Starting point is 00:00:00 On the Facebook group, Joshua, go lightly. It's your time, baby. You posted. I don't know how many people strictly listen to the podcast. I personally prefer to watch it because the boys are even better. I've been watching their YouTube subscriber number slowly go up over time. I believe that if all of us ghosties share the YouTube and subscribe, we could get them to 10,000 subscribers by the end of the year
Starting point is 00:00:21 and get them that silver play button. I'm aware that Jake and Brad aren't concerned about these numbers, but I think it would be something cool for them to have. First of all, Joshua, thank you. You're the man. That is so sweet of you to think that. It's time to burst some Go Lightly bubbles. All right. Hey, but Go Lightly about this. Just be gentle with it. Here's that bubble. Just FYI, it's not 10,000 subscribers.
Starting point is 00:00:48 It's 100,000 subscribers. So we're not even close to the silver play button, but we have one for Gene Schwartz. If you wanted to make us one once we get there, that'd be fun. It says he lives in Anchorage, Alaska. I bet he could work with his hands. Maybe, you know, they have... Oh, he's the lead pastor at a church.
Starting point is 00:01:05 Oh yeah, the go lightly lead pastor at a church. Whoa. Oh, yeah, the Gold Lightleys. I actually know them. They're the ones that have a... They have a dog kennel business. Oh, wow. They offered to give us some dogs one time. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:01:17 So maybe we'll take them up. They do gold for a million. Is that right? Silver for 100,000. Maybe bronze. You get a dog. Yeah. A bronze golden noodle.
Starting point is 00:01:28 Ooh. Thank you. Yeah. So there you go. Thank you. Good try. Uh, uh,
Starting point is 00:01:37 oh, I, I think this type means that it's going down with some random thoughts and white meat to Midwest best friends eating fast food on repeat So come along, let's have some fun and go ahead Get on your feet cause this is the Ghost Rubs Podcast Ghost Rubs Podcast Everybody morning we're taking ground
Starting point is 00:01:54 Ghost Rubs Podcast Ghost Rubs Podcast When I was a young boy, and even young man, hold on. This is brought to you by Good Ranchers. Yes. That's what I was going to say, actually. It's American Meat Delivery. When I was a young boy, I was an American.
Starting point is 00:02:12 When I was a young man, I was still American. Now, I want American meat. You have a grandpa who raised cattle. From GoodRanchers.com. Yes. But yeah, growing up and even into adulthood, I used to fantasize about someday buying a house, maybe having a wife, a little family, and the community I would have with my neighbors. Oh, we're best friends. We're going to be baking cookies, borrowing brown sugar.
Starting point is 00:02:39 Cookout. Hey, you need a nine-iron? I got two of them. Take one. It's just one big, happy, almost communist area. Okay. That's what I thought. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:02:49 I do know you. Yes. Outside of you, I don't know one thing about my neighbors. And I don't know if this is me getting older, or it's because no one else seems to be in the same stage of life as us. But I just don't have any inclination to get to know my neighbors. I was going to say, is it a one-way street, or is it a two-way street as far as it's like, they don't want to get to know me, and I don inclination to get to know my neighbors. I was going to say, is it a one-way street or is it a two-way street as far as it's like they don't want to get to know me
Starting point is 00:03:08 and I don't want to get to know them? Because we have people across and to the right of you who are literally in your exact life stage. Yeah, but didn't you say they're theater teachers? Exactly. Oh, ew. They both are. They're double theaters.
Starting point is 00:03:23 Oh, their kids are going to be strange. Yeah. Just kidding, Tymon. I suppose. Yeah Oh, their kids are going to be strange. Yeah. That's getting time. I suppose. Yeah. Yeah. Maybe I just need them to start it. Like if,
Starting point is 00:03:30 if someone came to me, then I'd be so into it. Yeah. I don't want to make the first move. Bumble for whatever reason, my family, my parents are the nicest people, but we've never,
Starting point is 00:03:39 well, since I was like four and moved into my house that I've been in, we've never been like really tight with our neighbors. Like, I don't know. I just, and I guess you didn't really grow up with neighbors too much, except for your family,
Starting point is 00:03:50 which you have to be friendly to. Yeah. And so, yeah, I don't know. I just, I, I,
Starting point is 00:03:55 I probably should have more of a heart for my neighbors. I know their names. That's about it. Yeah. You know, Dennis, you got Dennis, but the people literally right next door to you,
Starting point is 00:04:02 I've never talked to them or I've only seen them a few times. No, yeah. They're kind of, yeah, shady. There is a couple of houses where it's not real approachable. There's also a house like around the corner that is like a quadplex. Yeah, something illegal is going on. It seems like it's like...
Starting point is 00:04:21 The amount of cars. Like the laws for that house are just grandfathered in. Like they can't change a window on it or else they're going to have to tear it down. Yeah, there is... It seems like it's like the laws for that house are just grandfathered in. They can't change a window on it or else they're going to have to tear it down. Don't you feel like that? There's no sprinkler system in there. There's no fire alarm. There's just 25 people in a six-bedroom apartment. It's a weird spot.
Starting point is 00:04:40 I think Catherine would be just fine if they condemned that place and rebuilt something else there. weird spot i think catherine would be just fine if they condemned that place yeah you know and and rebuilt something else there but um a couple nights ago i was up late editing working on something i don't know what i was doing but i heard one i heard somebody's car alarm go off and then it got shut off like 30 seconds later didn't think much of it and then five minutes later different part of the neighborhood i hear a different car alarm go off car alarm a little tricky for me to say a different car alarm yeah car alarm Car alarm. A little tricky for me to say. Different car alarm. A different car alarm.
Starting point is 00:05:07 Yeah. Car alarm. And then you got a little sketched? Yeah, I was like, maybe someone is just like slowly breaking into cars or whatever. And so I went out there to my driveway with both nine irons. Never saw anybody.
