Hey folks, welcome to the Bellied Up Podcast.
We are here at the Howler House in Milwaukee,
the oldest bowling alley in the continental United States
and non-continental, okay?
This is a historic piece of Milwaukee.
Miles, we are sitting in history right now.
Jack White has been here.
Okay, they filmed the movie Chump Change here,
which I was told you should smoke a dupe and
watch by the current owner of the Howard house. Oh really? Yeah. And we got pinball machines.
We got trees as it's decorated for Christmas. So it is dating this episode a little bit,
but miles, I date this bar if I could exclusively. How are you doing? My, I was getting the whole
history lesson while we were waiting for you to show up.
I wasn't that late.
Why are we doing that?
So they said she said that the bar here is actually a Brunswick bar.
Really? And Brunswick used to make bars before they made pool tables.
Wow. Yeah. Holy smoke. now this, it is some,
they just don't make bars like this anymore.
No they do not.
With the fine woodwork.
You know, they just kind of throw some,
some duct work behind the deal.
You know, and they call it cowboy jerk offs or whatever.
No, they don't do it like this anymore.
Folks, if you're in Milwaukee, you gotta come over
to the Holler House, I tell you that much right now.
Did you see, Charlie, that they have bras
hang up behind us?
Oh, I forgot. Unmentionable smiles.
We call them unmentionables.
I forgot my bra at home.
I'm pissed that I didn't wear one today.
You're going free titty right now
Yeah, because they say that the first time you come here you hang your bra up and sign it. Hey, I'm tradition
What do the fellas do? I don't know. Maybe they have a banana hammock section somewhere. Okay, I better find that
Mine's riding pretty high right now. Jesus. Yeah, okay
Banana hammocks a different scenario.
You got to make sure you're what's crazy about this place has been around for 117 years.
Three generations have owned it. The bowling alley downstairs was made in 1904 and you
could just feel the history and yeah. Damn. I really was late, wasn't I? Yes, you were.
Getting a lot of info on there.
Sorry, my sorry for being late.
This cast register, Lee, 70 years old, she said.
Lee 70.
Mm hmm. Looks like 80 to me.
Tell you that right now.
Is there is it functioning? Is it working?
I don't know. It doesn't appear to be OK.
Well, it's a phenomenal deal. Oh, and they've
got best prices in town guys. They got the original menus up mixed drinks, high ball,
15 cents, gin, book, gin, buck, my glasses were my fucking readers. Sorry. Frickin readers. Gin buck 15 cents. Whiskey, sours 15 cents. Atomic Collins school
school gin fits school. Is that a school gin? Yeah. I have never. Ah, and then a red Robin
15 cents. That sounds like a sex position. Kind of. They also have a sign that says half
gallon beer for 25 cents. We got to start measuring
years and gallons again. Wait, where is that? I don't even see that left over there. Oh,
wow. Plus deposit. You got to put the deposit. What's the deposit? You know, is that like
when now your credit card is that the vert? you got to put some money down on the beer before before you pay your tab?
No, I'm guessing the deposit is for the the mug that they served it in which is probably you know
They probably served in one of them really big like boots. It's a deposit for the boot. They do that at beer gardens sometimes. I
Like what is this? Oh, that's a shot.
Oh, that's a beautiful shot ski right there.
Oh, my gosh. Bring that. Thank you.
Thank you.
Opers here when we bring all the loppers elbow.
Look at this.
Now, this is a beautiful shot ski.
This is a custom made one.
You can tell because on the other side of the shot ski, look at that, Miles.
Was that I think it's bowling.
Those are bowling lanes.
That's nice.
Yeah.
Isn't that cool?
That is so slick.
Uh, I've never had a slow gin fizz, but I'm going to order that the next bar I go
to, uh, nothing, how many, how many of those, uh, beers are still there's really kick really kicking it. Old
Heidenberg. I think that went away with the Nazis. Humberbacher comb comb bacher. Old
town locker. This our lager. They're still old town. Ain't it. They were still old town
Fox had four hundreds. their Fox head still around I
Saw Fox doing something like that in the woods once
Regardless guys you got to get to Holler house. This is a great spot and
What's?
What I like about it is you can tell how much the people that own it love this place
You really can the that's the kind of bar you want to go to.
You can feel the love.
You really can.
I don't know if that's the ghosts here or whatever,
but they're a lot of love.
Oh, it's being which, Miles,
you want to show that Santa Claus?
Mrs. Claus in Santa Claus?
No, we're filming this during Christmas time,
and look at this.
Oh, hang on.
For those of you listening at home, this is a 20 year old plastic bathtub and Santa is.
And we think it's Mrs. Claus. We can't confirm whether or not it's Mrs. Claus or not,
but they are both in the tub together and they are.
What would you say they are?
Cowboy, they're washing each other's bodies with the other person's body.
Let's just say the town is this gal in the-
They are going to town.
Santa Claus is going to town.
Yeah, or I won't say coming into town.
He's coming.
Let's not, you know.
Anyway.
It's a family show.
Children's show.
Yeah.
Miles, I came up with this genius, genius system that I'm excited to tell you about.
Should I do it on this episode or next episode?
Let's do it. What do you got? So I cleaned up my apartment.
OK, I cleaned it up and I cleaned all the clothes up and I got a new system.
I was doing too much laundry and I said, why am I doing too much laundry?
Like this shirt is good shirt.
Like see this shirt?
I'm just wearing it standardly today.
Well, it's not dirty, right?
It's not dirty.
After like, I'm not working very hard today.
It's not getting, you know,
it's not getting very dirty, right?
Yeah.
So I put it in my, I fold it again
and I put it in a new pile of shirts
and those shirts I go work out with.
Oh, that is smart.
So they're not dirty shirts, they're kinky shirts.
You know?
Cause you know, they got a little musk to them,
but when you go to the gym, you're already smelling
and everyone around you smelling.
So it's cut down on my laundry so much that
I feel like I need to tell everybody about this system. It's not called dirty laundry.
It's called kinky laundry and you can wear it out to the bar again if it's still smelling
okay but it's basically wearing your laundry multiple times before watching it. It is saved
me so much time. I believe it so much time How how many times will you wear these pair of jeans before you wash them? Oh pants? I don't wash pants
Yeah, are you kidding me? I maybe I'll wear them
Six seven times before I wash them. I've been washed some jeans in a year, dude
I need to get a rash after wearing a pair of pants before I wash them
Cuz you're changing out your under slacks. You know your underwear. Yeah. I mean there was no reason to ever do you
wash your coat. No I don't. Yeah. Have you ever watched a cult. No pants are the same
way. I got to watch the coaches get a new one. Exactly. Pants are the same way. Never
wash your pants unless you get a stain on them. But you can just spot wash shows. You
know toothbrush goes a long way. You don't need to put it in that.
