Now somewhere in the black mining hills of Dakota there lived a young boy named Rocky Raccoon. One day his woman ran off with another guy, hitting young Rocky in the eye. Rocky didn't like that, he said, I'm gonna get that boy. So one day he walked into town, booked himself a room in the local saloon. Oh, Jake, the raccoon's back. I don't know if it ever left. The scat? The scat's not there, but the other night, Catherine was gone. I had put Rosie to bed, was reading a story to Bo and Hattie on the couch.

Literally the very last page of Berenstain Bears and the Great Pumpkin, I look up because I see something out of the corner of my eye. The main door in our back door is open. The storm door is closed, obviously. And who should be there but the raccoons staring straight into our living room. I'm imagining hind legs on, like on the glass. Kinda. Really?

Yeah. And I go, guys, guys, look. And of course, Bo, you know,

whoa, no. And how he's like, okay. Like, and Bo just runs up to it. And how he's like, Bo,

whatever you do, do not open that door. That's great. And it kind of, and we kind of see it screw off a little bit. It's like, Bo, whatever you do, do not open that door. That's great. And we kind of see it scurry off a little bit. It's like, guys, look at where it's going, where it's happening. Where is his home? And it was going and it was looking through our bin that we have right next to it with like the balls and the bats.

It wanted to play. It just wanted to play. Honestly, it was the best thing for me. It was a cute little guy. Oh, they're all cute. I know. But the one experience I've had face-to-face with a raccoon, it was not cute. It hissed and freaked me out.

It's still there because I think my mother-in-law claimed that she saw it last night. I did not. Okay. But it's still there. We think I'm going to have to pay some money to get it removed. $250. For raccoon removal.

Could I do it myself? It's like just on the cusp of like, that's a lot of money. I should at least try something myself. Is that a flat rate or does he come and like scope out the amount of raccoons and the deck and everything? They said it might be more, but base rate, 175 to trap it, another 75 to get rid of it. And I'm not

getting rid of it. If they're doing it, they're going all the way. 175 to trap it. Huh. Yeah, I don't know. Is there any animal that you would try to catch yourself versus

getting somebody else? A mouse, would you? Mouse seems how, yeah. Would, is there any animal that you would try to catch yourself versus like getting somebody else? Like a mouse? Would you mouse? Mouse seems like something I can do myself. Mouse traps, mouse traps. But if it's a rat,

let me hire somebody for it. Let's see. What would I hire? I mean, like what if you could, what if you just paid them to get rid of it? You trap it, they get rid of it.

That's what I would try to do. That's not a terrible idea, Jake. Yeah. Like get the, I can make a a trap and then once i see it in there i'm not getting near that thing yeah because that thing is thinking you trap me you you punk i'm gonna get you it's most mad at you yeah yeah but then they're maybe they're like hey we don't know how good of workmanship you have on this uh trap we don't just dispose I don't know if I trust you. So what if you could trap it, tranquilize it?

Yeah, just do it yourself. Trap it, tranquilize it, get rid of it. Maybe so. Put it in somebody else's yard. Where do you get tranquilizers these days? These days? Back in the day, they were so readily available. And how are they going to get rid of it? Truly, what are they going to do?

Yeah, maybe take it out to some farm. I don't know. The old raccoon farm. Yeah. Yeah. Wait, can we talk about tranquilizers real quick? Yeah, yeah, we can. I feel like in the 90s, or just growing up, kids' movies, tranquilizers were everywhere.

They were. You could, like, shoot them, like, out of a syringe or, like, a blow dart. When was the last time you've heard somebody talk about a tranquilizer? I bet if you're in the ag community, if you have horses, maybe you have tranquilizers. Timon? No tranks. We don't tranquilize our horses. Really?

Okay. Okay. No tranks. They're not vaccinated. I don't know. Who is tranking these days? I don't know if anybody's tranking like i think it's a it's a lot it's like the quicksand of weaponry it's like i don't think this really exists people

are really trying to worry about these like tranquilizer darts not happening anymore so i'm gonna google horse tranquilizer okay um kansas city oh like a service. It's like, yeah. Oh, geez. Missouri and Kansas are in the thick of a synthetic drug crisis that's killing thousands. Okay, so humans are taking the horse. Okay. Fun, fun. Good Google, Gabe.

I will say, real quick to wrap this bad boy up, right before the movie we watched on Friday Night Movie Night, right before the raccoon came to our door, Davy Crockett. What's Davy Crockett known for? A certain kind of headpiece. What's that headpiece called? A coonskin cap. That raccoon was coming for blood, brother.

It's like, I'm avenging my brother, who you were celebrating by watching Davy Crockett. That's a perfect gift, though, for Bo coming up, though. Oh, you bet, dude. Koon's Cane Hat. Both of them are going to be rocking the Koon's Cane this summer, or this Christmas. 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 Brothers Podcast. Every Monday morning we're taking round Ghost Brothers Podcast. Ghost Brothers Podcast.

Let's get started with Wednesday episode, huh? Yeah, hopefully more Coonskins hats and less DEA warns of flesh-rotting zombie drug mixed with horse tranquilizer. Yay! Good vibes! Yeah, Wednesday! Oh, yeah.

Jeez. It's nothing but... Flesh-rotting zombie drug is quite the article. Tough to find a tranquilizer in town. All right. It's Wednesday, episode 589. The Ghost Hunters podcast presented to you by Good Ranchers, American Meat Delivered.

That's right. Hey, there was a big concert in town this past Friday. Benjamin Rector. That's right. And he posted a video of him. Did you see this? He does the classic... I have beef with it a little bit.

It's kind of annoying. But then when it's your city, I don't get annoyed by it. Where he's like, you know, whatever. Milwaukee was an amazing show on count three, one, two, three. Everyone goes crazy. Kansas City, they did this funny new thing where he's like, one, two, three. And then one guy started clapping and then everyone went crazy. Catherine and her sister, I'm telling you crazy. Um, Catherine and her sister,

I'm telling you, it's cause Catherine, her sister were at the concert. And so in the video, I was trying to zoom in and find Catherine's sister or Catherine. I'm not just trying to find it. Interesting. Uh, trying to find Catherine and her sister. And later on, Catherine's like, Oh no, I don't think you can see us in that video. Um, but as I'm zooming in, so, you know, he says one, two, three, let's go crazy. And then one guy starts doing a slow clap and I'm zooming in and I noticed a few people like turn back and I'm like, wait a second. There's a second clapper. No. Oh, I think I've never met the guy, but I'm pretty sure that was Brandon Imch. No, no, no, no. I'm sorry. No, I wish I could say

yes, but no. Okay. Now we got to pull it up because there was a woman right by him that looked like your mom. Really? And maybe it's just like selective, like, well, if that's him, then that's it. That's her. That's seriously. I even thought like, good for them. They got eight kids and they're getting out for this movie night or this concert? No. No.

Okay. You were so certain that was him clapping? I was so pumped. Like I was even trying to like tell the story quick because I didn't want Tymon to interrupt me and be like,

well, yeah, my parents were there. As I was zooming in the picture, well, yeah, my parents were there. Maybe you saw them in the, I was like, no, really? Yeah, no.

Tymon. So was it, it was the guy slow clapping you thought was my guy? No, no, no. There's a guy that starts slow clapping and then there's a guy, let's say, we'll say five rows back that kind of turns his head and looks. And then right after he turns his head and looks, there's a woman right behind him that turns her head and looks as well.

And I think that is Brandon and Maria. Yeah. That's my mom's name. Yeah. It's my mom's name. Yeah. It's not? Are you finding the video? I'm trying to find it.

Yeah, I'm trying to look. Like if you zoom, I mean, this is not great podcast content anymore because no one knows what they look like, I guess. But I was just so convinced, dude. You know what they look like, Jake? Not. I mean, you've met her. Yeah, yeah, yeah. my dad's like half bald

basically yes dude are you sure are you sure they weren't there like i i i'm so convinced that this is the last place you would ever find my parents really i mean i was like ben rector cool like no wonder because i know you're a big Cody Fry guy, so maybe you've influenced there. Oh, man. Now I'm just trying to find people I know. What a start. This is cool. He performed at the same Vinny the Train I just did.

Exactly. Yeah, isn't that cool? Yeah. Yeah, hate to disappoint. Dang it, dude. I hate that I disappointed as well. Okay, I'm going to zoom in on this guy that I think it's him.

Whatever. We can talk about this off the pod, but it's him. I'm just letting you know your parents are playing hooky. That woman is your mom. I know it. I know your mom. I met her once. I don't care that you've lived with her your whole life. That's your mom. Sneaking out of the house.

