Starting point is 00:00:00 Okay, the other day, I've been trying to go to the gym more, trying to go a lifetime, trying to bulk up like my boys here. And after I worked out the other day, I decided I was going to go swimming in the pool, you know, just a nice little buoyant pool time. And I was walking outside to the outdoor pool because I was going to get some rays. Didn't get the rays because they're like, hey, there's been some thunder in the area. You just have to swim in the indoor pool. And I was like, no problem. And so I was hot from the workout. And so I didn't want to go,
Starting point is 00:00:28 there's hot tubs. And then there's like the colder pool. So I was like, I'm going to go to the cold pool first. And so the cold pool is probably three and a half feet deep. And I had the thought of like, how should I get in this thing? Sandlot style.
Starting point is 00:00:45 And so I, you know, yeah. Cannonball. I didn't cannonball. I jumped in. Was there a step down? There was a step, well, not like a. Can you wade in? There were normal ways to get in.
Starting point is 00:00:56 They had like a wadeable. Were there children present in the pool? There were children in the wading area. And so I was like, I just want to be in this little corner to cool down a little bit. So I jump in and I did fine. And I look over at the lifeguard and the lifeguard's like staring at me for a solid 10 seconds. And she's like a high school, college-age girl.
Starting point is 00:01:18 Like, whatever. I don't care. Catherine. Catherine. Maybe Brad doesn't need to go to the lifetime anymore. And anyway, like probably a minute later, she gets off of her like lifeguard stand and comes over to me and she's like, did you fall in?
Starting point is 00:01:39 I was like, what? She said, yeah, did you fall in? I thought the way that you got in the pool, it looked like you fell in. And so I don't know. I guess I just have that much grace. She was just going off of the audible. The noise, I guess. Did you go all the way under?
Starting point is 00:01:56 Yeah. Yeah, yeah. She was almost whistle off, getting ready to jump in and save you. She was like, that guy. Wendy Pfeffer. You know, I didn't want to jump and and save you. It was like, well, I, I wanted to, you know, I didn't want to like jump in, like obviously hit my feet too quickly.
Starting point is 00:02:07 And so I kind of jumped in, like sat like crisscross applesauce as I fell. Kind of. That's impressive. And just, and then I just, yeah, hit my bumper to the bottom and came up.
Starting point is 00:02:19 And then all of a sudden, apparently it looks like maybe I am. Yeah. Just falling in the pool. So I don't know that's uh the story and i'm sticking to it uh we have a fun episode this week uh let's roll the theme music and we'll get into it baby uh oh oh i think this tight beat means that it's going down with some random thoughts and white me too midwest best friends eating fast food on repeat so come

Starting point is 00:03:39 I've got to say, this is weird being in their house without them being here. It's kind of odd, isn't it? Yeah. It's like, he's okay with us doing this, but still, it's weird. It is weird. So I just wanted to quickly introduce you guys, and then we can kind of, yeah, isn't it? It's like, he's okay with us doing this, but still it's weird. It is weird. So I just wanted to quickly introduce you guys and then we can kind of, yeah, get into it all. So I'll introduce you guys based off of the people I've known the longest to the shortest. So yeah, first and foremost, we've got Peter Casey here. Peter and I met, Peter worked alongside of Catherine. He was actually the K-Life
Starting point is 00:04:06 Director when Jake started At K-Life Back when Jake and I were next door neighbors Jake's roommate was Peter Peter's the man, we've talked about Peter many times On the podcast And we actually recorded A lot of the podcast seasons
Starting point is 00:04:21 In Peter's basement before Peter lived there The early stuff And now Peter does live there And flips other houses and dominates a lot of the podcast seasons in Peter's basement before Peter lived there. The early stuff. And now Peter does live there and flips other houses and dominates it and does real estate. So if you're in Kansas city and you need some real estate sales and or purchases. Shameless plug. Come on,
Starting point is 00:04:37 Peter Casey. Are you limited only to Kansas city? Referrals all over the country. There you go. Keller Williams, wide network of real estate agents. There you go. Peter is also the one who filled up a water bottle full of gas one time. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:55 Just for fun. I run out of gas way more than the normal person. Oh, yeah. The story happened in the winter and you're just wearing Sperry's and shorts. Yeah, I know. I was on my way to a showing and ran out of gas on the highway on the highway. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:09 I'm like probably a mile and a half. It's December in Kansas city, 20 degrees outside and we're in Sperry's pants naturally looking two coats and just like have 10 minutes to get there. And I just take off running and you take off running on the highway on the highway, up the exit ramp down the street, um, was like three minutes late. And I just am like breathing as heavy as can be when I get there. I was like, you okay? I'm like stress ran out of gas, but I got here in time. Didn't buy that house, but he bought another house. Okay. Whatever happened, it all worked out. I don't know if we ever talked about in the podcast,
Starting point is 00:05:41 there was a guy that was going to buy like a $3 million house or something out of nowhere. Can you tell that story real quick? Yeah. So, um, we, my old team had Zillow leads, so we'd purchased some ad space on Zillow. So whenever you find a house click, Hey, I want to take a look at it. We'd get a phone call and they'd connect us. And so get connected to this family. We, the house we go see is like $160,000 and we get there and it's, uh, in rough shape. And so I'm just kind of pointing some things out. Um, don't end up going with that one, kind of lose touch with them. They hadn't had financing or anything like that. And so he reaches out, the son reaches out at all the contact I've been with the mom so far, son reaches out like
Starting point is 00:06:20 two months later. It's like, Hey, I want to go see this house. So we go see the house. It's $200,000 house. Um, nice house. We walked through it and he's just kind of like really quiet, like doesn't really say anything the whole time. Just kind of has that look in his eye. And so we get done, we get in the backyard, that look in his eye, what look is that? What is that look? You know, like it's, it's the look that look of like, this guy doesn't care. I mean, he's like 19 years old and he's looking at houses and he's just kind of like, of like, this guy doesn't care? I mean, he's like 19 years old. Okay. And he's looking at houses and he's just kind of like, just feeling out the situation. Just kind of like eyes a little squinted. Okay.
Starting point is 00:06:53 We get to the backyard and I'm talking to him and he's like not paying any attention. He's on his phone scrolling. And finally I get done with my little spiel about the house. And he's like, yeah, this one's okay. He's like, but this is the one I really want. And he's like on Zillow, pulls out his phone. And it's this like $3.7 million home in Independence, gated community. It's on like 40 acres. It's just like three golf holes on it.
Starting point is 00:07:22 And I just kind of giggle and like sure just straight faced the whole time like doesn't break the squinty eye contact um and i'm like okay i'm like how are we gonna pay for that and he's like um i'm like you know finance it you're gonna pay with cash and he's just like cash like okay straight cash like well we're gonna need to see some proof of funds and stuff before we go take a look. He's like, okay. He's like, I'm going to Mexico, and I'll be back in two weeks, and we should be good to go then. Nothing about this situation. I'm like, what in the world is happening?
Starting point is 00:07:54 One, I might be, like, getting ready to make a ton of money. Right. Two, what are you doing in Mexico? Like, do I need to talk to your mom? And came back from Mexico, ended up working with his mom later on. But I think the situation was they had some construction stuff with some flooding from a contractor that had built their house. And I think he thought he was going to get like a large sum of money from this lawsuit that they were in. And did not happen.
Starting point is 00:08:24 And so he's still, uh, he's still looking, but his range has come down a little bit. You get 3%, right? On big houses like that. It's probably like two. Okay. 3% was 111 grand. That would have been a good day. That would have been nuts, dude. Yeah. Real estate sounds fun. It is fun. It is fun. Patrick Mahomes house just came on the market yesterday. I know. I heard that he's, where's he building the house?
Starting point is 00:08:48 Uh, no, I've, it's like down South. Oh, is it on South? Lock Lloyd? Maybe.
Starting point is 00:08:54 That's what I was thinking. It was like, it's like rumor. I heard, okay, here's, you want to talk about rumors? It's building a compound.
Starting point is 00:09:01 Uh, I, I, I told this guy, listen to the podcast. So maybe he's going to be like, dude, I can't believe you said that to your podcast listeners, but whatever.
Starting point is 00:09:07 There's this guy that goes to my church who I just met the other night at this kids ministry thing who does hot tubs for people in Kansas City and is building Mahomes, a hot tub in this new place. Build a team. like Lock Lloyd or some like really prestigious area of Kansas city. Uh, but they're creating my homes has like his own road and entrance into this like gated community that like doesn't exist right now. So they're just building it all for him just for the hot tub. He's like, and the hot tub there is going to be nuts. 20 person hot tub guys. The bathroom here is nuts.
Starting point is 00:09:42 All right. Uh, then we got Gunnar Duckworth, Gunnar Charles Duckworth. Um, Gunnar Duckworth, Gunnar Charles Duckworth. Gunnar's the man. Gunnar and I met his wife, Emily, then fiance, maybe even just girlfriend. She ended up living in the house that Catherine and I were living in after he moved out. And so met them whenever she came and toured.
Starting point is 00:10:03 And what? Just touring the K-Life house. A funny thought. Just like, what do you think of this great place? I mean, it's just, yeah. You have to be a Christian to live in a place like that. You know what I mean? Like just having to have a deeper meaning behind things.
Starting point is 00:10:18 But yeah. That was like her first basement experience. What do you mean? She just grew up in Oklahoma. They didn't have basements. Oh, yeah. They don't have basements. Oh, yeah. They don't have basements in Oklahoma. Her scene where she had to do laundry every day was a little bit of a...
Starting point is 00:10:30 Is that Oklahoma like tornado country of the world? That's interesting. They don't have basements. They have cellars? It's the clay. It's a soft soil. Okay. So they can't do that.
Starting point is 00:10:38 Yeah. The red dirt. Dang. That sucks. So all she had to go off of was the Home Alone scene when he's down there doing his laundry. That's kind of where it is. That's pretty accurate in the K-Life house. But yeah, Gunnar and I met.
Starting point is 00:10:50 We actually led a Bible study together for two years, three years, however long that was, with some boys. And Gunnar's wife and I worked together at the church for a while alongside Peter. That's right. And now we're just best buds, just doing life, watching a lot of Chiefs. Yeah, Chiefs is a
Starting point is 00:11:08 central part of the bond. There was one season where I feel like it was before everyone else was around where it was just the four of us would watch the Chiefs game. It was when Hattie was so tiny. Oh, and you loved her little lamb chair.
Starting point is 00:11:22 Hattie had one of those chairs that looks like the seat is like a lamb, you know, whatever. Shout out Robin McCullough. Yeah. Robin McCullough gave it to her and yeah. Gunner would always just lay there with this lamb chair on. Is this one of those little kids chairs that's really low to the ground? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:36 On the ground. Where you lay and you just put your shoulders and head like on the seat part. Yeah. That's one of the best things you can do. Gunner loved it. Gunner like, like it used to like sit up like the, the, the head and Gunner would just yank it down and like lay on it.
Starting point is 00:11:49 And it does. I mean, it still sits up a little bit. It's kind of like 45 now, but it's, it's well loved. And, uh,
Starting point is 00:11:55 so anyway, Gunner's the man. And then of course, Harrison Pollard, Harry, you know, sporty good times, Harry.
Starting point is 00:12:01 Uh, I feel like out of all the three of you, people know Harrison the best probably. Cause he's been a roommate of Jake's, um, Harry. I feel like out of all the three of you, people know Harrison the best, probably because he's been a roommate of Jake's recently. And yeah, everyone loves Harry. I'm trying to think of things from Harrison. I mean, Harry, he was the U-Haul vibes. Oh, yeah. We got down on some U-Hauls together. A little cast of characters. Fairway Franklin, I mean, came in one time.
Starting point is 00:12:25 Yeah, yeah. Man, I need to bring Franklin back. He hadn't made an appearance in a long time. Yeah, you need to follow Harrison on Sporty Good Times
Starting point is 00:12:32 because it's just something new every time. I appreciate you always repping too. Always. It always makes you feel good too that you actually like to wear it. You're not just wearing it
Starting point is 00:12:40 out of like, this is my friend's obligation that you enjoy it yourself. If anything, we were just talking about earlier before we recorded how I want like keep certain shoes clean but then i just naturally wear them too much or just like do life in them like that's how this hat is like i was like i want this hat to look good yeah but i just sweating it all the time in life and
Starting point is 00:12:58 now it's it's kind of dirty wear on it but i love it man yeah so it's a good looking hat yeah it's fun i scanner harris or yeah harrison's come out with a different color way a few different times I got some wear on it. I like it. I love it, man. It's a good-looking hat. Yeah, it's fun. Thanks, Gunnar. Harrison's come out with a different colorway a few different times. I have another colorway I got to give you. Yeah? I did a black one, yeah. Fun. I did a very small amount of them.
Starting point is 00:13:15 I'm your guy. I got you. SportyGoodTimes.com. Okay, we do some segments here on the podcast, guys, and we're going to do some wins of the Week because it's Wednesday. Get it? Wednesday. Not Wednesday.
Starting point is 00:13:29 Wednesday. So Winds of the Week. Anybody want to start? It would be an honor. Let's go. Gunnery Duckworth. Yeah, let's think. Wednesday, I got to go with on the wedding weekend,
Starting point is 00:13:43 which we were all together. Yes. I stumbled upon – actually, I have it with me. I stumbled upon, actually I have with me, stumbled upon a wonderful squirt Gatorade bottle. And just stumbled upon it. Just, yeah. It happened to be in my golf bag,
Starting point is 00:13:54 even though I don't golf or have a golf bag. It looks like there would be somebody's name on the top. It's weird. There used to be there. It was a heart. Rubbed off. Yeah. It's rubbed off somehow. But all I'll say,
Starting point is 00:14:02 why it's a win is I have a daughter, amazing daughter. And anytime I pick anything up, she wants it. So food, water, toy, whatever. She's now, that's now hers. What's really clutch about this bottle is you can't backwash in it. I've tried and you can't. So next time you guys get a hold of one of these Gatorade square bottles, try to backwash.
