Folks, welcome, welcome.
Another episode of the Bellied Up podcast.
We're here at the American Legion post-4-3-1 here in Three Lakes, Wisconsin.
Shout out to all our veterans out there.
And thanks to these fellas for letting us hang out here today, drinking some beers, taking your calls.
Miles, how are you doing?
I'm doing good.
Yeah.
I'm just hanging out.
I like your hat.
Hey, it's a bad day to be a hot dog.
I think this is great.
Yeah, you guys got to go check out Miles's video where he gave me this hat as a gift and a blinked-out chain.
Don't give it all the way, Chuck.
You leave some mystery.
Oh, yeah.
Go find it.
What's the title of the video, Jake?
We tested T-Moo tools so you don't have to.
I bought a bunch of tools off of T-Moo, and I brought him to Chuck's cabin and said, hey, let's see if we can hurt ourselves.
Yeah.
A couple of them we named.
can quite get to test out there.
Yeah. So go check that out on YouTube. It's on your YouTube too. You're a collaborator.
Oh, I collaborated on that. There you go. Yep. All the publicity, none of the revenue.
That's what we like here, right? Miles. When I do all the work, you don't get any of the money.
All the work. Come on now. I acted beautifully in that one. I'm just glad that. Chuck just stood over my
shoulder and acted like my dad the whole time. Well, I was a little disappointed in you for a few
different reasons. That's a deep tease, but you know, we're not here to talk about your videos,
Miles. We're here to talk about Jared and Jared's got a fun segment for us today. Yep.
The official definition of Midwest terms. Okay. Oh, the Mid-Webster Dictionary.
Mid-Wabster Dictionary. I like that. Okay. So we're about to author the Mid-Webster Dictionary.
So you're going to give us a list of words. And we're,
We're going to try and find the definition.
Yep.
Okay.
The first one is Oop.
Oop.
Expressing surprise, dismay, exhaustion.
You know, they have like multiple different definitions.
There's probably 12 of them.
There is.
Absolutely.
Expressing surprise.
Like, oh.
Yeah.
Excuse me is another definition of that.
Oh.
Sorry.
Oh.
What the hell is going on over there?
Oh.
What?
It says, uh.
No, I think
Ope is one of those words that can mean everything and nothing at the same time.
It's kind of a grace word.
You can use it as a comma.
Yeah, it's a noun.
It's an adjective.
It's a verb.
It's an adverb.
It's an exclamation point.
Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah, it's not only just a word.
It's a punctuation.
Right.
It's a period, too.
comma.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's what punctuation is.
hashtag, you know. Oh, I see. I see. And that was the definition of punctuation.
What other word you got? Next one is Ufta. Ufta. Ufta is originates.
Miles. We got the same brain over here. Yeah. I'm Marion and your Webster here.
Hey, how's about it? Are you Marion into the family or what?
We'll be here all day.
There you go.
See, you make a bad joke.
Ufta.
It's Norwegian folks.
It comes from Norway or Scandinavia.
They're all the same to me, kind of generalized.
And you just pissed off a bunch of people for generalizing them.
I know.
That's like saying Canada and Wisconsin, they're all the same.
Yeah.
But the finger countries, right?
UFTA is a cousin of Ope, I would say.
Yeah.
It's under the same umbrella.
Yeah, like OOP and UFTA should not get married.
They'll have weird.
kids, you know.
That's facts.
That's true.
Well, I mean, they're kind of the Targaryians of Midwestern words.
Yeah, yeah.
UFTA is usually to express something negative.
Yeah.
Or positive, like Ufta.
Oofty.
It's less like that, though.
It is.
It's more like Ufta.
Oofta.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's true. That's true.
So I think the official definition is, why the hell would you do it like that?
Ufta.
Yeah.
You really screwed the pooch on this one.
Yeah, and screwed the pooch actually is another phrase.
We'll get to that.
We'll get to that later.
Yeah.
We can't be over here doing a definition with another definition.
But UFTA, it's sort of like it's also a thing of pride that people say, you know.
I would love to hear that.
in a sentence.
Ufta.
I think that's a stretch.
Yeah,
it's a bit of a stretch.
But,
you know,
we're just having fun here,
Miles.
We're just slinging around.
What else you got,
Jared?
Next one is,
yeah,
no.
Yeah,
no.
That means no.
That means no.
Yeah.
No,
yeah.
That means,
yeah.
Yeah, no,
yeah.
That means, yeah.
It's like a math problem.
This is Midwest math here.
Basically,
you just take the last word
you left off with.
That's the answer.
And you disregard the rest.
rest. Yes. You know, it's like you basically, those two cancel each other out. The last word is in
parentheses. If it was a math equation, you start there. Yeah. And as soon as you put that in
parentheses, the other turns to zero. Yes. Well, actually, that's not good because then you would
multiply those technically, right? Yeah. Yeah. Well, it's kind of a, it's more, it's more so,
like baseball hand signals, you know, you got to wait for the indicator and the indicator's the last
word. Yep. You forget everything else before that. Exactly. You know, it's like,
Mm-hmm. What was that? Um, it was slide because you slid your, on your forum.
Yeah. Slide. Yeah. Yep. It was slide, Chuck. They, that's what they need to signal to the players in
baseball. Yeah. Slide. I mean, don't, don't risk at all, you know. It's, you, I know you can't run that
fast. So the only hope here is if you slide. You didn't play much baseball, did you, Chuck?
Last baseball game I played, I was in six.
I was actually pretty good baseball, believe it or not.
But we didn't get to the point of doing signs.
I kind of hung up the spikes in about seventh grade.
Okay.
Yeah, that adds up.
Yeah.
I got, I got beaned a few too many times.
And after I got beaned, I said, oofta.
Yeah.
Oh, you got me.
Yeah.
Oh, God.
Geez, Louise.
That one hurt.
Sure.
There you go.
Look at you.
Fluent in the language, Miles.
I'm
Jared,
where else
we go on
with this?
Next one is
cripes.
Cripes
is when you're
trying to
swear on Sunday.
Yes.
You know,
my grandpa
Bobby had this
great thing
where we were
out there
musky fishing
and it was
Lent
and he was
trying to watch
his language
a little bit
you know
and actually it
wasn't Lent
but he was
still trying to
watch his language.
It is a great
word for people
who gave up
swearing for Lent.
Uh-huh.
And but he got so excited
when
that musky came in like he it all went out the window he was trying to say cripes almighty but he ended up
saying christ all friday he changed up the wrong word you know and uh but cripes that's what it is right
there cripes is the midwest swear word yeah uh fright you know and you get some respect for that too
you know doesn't come across as soft it comes across as restraint and and also respect respect
Because you're usually probably doing this around your mom.
Yeah.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah.
Respect your mother.
Yep.
Absolutely.
And that's very important in the Midwest.
We do respect our moms here.
Next one is, I suppose.
I suppose.
Usually accompanied with a whelp.
Yep.
Usually accompanied four hours into a Midwest goodbye.
I suppose means that it is the official start of the Midwest goodbye.
And it also is followed up by about three hours.
hours of more small talk and more beers and it is a contraction there is a
parenthesis between i and spose and you can shorten it and just say suppose a a parenthesis or a
apostrophe yeah half a half a parentheses it should just be uh these C's you know because
para it's a contraction with an apostrophe after the eye yeah that's what i'm saying i suppose
Yeah, we can get that right up on screen so people, so Jared has more editing to do on this.
It's also a great way to, it can also be used as a great way to respond to someone that you don't really know what to say.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You know, a lot of people will go if Charlie tells me a story and I don't really know what to say.
That's crazy.
Yeah.
