This episode, we're gonna be looking at a lot of questions
from the ghosties and there's no dumb questions.
That's what we told him.
We said, hey, no dumb questions, ask away.
And let's just start off with that.
Grace Verkler.
No dumb questions, but they're dumb last names.
Yeah, I was gonna say, she asked,
how do I change my last name?
I'm teasing.
No, she said, how much PDA is too much PDA?
No, she said, how much PDA is too much PDA? I'm looking through Grace's Instagram and I'm not,
I'm not seeing any companions.
So I'm thinking she's just gearing up.
Or she just fired up about somebody else.
Or she's seeing it.
She's seeing it, she's sick of it.
She's sick of it.
Let's start with timing.
How much PDA is too much PDA?
And define PDA for the people out there.
And show us.
Public display of affection?
Yep. It's one of the love languages.
It's Latin.
How much is too much?
I mean, just like whenever you see the two, like 50-ish year old looking people, like
Worlds of Fun or something in the line, that's too much.
Whatever they're doing.
Just because their age is too much.
No, no, I just feel like that's what I would typically like.
I don't know.
That's what I picture for some reason.
Worlds of Fun is like too much.
The worst place in the world for time.
Yeah.
Maybe it's just by location.
Like, it doesn't matter what you're doing. If it's at Worlds of Fun, it's too much the worst place in the world for time. Yeah, maybe it's just by location. Like it doesn't matter what you're doing.
If it's at worlds of fun, it's too much.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I don't care if you're on a log ride together
and one person's behind the other.
You don't have to hug each other.
Yeah.
I didn't even think about location.
Cause what I'm imagining is like,
I was picturing like theme park couple stereotype
is too much. Yeah. time and takes over jeans shorts.
The first video theme park couple is be like, is that not a thing?
Uh, I know.
I think it is.
It's just not what I initially went to.
Okay.
Cause at SBU we had a lot of just like sheltered kids kind of like myself, but I went to a
public school
and felt well adjusted.
We had a lot of like pretty off people
being in their first relationships
and you saw a lot of strange PDA,
like in the cafeteria at SPU.
Really?
It was like she's right-handed, I'm left-handed,
so it's perfect, we can hold hands the entire time we eat.
Yeah, stuff like that.
Or, you know, just even like,
dude, we would take pictures of it,
which is like bad in hindsight. But I mean, there was a couple like, they would walk up and like,
put their plates away on the like, the tray or whatever. And then they'd get done and they just
hug like in the front of everyone. They just like a hug of their like, this is insane. Like Glenn,
let me pretend I'm taking a picture of you. I just got to take a picture. And then I would post it
to Facebook, which is insane. I went to a small school. I'm taking a picture of you. I just got to take a picture. And then I would post it to Facebook, which is insane.
I went to a small school.
They for sure saw it.
Why did I do that?
You captured it?
Yeah.
Like Glen had a great time at lunch today.
Anyway, so yeah, I think amusement parks and public cafeterias, none is allowed.
Yeah.
No PDA is allowed.
Anytime where there's food or fun going on.
You can't do it.
I'm always confused when it's like, uh, this is not location based, but temperature based. If it's
85 degrees or warmer, you can't hold hands. Just, you just, you just touch another, you know,
wet rag. It's like you're holding a frog or something. Yeah. It's like you're holding
the frog or something. Gosh. Yeah. Eat the're holding a frog or something. Gosh. Yeah.
Eat the frog, but don't hold the frog.
Don't hold it.
If it's 85 or higher.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I was trying to think of a Prince Charming joke.
Is that the frog?
Timing?
Musical theater?
No.
Kiss the frog?
What was that?
Just a thing?
Remember the kiss the frog turns into a prince?
Yeah, that's the princess and the frog.
Not, but Prince Charming is pretty aptly named.
I was going to try to pretend that I've never heard of this.
Why would you kiss a frog?
No, that's why would a prince kiss a frog?
Oh, yeah. Anyway,
try to think what else I would say.
If I could see your tongue, put it away.
But I've yeah, I don't know.
I like I like it.
Go for it.
I like to watch.
Let them watch.
You know, people talk about going to the airport for people watching.
Yeah, I like to people watch anywhere.
Tongue watch.
Go ahead. Have fun.
You guys are so in love.
Gross.
