 Welcome to our holistic health, fitness, and sports talk show. I hope everyone out there, great Thanksgiving holiday, 2023, and there is my co-host, the illustrious, the one and only, Commodore Jeff Zanbello. How are you, sir? We are live. Good. Good workout today, and getting ready to go to the gym in about an hour again. Right. He's a competitive, drug-free, competitive athlete. He can be involved in several strength-related competition, and right now, he's focusing on swinging the mace, or what is known as the gata in ancient times. And you are preparing for a vintage strength games event, I believe, that's coming up when? June. Oh, forget it. You got tons of time for that. Tons of time. I'm ready for it right now. I want there to be more, but, you know, there's not enough events. I don't know why. You know what? I want to see. America has, what, 300 million people? Yeah. Whatever the hell it has, I don't know what the hell it has. Yeah. Who knows now? I mean, I want to see you defeat those younger whippersnappers. I want to see you, you know. Okay. Let me do this properly. I'm going to pipe aboard the Commodore, Jeff Zanbello. He is officially piped aboard. You have to do this right. Chase off the evil spirits. Yep. I had a great time at my sisters, you know, yeah, I saw the big snake. Oh, yeah. Now that was the, that was the, you're trying to put them in a pretzel position. Yeah. No, that was the candy cane looking one. Yeah. Yeah. There she is, Lisa, but where's her video? Oh, Lisa's coming on? Yeah. Yeah. What happened? Where's your video? Yeah. What's going on here? She's got a new high tech phone, you know, what the hell's going on? It's not problematic iPhone, it's an Android, but anyway, hopefully she'll be back with everything straightened out. So whatever happened with the crow's nest, is it still around? No. They sell the property. No, it's closed and they're going to tear it down. For what? Condominiums or another restaurant or a discount shopping center or what? Who the hell knows? That's too bad. It was around when I was a kid, it was at one time, I know my late mother would say we used to be called beef and brew when they specialize in hot roast beef sandwiches. Yeah. You know, like up in Massachusetts, Kelly's famous, Kelly's famous roast beef. In Revere. Revere Beach. Yeah. The first Kelly. I went to the one in Saugus on Route 1, which was the first East Coast interstate highway. Yeah. Saugus. And anyway, I want to, where is the maritime province's premier TV evangelist, the one and only the Reverend Dr. Mikey Zambello? Oh, yeah, yeah, he's, he's at one of his friends house today and then he'll be going to church again tonight. Right. Because I know he has a big congregation. Yeah. Oh, he was on a Christmas float last night for the church. A Christmas float. Yeah. For the Santa Claus parade, he was on a float. Is that, was he drinking a root beer float, ice cream soda or root beer float on the float? No, he was out waving, waving to everybody in the city. Right. Yeah. Send me your tithe, send me your 10% of your life savings, your life savings. Exactly. Yeah. Yeah. But anyway, we were starting. It reminds me of the leprechaun, but they're with the pot of gold. Oh, me gold, where's me gold? Oh, me pot of gold. Oh, me lucky charms. Me lucky charm. The founder. Little diddly Dickie Doyle. Yeah. I already took the toilet paper, $800 piece of toilet paper. Oh, you mean the certificate? Yeah. I wonder if those certificates have any college, or worth any college credit. They have any academic value. Yeah. They're probably, probably worth as much as the place mat they give you at the diner. Yeah, exactly. If you get a new puppy that you put on the floor, there's no use for that. Potty training. Yeah. Anyway, we were talking about sports in terms of baseball. First, I'm very happy that the Red Sox got rid of Cham Bloom, that skin flint, cheap bastard. He let Mookie Betts and Humphrey Bogarts. Yeah. Yeah. Xander Bogarts. Xander Bogarts. He let him go because he don't want to pay what they're probably what they're worth. I know. You must work faster. You must work faster. Right. And what happened? The Red Sox was, they finished last. Alex Cora was so laid back, you know, he wasn't a good leader. No, you got to, if you don't, if you're not a fiery passionate manager, your people are going to slack off and they're going to, you know, they're going to figure, hey, I get paid really well anyway. Yeah. You know, as opposed to somebody like the late Earl Weaver of the Orioles and Billy Martin of the Yankees. Billy Martin. He wouldn't put up with that crap. No, no, or Sparky Anderson of the Big Red Machine. You know, these guys wouldn't put up with any of that shit. Even Don, even Don Zimmer. Oh, Popeye Don Zimmer. Yeah. Yeah. I remember he called him Popeye. Yeah. I think he passed away to late Don Zimmer. Oh, yeah. And he was a hot attack waiting. Yeah. Well, you know, this guy retired Terry Francona that. Yep. He, he ended his career with the, I won't say the Cleveland Guardians because it's I called the Cleveland Indians. Cleveland Indians. That's right. He was with the Red Sox when they, they won the World Series. Yeah. He might have been with them since 1918. Yeah. Yeah. And then I think the Red Sox won one or two more. They won two more. Yeah. I don't know if it was under Francona, but they did. Yeah, it was. It was. Wow. So he, he had a nice little collection of World Series rings. Now, general managers, you know, they're, they're always quick to blame the manager, you know, but in reality, in this case with the New York Yankees general manager, douchebag, Brian Cashman. Yeah. He's the problem. And, and, and I blame the Lackadaisio Momo, Hal Steinbrenner, the son of the late George Steinbrenner. I blame him for not acknowledging the fact that the problem is Brian Cashman. That's right. It's not the Daniel Boone. No, what the hell is he? Aaron Boone. Aaron Boone. Yeah. It's not Aaron Boone's fault that he gets, he gets along perfectly with the players and they love him. They respect him. Now Cashman has a tendency. He has an obsession with signing up older veterans who have seen, who had the best of their career behind them. Right. Like the ladies of the dance club who ask you if you're established and all that stuff. Yeah. For the older ladies. I got breasts. Dance club that tried to squeeze into a hoochie mama clothes that 21 year old girls would normally wear. Yeah. It's true. It's the same analogy. Like those old hands can compare, compete with the, the up and coming. Yeah. So these, these veteran players who are in the twilight of their careers, they, the worst thing he did, not only signing them up, but signing them up to a long-term contract. You know, an older, you know, sign up a veteran player to a long-term contract. Giancarlo. What the hell is his name? Giancarlo. Giancarlo Stanton. He's Mike Stanton. I don't know what the hell. Giancarlo Stanton. That's the worst example there. The guys, the guys locked in for another three years, I think. Yeah. He has, and he has a no trait clause. Wow. Which is. Wow. Not to be, not to be confused with Santa Claus. Yeah. That's horrible. It's like. Ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding. That deserves the bell. Hi, Lisa. Hi. It took me a while, but I got in. I had to go through the back door. Yeah. So he's going on and that was on my areas. What? We're talking about the Yankees. We're talking about Brian Cashman. We're talking about what the Yankees is. So, uh, baseball team. Yep. Yeah. The general manager, the mistakes he's made. But, uh, yeah, we, uh, we had a good holiday. We did. We ate. Oh my God. Oh my God. Don't mind me. I'm well over the place. I need a haircut. My phone, it's like, oh my gosh, it's like my phone has got blocked. I got everything. I got everything because I have a lot of apps on my phone from my job. So I have a lot of security blocks and I wouldn't let me in for nothing. But I had to shut the, the notifications on some of my apps. So it was every time a notification came. Oh my God. That's why I'm all night. I'm like, oh my Jimmy, shut it off. I swear. I have everything shut off. I'm a dead silence on my phone. I'll tell Jeff how horrible the royal hapache. Oh my gosh. Compared to the last time you were there or we were there, probably when we were all there. Yeah. It was bad. It was like, it was really disappointing. We'll never go back again. Sloppy number one. I mean, there were no women running around. People were like govons, really like pigs. And that's another thing. The clientele there is like, not that good anymore. But the worst part is like we got there. Jerry came back. He got some pieces of steak or whatever, flank steak. And he gave me a little piece. I said, oh, this is pretty good. They didn't refill it from the time he got it to the time we left. They were not refilling everything. And everything was like that fried crap. Yeah. Fried, fried, fried. And Chinese slop, I called it. And I couldn't find anything I really wanted. So I says, you know what? I don't think we'll be going back again. But that's everywhere. Yeah. That's too bad. It is. It really is too bad. It used to be, but it's like that too. You can't get beef or meat. It's just so expensive or seafood. But that's not right. I mean, we were there for probably an hour, hour and a half. And for the whole hour and a half, you never refilled that meat. Hmm. That's unusual. Yeah. It really was. And it was probably the only thing that was decent other than people picking seafood out and leaving stuff behind. It was just, you know, it was just, I don't know. I felt like I was like, and I should have worn like plastic gloves or something. Yup. And that place for sure. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It's really a shame. But everybody, and the main thing was is like people were just like in a rush. Like, you know, like I would take in my time. I'm walking around and is, you know, these grown grown boys. I'm going to call them. They're not even men. The starving, the starving people. And they're like running right in front of you and they don't care. It was just rude. I was just like, let's get out of here. It's a shame. You should have spoke up or I'll give him an elbow and the rib. Well, me, I know me in my mouth. Yeah. But, you know, I was trying to be nice. You know, I take my time because of, you know, the knees and everything. And I got arthritis and now I had the knee replacement. So nowadays I wouldn't even tolerate it. But you have to take your time. You can't be walking. What if you slip? Yeah. You know, that's how dirty it was. Then you make sure your lawyer's office as soon as possible. Seriously. I mean, it was really sloppy. That's what I mean. I was going to get like seafood salad and it was like all the juice was like all over the place. And I'm like, where are the people walking around and cleaning? You know, they're always clean. Always. Mm hmm. You know, he's being penny wise and pound foolish because that's going to affect his business in the long run and at the health department. Well, the problem is from what I've seen is clientele. And I hate to say it because it is what it is. Like from forsake, like that, that low class Hispanic. Yeah. I hate to say it. And you know what I mean? Like when we went there, it was a lot of Arabic. I remember. Yeah. It was a lot of mixed. It was a lot of Arabic. Yeah. So now I went, I noticed it was just large. It was just large families of like that don't give crap about the food. They just want to keep eating a lot. Yeah. I didn't see that kind of clientele anymore. You're trying to get one meal in for the day. Oh my gosh. Yeah. So that's the kind of people that go there now. And it's a lot, it's a lot around too. I went to another place a while back, you know, was, and it was the same thing. It was just a lot of fried foods and Chinese foods, which are cheap. And that's all they, if you, if it's in all you can eat, that's what they're going to do because they're not going to be putting out like high grade type of meats that are so expensive now and seafood. You can't even get anything. I mean, at one time, Mother's Royal was dirt cheap. Not anymore. Yeah. Yeah. It's like I told you, my girlfriend, Lisa, she went to get herself. It was a, oh, it was a prime rump roast, prime rib rump roast. It was like five pounds. My girlfriend last week, she don't want to make turkey. So she, the butcher gave it to her a hundred and twenty dollars. Oh my God. So my girlfriend turned around and said, excuse me, is this an era? And the butcher's like, no, that's prime rib rump. She says, yeah, but I didn't want the cow. I just wanted, and she says, I can't, I don't want this. She says, so she ended up just getting like London broil, but she said, I said, get out of here. Five pound prime rib rump roast was that much money Lee? She's like, yeah, I thought it was a mistake. Yeah. What it is to, we found up here is the shipping cost of everything. Yeah. Well, well, we know is we have the memories of the good oil you can eat. That's all. I know. Remember when me and you went to the sushi village and where was it? Barona or little falls or something? It was called sushi village. Me or you and Jeff? No, no, you and I went to some oil you can eat place called sushi village. Probably