Happy Monday, everyone. Welcome back to another episode of Ghostrunners, episode 36, baby. We did it. Yep. We were really adamant when we started this podcast about getting to 36. So we'll see if there's one next week, but this is primarily where we wanted to be. Brad, I want to start a podcast. I'm like, okay. Brad was like, what are your goals? Like, where do you see yourself? Can we make it to 36, you think? I was like, that's all I want. I want to get to 36. After that, we'll see.

But this episode is a special one because we have our first guest ever with us oh baby here in the workshop of ellis custom creations he's wearing a long sleeve ellis custom creation shirt let's go because rad will never stop plugging till the day he dies uh even if it's our friend's chest here with us. And our friend is Garrett Perkins. Yes, yes, yes. It is an honor to sit with two friends. And I've been, I've told Brad from day one, it is absurd that you guys are finding people to pay to advertise for their livelihood. It's amazing. You guys just talk to each other. Because what nobody knows here is that we just spent an hour and a half,

at least, doing exactly that in the living room. Yeah. And we just decided to move it from the living room to a nasty bench that has sawdust everywhere. Glue, yeah, wood glue. And people are paying. And not only that, I heard you said someone that they binge listened for 18 hours. 18 hours straight. That's

very wild to think about. I love you guys. I would hate you after 18 hours. I couldn't listen to myself for 18 hours. No, you listen to yourself 24 hours a day. So that's not true. Not 24, but you don't sleep very much. So yeah, but honored to be here. Really excited to be here. My wife is big fan of this podcast. So she sir. She is running a marathon this next week and I'm hoping that this will help her. So Emmy Jo Perkins, congratulations.

You're now famous because there are 100,000 listeners on a daily basis, right? That's about where you're at? More or less. 136. More or less.

That's what we said. We round up. You think we can get to 136? I was like, yeah, I think we can get there. So Emmy will now have the blue checkmark after this. Emmy Jo Perkins,

at Emmy Jo. I actually don't know what her Instagram handle is. But she's there. She's on Instagram. And she's running right now. As we listen to this, she's running. Literally, Emmy. First half mile.

Keep it going, baby. I think every 10 minutes or so, we'll just throw in a quick like, go Emmy! Come on! It's going to be worth it. Yeah. I know Garrett's not there in person. And he just decided to be on a podcast instead of surprising the person. Better? Better? Maybe? It's going to be worth it yeah i know garrett's not there in person and he just uh you know decided to be on a podcast instead of surprising the person but better better maybe it's gonna be worth it yeah you're good you're doing it you're doing it no yeah we've been uh she could listen

to us for 18 hours depending on how slow her uh i mean if it takes 18 hours don't come home just just quit just go to sea world find a new hobby it's not running i'll take you to boxing class with me but yeah we basically as gar, we basically, we've probably been talking for over two hours at this point, just catching up and arguing a lot. I'm actually going to play a snippet right now of our conversation right before we started rolling. What? Because you dog, dirty dog. I actually don't even remember what it was, but I remember thinking this is funny that we're not even like on the podcast yet and having this conversation. So I capital L love, I love fireworks. Fireworks suck. So episode 36, uh, Garrett's here. Garrett, I guess introduce yourself a little bit.

What do you do? Where do you live? How do you know Brad and I? Uh, yeah, I live in Fayetteville, Arkansas, Northwest Arkansas from California. Went from California to Texas, went to the greatest university ever, the Baylor university, who today is a brutal day for Baylor University. Yeah. Our head coach, Matt Rule, has decided to go corporate, so to speak. So he got six years, 70 million, something like that? Yeah, he just left Baylor and now he's coaching the NFL, which at one moment I was mad, but then I go, would I do the exact same thing without a shadow of a doubt?

Yeah. $60 million, I think. Yeah. Yeah. There's a price tag for everything. And I think there's no doubt if there's a price tag for it. You don't have to recruit. I could probably pay you a lucrative amount of money to do something really dumb. And you'd probably do it for the right. I would even, I mean, this is going to sound crazy. I would even coach football for $60 million. I would do it. I don't think anyone would pay you to do

it. I don't even have to think about that. I would definitely do it. Yeah. Without, without a shadow of a doubt. So in your introduction, basically you're from Baylor and you're very like money hungry. That's kind of what I got out of your introduction. Like I love money. My name's Garrett. Yeah. That's a good, I'm from that really rich private university in Texas. And, uh, it's a good segue. And I think money is great. I think money is better than everything else. I do anything for the right price. It's a good segue of me being money hungry too. Then I also worked in full-time ministry for seven years. So obviously- But he got out of it to- I'm really so corporate now. To chase the corporate dream. So know these guys from the CannaCuck world, obviously, because we're Christians. Hello.

Yeah. Right? Yes. Thanks for checking in. Good. Brad, still Christian? Yes. As far as my... Yeah. Cool. I'm a little worried about Brad's answer. We'll pray for him later. I'll double check. I wasn't as confident as far as my yeah cool i'm a little worried about brad's answer we'll pray we'll pray for i'll check i'll double check i wasn't as confident as i was hoping loom fable arkansas and then i'll do my free ad for givingtons because they asked if i wanted to do an ad advertising for givingtons and i said no sorry i'm not gonna pay you guys to do that uh which

sounds like i should because sounds like the people that pay you actually humble salt is murdering it they're killing ordered humble salt not yet but you will i might you were just talking about how you're a big foodie these days it doesn't matter it's worth them paying because is murdering it. They're killing it. Have I ordered Humble Salt? Not yet. But you will. I might. You were just talking about how you're a big foodie these days. Perfect. It doesn't matter. It's worth them paying because we're talking

about Humble Salt right now. So Humble Salt Co., you guys are doing it right. So they tricked me. That's good marketing right there. I work for a place called Gibbington's. We work in the publishing world.

I do business development for them. That's not important. But these guys are two of my favorite people in the world. Love to get to sit and chat with you guys. You have three kids?

I do have three kids. Thank you. Good, Brad. And a wife. Thank you. Yeah, I do. I have a wife. We already talked about her.

I got three kids. I got a six-year-old daughter named Hadley Jo Perkins. I got a three-year-old son. His name is Riker Maddox Perkins. And then we got a 12-month-old, which is, I just say one. I don't know the month thing. Terrible. Once they turn to one, I'm like, I'm done with months're good. Yeah. 18 is where I've seen like people kind of draw the line.

Once they're 18 years old. Yeah. Yeah. Stop counting months. How many months are you at 18 years old, Jake? I bet Jake can figure it out real quick. 18 times 12 is it's going to be 180 times two times 36. So 206. Sure. 206 months. I'm not going to fact check it. Sure. 216 months. Dang it. It's okay. We forgive you. It's 216. But then I got a one-year-old named Banner. So three kids, they're an absolute blast. We never sleep. And that's just, that's just the reality. So honestly, Jake, you are ready for parenthood. Am I? Yeah. Cause you, you're already on the parent's sleep schedule. Oh, okay. Great. Great. Great. I was thinking of what it takes to make a child and I got nervous. No, no, no. You no, you gotta know you don't worry about that

I got to figure out is how if you could lactate and if you figure out a nurse you could you could just Dude one time I saw so you're joking but Weston we be I saw white liquid come out of that man's nipple I don't know if it was milk necessarily and I don't think it it was like pus, but I saw white come out of his chest. I will go one farther. I had Jackson Bell, seventh grade geography, Miss Kelson's class. He looked at me and Quinn Stevenson, his best friend,

and said, I can lactate. And I said, there's no way you can lactate. Quinn then went farther and said, if you can lactate, you lactate every day and I will drink whatever you lactate at the end of the year every day he lactated or something in a water bottle all year long and then at the end of the year quinn stevenson drank it and he threw up on the spot that is the most california thing i've

ever heard in my life it was you had it you had a man doing something a woman's supposed to do and then they organically produced a product and someone else drank it that is was there a way to know that is so gross where the liquid was coming from where it was like he would bring it from home and he's like no you washed oh no that's just milk no no we literally he massage i mean he massaged it he did the whole did the whole thing so it was impressive no and disgusting that is rough okay okay good to know well here we are an option i will say one thing about uh your daughter one of my favorite things to do with your daughter every time i've seen her which i've seen her four or five times in my life oh yeah i saw this in

person this is fun yes uh and i've done it since she was like two maybe three years old and i do it every year every time i see her she doesn't seem to remember which is great but her name is hadley joe perkins and i always pretend to mishear her like and so she'll be like oh haddie joe perkins and she'll just get so like she has like this attitude about her she's like no not haddie joe hadley joe and i'll be like oh hadley bow perkins and you know and i'll get so close and she just gets so frustrated and then we'll do the same thing for reicher oh yeah reicher loved it the last one yeah reicher couldn't reicher just he it was blowing your comedy oh yeah blowing his mind oh yeah low beard entry for six-year-old and three-year-old comedy which is why which is why hattie thinks you're for the funniest man in

the world but she's never she's never found the humor in it ever since like she's always just rolled her eyes every time i've done it no not hattie so anyway i saw this go on for probably 10 minutes plus at that wedding like it just kept going i was like one of them's gonna quit you know brad's gonna think this isn't funny or anymore or i think joe's gonna catch on or something but no because i kept trying to think about what are different names that i can say that are similar which on that note we probably like luke crenshaw should probably pay at this point. Cause you guys have referenced Luke and Courtney's wedding like 30 times. It was a really, really good trip. Really? Apparently it was a really fun one. Yeah. Um, yeah. So something that happened today, which I thought you guys might get a kick out of, I had a, uh, freelancing gig. I was shooting videos for a company that uh does fundraising for high school sports

teams they go in they talk to coaches and they help the students and the student athletes like make money for their football team yeah humble salt right no you were thinking of digital resource this is uh something else though okay and um so it's very simple I'm just basically setting up a tripod and a camera while they're doing like training videos today. Go, Emmy! Oh, oh. Shout out, Emmy Jones. I really, that scared me. I like locked eyes with you

and I didn't know what that was for. Okay, I get it now. The marathon. That actually, I was like, what is wrong with him? This is good. This will guarantee that Emmy does, that she will listen to this entire podcast as long as Brad, that's your job brad

okay okay just yeah any moment you free reign on that that's great uh sorry i interrupted no that's fine it's you know if the story's going on a little longer that's kind of your cue to like hey i'm getting bored i'm gonna scream my subtle yeah so for this training video they're having to do some like role playing and so like one of the head guys for the company is going to he comes in the room as like the guy who actually works for the company acting like he's going to pitch this head coach. And then another guy who works for the company is a little bit about your football team. And this guy did four 30 minute videos today, making up facts about his football program, about the class he teaches, about his athletes, about their fundraising needs. It was like I was watching Wayne Brady and Ryan Stiles. It made the most boring like freelancing gig of my life be so entertaining because he's like, so tell me a little bit about your program. He's like, well,

we got this junior running back and all you should see him run. He, he is just a quality guy and a good kid too. Good kid. And like, what are you doing this for? Like, this is not even the aspect of the training video that anyone's going to get anything out of. It was awesome. And this guy is very like older guy, salt of the earth, like not a theatrical guy at

all. And he would like, it was just really entertaining to see him, you know, he'd be like, so what could, you know, if you were to use us, you know, you had an extra $5,000 for a football program. What do you think you'd buy? And he'd be like, oh man, $5,000. You're kidding me. You're kidding me.

No way you could do that for me. Well, I could buy me a lot of chewing gum with that money. And he'd like go on. He's like, let's see. We got right now. We got three squat machines. You know, no, we got four squat machines. I forgot we got one last April.

And just like the detail he's putting into it. All of this fake. Yeah. Like he's making all of this up on the spot. After the first 30 minute video, I was like, I got to ask, are you, did you used to be a coach? Like, is this from a real experience? Are you thinking of something in your head?

Yeah. He's like, no, just been, been doing this a while now. And, uh, it was awesome. It was truly amazing how much information he made up in the like two hours I spent with him. And it made me like, so what I was doing while this is happening is I'm taking the question from the guy and like trying to make up my own answer of like, you know, well, what kind of businesses are you selling to now?

And like, this guy's coming up with stuff. Well, you know, one of our wide receivers, mom's Julie's barbecue. You know, that's what we do. Great barbecue joint. Yeah. It was awesome. I'm know, that's what we do. Barbecue joint. Yeah. It was awesome. I'm like, I gotta get this guy on the podcast. Their ribs are a little dry, but their chicken's real nice.

It's like everything had a specific detail to it. Wow. And so like I complimented him after every video. I was like, dude, that was awesome. And it started as a joke and then it got more and more serious. I was like, have you ever like acted anywhere or done anything? He's like, nope. Just been working in high school sports a lot.

