Starting point is 00:00:00 As you guys know, we just started a YouTube channel called Gene Schwartz Comedy about 13 months ago. And we're on the road to 10 million subscribers. I like that. I know. Do you like that? Yeah, we both like that. How much did Trey like it? One to ten?
Starting point is 00:00:15 Not as much. Maybe like a six. Yeah, we were trying to come up with something to like, I don't know, we keep going back and forth kind of on like the outros, if we should have on what we should say. And then we're like, let's make it like a running joke. And so, yeah, today we came up with, I think Brad came up with. Because he initially was like, you know, when we were at like, when I was at like 970,000, we like did a push to like get to a million.
Starting point is 00:00:37 And it worked. What if? Yeah, I remember I subscribed at that point. I was like, what if? What if we started being like, guys, we are so close subscribers. Uh, you know, we're at 127 right now. We are right there. We are right on the cusp. Just do your part and we will be there. And I think it started with 1 million and they were like, why not? Why not just go nuts with it? We're on the road to 10 million, which we are
Starting point is 00:01:00 this podcast. Also, if you're watching on YouTube, we like G Schwartz are on the road to 10 million subscribers we are getting there every single day every week we get closer every week yeah maybe we should say us and scott peckleball yeah that's right to the moon baby which he uh is not here with us today um he's in a better place but he did uh pass on a note uh he said please thank the ghosties for all the subscribers, views, and comments on the Peckleball channel and let them know that there could be some Jake and Rachel content soon. I've not signed an NDA yet, so I'm allowed to say that. I'm sure that's coming
Starting point is 00:01:33 tomorrow night. He's a big NDA guy. Yeah, he is. DFA NDAs. But the reason I brought up jean shorts is because... Oh wait, NWA. Sorry. Dude, my old license plate had NWA on it, and I did not like it. I did not like it one bit you also had a raiders uh decal around it you know yeah that one that one didn't cover the dmv but uh gene schwartz we you know probably once per shoot day we get tickled about something oftentimes
Starting point is 00:01:57 it's i can't pronounce something or um derrick is suggesting something wildly republican they were like no we can't say that just because it's conservative that doesn't mean every single joke has to be a political joke but for the first time maybe ever trey was on the outside looking in yeah uh he was the one biffing it and boy did we get to laugh we all know how much i love when jake messes up because it's very rare and then when when trey messed, I loved it just as much. I think I have to say is my favorite type of humor, especially when it's like a high capacity. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:02:30 I got to see what you appreciate so much. It's like, dang, this is kind of fun. It's like, Oh, this guy's really good at music. This guy's a singer.
Starting point is 00:02:37 Like he knows he's an actor. He's a comedian. He's got plenty of a normal background in life. Like how does he not, how is this disconnecting to him? So you were doing the woke parent part two, I think. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:02:49 And you know, we were doing like Rachel mad. We were doing like old McDonald, but we were changing the words. Yeah. Cause I'm a parent. So it was like, I'm indoctrinating my kid with like weird,
Starting point is 00:02:57 you know, like woke propaganda, right? Like liberal stuff. So you're like, Rachel Maddow has a show. And we were trying to figure out like what the lyrics were going to be. Yeah. And Trey's trying like every once in a while, Trey just cannot improvise or cannot think of it.
Starting point is 00:03:11 It's so funny to me because it's so rare. That's why I'm saying like that's why I can make fun of him, because it's like you are so good at so many things. Yeah. This isn't happening ever. Like I think on the pun expert, you remember that one? He really stunk on that, too. He was like trying to figure out anyway. But he's like he's like trying to figure out like, what do i what do we i don't know he's like how is this when does the b-i-n-g-o part come in and i was like what he's like the b-i-n-g-o and i was like no this is old mcdonald he's like yeah yeah yeah he's like, yeah, yeah, yeah. He's like, yeah, yeah. Old MacDonald has a show on MSNBC, B-I-N-G-O. And I'm like, no, no, those are clearly two different songs. That's bingo. That's like literally the letters for bingo.
Starting point is 00:03:56 And I don't know if I was laughing so hard that he thought you were kidding because he was like, okay, okay, okay. But like, wait, is it just later on? It's just, yeah. No, no. I was like, no, that's a completely, they're two they're two different songs he's like how does that one go i was like it's different man like remember the the yeah the uh old mcdonald's one's like with the cluck cluck here and you know like he's like he's like yeah yeah yeah but like but then when do they spell out that? It's like, no, dude. Not even like, Rachel Maddow has a show on MSNBC.
Starting point is 00:04:31 Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily. B-I-N-G-O. Right? Is that how it goes? Uh-oh. Ooh, I think this tight beat means that it's going down with some random thoughts in white. Me too. Midwest best friends eating fast food on repeat.
Starting point is 00:04:46 So come along, let's have some fun and go ahead, get on your feet. This is the Ghost Rubs Podcast. Just finished off doing something for the first time ever brad's got me out in public shopping for him and i am looking at the nutritional facts of something per brad's request i found myself i've never been in this situation i've not once you've never been in this situation oh sorry not for you oh for me yeah yeah i was gonna say surely you've looked at nutritional even for myself i'd say less than 15 times. Usually it's like pizza rolls. It's like, do these have meat? It's like, oh, soybean. Oh, great. We're good. That's awesome.
Starting point is 00:05:32 Yeah. I, uh, just about two weeks ago now. Yeah. You're a skinny little girl now. Oh my gosh. Barely recognized me, brother. Uh, yeah, just started intermittent fasting so i'm only eating from like 12 to 8 and it's 8 25 so uh zero calorie tea so i said i don't just like unsweet tea zero calories please and you delivered in a big way what do you guys if you guys aren't watching just listening uh here make it make a like hit it with your hand and they can probably hear how big that slap i mean that's not just a 16 ounce bottle. Like you can, like you can whip this bad boy around and it'll be just fine. Listen to the slosh.
Starting point is 00:06:16 You think that slosh is from a 16 ounce, 22 ounce bottle? No, this bad boy, 64 fluid ounces. It's 1.89 liters it's almost a two liter of of uh which which doesn't this doesn't look anything close to a two liter no this is not no shorter and skinnier like you that's oh man anyway i i kind of shared a little bit of my thoughts on yeah weight stuff and whatnot on Patreon. I'll continue to. But yeah, I appreciate some people have supported. Shout out to Courtney Moore. She's a friend of mine from way back in the day from Kansas City, when we first got married.
Starting point is 00:06:56 Not you and me. Not me and Courtney. Me and Catherine. Got it. She was in a Bible study with Catherine for a minute. I was in a Bible study with her husband. Anyway, I didn't even realize she listened to the podcast. Oh, cool.
Starting point is 00:07:06 And she's like, not only a big listener, she's on Patreon. And I'm like, holy cow, thank you so much. But she's a dietician. And she hit me up with this book that I'm reading called Everybody Matters. I think it was a puberty book from the fifth grade. I thought it was like a Planned Parenthood book or something. Yeah, the opposite of that. I don't know. But no, it's like a planned parenthood book or something yeah the opposite of that i don't know but um no it's it's awesome it's it's just a cool way because i think whatever i don't have to get
Starting point is 00:07:31 into it too much but the spirituality aspect of eating better and taking care of myself better i think is what is going to ultimately motivate me i don't think i'm as motivated by like whatever i i want to i want to be healthy for like pride sake a little bit, but I think mostly it's like, no, I think I'm not serving the Lord well with my body. Right. Cool. So it's like, yeah, I'm trying to work on that. So that is why I have a 64 ounce bottle of tea in front of me here.
Starting point is 00:08:00 Yeah, that was great. I wouldn't, you're going to hear me sniff on all episode. I went and got some allergy medicine for me and, uh, yeah, just a gallon, a gallon of tea for Brad. For whatever reason, you were like, I'm going to Walgreens. And I thought you said, and then I'm going to get a drink. Or maybe you just said, I'm going to get a drink. And I was like, yeah, great. Give me a tea and just give me a ton of ice in that.
Starting point is 00:08:16 Fill it to the brim with ice. And you go, what kind of Walgreens tea do you think I'm getting here? Which I mean, for the most the most part seriously like just to confirm like is this a tea that exists like is there a section of walgreens where i could find this just go like yeah the ice cooler you know in the front get a huge bag of ice yeah you know where your photos developed yeah they have an ice machine i know it's weird just ask them it's weird they got black and white and black yeah i don't know anyway but yeah here yeah, here we are. Here we are. Episode 184. Pretty much.
