Hello, Brad. Hey, buddy. How we doing? Doing good. I got to see my parents this past weekend, and it reminded me for some reason, my mom didn't do this this past weekend, but for some reason it was on my mind. My mom used to do this thing. I don't know if other moms do this. Maybe if you can't think of anyone in your life that does this, maybe you're the person who does this. Always.

I feel like my mom was infamous back in the day. My sister and I always thought it was so funny. She could somehow take like a one word titled song and be like, what? What is the name of that Justin Bieber song? I think it's called like, is it too late to say sorry now? Well, that's the full chorus. I know the song is called Sorry. That's how I used to like when I didn't know the name of a song when I was trying to download on LimeWire back in the day.

I'll just be like, what's it called? Yeah, totally. Like, just know that you're not alone, but I'm gonna make this house your home what is that is that the name of the song is that it is that whole thing it so you and my mom could talk easily oh yeah 100 like what's your favorite song there trish like she's like oh i love i love that black eyed pea song i think it's called i i got a feeling that tonight's gonna be a good night a good good night. The whole thing's in there. I think that's what it's called. Yes. Oh, uh, no, I love that song. I love that song. The one that's like, Hey, I just, it's called, it's called, Hey, I just met you, but, and this is crazy, but here's my number.

So call me. Maybe you know that one. Do you know that? That one's a good wedding dance song. Yeah. Hey DJ, I have a request. Hey DJ, do you have the song? I don't know about you, but I'm feeling 22. Ooh. Ooh. I think that's in there too. 22. Yeah. Hey, DJ. Yeah. Yeah. The mom requesting music. Hey, excuse me, DJ. Do you have, it's an older song. Hopefully, you know, it's called because maybe you're going to be the one that saves me. And after all, you're my Wonderwall. She knows all the lyrics. Like she does it so perfectly, but she doesn't know like the name of the song.

Just the title that it might be called Wonderwall. I have one for you. And like, let me finish this before you like confirm whether or not you have it just to make sure it's the right song. Okay. It just goes popping bottles in the ice like a blizzard. When we drink, we do it, do it right. Getting slithered. No, no, let me finish. Hold on. Sipping scissor up in my ride,

in my ride, like a three, six. Now I'm feeling so fly like a G six and then no, no, just a second. And then it goes like a G six, like a G six. Now, now, now, now, now, now, now, now I'm feeling so fly like a G6, like a G6, like a G6. Now, now, now, now, now, now I'm feeling so fly like a G6. Do you have that song? Do you know if you have that? Yeah. I feel like my mom's not far away from being like the, like, what is the name of that song? I it's's i think it's a song for moms it mentions mother in it it's what is that song it's like hey how you doing little mama let me whisper in your ear no i don't know i think this type beat means that it's going down with some random thoughts and white me too midwest best friends eating fast food on repeat so come along let's have

We need to i'm going oh the the week that you're listening to this that this thursday i'm going on tour it starts holy cow and i went to vegas a week yeah it's coming up wow coming up how are you feeling i it feels like i i've always been a procrastinator and i know it'll never go away i don't think even turning 30 it didn't magically just flip that switch for me because I but I mean it's it's

kind of fun like I have written I think I talked about this last week like every shower I take now I come out of the shower with 20 minutes worth of material now I forget about 60% of it before I get to my phone okay but uh I mean last night yeah I took a shower I've been loving late night showers and I just come out of it and just get to Evernote and just start a typing. Except Evernote's bother me. No autocorrect? Really?

Get with the times. No autocorrect. No. Yeah. I got lowercase I's everywhere. I got happened with one P. Correct it. Come on, dude. I got wet fingers.

I don't know what happens. But sometimes I think that like if your autocorrect doesn't work for a few words automatically, it's just like, I'm not going to do it for this text. I'm dead serious. I'm dead serious about this. And I, it happened in Evernote, but it doesn't always happen in Evernote. Okay. So you need to keep trying. Okay.

Like go back this time and see if it changes. Like, it bothers me. It's like something in my phone that like glitches out. And it's like, this time we're not going to autocorrect. Like on text and stuff, all of a sudden I like get a word very close and they just don't do anything to it. So bothersome. It's very bothersome it's very bothersome yeah well sorry for using the b word but yeah um other than how beat i am we need to get sorry we need to get you like some kind of like i don't know uh some kind of pin or something that writes on your walls in your shower then like

something to like help you capture your i know i keep thinking about that i'm like i need to start taking my phone in here but i don't want to be distracted like what that's why i'm so productive is grease pin they call them grease pins i think that like right on the wall yeah they're like oh yeah we're like at the county fair we're wrestling greased pins yeah i think that's what they do like you're in a grease playpen the greasers i used to i talked about this on podcasts i used for like my birthday one year i asked for shower crayons but that was for math so how the how the times have turned there you go now i'm moving on to stand-up comedy baby i have some shower crayons i'll give you some howdy and bo love them do you have a little brown bear brown that's the name of

the color and a song that my mom would like do you know what's the name of that color you know the song uh uh i'm sure we do have brown yeah so yeah a little brown bear brown uh yeah shower crayons would be great i've been writing so much stuff and uh and not even writing a ton of new stuff but every time i go in the shower i just start my set from the top and i just rehearse it and then i add jokes to i'm like hey here's eight seconds with no laughter what if i could tell a joke in between there sure fine you know just like boom boom boom you know just trying to make it in more quantity that's that's kind of fun in the very little that i've ever practiced stand-up i've learned that like saying it out loud makes you

spontaneously find other jokes along the way yeah you know one of my favorite punch lines which i'm going to be talking to my merchandise um designer brad ellis about i came up with that backstage in louisville before the very first show shout out out Knack Bax. You were there. Really? I was going over it in my head and I was like, oh, wait, I just thought of something so good. Throw it in there. Yeah. Now it's like one of the biggest punchlines of the night. I have, I'm going to say this so you don't have to, because I'm going to brag on you. Thanks.

I think that if somebody said, Jake, you're going on tour tomorrow. No, Jake, you wake up in the morning. Hey, good morning, Jake. You're going on tour tonight. Thanks for telling me good morning. You have to perform tonight. I'm convinced that you could write 20 minutes of new material, brand new material and perform it and do really well that night. Wow. That's a big compliment. That's how confident I am in like your ability to like think, like, I bet you've thought of so much quality stuff in the shower. Like, like you're just like, okay, I'm going to go take a three hour shower. Don't ask any questions. Yeah's pretty long but like yeah go for it and like i i just i'm convinced that you could easily write

like very you know good stuff very quickly dude thanks especially if you're like okay i have to do this it's coming up yeah like like the procrastinator and you like could do that so yeah well thanks i mean i dare you to do that sometime yeah it'll be fun like you're really cool like one night like don't tell anybody but but just be like, hey, I just did completely new stuff. All of this is brand new. Trey would know and he might not love it. But besides that, it'd be great.

Wow. OK, so Thursday, where are you going first? Charlotte. Two shows in Charlotte and then Richmond and then Asheville. And I forget the fourth city, but I already have plenty of ghosties hitting me up. I want to say it's like Abby Kurtz. Something like OG Ghostie, who's like patron, frequent commenter. I want to say it's like Abby Kurtz, something like OG ghosties, like patron, frequent commenter.

I think she's going to be at like the very first show in Charlotte. Like there's going to be ghosties just from the get go. So I'm so pumped for you. That'll be fun. You got to document it well, if you can. I need, yeah, just even for my own sake, for posterity sake, just to be able to look back on. It'll be fun to, yeah, to look back on like,

yeah, just the experience of it all. Yeah, yeah. That's something I've been encouraged by other people. Like you should just like write a note down about something that happens every night. It's like Charlotte, this happened. Or like when I was in like, where was it? New Brunswick.

And I had that great exchange with that, like 75 year old man, like write that down. So you never forget that. Like just writing down the things that made each show special to be able to look back on. It'd be fun. Honestly, that's what I'm pretty thankful for this podcast for lots of reasons. But a big thing is I'm on. It'll be fun. Honestly, that's what I'm pretty thankful for this podcast

for lots of reasons. But a big thing is I'm grateful. It's like an oral history of our lives the last like two and a half years. Yeah, it's like we've been vlogging everything, but with way less effort. Yeah. Just kind of talking about it.

Like Catherine, the other day, she was like into like going back to our old COVID episodes and like hearing us talk about like the quarantines and stuff. And she was like, I forgot that I was on bedrest for like a couple of weeks. Like, she's like, I forgot about that.

But you talked about it. It was really tough. I forgot. It's just funny, like things that we forget about. And then, but we get to talk about them. And so I'm sure we're going to remember for the rest of our life.