Going to concerts. The last place that your parents whole life. That's your mom. Sneaking out of the house, going to concerts. The last place that your parents would be. That's so funny. Rachel was also at that concert. Yeah. She goes with some friends. I have a show that night. And right before I'm about to go on stage, I get a text from Rachel.

We haven't talked in a while. And it's just a single text. It just comes through. It just says, I sleep with my best friend too. I was like, that's an odd text to get. Okay. What does that mean?

Yeah. Was this meant for me? What's going on? You know, like having to figure this out. Oh, Ben Rector. Yeah,

yeah. Yeah, yeah. Spoiler. Sorry, sorry. A video came later, and it was a video of Ben Rector singing that song.

Living my best life. Yeah, whatever he says. But yeah, I had to go up and perform, just wondering, what in the world does that text mean? I sleep with my best friend, too. Yeah, you live with Maddie, but I don't know you guys were at the same bed. Like, which friend is this? I hope she meant to text me. Jeez, what is going on

as soon as i got off stage my dad sent me a text that said let's see a picture of that griddle griddle griddle no context no nothing i was like is that related what's going on here am i missing like a group text that everyone else is seeing they just said yeah let's see a picture of that griddle and then i didn't know what to text back. 30 minutes later, he said, wrong person. It's like, oh. But he was excited to see that griddle. He wants to see somebody's griddle.

I don't know. Oh, that's fun. So yeah, just thought of that. Been wrecked her night. It was fun. I don't know if Catherine wants me to tell people this. Well, whatever. But she literally right in the row in front of her.

I think the reason I don't know if she wants people to know this is because she might be like, Brad, now you're going to like make me feel bad about not saying something. There was a girl right in front of her that had a grande boo shirt on, like in the row in front of her. No way. Yeah. Crazy. That's fun that she thought to wear a grande boo shirt to have been record.

I know I was. And she had told me, Hey, Brittany Jones, our friend, is at the concert. And so I saw this girl and I was like, oh, is she wearing a Grande Boucher? And I even realized Brittany was at Grande Boucher. But I was like, cool. And then she's like, no, it's just a different person wearing a Grande Boucher. Cool. So if it's you, thanks.

Shout out. Shout out. Catherine saw you. Thanks for being there. That's pretty fun. Anyway, yeah. The night of that happening was a really special night i put this on my story but i don't know if the if the interim story really fully told the story and i

think you'll appreciate this so a very fun scenario going on so we were joking all weekend like we did a show in dallas while the rangers had a playoff game kind of a bummer competing that we had a show in houston while the ash was had a playoff game then we go to bummer competing in that. We had a show in Houston while the Astros had a playoff game. Then we go to Austin while there's an F1 race, which is a massive deal in Austin. They only had to do so many of those. So we were just, you know, unfortunate timing all weekend. It's a big sports weekend in Texas. San Antonio

just barely missed their home opener with Wiminyama. That would have been a bummer too. So Houston night, that game was a 4pm kickoff. So it's getting over which that's so stupid yeah that they started that time the baseball is already like like struggling being relevant and then they're like hey some of the most important games of the year let's put them on a weekday at 3 p.m 4 p.m like 2 p.m yeah it's hard for people to attend that in person dude yeah it's hard for

people to watch it on tv yeah like yeah it's just weird it is kind of interesting issue going on but so this game is ending at about seven uh our tour manager comes to say hey what do you guys want to do it's 7 p.m right now we've only got about 20 of the people in the doors like everyone is waiting for this game to get over he can see the ticket sales like he knows that people have bought tickets are just not there yet yeah we've got all the data looking at it and so we're like yeah i mean i guess we gotta wait till this game is over it's the top of the ninth the astros are losing and we're able to get a feed on our green room tv and it's a feed of a camera in the back of the theater. Okay. You know, so if you imagine that POV, you're at the back of a Drake Kitty show.

Yeah. But that feed is showing us some people in the first few rows, and it's also showing us the projector screen. The people in the theater put on the Astros game. Yeah. And so kind of an interesting move. We didn't like ask for that because in a sense, we're like, well, it's the top of the night. They're down two to four.

Everyone in the audience is about to see the Astros lose. Yeah. And then we just have to go perform. Yeah. That's kind of a bummer. Like, probably not the way we would prefer it. Right. But we're watching.

We're watching. And then they rally. The Astros hit a three-run homer to go ahead in the top of the night. So then we're freaking out. Like, this is awesome. Yeah. This turned into, like, such a cool thing. It went from, like, none of us wanting to go out and perform. Like, I don't want to go out there. I of the night. So then we're freaking out. Like, this is awesome. Okay, this turned into such a cool thing. It went from none of us wanting to go out and perform.

Like, I don't want to go out there. I'd rather the Astros lose. Everyone is just going to be so bummed. And then it's just chaos. So then the entire bottom of the ninth, we are rooting so hard for the Astros to close out this game. Runner gets on first, no outs.

Runner's on first and second, no outs. We're like, oh my gosh. This game's going to go to extra innings. Right. And then what do we do? Can we start the show with this game still going on? You shouldn't. They're already too invested now.

I know, but it's like, I mean, there's no telling when it's going to get over. And there's going to be people out in the audience that don't care about the game. And they, yeah. There's going to be Brandon Maria Mshas out there. The last place you'd see me is an Astros game. Is this cricket? I don't even know. And so we're trying to figure out

what do we do about this? It's such a unique scenario. And anyway, the Astros end up closing it out and the crowd goes crazy. Could you hear it from your green room? Oh, dude, it was so loud. That's awesome. It was so fun.

So it ended up being a really cool environment, amazing atmosphere. Thank goodness the Astros won or else that would have been a bummer. Just a hole to kind of dig yourself out of. Like it would have been fine by the time Trey went up there, but Lucas would have had a rough go of it. Lucas was with us all weekend. Um, but Lucas did make a funny joke because he went out on stage and he's like, that whole thing transpiring is a lot like, uh, felt like my childhood. Like, uh, I was like,

can I show you guys what I can do? And you like after the game wait till after the game then you can show us yeah sports are on have you already shown mom mom's already seen it she sent you to me okay well after the game after the game you can show me that is funny it was it was a great just like opening joke man playoff baseball in the hometown like if it's your team your hometown team is so electric yeah like like playoff football is fun but baseball is so much more elongated and so much rides on every pitch and it's like so much more dramatic of like here we go there's a pitch let's hope something crazy happens and it doesn't it's like oh maybe something's gonna happen crazy next and then you never baseball is wonderful because it's never over until there's three

outs in the ninth inning. Like you can be down seven runs and still have a chance to win. Yeah. Whereas like in football, you're down by 21 points. The fourth quarter is over. There's time. You're competing against time. Right.

I'm sure if we were more into basketball, I bet basketball has similarities to baseball and the fact that you have a seven game series. Every basket is huge. Yes. Cause yeah. Football just, it's over so quick. You have 60 minutes worth.

It's one game, right? Like baseball is just so fun. Yeah. Do I, I miss those electric days in Kansas city, the playoff baseball. So that pumps me up that like they were going so nuts in Houston.

Yeah. We got a taste of it. Yeah. I mean, that's great. I haven't cared that much about a baseball game in so long. My heart rate, I was like nervous

about an Astros-Rangers game. Were you a little bit bummed that you weren't the very first person out there? Because I think, Lucas doesn't strike me as a huge sports guy. Not really.

No, he's not. Whereas I think you would have used that momentum so hard. Right? I probably would have like, we have any jose altuve fans out there who brought their trash cans with them yeah uh but it was sort of really fun it was a really good show that's the show that the uh good rangers people were at um a lot of ghosties

there had some good crowd work that night um woman was from a town, a suburb called Friendswood. That's where... Yeah, that's where Ben and Gordian are from as well. Yeah, they told me afterwards. And so I had some good jokes about that just because I was like, that sounds like a sentence or whatever. Like, hun, you should come to the Trey Kennedy show.

I don't really want to, but I bet your friends would. Friends would. Hey, did you bring a casserole to those people? No, we're not that close. Friends would. Something like that. Well, friends would.

Well, friends would. Last thing about the Houston show afterwards, someone was like, I loved you tonight. You were so fun. Remind me your name again. What's your last name? And I said, Triplett. She's like, ah, we were all talking.

We thought it was Boots. Boots? So close. Let's talk about was Boots. Boots? So close. Talk about good ranchers. Boots? Yeah, that was pretty funny. Had to write that down. Oh, Triplett.

Are you sure it's not Boots? We thought it was Jingle Bells. Oh, okay. Jake Boots and Brad Deuce. Yeah. We go on some tours, baby. I don't hate Jake Boots. I think that's so funny, though.

