49. The Sweet Cream of Justice | The Always Sunny Podcast

all right Glenn let's let's get after it what happened here what happened not a great story man it's really like I I wish it was as radical as when I broke my collarbone snowboarding but it is so isn't it was just it was really embarrassing actually I was uh you know I have a cat that's 20 years old she's very very old and uh we've had her I've had her pretty much her whole life um and then we got a couple dogs a couple years ago did you kick the dog I didn't kick the dog did you kick the cat I'm trying to make my neck hurt [Laughter] the toe neck you didn't get this well so so yeah okay all right so so I think I broke my toe yesterday but then I woke up this morning and I and and my neck was [ __ ] up so I was like oh my god oh I didn't see that in the text all I saw was were photos of your foot and I couldn't get past it okay yeah yeah yeah uh all right so I'll get to the neck thing but uh so and it may maybe maybe what happened how I broke my toe is what triggered the neck to begin with OR set set me up for neck failure uh but uh long story short we have to put up a gate right so our house is divided in half the cat has one half of that and then all of you live on the other side you've awarded the cat half your home the cats and dogs just they can't you know humans they can't live together they can't they just can't live together and and in some circumstances when cats and dogs do live together uh peacefully is that I I always imagine that's because the dog was there either the dog and the cat came at the same time or uh and the cat was a kitten or the dogs were there first that's what I've got comes in today okay what am I saying dogs cats getting along just fine but dogs were there first yeah cat came in but when the cat came in was introduced in our house the cat kicked the dog's ass like I mean oh yeah yeah established dominance absolutely and now it's it's stasis yeah our cat my cat was like I'm from the streets you know like back and the dogs were like I'm from somewhere fancy I don't know I don't know created I'm from their wombs yeah yeah my cat is 20 so she can't do that no yeah you have the ability to do that and my my dogs just look at her and they're just like oh delicious uh or I just want to play with that yeah I want a thing or whatever you know riled up anyway so we got to keep them separated um and uh and so we have the dog gate and the dog Gate's not that hard to step over you know but it's a little awkward and sometimes you snag your toe on it right or whatever like you just kind of kick it a little bit you're like it's annoying and then you just keep moving uh I'm gonna guess that that enrages you when it happens yeah I know I know the feeling I've tripped over that thing a couple times and your first reaction is like why the [ __ ] you're like um I hate this [ __ ] gate yeah yeah yeah yeah in this particular instance though I really caught the almost the whole foot were you moving at a good clip I was carrying a bunch of stuff I had a bunch of stuff flying everywhere in a humorous way Yes actually it did oh well that's good I was caring I had a I had a metal like a you know a stainless steel water bottle and something else so you got a good clang when he dropped it yeah yeah so it was even better than Jill had a suitcase like right near where I was falling also that was upright so I trip over the gate I fall I'm basically doing a face plant right the water bottle goes flying out of my hands it it clangs super loud onto the ground the only thing that saves me is the suitcase I grabbed the suitcase so instead of having to land on the hard ground I I like you know grab the suitcase and just like landed on the suitcase with my hands you know what I mean and I was like you know Jill comes firing out of the out of the office she's on a phone call and she's like something happened something happened and then she comes firing out of the office and she's like she's like are you okay and I was like I was like yeah I just I tripped over the gate I was like I I hate that [ __ ] gate I think I you know cursed at the gate a little bit but I was like no but I'm I think I'm okay I'm all right I'm fine and I was with my buddy uh Rich up hell because we were doing a writing session and uh and rich is just laughing at me um and I was like okay no I think I think I'm fine I hate that [ __ ] gate we gotta get Mike all right whatever and then so rich and I go downstairs to the to to my office to to work and all of a sudden like I just start I'm like oh there's something wrong with that toe and then I looked at it and there was like a little like it looked like it was kind of jutting out on the side a little bit like like maybe I I don't know like maybe I broke it broke it yeah yeah so I think I broke the toe I don't know how the toe got broken by the way I didn't land on the toe I didn't that's not even what got snagged on the game barefoot no I was wearing like slides did they go flying as well oh do you have cameras no no I do like security cameras and [ __ ] right outside nah I don't have them inside we drew the line at having security cameras inside we were like that's just creepy yeah um I don't think the shoes went flying I think I managed to keep the the slides on uh and maybe that's what broke my toe I don't know but it's uh and then I woke up this morning it was yeah I sent you guys the picture maybe we should put it on the podcast that's pretty gross yeah it's pretty we've been saying we want to get more feet we've got to get more feet on the spot yeah yeah we just established that people are obsessed with uh people's feet so yeah why not and then I woke up this morning totally unrelated possibly and just and I was like like it was like one of those things where you know you're 46 years old and uh my alarm goes off and you know I I go to get up out of bed and I was like oh ah I was like oh [ __ ] now I'm walking around my house like trying to get ready to come here this morning and I'm like I can't I'm actually I walk fine but it it's slowing me down a little bit because like I make whatever it's talking to me the whole time let's just move on to something else [Music] I drank a lot last night really yeah again oh cause you went out I went out but I didn't Emmy partner yes Caitlyn wanted to go Caitlyn was nominated for neme and I and we did not go to the Emmys but we went to the she wanted to go to the After parties to be clear she was not nominated for It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia because that doesn't happen she was nominated for hacks yes um and so we went to the after party but it didn't start until 9 or 9 30. now I'm I'm usually in bed at 9 30. 