Well, you, um, so you work out you. So this goes from clean to the kinky pile. How long,
how many workouts will you do in the kinky shirt? Cause you could even save even more.
I mean three in this one shirt.
So this one, given that we're doing probably nothing worth smelling for today, like,
and I put deodorant on, so it's just going to smell like my deodorant, which is,
it's not bad.
So if it just smells like deodorant, I'll wear it until it starts smelling like
deodorant plus a little funk.
Once it goes deodorant plus funk goes into the kinky pile.
So I may wear this three, four times.
This is actually my third time wearing this shirt without watching washing it without
even going in the kinky pile.
Yeah.
So, but I'm saying once you get in the kinky pile, how many workouts are you going to do
on it?
How hard did I work out?
Right.
You know, did I die?
Go for a run outside where the sweat was just evaporating right away.
I mean, maybe you lifted weights weights and didn't sweat that much.
Exactly.
Yeah, I can do a couple, three times on the workout.
But for you guys, depending on the ventilation
in your closet, you may not wanna do that.
Cause you don't wanna walk in your closet
and start smelling like funk.
You know, if it smells like kink, that's a good thing.
Those are pheromones that even attracts fellas.
The ladies like the pheromones.
OK, not too much.
When pheromones go to funk, then maybe there's a fine line
between pheromones and funk. Mm hmm. Yeah.
Yeah. When the pheromones stop being spelt with a pH,
you want to put it, you you wanna give it your last workout
and then put it in the old wash.
But I'm telling you, my laundry has cut down substantially.
I only do it once a month now.
How are the dishes going?
That's another story.
Yeah, that's another story.
Have you gone full paper plates?
No, no.
If I use a plate, I kinda just give it a, you know? I'm surprised you have more than one plate, honestly.
Why do you need two plates?
I mean, in case you do have company over, you know?
Well, then it's just a BYOP situation.
Bring your own plate.
See, I tried instilling that, but people didn't do it.
People didn't go for it.
Did I tell you that once?
Yeah, they're like, I thought you were joking.
I didn't imagine that.
I didn't imagine that.
I didn't imagine that.
I didn't imagine that. I didn't imagine that. I didn't imagine that. tried instilling that, but people didn't do it.
People didn't go for it.
That tell you that.
Like, I thought you were joking.
I didn't I didn't imagine a world where one one of someone would only have one place.
I thought that was a joke.
I took you seriously.
I did have this one time.
May have told it on this podcast before.
I don't have memory cells.
But my sister came over, or my sister graduated
and it was right by my place.
So I says, you know, you guys come over.
I'll serve booze after the fact.
Because frankly, it was a long graduation ceremony.
I saw my sister walk.
I didn't want to watch every other participation
trophy recipient walk across the freaking aisle.
So I says, I'm going to leave.
That was my excuse to leave. So I got booze there and then my
sister's like do you have food? I was like yeah yeah there's some in the fridge. She
makes a plate out of the cheese I had like in the back I don't even know I had
this cheese. People are eating it now look at the cheese there's mold on the
cheese. I said hang on guys this isn't cheese. And then my dad has it in his hand as my sisters are all freaking out and gagging.
And my dad looks at it, go, just finishes it.
He's a different breed.
He's a different breed.
That is built different back in the day.
They were.
Yeah.
I feel like there's two people in this world.
There's people who respect the expiration date,
and then there's people who think that the expiration date
on stuff is just a guideline.
Just a suggestion.
Yeah, and most dads in the world are,
they're willing to risk the expiration date.
Yeah, I mean, if you think about mold too,
some people, that's how blue cheese is moldy cheese. So what's the difference
if you like home grow that mold? By the way, this is not advice you guys, if anybody gets
sick eating, it's your fault for listening to me. Right?
Right. I never, yeah. You know, yeah, I just, I, I take it in and then I let it go. Yeah. You know, yeah, I just I I take it in and then I let it go.
Yeah. Yeah. That's the way you should.
Yeah. It's like a wave that crashes off a duck's back.
There you go.
Very right off. Yeah.
I think you did tell that story at some point, too, by the way.
It's fine to repeat it.
Huh? Oh, perfect.
Oh, all the yeah.
And nobody listens to like you bet your radio.
Thanks, Charlie.
No, what I'm saying, nobody listens that carefully where they, you know,
you know, the friend you go to the bar with tells the same story every like
there's a like you get you're like, how many people are you telling this story
to that you can't remember?
And out to the point where they've run out of stories.
So now we just hear the same story.
You play the hit over and over again.
Sometimes you request a story.
You're like, tell that. Tell that one.
I also sometimes I will just just to make my mom mad.
I'll just finish the story in a much shorter version than what she would do.
God, that would piss me off.
That would piss me. I could have done that. You've had a bunch of people over. You had moldy cheese and your dad still ate it.
But it didn't. I respect that. You did it. Thank you, Charlie. I have restraint. What is,
well, we talk on you bet your radio that I've been doing you betcha radio since 2019. So what is it?
How many hours of talking? That's a lot of hours, dude. 500 with Patreon, 500 hours of
podcasting I've done. I'm never going to remember all the stuff I said. No, never going to.
I imagine I've told the same story at least four times. Yeah, I mean it's kind of scary,
because I don't remember, like people call in sometimes
and say, I see them on the street
and they talk about the podcast
and they say, you remember when you said this?
No, do not.
I do not, but thank you for listening.
Which leads me to think, like, testimonies in court,
there's no way they're accurate.
No.
You know what I mean?
I mean, the human brain is a beautiful thing,
but it just doesn't have a lot of RAM.
Like if you were to try and remember the stuff we said
on the podcast last week, today, or sorry, yesterday, today.
No.
You couldn't do it.
No, like I got back, yeah, no, I got back. Um, yeah, no, I
got back to my place. I was talking to Randall. She said, what are you guys talking about?
I was like, um, it's kind of like when you're a kid and your mom goes, what'd you learn
at school today? And you just go, you just defaulted nothing. Yeah. Yeah. Talk about
on the podcast today. Nothing. Okay. Well that sucks cuz it's a podcast
But it's clearly what what our brains are doing is just bailing out the boat like
Well, it's cuz we're so dialed in Charlie. We are dialed out. We just blackout. We're in the moment
Guys in the moment. Well, Charlie, should we take some callers? Let's do it. All right. All right guys
We have a Charlie. We have a voicemail. I love voice from Debbie from Minnesota.