Starting point is 00:14:20 That's amazing. It's not possible. So I can just feed her all she wants, give her some water. Yeah. And then there's actually a little, the spray at the end. Oh. She likes that. Just enough.
Starting point is 00:14:29 Not like too much. Yes. Like it makes her laugh, but not. Did it scare her the first time you did it? She does the. Oh, yeah. Which is a good, that's a good thing. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:39 But no, she loves it. And anything that keeps her entertained for even just like five minutes is a win. The, yeah, the Gatorade bottle. That's just the most Gunner thing. It's a huge win in Gunner's world. Yes. loves it and anything that keeps her entertained for even just like five minutes is a win the uh yeah the gatorade bottle that's just the most gunner thing it's a huge win in gunner's world like this it's free 99 well i mean so gunner's a big boat guy and uh every time i've been on the boat he has probably 10 pairs of sunglasses that you can wear and fun fact about the sunglasses gunner which one which fun fact well the none of them are paid for none of them are paid for yeah they're just like i found these lost and thank you yeah i mean
Starting point is 00:15:11 to be fair they look like they were found yeah some of them are nice looking i thought there's one nice pair that stays in the little case okay that technically came with the one wakeboards we purchased okay but the rest which is I guess it's kind of not free, but the rest were just on the road, on the ground. Yeah, I mean the Gatorade thing. Yeah, that makes sense. We were sitting on this bench at the end of the golf course and it was like, no one's coming back for that thing.
Starting point is 00:15:38 And yeah, of course out of all of us, Gunner's taking it. So, win of the week. And you'll always remember that weekend too. My name is essentially on it. G. Big G. G Swagger. Harry, you got a win? Big Booty Mix 23
Starting point is 00:15:51 came out today. We didn't talk about Big Booty Mix. Does Scott and Luke know? Do Scott and Luke know? I don't know. But... Tell that story from the bachelor party. Which bachelor party? With Big Booty Mix. Y'all are going to know this. Were you not there for this?
Starting point is 00:16:07 Maybe I missed that. It was me, Luke, Isaac. Harrison wasn't a part of this? He just randomly started talking about Big Booty Mix? I feel like I would remember that, but I don't remember that. It was while we were playing football over the pool. Oh, I think I stepped in his house. Luke and Scott came running out and were like, guys, you'll never believe this.
Starting point is 00:16:23 They're on youtube trying to watch the good good on like the tv tv yeah so they're logged into the youtube app on the tv and you've got like search history and so the last two things that are played are it was like beats between the sheets or something yeah something like that and then big booty mix 15 were they thinking it was like something weird and they're like yeah yeah're like, immediately we jumped out of bed. We're like, we do not want to. Hope they wash the sheets. And ran out and they're guys, guys, you're never going to believe this.
Starting point is 00:16:53 And Isaac's like, have you guys never heard a big, like just like straight face? You've never heard Big Booty Mix? Like, what are you talking about? Everybody listens to Big Booty Mix. And now it's Luke's like favorite thing. I'm glad he found it because it is a gift to the world. Explain what Big Booty Mix is. For the people that are thinking it's Luke's favorite thing. I'm glad he found it, because it is a gift to the world. Explain what Big Bunny makes it appropriate. For the people that are thinking it's inappropriate.
Starting point is 00:17:09 I know. Well, it's not like the cleanest music in the world. If your kids are cool with a little bit of cursing, it is great to listen to. It's just a mashup. I'm going to liken to it, especially millennials, like us our age. Girl talk?
Starting point is 00:17:23 Do you ever listen to girl talk? No. Oh, my gosh age girl talk. Do you listen to girl talk? No. Oh my gosh. The best. Like the original, I'd never heard of mashup before girl talk. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:17:31 Yes. Yes. Yeah. I remember the one that, um, what was the original one on YouTube? Like the mashup that like everybody knew, maybe that's what you're talking about.
Starting point is 00:17:39 I don't know. It had like a crazy in it and it had like Justin Timberlake. We'll find it afterward. But anyway, um, no big booty mixes. I think we, but anyway. Big Booty Mix is, I think when we lived in the Miriam house, we would work out downstairs and just pump Big Booty Mix. What did you guys call it?
Starting point is 00:17:53 The Instant Pot? The Instant Pot. You get real juicy and sweaty down there. But I just saw that Matt Lindsay actually told me it dropped today. It's a great listening. I ran around the track and I was just like having to fight myself to like, actually I ran with Abby yesterday to listen to music.
Starting point is 00:18:11 I don't know if you guys have this, but whenever like music is playing, I try to run to the beat of the music or it's really hard not to. And I was being like so annoying. I was just like, I would stop and like cha-cha-cha. And she just thinks I'm like mocking her because I'm in better shape. And I'm just like, oh, this is so slow. Yeah, you're like turning around. Yeah, I'm like, come on, baby, bring it.
Starting point is 00:18:30 I was like, Hynies, I did the Tony Perkis like, I'm dogging it, Abby. I'm dogging it. And she was not enjoying it. Because she's like sucking wind. Right. She's struggling. She's like, this is not. Well, we did something.
Starting point is 00:18:41 I mean, I think it's really cute. We both shared ear pods. So I had one and she had the other. Yeah. the right one because she's like oh you just want to have control and i was like i do want to have control of the music yes because you know song comes on you don't want tap tap yeah um but yeah so we were doing that and then i just was like really in a dancing mood but she didn't appreciate it the same way how do y'all feel about when you work out i guess not as much running but like lifting and stuff like Like I used to think like I need to listen to the right music, and now I'm convinced I don't think it makes that big of a difference.
Starting point is 00:19:11 True? I used to think it really like empowered your workouts or like fueled you. And then like three reps in, you're like, I'm still struggling to get it up. I don't know. Like, you know, like till I collapse by Eminem, it's like it pumps it up. I don't know. Like, you know, like, like, like, like till I collapse by Eminem is like,
Starting point is 00:19:26 it pumps me up. If you can't get it up until I collapse, then we got other problems. Anyway, I think working out Ghost Runners podcast is a great thing
Starting point is 00:19:37 to listen to while working out. Yeah? It is. I will say, familiar voices are like, I like to work out just watching The Office.
Starting point is 00:19:43 Something where you know it's like, it's familiar to you. You can kind of just like zone out and do that. There you go. Yeah. Peter, you got a win a week. When you got a win a week? Um, bought a house this week. Dang. Okay. That one? What? The one, the one, the one out in Lee summit. Yeah. Oh, that's awesome. So probably got in a little over our heads, but I'm excited. So Peter flips houses Peter flips houses. The guy flips houses, I mean, he's done it once, and he's doing it again.
Starting point is 00:20:09 He flips houses. So now you're a house flipper. So yeah, so that's fun. And taught Annie how to roar like a lion. So now whenever she sees animals in books, she's just like, rah! Dude, that's awesome. Which is fun. It's like, find the things that you can teach your kids.
Starting point is 00:20:25 Yeah. It's crazy. Like Gunner, Peter and I all have daughters within months of each. Delaney and Rosie are like a week apart, I think. And when's Annie's birthday? June 24th,
Starting point is 00:20:37 23rd. Good for you. Good save. Well, we had trouble with insurance like the first five months of her life because I told the insurance people that she's born on the 26th. It's in there. Dude, I struggle too sometimes.
Starting point is 00:20:51 Yeah, it's, you know, the month. Yeah, I was like, Sophie, something's wrong. Like she's still not insured. I don't know what's going on. They're saying something's wrong with her birthday. Oh, gosh. 26th. So he's like, she was not born on the 26th.
Starting point is 00:21:04 Like that whole like week was just a blur. I don't know how. Yeah, dude. It's amazing that first... Wild. Yeah, first month. Birthday on the 23rd. Birthday party on the 24th. Yes. Dang, I had another
Starting point is 00:21:20 question. Annie, birthday, daughters, I don't know. If I go up to Annie when I see her next, I had another question. Annie, birthday, daughters, rawr. I don't know. If I go up to Annie when I see her next, I go rawr. Just like show her a picture of a lion. She'll get this like little look on her face. That's like she does it almost as much as she like mad gab like talks.
Starting point is 00:21:39 Yeah. And she'll just roar. Is she like saying other words? Oh, no. Are you kind of comparing yourself? I was thinking about Delaney. Yeah. Yeah. Like that's the fun and scary thing about having kids the same age is like Delaney has been walking for a while and Rosie is trying. She's trying. I don't know. So Delaney's trotting at this point. Yeah. She's a gallop to her. She's kind of a, yeah. You open a door and she's there before you want her to be. Right.
Starting point is 00:22:07 Oh, okay. Let's see. Brad, do you have a win of the week? Yeah, I'm going to hear Brad's. So my week has been not very winnable. I've been sick, pretty miserably sick for like the last three days. Any specifics? Not like, no, not like nasty, like throwing up or
Starting point is 00:22:26 anything, just like a bad cold that kind of took me out, honestly. And so I don't know if it's, yeah, cold or whatever. It's just not fun. And so thanks for being in this close room with me tonight. I had no idea actually. So, but I was, yeah, I was looking forward to it so much. Uh, Catherine and the kids have been in Texas for like six days, and I was like, I'm going to get so much done while they're gone. And my win of the week is that Sunday when they left, I got so much done. I really did. I cleaned the entire house, like genuinely the entire house.
Starting point is 00:22:59 And when you have kids, we clean all the time, but it's never clean because it just gets dirty again. But it was clean the entire time, but it's never clean because it just gets dirty again. But it was clean the entire day and it was awesome. And then I cleaned out my truck. I cleaned out everything I could think of. I went and cleaned out my shop. I was like, this is awesome. Did you have clothes on throughout this whole process? I did.
Starting point is 00:23:17 I feel like layers start to come off when Abby leaves and it's just me and the house. Yeah, totally. No, I kept it going pretty strong, I think, from what I can remember. I feel like it'd be easy for the neighbors to be like, well, there's Brad again. He's out there naked. There must be a Texas again. Just doing his thing
Starting point is 00:23:34 over there. What are you doing over there, boy? No, because we have that neighbor across the street the other way. Oh, he's half naked. He's always and I'm like, I don't want to... In the jeans? I notice him being like that, so I don't want to be that guy. That's fair. The more kids you have is the mess. Like, does it just compound or is it kind of like one after one? It's just all blends together. No, it gets, it compounds for sure. Cause we are like head
Starting point is 00:23:58 underwater right now. Like you walk in the door and just stuff everywhere. You better get your stuff together now then. I don't know. Well, it compounds, but as the kids get older, they can clean up a little bit themselves, obviously. So Hattie in her basement, she loves having her quiet time in the afternoon by herself in the basement. And she's like starting to make like these little worlds and like being very creative.
Starting point is 00:24:21 It's really cute. And usually I'm like, hey, make sure you're cleaning up as you go. And she's like, okay, dad. But then the other day, she's like, I couldn't clean up as I go. Cause it was too overwhelming to even start cleaning up. And I was like, how bad could this be? And I went down there, dude. And it was like, she started to be a Lego person now. So she's got, you know, a thousand Legos out. I mean, tiny little Legos. And then she's got this yarn that she cuts up into the tiniest little pieces and it's just like strewn about on the floor to the point where I was like, I'm not even cleaning. Like, like I cleaned up the entire house, but I didn't even go in the basement. Cause I'm like, I don't, I don't want to do that. And I don't want to like give her,
Starting point is 00:24:56 she needs to clean that up. That's her mess. I'll help you, but I am not doing that. That sounds like a nightmare you would have where you would just, you'd be in a tunnel and just Legos on the ground, you're barefoot, youfoot you have to run through and there's like little pieces of yarn just floating and like getting in your mouth going in your lungs just not ready for it not ready for it all yeah so i don't i it gets it i mean in some ways in other ways it's like she plays with one doll and that's great so you know not as messy but i don't know i i'm a big fan of like if we haven't used that toy in two months, get rid of it. Like right now we're at the stage where like boxes and like
Starting point is 00:25:31 wrapping papers, just as fun as any toy she has. But, uh, it's like, Sophie was like, Hey, when you pick up the toys tomorrow, can you like put them away? Like neatly? And I'm like, Sophie, I'm going to put them in this bin and they're gonna get taken out like 20 minutes later right and sure enough like you put them in and you stack them all nice and neat and then she wakes up from her nap yeah it's just like chaos yeah boo the other day wanted one little piece out of this like he has like the big legos like like the you know these size mega blocks and i was like okay let's just get that one piece out. And he's like, I'll just dump it. And I was like, no, no, no. I was like,
Starting point is 00:26:08 just get the one piece. I'll help you find it. He's like, no, I'll just dump it out and then I'll put them back in after. And I was like, you promise you'll put them back in? He's like, yeah, I promise. So he dumps it out and then, yeah, yeah, I promise. There it is. I promise. Yeah. That's why I'm really here. I'm really here for those. Yeah, I want more bow impressions.
Starting point is 00:26:25 Okay. Yeah, I just more bow impressions. Okay. Yeah. So there's this cat. His name is Figaro, but he calls him Tigero. I just want Tigero. Just want Tigero, I promise. He's like, okay. And so he dumps it all out, gets Tigero, plays with Tigero for genuinely two minutes, and then goes and tries to play with magnetiles.
Starting point is 00:26:43 You guys have those yet? No. You've never heard of those? No, but they're sweet. Fun. So cool. That's going to be a good day when to play with magnetiles. You guys have those yet? No, but they're so fun. So cool. That's going to be a good day when you guys get magnetiles. But I was like, oh, you can't play with your magnetiles yet? You got to put away your Legos. He's like, I don't want to put away the Legos. I'm not going to do that. I'm not going to do that.