10 o'clock I'm in I'm definitely late start to party that's yeah at this point in life you gotta edit the school night right so you know you're gonna we both had to get up we both had to get up nice and early without room you didn't get the get the nanny or babysitter to no spend the night what time did you guys leave that Sunday night party oh late late 12 30. oh actually I have an amazing story about that but I want I'll I'll tell that later go ahead I was just commiserating with how how I was feeling I'm actually feeling okay but so you you're right you're a little hungover I drank an entire Manhattan before I left the house because sure because why not because yeah Manhattan time it was past Manhattan time yeah what's going on now usually you drink in Manhattan go to sleep but now I'm drinking the Manhattan I'm going out this man's unable to have to like go through a night without having a Manhattan so what time do you usually have your men have I usually have it around seven o'clock it's about like 6 40. 6 45 my body's like okay you know where is it seven it's like yeah now it's time 7 15. it's best yeah you need you're you're you're starting to with food after no I eat dinner I eat dinner first so it's honest it's not a full stomach but it's a good three shots of whiskey oh I've seen your Manhattan yeah yeah three three something about it's I don't actually measure it now when you say three shots we talk in one and a half ounce shots are we talking like oh yeah I fill it up as we've discussed I fill it up to the brim but it's bigger than those glasses there it's it's it's three shots to one so it's three shots of um of bourbon and one shot of vermouth and I can handle that um so I'm feeling pretty good when I go to the party but then I had you had florals old fashions a Monday morning I woke up just been like what was I thinking man it's a school day I gotta get I gotta get the kid to school I'm like I'm I can't I can't drive a car so for the listener what we're talking about is there's a there's a big preemie party that happens uh the Sunday night before the Emmys and we uh went to this uh went to this party and you know you see a bunch of friends that you haven't seen in a really long time and you get after it yeah which we don't do very often these days no this this year the party was very loud there were some live Snoop Dogg performed that was very cool 50 Cent performed that was really cool and it sounded great but it was a little harder to socialize yeah and you can hear it in my voice that's not the alcohol that's me screaming over the that's the concert so that's two nights in a row that that we went out yeah so we were screaming over the music you know uh that night and then you know I broke my toe and screamed about that's more and ruined my voice even more which is why my voice is messed up and then something else happened I screamed about too but we won't get into that but what was your great story at the party you said you had an amazing okay well I'm building it up too much but uh this this is amazing so so um you know FX was kind enough to provide us with a with a car okay what time did you leave the party at that night yeah uh 11 30 something okay what time did you leave yeah like midnight okay okay so the party was supposed to go to midnight right so my car was booked apparently to midnight so we left at 12 30. my car was [ __ ] gone and I'm texting the guy and he's like he was like he was like no you were supposed I was supposed to drop you off at midnight and I was like buddy I don't have a curfew what the [ __ ] are you talking about wait a second yeah uh same thing for me so we left now I'm piecing it together but we left at like 11 50 and the guy said good I'm glad you're leaving because you have the car to midnight and he was very he was really scary like sized man yeah and he was a very sweet guy and he kind of like was he liked me and Mary Elizabeth so he would like was staying a little bit later for us but yeah they they were like yeah there's like a pumpkin effect you know at midnight this thing's gone and yeah you couldn't believe it we're walking out of this party you know it's a it's it's a very fancy Emmy party everybody's dressed up in cocktail everybody's got like you know let's talk about champagne problems this reminds me of the last episode when we one of the tweets was something about how like these tired olds this is this is this is what you get guys you know like there's something you don't have to watch you but we're irritated about our fancy things listen Mike Mike we're hungover we know you're on the way to work right now and you're listening to this and you're and you're about to get up on a roof yeah and I get that I get that cleanse limousine left my ass the party that he was at and couldn't take Tim back to his house discount card it's so big he can give half of it is so big he gets he gives half a bit to a cat to a dog yep and then I go by the way I don't know if you also caught this but Jill came out of her office because she was concerned about me and then I went down to my house basement it ready for California because that's an earthquake nightmare that became that can become a tomb no no there's there's we've got Escape hatches don't worry about it uh he's had Escape patches put into his domicile is he a man with tunnels that's code you gotta have you gotta have an Escape Route but it's embarrassing you know it's all these fancy people here you know you're you're walking out of the party you see a lot of your friends they're all walking on everybody's getting into their cars I see Paul Walter Hauser there again and I'm like and and Jill was like hey maybe we can jump in with Paul and I was like that's just that's embarrassing