It's nice to see you here, Miles. Nice to see you too. You're looking jacked. Yeah. I'm dried off from the last time that we had an episode from the coffee that you spilled on me Just spilled a little bit miles it was a lot of bit it was a lot, but I Don't care. Thank you. I can tell on the way you just aggressively patted my arm that no, it's fine

I just some think about like, you know, like he's kind of the pants. I was like pretty What do you call? I was pretty like committed to for this week. I might have to swing over and pick up a new pair of pants somewhere or why is the laundry at the hotel? Why you don't need to wash it. Miles little coffee. I've spilled coffee on this pants. I'm not big in the washing pan. And I started thinking, Charlie, about when you spilled the coffee on my pants. You are just a special human being. Thank you, Miles. You are one of a kind. Thank you. And then I started thinking about other people that are one of a kind. Let's say Dolly Parton, Dolly Parton. How'd you get to Dolly Parton from Charlie Bairns? It was, I was actually

thinking about this, not in that moment, but mentally we were actually think about this. Not in that moment, but before we were talking about Dolly Parton and Dolly Parton land. And we said Charlie Barron's in Wisconsin should have his own Charlie Barron's land. Like my Graceland. You should have your own theme park. Well, that would be a disaster. That's part of the fun. Wow. All right. So in Wisconsin, you'd have the Wisconsin Dells. Yeah. What else is the landmarks in Wisconsin?

What are the landmarks of Mars cheese castle, the house on the rock and Charlie Barron's land? That would be on your end. I kind of like it. I kind of like it. That would be great. That would be cool. I'm down for that So I was starting to think about if this is a theme park, I think you'd have a roller coaster ride that

No, that's all right. There's there's two ways we could go with this Okay, so, you know like that it's a small world after all Yeah, right So, you know, like the, it's a small world after all. Yeah. Right. You'd have a ride like that. They just kind of, you know, float through something with us with like roll out the barrel or one of your songs from your albums. I, there's so many good songs and I can't remember a specific name of one of them, but you'd be playing that in the background and the whole time. The only thing you would do on this ride is just watch out for deer.

Oh, that's fun. So it's like you're, it's just, it's just fake trees along the whole way that you're going. And the whole ride is just keeping your eyes peeled for deer. Now, do you ever see any deer? It depends. No, that's it. It's just like a little, little ride through the woods and you just go watch out for deer. It's just like a little, little ride through the woods and you just go watch out for deer. So you just make little woods around. Yeah. We don't even have to get deer. Just, it's just a ride that you just watch out for deer. Yeah. You might see them. You probably won't though. And then like, yeah, once a decade you, you actually put a deer in there just to keep people coming back. God, that

only happens once every often. That's what you make it more special that way is that's the cheapest best way to do it. You do it once in a while. Cause then when anyone sees a deer, they're like, Oh my God, I saw a deer there. It's like a life experience, you know? Yeah. And then you're not, you know, like they have kissing booths at like, or like a games and whatnot. The kissing booth. Yeah. Instead of a kissing booth, you would have a tell your folks. I says, hi booth, where you pay a dollar. You give someone, you pay them a dollar and that person calls their parents and tells them that you say, hi. Oh, that's awesome. Yeah. Wow. I went to this one interesting bar in LA once where you put a dollar in the hole and you touched a Willie and

It was that's not where I was going with it. Well, this is much more PG version I'm glad that I'm the one planning the Charlie Barons land too. I didn't do it by the way It was just offered at this tavern. Got it. Yeah, it was wild offered at this tavern. Got it. Yeah. It was wild. I'm trying to think of what else we could do. What would you want at your own theme park? My own theme park. Oh my gosh. You know, it could just be, Oh, uh, it could, there could be like a robot land, you know, where you have a bow and arrow and you just shoot robots. Yeah. Yeah. It's like the games that you spray the water guns at the, at the stuff and wind stuffed animals and stuff. You just have AI robots that they're plastering down.

That could be cool. And you know what I actually want now I'm thinking about and looking at that dartboard? I want a massive dartboard and you just shoot bow and arrow at it. You know, and you can play cricket like that. That's actually just a good game. That is a great game. Yeah, I don't even need to if we need to theme it after me. What else? Oh, you could have it just be adventure deficit land or advent.

Like basically like a big area that caters to my ADD. You know, sure. And it's just like a lot of squirrel like a big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, that caters to my ADD, you know? Yeah, sure. And it's just like a lot of squirrel, like big squirrels running around. So you know, like Disney World, they have Disney World. Yeah. And like they also maybe this is like Universal Studios or whatever. Then they have like Harry Potter world, right?

Yeah, yeah, yeah. We would have a separate world for anyone who is gotten divorced and it could just be divorced people hanging out. It's just a bar. It's like, yeah, a singles mixer, just a big old meat market you got there. Yes, it would. Oh, that's really slick. OK, all right. Oh, I feel like there should just be a bunch of broken down old machines and you can fix

something on them and not fix it very well. And then some mouse breaks, you know, it's kind of got like a steam Threshers convention type of feel where like you can go to booths and tinker with stuff. Yeah. A little tinkering thing like never accomplish anything, but just kind of get your hands dirty. Yeah. And then, you know, if you've ever been to like Valley fair places like that, they have the power tower. Oh, you wouldn't have the power tower. You would have the bird washer. Oh, everyone would get a pair of binoculars

and then you'd rise up on the tower. You could look around at birds for a while. Then at any moment you'll just drop. That sounds dangerous. Cause once you get to the bottom, all the binoculars are going to fall on your head. Workshop still, but you'd go on the birdwatcher. What about, what about the miles miles that you betcha guy? Let's not, that's for a different episode, Charlie. We got to see. Well, it's solidify this one. Charlie Barron's land is the way to go. Charlie Barron's land. Wow. Yeah, I mean, I've all this.

You know, I like to have Mickey Mouse and Goofy and stuff walking around Disneyland. You could just have like mascots of all the characters you've played over the years. Oh, that's good. Just like Scott Cow. Yeah, you have a mascot dad character and he just, all he does is just, just walks around yelling at you. Hey, hike up those pants. What are you

doing? You know, get over here. Hey, hold the flashlight straight. And you got to hold the flashlight. That's one of the games. You went to stuff to animal. If you can keep the flashlight pointed in the right spot the whole time, but while someone's yelling at you, but, but you, but that's an ADD land though. Cause it's like, is that a big squirrel? You're just breaking in the cash. Cause no one wins a prize ever. And, and ADD you got, we have to buy a bunch of squirrels and let them go. I think actual squirrels in there would be good. Yeah, oh this is fun. I'm excited about this, you know? Yeah, you could have like cheese curds

and like serve squirrel too. Oh yeah, you guys ever eaten squirrel? Yeah, just serve squirrel. Yeah, deep fried squirrel. That's nice, squirrel on a spigot, that'd be good. Yeah, you could have bonfire making, you know? You could have the TP making, you know, you could have the the T.P. and the log cabin areas.

