Go! Record! The episode is starting now. Rachel brought up a good point to me this week, something we've been talking about. I want to get your thoughts on this. Okay. Brad and Tymon, hey, look alive over there, Kip.

All right. Hey, 2-1 count, get your bitch here, Kip. Wake up! So often, decently often, you hear people refer to little baby boys as heartbreakers. You've heard this? You've heard this? Yeah.

Why do we do this? Because to me, it insinuates that baby is attractive. And not only is that baby attractive, but women are going to like him. And he is going to treat them poorly. And those women will be heartbroken because of your baby. He did that. Because he's attractive right now. He'll break their hearts.

Look at those eyes. That kid is going to just, he's going to lead girls on that he's not really that interested in. I can just tell. I can just tell. Oh, he's got, oh, he's already got curls. He is going to Snapchat so many girls at the same time. Oh, my gosh. Those dimples.

Oh, he's going to objectify women so hard later on in life. And they're still going to love him, even though they shouldn't. Oh, my gosh. He's growing teeth already. He is going to grow. He's growing teeth. I was more focused on the second half of the sentence than the first half.

I was like, think of the joke. The first half doesn't really matter. Just say anything in the first half. Forget it. Improv over. All right, my bad. It was going to be good, though. You'll never know what I was going to say.

Uh-oh. Ooh, I think this tight beat means that it's going down with some random thoughts in white meat, too. Midwest best friends eating fast food on repeat. So come along, let's have some fun and go ahead, get on your feet, because this is the Ghost Rubs Podcast. Everybody in the morning, we're taking ground. Ghost Rubs Podcast. Ghost Rubs Podcast.

Oh, he's growing teeth. Oh, he's growing teeth. Oh, he's growing an arm. Look at this. He's growing on both sides. That was fun, though. Fun little improv exercise there to surprise you with. But yeah, it is funny. That is a good observation.

A heartbreaker. He is going to be a heartbreaker. Man. Is there an equivalent to girls? Something like, ooh, you're going to have to keep the fellas off of her. Or something like, you know. You're going to have to beat the boys away with the stick.

You better not let her have a... Please don't hit boys. Don't let her have a cell phone. Yeah. Why not? Because she's so cute. who knows what she'll do with it probably just set alarms that's what hattie does how do you set timers i let her borrow my phone the other day for a quiet time and i get it back and yeah she set like 15 timers fine i'm like'm like, does she, maybe she's just learning a concept of time. Like she just wants to,

like, okay, what does 11 minutes feel like? Yeah, that's fun. Okay. Whoa. Went by faster than I thought.

Interesting. Cause like with Bo, I could tell him something's five minutes away and he's like, you know, that seems like a eternity. But if I say,

hey, we're leaving in five minutes, he's like, five minutes. Come on, dad. Come on. Can we do this longer? So anyway, that's fun. Yeah. I think I would start to figure out like, what do they know? Like, all right, we're leaving in two. That's the pirate sauce. Right. Right. Yeah. All right. If you kind of know how long that is, maybe it's two Xena

princess warriors. That's how long the church is going to be. Okay. Okay. Sounds good. Yeah. It's funny. Like the word minute to them, I think is so subjective, like one minute. And so I just, I'm always, I'm a big fan of like, give them expectations. Like, Hey, you need to come in. We're going to come in in two minutes. We're going to start cleaning up in two minutes. I can, I can make that two minutes last 18 minutes if I want. Like, this is why they're confused. That's probably, that's fair. Yeah. Sometimes I'll be like two minutes last 18 minutes if I want. This is why they're confused. That's probably. That's fair, yeah. Sometimes I'll be like, two minutes, and then I'll go inside and make dinner or something.

I'm like, all right, probably should go back out there and tell them to clean up. Yeah, no wonder Heidi likes the alarm. She knows you can trust him. Yeah. This is actually four minutes. Except sometimes I shut off the alarm a little bit. I'm like, oh, it's about to go off. Yeah, I got an Apple Watch you didn't know about.

Silence it before she notices. Hattie's so responsible, man. Because like yesterday, Catherine was gone. Oh, Henry got a little snip snip yesterday. Oh, what kind? The Gomco kind. Gomco? What does that mean?

I don't know for sure, but I know that it's one of the types of techniques you can do for the old circumcision. There's more than one technique. Yeah, and I don't know. The only reason I know that is because one of my friends is techniques you can do for the old circumcision. There's more than one technique. Yeah. And I don't know, like the only reason I know that one of my friends is a doctor and he was like in med, he was in medical school and he's like, yeah,

learn, you know, this and this, I think I'm a fan of the Gomko method. So like it became an inside joke. Oh, I spelled Gomko, right?

That's a plus. Let's do circumcision technique. Gomko versus suction. No, not suction. Plastabelle. Oh yeah. What's Plastabelle?

I have heard him say that Plastabelle. What is Plastabelle? Okay. Dude. So I can't say these words on the podcast. Yeah. So Catherine like took, took Henry and she's like,

she's like, I hated every minute of it. Like she like had to step outside. She's like, I couldn't be there. It's like putting your dog every minute of it. She had to step outside. She's like, I couldn't be there. It's like putting your dog down. Do it. I don't want to be near it, though. Yeah.

I mean, it's like, hey, do you mind forcefully hurting my kid real quick? Yeah. For longevity, but right now, it's the worst. And so, yeah, that happened. Poor guy. Dude, this is like how... What can I say about Plastibel? This is how we used to...

It seems like a similar technique to how we used to have to castrate bulls on the farm. Castibel. Castibel. Plastibel. It says the benefit may be there's a lower volume of bleeding. Okay.

But it seems like nothing else is good about it. Not much lower volume of bleeding. Okay. But it seems like nothing else is good about it. Not much lower volume of anything. Yeah, it uses a tight string. I'm not going to say where, I'm not going to say how, but I will say it says ring stays in place for seven to 10 days before falling off. Do I think that might be what happened to him?

You said Gomco. Wait, who are you talking about? I said Gomco, but I didn't talk to anybody about Gomco. I just knew Gomco was a thing. You said Gomko. Wait, who are you talking about? I said Gomko, but I didn't talk to anybody about Gomko. I just knew Gomko was a thing. You asked me what kind. That's why I was trying

to talk about it. But I think he has a ring. Currently? Yes. Hey, less blood volume. Poor Catherine. She's going to be listening to this and get horrified all over again.

I'm sorry if I shouldn't be talking about this. I haven't had a kid. I don't know. I'm just intrigued. She was just so anxious about the whole thing. I'm interested.

I was like, I mean, obviously, I don't know. maybe that's just i have a heart for my children of course but i was like i should have taken him to the doctor because i could have i could have endured that like obviously you don't like it when your kid gets hurt but like it just feels like katherine as the mother was just like so bothered by it and i was like yeah oh it's just they they do it they gotta do it dude okay gomko is a type of clamp as Oh, it's just they do it. They got to do it. Dude. Okay.

Gomp Co is a type of clamp as well. So it's either way. Maybe they all they clamp no matter what. Brother. No idea. Oh, I'm looking at the device. I'm talking. I'm getting out of this.

I'm getting out of this. That looked like a medieval torch. That was like something from saw. Oh, I just saw the Gomp Co clamp. Get out of here. I did. I exit out everything. I'm looking at voice. Now. All right. There was like a. Yeah, I just saw the Gobco clamp. Get out of here. I did. I exited out everything. I'm looking at voice.

Now there was like a, yeah, it was like an inside joke with my buddies about Gomco. And we had the gift from a brave heart where he's like, but we like put like the, like, you know, instead of saying freedom, we just yelled Gomco.

