Pasties at the Fed
You read that right! If you’re looking for a night of acrobatic tricks, live music, and pasties, then get yourself on over to Prescott’s very own “The Federal” aka “The Fed.” Join us this week as we regale you with our experience of being elders in the crowd, as well as what to expect from this night of burlesque fun.
Hello, hello, hello, hello peeps and welcome to the Randol and Dian bro show. No, not really. But anyway, we are your local friendly realtor couple here in Prescuit. She’s the Prescuit pickle lady. I am her sidekick or girkin or he is. And so we like to uh bring you guys, welcome you to Prescuit, take you around, find you a great house and show you what life is all about here. Yes. (00:26) So, something interesting we just discovered and we went to with former clients, now friends. Shout out to Cheryl and Mike. Thanks for being good sports and coming with us. It was an interesting night. Interesting night at the Fed. So, let’s start at the Fed. Yeah. So, the Fed is the Federal and uh it used to be a uh a post office. (00:50) Well, no, no. Upstairs was the courthouse. Courthouse. Well, I’ve never been above it was the courthouse. When we first moved here, it was a post office. So you there were people working there. Post office downstairs. This still operates as post office. Yes. Do they wear pasties at the post office? Well, I guess they could. It’s acceptable now. (01:08) It’s acceptable now. Okay. All right. You can express yourself. No body shame. I get it. Hey, everybody’s welcome. Hey, it’s okay. So, evidently it’s still a post office, but upstairs there is a event venue called the Federal. Yes. And it’s the old like there’s one room they call the jury room. (01:27) I assume at one point there were juries in there and there’s like a the stage area I think used to be a courtroom. Yes, that’s what I just said. It was like a that’s where the judge sat and preided. So that’s that’s on like the second or third floor. What’s what’s above that? Do you know? I don’t know. Nobody knows. (01:45) Nobody knows the Yeah. Nobody knows. But the fed is on I think it’s second floor. Third floor. I forget. Go. We walked up the stairs. It doesn’t matter. It’s on the second floor. On the second floor. It’s important. It’s a pretty pretty pretty venue. So, if you walk up the stairs and you get to the Fed, don’t keep climbing the stairs. Yeah. (02:02) Stop because you’ve hit the right place. So, it’s a cool venue. I had never been to it before. Uh, great for bands, kind of self-contained. Yeah. Uh, I’m sure you can rent the place out if you have your own event you want to do there. And just really kind of cool. It was a just a really cool space. (02:20) And what was going on there is um perhaps difficult to describe. Right. And I have heard about this, but I had never participated. And so our our friends Mike and Cheryl said, “Hey, have you heard there’s a burlesque show here in Prescuit?” I said, “You know, I’ve heard about it, but are you for real? Where? I’ve never I never knew that such a thing really happened. (02:40) I’d heard rumor.” She goes, “Oh, no. It’s a real show and it’s about once a year.” So I’m like, “You know what? For shits and giggles, we should go. Let’s go.” So we did. We went. So, we did. And I I mean, I should know better because I’m from New Orleans. I should totally have known the difference between burlesque and drag. I learned differently. Yeah. (02:59) Yeah. We were kind of thinking it was going to be a drag show. That’s what I thought. It was not. It The people wearing pasties were um actual young ladies. Real women. Real women. And not all of them were wearing pasties, but a fair number of them were. Yeah. Uh crazy show. (03:16) It was It was called The Forbidden Garden. Yeah. And it last the show lasted for so I should talk about the group first. So young people uh evidently there are some here in Prescuit and most of them performed in this burlesque show I think. Uh either that or they were in the audience. So it’s obviously a very young vibe but uh everyone was very friendly even though you know we we were older. (03:42) They were very accepting of very accepting of the old folks. Yeah. So you know thank you for that. Thank you for that pretending for making us feel welcome. Yeah, make us feel welcome. That’s always good. But it was a a fantastic show. It was completely created by themselves. They made a great It was almost two hours and they had a lot of acrobats. (04:01) Uh they had a lot of dancing. They had a lot of uh singing. They had musicians. So essentially it was a old like the old variety shows. So they had uh they had they had a rig set up where uh I don’t know what it’s called, but this woman sort of wraps herself in a net and then kind of climbs up and you guys know when you do yogurt yogurt yogurt. (04:24) When you do yogurt, you start to spiral. You do yoga. Yoga uh with all the silks and the the scarves and all. You know, kind of impressive. Yeah, very impressive. I just don’t know what they call it. And then they had a uh a couple that were on uh a trapeze and they they were quite wonderful, too. Very acrobatic. (04:45) Uh very interesting. They