Jake, something happened to me this week and I'm haunted by it. How intrigued are you? It feels like I just cracked open a Colleen Hoover novel and I just can't wait to flip the page. I was coming home from the gym the other day. It was raining six out of ten. Not bad. It wouldn't be out there. Pretty nice rain. Hustling to the car, but also knew like the Mythbusters thing about like, hey, walk in the rain, you get less wet than if you run. You heard that? I don't believe it. I don't buy it either, but I was doing it. I was doing it. Yeah. What, uh, like what out of 10 do you start to jog?

Or you're like, all right, forget myth busters. I'm scooting seven, like six, six felt a little silly, but I was kind of like, Hey, I'm just going to be the cool guy that walks in the rain. I didn't have an umbrella. Anyway, as I'm walking to my car, uh, another woman is walking on the sidewalk, walking in, uh, doesn't have a full gym bag, just has her little like fanny pack looking thing. Um, but it's putting her keys back or something and drops her deodorant, like a little like travel deodorant out of it. And I didn't say a word and I've, I've, I've thought about it for multiple days since I know I was like, cause it was like, uh, I want to get multiple days since. That's weird. You didn't say anything. I know. I was like, because it was like, I want to get in my car.

It's wet. And I don't know. And is it really that big of a deal to you if you're not even going to shower here? You know, you're not bringing a change of clothes. And it's travel. It's a travel size. So it's not like, yeah, a huge financial thing. And is that kind of embarrassing to you that you dropped this?

Because like. Would you rather not know at all? Deodorant's not that embarrassing of a thing to drop, but it's still like kind of a personal thing. And so I just, I froze. And ever since then, I've thought to myself,

that woman came back to that sidewalk and saw that deodorant and thought that thing's ruined and I could have avoided it. And it haunts me. You know what we're going to do here at ghost runners incorporated. Yes. Is we're going to start, uh, you know,

a lot of companies these days are doing diversity training. Yes. You know what we're going to do here at Ghost Runners Incorporated? Yes. Is we're going to start, you know, a lot of companies these days are doing diversity training. Yes. You know, pronoun training. Okay. Here, we're going to initiate good guy training. Okay. I'm going to run you through a series of events. Okay.

You know, it's like anger management or something. Okay. Where you're going to have to prove that you know how to be a good guy. Okay. Okay. Okay. I don't know what some of them will be yet, but I think things like, um, it's not going on right now.

No, I think some of the, well, yeah, let me run you to a little mental test. Okay. A, this is like that boomer is like your wife wants you to do something. What do you do? Yeah. Like do it for her. Oh, okay. Oh, interesting.

Okay. You're one of those. This guy. Old school. school knows how to respect a lady um all right you are at arrowhead stadium go chiefs okay i'm just ready to answer okay i thought you were had like a point nope sorry arrowhead stadium and someone is walking and they drop their baby behind them. Okay.

But they're in a Raiders jersey. Uh-huh. What do you say? I said, how'd you find somebody to procreate with you wearing a Raiders jersey? You passed.

Yeah! Hold on! Uh-oh. Ooh, I think this tight beat means that it's going down with some random thoughts Yeah! Go, go podcast Go for a podcast That's fun, Brad, that's fun. Hey, everyone. Grande Boo just happened, but it hasn't happened for Brad and I as we're recording this. So you have to wait till Wednesday to hear all about it.

The live, in-person podcast recording. It's crazy to think that right now we're recording this man, grande boo. Oh, I'm sure it's going to be fun. We don't even know. We don't have the memories. Something unplanned, unexpectedly either great or hilariously bad happened, I think. Someone we weren't expecting got a nosebleed. Yeah.

It was me. Harrison was not prepared at all or Harrison was very prepared and brought the house down. There's no in-between. Yeah. Tymon tried his hand at roasting people and realized he should stick to singing. Or he takes our job. Yeah. Wow. That went really well for Timon. Timon's got the itch for it. Yeah. Do you remember the first time you got the itch for comedy? I do. For yourself or for me? For me.

Okay. When was it? Freshman year was like when I really, I did a, I think I maybe talked about this on the podcast. Sorry. But like I did a presentation and I impersonated the teacher who was kind of a boisterous, like fun guy. And I just pretended like I was him the whole time. And I brought the house down.

And I remember walking back, like laughing at the memory of other people laughing. And I just thought to myself, I really like that. I like whatever that was. I want to do that again. So I'm sure mine had to come from Canuck. That's where I was given all the opportunities to harness this and figure this out.

And it was like, man, middle schoolers love me. I wonder if people my age do. I wonder if I'm funny to them. There you go. That's where it scratched it. Speaking of the Raiders, I want to talk about the Bengals.

Bengals. Bengals. How do I say it versus how you're supposed to say it again? I say Bengals, right? I say Bangles. And it's more of an A, not an I. Yeah, probably depending on where you're from. Bangles.

What do you write with? Do you write with a pen or a pin? Pen. Do you eat eggs or eggs? I eat neither. Do you hate eggs or eggs? Eggs. Eggs. I hate eggs. I hate bangles.

Do you go get a trash bag or a trash bug? You got two options. Tomato. Bangles. Bangles. Bengals. I was golfing with some Bengals.

Blake, ghosty, reached out to me when I was in Cincinnati. I mean, this is like a month or two ago. Hey, we're coming through. You want to golf? I was like, dude, of course. I met him before. They were really fun. With him is his brother-in-law, Ethan, who I'd met before,

and Ethan's friend, Jake, who I apparently had met before but forgot. Sorry about that. Well, too late now. If we meet you at Grande Boom, we don't remember. Sorry. Sorry about that.

You say sorry or do you say sigh? I wrote him this. But they were awesome. I think we were at the turn or something, and we started talking about football, and two of the guys are really, Ethan and Jake listen to Ghostrunners all the time, and so I was like, well, this works out.

I was like, I don't know if you're up to date with last week's episode, but I just defended Joe Burrow. I'm kind of bringing that up, thinking they're like, yeah, you know what? Thank you. Thank you for defending Joe Burrow when Brad called him a dork or whatever.

It didn't really go that route necessarily. Then I'm explaining it to Blake and I'm telling him like, yeah, Brad and I were ranking things we just don't get. Brad chose Joe Burrow on his list and called him a dork and whatever. I was like, and I'm defending him. I was like, dude, Joe Burrow is like the

second best quarterback in the NFL. Dork though. And then they were kind of like, like, who do you think is the first? I was like, what? I mean,

I know from Kansas city, but I mean, yeah, yeah, yeah. I can't like, are you guys being serious? Like,

would you say Patrick Mahomes is the first? It's like, okay, I have to like stop everything where I can't even golf right now. Are you guys, are you being for real? Like, I mean,

I don't know. There's a lot of good talent, especially in the AFC. I was like, what? Get out of here. Five years, two I mean, I don't know. There's a lot of good talent, especially in the AFC. I was like, what? Get out of here. Five years, two MVPs, two Super Bowls. No one's done that except Tom Brady. He's going to be the greatest of all time. He may already arguably be up there. No one else has won more Super Bowls in the last five years. Obviously close. Yeah. Tom Brady has the stats, but Patrick Mahomes is amazing. Yeah. You see that clip on quarterback about Jimmy Johnson?