Starting point is 00:08:47 168, I think. Yep. That's right. And have you had a good week? Yes, I have. I'm honestly very happy to be here. Very happy to be out of the house. As sad as that sounds, we have been potty training, Bo, the last since Friday.
Starting point is 00:09:03 So I guess that's five days now. I remember you going through this with Hattie and it was not brother, brother, brother. Yeah. And so we went through with Hattie, but I think we tried later on with Hattie. And so we were like, okay, I think we learned the lesson with Hattie of like, they got too much of a personality. They have too much like, you know, they, they know they don't really need to do this. And so let's try earlier with Bo. Cool. And first day was a success. we were three for five so i mean not like you know you're making the playoffs if you're winning 600 yeah yeah 60 of your games but like uh you know we were a wild card team at that point so um and then the next day like katherine and i we've just both been on such on edge about the whole thing like and so
Starting point is 00:09:43 like we haven't ever really gotten frustrated with each other but we're just both been on such on edge about the whole thing. Like, and so like we haven't ever really gotten frustrated with each other, but we're just frustrated with the situation. It feels like we're frustrated with each other a lot. And so like, cause it's like, so, so the, the strategy on it, at least initially is like have him walk around with no clothes on. Like he's just acorn out the whole time, you know? Gotcha. And so, I mean, he's just waddling all around and you're just like, we're just literally like
Starting point is 00:10:05 basically hovering, not hovering over him, but like following him everywhere he goes just to see. I mean, I am, I've been staring at that thing more than I've ever thought I would. I bet. And, you know, just hoping, hoping, you know, nothing comes out. Yeah. And then trying to, anyway, it's, it's just been a, it's been a little bit of a tiring time with him because it's like, you don't want to ask him too much to the point where he's like resentful of the toilet.
Starting point is 00:10:28 But if you don't ask him enough, he probably he's not going to do it on his own. I just forget about it. You know, and so it's hard. It's one of those things like once you start, though, we're trying to finish it. Got to see it through. But the wonderful timing of it all is that Catherine is leaving for three days on Friday. One of you is heading in of town or out of town at any given time. Yeah. But this one is like Catherine by herself is leaving, which is very rare. I feel like she almost always goes with the kids.
Starting point is 00:10:55 Catherine is leaving to go to Nashville with some friends. And so it's me and the three kids with with naked bow, you know. So we'll see how that goes. Yeah. Two kids, one acorn. Yeah. Uh, three bundles of fun. Yeah. So yeah, we'll see how that goes. But, uh,
Starting point is 00:11:11 overall, no, the week has been just fine. I mean, it was like, it was like our first free weekend. Like you're saying, like we always have stuff going on.
Starting point is 00:11:17 Yeah. It was like, we have a free weekend. And Catherine's like, I think we should probably train both. I was like, okay. All right then.
Starting point is 00:11:24 So we like had a game plan actually Thursday night on the way to your comedy special. We, uh, like i think we should potty train beau this weekend i was like okay all right then so we like had a game plan actually thursday night on the way to your comedy special we uh talked talked through the whole thing we had a game plan and the game plan has been thrown out the window it's like it's like don't incentivize them don't do anything now it's like beau do you want to watch curious george and you get a marshmallow if you sit on the body it's in the bathroom like it's it's it's such a joke oh I would incentivize the daylights out of them. If the alternative is pooping on the carpet. Right.
Starting point is 00:11:48 Oh my gosh. We've only had one, uh, number two accident and it was outside on the deck. Oh, well that's the way you're supposed to do it. Yeah. Yeah. That's just nature. Yeah. That's good.
Starting point is 00:11:57 That's Stafford. That's called a Friday night. Yeah. I was going to say I did that in high school. That's right. Cow dipping and yeah. Deck sliding. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:12:06 But on Sunday morning, Catherine was like, I think you guys need to stay home from church to like work on this. I'll go to the church with the girls. You stay home with Bo. So Bo and I were literally outside. I mean, it's like 95 degrees outside. It's warm.
Starting point is 00:12:19 And I mean, he is, he's just bottomless and he loves doing this thing. We have that swing outside. He loves doing this thing where there's a bar at the top of the swing that he like holds on the swing and then kind of like rocks back and forth a few times and then lunges. And like, I catch him.
Starting point is 00:12:33 So I'm like sitting on the swing. Okay. You understand the swing? Yeah. It's like a little bench swing kind of thing. Yeah. I got it. And luckily nothing happened,
Starting point is 00:12:40 but the whole time, I mean, it would have gone straight into my mouth. Like any second, like I'm just, I was staring down the barrel of the snake. And luckily, yeah, nothing happened. But hopefully by this time, by the time you're listening to this, Bo is just perfect and everything's going great.
Starting point is 00:12:58 Either way, by the time you're listening to this, I am no longer wifeless. She's back home. Yeah. Praise the Lord. So have you had a stretch of time with all three kids and no wife yet this first time three i've had a few times with just the two of them i think and um yeah it'll be it'll be interesting wow especially because rosie you know she obviously relies on katherine for food and stuff and so we'll have bottles obviously but
Starting point is 00:13:20 not the same thing you know right one more transition into the comedy special you get it you get it so yeah it was fun uh so turns out all of my friends surprised me thursday night which was really really fun you were you were completely shocked and surprised it was uh yeah it was too bad roommate luke really blew it um the night before oh the night before or maybe it was too much for it was whenever we record the podcast last week because you were over scott was over before yeah okay so before we had talked about it on the podcast or after this was as soon as you guys left my house it was like 11 o'clock at night yeah he blew it um because i think rachel was like nervous you know she like, she came into the house. Remember?
Starting point is 00:14:05 And like, we were already talking about this. She's like, oh gosh, like, is it intact? I felt so covert. Is that the right word? I felt like I felt so sneaky. I was like, okay, see you guys have fun in Iowa. Rachel, see you later. See you when you're, see you when you're back from Iowa.
Starting point is 00:14:22 Dude. And Scott and I, you know, it's kind of like Dwight and Michael in The Office. Like, he has no idea. It's like in Dumb and Dumber where they're trying to like prank that guy. And they put all the hot tamales on his burger. Why don't you eat up?
Starting point is 00:14:37 Why don't you eat up? I'll tell you. I could have your burger. Justin, put that in. You got a long week to put this one in. Why don't you eat you open we'll tell you How's your burger oh That's the best all right see you
Starting point is 00:15:01 He has no idea That is funny to imagine. Yeah. And so, yeah, we get through that. And Rachel's like, OK, cool. And I will say Scott and I did not even talk beforehand about like, hey, hey, this is a surprise because Isaac had texted me personally and said, oh, by the way, this is a surprise. Don't tell Jake. Gotcha. Because, yeah, background.
Starting point is 00:15:20 Isaac texted like whatever, 12 of us, 15 of us, a ton of people and said, you're all invited to this thing, blah, blah, blah. I think it'd be awesome to honor Jake. You know, he deserves it. He's not going to do this himself, but obviously it'd be so fun to get together and celebrate him and didn't say anything in there about the surprise. So anyway, go ahead. Gotcha. Yeah. But, um, so we were very good up to that point. I had no idea. Cause I think I had texted, he was like, what do you want to do Thursday night? And I was like, I mean, you just want to play golf together. So I was like, we don't need to sit around and watch it.
Starting point is 00:15:50 Like, that's just like, I don't know. I'm just going to be relieved it's out. So whatever. Well, it's funny. Whatever. This is your story. No, I was going to say before Isaac had texted that I was planning in my head of like putting something out there to the ghosties of like figuring out some way to collaboratively watch it live together oh cool and like have like a
Starting point is 00:16:09 forum or something yeah so if you're upset about that not happening blame isaac blame isaac for being an incredibly good friend yeah exactly so sorry um anyway and then luke comes home after that it's kind of like a sitcom everyone's just popping into the house everyone's coming in out whatever i love back in the day with sitcoms, they would cheer when people would walk in. That's right. They would. You're right.
Starting point is 00:16:31 Just start doing that when people walk in, just clap for them. I think I do clap sometimes. If I know Rachel's coming in, I'll sit her. Yeah. Here we go. Keep going.
Starting point is 00:16:38 Keep going. My family does that too. It's awesome. But, uh, well then you guys leave. And so we're talking to luke and just me rachel and luke and then um some way or another i don't know i feel like we weren't really even talking
Starting point is 00:16:49 about it i don't know what happened but he's like yeah i think uh you know when everyone's together i think they might be chanting speech speech speech for you and i was what? And he's like, nothing. Oh, he realized it. And he just, this was like out of a movie. He just, he just starts chugging water and then he just goes to bed. He didn't say another word. It was like, it was like the nerdy kid in like the high school, like, you know, like hallway. He was like, do you want to go to prom?