Just start the episode.
Uh oh, ooh I think this tight beat means that it's going down with some random thoughts
and white meat too. Midwest best friends eating fast food on repeat so come along let's have
some fun and go ahead get on your feet cause this is Ghost from the Spot Cam. It's the Ghost Riders Podcast. Ghost Riders Podcast. There among them all you and Jake and Grandma.
Ghost Riders Podcast.
Ghost Riders Podcast.
Here we are, another episode,
another episode of Ghost Riders Podcast.
I, Jake, am determined to make our neighborhood
a friendlier neighborhood. How are you gonna do that? I have decided. Less political neighborhood a friendlier neighborhood.
How are you going to do that?
I have decided less political signs too divisive.
Nope. That's more political signs.
Just the right ones.
Right isn't correct.
People love that.
Yeah.
No, I I am making it a point to wave to every single person that I walk or walk by.
So if they're driving by, I wave every single time.
If they're walking, I say hello every single time.
I do a lot of running around our neighborhood.
If a car, not a lot of sidewalks in his neighborhood.
So you're running on the street, cars have to dodge him.
If a car gives me ample space, I throw him a wave.
But if they don't, I don't even wave at them.
You throw them something. Just a wave. Do you? But if they don't, I don't even wave at them. You throw them something.
Yeah.
Not just a bland look.
Really?
Yeah.
Apparently the other day,
the kids were on a walk with Catherine
and there was a car that did not slow down
and did not get over.
And I think Catherine, I forget what she said.
Hey!
Or something like that.
Really?
Yeah, but she like,
She let them know.
Uh-huh.
Yeah, a little mama hen.
Yeah, that's scary.
So how's it been going so far?
I think it's good. If nothing else, I just hope that,
oh, that guy waved at me.
I'm gonna start waving to people when I pass.
Oh, it's one of those neighborhoods.
Exactly. It's one of those neighborhoods.
And then I'm waving at people when I'm driving too.
I'm waving. I'm just trying to be a waver.
You know, there's those signs in certain neighborhoods
that say, this is a neighborhood watch.
Yeah, in this neighborhood, we call the police.
Yeah. We're gonna put up signs that say, this is a neighborhood wave area. Yeah in this neighborhood we call the police. Yeah, we're gonna put up signs and say,
this is a neighborhood wave area.
Prepare to be waved at.
Prepare to have a wave.
Have your hand up, have it ready.
And I'll say this, it's way easier to give a wave back
when you're driving than it is to wave when you're on a walk.
I do it anyway.
I'm down here, my hands are down at my side.
That's tough.
Every time, yeah, bring it up, no problem.
You go full 12 o'clock.
I am intentionally like, I wanna make sure
that you know I'm waving at you.
How you doing?
Yeah, big time.
Well, I'm not doing a little side.
I might go at three o'clock, go out to the side.
How do you?
Okay, three o'clock.
This feels like, please stop, I have a question.
Let me think.
No, not swimming, walking.
This is a neighborhood wave.
Maybe what's this?
Maybe more like a 10 o'clock, 10 o'clock wave.
Ear, ear height.
Yeah.
Yeah, I'm trying to do that. I'm trying to.
It just in general, as I'm walking, I'm trying, I'm trying to always make eye
contact with people if they want it.
I'm you ask before. I contact with people if they want it. You asked beforehand.
I contact her now.
I contact her now.
No, okay.
No, I'm just trying not to keep my head down, if that makes sense.
Yeah, if they want to look away, that's fine, but you will be looking at them as they look down.
And I will follow them.
I'm sure, I mean, SBU, I'm sure you were always looking up and
saying hi to people. But like I at K-State was like always trying to find people I knew
and saying hi to them. It's always so I've talked about this in the podcast, whoever
when people like they didn't have headphones in, there's only me and them on the sidewalk
and they're just like acting like they don't see me. Yeah. Come on. You don't look down
like that anymore. Not in this neighborhood, not in this neighborhood. So that's it. That's all I have to say about it. I asked Rachel to help me get better at
volleyball because maybe it says on the podcast, it's humbling. I'm the what's up. Did I say
something weird? What did I say? Because that was great. Yeah, because go ahead.
I'm the worst person on our volleyball team.
OK, somebody's got to be by definition.
Someone has to be. But it's not going to be you next.
