Bellied Up - The Ultimate Midwest Airplane #160
Episode Date: July 17, 2025In this episode, we take a call from a Midwest aviation fan asking about essential tips for flying in the region. Another caller opens up about handling a strange coworker and wondering if it’s time... to propose to his girlfriend. Then we play a funny voicemail from a listener who's scared to touch the thermostat when his dad's around.We played Jazz music instead of the voicemail at the 2:45 mark. We legally can not play the voicemail. Do not write phone numbers on public walls.

Hey guys, welcome to another episode of the Bellied Up.
My name is Charlie Barons.
I'm here with Miles, the You Bet You Guy.
We're having fun here.
It's a good time.
It's 1 10 in the afternoon.
We are bellied up to the bar.
We are here to take your calls,
chit chat with you, see what's happening.
I'm excited, Miles.
And you know, you know how you know a good a good dive bar
is they don't cover up the writing on the wall in the bathrooms.
They don't waste their time. It's part of the it's part of the ambience.
It's part of the experience.
So you saw what I saw in the bathroom.
Did you see it? Yeah.
What did it say?
I believe the writing on the wall.
This is the writing on the wall for us, Charlie.
Glad that we both saw this it said
Send you send pics of your shit
And also also they meant like why wouldn't you say send shit pics yeah you get the you get the alliteration
You know shorter easier to comprehend
That is diabolical. So some guy put his buddy's phone number on the wall and told him to send
pictures of people's poop also. And like, that's way worse than call for a good time.
Right. Right. Right. Cause call for a good time. They may just be like, Hey, what are
you doing? But you're just getting photos of people's shit directly to your phone.
You know that there are plenty of fellows out there who have taken a picture
of a real good shit and have just been waiting for this moment.
I have a friend who's done that.
I have a friend who has a collection of his. He might
do videos with me fairly often. He might be our bartender on bellied up live.
Oh, really?
Holy deuce.
Well, he lives up to the name, I suppose.
He's got a whole folder on his phone. I wonder how many people have actually sent pictures.
That is that you that's classic, uh, your single buddy behavior.
Yeah.
You want to know how, you know, he's doesn't, you know, he's not locked down
is cause he has a folder on his phone of all of his shit.
It's like, what is your single friend doing on a Tuesday evening?
He's taking photos of his shit.
He's got a collection.
Yeah.
I mean, that's, that would suck to be that phone number.
It would.
I wonder what it's like, you know. Yeah. I mean, that's, that would
suck to be that phone number. It would. I wonder what it's like, you know, to like have
that number on the wall and yeah. Okay. Let's just, let's just call them and we'll see if
they want us to take the number down. Yeah. Okay. But we'll ask. We will ask. Okay. They're
going to hang up immediately calling
You take this. I want you to nervous, dude
They put someone poor poor, poor lady, poor woman. What did I was fully expecting a college dude.
They put someone's aunt on there. What did this woman do to deserve that? She must have
someone's aunt or someone's eighth grade teacher. It's one or the other. Oh, that is unfortunate.
Oh man. We should have left a voice. Be honest. feel too bad. I was upset when you turned your mic off. I thought you were going to take the wheel on this one.
Anyways, guys, don't do that. Don't do that to someone else. Actually, if it's your buddy,
do it to your buddy. Don't do it to your aunt. I wonder what she did, though.
She had to do some. She did. I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean that to someone else. Actually, if it's your buddy,
do it to your buddy. Don't do it to your aunt. I wonder what she did though. She had to do
something. She had to have done something. Yeah. I, I just can't think of many things
worse. Would you rather get unsolicited dick pics from that or unsolicited shit pics from
the bathroom? Dick pics for sure. Yeah. I mean, I'm, I'm not like in, but I can admire, you of the It's a pumpkin. Check it out. Like that's how I'm going to carve my pumpkin. Isn't that
great? It looks like a little pumpkin. Doesn't it? Yeah. Yeah, it does. Are you upset that
I brought this up? Why was I being too, I mean, we're talking about ship picks on bathroom
wall. I can't like change the subject. It's actually kind of funny if you're an electrician
to just carve your pumpkin and make it look like an outlet. You know, that's great. That's great. Yeah. It's actually a great marketing
campaign during Halloween for, for an electrical company. Should we do a billboard this Halloween
and just set it and put, put her number on it, you know, cause we would change it up.
You know, you're getting ship picks. We got flood the zone with some mouse, you know? Anyways, just thoughts, just thoughts. Well, what do you think? Hey,
you want, Hey, we were a little negative with stuff to put on your bathroom wall there that
didn't go the way we want to do. What's something you appreciate seeing on a bathroom wall?
I like it when people are interacting with each other. So one guy leaves a note
and then someone else responds and then another firm responds. Even if it's mean to each other,
I just like that camaraderie. The guys are talking through the bathroom wall. Yeah. It's
kind of like the original Twitter thread, you know? It's true. And then I got to start
writing a retweet next to stuff on the bathroom wall. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Or do a little thumbs up next to it. Yeah.
There is one thing written right over the urinal.
It says go, go exclamation point, exclamation point.
And in the middle, the the drywall is chipped away.
So we're in Chicago.
Someone obviously wrote go pack, go and then
show I liked that next piss. I got to take, I'm going to refill in what was taken down.
Yeah. What do you think? I wouldn't know, but our girls writing stuff on the bathroom
walls in there. I've heard, I've actually talked to some women women Believe or not dude. I've talked to a woman
Not to brag I've had some chit chats with some members of the opposite sex and they say that
What's on the bathroom wall actually I was talking to Miranda about this and she said that it's very uplifting
Really? Yeah, it's like you go girl. Like you got push harder.
Yeah, you know, grip that toilet seat.
No, it's not potty humor. Miles. It's more like you get it.
He's not worth you. You know, really? Yeah, it's like it's
very affirmation, very self-helpy stuff. Why don't you go
check it out right now? No one's in there. I'll guard the I walk in, you're standing there as soon as the door closed, you walk away and just be like, yeah, it's open. Yeah. But I've heard of ladies. Maybe this is a call out. We want to know what's on your
bathroom stall. Like Yas queen sleigh. Yeah. Stuff like that. Actually, this would be,
this would be a great thing. We should ask you guys, if you guys see some good stuff
from the show, we'll be happy to help you. We'll Stuff like that. Actually, this would be, this would
be a great thing. We should ask you guys, if you guys see some good stuff written on
a bathroom wall, guys or gals send it out over to us, tweet us at bellied up. We'll
we'll read it. That's our new segment. The writing on the wall, the writing on the wall.