Wow. So episode 37, what is fun for you guys to roll out is going to be Coach Bob, right? Yeah. It's going to have Colin from Fundraising University. It was awesome. Yeah. I should see what he's doing next week. We should have a whole episode where we just interview each other and ask questions and just lie the whole time and just embellish it the whole time. And see if you can remember the story. Yeah. That'd be really impressive at heart i think it'd be very difficult to do for that long i think i've seen that on jimmy fallon don't they do a game where they just have to make up a story like from start to finish yeah yeah it's literally what

they have i think like the writers on jimmy fallon go i don't know this because literally my wife and i who's running a marathon by come on amy there you go get there keep going baby you're doing great left right left right left right yes don't trip. Yes. Don't trip. Don't trip. Don't trip. They literally like they interview, the writers interview the guests before and they get like, it's like two truths and a lie. And they open the card and it'd be like me open the card and I read it to both of you saying that when I was in seventh grade, I watched my friend lactate. Oh, yeah. And then you guys could then interrogate me.

Correct. Asking the questions and going, oh, really? Okay. So what was his name? Well, his name was Jackson Bell. Uh-huh. Well, okay. Oh, yeah.

Jackson Bell. Great. Like who else? That's fine. It's Miss Kelson's class in geography. Keep going. What else do you want from me? Yeah, yeah, yeah.

And then at the end, you have to vote if it's a truth or lie, which is a really, like watching some of these, because it's either actors or musicians. Right. And Jimmy is, I mean, Jimmy Fallon is amazing. Yeah. I mean, I've been to the show twice. He's unbelievable. Yeah show twice he's unbelievable yeah but uh he's like the worst at it because he breaks character i don't know if you watch him on s but i

wonder if that's part of his act oh if it's like if it's inception like i think that i've watched it one time and i thought both actors kind of did that like they both like seemed like they were making it up but since they're actors you're like maybe because they're yeah making it so obvious you're thinking so much yeah this is a lie okay yeah yeah it's like throwing in ums and uhs you're like well i thought it was a true story but now they're saying um and uh like yeah because jimmy's breaking character a lot laughing and stuff it's like is he really laughing or is he yeah is it all part of it either way that'd be a fun podcast game maybe next week we can come prepared with some fake stories and see if everyone's telling the truth or not you just you should you both of

you should do that constantly just throughout the podcast you just start telling the story one time and then like we'll just know none of us will ever know as your listeners what's true and what's not about true like just just like all of a sudden you make up elaborate things that's what people love about our podcast is that they think that we're really fake like people say it all the time like i love how you guys just don't seem like real people at all like they love the inauthenticity yeah yeah i love how fake you are and you're like you're probably not even a woodworker i wish i could show you a picture of this but he's definitely a woodworker i know everything you guys say is made up but it's still fun it's entertaining there is no frills to this woodshop at all let

me tell you uh hopefully we keep saying this, so I don't even know why we say it at this point, but because you guys don't care. It's more just for me and Brad. Hopefully a new studio soon. We'll see. I have plans. Well, I wrote out my week like day by day.

Wow. I think this year. New year, new Brad. Yeah, I guess so. Yeah. Well, no, that's kind of how I always am. Oh, okay. But still, it is a new year.

But I put it down on there yeah get the top of it done this week so hopefully we can figure out the top of the desk and start start with the new studio do you always start with the top of something or like the top of a for this it's going to be more complicated to do the top than the bottom the base we're talking woodworking right yeah yeah uh oh were we okay yeah yeah well a hamburger i always go like the whole thing at once um i don't i don't go like top bun um you know meat or anything like that no smart what if it's a lettuce wrap lettuce what if it's a lettuce what do you think who do you think i am have you seen brad how many times you think i've had a lettuce wrap i have had a few

but first of all i'm like i get when i go to in and out i'll get a double double and then i'll get a single on the side with the lettuce wrap because I love the crunch of it. See, we don't have as much experience with In-N-Out being from here. None of my friends could lactate growing up, so it's kind of the same thing. You got a frenzy to that. The superiority complex. I didn't know that they even had lettuce wraps.

There's a secret menu in In-N-Out. Oh, really? I'm getting ahead of myself. We'll get to fast food at some point. Okay, okay, okay. The idea that you get a lettuce wrap on the side of your other burgers is like the people who will get half Dr. Pepper, half Diet Dr. Pepper. It's like, oh, it's healthier.

It is. That's what you're doing. Yeah, yeah. 70-30, baby. No, it's healthy. And mine's not even much for health. It's more of like, because I mean, if you ask my wife, Emmy Jo, you need to come on this podcast next, maybe on episode 37 and share my diet.

Love it. Oh, man, it's terrible. That's why I love these guys we don't we might not have much in common but man our eating habits and drinking habits drinking soda habits yeah yeah i mean the fact that you've had a lettuce wrap like you do have a better diet than me but it sounds like he's having a lettuce wrap because he wants a little more food it's yes i'm wanting no that's i get it it's not out of like health it's out of like i want more, but both those buns puts it over the edge. Yeah.

It takes up too much space. I'm like, no, no, no. But you don't want to double or I guess quadruple or whatever. Yes, exactly. Because then it's too big. And honestly, In-N-Out's lettuce has some of the best lettuce around.

Oh, really? It's so crunchy. Literally. Crunchy lettuce. Great lettuce. Okay. Better than Chipotle's for sure. You think you know country.

Oh, wow. You think you know country country oh wow you think you know you think don't country lettuce i'll tell you what i'll go to go out and about and have their burgers what's it called what's it called inside out what is it now anyway okay i have a fun scenario for you guys a uh something to answer and i actually have never answered this question logan cleaver shout out asked me this at dinner last night and I didn't even answer it to him because I was like, this is great podcast material.

I'm going to save it. So I don't even know my own answer. Here's the scenario. You were given a 24 hour heads up that 24 hours from now, the entire world will know that there has been a $10 billion bounty put on your head.

So everyone is going to be trying to kill you in 24 hours. I'm done. I'm not everyone, but everyone has. I'm done. I got a tummy. I'm not gonna be able to hide. I'm not gonna hide. I'm a dumb. In 24 hours, a lot of people will be trying to kill you for $10 billion. Okay. But after 48 hours, you're free. Like it's over.

Do you get any prize for lasting? You get to hug your wife who just ran a marathon. You get to hug your kids. You get to survive. Okay. Is that not enough of an incentive? I haven't even got through all the details yet. It's going to be a lot of work.

I mean. $10 billion? How confident are we that after those 48 hours, people are really going to know? Also, if I kill myself, does my family get my money? Oh. There's no. Wait, what do you mean? Oh, like life insurance. Well, you said there's a bounty on my head. If I kill myself, does my family get my money? Oh. There's no... Wait, what do you mean? Oh, like life insurance.

Well, you said there's a bounty on my head. If I kill myself, do I get the bounty? Oh. And does it go to my family? That's no fun. No one's killing themselves in this scenario. Don't be that guy. Okay.

So 48 hours to survive from when it starts. However, the last hour, the 47th hour, your zip code is made known to everyone. So not your exact GPS location, but your zip code. Okay. And then you only have one hour to survive after that. And then you're good. Then no more bounty. You're immune. Did you ever play 007 GoldenEye James Bond on Nintendo 64?

I did. Why do you ask? Two words. Proximity mines. You're done. Bring it on! 66216! Get on your feet! I dare you! Especially if you're Odd bring it on 66216 get on your feet i dare you especially if you're especially if you're odd job you can hide in yes i will odd job it up get right down like get underneath the surface about 20 40 feet proxies go ahead come on yeah okay out there okay so do you have an answer first because i jake you've you've had longer to think about this so i need well i

purposely didn't think about it. I will be honest. I don't know what my answer is. Why would your answer be any better than proxy mines? Well, I'll be, I know this is going to come as a surprise to you, Brad.

I don't know where to buy proximity mines. I don't even know. I don't even know the first place. How much time do I have? 24 hours. You have 24 hours. Oh, sure.

You go to Missouri. They got Southwest Missouri. You know, those guys got some proxy. Those are down the Ozarks. Yeah. They have proximity mines and meth. Yes. Plenty of both. Plenty. Yes. And well, okay. You guys got some proxy mines. Down the Ozarks, yeah. They have proximity mines and meth. Yes.

Plenty of both. Plenty. Yes. And, well, okay. You trade one for the other. The type of person who is really needing $10 billion might want meth, and it could be like a Hansel and Gretel thing where you lead them astray with a little meth tablet here, a little methamphetamine here.

Next thing you know, they're right into the mine. Okay, but anyway. Okay, let's say you did go to Southwest Missouri. Who do you buy a proximity mine from? You go to Craigslist or what? No, no, no. You just go to like the side roads, the back country roads of the Ozarks, man. I'm telling you.

And then what? You get them and you put them in. Hey, I need a mine. You put them in your, yeah. You do the money. I know you know me because in 24 hours, you're going to want to kill me. You do the mine call.

Who's selling you the mines though? Who? No one is. Billy Bob. Not when he can get 10 billion for killing you in 24 hours. Well, he doesn't know. He doesn't know yet, right? kill me you do the mind call who's selling you the minds though yeah no one is no bob not not when he can get 10 billion for killing you well he doesn't know he doesn't know yet right he's gonna sell you defective minds because he knows do they know no they know oh no oh no brad's right they don't know you have 24 hours okay okay but they don't know game changer game changer okay here's oh here's where i would go i think i would go i would immediately i would find this most

skilled marines there are. And I would then, I would haggle with them and going, okay, we're going to fake my death with you. And then you need to protect me for 48 hours and we will split the winnings. I will take $500,000. This is a really good answer. Take $10 billion and just protect me. We're going to the most remote island possible. Whatever we need like i'm calling and then i'm also calling uh an investor that has money to help buy whatever

kevin o'leary from shark tank probably which i love kevin o'leary might be my favorite really of course yes yeah mr wonderful yeah okay yeah absolutely mark cuban though mark you know well that's true my wife is so mad at it because she hates kevin and she loves mark okay which reverse she's a mark girl reverse poultry of the week for emmy uh-huh she used to hate mark cuban but after watching him long enough she now loves mark cuban emmy keep running you're doing a great job don't stop quick uh shark take thing sorry to interrupt you're doing great on this answer i'm gonna give you more time to think about it because it's really good uh i've kind of started this running joke in our new house with isaac as my roommate uh one day isaac trey was over we were editing

something and isaac it was like 10 a.m so it's kind of like trey and i were just starting to with Isaac as my roommate. One day, Trey was over. We were editing something. And Isaac, it was like 10 a.m. So it was kind of like Trey and I were just starting to work. I think Trey and I both thought Isaac was about to go to the garage and start to work. And instead, we just hear the TV flip on. And he starts putting made the joke. I was like, oh yeah, his parents made him a deal. If he didn't go to college and wanted to pursue his own business,

he just has to watch Shark Tank like three times a day. It's his homework. And I think it's a pretty funny joke. So I kept rolling with it. And so Isaac today was watching Shark Tank. He's like, I'm doing my homework. And I was like, good. Give me two sentences by the end of the night about what you learned.

All right. Yeah, give me an essay. MLA format, please. MLA format about a sales technique you learned today from shark tank so he likes it and uh yeah i think it's a pretty funny concept of a 18 year old striking to deal with his parents like i don't okay i'll watch shark tank deal yeah i will watch three episodes a day university okay uh now we're back to the answer garrett go yeah i to finish it off i i don't i think that's i think that's enough i think for 48 hours if i could, I don't know how many guys I would need, but

obviously remote Island. And then we're splitting the winnings and I'm taking very little. Cause like you said, enough for me is seeing my family again. I'll run with the rest of my life because I have my life. That's great. But I will, I would take a little off the top, but for 10 billion, I mean, are you kidding me? I could find 10 guys. How are you going to prove that you're dead though? That's not my job. That's their job. they what if you what if they they're sold they're sold out they fail what what if they fail fail what i'm proving my death yeah and then you got a bunch of hours runs out yeah it only has to like last for two days that's exactly where i'm going i think where you're gonna have trouble is the dental records how do you fake those yeah you gotta yeah i gotta

bring in a dentist a dental marine yeah that's easier or harder than proxies i love that we've already abbreviated them to proxies yeah because that's like that now has a dual meaning oh yeah yeah oh there we go idea you guys ever seen the prestige no great movie yeah okay well i'm gonna ruin it for you a bit here brad and i'm ruin it for everyone else yeah if you haven't gotten around to seeing the last 15 years print out seeing it. So the prestige one It's a movie about magic. So it's kind of called this works And or a magician. It's not like no one's casting spells on each other It's a movie about a magician and you don't pretty much the whole twist is you don't know the whole time that

Is it Hugh or Christian? Christian is a twin. You don't know the whole time that Christian Bale has an identical twin. So everyone's always trying to wonder how this magic trick works and then find out, oh, he's making himself reappear because he's got another one of them. So I would be sending a proxy of myself, a triplet, if you will, but a twin. That's just kind of a fun pun for me and everyone else in the world

to appreciate when it's all said and done. And I clone myself. Because I know there's ways. I just saw the Netflix show Living With Yourself. You go to one of those Korean spas and they can figure it out. Yeah, but there's going to be other things that come. Not like a Robert Kraft spa, but like a Paul Rudd spa. Just to be clear.