So that's that. All that to say, while, while Catherine Catherine was gone had to use my phone but it was during Bo's nap time during Rosie's nap time and so I was like Hattie I just need to like look at look to see if they're sleeping a few times she's like well I can do that for you I was like you are a you know 35 year old too much seven year old's body and she's like yeah I'll do that and then she came up she's like dad they're both asleep just wanted to let you know that's great thank you hattie starting to be another parent it's really amazing so helping out yeah that's fun anyway poor henry poor little man he's clamped up one way or another he's clamped up plastabel gomko

mojin i saw that was an option mojin m-o-g-e-n i'm done looking at it don't ask me what it is i'm done not typing that in ever again that'd be a funny maybe not maybe a not so funny segment is like hey have jake look up like kind of like what we did with those nasty animals at one time it was like yeah this is this is to look at, but it's also like not technically you gotta find the, you gotta find the balance. Like don't make them look up like these terrible nasty things, but like, did you know what it looks like? You know, for hot dogs to be made or something like that. An old fashioned root canal. Right. Google that. Yeah. Yeah. That would not be fun. Yeah. It's like, ah, ah, you know, they used to do that.

So, all right. Fun game. So wait, let's go back to castrating bulls real quick. Did you experience that growing up? Uh, no, I think I was offered the opportunity. Hey, you want to rubber band this one? No, no, no. I think I'll just dribble a basketball. I need to practice a few more times before I do it on the real thing. So, yeah, dribble and basketball. I'll just go shoot outside. I'll probably just basketball and stuff. Basketball and friends and just people. Yeah, I don't know if there's a new age version of it or what farmers are doing nowadays, but I think you just rubber band them and they'll just fall off.

No way. Yeah. Really? They just cut off the circulation? Oh, yeah. Really? Oh, yeah. Interesting. Because your grandpa

was... He was the farmer. The cattle man. Cattle man. This is your dad's dad. Yep. So your dad's a cattle man. He's a bandit. He's a bandit. Oh. Yeah. Yeah. like either the commercial Zatarance

but it was like Cattlemans Cattlemans Cattlemans anyway that's that yeah speaking of bodily harm

played a lot of football this past weekend oh my gosh a few things that I thought I'd talk about one thing that i'm uh i'm feeling more passionate about after playing football with a bunch of my friends this weekend

is unfortunately i think a lot of our friends are getting to the age where they enjoy complaining about how they're getting older okay like i it's like one of those like people love talking about shark week more than they actually watch shark week okay i think our friends are like they're getting older. Okay. It's like one of those, people love talking about Shark Week more than they actually watch Shark Week. Okay. I think our friends are like, they're kind of enjoying like, my 30s are hitting hard. Man, I'm going to be sore after this.

Who knows? We're going to be whatever. Okay. And I'm like, are you guys really that sore? Granted, I'm running a mile a day, so I think it's got to be helping with like lactate acid buildup,

but people really enjoy talking about how sore they are. Really? Scott Peck, I know you're listening to this. I believe that you have a problem going on. Scott is claiming to be Scott. Nope. Whatever I got, I'll get fired. You want me to get fired about Scott Peck every week. I'll get fired up. Scott Peck every week. Scott's been complaining since he was 10 years old about being like that. Like that's just Scott. There's just certain personalities. Scott was the kid who cried every single time we played basketball and sat out for like five minutes every time

and then would just miraculously be healed. See, I'm not talking about Scott. There's other people I have in mind. No, I'll talk about Scott. Yeah, yeah. But I just noticed that. I was like, wow, everyone out here is loving getting to say they're in their 30s now

and complain about it. In reality, there are professional athletes playing professional sports every day older than us. We're not like way past our prime. We can do this, guys. I'm tired of hearing all the complaints. We can do this. Just do it. But you don't feel like your body is more sore these days?

I mean, I get a little sore but i mean it's not gonna like the championship game we're trying to shorten it because the guys are getting sore i'm like really we can't do this for 15 more minutes that that i i i'm on your side on that like how cool is it that we're doing this we organized a massive football tournament amongst our friends we self-sanctioned it, officiated it. It's so cool that we're doing this. Let's appreciate what we have here. You're still like, you just played.

You're not sore yet. You're still warm. I'm never complaining while I'm playing. I feel great right now. The next day sometimes, it's like, oh man. And it's football. Okay, so talk about the plays. It was fun. I definitely went harder than than anyone else and i knew i probably would um but at the same time it like

it worked it wasn't like oh i did this and this is not working now it's really embarrassing and it seemed like other teams uh you know i think they made fun of us a little bit but i think they're also like we were playing gunner and gunner's like this is actually pretty cool to watch you guys like all flip up your thing and like know what play you're running yes so we were by no means like all of a sudden amazing like no surprise Isaac's team won oh did they they had a team full of 23 year olds

so they were doing just fine yeah but I was telling my dad about all this I realized I was like oh I forgot to tell him everything we're doing and so I was telling my dad you know I've got all these plays and we did an auction draft for my team and or for the teams. My dad had an idea. He was like, next time you do this, you should do a thing where only the captains know like the money value for each person, but everyone else is aware of a new rule. And it's the person who went for the lowest amount

of money. So like essentially the last draft pick, one dollar draft pick the first time they score it's worth double oh but you don't know until they score okay so the captains all know like don't let so-and-so score a touchdown today and that person also doesn't know so they score a touchdown all right we did it and it was worth double like oh man, man. It's like bittersweet. Like, sweet, but dang, dude. We get 12 points. I was a value pick. I was about like, you knew you'd get me later. That's why you waited to get me.

That's pretty good. So I thought that was a great idea. I was like, we should definitely do that next time. Where it's like, sweet, we scored. It's worth 12. Oh, guys. Me. Dang it.

So how far did you guys do? Or like, how far did you guys go? Were how far did you guys go were you um we we beat everybody once it was it was actually very fair it was just like i think every team but everybody we did different round robin things and um it was just a blast to figure out just team dynamics and player values me and the captains are all texting afterwards like who was like your best value player you know you feel like who you got a good deal on you know like you're doing a keeper league next year yeah if you could keep one guy and dude it was impressive harrison pollard and garrett gibson run a team those two like single-handedly would beat teams really it was amazing they were so good they had a connection oh yeah yeah garrett

was a stud gear was probably the mvp of the of the day well garrett's there's there's certain guys out there garrett being one of them i think gar Garrett and Gunnar are very adjacent in a lot of ways. But Garrett's just one of those guys, and it's really good for Harrison because I think Garrett, you could throw the ball 100 miles an hour at him, and he would still catch it in perfect form. And it would just be like, yeah, it hurt, but I'm fine. You know what I mean? Whereas you and me, it's like, ah, dude, I don't know.

Just slow it down a little bit. Whereas Garrett, he's just a tough guy. I could also see you throwing the ball into the dirt in front of Garrett. And for whatever reason, he would block it like a catcher and not let it get past him. Like, you don't need to do that. Yeah. Yeah. I know.

I didn't want to run and get it. Yeah. I thought it just bounced off my face. Just being careful about it. Yeah. Uh, okay. What about, did you, did you feel, or do you, uh, learn what gunner and i did as a prank oh yeah let's talk about this so you texted me i don't know where i was maybe shooting i don't know and you

said hey i'm gonna run into your house and eat something for the podcast studio yeah like okay great no problem i get home there that day left out a few plays on the table and there's a sticky note that says saw your plays and then there's an awful signature with it and so i was like oh that's kind of funny brad did that i don't know why he like signed his name necessarily but it was brad he texted me he was gonna be in the house okay that's kind of funny great yeah and then once the game is complete all the games are completely over gunner's like do you like my prank i was like what are you talking about he's like he's like i saw your plays i read the sticky note i was like that was you wait were you in my house like, I saw your plays. I read the sticky note. I was like, that was you?

Wait, were you in my house? Why were you in my house? I still don't know. All right. I have no idea what happened. Yeah, I know. Yeah, Gunner, you gotta like be a little more obvious. He was like, I was hoping you would see

and like maybe redo your whole playbook because I saw your plays. I go, dude, to be honest, had no idea it was even you. It was a crazy signature. It was yours. You know, i didn't know what totally gutter duckworth looks like i know if we would have known what prank we were doing quote unquote we would have made sure to like like that he was shown on the uh wise camp like the door oh yeah because we like snuck him in the garage door because it was like well i'm pretty pretty sure Jake could like see us if we're in the front door. So I'll go in anyway.

