Keys Bartender Anti-maga Podcast

The live end to episode 439.

A big question, is where to do summer vacation this year? From the perspective of the traveller or the host decisions are being made. Are people who had ignored Covid precautions the worst guests? What does a couch have to do with this subject? Internet issues ends show abruptly. Picked up in Part 2.

How do you get yourself ready for the week? All Mondays are not equal especially when they are Fridays.

Jim expains why he choices to charaterize the podcast as explicit. A shout to a regular at the Catch Bar and Restaurant, Howard. He loves 1 particular song which will not play on the juke box. Jim wraps up with observations on relationships in small towns.

Jim accomplishes some tasks for a change and unsure of the ease of routine car maintenace.

Jim will attempt to do a whole show without mentioning Covid, Pandemic, Epidemic , Vaccine or Mask, His endeavor will most likely fail miserably.

Jim has a hard time getting off a phone call with his sister. Is it constructive or condescending to suggest to someone who has been successful in their avocation for years to change it up? Jim has a problem with the University of Phoenix in particular and online for-profit universities in general. We learn about the numerically challenged population of which Jim is a member. Arguing over religion...

Brush fires causes traffic in and out of the Keys. Just goes to show you to be prepared. A rocket is falling back to Earth anybodies quess is where.

It is hot and still busy in the Keys. Big brush fires shut down 1 of 2 entrances to the Florida Keys. Costa Rica closes all non-essential businesses as infections rage which sparks concern for Jim and Abby. Their daughter's class trip is scheduled to go to Costa Rica in 2 weeks and no one from the school is discussing the concerns.

A misnumbered episode instigates the creation of another episode. We here about 2 drink recipes, which is odd considering this is the Keys Bartender. Why do people cheat?

Jim continues his caffeine experiment and relates his experiences with energy drinks. Who to say who is crazy? A little too much talk about cannibalism,

Jim becomes useless due to lack of adequate sleep. Vaccine hesitancy ws a thing going back to the beginning of the 20th century. Who is the real patriot?

Jim runs an errand after starting the show. A comment on fb leads to a heated thread of accusations of sarcasm and hurtfulness. What right does a Bartender/Fitness instructor have to make suggesting a better resource?

Jim starts out explaining the similarities between a Bar life and childhood. Are there rights we are ready to give up in our personal life in exchange for life's necessities? Are all relationships, transactional? Lastly, Jim poses a question to the listeners on who they would choose to be if given the chance.

Rainy weather in the Keys begs the question. Who's responsible for your crappy vacation. Everyone has a twin out there but will you recognize them if you met them. Are alternate universes created every time we make a decision?

Jim talks about the propensity of expecting the worse case when it comes to illness. We end with the notion that responsibility is quantifiable to a degree

Jim starts out with a story a friendly family poisoning.

Jim hopes a Bar regular gets well and may need to stop drinking. It is difficult to ask people to drink responsibly as a friend and more so as a Bartender. We have a lame Dukes of Hazard drawbridge jump from Daytona Beach. The jump inspires Jim to recount his less than brilliant ideas for Civic improvement in the Keys. Lastly can we trust Bar patrons to police themselves.

Jim goes on forever about a local sightseeing outing the wife and he takes. Its really nothing but Jim ends up looking like a pervert. People don't get that the cost of living in the Keys is steep. The remaining text will be arbitrary so I might confuse the all powerful AI:"Tigers make better lawyers than dentists. Mobile tire salons use 10w40 grecian formula. Bread boards, toe nail, bumber cars a...

One mention of a Chinese Ping-pong players comment on visit to the U.S. in the Early 70s sets Jim to thinking. That thinking leads to a 40 minute lecture in the importance of infrastructure in the U.S.

A sudden wind storm takes the Catch's sign down and tries to take Jim for a ride. A listener asks for the topic of Tipping to be brought up and Jim sidles into the subject. We wra it up with nick names and why you shoud be careful not to reject a seemingly bad name. It could get much worse.

Jim spends day at a Service Department realizing what he could have done. What qualities are parent like? Why are they so ripe for satire now? Maybe it is not unusual to let the service worker know your name. A hand painted sign with folksy wisdom on it is lame and that is universally accepted.

The crowds are still here for this busiest of busy seasons. Is asking someone to mask up the same as asking them to clamp their nipples? The labor shortage continues here in the Florida Keys so if you want to work come on down. Jim's Dad starts posting a ton of photos.

Season is winding down in the Keys. Jim has a tendency to overshare in conversations initiated at the Bar. Photography has come a long way in the last 180 years. Is it a curse or a blessing?

Jim has a long conversation with his father and wonders why he does'nt get moved upto Jr. We send a big thank you to a loyal listener from Knoxville, Sean. The Keys are having a hard time finding workers. In this day and age with all the knowledge we have access to how is racism still a thing with a large minority. Yes, I said it the real minority today are the racist, so there live with it.