Debbie's a great, it's a great name. That's my aunt's name. Debbie sounds like she's from
Minnesota. Debbie. Yeah. Dab for short. Let's see what Debbie has to say. Hey guys, it's Debbie from Resour, Minnesota.
Great energy.
I am calling because I'm not sure if I have a buy, sell, and trade, or I want to start
a business.
I have this ice house that my husband and father decided to do one winter.
They built it from scratch because my father needed a winter project.
They haven't taken it out on ice the last two years.
Classic.
So I'm wondering, do I put this up for sale and get me a nice little car that I could use or do I keep this and start a
ice house food truck business out on the lake? Wow. Let me know what I should do
guys. Watch for gear and tell your folks that's a sigh. Oh! Great energy from Debbie. You're a genius, Debbie. Why haven't we thought about this
before? I don't know. I don't know. Why are we not? We're building ice shanty towns on
big lakes. Correct? Yeah. You got them live. These, these little ice shanty towns have
roads. Yeah. They damn near have stoplights on these things.
They, what they do. It's a crack in the ice.
Why aren't we putting in food trucks areas?
We could even start zoning the lakes.
Zoning. Yes. Yes. I love it. I mean, this is a genius idea,
you know, um, right? Like you have taco trucks on the street.
They got streets on the ice.
This is just a natural progression.
This is the advancement of human society is what this is.
We already have, I've been to a bar on the ice
in Detroit Lakes, Minnesota,
where they actually build a bar out there
and you can go get drinks.
Really?
Why don't we have food trucks out there?
Man, Minnesota is really I feel like the epicenter of the greatest ice ideas yet,
because I got to tell you, I've never been to a bar on the ice in Wisconsin,
and I'm starting to feel like we're falling behind.
Yeah, they got minnow shots there.
They have minnow shots at the bar.
Oh, my gosh.
Where you put they have a trifecta where they do a minnow, a leech and a
and a night crawler.
Nova, you could do that.
That would be your next spin, Charlie.
They have that at Tiger Musky Resort in Hayward.
But that's not on ice. That's on land.
Anyways, I like this food truck concept quite a bit
and I actually, there's this one place in Kenosha
I was fishing down on the Great Lakes
and if you catch yourself a salmon or something
or whatever, you bring your catch in
and they grill it up for you.
So I wonder if at this food truck,
they have an option where you can bring your catch and they'll fry it up for you. You I wonder if at this food truck, they have an option where you can bring your
catch and they'll fry it up for you.
You catch a few birds, you take it there and they fry it up for you.
That'd be good.
Perch tacos. Have you ever had a perch?
I've not had a perched taco.
I like that perched tacos.
They they supply because I don't think you can legally like
selfish fresh fish you catch.
But if other people catch it, they can sell vegan tacos. then you add the pescatarian. Yeah. I wouldn't call it vegan
tacos. I probably wouldn't do very good, but you catch it. We, we, we deep fry it. Yeah.
Like you kill it. We grew out grill it. You catch it. We, we, we catch it. You fetch it. We, we, we catch it. We catch it. We fetch it. You fetch it. You catch it. We
fetch it. Yeah. That's the same thing. Darn it. Um, also you were talking on a
previous episode about how you use your, uh, hand ice auger, shaved ice for
drinks. Oh, we gotta add that into the man. You could do shaved ice for dessert.
Shaved ice, shaved ice old fashions.
I mean, just think about it, Charlie.
You go on the lake, you catch a few perch.
Yeah, in the morning, it's about high noon,
you're like, I'm getting hungry.
You walk over to the old food truck,
you give them your perch while you're waiting,
you have a shaved ice old fashion.
Oh yeah, that's the move ice old fashioned. Oh yeah.
That's the move right there.
I love that.
Yeah, I was out fishing on Lake Winnebago,
caught a perch, cleaned the perch,
and I cooked it right there on the ice with a deep fryer.
Now, I will say this is the problem.
It started snowing right there.
And you know, deep fryer and precipitation,
it starts bubbling it up.
So you gotta make sure that situation's well covered
before you put a big old hole in the ice, you know?
That's not good.
Yeah, cover your deep fryers.
But no, this could be really cool.
And I feel like it's one price if you clean the fish,
another price if they have to clean the fish.
Well, and honestly, I know that food trucks have a problem
up here in the North United
States, the North Midwest of in the winter, people aren't walking around as much going
to a food truck to get tacos.
You now have a winter business.
It's perfect.
Oh, and hey, you know what would go great with all of it?
A little tippy cow, you know, as you take a sip of that typical, that's what you can put.
That's why I brought up the shaved ice thing. Right.
In the previous episode, this brain works.
No, this is a great idea, Debbie.
I think you are on to something.
And now all she need is a name.
Well, and yeah. Well, hold on.
I mean, she's saying I could sell it and get a car or you could start this business and you could buy
Multiple cars from how much money you're gonna make. Yeah, you gotta think bigger here Debbie
And I like how you are teach a man to fish you
Man a meal you feed him for a day
Teach a man to fish you feed him for a lifetime sell a man's ice fish. You feed him for a lifetime. Sell a man's ice house. You, you, you get yourself a car, take a man's ice house, turn
it into a food truck. You get a fleet of cars. That's in the Bible. So I,
then with all those cars, you could have an Uber service that drives out on the lake.
So people aren't driving home. Oh, they are drinking on the ice. Yeah. Boom. There you go. And if, if you don't want to go full car, you just get yourself
a snowmobile and a few toboggans, you know, tied to the back of it. That would be fun.
That's like the rickshaw of the ice. You know, you see those guys on the, uh, with the bikes
and the thing, the carriage behind there. That's the horse and buggy of the ice.
Snowmobile, four toboggans tied to the back of it.
People can be like tubing on the, you know,
doing little toboggan wars.
I mean, I would take out a pretty healthy insurance policy
on that because someone's going to break something.
Waivers, waivers, waivers, waivers.
Which reminds us folks, Nikolai law is there.
Anyway, you're saying we need to come up with a name with it for this, though.
Food on ice.
It's like Disney on ice.
But food. Yeah.
It's simpler is better. Yeah. Yeah.
Food on ice, maybe ice tacos.
Yeah. I don't know why we're stuck on that.
It has to be tacos.
But I think that, you know, first location should be tacos.
Yeah. Everybody likes a taco food truck, you know, better in street meat.
Ice meat. That could be, you know, that could be one of them gay bars.
If you want to call it that.
Nothing wrong with that, by the way.
That's just fun. You ever tried that? Anyway, smile.
