This is a big week for us, Brad. Most of the ghosties know our new YouTube channel that we're a part of with Trey launched. Yes. Jean shorts. Jean shorts is live, baby. Seemed like pretty early on there was some not necessarily issues, but there was a little trouble with people finding the channel. If you didn't know the exact URL, their exact handle is like, oh, all I see when I search it is just like DIY jean shorts tutorials or whatever. So pretty early on, we're like, all right, for now, at least let's make the change to like jean shorts tutorials or whatever. Yep, so pretty early on we're like alright for now at least Let's make the change to like jean shorts comedy. Yes, like that's an easier thing to search smart. We pop right up So it's been a fun week. Everyone seems to be very like

very big fans of what we put out and Some some trouble here and there but everyone knows it's jean shorts, but there's having trouble finding it However, I did just get a text and this is a new one okay i got a text from your aunt brad okay uh this this text came through about 20 minutes ago it's cindy aunt cindy said uh love the new blue jeans youtube sprint bill due july 15th 97 88 oh yeah affirmation and then pay me my money like right now i'm also shocked that she even found our youtube channel i'm searching blue jeans where is it oh yeah that's perfect she like she like shared my like shared the video from yesterday the one with uh the pregnancy one and she was like uh my nephew's doing these new videos i guess he wasn't busy enough with

ellis custom creation oh come on i'm like maybe i'm trying to pursue a dream here uh oh oh i think this tight beat means that it's going down with some random thoughts and white me too then west best friends eating fast food on repeat so come along let's have some fun and go ahead get on your feet because it's a ghost blue jeans blue jeans is live blue jeans uh is out there and it's so fun i uh i talked about a little bit on my episode of Just Jake this week, but did you have any expectations for the channel or the brand? No, no. Like it's just hard to know. Especially not. Yeah. Not the first time we were going to do anything. I was like,

no way am I going to have any expectations? Because I was like, I'm going to be excited no matter what, because I know that people are going to say nice things about us for the most part. But I didn't want to be like, well, Trey gets this many. So therefore we should get this many. Cause it's like, we're starting out. And I know so much of it's about algorithms and stuff like that. So, um, no, I didn't have too many expectations of anything like that. I think is, which is the way to do it. But yeah, the, the YouTube was just fine.

Facebook went crazy though, in my opinion. Yeah. Half a million views. Yeah. Yeah. Which is just awesome. So we'll see how the next few go because the next one we'll release does not have trey in it that much it's just you

and me pretty much correct and so i don't know how how views will go but but then the next two after that should be pretty solid i think on facebook we got a yeah fourth of july video that we haven't even shot yet yeah that one's gonna be we're gonna shoot that tomorrow which to shoot that tomorrow, which will be fun. Yeah. We're going out to a lake house. We've never been to and getting on a boat that we've never been on, but I'm sure it'll be fine. If anything, that's good content. And then the video after that will be a video about Facebook marketplace, which I has to do well on Facebook, right? It has to face. It's like basically free, free promotions for them, you know? And that's another one that's mainly you and I, but I feel good about that one. might be your eyes you know like our big

our big blue jeans moment that's our big break yeah our big blue jeans break yeah our big bust busting at the seams let's just think of all these like uh just like uh good puns for blue jeans you know bursting at the seams it's um they're uh i hope we don't bell bottom out. Is that good? Yeah. Is that really funny? I'm a little distracted by this noise. Yeah. So normally I give Isaac a little heads up like, hey, Brad and I this week, I think we're going to record Thursday afternoon. And Isaac just knows to like, he's great about out of respect.

Yeah. Okay. I won't like make any noise then I'll do. I'll glue some things or I'll just take a break. Yeah. And this week I know he's kind of been behind the eight ball. He's trying to hurry and knock out some stuff and so i told him or we both kind of told him individually like dude just go for it yeah yeah who cares yeah so it sounded

pretty loud in my ears how loud is it to you guys in the microphone well whenever he whenever he worked at the old house it was like i could hear him but it was like that's not that bad like i shut the door and it feels like i opened two doors like it was like he is standing in my lap right now But Air compressors, it's it's refueling. So hopefully okay enough. Okay. I've had to use the air compressor a lot How do I found out today? Actually, I had a nail in my tire That's too bad It was a small enough nail like I couldn't see it even the guy at discount tire on a rainy day in the parking lot

Couldn't see it. So how'd you see it eventually? Well, eventually I had to like take it in and they'd like raise it up and then like look at it. Oh, okay. But it's nice having a roommate with an air compressor cause I'm like slowly losing air every night. But it's like, it's fine. Can you do like the fix a flat thing?

I don't know how those work, but surely. I could have had it been a more like dire situation. Substantial thing. Yeah, it wasn't too bad, but. That's fair. Never had a nail in my tire, feels good. Yeah. finally did it it's got you always hear about it everything will happen to you do you blame isaac for it like

was it from the driveway i didn't even think about that i'm not one to to assign blame i would absolutely assign blame because then you can assign cost to him do you know why discount tire is the best because the discount is that it's always free what no matter what i feel like i've gone to discount tire three different times there's gonna be people in the comments who are like with me i don't every time I go to discount tire It's always free. I think they just want they want you someday to buy tires from them Oh, like the service of them looking at the tire was free like even like I thought you meant like they were like Yeah, we'll just replace that thing for free. Well, they did. Uh, what did they do for me one time? I think they

Uh, they put on a spare for me free or something like that They did like some service for me for free. Like if I had a spare, they want your loyalty basically. Yeah. And they have it. Yeah. It's working. Let's go.

I haven't spent any money yet, but someday I will. I think I've been in there three different times and haven't paid. I'm pretty sure they have a pretty good warranty on their tires too. Like, I don't know how many years, years though. Not miles.

Maybe both. Maybe one or the other. Yeah. I don't know. Anyway, what's going on? One, one 13. What are we? Yeah. One 13. Oh, this podcast episode. Yeah. Yeah. We're here, baby. Yeah. We're here. The humming stopped. So air compressors all done. Uh, yeah. Do you have a good week, Brent? I had a great week on Saturday. I got lunch with my family

and we went to slip and slides and then Sunday I went to church and then I don't need to know what you did. I want to know how you did, how I did how I did yeah dude it's been a good week it's uh we're going to Texas on Friday and so I've just been like trying to get a lot of stuff done in in the preparation for that because we're gonna be gone for a week and it's so funny like I feel like I work three times as hard the week before I go to vacation like if I just would have worked like a normal amount like the rest of the time, I wouldn't have these problems, but it's about standup comedy. I'm always super into it three days before a show. Like, man, I should just do this throughout the month. Probably just do like 10 minutes a day. Just compartmentalize a little bit better. Yeah.

Like the past week, I guess before that it was, it's just been hard, like trying to compartmentalize stuff with Ty podcast stuff woodworking stuff and i'm sure you kind of understand that too like it's just so hard like even because like trey we we work from like what mondays it's like 10 10 30 or 11 o'clock or whatever to one or two or whatever and that's just in the middle of the day so it's hard to be like oh i'm gonna go straight from you know woodworking in the morning to trey and then right when i get home i'm just gonna have all the time sorry all the time to you know just go right back into woodwork it's just been hard to like get that down so anyway all i had to say i was a little bit behind on order and on monday i

stayed up hey i stayed up for 22 hours straight so almost an all-nighter if you will good for you from like five in the morning to three in the morning that's 22 hours and i bet i was working for 19 of those hours. Goodness gracious. Yeah. I think the basketball game and dinner was about the only things I wasn't like working. That's why you left the basketball game so early. Yeah. I was like, like Catherine, Catherine, like, uh, what's the word exhorted me. Is that the, she, she encouraged me to not go to the basketball game. Cause she was like, you're so stressed about this stuff. And like, you have so much to do. Like maybe you should just skip this week and i was like but i knew it'd be good for

me mentally to like take a break yeah and so and so and it was a great great time at the basketball game so let's talk about it let's talk about the basketball game so uh at the end of the game i'll just tell you what i found out i was talking one of the guys on the other team while we're shooting free throws and i go to any of you guys play uh college ball because they were pretty good and he goes yeah five of us did seriously five out of their seven five of seven okay we have zero yeah yeah not even not even close on any of us yeah so we had uh so imagine that they have five college basketball players we have me and brad and our friends Some good guys. And we lost by one point. Dude. It was such a good game.

LukeHoglund.com came to play. Dude. The very beginning of that game was just like unbelievable. I sent a text in the group chat, but it was legitimate. I wasn't even really trying to be funny, but I said, Luke,

I just got out of the shower and I was, I was literally thinking about your performance in there. I was like, I couldn't stop thinking about how well he played even while showering. I will say the best run of the game start was the beginning of our game. And that's when you and I were on the bench.

Like you and I were like, hey, you guys go ahead and start. Like Jake came kind of late and it was like, it's always like if Sammy and I are on the court together, it's like, that's bad. That's a bad recipe. You know, you don't need two linemen in a seven on seven game. And so it's like, Sammy, get out there. You know, I'll sub you in, sub you out eventually. And I think we started out like 15 threes in a row. Sammy made a couple in a row. To start the game, Luke comes down three pointer. Now we're on defense.

He gets a steal, dribbles down the court, pull up J from three. I love the pull up J on a fast break. Next time down the court, NBA three, kind of a heat check, drills that one too. We're like, holy crap, what is happening? Something's going on. This is amazing. Makes sense why he has a serious girlfriend. That's what it takes.

Aaron Bowling's sister. You know who you are. That's right. Hang on tight. Kim's what it takes. Aaron Bowling's sister. You know who you are. That's right. Hang on tight. Kim Bowling's daughter. Kim Bowling's daughter. Hang on tight. My goodness.

And then, yeah, a couple trips down the floor later. Cool guy Sammy. Back to back threes. Dominated. Did we go in the game? You put, you like had a guy right on you. Then you hit a three. Yeah.