Yeah. We want, we want to know the best things you've seen on the bathroom wall. That's what
we want to send them to send them into the Instagram account. Yeah. We want to know the best things you've seen on the bathroom wall. That's what we want to. Yeah, we want to send them into the Instagram account.
Yeah, we want to bring it to light.
Yeah.
All right, well, should we take some colors, Miles?
We should, Charlie. Let's do it.
Caleb, how you doing?
Good, how you guys doing?
Good, welcome to the Bellied Up Podcast.
We hear you are trying to make an airplane.
Is that correct?
That would be correct.
Yeah.
Crazy bastard, Caleb, you're gonna make it?
Yeah, do explain.
That's one thing that I would want factory settings on.
So, you know, it's actually pretty common.
I mean, you guys, I mean, Charlie,
you're from with what's happening, right? I love, like, if you are in the industry, it's pretty common. I mean, you guys, I mean, Charlie, what's happening, right? I love like if you are in the industry, it's
pretty common. Yeah. Well, you, you guys are up near the area
of Oshkosh, right? With the EAA there. Yeah. That's the
experimental airplane show. They have it every year. People
die every year from some kind of mess up on the personal airplane. The wild thing
about making your own airplane is you're not only risking your life, but everybody below
use life to do it. But no, it is, you know, there's a risk. It's a cool show though. I
mean, they have some really wild planes there every year. People should check that out if
they can.
But go on, do tell what's going on. So it's a, it's a common thing to build your own airplane.
Well, I mean you have, you have a couple of different options and the experimental kind
of opens up to, you know, everything from, from straight wooden fabric airplanes, the
aluminum to composites. And so what I'm putting together is a
aluminum airplane, 31 foot wingspan. When it's all said and done, it'll have
a seat for people have about a thousand mile range and just be a good thing
that cruise around and go on some vacations with. Wow. Okay. So you have
three people that are willing to risk their life to go in your airplane.
He's got three seats.
I've got I've got a waiting list.
Yeah. You know, when it's done here in a few years, I got some people here who are
itching to get up and go. Okay.
All right. How much does it cost to make an airplane like that?
It's not the cheapest hobby in the world, uh, but you, it has all different, all different
ranges depending on how much work you want to put into it.
Uh, so if you want, if you want an airplane that's pretty much already built, you're just
kind of bolting together the last couple of pieces.
Uh, you're gonna pay a pretty penny for that, but, uh, if you're gonna go to the other end
of the spectrum and all you get is a set of plans and you're doing everything from scratch, it can actually be pretty cheap,
cheaper than a cheaper than a new car.
All right. So we're talking like what? 25, 30 grand. I know as you're avoiding telling
me the price tag is your wife going to listen to this?
No, no, I'm single. So I'm not out. No, no married guy is getting the green light on building his own airplane for $30,000.
No, I mean, I'm hoping to have it done for about 250 all of a sudden done $250,000.
Yeah.
Yeah, pretty much. Are you going to be like flying to Columbia with that thing?
How are you?
Are you gonna get an ROI?
Could be an option.
How are you funding this, man?
What do you do?
We're all working in manufacturing.
Yeah, oh, you work in manufacturing?
The way you just said that,
it sounds like you work for the mafia. What do you work in manufacturing the way you just said that it sounds like you work for the mafia. What, what are you doing? Manufacturing that you're
no, I run a, I run a manufacturing team that makes parts for turbine engines for airplanes.
Okay. All right. That helps. It helps the situation. Boeing airplanes. Some, some of
the engines go there. Yeah. Some of the engines go Yeah. Some of it's about half commercial half military.
All right. I got a question unrelated to your airplane about the airplane industry. And
this may upset you. It may not, but there's a lot of murmurs on the internet talking about
how it seems like airport airplanes have more
issues with them today. There's more breakdowns. There seems to be more mishaps and negligence
and more plane problems these days. Is it because we have more plane problems or is
it because we have social media? So we find out about every single time there's
an airplane with a mishap?
Yeah, it's definitely just more publicized.
If you run the numbers, I mean, every accident is recorded.
And so if you run the numbers from both commercial and then private aviation, there have been
fewer and fewer crashes every year, fewer and fewer incidences,
runway incursions, take your pick, fewer and fewer instances each year. Just, you know,
our news cycle here is pretty, pretty active. And once you get one, you know, we talk about
airplanes for a few months and then they'll go away for a while and then get real popular
again. So people are just more interested in now, I guess.
Yeah. Okay. That's was my hunch. You know,
you wouldn't think with all the regulations around airplanes that it would
be gaming becoming less safe. So just why it's good to know.
I mean, the good,
the amount of of safety checks and and all the paperwork and certifications that
all the individual parts go through and then the assemblies and then the airplanes themselves,
uh, airplanes are safer than they've ever been. All right. Well, hang on, hang on a second.
Journalist Barron's over here. We come up with something doing a little Googling and it says year deaths number of instances. 2024 there were 30 deaths,
416 instances. As of 2025, there's 122 deaths. That's the of June 12th. So it looks like 2025 has not been a great year for airline instances.
Still relatively small percentage. I'll give you that,
but it does seem like there's an uptick in the rise of at least the dad.
That just means we have to have a strong second half.
Not going to lie. They had us in the first half.
A good halftime speech, you know, regroup guys.
Let's not put it in the dirt this time.
Let's not forget to put the landing gear this half.
What when do they make sure all the tires are inflated?
What's the biggest problem?
What relating to these crashes?
What's what's the thing that goes wrong the most?
Is it mechanical failure?
Is it pilot failure?
What is it?
It's a tough question because each one can be a little bit different.
And I honestly haven't
done too much research into the causes of these.
You might want to do some research if you're going to fly your own plane. Learn from other
people's mistakes though.
Oh, I mean, part of it. I mean, that's part also the experience of building your own is,
you know, I'm going to have, I'm going to have physically touched and worked on every,
every square into this airplane. So I know this, this thing inside and out, um, it's going to be put together correctly. There's not going to
be any flaws, but I'm just going to fix them right away. So I know I'm going to
be the one flying it.
That's yeah. Yeah.
They, is this your first airplane that you've built?
Yeah. I mean, it's, it's, I've been working on it for a couple of years. I
still probably have about six, seven years left to go on it.
And yes, this is going to be my first one.
But I'm also a certified aircraft mechanic, so I have worked on general aviation planes.
This is going to be the first one I'm building myself.
I like it.
