Jake, let's talk some baseball. It's fall. So let's talk baseball, right? You heard about this Blue Jays pitcher? You heard about him? No. You know about the Blue Jays pitcher, right? You heard the news? You're following the Toronto sports scene, right? Hey, it's fall. Have you heard? It's time for baseball talk.

Apparently, this Blue Jays starting pitcher, you say Kikuchi. I say Kikachi. Tomato, tomato, Kikuchi, Kikuchi. I say, I say Kikuchi. Tomato, tomato, Kikuchi, Kikuchi. Kikuchi went out of the game last night because he had cramps, which is not a big deal. People get cramps. Athletes get cramps.

Women get them all the time. That's once a month at least. I think maybe more. I don't know how that works. But the reason that he said he got cramps is because he only slept 11 hours instead of his normal 13 to 14 hours really uh who is this you this guy you say kikuchi said yeah he goes to bed at 11 p.m wakes up at 1 p.m and he's like ah didn't get my 13 hours last night and that's why he cramped only

11 you see kikuchi japanese professional but Japanese, they do like their sleep. I feel like they're known for their sleep. I feel like they have very like technologically advanced beds over there. Yeah. I think they value it. Like a futon that turns into a coffee table. It turns into a bed. That turns into like a cryo chamber. Like you can really go away for a while there. I mean, 11 hours, 13 hours on the daily. It's fun as a professional athlete to like, not just like a oh, that guy's a bum. That guy's a college student who just naps all the time.

He takes unemployment. That's why he sleeps 13 hours a day, right? Wow. What does it say about us? Like, when is he going to bed? When is he waking up 11 p.m. to 1 p.m. every night? Oh, wow. That's 14 hours. Good for him. Yeah, 13 to 14 hours. Holy cow. No, is that that's 13

no 14 hours. Holy cow. It's sleeping over half your life. Sleeping over half your life. Yeah. I mean, and the idea of like, hey, I only slept 11 hours like apologizing for it. Like I understand if it's like guys, I'm sorry. I slept four hours last night like, oh, sorry, dude.

That sounds like a rough night. 11 hours. Hey, guys, like, can we just stop and get some burgers on the way? I've only eaten like 5,000 calories today. So you get it. You understand why I'm hungry right now. Right. Hey, sorry. I don't know if I have enough to get 20 people plastered. I only bought 15 bottles of vodka. Yeah bought 15 bottles of vodka. 15 bottles of vodka? Yeah, that should do it. Cool, cool, box it up. Michael Scott, apology. Oh, yeah. I don't think I can afford to go to that. My dad's just an attorney.

That happened at a K-Life family one time. This woman was like, you can't afford to go to that. Your dad's only a physician. And I'm like, he's a doctor working nights. That's pretty funny. Hey, we can't be going off to summer camp. Come on. I'm a dentist.

Your dad's an ER doctor. Yeah, we can't afford everything. We're not the Bezoses. Hey, I just want to apologize. I don't know if we can end World War II. I only have these two nuclear atomic bombs. That's it. Sorry.

That's pretty good. I have some other ones, but I don't know. You want to end it on that one? I'll do a few more just in case here. Let's do a few more. Timon's parents. I don't know if You want to end it on that one? I'll do a few more just in case here. Let's do a few more. Tymon's parents. I don't know if we can all fit. We only have a 15-passenger van.

Nice. Yeah, Utah families. Yeah. Hey, I don't know if I can win who wants to be a millionaire Indian version. All I have is just this life of just normal, just like meeting people. I have a good memory, but I don't know.

I love that. Yours are all just like, like literal, like, like movies things like doing the next one in Forrest Gump's voice. Hi, I don't know if I'm a good football player. I'll never have my own ping pong paddle.

I just know how to run the ball and not get tackled. Yeah, they all just become movies. I don't know if I can ever take over the African... Wait, I'm doing Forrest Gump. I was trying to do Lion King. I was talking to Forrest Gump. Oh, jeez. I don't know if Uncle Scar is going to kill me, too. My name's Mowgli.

I'm going to meet that big bear over there. Mama always said, love is an open door. Now we've got to leave all that in. Yeah, that's perfect. That's awesome. Uh-oh. Ooh, I think this tight beat means that it's going down with some random thoughts and white meat too Midwest best friends

That was, that was the unofficial deal forever. So, um, uh, how was your week? Dude, a week's been great. Uh, always, always good. Um, it's kind of revolved around a biff that I had. I don't know if, uh, you remember me telling you this cause you were gone this past weekend, but I was like, oh yeah. Um, this weekend, Catherine's friend is in town. She's, she's coming to Kansas city, Kansas City to visit, but Catherine doesn't know it. Like it's one of her best friends from college, Ashlyn. And I've been like keeping a secret where I was going to surprise her, go pick her up on

Saturday morning when I'm like doing dad or day stuff and just come back with her. Turns out I had the wrong date. And so she didn't come last weekend, literally like, and I've been like in the dark, like, because I've been like in the dark, like, because I just know like every once in a while, Catherine uses my computer messages pop up. I'm like, try not to mess her too much.

And so I just texted her Friday night and I was just like, uh, nine 30 tomorrow morning. See you then. All exclamation points. Like, yeah, we're so excited.

And she goes, no next week. And so I confided that. I mean, I told Hattie on like Thursday, Hey, this is what's happening on Saturday. It'd be such a fun surprise. Hattie's so pumped about it. So pumped about like keeping the surprise. And it's been hilarious watching her not like spoil the surprise this past week. She's hanging onto it. Kinda like there's been some, I mean, Catherine definitely knows there's, we have something up our sleeves. Uh, just in general, I like to just wink at Hattie. Like when I just like

make eye contact with her, like, Hey, I love you. Like winking at her and she always winks back. And so like, it's not out of the ordinary for me to wink at her and her to wink back, but there's been a few times where Kat or Hattie will say something that's a lie, which is also hilarious just to watch Hattie like blatantly lie because I've just – she's like such an angel that she never lies about stuff. But she'll – like there was one time – what did she say? It was like in the morning and she's like, oh, oh, we had an idea. Like Friday night we were going to clean up the entire house just for fun, just like, hey –

Hey, that'd be nice. Like what if we – guys, as a family, we need to clean up the entire house. So like Thursday, I told Hattie about this. Like, this is the plan. You're going to have a really good attitude and you're going to respond and say, okay, great, I'll clean up the basement

because that's where Hattie always plays. That's where our guests always stay. And so I said like, hey guys, before we watch our movie night, we're going to clean up the entire house. Hattie, like, it was like she was reading a line from a movie script. She goes, okay, dad, I'll clean up the basement first. And then she looked at me and just smiled really big and winked. And Catherine's like, what was

that? And Hattie realized like, oh, I should not have done that. And so Hattie like almost immediately, like very quickly lied. And it was pretty impressive, like kind of scary, impressive. She's just like, oh, dad and I have just been practicing our winking a lot, like smiling. I mean, and I was like, good one. Yeah. Good one. Um, so it's been like this wonderful back and forth of like every once in a while, she'll almost give it away. Cause she's a kid and that's what happens. Like kids are terrible at keeping secrets. Cause there's no filter. Like if you ever ask Hattie, like, how do you, how do you play this game? She won't think about like, what's the best way of telling you how to play this game. She'll just immediately start talking,

you know, like there's no filter. So, uh, on the way out of church the other day, she's like, and what day is miss Ashland leaving again? And I mean, like the, it's crazy in church and it's hustle and bustle and Catherine just looks back. She goes, what? And you could just tell how he was like, oh, what have I said? And she was just like, oh, Ashlyn's someone in my class. I think I'll get it confused. Ashlyn and I've been practicing our wink thing. So anyway, we're just so pumped for her to be here. I'm so pumped to like finally tell Catherine like the surprise. Cause Catherine also mentioned, she's like, Hey, what about on Saturday? You know, you usually take the kids.

What if I finally use that gift card for that massage that I have had for a long time? And I'm like, well, I mean like, how long is that going to take? Like normally I'd be like, yes, go and go to lunch afterwards. If you, you know, whatever. And this time I'm like kind of being a jerk of a husband. And then I had the idea of like, well, maybe we could do like couples massage. And of course, it wouldn't be me. I'd be like, yeah, Ashton's going to join you. And so, you know, trying to do that somewhat nonchalantly, but also trying to make a reservation alongside of her. So it's hard to surprise people because you have to lie to them so much, so much. Oh my gosh. Proposing to Rachel sucked. And then, but it's so fun afterwards being like,

oh, I could tell you all these things now. Yeah, it is fun. It's like, oh my gosh, I got to tell you about when I asked your dad for, you know, his blessing. Oh, I haven't been able to talk to you about that conversation. Totally. Yeah. There's been so many times where I'm just like, oh, Catherine, like laughing. And she's like, what? I'm just like, I just love you. And in reality, I want to be like, I want to tell you so badly what Hattie just said. That was like almost giving it away. So anyway. Oh, and the other day, Ashley Burkhart, if you're listening to this, Ashley kind of accidentally reserved Gulf Shores room.