Like what's happening? Both teams were shooting 80% the first half. It was so fun. Oh yeah. I think we had like 40 some points each in the first half oh it was so fun everything went in for both teams and i think the game ended like 65 to 64 we slowed down at the second half but uh yeah it was really really fun and it was phenomenal that we only lost by one to this team with chris hemsworth uh slash blake griffin yep he was one of their that's absolutely and then what do you

call the guy that gave you a nice little elbow to the oh that guy was scary who is he like he's brian urlacher with hair i don't even know how to imagine that like that's all i think of him brian i brian urlacher's a bald white guy so how he with hair i think brian urlacher has hair now dude have you looked him up lately? That is funny to like describe someone and you take someone like a really distinguished feature and then like the rock, but really skinny. Yeah. Okay.

He's like a white Steve Urkel. Like, how's that work? Well, Brian Urlacher does hair. Brian Urlacher with hair looks like Luke Crenshaw. Okay. It was like guarding Luke Crenshaw. Look at this dude. If he could bench 300 pounds.

Yeah. Oh, nice. Yeah. Jake got nailed. I don't even know exactly what happened. He just shoved you a little bit. You were playing good D. You were swarming him.

I beat him to the spot and we were just both playing aggressive. Just playing. It was fine. It was fine. But then right after that,my got elbowed real hard he got clocked with the hand i think yeah i was like did he just break his nose you have a deviated sept like he was struggling now that we gotta sell season tickets to sporting kc that's right how is he gonna sell my nose breathing yeah so but anyway it was fun our tiktok kids weren't

there in the stands to cheer us on so that could have been the difference but also in the first half they waved off the three let's talk about how bad the refs were the whole game oh i didn't think they were that bad i just thought that they were really lazy like there was a couple times where i was like i'm pretty sure he was out of bounds but you're way over there so you can't see this yeah i mean that's classic rec league basketball like the guy at half court's like uh foul down low yeah i think that's how can you tell the ref down low that's probably his call at the end of the game when it was i think it was tied up and the other team was shooting free throws uh i was like hey ref uh who do you want to win this game just just out of curiosity he's like i don't care i just gotta go to the bathroom okay that's actually worse than choosing one of

the teams yeah i think you really don't care yeah you're not calling anything and he didn't at the end of the game he didn't win maybe he should he should have. I think he, I think it was, it was questionable. So, but yeah, in the first half, uh, we like inbound the ball. There's like two seconds left and Isaac, um, it's a three from half court, but it was after the buzzer allegedly. And, uh, I was like, what? You didn't wave it off till after it went in, which I, I honestly think Isaac shot it after the buzzer.

I definitely think he did. So it wasn't like, yeah, I should have counted it. Yeah. But it was one of those things like the ref. Normally, if you've seen actual basketball, as soon as the shot goes up, they're like literally waving it off. Yeah.

Shots, no shot, no shot. And this ref waited to see that the three went in from half court, perfect swoosh. It was awesome. And then he kind of even takes another beat to breathe and he's like, no good. I was like, what? It feels like- to breathe. And he's like, no good. It's like, what? It feels like it was good.

You were like wondering in your head of which way should I call it? Yeah. Let's go with no. Let's go with no good. And I goes, you didn't call it off after he made it. He goes, does it matter? And I go, no, but I would have liked to have known. I would have got my hopes up because I do like that ref.

I like joking around. Yeah, he's cool. Yeah. Those both of those guys are fun. Like they would have loved my hopes up because I do like that ref. I like joking around. Yeah, he's cool. Yeah. Both of those guys are fun. Like they would have loved the championship game. They would have had so much fun with that. They would have loved protein balls.

Protein balls. Yeah. They would have eaten a protein ball, I bet. They would have. Yeah, they're cool dudes. So, yeah, I'm glad they were playing in the intermediate league. It's way more fun, I think. I think everyone plays better. Yeah.

It's a little more intense. Yeah, it's a good time. And just, oh, LukeHogan.com.com dude and he made a spin move remember that spin move like he made a spin move he i could spin he made the spin he made it up no he but he did a spin move and then he went like up and under the basket you remember that one he had a really nice up and under he finished like this left over blake griffin that one time yeah i got it all in my head still dang uh but rolodex it was nice it was nice no game this monday you know fourth of july it's actually the

fifth of july which i guess is a holiday in the eyes of casey crew hey no games i think it's a holiday everywhere like no one's working oh actually because i think fourth of july is usually a holiday but since it's on a weekend they're like we gotta do something off so how about the fifth okay so i think are think I'm working with Trey. Yeah. Oh gosh, I'm not. You're not. You're off.

Only because I'm in Texas. Because you're going to Texas. How do you feel about Texas? It'll be fun. Normally we go like to the beach and then we've gone to the lake last week or last year. This year we're just going to Catherine's house. Like just like her parents' house. Her parents spent like a lot of money on this, like really nice outdoor kitchen and deck and everything.

So they're like, we have all this like great space. Let's actually use it to host people rather than like, because her parents usually like pay at least half of our vacation, like to make it more affordable for us. So it's like, we can't complain about, you know, anything. And it's going to be fun. Like, it's going to be great. And it's going to be less stressful to like get everything situated because it's a house. So no, it'll be fun. It'll be a good time and i just i love the pool you know me i could give me a pool and i'm happy wait all day yeah yeah float around in there oh it's gonna be

great that's fun here's something i just want to put on people's radar now uh kansas city comedy show with trey and i is down to 100 tickets we got a lot of people in the area buy them now because i'm already starting to see the writing on the wall and those tickets are going to go and everyone i've ever met is about to ask me for tickets 100 yeah so okay this goes for a lot of cities if it's not sold out it's close okay buy them good marketing technique no i'm just kidding but especially kansas city like i just know i just know it's gonna get bad i kind of took for granted the fact that it's such a big venue of like, Oh, I'll be able to get tickets. No problem. So, okay. I'm gonna buy them. I'll buy them right now. Okay. I appreciate it. Just don't talk to me for, no, I was kidding. I was about to buy them like a month ago. Maybe

it was a day ago. I don't know. I don't know dates very well, but I was going to buy them a long time ago. And like, but then we were like, Oh oh maybe we should invite these friends too because we're gonna get like 10 tickets or something and then we kind of ended the conversation like okay somebody text that person then we never did so all that's left is uh like the back two rows okay that's that's where i live baby that's where i love it uh you'll hear me back there so So, yeah, I want to, obviously, I'll have free tickets in most places, but I'm like, this is where Trey lives. I want him to be able to, like, give as many tickets as he needs to to his friends. Yeah.

And I'll, like, let my sister come for free or something. Caitlin. Hey, Caitlin, you're welcome. Yeah, seriously. Must be nice. Maybe get Braden to buy it for you. Nice. Yeah, thank you.

Nice, nice. What's up? Good memory. Good memory. Yeah, thank you. Thank. Nice. What's up? Good memory. Good memory. Thank you. Thank you. Uh, okay. I have a fun story. Okay. Um, yes. So, so that thing that I worked on so hard Monday, uh, the reason I was working on it so hard is cause it was getting shipped out to Tampa, Florida Tuesday morning. Um, and I use this for, for my shipping. I can ship my stuff now from Alice custom creations.com. And, uh, the website that I use is called my shipping. I can ship my stuff now from alicecustomcreations.com. And the website that I use is called uShip.

I don't know if I've told you about this yet or not. But basically you like create a listing on there and you say, this is what I have. This is how much it weighs. This is the size of it. And you basically like ask for quotes from people or you can name your own price. But you don't have, it's not like a specific company that ships it for you. It's like all these different carriers can do it. Um,

and so far the only carriers that I've had are just people like in trucks with trailers, like that will come pick up your stuff and then deliver it for you. And I think I've done it three times. This is my fourth time yesterday. And every other time it's been like, they're very professional, very courteous.

Uh, yesterday was a little bit of a different story. Uh-oh. So the guy's username, I should have been tipped off from the beginning. The guy's username was, and he's going to Florida with this, his name was Gator Greg. Gator Greg. Gator Greg.

Gator Greg. Gator Greg looked, first of all, I'll say, I think stereotypes are there for a reason sometimes, but I also know that not everything's stereotypical. So if you're from Florida, I'm not saying that you're like this. I'm from Kansas and I don't have any cows, but this guy was about as stereotypical Florida as you could get. Okay. I mean, just comes out of the car in like slide sandals, like the slip and slide kind of sandals, a shirt that says true to the red, white, and blue, big, big medium guy, you know, like he's double triple xl and like

like long shorts like probably halfway between his knees and his ankles like that was kind of shorts capris yep and he's like what's up man i was like gator greg you must be gator greg and yeah and these people that i'm shipping to in florida are like actually like pretty high ends like an interior designer like tom brady and giselle you can just i don't know the family itself but the interior designer is like pretty high strung that's why i was like i need to get this done at a certain timeline gator greg i need you on your best behavior okay so i'm like this lady is going to think gator greg is the most ridiculous guy in the world so he comes up and it says they're supposed to have two people

and so i'm like where's your other person helping you? Yeah. Where's alligator Alice? Where's like croc Katie? Yeah, exactly. Croc Katie. Um, and nowhere to be found. And so I'm like, yeah, I can help you move this thing in, move it into thing.

And I don't know why Gator Greg chose to be a mover because it felt like this was the most difficult thing for him to move in his life. Like, I was like, why'd you choose this to be your job? If you, cause like he had to move some other stuff away and then move my desk in. And then like his, like there was another little desk and it looked, it was probably like this, like your size, your, your part of the desk was how big it was. And he like acted like it was 500 pounds. Like just lift with your back instead of your knees guy. Honestly,

I tried not to look because I was like, he's going to scratch up because he was like, I'm just going to put this one on top of yours. That cool. And I was trying to be nice, but I was like, ah, I was like,

just make sure it does not scratch at all. He's like, no, no, it'll be a one. It'll be a one. And I'm like, the steak sauce.

All right. Whatever it takes. Yeah. And he was like like he was the kind of guy i mean we talk about big guys and we talk about their noises they make every time he moved a muscle he was and then like that first one was gross it was yeah and i didn't hear what he was saying it sounded like it sounded like some expletives, but I couldn't. He's like, oh, miss. Okay.

