Maybe we should just not be funny anymore. Yeah. Why are we trying to do a comedy podcast? I don't know. Are we doing a comedy podcast?

Or is it just like we're just talking about our lives and every once in a while we make funny jokes? And people want to take pictures with us in public for some reason. Yeah. Like, I didn't know people were listening. I was just talking to Brad. Yeah. Oh, those things were microphones?

Oh. Oh, gosh. I don't know what that was in front of me. I thought that was like a really skinny pillow. I just kind of lean up against. You know, HomeGoods is selling crazy was in front of me. I thought I was like a really skinny pillow. I just kind of lean up against, you know, home goods is selling crazy stuff. I didn't, I thought it was some sort of table to call. I mean, do not sit on it. I'll just say that. It's not a water torpedo. I'll say that it does. It looks like it.

So Christmas week. Christmas week. Hey guys, it's not December 20th for us because I took a leave of absence. Yeah. And LOA. So we're, we're recording Sunday night, December 12th, 930 PM. What are you guys doing right now? On December 12th. And as you're listening to this December 20th, backwards time,

inception 2012. Yeah. Yeah. So here we are. We're, we're doing it. We hung out earlier today, which was fun. We got to watch the Chiefs. Guys, I don't know if you know this. Guys, they're whooping them. The Chiefs are amazing.

What was it today? Doesn't matter. A hundred and zero. Something like that. Thirty five to zero in the first. No, no. Thirty five to three in the first half. I mean, just just just stop having any doubt with Patrick F.

Mahomes and Andy F. Reed. That's all I'm going to say. All right. Just know that they are going to win the Super Bowl again. And what? Four days ago when you were listening to this, we played primetime Thursday night. Oh, yeah.

Chargers. Probably no problem. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Are you kidding? No. Everyone's like Justin Herbert.

Oh, watch out for Justin Herbert. His last name is Herbert. It stinks to the second best quarterback. You know, the upcoming quarterback plays the same division as us. Blah, blah, blah. 38 to 4. We beat them. They got two safeties. That's it. That's your score for the ship. 38 to 4. There were two bad snaps on punts. That's it.

They went in the end zone. Tommy Towns just punted them out. It wasn't any like the main guy's fault. No one knew who plays. No, Mahomes would never make a mistake. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Good, good, good. Anyway, yeah, I got to see Brad earlier today and he was dressed in exactly what he guy's fault. No one knew plays would never make a mistake. Yeah. Yeah. Good. Good. Good. Um, anyway, yeah. I got to see Brad earlier today and he was dressed in exactly what he was wearing last night. No, as a great life hack. So yeah, last night as Jake kind of alluded, we went to trace Christmas party and that's the best thing about when you go out and like dress up on a

Saturday night is that, you know, exactly what you're wearing to church the next morning. It's like, yeah, I can, I can just put this on this, you know, do you have like a, somewhere where you put your clean chair? Yeah, yeah, exactly. We have a little chair that we've never sat on. We just have in our room to put our clothes that aren't that dirty on. Yeah. I love picking out chairs, like going to like a furniture store, like which chair do I want to put clean clothes on? Yeah. No, this one seems like it has a pretty nice back. And so it would fold well. It can hold a heavy coat. No problem. It would, it won't tip over with a heavy coat you put a p-coat on there you are just fine no problem his and hers yes p-coat holders right so yeah i i was just like like i told gathers like i don't i don't have any shame in it i'm gonna wear the exact same thing and with with full knowledge of

like all my friends will see me the next day and know exactly that i was the second you walked in which by the way i was already in your house but the second you walked into your house and i was over there we're like whoa late, late night. I was like, yeah, is it yesterday already? Just getting in from last night. It was great though. So is it yesterday already? Is that a phrase or just make that up? I made it up. That's funny. Yeah. You like that? I mean, I don't know if I, I, I bet somebody said that before, but I don't think it's like from, Oh, that's, that's from elf. Remember, you know, Gary Vee doesn't have a copyright. Do you, do you ever do that?

Like, I think yes, just the other day when we were brainstorming for jean shorts or like filming dream shorts, whatever shooting. I think you said something and I was like, what's that from? Because sometimes like, as somebody that like make jokes a lot or like, as like somebody that has that personality, but also as a guy, you're always like, oh, that's funny. That must be from a movie. And you're like, I don't know. I'll just, I'll just make it something up.

Oh, it was during the podcast last week. I was like, you're, you're watching TV. You're watching TV. And I was like, what is that? And you're like, I don't know. Just, just be goofy. You want to know? I realized it once I listened back to it.

In the moment, I was like, I don't know. I'm just doing that. But it was from something. What is it? It was like the same cadence of like talking as the movie Tommy Boy, when he's like trying to do the sales pitch where eventually he eventually sets the car on fire. It's like, let me, let me talk to you about this. You're driving around, you're driving around kids in the back. Shut up.

You know, whatever. I think it was from that. So nothing's original. Yeah. What does he say when the meat wagons come in? Here comes the meat wagon. Fun fact about that is that my sister, Julie, uh, once like spoke, they used to have like this youth event, like once a month, like for like Christian youth. And she spoke at it one time. And so I saw like, for whatever reason, she used that clip in the speech. Oh. And so that was the first time I'd ever seen Tom. It was like when I was like eight years old, I went to watch her do this.

And yeah, she did like, it was like to Tommy boy. And I was like, I have some Christian speech. What kind of, what kind of movie is this? I don't know what, what the illustration was that needed to have that. Anyway. Yeah. Yeah. It was kind of funny, like walking into my house and my friends are already there, but

it wasn't the first time. No. Yeah. And we had just walked in. How do you turn on the TV yet? There you go. Probably because the garlands in the way. Dude, that darn garland.

We're going to record a, record bad christmas uh video this week and i'm gonna talk about the garland with the clicker yeah look darn garland's in the way of my clicker i've started unironically using the word clicker every once in a while i'm like stop it's remote control it's remote control stop it we're just remote we're just remote yeah i remember um you know are you hearing the morse code there is beeping happening dude huh is that the aliens i don't know i mean i i don't know you guys probably definitely can't hear it but just imagine imagine you guys are in the middle of recording podcasts in an empty house that hasn't been lived in in two weeks

and all of a sudden in your headphones just hear all of a sudden a telegram from iwo jima is this a day that will live in infamy i don't know if that means anything holy cow um oh the remote control just remind me and also a little preview this involves someone with the march madness story okay we tried to have a dtr one time and she was like what's dtr don't touch the remote and i was like no do you want to have a dtr uh don't touch the remote yes that is what we were going to do i want to talk about it who gets the let's say we end up together who gets the remote yeah how do we decide because i'd like to say don't touch the remote yeah i would say let's do a dtr um that's

actually a pretty fun idea for a gene shorts video is like christian sayings that other people don't have any idea what they are yeah because don't you think dtr is like a christian thing maybe it is oh gosh i just got a text it didn't buzz in time i saw it over here before i got the buzz i muted it quick fingers yeah it could be fun like speaking christianese yeah yeah yeah dtr i don't i don't know what else would be like i mean just like the the fluffy things that people on my heart like whoa whoa on top is that supposed to be yeah yeah um what would some other good examples be just like yeah on my heart's good like it's on my heart

like um my quiet time i don't think other people have quiet times what does that mean yeah what's like like like when you like wake up and you haven't checked your phone yet and then you go poop like you're on your phone like is checked your phone yet and then you go poop? Like you're on your phone? Like, is that your quiet time? I don't know. That's probably good. Yeah, we can brainstorm a little more.

Let it be your words and not mine? Yeah. Whose words? What do you mean? Why would it not be your words? Oh, yeah. Dude, we've been, our church right now is doing Revelation. Yeah, I was talking to Catherine about that. It's so good, dude.

I mean, it's so amazing. It's so good, dude. I mean, it's so amazing. It's so complicated and wild, but I always think like if somebody just came into this church right now, that's just like not a Christian and doesn't have any background, like, uh, like, like it's already like,

there's some, there's some verses in the Bible that are already pretty like, whoa, the blood of the lamb was slain, you know, whatever. Like, but this is like next level,

dude. It's like amazing. I mean, but it's amazing. And it's like the pastor is such a good job of bringing it back and making it hopefully like attainable and understandable for people that aren't believers. But yeah, it's just like, what in the world? I think about that when like you're at a church or maybe your church and they're having a sermon about like giving it's like dang i hope nobody's new today yeah it's not normally like this yeah i think he just has to do this once a year i don't know i think the elders are making him do it maybe yeah i yeah i don't know enough about like the true stereotypes versus like the stereotypes that christians give each other you know what i mean like i think i hear like oh yeah like people say that we talk about giving too much or whatever i

don't know but i don't know if that's really true if that's just like our own whatever what's the word insecurities but sure uh anyway trace party anyway yeah uh the dress code was christmas cocktail which is hard to figure out but i just wore a suit i was like i'm just gonna play it safe and just wear a suit can't go wrong yeah you always take off the blazer if you were overdressed but you weren't you look great i was talking to alan which was pretty cool i definitely want to make a point to say hi to him and because he drove all the way up from tulsa yeah i saw him there and i was like hey alan what's up and then i was like wait a second you live in tulsa yeah because so it was funny because he was like i gave him a

hard time because he was wearing an outfit that i'd seen him wear on stage before and he's like yeah you know my secrets like nobody else knows know, I'm repeating outfits or whatever. But he's like, it's funny. Like, I didn't know this was like, I didn't know the dress code. Yeah. He was like, I was excited. I was like, I might be a little overdressed tonight and I don't mind, you know, like I might be looking pretty sharp tonight. And he was pretty underdressed. Yeah. It's well, it's pretty rare to, to have a dress code really at all for anything besides a wedding these days. Right. Like, well, it's all black tie optional right but but like i i really quickly like looked at the first of all i wasn't planning on going i was like you weren't i was like katherine is my my

wonderful angel who's just like usually like i don't really feel like we should you know whatever i don't want i'm not up for that let's just stay home and i'm like great you got so much going on yeah i i genuinely was like yeah i would work during that time and you could, you know, sit by the stockings and watch, you know, whatever your somewhere girls. Oh yeah. Yourself. Same thing. And, but she's like, no, that sounds really fun. We should do it. And so I was like, okay, but it was fun. I like, once I get there, I'm like, yeah, of course this is fun. But I also just really enjoy being home. But, uh, yeah. So I looked at the invitation, I said, Christmas cocktail. She's like, and luckily Catherine, like if it weren't for Catherine, I probably would have just worn, I don't even know what like Crocs. Yeah. Probably

Crocs. I thought it said Croctail. Croctail. Oh, that's my bad. No Croctail. Yeah. Croctail. So you literally are coming with like an alligator tail coming up. Croctail option. Croctail Christmas. Um, but luckily she's like, no, no cocktail is like somewhat fancy. Like it's like right below casual, you know, business casual or whatever. I was like, okay, great. So I don't think it's right below. I think it's close. I think it's above. Oh really? Business casual business. I wore a suit that's way above business casual. I think business casual. Uh, yeah, maybe you're right. Let's, let's look it up. I don't know. I think there's like so many different definitions of every definition does that make sense like like i bet some people would

say like on google business casual is i mean the word casual is involved there's no way they could be nicer than a suit okay here's traditional business casual versus modern business casual uh traditional business casual is pretty much what you were wearing you were you were wearing a suit this is like uh slacks with the blazer but now modern business casual is khakis with like just a button okay now show me presbyterian business casual okay let me look that up and see what comes in if traditional modern presbyterian presbyterian business casual okay not not finding much this is like joel trainer's game like what can you type into google to get the least amount of results? There's here's a guy, his name is, he's on staff with grace Presbyterian church.