Starting point is 00:17:22 And then like the hot girl, like doesn't hear him. She's like, oh, sorry. What'd you say? And then he's like, nothing. And then like leaves. then like the hot girl like doesn't hear him she's like oh sorry what'd you say and then he's like nothing and then like leaves i said you look pretty good night denise exactly yeah something along those lines i'm just like just leaving the situation and so he just chugged some water and left and then i looked over at rachel and she just looked so disappointed so she spilled it then no she was just she i think she was i don't know that was weird yeah man what's in that water yeah that's crazy and so i knew and i tried to play like i i don't know what did he even say you know good and rachel was like you know but we both knew
Starting point is 00:18:01 the other person knew every whatever it was fine um but then you really found out later right and then yeah probably like 20 minutes before scott's peck's wife texted me and rachel's like do i need to bring anything i don't even like what i don't even i don't even i didn't even read that i don't even know what you're talking about rachel like what i don't yeah so then rachel yeah this night was kind of interesting because seven o'clock hits well now i'll tell you what happens 654 hits and luke goes is it out and i was like yep released it at 654 i was like no it's out at seven i posted everywhere it's awesome um but seven o'clock hits and like
Starting point is 00:18:39 harrison and luke are watching it in the living room and i'm kind of like packing for iowa kind of in and out kind of listening to it like that's fine they're watching it's out there but right um all I've done is just look at this and edit this over and over and over I know what it looks like exactly what it looks like you know but it's fun that they're watching it and then the special is kind of over and they just kind of leave and like go to their rooms and drink a bunch of water and get out of there and so then I was like I guess I'll just finish packing and around that time was when Sam texted us like do I need to bring anything so it's like what is going on exactly and at that point also rachel's like don't look at your phone anymore okay so i was like all right and so i'm
Starting point is 00:19:14 just trying to like i don't know i'm just completely by myself and i can't look at my phone so i'm just like all right you want to look at your phone at this point you want to see the comments and like reactions of people and so of course i can't help it but i accidentally fall asleep on my bed all the lights are on my shoes are on and i fall asleep on my bed and luckily i wake up at like 8 15 and she's like hey do you want to come pick me up and go to iowa so i was like yeah was it that late that so you got there at what like 8 30 yeah probably 8 30 8 40 is when i finally got there and it's funny because i think the original plan no what was the original time? Rachel had like class, which there was so much like lying and like fake.
Starting point is 00:19:49 Like, I don't know what was true. You know, I was like, are you even in grad school? What is your name? She gets Rachel. I was like, OK, but she did have class from like 530 to 730. Maybe it was it was 830 that we were supposed to like be there by. Cool. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:20:03 Anyway, I just remember like we like rushed like we like we had katherine and i my parents were watching the kids and so katherine and i were going out to go gonna go out to dinner but we left our house late and so we're like we're not going there anymore we're going to longboards because we gotta we gotta make sure we're there before jake gets there yeah and then we get there yeah we're like have we checked his location and he's like he's still at home like yeah i was i didn't know i couldn't yeah it's not your fault at all um it'll be great though i walk in well first i walk in and i see through a mirror like placed on this like intake what would you call that it's table like entryway it was perfectly placed to where i just stare right at katherine and rachel and they don't
Starting point is 00:20:41 say anything and then i continue to walk in and then everyone else like says surprise. It's funny hearing them debrief. And afterwards, like we didn't talk, we didn't discuss is mere. Does the mere count? Right. Can we surprise through a mirror? We didn't talk about this. Catherine thought that was the biggest, most awkward deal ever. All right. She's like, Jake saw me first.
Starting point is 00:20:57 Oh, it was. Oh, two thumbs down. I don't know. I don't know. Oh, that was so fun. It was just walking in. Everybody was there. That was one of the
Starting point is 00:21:11 coolest things. You answer that. Is that you want to answer that? Oh, sure. Hey, this is Steve Triplett. Hey, what's going on?

Let's start recording.
Starting point is 00:21:36 Hey, what'd you think of that jingle that was written for you a few weeks ago? I'm too mad about how many times I listened to it. Yeah, too many times. I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too

Starting point is 00:21:49 I'm too I'm too I'm too I'm too So have you seen the Elvis movie? No, I haven't yet. Have you seen it? Yeah, I've seen it. And were you as ecstatic as Jake about it? I was. I did not want to see it because I didn't think it would be good. Because I'm a huge Elvis fan.
Starting point is 00:22:18 But I've got to go. And I was very impressed with it. Trish, who was not a huge elvis fan loved okay a few days later she actually took my mom and her mom out to see it uh because my mom had seen elvis in 1957 so well i always that that's always so cool when you hear about like yeah i saw elvis live like that's i there's got to be somebody out there right now that we need to go see live just so we can say that to our kids. You know, because that's so cool.
Starting point is 00:22:49 For me, it's Brad Ellis. Well, sure. Eventually people will say, I got to see, yeah, Brad Big Daddy Ellis live. And Steve Tripple is there too, you know, doing security. I've been in Kansas City to see you and you haven't been there. That's been very disappointing.
Starting point is 00:23:03 You what? Oh yeah, you were in Kansas City. They always ask anytime they're in town, like, are we going to get to see Brad? you haven't been there. That's been very disappointing. You what? Oh, yeah, you were in DC. They always ask. Anytime they're in town, they're like, are we going to get to see Brad? I told Trish, I don't think Jake realizes how bad we like Brad. And just your family.
Starting point is 00:23:13 I'm like, it's a little disappointing when we go and get to see Brad. Hey, well, let's schedule a time. I mean, you can stay at our house. We've got a guest room. I mean, we'd love to have you. I don't believe that. You're just saying that because of the podcast.
Starting point is 00:23:24 No, I'm not. I'm not. To be fair have you. I don't believe that. You're just saying that because of the podcast. No, I'm not. I'm not. To be fair, I think I would say that about almost anybody that I remotely know. I like hosting people, but I especially would like hosting you. I will let you gentlemen get on with your podcast. If you see my son around there, I didn't have anything. I was just going to talk to him. So he does not need to come back.
Starting point is 00:23:48 So you guys have a great time. Love your podcast. And boy, there was something I was going to leave a voice memo. For one, I don't know how to, and now I can't remember what I was going to leave it about. Yeah. Voicemails are great. Those always work too.
Starting point is 00:24:03 You guys have a great night. All right. Tell Trish hi. give her a hug for me all right we'll do all right see you there he is that was fun all right thanks for doing that sure yeah um but yeah i walk in to the surprise party and it was so cool i mean everyone was there everyone was there everyone was able to make it it was crazy and that was one of the coolest parts is yeah. Rachel's like, yeah. I mean, it was a lot of Isaac. Rachel did a lot of the hosting stuff, but I just, I just got gathered everyone. And I think 18 people, she's like, we texted 18 people and in 48 hours notice all 18 were able to make
Starting point is 00:24:37 it. Yes. Which is crazy. And I know it's not just like, Oh, that was lucky. I thought people made sacrifices. You guys, you know, got sitters and everything. So yeah, it was just the coolest thing that everyone was there. And we were just kind of hanging out for a while, which I was more than happy just to hang out. Yeah. And whatever. Oh, well, another thing. It was office like Kelly's birthday themed. Yeah, just great.
Starting point is 00:24:57 You know, the deflated brown, black, gray balloons, huge eight foot banner that said it is your comedy special. Go look at Rachel's Instagram if you want to see the the pictures of it yeah uh then on top of that um on the table there are pizza rolls there is puppy chow there is cut up watermelon there is honey butter chicken biscuits and there is chateau root beer milk yeah it was in an ice cream cake yeah i got oreo ice cream cake strawberry lemonade. Great for a guy that's intermittent fasting who already loves food. I'll tell you that right.
Starting point is 00:25:30 And cans of Dr. Pepper. It was amazing. I made the comment as soon as I saw it. I was like, I feel like a dog is about to be put down. You know, there's like, just go ahead, fatten him up. Like, it doesn't matter. Like a death row inmate. It's his last meal.