Okay. He was like grunting a little bit on different stuff. Yeah. I mean, he had like a great, like raspy Gator Greg voice. And then all of a sudden, Katie shows up. She was in the passenger seat this whole time sneaky katie and he's like i'm gonna need some of those straps right here and like i bet it took them 45 minutes to get everything situated in this trailer so which kind of makes me feel good to like yeah maybe it's situated well also just don't know how it's gonna go so is it all it's

on its way right now it's on its way right now. It's on its way. It should get there tomorrow. I think so. Uh, they, they messaged me today and it's like, we're, we're doing well.

Like, but even their, even their texts are kind of odd. Like, um, feel free to pull up your texts on your phone because we are recording our first podcast ever with an actual camera. And it feels good.

Um, got our phones here. Yeah. Look, I can see Patreon notifications. Olivia Guthrie just commented twice. Thank you, Olivia Guthrie. Oh, wow. I guess they're not, it's not that weird of texts. They just abbreviate things. And I'm not used to that. I think that most people these days don't abbreviate. Like they put the word you can in one word. So it just looks like you can.

Okay. And BTW, you know, your desk is in top shape. Uh, you can't expect delivery tomorrow. Okay. And then thumbs up. You know how I love thumbs up. Mr. Dot Brad, one word. It's like, it's like, is this, are they hiring, you know, somebody from Cuba? Like, you know, they're in Florida, like they're hiring somebody from Cuba to like handle their text messaging. Like Mr. Brad is one word that's fun good morning comma and they did a comma so they okay morning comma mr.brad underscore ss shipping to confirm delivery contact phone and like whatever it's just like wait underscore ss shipping what does that mean i guess that's their name maybe gator greg gator greg ss shipping i don't know because they said

that earlier too like hey hi brad ss. Good for them. They got a brand. They're working on it. It's just odd how they put underscores though. Anyway, it's not like anything like that crazy. It was just like the most perfect, like if you had a choice, you would prefer like, you know, English. I just love, I just love Gator Greg though. Like I love the name. Yeah. I love the noises. Like just the fact that like, he's like, you know what? I kind of struggle moving things. So what should I do for a living? Uh, maybe move some things.

It was like, it was like, it was like, I, it's like me being like, maybe I'll be a pole falter. Like, no, not a good idea, Brad. Yeah. Me being a food reviewer. Most of the stuff I'd be like, I actually don't like eating this. This is fine. Does this have eggs in it?

Eggs or yeah. why is this guy doing this who made him do this yeah nobody that's the thing like no one made you do this greg gator greg anyway so gator greg's gonna be a legend in my book though i think gator greg's had a lot of jobs in his life if i guess this is just one of them for this year like he used to be you would travel around local schools in florida and give talks about like gator education oh i love it hey look first roll is if you don't respect the gator gator don't respect you you got that you understand me he'd open every talk with that and then like you don't realize that first as he's talking and then you realize like he shows you later like he's missing a finger yeah i didn't even notice yeah you know what i mean like like that's like a classic like elementary school

thing like you're in this thing and he's like, I would know I had one of my fingers taken off third grade. You listen to me over there, Brandon. Huh? Holy cow. Like I also had like, yeah, like what's that? Inspirational speakers coming to like high school speaker. Yeah. Assemblies.

And half of them were like, yeah, Gator Greg type people who like claimed that they had this rough past where they were on drugs. I'm like, I, if I had to guess you're still on drugs, like what you're wearing, like your lifestyle seems to be like a guy who's still on drugs. Maybe it's not as bad. Or maybe like you still like the idea of the life on drugs. Like you're not on them still, but like everything else about you points to you being on them and like once i'm off probation i will be back once i don't have to pee in a cup once a week i will get right back to it this lecture circuit i'm back that's gator greg anyway old gator greg he was great i mean he was by the end of the time he was like dude i love all your stuff this is amazing all this stuff it kind of sounded like i'm doing patrick behobes all of

a sudden it could be him this is amazing. Um, yeah, but he was just a good guy. So, uh, we'll, we'll see how the order goes getting there though, because I am truly nervous. Like, is his wife going to help him move this thing in? Is he going to ask the interior designer? He's married to croc Katie. Uh, I don't know. I didn't ask what what's your marital status, but it did seem like, like you were saying, like he does lots of jobs. Like it did seem like it was kind of an adventure, like this, this moving thing, like, which I think could be kind of a fun job. Yeah. You're going to go all around the country. You lift things for, you know, 30 minutes and then you get a drive all over the country somewhere. And it's not like, like I gave them a pretty large window of when they needed

to live it by. Like, I think they have like a week. Yeah. So like they could easily go do some fun things on the way so okay don't don't gator greg hey if you're listening seriously don't get it to tom and giselle asap that's right please what if dude uh brad i have a game for you to play oh it's our first time playing this game it's called guess the context everybody's favorite game guess the context i'm gonna give you three different uh scenes basically scenes that i found myself in okay this week and you have to try and guess like the context of of this scene and like how i ended up there okay okay we're gonna start with the most normal and then we're gonna work our way up to the weirder okay there's three i was like episode 1 versus episode 113 you know yeah so the the least strange

one guess the context me on my hands and knees in a parking lot under someone else's car. Oh, okay. Um, yeah. So that was, I think, I, I, I think I heard about this on the news. Um, you were in the Chick-fil-A drive-thru, you were coming out and you said, Hey, Domi, how you doing? Hi, Jake, you should really go Catholic. I know I'm thinking about it, but you know, I'm pretty solid in my Christian beliefs. I watched an episode online this week. It was fine. Livingstone turns out it's an old masonry thing. I don't know about the Living Stone. I don't know. It goes right through it, Brad. I don't know about the Living Stone. No, I don't know anything about that.

And then you turn the corner from the Chick-fil-A drive-thru and you see a D&D. Damsel in Distress. The Dungeons and Dragons game? The Dungeons and Dragons. I saw a Demogorgon. You see a beautiful girl in a sundress in distress. The Dungeons and Dragons game? The Dungeons and Dragons. I saw Demogorgon. You see a beautiful girl in a sundress in distress. My favorite.

Sundress in distress. Yeah, damsel in sundress distress. And you drive over to her, park your car, bring down your glasses and say, you missing something? And she goes, yes, I am.

I dropped my keys way under my car she drives like an extra wide like suv no really big she said she was uh doing air guitar is what she said like this and then accidentally like through the keys at like the apex or the under what the opposite the apex like underneath and just right down by the by the rotary girder and so you're like let me help you with that and so you get down there and you look back at her you look and you say shouldn't be a problem i got long arms and then you reach down and you were getting some keys for a girl at chick-fil-a that the context uh close at the very very end very end, I said, I have long arms.

And she said, I bet that's not all. And I said, no, just the long arms. It's just that. Here's your keys. Have a nice day. My shoe size is pretty normal. Would you like my name? No, thank you. I just wanted to help with the keys. That's all. Have a good day. Yeah. That sun dress looks fine on you. And Domi's likeake i don't know that's it uh no you weren't really close though uh i was at a driving range st andrews golf course got a big bucket of balls from the the pro shop oh bob instead of dnd yeah you you knew it was some sort of you know palindrome acronym uh walking to the driving range to the parking lot uh-oh they filled this bucket a little full balls are bouncing in the parking lot i'm like oh no oh no oh no

the balls are bouncing and they're rolling across the parking lot so then i'm like what hey i won every single ball in yeah so then i was like i was yeah crawling around getting golf balls and trying to put them back in my bucket but it was also kind of sad every with everyone that i gathered back another fell back out of the bucket so that would be me like i balls and try to put them back in my bucket. But it was also kind of sad every with everyone that I gathered back, another fell back out of the bucket. So that would be me. Like I would like try to put them down as I'm like getting down on the ground and I would like kind of knock it a little bit. Oh yeah.

More fallout. Do you, I know you're like a math whiz. Like do you buy a bucket of balls and know how many balls are in there and be like, every time you hit one, like that was two and a half cents. Like,

and so every time you see one go around, you're like, well, if I, if I don't go get those, I'm losing 50 cents right now. Uh, no, I don't do that. Okay. But I was thinking this week I was comparing like, actually, I don't know if I want, uh, like, like how gentlemen at certain like establishments will just throw money i can never imagine doing that like it's one thing to buy a firework and be like well there weren't 40 like i literally just exploded 40 yeah but like it's not there's no metaphor involved there's no like symbol it's just like there went 40 like i just threw 40 literally i can never i don't know what do we throw money away what would it ever take for me to throw money yeah at someone i i don't want

to get into it i don't know either i don't know what they do um anyway that's all we need to say i will say that i do that with screws i i like i know like oh you know what one cost i buy a like i buy screws in bulk and i'm like you know if i drop one i'm like well that's five cents right there so i need to go pick that up interesting so because yeah every every cent counts and now let's get some creations you know so i have you ever factored it have you ever done the math on like here's on average like what i make per month so here's like what i make every day i do that that's kind of fun okay how much did i spend today yeah well that we still came barely right under uh what we make so that's fine sometimes i'll do that like i made this much money if i make that much money every day,

dude, I would be really rich. So I don't make money every day. You know what I mean? Like we, it comes in spurts. So yeah. Anyway,

I have to spend it. Well, nevermind. I have a 30 day free child Amazon prime. So I'm gonna spend money like crazy. I've heard that. I bought a, I bought a lawn chair today.

I was like, I need a lawn chair. I bet Amazon. You're like, I love how like, you're like the most tech savvy person. Not really that I know, but one chair i bet amazon you're like you i love how like you're like the most tech savvy person not really that i know but one of them and you're like amazon has all this stuff that i could buy i've just never five years later 10 years later it's more than just textbooks yeah holy cow oh yeah they have other books too uh this've been buying all sorts of random crap. Chapsticks on here.

No way. Oh, yeah. Okay. So, anyway, back to the game. Just wait until, well, if you keep your Amazon Prime, wait until Christmas comes around. It's the best day ever. You get all your Christmas shopping done in like 30 minutes. That would be awesome. It's amazing.

And then I have it in two days. You can even add a personalized gift card or, you know, whatever. Note. Is this a gift? I've never checked that box, but I could. You could. I'm good. Christmas time.

