Welcome to the Belly to Belly to podcast. We are here for you to tell us all your problems. Oh, oh, oh. What do you think, Miles? You like that song? I do like that song. And I was just thinking about how they tell us our problem, their problems. But really, this is a way for us to get out all of our problems as well. Charlie, every caller brings a new proxy war for us

We just take out our deep seed it hurts angers anxieties into these Callers advice and this is just as much therapy for us that is is for them And that's the beauty of the bar folks. I now can empathize with Therapists I Can empathize with that. Do you think that's what therapists are doing? I don't know. You'd think that after a good therapy session a therapist would feel better too, but we don't know. We would never know. Isn't it like notorious that like therapists are like actually pretty depressed or no? Dentists. Dent and lawyers, I think. Yeah. Dentists are always looking down on my.

It's a funny joke. I mumbled it because it's a that's a funny thing about the dentist is like, and there's like, yeah, I know. Tell me about it. Charlie. Hi. Your guy is on tour on the road again on the road again. Just can't wait to get on the road again. And if you guys want more of that,

I can go to Charlie Barron's com and check out his dive bar dinner. New album out, ladies and gentlemen. Well, I'll just say check out your tour. Oh, yeah. Got a comedy tour. But being on the road a lot, Charlie, I always wonder how you pass the time. You're on the road more than I am. And I want to say that if you're passing the time by scrolling on your phone, I don't like that. No, let's let's throw that out the window.

Yeah. Throw the phone out the window. Quite's let's throw that out the window. Yeah, throw the phone out the window. Quite literally. Throw that phone out the window. You know, I need it. Throw the alien out the window. Besides scrolling on your phone, Charlie. Yeah. What do you like to do on road trips to pass the time? I'm so glad you asked.

First of all, I like to appreciate the beautiful scenery and check out the billboards. You know, uh, there's so many beautiful, the nice, beautiful, natural scenery, the billboards. Yep. I mean, of course we got our classics like the Nicolay law ones. Yes.

That's a nice little plug for Nicolay, but really it goes deeper than that. Cheese, free cheese and fudge. Uh, the Val praise over sect to me clinic over there in Indiana. Um, varicose veins, varicose veins. Those are great billboards. The lion's den, the adult toy stores, excite wall drug. Jesus is real. Hell is real. What's his name? Guy with the hands guy with the realtor realtor around the Minneapolis area. Oh, I know the Chris Lindahl. Nice cuticles on that fellow.

You know, there's just so many beautiful billboards. I like to bring my but nox and get up close and check out the details on them, especially the lions den ones. Yeah You get those knocks out you can see some You know, yeah, yeah for asking me how I like to pass oh, I'm sorry, you know what that that is a thing miles I feel like you give me a lot of prompts and I don't care enough for your answers I'm too me me me focused. Excuse me. I blame it on the current generation miles. What is it that you now something that I didn't know I was going to like to pass the time of the road trip that I ended up

loving and Jared could attest to this was car bingo car bingo. We took a trip through Iowa. It was me, Jared, Jake and Tyler. Yeah. And we played car bingo and you're wondering what car bingo is exactly what you think. It's a bingo card that you have in the car and you mark stuff off of it. Once you see it in the real world. Okay. And Tyler's grandma had this car bingo set and he brought it along. And of course me being snobby, like we're going to play this car bingo game. What do we, you know, we're, we're not that lame, you know? And then I got that bingo card in my head in my hand and it was on. And I tell you what ladders, water towers, all sorts of stuff. And then it got to the point we were playing blackout bingo.

Yeah, got to the point where Tyler and I were pinned against each other and we each had one left and it was a fire truck. Really? Now I won't. I'll tell you this. It's harder to see a fire truck in the wild than you think, especially on the freeway, because a lot of them stick to the local municipality. And so the game became considering the only one we each had left was a fire

truck. Who spotted a fire truck first cut throat? And you wouldn't believe it. We came across a decommissioned fire truck. It wasn't an ambulance. Yeah. It was an ambulance sitting outside of a fire station that was decommissioned and it became like a, like a lawn ornament that they like painted and all this other stuff. And I tell you what,

we had to then install a rule that if you called for a fire truck and it wasn't, then you lost as well after. From the distance, it looked like a firetruck. Honestly, that's kind of like a horse, you know, if you get a doinker off there and you do where you can put it in tip ins, tip it. Yeah, yeah. What do they call that? With its I like that. I like that rule. I think it gets you paying attention to the road, seeing the road as a game.

And then from there, I would think you could. When you said water tower, I was actually doing this the other day. I'm driving, looking at a water tower, thinking about water tower. Do you know how water tower works? Yeah. Tell me. But the water in it and then if everything flows down. Yeah. How do you get the water in it? You pump it you pump it up get a pump Yeah, all right now why?

Why do we do that? Yeah, because it's probably Uh takes less energy To pump it one time into the water tower than it does to constantly be pumping to people's houses Okay, so a steady little drip so one time you pump up and where do you get that water from? Probably a river. Okay. Why are we putting it in a water towel? For the gravity Yeah, so just for gravity. We're putting it up there for that's one of the reasons. Yes. What's the other reason sanitary reasons? Okay. Well why put it in a big tower? for sanitary reasons? Okay. Well, why put it in a big tower? for sanitary reasons

Because putting it in like a pool would be unsanitary it's an enclosed environment Why not beg make a bigger top? There's a lot of real estate left on the table there. Oh Populations are growing. Okay, so you wanna put cities on top of water towers. No, no, no, I'm saying get a bigger tower, a bigger, I mean, there's skinny stuff going up to the top of the water situation. I would think why not make that water thing

exponentially big, at least twice the size. And furthermore, the biggest question I had, we passed a water tower painted black Why would you paint a water tower black? Is it a heated water tower? Is that for that where the city gets its hot water? Is it trying to take in the energy from the Sun? Why would you paint a fucking or a frickin water tower black? Have you ever thought about that? Is that the local town school colors? who paint a fricking water tower black. Have you ever thought about that? Is that the local town school colors? No, no, no, this is, where was this?