Old Jay Boots. Oh, we thought it was boots uh what did you just say that no it's not no stilettos was my maiden name it's triplet that's so funny that you thought it was boots that is boots oh wow boots what did you say that like i'm just like what what did you say on stage that they thought you were saying your name yeah was it something i said no no here's is it a rumor where jake triplet said by michael right give it up for jay what do you think could you hear it a little bit yeah that is fun michael wasn't with us this weekend d DJ Travis? We didn't have a DJ.

Really? No DJ. So that's why you had the... We had the Astros game. That's our DJ. That's fair. Yeah. Oh, man. Good times.

Jake Boots. I think Jake Boots needs to be some kind of alter ego of yours. When I perform down south. Hey, guys, I'm going to Jake Boots tonight. Just FYI. People know that means you're going to be a little bit more like, I don't know what the word is, not sensitive, but just meaner to your crowd work.

You're not going to be as... There was no redeeming qualities to these conversations. It's just like, get a life. You guys met online? Ew. You're going to be harsh to these people. Hey, Jake Boots is out tonight. It's time.

It's time for you to hear the real story. Made up sayings. Go full on Jake Boots on them. I was all on Jake Boots, dude. I don't know what happened, but I just Jake Booted big time out there. You would have appreciated it. I just thought of this.

At the Dallas show, I was doing a little picky eater bit that I do. I asked what she said. She was a picky eater. I was like, okay,. And I asked her what she said. She was a picky eater. So I was like, okay, great. And I was done talking to her and I'm doing my bit. And then she just starts yelling.

Like, you know, I'm not even talking to her, but she yells like, what time I spent 24 hours locked in a room without peas. And I was like, this lady's yelling out Mr. Beast titles at me right now. That's amazing. That's crazy. What other Mr. Beast challenges have you done with peas? That's amazing. That's crazy. What other Mr. Beast challenges

have you done with peas? That's crazy. That's so funny. She was, yeah, she was interesting. And I feel like I did go, sorry,

full circle. I did go Jake Boots on her. You did. Because later, I forget what I was saying, but I just like, I had a call back. I was like,

it was, it was the worst. I did not want to do it. I would rather be locked in a room with that woman for 24 hours. I don't know what I'm talking about. Trying sushi or something. But yeah, I like Jake Boots. Jake Bootsake boots dude a little rough around the edges yeah maybe just maybe wear some boots maybe maybe get a little country on them white

wash tight jeans you want a white you'd be a white wash kind of country boy i think it goes along with the boots do you yeah maybe a little belt buckle big one what kind of what kind of belt buckle you have just the outline of tex Texas with the American flag in the middle of it. Cool. Colored. Or just- Rustic. Or plated.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Fun. I got rear-ended this week. Did you really? By a car? It was so odd. Yeah. So I was stopped at a stop sign.

And I had my- I had like a slab, like a tabletop for Mel's custom creations. I was building in the back. I had a slab of good ranchers, Wagyu beef on the bed. Yeah. You know, just cooking up some beef. It was sunny.

No, I, I mean, I had a long tabletop in the back. Like I bet it was, I think it was like 13 feet long and my bed is six and a half feet plus the tailgates. Another we'll call it eight feet. And so it was probably hanging off long. And my bed is six and a half feet plus the tailgate's another, we'll call it eight feet. And so it was probably hanging off a good five feet. Wow. So I don't know if the guy just didn't see how long this piece of wood was or what, but I was just literally stopped there.

And all of a sudden, I don't know. Like I kind of took a second, like I was like trying to figure out if I want to go left or right. And I was like, and so maybe he just thought I was about to go assumed all of a sudden this was like a i just look back and this guy's not even like like reacting at all he's like go i looked up and i was like i just go what are you doing and then i just stared at him for like 10 seconds and he wasn't getting out of his car and i was was like, I think we got to get out of our cars at least. And he gets out of his car.

He's like, oh, my bad, man. And I'm like, it's okay. You okay, man? He's like, yeah, I'm good. And I just look and there's like no big scratches or anything. Like there's one little dent on the wood. Did he hit your car or only the table? No, no, no. Just the, I mean, it's like I'm saying, it's hanging off like five feet.

So he's just, the front of his car hit your tabletop. Yeah. And so his car had like one of his car hit your tabletop. Yeah. And so his car had like one of his headlights was broken off. Oh, wow. Like broken through. He's like, I'm good. Everything's good. And I'm like, all right.

Well, I think we're fine here. But I was like, if I didn't get out of my car, was he just going to just like go, dude? What are you doing? Left or right? What the heck? Choose. Let's go. So it was just a very odd like, what's

your thought process here, man? He was smoking you out. He was like, I don't want to go first. I don't know. I don't want to leave the steam room first. Yeah, exactly. He's like, yeah, heating me up. But anyway, kind of a random. That's funny. You haven't been any kind of vehicular altercation in a while. Any kind no no me either it was just an odd like okay i think

we're supposed to get out of our cars and so the tabletop was fine yeah it's a good wood it's great wood yeah very hard wood high quality uh cedar no look it's a wood you're right mahogany let's go back and forth no hold on hold on hickory yes pine okay bad not softwood wait you said yes i got it oh yeah oh i got it well keep going i was trying to guess the type of wood no no no this i was oh types of wood no it was it's not any of these types of wood so far pine okay plywood ply no plywood the old plywood tree is it a type of what i don't know am i doing the game or not am i doing types of wood am i doing guesses of tabletops you're doing types of wood plywood not really a type of it's like uh i got some types of woods just kind of types of trees right fair oh okay i'm trying to think I don't know if any of these are ever used for wood. Bradford pear.

I think pear wood is a thing sometimes. Okay. Cherry. Cherry. Very good. Nice wood. Gets redder over time. Fun fact.

Makes sense why they call it cherry. Yeah. I'm just going to, now I'm just thinking of fruit trees, which are not used for wood. Guava. Yeah. Apple wood. Don't own any apple woods out there. Adjacent. Maple. Maple. Good wood. Yeah't own any Applewoods out there. Adjacent?

Maple. Maple. Goodwood. Man, I'm struggling. There's a common one you guys are missing. And then a very popular one. I got one more in the hopper. Kansas and Missouri.

Common one? Man. Friends. Friendswood. Friendswood. Oak. Yes, oak. Wait, that's the first thing you said.

I said cedar. Oh, shoot. I was thinking oak. I thought you were going to say it. Walnut, another really popular one. This one was ash. Oh, they make a lot of baseball bats out of ash. Correct.

Probably why there's no damage. Ash and hickory are the baseball woods. Okay. I think. I know it's definitely ash, but yeah, hardwood, quality wood. So anyway, that was kind of random. It happened. That's pretty cool.

Yeah. Would you say your tabletop was like really strong? Like when the guy was like, oh, did I do anything with your table? What did you say back? I said, no, it's a pretty strong wood. You ruined it. When they asked me how strong my table was,

I pointed to my biceps and I said, it's so strong! There it is. There's the payoff I was hoping for. That made a fun noise, bicep to mic. It was kind of rattling a little. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Who's stronger? Who's stronger who's stronger oh left one's good yeah what do you guys think those are biceps hitting the microphone oh baby so strong he's back again so strong take you on so strong for eat by any moms. Nice, dude. I like how to... I don't know. Hey, let's do a quick hashtag. Flavor without fake ingredients. That's so strong for you.

We're the first podcast they sponsored. They're also, I think, this is probably the first Schmores they've ever sponsored too. Yeah. Let's do it. Let's do it. Let's do it. We talked about it last week. We kind of teased it.

Wait, did we? Yeah, yeah, we did. Yeah, yeah. I had the idea, but I was like, oh, that's kind of tough to do off the dome. Yes. Yeah, we decided to do gross animals instead. Which, oh, we need to check.

Tymon said before the episode that I was winning. Brad is. Brad's back? Yeah, he's very, very winning. From memory, I thought I did all right. Just the animals I chose. Oh, I'm in last. That's how it always is.

Dude, seriously, though. Oh, I forgot. Never mind. I did those weird animals. I did a proboscis monkey and an elephant seal. So never mind. I think someone commented on something. They thought that long-nosed monkey was kind of cute.

Oh, wow. Caleb Leach says, that monkey was one of my favorite animals growing up. Really? I had a stuffed animal of it holding a Coke bottle. Caleb Leach is also a Cardinals fan. I'm pretty sure my younger siblings liked that monkey too. Really? Sorry about that. Anna Imch right here

voted against Jake. Didn't vote for Jake or for Tymon or Brad, just no Jake. Wow, Brad has 70% of the vote. That's crazy. I am not doing much better at all than you though. Yeah, it's like 17% versus 15% on my screen.