But if you did tell me a story and I know what to say.
I was driving down the road, right?
You know, I saw Terry.
He pulls out in front of me.
And so I slow up because he's slow and go.
You know, he's probably on his phone or something.
And Terry, his neighbor, Jane, actually, she passed last year.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So that's no good, you know.
I suppose.
Yeah.
Something like that.
Perfect.
That was well done.
Great way to add to the conversation without saying anything.
Mm-hmm.
Next one is potluck.
Potluck.
Potluck is an event.
It's an event.
But it also could be a mentality as well.
Life is a potluck.
What did you bring?
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's a more philosophical definition.
Yeah.
But in a real sense, Chuck, what's the definition of a potluck?
Potluck is a gathering of people and food, usually after a church festivity or before a picnic.
Yeah.
There's a lot of food and fellowship going on.
There is.
Yeah.
There's a lot of all what you bring.
Sometimes it's a call.
called the Food and Fellowship Potlock.
Is it really?
I've never been to an official food and fellowship potlock.
What was that?
But I just imagine that's what it is.
Yeah.
Often done in parks at homes,
in church basements,
at bars.
I bet you,
I bet you that the American Legion has had a problem.
If you're in a small town,
there are no other places,
so it literally can take place in anywhere.
100% popular items to bring.
It could happen outside in your house, at a church or at a bar.
And that's, you nailed all of the places you can be.
The local community center also, if you're feeling ambitious.
It's usually attached to the church or the bar.
Yes.
Or it is the bar.
And it's also attached to the city hall.
Yes.
Which is also attached to the police.
Either way, wood paneling is involved in some capacity.
And we're talking the number one item in a potluck is just crock,
Crockpots. Don't matter what you put in the crock pot. It just matters that you put it in a crock pot or in a mold of some sort.
Yeah, even if you're trying to keep something cold, put it in a crock pot. It's great cooling device too. Yeah. Jello salads are preferred potato salads. Really any salads that do not involve lettuce.
Maybe some little smokies, some little weenies. Oh, yeah. You like those little smokies, don't you? I like a little weenie.
Yeah, with a nice little toothpick in them.
So that way you got, you hold on to that toothpick, though.
Don't get rid of that.
Next one is jeet.
Jeet, it's short for did you eat?
Next one.
Last one, you betcha.
Oh, you betcha, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
It's also, it's very, it's, I would like to say that it's a way to end a conversation.
it's a form of affirmation as well.
You know, like if Chuck says something I agree with, which is,
I am the best podcast host you've ever bought.
Oh, yeah, you bet you.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Uh-huh.
You know, and that was me acting.
Right.
That was, I was doing a bit there.
So now, if we were doing real life and you were to say something that I actually agree with.
You have beautiful eyes.
You bet you.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
See, it's supportive.
It's like the.
bra of words, you know.
It just holds you right there.
And it's also known in pop culture, the movie Fargo.
Mm-hmm.
Notable line.
She says, oh, yeah, you betcha.
And she uses in a moment of realization.
Yeah.
She also can be used that way.
Yeah.
A lot of these words I'm finding have just multiple, they're the Swiss Army knives of words.
Very blanket terms.
Yeah.
Go across anything.
You can say it, and it's really not the words, but it's the tone you use that, that says it all.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah.
So, wonderful.
Well, there you go.
My alternate definition is the, for you betcha, is also the best Midwest comedy channel on the internet.
Really?
Actually, in the Midwester dictionary.
That's amazing.
You have many bars I go into where people say, hey, it's a you betcha guy.
I go, sure is.
Do you know how many bars I go into it?
go, hey, you're that guy from Wisconsin.
So people just think we're the same person.
We are the same person somehow.
That's wild.
That's wild.
Because we have different color eyes.
I have a much thicker beard, you know?
Same size.
Penes, though.
You're, you are obsessed with this.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, this is like the fourth episode that how many,
how many dick jokes is this guy need to?
Miles, my mom might listen to this.
How many jerk-off jokes have you made since we got to your cabin?
I don't make those on the podcast, Miles.
God.
I'm trying to keep this, you know, child-friendly here.
Yeah.
Oh, that's not true.
You can tell Jared to cut it out.
It's fine.
Cut it out.
Yeah.
Can you circumcise this intro here, Jared?
I can, yeah.
I'll do that.
All right.
Thank you.
I'll get right on the...
Well, this is...
I'm excited today, Miles.
I'm, you know, I know we're kind of just kicking the rust off this podcast right now.
We've had a long few days here, a lot of fun few days.
I am feeling a new resurgence, though.
I'm feeling really good today.
I got a good night of sleep.
Yeah, I notice that.
Gotta suckle it.
Got to suckle it.
That happens once every trip.
Yeah, I always just get a little too aggressive putting my beer down and it just flows up there and foams up.
That's okay. That's all right. It's symbolic for a previous conversation.
Oh, too, I just let it overflow.
No, I've done that before. And then you ruin. Oh, hey, speaking a look.
Check out these coasters that they got here. These are so, oh, my gosh, these are so well done.
Does that say make it a barrens? And then on the other side says, still nursing this one?
These are so fun. When am I going to get a cut of this?
Not a sponsor, by the way, folks.
just organically pops up into a place here.
How about that?
Barron's old-fashioned brandy sold wherever you get your brandy.
Sold wherever you can buy it.
Yeah.
Well, Miles, I'm ready buckled in here, Bucco.
So I suppose.
Well, I suppose we better get doing to some callers here.
Chuck, we're now fully into summer road trip season.
And everyone's packing up and hitting the road at the same time.
you've got long drives
unfamiliar roads
GPS rerouting you every
five dang minutes
and people making
people making last second lane changes
try not to miss their exit
someone hesitates someone overcorrect
boom bang
my leg
now it's a crash
because nobody's on the same page
you hate that
hate it when that happens
I do hate a last second lane change
I can't stand it.
And every time I have to do it, I think about it for at least 15 minutes after about how I,
how that guy's probably mad at me.
And did you give them the wave?
Oh, yeah.
You gave them a nice wave.
Yeah.
Absolutely.
And then, and then Chuck, not only got all that.
You add in construction detours, people just trying to get where they're going and things
can go sideways fast.
Sure.
If a summer road trip turns into an accident or an injury, you got to call who, Chuck?
Well, as you're sitting there in the ditch with that broken.
like you just look up toward the sky and there you see a billboard and it says hold my beer nicolay law
dot com 1855 ladies and gentlemen nicolay give him a call miles do you have an uncle with a pontoon
i got a father with a pontoon even better kind of pontoon it's it's more of a pontoon speedboat hybrid
deck boat oh fancy fancy from 2004 maybe nice dude well when you're ripping and roaring in that thing
the best thing that you can bring aside for a cold beverage is the shady rays
because they would take all the sun, all the glare, and it'll just throw it elsewhere.
Okay, you like what I did there?
And you can see all the stumps and the rocks and everything in the water because these things
are polarized.
And plus you get you pin that thing down and you're going pretty quick.
Yeah.
It helps keep the wind out of your eyes.
any potential bugs that are getting in there?
Sure.
There'll be no wind tears with these things, folks.
So fears not.
Get yourself some shady rays this summer.
And we got to...
Plus, you go driving by wearing these bad boys.
Oh, the coolest guy on the lake.
Man, Anne's going to have to watch out, you know?
That's true.
You're going to get the Gertrude's out there going,
is that Miles and those shady rays?
Woo-wee.
Let me, you know, give him a little, uh,
wave over to my dock.
Yeah.
And you're just going to be have to say, I don't have any rope, you know.
And, and, yeah, but that's the danger with these shady rays.