Okay. Um, grace of Aiken. Let's see where Aiken is. Ohio. His name is Reverend Trent still. I just love the idea of like, this is my pastor.

Like, like somebody out there, Aiken, South Carolina, pretty much Trent still here. He is in Presbyterian business casual. Oh, okay. You think so?

Just slightly. Just a blazer. Yeah. Khakis and a button up. Yeah. Okay. And like a face that hasn't been shaved in three days. Maybe four.

I don't know. So. So that was the dress code. Yeah. And yeah, which I kind of like trained Katie. We're like millennials never dress up anymore. We want to like have a nice Christmas party every year. We have to dress up and i was like i can respect that i'll wear a suit yeah i couldn't find my suit pants though for a long time because i'm living in two

places and it's just a mess i found them in this basement over there underneath sawdust oh fun and underneath sawdust what do you mean over in in this room yeah in this basement over that by that shelf i don't know if you can see the shelf but yeah i just kind of knocked it off and i was like i mean most of it came off yeah i have yeah and i was like this is better than going to marshall's right now and finding something that's gonna matter oh my gosh yeah way better just wear it who cares it's pants be different it was like the jacket didn't look nice but i'm like i was looking at pants i think pants even if they're wrinkly,

once you wear them, they don't look too bad. Yeah, once you get some like body heat in there, you're good. Like get some body heat, get the heated seat going in the car, you're fine.

Speaking of body heat, surprising topic of conversation at the party last night was a certain wedding that Harrison went to where he developed knee sweat. Were you part of this conversation? No, I wasn't there.

Oh, it was phenomenal. Okay. Abby was like, tell us like, yeah, Harrison's got pretty? No, I wasn't there. Oh, it was phenomenal. Okay. Abby was like, tell us like, yeah, Harrison's got pretty sweaty. So I don't know how we're going to talk about it. He's like, one time he got, his knees got really sweaty. Are we talking front or back of knees? Yeah. So I was like, oh, like the back of your knees?

Like, no, like his kneecaps. I was like, no. She's like, I have a picture somewhere. Sure enough, she sends me a picture of Harrison dressed very nice at a wedding. I would say probably Southern Baptist business casual. Okay. And the front, it looks like he's wearing volleyball knee pads. There is such a different color than the rest of his pants.

The front of his knees are so wet. I don't even know how that's possible. It was so funny. Specifically, not the thighs though. Like I feel like if you're sweating on your knees, it's because it's trickling down your thighs. No, dry thighs. Just really wet knees.

I will say Harrison's style is pretty tight. Yeah. Both in cool factor and in like literal tightness. And so I could imagine, I could see him getting like, yeah, some sweaty knees, but. He claims he came up later and was like, what are you guys talking about?

And then he had to defend himself. And he said like, your knee is always against like the fabric. Okay. When he was dancing, apparently. I don't know. Maybe when you're sitting down, is always against like the fabric. Okay. When he was dancing, apparently. I don't know. Maybe when you're sitting down, it's always against the fabric. Not when you're, when you're dancing, it's, it's a little looser.

That's funny. Either way, he just claimed that it was a lot of rubbing. Do you remember when we went to Crenshaw's wedding? The time that we recorded on the, in the truck on the way there? Yeah. And Isaac. Isaac at the like ceremony, not even at the wedding, like, like reception where we were dancing or anything.

He was like crazy pitting out. He lost like a half gallon of sweat. And Isaac's like, you know, not, he's a skinny dude. Like he's not like a, he's not like, oh, he's just a big man sweating in Texas in July. He sweats less than you and I do. But something happened that day. Yeah. Something was off.

Off. Something was just, something was really off. Don't you know? Something else happened at the Christmas party last night. I, I learned something about you, Brad, which. Oh, good. I don't know if I knew this before. Either way, it felt like new information.

Okay. I'm nervous. Yeah. So we're talking to a little group. Am I there? No. We're talking about the intermeter race that I ran recently. The intermeters.

Okay. Harrison and Abby are talking like we race sometimes too. Like no way. Oh gosh. Go ahead. Oh gosh, go ahead. Oh my gosh. Catherine. There's another couple there. That's like, we've got a bit of race too. Like no way. And then Catherine goes, Brad and I raced. And I was like, no way you guys have raced. And I'm just kidding. She was like, yeah, Brad one day was saying how slow he thought I was.

So I said, go outside, go meet me in the road right now. We're going to race. Yep. And she said, I said, three, two, one, go. And I just took off. And Brad said he was laughing too hard. And that's why he couldn't. That's true. Yeah. Which I believe it. I believe that because that's a funny thing to just see Catherine so serious. Also like, all right, we're racing right now. Pulling back three, two, one. Like that's pretty funny. Yeah. Oh, like, like how determined she was, but also did she tell you that she wasn't wearing shoes? She's like, so proud of that fact. Uh, she did not mention that she was in the street without shoes, which that's another thing that she makes fun of me a lot is that I have very sensitive feet because I didn't grow up without shoes on very often.

And so like, like if I walk on the street and there's like a pebble, it hurts my foot. Ouch. And whereas she's running, you know, down the street with bare feet. And so like, I, yeah, but she was so determined and I couldn't take it seriously. I could have, I could have smoked her dude.

Well, it sounds like she beat you twice. She definitely did. I still think I'm faster than Catherine, but she beat you twice. What was the second time? Catherine said the first time you were like, I was laughing way too hard.

We got to go again. Oh, I think these are two separate times. Oh time you were like, I was laughing way too hard. We got to go again. Oh, I think these are two separate times. Oh, and then I think. Either way, the story goes, it should be twice. And I was loving this story. I was dying laughing. I think we need a third race. Sure.

Hey, February 12th is going to be a race. Can you imagine all these people around? Going to a local high school track. Yeah, I like to take some breakaway pants, just take them off. I just did like a tight, some tight shorts. And Catherine's what?

I mean, seven months pregnant at that point, probably. I mean that, I mean the bedding, that's your excuse. You know, you're pregnant,

signed up for it because you have a big belly. You can't run as fast. Yeah. I don't get that excuse. Oh yeah. That's, that's funny. Yeah.

I, it was so fun. It's one of those things where it's like, I, I, I can't lose to my wife at this, but I did fair and square when she made me laugh. Like don't, is it, is it, I, I just, if I laugh, my, my strength is like, I'm like Samson with no hair. Like I'm like a bald Samson. Like I just can't do anything. Like you could make me laugh and tackle me to the ground and like pin me down and I'm done. Like, I can't like gutter will do that. He'll like wrestle with me and he'll just make me laugh. And I'm like, I just, so I'm defensive. Yeah. I can't all my strength that I have, which, you know, is not, I'm like, not like the strongest guy in the world or anything, but it's, it's done. I'm done. So make them laugh. Yeah. I guess so. Speaking of that stone, Barry, Stan, Barry, Stan, Barry, how are we feeling?

Um, good, better. I, I still, I still like, like tomorrow is like the day where it's like, get it all down, get it all down. Like tomorrow, I still have a lot of stuff going on tomorrow. Um, but one of the things that I'm just like, I have to push those things aside for a little bit is for this. So, um, so the, the plan is like tomorrow to get, you know, every single joke down that I know what I'm doing and then practice it some Tuesday, I'm going to like practice it crazy hard and memorize it Wednesday, you know, same thing, like crazy hard, memorize it and then perform the crap out of it. So sweet.

Yeah. We'll see how it goes, man. I, I mean, I'm still nervous because it's one of those things where it's like, until you execute, like, like I'm not necessarily nervous that I don't know what's funny or what is fun. Like it's the memorization. It's the memorization. And it's like, yeah, it's the execution of it. Like, oh man, I totally forgot this thing. Or, oh man, I should have waited longer to do this. Or, oh man, for whatever reason, my voice is really shaky and I have no idea why, you know, like, like, like things that you can't plan for as much. And so it's like, it's just, it's just scary when I haven't done it very big.

Yeah, absolutely. So does it still feel like you're being paid enough to put all this time into it? Um, yeah, I think so. Okay. I view it, I view it somewhat of like, it's going to be great to get paid initially. I also view it as like, once I have this foundation down, I could, if anybody asked me ever again, I can be like, yes, I can do that. You know? Yes, I can do that. And I'll just tweak this or yes. Like, like I could do this exact same thing. F12, you know, February 12th. And it would be, it would do well. You're building like an e-course or something. Like I do it once and now people could pay for it. Exactly. Like I'm putting in like the foundational work for the future as well. And just experience it. Like, like I would, I would like to do comedy no matter what, you know, like open mic nights,

I would like to do more often. And so the fact that like open mic nights, a, you have to wait like two hours through this hell to like, listen to all these people say the worst jokes ever that are just trying to be so inappropriate that people laugh at them and to do five minutes and B you're not getting paid at all for those. I'm like, I want to do more of those. And so I'll gladly take this money and do this kind of thing. So it'll be good. I think no matter what, it's going to be great podcast content. Like there's just no way it's going to be like a mediocre story. And what kind of stinks is people won't get it for a while i know i know

which is a bummer but maybe there's gonna be like some some sneak preves on patreon or whatever yes i'll try to get dim check to you know record some of it you know it'd be funny like i did a couple like venue tours do like a tour of the venue of stanbury's venue so this is the public bathroom that i share with everybody else who comes hey Hey, Steve, how are you? Yeah, yeah, it'll be interesting. I had texted, I think I put this on the Ghostwriter story this past week, but I was texting Greg Peterson because I had a joke about Kansas dirt and like- Fertilizer jokes.

Yeah, I was like, could you give me like some advice of like what like some people that would be trash talking about dirt would say? And he of course didn't have anything because that's not a normal thing. But I'm really excited. Can I just, can I, can I kind of tell our. Yeah, get after it. So we have a conversation with one of our friends the other day, who's a teacher and she was talking about, um, yeah, yeah, yeah. Um, it was, it was, it was genuinely like,

if we would have said on the podcast, it would have been the most proud joke I would have said. It has happened five minutes after we got him recording last week's podcast episode. It was very close in my opinion to acidic juice. Like, like one of those ones that's like, I can't believe that was just like on a silver platter. It worked out beautifully. Yeah. Um, and it's going to be hard for me to exactly tell it quite right. But, but she was talking about how she had a great day. She works at a school and, um, like once a month, this guy comes and brings these like treats for the kids and this food and stuff.

