My wife, Rachel, has been interning at an elementary school as a counselor, and it's been going really well. She really likes it, loves everyone there. There is one student, though, that thinks her name is Mrs. Pork. Thoughts? How? How? How? Mrs. Pork's not... One syllable is as close as you're getting to that. It's like he's... Maybe he's got dyslexia. He's just doing it backwards. Because Mrs. Pook is pretty close to Mrs. Pork. Is that how dyslexia works?

I don't know, dude. Come along, let's have some fun and go ahead, get on your feet, because it's the Ghost Ruff's Podcast. Ceremonial morning, we're taking ground. Ghost Ruff's Podcast. Ghost Ruff's Podcast. Jake, it's ceremonial time. We've gotten a few comments on this. Is it time? Let me put my banana down. People are frustrated about this.

I think it's my Kleenex, so I'm going to pick it up. Okay, you got it. Just in case it's got, you know, Rona from five years ago on it or something. Multiple people have said, hey, what's up with this Kleenex on the ground? It's kind of bothering my OCD. So here I go. I'm going to eat or I'm going to eat. I'm going to take my Kleenex

and I'm going to throw it over here on the ground where you can't see it and keep it there for another, you know, five years. Here we go. Here it goes. Oh! can't see it and keep it there for another you know five years here we go here it goes wow see we got in here it's uh it's actually a paper towel okay so still looks like it might have been used kleenex uh adjacent looks like my it looks like mine I don't know. There's not much in here. It's mainly just wadded up. Thanks for the rundown of what's in there. How are you doing? How are you feeling today? I'm feeling good. I'm feeling not as rested as I could be, but that's okay. It's been a little bit

of, I don't know, what is it? It's been 4,000 days? I don't know. I'm just kidding. Like four days of sickness in my house. It feels like we've been sick all winter. I don't know. Like we get over one thing and it's like, hey, that was a fun three hours that we were all healthy. Yeah. It's like we looked at a piece of candy. We're all sick again.

It's tough when you got, yeah, three little kids in like a relatively small space. Yeah. Easier to get sick that way. And it's like, it's, it's just, yeah, just Catherine and Hattie right now. And Hattie's already kind of turned a corner. Catherine's just going through it, which that obviously makes it harder when it's one of the two people in charge. Yeah. Uh, so yeah, it's been a little bit of a rough time and yeah, it doesn't, I don't know. Thankfully, it's not like we're all sick at the same time, but also that kind of stinks because then it's just like one of us is sick for three days and the next person's sick for three days, you know, like, and so it just takes a lot longer. Yeah. But, um, no, I'm, I'm, I'm good. I don't have, I told you last night,

I was like, I don't have that much written down this week because been spending time with the kids at home. So I have a few things if you want me to tell you about them. Um, great. Uh, yeah. So on, on Sunday I still did volunteer at the nursery. Catherine was sick, but I was like, I can help out in the nursery if you want me to. Um, a kid called me squishy. Ah, he was like, I was like holding them, like trying to like kind of calm them down,

calm them down, doing a good job. How old? Uh, three, I think two and a half or three. Like this, that's the other thing, this, this nursery room that I'm in the, the age ranges like two to three is a big deal. Like that's a big, it goes up to like middle school, doesn't it? Well, you mean, Oh yeah. Yeah, dude. It's wild. It's like a nursery youth group. We should not be playing dodgeball. I don't understand what they're doing in there. Like these kids are like, like skin is being broken. Like these kids are getting hit so hard. nursery youth group. We should not be playing dodgeball. I don't understand what they're doing in there.

These kids are skin is being broken. These kids are getting hit so hard. Wildly enough, some of the middle schoolers still have diapers on as well, though. I don't know. Show me an age that doesn't want milk. They're all excited for goldfish.

No, it was this kid. He was sitting with me. He was saying a compliment almost, like I was a comfortable guy. But he, no, it was this kid. He was sitting with me and I mean, he was just like, he was saying like a compliment almost like I was a comfortable guy, but he was like, you're pretty squishy. Thank you. All right. I was like flexing my bicep. I was like, oh yeah, that's right. You think that's squishy little rigid in places.

You feel that one little bit of movement right there. So imagine like Dwight when, uh, he's like having trouble finding a vein. Yeah. It's giving me some trouble. What about, how about now?

Does that, that's you? I'm squishy. Go get that dodgeball over there. If you think I'm squishy. So that was fun. Not, not too much else.

Uh, too eventful from church. Um, and then yesterday it was a beautiful day. It was a classic, the most classic of the Midwestern days ever. Like, I don't even know if this is really a classic Midwestern day. It's like a stereotypical.

Oh, I was going to say record-breaking. That's what I'm saying. Like everyone was always like, if you don't like the weather, wait five minutes. It was literally like that yesterday. Oh, yeah. Go into Hy-Vee Arena for a volleyball game. It's like starting to get windy, but it's like 55 or so. Leave volleyball game. And it was 36. Really? So, you know, something around there. It was so, it was glue. I was telling time and it was like almost like scary. Like,

yeah. Like there was some, like some, like God was in that wind. It was like a movie where like, yeah, the story is starting to turn and it goes from like a, a still flag to then all of a sudden, like, and the flag starts to turn the other direction a little bit. Is, is day after tomorrow, like the most dated reference to time and like, Oh dude, like just a super mediocre movie that like only people in our generation.

No, I literally talked about it this week on correct opinion. So no, I'm with you on day after tomorrow references. It's just like, yeah. Like, it's just like,

it's like day after tomorrow. Like, I think we literally hit, uh, the highest temperature we've ever hit just like, yeah, like, it's just like, it's like day after tomorrow. Like, I think we literally hit the highest temperature we've ever hit in February or maybe for that day or something yesterday. And then we woke up this morning, there was snow on the ground. Yeah. And I mean, it's like dusting, but still plenty cold enough. Yesterday I spent, I think I spent five hours outside. Today, I think I could not spend five minutes outside. I woke up this morning, Rich and I waking up and I go, how is someone using a weed eater today? It's freezing cold

outside. And she's like, I think it's a snowblower. I was like, wow, you're right. That does make sense. I knew it was cold, but I was still like, I was in spring mode. Also, I do think I saw you outside yesterday. I ran my mile, thought about getting your attention, but it looked like you might've been dead on your trampoline. Yep, that's the game we've been playing. So yeah, 100%. Yeah, you should have stuck around. I didn't see any kids, though. Oh, really?

Yeah, yeah. No, that's part of it. That's part of it. And I just go to the trampoline and just kind of wallow there for a few minutes. That's hilarious. You just look like Brad's like, oh, Brad's just going through it. So he's just on this trampoline by himself. I mean, I don't know. I figured there was probably a reason or a kid had just gone inside or something. So recently, I mean, for the longest time, my, my calling card

in life with my kids, I feel like it's one of those things where like, I do so many things for my kids. The only thing they're ever going to remember is when dad was math monster. That's like my thing. I don't know if I've talked about math monster much on the podcast, but that's like their favorite thing to do with me. It's literally just wrestling on the trampoline. And then when I catch them, I mean, this is the most homeschool dad thing ever, but I make them answer a math problem before they leave. That's awesome. And so like with, and it's kind of fun. Cause it's just my way of like seeing how, how far can we get this thing? Like, cause, cause Hattie, it's crazy. it's crazy. I can start doing fractions with her and stuff. But with Bo, it's like, okay, Bo, I have two eyes.

You have two eyes. How many eyes do we have all together? And then he literally pushes on my eyes to count them. He's like, one. Because then Rosie was on there yesterday, and I was like, how many do all three of us have? And he's literally shoving his finger in Rosie's eyes. It's like,

I don't know why the oldest kids are always sick, but he's the math monster. He's literally the monster. Uh, so anyway, but his thing and had, he kind of, uh,

taught it to him. It's how he started to like become a dictator of math monster where she'll have different rules. And one of the rules that she often likes to do is, Dad, you can't hear anything or you can't feel anything. And if I do this with my sword, you fall asleep. And so Bo is always like, Dad, you can't hear anything, but you can feel things. And so I'm always like, what did you say I can't hear? He's like, you can hear right now, but you can't hear once you fall asleep. I was like, okay. And so then he'll just come up with this sword and pretend to like cut off my feet. And I'm like, wake up. Hey,

but every once in a while I'll fall asleep and he'll just jump off the trampoline and go to the playhouse for a while. And I'm like, all right, what am I supposed to be doing here? That's what I saw. And so then I'm a bump on a log, not the worst thing in the world. It's a nice day outside. Yeah. It was still really sunny and kind of warm at that point. Pretty cozy. That's definitely what happened there. That's the math monster. Okay, that's fun. It's fun. It's a good time for everybody. But yeah, yesterday

was outside a lot. Rosie and I put together this swing. Catherine wanted to swing for our porch, like a little bench swing. We had one in the past, and it blew away. It didn't blow away completely, but blew away enough to like break it.

Yeah. So she's like, we need to get another one. All right, well, let's get another one. And so Bo, I like convinced Bo yesterday,

like, Hey Bo, let's have quiet time on the swing today. Like outside, you know, knowing like full well, it's going to help your health. It's going to be freezing tomorrow.

And so he's sitting on this swing, listening to his magic tree house and a big gust of wind comes dude. And genuinely with Bo on the swing, just like takes the swing and like lifts it up off the ground and falls backwards onto the ground. And Bo, first of all, I think I'm going to not need to worry about retirement because he's going to be a professional athlete. The way he jumped off of that thing. Really? Oh, he just jumped off and he didn't even like scream or yell or anything.

He just kind of looked around like, what just happened? Like he didn't say a thing. I mean, this wind just threw him off and he just jumped off and he's just looking around like, oh. I'm hungry. Yeah. He just moved on. He didn't like it.

I mean, yeah, later on he was like, I don't think we should sit on there anymore. I didn't like it. I mean, yeah. Later on, he was like, I don't, I don't think we should sit on there anymore. I was like, it'll be okay. But it's really windy. So that's, that's about all I got as far as updates.

Okay. I'm sure I have a few more things in here. Oh, I did a podcast with the guy. Burn it all now. Yeah. Yeah. I'll just go do it all. And then we can just do your,

it just be your podcast from then on out. Did a podcast with a guy, uh, Devinenderson shout out to him uh in his um his just be cool brad be cool his uh his his producer is timon's friend zach um and so that was fun to do that you did a podcast with him yeah yeah gotcha that was like the one time I was not with my kids was on Monday for like an hour and a half. So, um, yeah, that was fun. See Zach in the flesh.