I was just there, gosh darn it, I can't recall. Somewhere in Wisconsin, oh, close to Wisconsin Rapids, in fact, passed it close to Wisconsin Rapids, in fact, past that their black water tower couldn't figure out why most water towers. You see, they got the name of the city proudly displayed. All Matt Black was someone murdered out there water tower. Well, maybe it's trying to keep the low profile at night. Well, that's not very safe for low flying planes, is it?

It's true. Your point is? My point is I like having these conversations when you drive and having a rule that you can't bring up your phone to Google the friggin answer because I don't care what Google has nothing's better than sitting and arguing about something. It could easily be Google that nothing's better than getting in arguing about something. It could easily be Googled. I love nothing's better than getting enough friggin fistfight over it. We don't get enough fistfights as a society. You know, I never thought that would come on a Charlie Barron's mouth.

Well, I just mean, you settle it the way you should and then it doesn't linger. Yeah. I don't remember who said this, but after Covid, when all the fights would break out at stadiums, someone was like, people forget you can get punched in the mouth. Yeah. You know, I think we need to remind people that once in a while forget they got constant. You're not always protected by a screen. Correct. Yeah. And that's really the lesson you learn if you're paying attention on the road is you could get punched. You could now do not punch the driver. All right. There's only a backseat thing like your brother's back there.

His ass out. But don't don't knock him out. Well, if it's your brother, it's OK, but don't knock out random people. You can get sued for that. Don't do that on a bus. Yeah, I know it in your car, in your car. You got to know the person in order to knock him out and you got to also Yeah, you know that don't violence is not the answer on second thought. I don't want to get sued personally We got a lawyer

Yeah, we do Nick. Oh, hey, that being said Charlie. Should we take some colors do it miles? Let's do it Welcome to the bellyied Up Podcast. Who we talking to? Charlie, Miles, is that you guys? It's us, baby. Oh yeah. My name's Michael, pleasure talking to you. Michael, the pleasure is all ours, my guy. Pleasure is all ours.

Bellion up to this part. Oh, go ahead, cut you off. I was going to say it's funny. You just caught me in the middle. I'm throwing some ribs on the smoker. Ooh, there you go. How long you smoking them for? Okay, so normally I go the 321 method, you know, the three hours and then two hours rest and then one hour tax. But I'm making

these for like a little church get together in the night and I don't, I'm running out of time. So I'm going to do them party style. Yeah. That would be the problem with smoking something is you need time on your hands. So yeah. And didn't, didn't calculate time today. Well, I'd say you live and you learn, but sometimes you just live. And I feel like you're a guy who just lives. No offense. Yeah. I should take any by it, but belly up to the bar.

Tell us what's on your mind, Michael. So I was calling because I wanted to know, I coach football and wrestling and like freshmen in high school. And I want to know in your opinion, what's the necessities of Midwest coach, you know, must have. Okay. All right. Well now you're speaking my language. I was once a Midwest kid who played football. I didn't do wrestling, but miles. He's being humble. He wasn't just a Midwest kid. He was a Midwest athlete. Thank you, Charlie. This guy was a quarterback. He had long flowing hair. He looks like an Adonis out there. Well, yeah. Adonis. I didn't have long hair back

then, but oh, not in the picture I saw on the Internet. I was in college anyways. Sorry. Um, I think that every Midwest coach needs to have the phrase go take a lap in their repertoire. Take a lap. Now, if I was going to tell you how to actually coach, I would say that's probably an outdated way of doing things, but we didn't call in for updated new generation

coaching techniques. We called in for some Midwest coaching techniques. And what you got to do there is it isn't about skill in football in the Midwest. It is about heart and grit and grinding it out. And how do you do that? You run them to death. You make sure they're the most conditioned team. You make sure that they have been there, had their faces beaten into the ground in practice. So when it comes to the game, they beat the other teams facing the ground. They are well trained on that.

Now, Miles, I do have a question because you don't think taking a lap is a actual good way to coach? No, I'm just saying that the new updated way they don't teach that. Why not? Because they say that learning skills is more important than taking a lap. Well, Miles, I'll let you know that before every practice for our freshman football team, we start with two laps. Two laps. Are they timed or are they just like, you guys just go warm up with a couple of laps?

In the beginning, we're pretty tough on them. You know, like it's like, it's a run, you know, they're young, they don't need to stretch, but then they will stretch after. But we're putting our art on them in the first couple months and then we ease off them a bit on the last. I think you just took the Midwest advice I had right out of my mouth. Never have them stretch.

Stretching is overrated. Well, pulling muscles is for pansies. Tell me this Charlie, does a lion stretch before they go kill a gazelle? Hell no, that lion's just going from zero to 90, just like that. He's not sitting there, wait I gotta get the quads going. No I will say, a lion is walking around all day,

naturally, haven't you ever seen lions just do, you know, they yawn, they're stretching all day long. Honestly. You're kind of putting a fucking hole in my argument. Well, the more I thought about Animal Planet, the more I figured you're wrong. And so. You know, my girlfriend's golden retriever.

He does it every time he goes outside, but he doesn't kill anything. Yeah, he's just out there retrieving balls. He's not a golden killer, he's a golden retriever. Soft mouth. You have to kill it, then he retrieves it. I hate to break it to ya. Soft mouthed boy.

The stretching might be useless. Yeah. Oh, 100% it's useless. They should be stretching all the time. And you also wanna remind them that they don't have a shot. Just keep reminding them of that throughout practice. Like, you don't have a shot at this if you keep this up right now. Always consequences for them not working hard enough.

And it's funny. I'm the young guy in fast. So I'm in charge of this thing called opportunity. It's like the after practice punishment. So I just dish it out. You know, I like that. What are you some of your after practice punishments? Well, I mean, it depends on, you know, the kid.