That's nice. Now I'm trying to think of. Yeah. And like, you know, we have the watch out for deer, you know, kids one where they go and they just watch out for deer. Yeah. You could also have a roller coaster that would constantly be looking like you're going to hit a deer. deer at the last moment

The coaster swerves around. Oh, that's cool or You are sitting in a deer as a deer and you're trying to dodge cars and then the final move It looks like you got hit by a car and you go through the loop-de-loop Now we're cooking with gas. The role reversal. Yeah. Yeah. And, um, and there's gotta be, uh, there's gotta be someone there that like kind of picks your pocket while you're there. So they'll either take your wallet, your phone or your keys and somebody has to be missing that the entire time they're there, you know? And at the end they'll kind of give you it back. You know, um, the full Charlie experience. Yeah. Cause I walked in this bar today and

I was like, Oh damn, forgot my glasses. And then I went walking back. I was here early and then I came and that's the other thing. Yeah. You, you always have to be kept like an hour later than you want to be. Or they like on the, on the front gates of the place says it opens at 7am. You don't open till like eight 30 people waiting outside. Oh yeah. That's great. Then people can tailgate before. Yep.

That'll be what the, what my, Oh, you guys, you didn't know you're supposed to tailgate this thing. You know? And then people can tell you before the and get a piece of paper that says that they're a shareholder in the park. That's what we're talking about. Has no value. So it has emotional value. So basically it's just like a Ponzi scheme. It's not a Ponzi. That would be great. Actually. Yeah. Everyone get a little plaque. It says in a piece of paper, it says that they own Charlie Barron's land, but they don't. Ponzi scheme. Some things are being sold. I don't know. Well, that's great. I would take my kid there. Hey, I appreciate the idea miles. Thank you.

My kid loves looking around at shit. So he would love watch out for deer ride. That would be sick. That's actually a fantastic idea. Yeah, I'm excited. sign me up is are we gonna do this yeah, I bought a piece of land outside of Madison actually and we break ground next week. So I just need you to sign a few papers and yeah It'd be good to go my funding this Just sign a few papers and then we'll talk about it my funding mess and just sign a few papers and then we'll talk about it. Oh, let's do it miles. Let's do it. Hi. Is this ginger James on the line? It is the guy's voice in person, man. What's going on celebrities. You guys are celebrities in my world. I have to say I'm a very, I'm a very goofy person. So you guys online

I watch you all the time. I'm Get sure I get it right in a place where I can't speak up You know what I mean? Look ginger James with a name like that. You're a celebrity in my book. All right No, let me ask you this. Are you an OG ginger? I am an OG ginger by birth unfortunately, you know and I ended up growing up, hating my hair color for a very long time as a ginger. You know how the gingers get it. We

don't get much popularity in schools. Well, and then there was all the propaganda about gingers not having souls that was going around for a while. Yeah. I kind of like that, you know, because it gives you a little bit of an edge over everybody else. You could, you know, tell people, you know, I don't care about your feelings. I don't have a soul, you know, it gives you a little bit of an edge over everybody else you could you know tell people you know I don't care about your feelings I don't have a soul you know use that to your advantage you know that is very true yeah it's like yeah I came out with a deal with the devil so take me as I am exactly you know they walk by and say hey can you help this old lady across the street do I look like I have a soul dude I'm'm good man. Just for myself, you know what I mean? What's the hardest part about being a ginger? Honestly, as a kid it was definitely fitting in,

but you know after a while you just don't care about that anymore. You just don't care about people's feelings after that. But the hardest thing I think as an adult being a ginger is, and that's a really good question actually,, I want to say, is it the sun? Actually, you know, what's funny is there is all types of gingers, man. There is so many classes of gingers, you know, they have vehicles, they have all these different brands of things, but when it comes to ginger, we are very

intricate, okay. There's gingers that are mixed. There's pure blood gingers, which are going to be straight like redhead, redhead, tomato red with lots of freckles. You know, they get in the sun and they turn into vampires, those kinds of redheads. Unfortunately, I am a redhead with Armenian blood. I had a little Armenian in me. Okay.

I actually, I actually canned very well for a redhead. I get a lot of jealousy from my family. They say, how the heck are you so tan as a redhead? But that is also the DNA. So it comes with gingers. We come in all shapes, sizes and forms. I love that. You hit the ginger lottery in that sense. Let's go to, I kind of did. I got the hype. I got the, I got the blue eyes. I still got a little bit of the freckles, you know, I don't really like those, but those come out in the sun a lot more. So I kind of look like I got a disease when the freckles pop out, you know, like, Hey, this guy's got speckles. Get away from this guy. You're like, you might

catch the speckled disease. You know, so Speaker 3rd-ig-1-0-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1 respectfully right here. Where are you at today? Where are you from? I am from a death. So California I am in the middle of the devil's butthole. It kind of sucks out here because we don't get any weather like you guys do out there. You know, you guys get pretty much the cold weather. We I've grew up. I heard my whole life in California. So, um, I've watched it actually flurry of snow back in the 19, I won't say 96 ish, five ish. I want to say in California, there was a flurry of snow. I kid you not. And ever since then, progressively over the years, it has gotten worse and worse with weather around here. We don't get rain anymore. We don't get any kind of moisture.

We get a lot of fog and we get a lot of summer. So it's like deal with the fog. You can't drive, you can't see anything. It's horrible out here. And then you get the hotness. So that's pretty much the weather out here and the devil's pretty cool. I mean, it'd be, it never raining

and being hot all the time sounds terrible. I would hate that. I would never vacation anywhere like that. But you know, the thing about California, a lot of people say, which I do love is the, the, the, the geo geography, you know, we have the mountains to the north, we have the ocean to the south. We have, we have a lot of different geological areas around here that you can go and enjoy, but as far as where I'm stuck. It's a two-hour driving Where to go have a good time so and you like yesterday with the Sacramento about rip my eyes out and pulled out about half My hair because that's the cities around here the bigger cities like LA Sacramento are just so clustered man

No one knows how to drive out here. It's horrible I've seen a few of your videos about the driving out there and everything man It looks lovely out where you guys are with the driving. I mean, the roads look open. You know, someone's broken down. They want to help you out here. They speed right past you. They probably stop and do a burnout and then laugh

and then take off while you're trying to change your tire. You know, that's just how it is in California. Well, you should come out to Wisconsin. It's much, much more ginger friendly place out here. That's so debate. I really want to go being a Packers fan. I am a diehard Packers fan. My history with the talkers, it was, it was in the nineties.

I know you're a Packers fan, Charlie. I know you, I watched you a lot and you, you don't speak enough about it. Cause man, we are the best dynasty in football. We are the number one. They call the Cowboys American team. I want to pull people's eyes out when they say that. How many super bowls do the Packers have? How many super bowls do the Packers have? We have four and beautiful. We invented the super bowl. We invented the

super bowl. It's called the Lombardi Trophy. When was the last time you guys three-peated the super bowl? When was the last time anybody three-peated the super bowl? Never. So don't try and act like those championships count as a three P title town, baby title town. It just wasn't, it just, you know, like everything else, it just didn't have a title. It wasn't, it wasn't a title that was, he said that they didn't have a title. It wasn't, it wasn't a title that was Speaker 0.(1h 1m 2s): Said that they didn't have a title. So how can you guys be title town? We had titles where the Speaker 4.(1h 1m 6s): Because football was more important back in the day than titles.