Robert might be listening and you just offended him. Oh, Bobby Kraft. Have you guys seen Living With Yourself? No, I've heard about it. Okay. So one funny thing in there, it's a spa where they're supposed to just clone you and like revitalize you and like make you younger better your personality's better you're healthier everything's better and he finds out about it because this guy from work is just all of a sudden on fire and he's just like the man and he finds out he went to the spa so paul rod goes shows up

to the spa and he's like kind of sketched out about it. Like this doesn't look like the kind of place, you know, where you're going to get cloned and all this and out walks Tom Brady. And, uh, I've seen that clip. How much of that cameo? How much did they pay for that cameo?

He's like, uh, Tom Brady could tell Paul Rudd's nervous. He's like, first time. He's like, yeah, he's like you,

he's like six, which is perfect. Six Superbowls. And Tom Brady claimed that that had nothing to, like he had no idea that that would be linked to the joke with Robert Kraft. Yeah, right. Tom Brady also threw a pick six

to end his career with the Patriots. I don't know if he's all there right now. Oh, man. So just to be clear, you think that getting proximity mines in 24 hours is unrealistic, but cloning yourself in 24 hours, no big deal.

I'll find a Korean place in Kansas City that'll just clone me. And his answer was a Korean spa. You want crone? Okay, we crone right now. No problem. Go, baby! I think I have Crohn's disease.

Yeah. Oh, you need help with crone? No, no, no. I poop fine. I want another one of me. Oh, no problem. Like Dolly. Brad, what's your answer?

The lamb that they cloned? Proximity Minds is your answer. Yeah, two words. Proximity Minds, baby. Okay, okay. So I understand now you made a great point that mine might have been pretty unrealistic, but I'd still like to ask some follow-up questions

on your Proximity Minds. Good. So let's say you buy 25 proximity mines. What happens after the 25th person comes to your zip code? How do you know I have 25 mines? I don't. And are you willing to risk it? Thousands of people.

Are you willing to risk it? Oh, you're saying like I'm the 30th guy in line and I've seen 29 people get blown up. I'm not picking up the bodies. I'm not hiring, you know, the trash service down the street to come pick these up. I'm leaving them there and saying, you see those guys? You want to be the next one? There might be more.

Come on. That's pretty intimidating. I wonder that same philosophy, like when I've got mousetraps, I kind of like to leave the dead one out for a while. Absolutely. So maybe the other ones could see it. Like, oh, this house is not safe. Look, that's Jerry.

That's Jerry. He's dead in that mess. We got Jerry over here. Let's go to the next one. Go to the next one. They don't got traps there. Yeah. 25 is fine.

I think. I mean, how many people would it take for you to see dead on the lawn before you're like, yeah, I don't think this $10 million or whatever it was billion 10 billion yeah it's 10 billion it's gonna be a lot i'm there's gonna be a lot of people risking a lot of desperate people or like i'm just gonna go for i'll try to jump over it like yeah i've avoided all this dog poop in my dad's yard for a long time i can get around these proxies like when the lights are off in my house and i'm too lazy to go to the light switch i can like walk my way around pretty easily i know where where the credenza is. I can go around it. Here's the person who is getting through that proximity mind. Sorry, proxy minds, if you will. It is the parent that has a house

and their kids are asleep, but their floors creak and they've learned every, or the 16 year old that has snuck out over and over and over again. There are the spots on the floor that, you know, when you step it's, I'm far right. Then it'll let, and floor that, you know, when you step, it's eee! It's a no, no, no. I'm far right, bend to the left, and you know, those people, you don't want, those people,

you're done for with those people. And there's, there's a lot of sketchy 16-year-olds that are trying to make out with their girlfriend at two o'clock in the morning that are, you know, get through those proxy mines.

Oh, I know tons. What's up? Oh, uh, yeah. Let's move on, guys. Sandra! Shh, don't name me! No, no, no. Uh no uh that was a joke everyone uh it's been done a lot in movies i copied it that's not even my joke what is it uh i know a bunch of 15 year old girls

that could kick your butt you know a bunch of 15 year old girls what belt are they yeah the office does it and i think it's happy gilmore or he's like happy g Gilmore is when he's like, I eat crap like you for breakfast. Yeah, pieces like you for breakfast. You eat pieces for breakfast? Yeah. Yeah. Anyway, we might need to pause for some sponsors now. So if we found some, then here they come.

Garrett's still here, still wearing the Ellis Custom Creation shirt. Okay. You see it? I have something to talk about. The other day I was watching a bowl game, football, and it was sponsored by Redbox.

Who in the world is still freaking using Redbox to the point where they can sponsor a bowl? Oh, yeah. That's like a seven-figure deal, I'm sure. Yeah. Redbox? Tell us how you really feel, Brad. I'm just saying, why, why would I go? Let's say, let's say best case scenario. McDonald's is usually where I think red boxes are at. Who has the, probably the best Dr. Pepper most of the time. A hundred

percent. No, no doubt. But why would I go five minutes? Let's say five minutes away to go get a movie, take it home with me from red box, take it back again. That's a 20 minutes altogether trip where I can do the exact same thing on iTunes for a little bit more money. And who, who's using blu-rays these days. Anyway,

even if you, even if you like have red box and you go like no one has the con are you putting stuff in your console anymore no i'm using apple tv i'm using all digital it's all digital these days baby why you need red box is this how normally works you just sit and let them go and this is like when brayden left as a voice memo it's like that same thing where i'm just gonna get out of the way like like i saw it like how the heck does redbox sponsor this bowl no that's a good point what are they who is using like when was the last time you used redbox oh anybody uh we last funny story on redbox shut up you and i use it emmy's laughing emmy you are probably like she's laughing hysterically right now because we bought a redbox

on a road trip and you will do it because one day you're gonna have a you're gonna have kids you're gonna you have kids yeah i do you can do it you're gonna have kids someday i believe you i believe you um but literally we were driving and emmy had we had to get a movie for the long drive so she got it at a red box so that we can put it in that's the only time that you use a physical dvd without internet yes without internet and need a quick fix uh and of course guess what happened when emmy bought the red box you lost it no we own it because we waited too long to return it and how far away is the closest uh mcdonald's i would oh mcdonald's i know exactly like 1.2 miles 1.2 miles

and you won't return it red box man we own it now yeah so we know we now own the movie so that's that's where red box makes their money so it's a it's probably a brilliant business model going well i'm gonna bank on the laziness of america yeah to check this out for one dollar and then they're gonna pay 25 for this unbelievable i saw one time 25 25 yeah i know oh my gosh that's ridiculous there was a uh you guys know the website quora no yeah it's like uh yahoo answers but for intelligent people it's it's fun i've that's why thanks that's that's why i don't know it thanks jake that's awesome that was really really really smooth way to say hey you're dumb so you won't know this almost any college educated person has probably heard of it well i went to baylor so uh so you know there'll be questions

on there like you know what was the worst part about the holocaust and then like a living holocaust survivor will answer the question it's just really fascinating you know an astronaut is telling you what it's like to see the earth from space and you know you're not getting people spelling pregnant 19 different ways wrong and the kind of stuff you with yahoo answers all that to say someone one time asked a question on there and said why does it seem like red boxes aren't necessarily that conveniently located and someone like a former staff member at red box was like we used to do that because we want you to forget we want to make it just convenient enough to where you could to where you could rent it because it's oh it's at walgreens i don't go to walgreens all the time

but when i go to walgreens or when i go to mcdonald's it's on my mind enough to like maybe get it but it's not somewhere i'm going every day and they're not frequent enough to where oh i can easily return this right now so that, we are uncovering something deeper here, baby. Yeah, oh, speaking of that, Mattress Firm, we talked about that like 20 episodes ago. I think I know exactly, oh yes, yes. They're going out of business a little bit. I went to Chili's today, buy my old house,

Mattress Firm is no longer there. It's just Scrubs and Beyond. Just Scrubs and Beyond. Which also cannot be doing well. That's all you're selling? Oh, Scrubs, dude? No, no, and Beyond. Yeah.

They sell Beyond as well, so. That's like the laziest name for a store. Just like, we definitely sell scrubs after that. Who knows? Candle wax, watermelons, seedless and seeded. We sell shower curtains. Yeah, it was a doctor that moved and they're like, we have so many freaking scrubs that we need to just start it.

And I'm going to start a business, but we don't know what it is yet. So let's just do scrubs and crap. You know what? I have these toothbrush brushes over here too that we could sell. Okay, scrubs and beyond. It's beyond. We're good. We don't know what it is yet so let's just do scrubs and you know what i have these toothbrush brushes over here too that we could sell okay scrubs and beyond it's beyond we're good yeah we don't know the focus yet so let's just go wide wide reach here you say and beyond you can do whatever you want after that yeah anyway retrace it back mattress firm not looking good retrace it back red box how do you feel now ridiculous yeah i there's no mattress firm bowl why is there a red box bowl? Are you sure there's not? No.

They change every year. Not at all. But yeah, red. Was it a big bowl? Like were there good teams? Yeah. I don't remember.

It was big enough. I mean, it was like, it probably, it probably held like one and a half bowls of cereal. Hmm. One and a half. So we talking like, let's say what cereal?

Yeah. Cheerios or like frosted mini weights. It was very different sizes. Salmon toast crunch. Uh, CTC. Middle, middle. Yeah. Kind of dot question. Okay. Got it. talking about let's say what's here yeah cheerios or like frosted mini weights it's very different sizes salmon toast crunch ctc middle middle yeah kind of question okay got it so medium-sized bowl i guess let us know give us a five-star review and let us know what you think about this red box yeah last time yeah leave us a five-star review with the date and title of the last red box you rented i'll tell you mine right now it was i don't know the date but it was hancock by will smith oh did you did you return it on time i definitely think i returned it i don't

know about on time just go ahead when you leave that five star review i would also put in there did you return it on time or do you now own this movie because i would you will be shocked i bet how many people own it yeah i believe you movie this is not going to surprise you guys at all but when i was roommates with peter casey i would find red boxes that he now owned just like in my clothes or like in the shelves or in the cabinet like just finding red boxes all over the place he owns a lot that's so frustrating so that's a good observation red thanks man yeah i was just like who the heck is doing this and why yeah maybe today's downloadable world. It doesn't seem like something that can last that much longer.

Yeah. Unless they're like, I mean, yeah, maybe there's a whole different entire pocket of people not like us that are red boxing all the time. Like maybe gaming is a big aspect of red box that we don't know or understand. But can't you download games these days? Yeah. It's all on. Yeah.

Game shark is also a thing that you can do it now. game shark can hook up into your it's like a netflix yeah or steam don't know that one just trust me it's popular yeah you know you know like computers and stuff yeah i know about computers um gary you're checking your phone seems like you got something to tell us what do you what do you have to say here well golly well i when i was driving up cold here i uh was thinking man okay man, okay, if we're going to, if we're going to do this, I need to at least need to be a little bit prepared. So I just sent, as I'm driving, I do this quite a bit. I've done it multiple times to Brad. I've sent text messages after listening to podcasts like, Oh yeah, that's a good point. But have you thought about this?

Have you thought about this? So we've talked about it. Yeah. There are a couple, there are a couple of things that I want to revisit from prior episodes. one, of course, Brad and I are very similar. Little backstory on me and Brad. I knew his wife first. I knew his wife as Katherine Hansen. One of my favorite people in the entire world to mess with. And she's just really fun to get riled up. So if you ever come to Kansas City, Kansas, as I learned, I didn't realize that was such

a big deal until I listened. It's not to anyone else but Brad. Really? Really? Kansas City, Kansas. Yeah, Kansas. As I learned, I didn't realize that was such a big deal. So I listened. Thank you. It's not to anyone else but Brad. Really? Really? That is not true, Jake. We're not going to talk about that right now. Never?

Okay. No time. There's no time. There's no time. But so if you ever come to Kansas City, Kansas, if you want to have a good time, just ask Catherine Hanson, now Catherine Ellis, about what translation of Bible she reads. Catherine, you're welcome. But I want to revisit a couple of things. First and foremost, I would love to talk a little bit

more about just soda as a whole, because one thing that we all have in common is that we understand that the salt of the earth is the Dr. Pepper, and also just soda in general. It's the sodium that's in the Dr. Pepper. That's the salt. Yes. That's good, and there's a lot of it. Actually, I don't know because I've literally never read. Yeah, that's why we like it so much is because we are so like ignorant. It is bliss. It's the epitome of ignorance. So the you guys call them the what the vending machines, what do you call them? The free the Coke freestyles. Yes, the Coke freestyle machines. You, Jake,

you appreciate them. It's the only place you can get vanilla Coke via fountain. Okay, I was going to say, I can get it. No, I'm sorry. It's the only place you can get Coke with vanilla in it. Or if it is vanilla. We're not going to call it vanilla Coke. Whoa, whoa, whoa. What is this?