Doesn't work there though. Doesn't work there. But people just love them. People love this guy. And that day, they brought dirt and worms like these, like, you know, like the pudding with the Oreo cookies or whatever. And it was great. And so that's what the Kansas dirt, I, we call it Kansas dirt

growing up. And so that's where the dirt joke is going to come in. But, um, but then I was like, so tell me more about this guy. Like, what's his name? They, she's like, they call him Mr. Manny. And I was like, okay, Mr. Manny's fun. Like, I was like, what does he look like? And do you remember exactly? Did she say slick back, slick back, long hair, slick back hair and a ponytail. And I was like, I said, Mr. Manny sounds more like Mr. Petty. And no one else really caught it. I was like, Brad, that was amazing. I know it's pedophile, but still.

Still with Manny Petty. I was like, this guy is giving treats to kids once a month at a school. His name is Mr. Manny. That's one of those things. It's like, that's a joke that you would think, oh, made up that joke that's a lot it's like no this is happening 100 percent happens happening at rostow middle school mr manny just comes in you know 50 year old man with long slick back ponytail and gives kids treats and the kids love them call some dirt and worms for you you get dirt dirt. You get worms.

Yeah. Anyway, I forgot about that. So yeah, instantly I was like, dude, you got to use that for something. I don't know. I'm going to write that in there.

Um, I think I'm going to try to tie that into the joke or not even like, I'm going to try to figure out specific jokes, but tell the story about how I lost in the spelling bee by saying longitude with the beginning. So talk about some different things within school. Because everyone goes to school, right? I think so. Farmers have been to school.

Farmers have been to school. Yeah. Farmer school. So anyway. Cool. Yeah, that's fun about Catherine telling everybody that I'm slow. It's like, that guy? That guy lost in a race to somebody?

No way. It was a small group of people. So don worry don't worry was it when you guys were outside no this is uh inside there was about 45 minutes last night where i didn't know where any of my friends were i didn't know there was like an outside hangout i just hung out with like emily duckworth i've been getting katherine else i don't know where everybody is but it was fun i laughed a lot last time it's because yeah all the husbands and boyfriends went downstairs because they they hired a bartender at this party, which was great. It's pretty funny.

And we went to go get another drink. And then after we got the drink, we were just like, let's go out to this patio. That looks way nicer than... Because we were screaming. Did you feel like you were screaming? It was so loud. What was so loud about it?

Was there just that many people? I don't feel like the music was that loud, was it? But I've talked about this before. I don't like this at house parties, my unpopular opinion. Music raises the minimum talking level. So now everyone has to talk a little louder. You get more people in there, and now it's getting even louder. Do you feel like if there was no music, you would notice?

Hmm. Yeah, maybe. What about this? You turn on the subwoofer, but nothing else. And so you feel like there's music in the background, but really it's just like We should try this out. Whenever I do like a housewarming party. Yeah.

Woofer only. Woofer, woofers only. Woofers only. Hey, you know the rules in this house, woofers only. Hey, you know the rules, woofers only. You know the rules. Don't go on the woo this house. Woofers only. Hey, you know the rules. Woofers only. You know the rules. Don't go on the wolf. Subwoofers only.

You don't go up on there, but you play only there. Yeah, because you walk in, that's all you hear anyway. It's just like the... You know what I mean? That's all you hear. It is. You don't know know what you can tell the song sometimes by that but but yeah not really but it was fun yeah the bartender was like everyone had funny comments i didn't get any drinks i didn't oh yeah okay everyone was just like you don't know if she

does this often she's a cpa for a living she is because she said she could do our taxes as well really yeah that came up gunner somehow knew or something like, so he made that joke. I was like, that's a weird joke to make. And she's like, no, I am a CPA, so I can do tech. Oh, good joke. Um, it was one of those things where it's like, it felt like it was so loud down there that I was screaming and I have, I already have like a hard time hearing in crowds anyway. So I probably talk even louder than I need to.

Um, but I think she heard something I said, which I genuinely don't know. I don't think I said anything to like, even like jokingly bad about her but i went and ordered my drink and she was making it and then like she like looked at me like with a side eye and kind of smirked and then pulled out the whiskey and poured like like it was probably like three quarters the way full like the drink was with this mixed drink just filled up like to the brim with whiskey at that point and i was like what was that she's like i heard you talking about me and i was like i don't know anything i didn't say a thing and so the drink just tasted like garbage like because it was like this is not mixed well anymore this is just whiskey with some cinnamon stuff on there it's what okay because

everyone was telling me they're like don't it's not even worth getting a drink like it is so strong it was so so that was her thing but this sounds like you were extra special i heard what you were saying about no yeah exactly the first one was strong and so i was like i don't even know if i should get a second one or not but i did and then i mean like it was it was like she just like was looking at me like i was like what did i say did i say that they weren't strong enough or something i don't know um it was cool to have one though, I guess. To have a bartender in the basement. Yeah. It was kind of funny.

It's also funny too. Like, you know, Google maps. I like hit the button work at 9 30 PM on a Saturday night. Like take me to work. Yeah. It's time. Yeah. Catherine, as we were driving there, she's like, does it feel like you're going to work

right now? And I was like, I mean, no, like, I mean, it's at night. I'm, I'm with you. Dress really nice feel like you're going to work right now and i was like i mean no like i mean it's at night i'm i'm with you dressed and i'm going to a party i was like it feels like i'm going to trace house yeah but it was yeah it was fun derrick was there with his wife which was fun to hang out i know i didn't get to talk to them very much i felt bad yeah because i saw them right when like some people asked they're like we want to go on a tour and i was like i feel like i could probably give you that give me that tour I know this place pretty well and I saw them I was like I'll give them a tour I'll come right back down and then I they were not in the same place oh yeah I didn't see him again it's one of those things where it's like

going to a party like that is fine to talk to people you already know it's really hard to get to know somebody yeah it's like do you like your job okay what do you do for them again really oh managerial okay and in college i took financial accounting yeah exactly yeah okay yeah wait what like i have to like i have to be oh i thought you're saying morgan that's oh megan oh all right right okay sorry sorry start over start over and then you say like they'll say something to you but they'll be looking at you because it's like directional hearing. And then you're like, like Becca was her name,

like was talking to me. And every once in a while, she'd kind of make a joke about Derek or something, but Derek didn't hear it. Like looking over at Derek, and he's like, what would you say? Oh, gosh. I mean, it was great.

It was fun to meet them and hang out with them. And Derek, I love Derek, man. I love Derek. That's been one of the highlights of jean shorts for me is getting to have a new friend. And when we go on the road, you and Derek get quality time together. Yeah,

Nacho basket? Yeah. Tell me about that. Just Rotel. It's awesome. Really? Just on chips? Nachos. To the side, please. Okay. I didn't know if it was like you got green onions and taters on there or anything no pretty vanilla okay good cheese though anyway uh so go up to order and i would consider it extremely normal as far as interactions go okay like i i guess i might have been somewhat on the friendly side of just like hey how's it going

good what can i get for you and then i order yeah so i order and i'm not doing anything crazy just get to the point i'll take a sweet tea please you know yada yada and uh he's like ringing it up and he goes man you guys are good customers i wish i i wish every customer could be like you guys i was like oh yeah no problem because of what you said i don't know i was just being very normal and he goes just glad you guys aren't veterans who ask for discounts that we can't give. Do you know what it's like? Yeah, those freaking veterans

serving our country. I did not know. We were both like, how do we say something that doesn't offend either party? Like, how do I, I just immediately put in a position to toe the line and walk the fence here.

My grandpa was always like that after he got back from Vietnam. Yeah. Once Charlie wasn't surrounding him, he was down to pay full price. Golly. And either of us could have been veterans. It wasn't like I was wearing a shirt

that said I've never served. I don't know if it was obvious. No, he knew he knew that there's no way these people are better he knew my feet were soft and they would hurt running on the road those pebbles would hurt he hasn't stormed the beaches of normandy and those things he could tell but it was such a strange thing i mean like such a hot way to come in like and i had done nothing to like earn his his his trust or anything. All you said was how you doing? That's the only thing I can think of.

It was like somewhat out of the ordinary, maybe, but even then that's pretty normal. I feel like a kid city, like, Hey, how's it going? Sure.

Good. How are you? Good. Absolutely. I'll take the nacho basket, man. I wish every customer could be like, you guys,

those veterans, those veterans who want a discount. Like how often does that happen? So we looked it up afterwards. We were like, McAllister's Deli veterans discount. Like, is know and it's like yeah at all times they offer 10 and i think on wednesdays they do something else but it's like so they do a discount yeah so what's wrong with asking for one if you get one i think maybe they wanted more than 10 and they were

giving them some trouble okay we'd been in line for a long time though. So it was definitely no one like that recent, like this was like months ago. It was still with him. Yeah. He had PTSD from the veterans. That's not where you expect to get it from. I've had plenty of people ask about veterans discounts on furniture. Like, and I never have gotten offended by it. I just say, no, we don't do that. I have no discount structure at all. Unless you're my mom, you don't really get a discount. So you say, no, we don't offer that. But then you're just steaming afterwards, right? Oh man. I can't even survive the rest of my day.

I go to bed at that point. I'm like, that's over. The day's done. Speaking of, I was just about to say like, you were of all people would appreciate someone shooting their shot. So of course you wouldn't be mad at that. Yeah.

And that reminded me, did I tell you this story about a girl after the show oh no i think i talked about this in correct opinions a girl after the denver show like i already met her once in line and she boomerangs back which is always not a good sign like she's in the back of the line and she's coming around for seconds yeah it's never just like it's never just like uh i i forgot one more thing um i just really appreciated that joke like it's never like that like it's like this is gonna be something deeper. Yeah.

And you know, they come around the second time. Next thing you know, they're coming around for sloppy thirds. Right. No, I've never seen that. Nothing wrong with that. But nothing wrong as we learned in Riverside. No, but so she's like, hey, I just, I was trying to walk away and I was like, you know what?

I'm a girl who always shoots her shot. And I go, oh boy. And she's like, it's not with you. Settle down. She's like, is there any way to meet Trey? I was like, I mean,

there are ways, but you would have needed to buy like the VIP ticket. Like the meet greet for me is free. You know, sorry. It wasn't good enough. And you know, she's like,

no, you are. It's fine. I was like, no, but you got to buy the VIP ticket. She's like, but you know,

like no one else is here. Like, do you want to like walk me down there to meet Trey? I was like, no, I can't for like four or five different reasons.'s like what why i'm just like it reminded me of like when uh toby's trying to tell michael why they can't have fire dancers yeah fire breathers at the casino party it's like i mean it's made of paper it's a school night maybe a bunch of boy scouts there hooters is catering do you need me to go on is that is that the first time he says like why are you the way you are i think that is like that time

probably i think season one you already see that he hates toby but that may have been the first like really rude just like what just why do you do this justin we have eight days before this uh airs on our uh podcast can you please put in the clip right now of that? Oh, and another fun thing. We, at the end of the night are going to give the check to an actual group of Boy Scouts, right? Toby, we're going to actually, I didn't think it was appropriate to invite children since it's, uh, you know, there's gambling and alcohol and it's in our dangerous warehouse and it's a school night and, you know know Hooters is catering you know is that enough is that enough should I keep going

why are you the way that you are honestly every time I try to do something fun or exciting you make it not that way I hate so much about the things that you choose to be. Thank you. Thank you. She's like, look, that's fine. I just, you know, I got to shoot my shot.