Why was I texting Zach? What did he, Zach just gets around, man. Yeah. He's the first one on the live every time he's always commenting something. Oh yeah. I think he commented after one of my live streams. Okay. It said that was fun. Yeah. And, uh, Oh, on that live stream, Rachel would ask, I'm like,

what coffee shop do you work at? I want to come see it. And he goes, I quit today. Oh yeah. And so, yeah, I was talking to you about it. He said, no, I, uh, I'm a podcast producer as well. Landscaping company, whatever. Oh, he's just grinding. And then yeah, the possibility mindset podcast possibility mindset. Yeah. You were on it. I was on it. It was grinding. And then, yeah, the Possibility Mindset podcast. Possibility Mindset, yeah. And so you were on it. I was on it. It was fun. It was, yeah, check it out. I don't know when my episode's going to be on there, but it was fun to talk.

I mean, I try to be pretty chill and relaxed like this, but he also asked some more serious questions, so I answered some of those. But it's always just fun to kind of reflect on our journey of podcasting and how it all came about. Yeah, what was kind of, what's the typical like structure or just like content on this? Cause to me it sounds like a positivity mindset and you got to read it again. Like no possibility. Possibility mindset. Possibility mindset sounds pretty positive in my opinion. Oh yeah. It sounds like you want to have a negative mindset. Yeah. Possibly.

So yeah. So Devin is a keynote speaker and I think that's his keynote. That's what it's called. And so I think it's just the idea of like, you know, rethinking what's possible or just reevaluate. Like. I like that. Kind of dreaming basically. I like to tell people that things are surprisingly possible in life. Yeah.

I think that's probably very similar to Jason. I like it. So get on the podcast. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. He's a cool dude. Yeah.

We met at egg cetera which was fun yeah just like a little back room there and zach was legit man and i think what i learned you did a podcast in this breakfast yeah yeah i mean it was like in their own like secluded like little area but yeah it was pretty funny wow like back yeah i know i was like you can do this like um it was in like your back like okay it was it was the kitchen it was very loud? It was in your back. It was the kitchen. It was very loud. It was in the kitchen. There were a lot of people on it. They actually, yeah.

Technically, they make you scramble eggs, but it's not that hard, right? Anybody can do that. It's possible. With the right mindset, you can work in this kitchen. It's how they do it. Yeah.

So anyway, it was fun. Sorry, you were saying something about Zach. No, it's just Zach did a good job. Shout out to Zach. I mean, I think he literally asked Tymon, like, hey, what kind of gear do Jake and Brad use? Because it was a very similar setup, like microphones and everything.

Is that right, Tymon? Yeah, I mean, he didn't know that much, so I just gave him a bunch of tips and specific gear things, and he just kind of just figured it out. Yeah, he's getting after it. So he's got the, well,

no, he had the Sennheiser or whatever, the red one that we used to have. Oh yeah. Scarlet. Scarlet. Yeah. Anyway.

So how many more of your friends do you think will become lower level podcast producers? Do we think we can get at least one more? Hey, possibility mindset. It's going to be a higher level. I know it's fun to like watch the, uh, the time and trickle down, you know? Yes. You know, weibility Mindset, it's going to be a higher level podcast. I know it's fun to like watch the time and trickle down, you know?

Yes. You know, we employ time in, but then, I mean, that has, I mean, a tsunami effect on the culture of Kansas City. Well, and look at how many things time has done because of the podcast. I mean, he's done video stuff for you. Good point. So. No, I think other people have asked you stuff too.

He filmed our jean shorts video. Filmed the jean shorts video. No, people have asked him. TJ's asked him to do some work. What other inquiries do you get, Tymon? I don't know. I know there's been a few people asking about editing some clips for them and stuff

like that, specifically from the podcast. But, yeah, I don't know. Oh, they are like, hey, I know there's been a few people like asking about like editing some clips for them and stuff like that from like specifically from the podcast. But yeah, I don't know. I just, oh, they like, or like, Hey, I love this part of the podcast. Can you like clip it for me? Like sometimes people have their own like clips or like video things. Like TJ maybe. Oh, their podcast. Their podcast.

Yeah. Their podcast. What would you, if you could get most excited, would you, if you could choose, you would probably video or would you edit? I think video. I think like I love hands-on onset that part. Hey, today, 3 p.m., Chicken Pickle. Got to see him in action.

Let him watch. Let him watch. What are we doing this week? So we got four videos today, hopefully timing. Going to try to knock out four. So we're bringing in one. Hopefully, Tymon. Gonna try to knock out four. So we're bringing one of... We're bringing in one of Scott's other 5.0, almost professional pickleballer friends.

What was his name? TJ. TJ, yeah. Always doing tournaments with TJ. Yeah, partners. So we're gonna do a lot of doubles today. I think pretty much every video, it's gonna be me and Isaac,

4.0 versus 5.0, and just a series of different challenges. So one I want to do where the 5.0s have a much larger kitchen, like there's more space between them and the net. That's kind of fun. One where the 4.0s have less kitchen. Just altering the rules slightly one way or the other. Yeah. I want to do one where the 5.0s have like Walmart paddles or maybe wooden paddles. We get our normal paddles. Cool. I think that's interesting. Like, yeah, how big of a difference can we beat them now?

Make sure that you do, and then you can like sponsor your paddles. Like be like, see, it makes a difference. You could beat 5.0s with these paddles. 5.0s aren't that good. It's just the paddles. It's just the paddle. Speaking of pickleball rankings. So I signed Isaac and I up for a tournament.

Our first tournament, probably two years. Yeah. Excited about it here coming up. And I get an email from I up for a tournament. Our first tournament in probably two years. I'm excited about it here coming up. And I get an email from the guy running the tournament. And he's like, hey, Jake, saw that you and Isaac signed up for a 4.0 division. I just want to ask, would you be willing to move up to 4.5? We just feel like it might make people feel uncomfortable and maybe it's unfair seeing as you are a 4.8.

And I go, whoa. I screenshot immediately and sent it to Scott. I was like, what does this mean? How am I? What do you mean as you are 4.8 and i go whoa i screenshot immediately it's hidden scott i was like what does this mean how am i what do you mean i'm a 4.8 i didn't even know they had 0.8s yeah i so this is something that has come out since isaac and i stopped playing pickleball like duper or whatever so you say it duper you nailed it yeah duper so i thought it was this was all just like a you sign up for the app and you track your own scores and it ranks it for you. I was like, I don't need that. I'm not really playing enough to care about this. Well, apparently other people could track things for you and put you down for stuff. So I've had a ranking this whole time. Had no idea.

Oh, wow. Turns out it's 4.8. Who's ranking? So I've been walking around just a little taller, a little stronger, a little faster, a little quicker. I'm 4.8, yeah. Oh, I remind Scott and Isaac about it constantly. Yeah. Because 5.0 is perfect.

I mean, as high as it gets. Not necessarily. It kind of used to be like 5.0 is the highest level you can play at a tournament until pro. But there are pros who are ranked 6.3 or 6.8. So what is the high? Great question. No idea. idea okay i don't know if it goes above seven okay um but either way yeah i just remind them constantly like just played a little bit i mean i gotta keep that 4.8 so what's what is scott uh scott's like a five

point something 5.2 okay so are you saying that technically we could all get on the Duper app and just boost the heck out of you and get you to 5.3? That's what it sounds like to me. I don't know how. I would just love to make it so that you're better than Scott. That's all I want to do. It's definitely flawed because I'm definitely not that good at pickleball. Like the algorithm's off.

No, you are good. Well, yeah, probably not a 5.0 good though. Yeah, it feels a little flawed. So yeah, there's definitely some loopholes in here. It seems so subjective. The whole ranking yourself, knowing yourself kind of thing is so subjective anyway. I was looking, and there were some people who charted

like when Rachel's cousin came down at Halloween to play in that tournament with me, and we beat someone, best two out of three, we beat them 11-0, 11-0. And so I was like, oh, I wonder how this affected. And it did help because they were ranked 4.5s. And I was like, okay, so this is on them. Like they said that they were this rank.

And since we beat them, like a lot of flaws. I'm so intrigued now because it's like, okay, how much of it is longevity or like quantity? How much of it is quality? Because it sounds like quality is more, but like if these guys are 4.5 and they were pretty bad, it sounds like. Yeah. There's a lot of flaws. Cause I think you, you start off by self-ranking and then it just bases everything off that. Oh, okay. Well you lost, but you're still this. So I'm not, you know, I mean, yeah. And it's, it makes sense to rank yourself low. don't know maybe not but like why would you want to be

ranked really high and then go and play in all these tournaments and just see your number go down well and or just get whooped the entire time yeah like that's not fun it's more fun to whoop up on other people a little bit you know like when we played wreck that one uh division like that time it was like this is kind fun. We're winning most of our games. It's pretty relaxed. We're still winning by 15 to 20 points every time, you know, whereas intermediate, it's like, that was a big challenge. We almost won.

Wasn't this fun? Yeah. You know, I, I don't know. I have, I have feelings on both sides. Yeah. I emailed the guy back and I was like, I'm very sorry. I didn't mean to sandbag. I was like, but I haven't played much the past two years.

The last tournament I was in was a 4.0 tournament. We came in tied for third. I feel like that was probably the league I needed to be in. Especially because, yeah, I guess you're getting sharper now, but you were so much sharper back then probably, right? Yeah. But yeah, I'm just king of the castle right now, 4.8. I mean, I'm going to sign everything like that. Hey, thanks for coming, Jake Triplett, 4.8. 4.8, yeah. Yeah, I mean'm just king of the castle right now 4.8 i mean i'm going to sign everything like that hey thanks for coming jake triplet 4.8 4.8 yeah yeah i mean that's just

who i am 4.8 gpa and duper yeah waited i i took weighted classes so that's great i i uh i really want to get you or maybe we just uh like rank scott and like say that we beat him 11-0 every time yeah can he deny it? Can we, can we dispute it? Or can we literally sabotage Scott down to like a 2.9? They won't let him in the pro tournaments anymore. It's like,

dude, you're losing games 11-0. I don't know what to tell you. No, I'm not. TJ, back me up, dude.

Back me up. I'm not. I don't know, Scott. I haven't been there every time. It would be funny to dupe. Maybe that's why I call it duper. Duper.

Because you dupe people into it. Like today, later today, we beat them with wooden paddles. They're like, sorry, we're putting in a duper. Like, still lost, though. Yeah. Still said it. I mean, yeah. Did you play the game, and did you lose?

You did? Okay. So 11-3, I'm putting in a duper. Sorry. Yeah. Did you? Does it say on here you have to use a certain kind of paddle in order to? I'll put in duper.