She thought it was whatever. She got confused on the four person room. And so she called me. Her name's Ashley. This girl that Catherine's, Catherine's friend, Ashlyn. So I called him like, hey, Ashley, how you doing? I like step away from the kids and Catherine and I come back and I'm telling her like, yeah, Catherine, you know, this Ashley girl, she just wanted to, she, she had got confused on the gold stores thing. And how do you say like, Oh,

Ashley got confused. And it was like winking at me. was like i was like no that's actually what happened so anyway it was it was great like she thought i was definitely talking to ashland that's pretty funny so on one hand it's like i'm i'm kind of impressed that how he can lie so well yeah on the other hand i'm like slippery slow who knew yeah who knew that my perfect little angel if it were beau like he could lie right now through his teeth like no problem that is funny so i'm there for a second i was gonna try and surprise rachel when we go to hawaii for our comedy shows surprise rachel with her parents there and i was gonna try to do this for a while and then i was like you know what this is not worth it because it's so close to thanksgiving i would have had to be like yeah hey why don't we just do thanksgiving at my parents house and just not see your parents at all and also christmas might be at my parents

house too you know whatever but like and but it'll be okay you know probably right you know we can do like let's just make 2023 the year of seeing my parents only and like 2024 is like only your parents yeah just like what i would have had to come up with. Yeah. Just like, this would not be worth it. Cause obviously it's like, we're about to hang out with your parents in Hawaii. Trust me.

I really like them. Yeah. So I was like, this isn't worth it. Let's just, let's just tell her. Yeah. But it is fun.

I feel like at any given time, I do have a surprise like ongoing for Rachel, which means that I'm just constantly lying to her as well, which is fun. But you can always justify it by saying it's a surprise. Well, I was surprising. I was surprising. That's why I have can always justify it by saying it's a surprise. Well, I was surprising you. That's why I have the second cell phone.

It's for a surprise. It's for when I have to talk to my bookie about surprising you with gambling debt. And a phone that you get to know about. That's how this works. Well, that's fun. It's a bummer we had the dates mixed up, but all good.

So this upcoming weekend, Ashton's coming to town. And then the next weekend is when you guys all go to Branson. Yeah. Well, I think we, it's kind of like more like the week into the weekend. I believe on Wednesday for that. So cool. Yeah. Yeah. Well, we'll see. Who knows? I I'm so gung ho about like, we could do 15 different things. And Catherine's like, ah, I don't, I don't know if we're going to be able to do all those things. Maybe we should just. Maybe just Titanic and one puppet. Yeah, right.

Pirates Cove only, okay? Yeah, I'm really looking forward to your recap of the Branson weekend. It's going to be awesome. I think it's going to be, we'll see. I think Hattie's going to be blown away in some ways of like, whoa, look at this Titanic thing. King Kong.

Yeah, right. And Bo's just going to be loving the Dixie Stampede, I think, and the Cowboys and all that stuff. So, yeah, I'm excited about the whole thing. That's nice. But, yeah, how about you? How about you? I've got a lot to talk about. I've been

to Vegas. I've done stand-up, but I've also been to Costco. Like, we need to start there. Yeah, you got it. When you go to Costco, you got to talk about it. Honestly, I kind of forgot about it, but I have a little, little Kirkland signature protein bar sitting next to me. So it was that chewy or crunchy protein bar. Can't tell. Uh, chewy, chewy protein bar by Kirkland. Fun. Honestly, this kind of reminds me, Rachel and I, we saw some show that was like number two on Netflix today. So like, it's probably good. Let's watch it. And for like, I'm, I'm almost embarrassed at how long

it took us to realize this, but we're like, man, the, they're like, I feel like the audio is off a little bit. It took us like five minutes to realize, like, it's a complete lip dump. Like it's a German show. And we're like, okay. Yeah. They're not even close to saying just cause they're white. You like assume they're speaking English. Yeah, no, they, they're just, they're a little slow. They're a little behind it. Something's off. Is the soundbar not working right? Like, yeah. Is it on a lag? I will say, I mean, immediately I're behind it something's off is the sound bar not working right like yeah is it on a lag i will say i mean immediately i was like something's off rachel might have watched all of episode one before she had noticed like i don't know i thought it was really yeah um so we watched the show and it's like it's like not great but it's like good enough

at the end of every episode it's like okay well let's see how they resolve this little right subplot and we get done with the whole show, and we would not recommend it to people. It's called Dear Child. We just didn't think it was that great. Is that D-E-A-R or D-E-E-R? It's called Dear Child. It's loosely based off Bambi.

The deer all speak German, and then they dub it over. So the lips are way off. Right. I was like, the deer lips are not moving how I thought they would for English. But one of the things, so it's like kind of a,

they used to be like kind of in a, not necessarily a cult, but almost like a bunker. Like they were like bunker children and like had this like guy who would like was in charge of them and like gave them food when they needed food and just like ran it like a weird cult bunker thing. And so what they would do every day in the show is you had to show him

your hands to show that you have no weapon in them or anything. Show him the front and back your hands. And when he does, he, uh, he will give them like literally this basically like a little like, uh, granola bar. And so every day since then rachel has before i leave she will make me show her my hands and she hands me a granola bar it's been really funny that is a great inside joke between us too it's like she's because i was like yesterday i'm about to shoot mood swings like i feel like i'm forgetting something what am i forgetting she's like you're forgetting something show me your hands i showed her my hands and she handed me this and that's amazing it's been great but anyway costco is uh i've been in there maybe once or twice, but never as like a fully

settled adult. Like never as somebody who's like, the opportunities are endless. Yeah. And it was a good time. First of all, I'm seeing people. We're bumping into people. Nolan from SBU. They're a whole family.

Garrett Clark's dad. That's fun. Garrett Clark's dad, okay. Somebody else. Maybe someone recognized me me it was a good time yeah and uh yeah we got set up we got take to take our our picture and i was just blown away i knew i feel like every year i learned about a new service that costco has like two years ago his rental cars like oh my gosh right and then last year was like oh they have this travel agency

maybe i'll book my honeymoon through there and then i learned so much more when i was inside of there. First of all, they have an entire like body shop. It's like the back of Costco. It's great. A body shop? Yeah. They're just like doing automotive work.

Body shop, I think is like the not, is that what they call the automotive workplace? I feel like body shop is like, if you get your car wrecked, you go to a body shop. Oh, okay. Maybe I'm saying the wrong word. That'd be cool if they did. It's like, yeah, my car got totaled, but I think Costco can, you know, fix it for a small price. Maybe, I just, mechanic, I don't know.

Yeah, maybe it's mechanic. I mean, they had like cars raised up, like a full on. You can get like tires and oil changes and stuff. Jiffy lube. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, it wasn't like a salvage yard. Right, right. Yeah, they got like metal in the back

that you can like pawn off. Yeah. For extra Kirklandland you know milk but that was fun and then even like as you have to leave i feel like they just show you everything that they offer and it's like gutters uh yeah they do gutters for you you know they do like air conditioning and they have all these appliances they do like roofing and uh i just amazed i was like we gotta, everyone's scared of Amazon taking over. Like when are we going to have Amazon phones and Amazon, you know, cars, but it's like,

I've got Costco sneakily like coming in here, dude. I went to the bathroom when I was there. What happened? They're taking over that. They talk about plumbing. No, but like the way you get to the bathroom is you go by like the employee lockers. And I bet, I mean, it, it looked like there were, you know, 150 lockers in use. Like there's so many employees in that thing. Really? And it just makes you realize like, this is such an operation. Yeah. Not just like a, Oh, this is a cute little, like Aldi. They got like four people working maybe less. Yeah. They don't. That's kind of one of their things is like maximize the efficiency of the workers by working the heck out of them. When we got there, we needed to like, um, kind of just like get our cards and sign up and

everything. And unfortunately they were very busy. And the guy who was like assigned us, it was his second day. And so the only thing he really knew is he knew the, the like Costco credit card. I think he, he has one. So he knows that really well. So he just went over that over and over and over and over he's like all right and so yeah that's pretty much how the credit card works he's kind of looking behind him yeah yeah yeah like stalling essentially they're okay they're still we're helping them over there so it really is a good card so apr stands for yeah like um you know why don't i show you my app they've got an app for it uh so he shows us he's like i don't buy anything you my app? They've got an app for it.

He's like, I don't buy anything crazy. He's running through things he bought last month. I didn't buy any furniture. I didn't buy anything for my car. I didn't buy just gas. I earned $400. Here it is in the app. Do you want $400 or do you not want $400?

We got the hard sell on the credit card, but then once we got through there, it was really fun. You didn't go for the credit card? We did not. Okay. I think, yeah. You're just fine. Yeah, with what we got going on right now.

Right. With my credit cards, with Rachel's farm credit union, we're doing just fine. The two of them combined, we have a credit limit of $10,599. But yeah, Costco was cool. It was fun. We loaded up on drinks. Yeah. Costco was cool. It was fun. We loaded up on drinks. Yeah. That was the main thing. Yeah.

Because we were both about to go out of town. So it's like, we don't need to get that much food here. But yeah, you start seeing all these fun drinks. Right. Can't help yourself. Yeah. You got to load up. In your situation, especially, since you don't have kids yet, it's just you got to load up

on things that aren't going to go bad anytime soon. Yeah. Like trail mix and toilet paper. Right. Right. Whereas Catherine the other day was was like we need to start buying our strawberries at costco because we oh we can't do it at aldi anymore because rosie rosie's a tank dude rosie you're running through strobs we had an entire uh carton in one dinner the other night oh wow without katherine didn't even get very many like i thought like like she's like oh i would

have liked to have a few more and i was like like, oh, yeah, is there not more? She's like, no, that's all of them. So, yeah. Big strawberry. Strawberries are good. Dude, berries are awesome. If I go shopping for our family, I come back with 10 cartons of berries. Yeah.