You're the best I've ever seen do it. If Jimmy Johnson's saying it, he's seen a lot of people do it. Won a lot of Super Bowls in the 80s, 90s, whatever that was. I couldn't get over it so much that I texted you guys. I was like, y'all, I am with these freaking Cincinnati Bandles fans, and

they are not convinced Patrick Mahomes is the best quarterback in the NFL. I was like, I don't know what to do. I was hopeless. And I really liked the guys. I was enjoying golfing. But I really did not know how to go on. Because I know you, kind of maybe the casual sports fan, Tymon, is probably thinking like, well,

these guys, Jacob, they live in Kansas City. They're drinking from the Kool-Aid. No. There are a million stats I could throw at you. Right now, without looking a thing up, that Mahomes is the best. Prove it to me. Great. Unparalleled.

He's been to the AFC Championship four straight years. Hosted every single one of them, too. Is it four or five? I think it's five. AFC, always freaking cool. Yeah. I assume. I assume. Tymon, his first year ever starting,

playing a full season, threw for 5,000 yards, 50 touchdowns. I don't know if anyone currently playing in the NFL right now has ever done that. Correct. Much less the first season they ever played football. Don't you wish that he didn't play that one game his rookie year because he would have been a rookie?

Shattered every rookie record ever. 100%. I think Peyton Manning might be the only person that's done that. Maybe Tom Brady and the rainy moss, but not 5,000 yards. I bet. Yeah. Oh no,

not even close. Yeah. Peyton Manning through so many interceptions when he is rookie year to my home. It's just, he he's the number one in like every statistical category and he's won super bowls. Yeah.

One of the guys there was like, I just don't know. I'm worried about my home's ankle. I was like the ankle from last season. He won the guys there was like, I just don't know. I'm worried about Mahomes' ankle. I was like, the ankle from last season? He won three playoff games at a Super Bowl on his ankle. There's a common misconception

that Mahomes is injury prone. And it's like, he's missed like, what, four games his entire career? Maybe, I don't even know. Over the course of

five, six years? Yeah. I'm like, I don't think he's, he's gotten hurt, but he's not really missed time because he's a tough baddie. Remind me, what didrow do his first season oh oh that's right for his ucla

yeah uh yeah we all see la dork herbert's a lame name yeah we did talk about that the podcast one time of like herbert you think a guy her's going to be a good quarterback? He's pretty good. He's pretty good. But he's not even in the same class as Mahomes. Not yet. Like statistically, take the emotion out of it.

Statistically, there's just nothing even close to him. And then put the emotion into it, and it's like I think Mahomes' weapons, obviously he has Travis Kelsey, who's incredible, first battle Hall of Famer, but like his wide receiver core is not even close to the bingles wide receiver that's what I was trying to hype them up I was like I'm jealous of y'all's receivers I was like if Kelsey goes down we're in trouble you guys if burrow goes down you guys still have a ton of weapons T Higgins is eight feet tall just throw it up to him yeah right like name like if you're out there right now name a

receiver for the chiefs you can't because you're not if you're not from Kansas City you don't know you would not know it not a lot of Chiefs receivers are going to get drafted to fantasy this year. Yet watch what Mahomes does this year with those guys. And then people are going to be like, well, they're really good. And it's like, are they? Or is it just Mahomes being really...

Blake, the guy I was talking about. Oh, yeah. We don't even need anyone else. We don't even need the mics on. Blake also was like, I think Lombard Jackson might be up there. And I was like, really? Is Blake blind? Not colorblind. I'll give him that.

But they come to find out later, I think he went to Louisville. I was like, that makes sense. I see why you think Lamar Jackson's the best. I have a buddy, shout out Chris Scholes, a big Mississippi State guy, so he loves Dak. But it's like, you don't think Dak is in the top

tier. I was talking to the Dude Perfect guys about Dak because they're all Cowboys guys. And Cody Jones looked me in the eyes. He goes, dude, Dak sucks. I am a diehard Cowboys fan, but we're never going to win big games with Dak Prescott. Like we're just so bummed to have him as our quarterback. And yeah, we could talk about football forever. I know everyone loves when we talk about

football, but like Dak is just an Alex Smith kind of like, he's not pretty good. He's not going to lose you the game. Like he's going to, he's going to, there was one game last year. He did.

He threw a pick six to lose the game. Okay. I guess the Jaguars, I was watching that game. Maybe, maybe, maybe he's not quite an Alex Smith,

but like we, we know what it's like to be like, we've seen flashes of greatness in our quarterback. He's pretty good. Yeah.

And we could do it if everything goes perfectly for us. And it never will. But guess what? You need Mahomes out there to really go the next step. So, yeah, I don't know. This whole calf strength thing is really

making it hard to hate on Joe Burrow too much. Because he's injured. We don't know how bad it is. Because I think I still hold true to like, Josh Allen's going to be the second best quarterback in the AFC, but now it's going to be like, well, Joe Burrow, Hurst Calfs, if he didn't Hurst Calf, he would have been a double too. It's like, okay. So I will say those guys were awesome.

I invited them all person. I was like, come to Kansas City. I'm not even for Grande, but just come whenever and hang out. Cause they're awesome. Jake, I really got to know, this is kind of funny. At one point we're out on the green. We're kind of waiting on other people. And I go, what do you do for work?

He kind of looks at me and he holds his ball up and he goes, for birdie. I go, okay. I go, what do you think I asked you? I thought you said, what's this putt for? And I said, no, what do you do for work? That's awesome. You do for birdie.

He's just really excited that he might get a birdie. Dude, I have a birdie putt. But he works for a home appliance shop. Would that be the word? Home appliance store. Manufacturer. Supplier. Okay.

Perhaps. Does he make them, deliver them, sell them? Sell them. Yeah. So confidently. Sell for sure, dude. Yeah. Sell, sell.

He sells them for sure. Yeah. He's a saleser. Saleser. And I think they do maintenance as well. Like an installation. For birdie. Okay. Going anywhere with that or just that's the fact?

