And I said, Jake, give me a random letter. He said the letter F. So I thought of the first adjective I could think of with the letter F. It is finicky fun facts.

Finicky fun facts. So I Googled that and it was weird facts about picky eaters that will totally surprise you. Okay. Let's see. How perfect is this, Jacob? Let's see if they surprise me. Jake is our token PE. So fun fact number one, super tasters exist, Jake.

Super tasters? There are such things as super tasters, a term first used by Yale University's Linda Bartuschek. Okay. Super tasters taste everything more strongly than the average person, which isn't a good thing. Is that you? You just have like such strong.

Oh. Like I'm a super, like, hey, I wouldn't hate, you know, this, this thing that you're giving me, but I'm a super taster. So it sounds, Oh, I mean, you know, like girls are reading this being like, how can I make this an annoying part of my personality? Like, Ooh, is there any way you could take off the maple drizzle? I am a super taster i'm a super taster so i'll just figure out where that is i mean you you put persimmon in this thing and i can tell is there okay i i do enjoy the matcha but is there green dye number six in this i i'm a bit of a super taster i hate i hate to be a bother but is there any chance that you use glade plugins whenever you bake these brownies

like whatever kitchen this is in has a Glade plugin, doesn't it? Because I could tell. I could tell there's some clean linen in this. Come along, let's have some fun and go ahead, get on your feet, because it's the Ghost Ruffles Podcast. Every morning, morning, we're taking back the Ghost Ruffles Podcast. Ghost Ruffles Podcast. And we're back again. Episode 155. Ho!

Ho! Which mathematically, does that mean next week is year three? Year three doesn't seem right didn't we start this well i guess it has to be right forget when we started it it has to be right it has to be three years three years yeah so cool does it feel like we started it yeah we did start it kind of in the summer so i remember we were playing a lot of pickup basketball and then we would go to mcdonald's afterwards and be like hey we start a podcast yeah yeah i was driving by that one that mcdonald's recently i pointed out to rachel so you see that mcdonald's over there i was like that is kind of what led to brad and i started the podcast yeah 95th and metcalf for anybody that wants to know yeah i was like we would uh sit around after basketball games and talk and then we were like i think this is

entertaining i don't know i think this is decent yeah and uh and now here we are um brad what you've been up to this week um or should i say what do you went up to the last 12 days yeah it's really recorded forever and i have so much stuff can i can i go back i'll tell you all about my week jake i'm sure i'm sure i will um we were talking about picky eaters just then uh did you see trey's uh close friend story last night dude i literally screen recorded it because i need to talk about it i need to talk let's expose trey to everybody real quick dude yes i it was the first thing i did this morning and i i needed to talk to you about this because i talked to katherine and she had not given me the reaction that i wanted to elicit

that's so funny i didn't even think about talking to you about it i was like oh my gosh on correct opinions i'm going to roast this guy yes i couldn't believe it okay so so i stayed abroad in spain for six months like i'm cultured i i am i ate plenty of good stuff so trey's in italy right now and posted like they went to some fancy dinner and the things that he posted on here man like just looked it was amazing it was just like garbage after garbage after garbage baby threw up here oh baby made an oopsie here yeah a little bit of both here a little mixture this is an old diaper we found oh my gosh dude it was and i guarantee you like the smaller the portions the

more expensive they are i guarantee you those things are like 50 bucks a plate like each one of those things it was like a michelin restaurant so who knows how expensive this was uh but yeah this stuff i mean, like so everything I'm about to say, imagine it being like the size of a silver dollar or so, you know, definitely fits in your hand. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm thinking, yes, silver dollar or maybe let's say like a slightly like a three fourth size of a cupcake. OK, three fourths like that surface area. OK, not quite a real cupcake size, but not a mini cupcake, okay? Okay. Don't get crazy.

First slide. I love that these words, just it gets progressively grosser as the words go. It's amazing, like, yeah, go ahead. So it starts off with, well, the first thing you see is like yellow cream with like green diarrhea in the middle of it. That one is the worst looking one out of all of them.

Okay. So the first word is barbecue. Oh, barbecue, oh. We're from Kansas the first word is barbecue. Oh, barbecue. Oh. We're from Kansas City. We love barbecue. I love barbecue. Like what are we talking about?

Probably like burn-ins or like pulled pork maybe? Next word is asparagus. It's like, oh. Okay, well. I've had good asparagus though. I like asparagus. Yeah. I had some broccolini today, Brad.

How about that? Broccolini. I don't know what that changes. I had to ask Rachel what it was, but it's just broccoli with really long stems. Well, that sounds like a broccoli. Okay okay i was trying to think of something funny couldn't get it we'll get back broccolini kind of sound like brocco mini like mini broccoli but it's the opposite sounds like veggie tails so barbecue asparagus next word is oyster. Nope. Uh oh. Down. Out. Down. Down and out. Aphrodisiac.

I don't care. Fourth word. This is all one item. Fourth word. Barbecue asparagus. Oyster. Seaweed. Yeah.

We got one more word. Mayo. Oh. That's just one dish. That's just like one of nine that was served. Oh, I couldn't believe it. I mean, give us a few more. Okay.

Okay. that was served oh i couldn't believe it i mean give us a few more like okay okay i mean like there was one that was like radish radish something or there was another one that's like so this one just looks like fermented fish egg oil something like that this looks like when my dad would come home from mowing the lawn and he would take his shoes off and he would kind of hit him together before he went in the house. Yeah. And some like grass fell down. Get the clods off. Yeah. Yeah.

So this looks like clods of grass. And the title is sea salad atop oysters, mussels and lemon. No, no, no, no. This is a word I've never heard of. And it comes with carrot sauce, monkfish. Monkfish. If I had to just... Oh, yeah.

Sorry. This is the one that looks like... I don't know what... Just... Don't. Yeah. I mean, let's just say it's low-hanging fruit. Let's just put it that way.

And it swings low. Yeah. It's a little bit lower in the summertime. No, there's one on there. Okay, okay. This is the one you're talking about. Pigeon legs? Oh. I'll let you read this one. This is the one you're talking about. Pigeon legs? Oh, I'll let you read this one.

This is the one that looks just the worst to me. Oh my gosh. Well, yeah. First of all, pigeon legs. I don't know about pigeon legs, but read that one. Just pickled cabbage, caviar, and smoked bone marrow. Gag me. Smoked bone marrow.

Gag me. You can't. Like, just get some pizza it's it's italy get some spaghetti spaghetti chicken and parmesan oh i don't even think i noticed this because it's pasta so i was like oh pasta i recognize pasta but then you read it pasta with one year fermenting local fish sauce and Indian spice. Yeah. And the, so I showed these to Catherine. I saw him last night, showed him to Catherine this morning. Like Catherine, we got to talk about these things together.

And every single one of them, Catherine's like, no, I can see how that's good. No, no, no. Like we, like, she's like, we use fish egg sauce in some of our recipes. And I was like, okay, fine. You're not making this as fun as Jake's gonna make later. Okay, okay, okay.

What about pigeon with radicchio? I was like, and she's like, she's like, pigeon is probably like duck. I'm like, pigeons are disgusting. Pigeons are nasty. They just hang out around parks and stuff. Catherine just sees the bright side of everyone else. Which is not her at all. That's my personality.

Pigeon, I was probably like duck. I'm like, no. Ducks are way like cuter and stuff. You see a duck in the park, you're like, look at that cute duck. I bet they have, you know, a bunch of family. You see pigeons in the the park you're like look at that cute duck i bet they have you know a bunch of family you see pigeons in the park you're like that reminds me of that nasty lady that's homeless and home alone like give me a break i enjoyed the very last slide it just looks like he just got done eating a brownie and he goes i don't know chocolate

that's funny i don't know chocolate oh man so that's so funny that was literally the first thing i saw this morning and i forgot about it i'm so glad you brought it up yeah because he hasn't posted very much on his close friends and so i was kind of excited when i see what we're working on cool oh cool and there he is so that's our roasting our boss uh segment of the podcast um we had a fun time without him this week yes the girls channel launched on tuesday this past week uh thank you guys for all girls gone mild is what it's called yeah girls gone mild thank you guys for all the great comments and just support you guys are awesome and um i think the girls are only going to get better and more and more comfortable and

you know it's going to be awesome it's going to be zoppity it's going to be zoppity and do you want to share what you and Morgan might have planned coming up? Um, yeah, sure. Uh, yeah, we are thinking so. So Morgan is the brunette of the girls gone mild, uh, duo. And she is a former chief cheerleader, former chiefs, captain, co-captain, co-captain, co-captain of the cheerleading squad, not of the football team. She was out there for one coin toss but she did very well um and anyway i we're just trying to like figure out how to like just naturally hone in their own skills like

don't don't try to like make you know feel it fit a square peg in the wrong round round and monkfish in the monkfish hole um because i think i was talking about this a week or two ago i was like i've been meaning to text morgan and lindsey to i was like try to find characters based on your own personality that's right yeah and so you had an idea of like every dance audition or every yeah i was like i'm sure there's like every person at dance auditions its own culture its own ecosystem within dance auditions morgan just tell us what happens and then the idea i think this was your idea too maybe i don't know maybe i don't remember how it all happened but like you're like what if what if you and what if brad was there at the dance competition and then you said something about like what if we reenacted the chippendales thing

from snl back in the day with chris farley and patrick swayze and then i was like i was like morgan if we're gonna do this thing we're gonna do it right you need to send me a like dance routine i will learn it and we will like we will do a dance competition together somehow i don't know exactly what i don't know the specifics of what this video is going to be but if we're going to do it we're going to we're going to make it so it's going to be like i want at least 15 comments from ghosties or otherwise being like wow that big guy can low-key actually dance that's all i want i want people to say that swing low sweet monkfish that's right uh so anyway the pigeon legs on him he has short strides

but man those things are nice not going anywhere yeah so anyway so that's coming at you at some point yeah i'm excited for the physical humor aspect of that for sure that'll be so great but yeah uh had fun we filmed right i spent a lot of time together wednesday we was it was a long day we wrote for about three or four hours together. Oh, I got recognized by David. Sweet guy. David. Sweet guy.

Yep. And chatted with him for a long time, which is fun. And then went to Trey's house without him there and shot for Gene Schwartz videos. Productive day. And then from there, we went to the next Baptist Church and shot with the girls. That was really fun. We get done. Brad and I say bye for about an hour and a half. girls. That was really fun. We get done.

Brad and I say bye for about an hour and a half. And then we meet back up at Topgolf. And well, we went to Walmart after we went to LBC. Oh, filmed at Walmart, too. That's right. That's right. That was really fun. I I wonder if the outro is funny.

It's let's see. Should I just play it? I remember the outro being funny in the moment. So we just saw the whole thing on my phone. So Derek didn't come with us because it's, you know, you're're probably gonna get kicked out of a place if you bring an actual camera in but you can like film on your phone really discreetly Derek's huge camera with this huge mic and so it's just me and Brad I forgot yeah we did that and then we eventually said bye I said we'll talk about Topgolf later but yeah we got done with the video and I was like all right let's just film an outro and I don't remember what we said but I remember being funny

we'll put it on the hey Justin Justin hey Justin hey guys I hope you enjoyed the video it's starting to rain real hard uh a lot of fun walking around Walmart filming Brad uh I didn't get the shot but he asked an actual woman with a dog

in there if it was fixed and I was too embarrassed to record it but it did happen uh and i saw it so hope you guys enjoyed the video subscribe if you haven't if you are subscribed appreciate the support thank you thank you guys that's what it was the dog fix that's that was great so the video is wall street versus walmart great idea brad uh so yeah just i mean city versus country style video where it's like, but it's like more puns on finance stuff kind of.

So I was guess which one I was guys. I was the Walmart guy. And yeah, there was, there was a joke in there. Something about like, is that, is that price fixed or something like that? Price fix. I love that dogs. It fixed. And yeah, there was, as we were walking out, there was this woman or tiny little dog.