I'm like, well, it's either this or go to McLean's and spend five times more. Why not just get five things here? Should that be schmores on Wednesday? Or today, this episode, schmores of berries. Schmores of berries? Impromptu berry schmores. Okay. Right now? Yeah, sure. First of all, hi, Tymon. Yeah, what's up, Tymon?

Tymon's got a little bit of the pink eye today. Yeah, he's got a little gooseberry in his eye. Yeah, I know which one he's going to choose. Yeah, sorry about making him work through his pink eye. No problem. Let's just do it right now. Tymon, you are dominating us in s'mores from last week. Dominating.

Like we've never seen before, domination. Which, hey, that's Jesus for you. Right. Not in a bad way. Yeah, good for our audience. I'm glad Tymon's winning. That's right. I'd be worried if he wasn't.

Okay, s'mores or berries? Tymon, what do you want the order to be? timon's winning that's right i'd be worried if he wasn't um okay s'mores or berries timing what do you want the order to be uh man i gotta start typing out my berries oh yeah um let's go i'm going no notes berries uh brad me jake brad timing dang it there's clearly two really good ones timing oh really yeah all rightberries, number one. Strawberries, just incredible. I mean, even a mediocre strawberry is better than a solid apple.

You know? Blueberries. Yeah, the clear one and two there. Yeah. Wow, I gotta go back. Anything you'd like to say on that to give me more time to think? Blueberries.

When you think of blueberries, Tymon, what do you think of? The blueberries are good. Okay, I'm going to go. Blueberries are superfood, by the way. Yeah, they taste very good. I know what that means. It's good. I'm going to go rasp.

Watch out for that rasp. It was one of the first things I thought of I'm gonna go drew Barrymore for one of my berries the berries yeah I think she's had a lot of hot water right now but I don't understand why so I assume if I don't understand it it only affects like Hollywood I think it's like a sag thing so who yeah okay yeah so she's good goodbye me okay and goodbye Adam Sandler because they were in like 19 movies together um so rasp and drew Barrymore drew Barrymore is one of those uh celebrities that So she's good by me. And good by Adam Sandler because they were in like 19 movies together. So Rasp and Drew Barrymore. Drew Barrymore is one of those celebrities that I haven't seen very many of her movies,

but she's a really big deal. You know what I mean? I think I've seen 50 First Dates. I think that's the only movie I've ever seen with Drew Barrymore. Is she the one that plays the little girl in E.T.? Yes. Haven't really seen all of E.T. That's the one that I've seen.

That's the one that she she kind of got big on anyway okay timing uh blackberries yeah good answer now i should have taken notes i could have had drew very more as the last pick i definitely should have done blackberries that's all right okay think about berries brad raspberries okay. My next one is going to be acai berries. Those are berries, right? Yeah, they are. Um, I never had just the berry, but I've had the result. I, okay. Costco dude, uh, what's called Brookside dark chocolate acai berries. Oh, I think I've seen their package, right? Unbelievable. Yeah. So good. Okay. Maybe more for the us or the dark chocolate than the uh acai but all good um and then my next one is gonna be um goji berries okay yeah nice goji

berries i feel like i've had those i've definitely had those like every day i i've never just like said that because i could just think of that one specifically. Every now and then, if you go to certain acai places, they'll toss in some goji berries. Really? Not a fan of the goji. Okay. It's like a raisin in your chocolate chip cookie. It's like it's a... I guess mainly in texture. I feel like everything

is like... I don't know. It's just different texture. That just made me think of another one that might be better than goji, but... Raisinberry. Kinda. Go ahead, Tymon. Can I say grapes? Grapeberries. Let's see. Can I say bananas?

No, you can't say grapes. I like to say birthday cake. Is that okay? Is that a berry? Does it have berry in the name? 100%. That's the only thing. Drew Barrymore was better answered than grapes. Okay. Okay.

I think mulberries. Mulberries. I wanted mulberries. I grew up, we had a little mulberry bush. Yeah, we have like a mulberry tree like in our neighborhood. Yeah. That's just America for you. I don't think other countries have mulberries.

You know, just mulberry lane all around the mulberry bush. There is no way that a country that has a dictator also has mulberries. No way. They cannot operate at the same. No way. I miss mulberry. Sitting on the corner drinking ice cold cherry Coke with my goji berries. All right, Jake.

Oh, yeah. It's back to me. My final two. berries. All right, Jake. Oh, yeah. It's back to me. My final two. Yep. All right. We're going to go cranberries. Yeah. Still out there.

That's the one whenever you said raisins, I was like, oh, they make craisins. Yeah. Good. Cranberries. Good. Good drink. I feel like good drinkable berry. Yes.

Very much so. Also, some of my friends in high school who were trying to pass a drug test really liked cranberry juice as well. Newlyweds love cranberries. Really? Maybe. Look it up sometime. I don't get it. And then last one, I'm going to go also one that I thought of pretty quickly.

Daryl Strawberry. He's an old baseball player. Tymon knows him.

Um, let's, let's interrupt it with a good ranchers ad, huh? Okay. Yeah, let's do it. Ye freaking hall brother. We're sponsored, uh, today by good ranchers every day by good ranchers. Uh, if you don't know good ranch, guys, it's American meat delivered. And it's special. It's special not just because they love us, we love them,

but because their meat is simply the best. And it's not just red meat. No. It's not just their amazing Wagyu beef. No. Their cream of the crop ground beef or their prime pork with great marbling. No, not just that. It's also. Nope. Not just that. It's also white meat. Also, it's also better than organic chicken. It's also Italian seasoned

chicken. It's also fish. Yes, that's right. Wild caught salmon. I think wild caught fish. Yeah. I don't know the type of fish, but there's a, there's a few different options. One of them is definitely salmon. Let that be a lesson that I'm doing all this without looking at any notes. That's how familiar I've become with good ranchers and what they offer and how good at all this. Absolutely. A wild caught Pacific cod, Alaskan halibut, sockeye salmon, and Gulf shrimp packs. Okay.

So no Sam at the moment, but it is wild caught. Salmon, salmon, salmon. Oh, salmon, salmon. Sockeye salmon. Sockeye salmon. Hey, hey, what's up, sockeye salmon? Who wants some of my sockeye salmon? Sorryye salmon hey hey what's up sockeye salmon who wants some sockeye salmon sorry i only slept 13 hours last night yeah i was eating sockeye salmon

um but no if you are interested in good ranchers check them out good ranchers.com uh they have free ground beef for two years going on right now if you subscribe today uh but guess what that offer ends october 6th So if you're listening to this, you don't have much time. Also another offer that ends October 6th is going to be, uh, the price lock guarantee. So right now, if you subscribe right now, you will get your price lock guaranteed for two until 2025. That's going away October 6th. Uh, so get it while you can get it while it's hot. I'll tell you what's not going away. Inflation. Nope. So you're going to want to lock in that price. I would log it in. Uh, I talked to Joe Biden recently and I was like, Hey, this like inflation plan, you, it's all, it's not working. He's like, Oh yeah. Oh, just wait. It's going up. Just wait. It'll go up eventually. And eventually

we'll, we'll get it there. Yeah. That's what he texted me back. He said, you just wait, just you wait buster. Uh, no, but if you don't know, I mean, good ranchers truly makes, I mean, makes has the best meat around only from America. Um. And it's just, there's something different about it. Just got another package from Good Ranchers, better than organic chicken yesterday. And it's just like a, it's like Christmas morning every time the Good Rancher box shows up at the door. I'm starting to get a lot of cool stuff in my door these days. Pickleball paddles, golf gear, but when that Good Rancher shows up. There's nothing like it, dude. There is nothing like it. Just last night, we had some Good Ranchers chicken breasts, and they were amazing.

This place will not break us The Phenomenon returns to Paramount Plus The only way we go home is together From new season now streaming exclusively on Paramount Plus Okay, speaking of politicians, just real quick Last night, about 10 p.m., checked the Mood Swings Instagram Saw like, oh, you've been mentioned in someone's story looking up it was sarah palin no way yeah so random so as of now as we're recording this i think we might still be on her story right now what's what's old palin up

to these days yeah it's kind of fun to look at it was like what is she doing not much i don't think reposting golf comedy videos what if sarah palin you know how tina fey did a bunch of like impersonations of Sarah Palin? Yeah. What if she just made it her job after Tina Fey's had a pretty successful career to like reverse engineer that?

Now I want to be more of a Tina Fey type character. Now she's doing 30 rock bits and you know, yeah. Getting into comedy. That'd be pretty funny. What video was it? Trey and I did a video

like if guys acted like girls out on the golf course. Yeah. And so she tagged her, like one of her friends in it and then quoted something I said and said, it says Mr. Skinny over here. So maybe they said that to each other on the course, or maybe they just said that to each other or something, but it was fun. Okay. And like Sarah Palin, how, how rare was it that she reposted it? Like, was it one of those things where she had 18 things on her story? She had a

lot. She didn't have like Instagram blogger type, but it was like, oh wow, you use your Instagram more than I would think. Okay. For like someone that age. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. She didn't have like Instagram blogger type, but it was like, oh, wow, you use your Instagram more than I would think. Okay. For like someone that age. Yeah, yeah, yeah. She probably had like seven things on her story. Still not crazy amounts of. It's not just like, I'm just posting anything I see here. Yeah, yeah. Okay.