it's like I can't do that man so we called an Uber and it were black yeah an Uber SUV yeah and did that take you home yeah and it got there in one minute and and it took us to the hotel oh great because oh yes we were smart enough to get a hotel room that night because we didn't want to have to wake up and take the kids to school so we was just like the Four Seasons or something in that that's right now so somewhere in Beverly Hills yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah the weird thing about those After parties though man lots of upset people oh really oh yeah oh you can feel it there's something there's a palpable disappointment because look here's here's the the truth of it there is not that we would really know but in talking to many friends who are nominated year after year after year who don't win we act so we're never invited to the party we're never even nominated which we're not even asked to like present an award which which pisses us off to a certain extent but it frees us up that night as opposed to people that get dressed up starting at two o'clock in the afternoon because it's West Coast time it's 100 trees they go there they sit there and the first second third Award of the night is presented they don't get it and they got to sit there for three hours poor people oh listen all you guys that are on your way to work you know you don't know brought to a fancy party and and given a free beautiful dress for talks and it's yeah it's air-conditioned in there but it's too cold yeah and it's and it toxins your tux is a little tight because I want to fit right because you've been stress eating because you think you're going to win some big award and have to give her you're starving because you've been starving yourself to fit into your tuxedo or your dress yeah yeah and and so you're suffering in that regard and then there you gotta sit there and listen to some uh funny stand-up comedian you know present all these Awards and uh boy I tell you it's it's just like it's just like Plumbing you know what I mean I'll say I watched a little bit of it because um because Caitlyn was on a show that was nominated and uh Keenan was the host he's really okay he was really funny I thought he was really really yeah and a great guy man how unbelievably self-congratulatory is the entire bro I mean that's what the whole thing is anyway but man it is like an they won't even have editors on the show they got arbitrary awards for Imaginary achievements sure I mean it's absolutely I mean but really like it's like it's true you can't there's no way to qualify it yeah you know like so if you win a green jacket for the Masters you won that [ __ ] yeah yeah you showed up for four days and you got the ball in the hole and less shots than anybody else and there's no disputing it yeah and like with any kind of acting award and you're like I don't know like how can you win like best comedy actor and then like leave a party and bump into like Danny McBride you know I mean I'd be like oh this guy's not even like on the radar yeah yeah yeah and he doesn't get he didn't get he's one of the funniest people yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah uh there's a it's not Madness a common misconception amongst uh Hollywood people that or maybe the general public that the awards were created just as yes self-congratulation but also as like a marketing Ploy just to get people to pay attention to the so I did a little research into this because I was like wait what why why was this started it seems like a interesting and fascinating you're researching what what started the Emmy yeah what started like the Oscars the Emmys and it was like way more nefarious than that it was that the studio heads who were used to having people under contract for years and years notice that the the artists were starting to speak to one another and unionize and create companies together what they realized was we can't have that oh they needed to create we need to create competition amongst these people and let them throw them a bone have them all fight amongst each other as to who's the who's the funniest who's the best who's the who's who's the most deserving of our attention and love and like children they will destroy each other amazing that's brilliant it's fun if you win it is fun yeah Megan is the only uh no wait a minute oh yeah oh wait yeah wait wait wait wait you want an Emmy I did win an Emmy when I was writing for Modern Family did I know this and I'm forgetting I I don't know I don't mention it every episode but it's it's surprising that it's not sort of I know yeah you should maybe bring it in and put it on your desk for a little bit Yeah Yeah speaking of Modern Family uh I met I said hello to Jesse Tyler Ferguson who I never met well I'm pretty sure had absolutely no idea no yes no he does he does I've had him over for dinner at my house yeah yeah yeah he knows he knows the show he just didn't recognize me maybe you just don't you don't pop off the show I think no I think I look so good at the event I look so good this is like this is obviously like some kind of action superhero you did look at all of our wives look really good I looked it back at some of those photos and Mary Elizabeth looks amazing Caitlyn and then I look at us I'm like yeah I'm just like middle-aged guys yes he looks good yeah look good I thought I thought we did I don't know I don't know I I don't like the uh I don't like the picture that that came out of that FX Vanity Fair party of me I don't know it's like we took we took like you know they did they took like 30 pictures of me and the one they chose this I'm like this I'm like [Laughter] [Music] you know one shoulders up I look I look like uh I don't know how to you know I look like I can't sit up because there's no Direction yeah get into like more like ghoul characters more ghouls you gotta keep evolving you know you gotta change yeah that's true I would love to play more Ghouls and hunchbacks foreign have you guys ever taken like an online quiz that just totally nailed you as a person oh yeah yeah are we talking like those uh BuzzFeed uh quizzes like which Harry Potter character are you oh yeah yeah no I was not I was not talking about that but is that your thing yeah which is it though which one which character your Draco Malfoy oh he's Draco yeah Draco that's pretty cool he was yeah

