All right, Jake, as we were getting ready to start this thing, I asked Justin, our video editor, who is not here, but is from Wisconsin, what kind of fun facts he wanted to read this week. And he said, Northern fun facts. So here are some fun facts as I googled Northern fun facts about North America. Are you ready, Jake? Yeah. It's the home of the largest island. Technically, Greenland is an island okay okay ready for another one has five regions how fun north central south ice arctic yes actually There's no way. Seriously? Oh!

Wait, oh, Mexico City. Mexico City. Yeah. Okay. Hey, second guess. Mexico City. Yeah. Okay. Hey, Mexico. Got it. Hey, I'm a second guesser. The lowest point is.

Don't take my first answer. First answer is Desert Valley, California. Desert Valley, California is your first answer. Second answer is somewhere in Kansas. No, it's got to be somewhere near the sea. Florida. Everglades. The first answer was right, except for you didn't say it right.

What is the real way to say that? Desert Valley, California. You think it's Desert Valley? Okay, guess not. Sorry. Death Valley. Oh, stupid. Stupid. I knew it. What's the largest country in North America?

I would say Estados Unidos. No, dude! North America? No. By what? Landmass? Yeah. Greenland.

I'm less scared. I mean, if the questions are based in Valley, North America, you're going to be all right. If they don't let my second guess count, then you're going to be fine.

Oh, man. I can't wait to listen back to this and hear how excited you were to get the five regions right. Let's focus on the positives. Was Death Valley the actual right answer? Yes. That's the lowest point in America? Yeah.

In North America. You're right. You're right. In all North America. Wow. Isn't that interesting? The one win there is better than any of the negatives. I'll take that.

It's like Jake's like responding to texts early in the morning. And not like 4 a.m. No, no, that's that early in the morning. That's late. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. It's like, I don't know when this morning starts at 6 a.m.

I think six is when you could officially be up and at them. Maybe 545. Let's say 545. It's the way because you could still be up and at them at 4 a.m. But it's how you preface it. Like, well, you're still up and at them. Yeah, yeah. No, no, no, no.

You can't be at them. You can't be at them. No, it's 6 a.m. It's like, well, you're already up and at them. Yep. Already up and at them. You think you can be at them at 4 a.m.? At 6 a.m. It's like, wow, you're already up and Adam. Yep. Already up and Adam. You think you can be Adam at 4 a.m.? At 4 a.m.

It's like, wow, you're still up and Adam, huh? I think you're only up at 4 a.m. There's no way you're up and Adam. You would say you're still up? Yeah. You're still up? And I'm, yeah, I'm still, I'm working. There's no way you're still Adam.

Adam it? Adam? Where does that come from? Wait, are you joking? This is your Greenland. This is your region. Up and Adam? Yeah, like at A-T and then the next word is like

accent mark E-M. You're up and at them? Yeah. What does that mean? I mean, I get it now, but I'm trying to make you feel stupid about it. I'll be honest. I get it. Up and Adam. Them being the tasks. The tasks ahead. You're up and at them. You're up and at them. Like you're getting after it. Up and Adam. Up and at them. Yeah. Them being the tasks, the tasks ahead. Yes. You're up and at them. You're up and at them.

Like you're getting after it. Up and at them. Up and at them. Yeah. Anyway, you made a table or you were up early. I was up and at them. You're right in the dock. Yeah.

Wrote some stuff. Came home. You know, changed Bo's diaper. You know, normal things. Then went out and made a table. How's Bo pooping? He's getting there to the point where it's like, I think it's time to get potty trained, buddy. Yeah, it's getting gross.

Yeah, I'll be honest. It is. It's like it's like it's like becoming like more adult. You know, like newborns from tadpole salamander. Yeah, a little bit older.

It's like, yeah, you're starting to eat solids. And now it's like, OK, you had Taco Bell. Yeah, we're starting to see solids. Yeah, absolutely. So anyway, yeah, had a little bit of time with them. And then talk to him about that. Yeah, we're starting to see solids. Yeah, absolutely. So anyway, yeah, I had a little bit of time with them.

Have you talked to him about that? Yeah, big time. Oh, yeah, dude. He's like so talkative these days. He's so fun. Cool. My kids are so fun, dude. I I wrote down on my doc like I'm so excited for the summer.

Like it's summer. It's been I mean, yeah. Who's not excited for the summer in general? But I don't know. It's been Eastern Hemisphere people. Yeah, not people that don't get up slash Adam. But it's been wonderful weather even the last like week that's a little narration for you and uh you know just being outside like they've come out and they've played and they're like at the perfect age right now like five and two like that they play together really really well i don't

know it's just been wonderful like it's just been like they're so fun i think you told me off the podcast and i would really you should say it on the podcast is that visual you had Hattie was biking around boat like Bo was on top of the bike with Hattie yeah so Hattie has a tricycle I didn't get to see it but yeah Hattie has a tricycle and you know like on the back of the tricycle they have those little like step thing like yeah and so Bo gets on that step and puts his shoulder or his hands on Hattie's shoulders. And then they just ride around the driveway. And the whole time, Bo just goes, bye, bye. That sounds like just Americana. That's great.

It's wonderful, dude. Oh, yeah. And then there's Catherine, you know, over on the side doing some planting of some flowers or something. You know, there's Rosie just, you know, sleeping just peacefully. And then there's me working with my power tools. You ever made the joke because I've heard newborn smell good. You ever stop and smelled the Rosie? You done that one yet? I have not. Has anyone done it to you? Nope. No one has stopped

or smelled Rosie. I think you need to do that whenever you get up and out. It'll be hilarious. Maybe we should. No, I don't know. Um, anyway, yeah, made a table and then had some lunch and headed out over to shoot i always want to say film or record but i'm trying to say shoot okay because that's what cool people say thanks um but yeah cool great day so far great day full day yeah i went to the i made an instagram story been a while made one today you're a pro dude got a fish instagram stories i was trying to tell Rachel last night. I was like, because there's so many things. It's like, yeah, before you met me.

And then just fill in the blank. And just, you know, so many things were different. But I was like, I used to be really into like Snapchat stories, Instagram stories. I made them all the time. I would just find all these little things. And there's not much to a story. It's just you have a beginning, middle and end. And I was like, I want to make an Instagram story tomorrow.

The beginning is like, guys, I'm looking for a fish. The middle is me finding the fish. The end is showing it on camera. Lindsay's on the fish. Yeah, it's so easy. People loved it. Oh, yeah. Little tip for you guys.

Storytelling. Go back to elementary. Tell us about going to get the fish. So it's a place that I first found out about from Catherine years and years ago because she went and bought an octopus from there for a K-Life game we were going to play called Ultimate Squidby. It's the first iteration of Squid Game. Yeah, everyone's done it.

You've all heard of it. It's just where you play Ultimate Frisbee, but with a dead octopus. Gotta love youth ministry. Yeah, it is. It's fun to see the participation that you get in a game like Ultimate Squidby. Yeah, because I would say 90% of the men are into it. The eight-year-old boys. Sure.

And then about 10% of the women are into it. The eight year old boys. Sure. And then about 10% of the women are into it. And I think it's that high. I don't know. There's just like a couple of tomboys and a couple of girls who grew up with brothers who are like, yeah, let's play. Sure. And it is fun to see it flying through the air. But yeah, so I knew they had just like some some wild animals out there.

So I went and got after it and didn't know what i was doing i mean just trying to order fish and yeah you know this guy where there's a little bit of language barrier i don't know what's going on you know i'm just like catfish he's like tilapia i was like maybe he's like i've bass i was like that yes yes i understand that you could catch those things yes i will take bass because explain why you were getting over maybe. So this morning we shot a video with the girls channel. Girls Gone Mild and multiple videos, one of them being a dating apps video. And so often, at least from the girls perspective, they said that they see guys holding up fish and they're dating at pictures.

It's just like more common than you think. Yeah. So I wanted to poke fun of that. I was like, it's one thing to just say like, all right, brace yourself for some fish pics. I was like, how it just is a little cherry on top to like have it's not a live fish but it is a at once living fish like you could see the scales just died yesterday right and just like flop it around and um i just thought it would add something to the video and you're just probably not gonna see it coming it's like oh my gosh they used a real fish for this so i got

there right as you were wrapping up the filming of this video, unwrapping the fish, but wrapping up the video. Yeah. In the last scene or last, whatever it was, you went out to your car to get the fish, which I thought was hilarious, but you had a valid reason. You were like, I'm trying to defrost this fish. I want it to look real. It was thawing out because I saw it and I was like, dude, you put it in your car to just like bake it's in the trunk it's still gonna smell it's gonna smell the trunk did it smell later when you um no i didn't notice it okay good um we should have put in trays trash can no i just of course we shouldn't have jake but that would have been funny no um no it would not have brad no no no no no come on anyway but you guys went downstairs to film this last thing.

And I stayed upstairs to like get some extra stuff done on my computer. And I could just hear a few different things that I wrote down. One of them was it's not slimy. It's fine. These are all from Jake talking because Lindsay was not having it. I at one point I yelled at her. You're from Wichita. You're from Beverly Hills. That was my last thing.

So and then you said it's not alive. Cause of course it's not alive. Okay. So I opened the mouth. Like it's looking at you as sealed shut. I was able to like, open the mouth up. And then she freaked out. Like she thought it was alive. And I was like, it's a dead fish. All right. It's a dead fish. It's very dead. Yeah. Even, even if it were alive when you bought it, it's dead now after being in your car. It's not a magic fish. That we know of. And yeah, the last line, my favorite line was, you grew up in Wichita.

You're not from Beverly Hills. Like how, scale of one to 10, how genuinely frustrated were you? Because it sounded like you were getting perturbed. Oh no, I really wasn't. I think that's just a product of, I've known Lindsay for like nine years now. Yeah. So it's just like one of those things like Lindsay, come on. Okay.

This is the last scene of the video. I know you're not that, you know, scared by this. So. Cause I was there with her. I was like, I would not be comfortable with this. I would, I would probably just mind over matter that thing and be like, give it to me. But I would, I'd be squirming. A dead fish.

I don't know. I know. It's just, it's, I'm, you know, me and animals. It's weird around animals like like when I had to like like like shovel up that whatever it was, a squirrel or a mouse or whatever and throw it in the street. Once again, I hated it. Dead, dead animal. Yeah, I don't know.

It's just a weird feeling. I will say I saw a snake golfing first snake of the year. I was pissed off, Brad. It made me mad. It wasn't like, oh like oh my gosh that scared me it was like gosh dang it really the snakes are out the snakes are out so like i was upset so was it fear though like was it fear that didn't turn to anger it was just like yeah it was fear anger fear anger just back and forth it was like fear of how many of his friends are around here

fear of how many else am i gonna encounter this year playing golf yeah fear of how many of his friends are around here. Fear of how many else am I going to encounter this year playing golf? Yeah. Fear of what's he telling his friends right now? What kind of snake? Was it big, small? Could not be tinier. Okay. But there were two of them.

Oh, yeah. And one of them wasn't scared of us, which was scary. Because every once in a while in the shop, nothing to do with live animals or anything, but I'll have like a close, like close call with an accident and I'll get really, really mad. And it's like, like, that's my anger. Like, I think I, I think I'm a little bit fearful. And then that fear turns into like, Oh, I'm, I'm very angry right now that that almost happened. That you almost like made a boo-boo with yourself. Yeah. That I almost cut off my finger or

something, you know? Yeah. I think I'm just like mad at the situation of like, why aren't you being more careful? Like you have kids that you need to feed and all this stuff. And so anyway, I didn't know if that was similar. Like you saw this thing and you're like a little bit freaked out and then you're like just mad and like, okay, that's it. It was like a reminder that snakes exist. I think that's why I was mad.

I was like, dang it. I forgot about snakes. This sucks. Do they have a purpose? I'm sure they do in the ecosystem, but like Hawaii is doing just fine without them. That is a great point.