had uh guitar player. They had u some pole girls uh spinning around around very impressive. Tremendous upper arm strength. And then basically dancers. They had a number of dancers. That’s where the pasties came from. And uh dancing. Really hard for you. What? It was really hard for you and and Mike to watch the pasties. Yeah, I know. (05:11) I know. Pasties anger me. Not really. So anyway, that they uh all very talented people kind of strung together by a matraee. She kind of had an ongoing uh ongoing thing where she would do some readings and talk and kind of interact with the audience I guess while the next Zach was getting ready and then they would come on. (05:33) So basically a traditional it was kind of like a mini it was like a mini circus sole. Yeah. Yeah. And here in Prescuit you wouldn’t think there’d be such a thing. There was It was well done, professionally executed. Yeah, it was like a mini, like I said, cirus here in Prescuit. Definitely an avanguard uh absolutely feel. (05:56) Uh you know, they had projection, things were projected on the wall and and beautiful. Yeah, it was it was uh really interesting. Really different. It was a good show. Yeah. And so we had a great time. I think we were the oldest people there, but hey, that’s okay. You know, we’re hip and happening. We’ll we’ll check it out and let everybody know. (06:13) Yeah, we had a good time. So, if you were living here in Prescat, I highly recommend check out the Fed. Check out the different shows. There’s always really interesting, cool things coming. We’ve got a whole vibe here of very, very, you know, artsy, fartsy, very intelligent young people who are very creative putting out some really nice works. (06:34) Creative avanguard kind of thing. Yeah. You wouldn’t expect it in a little western town, but but we got They’re there and they they were great. They were. So anyway, hats off to them. Thank you for the show. We had a wonderful time. Thanks Mike and Cheryl for telling us about it and we had a good time. We had a great time. (06:50) And also they gave out free succulents. Remember that? Yeah. We got succulent. They had a chick with a instead of cocktails in her hoop, she had little baby succulents. Little baby succulents. There was a lady there just sort of randomly painting the whole time. I didn’t understand what that was, but okay. (07:08) Everyone was kind of going watching her work, you know. As I said, avant guard, you know, but we we enjoyed it. But we did it. So anyway, so if you’re coming here to Prescuit, keep your ears open and try some of this stuff. It’s actually pretty cool. Yeah, you’d be amazed at what’s here. Absolutely.

Fuming Over FIVR
Looking for the safest water heater on the market? Our favorite home inspector Matt recommends getting one with FIVR – find out why in this video!
Hello Hello peeps Diana Randall Bro here I am the pickle lady She is indeed Are your friendly husband and wife realtor team coming to you from Prescat Arizona. Um we wanted to talk to you about something interesting We learned about it a few years ago but have recently gotten re-educated and so we wanted to share it with you Something you may not know Um there are different types of hot water heaters that can be installed in a home Um one is your traditional open flame hot water heater Um that we all know and are used to from mom and dad’s house all the way to present homes There’s also something called a Fiverr. Yes FIVR FIVR And I lost my note but as I recall it stands for fully integrated variable resistance Resistance So backing up a little bit um I don’t know if any of you saw there was a a Mythbusters episode where they launched a hot water heater into uh it it they built a house around a hot water heater and got it to explode Yeah And it uh it launched like a rocket I mean it was unbelievable the power You’re talking about 50 gallons of water that are being overheated You’re talking about a very dangerous kind of thing Yes So hot water safety has always been important And this fiverr thing has uh is kind of the latest iteration of improvements of improvement Also you have your tankless hot water heater Yeah the tankless hot water heater There are three different types So it’s not very often that you see a fiverr Um but we kind of wanted to talk about it and explain why it is safer than most other units So the So one of the things about it that makes it well first of all it’s a lot more efficient Uh it doesn’t use as much uh energy and uh and all that but it’s the thing that we wanted to focus on is really safety issues right so uh it it does have a tank I mean it is a traditional water tank just like we’re used to seeing Just like you’re used to seeing So it’s not tankless but the uh combustion elements of it are fully contained Self-contained Self-contained So unlike the traditional hot water heater where you see that little flame blow and you see it sitting on a on a on a Yeah And the pilot Yeah And the pilot light and all of that sitting up above ground This is not Yeah this is not So most uh uh hot water heaters now are uh kept in the garage Uh they used to be kept in the roof and then when they leak they would destroy things