They were coming over delivering food for us for Henry. Oh, that's nice. Um, so we're hanging out with them and I was like, has Jake told you about his armband thing or something like that? And I don't remember if he'd heard about it, but we were like talking like highly about like, that's awesome. Like I was like, kind of like what I said in the podcast. I was like, I just, I love it, dude.

I love that he did that yeah gunner was complimentary um so gunner's like and i think maybe i joked like yeah you should go in there and pretend like you stole his place yeah like see if he freaks out you know and gunner like we were hanging out like probably 10-15 minutes later he's like so do you think it's like how realistic is it you think we could get his house i I was like, I can get his house. And so our initial idea, and then I was like, but I was like so worried about any prank. I was like, I truly, I don't want Jake to be mad at me,

even if eventually he's like, okay, I'm not mad at Brad. I don't want to get in trouble at all. Like I don't want, because like I know you were taking it seriously. So I was like, because we had the idea. I was disguised in the play calls all day. I figured you were, I was saying 80% of the words I said meant nothing just to throw them off the scent. So I keep going trigger thing or whatever.

Yeah. Just, you need to know one little thing. Um, so I, but, but, but my favorite idea was to like,

let's say you had, and I didn't know if this was like all your plays, but I think we assumed gunner and I assumed this were like the place. Like, cause I was like, Gunnar, don't actually look at them. Don't cheat.

Like don't take pictures or anything. He's like, I won't. Um, but we were going to take one of these like five cards that seemed in my head, like identical. And we were going to put it in your pillowcase. And so there,

and then we were going to like text you or leave a note or something. Gunnar was going to say like, Hey man, uh, great plays or something like that. Probably right. Legibly, I would assume for his name. And so then you get home and you see this note and then you see that you only have four of your five things and you're like, Gunner stole one of my play. Yeah. That's kind of fun. Or maybe like if you were to text, text you the same thing or whatever, and then you're like fuming about it. know that's where i was like i don't want to do this i don't want to do anything i am boiling i would say to bring it on yeah you're gonna i dare you to memorize what we're like finally you're like either you redo the stuff or you just like get over it and then you go to bed that night and you're like it's been here the whole time. Why I ought to, you know? So,

but we didn't, I was like, just, just write on a sticky note, you know, good place and then scribble. So no one knows what it's going to say. And then it won't be a good prank at all.

Gunner. Yeah. I saw this. I was like, Oh, that's kind of funny. Brad saw these. I wonder what he thought about it.

Nice place. Yeah. He wrote a nice place, man. And then, and yeah, just signed his name. So that was the prank.

Because I texted Gunnar that night. And I was like, has Jake texted you anything? He's like, no. I'm like, dang, bummer. Played him in chess a lot. I didn't even think about him. He was in my home. I had no idea.

Yeah, so anyway, snuck Gunnar in. No good reason. Bring him through the garage. It's home. It's football. Plays prank. Bring him through the garage. It's home. It's football place. Prank. Pranked. Yeah.

Tymon's been pranking us recently. Yeah, that's been an inside joke between us. You guys pranking me with the haircuts and the time. Yeah, Tymon was 25 minutes late today. Prank. Yeah, you guys are good. Keep me on my toes. Here's something.

Not a prank, but kind of adjacent. Hattie's on to me. I'll say that right now. Okay. So, okay. But back up. Yesterday. Sorry, was that me?

Yeah, just smacking something. Smoke alarm. We're eating lunch. Anyway, it doesn't matter. I was in the dining room with Rosie, helping her with lunch yesterday. Hattie's in the kitchen getting some pretzel crisps onto her plate. And she's like scooping them with her arm, trying to get them under a plate. And like four pretzels fall on the ground. Like just not, it was a bad scoop,

not very accurate with the pretzels. And I'm like, and I see her pick them up, which is good, but you can still see crumbs. I'm like, Hattie, you got to pick up all the pretzels. And so she goes to do it and she goes, what the heck? It's just always, I love it. She says, what the heck? And she comes in and she's like, I found a tooth on the ground. And I was like, what? And I look at it and it's a, it's a tooth.

What the heck? What the heck? What the heck? And then she's like talking to me and I'm looking at her. I'm like, Hattie, feel right down here on the bottom of your teeth you lost like and she knew that she had a loose tooth but i was like you lost your tooth what the heck what the heck and so and so anyway yeah fun crazy whatever lost her tooth and so put the uh you know put the tooth in a little baggie under the pillow um i guess parents fast forward three minutes if you want to

be careful. You get it. Tooth fairy prank. I go in this morning. I try to wake up early because I know I'm doing all this stuff with Bo. It doesn't matter. And Catherine's like, oh, we still haven't done the tooth fairy. And how are you still sleeping? Rosie's still sleeping. So I go in there. And my mindset

when I'm trying to be stealthy is like, don't actually be that stealthy. Just be And Hattie's still sleeping. Rosie's still sleeping. So I go in there and my mindset when, when I'm trying to be stealthy is like, don't actually be that stealthy. Just be coffee. Be normal. Yeah. Not a great strategy in this regard. So I go and also Hattie wrote a note that said, Hey, dear tooth fairy. Um, my friend's summer's tooth fairy's name is crystal. Do you know her? Oh, wow. That's so sweet. And so, and so and i realized like as i'm going there's like oh the note and so i write dear hattie yes i know crystal she's my best friend that's it and i go in there and i lift you sign it like you're your fairy name i forgot what the fairy's name was so i didn't sign anything just gutter duckworth i should have i should have done

it all in cursive and then she wouldn't have had any idea so i like lift up the pillow a little bit and she's kind of like half on half off the pillow and so i'm like and i'm like just be confident and she's a pretty heavy sleeper and i can't find the tooth anywhere i can find the note but i can't find the tooth and then i realized her note is the same size as my note and i'd already kind of stuffed my note in there. I was like, oh gosh. Uh, so I just freaked out and took both notes and left the dollar and she kind of rolled over and I saw her kind of moving. I was like, oh gosh, I just gotta, I just gotta do something. So I like, I like played on the offense and I was like, Hey, you okay? What's going on? What's wrong? It's me.

You're moving around. I'm your dad. Yeah. You're moving around a lot. You're, you're, you're doing okay. Okay. Just go back to sleep. She's like, I was just checking on something. She checked under her pillow for the dollar.

Um, and then I did like, as I was like going to calm her, I did slip the note under there. I was like, Hey, what's going on? I was like,

what's going on? Sleight of hand. You okay? Um, and then like Matt Damon and oceans 11. You're the pickpocketer. I was Linus. Uh, and, And then like 30 minutes later. Matt Damon in Ocean's Eleven. You're the pickpocketer. I was Linus. And so then like 30 minutes later, she comes in.

I was like, oh, Hattie, by the way. Today's the. I forgot. Did you check under your pillow, Crystal's friend? She goes, yes, I have a dollar under there, but I'm pretty sure the tooth fairy was dad. And I'm like, what? Why would you think that?

And she's like, well, for starters, the note wasn't written in pink, and my tooth fairy always writes in pink. I was like, I didn't know that. I was like, well, show me the note. Show me the note. I was like, oh, well, this note, maybe she didn't know. She's going to write you a note. And like, this note looks like it was from the same paper that's from the Hutch.

You know, where we keep our paper. How do you think the Tooth Fairy only has one colored pen? That's what I was like. I was like, maybe they should use our pen because they didn't know. It's the Tooth Fairy. It's the Tooth Fairy. Well, and then she went back and she brings her note from the first time. Oh, my gosh.

She goes, pink. Told you. I was like, okay. I'm boiling. Also, the handwriting looks different. I was like, oh. I'm boiling. And she's like, also, the handwriting looks different. I was like, oh, well, maybe your tooth fairy's on vacation. You know, I'm like going into this lie. You're trying to grasp it at anything.

I'm just like, I should just tell her. And so anyway, she's still not convinced. She's like, also, I woke up and dad was wrestling around under my pillow. I was like, gosh, darn it. Ruined my child's innocence. And I was like, daddy, darn it. Ruined my child's innocence. And I was like, Hattie, keep it cool. So I don't know if we've convinced her otherwise, but Catherine was going pretty far down the rabbit hole of lying to her,

and I was like, I feel weird about this. Keep digging. She's like, Hattie, she's probably just on vacation. And the other one, I'm like, okay. Hattie, do you know PTO? It's time you learned. Tooth Fairy's on it right now. Yeah, exactly. A little R&R, Hattie. Come on. Work-life balance.