cool rob you had an experience with the French recently where you uh what was it you went to the country what I'd like to do is I'd like to have some French people call in because I want to have some conversations now again you can't I'm not going to demonize an entire country when you say French people I think we need to clarify we're talking about people who are from France like who lived in France like grew up in France like possibly most of their lives yes they should have an accident one of my best friends in New York City and my roommate was French he was wonderful his family was wonderful all like and he would have his friends come in from France and they were fantastic people yeah okay so obviously it's not an entire nation but there is a stereotype about the French that I find to be very often true I will say though I I was in Switzerland right one side is uh speaks German and then the other side that borders France uh the primary language is French and this was French lovely oh well like the French Canadians we're talking about France France you're talking about the France France the France French yeah it's a whole thing that's a whole thing I had an almost and Caitlyn will corroborate this entire thing because she was right there and witnessed the whole thing okay it was almost a physical altercation with a French woman and I did nothing she was a little kind of hot she was not attractive oh she was bumping into me even better it was it was bizarre all right set it up take me there take me there I couldn't take my cigarette I'm in France for a layover we're on our way to Wales you're doing a little layup in France just a little layoffs doing layups in France and we go into this one particular section where they where they where they hold you so you're in the airport I'm in the airport Everyone's an [ __ ] in the airport sure there is definitely a a higher level of anxiety at an at an airport but I think you account for that especially if you work at the airport as did this woman oh yes dude Court yeah that's like food court area and the the first thing we hear is a woman within a British accent and she's saying all I want is a glass of water can you just please bring me a glass of water and this woman is saying in a French accent which I will not try to replicate ma'am please will you just go sit down if you'd like to fill out a report you can fill out a report and she's saying I don't want to report I just want a glass of water there is no water now my first reaction was Karen this is a Karen who needs to talk to the manager right and that's what she kept saying like who's your boss where is the manager and I was like oh that's like Karen RIT large yeah so Caitlin and I kind of roll our eyes we go sit down we feel so bad for the employees that they have to deal with this woman so we then notice that the woman doesn't get her glass of water but she goes over and she's got a baby and the baby I mean an infant right and and the infant is is being rocked by her husband her husband is like trying to calm her down and we're like what is going on here but then we look around and there's there's no nothing like this is a cafeteria so the whole point of it is to eat and drink and all of the water pitchers are completely empty and all and so we're like oh so this woman like wanted wanted some water which she paid for because you like pay a fee and then you eat it's like a buffet style right yeah so we're like okay so I don't know who's in the wrong who's in the right whatever a few but the scales of Justice I've been watching this and we're like okay you're right I'm hearing who's in the room right absolutely now my kids constantly monitoring this my kids are sitting there right my kids are sitting there and Caitlyn is sitting there and I'm sitting there and I'm actually I feel pretty good I have a full night's sleep on the way over there so I'm feeling I'm feeling great maybe you've got a bottle of smart water in your backpack yeah I didn't have anybody the water didn't need any water you were already watching now I'm watching I'm watching what's happening because I'm watching her go back to her husband and I'm expecting the husband to explode or whatever but no he's just like it's okay well he's British yes and then she picks up the baby and she's walking around with the baby and I realized I'm thinking well this woman seems kind of actually pretty sweet and all she wanted was a glass of water and then Caitlyn goes over to get a glass of water and there's no water and she's like wow I just want to get a glass a glass water I was like oh this is this is gonna be amazing yeah and then she goes you know what I just wanna I'm just gonna get some caught some coffee said okay so she goes and fills up some coffee but she can't find any milk and we see the milk and the cream is also empty now again this is not just like a Lobby of like a random like a subway station this is actually there for this very purpose right we pay a fee you eat the goddamn food but I'm like and and then I said you want me to get you some milk and then Caitlyn actually said yeah but I don't want you to get into a whole thing with the uh basically you're like when do you want me to step in yeah do you want to get involved yes I will be I will be perfectly perfectly nice and sweet and I will just ask where the at first where the milk is and so I I now this same woman is over there and she's like cleaning this area right where the milk and the coffee the woman that the other woman was asking for water earlier yes and the woman was very clearly speaking in English to to this woman yeah so I walk over to the woman and I and I recognize I'm not in my own country and that people speak French I don't speak French but it's an airport I just watched her speak English so but I'll be respectful and I'll just say excuse me and I'll point to to the thing and I'll say do you have any more of this and I say hi excuse me and she looks up at she and she rolls her eyes immediately and I said oh and now I'm already like oh yeah yeah so that Rob Justice did you ask her if