did. So many. I don't even remember. It was the place over here is like that. You sit down and you check off what you want. Yeah. Bring it to you. And the only difference is this place is much better because they have hot. Yeah. And sushi. That's good. I mean, as long as like you said, you check it off and they give you a good amount as long as they're not giving you like two rolls or something. I don't mind that. But um, you know, I don't know. I'm almost skeptical now too. Let me say good morning to Masumi. Good morning, Masumi. Is she on here? Yeah, she's. Oh, she doesn't have a video, right? No, no, she just. She could see you and hear you, right? Yeah. We have a comments box. And it's. Hi, grandma. Yeah, her daughter had a second baby. That's great. How's your family, Jeff? Everybody's right. Yeah. My son, he got married to a young way that's half Japanese, half Hawaiian. So they'll be going to Japan. Oh, December for Christmas night. Well, nice. I mean, how do you feel about that? You're little holiday separation, but. Yeah, he's in Hawaii. So he's station. Oh, okay. That's a big difference. Oh, good for him. Thank you for his services. Yeah. Yeah. So if that's the case, then. You know, as long as he's happy and he's safe, right? Nice place to be stationed though. Yeah. I was just going to say before he. In Hawaii, I was going to be like, I think I'd rather go to Hawaii than Japan, but he's already there. Yeah. You live there. So like when Newman on Seinfeld was, he kept trying to get transferred to Hawaii as opposed to Hawaii. Oh, yeah. Well, before you know it will be the bunnies will be hopping around again. So he says that the air is so dewy sweet. You can cut it with a butter knife. Yeah. Which was a Don Ho. It is tiny bubbles. Tiny bubbles. He was always drunk. I know. Oh, spares Jimmy, please. Or you get out your juice harp. What is that? I love that. We're about to do the kazoops. You're welcome. Thank you for your. You're welcome, sweetheart. So nice to see you here. And Jimmy's really big shoe. Yeah. It's really big talk shoe. I know Jerry went by Jerry went by mom's house. I got leftover Mexican and I'm getting ready for work again tomorrow to my really big shoe. I'm going to heat up those tacos after the show. There you go. Yeah. I never touched by you when I'm going to eat them. Did you leave them out of the refrigerator? I hope because less cold will be better microwaving than making leather. No, they're sitting outside. Yeah. And I think I got one more. I had a giant leftover turkey sandwich before, like late last night. I think I got enough for one more. Well, you had another one late last night. Yeah. And I have, I have, I have enough for one more. And then I also have a fetishini with truffle. So I can eat. Well, you. I've seen it. He eats all quality stuff. Yeah. Yeah. He does. This is always our conversation when he's here. Usually we have a great time together. We hang out, we chill, you know, whatever, whatever. He's good. He's definitely a good company and he's like very low maintenance until we get on the topic of the appetite and him eating and me like saying, okay, you know, I don't know what else to give you, you know, because I said the word up on dance. Yeah. He says I eat around our house and wallet. You can eat at a house and home. I says I have enough food in my refrigerator for normal people not. I call them two for tubby, you know, for two. And I'm like, I made two turkey sandwiches on that was fine. Because we had. I had a few. Yogurt with mango. You left to also. Yeah, that was fine. I made, I made two pumpkin pies. This is James's sister. Hi. Oh, she hears a woman's voice. Right. What's that lady doing? She has to. She has to go get my son. Oh, I came to church. Okay. Celebrity Reverend Dr. Mikey Zambolo. You know, I didn't watch mass today. You know why I call him the Reverend. Powder blue soup. Hey, he likes to wear a soup all the time. Okay. That's that's old school. That's nice. He looks like an evangelist. Yeah. Well, as long as he doesn't start jumping around the dance floor like some of them. Exactly. I'm trying to figure out what that is. Do you ever see that on YouTube? What's that? Kick talk. It's like, I don't know what church it is, but they all jump around and kick around. I know. That's the Pentecostals. Yeah. I'm like, I'm jealous because I can't do that with my knees. But I'm still trying to figure out, but they just all go crazy. I mean, I'm non-denominational Christian church I belong to. They had the flags and stuff like that. But I've never seen people hop around like that before. The other one was very disappointing because nobody gave you condolences for mommy. That's why I really don't go anymore. Oh my gosh. I need a haircut. That's why I stopped going because, you know, I really donated a lot of my time, my money. I really loved it. We went to private worship. I loved it. I just was so absorbed with them. I loved the music, the pastors. They were great. And the women and the people and I, you know, I did. I really donated a lot of my time for a lot of good causes. And they were my mother passed away. You have to sound a little bit, you know, I'm not mad or anything like that because that's not what you want. But actions speak and I called the church. I left a message for my pastor. I wanted him to come to my mother's hospital. I mean, they all live pretty local for prayer. No answer. Then I was like, I reached out to the assistant pastor. And the only thing he could tell me is, oh, oh, I'm sorry to hear about your mom. And that was it. One of the women who kept contacting me, I told her, and what does she do? She sends me an invite to a Broadway musical that one of the other parishioners is in. And I said to her, my mother just passed away. Well, I thought it would take your mind off of it. I said, go into a musical with somebody that we know is in it is not going to make me feel any better right now. You know, I said, but where is all my support? Where are all my brothers and sisters from my church? Where's my pastor? Where is everybody? And she was like, oh, I miss you. You know, we miss you. I said, but where is everybody? Didn't you tell the other girls? They all had my phone number. I said, did you spread the word to the other girls? I supposedly I was close with there. No, she never really did. And I'm like, wow, what in the past are not even a call a text. When my wife's mother died and she died in Prince Edward Island, which is a province away. Most of the people from my wife's church went up. I never expected that. And they stayed overnight at a hotel. Yeah. Yeah. Exactly. I don't even want them to do that much. They