I think you guys chose things that you had to Google and look at and so I don't know if everyone's that invested in schmores. Yeah, no one knows what a rat is. Or a ferret. Hey, blobfish, Tymon. Long-nosed ferret. All right, hey, blobfish timing. But that- Long-nosed monkey.

When you look it up, it's worth it. Elephant's ear. It's like wet Play-Doh. That's what I'm saying. If you look it up, that's my point. Okay, so this week is movie cliches. Yep. Pretty open-ended.

And I get to choose the order. Yeah, I think it is going to be open-ended. These might be phrases. These might be characters. These might be plot lines. Yep. I don't know how to compare open-ended. These might be phrases. These might be characters. These might be plot lines. Yep. I don't know how to compare them. I know.

Figure it out. I'm going to go Jake, Ty, and Brad because I need to get you guys to show me exactly what the themes are here because I have some random things written down. All right. Movie cliches. There's a clear one. Shut it.

Is there? Well, there's definitely a clear one too the second pick is obvious the first one's all right i'm gonna go with uh the phrase often seen in movies it's quiet oh too quiet too quiet yeah it's good what what movie does that make you think of all of them them. Do you have one in mind? No, I think it's a lot of just like Disney Channel type shows, Drake and Josh type shows, just like things that were meant for like 12 to 18-year-olds to consume. You're seeing a lot.

No, even 6 to 16-year-olds. Like that's the demo. That's the demo, right? It's quiet. Too quiet. I don't know about you, Tyler. I specifically think of Shrek when they like enter into the city

and he says it. It's quiet. It's too quiet. Yeah. Nice. All right. My first pick. This is the first one I thought of,

first one I wrote down. Hacker. Type, type, type, type, type, type. We're in. Yeah. That's good. Yeah. We're in. Yeah, that's good. Yeah. We're like, does that exist? Some like, is that, is that some somewhat of an accurate thing?

Like, can somebody really from their computer hack through a system of like, that's, I feel like that goes along with a lot of other things I wrote down. Like hackers just, I don't know, just hackers. Yeah. In movies. wrote down like hackers just i don't know just hackers yeah in movies have you ever seen those youtube videos where it's like you know we talked to an actual uh like military sniper and had him break down the most famous sniper scenes in movies oh something like that like we talked to a bank robber about bank robbing scenes in movies i've clicked on that video before like we talked to an actual hacker about this, and he ranked some of the movies. He's like, this one's not accurate.

This one's ridiculous. But he's like, there was some movie I never heard of. This is actually what it looks like. This is what you would do. Oh, okay. I think very rarely are we seeing an accurate depiction of hacking. Yeah, the ones that we've never heard of. There's probably a reason because it's not as fun to watch.

It's so accurate. Like the hackers, it feels like they're always, their computer's always on dark mode. Can't you ever just have a nice, aesthetically pleasing hacking? fun to so accurate like like the hackers it feels like like it feels like they're always their computers always on dark mode like can't you ever just have like a nice green letters pleasing like hacking system at the yeah green letters and black background like like making all this noise exactly what i think i think of like national treasure the guy in the van yeah it's like he's like just writing all this stuff yeah right you type in like one like prompt and then the whole screen fills up with the last right uh if anyone saw night agent recently rachel i really did enjoy it but it was

there was some wild stuff going on when it comes to the technology of like oh really let me just hop on this hot spot do you need the white house oh we didn't hack into the white house that's a problem no problem i'm like a hot young girl that's in my skill set easy yeah that's really fortunate uh fun fact jensen's friend is that guy, Gabe. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Gabe Basso, Basso, whatever. Gabe Wad. Gabe Wad.

All right. My first one is going to be like, this is like a comedy cliche. Okay. And they're saying something, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, and then they kind of zoom out and they go, they're behind me aren't they you know what i'm talking about yeah we talked about it on the podcast last week yeah we did we talked about it multiple times on the podcast recently jake jake you said oh crap you and

rachel did it all the time yeah yeah yeah yeah okay well i don't want to use that one then we were oh it must have been in the subconscious he's right behind me yeah yeah shoot all right that shows how much i remember all right i'll take it back take it back i feel like it's oh is that okay you don't want it well it's back up on the board yes back up on the board back up on the board i don't know i don't i got enough other things written down um okay what about the term or just the phrase there's no time to explain oh that's good there's no time to explain come on we gotta go we gotta go right now yeah there's no time to explain it's like you could probably explain it in 10 seconds

yeah that's a good point um so i think that's just a funny random one time to explain yeah there's yeah that's that's that's a good point there's no time to explain okay and then the one this this comes at like the climax of the movie. It's a fight scene of some sort. It seems like the main character, the main protagonist is about he's battling this guy and he's back against the wall,

lost all his weapons. He's gone. He's done. The bad guy pulls up the gun to shoot him and all of a sudden the bad guy gets shot. He got shot by the side character who you think is dead or was taped up or something. Like, what? Oh, Steve Martin, when'd you get here?

And boom, got him. It's like, you forgot about me. At this point, oh, I can't tell if you, you would like half stole one of my list, but not really. Okay. And then like, it'd be like a really cheesy phrase afterwards like like if there's a girl it's like i guess girls can aim

it's too close they let him up like and and yeah yeah i'm not gonna say this one so this this is what i thought of was someone getting shot and then falling back to reveal the person that shot them like unexpectedly oh yeah it's like it's like the person with the them like unexpectedly. Oh yeah. It's like it's like the person with the gun still like smoking. Yeah. Yeah. All right. Time. I feel like I've got a lot. I'm going to say guns

slash arrows never needing reloaded. Okay. Unlimited ammo all the time. It is amazing. That's a good one. Yeah. Yeah. Just like like especially That's a good one. Yeah. Just like, especially arrows is a great example. There's a very, I feel like there's got to be a pretty low limit to how many arrows you can.

Right. And just the way people use arrows in movies. Bow and arrows. Like, just like one second. Yeah. And you're just. It's like, what? No.

That's. Can not be how that works. Yeah. And you're just, it's like, what? No, that's, cannot be how that works. Yeah. Cause I, yeah, I had to teach archery. I had to get trained on how to teach archery. And there's a lot of like,

you know, the arrow is got a little like feather on each side and you have to like, yeah, make sure it's, you're aiming at the right side. So you'd have to look at it like, oh, I gotta,

yeah, get the groove in the right thing to where it goes in the, get it in the string. All right. Now now there we go hold on uh there we go oh you're left-handed maybe we can excuse susan and narnia for being kind of there's like magic or like okay lens on her side maybe okay but still yeah no that's good that's fun um i was looking through my uh time i saw this i had there, hack into the mainframe as part of mine. They love the mainframe. Yeah, just hacker. I'm not going to do that.

Timing took it. We're going to go with just the term four eyes. You don't see that often in real life ever, but man, is that nerd getting called four eyes in every middle school, elementary, high school movie. Well, well, well, look who it is, four eyes. The word, the term, well, well, well, the phrase well, well, well. Yeah, I can just combine these.

Yeah, but yeah, just calling clearly the nerdy looking kid four eyes. And making it seem like it's the most devastating insult of all time. Oh, you couldn't see, so you went and got prescription lenses so you can finally see? Hey there, 2020. Like, yeah, I have good vision now.

Yeah, four eyes. Like, oh, I can't believe he called me four eyes. He thinks these, this bully thinks these glasses are an extra set four eyes. Like, oh, I can't believe he called me four eyes. Oh, my gosh. This bully thinks these glasses are an extra set of eyes. They're just prescription lenses. Yeah, that's so embarrassing to me. I'm the only one at school with glasses. Oh, it's not like half the adults in the school are wearing glasses as well.

It's a wild cliche. Four eyes. That's good. What do they call the people with contacts? Glass eyes. Glass eyes. Concave eyes. Yeah, hey,

there are stigmatisms. No. The guy astigmatized me. So yeah, just the term four eyes. Movie cliche. Yeah. We're going to go with

next. This is a character cliche cliche woman from the big city is focused on her career and doesn't want a relationship right now oh yeah the old sandy bullock and proposal sandy sandy little sando bullock old sandoz yeah um yeah say that again woman is woman from the big city is focused on her career it doesn't want a relationship right now okay so madison mccall have fun with that emoji she'll do the little like uh no i don't know if she'll do that that what's this nail polish nail polish emoji you think nice no i don't know maybe she'll do a briefcase there's a woman in a suit how dare you jake think that there's not like a woman in a suit. How dare you, Jake, think that there's not a woman in a suit emoji?

