Jake and Brad. I'm starting it out. Whoa. On my way here, I was getting onto Shawnee mission Parkway and I saw a guy holding a strange sign. Okay. I was first like,

Oh, I feel bad for this guy. He's, he must be just like, like looking for money and stuff. But I look closer and I was like, this can't be like this. Something's something.

Okay. Something's strange here. I like this. I've sent the picture to jake all right i'm gonna click on it now um okay first impression a very well done sign that's what i was thinking yeah like it's like is it printed like he went to he went to kinko's no no no it looks hand-drawn but it's like very like good artistry and like it's black on the interior, and then white, like if it was a white stroke. Yeah, I looked at it, I was like, that's well done.

Yeah. Too well done. Oh, okay. Okay. Okay, now I'm actually reading it and understanding it. How many words are we talking here? Like, long sentence, or just two words? I would say medium sentence.

Okay. I just want weed. Sometimes they're just like, I'm not going to lie. Just need money to get drunk. Going to spend it on booze, to be honest. So part of that, pretty warm. Okay. And I do use the term warm on purpose.

But I will say there's no call to action here. It's just kind of a non sequitur. Warm like he peed his pants or something. No warm. Like, um, like you were close. Oh, okay. Um, non, no non sequitur. Just like, no, it is just kind of a non sequitur.

There's no call to action. There's no like need this, want this. It's just, Hey, I like, I like beer. That's a good guess. Is it? No. So you were warm because the word weed is in it. Really?

Yeah, so you nailed that right off the bat. And you were warm, Brad. Warm. You were warm with the weed word. Okay, are we using warm like in a different? I'm saying you were warm. Hot weed. Hot weed. Hot weed.

Coming in hot with my weed. I'd say that's on the right track of like, yeah, he's not asking for anything. But it's... I'd say this is more of a confession maybe. I'm hot for weed. No. Mine got a little cold here. Okay, okay. Is the word hot in there? No, but you're warm with weed. No. Mine got a little cold here. Okay, okay.

Is the word hot in there? No, but you're warm with weed. Warm. Fire. Whoa, whoa, whoa. And this is like... Fire weed. This is like...

No, no, no. Hold on. There's some words in between. I would say the vibe is like... Fired because I smoked weed. Oh, man. Would you say would say the vibe is like fired because i smoked weed oh man would you say that's the vibe time sure yeah and like what he's writing a sign he's going ah geez ah geez oh man i i just want some fire weed no no there's words in between that's kind of a call to action though. I know! It's hard!

Oh, man. Fired for weed. Maybe he's doing this. I'm just... No, he's not itchy. He's looking at his pockets. I was looking at my pockets too. I just don't have a jacket on or anything. I thought you thought I was itching myself.

No, no, no. I get some poison. I need one of those weeds. You were looking in your pockets here. Whoa, whoa, yeah, yeah. A lot of pockets on this thing. So many pockets. Oh, man. The fire took my weed.

Oh. Is that it? Yeah, yeah. I guess in a way. In a sense. Maybe. Yeah, I don't know. The fire took my weed.

Like he was like his house got burnt down. That's what I said. Yeah, yeah. That's what I said. Yeah, that's what you're saying. Okay. Maybe we give Brad, um, like the,

the phrase, but then like, the thing is like left blank. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Um, blank my weed.

Lost, lost my weed in a fire. Oh, lost my weed. Pretty much. Ding, ding, ding,

ding. Lost my, the way it said is just so funny though. Oh man, lost my weed in a much. Ding, ding, ding, ding. Lost my... The way it's said is just so funny, though. Oh, man. Lost my weed in a series of small fires. Oh, a series? Because of how he smokes them. Oh.

He's a funny guy. He's a funny guy. That's pretty good. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. I got it. 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 eating fast food on repeat. So come along, let's have some fun, and go ahead, get on your feet,

because it's the Ghost Rubs Podcast. Ghost Rubs Podcast. Every Monday morning, we're taking ground. Ghost Rubs Podcast. Ghost Rubs Podcast. Brad and I are pumped I think I would dare to say I could do an entire episode

Just on the things that happened to me last Thursday If I needed to I'm not saying I'm going to do that I dare you I dare you Let's do it And I know you also have a ton of stuff to talk about as well. Yeah, but I don't want to do any of that.

I want to just do Thursday. We got another episode we record. Well, I have so much other stuff to talk about too. Okay. Honestly, well, I'm about to immediately break what I just said because I want to talk about what we did yesterday. Okay, let's do it. And then the rest will be Thursday.

Basically, yesterday, Brad texted me and was like, hey, you want to meet up in Lenexa, get a little work done, whatever. I'm about to leave, and Brad's like, hey, toss in some swim trunks, maybe some gym clothes. Afterwards, we might go to Lifetime Fitness

to meet up with Harrison Pollard, a good friend, former roommate, and Will Severance. Yep. I was like, okay. Toss those two things in. We go to Panera. We have a good time, former roommate, and Will Severance. Yep. I was like, okay. Toss those two things in. We go to Panera. We have a good time.

Go to Lifetime Fitness. And it was kind of like a recruiting visit because Will and Brad. Now Will made it. Will leaned into that so hard. I was not meaning to recruit you for anything. I did mention. Sorry for interrupting. I did mention, sorry for interrupting. Um, I did mention like,

you can't, you can't feed into it. All right. Leave that out. That's going to be funny when you bleep it out. Um, make, make a note of that. Believe it. Um, I had mentioned to will the other day when we were at lifetime, like how much more fun would it be if we had even more guys that were in yeah we're at lifetime with that's all i said and he was fired up about that yeah but i don't think it wasn't like hey i'm gonna invite jake today so that he can see how good like you've been to lifetime once already like yeah you know it's like anyway well it was putting a hard sell on us and so but it kind of i mean he gave he was like giving me a tour of like here are the pickleball courts which did seem nice he You know, here's the rock wall. We went and shot some hoops.

Brad knocked me out in pig. And then Will was like, hey, we need to, we need to get going soon. We got to do the three heats. And the three heats is something that he said his wife actually came up with,

but he very much prescribes to. And it is hot tub, sauna, steam room. The three heats. The three heats. It's great. If you're into that. I'm not a big hot tub guy in general, but of course I'm going to do it. Hop in the hot tub, and it's fine. It's whatever. Yesterday was a warm day. It wasn't like an escape from the cold or anything. Pretty warm day. Nice and humid. Get in the hot tub, and we go straight

from the hot tub to the sauna i thought i'd been in a sauna before i don't think i have because that was a unique experience yeah you uh yeah you acted like you've never been in a sauna before you walked in and it was like like i don't know if you've ever been persecuted in your life you know what i mean like like oh my gosh i know the the, the social awareness kind of went out the door too. Cause there were other people in there and it was a silent sauna. And I just walked in. I was like, Oh my gosh. The nice part is that most of the people, you're just dying. Like most people have headphones on, so you don't have to worry that

much about that. I did notice that headphones on time. Have you ever been in a sauna? Yeah, I think so. Yeah. I thought so too. Yeah. so did Jake. Yeah, it's like mildly hotter than like, you're talking about like July basically is a sauna, right? There was a gauge in there. What was that, 160, 170? It was 170. And Will said that the other one in the locker room is 180, which is the one I usually go to.

Wow. I don't know. It felt the same though. I'm not trying to act like, dude, you didn't even get the hard sauna. It felt the same to me. It was, yeah, just, I mean, 170 degrees. It feels like a dangerous temperature to be in.

And we just walked in it straight after getting out of the hot tub. And there was no workout before it. There's no workout after it. It's just like, hey, just in the middle of your workday, just bake. Just bake in this hot, hot room. And I felt like such a wimp. I was like, are you guys lips feeling weird? Everyone's like, no.

Your whole body was like decomposing. It felt like my lips were like shriveling up or something. It felt like they were getting smaller, like a raisin. Yeah, it was like, I bet, how long do you think we were in there nine minutes you think so yeah i was gonna guess five minutes really but it but i could just tell like i was like jake's gotta get out of here like i i i think eventually i was like hey guys let's get let's you guys ready to go i think jake's dying a little bit here so we leave the sauna and oh i can't tell you oh yeah you want to talk about Will in the sauna?

What? Oh, just his workouts? Yeah. You just started doing sit-ups in the middle. Yeah. Yeah. Will's just funny, but no, I was going to say, and maybe you were going to say this, like right when you got out of the sauna, you remember what you said? No. That was my favorite thing. I told that, I told this to Catherine and her mom last night. They were at dinner and I was like, yeah, Jake got out of the sauna. He goes, it feels like that should be illegal for somebody to be able to do that. I mean, it was crazy. You were just verbally processing the entire thing. You're like, that is not safe.

That's wrong. Like, as we were in the sauna, you're like, so, like, what does this do for you? Like, how is this supposed to make you? Why do people do this? There's got to be a better way. There's got to be a better way. There's got to be a better way. Oh, my gosh. So, yeah, we leave.

And that was sweet, sweet relief. Yeah. Leaving that sauna and feeling just like room temperature again. That felt amazing. But it's time to go to the steam room. Yeah, it's only two heats. You got to go for the third. Got to go for three heats.

I don't know what a steam room is. The way they're describing it, I'm imagining like a greenhouse kind of thing, which I guess is kind of accurate. Tell me more about your greenhouse idea. Like I was just imagining a lot of just like, you know, condensation and, you know, humidity in the air. Yeah. And then I think Will or you said that like, yeah, there's like eucalyptus in the air.

It's like, oh yeah. Bonafide greenhouse vibes. I'm Yeah. Cause they were like, it's not as hot as the sauna. I was like, oh yeah. Great. Yeah. Yeah. Tell me what I'll, I like to hear your thoughts on this, but Will was like, oh dude, the steam room is going to be way more of a shock to Jake than the sauna. And I was like, I disagree. I think the steam room is easier. Who was right? The steam room was hell on earth. The steam room is the worst place

I've ever been. It's the worst I've ever felt. Like without being in any actual pain. Oh my gosh. It's the worst I've ever felt on earth. It was so bad i mean it just oh dude it was so hot it was so impossible to breathe it was like it was like i was getting strangled by the devil himself and when you combine those two things does that motivate

you that motivate you tell others about the lord oh yeah turn or burn like yeah honestly yeah more evangelism should take place in a steamer. You think this is bad, brother? This is hot. Yeah. What if I said the gnashing of teeth? Right. We threw that in. Dude, it was unbelievable. I mean, just like instantly you can't breathe out of your mouth. It's

impossible. It feels like someone has a wet rag up to your mouth and it is eucalyptus. I will say that. Yeah, but I mean, you just can't breathe out of your mouth. It's awful and everyone just for will's naked first of all that was unnecessary that that was part of the the devil yeah yeah um and then also just everyone's like jake how's marriage been not right now you did you said like i can't think about anything else right now you're talking about this later and you know, being very considerate, it's like, all right, hey, Jake, you're the leader here. We leave when you say leave.

And you go, I'm not going to be the one to leave first. Nope, I'm not going to do it. I'm not going to do it. I played high school sports. So I still have some mental toughness. Absolutely. So, yeah, we're in there for about like four or five minutes at this point. And it, I mean, it is seriously this, like, I've never felt just like, um, it felt dangerous.

Like how quickly I was just sweating from everywhere. I could feel it running down my leg hair. I'm dripping off of my nose. My eyes can't fully open. You know, I'm just doing like this. Like, what are we doing? I don't think that's all sweat to make you feel better. Oh really?