They're an attractant.
So anyways, but.
So if you guys are looking for some sunglasses for the boat, the pontoon this summer,
you got to go to shady raise.com.
Use code bellied up.
You get 40% off two or more polarized glasses.
Isn't that?
You can get glasses for the whole.
whole family.
The whole BAM.
You can get them.
And a heck of a deal and they feel
like they're $200 glasses, but
they're not. They're a great price.
Check them out, ladies and gents.
Go to shady rays.com.
Hi, Steve. You got Miles and Charlie
from the bellied up podcast. How you doing,
bud? Good.
Steve Ann, how are you doing, my
guy? You ever go by Stephen or do you
just stick with the others? I don't care
as long as it's not Stevie. That's like a family
thing. And that's like what you call a little
kid.
Oh, okay.
Steve, not Stevie.
All right.
All right.
Well, then I will call you Steve not Stevie from now on.
Ground rules set there, Steve.
So belly on up to this bar, my guy.
Yeah, what's on your mind?
We hear that you sell cat food, which I'm going to go out and say that you're the first
person I ever met that sells cat food.
Yeah, we work over at Jefferson, Wisconsin.
Uh-huh.
We're not too far from Charlie.
We do a Nestle Perina.
So whenever you drive through, we have this really.
bad smell.
That's us.
Yeah, there's a dog food plant by, uh, in,
it smells like that.
Yeah,
in Perm,
uh,
Minnesota,
I think.
And it doesn't smell good.
I can tell you that much.
Nope.
Cause,
uh,
we have a silo and it fills up with all the meat that we don't use.
And then at the end of our 12 day run,
they pump it out.
So all that stuff sits in there.
And then it just,
there you go.
Okay.
That's what you smell.
Got it.
And what,
uh,
where is,
what do they pump it out to?
just a truck and where does it go after that no idea you don't know the mystery means
they go make hot dogs with it yeah baking a hot dog we're going to get the weanermobile in our
building next month no kidding it's going to be chuck sister driving it yeah my sister used to be
a weiner mobile operator she's retired now she's retired she's hung up the weenie but uh you know
she she loved that job i've been in a weeney mobile so have you ever
been in one there, Steve?
Nope.
A big day for you.
Steve, I'm going to say this and I'm sorry, but it is really tempting to do a Stevie weeny thing.
I just, I just want to put that out there so you know it's on my dome, but I'm not going to say it.
Stevie in the weenie.
Stevie and the weenie?
Do you think you'd allow people to call you Stevie if you were in the weenie just one time?
Maybe.
I can let a slide depending on the situation.
It can when it's signed
Anyways
So what's it like to work in a cat food plant
It sucks
Does it?
Yeah, so you're not the owner of a cat food plant
No
If it's suck
How bad is it suck?
We're looking for class action lawsuits and so
Yeah
Well
As someone who probably has worked in a factory
Do you feel like sometimes they hire
Like I want to say they're a special needs guy
But like they say they can do the job
You know they can't
And there's like a language barrier.
It's like they're definitely getting attacks right off or having idiots like that that work here.
Wow.
No, no, it's and their butts.
Yeah, Steve.
Steve, you are.
How do you really feel?
It sounds like you're a great coworker.
Well, I'm a delight.
And so I have this guy.
He broke a pre-breaker yesterday, second time in two years.
Oh, no.
Because some things aren't supposed to go in there.
And, well, they do.
We do meat blocks.
So it goes up a conveyor.
Air belt goes in a pre-breaker, throw it too much, don't throw the right amount.
You're going to snap a bolt.
You're going to crack it in half, cost a bunch of money.
Second time in two years.
There's no shear system on that situation?
It just has a cutoff.
If something breaks, shuts off.
We just have a screw, breaks it all up.
Yeah.
And have you had a conversation with him about this before?
Yeah.
He just does the, at least from Nicaragua.
does the whole how do you know it was me that is true do you know that it was yeah Steve do you
have hard evidence that he threw that meat on there well he came in early for overtime
and then the other time he did before that he put a meat poker up there and metal don't go in metal
why do you put the meat poker there because he's incompetent okay do you know for a fact
he's the one putting the meat poker there do you see it yeah yeah I don't know
I don't know if he had a talking.
He had a talking.
Okay.
And when, uh, sometimes blocks get stuck,
we got to stab our pallets.
And so if the forks get stuck,
you got to have one operator kind of push the blocks off.
The guy backs up.
This guy thought,
I'm going to try it different.
And he drove forward and slammed the mast in my hand.
And, uh,
he kind of crushed it.
Oh, he crushed your hand.
Well, he got a good back part of it, right on the bone.
Are you, did you get injured pretty good?
Nope.
But all I could do is recreate like an Ace Frantara when he's fighting the tribe.
And I throw the arrows out his legs.
Can you just look at your hand?
Because you can't believe what you just witnessed.
That's a great visual.
Yeah.
Because you can't believe someone can do that.
Yeah.
But you didn't get injured.
Because if you did, we know a guy you can call.
Oh, I know.
I ain't going to get injured because I ain't going to have the little safety first.
You're fired.
So just walk it off.
Okay.
Well, but you could have gotten that workers' comp, you know?
Maybe.
We know a guy.
Could have helped you do it?
But, yeah, Nicolet.
But, I mean, it's, Miles was just talking into his beer.
That's how we're doing today.
He's drinking a Bushway.
Yeah.
Have you tried the new Linies?
Which one?
We're in Shandy.
Orange Shandy.
I haven't yet.
Is it good?
It's good.
It doesn't have the same love that it used to because no more in Chippewa Falls.
So you kind of have a disdain to it a little bit.
Well, that's a shame that they couldn't keep that.
I know they tried.
I know.
They tried to buy it back.
Yeah, which is kind of crazy that they couldn't.
Yeah.
Could you still make money?
Right.
Yeah, I don't quite get that.
I don't get it.
But that's neither here nor there.
I suppose what we're trying to do here, Steve, is figure out, you know, what can we do to make you happier at your job?
Because you're spending a lot of time there.
I actually had an idea.
Oh, did you?
It sounds like the real problem that you have is just working with other people.
So why don't you break out on your own and start making your own cat food?
Sounds like a lot of work and money.
Okay.
So you're not really trying to do that much work.
I want to have a job where like I can be left alone, make a good living and not talk to a single person.
Kind of like how you'd probably be like in the forest.
We'd be a park ranger and maybe you'd find a couple hiking.
Other than that, you just sit up in your tree or whatever you do.
Just look at nature.
You need to be a trapper is what you need to be.
Trapper.
I suck a trapping.
I actually got a cat that got out.
I only caught a raccoon.
Wow.
Okay.
Well, that was a good suggestion, Miles, but we found out there.
You just get to be in the woods by yourself all day.
Park Ranger, though.
Have you looked at any, have you applied for any park ranger positions at a state park?
Definitely have not.
I don't think the only one around us is Devil's Lake.
Also, tough time to be applying for national forest jobs.
I don't know if they're exactly hiring at the current moment.
Yeah, you're kind of going to run up to a wall there.
Yeah, I think
But okay,
what are some other jobs
That could involve nature and solitude?
Well, it sounds kind of opposite
But I want to be in sports coaching
Because I'd love to be a football coach
Okay, well, I want to tell you
That there's a lot of people involved with that
Well, I know, but you can still yell at them if they mess up
You got to get a catch 22.
You can kind of be like the foreman.
You can yell at them when they screw up.
That's true, yeah, because that's what good football coaching is.
just yelling at kids making them run and not giving them water.
Yeah.
If you watch any football movie from the 90s, that's what you learn.