And I think you started recording. I did record you you and then the way you looked up you derricked me dude you stopped if you were falling for worse i would have got it exactly but yeah i i thought the moment was over i put the phone down and then brad proceeds to ask this woman if her dog is fixed yeah it's pretty awkward to do stuff like like i also went and talked to the um oh the cafe like cafeteria kind of worker but that guy was kind of awkward enough where it was like i don't think he realizes like i was trying to be somewhat normal but you were also like in the corner like filming me and i was like i don't want to mess with this guy too much because he's like not getting it at all that i'm messing with him but correct because he was i was like you guys have corn dogs here you guys he's like yeah we have everything they're pretty good you know trying

to be a salesman for us i was like oh man anyway um but yeah it was fun times but yeah and then we went to top golf which is so fun yeah i told katherine i was like that was so much fun guys brad something happened like something out of space jam happened where he took somebody else's powers and he started to put it all together you were hitting the ball you're in the golf ball yeah it was really fun i don't know i don't know i don't you at one point you made a joke you're like uh because i was using these clubs that like i don't what's what are the sand wedges the smaller ones what is the sandwich i know like what they are called irons is that like the collective uh you were hitting a sandwich okay but like this and the irons get smaller and smaller and correct the iron

just the clubs in general were short right is that what you're trying to say yes the clubs in general were short and so you guys were making fun of how short they were on you know big bowser and so uh and then you kind of made a joke you're like yeah god forbid you you know bend your knees at all and i thought about it i was like i didn't even i don't even like i don't know anything about golf enough to even think about, like, I should bend my knees. And so I bent my knees and that helped bingo, bingo, bongo. And then you guys taught me a little bit of the physics of golf and how like, cause that helped me. And so I'm glad it helped you too. Cause I was embarrassed. I was embarrassed to even say anything. I was like, guys, I just don't understand how this works. Cause like in baseball, you're not supposed to, you're,

you're basically saying you're supposed to swing down at the like at the ball in golf and in baseball if you do that it hits down on the ground you gotta just swing level at it and yeah yeah and so it just didn't make sense and then i tried that a few times and i was like okay that's how they're doing this thing so yeah it was pretty fun counterintuitive but yeah that was so fun and we'd been there probably an hour and a half and i was like you want to extend time i was like sure another 30 minutes it's like all right you want to say time sure not 30 minutes I'm like Brad are you sure and you were like hey when I'm out I'm out once you know what it's really funny is that Catherine texted me I think after the very last time we extended and was like hey no matter like in like

the very very kind way she was like no matter how nice or like what I say tomorrow please stay in like please stay at home she's like it's been a really hard night or something like that. So I was like, OK, guys, we're living it up tonight because I got to go home and tend to my children and my wife, because the night before that, we were also out playing basketball. Culver's. And then we went to Culver's. Yeah. So living it up two nights in a row.

And then she was like, please don't do this to me again. Living it up. Basketball was really fun. One of the first things that happened before the game even started is rustin goes dude i gotta talk to you about something he's like so i don't think he listens to the podcast but brie does and so brie fills him in and so last week i was kind of not necessarily hating but very sarcastically speaking about a restaurant called jumping catfish oh yeah i'll hate on it yeah it just looks like it's one of those every town probably has a business where you're just like how are you still functioning i mean

it's jumping not jumping it's jumping with a possibly and like we're in a pretty nice suburb like it's just not like yeah that's a restaurant you'd see in like bolivar missouri maybe you're like the locals support it 50 and older supports it right right so i don't know how there's like there's like a neon catfish that like moves on the sign like it's like different parts of the catfish are lit up as night goes on and anyway so i was just kind of being like it's gonna be hilarious whenever me and rachel and abby and harrison do a double date at jumping catfish all this stuff and russon's like yeah dude i gotta talk to you um so at brie and i's wedding we actually catered jumping catfish he's like not the whole wedding

uh rehearsal hush puppies hush puppies yeah yeah yeah yeah he's like dude yeah so many hush puppies there and scott was like behind him like dude their hush puppies are amazing dude don't sleep on hush puppies it's like the most rustin thing ever though like rustin is like you meet him and you just think he's like just a city guy but then you if you didn't know him he's like pretty redneck like he wants he lives out in the country now and like he drives a white truck yep that that's a thing yeah oj white truck redneck you know so they say yeah but anyway that was pretty funny and then also before the game before you got there so cool guy sammy's in town which is really cool guy sammy's just literally just in town like

moved to boston for a job with the boston bruins she's in town for like two weeks hanging out and he's like do i gotta come watch you guys play basketball i was like absolutely he's like, dude, I got to come watch you guys play basketball. I was like, absolutely. He's like, I'll be there next week. I was like, great. Yeah. Um, and he and I are talking beforehand and this guy comes up to me and he's like, Brad Ellis. And I was like, what's up? He's like, dude, I'm a ghosty. I've been listening to you guys forever. Uh, and I was like, no way. Uh, and he's, he's in the intermediate league. And I was like, we're going to play you tonight. Dude, I'll, I'll, I'll, you know, I'll, I'll take your charge. Or, you know, I'll give you your charge. I didn't even think about that. Sweet, dude.

Like, yes. Awesome. That's great. And turns out, I don't know. I think he was on the court next to us. So hopefully we play him sometime. I didn't even think about that. Even if it's set up, I still can't wait to see it.

Dude. Actually, now that it's set up, we could get it on video, which would be even better. Now that it's set up, it might be like even worse. Cause it might be like, he's really coming for me. You know, like, whereas before I might like, you know, get like half of the guy's body. This guy's going to just ram right into me. You know what it's going to be like this. Are you ready for a perfect analogy? I'm ready. Okay, great. Um, so oftentimes it's like drunk driving accidents. The drunk driver is the one least harmed because he's not tense. He's like loose and he's inebriated. And

the people where they tense are the ones that get injured and break bones and yada, yada. So which one I'm the, you were going to be the sober man okay you're gonna be like gearing up like oh here comes the charge here we go here comes the charge and you're both gonna actually you both get injured that makes it the worst part is gonna be if they call it a block yeah do it again yeah like okay cool cool cool um no but we had a lot of fun uh playing basketball on monday we we lost the game um but it was a that team was good it was so fun i don't know why i think it just hanging around rachel more just maybe less and less competitive and i just went to that game i was like honestly i'll just watch i was like i'll go on if you need me but i'm just so happy to watch and we watched a

lot and the team did pretty good when we watched did we score it i didn't score at all did you score at all i i only took one shot and I got fouled. So it didn't count. So go to the free throw line over two. Oh, was that the time where you like got fouled and the guy complained about it? Even though you got like fish hooked by him? I did not like that at all. Yeah.

I was like, you grabbed onto his arm. There was one time where, so the other team is shooting free throw. Well, it doesn't even matter. Basically, a team is shooting free throws. A guy so the other team is shooting free throw well it doesn't even matter basically a team is shooting free throws a guy on the other team is like by himself and so me and brad and someone else i forget who it was we start triple teaming a guy like free throws are being shot free throws are being shot on the west side of the court 80 feet away from us we are on the east side like corner like in the corner triple teaming a guy when the ball is basically not even in play thinking we're being hilarious this guy doesn't crack a smile he just stone cold don't even look at us it was like oh well this isn't as fun was that squats was that squats later on i got him to smile finally he had huge thighs

i was like dude how much you squat like let's talk about this for a second he's like his genetics bro okay cool all right squats but yeah anyway we'll get them back in the playoffs i think yeah fun game good times went to culver's afterwards went to culver's afterwards and um yeah yeah that's fun we had a good time so uh yeah what were the videos we did wall street walmart greek life greek life greek life versus greek life also a great premise by you to play on words by me you know and oh what was another one i can't remember anything that we did no i will figure it out hold on greek life oh adulthood w's adulthood w's that'll be kind of a different video yeah easy fun tell us just quick quick uh feedback whenever it comes out i i wanted that one to be like super super quick right like like so i think we had like 40 some jokes that we don't have really jokes it's just like observations like

oh that's just a funny thing that could happen or like just a thing like like that is exciting when that happens yeah um and then we did another short wi-fi problems wi-fi problems on my level i have another i have a new idea for a video that i think is gonna be really funny are you ready for it i'm ready uh small town liars okay like everyone you know in the small town like the guy that just embellishes every story he tells yeah you feel like this is kind of the same thing with like the people that think their hometown is unique like they're lying about like you know we actually have the most meth in the world. It's like, I mean, we're, we're in the world of getting that.

Or just like, yeah. Any kind of like story that they tell like, oh, prom night, senior year. Like, you know, it's just the craziest stories. Like, yeah. Like just, just any kind of just completely embellished everything. Technically I haven't been arrested, but they wanted to, we got away. I swear I was going 98 miles an hour down that country dirt road. You know, just like.

Yeah. I slept with both principals. Yeah. No, seriously. Never got caught either. Yeah. Never gotten caught. I ended up going to juvie.

Never got caught neither. Rachel told me that there's some like baby or something in their family, or maybe it's not even a baby, but the baby is named Jovi and Rachel's dad keeps calling him Juvie. He was calling the baby Juvie. Have I told you the story about how my dad, uh, like wanted to pray for Hattie after she was born in the hospital. Can't wait.

And, uh, like he's praying for her and he's like, and you know, like it's like this emotional, like sweet time. I'm sure that's like a spiritual leader. You know,

it's great. And he's like, and God, we just thank you for the blessing. That is this little sweet baby Maddie. And I'm like, uh, it's Hattie. that's like a spiritual leader you know it's great and he's like and god we just thank you for the blessing that is this little sweet baby maddie and i'm like uh it's hattie he's like i mean hattie you interrupted yeah totally i was like yeah god doesn't know because if not my mom's gonna be my mom's gonna make fun of him way harder than i'm gonna say so i'm like oh dad uh so anyway just funny stuff like that but that's great yeah anyway dude i just truly

is still crazy to me how long it feels like it's been i'll never get over the concept of time and how it feels i can go slow and fast and in the middle and it just feels like so much has happened since last time we recorded yeah you went to show oh yeah both those things are true yeah i did a show in durham what was that like forever ago yeah it was kind of you know we're in your carolina blue here well sure go heels yeah um we took four four flights to do one show you know two there two back yeah so that felt kind of weird but it was so fun it was i think the biggest venue we've ever performed in um not the most people because it wasn't sold out but it's like 85 full dude and i don't know what it was about i think just the size of it maybe but it kind of took my breath away going out on stage

to like perform i was like this is fun wow i was like this is humongous yeah it just really felt different it felt huge um but really fun show a lot of ghosties there and um hey i have a question howdy how maddie um how do you feel about the size of a stage like not the venue itself but like do you ever do you ever get more or less excited or like more or less comfortable depending on, like, I would, I would think if it's a huge stage, you're a little too intimidated, but if it's a tiny stage, you're a little confined. Oh, I, I am thinking much more about the size of the house than I am the stage. Cause I think they make the stages all about the same size for us.

Cause there's so many different curtains that they could pull down. And I think Tom or someone decides like, Hey, let's pull this curtain. We want the stage to be about this size. Okay. So they have made the stage generally the same size every night for us. Oh, I didn't think about the curtain idea. There was one show where the monitors

were like really close to us. And there was like 10 feet between the end of the stage and the monitors. And that felt really weird. But other than that, it's all been generally the same. Gotcha. There was one show in Nashville,

Indianapolis, something like that. I remember the guy gave me some background. He's like, yeah, Harry Houdini used to perform here. He used to disappear right there. And I was like, can we do it now? He's like, no, the guy gave me some background he's like yeah harry houdini used to perform here he used to disappear right there i was like can we do it now he's like no they've changed the floor i was like dang dang i would love to just pop up for my comedy show we used to do it we had a trap door uh can i cook did you guys have one of those no it was for the gospel skit so like the like we did a gospel skit every single done this two weeks where it was like it wasn't it, it was just like, we had these different characters

that was like a parallel to the gospel story. And yeah, the, obviously the main, you know, hero would die at the end of every, or not the end, but close to the end. You think it's the end? Yeah. And yeah, like literally he would just disappear and he would go down this thing and then he would run around, he would run around the other side and there's a back door and he'd be like, oh, you know, we're so dejected back there and then you hear you hear him from the back you know whatever he says hey

hey it's me i'm back baby and we're so excited so we were basically harry houdini of the canicook world trap doors are sweet it was really cool we should have more trap doors in our homes i also when i was a kid i always wanted a fireman's pole in my house someday yes we'll see we just have we don't ours doesn't go anywhere it's just in our room just standing straight up really yeah cool we call it monk fruit uh monk fruit mondays no so just a one-story pole yeah yeah yeah just to for a boat to have some practice someday he wants to be a firefighter kind of uh we have a ranch house so we can't yeah we don't have a second story yeah you gotta practice for the monkey bar somehow they won't be exactly like this but it's good to get the grip strength right monkey bars yeah no uh monkey but i totally agree with you i always wanted to at least go like to a fire

station and try one yeah just grease up and shimmy down one that's really fun i also remember i had to come up with an invention back in the day um you know what three-year anniversary of me saying this pretty much i'll say it again in gifted class we had to come up with uh inventions and i remember coming up with i wanted a like we had a really long driveway in strafford i wanted to take what the banks use when they take the checks and send them through the tube and do that with my mail pneumatic yes pneumatic tubes. I didn't want to, I was tired of running out and getting the mail. That's a great idea. It was so far away.

