TREY: [00:00:31] Hi! Hello, Chelsey!

CHELSEY: [00:00:34] Ugh, I fall more in love with that theme song every time we listen to it.

TREY: [00:00:38] It really is fun.

CHELSEY: [00:00:39] It really is. We're the luckiest!

TREY: [00:00:41] Oh my gosh. Hello listeners. Welcome to Review That Review. We are the podcasts dedicated to reviewing...

CHELSEY: [00:00:47] ...reviews! We're just like Siskel and Ebert only instead of reviewing cinematic masterpieces, we rate and review those hilarious, scathing and sometimes suspicious online reviews.

TREY: [00:01:00] That's Chelsey Donn,

CHELSEY: [00:01:01] And that's Trey Gerrald.

TREY: [00:01:03] And together we are...

VOICEOVER: [00:01:05] The Review Queens.

CHELSEY: [00:01:09] My crown is bronze and polished and ready to go.

TREY: [00:01:13] It looks so gorgeous. Those, um, gorgeous gemstones, their blo... ow. Ow they're blinding me.

CHELSEY: [00:01:21] Oh my God.

TREY: [00:01:22] How's your week been, Chels?

CHELSEY: [00:01:24] My week has actually been great. I had my birthday, I celebrated my birthday. I got to see people in person and hug friends that I haven't seen in over a year. I got to actually hug my friends. It was so nice. And, I went to another friend's birthday and I met new people and I went to a Dodgers game.

So. It's like both the most bizarre thing to be seeing so many people and also such a blessing. so I feel great. How was your week? Trey?

TREY: [00:01:54] I had a good week, another great week, living life, breathing air. In real time, we've just launched last Wednesday. And, uh, so it's been a very exciting fun week, uh, with a lot of correspondences and, it's been a great, great week. I am happy to be alive.

CHELSEY: [00:02:13] Yes, we should all remember how lucky we are. And with that in mind

TREY: [00:02:18] Yes.

CHELSEY: [00:02:19] In leaning into gratitude and remembering how very lucky we are. I think it's time for us to.

VOICEOVER: [00:02:26] Lodge A Complaint.

TREY: [00:02:29] Well, I'm ready. I'll start.

CHELSEY: [00:02:31] Please get us, get us going.

TREY: [00:02:33] All right. Today, the complaint I'm going to be lodging is for something very obnoxious. It is "Cash Only" anything. I hate when you go to a restaurant, when you go anywhere, if it is not a garage sale, if they are cash only, that is so obnoxious to me. Now I understand you as the vendor have to pay a fee for credit cards.

CHELSEY: [00:03:02] True.

TREY: [00:03:02] Okay. It is 2021. It is, that is a cost of business who is "Cash Only" anymore? That, that is so obnoxious to me being told, oh, cash only. No, if you cannot pay the 2% fee for swiping the square, then I don't know something that is just whack. It's a wack job to not accept credit cards.

CHELSEY: [00:03:32] I get it. Now, the worst is when you get to the place, you didn't know that it was cash only. You didn't bring any cash now what? It's terrible.

TREY: [00:03:41] We went on a double date with, my brother and sister-in-law and we knew it was a "Cash Only" restaurant. And when she called to make the reservation and they were like, remember it's cash only. And every single page of the menu was cash only it said at the bottom. And they have an ATM inside $7 and 50 cent fee.

CHELSEY: [00:03:59] Stop it that's wrong.

TREY: [00:04:02] so then I'm thinking like, okay, so you paid for this ATM machine that you can make profit off of which. Great! Do your thing, but it's obnoxious to me. Like, I just think that it's very bizarre to like, be running a business and not be doing like even in Alabama, like my ex step-mom. She had a booth at you know, it was yeah, like a vendor fair where you could set up a booth and sell things. And those people had square machines to run credit cards. Like how are you a business in Manhattan? And what has also been really fabulous in this pandemic shutdown is a lot of places stopped even taking cash. Cause we thought that was dangerous and scary.

CHELSEY: [00:04:44] I know I was going to say that, like, I actually. I, I tend to carry around cash. I go to the farmer's market every week. I like that cash exchange. I know, call me. We are in, I like enjoy being like, where did you, where did these eggs come from? Tell me a little bit about this chicken. I want to know what they, where they've come from. Here's $20. Thanks for the eggs. I mean, and then they give me change, but there have been a lot of places where it's no cash now.

TREY: [00:05:10] To me. I,

CHELSEY: [00:05:10] You're about it.

TREY: [00:05:12] I just think like, I'm just not a cash person, that's it.