They didn't care about titles. We cared about leather helmets and knocking people's feet out while they smoked a cigarette and a thing of freaking a case of beer on the sidelines. That's real football, man. You don't see that anymore. I had an oxygen mask. I was smoking a cigarette. Don't be football like it used to be that. Show me. They used to run out after the game. They used to run out with full kegs and they would dump that over the coach. Yeah, no, no Gatorade bath. It was just a keg stand for Lombardi. They brought out the powdered milk. Open up all the powdered milk. Yeah, they don't, they

just don't make football like they used to. No, they don't. You know, like all the fans used to wear like shirts and ties and trench coats and fedoras to the game. Yeah. And now you guys got showing up with no shirt on when it's negative 20 with pain on their chest painted with the team colors. I love it, man. The little do we know though, that that guy that showed up with the beer belly and the pain on his chest could have started for the, for the 51 Packers, you know, dude, I remember back in the day when the Eagles used to do those, those tryouts, man. Oh my God. That the community was able to go out to the field and actually like 99% of the people coming out just, you know, had these jobs where they couldn't play football

anymore, but they could be superstars if they tried it out there, you know, they were superstars and I miss those days of football. I would go out in the field and try who wouldn't, you know, if you've got an opportunity to play for the Packers. Oh heck yeah, man. I look stupid if I have to, but I'm going on the field, man. I actually had an opportunity to play with the Packers. Charles. Oh, hang on just a second. Wait, let's get it out here. Get out the year book. Oh, there was no dust on that. We must've just brought that out the last time. Tell us about it. I had an opportunity to play with the Packers, but then I hurt my knee. Really? Is that, was that when you were sliding to hand the water to them or was that the water?

This was in high school. Yeah. Oh, high school. There was murmurs. You know, there was, you know, like the online forms that all of the local drunk dads get on and argue about high school football. They were talking packers. They were talking now with the jury's out on if they met the green Bay packers or like a packer at a packaging plan. But I, my mom interpreted it as a packer. Yeah. Yeah. That's that works. I mean, it's all the same. Yeah. Yep. Your dad interpreters Amazon workout warehouse. Also, that's a great sin. A bit. You can use that in your next special. I might steal that. Like I, I, you know, everyone thought I was going to be a packer growing up. Yeah, dude.

And I was going to be at the packaging plan and I just missed the cut for the Amazon warehouse. That's not a bad bet. You still have the pad and put them on here and there. Me? Yeah. Do you, do you put on the pads? Do you still have pads and like reenact, you know, that time of your life once in a while, the couch, you know, you know, like the little giants when you have the wife hold the, uh, the, the, the couch cushion and then put your right through a window, put them right through the window. Cause you're so scared to move out of the way. Yeah. That happened to me last year when I was cleaning, we were cleaning out some stuff cause we were having a kid and I found my old football helmet and I put

it on for an afternoon and did dad around the house. You know, they let you get the helmet. I just took it. You just took the helmet. Yeah, I actually took a helmet, too. I got a helmet from my days in peewee football. No, it's dumb. Don't lie. You didn't take it. You forgot to bring it back. A thousand percent. They're still looking for you for that hundred dollars.

That is a hundred dollar deposit, dude. So on your voicemail, you said that you were wondering if you could live in any era ever. What would you choose? Is that accurate? That's what you were wondering? Yes. So what would you choose? Okay. So my biggest thing has been the Western days. I feel like the Westerns have really given me, I don't know. I feel like it thing has been the Western days. I feel like the Westerns have really given me, I don't know, I feel like it's inspirational in the Western days. You could be anybody back in those days. You could be a villain, you could be a villain one day and the next day you decide to be the sheriff of the city. It's just the Western days are so, there's

so much options, so many options to live that life. But lately I've been watching a lot of, I'm not going to lie, been watching a lot of the Grease movies, not Sean Travolta Grease, but the Grease 300, all that kind of stuff. So now- What the hell are you talking about? What are you talking about? You know, like when they go into the arena and there's lions and stuff, they have to fight in the arena and they get one little- Like gladiator? ... knife or sword the Greeks not the

Rece see now I get it now. I got g-r-e-a-s-e Is that Greece the gladiator days was that Greece? Roman Roman Coliseum Rome the Roman empire. I think I'll pay Roman. Yes. So now I've been watching those movies lately and I will add those guys died gladiators. They died with honor and respect. Yeah. They were thrown into a pit and laughed upon and treated like animals, but those guys actually died with honor and the situation they were in. And that's the days you were, you know, you were shot and the dog peed on you, you know? So I don't know. It's kind of a, I'm torn between the two now.

Yeah. I mean, the way you describe gladiators, basically you're a modern day gladiator as a ginger, you know, you get thrown in, you get laughed at, you whatever. And then you're someday going to die with honor. Yeah, you're right, man. We're going to buy, you know, you know, we have our own grave site too, right? There's actually a secret grave site where only gingers are buried. It's a myth that people think is a myth, but it's not a man. What's a cemetery called? It is called gingeritis and it's made

to sound like a disease because if it's a disease, nobody's going to want to show up and go visit people there. You know what I mean? So keep the people away and that helps. So the ginger vitus is called the ginger vitus grounds. It also seems like this is sounding sensitive. It seems a little silly to, you know, have a cemetery for just gingers. None of their souls are there. That's true. That's true. That's why we don't put crosses at the grave. We actually put a circle of lemons all the way around each grave because just that's the way our lives were very sour. You know, we never got the satisfaction of anything,

you know, and it says we like to keep everything really just dying on that site. No flowers, no nothing like that. Cause that shows that we had life and we don't got a life like that, you know? So yeah, there was a lot going into that into the thoughts, boldness, the grave site. So guys, so you'd be a, a cowboy or a sheriff or a outlaw or a gladiator. So you want to, Speaker 4. Yes. Yeah. I guess that's a ginger way, man. We were just naturally aggressive creatures. Yeah. I like it. You know, anything that's fun or exciting, we just get amped up and we just overdo it. So that's just, that's just me. I just want. You know, anything that's fun or exciting, we just get amped up and we just overdo it. So that's just, that's just me. I just want to be in the arena, man.

Going crazy. Yeah. I like it. I think I would like to be in Jesus's era. Really? Yeah. What would you be in Jesus's era? Well, so if you think about it, you're like, Hey, the wine was really good. Yeah. You're like, ah, we ran out of beer and you can be like, well, I know a guy, you know, you get born, you get born blind. Yeah. No, I know. You know, you, you die. That's a good guy to know too. Your family's going to be like, we know a guy. Don't worry about it. Listen, but what, what happens when the day comes when he say, you know, that guy used to know, well, you know, something happened. I don't know that guy no more. So, well, no, you can be like, no, he's not dead. Just wait back. Just, you gotta be patient. Give him, give me three days. Hold on. Hold your breath.

