Transcription

Chapter 1: What health advice does Tracy give Boomer about heart health?

0.031 - 26.123

Tracy in Manahawken. What's going on, Tracy? Hey there. So, Boomer, forget the garlic tablets. Cayenne with honey or olive oil is all you're going to need for your heart. I've heard that. It's effective. Yep, look it up. It's great for you. You can have it every day. It's kind of fun, right, Cayenne? So the interesting thing is at night I will take a tablespoon of olive oil and honey together.

0

26.947 - 54.216

But not without the cayenne. I've got to add the cayenne. All right. Yeah, thanks, Tracy. Why not? I just keep pumping stuff in there until I find something that works. I feel like if I had cayenne pepper and olive oil in the same combination, it would just be like turning on a faucet on my ass. I'm just telling you, the olive oil and honey at night works. To get your stuff going?

0

54.396 - 79.081

Well, it gets everything going, yeah. I got to start taking a Metamucil or something now. It's about time. I just... Well, just get ready, boys, because starting April 1st, I'm on Medicare. What? Yep. Wow. Yeah. That's right. And I got to go through ARP for some supplemental stuff. And we don't need people, anybody calling in telling me what to do and whatnot. I know what to do.

0

79.181 - 109.405

I have people that tell me what to do. They invest and get the best things. So, 65. Medicare and ARP. Man. God damn. You get a lot of discounts, though, for being 65. Yeah. What are some of the best discounts? I don't know. I haven't checked them out yet. That doesn't start until April. Best discounts for 60-year-olds. Okay, here we go. Some of the things that you can do. Okay.

0

110.227 - 132.883

You get 15% off at Kohl's on Wednesdays. Where's the closest Coles around here? They're definitely, they're around. Is there a Coles around here? Yeah, there's another. I think there was one, there was definitely one in Mastic Shirley. Mastic Shirley? I'm not going out to Mastic Shirley. For a Kohl's and a discount, you should. What else? Give me something else.

Chapter 2: What does Boomer reveal about signing up for Medicare?

132.903 - 156.301

All right. Walgreens, 20% off eligible items first Tuesday of the month. Okay, that's a good thing. I like a Walgreens. Everybody likes a good Walgreens. Hertz up to 20% off for seniors. Okay. If you're renting a car. What kind of car? Is it like I can't get my SUV or what? Well, I don't know. That I'm not sure. AMC Theaters, you want to go to a movie, discounted tickets. Like it. Yeah, yeah.

0

156.321 - 173.67

I don't know what Harris Teeter is. What is Harris Teeter? Never heard of it. Grocery store. Oh, it's a grocery store? I know they're in Maryland for sure. Publix, if you're down in Florida, 5% off on Wednesdays. 5% off on Wednesdays. Yeah. There's a lot of stuff that's on a specific day. I don't know if I can set up a schedule like that.

0

173.69 - 183.72

It seems like Tuesdays and Wednesdays is what they're going for. Let's see. Papa John's, 20% off online orders. If you're going to get some Papa John's.

0

Chapter 3: What discounts are available for seniors when they turn 65?

184 - 206.508

I have nothing against Papa John's, but I live in the pizza capital of the world. But are they providing discounts for you because you're 65? I'm sorry. It's Villa Milano or death. Marriott, anyone 62 and older, so you've had a couple years to do that. Yeah, I've had a couple years of that. Yeah, save at least 10% on a hotel stay. I mean, they take care of you.

0

206.548 - 234.736

IHOP offers a 65-plus menu with discounted prices. If I go to IHOP, I can go to Fouquet. Fouquet? Yeah. Is Fouquet giving you a senior discount? Well, no, it's the hotel, but they make the best pancakes. Oh, my God. Amtrak, 10% off. Like that. Yeah. Subsidized Amtrak, losing so much money to them in the postal service. Oh, Denny's and Chili's also getting involved.

0

Chapter 4: What are some specific senior discounts mentioned in the episode?

234.756 - 257.61

And again, nothing against Denny's and Chili's. If I'm in Kentucky, I may go to that or Cracker Barrel. But when I'm here, we got diners all over the place. See, this I don't like. I got a double-decker diner in Manhasset. No, I know. But these are just the things. This is, of course, the person who texts us during this segment. I just looked down. Oh, Jesus. Peter Schwartz. Of course.

0

258.071 - 277.014

This guy's the discount. He could have read these all. He doesn't even need to go to the Internet for this. Oh, let's face it. How old is he? He's probably been waiting for this. That kid cannot wait to get to 65. I don't know, probably 58, somewhere around there. Yeah, I think he's 58 or 59. Chili's, you get 10% off your check but excluding alcohol.

0

277.875 - 299.177

So you can't go in there and drink your face off as a 65-year-old and think Chili's is going to take that 10% off. Nope, they're not doing it. Let's go to Dan in West Orange. What's going on, Dan? Hey, Ben. I love you guys and missed you guys. Glad you're back. I'm a gynecologist and I happen to have a patient that had

0

Chapter 5: How does Boomer feel about the variety of discounts for seniors?