were all pretty locals. Yeah. But at least can you at least pass? I called the office and said, please tell Pastor Pete. My mom passed away. If he could reach out to me, I really want him to come to, you know, to my mother's morning process. My life's a poor for God's sakes. Can you at least come say prayer? I mean, we had, we had the church parishioner come in and I had music playing from the state. There was a hospital. Yeah. He came in and did prayer and that was okay. But it was just after that, I said, nah, you know what? I don't need to really be part of this kind of an organization. This is not what the Lord wants. This is not something is really missing here. And you know, come on, you reach out and you say, okay, you know, or I can't make something or a phone call. And so that was the end of it. I mean, I miss, I really do miss Pastor Steve. He's actually such a gifted. He's pretty much the head of the music. Oh my gosh, his voice will melt your heart. He's got God all through his vocal cords. And I miss that because I used to go and just absorb in the music and pray. This church has a canther. What a voice on him. Yeah, it's beautiful. An electric guitar, an offender electric guitar. His voice just melts my heart. It's he's just what, when he sings in praise and he just pray, he just felt his music and go right into prayer and praise. And it's just like, wow, I could go on YouTube. I wish there was more of him, you know, but unfortunately, I'm not going to go, you know, I just now I have this in the back of my head and it's not resentment. It's just like, I have a better chance of going to pay him $300 to go see Joe Olstein in his auditorium. You know what I mean? No, I, that's what I'm saying. That's what I feel like, you know what I mean? Or or Myers. All right, let's go talk to go see my Joyce Meyer. What about Peter Papua? That was mommy's. He's got shoe polish, black shoe polish here. And his wife. There was one that Jerry Folly passed. Like, so I'm going to say like maybe 10 years ago, I called him the skeleton man, but he kept predicting that the world was going to come to an end. That was Harold camping. Yeah. Good memory. Yeah, Jimmy. That was good. Yeah. And Jerry was following him. Stop it. He used to give the date. No, he did. We were in Florida keys every year of the end time. So it never happened. No, we were in the Florida keys. I was counting down Jerry drank too much. He was snoring and how an uncle, Nikki went home. So here I am for like a moment with the countdown to when the world's coming to an end. You know, you always have that tiny little the what if, you know what happened? People are scolding Harold camping on the radio for that every year. And he goes, how could you pick on a poor elderly man? I kept telling Jerry. I was telling Jerry the Bible. I'm like, I told him, I said, read your Bible. You read your Bible. It tells you not eating angels. No, nobody knows. Nobody knows. But you know, Jesus don't know. The happiness man all of a sudden and he kept watching him, watching him. Oh my gosh. Had it down to a teen time. And here we go. He had a voice like that. Yeah. He passed and everybody else is still. Yeah. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. He would pick up a hookers along the road again after he did the crime. Oh my gosh. He's still on. I know he had talking about it. Swagger. Swagger. He's still on. What the hell? The church of lost souls and and or Robert said, if I don't collect $50 million in donations, they're all doing that. God won't take me. Send your needs. Send your needs. I'm like, who's your healed? Who's your healed? If as they throw the, oh, I can, I can dance again. They're all criss- Right now in the Gulf streams. I don't know. I wouldn't just feel what why does that pastor need more than one private jet? Why does he need any private check? Well, in the words of Olstein, well, you see, God never wanted us to be poor. That was the interview. That's the interview with the baby. Grand piano in the background, whoever was interviewing him said, said, did you bother you to do an interview in front of your baby grand piano? And that's what he said with those teeth. Well, you see, God never wanted us to be poor. What about the part where Jesus told the rich people, uh, donate all your, your, uh, belong, your, your, you know, your money, worldly goods and come follow me, you know, give it to the poor and come follow me. They didn't, they, of course, they couldn't do it. So that's when some, that's when he says the rich getting to heaven is like putting a camel through the eye of a needle. Yeah. I don't know. Well, we live in the rich man. Yeah. The world is a lived day by day. I keep my distance. I, I pray, I praise, I just stay good and do what I got to do for whomever is deserving. Yeah. It's an ugly world we live in. So whatever relationship with God and that's it. That's it. Keep my distance from, from the, from the evil. From the opportunists. The ones that prey upon the vulnerable, the most vulnerable. Yeah. And, and, and that Jesus said, he said, um, um, you know, hang a millstone around their neck or, or no, see better to hang a millstone around your neck than to, um, do something to the most vulnerable. Yeah. Yeah. What's happening now is it's just the predator. Yeah. The predatory. The predatory. Yeah. Um, uh, usually like the CTT. Just like the CTT industry. This is the, the, the one and only type of fitness, the one, one size fits all, but I guess, and then you see like lunges and, you know, these foolish ancillary lifts. They have people, uh, doing fitness seminars that are total nonsense and they're charging people several hundred dollars to go to their seminar. But people do it. People just have no common sense. I think the best thing that, that anyone can have is just damn common sense. It's, it's like a sucker, the sucker born every minute. I'm surprised they never did a seminar with the shake weight. Remember that information? The shaker? Jimmy. It's called the shake weight. Yeah. Hello. Yeah. Yeah. Do that motion. Yeah. No. From JFK Airport to Southern Connecticut. I don't want to do the merchant. JFK Airport to Southern Connecticut. I'll send you the infomercial. So, you know, you recognize what it is. It's a, it's a gimmick. I think I'd seen it. Yeah. Mommy ordered one. It's like an exercise thing. Yeah. But that's the motion. Yeah. I know. I've seen it and it's like, and they, yeah. So, kind of like the thymaster, you know, really. Right. Suzanne Somers thymaster and then they, they did a satire in South Park about the shake weight. The shake weight. Hmm. Anyone? Yeah. Oh, your samurai, what is his name? Masumi? Masumi? She