Well, I just thought of it and I said woman in a suit. Before that, I had forgotten. It doesn't want a relationship. Yeah, okay. These are fun. That's good. I have a lot of good ones, honestly, I gotta say. We'll be the judge of that.

Yeah. I just have a lot of ones that I'm going to have fun honorable mentioning. I feel like the same, but I got to think of. Um, okay. I kind of want to group like kind of label a lot of school things as a cliche. Okay. So that's smart for you. I should have labeled phrases as a cliche.

You just done all the phrases on my list. I'm just kidding. Go ahead. Okay. These are, maybe I'll just choose one of these, but I'm thinking of any establishing shot of a school always has a bell ringing at that exact moment.

Oh, that's good. Every single time. That's really good. Without fail. That's a good observation. And then. That was so good.

I'll give you one more. Go ahead. Group it into your school one. Um, maybe, maybe I'm just going to your school one. Maybe I'm just going to use that one. Oh, okay. I might have some honorable mentions about school stuff.

That's an astute observation. It is funny. Being married to Catherine, who was homeschooled, she does think, or she had thought, a lot of those things are what happens in school. That's exactly how it is. The last day, oh, I've got to give one away, but whatever. The last day of school, throwing the papers in the air. Catherine's like, that's how it is. I guess. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I'm going to have fun saying the school ones. I feel like, yeah, yeah, yeah. I guess we

could riff on that a little bit more later, but yeah. Like the idea, I feel like in movies, you always see people like hanging out outside before school, like when they're walking in, dude, it was a madhouse, like high school, like four minutes before school started. Everyone's late. And my class was four minutes walk away. No one's ever outside. No one's just loitering outside by their cool car. We don't have a letter. Yeah. Yeah. We don't have tables. We have indoor hallways. That's totally. I'm never outside during school. A hundred percent. Um, okay. Uh, let's see. Um, my next one at time, and I thought you were going to take it. It's very adjacent to your guns and arrows never needing reloaded. Uh, it's the bad guys can never accurately shoot and the good guys can never miss.

It's amazing. So I was watching Davy Crockett. We watched the, you know, second installment this past week, Davy Crockett and the River Pirates, and they had a bar fight scene. And it was amazing how long this bar fight took of people shooting 15 feet away from them and just missing Davy and George the entire time and Davy just mowing them down. I mean, just dominating these guys. Maybe I should have used that. Yeah, that's so good.

It's just wild how, I mean, so many scenes where it's like the bad guys can't hit the blind side of a barn ever there's 15 of them there's one Jack Bauer and Jack Bauer just takes them all down um so that's my first one and then the next one I'm gonna go with another quote and it's just gonna be um we've got company you know they're just like hey like into a watch or something an earpiece we've got company. You know, they're just like, hey, we've got company. Like into a watch or something, an earpiece. Yeah, whatever. We've got company.

Sergeant Marcus, we've got company. There's so many different ways. They're either looking at it on the CCTV. Uh-oh, take binoculars with my face. Looks like we've got company. Or they're trying to get out a certain way and they turn the corner and they see, looks like we've got company. We gotta go this way. You know, all the different ways.

Yeah, all these different things. We've got company just is such a fun way to say I'm ready to kill these guys. Bad guys are here? Let's freaking go. We're ready for them. We've got company? No problem. So it's kind of like a fun, hey, playful way of saying I'm ready to get down. It feels like act three is starting.

The final battle starting. So we've got company. We've got company. That's good. Have you guys ever seen the Drake, the type of guy memes? Yeah. Yeah. I feel like a lot of these are just like Drake, the type of guy to say we've got company

in a horror movie or something like that. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Okay. I've decided on my final pick and it's the quote you're gonna want to see this you're gonna want to take a look at this yeah it's like yeah it's it's the nerd the hacker maybe like come over here protagonist you're gonna want

to see this they're gonna take a look at this you may not like what you see yeah you're gonna want to see this there was like a i don't know i don't know how famous it was but a video i think it was that phrase or something similar to that where the guy said it in like 10 different ways for 10 different situations you guys are gonna want to take a look at this or like oh you guys are gonna want to take a look at this you know like all the and like would put a different caption for each of them. That's amazing. I like that a lot. You're going to want to see this. I feel like timing. I'm just so excited to get to all the honorable mentions.

I don't know how you rank these, so I'm just going to do one. The phrase, we can do this the easy way or the hard way. That was in so many shows and movies. That goes both ways. I think you see the good guys say that. Sometimes you see the bad

guys say that. Probably more often. That's because there's an easy way and a hard way for everybody. River goes both ways. It's the easy way and the hard way. Let me recap real quick. We got Jake says it's quiet. Too quiet. Let me recap them real quick. We got Jake says, it's quiet.

Too quiet. Jake says people called four eyes. A woman from the big city is focused on her career and doesn't want a relationship and says, we can do this the easy way or the hard way. Timon says, a hacker. We're in. Guns and arrows never need to be reloaded. A school bell ringing. And you're going to want to see this.

Brad says, there's no time to explain. Seeming like you're about to get killed and someone else random coming up and shooting the bad person. A bad guy can't shoot, but the good guys can amazingly shoot. Whatever. You see it. And last one, we've got company. So honorable mentions.

I've got so many. Let's just go around one at a time. All right. I only got three. So my first one was just like, just in general, the montage of good things happening. Yeah.

I love the act one montage. Like everything's going right. You know, the, the story, like the character is building steam, like getting steam, getting steam,

building steam, blowing off steam room. Just, you know, the momentum is getting there. Like in a sports movie, they just won 14 out of the last 17. You know. We got back on the bus this past weekend and Happy Gilmore was on.

Like that's, I feel like I'm in the mood to watch Happy Gilmore. That's kind of fun. And there was the montage where he finally figures it out. The jump around? His first tournament. It might be. Duh, duh, duh. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Run Around Suba in Little Big League is a great montage and we were talking about like do they make movies with montages this long anymore because it was like i mean it's a full song worth of montage yeah it was nice so fun so fun so i love that yours jake uh mine i i just have just the simple this is more of a visual one but just the guy who's just got done doing something not dusty or dirty at all. Brushing the hands off. Okay. You see that a lot in movies.

Maybe throwing a towel over. I mean, what are you cleaning? Yeah, yeah. I've never done that. Right. I've never, ever brushed my hands. Like, there's nothing so dusty and so faint on my hands that I needed to brush it off. Like, if something's on my hands that I needed to brush it off.

Like, if something's on my hands, I probably need to, like, scrub it under. I don't know. I just never see myself just like, what'll it be, Johnson? Like, why is a bartender, like, brushing their hands? What have you been up to? The brushing the hands drive me nuts. Yeah, getting all the dusty glasses out of this inventory for you. Oh, yeah. Bartender cleaning

the inside of a mug yeah with like a hanky uh williamson what are you doing around these parts williamson just last names only yeah yeah um you're you're todd's boy yeah yeah i could smell you uh one that i have i have a lot well start with one timing i'll say we got same all the order doesn't matter okay my god we're done with the schmores um one that i thought kind of hacker related just like photo enhancing dang it i almost went that with my fourth pick digitizing clarifying processing or analyzing enhance boom it's just like an entirely new picture oh yeah it just doesn't exist you can't make pixels where there's not pixels yeah yeah i had that written down you cannot make out who in the world's face this is enhance that

oh it's him enhance that like oh the italian my boss no now i got it yeah exactly you're gonna want to see that yeah all right my next one i just said the guy who's like cleaned up his act um but then like three quarters away through the movie you see like he encounters the uh people that he had in his previous bringing him back maybe he's got a decision to make like i'm thinking of keanu reeves and hardball you know he's like a degenerate gambler, and then he becomes this great coach to these kids. And then near the end of the movie, he's like, hey, why don't you come?

We got some juice on the Celtics game. Come on. He's like, I don't know if I should do that. I'm not into that anymore, kind of thing. So just that kind of idea of like, hey, come on back. You're one of us. You're not one of them kind of thing. Come on.

Remember how we used to run around back in the day? Yeah, why don't you come back to the hood? Come back to what you know. Yeah. That's a good one. Blindside, same thing. Remember when he goes back there and Sandy Bullock comes and saves him? Sando comes.

Which is all completely true according to Michael Orr right now. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's what he's saying in the lawsuit. Uh, I'm going to go. The hottest girl in the movie is mean and stuck up, but the slightly less attractive girl is really nice and humble. Okay.