Hawaii is great. Hawaii is thriving and they have zero snakes. What do snakes do? I mean, they eat mice, which is great. They eat mice, but cats will eat mice. That's true. I'd OK, I'm going to put my stance out there right now. I'd rather have cats in this world than snakes.

I think and I am I'm thinking of everything. Yeah, I thought of everything. The only reason snakes around us is, I think, for like boots and purses and like, you know, like snake skin. Just like nice fashion. Just the outside of them. Gotcha. Which is very cool.

And if we didn't have snakes, then where would the superhero Venom come from? Yes. Could be a villain. I don't even know. I think he's got to be a villain. His name is Venom. Venom. Hey, let's let's get.

Yeah, it's Venom. Venom's here, let's get. Yay, it's Venom. Venom's here. Venom's here, kids. Hey, kids. Hey. Hey, knock off a few minutes early. Venom's here to tell us a bedtime story. The city.

The city has so much crime. Oh, Chicago can rest easy tonight. Put up the Venom sign. Yeah. Yeah. Commissioner Gordon, forget Batman. so much crime oh chicago can rest easy tonight put up the venom sign yeah yeah commissioner gordon forget batman we've got venom that's a sign yes yeah probably a villain oh man how'd we get there talking about your kids oh no this morning fish fish yeah so anyway we shot with the girls for like three hours and then brad came over and then we shot with brad and derrick for another three hours close to two and a half something like that yeah we didn't shoot that long but we were there for a while we hung out

a long time yeah yeah so uh very productive uh maybe shouldn't throw the v word in there pretty productive i'll go pp pretty productive two weeks with trey being gone i feel like i got to play a lot of golf but also we got to crank out a lot of videos and a lot of videos did well yeah that's awesome yeah that's like the best of all worlds i know yeah it's like it's like i can work and play i'm hoping well yeah yeah great yeah it's great you got to play a lot of golf though we gotta play a lot of golf yesterday was a sporty little day for me played golf with my friends and then went straight from there to meadowbrook Park, played pickleball with Rachel. Yeah.

It was awesome. One-on-one? It's so great. She's, yeah, so she played high school tennis. And obviously she played D1 college volleyball. So very athletic. I didn't realize she played high school tennis. And so it's like, yeah, very competitive enough.

Like we can play one-on-one pickleball together. Yeah. It's so cool. I mean, how unique is it? How often do you get to play one-on-one sports with anyone? Let alone your girlfriend. Did she beat you? No.

Never? Once? She has before. Yeah. yeah sure no okay um but because one-on-one's completely different than two-on-two pickleball and yeah she's a lot better at uh singles because you don't have to dink or anything she can just whack it right um and also i've learned like her being a setter the more i've learned about the setter position it makes her so good at like honestly just anticipating like movements and stuff like i never like let's say i lob a ball up to her not once not once have i ever guessed the direction she's gonna hit it or you know like it's 50 50 i could go left right or center and like i'm even gonna like

go right no you know what i'm gonna trick i'm gonna go i never go you know whatever and it never goes to me she's remarkably good at like reading the human body not like that i didn't say it like that okay i didn't say it like that. Okay. I didn't say it like that. I didn't go there. So that was fun. And then we went straight from there. Got a quick little acai bowl.

And then went straight to volleyball last night. Sand volleyball. Wow. We're in a league with Isaac and some friends. You winning? Sporty little day. We did win last night. Okay.

It was nice. It was nice to see the other team make some mistakes. Yeah. This league's pretty good. Really? Usually it's just us. You guys like the competitive league i don't know what division we're in i didn't sign us up this time so i don't know what we're up to but um you have a fun name i also yeah i don't even know what our name is you just know this like hey come with this time 8 45 show up so yeah it was a good time it was a lot of fun good we got to go to top golf

on tuesday, we did. That was awesome. Open invitation. Anyone in Kansas City? Yeah. Brad and I might be at Topgolf a lot of Tuesdays to come. It was very fun. I get why people enjoy golf when you know how to hit it a little straight every once in a while.

And when you know how cheap it is, I think it makes it more fun. It's like, this is basically free. Like, I mean, seriously, if you go to Topgolf on Tuesdays before noon, I think it's like 75 off or something it's crazy because it's half off on tuesdays all the time and then yeah before noon it's like half of half yeah that would be 75 off i think i mean greenland yeah uh yeah it was so fun we originally it was just gonna be you and me and then we're like i think we can convince scott you texted scott isaac and luke and like you're like yeah scott's in let's do it it's gonna be so fun and then all of a sudden i

Zoe is awesome.

Angelus is the podcast. Heck yeah. What up Zoe? Yeah, they're really fun. Rustin's three year old. It was her birthday and she for her birthday. She wanted to watch dad play basketball. So we had an 830 game gets over at 930.

You know, they live an hour away. They live so far away. And, you know, jokingly, I was like, all right, we'll see you guys at Culver's and, you know, show up at Culver's and who shows up next? The Dowd family. Yeah. I was like, good for you guys. I mean, I bet their three-year-old did not get to bed till 11 o'clock at least. Hey, step in the car maybe. Oh yeah, you're right. Oh yeah. So anyway, it was great though. They pulled the, um, veteran parent move of put their pajamas on, put their kids pajamas on at Culver's, you know, because then if they do fall asleep,

you're good. And then when you get home, either they're asleep or they're already ready for bed and you just put them in bed. So can you put your kid to bed without pajamas? Sure. Okay. I think I might.

You think so? I mean, sometimes, I mean, but then you got, you know, the whole day, like they,

they've been sitting at Hy-Vee arena and the gross bleachers and everything else. I sleep in what I wore in all the time. Does that make me a freak? Not a freak. It just makes you gross. Really? You think, think about it.

Okay. I mean, especially like a Hy-Vee Arena. Wait, I see what you're saying. I see what you're saying. Or like a coffee shop where everyone's sitting on these seats. I don't know. I don't think if you're going to Tray's and Beck, I can get it. Like, that's fine. You're in your car. you're in trey's house you're back if you're going to restaurants and i mean you

take public transit everywhere you go right i'm trying to make it worse what if you give blood that day yeah you go to the plasma bank that place isn't sanitary no csl yeah yeah interesting so you just you just get in bed at night and you there's no like mental block to that like that's not hard for you no way really no way really okay but also it's not like 90 degrees here like i'm not sweating throughout the day like if i have been sweating then yes it's on my mind like these clothes are a little dirty but it's like it's 70 degrees right now okay i could definitely fall asleep in this t-shirt would that be okay with you that i've been wearing all day yeah it'd be okay with me it's it's just i i think i've just changed being married so it would not be okay with katherine i know that for sure if you if you

got in bed with katherine she would not like that she would be like jake you have been wearing that all day and you're not my husband get out out of here. Both those things are red flags for her. Mostly the first one. More than anything. How, what, 12, 14 hours you've been wearing that shirt? Right. Yeah. Gross. Like, there was a few times where I'm really tired and I want to take a nap and I'll get under the covers. Fun.

In the middle of the day and she'll be like, what are you doing? Like, those are your normal clothes. You say, this is my side of the bed. I was stinking up. I was like, who cares? Yeah. I'm over here by myself, you know, whatever. So, uh, yeah, that's interesting. I don't think, I think I did it probably more when I was single, but I don't know. I guess I just got used to it. Um, well that's us in pajamas. Uh, I went to a coffee shop, Brad, that you've been to i've never been there wait you haven't oh you just heard about it yeah i just heard about it oh okay

what do you think so there's this coffee shop by my house called comic coffee um i don't even mind telling you where it is i was gonna say you're gonna name drop it well because you're not gonna find it oh okay on the way here i was like i wonder where that place is and so i tried to look as i was just driving by and i could not find it yeah no sign there's no label on it they have like uh something yeah i mean no there's no actual sign they have like a paper banner or like a i don't know plastic banner out in front of the windows yeah yeah yeah uh it's right next to jumping catfish which that business just keeps finding a way to make it into this podcast. Three weeks in a row.

So it's right next to jumping catfish and it's like comic book themed and dang it. I thought you'd been in there. Okay. So yeah, the backstory that, that I have is that my cousin who owns a like local roastery in Kansas state is called Encore,

Encore coffee. He provides their beans to this, this coffee shop. So he told me about it. What does a bean mean my sister had been there um and i know that it's a husband and wife that own this thing the wife really likes coffee the husband really likes comic books so they're like we should put them together well you know the people no i don't know them okay good good my cousin knows him though like because he

sold them coffee which cousin mike don't know cousin mike he's 50 some years old great he's great guy old cousin old cousin oldest aunt okay okay you know my mom's one of six she's she's the fifth one in line my aunt k is the number one um anyway uh yeah so that's what i know about it my sister has been once and my sister was talking to mike about it and my sister seemed to try to be like diplomatic about it but i could tell in my head i was like this is a bad idea for a coffee shop yeah there's just no like vibe to it it's just like white like school lighting like what a school hallways lighting probably fluorescent yeah um comic book themed things everywhere and uh like what kind of themed like the like the cover of like a comic book is just like all over the walls.

Okay. That's the only thing on the walls. Or is it like? Yeah, it's a lot of the same ones just over and over and over again. Like almost a pattern or? Yeah, just like Superman, Superman, Superman, Superman. That would be the pattern. And then what?

Mainly Superman. And then there is probably a, I don't know if it's a tv or just a little computer monitor computer monitor probably 18 inch computer monitor uh that's playing comics on it like something on netflix i don't know the skip intro button was on it so some like justice league okay comic show is on it where is that where is the monitor um just next to one of the walls is it mounted it's just no no it's like uh i don't know probably two feet off the ground what i'm not making any of this up i'm not trying to exaggerate anything okay and then um i think what else i so isaac was really hating on it i loved my pastry and i will be back really my cherry danish was fire i will go back for that cherry danish okay also do you think this is true

rachel's making fun of me she said that uh ordering a cherry danish is like a very like old person thing of me to do. She's like, I just don't know if any young people are eating Danish's. I don't hate that take. I don't hate that take. I don't think I just don't think we go to very many places that offer Danish's anymore. We don't have

Danish opportunities. No, like these days we go to, I don't know, like normal places that don't have Danish's. When I think of Danish's I think of like Seinfeld. Like I feel like George Costanza loves him some Danish's. But that was obviously in the 80s that that show was going on. And it's in New York.

And he's older now. And, you know, it's a big city. They got lots of Danish's. So I kind of I'm 50 50 on that take. Gotcha. Yeah. That's pretty funny. There's just like no um there is seating but

it's just like it's not cozy it's just like plastic chairs yeah um there's no seating for like three or more anywhere it's just like mano a mano like tables and chairs dude yeah so it was just it was a bummer it was like whoa we have a coffee shop so close to us right like what is this theme was the coffee anything uh i didn't mind it um i get a caramel latte so it's kind of hard to tell the coffee itself but i was like yeah it's pretty good it's good enough for me yeah isaac got an iced vanilla latte and even when it came out i mean it looked like milk i was like oh that's gonna be sweet it looked like he ordered creamer like iced creamer he's like yeah that wasn't very good but i will be back in fact rachel's really excited saturday we got a great saturday ahead of us okay we're gonna walk to comic coffee love it and then it's like what a

mile away probably so close and then uh we saw there's a sign there's like an estate sale uh in our neighborhood state sales are fun you ever been no they're fun we're gonna walk to one of those everything's for sale and i mean everything it's like that to Tommy workup. We don't take no prisoners. No, we don't take no for an answer. We don't take no for an answer. Yeah. And then we were in a pickleball tournament that afternoon. What a Saturday, Brad. Holy cow. Yeah, that's fun. That is fun. What's 2FA security on Kraken? Let's say I'm captaining my soccer team and we're up by a goal against, I don't know, the Burlington Bulldogs. Do we relax? No way.