Cause it's steam. So it's like, oh, I guess it's getting on your skin and then falling off of it. Yeah, or it's like dripping from like, yeah. That's another thing. We get about five minutes in and all this steam starts to get on the ceiling. Hot. Yeah. And then it starts to drip and fall on your back.

Just, ah, gosh, what is that? You're like sizzling bacon back there. Just sizzling on my back. Yeah, we do about five minutes worth. And then, minutes worth and then dude and then it just starts going and like what is that what is that will goes that was phase one brother i was like what and there's just so much steam is being pumped in this room i mean

three tons of steam it was already in there. It's being tossed in this room. I mean, yeah, it eventually becomes like you can't see anybody. I couldn't see the guy five feet from me. Right. The guy in the corner. Yeah, he's like, that was just phase one, brother. Yeah, Will's like spread eagle.

Yeah, it's just phase one. It sucked. Oh, man. It sucked. But how'd you feel afterwards so afterwards um i will say we uh toweled off i jumped in the pool that was nice did you yeah that felt really good yeah um i actually got to the pool i already felt bad i walk out of the men's locker room the same time like the only young woman in this entire pool walks out of the women's locker room. Yeah.

All eyes on both of us because we're walking. I'm walking next to the girl in a bikini. Okay. And I'm feeling rock bottom. So like, can you guys just not look at me right now? You're just like waddling to the pool. Well, because it is so it's, it's a very, you have to go so slow. Like if your feet are wet,, do not walk very fast.

Yeah, I'm feeling bad. And then to top it off, we both tried to get in the same lane of pool. And I'm like, oh, sorry. Oh, I'm sorry. I'll go down. I'll go down. I just don't care. I don't have a care in the world.

And then I go over and hop in. So then after that, I stopped by the cafe, me, you, and Harrison talk for like 30 minutes. It was really good. And I was like, this is the part I get used to this. This is awesome. I really like just talking with you guys. And then I drove home and on the drive home, I thought I was going to, I thought I was going to get in a car crash. I felt so exhausted and so tired. I was like, how do people ever do this before work? I didn't even work out. All I did was just get in a hot room for a cumulative 14 minutes. Yeah.

The three heats will do it to you. I will say that. Like I told you, like last week when I was with Will, after we got done with it, I was like, dude, I'm feeling a little bit like lightheaded. Oh, that's right. And that makes you feel a little better. Yeah. Yeah.

So I do think that like the steam room at the end, you got to be careful about how much you're doing each of them. Yeah. And I'm sure I was a little dehydrated from that and from everything so the drive home i was like this is crazy i can't believe how tired i was but then i got like a second one later i mean i ended up editing videos last night i stayed up till like probably 12 30 1 a.m and it was fine but man it was a wild ride i just i felt felt not that I need vindication from you, but when you were like, I just don't know how anybody does that and then goes to work just normally after that.

I can't imagine. I was like, I do that all the time. Someday I can't wait for you to be like, dude, I don't know how you did this podcast with three kids. Yeah. Because I had a great wife. That's the answer. I do think about that sometimes.

I'm pretty cognizant of that. Of like, yeah, I have got it nice right now. And the things I'm able to do or the freedom I have and the lack of stress I have and the sleep I'm like available to get if I wanted to get enough sleep, I could. Yeah. I try to like appreciate that as much as possible. But that was a fun day. I'm so glad we did it, though. I know that it was fun.

It's one of those things. It's yeah, it's I, I enjoy it, but it's like a weird kind of enjoyment. It's like this, like somewhat quote unquote, easy way to like work out your body. I mean, you're not truly working out like you would be exercising,

but like, yeah, it exhausts your body a little bit. And so I don't know if I truly enjoy it. Like, it's like, I got to go to the steam room, but like you feel good afterwards.

I think it's, if you know you're, it's helping you, then i can justify anything for 15 minutes exactly exactly um i just can't i still can't imagine though like the idea like let's say i join i really would like to get in the habit of swimming it's a low impact great workout great cardio whatever how fun would be to swim laps which is an exhausting workout in then then sauna, then steam, I'm going to be worthless. Yeah. I mean, I'm going to have to carbo-load every night at dinner. Sometimes it's nice to just go from the pool to the hot tub.

Just a quick little relax the muscles once you're done with the pool kind of thing and get out and you're good. Yeah. Yeah, man. Pretty wild. It was a wild day. Yeah, I mean, we were in it was a wild day. Yeah. I mean, we were, yeah, we were in that cafe or whatever after it's like, this is crazy.

I, when I woke up this morning, I did not think I would be going commando in a lifetime fitness right now. I know. I'm sorry. I was even looking back at our text. I was like, I thought I told you. No, I didn't. I didn't say like, Hey, we're probably going to go.

Yeah. To the spa, you know, take a schvitz. Oh, I was fine. I like how the Jewish people say, listen, I just need a schvitz oh i was fine i like how the jewish people say let's i just need a schvitz what is that exactly i think it's like a steam oh really or maybe just like basically what we did like just like kind of like a detoxing day i just need a schvitz yeah go into one of those will was telling me yeah when i was asking i was like what is the purpose of this and he's like yeah you sweat out toxins yeah i was looking i didn't see any

on the ground. You were looking for your toxins. Yeah. It's like, I mean, there's a mark of where my foot was. It is interesting. I'm sure that ghosties will provide us with some interesting feedback on saunas and steams and stuff, but yeah, there's lots of health benefits to it that I don't know the depths of, but pretty fun. So, um, I'm glad you came. It was good good good good yeah oh man it was hell on earth that made me laugh so hard it was dude it was not fun in the moment i was i didn't want to talk i want to breathe i couldn't breathe and honestly that like take this in the nicest way possible but that is so fun for me to watch because you never like you're good at everything like you're just like

you're like yeah i'm not phased. Everything's fine. No problem. Everything. No, I'm not stressed. You know, whatever. This terrible thing happens. I have to pay $50,000 in taxes.

That's fine. Life's good. I'm just lucky to have that much money to spend on it. You know? You know, like, you're like, whatever. And so to watch you be like, dude, I can't even talk to you right now. Like, no, this just sucks. There's no silver lining.

This is just brutal. That's how I felt. Yeah. And yeah, I'm not one to like admit that I'm tired either. And I was like, I got to admit, like I'm exhausted after this. Well done, guys. The funny thing was I was really tired like when we met at Panera beforehand. Really?

And then I think just hanging out with you guys and getting some social time was fun. So, and I mean, we did work out. We shot half-court shots a few times. I mean, just working out the arms. That's true. I took my hoodie off. Yes. I stayed in the pants, but yeah, I did take my hoodie off.

You stayed in the pants. I got a little workout in. Yeah. So yeah, great, great content. Yeah. Okay, let's talk about Thursdays. What do you want to talk about? Let's talk Thursdays.

So Thursday, you went somewhere. First things first, Brad was, was like, Hey, I got to do a podcast with some of my friends. Can I use the studios? Like, yeah, of course. Yes. I purposely did not ask you what you were doing because I wanted to just talk about on the podcast. So I still, to this day, I don't know what you did. I don't know who you were talking to. Okay. But I, I did overhear you while I was packing up and getting ready to leave for the airport. Okay. So you like, you didn't hear everything. You just heard like certain bits and pieces.

Sometimes I would hear like an entire thing. And then other times I would hear just like a sentence. So the first thing I heard, I was in like the guest bedroom closet and I heard you go, yes, yes, exactly. Get like 14 kids that look exactly like you. What does that mean? i don't remember get 14 kids that look exactly oh yes okay so the whole thing was so so my friend mark has a podcast with one of his buddies called abraham's wallet check it out it's it's a financial podcast but it's it's pretty cool it's's not like a stuffy financial podcast.

Anyway, Christian guys. Anyway, Mark was the one. I brought him up, whatever it was, a month, two months ago about half-baked ideas. And so he was like, hey, what if you, me, and Chad, my friend Chad Masters, what if the three of us got together and just did a bonus Abraham's Wallet episode about half-baked ideas? Everyone just brainstormed some and bring, bring it to the table. And so I believe this one, dude, he's, Mark is so good at these ideas. Um, this one was called funeral thespians. And so,

and so basically it was like, you know, either, either, uh, at your own funeral or at somebody else's funeral, you could hire somebody to, to do something pretty mysterious. And so, and so like, he's like, you know, at your own funeral, like you could hire some like really like gangster mafia mobster looking guys to just, you know, walk up to your casket for like big thug thug guys and just pour out a little bit of, you know, whatever it is that mobsters drink and say, we're going to miss you boss. And then walk out or, you know, and then, and I think the thing with the 14 kids was, Hey, if you, if you don't like somebody else and you know, they die like, uh, which this is whatever, this is dark. We're joking obviously, but like, um, pretend like he has a second family.

And so basically hire out this really attractive woman. That's just really distraught about this guy dying. And then there's all these little kids with her that look exactly like you. And so that's what I think. Yeah. I'm glad I remember that. So first I was like, I have no idea what that is.

Yes. Hire 14 kids that look exactly like you. Like funeral mistress. That's like the side business, basically. Right, right. That's so funny. And so then that kind of catapulted all over the place. And I mean, just funny ideas like that.

Another sentence I heard out of context. Maybe this is a follow-up on funeral thespians. I don't know. Okay. But you go, I mean, I wouldn't want it to look like I'm committing adultery. I think something along the lines of like, yeah, I think it was like, uh, I think I said something like, oh yeah. Like you just had a smoke show of a woman come to your funeral or something like that. And, and Mark's like, well, my fantasy does not involve

some other woman, you know? And I was like, oh, whatever. I don't know. Yeah. I heard that. I was like, what kind of podcast is Brad on right now? I don't want it to look like I'm committing adultery. Oh, yeah. One part I did hear about is you pitching an idea, and it was called Tool Plant. Tool Plant. I wrote down Tool Plant is great. Tool Plant is a great idea. Tell everybody about Tool Plant.

Okay, so essentially the half-baked idea is, let's just say you find a woman, you see a woman that's like attractive and you want to somehow get some good attention towards you of like, I need to make a good first impression on her. You hire somebody else out to be a tool, to be, to be just a jerk that comes up. He can, you guys can coordinate however you want, whether it's, he's being mean to the management of the restaurant that you're in.

Maybe he's being mean to her. Or he's, yeah, he's being a jerk to her, whatever. You come in, save the day. Yeah. that you're in. Maybe he's being mean to her. Yeah, he's being a jerk to her, whatever. You come in, save the day in however you want. And, you know, of course, Mark was like, and I think you could hire different levels of spiciness to this. Like for the right amount of money, you could absolutely beat the heck out of this guy. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Or you could just get in a physical or a verbal altercation with this guy and back him down or something. Yeah. And then all of a sudden you're like, I'm so sorry, miss. You know, can I sit with you and keep you safe for a while? Whatever. And all of a sudden you're like, I'm so sorry, miss, you know, can I sit with you and keep you safe for a while, whatever. And all of a sudden, you know, tool tool is gone and you're, you're left to,

you know, save the day with this beautiful woman. Yeah. And so I think, I think Mark was even like, that could be another branch of funeral thespians. Something like that. Yes. Um, you like that one? Yeah. I really like to a plant. Yeah. To a plant. It's great. Uh, the last thing that I heard you like that one yeah i really like tool plant yeah tool plant's great uh the last thing that i heard you guys just all talking about was you were you were deciding the

equity split of your of some company okay um but you're really getting in the weeds of like all right what if so-and-so takes 85 i'll take two and a half you take two and a half i don't remember that very well i think i was just like listen because Mark was like, if anybody's listening to this and they want to run with any of these ideas, please feel free. And I immediately was like, no, no, no, no, no. I get some. Yeah, we need to get some of this. If it goes multi-million, you know, something like that. Maybe that's what it wasn't.