If the kid just was late by a minute and, you know, 30, 30 to 40 pushups. But if the kid, you know, um, get practice and walked over to target, then, uh, you know, it's going to be like a wheelbarrow down the field or, you know, bear crawl to the locker room kind of thing, you know? Yeah. Yeah. Cleaning out your car. Maybe you want to turn these opportunities into opportunities. Checkbook. You know, that's how we need to start doing this. You stop calling them opportunities. You start calling them chores. Yeah, that's it. You bring them over to your house Saturday afternoon. I think another good way to coach in the Midwest is don't give them any water

and tell them that water is for the week. Yep. And then when they water isn't necessary, water is not necessary. Tell them that when they pass out, need to go to the hospital, put the liability on the school. That's how you do it. What are they going to do in the fourth quarter? Third and seven, they're going to stop the game and go, Hey, I need some water. Take a timeout for water. Yeah. Should I dry before the game? If you can't drink water on the field, you shouldn't be able to drink water in practice. And if they're drinking Gatorade or anything, be like, tell them that stuff don't work.

Tell them, what are you doing? You know, this is this. Yeah. Give them jars of old pickles. Yeah. Yeah. Pickled juice will do a hell of a lot more than a Gatorade Gatorade They design Gatorade after pickle juice in fact, and we got bartenders over here giving us a thumbs up agree them with that So if the bar have you ever watched the movie junction boys? Oh, she got a shooter of pickle juice right up there Nothing can cure a hangover like pickle juice

So if these kids are out there saying, oh no, we gotta do the Gatorade or Jake Paul's crap Prime. No, you can't, that stuff's garbage. You gotta ban Prime at practices. Prime is a joke, they're like, oh, Jake Paul does it. Jake Paul's a jerk off. You know, you gotta go for the pickle juice. All right, and also I don't know Jake Paul.

He could not be a jerk off. Seems like one could not be, but anyways, pickle juice. These damn kids collect those bottles. They collect the prime balls. Good Lord. Maybe I'm just jealous that he comes up with such a stupid business concept and it works. That could be it. Speaking of what I was saying Charlie is have you ever seen the movie Junction Boys Jun? No, you gotta watch it. Then just take everything that they did and make it law. Really take them out to the desert. Don't give them any water practice for hours on end. Um, basically just make it a living hell so that when game comes around, they're like, wow, this is way more fun than practice. Well, I have to see junction boys. Um, basically just make it a living hell so that when game comes around, they're like,

wow, this is way more fun than practice. Well, I have to see junction boys. Um, I, what I want to add on one thing to that, be the coach. Like when they're about to do the lap, be like buckets on, you know, don't call helmets, helmets, call them buckets, buckets on, take a lab. And if any kid dares you know, dares sit on their helmet, you got to rip them a new one and make them take a lap. Oh, that is sacrilegious. You know what the worst thing is with these helmets nowadays is all these kids, they always want that. They don't want the bucket.

They want the speed flex or they want the one that has, you know, the straps instead of the buckles. Oh, no. The stroke, like the two straps and not just the single strap. They want like the tightening straps now. Like a zip tie. Yeah. What's wrong with that?

You know, what's wrong with it too much on it? Well, they think that it's they if they don't have that helmet then they get all upset Yeah helmets not gonna do not well, it's hey you got upset about your helmet. Take a fucking lap Yeah, yeah buck it on take a lap. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, don't let them do anything unless they're buckets on Yeah, make him do laps. Just start calling them Jack and Jill lap shot of pickle juice lap shot of pickle juice. There you go. Basically you just say to do everything in your power to make them do activity that isn't actual practice that is going to make them hard. That is going to make them gritty. And that's what you're looking for. You listen to any post game speech of a coach. They didn't go, they don't ever go, wow, we just practice way better and we learn skills better than the other team. They say we had more heart

and that's all you got to know in high school football. Yeah, that's it. Are you guys fans of Dan Campbell? Yeah, Charlie might not be. I'm. I'm I'm a I'm a Detroit or over here. So that's my guy. You know, Dan Campbell is the Lions head coach. Yeah, I know his motto is grit. Don't think I don't know who the frick Dan. Sorry, I just Campbell's explained you right there. Dan Campbell ruined the Packers playoff opportunities.

I've beat us twice. Not last year, the year before. Well, it sounds like I'm still not over that. You got the three diners on the ropes though. Well, you know what? Sounds to me like the Packers maybe need to put their bucket on and take another lap

and take a page out of Campbell's book. We got a Super Bowl year coming. By the way, if anyone's looking for gambling advice, bet on the Packers to win the Super Bowl this year, all right? OK. Well, that's new advice. That brings us a perfect segue to my second question. Yeah.

I just turned 21, so I'll place that bet. But what's the ideal 21st Midwest birthday? Get every kid on that football team to run you over some pickle juice for the morning after your birthday because you're gonna need it. I don't know where you're going with that. I'm saying God, it ended up where it did.

What'd you think, Miles? I thought you were gonna tell him to drink with a bunch of teenagers. Oh, I'm not an idiot. I just said, didn't know. No, they're just helping. This is a callback to the pickle juice. It wasn't the strongest idea.

But so wait, you want to know what to do for your 21st or where to go? Yeah, you know, my buddy's coming back from school. What's what's the ideal 21st Midwest birthday? You know, I'll probably, you know, probably in a week or two. Wow. I think a good 21st birthday is, is having a good mix of your buddies. And if you have brothers and or family that are dudes, if you're a dune mixing those two camps together, always breeds a good time because you have your family who knows you the best and your friends that know you probably in a different way. And then when those two get together,

it's kind of like a bachelor party in that sense. They start talking shit about you. That's what you're looking for. If everyone else is talking shit about you on your 21st birthday, you did a good job. That's true. That is true. Yeah, you get it locked and loaded and then, uh, yeah, your brother's like, God, he really can't hold his liquor. And then your buddy goes, yeah, you should have seen him, you know, freshman year of

college when he did this. And then they laugh at you, give you another shot. And that's a good 21st birthday. Get, get, get a little, uh, roasted. So what you want to do, get roast. I would say, get yourself a nice meal before. Well, let's not even pretend like that's gonna happen. You're gonna be, take it easy. Pace yourself and keep up with the pickle juice. That's my advice to you personally. But yeah, bring the fellas.