You'll be back. You go fishing. You go fishing and you're like, I only got three fish. Hang on one second. Just take that net. Put it on the other side of the boat. Trust me. He said put the net on the other side.

Was he frigging crazy? It's the same drink. Just do it. Holy shit. It was right. Holy shit is Jesus Christ was right. I swear dude. I could just see you hanging out on the boat with Jesus and he pees on one side of the boat and the whole side of the freaking side of the water. He's peeing on just fish galore popping out of water. We love your Jesus. Your pee is cold into us. You're like, you get on the boat and you're like, ah damn

I forgot my net on shore. He's like, don't worry. I'll be right back and just runs over to shore Just like a Jedi just goes up holds his hand up and then just comes to his hand To be in. Except there's one day where you're going to be like, hang on. Yeah. Let me get Jesus for that. Jesus. Where'd Jesus go? Oh, he's in the desert. What the hell is he doing out there? Nobody knows. Yeah. He's just, apparently he's been out there for like 36, 37 days or so. I don't know. It could be a long time. Really? What's he doing out there?

He's talking about working on his band, dude. You're looking kind of pale. He said he needed to get some sun, dude. That's what you needed. What about you, Charlie? Where's your arrow, man? Come on now. Oh, man.

I'd be in the, you know, so it's kind of wild. You think about the first guys who were sailing, you know? And they're like, I think if we just go that way a while, we might run into some mouth or we'll fall off the edge or we'll fall off the edge of the either way. Yeah, let's do it. And whatever we run into, we're just going to say it's America. And yeah, who gives a shit? We got guns. Yeah, we got guns and disease, you know. Hey, gingerbread is all the way, dude, I'm all about it.

We'll spread the love, dude. We will spread the love. Just bring a lot of oranges. That's exactly what I was going to say. You know, the only hole in our plan is we don't, I don't know if we can keep enough oranges for long. Yeah, we really need some citrus. Actually, I actually had a complaint about oranges the other day.

I was going to my, I was going to my nephew's football party, or football games, and the little flag football they got now. And I couldn't believe there was not one orange slice on the field, and I really lost my stuff, man. I said, where the orange slices? I remember that was the halftime gig, man. You get the orange slice from the Capri Sun,

and it was ready for round two. Let's go, I'm ready to hit somebody What are they doing now? They're giving them Oreos Oreos Oreos My mom would have beat my ass if I she saw an Oreo on my hand before dinner She would have whooped my butt man that is very true. Yeah, I can't believe we used to do like

watermelon at t-ball games. Oh yeah. Nice little, nice little slice there. The orange slices. It has the water in it, which is supposed to help you hydrate because kids don't want to drink water. They rather drink all the juices and stuff. So it was made to help us without us knowing it, but I don't know what's going on with these generations anymore, man. It's kind of crazy. We can have a whole nother topic On that yeah, we could I'm honestly surprised that they're even allowing Oreos a lot, you know I'm sure there's some pair there with the yucca app like oh, yeah They're vegan or right. Yeah

They're plant-based Oreos Real milk, okay, that's homemade milk. Yeah, it's almond cream is what it is. It's not real milk, dude. Okay. That's homemade milk. Yeah. It's almond cream is what it is. It's not whatever the cream is made of in real Oreos. I don't know. Like a little sweeter too. You know, those Oreos are sweeter. So, so you'd want to be Ferdinand Magellan just sailing the seven seas. That's kind of cool. I mean, you do think about how crazy that is though. What would be your captain name? You know, you got captain black beard. You got all those would be yours. I'd be captain Chuck, captain Chuck. And I'd have a blue box for sure. I'd have a blue box on there. I'd be like crab

and everywhere we go, we gotta get more crabs for the boo box. You know, but captain the whole friggin' full of crap. We ain't got no workers left. Oh, shit. Dang it. I just, I, yeah, I just, I really liked the captain hook, you know, in the Peter Pan movie and in hook, you know, I was just, he's got, I was just going to say that dude, because captain hooks real name was Killian Jones. And my last name is actually Killian. So in a way, I'm supposed to be a pirate. You're an Armenian with the last name Killian. Uh huh. Irish and Armenian,

Irish and Armenian. All right. Interesting mix. I know people kind of turn their eyes on me like, huh, but I'm a darker, taller, voluptuous gendritis. All right. Yeah. What's your deal? You got a gal? I have a gal, she's standing right next to me. The beautiful soul of my life.

We just spent our four year relationship yesterday. Oh, congratulations. Thank you. Thank you. I'm actually very happy. And we are planning our future and what looks like we'd want to go live on some land and kind of start doing that with our lives. Does she like Wisconsin? Ooh, she doesn't. I don't know how she would do in the cold. She has a lot of cute little outfits, but I don't know. I don't know if they're Wisconsin proof. Also, I like when he was like, I'm really happy. Just sounded like she's standing with a gun to his head as he's talking. It was a 12 gauge, but you know, but it's still scary.

Okay. It's so scary. Yeah, I know. Yeah. You can't move here if she's going to be unhappy. Cause you know, happy wife, happy life, the whole thing. It's true. And honestly, dude, I watch a lot of videos of the snow and stuff out there. I don't know if I could do it after living out here for so long and that much thick of snow every day, having to get your car ready every day, bitching and moaning about snowing again every day, every day. I don't know, man. I love green Bay. I love it. But as far as the city goes, I don't know if I can commit. Well, you'll be fine. Well, the question is, is, do you have commitment issues? Are you

married or are you guys just dating? Yeah. Four years. What's going on? We're dating. Yeah. I know. I know. I had a relationship with that. Oh, it was really, it was really ugly. My last relationship, I don't want to get into details, but it was really ugly. And that was actually the first long-term relationship I've ever been in like seven years and no marriage was in that one, but it was just an ugly thing. And I made a lot of mistakes that relationship, which everyone does as normal. And she made a lot of mistakes also and it happens, but I've just been really, I don't jump into things very quickly anymore. I know four years of a long time, but it takes, I feel like it takes a lot more than four years to get

to know somebody, you know, after four or five years, you know, even just cause you're farting underneath the blankets, you know, it doesn't make you know each other. You know, I, I, okay, you fart, I fart, you know, that's my part of relationship that we need to get comfortable with. Yeah. You need to at least go through like three or four turk, toe curling shits together. You walk in the bathroom and your nose just turns inside out and you're like, Oh my God, I love this woman so much. You know, she is just like me now. Like that's when you know, you're getting closer to your lady, you know, when she's like more like you. Yeah, that's true. And then, yeah, you just eventually form into the same human being