So eventually they made their way into garages Most garage hot water heaters you’ll see are mounted a couple of feet off the ground Used to be 18 in 18 in That’s the That’s the minimum Say it’s 12 to 16 Yeah But it used to be 18 It had to be 18 in above the ground And the reason why Yeah. The reason why is you have fumes in a garage So you’ve got automobiles in there Uh there’s gasoline you know and any number of other things Well those those fumes from gasoline and the like they tend to hug the ground Yes So the idea was let’s let’s raise the height of the hot water heater and the combustion elements therein so that it does not ignite these fumes accidentally Correct Accidentally and and that’s why it’s Yeah And that’s why it’s off the ground Absolutely When it’s a traditional hot water heater Yeah It’s off the ground It should always be off the ground for that reason But now now we we ran into at least one hot water heater that’s mounted on the ground uh completely up the code Took us a while to to uh research it Uh when we first saw it it was I think a brand new technology or at least I had never even heard of it Yeah we had not Uh now we’re starting to see more in some of the newer homes Uh but uh the the the combustion unit is completely self-contained There’s no open flame So there is no way that it can ignite fumes In addition it has fume detection technology so that when it Yeah that’s pretty cool If it even even fumes that you can’t smell that might be flammable it will shut down the unit if that is the case Um so it it’s a first ran across this we have an uh an extraordinarily great and very thorough home inspector Matt Gormer Hats off to you Shout out to Matt National National Inspection National Inspection Yeah We just call him Matt We just call him Matt He’s great Yeah And so when we ran across this he’s like “Hm I want to investigate this further.” So he did And that’s when we learned all about the Fiverr unit He goes “Actually this is okay.” And it’s pretty cool Yeah It’s like Randall was saying it’s self-contained It has an automatic shut off if it does detect fumes Um pretty cool Yeah um it seems to be a little more advanced than your traditional hot water heater So he said it’s fine He checked city permits It was all okay It was permitted The city said okay So we felt really good about it But for some of you out there who were like “Why isn’t it off the ground why doesn’t it have this what it doesn’t have?” Yeah You’ll have plumbers even licensed plumbers who’ve been in the business for decades they’ll come in take one look at it and say “Oh that needs to be raised.”Uh so evidently they’re they’re not people don’t know that much about them. Maybe maybe in some areas of the country they’re more common right uh obviously they’re they’re going to be a lot more common in new construction than existing construction that’s like 20 years old So you won’t see it probably in a home that’s you know you know yeah 20 years old You’re not going to see it You’re not going to see it Now that being said if if you’re building a house you might want to might want to consider one a lot safer a lot more efficient and you don’t have this thing standing up you know that that 2 feet off the ground I think it’s pretty cool that even though it’s self-contained it can still sense bad fumes and shut the unit off Yeah that’s pretty cool That’s pretty amazing Now the only the only thing is if you uh if you have a hot water heater in your garage it’s 2 feet off the ground So if you if you don’t break in time and you hit you know you go forward too far you’re going to probably hit the two-foot uh uh platform Yeah Uh rather than the uh the hot water heater itself With a hot water heater on the ground you’re going to hit the hot water heater and that’s dangerous So if you do have a hot water heater that’s mounted on the ground you’re going to need a parking stop If you have a fiber also you will not be allowed a permit or a certificate of occupancy unless you have that bolster that ballard whatever to prevent a car you know car from going from going into it So it’s a safety thing Um you’re not going to get okay to move into the house until that’s in place That’s in place So no big deal but it’s there and it protects you It protects your car It protects you from running into it Um so yeah it’s pretty cool Yeah So uh just want to tell you when you’re looking at homes and there are three different types Your old traditional that’s off the ground Your more advanced Fiverr FIVR yeah that will be on the ground. That’s okay Don’t panic Don’t freak out It’s all good And then of course there’s your tankless Tankless Now we we do not have any experience with tankless personally Uh those are pretty common out there A lot of you probably do use tankless We’d be interested in hearing from you on what you think of your tankless hot water heater We’re thinking about getting one here just because somebody I know takes uh long hot baths and those baths tend to take all the hot water for a couple hours So we’ve been kind of talking about a tankless hot water heater but I know they’re a lot more expensive Yeah more expensive And uh I just I I