left. No, she's, she's around. She's watching the show. I wish she, but she's not on. She's not logged in. She said, thanks a lot. Yeah. She is. I didn't see her. Oh, she's quiet. She said, thanks a lot. And you called her a samurai? I gotta try to think of her name. Samurai Masumi. I call her macho. Macho. I know. What does that mean? Well, hopefully we'll be saying goodbye to Brian Cash when it's soon enough. Yeah. Well, we'll get into that. No, it's at the Japanese market. They make smoothies, milkshakes with the macho green tea. It's a, it's supposed to be like the best in the world. Powder. Macho is a powder. It's like the finest green tea and they make, make a milkshake. So I call her macho milk. I like green tea. I like green tea ice cream. Oh, green tea ice cream. I like green tea ice cream. Yeah. Do they ever have that at the world Hibachi? No, not at all. They have hard ice cream and then everybody grabs the ice cream scooper and then they stand there like this, waiting for the next person to get done and you're like, oh boy. And you just not hold it, put it down, man. What's wrong with these? And they make a big mess. Yeah. Well, that too. But if, you know, if you want ice cream, you got to grab a spoon because they're waiting to get on the other side of the freezer. I grab a spoon anyway because everybody's hands are all over them. I just don't anymore. A sticky scoop. I use a new, I just use a new scoop spoon because it cuts into the ice cream better and none of that. The fountain that's supposed to clean the, the scooper, you know, the trickling water. Yeah. It was all milky. It wasn't draining. Yeah, of course. It's everything in there is low flow. Nasty. You have to watch out for a lot of germs. I, oh my God, my neck is terrible. I got a gobble, gobble. If it runs at laboratory, it would have a fun time in that place. Yeah, I don't trust anything. Oh, that's the last time I was there is 2020, right, at the beginning of the COVID, as soon as the COVID pandemic started. Yeah. And they closed the restaurants. That's the last time I ever went. Yeah, 2019. You could only eat so much anyway. I just went because of the variety they had, not how much I can eat. Do they say they have sushi there? They got sushi, but it's like, like the fish is like this big. Oh, it's all rice? Yeah, you know, cut down and everything. I'd rather, I'd rather sit home from a real good sushi place, pay more money, have it delivered and just eat my sushi home to be honest. Yeah. And seaweed salad. I can, you know, there's a lot of, there's a couple really good sushi places around here. I'd rather just do that. I mean, so it is what it is. And like in James and I went, there was like a nice clientele of senior people. Yeah. Was there senior people, less senior people there this time or not really, just younger families? Just a massive amounts of families and hungry people. They just want to, you know, they want to swan dive into everything. Yeah, because the senior people like quality. Senior people, yeah, they like quiet. They like it more, more quality. Definitely more quality and quieter, you know. Asian customers won't tolerate garbage. No, it wasn't, but like with this place, because I think he was Arab or whatever he was, I forgot. Yeah. He had a, I remember him having, remember Minatos. I mean, Minato is Korean, I believe. Oh my goodness. I was going to say, Jeff, too bad you weren't around back then. This place. Oh, it's Japanese. 20 years ago. It was a Japanese restaurant. Japanese. Oh my gosh. It was like a diamond in the rough. It was top quality sushi. They had king crab legs. They had Oyster Rockefeller. They had all kinds of Japanese salads. It was, oh, and they had the soft serve green tea, but you can order a green tea or iced tea to drink. And it was a curve. You see, we had soup station. They had a soup station, too. Yeah. Oh, and then they had the Habachi station. Delicious. They had, oh my gosh. And then, of course, all their clientele was Japanese, because it was just such high quality. And then, of course, little by little, I don't know, they just started to downgrade, and then they ended up selling it, but we could go there all the time. It was so good. I don't know why, because they had a lot of customers. Yeah, I think their prices went up, and then it brought in a lot of different people, which kind of made the other people not want to come, I guess. I don't know. I really don't know the secret why, but it was so good. I mean, Jerry used to go, well, it was expensive, even for back then, but wow. Anyway, to all you viewers, this is my sister. How many viewers out there looking at my turquiness? This is my sister, Lisa Madonna. This is Lisa Madonna, hiding in her turquineck. Wait a minute. How many people looking at me out there? Commodore Jeff Zambello in the middle, the sound. My name is not Lisa. It's Lisa. I spelled it wrong. Do you see my name, Lisa? No, we just saw the L. We don't see Lisa. We just see the L on my little video. It says L-U-S-A, lusa. She spelled it wrong. She called herself lusa. I did. I mean, I'm incognito. I don't want my real name being here. Okay, thank you. So how many people are hearing and watching this? A heaping hell, a bunch. Really? You used to have a heaping hell for a bunch, because I feel like three of us have been doing the old stuff. I miss Michael Hilton. We're going to get Michael Hilton and the guy from Scotland on there too. Oh, yeah. They see me online. Usually, they'll type a comment. We need a writing show. Yeah, they'll type a comment, or if they want to come on, I'll just put the link in the commentary box. But Jeff and I, we got to finish our sports talk. All right, you go do that. I'm going to go heat up my neck. Less than 10 minutes here. All right, go ahead, because I could just keep talking for another hour. All right, everybody. I enjoyed hearing about the rest. That was good. What's that? You were a good contribution to the show today, Lisa. For 40 something minutes. No, well, the rest. I'm a star. I'm a movie. I'm a star. Send me my, you know, Miami in the mail. Thank you. Bye, everybody. Bye. I'm assuming. We did. We did religion. We did everything. Bye. Bye, brother. Love you. Bye. Thank you. How do we get out of here now? Help. There's a button that says leave. You know what? I'll just close it a little. Bye. Just close it off with the yaks. Yeah, just X out. Bye. Go and bye. I mean, I really mean it. Bye. Hi, Jimmy. X out. You know what? Hold on. Let me. That's funny. I'll figure it out. But anyway, giving back to Brian Cashman. Yeah. You know, he's pissed. He pisses away a lot of the Yankees money. I mean, on these old