I have a lot of friends who would appreciate that, but I cannot. I'm not just going to walk you down there. But Trey's not one of them, so sorry. Yeah, but shot or shot. So that's good. That's funny. Have you heard many of his stories from like interactions with people? We sometimes will exchange stories or like he'll be like, so did you ever meet these

people? Because they said they were coming to find you. And I'm like, yep, I already know exactly who you're talking about. So occasionally that happens. But we both agree that 98% of the interactions are very wholesome. And especially when you talk to people who work in this industry, they're like, your fans are so great. They're so wholesome.

And really one of Trey's biggest like takeaways is like, yeah, you know, people paid $99 for a VIP ticket. You know, almost all of them have paid in twos or threes in groups. And right. You've paid money to meet Trey, to hang out with him before or after the show. And people take it so quick. He's like, we can like talk for a second. They're like, hey, you did great tonight.

Just want to get a quick pic. He's like, okay, like what are your guys' names? And they just tell him our names and walk off. And he's like, I'm just shocked that people are that like, they're very self-aware and they're very like conscious. Like, we don't want to take too much of your time. But he's like, I just would have thought I'd have like, Yeah.

Have trouble getting rid of people. But they've been very, very nice for the most part. Yeah, that would be tough. I don't, because I understand, I appreciate those kinds of people. And it's great. It's probably good to err on that side for most people, but then like, it's kind of funny. Cause it's like the people that err on the side of like, let's do it really quickly and get out of here are the people that probably would be more fun to actually talk to. Those are the people you want to. Yeah, exactly. And the people that don't realize that like you want to be done after five minutes, like are the people that probably should try to be done after one minute because it's like exactly it's been five

minutes already you know like uh that's funny yeah you know that was right i mean i think i was talking to him after the oklahoma city zero i still remember uh ryan like middle school kid or whatever i was talking to him his dad was like they were i could have talked to them for hours right they were like so quick like hey just want to chat real quick you know face football guillotine league you know whatever and then they got out of. I was like, they were my, I could have talked to them for hours, but they were like so quick. I'm like, Hey, just want to chat real quick. You know, face football, guillotine league, you know, whatever. And then they got out of there. I was like, dang, that was awesome. Yeah.

Love me wanting more. Good work. That's good for next time. Next time. That's fun. The beeping's back by the way. Oh yeah. It's very bad.

Should we listen and see what it says? It's gone. You think it's your phone? I don't know. And my hotspots on. Oh, okay. Does that matter? I'm like acting like oh you

know what that you know what that means amp like amps often will like pick up that similar sound whenever you got a phone you're it so it's probably not a good sign it's like when you see coke disintegrating like you know rust from a nail yeah that's probably not good that i drank that yeah katherine's like real uh into the whatever you want to call them, the radio frequency kind of like stuff these days. Like she goes on, she goes on kicks. So she's not really this kick anymore, but for like a good week,

she was like unplugging the router every single night. Oh, Catherine, Catherine. And she was like, she was like, I don't want you to use your, you know,

like, cause I would fall asleep with my Bluetooth headphones on. And she's like, I don't like that. I mean, like all those radio. And like, I think she probably has a point. I just, I don't know. I, I'm just not as worried about my body as she probably is, which, which shows, you know?

And I think if we are going to be affected like that, we're all screwed. It's not like just the people who took off their Bluetooth headphones at night. It's like, if this stuff is fair, long-term bad for us, then it's, it's going to be long-term bad for all of us. Yeah. I, I love Catherine and all her kicks right now. Her kick is she's reading this book. I think it's written by like a, is Danish and Dutch the same thing?

Ooh, I had a trivia. I've gotten into trivia crack recently and I had this question today. Trivia crack. That's a good, good game. I have not heard of that in so long. It's a good kick. Trivia crap. Let's bring it back.

Let's do some kind of like go see, uh, like social, you know, fun community trivia crack. And they've made like trivia crack to trivia crack three. Yeah. Not for me. Oh really? I played trivia crack original. What's the difference in them? I don't know. Okay. Um, Oh man, I forgot about that game. That game was the rage for a minute. Oh wow. Uh, what was the question though? I got it right. It was, if you were from, wait, what'd you ask? I said, is there a difference between Danish and Dutch? Answer is yes. I think Dutch is Netherlands. Netherlands, right.

And Danish is whatever my- Denmark. Yes. Oh yeah, I knew that. I answered my own question. You're welcome. Sort of. Anyway, it's either a Danish or a Dutch woman that wrote this book all about like the idea

of it's never like wrong or like a bad excuse to be outside or, huh? Yeah. Sorry. That's not the, basically, basically it's the idea of like trying to spend like a thousand hours a year outside.

Oh, I'd love to track that. Right. Or stat that. That that's never so sick. It's the only time I ever watched commercials at NFL Sunday. Anyone who watches football knows what we're talking about. It's the worst commercials ever. watched commercials on nfl sunday anyone who watches football knows we're talking about that it's the worst commercials ever hashtag stat that harrison compared it to uh

mean girls where it's like fetch is never going to happen like amazon stop trying to get us to hashtag and buy merch that says stat that right that's the dumbest phrase i've ever heard like maybe give them away and i'll use it as a shop you know shirt emergency toilet paper that too um but anyway katherine is yeah she's on this kick now of like like i don't i don't care if it's the winter i don't care if it's 45 degrees like we're going outside we're spending time outside we're going to the park we'll bundle up she's outdoor and she's reading this book yeah i don't know yeah it's just it's the scandinavian type woman that's just like there's never a wrong time to be outside and so that's her new kick

it's i love having kicks oh she's i love having kicks too katherine's on a different level of kicks she can kick her the best of them and i just the baby's i love her and i sometimes the kicks stick like they're sticky kickies other times i i just let her i let her do her thing i'm like great that sounds good yeah i'll i'll i'll take that vitamin i'll put on the wig. Sure. Yeah. Sure. Yeah. All right. Motley Crue kick, huh?

Saw that documentary. Yeah, right. I can't. I'll have to try to think of different kicks sometime. Put them on Patreon. Catherine kicks. Catherine kicks. That's fun.

Okay. Oh, I have some. I went to the KU game yesterday. Oh, that's right. I want to talk about that. They smacked him. Holy cow. Smacked is understatement. Uh, walloped. So, so for anybody, I mean, I don't, I won't get into this too much, but KU played Mizzou yesterday, Missouri, um, for the first time in basketball for the first time in nine years. Oh, talk about stat, that stat hashtag sat that. Um, and about stat that. Hashtag stat that. And it was because Mizzou used to be in their conference and then they went to the SEC because they were cowards.

I'm just kidding. I don't really know why. Money basically is why they went. And so- I can't see that affecting a college- Can you imagine? College sports program. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

But yeah, they used to be huge rivals and they hadn't played in forever. And so they finally got back together and played and it was so much fun. So my dad got season tickets for the first time last year to KU games. And so of course my dad's like, yeah, we got to go. I mean, I'm taking you. And it's like, great. Thank you, dad.

Awesome. Um, so we get there early. My, my dad, it's like, I think going to sports games is one of those things that are so much more fun when you really, really understand the other person that you're going with in the, in the sense of like, my dad loves getting there early. Like, and I like that about him. Like, like, like some people, I think would be like, Whoa, like you, this guy's hurrying, like hustling to get there an hour early. Like, because you know him well enough. You're like, this is what he enjoys. He likes getting there early. He likes like walking around the stadium, like looking at all the different

memorabilia, trying to find people he knows and talking to him. Like yesterday we had a competition, like who's going to be the first person to see somebody they know, but they can't just say that they know him. Like they have to like say their name back. So I saw William Hanna actually, shout out Wild Bill.

And he said, Brad Ellis. And I was like, yes, yes. You know, whatever. I used to play the exact same game. That's so fun. It's like a family tradition of ours like yeah we're going to theater in the park let's see who's like it was like i'll give a dollar to whoever can find it first but um anyway so we got there plenty early it was a good time um let me back up i went to a game with my

dad for my birthday like a month ago and we went and when you have season tickets obviously you have the same seats every single time and the people next and when you have season tickets, obviously you have the same seats every single time. And the people next to us also have season tickets. And, um, and so we, we go to this game and it's a pretty tight squeeze this first time. Um, like imagine like, uh, well, yeah, I'll get, I'll get to it, but it's pretty tight squeeze. And the guys to our left that have season tickets with us, my dad's like becoming friends with him. And he's like, this guy literally told my dad, he's like, next time you come bring someone a little bit lighter. And I was like, thanks dude. Yeah. A little less sloppy. If you know what I mean? Yeah. Someone that doesn't like the nachos quite as much as McAllister's

and someone who could beat his wife in a race. With or without shoes. And so, so it's, it's already a tight, like field house because it's not like individual bleacher seats. It's like, it's like one long bleacher, like just,

you know, elementary lunch. Sure. Yes, exactly. Exactly. So there's just little numbers that you're supposed to sit on. And so we get there yesterday, pretty early, but we're in seats three and four. Okay. So there's

the aisle one and two, five and six. One and two are already taken. Five and six are already taken. One and two, the people that are usually there, the season ticket holders, not the people that told my dad to bring a smaller person, but they they had given their tickets to friends not only were those friends mizzou fans which is just lamb too bad the friends were a man and a woman both pushing bigger than big daddy let's just say that like they were they were large and in charge okay so they were more like one and a half to three seats you know like like they were big and then there's bob and his wife is this guy that you you know, told my dad, bring a smaller guy. Here come the Ellison. In five and six, here comes, here comes Dave and Brad, you know, like whatever. And I mean, and my dad, like, you know, like we

did the thing where we like went past like, um, one and two where we were. There you go straight down. Yeah. We were, we were the row in front of them going past them. And then my dad like got up and my dad's getting old enough where it's kind of struggle for him to even like, you know, get up like to the second row. My dad sits down and I swear, dude,

it's like eight inches of space. And, and so there was five and six were taken by Bob and his wife. But then there was a complete row to the left of him. Scoot over Bobby. Yeah. Like, and I was like, okay, he's not scooting over. And I was like, I'll just sit in the front, the row in front. Cause we were there like 40 minutes early. I'll just sit up here for a little bit. But even as I'm sitting there, like seats were getting taken back, like

left and right around me. And I was like, I don't get up there now and they scoot over. Yeah. I'm done for. And so I promise you, I I'm like, Oh, I'm going to go and get up here now. So I get up there to that row and I say to Bob, I was like, I was like, Oh yeah. Maybe if you can scoot over just a little bit, just a stalwart just doesn't move one bit. What Bob just like, and I I'll be, I'll be fair. I was pretty passive about it. I wasn't like staring him in the face. Like, Hey Bob, can you please scoot over? But still you ask him a question in English and he speaks English and he didn't respond at all. And so then I literally like backed up, like, like imagine it's like a, it like, like at this point I'm like the front domino in a, in a row of like,

you know how like you're like, you do the thing where you like knock over all these dominoes and you have like one domino and then two right here. I'm like very much like overlapping both of them. And here comes the domino just ready to sit down. And I mean, my dad and I are like this, like, like squished in here. And my dad's just, my dad just says out loud, he goes, well, this is going to be a really fun game to be at. And, and my dad and I just start dying laughing. And when my dad like really

laughs hard, he laughs like his whole body. So you're shaking. So I'm touching him like very closely. So I just feel him just like bouncing me up and down, just dying, laughing. Finally, I kind of feel Bob kind of like barely scoot over. And I had a little bit more wiggle room. The saving grace honestly was that our tickets are close enough to the student section where it was like one of those domino effects where some of the students stood up. And so we had to stand up the whole game. That's great. Yeah, it was great for us.