It was like some like, you know, right wing podcast clip. Uh-huh. And then it was a couple other things that she liked and then it was us. Good. It's not bad. That's awesome. I've never been repost posted by any uh you know vice presidential candidates before i don't think i have either well until yesterday until now yeah

that's fun um okay tell me about vegas vegas unless you have more to tell about costco i mean we could talk about costco that's probably good for costco So Vegas was so fun. Uh, Rachel and I last week went to that volleyball game I told you about. And we, we got some concession stand popcorn that I paid for it with a hundred dollar bill. And afterwards I was like, Oh dang, I'm going to Vegas this week. And that would have been nice to have that. You got a concession stand $2 popcorn with a hundred dollars. That's all I had. That's the most baller move. Like, ah, sorry. Just have the Benjamin. You break change?

Yeah, sure. We could change. Okay, here's $100. I had a $1 bill and a $100 bill. There was no in between. It was from the magic trick still. It was still from when I did the magic trick with Gunner. Oh, that is so funny that you were at like this like,

you know, side, you know, hallway at a high school. And you're like like here's a hundred bucks kid like hope yeah hope you have change for anybody else yeah so anyway i kind of just a little comment like oh man like i that would have been nice to have for you know because we're going to vegas you know you know walking around money and anyway we get home that night and rachel or maybe it's a couple days later but she gives me me, she's like, why don't we trade? You're like $96 for a hundred that I have. And so I was like, okay, sure.

That's fine. And then she gives, and then like a day later, she gives me another $100 bill that she found in her wallet. She's like, here, you need this for your Vegas trip. And I was like, this sounds like something from the perfect wife video. Yeah. Like, hey, I found $100. You're going to want this for Las Vegas. Yeah.

I don't need anything else. I completely trust you. I'm completely satisfied without material things're going to want this for Las Vegas. Yeah. I don't need anything else. I completely trust you. I'm completely satisfied without material things because I have you. Uh-huh. Yeah. I was like, I can't believe you just did all that and said that to me. That is exactly what a video would be. Like, here, take this money.

Go have fun in Las Vegas with it. I just love that she's randomly finding $100 bills in her purse. Oh, yeah. I mean, you texted me yesterday about like, well, because the store was open at our house. We thought maybe someone had intruded. I don't think they did. Brad texted us like, is anything missing? And I was like, with Rachel? Yes. Like at all times. Yes. Something is missing, but not in the criminal sense. Yeah. So anyway, get to Vegas. One of the first things we did, we get to the airport. It was just kind of cool. Tom emails us. It's like, hey, your driver will be at the bottom

of the escalator with your name on it. Like, oh, that's never happened before. Oh, yeah. We're getting like a service, like a car service to take us to the hotel. The guy actually wasn't there. Oh, bummer. Well, it could have been fun. Well, these days they just put it on their phones, which is kind of a bummer.

Yeah. Some of them have like a Samsung. It's like a big phone or small iPad. I'd be okay with a tablet. I'm okay with a tablet. I don't mind like interchangeable screens, but it's like a big phone or small iPad. I'd be okay with a tablet. I'm okay with a tablet. I don't mind like interchangeable screens, but I don't want a phone.

Like, you know, doing heads up, seven up kind of thing on this thing. So we can't find him. So we're walking all around the airport. As we're walking around,

we're just in baggage claim, just public airport. We see Draymond Green walk right past him. Kind of fun. That, yeah, he would be noticeable. Six foot eight, probably. Yeah, he was, yeah, it was funny. He's like of fun. That, yeah, he would be noticeable. Six foot eight, probably.

Yeah, he was, yeah, it was funny. He's like so under. Professional basketball player timing. Frank Darryl Strawberry for basketball. Cool. He's so undersized for his position in the NBA and looks small on the court. And like, yeah, he's massive in baggage claim.

But that was kind of fun. Cause yeah, we, I mean, he's just a huge guy and there's no one else around us. It's like Isaac and I walk in this way, Draymond Green, and this, like, Golden State assistant coach walking this way. So it's just us two. And so, yeah, I feel like he had his hood up, sunglasses on, and his head down. He was definitely trying to, like, blend in.

But I feel like when he's that high up, you get a pretty good angle at him. Right. And so I'm looking. We don't say anything. Isaac's looking. And then I turn around at the same time. We're like, Draymond Green. Yeah. Like, that was just, like, 100% definitely him. But didn't say anything isaac's looking and then i turn around at the same time we're like draymond green yeah like that was just like 100 definitely him but didn't say anything to

him no i'm surprised isaac didn't say something maybe the headphones the headphones do really take it to a new level of like i'm not saying anything this guy i don't think he had headphones did i say headphones maybe you didn't uh but yeah sunglasses hood up yeah um but yeah so that was kind of fun yeah kind of random uh vegas the shows were good casino shows you never really know because um the casino will give out a ton of comp tickets you have a bunch of people there who don't really know you right so the shows usually are not as loud but we were impressed it's good vegas crowd friday night was pretty solid and then saturday night we did two shows in the same spot was even more ticket buyers and less comp tickets.

Okay. So it was even better. Yeah, even better fans, basically. The first night, after I got off stage, someone, like an elderly woman, passed away in the hallway, we're pretty sure. Isaac was out there and just texting us updates. Passed away? Something's going on in the hallway.

Not passed out, like died. He's like, I don't know,'s going on in the hallway, not passed out, like past. Like, yeah, he's like, I don't know. I'm just looking at this like old woman. She's like not moving. What?

Like they just brought a stretcher out and just wheeled her out of here. Whoa. I killed. Sorry. Um, uh, that was interesting. So,

okay. Kind of a funny part of this is that DJ Travis, I guess before the night was trying to do like a little roll call like all right where's my gen z yet where are my millennials at nice i guess he gets all the way he goes from baby boomers he goes all right and now where's the greatest generation at and just no one says anything so travis like he comes off stage he's talking to us like why did no one cheer we're like do you realize how old these people have to be to be in the greatest generation that's why no one cheers what We're like, do you realize how old these people have to be to be in the greatest generation? That's why no one cheered. What is the greatest generation?

Is that the boomers or is that above the boomers? I think it's like above the baby boomers. Wow. Greatest generation age range. Yeah. 1901 to 1927 is when they were born. So we're like, yeah, these people don't exist. 1927.

Yeah, you're like 100 years old. The young ones. So therefore, if they were alive, they're not even hearing this guy. That's what we try to tell them. We're like, dude, this is your fault. It's not the crowd's fault. Rumor has it one woman tried to yell

and found her out in the hallway later. So that's what we're telling them. We're like, dude, you can't blame this on the crowd. The greatest generation, yeah. I mean, I've heard that and thought it was like the boomers or something. Like people say, oh, yeah, we're the greatest generation. Oh, 1927, you'd be 96 years old right now.

That's easy math, right? Like, wow. Wow. That's hilarious. Idiotic. And so we're like giving him a hard time and making fun of him. And then, yeah, 30 minutes later, I get done performing. Isaac is texting the group like, you know, this woman outside, whatever.

And I go like, is she old? And Isaac goes, tell Travis, I just found someone from the greatest text of the weekend, but obviously sad for that woman. Apparently there's somebody, there's a generation in between baby boomers and grace generation called the silent generation. That makes sense. But yeah, never heard of it. No one yelled for them. Uh, 1925 to 1945 1945 it says on here so according to careerplanner.com oh that's like our like grandparents age yeah silent generation yeah it is funny like to think like why didn't these super old people make a bunch of noise like have you ever seen a like an old person try to like go like like even... Even a grandpa who's

the most lively grandpa in the world, if he's yelling, it's still not audible. Yeah, I mean, there could have been 500 of them there, but how loud do you expect it to be? They would just be clapping. And they wouldn't even be completely making good contact with their... Like, they're not...

It's like so that was fun i uh tried a 9-11 joke did i tell you that going into it smart yeah the uh so i noticed it watching monday night football last week maybe you know did you watch football uh no i mean i saw i saw of it, but not till the end. So I noticed it. Because I was watching a 9-11 documentary, by the way. Oh, good for you. Catherine's like, if you haven't watched a 9-11 documentary on 9-11, are you even an American?

And I was like, okay, I'll watch one with you. Is it like a conspiracy theory documentary? No, no, no. Here's what happened. No, yeah, we watched a little bit of one, and then we watched more of another one on Hulu. I think it was from the Discovery Channel or something like that.

Cool. Well, anyway, so Monday Night Football occurs on 9-11. To commemorate it, they have different types of coins. Okay. And so it was like, or not different types,

but it was special coins. On one side, it was like, yeah. Heads is the American flag. Tails is the Twin Towers. I was like, who would want to choose this? Like, why were we like, ooh, Twin Towers. Yeah, right. Yes, yes, yes. Come on, Twin Towers. Come on,, who would want to choose this? Like why? We were like, Ooh, Twin Towers.

Yeah. Yes. Yes. Yes. Come on, Twin Towers. Come on, please,

please, please, please. Um, and to make matters worse, the game went into overtime. So we have to come back out. Once again,

you guys can choose the Twin Towers. Uh, okay. Call it in the air. Call it in the air. Why has it got to be in the air? Okay. Can we just call it,

you know, whatever. And, um, ultimately then I was doing some jokes about how the team who ended up winning was the new york jets which is just like come on just a little too on the nose come on the twin towers the new york jets chose the twin towers how does that's pretty good that's pretty clever yeah thanks um i think people are still a little nervous to laugh about 9-11 okay but it was getting a laugh so it wasn't

like silence by any means. I would say like six out of 10. And that was with a casino crowd. So I don't know. I feel like that's a really good joke. That's like an A-plus joke. But with Trey Kennedy fans, it's probably a B, solid B joke. Yeah, I run into those every now and then.