losing fans. I mean, in television revenue, because people, you know, they're not going to watch it. The fans are like calling him every name in the board. I know. Say fire, Brian Cashman. He's not going to get beat up. No, the fans were savage against Brian Cashman. Oh, I wouldn't want to begin. I wouldn't want to walk around the Bronx or Manhattan or Brooklyn and Valhalla. Yeah. Well, the stadium is in the South Bronx. But the thing is, you're pissing away money that you could spend on on a promising younger player who has his whole life ahead of him, you know, like like a superstar in triple A farm. He wants to trade the Martian to the Tampa Bay race. He's a jackass. Jason Dominguez. Yeah. He's a fucking jackass. If he does that, he's gonna, they're gonna, they're gonna fucking, somebody's gonna like fuck them up. He is the mother fuck. He hasn't changed. He doesn't want, he doesn't value any of the young players, the superstar young players. You know, he wants these older fucking players. I think he's, he, something's wrong with him. You know, he must be like narcissistic or something. He doesn't, he doesn't. Jason Dominguez hit four home runs in six games. You think maybe Brian Cashman is doing it for spite because people are bashing him and criticizing him and, and rightfully so. You know, I mean, it's incredible. He's, he's cutting, he's castrating the team and making it bad for him. I don't know what his objective is. I don't know. He, he doesn't, he doesn't like, he doesn't want to take chances with the young players, but then again, the young players don't suck up a lot of the team's money. Nope. Nope. You know, I mean, I mean, look at Josh Donaldson was a flop. Oh, the biggest flop. Oh, there was so many. It's like a gallo. Oh, Joey Gallo. Oh, man, that was a nightmare. I was a virus for him. All, all Joey Gallo do is wiggle at the plate. He's like a, this big ritual. He was like, they couldn't even hit them all. At least, hey, at least Pops, Willie Stardale, God rest his soul. He had a, he had that, that he did that thing with the bat. He had the thing like this. Yeah, chicken wing. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But at least he'll like to hit the ball. But he hit the ball. He was, he was, he was a part of a big red machine. He was a second base. Yep. Unbelievable. Give me a fucking break, man. What is, what is catchment? He's already in a lot of hot water and he wants to get rid of the biggest star of triple A. You must know some secrets about the Hal Brander family. There's something that's keeping him employed. There's something. There's, there's, there's, there's a read that I don't know what it is, but something is, there's a, he must, he must have some dirt on the Steinbrenner family. Something. Yeah. Because this Hal Steinbrenner, he has, he's got reasons for balls, man. I mean, he doesn't like, I think the both of them are detrimental. I think, I think Hal Brander, he's going to sell the team. He's going to sell the team to a hard core businessman. Oh yeah. I mean, like the WWE doesn't belong to the McMahon family anymore, technically belongs to the ultimate fighting company, the company that owns Ultimate UFC. Ultimate fighting. They, they're now the owners of the WWE World Wrestling Entertainment. McMahon was just getting old and senile. He was, he's, people call him a tyrant. He, you know, if you kiss his ass and you never criticize him, you never say the scourging word, he likes you, he might even love you, but other than that, you like Fierce People left and right for yells of people. He used to yell at the announcers all the time and they had like a little, a little earphone. Yep. And, you know, Vince would say, would scold them on the little earphone for every little thing. In the land base, there was some of them at Triple H. Yeah. And you got to, you got to do everything verbatim. It's not like the old days where, let's say you were a wrestler during the territory days. You were responsible for cultivating your own character. You're different. You know, but WWE, when Vince, when Vince was completely in charge, you had to say everything verbatim according to script, word for word, and they would give you the music. You couldn't pick your own entry music and they would give you the gimmick. And if they didn't like you and they want to embarrass you, they put you in funny clothes and make a fool out of you. Like, when they put Dusty Rose in polka dots, black and gold polka dots. You know, like. Yeah. I like the old days of like the 70s and early 80s when it was creative promotions, creative self-promotion. Yeah. Yeah. You had territories. Every part of the country had a wrestling territory, even in Canada. They all had wrestling territories and it was separate promoters. But you know, you worked on your character, your gimmick, you know, and you learned the microphone skills because without microphone skills, you can't generate enthusiasm with the fans. You know, you got your travel. We're going to get going here, my friend, because it's after six. Okay. You got to put bodies in the seats. That's the objective. Anyway, listen, it was interesting. It was a good show. Yeah. His sister was a great contribution. Yeah. Talking about a culinary restaurant and, and, and, and Christianity. Yeah. The business of religion, organized religion, and the business and downfall of cell phones, restaurants that were once good. And then something happens, either the younger generation or the clientele. What it is, it is, you know, that's an interesting subject. If somebody did a study of why popular restaurants that are on top, tippity top, how they, how they degrade and then go on. I think because what happens is you have the, the original clientele, like it, like you sit to the same, but the Japanese and there's mostly Japanese clientele that like, you know, they didn't mind paying a lot of money. And then everybody here, it's a good thing. It's a good thing. And then everybody comes in and then I think the honest thing, they can get away with fooling some of the newer clientele, the less sophisticated clientele. And then that's when the greed steps in. Ah, the profit margin, the profit margin. Yeah. You know, you know what, what demon that is responsible for greedy? His name is Mammon. Oh, yeah. Yep. Mammon greed. And now, but you know, it's like, you, um, I think the pandemic hurt a lot. Because any restaurant that survived, survived by the skin of their teeth and by debt, but they could have been in the red at the end of the pandemic. Yep. They could have owed a lot of money. Yep. You know, but anyway, I want you to, you have to go because you got to go train, train. Yep. I