Bank tubes. The place that I buy my lumber from, it's like a super old school, like lumber company and they still use pneumatic tubes to like send things back and forth between their offices. Really? Cause there's like a, there's like a lumber yard, like, like, you know, white collar or blue collar like area. And then there's like the white collar, like offices, corporate people. And they send like fast moving, like cartridges of information. It's kind of like a Tommy boy. Remember how in Tommy boy, he gets stuck. Yeah.

Same idea. It's really cool. I've never seen one outside of a bank in real life. They got like, I was like, you guys still use it. He's like, yeah, it's awesome. Wow. And he's like, yeah, they haven't made anything faster than that. Like the internet. No, no, no, no, no, no yeah, they haven't made anything faster than that. Like the internet.

No, no, no, no, no, no. Trust me. You can't use your own handwriting on the internet.

Um, that's a fun idea. I've been watching a lot of shark tank lately. Like, I've been like, that's my new show right now. Catherine and I, especially when we first had Rose,

like that first week we were tanking it up and now I'm getting Hattie into it. Are you watching new episodes? We have run the gamut okay i have a friend who just got on i don't know when it's airing or if it's already aired i think they already aired anyway look out tristan ikeka okay what does he sells uh custom rings that he makes out of spoons makes them out of like the silver spoons yes okay yeah he'll turn spoons into like custom rings no i haven't seen so the very newest newest season like they only will show them for two weeks like they'll let them let the episodes be available and then they'll take them off so um gotta be quick anyway yeah

but but i'm super into it and i'm trying to make like how to be an entrepreneur so i'm like so these rich people like if they invent if these people invent something you know i'm trying to explain it all to her yeah and she loves it but i think she just loves it because she gets to watch tv but anyway you have any ideas spurn at the house yet not not quite yet that i know of but she's creative man it's pretty cool to see some of the things that i mean you keep letting her do woodworking with you eventually she's going to find a problem and if she could find a way to solve it there's your invention 100 spreading wood glue is there an easier way there actually are some pretty cool ways to do it.

Don't enter the wood glue industry. Trust me, Titebond's got a corner on that bad boy. They've thought of everything. Don't do wood glue. No, anyway, I spent a lot of time with my children today. Catherine had two different social gatherings that she went to alone. She went to Sophie's baby shower. And then after that uh roommate harrison got engaged this morning yes and went to harrison's engagement party we were supposed to both go but our

babysitter ended up not happening so oh uh i was wondering where you're at but i was like hey they got kids i don't know yeah yeah exactly um so i was like like i just obviously monday tuesday night i was out you know so i'm like what's wrong you just, obviously Monday, Tuesday night I was out, you know? So I'm like, you, you, you do something like, and so, and she said she had a bunch of fun there. So it was fun to see Kath, but yeah, I got to spend a lot of time with Bo and Hattie and they're fun. And Bo's just like becoming more and more just crazy, dude. I don't know if it's just like, I don't know, man.

Like, he's just like, he's like reckless. Like he'll just like go through a box and like throw things everywhere. And so he's just like such a know, man. Like, he's just like, he's like reckless. Like he'll just like go through a box and like throw things everywhere. And so he's just like such a boy, man. Huh? Um, and he's like, like I had to get pretty frustrated with him today. He like threw a book and hit me in the eye. He's never know. And when I'm holding Rose, I'm like, it's like, okay, you really can't do that.

Yeah. Yeah. Like, Hey, you, like you, you have to be gentle. And even when he's gentle, he's still like smacks around the head and stuff. So, and it's one of those things where it's like, I don't want to take away all your, you know, boy tendencies, but I also want to like hone them in the right direction a little bit. Yeah. Yeah. Anyway, parenting. But yeah, this morning I was like cleaning up the dishes at breakfast and I look over and Rosie's in her swing, like sleeping and Hattie is in a rocking chair, like reading,

quote unquote, reading to her from this American girl cookbook, which is like the most Hattie is in a rocking chair, like reading, quote unquote, reading to her from this American girl cookbook, which is like the most Hattie thing you've ever heard of. Good book. And then Bo's pulling up a chair to do like the same thing, like getting a book and do it. And so it's like, well, who are my kids?

Like, these are amazing. Like it's fun. So that's awesome. Rachel, I forget who she was talking. She was talking with another person who's a teacher yesterday. And I was just kind of listening to the conversation. And she was was like i feel like just kids just are not spelling very well compared to

like what they should be like it's across the board kids are not spelling as well and then they were kind of talking they're like i think what it is like nowadays uh listen the school systems they're working in you know like kids will get done with an assignment and then they get to play on like their computer game or their you know laptop or whatever whereas like when we were kids it was like get done with your assignment now you can read yeah but like reading was the reward yeah for a decent amount of elementary school i remember yeah totally do you remember the so good for your kids is what i'm saying what was that one they better never miss a spelling bee i can't remember no i'm trying to remember that book that i really liked that whatever it doesn't matter it's

like it had to do with like a bookmark or something that's such a random okay friendle friendle you remember that book it sounds like a social media platform back in the day friendle friendle is that what it's called um anyway no i remember in first grade yeah friendle it was called friendle thank you very much um very much if anybody's out there there was friendle and there was like uh my space no they were they were like seek uh sequence see what's the word the card game the thing after no like like sequential well it's what's it's like a series gosh uh no i remember first grade like claim to fame okay the first one in my class maybe the grade no one really announced it maybe ever to write down and count to a thousand like i

wrote down like from one to a hundred or for one to a thousand just for fun no i think it was like an extra thing that you could do still like those you were doing like mr beast challenges in first grade i was that'd go viral five years ago and then i was like so what do i do now that i've gotten to a thousand and they're like you can keep going if you want to and i gladly kept going i thought it was so fun i don't know it was just like the like competitiveness of me of like, I'm not going to let anybody beat me. I mean, yeah. Widen the gap. Keep going. I mean, yeah. Claire Boulder is going to get to a thousand eventually. So I'm getting there. You got to

have a lead. I'm going to 2000 right now. Yeah. Anyway, uh, that's demoralizing. You're in the nine hundreds. You hear a Brad's not stopping. You're like, God, I'm never going to catch him. No, no way. Would I? So anyway, that's interesting though. Look, I heard about, uh, I think it was from the CDC, whatever. I don't know the exact numbers. Let's say, let's say, let's say normally, like when, by the time you're a year old, you're supposed to know, let's say two years old. I don't know.

I don't know. Somebody's going to be like, Brad, you're wrong. Um, two years old, you're supposed to know a hundred words. Like, okay. And now they're changing it to like, you're always supposed to know 50 words. So like the, Oh, the goalposts i guess is is moving up or whatever like that's granted let me just preface this by saying i don't know anything marketing degree don't know anything don't have kids those are the exact numbers i just know that it's like significantly less now they're

having like lower expectations for children this isn't even about the numbers but just like i am interested i'm confused why the cdc is setting those guidelines also true i i read i read people that are also like what what do they have to do with their department yeah huh i could be wrong about cdc too but i'm pretty sure it's cdc that's interesting uh oh well so you know what this reminds me i had a new segment idea we don't have to do it tonight we can come up with like a new or we can come prepare with some stuff i want to call i have a new segment called something like this is going to make people mad or uh everybody's least favorite segment something like that troll yeah trolling people

and it's kind of like we did with the movie bracket so it's just one uh every episode we pick a topic that we know nothing about and we just go in depth about it and just talk about how much we know about it big ufc fight this weekend oh my god and just talk about the two people i mean de soto or ramirez like chuck lididdell? What are we thinking? I mean, one of them's got the grappling hook advantage. The other is a puncher. I know that Nag Baxter is a big UFC guy, so he could get riled up by that. I just want to really upset at least, you know, 50 people every episode. Like choosing something that they're specifically like in love with and just talk about it not knowing anything.

So do a segment. We'll pick a topic and just go in depth just for a few minutes. Okay. So. Great. CDC. That's this week. That's this week's segment. We'll pick a topic and just go in depth for just for a few minutes. Okay. Great. CDC. That's this week. That's this week's segment. CDC and updates.

Yeah. Don't good. You're at Bailey. Don't give me a ride home afterwards. I was really at the mercy of them. I really liked him. They came to church the next morning with us.

No way. Yeah, that was awesome. They're great. Yeah. I really enjoyed my time. Some great jingles. Yeah. Derek and Europe met swing dancing.

How cool is that? Oh, that is cool. I was like, what century are you from? Yeah. And they were the ones that went to funky town beforehand so that makes sense gosh it's like all the different generations they're fun people they're fun people i ended up meeting the girl who started the like ghost runners glossary she was there at the show who's that um maybe annie or something i didn't write down her name i don't remember it but she's 16 years old i was like you're the one doing this

she's like yeah i just had a little extra time i was like that's amazing because I almost went the whole night without learning that about her I'm glad she said it eventually yeah I was like that is so cool um met sensei Seth seen him in the comments yeah yeah sure finally met him Durham's bringing it out dude there were so many ghosties yeah uh yeah so it was really really fun and next morning we're leaving from the hotel on my phone waiting for the uber i see a guy kind of standing over me and uh i look up i'm like what's up he's like hey it's front row frank it was the guy i did crowd work with the whole night was staying at the same hotel no and i was like dude what are you doing here and he was like uh he's like well my wife actually ran into you guys yesterday i was like that was your wife like we met her yesterday yes we did we saw her at the

show she's like and he was like yeah my wife recognized trey but didn't into you guys yesterday. I was like, that was your wife. Like we met her yesterday. Yes, we did. We saw her at the show. She's like, and he was like, yeah, my wife recognized Trey, but didn't know you guys were in town. We're not even from here. Um, so we bought tickets right then and there.

And then getting VIP front row tickets. And then I like made him part of the show. And I did crowd work with him. So, so like the classic, like thing you talk about where it's like, Hey, I'm a huge fan.

Like you should come like, no, no, no. I don't know. Oh, I can't come now. This guy actually did it. Like he actually came. Yeah. He's a huge fan. you should come like no no i don't know oh i can't come now this guy actually did it like he actually came yeah he's a huge fan and he got tickets really fast frank and his wife

came and yeah i've never seen someone like after we've done crowd work together it's like you might see like a fan or something but never like the guy i like i know quite a bit about you now you've never even talked to the crowd work guy after the show no i'll see him after the show but never like the next day right or anything like that never that you got more of a full backstory with this guy and everything yeah the vibes were so good and then i kind of ruined it i was like well what do you you're not from here what are you in town for funeral oh right on okay celebration of life okay well probably a good thing he came to comedy show then hopefully it was a healthy distraction for you know oh man uh so that was really fun yeah what do you say to that yeah oh hey who

it's like no don't just just oh sorry to hear that just yelling who yeah oh they have life insurance kind of little pause go by think you'll get inherited like was it an older man in your family that was wealth i got some wealth golly uh but yeah that was very really fun uh and then shortly after that my day was not as fun we our first flight had been delayed like 40 minutes so i was like okay not a huge deal we got options one make up time in the air. That magical thing that pilots do. Just, you know, go a little faster. And so that shortened our layover from about an hour to about 10, 15 minutes or so. So it's like, OK, still doable. And yeah, maybe we'll catch up.

And you're going from where to where? I don't even know where we were at. Oh, I think it was from Durham to Detroit to Kansas City. OK. So get to Detroit. We land. Check my phone. Like, all right.

Didn't make up any time in the air. That's all right. But what happens pretty often, you notice this because you're always jealous of these people. They're like, all right, now this is a connecting flight that is running late. So everyone, we ask you stay seated

unless you're going to Milwaukee. Milwaukee people, you know, and you're always saying like, man, I wish I was going to Milwaukee. I got this flight earlier. No such announcement is made. If you're going to Kansas City, go ahead and go.

