Espresso shot 192 with my dude Ray Hensley.
What's up?
But before we get into it, I have a little news.
For 86 News, I'm Johnson.
And I'm Chet.
Good heavy Chet. Good heavy Chet. In our global news segment, residents of a small town in Wales have been terrified by a quite unusual culprit.
A squirrel went on a two-day rampage and bit 18 people.
And now some people are afraid to leave their homes.
Yeah, Chad.
A tiny squirrel did this.
And it says here, the detective that investigated the squirrel rampage labeled the incident as a nutcase.
the incident as a nutcase.
What do you have on this, Jim?
Reports were also saying that
when questioned by authorities,
the detective in charge said the culprit was being
squirrely.
If I'm doing this, you can't do that.
We're just messing around too much.
But in all seriousness.
We're having fun here.
In all seriousness.
They said the tiny culprit boarded an airplane and fled the country after the incident.
And now he's classified as a flying squirrel.
Oh, my God.
That's rich.
Oh, my God.
That's rich.
It's also reported that his first day in jail with his tight little body,
the squirrel's going to be in the shower with a mouth full of nuts.
No, this is getting out of hand.
And if it's not a mouth full, it's definitely going to be a chestnut.
Okay.
Okay.
Taking it too far.
That's a corny joke. So.
Brady Sakes News.
I am Johnson.
And I'm Chet.