That's what always bums me out. Is that like, like people, like there's, I live in Shawnee and there's multiple like, um, coffee shops or other restaurants that have come in and just half-heartedly opened like this. Like it's like plastic seating and a tiny little monitor like and i understand it's like expensive especially

i'm sure coffee shops like i think espresso machines are very expensive sure um but it's like it's like then don't do it yet just wait for a sec that's what that's how i feel about it don't do it yet because there there was a coffee shop i don't know two miles from my house that i went to like i was excited this new coffee shop excited to support them and i went and they didn't have any air conditioning they had the doors open like it was like hot summer day yeah what are we san diego yeah nope no i wish uh no yeah no air conditioning and like all the furniture looked like it was bought at goodwill like it was like kind of or or maybe just like was from this woman's house that she put in there like well i had this in my storage unit it's kind of stinky and had some stains on it and like this is

bad yeah it was almost worse than plastic chairs honestly it was like i this just feels like i'm going to like contract something and i said sure don't sleep in it and i order it and i think it was a pretty expensive latte but i was like whatever I get, I sit down and I go to open my computer and I'm like, Hey, uh, what's the, what's the wifi password here? Oh, we don't have wifi. I'm sorry. You must not have heard me. I'm sorry.

I thought that I'm drinking coffee, coffee, coffee, wifi are the best combination. Peanut butter and jelly. They go together very well in America in this current day. Like, like you've never had a jelly sandwich in your life. No, you got to have them together. No. Yeah. Or at least peanut butter and honey.

Which would be coffee and hot spot. Hot spot. Yeah. Give me, give me like, like it was like I, I said, and I didn't know what to say. I was like, okay, thank you. And I walked out of there after paying them $6 for this mediocre coffee and sitting on this nasty, like, you know, orange couch.

And it was just, it was just rough. It was like, oh, like you're, and they went out of business in like three months. It's the same thing. It was like,

it's like, you got to do it right if you're going to do it. You got to have a sign. I'd say have a sign. That's going to help. Yeah. There's some kind of,

yeah, the marketing aspect of it to me is just killer. Cause we asked him like, how long has it been open? He's like a month. It's like, Oh, how long The marketing aspect of it to me is just killing. Cause we asked her like, how long has it been open? He's like a month. It's like, Ooh,

how long, how long does science take to come in? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Whatever. I,

were there anybody else? Was there anybody else that there was one guy in there? He looked sad to say the least. He looked like he might've, you know, like been personal friends with the owners. Like he's doing him a favor. He's like,

I'll come in. I'll patronize it. I think my dad's been before. Really? I would love to see dean in there sometime you got from the news yeah next time if anybody ever sees my dad out in public you have to say are you the guy from fox four go rock chalk guy that was your quote that was your you were interviewed at the ku parade right uh that's so funny katherine got recognized today that's unbelievable out Out at Family Tree Nursery. She was buying some plants and some girl came up to her and she's like, you look so familiar. Catherine's like, oh gosh, I've been to a lot of places. I don't know what this is going

to be. You know, K-Life, church, other things. They lived. Yeah. The girl goes, are you part of a podcast or something? And she's like, yeah, I guess I am. And this girl, I'm sorry, I forget your name now. Denise. I could, I could guess. Samantha. Brittany. Okay.

Veronica. She was really kind though. She said that like our podcast has helped her through some hard times. Cool. And yeah, she just really appreciates us. So it's cool it's cool yeah katherine never been recognized before like that so that is fun um yeah it was pretty pretty cool that's pretty cool yeah um real quick back on the coffee thing i was talking to

isaac legitimately and rachel a little bit too i was like should we start a coffee shop i mean if this like i don't know how are we gonna i mean not that saying it would be easy but like there seems to be a demand for it. Nowhere around us is their coffee shop. So I'm thinking either coffee shop or get back on the ice. I, uh, food truck.

Sure. Um, boat. Cause that'd be fun too. You looked into that. Do you remember how much around like approximately would cost to start that? Yeah. It was one of those things.

Yeah. Uh, where like at the time, well, I don't know. It would be easy to start. it wouldn't be that hard but i'm saying like because i'm trying to think like i think coffee shops would be decently expensive like to start all that stuff like i think all the machines and furniture and stuff whereas an acai truck would not be as expensive obviously yeah no storefront no like monthly yeah cost really yeah you would have to like get a truck all fixed for you or whatever yeah but still one-time purchase and then no like

no lease or anything which would be nice i remember when you were thinking about doing that and i was worried for you because i was like he's just doing so well with this tray stuff why would he like deviate from that and now i think it's not as bad of an idea because i think you might have somebody to help you with it yeah maybe and i also think that there's a huge demand for acai or maybe not huge but i think like people love healthy stuff and like it's hard to get it quickly yeah spring summer and fall anyway i mean people around here would eat it we don't have very many good uh options so yeah i i do think though like a coffee shop would be so hard to mess up if you put enough money into it i think yeah if you kind of know what you have enough like uh wiggle room i could

be wrong if anybody's out there and they're like hey this we tried to do that and it was not good um but yeah i'm sure location is a big part of it too yeah i don't know um yeah we filmed uh filmed a few videos today. Small Town Liars. That was a fun one. I think that was going to be good. Derek loved it. Yeah, that was pretty fun.

There were multiple times in today's videos that Derek had a hard time doing it together. Yeah. Which was always fun to do because then it makes us laugh. Made him giggle. And then we did Types of Guys Around Girls Part 2. But we did it classic style of you know uh we filmed another like long video yeah like a eight minute long video so hopefully you guys appreciate it it's fun we like doing those yeah it was good so um i pulled up a screenshot i forgot i took this last week brad i had talked before about some of these facebook groups i'm in and like how serious um

i think i told you about the pickleball Facebook group I'm in and this guy will write like a daily blog post I kind of forgot about it for a while he's back I hop back in well he's always there I'm back okay so Dane writes the calm before the storm

that'll hook you in like whoa what's he talking about well let's see okay sitting in the airport waiting for my connector to fl florida probably already focused on the u.s open and what needs to happen oh that's a great sentence yeah what needs to happen if i can if i can hit my spots i'll be just fine call before the store it doesn't matter it doesn't matter what the other person is doing. It just matters what I'm doing.

Yeah, what I need to do. So already focused on the US Open and what needs to happen. Gosh, this next. I'm mentally playing tug of war between visualizing future matches and questioning whether or not I worked hard enough in preparation. Dude, got to be careful with the mental tug of war. Well, the sentence right before that, he seemed very confident. And now careful with the mental tug of war. Well, the sentence right before that,

he seemed very confident. And now he's like... I'm focused. Now he's like, I'm back and forth between knowing if I even did enough to be here,

to deserve to be here. Right? The mental tug of war. I gotta get this pinned to paper and just get my feelings out on this. Next paragraph.

The, in quotes, wondering, which, I mean, love that it's in quotes yeah the wondering fuels the fire within the questioning no quotes for questioning the questioning almost makes me focus more intensely on the upcoming goals then we have a few few questions for himself could i have hit 100 more balls yes should i have stretched longer and pushed myself deeper in my yoga poses good question to ask can you imagine he's just like in his basement like come on lower dane dig day come on dig this is for the open come on think about fl which is those toes it stands for floor yeah i want you on it that's right get all the way down

should i have stretched longer and pushed myself deeper in my yoga poses is that like the only physical activity he's doing to like prepare you know it's not like should i've done more reps should i turn more weight he's being limber should i push deeper dude it was so funny i said this to rachel's like you believe this and then like probably three days later i forgot about it um and i was like how was yoga she's like it was good i just don't know if i could have pushed myself deeper in some of those poses um okay next paragraph okay i'm not cutting out a single thing this is this dude's entire post i believe it he really ties it all together here i love this he said i love this he said i love this oh yeah i love this period wouldn't trade a minute i love all of this oh yeah oh yeah just in

case just in case this didn't encompass at all yeah all right let me see if i can just get through it all all right i love this I love all this. The nerves, butterflies, and the feeling that I can't get to the venue fast enough to start practicing with my partners. This in quotes, calm. Well,

last won't be calm for long. Hashtag mental game. Hashtag mindset matters. Good, good Dane. Thanks for the hashtags too. Like, like like i think i think that those are really gonna get the the the post popping that's great within a group too it's good to have hashtags to really you know private group to get permission to be in mindset matters though really hashtag mindset

matters i love this i love all this i love The nerves, the butterflies. Can't get to the venue fast enough. The calm. Won't be calm for long, Brad. Dude, I mean, just this guy. It just took time to type that up. And type something like that up every day about pickleball. It's awesome. I love it, man. Good for him.

Hey. Hey, I love all this. Hey, good for him for finding something he's passionate about. Yeah. And digging, pushing deep. Not digging deep. But most people dig he pushes he just to push deep he doesn't need a shovel he just needs some hands i like it let's

have dan on the podcast sometime dude somebody that i actually do want to get on the podcast or at least like record us having a little interview with them is the pizza guy from f12 oh yeah i forgot about him i think sam peck scott's wife has his number yeah when he coordinated like delivery times and stuff i think it'd be fun to hear his side of the story that's a good point yeah i forgot about that now that it's almost may hey why not yeah um so okay i have a few different things uh you want to hear about Bitcoin mining? Yeah. Okay. So there's a friend of the show.

We call them ghosties. There's a ghostie, Nathan. I'm not going to even say his last name. Nathan, you probably know who you are, who messaged me on Instagram the other day and just was like, he linked me to his post that said, internet investments hasn't been my thing from the start. But when my bro referred me to Augustus Bryan,

a man who's involved in Bitcoin mining, I decided to give it a try. I started out with just $2,000 and guess what? I earned 20,000 profit within five hours of investing in my cash app, blah, blah, blah. I said some more stuff. 2,000 to 20,000 in five hours. In five hours.

Of course, I'm like, that's great, man. Like whatever. And so I didn't know what to say. He like sent me this thing. And like, this is like our, like, we've had like legitimate, like, like, uh, conversations back and forth. He sent me very kind things. And so I'm like, good for him, dude. And so I just responded killing it. I didn't know what to say. Great rate of return, brother. I was like, what do you want me to say? Like, it was, it was odd. It was odd to me, but I was just like, I don't know. Maybe what you say is, Hey, change your password. And he said, yeah. He responds. Yeah. It's Bitcoin mining. And I just responded back. That's wild, dude. He says, yes, I invested and I got that profit. And then I put three exclamation points, freaking rich, bro.

I didn't know what to do. I'm just trying to be nice to this guy. And that's so nice of you. And he goes, yes, bro. Are you interested in it? And then I go, this is where I'm embarrassed. I go, I go, maybe tell me more. No, Brad.

It's hilarious enough that you fell for it. Listen, listen, listen, listen. So, so his original post. Maybe. So, so yeah, of course enough that you fell for it. Listen, listen, listen, listen. So his original post. Maybe. So, yeah, of course. I know I'm an idiot. So the original post, the only thing that was like, it doesn't matter. If this is the only thing, it should be enough of a red flag.

But tell me really quickly what you see that's wrong with this picture. This is Augustus Bryan's profile. Oh. Hmm. I mean, nothing is popping out's profile. Oh. Hmm. I mean, nothing is popping out right away. Okay. First thing I saw, how many followers does he have? 14,000.

Does that look weird to you, the way that looks, though? It's like 14.4, and then there's like a space, and there's a K. Oh. I noticed that immediately, and I was like. That's a good point. I was like, that's a fake thing. That's like been graphic designed. Yes.