So I'm like, okay, they must not be worried about us. Like they must, you know, so I don't know something you don't. Yeah. i'm like okay they must not be worried about us like they must you know so they must know something you don't yeah i'm like they must just be holding the flight they're not worried either way trey and i get off the plane we're at gate 67 we got to go to gate 33 which sounds kind of close in my head i was like oh not too bad that sounds close i know i don't know why i was like oh same terminal it was dude i bet it was a half mile away and we were jogging the whole time actually took a video on my phone because i was going to post it to my story like another week doing this in the airport um comedy life is the best yeah i'm just like jogging quite a bit the backpack

yeah doing the swish swash swish swash how's your new luggage um didn't have it yet i because that new luggage is big bag just had to carry on for a one day trip good for you and so but those uh lock aligning wheels nice yeah and so run it through the airport finally get to our gate it's so far away and they are closing the door they're home alone in you yeah but closing from the inside so she closes it and then the inside yes oh and so there's no one there we just see her close it we can't open the door it's like one of those like doors that you see like at by the boiler room of the cafeteria at school like how do they ever get it's like there's no yeah there's no handle on this side that's a great comparison i know exactly you know what i'm talking about it's like that room i don't think anybody's even

like legally allowed to go in here it's super heavy like you could kind of get your fingers in there like barely get a little but still i would be scared i don't know what would come out of there what kind of spirits exactly or honestly it might be a freezer back there i don't know like it's such a thick door only andy the janitor could get back there yeah and so they close it and we just can't believe it you knock yeah i would be like oh yeah we're trying everything and there's but there's no one there at the gate anymore. Like they're all gone.

Sure. We ran all this way. They didn't hold the flight for us one second. And so we're just watching our plane being boarded. Like we're seeing people get on the plane still. We're right there. And there wasn't like another gate next to you. You could go talk to like there was no one around.

Really? And so, yeah, we're just so frustrated. Trey gets on the he gets behind the desk. He's at the computer trying to look at stuff. He gets on the he gets behind the desk he's at the computer trying to look at stuff he gets on the microphone he's like attention no way across it work yeah dude it was going over the airport speakers he gets on the microphone he goes we need help gate 33 we need help dude it was awesome that is so bold dude we were so i would never would you do that?

I was thinking, I wanted to get on there. I was like, I want to see my family because I was going straight to, well, I'll get into that later. But yeah, dude, it was like we had sprinted. We'd done everything we could to get there on time and they didn't hold it. Like they know we're coming. Right. And they didn't hold the flight.

They know that they don't have everybody scanned in. They know that there's these five, like you hear it all the time. Like last call for so-and-so. Yeah. And we ran all that way. Were you technically late? Like what, what was the time? Did you check?

It was like the flight, you know, this, I don't know when they stopped boarding. Every airline is kind of different, but we had gotten there before it was supposed to depart, you know? So it wasn't like at this point we were not late. Right. So I don't know. That's insane that he got on the mic. So he gets on the mic and just keeps yelling like, help, help.

We're at gate 33. Dave, I do anything. And so that's the thing. It was the mic so he gets on the mic and just keeps yelling like help Help, we're a gate 33 Dave. I do anything It's so that's the thing is like even if we get in trouble great someone has to come over and get us in trouble Who cares no one ever comes over? We're just no one over the airport I mean clearly not even trying to sound like a you know a Delta agent Hey, we can hear this because usually Microphones like either go for like the like the five gates around you or like sometimes it's like the whole airport like i don't know how far away but it sounded loud dude detroit delta terminal i mean tracer's over the intercom hey can anyone help us that's one of

those things that i just wouldn't i don't think i would ever have maybe if i'm with my friends i have more of an audacity to do that but like man it was pretty awesome that's great but actually it didn't feel that awesome at the time because we were just so for i don't get legitimately frustrated almost ever uh but this was just like you know we done everything we felt like we could and for me it was like my plan was so i packed that bag but there was a strafford bag too it's like as soon as i land in kansas city i pick it up rachel rachel's waiting at trey's house because as soon as i get there she's hopping in my. We're going straight to Stratford because everyone is waiting on us. We're going to be the last people to get to Stratford.

And then we just don't get on this plane. And it's like, this doesn't just affect me. This is now Rachel's plane. This is my family's plane. This is my grandparents. It was so frustrating. So Trey and I just wait. We wait for 15 minutes and we just see the plane just sitting there still.

People still boarding and boarding. The plane is not moving. This is ridiculous. And we wait for 15 minutes and we just see the plane just sitting there still sitting there people still boarding and boarding the plane is not moving like this is ridiculous and we wait for someone to finally come back in and uh we were just like hey and she's like do you guys miss your flight like yeah yeah did you not hear the intercom maybe you didn't catch the loudspeaker announcement we made and we were like look we sprinted here we you know i'm sure you guys were aware like do you guys not hold flights she's like no she's like typing on her computer not looking up at us it was so frustrating the lack of like sympathy at one point i even said body language yeah it was just like not a care in the world just like typing on our computer no we don't hold flights

and i was like i mean i've been on airlines before that hold flights what is this southwest delta okay and she was like i feel like southwest would never she was like we don't hold flights. Well, is this Southwest Delta? Okay. And she was like, I feel like Southwest would never, she was like, we don't hold flights. If there's eight people or less that are going to miss it. And I was like, Oh wow. I was like, do you think other airlines would care about, um, you know, customer service for someone like, uh, you know, you get a little feisty, feisty Jake came out a little bit. It was more her like body language. And just like, and anyway, she was just being so rude and at one point i was just like and it wasn't that sassy but i was just like a little sympathy would be nice just i even said that to her i was just like just yeah acting like you care would go a long way i

think that's what i'm saying like southwest if you've ever missed your flight if you've ever had any kind of inconvenience they always give you a voucher right yeah like and that voucher is good for like a year it's like sometimes sometimes i didn't even know I was inconvenienced and they'll send me something like, Hey, I don't know if you realize this, but our, uh, wifi was down. Uh, so here's $75 for your next flight. The bathroom was out for 15 minutes. So we gave you a voucher. Carl stunk it up pretty bad after jumping catfish. So, uh, at one point, uh, we obviously had an issue cause he said, uh, don't go in there after me i blew it up and that caused an issue so some of our stewardess are doing the uh yoga trick to have you pick up your trash so what is that oh yeah i forgot yeah i've never been down yeah god everybody's been i remember

one time you had train i had a flight canceled southwest and they gave us each a voucher like trey had paid for it they gave me one i was like i didn't pay for this anybody that's on like yeah the register for it yeah it's crazy so so it was such a bummer um and then of course as we're waiting there like these uh older women come who didn't run they finally walk off like did we miss the flight yeah you're too late grandma you're sweating with your jamba juice you're like yeah trey's trey's on the loudspeaker yeah we did yeah we missed it yes we missed it um but then i did something uh well two last things to end the story we're just so dejected being like all right i guess so this is like ends up being a three or four hour difference i forget so it's like all right tell my family i'm gonna be there at six i'm gonna be there at 10 yeah so that's a

bummer and uh so i'm just, we're walking away. Just slow, just moping. Just like, let's just go find a place to post up. Charlie Brown. Yeah. Rest of the development. George Michael. Yeah.

And dude, it was so perfect. It was awful. A woman comes up to me. It's like, hey, how would you like to have more Delta Sky Miles? It's like, not today. I wouldn't. You want me to show you where I want you to put those Delta Sky Miles? Yeah.

I don't even know if I really liked that part. I was like, I'm not interested. Oh, man. I just missed my flight. I'm having kind of a bad day. That's too bad. But then I did something I've never done before. Two words.

I've always heard of it. Never had to do it. Retail therapy. I was walking around. There was a PGA Tour store. And I was like, that's fun. A PGA Tour. Like, that's the brand? That's the brand, I guess. I was walking around. There was a PGA Tour store and I was like, that's fun. A PGA Tour.

Like that's the brand? That's the brand, I guess. I didn't even know. Uh-huh. I know. Maybe I should have known that. Retail therapy. And so I went,

I was like, this is sweet. They have a simulator and I was like, this is amazing. I'll just swing golf clubs for the next three hours. I was like,

does the simulator work? They're like, charge Delta, dude. Yeah. I would. And they're like, we end up having to take the simulator down.

The TSA doesn't like the golf clubs we have. They're like, apparently they're considered a weapon. And I was like, we end up having to take the simulator down. The TSA doesn't like the golf clubs we have. They're like, apparently they're considered a weapon. And I was like, oh, OK. All right. But anyway, I bought some golf clothes. I legitimately felt better. I was like, this seems so like shallow of me, but I don't care. I put them right in my suitcase.

Felt good. That's what we'd always say at Canacook. Like we had so many homeschool seven year olds. But the very first full day there, it was like, they got to go to the store and yeah, our director would always be like, you know, good old American capitalism, you know, solve all these kids getting all their swag, like their Canacook swag. So, well, that's good. I'm glad that, uh, some money could help, you know, throw some money at the situation. Yeah. Just bought some new golf clothes. I was really excited about it. And then some fun stuff did happen the next flight as soon as i'm boarding uh the

one behind me i mean we had just stepped on the plane and i don't know if she had airpods in but she screamed it y'all serving peanuts i was like man this girl loves peanuts i guess i'm gonna get her some asap uh but then i learned i think she's allergic it's just right away she's got to get that out of the gate like Like don't serve peanuts. Allergy here. Please, please don't. Pretzels are fine.

Yeah. I think, you know, even pistachios are different. Genetically. are different. Sorry. One last thing.

Okay. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And then, yeah, I have questions, but go ahead.

Oh, about peanuts. Nope. Okay. Okay. Last thing about this. I haven't spoken about this. Rachel knows you can ask Rachel.

She knows, but it never felt podcast worthy, but i would say the last five times i've gone out of town for tour trips whatever for those five times i've been asked at some point to switch my seat by like a family i don't know if i just have a face it's like he won't care yeah that guy that guy's a pushover yeah oh he'll say yes to anything sure and so i just keep i you know it's all text rachel happened again and she just knows what that means. She's like, really another one. And so it happens again on the peanut flight and dude, it was such a fun upgrade. Cause I go from an aisle seat, which is not, you know, still fine, but it's no window to then, uh, she's, you know,

some mom was like, would you want to switch seats? I want to be next to my son. I'm like, yes, of course. Well, son is sitting back there in a seat. It's the only seat in that row. So I'm like, oh, exit. I have all this leg room. There's no seat in front of me. I've never even been in a seat like this. Like, this is awesome.

Yeah. Great upgrade. Happy to do it. So I'm sitting back there and I'm like, oh yeah, exit row. I have to like to give the verbal yes. So I'm like, all right. Yes. Yeah.

So I'm like, I'm, you know, great posture. I'm sitting up, you know, I'm like, oh, I'm going to nail this. Yes. I'm so excited. And she's like scanning across like, okay. And yes, yes, yes, yes. She scans back. Yes, yes, yes, yes.

And she scans back and I go, yes. Apparently I wasn't in the exit room. So I just said, yes. She was like, what was that? I was like, nothing. I was so excited. You're like the peanut lady. Like you're just, you're just volunteering information that they don't need.

Oh yeah. I'll help. Exit right here. Strong guy. They're trying to do like the presentation in the front and you just go, yes. Just FYI, yes. That is how it works. That's how I do it.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, that's correct. Go on. But that is correct. Oh yeah. Oh yeah. So that was embarrassing. Apparently I was sitting right behind the exit row and that's why I had all the leg room. But that is correct. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. So that was embarrassing. Apparently, I was sitting right behind the exit row. And that's why I had all the leg room. There

was no chair in front of me right behind me. Oh, I see. Yeah. I don't know. Either way. I was so excited. Yep. It was like I was bidding at an auction. Yep. Yeah. Like the storage. Yep. I think. Sorry, what was it? Oh, I just said, yep. Do you, do you know, I'm pretty sure you have to literally say yes. Like, I don't think you can say yeah. Oh really? Yeah. Yeah. Oh yeah. Like I think you have to say yes. Definitely. Oh, that's what's up. No doubt. No doubt on this thing. Um, on God. Sorry. We really need a yes. Really? Not even on God. That's not on the gang. Yeah. Still not. Okay.

Yes. What else could you say? No cap. No diggity. Bet. Oh, hey, yo bet. Bet on that day. Yeah.