Starting point is 00:26:58 I was like, you have to. He starts crying and wailing and I'm like, I told you. The delayed promise gets you every time like it feels so far away until it just sneaks up on you i know and you gotta just figure out how to how to get to them so um fun wins of the week though guys uh okay uh we're gonna do currently trending next we haven't done that in a while but before that we're gonna talk about our first sponsor whoa i'm talking about q a p a goat soaps uh if you guys don't know i wanted to do the goat scream but i don't do it do it do whatever you want what do they do like the taylor swift right what song is that

Product availability may vary by Regency app for details. Okay, currently trending. We haven't done this in a while. Product availability may vary by Regency app for details. Okay, currently trending. We haven't done this in a while. I'll start with this one. First of all, currently trending, I'm washing my hair with a bar of soap from qpgoatsoaps.com. qpgoatsoap.com.
Starting point is 00:32:16 It's one of those things, dude, like once you do it, first of all, it makes your, it's so consolidated in your shower. You have two bars now. Body bar, hair bar. And you just put that on the hair and you just do it like two times and you're good. You have two bars now. Body bar, hair bar. And you just put that on the hair and you just do it like two times and you're good.
Starting point is 00:32:28 Brad's got bars. So you're still washing your hair. Still wash my hair. Wait, so you use the bar on the head like this? Yeah. Is that nice? Do you lather or do you like, yeah. No, I lather one side.
Starting point is 00:32:39 I get it into a little bit of a foam up there, put the bar down and then lather. Yeah, get on the sides from there. I like that. Yeah, Gunner's an and then lather. Yeah, get on the sides from there. I like that. Yeah, Gunner's an anti-head washer. Yeah, that's true. Yeah, always have been. It doesn't really apply right now because I just buzzed my head.
Starting point is 00:32:53 How often are we talking? Never. Once a quarter. Once a quarter. Maybe we should hook old Gunner up with some QP. Yeah, maybe you're not getting true soap. That could be the issue. I think he needs to try it out.
Starting point is 00:33:04 He might use it and never look back. Never look back. What do you think? What do you think of that? That was good. Okay, and then second thing, I've been drinking something cold in the shower recently, and it's awesome.
Starting point is 00:33:21 I just love just getting an ice cold drink, whether it's LaCroix, sparkling something, maybe a little burr, maybe a little whatever, anything and everything. Milk. No, I'm just kidding. How much time are we spending in the shower? Not that long. I can drink one of these things in two minutes. Dude, it's nice.
Starting point is 00:33:38 Two minutes? A thousand to one, you can't. No way. No way. You take anything in a thousand. There's a lot of bubbles in there oh dude it but like you don't get the burps summer days try to like pound it no i don't maybe i do i just i feel good about it though all right i don't know i'll take your word for it how many of those we got dude i bought you saw how many i bought i just i went to walmart the other day to buy i think just coconut lacroix and they didn't it, but they had all sorts of other –
Starting point is 00:34:06 there's so many different seltzers out there right now. And I was just like, that one sounds kind of fun. I was like, I'm going to drink these eventually. And I'm a big fan of like, hey, if you know you're going to use it eventually, why not buy it now? And so – Yeah. Is seltzer what you call just flavored water?
Starting point is 00:34:19 You think alcoholic when you think your seltzer is an alcoholic drink? Oh, I'm sorry. I could be wrong. What do you call them? I don't know. Spicy water is what? Sparkling water. The spicy water.
Starting point is 00:34:29 Seltzer water. I think seltzers are. It's universal? I don't know. Yeah. Yeah. I think if you're saying like you're pounding seltzers, I wouldn't think of Waterloo's and things like that.
Starting point is 00:34:40 That's true. But I think this is a seltzer. When we pound seltzers, it's Waterloo. Yeah, baby. Oh, dude, this is a seltzer. When we pound seltzers, it's Waterloo. Yeah, baby. Oh, dude, Gunnar pounds seltzers. Oh, that guy goes crazy on the Topo Cheek. The ahas. I like that.
Starting point is 00:34:53 Ahas. Whenever you do that in Kyle Mooney. Oh, that bit? Ah, the real puffy, puffy stuff in it? Dude, when you use the crystals and you take it to, you know what I'm saying? The hydrochronic bonnet? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:35:06 Dude, gutter pound seltzer stick. Dude, this guy just goes nuts on the freaking seltzer stick. Waterloo? Water who? Who wants to go next? Currently trending? What's trending right now?
Starting point is 00:35:26 Hurry, somebody look it up. Look, look, look. This is our lifetime. Harry didn't write anything down. You said that it was going to come back to bite me in the butt, and it has not yet, has it? Wait, currently trending? Well, you acted like it. Currently trending.
Starting point is 00:35:37 You fooled me. Twitter, Twitter. Currently trending? No. In my life, I would say, you guys ever play Blitzball? We talked about Blitzball. Yeah. I feel like just everybody that I've been around. I did, or you did? You did my life, I would say, you guys ever play Blitzball? We talked about Blitzball. I feel like just everybody that I've been around. I did or you did? You did. Yeah, I did. See, I've told
Starting point is 00:35:49 everybody about this. There's actually a tournament tomorrow, which we still have time to sign up. It's $100. Team of six. Can you imagine? I mean, no. It's casual play. Explain to everyone what Blitzball is. I mean, it's like wiffle ball and steroids, I guess.
Starting point is 00:36:05 I've been watching so much of... John Boy Media has their warehouse games, and it's like all these characters come in and they play these 2v2 Blitzball tournaments. You've seen like a wiffle ball, like a white wiffle ball with the little slots in it, and you can throw it, make it move different ways. Blitzball is like bright highlighter yellow.
Starting point is 00:36:23 It's got a bunch of different angles on this sphere. Same Same thing though. You can throw it, it'll rise, it'll go left, it'll go right. It looks like a video game. It does. It looks like, yeah, you get some cheat code on a video game. Yeah. It's for like, if you know, if you, uh, like Clayton Kershaw has a great curve ball or like Randy Johnson, dirty slider. It's like you, if you're just a regular person and you're like, I could throw that pitch with that. Um, but it's kind of like growing South Paul's that you mentioned. I know southpaw i mean i'm a big fan of southpaw southpaw social uh southpaw social we'll talk about later but anyway i uh but me and abby were starting to do this thing like i think i'm gonna call it summer abs you know it's like we're taking it bats i'm just pitching i
Starting point is 00:36:58 don't hit because i just feel like i don't need to i don't need to prove anything to abby by smacking one of her pitches like two yards over. I do. I need to. I do that personally. Also, I'll set this. When I first got the balls, I went to the academy, and luckily they had a bat, and they had like extra balls.
Starting point is 00:37:15 I probably at this point have like 10 blitz balls. But I was practicing in the backyard because I'd never thrown them. And I tried to throw like a riser at the fence, and it rose too much and went into the backyard of somebody else. And I was like, I don't know if you guys haven't had this problem. Like how do I contact them to get my ball back? How do I let them know that I'm a 32-year-old man that needs his ball back? Like if you see a little kid going in there, you're like, you have pure intentions.
Starting point is 00:37:39 You're like, oh. They're going to assume. Like how are they going to know it's my ball? You can borrow Hattie sometimes. Yeah. We got to go. I thought about like, do I tape a letter to the, or like a fence and throw it over by the ball? Is there just like watching that, you know, I could look through the fence and there's
Starting point is 00:37:53 my ball just sitting there. You just got to go and just don't look and just get in and get it. Just real quick. Do not make eye contact. Do not look in their house. If we were 10 years old, we would do that. We'd hop the fence, run, grab the ball. Is it chain link?
Starting point is 00:38:06 It's like a normal wooden fence. That's a lot harder to... That feels more like trespassing than hopping over it. In this age, too, it feels like trespassing. You feel like you're trapped. You can't even look in another person's backyard without trespassing. Yeah. It happened once, and then I was pitching to Abby,
Starting point is 00:38:21 and she just hit a tank over the house, went into another neighbor's yard. And so I had two balls, and like, I don't know what each ball probably costs. When you get the bat, it's one, and then you get the pack of three. Pack three is probably like $10. So you're halfway out. But like, I'm thinking like, $3.35 in that yard. Two houses, two different houses.
Starting point is 00:38:39 That's the issue. Luckily, I know the house on the right side of us, a guy named Andrew. I have his number, so I'm like, hey, just want to let you know, yes, I'm a 32-year-old person texting you saying, hey, can I go and get my blitz ball from your backyard? And he's like, yeah, no problem. I went and got it. But the other one, luckily, also got thrown into his backyard because the back neighbor thought it was, they have small kids. They thought it was theirs. So while I was back there getting the one ball, the other ball was back there. And I was like, yeah, it's jackpot. So I I was back there getting the one ball, the other ball was back there and I was like, yeah, that's perfect. So I got both of them back. Um, and then I took him to work the other day and
Starting point is 00:39:10 was pitching to one of my coworkers and he hit it up on the roof. So, um, dingers in better spaces, I guess you go to, that's the thing is like, you gotta go. Yeah. I've just, I need wide open spaces. I need dicks and chicks. Chicks. Chicks. That's just kind of my shtick right now. I just show up, I pull up wherever, I'm like, Blitzball? Blitzball. Are they in your car right now? Yes, they are. We can go play Blitzball.
Starting point is 00:39:37 If we wanted to have the first ever Blitzball, I'll pitch it through that hallway and you take a swing right here on the podcast, we can make it happen. That's what's currently trending in my life. Okay, blitz ball. But also very impressed with Abby. Oh, yeah. Yeah, I'm trying to dice her up, throw that 12-6.
Starting point is 00:39:52 Really, with those balls, it's like 18-12. Yeah. I mean, it's down. It's coming all the way around. I hit her in the leg, though, I will say, and I left like a little welt. They sting a little bit. They do. They're pretty hard.
Starting point is 00:40:07 She was like complaining about it. I was like, oh, suck it up. And then like two days later, she still had a bruise. Is it harder than whiffable? Yeah. Yeah, probably. I mean, you don't have to throw it that hard. You just get a little wrist snap, and it's like kind of going.
Starting point is 00:40:19 It's got some velocity. Yeah. I would feel like if you're playing in like a, uh, competitive blitz ball league where the ball's just going nuts every time, are you able to just throw it like a straight fastball? It's hard. Really? It's hard. That seems like the best strategies because people are just waiting for it to move and you just throw it and it doesn't move and it's too late. That's what, when you watch those, like the warehouse games I was talking about so many of the at bats and in walks and it's kind of kind of that part is kind of like, I wish people would swing more.
Starting point is 00:40:46 But it's because, yeah, it's so hard to throw a strike that most of the time you can just get walked. Interesting. Yeah. That's the flaw, I guess, of the game. It is. Petey, or gun? I'll swing. Yeah, swing. Currently trending is it's boat season. Hey!
Starting point is 00:41:02 It is that time of year. Getting the old pistol Pete out on the water tomorrow, actually. The black and orange. For the first time? First time this summer. Wow. We broke the rudder at the end of last season, which was a huge bummer. How does that, like how?
Starting point is 00:41:17 Is that like the coccyx of the boat? The rudder? Let's see who knows what a rudder is. It's in the back. It's the little spinny thing. No, I think it moves it. That's the propeller. It directs it.
Starting point is 00:41:28 Yeah, rudder is literally in the back. That's what steers the whole boat. So we were Lake of the Ozarks, Windermere Cove. Did you hit a stick? Windermere. We didn't hit a stick. Just too much weight in the boat. Too much weight was coming at the boat.
Starting point is 00:41:41 Windermere. Greatest place. Throwback. Dude, I love that place. Why? That was... First kiss? First kiss at windermere no better lunch later better what's better than a first bible drill oh baby that was where state bible drill was state so if you made it past your church league i don't know if it's called and then you had like sectionals and then if you made it through
Starting point is 00:42:04 sectionals you got to go to Windermere and compete against. It's a big deal. Everybody in the state. Was it like your team was competing or is it like you went individually? Wow. And it was like, I went with three other people from our, we were very good.
Starting point is 00:42:16 How'd you do? Uh, not great. Okay. You know, what's funny, the big lights were, uh,
Starting point is 00:42:22 all the Casey kids. Is that where you like sit on a sensor and you stand up? Probably now. Back then it was like they would like call it a passage and you like would have to flip to it and then step forward and then they would call on you. Oh, so you had to be fast at finding it? You had to be fast at finding it.
Starting point is 00:42:36 You had to memorize stuff too. Yeah, that's what I was thinking. It was like memorization stuff. Windermere. We were always there for like three hours and then we'd go home, but it was fun. I feel like the chances are pretty high that somebody listening to this right now is digging in an old box for a ribbon that they got from Windermere. They're like, oh my gosh, oh my gosh,
Starting point is 00:42:52 they're talking about Windermere. Absolutely. I beat Peter in this, yeah. I would do Bible drill as an adult. I think it'd be fun. Is this where your sword's up and you got your Bible up here and they give you the reference? You'd have to have it like this. It was like out in front, hand on top. And then they'd be like Jeremiah and you'd have to turn to Jeremiah. And then if you step forward and they call on you, which that was always the thing is that there's like a 10% chance they call on you, you know, 10 seconds. Wait, what if you had it memorized or do you have to prove that you had to find it? And then they'd ask you to say the book before the book and then the book after. All with your eyes closed.
Starting point is 00:43:27 All with your eyes closed. Which is crazy. I mean, honestly, genuinely, I would do that with you guys right now. I think that sounds really fun. Get a Bible out. Yeah. No, not literally right now, but like I would have weekly Bible drill competitions with you guys. I think it'd be really fun.
Starting point is 00:43:42 Play Blitzball, and then we'll do Bible drills. Just any competition. God, that sounds like a great time. Good time. But yeah, currently trending. Oh yeah, so the rudder. Back to where we were. I don't even know where we came from. Steer us back. Steer us back. Here we go. Come on. The rudder
Starting point is 00:43:55 broke. And so what actually was really fun was, so to get out to start surfing, we kind of upset a lot of boats in the process because it was a tight cove. You can only go straight. Yeah, throwing a little larger waves than we should have been. Not the most friendly people around using their hands to try to communicate with us. So on our way back, we had no rudder.