Yeah, let me see if I have any more notes on anything here. Let's see. Season's beatings was one. Let's see. Seasons Beatings was one. What's that? Where it's a boxing club where at the end of each season you get to fight a seasonal character. So the whole time you're like training.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. For example, you know, like,

it's just like your motivation. Like, you only get to fight the final boss if you go to, like, five out of every seven days. Season's beating. And so, like, February comes around. They hire, here comes Cupid, and you get to fight Cupid. And then March, leprechauns, or like July 4th, you got a guy dressed like Uncle Sam. Wow. So sometimes you fight the good guys.

Yeah, I was going to say, maybe you fight Saddam. I don't know. Arbor Day, there's a tree out there, you got a guy dressed like Uncle Sam. Wow. So sometimes you fight the good guys. Yeah, I was going to say, maybe you fight Saddam. I don't know. Arbor Day, there's a tree out there. You just get to beat down a tree. Santa, a turkey, a pumpkin. Or maybe you get to fight emissions for Arbor Day. Yes. You really want to take down the good guys. Just F and all.

Yeah. So, season's beatings. Let's see. Oh, your blank friend. And basically it's just, you bring it with you. Somebody, when you need support in a situation you're not comfortable in. So like you're going to a political event and you have no idea what politics are. You just get this guy to boost you the whole time. Or like you're going to the mechanic. You got your mechanic friend with you. Yeah. That could be like a, like an Ellen in your ear thing. Like you hire out like

a phone, a friend thing. Like I have the world's smallest earbud in my ear. Yeah, yeah. You're my mechanic. You tell me if this is a good deal or not. Great idea. I like that. Dad socks.

Because I said dads love the socks that have holes in them. You know what? Did your dad have like, I'm sure your dad has socks that don't have holes in them. Yeah, he does. It seems like my dad's always around the house just wearing the ones that have holes in the balls of his feet. I think my dad had shoes that have holes in them. It seems like my dad's always around the house, just wearing the ones that have holes in the, like the, the balls of his feet. I think my dad had shoes that had holes in them. Maybe dad's shoes is part of the brand. Yeah. But literally they're just socks that already have the holes in them. Pre-made.

In the right spots, you know? Um, Ooh, yeah. On that same note, what about pre-green DeLon Moen shoes? Great idea. Just like, like, uh, kind of like a gradient green. On the bottom of the shoe, it's pretty green as the top. Yeah. It starts off like that. Dude, that's, that's a great idea to do that. Yeah. That's a cool thing. Just sell dad lawnmower shoes, get air Monarchs that are gradient green because there's almost something weird about like, at some point you are going to take a shoe and make it decide this is my lawnmower shoe. It's a sad day when you're like, that used to be my best shoe. I used to love that shoe.

Yeah. I did that recently with some shoes and they're in my garage now and they're just sad. They're stinky. Yeah. Lawnmowing shoe. Yeah.

That could be nice. Yeah. Lawnmowing, yeah. Dad shoes. I don't know how good I would be at this, but I'm ready to make this a regular thing on Ghostrunners. Half-baked ideas?

Yeah, this is so fun. I have a few more. Keep going, baby. That I haven't set. These are brand new Ghostrunner originals. I don't know exactly. This is maybe a quarterbacked idea because I haven't figured out exactly what it is. I'll help.

But we're just calling it intermittent fasters. And it's literally like a workout while – like it's a speed workout while you are intermittent fasting. So you're trying to become intermittent faster while being an intermittent faster. You know what I mean? So when would you do it? While you're intermittent fasting. So you're trying to become intermittent faster while being an intermittent faster. You know what I mean? So when, when would you do it? While you're intermittent fast, just like while you're not eating. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. During your fast, you are sprinting or something like that. You're trying to do something faster than you did it the first time. I see. I see. And maybe it leads up to like 11 AM or something. Yeah. And maybe, you know, yeah, it leads up to 11 AM when you can break your fast and we can also provide the food for you.m. or something. Yeah. And maybe, you know, it leads up to 11 a.m. when you can break your fast and we can also provide the food for you. Yeah.

You know? Like the finish line has French toast sticks. Sure. It has Main Street Roasters and Good Ranchers. Another one I have was Dave Ramsey's Parents' Night Out. Okay? So, you know, Dave Ramsey's whole thing is – I don't think I'm going to be nearly as good at this as you are.

No, dude. I can already feel it. No, seriously. It's hard at first and then once you get – like I had none of these written down like 30 minutes before we started the podcast. Really? Yeah. I just like – you kind of get on a little bit of a roll with them.

Dave Ramsey's Parents Night Out – and a lot of it's all about the branding too. You got to like know. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Hey, so Dave Ramsey's whole thing, hey, when you're trying to carve off debt, you do rice and beans, beans and rice for your meals. Okay. Except the one month or one day a month where it's Dave Ramsey's Parents Night Out. Sponsored by Dave Ramsey and Ramsey Solutions.

And you go and it's all these things for a pretty affordable price, but you still get to have marital bliss. You still get to have time with just you and your spouse, but because it's so like, uh, so streamlined, you know, everyone has the same food. Everyone gets the same activities. Dave Ramsey is getting a great deal on all the food and everything. So therefore he's able to still turn a profit with this, you know, cheaper or like decently nice food options and everything. So he's still, you're, you're saving money. You're not like outspending your budget to do parents night out,

but it's nice. Um, I like it. I think they'd get behind that. Yeah. Okay. A few more, um,

trends with the Z. Uh, it's just where you can go and relive your favorite fads. So like you like, Oh, you go somewhere, you go plank, you go,

you know, do the mannequin challenge. You go, uh, throw on some, um, what are those called? Healy's Healy's. Yeah. You got the Harlem shake in one of the rooms and you just go Harlem shaking. Um, you know, whatever it is, like everyone just says, was I the whole time? And it's with a Z you said? Yeah. Uh, also with the Z got it from the streets. Okay. Okay. And this is a, this is a company. I feel like this is this is a company i feel like this is like kind of a popular thing is to steal street signs oh yeah yeah you know you walk into like a college like frat house and there's always like a street sign i bet you could make street signs and sell them got it from the streets i see you know what i mean yeah it's just legally

selling street signs okay um yeah let's see's see. Packs with the X. It's a trading card store. Okay. Okay. I don't know. That's a quarter-baked. I don't know. Just something you can have fun, like sports card store.

Just like you buy packs of cards there. Yeah. With an X. Quarter-baked idea. I don't even really know what this one meant. Prison ministry power plants. I don't know. I think it's like when you like.

You tell me. I think you generate power somehow by working don't know. I think it's like when you like... You tell me. I think you generate power somehow by working out or something. You know how you can like... Back in the day, you had those crank radios that could make some noise. You said like a wind turbine or like a river like water

propulsion energy. Yeah. Let's see. And the last one is ex-boyfriend hoodies. They're preset to smell faintly like men, and they're also pre-worn and lived. You know, like oversized. Like, oh, I just miss, you know, you can just smell,

like girls love stealing guys' hoodies because it just smells a little bit different. It smells nice. Can I take this to a three-quarters baked idea? Please. We call it Plato's hoodie. Oh, okay. Subsidiary of Plato's closet.

Yes. Very small. Mm-hmm. three quarters baked idea please we call it plato's hoodie okay subsidiary of plato's closet yes very small and all it is is just guys selling your hoodies back to them and then they will sell them back to women yeah that's it yeah play those hoodie yeah yeah yeah it's all the ones i got so that's fun yeah i know somewhere in my notes on my computer, I have a bunch of stupid ideas written down that I would, that I have at some point, but I like the idea of ghosties letting us know some of their half-baked ideas too. Yeah. And letting us riff on those.

And we could talk about it on the podcast. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I know the ones I've said before the top bottom loading washer dryer with the trap door. Yes. Which they,

they kind of went up me and they just made it all in one now. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Well, can we transition real quick into something I have in my notes here? Oh, yeah. The free restaurant you pay with ads.

That was another one I had. Oh, yeah. Sorry. Keep going. You have been, let's say, in your bag lately as far, as far as ideas go, um, like over the course of the last like four years. Yeah. Just lately. Um, if, I mean, it's been circulating around the ghost of universe, but window middle aisle timing. I don't know if you've heard this was from like episode 20 something. Yeah. Jake had the idea of like, why do we board by zone in an airplane?

Why not board by where you are in your row? And so why not board all the window people first and then the middle people and then the aisle people? And they're starting to do it on United Airlines. United finally got around to it. So Jake, once again, like is influencing the masses. We wrote down some other things that you'd influence. Shower Orange.

Shower Orange. Was like the word of the day, the Webster's dictionary or something like that. Yeah. It's got its own subreddit. People love talking about it. I think I started that in like 2011. Uh, you were early on how annoying the Whopper song was. Yeah.

Uh, and then also like Prince of Egypt has always been kind of like something that's, you know, been your brand right back here. Oh yeah. I moved it right down there. Oh yeah. It's a little tough to have in the back of meetings and stuff isn't it yeah that's like yeah so um yeah the prince of egypt thing is fun too i feel like i was always talking about how good that soundtrack was and now we're starting to see it in memes and skits everything finally so so what's what's the next one you have do you have any ideas's the next one? Do you have any ideas? The next one, I'll tell you what. Coffee?

Don't sleep on coffee. Okay. Don't sleep on... It's not a trend. If coffee gets big, you have me to thank. What kind of coffee? Main Street Rovers. Yeah, segue.

Main Street Rovers. Rovers. Rovers coffee. Not going anywhere. No way. I'll tell you that. No way. I mean, you that. No way. I mean, seriously, it seems like once a week,

one ghostie goes and visits Major Roasters in Napanee, Indiana. So keep it up, ghosties. It is cool. Keep telling us about it. Keep tagging us when it happens. But I don't blame them for wanting to visit majorroasters.com in person or online. They've got great coffee.

memento to send to main street roasters that if you do make the pilgrimage to Napanee, you get to sign the, Oh, that's kind of fun. The ghosty plaque or something. Yeah. Wouldn't that be fun? That is really fun.

I'll think about it. Yeah. So let me readjust the stash. I'm trying to think what else is next as far as just like the entire world and the landscape of pop culture um figure it out what's the opposite of being canceled being promoted okay we're going to start to see that yeah i don't know how it looks exactly but again like the pendulum always swings. Okay. It's like, so it swung really, you know, big, like cancel everybody, any old tweet, any old picture.

And now we're starting to swing back. We're starting to see less old cancellations. Do you think it's going to be specifically for people who are making a stand that's a little bit against the grain? I don't know. Okay. I don't know what the opposite. If you get canceled, it's because you don't agree with the masses or something, right? Yeah, I guess that I guess that kind of would be the opposite of being canceled. Yeah. Yeah. Being promoted for having outlandish. Yeah. Takes and tweets. Okay. Um, that's good. What else? Cell phones, self cell phones. I bet those don't go anywhere anytime soon. Like you're going to self-deprecate yourself?

Like, oh, that was a self-owned. Or is it like a cell phone? Mobile phones. Mobile phones, yes. Look out. In your mobile. Told you guys. Yeah.

Tymon, how's the pickleball game? I feel like I've been seeing some more pictures. You've been playing a little bit more. How's it going? Not a lot more, but just once with my family. Recently played with the new paddle. Oh, Friday? No, the random one Jake gave me.