do. And, uh, thank you. Like always. And until next time, have a good workout. Have a good Sunday. And I'll talk to you as usual on messenger. And it's been, it's been wonderful. So I'm going to read, I'm going to read an article before I sign off about rose hips, the health benefits of rose hips. All right. I'll see you next week. God bless. Thank you. Oh, we pipe you away. All right. There he is. That was great. That was wonderful. My sister, Lisa and Madonna and the Commodore Jeff Sanbello. Now let me, oh, let's see. Let me go to this article. What's going on here? Here we go. If I can, if I can bring it up on screen share. Oh, there you go. Okay. Eight surprising health benefits of rose hips tea. And let me start to finish up the show. I usually go over a nutritional supplement, a nutritional, a highly nutritional or natural medicinal product. It's good for your health. That's how I finish the show. Until I decide to change the format for the better. This is what I'm doing. Rose hips come from the rose plant and can be used to make tea. This tea is easy to brew and is full of antioxidants, has protective properties and may even fight skin aging. Rose hips, rose hip tea is an herbal tea made from the pseudo fruits of the rose plant. It has a delicate floral flavor. That's slightly sweet with a distinct tart aftertaste found just below the rose petals. Rose hips, rose hips are small round and typically red or orange. There are several hundred species of rose plants. Though research on rose hips has focused on the pseudo fruits of the Rosa Canina plant. Now, I don't know about it being a pseudo fruit because on fruit trees, the fruit appears when the flower dies. And the same thing occurs with the rose bush. The rose hips, which is the fruit appears after the flower dies. So, I don't know why they're calling it a pseudo fruit. Okay, rose hips have been linked to numerous benefits including improved immunity, heart health, weight loss and skin aging. Here are eight benefits of drinking rose hips tea. Rich in antioxidants, antioxidants are substances that protect or reduce cell damage caused by molecules called free radicals. Consuming foods and beverages, rich in antioxidants may protect against chronic conditions like heart disease, cancer and type 2 diabetes. In a study on the antioxidant contents of six fruit extracts, rose hip was found to have the highest antioxidant capacity. Wow. More specifically, it has been found to contain high levels of polyphenols, carotenoids and vitamin C and vitamin E, all of which have powerful antioxidant properties. The amounts of these antioxidants in rose hips can vary greatly. Depending on the plant species, time of harvest and altitude at which the plant was grown. Interestingly, plants from higher altitudes tend to have higher antioxidant levels. Additionally, research shows that dried rose hips may offer a fewer antioxidants than fresh varieties. As rose hips tea can be made with either you may get more antioxidants by using fresh rose hips instead of dried ones or tea bags. Well, depending on how it's dried, if it's not dried with heat and you get a concentrate, not using the seeds, it should be good. I take a very good rose hips powder, organic from Utah, and it's like a deep burgundy red. As opposed to pale reddish orange of the other rose hips powder I use from Bulgaria. Okay, this is American rose hips from Utah, from pristine farming. I get it on Amazon, actually, as rose hip tea can be made with, or I said that already, summery rose hips are rich in antioxidants that can help protect against cell damage from free radicals while the exact amount varies by plant. Okay, fresh rose hips have been shown to contain more antioxidants than dried ones. Number two, may support a healthy immune system. One of the most impressive benefits of rose hips is their high concentration of vitamin C while the exact amount varies by plant. Rose hips have been shown to have among the highest vitamin C content of all fruits and vegetables. Vitamin C plays many essential roles in your immune system, stimulating the production of white blood cells called lymphocytes, which protect your body against infection, enhancing the function of lymphocytes, helping maintain your skin's protective barrier against outside pathogens. In addition to vitamin C, rose hips contain high levels of polyphenols and vitamin A and vitamin E, all of which help strengthen and protect your immune system. Though some animal research suggests that supplementing with concentrated rose extract can enhance immune function, human research is lacking. Three, may protect against heart disease. Due to its high concentration of antioxidants, rose hip tea may benefit heart health. Studies suggest a relationship between vitamin C intake and heart disease risk. One review of 13 studies found that supplementing with at least 500 milligrams of vitamin C per day was associated with a significant decrease in LDL, which is the Bacolesterol and blood triglycerides, two risk factors for heart disease. Additionally, observational studies have linked insufficient vitamin C intake to an increased risk of dying from heart disease. Rose hips are also high in flavonoids. These antioxidants have been shown to reduce blood pressure in people with elevated levels and improve blood flow to the heart. In a six-week study in 31 adults with obesity found that those who consumed a drink containing 40 grams of rose hips powder per day had significantly improved blood pressure and LDL Bacolesterol levels compared with the control group. However, the researchers suggested that these beneficial effects may have been partially due to the high fiber content of the powder, which is not present in rose hips tea. High fiber definitely plays a role in overall health. And before, may aid weight loss. Research suggests that rose hip tea may aid weight loss. Studies show that rose hips from the rose canina plant are high in an antioxidant called tilroside, which may have fat burning properties. In an eight-week study in mice prone to obesity, those fed a high-fat diet containing 1% rose hips extract gained significantly less body weight and stomach fat than animals that did not receive the supplement. Human research shows similar results in a 12-week study in 32 adults with excess weight, taking 100 milligrams of rose hips extract daily significantly decreased body weight and stomach fat compared with the placebo group. However, current research is limited to the effects of concentrated rose hip extract, not tea. More human studies are needed to evaluate the relationship between rose hip tea and weight loss. Number five may protect against