Very good. Don't even have a specific movie in mind, but it feels like that's how they all were. It was like, Oh, clearly the most attractive one is going to be seen as kind of an enemy here. And she's kind of mean until the last,

like 5% of the movie. But then the one who's like, for some reason, supposed to be not as kind of an enemy here and she's kind of mean until the last like five percent of the movie but then the one who's like for some reason supposed to be not that attractive but clearly is she's a model an actress say one of the along with that everyone being way too attractive yeah it's just a general i mean it's like you can't really complain about it's like they're not gonna get just like yeah you guys didn't grow up in olathe apparently because that's how it is everyone's just babe 6A schools man yeah I always feel and maybe it's just because of their personalities but I always feel like the main character is way more attractive than the person who's supposed to be like the hot like

pretty girl that's annoying you're mean you're mean Lindsay Lohan's better than you be nice to four eyes one that I'm reading the perfect amount of last words before dying like immediately after saying them yeah you never get cut off like someone's like

someone's like on their death that are just like about to die but it's like they get just just the right amount out then they just like breathe their last breath and they die your father because like imagine how awkward it would be i always love your father. Cause like, imagine how awkward it would be. I always, I love her. Imagine how awkward it'd be if just like, someone's like,

and please tell Rachel. I love her. Or just, sorry, I'm not, not dead yet. Yo, you're saying like saying you can go now it's fine like i'll just die here yeah yeah yeah that's all that's all i wanted to say so like just do you mind just like i don't know just leave it like shut my eyes or something that's funny you say your dying phrase and you don't die right away

exactly that's really funny. Yeah. I always loved him. Seriously, like always. Never once did it waver. Never faltered. No, but like I knew from day one. What's going on with you? I'm sorry, man. I thought I timed it right.

I guess I didn't. Actually, wait. One more thing. That's good um i just had the idea of like like the last five minutes of something that you watched as being a dream that's just always an annoying cliche to me anything being a dream yeah it's just like oh is it like that whole thing that we just watched we thought that that was like too good to be true advancing part of the plot and all of a sudden it's like it was a dream okay, I guess we just wasted the last 10 minutes there.

Fun. Or yeah, like the whole opening of a movie being like, oh, I'm so into this. Then it's like, oh, it's a person telling someone about it. And it was just like vividly recapped. Oh, we're never going to see that character again. That was just his dream. That was just the story being told or whatever.

That was the first thing I think of is Toy Story 3. Remind me, Tymon. Which opens with this crazy, like, honestly, it's such a great opening. It's like this whole train sequence. Like, everyone's like,

the bad guys. Oh, yeah. And it's like so good. And then it's, oh, it's Andy playing with the toys. Which then again, that's kind of excusable.

It's like showing a kid's imagination. But it's also like, dude, this movie's so much larger scale. Like, this is gonna be awesome. But no, no hate to Toy Story 3.

It's amazing. Yeah. But yeah. Your turn. Look what the cat dragged in. Nice. That phrase. Yeah.

Don't hear that in real life much. Yeah. A lot in movies. Characters always have a window seat on a plane. Really? Fun fact. I just feel like, in general, planes are so much more pleasant in movies

than in real life. They're having normal, quiet conversations and are very spaciously sitting. And I'm just like, every time I'm in an airplane, and granted, it's because I'm a bigger guy, but I'm like, I am not very,

it's stuffy and not comfortable. The audio in airplane movies is probably way off because you can't whisper on an actual airplane. You have to talk at a decent volume. Like your headphones are turned up all the way if you want to listen to something. Yeah. Yeah. That's true.

Uh, yeah. Just like picturesque neighborhoods. Like, like even just like in like a small town, like how many small towns are there out there that are just like perfectly manicured neighborhoods? Yeah. You know what I mean? Like, that's just not realistic at all. And a lot of times it's like they're in picturesque neighborhoods and the family is like a very

lower middle class or even lower class family. Yeah. And it's like, gosh, that house is probably a half million dollar house. You know? Yeah. I was thinking about that watching E.T. I don't know what their income is supposed to be, but inside the house, pretty normal, pretty average, but it's like this neighborhood,

just like the houses are so far apart. It's gorgeous, like LA. Yeah. It's like, wait a second. I have not found a neighborhood like that. That's like humble yet amazing. You know what I mean? It's either not that nice or very nice,

and everyone knows it. Yeah. What about whole family eating a really hearty breakfast to start their day? Okay. Like before school, before work. I don't know if you've been to the Ellis house, Jake. Taking a bite of toast and then kissing your wife. I feel like that's a part of it too.

You see that a lot. All right. Got to go. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. That's good. That's good. A lot of mornings, I feel like.

Yeah. Just like there's sausage, there's eggs, there's bacon. There's always orange juice, of course. Big old glass of orange juice. The 90s loved orange juice. The character is late for school. Their mom has a banquet on the table. Oh, bye mom.

Grabs an apple. Okay, bye. And the mom's like not that frustrated at all. Bye, hon. Okay, I guess. I guess. Okay, I'll just throw this away. That's good. Yeah, just like what about all your school ones let's talk about some of those i'm trying to think um school bullies yeah well well uh no first of all like yeah you meet the school

bully in the hallway knock you down ask you for your lunch money hit your books out of you yeah out of your hands that's just getting my cousin lockers me my cousin joke about because he's going to college now to be homeschooled his entire life and he's like um he loves to say like sometimes he'll like call me on the way to college and um he'll be like okay i'm here gotta go or i'll be late for school so fun to say um but yeah just like i hope i don't meet a bully in the hallways. Yeah. Right. I'm going to run into the school bully. There's just the one. Yeah.

Obviously. Yeah. Did you know anybody that like, I know bullying is a thing, but I'm just saying like anybody that's like, don't mess with that guy. He's a bully. Bullying is done on a very subtle level. It's not push you into a locker. It's verbal these days.

Yeah. And it's like sarcastic and it's under your breath and it's in class when the teacher can't hear. It's always when you're not being supervised, the kids walking, let me assault you. The guy beating that kid up. Typical Jeremy.

Yeah. Just don't, just don't look at him and it won't happen to you. That's good. Yeah. I don't have, I don't have anything else. It's all mine.

Um, let's see what I'll say. Attractive girl takes off her glasses and is now being borderline haunted by all the men sure yeah just diary style yeah uh protagonists being able to endure insane amounts of pain and bodily harm yeah i i gunshot never kills them yeah or never even like like it hurts them but like i'm gonna i'm gonna worry about that once i'm done killing the guy yeah they like they like get knocked out, but then, or they just like get fully like slammed to the ground, but then, oh, just get right back up and just keep fighting. That's true.

The protagonist is able to punch people and they're just knocked out or whatever. They're no longer a problem. Yeah, they're just unconscious for the rest of the scene, I guess. Yeah. But he can take all sorts of beatings. I had written down pretty much, Brad may mention this, but I just said one person surviving hand-to-hand combat attack

against 10 times the amount of people. It annoys me so much when may mention this, but I just said one person surviving hand to hand combat attack against 10 times the amount of people. I, it annoys me so much when in a movie, this guy is like basically like just like spinning around in circles, fighting all these people, but they're just like waiting to attack him before until he's ready. No,

but I love it. I love it. Well, of course it's great. Yeah. It's great though. A lot of this stuff is just like, well,

of course it has to happen. Right. The old Jackie Chan, like when he's fighting like 15 guys. Yeah, like let's wait until he's facing us, and then we'll come at him. Those old Western movies are so fun, too. I mean, yeah. That's good. That's movie cliches.

That's good right there. Let me tell you. Can I tell you about an experience I had at Chuck E. Cheese? Go nuts. Yeah, recently had a little – Catherine was gone for a – who's calling me now? It doesn't say scam. What's it say? Bonner Springs, Kansas.

Oh. Oliver? Zach? I'll answer it. Yeah, Catherine was at a conference this past weekend so I was on dad duty hard first of all we went to Deanna Rose which is like a farmstead

with my parents and it was so fun my parents and my niece and nephew so fun dude if you guys are in Kansas City and you have kids and you're not I don't go to Deanna Rose that often but Catherine takes the kids sometimes it's just like so amazing so fun you can feed goats. Oh, I like that. Yeah. You can simulate milking a cow. You can watch a cow get milked. Okay. You can, I mean, they had like this whole fall area where like they

had corn mazes and, uh, there was this huge haystack. Did you see that video of Bo and Hattie going down that slide on the head? Yeah. Got some speed. Yeah. It was awesome. Like Bo at first was like, I don't want to go on it. And then Hattie from the very top,

like as she's about to go, she's like, Bo come up here. And he like smiled and just like ran up to it. Oh, fun. It was awesome. So is this slide a recent thing?