No. So I was talking to him. I was like, dude, I got some... First of all, I love laundry. Let's talk. Let's talk washers, dryers, whatever. Also, i was like dude i i got some first of all i love laundry let's talk oh yeah let's talk washers dryers whatever right also i was like my uh wife's mom is it weird mother-in-law yeah well all of it's weird i'm still figuring out the terminology it's like my ex-girlfriend's now mom my mother-in-law uh ex-girlfriend i she just got a, uh, this all-in-one washer dryer. And, uh, he was like, Oh dude, he's like, those are working surprisingly well. We're all really impressed with it. And I was like, I think it's so awesome. And he was, he was all, I haven't

heard from Angie how it's doing, but dude, I want to give it, you don't need a dryer vent hookup. So you could put one anywhere as long as you have a water. I've heard that. I wonder how. So I'm all in. He said condensation dries it. And we're like, what? He's like, I'm not a scientist. I just sell them. It's a condensation. You heard of the water cycle? So like... Evaporation,

condensation. Aquifers come in and they do things. It's a reservoir. And then, yeah, you just... The delta. Runoff. Yeah. And then, yeah, you just, the Delta. Runoff. Yeah. So. Fills up the ocean.

You get it. Your clothes will be dry. He said they work really well flying off the shelves. And so I was like, dude, I should get one then. Let's sell the two I have in the old, gross, stingy basement and put it in Rachel's closet where we already have like a little water hookup. Oh, you do? I think we can run it.

It's right next to the toilet. Perfect. Yes. Perfect. Yes. Fun. How fun would it be to do laundry in your closet? I think you should. Oh, so fun. I've seen people do it.

So easy. Oh, yeah. And on the main floor? Yes, dude. Yeah, that's clutch. I would buy it and make sure you like it and it works really well before selling the other ones. That's a good point.

Yeah, just in case. I think mainly talk to Angie firsthand, see how she likes it. Um, yeah. He's like, did you press one button? Come back,

you know, two hours later or whatever. Clothes are all washed and dried. That is fun. Yeah. Now you can only do one load at a time kind of, but in a way, how often are you really like,

I mean, we have no children. Ideally you would love to do, yeah. Change one out, put, change one out, put the other one in, but like that doesn't really realistically happen that often. If it's in my closet, I'll do laundry every night. I'll never be behind on laundry. I, yes. Catherine, I'm very appreciative. She is the one that does the laundry. And so I never complained about the frequency, but if it were up to me, I would do it every single day.

Right. Just to always stay on top of it and be like, just part of the routine. It's like having your computer charge. It feels good. It does. I feel strong that way. It does. Um, yeah, I found that out probably the 11th hole. Then the next, like, you know, six, all we did was just talk appliances and I loved it. And everyone thought I was joking around. I was like, no, I'm serious. I want to get one. He was like, dude, I will make sure it gets delivered to your house from Cincinnati. Cool. Fun. Thanks, dude. Yeah, you're like, once you get married, once you grow up, appliances are so fun.

They're like the new video game consoles. Yeah. It's like, I want to talk about appliances. I almost got scammed earlier this week. Ah, travel deodorant? Nope, not travel deodorant. Good. Maria, I've been posting some things.

I told you I emptied out the storage unit last week. Nope, not travel deodorant. Good. Maria, I've been posting some things. I told you I emptied out the storage unit last week, so I have been selling a few things that I have from that. I was trying to sell this tabletop, a really cool thing. Been seeing a lot of that on Facebook. Have you? Yeah. Good.

Like it next time. All right. Show me you've seen it. Show me you've seen it. Now you've seen one. Now you've seen one. Hey, now you've seen one, kid. Oh, man. Oh, no. Okay. I was like, they removed

all their messages. No, they didn't. They just said, is this available? I said, yes, it is. Blah, blah, blah. They asked for my phone number, which I gave them. No problem. You want to text instead of whatever? And then they said something along the lines of, well, can you change the price? I said, no, this is how much it is.

They're like, okay, great. I'm ready to pick it up today. What's your address? And I got a little leery because this person's name is Maria, M-A-R-I-Y-A. No Facebook profile picture. I would say Mariah. Mariah, maybe. No Facebook profile picture.

Joined Facebook in 2023. That's recent. No other profile to be known. And so I thought to myself, I'm not giving this person my address just in case. Good. So I said, let's meet at the quick trip by my house. Gave him that, gave him the Google maps, a link to it, not even an address, just in case. Um, I said, let me know when you'd like to meet. And they said something, they deleted it, but I, I responded, ha ha, what checking scam? Maybe they said something, they deleted it, but I responded, haha, what? Checking scam? Maybe they said like, send me the code. I think it was like, send me the code that you get on your phone. I

want to make sure you're not scamming me with your phone number. And I was like, what? And they're like, well, would you like this? Yes or no? And I said, I'm not sure what you're asking. Check your phone inbox messages. Just text me those six digits. And they sent me something that said, Google voice, here is your confirmation code, blah, blah, blah. And I just responded, LOL, you're a joke. Oh, what did you say to them? I said, LOL, you're a joke. Nice try reporting you for attempting to scam. Got them. I wonder what the scam is. Did you look it up afterwards? I did. I looked up Google voice scam and it was something like if they get enough of your information, they can steal your identity through Google or something like that. And you get your number, then they get

your address and they get your tabletop, so to speak. And they said, actually a lot of scammers in here, the number is checking for scammers and proving the real posts. And I, I wanted to be, I was, I was kind of frustrated cause I was like, I'm going to get some money for these tables and I didn't end up getting them. And so I was really tempted to be really mean, but I tried to be very directly, make them feel bad in a kind way. I love this. So here's what I responded.

I love this approach. You're a joke. Yeah, I know. First of all, hey, man, you're a joke, okay? You're a joke. Look at yourself in the mirror. Do you see yourself? Ha ha, joke.

I said these things because they said, there's a lot of scammers here, blah, blah, blah. I said, thanks for looking out for me and not trying to scam me and rob me of my identity. I've reported you all for your great behavior. That was my sarcastic way. And then I was like, I need to love like Jesus a little more. Nope, never mind. I don't know.

I shouldn't say that because I just also said, really fun life you have trying to scam other people. You should reevaluate your decisions and get a job that makes you feel good at the end of the day. Oh, that's nice. I think that's like, to me, if I were scamming people all day, you need that. And somebody says that to me, I would at least take it to heart. Yeah. And then I said, one more thing. Do you understand what you're doing is that what you're doing is wrong and you'd be much happier in life doing something that's good. That's good. That's nice. No responses. Maybe I'm a joke.

Yeah. Oh gosh. Am I a joke being a joke? And so anyway, just, uh, that's all I said, but I was just like, I wanted to, I wanted to like go in on this person. Like, this is so frustrating. Like what, what's your life. And I kind of did that, but in just like a, Hey, just think about doing something more fulfilling. I bet you're not getting paid that much more to do this than another job that would- That is legal. Yeah. And not scamming people out of very inconvenient things. And I'm like pretty privy.

I'm a privy guy. One of the priviest I've seen. I won a privy pageant one time. I'm pretty privy to this kind of stuff. And I still almost like gave him my address because I was like, yeah, I'll meet up with you. I know what people love to joke. Like, oh, how'd Brad end up with Catherine? They don't see the priviness that I see.