Starting point is 00:44:16 Thumbs down. Thumbs down. Major. Waving. Lots of thumbs. They're like, ah, you sting. I hope you leave. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:44:22 What do you think? Get out of here. In general, as wakeboarding has gotten bigger and bigger, not that there's a stigma, but people are always mad at them for throwing large waves because that's the whole point of these boats is to make the largest wave possible so you can surf and wakeboard and all that fun stuff.
Starting point is 00:44:35 But yeah, so we're going out, didn't make some friends, rudder breaks, trying to get back into the cove. This is where me and my brother got branded as the rudder brothers because we're sitting on the back of the boat. No rudder, so you can't steer the boat.
Starting point is 00:44:48 We're holding pike positions and doing different, not acrobats, but we're in the water, but holding our body in different positions to steer the boat back into the dock, dock the boat. So you're hanging on the back of the boat? Literally, yeah. I would have just gone to one side and shoved. This was weirdly smooth.
Starting point is 00:45:04 It worked super well. We're in idle speeds. We're not going fast. We literally could control the boat and put it right in the docks. He's just trying to say that he's got really good core strength. My brother did too who's not worked out. You guys are shredded. We get it.
Starting point is 00:45:20 I'll say, rudder has been a process because the boat's a little older. They didn't have the right part. So we had to do some jerry rigging and we're testing it out, make sure it doesn't sink. Hopefully the seal holds and because we had to drill a new hole to get the rudder. I did not drill the hole, the dealership did. But yeah, hopefully Delaney loves it.
Starting point is 00:45:42 I'm going to get her on the surfboard and probably get her. That's so fun. Whoa. And we'll see how it goes. Wow. First experience on a boat for H surfboard and probably get her. Yeah. Whoa. And we'll see how, we'll see how it goes. Wow. First experience on a boat for Hattie was with Gunner. Yeah. That was a fun time.
Starting point is 00:45:51 I feel like Gunner, you're going to be the person to have a lot of kids. Like first experience on a boat can be with uncle Gunner. Absolutely dude. I wouldn't have it any other way. It's fun. Bring a little Pollard out. Yeah. It's going to be,
Starting point is 00:46:01 give us a couple of years. We'll see you out there. Yeah. Harry's got a, Harry's got a baby coming is that okay? well it's not okay
Starting point is 00:46:11 I guess it's out there so another thing about Cairns Cunner said it first he did not I was talking about Bishop Bishop Pollard my nephew shout out to Big Unc of course I was anyway about Bishop. Yeah. Bishop Pollard. Bishop Pollard. Who's that? My nephew. Harrison. Big uncle.
Starting point is 00:46:25 Yeah. Yeah. Of course I was. Yeah, okay. I don't, anyway. Plaza. One thing. Oh, okay. I'm sorry, Harry. Cut. Cut. Cut it. Time and time. Go ahead. His mom doesn't know. Oh, okay. Yeah, we haven't told the whole
Starting point is 00:46:42 Pollard family. I don't know if I'm we. Harrison and I. There for the whole Pollard family. I don't know if I'm we. Harrison and I. It's there for the whole thing. It's there for the whole thing. We'd be good dads. If we had a co-dad, we'd be really good at it. You'd be like the enforcer and I'd be the fun dad. I'd be the fun dad.
Starting point is 00:46:55 Yeah, we'd both be fun. Yeah, you'd be way more fun, but you'd just keep us. You'd be the rudder of our family. Gunner's got that amazing personality where he's the most strict parent, but also the parent that everyone loves. You know what I mean? It's tough to walk that line. It's amazing. It's like, man, that guy was way meaner,
Starting point is 00:47:14 but man, is he awesome. Everyone loves him. That's just signs of a good leader. Exactly. We want to be more like you, Gunnar. That's what we're saying. A million percent. Teach us. After Bible drill. Got any more about the boat? Nothing about the boat. Just, I was actually having this conversation with my cousin Connor. We're like, when do we stop being aggressive on water sports?
Starting point is 00:47:32 It's like, at what age? Oh, sure. Like yourself. Yeah, he just turned 30. I'm 29. And we're like, when do we stop doing flips? It's like, is this a 40s, 50s? Because we both hurt all day.
Starting point is 00:47:42 You're talking about ages? As long as your body will let you. We're trying to decide, like, when do we stop playing pickup basketball? When something breaks. I think you just – You don't want to push to that limit, right? No. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:47:52 Yes, you do. You do, right? I think to an extent. When you can't do it. Not – maybe not. Sorry. Go ahead. No, I was just going to say when you can't –
Starting point is 00:47:58 when it interferes with other stuff you love to do. I don't play basketball anymore because it hurt my body for golf. I think, you know, Gunnar, when you can't get it up anymore on the water, then you know that's time to do. I don't play basketball anymore because it hurt my body. For golf. I think, you know, Gunnar, when you can't get it up anymore on the water, then you know that's time to quit. That's when it's time to walk away. Could be 70s. Could be. I mean, your dad gets out there.
Starting point is 00:48:15 Yeah, Edge is out there. He's 62. Have we talked about Edge with his, what's the Brit Favre copper tone? He's got his copper tone knee braces on. He puts them both on. I mean, the Velcro is like two double
Starting point is 00:48:32 Those things have seen some things over the years. They probably smell really good too. Lake washed every week. Probably braces he found in the house. Probably free braces. I'm going to put these on now. Did we ever tell you the
Starting point is 00:48:45 story about Abby one time when we were out on the boat? She had a really bad earache. Apparently she has like a permanently perforated eardrum, just like a little hole in one of her eardrums. So from time to time, it'll kind of like flare up. And it happened on the lake and she was in pretty bad pain. And so Edge
Starting point is 00:49:01 being the army guy, he's just like, hey, doesn't matter. We'll just put some alcohol on it, you know? Tipped her head sideways, just poured some alcohol. And Abby said she, like, wanted it to die. It hurt so bad. And she was just, like, silent, like, dying inside. Her insides are burning up.
Starting point is 00:49:19 Her tears are coming out of her eyes. She's trying to be so sweet, though. Oh, trying to be so sweet. Like, I think that might have helped a little. It feels great. It feels great. Meanwhile, she's just, like, about to pass out trying to be so sweet. Like, I think that might have helped a little. It feels great. It feels great. Meanwhile, she's just about to pass out. Oh, my goodness.
Starting point is 00:49:28 I feel like they were secluded in this instance. Somehow, they were like, that was... That was really the issue. It happened with... There was no discussion about it. It wasn't like... Edge wasn't like, all right. He didn't talk to me.
Starting point is 00:49:38 He's like, I'm about to take your sweet back here, and I'm going to dump a bunch of alcohol in her ear. Because I might have been like, hey, Lynch, there's got to be some other thing that we can do. But we like to tell that story just because it makes sense. Like, yeah, just put some alcohol and you'll be just fine. Put some dirt on it. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:49:54 Would you say, I don't know the answer to this, genuinely. Did you and Abby kind of get together on the boat? Is that a thing? I mean, the boat has its ways. I'll say that. I'll say that. The rudders of love. I feel like you got kind of set up on the boat? Is that a thing? I mean, the boat has its ways. I'll say that. I'll say that. The rudders of love. I feel like you got kind of set up on the boat.
Starting point is 00:50:10 Yeah. Well, no. Yeah, we tell the story. Unintentionally, on my end. Unintentionally. Emily says it. Oh, I heard from Emily. 100%.
Starting point is 00:50:18 The first time I went out on the boat, actually, it might have been the second time for me, but it was the first time that, like, Abby just happened to be there. You know, it was like one of those things where I was like, oh, hey, you're out here. Abby's here. And I was a little bit keen to what was happening. There was a moment where she like did a little flirt thing.
Starting point is 00:50:34 I love giving her a hard time because it's just funny looking back at like how girls flirt. I don't know if you guys have that with your spouses, but it's like. Oh, I love it. There was a moment where we're sitting like kind of close to each other on the boat, and she definitely like made move to like scoot closer and then had to reach across me. And it felt very like we're like 14 years old. Oh, my gosh. Like this.
Starting point is 00:50:51 Oh, like her hands across my chest. And I was like, OK, I know what's happening here. But so there was a little bit of like that resistance. But I was just like, let me just we'll step back. And then, yeah, probably a couple of months later, then I was like, oh let me just, we'll step back. And then, yeah, probably a couple months later, then I was like, oh, I want to talk to her more. But I kind of evaded the friends trying to set you up thing. Yeah, I remember whenever Emily, Gunnar's wife, was like, yeah,
Starting point is 00:51:14 we all went out. I think Harry's going to do it. And I'm like, I don't. Did you see her arm on his chest? I'm not going to because they want me. I don't know. It's just weird. That's kind of how it felt.
Starting point is 00:51:24 It's like, because you guys want it, I'm not going to do it. And then once it's my idea. Right. So in the end, it works out. Did they set us up? Well, did you guys hear the story of Harrison's grand entry into like the friends? Yeah. He did it to himself.
Starting point is 00:51:38 What do you mean? So I think it was Josh. When I first met. Yeah, it was at Josh's birthday party. We've just met Harry playing pickleball. You guys all know the stereo or whatever the scenario. He's in KC, needs community. So I said, hey, you should come hang out.
Starting point is 00:51:52 It was Josh's birthday, whatever it may be. Harrison shows up with a full tray of Chick-fil-A chicken nuggets. What a way to make friends. Yeah, every single, single girl there. It's like a superpower. It's just like once every, all of it. The nuggets, Harrison. You get some Nuggets.
Starting point is 00:52:06 You get some Nuggets. And so, of course, all of these girls are like, okay, well, who are we going to set them up with? Like, that was just like their instant reaction. First thing on the mind. It's like, tall glass of water. Let's keep them around. Right.
Starting point is 00:52:19 This is how we're going to do this. Don't let him leave. And then it happened to be summer. And so, Emma's like, let's get Abby and Harrison on the boat. It's like, all right love it so currently trending the boat the boat baby history get them on the boat i like that i like that as like a phrase of like it means more than just literally being on the boat like hey i think i think we need to be praying for this guy let's get him on the boat i want to get you i want you to get you a t-shirt something like we'll do like a logo on the back it'll say let's get him on the boat get him on the boat. I want to get you a t-shirt. Something like, we'll do a logo on the back. It'll say, let's get him on the boat.
Starting point is 00:52:47 That's my dad's parenting advice. I was talking to him the other day. Hey, what's some good fatherhood? Father's Day is coming up. I was like, what's some good father advice? He's like, buy a boat. You put everyone together. I think one thing that he loves about it is he gets to know my friends better. He's learning who I am by Harrison and Peter
Starting point is 00:53:03 coming out on the boat. What kind of character they have. Yeah, what's going on in Gunner's life? Who's he choosing for friends? Who's he surrounding himself with? And the technology aspect, like you're not having your phones out as much. It just makes you enjoy the great outdoors.
Starting point is 00:53:17 And yeah, he gets to listen in on, hey, what are Abby and Harrison talking about? Maybe a little eavesdrop, whatever. But just like, yeah, you learn kind of what your kids are about, what their kids are doing. Oh, she's got a perforated eardrum. I don't know how to fix that. I got something just for that.
Starting point is 00:53:31 I'll fix anything. I'll show you how to get that. That's good. All right, Peter, currently trending, buddy. Currently trending. Buckaroo. Yeah, a lot of baby stuff, as you guys know, with kids. But for me personally, I've been spending a lot of time at as you guys know with kids um but for me personally i've been spending a lot of
Starting point is 00:53:46 time at costco okay hey what do you spend a lot of time doing what just shopping yeah um i'm to the point in my life like it feels sophie's grandpa talks about this a lot it's like you need something you just go to costco costco doesn't have it you probably don't need it um and i'm kind of i'm kind of there harrison went with me the other day honestly he introduced me to the what three dollar special dude yeah so that's insane it's insane there's no better like caloric value dollar per calorie value than if you go to costco you get the hot dog and drink for a dollar 49 free refills and then grab a slice of pizza which is like probably a quarter of a pizza. It's a huge piece of pizza. For $1.99.
Starting point is 00:54:26 So you're in for like $3.68 plus or with tax. Yeah. And that's like enough calories. And you're sitting at like 1,600 to 1,700 calories. And you're good. Like do that once a day, twice a day. We paid like eight bucks, both of us ate. It was one of the better dates I've been on in a long time.
Starting point is 00:54:40 That's great. You're welcome. You're a cheap guy. So yeah, you go, you peruse the sample section, then you grab a hot dog. And I mean, it's just right on the way out. So I guess I got to. Tried to eat some pizza with Annie the other day.
Starting point is 00:54:53 That was hard because I was holding her and eating a slice. And she's like, give me that. She's not allowed to eat pizza yet. They're at the grabby stage. But yeah, I've started buying clothes at Costco. Yeah? Dude, I've heard they have incredibly cheap... I think we got Bo's

Starting point is 00:55:36 No, keep going, baby. Yeah, so that's, you feel like a life stage transition when you feel like you can start buying everything at Costco. Yeah. It's like, it's like, I think, I think Costco's,
Starting point is 00:55:48 uh, you know, fashion's gotten better. It's like, it's gotten a lot better. Maybe, maybe your, your standards is going down a little bit,
Starting point is 00:55:53 you know, I'm at that point, which is, it's like, this stuff looks pretty good. Scary place to be. It's not bad. It's not bad.
Starting point is 00:56:01 Where value meets fashion. I mean, embrace it. Yeah. It's kind of fun. I like getting older. I could use another Greg Norman polo. I already could always get another.
Starting point is 00:56:10 I live in those. Get me some Skeechers. Some of them good old Skeechers. Will Severins is like swears by Skechers, dude. Oh, I've seen him wearing Skechers. He was so serious the other day. He's like, yeah, man. I was having foot problems and I was wearing on clouds. And Drew, his brother, he's like, yeah, man, I was having foot problems, and I was wearing on clouds.