It's time you learned. That's fun. We forgot to mention, but you guys obviously know that this episode, like every episode, is brought to you by Good Ranchers. That was all the intro right there. Now we can get into the episode. It's brought to you by goodranchers.com, GRKC. Which is American Meat Delivered.

10% off, thanks. Yes. All right. So good. Just good. Good meat. I want to get your thoughts on something. Well, I'll start with the end.

I quoted your mom this week a little bit. Oh, love it. Love any chance to be able to quote your mom. I want to know what quotes you know of my mom. Not many. You guys got any good quotes from your mom, first of all? Another one my mom likes to say, it's hard to be on time.

You're either early or late. Oh, that's fun. I think a quote I heard from my mom the most growing up was, Jake, you have to wake up. Jake, you have school in 15 minutes. You have to wake up. Jake, wake up. That was probably the most common one I heard.

Yeah. Wake up. Jeez. So the night before the football tournament, it was the night before football, and all through the group chat. And all through the chat. Basically, Gunnar texts to another large group chat, some of these guys are playing football some are not the berg yeah are

you in that i used to be i think i got kicked out bummer yeah the berg well i was never in it i just recently got put in gunner just text me maybe there's a limit yeah honestly gunner text everyone the night was the night before hey if anyone wants to come and watch and make fun of us the madness starts tomorrow at Shawnee Mission South 8 a.m. come and watch and I was like oh

that is a good call because Gunnar and I have talked we're kind of the ones heading this up like we didn't have a great solution for if someone gets injured like what do you do there's no subs like

that's kind of a gray area to this if someone goes down people get hurt a lot and so I was like that's a good call Gun area to this. If someone goes down. People get hurt a lot. And so I was like, that's a good call, Gunnar. We should try to get some like, we probably need at least one person to be there kind of watching. And so I decided to hopefully increase some buy-in. So I text, also, there's a good chance someone gets injured. So come ready to sub in.

Kind of letting them in on like what Gunnar and I have realized. I text this immediately. Thumbs down reaction. Thumbs down reaction. Thumbs down reaction, thumbs down reaction, thumbs down reaction. I'm like, what did I say? Why are people hating that I addressed it? Scott Caldwell texts,

Jake, WTF? I'm like, well, that's kind of funny or whatever. Where's the food? So I replied back, how big is your God? Mine is bigger than superstition. That's right. So I was like, are they upset at me

because I'm like jinxing someone's going to get hurt? Now that you've said it, it's going to happen. I really couldn't figure out. I was like, these are my best friends. I don't know why people are down voting this. I'm really trying to just help us out here. Yeah. Someone, it's inevitable.

Like just let's have a sub ready to go. So if you didn't have a sub, no one would have gotten hurt though. Do you understand? Oh, because of the superstition. Because I manifested it the night before. You did did manifest dude. And we've talked about, don't do that. Right. It works, dude. Be careful. Well, yeah. Like it's the same thing with like budgeting and finances. Like if you create like an investment portfolio, you will go bankrupt and need to use it. Right. That's why I don't have an emergency fund.

I don't want to have to use one. Yep. Dude, I can't believe you even said that word out loud. I'm sorry I said the I word. Gosh darn it. Injured. So the next day comes. It's football time.

Oh, first of all, this is great. Just side note about Scott Caldwell. The name of our group chat, I think Gunnar very intelligently named the group chat of the guys playing. It was named March 23rd, 8 a.m. That was the name of our group chat, I think Gunnar very intelligently named the group chat of the guys playing. It was named March 23rd, 8 a.m. That was the name of the group chat just so there's no, you know, like confusion. Scott Galval text Harrison, his captain,

at 8, 10 a.m. It says, hey, what color are we wearing today? So first of all, he hasn't paid attention to any of the previous texts, has no idea that they're black. Second of all, this implies that he is still home and is able to dress in whatever color he needed to be at 8, 10. I'm all, this implies that he is still home. Oh yeah. And is able to dress in whatever color needed be at eight. I'm just,

you know, he's like comparing. What are they better in? Orange. Okay. Like, like, like orange or yeah,

like blaze orange. Like my eyes really pop in bird. Morgan likes the hunter. Yeah. And so probably, okay. Going to grab some coffee. I'll be over there quick.

Yeah. We are all ready to go by 8 a.m. And then, I mean, probably 10 minutes go by. We're like, I guess... Somebody calls Scott. We call him and he's... We're like, dude, what are you doing? He's like, does it start at 8.30 or 9.30?

Like, oh, brother. Oh, man. It's at 8, dude. And he's like, oh, boy. Okay, well, I still have Colin. So I'm gonna need to figure out... I'm gonna have to drop off Colin somewhere and I'll be there when I can.

So he shows up like an hour and a half late. That's just kind of a fun fact. Let's just say he got double for his touchdowns. That was kind of a fun thing. It was obviously not a huge deal. We just had a hard time. But after the tournament, we're all talking like, hey, what'd you guys think of the rules? Anything you'd change? A couple of people were saying stuff. Oh, we did do a huge deal. We just had a hard time. But after the tournament, we're all talking like,

hey, what did you guys think of the rules? Anything you'd change? A couple of people were saying stuff. Oh, we did do a national anthem. And so Garrett texted more national anthems next time. That was fun. Was this a recording or somebody singing? No, Harrison led us and then we all joined in. Johnny had a little football on the side of his like a patch on his arm. So we all faced that. Johnny, you remember? Yeah.

Cup to cup. He was on my team. We did a full-on national anthem, all of us singing together. It was nice. I couldn't get tears going. I was trying. Not that patriotic, I guess. And I texted. I said, I think everything went great.

Next time we need to make it more clear when we're starting it. I think easily you could show up 90 minutes late to this and we need to get around that. Downvote, downvote, downvote, downvote. What the heck, Jake? Because you said that, I retroactively was late. What the heck?

After the tournament, we're all kind of chatting, and I said something to Scott, because I just assumed he was joking. I was like, oh, I did like your text yesterday, when you were just like, Jake, WTF. I was like, that was kind of funny. He's like, dude, that was like my actual reaction in the moment. I was like, oh, you were like upset

by this. He's like, oh, you were upset by this. He's like, yeah, I mean, we know someone's going to get hurt. You don't need to address it. And I was like, wait, so do you believe in jinxes? What's going on here? So just shout out to your mom for giving me the quote.

But also people need to be reminded, you can text whatever you want. God doesn't care what you've texted about. What's going to happen is going to happen. That's yeah. It is a nice, like, I liked that. My mom said that because to an extent I growing up, I think I had superstitions or like, or like, as I was watching a basketball, like even today, they're kind of fun. Like, uh, the chiefs, I wear like one sweatshirt, you know, every single chiefs game, not because I truly think it's going to win, but it's like, well, this is kind of a fun thing to say. Yeah. Every time I wear this sweatshirt, chiefs keep winning. So I'm going to keep wearing it, but I don't think it's like,

dang it, dude, we lost. And I looked down, I'm like, it's because I didn't wear the sweatshirt. It's because I didn't do it. You know, or like back like back in the day uh you put a spoon under your pillow for uh spoon fairy oh or whatever like pajamas inside out or stuff i didn't do any of this um the spoon fairy yeah yeah um but like i didn't truly believe it but kind of you know it's just a little bit of like oh dude you jin you jinxed us? Come on, man. Yeah. But then, yeah, when you're like, hey, let's think about this rationally. The God of the universe is much more sovereign than whatever is under your pillow tonight. Oh, I will gladly accept the guy who sometimes jinxes things. Bring it on.