Yeah. Bad day to be an exit road door. I'll say that. How's that for an answer? It's bad day to be an exit road door. Yeah. Okay. So I didn't have a question so you you said that they didn't let you on the previous flight that you were trying to run from

till i get to the the flight that ended up getting that leaving without you they didn't they didn't say like hey if you're going to kansas city like get you yeah they never had that announcement here's a question if let's say let's say there's 25 rows on an airplane. I don't know if that's way under way over probably under, but let's say you're in row 23 out of 25, you're in the back and you're on the aisle seat and they didn't make the announcement, but you're like, I just need to get to that front. Do you think you could time it to the point where like you could get up there like before everyone? Cause like we've talked about this, how like, how like there's this weird thing where like right when the seatbelt sign goes off, people jump up, people freak out, like, Oh, it's disgusting. And then there's always so much

of a weight to like actually get off the airplane. It might be my least favorite part of America, but I think, I think if you just, just went off sides a little bit, like if you undid the seatbelt and just like, you got it just at the right point where like little bit, like if you undid the seatbelt and just like, you got it just at the right point where like it was, it was close enough to when they were going to make the announcement that they're not going to like penalize you for it, but you got your bag and you sprinted. I think you get to the very front. I would, I would have to be late to my own wedding or something to do that. I don't think. And just for any other circumstance, I could do that really just socially. I don't know. I just feel so wrong. It would have to be a major life event

that I'm running late for. Would you, what if you did do that? What if you successfully got to the front and you made it to your flight, but you saw as you go in, they're closing the doors with no handles on the outside and you see Trey trailing behind, what would you do?

Wait, hold on, hold on. Like if you realize like you're gonna make it but i made it oh put my shoe in the door okay throw throw the shoe throw the shoe in the room if i lose a shoe i lose a shoe i get tray okay awesome i get my little pudging pigeon foot pudging a little pigeon foot um okay i sent you a uh video real quick oh cool my dad i this was a couple weeks ago but i keep forgetting to talk about it I'm gonna post this video as well on our Patreon or maybe we can just post it Justin can post it here, but

Can you on the national championship? My dad is a big parades guy I don't yeah you went with with us to the Chiefs parade Chiefs parade and my dad like loves like takes pride and not even pride Just takes joy and getting there very early and just like, yeah, like talking, like spending time. He can easily spend time by himself, you know, sitting there in his lawn chair. He can, you know, converse with anybody. And so he's like, Hey, anybody that wants to go, I'm going to the KU parade. It's like one o'clock on a Sunday afternoon. I can't wait to see this. And, um, he texted me like 10 AM that morning.

He's like, Hey guys, this is FYI. I'm going to be on channel four news. And so, wait, hold on. Just to do this,

a math, the praise at one. And he said, I'm going to be at the 10. No. Yeah. So he got there. I don't even know what time he might say 10 AM news.

Yeah. I mean, like he got there, I think really early. So yeah, he would have had to already be on the news or yeah, already be there before 10 a.m news yeah i mean like he got there i think really early so yeah he would have had to already be on the news or yeah already be there before 10 a.m i'm sure i would guess he was there at seven wow maybe maybe for a 1 p.m parade for like college basketball yeah because he was and i like for the chief's parade for the royals parade he did the same thing like he gets there so early because he wants to get like the prime right spot he kind of like scouts out like i know i don't remember for the chief's parade but i know the royals parade

like he purposely had a spot on a corner at the corner so they'd have to slow down to like turn around these quarters it's better move yeah so anyway so let's let's just watch this video real quick okay and justin you can put it in if you want here places but a lot of places down here have some sort of uh can you. Okay, listen, real quick. I got to get down to Dave Ellis. You guys jog with me down to Dave Ellis. He was first in line. He's our first parade goer down here.

Season ticket holder. And he picked his spot. There's no one. He's the only one there. There's no one. Of its location. Oh my God. I can't believe how alone he is.

Look at how he zzips his shirt! You're first in line. You should win something. Why did you pick this location? Well, because it's close to Porta Potties, it's close to a taco shop, and it's close to where I'm parked. The camera work is so funny. I've been to the Chiefs parade, I've been to the Royals parade. I always get there early, save seats for people, and they always appreciate that. That's awesome. Dave, and you've been saving a few seats for family members. Yes, I am.

Any family member who wanna come, they're here. All right, you're here nice and early. Thank goodness it's not Chiefs Parade weather. Exactly, it's very nice. Yes, it's a good time. But go Rock Chalk. Thanks for being here. He graduated from Emporia State.

Hold on, I gotta take that back. They have plenty of national championships. Yes, it's a good time. But go Rock Chalk. Thanks for being here. He graduated from Emporia State. Hold on. I got to take that back. National championships. Yes. It's good time. Go rock chalk. He graduated from Emporia state, you know, but they almost said go chiefs. He was doing the Tomahawk truck. He's all KU all the way. Oh, Dave. All right. So anybody on YouTube is going to get the visual, but like, so they, they pan around. It is unbelievably desolate.

I mean, there could, there was zero other people. My dad said, I think the only other person on the street was a homeless person. he's like and believe it or not brad i talked to him i had a good conversation with like you know my dad will talk to anybody i can't believe how alone it looked that looks like an old western i think i saw a tumbleweed go by that is so funny dude yeah he he was he said he saw them coming obviously for a mile away because he's the only one there and he was like he's like yeah i coming obviously for a mile away because he's the only one there. And he was like, he's like, yeah,

I pretend not to see him pretend to be like, no, nonchalant. And then whenever they came over to me, I was like, Oh yeah, yeah, of course I'll be in it.

You know, but if you know my dad, he's so pumped to be on the news. Like, I mean, he zips his shirt down pretty quickly. Show that off. Right.

Cause yeah, he had like just normal jacket, but he had KU underneath it. And yeah, taco shop, port-a-potties and parking spots. It's all he needs. Anyway, so, and the funniest thing.

So he's like, anybody from my family wants to come. I got some seats for him. No one else showed up. Like he's the only one from my family, poor guy. But you know, my dad is so social that like, yeah, he's like, yeah, I met, I saw some people from my work and they came and then this guy from my BSF group came and Bible study, like all these different things. So it wasn't, he wasn't alone. That's the dream though, to be able to go places older in life and know you're going to have friends there, right. You know, cause

you've been social enough, right. That's like a game that my family used to always play. Like, all right, first one to see somebody they know, and they have to mention you by name, you get a dollar. Like it was like a big thing. Like anytime we went to public events. So anyway, that's my dad for you. I can't believe I kept forgetting to say it Like it was like a big thing. Like anytime we went to public events. So anyway, that's my dad for you. I can't believe I kept forgetting to say it because I was like, that's an amazing video of my dad. And he's so pumped about it. Like the local news,

like he's made it. Got to be on 10 AM. Yeah, dude. That is so funny. Good. Rock. Good.

Rock. We need to make that into like a soundbite go rock talk oh man good times dude yeah it was great so that's old daddy boy good what else you got uh yeah i got a few different things let's see so more kids things first of all bo got his first big boy haircut this week oh i saw that he looked nice you would think um yeah so we went to marv's because marv yeah i asked marv i was like do you do haircuts for kids and he's like yeah and if they're a client you know a client's son or daughter i guess but a client's kid we give him the first haircut for free i'm like sweet might as well now i know why i'll just say that

he did he did just fine on the front so we get in there we have no idea how it's going to be like um as far as how bo is going to behave and luckily bo is like a gym like somebody else was like i've never seen a kid behave this well you know getting his haircut and so that was pretty cool cool but as he's as marv's shaving like you know like whenever they shave the back like the neck they just go straight like razor correct like whatever and Marv just notched like a like just took a big old nick out of his like head why was Bo moving no that's the crazy thing and everyone's gonna assume that and so it's like whatever it's not the end of the world because everyone's gonna be like oh it's

just a little kid's haircut and he probably moved bow is completely still marv marv just like i mean it was kind of an awkward angle like bow was sitting on my lap and so that's kind of weird in and of itself but i mean he's watching it happen yeah and i watched it happen and then katherine's like standing in front of bow like kind of keeping his attention and we made eye contact and i was just like we didn't say anything but it was just kind of like a oh, you see this, right? What do we do? So it's one of those things where it was really fun. It was great.

But I was really excited because Marv has all these Jayhawks and Chiefs pennants and stuff. But overall, it was still just like, okay, I guess. It was a fun rite of passage to be like, let's take you to your first haircut. It's one that you'd gather about there. Yeah, it was kind of cool. But yeah, overall, it was not. I don't know if we're going to go back to Marv. I'll say that.

I like them for adults, but I don't know about for little kids. Pediat, tricats, or haircuts. Pediat, pediat cuts. Pedifolics. Good. And then another kid's thing that happened, it was last night, yeah.

So obviously with this new baby, you know, especially since I was gone Monday and Tuesday night, I Yeah. So obviously with this new baby, you know, I'm, especially since I was gone Monday and Tuesday night, I'm feeling like the need this week to like, I need to step up my game. You know, like I gave a pep talk to Hattie of like, Hey, you're going to need to help out a lot more with mom around the house in the mornings, especially. So we actually like, I've been teaching Hattie how to make toast, which I know it sounds so simple, but like, yeah, I've like made it like a thing. Like I've called, I call her the toast master. And so like, and so like, I'm like, how do you, no one makes toast like you, like, this

is the best toast ever. You're the toast master. And so she's really proud of it and everything. Anyway, but last night I was trying to step up. I was trying to do all these different things because I don't remember. Just because you love your wife. Yeah. I'm trying to think if there was like, oh yeah, Catherine ended up leaving. So I knew

she was going to be leaving soon. So I was like, okay, if I can get all this stuff done before she, anyway, it doesn't matter. So the kids were taking a bath. Bo and Hattie were taking a bath and all of a sudden I hear Catherine go, Brad, Brad. And I was like, uh oh. And I, that means really just one thing. It means that one

of the kids has pooped in the bath. Got it. And so I walk in there and Hattie said, somebody pooped in the bathtub. Somebody pooped in the bathtub. And I was like, that's a weird way to say that. I was like, Hattie, did you poop in the bathtub?

Which she's never done before. Bo's done it, I think, a few different times. And she's like, I don't know. I don't know. I was like, you absolutely did. And she was like, I think she was worried that she was going to get in trouble or something. Yeah. But we got the kids.

We quickly evacuated them to the other bathtub. We have to not try to brag. So when you poop in a bathtub. Yeah. Let's talk about it. Are you sitting just hiney on linoleum? You're just it's flush. Like, how does it come out?

I don't know. That's a good question. I think maybe, you know, sometimes you're reaching for a bath toy. Okay. And maybe it comes out then. You prop yourself up a bit? Yeah. Okay.

Yeah. Lunging. You know, you know how you can lunge and poop. Warrior too. Yeah. Warrior pose. So for whatever reason, probably because I'm not as grossed out about it as Catherine is, I've kind of become the pick up the poop from the bath guy.

Okay. No one picks it up like you, Brad. No one does. You're a poop master. And I'm like, okay, here I go. So I go get a paint stir stick from the garage, and I'm literally just like balancing these turds on my stir stick, like shifting them from the bath into the tub or into the toilet toilet

have you thought about getting a garbage disposal in your bathtub drain that's a great idea that's so let me let me tell you so so i yeah so so so we'll just call it we'll say this there are there's there's some pretty solid logs and then there's some more we'll call them ground beef got it okay and if you know if you've ever made tacos like you know that that hamburger starts off kind of big but then if you want to mince that meat a little bit yeah so so i get i get the logs i get them out of there um we'll call those the sausage links got it okay but then the ground beef still in there the the jimmy dean and so so i do what any uh rational you know dad would do then the ground beef still in there, the, the Jimmy Dean. And so, so I do what any, uh, rational, you know, dad would do. I, I ground beef that thing.

I, I took the stir stick. I, I Emeril, you know, I Gordon Ramsey that thing and just, and just said, I'm pretty sure that this is going to go through the, the drain. If I, if I just get it thin enough and I put enough water pressure on it. Good. Um, and yeah, that's the next thing I turn on the, the shower, just get it on the jet setting and just really make those bad boys smaller, like as small as I can get them and just, just say like, they'll, they'll disintegrate eventually once they get through the drain and I'm the dad of the year for that. it's kind of a gross story it's a very gross story but that's part of being a dad mission accomplished

yep so i ground beefed it good a couple a couple weeks ago in the basketball game i biffed it this time i ground beefed it all right biffing and beefing yeah wow but anyway that was i remember as i was doing it i remember you saying i don't remember what the story was but i remember you thinking are you saying out loud like this is like a great, like form of birth control right now. And I was like, Jake, Jake, if Jake were here right now, he would think this is birth control too. Just like, this is, this happens, you know, once out of every three years or whatever, but when it happens, it's no fun. Yeah. Then again, I mean, once you start really changing dypes and doing all that, and once you've delivered your own baby, you're pretty desensitized to fluids and solids probably.

