Speaker 1 (00:00):
Man, I slept well last night. I was in a
deep fog, like you wake up. You love those nights,
you don't know why you get them sometimes and other
times you're restless. Well, I had one of those really,
from like two in the morning till seven. It was
like deep. I mean I went to bed eleven ten thirty,

(00:24):
so eleven something like that. But when you get into
that deep sleep and then you wake up and you're
not quite sure where you are, what planet you're on
or whatever. And so I dutifully decided I'm still going
to go get my wife's coffee. So I rolled out,
took the path that I know. And when you do
it every day, you do it by rote. You can

(00:45):
just absolutely just do it by feel, because you know
where you're headed and what you're doing, even if you
are a trifle groggy. So I'm rolling along thinking my
dumb bald guy thoughts, and all of a sudden I
look out my window and there's a figure, kind of
a shadow shadowy figure. He's wearing all dark clothing. He's
strolling down the sidewalk, arms just flailing around like I

(01:10):
don't know what's going on. What kind of I thought
to myself, What kind of an exercise regiment is this?

Speaker 2 (01:14):
What is it?

Speaker 1 (01:15):
But then I noticed he wasn't really walking in a
straight line. He was sort of meandering, yet his arms
kept flailing. As I got closer, I realized, it's Tony Vanetti,
Hey Vanetti, everybody.

Speaker 2 (01:30):
And by the way, you stand up till eleven o'clock
at night? What are you? Paris Hilton? What the hell
stay up that lady? Ate dinner at four? What the hell?

Speaker 1 (01:42):
Eleven seven eight hours? That's a good night. And it
was all right, Beneddie, I'm rolling along. I see you,
and I have to know what are you stealing things
from people's garages or you've taken in garbage cans for people?
What are you doing?

Speaker 2 (01:58):
I'm strictly I I stick to this trickt Henry Sadlow.
You need forty two minutes of walking a day, not
forty one, not forty three. Forty two minutes a day.
He told me to do it. So I walked Saint
Matthew's every morning, Terry Minors and yes, and I was
not playing around. Maybe I was stealing stuff out of
the mailboxes, that possibility, but I was. I was at

(02:21):
a good pace because I got to keep under a
certain minute per mile.

Speaker 1 (02:25):
Okay, I saw you, and it was I was perplexed
by the vision. That's all you need some You probably
need some accompaniment. Let's see what we could roll here. Yeah,
that's the right piece of music for this one. Tonyne,
when he's strolling down the street, this is what the
music would sound like. He's just kind of rolling along,
this sort of bob in his head, just checking out

(02:47):
what's going on or maybe or maybe he's wondering, because
when I honked the horn, you just threw your arm
up instinctively, as though, oh, it's just another fan. Hello.

Speaker 2 (03:01):
Actually that's the music. The music I played. It is
actually the music in d white Witt and Head at
any given time during the day. But I, yes, yes,
it's the normal people honk all the time. This is
my neighborhood. I know everybody in the neighborhood. And I
do the whole way up and I was like, I
think that was the old man minors and and yes,

(03:24):
so I do take a I usually take a route
through Trinity, but then school started, so I don't want
to go over there and messing with that, So I
take a rite on Chennawick lane and come right up
that path.

Speaker 1 (03:35):
Well that was impressive. How is it that you and
I have been neighbors for this many years and I've
not seen you since this morning?

Speaker 2 (03:43):
Well, I don't know, because we do. I walk all
the time in the morning. As it clears the head,
I listen to a little bit of how ridiculous my
own show is on a podcast, and and just get
the You know, Jackie's at home doing whatever she's doing.
But I got to get my steps in. I got
to do my thing. Plus, since I'm the first husband
of Saint Matthew's council person, Jackie Benetti, walkability. Walk Ability

(04:06):
is a word, and that is like the most concerned
that Saint Matthew's people are is we need more walkabilities.
Sidewalk suck. We need to fix those. So I'm doing
her service by walking the walkability of Saint Matthew's. There.