I'm good. Okay. The second uh guess the context we will put a picture up on the youtube video now but this is a picture uh for you to look at describe what you're saying brad just for people audio oh yeah okay okay so here's trey in in some awesome looking glasses and turtleneck feeding a bottle to a, we'll say a cat sized gummy bear. Yes. This took place a few hours ago. In a very, yeah, it's a very nice. It looks good. Well done picture.

I'll say that. Thank you. I got the lighting out today. Good aperture. Good F stops. FPS is on that picture. I'll let you keep looking at it. Okay.

But it's time to guess the context. Well, do I, I kind of already know some of this, right? Oh, do you? I mean, well, Hey, sure. Use it to your advantage. I forgot. No, no, no, no, no, no. Oh yeah. Okay. Joking answer is Trey went to the petting zoo the other day and they're like, Hey, actually like there's this one bear who's like really struggling. Like, and, uh, we're looking for, um, foster care for the bear foster bear. Yeah. And, uh, he's like, yeah, of course. You know, I'm, I've always been one to say like, even if we get married, like I always want to be a foster bear parent, a foster parent. And so, uh, took him in. And then when they gave him the bear, he looked down and he's like,

this isn't a real bear. This person's crazy. And they're like, no, this is a real bear. And he's like, no, this is a gummy bear. And they're like, no, no, no. Feed us some milk tonight. Make sure it's 2% and watch what happens. So Trey is looking on in like a little bit of, you know, disdain, a little bit of doubt.

But he also wanted to document it in case something truly did happen. What does it got to cost me? A little bit of two percent milk right and he's got the glasses on because he knows that bears will regurgitate they might spit up yeah so and it turned out because he hates milk on his neck that's right trey hates milk on his neck he's always said that yeah yeah uh i believe the real context is that trey is doing a video for skittles good memory and uh he's like talking about how all these different skittles came memory and he's like talking about how all these different skills came out with new gummies talking about how all these different animals are like harmed with gummy bears and stuff and so that is

there that's the video I forgot that you found that information out on Monday when you came over yeah you're more involved in my told me he's told me twice now oh my goodness so quiz me on anything for trey guys i'll i know everything about trey now i'll give you all the the dirty the inside info yeah okay last and final scenario that picture's awesome though thanks yeah that's really funny guess the context me yeah in the shower okay with my sunglasses on that's a real thing that happened this week you You were, um, you were bathing and you're like, if Stevie wonder can do it, why can't I? Um, and so you're like, I think I can still find everything. And you're like, yep, there's that. Yep. There's those. And you just, you found your

kneecap and your belly button and everything else. So, um, I think that was part of it. And then I think that, um, I think Isaac came in and he's like, Hey dude, do you mind if I shave while you shower? And you're like, yeah, man, I know you have your own bathroom, but I know you like to use mine more because I have the, uh, five mirror, uh, thing in my vanity. And so, um, you know, you can see all the angles while you're shaving and Isaac's like, well, but I also use this like really bright light. And so it's kind of like one of those like old school CD things, like where you like get the light and the mirror kind of like gets in your face.

You're like, oh, dude. Hey, hey, hey. I got the soft water on my hair. Let me put my sunglasses on so I can feel better about this. It's really bright in my eyes. Is that it? Is that it? Did I get it? That one you were not that close on

why in the world were you showering with sunglasses on i had come back from golfing one afternoon as people do it was very hot muggy day as it's been so it's pretty sweaty i needed a shower but oh what came in the mail new sunglasses i was really excited that they came in. And so I just put them on. I wanted to put them on, but I needed a shower too. So I just put them on in the shower. I was like, how fun is this? How crazy am I? Thinking about Luke with my sunglasses on.

Hey, different shower, different shower. I love, so like, I believe, correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe you've gone through like two pairs of sunglasses in the last couple of weeks. Pretty recently. And then like, and so from what I understand, part of the reason that you've gone through these is because you've kind of mismanaged them. Like one time you said you like kind of threw them hard on the ground, but like threw them on the grass. Yeah. Threw them down real quick or something. And so I love that your response was like,

I'm going to order some nice new ones. And the first thing I'm going to do with them is put them on in the shower i figured hey they were kind of nicer sunglasses that was my goal it's like if i buy something a little nicer maybe i'll take better care of them yeah and then i also thought like yeah they should be waterproof right if i spend money on sunglasses they'll be fine they could yeah oh yeah i feel like beach and lake are like big sunglass spots so you got to be able to have some waterproofage even the cheapest sunglasses should be able to handle a lot of what uh what brand you go with you remember bomb tech i asked dude that comment on uh andy johnson he always leaves great comments on patreon and on youtube every week hot rod andy but then he did a

phenomenal job so on our youtube the gene shorts youtube page we uploaded a video today about um college freshman versus college senior there was a joke in there about how me being the college freshman, I brought a girlfriend to college. Brad and Trey are giving me a hard time comparing it to all these things. They were comparing it to bringing a sack lunch to a buffet, bringing sand to a beach. What were some of the other ones? Bringing an aardvark to a metropolitan zoo.

That was a good simile there. And then Andy commented commented which is like the top comment uh which is so great it says that's like bringing bomb tech to a golf course to a driving range or something like that like that oh so good it's so fun to see the crossover like there's a pretty hefty amount right yeah it's awesome it's amazing like i hope that continues like put all your inside jokes in there like it's's so fun. It really is so cool right now. It was crazy. Like Monday was that day that I like was so busy.

So like, I didn't really like follow anything. And then I like at the very end of the day, like three o'clock in the morning, this is kind of weird thing to admit because I'm me, I guess, but I had a beer at three o'clock in the morning. Like when I was done with everything,

cause I'm not a beer guy, but it sounded really nice. That's okay. But I was drinking a beer and like look at all these comments and it was so much fun. Like all these ghosties and stuff. Yeah. So I was just sitting in the dark

with my beer and my comments. Sounds nice. Yeah. But yeah, it's really fun to see all those ghosties saying all that stuff. Baseball is finally back. Get in on Major League Action and swing for the fences

I asked my friends what I should buy and LukeHogan.com's girlfriend's sister. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. One of my best friends. Yeah. Suggested a brand and I went with her option.

Sunski. Sunski? Yes. S-K-I? S-U-N-S-K-I. Okay. They're nice. Oh, that was another thing on have you ever like picked out sunglasses online or looked into it much yeah not recently but yeah maybe you know

this but i guess there's all these different face shapes which i i'm not joking like i did not know this existed well they were like this pair of sunglasses goes good with like an oval face oh okay and well here's some five-star reviews from round faces. Okay. That seems like oval face to me. Okay. Round and oval are different. Okay.

Round is more like a circle. I guess a perfect circle. Oh, yeah. Okay. And then here is like a boxier face. Here's what they had to say about it. And then here is what people have said about these pair of sunglasses with heart-shaped faces.

No. Heart-shaped? No. You sound like a Hey Arnold character. No. Your face is in the shape of a heart. There's no such thing as a heart-shaped faces no heart-shaped no you sound like a hey arnold character no face in the shape of a heart shape face it's on there sunski.com because that's like a widow's peak that's all that is like that's not a heart shape what i'm looking this up heart-shaped face actually yeah i didn't google it for some reason but i was so curious i've never heard of this there's all these different face shapes and i'm supposed to know mine i don't know my blood type.

I don't know my ancestry. I'm definitely not going to know my face shape. Dude, we're going to put this picture up there on YouTube. The heart-shaped face is literally just like a normal face, and at the top of it, there's an outline trying to show you the heart. On the top of it, they just indent it towards the forehead. They just make it. They're like, that's a heart shape. No, it's not. That's just make it. Like that's a heart shape.

No, it's not. That's just a face. That you drew a heart on. It's the exact same thing as the diamond face. It's the exact same thing. Diamond face. Huh. They're all faces are faces.

That's funny though. No, I remember a few times when I would pick out like cheap glasses online, you could like put your picture in there and like put the glasses, like virtually try them on. Did you do that at all? I think I was picking them out on my desktop computer so i didn't have a uh like a webcam to work with yeah yeah yeah above approach you know good for you yeah good for you thanks so i guess you don't have an only fans no okay i have a little computer yeah it's mobile mobile only okay

um that's funny though okay. OK, so Sunsky. I got Sunsky's glasses now. You like him? I haven't worn them outside of the shower yet, actually. Really? It's been rainy all week. I haven't needed to. OK, you're right.

I thank you for bringing that up because I have thoughts about the rain. Tell me about the rain. I believe on Mythbusters a long time ago, they proved that walking in the rain makes you less wet than running in the rain. Or like, yes, at least the same amount. I remember, sorry, just real quick. My, the prologue or whatever you want to call it, that like opening whatever chapter of my ninth grade physical science textbook broke this down. And I remember reading it on my own and being like, I don't even know if that's right. And then it came out on mythbusters. I was like, all right, now I guess I believe it textbooks. I don't, I don't buy it if that's right. And then it came out on Mythbusters and like, all right, now I guess I believe it. Textbooks, I don't, I don't buy it, but discovery channel. Yes. It just makes no sense to me. Cause the argument is that if you're going fast and you

catch the water in front of you, but my counter argument is like, okay, the water that was, let's say above me, I am outrunning that, right? Like I know I'm missing the water that would have hit me. It doesn't make sense until you do experiment. It doesn't compute. No. Um, but MythBuster said it. So I believe it. Yeah. Not to text. And so from now on, like anytime it rains, I just walk like a normal guy. And I feel like such a boss because you're, wait, you're getting extra wet and you're like, bring it on. I don't care. No, I'm, I'm getting, I'm not getting extra wet is what I'm saying. It's proven that walking normal doesn't get you more wet and

so all these people that are you said it i thought he's earlier he said walking doesn't get you as wet as running wait yeah dude i'm confused no i think i don't know if it's if it's less wet but walking is like not worse than running in the rain according to mythbusters okay so i was right yeah it doesn't so so when i get out of the car, it's pouring down rain. All these people like sprinting. Nah. Not Big Daddy. Not Big Daddy.