Starting point is 00:25:42 The only one I was surprised or didn't know that you were like so into was watermelon. And maybe you've mentioned that before, but I didn't know like, cause Jake or Rachel, like the night before was like, Hey, come hungry. We're going to have all of Jake's favorite things. And I was like, what does that mean? Yeah. What is Jake's favorite things? And it really was like, she did a great job with that. It was awesome. So that was great. After eating all those like weird concoction of food i made some comment to the gibsons uh peyton and garrett i was like my i was like i feel full but like in a weird way and and peyton goes oh like your heart i was like no um no just like my i just had a bunch of honey like trying to be sentimental water melody no what no ew no never um no just my stomach is gurgling that was a really funny like
Starting point is 00:26:27 thing in the moment that's great yeah but we just hung out for probably an hour and then um yeah next thing you know the special is like on tv and i was like oh gosh i don't know what to do that was gunner's do well i think a few of us were like are we gonna watch this thing or we're just gonna like talk and i was like i think gunner was like yeah let's get it on no that was great yeah and obviously i don't mind you guys watch it that's great but i was like i don't know if i should be in the room i don't want you guys to feel like you need to react a certain way because i'm in the room sure and so for the first 10 minutes rachel and i went down to the basement and uh like changed her laundry and like folded her clothes sure you did sure you did changing laundry huh
Starting point is 00:27:01 oh yeah yeah a little top loader charming huh i don't know how's that even that's that's a toilet paper almost almost tied got it gain you got some gains yeah uh good job trey yeah um no but that was and then like the last 10 minutes we went up and i think one one of Rachel's favorite parts of the night. And I enjoyed it as well. But she instead of watching the special, she watched our friends and how they reacted. Yeah. Especially Abby McGee.
Starting point is 00:27:35 Super expressive. Just smiled the whole time. Yeah. She was sitting right next to me. Go ahead. Well, no, you could tell us. Well, she come to me. She's so funny.
Starting point is 00:27:43 I mean, if you know Abby, you love Abby, first of all like she's just a perfect compliment to harrison just so quirky and funny and just herself whatever like multiple times you know we'd be watching the thing i mean we are like abby and i are so close to the tv three feet away from the tv and you know you'd say a joke and we'd laugh and she would laugh out loud and be like i thought that one was really funny. She would like tap you and like, look at you. Right. And I, I didn't want to ruin the vibe. I didn't want to like hurt her feelings, but I wanted to be like, you know, most humans just laugh to show that they're like, I understood that you thought it was funny. Cause you laughed,
Starting point is 00:28:16 uh, but she was like multiple times. She was like, ah, that one got me. That was funny. That one. I ended up laughing at. I was like, yeah, I thought you thought that was funny that one i i ended up laughing at i was like yeah i thought you thought it was funny because you laughed the universal language you know it is um yeah it was so funny watching her just because because i think correct me if i'm wrong but every single person there with the exception of maybe your roommates luke and spencer had seen your comedy live i yeah i bet you're right yeah and so like so of course it was funny to us but it's also like we've seen this before so we're not gonna like crack up like we did the first time yeah comedy is one of those things like i don't care how long it's been if you like
Starting point is 00:28:54 start to hear a joke you've already heard before by the time you get to the end of it you kind of know the vibe of the punchline if you don't remember like i kind of remember how this one right right i've been that way it's like i think this is i don't think i've ever seen this comedian and they start selling jokes like oh this kind of is like it's not as funny that way but yeah you guys are still i was curious how you were feeling about like is this weird for him is this like i was like but i feel like ultimately you're gonna appreciate no it's obviously i don't mind you guys all being that supportive and wanting to watch i don't know what i do but you guys enjoy yourselves do whatever you need to do you should have stood right next
Starting point is 00:29:22 to the tv and lip sunk the whole thing oh you know let's talk about all right here let's go back and forth five most annoying things i could have done while you guys are watching the comedy special i'll go first um every like six seconds i pause it and explain why i wrote that joke just like the bags okay so this one actually didn't even happen that's a made-up story yeah um well i mean they didn't ever say that to me but i saw instagram captions that said that and so i just retold it as if it happened to me yeah all right and here it is uh another annoying thing would be like downplaying how funny it is guys seriously you don't oh this part's stupid oh you i i was editing in 1 16th resolution so that's why that that edit right there like it's kind
Starting point is 00:29:59 of choppy i'm sure you recognize like uh just okay. So you can probably tell I'm not really talking to that guy, you know? Right. Like mansplaining the comedy. Yeah. Yeah. Just like, oh, you, well, whatever. I, this was good enough. Like I didn't, I didn't, you know, I didn't, I'm not a perfectionist.
Starting point is 00:30:17 Like all these different things. It's like, dude, we think it's awesome. Um, okay. Let's see what else. Okay. Let's say I'm watching it from the beginning. The very first punchline, I do like a really loud, like kind of like laugh at myself and it's like kind of funny. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:30:32 But then I do that every single time. After like two, it's like, all right, is he going to keep doing this? Yeah, or like, I'll try it. Yeah, what would be another good one? I think maybe like if you're just always like finishing. I just think it's so annoying when somebody's watching a movie and they say the quote before like the line actually comes. Like, oh my gosh, like keep the change, you filthy animal.
Starting point is 00:30:56 Watch this. And then he's like, keep the change, you filthy animal. It's like, I saw it coming because you said that. Like louder than the TV. The whole time you're like, oh, here comes the Baja Blast. Team Jacob, but from the Old Testament. This is a Bible joke, Bible joke, Bible joke. You guys are going to, or yeah, or just like bragging ahead of time.
Starting point is 00:31:13 Like, okay, you're going to love this one. Abby, Garrett, Brad, Catherine, and Luke, you're going to love this one. Justin, put the part in from the office where he's like, let me think about people that are going to get liposuction surgery real quick. Off the top of my head. Phyllis Stanley, Kevin Stanley,
Starting point is 00:31:32 Phyllis, Kevin. Oh, that's great. Anyway, it was awesome night. I felt so full in a weird way. And.
Starting point is 00:31:41 Oh, like your stomach. No, my heart. yeah, yeah. Like blood pressure. Great guy.
Starting point is 00:31:45 Like hypertension. Like it felt like my vessels were closing. It was really fun. It was a great night. We got to hang out for a really long time. And then I was led to believe the whole time that we were going to Iowa afterwards. So my bags are packed. Oh, I was charged.
Starting point is 00:31:57 I'm ready to go. Sure. And Rachel's like, no, that was just my way of getting you over here. I was like, well, I'm ready to go to Iowa. No, I don't know. You know, so she's like, actually, and I could tell she did not want to go. I was like, I'm ready to go to iowa no i don't know you know so she's like actually and i could tell she did not want to go i was like i'm driving so who cares and so we drove to iowa from like 11 to 4 30 a.m wow that night it was a long thursday you regret that like uh no i didn't and rachel was very glad that we did it yeah because we just got to wake up and we were golfing
Starting point is 00:32:19 by 8 30 a.m she's like this is great i'm glad you only got four hours sleep. Yeah, I think so. Wow. It was fun. What one one just very underrated story or like things I didn't think was going to be anything. At the end of the night, we were just joking around, whatever. We were making fun of Catherine. Yeah. She was like, I don't do it that way. I do it like this. It's like, that's exactly what I'm doing. Anyway, but as we were leaving, I rachel said like do you want to do you want to bring a balloon home with you for your kids and i was like yeah sure jokingly like taking one as we're walking out like we're outside like say we already said goodbye to everybody and katherine's like are you really taking one of those balloons i was like i don't know i just took it and so we i was like i'm just gonna put under harrison's windshield wiper oh nice uh and then he sent me
Starting point is 00:33:03 a video later he's like you know he's like brad this has been on my freaking car for 10 minutes and it won't come off he's got like the windshield wipers going at full speed and it's like little like deflated balloons just just hanging there in the windshield uh so i'll put that on patreon it's pretty funny he didn't see it like when he got into his car he's like when he started driving he's like i'll just knock it off he's like this is so stupid that's what i remember this way this is some this is so stupid it's just just this flaccid little balloon just dangling there anyway this is so stupid so anyway yeah all in all it was really fun night for all of us so it was great making it happen yeah thanks isaac thanks rachel thanks friends great friend group it is such a blessing to be so supported. It's crazy.
Starting point is 00:33:46 Yeah. Oh, there was a part of the night where I feel like everyone was looking at me to say something and I was like, oh, boy, I don't know what to say. Yeah. Like Harrison was like, run across the stage one last time. I was like, OK. And I Luke was right. I did end up having to give a speech. Not really, but yeah. I just had to say two sentences. But
Starting point is 00:34:01 it was nice what you said, though. You're like, I wish you guys had you didn't say better jobs. I wish you had more easily celebratable jobs or something like that two sentences, but, um, it was nice what you said though. You're like, I wish you guys had, you didn't say better jobs. I wish you had more easily celebratable jobs or something like that. Like, Oh yeah. To celebrate you guys too. Yeah. It's like my job. It's very clear when to celebrate things.