That's not like, I see. Okay, good point. Right, and so I saw that, and I was like like whatever but then like i've had like legitimate conversation with this guy i mean it's augustus brian yeah whatever and so i said maybe tell me more he says my mentor runs the mining process so you can send him a message augustus brian i was like i'm not dealing with mentors i've gone down that road i know that works and so i didn't respond to him but now but then about an hour ago, yeah, an hour ago, I saw another, like Catherine's cousin had posted on his story,

something very similar. And so I go, guys, what's up with this? Cause I I'm the first one to hand up. I don't understand a cryptocurrency stuff. So I'm like, is, is it just one of those things I need to get into? I mean, it sounds like they're making a lot of money. I mean, I think I could be making a ton of money here. And Jake's like, no, it sounds like,'re making a lot of money i mean i think i could be making a ton of money here and jake's like no it sounds like uh they got hacked and like somebody has their password and it's in their account and i thought about it for about five seconds and i said yeah you're right why didn't i think of that you know like like it's one thing if it's like a fake account that you know somebody followed you and is dming you yeah it has nathan's photo and like is very similar but the screen name

or username is like way different but this was like his account so i was like yeah this is real it's nathan whatever so that all i have to say i'm i'm not going to be making lots of money with bitcoin with augustus brian but if anyone knows of like a sure thing let us know like if you have like a like a fighter who's gonna like throw the game let us know there was a funny uh an algorithm meme uh based off the duckworth's uh photo thing um photo faux pas yeah last week where it was like the office with ryan it was like would you rather have uh three hundred dollars now or pay me nine hundred more dollars for five more photos later or something like that yeah that was pretty good the facebook page has been great oh yeah it

can't put up everyone get on there if you're not on there also interest to crank out the memes on uh the subreddit so don't sleep on that yeah t push absolutely they're great um anyway so yeah but if you have a shirt thing please send it to us yeah i wouldn't hate money don't hate it wouldn't hate it okay well go ahead next thing okay uh the vultures are circling jake oh yeah i saw them on the golf course yesterday did you did you get peed off uh no no it didn't didn't mind didn't mind them being up there i was just like i wonder what they're what carcass they're after i was working out in the shop vulture circling is a spigot speech not really true uh i was out in the shop i saw actual vulture circling circling yeah yesterday i thought that's what you're talking about oh you're like yes it's that time of year i was like yeah i saw a ton

yesterday that was crazy i thought you meant that it's like that time of year yeah i was like huh i was like huh yeah i lived in kansas city six years guess i never noticed when it was vulture season i never knew that i was like but you know now you mentioned it i did see about six or seven yesterday made a comment about it too look at all these vultures what's going on and then the local guys really seem to care you know i was like that's funny you mentioned that i was just talking i was just talking about all the vultures yesterday. Like, thank you. Let's talk about this.

It's about time. Oh, wow. Okay. Figure of speech. Vultures are circling, meaning somebody's getting close to figuring out something about me. And let me tell you, Jake. Sounds like you're being blackmailed.

This is scary. What did you just say? No, no, no. What's going on? I was working out in the shop the other day. I look up. I have my noise canceling headphones on, so I'm always startled whenever always startled whenever I see somebody look up and there's a bright blue pickup truck out walks neighbor Henry. Okay. Neighbor Henry shakes my hand. He says, Hey, I heard I need to

tell you congratulations. I was like, yeah. What was he's like, I heard you had a baby. I was like, well, how do you know I have a baby oh well ginger follows you on instagram oh oh boy look out ginger because if henry figures out that we've been talking about him on this podcast for the last two and a half years uncomfortable i'm readjusting in my seat i mean he didn't he didn't say anything beyond that i know he doesn't have an instagram account or at least as far as i know of he's not following anything but on my instagram profile it says ghost runners podcast it says gene schwartz comedy so all they have to do is click on one of those things start listening to that for a treat i mean henry yeah henry is one of those guys that he'll go all in on anything so he definitely listened to my podcast if he had it

and so i just i got a little i'm getting a little squirmy thinking about it. This is kind of like blackmail. It's like something out there exists of you and someone might be trying to find it. And it's very like, you could easily, if you're, if you're a mean person out there,

you could figure out which of the Arkansas baseball players is from the city that I live in and probably figure out who's. Hey, Hey, maybe, maybe. Um, anyway,

Henry came by and he's getting really into woodworking which is pretty great um like he's he's he's started going to the guild and i've just learned about henry that henry knows everybody in the world that he ever meets first name like he'll and he'll always refer like reference that every single time he ever sees you so like so like if he meets you he'll be like like, yeah, I was talking to Jake Triplett the other day. He'll, he'll say that to a random person.

That's like, I don't know who that is. Yeah. I mean like, like he walked in and right away he's like, you know, uh,

I don't know how to say his name. Carl Hanratty. You know, you know, Carl, I'll say, I'll say his son's name is

Carl. You know, Carl got, uh, two and a third innings pitched the other day. Yeah. Hayden Paulette.

He just, he just didn't do too well. So, uh, Tintra, Tintra put him in or something, you who are these characters you think i watched the sc network scc network baseball all day henry well you're working and anyway but now he's like talking about the woodworkers guild he's like yeah you know gary melke i mean that guy he's a he's a good helper he he's really good at helping me but then i mean what's what's the deal with craig right what's the deal with craig i mean he's just like looking at me the whole time but i don't think he trusts me like and it's just

so like he's just he's just so in his own head about like the woodworkers guild now really but he's also loving it he's getting really excited i think he trusts me he was telling me the other day so henry uh i think he still works some but he's a civil engineer and i think he's semi-retired but i think he's brilliantly smart like i think he's very good at like math and science. And he's like very scientific about woodworking to the point where I'm like, I don't know what to say to you. You figure it out. Um, it's one of those things where it's like an old man, where it's like, they ask you a question, but they know the answer. It's like, no, Brad, how much, what's, what's your moisture percentage when you, when you make a table?

And I'm like, uh, about eight to 12%. He's like, well, they, they say the 14% is okay. So I'm 14%. Okay, Brad. I'm like, I think that's probably fine. Well, I'm going to go with 14%, Brad. I don't know. You know, it's like, I actually read quite a few articles that said like it used to be eight to 12 and now it's 14 to 16. Actually. You're like, okay. It sounds like you have more of a stance on this than I do. I don't usually usually measure i just know if it's dry or not by when i use it anyway um but he he said that he was getting into a kind of a not an altercation but some some guy came up to him and like because henry's new to the guild and the guild's kind of a fraternity of like old men that are kind of judgmental at first when you join because it's like this guy doesn't know what he's doing he's

not being safe whatever and so some guy came up to him this guy doesn't know what he's doing. He's not being safe, whatever. And so some guy came up to him and tried to tell him what to do. And Henry's like, well, I don't really like doing it like that. And this guy's like, well, I've been teaching shop for, you know, 40 years. And Henry goes, I want to tell that guy, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. He's like, I'm a civil engineer.

I've built bridges. You think these guys ought to build bridges, Brad? I'm like, I don'tad i'm like i don't know i don't know you think these guys know know anything about bridge building brad this guy's been a shop teacher for 40 years and i'm like henry whatever what do you want me to say that i don't know i wasn't there i don't know these people i think he was probably just trying to keep you safe henry yeah i just told him you know I didn't say it, but I wanted to say, I'm sorry. He just loves like repeating his jokes. So anyway, you just need someone to blow off steam with. Is that what it feels like? No, he just needs someone to socialize with in general. I

think, I don't even think it's blowing off steam. I think it's just like, like we talked for, I bet an hour and a half. Oh. And multiple times during that conversation, we talked about places you can go in Kansas city that have like good machines for woodworking that can help you do a job faster. And I'm like, yeah, because time is money. He's like, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes. He's like, exactly. It's convenience. It's, it's, I mean, you know, and I'm like, yeah.

So the fact that I'm sitting like, they saw how busy I was. And so finally Catherine called me on the phone and I just, I, I answered and I was like, Hey, how's it going? And then she was like, I'm just calling you to get you out of there. And I was like, thank you. Okay. Oh yeah. I got to go Henry. Sorry. And he's like, okay, we'll see you. Great. Like, but you never know. He's going to come back and you never know when he's going to figure it out. So someday it's happening. I mean, I think it's just, it's, it's inevitable. There's going to be a tipping point. I don't know. I don't know either. I I'm worried. I think it's happening. I mean, I think it's inevitable. There's going to be a tipping point. I don't know.

I don't know either. I'm worried. I think it's going to be more on his son to eventually maybe find out if we get popular enough that he sees it, that he gets into it. But you have to be pretty deep into the podcast to get it right. Hopefully, hopefully, Brad. So podcast is growing. Thank you guys for listening and telling your friends about it. Yeah, it just every week it gets stronger every month. It's like our biggest month. And yeah, it's just really fun. So thank you guys for listening and telling your friends about it yeah it just every week it gets stronger every month it's like our biggest month and yeah it's just really fun so

thank you guys for listening absolutely and thank you for not telling henry so that's fun well tell us more about your week jakey uh so yeah i had someone come to my driveway this week brad yes first ever time i got uh my car detailed okay which is a weird word i would put a car detail in the same category as window treatments. It's like, that is a word. Okay. But that is a different meaning in this. Okay.

You know what I mean? Like treatments and detail being the same words. But detailed, they're kind of like working on the very intricate details of cleaning it. I guess so. I don't know why they just don't call it car cleaning. Like car detailing has stoned me off for like probably 25 years of my life. I feel like detail just sounds way fancier than like, I my car cleaned sprayed some windex on it and it's all good it's all cleaned they put rain x on it cool yeah uh so i've never done that ever in my life

found this company they'll come straight to your driveway this is like awesome is it uh adam's company um no although i do have a friend i don't know i felt weird like what if adam shows up for some reason the idea of hiring someone to do manual labor when it's something that i could do right like i could clean my car sure i don't know like i wanted to support my friend but at the same time i was like this would feel weird if he just comes over wow and i'm like okay all right just let me know when it's done i don't know i just i get i don't know i know i probably should support my friend i do think that like there's a there's an absolute skill to what they do though sure not to say that i could do it exactly like yeah you're not going to be able to get in all the nooks and crannies and have the tools that he has but for the most part i could

take out all my which i did take out the trash first not a you know freak yeah but you know the vacuuming or whatever sure i know how to work a vacuum anyway um guy says all right we'll be there between 8 and 11 a.m i was like okay, okay, great. He shows up right at 8. I was like, wow. Okay. Thanks for being here right at 8. Yeah, is that preferred? Sure.

I don't know. And he, dude, he opens my car door. He takes one look. I mean, maybe a couple gazes into my driver's side door. He's just looking at it. And I'm in the trunk messing with something. He goes, man, I got to gotta ask what kind of animal you got dude like he was so this guy said he got two pythons right here brother he said he had cleaned cars for 11 years detailed cards for

11 years so think about that expert been doing this a long time he looks into my car he doesn't even know the species of animal he didn't even ask what kind of dog do you have he said what kind of animal do you have what kind of animal you got i was like uh i hate to break it down animals literally never been in my car i would have lied i think i was gonna be like uh german shepherd yeah um you know, whatever, whatever match. So I guess it's just like my arm hair, my head hair, just like shedding. Oh, that's what he, I was thinking smell is what he was saying. No, I think it was just like the, he was looking at like the hair, which I didn't think I had a problem.

Are you sure? Yeah. He mentioned hair. What? He said, what kind of animal you got? He's never seen so much hair or like, I don't know. He just couldn't figure it out. Oh, wow. I was i was i was very confused i thought he was saying that it smelled bad i was like i've been your car doesn't smell no yeah because i was like i repeat the question

i was like animal he's like yeah what all is what all this hair in here i was like no animal it's all me you know and uh but yeah i couldn't believe that that's how he opened, uh, the, the car detailing. And so we kind of chatted for a little bit and, um, he was like, all right, I'll be done like an hour, hour and a half. Okay. He rings the doorbell hour later. He's done. I was like, great.