Have you had an alcoholic drink before? No, Charlie, never. Oh, okay. Good man. OK, good man. Yeah. I can sense some sarcasm there. I can smell it. Some people don't. Well, you get out there, get a hammer with your friends. I got I got like describing how to do the deed. Yeah. If you're like, how do I have a kid?

Well, you'll get in there. You figure it out. Yeah, that's a really good point. Yeah. I don't. I could tell you now. If I was going to teach you how to do the deed, it would go like just all of a sudden. Now you go into this. Just tell us how you conceived your soon to be baby. So you're going to want to start your try for play.

That's a 5050 shot on whether or not that's's gonna work. She's got a headache, you know Come on the shower nips out. Yeah, you're looking good from your chest pubes down to your ball throw. Yeah, you know ball froze My one final football question for you. You say that you're a freshman coach. What kind of offense are you running? Fred you know we used to be actually it's funny you say that. The school that I coach at, I used to go there. We were known for years for the tight P, you know, shove it down your throat, everything to play.

And I feel that six or seven years, like right when I started to play there, completely changed. Now we're all spread. We've got speed, you know, different, different, uh, different game nowadays. Huge mistake. How's that going for you? It's no, uh, it's, it's getting progressively better. It was wrong in the beginning. Yeah. What was your, what was your record last year? Tell the truth. My team or the varsity, your team, we were 11 and one. We lost our second game to Toledo central Catholic Toledo play of the game. How big is Toledo? Well, Toledo,

if you think about the best football cities in the Midwest, they got some powerhouses. Yeah. How big is Toledo? Would you say, Speaker 3rd-Garrett I would say it's about three Milwaukee's really? Well, how big is Milwaukee? Oh wait, I'm sorry. It's about a third of Milwaukee's about three Toledos. You know, we, we can't even get our recurring bits over here. You can't a hundred some episodes and then screw the pooch. You gotta go back to wing tea. You would have won that final game if you'd have been wing tea.

Jam it down their throat. I mean, it's just now everyone does the sprints. There's no surprise in that, you know. You know, miles, I agree with you, but it's tough for me because I'm the wide receiver coach. Oh, so teach him out of block. He's dealing with split ends over here. Oh yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah It's about back to going back to 21st. I see you guys always got that tippy cow on the bar with you. Where can I find that? Is it in Michigan? I think so. I think to find it at liquor stores, go to a liquor store. You ask them for that

tippy cow. It'll you'll you'll see where where it's at. Yeah, you should be able to. You can also, I think, get it all flavor. What do you guys like about it? I like mixing the chocolate and vanilla together, Charlie. That's my favorite. Yeah, you know. It'll give you a it'll I like the fact that uses Wisconsin milk. All right. So, you know, it's nice and

local to the Wisconsin. It's also a nice conversation facilitator, isn't it? Yeah. Yeah. It's a good one to start off the, the evening with on the good old 21st. So yeah, I think I look around for it. It should be a liquor store. If it's not, not telling your story, you want to get it tomorrow. Yeah. And if they don't, if they don't have it, they're going to order it for me. It's your birthday. The big one, the big two, one approach with the typical like you are with your players. Just, Hey, you don't want to run. Well, too bad. You are

taking a lap. Yeah. You don't have typical too bad. You're ordering it. It'll be like, all right, can taking a lap. Yeah. You don't have tippy cow too bad. You're ordering it. They'll be like, all right, can I see your ID? You're taking a lap. Yup. Yup. I like it. Well, man, thanks for calling in.

This was good. Anytime I can open up the yearbook, talk a little football, it's always good. Yeah. Thank you guys. And I was going to tell you, Charlie, your last video with the dad, you know, at six in the morning. Yeah. Let me just say that was one of the best ones you've ever put out. Oh, I would like to say that I did that idea first. Did you years ago? So you got to go check out boomers every morning on my page and you'll see where

he goes every morning. That's kind of fun that we did the exact same video. Great minds think alike. I'd love to say that I remembered you did that video. You know, you don't know where I collection. Yeah, I do. Well, that's how that's how I knew it wasn't. It wasn't you. You did it years ago, dude.

You can't remember all the videos I've done. I don't remember all the videos I've done. Neither do I. We're doing them. We're just going to start redoing each other's videos. That's what we're gonna do. We're running out of ideas. But thank you very much.

And then we're gonna all coach football together. Yeah, exactly. We'll figure out a good idea. Exactly, well I appreciate you calling in here. Yep, you guys have a good day. All right, we see you soon now. That was the worst as a player. They just would run you to death.

That's all I remember about football. Bucket's on my cat. I just stopped her. It hurts my ears. Yeah, it's my forehead. It hurts your for. Yeah, you just get and you you get the zip line of the. Now all the helmets are super comfy. But back in the day, it was like literally like putting on a rock.

Yeah. Yeah, yeah. Back in my day. Back in my, we are now the back in my day guys. Look at that. Well, should we take another one? Let's do it, Miles. Hello, welcome to the Bellied Up Podcast.

Who we got on the old horn today? My name is Jaren. I'm from New Berlin. Oh wait did you say Jaren? Yeah. Hey Jaren from New Berlin. I like it. I like it. I went to Orchard Lane. You went to Orchard Lane? Yeah. No, yeah, no, no kidding. Oh, yeah. You met the muffin man, the one who lives on Orchard Lane. Yeah, he's a nice guy. Do you know the muffin man, Jaren? The muffin man, the muffin man. No, I do. You know the muffin man. Where does he live? Orchard Lane. He lives on Orchard Laneard lane Jerem what the hell is going on man belly up to this bar. What's on your mind? No, so I used to go out with this girl. She's from just outside of Chicago

So, you know already kind of a yeah, she could have been a red flag already, but yeah should have up in the summer, but then Now then we, uh, we didn't get back together, but no, she, um, she started talking to me again and I just, what do I do? Okay. So you were, you were going out with a gal. Sounds like you broke it off or someone broke it off. Spent some time apart and then she hit you up and you're a little emotionally confused because you thought that that door was closed. It might be back open again. some time apart and then she hit you up and you're a little emotionally confused because you thought that that door was closed

and might be back open again. Miles, I'm gonna ask, I think I need a little bit more information. Here's what I need, Jaren, I need to know why you guys broke up. Okay, well, I'd say the main reason we broke up is because, well, I'm in college, I'm in my freshman year right now,

she's in her sophomore year. And so we lived already about like an hour, 20 minutes apart. Yeah. But our colleges are about six hours apart. So that was going to be a problem. Right. Cause you guys were bringing sand to the seashore. Maybe. Did you break up because you're both in college, you're too far apart and there are many options in college and you guys are young and you just said, add the distance is too much.