Yeah, I had one from a company that was just still in a box. And I was like, here you go, Tymon. Box it up. Box it up. Cool, cool, cool. Cool, cool. Box it up. But yeah, the paddle played well I didn't

but the paddle was good the picture I saw you were across the court from your dad and he was just on the phone while playing that's a small business man in America right there that's fun Tywin we might have some work for you

later today we have some content so Brad and I were looking at a recent video we uploaded, kind of a re-upload. The life of a Chick-fil-A addict. Uploaded it to YouTube, and we saw that, you know, it didn't go viral by any means, but people always want to know, like, how much money do you make off YouTube?

So as of now, I think it's got 25,000 views. Brad was able to look and see uh that we have made 19 and 78 cents i'm sorry 1978 yes um let me let me check and make sure that's live okay let's get it up to the minute yeah um but we were saying it would be fun we want to film like an instagram story maybe with you today after the podcast we break for lunch where we like um we're like hey we want to take you guys behind the scenes and show you what it's like to be youtuber this chick-fil-a video here oh wow it got 19.78 and then kind of like mac mike wazowski so i'm like we got 19.78 and then we go to chick-fil-a and have actual cash and 19 dollars and try to spend it back at chick-fil-a and reinvest it back into the business oh dude we're rich oh we're 21 dollars and 18 cents well looky there wow for whatever reason this one is like drastically

lower than most i think it's because there's like a song in there that's like a copyright free song but they're still splitting the monetization with us or something like that. But, um, yeah, I think that'd be fun to like go in there and like with $21 exactly. And like, this is all we have. Yeah. Okay. Can you take off the, do you guys ever do like halves of tenders, halves of nuggets or like nine and a half nuggets, dump some of those fries into somebody else's bag. Yeah. I don't need all of them. Don't need all of them. Like you guys charge per fry.

Let's be honest. Yeah. That's great. Yeah, that was a funny little anecdote there. Yeah. Maybe we'll do that later. It is also interesting. In case anyone's interested in this, I don't know. We don't have to divulge every way we're making money.

But TikTok right now is paying you a lot of money for videos. Um, basically like if you make a video over one minute long, just keeping it simple for every thousand views it gets, you get $1. And so if you get a million views on a video, which is not crazy on TikTok, cause TikTok is so random, you get basically a thousand dollars for that video. We hit something similar to that on our Instagram recently. Do you have any ideas? Have you ever looked at how much we were making on those? Well, that's what I was going to say. Like in comparison, like TikTok is paying a bunch compared to other platforms. Like YouTube, you would get like eight cents. Yes, exactly. Yeah. TikTok is giving a dollar for every thousand.

What is Instagram giving? Let me see. I don't even check Instagram because I know it's nothing. I mean, we have 1.4 million views on this one month of marriage versus 10 years of marriage. And the insights on it, let's see. We've made, where is it? $26 on it. 1.4 million views, $26.

And if we had 1.4 million on TikTok, we'd make $1,400. Yeah. Isn't that crazy? It's just very interesting. So like, yeah, there's, you know, I think somebody recently was like, lifestyle's the rich and the famous, Brad.

And I was like, eh, maybe famous every once in a while, but not too rich with it so far. Yeah, I think that's why we see this de-incentivization. We are unmotivated. Let's just use that word. We're unmotivated to put a ton of time and effort into jean shorts because we're not getting paid much on YouTube. We're not getting paid much on Instagram.

TikTok's harder. We're trying to get more brand deals and stuff like that. But yeah, anyway, it's an interesting game. The whole thing is interesting. But just a fun peek behind's just an interesting game. The whole thing is interesting, but just a fun peek behind the curtain there for you. How'd you guys enjoy the peek? What'd you see? Okay, so Thursday, I leave Brad recording in here.

And also one of the things we did, Brad wanted to record the podcast with these microphones. And so we're kind of making sure he's set up. I'm like, well, if you're going to use this microphone, let me make sure all the other channels are turned down. That way there's no bleed into the microphone or whatever. Smart. Yeah. Hey, yeah, yeah.

Not smart is not turning them back up when we record an hour and 40 minutes of a bonus football podcast a few nights later. So, yeah, we sat down and at like 10 PM recorded for so long. And then I go to like upload it and we're like, Oh wow. Brad's mic was not on the whole time. Uh, time and did a little magic though. And I think it was,

it was postable. So people still commented like, and said stuff about the end of the episode. So I was like, okay, some people are listening to this entire episode still. Yeah. It's more.

Thank you. That's such a good point. That's so kind. Yeah. I felt bad, but, some people are listening to this entire episode still. Yeah. It's more. Thank you. That's such a good point. That's so kind. Yeah. I felt bad, but yeah, patrons are great. Thanks for everyone who's joined patron recently. We, uh, just as I'm talking now, just uploaded, um, our, uh, what do you want to call it? A kind of a saucy bonus episode, spicy episode.

Yeah. I think you used the word the tea at one point we spilled some tea yeah katherine joined that was fun yeah katherine joined and uh so yeah thanks for everyone who's always in the comments and yeah getting back to us on that stuff but uh thursday so i go straight to the airport and just an up and down airport experience get there running a bit late but i have tsa pre-check i've tsa clear no problem get I have TSA pre-check. I have TSA clear, no problem. Get there. They say, Oh, pre-check is not on your boarding pass. I know champagne problems, but it's like three weekends in a row that I have like a flight has been booked for me

and it doesn't have TSA pre-check. And every time like, Oh my gosh, I gotta like, I gotta text somebody about this. I always forget. Okay. And so I'm frustrated. I got to go to the back of a different line, you know, whatever. And so I'm like hustling over there. Then I get there and then I meet the most fun TSA clear agent ever. Just immediately. She starts talking to me. Like it was like, I said, tell me something fun about your life right now. But she just like, you know, I got pranked last week and I was like, Oh, okay. That's how she started the conversation. Um, you know, I got pranked last week. And so, you know, I'm kind of talking to her about that while I'm like scanning my eyeballs and everything.

And then we're walking. And she's telling me all about this. Like, I walked out to my car and someone had stuck a hot dog on my antenna. I was like, that's kind of funny. And she's like, but I just drove with it anyway. And it was banging on my windshield. And it was just so funny. I couldn't believe who did this prank and all this stuff. She's i'm not even in a prank war with anyone and so we're just laughing about how i was like i think yeah you haven't like become someone pranked the wrong person but now you're in it you got to get them back i don't know who it is you got to get them back and we were just like having the best time and she you know tsa clear they walk you to the front of the line they kind of escort you up there and i was like all right thank you she's still kind of there and then this other guy who was at the front of the line that They kind of escort you up there. And I was like, all right, thank you. She's still kind of there.

And then this other guy who was at the front of the line that I'm kind of cutting in front of, which I always kind of feel bad because I'm getting... But it's also exactly what I'm paying for with TSA Clear is to get to the front of the line. Sure. And I've never had any issues. I feel like it's always me just kind of giving a face.

It's hard. Try to be polite. Try to be nice, whatever. And this guy was not having a good day. So like I said, up, down, up, down. We're going back down now. He goes, you know, this is BS, right? And he does not say bologna sandwich. He says the real word.

And I was like, I don't know if he's more talking to me or talking to the T TSA person and so I just kind of don't say anything and he's like this is the seventh person that's kind of in front of me and I kind of just like ignore it and then she's kind of ignoring it she's like wait you say seven and he's like yes seven people have come in front of me she's like I'm the one doing the cutting I haven't brought seven people in front of you. That doesn't make any sense. Then they start going at it. Hot dog lady versus BS guy.

She's like, wait, are you pranking me too? Is this part of it? Show me your pocket. Are you the hot dog vandal? You know what? I can't wait to scan your bag. We're going to see how many hot dogs you got in that duffel. Nice try. Oh, yeah. duffel. Nice try.

Oh, yeah. Frank Furter. Nice try, bulgo. Cool name. Yeah, right. What's your name? Nathan's? Yeah.

And so they start going at it. And then I'm just in the middle, and I'm just like... Was she grilling him? I think she was just like... She was kind of a sassy black lady. She's like, why are you lying? Why are you lying? Seven people have an ink cut in front of you. the middle and i'm just like is she grilling him uh i think she's just like like you know she was kind of a sassy black lady why are you lying why are you lying seven people have an ink cut in front of you like why are you lying about that right and uh anyway and i'm just in the middle of it and i'm just like trying to get through and i kind of i'm just trying to be like hey

sorry man and then he looks at me and says this is bull and says it to me and i was like i you should you should pay for clear. You said that? Yeah, I was like, I don't know what to tell you. The only perk of getting TSA clear, it's not like I'm getting these other perks. I need to get a lounge, and I get a back massage. It's just like the only thing you get

is access to the front of the line. What do you want me to say? I mean, I'm not going to let you go in front of me. This is exactly what I'm paying for. It's the only perk. That's so funny that you're like, you should just pay for it. I think that's so, you were panicked. Like, you were like, I don't know. Yeah.

And it was like very much shoulders went up and it like hands were, hands were open. You should, you should pay for it. Cause I just know you well enough to know, like, you're like, well, logically if a plus B equals c then i need i deserve c like you don't deserve you know whatever like yeah he was like wearing and not quite a suit but he was wearing like a i think a nice jacket it seemed like he probably travels a lot for work look at he could afford it i don't know sure you should you should pay for it oh my so that got me

kind of flustered i was like oh didn't like that but then going back up was he right behind you after yes and then he was right behind you're hustling you're like i'm taking all the moving walkways yeah yeah yeah yeah i don't have to take off my shit yeah oh wait yeah no yeah laptop's out of the bag or no i forget what they're saying these days um oh my so yeah that was that was, I was stressed. I was just so sweaty. And then, but then I, so I am very much running late. Like I have to go straight to my gate.

There's no time for anything. But in that time, I got recognized three times by three different people. One of which, sorry, I threw my shoe and it hit the tripod. That's my bad timing. No problem, no problem. One of which he was like, he was on the phone uh so we didn't talk much but he's like hey dude love the videos and he was wearing bad birdie i was like love the bad birdie and he goes i used your

promo code perfect i've never met anyone in person who's like used a code like that really outside of a ghost hunter you never met anybody that's used roback grkc20 now wrote now row back yeah now there's a code yeah for golf apparel yeah um but uh yeah i guess i i have met ben miller yeah cody taro yeah that's true star peterson anyway that was fun and then to top it off i get to the uh to the gate i'm like lining up you know i'm sweaty and whatever and i'm trying to find okay i'm i'm a19 all right i'm going over here and as i'm getting in line over the loudspeaker i just got to this gate i don't know who's talking or if this is even my gate you know sometimes there's a little bleed over it's like sure i'm in a34 but i'm hearing announcements from a36 whatever and so as i'm

lining up i hear over the loudspeaker uh oh one of my favorite comedians is on this flight and i kind of hear that but i'm like i mean i'm sure trey is like around here somewhere whatever and then when she scans my boarding pass she's like good to see you one of my favorite comics no way you were talking about me what you got loudspeakers loudspeakers dude sometimes those loudspeakers go far too i hope it did bleed over sometimes it's just like you know yeah three gates sometimes it's like the whole airport yeah holy cow it went out to everybody um that's cool that's really cool i was not expecting that because i was like i mean trey is on this flight i'm sure he's here too this could even just be another gate nearby yeah but

come to find out trey was running even more late than i was he wasn't even there yet oh him and katie were like very late to board the plane and so yeah i got loudspeaker so in up and down time at the airport and then this guy the whole time like the guy that's mad at you is like seeing you get all this amazing treatment he's like no wonder yeah it's called favoritism towards the celebrities man like just so upset that you're that you're like yeah i get it why this guy is my seventh guy cutting me now yeah clearly wow they just let him cut so that's so good dude up and down time at the airport that's amazing yeah a lot of my favorite celebrities that's really favorite comedians so well one in the same hand in hand um i'm gonna go get my shoe good idea i don't like podcasting with one shoe on

uh well let's do a quick just bit about uh all-time quarterbacks related football things and it's going to transition into a game with timon fun okay you're gonna talk you're gonna talk about how good the chiefs are uh yeah pretty much i mean the chiefs are awesome and as you're listening to this it's monday but we played the Broncos yesterday. We whooped them, of course. So some quick facts for you, Tymon. So the Chiefs-Broncos, supposedly a rivalry. I hated the Broncos fans growing up in Kansas City. They were just jerks.