there was a phone booth somewhere where you could and I said I'm so sorry um do you have any more milk and I pointed to it I said just the milk is empty and she goes uh she said something in French and I said I'm so sorry I I don't I've apologized four times already yeah I'm so sorry I don't I don't speak French but I'm just looking for this for milk and she goes over there she didn't even say that she said it in French she like pointed and says like go go away go over there go over there and I was like oh sorry is it over there and she just looks at me and she goes and I said oh okay great so I go over to the other station no milk nothing just nothing around there and there's nobody else there so then there was I I walk like around to a different area and there was a woman there and she was dressed in the Garb of people who work at at the cafeteria and I say sorry I'm looking for milk for coffee and she just dead pan stares at me and says I don't speak and I heard her say English like I don't how do you say I don't speak English in French [Music] and I was and I literally said the same thing sorry I know I don't I don't speak French I just want milk and she just goes go away and I was like holy [ __ ] she said go go away I [ __ ] [ __ ] you not go away and I was like oh I guess you speak English and then she goes seal excuse me and she walks away and I'm like what the [ __ ] this is uh I feel like this isn't a movie this is there's no way this is outrageous can I ask how busy this cafeteria is is it like packed with people no no empties okay empty now I walk over to the woman with the baby and I say hi and she's like hi I'm like did you get your glass of water yet and she was like no they just like refused to bring me water and I'm like okay this is [ __ ] nuts so I go back to the woman who was cleaning up it again and I said we paid money to be here I want a glass of water and I want milk right and she says the same thing like I don't I don't speak English and then she bumps into me and I don't move I just stand there like she's trying to get past me yeah and she's like she looks right at me and I'm like go get security go get security and she goes something in French something in French something in French and I was like I'm not gonna move until you bring me a glass of water and milk now Caitlyn is like that's exactly how I feel I'm like am I an ugly American right now right so I'm going through the checklist and I'm like I have apologized ten thousand times yeah I recognize that I don't speak French I'm not I'm not suggesting that you should know how to speak English but you've already demonstrated that you do yes you work in an airport we paid a fee to be here and you have a chip on your shoulder about Americans and clearly the British as well to the point where you want to pick a fight with us for some reason and I'm just not having it so I just don't move and then she goes around me and my kids are just like Dad Dad Dad stop and I'm like [ __ ] oh my God people are walking in and now like everybody's invested because when we first walked in we were so embarrassed for this British woman yeah who was like making a Ruckus and now everybody is looking at me and this woman because now she's walked away and she's going to talk to her co-worker another co-worker and they're like yelling at me in French and I'm yelling back and back in English people are all like watching us and I'm like oh now I'm the the app yeah you're the American [ __ ] yeah now I'm the Karen yeah you're the Kevin and So So eventually some nobody brings us water nobody brings us milk but they they restock it and when I walk back over there um i s I said something I just didn't even say anything to her I just looked at her and she looked at me and I said what do you want to say and then she said uh she said um I'm I'm gonna go get security and I said oh you speak English now and she goes yes and she turns around and walks away and I was like what the [ __ ] this is insane I can't wait to talk to security so I get the water I get the milk which they've just restocked I come back nobody comes back of course we then we then wind up sitting next to the woman with the baby on the plane she couldn't have been sweeter could have been nicer was traveling back from London all she wanted was a glass of water now again this could be an isolated incident it could have been just one person or if it's it there's a system it's it's there's a systemic issue let's find out with I think you're right I think we should have some French people call in talk about their experiences with Americans and you know because maybe something happened along the lines where well of course now this these people were doing it to this uh this this British woman as well but where you know they're they've got a chip on their shoulders specifically about Americans because they find them to be so crass and rude and clearly they do and then I'm my behavior is just reinforcing that but from a but she she both both of the people recognize what the situation was they they know that they were the aggressors they they absolutely know that they brought it yeah [ __ ] that [ __ ] it's not if you're working as an employee and your job is you know serving people water and someone asks you for a glass of water give them a [ __ ] glass of water yeah there's no excuse for that yeah I think it was like are you so entitled that you believe you deserve a glass of water and milk and the answer is yeah man well if I paid for it and this is a place of business and I'm then yeah then I am actually entitled to it I was at the airport once in in Paris from Mary Elizabeth and I don't know if you remember like where the baggage comes out it's like a gla it's glass so instead of like LAX where you just don't know where these bags are coming from you can see the employees you can see through the glass right and they went on break they went on break for an hour and you could just see them sitting on the bags smoking cigarettes like yeah just well you I mean half a cigarette but put the bag on the thing and have it come through sit been well well I said if you guys couldn't smoke and work at the same time the entire country would shut down I know you can do it