Yeah, pretty much. And was that more her idea or your idea? It was definitely more her idea. I just kind of went along with it. Okay. Here's another question for you. Are you guys after the semester is done for the summer, are you guys both kind of going back to the same area? Uh, well, no, I'm going back to my house. She's going back to her house. So we're loving. So we'll be so far on down another day. So this is just this.

This is just a summer booty call. Yeah, that's what this is. She's putting you on the summer roster. My guy, she's you know, I don't know. She, Oh, how did she slide? Did she slide in the DMS or did she text you? Well, she, she blocked me on like everything. And then she, she, she, she started following me again on Instagram and then messaged me on Instagram. Yeah. Wow. Okay. All right. I got a plan, Charlie. So you need to, you need to, uh, this could be a little devious,

but it sounds like she's just trying to play with your heart. You know, she's going to get a little bored this summer. She needs a little, uh, fun time to be had if she's bored, right? Charlie, would you agree? You're the booty call. Yep. And so here's what you're going to do. You're gonna, uh, you ever heard of the Trojan horse? I have heard of not the Trojan condoms. Although, although with this girl, you should use a Trojan condom as well as the Trojan horse. Otherwise you're going to be getting some. So what you're going to do is go, Oh baby, I'm so glad to hear from you. Yeah. Let's get back together. When you get back to town, you make these big plans.

If she's got to drive an hour out of her way, even better. Then what you're going to do is two options. You can either go stir on the first run or you hang out with her a few times. You heard a neaf knee high by the 4th of July. When it's the 4th of July, you need to send that old Philly walk in and break up with her in the middle of the summer. Then she's going to be thinking about you all next year. Hang on, just texting Ann, he said Philly. Okay, just had to let her know. She said to let her know when you said Philly.

What? She just said. Okay. Yeah. Philly broad, all that, yep. Yeah, some Philly break your heart? Yeah. What a great line. Dumb and dumber reference.

Anyways, I feel like real quick, I just need you to back up. Miles, I like your advice. A little hard to get. Okay. Say no. You say no on the offset. That just makes them want you more. You know, Well, no, I'm saying don't be hard to get to begin with and then decide after the fact when they think they got you hook line and sink sinker. Uh huh. You slip the hook and they pull up a full of seaweeds is what I mean. So you see what he's doing here. He miles is going for the northern pike approach. All right. Now, when you're fishing northern pike in the big hole in Lake Winnebago in the in the fall,

what you do is you get this. My grandpa Bob always did. Catch yourself a perch. Put a big bobber on. bago in the fall. What you do is you get, this is what my grandpa Bob always did, catch yourself a perch, put a big bobber on, put a big hook on, put the perch on the bobber. Now that northern pike is gonna take it. When you see that bobber run the first time, do not shut the fricking hook because that northern's just playing with it.

You gotta wait for the northern to turn the perch, put it in their mouth, you got the hook. All right, so she's gonna try and set the hook after the first run and then it ain't gonna go but if she waits you know that you're gonna keep playing with your perch and we've seen it many times before seen it a ton of times yeah that's how you get pickled northern in your in your salad now here's another question for you. Do you love her? Of course, she doesn't.

He does mean I'm getting I'm getting jeers here at the bar. Lots of booing. Yeah, they don't. They're saying no go on the love deal lover. Do you love her? I didn't think I'd be put on the spot like this. Holy hell boy. I wouldn't necessarily say that. I mean like I had, I don't know. I had, yes, I have like some reserved feelings for her, but I wouldn't necessarily say go out of the way and say, I love her. So you don't love her. Now are not quite know when she messages you.

Are you thinking with your, which head are you thinking with? Well, we already know the answer to that, but that's a different, if he'd thinking with the top head, then he's maybe got a whole different ball game. Charlie. Oh, that's true. That's true. Which had you thinking with Jen? Well, I'm definitely, I definitely said definitely I definitely think more with my top head.

I mean, OK, you got a good head on your shoulder. I don't we like that. Yeah, I got a good head on your pelvis as well. Yeah. How's that one? Then, you know, tell us when to stop. Tell us when to stop tell me when to stop and stop when to stop Yeah, you are perfectly fine. No right here Oh under control. Oh, that's under control good for you. Hey, yeah, that's humble guy Kanda what? Hey, yeah, that's a humble guy back in the condo wide

Why did she block you my guy did you say something when she broke up that made her want to block you You don't just get blocked typically she broke it off and you were just hungry and you're like, why are we breaking up? Why are we breaking up? You won't let her go. You see This isn't the first time that someone's like me after a breakup, nor was it the last time that someone like me after a breakup. So is that just what the kids are doing or something you're doing, Jaren? Let's get to the bottom of it. I I don't know, man. I must have like some sort of superpower that like that makes people just block me after they break up.

You know, usually they happen. Usually they call that superpower being a dick. Yeah. Sharon, are you being what did you do to this gal after she said she wanted to go play the field in college? Huh? I said, OK. And then I guess a couple of days later, I asked her, she had my favorite sweatshirt. So I asked her for that bag. And then I got a little impatient because

she wasn't sending it and then she sent it and then I didn't really talk to her and then she blocked me. So that's how it went. All right. Well, well, Charlie, what should a guy do if his ex hits him up? What would you do if your ex hits you up in this scenario, you got to understand she's looking to make you one of her roster. So I think the key here is to keep your options open, to remember telling her, no, I'm good is going to make your allure out there in the pond right now. All right. And you ever try and catch a bass?