Take it easy. Everyone thinks I'm just this lethargic, obese guy. No, I just know my facts. No, science guy is what you are. Oh, I just, I feel so cool every time. Like everyone else is running in, you know, whatever. No, not me. Not you.

So that's the first thing. And B, I think people over-ex exaggerate how bad it is to get wet. Oh, see, I'm on that side. Are you? I kind of I'll I'll get on my on my feet a little bit to get out of the rain just because I want to spend less time in the rain. It's not about getting less wet. It's just like I would rather be in the wetness less.

I just feel like some people like change their plans or cancel plans because it's raining. Oh, that's dumb. I had someone cancel plans on me a couple weeks ago because they don't want to drive in the rain. Yes, that's ridiculous. I haven't hung out with them since. I was like, you want to hang out with me? Because they're like, I just get nervous driving on the rain. Yeah, dude. I don't care. I don't drive in the rain. When I worked at church, like so many people didn't come to church because it was raining. And I'm like, that's a bad excuse. Yeah, that's I understand. Like you don't want to get out in the rain, but just be be more OK with being wet for

five seconds. I bet you have a garage. I bet you do. And even if you don't, just walk on out to your car. Nice and normal. So anyway. Yeah, but it has been a gloomy, gloomy week. Yeah.

OK, so one thing that I did this week, I've been hanging out with my roommates a lot. We hung out all together last night. Oh, that was the other thing. No, sorry. One quick thing. I saw a horror movie last night. What am I doing? Why am I doing that? Don't do it. I let my friends, I, you know, I'd been in the movie theater and what feels like forever. I was like, Ooh,

go to the movies. That'll be fun. That is fun. I didn't go to my roommates. I was hanging my roommates and then I left to go hang out with some other friends. I was like, you guys pick out the movie. I'll see whatever. Oh, horror movies, Adam. The conjuring worst colon. The devil made me do it. You said yes. I didn't know. I didn't know i sure no but you went to the box office you said i'll get one for conjuring the devil made me do it uh i not technically bonnie bought the tickets and then i've been mowed her later bonnie bonnie bonnie sounds like bonnie from stand-up yeah yeah it sounds like i'm hanging out with an 85 year old woman this movie's kind of scary whoa uh so yeah i saw, I'm done.

I mean, the whole movie, I'm hanging out with these people and all of them are normal. In fact, I would say a lot of us are all pretty similar people. And I'm like, you, you guys like this. You're enjoying this. You're having fun with this. Yeah. No, if I have time, I want to watch something fun and nice. It shows you how little I knew what I was getting into.

The very first scene, there's like text on it that says like in 1981, the so-and-so family were tasked with uh filming the exorcism and i was like oh is there there's an exorcist in this movie and the girl next to me goes that's what the whole movie's about oh my gosh i didn't know that i've heard of the conjuring like that's not the first conjuring i don't believe i think there's been other people conjured before not not that maybe that was inspired by the devil but like other ones out there not by beelzebub but i yeah no way would i see anything like even like a thriller i'm on the fence about the album by michael jackson that one yeah michael dagson like like like like certain thrillers are

fun like disturbia is fun uh i'm trying to think that's the one you know I think that's like if you said hey name a thriller Disturbia is the first one in the Rolodex what did you say name thriller taken that seems like the token that's a token to make a thriller yeah that is a thriller uh yeah I love thrillers yeah but horror movies just don't do it for me I will say what made this movie extra scary it's like at the beginning it said based on a true story. And like, OK, sure, sure, sure, sure. But at the end of the movie, like right when the credits start, then it's kind of showing some like pictures. And it's doing side by side of like, here's a real person. Here's the actor.

Kind of one of those things like, OK. But then they start playing. This is like almost going to be goosebumps talking about. They start playing actual audio tapes of the exorcism they were doing in 1981. And I was like, oh, boy, now it's scary. Like this is by far the scariest part of the exorcism they were doing in 1981 and i was like oh boy now it's scary like this is by far the scariest part of the movie yeah these sounds i'm hearing right now and then it's gonna get in your dreams like you're gonna be haunted dude uh i did not get in my dreams not yet it takes 48 hours dreams are they take a while they're intermittent they lay dormant yep

they have extended release dude anyway i wasn't planning on talking to that i was just um whatever i was trying as you as you left you were like i don't i don't want to do this ever again i was like i'm good for another three to five years on horror movies uh i think the only time i've gone to horror movies is like in junior high when i just wanted to like there was a girl next to a girl yeah yeah like please be scared please be scared you know that was it please be scared yeah once they could like hop on your arm or something 100 did you like flexing the whole time just in case please be scared please be scared come on come on you want some popcorn like yeah and so

you wouldn't uh like lift the arm up you would like keep your arm on the arm rest the times i'm thinking of are not specifically like girls that were like my girlfriend or like we knew we liked each other but it was like i like this girl i think maybe she likes me we're in a big group but like we happen to sit next to each other not so happen stance yeah it's not an accident and so i'm just flexing like please be scared please be scared like come on like we only have 30 minutes till my friend's mom picks us up in their honda odyssey like i need this so yeah does that make sense great yeah um okay what i was actually gonna talk about is hanging out with roommates yeah one night we all um uh we're hanging out we went to meet up with some friends oh it's the night after uh you

couldn't make it but a bunch of us went over to gunner's house a little boys night boys night whiskey cigars believe it or not i was the only person oh no me and calvin beck were the only two people who did not uh partake in whiskey and cigars neither uh yeah to not partake in neither i would not i would not go i've never had cigar no i don't have any interest in that but i like whiskey a lot yeah yeah that's okay thank you hey don't feel bad dude that was actually hard i I was, I checked, Catherine was also out. Like the reason I couldn't hang out with you guys is because Catherine was hanging out with Gunnar's wife

and some other friends. And I like checked her location at one point and like literally almost every other person that I have a location for was at Gunnar's house. All in the same place. Like Gunnar's. Well, no, Scott wasn't there, was he? No.

Like it seemed like they just robbed a bank and they needed something like really quick to get away from yeah motocross is happening just like the line of people just to get through the metal detectors like there's metal detectors on the street it was like dude what is happening let's get out of here i think there's been some crime in westport recently and so they had a drive by a couple years ago so that'll do it that'll make it happen anyway we end up at denny's at about 2 a.m okay harrison goes dude when's the last time you're denny's at 2 a.m like literally two weeks ago in idaho with wacky jackie but it does feel good to be here and um we're hanging out with uh garrett and some of his crew and one thing that was kind of cool is we found out i was like oh garrett i totally forgot about this remember at

the very beginning of quarantine me and you would play call of duty together with like just random people and he was like dude i forgot about that and then one of the guys there bubby goes dude what's your username or whatever and we find out that we played video games together like a year and a half ago and never knew it never connected it or whatever and just like completely random how do you remember you uh my username is lincoln bio but it's spelled like abraham lincoln you know a little pun whatever he's like do i remember that you know whatever it sounds like that's crazy so we played video games together like a year and a half ago and then not then we met at denny's but bubby had uh just the the quote of the night which i think you'll appreciate so

uh i think harrison asked him like bubby you still playing a lot of war zone or whatever he's like you know i used to play a ton of fortnite i'd stay up so late he used to play a lot of warzone and now i'm onto a new game now i just i stay up so late playing candy crush and it took me by surprise serious about it yeah yeah he's like dude he's like there'll be some times like i'm out with some friends and all i'm thinking is like i just can't wait to get back to my car to play candy crush just gotta go crash yeah i couldn't i was like wait this game's been out since like the ipod touch right he's like dude there's something and he's like from chicago he has an accent dude there's something about it.

It's good. Dude, is Candy Crush the same as like Bejeweled back in the day? It has to be. I've never played Candy Crush, but yeah. Okay. Yeah. I think it's just like get things in a line.

Yeah. That's it. And so like, it's just a obsession kind of thing i got i got into bejeweled in high school for a while yeah and like and same with like guitar hero like once you're in the guitar hero you like see guitar hero in your head sometimes yeah like you see that that like that in your head like i was talking about that with one of the guys back in college when i got really into call of duty uh zombies uh-huh i would play so much when i would fall asleep at night and close my eyelids i would see the zombies on fire like that's not good something's up dang that's not good but yeah it just took me by surprise so much like or temple run i was like that with temple run too oh really yeah temple run is fun i didn't get super into it but it was fun it was a good couple weeks but anyway it just tickled me a lot

just like what i was expect i was expecting to hear some like brand new game i've never heard of and all the similar lines of like fortnite revolutionary game yeah warzone most popular game right now to like what's net what's bubby playing now and now i just stay up late playing candy crush saga dude i think somebody else recently was talking about how they were into candy crush like i saw it online or something like i think it's like making a comeback or maybe it's always been there it's just such an addicting game which is always going to be popular i just remember like i don't i don't see it as much now but like for a long time it was like all the 50 year old moms that i knew were playing like inviting me to play candy crush and what was like the farm one was farmville farmville farmville was like all my notifications on facebook back in the day yeah that's where

bubby's eyes like yo you guys have you guys heard of club penguin this game is nuts you know we all played that middle school dude miniclip.com it's like addicting i remember you guys should get on miniclip oh miniclip my computer at my parents house was too slow for miniclip.com to work oh yeah you need a flash plug-in you need to tweak adobe yeah and so like anytime i went over my friend's house i love doing the miniclip.com and you could like take people's pictures and put them in to like like make different music videos and stuff oh it's great what a fun time it was awesome what a time to be alive so anyway should we get on to blanks of the week blanks of the week let's do it okay first one is going to be a treat of the week. Treat of the week. Treat of the week.