Starting point is 00:34:13 I was like gunner, whenever you get a promotion, like let us know and we will have a party or something. Cause that's kind of just what it feels like.

I, uh, kind of on the same vein. I don't know. I helped Kevin and Alison move on Saturday morning a little bit. That's kind of the same thing. Yeah. I mean, it's just supporting friends, I guess, like whatever, but, but like the deeper thought, like after I did that, like, of course,
Starting point is 00:36:48 it's not the most fun thing in the world to help somebody move. There's always like, we've talked about like those jokes of like, Hey, will you help me move for five hours? We give up your back and I'll buy you pizza. Of course that's like, yeah, not a fair trade, but I think that we need to try to start normalizing, like helping friends out more often because just as a married person doing housework or house projects or anything with Catherine is so hard and like so often ends in conflict. But if Isaac comes over and the three of us do it or like even just Isaac and I do it, you know, or like obviously more hands obviously make work lighter. Like I, I just think that like, it'd be fun to like get a group of guys. It's like, Hey, this month is gutters month, like twice a week, two Saturdays, we're going to his house and we're doing whatever project he needs us to do. That's a cool thing.
Starting point is 00:37:33 Isaac's month, you know? And like, because yeah, you can get so much more done if you just have a few more hands, especially when they're, that's a fun idea. Yeah. So I think we need to normalize whatever that is normalized, supporting your friends better and just like serving them i guess i'm just not always good at like seeking that out if somebody asks like of course i'll help you move something if i'm free but like i think it'd be more fun to just like have it almost in the calendar stamped like hey whatever you need we're coming over yeah if you don't just hang out we'll hang out but like if you don't if you want some move you know yeah 100 you know bags of mulch great we'll do that too so that's fun what should we call this this group this ensemble um of dudes supporting dudes home deep
Starting point is 00:38:13 bros what do you think home deep bros is pretty good um it doesn't always have to be home deep we can go to lows we can call it can call it Bros. Lowe's. Sports bras. What's more supportive than a sports bra? Oh, yeah, sure. And bras. Or we could just play sports. Or we could just wear athleisure.
Starting point is 00:38:36 I don't care what we do. No matter what. It makes sense. Sports bras. Home Depot. Home Depot. Home Depot. Home Depot. Home Depot.
Starting point is 00:38:40 Home Depot. Home Depot. Home Depot. Home Depot. Home Depot. Home Depot. Home Depot. Home Depot.

That was really, really good. Testosterone homes. Dang. That's good. On fire. Okay. And when they say B-I-N-G-O, they say. Testosterones.
Starting point is 00:38:55 It doesn't have to just be guys. Obviously, the girls could do stuff, too, but whatever. It's just like. They're going to come with their own name, though. Like if you're out there and you understand the idea of like doing something with your spouse and how much harder that is sometimes than doing it with your friend like isaac yes isaac gunner like gunner's help me put up uh christmas lights before and i think isaac has too and both times it's like oh that was so much better than like like even like katherine's so nice and like tiptoes around like saying anything mean but i just get so easily frustrated
Starting point is 00:39:24 like when i'm already in like an awkward position whereas Whereas with Isaac, I think it's easier for me to laugh about it and whatever. So sure. Anyway, that's a great idea. Testosterones. I was just looking down at the timestamp and I was like, this would be the time if we were still doing the K-Life ad where it's like, I should say it now. Yes. But we don't have any kind of ad, but I wanted to say, I jotted down a note. So I talked to Cody Terrell and I was just like, hey, thanks for, you know, partnering with us. Hope it was worth it. And which the drawing is probably going to be right around when this episode comes out.
Starting point is 00:39:54 I don't know. We'll have to stay tuned on that. But anyway, I just thought I would share. I don't think he'll mind. So we did two, you know, like episodes advertising the K-Life raffle. And he said it was a huge success they made 1200 no way uh in the raffle so i was like that is so cool so thank you guys ghosties first and foremost for doing that you guys are also very supportive people and two i think what that says is if you're
Starting point is 00:40:16 looking to advertise with the ghost runners yeah ghosties come through they don't have to even if it's not buying anything but just brand awareness whatever people are listening people paying attention i still get messages from people being like hey what's the is there still a ghost runners code for humble salt totally and we've done humble salt ads like maybe three or four times they got their money's worth yeah as i think almost anyone actually i know uh simply fit page she is always getting her money's worth constantly from people signing up so well yeah i just i yeah i'm so appreciative of this community because yeah they will support who we like ask them to support you know as long as it makes sense for their life, obviously.
Starting point is 00:40:49 Like they're not going to. Yeah. Hey, guys, we're on this new crypto. We'd love to get to be a part of it. It's pretty volatile, but if it takes off, it could really take, you know, we're not doing ads like that. It's called testosterone. Coin testosterone. Let's think about one for you.
Starting point is 00:41:04 You pulled your no groin yeah um strained coin yeah anyway uh what was it oh we had a tinder coin there you go thanks perfect um come on you got it i like just tinder coin okay uh no no let me get one um you got it no i don't want to say it it's really bad ready ghost theorem that was bad i told you really anyway what were you gonna say oh i was gonna say we got hit up for a jean shorts potential ad and we did say no to that one it was like yeah it was something like hey for every everybody signs up for a jean shorts potential ad and we did say no to that one it was like yeah it was something like hey for every everybody signs up for these stock options or stock company or something it was hard to even comprehend i don't think anybody's gonna do that let's not
Starting point is 00:41:54 let's not mess with that but um yeah overall thank you guys for all your support of yeah anything and everything if you're wanting to support with that or support our show, you can send us something on, uh, the ghost runners podcast at gmail.com or Instagram, uh, or anything like that. So Facebook, uh, let's see,
Starting point is 00:42:14 uh, text message, regular phone. What's up. If anyone's listening and in Guatemala. Yeah. Um, Twitter group, me, If anyone's listening in Guatemala. Yeah. Twitter.
Starting point is 00:42:29 Group me. Yeah. Group me. Okay. Snapchat. Move on. I think Rachel has Snapchat if you want to find her on there. Can you tell a story, please?
Starting point is 00:42:38 Zanga. Yes, I can tell some more stories. Let's see. Oh, I got to talk about a few different ghosties i think i want to do this more often so just hold me accountable to that but i i want to brag on a few ghosties real quick uh well one of them's not a brag one of them is just crazy coincidence i think i texted you earlier yes we came out today with the gene shorts video conservative dads on vacation or conservative dads on the beach. Um, and it was just like, I think I talked about it a while back when I went to the beach,
Starting point is 00:43:09 we filmed it there. Um, Josh Brumfield, who is every man with a beard in Kansas city. You don't remember him. Uh, genuinely, like I get like ads for guys, like, like men's, like where like men's clothing on Instagram. And I'm like, there's Josh Brumfield, just another home depro. And anyway, he, he messaged me. He's like, dude, crazy coincidence.
Starting point is 00:43:30 I stayed in that exact same house in 2019. And he sent me a picture of it. And I was like, is that the same house? And I was like, it really is the same house. Like I even confirmed with Catherine. I was like, she's like 100%. That's the house that we stayed in. That is crazy.
Starting point is 00:43:43 Crazy. Goldfroze, Alabama, same exact house. Cause there's only probably four or five houses that are that big. Cause we have such a big, you know, group of people. And the fact that like, yeah. He also had a big enough crew to have to use that house. Yes. And he listens to our podcast. Like there's only a select amount of people that even could say that they stayed in one of those houses. And anyway, the odds are not great. That's impressive. So that was crazy.
Starting point is 00:44:04 Shout out Josh. Shout out Josh. And the next shout out goes to Isabel Martinez. I also shout out Izzy. I also showed you this. I'm pulling it up. Of course, my computer's dying now. Oh, is this the girl? Yes, dude. I couldn't believe this. You just dropped this in the middle of a jeans work shoot today. I was like, dude, what? She got a tattoo she got a ghost runners tattoo and it's it's like like i think there was one other person a while back holler at me you know let me know who you are all right that got uh a ghost like kind of on the back of their neck i don't know what the yeah the back of their neck kind of like brain stem where where the hair kind of like covers it up and it's like that's a ghost and i think it's maybe ghost runners but who knows if it's like could be a ghost it could be an indie blue
Starting point is 00:44:48 like a cute like ghost thing isabel i'm talking like prime time right on your inside of your forearm prime real estate is the forearm also this part or is it just this part oh it's both okay inside of your forearm i mean the ghost runner's logo right it is a ghost running with a headband on no way around it that's a ghost that is a ghost runner it is right there and i i just responded no way and she said yeah and i just said what this is amazing uh but she said some really kind things she basically said in long story short that our podcasts you know we've heard this so many times and it never gets old, like how they've had some tough times and you know, our podcasts has helped
Starting point is 00:45:29 them get out of this, you know, rut in their life in one way or another. So she decided to throw it on her forearm. And that's just insane to me. Like how fun and how cool is that? So, so this is probably not the best time time but we do have to announce now that we're gonna do it right now i thought we were gonna wait till the end of it okay let's just do it now so izzy got the tattoo we mean a lot to her this podcast got her out of a lot but this will be the last ghost hunters episode um we are disbanding both as co-hosts and as friends um yeah we're each getting canceled individually for different things. It's kind of crazy.