I'm taking it on myself to get better.
I think they're the funniest guy, too.
Thank you. What were you saying, Tim?
And Taylor, tons of volleyball. It was fun.
I got a little better.
Yeah. For the Illinois. Illinois timing could be on your team
Take that
Rachel said I said I need to get better at hitting and so she was giving me kind of the Brad Ellis wave
And it was neighbors. Yeah, so you need to be in this arm slot when you're hitting imagine your Brad on a walk
You're Brad on a walk. We're coming up here. Okay. Up high.
Okay.
I think I was like right here.
I was like, you know, rotational torque.
No, right here.
Hey neighbor.
Hey.
Hey buddy.
What is that, a Rottweiler?
Whoa.
Whoa, get it away from Brad, kids.
Yeah, please don't.
Okay, but yeah.
Big game tonight, you coming?

Pretty late, pretty cold.
Just a heads up.
You're not a very good salesman.

Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you.
We were letting the thank yous fly at Chick-fil-A just now.

Anyway.
Oh yeah, cause you're by yourself.
Yeah, I got nothing.
Anything goes.
Just got to pack for Hawaii.
Yeah.
I'm flying United.
I don't know.
It's fine.
I just, I'm more comfortable in Southwest.
I'm a Southwest guy. Yeah. I don't know why I, I tend to be like, oh yeah,
Southwest is the best.
Cause then I use any other airline.
Like, oh, the app is actually pretty nice.
Like Unite, you know, Delta, United, they'll like live updates.
Hey, we just scanned your bag.
Hey, hope you have a nice flight.
Hey, just a heads up.
You're boarding a little early.
You know, it's like Southwest, do they even have notifications?
I don't know if my app has told me anything.
They know nothing about me.
I mean, that's their whole thing was like their technology was so delicate.
Remember?
Just go, just figure it out.
Get on the plane, find whatever seat you want.
I don't know, just, yeah, I'm sure you'll be fine.
It'll take you there.
Free checkbacks.
What are you whining about?
Yeah, Kevin McAllister, he was flying Southwest
when he went to New York instead of Miami.
So, so.
Hey, thoughts on this.
Start it off with a little wins of the week
and then get into no dumb questions.
Start it off. let's do it.
I don't know, it's Wednesday.
I'll tell you, I'll tell you, go ahead.
Okay, Brad, what is your win of the week?
No, bro.
All right, go ahead and ask me then.
Go ahead then.
My win of the week is that I went to my first concert
in a while, went to Jude and the the lion would you take it all back?
2.0. Mm-hmm. I wouldn't even say I'm that big with judah and the lion fan, but it was like hey something to do
Uh, I think I talked last week. He put on his story like looking for pickleball players
Yes to meet up with while I'm on tour. I'll give you free tickets
It's somehow that worked because I wasn't gonna go to his concert. Anyway, I DMed him
He never responded and then I justed him, he never responded.
And then I just paid full price for the tickets.
So hook, line, and sinker.
What a salesman.
The thing, it was a pretty fun concert.
And Maddie Oliver and Gabe Oliver went with us,
saw them at church the next day.
And they're like, hey, thanks for last night.
That was fun guys. I was like, yeah, pretty fun concert.
And he's like, yeah, I fell asleep during a little bit of it,
but it was fun.
I was like, wow, not bad.
Fell asleep.
Was it sitting?
We were sitting.
Oh yeah, funny story about that.
Dude, so we're in the balcony.
I like sitting for our concert.
I really like sitting for our concert.
Have you always, or are you getting old?
I'm getting old.
Yeah, welcome.
Maybe kind of always, but people who stand,
who don't need to stand.
Oh.
In general.
In general, but also when you're in the balcony
of the concert.
Yeah.
It was happening all over.
Just like, there's no one in front of you.
Why are you, you're standing up in the front row.
But I feel like you could do that seated.
Did they have like a seating or a standing remotely downstairs?
The whole lower floor was general admission standing.
That go straight to jail.
If you're standing in the balcony and you could go down
and SRO down there, straight to jail.
Yeah.
I think.
Oh, like it wouldn't cost extras to stand there?
Yeah, I think those are cheaper tickets actually.
Oh, yeah, don't stand in the balcony.
Straight to jail.
Straight to jail.