and that's marriage. Exactly. You're starting to look at the same, like, dude, how did you get three pieces of corn and I got three pieces of corn? Like we are meant to be, bro. You know what I mean? Like that is just the way I feel like life has to be. What do you do for work? Are you a salesman? I try doing sales, man. I'm so embarrassed to talk to people. I'm very, when I get warmed up and get knowing people is when you really get to know me, but I'm a very recluse person. I don't go out and communicate. I maybe have a handful of friends that I talk to because I don't trust anybody. Were you a drug dealer? What do you do? I don't sell, man. I'd rather do it. You know, it's a funner

that way. Like selling just, you look at over your shoulder when you do it, you don't have to look over anybody's shoulder. You know, you just sleep. How many times do I have to ask you what you do for a living for you to avoid that? I do a lot of different things at the moment. My last job right now I'm on unemployment because I'm going through a legal circumstances. I don't know. That sounded pretty professional, but legal circumstances. So right now I'm on unemployment, but my, I do have a really big work history. I do a lot of construction. I do a lot of farming. I've dried tractors. So I'm like a Jack of all trades. I guess you could say

my resume is pretty stacked with just a lot of different work. I think I could survive in Wisconsin if I didn't have a family, because I would be able to work my butt off. And I know you guys probably have some good hard workers out there. So I'm an advocate for hard workers and showing up to work and not being lazy and making a life for yourself. But out here in California, it seems like 90% of these people do not want to work and do not want to, you know, have some honor when they die like gladiators.

So I don't know, man. It kind of sucks. Well, listen, we hope that you find a job or a time machine and, uh, can live out, live it out my guy and good luck with the lady, uh, you know, in about two, three, seven years you propose to her and you make, you start having some nice little ginger babies. Oh, I'm going to read the world full of a man. Then they're going to wreak havoc. Just we will run the world one day. We're not there yet. Look, we got close with Trump, right?

He's almost ginger. If you look at his hair, he got a little red in there. So we're getting close, man. We're getting close to rolling the world. We want people of this. We've warned people of this. We warned people of this. We warned them, dude. I like it. All right, man. Well, thanks for calling in today. This was great. And, you know, yeah, just thanks for calling in. This was fun. Yeah, no problem. Thank you guys.

And I'm really I'm so honored to talk to some celebrities online, man. First time ever. And I really hope you guys keep thriving and keep doing good with your business and can't wait to watch more videos of you guys. We appreciate you. My guy you watch for deer out there. Oh, I will man. There's a lot of them. All right guys. All right later. I've never heard it. No one's no one's ever answered you that way. No one's when you said watch out for you. No one said ever said Yeah, there's a lot of them out there Like that dry a sarcasm out the internet gives a lot of shit to people who call themselves

Neurodivergent or what neural divergent or whatever like that's not a real thing. They say that guy might be not a real thing they say that guy might be his brain works in ways that mine can't I know yours is to put a quarter in that guy you know it was great yeah and then he said he's like usually usually not talkative to people he doesn't know I'm like dude you've been fucking going forever that's why I say that guy should get in sales, you know, can probably sell a horse's ass to a fully functioning horse, you know? Yeah. You know?

You know our guy, Mr. Nicolay. Oh yeah. The people's lawyer. The people's lawyer. The insurance company's nightmare. Well, you know what I was talking to him about the other day? What were you talking about?

That people don't think enough about dog bites. That happens. It happens. Conversation. It is. It's a lot. It happens a lot more than people think. Really? Yeah. You ever get bit by a dog miles? I haven't, but I know a guy who did. What happened? I knew another. Oh, the guy, the guy. well, he got bit by a wiener dog. So he decided not to Sue because it's too embarrassed. You can't go out like that. Really? Yeah. So he got bit by a wiener dog. But if you get bit by anything, but a wiener dog, call Nikolai. Well, what if it's a really strong wiener dog? When can you sue after you've gotten bit by a wiener?

You can't buy it. You can't. It's just, you know, you want to go out like that. I want to go out like that. Okay. Well guys, if you've been bit by a dog, you got to call Nikolai Charlie. What if you got bit by a dog? I was just bit by a dog. Really? Yeah. Yeah. Was it a wiener dog? No, uh, when I'm, when I'm, yeah, that was a puppy. I wasn't a dog. It's a puppy. It's just nipping at me, you know, got bought bit multiple times. So you're going to sue your employee. No, I don't think that would look good, but I could, what if I sued my company? Could that get me some insurance?

Now I'm thinking about this, Miles. Well, if you're confused, as a lot of people are when they've been bitten by a dog, call Nikolay, he's gonna be able to answer all your questions. Okay, okay. Give him a call, 1-855-NIKOLAY. Give them a ring. He'll be able to answer all the call. All the questions you have. Hey Russell. Hey man. If my employees little

puppy bit me, could I sue her and therefore sue the company, my company. And if I sued my company, would I come out ahead? Russell, he hung up. yeah. Yeah. Anyways, that's a good thing to know, Miles, because there are a lot of dogs out there. What did you do? Yeah. What did you do when you got bit? What did you say to the dog? I said, oh, sometimes. I was that mean to it. I was a little I laid down the law. Sometimes miles, I will say a dog's bark is bigger than its leash.

But other times, a dog's leash is longer than his bite. And when the dog's leash is longer than his bite, it's time for you to fight. And that is when you call Nikolai ladies and gentlemen, one eight five five Nikolai. Hello, this is Sally. Hi, Sally. This is miles and Charlie from the bellied up podcast. Hello. How's it going, Sally? You having a good day? Yeah, I'm having a great day. How are you guys doing? Great. Bellied up to the bar. Yeah, I hear you have got some resolutions you want to chit chat about. One of the things I want to accomplish is using chopsticks a little bit more.

You got a chopstick ambition, Sally. You woke up 2024 and you're like, you know what? 2025, that's going to be the year of the chopsticks. But the thing is, that's right. But it's not even to learn year of the chopsticks. But the thing is, that's right. But it's not even to learn how to use chopsticks. It's just to use them a little bit more. Actually, I have to learn how to use them in the first place. Oh, okay. I found a couple of sets in the, in the junk drawer and that's what really inspired me to say,

hey, these are a little dusty, maybe they're under the set of keys that I don't even know what the hell the keys are for. We got some batteries in here and shit like that. I'm like chopsticks. This is good. And I wanna use them for various foods, not just Chinese.

I mean Korean barbecue. You know I'm like they're going to waste here in the junk drawer. Let's get some good chopsticks and learn how to use them. I'm very proud of you. I mean that's not the typical New Year's resolution we hear. What's been, had you look up a YouTube video on how to properly use chopsticks or did you find a friend? No, I just found the chopsticks in my junk drawer.

That's the whole story here, huh? That's about it. Now since then, we've had a lot of leftovers in the fridge. So we haven't ordered Chinese food. So, you know, don't have any soy sauce in the cover, but, but yeah, I that's, that's one of my new year's resolution. And I have all year long. It's not, it's not like I have to use them by January 13th. You know, I have them. I have them. And that's the first step.