Speaker 1 (04:22):
We were speculating, Tony that maybe you didn't know where
you were going, and the Jackie sneaks an air tag
in your back pocket and then after so many minutes
or half an hour or forty two minutes, she just
drives to find you with a GPS.

Speaker 2 (04:36):
Well, you know me dude, so I go. He always
yells at me wear a shirt because I will do
the shirtless guy walking down Saint Matthew's. But it's the
last thing. She yells and put a shirt on. For
God's sake. She doesn't scare the kid. And I do
put a shirt on, as you watched earlier today. But
I do. And I don't know if you do. You
have an Apple watch or do you have a watch?

(04:57):
They count you? Okay, okay, don't get one because the
thing you have rings that you have to accomplish every day,
and you become beholden to your watch. You so it
tells you at the end of the day what you
did or what you didn't do. So I've become that
weird o OCD to where I don't want to disappoint

(05:20):
my Apple watch without completing my rings. All right? Does
that make sense?

Speaker 1 (05:25):
It does. That's why I make my dog walk on
our treadmill. He's taking steps on my behalf. It keeps
count vent. I just put him on there and he
are we doing this again? I'm sitting there eating an apple.

Speaker 2 (05:37):
You know I can see it.

Speaker 1 (05:39):
I have a question for you. You live on one
side of tennant with lane and I live on the
other side. We get City of Louisville garbage service. This morning,
after I got the coffee for my wife, instead of
going dautifully home and delivering it, I thought, I want
to see where Vanette is because I knew one place
you weren't heading, and that was to church. So I
started driving around the neighborhood a little bit and I

(06:01):
couldn't find you. But your garbage crew was out there
and there were two dudes working. Instead of what we get,
we get the one guy driving the truck with the
claw arm that picks it up, you know, like a
vending machine.

Speaker 2 (06:13):
Yeah, yeah, oh yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1 (06:14):
You had two guys working and they there were two
guys picking up a table that's someone throughout and it
took both of those grown men to lift. Are you
guys allowed to just throw anything out there and they
take it?

Speaker 2 (06:28):
I will. I am not endorsed in any way, but
would like to Rumky is fantastic. They we have Runky
and they will if you whatever you put out there,
they'll take it. And if it's a lot, you just
tell them. You call them and say, hey, I got
an extra. If it's like a Tuesday or Wednesday. It's
not garbage day, it's they have a couch. They'll actually
comment on your off garbage day. Come get it. Rumky's fantastic.

(06:52):
Those those guys are great. So yeah we're Rumky. So
Daryl Isaacs and I are on the same because there
I'm on one side of Holy Trinity, Terarilize on the other.
And we got we got Runky. You got the city guy.

Speaker 1 (07:04):
Oh so the city guy is nice, but he can't
do anything except take that claw arm and just lift it. Okay,
one time there was there was a guy parked in
front of my driveway and he took the claw and
lifted that car out of the way so I could
go get the coffee. So there are benefits, all right. Well,
we just wanted some clarification on your direction and intent

(07:26):
in the early morning stroll and Eddie, it was impressive
your pace going.

Speaker 2 (07:29):
On, and I would love to join me anytime. Terry Miners,
we'll do our walk in the mornings through Saint Matthew's
and wave to random people that honk running to get
their coffee for their wives.

Speaker 1 (07:40):
You looked enough like sasquatch. I was worried somebody was
going to hit you with a juice dart, you know,
tranquilizer dart terry.

Speaker 2 (07:49):
Since I'm now if you ask Greg Gallied, well, I
am now at the age of They have a thing
called seniors stroll the bases after the game, and I
know now qualify to become a senior that walks strong.
They don't even call it walk. They go stroll the
basis after Sunday games. And that was that great. Thanks,

(08:10):
thank you, Greg. Ellia.

Speaker 1 (08:11):
Don't pass out on your walk because those rumky guys
will pick you up. I'm throwing the back. I can
feel that already.

Speaker 2 (08:16):
Hey, they know trash when they see it.

Speaker 1 (08:18):
Good to talk to Vannetti see it soon. That is
Tony Bevenetti, our midday host, who I did see out
for a stroll this morning, and yes he was walking aimlessly.
