as well. I forgot how to get there.

[00:04:45]

But you hurt his feelings anyway. It still happens to me, by the way. Just because I have the technology doesn't mean that I don't get lost.

[00:04:53]

You wish to get lost?

[00:04:53]

You were driving in a cul-de-sac, in circles. I know, and stewing in my own shame because of how often that it happened. I'm like, I'll show both my wife and Waze, and here I am. Oh, this dead end wasn't here before.

[00:05:07]

Well, now there's a shame to being lost. Before, it was a badge of honor. You get lost and you could figure it out. I think it was always prettysame thing. Now it's like you're not allowed to get lost because you have all these technologies that tell you how to go. So if you get lost, you're really in a dead. Where before, if you get lost, you just got lost. The other day, I had to take someone home. I had to take Kugler home, right? And I'm driving to take them home, and they moved the exit onto 95 from one side of the street to the other.

[00:05:33]

Side of the street. I've seen so many possible accidents there because it's the dumbest... I know what you're talking about. It's the dumbest possible way that they're doing that. I see so many people stopped on the middle of the highway because they're like, I was trying to go to my right, and they put what used to be on my right all the way on my left. The way this city is constructed is an apocalyptic calamity.

[00:05:55]

I mean, it's just a disaster. Don't blame the Cubans. Jack's theft. I end up going on 995 North instead of South. He's like, Are you supposed to go this way? I'm like, Nope, but we're going this way now. Then he's like, Well, you think you can find the next exit? I'm like, Leave me alone. That's a great. I'm doing you a favor. You asked me to take you home. You somehow got to work without a car today. You're relying on me to get you home. We never had this conversation. Then what happens? He goes home and he makes fun of me to his wife. That's all he does. I think he's only my friend so that I can have these disasters and these calamities that he can make fun of in the privacy of his own home. Billy, I think we're lost.

[00:06:33]

-he doesHe was my limited fakes. -he speaks very soft.

[00:06:36]

-very quietly. He does. He may not work here. He's not here today. He may have quit last week and told us, and we just don't know. He's actually on air right now speaking. We just get here. Betaman. What? Tell like it is. The only thing that's better than one of them is two of them.

[00:06:59]

Talking back and forth to each other.

[00:07:01]

The only place where that's.

[00:07:03]

Better is at the voting booth.

[00:07:05]

Presume two forms of.