But the Chiefs have not lost to the Broncos since September of 2015. Okay. Pretty crazy. And so just some quick facts about September of 2015. The most popular phone, the latest iPhone, the iPhone 5, was in September of 2015. Wow. Peyton Manning was their quarterback.

Okay. This one's really crazy. This one's a little more niche to the Chiefs kingdom, but West Lafayette High School had a 14-year-old freshman kicker who had just moved from his home country of Greece. He was literally playing his his home country of Greece. He was literally playing his first full year of football. He is now on the Chiefs in his second year, and his name is George Karloftis. Oh, gotcha. Okay. He was a kicker, and now he's a linebacker for the Chiefs.

The kid had never played anyway. Todd Gurley just began his rookie campaign with the Rams. Okay. The St. Louis Rams. Wow. Suck it. Um, Kobe Bryant, Tim Duncan, and Kevin Garnett were still playing in the NBA. Wow. The last time the chiefs lost to the Broncos and some of the most popular movies were Zootopia, Moana, Sing, Trolls, The Greatest Showman, Deadpool, The Revenant, and Doctor Strange. So all to say, I just love when like, sometimes there's this fun perspectives on time of like, man, it's been a long time since that happened. Yeah.

So then I got to thinking, Tymon is pretty young. Tymon, were you born in 2006? Yes. Is that right? Yeah. And so then I thought, 2006 doesn't seem like that far along, like away. Like, but there's probably a lot of things from 2006 or around there that Tymon has no idea what's going on.

Do you think he knows about 9-11? Do you know about 9-11? What? It's the convenience store. If you're in trouble, you call cops, call police officers. Right. Yeah, firemen. 9 and then 11.

Sorry, it went over my head. No, so basically I just have some... Is that not... No, I'm laughing at Tymon. Went over my head. Tymon, Tymon, Tymon. Tymon, Tymon, is that not? No, I'm laughing at timing. Whatever. Timing, timing, timing. Timing, timing, timing. Tune it, tune it. So I have some questions that were either right around that time or before.

Kind of pop culture-y most of the time. I don't think I have any sports questions in there, Timon. Don't worry. Okay, that's good. And it's just a little trivia for Timon. I have two different names for it. Let me know which one you like better. Okay.

Putting time into perspective. Putting time into perspective. Not bad. Or time and knowledge, but you kind of say like common knowledge. Common knowledge. That's time and knowledge. I'm going to go with first one. Putting time into perspective.

Yeah. Okay. Putting time into perspective. So. Okay. In 2007, Timon, a very popular song for jake and i uh to dance to play at school dances um was called crank that do you know who it was by no wow fun question i do not uh the answer is soldier boy okay why me you cranked that soldier boy yeah you heard that? I've heard that, yes. Oh, for one.

Okay, Tymon. In 2006, there was a planet that was classified as a dwarf planet. Do you know what planet that is? Pluto. Very good. You know what? Maybe we should call it time and knowledge. At the end of it, we say, like if he gets it wrong, he's like, huh, I guess it wasn't time and knowledge.

If he gets it right, huh. We kind of like back up to, guess it wasn't time and knowledge yeah he gets it right huh we kind of like back up to guess it wasn't time and knowledge pluto that's correct yeah i guess it was time and knowledge okay time and knowledge um okay the iphone wasn't out when time was born 2007 was when it came out okay uh can you name the two most popular phones going on before that um i'll give you a hint okay good um the first one was a from motorola the brand okay motorola i'll give you a hint i'll give you another hint okay okay it was it was known for how thin it was motorola razor very good i guess it is time and knowledge and then the other one was known because it had a full keyboard on it.

And it had a little like ball that you could move like a mouse around on it. Was it the only other like, I'm thinking of like older phone, Nokia? I don't know. I think this was its own brand. Yeah, the White House used it. White House loved it. It was very like business-y phone. Yeah, I don't even have a guess.

It's a type of fruit. Oh, blackberry? Yes. Very good. I guess with a few hints. He got some time and knowledge. All right. This one is just kind of a generic one.

I don't know when it actually came out, but DVDs were a thing, like kind of a technology thing when we were younger. What differentiates, makes DVDs so much better than VHSs? um, we're a thing like kind of a technology thing when we were younger. Um, what differentiates makes DVD so much better than VHS is. Yeah. What was like the, the, the advance?

Like what are some of the differences between them? Obviously picture is different. Yeah. They're just a lot higher quality. They can, but then you don't have to like rewind. Yes. The whole thing.

Yeah. Okay. Yeah. That's the main thing is like, you Yes. The whole thing. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. That's the main thing is like, you could skip ahead really quickly. Yeah. You could go to a scene selection. Sometimes there are special features on the DVD.

Yeah. All those things are just not VHS. Yeah. I've just heard people talk about like all that. Yeah. I had to rewind stuff. So it's like, but I never experienced that.

Seems like you had some time. I loved a good DVD menu and like seeing like, what does the DVD have? but I never experienced that. Seems like you had some time and knowledge. I loved a good DVD menu and seeing what does the DVD have? Are they going to have behind the scenes? Do they have deleted scenes? Are they going to have a blooper reel? Are they going to call it a gag reel?

What about commentary? Who knows? Commentary always flipped me out. I was like, I can't listen to this very long. No, no. Same with me, but depending on the movie, I would love that now.

Yeah. That's true true that might change a bit yeah before the generic term DVR there was one brand that debuted in 1999 but that was popular for a while before DVR do you know what that is? no way he gets us what even really is DVR?

seriously? well that's not time and knowledge that would not be time and knowledge really you don't know what DVR. Seriously? Seriously. Well, that's not time and knowledge. That would not be time and knowledge. Really? You don't know what DVR is? Definitely. Like if I said, hey, can you DVR that show for me? No. Really? I think it's digital video recording is what it stands for.

Basically, it's just like on your cable box. Yeah, you record the show and you watch it later. Okay. I probably should have known that. That's like the generic term for it, I think. But there was a term before that that was a specific company that kind of started it, I think. But there was a term before that that was a specific company that kind of started the DVR revolution. It was in a Weird Al song.

That's how I found out about it. I only watch Will and Grace one time, one day. Wish I hadn't, because TiVo now thinks I'm gay. There you go. The answer is TiVo. Okay. So, never heard of TiVo? No.

Interesting, okay. Not time and knowledge. That's not time and knowledge. All right, a few more here. The billionth song was downloaded in 2006 So never heard of TiVo? No. Interesting. Okay. Not time of knowledge. That's not time of knowledge. All right. A few more here. The billionth song was downloaded in 2006 on what platform? The billionth song for this specific platform.

wasn't even a thing. Yeah. That's fair. Uh, and the song was speed of sound. You know who that song is by? I don't even know that. Yeah. No idea.

Coldplay. Um, okay. The office in 2006 won an Emmy for most outstanding comedy. Um, what phrase did Michael Scott coin? That's blank. What she said.

Very good. Nice. Okay. This one will be interesting. It's one of those things where like, surely you know this, but maybe you don't. The most popular TV shows in 2006

American one word? tv show not american tv show no no but like yeah yeah oh yes yes yes yes yes american tv show american production um you want me to do the theme song? American Idol. Yes, very good. Sorry, yeah, that took you. Obviously. Dancing, blank.

don't know about the CSI Chris yeah CSI was awesome it was kind of the first of its kind to like just show like maybe not the first

of its kind it did feel like it though it doesn't feel like it was an original show really a crime show yeah I guess it's yeah I guess it wasn't as It doesn't feel like it was an original show. Really? A crime show? Yeah, I guess it wasn't as original as the scene, but it was so much more popular than any other

crime show. They just looked at crimes. It was like the forensics, I feel like. Maybe, yeah. Maybe that's why it was different. What was the crime scene? Crime scene's interesting. Crime scene's interesting. Let's delve into that. Crime scene investigation. Crime scene's interesting.

Okay, this is the last one. This popular website launched in 2006 which included lots of articles with lists like, which Harry Potter character are you? And it's called Buzz... Buzzfeed. Yes. Buzzfeed. Very good. Buzz, buzz. Also Twitter was in 2006 as well. So, that is all. Time

and knowledge. Time and knowledge. Can you hit that one button for the new sponsor alert? I can indeed. I think it's turned down. It was like, I was like going to get it like fast this time too. Yeah, I love it. Yes, indeed. We'll cut this whole thing out.

Ask me again. How about you hit that buzzer for the first time? There it is. Oh, yeah. That's what I'm talking about, baby. This is so exciting. Long-time fan, long-time listener, long-time friend of mine. She's an SBU Lickum Bearcat graduate.

Kelsey Friend. Kelsey Gillespie. Yeah. KG. Either way you know her, you love her. That's right. Just the outer reach. It's just about her.

She's awesome. Yeah. That's right. Just the ad read is just about her. So she's awesome. Yeah. She's so great. She's probably a nine wing eight, I think, on the Enya. Yeah. Harmonize Enya. On the Enya. But yeah, she's awesome.

She's one of the sponsors of the podcast. So we're fired up. And I hope you guys get fired up to support her. Her business called kg for kelsey gillespie kg planning it's an online party planning service oh hey hey raise your hand for an audio podcast who likes to party raise your hand um if you like somebody else to help you uh start that party look at br Brad's hands. They're both up. Now slowly open your eyes.

Everyone's hands are up. Time and time on camera, both hands up. All you have to do is answer a few questions about the party you're throwing and Kelsey will take it from there. She can research themes, narrow down the ideas, send you an email with links you can click on, easily order what you like.

And if you want further help with either ordering things, finding different ideas for something, she can do it all. She's just a personal party assistant. She's a party assistant. You know what I was thinking about this morning in the shower? And I think it would be okay to say this because I don't think Isaac listens to the podcast.

He only listens when his mom tells him he was talked about. But hey, Kathy, we're talking about his birthday, so don't tell him. But I was thinking that this morning, Isaacac's birthday is coming up we should do something for him okay maybe i'll just hit up kg planning okay seriously yeah i'll pay her full price yeah absolutely which is not what you guys have to do yeah no absolutely we can uh there's normally a 40 service um for this kg planning but if you tell me you're a ghost, she'll do it for 30. That's 75% off, dude. Yes, it is.

Right? No. Yeah, it is. 25. Oh, yeah. 25% off. Yeah, sorry. Dude, that's 100% off, bro.

Holy cow. Tymon's like, you dinguses. Put that on the TiVo. No, but seriously, her, her planning, her services are great for people who are like Jake don't like planning the parties, get a little bit overwhelmed. I know that Catherine can be like, I don't know which one I should choose, you know, whatever. Um, mentally overloaded need something taken off their plate. I think so often we just try to do it all ourselves. You can hire somebody and efficiently do this and do it well.