See if it has its wooden paddle rankings. Oh, it doesn't have that. No, it doesn't. Okay, well. I'll just put the score down there. I'll just, yeah. They'll assume, right? That's great. Okay. That's fun. So you're doing four videos with TJ. Yes. Okay. Barely met him. Don't know much about him. Looked him up online and I saw that his wife's Instagram says follower of Jesus. Yeah. That's

all I know. Great. Him and his wife both have tattoos. Okay, those are two things I know. So how much of them? Okay, his last name is Stansberry. Those are three things I know. Okay. Okay, I saw he has a separate pickleball Instagram than his regular Instagram. Those are four things I know. What's his Instagram called? It's TJ.KC for regular Teej. TJ.PB for

pickleball. I kind of like it. He's ready to brand himself. Yeah, he's ready. If he moves to LA, TJ.LA. If he... TJLA like brand himself. Yeah, he's ready. If he moves to LA, TJ.LA. If he... TJLA. TJLA. Yeah, shout out. If he...

What else would be two letters? If he gets into a... Car accident, TJCA. Yeah, that's a better one. If he gets in... Gluten allergy, TJGA. TJGA. Yeah. He gets in... Gluten allergy. T-J-G-A. G-A. T-J-G-A. Yeah. If he decides to be friends with Tymon.

T-J-T-E-F. Oh. Tymon's friend. Oh. T-J-F. So yeah, he's set up well. And it'll be fun. If he turns 40.

T-J-A-F. Right? If he's 39. After 40. Yeah. Oh, almost 40. Almost 40. Oh, that can be confusing. Or he can start now. I'll talk to him about it.

I'll let him know. Yeah, I would let him. I'll let him know. So yeah, that'll be fun. I'm going to film with time of the day. Shout out to all the ghosties in the comment section in the last Friday Pickleball video. I know I hyped it up a lot, but still.

Yeah, when do I win? Very pleased. Thank you. You were the first comment. Yes, I was. I was like, yeah, I was ready to watch. You were. I was so ready. I was this. This must be how the commoners feel every single time for the jean shorts and the ghost runners.

The commoner. That was a joke, guys. But yeah, I was like, why does it have to start? Why does it have to come out at 10 why can't it come out like 8 a.m i'm ready to watch it right now i'm ready now and then it was 10 o'clock and i refreshed and it didn't show up till 1001 and i was i was about to text you at 10 o'clock hey i was like hey maybe you did the time zone wrong or something and i was like i'm not waiting another hour i either need a private link for this thing or get it on there, man. Uh, yeah, but people have been so nice. I

mean, we post this thing and we have, we've never posted a video like it and have next to no subscribers, but yeah, it's already got 5,000 views and like 250 comments. Yeah. So it's working. Yeah. This might've been the best idea I've ever had for anything social media, to do a free paddle, a video thing. So I'm pumped. Yeah. That's awesome. The video next week will be a good one. Get the wheel out.

Okay. Have you filmed all those? We filmed one that will come out this Friday when we're recording this, and one more that we've already filmed that will come out the Friday they're listening to this. You're stocking up. Backlog. That's they're listening to this. You're stocking up. Backlog. That's good. That's fun.

Anyway, so yeah, I think next I want to talk about, I loved this Facebook post in our post-runners group chat. Chris Dale, The Psycho Behavior. Yeah, I have a name for the segment. Oh, sorry. No, it's okay. Go ahead. I'll say the name and then you make the noise for it.

Great. Or like you make it crazy. We're calling it sane or psycho. Is that what you meant? Sure. I thought you were going to say the words in a funny way. But maybe you did. I made it crazy. Yes, dude. I's great. I thought you were going to say the words in a funny way. Oh. But maybe you did. I made it crazy.

Yes, dude. I saw this. I purposely didn't read all the comments because I want to read them on the podcast together. Great. But yeah, I saw your comment. I was like, that's pretty great. I saw my dad's comment this morning. Oh, I haven't seen his comment.

Okay. Let's just go through it. Okay. Go through it. So yeah, go ahead. Give us the introduction for it. Chris Dale said, I thought this might be a fun post following the switching sides of the bed debacle what's your psycho behavior habit mine is eating everything with a fork soup ice cream cereal doesn't matter which is a great start and then someone the first comment

someone thought that they ate all these things together. And they go, milk broth? Wow. And he's like, I don't eat them together. I eat everything with a fork. Vicky's psycho behavior is not knowing. He's thinking people are that crazy. Milk broth? You're a psycho because you believe that.

You think that somebody else is capable of being that psychotic. I think we should read some of these. This person thinks that he eats everything. All of mine. Mine is eating everything. But yeah, I think we should read some of these and just decide, are they sane or are they psycho?

That is funny. If you read it literally, my behavior is eating everything with a fork. Wow, this guy eats everything on earth. Take them literally. Yeah, sane. Sane or psycho? Sane or psycho.

Hayley Koontz, very faithful listener, always asking for people's win of the week. Saw her in Harris, Michigan. She says she intentionally lets her cereal get soggy before she starts to eat. Whoa, excuse me. Sane or psycho? Psycho, dude.

Psycho. Psycho for sure. But it depends because I would say I relate to it like 20% because you got to let it soak a bit. Just a little bit. Psycho. No, no, no, no, no, no. Yeah, time is not standing down.

I like it. Yeah, I think like this isn't crazy psycho to me. We're going to see some that really deserve the term psycho. Fair, I, no, no, no. Yeah, time is not standing down. I like it. Yeah, I think this isn't crazy psycho to me. We're going to see some that really deserve the term psycho. Fair, I haven't read them all yet. This is like 60-40 psycho. I don't, like soggy cereal is gross, but when it still feels dry, it's like the milk's there for a reason.

It has to get wet. To get it wet. Yes, it has to be wet. You said 20 seconds though, Tymon. That's enough. No, no, no, I said I relate to this about 20%. That's right. That was a 20 I heard. You said your vision's 20-20 though, and we know that's enough. No, no, no. I said I relate to this about 20%. That's right. That was a 20 I heard.

You said your vision's 20-20 though and we know it's not. No, I think, yeah, you do need the right amount of ratio. Like if you don't have enough milk in your cereal, it is a bummer. But like... Because then you might as well just eat it with your hand out of the box. But to intentionally wait till it gets... Go take a nap. Go for a run.

Soggy fill in the blank is the worst kind of that fill in the blank is that true always uh no soggy sandwich okay there was one specific type of cookie i could think of that used to they were like almost like oatmeal cookies not oatmeal cream pies but like a little frosting on top of these cookies and they were so hard i usually let those kind of soak in my mouth they got a lot better afterwards. Really specific. I guess that is soggy. I was ready to be like, that's not soggy, but yeah. Okay. Maybe

I'm just going to think everything is psycho because I think that's, I think to watch somebody pour their milk in their cereal and then just be like, all right, I'm going to take a shower. I'll be right back. Also, are you putting it back in the fridge? Because lukewarm milk in anything is nasty. The psychoness goes up the more,

like any time after five minutes, I think. Like if this is 10, 15, 20 minutes, then you got a real problem, Haley. Yeah. Okay. Okay. All right. Let's see some other ones.

This one, how psycho is it to have full-on conversations with oneself in the shower? This is from Erica Nicole. Out loud? Out loud Erica Nicole. Out loud? Out loud seems psycho. Out loud is like the definition of psycho. Like you're literally talking to somebody that's not there.

And full-on conversations, like if you're doing two different voices or just two different sides of a conversation, out loud, psych. I got to bring in a third party. What's going on here? You're like washing your hair. What's going on here? Yeah. You're like washing your hair. What's going on? Yeah, that's psycho. If it's out loud.

If it's just in your own head, I think that's very common. Very sane. I will say my mother-in-law apparently in the last couple years has developed talking to herself. I don't know. I don't know why, but it sounds like you're in the other room. She's like, Oh, and I didn't do that. Oh yeah. Oh, sounds like a psycho. Oh yeah. Oh shoot. What's going on? God is like, Oh yeah, she just started talking to herself recently. Wow.

Just a developed, just new skill. Oh, I still need to go. Oh, okay. Yeah. I'll do that in a second.

I'm going to, I'm going to do this first. I'm going to go there. That's the wrong curse for that. So anyway, that's not going to work. Yeah. Something I wrote down,

just first thing I thought of, I said, my psycho behavior used to be that I would never write anything down or take notes because I thought I was helping my future self with memory loss. That was a real dumb stage of life. When was this?

How old? It was like college, maybe a little out of college. That just sounds like the guy that's like, I'm going to try to not take notes. Like that's going to be my excuse. Just straight up lazy. Rachel's waving.

Bye, Rachel. Bye, everybody. Have a great day. Thank ya i did do not disturb yeah i think this is just a time in life where i didn't have a lot going on so i didn't need a calendar so it's like you want me to come over next friday i don't need to write that down there's oh i can remember i thought you meant like it was for class like you would sit in class and be like i understand what you're you want us all write that down i'm not gonna write that down. I can remember that. I thought you meant like it was for class. Like you would sit in class and be like, I understand why you want us to all write that down.

I'm not going to write it down. I'm just going to store it right here. I don't know if it was much as like class note-taking. It was more like to-do list and stuff. Like no, challenge yourself to remember everything you need to get done. Oh, interesting. Like instead of relying on the paper to remind you, rely on your own memory.

It's a crutch. I think the idea of trying to train your memory kind of makes sense. But it's, I don't know. Helping your future memory is interesting. Then you have that third person in there again, all of a sudden, like, yeah, you're helping me out.

Thanks for helping. Yeah, no problem, man. You're welcome. Thank you. Seriously, I appreciate it. No, seriously. I don't really, yeah. I'd say 20% psycho.

I think there's a little psycho in there because it's like, I don't think there's any study that ever says, hey, logging things down is going to help or make you forget things. Yeah, I didn't read anything and think, oh, I'll follow that. It's just my own thoughts. Yeah. Really, Brett? 20 seconds? I have 20 seconds of psycho on next or sorry you can read some off too if you want um uh i don't care um janelle banyo my

psycho behavior is that i'll keep tabs open on my computer or phone as reminders to finish reading the article complete that test etc on my phone alone, I currently have... Have you read this, Tymon? No. Guess how many tabs she has open on her phone. Intentionally. 100? 121 tabs.

No way. I have a ton of tabs open because I don't ever close them. But I don't... I mean, on my phone. But not on purpose. 121? Yeah, phone tabs are never intentional they just computer tabs pop yes yes i'm not done with this video yes i'm still working on that email how many tabs you have open right now one two three four five six but these are the six i always have open for the podcast that's a facebook page we got yeah whatever i don't need to

describe them all but uh 121 on purpose is wild. Yeah, that's a little psycho. Like truly thinking I'm going to come back to these is psycho. Dude, yeah. Just in general, like Catherine will leave a message unread. And I'll like see like she has like two unread messages. I'm like, just out of curiosity, like check it out. You have to scroll, scroll.

I mean, four or five weeks down for this message. She's like, I, I, I leave it on red so that I can know to respond. I that's, I, I very much relate to that. For that long though. The length of time is that is pretty long. That's psycho. Yeah. Or just that's, that's, uh, not me, not psycho. It's just, just not understanding that that's not working. Your system doesn't work. Just like Janelle was like, yeah, I'll keep it up though, and that's going to make me read it.