Like the program?
Yeah, just more yelling, less water, and make them run.
And Al Pacino should be involved in some way.
Yeah, I suppose.
He did a good job.
Any given Sunday.
That was the reference right there, Miles.
You seen it?
No.
Okay.
Well, you would have laughed if you saw it.
I know, I should.
should see it.
Yeah.
All right.
Well, here we go.
All right.
So Charlie and I are on your football team.
Okay.
We're going to do a few different moments here.
This is practice number one.
Me and Chuck are sitting around on our helmets right now waiting for you to address the team for the first time.
Let's hear it.
I'm already sorry.
Are we not?
I've been started.
I know.
Good award.
Oh, here comes a new coach.
What's his name?
I think his name is Stevie.
Stevie?
Coach Stevie.
Really?
Sounds kind of like a kid name.
Yeah.
Weird.
Odd.
Let's see what he says.
Let's see if we even respect his authority with a name like Stevie.
Oh, here he is.
He's going to address the team for the first time here in fall camp.
Hey, coach, Stevie.
Hey, how's it going, losers?
I see, uh, we're not doing too good right now.
Well, I do.
Cry babies.
Cry babies.
Cips in their laps, sipping on your water with pinky in the air and stuff.
What the hell's going on?
We were just saying we were.
a little sore from
walking from the locker room
to hear. Yeah, I almost pulled
the calf muscle.
Oh, well, a good man once in a sudden
now you just pulled landscaping duty.
Okay. Your back's going to hurt.
Okay. Wow. All right.
That's kind of mean, coach. I want
winners. I want cry babies.
I'm a winner. I just deal with cry babies.
I go home and talk to my kids.
Oh, wow. Wow, he's really mean.
Yeah, geez.
It's not what I expect at all from Coach Stevie.
How is he going to make us if like real actual football players if he's raising a bunch of cry babies?
That's true.
Can't even do it at home.
God, he's, I don't know.
He's just, he's just, he's being a little, he's kind of being mean.
Are you crying?
No, I'm not crying.
It looks like you're crying.
There's moisture coming out of your eyes.
My mom told me that we were supposed to have fun today.
Coach Stevie, you made Miles cry.
Oh, well, I'm sorry.
Maybe if he caught the ball, he'd actually have tears of happiness, not sadness.
Coach, I'm the center.
Why am I catching the ball?
Well, you can be not dropping it.
Poor snap, bad snap, off snap.
He's actually true about that.
He's right about that.
I mean, coach, do you know what it's like every play,
having another guy stick his hands in your ass?
It's a lot, okay?
I don't want to be center anymore.
What did he say?
What did you say, coach?
I've never been to jail before.
I had no thing or two about that.
I ain't nothing special.
Just be comfortable with it.
I'm 14 years old.
Have you been to jail, coach?
Coach?
Moving on.
No, coach, we got to know.
I think we're dealing with a felon.
Oh, guy.
He's got that thing on his ankle.
What is that?
He's got a bracelet.
Yeah, that's cool.
Is that one of those things that counts your steps?
Yeah.
It beeps as soon as I go a little too far.
Does he know?
My uncle has one of those and he's actually not even allowed next to schools.
How did you get in here?
I am not that type of uncle.
All right.
Hey.
Well, what are we going to do today, coach?
Well, you are probably just going to sit here because you're not doing too good.
I'm thirsty.
Harley, he's pretty awesome right now.
Thanks, coach.
He's holding the band together.
Yeah.
Yeah, I'm holding the bandit.
Wait.
You're such a suck up.
you're crying like a little bitch
Hey coach
Can I have some water?
Sure
You're the star of this show right now
Yeah thank you
The water you want
You're not crying
I'm your favorite quarterback coach
Do you hear that Miles?
Wait so you're the ones
That's stuck in your hands in my ass
Yeah
You didn't know that
You should turn around sometimes
Oh God
All right
Well
So what are we doing today coach
well we're going to run a few plays hope for the best okay what type of our best ain't
good what type of offense are we running coach uh i love a good play action with the quarterback
reads the area see what he likes i like reading areas what's a play action coach he's been reading
my area way too much it's starting to concern me i think that's why he starts putting a visor on
so he can't watch his eyes anymore how did you know i have the visor
Coach.
Pretty obvious on your helmet.
This is the first practice.
Oh, this visor right here.
I see.
I thought you meant the visor in my locker.
Well, what?
All right.
So we're going to do play action all day, coach.
Play action, run.
Let's do a little bit of,
see how far that noodle can throw a ball.
Needle.
Noodle.
Noodle of an arm.
Is it strong, sit soft.
I make the distance.
I can do curls of 20 pounds per hand.
I don't know if that's that good because I've seen this one guy named Joey.
He had a hernia doing 15s on the floor.
He did a hernia doing 15s on the floor.
He got a hernia.
Joey Triviani.
What's a hernia?
Lift some more.
You'll find out.
Coach, we're 14.
We don't know these big adult words.
I don't think we're supposed to be lifting.
that much. They said stunts your growth.
Well, it's coffee. You're good.
Okay.
All right. Well, let's go do some play action.
Oh, play action. All right. Let's play with the action.
Now, coach, I do have one concern, Coach Stevie. If we only do play action, won't they just
know that we're never running the ball and thus negating the advantage of the play action?
Well, because you guys are so young, you're better off doing play action so you can read the
plays, read the players in the backfield, read the players on defense, see where they're
going to go.
That way you have the option to throw it or run it.
Oh, okay.
So the better you understand.
Oh, so you want to do an RPO situation.
Oh, yeah.
Read, run pass option.
Oh, run past option.
What is negating mean also?
You said that before.
I'm not.
I said that.
You said negating.
What did I say?
What did I say?
Never mind.
All right.
Let's do the PRO.
All right.
You guys ready?
Yep.
Down.
Set.
Hang on.
Hold on.
All right.
All right.
Okay.
54 is the mic.
I can't.
54's the mic.
Thank you.
All right.
All right.
Got it.
Down.
Set.
What's wrong?
Coach, he moved.
I'm going to have a bruise.
You got a false start.
I'm going to have a bruised taint.
not looking too good so far
well he's got us off tank coach
I can't help it
I was doing my job I was trying to do the PRO for the negate
everyone in the bar right now Charlie
you're like what the hell did we
oh my gosh we had an audience
sorry guys sorry about that
this show isn't as weird as what you just saw
we're role playing over here that was actually
the weirdest thing we've ever done live on this podcast
that's half true not in life but live
I'm sorry he said taint I didn't
I wouldn't have approved that if he said it.
Oh, man.
That's where you draw the line.
You're not just giving me a old slap to the taint?
Well, Miles, stop saying taint.
We are in mixed company here.
Okay.
Good award.
Jeez, Louise.
We'll buy them all a drink.
All their next drink.
We'll get that for them.
They have Barron's old-fashioned brandy here, by the way.
If you guys are interested in that, not pressure in you or anything.
And not a sponsor, ladies and gentlemen.
But, yeah.
So anyways, Steve, I think you did a pretty good job as a coach.
I'm going to be honest.
You really put some emphasis and some, and you were nice to me as a quarterback.
You picked your favorite right away.
That's always huge.
And you emotionally abused Miles and you're a felon.
And so I think you did good.
Yeah, some of the best coaches are having problems right now.
look at Mike Grable.
Oh, yeah.
Pretty big on that one right now.
Bill Belichick.
Yep.
Biggest cheater we know.
Yeah.
One other code,
uh,
Harbaugh got in trouble.
Sean Payton.
John Payton got in trouble.
Pete Carroll got in trouble.