And sometimes Catherine loves to verbally process things with somebody else besides me. And so having somebody like this to just talk through the ideas and everything, I know it can also be very valuable to somebody. So she has a few different ways you can contact her. You can DM her on Facebook or like I said, KG planning, Kelsey Gillespie, Kevin Garnett planning, uh, or you can email her at planning with KG at gmail.com. Easy. And once again, mention you're a ghostie and she'll do it for $10 off $30 total. It's pretty nice to pay 30 bucks. Have a little party planned for you. Yes, dude. It's nice to have a party assistant for that.

Absolutely. That affordably. Yeah. And I think as, as somebody who now has been on the side of themed birthday parties for kids, there's so many things I wouldn't have even known if I were doing it by myself. Catherine luckily is pretty good at this, but I think it is overwhelming for her. But dude, there's like, you got to get the small plates. You got to get the big plates. You got to do the tablecloth. You don't have to do all those things, but they're all options and all potential ways to enhance a theme. And KG Planning knows about all of it. So check her out

playing with KG, gmail.com KG planning on Facebook, different size plates, different size plates. Uh, after I left the airport on Thursday, I got on an airplane and I flew to Dallas. Yes. And I had a show that night. Yes. And it was fun. It was, I got a little nervy just because I knew I had so many friends in the audience. It's just one of those shows like I want this one to go well.

When was the last time you felt that? Kansas City. Yeah. So yeah, it just happens a couple times every tour I feel like. But yeah,

there's just so many people in the audience that I'm so excited about and so many people I got to see. We had old K-Life people. We're talking Josh Willis. We're talking Logan Cleaver, Ryan Cayley. Really? So good to see we had um old k-life people we're talking josh willis we're talking logan cleaver ryan cayley really so good to see all of them are they all in dallas emily

garver yeah yeah they're all on dallas so that was fun um josh and maggie mayor they came hung backstage a little bit um hung out with him afterwards that was really fun um i see that hand um some people that go back like hang out backstage do they just hang out back there the entire show and like watch you from like the side uh no they had seats so it was like come backstage for a little bit see the green room meet all the guys kick it a little bit all right now go find your seat okay gotcha yep um we had uh carter files listener of the pod i've talked about him before because he used to live in corpus christi and he gave me the download on all the corpus christi details when i was

performing there yeah but yeah i hadn't seen this dude since australia we met in australia and i hadn't seen him since but love him i think he's awesome yeah um and so it was really good just for us to connect and there was a big group of people and so i think they enjoyed listening to us connect and talk about that trip when we were allowed to play spike ball. Because that was the same trip when we pretended like we weren't interested in it and all that stuff. So that was fun.

Plenty of CannaCuck people. So many ghosties that were there. Also, previously on this podcast, I think this was in the spring, very recently after the bachelor party. So in the bachelor party in Phoenix, I was big on trying to jump into the pool and make the ball go really high. Yeah. Uh, and then,

uh, maybe a week or two after that, that was crazy. And I was nailing it every time. Yeah. Then we go to Florida, go start his getaway. I'm doing it there too.

I'm doing it off the top of the house. It went to the neighbor's yard. Yeah. Yeah. It was crazy. Another gate over. And then, um um but yeah i think shortly after that is when i hit up we were reacting to it on the tv here but um reagan popoff is his name yep and he's the one who does all this like um

we call it death diving cliff jumping he like is a cliff jumper full-time he's found a way to monta he does crazy stuff and he was one dming me tell me like oh yeah that's like difficult for me to do okay anyway he flew from hawaii straight to dallas to come to the show because his brother lives there yeah reagan did so i got to meet him got to connect him with a bunch of other people and because i know his brother billy who you also know and then that was fun we're trying to figure out someone asked josh mayer was like how do you how do you guys know how do you know Billy? And I was like, I think through Canicuck or something or whatever. Billy's like,

no, dude, we met in the Grand Canyon. I was like, oh yeah. Really? This is awesome. I met you in Australia. I met you in the Grand Canyon

and I met you, whatever. I was like, that's right. It was when I took like Eli and Cooper McCullough and some of those guys, me and Peter Casey

just took these guys on like a senior trip to the Grand Canyon one year. Did you guys have an Instagram account for that? I don't know if we did. I can't remember now. I feel like you did.

Sounds like something I would have done at the time. Yeah. But yeah, which ran into these other guys in the Grand Canyon and became friends. That's fun.

That was fun. And then, save the best for last, Christine was there. Oh, carrying Christine out of? Yes. Really? which i feel like i kind of want to retell the story a little bit okay permission to retell a story where it's on

the podcast because i feel like time it doesn't know the story of course there's got to be some other people who don't know the story sure yeah like now that you've met isaac other people who are new to the podcast yeah so it was great to see christine again and you know and a lot of fun jokes with isaac like christine going to be at the show tonight. Make sure you say hi to her. She might need help finding her seat. Isaac's just like escorting her. You really don't need to do this.

I prefer to. No, no. This is how it is with us. Okay. So I haven't told this in a while, but from what I can remember, so this is probably two years ago. I mean, this is right before I meet Rachel, summers ago. Um, me, Isaac, another guy, we go to Maui

with two girls, Kristen, Christine. So fun. Uh, I forgot. Oh, I think I was doing a podcast with TJ walk in love at the time, but the rest of the crew, they go out and they're gonna go snorkeling in the ocean um isaac and christine are out um pretty far into the ocean they could still stand up but they're out pretty far christine steps on a sea urchin and get her foot is just like i don't know what they call them urches yeah she gets the urches in her she had an urge to feel pain oh i'm getting the urge i'm sorry but i got the urge oh i can't walk anymore i'm urching i'm urching over here hey i'm urching oh boy so jace is on the shore christine um can't like walk can't put any weight on her foot and so um apparently isaac had carried her all the way back to shore so i don't hear about this until dinner when we all meet up and i i just kind of heard from jace other friend he's like

yeah did you hear like isaac carried christine out of the ocean and in my head I'm like dang that's awesome like good for Isaac I mean he's a he's a 19 year old at the time like probably just fired up to even be on this trip with these you know these awesome people beautiful girls and I'm thinking about him just you know six-pack carrying Christina out of the ocean man baywatch style yeah hasselhoff boom oh man yeah i bet he had some urges sure at the moment and so we get like a kind of moment away from the rest of the crew and i was like dude isaac hey what was it like uh carrying christine out of the ocean and he goes dude it sucked he goes um he's like we were like a i don't forget now the details but he's like we're like 100 yards out there so i pick her up and start carrying her

but the more i carry her to the shore the less buoyant she becomes the less like you know underwater she is so she's just getting gradually heavier and heavier as we go he says the waves are crazy i'm just getting like smashed with waves trying to carry her he goes uh also reminder i still have my flippers on so i'm having a walk in flip i'm having a high knee through the ocean and the cherry on top i still had my goggles and snorkel on so it was just the direct opposite of how I imagined Isaac carrying Christine out of the ocean. And he said it was just miserable and he was just so tired afterwards. And I think when I told Brad, that's right. It's the hardest. I think you've ever laughed on the podcast. The first time I got to tell you that story, just because no, like you could think of

the most beautiful or attractive person in the entire world, you put one of those snorkel goggles on them. No one is attractive in those things. And not only do you not look attractive, but your voice is automatically like you got, you're doing okay. You're still feeling that urchins a little bit. I just saw, you know, like you're just like struggling. Like they're just nothing, nothing like magnetizing about that at all. Like you were not attractive at all with that thing on. Just so good. So did they talk about it? Like, is it funny to them? Like, is it, does Christine think it's funny? I don't know actually because she did say um because i think she listens to ghost runners occasionally who knows maybe she listened to this

one but she was like i remember that day you posted that episode in waking up and everyone had texted me and she's like why is my name in the title of this podcast episode so i think she's a good sport about it i think isaac's a good sport i think is think Isaac would be a great sport about it to anyone except for maybe to Christine. Yeah. You know, I think he'd be willing to joke about it to anyone. But I think in front of her, he'd probably still be like, you know, yeah, it's no big deal. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Yeah. It's whatever. Because, I mean, she was probably in a lot of pain. So he was trying to not make her feel bad about. Damsel in distress. Very, very difficult, like strange, strenuous thing. Like you thought it was hard sitting in that steam room. Yeah.

Try doing it. You know, it's funny because I don't think Isaac, which I bet it did suck. I bet it was so hard walking in flippers just in general. I was going to say just getting back out of the ocean in general is so I eventually I'm just like bear crawling out of there. Yeah. Because I wouldn't even want to walk out of there. Yeah, because I wouldn't even want to walk out of the ocean.

I would want to swim out of the ocean until I literally cannot swim any longer. Right. And then he had to walk the whole way while carrying someone.

That does sound like it sucks. So yeah, it's just fun reliving all those memories. Mm-hmm. Have we talked about how we're going to Hawaii on the podcast? Did you know that, Tymon?

No. Well, Tymon might know. No? Yeah, I don't know if we've talked about it. Yeah, I think we did mention how I kind of got you to come and then... Oh, wait, maybe... I think, yeah, I've heard something about it. Yeah, you're performing in Maui. And so we're like, hey, let's make a business trip out of this thing. Yeah, we're going to stay with TJ and Bethke and it's going to be a blast. So do some podcasts out there. Have a little podcast on location.

Yeah, maybe get TJ involved. Maybe get Bethke involved. That's the hope. That's the plan. It'll be fun. Brad was looking at the calendar yesterday. Yeah. Brad and I will be together more in Hawaii,

which is probably like a day and a half, two days. Then we will be together for all of December. Yes. December 21st when we're recording. Yeah, I think December 21st is the magic day. So no one will be sick. We got to get it done on December 21st. No one oversleep Yeah. I think December 21st is the magic day. So we got to get it done. No one, no one oversleep or, you know, whatever, like that is a big day. Uh, yeah. Yeah. I don't know. I mean, maybe we'll see each other after Christmas. I don't know that week, but yeah, literally like before Christmas we got, we got December 21st cause you're going

to be gone in Australia forever, forever. And so we're going to do some podcasts, not together, which will be interesting. Yeah, we'll probably do some Gene Truss videos not together. I'll probably be doing like Friday Pickleball videos not together. You know, it'll be an interesting time. It'll be fun. Obviously, I'm so glad we're going to Australia, and I'm glad Rachel gets to come too. But yeah, I mean, three weeks away from home.

There's a lot going on at home. That's a long time to be away. I don't think I've ever done that unless it was like working at camp, you know? Yeah. It's a long time to be away from where you regularly sleep. Yeah. Like you kind of get,

you like live at camp eventually, like when you're all summer, you know? But yeah, this will be, yeah, like probably Kauai for two days, Maui for two days,

Honolulu for one. And then all these Australian cities and New Zealand city. Yeah. And then straight into Christmas, or I guess Kansas city here for a day or two, then Stratford, then Iowa. Right before that was Stratford and Iowa for Thanksgiving. So it's going to be a fun winter.

It's going to be wild. Fun times. Hawaii will be fun. Will be fun. You know what else is fun is getting diapers on your children. In what way? Around the romp? Well, yeah, around the romp, for sure. Well, and sometimes around

the head, too. Yeah, sure. You know, I mean, just trying to be a little goofy, like, there's Rosie running around with a diaper on her head. But we are sponsored by a diaper company. Did you know that, Jake? We surely, surely are. It's called EveryLife. EveryLife.com. And it's created...