No, they don't. They're like, do you even see for a second how privy Brad is? This guy's a prevator. Yeah. Are you saying predator? No, I'm privy. I'm a privator.

Trust me, he's privy. The guy might not seem so, but... Total privo. Yeah. Priv ball. Total priv ball. That's a new Twitter bio. Nickelback lover, vegan, total priv ball. Priv ball. Because I'm privy. Anyway, just didn't love that. I have something to say about all that, but not after I talk to you about... Yeah! Huh.

Yeah! How! My voice is hurting, but Brad's is not. So you get a little best of both worlds there. I'm running on fumes, and that helped it. Did it? Yeah. So you get a little best of both worlds. No, I'm running on fumes and that helped it. Did it? Yeah. Fire you up a little bit. A little bit. I don't even know why I pull up my notes on Good Ranchers. I know what I have

You don't have to. Oh, man. You were talking about being kind of like direct, but make them feel bad a little bit. I just want to be kind, but also like, hey, not that kind. I want to be honest. I want to be like, you know, make them feel bad a little bit. I just want to be, like, kind, but also, like, hey, not that kind. I want to be, like, honest. I want to be, like, you could be better. Whoever you are, whatever country you're in, you could be better than this, Mariah.

So, yeah, go ahead. Yeah. I shared this with you a little bit yesterday. I wasn't going to say I plan on talking about the podcast, but a very large organization within Pickball reached out to me and they wanted to work with me so i was like oh fun yeah let's do it and then someone else got involved in the email thread i'm not gonna say her name but brad hates the name i don't know if i hate it i just think it's interesting it's like it's like okay it's the vibe of being annoying it's probably because her name is this what is the name What would be the equivalent to her name?

I want to dox her in case somehow this gets back to her. I almost just said her name. It'd be like, Hevden. Is that too close? That's so close. People are going to think her name's Heather. Her name's not Heather, okay? That's not that close.

It's like not when it's Tymon's name. It'd be like saying, Trymon. No, it is not that close. It's like not when it's like Tymon's name. It'd be like saying Trymon. No, it is not that close. Do you remember her name? It's not that close to her name. What'd you say? Hevden? Yeah, I'd be like, her name is Hevden.

I'd be like, that's out of time. Write down five guesses you have for this girl's name. There's no way Tymon's going to get it. This girl's name, we've never heard of before. It's like a brand new name. All right, Tyma, we'll let you work on that. I'm getting one. I'll keep...

What's the one you got? Dang it! Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom! We got to mute that. We got to mute that. Yeah, yeah, bleep that out. I mean, I don't know. I can't think of five options, but there's an obvious first one. Is that a common name? I've heard it.

Really? Yeah, I know, there's a nice girl that I know that's named. I'm gonna go bleep it again. Shoot! That'd be funny if it's bleeped twice. No, yeah, yeah, yeah. I know tons of s***. Oh, no. I'm going to try to say s***.

I'm going to say s***. Oh, my gosh. This episode's getting crazy. I totally did not mean to say it again. That's so funny. No, I'm just kidding. Anyway, jeez. Well, nothing I'm going to say is is gonna be better or funnier than that basically this girl gets involved and is all of a sudden like pump the brakes whoa whoa i don't

know if we should be doing this um you know you guys don't really have the following that i think you should have to be doing this and she said all that i didn't hear you say that yeah so oh it's just like well no wonder well i, you guys reached out to us, and I'm being so polite. Like, my initial email before HD got in the mix was... Don't want to send. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Was...

Like, before she got in the mix, I was just like, oh, this is so fun. Like, we would love to add value to you guys in any way. Let us know what you're interested in. I could do this. I could do this. I could do this. I mean, just one of the better emails I've ever sent.

And then she comes in. It's like, no, I don't really know if you should be doing all this, whatever. And just like, okay, well,

why don't you just let us know what we can do? And it's like, well, I'll tell you another thing you can't do is this, this, this, this, this,

this, it's like, this is, I mean, the worst email chain I've ever been a part of. Like, did I go on a date with you at some time? Like,

do you have a personal vendetta against me? What is going on? Yeah, do you not, like, yeah, did Pickleball somehow, were you a part of this organization? And then, oh, was I supposed to be Pickleball? Yeah, no, Pickleball's good. Yeah, yeah, I said Pickleball. Just bleep the whole story out.

Oh, man. But yeah, so I've just tried to be so nice. And like, I don't want to respond right away, because that's the issue. It's like, she said something, oh, be so nice. And like, I don't want to respond right away because that's the issue. It's like, she's going to be something I'm like, oh, my thumbs get typing. Okay, well, we've reached 6 million people in the last three days.

Is this something you'd like to be a part? Okay, probably shouldn't say that. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You know, okay, how do I nicify this? Okay, here you go. Hey, hey, good guy school. Good guy school, yeah, yeah. The pupil becomes the teacher.

You say, you do, you approach it with humility. You're like, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to overstep my bounds here. I was under the understanding of this, this, and this. I do think, and then just, but also have some pride for yourself and be like, I do think that we have some legs to stand on. We've had over 6 million views in the last, you know, three videos that we post or something like that. That shows to me like, okay, you're not some jerk that's just like,

listen here, Hefden. You know, blah, blah, blah. But at the same time, you're not going to be like, okay, yeah, we won't do anything with you because we're not worthy of this. It's like, well, I think we have at least some ground to stand on, to dig with. Yeah, I can't wait to time and guess the name. I 100% can.

I thought you were going to say some other guttural name, but a real name, not Hevden. No one's ever heard of that. I thought it was great. I thought it matched the vibe because it's a real name, not Hevden. No one's ever heard of that. I thought it was great. I thought it matched the vibe because it's a weird name. If you're listening and want to comment on YouTube, your guess, I guarantee you 17 people or more will guess this name.

Dang it. Well, maybe this is the revenge she gets. That's right. Getting doxxed unintentionally. You're rude to me in an email. Thousands of people listening. Oh, man. Anyway, so That's right. Getting doxxed unintentionally. You're rude to me in an email. Thousands of people. Oh, man. Anyway, so there's that.

I've had some random, like, frustrations with a lot of strangers and stuff lately. Just yesterday, I was turning onto your street from the main street down here. I hear you. We'll call it, yeah. We'll call it... No, I'm just kidding. And this woman had her left turn signal on. And so I was, I thought she was going to turn. I was

going to turn. We're going to do the little thing. And instead she like went past me and like honked her horn and like did this thing. And I just, just very justifiably just, I was just like, you have your turn signal on. Like I was like saying theifiably just I was just like you have your turn signal on like I was like saying the whole conversation I was like no no you do not get mad at me you had your turn signal on you have your turn signal on right there and she was just like you know just like putting her arms up and it was one of those like I just have so much righteous anger at this woman right now righteous anger oh just like no it's your fault your turn signal I you're and to be fair she was going to turn at the next street, which was like right.