type 2 diabetes. While the exact mechanism is unclear, some research suggests that rose hips may protect against type 2 diabetes. In a study in mice on a high-fat diet supplementing with rose hip powder over 10 to 20 weeks significantly decreased blood sugar levels, fasting insulin levels, and fat cell growth in the liver. Three risk factors for type 2 diabetes in another study. Rose hip extract significantly lowered fasting blood sugar levels in rats with diabetes. However, in a study in adults with obesity supplementing with rose hip powder daily had no significant effects on fasting glucose levels or insulin sensitivity. These results apply to people with healthy and impaired blood sugar levels alike. As with weight loss, current research is limited to rose hip extract and more studies on the relationship between rose hip tea and type 2 diabetes risk are needed. Well, I prefer the extract or the extracting powder form. May reduce inflammation and pain. Rose hip tea is high in compounds with anti-inflammatory effects including polyphenols and galactolipids. Galactolipids are the main types of fat in cell membranes. Recently, they have been studied for their strong anti-inflammatory properties and potential to reduce joint pain. In a review of three studies supplementing with rose hip significantly reduced joint pain in people with osteoarthritis. Furthermore, those receiving rose hip were twice as likely to report improved pain levels compared with the placebo group. Another four-month study in 100 people with osteoarthritis found that those who supplemented with 5 grams of rose hip extract, well that's what I do, daily experienced significantly less pain and increased hip joint mobility compared with the control group. In fact, 65% of the participants in the rose hip group reported some reduction in pain. Rose hip extract has also been suggested to aid rheumatoid arthritis though research is limited and high quality human studies are lacking. Yeah, that's because they can't patent mother nature and make a fortune off of it like big pharma does with pharmaceuticals. Number seven may fight skin aging. Collagen is the most abundant protein in your body and responsible for providing elasticity to your skin. Vitamin C has been shown to promote collagen synthesis and protect skin cells against sun damage both of which can help keep your skin looking tighter and more youthful. As rose hip tea is high in this vitamin and drinking it could benefit your skin. Additionally, rose hip tea contains the carotenoid astaxanthin which may have anti-aging effects as it helps prevent the breakdown of collagen. Wow, I didn't know rose hips was rich in astaxanthin. That's one of the most powerful antioxidants really. Other carotenoid, at least the most powerful carotene carotenoid which is this pigmentation found in plants. Other carotenoids in rose hip tea may benefit skin health as well in particular vitamin A and lycopene are known to protect skin cells against sun damage. That's right since rose hips is red it does contain lycopene. An eight-week study in 34 people showed that those who consume three grams of rose hip powder per day experience fewer crow's feet wrinkles as well as improved skin moisture and elasticity. However, it's unclear whether drinking rose hip tea would have the same effect on skin health. Easy to brew at home. Rose hip tea has a tart flavor similar to that of green apple and can be made from the pseudo fruits of any rose plant. Still it's recommended to avoid using rose hips from a plant that has been sprayed with a pesticide that isn't labeled safe for human consumption. I doubt there's any pesticide that's labeled safe. I wouldn't trust it if it was. Rose hips look like miniature red or orange apples and are found just below the flower petals of roses. Fresh rose hips can be used for tea by first rinsing them well to remove any dirt and debris. Next place four to eight rose hips in a cup. You got a better idea. Get the high quality powder I'm using. 240 milliliters of boiling water. Let the tea steep for 10 to 15 minutes and then remove the fruits. Dried rose hips can be used as well. You can either dry fresh rose hips yourself or buy pre-dried loose leaf rose hips tea. To brew place one to two teaspoons of rose hip of dry rose hips in an infuser and submerge it in a cup. 240 milliliters of boiled water steep for 10 to 15 minutes and then remove the infuser. If you find the tea too tart then you're a baby. Try adding a sweetener like honey to help bounce out the flavor. All right. Or you can use stevia or extract the monk fruit which doesn't affect blood sugar and has zero calories. Rose hip tea tastes delicious both freshly brewed and iced. Yeah I bet it will be really refreshing during the warm weather days of summer and spring late spring late springs and summer because it has a lemony flavor. All right. Now this is the part that I might not agree with. Precautions. Rose hip tea has not been shown to cause serious side effects in most healthy adults. However certain individuals should avoid rose hip tea. For example the safety and efficacy of rose hip tea have not been studied in women who are pregnant or breastfeeding. It's best to speak with your healthcare provider before trying this tea if you're pregnant or nursing. The same thing goes for all supplements if you're pregnant or nursing. Additionally due to its high levels of vitamin C rose hip tea may increase the risk of kidney stones in some individuals. All right. But you have to remember the vitamin C in rose hips is natural. It's not synthetic ascorbic acid that you see in the supplement industry. Finally if you're currently taking lithium a drug used to treat psychiatric disorders it's recommended to avoid rose hip tea as its diuretic effect could increase the concentration of lithium in your body causing serious side effects. All right. And what do we have here the bottom line the bottom line rose hip tea is an herbal tea made from the pseudo fruits of rose hips plants of rose plants. Yeah the hips are the fruit it has a slight floral taste with distinct tartness in addition to being easy to make at home it has many potential benefits due to its high levels of antioxidants rose hip tea may boost your immune system and weight loss reduce joint pain support healthy looking skin and protect against heart disease and type 2 diabetes. However evidence on many of these benefits is limited to the studies on rose hip extract and it is unclear how much rose hip tea you would need to drink to experience these effects nevertheless this delicious drink can add a zest of flavor to your diet no matter if you buy it dried or make it fresh.