It's pretty true. Yeah. There's a, I don't know though. Catherine was really grossed out by the ones in the bathtub. So what's that say? I don't know. I don't know. It sounds like she needs to.

It's a mind over matter thing though, for the most part. Just like, just do it. Don't think about it too much. You just got to take yourself back to Puddle City. PC. Find that, that strength you had then and beef that ground yeah anyway so that happened i'm a dad and i'm a good one guys okay let it be known uh say in puddle city just reminded me um one of my best friends from college lewis davis texted me this week i guess he listens to

the podcast occasionally and what he said heard of lewis davis well two last friend two last names that's probably why very forgettable okay uh tell me more about him i believe half american half indonesian um okay looks a good bit like taylor lautner okay um married he married whitney coats coats Yeah. She's warm. Yeah. You got a warm personality. Okay, good. Awesome guy. Took her name or his?

They ended up taking his. Good for them. Progressive. I believe I was roommates with Louis Davis when the whole Bly and Turnbow thing happened. I don't know if he was in the room, but we were roommates at the time. Anyway, good friend. Hilarious. So he texted you.

He texted me. He's like, hey, I listen to Ghost Hunters every now and then. Wanted to know if you could do me a quick favor. Really, any time that you feel like you're saying an inside joke, would love for you to just pause for about five or ten minutes and address me personally and explain the entire backstory. Okay. I don't think the rest of your listeners will mind.

Okay. So let's just keep that in mind for Lewis. Okay. You know, he's not caught up. He doesn't know everything. Okay. So if we use inside jokes, have to tell lewis where they come from that's fun okay and we'll look at the camera the whole time so it's like lewis lewis yeah listen please okay lewis davis lewis davis i don't know dude i don't know if you're a best friend oh yeah

he was in the crew yeah he was in a super hall okay all right there's also something i don't think i've ever talked about but tell me about it yeah inside joke i don't know about just turn to the camera whatever like there was a crew of like eight of us or so like eight guys were just best friends and anyway ronnie the most mature one ends up becoming an ra before the rest of us he's like well on a ron a yeah's like, I think if we move to this dorm, I can become the RA and pretty much everyone is moving out. So if we all move there,

it's like D-Wade, Bosh, and LeBron all go into the heat. Like if we all do it together. Yeah, super team. Yeah, so we just called it Super Hall. And so we all went and it was a lot of fun. But yeah, great guy. So just keep that in mind.

Something I witnessed yesterday, which would love for you to been there with me brad uh rachel's mom is in town uh and as i've also mentioned race rachel is a track and field coach yes that's right and so i was texting angie and i was like let's do something fun for rachel let's like surprise her let's do this or something i was like let's let's take her some of her favorite things let's go surprise her to track me let's okay let's go watch one dude we only watched about 30 minutes and it was electric i mean there is something to see at any second that's pretty hilarious i mean you got to keep your head on a swivel this is middle school it's a middle school track meet dude it's anarchy out

there i mean we got boys and girls running against each other what they're running 600 meter dashes 2022 something i've never even seen before yeah 600 meters 600 dashes and i'll tell you one thing just under 600 meters that's the inside joke from And I'll tell you one thing. Just under 600 meters. That's an inside joke from last week, Lewis. Somebody left a voice memo and said they were going to be in Hawaii for just under nine days.

Okay. Go ahead. They would, every kid who ran the 600, from what I could tell, was running it for the first time ever in their life. Because they would come out of the gate

sprinting. And then, dude, I mean, half the competitors. They would start walking? They walking they would start walking no way one kid almost sat down he was definitely thinking about sitting down he stayed in his lane but i know he wanted to sit he was wearing cargo shorts but oh i mean people would walk it was so fun watching the walkers because there'd be a time where like even the kids running or not running that fast and they're walking they'd walk for about 50 meters and they'd like amp themselves up and they just start sprinting again yeah and then for a little bit they might catch them the walker

might win you know and then they would have to walk again but it was electric rachel is over by the high jumpers uh and there was one point a kid is running to go high jump kind of trips over his feet rachel also claims his shoes are way too big so So that could be the issue. Kind of trips, kind of falls into the mat, but not on the mat or into the mat, underneath the mat. What? Goes to high jump. How does he get underneath it? And wedges himself.

Oh, it's high jump, high jump. Yeah, so the high jump mat. But still, I mean, there's no room under the mat. But the way he falls. So he just falls headfirst under the mat. Wedges himself underneath it. Dude, this is what I'm saying. I mean, it was a sight to see.

There's stuff happening like that at all times. Dude, it was awesome. Kids just under the high jump mat. What was which? And then I saw the shot put. I was like, these kids are like when they would throw it back. They're chucking it. I found it.

It's a softball. So I'm like, oh, why are you? Why even use shot put for if it's softball? Just I mean, chuck it. Absolutely. Why? Why even throw it from the chin at that point? If it's a softball so i'm like oh why are you why even use shot put for if it's all just i mean chuck it absolutely why why even throw it from the chin at that point if it's a softball i mean it was like they were playing by their own rules every event was like i mean just whatever you think just make it make it work yeah yeah as long as the round ball just throw something out there one thing i did really like which missouri we never did this but they ended the meet the very last event was

the sprint medley so it was all different uh links was like you went 50 meters then 100 then 200 then 400 or something like a relay yeah so a relay medley i was like that's fun i wish we would have done that yeah yeah anything to mix it up a little bit yeah they do it swimming let's i mean obviously i probably wouldn't but if i were to run in one of these events which one do you think i have the best chance of beating a middle schooler at um because it sounds like some of them struggled at 600 meters but i don't know i would struggle too but i would know enough to like not like walk like yeah you could have the pacing down yeah so as much as it might be kind of stinky i think the long distance might be the key to your victory.

Maybe so. Cause like a hundred meter dash kids know they can sprint that. And some might be faster. Okay. Let's say this. Let's, let's say how many is it? Eight people that do a hundred meter dash at a time.

Um, not at, uh, Sumner arts and sciences school, but yes, at other ones. But usually like, let's say there's eight.

How, how like you think I could get in the top six? I'm trying. Um, from what I saw yesterday. Yes. Really? Some of their running form looked as if like their arm was asleep and they were trying to like get the feeling back. Sure. As they're sprinting.

Yeah. We all know how that, yeah, i know exactly what you're talking about um maybe i'll just come sometime and pretend like i'm a coach but really start the uh like beginning with them and you're kind of like cheering them on like go come on let's go and then i give a photo finish at the end for him you've got a clipboard but you're using it yeah yeah yeah dig dig here Yeah. Yeah. Dig. Dig here, Ellis. Yeah. I like it. Track meet was fun.

Good, good times. And then... Does she have like a specific area of the track team that she coaches? Or is it she's just all of them? I don't know if she's always... I think she's typically with like some of the jumpers in the field events.

But I mean, there was one track meet where they're like, you're going to be with the throwers. So I mean, I think they're just kind of like whatever like just just fill a space just be just be a body out there gotcha so that's fun good for her yeah it was fun uh some other stuff that happened this week uh i'm trying to think what do you want brad you want a story about the duckworths do you want uh the story about harrison's proposal this morning or do you want a good old story about isaac i want all those stories those are all my friends i would like to hear all of them okay the story about Harrison's proposal this morning, or do you want a good old story about Isaac?

I want all those stories. Those are all my friends. I would like to hear all of them. So let's start just in chrono or in order of what you said, Duckworth first. Okay. So Emily told me the story today and it's great, especially once you know, the context of Gunner, you guys have probably heard us call him discount Duckworth. Oh my gosh. Do you know about this? If it's the same one I'm thinking, it's gotta be. Dude. Yeah, go ahead. Okay. So I was was gonna tell you about this story too. I didn't know if we should say it on the air, but you think it's good enough? If she told you, then I

think it's good. She told Catherine. She didn't tell me. Okay. I mean, maybe we don't need to say the price. No, we gotta say the price. Okay. Emily and Gunnar want to get some nice pictures done emily follows this girl on instagram yeah they want some like you know we just had a baby pictures i believe is

the technical term hey guys you had a baby it's a girl we had a baby it's a delaney yeah great commercial and so uh emily's got this girl in kansas city who's a photographer and her photos do look great she showed me instagram like no wonder you wanted to go with her and so she's talking with the girl look we just want like five photos like we are not very high maintenance like we just want some nice pictures of us and our kid girl's like great three hundred dollars and he's like okay three hundred dollars for five photos Catherine told me the story she's like three hundred dollars is a great price for like good quality photos and I was like really that's kind of high to me i mean but if you're professional like it's like that's probably not one disrespect yeah the photographer but but at the same time i see the other side of it's like

all i want is five photos that cost me 300 right 60 bucks for yeah whatever yeah and the whole reason emily even told me the story was because i was kind of sharing about how easy i find photography like were you nervous to take pictures uh and i was just like nah you're just snapping but you know you can't really screw up i don't know i was like i'm sure if you really know what you're doing but having good gear is half the battle anyway and so emily's like speaking of photography so she's telling me all this and she was like so we get the pictures done and then she emails me and is like here are the photos let me know which ones you want in accordance with the investment guide and he's like investment guide and immediately i stopped i was like whoa not good if they're using the i word investments

doesn't sound like a one-time purchase you know i don't know what i've never heard of an investment guide and she's like we look at this thing and i mean just everything is like just more money on top of what we've already spent you know and all of them are like almost per photo you know there's right and anyway what they ended up going with was 10 photos for an additional 900 and that was the minimum that was what yeah that was like this is the cheapest option yeah there's only like 300 more for like all the photos and emily's like so i tried to convince, yeah, that was like, this is the cheapest option. She's only like 300 more for like all the photos. And Emily's like, so I tried to convince Gunnar and Gunnar's like, no.

Like we'll get like a hundred more photos for just like 300 more bucks. And Gunnar's like, no, we are spending as little money as possible. Well, did she also tell you, I heard my version of the story, which is not from the duck's mouth, is that Gunnar,

which is exactly what I would have done. I would have said, Gun have said gunner said like okay we're not we're not ordering these photos then because they paid 300 and then he's like we're not because it was a minimum 900 extra dollars and gunner's like no we're just we're just gonna have to eat that price and whatever and i i said as katherine's telling me this i was like that's what i would do and she i would never of course like what and i was like i would i would do that and i would try to find somebody else who knows a little bit about photography and be like hey i'll give you 200 dollars to take a picture take pictures for an hour with me or whatever and just send me those

like and but katherine's like i mean they already got these it's you know whatever uh and so that's what gunner said and then emily of course is like no i think we should do this that's so funny this is like the fourth time today where i've been the woman in someone else's relationship. We're like, that's what I would have done. And the girl's like, thank you. You're like, I get it, girl. Yeah. So anyway, yeah,

they said there was a pretty, pretty heated argument back and forth. So it ended up being like $120 per photo that they spent, which is just, when you put it that way, it's like, geez. And you know Gunnar is just like,

just fuming about it. i told emily i was like just struggling well show me the photos i mean you spent this much money you should you should have came into this party with a powerpoint prepared you have like a like a sticker on the side of your car that has oh yeah wear a shirt with it on it i mean get your money's worth phone background airdrop it to me i'll put it as my phone background let's all do that let's get all the ghosties to put Delaney as their picture and just tag them that'd be so funny okay if they post if they post the pictures to Instagram because Gunnar listens to this podcast so he'll know whether or not it's a good idea for him to

do it if Gunnar posts them to Instagram we're going to like somehow share this share your story to the ghosties and you guys all have to like yeah tag them in your story because i know they've been tagged in the photographer's photos but i don't think gunner and emily have posted it yet but um yeah whenever they post it we just have everyone just repost it like love this baby great photos totally worth it help them get their money's worth to reshare their photos honestly gunner and emily are probably private so like no one could even like see the photos but whatever yeah then again though gunner loves you know uh dm and tyree kill all the time yeah maybe he's not private who knows

either way so yeah that was my discount duck for a story i was like dude that sucks and emily said they got the email they found out when they were in easter uh service and she's like the ride back from church she was like it was me and gunner and my mom and she's like the ride back from church she was like it was me and gunner and my mom and she's like it was just not ideal well that's the thing is that gunner is so chill about almost everything yeah like nothing really phases him like yeah except for finances can really spending too much money but then again like i've never really experienced when he spent a lot of money like like usually he just is like no he's like very chill about he's just like no i'm just not gonna do that or i'll come but i'm not gonna spend he ever spends the money i'll just i'll just

sit there with you guys like no problem um so anyway that's funny good times yeah i yeah just talking to katherine about it i was like no i totally see where gutter's coming from i would do the exact same thing because like i think i believe from not out of the duck's mouth but out of katherine's mouth emily signed the agreement beforehand she's not reading the thing that said nine hundred dollars extra or whatever so because technically it was in an email but it was like an attachment it wasn't like in the email body like it was the investment guide was attached and she never clicked on it she's like i mean we've already paid what's this investment guy it's probably just saying like we have to pay for yeah i know i already did it okay harrison um so yeah i hope i'll make sure and ask it's okay with harrison that we share all this and

i'm sure they'll probably post good times podcast guys harrison's podcast i really enjoyed last week's episode so check it out what they talk about? So it was kind of a great mixture of two different things. So it was, so Harrison has this podcast with his friend, Matt. But then they had their third friend on who they knew from college. But Harrison knew him from like childhood, like middle school, maybe elementary school. Oh, it was like, who knows Harrison best? No. Oh.