Yeah, you get your reps in when someone else is flying in that thing.
That would be my...
I'll tell you what, it's scary seeing some of the things that are out there that some
of the private owners try to do and sneak through and you catch them in inspections.
Oh really?
Yeah. Like, like gutting the airplane and filling it with drugs, you know?
They try to tend to remove those prior to inspection, but you know, you never know what you find
What's the wildest thing you've seen in an expect and in a inspection?
I've seen you know tools left over from the previous guy, which is never a good thing
Like they love the time in the engine or something like that
Inside the wing
In the way engine or something like that. Like floating around inside the wing, screwdriver in the wing.
It's like clinking going on out there.
You know, a garden hose used for some conduit and stuff like that.
And then there's a there's a lake cabin on our lake where one of the guys
was DIY finishing the cabin and the plumbing he used underneath the cabin.
He used a garden hose.
Are you serious?
Yup.
That's like when I popped open the hood on my Volkswagen rabbit and there's a bungee
cord holding, you know, they're next to my parents' cabin and we didn't have the heart
to tell them about all the problems that the guy, the previous owner, Oh, you say, well, you should have an inspector do that. Correct. And I think what they told
us was that the inspector came in the winter and so he didn't like get underneath the house.
They did find the garden hose later. Yeah. Well, hopefully you got a good deal on it.
I don't think they do.
All right. All right. Well, okay. So you're building your own airplane. What's your question with your airplane then?
So one of the beauties of building an experimental
is that you get to pretty much customize it to what you want.
And just looking for some of your guys and insights. If I
wanted to be traveling around the Midwest and showing off some of the, uh,
great aspects of the country there, what Midwestern things and accessories
can I throw on this airplane?
You gotta put more cup holders. Yeah. Yeah. And that's no one's ever bought a car and been like, God, I hate how many
cup holders are in this thing. Yeah.
It's always where are all the cup holders? Right.
But do not drink beer in that airplane.
You don't want to get a no fly.
Got it. Got it.
You know, it's kind of hard to pull over up there.
Yeah, it's true. Yeah. How do. Got it. Hey, it's kind of hard to pull over up there.
It's true. Yeah. How do you get pulled over? Are there police airplanes?
No, you just, uh, they wait till you land and then they, uh,
then they tend to yell at you once you, uh, stop the airplane.
Can you get a ticket for like flying erratically or something?
Do you, is there a, Yeah. Well, so if you're doing things you're not supposed to be doing up
there, um, the FAA can start, uh, they can suspend your,
your license. They can take away your ability to fly and things like that.
And yeah, you can get some fines. Okay. But I'd say the real cops up there,
if you try flying in any kind of restricted airspace.
Oh yeah.
And you get, you know, pair of F-16s flying up right next to you.
That's, you know, your indication that you need to leave.
Yeah, you get Maverick and Goose on your ass.
Well, Maverick anyway.
Jesus.
Spoiler alert.
Rest in peace.
Hey, spoiler alert.
Yeah, I know.
Well, I have 84. If you
haven't seen it yet, that's your own issue. Can you paint your, can you paint? Yeah, we're
already on the rooster. Yeah, that's true. Pass. Now we're doing rooster. What a smoke
show that guy was though. Seriously. Hey, um, can you, uh, paint your plane like a duck?
Oh, there we go. Yeah. I mean, I'd say red breasted Morgana but mallard is more common
You know so you could you could do that or a goose. I could do well no no we're bringing back goose into this
Yeah
Have a parachute in it if you paint it like a goose and make sure you get enough clearance on the thing. Yeah. Do you have any, um, uh, parachutes or anything?
Cause in the Midwest, especially when we do a DIY, we at least know that we're
going to screw some stuff up. So can you put a parachute on this plane just in
case? So we talk in like small personal parachutes, you strapped your back and
we're talking to a really big one for the plane.
Really big one. Really big one for the plane. Do they make those?
They do actually. Oh sick. Just put one of those.
They do, but, but they, uh, when you deploy them,
you destroy the whole airplane to do that.
Well, you still got good metal.
It's either that or you just the whole airplane when you crash.
Yeah. Yeah. I don't know if you do that. Well, you still got good metal. It's either that or you just the whole airplane when you crash. Yeah. I don't know if you know, I think
you're too worried about the airplane at this point. If you're, if you're even
thinking about deploying, I'm less, I'm less worried about the, uh, you know, if
I crash and I'm less worried about personal safety, as I'm more worried
about my reputation as a mechanic, I would be more worried about personal safety as I'm more worried about my reputation as a mechanic.
I would be more worried about personal safety. Yeah, yeah, I think he'll get over that.
Have you ever crashed an airplane?
No, I have not.
I was in, I was doing some work in Los Angeles
the day that Harrison Ford crashed his airplane
on the golf course.
So you've, you've never even been close to one.
I know I got real close to the airplane. I went and took a picture.
I walked up real close. That dude's crashed like three airplanes and a helicopter.
Isn't that wild?
The Millennium Falcon buddy, you know, yeah. That's what he told them.
Cool it solo. the Millennium Falcon buddy. You know, yeah. That's what he told him. Yeah. Cool. It's so low. All right. You're not in space. There's atmosphere here. All right. It was about time.
Maybe you hand in your leather vest and wings. Just let the real pilots do it, you know,
and get your hairy friend out of here. He's breathing on
me. I can't even do it. I can't even do a chewy impression. Somebody can. All right.
And why is your buddy always kissing his sister? It's fucking weird. He didn't know. He didn't
know. Without the respect, Mr. Ford. All right.
So we got cup holders.
We got cup holders.
We got a good painting job.
What state are you living in right now?
Where are you from?
So I'm originally from Indiana, but I've spent the last few years in Connecticut.
Okay.
Indiana.
Well, we got to give something for Indiana.
Yeah, just paint it.
Do the red and white stripes for the Hoosier pants. Oh, there you go. I can't do that. I'm a pretty
boy. The maker. Oh, those deals. Okay. Yeah. So paint it blue like the sky. It'll be a
sky camel, you know, paint it like the wallpaper in toy story. story. You got a friend in me. You got a friend in
me. All right. All right. People don't think about how sexual those lyrics are for that
song. I've never thought about how sexual those lyrics are. It's a toy. Yeah. I mean,
when I tend to think of children's shows,
I don't tend to go that direction.
Yeah.
But his name is Woody.
Well, you know, his name's Woody,
and the theme song is You Got a Friend in Me.
Ah, oh.
So I'm just saying.
There's a snake in my.
Yeah, exactly.