And this is going to be here forever. Guys, what do we want to talk about right now? It's got to be here forever. We want to start with, let's talk about, I went to Philadelphia. Let's talk about Philadelphia.

Let's talk about Philadelphia. Philadelphia is cool. First and foremost, it's also huge. I didn't realize that. Big city, tiny streets. That's what I remember from Philadelphia. Yeah, tight streets. And so I get there.

So, so I went to Philadelphia. If you don't remember last week, went to Philadelphia because cool guy, Sammy, one of our friends slash podcast listeners had season tickets to the Eagles and the Ravens. So we went to Philadelphia game in Baltimore in the same day. And so that was like the main purpose of the trip. Uh, but we get there a day early and he's like, he's like, if you want to go see like Liberty hall and independence hall

and all this, or Liberty bell and independence. I was like, yeah, that sounds awesome. And so we like, yeah, let's ring the bell. That's not really how, yeah, that sounds dope. I would love to bring my own mallet. Like, um, and so we're supposed to go yeah i'll bring i'll bring a mallet and it'll be great like we'll love this yeah oh man let independence ring right yeah that's right that's what you say let freedom ring let the independence liberty bell whatever that thing's called ring um no so we were supposed to go on this like walking tour and it was like supposed it was supposed to be uh led by this guy dressed up as ben franklin oh actually yeah it sounded awesome it sounded like a little cheesy but like

it also like from the office episode like you were boxers briefs or pantaloons he's in his knickers yeah um so yeah so it was supposed to be so we get there and we go up to this like desk and they say oh yeah that's actually canceled for today. It's no longer running. But Sammy had already bought the tickets. And so he's like, I called these people and they said it was going to be today. You're a saucy one, aren't you? That's what they say.

Yeah. SpongeBob SquarePants, I think that's it. Yeah. Van Franklin does, but I don't. What's his name? Norman? Anyway. So we're supposed to go on that.

They're like, so we call the people, Sammy's from Philadelphia. So he's a little more heated. Yeah. He's like, you guys said you were going today. Like what happened?

And you know, I'm just like, it's fine. It's fine. I'm the Midwestern, like in the background, like, dude,

it's not that big. We have independence already. Yeah. Right. It's not a big deal. I can go look at the bell myself. I don't need the crack. What's I mean,

probably just from old age, right? And so anyway, but they're like, yeah, that tour is closed, but we're the same company that does those double decker bus tours. So if you want to go on one of those, you can. You're a double header football game tomorrow. It's double decker bus double. And so I was like, yes, we should absolutely do because I've always seen those buses and been like, who takes those buses?

Dude, the only time I've ever taken one of those was in moscow russia oh really it was a good time it was really fun i really enjoyed myself except the caveat was that the tour guide was ben franklin you could you could tell he was like still dressed up but then he put like this yellow shirt like this tour guide looking like oh like earlier the day he was ben franklin and now he's like didn't have time to change out his clothes yes and he wasn't used to being the bus driver tour guide. He was used to being the guy on foot. And so like. Things are moving quicker.

Exactly. You could tell he did not have the script for the bus tour. Like, like, like, here's what I know about Independence Hall. It's where the Declaration of Independence was signed. That's it. Yeah, great. He's like, and that's Independence Hall. And that's where the Declaration of Independence was signed.

And we're going to turn. It's like, it was like very quick, but it was also like just so crazy in Philadelphia to be, I mean, it's just so historic compared to the Midwest. You know, I mean, we have cool things here too,

but like Topeka, Topeka, they, you know, crazy. They got something, I'm sure. Some,

some old things, but, but not compared to that, man, that's so old and so cool. Like it was like, yeah, this is where,

you know, George Washington came out when he was inaugurated and he stood right there that, you know, terrace. And then when he left and John Adams was the president, he came out like, and it was like crazy to think like George Washington stood on that metal step right there. You know, it's just crazy. I think that's so cool. Um, and so anyway, we went around there and the only really funny thing that happened besides Ben Franklin, like trying to be incognito and put this yellow shirt on and do a pretty mediocre job of giving us a tour was there was this woman, uh, when we were like, we got on the bus and we were waiting to leave.

There was this woman like street performing, I guess. I don't even know if you'd call it that. I'm sure she would love to know that. Yeah. She's like out there working her butt off. You're like, I guess she was performing. Genuinely though, dude. Like Sammy will laugh about this because he was there.

Obviously it was like she had an iPad and she had a microphone and a speaker and she was singing something, but it kind of sounded like she was like making the starting like five announcements at a basketball game. It was like fun facts. Like it would be like, Hey, no, like, like it was like, it was like, she was like almost getting into like,

Jay, triple, and, and it was like, like, what is happening? They're trying out new tour guides is what they're doing. Maybe so.

You can hear it closer. She's like, on your right is the liberty bell yeah and then all of a sudden she would just sing after that like it was like the weirdest it was the weirdest thing and sammy and i were both like what is going on over there um but yeah besides that philadelphia is sweet have you ever heard of something called water ice did you ever have that in philadelphia it's one thing at the same time so say it yeah never had it sounds like he's making it up like yeah i was like you mean ice water that's why i asked him and he like laughed at me he's like are you serious you've never heard

of water ice and it's essentially like a it's like amazing it's like it's like this dessert and it's kind of like shaved ice but it's way way way smoother and they so there's this one place called rita's that we went to it has like this water ice and then they put custard on top and bottom of this cup like cool and then water ice in the middle dude it was amazing not a great name but it sounds awesome water yeah it's a terrible name well i think i i looked into it and some people call it italian ice which i had heard of. Oh, I've never had that. So maybe maybe like there's this great stuff all around that I've never heard of. But like like Sammy was pretty convinced it was like a northeastern thing.

OK. And my gosh, was it good water ice? And also Sammy's parents own two Dairy Queens. OK, so we went to Dairy Queen one night and got a big old blizzard. So we were living up large in Philadelphia. Two Queens, two dqs yeah wow two dates my boys got two dates i'm going to drop a deuce on everybody in philadelphia yes so how were the games i purposely not asked i've been around you a lot yeah yeah the games were

really fun it was it was uh well the first game was actually not that enjoyable of a football game. Like there wasn't like I think the final score was 17 to 11 and the Eagles lost. But there was a lot of action in the game. We also had really good seats. I saw those. Yeah, like very good, like front row of the second section. So like high enough up where you can see the play develop. Perfect. Did I tell you about how he got?

Oh, you heard about how he got the tickets like he so sammy's a huge football guy he tried to reserve like these season tickets like try to get on the wait list and like 10 years at like 10 years old and he was number 66 000 or something yeah and then he called whenever he graduated college just to make sure he was still on the list and he's like number 45 000 so he's like okay i can't i have to like buy these from somebody so he went on ebay and found him so anyway it like crazy, crazy hard to get season tickets to the Eagles. And the fans were, they lived up to their name. They were, they were crazy and like raucous, raucous, big time raucous. Uh, there was a guy there at the Eagles game sitting behind us. His name was Steve. And at one point, like somebody had thrown a bug, like this big,

like stink bug looking thing down at Steve, like kind of like one of his friends. Someone threw a bug at Steve. So, I mean, that's Philadelphia for you. That's kind of their stereotype. You ever heard of a water ice bug? That's what they call them up there. They're like, we'll give you a hundred bucks if you eat that. Okay.

And Steve's just like standing there. He's like, show me the money. Show me the money. And they pull it out. and then other people are getting out too like this like little kids like i'll give you a dollar you know i'll give you five dollars eat it steve where's your money and then i mean and he doesn't just like eat it and swallow or you know drink a like beer right after you choose he like i mean he chews that thing up makes it worth worth his while then they find another bug like next quarter, throw it at Steve again.

Where's your money? Where's your money? He did it again. I mean, just, just doubting these things. Steve probably broke even on that Eagles game. Steve's making plenty of money off this Eagles game. Good for him. But yeah, overall, the Eagles game was fun.

Sammy, I mean, as, as far as Eagles fans go, he was just as, as raucous as anybody. Love it. He was ready to leave. The 49ers scored, I think it was 17 to six or something like that. And he's like, Brad, I'm so mad. We're getting out of here.

We're leaving. And I'm like, I grew up like my dad and I, like we always got to the games early. We never left till the end. Yeah, yeah. And so I was like. You stay for the credits in case there's a deleted scene.