Starting point is 00:05:17 Probably because they saw me from afar. They were scared off. Whoa. But anyway, it was my thoughts on neighbors. Yeah. I don't know. I think obviously biblically we're supposed neighbors. Yeah. I, I don't know. I think obviously biblically we're supposed to love our neighbors and I don't know if
Starting point is 00:05:29 I do a good enough job of like being proactive. Like if I'll be reactive, if like, if they're, if they're, if they're backyards on fire, Hey, your grass, you need my hose, you can borrow it, put that thing out. But like, I'm not, I'm not one to like, we haven't invited them over or anything. You know, what do you think our neighbors think of how many trips we take back and forth? Like one,
Starting point is 00:05:49 just walking just from house to house and two, just like, I mean, last weekend I carried a crock pot. So often I have things in my hand. Like I brought cozy earth box over to you. Like, what's this guy do?
Starting point is 00:06:00 Cause they don't know. Yeah. Especially like people like passing by while I'm waiting on them to pass me to cross the street. I'm just holding this big thing. Like they don't know how far I'm walking with that thing. They don't know that I'm walking two doors down. They could be, I could be going so far.
Starting point is 00:06:13 I think if we're ever going to your house and maybe we're, yeah, we're going to eat dinner together. Rachel will send me there with just like a random thing of food. And maybe I've got like, Brad left his computer. I got a little bubble for. And Rachel, you know, is taking back Catherine's spatula. And that's what I'm holding. Rachel has 16 water bottles herself,
Starting point is 00:06:30 so she can't bring it. Crossing a busy street with a MacBook and energy drink and a spatula. What do they think of me? Yeah, exactly. Like, who are these people? Or even like, sometimes I'll hang out or like record something
Starting point is 00:06:41 or be here late at night and then walk back. And I'm like, who are these people watching this guy walk from, maybe they didn't even see where I started walking, but they saw me cross the street and then just walk into some house. Yeah. With a backpack. Like, who is this guy?
Starting point is 00:06:57 I wonder that too. When I just like your garage door is up. So I just go right in your garage and like, they know I didn't come from there. Yeah. Is that guy just a really bold burglar? Door to door garage, door to door salesman. He knows exactly where the K grader is and he's stealing that thing right away. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:11 I mean, I don't know. Luckily I, I feel like our neighborhood, even though it's not the nicest neighborhood in town, it seems very safe. I've, I've left my garage door open on accident multiple times. It's been just fine. Yeah. Well, maybe that one time my package got stolen and I had tire marks in my front yard?
Starting point is 00:07:27 Yeah, that was weird. Maybe the street that we crossed is the dividing line. Dang. Good for you, man. I don't know. Good for you. I don't know. Also, my house is kind of tucked away,
Starting point is 00:07:37 like the shop and stuff is. You have to really be a bold burglar to go and steal my stuff. That's what I try to say to Rachel, too, about like a home burglar or something. art, the streetlights here. So bright. We have the most lit up house. Yeah. Your house is lit. It's so lit here. Yeah. It's awesome. So we're so safe. Anyway, go lightly. Uh, if you want to send me dogs, that'd be awesome. Yeah. Um, another thing from the Facebook group here, patient, patient's Axman. Oh yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:05 A great fan. Shout out to patients. Um, she asked a question that got 103 comments. Not going to rely. I have not read all of them. Um, but on the Facebook group,
Starting point is 00:08:15 she said question for the married ghost. He's out there. Does anyone else switch which side of the bed they sleep on every few days? Or is this psycho behavior? What are your thoughts? I remember getting to that and saying she posts like three hours ago and already had
Starting point is 00:08:29 70 comments or something. I was like a whole league how I can't believe this. But yeah, it's I'm kind of with her because yeah, Rachel and I we've done it before. Yeah, we actually did we do it last night? talked about it but uh yeah so
Starting point is 00:08:47 yeah i don't think it's that crazy but i loved all the comments of people like you are psycho just not even trying to be nice to her it's like yep psycho amber groves kinworthy you should be steady dot dot dot absolutely psycho behavior jamie hatch absolutely psycho my husband suggested switching sides one time and let's just say we're still on the same sides yeah uh yeah i what are your thoughts oh sorry rachel coop triplet i identify with that psycho behavior whenever jake is gone i always scoot to his side to sleep and i have no idea why yeah she does like loves like we have the same pillow same yeah everything she loves it here's what i'll say i I believe that when we first were married, I know for a fact we were first married,
Starting point is 00:09:28 we did switch sides one time and then kind of switched for a while. Like, I don't know. So maybe it's a newlywed thing. I know Patience, I think she has three kids, so she's not newlywed. But I don't know. For whatever reason, I don't even remember talking,
Starting point is 00:09:41 having a conversation of, hey, let's switch tonight. It was just kind of like, I don't know. I don't remember who initiated who went first in that, whatever. Um, but now it feels like almost always I'm on the left side and she's on the right side. Um, but I think even more than that, I think subconsciously, and maybe this is me trying to feel too good about myself as a man, but I like being closer to the door. Cause then I protect first line of defense. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:10:09 Um, cause every once in a while it's vice versa on the door. And I do feel a little bit more inclined to be on the other side. Um, but almost always I'm on left. She's on right. That I can think, I'm trying to think of like times when we've been on vacation,
Starting point is 00:10:22 like, like recently when we were, uh, on our, at the hotel for our anniversary, I was on the left. think it's it's pretty universal these days yeah rachel's all about like we get to a hotel or airbnb it's all about like the almost like the vibe she's like well obviously i'd be on this side because it has like a cool window with like a cool view like the vibe is just better i mean that's fair sometimes it's like this side the outlet's right there this side the outlet's way far away i use my phone in bed you put your phone away before you get in bed you know kind of thing just practical um yeah that's fair i think that's that's
Starting point is 00:10:55 part of it maybe but uh i want to find this post so bad i have searched the word married i've searched word married ghosties i'm now command effing the word patients in our facebook group and it's six days ago. So you got to scroll down because there's like 85 comments about how good time is it singing compared to me. Just kidding for a lot of those. Yeah, I just looked up patients
Starting point is 00:11:15 Facebook. You mean to copy the link? Honestly, yes. I'm so frustrated by this. Let's see. How do I copy this link send? I'm going to try to find it starting right now and see if I just like do it happen in good luck. Facebook is brutal. Here I go.