Starting point is 00:46:06 Like the timing, like it really is like this speaks to our chemistry that even when we're not trying to get canceled for different things at the same time we do. I, I'm not going to get into what kind, but I, I'm both a victim in a, what's the opposite of victim?

Starting point is 00:54:11 that's just a guess that sounds kind of right that sounds like a ridiculous thing they would say on the office that sounds right that's a good enough guess if we were in a comet coffee and only had 20 seconds left i'd say yeah write down circumcision right right right down uh okay next question these are getting harder. Okay. In The Office. Oh, good. Stanley expresses a, I'm sorry.

Starting point is 00:56:06 but I'd say write it down D'Angelo Jeremetrius Vickers maybe it's something
Starting point is 00:56:13 with that many syllables I think okay okay next question who won hottest in the office at Michael's last Dundies

Starting point is 00:57:38 Because it's like your side is worthless or that he gets it. He trades a thumbtack for a candle. And he's like, you're can't, that candle's worthless. Just like your sign. If you don't have this thumbtack, nice, something like that. Good okay we have three more here meredith has a phd in what oh this is

Starting point is 01:02:45 am. You can feel it. You can. Yeah. Just like the way they talk about it. Like the way they kind of glance a few times. It's like, yeah.
Starting point is 01:02:50 Like I remember one time I told my parents, I was like, those people were there talking about me right now, which feels like such a weird thing to say. I would only say it to like Rachel or maybe my parents or you or something. Cause it feels, that's a weird thing to say and weird thing to like, but you can,
Starting point is 01:03:03 you can feel it. But like I said, yeah, like six for six, you know, doing this this and so i kind of saw this happening and um i just kind of gave him a head nod i was like what's up and they're like dude is this you and then they show me like the gene torts profile picture and uh i was like that is that's me and my buddy brad that's brad um that skinny guy there is brad he drinks zero calorie tea i'm the one with the hair on the left the hair i got hair but uh they were like oh okay cool my mom loves you guys i was like oh

Starting point is 01:04:16 the little the cylinder that normally is in spring so just just testing the torque of the toilet no no no eight pool balls a little little TMI, but whatever. Not really. But I had gotten done. Okay. The paper was out. And so I flushed. And I am very proud of how good of a husband I am in the sense of I always change out the
Starting point is 01:04:35 toilet paper roll if it's empty. I don't know if you should be like. I'm proud of that. Proud of that. I think that's just how it should be. No, no, no. Just wait. There's people.
Starting point is 01:04:43 I'm very proud of myself. I close the garage door when I get home. Like you take out the trash, you know, like stuff like that. I'm just like, take out the trash is good. Like always unload the dishwasher immediately. That's good. OK, so if you're out there, take a picture of your toilet paper roll empty. That's still on the toilet paper.
Starting point is 01:05:01 Got it. The cardboard, because I think it's more common. Maybe it's not. Maybe it's just i feel like for a while like in our marriage like it would go like a day or something it's like why haven't we just just just switch it out real quick it doesn't take that long yeah if for some reason i kept my toilet paper in the basement i'm like this is a hassle but i keep it it's right there 18 inches from where it goes it's one of those it's one of those small things it's like it's
Starting point is 01:05:21 an adulthood win kind of thing of like i'm gonna do this right away switch that immediately like literally immediately like because we know that like a pit crew what'd you say like a nascar pit crew yeah exactly like i mean like literally we know how strong my toilets flush is dude yes the the hallway one yeah and so i flushed it and then i immediately go to grab the toilet paper kind of, you know, have it kind of has a spring. So it's like, Oh,
Starting point is 01:05:47 totally. And I, I pushed it in to get it out and then it kind of angled it out and then it just like flipped up and it just, before I could even react at all, it went into the toilet and just ride into, you know, who knows?
Starting point is 01:06:01 Yeah. Um, and so what a random thing to have to replace yes dude that's annoying and what a random thing to have to get some guy to come to your house and like yeah make sure it's not gonna clog up anything for 175 dollars oh i like katherine's like we can't use that thing until we get it fixed and of course i'm like let's risk it let's just see like yeah and she's the more responsible one i i changed the paper towel or toilet paper holder but she's the one that says we should probably call somebody
Starting point is 01:06:30 so i think i legitimately would have been like okay let's just not poop in this toilet for like a week or two you know and like let it kind of you know go through some flushes but not put it through any trials right and then like i'm sure that'll be fine i googled it a few times and like everything that i saw people were using like pretty serious like industrial tools to work on it and i was like i'm not gonna mess with that i'm just gonna call somebody so well no you're not the first person to do it yeah well usually it was like like all the videos i saw were like yeah my kid dropped his dinosaur down the toilet yeah you know our kids were playing and they they were yeah they threw stuff down there you didn't't see any Reddit threads about my adult husband.
Starting point is 01:07:07 Who thinks he's really proud of himself for doing this. The spring loaded toilet paper holder just flushed it. I mean, the whole thing probably took two seconds. Oh, it sounds so swift. Yeah. And I think I just, yeah, right away I just go, oh no. Oh no. Yeah, it just vanishes.
Starting point is 01:07:24 You're like, well, I mean, there's no getting that back. Of course, that's not a fun thing for Catherine to hear. Like what happened in just vanishes you're like well i mean there's no getting that of course that's not a fun thing for catherine to hear like what happened in the bathroom that you're like i'm fine it's the toilet paper roll spring anyway spring roll i should have said spring roll um i in a similar uh vein to this story something happened to me me. Rachel and I, on our way back from Iowa, we stop at a quick trip and I... Sure.
Starting point is 01:07:53 And I go into the quick trip. I go to throw something away in the trash can as I'm about to go to the door and I see oh, below the trash can is one of those things where you can like uh clean your windshield off with those like usually blue liquid little just like squeaky things yeah and i was like oh fun random spot for that to be like under a trash can i think they're normally
Starting point is 01:08:15 like yeah you know breastplate high or so next to a gas tank or something this is like gas station side door whatever i was like you know what could use it been hitting some bugs on the way back from iowa okay okay so i take it out of the thing and then like it probably wasn't a good sign there were like a few like june bugs attached to it yeah it's just summertime i'm sorry just kind of scrape them off and there's something else kind of on like the squeegee but i use another squeegee to scrape that i'm like all right i'm sure it's clean. All right. Good. No, whatever. And I like where this is going. I go over to start, you know, I start like really releasing the fluid out of the windshield and just instantly it starts smelling so bad. It starts smelling really, really bad.
Starting point is 01:09:00 Like what? What's it smelling like? Let's just say in my podcast notes, I wrote down two words. Poop juice. Oh, really? I am. I am decently confident that someone took a dump in this bottom, bottom trough of this trash can where the, like the windshield, you know, cleaner fluid goes. Oh, because I didn't even tell Rachel that.
Starting point is 01:09:20 And then she made the comment later. She was like, same car. She's like, it smells bad. I was like, yeah, it's my freaking windshield my freaking windshield I you know cleaned it with poop earlier so did you go around to like the the stalls of the gas station and like get some real good good juice and you know for some reason I didn't cross my mind I was like well I mean I can see better yeah so I mean it was fluid as fluid I mean you're in sterile. I bet poop juice is too. Yeah, I was kind of like, dang, that is a bummer.