We're not going to call it vanilla Coke. Why not? Because it's Coke with vanilla in it. It's different. Vanilla Coke from the can. You cannot, without a shadow of a doubt, vanilla Coke from the can is like manna straight from heaven. Vanilla Coke from those machines, every time it's different. coke from the can you cannot have a shadow of a doubt vanilla coke from the can is like manna straight from heaven vanilla coke from those machines every time it's different i just want consistency all i want in my like here's the deal i'm in in fast food

everything as a whole i all i'm asking for is consistency i'm i'm okay but not being quality i just want to know what i'm getting on the front end So it's like a good referee or a good umpire. You can have a big strike zone, but just be consistent. Even if you're not even the best umpire, I know beforehand what I'm getting when I walk there. Those, those machines, you don't know what you're getting. And let's be real. It's happened to me many times specifically at payways because they must have some brand deal with those machines. You wait 20 minutes. Yes. I was just about to say, have you ever been in one where you go straight to the thing and you don't have any line?

Well, because they only have one because it costs $100,000 to get all these machines. Firehouse sub, snow is there. It's just you. Exactly. But even if there's one person there, there's too many people. And the worst is you get behind 72-year-old Lucy

who has no idea. What do I do with this? They're still using a flip phone. They don't know how to use a touch screen. It's maddening. So then I ended up having to help her. Yeah. And then at that point, I'm just, my drink is completely wasted.

I'm just angry. You're done. Yes. It's Coke with vanilla flavor, Eugene. I know it's confusing. You know what? You know what restaurant has these? Wendy's, Burger King.

No, stop it. I'm looking at Brad. Guess what restaurant carries this? Tell me. Burger King. No, stop it. I'm looking at Brad. Guess what restaurant carries this? Tell me. Qdoba. Of course. Of course they do. Get out of here.

Garrett and I are very pro-Chipotle. Stupid comment. Chipotle. Stupid comment. Chipotle. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Qdoba.

So those vending machines, I just wanted to- I appreciate you. I just wanted the listeners to know that that jake is a professional you know he just he does podcast videos all the above but like brad brad brad has a social science iq here on this vending machine thing that i just appreciate i think listeners i feel like brad gets a bad rap because you what by who people hate me man no no people send me hate mails they say i gotta bounce you on your head the jack black guy sure yeah jack sure jack black guy and yeah so i was thinking uh chris farley for bread uh so i just want maybe a little bit of grog from the goonies or chunk

you know he kind of looks like chunk uh with with this a sloth guy what's his name yeah so i just i appreciate that and then secondly uh one of the other things uh just just fast food as a whole so i'm gonna pose a question to both of you okay um just one i think there's multiple categories of fast foods i think you can't just go fast food because people might put chipotle in fast food which is absurd it is you just can't compare there's tears there's tears totally tears so i would love to i don't think we have to go into the depths of it because that's an hour and a half long podcast in itself but i would love to know let's rank if you like when it comes to value for your dollar and chipotle is not in there no no value value for your dollar if you're

going like i got to get the most out of this oh this enjoyment is a part of it yes so there's a spectrum what fast food place are you choosing and let's go ahead and rank them if you want but oh there's comes to mind there's an obvious number one obvious number one for brad ellis is taco bell five dollars right you you'd be a five dollar box jake's not eating all that five dollars i guarantee you that there's no way you go anywhere with jake you get half his meal it's awesome that's why you go to eat with him yes it is awesome you're brilliant he's like way. You go anywhere with Jake, you get half his meal. It's awesome. That's why you go to eat with him so much. Yes, it is awesome. You're brilliant.

He's like, yeah. I don't even ask him anymore. I just start eating his fries. He knows when I'm done. Yeah. He sees that in your face. Thank you. I think it's a no-brainer.

The Taco Bell Cravings, one, their marketing department is unbelievable. Yeah. Because they are constantly innovating. And not only that, innovating for the same freaking seven ingredients. They're innovating, yeah, but not really doing anything different. And they just package it differently anything differently, but it is so good. And I, and I'm sorry, obviously you can tell I'm passionate about this. I'm so sick of people telling me that Taco Bell is disgusting. Who says it? All people who eat cauliflower. Yes. Oh, don't even get started on cauliflower. Flaxseed, chia seed. Yeah. Bone broth. It's the stomach people. Yes. Oh yeah. Those stomach. Yeah. Those

stummies. Yeah. They got, but the, the people that It's the freaking stomach people. Yeah. Those stummies. Yeah. They got. But the people that go, oh, Taco Bell, it's not even real meat. One, you don't know that. You just say that because you read it somewhere. Second of all- I can confirm it's real meat because I'm allergic to it and Taco Bell don't make me feel too good when I get the meat. Pizza rolls, not real meat. For anyone, I can be the judge for you on what real meat is. That is gold. And secondly, when people go, it's not real meat and it's so disgusting then my response is great well then they call it's a rat meat well great then i like rat meat yeah then rat meat tastes amazing give me some more rats yes exactly i don't care yeah there's probably take the one from jake's trap that

he's like letting out jerry it's his name is jerry yeah so like it is by far i think the best deal yes because you get quantity and also you get pretty good quality when it comes to taste. I'm not saying, like I'll be the first to admit, it is terrible for you. Sure. I'm like, I'm not saying-

We're not arguing. We're not health people. We never claimed that. But quantity and quality. Yes, I think Taco Bell, hands down. Jake, I would love, but obviously you can't, Taco Bell's tough

because there's the chicken and Taco Bell, I mean, it's- I don't, I've never had it. Me neither. I literally, I've had it twice okay it's because they got my order wrong okay so what's happening to jake yeah that'll happen so when you first posed the question i was thinking in my head that taco bell would be the top of my list if the question was best ratio of food to weight because for five dollars you can

get five pounds of food nowhere else can you do that chip's close, but it's like $9 for four pounds. And that's still like twice the difference. I've literally never weighed my food. So these are just estimations. Okay, great. I know you're good at math, but like that's impressive. Although, here's the question. You guys ever weighed yourselves before you poop

and then afterwards? Neither have I. So Taco Bell is great for value of weight weight i would say not necessarily quality of food i think for me top two of like what was the initial question like yeah price to value value for your dollar but quality is a part of the conversation so for sure yeah yeah so i would say probably maybe mcdonald's because i think mcdonald's is actually like pretty good food okay for how much it costs then chick-fil-a then taco bell because the quality of chick-fil-a i mean i know it's expensive but the quality ranks it up like the quality pushes it above a wendy's four for four if you will yeah yeah the wendy's the wendy's four for four is a is a great

deal yeah it's like and also wendy's burgers people don't talk about when these burgers when these burgers are legit yeah when these burgers don't go there enough to have a huge opinion uh but yeah they're fine the four for four is fine doesn't doesn't fill me up i'll say uh mcdonald's you get i always go there and i get a mcchicken for a dollar yep i get a large drink for a dollar and then i use their mcdonald's app if you're not using it best app you're a fool fool if you're not using it you're probably also going to red box afterwards so you're not returning You're moving. Run, Amy! Come on! So you use the McDonald's app every single week. They have a $1 McDouble every day.

Unbelievable. $3 for a McChicken, McDouble, drink. If it's a Friday, you get large fries for a dollar? Large fries. Friday. Almost every day you get large fries for a dollar. Throw in Parent Hack. A lot of them have play places.

Kids obsessed with McDonald's. They will kill a McDonald's cheeseburger. They won't touch other cheeseburgers. Really? They will murder a McDonald's cheeseburger. And I'll go one further. For all you people that hate McDonald's and say it's nasty, I have a firm confirmation from a guy that literally runs a high-end barbecue place in Northwest Arkansas, Wright's Barbecue, probably best barbecue in Northwest Arkansas. He used to work for Tyson. Tyson made a deal with McDonald's and McDonald's quarter pounder with cheese is now using Tyson like sponsored or some

sort of like meat that is legitimate. He said it's better high quality meat than a lot of the like mom and pop burger places in Northwest Arkansas. So I was like, I was already sold, but now you're saying to me, I can now argue that it's good for you. Now, obviously I don have any facts but i don't need facts to argue so it's fine no that's a good anecdote though i like that two things one the way you worded uh your kids going to mcdonald's was uh very scary for me you said they love the play place and they go in there and they would kill a cheeseburger thought it was gonna be like another child like they would they get in there in the back where no one could see him and they do- The ball pit? No one can see when you're underneath. Yeah, my three-year-old drowns kids in there.

He holds his, no, honestly, Riker, if he heard me say that, he'd be crying. He's like so sensitive. He would- Ryder, Ryder would? Ryker would, yeah. Oh, Ryler? What is it?

She's going, oh, Brad! Stop! It's not my name! Oh, madly. Second thing, I have a counter argument that I think is based on facts, but I might have made it up. So we'll see. We'll never know.

My dad works in the food industry. I was asking him a question about, uh, what's the name? Oh, Popeye's. I was like, from your knowledge, like how are they running out of these chicken sandwiches so often? Like, do you think they are mismanagement or marketing? And this is the part i'm like did he tell me this or did i read this or i'm pretty sure what he told me is they are they their supplier for chicken is tyson and tyson themselves is like pretty mismanaged and like all over the place and like even it's

like a one of the largest chicken distributors in america can't even keep up and they're not like a very good company, so to speak. Interesting. On Northwest Arkansas side, living in Northwest Arkansas, like a lot of people would take offense to that, Jake. So hopefully you're Northwest Arkansas listeners because Tyson is like- They're mainly German and Taiwanese here. Yeah, they'll kill you. So it's fine. So Tyson, yeah, just ignore this whole segment. But apparently people love working at Tyson. But that's all I know. Yes. I have a friend whose brother-in-law works at Tyson, loves it. There you go. Moved to South Dakota to work at Tyson. There you go. See that's all I know. Yes. Have a friend whose brother-in-law works at Tyson, loves it. There you go.

Moved to South Dakota to work at Tyson. There you go. See? I got a lot to say about Tyson chicken apparently. Mike Tyson. I was actually watching, this is going to sound like I'm just making stuff up now. I watched like 30 minutes of Mike Tyson highlights on YouTube the other day. That's because you're a boxer.

30 minutes? He's a boxer. No, it's absolutely because of that. So I'm like, no one is teaching me how to box properly and I keep missing my left hook. So maybe if I watched some Mike Tyson highlights and I saw the hangover, I think that's what clicked it. Okay. Anyway. Anyway, what else you got? That was a lot of stream of consciousness there. When it comes to faster to just food in general, I would love to know your guys takes on leftovers as a whole. Are you leftover people? When you go

to a restaurant, are you like, Hey, let's get a little bit more like Brad, you seem like the type of going, Hey, we can get a little more out of this and we can take this and that's lunch for tomorrow. Oh, I, I will never leave food. Like, yeah, I'll never be like, Oh no, I'm okay. I don't need a box. Like if I, if I have enough for a box, I'm taking it. Now, how often do you actually eat it though? Cause that's so 95%.

So Jake, same question. What, what do you guys think? What kind of leftover guy do you think I am? I think you leave it. I think you're like, I'm not putting, I'm like, I'm going to leave it in my car. There's no way. Absolutely. Yep.

Yep. Yep. Very, very lazy and just don't care about food that much i know it seems like i do but i like fast food because it's easy because i'm lazy see and this is where i this is why i'm i would say i'm just such a nice little blend hybrid of you two because love it jake this will encourage you thank you one day for marriage and parenting like you can still have the same habits you have and actually find a woman who actually wants to raise children with you you can find a woman jane yeah because but but you don't change is what i'm saying this is good this is don't change don't change one bit because i hate

leftovers really oh okay i i let me phrase that i like eating them if they're already in my fridge but the idea of going like i want to take this home with yes for some reason it feels such a burden on so you go burn on them i don't care about burdening people uh it's more like no no no that's me oh yeah me yes you yourself jake jake burden former vice president because the amount of times i've left it in my car oh and then it's just high heaven and it's just not it's not worth it it drives my wife crazy she's like let's take that home like i'm not taking that home and there's a little bit of if i'm honest there's a little bit of my high horse here that's like, we don't need a leftovers. We don't.

Hey, we went to Baylor Bay. We don't need those. I have a, I work a corporate job. I don't own my own business. Maybe back when I was doing ministry. I'm not doing podcasts for a whole week.

You know what I'm saying? So I, there's a little bit of that need, but if there are leftovers, are we a reheater? Or are we, I'm eating it cold and if so what's worth reheating and what's better eating cold eat it cold no no i'm saying i'm saying you have to be outside of your mind oh thank you i was like what are you talking about sorry i my tone

was eat it cold like why are you even making that an option yeah okay yeah you didn't look at my eyebrows my eyebrows were saying question mark this is perfect because you are both 100 incorrect you eat stuff cold leftovers unless it's pizza there's no chance literally i will i literally spaghetti that's why you're that's why you don't appreciate leftovers i should too because no when you heat it up and completely change the molecular balance of that no not if you use the oven use the oven oh now you just i could have made three meals the amount of time you had to reheat your freaking here's the deal run at me indian food and chinese food almost better cold than it is hot there have been multiple times when i was there's no way that's my way i would go i would go to panda

express and i would order two meals. And I would eat one there, and I would take one home so that I could eat it the next day Just said you didn't like taking leftovers home. When I was single. Now you're going out of your way. We have a psychopath on our podcast right now. This guy's insane. Who is this guy?