Because it's like, whoa, that's a little too far for what we're expecting. Whereas if Sam Morrill made that joke, it'd be like, oh my gosh, that's incredibly funny. Yeah, that's a little too far for what we're expecting. Whereas like if Sam Morrill made that joke, it'd be like, Oh my gosh, that's incredibly funny and creative. And like, I didn't even think about the fact that the jets were the team. Yeah. It's funny you mentioned Sam Morrill. Cause yeah, we are very different communities. I love Sam. He's hilarious. I love following him, but he posted a clip just like a couple of days ago and he found out someone in his crowd was homeschooled and like his reaction is like, you homeschool your kids my gosh we're talking you know like that's like part of our whole act it's like oh yeah obviously right there's tons of homeschooled moms here like trey

yeah is completely yeah dependent on like somebody in the crowd homeschooling yeah he will ask okay who homeschools here right it's just so funny like the different types of comedy there's so many ways to make people laugh yeah so many different types of audiences well yeah and so much of comedy. There's so many ways to make people laugh. Yeah. So many different types of audiences. Well, yeah. And so much of comedy is like, hey, don't say that thing unless you're a comedian. Like comedians can make that joke. Yeah. You know, whereas like I think your audience with Trey is like, okay. Still, hey guys.

I mean, that's pretty funny, but I don't know if we're supposed to laugh at that. Yeah. You know? Yeah, I definitely felt that, but it was fun. It was definitely nerve wracking. Like as I'm gearing up for it, like I'm saying the thing before I'm like, all right, here it goes. I'm about to start the untested, never done before a nine 11 joke in front of a 1200 people. That's all right.

Yeah. Right. But it went fine. So that was solid. I'm trying to think if there's anything else from Vegas. It was just, uh, it was a good time. It was fun. Just, yeah.

Just not having to get on a bus or travel. Just go there two days, uh some golf, and came home. Fun. Did you do any gambling, blackjack? I actually barely, barely did. Really? Like, I'd never even played blackjack. Wow.

I went to, they had an entire room dedicated to bingo. I was like, I got to check this out. That's fun. I'm great at bingo. Yeah, right? I'm one of the best at bingo. I feel like any time I've ever been in a casino with Rachel or her parents, like we've been in the Tampa Hard Rock together or I think Las Vegas,

they always ask for bingo. Like, do they have bingo here? I'm like, I don't think they have bingo here. Like, they have Keno. That's like the closest thing. And I've never seen anything with bingo. And I was like, oh my gosh, Rachel, this place has a whole room dedicated to bingo.

So I went in there, but it was really sad. It was just like, that's what I was just about to say. Yeah, it was really sad. It's like these really fun games. You play them in Vegas. It's like these people have been playing all day, and therefore they don't really get excitement from it. They're just trying to get back to making enough money to go home.

Yeah, there were only like five people in this huge room playing, and they're all playing playing just like by themselves, like smoking a cigarette, playing on the screen. Right. I would have to ask, how do you buy in? Like how does it work in bingo? Are we playing against each other, against a computer? You do blackout?

Are you allowed to call it that anymore? Four corners. Right. Where we talk. So I didn't play bingo. I did like one slot machine for like 20 minutes, and I was like, what am I doing? Let's get out of here. Yeah. All so yeah it's fun weekend it's good to be back and uh yeah one last kind of weekend without touring and then i think october gets pretty crazy from

what i remember i think it's like three out of the four weekends and you're going is it this weekend you're going somewhere this weekend i'm going to austin tex Texas. Be kind of a honeymoon part two, just for the weekend. Yeah, you're like trying out. Like, hey, we didn't have the greatest honeymoons. Let's do it again. Let's see if there's others. Yeah, we kind of got hooked up for free via some golf connections to go to this kind of golf resort spa thing.

Going to go with Josh and Maggie Mayer, Joe Gilliland, his wife. And so flying down to Austin. And the website looks nice, but so does Sandals. So we will see. Incredible pictures on the website. Yeah. Yeah, we've seen their commercials

for the last 15 years. So I assume it's pretty solid. Michael Scott went there. So yeah, we'll see. But yeah, should have some stories from going down to Austin, Texas. Do you think that that resort in Austin has like really high quality premium sheets?

And it just feels so nice on your skin. It's very soft, buttery, soft. And the joggers, they're just like the perfect blend of like really good fit. And they don't necessarily look like they're as soft as pajamas, but I feel like you could still get away with wearing them out. Not frumpy. Frumpy. Yeah. Anti-frump. Yeah.

Maybe. Okay. Kind of both. Same. I guess. Yeah. These days, I feel like DJ also has the role of the MC AKA like also makes the announcements and stuff. But like, I think of him more as the DJ. Um, so whatever he's DJ in this wedding and he said, uh, right. He's like, I'm doing it this

weekend. And so far there's only two songs on the playlist, uh, from the couple. Yeah. By usher and uptown funk by Bruno Mars. And I just, I, he sent this to our, you know, fancy football from the couple. Why? Yeah by Usher and Uptown Funk by Bruno Mars. And I just, he sent this to our, you know, fantasy football group and I said,

only play those two songs on repeat and just see what happens. Like, I was like, I guarantee you it'll be the most memorable wedding reception

anybody's ever been to. At first, it's going to be like, what's this guy doing? Again, and then like maybe, it'll take maybe like four times through the rotation. And then that fourth time, it's going to be a breaky point. Either people are going to get very angry or buy into it

and just go absolutely nuts to these two songs. All right, that's great. I have a couple things to say. One, it can definitely be funny to play the same song over and over again. So this happened on the golf course in Vegas. One of Trey definitely be funny to play the same song over and over again. So this happened on the golf course in Vegas. One of Trey's friends that we were all golfing with,

he had a Bluetooth speaker and he was playing it so loud because it was like a little obnoxiously loud. And he's playing this song, Bills. I don't even know who it's by. I got bills.

I gotta pay. Uh-huh. I don't know. Yeah. Over and over again. So then, we're like on the green, we could still hear bills blaring from the cart.

We're like, Oh my gosh, get this song off the speaker. And it ends and you just hear it loop back around. And he played it like a couple more times. It was pretty funny every time he played it. Because, because there's that,

that funny, like two seconds where it's like, is it going to, is he going to recognize he should play a different one? The song gets over and you're like, okay, maybe we're going to do a different song. Maybe we're going to do a slow song. Butterfly Kisses. Who knows? And you just hear it once again.

And it's like, ah! Because I think you and I, in time, we would just embrace it. Zach would be going nuts on it. Yes, again! Like, let's go up town fuck you up yeah uh like have different like every every song every time through every iteration is different themes so this time it's a little bit of a cowboy you know like riding the horse or whatever um adam i think what would be really funny is after you started to give a rhythm doing this you let another like a third song slip in there

sprinkle in there but so it's like there's the first part of party you're saying and then you go just yeah and then you go oh my gosh sorry guys sorry guys i made a mistake if you play uptown punk yeah don't even play i was like i was thinking you were gonna say like play the whole song yeah no no you just like, the first three seconds. Enough for you to, like, hear what song it is. It's like tonight. Hello. Oh, sorry.

Dope. Like the first part of Low by Flo Rida. Like. Peace out. Same town. Sorry, guys. Sorry. We got to get back to the songs on the playlist.

That is so funny. And just, like, blame the bride and groom the whole time. Like, they'll be requesting other songs. Like, people at the reception. Hey, sorry. Talk to the playlist. That is so funny. And just like blame the bride and groom the whole time. Like they'll be requesting other songs, like people at the reception. Hey, sorry. Hey, talk to the bride. Talk to the bride and groom.

It's their day. I'm just trying to follow orders here. Talk to the bride. That's really funny. Only two songs. When is the wedding? Is it now?

Yeah, it must have been. Yeah. Well, yeah. Get us a follow up on how that went. That's pretty funny. I got to hang out with a ghostie this past week.

Shout out Brayden Parsons. Yeah. I don't know if people really know this, but the Ghost Runners logo you see, that is of the literal ghost with a headband on, Brayden Parsons created that probably three years ago, at least. Yeah.

So yeah, he's been a loyal ghostie. He was in town for work for a trade show. And I was like, like hey you want to play spick wall and i was like yeah so brayden no and i just went up to the nexa courts where they're starting to do the leagues yeah golly haven't seen that guy since uh no every day that's so great that you saw him uh no leagues going on this night so we just went and just uh paired up with random people and uh really really ran the table on them there for a while. We got split up, obviously. Yeah, sure. No, but it was really fun. He's great.

He lives in Nashville. He's in the same small group Bible study as John Crist. He's like, oh, look at us working with Christian comedians. What's John Crist prayer request these days? Like trying to get some dirt on them. That's cool. Uh, and I'm going to Nashville, uh, like a week from now I'll be in Nashville. So I was like, dude, I'll let's get dinner next week. So I'll plan on seeing him again. And yeah, he got us some gifts. He works in like merchandise and all these, like, I don't know what a custom goods. And so he got us each some tumblers, a little foam football, dude. I, yeah. You're like, yeah, the phone football is for Bo. So right before bed last night, I was like, Bo, I have a gift for you.

And then Hattie was right there and she was really excited. And I was like, actually, it's for all the kids. He said it's for all the kids, you know, so they don't get too possessive over anything. But yeah, showed Bo this little tiny foam. Bo was like, it's squishy. He was so excited about that. He literally slept with the football last night.