No, it wasn't like that. But it was, they just kind of reminisce some about their childhood so it was really fun like hearing them talk about like playing baseball in the backyard and uh how like daniel i think it was harrison's friend you know they used to have those like tiny little novelty bats remember those bats yes and they were all the rage yeah yeah scott and i would play those all the time. Yeah. Daniel and Harrison were one time playing in Harrison's basement and like had one of those bats like make a huge hole in the wall. They like reminisce about like trying to hide it with some bookcases and stuff and how Harrison's dad got really mad. Anyway, but then Daniel is also a sports chiropractor.

And so they talked for like 45 minutes, an hour about all these different things within the chiropractic sports medicine world. And it was very, very interesting. Cool. What was the word I was trying to go for instead of intriguing. It was intriguing. It was, it was, it was very engaging. I really enjoyed it. So I texted Harrison. I was like, this is your best one yet. So really enjoyed listening to him. I would highly recommend checking it out, but cool. So yeah, Harrison proposed this morning yesterday harris and i are talking about it and you know kind of going over how it's going to be you know it's like gonna propose outdoors it's supposed to rain doesn't really have a plan b you know it's like whatever fine he's i mean the notebook was hot oh my gosh all the swans dude my goodness yeah uh and he's like well another thing i've been

thinking about i was like i should probably get like a photographer and i was like yeah yeah you got an investment guide for that thing and so i was like dude i would love to do it that'd be so fun let me do it and so was he like was it one of those things where he's like yeah i should probably get a photographer do you know anyone with like a sony a7iii i don't know i don't know if anybody like you don't you don't have anybody probably wouldn't that's like available tomorrow like whenever i said like are you doing anything tomorrow like you said nothing like you know anybody that's available tomorrow like they just like really like right or am i being crazy like i should probably get some pictures of this do you think like do you think abby you know you've known abby for a long time

do you think she would want high quality pictures she's a fan of remembering like things like this or i mean gosh but who who would be available i'm trying to think who i know that i could get in touch with in such short amount of time yeah i don't know i mean oh my wait i could do it does your does your video camera thing also just do like like like still videos like just like the ones that just don't move stagnant video stagnant videos i have stagnant video function stagnant video mode i'll i could do it dude but hey only if you want to man only if you want to no i could i could do it you you said probably probably like a thousand bucks though. Like minimum, right? You wouldn't do it for free. No, totally. No, I would.

Really? I would have to pay for film though, right? It's a digital stagnant video. Oh, a DSV. DSVR, that's what they call them? DSVRs, yeah. Or mirrorless, yeah. DSVRs.

Okay, so anyway. I truly was happy to i was like dude let me do it anyway that's gonna be way more casual like if you hire someone like it's just gonna be so they're gonna make a whole thing out of it so let me just do it and um so to prepare and maybe we had that conversation a couple nights ago i don't know but to prepare we all it was funny because i was like we should probably all we had like roommate uh dinner together Thursday night. Nice.

I got a whole plate of Mexican food spilled on my lap. That was kind of fun. I've heard of people and me ranchito. They just like spilled and tripped and just like all of Isaac's food was in my lap. So that was a bummer. Well, you said that was funny to me. Me ranchito. Yeah.

You really go for the tea on there. Me ranchito. Me ranchito. We always say me ranchito. Me ranchito. Me ranchito. Me ranchito. Me ranchito. We always say me ranchito. Me ranchito. Me ranchito. Me ranchito. Me ranchito.

Hey, do you mind passing those cool ranch Doritos? Anyway, that's too bad. I remember Megan Pavelka. I don't know if you still listen to the podcast, but she would always give me her time because I enunciated too much. Really? Just in general? Yeah.

But I think especially the T, the end of my words. Are you an exactly guy? Exactly. Yeah. Well, one thing I noticed is you Are you an exactly guy? Exactly. Yeah. Well, one thing I noticed is you say photography. Photography? Yeah. You said it earlier.

Give it, give me a sentence or I say it. Photography, photography, photography. Videography is fun, but I've heard photography is even easier. Oh, I love photography. Really? That's funny. I don't, I don't hear myself saying that, but that's what it sounds like. You're doing better.

Photography, photography, photography, photography. Hey, have you ever gotten in like photography? Is that it? That's great. I think, I think you're doing fine, but I didn't say that before. Photography. Yeah. I was, no, it was because we were talking about your, your pet business that you're

taking your photography. If you are with the minks and the monk fish. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Photography. Yeah. Or the one with nelly furtado she's great anyway miranchito miranchito harrison oh basically roommate dinner night then we're like i need to get ready for uh saturday let's watch american sniper because i need to like you know just different angles i thought harrison was saying this and i was like no no i needed to get ready sure so i was like let's put on american sniper i go downstairs and harrison just put on shooter so almost

yeah you know i've never seen shooter neither had isaac or spencer it was so fun dude i feel like that movie every time i go home it is on tbs or something it's always on direct tv it had a it gets good residuals i think it is i love that or something it's always on direct tv it had a it gets good residuals i think it is i love that movie and it helped out because so rachel came with me to help shoot um harrison abby this morning and i used tactics from shooter there's a second shooter there was a second shooter yes uh because in the movie they're like he's having nick memphis like go from like position a to position b nick memphis that's the character's name there's no one with the last name Memphis.

Maybe. No. Okay, and so I was like, Rachel, this is position one. Okay, we're here when they're about a half mile away. When they get close, we need to advance. We need to be in position two. Love it. And then our final position is position three.

Okay. We're in the military. It was so fun. Well, we start to see them come. We've been checking their location all day. And it's like, okay, here it comes. About three minutes. And out of nowhere, a photographer and a couple are coming up exactly where Harrison and I have planned where he's going to propose.

That's position three. That's Harrison's only position. It's position three where I'm going to be shooting. Right. And we're just like, oh, my gosh. We're like looking left, looking right. Just like going back. Oh, my gosh.

Oh, my gosh. Yeah. Airstrike. Yeahrike yeah we gotta get him out of there yeah and so rachel's like should i go tell him i was like i get i guess i'll stay here just yeah would you mind like going and yeah like asking him okay i'm gonna go she goes to cross the street not even almost gets hit by a car i was like rachel still still look both ways we found out harrison says later he could see it and we were in the car and harrison goes rachel i saw you almost get hit by that car so it's like dude thanks for paying attention what and so rachel and she crossed the street she runs over there she's like hey i which rachel hates doing stuff like this you know but she's like i'm so sorry to bother what looks like such a fun

because they're taking like engagement photos like the moment has already happened they were like yeah they're engaged they're engaged to save the date they are like like pretending to have the moment that Harrison Abbey are about to have right now. You're going to like reenact it or I don't know, you know, just like taking photos. Yeah. You know, there's like we're engaged. We're doing stuff. And so Rachel's like, I'm so sorry.

But like. Our friends are coming here to propose right now. There's, you know, a photographer over there. Like, would you mind just like it'll take five minutes, just like shooting somewhere else and come back. And I can tell that this conversation is not going well from across the street. I'm like, this body language does not look good.

Yeah. And Rachel said they were just kind of paused. Like, I mean, it'll be a few minutes. And Rachel's like, okay, well, like you see those people like right there, like they're walking down like right now. And like, it's just a really, like it's a surprise.

And like, this is the moment we have. And they're they're like i mean can we just like take a few more pictures and we're just like okay thank you and she's like i don't even know why i said thank you they didn't do anything and so we were like freaking out we're like these people right here whatever and uh eventually they moved away at the last second harrison abby walk up and uh it was so cool to see like such a cool moment abby never saw us position three was clutch let's go and yeah and like this big cloud came over so overcast better for photos right it looked phenomenal just the first time

you've engagement photoed I engagement photoed I've engagement furthered one other time and engagement videoed one other time I think but yeah this is really fun and yeah it was abby so expressive that it made it extra fun too like afterwards she's just like freaking out and like i've only

ever seen people text the word eek abby was saying eek out loud she'd look at her hand she'd go eek it's like that's just so cute and hilarious great the first thing she said so they're like across this like body of water so we meet up with them after the moment like congratulations you guys abby says to us like do you think sophie's mad i'm not at her shower because that was planned this morning like you said katherine was supposed to be going to that so it's so funny that she's like still mindful i'm like well i mean i told sophia i was gonna be there i'm not there that's like yeah sophie knows it's okay i include sophia everyone knows yeah yeah so it was so funny also which i don't know if i'm telling harrison story for him i think he

wouldn't mind people here but you know he was saying abby was so funny like now he's taking her to the engagement party and abby but he's having to lie to her still like yeah we're going to um boulevard brewery and abby the whole time he's like this is not the way to boulevard what are you doing and harrison has to keep his mouth shut and he's just wanted to be like abby based on what today has been don't you think something don't you think something might be up? Did he say that? I don't know if he said it, but that's how he shared it to me. He was like, don't you just think like me?

Just, you know, just as. Oh, that's. I got this. Yeah. Abby's just like, this is not the exit. What are you doing? And like this engagement party with their whole family and everything. So, yeah, it was fun.

Two things. One, did Abby tell Harrison that she would at least pay for some of the wedding or did he, uh, kind of like she told you about Harrison's birthday party? I mean, you shouldn't have to pay for everything. What's the guy's name? Uh, your roommate. Oh, Louis Davis. Hey, Louis Davis. Uh, there's a story that Jake told about Abby and Jake, uh, doing a party for Harrison and Abby's like, well, I figured Jake, you would have to pay for the whole thing. So that's what I was referencing right there. Cool. Cool. That was number one. Number two is whenever we went and played basketball for Gunner's birthday, Lewis,

we played basketball for Gunner's birthday and we had popsicles at the end. It was awesome. Jake loved it. Abby was there along with Harrison. As we were leaving, I say this to everybody, every, I say this to you. You were so dude, I know I, I was in my head, dude. I, I say this to everybody, every, like I said this to you, you were so dude, I know I, I was in my head, dude. I, I go,

all right, bye Abby. See you soon. And I, I, she, she kind of looked at me like, okay,

see you Brad. And I even said it to you. I was like, see you soon, Jake. Like, and you like being the friend and the person that you are. And the fact that we do see each other all the time,

you're like, wait, are we doing something tonight or something like tonight what are you soon we talk about you weirdo and i was like i don't know i just i just like saying that like whenever we were really into pickleball i think i would literally say i see you tomorrow see you tomorrow like just just hopeful thing like wishful thinking about hey i hope i see you tomorrow those are the days yeah um and so you kind of called me out on it abby didn't but but abby's kind of a like awkward goofy person sometimes anyway and so the way she kind of called me out on it abby didn't but but abby's kind of a like awkward goofy person sometimes anyway and so the way she kind of like okay see ya and everything i was like oh my gosh she knows i ruined it she knows she's about to get engaged and i'm going to this engagement party for

her and she's read the whole thing and i was just like dude you saying see you soon did not tell her any of those things she has no idea two days later i was like harrison did you notice how i said see you soon to her i biffed it like dude i biffed and beefed so hard like oh i'm so sorry i ruined it all for you didn't i like did she talk to you about it already did you guys already get engaged i've seen really harrison's like no see you soon did not but the way she reacted to see you soon just it it messed with me man i was giving brad a hard time like he's so nervous he's like i just said see you soon but if we were like somehow able to go back in time and see what he said the transcript actually said like all right abby have fun getting engaged next saturday and did she give me this weird look she's like yeah

okay brad it's like yeah you didn't say see you soon. No wonder you feel so nervous. This three is really going to be good for you. You spilled the beans, dude. Spilled the biffs. Anyway, I forgot that you were so nervous about that. I said to you soon. I was like, I had thought about it multiple days after I was like, I even, I almost texted Harrison. I was like, dude, if Abby asks anything, the words I use were see you soon. I'm really sorry about it. Hopefully I didn't give it away because I don't see Abby very often. And so maybe it's just one of those things. It's like Texans or South Southern people say drive safe. All right, be safe.