But good stuff or frosty the frosty the the the sous chef,
you know, frosty the sous chef.
Yeah, I don't.
I more we sing on this podcast, the less I think I know words to
Can't believe it I know I was singing we
Kid has a book with like nursery rhymes and songs
Yeah, and I had to actually like read all the lyrics to twinkle twinkle little star
Like read all the lyrics to twinkle twinkle little star
Winkle twinkle little star how I wonder what you are up above this world So high like a diamond in the sky twinkle twinkle little star
How I wonder what you
I just told you it's a star dumbass, you know, it's a big ball of gas
Do that next time I'm reading them, you know, it's a big ball of gas.
Do that next time I read them to, you know,
if you're wondering what it is, it's actually just a big ball of gas. And it's the the stars that you do see might already be dead,
but just how long it takes the light to get here takes billions of years.
So it might actually be dead already.
So I wouldn't wish upon that star.
That's really off to talk as well.
Yeah. Yeah.
Miles, you're always thinking about gas little ball of gas.
It's a big I know what you are.
Twinkle, twinkle ball of gas.
You did not come from my butt.
Well, we kids at the stage where I can still swear at home and not feel guilty about it. come from my butt.
Well, we really. My kid's at the stage where I can still swear at home
and not feel guilty about it.
I got about a good, at least another solid year or two.
I don't know, Miles, they internalize that stuff.
Like when they're in the womb, you play music,
they come out a better musician.
So they are.
I don't think there's any data to back that up.
There is.
No, I don't think so.
Look it up. Look it up. Could be I don't think so. Look it up.
Look it up.
Could be more of a farce.
Look it up.
It's a lot about DNA.
Uh-huh.
Which can't be absorbed through the womb.
Yet, Miles, yet.
But sooner than.
This is a classic situation
that if you just say something wrong confidently enough,
people will believe you, Charlie.
Well, I know. And that's, I'm right.
Kind of a podcast, I guess.
Yeah, really is.
Well, should we take another call, Charlie?
Let's do it.
Holy shit, is this the Bowie Up podcast?
Oh my God, I'm on the phone for a minute.
I'm in a little bit of a, what's up, boys?
How you doing?
What's up, boys How are you guys? Oh, fantastic too. Yeah.
That's great. What are you doing right now? You sound out of breath.
I'm at work on the foreman, but we're, okay, we're safe in the truck.
What were you, if you're the foreman, what were you doing out of the truck?
You know, I'm a fool. I had my bags on. I should have known better.
What do you do? What do you do for work? Where do you work at?
I'm an electrician. I'm an electrician in Missoula, Montana. Oh, we got a sparky on our hands. There we go. What was the
last time you electric, electrocuted yourself? Oh boys, I electrocuted myself in front of a whole
office in the main building. Were you on something tall? Did you fall with it too?
No, no. Luckily I was making up a switch and I was, I was just trying to get it done and
doing a hot and I accidentally touched the live screw and I, I did a jump and I made
it and the, and the gal behind me and the, uh, behind the desk goes, Oh my goodness,
are you okay? She wanted to, she wanted to call
the cops on me.
He touched the hot wire and turned into Michael Jackson. So are you wearing a quarter zip car
heart sweatshirt right now?
You're you're close. I'm wearing a blaze orange car heart heart sweatshirt. All right, there we go. Quarter zip car, heart
sweatshirt is a uniform for all electricians. I swear. Charlie. Yeah. Yeah. That's exactly
right. And the, and the really expensive hard hat because we just make all the money. That
is true. You guys have someone, you have a limo driver pick you up and take you home from work every
day too. It's, it's not, it's not a limo driver. It's I bought us. I bought a Ferrari and I
have my chauffeur drive me. That is a baller move. You buy a Ferrari and don't even drive
it. Oh man. Well, Connor, why don't you belly up with us? You, Connor is like you said,
from Montana and he is wondering how he can convince his wife to let him buy a snow machine.
Is that true?
Connor? That's exactly right. That's exactly right. Me and my wife just learned that we're
pregnant just in time for snowmobile season.
Congratulations. Congratulations. Congratulations. Well, she already on the sex by the way. Yeah.
Good for you. I've done it at least once. We can prove it. Well, not yet. If she's just
pregnant. Yeah. Could come out not looking like you.
If it comes out anything other than redhead, I'll be suspicious.
I got a kid with blonde hair and blue eyes, so I'm pretty suspicious as well.
Charlie watch it.
They give a face in the wrong direction. You should have been facing east. You're probably facing west.
You were facing the wrong direction. You should have been facing East.
You're probably facing West.
All right.
So your wife doesn't want you to buy a snow machine, huh?
That's exactly right.
I, I, I have enough to get a snow machine,
but she says that paying,
paying the hospital bills to pull this baby out of her is more important.
Well, here's a, here's something to keep in mind, all right?
First and foremost, Ferraris are not known
for driving in the snow very good.
So you gotta have a snow machine to get her to the hospital.
That is true, yeah.
And the hospital bills can take care of themselves
after the fact, all right?
I agree.
I've been trying to tell her if we get a free snow storm,
my Ferrari won't make it to the grocery store,
but a snow machine sure will.
Yeah. That's right.
Yeah.
And it's much easier to put a car seat
on the back of a snowmobile than in a Ferrari.
Yeah.
Yes it is.
Oh yeah.
I got enough tie downs that I could make it work.
There you go.
He's ratchet straps the kid on the snow machine. That's kids not going anywhere.
It's not going anywhere. Your wife can ride behind in a toboggan. No, I mean, I look,
I think, uh, I mean, how much, what's the going rate to have a kid these days?
Shoot miles. It sounds like it sounds like you'd know best. We're my wife is a nurse
and she has a hospital healthcare, but it sounds like the going rates about a double
deductible. So it sounds like it'd be about $6,000, which would be a slick sled. Yeah.
That sounds about right. That sounds about right. Yeah. I mean, in reality it's like, why can't you just have both? You know?
Yeah. Yeah. I know you're an electrician and you have expensive tastes, but just maybe
get a used snow machine. That's a little cheaper. Yeah. And by now think about it later. That's
the American way. All right. Put that baby on a layaway.
Shoot, I forgot I have a credit card.
Yeah, you're totally right.
All right. All right.
Rack it up. Yeah.
I imagine that after he had done the deed, you know, you get that post
nut clarity immediately afterwards.
He was like, oh, I just lost my snow machine.
He's just sitting on the end of the bed, smoking a cigarette going, God, what
could have been had in the hand, just looking out the window. What's wrong?