Really? I was like, ah, what a dream what a dream son right there sleeping with the football. So that's awesome. That's really cute. He was really pumped about it. Yeah. So thank you, Brayden for that. Shout out Brayden. Yeah. He was stud. It was great to talk to him and yeah. Good to connect with other ghosties when they're in town. It's always fun putting a face to a name. Connor Kelderman for the longest time I had a long slender face in my head. You know, he's a stout, strong man. He's a linebacker. Yeah, that's right. Connor Kelderman, maybe segue. Let's talk guillotine. Let's talk some fantasy football guillotine league real quick. First of all, Brad put up a little blog post just all about football

and people loved it. Yeah. I feel like it's, it's wet my beak a little bit. I'm like, do we need to do this? Did you enjoy reading it? Yeah, I did. Yeah. Oh, what did I only disagreed with one thing? Oh, I think you had the Rams. It's like your six best team in the NFL or something. It was, it was a classic like Schmores Berry thing. Like I didn't, I didn't look at any of the teams. I accidentally put the bills on there twice. Did you notice that? I didn't even know. Samuelson's like, Oh, Bill's at six and eight or something like that. I don't know what I want. Yeah, something like that. Yeah. No, it was good. Yeah, the Rams probably don't deserve to be on there. I think they look good against the Niners, though,

even though they lost. So it wasn't about records. I think Ross Ferencz was like, maybe you should put the Commanders in there. They're 2-0. I'm like, the Commanders are not one of the 10 best teams in the league. Yeah, they beat bad teams. Yeah.

But yeah, I really liked it. Liked what you had to say about Mike McDaniel, because I agree. He seems like a cool guy, dude, right? He's a cool nerd who got to coach the NFL. Yes.

We should celebrate this. It's like, it's like, you're just a guy. You're just a normal dude. Yeah. Yeah. A hundred percent.

Yeah. Tyreek Hill being the best receiver. Do you agree with that? Yeah. I mean, what Mike McDaniel is doing by getting him in motion. So he's already like close to full speed before the play starts. Right.

Pretty smart. Yeah. It's electrifying. Rachel tried to get Tyreek Hill cause he went up at free agency. Oh, I saw that. And she was so close. Yeah. close to full speed before the play starts right pretty smart yeah it's electrifying rachel tried to get terry killed because he went up at free agency oh i saw that and she was so close yeah she bid 52 over half of her budget and someone outbid her someone bid 56 yeah it's crazy so he's a valuable guy he is did you pick up anybody this week didn't i uh i was looking at that just earlier today so like on wednesdays is when like you get to see who you bid on these

players time and you have a hundred dollars for this season. You bid on these players and if you get them, obviously you have to pay the money. Um, but you can also see underneath you, you'll see like your winning bid and then you'll see everybody else's bids on them. And I always like bidding on everybody and kind of insultingly low just to

kind of like mess with their psychological, like, like Tyree kill went for $56. I'll bid like $2 knowing like, there's no way I'm going to get them unless I bid a lot of money, but somebody is going to get him for $56. Be like, yes. And then be like, Whoa, Brad only thought these guys were $2. Yeah. I did $1 on Tyree. Kind of price is right. So I didn't want to go over. Right. Yeah. Or I thought everyone else was too high. Yeah. And, but no, I didn't get anybody probably need to make some moves in one of the leagues i'm real on the cusp right now one league we're

kind of similar one league we have very good teams and the other league are we both bad in the same league i don't know actually okay i know the the league i think on monday league where i got the fourth pick i have a really good team in the tuesday league right the 17th pick i do not have a good team kind of makes sense a little bit. Yeah, I think, yeah, you don't want to be on the end. Right. So, but anyway,

yeah, Rachel has yet to pick up a player yet. So I feel like her, I keep telling her, like, you probably should spend some money. Right. Time's coming.

Yeah. She started, you know, Jay Mechie last game who didn't, Mechie didn't, didn't have a single catch. I know, it's tough. But I think we,

who do we say goodbye to? I know it was Lindsey. Lindsey and John. Lindsey Merchant. John Harris. Yeah. Yeah, which they usually make it pretty far. They're loyal ghosties. They were on the Florida trip.

Yeah, they went to the finals, I think. Yeah, I think so. And I'm trying to think who else got knocked out. I'll try and look. Was it Jennifer? Is that her name? Oh, yes. Jen Vorp.

Was it Vorp? Also a loyal ghostie. Was that who it was? I think she came to F12. Yeah, she's a Wisconsinite? Yeah. Yep. Was she the one that got out?

She's made it decently far. Has she? Yeah. I think our first year during the guillotine, which that was kind of a bummer. Yeah. Yep. We'll see the one that she's made it decently far. Has she? Yeah. Uh, previous, I think our first year during the guillotine, which that was kind of, uh,

it was kind of a bummer. Yeah. Yeah. Gin for up. You're right. It was, yeah, it's okay.

You know, injuries, you know, starting to hurt some people a little bit. Yep. Chubbs down. That was wild. Poor guy.

I, you know, Jensen is a huge Browns fan. And so I text them a few times during the game, like, Oh, that was close. Or that was crazy. Or, you know, Jensen is a huge Browns fan. And so I texted him a few times during the game, like, Oh, that was close. Or that was crazy.

Or, you know, all these different things didn't respond back to me. And so I thought to myself, like, maybe he's not as big of a Browns fan as I thought, or he's like, so into the Browns.

He's not, he can't text. And he texted me the next day. He's like, dude, I'm just, I'm so sad right now, man.

I'm just so sad. I'm like, I, I know if it makes you feel better though, dude, like when your team wins, it's awesome for like a day or a week. And then it kind of goes away. So don't, don't put too much of your worth into, you know, sports, but is he bummed because they lost or bummed because of Nick Chubb? Probably both. I think it's like, he's kind of seeing, I don't know. He didn't say exactly. He's got to be bummed for Chubb because that was their best

player. And it's probably like, and without Chubb, that was their best player. It's probably like, without Chubb, Deshaun Watson's not the guy. I feel like running back is the most replaceable position in football, though, outside of maybe long snapper. James Ford looked amazing. Jerome? Jerome Ford? Yeah. Looked amazing. Looked great. Jay Ford?

He's the only guy I picked up this week in kid team. You're going to love him. Thanks. You're going to love Jay Ford. He's a good guy I picked up this week in kid team. You're going to love him. Thanks. Yeah. You're going to love Jake Ford. Yeah, he's a good guy. Yeah. Solid tipper. Tyman, do you have any football updates for us?

Nope. Nope. I saw you went and played pickleball this week, though. Yeah. It was a sport. It did. How was it? Was it Meadowbrook in the rain?

Yes, it was. Yeah, not a single person there. Just like took the rollers, got the water off the courts. Yeah. Those rollers worked pretty well. Yeah. That's good. But man Just like took the rollers, got the water off the course. Yeah, those rollers work pretty well. Yeah. That's good. But man, I love pickleball. It's so fun.

Wow, okay. Okay. I like it. Give me your power rankings as far as like you and your friend, in your friend group, where do you rank? Be honest, because I know your friend's listening to this podcast. It was a group of like theater kids that are not like necessarily good at sports right that's oh oh not the not the jock theater kid uh one guy caleb shout out to caleb he's really good he's just athletic whatever he's not a theater kid yeah lame um but yeah i'd say i don't know i'm maybe like top three of like the people that went.

Maybe. I'm not super consistent. Okay. That's your downfall? But yeah, I'm not like playing that day made me feel, oh, I might be pretty good at pickleball. But like it would depend on who I played with. Who's like the person in your friend group you're like,

I don't want to be on that guy's team. I'm serious. I want to hear. I don't know. Zach. Oliver. Oliver's not know. Zach. Oliver. Oliver's not bad. Yeah.

Okay, so Zach. Okay. Got it. Zach. Yeah, Zach didn't make it to the pickleball. Yeah. Didn't even make it. Any ladies coming out?

Any co-ed pickleball or just... Yeah, yeah. Midgey. Midgeo? She wasn't there. No. Midgey, Minnesota. But yeah, It was fun.

Yeah, I feel like people really hate on pickleball in the rain, but it bounces pretty well as long as it's not like puddles in the rain. Yeah, we got the puddles. We played in the rain plenty of times back in the day. Yeah, we did. That was before we were really playing though. Yeah, you got to be careful with your feet, obviously, sliding and hurting yourself.

But it bounced just fine, I think. Yeah, You got to be careful with like your feet, obviously sliding and hurting yourself, but it bounced just fine. I think. Yeah. Yeah. You could still do it. If you like got the itch, you could definitely still play in the rain. Right.

The, when we are at the pro pickleball tournament on Saturday, it was like sprinkling rain and they were like calling off games. And I was like this, come on guys. Come on. Yeah. Like,

it's one thing if it's like raining, raining, but it wasn't even enough to like squeegee off or anything like that. Really? No. So. No. No.

Something that happened this week, I had Timon do a little work for me. I had him make me a little thumbnail for Friday Pickleball. Okay. And time goes back, you know, an hour later, he's got something for me. He texts me. You know where I'm going with this, Timon? He texts me the thumbnail. He goes, here for me. He texts me. You know where I'm going with this time? He texts me the thumbnail. He goes, here it is. Be

brutal. Oh, yeah. I was like, be brutal. Why? What? Be brutal. Hey, man, here's the work you asked for. Please, please verbally harass me. Punch me in the face with your words. I want it to hurt. Yeah, please.