Right, exactly. But it's like, hey man, you bought these tickets. You're in charge. Yeah, you're a generous I was like, you stay for the credits in case there's a deleted scene. Right, exactly. But it's like, hey, man, you bought these tickets. You're in charge. Yeah, you're a generous one here. Your parents own two Derek Gaines. And you're very frustrated. Like he was very mad about the,

like he's a huge Eagles guy. And so I was like, okay, yeah, let's leave. But as we're leaving and we like get out of the stadium, we hear like the crowd just go nuts. Is this the 90 yard play? Yeah, I think so. Or I don't know exactly what happened,

but somehow they scored and it was 17 to 11 and it looked like they were going to get the ball back. And so there was like this TV on the outside of the stadium and like so many people had left. And so we were all like standing in the parking lot, like watching this like big screen, like on the side of the stadium kind of thing. Like, and it ended up that they didn't come back. But Sammy's like, dude, I think we left a little bit early. And I was a little bit impatient at this point. Yeah, it was a two score game. I did. I was like, I was like, yeah, you think I did? I don't think I got that animated. But I was like, yeah, you think? But I was like, it's his ticket to score game in the fourth quarter.

And it was like seven minutes left. It wasn't like two minutes left or anything like that. Yeah. But he's like, Brad, I'm sorry. We got to go. And I was like, sure, sure. Yeah, whatever. It's going to get a blizzard. So that to go. And I was like, sure, sure. Yeah, whatever. Let's go get a blizzard.

So that was great. And then we literally went from there. We got on the subway back to our car and drove from there to Baltimore. And we got to Baltimore and we hadn't had any dinner yet. And so we went to Chipotle. And then Chipotle, for whatever reason, took forever. Dude, like there were 10 people in line, but I bet it took 20 minutes, like way too long. And so from there, we were literally like chowing down our burritos while walking like power walking

because i'm like i'm not missing this chiefs game yeah you know and we get there and our tickets were not as good for the ravens game as they were for the eagles and so we were huffing like we were going up so many stairs and at one point like sammy's like oh we gotta go up more stairs and i just go i go sammy just tell me where our tickets are and i'll meet you there because i was like i gotta go so fast it's not a mission yeah and i and i was just like doing two steps at a time up these stairs for you man got there and literally the first play that i saw tyron matthew interception pick six and i was like like i was like waiting at the front of our section because you know i don't want to be

that guy at the game to where I'm, you know, go scooting in as the play is going on. You got to wait between plays. Yeah. So I literally score the touchdown and I go, I'm a, I'm in this row right here with my chiefs. Yeah. So, um, but yeah, Baltimore. Okay. I'll tell you a few different quick stories. So we park at Baltimore and this parking attendant,

it's like in the middle, like downtown, their stadium. And so this parking attendant's awesome. He's like, just want to let y'all know, this garage will be closing at 1 a.m. He goes, trust me. He's like, so excited about telling, trust me, I dare you. I dare you to come at 101.

It will be closed. It will be closed. It will be close. And I'm like, okay, sure, man. All right. And so we get in the elevator with all these Ravens fans and Sammy immediately just like sells me out. He's like, yeah, he's a chiefs fan. And I'm like, dude, Hey, come on.

Play the cool. Cause I only had like, I had the blue shirt on and my chiefs hat. So I wasn't like very obviously chiefs. Okay. Cause it was the only, the only chief stuff I had was long sleeve and it was 70 degrees so you try to put it off like you're not really oh are they playing tonight oh that oh i was just parking in a parking spot to go visit my girl you know um no but this the this great quote came from this baltimore ravens fan he's like he's like you know what we'll trash talk y'all game but at the end of it you're getting a hug

like okay basically saying like, Hey, we're nice guys here. And it's really true. Like the Baltimore was, I mean, not so much to Jackson Mahomes. I don't know if you heard about that.

Oh yeah. But they were very nice to me. The Kansas city mayor today tweeted. Did you see this? Yeah. Leave Jackson Mahomes alone. I was like, you're just making it worse by saying that.

I don't think you need to get involved. Uh, mayor Quentin, Quentin Lucas background was a Pat Patrick Mahomes brother. Like. Quentin Lucas. Background was that Patrick Mahomes' brother like got made fun of and he, Patrick Mahomes' brother took some water and like poured it on this fan out of frustration. Yeah.

I was kind of shocked that the clip went viral. It didn't seem too bad on either end. No. It's kind of just like people love just ragging on Jackson Mahomes. Right. So anyway, the Baltimore fans were great. The only time I really ever said anything back to them

when they were like yelling stuff at me was when they said, Kansas, the Baltimore fans were great. The only time I really ever said anything back to them when they were like yelling stuff at me, uh, was when they said Kansas city barbecue isn't even good. He said, Hey, I said, okay, that's too far. That's too far. Like you can say what you want about my mother and my wife, but my barbecue and one of my kids, but not the barbecue. Yeah, exactly. Uh, but for the most part, I was like, I tried to be a very thoughtful, nice fan the whole time.

Yeah. But that there was one time where Travis Kelsey had this amazing run. We were texting about it. It was awesome. Yeah. Like I literally like, like I was quiet, like most of the time when they would score, I was expecting it most times. I was like, awesome. Awesome.

That's great. Like go Chiefs. Awesome. And even when the Ravens would score, I'm like, good for you guys. Cause I was like, we're not going to lose this game. And, but Travis Kelsey should not have scored that touchdown. He, he ran so far and like, yeah, like just watching the play from seeing the whole field. It was like, there's no way he's going to score. And then he scored and like, just out of impulse, I just stand up and

I just go, Oh, and so it'd be pretty quiet in there too when you hold yeah oh yeah exactly it was very quiet and it was awesome so overall the chiefs ended up losing the game for those that don't know on a pretty heartbreaking literally the play before it happened sammy goes are you nervous do you think like are you getting nervous i would be nervous and i literally i just i very calmly i was like no i'm not nervous at all next play they they hit it off to our running back and you almost evolved we'd lose the game so lesson learned don't trust anyone besides patrick mahomes oh and let me let me really quickly i wrote down the national anthem at the eagles game was the coolest national anthem i've ever heard in my life it was that street performer on the ipad

no it was it was one man that played a trumpet and he he's kind of jazzy but not like in like a overly cocky kind of jazzy way and he milked the national anthem like it probably took him four minutes to play okay but not in like a not in like a you know like it wasn't like anything like so crazy we're playing the electric guitar get a little too carried away with the national anthem yeah 100 i agree there's like a solo in the middle of it it's like all right i mean like you guys should watch it like i don't know how like i'm sure you can find on youtube or something like i got teary like teary-eyed during it like oh patriotic brad coming out in the northeast i don't know if it was like it was obviously yesterday yeah it was obviously like the national anthem but it was also like all these people like

this was the first home game for both those teams like in years okay gotcha yeah and so everyone was so fired up but every in between all the different like you okay gotcha yeah and so everyone was so fired up but every in between all the different like you know pauses of this song everyone was going nuts like it was oh it was so good dude just thinking about i'm getting goosebumps right now and so uh anyway he was just like this is amazing i don't think sammy knew that i was crying a little bit i had my sunglasses on but tears were coming smart move soras. Smart move. So, yeah, overall, man, it was great. Oh, oh, one more thing. Sorry.

A few different things. The Ravens game won their announcer. I don't know. You probably can't hear it on the PA announcer. Every single play, you would think they just won the Super Bowl. Pretty fired up. It's like, that's a gain of three yards. It's like, that's that. Like, a gain of three yards on the play you know or

like it should be like so quiet and it was like that's a gain of four yards it's third and eight it's like for an offense that's not a very good thing the tone is a little off yeah let's celebrate things worth celebrating exactly like it was it was really awkward they also had this really weird graphic of a raven i think they think that the raven sounds like a lion like anytime anytime the graphic would come on and be like it's like less of a i don't think that's what a raven does um and so there was that and then i can't believe i forgot to talk about this the first like but flow rider came out at halftime oh yeah you saw a concert you saw two games one concert oh my gosh like i understand why the And then I can't believe I forgot to talk about this the first, like, but Flo Rida came out at halftime. Oh yeah. You saw two games, one concert.

Oh my gosh. Like I understand why the chiefs lost that game is because Flo Rida came out for the Ravens. He in a very quick, like 15 minute halftime did good feeling low going down for real wild ones and my house. Nothing but the hits. I mean, it was awesome. Like just a couple of weeks ago, I was like, these are my top 10 wedding songs. Like three or four of them were flow rider. Yeah.