Yeah. When my wife asks what's wrong, I just got to say nothing. Don't worry about it. Honey, we're pregnant. Damn it.
Now what you have to do to convince your wife is to, uh,
prove to her that a snow machine is not a sunk cost.
It's an investment in your fatherhood.
You know, you are going to be so much more relaxed as a dad.
You're gonna be so much better of a parent
by having this snow machine in your life.
And from a very practical standpoint,
it's an escape vehicle.
If you guys get a lot of snow out there in Montana,
what if a grizzly bear comes and knock
and tears apart your Ferrari?
You guys have nowhere to go.
You need that snow machine.
Oh, absolutely. I think you hit it on the head when I was told when I become a dad,
I'm going to have to fall into one of the dad categories and I can't play golf for shit.
So I'll be the snowmobile dad.
That's right. Exactly. Exactly.
You know, you still could do the golf because a lot of us still can't play
golf for shit and that doesn't stop us.
So yeah, you could do you could do golf on because a lot of us still can't play golf for shit and that doesn't stop us. So yeah, you could do.
You could do a golf on a snow machine. Have that be winter golf.
Have that be your golf card.
Just paint the golf balls neon orange.
Yeah. You can even do like a golf polo on the snow machine. Like,
you know, that would be fun. That's a whole new sport.
That's how you pay for it.
That is the best redneck sport I've ever heard of.
Yes, and we just invented it here, okay?
So get the snow machine, it's winter now,
and start shooting videos of you playing snow low,
that snow polo, and you're gonna, you are going to be a multimillionaire,
my guy. And then you can have all the babies you want. Oh, that is genius. Okay. I might
know that. Do you think the YouTube handle snow low has been taken? No, not a chance.
No, it is just came out of the dome. Yeah. And this comes out later. So you have time to get that handle.
Yeah, get the handle and start shooting these videos, man.
We got, you got money to make and say,
babe, think about all the kids we can have
when we're multimillionaires.
Does she want more than one kid?
She, she wants the one,
but I keep telling her either two or four.
So we don't end up with the oldest, middle, she wants the one, but I keep telling her either two or four. So we don't end up with the oldest middle, the youngest syndrome.
I got news for you. That syndrome exists no matter how many kids you got. I'm one at 12.
We've just got like 10 middle children. We all have attention issues. That's why I'm
on this podcast right now.
That's a I'm on this podcast right now.
That's a great point. Now, one thing to think about too,
save some money on the hospital bills.
Just, your wife's a nurse.
She's gotta know what to do.
She knows how to do it.
Have a home birth.
Yeah, you guys got a good bathtub?
I got a bathtub.
We can do that.
I see she's really, she gets cold really quickly. So I
would have to be just filling the water and empty and then keeping her warm the whole
time. We could, we could do that. But I think, I think the difficulty would be more on my
side for that kind of a pregnancy. That's too much work for me.
We'll get yourself a mid wife cost money, Charlie, less money towards the snow machine. We'll give the mid wife free snow machine. You brought up YouTube. There's YouTube as a video for everything.
There's gotta be a tutorial on how to have a home birth on YouTube. Yeah. We know half
of your electrical work is you YouTube in it before you go in and do this. And the time
that he electrocuted himself in front of all those people is he didn't look at it on YouTube or he was looking at YouTube while he was doing it.
That's a great idea. So I'll tell my pregnant nurse wife to just pick up some, uh, some
overtime shifts. Then I can get my snow machine.
That's not what we said. Okay. That is the worst. That's the worst idea ever.
I love, I love how our solution isn't just trade in your Ferrari for something a little
bit more economical. You can't do that.
No.
Okay. So the best thing I'm hearing right now is home birth and then I can have them
both.
Well, don't forget Snow Low. All right. Yeah home birth. And then I can have them both. Well, don't
forget snow low. All right. Yeah. Yeah. And snow low and snow low. I mean, how hard can
it be? I, you know, I went through it once. It's really just getting under center and
going blue 42, hot brown, hot brown, that hot baby comes out. I've been listening to the, I've been listening to you betcha podcast about Ryan's birth and sounds
like all he had to do was hold a leg and play air guitar. I figure I could do that. That's
it, man. That's all it is. I was a smart one though. I didn't have to do any work. The
nurse asked me if one to hold the leg. I said, no, you got it. What else am I paying you for? You know, I'm not, I'm not one to
fall for the scam where you go to those restaurants where you have to cook the food and you pay
more money to do it. I think those are dumb.
Yeah. That's like going to the, going to the grocery store and you checking it out. You're
like, do I work here now? Self checkout is-checkout is a racket. Self-checkout for a baby. So I can kind of get, skip some
things past the scanner. Oh man. Now we'll congratulations on both your baby and your
new snow machine. Do you know what you're having yet or are you guys waiting?
We just had our first, our first
ultrasound, but she's going to want to do some kind of a baby reveal. And I told her
we can do a baby reveal as long as we burned down a little bit of forest. You sound like
the rest of the country. Oh, perfect. Perfect. Okay. What gender reveals should he do, Charlie? He should do it. Okay, so you get, you tell her that it's going to be either you guys get a pink snow machine
or a blue snow machine.
Yeah, there you go.
But really it's going to be a red snow machine because you probably don't want a pink one.
Although a pink snow machine could kind of be cool.
Or you put some sort of fluid in the exhaust.
Well, that's going to ruin it.
But wouldn't it be cool if you could like
find the color of your exhaust?
Yeah, no, that's it.
Okay.
So your first snow ball game,
you're going to reveal the sex of the baby.
Yeah.
It's going to, instead of having a normal ball,
it's going to be one that explodes on the impact.
Yes.
As a smoke thing, like they do with the golf balls. Yes. Yes. Yeah. It's going to be one that explodes on the impact. Yes. As a smoke thing, like they do with the golf balls.
Yes. Yes.
Yeah. It's going to be genius.
Yeah. Imagine a slow mo video of him ripping on a snow machine with his
with his.
It's a boy.
Millions of views, millions of views.
I just thought of something too, Charlie. What we could do. Millions of views, millions of views.
Just thought of something too, Charlie.
We could do, if you guys wanted to let us know,
we could do the first ever bellied up gender reveal call.
Oh yeah.
Just throwing it out there.
We can give you a little spark here for your new Snow Low YouTube channel.
Oh, that's genius.
We would love that.
That's a great idea.
So the way you say this to your wife is,
honey, I'm not buying a snow machine.
Don't worry.
I am starting a side business.
And buy the machine, buy the exploding golf balls.
And then here's the good thing.
It takes a lot of time for businesses to make money.
So this is all a write off.