Well, and honestly, the first couple of months is all mental work anyways. You know, you got to be, you're thinking about how you're going to attack it. What's the first food you're going to try with it. I have a very similar New Year's resolution. I want to solve in a Rubik's cube without any help whatsoever.

So in the corner. Yeah, I'm going to put myself in a room by yourself in the corner. Yep. Yep. By miles. Wow. That's impressive miles. I don't know what's harder to figure out the chopsticks or a Rubik's Cube because everyone can kind of use chopsticks, but to use them the way they're

supposed to be used? I don't even know if I'm using chopsticks. You want to know what my wife does with chopsticks? Does she poke it? What does she do? She, you know like the wood ones come where like you break them apart? Yeah. She doesn't break them apart, she just separates them a little bit and just pinches stuff. And just pinches it? Oh that's a cheater. I know. That's a cheater there. My first step with choppies is I'm going to move them. I'm going to move them from the junk drawer. I've already done this step. I moved them from the junk drawer two sets to the drawer with the spoons and the knives and the forks. So you look at them every time you want to eat, every time you're reminded, hey, I got a year to figure out this whole chopstick thing.

Mm-hmm. Correct. That's very ambitious. Do you have a... They're still wrapped in that paper, so I mean they're still clean. Take the next step today, take that paper off. Hey, don't rush her. Don't rush her. I'm not trying to rush her, but for God's sakes, we're months into the year now. It's time to take off the gloves. Okay, all right. All right.

A little tough love from Barron's over here. I'm just telling you. Wow. You want me to use chopsticks with a glove? Oh gosh. That's not going to come till like October or November. Is that what I heard you say? No, I said, take that. Well, yeah, you, I, I would like to see you just add a tailgate wearing gloves, using your chopsticks on some communal food there. That'd be great. I mean, honestly, this is something

that would crush on TikTok. You just go like day one of attempting to learn how to use chopsticks. And then it's you just fumbling with them and not being able to use them. And then by day 40, you got it down and then people lose their mind on it. Here's what would be funny.

If you're tailgating and you're wearing the snow gloves and you're at the Green Bay Packer Stadium, you're using drumsticks for chopsticks. Oh yeah, yeah, that would be funny. How are you gonna? I don't know. No, I like it too. Don't lose faith in that idea,

that's a good bit right there. Yeah, you got the big gloves on, you know, the insulated ones and you got some drumsticks, that's fun. Correct. That's Good. I like what you're doing there. Do you have an idea? Do you have an idea in your mind? The first food you're going to attempt this with, or are you just going to let it happen? Well, it's not going to be Cheerios. I'll pay that much. Right now. That was, that was what I was going to say. That was what I was gonna suggest was Cheerios. Okay, well that's off my list.

What else are you thinking? I'm thinking cubes of chicken and some broccoli. Mm, yeah, very good. Why do they call it chopstick? You don't really chop with them. You ever think about that, Miles? You can stab they could be stabbed. They're really like they're They're they're holding sticks really

Beginner move you separate the wooden chopsticks you stab your chicken chopsticks, you stab your chicken. That's not using chopsticks. No, they're not stabbing sticks. But what I'm saying is you're not chopping with the damn sticks either. Right. Like you're not chopping your broccoli. You're kind of chopping a little bit. In my thing, Miles chopping with pinch. Yeah. They're pinch sticks. They're pinch sticks. Yeah. Cause chop would mean something gets divided into two. Right. You think it's like that they're, you're pinch sticks. They're pinch sticks. Yeah, because chop would mean something gets divided into two, right? You think it's like that they're you're correct. Do you think that they're chops of like bamboo? Oh, that could be it

Like they like chop it and then make them into the sticks. It's also translated from Chinese or Japanese or right? So maybe the You know, it's probably some I want to figure out Hey Can we figure out why they call chopsticks chopsticks? What are you doing on your phone over there? texting his girlfriend all fucking day Girlfriend on the job. Yeah Jake is take how long you been dating her?

Say that again. Come from calling them chop chop. They come from calling them chop like chop chop. Cheerio. He is. He's been no help. Did you just Google it? Is that what the, the AI on Google says? Cause that's all right. Anyways, you keep digging on that. So you're going with cubes of chicken. I don't like that. No, no, I just changed my mind. I'm going

with deep fried cheese curds. There we go. Once I learn how to use chopsticks, my first food, my very first food after practice will be a deep fried cheese curd culvers and I'm going to dip it. Oh, wow. Okay. You're getting crazy. It's ambitious. Is this your only new year's resolution? No, I had another one, but I forgot what it was. Oh, I remember. Yeah, I remember too. I kind of forgot like what I call it. Cause it was like back in January when I got, I think it was like to not use vacation time or PTO. That's not what you said. What did she say? Oh wait, maybe.

Uh, no, no, that's not, you want to learn how to moonwalk Sally. That was, that was the other one. That was the other one. Yeah. Cause I couldn't remember for the life of me when I finally got your text message and I was like, Holy smokes. I did call in about two new year's resolutions and I remembered the chop chopsticks and I couldn't remember the first one. I was like, was it not to use PTO or was it to learn how to moonwalk? And then I came to me the other day and then I second guessed myself. But anyway, yeah, yeah, that's my next. That's my number two resolution. Yeah, I'll refresh your memory. You said that you got a wedding

invite. Actually, you got a save the date magnet for your fridge that's overkill and you said holy smokes I have to learn how to moonwalk is what he said and you said I want to be the cool aunt who can do the moonwalk on the dance floor at the reception. Well, there you have it. I got to be honest with you, Sally, if you can both moonwalk and use chopsticks, I mean, you're going to have a whole different life ahead of you. And that's a full twenty twenty five right there.

Yeah. New doors will start opening up. If you can laugh, use chopsticks and moonwalk in a day. That's a full day. That's what Jimmy V said. And I do have my step, my step number one on the moonwalk is I got the Michael Jackson Thriller album vinyl for my record player. All right. And so I got that. Have you listened to it yet? Oh, heck yeah. Okay. All right. Well, I got a pretty sweet record collection going on right now. And I listened to it now. What I also have is a hardwood floor in my kitchen. And that is my surface. I'm looking at the surface and I'm

I'm playing Michael Jackson on the on the record. And I'm just, what I'm doing is I'm, you start, you just walk backwards. So you just try that out and then you get out of your, then you get on socks and then then you get on socks and then, then you want backwards and socks and you just build on it. You just build on it. You just start walking backwards. And before you know it, it's walk backwards question mark moon landing. Smiley face.