yeah you're still smoking yeah so I guess what I'd like to know is I'd like to speak with some French people and I would just want to ask them what their experience is and is it and I'm willing to accept this that that there is just a cultural difference that like being an [ __ ] is is okay and again there are lots of American [ __ ] oh yeah I mean go to yeah any airport in a major city in America and like the people there are exhausted and overworked and grumpy and and you know Jill and I Jill and I uh 12 years ago we did a we spent three months traveling around Europe to many different countries and France definitely stood out as like yeah yeah as being just the people just were rude they were more rude per per square person you know what I mean not everybody was rude certainly not everybody you know what I mean but more people were rude towards it seems more commonly unacceptable as a culture yeah to be to be rude to like 15 different countries yeah and then there was no it was no comparison no comparison yeah where does that start that stereotype comes from something in somewhere so I I would like to I would like to really dig into this I would like to have the discussion with some I think yeah I'd also like to get Caitlyn's uh side of what she saw happening because we we then discussed it and then I you know anytime again like an event like that happens with the kids I sit I I have to ask them like we have to process it because like watching your dad scream at somebody else and back and forth at an airport is like very traumatizing so we talk about it but like I also don't I also want to make sure that they that you know you never want to take things to to a certain level but again I I don't I don't think we should be treated a certain way and if someone's treating you a certain way I can't imagine your dad screaming sorry when I say screaming that's not I know actually raising your voice yes in in Anger not screaming but like standing your ground with a loud voice yes well well because it was it was directed back at me so they were trying to like humiliate me and I was like I was just return returning it and I was most likely escalating it but again yeah I I always had that gear yes yeah right I I picture you always having that you get that from your mom where does that come from I don't know were you a hall monitor at school no my confrontation I'm the same way I I can't I can't I can't handle things like that I don't handle things like that well I probably would have done something very similar yeah I I don't know I mean and if I back off at this point it's so that I don't traumatize my kids or or scare them or embarrass Jill you know what I mean yeah uh it but like if I'm by myself oh [ __ ] forget about it yeah [ __ ] forget about it I I I can't I can't I'm the same way I can't stand that [ __ ] it just feels like there are certain people who walk around the world and they just treat people whatever way that they want and I can't I don't know yeah I'm like I'm not the one you're not gonna treat me like that and I don't think I'm gonna teach you any lessons you're probably not going to change but the lesson I am teaching you right now is get the [ __ ] away from me yeah your [ __ ] ain't gonna work on me yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah and and yes of course upon reflection you feel bad and then I try to process it and say did I handle that in the best of ways like so the the um the in and out thing right so like I came in the next day and we discussed it and we got I was really introspective about that and trying to figure out try to figure out the next time that something like that happens I know that there's a better way to handle that and I have to like work through it and in this circumstance I don't know that there really was a better way to handle that well you injured anyone you just but it could be your opinions culture Clash right and and that is like look and there's no denying the fact that Americans on the whole on the whole I think are more entitled uh we live in a more entitled culture than most other cultures we're like I am entitled to this yes you know what I mean and sometimes sometimes that entitlement is right you know what I mean in in this case I would say that it was right because you paid for service the service was not rendered and so you said Hey listen I paid for a thing I expect to get the thing the thing is is like culturally I think there are a lot of people who are so used to not getting what they want not getting what they need not getting what's certainly not getting what they desire and and and and and they're just they just realize that it's futile to even you know you realize you're like you learn to go through life not getting the things that you've that that we feel like we're entitled to because we have been so fortunate in this country to to have so many opportunities so many things you know uh to live in a world where maybe for the most part the scales of Justice are more balanced than in other places uh but now it's at a point where you know everyone's like okay and the American dream where is it yeah I should I would have it now you know what I mean my barometer for those kinds of things is pretty good meaning like if I just walked around the French airport and was like bring me water you know and I where's my milk to the to the random you know like baggage handler yeah um because I deserve milk yes that would make me an entitled American [ __ ] yes but if someone's gonna charge me you know thirty dollars ahead to come in and eat at your Buffet then yes I believe I'm in that the third that the transaction entitles me to a glass yes and by the way I 100 agree I just think I just think maybe I'm just I'm I'm participating where it becomes a chicken it becomes a chicken or the egg thing too right because then those people have dealt with the worst versions of the Karens or the Rob justices over the last you know 30 years to your point Charlie and now they just assume everybody's like that and that and they act accordingly so when you had a chance to talk you haven't had a chance to talk to Caitlin about this and and her perspective or you just want her to no I'd love for her to weigh in because it's always good to hear a third party perspective of like because you're in the middle of the event and then you have other people can we call her watch I know is she do you think she's around like you can send her Zoom link you guys could zoom let me just call Caitlyn and see if she'll just because it might be fun laughs and now a word from our sponsor betterhelp betterhelp is an online therapy service that