He's at Panda Express. Hey, I'll take a chicken teriyaki chow mein, and then I'd like one to go. Do you have anything? Just leave it frozen. I know it's all frozen anyways. Don't cook it just hand it something out of the back maybe that's falling on the floor i have a i have a friend who his son is i think he's he's not quite two yet or maybe he is two yet they call him mega baby this kid is massive he's like nugget baby mega baby oh that's better like mega baby and uh i saw a video of his son likes eating frozen

meatballs this kid is going to be an absolute champion he's going to be a linebacker for sure just absolute destroys frozen meatballs he's gonna need that fourth squat rack for sure so that's okay so like that's interesting that neither of you like like i don't think you do this is this is the same this is the same thing as like little croy dude no you don't truly like cold food but you just don't like the process of heating it up first of all do not reference an argument of mine without any of these listeners hearing the integrity of my argument about LaCroix because you took it totally out of context.

We don't have time to address it. Secondly, ask my wife. Emmy, you're doing a great job. Keep running. Ask my wife. It drives her crazy. I'm like, oh, no, don't reheat that. I'll eat that cold.

I love that cold. And honestly, it's a Perkins family thing. All my brothers do it. My dad does it. No way do you like it more. I wish we could call Charlotte Perkins right now and put her on the pod because she would confirm i believe that you do it i just don't believe that you truly like it i know i do like it and don't tell me what i don't like don't tell me my you walk into the kitchen you walk into the kitchen you got uh that's what i was gonna say

a scenario one hot one cold yeah you got a plate of reheated chipotle reheated chipotle want it cold i mean it cold i mean 100 no 100 i'm eating it cold. Shut up! Get out of here! No, 100%. I'm eating it cold. You're kidding. No, literally 100%. Okay. I'm not saying warm Chipotle made there. Reheated Chipotle and cold Chipotle from the fridge next day?

No, no. I want it cold. If you guys have an opinion on this, please leave us a five-star review and let us know. I know I'm never coming back to the podcast anyway, so if your listeners aren't here for me. Oh, you're definitely coming back, baby. Getting all the crazy stuff out now. That's bold. I like it.

This is good. Fast food, obviously we could talk about that forever, but I know that there's a lot of female listeners that have not realized the enjoyment and the wonderfulness of fast food, so we can move on. So that's what I have. Thanks for indulging me in that.

The main thing I got out of it is that I don't ever have to change to find a wife. Not even a little bit. No. I can stay exactly the same. Why would you? Yeah. This is very exciting for me.

Good. Good. I'm glad. If I offer one thing, that's what I want to offer. A little encouragement. Pre-marital advice. Okay. I have an idea.

I'm ready. Let's bring back ringtones. Okay. Back in the day, you could define so much about your personality by your ringtone are you saying uh like let's say brad ellis text me you have a specific specific tone or just like phone calls um probably just phone calls okay text message that'd be a lot of ringtones but you do that but you could do specific ringtones for specific people i like that it could be like a custom thing like it just says it's just brad's voice for just like a second when he texts me maybe it doesn't have to be a

full song see i think he's oh okay you're you're thinking songs too because yeah uh this again i i came to this podcast thinking i was i was more like brad but i think jake you know there's a reason we're sharing a microphone right now and we are very close uh which i mean we're not that close i promise uh guess what my ringtone guess what artist was my ringtone in junior high junior I never I didn't have a cell phone in junior high I got my ringtone was it Jesse McCartney beautiful soul no great that was a great guess I did go to Jesse McCartney concert yeah he did uh Justin Bieber one less than the girl no okay this is about

what there was pain relief no literally see pain by your drink. Uh-huh buy you drink by see pain I like just just the beginning the snap the fingers and do the still hey you can do it all by yourself Yeah, and then you answer yes. Yeah, cuz you want to answer before it's a buy you drink It's a dr. Pepper from McDonald's my promise. I promise. Charlotte, it's Dr. Pepper. Good dodge. Good dodge. That would be fun to bring back ringtones. I think so.

What would your ringtone for Brad be? Ringtone for Brad would probably be No Diggity. Great. I like the way you work it. No diggity. I like to bang, bang it up. Yeah, that'd be a good one. I like that.

You would start kind of grooving like this. But the problem with that is you, here's what's interesting, this would happen all the time. You would let your ringtone play out because you want,

you're like, oh. And then all of a sudden Brad's like, or Jake's like, oh my gosh. I got blackstreeted again. Okay, Brad, same question. What would Jake's ringtone be?

For Jake? Gosh, I'm bad at thinking on the spot. No, you're not. Yeah, I am. You have a podcast. No one's ever at thinking on the spot no you're not yeah you have a podcast um no one's ever put me on the spot before on a microphone this is we normally just write out everything we say yeah this is a well i'm trying to think like what is the song i think of when i

think of jake oh this is um really deeply you're thinking more about this than i did for you i'll probably say grace so glorious is one of jake's yeah jake really likes that worship song i should really do it he was so glorious by is it elevation it is yeah yeah and there's a million different preachers with sneakers uh you know elevation worship yeah which you guys are pretty much the same as preachers yeah this is the podcast i think which is great preachers and sneakers i love it what you i laugh so much at you putting some of those people on roast it is wonderful and i know you i know you balance that i'm like no i'm not like just you know they're great people too it's awesome it's awesome it's holding people accountable yeah you should see brad i mean we probably need to take a picture of brad shoes

yeah brad's got a cousin who works at new balance and it shows wow i like the way you're working sorry guys we got a phone call we're gonna have to pause the podcast real quick oh no that was just brad singing that's just me feeling my drip you know what i'm saying the laugh after the drip just yeah it doesn't do it for me oh okay that was just me feeling my drip you know what i'm saying way better okay okay way better uh i'm honored that you think of me and the song grace so glorious together because i still love that song you do like it once upon a time quick story for you garrett yes and i guess other people listening because this is a podcast still. I was trying to find this song that was stuck in my head, and it was that song. But the chorus is Glory to Glory, but there's another worship song called

Glory to Glory. And it was driving me nuts. The SEO is not great for this song, because you can't find it, even if you know the words. And I couldn't find it for weeks and weeks and weeks. This is when I lived in Dallas. I come back to Kansas City for something, for some reason, go to Leawood Prez for church, And Brad sings the song. And I was just, I was feeling it. And then afterwards. He had two hands up, jumping up and down. I was running through the aisles, high-fiving people.

I brought a couple of snakes out and I was throwing them on people. Prayer language tongues, prayer language tongues. You should have seen how much was donated that Sunday. And most people, and you can probably chalk it up to the podcast truly began that day. Yeah. Blessings abound. Yeah. No, abound. Yeah. No, there was no snakes, but I, uh, that is a special song.

Special song. It's a special song. It's a special song for you to me, Brad. It's a croning song. Oh man. What were we talking about? How'd we get here? Oh, ringtones.

What would yours be, Garrett? Uh, for if anyone called it, just like your standard, your default ringtone. Man. It's got to go off in public. Golly, right now. Cause we're spin-overs. Tell me don't don't so freak what you heard. Oh, there it is. I like the way you work it.

No diggity. Just the same song again, but more mumbled at the beginning. It's a bridge. I'm a massive Pop 2K fan on Sirius XM Radio. Oh, when I rent a car i have serious yeah that's such a baylor thing to do man yeah i know i know i that's the sirius xm radio is the red box you know most people when they graduate who uses that they hand you a diploma they just they just hand you a credit card when you graduate it's a black card yeah exactly it's amazing it's amazing so

it honestly anything it would be something from that era probably probably in the R&B side. I love No Diggity. Honestly, one of the songs in... Actually, I'm not ashamed to say it. I'm married. I can say it. I love the song Peaches and Cream. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I don't know if I'm allowed to listen to that. I had that on Now 17. Oh, man. Oh, I had so many of the Nows. Peaches and Cream. It's a bump and a bump and a man. Oh, man. It's so good. I love it.

I don't know why I always loved it. Is it inappropriate? Yes. I think that was before Jake was listening to pop culture stuff that was probably Stephen Curry's Chapman time for Jake you were still a Smitty guy and by Smitty I mean Michael W. Smith yeah let's see 2004 was my first year of secular music so if it was before

that I probably don't know about it oh yeah it was definitely early 2000s who sings it uh that's a good question one one one one no no one one six no that's christian uh 311 311 that's the name no 311s of rock band no really you don't know who sings one of your favorite songs that would be your ringtone it was it's a one hit wonder yeah no it peaches and cream i'm googling it right now huh it's gonna come up with like the pioneer woman i did all i typed was peaches and cream first thing that came up it's like uh peaches and cream is a simple dessert 11 recipes 112 it's 112 i was close i had numbers in it yeah yeah you were close thank you one one two one twelve oh sorry yeah way different 112 that's the same as

the other song yeah never heard of that yeah dude Maybe we could play that at the end. No, probably not. Yes. Is it? Yeah. There's parts that are, it's fine. It's an innuendo. The whole song is an innuendo. We don't need to get into it.

That's what every song is. Yeah, great. Isn't it kind of crazy sometimes? Like thinking about like what is and was allowed on the radio. This song, like this is the name of this. So the magic stick, that song that's what's crazy Lady Gaga, I want to take a ride on your disco stick. Oh, that's the chorus. Yeah the candy shop by 50 cent

Yeah, lick your lollipop the candy shop is a flow right now. I'm seeing all these things. I'll blow my whistle, baby Yeah, it's crazy. That's the course. This is the song yin-yang twin Yang Twin song? I mean, those aren't really radio songs. Well, I was going to say, some of those 50 Cent songs, I don't know if they ever made it to the radio. Candy Shop was definitely. Candy Shop was. But the one that you said before that, what did you say before that? Disco Stick, Flo Rida Whistle, I Got the Magic Stick.

Those are all on the radio. Magic Stick, was it? That's where I heard it. You Think My Tractor's Sexy? Hello. Hello. Have you never realized what that song is about? Kenny Chesty is...

Show me on my body where my tractor is. Okay. I'm not sure. We're on video. Tractor, I hardly know her. Nice. Yeah. I just always...

Apparently, I have this deep inside of me. I'm just able to name a lot of songs that... It's just crazy how sixth grade girls are singing these songs and society is just like, yeah, we're cool with this. We're cool with this being massive innuendos that are extremely inappropriate we're the epitome of hypocrites we're like we're great with that side but then on the other side it's like oh my god we want to like we're we want to protect our kids from from climate change let's throw some of the most overtly sexual things in a 12 year old's ear see parent care it's coming out jakes yeah it's like uh we're

gonna stop grading in red pen because it could be a mental health issue for these kids but man that 50 cent song is burning yeah but if they want to go to the candy shop and uh yeah lick the lollipop that's no problem but no red pens no red pens that's where we draw the line yeah whatever it's too aggressive i don't know what point i'm trying to make but um this world's crazy that's the point that's what i'm trying to make, but this world's crazy. That's the point. That's what I'm trying to say. Anyway, on to the next topic. Okay.

I got another one for you guys. I got a question for you because this is something I've had multiple conversations with people about, and I'm hoping all of us are on the same side of this. The beach. As a vacation, how do we feel about going to the beach for vacation or just beaches as a whole? Who am I going with? We love them. it doesn't matter yet doesn't matter yet just the i like i don't like that i don't like that i don't like that you say it doesn't matter yet because it does okay for sure it's gonna it's gonna change the experience for sure okay but

let's just go beaches as a whole fine take out vacation from it like you do you like beaches do you hate beaches do you what's your opinion on just beaches as a whole love them love them why um because i'm from kansas and we never get beaches here uh i like them because they are relaxing they 90 maybe 100 of the time for me they represent warm weather which i enjoy a lot um i like swimming a lot and so you can obviously swim on the beach well depending on what beach oh it's just because you would swim in the ocean well that so okay the ocean is always attached to the beach which i like a lot okay good point good point good point yeah it's correlated together clarity jake that's good sometimes you don't swim in the sand you're right you can swim in the sand you can it hurts you can't you can yeah oh doesn't mean it'll work but you can um it's relaxing

it those are my things okay so far yeah jake so before i even knew we were gonna talk about this here's what i wrote down my notes like four hours ago i said you ever see someone on instagram laying by the beach and you know you're way closer to a Chick-fil-A than them. That's just something that crossed my mind today. Like someone was at the beach and I don't know if it's just because I'm like loving life and today was a good day, but it like, I feel like sometimes you see people on vacation. You're like, ah, that would be nice. Just be laying on the beach, not a care in the world. And I didn't have that thought. I just saw someone like, you know, girl, legs out by the beach, you know, rest and relaxation or whatever.