I like, I like how much mental prep work you do in this. Yeah. First it's just looking at the chopsticks in the paper. Then she's going to open it up and look at the chopsticks raw. Just like that. She puts the record player on. She's just getting a feel for the surface that she's going to be moonwalking on. I liked that looking at the surface. She's got her socks on. I don't think rushing the process. I don't think anyone would accuse you of jumping in head first. I don't think. And then when you're looking at the surface, you're thinking, Oh my gosh, I should probably Swiffer sweep that before I put on a fresh pair of socks and walk backwards. Yeah. But the dust is

going to help you slide better. So that's maybe, Oh, that's a good point. Good point there. I mean, if it's going to be an immovable object meeting an unsolvable force in 2026, when your new year's resolution is learn how to dive head first into something into the water, it's going to be, he's got to dive head first. Hey, don't count your chickens before their hatch because we don't have any here. We're not talking about point 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20,

Well, you want to remember it. You put it on the beer fridge. So you're using that way more. Um, one thing before we move on from the moonwalking, uh, you might want to rest your Michael Jackson record for a sec. There's a Drake song where he actually explains how to do the moonwalk in the lyrics. You guys remember that? No. Jake, what song is that? No. When Drake tells you how to moonwalk

in the song. Drake. Yeah. He's like right foot up, left foot slide, left foot up to see slide. Oh, I remember that. Yeah. You didn't realize that he was just explaining how to do the moonwalk. No, I did not. Are you guys Jones and me? I'm not. I realize that. I don't think that's how you use Jones. And so right foot up, left foot side. Okay. You're literally moonwalking Charlie. I know it's not the cupid shuffle because I tried that many a times at my, on my niece's weddings. The cupid shuffle is not how they explain how to do the moonwalk.

I got news for you. I got news for you. I just, uh, Charlie just moonwalked with my direction. Yep. Actually Drake's direction you. I just, uh, I only just moonwalked with my direction. Yep. Actually. Drake's direction, but I'm, I'm already beating you on your new year's resolution, Sally. It's time to get in the game. All right. We're three months into this year. Let's start shaking off the dust, cracking the chopsticks. I'm your motivator here.

I love that. And I love your inspiration and I love you guys. Listen to you all the time. Charlie, I've met you in real life a few times. I've been to six of your shows. Miles, I listen to your podcast. I'm a patron right now. Just keep on doing what you're doing. You guys make people laugh and the world's not a fun place a lot of times, but if we

can listen to you and love you up and you make everyone laugh. So I don't know. I'm getting corny now, but that's all I have to say about that. No, Sally. Thank you. Thanks for that. That's way too many of my shows for you to come to. My God, I got to get you free tickets at some point.

No, you don't, because one of them was an accident. Oh, yeah. OK. Do we have any time? OK, we do. You can edit this or whatever. So last year, I went to see you in Bowler, Wisconsin. Yeah. At the casino. Got tickets. I asked my husband to buy them for me for a super early birthday present. And he was like, okay. And so by the

time I booked my tickets, the casino was out of rooms. And this is such a long story, but I'm going to cut to the chase how I got to, okay. we had to like book a book, a hotel like 40 minutes away and we weren't going to drink and drive. And the hotel we stayed at had like, it was like owned by Amish people, this, that, and the other. And I'm just not going to get into it too much, but so when, okay. I, I can go on and on about the story. It was like the most craziest night of all.

But the reason I said part of the crazy part is I got to see you twice that night because I got tickets for the 10th 30 show and we went to go get some merchandise before that show. No, I got tickets some merchandise before that show. No, I got tickets for the 630 show. And anyway, so we got to see the 630 show and it was great. And we had great seats, got some merch, blah, blah, blah. I'm walking out of the venue, into the casino. And this lady grabs me by the hand from behind,

pressing by the wrist, and she's like sixty-twelve, older lady, and turns out her name is Brenda. And she's like, hi, I, me and my wife bought tickets for this show and for the 1030 show, but my wife is too drunk to go to the 10th or the show. So I put her in bed. Will you come to the 10th or the show? I'm just grabbing you out of the blue, you know? And my husband is a few steps forward. And you know, he stops, he turns around,

he's easy talk to this nice older lady, not hearing the conversation. So I'm like, I'm like, okay. And she gives me the tickets and she's like, let me back here. And she's drunk. Sounds like it. I'm like, okay. So I go back like it. I'm like, okay.

So I go back to Sean and I'm like, you'll never guess what? This really nice lesbian gave me a ticket to the 10thirties show. I got that again. He's like, are you sitting here? I'm like, no, here's a ticket. All right, so we go gamble.

In the meanwhile of gambling before the 10th-30th show, I see, are you sitting down? I picture Charlie standing up. I see Miles sitting down right now. I was standing up. I sat down right before you said that though. I see Grandma Sue. Oh, you saw my grandma Sue? In the casino with her beautiful white hair and a little team of people around her. And I'm like, are you kidding? I'm trying to find my husband because he wanted it in the casino, not knowing that I got a

free ticket. And on the way to find my husband, I see grandma Sue and she has a little team of people around her. And you know, and I wasn't, and she has little people, team of people around her and you know, and I wasn't, I wasn't speaking. I wasn't anything, but I'm like, that is grandma stool. Your grandma's got a posse. She was, she's got a whole team.

My grandma was gambling up a storm that night. She won $1,800 I think. I think that was the night after she lost all our money, but you found her there. And then what happened? I didn't see a word. I didn't see a word, but I saw the posse as, as we did. And I'm like, you know, I'm like, kind of like keeping my distance. I'm like, oh, she is. Oh my gosh. I love her so much. I've seen her in so many pots,

you know, and I was never going to say anything, but she found her flat machine and sat down and I walked behind and I was looking, but I wasn't looking and it wasn't creeping, but it was creeping. But you know, and I just, why I'm like, Oh my gosh, my night is a hundred percent fulfilled. You were stalking my grandma. And so and so instead of going to the 10 30 show, you watched Picasso paint at the slot machine and she just put on a show and won $1,800 in front of you. No, I didn't watch her. I was on my way to find my husband to let him know I got a free ticket to the 10th 30 show and I saw grandma Sue on the way. She didn't say hi or nothing. Okay. So it's not over yet. So I get to the 10th 30 show and

Brenda is waiting there for me. It's right. Like we said, she's even drunker now and we want to get to the 10th 30 show and her seats were better than mine. I mean, there's not a bad seat in the house. Her seats were better than mine at the 10th or the show. So I'm like talking to her and I'm, and she's, I'm trying to talk to her and stuff. And, you know, I'm just like, Oh my God, Charlie's so close. This is so great. Um, and I looked over at one time and Brenda is tipped back. Her neck is tipped back and her mouth is a cape. Brenda's snoring. I'm like, Jesus Christ Brenda. I'm thinking to myself, I am your second date because your first wife is like too drunk to attend this show. And you're staying in the casino. Like