Okay.
All right, well, you got a friend in me.
We finally got him to laugh.
There we go, Charlie. Locked and loaded.
All right. So you got a duck.
You got a duck plane.
Can you put a grill in?
No carbon monoxide poisoning.
That won't be good. We've got to have some good venting. That's all. Oh, good. Put a grill in there carbon monoxide poisoning that wouldn't be good.
We've got to have some good venting.
That's all. Oh, go ahead.
Put a grill in there, man.
Get yourself maybe a little George Foreman just to avoid the carbon monoxide
situation altogether.
But you do want to vent it out there.
So maybe kill the two back seats and have that be your grill station.
Yeah, your grill station. Yeah. Your grill station. Oh, we could definitely do that.
Put a little, you know, keep a little mini fridge in there too. And the whole cooking station set up.
Yeah. And definitely, definitely make it a pontoon boat or a pontoon plane. Put the, put the skis on
it, put some skis on where those are. They called sk? Like those planes that land on blur. Yeah. Making a float plane. Cause that way you can do a little fishing.
You know, you can, you can go, uh,
yeah, you can troll wall high.
My lines caught in the propeller.
Yeah. I see. I don't think the, uh, the big, the big noise would scare all that
fish away. No, they, they,
they're deep. I saw a meme actually. It was like, my dad was lying when he said if I was
talking too loud, it'd scare the fish away. He just wanted me to shut the fuck up. Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Now he just doesn't talk. talk my dad you find that out you the older your dad gets less he talks
Yeah, it's like every year
It's just minus is a whole like, you know 15 minutes of talking off his day
And now he's got none left my dad just kind of make sounds like he'll do this
Like he'll exhale loudly to in church when the homilies happening. I'll just be like, oh
Just that's the only thing you can hear during the homily. It's great. I can translate all those grunts, right? Oh, yeah
I know it I know it well the other weekend
I went up to my dad and I told him this thing and
He just sat there and looked at me and looked at me to the point where I just said good talk
walked away there and looked at me and looked at me to the point where I just said, good talk and
walked away.
And he was perfect. Do I have to bully my dad into talking to me? I like it. Oh, bud,
tell him I say hi. Oh, put a trailer hitch on the plane. You need that. You never know
when you're going to be going on a long trip
and you know, you're going to have to take some extra stuff that can't fit. You don't
have enough space in the only four seats. You know, what if you want to take a boat
with yours?
Do they make a U-Haul with wings on it? You could just pull that behind. Oh, I think that,
I think that's the opportunity for a new, a new, a new purchase.
Yeah. This is experimental situation experiment with a trailer.
Yeah. Do you guys remember that cartoon? This was back when I was a kid. So you, you guys
might not know this. This is ancient history, but there was a cartoon called, I think ranger
tales or something, but it was it DuckTales.
So DuckTales, is that where they had a plane
and they were like wakeboarding behind the plane?
Can you do that on a plane?
Like if you had a tow rope and like a deal
could like you surf behind the plane with like, you know,
it's skiing or yeah, kind of like a wakeboard
or skis behind a plane.
Can you do that? I mean, I'm betting you probably could. You've got to have a long enough throw rope.
All right, let's do that. Yeah. Yeah. Let's add one of those.
It's smart. Like, you know, it's all about how you can when you own an airplane, it's like you rent it out
when you're not using it to get your money's worth. You could start renting it out to resorts on the lake and they can go skiing
behind it. Oh yeah. That's
so that's the one thing with experimental is you actually can't operate it for a
profit. So you can't,
it sounds like a great thing. Things like that.
It's strictly a recreational vehicle.
Are you filing any patents on the stuff you create?
No.
So all of the, um, like I'm building this to a, to a set of plans, uh, they, out of
a company out of Oregon who ends up sending me, um, so they have a set of plans on how
to build everything.
And then in sections, I'll order, you know, a crate of aluminum and creative creative
parts and they'll send them out. I'll put those together. Then when I need new parts,
I'll order some more from them. So this is the whole, the main designs already been proven
out. There's about a thousand of these specific models flying around. I've just then get to
customize on top of that. All right. So you got a couple, there's a grill, a slick paint job, a trailer hitch
and a tow rope. We're doing pretty good. I'm pretty good. Put a fish finder on it for when
you're fishing, you know, and also like a duck finder, a turkey finder, deer finder.
You kind of want to mark these things as you go. So I don't know if
they even have those things, but start with the fish finder.
Do some scouting. Well, I mean, there's those, there's those airplanes that they use to go
try to find submarines out in the water. I'm betting those have worked just fine finding
fish.
It's true.
Yeah. Get yourself one of those.
I got another good idea, Charlie.
What's that?
You need a seat on a gyroscope.
A seat on a gyroscope, a seat on a gyroscope. If I know anything about smaller planes is turbulence
can get pretty hefty, especially if you're not flying too high in the air. And I once
flew on a little prop plane from Fargo to Duluth. And by the end I was ready to throw
up from motion sickness. Yeah, really it was it was a toe curling experience
Oh my gosh. Yeah, I mean they're just like boats the smaller they are the more they're gonna get pushed around correct
So why don't airplanes have seats that are in a gimbal of some sort that?
Don't move with the plane but keep you on plane. That's actually a really good idea. I
Think most that's gonna go into the weight.
You know, everything you put on there, you know,
it weighs, you know, weighs a certain amount
that you're trying to fight just to keep up in the air.
And so all that stuff adds extra weight to the plane.
Plus you're just asking for something else to break.
Yeah, that's true.
Okay, well, I guess-
I was just saying, I feel like people would enjoy flying more if there was a
Gimbal of some sort keeping them from getting motion sick, but that's just me. Well, I'll tell you this I'll tell you this
You're gonna want to have those windows where you put the hand crank on the windows
So you're able to ratchet straps stuff to the top of the to the top put a roof rack on the top
Yeah, yeah, you need that. I do that. Okay
Do you have a gun rack?
No, not yet. Well put it I yet put it in
Yep, you're gonna want to take that sucker deer hunting
Probably gonna want to land first though before we try to hunt anything right not if you're going to want to take that sucker deer hunting. You're probably going to want to land first though, before we try to hunt anything. Right?
Not if you're hunting hogs in Arkansas. Oh yeah. They just do that air aerially. Yeah.
Almost sounded like Ariel. Oh, that's what you could name the plane, though. Ariel.
It's fun to play on words. Air.
What's the paid job look like?
Very for the planes pink and the rest is tan or what?
I didn't say any colors, Miles.