But every time we'd like, it'd be a timeout and we'd sit down. I'd be like, dad, sit down right now. It's like you kind of like establish your room first but um i can't imagine the the pride of of bob like how how can your pride be worth more to you than like yeah not sitting on someone like that's so uncomfortable i don't care who you are no one wants to be touched when you're sitting down yeah my dad was analyzing it i will say my dad i don't know if it's because of his age or because that's just who he is but i think he's starting to get to the point where he doesn't realize how loud he talks okay like he wasn he wasn't talking loud, but when you're talking

about somebody, you know, two feet away from you, like he goes, I think it's actually the wife that doesn't really want to move down. And granted it's a loud place, but like, I'm like, dad, we could, like, I think maybe he could hear a little loud for your comfort. I mean, Bob's also old. Bob's older than my dad. So like Bob's from Hutch. So if anybody's from Hutch, you guys know a guy named Bob Hutchinson. Yep. Um, but yeah, you guys know somebody named Bob.

It was so funny. Like, like my dad's like, I think it's probably the wife. The wife doesn't seem like she wants to move down very much. And maybe, maybe honestly, my dad's smart enough to be like, that'll get like, yeah, like he, maybe he can hear this and strategic. Yeah. But, um, anyway, the dad's smart enough to be like, that'll get him. Yeah, maybe he can hear this and he'll move. Yeah, but anyway, the game itself was amazing. Like, I'm already an emotional person, but I was like moved, like borderline.

I had to like fight back tears like multiple times at the beginning because it's just wonderful to be in a crowd of people that are just so passionate about sports and like doing that again. So, and it's just, Mizzou is just the worst. So that's great.

Hashtag set that. And they won by like 30 some points. Yeah. That's awesome. Yeah. It was really, really fun. So speaking of dads,

should we play? Guess that dad. Yes. That or what'd you say? Guess, guess who's dad. Guess who's dad. Go,

go, go. Guess, guess, guess who's dad. Is who's dad. Yeah. Go, go, go. Guess, guess, guess who's dad is it? Papa Mia. Oh. I don't know.

No, I like it. Keep that in. Yeah. Okay. Stat that. All right. So we're going to rattle off a fun fact about one of our dads. And we'll give you guys a few seconds to decide.

And then we'll tell you the answer. Just a little fun game for you guys to play. Hashtag dad that. Dad that. All on the floor dad that i think that needs to be the uh the the actual song good okay this dad so wait do you think they understand how the game works just kidding so it's a really complicated game so all right guys sit over here girls sit over here um We're going to send one representative, whoever's hair is the longest.

Number one. This dad has learned to sleep in the recliner with his hands over his crotch because the dogs jump on him so often. And then together we say, guess who's dad? That is Steve Triplett. Steve Triplett. and then together we say guess who's dad that is steve triplet steve triplet gosh that's good i don't care who you are steve triplet um all right it's i think at the beginning we also say it's time to play guess who's dad this dad was upset that he spent time with his son once i'm sorry let me read that again this dad was upset that he spent time with his son once he realized that he missed the most

recent episode of survivor who's that dad who's that dad wow so many good jingle songs. So many. All right. Who's that dad? It's Steve Triplett. All right. Three in a row, maybe? I don't know. Guess! Who is that dad? All right. This dad says, who's winning when he walks into a room, even if there's no sports game

on TV? Hey. Hey, man. Who's that dad that dad is dave ellis hey this is dave ellis that's my dad impression yeah that's a fun one actually that's pretty funny he's winning like it became like he used to just say it like you know when there were sports on and then it became like his like tagline. So anytime, like I actually kind of put that on the conservative dad, like when I kind of like woke up from, I was like, who's up, we winning or something like that. But yeah, my dad will just like, he'll, he'll say that when he like wakes up from a cat nap or something like as a joke, like instead of like, what's going on, what's going on? He'll just say, who's winning.

Who's winning? All right. It's time to play. Gas is dead. It is. All right. This dad once had a piano fall out of his truck. Let's go ahead and.

That dad is. David Ellis. David William Ellis.is yeah is he okay yeah that's another like infamous story one time he was moving a piano with my uncle and it's just like classic like you know 30 year old dudes doing stuff together like oh that piano will be fine and i think as they were pulling out onto an intersection just the momentum of it just i mean it's like the infamous story yeah like just the piano not only fell off the truck but like imagine i mean there's 88 keys on a piano it's just each of those things has you know all these parts to it so they said it was just everywhere it got piano everywhere yeah That's funny. Hey! What's up, guys?

How are you doing? Are you ready? It's time for the Black Ghosts of Dad! That's right. That's right. That's right. This dad has a list of his favorite things to see when he opens up his refrigerator. Oh!

Get the ghosts out! Oh, my. oh my oh my turn down the turn on the headphones horse coat ain't got nothing on me uh great answer was dave ellis for that one it's another one my dad's my dad's a quirky guy. He's a big fan of lists. Okay. So for the longest time, my dad would like, anytime we talked about something like, like snickerdoodles, he's like, Oh, snickerdoodles top 10 favorite cookies. And I'd be like, dad, you have 25 top 10 favorite cookies. And so then it was like, that was like his challenge of like, okay, well I'll make lists for everything. I want to find my top 10. And so he has a top 10 favorite things that to find when he opens up the refrigerator. Like pretty awesome.

It's like, it's like he made lists of all the other things are normal. And so he's like, I'm going to figure out other things. He also, this is a, this is an honorary fact for my dad. Cause I think it would be very obvious that it's my dad, but he has been to 80 towns in Kansas. Slept overnight. Slept overnight in 80 towns in Kansas. Yeah.

I was looking at that one. I was like, this one's going to be a lot of this. So yeah, just a little bonus fact. That's just crazy. I was like 80 towns in a small, you know, state that doesn't have that many towns that you're supposed to be able to stay overnight in. And enough to be able to count. Like, I just feel like you would lose track of doing anything over 15 times.

Well, I'm sure he was like, let me go back and like figure all these out. But yeah, he, he's done biking across Kansasansas like as like an organized event like 10 20 years i don't know how many years so that'll do it that'll do it that's sweet oh guys over here over here over here we got a seat we got a table for you we're gonna go ahead and play gas good all right um that was funny okay this dad after the game is over this dad will be putting on reruns of king of queens from the dvr whose dad is it hey man who's dad's that that dad is drum roll please morse code please

that's right i bet your dad also likes King of Queens, though. I don't know. Probably. Yeah, I'm trying to. He's really big into Jimmy Fallon. He thinks that I watch Jimmy Fallon all the time. He's like, did you see Fallon tonight? Seriously, he's like, did you see that thing that Fallon did? Did you see that? You saw that skit that Fallon did. And I was like, no,

never. I feel like Fallon's not going viral like he used to. He used to kind of dominate YouTube for a while. All those different games he would play. Yeah, those things were fun. And then he went into like the mainstream, mainstream. And I feel like he got a little bit less popular. That like musical, whatever game he would play was so fun. Musical Impressions or whatever.

Oh, yeah. That was really entertaining. Yeah. Yeah. The Whisper Challenge and all those. The one where you like lied about or tried to lie about whatever was in the box. Yes, that was so funny. That one's pretty good.

Yes. Yeah. They just get old after a while. Yeah, maybe. I just thought there'd be new games. Hey, whose dad is it over there? Let's find out. This dad still uses a ringtone, and when he he gets a text the sound is a train whistle

just like let me call hello yeah they're about to guess you watch this watch this funny voice that i do i feel pressure no you're crushing i'm enjoying myself uh correct answer is steve triplet big train whistle guy i think it's a dad thing to stop a ringtone that was that was a was that the fact that kind of motivated the whole uh the whole idea for this game uh was the train whistle i think it was that yeah probably that that is the most like we should put that in the conservative dad uh video yeah or like the phone's ringing bad to the bone you know whatever something like that uh yeah because like yeah who knows anybody that still uses like ringtones except for if you're 50 years or older maybe yeah like katherine's

mom has a different ringtone for each of her kids. Oh yeah. And so it's like, Oh, Sam's calling age of empires theme song, right? Sam, Sam's a listener. He knows that's what it is. You know, it's Sam. Um,

so, all right. Oh boy. Oh boy. It's time to guess that dad, dad, that all on the floor. All right.

This dad has gone to the same barber for 30 años. For those of you who don't habla espanol, 30 años is 30 years. Who's gone to the barber, same barber for 30 years? Honestly, this is probably like. I think it's both. Yeah, I was going to say. Is same barber for 30 years. Honestly, this is, this is probably like, I think it's both. Yeah. I was going to say, is it?

I think so. Yeah. This was my, this was my fact for Dave Ellis, but I think, I think, yeah, it doesn't surprise me that Steve's,

I forgot. Steve could have been that same barber the whole time of his life at this point. Yeah. Seriously. All 54 finds a young, young enough barber. Yeah.

I forget what her name is. She had a boy name though for like 16 years i thought it's a woman yeah i thought he was getting a haircut by a man you know billy yeah something like that yeah billy with an ie uh i don't know what it was with the k i'll text him yeah cory with k-o-r-i is a very uh hairdresser name really i think i think that's definitely the best way to spell cory you think so yeah okay but uh i think trey's joke would have said that amber is a hairdresser name because that feels so accurate true yeah it's like that does seem right sorry the embers out there or maybe not yeah you've

always wanted to be a hairdresser hey let's do a couple more. Guess that dad's. This dad regularly gets an Atlas as a present. Oh, what are you guys doing over there? You know, you know, just playing. Guess that dad. Who's that? Is it the dad of this one is Dave Ellis. Dave Ellis. Did you get it right?