You're basically making money.
You can't afford not to buy this snow machine
is what I'm saying.
This is a ski don't test me right now
cause I know what I'm doing.
You like that ski do?
So don't.
Let's not skip over the fact that he's pretty keen
on us doing the gender reveal party.
Oh, so are we going to Montana?
No, he's got to call in
and we'll review it live on the podcast.
That's true.
So now you have proof to give the IRS
when they obviously are gonna question this.
Absolutely.
Well, we could do both.
During the first snow low game,
you guys could be the commentator. That's it
Yes. Yes. Now you have plenty of proof to give the IRS when they come a callin
Yep, exactly
Perfect. Well, we got a business here set up. We got a baby on the way. I
I'm feeling pretty good. Just don't kill yourself with electricity before now and then.
Okay. So my main goal right now is to not die from electricity and to buy a snow machine
and convince the wife. It is a business venture. I like it. Yeah. And the home birth. Yep.
And that's all you got to do. Okay. Okay. I think we can figure that out.
Wonderful. Well, Connor, another, another issue solved here on the bellied up podcast.
Thank you for calling in.
Well, thanks boys. I really appreciate it. It was super cool talking to you. Yeah. Before
you go, I got one more question. All right. All right. As a foreman and electrician. I want you to give me the top tips of being a construction
foreman. Okay. You nailed it on the head by saying, don't get out of your truck. Unfortunately,
I'm behind, so I have to get out of my truck, but you can bet you, I walk around and I look
at one of my guys while they're working and I don't say nothing. I look at them and I
kind of look around and I just walk away. I don't say a. I look at them and I kind of look around and I just
walk away. I don't say a single word.
Yeah. Then he starts doing all sorts of paranoia in your head. You know, just your presence
is, is making productivity more. Yeah. It's a, it's a mind game. Absolutely. Judgmentalize.
I like it. What else? Let's see. The other thing that I like to do is I like to, I like to call one of my guys and be really seriously. Hey, I need you to come out to the truck right now immediately.
And then when they get out here, I just say, Hey, how's your day going?
It's getting kind of boring here sitting in the truck by myself and I've listened to every podcast I could. So what's going on, man? I just wanted you to come over.
So I had an excuse to roll down the window cause it was getting kind of hot in
here.
And he's, and he's wondering why he's behind and he has to actually get out of
the truck.
I liked that. Yeah. I mean, for everything I've heard, you're not lying.
You are a foreman. You got that
thing dialed in.
I listened to, I listened to your guys' podcasts every day, especially by you doing concrete
and being down in a hole. So I've, I've taken all that straight to heart.
Yeah. You got it easy. You know, you're usually working in an enclosed area, you know, you don't have to get all muddy and dirty and deal with people who live out
of a cardboard box and have to bike to work every day.
You know, you, you, you're, you're the high class.
That's exactly right.
We're better than everyone.
And then, and don't forget, you really are an electrician. Aren't you? I haven't
touched a broom in years. Yeah. Someone will clean that up. Are you a master electrician
or a or what? Nope. I'm a, I'm a journeyman electrician. That's, and that's all you gotta be to really
be a foreman around here.
Do you have aspirations to be a master electrician or no?
I, so the first time I took my journeyman test, I got a 38% and I got lucky to pass
the test in the first place. I think we're going to leave her here. You can get a 38% on your journeyman test and first time, first time. He had to
then go pass it. No, that was the first try. This is the second try. I sat in my truck
and, and a toke down a little bit of electric lettuce and then went in and passed it. Oh, is that how you get electrocuted yourself too much electric lettuce?
We, we keep things interesting around here. We, we, we, we got it. We got it. We got to
make it fun. Yeah, that's good. I like this though. He knows his, he knows his ceiling. He's like, this is as high as I go. Literally.
Oh man. Well, thank you, Connor. We appreciate you. My guy. Yeah. Thanks. Thanks for talking
to me. You boys watch out for deer. All right. You too. Congratulations too, by the way.
Yeah. Congrats. Hey, thanks guys. I'll talk to you. All right. Good one. Oh man. He's great. Yeah. I would
love to work for him. He sounds awesome as a boss, you know, a lot of good energy in
that one. You ever electrocute yourself, Charlie? Yeah, I have. I told you about that. I did
on my water heater. Really? Yeah. What were you doing? I was adjusting the dial of how
hot the water can get. And I just touched the wrong thing. The nastiest shock, the nastiest shock. And when I came
to had an epiphany, a periphery, said, I need to hire someone to do this instead. Yeah.
They're there. You know, there I, I told you about the extension cord when I was a kid
splicing it and not pulling out of the wall.
And I've electrocuted myself a couple of times since I did avoid a massive electrocution
though.
I was fixing this washing machine or sorry, dishwasher and it had all the water coming
up.
So I was clearing it out on the bottom and then I was like, Oh, this is still, it still
had water coming out. I was like, this is a deeper issue. So I pull it out, you know, and then
I get underneath and I'm messing with the live wires and keep them on. I don't know
what the hell I'm doing. I'm just trying to see if something's not like hooked up or whatever.
And then all of a sudden I was like, wet hands, live electricity. This is stupid. So then
I went down and I shut it off, but I could almost kill myself on that one
I watched my dad almost die. Really? How'd he almost do it at their lake cabin? They were getting rid of a
Baseboard heater. Oh hooked up to the electricity
Yeah, he had thought that the electrician came in and made sure it wasn't live
Mm-hmm. Well, he found out the hard way it was live.
Sparks flew, emotions ran high.
And we all were kind of like standing there
and obviously he was pretty, he was pretty frazzled.
Oh, he was frazzled.
Yeah, he was just kind of what's happening.
And we look at the, cause he was gonna cut the wire
so we could take it off the wall.
And there was a little like indent,
perfect little semicircle of where he tried to cut the wire.
It melted the metal that he was.
Shit. Oh, my God.
So yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
If you are standing on the ground, you are the ground.
I could have had a lot more baggage not growing up without a dad, you know.
Wow. Even more than I already got
Well, we're just happy buds. Okay. Yeah. Yeah, so it's a lesson for all you guys out there. Yeah
if you're gonna
Di DIY e L e C T R I C T Y
YouTube it twice. Yeah, you tube it. Cut ones. Do some to make sure that
the wire is not alive. Yeah. Turn, turn your power off.