Oh, premature turn sig. And so it's like, okay, do you wait until the very last minute to put on your turn signal? But like she was getting really frustrated, at least to see my side, lady. Hey. Well, I saw her side eventually, but I was livid. And what was her name? Don't say her actual name, but something close to it. It was something like Drether.

Habitha. Yeah. Oh my gosh. Timon, think of five names. I can only think of one. Right off the bat. There's one obvious one. I don't know.

Golly. All right. Not great at that. Just say it in real name next time you know alright alright next time next time

real quick also from the Cincinnati area where'd it go I forgot which city yeah it was Cincinnati specifically actually there were so many ghosties I mean in all the cities

Her and her sister both came to the show. She's been an F12 loyal, yeah, just fan and supporter of us. And so it was good to see her in person. And she got me a, I guess, us, Brad. I don't know. It's labeled to me. No, that's okay. Mine is ours.

Well, you're going to want to share this because it's an ice cream place that's only in cincinnati yay i mean maybe it's in other places i don't know you ever heard of graders timing ever seen this logo greater so i should have opened this before i got to the podcast studio and while i was still in cincinnati but hey now we got to go back see swick yeah see jensen it's a quick drive easy drive and we have an ice cream gift card. So thank you, Sarah. But also in her note to us, she wrote down future s'mores ideas. So let's just store these away. I have a document.

I'm going to write it down. Go. Should we put it in the document? Yep. Best sports moments in history. Oh, my gosh. I love that one. Quick off the top.

Jordan's over Brian Russell. Oh, that's one, too, that I could barely remember, too. So that's extra special. I was watching that game. First thing I thought of, Carl Lewis winning that race in front of Hitler. Whoa. I don't even know.

I know Carl Lewis winning, but I didn't know it was in front of Hitler. Honestly, I may not have the facts right. That sounds cool. But I think that was a cool one. Carl Lewis, that old? Jesse Owens. Thank you. Jesse Owens. I you. Jesse Owens.

I thought it was like the 70s or something. That's embarrassing. No, it's not. It's the best moment that you can think of. Yeah, off the top. Yeah, Jesse Owens winning the race in front of Hitler. If it happened, Babe Ruth calling a shot. If it happened.

What else would you throw in there? Just Patrick Mahomes, the last five years. I mean, what about like... Oh, the... What's the Dodgers guy when he's celebrating like this? I don't believe what I just saw. Yeah, that was pretty sweet. Yeah, Kirk Gibson. Yeah, that's his name.

Like limping around. What about like, I don't know if this is, this is an honorable mention. The Michael Phelps when he came back and like won by like. Oh, fingernail? Yeah. Yes. It's crazy. I remember like, just i feel like

i was glued everyone was glued to the olympics when michael that year 2008 olympics the redeemed team mainly michael phelps too uh-huh you know two years earlier let's throw in apollo antonono in there it's a good time for the olympics sure i would throw in you know that clip of uh i'm gonna get a lot of these names and kind of facts run to marlin's player who passed away probably like 10 years ago or so and then the guy yeah and then the the next game after he passed away their lead off batter who i think went all season without a home run leads off the game with a home run yeah it was so cool yeah that like highlight is crazy yeah anything like that fun sports moment those are fun okay fun best supposed supposed okay best Thanksgiving foods

I have that one on my list fun I think most iconic slash memorable Halloween costumes okay best Christmas songs

oh have we done that one no I don't think so best things about summer Rachel would love that one highlights of being married timing see what you got.

And then most awkward places to have the giggles. Oh, fun. Thanks, Sarah Sassen. All right, I wrote them all down. Have the giggles. I had a buddy of mine, he's actually my best man at my wedding, Casey. He, anytime he was embarrassed, he would laugh.

Oh, really? And it was, it's bad. Like, it's like, you know, because he said one thing, he's like, I shouldn't have said that. And then he laughs in the person's face, and he's like, ah, this is bad. I shouldn't do this. One thing I am not embarrassed to talk about is

Underrated, overrated. Okay. Just a few here. I got AI, Tymon. It stands for artificial intelligence. It's kind of, I feel like it's definitely taken like a huge, you know, wave kind of thing. It was like a big deal. And then all of a sudden, I feel like people aren't talking about it as extremely as they were yeah but people still seem to be very

about it ai underrated overrated aptly rated may i go first yes underrated okay it's i think there's just too much that's going to happen with it it's not talked about okay i'm not saying i have a lot of specifics that i would like specifically say, but I think it's under recognized. Yeah. Are you a little bit? It is very recognized, but it's like, yeah,

I don't know. I kind of have a hard time wrapping my mind completely around it, but I get scared of it a little bit. Are you a little intimidated? I think people might be under estimating how scary it can be. Right. Yeah. Yeah.

I don't know exactly. I think to me it already feels like the internet is a place where people can spout lies and like make up stuff and it's hard to defend it it's like i didn't say that and then all of a sudden when you like put in like videos and photos and all this stuff of like you know that looks very real that's when it gets really scary to me yeah so and And like manipulating videos and stuff, which is so much easier with AI. Yeah. Yeah.

What do you think, Jacob? I'm trying to decide. I think in a sense it is underrated from... Yeah, I think AI is underrated when it comes to what the future of journalism and media is going to look like. Like we will not be able to trust anything five to 10 years from now because everything could be doctored and faked and, you know, deep faked.

But in another sense, I do think it's overrated because we're still humans at our core and our, like our biology isn't changing and what we want and what we desire when it comes to interaction, when it comes to education and relationships aren't going to change. So it's never going to take over our life as much as some people might want you to think it is. Interesting. Yeah. I don't know. I just think it's just scary. Yeah. Like the, the, the news aspect of it, but then it's like, I can only trust you if I'm in the same room as you almost. Yeah. We're going to go back to that caveman style, spreading news via word of mouth, which could be nice to like all of it. No, this isn't true, but I was going to say like, is it going to make social media obsolete or like social media news obsolete? And then all of a

sudden we're not relying on our phones all the time to look at news. And it's like, we only trust. I only trust true social. Yeah. Because there's no AI there. True social and parlor. Those are the ones i'm on i'm a parlor guy only yeah privy to parlor yeah um i don't know it okay uh okay changing it up i don't know enough about this to even really have an opinion uh air fryers people love their air fryers uh they make food in it overratedrated, underrated, aptly rated. Do you guys have one, Tymon? No.

Great. You guys have one? Rachel has it. Loves it. Okay. Tell me more about what she makes. Yeah. I don't have a position to come from on this.

Take it away. Did we talk about this with you guys before? Like the main air fryer company like went out of business because so many people bought them in 2020 and then it's just not a thing you need to buy more of so kind of like well everyone who needed one or one and one already got one so they just like lost a ton of money the last two years and just went under isn't that crazy they're like you know one of the products of 2020 probably wow that and sanitizer like successful in that year yeah i guess so it's just not you know it's like selling mattresses or something it's just like well but then again so. It's like selling mattresses or something. It's just like, well.