Loves himself some Atlases. That's so strange. Yeah. Secondary fact about my dad is that he knows where every single division one college in america is and most of like non division one as well i've seen it a time or two i've seen him i've seen him in action it's like hey yeah where's you know fill in the blank i don't know pepperdine that's not that hard of one but like i know that one where is it malibu california there you go yeah it's like it's like

I thought you just pronounced it wrong. I just had a little trouble. I wasn't going to call you out. I was like, oh, he's in the middle of the thing. Yeah. No faith and fitness group where we were having fun with our workouts and learning to keep Jesus at the center of our routines. But let's say you miss fitness a little bit. You're just not motivated. I'm going to wait. We're prepping for a brand spanking new program

launching the new year, just 20 minutes a day, five days a week. So, uh, okay. That's coming as well. Hey, out there, raise your hand right now. Everyone raise both their hands. With every head bowed and every eye closed, raise both hands. Put your hands down if you have at least 20 minutes a day that's free. I see a lot of hands, Brad. Everyone's hand is down. I see a lot of hands down. Everyone's hand is down because everyone has 20 minutes, five days a week.

It's like on the office. They're both up. They're both up. So anyway, the best thing to do is just check out her Instagram. So you can, uh, I was going to say that. Sorry. I'm so sorry. No, no, no, no. I was going to say that I follow her on Instagram. And like, if you have any doubt, like of the kind of person she is or like the, yeah, the, the motivation that she has, just look at her Instagram. You will be both entertained and motivated by it because she's so funny. It's so like,

yeah, she's like herself on Instagram. She's not too like, you know, over the top fitnessy. I think we're like, this is like intimidating to like want to join this. Um,

so anyway, check her out. Well, link is in description, but it's simply fit page spelled like a woman's name would be a, not like the page of a book. You guys know. Yeah. All right. Now we can play underrated, overrated, underrated, overrated page Instagram.

Yeah, exactly. Simply fit page actually is going to get a shout out in the jingle this, uh, this week. So that works out great. Yeah. Uh, okay. Underrated, overrated Christmas edition. Really? I just have one thing that I really feel confident is very, very overrated. And the rest of them are just like, I just want to figure out other things to put so that we can have a segment. But the thing that I really feel is very overrated, and this is Christmas or elsewhere, is those cookies that people make all the time. Every single season I see these and they put the Hershey kiss in the middle of it. Oh, love them. No, you don't. Love them. Those things are garbage. I love those things. Those things are garbage. They have like the tip of them. How do you don't. Love them. Those things are garbage. I love those things. Those things are garbage.

They have like the tip of them. How do you eat it? You gotta know how to eat it. Tell me. Okay, so you eat it. Do you take the island away first and then go straight for the kiss? Or do you bite right down?

Your descriptions are gonna be way better than what I was gonna. Or do you just bite off the tip of the Hershey? I was gonna compare it to how a turtle eats celery, but I like the way we went like island based because it's oh gosh okay yeah no i i go around the outside m&m style yeah go to detroit this week so um around the outside so yeah because the tip is intimidating you save that for the very end you eat around the volcano your last bite is the magma chamber the vesuvius yeah yeah so you want to want your teeth, your front two teeth to scrape the side of the Hershey's kiss for like your first three bites

around the outside. Now you've just got a little, yeah, magma chamber left. Okay. Pop that baby in. And ideally it's warm. So that's no problem. What if you could have a cookie that has bites of chocolate in every bite and you don't have to worry about nibbling it like a bunny. There's something about just like that pure milk chocolate. No way. Like chocolate chips. It's just, they're kind of scattered. You have good bites.

You have bad bites. These have been out a while. Like, you know, like you see the Hershey's Kiss in the middle. Like they made these for this event. These are fresh. They made these for this event. I feel bad. So I'm going to eat one because these things are not going to get eaten as much as everything

else is going to eat because these things are garbage. Hey, FYI, anyone coming to see me on tour in 2022, give me some homemade Hershey's Kiss magma chamber cookies. I will eat every single one of them. Those things are just like, I can't imagine a way that those are good. Like, like, like I've seen, I've seen people put peppermint kisses in there. Oh, no, thank you. No, thank you.

That's kind of fun. No, nope. Still, still pierces the top of your mouth. Like still just garbage. Like I'll take a Hershey kiss by itself. Nope. Still, still pierces the top of your mouth. Like still just garbage. Like I'll take a Hershey kiss by itself. Sure. Is this the one you were passionate about? Yes. Okay. I'm glad I was passionate too. I love those cookies. Oh my gosh. That's the thing. Like they must either be very easy to make or very favorited by a lot of people because they are always, oh, every season I see these things and every season I'm like, those things aren't very good. Like how have these lasted?

Yes. How has survival of the fittest not taken out the Hershey's Kiss cookie? You see all these trends of like pumpkin and pretzel and all these different things that get like incorporated into recipes. We know what stood the test of time. Is those Hershey Kiss pieces of junk. Yeah. Hershey's Kiss and a snickerdoodle. Yeah. I don't know what those are called. Snickerkiss.

They must be- One of my dad's top 10, you know, favorite cookies. Don't blame them. They must be pretty easy to make. Cause it's like a way to make a unique cookie without trying too hard probably that's what i'm guessing that they are but i mean if they're if you're trying to go for easy to make do some brownies brownies are nice brownies are great they're they're fulfilling anyway i love doing the chief's game today katherine's like not sulking but she's over there in the corner just looking down she's like i should have made

brownies today yeah we ended up it's okay i don't know i didn't count 10 people probably over at our house everybody it was a it was a it was a scene and literally two days ago kathleen's like like we can have people over for the cheese game but i just want to keep it really chill it was chill she's like i just don't want to make anything we have a lot of other stuff going on i was like great and then all of a sudden it was like everyone's like what are you guys doing for the cheese whatever great come over and then she regrets not hosting. She made some brownies. All right.

Overrated, underrated. The fact that one of the Wiseman gifts was myrrh. Overrated, underrated. Who talks about myrrh? Because we know gold. Oh yeah.

Frankincense is making a comeback. Talk about, talk about trends. Frankincense cookies pretty soon. Buy low, sell high. I would have done it a year. Zero AD.

And that's expensive essential oils, I learned. And it sounds like Frankenstein, which is like, I'm familiar with that. I knew that. Yeah. Murr. What, a third of the way to mercury, but spelled different? Fourth of the way is generous. What, to the word mercury?

Yeah. Is that third? That's probably right. Oh, okay. I don't know. Half. Three sevens. What's that?

That's 0.429. That's awesome. 42, okay. I don't know. Half. Three sevens. What's that? That's 0.429. That's awesome. 42.9% of the way there. Yeah. I don't know. That was just a random one. I just like, no one talks about myrrh. What is myrrh?

I don't know. Is it a powder? Is it a liquid? I think it's like a morning routine thing. It's like to like reduce swelling in the morning. And it's like you use like a, like a gua sha or like an eye roller. You thought, let's go back and talk about what gua sha is.

First of all, I was just trying to like show off that I know what a gua sha is. I've never heard that word. Ask your wife. Okay. See what's the kick she's on. Okay. Do you want to know what it really is?

Yes. A fragrant gum resin obtained from certain trees and used, especially in the near East in perfumery medicines and incense. I was pretty close. Ooh. I didn't know it was gummy. The adjective for it, which is very like intuitive, but also awesome. It's called Murray. Oh, this is pretty Murray. It's pretty Murray. It's like perfumey gummy. That smells good. What is that? Kind of a Murray concoction. Yeah, definitely. Some sandalwood sandalwood, some frankincense, maybe a little bit of Murray. Well, you know, it coincides with Jesus's birth. That's why I call it Murray Christmas. Oh, well, I was thinking Murray and Joseph. Well, yeah, that's what people think,

but it's actually, it's, it's, that's where Murray Christmas came from. Okay. And yeah, Bill Murray. Yep. Yeah. I was trying to think, I was like, has he been in a Christmas movie? I can connect to real quick. Well, my dad, my dad yesterday at the, at the basketball game, I was like, I can't really squeeze in here. And he's like, well, what about Bob? And I was like, Bob, what about Bob? I was like, Bob's acting more like a bill. He's pretty Murray these days.

So perfumey. All right. Next. All right. Overrated, underrated. The Carpenters Christmas album. The Carpenters. I don't know what you're talking about.

Exactly. That's because it's underrated. It is the greatest Christmas album of all time. um the carpenter's christmas album the carpenters i don't know what you're talking about exactly that's because it's underrated it is the greatest christmas album of all time the parent you ever you're a karen carpenter uh no what school she go to she went to uh smu which is in dallas texas good job dad yeah she was a coyote um who are you actually talking about so i don't know what's happening she's a she's a musician from 70s 80s okay no clue and her and some of her family members have a carpenter's christmas you you would recognize some she has kids who sing um the carpenter kids okay i have no the preschool i went to was called carpenter's kids actually yeah and my mom taught at it later is that because it was like like for like kids for jesus like the carpenter's kids you would think

woodworkers guild oh just another another sector of the Woodworkers Guild. They had a daycare put in for the guild members. Perfect. Carpenter's kids. No, Karen Carpenter is the warmest voice in all of Christmas lore. Ooh, let's talk warm voices. Amy Grant is up there for me. Idris Elba.

Idris Elba. Okay, what about musicians? Oh, okay. Maybe him. I don't know. Warm music voice i like me some bing john legend has a warm voice does he i don't know i get kind of cold when i listen to him just kidding i don't know no he's got a good one um yeah more like modern day warm voices yeah yeah what do you think about mayor john mayor you think he's got some yeah he his voice is not what you think it would be when you look at him uh no girl it's kind of warm yeah it could be hotter yeah you're right it could be yeah like if he got a little bit of uh like earl grey tea in

there it would it would smooth yeah no karen carpenter man justin put in three seconds of merry christmas darling like right when she starts singing it greeting cards have all been sent greeting cards oh my gosh okay everyone check it out i'm gonna make a spotify playlist for the warmest christmas songs okay so the next time you're cold you're in your car you got it blasted on heat. You got the defrost going, pump up this music and you will warm right up. Give it the carpenter's heat out. Yep.

So, okay. That is underrated apparently. All right. Overrated, underrated, stocking stuffers. Ooh. Just in general. Probably underrated. Yeah.