Starting point is 00:56:26 And Drew, his brother, he's like, Drew looked at me, and he's like, Willie, I think it's your ons. He's like, dude, I bought $50 Skechers. Haven't had foot problems since. I'm sorry. That's great. Skechers, baby. I had a pair of Skechers golf shoes and they were
Starting point is 00:56:46 like walking on clouds really but Isaac would make fun of me for wearing it so hey I mean they got binged yeah in 10 years he'll yeah yeah I'll get him a pair for his birthday uh okay I want to talk about our next sponsor here uh we got Brio in the house Brio let's go Brio they are smokeless fire pits they also also have all these different add-ons to them. You can do skillet rests, griddles, grill plates. We actually just grilled on a Brio right before this. We had Good Ranchers burgers with the Brio grill.
Starting point is 00:57:17 Match made in heaven. It was awesome. It was so fun. Yeah, it's just such a fun thing that you can do. Brio, yeah, they have these smokeless fire pits. And so, A, that's cool because you can have fire. You can have that going without the smoke. Did you guys notice any smoke? No. Literally no smoke. Just a smoke show. Just a smoke show. Make it a baby. Yeah. Gunner was sitting out there just like, this is the perfect night. And you wouldn't think that if you're getting smoke all up in your face.
Starting point is 00:57:40 No. And so, yeah, Brio makes these really, really high quality smokeless fire pits made here in the USA. Um, and they're just amazing. They have all these different add-ons. Like I said, they have different sizes, um, for different budgets, all these different things. Um, but what was I sitting in a Brio chair? No, yes. They make chairs to the one-stop shop, dude. I really like whatever I can get nerdy on their chairs because they're Adirondack chairs, but they're seated like a little bit less at an incline. Like they're seated more upright.
Starting point is 00:58:12 And I think it's because they want you to be able to sit around the fire with them and do things a little bit easier, you know, lean forward to roast the mallows and whatnot. Let's say somebody went to like a public school. How would you define Adirondack or whatever that was? I was going to say Adirondack is such a fun word to say. Adirondack. It's like, uh, you would know, you would notice like, like they're like the
Starting point is 00:58:33 lake a lot. Like this is lower. Oh, okay. Yeah. Kind of, yeah. Kind of sit back in there. They have like the long, they have like the long, like, like, uh, unbelievable. You're good. Like if you're in a Cialis commercial, when they're looking at the, uh, when they're looking at the sunset, those are Adirondack, like steel tub. Well, if they're not in the tub, Brie Alice, Brie, Brie. Oh, yeah. Uh, no, I'm just kidding. That's great. Um, no, I, I, I genuinely love fire pits. I love the, the conversation that has can cap can happen around the fire pit along with just the fun thing. So not only does it obviously have functionality, but I'm, I'm convinced that you can deepen relationships around the fire pit.
Starting point is 00:59:14 And so I, I love, I love the company for that reason. I love the idea of buying one for that reason, because as men, especially, I think you have amazing conversations around the fire pit. As families, I think it's a great memory-inducing thing. So get yourself a Brio. You can get 10% off with promo code GRKC. It's Brio.com. You spell it B-R-E-E-O.com. B-R-E-E-O.com. GRKC is a promo code for 10% off. And we're just really thankful that there are sponsors and would love for you guys to support them. They're awesome. So, okay.
Starting point is 00:59:51 Next little segment we got here, we're bringing back ghosties on a couch. If you guys remember ghosties on a couch is a advice section. And so we had, I sent this out like, I don't know. I don't know. Earlier this afternoon thinking like, I hope we get enough questions.
Starting point is 01:00:06 So many people ask questions. I picked out a few of them for us to answer. And I think it'll be fun because I think some of them are serious. Some of them are funny. And it's just cool because these guys that are here with me, I think I just look up to them so much in so many ways. I think they have a lot of wisdom in different ways. So, Elizabeth, there's our fan Elizabeth, she asks, as a single mom to a 16-year-old son, I'm so inspired by godly
Starting point is 01:00:31 men and pray that is who he grows into. What advice do you have for me to continue to encourage him towards the right path? Is that advice to the mom? Yes. I want to hear Gunnar. Oh, wow. I want to hear Gunnar. Oh, wow. I want to hear Peter too. Because I feel like, yeah, Peter's done ministry for a really long time. I'd say never gave mothering advice. But I think just thinking of our culture today,
Starting point is 01:00:57 I think identity is a huge thing that we can miss at times. And so for that boy just to understand what his identity is in, being in Christ, knowing that he is a son of the king, would be what I want my daughter to walk away with whenever she's 16 and older. So, yeah, I think that goes for male, female, whatever. So, yeah, I'd say just knowing his identity is going to be what's going to propel him into college, into the workforce, whatever it looks like. That's very good. Because yeah, so many things at that age are coming at you and you're
Starting point is 01:01:30 trying to figure yourself out. And the one thing that you can be rooted in is your relationship with Christ. And so, and reinforcing that, I like that you said that identity is huge. You got anything? Yeah. I think, I mean, I think he has hit the nail on the head. Yeah. 16 is such a like important age and he's learning a ton about himself and who he is and who he wants to be. A lot of those things formulate in high school. Um, I think it's important for you to understand and realize that you don't have to do it by yourself. Um, I am so blessed in looking back, you know, mother day, mother's day season, father's day, um, of having great parents that spoke truth and love to me growing up. But I also had other people, um, whether that was coaches, whether it was youth
Starting point is 01:02:18 group leaders, um, small group leaders that spoke truth to me. Um, sometimes my parents were saying the exact same thing, and it just hit a little different from someone else. And so, you know, I think encouraging him to find godly men and women that partner with you. You know, we talked about in ministry a lot, like it's not our job to primarily disciple students. It's the parents' job, but we get to partner with them to just see their kids love Jesus. And so I think as he's growing in that, finding people that you get excited to partner with, to pour into him, to love him and to encourage him, I think is super valuable. Yeah, I think I remember in high school, I had a good relationship with my mom for sure, but I definitely would kind of roll my mom for sure, but I definitely would
Starting point is 01:03:06 kind of roll my eyes at her sometimes and think she would say, or whatever. Totally, yeah. I think that's just a normal thing. So Elizabeth, if you're going through that, if you've gone through that, just know that's a normal thing. We've all been those kids. Yes. And I was a good, in my opinion, a decent kid.
Starting point is 01:03:20 I loved my mom, but I still struggled with her sometimes with her authority, especially at that age. But just know that it was all really, really worth it. All the things she did for me, she never gave up on me or, you know, not, not that she had like something drastic to give up on, like, man, he's going down the wrong path, but like, she just continued to be disciplined and like push me in the right directions. And yeah, I think you can do the exact same thing very well and very, you can encourage, encourage them well. And like Peter said, alongside of you, it's so wonderful to have, I've just experienced it on the other side as the adult that's kind of pouring into the kid as well. You know, it's not my kid, but it's like,
Starting point is 01:04:03 man, I care about this kid. I care about his walk in his, you know, spiritual journey and his faith journey. And so it's really, really useful to have that as well. So if you don't have somebody else pouring into your child alongside of you, that's also another really just a practical thing you can do is find somebody like that. So fun, deep question to start it off. Um, okay. This one's kind of questions are going to get, I know this is a good, this is a, this one's, I think it, I think it's funny and could be somewhat serious. Ella, she wants to know what are some things that you consider red flags in guys from a dude's perspective? So I think in other words, like, like, let's, let's see another guy. Let's imagine, let's imagine it's our daughter bringing home a guy.
Starting point is 01:04:47 What is like, no way. Like this guy is, I mean, obviously first and foremost, if he doesn't have a faith, like if he's not a believer, you know, okay. Yeah. That's a red flag. Give him the Heisman. Yeah. What else?
Starting point is 01:05:03 Just like. Yeah. Both of you. I mean, does he brush his teeth? I was not expecting to have to think about my daughter dating. Yeah. Whatever. You know what I'm saying.
Starting point is 01:05:10 Feels like a long ways away. Yeah. Your daughter or... You taught her to growl already. She's just like... Yeah, that's going to be our go-to. Yeah. Just growl.
Starting point is 01:05:21 Yeah, so this is assuming they're 26 when they can start dating. Yeah, exactly. So they're 26 when they can start yeah exactly 26 years old okay that's what we're looking for these red flags I'd say just that can you have an adult
Starting point is 01:05:30 or having a conversation with an adult that's a huge thing so it's like is this man boy I don't know what age we're talking
Starting point is 01:05:36 about here but like can they look me in the eyes and like have a conversation with me sure I'm also a big believer of like them asking
Starting point is 01:05:42 for permission to take totally my daughter on a date so it's like to me if this is happening behind the scenes that would be a red flag I'm also a big believer of them asking for permission to take my daughter on a date. So it's like, to me, if this is happening behind the scenes, that would be a red flag. Which, yeah, I mean, I guess some people may not have that precedent. What age do you feel like that? That's you, though. I like that. Yeah, I'll have that precedent.
Starting point is 01:05:56 Delaney will know about that precedent. Is there like an age limit to that precedent? Like she's 28? Like a little Vinny trying to take Delaney on a date. Dude, they were holding hands the other day I know I'm watching him
Starting point is 01:06:08 it's cute now but it's not gonna be cute that's right yeah that's a good word though I like that yeah I think just just adult
Starting point is 01:06:15 have an adult conversation yeah because I've always heard that respect thing a guy is going to treat you in the same way he treats his mom
Starting point is 01:06:22 and so speaking of that like kind of what we were talking about with Elizabeth but like does he have a good relationship with his mom is he kind treats his mom. And so speaking of that, like kind of what we were talking about with Elizabeth, but like, does he have a good relationship with his mom? Is he kind to his mom? And if he's not, then what's he going to act like to you whenever you're... Well, Brad, let's unpack that.
Starting point is 01:06:34 How would you have been? I act like I was not good. I'm not trying to say I wasn't good to my mom. You were good. I was nice to my mom, but of course I was a teenager. So every once in a while I'll get frustrated with her. She'd get mad at me but of course I was a teenager, so every once in a while I'd get frustrated with her.
Starting point is 01:06:46 She'd get mad at me for something and I would be like, I didn't do it on purpose. Brad knows best. There was a while where I forgot to shut the garage door when I would leave. Eventually my mom finally got really, really mad at me. I remember saying, she's like,
Starting point is 01:07:02 I was like, I'm sorry, mom. I'm sorry. She's like, sometimes sorry isn't enough think I was like, I'm sorry, mom. I'm sorry. She's like, sometimes sorry. Isn't enough. And I was like, I think, I think Jesus says it is enough. Actually we're called to forgive every time. And, uh, yeah, anyway. So just like arguing about stuff like that, it wasn't like, whoa, terrible things or anything, but anyway, real answer. Who's in their boat. That's right. Like who are these guys? Four best friends, five best friends. Are there a bunch of jabronis? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:07:27 That could be a red flag. What does their environment say about them? Yeah. You've got like the Eddie Haskell from Leave It to Beaver. Yeah. Where he's just like can perform in front of the parents. I don't know. You don't know Eddie Haskell?
Starting point is 01:07:37 Oh, yeah, for sure. Really? Oh, my gosh. We grew up on five channels. What's Beaver's? Cleaver, right? Cleaver. Hey, Miss Cleaver.
Starting point is 01:07:44 Where he's like the nicest, like most polite, but then is just a little punk behind their backs. So I think that that speaks into the like friendship thing. Like I think anybody can put on a show for mom and dad for a short period of time, but you get to tell a lot about a person by what company they keep.
Starting point is 01:08:00 So I think that would be my big one would be stalking him. Yes. I think that would be my big one would be stalking him. Yes. I think kindness. I mean, that sounds really basic, but like just general kindness is a huge deal too, especially at that age. It's just, it's just easy to be too cool for everything a lot too. Sure. So being kind to people, I feel like that's a, you can generally, I feel like pick up on that when you're talking to a kid too. Kind of along the lines of just having an adult conversation or the – there's an accountability with that where they want to be a little more like forward-facing and they're not afraid to like – yeah, if it looks like they're kind of dodging around, I don't know. I feel like there's something there.
Starting point is 01:08:38 Yeah. Nothing that's not intimidating. I remember like being 14, 15, 16 where it's – sometimes it would be intimidating to talk to somebody's dad or something like that. But you just knew that came with it. You're like, I just got to suck it up because this is what I'm supposed to do. Right. This is the respectful thing to do. I know I need to do this. Are you guys going to be like a scary dad?
Starting point is 01:08:54 Gunner's going to be a scary dad. Look at you. He smiled so big when you said that. You have the shotgun out on the table. Gunner's known for like wearing the most, you never know what Gunner's going to come dressed up like. Never. Clothes, usually. I mean, usually.
Starting point is 01:09:10 Yeah. Are you going to like go sleeveless, maybe shirtless for this first encounter? I mean, you know what I mean? So yeah, we're talking 26 years from now. You're still going to be young. Oh yeah, he's going to be so young. You're going to be just fine. Got that old man strength. You're doing that weight board strength.
Starting point is 01:09:25 I think shirt off is still a presence thing. That's an alpha move. Even if you don't look. With just a vest on. With a fake tattoo that says death on the arm. Like a skull. You should see the last guy.
Starting point is 01:09:40 There's names all over your body. Kevin, Chad, Brad. It's like, what are those body. Like Kevin, Chad, Brad. It's like, what are those? Oh, don't worry about it. Don't worry about it. Don't worry about it. Do you,
Starting point is 01:09:49 you go to, yeah, you go to start his name. Like you just have like two letters, his first name on your, just in case, just in case, just getting started.
Starting point is 01:09:57 The classic, the name on the shotgun show, like Harrison, that shot wasn't meant for you. Uh, okay, Gracie, she just straight up wants to know who's in charge. Who's in charge?
Starting point is 01:10:11 Just Patrick. Patrick Mahomes. Gunner's in charge. Do you feel like Gunner's always kind of in charge? I'll take charge. On the boat? I'm out of the way. I'm like, yes, sir. I'll take a charge. I feel like if Gunner... On the boat? Okay, boat Gunner. Dude, boat Gunner is like... I'm out of the way. I'm like, yes, sir.