But then again, so many appliances are like that. You buy a KitchenAid mixer, you don't need another KitchenAid mixer. That's a great word. I read one article. Diversify from air fryers, I guess. Yeah, maybe they just couldn't. Yeah. I don't know. But either way, bummer for them. Bummer for them. And they're great. I mean, they're probably underrated for those people who have never used one or utilized it. Just like the cleanup is so much easier and quicker than traditional, whatever you're cooking. And it's pretty fast and you still get, uh, some crispiness where you're getting, it's like the speed of a microwave, but the crispiness of like something that would be cooked in the oven, the speed of a microwave, it can go that fast, you know, equivalent to it.

Yeah. I mean, you can make stuff. Yeah. Yeah. Pretty quick. Yeah. So, okay. You put in good ranchers chicken in there, like little cubes of it. What comes out? Like, does there, there's not, I genuinely don't understand. Like there's no breading or anything, right? How is that? Like, how does it get crispier? Uh, so like we don't make chicken in there or maybe Rachel does, but like salmon is like great. Like kind of like really fries it up. It just kind of like gets the skin hotter than the rest of it. Yeah. It like heats it all up, cooks it. And it's got a little crispiness to it. People are always telling me to do pizza rolls with it. I, I like my pizza rolls a certain way. The oven is, is doing a great job. It ain't broke. Don't fix it. Yeah. Okay. Okay. So

aptly rated, but for me, yeah, aptly, I know it does a good job. There's still a little bit of cleanup. I've always kind of been tempted to get one, but our kitchen is not huge, and Catherine's like, it takes up a lot of kitchen space. I don't think we need one. Okay, Kath. I guess that means my family stance is officially overrated. Okay. Family stance.

Without ever using one or knowing anything about it. You mentioned this last week, Jake, for the Cleveland? I don't remember one of indianapolis roundabouts was it indianapolis yeah it was indianapolis carmel or carmel indianapolis okay um underrated or overrated i don't know how to rate them i like them i'll say that yeah i like roundabouts yeah how are they rated though what do you think i think they're 100 underrated yeah i like them i would love if we took away every stop sign in america and had roundabouts. Yeah. How are they rated though? What do you think? I think they're a hundred percent underrated. Yeah. I like them. I would love if we took away every stop sign in America and had roundabouts. Every time you're at a four-way stop, think to yourself, would I have

rather just kept going? That's what a roundabout can do for you. Yes. Yeah. My dad, we got like three or four of them in Olathe probably when I was 12 years old. And I genuinely, my dad would say roundabouts, best thing to happen to Olathe. Like every time we used it, it was like almost like a joke, like roundabouts, best thing to happen to Olathe because all of a sudden, yeah, these four way stops turned into like, yeah, you just keep going and they're awesome. I think they're very underrated. You like them, Tymon? Yeah, I do. I think they've never failed to make me like sometimes just ever so slightly nervous. I've never quite, I've never felt fully confident in my ability to like, do I understand how this

thing works? Some of the two lane ones. Sometimes I'm like, who am I? Like, who exactly am I looking out for? Like, and yeah, when they have multiple lanes, it gets a little confusing. But they're like really, for like as far as speed and efficiency, they're so much better

than like a four-way stop. That's probably why they're not like literally every single stoplight and everything is because they're so much better than a four-way stop. That's probably why they're not literally every single stoplight and everything is because they're more dangerous, right? Or they're more expensive. They got any more dangerous. I bet $10 million are more dangerous than a four-way stop. I would bet that as well. Oh, okay. I thought you were going to take me up on it.

No. There was a roundabout on our honeymoon in the Bahamas. To get from the pro shop of the golf course to the 12th hole, which you have started the 12th hole because all the holes are flooded. Yeah. You have to go out on the road. And so the first day we golfed, we had a guy kind of show us the way,

didn't think much of it, just kind of followed him. And then the next day, it's just Rachel and I. So first of all, I'm having to like, remember, how do we get here again? And then having to go out on the road. The first day too, there was no on the road. It's like, well, that's kind of nice. You know, I'm having to like, remember how do we get here again? And then it happened to go out on the road. The first day too, there was no on the road. It's like, well,

that's kind of nice. You know, I'm, I'm just a little golf cart, but no one's really out here. The next day timed it up to where there are so many cars, including a school bus is behind me. And I have to go across a roundabout driving the opposite direction of what

I used to drive on the left side of the road and doing a roundabout in like busy traffic. And I'm at a golf cart. No way. And it was, yeah, that was a little stressful. Just like everything I know about right of way, right left of way. Yeah. You know, it's all opposite. Uh, in London, they literally have like on the sidewalk, like crosswalks, they'll say, look this way and look that way. Oh, that's nice for like tourists probably that are American. Don't know any better, but they don't have those bomb Bahamian

roundabouts. No, not a great Exuma fire fest. You have anything else to say about roundabouts? I don't think so. Great. Um, drone shows overrated. Oh, those are sweet. Those are sweet. I've never seen one. I've seen a lot of videos. I, uh, went and saw one at the Royals game last year and it was awesome. Yeah. Put me down for underrated yeah dude perfect had it as part of their show oh that was sweet yeah indoors that's wow drone shows are awesome yeah it's like it's like fireworks type show yeah it is but yeah i would say from what i've seen compared to fireworks i think 75 of the fireworks experience for me is the noise. I just love the deep fireworks sound.

So if we're comparing them to fireworks, from what I can tell, I wouldn't like them as much. But on their own, from what I've seen, aptly rated, underrated, I don't know. I'd love to see one. Yeah. I mean, I'll say on the other side of that, when you have little kids that don't love the sound of fireworks, I think that my kids would love drone shows a lot, and they do not like the fireworks. They kind of remind me of like a marching band,

like they're slowly taking the shape of something. Yeah, exactly. You know, like on a football field. It's like, what's it going to be? What's it going to be? Oh, they're doing a trick shot. Dudes. That's pretty cool.

I bet the Dude Perfect one was awesome. Yeah, that was really sweet. And some of the dudes were operating the drones probably. And they were duding Dudes. That's pretty cool. I bet the Dude Perfect one was awesome. Yeah, that was really sweet. And some of the dudes were operating the drones probably. And they were duding it up. They were duding. Okay, just a few more. Barbie. Oh, no, I was kidding.

Twilight is getting a TV revival. I don't know what that means. I wrote it down a while back. Maybe there's a TV show coming about Twilight. I mean, revival is always good, right? Yeah. Billy Graham, he's big on it. I think it's the exact same thing as the Billy Graham Crusades,

but just with Bella and Jacob and Edward. And another guy. Overrated. Twilight's overrated, right? It's got to be. I saw one of the movies when i was dating a girl in high school that wanted to watch it didn't watch much of the movie because it sucked just kidding that's pretty funny it's crazy how like profitable marketable whatever you want to

say uh vampires are i mean i feel like people made a lot of money off vampires vampires in general overrated underrated overrated, underrated. Overrated? I don't understand it. Yeah. What's that? I mean, there's a band about vampires. There's a show about vampires. Vampire Weekend's not about vampires. Olivia, remember you guys had a new song called Vampire? Yes, she does. True Bloods or whatever?

