Did I ever tell you my Scott Hamilton story?
Oh, it's Scott Hamilton.
Lay it on me.
You know Scott Hamilton?
The blonde-fitting guy, right?
He's got horseshoe balls.
He's like the most famous American skater.
Right, right.
He's an announcer.
And he did backflip.
When we were kids, he was still skating.
Well, this is horrible.
So you guys are familiar with Tuesdays with Stories.
You know the podcast.
Great podcast.
I'm a Tuesday myself.
You know how we do.
You know, you say, hey, jizz and whatever.
And so I got to meet Scott Hamilton one time.
I did a corporate for the National Predators.
And I grew up in the 80s loving figure skating.
Scott Hamilton.
He was cool.
He did backflips.
He's a real cool guy.
He's like 5'4".
He's balding.
He skates.
He's cool.
He's exciting.
He's Mr. Panache.
So anyways, I got to meet him.
And then I was telling Mark the story.
But he's never heard of Scott Hamilton.
So I told him all this reverence I have, but in the fashion of Tuesdays with
Stories.
So I was like, he's a big bald homo.
He eats gum.
And did this whole thing.
And then some fan of ours knows Scott Hamilton.
He's like, I told him to listen to the pod.
What?
You don't do that.
He waits on him regularly.
And then he saw him again.
He's like, did you listen to that?
He goes, yeah, I listened to it.
Not my cup of tea.
So Scott Hamilton, one of my boyhood idols, listened to me.
And who knows what Mark said?
I mean, Mark is 100 times worse than I am.
And so it was just two guys being like, oh, he eats goo.
He loves whatever.
And they listened to it.
So now I can't ever see Scott Hamilton again.
And I thought we had something.
I mean, that's the fact that I got back to Scott Hamilton is insane.
You think like somebody in the industry, an actor, a musician, something.
Yeah, no.
He listened.
And I just picture him sitting there and being like, what the fuck?
Yeah.
He's like, they're calling me ugly and gay.
I don't even think he's gay.
I think he's got to be.
No.
I don't know.
That's a lot of panache for a straight guy.
Yeah.
That's what's so cool about him.
Married since 2002.
No kidding.
To a woman?
Tracy Hamilton.
Tracy is androgynous, though.
That can go either way.
That's a good point.
Wonderful looking woman.
Nice little blonde.
There you go.
I wonder what kind of cash he makes.
I bet he does.
I think he does well.
I heard the Olympic people that they have regular jobs.
Oh, the Olympians do.
Yeah, because the thing about Olympians is they can't be professionals, right?
Yeah, but a lot of times it's weird.
What?
Scotty Hamilton's like iconic.
He does the thing.
I think he does corporate stuff.
I don't know.
I mean, let's get an estimated net worth.
$12 million, I'm going to say.
$22.
He does on a broadcast.
I'm going to say $4.5 million.
$4.5 million?
That's crazy.
I don't know.
You may be thinking he had a day job a second ago.
Keep checking this guy when he's down.
Estimated net worth around $9 million to $30 million.
Okay.
That's a big window.
But this thing also thinks I have $4 million.
Does it?
Yeah, something like that.
I mean, I have some money, obviously.
That's a $170 on me.
You went down.
You went down.
$2 million.
That Hamilton's got some pull.
You guys want some of these?
I'll get you some of these.
You want one?
What's your team?
That $2 million's not accurate at all?
I'd like to know what you're holding.
You're a saver.
I'd rather not get into it.
Those files are sealed.
I live in Battery Park City.
It's not easy down there.
Are you kidding?
He's rich, Foley.
He's rich.
It's a lot.
You've always been somewhat smart with money, though, right?
I don't know.
Not really.
Can I tell you something?
I shouldn't say this publicly.
I am missing a very large chunk of money right now because I have an investor
guy.
He's one of these Long Island accent.
He's like, you've got to send me your money, brother.
You've got all your money in a savings account.
You fuck.
I'm actually stupid with money because I have all my money in a savings account.
And everyone I talk to is like, you're a big idiot.
No, that's good.
Yeah, no.
I think that's not good.
We're from the 80s.
We think that's good.
I like mine sitting right where I can see.
I'm not giving it some greaseball from Long Island.
Really going straight up.
The market's going to crash and all that stuff.
You keep it in the savings account.
With my money.
It pops back up.
But anyways, this guy was like, hey, you're going to send me all your money.
What are you doing?
This should be in the market working for you.
And I was like, you're right, buddy.
And I went to the bank, got a bank check for an undisclosed amount of money.
Mailed it to him.
It's like two weeks.
I forgot about it.
I mailed a check.
Two weeks later, I'm like, hey, you never told me you got it.
He's like, I haven't gotten that.
And I'm like, and it's a bank check.
So it comes out of the account.
So I just got money just floating out there.
He never got it.