I say get home safe. I'm like, OK, I was planning on it. But luckily it was good. The secret lies with Charlotte. That's right. As they always say. Last little story. Yeahaac so one just love the time management skills and i don't blame him i'm right there with him but just

procrastinator to the max he's got to make two kennels in one night he's like all right it's an all-nighter um so he's he's just working all night at about 5 a.m he uh blows a fuse so he's got to go down to the breaker box the breaker box is in new roommate spencer's room so he's like okay i'll go downstairs like i think i can do this without waking him up but like isaac's like me like worst thing you could do to a human would be wake them up when they're sleeping you know i just hate it breakers are loud they can be loud there's no there's no like like with a light switch you can kind of like very you can ease it up breakers like like when the breaker yeah when the breaker switches,

it makes a noise. Yeah. He's like, all right, I think I could do it. So he goes to open the door and Spencer's door is locked, his bedroom door. And so Isaac's just like,

dude, why are you locking your basement bedroom door? You know, like why? Sure. And so he's so frustrated. So he starts having to like pick the lock. So he's like, it's 5 a.m. He's trying to pick the lock. He can't get it so he's like it's 5 a.m he's trying to pick the lock he can't get it he's like making all his noise i guess it wakes spencer up so spencer opens the

door to see isaac on his knees just looking up at him and he's like dude i'm so sorry so isaac was on his knees at 5 a.m once isaac told me he was on his knees i was like that's hilarious you're just getting eye level with the door just trying to like be so quiet so he gets that gets back to work and um yeah i didn't see him i got home at like probably 11 a.m from something and i just pulled up i'd been sitting in my car about 30 seconds when isaac gets there and i was like oh dude you're still here so he was supposed to leave for fort worth like 9 a.m i was like what are you doing he's like well i went to drop off the first kennel and the dog was too big. I was like, dude, what?

He's like, they just I don't know. They just told me the wrong dimensions for their they just thought their dog was smaller than it was. I was like, dude, I'm so sorry. That's brutal. And then I was like, hey, got you something. No. Earlier that morning, I went to go get donuts.

Donuts sound good. I was like, you know what? Why not get a dozen? And so I had about nine donuts left over and I give him to Isaac. Second time he's been on his knees that day. I don't know what kind of night he'd had. I've never seen him more thankful in my life. It was like how you read in the Bible,

like what people, how they reacted when they saw Jesus, dude, he falls to his knees in the garage. And so it's like kissing the box. I was like, dude, easy.

You're making this an idol. Oh, he slammed the donuts. And he had slept at all. Yeah. No, he definitely didn't. Yeah. Well, anyway, he, he still isn. You're making this an idol. Oh, he slammed the donuts. And he had slept at all. Yeah. No, he definitely didn't. Yeah. Well, anyway, he he still isn't done with the second kennel.

So he's like, I was like, so what are you gonna do about this? He's like, well, I'm going to do something I've never done before. I was like, oh, he's like, we're going to load up the truck. And I'm going to bring all the materials I need to make a kennel. I thought he was going to say he was going to make it in the bed of the truck. Luckily, that wasn't his exact plan. I thought he was going to get some battery-powered tools and make it in the truck. Sure.

But he's like, when we get to Fort Worth, I'm going to make it in Jack Reeves' driveway and just drop it off the next day. I was like, dude, there is no way you make it down there without forgetting at least one tool or one item or one thing of paint. I was like, you're going to paint i was like this is you're gonna laugh about this one day when you're like really established and doing this no i don't know if he's ever gonna be established because he's gonna have this kind of time management do you know that one was for me like that sale was like like on ellis custom creations oh maybe i shouldn't

have spilled the beans then no it's fine he told me it's just yeah it just kills me when he's like just just make it a day earlier like just have like it's one of those things where it's like just have it a little bit earlier dude i can't say anything though like i'm i'm such a procrastinator and i haven't grown out of it yet so it's like i dude i get it unless until he gets like a co-worker and has some like built-in accountability i think i don't blame him i think it's so hard well i'm kind of that i guess you know because because every so every once in a while like i will get sales basically for him and then i take like a binder fee basically yeah and so that was what this was and he's like yeah that's perfect

i'll coordinate it whenever i'm like going down there to visit my friend you know whatever and i get i get a message from the client last night like an email that was like fyi isaac said he was running late tonight uh you know, driving down to Fort Worth. So they're going to deliver it tomorrow. Little did they know. He's running late. He's running late. What a goob.

I loved it. What a goob. I can appreciate like the hustle and everything. He works really, really hard. Yeah. Because obviously, no matter what time he started, he worked 12 plus hours probably in a row. Oh, yeah. You know, maybe more. Yeah. He did put plus hours probably in a row. Oh, yeah. Yeah, maybe more.

Yeah, he did put in the hours. Right. But just like, man, if you space this out, your life would be so much easier. Yeah. Yeah. But I do the same thing with videos. We've all done it. Yeah.

I still find myself doing it sometimes. I'm like, how did this happen? Because even when you're trying not to do it, it happens. So it's like you can't blame anybody for that happening sometimes, especially when you're an not to do it, it happens. So it's like, you can't blame anybody for, for that happening sometimes, especially when you're an entrepreneur. Yeah. But it's awesome because it's work that you actually enjoy doing. So it's like, like, yeah, this is not the most, I would rather be sleeping right now, but if I had to do anything, I'd rather work twice as long doing these kinds of stuff, these kinds of things. Yeah. And you know, a corporate job where I'm not enjoying myself at all. And the freedom to truly do it when you want.

True. He's playing a lot of golf. That's the thing is I don't have sympathy for him because I know he's playing plenty of golf. He's doing other things in life. I think he's sleeping in a decent amount. I will say he said no to golf a ton this week. He barely played. This week.

This week he said no a ton because he had a lot to do. I've said no to golf as a lifestyle pretty much but if he if he says no once you know for one week like whoa he must be busy he must be swamped um so anyway that is that anything else brad or should we get to the tail end of this sucker um i do have one email that i think is kind of funny that's funny we got an email from caitlin at nip okay people obviously would have to call her catnip right yeah that happens because caitlin with the c um she said how do you from the lone star state i wanted to call myself a long-time listener um you're funny caitlin i'm just gonna keep going but um my husband and i

closed on a house today sorry for the the flex. She says. And as soon as we walked into the title company office, we were greeted by a very tiny shaggy dog wearing a bow on her head. Kind of weird to see a dog in an office, but she was cute. We didn't think much of it until we left. And my husband said, guess who's listed as a staff member on this paper. It was the dog listed as number two, right after the head honcho boss lady. And therefore before all the human staff was Shatsy, the marketing officer i don't know whether to laugh or groan but i bet you two could delight in it or roast this with great aplomb um i'm attaching photo proof and so yeah literally like it's kathy miller and then there's shatsy shatsy is an awful name for a dog it's a

it's a nasty looking dog honestly i don't i i don't know what kind of dog shatsy. Shatsy is an awful name for a dog. It's a nasty looking dog, honestly. I don't know what kind of dog that is. Shatsy? Like Shasta? Yeah, you see that? Oh, yeah. It looks like a dog that would be in the shows, like Best in Show. This is a dog that doesn't do much other than it gets its fur shampooed and that's it.

I'm not sure if I'm familiar with that movie i know it's reese it's reese reese spoon um but it is a good point like that she makes like how demoralizing would it be to have like your picture after shatzy yeah especially when like like shatzy didn't start there and so it's like you have to talk to the graphic design person who's in the photo right like hey we are going to be switching some things on our um on our letterhead and of course our our website um you know my dog shatsy obviously is there any way you could kind of put her right after me right and just kind of move you move you down like this woman third in line kim hill she's the escrow

have sent us on Instagram. That's a good one. Uh, because it happens every once in a while. Not, and it's not even like a annoyed thing. It's like, cause it's, it's fun that you guys think of us and send us this, but every once in a while, it's like one thing, something goes viral, a bunch to us. Yeah. And the newest one is, uh, this worship leader who like, have you seen this? The one that's like, he kind of, he's like singing, like kind of improvising in between songs. He's like, you know, whatever. God, we thank you for this.

We, I don't remember exactly how it goes because I've only watched it once, but I've seen so many people send to us, but eventually it gets more and more ridiculous as far as like admitting this sin. Like, uh, you know, you know, God, oh yeah. Yeah. This tax fraud or something like that. It's like, yeah. Like slow instrumental music. And it's like, God, we just, you know, we want to lift you up in our times of weakness, our times of trouble. Right. You know, when we cut someone off on the freeway, when we, um, lie about being late, when we commit embezzlement, right. You know, and it's like, what's up? You know, it's like when we,

it's funny. Yeah. It's just like, so it gets worse. Yeah. I think I replied to Joel. I was like, that's it. This is a great premise.

Oh yeah. Joel said to us. Yeah. That's right. Yeah. I was like, it's a great premise. Good video.

Yeah. And fun segment idea. Stuff you've all sent. Yeah. That's fun. Cause, cause we really, I truly do enjoy getting your messages and everything.

So anyway, but yeah, anyway, plenty of stuff happened to us. So we're not, we're going to skip voice memos. This podcast is already running long. So let's get right into our reviews of the week, which I know which one mine is. Shout out to Kristen 94.

This is what she said to me and to us. Now to you. I've been a big fan of the talk show for a few years now. Saw Jake on tour earlier this year and ventured to Casey a few months ago for F12. Despite my love for Jake and Brad, my husband never really listened to the pod unless it was at my request but all caps last time we would see john mulaney live and at the end of the show the first thing my husband said was honestly i think jake triplett is more funny than this guy all caps that's what's up that's what's up thank you both for being consistently funny and continuing to get better with every episode each week i assume you've reached peak funny yet I'm always pleasantly surprised to find out I'm wrong again.

Keep doing what you guys are doing. Y'all are the cheese. Lewis. Oh, that's the cheese. Well, that's what's up first. Oh, that's what's up comes from Emily Lemke. A friend of mine went on an actual date with a guy and the guy, no matter what she said, kept saying that, Oh,

that's what's up. That's what's up. That's what's up. And then that's the cheese. I don't even remember what that's the cheese. I mean, you've been to Wisconsin. It's just a phrase that we said like to mean like really cool.

That's a really cool thing. Yeah. I really don't even know where it comes from. Yeah. Somebody comment below the glossary. Yeah, that's right. Uh,

my review of the week is a five-star review from BPW1518, which, of course, BPW stands for? Blowing, pushing, wheeling. They do lawn care. A bunch of verbs. Hey, guys. Oh, it's called Happy Birth. Hey, guys.

Been a fan of both of you for only a short time now. Oh. On episode 30 of Starting From the Beginning, but also making sure I keep up with the current episodes. I wanted to say I'm a few short months away from becoming a midwife. And Brad and Catherine's birth story is one of the best stories we've ever heard. It sure hit the soft spot in my heart. Wait.

Midwives should know that. I don't think that's like a specific spot. That's not where it's called the aorta. Well, and I thought it was the back of the head. That's all for babies. Yeah. Right. Anyway.

Well, the heart in babies is in the head. It starts off up top. You've heard of the phrase the head in the head. That's all for babies. Yeah. Right. Anyway. Well, the heart in babies is in the head. It starts off up top. You've heard of the phrase, the head and the heart with babies. It's just one thing. And that's why they have to tell you, don't shake your baby because you want to shake the heart down. It's like, no, the heart will move on its own. The heart will make its way down.

Yeah. When it, when it's ready. So I'll spot my heart hearing Brad while beaming ear to ear, explaining how he delivered Miss Rose. I cried like a little baby when reflecting on my own life oh being in a birth is the most is the most capital letters yeah amazing and rewarding experience and i truly appreciate his excitement i look forward to many more bursts i'm part of and of course listening to many more episodes from both of you much love shannon hey what up sh up, Shandog?

Didn't know that was a thing. I remember finding that out in Frozen, too, because I thought Elsa was the one singing like the animated character. It turns out that's truly just animated. That's not even a real person.

It was a Dina Menzel. Well, I don't want to like get too far in like technicalities, but that's how every single cartoon is. All the animated ones. That's not even them. Yeah.