We were on tour in like central Michigan, like near Kalamazoo kind of area.
And we did this show at this barn.
It was so fucking fun.
And then that night at the barn, we got fucking trashed because there was like a bunch of
bar.
It sounds dangerous.
There's a bunch of white guys at a barn with like tools on the walls, drunk.
And I was so fucking.
Let's harvest some corn.
I got so shit faced.
I do not remember the ball dropping.
And I woke up in the morning on a trampoline like three miles away in somebody's backyard.
Somebody else's?
Yeah, I don't even know who the fucking person was.
But I woke up on a trampoline.
That's so crazy.
So drunk you wake up in somebody else's property.
In just my boxers.
Dude, and you think like out there in the country where a barn is,
some guy just would have been like, who's there?
I don't know.
I was in like somebody's fucking backyard on a trampoline.
Fucking burnt. I know you't know. I was in somebody's fucking backyard on a trampoline. Fucking burnt.
I know you pissed yourself.
I probably did.
Just solo?
There wasn't anybody else on the trampoline?
No, it was just me.
I'm surprised some crows weren't picking at your back or something.
But I did hang my jeans and my t-shirt up properly on the edge of the trampoline.
So I wasn't a total animal that night.
Not a total piece of shit.
He made sure his jeans weren't wrinkly.
Yeah.
But you're face down in some asshole's trampoline.
Dude, I was, I think I've only in my life only had like one or two New Year's kisses.
What about you?
I've had one that was random, which is the best.
And then the other times, I don't know if I, yeah, I had a legit one.
But one was just super random.
Like everybody at a house party and I was just like, fuck it.
You're just like partner up.
I'm kissing this guy.
This guy.
Come here, bro. Old Derekrick james gonna be jealous of
that he's like oh fuck we gotta be somewhere near bed what are you doing new year's he calls me 50
times do anything tonight bro 11 59 he's like where the fuck are you
he just drives his car into my front window.
Running around the city like Flash, just looking for you.
That dude wants you so bad.
Shut the fuck up.
Dude's in a committed relationship.
What are you doing, bro?
Where are you?
It's 11.59.
As soon as you give him the word, that shit's over.
The word?
Yeah, like, hey, Derek, come over.
I want to fuck.
He's like, hey, we're breaking up.
I got to go.
I give him the word every day.
Do you?
Yeah.
Lucky.
Have you?
So what were your kiss situations?
One of them was random.
You just looked to your left and did it?
Yeah, we just partnered up.
I was like, hey, so you don't have anybody?
Was it like a Josh?
Who was it?
It was a Chet. Where do you think I got that name from?
It's fresh in my head.
No, I don't remember this girl's name.
The other one was
just an old friend of mine from high school.
We kissed on New Year's.
Oh. Yeah.
Yeah, it's a weird thing.
Every time it's going down,'m like is anybody does anybody know like i always think everybody forgot about the kiss part it's like
five four and i'm like frantically looking around the room i'm like who am i gonna kiss and i feel
like nobody else is doing that yeah like i was like can i lock eyes with somebody yeah like i'm
like damn you guys are are still just carrying on,
eating food and shit.
It's time to kiss.
It's because I think most people plan that shit ahead.
Oh, no.
I'm like, we got five seconds.
Let's go.
I need a date for New Year's.
And then, yeah.
We're just like.
Oh, that's what the whole New Year's date thing means,
that we're going to kiss later.
I never understood that.
Yeah, yeah.
I've never had a date.
I've never ever planned it that far no way because
the five seconds out i procrastinate because the girl my high school friend that i kissed on new
year's a few years back she just showed up to a show that i was at and then i was like hey you
want to and she's like yeah you asked her yeah you pre-kiss asked yeah i was like why not
and then it was like a like a thing, and it's fucking awkward.
It is!
It's never like a smooth kiss.
It's never like a smooth situation.
It's like, well, I guess we have to do this now.
It's so weird.
You know what I mean?
It's not spontaneous at all.
It's just fucking, yeah.
You're like doing that kiss that they do in movies where they just like.
And you're like standing next to each other just awkwardly, just like.
Three, two, one. that kiss that they do in movies where they just like and you're like standing next to each other just awkwardly just like three two one and then you just fucking kiss and he's like oh see you later bye and you just fuck off never talk to him again yeah you haven't talked to her since i'll
see you later jessica she's like it's not jessica i can't hear you the music's too loud see ya
yeah it's weird.
That's why you gotta do it in the last five seconds.
The last five seconds?
The last five seconds is kiss time.
Just grab somebody and fucking kiss them.
I don't think you can do that anymore, though.
It's New Year's.
That's how you get fucking in trouble.
Alright, let's go to this dude's voice message.
King Ziggy.
What's your crazy New York's Eve story?
New York's Eve.
This one necessarily counts as New Year's Eve because it was already New Year's Day at this point.
We was walking out of Taps and Dolls.
That's a dangerous place.
Downtown.
That's a shitty place to walk on the sidewalk i see a dude
in a cowboy hat on bullshit with the girl that i came with my homie comes over tugs his mustache
because he had a handlebar mustache waxed hanging down his upper lip you don't fuck with that dude
and bro kicked my homie in the knee. So obviously,
like any good homie had to do,
I pushed him to the ground
and I punched him in the face.
And before I could beat him up anymore,
my homies
pulled me off of him and we left.
So I don't know if that's necessarily
New Year's Eve, but it was definitely
a crazy New Year's experience.
This guy beat the shit out of a cowboy that guy has never watched this podcast there wasn't
near enough man-on-man action in that shit like you gotta put something like yeah you gotta kiss
him or something you gotta kiss him or fuck him or do something like he's like so you know bros
being bros i pushed him to the ground and i hopped on top of him and i started making out with him
i don't know if that's new year's eve or not but that's my crazy story
i wish that would have been a that's i mean it's a it's a cool story i guess you fought a guy
you fought tony foxworthy congrats
tony foxworthy is our friend.
That's a comedian.
He has a big curly mustache.
And he's a ginger.
It's gross.
Angelica Christine.
I don't think she knows that I'm going to say this on here,
but I'm going to do it.
She didn't leave a voice message,
so I got to do what I got to do.
She goes, I slipped.
Read it exactly how she did it.
I'm going to.
What's your craziest New Year's Eve story?
I slipped and skinned my enter shin at a trap house.
So it's Haps and Dolls.
Didn't feel a thing.
Then I made a bed at the trap house in IU.
And took a pic because I lied to my mom about where i was and she asked for a pic of me in bed and my first new york and i keep saying new york's eve my first
new york's eve kiss was a girl all in one night drove all the way to Carmel the next morning and skated. Nice.
That's pretty crazy.
If you did see NYE, all capitalized, doesn't it look like...
Welcome to NYE.
Doesn't it look like the stock market or something like that?
Yeah, like rolling across the bottom of your screen.
NYE up 30 points.