just been interested in hearing people’s reaction to what they think want to hear the best Is the water piping hot or you know and that kind of thing Yeah Yeah So let us know Just wanted to kind of give you guys an education on the Fiverr Fiverr hot water heater Yeah Don’t panic if you’re going into a home that’s newer construction and you see that you think they did that wrong It’s not installed right It is Yes And I can guarantee you any city willnever give you a certificate ofoccupancy or pass a permit on a home that was not safe and did not allow a Fiverr unit New Orleans might I don’t know There might be some cities out there New Orleans maybe True But um if you get the inspector drunk he might give it to you I don’t know That’s But anyway most cities uh are not going to permit your home and allow you to even move in especially if you’re building the home Yeah Unless everything is checked off and confirmed with the city So if you see one on the ground don’t panic Don’t freak out Do some homework on it Uh contact Chad GPTShe’ll tell you all about it in a lovely. British accent Yes which is optional If you don’t like British accents you don’t have to have British It’s all good You can do whatever you want Yes All right my friends That is our little educational section about the Fiverr hot water heater Hope you guys are doing well and having a fabulous day And uh now you have another little tidbit to file away in that noggin All right take are Have a good day Bye bye

We had a low snow winter this year, but who knows what the future holds!

hello hello hello hello peeps diane and Randall Bro here coming to you live from beautiful Prescuit she’s the Prescuit pickle lady i’m her sidekick yes i thought you were gonna say you’re my son i was like wait what i just heard a and I was like wait wait wait what no I’m not not the son no no I don’t that would be miraculous right so anyway we are here uh enjoying this beautiful spring day and we’re here to talk about our crazy year without winter yes so we are now in spring uh so spring is officially over uh people are running out to uh to (00:42) buy plants and everything still a little early for that uh the rule is the rule you never plant anything until Mother’s Day right that’s right until after Mother’s Day even though the the temperature is perfect it’s beautiful um you know your blood’s warming up you’re feeling good don’t fall into that trap because we always have one more little cold snap or one little light snow even beginning of May but it may not happen because this year was an exceptionally dry snowfree winter yes very bizarre so I think there were (01:19) maybe four or five snows maybe four snow not even that much i don’t think we missed two of them we were out of town in I guess it was late January early February and we had a little snow we missed it completely by the time we got back it was all completely gone and then we went out of town again when was that i don’t remember but we we missed two snowfalls two snowfalls and then uh we got back and I want to say a week or two later we had we had we had one more little dust they said they just had three snows three you know reasonable (01:54) snows yeah um where the snow actually stuck little bit i think we had like an inch or two nothing major yeah gone within hours you know it was kind of pretty yeah yeah just enough to be beautiful and then of course by 2:00 it was all gone yeah highly unusual though for us to go that you know have a winter and only have two or three snows very strange usually we have one um every 3 weeks so it’s kind of strange yeah yeah very little precipitation very little precipitation i think we’re starting to catch up for lost time we get most of (02:28) our precipitation in uh July August when the monsoons start right uh but we’re starting to get it now the same thing happened last year the the rains came a bit early uh so I don’t know i guess people are stirring the pot and the weather is changing but it was it was odd yeah i myself love a nice chilly willy cold winter i love snow days it reminds me of being back home in the south when we would have hurricane days hurricane days yeah i like a good little snowfall where everybody has to stay home no traveling love that drink coffee (03:01) drink coffee but unfortunately really didn’t happen too much this year so uh we’re a little low on water but hopefully we’ll have a pretty healthy monsoon season we shall see so when you’re thinking about our town and you’re like “Oh they get a lot of snow in the winter.” Really not so really not so um this year exceptionally not so we we really did not have hardly Yeah hardly any snow so it was it was just chilly so I asked artificial intelligence what major city could I compare Prescuit to so people get an idea of what (03:36) winter’s are like and she because the voice is female she says Denver’s a good uh good comparison only because it’s dry now Denver gets a lot more snow than we say yeah not nearly that cold that girl’s wrong yeah we we I think we get about a foot of snow a year and they get I don’t know like six 60 inch like was that five feet way more yeah a lot more snow than AI chick was