You see the bass sitting there in the weeds. You toss a little rapala, or Rapala, however you wanna say it, toss a beaver tail over there. You try to slow your retrieve around that bass. You know what that bass is gonna say? Nah-uh. No bass wants to catch a skull lure, all right?

It is a lure, it is to lure them in. So you're fast. You're onto the next one. You got many perch in the pond that I suppose. Yeah. Yeah. Let me take it from here. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Help me out miles. Hey miles, can you help me out on this analogy? I've spun myself a line. I think if you're hit, I think if your ex hits you up, you got to find a gal who is one of her enemies and you got to hit her up. Good way to get blocked twice. He's laughing. Did you do that or would that be disastrous? No, no. The way you said no, there would be neither.

There'd be neither. Um, cause I actually, she really didn't introduce me to a lot of her friends because she, for some, for whatever reason, she wanted to keep our relationship secret and we dated for two months. So, you know, I thought maybe I kind of went along with it for like, wait, you dated only, you only dated for two months. Yeah. That was my longest relationship. Oh my gosh. How old are you? That's not a relationship. That's a funny fling. My guy. Yeah. What are you? You're 20 years old. Oh my God, dude. Just hang out with her for the summer and then go back to college. Yeah. We've had several 19 years old call up with her.

It's not going to work out. Notice how no one who's 30 years old calls and asks for relationship advice, Charlie. Yeah, because they realize it's all shit. Nothing matters anyways. It's all about disappointing your parents until they die. And then you die. That's what life is about. You'll pay taxes in between there. Robots will take over the whole deal.

Anyways, you get blocked, you get unblocked. You have summer booty calls. You don't, and then you die. Yeah, you're 19 years old. I don't worry about anything. Oh, you don't need to be caring about any. There's so many fish in the sea. I mean, just enjoy your life.

Figure out who you are, Jaren. I'm also really glad you didn't say you loved her after two months. Yeah, that's not love. That's just lost. You know what? I think more and more this guy's just thinking with his bottom head. I know. I know. You know, it basically just say, sure, if you want to come up here, I'll find us a nice dive bar. That's all you got. Also, quick question.

Is she a Bears fan? She is a Baltimore Ravens fan. OK, I don't. Baltimore Ravens? What the hell? She'd be OK. Edgar Allen, a fan. She one of those artsy farty types. Oh, I am the Raven. Or that's I am the wall. She's from a huge,

she was born in Maryland. I guess she was born and technically raised in Maryland and then they moved to Illinois not too long ago. Okay. Kind of like half a bear span. Not really though. Well, I mean, she sounds like half a girlfriend as well. So I think you know your answer. I don't think you get emotionally attached to this relationship. Just have fun for the summer. Just like, what's his name? Sandy and John Travolta.

What was his name in that movie? It doesn't matter. What was summer loving? Having so far. Right. We're right back where we started. There it is. So don't take this too seriously. She's not taking it seriously. And worst case scenario, you guys was his name, Danny. You know, worst case scenario, you decide this is the one you love.

You get married and by 25, you know, you got your first divorce under your belt. So There you go, just make sure she's you know she's Got a better job than you. Anyways Any further questions with this gal that we can answer for you here? Oh gosh, oh Any further questions with this gal that we can answer for you here? Oh gosh. No, man.

I really, I know I think I've been answered enough. I guess. Are you satisfied with the service you got here today? Yeah. He seems upset. What'd you think we were going to say? I'm not upset by any means. I pretty much got the reply that I thought I would, but I've kind of been telling myself, but no, no, I understand everything like that. So I'm a little distracted

right now. I'm working on microeconomics. Oh, you called up to talk about this, Glovin. You're trying to figure out your macroeconomics. Here's some good macroeconomics. Micro. Oh, here's some good microeconomics. Don't invest your time with this gal. It's gonna cost you 50% of your net worth in the long run, all right?

And the best case scenario costs you 100 bucks for a couple dinners. Yeah. You got to do. Yeah. That's even if you guys get the dinner stage with the way you guys are going. I don't even know if that's even warrants it. Yeah. A.m. booty call. Now, if you do go on a date with her, make sure you wear that hoodie. Okay. You're gonna want to. You're gonna want to. Hey, Charlie, you lost the hoodie. Charlie buckets on buckets on my guy take a lot it's on take a lot it's on take a lap with this gal I'll tell you that

much yeah take a lap in a cold shower and then I think that's where your wisdom will come from all right hey and at the end of the day JJL just jerk off oh is that what that means? Yeah. She hits you up and there's a lot of emotional baggage. Just J. J. O. You'll have a lot of clarity after that and you can have a good free summer. Hang on. Just texting in that advice to J. J. Oh, he just my buddies in college, Tommy.

That right. It wasn't my thought. No, that's true. Not taking responsibility for your actions. OK, got that down there, too. Well, my guy, it was it was real fun. It was fun, you know, teaching the young bucks about the birds and the bees and the flowers and the trees. All right. Yeah, I know something like and the trees. All right.

Yeah, I know something like that. Yeah. All right. Get back to studying your micro-econ. We can tell you're not paying attention to us anyway. You know what to do now. You know what to do. I do know what to do now. I do.

All right. I do know what to do. Thank you. Yeah, you bet. Anything you want to buy, sell, or trade while we got you on the horn? He's gotta study microeconomics too. All right, go study and hey,

we hope you can figure out something cool to do with your microeconomics. Trojan horse and Trojan condom, that's the play. There you go. You heard it here first, folks. All right, my guy, well you have a good one. Go, pack, go. Yep my guy, well you have a good one. Go pack go. Yep, go pack go.

Alright, watch for deer. It's not always being the bearer of bad news, Charlie. You and I. No. You can tell he didn't want that advice, but he could tell that he knew that that's the advice he needed. He knew. He knew. He was calling for for confirmation bias and we gave it to him. Yeah, should we take another call? We should, we shall. We shalt.

Folks, summer's almost here and what better way to bring in the summer than the Tippy Cow, that is the color of the sun, orange ladies and gentlemen. Now if you say it's a yellow sun, I don't know what to tell you, you better look at the sun a little longer. You know, I actually looked at a sun through a telescope once. Did you?