I didn't see any colors.
I'm not going there.
I will say this sounds like an incredible
opportunity you have here. Let's see here.
What else miles? What else?
So it sounds like there's, you know, you say experimental, but there's a thousand of these
planes flying around. And so you need to differentiate. And I really think the paint job is going
to be the thing. Is it going to be your brand?
While paint jobs out there for sure. Yeah. You got to build the brand through the paint
job. Yeah. Are you a Colts fan? I'm not much of a football fan I'm more of a college
basketball and baseball fan. Oh yeah okay. Alright. Yeah. Boiler maker. Oh I know
what you can do. You should have each of the wings. How many feet are the wings?
31 foot wingspan. So each one.
Total. Perfect. Each one, you can have a cornhole deal on it. You can play cornhole on each
wing.
So you're throwing across the wings.
And then, so then the hole,
just put it all the way through the wing
so when it falls through, it falls all the way down?
Yeah, you could, you could.
That's not, yeah, put it, I mean, if you can,
engineering-wise, put a hole in the wing, absolutely.
Oh, then you don't even need the boards.
Yeah, drill a couple holes in those wings.
Oh, there's already, I mean,
there's already gonna be infection holes in the plane. Yeah, there's already going to be inspection holes in the plane.
So just make it wider. Yeah. Oh, perfect.
Also, then you in the winter.
OK, here you need to put a tube.
You're thinking I fish in. I am.
But don't put that on the wing.
You want a tuber in the actual cabin.
So put a hole right underneath.
Yeah. And then under each seat. Yeah. And keep some of that aluminum. Make a tube out of it.
That tube will stretch from your seat to the ice. Okay. The light out. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Does that
make sense? Do I need to draw plans for you? I mean, I'd love to see him. Yeah, I'm sure we can market him out. Definitely make a tuber.
Other than that, I want each seat to have a cooler underneath it.
So make sure you do that.
Every seat that doubles as a cooler, pretty standard.
Obviously.
Standard.
And the seats should not,
should they forget the,
they should just be five gallon buckets.
Every seat should be a five gallon bucket.
Trap down some five gallon buckets. Every seat should be a five gallon bucket in five gallon bucket insulated. Yeah. So you can put beers in there, sausage, cheese,
whatever you got to do.
I mean, don't be, get one of the lids with the padded seat on the top. Don't, you know,
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. We got, we got to make them nice. Yeah. Yeah. And one of the seats
should be, um, that should be the John.
So you have bathroom on this plane. Yeah, you have bathroom on the plane.
Well, you know, I mean, the range on this thing
is gonna be about a thousand miles.
So that's about five and a half hours flight time.
So some people's, you know, bladders don't go that far.
So do pilots just land the piss
or do you guys have a, how do you guys piss?
Yeah, I mean, most of the time you're just gonna you're not gonna want it
I mean just like on on your regular commercial flights. You're not gonna want to sit in that seat for five hours
So, you know if you need to you put playing some pit stops along the way
Yeah, but that just costs money if anything about landing in an airport and refueling and shed it
That's a lot of that's a lot of gas takes the most amount of gas to take off and land. Doesn't it?
Yeah. And then a lot of these small airports will have landing fees.
That's just basically maintenance fees for the, for the runways. And so every time you land,
you got to, you got to pay a little bit, unless, unless you buy some fuel from them.
Have you thought about just doing flight simulator?
Unless, unless you buy some fuel from them. Have you thought about just doing flight simulator?
You chose probably the most expensive hobby you can do. It's more expensive than being a car guy.
Yeah. All right. So that was it. I had it. When I made this decision,
it was, it was either a project car or the airplane. And at that time I was tired of working on the rusty vehicle I had so
Airplane airplane was was the goal there
Okay, well you did it you did it good I
How do like do pilots a
So I heard that you know you get a cramp, okay, you get a cramp when you're driving it, right?
I heard pilots have some tricks to prevent cramping.
Is that true?
Nothing that I've heard of.
Have you heard anything?
I heard you squeeze your calves or something, but I wasn't like you.
You flex your calves and that takes away the ass pain.
But how many ass cramps are you getting?
I get like I imagine you were Googling how to get rid of ass cramps.
I saw. Yeah. Well, Dante told me to Dante's.
He got his pilot's license and he says they squeeze their calves,
but I tried it and it didn't work.
I did get a dry needle in my ass last week though, and it's helped quite a bit
If you guys want to help ass cramps sometimes like you just you're you know you're working too hard
You're crushing it at the doing too many RDL's yeah, whatever
But it will try hip bridges little dry needle in the ass
Maybe that's where the song came from you got a friend friend in me. He was a dry needle guy anyways.
Well, this is good.
I think we've given you a lot of pretty good tips there.
And miles, anything else to send them off on his way?
No, I think we got it.
I think we got it.
Yeah.
You know, it is nice, too, to like check hobbies off the list.
So you're not going to do.
And I think I can confidently say I won't be building an airplane after this. I'm going to be happy
about that. You got, you got you food quote close enough to the sun to realize that it's
too hot for my liking too hot for you.
Hey, you know, we all, uh, you know, folks from midwives who like building things, right?
So we do.
The closer you get to the sun, the colder it gets by little bit of a little bit of a Why is that? I don't know. Caleb, why is that?
I mean, my best guess would be the, you know, everything the sun hits here, all the buildings and the dirt and all that stuff, it retains the heat, right? In the air, there's nothing for it
to hold on to. Oh yeah. That is actually very true. also there's heat coming from the center of the earth as
well. Oh yeah. Right. Where geothermal comes from. Yeah. Well, we learned a lot today on
this. Do you actually know that we're probably more likely that the earth is going to cool
too much for us to inhabit it before the sun dies out? Nope. I didn't. Where'd you hear
that? Ah, chat GPT. I, uh, you want to know my thought,
but this doesn't matter. But so I was on vacation and I was next to a mountain range. And so I
started Googling how old's the mountain range ones. And then it started telling me that there's some
mountain ranges that are actually growing every year and some that are decaying. Right. I knew that.
And, uh, like the smokey mountain or
no. What is the appalachians out the Tetons out in Wyoming are still growing. Yeah. And
usually the more jagged mountain range that it's means is still growing. Whereas if you
get to less jaggedy ones, that means that they're eroding and they're not growing anymore.
Yeah. And so then I started, you know, you know,
how do they work? And then you get into plate tectonics and then you get into the core of the
earth. And then you'll find out, you know, how we were able to even inhabit the earth is cause it
was started really hot and then it cooled enough to support life. And then eventually it won't be
able to again. And this whole thing, That was the rabbit hole I went down.
