Yeah. Oh, I didn't know. Well, welcome.
Kathleen Madigan (0:24)
I just broke the Queen's throne. It's the second time it's going to have to go in the workshop.
She was stuck in it. Then when I lifted it up, it's all one unit and then her ass dropped out.
SPEAKER_2 (0:36)
Stevie's not been dancing a lot lately.
Kathleen Madigan (0:39)
Well, Stevie's been attending a lot of events. I'm going to tell you about which one she went to last week. It was a real breaking character. Wonderful.

Yeah.

Just sit there, Stevie.

Welcome, termites.
SPEAKER_4 (0:50)
Welcome.
Kathleen Madigan (0:51)
Welcome to episode 292 Isn't that crazy? Yeah.
What are we drinking? We're drinking the Ocean Course from Kiowa Island Golf Resort, the Ocean Course Ale. They have their own beer. That's how fancy the golf course is. They have their own beer, South Carolina, Kiowa, which I did go to for my birthday and was wonderful.
SPEAKER_2 (1:12)
How was your birthday?
Kathleen Madigan (1:13)
Happy belated birthday. I'm going to talk about all that once we get into all that. It was wonderful.
SPEAKER_2 (1:17)
Good.
Kathleen Madigan (1:18)
Locked out with the weather because the day we left, started pouring.
SPEAKER_2 (1:23)
Really? Rain and gulf are bad unless you're in Ireland.
Kathleen Madigan (1:28)
Yeah, in Ireland, you just expect it. And you can't give up your tea time no matter what because it's too hard to get one. What are we?
I remember one time it was like 60 mile an hour winds and me and Lou were going to go out. And he was, I said, let me go. You stay in the car. I'll run in and check. And there was a lady named Nora. She was older, like 75
And she goes, Oh, you're not. I said, can we move this tea time by any chance? Cause it's like hurricane force winds. And she goes, you're not going to give it a go. I said, Nora, have you been out there lately? What time did you get to work? Six, five, it's now nine. And there's 60 miles an hour winds. I said, plus I have a senior citizen with me.
She said, Oh yeah, I can, I got a spot. Go get yourself an Irish breakfast and nap and come back.
SPEAKER_4 (2:18)
Hopefully the weather have calmed down by then.
Kathleen Madigan (2:20)
That was in Bally Bunyan too, which is the ones I like to play are on the ocean and near it. And the winds there, I mean.
SPEAKER_4 (2:28)
They're sideways.
Kathleen Madigan (2:28)
Yeah, but the Irish, they're like, give it a go.
SPEAKER_4 (2:31)
Give it a go.
Kathleen Madigan (2:33)
Well, this is where women golfers are more sensible too. Look, I can golf any day of my life pretty much.
SPEAKER_4 (2:38)
Yeah, we're good.
Kathleen Madigan (2:40)
I don't need to be out in that. I'd rather go sit in a bar and watch it rain and watch the wind.
SPEAKER_2 (2:45)
Yeah.
SPEAKER_4 (2:46)
Yeah.
Kathleen Madigan (2:47)
What are we trying? How about a Black Forest Gummy Bear from Philadelphia, Termite Jason?
SPEAKER_2 (2:52)
Nice.
Kathleen Madigan (2:53)
Colors and flavors from real source. USDA, organic. Oh, they're crazy colors.
SPEAKER_2 (3:00)
Organic Gummy Bears.
Kathleen Madigan (3:01)
Well, they say they have pink in here. Oh, I guess that's supposed to be pink.
SPEAKER_2 (3:04)
You're looking for the pink? Specifically.
SPEAKER_4 (3:07)
Wow.
Kathleen Madigan (3:09)
Oh. Almost equal to Haribo.
SPEAKER_2 (3:12)
Nice.
Kathleen Madigan (3:13)
Almost.
SPEAKER_4 (3:14)
I say yes. Tie.
Kathleen Madigan (3:16)
I've never had any other Gummy Bear come close.
SPEAKER_2 (3:19)
Wow.
Kathleen Madigan (3:20)
Fat free. They have six fruity flavors. Cherry, orange, pineapple. These are my flavors.
Amy (3:27)
Pineapple. Yeah, wonderful.
Kathleen Madigan (3:28)
Nice. 24 carbs if you eat the whole bag.
I can't.
SPEAKER_4 (3:34)
I wish you're capable of.
Kathleen Madigan (3:35)
I am capable, but I'd also feel sick to my stomach. Five stars. Thank you, Jason.
SPEAKER_4 (3:41)
Love it. I'll set them down there.
Kathleen Madigan (3:45)

SPEAKER_2 (4:02)
It's made in Baltimore.
Amy (4:03)
Yeah.
Kathleen Madigan (4:04)
Which once again, even with his foothold hurt, Lamar killed it for me in the first place.