Starting point is 01:09:48 Okay, so clarifying real quick. Do you think that that squeegee, though, was in the right spot? Or was it just a throwaway squeegee and it was just a bunch of trash all over? No, I think it was in the right spot. I mean, it looked like a holster for it. I saw another trash can that looked like that. It looked like everything was right. Just somebody pretty nimble got down low, but it seemed possible. impossible i'm gonna take a chance here and ask you a question what state were you in when this happened i was in bethany missouri
Starting point is 01:10:15 dang good good work would have never happened in bethany kansas good work that's funny um our boy geo rainbolt he posted about missouri and kansas did you see that no i don't i've seen you saw it did you see that thank you for thinking that i i'm that connected to things he posted like oh dude it's a fascinating video which is like five tips to know where you're at in geoguessr and a lot of them were like i mean such crazy stuff he's like okay if you're in kyrgyzstan uh they use two different drivers for the google streetcar one of them was shorter than the other so you could see in his rear view mirror or his side view mirror like it's pointed more at the tire so that driver drove in southern kyrgyzstan so you know you're in this it was like crazy so he's like memorized the look of the like the profiles of each driver i mean it's like
Starting point is 01:11:04 almost any like bit of information in that image. He has like a system where it's crazy. Like, you know, this driver grew a beard about three weeks into driving for Google. And so he's like on the East side of India. You can see the reflection or you can see the shadow of his beard. It's basically like that. He was like, there's a country, some African country. They have a, uh, or there's a few countries that are like more dangerous.
Starting point is 01:11:25 A lot of them in Africa, but they have a a car like a security guard car following Google Street View. So sometimes that's a giveaway. OK, you're probably in one of these countries. OK, basically, like in this specific country, they didn't know where they're going. So the security guard has a map, has a map laid out on the dashboard that you can see.
Starting point is 01:11:41 It's nice to give it anyway. Aside from these like crazy tips, one of them was just on how to know if you're Missouri versus Kansas. And it was like the. That'd be a funny thing to speak. All right. So a lot of people get confused. A lot of people say front license plates.
Starting point is 01:11:54 No, it's not that. Look at the poop juice in the gas station. Nobody was like Kansas has one like sunflower and all the like blue like highway signs. Sure. Missouri has like three flowers coming up. Yes. So honestly honestly that was not very impressive at all compared to the other four things i was like hey missouri kansas got a shout out that's yeah yeah all the other things were amazing wow well yeah i'm sure that in the u.s they have so many different drivers that drive
Starting point is 01:12:16 for them right like thousands yeah you're not gonna get much info from that yeah honestly anywhere in north america is so hard it's so hard to know if even if you find out you're in canada it's like this could be anywhere in canada you find out you're in the united states this looks like every suburb you know you're just guessing dude i was thinking about canada the other day and it's like good for you you know montana minnesota they just seem so high up there so cold and then you realize there's a whole country of people that live even farther north than them. I was just talking to Rachel's grandma this weekend because when I met her, she just had knee surgery.
Starting point is 01:12:50 So I kind of like my idea of her was kind of like immobile. But then I saw she was up walking around at church. She looked good. You know, I was like, oh, I have a wrong idea of her in my head, I guess. And I learned she's like, yeah, I was out of town last weekend. I was fishing in northern canada northern canada i was like she's like yeah it was a 12 and a half hour drive and then a 45 minute flight you can't even get there like by roads oh you should have flew first though right no flew second
Starting point is 01:13:14 12 and a half hours to northern canada something like that no northern yeah i feel like canada's huge oh you think be longer yeah who knows maybe bonnie drives pretty fast i don't know yeah but either way i was like yeah you just never hear of anyone going to northern canada much less someone who's like 80 years old good for that was amazing yeah obviously by canada too recently because like i i i think my my stupid brain thinks that like uh the country or like the the weather resets when you go to a new country so it's like reset like so southern canada is warm yeah yeah like like like canada right now it like there's parts of canada that are like in my head 150 you know really really hot like yeah super hot but i think everywhere in canada is really cold because
Starting point is 01:13:55 it's all north of the northern parts of the united states totally so just things i think about i'm trying to see how far the drive really is from like northern canada's huge right sorry we could not calculate directions okay maybe i went a little too far north may not be civilization would you look up i just like clicked a random like area in northern canada so cannot calculate driving directions well google maps if you can't calculate driving directions who who can? Calculate it to the border and then calculate from the border up. Oh, dude, it's so far. You're right.
Starting point is 01:14:31 It's so far. It's got to be 12 hours to the board. Like Josh Madison lives in Montana and it's like a 20 some hour drive from Kansas City to Montana. Yeah, this looks like anywhere between seven and nine hours, you know, to get to Canada. Honestly, I may have zoned out a bit during our conversation i don't know i was on about three hours of sleep when i first saw her i'm gonna miss some things or like i said we don't know how fast she drives you get older and you know the time is precious you don't have time for the speed and you know that if you get pulled over
Starting point is 01:14:59 like they're not what are they gonna take it like yeah give me a ticket i dare you um okay i'm out of the inheritance i have a few more just ideas just ideas just ideas that i want some feedback could be from you could be from the ghosties go nuts um one of the patreon idea uh it's a very simple thing that like a very easy content idea um would anybody be interested out there that has kids? Uh, if I recorded myself reading a book every night to bow and I posted it on there. So it's like a, it's like a Brad reads a book and you can, you can play it, uh, when you're driving. Cause, cause Hattie right now, the idea is that Hattie is really into just like, like they have like podcasts out there that are like very amateur.
Starting point is 01:15:42 Like it feels like sometimes they're done by 18, 15 year old girls. Really? They're like, I'm going to read Amelia Bedelia goes to school. And it's like this really bad microphone. And like, but she loves it.
Starting point is 01:15:53 Like she just loves listening to books as we drive. And so I was like, maybe somebody out there would enjoy it. You know, it'd just be like this raw thing. And every once in a while you hear Bo, you know, chiming in sharp.
Starting point is 01:16:04 That's kind of fun. Might as well. Right. For other parents, other kids, who knows knows i don't think i would do it as a video just to protect my children i guess a little bit i don't know but anyway uh that's one idea and then the other idea maybe we should flesh out a little bit more before we talk about i kind of mentioned it to you earlier uh but it's just an idea just an idea just an idea um but i think it'd be fun to do a very small, like live show tour of some sort, uh, where we would record, we would choose a few cities around the United States. And I don't know, I don't know how exactly the timetable would work. I don't know if we would do one every month or if we just choose, like, we're going to do four
Starting point is 01:16:41 weeks in a row of traveling or whatever. And we just go to a few different concentrated cities and we sell tickets to these live shows and record a podcast in front of people. It's fun. Fun idea. Kind of recreating what we've done in Kansas City twice, but in a different city. But just outside. Yeah. Like going to them, you know.
Starting point is 01:16:57 Do a Chicago, do a Middle East, do a South. Yep. Do a Utah. Northern Canada. Northern Canada. So it's not that far to drive. Yeah. those are ideas I'm an idea. Mm-hmm. I was driving
Starting point is 01:17:09 With Rachel's dad this weekend and you know, I'm just as I have so many questions doing him like just I think Tim was in The back just need to ask a question or just just hanging out it was in the back to the back So that yeah, it's like I took Rachel's parents out to dinner And turned off my location for rachel uh and we're talking no i remember sorry just i remember emailing my father-in-law when he was my girlfriend's dad at the time and being like hey do you mind if i just spend some time with you and just talk this weekend when i'm in town he's like yes would love that and then i remember katherine like was going out on an errand and he's like you Gary is his name Gary the guy in the conservative dad video yeah he's like oh you guys leaving on a little errand and
Starting point is 01:17:50 Catherine's like yeah we are and he looked at me he goes you going too I go nope and he goes okay so anyway go ahead I would have been like well I wasn't intimidated until now until you nodded I was I was pumped I was I was like, we're on the same page here. Yeah, no, that does fire me up. That's awesome. But we were driving, you know, I just have all these questions about farming and corn. Because it is interesting.
Starting point is 01:18:12 I just don't know anything about it. And, you know, Mike, I haven't explained, like, different things to me. Why would they do this here and not here? You learn about Milo? Don't know about Milo. Oh, okay. Maybe that's a Kansas thing.
Starting point is 01:18:22 Go ahead. But, you know, there's all you can see. It's just like either beans or corn everywhere. And then there'd be, every now and then, there'd be fields that don't have about milo okay maybe that's a kansas thing go ahead but you know there's all you can see is just like either beans or corn everywhere and then there'd be every now and then there'd be fields they don't have anything in them they just look just lame kind of just grass and so i was like so why aren't they farming this and he said oh that's called that's like a crp uh area okay it's like con conserve reservation property conservation conservation reserve property, something like that. So basically, the government has kind of a program where it's like, we don't want to farm everything. It's a little bit better for the wildlife or for the water, for irrigation, for a number of things. If you leave some areas unfarmed.