Call me whatever you want. Like you guys know Harrison Bunker has never missed a field goal under 40. Dude. Oh, why would you say that? announcer curse i don't know he's 3 000 miles away it doesn't matter he can't hear you yeah you're right actually no yeah great point it doesn't matter how many people are watching him yeah yeah that's funny that's a good you should you should be that guy from now on. I don't, yeah,

I'll jinx anything. Hey, let's just be thankful that, you know what? This has happened before while playing football. Hey, let's just be, we're two hours into it.

Let's be thankful that no one's gotten hurt yet. Oh, why you gotta say it? I don't know. I'm a thankful human being. Yeah. I can't believe you, man.

That's yeah. So all to say, I'll gladly be the guy who text things that are obvious for the sake of helping us out. You're a martyr in that way. That's good. Football's fun. It was a blast. I can't wait for the next time.

How often do you drop your ring these days? I'm obsessed with playing with it right now. I don't know why. Where'd it go? I have to have it. Oh, it's here. It's here. It's here.

It's one of those things where they come back from their grandparents

and you just blame everything on the grandparents. I don't know what they did to him down there. Yeah, what did you watch, dude? Like who... Yeah. But I mean, it's one of those things where it's funny to talk about, but it's also like,

hey, we don't say that kind of stuff. We were listening to Great Day to Be Alive by Ben Rector. Okay. Vibing. You know, Ben Rector on the cover has a cowboy hat on. Bo loves cowboys.

Yeah. And he's like, who sings this? He's like back in the back. I'm like, who sings this song? I was like, Ben Rector, do you love it? Or do you love him? And he goes, no, I hate him. I was like, okay.

Hey. Wow. Hey, Mr. Poopy Pan. Just right off the bat. And then just like, you know, how was your time with Honey and Pops? Pops is dead. Pops is dead.

He's not anywhere around anymore. And I'm like, we don't joke about that stuff, dude. It's like, what do you want me to have? Hey, not funny. Where's this coming from? Yeah. If you're gonna make a joke,

make it funny. Make it funny. Make it howdy-die. Give some context. Yeah. Pay me a picture. Misdirection a little bit. Yeah.

I can't get a hold of pops oh why not because he's dead that's funny yes fool me a little bit yeah do you like him no i hate him yeah that's kind of sad it's like he's probably innocent he's being goofy about it he knows it's like he's like trying to be funny it's like it's one of those things where it's like you have to be really careful of like not even a little bit of smiling when it's that humor it's like hey that's not we don't talk like that it's not the best yeah for whatever reason i do not like it and i'm sure i use the word hate way too often in front of my kids but i do not like it when my kids say hate about anything i've always tried to be careful that word it's just a strong word very strong word yeah and it's just like don't say that don't i've never flipped

anybody off and i've never told anybody i hate them those seem like serious things yeah it's kind of one in the same you know like i see middle finger i think wow that just that looks like the letter h to me it's a big old h anyway so uh yeah working on that with old with old bow but also just it's amazing you you're away from a kid for a week and you just forget how often he just hurts me like he just he'll like it's it's amazing. You're away from a kid for a week and you just forget how often he just hurts me. Like he just, he'll like, it's, it's amazing.

Like we play with, you know, swords and math monster and all this stuff so often. And it's amazing how he cannot within himself, like contain himself, not to just smack me every once in a while with the sword. Like, it's like,

dude, you can't do that. Like, stop it. Like you could swing at the air, but like, like every once in a while he makes contact with my knuckles or something. Oh, it just kills.

Bo. Bo. Stop. What are you doing? Get some help. That's funny. I'm sure, I mean, there's a lot of probably things when you don't see your kids for a week,

like you feel like they've changed so much. Like, wow, you didn't used to do this. Like, is this humor or? Or just like Rosie seems like a monster, like huge now compared to. Physically is a monster. Once I'm holding this eight pound baby and then all of a sudden, whoa, Rosie's. Look at those hands.

Hideous. My gosh. It's alive. It's like that big baby on Toy Story, you know? Big baby on Toy Story. Hey, big baby. Toy Story 3 maybe? Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Oh, yeah. Like, that's what I felt like. It was like Rosie just coming at me like, oh, my gosh. You're so fast. I thought you were talking about, like, the terrifying baby from the first one, like the spider.

Oh, no. Yeah. Dude, that is, like, borderline. Yeah. Like, I don't know if I want my kids watching Toy Story 1 because of that part. Yeah. Sid is a little, like,

he puts together different parts of things. It's very effectively terrifying. Yes. It's like... Yeah. Easily the scariest of all the Toy Stories, right? No. Toy Story 4.

Scary? Oh, I don't know about Toy Story 4. Is that the one... The sporky one? Toy Story 4, I don't remember what happens in it. I'm not sure if I've seen it, actually. You know Toy Story 4 that well, Jake? I thought 2019, maybe.

What the heck? What the heck? What the heck? What the heck? Why do you know that movie? Toy Story 3 is fairly dark. That's the one with the prospector? Lotso.

No, Prospector is Toy Story 2. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Lotso. Is Toy Story 3 the one that's the exact same plot as Prison Break? I'm not sure. But it could be because they kind of break free of like they would he has to go in to break him Out nursery and stuff or whatever it is like the daycare. Yeah Toy Story 3 is the prison break one the monkey Maybe that's what I was thinking of and buzz has the like tattoo of the map chest. It's named Buzz Schofield

Yeah, the monkeys kind of scary. Yeah, Toy Story. Let'sofield. Yeah, great movies, but they have some scary stuff. They have Sucre in there. Sucre. Is that his name? Yeah. Behind the toilet. They've been chiseling away. Yeah, Sid was terrified, though, because he was exploding things.

Yeah. And there was, like, these, like, creatures that were half one thing, half another. And it helped that it's, like, the animation was so early that everyone looked scary. Yes. Yeah, even Andy was a little. Andy, they, like, showed his legs way more than his face because faces are just way... And when he gets

pulled down into the aliens, remember the aliens? I think that's Toy Story 2. I think. What the heck? We got to watch them all now. I did not like the old prospector. I want to re-watch them.

Toy Story 3, I remember almost crying it. They did not like the old Prospector. I want to re-watch them. That was a, yeah. Toy Story 3, I remember like almost crying it. They don't make them like they used to. Isn't that the one where he goes to college? Toy Story 3, yeah. At the end, he gives all his toys away. Yeah, that one will get you. What the heck?

I haven't seen that much. What the heck? It's like Timon has watched it more recently than we have. Catherine always also remembers like movies pretty in detail like that how many times have you seen this I tend to remember

other mini random things about movies like release dates for some reason like release years not necessarily dates but like well that's probably

not that impressive we need to get you on some trivia then yeah come to Westport Flea Market yeah I have I've been talking about

some daydreams recently got a new daydream of the week okay this week i discovered really quick sorry can you handle it for like a minute or minute or two go to the bathroom can you guys are you okay maybe i'm trying to think brad how did we do this for the first four years yeah timing we'll be fine bud okay i'll be right back hey bubs why don't you just not give a frick about us and just go pee when you need to? No, you're good, dude. What the heck was I saying?

Oh, daydream of the week. Yeah. I discovered something that I guess I will make my life's work. Did you know that this is a sport? Chess boxing? No. I've never heard of this. I can't even imagine what that means now.

I discovered it two days ago. I'm not sure how popular it is. It seems like there was an event done a year or two ago among like popular influencers and twitch streamers and creators where they did this giant event and it was really popular it looks like i mean millions of views on youtube where you play like three minutes five minutes worth of chess against someone okay and then ding ding ding time times up then the chessboard was on like a a platform that gets raised into the ceiling you step away from the chessboard it goes up and then you just put boxing gloves on and then you fight for two minutes okay and then ding ding ding yeah take the gloves off chessboard comes back down it was pretty electric because

while they're playing chess they have like noise cancelling headphones on and so there are live commentators commentating the chess he needs to do this he needs to he knows he needs to beat him in the ring hopefully he just stalls out here you know whatever so the more you beat somebody up obviously the less likely they can think clearly to come and play chess yeah and there might be one guy who's better at chess one guy who's better at boxing so he's just trying to like okay i need to ko him in boxing before he checkmates me in chess and some of the matches are like they're both really good at chess both terrible at boxing maybe the opposite both boxers bad at chess just who could just blunder this first yeah i feel like other things like

that i can't think of what they are now but yeah i love the idea of like two different competing things where it's like this one thing is going to affect the way you play this, you know, and vice versa. And like in the middle of boxing, maybe you're still like, you've kind of memorized. Like I still,

I really don't know what to do with my King right now. Like I'm trying to think about that. Sure. While boxing time, we never heard of chess boxing. No. Have you ever heard of Ludwig, the creator?