Starting point is 00:11:32 I just sent it to you via messenger on Facebook. Okay. How cool is that? Yeah, it's just interesting little quirk because obviously if you're at home, you have your sides of the bed with your end tables, right? You got, you got side tables with stuff on it. Dude, I walked in my room yesterday and on my nightstand, my yeah. Table. Yeah. There's just a knife. I was like, Rachel, what is going on? Like a, like a utensil kitchen, utensil knife, like a steak knife.
Starting point is 00:12:01 Oh, like a sharp knife, a sharp steak knife, which is like, there's a lamp, my phone charger, and then a knife. You heard about the car alarms going off. Yeah. Honestly, we didn't get to the bottom of it. I don't know why that knife was there. It was on my side. I don't know what she was up to. What'd you do with the knife? It's still there. That's psycho behavior. I thought maybe she was using it. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:12:21 Do you see my post or my text to you? Yes, got it. Finally. Yeah, so what do you have on your nightstand? Do you see my post or my text to you? Yes. Got it. Finally. Yeah. So what do you have on your nightstand? My nightstand, I have hostage tape. Nice. I have my phone charger.
Starting point is 00:12:37 I have probably a stack of five books that I haven't read. Not bad. I have right now. I have like some stuff, some like not Vaseline, but like stuff to help you breathe better. Um, what else do I have? Oxygen tank? No, I make sure to always drink all my water before I go to bed because I do. I just know myself well enough to know that I could like grab my phone when it, you know, the alarm goes off and I'll hit it over. So I always drink all my water. So my water bottle is always on the ground. That's a good question. I'm sure I have
Starting point is 00:13:09 some other things that I'm forgetting about now, but that's, that's main, main, mainly it. Yeah. Cause I could easily switch. I've got my phone charger plugged into the wall, but I think Rachel has that on her side. All I have is just a lamp. I got nothing. Yeah. Oh yeah. And I have, we have, we have like floating sconces, so I don't have a lamp on mine, but you don't have like a drawer with stuff in it. Uh, but nothing I'm using.
Starting point is 00:13:30 It's almost like storage. It's like, that's where my passports are. Really? Yeah. Just keep it right there. Yeah. I,
Starting point is 00:13:36 uh, yeah, I don't use it very much. I think it's definitely more the, the girl would have things in her. Yeah. Like, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:13:43 Catherine has 35 books. It's amazing how many books she has. She has whatever, all these different things, little, little bowl for her hair ties and her. She's got a bowl. I think so. I could be wrong. She has different stuff.
Starting point is 00:13:59 I don't know. Caitlin Arbogast commented. Okay. But logistically, I'm as to how this works. Do you not keep books, lip balm, lotion, et cetera? Lip balm, yep. On your nightstand? Lip balm.
Starting point is 00:14:10 And then Patience said, honestly, I think we just ask each other for stuff or reach over. I've never thought about it before. All I really need is my phone charger and we have one on each side. I think we each keep one lip balm on each side drawer too.
Starting point is 00:14:23 I like it, Patience. How much do you need? This is funny. Malachi, Malachi Tish, you're entitled to your opinion, but that's like saying, do you sometimes wake the baby up in the middle of the night just to spice things up? Do not mess with daddy's sleep routine.
Starting point is 00:14:40 Psycho behavior. I do like calling people psychos. I feel like I do that a decent amount on this podcast. I don't think I do it very often in real life, but it's fun to be like psycho. This is a funny, I'm scrolling down. Caitlin Arbogast, again. Again.
Starting point is 00:14:53 She's had more time to think about it. She said, this is literally insane. I called dibs on the left side of the day we were married and we haven't looked back since. What about like pillows? You good interchanging those? Yeah, we switched last week. Rachel, even though we have the same exact pillow,
Starting point is 00:15:08 she's like, I think you sleep differently on yours and I think it's formed it differently. Can I try it? Yeah, whatever. Go for it. There's something out there mentally. Sometimes it's like if someone cooks you the food versus you make it yourself. It just tastes better when somebody else made it for me.
Starting point is 00:15:23 Yeah. So yeah, I'm always down. Rachel and switch, switch pillows, switch anything, whatever you want to do. Courtney Abernathy said, if this is you go ahead and check yourself in somewhere. And that's what I loved is how just people were like, not trying to be polite and obviously being funny, but just giving it to patients. Uh, Angela Birdwell, great fan. Uh, she said he sleeps closest to the door in most cases, so we don't switch. However, on vacations where the door is closest to my side, I get to be the protector. That's fun. Woman just saying like his CPAPs on the other side, so that wouldn't work.
Starting point is 00:15:59 This is great. Yeah, that's marriage right there. Use hostage tape. Don't use CPAP. Jennifer Logsdon, that's the craziest thing I've ever heard of. 23 years, same side of the bed since day one. This is literally insane. I love the literally insane. Don't hold back. People are fired up about it. That's fun. Yeah. It's just a thing that every married couple does you know what something else else people were fired up about is uh i believe his name was mac a couple days after the super bowl but the day after super bowl he posted like i'm not a big football fan i live in kansas city not even a big of a chiefs fan but does anyone else feel like the
Starting point is 00:16:41 nfl is maybe rigged and scripted and all this stuff? And I saw this and I saw you couldn't, you couldn't let it go. Well, yeah, I, by the time I saw it, they're already like, I don't know, a couple dozen comments. It'd been like three hours. I hadn't seen it. And so I was like, oh, that's kind of, let's see what the comments are. And then I started seeing comments and people were like, yeah, honestly, I haven't thought about it. A couple of people were like, I a hundred percent believe this. And I was like, whoa, whoa, whoa, slow down, slow down. These are our ghostiesies this isn't the internet this isn't reddit these are our ghosties and then i feel like i had to say something i said a few things uh but then the guy who uh created the post he messaged me it was like hey i just want you know i don't even really believe this so please
Starting point is 00:17:21 don't talk about the podcast like dude you're good because even as people are replying to him i actually started to really like him because he would be like i don't even really believe this. So please don't talk about the podcast. I'm like, dude, you're good. Because even as people were replying to him, I actually started to really like him because he would be like, I don't even really know what I got myself into. I don't even, I just thought it'd be fun. And I was like, good for him. He's like taking it lighthearted. But it worries me that people who love us
Starting point is 00:17:38 think the NFL is rigged. And if that's many people think the NFL is rigged within the Ghost Runners podcast listeners, I mean, that's millions of people. Yeah. Nationwide who think the NFL is rigged within the ghost runners, podcast listeners, I mean, that's millions of people. Yeah. Nationwide who think the NFL is rigged. Yeah. Very bothersome to me.