I have a good system, so I never forget to do anything or never let it slip away from me. I just keep tabs open on my phone. I have 121 right now. Yeah. Like I understand, like keep seven tabs open if you're a tab person on your phone, and then every single night go back and read them. And if you don't read them or if you decide that's fine get them out of there yep but

121 janelle you have one on there that you've had on there for three months look yourself in the mirror say janelle you don't really want to read that that bad or you would have read it by now now slowly open your eyes say 40 more times yeah great now do it 40 more times. I got a real psycho one for you. Emma Everson says, my psycho behavior is that I will unload and reload the dirty dishes in the dishwasher if they weren't organized according to my standard. Oh, wow.

How? Sum's up. Sum's up, Emma. The only possible way to justify that is if they're all stuck together and won't get washed. That's what I was going to say. There are caveats. Because Catherine sometimes, way to justify that is if it's like they're all like stuck together and like won't get washed that's what i was gonna say they're oh it's like more practical because katherine sometimes that's talk about a life hack for a husband just throw them in there and then she'll figure it out

i i i i try but at the same you just gotta try that's the at the end of the day like i'm like i'm pretty sure that's the best place for that bowl to go up here but like if it's not catholic move it like she'll she'll figure it out um yeah it depends if it's cosmetic or if it's like pragmatic if it's cosmetic you're a psycho it's like that's not that's not the uh you know plate lagoon over there that's oh yeah i want all the plates facing the same way i want the pinks by the whites notice you put the spoons in the fork tray. No, I like to go from left to right spoon fork knives. Call it Spoon Lagoon. I'm really into Lagoon motif.

Lagoon. It's a lot of Lagoon stuff. Yeah. My favorite ghostie is Audrey Lagoon. Can I read you one from my dad? Please. Have you seen it yet? This is great.

My psycho behavior might be bad, but at least I don't eat soup with a fork. I count all my steps, no matter where I'm going. I try to guess how many steps it will take me to get to my destination. The mailbox is 84 steps. That is a straight line. If I take the driveway, it's 122.

I feel like people are going to relate really well with that one. I'm almost positive. I've said this before on the podcast that I do this. I was going to say, that sounds like your dad. When I read this, I was like people are going to relate really well with that one. I'm almost positive. I've said this before on the podcast that I do this. I was going to say, that sounds like your dad. So when I read this, I was like, how? That's crazy that that's genetic.

I mean, I'm not surprised. I mean, that's how genes work. Things get passed down to you. But it's crazy. Even to the minute detail of like we have these weird like internal quirks that no one would ever know. How does that get passed down? So you do – we've talked about this with stairs. Stairs.

But stairs are fine. I mean, not finite. I guess they can be really long or whatever, but like usually stairs are anywhere from 12 to 14 max. 84 steps. Eventually, like after like 26, 34, I'm like, I'm done counting. Like to count 122 is like next level. And I wonder, I need to talk to my dad.

I bet he plays the same games with himself because I used to do this all the time in college. I'm leaving Landon Hall. I got to go all the way to the Jester Center. Yeah. Which I'm saying that out loud. I think for the first time realizing that sounds like a circus.

I never thought about that. The Jester Center. The Jester Library. But I would try to guess how many steps it would take me. Like, all right, can I get there? And like, I would try to do 600 steps. Really? And then if someone would try to talk to me,

like, ah, not today buster i'm trying to i'm trying to count my steps that's that's when you turn into a psycho uh lock it in just a second hold on real quick 196 396 just remember just remember four four four hundred four four four four four four four four four four four four four four 396. Just remember, four for 400. Four for 400. Four for 400. Four for 400. Okay. Yo, what's up? Are you running late? I can walk with you. No way.

What do you need? Beat it. Have you had the Sprite from a glass in the cafeteria? May I suggest the Sprite from a glass and don't create any social media accounts? I mean, I can understand, like,

I can resonate with the idea of like, hey, if I go straight line versus if I take the driveway, I want to see how much difference it is. But to me, it's more about time than it is steps. I would like to – You'd rather time it? I like taking different routes to church and being like – because Catherine would be like, I don't know. I wonder if 435 is closer.

And I'm like, well, let's just try. Let's test it. Let's have constant speed. Don't go over the speed limit and let's just see who wins kind of thing. You know, like that is interesting to me, but to, but, but for me to be like one second, two seconds, three seconds, like that to me, like that, that's when it gets craziest. Cause then all of a sudden you're counting thousands of seconds. I've done the time thing too. I think it would have been the Aletha house when I was living there. And I would,

there was like multiple ways to get home from a certain place I was going. And it was like, Google Maps has the same amount of time, but I'm convinced. Was it Trace? I don't even remember now. I can't remember if it was like a girl I was dating and it was like,

because I remember I was like, this needs to be like a standardized test. We need to have like, as a few independent variables as possible yeah so i would only test it out if it was like there was no traffic like traffic was not yeah a part of i truly wanted to know which exit gets me there faster and so i feel like every time i went to trays out like the content house yeah they took the google maps gave me a different way of getting there so i'm like it's it's real close these different routes coming 169 6 this house, it could give you, I think, four different options on the way back.

It's kind of fun. It's wild. Yeah. You go Shawnee Drive. You go Johnson Drive. You go 635. You stay on 35. Right.

Fun. I know. It's very interesting. Are you guys enjoying this? You don't live in Kansas City? Anyway, I thought that was wild that my dad does the same thing. That is great. Steve, you're a psycho.

You're a psycho. Just to say. What did the replies say? Just talking about different people who all do the same thing. Yeah, I do increments of seven. I try to end every step with my right foot, said Tamey Mason. My dad said, I actually try to end every step on my left foot. But I thought that sounded a little weird.

Yeah, we all do stuff like that. When I was younger, I would try to think like, oh my goodness, have I taken an even or odd number of steps in my life and i would freak out about i was like i can't know i was like i can't know i can't i need to know so i can take like end it in it with an even number when i walk you know i don't know i would think about that i haven't in a while but now i probably will yeah you just unlocked it again yeah mine is similar to that maybe i've talked about some pockets but for me there's always a balance in my head of left and right. It's like a,

it's a, like an Egyptian scale. Yeah. And so what it is, it's like, for whatever reason, I just feel right heavy. So the next several cracks that I step over need to be stepped over with my

left foot to even out. Yes. I relate so much to that. It's just, there's always a balance, but it's, it's like not nearly as much like anymore though. I think it was a lot when I was like,

probably like eight or nine. Gotcha. A lot of that. Like, yeah, just like I need to take one more step on this section of like wood floor. Because wood is worth more than the concrete. One more step with my left and my right to like balance it out. Just weird stuff. Interesting.

The weight or the, what do you call it? Imbalance or whatever. That's interesting. I haven't heard that. Yeah. All right. Let's see. I haven't read these. So if there's some that you think are better than others, Jake. How do stop losses work on Kraken? Let's say I have a birthday party on Wednesday night, but an important meeting Thursday morning.

This one's good. And a couple people, Janelle Buniel also agreed, which is wild. Catherine Yoder said, I'm not sure if this is psycho behavior or not. Newsflash, it is. There was a couple years stretch of time where I started eating and writing with my left hand, even though I'm right-handed, in case I ever lost my right hand.

Janelle Mignol said, I went through this stage too. I would brush my teeth, etc. with my left hand to prepare if I broke my right arm. This is doomsday. I would buy a lot of toilet paper. I made a bunker and I would use my left hand.

I related to the first part. I learned how to write. I tried my one class, chemistry, in high school. I was like, I'm only going to write with my right hand for notes. Just chemistry? Yeah. Just like it's slow enough. It's not enough notes where I have to like.

It's just numbers. Yeah, it's not crazy so uh just thinking like how fun would it be not just in case someone you know pummels my hand with a hammer or something chipper gets a hold of me that's what really like just in case i ever lost my right hand oh my gosh that is so funny to me at the same time though it reminds me of the memory thing like not writing things it kind of reminds me of like that thing it seems like something you might have gone it's not scientifically backed at all or like you should never like prepare for it but it's like i'm gonna help myself out yeah a little bit like like how often does that happen i mean yeah my high school basketball coach would always encourage us to like go home eat cereal with your left hand brush your teeth with your left hand.

I don't know if he had any data to back that up, but I was like, yeah, it probably would help. But yeah, muscle memory. Yeah. But,

and that, that, that to me, like what, like I said, I don't think that's crazy to think like, Hey, it'd be better if in basketball you could use both your hands pretty well.

Yeah. But it's crazy to think, Hey, you should practice your left hand layups in case you break your right hand and you still want to play basketball. And you're still out there doing it. That's when it gets a little bit like, I think there's probably,

like how many people do we know that have broken their hands? Just Isaac. Just like, yeah, a handful of the thousands of people that we've met in our lives probably. Psycho. Fun fact,

that was in southwest missouri one of those lady uh jackie styles oh yeah caitlin clark recently passed her an all-time scoring list so she uh famous story in high school broke her right hand kept playing still averaged like 25 points a game with her left hand really she's that good doesn't that's pretty cool there's a story with that with like larry bird where he just is shooting left-handed all night yeah that's right i forget the full story but i've heard something like that too. He's like trash talking. Somebody's like I can do it. My left. I'll beat you left-handed. Yeah, something like that. Yeah, Larry

the last good white American basketball player. I thought you're just gonna stop it. Good last good white basketball. Oh, no, there's some incredible white basketball players out there, but they're all foreign. I thought you're gonna say just white American the last good white one the last good white guy in America.

Can we think about that for five seconds? Yeah, yeah. Last good white guy. I mean, Jason Williams was fun. Was he that good? Keith Van Horn did all right. I like Luka. Nick Collison.

Oh, he's not American. Yeah, no, that's what I'm saying. Idiot. We got Luka. We got Jokic. We got Dirk Nowitzki. Manu Ginobili. Those guys are great. None of them are American. that's what i'm saying we got luca we got yokich we got dirk novitsky manu genoble like those guys are great none of them are american i see what you're saying austin reeves is that our is that who we're hanging our hat on these days austin reeves uh alex caruso you know yeah jj reddick is jj reddick i mean he's our white

knight literally yeah that's. That's good. That's a good list right there. Yeah. That's a good list. Oh, who's that? Grady Dick. Grady Dick is just fine. Who's the guy who, I think he's from Kansas City.

Isaac used to play. Christian Brown. Yeah. Yeah, but Larry Bird or Christian Brown. Okay. You know? I'm just naming white guys. Those guys are in the NBA.

Yeah, they're good. But they're not legends. Brad, you're going to like this one. All right. It's from Melissa. Whoa, what's this last name? Duckwitz. D-U-K, and then the word quits.