You know, and we're just here for a little bit of time
and all we gotta do is enjoy ourselves
and make airplanes, you know?
That's right.
Make love and make airplanes.
Isn't that right?
Well, you got a friend in me.
Well, you have fun out there in those skies
and let us know how it goes.
When you're done with your airplane, send us a picture in seven years.
Yeah, appreciate it.
When it's done, you know, my goal is to get up and fly it in the air venture up there.
So, oh, nice.
Well, we'll come see you.
Sounds good.
All right.
Fly safe out there.
Watch for a reindeer.
Bye bye.
Man, how many years is it going to be, like 14, 15 years
into this?
I could never commit to something for that long.
You got to admire it.
Year two, I'm getting bored of that project
and not finishing it.
I mean, true.
I mean, I've got like seven unfinished projects at home
right now.
I couldn't even get my house numbers up.
Yeah, that's true.
Didn't you end up paying a guy to do that?
Well, I didn't.
Yeah, it was I want a different route.
I bought some house numbers.
They didn't.
They weren't going to work.
So then I had to punt and we just like it's a whole thing.
Charlie, they really rehashed this.
Yeah, you shouldn't be a guy building an airplane for God
sakes. Charlie really rehash this yeah, you shouldn't be a guy building an airplane for God's sake no, but I do appreciate they doing it DIY
It's cool. It's very cool. It's expensive
Expensive possibly a death trap, but cool. It's just not good when your hobby
You have you can use the word million in it this this project's gonna cost me a quarter million dollars and stuff. Giving me a quarter of a heart attack
just thinking about.
Good God.
All right, well.
Should we do another one?
Let's do it.
Yes, Miles.
It's summer.
It's summer and with summer comes a lot of fun.
Yeah, it does.
You know, water balloon fights.
Yeah.
Running on the dock.
Slip and slide pool
Darts you name it. There's all sorts of fun activities going on
But that doesn't come with a little bit of risk and now once in a while that fun can go awry
You can sprain an ankle on a dock
You could be dodging a water balloon and collide with a tree bococce ball to the balls, Bocce balls left and right.
And if that happens to you guys, you got to be keeping Nicolet in mind.
You got to give him a call because you don't want to take a bad situation
and make it worse by not calling Nicolet law.
Give him a call. 1855 Nicolet.
Nick. How's it going?
Good, you're a tough man to reach.
Yeah, what's going on Nick?
We called you twice.
Oh my gosh, well we hear your co-workers are acting weird in the potty.
What's going on?
Yeah, so, I was in the bathroom one day.
Are you at work?
Are you in the shedder right now?
Yeah, I am at work, yeah. use your, we'll keep it professional. We'll talk professional
to you. All right. No, it's okay. It's okay. Don't worry about it. We're good. All right.
Are you in a, are you in a cubicle field right now? Like, are you in a, Oh no, it's a warehouse.
Okay. Okay. All right. Go. We'll go to your spot so you can talk freely. Yeah, but we're
good. We're good. All right. So give us a spot in the pallet racking like an employee of the month.
So they like go up on the front left and they had a hangout area up there.
You know what I'm talking about? Yeah.
Yeah. I need one of those.
Yeah, you do.
All right. Spill the beans, man. What's going on?
Yeah. So I was using the bathroom one day.
One or two?
Nine in my business. Number two.
Good for you, dude.
And and this guy, he walks in, recognized him by his shoes, you know,
because it happened more than once.
And he's like, and as he's walking out, I hear him like sigh to himself.
And then he like says under his breath, this kid's always in there.
Thinking to myself, what's up with that?
You know, what's up with that? You know, what's up with that?
And it's he's just saying it. There's no one else in there.
So he's really saying it to you.
He knows you can hear it.
Right. Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah. Okay.
So there's a few things that could be happening.
One, they could be synced up.
Oh, yeah.
Is there only one stall to do your bathroom?
No, there's two in there. Okay. Well, what was someone in the other one?
I don't think so.
No, I know what this is.
I know what this is.
Miles, this is a shy pooping guy.
This guy doesn't want to poop when there's someone else.
That could be true.
Or he could just be a boomer who just, you know, thinks that
you should never take a break for any reason whatsoever
You know, ah
So did he use the urinal and then walk out? Do you think that's what it was? Oh
Yeah, I think so. I think that time it was
Okay, I see. So okay, so that so I misread the situation
He didn't want to use the crapper next to
you or the crapper at all. He, he just was upset that you were doing it. Well, so you
know, this guy's shoes. So you know which guy it is. Yes. Can you give us some Intel
on the guy? What's he like? Oh, I don't know. A little bit awkward, I guess quiet, but he
gets angry easily. Okay. That's about the, my insight
that I got. Is he like 55 plus probably mid fifties. I'd say, yeah, he's got some seniority
over you. What's his job at the shop?
Oh, kind of the same as mine. Just like filling stuff with chemicals, moving stuff with forklifts,
you know? Okay. Nothing crazy. No, no, no. Jesus. He's not in my head. I am. Oh, no,
no. I don't. He might be. I'm not though. He probably, yeah. I think what we're seeing
is, is a guy who's been at the company a long time. He knows how it goes.
And then you show up, you're doing his his same job and he's getting a little
jelly donut. And so now he's got to find reasons why you're a sub par employee to him.
I think he's I think he's a little bit threatened by you.
Yeah, that could be it. That could be it.
Well, that's also let's not just assume that
our guy Nick is in the right here. How many times are you shitting a day? Probably two
at work. I mean, that's two at what are you just eating beans and lettuce for, for lunch?
Like you just, are you just, are you seeing fiber one bars all day?
I don't know. I don't know.
Just just doing what I got to do, you know, give my body health.
You ever get impressed by one, you know, lay down there, want to take a picture?
Oh, yeah, all the time.
Never a picture, but we got a phone number for you if you want to send, you know.
We're at this bar right now, Nick.
And on the wall, it says send shit picks too.
And then listen number.
Oh yeah.
Yeah.
Give him a call.
No, it's someone's aunt.
They were, it was a, it was a, we called it, we called it and yeah,
not our proudest moment.
Is, is that it? Nick, Is that the only two times a day? If you had
a coworker that was in there every day, two times a day, you would get frustrated that
he's getting extra breaks. He's probably underplaying it to probably some days it's like three or
four every time. Are you doing business there or are you just checking emails? No, I'm doing
business. I'm doing my business.