Starting point is 00:17:50 You ready for this Jake? Yeah. You might not like what you're about to hear. Please. I don't think it's rigged. Good. Me neither. Rigged sounds way too extreme,
Starting point is 00:18:01 but I think there's, I don't think it's a, I don't think it's just a hundred percent subjective. You're saying maybe that's not the right word, but I think there's, I don't think it's a, I don't think it's just a hundred percent subjective. You're saying maybe that's not the right word, but you think would you, would you rather say maybe some things are planned? Is that what you're saying? No, not even planned. Planned is too extreme, I think. Okay. So, um, do you know Tim Donaghy, the NBA ref? So he's, he's been on interviews before talking about how the nba during a series will be like so like timing you play a playoff series you play whoever whatever team gets to four wins first
Starting point is 00:18:31 then the series is over so you play a best of seven series okay series might be three to one and the nba will tell them hey fyi call it harder on xyz team than this team. We want this series to go to six games, something like that. I could imagine that that type of scenario does happen in the NFL in a sense of like, hey, Patrick Mahomes is our darling. Be more careful with him when people hit him than Josh Dobbs. Do you know he has some of the least amount of roughing the passer calls out of the entire NFL over his career? I do.
Starting point is 00:19:08 I'm just saying. I think that still could happen, though. But the data does not back up that specific thing you just said? Well, unless does he get hit as much as everybody else? It's not like one-to-one. True. You know what I mean? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:19:24 I could be wrong, but I think maybe, yeah, whatever, all these different scenarios like that. Like, I think they probably know in their head, Hey, Patrick Mahomes is the most entertaining guy in our league. It would be bad for everybody if he got hurt. Yeah. Let's protect him. Yeah. Like let's, let's be careful. Let's make sure we watch what people are doing to him if they make a cheap shot or if they even get close to a cheap shot, which they're not. I feel like people are usually smart enough to know,
Starting point is 00:19:50 like, oh, we shouldn't do that. I think to say it's rigged, to be like, oh, this was a terrible... I mean, you watch the Super Bowl. I feel like the Chiefs got, you know, worse calls than the 49ers. I saw a couple different like comment sections online, both Twitter,
Starting point is 00:20:06 Reddit, I've just like general NFL fans and everyone agreed like this was such a clean Superbowl. There were no calls. You can look back on like this screwed us. This screwed us. They're like, if anything,
Starting point is 00:20:15 if chiefs fans lose that game, they have a right to be upset about some of the spots. So many spots. There were like three spots in the fourth quarter and overtime, but overall like very clean game. Yeah. What else did I see though? Last that was like that was questionable i watched i watched part of it again uh the horse collar thing was legit i think i'm trying to remember
Starting point is 00:20:32 anyway but i think that there's scenarios like that that doesn't mean it's rigged but i do think there is like hey the the quarterback is the most important piece of an NFL team. Let's try in general to keep them more healthy. And then these guys are like the big guys. Don't mess with them kind of thing. I think anytime it's a bad recipe when there's so much money involved in the NFL and sports gambling and these huge companies, like these teams,
Starting point is 00:21:03 and then these referees be paying so much little compared to everyone they're refereeing it's a it's a recipe for corruption i think so i think yeah it's definitely like the table's been set for someone to you know potentially be paid off yeah but that's as far as i see it going it's like a single referee who's like corrupt or something but like to think there's a script or it's rigged yeah like why aren't why isn't every like just the idea that you would know the outcome of a game all these casinos would be out of money no because then the players would just bet on what they know also these are the best actors we've ever seen because they can perfectly rehearse they don't
Starting point is 00:21:40 ever make mistakes they do exactly what the nfl says to do no there's no way that there's no way people believe that right like is that what this guy was saying kind of thing was like a lot of people who said they believe it's rigged yeah yeah so whatever that means to you yeah i guess the ref thing seems like the most rigable thing but even then it's like hey watch watch out because, you know, Wanya Morris holds a lot, you know, whatever. I don't know, all that kind of stuff. It just seems like there's so many permutations in a given football game. Like, even if the refs were instructed that, hey, if we make it to overtime,
Starting point is 00:22:20 CBS is going to make so much money off of the playoff, or sorry, the Super Bowl commercials that we get. You're like, all right, we'll try our best. Yeah. Yeah. But then Jake Moody gets a field goal blocked. It's like, well, you couldn't have control.
Starting point is 00:22:29 I mean, no, you know, like I said, there's no way to control almost anything. It's just like, it would be unbelievably impossible for, for,
Starting point is 00:22:38 yeah, for you to physically rig anything. Cause that would mean, Hey, you have to catch this pass. Hey, you have to barely block this field goal. I mean player entries part of the rigging you have to tear your acl like is that part of it like and just like i don't know i i think andrew shooting made a good
Starting point is 00:22:57 point in the comment section he was like if it's rigged if there's any kind of like corruption collusion going on then why aren't the cowboys making more super bowls they're the most valuable franchise in all of sports oh yeah it's the cowboys and the commanders and like yeah they're not doing yeah or the biggest markets would make the most or whatever and you've even seen like the des bryant like he they said he didn't catch it like there's been calls that would have you could have so easy called for the cowboys to advance them and you didn't so yeah i just feel like the boys are playing ball so everyone stop believing that it's rigged it's gonna bother me if i find out you guys still believe it that's funny all right um let's see let's do a little
Starting point is 00:23:37 when in the week yeah when in the week um i got two my My first one is I got the Christmas lights down. Oh, did you? Only February 10th or whatever it was. It was Saturday. Felt good. Felt good to get them down. I think in the past I've gotten them down in like May. So this time I was like, hey, February, not bad.