Yeah. I think that whole, like it's all like a seasonal fall area. Okay. Okay. It's like kind of like, it's an additional, I was there a lot

as a kid yeah yeah yeah it's amazing it was the when i was eight it was the place to be dude when i was eight it was the place to be and it just continues to get bigger and better it's so fun uh and so cool and anyway it's it's awesome so went there and then made the mistake of like kind of over promising on uh some Chuck E. Cheese. So the original idea was like out of nowhere, Bo, on a dadder day, we were at Chick-fil-A, and he's like, can we go to Chuck E. Cheese after this? Cool. And I was like, that's fun, but I don't think we can do it today.

But I was like, you know what? I'm watching you by myself while mom's at a conference. Let's do Chuck E. Cheese then. And so they've been pumped about it for like a week. And then my mom invited us to Indiana Rose, and I was like, yeah, let's do that, and maybe the kids will forget do Chuck E. Cheese then. And so they've been pumped about it for like a week. And then my mom invited us to Deanna Rose. I was like, yeah, let's do that. And maybe the kids will forget about Chuck E. Cheese. Didn't happen.

Also, let me just go back to Deanna Rose real quick. So the fall area, Tymon, is like, you have to take a horse carriage to the fall area. That's fun. Which was really cool, first of all. I need to go back. There was like these two Clydesdales like taking you on this hayride to the fall area, which was awesome.

And then it was me and my parents and my niece and nephew and my three kids. So there was five kids, three adults. But my parents had to leave early with the niece and nephew. So all of a sudden it was me in this fall area with my three kids. And at the fall area, part of your admission was that everyone got a pumpkin to take home with them. A full pump, a full pumpkin. You could choose one out of the pumpkin patch. Uh, do you think my kids chose the small ones or the big ones? Uh, and so all of a sudden, you know, my kids are dirty and dusty and like playing and yeah,

wiping off the hands. And, and then I have four and then I got a pumpkin and they're like, dad, you have to bring your pumpkin home. You got, I mean, you got to decorate this pumpkin. Um, and so I had four pumpkins in one hand and I was holding Bo or holding Rosie in the other and making sure that Bo and Hattie were coming with me. We had to like go onto the hayride to then take us back to the main area. And then Bo, potty trained Bo, it's just a ticking time bomb.

He hadn't gone to the bathroom in like four hours. Ticking time, Bo. We got to go to the bathroom, but it's like all this craziness. And yeah, and anyway, eventually Bo did, it all ended up fine.

But as we're going to the bathroom, Bo really wanted kettle corn. And I was like, well, we're going to get Chuck E. Cheese later. We're going to do whatever. So then he started unraveling as he's like peeing. And I'm just like, this is crazy. So anyway, just a wild time.

Went home, regrouped, went to Chuck E. Cheese. And dude, Chuck E. Cheese is awesome. I mean, when was the last time you were there, Ty? I know Jake's probably not been there a lot of times. I just want to say something about Chuck E. Cheese is awesome. I mean, when was the last time you were there, Ty? I know Jake's probably not been there a lot of times. I just want to say something about Chuck E. Cheese. When I was, so I've been there like maybe twice ever. Okay. When I was like, yeah, I don't know, like six to nine or something.

And like in my head, it was like, you don't go to Chuck E. Cheese more than like once a year. Yeah. I was like, I thought that it was probably one of the most expensive things you could do. Maybe just the way it was talked about. Yeah, yeah. I was like, I thought that it was probably one of the most expensive things you could do. Maybe just the way it was talked about. Like, yeah, I was like going here is like the biggest financial decision. It's like vacation to Florida or Chuck E. Cheese. That in my head, pretty much the same thing. Sure. Yeah. So how, how flawed is that? Um, flawed, but, but honestly,

I like, I'd, I'd much rather err on the side. I think Catherine and I are the same way as your parents, where it's like, hey, this is a special occasion. It's not like an entitlement. Like, you got to go to Chuck E. Cheese all the time. And I even made sure, like, throughout the day, they would do something nice. And I'd be like, good job, Bo. That's one Chuck E. Point for you.

And in their head, they thought they had to get to a certain amount of Chuck E. Points in order to get to Chuck E. Cheese. Establish a currency. And then Bo started having this tantrum kind of thing in the car, and Hattie goes, Dad, is he losing a lot of Chucky points right now? Mom, take all your Chucky. Can I have his extra Chucky points?

Very seriously, I was like, yeah, he is. I don't know if we're going to be able to go anymore, because that's three Chucky points you just lost. Bo, you've got to stop crying. You just lost three Chucky points, Dad says. But I get there there and honestly uh the employee was the the whatever mvp because i was like i just need i just need to buy gameplay for two kids for an hour that's what i said and they're like well you really just need to get one card um because most of the time little kids like you have like they don't need two cards and so i was like

okay and so they these days they don't even have like tokens that you put in they just load you up with chucky points on the card you just get chucky points yeah they just have like a credit card looking thing that you scan at every single game but basically dude as long as you wait i bet it's like a 10 second 15 second lag in between so i could scan the card for how you start playing a game and i could take that same card and scan bow in over here no problem so as long as we're not like completely spread out across Chuckie and so then I'm putting

Rosie in I'm skin her in saw her in the carousel like the emotionless just like sitting there like it's just the saddest thing ever but she loved it she wanted to do it over and over and over again and it was, it was a blast, dude. There was like no one really there. There was only a few other people there.

So it made it a lot more like relaxed as far as like, where's Rosie? I don't, I'm scared, you know, whatever. Um, and, but the funny thing, dude, and I think this is the thing that you're going to relate to Jake, uh, when you have kids someday is as I was there, I just remembered how much I love the games myself. Like there's just so many fun games in there. Like there was this game, it was quote unquote baseball, but really it was like a pinball almost kind of thing where like, Oh yeah, I've played that before. Yeah. Shoot. And then, and at first I let Bo do it and he wasn't doing very well. And I was like, well, let me, let me show you how it's done. And then I was like, all of a sudden, like, well, I think I'm

pretty good at this thing. And so it was like, my excuse was like, well, I'm going to get my kids lots of tickets for the end. So, um, did that for a while. And then there was this like kiddie version of a Papa shot game. And I was like, I could get so many tickets for my kids. And so I decided, I mean, it was literally like I was basically dunking the ball in over and over and over again. But as I was doing it, one of the balls like fell out of like the main cage and like got kind of weirdly stuck. And so I was like trying to continue to like shoot the shots in while getting this ball. And then I hear somebody behind me be like,

Hey, is this your baby? Is this your baby? I don't know. And Rosie's like trying to crawl up and like get on this ride with this other little girl. And I don't think they were like mad about it. They were just like making sure it was okay.

And I was like, I was like shooting the hoops. I was like, she's fine. Yeah, that's fine. She's really playful. She can do it. I tried to get as many points as I could for them. But yeah, I mean, I had such a blast at Chuck E. Cheese with the kids. And it's one of those things.

It was $28 for an hour. So it's not cheap, but at the same time yeah that's it's cheaper kids and you have a fun time a fun time a really fun time yeah so uh reasonable we'll call it yeah i also want as a kid like chucky cheese that's that's like i would never have dreamed of just going for an hour like if we're going it's like it's like it's like a it's a whole experience it's like disney yeah yeah let's go there let's pack for it let's buy some of the merch over there. Let's put the ears on.

I wonder how long you actually truly were there. That's a good question, honestly. Probably no more than two hours. Yeah. It's so funny how different your perspective is of time. Yeah. I remember thinking, because there's two Chuck E. Cheese's in Kansas City. There's one in Olathe, and then there's the one that I grew up going to in Overland Park.

The one that I've gone to in Olathe since being a parent, I'm like, this is so lame. There's nothing here. There's only like five games. Let's go to the one in Overland Park that I grew up going to. So we went to that one this time, and it was so much smaller than I remember it. I remember thinking like this place is a mansion of games. And it's still – I think it does have more than the Olathe one, but it wasn't like drastically bigger. I'm remembering huge mazes of just like yes like yeah unlimited you could never get to all of them right mazes of games oh yeah but anyway it was it was a blast and the kids had

a lot of fun with it um yeah all of them all of them had a blast so um it'll be a long time i think i'm to be pretty old before I get tired of playing arcade games. Yeah. They're fun. Totally. Yeah, they're games for a reason. Fun to play them.

Yeah, and Rosie was having a blast. I mean, it truly was a great time. Glad to be the kids' dads. That's fun. Let's talk about Mature Roasters just real quick. Okay. MatureRoasters.com they've got coffee there there i said it the coffee's made from beans we buzz on those beans

And it is in Shawnee, Kansas.