Three or four of them were those songs. Yeah. And I got to experience, it was such a weird experience. Cause there was like these like scantily clad backup dancers, you know, like, and all these cheerleaders, like, you know, cheering them on right up there. But then I'm looking around at all these fans and like, you know, there's like all these old men, like not caring about this thing at all. And I'm just like, this is such a weird like like i have a hard time thinking that flow right is having fun performing this concert right now you know what i mean yeah he's like put your hands up put and no one's putting their hands up no one's getting into it yeah it's like yeah you perform for 70 000 people but they were like getting hot dogs yeah exactly like like yeah like yeah do i do i go for hot

chocolate or do i go for flow rider like that's the kind of people that you're having to struggle through so um yeah so cool though you've been a flow rider concert now i have i can say i've seen flow ride i saw multiple hall of famers in person like ray lewis brian dawkins were both at their games um and yeah oh a lot of justin tucker jerys, which was really random to me. Okay. He's a loyal guy. He's been on the team for a long time. Good kicker, but I've never seen a butker jersey by anybody besides his mom, probably.

Um, but yeah, overall, man, it was, it was a really fun time and the chiefs and the Eagles both lost, but we had a ton of fun. Kind of bad luck. Yeah, I guess so. I've literally never seen, I've seen Patrick Mahomes play twice live and never seen him win. All right. And Justin Houston played on the other team both times.

So I don't know. I don't know. I don him win. All right. And Justin Houston played on the other team both times. So. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know what to tell you. So anyway, overall, just just great time. While we're still in the football thing somewhat, let's talk about the guillotine league real quick.

OK, quick little update. Yeah. A girl, Lisa Gluck. Yeah, we gave her praise last week. Just in time. Yeah, she she's out of there. Yeah, she it was close. It was like only like six or seven

points separated her from the second worst but she's gone which means patrick mahomes was up for grabs this week oh dude i haven't checked yet wait you don't know no you don't know no did i get him oh i need to check right now okay how did you not just check first thing in the morning bro i've had a busy day i will i mean i woke up, it felt like Christmas. I checked this before Zillow. Oh, I gotta figure out how to find this fast. Fantasy. Go to like league activity.

who is that some guy named brock brock brock like liaison her lies and you want to explain what happened so you get we were already given. Oh my goodness, Brock. We gave Gavin a hard time last week. Mr. Bomb Tech drivers. He spent 98 of his hundred dollars on like three players last week. You only get a hundred bucks all season long.

Yeah. The season could be 18 weeks. Oh, Brock, who has a pretty solid team. He's got like, it's Brad is one of the people. And now I'm in this boat where I don't even have two starting i almost lost last week i was almost the seller dweller i almost got brad did text me in the middle like the the noon slot games and said that i i find myself on hashtag guillotine watch i thought that was pretty funny yeah brad was not looking good there's a lot of us who don't have two starting quarterbacks you have to start two

of them this guy had still has two starting quarterbacks and You have to start two of them. This guy had still has two starting quarterbacks and spent all $100 on Patrick Mahomes. $100. All $100. So he doesn't get anybody the rest of the year. He cannot get anyone else. Unless they're just not picked up by anybody. And then they're just like $0 pickups. Oh my gosh, Brock.

We were kind of roasting him in like the league message board. He's like, what do you expect? Look at my quarterbacks. It's like, well, I mean, he's got to. So that's better than me. Yeah. But I i mean he's got like he had tyra taylor who's now injured so fair okay but he has justin fields who's starting now he has zach wilson who's still a starter and now he's oh my and no one else for the rest of the season how much did you bid for him you remember nine dollars so i gotta i'll bid a little bit as you're pressing that were like, this is a waste of time.

I don't need to press this. Yeah, I'm almost getting a bid on it. Yeah. I was like, I can't not bid on Patrick Mahomes. I think I did like $40 or something like that. Wow. Which was like a lot. That's a chunk.

Like I went back and forth on it. I was like, I have no quarterbacks. I can easily be done next week if I don't get this guy. I was mad. You got Davis Mills from me. Mills Mafia. Did I? Because I got, I bid $2 for him and you bid $4.

Yes. I was like, dang it, I wanted four yes i wanted that but you give it five dollars for a guy named davis mills so you know davis mills sounds like uh yeah like the kid in lacrosse that just is a jerk his dad is the coach listen davis mills yeah yeah his dad's the coach he's like his mom's like the head of the booster club yeah and kind of gets his way yeah he's not very good but he has the best equipment so like people think he's really good got an arm he wears lots of yeah he wears lots of the arm accessory good for you davis mills so we'll that's awesome that's huge so i have at least you have a quarterback now okay but oh it's so fun oh i thought you were gonna say like you

He's more confident. Right. He's a good guy. Yeah, he is. Yeah. He's, he's definitely been more on the,

um, hygienic side lately i think maybe since he moved out like his mom wasn't telling him what to do anymore you know yeah um he's got that new apartment it's actually right above a coffee shop which is really cool so brent loves that he does he's like i can literally wake up to the smell of coffee every single day he says that he cracks his window open a little bit his wy in in dow he has that sign in his apartment that says like, eat, sleep, coffee, repeat.

I love that just afterwards just give him my shirt and they give me a shirt I love that. afterwards just give them my shirt and they give me a shirt i love that that'd be sweet i'll start performing and not as nice as shirts but still or do you just you just invest in like all those white uh polka dot shirts just hand those out every night yeah guys if you want to uh talk to me afterwards and meet or just jersey

swap i will be in the lobby afterwards so let me me know. This is for men only. All right. But the caveat is or the stipulation is that you have to have your own shirt. Like like the person swapping with you has to have merch of their own. So like if Knack Baxter is swapping with you, you have to you have to give Jake a shirt that says Knack Baxter on it. It's something that like belongs to you. Yes, absolutely. Has to be unique to you.

That's Sonic. On our way there, we saw a license plate or no bumper sticker that said, I break for squirrels. Do you break for squirrels? Do you think it was like stop break or you think it was like take a break? Like labor day piece of that Kit Kat squirrel? Yeah. Break me off a piece of that kit kat squirrel yeah break me off a piece of kit kat in the park maybe uh i don't know what that meant it was break like ake like i stop i stop for squirrels okay i i slow down for squirrels i don't know if that's

like am i going to get canceled for that to me in the future am i not doing something i need to be what's the difference between slowing down and breaking break is it completely yeah good point i don't slow down at all really and i i always get nervous when i get too close i'm like move move move move i think squirrels are getting smarter i feel like i've had fewer close calls with scroll squirrels tomorrow well the technology is getting better for him in the squirrels yeah just like anything else like like we have better safety technology in the cars why wouldn't they have it in their they have bigger airbags you know yeah yeah in their cheeks right bigger airbags bigger like radar technology they know when cars are coming yeah exactly do you remember uh the squirrel we

saw in the park today you said yeah you said that that thing put the whole hedge apple its mouth yes i've never seen a squirrel i thought hedge apples were just like a menace to society i thought they did nothing they're just like a yes a fake fruit that kind of gets you excited it looks like an unripened grapefruit. Is it a Midwest thing or is it like everywhere? I don't know, guys. Angela, Christian, Caleb, Brent, Garth. Do you guys have hedge apples?

Yeah. Either way, they're annoying and you crack them open and there's like white and boring and kind of pussy, to be honest. But anyway, I saw a squirrel just taking down a hole and we get up close to the squirrel and he just puts it in his mouth and shimmies up a tree. Whole hedge app. Whole H-A. Yeah. Ha we get up to the closest squirrel. He just puts it in his mouth and shimmies up a tree. Whole hedge app. Whole H a ha ha. Big squirrel.

I don't know.