Treat of the week. I went to dinner last night with Sammy. Cool guy Sammy and his fiancee, Callie, with my family. Specifically, Catherine, Bo, and Hattie. I say that because as we're sitting there, Catherine goes, look who that is over there. I look. It was my mom and my dad. At the same, at Torchy's. We went to Tor we went to torches brand new torches never been there before they'd never been to the length of torches uh no overland park even more new than uh where is that one

135th and metcalfish oh yeah pretty nice pretty nice uh that's near where sammy lives so he's like hey i hear you guys talk about torches on the podcast let's go it's awesome uh and that Uh, and that was just a treat. It was a treat to see my parents. Like it's just fun. Anytime you see kind of like a sporting Casey game last week, like anytime you see somebody that you don't expect to see out in public, it's just fun, you know? And especially with your parents, like, like I know so much about what my parents do and vice versa. And like, neither of us knew we were going to torches that night. And then all of a sudden, dang, there's my mom and dad. I'm trying to think if I've ever seen my parents in public without planning it. I don't know.

That's fun. Championship basketball game. What a treat. Yeah, I guess they knew they would see me. Yeah. I did not think I would see them. And so like we had we tried to have fun with it. Like, how are we going to like say hi to them?

And so at first we were like, how do you just walk over there and just say hi? And but she was like scared to do it for some reason. So we just saw her first prank. Yeah. We just know she's been in a refrigerator before. So we just waved to her or waved to my mom and my mom just eventually saw us like across the restaurant. So Brad, yeah, it was great. So treat of the week. Uh, my treat of the week is going to be an offer. I would like to offer a treat to one lucky person. I want to come up with it like the sweepstakes together, Brad. Okay.

I think it'd be so fun if I got a matching tattoo with a Ghostrunner listener. Oh, really? What a fun treat. You want to go? That is a very fun treat. I don't know why. What's gotten into me? And you want to get tatted up, huh?

I mean, somewhere hidden again. Of course, yeah. Of course. Well, not on your face, you know. Yeah, I think it'd be fun. Okay. I don't know how course. Well, not on your face, you know? Yeah. I think it'd be fun. Okay. I don't know how we decide it, but some sort of fun competition where everyone who enters is like down, like we're going to go get matching tattoos together. Okay. I love this. Uh, let me just really quick side note, because I see probably 90% of our messages that we get

on Instagram and you see 10%. Yeah. Did you see the one that said, Hey, uh, do you know who made the ghost runners logo? I want to get a tattoo of that, but I want to make sure it's okay with them first. I was around some people and I go, look at this. Oh, I was like, oh, you do? So I don't, I don't even like, and that girl like doesn't mess. It's not like a super fan that we know of.

Like, oh yeah, that's, you know, so-and-so that comments all the time. Like she's listened to a couple episodes. Like, hey, these guys are cool. I like their vibe. Yeah. So uh so anyway ghost runners tattoo coming soon hopefully um she's gonna get it it looks like it sounds like it cool she at least wants the rights which logo i think it's the ghost like the marathon t ghost runners logo on our instagram shout out brayden shout out brayden yeah um okay so we're trying to figure out like what the sweepstakes are for matching

tattoos. Yeah. I don't think it's just a random drawing. It needs to be like, it has to be like merit based. Yeah. Yeah. Um,

yeah, uh, you, you will just brainstorm some things. First thought in my head is just a really long essay of sorts, but then you'd have to read those essays. Um, an essay,

like an essay, maybe a video essay uh two minutes or less explaining why you want to be the one to be the uh we should have a fun like catchphrase for like the tattoo partner you know whatever like the the tattoo like the ghosty toasty or something like that like uh yeah something like that video essay is fun uh maybe just dance choreography what if we combine them you have to dance the entire time you're doing your video essay you have to show me yeah that you could like yeah do multiple things at once yeah like have a conversation with me while i get a tattoo i don't know what what i would prefer to

see more if somebody being like really good at dancing and having a good video essay or somebody being so bad at dancing, like, but trying hard, you know what I mean? Kind of thing where you try to pat your head while you rub your belly. It's like, they can't,

I can't do both at once. Right. Once they stop dancing, they start talking. Uh, but yeah, I haven't thought too much about it. Just,

um, little fleeting thought this week. Hey, one lucky person out there. Like let's go get matching tattoos together. What a bonding experience. Oh, you're going gonna go get them together as well maybe that's yeah of course that would just be more memorable and i don't know what we get that's another thing but just like that leave some comments what do you think what should we be getting i mean body

parts yeah artwork and sweepstakes we have a lot to decide i'm still i'm still on the yeah the entry maybe it'll be fun to like write a video essay script but you have to take it to somebody and sweepstakes. We have a lot to decide. I'm still, I'm still on the, yeah, the entry. Maybe it'd be fun to like write a video essay script, but you have to take it to somebody in public that doesn't know you're about to ask them to do this and be like, Hey, can you read, like record yourself being like, can you read this out loud for me, please? It's for Jake. Yeah. No context. You're not allowed to have context. And then they read it. Cause then, cause that makes them like get out of their comfort zone a little bit like makes them you gotta really earn this thing maybe yeah they earn it by like you have to record yourself doing an open mic night yeah and you can choose to do jokes you can try to just make me laugh with your jokes or you can choose like you have to go in front of open mic

night and just tell why you think you should get a tattoo oh my gosh it's like none of it's funny but at least you told me why you want to get the tattoo. You might be funnier than half the people there, though. That's a fun idea, too. We're going to solve it over, Mike. Yeah. Okay, we'll figure it out. Yeah. Yeah, we'll figure it out.

I like all this, though. Okay, so that was treat of the week. I'd like to offer my treat up. Yeah. Like canvas, kind of. So you have a tattoo right now on your thigh. Yeah, upper thigh. Did you pull up the shorts or pull down the shorts?

Oh, good question. Trying to remember now. Are we so blacked out? I'm just kidding. I would like to think I had to have pulled up. You would think. Yeah, I'm practicing it on myself now. Because if you pull down.

That's too much. Yeah, you're showing off the wrong limo Wrong flat tire that extended extended bed Girl who like gets a rib like a rib cage tattoo is like why just take my shirt up? Why don't you want to take my bra off to think you don't really I don't think we'll get to that. No, no Yeah, that is like weird thing about tattoos. Some of them are like, you have to be uncomfortable getting this thing

in the process of it. Whereas the artist probably does it enough to where they're like, it's all skin. That's not how they talk, probably. That's Gator Greg. That's Gator Greg. Okay, that was Tree of the Week.

Next is Gasp of the Week. I gasped this week one time. I was at the bar. Okay. And I, about five, so I've actually been to the bar twice this week. Whiskey and cigars for you, my brother. Me, Harrison, Isaac, and Gunnar all went. I think it was a night we were gonna go wakeboarding together

and then we ended up not because it was raining the boat wasn't ready so we just went out to dinner instead okay let's just try the bar and they had some chicken and macaroni that is to die for really so that was another reason why i was like oh our friends are already at the bar i would love to go get some more macaroni but the kitchen closes at midnight brad or like 11 that's how i gasped but whatever it's just fun fact you can't get macaroni 11 30 such a bummer even though they're open till 2 that's kind of i mean it was called normal but you and i aren't frequenters yeah it seems kind of normal but it's like sports bar until 2 i want i want late night macaroni that would be a nice hack anyway the reason i

guess was because my first time at the bar uh that was one of the last places I remember seeing my credit card. Lost another one. It was like, bummer. And then I'm like, Another one? You've lost it? Oh, yeah. I lost another one here a few months ago.

No clue where it is. Okay. Never found it. And so I go ahead and just ask my waitress. I'm just like, hey, just out of curiosity, did you guys find a credit card here at some point this week? She goes, I don't think we found any credit cards. We're like, what's your name, just in case?

And I go, Jake Triplett. She's like, okay. And then she goes back like 15 minutes later. She goes, Jacob, I don't think we've found any credit cards for like, what's your name? Just in case. And I go, Jake triplet. She's like, okay. And then she goes back like 15 minutes later. She goes, Jacob triplet. And I go,

yeah. She pulls it out. I go, yeah, that was my gas for the week. They found it somewhere. That's a great feeling. Cause like,

it's so annoying to change your credit card. Yeah. I didn't mind like having a call or cancel, but just like all the like automatic payments, auto payments.

Yeah. Like, I mean, just like even the car insurance or Spotify premiums. Yeah. You're bound to forget one. And then it's going to, your, your service is going to lapse and it's like, yeah, it gets so annoying, but Oh, it was a good gasp. That's a great gasp. I remember when Mr. James found my wallet that one time at Chick Fil A, that was a great feeling. Good gasp. What's your gasp of the week? My gasp of the week, actually speaking of Chick Fil A, my friend Jacob Triplett and I were at Chick-fil-A and I paid for his food because he didn't have a credit card.

That's not true, but we were eating lunch and for the second time in two weeks, I was eating at a restaurant and the power went out at that restaurant. What's your deal? Yeah, really. But the gas was so loud. Like you would have thought people were at the conjuring. The devil made me do it. Like it was like, so loud like you would have thought people were at the conjuring the devil made me do it like it

was like like it was like two o'clock it was like it was plenty bright outside broad daylight it was a great day it was sunny it was it was a nice day i have no idea why they gasped so loud that was crazy yeah it was like comical it was it was to the point where it wasn't even just a knee-jerk reaction like it lasted long enough that like they wanted to keep gasping. Yeah. And they're like, like, uh,

is it radioactive when they're like, yeah, that was exactly what they were doing. I was like, what is going on? It's like, like unless they had like, I don't know,

a bet that they surely a thousand to one odds. Yeah. I'll put a hundred dollars on. It's not the powers. I'm going to go out Chick-fil-A, you know, mission today. And then it did. I'm so poor.

Yeah. I can't believe that happened. Yeah. It was a great gas, but it was kind of annoying too, though. It was kind of unbelievable. It was pretty over the top. Like you and I just sat there for another 30 minutes or so just hanging out. You could tell the people at Chick-fil-A knew we were pretty normal because she went around

and apologized to other patrons who were there. Like, hey, I just want to say I'm sorry about the, you know, power being out. And she didn't apologize to us. She went to every other table but us. I think she used to tell we were just like chilling. We were just having a good time. These guys don't care. They're good.

They're chilling. Of course, they're not bothered by this. She actually came over to us instead of talking about the power outage. She goes, hey, Domi wanted to tell me, wanted to pass along that you guys really go Catholic. Yeah. Okay. Just something to think about. I don't really understand this, but I'm reading this.