You know, I like to keep it professional in there. That's good. Are you on your phone?
Well, a little bit, but you know, it's just a test of time. Yeah, I'm in there. But I'm like, I think back to working on the construction site. If I was taking a poop twice a day,
they would be on my ass. Well, yeah, that's true. They would be
giving me shit about that. Yeah. Yeah. They're on your ass for trying to get some off your
ass. I don't, I don't like that. I knew you were going to go there. You didn't know where
you did. Yeah. So predictable. I mean, like, what, I mean, how's your relationship with
this guy outside the bathroom? You guys cordial or is there a riff? I mean, we don't really talk. We don't really talk, but nothing
no like bad blood between the two of us. Is that the, I don't know what it is. Is that
the only weird thing that was said to you? And is that the only coworker that said something
to you? Yeah. Yeah. Now I let you know that you may have
the reputation around the office as being the guy
who takes too many bathroom breaks.
And when you're in there,
they're all looking at each other going like,
yeah, he's doing it again.
That might be true.
So as your doctor, we're gonna prescribe your joint doctors here
We're gonna prescribe you a little some to help with the situation
You're gonna start eating three servings of cheese every breakfast that should keep you plugged up
Should keep you plugged up at least until 5 36 o'clock when you're at your own facility. All right
All right. Yeah, I'll try that one out. Call
you guys back and let you know how that one goes. Call. Yeah. And if you don't want to
do that, throw it back in their face. If you feel like just go like what boss makes a dollar,
I make a dime. That's why I shit on company time. There you go. Exactly. There you go.
Right. You know what? Write that in the stall the next time you're there. So the next time. That's a good idea. Yeah. And then they'll see it there
and they'll appreciate it. That's right. You just got to start doing some, some restroom
propaganda while you're in there. Start getting people on your side. Start a movement. Yeah.
Bowel movement. Yeah. Yeah. Start writing bad things about Kevin on the wall, you know?
Yeah, that would be good.
Well, they can't be bad about Kevin because you want Kevin on your side.
Does he know?
I mean, I think he does.
He's starting a revolution.
You need everyone on your side, even the people you know.
Yeah, we deserve two two poop breaks a day to put on one. Now, see, this is why everyone hates millennials.
You know what?
What? You don't even know he's a millennial.
He could be a Gen Z.
How old are you? 21.
No, Gen Z is why everyone hates Gen Z.
You know, back in the day, they didn't even they didn't even
they didn't even have time to poop at all.
You just clenched your cheeks, sweaty cheeks. Yeah. I got to figure something out. What is your diet by the way? Are you? Cause it's like, it's either one of two things. Either
you have a fibrous diet or you're eating, you're eating frozen pizza and light and Doritos and light beer every
day. Which one is it?
I'd say more towards like the first one, you know, a lot of protein, you know, stuff like
that. But are you a gym? I wouldn't say that, but I like to spend my time in the gym a little
bit. Oh yeah. What's your bench? How much you bench?
Oh, I got no idea. I got no idea. Never haven't tacked on a
while. You can't tell me you're only doing leg day. No, no, I'm
just, I'm just not like pushing my max weights. You know,
you see your cross fitter
Sure sure are you actually
No, I'm not
Probably describes it better though. You know what I'm doing in there. You a TRX guy, you know
You are you a jazz or size guy?
That would be good. I got a look into that. Charlie, we should do a jazzercise course. That'd be fun. That'd be a lot of fun. You should do it.
We should have it like bellied up in the field.
Nick, are you you got a girlfriend or are you just going to the gym trying to pick one up?
I got a girlfriend.
Okay.
Okay. Does she know you're going to the gym when nothing specific in mind?
Yeah, she knows.
She knows she supports it.
Does she know you go to the gym and don't max out ever?
Yeah, she does.
I think I might have to have a conversation about that one though.
Tell us about your gal friend.
I'm curious.
I'm curious.
The gal behind the toilet seat.
What do you want to know? What do you want to know? What's her best quality?
You know, she's got a great heart. Very kind.
Keeps me happy.
Now what's her.
That's good. That's good. Are you going to marry this gal? You think?
I don't know. I don't know. I'll tell I guess Oh, how old is she?
She's 20. So you're younger than me
So do you go to the bar by yourself then?
Yeah, oh
That's got to be a little bit of a riff in the relationship. Huh?
Who you been talking to?
You know just the fellas, you know the fellas going out for a few beers. How long you guys talking to? You know, just the fellas, you know, the fellas going out for a few beers.
How long you guys hanging out?
A year and a half.
Oh, it's getting serious.
You have to either shit or get off the pot.
Yeah, yeah.
You get that, Nick?
Based off of our previous conversation.
That's what we call a callback.
All right, well, so you think it may or may not work out
at this point, good for you.
I think it will, but we'll have to see.
What are you still looking for?
You know, if you're still on the fence,
what are you looking for?
What does she have left to reveal to you
to know if she's the one?
Well, I don't know, it's just, you know,
I gotta get financially stable and all that
and figure that all out, you know,
get to that point in my life,
and then we'll see how the relationship is then.
Sounds fairly non-committal.
If I'm her dad, I'm not happy with these responses.
I feel like you might be wasting my daughter's time.
What's the plan for more financially stable?
Oh, well, trying to leave this warehouse.
So that's the first step.
And where are you trying to get to?
I'm trying to get in a pipe fitting.
Trying to lay some pipe.
Yeah, that's that's lay some pipe. Yeah.
All right. Yeah. Yeah. That's that's that's probably yeah.
That's a step in the right direction. I mean, you this guy loves the bathroom.
Yeah. Yeah. Is there something that may I welcome to the interview for the pipe
fitting job? What's your qualification? I poop twice
a day. Really? I know my way around some pipes and I know how to clog them. I know it on
clog them. I know the ins and outs, so I'm excited for you and your future here, Nick.
Thank you. I appreciate it. So what if that ship doesn't come into Harbor or whatever? What is it? What if that
ship stays at bay? You know, is it, you don't want your love to be conditional on what your
salary you're making either though. You know? Oh, I know. I know. I just got to like, you
know, move out first of my, with my parents, you know, move out. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That's stuff. What's what does
she do for a job? She's in college right now. Oh yeah. It's going to be a couple of years.
What's she going to do when she gets out? Get herself a sugar mom or is she a communication?
No, she wants to be a social worker. Oh God. Yeah. Good for her. Good for her. God's blessed
respect being an art major. But yeah, financially,
that'll be a tough one. So you better start laying those pipes. I want to just get into
finance or something. Yeah, I don't think so. Now he's probably in the right place.