Jesus Christ. So I put her to sleep. I put Brenda to sleep. Huh? She, no, it wasn't you. It must have been the Charlie Baron brandy. I don't know. Oh my God, that's hilarious. OK, well then I got to get Brenda back to Cindy. So what, you fireman carried her through the casino or what? I just left her. I said, huh? You just left her. I know I stayed for the whole show, but of course it was going to, but then it was like, okay, how am I going to get Brenda back to her wife? It was too

drunk for me. So I got it back to her. Oh, go ahead. It could have been, it could have been a weekend at Bernie situation. You've got to put some sunglasses on her and put her at the door. Yeah. I didn't know what her room number was and her name. And so I kind of like wake her up and she cut. I take her by the hand, you know, my, my wife, get her back to room five Oh six for banging on the door. Cindy opens it up. You guys are banging on the door. Wasn't me. I had to be responsible. I mean, Jesus Christ, she gave me a free ticket to the Charlie bearer

show. It's like, you know, pass it on kindness kind of a thing. Get her back to the freaking hotel room that her wife is at and she answers the door, now she's drunk again. I'm like, can you just take her? I said, here you go. All right. So then I got back down to the casino, found my husband back down at the casino, found my husband, and I didn't even tell you about the ride. The ride from this awful hotel that we were at was like 40 minutes long. Hubby couldn't find an Uber in Bowler, Wisconsin to get us to the casino in the first place. It was like a 30, 40 minute ride. So he finally finds some people that are not Uber, but they do kind of taxi cab, but they weren't that night of Charlie's shows. And he finally, he finally finds one and they Uber us back, back and forth to

the casino and their cab smelled like the devil's lettuce like you wouldn't believe. Like they had gone to the farmer's market and beyond. So we hopped into Uber in Bowler, Wisconsin for like 40 bucks to get us to the casino in the first place to see Charlie. My husband's like, oh, I just don't, I don't, the devil's here. I guess I just don't, you know, I'm like, okay, you know, we're at the farm. And I'm like, they're getting us there safely. Okay. They agree to pick us up on the way back. So after I bring Brenda to Cindy, I find my husband back in the casino. I'm like, okay, let's call that Uber people, whatever,

to get back to the hotel. And he said, okay. And so we hop in the car, they showed up. And lo and behold, they had been grocery shopping again at the farmer's market. And we get back to the hotel and my husband is passed out on the window with his cheek like this and his mouth is like that. Once again, I was like, thank you for the safe ride. And I have to like help them across the page.

It's like my job was done. So anyway, it was a great night. Yeah. Sounds like it. My gosh. I think your husband got a great night. Yeah. Sounds like it. My gosh. Think your husband got a little contact. Hi there on the way back. Well, thanks for coming to see the show twice.

My God. Six times, six times, but twice that night. Really? Oh yeah. At the a wild center, huh? Yep. That's the file center and that one, not break. I did bring a Charlie Barron's version.

She drove in from Beaver Graham to see your show with me and she, yep. That's my best friend. I didn't know what they called them. I lost my Charlie Barron's virginity in, was it 2022? Maybe when we first met. Yeah. No, no, no. 2019 I didn't see a show for a couple of years. Oh, when you saw the show. Yeah.

That's what a Charlie Barron's Virgin is. I thought you meant when we met miles did time on my show. Tell miles. He should do standup. I want to tell miles so bad that he wants to do that. He should do standup. Yeah. I would go see, uh, I listened to the you betcha radio all the time. And you're so damn funny. You're so great at impromptu. Both of you choose. So you do that if you feel comfortable with it, you know, keep making the world laugh. Yeah.

I like to spend too much time at home to be a standup comedian. Yeah. Well, you kind of have a different lifestyle and that's a good thing too. You know? Yeah. Yeah. It's a good thing to miles. All right. I just, well, we better slap the knee. I want you guys to want to go on. I mean, I got time. I took PTO this afternoon, just raised home and talk to you guys. So much for that resolution. I went, I went way bad on that. Oh no. I like, I like you calling and you say your new year's resolutions. And then we're like, what was that second? New year's resolutions? Like, Oh yeah, I remember it. It was something that you didn't

say at all. You're just bullshitting us this whole time. Did you ever do effectively do a new year's resolution Sally? I resoluted to put chapstick on more often. Yep. Yep. And also, also, this is a really bad one, but this is one I absolutely stick to, um, is to not litter car windows you And that that one came oh back in frick Well, so talk to that one In 2011 you were just launching garbage out the window. Well, that was before recycling was cool. You know what? I'm going to do that.

My New Year's presently. New Year's present. Well, I'd like to all the resolutions are just like, it's either like something that normal people just do all the time or it's like, yeah, my new resolution for 2025 is just to not commit any crimes. If I can just stay out of jail, it's going to be a good year. Like, no, my new year's resolution for 2025, it's like, like more magnets. I really need to do that. Just stuff doesn't stay on her fridge. You know, she tries to put stuff up there.

She doesn't have enough magnets. Well, Sally, listen, this has been a lot of fun. Thank you for, um, Thank you for enlightening us. Well, you're welcome. Really glad talking to you guys. Hey, Charlie. Yeah. Not to beg or anything,

but I am done with my very first bottle of Charlie Baron's brandy. Oh, you want another bottle? Hubby brought it home for Valentine's day. My first bottle ever. It wasn't at the normal discount liquor store that I go to, but he found it at festival here in Sheboygan and he brought it home for Valentine's day with flowers. And I was like, I am putting this in the booth cabinet and I'm not going to touch it. You drink a bottle of Baron's

brandy in five days. It is delicious. It is so delicious. And I have this teeny tiny glass that says, Oh, and so that's how I taste tested it. So we were in Valentine's day in the area. You guys, but I would love an autograph bottle of, of probably Barron's Brandy. Hey, you've been to six shows. I don't have George. I don't have George Clooney autographed tequila. Like my old, I mean, what, what was Ied tequila. Like my old friend. So. I mean, what was I supposed to do? That's all I had on me when I ran into Clooney, was a tequila bottle.

And it's why, yeah, I felt bad. That friend was standing there not signing the bottle. So I had him sign it too. Well, Sally, we're going to get to your address. We're going to send you an autographed bottle of that brandy. All right. Awesome. I'll keep it forever. Thanks, guys. All right. Let it last more than five days this time.

Okay, I'll try. You know, next year's resolution. Make a break. A ball of brandy last six days. Thank you, Sally. We appreciate you. Yeah. You too. Good watch for dear. I have so many things to say. Number one, you gotta use, you gotta have her record your intro to you going on stage. I don't think I'd ever get on stage. No, no. I mean how Midwest her accent. Oh my God. PTO. It was just, it was, it was butter. It was perfect. Yeah. She's great. You know, Oh, Hey there folks, Charlie burns. I love how would she was talking about that casino? She said three times she was just going to give us the short version of that. She spent more than any time

someone says, I'll just do the short version. You know, it's not going to be the short version. So I buckled in. Yeah, we sure did. Wow. Well, miles, if we had more time, I would have definitely asked her about that Amish hotel and what was going on there, but we should have. But there was so much other stuff to process that she was getting a horse and buggy ride to the casino. Always she was talking about it. Instead, she got a horse and buddy. Marijuana. Well, miles, there we have it. Another case of the bellied up closed at the old town tavern. Here in Appleton, Wisconsin. My first time in Appleton, by the way. You like it?

Your guys, if you're looking for a good bar in Appleton, you got to come to Old Town Tavern to great spot. You're looking for a good bar in Appleton. You got to come to Old Town Tavern. It's a great spot. They have