I'm just here to get a prayer. So what happens January 1st, they don't work anymore? I don't know. Okay. I'm sure he probably warned me, but I was like, this is so far from what I came here to do. Just like, is the iPhone 13 Pro,

what colors do you have? And he's talking about my plan. He wants me to have all these SIM cards, whatever. That's a bummer. Oh, but Aunt Cindy, he did tell me apparently there's some plan. We save a lot of money but we will lose uh we won't be able to have as much hot spot data so i don't know how much we use that okay i don't use it i use it every once well uh okay but probably not enough to keep the whole family down it's like a hundred dollars less

go from 450 to 365 a month that's not bad same same deal less hot spot like don't you always wonder if there's a catch i wonder if there's a catch this guy seemed weird yeah let me tell you about this interaction okay uh he gets my id which makes no sense because i purchased nothing that entire day i was just there to ask if they have an iphone 13 digits of your driver's license and how tall are you okay great he has my id and he goes oh happy belated birthday i was like oh thank you he's like oh doing the math here looks like you just turned 30 i was like yeah and he's like how was it i was like you know it's not too bad i actually celebrated in hawaii so it wasn't bad at all he goes oh which island you go to i was like i went to maui it was really fun he goes now

maui is that the third island okay i literally go historically yeah by what ranking system yeah is what i asked him and i think he got flustered because he realized he didn't even know what he asked he was kind of like uh like i don't know i thought like the big island was like number one well yeah the big one's always number one right and i just kind of like i was like i'm just gonna see what he says here and that's kind of all he had to say he's like you know i thought the big island was number one and then i guess like i don't know i guess i just don't know where maui falls maybe it's number three and i was just like do you mean like by yeah yeah i think it's the third i was

gonna say that's the difference between you and me is like when he said do you think it's the third or is it the third island right i'd be like i think so like i would i would just i would just like gone with it whatever yeah i think so third or third or fourth by landmass it's actually interesting by landmass yes but square footage is actually fourth it's a little it's tricky actually it's tricky um yeah third yeah it is the third no matter what yeah what system you look at it falls at number three tourism mangoes population it's third in landmass uh so that was fun dude i i have no desire to ever go into one of those stores i i feel like those like mobile phone stores are so bad like i never have good experiences there that's a good point yeah it's kind of urgent care yeah i keep going to

these places that you just it's never fun i don't know why i keep doing this and but but optimistically every time i go in there i'm always like this one's gonna be good and i always think it'll be in and out let me just oh there's t-mobile store in the same parking lot as halloween store perfect i'll just hop in real quick dude that's the one that katherine went to whenever she changed from 18 to t-mobile and she was like so fired up i don't remember what they did but i just remember her coming out of it being like i had such a bad experience and they still have my id because i didn't know my last four digits yeah exactly they wouldn't give it back to me they said i could yeah downgrade the family plan if i want to i have to kick off the oldest member

but yeah overall i think it's just rough it's just a rough experience but anyway anyway um that's t-mobile that's aunt cindy oh the videos sorry i kind of interrupted so we had the types of dog people and then we filmed uh another i don't know what we're gonna call it exactly just like i don't know what we've been calling it in internally. That's nice within the company. Yeah. Yeah. Within the brand is the pun expert.

And so like but but the idea of the video is like maybe like Instagram caption pun expert or something like that. Yeah. I don't know. Something that kind of tells you what the video is going to be. Something quick and catchy like that. Something like Instagram dot com accounts need caption for the fall. So they visit pun expert.

Won't believe what happens next. Some businesses still know. Yeah, business is done. Yeah. So basically, Jake is like this guru, like just amazing pun expert. And I'm coming to him as this basic white girl seeking help with my Instagram captions. It was kind of fun because this video was weirdly right up Brad and I's alley where it's like it gets funnier how much you stretch the jokes, which is exactly what we do. That's

our favorite thing. Yeah. Yeah. Just like this is funny because how specific it is, like the five dollar whatever joke it was. It was like it was those over and over again. It was literally taking five dollar jokes, writing the punchline first, and then reverse engineering, asking the questions about them. And you'll see. I really hope it goes well because we have aspirations of like, if this goes well, then we can do it for Christmas. We can do it for whatever.

All these different things. Spring, summer, the beach. Yeah, Valentine's Day. Right. So hopefully this could be my recurring character. And whoa, did you guys hear that noise? It sounds like Isaac is blowing his nose onto a saw that might take a while too that's the cnc machine i think it's fine yeah man that is

that is distracting um actually the other day not even like almost the exact same uh noise i came home yesterday and katherine, listen to this. And then like two seconds later, our toilet made that noise. Like the top of the like the inside of the toilet is just like sounding like a very loud trumpet. Huh? Like and I was like, I'm really glad that Bo and Hattie aren't here right now. And Google didn't fix it really quick. So nothing too crazy with it.

But it was crazy loud. I have some shout outs if you want to go there. Okay. Yeah. I have quite a few shots. Oh, actually I do have another thing that maybe I'm just going to, I'm just going to preface it right now.

And then I might just sprinkle it in later. Okay. Okay. And you can play along as well. It's this new segment called, it's more of a challenge in a game called five and 20. Okay. And it's just like randomly as we're talking,

I might say, Jake, five and 20 and then do pushups. Yes. Okay. Social pushups, five and 20, you know, types of shoes. And you have to name five different types of shoes. A six Adidas, Nike, Shaquille O'Neal. Perfect. It'll be five and 10. I don know okay that was really quick thanks five and twenty um cities in philadelphia cities in pennsylvania cities in phil boroughs and yeah five and twenty cities in pennsylvania pittsburgh philadelphia redding scranton what's the other big one what's the capital yeah what's the big one p? What's the capital? Yeah, what's the big one?

Pittsburgh. Did I say that yet? No, I said, what's the capital? Yeah, you already said the big ones. Hershey. Sure. Hershey. Hersher. Lancaster.

Right. Pressure's on. Okay. Harrisburg is the. Good, good. Yeah. So at random times, we were just allowed to. Yeah, like maybe as we're talking about like dogs, like five and 20.

Let's do five and 10. I think that sounds. Five and 10. Yeah, a little more. dogs like five and twenty let's do five and ten i think that sounds five and ten and yeah a little more hey five and ten types of dogs something like that got it um so anyway okay shout outs first of all i want to give a shout out we kind of alluded to it earlier but my aunt charlotte who's like aunt cindy's best friend aunt charlotte she's not even like my real aunt she but she's you guys have different blood uh while we've been going through this car process, she actually had a knee surgery. And so she didn't need her car. So she's like, hey, you want to just borrow my car for four weeks?

And so I need it. Yeah. With a K. It's really fun. Pun expert. Yeah. And so she was able to, yeah, lend us her car so that we could keep the mileage down to my truck before we sold it.

So shout out to Anne Charlotte. Shout out to Anne Charlotte. Yeah. Shout out to my parents for coming all the way to on my truck before we sold it. So shout out to Anne Charlotte. Shout out to Anne Charlotte. Shout out to my parents for coming all the way to Kansas City and back in one day. Yeah, how was it? Just to kind of hang out. Did you have fun?

Yeah, it was great. It was me, my dad, Scott and Isaac, played golf together. Yeah, any stories from the golf range? It was really fun. I don't know if there's anything like podcast worthy story-wise. Scott just mentioned like Jake's dad is so funny. That's what he said.

I mean, we definitely had fun. Like there's a balance to golf. Like, you know, I'm still learning like the nuances and like the unwritten rules of golf. And like, you know, obviously you don't talk when someone's like swing. It's a very quiet game. Right. But there is like, you know, there's a sarcastic competitor in me that's like wants to try and throw you out, you know, in basketball.

I would love to say something while you're shooting your free throws. Yeah, I do that. But it's like in golf golf you don't really do that but you can do it before the shot no but yeah right before so yeah that was kind of fun me and my dad just like trying to get in scott's head it was so fun because he's very mental too scott had like this big putt coming up and you know we were just going back and forth just like man i can't imagine the things going through his head right now you know and then my dad's like well yeah i mean yeah he left his wife and kid at home to come play golf with his buddies i mean i can't

imagine what are they doing back home? How did he respond? Did he laugh about it? Scott was like pretending to be focused, but he had to be rattled. He was like lining up the pot. Like, I know this is getting to you. I think he made it anyway. But we did that a lot.

And yeah, it was just a good time. Yeah. Went out to dinner with my parents afterwards. Isaac came and then they left. They went back home that night. OK, so shout out to them. Shout out. OK, I got a shout out to coach the dog.

He was the dog that sat next to me on my airplane ride from Nashville or from Philadelphia to Nashville. I've never had a good dog airplane experience. I had a great one. I got really I got one of the I got a front row seat literally a front row seat on this airplane and whoa coach the dog was window seat and no one sat in between us because no one wanted to sit by the big man of the dog whoa hold on yeah dog solo no no i'm sorry oh that would be amazing it's just you and a dog the whole road yourself oh my gosh can you imagine the dog just i'd pay extra for that the dog just buckles itself in and the window seat opens up

the window flaps like man i, I love looking at it. Do you mind? Do you mind if the windows open? Go ahead, buddy. It's your day. Okay. So dog not solo. He had, he had one of those vests on that said service dogs, which do you know?

I always think that means like somebody that's like disabled or something. This guy seemed very fine. I, this dog seemed very untrained. And so that I was like, what's going on with this? I think the rules are pretty lenient for airplane rides to like be qualified as a service dog. But I think sorry, I think there's a lot of service dogs that are doing things besides just like disabled people. It's a lot of more like like you see those dogs that can tell when your blood pressure is low, like diabetic dogs. No, it's very impressive.