What'd Pete Carroll get in trouble for?
That was when he was at USC.
What was he doing?
Same,
pretty much just paying Reggie Bush and
Matt Leunter and all that.
He paid them?
It's kind of ironic when you think about that because not everybody gets paid to play.
Correct.
And that's why Reggie Bush wants his Hisman back.
did he get it back?
I think he might have got it back.
Anyways.
Yeah.
So yeah, I think you could go the football coach route.
That wasn't old.
That was oh, not too bad.
You know, my son plays football.
And I don't like watching his coaches because they're a bunch of dads that I think they just want to say they play.
But they don't know shit because they still use the high school play.
If you go on the high school prep for Wisconsin, Ford, Atkinson is like the top nine worst school to play football for.
The top of there.
Nine worst.
My son looks at it all the time because he doesn't know who he wants to play for.
And they have the same playbook for the middle schoolers as they do for the high schoolers and the elementary schoolers.
And they still can't win.
Well, they have the same playbook.
I mean, everyone.
Yes, they do.
Everyone, do people copy the playbooks and pass them around?
Like, is there any underground of playbook sharing in the high school and grade school?
Well, I don't think they'd want to pass around our playbook.
Why?
Yeah.
It's a lot of triple reverse.
I was just going to say it's only play action.
Yeah.
It's just a lot of stuff that they think the kids have cannons and kids, I'm going to say
they're stupid, but they know run to the outside.
That's it.
So do the opposite.
I'm noticing a pattern with you here, Steve.
I feel like in every situation you're in, everyone else is doing it wrong.
That's good at home.
I'm always doing it wrong.
So at least one time I can do it right.
Ah, we got to the deeper issue.
That didn't take much digging at all.
So why is it at home?
You're always doing it wrong.
Because I'm a man.
Because you're a man.
And to be face it, we find the laziest way to do it right.
So it's less work that we have to do.
But we're still going to get it done.
That's true.
Is that what you say to your wife?
I don't say anything.
You don't say anything to your wife?
You just do the yes dear.
You just hold it all in and then take it out on your coworkers.
and two guys doing a podcast and a bar.
That's right, I guess.
I like it.
Can you give me just a look into a day in the life of you at home?
I got six dogs.
Six dogs?
Wow.
So it's a lot.
Then you got the same as cats.
You have six dogs and six cats, Steve.
Yeah.
We got two guinea pigs trying to get rid of them if you want them.
They're free.
They come with flowers.
You were talking the other day.
You could go for you having a guinea pig right now.
I was thinking about doing the guinea pig situation.
Your girlfriend's got an airless cat.
You could bring home a guinea pig.
Oh, that would be son.
She'd love it, though.
I don't think.
The guinea pigs are fun.
They're smart.
They know when it's feeding time.
Well, why do you want to get rid of them then?
I'm the only one who takes care of them.
I don't have time.
Well, did you get the guinea pigs or did you get those?
They were a gift for the wife and then she's terrified of them.
Because she used to have guinea pigs, but these ones are frightening, I guess.
so she doesn't want anything to do with them.
So happy birthday.
And so now I got to get rid of these things.
My oldest has two bunnies in his room.
You live in a zoo, Steve.
No, I live in a condo.
You live in a condo with six dogs, six cats, two bunnies, and two guinea pigs?
Yep.
And we're on the end of our street, so nobody's going to know because it's private.
Steve, how does your house smell?
Well, it gets to the point where,
I might do my litter box every day, but I don't.
So you change it a lot and a lot of frieze.
And this thing called salemal.
It's a meliluca cleaner and makes everything smell like pine salt.
It's like a blessing.
It's a natural cleaner.
Buy it online.
Animal safe.
Animal everything.
Put it in like your shampooer.
Everything helps for like a day or two.
And it just goes back to the same thing.
You don't say on top of it.
Are you, are you, were you paid by them to say that?
this podcast? That sounds like
an ad read. Oh no, it's
a very good cleaning product.
They do more than that. They have like natural
food. They got deodorant, shampoo.
I feel like I'm in the truonsor.
Why don't you go work for them, Steve?
I don't know where they are.
And I'm hoping for that packer job
to finally open up for me whenever I
keep applying for it.
That goes to.
Steve,
I want to, yeah, I mean, what is your
wife getting on you about what is she telling you you doing wrong well i have pretty bad dyslexia
so like i can't remember half the shit i get told well if i don't do it right away i will never do it
it's kind of like the yard i won't mow it i know i have to then you look at the cloud it's a little
cloudy tomorrow and it actually rains and you're really fuck so then you got to do it again and then
now it's still raining so it's april now your grass is up to your knees and it's gonna be a while
stuff like that.
I procrastinate a lot.
It's not what I mean to.
I just do it.
It happens.
Did you want to get these six dogs, dude?
I'm still not over the fact that you have 15 animals living in your house.
That's just in the house.
We bored animals too.
You bored animals?
Yeah, my wife has horses and we got too many donkeys.
When you live in a condo?
Yeah.
I know we're living the dream.
Is this condo?
a shelter belt in the middle of nowhere.
How many neighbors you got?
We just got one on the side of us,
but we live in like a kind of condominium
area where they're side by side.
And we're the last house.
So nobody comes over.
Our landlord doesn't even live anywhere around us.
They don't visit.
We're fine.
Fine.
Until this dead tree falls in our house and then we got to get them out of here.
I know I was working at a cat food place now.
That makes a lot of.
We get a discount on cat food.
Yeah, I bet you get the five-finger discount on that cat food.
Oh, no, they frown upon that.
We've had people actually steal off the line and put it in their car, idiots.
Also, I love how they don't say that's a no-go.
They just frown upon that.
It's frowned upon to steal the cat food.
You technically can do it that's just frowned upon.
Do you ever take the leftovers home with you, though?
We don't really get leftovers.
Okay.
All right, all right.
What about that big silo filled with meat that's going to go bad?
Well, that's the thing's a death trap.
So that's where I work kind of in that area.
So we have like our line conveyors and stuff because we're going to consider the lighthouse of Karina.
So we're like the best running Nestle food plant of all time over in Wisconsin.
Not to brag or anything.
No, not to brag.
No, they won that award.
Yeah, we won it.
We were actually on the news last year in the summer.
Yeah, if you look us up, because we.
We just expanded.
And so last year in the summertime, we were actually on ABC or CBS, some shit like that.
And they all came down and they interviewed everybody.
That was a part of it.
So it was all televised and everything.
Did you get on the news?
How did your interview go?
Oh, I didn't do it.
They didn't put you on?
Oh, no.
No, yeah, show up for that.
I didn't show up for it.
Oh, okay.
That would have been extra hours.
Yeah, I worked 12 days in a row, 12 hours a day.
I don't need to be there any longer than I need to.
to be. You're doing a 12 by 12?
Yeah, so our runs are
Sunday this Saturday, and
we got every other weekend off.
So you do
Sunday, then you go into your
12-day run, then you have off,
then you go back and do it again. Then I do
voluntary overtime, so I do
72 hours a week because that's good
money. That is good money. You got a lot
of horses to feed. Yes,
I do. Wow. How many kids
again?
My wife's got three, and I got one.
So four kids, six dogs, six cats, two bunnies, two guinea pigs, two horses, and a mule?
Nope, just two horses, two minis.
Two horses and two minis. So if anybody wants to start to go fund me for my animals, I'm all for it.
Yeah, what would you say your animal bill runs you a month there?
Steve.
I'd say roughly, depending on what they need.
We got a horse vet coming up.
That's, I think, 13 or 1,400 just to do their shots and their dental work.
GoFundMe is usually for situations that you don't choose to be in.