wrong but she said “Well it’s it’s a lot of sun it’s not overcast. (04:08) ” And that’s true denver’s nice and sunny during the winter so is Prescuit and it’s dry it’s not damp and cold uh usually not so and Denver is nice and dry um so uh not that harsh i don’t think our winters are as windy as Denver but there you go if you’re familiar with kind of what it’s like in Denver during the summer I mean during the winter uh that’s similar to Prescuit so if you were thinking I wonder how Prescuit is like during this during the winter well you should know this was uh a strange one yeah um sometimes we even have a first snowfall Thanksgiving maybe (04:40) one at Christmas none of that i think we were well into maybe towards the end of January end of January if I recall before we got any snow so um it’s not crazy here it’s not blizzards it’s not you know you’re not snowbound it’s just enough and this year was exceptionally yep uh nice if you’re not a fan of snow yep uh you would have made it you would have loved it it was great yeah we went through the trouble of leaving town uh we went down to Mexico we went over to Florida and um not not well we did miss the the first the little snows that were (05:17) here but uh yeah not a not a winter you really had to do a whole lot of escaping so uh we’re hoping we get our precipitation up and we get some good monsoons fill up our reservoirs and uh life will be good again it’s been a little dry so we’re looking forward to a little moisture but just wanted to tell you it was kind of a year without winter year without winter what is it in Game of Thrones what do they call it uh I don’t know you know that saying the winter’s coming well yeah we didn’t have it so winter did not come here (05:49) there you go winter’s coming not not impressed not so much yeah maybe next year yeah no zombies either no zombies well that’s another that’s another show yeah that’s another show no zombies i mean there are some older people but yeah they could pass but technically they’re not the undead so they’re not really zombies true all right anyway uh we hope to see you this spring and summer so that you’ll be moved here so you can maybe enjoy a year with winter yes coming up yes we have a little time to go with that but anyway (06:26) hope to see you then and uh come visit us soon we’d love to show you around and show you what our town is all about absolutely all right i hope to hear from you and you can check us out at Oh that’s our free information site uh pickle411.com whether you’re a buyer seller or somewhere in between there’ll be something there waiting for you that will amaze astound educate and entertain there you go there’s that fourth adjective i always look entertain well maybe and it’s It will only cost you 20 bucks no it won’t no it won’t it’s (06:59) absolutely free absolutely free all right friends hope to hear from you soon and hope you have a fantastic day bye bye

Speed Traps
We’ve all been there; you’re driving along at 30 mph and all of a sudden you’re getting pulled over for speeding in a 25 mph zone…a speed set for a neighborhood that hasn’t even been built yet! Join us this week to learn which towns have the most speed traps and how to avoid getting that ticket.
bonjour Hello Hello Meami This is Diana Randall Bro your friendly pickle team your friendly realtor husband and wife team here in Prescuit Arizona And we are here to talk to you about crazy things that uh some of the areas here that have speed traps So yeah Yeah If you’re visiting or if you live here now and you’re trying we’re going to help you out cuz we just got caught in one of them Yeah not happy about it Yeah You know there there are speed traps and there are speed traps You know sometimes speed trap is in a (00:35) place where it’s a valuable thing Yeah it can be a valuable thing It really depends on the speed and the trap So uh I drive like a paw paw My my wife is constantly saying “What a pawpaw.” I can vouch for this It just I drive a lot though I’m on the road driving quite a bit and uh usually once every five years or so I will get a speeding ticket and it’s always some uh bogus thing It’s bogus Now I am a little more daring I drive a little faster a lot faster I never get tickets Never get tickets But this one Mr Kosh (01:12) is here No it’s just cuz I drive more than you do I drive a lot more than Grandpa here Grandpa gets more tickets It’ll be you know like three One time it was 3:00 in the morning Yep And I was kind of lost and all the streets were saying no left turn no left turn And uh I took or or they were all oneway streets or something and I think I took a right on a on a red light or something You’re getting mired down in the Well I mean the point is that was bogus There was no one else on the street Cops there just giving everyone who passes by a (01:44) ticket trying to get his his uh quota That to me that’s a speed trap That’s so what we’re here to talk to you about is the speed traps here in Presc Now if you’re if you’re speeding and you’re being reckless the police give you a ticket you deserve it You deserve it And if I’m doing that I deserve it too I have no problem Absolutely These are the