And, um, I was like, dude, uh, can't wait to see it. He never got my car clean before. You know, this is awesome. Thank you for coming. I'll definitely holler at you again. And, uh, he was like, yeah. So it looks to be dead in the eyes so what are you thinking like as far as tip i was like oh just staring at me and it was like i don't even know he hasn't given me options i don't know what's normal i've never done this before shoot yeah i'm you know

and so i was like i mean let's do 10 yeah i. I don't know. I froze, dude. I couldn't believe that he just like spoke to me that way. Sure. So like tip, what are you thinking? Stared you straight in the face. Yeah. I was like, I got so scared. So that seemed to be fine for him.

I don't know. And then we got to talking afterwards and he saw the woodworking equipment in the garage. He's like, man, what do you do? And I was like, oh, I, uh, I was like, that's all my roommate stuff. He is a woodworker. I do, um, we're like YouTube stuff. He's like, oh, you're like educational woodworking. I was like, no, no. Remember I had that confusion one time where I was like, I do YouTube stuff as well. And they're like, oh, we don't watch YouTube woodworking videos.

Yeah. It's easy to jump from one to the other. I was like, no, no, not like that. We're like comedy stuff. He's like, dude, I got to check you out. And so I got to subscribe there in the driveway to Jean Shorts. And I was like, you have anything going on on the side and what are you doing he's like dude i'm glad you asked i'm a rapper and i was like nice soundcloud um i couldn't find him anywhere he said his name was the real cuz cuz and uh couldn't find him on spotify couldn't find him on soundcloud i don't know where he's at but he says he does a lot of shows okay so maybe strictly live performer yeah no streaming good for him just like yeah you gotta you gotta pay to see me perform yeah i'll put it out for free right how are you

spelling cuz cuz uh suzy suzy i asked oh onesie you still couldn't find him yeah so yeah i wanted to clarify i wanted to check him out that's funny i i don't like the tip thing i don't know i i guess i don't know like what the maybe it's a normal thing and i hadn't even been in the car i can't even see me i haven't even seen his work he like meets me in the driveway so what do you think as far as tip like dude i have no clue i told you i've never done this before yeah it's not very professional it feels like yeah yeah it feels a it feels obviously very manipulative to be like yeah hey are you gonna tip me and then you have to like verbally say no i'm not going to tip you at all. No, I don't know. I guess service you often tip, but not don't tip the people that changed my oil at Valvoline. Should I?

I don't know. I don't, I don't. Would you, if they asked? Yeah, I probably would do a hundred percent. Please don't ask. I don't know. That's, that's interesting. Yeah. It's too bad, but, but all in all car detail worth every penny. Really? Dude, it's sweet. Yeah, it's too bad. But all in all, car detail worth every penny. Really? Dude, it's sweet. Have you ever had it happen before? Yeah. Oh, yeah.

Oh, I mean, it feels like a brand new car. The seats look amazing. Everything's like vacuum shampooed. I don't know what they did to it. Exactly. That's the thing. It's like you can't do that. Like you can't do it to the same level.

Yeah, I don't think I could. It looks so, so good. I was like, I'm going to do this like once every six months, probably. Oh, and imagine like if you are a woodworker that does custom furniture. Hold on. That has three kids. OK, I'm imagining it. And I mean, my truck, I mean, your truck gets so dusty and nasty.

I got my truck detailed one time and it was like a brand new truck. It was awesome. OK, imagine this. OK. You live with a guy. He's a custom woodworker. Yes. Both of you are in a sand volleyball league

that custom woodworker also gets nosebleeds uh let's just say more frequently than the vultures come get your car cleaned in that situation okay not bad yes thank you for matching that with me dude bo has getting is starting to get uh spontaneous nosebleeds last two weeks really yeah two sundays every sunday easter i mean he was just trying to sure be like Passover yeah and then last sunday i don't even know that we've got text in church we've never gotten a text from like the like worker ladies said fyi bow we think he fell and he just he's got a pretty bad nosebleed so we get there and he's got a white polo on and it's just like drenched like not drenched but, but like bunch of blood spots. Wait, did you post a picture of Bo in this white polo before you got blood on it?

Dude, he looked good. Cute. I know. I sat there and looked at that photo for a while and I was like, you know, I guess obviously you do want your kids to dress nice, but that stinks. You have to buy so many like nice clothes for your kids. Catherine went to Dillard's the other day and like, I mean, yeah, it's one of those things that's just probably selfish and frugal of me, but I, but I I got frustrated by how much she spent on a few of these shirts

and like and transparently it was like 15 to 20 dollars per shirt it's not like crazy amounts of money but I was like for a kid's shirt like what's old navy got wrap them in newspaper yeah it'll be fine and they're cute like cool shirts for church and stuff but it's just like what are we doing here Catherine let this validate you I don't look at anyone and I looked at Bo's shirt like I don't care I don't I don't stop and stare at anyone on Instagram is what I'm trying to say and I stopped and looked at Bo yeah he's he's so fun he's so cute every yeah my kids are so fun right now it's it's great I love being dad it's great um life's great yeah life's great how he's getting more and more in the shark tank the other day the other day we were watching one and I'm trying.

Catherine was like, OK, you need to like kind of vet some of these. Some of them are kind of like not inappropriate, but like adult themed things. And the very first one we ever watched is the one that she claims is her favorite. And it's this like wine glass that you like twist onto a wine bottle and you can just chug the bottle or chug the wine straight from the glass. Oh, that's fine. And so she's like, my favorite one is the wine lover's one. And I'm like, great. That's fine.

That's fine. Just be an alcoholic. No problem. That's not what that means. That was like, well, Catherine let her read the book about Nazis. Yeah, exactly. We're even. You got to start strong when you get into a series.

Did you hear about scott's dog in the dog training no i forgot they sent topper away yeah sent topper away and whatever we're just telling uh prices that our friends are paying for things these days apparently oh no um a thousand dollars for this dog training really how how long longer than i thought uh I thought. Uh, four weeks. It's a long time to not have your dog. I was going to say I'd pay a thousand dollars just for somebody to dog sit my dog for four weeks. Not truly, but you know, that's like, that's like, yeah, a decent amount of just like, Oh wow. You're gone for a long time. And they feed your dog for you. Let's hope so. Yeah. I don't know. Actually. Like, is that part of the cost? Maybe you have to provide your own

food, but I don't, I have no idea. I just thought I, what do you think of just like the general idea of a thousand dollars to train your dog? I don't know. I mean, I go back and forth because, because the one time I met Topper was like a couple of weeks after they had him, which was probably means he was eight weeks old or something like that. I don't know. Maybe I'm off on that.

And he did, he was a little bit of a struggling dog. He didn't like being in this kennel. He freaked out. He, Scott was like, yeah, he's's probably gonna pee at some point on the floor uh you know he was he barked a decent amount and cried and so i was like okay he's a puppy but i don't know enough about dogs you're way more of a dog guy than me yeah but then again i don't know i mean so in strafford we got every dog we ever owned from the humane society like from the pound and good for you first of all every dog we ever had was like i would consider like very well not very well trained but i mean they could all do

tricks they were like now you could have them in a house they weren't gonna like pee anywhere like they were just like good dogs and i wonder if that was something to do with the farm or maybe we knew what we were doing i don't know sure it was never even an option that we're gonna get our dogs trained yeah but maybe that's part of just like having land or having a dad who's a farmer i don't know yeah i just the squirt bottle helps a lot squirt bottle and rolled up newspaper and go a long way we he would just squirt like that was a punishment yeah yeah you squirt the dog how uh how strong is this mist uh oh i don't know four out of ten okay not bad yeah fine just enough to like i'm ashamed yeah i have wet wet yeah snout yeah um yeah i just the whole idea of it i think there's a huge market for this kind of thing like katherine's sister is an

assistant for this guy who that's his job is like he's a dog trainer he's down in dallas he does luca donch is just dog no yeah donch dog that sounds like big town lie maybe so luca's dog luca's dog um but and he's getting a hgtv show that i mean those two things combined big town lies yeah that's like exactly what we filmed today he like got it he like supposedly he's getting a tv deal so maybe he's coming out soon but um i think he gets way a ton of money for these dogs and i don't know i on one hand i'm like i would i i pay a lot of money for these dogs. And I don't know. I, on one hand, I'm like, I would, I, I pay a lot of money for convenience, but on the other hand, I'm like a thousand dollars for a dog. Yeah. I don't know. I guess I would, I need to be like in a, a dog owner myself.

I need to be an adult with a dog rather than just like a kid with a dog. Maybe I didn't realize how much went into the training of it. Right. Or if you, yeah, I don't know. Cause Scott, like, I mean, it's, it's obviously not the same, but Scott absolutely parallels it to a newborn baby like in so many ways he's like yeah i had to get up with the dog to take him out last night and yeah he gets scared so he has to sleep in bed with us and like like dang that does sound like a newborn i get i get why people compare him but i don't know i'm kind of i kind of like it like if it's like a thousand dollars one-time

thing it better work this dog is gonna come back and it is gonna be speaking spanish making me coffee absolutely let's do it like it better be like you just went to basic training yeah exactly you got a butt nice like high and tight cut you do deep yoga poses right yeah you you push deep you push deep yeah i like that's what i need to hear more about. Like, hey, what are the results of this thing, Scott? Like how? Yeah, the dog comes back and it motivates you. It tells you when to sit. It tells you when to eat.

Yeah. It does stuff for you. It's like I need to go on a run right now. It's like, OK, I guess I got to go. I guess I'm running, too. Right. Dogs like, hey, I need some sun. Yes.

All right. I guess I'll go out. I've been working a lot today. There you go. Dogs like, hey, I want some greens. And then you just don't need an Apple Watch anymore. You got a dog. You have a dog watch.

OK. Oh, that's what that means. Sorry, Scott. That is a bummer. But maybe not. I kind of like it. I kind of like it. I like you did that.

What else is there to talk about? Oh, real quick. I forgot to mention this last week. I went to Andy's drive through and I heard people yelling at me. And it was all these like SBU people that I knew from back in the day which for one i feel like you always make that comment you're like k-state is so much bigger than sbu it's amazing and you always run into sbu people yeah sbu people are fun i think they're fun i've never i've never seen an interaction that you've had with somebody where it's like oh that person was kind of weird looking no i loved

it i was in the drive-thru and i like i was like let me park i want to hang out with you guys and hang out with like 30 minutes it hung out with him like 30 minutes. It was really good to see him. I hadn't seen any of them since college. But one of them was like, asked me all these questions. I was like, she's very like in tune with my life. She's a guy. I listened to ghost runners.

Nice. And she's like, and I kind of know Brad. She's like, we went to like this church camp thing together. He wouldn't know me. Cause I went to private school. But I wouldn't know her. Let's go. Well, she's like, whoa, Matthew.

Whoa. Yeah. Wait. She's friends with Brie. How did you. Well, she's like, whoa. Matthew. Whoa. Yeah. Wait. She's friends with Brie. How did you, out of all the, how did you do that? So Louis, I'm a genius. Because Lisa was like, I mean, Brad wouldn't know me. He might know.

And then she mentioned some family member. Can you get this name? Joseph Atiali. No. Yeah. Daniel. That's not the one she mentioned. Dang it. Banu. Do you know Banu? Banu. Yeah, yeah, alley. No. Yeah. Daniel. That's not the one she mentioned. Dang it. Um, but new,

do you know, but new, but new. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. It was her something. Yeah. She was very confident. You know, but new, I don't know if I'm, I don't, I remember her just as much as been new. I'm Facebook friends with her. And so I think that helps like remind you who they are. Everyone's. Oh yeah. Lisa Matthew. Yeah. Okay. So she might not have been related, but Joseph at the alley also went to that uh church and joseph at the ollie if you remember from way back when is the guy that i forced to be my friend uh by uh asking for pokemon holographic cards from him sorry lisa but yeah lisa matthew and brie brenneman brie dowd went to the same church growing up and we all went to the same conference this is such a fun fun full circle we went to this same church growing up and we all went to the same conference. This is such a fun,

fun, full circle. But it was this conference for like a weekend. I don't even know much about it. Cool. Um, and Rustin was crushing on two different girls. Oh,

and they were both crushing on her. The hungry wolf can only get one goose. And these two girls were both very, very pretty, very cute. Christian girls. Same age. Oh,

how old were we? Uh, sophomores probably in high school. Min cute. Christian girls. How old? Same age. Oh, how old were we? Sophomores, probably in high school. Minors. Yeah. And we were sitting in bed one night. Russ and I don't even know if you remember this, but he was like, man, I just don't know which one I should go for. And I was like, dude, I was like, Bree's quality.