Starting point is 00:23:59 It was one of those things. January still felt like it was a nice festive time to have them up. It was fun to have them up during the Super Bowl. And then's like it's time to go down no maybe i got them down right before the super bowl it doesn't matter um but yeah got them down it took me 30 minutes it's one of those things it's like just do this earlier why didn't why really yeah it doesn't take long at all way longer to put them up than to take them down because to take them down you just kind of yank on them and hope they don't break when they come down. Um,
Starting point is 00:24:27 so that was my win. Win number one. Win number two is after the Bargetti show, I got to see the Beth keys. They were in town. It was nice. And, they were in town with their friends,
Starting point is 00:24:37 Brian. He runs breakaway at, uh, A&M. If you guys know that, um, go Aggies. Uh,
Starting point is 00:24:44 and it was one of those things where like, he was really busy and he was like, I don't know if I can see you. I'll just see you after the show. And part of me was like, that's kind of a bummer. I wish I could have seen you for coffee or whatever. But it was like, even if it's just 30 minutes, it was a great reminder of like, it's fun to just make time when you can make time. So it was just a really good time seeing them. We had some good laughs. He got to meet Gunner. Gunner's wearing this puffer vest, I guess, and a classic Gunner shirt.
Starting point is 00:25:11 I don't know. And he's like, what do you do for a job? I'm guessing you're a finance guy. You give me finance vibes, which is what Gunner does. But I don't feel like Gunner gives off the vibes of a finance guy. No, he definitely is not a finance vibes. But he nailed it. He's in the arena.
Starting point is 00:25:24 Yeah. So anyways, it was a fun time seeing Jeff and Alyssa. That's fun. My win of the week is that I put up something on my story yesterday about the Chiefs Parade and old K-Life kid, good friend, Ryan Cayley said, that's my aunt. One of the
Starting point is 00:25:38 old ladies we interviewed at the very end. I went back and watched the video and she's because they all gave their first and last names. I made a comment. I was like, wow, everyone said their last name. She was like, Carrie Cayley. She said it, and I didn't even catch it in a moment. No way. Yeah, so he replied, Jake, that's my aunt.
Starting point is 00:25:55 Yeah, we did interview those three ladies. Was she the one closer to me? Yeah, closer to you. The one who said she liked Lenny Duss. Oh, and you were like, you really like Lenny Duss? A little twinkle in your eye when you said that. Did you know Lenny back in the day? Wow, that's a fun coincidence.
Starting point is 00:26:09 So we went to the week, yeah. Interviewed old K-Life kid, Ryan's aunt, Carrie. That's fun. What are the odds? Yes, I do. I played pickleball with my friends on, I think, Saturday. And I have a very athletic and sporty friend, Caleb. And I beat him 11-2.
Starting point is 00:26:28 Oh! That felt so good. I'm not the guy who's good at pickleball. Or anything athletic. I guess his football and lacrosse and all this stuff, abilities don't translate to pickleball.
Starting point is 00:26:43 Was he hitting it out a lot? Yeah. His serves, he would bounce it and serve it. I don't even know if that's legal. It wasn't working too well for him. I felt so good. That's awesome. I want to come watch sometime. Watch you and Caleb play.
Starting point is 00:26:58 I just want to play more pickleball. I just barely ever play it. It's so fun when I do. I'm ready to play. This summer. Let's light it up. Go Shredders Pickleball. Go Shredders Pickle it. It's so fun when I do. I'm on a drought. I'm ready to play. This summer. Let's light it up. Go Shredders Pickleball. Go Shredders Pickleball.
Starting point is 00:27:09 Let's play. Get Caleb there. Yeah. When he gets better. Yeah, Caleb sounds like he's a classic football bro that just doesn't quite have the touch for pickleball yet. Yeah. That's awesome.
Starting point is 00:27:20 And so are your friends watching you? Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. That's good times. I let them watch. Caleb, what's happening? What's are your friends watching you? Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. That's good times. I let them watch. Like, Caleb, what's happening? What's happening? What's happening?
Starting point is 00:27:30 It was more just like, what's happening to me? I don't succeed in athletic things. What's your game, Diamond? Do you just kind of try to keep the volley going? Are you more strategic in where you're placing it? I've gotten a little better. Like, I'm trying to get it, like, slowed down to, like down to like dink it i think i think that's what that's called i don't know much about pickleball but like i think if i can kind of just control it and get closer to the
Starting point is 00:27:55 kitchen that's like i can kind of get a little spin on it sometimes oh spin guy a little bit how much is how important is uh how many How often do people dink in singles? Is it a thing? Not that much. If you do, it does not last very long. Right. Yeah. Because you just have to cover more ground.
Starting point is 00:28:14 That'd be really tough to... Yeah. Yeah. You gotta be big. Dinking's fun. Pickleball's fun. It is. That's great.
Starting point is 00:28:22 Pickleball is fun. What paddle are you using? One that Jake gave me. Yeah. A while ago. Way back in the day. It was pre-Friday. So don't... Not going to say the name? Well, lie next time, okay? Friday, Friday, Friday.
Starting point is 00:28:37 Friday paddle, Friday paddle, Friday paddle. Just dropped the blue sky. I didn't win, actually. I gave Caleb that one and I used my new Friday pickle pick destroyed him that's awesome dude all right let's do a little quick ad for main street roasters let's talk about them let's talk about them who who likes timing who's your favorite coffee roaster um person or a company either uh okay so let's go let's say um uh jamie who works at main street roasters jamie at main street they gotta have a jamie oh yeah they got four jamies guys two girls yeah okay so jamie f um okay she's great and then uh as far as like the actual roast probably main street roasters

Starting point is 00:30:20 taller than her now it's crazy so it's kind of funny. Like Big Jamie's shorter. Yeah. But she makes an incredible latte. And the main reason she's so good is not actually her technique. I thought it was her tamping. It's her tamps. Okay.

Well done. You got through it. So this game is called The Office in a Flash. Is that me? Oh, I think it was me. Oh, no one's hearing that. Hand up.

What about if you like the Flash? If you like fast games. Okay, okay. That aren't really that fast, you're going to love it. So basically, it's a simple game.
Starting point is 00:32:39 There's going to be different little clips that I'm going to play here. And I'm not going to show them to you, at least not initially. And I just want to see if you can tell me what the situation is, what, what, you know, you can either tell me a line before or after you can tell me whatever, like, so I just clipped a few of them.

But if we like this, we'll we can listen to the answer. Fun. Thanks for doing this. Sure. So I just have eight of them. Keep it quick. But if we like this, we'll do Office in a Flash again sometime.