And I was just like, I know I can, I can get Chipotle and get Chick-fil-A. I could go see my friends. Like there's so many good things about being home compared to a vacation sometimes. Yeah. Oh, and the, and not to do the whole marriage and parenting thing. Cause you're not quite there yet. Not really. Maybe.

Who knows? We don't know. You're close though, buddy. You're're close you're closer than you think you know you are uh-huh it's it's we're praying for you okay jakey jake like you guys have like some girl behind the garage waiting we're like move hey dennis bring her out jake we'd like to introduce you to colleen she comes in yeah wearing a white dress. I know you're, what is it called? I have officiated weddings. That's what it is.

Yes. Ordained is the word. I knew it started with an O. You know that I'm ordained. I guess I don't, but I've seen weddings where you are officiating it. Yes, yes, yes. I assumed. Back to beach.

Sorry. Because this did not go where I thought it would. I'm so sorry. It went a little vague. No, no. But I do appreciate, on vacation as a whole as you start the older you get once you get married and you have kids it vacation is like i heard my parents say it all the time i need a vacation from my vacation yes and that's a real like it's just a real thing 100

vacation is what i asked for the first question on this thing garrett yeah where who am i going yeah okay brad you get it you win okay let, let's just go straight logically because I can't stand the beach. Yeah, I'm with you. So I did. Because just like, we'll just walk through your thing. Okay. What you're just saying. Oh, it's so relaxing.

You can go swimming. Swimming in the beach is not relaxing. You go into the ocean. You swim it for 10 minutes. You look up. You're a mile and a half down the road because the undertow. And then now you have to work your way back or it's all just walk back that's miserable there could be seaweed wrapped around my leg is this a jellyfish i don't know either way i'm freaking out it doesn't matter and the

water tastes terrible because it's all salty and nasty and it stings when you get out sometimes and then you got to get out of the water and what happens when you get out of the freaking water you try to swim on the sand because brad said so and it oh it hurts yeah oh it hurts you get sand all over your body sand is everywhere and your tractor's you know just covered my tractor it's not sexy anymore unless you're kenny chess i mean come on uh but then you go you shower off let's know there's the beach showers you shower off you get in bed that night there is still sand all over the place for four days there's sand everywhere you can't get out of it. And it's maddening. Yeah. I'm a hairy guy. Head to toe.

I mean, literally, it's everywhere. Hair almost everywhere. Sand almost everywhere. Literally, Emmy Jo can vouch for that. Okay. We don't need to know. Okay, great, great. Again, first time, last time, I'm leaving it all on the floor or on the dirty table.

Yeah. And it's just, it's maddening. And honestly, I don't love sweating. I don't love, even if like lying down, like on our honeymoon, like, you know, we went and we said an all inclusive resort. And I was like, no, I'm going to, we're going to, we're going to stay on like the beds, like the outside on the beds. Yeah.

I don't want to lie down on a towel and get sand everywhere. And honestly, the idea of sweating, being relaxing is not relaxing. I've never got that. It's like, oh, let me just like sweat and they're like you're sweating that bad at the beach i sweat i'm sweating like literally i'm sweating now so like i i'm just i constantly okay it's not a good thing if brad is worried about how much you're sweating i'll tell you it's not you're not in a good i'm just saying use an umbrella or like a pop-up or something no but you know it won't matter even umbrella you're still sweating if

it's like if you're at a beach and it's hot, you are sweating. And I just don't want to, I don't want to sweat on vacation. Like I just would rather relax. I would go mountains 10 out of 10 over beach, mountain or beach, mountain, mountain or beach, beach, really climate wise. If it's like mountains in the summer, I mean, mountains in the summer are amazing. Yeah. And we, we grew up, we grew up skiing all the time. So like mountain like mountain honestly if i'm picking i want mountains in the winter to ski but it has to be a hot tub there has to be a hot tub outside while snowing it's just like the greatest dichotomy of all time like that cold beverage in your hand sounds nice i don't want to get too off topic but i think hot tubs by men are overrated

in the same sense that like shark reek shark week is kind of overrated like people like talking about it they like the idea of like oh hotel the hot tub and i don't think anyone actually enjoys them that much except for interesting like a great dichotomy and paradox of like i've been in breckenridge colorado i've had hot chocolate in my hand while it's snowing in the hot tub that is awesome another great dichotomy shower pepsi I used to eat oranges in the shower, which is also awesome. I would love taking a shower. It would drive my wife crazy when I worked for K-Life and she got married and had to move into the K-Life house with me, which was hysterical.

She would like, I had a chair because I love sitting in the shower. I have to be able to sit in the shower. A nice shower sits great. No, I know what you're saying. Are you kidding me? Oh, yeah. What'd you call it? Shower sit. Yeah. Oh, okay. I brought a to sit in the shower. A nice shower. A nice shower sits great. No, I know what you're saying. But are you kidding me? Oh yeah. What'd you call it? Shower sit.

Yeah. Okay. I brought a folding chair. Not a sour, not a sour. No, not a sour shower. Yeah. No, no, those, those aren't good. Sour showers aren't good, but a shower sit is wonderful.

And with a cold beverage, just the dichotomy of that. And I don't know why, but it was always Pepsi for me. Dr. Pepper is better. I grew up on Pepsi, but there's a a nostalgia thing there but i love a cold beverage with a hot thing so i get the dichotomy thing but i love hot tubs like i love me too man me too like so it's a me thing maybe yeah i don't like hot tubs you like hot tubs i can sit them sit in them for all day you'll die if you i go all day yeah all day baby all day you know who else is going all day crab kitchen people emmy emmy you're going all day you Crab kitchen people. Emmy! Emmy, you're going all day! You can do it, Emmy!

Don't ever stop! Emmy, stay out! But seriously, you have to stop because you have to finish this race. Yeah, this podcast is only so long. To take a step back real quick,

I don't know if I ever talked about this on the podcast before. Eating an orange in the shower is awesome. I discovered it one time in college. Orange or tangerine?

I don't care. Cold or warm? Like, cold or room temperature orange? I was about to say, what's a warm orange? Yeah, what are you doing to your oranges to get them warm? You sit on them? You mother goose in them before you get in the shower? Well, he rages everything. All right, you freaks. Cold colder room temperature orange i was about to say what's a warm orange yeah what are you doing your oranges to get them more you sit on them you mother goosing them before you get a shower all right you freaks colder colder room temperature you jerks oh a hot orange on a cool day oh anyway it's awesome i don't care what temperature it is the most random podcast i've ever

done here is why it's awesome i discovered this on accident because i was running late and i pulled an all-nighter and i needed like a refresher while i needed to eat breakfast and shower basically the same time and two birds one yes i ate an orange in the shower and as it's happening i'm like oh my gosh this is awesome think of all the negatives while eating an orange there's basically just two you get citrus all over your hands and then what i do with the peel it's kind of all over my lap those two things gone when you're in the shower you don't notice about them i get one of them yeah oh yeah one of them very simple makes total sense but okay i really hope you do with peel what i think you do so i put it in between my tractor cheeks no no no no here's what i do so the citrus part is great right you don't notice it because you're all wet. The peel, what I did for the sake of time in that instance,

was just put them on the edge of the shower. And so, I mean, I was in college. Made the shower smell good. Yes. So that's it exactly. I come back. Oh my gosh. No, I come back from my-

Can we go shower? No, just mine. Oh, bummer. Just mine. I had my own shower senior year of college. It was awesome. And I come back after my test like two hours later, and it still smells like the orange.

Now, that's not going gonna last a couple of days, but you know, a half day, eight hours, maybe it might smell citrusy for eight hours in your shower. If you lay them out there and your other people you live with don't mind orange peels out, it's the best way to consume an orange, regardless of temp.

You're welcome. Jake, I like that life hack. I like that life hack. I actually like, you spot, I was like, that's really weird, but I love the idea of it smell like yeah that could totally work and imagine discovering this on accident it was awesome i did that with the banana peel the other day catherine just fell right on her back nice mario kart style yes yeah what didn't they do that on mythbusters they like tried to see if they were actually slippery maybe maybe they did we'll

never know i don't know no we will know we can google it no i definitely might have made it up oh what's the topic that we're talking about right now how do we get here mountains oh beaches i never really said how i feel about beaches so i have traveled a decent amount in the last two years or so and i've found kind of what i like when i'm traveling and what it is is being active and being a part of whatever i'm like interacting with so like a beach alone is not necessarily enough for me to have a good time because for one yeah i don't like laying down i don't like being sweaty laying out is it's crazy to me that people enjoy this my mom my sister a lot of money to do that yeah it's crazy because so i love getting in the ocean

and swimming around like i like being tossed around kind of a little bit cuz it's fun Like it's a fun challenge agreed. It's not just a vacation like it like can I survive these some big waves on a boogie board? That's a fun When there's signs that say no swimming locals only and then you and Allie Pav get in there and almost die together It'll bond you. Yeah, it's pretty fun. And then you don't go in the the other Yeah, you learn your lesson. So that's why I like Hawaii so much. It's because it's not just you're looking at a waterfall, but I can now go swim underneath that waterfall.

I could feel the pressure of 120 feet of water coming down on me. I could splash around and I can climb the wall behind it. So anything where I can interact with it, to me, now that I've experienced it, is way more fun. I've tasted and seen that the waterfall is good. And now just a plain old beach seems very plain to me now that i've experienced it is way more fun i've tasted and seen that the waterfall is good and now just a plain old beach seems very plain to me now that i've had a chipotle burrito i don't want to have a peanut butter sandwich or a qdoba burrito sure sure now that i've had a

coke freestyle machine with vanilla coke i don't want to go back to la croix or water water sucks nobody started on how about water is it just does not taste good amen okay i was sick this whole past week so i didn't have any pop and i've pop i didn't have any pop i didn't have any pop yeah cool i i didn't consume pop okay i remember when i used to say pop yeah when i was 12 yeah i'm still wearing a spider-man underwear wear over my tractor I kind of love they're standing on this side of the table too. It just feels even more of an attack on Okay, I didn't have any pop all week I'm not gonna I'm not backing down from the uses of the word pop and I developed a taste for water more

Because you because I didn't have any pop when you're sick. You just pound it cuz you're like I'm gonna flush out of my system Yeah, and now I want water more than I, well, probably not true exactly, but I want pop less. Really? Yeah. So much so that you get it at Chick-fil-A? No. The last two times I've gotten water at Chick-fil-A. That's not true.

Because you were there with him. Yeah. What? You got Dr. Pepper. No, when? No, half Dr. Pepper, half water. When we, when. 70-30. I always do the 70-30 rule. With Dr. Pepper. No, when? No, half Dr. Pepper, half water. When we, when, uh. 70-30.

70-30. I always do the 70-30 rule. With James. Earlier. No, James's brother. What's his name? Paul got me water both days. No.

100%. I don't. Really? I don't know why you think I would lie about this. I don't know either why you're lying about the pop. I'm not. Huh. Can we just acknowledge that you guys don't remember the times because you go to Chick-fil-A.

Which time? Monday or yesterday? Yeah, yesterday. Today, more or less. Today, three. Which one? Because we drank a lot of pop. See, now I'm saying pop.

Okay, Brad. Good job. Pop, baby. Yeah. What do you call it? Coke? What? I grew up calling it Coke.

That's ridiculous. You think pop? Can I finish? Yeah, go for it. It's okay. Thank you. Recognize that. Great.

I recognize that was wrong later, but honestly, because when I went to Baylor university, the greatest place on earth, um, the Dr. Pepper museum was there and I got introduced to Dr. Pepper. Okay. With pure cane sugar because they served it at Vita.

What is that? Okay. It's Dr. Pepper. That is. No, I know what it is. I'm confused why that changed your,

because I thought it was like special and it made me actually like, Oh, I'll try this instead of Pepsi. Cause they didn't have Pepsi. Okay. Uh, in Texas. That's what they served in california but then i fell in love with dr pepper and i was like why am i calling it coke coke is a product so self-discovery took me a

while sure i i don't go back to california so you call it soda i call i yeah i'll call it soda okay soda you know soda's right it's a fine there's no right or wrong what's up pop why because why why is pop right it's not that's why i just said there's no right or wrong what's a pop why because why why is pop right it's not that's why i just said there's no right or wrong but you say it's open yeah i just yeah i'm just i just there's right and wrong there's not man not with this dangerous no pop or soda slippery slope feels slippery to me thank you yeah jake what you don't think that i grew up you're just on that side of the table so i can move over there a little bit yeah you would like that you like that i grew up saying pop and then once i became of age i was like of age this sounds like silly to keep saying pop i kept saying i want a bud light pop and they

wouldn't give me one i became of age are we gonna oh i can't wait to go to the bars and have some pop tonight boys pops are on me. Shot of pop for everyone. Shot of pop. Oh, man. OK, you want to do some voice memos? Oh, snap. Yeah, we're an hour and a half into this and we haven't done.