You got to go for Bree. Like Bree is awesome. She's a full package. 1200 thread count. She's wonderful. Yeah. Like you could get brie detailed i don't know how to you wouldn't even need a tip um no and ends up marrying her so you're welcome they met in high school cool met in high school didn't go to the same school though um the church thing brought them together yeah i can't believe you just nailed lisa matthew i mean

she was like another one i shoot her college i don't know i'm two for two on these like brad's not gonna ever get we're gonna get this that was crazy i don't know how i did that i don't know lisa's gonna be like creeped out obviously because it's not like we're yeah i have not i have not probably communicated with her electronically or in person since that time i'm serious. That was wild. And also, I don't remember even how it got brought up, but we had a conversation about jumping catfish that night. Me and Lisa did.

I forgot what she told me about it. Maybe she was the one who told me it burned down. Is that true? It burned down at one point? Oh, that sounds kind of familiar. Cool. I'm better at names than remembering if mediocre restaurants stay unburned or not.

But that could be. That sounds kind of familiar. It's like, it's like they had a grease fire or something. Grease, grease fish. Um, that's really funny though.

Yeah. So that was fun. Yeah. It gives me another one next week. Okay. Or this week, if you want to find something else. Um,

okay. Quiz Brad. Okay. Last week. Yep. I meant to mention it. We were very in sync. We were very,

his last name was Evans Lewis. You don't remember? I might were very in sync. His last name was Evans. Lewis. You don't remember? I might. Two last names. Two first names. No? Yeah, I guess.

Lewis Bryant. Oh, wait. You had two first names. Idiot. Lewis Bryant? No. His name's Lewis. Lewis Lewis.

Yeah. I don't remember. Lewis Davis. Dang it. He knows Lisa Matthew. Both PT students. Anyway Davis. Dang it. He knows Lisa Matthew. Both PT students. Anyway, Brad, quiz. Last week, we were in sync very randomly about two different things.

What were they? NBA playoffs. And dang it. NBA playoffs was awesome. Okay. And then, no, no. Let's think about it real quick. Because we, yeah, it was like wild. We were at Culver's.

And I was like, guys, I'm going to get in the NBA playoffs this year. I was like, I think it's really fun.'s great and I have time for this and like Luke Hoagland was like dumbfounded because Jake had literally said the exact same like he's like you guys planned this he's like why why would you like I don't really get it like why'd you plan this I was like no I was like we didn't plan it I had said the same thing to Luke like two hours earlier I was like this is kind of random out of nowhere but I feel like maybe getting into the NBA playoffs this year and then like I said more things and he was like no that's exactly what Jake said again oh this is kind of random out of nowhere, but I feel like maybe getting into the NBA playoffs this year. And then, like I said, more things. And he was like, no, that's exactly what Jake said again. Oh, this is going to.

Also, how have you done getting in the NBA playoffs? I don't think I've watched. I've watched like two minutes since that is two minutes more than I have watched since I said it. So I came upstairs last week after recording and watched a little bit with Peter and Luke. That's right. Gosh, darn it. This is going to bother me.

Ah, you're more of a. You remember it though, huh? Oh yeah. Um, we were in sync. Maybe just about, we were going to do stuff on Tuesday. No. Okay. What? We were on our way to shoot at the church with the girls last week. McDonald's. Yeah. Yeah. That was a good time. I was in the far left lane. There's like three slash four. Cause the turning lane lanes that I'm like, and the last thing I'm like, Ooh, McDonald's sweet tea sounds good. And so I just swerve over and I pull into this parking lot. And as I'm getting to the McDonald's drive-thru, I'm like, well, I should probably text Brad and Derek, see if they want something. I go to pull out my phone to text them. And then up pops a

message from Brad that says, swing it through McDonald's drive-thru. You guys want anything? I was like, no way. No way. We know, dude. That was cool. We're fun people like that. And we're generous people, you know?

Generous, thoughtful. Thoughtful people. Thoughtful people. Okay, that was fun. You're right. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I have an observation, Brad. Do you think this is true?

I've seen this happen so many times. It would be like a baby at a park or a coffee shop or anywhere and like how old is he no matter the age you can tell them any age and you'll get the same response 16 weeks oh like no matter what age you will get the same response it's just like such a funny thing that we do it's like you know why we ask the age i don't i i ask certain questions and i don't even listen to the answer. I'm just worried about my reaction. Like, yeah. And that's every single time he's 16 and a half days.

Oh, that is the best time. Every time people love saying that that's, that's a, that's a veteran move. How old is she? Two and a half. Oh,

we love two and a half. Yes. That's a veteran move. Cause it's like, I've been there before. Let me tell you, that's a great age. We loved, we love to two and a half. That is the best move because it's like i've been there before let me tell you that's a great age we loved we love two two and a half that is the best that's one of my favorite stages

terrible twos don't listen to don't listen to him we loved him it's three majors okay seriously that's when it gets really bad uh no it's like every time it's you're totally right it's the age is just the they act like they just said the perfect age um let's see to get text i guess it'll be 37 37 weeks how far how far along are you 38 weeks i remember that time i remember that time yes yes it's it's so funny like yeah totally it's it's just it's just reaction or like what's his name his name's dan name's Daniel. Daniel! We had some friends. They were thinking about going with Daniel. They went with, they went with him.

Just, they went with him, which threw us off. Which, yeah. They went from Daniel to him. They really laid an egg on that one. Yeah. But hey, what are you going to do? So anyway, how about these comic books on the walls? Yeah. What do you think of this 18 inch comic over 18 inch screen?

No, that's totally a good. Please go to comic coffee sometime. Everyone and Brad go. I just let me know what you think. Maybe I'll do a little vlog. That would be fun. Dude. Okay, dude, dude.

Seriously. I have something to talk about. I, my, my microphone on my phone is messed up, but I think it is specifically messed up for my camera app. Like if I do something on Instagram, it works fine. Do you know, can you diagnose that for me? That is unique. I mean, it must be something software related, but it has to be somewhat in the hardware.

Either way, that is confusing. Yeah. Yeah. And I'm not like full, like this is not a foolproof thing. Cause I'm not positive, positive. Cause I haven't done like 15 tests of this, but it seemed like so far it seems like it's very consistent. Like, so now you just have to record every video you want in 15 second intervals in a

video. Yeah. And then just save it to your camera roll. Yeah. Weird. Annoying. So anyway, because, because, and also you might actually know the answer to this. Can you change it to where your AirPods are your microphone for like a

recording a video? You should be able to wait. Yeah. I've never tried that. Yeah. I haven't Googled it. I just didn't know if you knew off the top of your head. Off the top.

No, but you should be able to. I got AirPods so I can do Patreon videos and everything. No. It's so facto. Surely. Okay. I'll figure it out.

But in the, well, whatever you talk, common hypothetical settings. Yeah. Cool. Cool. Cool.

Um, okay. Here's a fun thing I did. That is are you ready yeah so this is uh our episode 156 so that's our three-year anniversary and so i said i said to myself i wonder what we were doing on our zero-year anniversary aka our first episode okay so i went back and i listened to our first episode did you really last couple days yeah oh no first of all it's only like 54 minutes long good for us yeah just we didn't have anything to talk about. Yeah. And second of all,

we're at an hour 14 right now. Um, I wrote down some things that we said that I will see if they're currently true or not about it. This is fun. Thanks for doing that. You're welcome. Uh,

so first thing that I noticed that you said is that coffee sucks. Direct, direct quote. Do you still agree with coffee? Black coffee, right? I think eventually you kind of did clarify that like you get a lot of sugar in and everything. Gotcha.

Yeah, totally agree. Black coffee sucks. I talked about it on my set. I've started talking about that again. Just gross. Who are you trying to fool? Drink a latte like the rest of us. That's right.

Okay. And then we got, you told the story about eating a deviled egg at Easter. Oh yeah, my dad paid me. Have you gotten any more money for eggs lately? No money. I also haven't eaten one. Okay. I did my time.

Would you do it again if your dad said right now? I mean, if it would go towards like training a dog, maybe. If it goes to a good cause. I made the stance that I think eventually led to the coffee thing that I said, I will always prefer cold drinks over hot. No matter the circumstance, unless I'm like very, very cold, like out. Like I remember that first episode, you were excited to talk about ice. Yeah, I did. I talked about ice being the ultimate stabilizer and like how, like it just, it just makes things not move. And like, it's wonderful. I love ice. And I was just like, that's as good as I got.

But I still believe that cold drinks like are better than hot like yeah i don't mind hot drinks but uh then we talked about uh writing jokes did we really yeah we were writing jokes uh no the the one we got paid like the children's the omaha ones yeah really um that happened episode one episode one i think was like right after we started doing it okay that's kind of cool yeah okay i would like to go back and see how much money i've made on jokes you know it'd be fun to see but um yeah just talking about those we are not currently writing jokes so that's not a thing well kind of currently writing jokes yeah we are you did this morning yeah you're right you're right it's different kind of jokes not knock knock as much anymore um then we talked the the classic

thing well i'll get to that later uh we talked about curved tvs oh those things did not last and not really there yeah i've never seen them outside of a best buy like i've never seen them in someone's home right which is what you said last time and i said i knew one person that had it this is so embarrassing i'm saying the same things no i listened we talked about the avengers and how uh like how i don't like superhero movies unless it's like kind of a real thing. Like, like, you know, Spider-Man and Batman, they're in real cities or whatever. I said that episode one, I've said like four times.

At least we're consistent. Hey guys, let me tell you my stance on this. Like really interesting stance that I have. At least we're consistent. Actually it's, I'll take the cringiness or like the repetitiveness over like, wow. Remember when I used to, or whatever, like if we've like changed dramatically or like, oh, remember we used to hang out with Gunnar and Peter? Yeah, exactly.

Oh, that'd be awful. If like everything changed in our lives. Yeah. That was the interesting thing. It was like our, our lives have obviously changed pretty drastically. Sure. But our personalities aren't like drastically different. That's cool.

Um, you talked about how you, um, might've been hard of hearing as a young kid. Oh yeah. You read lips a lot. I find myself like staring at people's mouths, which is so funny because obviously the last um you talked about how you um might have been hard of hearing as a young kid oh yeah you read lips a lot i find myself like staring at people's mouths which is so funny because obviously the last two years we've been struggling to hear people because of masks and i i'm absolutely with you after after like like having all these people in masks it's like i don't know what you're saying i should have been complaining about this more over the last two years yeah i had a real tough time it was so hard i couldn't hear a thing you go to those places where it's a mask and you got a glass pane yeah good luck i mean i i just went straight ear right into like wherever they were like what'd

you say i would just hand on my phone and say type it yeah just put it in notes app for me do you know sign language or yeah something else um and let's see uh i had contacts i talked about that i don't have those anymore upgrade lasik yeah to what was that cyclone i think was playing while i got lasik and the guy was talking about you have just gorgeous big lips all right um uh do you cry in movies anymore uh no not really i mean that the notebook still gets me yep that's the one with the old people is it really yeah wow yeah when they're old man the dementia gets me yeah i cry so much more in movies i i think just as i've gotten older i've gotten i'm getting more and more like it's easy

to put things in a personal perspective like what if that was our family yeah i was trying to think about on the way over here like what it was but i like i like straight up didn't even hold it back like kind of recently like by myself was like sitting there just like crying, like to the point where I think they were like coming down my face, watching the Tom Brady documentary. I think it was a documentary, but I don't know which one it might've honestly, it might've honestly been, I'm trying to remember. It was something like that where, no, I think it might've been the John Madden documentary.