Starting point is 00:33:08 Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. All right. So here is the first one. Drum roll, please. Here we go.
Starting point is 00:33:16 Who is it? A man and a day. Okay. A couple of things came to mind. Actually, I don't know it right off the top of my head. Can we play it again? Sure. Drum roll, please.
Starting point is 00:33:29 Here we go. Who is it that's passing the day? It sounds like it's his birthday at the end. That's not what I was thinking in my head. I thought it was going to be, isn't there a scene where they're like, he's drum rolling, like, let's see the new leads we got from corporate. That seems like what it is. Like, he's about to like,
Starting point is 00:33:47 look at these like, three by five note cards. The new leads is not it. But he said birthday. Diamond? Phone a friend? This is an early episode. Really?
Starting point is 00:33:59 So he does say birthday. Yeah. I'm ashamed. An early episode and I don't know this? I didn't know how easy or hard to make them, so I'm just saying this one's a little harder. A little litmus test.
Starting point is 00:34:10 What is the extended clip? So here's the extended clip. The birthday person is... Drumroll, please. Here we go. Who is it? Oh, yeah, it is. Who is it?
Starting point is 00:34:23 So it's... So do you know it now? Yeah, it is at Who is it? So do you know it now? Yeah, it is at the very beginning of the show. Right. Uh, I think someone comes into his office. It says like,
Starting point is 00:34:32 we have a birthday this month and then he's excited to hear who it is. Is it Pam who tells him? Yeah. So it's, it's, it's, he's, he's banging on his desk with Pam there.
Starting point is 00:34:41 Um, and is it like, and it's, it's like, no, we don't have any birthdays coming up. He's trying to do like a morale improvement.
Starting point is 00:34:46 Yeah. And so. Next one is next month. Yeah, it's Meredith. Yeah. What do we know about Meredith? You know,
Starting point is 00:34:51 they have all these funny things and then we're like, we know she's allergic to dairy and later on in the episode, he's like, wait, if I was allergic to dairy, I would kill myself.
Starting point is 00:35:00 So. Dang. Anyway. I will do better. I will do better. That's good. That was good. Office in a
Starting point is 00:35:05 flash that was perfect all right next uh next one here i think this one is hard unless it's not so okay i think it's kevin at the vending machine very good yeah with holly let's let let's see five cents so that means you could get anything up in the top row when he thinks that holly's into her into him yeah very good i am so i don't want to say the phrase actually yeah yeah yeah i'm going to get to know Holly. I am so going to hook up with Holly. All right, next one. That was a good one, good one, good one.
Starting point is 00:35:51 See, that one, I intentionally left the change in there. The clanking in there, that helped. Thank you. All right, here we go. This one might be... Tymon, just have your hand on the volume for this one. I turned down a little bit on mine, but... And limo lady!
Starting point is 00:36:06 We're going completely carbon neutral. This is, I think, at the shareholders meeting. Yeah. Right? When you're just announcing stuff. It's a 45-day plan. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:36:16 45 days, 45 steps. And they're just, they're getting riled up. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And I forget what else he says leading up to it. But he keeps like spouting off other things, other empty promises.
Starting point is 00:36:25 Right. Yeah, exactly. All right, so here's the extended clip. And limo lady, we are going completely carbon neutral. I love you, New York. Ready for the spin? The turn.
Starting point is 00:36:50 I love you, New York! Good times. Office in a flash. All right. Let's see the next one here. Thunder Mifflin, this is Pam. I'm sorry he's not in yet. Would you like his voicemail?
Starting point is 00:37:08 Yeah! Okay, is this the episode where they're running in the street? Is that the noise? Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah. That's fun. I thought about not putting that part in there yet, like keeping it. We'll see here, Tymon.
Starting point is 00:37:24 It would have been tough without it. Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Okay. not keep putting that part in there yet? Like, keeping it? We'll see here, Tymon. It would have been tough without it. Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Okay. 12 miles an hour. Eat that, Carl Lewis! I think I realized, like, as I was doing this, I was like, Michael's quotes are...
Starting point is 00:37:41 I just want to do only Michael quotes. He's the best. Maybe that'd be a fun theme, is is like every time is a different character. There you go. Office in the flash. Office in the flash. Yeah. Office in the flash.
Starting point is 00:37:52 Next one. I think this maybe, maybe the, whatever. I don't need a preface because if you get it right, easy or great. If you get it wrong, no problem.
Starting point is 00:38:00 My God, man, that is disgusting. That's why you said we couldn't make any more stops. I really had to go. Oh, go watch I really had to go you're making me spray yes that one that was like when Shazam gets your song immediately that is they're going up
Starting point is 00:38:14 to Utica to see Karen they're wearing fake mustaches pretending to be janitors this is a very familiar episode quote the whole thing it's an extended one. I think it's, I think it's like a 40 minute long one.
Starting point is 00:38:27 Maybe. All right. Let's see here. Leaking or something. It doesn't make sense. Couldn't be. What is that? Dwight,
Starting point is 00:38:38 are you peeing? I'm peeing in the empty can. Oh my God, man. That is disgusting. Dwight, you said we couldn't make any more stops I really had to go watch the road. Hey you make me spray. Oh my god. I killed you man
Starting point is 00:38:50 Michael that is just so disgusting That was good, that was good. That was classic. Alright I love their sandwiches. I love their sandwiches too. Their bread's really good. Their bread is very good. What is the context of that? I know the quote, obviously, but their bread is very good. Another early episode. It's actually season one. Is it really?
Starting point is 00:39:14 Which maybe that other one was too. Maybe that other one was season two. What is the context to their bread is good? Their bread is very good. I don't know it. So that's Jim, obviously. Tommy's looking over his shoulder because he's in the break room.
Starting point is 00:39:30 Dwight is not. Is that a good clue? But Dwight is watching him. Does that help you? I'm trying to think. It wouldn't be the... Like when they're in a prank war. Yeah, Jim is trying to do something.
Starting point is 00:39:44 He's trying to do something to Dwight. Is he putting his stapler in Jell-O? I don't know with him. Are you ready for the next little clip here? Oh, the alliance. The alliance. Dang it. Yeah. Okay, listen.