How did that go? And it is orange. It's orange. It's it's orange. It was a sun solar telescope. Yeah. Folks disclaimer. Don't go looking at the sun unless it's a solar telescope.

Yeah. That being said, this bottle is the color of the sun. Take it from a guy who's looked through a telescope right at the sun. So when you wanna enjoy the summer, you tip it on back with the Tippy Cow, that's the color of the sun, folks. Nothing better than a little orange cream Tippy Cow

rum cream in your deal made with Wisconsin cows. Keep her moving and tip it on back to the Tippy Cow. When you need a personal injury attorney Nikolai is the right choice folks. They're regular folks doing good in the world, taking personal approach to each case, delivering their promises. Their primary goal is to do what's best for the clients. Every single day and miles we see it over and over again.

That's not a lot of people's primary goal. When we're in their office, you can feel that energy in there. It just permeated out of that Hudson, Wisconsin downtown office. You know, it's nice to know you were in good hands. So hold my beer and call Nikolay Law, folks. Nikolay, are you in good hands? Are you?

Welcome to the Bellied Up Podcast. Who are we chit chatting with today? Hi, this is David. David. Nice talking to you. How's it going? Good. It's going great. Yeah. We're over here at the Newport, Milwaukee, just having a couple beers. Why don't you belly on up to the bar? Tell us what's on your mind. Yeah, I was just calling so I had a question for you guys. You guys seem like you'd have the answers. Oh, no. Oh, do we? I'm a few beers deep, so you know I got the answers.

We're just the answering machine in here, all right? Boop, boop. All right. Anyways, so I have three older brothers, and I have one niece. Out of the four of us, there's only one baby. So my question is, is what can I do to guarantee that I'm going to be my niece's favorite uncle? Okay. You're Hey, he's talking to the funcals.

I mean, we are a couple of funcals fellas. All right. I got several nieces and nephews. I know how this is done. Miles. You got, yeah, go ahead. How many, I have two nieces and a nephew. All right. Well, I think first thing, how old is this niece? Let's just, what's the niece's name? How old is she?

Her name is Natalie and she's like four months old. Natalie, four months. You got her young. All right. So this is, yeah, a lot of my advice for when she's older, but well, that's exactly it. You at this point, you've got about six months. She ain't got no memories. She's not going to remember you. All right. So you let the other uncles take it all. Can

we hold the baby? Yeah. Yeah. You all that you take care of it now. Let them feel like they got the upper hand. You be the sleeper funkel. And then as soon as Natalie turns, I would say two and a half years old, you are to pour gasoline on the terrible twos. Yes, and this whole time between now and two and a half years old, you are actually making it seem like you are going to be the uncle

that's gonna teach him all of the good things. Right, Charlie? You're going to you're going to make it seem like you are to the parents to your brother that you are the one that's going to instill wisdom into this kid. But you are not. No, you're going to play it quiet. And then once them terrible twos come rolling around, the legs start working. You are going to the mouth starts working, they start talking a little bit. That's when you really got to start licking your chops. First gift you are going to get them is a Play-Doh.

And you're going to get the kind of Play-Doh where you can make your own Play-Doh. Get the dyes going, you know. They're going to love the hell out of it. The parents are going to hate it. You got to get them lots of stuff that can create stains. That's what it's really about. They are permanent paints, permanent markers, the whole spiel.

They're gonna love you for it. The parents are gonna not like it, but they are going to be attracted to the uncle that the parents don't like. They're gonna be like, what's that uncle got cooking? And every party you find a little, you know those little like deals that you can put a quarter in, you find a little, you know, those little like, uh, deals that you can put a quarter in, pop out a toy cheap way to get on the good

side with the kids, watch out for the choking hazards. All right. Watch out for them. Um, another thing, that is always on my mind. Next thing you want to go is you're going to want to attack their vocabulary. So we're talking, we're not talking the bad, bad words, right? We're not talking about teaching them the worst of the worst. We're talking about teaching them fringe words. For example, I taught my niece how to say wiener when she was about two

years old. She knew mom, dad, ball, dog, and wiener. And that's my contribution to my brother's family. Weiner is a good one to start off with. Because it's like plausible deniability. What did she have for dinner that night? Mini corn dogs. I told her she had mini wieners for for dinner. I'm not wrong. And then soon enough, they'll be teaching their friends these words

and then they'll be the cool kid, all right? And they'll wanna maintain that cool kid status, they'll keep cupping back to the funkel. Now, another thing that you gotta do is you've gotta remember that piggyback rides are your key in, okay? So you gotta start with a sack of potatoes on your shoulders now.

The worst thing you can do is give a piggyback ride. They want more and you're not capable of it. Then you're just gonna get tired out and they're gonna go to one of your other brothers asking them for it. And if they got more energy, they're gonna give a better piggyback ride and then it's over for you, my guys.

So start training now with the sack of potatoes. Give the best piggyback ride trips to the zoo. Okay. Be the first one to take her to the zoo. You can show her all the animals, you know, and the best part is go right to the monkeys. The monkeys throw their poop. She's going to love it. She's going to love that.

Yeah. I've never been able to pull it off. You could teach a niece or nephew how to throw their poop in the round in the room. That is, you are talking Jedi master level of being a fun uncle. Yeah. Everything in the body is just there for our entertainment.

We just grow up and we don't realize it. When was the last time you've thrown your poop? It's been a while, but I still faintly remember it. It was a glorious day. It is. So we got the zoo going. We got that. The other thing that you need to make sure,

let's say you take them to the zoo, Charlie, teach them to throw some poop around. Well, a full day at the zoo is gonna to tire those little suckers out. Aren't they? Yeah. Speaking of suckers, you need to get that kid some sugar before you drop them back off at your, at your brother's house. Well played. Well played it because one, the kid's going to love you because kids are addicted to sugar and they love the sugar rush and your brother's gonna hate you because they're never gonna go to bed.

Mountain Dew is huge. Mountain Dew the Dew. Mountain Dew. Pixie sticks. Lots of pixie sticks. Fun Dip. Gob Stoppers. Baby Bottle Pops. There you go. Ooh, that's a good one.