Starting point is 01:10:27 Yes, sir. Police, sir. I'll move there. I'll sit there, sir. I'll tie the shines. Dude, it's so fun when you encounter anybody doing their most passionate thing. And Gunner's most passionate thing is being on that boat. And it is awesome.
Starting point is 01:10:38 The first time that it happened, I was like... It felt like being at a boot camp or something. You're not moving quick enough. But once you're there, you're like, oh, this is how it is. It's like, okay, Mr. Duckworth, you know, being like bootcamp or something. You're not moving quick enough. And yeah. But once you're like there, you're like, Oh, this is how it is. It's like, okay. Yes. Mr. Duckworth. I will sit in this corner. Oh, you want me to move? Wait over there. Okay. I'll move over there. It's probably like normal to you. But I remember like the first time you wakeboard,
Starting point is 01:10:55 I watched you wakeboard and then you got done. You're talking to your dad and you're like, yeah, you guys were at 23 miles per let's go 23 and a half. And I'm like, what? Like he thinks that one half of a mile per hour is going to make, I'm sure it's like, yeah, it's just a thing. It's a golf club to other people. Yeah, true. It's like a difference makes a difference.
Starting point is 01:11:14 It's like that, you heard that Tiger Woods story where he was trying out a bunch of drivers and they were like, which driver do you like? And he's like, oh, the heavier one. And then they brought him back and weighed it and it was like a.00000. It was like, but driver do you like? And he's like, oh, the one that, the heavier one. And then like they brought him back and weighed it and it was like a 0.00. It was like, but he could feel that. I feel like that's Gunner on the, on the.
Starting point is 01:11:30 He's like, nah, we're just a little too fast. Just a little bit. Yeah. Yeah. That speedometer's off, I think. It's actually 23.45. Run a little slow. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:11:39 Each boat's speedometer's different. Yeah. Gunner feels like the right answer. Yeah, for sure. Gunner, even if he's like not like giving his opinion, it's like, hey, is Gunner, is Gunner okay with what we're doing here? Yeah. Like Gunner's kind. Gunner feels like the right answer. Even if he's not giving his opinion, it's like, hey, is Gunner okay with what we're doing here? Gunner's kind of just in charge.
Starting point is 01:11:51 I think about that, even when I'm by myself. I'm like, Gunner? What would Gunner say about this? Do I need to call him? Babe, let me ask Gunner really quick. He said it was okay. Gunner's okay with recording on Friday night, but not saturday night
Starting point is 01:12:05 so when we record friday night yeah which i feel like i was trying not to text at the end that message but i had to because no one else no one else was i was like okay that's fair i can't sorry but maybe harrison peter can i'm just gonna wait and give them the chance to take charge i was like all right we didn't want none of that we were supposed to record thursday it's to be that guy. We were supposed to record Thursday. It's Friday when we're recording this. We were supposed to record Thursday, but I wasn't feeling great. And so, yeah, delayed it to what we thought was going to be Saturday when maybe Isaac could come. Then we found out Isaac couldn't come at the date that Tymon could come.
Starting point is 01:12:38 Tymon's not here, but Gunnar couldn't come at all on Saturday. And I was like, let's just do it on Friday. Let's keep going. Yeah, we are. I was totally going to act like, let's just do it on Friday let's keep going we should have talked about it before where we acted like Tymon was here we don't have a microphone for him so he can't say anything see Tymon?
Starting point is 01:12:56 you get it Tymon he lost his voice just don't say that again who's in charge Jen asks, I'm going to a wedding next week where I'll only know a handful of people. When I get introduced to someone new, what's a random fun fact I should make up to introduce myself? Oh, boy.
Starting point is 01:13:12 Well, I don't think we should lie to people. Okay, Jen. Yeah. What are we thinking? But isn't it fun to like pretend? It is fun to get in character though. It's like you can be whoever you want to be. That's why I love wedding crashers so much. Before they go to the wedding, it's like you can be whoever you want to be that's why I love wedding crashers so much like before they go
Starting point is 01:13:28 to the wedding it's like alright we lost so many good men out there playing for the Yankees he's like yeah with trade deadlines I don't want to talk about it I can't talk about it got a fun fact from Jim I don't know if I have a fun fact but I think a good
Starting point is 01:13:43 not lesson a good mindset to have is to not have the static quo. Hey, what do you do for a living? Just asking the same questions. Like have a fun, quirky question that you're prepared to throw out to get some conversation going at your table or whatever the line. I know this is kind of popular here, but I always love to ask like, what is your favorite smell?
Starting point is 01:14:03 Oh, I think that you can learn a lot. I've always been a laundry guy. Wait, you say that's popular here? Well, because you guys did your whole smell thing. Let me try. I've never heard Gunner. I know we do it all the time, guys. Let's do a little horse. It changes weekly, so we talk about it a lot. I feel like we need a role play. We're currently trending
Starting point is 01:14:19 in the smell world. Love the smell of burnt rubber. That was just a recent i guess i see what you're saying i see the s'mores of smells yes right i've always like at camp we did our intros and like i'd always ask kids because we do like hot seat like i'd ask like so what is your favorite smell like that was i think just catches them off guard a little bit and it's just interesting okay but genuine like she said i'm not gonna know i only know a handful of people. So you're talking about going up to a stranger. First thing you say, Hey, what's up?
Starting point is 01:14:49 I'm Gunnar. What's your name? Oh, Jen. Yeah. Hey Jen. Nice to meet you. And Jen goes, Hey Gunnar, what's your favorite smell? And you wouldn't, you wouldn't have any hesitation. You'd be like cinnamon toast crunch. Yeah. Yeah. Well I say Jake triplets divas, diva detergent. Yeah. Almost as good as a QP goat soaps. Jake, your house smells really good, by the way. Yeah, it smells good. Is that Jake from Hollister? I feel like I'm getting hints of half-naked guys
Starting point is 01:15:15 and really tight-ripped jeans. Elmwood, I think that's it. Elmwood, yeah. Yeah, it's Elmwood. Also, I love Gunnerisms. You hear him say static quo. I let it go, but I just love when I grab. When I'm just around and I just want to.
Starting point is 01:15:29 He said something earlier, too, that was funny. I didn't even notice it, dude. Don't go into it thinking you got to keep the static quo. All right, I won't. I won't keep the static quo. That's why you should all read books. It's good for you. Books are for fools. That's funny. I'm going to add that It's good for you. Books and stuff. No, books are for fools.
Starting point is 01:15:47 No, but it's funny. I'm going to add that to the arsenal though. Static quo. I think that's good, Gunn. I like just the random questions. You can do a better question, but just don't, try to not do the status quo.
Starting point is 01:15:58 Status quo. Stick to the stuff you know. Anybody? No. Yeah, it's, I know, yeah. High school musical too. I was going to say everything you always sing always sounds like it's from a musical.
Starting point is 01:16:09 Like not just like- Speak for yourself. What? Broadway. Okay. Broadway Brad. Big Broadway boy. No, I meant that in a good way.
Starting point is 01:16:16 I really like when you sing. It's not like- We both have pipes. Like I feel like you, yeah, it sounds like, like that could have been from the Goofy movie. Yeah. Like it just sounds like it's got like a strong- Well, that's because that's just playing in my head all the time. Da, da, da, da.
Starting point is 01:16:28 It's just on loop. That's like this... No, it's like you get up and you get dressed in the morning and that's the... It's like a montage. You're like strolling out the closet. Oh, you know when he skates out the front and he swings around the gate and he's on a skateboard?
Starting point is 01:16:39 I'm like, that is dope. If I could go to school... And when he comes out at the end. When he comes out? Yeah. Oh, if I could go to school. And when he comes out at, at the end. When he comes out? Yeah. Oh, I haven't seen that version. It's the new,
Starting point is 01:16:49 it came out this year. Oh, it's the, yeah, it's on Disney Plus. This month, yeah. Sold at Target.
Starting point is 01:16:56 They're changing everything. Yep. Yeah. A little more serious one from Megan. It's kind of a long one. So buckle up. I'm raising two boys, ages 10 and seven.
Starting point is 01:17:08 I would love some advice on things that did and did not work for you when it comes to your upbringing. Kind of similar to the other one. Now that you are adult men, what did your parents do right when it comes to encouraging and guiding you as you grew up? And what things do you wish they did differently? I want to raise polite, respectful, and honest men and would love to know what will work and what will not, especially as a mother, how do I relate and get through to them when the hard days come and raise them to be the best they can be? Thanks so much. Megan, good luck. Thanks, Megan. What did your parents, like just off the top of your head, things that your parents did, things that you appreciate? We actually had, we're in a small group, me and Gunnar. We actually kind of talked about this recently.
Starting point is 01:17:48 But we were tasked with calling some older people. I think we all mostly ended up talking to our parents. But I had a conversation with them about, they talked about forgiveness or like having the conversation, even us growing up, like if they felt like they parented out
Starting point is 01:18:04 of anger or they did something that was like off, they made sure that they came to us and were like, hey, I'm really sorry. Like leveling with us, even if we were 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, like whatever, on like a human level of like, hey, that wasn't – I shouldn't have handled it that way. And that's like a really connective thing but also just – That's a good word. Yeah. I mean it just like leads you in to know like, Oh, this is what I'm supposed to do. And like, my parents aren't just some kind of domineering. They're not adults. They're models. Yeah. And they like struggle with the same things and they made the same mistakes. And Catherine's,
Starting point is 01:18:35 Catherine's done that. I feel like Catherine's talked to Hattie like a 10 year old since she was one year old. Like it's kind of amazing, But I feel like since Hattie was two or three years old, Catherine has done that. And I modeled that. I saw her do it, and now I do it as well. I'm like, hey, I'm sorry. I got angry at you, or I got short with you, or I wasn't paying attention to you, you know, whatever.
Starting point is 01:18:56 Big concepts, even. But I think that's huge, though. It's awesome. Hattie is not so good, but like after, after she comes down from a episode of frustration or whatever, she will apologize about it. And I think a lot of that has to do with Catherine showing her that example. So that's a good word. That's a good question to ask Catherine. Yeah. Catherine's like, talk about goat soap. She's, she's a good mom mom. She is a really, really good mom.
Starting point is 01:19:27 And she thinks about things. Very intentional. Yeah, is very intentional, very biblically based. Yeah, she's the best. She's really good. So yeah, I feel like because you guys got started earlier before everybody else, though, I feel like Catherine's a good. I can't speak for all the moms, but I feel like she's kind of the one that people, like all of our spouses look to. It's like, oh, how would we want to?
Starting point is 01:19:47 She's in charge. Yeah. Oh, you asked who's in charge? It's not Gunnar. It is for sure, Catherine. I called Catherine earlier and I was like, do you mind if we record the podcast? You're not even in town.
Starting point is 01:19:56 Is it cool if Peter comes? Peter can come too. Peter can come. Any other thoughts on that? I think parenting with intentionality is, like, huge as I look back. Like, one thing we did as a family was we had dinner together every night. And talking to friends, like, in college and stuff, that was so rare for a lot of families. But even though we were playing sports and there was age gaps and sisters had stuff going on, we always, like, it wasn't even, like, a question of whether we were going to eat dinner together.
Starting point is 01:20:31 And so it was just something that was a priority. And family devotions had every night until I was, like, 16. Yeah. walkthrough devotional book, which I think just seeing their discipline in their own lives of like, hey, they're not just like being like, hey, you need to live this way. They're- They're playing it out. Practicing it and showcasing it and modeling it for us and bringing us along in that was huge. That's a good word. Yeah. Protect the dinner table.
Starting point is 01:21:03 Absolutely. Yeah. I feel like it's getting easier and easier not to these days because there's so many things kids are doing like it was so normal for me to only play three sports and only play them seasonally and now it's like you're playing three sports you're in soccer oh you're you're playing soccer all year long like whatever so anyway um okay calvin i don't think it's the same calvin maybe it is asks who's the coolest out of the four of you that not me same calvin gunner i think this is easy you guys gunner's in charter is gunner is super cool you guys are really cool though why do you think he has jake's chair we were like i can't sit there no you're sitting there
Starting point is 01:21:43 yeah it's probably gunner the prince of egypt is the coolest yeah what you're trying to say i think he is yeah that's fair the prince uh or the mustache i don't know peter's like really cool too he's so scary really cool there's guys peter's like super cool he's like he's like that that guy does incredible. When I was thinking about, is it cool? He was like, yeah. It's cool. It's really, really cool. Big time, yeah.
Starting point is 01:22:10 Yeah. Big time. I don't need a question. Anybody think I'm cool? Yes. Okay, KB from Virginia. Yes. KB from Virginia asks, Brad, a while back you gave some great parenting advice that
Starting point is 01:22:23 we use on the daily now with our toddler boys, which said ask politely and specifically, please. Any other parenting tips slash tricks from yourself or the other dads in the room? Harrison, you're... I'm just going to push this over here. I'm going to step out on this one, all right? I'm going to Shaquille O'Neal to Chris Dudley on this one, all right?
Starting point is 01:22:48 Look, Ma, no hands. Man, that was a good reference. I wish I got it, but I didn't get it. You didn't get it? I'm sorry. The best dunk of all time. Shaq just – is his name Chris Dudley? Is that his name?
Starting point is 01:22:59 Something Dudley. Didn't matter. I knew exactly what you meant. Shaq dunks on this New York Knicks guy, and after he dunks, just so just oh yes it was like a hard it wasn't just like i didn't know i didn't know who he shoved that's what it was smooth to the ground right it was yeah yeah and the guy gets up and throws the ball at shack yes time will put it in and also can you imagine being shoved by shack prime shack no that's what i'm saying it looks so smooth can you imagine getting shoved by shack and then throwing a ball at shack yeah no i would not yeah just like getting up this is a good idea
Starting point is 01:23:31 i would not have the basketballs to throw the basketball yeah no chance but you did i saw a video the other day of like brothers playing ping pong and the younger one misses a shot and throws his paddle and just smacks the older one in the face. And the guy yells and then starts chasing him. And it's just like the little one's just like, ah! Just like in his prepubescent voice. Like that was Chris Dudley in that moment.