Please be rude. Yeah. Say something insensitive. Make me internally bleed. Say something. I want to be crying. Yeah. Hey man, here's a thumbnail. Say something that'll really like offend me and my family.

Yeah. Give me trauma. Give me trauma that I can use with my therapist. Be brutal. It was great. It's good to know he's not shying away from any constructive criticism. I do like that. Yeah. Here you go. Be brutal. Be brutal. It was great. It's good to know he's not shying away from any constructive criticism. I do like that. Yeah,

here you go. Be brutal. Be brutal. Be brutal is like next level. Not like be honest. Yeah. I could have said like be brutally honest or be honest. Yeah.

Yeah. Don't be afraid to be brutally honest. Don't be afraid to just, just absolutely maim me. Tar and feather me with your words. I want to hear it. Sounds kind of funny. I just wanted to bring that up.

Be brutal. What do you look for in a thumbnail these days? Good question. I mean, I still have a lot to learn. Still trying to figure it out. I think we want bright colors. We want this clearly to be a pickleball video. I need to see lines in the background, paddle in the foreground.

Okay. I need to see faces up close. Always a big fan of faces. You like words? No words? I go back and forth on words. Sometimes you need them, sometimes you don't. I'm a big fan of a big red arrow.

Okay. Really like a big red arrow. Nice little graphic. Yeah. Big red arrow will do you some numbers. What's the arrow pointing to? Whatever. Point it to me.

Point to the ball. Point to the sky okay yeah point to something big red arrow uh timon put his own little spin on things i really liked you know just like nice clean uh outlines of bodies oh yeah like that really helps them pop a little bit nice he also kind of color-coded it was like scott on one side me on another and it was kind of like they each had their own color scheme it was kind of blue versus red oh what was the video politics was it a little versus kind of thing? Yeah, a little bit. It was like playing for fun versus playing in a tournament.

Perfect. Scott out on the park versus me at the PPA tournament. Yeah. Nice timing. Thank you. Yeah, timing's good. If anybody needs a thumbnail, time will do it for you and he won't want you to be brutal afterwards. Be brutal. He will accept harassment. I can't wait for someone to just absolutely say this

the worst thing ever to you afterwards. Like not even about the thumbnail. Yeah. Just like, dude, honestly, you're just like the ugliest person I've ever met in my life. Okay. That was, that was brutal. Be brutal. Okay. This has nothing to do with the thumbnail, but you are just the pink eye is starting to affect your work. Okay. Yeah. You could tell you're only looking at this thing with one eye open. That's good. This is kind of nice. I get done performing. I think it was the Saturday show in Vegas.

And I guess Alan goes to the bathroom. We don't have our own bathroom. We're out amongst the public. He gets back and tells me, he's like, dude, I was just in the bathroom. Overheard two other guys talking about you, and they agreed that you were the most quick-witted comic they've ever seen perform. Really? I was like, what?

I was like, Alan, I don't even know if I believe you. I was like, I didn't even do anything. I didn't even do anything. I like that. I like the idea of like, Alan just lies every like fourth show. It just makes him something crazy. Dude, I talked to a guy out there who said he works for Kevin Hart, and he said, I ditch kevin hart for this guy yeah kevin doesn't have it anymore man yeah so i still don't know if alan was being serious or not because it was he's got

to be serious there was nothing noteworthy that i even like thought to text rachel about which i feel like i often do rachel like all right how was the show like what what made this one stand out and i was like ah i don't know because you're dialed in, dude. It's not, yeah. You think you're thinking quick-witted meaning improv. Yeah. Like the crowd work. Yeah. But maybe you're just so dialed in that even like your act is quick-witted seeming. Does that make sense? Oh yeah. Sure. Maybe. I don't know. Yeah. Maybe it wasn't the crowd work. I will say one nice thing, kind of crazy. So I've been doing a picky eaters bit and what's been kind of nice is about halfway through it, I'll ask like, do we have anyone else here who's like a picky eater sitting up close?

And maybe you came here or someone who's picky. And I've really started to enjoy asking them. So when I find a picky eater asking them like, all right, so what'd you have for dinner? Yeah. Cause I've gotten nothing but amazing answers every time. Cause like every time these people are way pickier than I am. And so they're saying like absurd things. And so one show, uh, the guy said, well, first I was like, you know, this has happened a couple of times. What'd you have for dinner?

Nothing. Like, okay, well that's anorexia. Okay, that's not what I'm talking about. Right. But he said, egg or just eggs. And I was like, just straight up eggs, no adjective. And so we could talk about that for a little bit. And then I was like, what'd you have for lunch?

And he said, pizza with no cheese. I was like about that for a little bit. Then I was like, what did you have for lunch? He said, pizza with no cheese. I was like, oh my gosh. That's a breadstick, brother. That is just bread and marinara. The very next night, I asked the girl, you're the picky eater, what did you have for dinner? She goes, pizza with no cheese. No way. Two in a row?

It's a Nevada thing. I don't know what it is. I've never heard that before. I got it two nights in a row. The only two people I talked to about it. Are they just taking it off? Are they finding, are they ordering it with no cheese? I don't know. Can you order pizza with no cheese? It seems like an expensive way to get breadsticks. Yeah, I don't know. I should have asked that. I didn't ask that. I was kind of just... Pizza with no cheese is crazy. I was appalled both times. Yeah. I think I was giving my heart... I don't even know what jokes I made. Just like,

how do you order other things? Can I get some nachos, no cheese? Right. You're just having chips. What else do you order? Cheeseburger, no bun, no cheese, no ketchup, no mustard. So you just want the burger. Well, I want all... Yes. Yeah, sure. But like I said, no bun. Can I get a taco

with no meat, no cheese? Just the... Just the lettuce in the shell? The tortilla, yeah. Yeah, sure. And can you crumple that tortilla up? A crunchy tortilla, just crumple it up and make it into nachos with no cheese. Thank you.

So just a ground up tortilla, yeah. That reminds me too, I feel like we got a lot of feedback from former current Chick-fil-A workers. They're like, oh, you can ask for a percentage. I do it all the time. Yeah. And they were like, we can't put sauce on there for you, but I have been asked to do that before. That one felt like a little bit of a mixed

response. Oh, you saw some of each? I will do crazier things than whatever you guys ever mentioned. Other people are like, yeah, we don't usually do the sauce thing. So a little bit of half and half there, which you can ask for. Hey, that's fine. You can go 50-50.

I mean, I knew that like the LeBron was always a thing. You know, LeBron James is a full name. He's like Daryl Strawberry. Yeah, it's known as one word, but like the LeBron, at least in the K-Life world, I don't know if that's like a thing. Chick-fil-A workers, if you ever heard of LeBron, let us know, but it was Sprite and Powerade or Lemonade and Powerade together.

I think it should be a thing. If not, Ghosties, let's do our thing. Do thing do your thing i accidentally one time so i went to order the lebron like what is in that and so i was like uh it's powerade and lemonade incorrectly ordered it end up discovering oh my gosh power lemonade is way better than whatever sprite combination oh yeah isn't lebron don't worry about sprite yeah. Yeah. Powered lemonade is fantastic. Interesting. I like the carbonation, I think. Okay. Okay. But I think I've had both, but I think I prefer the carbonation.

Yeah. Personally. Hey, personally. Yeah. Personal pref. Okay. Anyway, have you ever heard of LeBron, Tymon? Haven't.

You're a Chick-fil-A addict. No. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. Yeah. I should try it. You should try it.

Yeah. LeBron-y. Something else that happened, we were in the Uber to the golf course, and we were talking about electric vehicles or something. And so one of the guys, one of Trey's friends, is sharing a story about how he was trying to tell his wife about the Ford Lightnings.

And he's like, yeah, you know, lightning, it's all electricity. And I guess his wife thought he was just saying like, yeah, lightning is, you know, all electricity. She's like, yeah, obviously I know how like. Yeah. Benjamin Franklin figured that out a long time ago. Yeah, lightning was all electric. And she's like, yeah, I mean, it's electricity, but yeah, I understand what you're saying. Yeah.

And so we're like laughing about this and whatever. And then our Uber driver who hasn't said anything the whole time just goes, women are so dumb. The guy who's like, uh, wasn't really the point of the story. He hadn't said a word all the time. Yes. Women are so dumb.

That's amazing. So stupid. That's a difference in natural, natural occurrence and EV the idiots have I ever told the story about the Hush Shot I don't know

it doesn't ring any bells this is one of those like might be funnier just to TJ and I than anything but we were in an Uber and integrated one time going to Dairy Queen of all places because Ian is obsessed with Dairy Queen and they don't have it in Hawaii. The coops love Dairy Queen. Really? Most people. It's a really good spot for ice cream and like whatever. Anyway. So it's like a tradition. Now we go to Dairy Queen, every integrated. That's fun. Um,

so literally we're like, we have to take an Uber to get to Dairy Queen and we're in this car. Uh, Ian's trying to talk, you know, we're in this brand new ian's trying to talk you know we're in this brand new suburban ian's talking to this guy all about it and stuff and um he's like and this guy's whatever some kind of eastern european and uh he says something like yeah and i also have f450 for the hush shot and we're like the and and and at first, we kind of just let it go and then he mentioned Hush Shot again and I was like, okay, so what's the F-454?

What are you saying? He's like, Hush Shot. And I was like, I still don't know. And eventually I finally just go, oh, got it. And so, you know, it was one of those things where it's like, I don't need to know four times. I'm not going to ask a bunch of times.