Well, it's not like anybody would really choose to be in that.
It's just more of they love their spouse and it's what makes them happy.
So you just...
That's actually kind of funny.
It's like a go-fund me, but for like husbands, you know, to fund the stuff that their wife wants to do.
crowd fund them
all the guys get together they get like it only
they got to ask them hey I want to buy this can I use it
they all get together they say that's that's no
that's stupid next
so you I want a beer fridge
your wife wanted all these animals you didn't
you didn't and you just said yes to all of them
not at first because
she originally when I first met her
I went through a divorce
she already had these cats
cool
then we had a dog
next thing you know
hey this dog needs a friend
okay cool
then we see this one
the main society
oh that one looks depressed
we gotta go get that one
okay five
next thing you know
they multiply
and you don't realize
it until they're all
waiting for their dinner
and you got a bunch of bowls
lined up on the floor
and they're all barking
and looking at you
yeah I mean
you explained exactly
how you get six dogs for sure
yep that math
that math lines up
Yeah. Yep. Don't get a corgi. If you ever want one, they're the worst.
I got a question, are you scared of your wife?
I think if you're not at least a little afraid of your wife, you don't have a good woman.
You have to be a little afraid of her. Because if you don't fear her whatsoever, you don't know how to tow the line.
All right. Because that's what marriage is all about. It's just, what is it about? It's about keeping score, having leverage over the other person and knowing how far you can tow the line.
That's what marriage is all about.
And generalized fear is what I'm here.
And walking around on eggshells is definitely another good part of marriage.
I want to say eggshells, but say they want to take their nap or they go to bed before you.
How quiet are you shutting that door?
Very clear.
You got to go into the bedroom.
And how quiet is she?
Exactly.
When she wakes up, the light turns on, walking around, they're yelling at the animals,
they're getting their clothes together and stuff.
They're saying, hey, you need to get up and help me get these kids.
ready for school, then you're trying to figure what the hell
this happened because you went to bed at like 4 a.m. at 6.30 in the morning.
So you're working 72 hours a week.
And how many hours do you think you'd have to work if you had zero animals?
I think I might still volunteer for it because I like the money.
I just have more money.
What does your wife do?
She is a caregiver.
She works for people with disabilities and they actually work out of planned and she actually helps them have a job.
That's wonderful.
Does she work for like a group home?
She used to work for St. Colettas actually over in Jefferson, which is like highly recommended.
And they're like the first one that ever had any type of mental institute that was funded by like Jackie Kennedy.
Oh yeah.
All right.
That's cool.
Well, yeah, that's wonderful.
You did tell her we say how.
and tell all your dogs we say hello to and all your cats.
I will.
They're staring at me right now.
And good luck in the fall, coaching some kids.
Oh, I hope I can.
And also, Charlie, if you ever come to Johnson's Creek,
you've got to do a show at the gobbler.
Oh, the gobbler, yeah?
It's opening up in June.
They're reopening the gobbler, huh?
Yeah.
No kidding.
It comes open in June.
Yep.
You didn't know about that?
Well, the gobbler is...
I knew about the gobbler reopening.
Did you know that?
Yeah.
It's a fantastic institution.
They got that whole circular...
Is the floor going to rotate still?
I have no idea.
They're actually renovating the entire thing,
trying to change the experience.
I just know what's opening.
Gobbler is a very, very good supper club
that was prime back in the day.
And it's seen some better days,
and it's about to see some better days as it goes, as it sounds.
Well, I'll get down.
to the gobbler. That sounds great, Steve.
And I remember the last episode you had your talk,
what you wanted to do on your birthday. And all I thought about,
I went to Tennessee a couple years ago.
And in the mountains at Seaverville,
they have Red Jasper's Beer Garden.
Oh.
If you don't know it, it's all local beer, all microbreweries.
And they're like maybe four or five bucks a pop.
And it's inside the Smoky Mountains.
And you can mine there.
So you just take a little, like, a little shifter.
You go digging for gold and rocks and stuff while you're drinking your beer.
and it's like a stream that's inside the smoky mountains.
It's a beautiful place.
No kidding.
Did you find you gold?
Well, I didn't do it.
I just drove by.
My family's not big on drinking.
So, like, we just skip all that.
I'm the beer drinker here.
Got it.
Okay.
So, yeah, it's a great place.
And plus, it's in the mountains.
You said you wanted to be out in the woods.
What better place to be if it's not Adam's friendship?
Then Sieber.
Yeah.
Hey.
Yeah, it's the second best to Adam's friendship.
That's a beautiful friend.
situation you got there.
And in June,
lightning bugs for one day
they all made.
So the Smoky Mountains light up for one day in June.
Really?
Yes.
Well, you might have just inspired me to go to the Smoky Mountains.
That's just sold Chuck.
Just digging for gold and I won't even have to do it in dark at night
because I'll have all those lightning bugs just shining away.
And they have a little hobbiton in the Smoky Mountains.
It's called.
Hobbit. I think it's called the smoky.
I don't know. I have to look it up again. I forgot.
Oh, Shire or something.
But yeah, it's all Hobbit-based mini-homes that's inside the Smoky Mountains.
They all have stuff set up like Harry Potter houses, the Shire, all this stuff, all cool crap, all mini-homes that look like you're in the middle earth.
When's your birthday, Stevie?
July 17th. July 17th. I didn't mean to.
Do you think, why don't you build up a little courage and ask your wife?
if you can go there for your birthday.
Well, to be honest, last time we went, it was not a good time.
Not me personally, I just sat in the hot tub a lot.
I enjoyed myself.
But when you have people watching your animals when you're gone for the week,
they tend to be a little cranky about it because they want us to come home because it's a lot to handle.
Yeah, you own a zoo, Steve.
We own a zoo.
You should charge.
You should charge.
You should.
Oh, boy.
All right.
Well, Steve, you have a good one.
It was great talking to you.
Thanks for the recommendation.
And, you know, tell the wife and the kids and the dogs and the cats and the rabbits and the gerbils and the horses and the mini horses.
We says hi, okay.
Well, I will let my wife know she's a big fan of you guys as well.
And I also got to say before you go, I appreciate what you're doing with the AI stuff right now with the data centers.
Because somebody's got to say something because not a lot of people really know a whole lot about it.
it. Well, I think that's true, Steve. I appreciate you saying that, and I'll keep on it,
and I hope folks can all look into that, too. So we need as many people as we can get.
Miles is coming on board, too. Yeah, because in New York, they're actually replacing a lot of factory
workers with robots right now. It took effect. Oh, yeah. So Perina is starting a thing on that, too,
because they're starting that in Perina in New York, actually. They want to get AI to do it and
replace the people. Well, that's, that's what's coming. As soon as the robotics are there, even the
jobs they say they're going to bring are going to go away too. So also, all good information there,
my guide. Thanks for, thanks for adding that in here. Oh, not a problem. All right. You'd be good,
my guy. And watch for deer out there, okay? Yeah, I hit one last month. All right. Well, just don't.
All right, have a good one. Capture one at home. See, yeah. Do you like to play football for
him for Steve?
Steve? Yeah, he's a good guy. He liked
me too. He did like you. He loves
you. Yeah. He gave me favorability
you know. Not you though.
It felt great. It felt great to be like coaches
Pat. I mean, that's also just maybe
like if you were actually the good
quarterback leader of the team, you would have maybe
tried to build me up more.
Oh, build you up? Yeah.
Sometimes you got break a man down before
you build them up. How's your team?
still stings a little.
All right.
Sorry about that.
You give a five star to someone's your brother's back.
Yeah.
You slap them on the back.