299.545 - 321.87

I've read on the internet that she could put garlic inside of her vagina, and she came into my office six months later, and it was still in there, and I had to remove it. Oh, wait a minute. Come on. Was it a clove? Yeah. Or was it a pig? Yeah, a clove. A clove of garlic. It was a clove. And what was the reason she put it in her vagina? yeast infection.

0

322.471 - 342.44

She read on the internet you could put galler clothes inside your vagina, so when I saw it, it was sprouts coming out. Oh, my God. Stop. Vagina. You know what you should do? What you should do is you should do like what the pimple popper does. You should do like a whole Instagram reel on stuff like this. Oh, God. No, I'm not. I didn't have my phone with me.

0

342.46 - 370.445

It was the craziest thing I've ever seen. How old was this woman? Yeah, how old was she? 72-ish. Oh, my God. God bless you, Dan. Someone had to do this, and you did it. Sprouts. That, like, all things considered, that might be the most disgusting thing I've ever heard in my life. Think about that. Did you ever hear about the gerbil story? What, Richard Gere? I just said the gerbil story.

0

370.465 - 404.592

I didn't say anybody's name. Oh. Well, that's like an urban legend. It never happened. But you've heard about it. Yeah, yeah, but that's not happening. That's not any... Something living up in there? Yeah. Yeah, I don't know how long it stays. Scratch or... Yeah. Sphincter? I mean, that... Yeah. That is... Stephen wants me to go back to Orlando Airport right about now. Let's go to Bo in Brooklyn.

0

404.632 - 427.186

Bo, what's happening? Hey, how's it going? First time caller. Thanks, Bo. What made you want to call in this morning, Bo? So, I'm 30 years old. My dad's a chiropractor. He's very holistic. When I was growing up, he'd always have a bunch of vitamins for me and my brother to take before school. And he'd be yelling at us, take the vitamins, take this, take that. One of them was the garlic pill.

427.727 - 431.071

And that thing, like, I was burping garlic all day long.

Chapter 6: What humorous stories are shared about garlic and health?

431.131 - 451.84

I definitely smelled like garlic. My friends, my parents, when they drove us to, like, practices, would say, Oh, they're so nice. The kids, the boys, but they always smell like garlic, you know? And then on top of that, so the garlic pill was one thing. And then the worst thing was the fish oil. So we had like a big tablespoon of fish oil and he would say, drink the fish oil, drink the fish oil.

0

452.2 - 474.306

So one day I threw it up all over my kitchen floor. And then from that point on, my dad stopped force feeding us like pills and oils and all this stuff before school. You know what? It's amazing, Bo, that your first call really has to do with fish oil and garlic and throwing up. We appreciate that. Yeah, thanks, Bo, man. I love the fact that you checked in today for the first time ever.

0

474.758 - 495.788

I mean, I guess the garlic thing is really like these garlic pills. That's why the one that you took is advertising itself as odorless because obviously this is a thing. And it is definitely a thing. And by the way, it's not odorless. And I'm sending it all back. False advertising. I mean, I want to sue their ass. Yeah, well, no one hates a bait and switch more than Al.

0

496.008 - 508.169

Al will send that email for you. He loves that type of stuff. All right, you want to do this for me? He loves it. Yes, I do. The other thing that I found out about this... Which really annoyed me, and this is definitely an old man spot. Okay.

0

508.189 - 536.124

I just wanted to have, I was recommended by somebody in my life who is a doctor that these are good, this would be good for you, given everything that's going on. So I said, fine, I'll give it a shot. So I ordered it. And then I see that it looks like it's a subscription service. Then I had to spend an hour yesterday trying to figure out how to shut down the subscription service.

537.085 - 556.232

And I literally probably went... 20 deep into the site to finally find out how to end the subscription. Oh, they hide that, and they do a good job of hiding it. Same thing here. See, that's, again, this is why we have the Consumer Protection Agency. Where the F are they?

556.433 - 575.099

That's like they make the expensing thing so tough and so difficult with this company, so you just give up, and you're like, I'm not going to do this anymore. That's what they'll do. I can't find how to cancel the subscription. I'm annoyed. I'm just going to give up and keep this subscription. Yeah, but I'm not, so I ended up getting to it, finally. So you were committed to this.

575.279 - 598.548

You were committed to this. I wanted to give it a shot, but yeah, but I did not subscribe to it. Okay, good. But somehow it said that I did. So I had to cancel it. Yeah, I understand. All right. I got it. I got it. Now I smell like garlic when I'm not supposed to. On top of all of that, I'm annoyed. All right. You know, who's catching all the shrapnel out of all this is Al.

598.629 - 618.486

Yeah, you know, he definitely is, 100%. All right, but he's going to love, though, sending that email to this company, though. Nothing makes him happier. Like, you know how the golf trip, that's the greatest thing that we can do? Like, the greatest thing that Al can do is send an angry email about a bait-and-switch when he feels the company is screwing the customer.