Oh yeah, the Vampire Diaries. That's what I'm thinking of. Okay. What's the band? Vampire Weekend, but that's not like a... Still. Vampiric in its nature. What's with the vampire? I'm thinking of. Okay. What's the band? Vampire Weekend, but that's not like a... Still. Vampiric in its nature. Yeah, yeah. What's with the vampire? I don't know.

Only vampire like Count Chocula. Count Choculitis. That's the only one I can think of. Yeah. There's a new... Yeah, there's still a thing though. It's like not just like there's a new movie I saw a preview for like going to see Sound of Freedom.

It's like about this like... I think it's Dracula or something just like on a ship. Yeah. It's like I don't get the hype. Yes, that's a good like whatever that s'mores was about. We call them Barbies. Like things that we don't get that everyone else likes.

Put them all in the same category. Zombies, vampires. Zombies. Yeah, what? Ah, okay. You zombie guy. Not a zombie guy, but I kind of get it. Rob Zombie. You're. What? Uh, okay. You zombie guy, not a zombie guy, but I kind of get Rob zombie. You're into it. Uh, not a Rob zombie guy. Um, walking dead, uh, not a walking dead guy. Um, kind of a walking dead guy for a little bit. My dad and I got into that, like for like the six months I was home before I got married, we watched some Walking Dead.

I kind of like zombies is still like within the realm of, I was about to say possibility. That's not true. But like, it's like real life with zombies happening. Like it's like, I think zombies might be kind of a thing. Like,

you know, like voodoo stuff. I'm, I don't know. I think, I think zombies. What do you mean? It might be kind of a thing. Like voodoo stuff. I don't know. I think zombies are kind of real. It might be kind of a thing. I'm pretty sure. I think that zombies actually exist.

Depending on how close they are to whatever they are in shows. You think they exist? But I think like... Whoa, whoa, whoa. Hey, I'm thinking like countries that practice voodoo and stuff. I think they can make something similar happen. I mean, it's interesting. I think it's... I don't know enough to... Pretty dark stuff, I think they can make something similar happen. Interesting.

I think it's... I don't know enough to... Pretty dark stuff. I don't know. Do zombies exist? All I'm saying is The Walking Dead was a cool idea because it was like, what would I do in that situation? How would I defend myself against all these zombies?

I don't like Googling voodoo stuff. It's scary. Tymon does, so... Tymon, you would love Haiti. That's what I was thinking. I was thinking Haiti. Have you been down there? No, I haven't, but I've heard stuff.

Yeah, we went down there, and there's a spiritual battle going on in Haiti big time. Didn't see any zombos, but still. Yeah, I don't know. I don't know enough about that stuff, but voodoo. No, I'm just kidding. Not much of a voodoo guy I like zombie

I like the idea of being able to mow down some zombies it doesn't hit the same if it's vampires I don't want to mow them down I just want to avoid them I don't get the vamps especially when there were love interests

for all these girls in high school what was that little kink? Why did that exist for a little bit? I don't know. One of his fangs. It was the same people that liked Orlando Bloom and Lord of the Rings. The Elfish years? Yeah.

It's like something about this world that they sang into. Slightly manipulated. All right. I got a few more here. Grande Boo, overrated, underrated, upperrated? Underrated. Severely underrated. Severely underrated. Severely underrated. If we do it again someday, who knows? I mean, it was awesome.

It was awesome. It was so great. I'm still tired from it. Yeah, that's about it. I wrote down microphones. You guys want to talk if microphones are overrated, underrated? Microphones. Let me hit you with one. John Kander, overrated, underrated. Oh my gosh, underrated. Really? How so?

Just people don't... I don't know if I agree. Convince me. Ah! Okay. It's the best quality leather goods that you can buy. Okay. I'm coming around on it. I don't think that I realize that there are different

types of leather for different applications. And I learned that through John Kander and I learned, and I've been enjoying the shoes that I've been wearing from John Kander that are specifically leather shoes for shoe wearing.

Okay. Let's do a few of those. Yeah, let's do it. Jake. All right. And then we can be done because we're both very tired. Okay. Loopy.

I need to actually find some now. All right. In the meantime, I wrote down in my notes, I ate a whole apple. Core? The whole apple. Oh. I spit out the seeds and I spit out the stem. That was it. I'd always heard a legend that my grandpa,

Giorgio Baxter, did it. I was like, how does he do that? I did it. What's the core taste like? Not as bad as you think. It's a little bit like, like harder, hard apple. Yeah. Hard apple cider. Yeah. But once you get that stem out of there, you can go for it. And I'm, I'm kind of, it's kind of a man's move now. And I kind of like it. That's pretty funny. Yeah. Just get it down and just keep eating. Yeah. I kind of, you kind of get it to like the nub, and then you take out the stem, and I just went on top and on bottom.

The seeds kind of dangled out and threw those out and then went right for the middle. Planted an apple seed that day. Yeah. That's fun. Thanks. Go ahead, Tymon. All right.

Do you have any tips on learning to drive? This is from May Williams. Ooh. Did you learn better with your mom or your dad growing up? I don't think one comes to mind. My mom was way better. Really? No offense, Dad.

My dad was so nervous. You could just tell the whole time. He was not comfortable with me in the car. And my mom did a lot better job of teaching me the ropes and being patient, I think. My dad was much more defensive and like being patient. I think my dad was much more like defensive and like, watch out for this person. So my mom also taught me how to break pretty smoothly. Um, so I guess my tip is go with Brad's mom, hire my mom. I would say learn out in

the country because driving felt easy, but I think it's cause we were just, there was no one else there. It was not stressful. Obviously, then when I worked my way up, it was time to go on the highway and merge. Did you do the whole were you driving a farmer's license at 12 years old or anything like that? No, I wasn't doing all that. Did you have friends that did? Not really, no. I don't think

we had that, not in Stratford. Stay off your phone and go drive around the country. Those are my tips. Go ahead. I was just going to say the same question yeah stay off your phone and go drive out in the country those are my tips I think oh go ahead no go ahead no I don't know go ahead I was just going to say the same

in the same question said PS do you know the best website to buy a custom handmade high quality table from someone who cares about their customers yes I do

the same person that recommends his mom for driving school it's alicecustomercreations.com please check it out we have plenty of octagonal tables that you cannot scam us on

we'll give you a good deal. Good luck, Google Voice. Yeah, I don't have any great tips. The one little tip that I remember my mom giving me is when you're slowing down, you're kind of coming to that slow, like complete stop, and then ease up on the brake, and then push down on the brake again.

