Listen Now: The Sage Steele Show | Adam Carolla

Speaker 1 It'll be an interesting chapter, you know, for people to go back and look at in like historically. Yeah, historically.
And, you know, and I do think about that sometimes. Maybe

Speaker 1 it's self-serving or narcissistic or something. But, you know, we do that a lot.

Speaker 1 Like you go back and you think about the civil rights movement, you know, and you have all these politicians sort of trying to insert themselves.

Speaker 1 You know, like Joe Biden met with Nelson Mandel and was arrested at the airport in South Africa or something. Stuff he never did, right?

Speaker 1 Right. But we all wish, like, I wish there was a picture of me like holding hands with Martin Luther King, like walking across a bridge in Alabama, but there isn't.
But there's not.

Speaker 1 You know what I mean? And when it kind of came to a lot of COVID stuff and canceling stuff and that kind of stuff, I was just like, I want to be on record as saying, I didn't sign up for this.

Speaker 1 I don't condone it. And I will stand up against it, you know, and not stand up against, you know,

Speaker 1 diseases, airborne diseases or anything, but like the part where they're shutting the beaches. And, you know, like I went, they shut down a place about five miles from here called Tinhorn Flats.

Speaker 1 It's a restaurant, family business, been in the same family for 50 years. I went to high school.
with the guy who runs it now.

Speaker 1 And they said, you know, they shut down dining and they moved everyone out to the patio and everyone had to set up

Speaker 1 all the nuttiness, right?

Speaker 1 And then the word came down that they were shutting down the patio. So Gavin Newsom said, no more outdoor dining.
And Tinhorn Flats was one of the few places that went, you know what, enough's enough.

Speaker 1 We're not doing it. Really? And they stayed open and they got kind of vocal about it.

Speaker 1 And now there's an iron gate around the whole place and it's shut down and they're out of business and the family is out of business but when I heard they were shutting down outdoor dining and that Tinhorn Flats was defying that order I got my son and I said we're going to Tinhorn Flats to support I'm in Lacanada like I've never I've never even eaten at Tinhorn Flats it's not close to where I live but I'm like Boy, get in the car.

Speaker 1 We're going to go make a statement. And at some point when they're sorting this mess out, I will be on the side of people that went to Tinhorn Flats.
Yes.

Speaker 1 And you, son, will remember that your dad, even though it wasn't very popular, was on the side that went and supported the restaurant. Such huge lessons in that.

Speaker 1 So, no, it's not standing next to Martin Luther King, but you know what? It's our version right now in so many ways. Wait, before you answer, so I

Speaker 1 have, I'm always cold. Uh-huh.
And girls are always, women are always cold.