Sometime I want to get like a baby doll in here and see if you can like see what you would do, like putting a diaper on it. Rachel and I were just talking about diapers last night, actually. Oh, why? I forget why. Interesting. Yeah.

I wonder why. There was something. It started with spanking. Okay. I think. Hello. Because I grew up getting spanked. Yeah.

Rachel did not. It shows. She's so easygoing. I don't know. I'm not worried about any consequences here. And so we were talking about that a little bit and um and then she was like if we do end up spanking i think you're gonna have to do it i don't think i can and so then i was like okay all right i will do i will do every spank if you do every diaper oh yeah yeah i mean i do it's a bad deal like i'd be i I'd be, I, yes,

I would be willing to do this. So I will do the butts. If it's spank, you do the butts. If it's pee pee poo poo. Okay. That's the, that's the best deal I'm willing to make. Yeah. Or if not, you're gonna have spank. So we were talking about that last night. I like, like you just kind of handle things like a little more like gingerly than I do. That's what Rachel said. She's like, I can't wait to see you diaper. You're going to be so gentle. You're going to be like, yeah, but, but sometimes it's kind of like a little bit like Ily than I do. That's what Rachel said. She's like, I can't wait to see you diaper. You're going to be so gentle. You're going to be like, yeah,

but, but sometimes it's kind of like a little bit like I got to change this thing before something crazy happens or like, you know, they're exposed. I got to put something else on it or whatever. Yeah. And so there's a,

there's a balance of like, you got to be gentle, but you also got to have some urgency there. Cause at a certain point you can't be gentle with ratchet straps. Fair. The age old phrase. That's hey, don't be too gentle with your ratchet straps.

That's like an analogy for life, right? That's your mind swing. Did you end up writing down the made up sayings? Do you want to do that this week? No, I haven't done it yet. We'll do it next week. But that sounds exactly like what I was writing down. You can't be gentle with ratchet straps. That is a perfect one. That's perfect. Don't be too gentle with ratchet straps. All right. Maybe next week we'll do a segment. Yeah. I want to do a segment of just made up saying it's just exactly like that. I think that no one actually says, but I want to talk about just new say like double meanings and like why you would say those,

why you would use those. That's a good one in conversation. Was that off the top of the, that was off the top. Can you, you have baked ideas just fine, dude. I think I'm more of a sayings guy.

Yeah. Maybe this is guy. I'm looking at my made up sayings. I can't wait to go over this. Let's go dude. Next week I'm more of a sayings guy. Yeah, maybe. You're a business guy. I'm looking at my made-up sayings. I can't wait to go over this. Let's go, dude. Next week. Okay, next week. That'll be fun. Anyway, that was Dypes. Dypes. Yeah, I'm excited. I was, I mean,

not very many guys have had any experience changing diapers. I never did. It would be strange if I was really into it, really good at it, and had a preference of age of kid. Oh, I love six-month, really good at it, and had like a preference of age of kid. Oh, I love six-month-old diapers. Okay, that's problematic.

Size two is where I really hit my stride. It's like, okay, bud. Calm down over there. You know what? You're off spanking duty, too. Yeah, right. Absolutely. Freaking us out.

Nothing for you, buddy. But yeah, we took like a class when we were first pregnant. Oh, I thought you were going to say high school or something. I was like, that's strange, buddy. But yeah, we took like a class like when we were first pregnant. Oh, I thought you were going to say high school or something. No, no, no, no. Olathe had this weird curriculum, like emphasis where they were like, Hey, we just want everyone to know how to change a diaper. There's been a lot of girls just accidentally getting pregnant and we just need like, we figured the best solution is not to stop that. Just prepare them. Not to encourage abstinence, you know, until marriage, but just to make sure everyone knows how to change a diaper when the baby comes. So, yeah.

What would you rather go into a school and teach? Abstinence or diaper? Diaper-like technique. Abstinence. Diaper. I mean, abstinence or? Diaper. Or just diapers. I mean, abstinence or diaper. Or just

diapers. I mean, well, first of all, you didn't specify children's diapers. There's adult diapers out there. Yeah, the aisle that says incontinence. Yep. I think is the word. So I don't want to have to teach about that stuff. You know, show some educational videos on that. No, thanks.

Gladys. No, I think abstinence. Yeah. I would just be so unashamedly like, listen, guys, it's worth it. Trust me. I'd bring the gospel. You think so?

Yeah. You think you'd scare them away with STDs or you'd leave that out of it? Oh, I'd start with STDs. Everyone on your phones, look up blue waffle. What is that? I feel like that was one of those things in high school like everyone got tricked into googling blue waffle so don't yeah

i'm almost like i feel bad saying it now oh gosh it's not worth looking it up really yeah just don't look it up but it was one of those just like classic high school like dude you know i'm in the mood for right now blue waffle you should look it up're so good. And then it's like this code word for some UTI or something nasty. No way. I'd scare him straight. I am here to scare you straight! And then encourage him to get married. So it's a pro-marriage class.

Yeah. Get married next week, guys. Yeah. I mean, abstinence, yeah, is not something you ought to do once you're married. Abstinence. Abstinence. So, yeah. Yeah. Yeah, it's not something you ought to do once you're married. Abstinence. Abstinence. Abstinence. Yeah. So, yeah.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It is interesting when they say we're practicing abstinence. Like, I'm going to try to get really good at it now. So that when... Once I'm married. Yeah.

Then I really never do it. Practicing. Yeah. Yeah, we practice. We're talking about practice for the game. Not the game. Not the game. We're talking about practice? We're talking about practice for the game. Not the game. Not the game. We're talking about practice? We're talking about practice. Anyway.

Anyway. Last thing about Thursday and then I'll shut up. The rest of the time it's your podcast. This is your podcast right now. After all that, hanging with everyone, it was so fun. Beautiful weather. It was just good to be down in Dallas. It was like, I'm outside in a t-shirt. It's still summer here.

Me and Isaac hop in the car with Josh and Maggie Mayer and go to Whataburger. Fun. Which is just more fun to do it for some reason in like Phoenix or Dallas. I know we have them here, but it's just more fun to do it. I've been to the ones here like twice.

Yeah, it's just more fun down there. Absolutely. And I drop off my stuff on the bus. Derek's there editing. I'm like, Derek, we're going to Whataburger if you want to come. He's like, oh, I'm good. I got some editing to do.

Okay, no worries. So we go. Josh and Maggie both never had a honey butter chicken biscuit before. We demanded they order it. Yes. Really enjoyed it, which I will say, Josh was like, I think you guys overhyped it. I was like, dang it. You got to be careful. Maggie takes a bite, and she goes,

Josh, you're crazy, dude. She's like, this is good, dude. You're wild for thinking they overhyped it. This is good, dude. Come on, Josh. Yeah, give me a break, Josh. It's pretty good. And if anything else, you're crazy, dude. She's like, this is good, dude. You're wild for thinking they overhyped it. This is good, dude. Come on, Josh. Yeah, give me a break, Josh. It's pretty good. And if anything else, you gotta share in the excitement with your buddy.

Don't be the guy that's like, eh, it's not that good. Yeah, he was kind of being that guy. Don't bring down the vibes, dude. So I think I ordered one or two, and I was like, I think I might order another one. Let's see how the line is. I turned back and I look back in line at the front of the Whataburger

and Derek is standing there. He's like, you made it sound too good, man. And so I go up and I'm like, Derek, what's up? I was like, did you text Isaac or something? And he's like, no, I just, honestly, I didn't even know if you guys were at this one or, no, I just, I honestly, I didn't even know if you guys were at this one or not, but I just really wanted it.

And so, yeah, I just walked here. Like you walked here, dude. Or was it a ways? Yeah. We're like,

cause we got there at 1030 and we're like, let's just sit and wait for 30 minutes until the HBCB is ready. And so Derek walked through the woods. He just took a direct path to it he's like on the map it looked fine but he said it was terrifying dude it's in the middle of the night just like trudging through the pines he said yeah it was just thick it was like a mattress over there like i don't want to know i don't want to know he said he called his wife in case it was the last time we ever talked to her had it on speakerphone and also had his flashlight out and he said every now and then

he'd hear a noise it would just take off running oh and we just run for a little bit till you didn't hear any noises and he walked again like dude what are you oh my goodness just walk through the woods that was pretty hilarious derrick would kind of look like a bigfoot like like he's a tall lanky guy like yeah has long strides like Bigfoot does. If somebody saw him, yeah. Somebody saw him. They think that's, that might be him. Did you see that, uh, footage of Bigfoot that came out recently and then come to find out, shout out community notes on Twitter. I love community notes. That's a great idea. More platforms should have that, should have that. But, um, yeah, this like really convincing footage of

Bigfoot, like leaks a couple of weeks ago. And it turns out there's a Bigfoot expedition you could take in New Mexico or something like that. It's like a safari for Bigfoot. And oftentimes the owner will dress up as Bigfoot just to throw people a bone. Well, sure. You don't want to just go and just look at the woods for nothing. Exactly. You've got to feed the customers a little bit. Totally.

Yeah, it was just the owner of this business just dressed up as bigfoot just walking through so you know it's came through on that one good word community notes yeah but maybe derrick really was bigfoot and i wouldn't yeah that does kind of make sense that's too funny yeah it's just so funny it's like dude where did you get here and he's got cuts on his arms i walked through the woods cuts he does yeah that's just like a little uh good old derrick i mean if i'm if i'm less than let's say 30 of the way into the woods i'm turning around yeah like if i started getting cuts i'm like nope i can i can walk a little bit just go uber or something i don't think i could even step into the woods good news it's happening again how does this always happen how does this

always happen while recording i don't even know what I'm going to do this time. Thanks for getting the call. Hello? Hi, Jacob. Hi, yes, this is Jacob. Hi, sir. This is Bella from Farmers Insurance. Oh.

My father-in-law is a farmer. I'm sorry? My father-in-law is a farmer. I'm sorry? My father-in-law is a farmer. No, with farmer's insurance, sir. And we're just here to see if we can send you... Do you guys not insure farmers? I'm sorry? You wouldn't provide someone insurance if they were a farmer?

No, sir. Oh. It's for your home and auto insurance. Oh. Well, we are farmers. So that wouldn't work out then if you don't provide insurance for farmers. Bummer. Shucks. Dang.

It'd be like if Nationwide only does it overseas. It'd be like if Nationwide, you're like, well, I'm on somebody's side. And they're like, yeah, we're on their side too. You guys are farmers? When you said we are farmers, I was like, you just got it.

Go ahead. We are farmers. Bum, bum, bum, bum, bum. Bum, bum, bum, bum, bum. I mean, you know, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum. I should have. Honestly, I kind of forgot that was bum, bum, bum, bum. I should have. Honestly, I kind of forgot that was the phrase while I was saying it.

We are farmers. That's interesting. She just lost some business there. I don't understand. Historically, it's usually you get like another one in about three minutes. That's crazy. How many different databases am I in?

Because they're telling me they're taking my file out. Bum, ba-dum, bum, bum. Caterpillar fell off. Who knows, man? I don't. I read somebody said something in one of the comments. I was like, if you say yes, if you confirm it's you, then they can sell your number to somebody else.

So maybe it's your own fault, dude. I mean, we were talking about this yesterday after the freaking steam room, but this is going to be one of the more boomer takes that I have right now, and I think it is a sign of me getting older. Let's talk about it. But I'm just going to go for it.