You won't even feel like the throwback. It's like a accordion. Yes, it's called the accordion brake. Yep. A-B.. It's like a accordion. Yes. She called the accordion break. Yep. A B. Yep. The ABS accordion break system. Nice.

So solid pun. Um, I remember the first time I was on the highway and somebody was calling me on my phone while I was driving and it was the most stressful thing I could ever do to answer. It was my sister. She was calling me and I was like, hi,

I'm on, I'm on the highway. What are you, what's up? It was like so hard for me to even like look down at my phone to grab it. You know, I remember not realizing that you only drive with one foot until I started driving. And my mom or dad was like, no, just don't like use your left leg to break. Cause then you're going to be using accelerator and break at the same time. Also the blind spots real. I, blind spot's real. I was driving. I went to go get pizza one time with my sister. And we were driving. I thought, this is so great. And I almost just

went right into another person. And she's like, you got to check your blind spot. I was like, I've heard that phrase before. Okay. My dad grew up selling semi-trailers. I saw the way he treated semi-trailers while driving. As soon as I started driving, I felt like I was very

courteous and cautious to semi-trailers. Like, look how big of a vehicle they have to drive. Let them in. Flash your lights at them if it's clear for them to merge in, switch lanes, whatever. Yeah. We were driving home yesterday and the semi had to throw on the

intense brakes. Jake brakes. Yeah. I don't know if that's what those are, but I know it's a thing. It was wild. Yeah. Then he almost got in our lane and we had to swerve a little bit. We missed him. We see that. I think he's coming. So fun question. Cool. Next question from Rachel. Oh, Jake. Wait, it's his wife's name. It's ex-girlfriend's name. What is the best way to tell someone they have food in their teeth or do you not tell them? Oh, I always tell them. I don't care if it's the President of the United States.

How do you do it? Hey, you have something like in your top, just top middle right here. Okay. What if it's us three plus Catherine, Rachel, and Tymon's parents? How would you do it to Mrs. Impsh? Hmm. So do you always do it? Yeah, I would.

She's not the president yet i think it would wait till like i am standing next to her sitting next to her and then you just like hey you got a little something in your teeth you would i think so people love knowing when they have something in their teeth oh yeah they do they do i i think i'm batting a thousand telling people like oh my gosh thank you that's what they say every time yeah okay it's like there's a level of embarrassment but also it's like oh so over like it's so much more gosh, thank you. That's what they say every time. It's like there's a level of embarrassment, but also it's like, oh, so over, like it's so much more just like, thank you so much. I'm glad you told me.

Yeah. Good. Yeah, I think that's a good answer. I don't do it enough besides Catherine. And even then I feel bad about it. I'm like, it's not that big of a deal to me, but you're going to want to know kind of thing. I'll tell you what happens a lot

because I do this to people all the time. It's like, I always try to mirror them. If it's on, I'm looking at them, it's on their left. So I will go on my left. So all they have to do is like mirror exactly what I'm doing. Nope. Then they go to their left. There's no universal, like my dad's a you're on your right. He's on his right. I'm a mirror guy. There's just no universal code for that. Let's change that. We're, we're mirror boys hey yeah um let me think what the words are okay you've got food and i want you to mirror oh my emotions when i tell you it's that it's a michael jackson cover of Man in the Mirror. Yeah, I like it. Us being mirror boys. Mirror mortals.

Nice. Yeah. Okay. One more? Your turn with Justin Timberlake mirrors. It's like you're my mirror. Whoa. My mirror for your food and your teeth.

Whoa. Yeah, that was good. Couldn't get any clearer. Oh. If you were really looking at your teeth. Oh. Yeah, that was good. Couldn't get any clearer. Oh. If you were really looking at your teeth. Oh. I can't go that high. No, that's it.

All right, last question from Malcolm. He says, I am 16, and I do not want to be in a, quote, more than friends relationship. So what are some good, still just as witty, reverse pickup lines? He said, I need something funny and self-deprecating wait this is like a rejection line no basically reverse pickup line like i guess i don't go out with me or is it like he says you're letting me not want to be in a relationship

so i don't think he's in one he just needs a reverse pickup line. As in like, if I say something, they won't want to take me. More like self-deprecating jokes, I guess. Like, oh, style of reverse pickup. Even if you told me I couldn't get that food out of my teeth. Oh,

you're not going to want to kiss me back there? Get a little close to the bread behind my ears. Yeah. I call the area behind my ears, the bread factory. And, yeah. We're not going near that.

What else is a reverse pickup line? interesting question yeah you go up to a girl approach her and you say something rude about yourself or just like yeah like uh i'm not very nice to my mom like i don't think a girl's gonna be like please date me you know texting yeah obviously um no i'm not gonna ask for your number you know driving yeah i text drive all the time right yeah it's a problem and i'm not good at it i'm not even good at texting by myself no a lot of typos you know those semis i get right in front of i just merge right in front of them.

My review comes from Wacey think that's a great idea. My review comes from Wacey, which is an interesting name. He, she said, oh, it's he. I see the word dad. Your sponsors are killing me is the title of the five-star review. Love the podcast. I've been a committed listener since my sister

told me about you the first few months you guys started recording. OG goes, yeah. I'm a dad of two little kids, and like Brad, we have a home birth for a little girl. Thankfully, no puddle city, even though she was born within two and a half hours of labor starting. Jeez. My wife started listening after a few years of hearing me laugh about random jokes from the pod. And to quote one of Catherine's most Barbie shows, I will never financially recover from this. We were... I'm trying to think what...

My wife started listening. Why will he never financially recover from this? Maybe that works with the sponsors who are calling me. Yes. His wife is buying everything from us. Okay, cool. But hey, he's going to get a cool John Kander bag out of the deal. Yeah, there you go.

Yeah. He said, we were really considering coming to Grand Nebo. My wife is actually going to be assisting in a home birth over that time, so I'll have to keep an eye on the next vacation or get together. Love the laughs you guys provide and at times serious conversations while I work around the family farm and ranch. Blessings to you guys, and if I

Holy cow. Das wassup. Five-star review. My name's Thomas, and I just want to say that this podcast is wassup. It's clean, funny, and so random. We started a garden this year. Look out. And when we bite into a fresh tomato, we say, Das wassup. In my correct opinion, you should go on tour if you ever get enough money to.

If we ever get money? Because it's like a big overhead to go on tour. That's pretty funny. I want to go on tour. That's pretty funny. I want to go on tour. I just haven't raised the capital. Gosh, I just need like 10, 20 more thousand dollars to get on tour. It's like, no, I think you'd make money. Hopefully if you, we just need more demand for people like you, Uber wet.

So tell your friends, my mom is the random comment girl that has made such Facebook posts as do you kiss your spouse while they have morning breath? And do you get armpit sweat when you get scared?