Brain burp. I got it. But yeah, eventually, like, we got out of the car and I was like, did you guys understand what he was? And TJ was dying laughing. He's like, no, I was thinking the same thing you were, man. And TJ's got one of those like silent laughs. Yeah.

And so he was just dying laughing in the backseat. Didn't even know it. Like he was in the third row back there, just dying at the hush. That's what he kept asking. Yeah. And so he was just dying laughing in the backseat. I didn't even know it. Like he was in the third row back there, just dying at the hot shot. Uh, that's what you kept asking. Yeah. Now when you spell it, yeah. I want to make sure you and I spell it the same way. How do you spell it? And Ian wasn't saying anything. Ian Ian's worked in like a car dealership forever. And so you know what four fifties are for probably help us out. And so finally Ian's like, I think he was saying hot shot. I was like, I don't. Okay. So I'm supposed to know what that means. What do you use that for? Uh, apparently it's like being like a truck driver, like trailing, like pulling heavy machinery around

or something. Hotshot drive. I don't know. Something like that. Somebody will know what I'm talking about. Ian's just making stuff up, but yeah, it's just kind of an inside joke now where, you know, it's just a classic Uber driver miscommunication with the hot shot. You know what? So yeah, TJ and I will be like, you drive the hot shot? Women are so stupid. They don't even know what the hot shot is. A hot shot driver

is an expert at delivering small, time-sensitive loads that need to be delivered with a specific time frame. Sounds like me every morning. Rachel, time-sensitive loads that need to be delivered with a specific time frame. Sounds like me every morning. Rachel, time-sensitive loads. Yeah, so that's just what it is. Okay.

Cool. The Hush Shot? Hush Shot Truckers. Yeah, the Hush Shot. Freelance owner-operators who own their vehicles and find their loads on load boards. Load boards? Huh. You checked the load board this morning?

It was pretty fun. So Rachel did her homework and she found some of the best teams in the area, happily playing each other. And it was really cool. It was really fun. I'm very impressed by Rachel. I mean, we were in there for 30 seconds. We watched like two rallies and she was like, wow, I got to look up

where number 14 is going. Oh, really? Just like immediately identified the best player on the court, end up looking her up. And I was like, you can already tell. She's like, oh, yes, that girl is a stud. She's one of the best high school volleyball players I've ever seen. Oh, my God. No way.

Look her up. This girl's only 17, and she plays for the U.S. National 19 and under team. So I was like, wow, you were right. Wow. Holy cow. And it was fun. It was like this high school girl has probably like a 32 inch vertical or something. It was crazy to watch. What? It was nuts. What? She was up there, dude. That's crazy. Yeah. Uh, that's like higher than

mine. That's what was so crazy. I was like, Holy cow. I mean, she's like jumping higher than Brad is. So, so after a little bit, you could also tell like she stood out big time. Yeah, it took me, you know, slightly longer. But it's like, oh, yeah, she's just so much higher than everyone else. Like no one can get up to her level. Cool. Where did they play? What was the teams?

So they do. I guess this is more common in maybe big schools or big cities, but it was called like a triangular thing. Kind of like a round robin of three teams? Yeah, I'd never heard of this in southwest Missouri. So it was St. James, St. Teresa, and Blue Valley North, I think. Okay. Thing. Kind of like a round robin of three teams? I'd never heard of this in Southwest Missouri. So it was St. James, St. Teresa, and Blue Valley North, I think. Okay. Were all playing each other.

I could have those kind of wrong. Who was the stud? Or where were they from? She was from Blue Valley North. Kansas. Let's go. Let's go, Kansas. Let's go, Kansas.

Ah! Cool. But yeah, it was like crazy high-level volleyball. I mean, it seemed like we were trying to look up the roster and look up their like instagrams and stuff and yeah i will say i was not looking up their instagram just for clarity rachel was looking up their instagrams i was not looking up i was using my second phone to look up their instagram rachel's trying to figure out where they're all going to college it was like pretty much every girl on the court is going to play college volleyball wow so it was really really impressive and really fun yeah

just watch a volleyball it was fun yeah rachel was so excited she loved it and i had a good time too it was really impressive and it's just fun to go and watch and like experience something with somebody who's passionate about it yeah yeah you know it doesn't matter what it is i can get into it at least somewhat you know what i mean yeah and i'm not being dragged there it's like i can appreciate this i've played this i like i can't appreciate as much as r Rachel can. She knows when some setter is doing something really crazy. She has to explain a lot to me still. But yeah, I like it. That's what I'm saying, though, is that

yeah, she can explain stuff to you. That's fun. Cool. That's fun. That is fun. I have a note on here that just says, thank you for buying merch, Ghosties. Yeah, Ghosties did their thing. Ghosties did their thing. It's been awesome to see how many people, you know, we re-released all the old merch

fun so yeah just thank you for all the ghosties for supporting us in that way it's been really

cool to see thanks ghosties Brad do you have a review of the week you want to share? No doubt. No doubt I do. My review of the week

is coming from jmcmunn9. Go for it. Is that right with you? I got Bailey Elizabeth on my mind. That was a good one, too. Crazy coincidence led to favor... Favorite podcast. Favorite podcast. Crazy coincidence led to favor dot dot dot favorite podcast crazy coincidence led to favorable outcome hey Jake and Brad

this is also Jake and I wanted to share my ghosty origin story with you both I had seen a little bit of jean shorts and I always liked it but I never knew much more than that that was until the next few months I heard my younger sister and my mom constantly laughing with their headphones in and whispering about the funny Brad and Jake about the funny Brad and Jake

about the funny Brad and Jake said. For reference, my older brother is best Oh my gosh. Sorry, guys. I'll just be done. I was quit. You guys get it. No. For reference, my older brother and best friend is also named Brad making us the original Brad and Jake in our

family. Not anymore. Now, every day I was hearing about the new things Brad and Jake were up to while being very confused every time they would talk about Jake, triplet, in front of me. I wasn't sure if I would listen at first, but after learning this coincidence, I had to check it out.

I have been a dedicated listener ever since. I relate with you all in such different ways. Brad as a musician, Jake as a former sheltered kid, and Tymon as a homeschooler. Dang, three for three. Yeah. Tymon as a homeschooler. Dang, three for three. Yeah. Tymon as a homeschooler.

Your comedic timing and sense of humor always make me laugh and keep me laughing for long after. The way you blend clean comedy with sports is very unique. I've never really clicked with most clean comedy shows. They just weren't for me. But you guys have found a way to make it feel so authentic and wholesome while also making it hilarious. Brad, you're an inspiration as a father. I have a lot of respect for the way you raise your kids. My life. I honestly never knew that a podcast could have such a tight knit community, but here we are. Ghosties are some of the most incredible people there are. And if you're on the fence about listening to this show, I can't remake.

Oh, recommend it enough. I can't remake a knock. I can't recommend that. Hush shot. Love. It doesn't say love, but it just says Jake McMunn,

Jake McMunn. Thank you for taking the time to write all that out. Really appreciate you did. That's awesome. If that's what homeschoolers eventually write like, then sign me up for homeschooling my kids forever, because my gosh, it's a nice review. Well done, Jake McMunn.

My review from Bailey Elizabeth says, can I give this 10 stars? No, but you can rate us on Spotify as well. I'm a new ghostie fan. I don't know why I'm talking this way. Yeah, I'm going to give her advice. So I'm a new ghosty fan. I don't know why I'm talking this way. Yeah, I'm going to give her her advice. So, I'm a new ghosty fan. So grateful I gave this a shot.

Oh, hot shot. A hot shot. I started with correct opinions and thought Jake was hilarious and needed to give this podcast a try. I will never look back. Between Brad, Jake, and Tymon, dot, dot, dot, dot, dot, dot.

Lots of laughter and fun. We are best friends and you don't even know it. I have listed the episode where you bleeped Tymon out like ten times because I die laughing each time. What was the bleep for Tymon? It was for that girl's name. Like, what name could that be?

Like, give me three guesses. I can only think of Oh, that's funny. I can only think of one. That's great. Uh, thanks for putting on a podcast. It's entertaining and just a blast. You guys are funny, relatable, and simply the best. Thanks for all you do.

I was going to say, yeah, writing that personal. Also, Bailey Elizabeth is going nuts on the ampersands and the formatting of this. Oh, it goes to ampersand amp semicolon you know sometimes like websites do that it's weird why do they do it why have we not figured that out this is like a y2k bug figure out the ampersand yeah it's not ampersand imp semicolon how many times do you think you've used ampersand in your life I would say like between 70 and 80. Really? About the amount, yeah. I bet I could count them on one hand. Try.

Yeah, four. Four times. Well, I didn't see your hand move, so mission failed. Yeah, I always just A and D. A and D is quicker for me than going shift seven? Are you for me than going shift. Shift. Seven. Is it sick?

Are you kidding me? Shift. No way. No way. When have I done that? You an ampersand guy time? Definitely not. No,

no. Time is just a letter in. Yeah. Yeah. Apostrophe in. Yeah. We'll go there and then play pickleball with Midge. Um,

Bailey, Jake McMahon, thank you for the reviews. Always appreciate it. Yeah. Um, Brad, do you have a jingle or we just,

I have a ghosty submitted jingle. Fun. Um, so for the longest time, I think I even mentioned this probably four weeks ago, or maybe it was four months ago. I'm terrible with dates, but,