Yes. He, he like hosted some like chess boxing event like a year ago. I don't know if he started it. Interesting. Or what? But I, I saw it on his YouTube channel. Yeah, exactly. But I'm like, he like hosted some like chess boxing event like a year ago. I don't know if he started it or what, but I saw it on his YouTube channel.

Yeah, exactly. But I'm like, I want to look into this. What's this sport up to? Is there a prize money? Yeah. I'll dedicate my life to it. I don't give a frick.

I would be willing to do that with our friends. I don't know how to play chess, but I want to do, I'll do it on any, any other thing that we know how to play. Oh, that would be fun. Me and Gunner.

I might have a little advantage in chess. I'd say he has a little advantage in boxing. Yeah. I don't want to punch Gunner, though. But it would be fun. But it's boxing, so you have gloves on. Yeah, we could do it with face masks. Sure.

Yeah. Chess box. Like Connect Four boxing? I'd do that. But I'm trying to think of something that would take a little... Like checkers. I play checkers. Checkers boxing?

Not often. How long do you have to make your move in chess usually? There's a ton of different ways to time it. Have you ever seen the timers like on the side? Yeah. Like make a move? Yeah. I think a classical game of chess, you each have like an hour and a half or something.

We're not talking classical. We're talking chess boxing. Okay. Sorry. Is it like speed chess? A little bit. I think the timer starts with five minutes a piece so you don't have a ton of time to make your moves five minutes yes each person has five

minutes on the clock but but no but you said like three minutes in between the rounds yeah so it's like a three minute running clock okay maybe it was chess yeah maybe it's two minutes there's only one move per in between round potentially is that oh no there could be tons of moves but but what a strategy if you're a good boxer just to like wait out the clock every time yeah if you were that much better yeah at boxing yeah um yeah it didn't seem like they paired up like they didn't pair up like magnus carlson with mike tyson now that would be a fun thing just like the best chess player if we get to the like to the boxing round i'm going to die but you're right i guess

theoretically you could just like refuse to move just plead the fifth and just like i'll i'll just try my hand at boxing yeah um yeah you could only do that like one or two times okay you'd run out of time i didn't know if it was like 30 seconds or 10 seconds or i didn't know how how fast you can move in chess if you really wanted to gotcha yeah i think there were five minutes on the clock relatively speed chess huh that's fun yeah if anyone else knows about it there's any local tournaments any leagues out there leagues or leagues are leagues are kind of ruining the sport but I would do it it just

yeah I don't want to do it for free though like boxing that's a hard sport to be conditioned for yeah yeah

I want to be motivated to do it great shape though if you did it oh it'd be fun that's really what I'm looking for an excuse to get in boxing shape remember when you did boxing

for a hot minute yeah alright freestyle show us that anger Jake I don't have any. I'm doing this for fun. Healthy childhood. My mom used to say,

time to get up, Jake. Yeah, boxy shape would be fun, though. I'm in chest shape right now. Yeah. You'll get there. Thanks. Or, you know, both. You gotta have the physical,

or mental before you do the physical. I'm excited. I think Daniel Ming and I are going to play chess on Ghost Wars Getaway, Gulf Shores. Wild times. Might bring a chess set. Let them chess. Let them chess.

Let them check. Let them check. So that's my daydream of the week. I'm going to look into chess boxing more. Okay. See what it's up to. That's good. I like it.

I wish I had a daydream. You got any daydreams, Ty? Ty, any daydreams? Hermosa Beach. Hermosa Beach. Why go be? Tortoise. I was like, I kind of want to just make a YouTube video again.

Oh, yeah. I used to make YouTube videos as like, oh, I want to do this. But I haven't in so long. I can make a much better one now. Let's B-Storm here. What would Tymon's brand be? What types videos what type of creator give me some options tech like gear and gadgets yeah i tested the apple vision pro 2024 you're not gonna believe i'm the only one that did no one else made these um so that tech reviewer okay next uh brand breaking down uh like something time is passionate breaking down famous movie scores like breaking down famous movie scenes

breaking down fill in the blank would you rather like be in front of the camera or do like more of like a watch mojo kind of like video essay like i don't know because i do like those what the heck is video essay i do like those videos it's like just a bunch of footage that has to do with what but it's like just a voiceover like john boy media kind of maybe harder to make like now we're interesting see now we're i got to translate for him he's at a different stage of life than us but you do see john boy's face do you yeah maybe at the beginning when he's doing like a draft kings sometimes he does split screen. You're kidding.

Tommy, do you know how to split screen? Yeah. Oh, okay. I think I could do that. Vertical or horizontal? Whatever you want. Wow, that's a good answer. You name it, he can do it.

Diag? What the heck? What the heck? What else could Tymon do? I think it'd be fun to be in front of the camera. Just like... But like... Never. Like nowadays, never just one setup. That's what I would do is like... could time and do i think it'd be fun to be in front of the camera just like yeah but like never

like nowadays never just one setup that's what i would do is like if i'm ever in front of the camera like the next time you see me in front of the camera like it's i'm in a different place different part of the room really different lighting maybe i don't know beach could be fun and rosa beach um what else could you do what else would get you excited timing i use time in the youtuber i mean i used to do a bunch of drawing videos, like art videos, because I draw and paint and stuff. Ooh, time-lapses. Sometimes time-lapse, sometimes just different angles and stuff.

I'm just a 45-minute video. I was kidding. I just know I can do it better now. Yeah. Yeah. I haven't drawn in so long. Well, that's the beauty of where you're at now. You don't have to decide what your brand is.

You make a drawing video. Did I like this? Did other people watch it? Yeah. I'll make a video about this. I'll make a video essay. Would you rather put more time into, obviously you're going to put more time into editing it regardless,

but more time into the production, like actually making the content or editing the content i don't know you know i mean because i bet yeah i feel like as a really advanced you know when you know things like you do you're like i could do that better i could make that lighting better i color grade or whatever making the same video would take so much longer now because i just know more things like right well partly not because i'm better at it so i can be faster but also like i just if i know how to improve something then i can't help it's hard not to do it yes yeah i don't know be fun maybe maybe new youtube video coming soon we'll see that's fun timon's daydreaming good way to test out my new camera if if not then just go check out all of

timon's old videos because he loves when people watch oh yeah just is there one video like maybe this for you jake and timon like where it's like i just don't want people to watch that one hey anything i made before 2022 2022 no not necessarily but i mean i kind of feel that way really just all of it no oh yeah really that's how anyone feels right like even some early podcast episodes it's like oh why you guys listening to those? What are you doing? What the heck? What the heck?

Yeah. Is that how you feel, Tymon? All your old stuff is trash? Anything that has me and my personality in it, I tend to think is trash. And that's all I created forever. Yeah. Yeah. But I sound like the, I don't know.

Honestly. Yeah. Yeah. But I sound like the, I don't know. Honestly. Okay. One thing, maybe I did like this review of a drone I had that it's like one of the things that it's like actually consistently getting some views. People like it. I think I'm probably still proud of that one. All right.

I'm very over the top in it though. I feel like with my personality, I guess I just assume that if people are watching your old stuff, they understand that you're young when you're, when they're, when you're making that version of like, so therefore it's like, well, yeah, of course it's not as good. Let's hope it's not as good. Let's hope it's worse, you know? So I don't know. I don't know if I feel that embarrassment or whatever. Like there's some videos of me in high school that Scott and I made watching like, this is so stupid. Like, this is not funny to anybody. It's so funny to Scott and I made, watching them all, like, this is so stupid. Like, this is not funny to anybody.