spots where technically it’s 25 miles an hour because one day in the future they will have homes here but there are no homes now and it feels like 45 is more appropriate That’s where they’ll take it (02:14) That’s where they gave So that would be on roster That roster Roger between um between 89 and Willow Creek Uh there are some areas there where there are a lot of homes and yeah you pretty much have to go 25 or lower When they say 25 they mean 25 They don’t mean 35 They don’t mean 40 And sometimes when you go it’s a little longer of a bit of a stretch and all of a sudden you don’t even realize that your speed has gone up Yeah And then bam that’s where they get you because they’re hiding And they’re hiding you hiding at the bottom of a (02:46) hill and and they’re hiding in a section where there are no homes for a big long stretch Yes And they were too lazy to make it you know 35 there and plus they would have no place for a speed trap So they sit there waiting for you and they give you bogus tickets So I got one there Yes we did Uh there’s one in what’s called the Yavapai connector and that is through tribe land and it’s the tribe police that will give you a ticket there They want you to go slow Everyone kind of knows they want you to go slow It’s not really a speed trap that if (03:20) they see you speeding they’ll come get you Uh is it ridiculously low yeah it’s ridiculously low And this is where they get you on that road And that’s between 89 and 69 It’s the connector Yeah Um they some sections will say 25 and then the next section a small section will say 35 and then it’s down to 25 Yeah And it is just nothing but desolate land I mean there’s truly nothing there so low Yeah Yeah It’s very easy to kind of pick up speed and zap They’ll get you So we’ve had a number of friends say stop driving so slow Just pick up (03:57) the speed No When I tell you not to do it don’t do it cuz you will get caught and you will get a good ticket But the speed trap of all speed traps Oh yes Is this is the town of Clarkdale Yep So he hasn’t gotten over it yet Yeah It’s really tick We’re working on it Now there are towns like that in every state There’s uh Elgen I think in Texas uh every state you know there’s some towns that’s the the um majority of their revenue comes from bogus uh traffic tickets Well Clarkdale is like that Clark if you go over the Mingus (04:34) Mountains through Jerome on your way to say Sedona When you get down on the other side that’s Clarkdale And they have it’s there’s not a lot out there Um there was a section we were going through It was a a speed It was a uh traffic circle And as soon as you get off the traffic circle it’s 25 miles an hour You go from 45 to 25 even though you haven’t hit any homes yet And you’re coming off of a hill So of course your speed is a little higher because you’re going down and you hit that traffic circle Boom And they’re there waiting (05:08) for you I as soon as I had exited the traffic circle he was he got me They just wait So it was just a complete trap happened to be two days before Christmas on my way to spend money on a bogus uh Santa train Don’t do that either Uh $500 for an an hour train ride was just kind of stupid But anyway now so Clarkdale did you get the idea that you ticked me off don’t go to Clarkdale They spend they a lot of their uh money comes from uh tourism which is wonderful uh but not you can’t have a tourist based economy and do a lot of speed traps The other (05:44) thing is instead of being able just to pay your ticket online and mail it in No you have to go have to actually go there to to give them your credit card in person Uh there’s no judge to say “Hey can we talk about this let’s talk it through.” No just a receptionist Let’s be friends Let’s let’s let’s let’s come to a consensus here Nope It’s simply give us your money and pay the fee Um you couldn’t do anything online and you couldn’t even mail it in You had to go drive all the way down there again and hope you wouldn’t get another ticket and (06:13) another speed trap So now when we go through Clock Dial it will always be 25 miles an hour So if you’re behind us stop blowing your horn flashing your lights been there done that and we don’t care to repeat the mistake Yeah So if you’re in any of those areas um be cautious be aware They’re not kidding around And we just want to save you from the hell that we just went through If you know of any other uh speed traps in the state uh particularly those around the Prescat area send them to us We’ll post them for you so uh you’ll know (06:47) about them in advance It’s important to know especially if you’re new to the area Yeah Ruin your whole day It will And it makes your you know rates go up and or and or you have to do defensive driving and everybody knows that ain’t fun No I’ve done that enough I’m not doing that Nope Nope Nope So anyway just kind of wanted to share that with you and um hope that we can help you avoid future tickets Absolutely You can thank us later You’re welcome All right Thank you for listening and if you have any questions if you’d like to reach out to (07:18) us get in touch You can reach us at pickle411.com That’s our free