Starting point is 00:40:00 We need to assume that everyone in the office is forming an alliance and is therefore trying to get us kicked out. Damn it. Why us? Because we're strong, Dwight. Because we're strong. Because we're strong, Dwight.
Starting point is 00:40:13 Yeah, the alliance. That's good. He's trying to get intel. Yeah, and Dwight thinks he's having a really intense conversation. That's right. He's like, I'll go spy on August. Get it over with Kevin. All right, we've got two more here.
Starting point is 00:40:24 This one's 17 seconds long. I don't know if it needs to be that long. We'll see. What is a business? Is it a collection of numbers and sales reports? Sure. But as you know, David and Jan, it is much more. Yeah, I thought it was when he was talking at ryan's business school at first so i mean it sounds like he is is this where he's pitching his own commercial to corporate
Starting point is 00:40:55 no okay because he doesn't i don't think he ever pitches his commercial we just see that at the end right yeah because yeah jane wouldn't have been there for that, I don't think. He's pitching some sort of video to David and Jane, but I don't know what it is. Struggling. All right. Dedication is no doubt one of the hallmarks of the foundation of the business we're hoping to build our basis on. Yeah, I shot a bunch of footage around the office,
Starting point is 00:41:21 edited it together on my Mac. I was thinking about entering it at some festivals. Probably won't. You know, not what this is about. And finally. Yeah. Yeah. It's like all the branch managers came to corporate.
Starting point is 00:41:34 They're supposed to give like a PowerPoint, like sales numbers. Right. And he makes a video. And that's when they, that's when Michael accidentally is like, hey, she's my girlfriend. Hey, not cool. All right. This last one. I think you're going to get it.
Starting point is 00:41:48 Yeah, I think you'll get the context probably. You'll definitely know the question. Everyone's going to be there. Stanley, Phyllis, Angela, Daryl, Creed's a maybe. Creed's going. What is the context? Because we say that all the time. We love quoting it. Who is that? Kevin's saying everyone's going? What is the context of this? Because we say that all the time. We love quoting it.
Starting point is 00:42:07 Who is that? Kevin's saying everyone's going to be there. What would it be? Can you think of multiple choice off the top of your head of what he's inviting them to? Oh, man. That might be tough. No, I can't.
Starting point is 00:42:17 Yeah, it's going to be too hard. It's too easy to give you the answer. Just the one that was in the office. Yeah, I guess I don't know again. I'm about to go four for eight on this. Hey, that's okay. I think this is a hard thing to do without seeing the answer. Just the one that was in the office. Yeah, I guess I don't know again. I'm about to go like four for eight on this. Hey, that's okay. I think this is a hard thing to do without seeing the video. How about I show you the video of this one? Hey, okay.
Starting point is 00:42:32 This one, the video will actually make a difference. Everyone's gonna be there. Stanley, Phyllis, Angela, Daryl, Creed's maybe. Creed's going? So if there's listening, yeah, I'm now seeing it as Halloween.
Starting point is 00:42:49 They're in costumes. So I'm guessing, I still don't know for sure. I mean, it's someone's Halloween party. Yeah, it's a later season. Creed's a maybe? Who would it be? Robert California? No, good guess.
Starting point is 00:43:03 All right, I'll show you the extended clip. I am never going to forget what Danny did to Pam. I forget nothing. I'm like an elephant in that way. You know what else? This sucks for Jim. But it also sucks for us
Starting point is 00:43:19 because we don't get invited to a ton of Halloween parties. Yeah, and like everyone's going to be there. Stanley, Phyllis, Angela, Daryl, Creed's a maybe. Creed's going?
Starting point is 00:43:35 There you go. Danny Cordray. Forget about him. Yeah, my bar, public school, or whatever. Yeah. Remember my bar? Public school. It's a great name. Ryan loves the name. So yeah, that's been Office in a Flash. That's really fun. Thanks for prepping that. You're welcome.
Starting point is 00:43:49 It was Extra Poultry of the Week, brought to you by Good Ranchers. You can't screen record the audio on your computer? That's lame. I agree. You can use your MacBook microphone, but it sounded terrible. So I was trying to do it on my computer last night. I was i was like this isn't working there have been countless times where i've like i've been like okay this time i'm gonna find some software that can do it sure never have
Starting point is 00:44:11 it's amazing i'm sure they're out there i just don't want it i'm like then i'm like i'll just do it on my phone exactly especially because you can do it on your phone it's like it's one thing if the technology doesn't exist it's another thing where it's like hey the exact same company that makes both things is just not allowing you to do it on one of them yeah i think about every now and then how you told me i think it's so interesting that netflix won't let you down download something offline on your computer yeah it's not an ipad i know interesting i know what's that about it's like yeah maybe there's just so much more capabilities of things you can hack yeah because it would be an actual file at that point ipad it's not just within the app. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:44:46 I don't know. I don't know. But you should be able to. Fine. Make it within Netflix. Let me have an app that's Netflix on the App Store, and I'll download it for this. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:44:55 Yeah. Hey. Hey. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So anyway, that's been Office in a Flash. Hope you guys liked it. I know Andrew Thurbrush liked it.

Starting point is 00:47:38 Loved it. All right. Um, a lot of comments about, uh, how we didn't know a cup versus a pound thing. I think I meant pound, but either way, like people are like, uh, I would not want to, you know, see them cook or whatever. I guarantee you, Jake and I are resourceful enough that we are not confident in how much
Starting point is 00:47:54 a cup or a pound is. And we would Google it. If we had to. Brad and I are big Googlers. We would be just fine. We'd be Googling the whole time. Brad and I definitely agree because our wives are the same. We're like, it's okay. Let's just wonder and just not know. Let's just, yeah, let's just be curious. Why not
Starting point is 00:48:08 know? Why be curious when you can be smart? Catherine the other day, dude, she like, whatever, this has kind of stuck with me and I've kind of like gotten onto her about it. She's like, you know, Brad, like something about me. And I forget who she compared herself to. Another one of our friends was like, we just love to learn. You're not really a big learner. I kind of was offended by that. I was like, I think I seek out answers more than she does. Is this because she reads and you don't? I think that's got to be the main thing is like, yeah. But I'm like, listen, I learned how to run a business doing woodworking. I've never done that in my life. And then I decided to just like make it a business.