I would've loved it. It was, I think it was, I think it was the Ted Bundy documentary I think it was when Dee Ford lined up off sides with Tom Brady documentary and the Chiefs didn't go to Super Bowl I think yeah it was making a murderer no I'm pretty sure now that I think about it it was maybe I don't know I don't know if I like cried cried at that one but like John Madden's sons were talking about him as a dad and like how he was all these different things but he was a great dad cool and john madden literally like died like two days before yeah good timing yeah a little bit too good timing a little suspicious um anyway um and then i wrote that you talked about pantomiming from the neck up like when you were uh like not able to speak and like

i was like i don't know we went through all these different like things of like i think I could still tell what you're saying if you're, if you're being like expressive and everything, but you didn't make any noise. And you're like, well, we can't just pantomime from the neck up. That's not good podcast material. Now that we have, you know, YouTube, we could probably do that if we really wanted to. But, um, you also commented like, there's no way to comment on a podcast. So I guess this is lame. Why are we doing this? Do we get CS to give comment? Uh, and then last but not least is, you know, the, the age old question, the thing that we titled our episode on was talking about how much you would sell your dog for good. I came in with a stance of $13,000 and you said I would sell it for less than 13,000.

You didn't ever specify how much less I ever did. Huh? But how do you feel about that today? And the hypothetical situation that if you remember is like, you have a good dog. You didn't ever specify how much less. I never did, huh? But how do you feel about that today? And the hypothetical situation that if you remember is like, you have a good dog. I mean, seven and a half out of 10. It's like halfway through its life.

You know, you have kids that like the dog. You like the dog. How does it sense? There's a pup? Yeah, sure. Kids that like the puppy, I think, ups the ante a little bit. Yeah. Are you sticking with, what do you say, 13, 12? No, yeah, I'm sticking sticking with it i'll stick with it till the day i die sticking with it yeah i'm thinking at

the time then again though i don't know nowadays it's a thousand dollars to train a dog you know that's that's like that's like getting tired that's like getting tires on a dog you're on a car you're about to sell it's like a closing cost or whatever it's like the dog costs this but you're gonna have to get them trained that's part of you can't avoid that yeah it's like the dog costs this, but you have to get him trained. That's part of it. You can't avoid that. Yeah, it's like the commission fee. Some of it goes to the realtor. Yeah, some of it goes to the trainer. Okay, I'm thinking my family. I have a wife, two kids, golden retriever, good dog.

White picket fence. I mean, everything's going well. Just barely. Hey, how you doing? I'm looking to buy your dog. How much would you sell that for, sir? I would sell you my dog right now for $10,500. But there's a catch. Okay.

Tell me it. You have to eat three deviled eggs right now. You got them available or where do I get them? I didn't think that part through somewhere in there just shy i think 10 5 there's still animals yeah and puppies are fun i know start all over let's let's let's let's anger some more people here real quick you know you think people are upset at that no i i love dogs there's no way you can rationally be that upset about it like yeah i understand like if you disagree that's fine but at least you can be like well i understand why you would want that money two thousand dollars if i have a family i mean i can do a lot yeah honestly my number is

probably lower i forgot about like what that much money would do for a family it's not just me anymore exactly solar panels fix a chimney my gosh fix a freaking chimney anyway that's been that was really fun that was a good idea yeah old episodes with jake and brad um just because if like i owe it to uh my family to talk i forgot all last week and you even prompted me and i was a bad boy twice i think how is strafford i was like well hold on well let me let me get back to strafford i never talked about rachel finally went home with me for the first time ever we went home for easter um and it was so great it was just a sporty little weekend she got to meet several members of my family uncle john coach john full bride to you go go reds uh let's go sluggers uh my aunt my

grandparents had so much fun and uh we it was really windy one day and so instead of trying to play pickleball outside, my mom has keys to the gym. And so no way that's like a dream of mine. Yeah, it was awesome. That's amazing. And so we went in and we were playing kind of a hybrid version of pickleball. Like they didn't have lines on the court and we didn't have that much tape, but we didn't have a net. It wasn't very wide though. So it was like a really narrow, weird version of pickleball. Interesting. It was kind of fun for a little bit. And then I was kind of like, I wonder, like, let's like right now we're hitting it out

so much. How much more fun would it be if like you almost always hit it in? Yeah. You know, street rules. And so then my mom had the idea. She wheeled out from the elementary school, like lunch cafeteria, these like benches. They come out, they're on wheels, but they serve as benches slash tables. She wheeled out one of those. It is the exact same height as this pickleball net it could not have been more perfect like this is awesome okay so this bench is big one there next to each other

they also use this gym for gymnastics so they're like it's gonna be hard to imagine but rolled up just imagine a big cylinder that's eight feet off the ground gymnastics mats yeah and so in between the net and the bench is an eight foot tall gymnastics mat that's also part of the net in between the net and the bench where what just like it's center court it's just like an eight foot cylinder that you can hit it off of yeah upright like just in the way okay so but it's like so in the way that like when you're serving diagonally you can't see the person serving to you really fun wait but it's it's got to be on one side or the other, correct?

No, it's just dead center. It's a cylinder. So it's a circle. It's just on one side. Sorry. It's like in the center line. OK, I have a video of it. It's going to go on Patreon.

OK, it was so fun because then what we realized is you could hide behind this. Called it the peekaboo. It was so fun. And then the game started elevating more and more. So then we found like an old plastic bottle. You put that on top of the mat. Yeah. So it's like, I mean, it's scary to hit into into it but if you hit the bottle off automatic point i love it so now you're encouraged to hit it into the center how hard was it to hit that bottle off because i would have gone automatic win it was hard reward i uh i think

one time rachel hit the like the trigger of the bottle it was like a windex bottle and it didn't fall off and the rule was had to fall off. Oh, yeah. But yeah, it was so fun. We played for hours. I went back the next day and played again, like set up the same version, same setup.

Really? We tried different versions of like, let's roll the mat out. More peekaboo space. Let's roll it in. OK. Yeah, so fun. I'm having a hard time

visualizing the mat. The mat threw me off a little bit. OK, let me find you. Because I'm thinking like you have the net and then you have people on both sides. So how does the mat threw me off a little bit okay you want me to find you want me to because i'm thinking like you have the net and then you have people on both sides so how does the mat not i'm going to show this to you and then you're going to explain it to people in a way that i'm unable to because i'm not good no you are good you are good you are good good at pickleball. You are good. He's looking, guys.

He's looking at it right now. Okay. Oh, I see. Wait. There's me doing the peekaboo right now. Oh, so that net just stops right there. Yeah. Oh, that's fun.

You peekabooter. Okay, okay, okay, okay. So the bench is an extension of the net it's also a net it's the same height oh great okay yeah yeah i was confused about that maybe maybe you said that and i didn't i didn't pick up it's a really hard thing to communicate so imagine imagine you have the net and then the bench extends the net and so it's now twice as wide of a court big old court yes and in between the bench and the net is this cylinder. Yeah, I got it right at the 50 yard line. That's fun. Okay. Dead center peekaboo. Both teams can peek

as much as you want. The peekaboo was fun. I can't imagine how it would be advantageous. Well, it's just like they're trying to hit it right over the net and they don't know which side you're going to pop out at. So right when you know they're about to hit it, you just pop out to one side and you hope to hit it to your side. That made it a very wide court all of a sudden. Yeah, it was hard to get some balls, but it was fun. You hit the ball in so often. Yeah, yeah. I love how it seems like your dad and Uncle John are just so like great at making up games like that or like making their variations of it.

Oh, definitely. And I mean, they're still very like active and playing all these sports. Yeah, it was really fun. We played me and my sister against my dad and Rachel for like most of like the first day. And I mean, they're still very active in playing all these sports. Spry. Yeah, it was really fun. We played me and my sister against my dad and Rachel for most of the first day. Pretty even teams. Really? Really fun.

Wow. Yeah, it was great. Rachel must not be very good because I've seen your sister play pickleball. My sister's still trying to figure out which hand she hits it with. Now, which one of these two? No. No, your sister's great. Yeah, so fun.

Fun times in Stratford. Love it. Rachel really liked when i shared with her that strafford backwards is doctor of farts yeah i you mentioned that on the patreon episode with you guys i think or something like that and i was like i had i had to do it in my head multiple i was like that's not right dr abbreviation of doctor of course of course of course of course but either way i was like that's wild i've never heard that found out that harrison's parents are patrons yes thank you leslie and bentley for patronizing us yeah like i met them for the first time at harrison's engagement party and he was like surprised you're not drinking a monster and it took me so long to like realize what that meant and it was like wait yeah that was a brief thing in this picture i was like oh oh my gosh i don't ever drink monsters but yeah that one time yeah that's so funny so that was a brief thing in this page. I was like, Oh, Oh my gosh. I don't ever drink monsters,

but yeah, that one time. Yeah. That's so funny. So that was fun. And you guys should think about, I've posted a video to patron. I think four days in a row now.

Oh baby. Four days in a row. There's been something on patron patron patron. Yeah. We appreciate all the support. Yeah. Um, if you listen for free,

that's still cool too. Yeah. It's cool. You guys listen. Yes. That, that any kind of support. Yeah. It's cool. You guys listen. Yes. That, that any kind of support. Yeah.

Is always fun. Any kind of support. Because I think a lot of the support for jean shorts has come from ghost runners and then therefore we're making money off that as well. So all the support is great support. I think I just have one last thing that I for sure want to tell you this week, Brad.

Last week I talked about Isaac and his venture to go all the way down to Fort worth with the things that can make a dog kennel yeah and so have you heard this or what happened no no okay not really here's here's what i know is it should i not say anything no it's fine yeah all i know is that he like didn't sleep at all okay yeah he like pulled an all-nighter two nights in a row basically um but so yeah i was talking to him and spencer they went down together and so for some reason i was thinking that he was going to his friend's parents house he just went to his friend who's like enrolled in college's house yeah tcu he went to a glorified frat or probably an unglorified like less nice than a frat house right tcu doesn't have like

actual houses for their fraternities and so like like a lot of the houses that they live in are like the fraternity just like they'll buy a seven bedroom house and that's kind of their frat house or whatever right so that is the house that isaac he's like we got there at midnight i go inside you know i'm getting a tour i'm meeting people he's like then about 1 a.m i go out to the garage and i start working he's like dude about 1 30 all these college kids drop he's like dozens and dozens like a party is starting at this house. He's like, dude, I have just and just people. I mean, for the next hour and hour.

Is he in the garage? He's in the garage. He's in the driveway. He's just like out. And they're all just like on the lawn. You know, they're just like drinking, partying. Isaac's just sweating, just covered in sawdust. Just like at this.

Like, imagine a college party. And next year, there's just a guy building a dog it was so funny when i imagined it it's almost like the carrying christine story like i bet it was funnier not being there it's funnier to imagine it it's super like building a dog kennel while like you know afro jack is being played and everyone's just like you know drinking and dancing, the funny thing would be like if they were literally in the garage with him. Like, yeah, music is playing. Like, they're doing like whatever, like

upside down. Flip cup. It's just like, hey, it's going to be loud for a few minutes. I got to say it. FYI, this sander's pretty loud, but I'm on my last grit here. Just the idea of that is amazing he's like dude yeah it sucked i just i was so sweet i'm just covering sawdust there's people just going

in and out all night isaac's like i don't ever regret not going to college until this time right where i'm working hard and they are all hanging out on their parents time yeah that's really funny it was so funny i had not heard that i i still just i don't know i just have a hard time like i don't have much sympathy i have a little sympathy for him but i don't want to have sympathy for him oh that makes sense i don't think you need to have sympathy for i don't have sympathy for him i'm like good for you you got it done yeah yeah but someday it's gonna be like oh yeah i screwed up on this kind of like the the different size thing like i know that wasn't really his fault but kind of like it's like you. Like, I know that wasn't really his fault, but kind of like,

it's like, you got to talk about that. You got to talk to the dog. You got, you got to be like, Hey dog, how big you at? You eating good.