Uh-huh.
Kind of got one of those.
You got four star.
You got red taint going there.
Old red taint, McGee.
All right.
Let's take another call.
Lee,
uh,
Bellian up to the bar.
I'm here with my buddy Miles.
What's on your mind?
It's good to talk to you guys.
Great to talk to you.
Lee.
Um,
So I left a message not even two weeks ago that if something can happen, it can happen to my husband.
And I wasn't sure if I had a story or a buy, sell, and trade.
Okay.
All right.
Maybe a little bit of both.
Maybe a little bit of both.
I think I figured I do have both.
I do have both.
So I'll tell you the story.
Yeah.
And then I'll tell you what I think about the buy, sell, and trade.
All right.
Let's do it.
So it was just before Christmas.
and all through the house not a creature was stirring
not even a mouse and my husband got an email
like a promotional email and it was a sale that was going on
and he decided I'm going to click on that and I'm going to order some lube
okay for the car
no the lawn more for personal use
for his bicycle oh sure okay
we can go with that for cranking his chain hey there you go
crank in his bicycle chain so wait so you're saying your husband bought lube for just himself or
you end him well i whatever whatever you guys want to imagine that's definitely for both
of them so so he clicks on this and he makes an order and proceeds to go to sleep and you woke up
the next morning and there was a charge on his card for over $800.
Wow, $800 worth of lube.
They buy it from Diddy?
What was going on?
Yeah, he got the Diddy bulk package?
The ad that he clicked on also put a sex doll in his cart.
So he ordered.
It just so, it just slipped in my cart.
Oh, God.
These fat fingers, you know.
The buttons on my phone are so small.
My fingers are so big.
he he swears on her marriage that it was an accident and i believe him okay all right hey it's good
that you have trust in your husband i do i i trust 100% 100% trust that that it was didn't he
she's like all right so i want to buy sale and trade some lube and but we've been really enjoying
my story's not done yet my story's we've been really enjoying the sex doll no my my story's not
no yeah no i know that's just that's just the sort of it just quick clear
clarification. Are we talking like an entire head-to-to-st
situation or like just a torso? Yes.
Okay.
Head-to-to-to-no. No, it's a full body.
Is it modeled after anyone, you know?
Maybe. I don't know about that.
All right.
Does it have a face?
Yes.
Okay.
Is it a surprised face?
A little bit.
The old face?
He actually, he actually reached out
to see because he was not happy about being $800 in the hole. He actually reached out to see if he
returned it. Nice. I see what you did there. And at least it was easy to get $800 in that home.
People will pay a lot more than $800 to get into a hole. It was, it was a Christmas special. So all sales were
final. Fine. Okay. Christmas special. All sales are final. So he gets an email, you know, FedEx email. You have a
package come in, it weighs 125 pounds.
All right.
So then next day, he gets another email from FedEx.
You have a package coming.
It weighs 98 pounds.
Like, what the hell?
You just got one that said it weighs 125 pounds.
And then the day after that, he gets another email that he has two packages coming
from FedEx.
One weighs 102 pounds.
And the other one weighs 100 for 15 pounds.
What?
We have four sex dolls.
Four sex dolls showed up to your house.
But all different sizes and all different shapes.
And different colored wigs.
Okay.
Different wigs, huh?
Wow.
Yeah.
So over the next week or so, we ended up getting four to, well, three deliveries because
two came at the same time.
That was the same product guy.
That's just the advertising on the packaging.
to save room on packaging they arranged them you know feet feet ahead and they were they were into
separate packages they were just on the same same truck didn't know if they were 69ing in the package
so what what are we going to do with four sex stuff like not all of our calls are like this guys
this that you just got us in a bad swing okay confession is right after this we have a whole bar
we're here at the American Legion and Three Lakes.
And people are wondering what you're saying on the other end of this line.
And there's a lovely lady at the end here with Charlie Sweeterdon.
And she's like, this is not the Charlie Barron's I thought I was coming to see.
Yeah.
This isn't the Charlie Barron's I thought I was coming to see here either.
You know, but speaking of coming, what did you guys do with all these sex styles?
So first of all, they come with no clothes.
So my husband and I had to go shopping at TV Max.
You think it was an American girl?
Are you kidding me?
You went to TJ Max to dress these dolls?
Yes.
Well, they can't be naked in my house.
No, they can't be naked in your house.
You see, you know, you're a good Christian woman.
That's right.
I am.
You should have used Coles Cash, though.
I mean, these things aren't living, you know.
Well, and what's the first?
fun and just starting out completely naked, you know?
You want to have a little bit of forplay going on.
That's true.
A little role play.
So did you get them like bras, too?
Yeah.
Yes, bras and underwear and clothes.
You definitely went theme, though.
You got like a school teacher.
You got a naughty police officer.
What other ones you got?
Work out.
Workout pants.
Oh, workout.
Yoga pants.
Oh, my gosh.
So you guys.
Are they just hanging around the garage or what's going on?
So we got them dressed and my, didn't think much of it, just kind of put them away.
We mean you didn't think much of it.
You went to keep-
Because we're trying to ignore it.
We're trying to like not realize that we have this in our house.
So we kind of put them, we have like a room where we have exercise equipment and a sauna.
We kind of just shoved them in the corner.
Exercise equipment and sauna?
You mean like a swing?
No.
Okay.
so continue on.
And so just and just kind of forgot about it.
And a friend of mine came over in January and says,
hey, you told me you have this like this sauna in this exercise room in your treadmill.
Like, can I check it out?
And I said, well, we can, but I have a story to tell you first.
So I told her about all the sex dolls that are hanging out in our sauna and exercising on the treadmill.
And I said, do you want one?
And she said, yes, I want one.
Oh, nice.
So she took one of them.
And her name is Lady Titi, and she has proceeded to participate in our parties.
And we actually just had a derby party on Saturday.
And she was a part of our derby party.
Got her all dressed up in their nice hat and sat in a chair with us outside.
You guys are the silicone swingers over here.
My gosh.
Do you have kids?
I hope not.
Yeah, one.
You have one kid.
How old's your kid?
11.
11.
So what?
Did you just say like these are American girl dolls?
I didn't really say much of anything.
Just said, yep, they're, they're life-size people.
They're going in the corner.
They're American women dolls is what they are.
Boy, your 11-year-old is going to figure out one day what was going on over by the treadmill
and is going to have a huge therapy.
bill. I'm going to tell you that much right now. I'll pay for it. Okay. I'll pay it. All right.
I'll pay it. Yes. That $800 charge turned into a lot more. Yeah. It's just exponential.
Okay. Well, it's good that, you know, you guys made the, you really made, turned a lemon and made some
lemonade. And what's going, so your friend took one of the dolls and the other two are still three,
are chilling.
Yeah.
Yep.
They're still just chilling in the corner.
Okay.
So you want to buy, sell or trade these dolls?
I'll trade one for sure.
All right.
Because I started talking about it.
And like I've listened to your show.
I've listened to all the episodes, maybe not from the beginning, but I ended up listening
to everything.
And I started saying, man, I should call.
This is kind of a funny story.
It's a great story.
I don't know if it's funny.
Yeah, thank you.
It's hilarious.
your husband allegedly accidentally purchased four erotic dolls.
And I thought, and I forgot to mention that he did, well, he said he contacted the company
after we got all four.
And they said, no, we, we sent you what you ordered.
And he, again, swears on her marriage, he never ordered the first one.
That is smart, though.
If you do want to buy a sex doll, buying four of them makes it seems like it's an accident.
I would agree.
That's a veteran move by him.
Well, but I was, so anyway, I was good to say I kept telling people, oh, I listen to this podcast.