Starting point is 00:48:48 Like it's like, uh, did Nate do the joke with you? I do my own laundry. Yeah. So that was great. Save it up for six months. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:48:55 The time was right. I'm going to let her know that I do my own laundry. Yeah. It just comes up all the time where she'll just be like, I don't know. And I'm like, well, let me look it up.
Starting point is 00:49:02 Cause I like to learn things. It's just silly to me. Like, she's like, thanks. She's better than me in that regard. I think I would back you up. Like, look at like, I have a podcast. I learned how to do YouTube. Like I didn't know any of this stuff. I would say you very much learned how to monetize a very small podcast. Yeah. It's like, yeah, we have abilities here. Like, anyway, so all I have to say. I wonder if Rachel thinks I like to learn. She probably would say so. You love to learn.
Starting point is 00:49:30 Oh, yeah. I could give you a TED Talk on potholes. It was pretty good. Yeah, it was all right. I gave you a 30-second version yesterday. What did Peter say? Yeah, because Scott was upset. Not to be missed or worth the wait?
Starting point is 00:49:44 Worth the wait. Let me find one here for you. Learning's great. You know, I was telling Rachel just last night, a little Valentine's dinner. I was telling her, I was like, you know, just FYI, as I learned about myself, I think I'm always going to have something in my life.
Starting point is 00:49:58 It's like a little side quest, a little thing on the side that I feel like I'm getting better at. It was pickleball, then it was golf, then it briefly came back to pickleball, and now it feels like it's chess where I'm just so into chess because I feel I could see myself getting better at it. Yeah. I was like, so just FYI, if I identify this self on myself, I will, I will always have something on the side that I feel like I'm getting better at. Like it's a, it's a staple. I have to have it. You have to have something that you're not good at yet, though?
Starting point is 00:50:27 Yeah, I think so. Something I can see visual objective improvement in. Gotta have something that's not work-related on the side. Do you think you've always been like that, or is that a newer thing? I don't know. There's been enough time over the last four years I've had it, but I wonder if it's always been there. I don't know. That's just me.
Starting point is 00:50:43 I'm gonna go with Luke Bowman, 08. Just a shout out one more time to Timon. Golly, the guy's good. I've played that Main Street Roasters jingle over 10 times, LOL. It's so catchy. Wow. If you are an advertiser out there, Timon, not yet. Okay.
Starting point is 00:51:00 Hey, hold off real quick, Timon. Real quick, just... Why don't you put your hand down? Put your hand down. Thanks. Just go ahead and just... Yeah. Just go ahead and mute me. Yeah real quick, Ty. Real quick, just... Hey, why don't you put your hand down? Put your hand down. Thanks. Just go ahead and just... Yeah. Just go ahead and mute me.
Starting point is 00:51:09 Yeah, yeah, yeah. Just go ahead and... Why don't you head to the restroom real quick? Brad, go ahead. Take a quick... Hit the head. Why don't you go run your mile real quick? If you're an advertiser out there and you're saying, gosh, I just hate that my ads just
Starting point is 00:51:20 keep getting skipped. We have evidence that people are listening to our ads not just once but ten times over. That's Main Street Roasters in it. So that's my comment of the week. Keep going.
Starting point is 00:51:37 How is that jingle? Like the melody of it. It's your voice is pure. It's like the way you sing it is nice pure sugar cane unadulterated thank you i can't like i can't i'm not as nearly like the i remember one time it was in arizona that episode we filmed at the airbnb animals yeah harrison sang with me it was like i can't sing like that like harrison has just like that different kind of voice, and Tymon's got it too. Yeah. Here we go again.
Starting point is 00:52:08 The way he said it was just like... Yeah, Harrison, I like hearing Harrison sing. Tymon is like Nitro Cold Brew, though. Tell me about it. From Main Street Roasters. From Main Street Roasters, yeah. Just as smooth as you can get, as money can buy. It's just nice.
Starting point is 00:52:20 What did you do last... I don't know. You kind of had a little run. Was it in that Evan Hansen song? Maybe last i don't know you kind of had a little run was it in that evan hansen song maybe i don't know it was just like a just a just a sweet little subtle one and it was just like i like the way that sounded timing while we're on timing uh well not now let me let me talk yeah sorry timing just let me finish this just once geez um it's our. Just let me get it out. Someone put in the Facebook group, did you see this comment? It was like, I know everyone's been loving
Starting point is 00:52:50 Tymon's horse jingle. Personally, I love the Main Street Roasters one better. I didn't like the horse jingle. Something about that, I prefer the Main Street Roasters one way over the horse jingle. And then she's like, I've also never heard of the original. So like, well, that makes sense. Yeah, if you've never heard, and then they're both just made up songs to you.
Starting point is 00:53:07 Yeah. That's fair. I think if you've heard the Justin Bieber song, then you're like, oh my gosh. Yeah. It's just so carbon copy. Yeah. It's like they took Justin's voice. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:53:17 Yeah. All right, time. What were you gonna sing? Go ahead, Tyler. Uh, I think, I think I already said what I was going to say. Just like, I don't know how, I don't know how people like found that because it wasn't are they talking about the one that was like da da da da da da da is that what they're talking about i honestly don't even remember how like the one that we were trying to do like a reggae thing i bet
Starting point is 00:53:37 and then i completely like made that made it like did not fit the genre at all i doubt it was the reggae one you know what i've noticed, is that people really enjoy when you fail. I've noticed it too. I love when Jake fails. I will listen to things again when Jake has a blunder. Yeah, you had me do a Mahomes impersonation at a Gene Schwartz video because you knew. I don't think that was why I did that.
Starting point is 00:53:58 Oh, really? I didn't mind it. But it was pretty... Whatever you said, dude, we should find that video because the words you said were like, so right. It was just like, I'm doing a thing. It was like something like that. Like I'm trying my best. It was like, no, but it wasn't even like a phrase that people say. I don't even know. I think, I think I have, I don't know what it was. It was something
Starting point is 00:54:21 more times over. It was great. Yeah. What was that? What video? Is that the good name video? What would it have been? I don't know. We had some fun doing some juice shorts last week.