Starting point is 01:23:55 He throws the ball and then it's just like, what did I do? I messed up. He's seven foot two himself. I mean, he's a huge dude, but he looked, I mean, tiny. Teeny weeny? Yeah. Itty bitty. You know that audio or that meme that's like, I need to tell you something. Teeny weeny? Yeah. Itty bitty.
Starting point is 01:24:05 Itty bitty. You know that audio or that meme that's like, I need to tell you something. I need to tell you something. The guy, he's like about to, I need to tell you something. It's like what you say when you're trying to distract somebody who's about to kill you. That's how I feel. There was a guy. No, wait, wait, wait.
Starting point is 01:24:17 Oh, the guy's getting ready to fall backwards. I think so. I need to tell you something. Wait. In high school, Jacob Grote would always, anytime like you were about to mess with him, he would, he had a lisp and you would always go, no, ow, stop to like, stop, make people stop like messing. No, ouch, stop. It was so funny. Um, oh, any other parenting? Who was the coolest tricks for parenting? Oh for parenting. I feel weird giving parenting advice, given that I'm pretty weak.
Starting point is 01:24:48 You're a dad now, man. I'm a dad. To toddlers, feel sorry. I mean, the Gatorade bottle is one. Life hack parenting. If you see a free Gatorade bottle at a golf course, pick it up. Snag it. Pick it up.
Starting point is 01:25:00 I think just a tangible, just pray for them. That's a good word. All the time. Yeah. Well, I was going to say something completely, just pray for him. That's a good word all the time. Yeah. Well, I was going to say something completely not as deep as that. Yeah. I think, well, I guess it's kind of deep. It's not as deep as that. Um, I, I've kind of gotten the realization more. It's not really a tip or a trick, whatever it is. Um, I've just gotten the realization more and more that there's a difference between childishness and disobedience.
Starting point is 01:25:25 Like, I think sometimes kids are just don't know what they're doing. Like they don't know that they're disobeying. And so you have to teach them the right way. And then if they continue to disobey, then you discipline them for disobeying. So like, I I've just been having more sympathy towards Bo in some things, but in other things when he's like, no, I don't want to pick up the Legos. I don't want to, it's like, well,, I don't want to pick up the Legos. I don't want to. It's like, well, you know you have to pick up the Legos. It's one thing if he accidentally picks them up the wrong way and they all dump out or something.
Starting point is 01:25:53 You can't be upset with him for that. There's not a lot of gray area in him being like, I just don't want to do that. No, I don't want to do that. I don't do that, Dad. That's not me. Yeah, I'm not a picker-upper. I make the messes.
Starting point is 01:26:04 I don't pick up. That's you, Dad. I'm not I'm not a picker-upper I make the mess I don't pick up I see you dad I'm a messy guy anyway yeah but I'm trying to think of he is gonna be a messy guy I know
Starting point is 01:26:11 he's gonna have barbecue sauce down his face yeah oh like physically oh yeah not like clothes messy he's gonna have
Starting point is 01:26:18 stains on his shirt he's gonna be a force he's gonna be so cute he's kinda got this like engineering like type of like he'll take his cowboy boots and take them back into his room and put them pretty precisely back where they're supposed to go and stuff.
Starting point is 01:26:31 So he might be a little more tidy. But then again, so am I, and I spill stuff on myself all the time. Harris and I were talking about how we don't have white shoes because you spilled salsa on yours all the time? Yes. Every pair of white shoes that I own has at least one little drop of salsa. And I don't know why it's just salsa. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:26:48 So it's like peppers. Baked beans, Brad. I got some shoes ruined by baked beans multiple times. It's like after the first one, it's like, be careful of the baked beans. Yeah. Here they come again. Yeah. Right there on the shoe.
Starting point is 01:26:59 Right. It's like when, what's his name, John Mulaney? When he's talking about like, I thought the quicksand was going to be a way bigger deal when I was a kid. Nobody told me about baked beans. I didn't know baked beans were going to be such an issue. Sneak up on you. Do a little John, do that in John Mulaney's voice. Can you do it? Ah, I don't know. Is that it?
Starting point is 01:27:19 Is that your goat? Ah, no one's talking about the baked beans. There it is. I don't know. That was close. The first couple of words were good. Middle schoolers. They hit you where it hurts.
Starting point is 01:27:34 I don't know. Oh, man. Okay. Let's end them there. I think that's fun. Unless you got... Let's see. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 01:27:43 This is a fun one. Not a fun one. This is a good is a fun one. Not a fun one. This is a good one for you guys. Uh, AC asks, uh, two things. Well, first one is what is your favorite dinosaur? T-Rex. Velociraptor. Velociraptor.
Starting point is 01:27:56 Ready? Three, two, one. Velociraptor. Do we just become best friends? I think we did. Dragosaur? Dracosaur. It was like my brother's game.
Starting point is 01:28:06 We were younger. I thought it was soaur? Dracosaur. It was like my brother's gamer tag when we were younger. I thought it was so cool. Dracosaurus rex. You like made your name into like a dinosaur, bro. That's pretty sick. I think there's a lot more dinosaurs than we grew up with. You know the one that has like the horns? It almost looks like a T-Rex with horns on its head.
Starting point is 01:28:21 It's got like kind of a specific name. The rhino one? I don't think it's a rhino. What about Pokemon? Bo's got like a dinosaur set and so many of the names I've never even seen before. It just seemed, it's what I'm saying. I just think we had limited information we were working with. You're right. It was like T-Rex.
Starting point is 01:28:33 It was like Raptor, Stegosaurus, Bron- Bronchorus. What did you say? Static quo. That was wrong. Bronchitis. Bronchosaurus. Bronchosaurus.
Starting point is 01:28:45 Three hay. Okay. Second question she asked Bronchitis. Bronchosaurus. Bronchosaurus. Three hay. Okay. Second question she asked, though, is what are some practical ways I can encourage my husband as a Christian man? How do you like to be encouraged? Or what are some practical ways? I think just bringing attention to their faith and how they lead in their faith. I think like not foregoing that and making sure to make a point to say that.
Starting point is 01:29:11 I know at least I'm speaking for what Abby does for me when she is encouraging me. Like if she notices something, like either it's with her or it's with somebody else, like a friend or the way that I'm trying to lead in a Christlike way, she'll call attention to that. And for me as her spouse, that's a very kind of reinforcing, a very affirming thing. I think that we can really do that for each other, really. Yeah. I feel like Catherine often will ask, how can I help in this? Or what can I do to help you better do like,
Starting point is 01:29:47 like if I share a goal with her, she will say, okay, how can I help you? And like, it's, it's a simple thing. And I know in my head and my heart that she will be willing to help, but her like initiating that question to me is like, so energizing. It's like, yes, like you're willing to help. It's not a burden for you to help, or maybe it is a burden, but it's not a burden that you're not willing to take on unless I ask, I guess, if that makes sense. Like, and I think spiritually, like as a Christian man, there's so many different things going on that affect us spiritually. And so, it doesn't have to necessarily strictly be on, you know, like the
Starting point is 01:30:26 spiritual level. It can be within work, within, I don't know, habits that he has that may seem somewhat innocent or whatever. It's like, no, those things can make a difference one way or the other. So when, when Catherine's like, how can I help you? It's like, oh, that's amazing. I feel so encouraged by that. So anything else? I'd say, I'm trying to figure out a word for this, be excited about the budget. Like get down with it. Discount Duckworth.
Starting point is 01:31:01 Don't make Gunnar bring it up every time. Yeah, well, not that. Like this is not a negative line on Emily. Emily's amazing with this stuff. I think that can cause conflict in relationships. It's just being down to get into it and figure it out and move on. Yeah. I feel like budget was a big thing early on in our marriage of like,
Starting point is 01:31:21 it feels like it's me against you. And now it doesn't. Now it feels like, how are we going to figure this out together? And that is awesome. When you get to that point, it is. FPU, baby. Yes, dude. Financial peace.
Starting point is 01:31:36 We are graduates together. Same blood class. Was it a conversation of my money versus her money? Or was it more like just conflicting ideas of how we should spend it and what should be spent? Well, the budget specifically was, you want us to have a budget. I don't want to because that means that I don't get to spend money anymore. And it's like, that's not true.
Starting point is 01:31:59 It just means that we had to be more strategic with what we're doing with it. And if you really want X, Y, Z, then let's figure out ways to get that. But we have to sacrifice somewhere else. Like it's, obviously we don't make infinite amounts of money. And so it's just like, you got to figure out the balance there. So, um, I just think it's, it's, it's been great to like, learn like, okay, we want to save up to renovate our bathroom. That means we're going to have to not do this and that's okay. You know, like rather than like, I really want a bathroom. That means we're going to have to not do this. And that's okay. You know, like rather than like, I really want a bathroom.
Starting point is 01:32:28 It's like, no, we can't do that. We're not budgeting for that right now or whatever, you know? So, and she's like, well, great. We don't have it because it's not in the budget. Well, darn budget kind of thing. Gunner's a big budget boy. Yeah. I mean, not me too.
Starting point is 01:32:43 Yeah. We resonate with each other in that regard for sure we'll just i think thinking back to that class what was nice is like kind of talking about that i don't know what the scenario was we were giving like that 16 year old advice it's like everyone hears the same advice but when they hear from somebody different it kind of yeah it's different yeah so we kind of had that mediator it's not gunners or it's not my idea it's yeah it's not my dad it's not my mom's whatever it's not harrison's it's scott dad's, it's not my mom's, whatever. It's not Harrison's.
Starting point is 01:33:07 It's Scott McDonald's. Was it your idea to do the class? No, I think it was my dad's idea. And I think about it. He's like, this is a great tangible thing to do. I'll pay for the class, but you need to take it kind of thing. That is, my parents have said the same thing. They're like, we'll pay for you to do it. My goodness.
Starting point is 01:33:25 It was very helpful. It was very out of your budget. Which they, I mean, a lot of the things that I learned in that class was like, okay, I see what my parents were teaching me. Totally, yeah. And there's a lot of those rules, like, oh, that's what we had to do with our car. That's how we did it. That's cool. I love that your dad's advice is buy a boat.
Starting point is 01:33:38 But before you do that, go to FPU. Terrible financial advice. I love it. Buy a boat. You got anything, PD? I feel super encouraged when like Sophie is so full of grace. One,
Starting point is 01:33:53 she's super, she has great questions, which is super encouraging. I think kind of to your point, but then how she handles my mistakes with grace, um, encourages me to want to do better. Um, just the way that she walks through those situations. Um, you know, I think there are healthy ways to walk through. I think there are ways that can make it worse or harder in certain situations. Um, and the way that she handles those really encourages me to,
Starting point is 01:34:26 to, um, love her better, to parent better, to work harder. Um, and so I'm just thankful for that. And so thinking through like our lives, that that's kind of how, how one way, how did she, uh, well, is it okay to explain the, uh, passport, uh, story? Did she have grace? She almost went without me. Um, I, she did. It took her a minute. She's pretty frustrated in the moment, which is understandable. So we went to Mexico three weeks ago and she, we found out probably in January that my passport was going to expire, or had expired. It had expired, which you don't think about because it's every 10 years.
Starting point is 01:35:10 You've got 10 years on a passport, so it's just out of sight, out of mind. She's like, hey, you need to go get this taken care of. It's going to take this amount of time. And so looking to it, I was going to have to go all the way out to like 184th in Metcalf, which is so far away. And so I'm like, I don't have time for that today. I'm going to have to go all the way out to like 184th and Metcalf, which is so far away. And so I'm like, I don't have time for that today. I'm going to do it later.
Starting point is 01:35:29 And later ended up being like five months later. Oh wow. And so it was like, yeah, it was like, I walked both ways. And so, yeah,
Starting point is 01:35:41 so I, I make, I make the trip out. Um, and like the first thing I say when I get to the desk, I'm like, I made a big mistake. And she's like, well, here's what you can do. You can fill it out. You can send it in.
Starting point is 01:35:52 And then when you're two weeks out from your trip, you can contact them and see if they'll, like, hurry it up for you. And so we're, like, a month out. And it's supposed to take, like, exped like expedited is like six to seven weeks. And I didn't tell her I should have told her right away. And I did not. I told I waited like a week and a half. And so it's like, hey, here's the situation. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:36:19 And luckily, we made it to Mexico. Sharice Davids hooked it up. Yeah. Got us a caseworker. Passport came a day before we left. Wow. Wait, Cherise Davids? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:36:32 State representative. Apparently, if you're looking for a passport, they can pull some strings. Just call the office. You call the office. You are connected. Yeah, they made a call to the U.S. Passport Agency Company, and they got it done. So they're like, look, Sophie's going to kill Peter.
Starting point is 01:36:51 I was literally like, hey, here's the situation. This is a five-year anniversary trip, and we might not make it to six unless it's here. We're talking about a man's life here. I heard the Crimestoppers got included. Yeah, seriously, it was by horseback. It came in the mail. Would you say you're just so thankful for that grace,
Starting point is 01:37:09 or have you found yourself, you don't bank on it? Yeah, no, no, no. It's like you're just so thankful once it happens, you're like, oh, gosh, Sophie, you're the best. Also, Sophie, you're the best, by the way. Just shout out Sophie. She's the best. She's so great.
Starting point is 01:37:20 No, I think, one, it makes me want to handle situations with more grace. I think there are some times when, in the moment, I can one, it makes me want to handle situations with more grace. Like I think there are some times when in the moment I can get frustrated at things and just seeing the way that she walks through things. So Christ-like it pushes you to want to honor that. I mean, it's the same with like your relationship with Christ, like because of the cross, it doesn't give us freedom to sin. But I think that pushes us to want to walk towards it, run towards it, and live a life that's glorifying to God.