That's pretty crazy, though.
You have to send a picture like picture evidence to your

Yeah, just a pallet.
Fluff some pillows up.
She lived like a homeless person inside of a trap house that night.
Just fucking cardboard boxes and shit.
All in one night, drove all the way home to Carmel the next morning.
Complete opposite.
And she's from Carmel?
And ice skated.
She's from Carmel.
She was at IU.
This girl didn't even know what a trap house is.
She's just like, yeah, I'm living fucking great. It it was like a fucking regular house it was a one-story house
and she's like is this a trap like it was a cottage this is what this is what the peasants
live like this is nice a trap house with a deck and a hot tub

Is there a pool table down here too?
This is disgusting.
It's an air hockey table.
Dartboard.
Yeah.
It's a dartboard like without the soft padding for the dart.
She's like, I can't do this anymore. Yeah.
I got to go back to Carmel.
The drywall has just spots all around the dartboard.
People are missing.
And she's like, ugh. I'm out. I got to go ice skating. This is a trap house. I have to go ice to Carmel. The drywall has just spots all around the dartboard for people missing. And she's like, ugh.

You weren't that fucked up
if you drove all the way to Carmel
and then went skating.
That drive home from IU the next morning, though.
You ever done that one?
All the way back to Carmel?
Just back to the States.
Oh, yeah.
37 seems like the longest fucking road in the world
when you're on your way it's never not been under construction oh it's yeah same with like 69
fucking 45 year old dads the orange barrel state you know look there's some arrow there's orange
barrels right outside this fucking window here where do they store all those there's places on
37 where they just have them fucking stacked up to the sky.
No way.
Yeah.
They're in a building?
Or they're just like out in the middle of a cornfield?
They're out in the wild.
They're just out in the street.
Yeah, they're just out in the...
Shut up.
They just stack all...
I'm always like, where do they put all those barrels?
There's 40 million of them.
There used to be.
I haven't been down that way in a while.
But if you drive south of Greenwood on 37 towards Martinsville, there's a...
On the right, there was a big stash
of them out there.
Like how many though?
Like 13 or like 13 million?
Like 13, I mean.
I'm picturing you
seeing like seven
and being like,
oh, that's where
they keep those.
That's where all,
well yeah,
but that's the only seven
they're not fucking using.
The rest of them
are out on the streets.
They're all fucking,
they're all in use.
They're being put to work. You ever hit one of those? No, when you hit a fucking, yeah,'re all fucking, they're all in use. They're being put to work.
You ever hit one of those?
No, when you hit a fucking,

a little bit.
Some of them will, yeah.
Some of them are like full of shit.
Those ones right there.
I've always wanted to see

But yeah, so they have them like stacked up and shit.
It's pretty fucking cool.

For the longest time, I always wanted to work at that little booth inside of a parking garage.
That does sound like a fun job, right?
Doesn't it sound like comforting?
Comforting, yeah.
You just sit in that bitch all day.
You really don't have to pay attention to anybody.