It's so funny to Scott and I, but like, this is so stupid. But at the same time, I don't know if I would be like, don't watch that. Do not. Don't. So, that's fun though, time.

That is fun daydream. Look at my channel. I still have all this stuff up here. People feel free to comment any ideas for time and types of videos. Sure. But also, just make whatever you want.

Yeah. Make something you're excited about or just keep doing Friday pickleball stuff. That's fun too. Yeah. Or just make Jake stuff. Yeah. Um,

shoot. What else was I going to say? Should we do a wins of the week? Yes. Great. I'll start. rachel as we speak is currently doing a little uh job interview her first uh job interview for the next semester so it's really exciting i'm pumped for it last she prepped so much for this uh which was really proud of her i was like i don't know if i i know it's a big deal but i still don't know if i would have prepped

all of that like as as she's writing down and note-taking and trying to be prepared for everything. Late last night, it was like 10 p.m. And I went and put a suit on and gave her, did like an hour-long fake interview with her. A little mock interview? Yeah, yeah. That's fun.

That was fun. I saw that interview reel. I was like, I wonder what he's dressed up for. Oh, really? That's fun. The turtleneck with the suit is nice. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh.

You know, I think that's how they do it. That's how most principals dress. Chet Holmgren. Mm-hmm. And principals, yeah. And principals at elementary school. So that's fun. That's exciting.

I'm excited for Rachel. Let's go ahead and say she got it. I think she's going to. Oh, Jake, how could you? Jake! Now she's not going to get it. Oh, man. this podcast and this prediction that's not gonna come out till next monday yeah i wouldn't have said that decision of the principal and people might post about it on the facebook group what the heck what the heck well What the heck? Well, hope you like Rachel being home all the time.

So, win of the week is Rachel getting an interview and probably crushing it and it probably going well. And hopefully the opportunity to finally work and be done schooling. Yeah. That's all she's done her whole life. Ever since you've known her. Basically. Yeah. Wow.

It sounds like it's a really good school that she likes. Yeah, she's excited about it. Good district. That's awesome. Principal dress is weird, but otherwise, it's good. Just kidding. I'm talking about me. If you're listening, I'm talking about me.

I'm talking about me and the turtleneck. They send weird people for mock interviews, but besides that. My win of the week is my church. I think specifically, I mean, not specifically. The whole, it's just a really healthy, wonderful church that we've been really blessed with. But really specifically, the pastor of our church, I would encourage anybody that wants to and that is looking for quality sermons to listen to his audio on podcasts

or whatever, Lenexa Baptist Church. I mean, he's just – I'm convinced he's one of the greatest pastors that I know. That's awesome. Worldwide. Like, just he's so good. Every single week, I just convinced he's one of the greatest pastors that I know. That's awesome. Worldwide. Like, just, he's so good every single week. I just feel so blessed. And every single week, I'm like, I just got to tell more people about this. People got to come listen to this.

So check him out. His name's Chad McDonald. Shout out to Pastor Chad. C-Mac. Big C-Mac. Do you ever feel this way? Because I feel very similar about our pastor. I'm like, man, his teaching is so great.

And then you bring someone there and he's not preaching that day. And you're like, that's not the same guy I was this way. I feel very similar about our pastor. I'm like, man, his teaching is so great. And then you bring someone there and he's not preaching that day. And you're like, that's not the same guy I was talking to. Yeah, sure. I had to do that recently. And I was like, dang it. I just talked him up. This is somebody else. This is the missions pastor.

He's a great guy. He seems like he's a good dad. He has gone on like six mission trips this past year to Nicaragua. Tell you a lot about South Sudan. Yeah. The guy has a hearticaragua. Tell you a lot about South Sudan. Yeah. The guy has a heart for ministry. Part of a lion. No, I mean.

He's not the main pastor. Truly. And I guess in the same vein, like I emailed my pastor recently and just said, thank you. And I had been thinking about doing that for a year or longer. And I always just thought like stupidly, like, oh, I'm sure he hears it all the time. I'm sure he doesn't, he doesn't need one more email to respond. Like that is stupid. So if you're out there and you're thinking nice things about somebody, you should tell

them because who knows how often people think the same way of like, oh, I'm sure, I'm sure that Tymon knows he's a good singer. So I'm not going to boost his ego anymore or something like that. So anyway, just a huge blessing. He knows how to just bring the word. And it's like 95% of it is just literally talking about the Bible, like talking about God. It's not like, let me tell you all these illustrations and stories and sprinkle in, oh, that verse kind of connects. It's like, yeah. I mean, it's just the guy loves, you know, preaching the word of God. And it's a huge blessing to me.

So that's my win of the week. It sounds like our pastor as well. It's great. Yeah, dude. It's awesome. Time when you got one? When? Right now.

Yeah. Just whenever you're ready for it, buddy. I said, when? No, right. Hurry, hurry. The clock is ticking. i know you i know you went to the bathroom and so you maybe think that this pot hasn't been going on that long but like we don't know you take a dump in there we could smell it what the heck what that oh

what the heck boiling what the heck uh probably besides like going to la was super fun. What is this? This is your... Win? Right now. Right now, dude. Come on. I hit a new mile PR. Yo. It's like California air. Tommy texted me this, and I need to see it happen. I don't not believe it. I just need to see it.

I think about time of life right now. The last thing about it is it's never planned. I simply... I was like... So this run now. The last thing about it is it's never planned. I simply, I was like, so this was Thursday, like my flight, like we had to go to the airport like Thursday evening and like I was like, I had so much stuff I was trying to like last minute get like prepped or whatever.

I was like, I just, I got to get my mile in now or I'm never going to get it in today. So I just like hopped outside and started running and I just happened to start running like pretty quickly and I was like, well, I can't just slow down that's kind of lame I just kept on going I was like hey maybe I can beat my record so I did how did you feel like were you super tired afterwards or it didn't hurt quite as bad as the other PR just wait till you're 30 but like it was definitely painful yeah and what was the time again uh six minutes 34 seconds whoa baby that's what I'm saying I'm

like timing I will start off like i don't think about time i'm like all right i'm gonna start off pretty good pace here look down on my watch and it says 7 15 pace like so time is going faster than this the whole time how is he doing this i don't so i just need to see it he's young man i'll show you sometime you you you're not complaining about it but you're thinking it like how does he do this man i must be 30 i am crazy old man i am 32 years old that's awesome that's a good window i thought you were gonna say sub sub seven but i didn't think 634 634 is moving on so very impressive thanks what's your like average you think at nine what i mean like eight to nine no way i usually run because that's that is quite a difference comfortable because like i don't want to yeah Nine. What? I mean, like eight to nine. No way. I usually run.

That is quite a difference. I'm comfortable because I don't want to be in constant pain throughout unless I just happen to be like, okay, I'm going to push through this time and really get a good time. Typically, I'm just like, I want to be a casual run. So it's like, yeah, eight and a half minutes or so. So would you say like zero to 100%, how much were you pushing yourself that entire six 34, 95% probably honestly. Really? I mean, well, like just like maybe with, I think with

the right amount of pressure and the right amount of like stakes, I could, I could run like a six minute mile. I bet. Cause if I can run a six34, there's like on my road at home, like randomly with nothing to like push me forward necessarily, then surely I can run six minutes. Yeah. I will say some of my fastest miles, which I'm still batting a thousand. Rachel and I haven't missed a day yet.

My fastest miles are when I'll give Rachel like a 30 to 45 second head start. And it was kind of always chasing her. Always helps a little bit. Yeah. So you need that. That's Devo right there. Like there's something in the distance. You just got to chase it. It's like dog races. We have a little bit yeah so you need you need that i think that's devo right there like there's something in the distance you just gotta chase it it's like dog races we have a rabbit in front of you that sounds like a good analogy that i didn't know about either no problem i i think we've talked about this podcast uh rachel and i want to do a track and

field day sometime this summer big event with our friends and i really want timon versus rachel's dad and what in a mile but timon uh i think rachel's dad only has to a mile, but time in, uh, I think Rachel's dad only has to do three laps and time has to do four. I was going to say, you have to lap them secretly. Like really?