Starting point is 01:37:50 So I'd say the same thing. She just exemplifies that really well in marriage, and that encourages me to want to be the best version of myself. There's a little moisture in Peter's eyes. I love it, actually. Come on on Petey that's real stuff that was Ghosties on a Couch good answers guys we have some more stuff to go

Starting point is 01:40:06 Charles Duckworth who's the coolest one out of us who's the one in charge and it is the Mount Rushmore of fashion trends and I feel like that is decently vague and I think it's going to be fun
Starting point is 01:40:21 it's a lot to work with so Gunner it was your choice to do this so therefore I would like you to choose the order that we's going to be fun. That's perfect. It's a lot to work with. So Gunnar, it was your choice to do this so therefore I would like you to choose the order that we're going to go in. Okay. Let's think about this. I don't want to go first or last. So let's start with
Starting point is 01:40:37 Harrison. Wait a minute. You dog. How many? Four or five. Four faces. How many four or fives? Four faces. How come I always want to think there's five people on Mount Rushmore? Name them. Macaulay Culkin.

There's a spot reserved. Anybody ever seen Richie Rich? In your mouth. There's five. There's going to be five. There's four.
Starting point is 01:41:06 Don't put me on the spot. Washington. Yeah. Lincoln. Yeah. Jefferson. Jefferson. And who's the other one?

Starting point is 01:41:32 Four. Yeah, we'll go. Four, yeah. We'll go this way. We'll circle. Harrison, Gunner, Brad, Peter. Peter gets to go last. Let's go.
Starting point is 01:41:40 All right. Harry, I mean, obvious first pick, right? Obvious. Powdered wigs, obviously. I mean, I don't know why those ever went away. I feel like we should bring those back. Do you think they went away quickly? It's 100% mine.
Starting point is 01:41:56 Don't scoff. Okay, so let's set a rule right now. You don't scoff at the other person's options. You 100% scoff. That's not your choice. You do not scoff. You said that so nonchalantly. Of course, powdered wigs. I mean, George Washington
Starting point is 01:42:08 is on the schmoor. He's on the schmoor. I mean, this is all time, right? We're talking about all time. Wait, what is a powdered wig? What do you mean? I mean... A powdered wig versus like a wig? A wig. A powdered wig. The white ones. It's the white ones and they
Starting point is 01:42:24 literally powder them. On top and the inside? Imagine we all just walked around with bowling ball bags, but instead of bowling balls, they were wigs. And we kept little powder packs in. Powder packs. We kept them fresh. You got any powder packs? Okay.
Starting point is 01:42:37 Yeah. I don't know. I just think it would be cool. Okay. So Harrison's first fashion trend is powdered wigs. Think about, too, like we'd all have powder wigs. And so it's kind of like, no. Nobody would have powdered wigs. Think about, too, like we'd all have powdered wigs. And so it's kind of like – Nobody would have powdered wigs.
Starting point is 01:42:49 That's what I was going to say. When everybody's super, no one is. Deep. No, that's kind of communism, isn't it? So I don't want to get into that. That's not what I'm looking for. No, he was not. Powdered wigs.
Starting point is 01:43:01 You just have presidents on the brain, so you're like, yeah, powdered wigs. Yeah. Final answer. Okay, great. Presidents on the brain, wigs on. Powdered wigs. You just have presents on the brain, so you're like, yeah, powdered wigs. Yeah. Final answer. Okay, great. Presents on the brain, wigs on the dome. Come on. I would go with timeless. Everyone will probably wear this this week, and it's just denim.
Starting point is 01:43:16 Specifically denim on denim, I think, is nice. The Canadian tuxedo. I was about to say. Just anything, yeah. Denim jacket, denim pants, denim polo. Denim. Denim is. I was about to say. Just anything, yeah. Denim jacket, denim pants, denim polo. Denim. Denim is. What?
Starting point is 01:43:28 Oh, denim. Oh, denim num pants. It just, it hits. Denim gunner. Without top. Any occasion. Yeah. Dress it up, dress it down.
Starting point is 01:43:38 Go on wakeboarding. Have a nice pair of shorts. Jeans shorts. Pretty good. Hot. Wow. Okay, for my first pick, I'm going to go with the wonderful way to warm yourself up in the 90s. Starter jackets.
Starting point is 01:43:53 Starter. Let's go. Those are nice. Those are so sweet, dude. There's just something cool about. Fun fact, for the 90s Christmas video, we borrowed a bunch of Gunners clothes to wear, and I got to wear a couple of them. That makes sense now that you say that.
Starting point is 01:44:09 You ever seen that photo of Tony Dungy and somebody else? I think when Tony Dungy was with the Vikings maybe, and then it's a Packers coach. They're like standing there, just them two standing there, and they're decked out in 90s. It's like in the coach's gear. But it looks like they walked off the street like street wear. Well, I don't think I posted online. You know what I'm talking about? The 90s next week.
Starting point is 01:44:27 Good looking stuff though. Anyway, you're right. It's dope. That's a good starter logo. I'm not going to scoff at that, Brad. That is a good choice.
Starting point is 01:44:33 Good choice. So yeah. Do you think that's better than powdered wigs or just about the same? About the same. Okay. Peter. Pick number one. Graphic tees.
Starting point is 01:44:45 Whoa. You guys are going so broad. Graphic tees. Whoa. You guys are going so broad. Powdered wigs. This man said denim. Denim is broad, yeah. I feel like graphic tees isn't broad at all. It's like a t-shirt with a graphic on it. Right?
Starting point is 01:44:58 By definition, you are correct. You're wearing a graphic tee. Am I wearing one? I'm wearing a white tee. You're not even wearing a graphic tee. I'm not wearing a graphic tee. Am I wearing one? I'm wearing a white tee. You're not even wearing a graphic tee. But I think they changed the game. Look at Gunner. It says so much about you.
Starting point is 01:45:12 It does say a lot about you. You've got your guys wearing the tap out graphic tees. Then you've got Gunner wearing the Travis Kelsey vibes. He's a Chiefs fan. I know that about him by what he's wearing. I bet Gunner's a Chiefs fan. I know that about him by what he's wearing. I bet Gunner's a Chiefs fan. I would
Starting point is 01:45:28 think so. You've got the really cool Bible graphic tees that you... I like the ones that are plays off of... The Reese's logo. I'm not going to recover from that. The one that looks like the Mountain Dew logo, but it says
Starting point is 01:45:43 Jesus saves on it. Yeah. Those were at the Windermere gift shop. Oh, I bet they were. Those were there. All over the place. I bet they were. Those were the Bible drill prizes.
Starting point is 01:45:53 Oh, Petey. How many Jesus Fish t-shirts did you have growing up? A breadcrumb and fish for Abercrombie. I had the spirit sprite one. A breadcrumb and fish. Is that real? Oh, that's so good. I could go on and on. A breadcrumb and fish. Is that real? Oh, that's so good. I could go on and on.
Starting point is 01:46:07 A breadcrumb and fish. Oh, that's good. You got a second pick, Petey? Oh, I get to go again? We're going snake draft? Snake, snake, snake. I do. Cargo pants slash cargo shorts.
Starting point is 01:46:21 Fashion trend. Functional. Dude, you had them. You want it to come back yeah absolutely well i just this goes back to my like costco face oh because you could put things in the pockets yeah i'm old enough think about how many hot dogs and a lot of things in my pockets i going to the zoo so many hot dogs so many people would you rather be baggy or a little bit tighter um or a little bit of both you know unzip we're not i'm not gonna wear some like slim fit cargo pants but they're not gonna be like cargos yeah they're
Starting point is 01:46:57 not gonna be like boot cut either um and extra points if they zip off. The zipper? Or the pockets? For sure. They make those? No, from pants to shorts. I got baptized in a pair of those. From Old Navy. Did you take them off? Oh, no. Well, I wore them full pants to church. And then when I got in the tank, they were shorts.
Starting point is 01:47:33 They were kind of like wind pants, too. It's like they're a little swishy. Oh, no. Wait, when did you take off the calves? You like walked around to the back room and so he's like, wearing pants, now he's wearing shorts. Did he change? Nope. He just zipped off
Starting point is 01:47:51 the bottoms. Your idea or your parents? My idea. Good for you. They were like, you know you're getting baptized today. Yeah, gotta look good. Look at this. Alright. Didn't even see it coming. That was great peter uh my next pick is a fashion trend that's actually trendy right now to an extent but i am so happy that it is and i am
Starting point is 01:48:15 going to be sad the day that they don't they're not trendy anymore they're not acceptable socially anymore is joggers oh i think joggers are the greatest I mean they're comfortable but they're not super frumpy looking like you can still look pretty good in them I've seen you so I just love joggers they're great for the shoes too if you're a guy you want to showcase your shoes
Starting point is 01:48:38 boom first man that I ever saw in joggers consistently Peter Casey. Thank you. A.K.A. That's why it was hard for me to say who's the coolest one here. Because Peter is fashion forward.
Starting point is 01:48:51 I got a phone call from my old K-Life leader like four or five days ago. And he's like, Peter, your brother-in-law has just accused you of something. And Aaron Weaver says that I wear my pants too high he's like you can see his ankles that's not okay i feel like jog joggers made yes yes pretty popular sounds like somebody's out of touch yeah he probably wears cargo pants not the zip-off swishy kind of showing off your ankles could be a red flag going back to what we were talking about earlier. Really? Yeah, just not guarding hearts. That's true. Your ankle bones are out.
Starting point is 01:49:27 That's true. Hey, bones. I'm not letting you walk in my home. Hey, you got to cover those up. All right, big gun. What's your action? Fashion trend, whatever. Yeah, number two.
Starting point is 01:49:38 I'm going to go with this is important to me because it saved my life when I was struck by lightning. Life jacket. It is Crocs. Wait, what? You got struck by lightning is Crocs. Wait, what? You got struck by lightning? Back up. Crocs are... Back it up. Are you guys making stories up? I really got baptized in
Starting point is 01:49:53 the argument. The way you said that, dude. Are you guys making stories up? What's this about? I'm not in on this. What's this about the lightning? Are you guys... You know me. Are you guys... You know me. Are you guys just BSing me all the time? You guys can't. You got struck by lightning.
Starting point is 01:50:08 You zip up pants. You're baptized. Bro. Yeah. I've known Gunnar for a long time. I've never heard this story. No, me neither. Yeah, so...
Starting point is 01:50:17 Is that what happened? Which makes us think the hair. This is totally a true story. Gray spot. People always are trying to tell me what it is you ever go to great clips they're always like hey that's a birthmark blah blah blah so well they're you would think a birthmark you would get when you were born but this showed up when i was 18 years old after a very specific event out on the lake not on the water but like at the lake wearing crocs it's very stormy the boys are still being boys and
Starting point is 01:50:45 we're out there boys gonna be boys and then all of a sudden no way struck by lightning but no way no way now you guys are engineers i had crocs on so i was grounded the rubber rubber soles oh sure i was grounded yeah therefore i did not die It's the same technology they use in car tires. Correct. So that's why Crocs are kind of what inspired tires. You know what could have happened? Which came first. You should have told Crocs that story,
Starting point is 01:51:15 and then you'd be like the dang Daniel guy. But for Crocs. So you're like the guy that 20 minutes ago said, hey, don't lie to people? No. No? Okay. No? Okay. No, no, no.
Starting point is 01:51:26 Just making sure. Okay. Is that real? That could be a pretty big red flag. Yeah. Two. Got it. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:51:32 What was it? The Crocs or the getting struck by lightning and then die? Well, if you're wearing joggers, definitely. Bro, joggers and Crocs do okay. I mean, Justin Bieber, Crocs. Jogs and Crocs? Boy, is he going jogs and Crocs? What are we doing? Yeah. Justin Bieber, Crocs. Jogs and Crocs. Boys, we're going jogs and Crocs? What are we doing?
Starting point is 01:51:47 Justin Bieber, Crocs. The guy that is 100 pounds overweight and works at shops like Cabela's, Crocs. Best buy. Yeah. Just everyone's rocking the Crocs. Got to pair for every person. Gen Z loves them. Yes.
Starting point is 01:52:01 You get your second and third pick. Okay. But by definition, is this kind of just like a way... Does it have to be a fashion trend or can it just be like a way to stunt on somebody you just like? I just... First thing that comes to mind is like you're in third grade.
Starting point is 01:52:16 You get to go to the dentist. When you come back on the way back, you swing by McDonald's. No, that's not a fashion trend at all. You get a Happy Meal. You put that Happy Meal up on your desk and you just sit there and listen to the teacher and everybody looks at all. You get a Happy Meal. You put that Happy Meal up on your desk and you just sit there and listen to the teacher and everybody looks at you and they see your Happy Meal. They smell the nugs. Yeah. And they know
Starting point is 01:52:31 that you went. This is why we told you to write things down, Harry. I'm so confused how we got there. I don't know. Maybe like, you know, getting food that's not from the cafeteria. But that was a baller move. Did your dentist have a toy chest that you like?
Starting point is 01:52:49 Oh, yeah. It's overwhelming, though. I never knew what to pick because there's just so much stuff. Do you want the slinky or the little like? Yeah, you want the sticky hand? Oof. I mean, bringing up cargos and Crocs, I can see how he thought the idea of stunting on people.
Starting point is 01:53:01 Yeah. I know. That's what I thought. I was like, oh, I see what you're doing. We're balling out. I was doing some w, I see what you're doing. We're balling out. We're trying to impress you. I was doing some waltz into the baptism.
Starting point is 01:53:10 You know, they had their day, but fighting necklaces. Did anybody have a fighting necklace in here? I got one given to me. I did not buy it. Was it braided? Was it a double with the braids? No. That's expensive. I remember I bought one myself, and I didn't know my neck size,
Starting point is 01:53:23 so I bought one too small. Then I just had a choker. And I wore it anyways. Can you imagine how one myself, and I bought, I didn't know my neck size, so I bought one too small. And I just had a choker. And I wore it anyways. Can you imagine how intimidating I am on the mound? And I'm like, let's go. And I've got a choker just bold. And they're like, this guy, I'm about to blow your doors off. Yeah, right.

These commandments that I give you today are to be on your hearts. Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up. Tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads. Write them on the doorframes of your houses and on your gates.