Starting point is 01:18:56 So the government will pay you exactly what you would have earned if that was corn or if that was beans to just do nothing. My idea, let's just buy a, just be CRP farmers. That's all we do. We don't have to know anything about farming. We just convince the government like, yeah, I'm really wanting to, but if the price is right, I won't. So they're like, they're not government owned. They're just, no government subsidizes or government pays you out. Yeah. To not farm. So that's my idea and steve loves it he's like that that's a good idea just be solely a crp farmer yeah i wonder how yeah how you can like convince the government or not because like that's a risk that you're taking every time i mean you're gonna have two acres at
Starting point is 01:19:35 the end of this podcast well that's what yeah you do now you're starting to get nervous now some of the tattoo people 30 minutes ago like i don't know now the government's gonna have their hand in this so yeah i want to be a CRP farmer when I grow up. Oh, interesting. Seems so easy. I haven't heard of that. I've been to, there's a tall grass reserve, tall grass prairie reserve.
Starting point is 01:19:53 Tall grass, right off the fast road? In Kansas, yeah. And it's awesome. Like, it's just like this, this nature, like it's not a national park, but it's similar. Is it Native American? No, I don't think so. It's just, I mean, it's not a national park but it's similar is it native american no oh i don't think so it's just i mean it's just owned by i mean it's kansas is native american in history so it's like on the
Starting point is 01:20:11 prairie which is kansas kansas i mean if you're talking america what isn't native american really ah deep brother thank you melting pot woke parent here that's cool though okay i like it crp crp farmer he's like some people call it cpr which doesn't make any sense forget nfts we're going crp yeah so there's my idea of the week great what any of those ideas let us know what you guys think yeah they're all kind of similar stuff uh this has been a thing for a few weeks now and i keep reading to say anything about it um trey and i are going back out on the road uh kind of a working on material little not even really tour but just working on material just comedy club dates trey came up with the name help me help you it's like oh that's kind
Starting point is 01:20:53 of a fun name you know because i think you still need to brand it a little bit it's like yeah help us kind of figure out what works and what doesn't and so um i think they're all on trey's website but just to get you guys excited, Virginia Beach. Wet those beaks. Huntsville, Alabama, Orlando, TBD. I don't know where that is. Is that in the CP CRP CRP? So that's probably like Nebraska.
Starting point is 01:21:15 Uh huh. That's in Nebraska. And then Corpus Christi. That's fun. Oh, go hooks. And then Des Moines. Oh, yeah. The entire I mean, Coop extended family will be at the Des Moines. Oh, yeah. The entire I mean,
Starting point is 01:21:25 Coop extended family will be at the Des Moines. Just rowdy. Yeah. So if you have any one of those areas, we will soon. I feel like I mean,
Starting point is 01:21:34 probably should be those because it's usually a smaller venue, right? That's true. But we also do like four shows in a weekend. You do. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:21:41 OK, so yeah, still guys by still, still, still, still, still, still, still. That's fun. So fun so yeah it's fun great it also reminds me i need to work on stand-up material i need to figure out what to say for all that is coming up it's funny okay that's all my i have one more note cool uh it's not that exciting but um long story short i sold a table the other day got a table sale from a woman who just moved back from california to kansas city uh they have season tickets to the chiefs but they are about to have a grandbaby that's this is our crp we will take them for them pretty much pretty
Starting point is 01:22:17 much she's like she's like so reserve she's like uh yeah we'll be in california a lot because this grandbaby and uh we don't really like you know the cold anyway so like any game in december we'll give you your tickets what what do you think i was really excited before i said december i know i i at first i was like yeah i'll take those and then i was like then again it's really fun to watch from your own couch in the warmth and you have been out in the cold games so give me me some feedback. I would probably not. I mean, you can get lucky. Like if you know a week ahead of time, like it's really supposed to be warm this Sunday. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:22:50 It's like, yeah, I'll go. Yeah. But just to right now, like, yeah, I'll take them. Yeah. Then it comes around and they're like, yeah, it's gonna be 10 degrees. You know, you're like, why did I say yes to these tickets? It is gonna be so cold. Totally.
Starting point is 01:23:00 Okay. That's that's all I have. I would go to September, October football or playoff football in like January. Dude, shout out Andrew Schutte. Ghosty works for the Chiefs and said, he messaged us one time. He's like, I want to give you for Christmas one free Chiefs game. Yeah. Any Chiefs game you want.
Starting point is 01:23:17 So we get to go with him. I don't know if he's going to be with us or not. Oh, I guess I was. Yeah. I didn't have that in my head. I didn't know if he just had to work during the games but oh that's true too but yeah we chose a monday night football game i think gosh that's fun it's gonna be so fun so football's gonna be football's the best football's
Starting point is 01:23:35 gonna be fun like thinking about football guys football's fun sir uh i have one last thing to say and then we'll we'll wrap this up But I wanted to go to the driving range yesterday. And so I went to one course and I go in the pro shop and they say, ah, driving range is closed today. So I was like, OK, no worries. So I drive to another course and they say driving range is closed today. Unfortunately, I don't know what's going on. And the guy goes, well, but I mean, we got T-Times available.
Starting point is 01:24:04 You might as well play nine so it's like hey oh sure good okay all right so good idea and so i was like all right i'll do that so i was playing by myself i go to the first hole and then there's a another solo in front of me and so i let him tee off and he looks behind me he's like you uh you by yourself i was like yeah and i don't remember exactly what he said but they were like weirdly similar where i feel like he said like might as well play with me. And I was like, OK. So then I felt this pressure.
Starting point is 01:24:29 I didn't even have a choice. I guess I'm playing with this random guy now, which is never the first few shots. It's always like, ah, is this how I normally do it? I know this guy's watching me. Why wouldn't he just let you play by yourself and he just go right after you? Or he was already going.
Starting point is 01:24:41 I don't know why he didn't want to go before me. OK, just a social guy, I guess. I don't know. Anyway, it's like like i guess i'm playing with this guy now and so um we've hit a few shots we're now on the green and i swear so now he's putting um left-handed and i'm like i swear he hit his first two shots yeah right hand like i'm just so sure of it and um as we're kind of talking i'm like you know what i'm just gonna ask whatever uh and then also in addition to us like as we're communicating i'm like this guy's i don't know if it's an accent he might have like a speech impediment or something i can't quite tell
Starting point is 01:25:14 interesting what's going on with his voice and then i see him putting left-handed and i was just like sorry i gotta ask are you putting opposite of how you hit and he's just like yeah kind of weird but that's just that's just how it is or something like that. And so after he does that, between that and the voice, I have now convinced myself that this man is a stroke victim. Like, ah, I got to figure it out. Kind of serves a speech. There's something about his body goes limp on a certain side,
Starting point is 01:25:37 but he's naturally left handed. He can still put that way, whatever. I built up this entire eight part docuseries on this man. Right. Next hole with the tee box. And he's like where you from and i'm telling him uh you know strafford missouri yada yada go indians i was like where are you from and he goes england and i was like oh that explains it okay so you're not a stroke
Starting point is 01:25:55 victim i'm just i'm just very uncultured and we are we are the most american like i'm like do you know that like everything north of America is Canada and you're like oh that funny accent stroke victim is actually just a British guy I feel like I should own up to that and be like I'm such an idiot and was it obvious after he said that not even a ton because it wasn't like he was like oh yes I'm from London you know it wasn't like a super like clear English accent or whatever it was just like because I asked I was like what brought you to the states and he said he ran track at college at OU and he was like probably in his upper fifties. So he like, it's like grew up speaking his English accent and then spent 30 years in the South.
Starting point is 01:26:32 Right. So I think it was kind of a hybrid of like, interesting. His R's were soft at times, but like, it wasn't clearly English, whatever. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And who knows what part of England he's from? Because they have different accents depending on where you are there. Totally. And he could have told me and I wouldn't know so it doesn't even matter but it was fun it was nice talking to him his name was steve and he was a decathlete for ou it's like dude you must have you got to be one of the more athletic people yeah you know that's running collegiate track probably so yeah it was really fun talking to him uh but yeah i felt bad and obviously i didn't tell him i was like oh okay sorry i thought you thought you had a stroke
Starting point is 01:27:03 oh well good for you i was thinking you deserved you know some sort of medal of honor sort of like just yeah participation trophy for finishing these nine holes you know that's great uh so yeah it's just funny where your mind goes and just like yeah i fully was like yeah look at me you know all the criminal minds i watch in high school is paying off and putting the pieces together this guy's had a stroke. Just English. Nope. Yeah, just a British guy.
Starting point is 01:27:28 Just English. Should we do some reviews for the week? Yes, please. Yes. I'll go first if you'd like me to. Hey, go ahead. Go first here. My review says, best thing since The Office.