French airport lounge cafeteria section that we went to God Rob told us the whole story but be honest be honest what's your take on it all what from your perspective was it like when Rob Justice got stepped into the picture and got himself involved you know put on his cape put on his mask and you know ripped his ripped his shirt open and became Rob Justice what was that like be honest don't do a bit tell them exactly what happened how did you feel how did you feel how did you feel how did I feel well it escalated very quickly but it I was I was very happy that he was trying to find me some cream because I found coffee now I can't find water and I got coffee and I can't find cream and I'm just tired and I we all were tired and I said I can't find cream for the coffee and he was like okay let me look and he walked up and he asked this woman um where the cream was for the coffee did and I think she kind of ignored you or something I'm I'm not really paying attention I just know that very quickly he turned very upset with this person and he was like uh here's the coffee I don't see any cream and then she was like trying to push past him and he was like are you are you trying you want to get by me just go by me don't touch me just go buy me he's assaulting me she's assaulting me this French woman I was assaulted at an airport okay I just it looked like she was trying to get away from you and walk by you but you needed your cream but the cream was for me so I'm on board but it was she was she was physically bumping into me trying to like it was bizarre he was walking yes towards you and trying to get around you and then yeah you threw you were bouncing off this out and your arms up and you're like you want to go by me go buy me now how are you feeling when you see him start to get into the red where are you emotional yeah are you like ah [ __ ] or are you like yeah are you like good I'm glad he's speaking up or are you like oh Rob come on just forget it I don't really need the cream yeah uh both because this woman was being an an [ __ ] she was really like aggressively being unhelpful so I got that he was upset but also my kids are right there and I just kind of would rather you know maybe I just drink the coffee black I don't think I needed to turn it to a whole thing but I do understand why he was upset but see that's but wherein lies the problem right we paid for the goddamn coffee paid for the food you're not and you're and she shouldn't have to drink like should you have to drink Black Coffee in real life is that um like a a a huge sacrifice you have to of course not who gives a [ __ ] really but what you paid the Goddamn money where's my [ __ ] cream but when does standing up for yourself when does it create more problems for yourself absolutely yeah when does it tip over into like oh I've upset my children and now it's like what do you think do you think Rob is out of line or do you think that that he like if the kids weren't there I would have done the exact same thing I just instantly turned into like Mama Bear and wanted him to stop so that they weren't like seeing their dad get to fight over cream because they weren't understanding that she was being an [ __ ] and she was the woman who wasn't giving this woman the water earlier I recognized her from the previous incident so I if they weren't there I would have done the exact same thing well so to be honest that's where it becomes a question though right because if if Rob's behavior is Justified then he's actually teaching his kids the right thing that's how I feel in that circumstance but if it's not if he shouldn't be acting that way then then then that's it's okay to stand up for yourself if depending on what you're you know my thing is that the kids didn't see all the things leading up to it they just saw Rob yelling at this foreign but then she revealed herself to speak English correct that's true now they didn't see that either again as as an adult I saw the whole thing and I understand the whole thing and I would have been on board I just I'm more willing to drop it when our kids are not seeing any of that they're just seeing their dad go to right well that's because Injustice well I was going to say that Caitlyn could have been doing a play-by-play with the kids as they're watching she could have been the you know the and you could have been saying like you know this no this is now had I had cream for my coffee and was comfortable sitting back and sipping while enjoying this scene play out I probably would have been able to do that but I was uncomfortable Glenn because my coffee was black and I was tired and my husband was fighting with a strange woman uh yeah but did you eventually get your cream you would have gotten the cream without the raised temper like if you just kind of kept insisting on just uh well well that's wherein lies the issue because probably like there's a version of the of this where I get it with I get the cream but what happened was it started with me wanting cream and then it transitioned to me wanting cream and Justice yeah yeah the the sweet cream of justice is the sweetest cream of all and yeah like doesn't that doesn't that cream taste so sweet yeah yeah it's so much better it is no justice is curdled milk and that really is that really is the takeaway in what we talked to our kids about afterwards okay so you just spoke to them about the cream of justice and you explained yeah maybe Rob Justice's sidekick should just be a woman that explains all of his behavior to any children that are around so they have the proper contacts it's just a constant state of processing with children Dad this is my dad's behaving this way that's sweet that's me I did I did give them a full a full recap afterwards so that they would understand because they were the little one was just