They're so fun. You like them? Good gifts. Good gifts are in those. Yeah. What, what, like your family, what kind of stocking stuffers you guys use like is it more like legit things or is it more like gag gifts or is it a little bit of both i think just like functional things aren't super serious and when i say functional also just like food just like

things i'm going to consume okay we're talking ghirardelli chocolate specifically caramel caramel yeah those ones are nice okay yeah i've been a good boy when i get those uh maybe uh you know let's see what else would be in there if it's my uncle john some scratch offs okay those would be in there we just got a fun yeah yeah uh you ever get any magazines no i feel like maybe i got a magazine in there growing up in In the stocking. Yeah. Catherine kind of gives my family a hard time because we, like the kids grew up with like these pretty big stockings that were just very stretchy. And so like our stocking stuffers were just like, yeah, I mean, just stacked. And like, if they don't fit in there, my parents just put them out next to them or something. This is a Christmas tradition is me looking at everything

in my stocking, pulling it out and then so unable to put it back in. I'm like, I know all this. How did my mom do this? Right. I mean, for 30 years, I've never been able to get everything back in the stocking. I'm like, you know what? Let's just keep the cologne outside of it. Yeah, you put the cologne in first

because it's going to weigh it down, you know, whatever. Did we try printer, fax machine? Exactly. Yeah, well, my family like kind of start, once my sisters got married, we started doing like, okay, everyone gets one, you know, one stocking stuffer gift per person. You try to guess who got what, you know, whatever. And so it's become more of like a gag gift thing, which is fun, but it's also, it's

also like, did we just waste a bunch of money on, you know, this, you know, tell a novella, you know, novella, you know, like this, this raunchy novel from dollar tree that I'm definitely not going to read as I'm going to bed on Tuesday nights. No, I'm just kidding. Um, so yeah, I think it's, I think they're fun, but I, I, I don't think they're that exciting. Um, I could, I could take it or leave it is what I'm trying to say. Okay. Okay. Last but not least overrated, underrated celebrating Christmas starting on November 1st. Oh, overrated okay chill out i agree i just i yeah i think there's there's something special about like waiting a little bit like if if you celebrate christmas too long then it becomes less less special yeah you stretch out the uh whatever

you want to call it the good times yeah good tidings and i think it's very easy to argue like well okay it's the best holiday why would're not celebrating anymore yeah but there's something about like how exclusive it is same with the music i love christmas music during the season but no other times and compared to other holidays christmas is the only holiday that we celebrate longer than one day also true you know and we're celebrating for a full month so we were like should it be two months and it's like that's kind of a long time for one holiday you know like it's a good point it's already cool that like i was talking to somebody about this last night it was like it's just cool that like in america we've adapted to like hey around christmas time which is a holiday

that not everyone celebrates this is like a specific holiday in a certain belief system we're all going to put up christmas lights though regardless of like even though it's like almost like bad nowadays to have a stance on anything it's like but we will put up christmas lights no matter what we will decorate for christmas true like i liked it as a society we're like we're down with this yeah like city governments will put yeah christmas lights on there yeah christmas lights are awesome even though it's like all inclusive on everything else it's like we're still doing christmas lights of course we're not monsters we're not barbarians so yeah christmas lights underrated okay that was called on top rated underneath rated thank you for playing thank you for playing uh sorry there wasn't a fun song to go along with it we used all of our songs for guess who's dead that was called on top rated underneath rated thank you for playing thank you for playing uh

sorry there wasn't a fun song to go along with it we used all of our songs for guess who's dad that was fun that was also fun you cracked me that's gonna be people's favorite part of this episode i now i gotta name the episode guess that dad because people are gonna want to find that to listen to you and like this is the episode right brad screams um i'm gonna quickly tell the march madness story it's time oh my gosh yeah all right once upon a time i was dating a woman nice thanks and pause for effect nice man like are you jake just making sure you're listening and waiting for the gasp of people listening you're kidding i'm imagining like the imagine dragons gas gasp do that you can't do that too many times.

Yeah. Kind of like that when we filmed the other day. No, it's not good for the throat. Can you tell that story real fast? Yeah, yeah. It was just, I'm so excited to see that video. We haven't really talked about it yet. Maybe we can.

I need to upload some of those clips to Patreon, I think. But yeah, we made a Starbucks husband video. We got the ladies involved. We were all married for a day. Or I guess I was the only one who got married. But it was just really fun. And part of the, there's like a kind of a fun twist at the end of the video no spoilers even it's probably out by the time this comes out but anyway we needed trey brad and myself to all get like a three second loud what and i i just cut it short a couple

times like it needs to be way longer and i was like really that wasn't three seconds poor guy because it really hurt my throat poor guy was been way longer. And I was like, really? That wasn't three seconds. Poor guy. Cause it really hurt my throat. Poor guy was screaming. What? Multiple times. Like three seconds, three seconds. I was like, Oh,

okay. Okay. Okay. What? I think I just got louder. Yeah. I try to just stop you like halfway through. Like he's like,

no, what? No, no longer. Oh man. And then the final one was not even that loud. I was like, all right,

let's go for length here. Not, not you're like what then you do like 10 seconds like all right that was way too long yeah but throat still feels fine it's so i'm so thankful for her to be back yeah seriously i didn't tell anyone really this but last week i had to google white spots on uvula it's like dang it i didn't tell anybody even when i was really sick i never saw white spots on my dingle dangly so that i was like maybe that's maybe that means it's healing no that's good when you see white spots that's normally like oh good yeah yeah that's what i'm trying to tell myself and google tell you about it it said not great drink water yeah it said get those out of there but i don't know whatever happened shout out steroid shot and still just giving it all the glory okay so i was dating a woman we didn't get very far

thank you and uh that sounded like a home improvement remember that oh do i remember that and i am this is our third date it is also important note that we have not kissed yet that might come up later i don't know and um she lived like 30 minutes outside of town but that night she was staying at her sister's house who lived in kansas it's like more convenient i'll go she's like i'll go there get ready you can pick me up from there awesome go finally got to take her on a chick-fil-a tag date you guys know i've like episode you know one of the first 10 i think i talked about that and i'd never done it and this was our third date chick-fil-a tag date you guys know i've like episode you know one of the first 10 i think i talked about that and i'd never done it and this was our third date chick-fil-a tag go get chick-fil-a what that's like like there's like such a stigma to like the third date being like

this like whoa third day is when you get all serious with somebody it's like third day chick-fil-a i've been saving what i've always wanted i've been saving myself i don't get to third dates very often you know and so uh yeah i go pick up chick-fil-a i don't get to third dates very often you know and so uh yeah i go pick up chick-fil-a uh we go to a park have a little picnic then we go to laser tag we go to this place called main event it's basically like a david busters i think a lot of major cities have them but yeah right away we see the sign that says uh welcome to monday night madness and so we're like oh i didn't even know it was it was monday night madness i'm not checking the you know i'm not on the email list and And so it was like, you know, basically like all you can laser tag

like $10. And it was like around March, April time, right? Yeah. I'm pretty sure it was like, it was loosely based off March madness. Like the joke, right? I didn't even really consider that, but yeah, probably. Yeah. I think it was early April, but okay. So it's like really cheap laser tags. Like great. So we laser tagged our hineys off. It was so fun. We played so much laser tag and we had a really fun night. And as we're leaving, she like walks out and it's kind of physical. It's kind of funny, but she's like, she's so happy.

She like claps her hands. Arms go out wide. She goes, ah, March madness. And I'm kind of like awkwardly laughing. I'm like, what? What's that from? Is that from a movie? Is that from Tommy Boy?

Yeah. And she's like, that's like what we just did. It was it was march madness and i was like are you meaning to say monday night madness so there's like this funny joke like oh my gosh i'm an idiot i was like no no i like that anytime something really cool happens you got to give it like that march madness right you know like there's just like this inside joke so um go back uh drop her back off at her sister's house walking her to the front porch and uh you know heart's beaten this is you know every guy knows this like it's time enough laser tag the msg on your breath and you're like it's time yeah kind of like um michael's like traditionally

on the third date i'll i'll do my own version traditionally on the third date is when i kiss yeah does megan kiss on the third date if If she starts kissing me, I'll know for sure. Something light, maybe soup. I love when he says that. I always forget that line. I don't know, maybe something light, maybe soup. So there I am. Yeah, I'm in full soup mode. I'm like, maybe this is my soup snake.

I don't know. And so make it happen. There's a little like awkward small talk beforehand. Go in, fireworks, fireworks ooh la la kiss happens pretty short and sweet solid first kiss i pull out and i'm like march madness and you know so it's kind of funny this kind of like cute inside joke but also like oh that was like the perfect time to use it that's kind of fun right and um i should have said pull away earlier. And so, and I'm going to keep going. So you pulled away and said March Madness.

I said March Madness. And so it's kind of this funny thing. It was like a really just like solid, like, that was great. That was really fun. And a little inside joke, a little humor, memorable. Yeah. Good. Awesome.

Have a good night. See you later. I drive home. I get home and she left like her purse or ID, something that was like still in my car. So she's like, no problem. You just want to like come over tomorrow morning. I'll still be my sister's house and you could drop it off to me there i'm like great go up the next morning and she's well sorry i i remember the first time you told me the story like you said you were like on cloud nine oh of course oh yeah you were pumped you were like i don't know if you said this or

not but i'm imagining you like blaring some music, like pumped, you know, like, and yeah, every guy knows. Yeah. When you're excited about someone and you finally like cross out off the list. I mean, yeah, you're on cloud nine. You're so fired up.

Yeah. You know, you're happy you had the soup because you're chopping around and you're, you're be bopping around back to the car. And so next morning, give her, go to give her a purse back. And when I get there,

she's already on the front porch, which is like kind of weird. And it was like, I thought I might hang out a while while this i'm already getting vibes that like either we're about to have some conversation or she's like all right thank you see ya yeah i was already like this is not what i was expecting dtr so yeah we got to talk remote and she's like uh so i just needed to uh tell you something real quick i was like okay she's like so last night was really great i was like yeah i thought yeah right i thought so she's like well uh one problem she

turns to her left and reveals to me a ring doorbell camera and in that same moment through the speakers i hear her older sister's voice come through the yeah the speaker say march madness and i didn't know that was mortified i died right there on that front porch what i did actually was i went like head on the arm and just like sloppy sloppy into the the siding sloppy siding and i just stayed there for 30 seconds i was like no no no no no no no and i later found out that you know in the moment uh you know her sister her sister's roommate right they're all getting notifications exactly like unusual activity on your front porch somebody's on your front and like oh it's pretty unusual so it goes straight to their phone they've got video proof of this now like they're sending it to save it right yeah they've i learned that they sent it

to other people and i'm like megan you didn't even need to tell me like i would have never known i've been none the wiser just like i don't i'd hear about this you need to hear about this i was like that's fair yeah it's one thing to like yeah say march madness in like the uh you know like the inside joke like the fact but like the fact that you said that and these people were watching they had no idea like why did you say march like what kind of game does this guy have what a weirdo does he say that every time what does that mean yeah yeah can't wait to tell the boys about this march madness can't wait to tell the boys back in march about this oh my goodness

so it was just a bummer um to have that caught on camera and to know that it's in the hands of other people yeah it's being passed around people are like megan's sister's roommate is like in med school or something like that she's like i was having the hardest week not even day not even like hour your evening it was like i was having the hardest week and this cheered me right up thank you you're welcome yeah and so that's the march madness story so that's why i was so freaked out i was like i don't know what i'm like not ready to tell people this and brad's like just comment march madness yeah yeah i was like what how do they know this oh man yeah it was it was on like a youtube live thing that i did it for the patrons like yeah random like wednesday at 10 a.m or something so there's like maybe 50 75 people on this youtube

live and they they somebody asked me tell us something about jake that we don't know and i was like oh man like and it was like shortly after i was like i'm not gonna tell you the story because i don't think it's my story tell but i but I said, just comment March Madness and see what he says. And it got my attention. And right away, like the next day, somebody commented March Madness on, yeah, on YouTube and Jake just texted me. Hey Brad, what's going on here?