So because it's a video entry for Domi, you should really go Catholic. Okay. But yeah, anyway, it was a loud gasp. Good gasp. Yeah. GG. Last one's going to be poultry of the week. Poultry of the week.

You want to go first? You want me to? My poultry of the week poultry of the week uh you want to go first you want me to my poultry of the week is with rain jackets okay i do not think that i understand how to use them properly like i don't know exactly like why they're complicated things this is a very widely held thing like yeah so it's this is just fresh on my mind because today was raining a little harder than previous days so i was like i'm gonna throw the the rj on yeah i love rain jackets okay you're a good person to ask then i guess maybe I just don't quite get like what it's helping do. So like I go out to my car in the driveway, get rained on a decent amount, just in that walk. Not going to keep me from going to church, but I do get rained on. Good for you.

I get to my car and then now what happens is now this rain jacket is repelling the water from my clothing, all onto my seats. So like my seat is wet and like my armrest is now this rain jacket is repelling the water from my clothing all onto my seats. It's not like my seat is wet and like my armrest is now wet. Yeah. Like anytime I move, I just feel like I'm getting more things wet and I'm hot now too. Like I feel like- Yeah, not very breathable. Yeah. It's just like, it's keeping like this hot muggy air in.

And it was like, I hate this on me right now. But then am I going to take it off? Then I'm getting more things wet. Then it's just like, I'm opening an umbrella, a wet umbrella inside of my car. Catch 22 a little bit there. Is it? Okay. That was the part that really frustrated me yeah i take mine off often because i'm too hot with it but yeah there's no you're getting water either way like you're getting water everywhere i think ideally in a perfect world that water just

bounces off of me like sky zone glow night double bounces off of my rain jacket and i'm dry you're just like looking down i think some of like the really nice ones do like wick it away better. That would be awesome. Like I guess they have like, yeah, the hydrophobic material or whatever, or just spray some rain X on it. I've never heard of that word hydrophobic,

but I know that's, that's fun. I think it's a word that repels water. Yeah. Um, or what if it just has like a little small, uh, I don't want to use that word.

Yeah, I'll use it, but I, I'm not, nevermind. What if, what if it just vibrates? Like and so like just like very shakes the water. It shakes it off.

Yeah. Hmm. What do you think about that? Why do you like rain jackets? I think I look cool in them. I think everyone I think people look cool in rain jackets. I know it's kind of a random thing, but I always loved rainy days at camp because people put on rain jackets.

I felt like everyone looked cool. Hattie wore a rain jacket yesterday. I thought she looked great. That's cool. I like the fact that like, yeah, they, they like keep the rest of your clothes dry. Like, like you're wearing like a cotton shirt right now. That's going to soak in the moisture. The rain jacket will not. I wear a cotton jacket. I guess maybe I wouldn't mind a little soak. Maybe is it, maybe is where I'm at. Okay. Yeah. I don't know. I guess maybe I wouldn't mind a little soak maybe is where I'm at I don't know I'm hanging out with someone this weekend who's from Seattle so maybe I can ask her

hey this is what your life has been like your entire life you've been wet what do you do and do you have one that's hydrophobic I know it's Seattle so probably not you gotta be accepting of everybody but that's my poultry of the week it's seattle so probably probably not you gotta be accepting of everybody but that's my poultry of the week it's just with rain jackets okay i don't get it yeah

uh yeah okay my i have hmm which one do you want one two or three let's go with the one that i'm gonna be most on your side for okay um you might be like brad this is stupid uh weather app stupid i don't like weather app um oh i don't know what if you won't be on my side i have noticed recently let's say six months or so the iphone keyboard is terrible oh on your side. Mine capitalizes don't every time. All caps is don't. I don't understand. I'm mid-sentence. Hey, I prefer if you don't come over right now. Oh, completely capitalized? It capitalizes the entire word don't. Four letters. Oh no.

Oh, it's infuriating. Every time I spell don't. Dude, it's amazing. It's amazing. It's amazing how they don't like know what I'm trying to say. Yeah. Yeah. I was making my notes. I was making my notes for this podcast today and I wrote the word. Okay. But I said, okay. S Y they didn't give me the option to put. Okay. And this is so frustrating. I promise they made, they gave me the option called postulate postulates an option, but okay. S Y could never spell okay you probably meant postulate oh i was furious and msn i i'll say what's up man and it'll say msn yep s is right next to the a i'm not i'm not a eighth grader in 2002 yep on my messenger the two that get me it thinks after

a joke i would like to say gaga a lot bro give. Give me a ha ha throw a ha ha my way for the love. And then two, it really thinks I want to talk about Kobe instead of the word love. Oh really? Like Kobe? Like no love. They're so close. But, but I, I genuinely think like I used to be very good at like texting without looking, texting while I'm driving while still looking and being safe. And now I look down and it's sometime i'm just gonna maybe that's a fun game i should text you things that i've like that apple keyboard is trying to think i'm saying and it's so off and like you try to decode it let's try because it does happen so often on weekly basis and you guys send them to us too but i want to try to like yeah really notice it and

screenshot it this week but i just get so frustrated by what it thinks i want let's call it the ghost runners keyboard game hashtag pretty often you're like let's let's name it but then you don't have any kind of clever name ready no let's call what it is that's just what it is but then people can talk about it uh yeah i want that would be a fun game for people to send around because it happens all the time oh yeah it's so frustrating oh and it capitalizes don't it just drives me nuts i hate it that's i don't know how to fix it yeah i have like a auto correct on thanks because i have all these different ways that i think they they try to like thabs or something yeah i'm like i'm clearly trying to say thanks distance but now every time

i say thanks it auto corrects it with a capital t and i have i've been too lazy to go in and like change it to a lowercase pickleball gets capitalized for me that's annoying do you have any contacts that are called pickleball like pickleball you know craig that could be why yep yeah that's probably why the kobe thing happens too oh maybe i yeah they have a lot of preference for contacts yeah like they think we're always using our friends just let us yeah anyway oh another thing you will correct me uh when i do it improperly but it's the iphone doing it Anytime you say a day of the week, Monday's yes. It'll put it in posture for you. That's not how it is. It's not Monday is no. Yeah. It's like I'm free on Mondays. Like I love Mondays. You have Mondays. What Monday, Monday's weather or it's contraction. You love Monday is Monday is what I love. Monday is up soon. I love that. Monday's yeah whatever coming up right yes that would make sense yep but

not normal yeah stop apostrophizing my weekdays that's a good word i that like and they they do it for you like they mess up for you that's what's so frustrating that's what's so killer yeah so i had to go on my keyboard and uh put in like hey when i do this it means this like you do with thanks a-o that's so that's so i'm one letter off i thought you're with thanks. A-O. That's so. That's so. I'm one letter off. I thought you were saying A-Y-O. Like A-O. A-O. No, just the letters A, the letters O.

They were like, no, you probably just wanted A-O. You want this new word, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's probably Korean. Alpha, omega, yeah. Yeah. And they're like, no, I just want so. I'm so close.

You're A-O close. I'm A-O close to it. Gosh, yes. Thank you. You chose the right one, Brad. That was so frustrating. How do you feel about Junebugs? Well, you know, oh, Junebugs. I have fond memories of Junebugs. Oh, yes. Thank you. You chose the right one, Brad. That was so frustrating. How do you feel about June bugs? Well, you know, oh, June bugs.

I have fond memories of June bugs. Perfect. Then that's where we differ. It wouldn't happen every summer, but I would say about every other summer, maybe that's just what June bugs do. They would sprout out of the ground in our yard in Stratford. I'm not kidding. Hundreds, if not thousands.

I mean, literally, like maybe thousands of june bugs just for like a day and a half are just swarming around our front yard it looked like a plague like i'm not gonna say like you couldn't even see the road like it wasn't that thick but it was like but it was substantial like large brown thick bugs just flying around and so me and cousin steve-o would take uh wiffle ball bats yes let's go in the front yard and just smack them right you don't have to aim you just swing and you get three or four and oh it sounds phenomenal so uh i have fond memories of june bugs okay but you have fond memories of killing june bugs i don't know what happened to them i didn't ask but i i did give them a ride we didn't watch what happened after they

got pelted with our wiffle ball bats uh yeah it's just june bug season and late at night dude june bugs have no fear like they'll just they'll just, they'll just, well, they have no vision. Oh, there you go. That's why I have no fear. Like they'll just go right on my neck. And normally a bug, like you kind of like swipe, swipe at it and it moves. June bugs just stay there until you grasp on. Yeah.

You flick them off. It's the Alex Honnold of bugs. They got good grip strength. Alex Honnold. Uh, riding solo. No free. So there it is. Okay.

Okay. Never saw it. Ah, good. Get around to it. Okay, okay. Never saw it. Ah, good. Get around to it. Okay. Please. I've had some people say you need to watch

Good Will Hunting, Brad. After I said that. It's a dangerous game to say you haven't seen a popular movie. You haven't seen Lord of the Rings? No.

No? Seriously? Still no. You gotta. We talked about having like a bracket of like all the movies that we hadn't seen. Oh, that's right.

Watching them together. Yeah. Maybe we will someday when we have, you know, an extra 48 hours next quarantine yeah next quarantine we do we'll get into it right uh anyway june bugs okay let's get into some voice memos oh gosh yeah real quick this is a long episode yes so thoughts oh that's the she was just agreeing with like this has been a lot of. Well, hey, you guys. This is Erin from Kansas City, Missouri, originally from Overland Park, Kansas.

So I'm pretty split on the Kansas versus Missouri thing. It's tough. Why? If you were to change the noise that any power tool made, what power tool and what noise would you have it be? So like a drill that instead of doing the normal drill sound, it goes. Yes. So thoughts. Okay. That's a noise.

All right. Well, y'all have a good one. Bye-bye. That would not be the noise I would shoot. I don't think. I want something kind of fun. Yeah, totally. First thing that came to mind, imagine with me here. Sander. Yes. bye-bye that would not be the noise i don't think i want something kind of fun like yeah totally first thing came to mind imagine with me here sander yes when you turn it on it's just the

instrumental but then once you apply it to the table then you get the lyrics so flick it on. I don't know the words. I guess you don't. I should have done the words. I don't know the words, guy. That's true. Yeah. You're the beat guy.