What kind of animal you got? So I got to ask what kind of animal you got. After we looked at the front driver, where I sit, where I said, he's like, we go, what is this hair?

Have you ever noticed that you've had like shedding on your clothes before or anything not on my clothes I had noticed it in my car before really I didn't think it was a problem but I noticed like oh I guess like a you know hair falls out but I think it's when you have like healthy like thick hair it falls out pretty often I think probably at least I'm telling myself is that true I don't know I mean I think honestly i'm kind of great looking hair so i don't think you're like balding but i'm kind of getting this from rachel a little bit because she like has just like very naturally like thin hair and so she's

always talking about my hair she's like she just can't believe it she's like okay how long does it take to like dry off you know just something like that and she was like inspecting it like a orangutan or something the other day she's looking at she's like there's just so much more hair like the the hair itself is thicker she's like i can't even like break your hair she's like and there's just so much more in like a square inch it's just like way more hair than i've ever seen you can't break your hair i've never i know i was like i've never even tried what are you talking about anyway so that makes me think that hey more chances to lose it now that we're diagnosing someone tell me about hair in the comments yes now that we're diagnosing it i think that about hair in the comments. Yes. Now that we're diagnosing it,

I think that you just like don't get cleaned off very well. When I get cleaned off, like after you get your haircut, like, Oh, I don't think this is a haircut thing. You don't think so? These are like fully grown hairs.

Yeah. Just falling out. Okay. Nevermind then. I don't know. Maybe my hairs aren't in good. What kind of animal you got? What kind of animal you got?

Um, is that, is that all from Isaac's time? Yeah. Just, and I think it was funnier because I heard that from for the most part from spencer's perspective i was like how was the weekend how did isaac's candle go so was spencer helping him or i was like i'm over to the party i was like what so just you and isaac up all night he's like i mean i was up for a while but

it was mainly isaac in the garage and so i asked isaac and then of course it was like the christine's where i was like dude it sucked um which just makes it funny so yeah i figured i'd follow up on that way to make them faster or something if it's taking them that long well it's the same thing with what you were telling me it might have been off the podcast but it's like the more you know the harder it is to make it quick yes you know how to make it nicer it's like dang yeah i don't want to take shortcuts now that i'm aware of the shortcut i was previously taking. Right. Like, it's like, I'm going to feel guilty about this later. Yeah. Let's hope that's it. Yeah.

Hey, let's get back to our family. Let's get back to our kids, Brad. Let's wrap this episode up. Great. What do you say? Let's do it. What do you say we start with reviews of the week first? That's a great idea.

And you would think after three years of doing this, that I would remember to pull them up beforehand. I'll start. Great. The title is 17-Hour Drive Made Shorter. It's from Corporate Lindsay. Do you think it's a misprint? Or do you think there's no D in her name?

Lindsay. No. I don't know why I said misprint. I'm going to say typo. Misprint. You think they embroidered this wrong? Yeah, the typewriter. Yeah, the D.

The sticky key. Yeah, the D sticks on you key. Yeah, the D sticks on you. As telecommuting Midwesterners, I'm already a little lost. I'm three words in. Telecommuting. Telecommuting. Not communicating. Telecommuting. Telecommuting. Is this a word I should

know? What does that mean? Yeah, it means like you wait, what was the other word you said? As telecommuting Midwesterners. I know, but what was the word you thought it would be? Tele would telecommunicating no telecommuting means that you like travel a lot for work tele what does tele mean i don't know let's look it up real fast you look at we often find ourselves on long car rides actually maybe there's context in the rest of the sentence i mean like i know what telecommuting means it means that you yeah you travel a lot for work but i don't know the tele prefix what's it mean um relating to television this is the second definition the first one is to or at a distance

so telekinesis is like i can i know what you're saying from a distance telephone is communicating from a distance yeah telecommuting is commuting is a distance commuting distance yeah Lindsay next time if you could use if you could use words that I know for my review that'd be great don't but don't abbreviate PPD please or else Brad will look like a jerk we often find ourselves on long car rides relocating to warmer weather don't blame you

Lindsay podcasts are part of a healthy diet for such activities who knows how we stumbled on ghost runners that's fun they don't even know but Jake and Brad have quickly become our favorite listen. Should we start from the beginning? End quotes. On a nearly 175 episode series. Never seemed so normal before.

Pro tip. While listening to some podcasts on 1.75 speed is recommended. Have you ever listened to 0.5 speed? Maybe it was the 14 hours of travel and the road was just breaking us. But we achieved rare laughing until you're crying when we stumbled upon it during the 14 hours of travel and the road was just breaking us, but we achieved rare laughing until you're crying when we stumbled upon it during the April 18th episode. It was like we had picked two friends up from the bar that had definitely been over-served

and they decided to talk about their cigs and their significant others, I think, and their decision-making styles. Too good. Keep it up and onward. That's awesome. Thank you, Lindsay. I'm going to do a YouTube comment of the week.

Ooh, fun. This one's from Alex Wood. He's from across the pond. So I'm going to say it in his accent. Cool. Because I'm really good at this accent. Yeah, yeah, yeah. All right.

I'm from London, England. And I've been listening to this podcast for over two years yet. Which is pretty strange when you think about it. Me sat there listening to two dudes in a part of the U S I previously never heard of talk about restaurants. I've never been to shops. I've never visited and the wrong type of football go Tottenham. Despite all that,

I find it hilarious. So I guess that says something to the Lou. All right. That was cool. That comment came in really early last week. And I saw it and I hearted it and I liked it. All those things. I sure did.

I hearted it and I liked it. In that order. I love you and I like you. Thank you, Australian man. And thank you for that accent, Brad. You're welcome. Nailed it. His name was...

Alex? Alex Wood. Oh. All right. Robert, you like to dangle? Oh, Wood. Oh. All right. Robert's like, does that mean I'm supposed to dingle? Oh, yeah. Let's do it. This is from Emily Schmidt.

She's back. Oh. How's it sound? Good. Good. I wonder if the Chiefs have drafted yet. Now and then I think of when Jake started touring. Good start. I like it.

Ran around meeting ghosties in real life. Showed us backstage in some tour life scenes told us about that time he had to pee he survived but that's an ache he still remembers Being a performer gives a certain kind of freedom Like a green room with a shower and some sweet snacks Sometimes Jake leaves as in isn't let back in Uber Eats don't always come to him But we'll admit that we are glad when he went touring Thank you

But you didn't have to kick him out Thinking all his fans are friends And Jake just has with no one And he don't even need your love But you treat him like a stranger And that back pat hurt No, you didn't have to stoop so low Have your ushers top his stuff out

And lock your back doors I guess they wanted to go home Oh, that's good. M. Schmidt. That reminds me, I got a story after this. Right, your voice sounds great. Good, because this is the girl part. Ready? Yes, I'm sorry, I didn't answer. Yeah, I'm ready.

Now Jake could always stop meeting ghosties in the lobby Yeah, yeah Have us all believing it is something that no one does But Jake don't wanna live that way Not when ghosties came from far away You said that we could hang out here Yeah! And he don't even need your love But you treat him like a stranger And that back pat hurt No, you didn't have to stoop so low Have your ashes tossed and stuffed out

And then change your back doors I guess they wanted to go home Jake is just somebody Loving you's don't know somebody Loving you's don't know somebody Loving you's don't know somebody. The venues don't know somebody. The venues don't know somebody. The venues don't know somebody. Jake is just somebody the venues don't know.

Hey. Wow. Emily Schmidt. Great job. Brad Ellis. Great job. That song's more fun than you think it is you really get to scream it there at the end i think a lot of people think of that song it's just like a one-hit wonder and it's like that ironic joke like huh kind of kind of funny to someone that i used to know but it is a great song yeah yeah the way he the way he belts it

is great i like that he screams it yeah i always appreciated um dream on um when steven tyler starts screaming towards the end of it yeah he says it a few times in a row he starts like yeah falsetto screaming that song is amazing it's awesome the great guitar solo in there i watched a like history of sports uh video that i downloaded off limewire to that one time and i've never, I've always thought that song was epic. History of sports. What a fun video. Yeah, it was wonderful. I had like, you know, like the Tanya Harding stuff and like, oh, cool.

You know, like Mike Tyson. Yeah, I was like, you know, do you believe in miracles? Yeah, sing with me, sing for the years, sing for the land. It was like, oh, yeah, there's a drive to deep left. Yeah, exactly. It was awesome awesome so i'm gonna try to find it great uh that the subject matter of that song just reminded me not a much of a story but

when i got to the venue in durham a few weeks ago i heard something i never heard the security guard was like hey we need to look through your bags like okay that's new and he's like also um you must be the guy we were warned about i I thought maybe he's like being playful. I was like, oh, what'd they say about me? He's like, you spend a lot of time in the lobby. I was like, oh, he's like, yeah, it got brought up during our like security meeting. And so we've made sure to tell all the ushers. And I was like, are they having to give warnings about me?

Has this been happening the whole time? Is this the one security guard who's told me? Or is this like a new thing? I think it's a new thing because Tom is about to step down as our tour manager so i think he's like starting to train someone else and trying to tell people either way i didn't like that they had to warn people now this guy that one of the performers tonight he's a lobby guy freak show he's a lobbyist he's gonna go out and talk to people about 10 to 15 minutes i know i know we don't get it we've never seen it he's a social guy i don't know he's from the midwest yeah he's from the midwest there weren't i don't get it. We've never seen it. He's a social guy. I don't know. He's from the Midwest.

Yeah, he's from the Midwest. There weren't, I don't know. I found it. I sent it to you. It's an ESPN SportsCenter 20th Century Montage. Man, it's awesome. Man, it's awesome. You're welcome.

been listening if you think you've listened since episode one not listen every episode but if you truly think you started when we started there can only be like 440 comments all right so there's more than that i know you're gonna be a liar is that right is that what you remember i think 440 which is crazy thing that we just's more than that. I know you're going to be a liar. Is that right? Is that what you remember? I think 440. Which is a crazy thing that we just put on an episode and there truly was no way to get feedback. There was no comments. There was no anything.

We didn't. It was like DM us, I guess, if you really want to. We didn't have a podcast Instagram though. It would be like. Yeah. It was like DM me personally. DM me personally if you liked it. I didn't tell anybody.

I didn't even tell my parents about it. Good. Like, cause like I remember you talking and saying in the first episode, like, I think the only people that are listening right now, Sarah, last names. And I was like,

well, no, they don't like none of my family knows about this. Like, I don't even know how they first started listening, but yeah, I don't even think Catherine was the first one. Like,

like I think she maybe eventually obviously did. Like she's very big fan now, but let's let you get your feet under. Let's see what's going on over there. Yeah. Cuties, you know, but yeah, man, it three years three years it's always fun always fun to think back year one we did that you know we're at chick-fil-a which is crazy that seems like it was yesterday the one

year anniversary yeah yeah and i mean it's it wasn't it was two years ago turns out it was not and i mean just the it's it's just been cool to see how we've just influenced people in a positive way. Um, and just how not only we've influenced people, but then people have been influenced by us. And then those people go on to influence other people within the community, which is just so cool and,

um, very humbling for us. So, um, seen a lot recently people in the Facebook group connecting like, wait, you listen to this podcast too. It's like,