And I've also seen a lot of dogs. I don't know. They're just they've been trained in a way to like sniff it blood pressure sniffing dogs seriously it's pretty cool that is and there's also dogs that are like really good with like people who suffer from like anxiety like really bad anxiety like panic attacks that's what i was people who like have outbursts in public and like hit themselves like the dog will protect you from hitting yourself okay which i've seen some pretty cool like viral tiktoks of that but at the, I'm like, you set your phone up and recorded this. Right.

You knew you were going to have a panic attack. Were you recording for five hours? Yeah, just like, I feel one coming on. Or yeah. Let's set my phone up. Like any girl's Instagram story where she's crying. Come on. Oh, that kills me.

If you're crying hard enough, you don't have the social conscious, like awareness to like, I should record this. Yeah. If you're crying, I've lost a loved one. I what it's like to cry like sure that is not instagram story is the last thing on my mind that's that's what that's what's so sad to me is like the b word again yeah yeah it's okay we'll edit it out okay um yeah it is it's like it's like sad in a way of like oh like the first reaction is to go record yourself on instagram yeah like not to call

somebody and like talk more personally with them or just have a moment yeah yourself to actually be by yourself sure yeah that's odd so i didn't mean for all that to turn into that but that's okay anyway emotional support talks are awesome coach was awesome he's a golden doodle and yeah he like he didn't really sit when he told him to sit like like he would like come up and jump basic command he's having trouble with yeah he was like struggling i mean he was a little bit like shook by this airplane uh like every time like when it when it would take off and land and stuff but it was so fun like that's awesome having this dog next to me i love you're like you're already a little like

you know uh like judging this guy like i wonder if this dog is an emotional support dog and he was struggling with sit like okay this dog definitely didn't go to college yeah no this guy's not like super trained he the guy mentioned that he was moving to nashville and so i wonder if he was just like he found a way to get his dog verified on instagram right rather than like a carry-on with tsa or a check bag or whatever yeah so that was really fun though never never have i probably never will i you know again just get this awesome opportunity to hang out with this dog, you know, entertain me. So shout out to coach.

Sweet. Shout out to Scott. Scott Sell. Scott Peck. Yes. Oh, I'll double that. Shout out. OK.

He had a bunch of us over, made us dinner Sunday night for the Chiefs game, had us all over and we watched Chiefs game together with him and his family. Dude, that like I love watching football with my friends so much that I like had FOMO for that, even though I was literally at the football game. That's how I felt. I remember I was in Russia for Russia's Got Talent, but you guys were all together for Peter's wedding. Like, man, that sounds awesome. Right. I want to be a Peter's wedding. It just shows how much we value friendships over other experiences in our life. You know what I mean? Yeah, because it's just like, there's an aspect of, I don't know, just like what you've cultivated

over years and years and years is worth so much more than the first time experience. Yeah. Yeah. Weird way. It's like, Oh, I'm going to see hall of famer, Patrick Wilhelms and Travis Kelsey play football, but I'm going to miss watching with my friends on a TV screen and Sam made puppy chow. And I hear hers is the best. It was very, very good.

Do you think it's the best? It might be the best. Really? They put it in the fridge. This is my first chilled puppy. I like that. Chill chow. I'm always a good big fan of yeah. Chill chow. I think chill chow leaves less residue on your fingers. That's one of my reviews. I like that. I like that. I like that. But does it, does it mean that there's not as much sugar on the actual chow? Uh, just to chill. We had had mad clumps which i love chow clumps just give me clumps only clumps only yeah oops all clumps would be awesome got too much clump yeah so it was it was a great experience i think multiple times i said what's that song about the puppy chow it's like what you're gonna do with all those clumps all those clumps inside my

clumps you know what i think it's black eyed peas but i don't know what it's called oh the people are saying i got a feeling this night's gonna be a good night good good good night multiple times at night i said to scott dude just i am so content right now he told me that story really he said he said jake had his puppy chow and his glass of milk he said i am so content right now i was just so happy yeah laid back on this like weird chair that i've never seen very i don't know if that was mid-century modern. I don't know what kind of chair I was in. It's a Mormon thing.

Yeah, don't ask. It was a Mormon chair. Yeah, just Google it. Yeah, so I was sitting in a Mormon chair and boy, did it feel good. Yeah. It was like an ever-changing backrest, which I think is, you know, part of their theology. What? I don't know.

Yeah. It was just like, it was this heavy, I don't know how to describe it. I don't like the idea of ever changing anything. Just Google Mormon chair. I'm sure it'll come up. Yeah, you're right. And just imagine me with puppy chow in it. So shout out Scott.

Shout out Scott. I also give that shout to Scott. He drove me to the airport very early on Saturday morning and then picked me up late Monday night. And so, yeah, shout out full service. That's his like big thing. Like he was saying that like, yeah, full service baby. Tomorrow, maybe I'll get full serve.

Absolutely. You will probably will. There's no way you won't. I'll give you a hundred dollars. If you don't, I'm flying in a very normal hour, so I probably can make it happen. A hundred percent.

Yeah. More. Uh, okay. But another shout out I'll give is the, the shout out, uh, to the feeling when a plane takes off.

It's one of my, it's one of my top 25 feelings in the world. Really? It doesn't crack my top 50. I love it, dude. Like taking off, not, not landing at all. I don't like landing that much, off it's one of my it's one of my top 25 feelings in the world oh really doesn't crack my top 50 i love it dude like taking off not not landing at all i don't like landing that much but taking off like when you feel like like you're kind of going around the runway and then all of a sudden you stop for a second and all of a sudden i love that feeling like the feeling of like acceleration yes

i think lately they've been tantalizing me a little bit these new these pilots they like really gear up the engine to like slightly turn i'm like oh i thought that was it like it starts getting real loud so you're excited about it but then we didn't go anywhere yeah so i'm just like what was that for i don't know what we just revving we just showing off to the other planes they are they're like it's like a hot rod at the stoplight that's basically what they're doing yeah i love that feeling when you're like your head just like goes back against the headrest oh it's a great feeling i do i guess i like it once we start ascending because then it's like oh recliner time this is my time to fall asleep like now i'm leaned back yep i got about two minutes of leaned backness to make it happen yeah that's nice so shout out to that lean back yeah what's that song it's called lean back lean back lean back lean back I

So I was sleeping downstairs and I woke up and I was a little bit warm and I turned over my pillow because of the amazing phrase that I'm going to shout out now from Stuart Scott. Shout to the phrase.

Cool as the other side of the pillow. Great phrase. Great phrase. Great guy. Easily probably the best SportsCenter anchor phrase of all time to me. You know, it'd be a good trivia question is like, what was Stuart Scott referencing the first time he said that? Like, what was the clip?

Yeah, I don't know it we can guess though it was uh kevin duran's rookie or kevin garnett his rookie year in minnesota oh i was on no let me he dunked on who was it oh shoot carrie kittles i think i was thinking it was one of barry bond's first home runs when he's still with the pirates oh wow that was a long time ago yeah yeah yeah thinking it was one of Barry Bonds' first home runs when he was still with the Pirates. Oh, wow. That was a long time ago. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay. It was pre-steroids. Probably, as far as we know. He had a lower voice back then. Uh-huh.

Yeah, I just think that phrase is so awesome. And it's so true, too. The other side of the pillow is cold. Always. It felt so good when I turned it over. And dry. Do you think people knew that before Stuart Scott? Maybe they didn't know.

I'm dead serious. I don't know if I know. It was great observational comedy. Yeah. Or whatever. Just an observation, maybe. So shout out to that phrase. Shout out to Joel Harney.

Oh, Joel. He texted me this afternoon. Cool guy, Joel. He just said, the good guy discount comes in so clutch. Really? I said, tell me more. Yeah. He said, my mortgage is so much cheaper now.

What? No. So I think he was joking. So I texted back and said, just wait till you reverse mortgage and then he said good guy turns into bad boy don't think i want to know receive the bad boy discount sounds like every a re-baptism scenario so joel whatever you got on the good guy discount shout out to you yeah i assume it wasn't your mortgage but hey interest rates have never been lower. That's right. Bought liquor.

They've never been lower. Interest rates have never been lower. LukeHoglund.com. That's right. For free. That one was for free, Luke. Next one costs you. Okay.

Figured first time I tried it would be at Wawa in Philadelphia. You get it. I get it. Oh, look, we match. Just feeling the wordplay. I just really wanted to match it. So we're both wearing Navy shirts here. Oh, we're matching.