Yeah, how'd you feel when you first read that? Do you remember? I was just like, I don't think Brad would have told them, but like, how else would they know? Like to comment this, like this is definitely what they're referencing. But then Brad's like, I'm just messing with you. I just told him to comment that. I was like, okay. Oh, then brad's like i'm just messing with i just told the comment i was like okay oh did i yeah did i

originally say like yeah i told them like no no you told me like i just told him to comment that and i was like all right so anyway that's the story uh on patreon is megan and i sitting down together to tell that story with well somewhat with the video footage i will never let that get out so you don't get to see the video footage of it happening, but you see me for the first time watching it back because I obviously never wanted to see it. But for the patrons, Megan has it on her phone. And so she.

You watch them watch it. She. Yeah, you guys watch us react to it. And it's it's really not great. It's and yeah, it's fun. I it's kind of interesting. I hadn't talked to megan in like four months and i'm like hey you want to get together on camera and make cool videos you might uh what do you mean

uh oh yeah but anyway it was great we told that story people liked it so much that we told a different story on patreon i think that's even two parts so there's multiple videos if you you this sounds like something you'd like to hear more about there's more stuff on there so anyway that's story um and i think that's pretty much all i have to talk about we've already been going for like an hour 25 brad so good for us we're good we're good do you want to do like a voice memo or two and then yeah let's do as many voice memos as you feel led i just been feeling led you know do some voice good good good good let me try to find me oh hold on hold on guys hold on here we go here we go here we go you guys double knot your shoes i've started every once in a while doing it dang it's nice it's not playing out of the all right

i keep going brad let's see that's about all i just had the double knot thing i had shout outs but that was for a while back you guys uh. Caleb Lee had a birthday like a month ago. I meant to say happy birthday, Caleb, but I didn't. But Caleb's a great fan of ours. Yeah, I met him in Nashville. Came with his mom. Nice guy. He's one of those guys that's been around for a long time.

He's been a strong fan for a long time. You guys double knot your shoes? All right, here we go. Hey, Jake and Brad. Finally figured out how these voice memos work. Apparently, it's not really tricky at all. You just got to click a link and read. So yeah,

I just want to say that I enjoy listening to you guys podcast and it sounds like Jake has a pretty good memory. It seems like he can remember details pretty well. So that made me think it'd be interesting to know what your first memories are. It could be whatever you want it to be. seem to know what your first memories are. Could be whatever you want it to be. And

yeah, real excited to see Jake and Trey perform in Minneapolis in December. Hopefully I am able to meet you, but if not, a huge fan. And keep on being great.

All right. Take care. Bye. Thank you, Andrea. Andrea. I liked it. She said our memories can be whatever we want. I like that. So whatever you want,

your first memory, but just whatever you want. Honestly, it doesn't even have to be a memory. Just tell me, just tell a story. That's cool. You're coming to Minneapolis show.

That's happening tomorrow when we're recording this, but a week ago when you're hearing this first memory. Also, Brad, I'm pretty sure has a better memory than me, but thank you for thinking that I'm very detail oriented when it comes to memories. Thanks. I feel like I do too. I don't know if I have a better memory than you, but I, I kind of pride myself on my memory, which gets you in a lot of marital arguments that you don't need to get in because then Catherine's like, I am positive.

And I'm like, I am positive. What, where do you go from there? How do we settle this? I don't have my phone, so I can't Google it. Um, My first memory. Do you have one? I think we talked about on the podcast before, but yeah, I remember mine. Okay. It's very random. I think I was four years old, three years old. I was at my sister's like, she was, she did like, she threw discus back in the day, I think. And I was at like, like in this field, like watching her. And I remember like taking my mom's purse and like bucking up and down and saying i was a rhinoceros okay that's my first memory not bad yep cool animal start with trail yeah so rare valuable tusks yeah just i mean i'm impressed that i knew how to say rhinoceros

first sentence too first memory the first time you talk i'm a rhinoceros she's talking holy he's doing it he's doing it did he say mama or dada dave he's like well first time you talked. I'm a rhinoceros. She's talking. He's doing it. He's doing it. Did he say mama or dada? Dave? He's like, well, who's winning? He said, I'm a rhinoceros. So I don't know.

I think he's talking about you, dad. Yeah. My first memory from what I can remember, which is how it works, is I believe my three-year-old birthday party. It was very primary color theme. It was so vivid that I think that's why. Oh, sure. It was a train themed and the tread was like deep blue

bright red bright yellow okay and i had a cake that was like the same design of train and then also i was surprised like they painted my wall to also have the it was the same design as this train like an entire wall was this they painted it like permanently i'm pretty sure wow yeah good for the red blue and yellow train. Like it was just like a really vivid day. I was like, my cake is this train. Now my wall is this train. Wow.

I think I'm a train. Do you think when we go to heaven, we'll be able to look back at like when we're three years old? Like I would like to do it. No, you're not two years old, but three years old. I'll be honest, Brad. I don't know a lot of specifics about heaven. I don't either.

Um, I didn't talk to a guy. I would, I would just really like to, I don't know that there's going to be a guy i would i would just really like to i don't know that there's gonna i would like to have full all access to everything right i want to go back to specific days of my life right i'd like to see future access of people still living yeah i want the full filing cabinet it's probably gonna seem so insignificant when we're there but right now i just think it'd be so fun to be like what was i like as a as a one-year-old was i just like bo yeah you know or was i you know whatever My mom said I was an easy baby. Was I?

You know, or she just has selective memory. She just meant to say, yeah, you really love the easy bag. Oh. I was an easy baby. Yeah, thank you. Thank you, mom. Oh, awesome. And thank you, Andrea.

Next up is Kayla. Hey, Jake and Brad. Hi. This is Kayla from Seattle. I'm a big fan of the pod. Jake, I don't know if you remember, but I'm the girl that got that video that that girl asked to record with you yes uh my friend eden asked was that your show and asked you

to make a video for me and i thought it literally made my life so thank you so much for doing that oh wow real nice of you anyway uh i work at a chick-fil-A here in Seattle, and sometimes it gets a little boring asking the same questions over and over again to every customer. So I was wondering if you guys had any ideas of questions I could ask to make the shift a little more interesting. Sometimes chicken just doesn't do it. So what do you guys think? What are some good questions I could ask? Wow, we're going to Chick-fil-A in Seattle. It's like behind enemy lines. You know enemy's the wrong word i'm just joking

uh first of all i do remember seeing sending you that video there was like a big line of ghosts he's waiting to meet me and this one girl was like can you make a video for my friend so i really had to perform it was like this isn't just for kayla this is like these other 12 people to also see like can he pull this off yeah but they laughed so i think it worked um questions you can ask people that's a fun prompt i think i think you have to make sure that it's uh quick answers though it can't be like it was me jacob it's because i got a new computer yeah yeah what what are you just never done a podcast before what is this like 137 episodes you still do stuff like that oh just turn it off jake you're so popular loser loser i'm going into preferences now how do i turn this up i'll play sound effects yep it

What's your favorite Christmas movie that's a seasonal one that's good but it doesn't have to be uh depends on who you are I celebrate for you know basically post Thanksgiving but other people might want to answer later hey my name is Kayla I'll be taking care of you today how closely do you follow the washing instructions unlike your clothes do you do exactly what they say where's the farthest you've ever traveled that's a quick answer domestically though i don't want some answer that's got to take a while to explain oh oh it's just quick answer you know spain right uh right um there's some yeah that also reminds me what would you bring to potluck dinner sugar bacon i don't know sugar bacon this woman at my church growing up had this amazing bacon.

And it was like only at potluck. It was like, you got to get Chris Belden's bacon before it runs out. Well, sure. Yeah. It reminds me, when you ever go to Smoothie King, when they get it with your order, they say, and if you'd like to direct your attention to the screen, it's going to ask you a question. Ask you a few questions. Yeah.

And I like the idea of it not asking you to tip or to sign. It's just like, what's going on, man? Yeah. So. Yeah. Yeah. Fried chicken or grilled yeah yeah like it's like that even the employee is like i don't know what this is gonna ask you but it's gonna ask you something so just like a magic eight ball like we don't know things out of mind of its own yeah actually i think we've talked about this on the podcast before not that big of it we've at least talked about it at some point hey that's

my bad guys but hey but you never know honestly i i was like we've definitely talked about this i didn't know if it was on the podcast or if our lives are just that funny in real life so now i just started to realize that because i remember the last time we got on the spit i was talking about the it's actually the employee who just wants gratification like do you think the guy who works here is cute oh i think those are the questions he's like i don't know how those get on there i don't know how um anyway let's do our reviews of the week. Okay. And now it's only been two days since Brad and I have last recorded. So not a lot has gone down, but this is great.

How much, like how great this episode has been. You know, nothing has even happened to our lives, basically. It's only been two days, but. I just saw the title of this one and it made me laugh. Go for it. So it's these guys really raised the rough and man. So we that we put that in the like that audio in at the very end of our uh episode last week good job justin and i listened to it and i laughed so hard again i had to just the audio dude like just anytime like i think we've talked about

already but anytime jake fails at all it's so funny to me because he never fails like jake just does everything so well that's like anytime a type of, he struggles with anything. It makes me laugh so hard. Um, so these guys really raised the rough from me, Buck, Meg, Buck, probably range from Megan. Um, this podcast changed my daily routine and truly haven't listened to the radio in months. I started my first podcast with correct opinions when my daughter was a newborn and I couldn't go many places due to the pandemic. I eventually found my way over to ghostrunners and started from episode one back in August. It's now December. And now that I'm officially caught up, I truly don't know what I'm going to do with my own thoughts while I prep meals, drive around town to get my daughter to sleep and complete mundane

chores. You guys have truly lifted my spirits during my transition to motherhood. And I sincerely appreciate the clean comedy with faith-based interjections. You two not only make me laugh, but I'm happy to say that my one-year-old bobs her head every time the Ghost Runners podcast beat drops and she both claps and laughs along with you two on a daily basis. That's sweet. I want to get Bo, once Bo starts talking, I want to put him, maybe like the first song or the last song,

have him say Ghost Runners podcast. Oh. Like he'll be like, he's he's like he does this thing he's like oh do do like like if you're like bowie come here bring the ball like he kind of talks like do do do anyway so i'd be like ghost was poker um that's fun needless to say this duo is not bad my husband never has to ask who have i got here because he already knows your voices are uh emanating that's fun emanating from my phone when he walks through the door while i'm making dinner in the evening

i love y'all and i'm happy i'm so happy to watch your growth and where god will take you bye bye this is a five star review by the way it was five yeah thank you meg buck meg buck mine is very similar it says this podcast is amazing reckon it's the best pod I've ever listened to. So funny. Why say more words when less words do trick? When less words do trick. That was from Willie08. Thank you, Willie08.

Yeah. I really liked it. Wiley style. All right. Okay. Okay. Brad, would you like to end this episode with a jingle? Let's end it with a jingle from Aubrey Magoon