like his mouth was open and his eyes were wide he was just like shocked and confused so I backed up to be fair by this point he should not be shocked and confused by my behavior I still like to hide it from them you're really really trying to get them used to it but Yep they're getting there well it's they see it can't hide you can't hide from your kids they see you they see they know they know they know I definitely know what's wrong and when Rob's around that's for sure he'll make sure that well we we also are gonna we're gonna do a little call-in show where we're gonna have people from France specifically France French people in English in English please oh yeah yeah yeah we will force them to speak English yeah uh and we're gonna get their take on it but what it I mean is your take on have you had bad or good experiences with the uh the and I'm speaking specifically of French French speaking people from France not French Canadians they're lovely they're they're lovely and we've established that Swiss French people are and I imagine that uh you know Belgian males are as well uh you know it's just the French French it's just the French French OG is what we're talking about it is born and bred French yeah have you've had and they are born in bread which is but they're born in a little baguette come sliding out with a cigarettes a piece of bread smoking a cigarette smoking a little baby green cheese you know what I will say when we walked out of that Lounge the um the women that said goodbye to us said goodbye to our kids and we're really sweet and told us to have a nice day so it did end on a on a nice course there are not the not those particular women different women different women yeah yeah of course that woman was awful Rob's right she was a terrible person she could have been you know what she was speaking French she could have been anything she just was an all-around bad person yeah just bad people are bad people no matter what um but that's Nationwide International that's International that is true [ __ ] are everywhere like she could be the greatest person and she's having the worst day that's the thing about stereotypes too though that once once they're like culturally established or in the Zeitgeist then you are looking for those you're looking for it yes that's why I wanted to point out those very sweet French women that said goodbye to her of course of course now if you'd been screaming about one in Cashew milk and electrolytes to add to the water then that would have been Los Angeles of course of course well uh sweetie thank you keep it together next time you don't you don't need to um you know fly around the world and Fair have Justice be served everywhere in front of our children alone with me fine come on you know the man you married this is uh yeah it's hardwired Caitlyn how are the Emmy parties did you have fun it was they were so fun yes and I will say I dragged Rob Kicking and Screaming I did he was very lovely to go with me and then we both had a really fantastic evening it wasn't a fun did you have fun I had a blast yeah it was great we had so much fun did it was was it were was anyone talking about me I didn't hear anybody mention you at all uh not Glenn specifically um but a lot of people talk about the show a lot of people people love the show people love the show can I also can I suggest that there we have another member of the of the family who is who is equally uh as interested in Justice in in situations Mary Elizabeth yeah she 100 she has a Justice uh gear which is a good counterbalance to me because uh I you know I have the Tom and Mary's gear of just like it's nice ruffle any cute piece keep the peace keep the peace don't make the piece just keep the existence if there's any yeah whatever Pizza is even if the piece is Injustice that's fine an existing piece but I don't like that it's not a good quality you know it's uh you don't like that in yourself yeah you wish there was a little bit more Rob Justice in you is what you're saying yeah I think there's a balance like everyone needs a little bit of it I think Glenn and I are similar we're I I can let a lot of things go and I'm also like really compassionate like and I'm always putting myself in somebody else's shoes and I'm like it's fine she clearly this or he clearly that but when someone has zero regard for how their behavior is affecting people around them I can't take that and like if I get caught in that middle of that I have to yep we establish it that that was my number one uh personality trait right yeah we did we made some kind of a list of like things and you guessed oh it was it was when we were we were like it was the dating game one where we were trying to figure out who knew the most about the other what made you the most angry because people being inconsiderate yeah yeah people not people not by the way about how their actions affect us I feel that stuff too but what happens is I get I bury it down inside it gets tucked inside and then look it could it can come out on screen and in character form sure and uh it's very useful tool but it doesn't come out in life yeah I got it on lockdown you'd like to write it for my character though I and I write it in your character the big emotional swings we're not we're very you know that's not a very that's why you like because you really love writing my character like I feel like that's my favorite one to do yeah but uh yeah I like to stuff that [ __ ] down inside deep and uh I feel it I'm vibrating now thinking about it well sweetie thank you for glorifying me and corroborating uh everything thank you for getting me cream I love you yeah yeah I'm not sure but that's the way I heard it and saw it that's the way he chooses to hear it and that's how it is love you all right we love you Caitlin we love you I love you guts bye I love you [ __ ] guts well have we done it we did it I think ever I think we I think the main goal here is to always have people walk away from listening to our podcast Having learned something Rob Justice and Caitlin context maybe that will be the name of this episode or the cream of Justice it always Rises to the top the sweet cream of justice that you're always talking about yeah it rises up man thank you