Yeah. That's a good one. Yeah, just you see. She's a good one. Yeah. Yeah. Just you see he's already got experience on I'm sucking on the baby bottle. Yeah. But you might like that already. Yeah. You meet them halfway and then they won't want to eat the rest of their food because it's not the sugar they're used to. Yep. Sugar is bribery of all funcals. Okay. Yeah so, so far, how are you feeling? Is there any other further more specific questions upon anything we've answered for you here today? Well, yeah, I have one question.

So what you're saying is, is that I basically have to be the worst brother ever to be the best uncle? Am I getting that right? Yeah. Whoa, whoa. I getting that right? Yeah. Whoa. I think, yeah. Yeah, okay. I mean, not the, it's not, that's a little cynical.

The worst brother ever wouldn't even care to spend time with their nieces and nephews. That's true, Miles. You wanna spend time with this sucker, even if it means that it pisses off your brother. That doesn't make you the worst brother in the world. No, it doesn't. It just makes you a good, caring human,

and if your brother can't handle that, you know, get out the kitchen. Now, one thing you got to keep in mind is to remember that whatever you dish out is going to come back to you in some way. That is true. When you eventually have kids. It's called karma.

They're going to do the same thing back to you, but that's a rite of passage in the brotherhood of being a brother so um Yeah, take her to her first movie Make it PG-13 to One swear word one and then and then you review it on your way home Yeah, mild nudity, maybe a butt crack in that movie is swaying it to do. There you go. Yeah. Oh My gosh, we can drink deals here. Oh That is very kind. Thank you

Well, so I think that's that's just scratching the surface. Oh, do you have you got boat money? just scratching the surface. Oh, do you have, you got boat money? Can't say I do, unfortunately. Okay, we're gonna talk. But I do know people with boats. Okay, perfect. So that's it, talk to them folks. Get them on a tube.

Yep. And start ripping them around that lake. Teach them. We're talking, head for those wake boats that are destroying the shores of our beautiful lakes. Yep. Launch a couple niece and nephews off those waves. Yeah. And if you can't make the waves yourself, find one of those boats, launch them off their waves, unless that's what you meant right there.

Borrow the waves already there. That's what you meant. All right. I like to take your ideas and make a mine. Same wavelength is at what age do I take her boating? I would say you got to get the memories form. So yeah, I mean, that's a big ask of your friend with a boat. I would say four years old is a good age for the first boat situation. Okay, so you're saying that for I'm supposed to bring her

tubing and have her go flying through the lake and that'll make me the favorite uncle. Yeah, yeah, yeah. She's going to love it. The thrill. She'll be addicted. And if she's not, maybe she wasn't the niece you need to impress all along. I'm starting to think Charlie that I don't necessarily understand the definition of the fun uncle. Is it fun for you or fun for you? Yeah, that's kind of what I'm I love. Ice was fun. I did. I said favorite uncle, not fun uncle. Oh, okay. It's more of a competition with my brothers. You know,

like we're competitive. We've been competitive our whole lives. I'm the favorite uncle. Like that's like the nail in the coffin. Oh, well then it's just give the niece or nephew whatever they want. If you want to be the favorite uncle. Oh hey you want the stuffed animal? Boom done. Care bear in your hands. No worries. Yeah go to Goodwill and buy the toys there. Your dollar is going to go a lot longer of a way. They don't know if toys are new or not. That is true actually. Yeah they don't care. Lots of toys,, lots of gifts and find a good box to put them in. Because sometimes they like the box more than the gift. So focus on the box, not necessarily the president. And you. Yeah. Don't be a good gift giver.

Be a good box giver. That's actually a great piece of advice. Put small gifts in monster boxes. Yeah. Yeah. Get them. Go to the 25 cent machine. Get a little fucking bouncy ball out of there. Put it in a giant box. They're going to love you. And then put it boxes within a box. The little Russian doll thing. You know, they're going to, they love just opening up boxes. And then you got a fort for them and then a little, uh, Nick

neck to go inside. Charlie, that's not a box. That's a castle. Exactly. And then you build a castle with them. And then when it's time to clean up, you got work. You gotta go. Sorry. Oh shit, you know, I gotta get going.

Yeah. Gotta hit my home toilet. There you go. So yeah, well, yeah. I think we gave you a lot to go off. That's a lot of good That's a lot of good advice. You guys gave I ain't gonna lie. I'm like it. I mean that's opening up my mind We kind of do this professionally. Yeah, so and Charlie's got like a hundred and five nieces and nephews So I've been in this game a minute

What if the mother like my brother's wife, what if she doesn't approve of any of this? And then like, she starts buttoning like, Hey, like you're a bad influence. What do I tell her? Anything that comes across as a bad influence, you blame it on one of your other brothers or your brother. That's her husband, right? They just be like, talk to your, I ran it by him and he was cool. I learned it from him. Yes. Yeah. Yep. I learned it from the dad. So sorry. Yeah. And, and start juicing up your sister-in-law too. You know, bring her gifts as well. Yeah. So you go more, get ahead of it. Yup. You get ahead of it. Yeah. That, yeah. Hey, you know, he taught our little daughter to say wiener, but every time he comes over,

he brings us a nice little batch of Scotcheroos. And I just can't stay mad at that guy. See, there's something nice about that, you know? So I'll just show up. I'll just show up with alcohol for her and candy for the baby every time. I think everyone will be happy. Yeah, there you go. I mean. I think everyone will be happy. Yeah. There you go. I mean, I'm happy just hearing that. Yeah, we like that. We like that.

So anyway, any final questions for us before we let you get back into being the best Funko ever created? Nope, I think you answered all I have. Well, another satisfied customer here on the Belly Up podcast. Thank you for calling in and tell your niece we says hi. Okay, I will.

I'll try and call in later in time and keep you guys updated on how it's going. Give us the... We'll see you in two years. Yeah, can't wait Okay, good. All right, you'd be good now Well miles, I mean that question was a softball for you and softball over the plate really hit a homer on that Yeah, well was good another good episode of the bellied up podcast.