I'm calling it the quits. I'm retiring. I'm calling it the quits. I'm calling it the quits, man. Duckwitz, yeah. I've been here 60 years. I've done my time. I'm calling to quits. I'm calling to quits, man. Duck quits. I've been here 60 years. I've done my time. I'm calling it the quits. I'm calling the quits. She said, not sure if this categorizes a psycho, but I work from home and sometimes have to pep talk myself out loud to stay on task. Today, I sat down with my robe on and a peanut butter spoon in my hand and said, let's get this bread to myself.

And it's all caps. So she might have screamed it. I don't know if it's psycho. That's weird. People are so, everyone's weird. That's the fun thing. I keep it inside though. I don't let it get out of my mouth.

I don't know if I've ever done that. That's pretty good. Little robe and a peanut butter spoon. All right. right well it's that time of year yeah gotta do audits let's get this bread all right she like puts the peanut butter in let's get that bread she sounds like she's got dentures in or something i would like to know madison mccall a poll master uh will you just make a poll that just says like, do you talk out loud to yourself ever? Or maybe it's a, maybe it's a little more extreme than that. Like I talk out loud to myself once a week, once a day, you know, never. Yeah. Never. Cause I probably say something out loud to myself every day. Maybe just out of like reaction or

something like, just like, Oh, let's go. You know, something like that. I don't know. I don't know if I say let's get this bread. Let's get this bread. But sometimes I'm like, like, oh, let's go. You know, something like that. I don't know. I don't know if I say let's get this bread. Let's get this bread. But sometimes I'm like, like I'll like find myself parked like on my phone scrolling, ready to like go do the next thing. And I'm just like, just spending like wasting time. And I'll just be like, come on, Brad. And I'll get out of the car.

But I feel like that's more normal than people admit externally. How much do you talk out loud to yourself, Tymon? Not much at all. Are you ever even by yourself? Family of 19, you know, like, I don't have any time. I mean... Yeah, he's driving with himself. Yeah, I'd say pretty much never.

What if we found out Tymon, you know, perfect every way, but has just crazy road rage? Yeah, he only cusses when he drives. Tymon, get that bleep button rage. Yeah, he only cusses when he drives. Time to get that bleep button ready. Yeah, whatever. I think the only time something ever leaves my mouth when I'm by myself is if something were to happen suddenly.

Like I drop something. Oh! Whoops. It's just a noise? Yeah. On the way here, I experienced someone get rear-ended in traffic.

Oh, wow. I just heard a classic screech, crash. I was like, whoa. But I didn't say anything. I think I just looked over like, I just observed. I don't think I made a single noise. I'm sure if I watched back footage of myself, I was probably like, I don't think I made a noise or anything.

Really? Yeah, I would have been like, oh, wow. Maybe that's psycho. I don't know. I know. That's what I'm saying. We need to take a poll to see if one side is almost more psycho than the other.

We should take a poll. Would you have made a noise at a rear ending? Madison, just make like 15 polls. Every day, a new poll. I like this. Let's keep going. Psych, just make like 15 pulls. Every day a new pull. I like this. Let's keep going. Say your psycho. I like this one.

All right. My psycho behavior Who's this? is I actually want to tell you afterwards. Okay. Because, okay. No, no, that's great. I'll trust you. My psycho behavior is

I count down from 10 in my head while doing tasks and challenge myself to get things done in a certain amount of intervals of counting back from 10. For example, seeing if I get all my laundry done, sorry, if I can get all my laundry from the washer to the dryer in less time than it takes me to count back from 10, two times, parentheses, 20 seconds. Oh, okay. I've been doing this. It does very little. Here's what I'll say real quick. I don't think what you're doing is psycho but this woman's name is psycho oh really sinova asselstein oh asselstein did you marry into that

or are you trying to get out of that that's uh she's canadian sinova smith take you big asselstein. I just said you. Huge Asselstein. Sanova Asselstein. I mean, there's no other way to pronounce it, I don't think. Asselstein. Asselstein. Asselstein.

That's funny. Okay. I do stuff like this all the time. I don't like the independent variable of you making up your own seconds, though, Sonova. Exactly. It's got to be a microwave. Yes. I do it on the microwave.

It's amazing what you can do in 30 seconds. It's amazing how much I'll push 30 seconds in the microwave, go back in the kitchen, just be like, I'll just clean up until the microwave's done. I clean up the whole kitchen. 30 seconds. It's amazing. But yeah, I mean, that sounds like more like when you're a little kid and you're playing basketball in the driveway, you're counting down from 10, and then you miss the shot,

and you're like, oh, three, two, one and a half, one and one quarter. And you're like going to slow-mo. Make it in, you know? Yeah, you can alter it if you know you're not going to slum oh make it in you know yeah you can alter it if you know you're not going to make it yeah you're like I'm pretty close I'm going to get those last few socks one three quarter half second one quarter

zero so I've talked about it before on the podcast I love playing games with myself stuff like this something I will do. I like to, you know, at a certain point, just kind of 10 seconds doesn't do it enough for me. We got to step it up a notch. So maybe I'm across the room

and I'm going to try to throw both socks into the laundry hamper. Now we're talking. And I will say like, all right, just pretend someone said, if you get both of them, you get a million dollars. And if you don't, your you get both of them, you get a million dollars. Yeah. And if you don't, your whole family dies.

Oh, wow. You, you do negative as well. And then I will try to like focus and like make sure I make both of them. It is amazing. Like if you, I do the same thing sometimes I'm like, Hey, like, like I'll be like trying to grab something in between my seat. You have to get it next time. Yes, dude. Like my, like I'll be in the car and like my phone drops in between my seat and the, you know, center console and I've grabbed at it seven times. And I, then I finally just go,

you have to get it this time. Exactly. Focus. And I will get it almost every time on that focused time. It's there, there's a, there's something there. We need to, that's our Ted talk. Yeah. Possibility mindset. Possibility mindset. Yeah. So I love, I love playing games. I also in the wood shop a lot when I can't find something, I count to 10. I've, I didn't realize that was a behavior until recently where I do it anywhere else in my life by myself too.

I'll count to 10 in my head. Cause I don't worry about it until I get to 10. And then I'm like, I guess I really can't find this thing. You know, like I'll count to 10 and I'll be looking around the whole time. And then after 10, I get frustrated, but I give myself 10 seconds to be chill about it. So that's Sanova. This one says my psycho behavior is that, uh, I don't drink

main street roasters. What? That is psychotic. The name here is, um, way too many ghosties. Oh, my psycho behavior is I spend way too much on other coffee brands besides Main Street Roasters. Or go out for coffee when you can buy it from Main Street Roasters at MainStreetRoasters.com. This one says, my psycho behavior is I don't follow Main Street Roasters on Instagram. I don't follow them on Facebook, and I've never even been to their website which is major roasters.com yeah my psycho behavior is that sorry internet just went out yeah i don't like the smell of wonderful freshly ground beans in the morning this one says my psycho behavior says for some weird reason i've never once thought to support a family-oriented company that promotes and supports Christian values while also selling amazing coffee. Yeah, my psycho behavior is I don't like

families that are good people. I just don't like those people. This one says, my psycho behavior is that I've never once supported the loyal coffee company that always supports my favorite podcast. That is psycho. This one just says, my psycho behavior is I eat everything with a spoon. ever once supported uh the loyal coffee company that always supports my favorite podcast that is

psycho this one just says my cycle behavior is i eat everything with a spoon this one says i i i will go out of my way to try and take main street roasters to the ground whoa that is that is psycho you should not do that. There's another one about spoon. Yeah. Spoon that works. Okay. This one says, this one says,

I walk down to the end of my driveway, which is 88 steps without holding a cup of Main Street Roasters in my hand. This one says, I have 250 tabs open on my phone and they're all MainStreetRoasters.com. But I've never ordered using GRKC for 10%

off. Don't be a psycho. Order Main Street Roasters today. That's a fun ad. That's a fun ad. Haley got really I love the psycho thing, man. Sainter psycho

is fun. Yeah, this can we do a couple more? Yeah. Come on, Dad. I could do a whole episode of this, man. Time and I want to do a couple more. Please, Dad. All right. Ryan Guy. If you see Ryan Guy comment, you know it's going to be funny.

What's best is this time he's not even trying to be funny. 100 seconds at a time. A great behavior. He said, my second behavior is when I was in high school and college. If I ever went to a movie, I really wanted to see by myself. I was so self-conscious about being alone that while I was in line, I would have a fake phone conversation to no one telling my friend to hurry up or they were going to miss the start of the movie.

Ryan, that's amazing. Because he's assuming like people are going to watch him in line and be like, okay, you got one for Spider-Man 2? Okay, we'll see. Oh, interesting. I don't see your friend anywhere. I'm going to follow you in here. See if you're one of those guys.

Is that embarrassing to see a movie by yourself? Also, like how many times, I bet I've been in a movie with a friend of mine, 30 times in my life had no idea they were there because you don't peruse around the theater. Yeah. You're not like who's here tonight. Chad's here. Hey Chad, how you doing? How's your mom? Larry Bird. Larry Bird. Living legend. Good for you. Um, that's hilarious. Psych. I say psycho. Yeah. Psycho. That's a good one. Sounds like he's grown out of it or he just goes to the movies with his wife now. I don't know.

At least he's not like buying two tickets or anything like that. That's true. He's not fiscally responsible. I think going to the movie by yourself sounds, and maybe it's just my stage of life, like one of the greatest things in the entire world. Yeah.

That sounds just fine. You know the only part that's not fun? Previews. Don't get to talk to people like, you like it and didn't like it? You can find a stranger. Excuse me! Or I'll just text.

I'll live tweet the previews. Let them watch. Let them watch. Yeah, you just live stream it? Uh-huh. I'm just doing the previews. It's not bootlegging. Just let them watch.

I'm not going to save the live video, so it's fine. It's fine. Yeah video I'll just discard it we have good fans yeah that's funny dude I think this is the last one Morgan Sullivan this is interesting

I count the letters of each word I say not all the time but more often than I like to admit I try to make the sentences I'm saying in an even number of letters. I'll replay sentences in my head and change words to make them even. I tried to explain this to my husband once,

and he just stared at me like I was crazy. It's never silent in my mind, always at least counting something. This girl's a savant. This is macro. This takes the cake. This is the... This takes the cake. How many letters is that? Real quick.

This, two, five, eight, 11, 15. Why'd you go from two? Yeah, I did a little odd there. Dude, psycho. I would... You started with two? Where did two come from? This takes the cake.

Oh, I thought it was it takes the cake. Oh, okay. I was going to say, what in the world are you... How are you dividing this thing up. Oh, I thought it was it takes the cake. Oh, okay. I was gonna say what in the world are you? How are you dividing this thing up? Yeah, I don't know. Like that alone, this takes the cake is a very easy sentence and it still... I got it wrong. I don't understand how she's not like after every sentence

like one second, one second. Okay, 24. Sorry. Go on. Yeah. That one was good. What other skills does this girl have? Because if you can do that, you can do a lot. If you can do that in real time? Yeah. That's awesome.