Muy bueno. Not very far from us. It's over by Lowe's and Walmart over there on Shawnee Mission Parkway. Would love to. I only eat chicken, vegetables, and salmon and vegetables now. Can't go. From goodrangers.com? Yeah. That's fair. No, it's called Champion Burritos. Recommended to me by Ghosty Clifton Alexander.

Should we go? Yeah. Like right now? Sure. Cool. Well, we're going to do the Chick-fil-A thing. Oh, yeah. I forgot. I'm so hungry. No, but it's it was one of those things where you walk in and you're like I immediately know this place is going to be good. Oh, shucks. Whatever.

It's just my headphones. Can you hear me still? You're sounding great, dude. I just lost it. But they have slightly pixelated pictures on their windows of all the dishes. Oh, that's great. You know what I mean? Yeah, poor lighting.

They don't have any music playing. No music at all. there's no there's nothing flashy about this place i'll say i would not mind the no music thing it was it was very nice it was it was very just like we make good food here um you know that's it spread the word they have at least they like a good mexican good mexican restaurant has at least one handwritten sign somewhere that's just like yeah FYI, water's out. You know? Chicken tinga is spicy.

Yeah, special today on taco plate. They have those Haritos drinks. You know, those like glass bottles. Oh, yeah, bright colors. Yeah, really good. That's a good sign. They always have like a uniform generic tables, just like you find them on restaurant store.com and put them in there, you know, nothing special, but they're

going to get the job done for a long time. Um, and then last one, just a little bit of a racial profiling. The white people are the minority. If I'm in there and I'm the only white guy, you know, something good's about to happen. So all those things, I mean, it was, it was just a solid burrito. It wasn't like, like Catherine, I told her about it later and she's like, well, what was like, what'd you get? And I was like, I don't even, I mean, nothing special burrito. Yeah. There's the, they said the number seven is really popular. And so I ordered it and it was just steak and pork and rice and burrito stuff. I don't know. It tasted

good. So really, really delicious. Recommend it to anybody who's in Kansas. There's a few other locations too, but the first one in Kansas side is on in Shawnee. One of the week. Nice. Mine is going to be, I got to see one of my good friends, Kyle Brown. He lives in Austin, Texas. He's the guy I did the limo trip with. Um, so it's always good to see him. We went to a Buffalo wild wings. It was like one of the only things open in the area we're in. Uh, we got there at 10. It didn't close until midnight and they're like,

Oh, are you guys ordering food? I'm like, yeah. I'm like, okay, we'll fire the kitchen back up. Oh,

sorry. Did you for it? Oh yeah. What, what time do you close? Like midnight. Okay. They started turning off TVs while we were like still eating.

It's like, these people are ready to just get out of here, I guess. Sunday. Yeah. It was Sunday night granted, but still over till midnight um but yeah it was fun to see kyle just always fun to reminisce and just um about that time in our lives we lived out of limo yada yada uh one of the girls who's at the show i was actually talking to kyle on the inside

when we were still in the lobby and there was a girl shout out emily i think her name was banging on the window of the glass it was was like, I want to meet you. And so I was like, all right, Kyle, hang on. Let me go outside. And so I met Emily and a bunch of her church friends. And she just seemed like this huge fan. Like, I'm sorry. She's like, I dragged all these people here.

I love the podcast and all this. I love it. And just was like such a huge fan. And we got a picture, yada, yada. And then she's like, what made tonight's show special? How was it different? Whatever. And I was talking about different things. I was like and uh kind of fun fact for you i mean maybe you'd appreciate this that's kyle right there that's the guy i did the limo trip with

she's like what i was like the like the nationwide like limousine trip like that's the one of the two guys i did with she's like what is the limo trip oh yeah so then i was just like big fan over here doesn't know the one thing that gets brought up pretty often on the podcast so she was like i'm so sorry oh have you mentioned that before i was like i mean probably a couple dozen times over the course of the years so she felt awful and said she was going to do her due diligence to go back and learn what that means so into it yeah emily shout out to you Shout out to Kyle. Good to see good people. I like it. Yeah.

Yeah, he's so funny and just like subtly funny. Like I think the fact that Kyle Brown went to a Buffalo Wild Wings is just funny to me. That sentence is funny to me. You know what I mean? Like because he's just like, I don't know. Anything he does is just funny. Yeah. He's a really funny guy. it was life-giving to uh

to be with him um brad what's your comment of the week i was just looking for it real quick actually um it was essentially something along the lines jessica eggleston said something about like uh how travis kelsey and jason kelsey need to learn from our uh ad reading yeah i screenshotted that did you yeah you're gonna you got pulled up by chance it was just oh I screenshotted that. Did you? Yeah. You got it pulled up by chance? No, I pulled it up by chance. Oh, I screenshotted it. So you have it right now? It's right there?

It was just a fun, like, okay, that's cool to hear people are enjoying. Because we obviously have passion for our advertisers and want to make sure it's worth it to them and everything. But yeah, I'm trying to find it. It's, it's funny. The Facebook, like the way they sort things is so random on here,

man. Like she said, I think the new heights podcast, Jason Travis need to learn how to make ad reads enjoyable, exciting from the ghost runners podcast. Jake and Brad, our boys could teach those bros something. I've never bought a new height sponsor.

I've bought several things from ghost runner sponsors. Hashtag just saying. Yeah. And then she gave examples of like whatever she said, but anyway, get a quick hashtag on that. Just saying. Hashtag just saying. Yeah. And then she gave examples of like whatever she said, but anyway. Get a quick hashtag on that. Just saying. Hashtag vegan ingredients.

Hashtag just saying. She said, Jacob Brad made me wish I was 18 again and could sign up to be a camp counselor at Sho Ye. Yeah.

And start drinking coffee the first time in my life because of Main Street Roasters. I'm already sold on Good Ranchers and Beam. Be amazing. Yes. Take note, New Heights.

Yes. Yeah. My comment of the week, I was going to do do one it's like this is the only podcast where i don't skip the intro or the ads uh but the one right above it says i'm telling you if everyone listens to ghost runners the world would be a happier place love the pod keep it up so that's fun thank you uh charlie and thank you victor victor if you want everyone to listen to the ghost rush podcast the first step is to tell people about the Ghost Rush podcast. Tell more people about it. That is the most effective way that we've learned to grow the podcast is just telling other people about it, saying,

hey, I really like this podcast. It's made an impact on my life in a really small way, or I just enjoy it. It's made my Mondays better. Check it out. Something along those lines. So, um, yeah,

it just means a lot. If you guys could spread the word about us. Um, cause yeah, we like, we like, uh, getting new fans and getting new people into the community. So,

um, yeah, cool. Um, well, this has been a Wednesday episode, episode, uh,

what'd you call it? Five 87 bread. Yeah. Yeah. No, maybe. Yes. Uh, time and make sure your parents were not that concert. I'm real quick. what'd you call it? 587 bread? Yeah. Yeah. No, maybe. Yes. Timon,

make sure your parents were not at that concert. Real quick, just because it's, it's already becoming kind of irrelevant. It was four days after this is being

released, but Nate Bargetzi is on SNL. Yeah. Isn't that crazy and cool? And is it going to, is he going to be good

as an actor? You know, like, yeah, I think I'll do a good job. I'm so excited about it. He's one of the biggest comedians in the world, so hopefully he can act.

Yeah, it's going to be very interesting to see him on there, but it's wild that he's on SNL, dude. Yeah, yeah, pumped for him. He's huge. I think it's long been deserved, probably. If you look at the success he's had, the tickets he's selling,

they've had a lot of people on there who are not selling as many tickets as nate is so yeah pump for him it's gonna be awesome i'm excited that's all i have to say okay right on uh also i just saw this comment just came in but this just says uh today's podcast it's a podcast of a third member join um and mesh well plus be accepted by the audience time has quickly climbed the ranks and actually made Ghost Hunters a better show. Come on, baby. Whoa. His willingness to teach Brad how to use an iPhone,

dual sync Bluetooth, or roast Jake's wife, makes me crack up. Way to go, Brad and Jake, for making room and allowing Tymon to be his own personality, known and heard. That's a nice comment. That is sweet. It's true.

Thank you, guys. You bet, buddy. Hey, no problem, Buster. Cool. Thanks for listening to our podcast, guys. All right. Love you guys. We'll see you next week.

Ghost from the Spotcast. Ghost from the Spotcast. Everybody morning we're taking ground. Ghost from the Spotcast. Ghost from the spot, yeah