Hasn't gotten it.
I've had to do that with a rent, like a certified rent check.
It's hairy.
But no one can cash it.
They can't cash it.
Yeah.
It says my name on it.
It's written to me.
So they got to have a thing that says Joseph List.
But there might be some Joe List walking around out there with a.
The check's written to you?
Yeah.
A check you wrote to yourself?
Yeah, because he's got my account.
Right?
No.
You wrote a check to him.
No, no.
I wrote it to me.
What?
Because he handles.
Has your account.
He handles my.
Right, right, right.
So somebody.
Well, now who do you have in charge of looking into that?
Shouldn't that be that guy's problem?
No.
I got to like call the bank or kiss.
He's like, don't worry about it.
They didn't take it.
Don't worry about it.
This guy has your money.
They totally took it.
He might have my money.
What kind of snowblower you got us mixed up with?
I'm fucked.
With all due respect, I'm going to sit over there.
But the problem is, I don't know.
I don't know what to do.
I called the bank.
They don't answer.
This is not 1985.
Nobody's just answering phones over there.
So what do I do?
It's a great Louis bid.
You ever walk by the bank and see people in there?
What are you doing in there cleaning?
So I don't know.
Was this your first foray into investment?
Foray.
Foray.
No.
I got some money in the thing.
And he was like, you should give me more money.
He said, and I quote, give me all your money.
Where'd you meet this guy?
I don't know.
In the back of the Boston Phoenix ad.
I think the check is either coming back or if it was checked.
When was this?
Two weeks ago?
It was about two weeks ago.
But the U.S. mail is fucked up.
It's not easy to get from Manhattan to Long Island.
It's like three days.
What are you talking about?
Yeah.
As I'm saying this, I'm starting to get nervous.
A while.
I'm going to check my email.
I don't know my phone.
Take the hockey sweater back.
Email you the check?
This guy don't know what's going on.
No, no.
He's supposed to email when he's received.
But it's probably bouncing back.
I probably wrote the wrong address.
They're not getting far with the check.
Right?
Very true.
Very true.
I think so.
It should have been there one to three business days, Google's saying.
No, but the mail is.
You don't know the mail.
It never ends.
They can wipe your name off of it and put another name on there.
But if that was the case.
Not if it's printed, I don't think.
But the problem is I can't see if it's CAD.
I can go to the bank and then they can check to see if it's been.
Represented.
Yeah.
You're fine.
I think I'll be all right.
Luke got this.
Yikes.
This is bad.
Yeah.
This is real bad.
Got a whale sitting here.
What are we doing?
It's a chunk.
I can say that.
Good for you.
Yeah.
It's trouble.
Yeah, I'm doing okay, you know.
This guy tries to invest and loses the check.
Yeah.
He's like a world's worst investor.
No.
Yeah.
The short answer is I'm bad.
I mean, I order McDonald's delivered every day.
I get like $50 McDonald's sent to me.
What's that order looking like?
Double quarter pounder, cheese, no ketchup.
I mean, I'd catch you up only.
This is just for you.
You're not ordering for the house.
No.
Is this lunch?
You're a bit of a lone wolf when it comes to eating.
Yeah, yeah.
Sarah's in there cooking up a meal, broccoli, the whole thing, and I get
McDonald's right
over.
That's all.
You did a Chick-fil-A yesterday.
No onions on the quarter pounder?
No, no, no.
I'm eating over here.
No.
Okay.
I go plain beef, cheese, bun, ketchup, double fries.
Double fries?
Yeah.
Two large fries?
Well, my son eats a couple, and I want to make sure I have all the fries.
Two large fries?
One large, one medium.
Really?
Yeah.
One and a half.
1.5.
Yeah.
Pretty good.
Any kickers on the side?
No.
No kicker.
No appetizers?
No.
Nothing.
If I go to Starbucks, get a brownie afterwards.
Good gentleman.
I know how to live.
You do.
You're doing all right.
I'm doing all right.
I'm a little fat in the waist, but I work out, and I got a big sweater.
I've got the big sweater.
I think Liz is losing it.
Oh, I'm losing it, baby.
There's a lot going on here.
AI and the things and the comedy.
You just said America was back two seconds ago.
Well, we're back, but, you know, we're back.
The mail's fucked up.
I don't know what to do about the check.
Now I'm fucked up in my head.
Is this bad?
No, you're okay.
They can't cash the check.
And if I said to the bank, I'd say, hey, I don't know who this is.
Give me my money back.
Don't they give you your money back for that?
Yeah, they'll figure it out.
I don't know.
I think.
I'll write it off.
All these big companies.
Kevin, let's talk about Pesty.
Shout out to Pesty, Pesty, Pesty.
Let's talk about Pesty.
Gang, got a bug problem at the house.
Do yourself a favor.
Get a hold of Pesty.
Thank you.