Yeah. But anyway, shout out to Wawa. It really was awesome. I don't I think it's apples and oranges to Quick Trip. I'm going to say that right now because Quick Trip is super fast. Like it's very efficient. Wawa is way more about like the food that they offer you. Dude, one thing I love about Quick Trip is you can have one cashier,

but you're running three registers. It's awesome. And he or she could do it so easily. It's like, why aren't more people doing this? It's not that hard to ring people up quickly i got a donut and a monster energy right it's so about to have a great night it's the beginning of a great night no yeah like they have one computer they always have two things right there why doesn't everybody do that it's yeah just so efficient yeah quick trip and they serve pizza they definitely serve pizza there

front and the back surely wawa serves i mean they have so much stuff there. So surely they serve pizza. But I don't want to confirm it without. That's safe. You know, I don't I want to spread misinformation and get. That's good. Get demonetized. That's right.

Or canceled. Both suck. I don't know what I'm more worried about getting demonetized or canceled. We're making so much money off these YouTube videos. But yeah, shout out to Wawa. My gosh, it's so good.

So I'll do one more shout out. Just that's what's up. There's this old tweet or it's like a year old like september 2020 that's like going around on instagram now people are like screenshotting it posting all these meme pages it's just something along the lines of like i'm seeing a lot of men out there making fun of women who believe in horoscopes while managing their fantasy football team i've been tagged in this about 20 times this past week sure so i want to give a shout out to that tweet uh just because i think it's so true yeah shout out to your rational logic for that one i think i just i couldn't agree more with the logic how easily those things are to

compare to each other honestly how much sense it makes i don't know why i didn't think of that earlier because they do fancy football or fancy horoscope drafts right like and people like choose like their horoscope they're like i'm gonna go virgo one one oh man i was gonna choose that one are you in snake draft or read auction because i'll auction for that virgo you know if not i'll go pisces but yeah and i i think it's i think it's just a really well-worded tweet i think it sheds a lot of light i think it's uh it's good commentary i'm trying to even understand like at all how those things are connected i'll tell you how brad please um so basically there are plenty of tiktoks every day that go viral that are like i used to work for cosmopolitan magazine i used to be

a horoscope writer and i just made them up every day i would try to say the most vague ambiguous things and every day people play football. Oh, okay. So when you think about like, these things are happening like all the time. Yeah, they're both every day. For guys and girls every day, stuff is occurring. So that's the parallel is every day. So just like shout out like daily, these things are occurring.

So like, you can be like, I think it's so funny how people make fun of people for doing their horoscopes when guys brush their teeth every day. I can see that. Yeah. That's reasonable. I think it's so crazy that guys don't get made fun of for playing fantasy football when girls get made fun of for going to the bathroom. Yeah, that's a realistic possibility. I could see that. I think it's ridiculous how girls get made fun of for doing their horoscopes. But nobody, no guy ever gets in trouble for putting on a seatbelt when he drives.

Yeah, yeah, I could see that yeah i could very much see that okay so we could have some viral tweets here we can have viral tweets okay let's try it so there's my shout out okay thanks for tagging me and all this i did think of one more shout out uh shout out to my accidental joke that i made today during uh during a g-shorts this is weird it was to the point where like i don't know like is there foul play involved can we believe brad you do you have to judge you guys be the judge i tell everything i tell i'm 100 i tell every day i tell things every day so i don't know why i'm not getting made fun of for that um we at the end of this video we basically make fun into the dog people video we poke fun at

cat people and i made the joke towards this cat person of like we're like get out of here get out of here we don't like your cat if you want and i said without thinking these parallels i promise believe me if you want but i said yeah if we wanted to i don't know exactly what i said but i was like if we wanted to see some cats we go look watch a broadway play and after we got done filming jake's like that was kind of funny what you said like a good improv line about broadway play and i was like yeah i just kind of thought about it and like and he's like and and then i maybe i connected i was like oh my gosh oh my gosh i didn't mean to say that cats is like a musical on broadway like yeah i think it's like

the biggest one i was like i wasn't even thinking that i was like how were you how could you say cats link it with broadway and not think i promise i just like said what like i i did tell jake i was like i was kind of thinking of the lion king in my head when i was thinking of cats like lions and stuff and so that's what made me think of the broadway play thing but like there was no like purposeful connection at all to the point where it still is kind of like freaking me out in my own head like what am i capable of i just talk without thinking about it. Dude. Allen Iverson is so good.

It's like, anytime there's like a question, if the game's going to be over, he's like the answer to the question. Oh my gosh. Oh my gosh. I forgot. They call him the answer.

I'd even mean, Oh my gosh. Holy cow. How did I do that? How'd that happen? That's crazy. What? What's that?

How did? Oh, Deon Sanders. Like? That's crazy. What? What's that? How did? Oh, Deion Sanders, like he was so fun to watch. Oh my gosh. You had to watch him. Only like, like anytime you watched him, it was like, this is the prime time of football, right? He was like Monday night. Wait a second.

Oh my gosh. They called him prime time. That was like his nickname. I wasn't even trying to do that. Like to this day, they still call him prime time. No, dude. I was just, I was just saying, like just talking about dion sanders and that happened oh my goodness dude oh my god holy cow dude dude i was dude i was playing i was playing rock paper scissors with duane duane johnson

johnson and i went paper and actually beat him because he was The Rock. Oh, really? Yeah, it was kind of fun. Wait, Dwayne Johnson. Oh my gosh. You know like his nickname. I didn't even realize.

It was the same Dwayne Johnson who's known as The Rock. You just said that? How did? You should have always, yeah. Of course he goes Rock. And you didn't think about it. He's The Rock. I didn't even realize.

Oh my gosh, dude. Oh my gosh. That's insane, dude. That's it. He's right. I didn't even realize. Oh, my gosh, dude. Oh, my gosh. That's insane, dude. That's crazy. That's insane. I don't know of any other ones. That's pretty funny. We didn't play in any of that.

That was kind of fun. Yeah. The cat's one was true, guys. I promise. But the cat's one. A minute. Oh, wow. Oh, wow.

Okay. Those are my shout outs for this week. I just thought of something else just because i got a text from her just now i know we've been plugging the patreon a lot recently but not only is the march madness oh the noise is back not only is the march madness video up on patreon right now whichever loved but people loved megan and i telling this story enough that uh we actually told another story that took a little longer we're posting in two parts but a long time ago when i went to trey's wedding in austin on the podcast i mentioned like a whole bunch of crazy stuff went down i'll tell you guys on the podcast like six months from now yes um telling another patreon now so just there's

another there's a lot of like really like uh thrown together like long video long form videos going on patreon it's a long story plenty of stuff to consume it's a funny yeah crazy story as well and i have so many like videos on my phone and pictures on my phone from that weekend that i threw a lot of those in there too so that's like you know a little like yeah there's a little spice to the video did you sometimes put the video with the audio underneath it or did you one time love it one time for big daddy had to do it at least once for big daddy yep did it once okay so there you go just know that there's a lot of stuff going right now have you thought about your price for um patreon premium yeah

yeah so there there's an aspect to the march madness story that uh leaves people still wanting more and not in like a marketing way not because I'm trying to weasel more money out of people, but it's just truly just so private. I just like, I can't show this. And I still think that's where I stand. It's like, I don't really want this out.

Even if it was just a price, baby guys, guys keep pushing for it. Just for the patrons. It still seems like too many people. And for her sake, it's like, I don't think the profits with her.

I don't think she, I don't think she'll split the profits with her i don't think she i don't think i know she would not want that i don't want her to have that out there we'll name your price though for real but hey we'll see you at the comments yeah yeah it's probably fine without that being out there all right five and twenty syrups at Starbucks. Caramel, mocha, vanilla, paprika, and matcha. There you go. I'm sure those last two are syrups. Dude, I don't know. Peppermint. Oh.

Hazelnut. Did you say that? That's a syrup? Yeah. I thought it was nut shavings. Vanilla is also like not just syrup, you know. That makes sense. It's just the word hazelnut just okay i'm

not a coffee guy never made my own really i love the idea of like can i get a little hazelnut in there and they're like yeah they're grinding it up in there for you and you're like tell me why they do it like a parmesan cheese at like an italian restaurant yeah let me win that should be good right there uh should we do we i think we're gonna play one voice memo okay let's do it we need to warn them okay uh this it's not like inappropriate necessarily but like we know there's a lot of like kids who listen or like parents who watch it with their kids they're like 10 and under you may not want to hear this voice memo yes it's i don't know it's pg-13 if your kids watch pg-13 then go ahead it's fine okay but yeah just know here we go we're

gonna play it right now so make make it here we go what's up jake and brad this is an anonymous message because of the content of the story when my husband and i were married for about a year his parents came to visit us and me trying to be a good daughter-in-law insisted that they take our room and we'd take the guest room so it's a a Sunday morning. My husband is a pastor. We're scrambling to get ready. We realized that his belt is in our bedroom, and I said, it's fine. Your mom is downstairs in the bathroom. Your dad is upstairs showering because I saw both lights and heard showers. I quick knock on their door just to be sure, don't hear anything, and open the door. His parents are butt naked, doing the dirty.