Well, OK. Yeah, let's go real quick. Let's do we got like two and a half voice memos. We'll do blanks of the week and then we'll wrap it up. Hey, Jake and Brad. This is Abby from Dayton, Ohio. I know that Jake said that he wanted to

do something in the new year to get sweaty three times a week, so I'm here to offer the suggestion of taking a CrossFit class. I think there's obviously there's plenty around any city that you live nearby, so a lot of them will offer a free trial class. I own a CrossFit gym in Dayton, and I can tell you it is the number one thing that will make you sweaty no matter how cold it is outside. Your shirt will be soaked and you'll feel amazing afterwards.

So I challenge both you and Brad to try a CrossFit class and post it to your Instagram story. Thanks. You guys are awesome. Bye. Okay, thank you, Abby. So Garrett definitely has some opinions on this. So I You guys are awesome. Bye. Okay. Thank you, Abby. So Garrett

definitely has some opinions on this. So I think we're just going to let him, let him go. Abby, I, here's the good news. You'll probably never hear me again. And you love these guys, which is great. I love that you love CrossFit. It sounds like you love CrossFit, but CrossFit is the worst thing ever because, and it's not because of the worst thing ever. And it's not because of the workout thing. I understand wanting to get fit and all that. Also, I've heard a lot of people argue that CrossFit is actually really bad for your body as well. But not only that, CrossFit people, it's called the CrossFit cult for a reason.

Because they're like, there is no other thing at this point that can get you to the place where you are. You're feeling so good. It's absurd. And there's like 3% of people in America can actually do CrossFit. And then not only that, Jake, I will tell you right now, and this is my pitch to never do CrossFit. Really? Yes. Because if, well, actually, I'm not, actually you can do it. This is good. Do it and see if I'm right. Or if she's right. Um, she said my body will feel amazing. That's what I feel. There's just so much there. There is literally 0% chance that your body will feel amazing. The only way your body will feel amazing is if you go and do none of the work. If you go and watch and you

will actually, your body won't feel amazing because you'll watch what those people are doing. I'm pretty sure that all the CrossFits, they have like a throw up board that like, that they're literally, it's like if you, you come and like, Oh, he threw up.

Yeah. It was amazing. You literally, it's just like, no, you're going to throw up on your first time. Jeez. That sounds like something that's probably not like a general thing.

Like you think every single CrossFit has a throw up board? I don't want to say every single CrossFit. But you think it's like a common thing? And if there's any of your CrossFit listeners, please give them a five-star review. There you go, buddy. And go ahead and argue against me. That's fine. And you're probably right and I'm probably wrong. But the people that love CrossFit honestly annoy everybody else because they talk so much about, oh yeah, I'm at CrossFit. Oh, and then we went for drinks after at CrossFit. And then this morning at CrossFit and they have their, it's a community, which is on

the marketing side. Yeah. They do a great job. They do an unbelievable job. CrossFit, the business is brilliant. Yeah. How they've done the franchising and all that. I'll respect that as a ton.

But CrossFit people like bring it down a little bit. And also like you're 38 years old. You don't need to have traps the size of like the world's strongest man. Let's be real. Like Jake, Brad, Garrett, we're just trying to be able to be alive when we're 85 sure that's the goal sure the goal for crossfit is to get jacked like it's that's the reality so boxing is a great example of something to do to get sweaty and you're not going to just get sweaty at crossfit you are literally you are going to be sweating from your toes and you'll probably have just residue of throw up because

you will throw if you commit to do the whole workout, I would love to come and see you do it. Brad, if you go, I would love to go and see, you'll just get angry. You'll just get angry because it's ridiculous. It's overwhelming. So yes, I'm sorry. That's all I have on CrossFit, but it's, that's it. That's all. Yeah. Is that, is that it? Are we good? It sounds like one of those things you can make those jokes about like how do you know if someone does crossfit you know don't worry they'll tell you oh yeah exactly classic uh i have never really considered doing crossfit i know that also orange theory they give you like a first free class and i do like the competitive aspect that i think orange theory has it's not as competitive as i'd like because it's not like how good are you doing

it's more just like how fast is your heart beating but i would still like to be the best at that i can i can have the fastest heart i can do that i consume a lot of fat yeah fatty acids yeah yeah crossfit yeah seems more intense than what i'm looking for it's also really expensive both of those are so expensive to do. I think she was saying... The free class. Yeah, doing the free class is great. But like, that's great.

You like it. Okay, awesome. You love it. You're going to go back. But it's just so expensive. I could throw up for free. The more I'm thinking about this. So CrossFit, like a lot of things you do, like you, the thing I think about, and I'm

sure there's so much more than this. Pushing the tire. Moving the tire. Why don't I just, rather than paying somebody to go CrossFit, why don't I just go get hired by a moving company and just move some stuff and get paid for it? Or better yet, why don't I start a gym where I'm the one telling people,

hey, this is a gym, but really it's a front for a moving company and these people are just moving things for me and I'm getting paid for that. All right, we're going to do four sets of my living room furniture, guys. So I'm going to have two of you on the couch, one of you on the sectional and bring it over into this new Airbnb space.

I have it on good authority that Brad is not good at painting. And this week we are going to be painting my bedroom. We're going on fourarms this week, guys. Perfect. Roller all the way to the top. Stretch it out. I don't have any interest in CrossFit because I want to have fun with my exercises.

Then you won't like this. Now, there's a certain person that loves CrossFit and there's the competitive side. I think her name is Tracy in my mind. Tracy likes CrossFit. Yes, Tracy likes CrossFit. Dark hair or blonde hair on three. One, two, three. Dark hair.

Strawberry blonde. Yeah, strawberry blonde. No, no, no, no. That's why you're not on here full time. You got the hair wrong. It's definitely dark hair. Tracy's a dark haired woman. Yeah.

Height. Height on three. One, two, three. Five foot four. Oh! I was a little late, but I was thinking it. I was thinking it. Tracy, they know you so well.

Okay, next. Tracy's favorite color on 3.1. Oh, we don't know that. Yeah, we do. One, two, three. Purple. Gosh dang it. Here's how we'll know who's right.

Tracy, go into a five star review. Yes, Tracy. And we will know exactly what the answer is. You're welcome, Jake. See, I should come back. Yeah, thanks. Let's do the next voice memo. Hey, Brad and Jake.

This is Sullivan from Tulsa, Oklahoma. Long time caller, first time listener. Jake see I should come back yeah thanks let's do the next voice memo hey Brad and Jake this is Sullivan from Tulsa Oklahoma long time caller first time listener so I found the podcast when I started following Jake when he was with Josh Horton just decided to throw that in so I have a couple questions for you um Brad how did you get into woodworking and at what age also what is your brand of cordless power tools I have a question question for Jake. How did you meet Trey? I really love the podcast, guys. It's a staple in my pod schedule. Thank you.

Thanks, Sullivan. Sully! Sully, bro. Hey, party at Sully's tonight. Sully. Let's go. Sully's parents are out of town. Yeah.

Tracy's going to be there. We're going to bring all five four of her. We're going to bring Pepsis from Mrs. Knittler's house. That's right. I was going to bring an eight. All five, four of her. We're going to bring Pepsi's from Mrs. Knittler's house. That's right. I was going to say a 12 pack of pop. Yeah. 12 pack of pop from Mrs.

Knittler's. Getting the hot tub with that nice little dichotomy there. Yeah. Ooh. So cool that you've been following me for that long. That's always fun when, you know, people went from my watching my YouTube channel three times a week to now listening to my podcast.

That is kind of cool. I want to go back and watch some of those YouTube videos of you and juggling Josh. Those were great, man. Uh, you did watch them and not a lot of my friends. I did. I commented. I was, I was very faithful. Uh, I appreciate that. Sullivan got into woodworking. Uh, I've already told it a few different times, but just got, got married, needed a coffee table. That's the two, three word. That's not any window. Yes. any window yes uh a power power tool brand of choice not really uh but if i had to choose i would say ryobi which is like the cheap ones from home depot because that's what i use to get started on and i have a lot of those still but i'm also a dewalt

guy if i had to choose any kind of power tools though i'd go festool of course of course yeah what's the best tool? The Festool. I love their commercials. Festool is the best tool, yeah. Yeah. But they're German, so they say, Festool is the best tool. Yes.

Ooh, your pod listeners in Germany are going to love that. Yeah, they're going to love that. I had a German doctor, and I needed a stool sample, and he said the same thing. Your Festool is the best tool. And he's like, you're healthy, man.

No Jardial for you. What's it called? Dang it. Jardia, you were so close. That joke was about to kill it. Yeah, no, it're healthy, man. No, no Jardial for you. What's it called? Dang it. Jardia. You were so close. That joke was about to kill it. Yeah, no, it was moderate at best. What did he ask me? Oh, how did I?

How did I meet Trey? Yeah, I don't know if I've ever told this story publicly. Not because it's not much of a story. We met through a mutual friend. The timing of it was kind of cool. It was the week I was moving away from Kansas City to move to Dallas to work with Josh and to start the YouTube whole career. So that same week that I moved away from Kansas City, Trey moved to Kansas City. So we only overlapped for a few days. But in that time, one of our mutual friends connected us and we met.

And then like probably six months later, he followed me on Instagram. So I knew that he at least somewhat knew who I was and remembered me. And then probably six months after that, when I was kind of actually, I wasn't really exploring other options. Really, my only thought was like, it would be fun to find a good reason to move back to Kansas City. I didn't want to move back here just because I missed my friends because that seemed immature to just move back.

So I wanted to hang out with Brad more. But I was like, hey, Trey Kennedy works in Kansas City. I know he lives there. And that is a realm of content creation that I would still like to be a part of. I've always respected his stuff. So I didn't actually have his phone number. We were in a group text one time and I was pretty sure I knew his phone number because I knew he's from Oklahoma. So I just called this random number, didn't know who's going to answer. Happened to be Trey. Just pitched myself on the phone to him, told him who I was and what I because I knew he's from Oklahoma. So I just called this random number, didn't know who's going to answer. It happened to be Trey. Just pitched myself on the phone, him told him who I was and what I thought I could do for him. And after like four more phone calls over the course of a month, we agreed to make it happen. I moved up here after I lived in a limo for 80 days. Shot your shot. Yeah. Shot my shot. That's sweet. Yeah. So it's kind of cool, I guess.

Just that is very cool. Hey, super cool. Okay. thank you. You know, I just told a moderate joke, so I didn't know, you know, if the mojo was still there. Yeah, I just love that you called him straight out and actually like picture like it was you went straight. You're like, hey, here's the deal. I I offer you. I want to like offer you something. I actually have something to offer.

That's basically. Yeah. And I, you know, I'd seen the benefit of two people working on something rather than one. I came alongside Josh's YouTube channel and, you know, we gained like 160,000 subscribers in a year. And so I was like, try and know you've been doing this whole thing by yourself for four years. There's you and a tripod. And I think I could help out in this area, this area, this area, you know, and whatnot. And so he went for it. Here we are. The rest is history. And then we had one other voice memo that, uh, not that I don't want to play it,

but it was just, Tessa, appreciate it. It was basically, she just told me this story of an old memory we have together and then asked if I remembered it. So yes, I do remember that. Yes, he remembers! Woo! Lock me down for remembering.

Do you remember that? Do you remember like the Chris Farley? Yes. It said, Chris Farley? Yes. It said, it said, Paul is dead. Yeah. And that, that, that was a hoax, right? Yeah. He's like, yeah, yes, Chris.

I wasn't really dead. He's like, idiot. Why did I say that? It's so stupid. And then what is the. With Jeff Daniels. He's like, remember when you were handcuffed to the bed? That was really crazy.

Or what was the one where he's like. Yeah. Yeah. I remember. Or he's like, I just feel like the more you give, the more you get. And he's just like, oh, man. Toss! Toss! That Chris Farley mannerism is so good. Oh, yeah, Brad just got it down. Seriously, even if you have enough hair work.