It's a pretty good story.
I should call them.
And I just, and finally, you just said, you just need to call them.
And that's when I.
Here we are.
And that's when I called them the message and just said, and I didn't even leave much of a message.
And I just thought after that, well, they're not going to call me back because I didn't really leave a whole lot of details about it.
Jared knows what he's doing.
So I think I need to ask a question that's maybe on other people's minds as well.
Sure.
There has had to have been a discussion on if you guys were maybe going to try it out or not.
No.
There wasn't?
No.
Really?
No.
Are you sure?
You don't just have four sex dolls in your house and not at least discuss what would it, you know,
What do you think?
I guess we're not that interesting.
Okay.
All right.
Just want to know there were other people wondering.
It was more of a what in the hell are we going to do with these?
Like we're going to get a coffee table and act like they're playing cards.
Are we going to dress them up for the holidays or what the hell are we going to do with this?
That would be great.
I think you fully embrace it.
I think you every single holiday, absolutely.
You change out the clothes.
Yeah, I mean.
So that's where we embraced giving the one to my friend.
And like I said, she was, she was at, we had a party in February at her house.
And we had her all dressed up and read for Valentine's Day.
And then she was in her fancy dress and hat for the derby party last weekend.
And so we fully embraced that.
She came home with anyone?
No, no.
She wanted to stay at her place.
Yeah, you guys play Spin the Bottle with her.
yeah yeah the guys the guys and gals the party without making it weird for anyone with other people's
spouses you can play spin the bottle and every person gets a chance with the four with the four
sex dollars and then it's not cheating you know yeah it's oh my god please don't give me the red
I was starting to not be embarrassed about this story.
I was starting to not be embarrassed about this story,
but now I'm turning red of embarrassment a little bit.
I am a good Christian woman.
You are.
And your husband,
is he purchased anything else from that site since?
No, yes.
Did you guys even get the whoopicans?
I don't even know.
I was thinking about that.
Yeah, right.
That shit's long gone now.
Probably, yeah.
He's like, yeah, we didn't get any.
So you want to trade these.
So first of all, if there's any listeners out there looking for a like new sex doll,
we got three of them burning a hole in her pocket here.
And number two, what are you looking to trade it for?
Well, I just have one thing that came up in my mind.
And I don't know if Charlie's going to go for this or not.
But he's going to be in Duluth that I don't live very far from right.
around my to my friend who houses Lady TT's birthday. I'll bring you a doll, Charlie,
for tickets to your show. That's cheap, Chuck. Oh, man, we would. You will get you. That's not a
bad deal for you. We'll get you tickets to the show. Okay. I'm guessing. You're on the road a lot.
I'm guessing I'm going to have to give you three tickets.
Wait, you one ticket per doll? That's right. He does.
travel with a trailer, so I think it can be doable.
The heaviest one was 125 pounds and she's gone.
So the rest, the other ones are right around 100 pounds.
So, you know, you should be able to handle it.
Good Lord.
Yeah.
Okay.
We'll get you tickets to the show, but you can, you can leave, you know,
TT at home.
Yeah, leave the TT next to the treadmill.
Chuck, you need to bring her up on stage at the show and you do a buy-seller
trade or a Craigslist. Should we auction it off for charity?
Hey.
Good auction it off for charity.
What's your favorite charity?
I usually go for, I don't necessarily have a favorite one, anything local where the money
stay in local.
Okay.
All right.
Well, why don't you think of a charity and then we'll send you some tickets and you
make a game time decision if TT's coming to the show?
What, all right.
Okay.
well, you named one of them.
I got to know what the other three names are.
So one was Dorothy.
And you're not going to get TT because she's with my friend.
Oh, that's right.
The one was Dorothy, Belinda, and Helen.
Okay.
Howlin.
So smolder gals.
Molder names.
Just as ridiculous as the story.
And I thought maybe one of them would be cinnamon.
or something like that.
How are you going to carry this 100 pound doll to the show?
Just between you and your husband, just kind of like...
Semantics, right?
Yeah, yeah, right.
I have a dolly.
I mean, we can figure it out.
You have a dolly for your doll?
So you got four...
That's where they got the name from.
You have four dollies.
Switch one of the name to Dolly.
We got Dolly on the dolly on the dolly.
I can do that.
that's negotiable.
Yeah, sure. No, we'll get your tickets to the show,
just ratchet strap, dolly to the dolly,
and roll her on over.
And we'll auction her off for charity.
It's like Hannibal Lecter.
Yeah.
And Chuck, I don't know what your policy is for your show,
but you might need to change that show to 18 plus.
Yeah, that's not a bad idea.
Yeah, I don't think we need any more 11-year-olds
traumatized by this situation.
Oh my gosh.
All right.
Well,
good.
You know,
all right.
Well,
thank you for calling in.
We're really glad you did.
It was a wonderful story.
We got you locked in for tickets to that show.
We're going to raise some money for charity.
And just do me a favor and don't get any crazy ideas with your husband with this
now before the show.
You want it like new.
Okay.
They are new.
They are not like they're new.
Well, you took them out of the box.
Well, true. Yeah, okay. Fair.
Please put the box back in the box. That would be preferred.
Jesus.
Jesus Christ, Chuck.
That's just too far, man.
That was too far.
What are you talking about?
This story was a little too far.
I don't know, the whole thing.
All right. Well, look, we appreciate you.
And good luck with those.
And we'll see you. When are those shows? I don't know.
Coming up.
All tickets, folks.
Charlie Barron's.com.
You really want to get that deluxe show going.
All right.
Lee, well, hey, thank you.
We appreciate it.
Thanks, guys.
Tell your husband, we says hi.
And your new friends, too.
And tell Dorothy and Helen and Gertrude.
Belinda.
Belinda.
No, Dolly.
We changed it to Dolly.
Yeah.
So tell Dorothy, Dolly, and Helen that we says hi.
Yeah.
I will.
For whatever reason,
And they're always shocked to hear that from us.
Charlie Miles says hi and they're like,
Oh.
What?
The Midwestern Ope face.
Three old faces staring back at us.
Oh, Lord.
You guys are too much.
Well, thanks for calling in.
Chuck will see you soon.
Yeah.
Thanks for taking my call.
see it wow miles what would anne do if you made that same mistake i'd be bad yeah why because you're out
a storage you can say it's for a video or something yeah i mean honestly yeah we have a very good
scapegoat of being like oh anything we buy is for a video yeah brian bought that and then you just
go ah we shot it we didn't like it so now we just have it it's just it's just a sex style with a shot
gun hole through it.
Was boxing a box too far?
It's box a derogatory term.
No,
I was just doing a funny, Chuck.
Oh,
you got a little white in your beard there,
Miles.
Hang on,
let me pop,
pull it out.
Should I pull it out?
You want me to pull it out?
You can?
I don't prefer it because I like to just...
Embrace it.
Yeah.
I got a couple whites, too.
Mm-hmm.
Can you see them?
I'm more of a dirty blonde.
You got that...
You're just a little more patchy,
so it's harder to see.
Oh, okay.
Okay.
Do we got any more callers, Jared?
Okay.
Well, guys, thanks for tuning in
to another episode of the Bellied Up podcast.
If you ever running through three lakes,
you got to stop at the American Legion post 431.
Right off the main drag,
right across from the hardware store.
Mm-hmm.
Or Kitty Corner, I suppose.
But anyways, come on down
and get yourself a Baron's old-fashioned brandy.
And don't forget to tip your bartender.
We'll see you in the next one.
Okay, I hope you guys have a good one.
Goodbye now.
Oudaloo.