That's Rain Man right there. Yeah, that's like, you know, you drop the toothpicks. But just use it for something that is useful. Yeah. How can we hire you? How can you help us do... Count blackjack. Right?

There you go. Surely. Yeah, not even counting cards, but just... Well, yeah, counting every single but just well yeah counting every single card like memorizing every single card sounds like you can add things up really quickly one way or the other yeah yeah that's insane man trying to see what else she's posted oh here we go january 12th i'm trying to order some mates your roasters and use the discount code but it isn't working what am i doing wrong she She's putting GRKC5.

She's putting an odd number there. She is a savant. She can only do one thing really well, and it's count letters. She can't do anything else. Oh, my goodness. That's fun, man. I like these a lot.

It's fun to see people's quirks. I still can't get over the fork or soup with the fork thing. You have to be selective on your soup. You have to be eating chili or something. You're not eating a brothy soup with forks. It's impossible. The fork must have a basin to it or something. Yeah, it's like that one, honestly, the original post by Chris and then also this Morgan one.

I'm going to say I don't buy it. There's no way. That's just too crazy. The Morgan one is very hard to buy. Like Morgan, you gotta expand on it. Like how often do you do this? Is this a once a day thing? Can we call you and like quiz you on this? Yeah. Like, or does every single conversation you have take five hours? Yeah. How do you do socially? Genuinely. Were you on, on never mind love on the spectrum anyway that's fun man sane or psycho sane or psych yeah i could do that every week i enjoyed that a lot that is fun um real quick speaking of love on the spectrum finished it great season two

was awesome and i've really i'm like inspired to live more like these people i'm like treating other people as if i'm like someone on the spectrum on the show and how they like i told an old lady that i liked her sweatshirt yeah and i've just i've just been way more outgoing and polite to strangers love it and more encouraging so it's a great show it makes you a better person that's what i've always like anytime Anytime Catherine will say like, oh, I love that girl's shoes. I go, you should tell her that. Tell her. Why not?

Like, it's not weird. Yeah. It's a nice thing to tell somebody. Yeah. Good. That's great. So are you going to watch season one now? You're going to do that?

Yeah, probably. In Iowa this weekend, I started watching the Australia version. Everybody fell asleep and I was still awake. So I started watching that one. Yeah. I saw a lot of comments about like, oh, yeah, they have a UK. So did you watch the American version? I watched season two of the American version.

That's it so far. Gotcha. First two episodes of Australia. And do they have a British one? I haven't seen that. Okay, maybe I read something wrong. So yeah, you got some more to watch. Is it just season one and two for American so far?

Yes. Okay, fun. I also want to give a shout out. Speaking of watching things, I forget his name now. Shoot. But there was a dude who posted in the Ghostverse facebook group and maybe still has post he's like i should have said this like a week or so ago but it's even better now he was like i have been watching everything that jake watches at the same time as him he's like i watched shrek and then i

watched ted lasso and then i watched something else and then i watched suits and now i'm watching love on the spectrum kyle roars is his name okay yeah and so he said shrek ted lasso suits in love on the spectrum okay gotcha yeah i was just like that is so cool i love quits and it's just like that and pumped to see what's next for us so um i'm kind of nervous to ruin the streak. I don't know what's next. You watch a few other shows besides those. It doesn't have to be 100%. Just watch a lot of shows, Kyle. You'll hit on a few of them. Lover, Stalker, Killer.

Did you watch that one, Kyle? Pretty good. What is that about? It's a documentary. Actually, really good. You should watch it. It's impressive. Any type of documentary.

The story itself is really, really good. The documentary is watch it it's impressive you know you have a documentary like the story itself is really really good the documentary is at least gonna be decent yeah it's like the true events that happened are wild yeah you're in for it you're not gonna screw that documentary up too much yeah actually i knew i was in for a treat because in the first like two minutes they introduced like the main dude character and just very quickly they're just like yeah so he met his wife in high school and and then they just kind of dated for a little bit, and then ended up getting married and had a couple kids. And now he, that was 10 years ago. It's like, okay, how quickly they breeze through that means we're in for a treat. If they didn't even get into the initial backstory of his love affairs, then yeah, we're in for it. They have plenty more to talk about.

Yeah, it's a good sign. Gotcha. That's great. Oh, one other thing. Sorry, just one after. Speaking of that, it was his last Wednesday night, I think. I'm out to a little post-Pickleball dinner at Chick-fil-A with me, Isaac, new friend Joe.

Yep. Talked about him on the podcast. Remember that infamous segment where I had just met a friend named Joe? Oh, yeah. And also new friend Aaron, who's moved to Kansas City as well. And I think we were actually talking about

Lover, Stalker, Killer. And one of them, I think it was either Joe or Aaron, one of them was like, oh, yeah, A.J. Hawk is in that, right? I was like, like the Packers linebacker? He's like, yeah, he's in that, isn't he? I was like, like the Packers linebacker. He's like, yeah,

he's in that, isn't he? I was like, no, it's like a documentary. He's like, yeah, yeah,

he's, yeah, yeah, yeah. He's like in that. He's, I mean, he hunts down his prey.

And I just really cracked me up. The idea of just like every documentary, just like, oh yeah, who is that in? Like, cause I know they did the OJ documentary. Okay.

You watched making a murder. Louis killed a guy too. Okay, you watched Making a Murderer. Ray Lewis killed a guy, too. You just think there's got to be a pro athlete in every documentary. Right, right. Who's in that? Draymond Green's in that one? Is he? Is Draymond in that one, or is that Clay Thompson?

No, it's Draymond. It's Draymond. And so anyway, we're giving him such a hard time. It's a true crime documentary. Yeah, it's about this female stalker. Like, yes, she loved two things, her ex-boyfriend and A.J. Hawk. He's a pretty big part of the show. So what did he get confused with?

Come to find out, he wasn't totally wrong. You give him a hard time and then he's actually like, great. Yeah, he was actually right. So there's a part, this isn't spoiled too much, but they find the stalker's hard drive. And very quickly on the show, as they're scrolling through it, they found her hard drive. She had a couple pictures of Packers memorabilia. She lived up north and was a Packers fan.

So there was a football card of A.J. Hawk or something. So it's funny. A.J. Hawk was in there. Yeah, he's not in the documentary. I mean, I guess literally he's in the documentary, but he's not being interviewed or anything. Yeah, taking the most minute detail of something. You ever watch Castaway? Oh, great volleyball movie.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. If you like sports, you'll love Castaway. Yeah, you're going to just go bananas for Castaway. What, Rain Man? What does he count in Rain Man? Counts the toothpicks on the ground. Oh, you love Rain Man? Oh, great dental hygiene movie, dude Counts the toothpicks on the ground. Oh, you love... Rain Man. Oh, great dental hygiene movie, dude,

about those toothpicks. It's about Kmart and Judge Wapner. Yeah. Oh, man. School of Rock, dude. Great movie. Awesome watching it. Great movie.

I got a haircut. Show it to everybody. Great movie. I got a haircut. Show everybody the sides. Yeah. Thanks. Yeah. You were like, great clips. No more.

That was recently that you went to great clips, right? Yeah, yeah, it was. I don't even know if I was totally due,

but we were driving back from Iowa Sunday night and I was like, my hair feels like really long in the back. Let's get a haircut. I was like, my hair feels like really long in the back. Let's get a haircut. I was like, Rachel, here's my phone. Book me somewhere nice.

It's time. And she booked me at Scissors and Scotch. Okay. You ever been here? That's where Zach goes. Okay. I've never been there. I've always thought that's a terrible name because Scissors and scotch literally could mean two different things

very easily it could mean that they're hair cutting your hair and giving you bourbon or it could be like a hobby lobby kind of place that gets you scissors and and scotch tape like a craft store that's a good point anyway so i literally until you said scissors and scotch it's a haircut place i've always been curious I don't know for sure that's a haircut place. Okay. So scissors and scotch. Two main things that came out of this. You love scotch now.

One, I needed help. I needed like an ambassador there to help me through this conversation I had with the woman cutting my hair. So I'm sure there, obviously there obviously things I've forgotten since my haircut, and there's probably different nuances of context that I'm forgetting. But I do have some things that I know with certainty that happened. Okay. And I want you to help me figure out.

The topic is my hairdressers, hair cutters. What was it? My salonist. Hairdresser sounds good. Hairdresser? Yeah. I was like, well, she's cutting it. Is she dressing it? She's doing both amelia bedelia dress dress the chicken this is

with my hairdressers sexuality preferences okay now i didn't get into it asking about this but here here are the facts okay she's a nelly she's an ellie fan that's right uh pretty early on she says that uh she homeschools i was like oh that's cool like um you know are you part of a co-op like who's doing the homeschooling like today's yeah you know whatever you know the questions ask i do thank you guys for helping me out there and she said oh you know i uh my girlfriend used to used to teach, and now she no longer teaches, and so she homeschools and has a part-time job as well. Like, okay, great, got it. I know that

women often use the term girlfriend as just a friend. But this felt like, she said my girlfriend, not like one of my girlfriends. It felt like my girlfriend. And it's like, yeah, it is her girlfriend, and she is homeschooling. So far, without seeing what this woman looks like, that's totally normal to say my girlfriend and it's like yeah it is her girlfriend and she is homeschooling so far without seeing what this woman looks like that's totally normal to say my girlfriend okay for just a friend you're going hey we played saint or psycho let's play straight or psycho

no i'm just kidding that's okay um straighter straighter crooked crooked um i was trying to think of a fun name i don't know i can't think of anything um timon gay timon raises his hand time oh go ahead whatever okay so so far you're saying straight yeah okay next piece of evidence okay she said uh i think we were talking travel or something she'd also been to australia she's like i remember you know the I think we were talking travel or something. She'd also been to Australia. She's like, I remember, you know, the last time we were in Australia was when I found out that I was pregnant, which came as a bit of a surprise. So for me, I went from not straight to like, oh, we're back to, we get surprised pregnancy. Yes. I'm back to straight. Correct.

Which I wish you could have seen inside of my sheltered little brain. I was spinning. I was like, oh man, girlfriend surprise pregnancy. How does reproduction work? Maybe I don't totally have it down. I'm still kind of new at this. I've never been successful.

Yeah. Okay. So also I want to go back real quick. I could be wrong, I want to go back real quick. I could be wrong, but I doubt if she has kids with somebody, and she is whatever, she would call them her girlfriend. They would say my partner. Glad you brought that up, Brad. Okay.

Because we're not done. Okay. And this is also why I needed someone. I needed you. I needed Rachel. I needed someone in my ear to help me navigate. Not that it was hard. Not that I was asking questions about whatever.