National Balloon Ascension Day.
These days are so whack.
What does that mean?
You ever play that balloon game, though?
Like in your living room
where you hit the floor?
Oh, that's the best game.
The most intense game ever.
You won't try it on her or anything. When you were a child?
Oh, today. That should
be an ESPN thing. I never, yeah, it should be.
Like on one of those days where ESPN
has no, they can't cover anything and they
just do like World Series of Poker.
They should just do the balloon game. They made fucking tag a thing
where there's just a bunch of dudes running around. That looks crazy.
That looks intense, too.
How do they not slip and just fuck their whole brain up on the monkey bars?
Just fucking spine it.
Ooh, that would hurt.
Seriously, I've never seen anybody fall in those.
That's all I'm looking for the whole time is during tag.
I'm like, fall, fall, fall, fall, fall, fall, fall, fall.
Or just misjudge a jump and just boom.
Just fucking dome it.
Every time.
Every time.
But if they can
make tag a fucking
cool game
there's
they gotta play
balloon game
play balloon
fucking sick
we could be a team
dude yeah
I've never gone
harder at anything
in my life
I played fucking
baseball through school
all that other shit
and I was just like
nah this is alright
but that balloon game
you throw a balloon
in the air
I'm gonna make sure
that shit stays in the air
it's never touching the rug but like the places they need is alright. But that balloon game, you throw a balloon in the air, I'm gonna make sure that shit stays in the air. It's never touching the rug.
But like the places they need to play if they make balloon game on ESPN.
They need just living rooms with like lamps and shit.
Elvis figurines.
Yeah, there needs to be shit in the middle of the floor that's like a coffee table.
Just normal shit.
There needs to be a couch, yeah.
There needs to be a TV on the wall.
There needs to be everything that you'd find in a fucking living room right there.
Not like the tag shit where they kind of...
No, they like made it cool.
That should just be on a like rusty ass playground.
Yeah, exactly.
There needs to be a fucking one of those metal slides that you burn your ass cheeks on.
There needs to be a fucking...
There needs to be that fucking...
Monkey bars that you're getting stabbed on.
You need to get tetanus shots after tag.
That little fucking plastic spiral thing. You tag somebody with that shit, they're going to know because you're going to get tetanus shots after tag that little fucking plastic spiral thing you
tag somebody with that shit they're gonna know because you get lit the fuck up with a shock and
oh you know what i mean hey that's the most dangerous piece of equipment i've ever seen

People just passing out.
Just getting wrecked on a fucking un-
Motorcycled.
Who's not watching that who's not yeah
dude yeah chain swings and shit oh yeah remember just going so high and then just at the at the
top of it just going up jumping how do we both knees how do we all not have fucked up acls and
knees and shit i think we do i mean probably do. Maybe we're blaming it on old age, but it's actually
because of the shit we did when we were kids.
We're like, ah, damn, I'm 30
and my back is sore. I don't know what's going on.
It's probably when I cut the grass. I was like, no,
it's when you got underdogged from 40 feet
in the air.
Dude, underdogs is the
most dangerous thing. Dude, if somebody said
underdog on the playground, I was like, oh, shit.
It's because you don't, nobody ever goes fucking out and up with an underdog.
No.
It's always straight up.
Straight up.
Ah!

So they just fucking.
Dude.
So your lower back's like.
Just fucking accordion it.
I don't know what's wrong with my back.
Oh!
Fucking underdog.
Dude, that was where we all became fucking just tough and resilient.
Because if you can survive the fucking playground, the world was easy to you.
You know what I mean?
The seesaw
that's static none of us have trust static ass to the seesaw none of us have trust issues because
of the fucking teeter-totter that's true did you get fucking i'm not even gonna go to chiropractor

My hips feel better.
Nobody in our generation has a tailbone.
Nobody, yeah.
They're all just chipped and cracked from seesaws and shit.
Mine just looks like a fucking bag of powder.
Like a fucking bone dust.
That's what happens.
You watch two kids on a seesaw from our age group, dude.
Going up and down down one kid bails
other kid drops his flower challenge that's why because of the park we have no trust issues as
our generation our backs are all ass because you get on the fucking monkey bars what happens
dude the playground some little fucking idiot gets on the other side and then you just start
coming to you and he starts fighting yeah he wraps. Yeah, he wraps his legs around you.
I did that.
He just fucking rips you down.
You're just like, dude, I wasn't even trying to do this.
You know what I mean?
Everybody's hands are all tough from those poles you firefighters slide down.
Oh, yeah.
My hands were hot at recess.

You get back, you're like a carpenter's hands you know i mean
like a diesel mechanic's hands get back to the phonics class you got three fingers
dude the playground was dirty you ever go on that tube slide and just read all the messages from