We make eye contact, and I said, I'm so sorry, and close the door. And we haven't spoken about it since. It's been eight years. So there's your question. I've been living with this for eight years. What do I do? Okay. Okay.

So much to unpack. Yeah. First of all, i have a few questions right off the bat yeah doing the dirty what is that like dishes no dude oh clothes go do your dirty clothes they said they were naked so they were doing it naked but they were yeah they just had all their dirty clothes off of them no since no one uh young is listening to this it's talking about sexual intercourse oh the, the compact spot. But they're, hey, shout out, they're married. So shout out to Covenant Bonds. Yeah, that's a big check mark right there. Big check mark. So that's what he calls it.

I I don't want to talk I want to talk a lot about this, but I don't know how much I want to say on a podcast form. I can't imagine. I can't imagine i can't imagine first of all this is you have in-laws so you're in a position where you can imagine it exactly to me this is kind of just like neutral like oh that's a bummer like but i don't have anyone to imagine like i know

exactly yeah like ah first of all i feel weird even talking about this kind of stuff because obviously this is like something we don't talk about. First of all, morning? Pretty bold. Before church? At your son's house? He's a pastor? Pretty bold. He's getting ready for church? Yeah. Okay, so did she tell her husband right after it happened? Had to. Had to.

You know he's looking out like, let's open our Bibles, you know, like to Song of Solomon. So you see somebody has already had their quiet time today. Like, I just, I don't know what I would think. On either side, being the in-law or the son in that instance. Are they, I wonder if they're old enough to not be embarrassed by it or if they just like, they can't even like look at her the same way yeah because once you get once you get married

like that stuff becomes much less taboo much less like you know whatever like oh my gosh you guys have this experience like whatever but still like i'll never want to talk about with my in-laws ever and the fact like they made eye contact, she said, I wonder, ah, I would say I don't want to see it, but I wonder like, where is the eye contact happening? Like, like, yeah. Are they under the sheets? Yeah. Yeah. Are we doing, doing it? I don't know. Yeah. It's like how much distance was there? Right. Did you see where it started? We're number one. Let's just say if it were an iPod, it would be a shovel.

No, I think, yeah. And the fact, like, they messed up. The parents messed up by not saying something. All they had to say was, just a minute. Or, just a second. Or, oh, I'm changing. Anything. I just thought of three things right there.

Very close. Quick five and ten excuses they could have said right when they knocked. Go. Hey, hold on a second. Just a minute. Oh, we're changing. Be right out. right when they knocked. Go. Hey, hold on a second. Just a minute. Oh, we're changing. Be right out. Don't come in.

We're doing it. Any of those would have stopped her. And if anything, that's where it stops right there. Don't come in. We're doing it. Even that's better than, yeah, obviously coming in. Bold move of her. Good move, like, as a wife to be like, let me help you get your i would i would have just been like like hey just just untuck your shirt today like

i don't know what kind of church they go to maybe it's like a more formal church i just i you got you gotta have you gotta have the son say something to the dad i think because that's the most like dad like you can't be doing this man like he He can't be, though? Or can he? No. Just lock the door. No. L to D and then G to D. I don't know how you... The dad, those guys are brave. The parents are brave.

And just the fact that they couldn't do it at night. I'd like to give a shout out to that father-in-law. I mean, healthy relationship for them. The bravery, the healthiness. Yeah. The audacity yeah the audacity i don't mean yeah um i just i i don't know it all it all just makes me cringe for her you know yeah it's something i hope i never experience but if i do now that i know i'm not the only one

that that is so cringy no matter what that's so cringy like if they were to like come out and be like i want to talk to you and say i'm really sorry for you no that would be really uncomfortable but it's also crazy uncomfortable that like they've just had all these family dinners together hey we're gonna get together for my birthday like oh i guess we're not gonna be doing it too late because i know what you guys are gonna go home and do i can picture it like who, I, obviously I'm not in the situation, but it'd really be nice to talk about it. You got to be the right scenario. Like you all went on a trip together.

It's kind of late. You had a few drinks. Let's talk about it. Get out of the way. Okay. And move on. I think so. I would love to talk about it.

It's got to be talked about eventually. We need to, if not, I'll come in. I'll come into the family. I'll get it. Maybe so. Maybe that's what we do.

So is there a, is there a single, uh, girl in the family? If so, plant'll come in. I'll come into the family. I'll get it. Maybe so. Maybe that's what we do. So is there a single girl in the family? If so, plant Jake as like this. Wait, where's this going? Oh, this is great. This is great. So there's a single girl in the parents' family, right? Got it.

Plant Jake as like this boyfriend that she thinks is pretty serious, comes around. Somehow you weasel into the conversation and get them to talk about it. Whatever that means. Whether it's like, you know, like you guys are all just talking about like never have i ever oh i've all played never have ever or you know like some kind of get to know you yeah board game or something and never ever ever like let someone come in my room that i don't live in without saying something right never have i ever had a heart-to-heart about something that happened eight years ago that's still really embarrassing so my uh so i got hired to uh

yeah so did this conversation anyone anybody okay just me okay i'll move spots all right and you guys go ahead i'm gonna go ahead and get out of here thirsty yeah i'm gonna go get a drink of water ice while you guys talk about this for There you go. That's crazy. I have one other story that kind of is on the same realm. That's fun. It's not really as extreme as this. Is it rated P? Maybe it is.

Should we wait? I'll tell it on Patreon. Cool. It's not my own personal story, but it's still a really funny story. Okay, sorry for maybe the poor audio just then, but we're back. We're back to good audio and we're done talking about stuff.

So children, welcome back. Uh, we're going to do our reviews of the week. Brad, what is yours? Uh, mine is coming from Jenna grace. Zero three. Uh, it's called double chicken for less. I'm very intrigued by this. Yeah. Hey, Jake and Brad. Hey. Hi. Yeah. Sorry. No, I'm just kidding. Just wanted to say how much I appreciate this podcast. Y'all have helped me through having my wisdom teeth out, COVID and food poisoning. Lots of stuff in the mouth. Y'all never fail to make me laugh. I started listening in June and I'm almost all the way caught up. As a former Chipotle employee, here's how you get as much chicken without paying double.

I like this. Ask, can you give me as much chicken as possible without it being double? Oh. Just straight up ask. Just go, yeah, sentence. If someone asked like that, I would load that sucker up and not mark the bowl as double. Anyway, thanks for all you do. That's that's just a lesson for life.

Probably like just ask for what you want. Yeah. If you don't like those, if you want those shoes, but they're a little too expensive, say, hey, can I get those shoes for $70? And if they say yes, like, yeah, I'll do that. Now you got $70 shoes. I like that. So thank you, Jenna Grace.

My review of the week comes from a guy named Billy Blue Jeans, which I love. That's a great name. That's a good character. Will from Dallas here. So Willie. Willie. Willie Blue Jeans. Willie Woo Jeans.

Willie Woo Jeans. Will from Dallas here. Long time listener, first time caller. I stumbled upon Ghost Runners after hearing Jake on Correct Opinions and Do Less God Bless RIP. And honestly, both my wife and I agree that we like Ghostrunners more. We are always racing

to see who gets done with the podcast first and recap many of the things y'all talk about each week. Like y'all are just a part of the family. Hot dog. Fun little Easter egg for you.

I was maybe a year into the pod when I saw that Jake was mutual friends on Instagram with one of my old coworkers, Rachel. Brad accidentally punched her years ago.

I texted her and asked if she knew Jake and she proceeded to tell me all about you guys and the history there. Maybe even more of a fan. Because of the mutual friendship, not because of the accidental domestic violence, obviously. I identify with your humor so much and tell my wife constantly that I feel like we'd all be best friends.

So if y'all are ever in Dallas together, I'd love to buy you boys coffee slash Chick-fil-A, quote The Office, imitate Patty Mahomes. Get embarrassed in a few rounds of pickleball. Oh, there was no and. I didn't know that was the end of the list. Anyway, love you guys.

See you soon, hopefully, and always bring your best. That's fun, Billy Blue Jeans. Billy Blue Jeans from Dallas. Love it. That was a great review. Thanks for listening, and thanks for taking the time to write that out. I'm trying to think of something he could tell Rachel for me, but I don't know. Cool.

I know. Sorry. Let's think of... I don't know. Cool. I know. Sorry. Let's think of. I don't know. Nah. Nah. Anyway. Jake.