Okay. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That'd be fun. That's just one of the many activities we're going to be doing. Time in versus Steve coop,

just time in versus blank. Let's just do time. I just run a light. I run like 18 miles. Time in versus hamster. We'll recreate that. I'm not sure if I can run. So you so you can i don't know if i could run like more than two separate well i mean with enough time in between i could probably what okay but it was my first mile would be the mile race this is the

this is the chess versus boxing thing like uh you you you were taking a dump when we talked about this you run a mile with with steve uh-huh you get eight minutes to talked about this. You run a mile with Steve. You get eight minutes to recuperate, and then you run a mile, total mile, against Daddy. You? Against me. There you go. Because I'd be walking some of the two.

I'd be, yeah. You'd be gassed. You'd be rough. You'd be gassed. That would be fun. I did run in Branson. And then third mile, you run against Bo. Okay.

So I run a 5K, but it just... Yeah. Yeah, I'm just getting progressively... That'd be kind of fun. That'd be awesome. I did run two miles nonstop in Branson because several of the guy friends are like... They run.

They do track and stuff. So yeah, my friend Isaac runs like... We'll casually just wake up and run like 13 miles. No way. It's crazy. So that was like nothing for him, but it was going from one to two is crazy hard. Well, I bet if you wear those super short shorts,

you'd go faster. It seems like those guys that are real into running are just like, are you even wearing underwear under those things? I'm looking. I don't see it. I will say I think I run faster in shorts, though. You just feel like more of an athlete in shorts.

For sure. Yeah. Yeah. Like a nice 50-degree day. It's like barely shorts weather. I don't know if I was in shorts when I ran my last PR. What the heck?

What the heck? I need to put some shorts on. I'll get a six-minute mile. Speaking of clothes, I do want to talk about rowback. Not only because we're wearing it. I'm wearing it all over. Row the back. Pantolones. only because we're wearing it. I'm wearing it all over. Row the back.

Pantelones. Same, dude. Tops. I think, so by the time this comes out, it's happening this weekend, but filming my next comedy special, thinking about throwing a rowback on up top. Why not? I performed. You look great.

In it a couple nights ago. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I was like, maybe this is the outfit. Just a nice rowback hoodie. It just looks good on everybody. And we're filming a special two different nights. I happen to have two of them.

Oh. And you don't. Like the same color. Yeah. They sent me one for Friday Pickleball, one for Ghost Runners. And so,

you know, you don't have to worry about like really like steaming and getting all the wrinkles out of a shirt. It's just like, this hoodie's just,

it's soft and I like it. It just fits the right way. Yeah, I love it. I love the cowl. What? The little neck. Really? Teach me about this word you just made up. Like, see how it... Well, yeah, it's just like a little

collar almost of a hoodie. Like where the hood meets... Oh, I don't have one. I don't have one. Where the hood merges. Maybe this one actually doesn't have one. Yeah. Where the hood merges. Maybe this one actually doesn't have one. I'm second-guessing myself now. No, it kind of does. What the heck?

What the heck? Good cow. Cowl neck. Yeah. Cowlick. Have one back here. Oh, rubber band. Cowl...

Cowl-stration. No, dude. Roback is... It's amazing. It's... Your stuff's great. Yeah. And we have a promo code for you because your stuff is nice.

Fun. So, by the time this comes out, this will come out the Wednesday. I've already left for Denver. So you can't even give me advice. I'm already gone. Yeah, where are you going this weekend? Oh, this is like Midwest.

Yeah, as of recording this, Nebraska and Kansas. The bus is picking us up at Trey's house tomorrow morning. I'm going to Crack the Pinions tomorrow. Okay. And the bus will just pull into the cul-de-sac and just pick us up, I guess. That's kind of fun, but I'm getting kind of tired of leaving on Wednesday, so there goes my week.

Really? Because even Tuesdays are affected by leaving on Wednesday, you know what I mean? And then Mondays are affected by it, you know. And then Sundays are affected. And the next thing you know, Rachel, it's Tuesday every day, like Rachel says, crash day.

Yeah, man. What the heck? So are you excited to be on the bus, though? You said that. Yes, Katie and Thomas are joining us on the bus this weekend. So that'll be fun. Thomas is crazy cute, man.

Yeah. He's so cute. He's awesome. Like, I want to be like... So smiling. Is he cute or am I just like, is that a good picture? And then every picture I see of him, it's like, dang, that's a cute baby. picture and then every picture i see of him it's like dang that's a cute baby yeah and i saw him in hawaii i was

like that's a cute baby yeah that's a really cute baby so thomas is awesome yeah that'll be fun you're gonna get some you you they call it tummy time sometimes when you put on your stomach you got tommy time dude i might i might get both because uh tom not Thomas, not Thomas III, who is Trey. Tour manager Tom sent out an email today. He's like, hey, here's kind of the rundown for the weekend. Thomas is going to have a, what do you say, baby gate in the bottom right bunk. Like, that's my bunk. So what's baby gate mean?

It's like a side saddle? Or like water gate? I actually don't know what baby gate means for the back right bottom bunk. Well, it is. So you're going to change bunks, I'm assuming, first of all. Okay. So it's not like, yeah, I don't know. I think it's just like, it sounds like that's going to be his bed.

And they're putting up just a wall so he doesn't fall. Oh, you know, I was imagining it like when a motorcycle has like another cart next to it. Like he'll just be sleeping in like a bassinet. Oh, a sidecar. Sidecar. Yeah. For me, that's what I imagine. Like,'ll just be sleeping in like a bassinet. Oh, a sidecar? Sidecar, yeah. For me, that's what I imagine. Like, well, that's fine.

I can sleep. I can sleep with him there, I think. I guess, yeah, obviously not. It's a big enough bus and the turns are not very sharp on the highway or whatever. But is there ever a time where you're kind of like,

whoa, is it a baby? Oh. Yeah, I don't know how much goes on in the middle of the night because you're even if you are waking up, you're kind of out of it. So you never like find yourself on one side of the bed. Like, yeah, I've never like rolled out of it or anything. Most of these drivers know what they're doing. So that's so fun.

So, yeah, you're going to literally like sleep right by Thomas. Yeah, he'll be in our midst. That's fun. So be a fun weekend and got some friends coming to the Topeka show. I think Harrison and Abby Pollard didn't get to come to the first Kansas City show, so they're coming. Brother-in-law Joe, new friend Joe, he's coming to the Topeka show. That's good.

Got some friends coming to the Nebraska show. So it's going to be a good weekend. Excited to see you guys. Maybe Henry and I will just pop over. Henry Elephant. I haven't showed him the state's capital yet. This is where bills become laws. Let's wrap it up with our comment of the week. Yes.

Yeah. My comment, I'm not picking one. I'm just saying the comment of the week is the overwhelming support from the Ghostrunner community. Oh, that's nice. There's about a million. I mean, I think we had over a hundred comments on YouTube and 50 some posts on the Facebook. Who knows how many, like just so many kind words. People texted me, people DMing me. People, so nice, so supportive. So supportive.

And so I just, yeah, just thank you in general for all your congratulatory texts and whatnot for Henry. And just, yeah, just the kind words for Catherine and even kind words for my mom and dad making a great, you know, little cameo for the beginning of the episode last week. So Catherine and I last night, actually, I like mirrored my phone on the TV and we just like looked at a bunch of the YouTube comments.

Oh, that's fun. Catherine doesn't like look at the YouTube comments ever. And so, yeah, just fun to see those together. So just know if you posted it, we've seen it. We appreciate it. Yeah, it's just very, very awesome to have all these strangers in some sense, but also friends in another sense, say so many kind things. And, um, so yeah, that's great. My comment of the week comes from Andrew Thurbush and he commented,

uh, after last week's birthing episode and said, uh, time, it just advanced two grades, uh, during this episode. Uh, that really made me laugh. That was funny. Yeah. There, I walked in on Catherine listening to the episode yesterday and I heard us

singing ring of fire and I was like, I wonder what time it's thinking about. So anyway, time you got to comment. Uh, I guess not specifically just loving all of them. Yeah. It's so fun reading them.