I'm the syncopation guy. That would be fun. Yeah, you'd be guy. I'm the syncopation guy That would be fun Yeah, that'd be really fun like but maybe it's like and you can like have like a Like there's storage within the sander so like you've got all these different songs Oh, and every time we turn it on it's like it's a you know an mp3 player or whatever Yeah, like the instrumental you buy different packs that have different 90s pack boy band pack. And then, yeah, once you apply it to the table, start sanding, then you get the lyrics.

Oh, that's eerily similar to my answer. Really? Mine was going to be sander, first of all, because I thought about different tools and like some tools are just really quick, like like a miter saw. We're done. Yeah. So I don't want to if I had to choose one, I'm choosing the one that I'm using for the longest period of time yeah and i'm trying to think of a noise that like is pleasant enough

that i want to hear it all the time and i think the only noise that's that good is music and so but then i was like your daughter's voice no are you kidding me if my daughter like no 100 i get annoyed with her voice all the time like Honestly. Catherine and I are trying to talk, and she's just like, Mom, Mommy, Mommy, Mom. Oh, drives you up the wall. Sorry, Hattie, in five years when you hear this. When she binges on her iPhone when she's nine. No, but I think I could only do one song is in my stipulation,

and I think it would be Lynyrd Skynyrd's Sweet Home Alabama. Okay. It's my favorite song, I think, of all time. And I think especially the beginning Leonard Skinner's Sweet Home Alabama. Okay. It's my favorite song I think of all time. And I think especially like the beginning electric guitar is so clean. Oh, one, two, three. Oh, I would get so excited every time. Every time it repeated. You went with the nail gun out there.

That was kind of cool. Did you notice that you counted down with that? Yeah. Isaac was doing it with me. So that's a fun question though. Yeah. But the tool is definitely sander because it's the longest tenured tool yep good question appreciate it uh let's go right uh this one hey jake hey brad this is lucy from arkansas i'm the one who sent you a voice memo at my graduation and I'm going to BYU this fall in Utah so if anyone's going there let me know hit me up um my birthday is also coming up in just a couple

weeks and I don't really have anything planned for it so if you guys could give me any suggestions both serious and non-serious those would be much appreciated also maybe tell us a funny birthday story or a non-funny birthday story those are both accepted okay and also i have my friend maddie i recommended her this podcast and she's working her way up through it so maddie when you get here hi do you want to hang out i don't know i might be in college by then but it it's okay. And also, I just like to say that some people have a foot fetish, but it sounds... I'm laughing because I know Lucy will love it. Those Mormons, I tell you what. Good joke.

Those Mormons and their feet. I'll just leave it there. Yeah, that's kind of funny. Hey, another good joke, though though you cut yourself off that's good that's good that's good gets funnier every time uh lucy yep first of all with your question sounds like you just want someone to talk to you can tell me about uh my birthday or your birthday or like if anything's funny this happened or if, even if it hasn't at either of those things. Yeah. I mean, do you like, do you have, do you know what birthdays are? You can spell birthday if you want, um, put it in your keyboard. Uh, okay. I'm not very good at the silly answer. So

I'll be serious for a second. Um, my favorite thing is you say you're going to BYU. So I would have a bachelor theme birthday party where you have a bunch of girls come, preferably Mormon girls. And then you have one man come. But at the end of the night, since it's a partition participation, you know, the word trophy kind of society, all the girls win, all the guys, the guy wins and the guy just gets to be with all the girls. Oh, that's fun. Yeah. I think that's my serious answer. Uh, make sure it's in Provo when you do it. I think, I think people would really appreciate there. So yeah. Um, and make sure one of the girls is named chastity. Yes. And it's a pretty name. And I would, I would make sure like have lots of coffee, have lots of coffee. Have lots of coffee there.

Lots of soda. Anything else with caffeine that you can have, just pour it on. I would do that. That's what I've always done. That's what I've done with my birthdays is things like that. No, I don't know if I have any birthday stories. I think when I was, when would it have been? Eight?

No, nine was when the Summer Olympics were happening. And so I had an Olympics themed party. Oh, yeah. All my friends came over. We all were different countries. My dad like organized a bunch of different Olympic games. That's fun. In the yard.

And it was awesome. I would do that now. Do you remember any of the Olympic games? I remember hurtling in the front yard. Okay. Like a track and field event. I think my dad mowed like a track. Oh, that's awesome.

It was sweet. Yeah. That's so cool. I can't wait to be a dad like that. Yeah. It's sweet to like, yeah. Yeah. It makes sense why I ended up being a camp counselor for six summers.

Yeah. You just get to like have fun. Yeah. And like you were creative within your house. It wasn't like you guys rented out like this amazing track and field complex and like, oh yeah. You know what I mean? Like the hurdles hurdles were not actual hurdles it was like the push mower jump over that like i feel like parents these days are like yeah we did this i don't know whatever you know back in the day just just mow the lawn just mow the lawn in a different shape that's awesome my i guess i've gonna i just said that about parents but i thought this was

fine growing up like three or four years in a row, we had pool parties at the like middle school pool. We like rented it out and it was awesome because I can invite like 50 people. That's nice. Because it was just a flat fee for the rental of the pool. And so, yeah, got tons of presents. Mad presents. And it was in November. So it was fun to like go swimming in November.

You know what I mean? So that's my fun birthday. Do you remember? Steve O'Kane, I'm sure. Steve O'Kane was there. Yeah. Okay, let's get on to reviews of the week. Okay, okay.

Dude, did you see the one from our little basketball star? I can't wait to read this one. Oh, yeah, that was great. It was awesome. I saw the username Luke M. Hogue, and I'm like, surely not. Surely it's not actually from luke and then it totally koglin like left us a legitimate review of the podcast it's awesome it's definitely my review of the week the title says great guys great podcast better than recreation level basketball players luke said it's pretty crazy

how jk brad have created such a close-knit community here of all kinds of people of all different ages makes a ton of sense at the same time because the humor is so genuine, relatable, pure, and clean. A warning, if you listen in a public place, you'll likely get some weird looks or people wondering why you're smiling or laughing out loud. Totally worth it though. I would be so bold to say they remind me of David in the Bible when he was described in part as being a man of good presence and they managed to do it through our headphones or car speakers. While they are skilled and excellent at what they do podcast wise, their integrity and character as men shines through as well, giving hope and meaning through real and non superficial

humor. Thanks, guys. LukeHoglund.com. Dang. Yeah, that guy's our friend. Yeah, he's on our basketball team. Yeah, dude. He had 25 of our 65 points right

a few nights ago you know somebody's like a really good guy when he like compliments your integrity and like your heart when in reality you're like yeah but that guy's like way better than us you know what i mean but yeah you know what i mean like yeah yeah i'm not doing that i'm not leaving comments on you know lukecoccom.com about this yeah like last day of camp and mike weeby's telling me i'm a great guy i'm like dude yeah right but you know you know what you are though right you know that you're the best guy you don't have any words though like you just want to say what he just said so you're like yeah you too and you can dunk which is that's something i can't do never have never have not even in the olympics and uh but yeah thank you luke i you know the way luke speaks it's almost

you know it seems like maybe he does kind of facilitate and operate some sort of like young adult ministry that's every other Thursday night at Lenexa Baptist Church. I would definitely check it out if I was in the Kansas City area. I would say go at 730. Do you know what time it starts? Somewhere around there. I'd say 730 is going to get you there plenty of times.

You might be a little late, but you will be there. Like 730 is a good time to aim for. And look on Instagram at the block KC. The block dot KC perhaps. The block dot KC. check it out. Look up. Um, okay. Mine's from seashell Fisher warning this podcast warning, warning, warning. This podcast might teach you to laugh at yourself. This podcast is so fun, lighthearted, funny, and never fails to put me in a good mood. It's also taught me to see the humor and potentially frustrating or embarrassing situations and not take myself too seriously. For example, I was kayaking with my friend yesterday

and as we were walking down the launch ramp, hauling our kayaks, I completely wiped out on the slippery algae. Limbs flying everywhere. Oh, that would hurt. The launch ramp, that's hard concrete. And that algae, you know exactly what she's talking about. Yeah, slippery stuff.

Limbs flying everywhere and landed on my tuchus in the water. She said a different word, but we're not going to say that on this podcast. And yes, there were plenty of strangers nearby to witness my massive failure. I gathered what dignity I had left and attempted to Mount my kayak when yet again, my foot slipped and I fell this time flipping my kayak over as well. Oh my gosh. I'm sorry. All this to say, I was able to laugh it off and enjoy the hilarity of the situation. And if not for the ghost runs podcast and lessons I've learned from it, I probably would have wallowed in embarrassment and misery the entire

day. I'm seriously so thankful for this silly podcast. She said a different word, uh, and all the joy and fun it brings to my life. Thanks Jake and Brad. So it's cool to know, like we've never talked about how to handle like having yak problems, but something that we're doing is making her like react to that situation differently. mean she knows she knows the kind of people we are that we've had yak problems you know like she just you can tell no no it is cool you know yeah i don't know what that even means necessarily like because of you guys i it didn't make me as upset i'm like oh awesome yeah i don't know how i can't think like i can't think of times i'm sure we've talked about times where we've been frustrated and tried to find light in light or humor in it.

Yeah, I guess. I don't know. Yeah. Thanks, seashell. Seashell. I said that it was a girl. I don't know if it's a girl. Maybe it's a boy.

I was imagining a lady. Me too. Yeah. Slippery algae. No, I'm just kidding. No, I would fall. I'd fall so hard. That algae is as bad as it gets.

Some of America's slipperiest uh things i saw the show tlc america's slipperiest things no i saw the buzzfeed article top 10 america's so number seven will leave your jaw dropped and your tuchus on the floor you won't believe it brad would you like to understand a jingle okay okay cool this is going to be a fun one it starts like right away okay okay who wrote this one? gosh I should know that off the top of my head