Charlie, should we take another color? Let's do it folks. The big game, the game, the game
that's so big, we can't even mention its actual name legally, but it's coming up the one on Sunday, the Sunday
game and it starts with an S and it's, it's cool. And I'm going to have a big old who's
in the game, Charlie. Oh, the Packers are obviously playing. I hope. And anyways, while you're watching the game, the big game, you
guys, the best way to do it is the best way to enjoy is tip it on back with a little tip
beat Charlie. Here's a view of me watching the game this weekend. Ready? Yeah. Ah, this
tippy cow is great. Go team. That's really good. That's a live look in in my living
room. No, I mean that, that makes sense. That makes a lot of sense. I like your slurp. Somebody
should, Oh yeah. Yeah. There's nothing better than a slurp in the microphone.
Guys, this game, this weekend's game tip tip on back glass, the tippy cow will
be that much better. And the shirt and we have a shirt miles. I guarantee you when I'm
watching the big game, I'm going to be wearing this big shirt. That's an it's now actually
this, this well fitting shirt. And if you guys want one of these shirts, just be a caller.
We're going to send that to some of y'all. Also, you can go buy it at YouBetcha.com.
Oh, YouBetcha.
Oh, YouBetcha.
Oh, YouBetcha.
Oh, YouBetcha.com.
Yeah.
Oh, YouBetcha.com.
Miles, I was in the snow storm the other day,
and I was behind this big old semi truck,
and it didn't have its lights on, the tail lights.
And luckily, I'm such a good driver,
because if I wasn't, I would've gone straight into the bag.
I would've given that,
what do you call it again?
What did I just call it?
That semi trucking enema.
Enema with your own blood or what?
An enema is where you go up the deal, right?
Yeah, I, yeah.
Yeah, I would have given that sucker a colonoscopy,
in other words.
Yeah, you get what I'm saying.
You would have been a human camera.
I would have been a human camera.
What's going on in here?
Yeah, and then I would have needed a lawyer
because I don't think I'd be making it
out of that tailpipe alive.
So, or whoever my
living people were, but they would have called one eight five five Nikolai cause Russell
over at Nikolai, man, he'll get you that money. You deserve. If you, if you're tailgate or
riding a safe distance behind a semi without its lights on, definitely no one say you're
tailgating. So yeah, call Nicolay
or go to Nicolaylaw.com. Yes, sir. All right guys. Well we have David. David is a dairy
farmer and a crop farmer and he's dating a vegetarian Charlie. Whoa, David, how is that going? It's slowly, but surely I'm trying to get her back into eating meat. It's not working
too well. I'll be honest, but we got to try chicken once in four months. So there's at
least that.
And you're getting it. You're getting, no, why is she a vegetarian?
Does she not like the taste of meat?
Is she against, uh, animal things?
Is it environmental issues?
What's her, what's her motivation here?
I think it was a diet thing to start with.
And then she just kind of stuck with it.
Oh, okay.
The one time she did try chicken, it upset her stomach. So yeah, kind of hard
convincing her again.
Well, that's what I've heard. It's if you're a hardcore vegetarian, it, you have to ease
yourself back into eating meat. That actually what's kind of like, you know, the first time
you start drinking, you're going to get drunk pretty fast. You got to ease yourself into it. Ease yourself back. You can't drink a 30 rack the first time you do it. Yeah, you're gonna get drunk pretty fast. You got to ease yourself into it
Use yourself back you can't drink a 30 rack the first time you do it
Well, I think chickens a good starter one right there. You don't want to go ripe for the
Well, have you tried squirrel yet?
Yeah, I would get quite the crazy look there really don't tell her that it's squirrel it's chicken. Yeah
I've never had squirrel. You never had squirrel? No, it's just like a well known thing up here. Where
are you from? I'm from up here, but I've never had squirrels. So that's why I'm a little. Wow. Yeah. Well, where's up here? He's from up here. Yeah. I'll be up there.
I'm from Carver County in Minnesota. Oh yeah. Yeah. Squirrel is actually a,
it's a pretty, uh, uh, I mean, there's a lot of squirrels out there and they are
tasty. So, uh, and they're, they've got really good reproduction.
So it's a sustainable meat. If you're looking, um, what are the tactics that you've tried
to convince her to start eating meat?
Um, well she likes Indian food. I'm still trying to get to there cause that's a whole
new world for me, but they eat chicken here and there. So that was the one time I got her to at least try it. And so, but yeah, yeah.
That's a whole new world I'm trying to get into as well. I've never had Indian food before
last week. And then also it's going to be interesting to tell dad, cause you know, we
got what a whole barn just full of beef cattle and just tell them, yeah, she's not going to eat that. Oh no. So you haven't told your dad that she's
a vegetarian. No. Okay. How do you think that's going to go? He's going to give me quite the
weird look. Yeah. This is the real coming out in the Midwest. You know, you're coming out as a vegetarian.
I mean, yeah.
It's like.
Yeah, how would you know if I told them I was a vegetarian,
I'd be outcast, so.
Yeah, and a dairy farm family,
well that makes a lot of sense.
Yeah, I feel like,
does she have,
what if you tell her it's tofu? You know, you feel like, uh, does she have, um, what if you,
what if you tell her it's toe food? You know, you put in, uh,
some stuff you say, yeah, that's a toe food. She don't like toe food. Jeez.
What about finger food? Would you, uh, you like what I did there?
My house. It was funny. Um, okay. Okay.
So she's not a toe food person. The Indian food, I feel like could be your
thing. You put enough spices and, and fragrances in the food. You kind of don't always know
what you're eating.
That's the move. So he's a Northern Minnesota guys from up there. And if I know anything
about Minnesotans, they don't necessarily dive head first into spicy foods. So, and so I think what you got to do is
You got to go an eye for an eye. So you have to tell her you know what you love Indian food
I'm gonna try the hottest Indian food you got and you suffer through that you suffer through when you're eating it you suffer
through
Pushing it out the other end and you go all right I did mine it's time
for you to have a nice old rib eye I mean this just sounds like a disaster
for a new relationship I'm gonna try spicy food and you try eating meat for
the first time you guys are gonna spend half the time being like, I just need to use the bathroom real quick. I'll make sure you got good plumbing. Yeah.
Have the plunger there. Don't make the mistake of having the plunger at the downstairs bathroom.
And then you gotta do the walk, the waddle of shame. Well, that's my parents had one.
First of all, plungers aren't that expensive. Are they Charlie? No, no. My parents had one
plunger and it was, you know, from, had to been from the eighties. Oh, one of the red
ones with the wooden stick. 100%. And, and for whatever reason, we couldn't get a couple
extra plungers and just, you know, my, the bathroom that me and my brothers were in growing
up was all the way on the top floor. We had a two story house and for whatever reason we kept the plunger
in the basement. So every single time you'd have to do the walk of shame and walk downstairs
to get the plunger.