Toss! Toss! And that clip of Brad going off to a boy, Braden, about becoming a patriots fan he sounded a lot like chris farley there he's like do not bring your patriots crap into my chief's kingdom it's very chris farley sounding uh anyway so tessa thanks for the voice memo uh i just thought you know whatever not because anything weird was in your story but it just um you're gonna make it sound like it now now it's it's worse uh just thanks someone cover me someone start talking blanks of the week all right we're

moving on to blanks of the week uh where we do different things every week and we talk about them um so garrett had a good idea for a blank of the week garrett for some value yeah you want to explain uh what your idea was yeah so you guys do poultry of the week which obviously is is a playoff of the idea of you know you have beef with something but because we can't you can't i sorry i just said it and he's already breaking out okay he's all right tick bite there you go so jake jake can't eat beef so we call it the they call it we oh man i'm really no no you're a ghost thank you see uh they uh they call it poultry of the week just something that you know just as in Brad's words would irk you or frustrate you let's edit it out for him

yeah there you go sorry Hadley Joe love you but I humbly submit that this week we do the reverse Poultry of the Week reverse Poultry of the Week which what I mean by that is we've all had those things that we had strong opinions on that we thought we were on the right side of but

maybe we tried it in a moment of like, maybe, maybe I'm wrong on this. And now looking back, you go, I was so wrong. I thought this about this person. So smug and arrogant. Yeah. So just now my tables have been turned and now literally tables have been turned. So Brad, what do you got? Okay. Uh, I have two, one of them is really short. Uh, it is the name for Kansas city's soccer team. They changed from the wizards to sporting Kansas city, sporting Casey thought that sounded ridiculous. Now it's awesome. It's cool. Great job. I didn't, I didn't know. I don't know much about the soccer culture, but apparently it's kind of a famous thing and normal thing to say sporting or whatever. Yeah. So it sounds like Spanish or something where like almost like it's backwards and all that stuff yeah but it's cool

now i remember i remember i tweeted i was like that is the worst name i've ever heard and now i disagree with that uh my second one hey thanks for humbly admitting that you're welcome this is mature second one we're ironic that we're calling a reverse poultry because it's the reverse card. And you know, it's not dang it. Poultry is the ironic part of it. Um, is it legitimately ironic? Cause did you use it in the correct way? I don't, I think so. Um, it's for the longest time, the longest time I did not understand why people were so obsessed with this restaurant called chicken or chick-fil-a i couldn't i didn't know i didn't get it i i had no idea what the movement towards chick-fil-a was that was that is is that yours really keep going i i like people like we were we would talk at camp you know uh

camp there's like there's only one like 45 minutes away in springfield and they're like oh on my on my time off i'm gonna go to chick-fil-a and i like, why would you go to Chick-fil-A? If you're going to go that far, go to Chipotle. Like, like Chick-fil-A, I don't get why it's so good. I've seen the light. I'm embarrassed to say that I didn't feel that way at first. And that I totally understand why people love Chick-fil-A not only for the food, but for the quality of service, the cleanliness, the punctuality, the speed. Domi's there. Yeah. Our girl Domi is in the one specific Chick-fil-A.

I was about to say, I don't have that. Keep going. Get yourself a Domi. Yeah. You need to get a Domi. I'll submit that as a request. But honestly, like for the longest time, I did not understand why people were so obsessed with Chick-fil-A and I get it. I'm there.

So. Wow. I'm obsessed as we all know. Yes. As the thousands upon thousands of listeners know, because you guys love, love, love, love Chick-fil-A. Interestingly enough, that is actually literally one of my reverse poultry's of the week.

I love it. I'm sorry. California kid coming to Texas and people obsessed with it. At the greatest university, Baylor University, the Chick-fil-A was like 10 minutes down the road. Two exits down the road had to actually go to Franklin or go to one in the mall. Oh. like and that was the first one in kansas city was in uh the johnson county community college food court so i'm like people would

this place is not yeah people from atlanta like i had friends that would that moved here i'm like it's a chicken sandwich i went so far and would make the argument that actually the best chicken sandwich is burger king's chicken sandwich the longer longer one, the one that looks like a, like a sub, like a foot long. Yeah, exactly. The argument was quantity over quality, but literally all college. I stood on it most of college. And honestly, for me, what shifted was kids. Yeah. It's very kid friendly. I have, I have never, my, my kids will eat so much freaking Chick-fil-A. So it's unbelievable. And then I started, I started like trying different things. It's like, it's just a chicken sandwich. The chicken sandwich is good. But then I did start noticing the service. I did

start noticing like one, their app program is amazing. And then it's like, they're like, we could bring, I can bring my daughter there and she'll play inside. And I can, I can actually talk to my wife for a little bit. So all in all, I've come completely full circle. I'm not obsessed with the food, but I love how they do business. And then also the greatest tortilla soup there is, is Chick-fil-A's tortilla soup. Agreed. It is absolutely.

It is so good. I'll eat it in the summer. Couldn't care less. Oh, wow. It's my first choice. You are a sweater you asked for it yeah that's number one number two uh is dirk novitsky i hated dirk novitsky growing up because you're a racist towards towards towards the aryans the germs yeah exactly i'm don't worry this is my last podcast german listeners i'll never be back on it but hear me then i got to texas and i started like just watching him play basketball more i just started

appreciating that he's not athletic not at all but that guy is an absolute bucket yeah like it's unbelievable how he completely recreated the position and found a way to get shots off that literally is impossible to block i don't want to go too far into like the sports geek outside yeah but i had to like literally to my Dallas Mavericks friends, come back full circle and be like, I'm missing the, I want to be on this team now. Can you take, can I please? Cause I would dog him.

Just completely dog him. Freshman software cars. Like I'm wrong. I needed to, it's honestly the first thing I've ever really probably admitted. Like, I just want to like him so bad. Will you please accept me? I want to buy a jersey. I like really, really, really what?

Oh yeah, absolutely. All in on Dk novitski now um on that one like fell absolutely head over heels in love with him um and is now like one of my favorite basketball players had another one uh my pop i can't remember what it was but um chick-fil-a for sure and dirk novitski wow jake your answers are really good uh and they're better than mine the only thing i think of and i'm sure there's something bigger and greater in my life that i've changed my mind on but the one thing i thought of is i used to be very especially in college has started used to be very like anti-movie like when people wanted to get all of us together on a friday night in college to watch a movie i was so adamantly against that because you want more social time we're in the best four years of our life and we want to sit in silence for two hours that's not a memory for me that's not a

shared memory i get that not even going to movies but just like we're gonna run out to lobby of the dorm and like yeah put a movie on i was so against that and that even led to like post-college even just like people wanting to like people who are starting to spend so much time watching netflix and watching their own movies and binging TV shows. Like I've really never done that. I've watched the office consistently, you know, for like the eight years it was on TV and I've watched breaking bad and prison break. Those are the three shows I've ever seen all the way through.

And cause, and that was like, I would watch it on Thanksgiving break or a Christmas break. I was so like, if you want to accomplish things in life, you cannot be binge watching things on Netflix. If you want to, you know, yeah, I was like a little Gary Vee before I'd heard of Gary Vee of just like, yeah, you cannot spend so many hours a week watching movies and taking all this entertainment. If you want to live an above average life. And I don't know and I don't know I

don't know where this all came from your TED talk right there yeah this is what I used to think I mean not even that long ago but just in the last like probably six months or a year have like realized like no it's healthy to do something mindless every day and if that's movies for you if that's YouTube if that's playing video games if that's being addicted to some game on your phone or whatever I think it's a healthy part of every person's day to do something mindless and to not be working or not be socializing

and not be doing anything. So I've changed my mind on that. My answer wasn't as fun as your guys'. It was the first thing I thought of that I've drastically changed my mind on. That's a deeper thought about the mindless thing because I don't know how I feel about that. I probably agree.

But I don't know. I've never thought about like, like oh i need to do something mindless today probably because i've already done it probably because i was sitting down in the shower for 30 minutes earlier but man that's the old shower yeah that's shower man oh yeah the shower sit get the steam going yeah well thank you for entertaining me on the reverse poultry of the week i think it's it's it's it's always good for us to look back and go you know what like i was i missed i missed the boat on that one can i please come back on i was wrong yeah now i'm smart man and chick-fil-a will take all of our money as we as you'd be surprised you'd be surprised not all of us not all of us are podcast famous so it sounds like you don't have a james either i don't have a james you gotta get

your james and adobe james to hook you up and a Domi to fill you up. That's right. More drinks, you guys. More drinks for you guys? Yep, every time. One time, well, never mind. We got to move on. We're like an hour 50 or something on this podcast.

You can cut stuff. Two more blanks of the week. Babe in review. I'll start on the babe. Great. Mine is a famous actress, Gina Davis. Wow.

Oh, she's in a league of her own. That's yeah. I saw that. She did there over Christmas break and just had a lot of respect for her as an, as an athlete in the movie. Sure.

She doesn't really throw the ball like how most athletes would throw a ball. Sure. But in the movie, she was the best in the way she handled her success. She didn't need softball. She had a military husband that she loved dearly and she would give up in a second for him.

But she was really good, really kind to her sister, incredible jawline, alabaster skin, just real good skin on her. And you know, for a catcher too, the most grueling, one of the more grueling positions in all of sports, I would say, on your body and just dirty. You get dirt on your face.

Weren't they wearing skirts while they did it the whole time? Yeah. You know, she realized that, hey, we're not going to have jobs if we don't increase ticket sales. She started doing the splits when she's catching balls. Brilliant. And not like fastballs, but like there's a pop fly. Foul ball.

Like if you were scoring it, F-O-2, foul out to the catcher. You know, she's doing the splits, right? When also this like 1940s camera that you got to get the flash going for like 30 minutes. Oh, it just snaps that perfectly. I don't know about that,

I could not run three miles right now.

Really? Literally. I could have. I could run. I mean, I've had this argument. She's like, you couldn't run a half marathon. I was like, I could run a half marathon right now if my life depended on it. What if we dangled a little Chipotle burrito in front of you?

Keep on pushing till you're done with the marathon in Orlando. Yes! Nice, Brad. Oh, dude, good key change, man. Good. Did you hear that key change? That key change. That key change, though.

Had you noticed that when I was saying? Oh. Have you had people say that? 100%. It's just like surprisingly annoying. It is literally, Brad, you hit the nail on the head.

It's the show-off person that also is singing the harmony behind you at church. Which, true story, sometimes I'm like, oh, I'll go for after that harmony i'm not scared every once in a while yeah but like the people that literally are like yeah they're rocking it they're rocking the vibrato as well they're like why don't i have a microphone yeah yeah exactly no that that's for sure a thing for sure i love that i really didn't know if that was gonna be popular and you were

right uh humble brag here because i understand music a little bit uh it's you were talking octaves not key change when you're yeah yeah worship thing yeah jumping the octave yeah last blank of the week we do it every week is review of the week it's only been 48 hours since we recorded our last episode but we've still got some my favorite one is probably a review we got that's not even about this podcast which is pretty fun it's from molleth think. Brad, you always help me pronounce their names. Where do I, did they put the right emphasis on the right syllable? Oh, it's Mo Lillith. Yeah. I was almost there. So Lillith from Missouri said, responding from the Correct

Opinions podcast. So I mentioned something in there that one time I got hit up. Correct Opinions. I paused for that. Nice. We're in sync, baby. we're on the same cycle so we uh in the correct opinions podcast uh dude one time actually no i can't tell the story we're at two hours here i gotta go um on trey's podcast i mentioned that one time someone hit me up on facebook to film themselves having a kid they wanted to make for me to make them a birth video and i was talking about how that's probably disgusting but maybe i don't have any room to talk because i never had a kid uh but i still had a kid and lilith from missouri said childbirth is as gross as it sounds

my husband took a video of birth and i threatened him that if he showed me my birth we will not have any more children never take a job of videoing a birth gross no so thank you for following up on that fun and brad would i don't know if i would agree or not um just the rule is you stay north of the border i i will i will hold your hand and stare at your we'll build that wall yes we're building that Absolutely. You stay north of the border the entire time. Oh, I could tell stories, Garrett, but not on the podcast. Oh, man. We'll save that for dinner.

We got three of them, and I'm pretty sure Amy doesn't want me talking about it. The one time I get famous, I'm talking about her birthing children. She's running right now, just like, oh my gosh, Garrett, what are you about to say? Garrett, don't stop. Okay, fine. I'll tell the story. No, I'm just kidding. I won't.

Keep going. Okay, I just read this one, and I don't remember even saying this um new catchphrase for life this one says yeah we got this one today so it says in your latest episode you accidentally gave me a new catchphrase to live by while talking about rules for honking your horn of light my life was changed for good which is what i'm excited about um it will be on all my emails and i'll have a i will have a place on my business cards it's how i will end conversations thank you for always helping me get on my feet sincerely justin and then the uh the quote is it's not rude to just give a quick toot brad ellis ellis custom creations i don't remember saying that i don't remember it either but i guess i did that's that's

that's the that's the danger of a podcast it also feels weird i haven even listened to our episode yet, which I guess is maybe what you kind of do every week at a certain point. Yeah. But typically I always listen to it, make sure it sounds fine and then upload it. Last week we recorded on, at Sunday night at like 10 PM. I went home and just uploaded that sucker. I have no idea what we said. We got done and you're like, I think we don't have any edits on that.

And I was like, I'm just going to press upload. Yeah. Cause I didn't have time to really listen to it so i don't even know what we said last week which is kind of weird i mean obviously it's fine because it's whatever that means you're getting better it just means you're getting better yeah yeah yeah and you don't have to review tape anymore yeah normally stuff we edit out isn't like things that weren't funny it's more just like i don't know we might uh like need to pee or uh just like there's voice memos there's always editing with voice memos so yeah exactly anyway uh i think that's about it for us here uh before

we say goodbye to garrett brad would you like to hit us with a jingle to end episode 36 pretty please yeah it's got to be something for em. Because she's running. Something about running. Big Taylor Swift fan. Oh, gosh. Justin Timberlake fan. Loves Coldplay. What about that video for Apple where the people are all running in different colors? Done. Do it.