Okay. But next piece of evidence, she says, we're talking about something. It doesn't matter. She's like, oh, yeah. My husband likes motorcycles. I'm like, oh, okay. We're in. There we have it. Ding, ding, ding.

Okay. The girlfriend was just a friend the whole time. Scissoring and scotch was just what they do to your hair. Oh my gosh. Okay. Jeez. We do have a fourth thing though. Then, so the word husband has been established.

We've heard the words girlfriend, pregnancy, husband. Yeah. She calls her husband her husband. But then the fourth thing she says, you know, I've got a She calls her husband her husband. But then the fourth thing, she says, you know, I've got a... That's a good point. I need to tell my partner about that. We're not saying husband now?

What was the context of... I don't remember. This is the thing. I can't remember everything, but I know that... It was a relational thing, not like a business thing. Oh, yeah, for sure. It was like, I'll have to... Okay. I'll have to take my partner there and you know some people do refer to their husband and wife as partner like but i feel like it's more of like it's a full-time thing like they are my partner that's what they call them husband had

been established and then she went back to partner how long ago how long ago was the husband talk going like was it a recent thing or she could have, you know, gone baseball, softball kind of thing. Was it like a, like the timeline of the haircut or the timeline of her life? No, no, no.

When, when she referenced her husband, was that a recent reference? Yeah. It seemed like the husband's present day. Okay. It seemed like the partner's also present day. Okay.

Okay. So that's all we got. True crime on our hands. We're done. Yeah. Sorry. That was it. Sorry. I didn't ever got to the bottom of it well yeah i didn't want to like embarrass myself and ask the wrong question yeah what question could you have asked next because it didn't really matter it was just like hey well this is one of those things because i podcast three times a week yeah i'll mention this yeah didn't really affect my life much but yeah it was just kind of funny. Because it was a 45-minute long haircut.

So it's just a lot of just... Really? Wow. Did they do some special... Like wash your hair or something? They did wash my hair. Okay. Yeah.

I denied the hot towel. Really? Oh, Zach says the hot towel's nice. It's so hot, though. Oh, yeah. You don't like the hot. That's right. They only leave this much space for your nice. It's so hot, though. Oh, yeah. You don't like the hot. That's right. They only leave this much space for your nose.

It's so hard to breathe when your face is like... Really? You got to breathe in and out of your nose? I don't like that. You think that the hot towel would make it easier to breathe through your nose right there? That sounds luxurious, dude. This is like Monday morning, too. It was like 65 degrees outside.

It just wasn't a hot towel weather. It wasn't a hot towel day. Yeah, it was like if they offered me free chili, I would have also said no. Well, do you have a fork? I don't know. I don't know. Other thing about the haircut?

Yep. So it's $50. It's double what I spend at Great Cliffs. Will you just give my guy a chance? I will say, hey, zach highly recommends getting the subscription thing it's like 30 um like 30 like a month maybe okay and he goes like every two weeks no way whoa there's no way that those numbers are accurate devin henderson's paying them well yeah we just looked up something like this the other day yeah we were looking up a gents place in leawood yeah

and they had a subscription but it came with like, you can conduct meetings here. You can like have access to our like executive. I didn't see that. Sweet or something. That was what I saw on the Facebook ad. I couldn't find it on the website. What was weird about those numbers? Just way too low. Like the numbers that I saw for that gents place was like one haircut a month was like 40 bucks or something like that. Two a month was 75, you know, whatever. Okay. Well, Zach has some kind of thing where it's like, Zach, he's got the student discount. Could be, I don't know. They love students at scissors. All I know is I wanted to try it out and I'm not allowed. And my mom was like, nope,

I don't want you to, the environment doesn't sound good if it's scissors and scotch. And in their email, when I like gave them my email, they said a cuss word. So, oh, just bleep it out. Just say it. Spell it. They can't hear it. It was just like, are you ready for the, like the best haircut of your life? Oh, cool.

That's so cool. That's so cool. That's so cool. Rachel has such good taste in haircut places, dude. If I would have known that I would have never supported them. Yeah, really. Thanks for telling me now, Tymon. I should go with Zach sometime.

The environment is fine. He'd be your ambassador. Yeah, that's good. I have an AirPod in. Zach's out in the lobby. He's just not helping me at all. Yeah, he's in his own conversation. If you go up Monday at 10 10 a.m right when they open

pretty chill environment not a whole lot going on part of the 50 haircut though they have a bar there not your not your style timing not my style either you get a free drink monday at 10 a.m like what am i gonna do here were people drinking though no okay so this is the thing i get on my haircut she's like so you have that free drink and i was like oh all right you guys have like you make like a mocktail like yeah we do that so i i'm just sitting at the bar just like i don't i just felt weird like i'm the only guy at the bar you're bellied up to the bar yeah i'm just like up there i have a colada yeah what'd you get i got a like a paloma i don't even know what that is. It's just grapefruit juice, basically. It was amazing.

Just grapefruit and lime juice. Did you know to ask for that? They had a menu. Okay. I would have never. I've never heard of that. So yeah, bellied up to the bar, just sitting there with my drink, having a one-on-one conversation with a female bartender. And then that's when they get to search and all these people come in.

And I was like, no one recognized me. I don't know. Like, I just one of those instances where I would like, it's a mocktail. It's my first time here. You know, just like, I don't want it to seem like I hang out here and I drink here. It's Monday at 11 a.m. I did not like that feeling of like people coming in while I'm sitting at the bar. I had a nice conversation with the bartender.

It was really fun. Yeah. But I could see how people could get into that. But at the same time, like, I don't know. i don't know yeah not really where it's just like an interesting concept it is like on paper i'd be like oh i don't think that's gonna fly but it seems to work yeah yeah it seems to work like a third of the time like i feel like i see these businesses come up like there was one in olathe a long time ago and gentleman's haircuts is what it's called okay great name i think i know exactly what that is no scissors and scotch confusion there and i think it There was one in Olathe a long time ago. Gentleman's Haircuts is what it's called. Okay. Great name.

I think I know exactly what that is. No scissors and scotch confusion there. And I think it lasted like six months. And I remember thinking, that's a crazy amount to spend on a haircut. And 50 bucks, by the way, is not a crazy amount these days, unfortunately. It just feels like everything's getting more expensive.

But it's still high. Like it's still a lot. Because guys, we have to get our haircuts a lot. Like often once a month, once every two months, depending on who you are or whatever. So, but that's, so they have leather couches,

leather chair. That's the only thing. That's the only thing I imagine in those places really enjoying is just like a nice leather chair, overstuffed, oversized leather chair. Sit down. And I sat in four different chairs in my time there.

All nice, all leather. Okay. It was nice. I mean, this is like Prairie Village, Corinth Square, Scissor and Scotch. It was nice. Oh. I think that's what seems like appealing.

It's like a luxury experience. Yeah. That's like, that'd be kind of fun. And I kind of felt that way. Because she definitely probably could have cut my hair faster, but I think it's supposed to, they promise you a 45-minute haircut. Did they give like a little like massage-ish thing? I think Zach's mentioned to... They promise you a 45-minute haircut. Do they give a little massage-ish thing?

I think Zach's mentioned that. Maybe they're kind of like... Not like a massage gun, but I felt the fingers moving a little bit when she was shampooing my hair. Yeah, I think that was what I was thinking of. I got a wife for that. Dang it. No, I'm just kidding. Never has she ever. Court Square, right by Metty's.

Oh, okay. The one I'm thinking of is down Deer Creek Woods. 135th and... You want to talk to my dad Deer Creek Woods. Want to talk to my dad? Yeah. You want me to talk to my dad? What do you know? Say that. Yo! What's going on? What's going on? Brad and I are recording the podcast right now. What are you up to?

I am sorry. I will talk to you later. Have a great day. We were just talking about your steps to the mailbox. I do the same thing. I do that. I count everything. But I've also, I count how many laps it takes me to mow the yard.

Even though I've mowed that yard for 24 years. The front yard takes 32 laps. The circle drive takes six laps by the fence takes 10. And I, I still count them every time. And I try not to. Oh, yeah. I think I started when we were cutting hay as a kid, you know, I would try to guess, okay. And maybe 10 more laps will be happy. You know, I'll be at this point in the field just because I had no music.

I had nothing. You just sat on that tracker for 10 hours a day. Just count. I think I would just do it like, okay, I can make 10 more laps. See where I'm at in 10 laps. I don't know. Yeah, I used to do that with basketball conditioning. Remember that in middle school where they would just run us for three days to make people try and quit?

I would try and do the math of like we'd have to run those mountains, like one down and back, then three down and back, all the way to 11. And so I would try to do the math of like, all right, we're on our way up. We've done nine down and backs out of a total of 35. Let me try and figure out what that percentage is or something. Oh, yeah. And just get by that way. I think it helps me on the things I don't like to do. Like when I was running the log back a few years ago, and, you know, I'd think, okay, 210 more steps with my left foot should get me a quarter of a mile.

And so I could say, okay, I can do 210. Just start counting, you know. You're like Kevin in The Office. He's only a genius when it's food. It's like you're only like a math whiz if you're miserable. I would like to put that in the Olympics. Where they would just put you in a vacant field and say, how far is it to that telephone pole?

That's 62 steps right there, buddy. Easy. But the problem is I cheat. I cheat because if I say, oh, I bet I can make that in 18 steps, sometimes I'll start taking really small steps, and sometimes I'm doing the splits. Nobody cares. It's not like I'm being judged on if I made it in 18 steps why are you cheating yourself

just say okay no you know what it was 22 steps I missed it by 4 but no I will stretch out my legs as far as I can that's so great it's not fun being stupid yeah I need to get you some airpods or something you need something

in your life. I just finished your last podcast. Today's episode? Yep. Wow. I just finished it. It was great. Yeah.

I'll see when you're leaving town and all that. that does not matter okay i'll call you back later see you man all right see you steve love you man bye bye that was fun that's great that was my pa my pa that was my dad uh quick tangent yeah k Catherine told me the other day that she's kind of got the hots for Pa

from Little House on the Prairie. What did she say exactly? She just goes, I forget exactly what she said, but she just goes, Pa, and she kind of looked at me like, like not bad.

I was like, first of all, that guy's probably dead now. Yeah. And second of all, that guy looks nothing like me. It'd be one thing if it's like, okay, yeah, Chris Bartlett.

That guy looks nothing like Jack Black. Pa, huh? I don't know if I like Little House on the Prairie as much anymore. Pa. I think I've had some... Charles something. Charles Ingalls.

I've had some girl friends. Girl friends? Go ahead. Not partners? Yeah, homeschool girlfriends. Say that same thing. That's the most homeschooled thing. It's like, all right, guys.