What happened to this country? What happened to just... Can we just enjoy anything? That's my rant. I won't actually get into the rant, but can we just enjoy anything? That's my rant. I won't actually get into the rant, but can we just enjoy anything? Anything these days is sprinkled. We enjoy it for 24 hours,

it runs through the news cycle, and then the next day it's like, well, you know they're not who they say they are. Well, you know there's a conspiracy about this. Well, you know that's an industry plant. Well, you know it's actually not all good news. It's just like, I'm just tired of it. Just tired.

And you were like, dude, I think the solution is just getting off the internet. I was like, yeah, probably right. Like you, like all the examples you said, I was like, I haven't heard of any of those. Yeah. Except for the Taylor Swift. I mean, but, uh, I'm trying to think of things to refute you. Like, no, there's certainly there's sister Jean.

Remember sister Jean? Who is that? She was. Yeah, exactly. That's like, you're off the internet. Oh, Loyola, Chicago. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah. Like the, the nun or whatever for, yeah. Like the super fan. I think if you're old enough, you're good. You get a pass. Yeah. Betty White.

No one's hating on Betty. No one's like, can we stop with the Betty White stuff, please? If you're old enough and you're not in politics, you're good. Yeah. Yeah. Of course. Yeah. If you're on politics, I mean, if you're in politics in general, you're out, right?

It would be nice if like, once you hit 80, everyone's like, I just, I like everything he says. Yeah, good guy. He's old. Uh-huh, no problem. No problem. Yeah, I mean, but yeah, I think, yeah, everything else seems like somebody's going to have an opinion on.

But you know where you don't find those opinions very often? Normal conversations face-to-face with people. Yeah, it's a breath of fresh air. Just get out in the world. No one's that upset. Right. No one's that upset. Right. No one's that angry. Like,

cause what were you saying? Oh, that, like that woman, a super fan for the chargers. I was also a fan of the bike. It was this awesome. It was like,

what's this? I don't know. Come on. Maybe she's also like, she's just posing. And like, I was like, okay,

like I, who cares? I know. It's like, let's just enjoy this NFL fan. I don't want to know the conspiracies. I don't. Yeah.

Yeah. Let's just enjoy it. Right. I don't want to know the conspiracies. I don't, let's just enjoy it. People want to take down Taylor Swift. People want to take down LeBron James. Like, what are these people done? Other than just be successful and avoid controversy their entire career. Yeah, I don't know.

So they just get off there, man. Just go. Hey, unplug, brother. Unplug and plug in. Plug in here. Right in here, brother. In hereug and plug in. Plug in here. Right in here, brother. In here? Right into the cerebellum.

Right into the cerebellum, the abdulalungada, and the arteries right here. All right? Big three. You hear me? Yeah. Two brain, one heart. No veins, no lungs. No veins.

No mouth. But the anger part of your brain the the anger part of your brain the thinking part of your brain and the when blood is being taken away from your heart the cerebellum is the anger

medulla oblongata oh it is I didn't know I learned it from what is it water boy the medulla

oblongata isn't that water boy I don't know I've never seen that movie I learned it from Shaquille O'Neal. He said it one time. Really? Mandula Ablangata.

You've never seen Waterboy? Never seen it. I'm pretty sure. Yeah, it has to be Waterboy. I don't think I've ever heard of it. He's... Never heard of Waterboy? It was on TiVo.

Adam Sandler? Have you heard of Adam Sandler? Yes. Okay. Daryl Strawberry. Sports movie. But he's... I think he's going to some community college or something.

So he's in class and they're like, uh, why are alligator, alligator so aggressive? Why are they so angry? And water boy raises saying, it's like, uh,

mama says, cause they got all them teeth and no toothbrush. And he's like, that's very funny. But the criteria is the, the medulla oblongata. Okay. And he's like,

uh, mama says they got all them teeth and no toothbrush. From what I remember. I mean, I haven't seen that movie in 45 years. It's amazing how you can remember that, though. Me and my sister, we got the gene. We can remember all these quotes. That's amazing.

Anyway. Hey, how about some Good Ranchers ad, huh? Yeah. Tommy, give us a little yeehaw. Yeehaw! That's my guy right there, Tommy boy. You could be a funeral thespian. That was nice. Just had Good Ranchers last night.

We are sponsored by Good Ranchers, American Meat Delivered. Oh, yeah, we are. We had some bacon last night of theirs. Oh, the pumpkin spy? No, just good old-fashioned. Oh, nice. I haven't tried the pumpkin spice yet with Catherine. She's a little on the fence if the kids are going to like it.

And so guess what? Catherine and the kids just left for Texas for a few days. Guess who's popping in that pumpkin spice bake? I hate to take away, I hate to say something that didn't happen on Thursday, but on Friday, I got to meet the CEO of Good Ranchers. And?

His wife. Was it a good? And? Sorry. And his wife. Co-CEOs, yeah. Yeah, it was yeah it was fun we were asking her like how's the pumpkin spice bacon doing he's like oh people are loving it and um and i was like that that would be awesome that sounds so sweet but yeah good rich is great and honestly the fact that we get it i'm like rachel i was talking to her last night i was like we need to be taking advantage of this i want to start eating healthier i like, if you would be so kind, every night, just make me just chicken, seasoning, vegetable.

And then the next night, make me salmon, seasoning, vegetable. Yeah, protein and vegetables. Make me salmon, seasoning, vegetable. That's all I want to eat now. That's what I told Catherine. I was like, I would genuinely be okay if we had this specific chicken meal every single night. I would. I would.

Because sometimes I think we can stress about what food are we going to eat tonight? What are we going to, you know, what's for dinner? Just go with Good Ranchers meat and everything else will be just fine. Hey, plug in. Yeah. Right here. Right here.

Right here. And then unplug. And then unplug. But it'll be easy to unplug. It'll be easy because it's healthy. It's American. So it's American meat delivered. We have a code GRKC for $25

off your box at good ranchers.com. So check it out. They also have some seasonal stuff going on right now. They have, if you're looking to host some people, they got a little holiday box that has some pumpkin spice bacon as well as regular bacon, as well as sausage brats and a nice ham

with some good old glaze on it. I need to try some of this. Come on, Tyman! Let's go, Tyman! You gotta, dude! It's awesome! We'll send some Maria and Brandon's way. It'll be gone in five minutes in House of Tim. Yeah, send them out.

it's like four boxes in one or something awesome like that. So we need to get one. Like, we'll see if we can sponsor one called the M special. M special. I'm putting time into perspective. Yeah. Get them one.

It's truly the greatest meat that you can have. And it's funny. I saw one of the ghosties bought some recently. I can't remember her name.

I'm sorry. But she was like, I calculated this out, and it's actually cheaper than getting it at the store for the same stuff. Oh, that's awesome. So it really is way better, way higher quality and affordable. It's just bulk pricing, so it might be a little intimidating at first. But it is worth it. It lasts a long time, and it's delicious. And for the pescatarians out there, that's wild-caught seafood.

Oh, do they ever. Just a reminder. And it's good, dude. Sometimes fish I don't get excited about, I get excited about Good Ranchers fish. Goodranchers.com. Yeah. Man. Get after it.

Planning with KG at gmail.com. Gotcha. Because it said something about Bo. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I was like, I hope he didn't Venmo me for Bo watching Curious George on my Hulu. Oh, yeah. I don't think that's how they would do it. I mean, you pay a lot of money for the Hulu subscription.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. It said something with Bo, and I was like, I don't think that's how they would do it. I mean, you pay a lot of money for the Hulu subscription. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I said something with Bo, and I was like, I don't know. Yeah. I don't know if I want to record me saying this, but I'll say it anyway. I was just kind of conspicuous. Don't listen to this part, Connor Kelderman. I was just trying to get around the old Uncle Sam. I think I said, like, Curious George Do's or something like that.

That's funny. We're fine. It's fine. But we calculate it down and we put it down on our balance sheet. It's all in there. It's in there. It's in there. Curious George.

You're fine. That 80-year-old guy in Washington, we love him. Okay, well, let's end it there. You want to do some reviews? Yes, I have one. Great. It's by SmallNova236. The tiny Nova.

Novita. The title says, Do you want of laugh? Of course you do. I've been listening since sometime in 2019, but for some reason never knew what to say in a review. How goofy of me. I thought Ghostrunners through listening to early episodes of Correct Opinions where never knew what to say in a review. How goofy of me. I thought Ghostrunners

through listening to early episodes of Correct Your Opinions where Jake was a guest once in a while. At the time, I was working at a job that I was struggling

to be happy in, and his silly conversations helped make my days better. When Jake said that he had a podcast with a friend as well, I had to know what it was and started listening

soon after. The banter between Jake and Brad is so enjoyable. I continue to listen because it brings laughter and joy to my week in a relatable,

clean, and God-honoring way. Tymon was such a wonderful addition, and I love hearing his comments. The community that was fostered out of this podcast is so kind, and the Facebook group is really entertaining. Even though I am often too shy to engage, although I'm trying to be better at that, give this a listen. You will not be disappointed. That's a top-to-bottom, just five-star review. That's great.

They covered it all. All three of us, Facebook group, yadda,ada, yada. Thanks. Thanks. Thanks. Thanks. Stacey in Dallas, five star review said, should have done this sooner. Finally, I write my five star review. I've been listening to Ghost Ranch for years and finally got to meet my old friend, Jake, after his show last night in Dallas. We rolled at the JFK joke. Oh yeah. It does hit a little harder in Dallas. I bet. I re reworded it a bit.

Yeah. Could you see people literally rolling? Cause if so, that was Stacy. I thought, I thought there was some sort of fire. Like what's going on? Stop dropping,

rolling the weed from small fires. Uh, he was just as pleasant in person as I knew he would be. Thank you for signing my son's artwork. She says, Oh yeah, that was fun. Yeah.

I saw this woman like in light, you know, she's's artwork, she says. Oh, yeah, that was fun. Yeah, I saw this woman, like, in line. You know, she's, like, a few people back. I'm like, did she make me, like, a little book or something? But it was, like, her son's, like, book that I signed. It was really cool. Oh, that's cool. She has two young boys and can only hope they grow up to have the character of Jake and Brad.

Listen to how they talk about their wives, their friendships, and their faith, and consider it hashtag goals for how to raise sons. And if they grow up to have your guys' humor too, that would be a major plus. All right. Thanks, Stacy and Dallas. That was very kind. That is nice.

Never take those things for granted, those compliments. So very cool. Thanks, Stace. Yeah, appreciate you guys. Brad, do you have a review for this episode? Stacy and Dallas. Okay, go for it. Would you like to do this episode with me? Finally time Okay. Go. Do you, would you like to say,

finally time? Um, I don't have one. I, I, I'm sorry guys. That's okay. It's okay.

It's it's, it is okay. I know it's okay, but it's also like, I need to get one. Do you get one going? Um, Christopher Bonin wrote one about the airplane song,

the B.O.B. So I need to, I need to get that. Oh, that was a good song. I think that one might have a rap for you in it. So we'll,, the B.O.B. song. I need to get that one out. Oh, that was a good song. I think that one might have a rap for you in it. Yeah, B.O.B. was it? Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. So we'll get there. Okay. But not this time. So, Tymon, just sing any song you want right now. Just sing it. Wade in the water. Okay. Wade in the water. Okay. Wade in the water, children.

Wade in the water. God's gonna trouble the water. I said, Wade in the water. Wade in the water, children. Wade in the water. God's gonna trouble the water, children wade. Wow. In the water. God's gonna trouble the water. Okay, we do that for Robin. That was great.