Robots, they can do the finance. You were just talking about before this, that the best
way to do with your money is put it in a fund that, yeah, the index fund. Yeah. S and P guy doubles every seven years.
So you got a hundred bucks now in seven years, you have 214 years.
You got 400 bucks. This keeps going like that.
Are you investing yet? Nick or no, not really.
No yourself a Roth, potentially a backdoor Roth.
I think I got one, but you know, not much in there yet. You just think you got one. Okay. Well, you know, they, they, they gave me one through
work. Do you match maxing out the match? Yeah. Oh, I don't think so. No. We just start doing
that. That's a huge mistake. Every day. You're start losing up on you losing out on a compounding
interest and don't even get me started on compounding interest. Next time you're on
the pot, once you Google compounding interest, and I guarantee you're going to walk right
into HR department and say, I need to max out my, my match here. Otherwise I'm wasting
time. Yeah. Yeah, I'll do that. I'll do that. Okay. Well, this is a good talk, Nick. We're
happy you called in and tell Kevin that we say hi. All right. I will. I'll let him know. Thank you guys.
You Batman. Good talking to you. Good kid. Good kid. You know, we, we told him what we
needed to tell him and we'll see if he ponies up, you know, figures his life out a little bit.
To be 21 again.
And that's the biggest concern in your life is a co-worker muttering
a little phrase as he leaves the bathroom.
Yeah, it's a nice, nice way to live.
My wife says that to me once a day.
Or not even aggressively says it to my kid who can't talk.
Oh, yeah.
Dad's in the bathroom pooping again, avoiding his responsibilities.
I don't even think it's possible for someone to poop that much.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So maybe I can't talk.
Yeah.
I bet she's just on his phone quite a bit.
You know, that can be tough on the lower back.
Lower back, yeah.
And the colon, I think, where the rec.
Do you guys think it's true?
Do you guys ever see that rumor that there's a company in,
I don't know, some country in Asia that they made their toilet seats have
an angle down a certain degree so that after like seven minutes of sitting on the toilet,
your knees start to hurt really bad so that people aren't wasting time on the toilet.
Oh, I bet China. Yeah. Sounds like a Chinese workplace for sure. Yeah. If they even, you know,
I also saw I I'm it's so hard these days to know what is just
made up on the Internet and not right.
But I'll say that Japan's got more pets than they do children these days.
Yeah, they're on a negative.
They have a negative birth rate, I think.
They're a dying civilization, kind of like Europe.
Yeah, crazy.
Got to start.
Got to start for Nick.
And that's a musky tank.
We got to start making pet products in Japan.
Oh, there you go.
Yeah, like Samurai.
So we could do like, well, I was saying we could bring the Midwest flavor to Japan
pets and we could do like venison pet food,
you know, venison pet food you know venison pet food we'll see if why would they see if cats have a flavor for deer okay all
right well taste for the deer it's not a bad idea oh okay Charlie we got a
voicemail here buckle in here's the mail that never fails and makes me want to wag my tail when it comes. I want a whale
voicemail
His name's deegan Deeks. All right, boys. I need your help. So
My dad I'm sure you guys know the rule about touching the dad's thermostat and that's a no-go
But he leaves the house at a steep 80 degrees Fahrenheit. Okay. And I'm a cold sleeper. Okay. So I don't need to know if I have the right to touch the thermostat.
If it's not outrageous, I can't take it anymore. This needs to change ASAP. Yeah. Yeah. It
sounds Deegan, like you need to get a job and move out. I was going to say you can touch
the thermostat, but he can touch you with the back of his hand at a rate of 28 miles per hour. So if you
want that fastball, go ahead, give it a go. Um, 80 is pretty, um, you know,
that's not bad. I grew up with no AC and you just kind of stuck to the sheets.
That was how it went.
You know, I have to say I,
I am turning a little bit into my dad at the lake last weekend.
I did get mad at someone for leaving the door open because we had the AC,
but it was a heat index was 100 degrees.
That was my only relief was the AC inside and someone left the door open
and just let all the heat in
Cool the whole lake
I mean And it's honestly not even the heat's the humidity, you know, you get into bed at night
We got a dehumidifier at the lake
but if you if that sucker's not on or we have the
Door open all day
You get into bed. It's like I didn't sign up for a water bed. It's, it's
just damp. I didn't know that that was one of my pet peeves is damp sheets from the
humidity. I just don't know if I can live in flow. Yeah. It's from the humidity, huh?
Yeah. Yeah. Towel off from sweaty McSwets over here. I love how you're saying somebody
like you have more than one other person that you live with
Well, no, the leg is like, you know, there's multiple people. Okay. Okay. Got it. So some people filter in and out
All right. I got it. I got it. Yeah
I mean, you know the thing with the thermostat is that if you pay attention that you can save some significant money
Every I mean we're talking like to the tune of like $50 a month could be saved with living in
discomfort all the time.
That's like on you bet your radio or other podcasts.
I told a story about, um,
and I will just leave our outside lights on like because we just don't want to
have to think about flipping them on and off. And during the day,
you can't it's so bright
Oh, you can't see that the lights are on so matter
So as soon as he's like put it on the timer
I'm like, I'm just it it's fine and and he was gonna lose his mind on me because of all the electricity
We're wasting your dad. Yeah, I mean, I'm kind of with him on that dollars and 40 cents a month extra
Do you at least have high efficiency bulbs out there like LEDs?
OK, yeah. All right.
I mean, that's pretty low, pretty low.
Still a waste of money.
But you know, you add that up over it ruined his day when he found that.
Well, because it's not just out like miles.
If you're doing them with that light, what else are you doing it with?
So that's it.
I don't know. Let's dig into that a little bit more.
Let's talk about those numbers on your house.
Did you pay someone to put those up?
I bought a sign with the house numbers and we put it up together.
Oh, you bought a sign.
You know, he was a buddy who had him.
Yeah. Yeah.
They said you were supporting your body. Correct.
Okay. All right.
They help you out there.
It's still a waste of money. So I'm wondering between the house numbers, between the lights being on. He had a set. You were supporting your body. Correct. OK. All right. They help you out there.
Still a waste of money.
So I'm wondering between the house numbers, between the lights being on,
I'm kind of on your dad's side on this one.
How often are you changing your oil?
Because, you know, that seems like a fixed cost, like where you can avoid that.
But the gas you're going to save in the gas in the long run.
I'll look at your car.
Won't get out of this.