Are we thinking? Yeah. Charles Ingalls is my first crush. He's a good-looking guy, no doubt about it. He is. She said that, and one time she told me Davy Crockett, too. I was like, chill out over here. Okay? These tall, chill out over here. Okay?

These tall, rugged men. Chill. I don't want to hear it. There was a short stage where Rachel was mentioning Harry Styles a lot. And I was like, well, he's extremely attractive and also pretty different than me as well. This is like a guy who wears dresses

and is 5'6". He's 5'6"? Something like that. I've heard he's very short. Really? I'm probably exaggerating. I don't know. He's short. Oh, I thought he was tall. That's crazy. I would have guessed tall. Google says 6'0". What? Well, it's Google. Let's

DuckDuckGo say. Hey, my bad. Are you thinking of Nial Horan? Nial Horan? Gotcha, Tymon. You got me. I was thinking of... I can't think of a famous dwarf's name.

Nial and Lewis are both 5'8". Harry's 5'11". Liam's 5'10". Zane's 5'9". Hey, my bad. Both hands up, my bad. So really, he looks just like you. So we're more similar than I thought.

Yeah. Tatted up, just like you. CozyEarth.com. I love them. We guys know about that. Yeah. Good sheets. Good sheets.

Great sheets. Good sheets. Slept in Iowa this past weekend. Sheets were. Yeah. Good sheets. Good sheets. Great sheets. Good sheets. Slept in Iowa this past weekend. Sheets were good. Decent sheets. But not cozy earth. Yeah. I'll tell you a difference.

Is Iowa sheets, you know, it's still winter. It's February. It's dry. I get in there and I see sparks under the covers. Oh, yeah. Cozy earth. You're not going to see any sparks. It's just like it's smooth. It's just, yeah, it is silky, but like in a breathable way that's hard to

describe until you experience it. Yeah. Technically, it is viscose from bamboo, but it does feel very satiny, very silky, just very nice and cozy and comfy. And they're closed the same way. I've been missing my my my Cozy Earth sheets recently because Catherine's been sleeping so poorly and been sick. And so I've been missing my Cozy Earth sheets recently because Catherine's been sleeping so poorly and been sick. And so I've been sleeping on the couch in our living room, but I've been sleeping head to toe in Cozy Earth. And so... You're still getting

it in. I'm still wearing my hooded sweatshirt and my pants. They're monochrome too. So I look like I'm like a rapper from the 90s. Every time I wake up, I'm like, guys, it's time to have some breakfast. It's going, you know, rocking cozy earth, looking just fine.

Or king. Hey, girlfriend. Tall, hairy. Styles. One of the very last things we did in Iowa while we were there is Rachel's niece, Lucy, daughter of Tommy and Corey. She has a little matching game. Similar to Hattie's. Memory kind of thing.

Yeah, memory matching. Now, Hattie and Bo's, theirs is, I mean, 60 pieces. Maybe more. 100 pieces. It's so many and it's all yeah go ahead and they're very tiny they're from 1991 i think yeah it's awesome very vintage yeah like they're they're swallowable probably like they didn't worry about it back then anyway go ahead and and that matching game you're trying to match a baby animal with the adult animal so you're not even really matching the same shape yeah it's, that'll throw you off the first time.

It's difficult for people like me. Lucy's matching game, there's only 20 of them. 20 total or 20, like 40? 20 total cards, so 10 matches, I guess. And you're matching just like the barn and the barn. It's very Iowa. Yeah. The silo and the silo.

Yeah. The horse and the horse. The lost trailer and the lost trailer. Firecracker shrimp and firecracker shrimp. The checkbook that just got ran over by a lawnmower and the checkbook that just got ran over by a lawnmower. The missing readers and the missing readers. So it's very easy.

But for whatever reason, we got play in this. Lucy's not there. This is just me, Rachel, her dad, her mom. We get play in this. And the camp counselor in me starts coming up with new versions to play it. Okay. And we got teams. Now we got speed.

At one point, I grabbed a blindfold, and you had a partner who's blindfolded, and they're trying to feel the pieces, and you're trying to tell them where to go. And Rachel had a good point. She said, we should do this in Gulf Shores. Go start his getaway game. Yes. Memory matching. Yes. Because we would do time trials.

That's great. And you know, one hour behind your back, how quickly can you turn? So it was a ton of fun. So I think in addition, last year we did a lot of puzzle racing. I think this year we can get some memory racing going. Memory racing would be another fun one that I would be bad at, but some people would be so good. Yes. Because what is the strategy

there? Rachel's amazing. How much of it is speed? How much of it is logic? You have to have a combination of both obviously. You probably need a system. You can't think too much. Just turn them over and go. Yeah. Interesting. I think there's a little luck too. Sometimes you just happen to like sheep, sheep. Oh my gosh, I didn't even know

sheep was there. Got lucky. Dude, Bo did that once. They were playing recently. Bo and Rachel. Like one of the first pulls of the game. He just pulled two random ones and he's like, I got it. And Rachel just started laughing. She's like, yeah, you did. Whoa.

I got it. I got it. Like he wasn't even like, he didn't understand how crazy it was that he did it. Oh, two pigs. Okay. Well, I'm a pig, baby pig. Okay.

Two horse. Okay. Baby horse. Yeah, big horse. Okay. Rachel was telling me the last time she played with Hattie, she had like, something got bumped or whatever. And she was like, oh, these horse. Okay. Rachel was telling me the last time she played with Hattie, she had like, something got bumped or whatever, and she was like, oh, these got mixed up.

And it just like mixed them all up. Yeah, like halfway through the game. Rachel's like, oh, well, there goes that. Like not understood. So yeah, sometimes Hattie will like consolidate them closer together. And I'm like, yeah, stop, stop, stop. That's the whole point of the game. Yeah.

All right, we've been playing a while let's mix them all up like alright we just started over let's shake it up so that's fun okay

yeah I was just talking to Brooks about Gulf Shores yesterday Brooks the chef yeah he's excited he wants to do a luau on the beach for Gulf Shores

Ghost running my one mile a day and almost fell off the treadmill from laughing so hard. That's so fun to think about. That is great. I love, I just love anytime anybody just says I laugh so hard that I distracted myself.

Yeah. X, Y, Z. So hot dog. Love the pod. Bye bye. That's fun. Thanks, CM Wilcox. My review from Jenna.

It's a five star review. It's titled We're Best Friends. Jake Brad Tymon. Five stars! Yes! I can't say enough great things about this podcast. The positivity is contagious. And I find myself looking forward to Mondays and Wednesdays now

like, who does that? Whether you know it or not, y'all are my best friends because we spend so much time together. I've been listening for a year and recently started from the beginning on YouTube. And I can't wait to learn more about you guys, even though it's really weird without timing. LOL.

Hope to meet y'all at some point in the future. Love you guys. Jenna and NC. Where's NC? NC is Northern Connecticut. Okay. Right? Yeah, hopefully we do some shows up there.

New Haven. Yeah. Is that even Connecticut? It is. Okay. Yeah. Guns waving. Gun It is. Okay. Yeah. Guns waving. Fun. Thank you for the five-star reviews.

Real quick, guess who just followed Backseat Boys podcast on Instagram? Jeff Bethke. Audrey Lagoon. Sanova Asselstown. Really? Yeah. That's amazing. Man, she's getting mentioned in this episode. That's fun for her.

That is great. Oh, you're great, mama. You're great, mama. Okay, I have an idea, and it might take us about six tries to figure it out, but I don't have a new jingle this week. Okay. Oh, ask me.

Brad, would you like to end this episode with a jingle? Okay, so I have an idea. It might take like six or seven tries, but I don't have a new jingle this week. But I was thinking, Tymon, have you heard this thing? It might take like six or seven tries, but I don't have a new jingle this week. But I was thinking, Tymon, have you heard this thing? Taylor Swift is this artist,

and she does something- He Googled it last week. He Googled popular songs. Popular songs. Is she related to Neil Heron? Neil, yeah, Heron. Okay. So she does these things where her producer or whatever was getting all the money,

and so she did her own Taylor's version is what she called it. Oh. And so I was thinking we could do some classic jingles where we could do Tymon's version. And Tymon and I sing it together. That sounds fun. But the trick is I didn't tell Tymon about this until right now. That's true. And so we got to find a song that you know well enough to do.

He's a pro. This is from Katie Bennett from January of 2022. When I told my friends and my mom and dad that I'm flying out to see Jake and Brad, they said, are you crazy? That sounds real strange. And I must admit that it's hard to explain. I think I'm fun, yet why is they think I'm gonna die? They just don't understand. You can't make friends online.

No matter what I say It's tricky to convey That I will be okay Yes, I will be okay Going to KC For some comedy It's gonna be just fine It's gonna be just fine

I won't be alone. You can track my boat. It's gonna be just fine. It's gonna be just fine. My dad said be cautious and don't get trafficked. I said that

sounds like an overreaction. I won't get kidnapped in Kansas City. It's just a trip, not a dateline mystery. They're not complete strangers, and I'm not in danger. Virtual friends is all we've talked on video calls. Though I'm a grown adult, their trust is only slight. That I will be all right. Yes, I will be all right. Going to KC for some comedy. It's gonna be just fine. It's gonna be just fine

It's gonna be just fine I won't be alone You can track my flow It's gonna be just fine It's gonna be just fine Let's sing Oh Oh

Oh It's gonna be just fine Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, Going to KC for some comedy It's gonna be just fine, it's gonna be just fine I won't be alone, you can track my phone It's gonna be just fine, it's gonna be just fine Yeah! Just by. Yeah. That was fun. I went live on Instagram during that.

Oh, fun. People are loving it. Guys, it was me the whole time. Oh, Jake. All right. Shout out Katie Bennett for the fun jingle. Shout out to Tymon for winging it with me baby i wasn't sure if there was an interlude there for the the instrumental for the bridge i don't know it didn't sound like i should go right into it so i didn't and then we just we just improvised baby that was

fun that was fun thanks katie bennett for writing that back in january of, two years ago. It's crazy. Got an Instagram live stream, top of the feed. She's releasing MVS? Oh, man. Shocker. Dang. Do you think we're... I don't know enough about any of that stuff. Does that mean we're truly releasing him

or is it one of those like we release him and then restructure or something? Oh, I don't know. Is that a thing that they can do? I don't know. Okay. Let's talk about it a little more on the podcast that people don't know anything

about football for anyway. What do you think, Tommy? Tommy, you can get your hand up. That was a fun jiggle. People on the live stream loved it. Good. And, yeah. That's not an easy song to sing. As we were singing, I was like, whoa, this is a high song the whole time.

Well, I guess the verses aren't too high. Love a Little Imagine Dragons. The original song is called Demons. And I believe, I think A.J. Hawk is in the original one. He has a feature in it. The music video. The Pro Skater guy? A.J. Hawk's Pro Skater? Yeah, Tony Hawk's son.