They knew after you've been sitting for like 20 minutes upstairs and you do that, that second flight of stairs they knew.
Yeah. Yeah.
100 percent. And then the worst is the third walk of shame when you got to go get the snake.
You know, that's the that's the icing on the cake right there.
Yeah, you know, I could see that that she we started off with chicken.
I don't know, I don't even know where you go from here.
How did you meet this gal?
Wasn't on Farmers Only, I'll tell you that much.
No, no, it was on some dating app,
but I don't even remember which one.
How many dating apps are you on?
I was on like a few of them, but I just, I don't know. I
couldn't remember. He just won right there. Um,
you think that this gal is wife material? Heck yeah. Oh, he's excited about it.
Despite the vegetarian issues. Yeah. I mean like I wake up in the morning and
then I go take my morning dump or whatever and I come out and all of a sudden my bed is made and then no matter what I'm cooking like I wake up in the morning and then I go take my morning dump or
whatever and I come out and all of a sudden my bed is made.
And then no matter what I'm cooking, she's always doing the dishes without me
asking.
Yeah.
Is she smart and have a good personality too?
Yeah.
Yeah.
We're trying to save you here right now.
It's 20, 24 for God sakes.
You can't just say, yeah, she's a real good bedmaker. I'll tell you
that much.
No, but she does all the things about like having to be asked. Those are quick examples.
David, what do you do for her? David? Yeah, I don't even the last girl I was dating. Every time I come home from work, I had to tell her to start dinner. It pissed me off. You know, I get
home at five 15 every day. Why do I gotta tell you where's the non-vegetarian food?
David, what do you do for her?
Pretty much the same thing in a turn. Then. Yeah. I cover most of the bills and such,
at least when we go out, you know, not that money is, you know, an issue as far as like
when our relationship that's far from what the main focus is.
I love how he's like, I love how he's like, yeah, it's an equal relationship. She does
all the work and then I just pay for stuff. What did she do for a living? She takes care of old people.
Okay. Well, that's great. That's great. That's what you can, she probably became a vegetarian
cause she grinded up one too many hamburgers and put it in a smoothie. It's kind of the
opposite. She's fine with how the meat is made, but you don't like, you know, how it
comes out of a straw. Yeah. Yeah. I could see that. Well, I, so, I mean, it doesn't sound like it's too much of an issue. Sounds like she's
willing to try it out. She's willing to try it. And also what if she just wants to be
a vegetarian? How, how big of a problem is that going to be?
I don't think it would be too big of a problem. Like I'm just never going to quit eating
meat though. I told her that and she understood that she's going to be my parents having to get over it.
Yeah. Okay. Let's do that. How are you going to break the news to your parents?
Well, like any other time, probably a week before I introduced them, I'm going to let
them know and then just see how that goes from there and just see the awkward stare. What I would do if I were you is I would go over, have
a nice steak dinner with your family. And then right before you leave, just leave a
note on the table and get out of there. Yeah, that would be interesting. Yeah. Give it a
little time to blow over. I got a brother-in-law, that's a V word, and-
A virgin?
No, they got another on the way, actually.
They're doing it.
But I gotta tell you this much,
my dad, you know, my dad, he's kind of a,
he's a meat eater himself, and he just,
the way it works is he gives every inlaw crap for something.
So that's just the thing.
He gives, you know, my brother in law crap for every time, you know,
that and his tattoos.
And so he'll just roast them like, oh,
and then we cook the impossible burgers for him every time.
So every time my dad's grill me is like yeah, we got to get Gabe is
bitch burger
So I
Imitation me and that's not something I can stomach either
Yeah, have you tried it?
Yeah, I've tried veggie burgers and yeah you if you haven't tried it you're not missing out I'll tell you that
Yeah, I've tried a few bean burgers or whatever. They're not that bad to be honest with you. It's all in how you season it
And how much ketchup you dip it in? Yeah, you put enough ketchup on that thing. You can't tell the difference
I'll tell you that much right there
You put enough ketchup on that thing. You can't tell the difference. I'll tell you that much right there.
OK, what about this? What about if you go vegetarian for a week and she goes keto for a week?
Right. Keto is where you eat a bunch of meat, isn't it?
I don't know. She goes she goes meat for a week. You go vegetarian for a week. Would you do a little trading places with your girlfriend?
Yeah. Yeah, I'd try it. I don't think I'd get her to hop on that boat.
It'd probably have to be an uneven equation, but it would be worth the shot.
You think, do you think you could go vegetarian for a week?
Um, yeah, yeah. I mean, I definitely
Gorge myself after that week, but I think I could stomach it for a week.
All right. Well, maybe try that. Maybe say, hey, I'm willing to sacrifice.
You're willing to sacrifice and see how it goes from there. All right, David.
Yeah. All right. Well, thanks for calling in my guy.
Tell your girlfriend when he says hi and your dad too.
All right, thank you.
All right, take care.
We'll see ya.
Good on him though, it's not a deal breaker.
No.
He must really like this gal.
Yeah, yeah he is.
I'm not sure where up there is, but you know.
And then when he said it, I couldn't really hear it. I'm not sure where up there is but I you know, nobody said it
I couldn't really hear I think up there was like
1954
Yeah, I go take a dump and I come back and the beds made nice David nice
noise noise noise
That's pretty nice. Yeah, it does sound nice
Well, me and Ann haven't made a
bed in the how many years we've been together. I don't know why you go making a bed. It's
like a tie in your shoes when you take them off.
They say it sets the tone for the rest of the day. Oh yeah. One of those deals to be
honest with you though. There was this period of time where I was making my bed and it gives
you a little dopamine right away, a little motivation.
Really?
Yeah, but I don't do it anymore.
Yeah. Yeah.
Not enough dopamine.
No, no.
I got other things on my mind.
Instead I just scroll on my phone endlessly, you know?
It gives me enough dopamine.
To get through like the next-
Yeah.
So the time that I could be making my bed,
I just scroll on my phone right when I wake up,
get the dopamine I need and then I'm off on my day.
Oh God, yeah.
Just build the plaque on your brain.
Yeah.
Well, Charlie, I think that's another episode,
good episode of the Bellied Up Podcast.
Yes, it is, Myles.
It's been a pleasure sitting here with you
at the Heller House in Milwaukee.
Yeah, folks, if you haven't been here,
you gotta get in here.
They're a great group of people people and it's a nice bar.
Nice bar with bowling.
So guys, thanks for tuning in.
We'll see you next one.
And as always remember to do what Charlie tip your bartender.
See you.