And so we spend like about a song and a half kind of like I could still kind of see him
Yeah, and you're like, I'm bargaining. Let's let's find news
So then we move seats about a song or two later was your GA up there
We were up there, but there was some wasn't sold out. Sorry, Judah
So there was there was assigned seats, but there was just like gotcha
These aren't taken.
No one's been here.
And so we moved there.
And then what do you know?
The next people, they got a little of the spirits moving
and now they're up on their feet.
Gosh.
Did he play any worship songs?
No, the opposite.
First song of the night, Scream the F Word.
Did you know that was in his music?
I saw the new album.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I was expecting that.
Was there?
Yeah, so I only noticed one song. It was the very first one though.
Cause there's a lot of kids there too.
But I was like looking up the lyrics.
I was like, did I hear that right?
Yeah. Sure enough.
He said like this phrase, you know,
it was some phrase about it's not the destination.
It's the journey.
I used to think that phrase was cheesy as fart.
Cool. That's really cool.
Yeah.
It's so cool when people will just cause. Yeah. I just think That's really cool. Yeah. It's so cool and people will just cuss. Yeah. I just
think it's so cool. Man, it's awesome. You know what I do to people who cuss? I send them a little wave. I
will. I'll love you. Thanks for cussing. No need. No need, buddy. So if you've got kids and you're
thinking about going to a Julyan concert, take a bathroom break on that first one. But then the rest of it's fine. Drink a lot of water before you get there.
So you have to take a bathroom break before you get there.
The long night though.
Okay.
Because I think ever since becoming a comedian, I start to pay more attention.
Like, when do people go on?
When do they go off?
Comedy, music, whatever.
Opener went for 40 minutes.
Abe.
Okay.
Parker.
One opener?
One guy. Okay. And then, Jude and and Lion were on for an hour and 45 minutes.
Whoa, pretty long. So that makes it why Maddie fell asleep.
Yeah, that's funny. She was just relaxed up there.
Yeah, it was nice.
Yeah, I guess I don't know how long a normal concert...
Maybe that's... maybe that is long, I don't know.
I would think like hour, hour 10 or so.
For the headliner? I don't know. I don't know either. We're out of commission. Yeah, we don't know. I would think like hour, hour 10 or so. Like headliner. I don't know.
I don't know either.
We're at a commission.
Yeah, we don't know anything.
Cause yeah, for a comedian an hour is plenty.
But yeah, you don't want to go above that probably.
But anyway, one of the week was that night.
And not only that, but I had some good friends
from Kanaka I haven't seen in years.
Used to spend a ton of time with these guys.
Love traveling around with them.
We would go to like different K-lifes
to compete in their dodgeball tournaments back in the day.
And anyway, Blake Darko, Corey McDonald,
they're a huge June the Live fan.
So they came up just for that.
So we got dinner beforehand and it was just fun reminiscing.
And it's funny when you like haven't seen someone that long,
but you used to hang out with them all the time 10 years ago.
There's a lot of memories you forget about.
And it's like, oh my gosh, yeah, we did do that together.
Oh, wow. Yeah. I stayed at your, you know, whatever.
So that's cool.
Fun night.
My one of the week, honestly,
I didn't have anything written down,
but that doesn't make this win any less significant.
Two hands up.
Two hands up.
I got to go to church this past week for the,
I hadn't been very much recently.
I've probably been like twice in the last seven weeks
and it shows, all right?
I'm basically a Judah and the Lion fan.
No, but my way of the week is just to shout out
to our children's pastor slash my friend Sam Severs.
He's just, he's the man, you know him, he's an SBU grad.
So therefore, he's all of a sudden just already awesome.
But he just, he's a very good man. He does good work and my kids are being blessed like him. He's all the sudden just already awesome, but he just he's he's a very good man
It does good work and my kids are being blessed by him
so many people are church being blessed by him, so I just feel very thankful for him and his
His servant heart towards our community and towards our church and so that's good specific shout out. That's good
Yeah, shout out Sam. I should have said our pastor was the winner of the week. No, you can't do it.
You can't double up.
I know, I know.
I'm really, yeah.
So it's, this is good.
You get it next time.
Next time.
Yeah, it's good though.
Sam, I mean, Sam has gone above and beyond this specific,
this past week, I won't get into the specifics,
but he just, he's been doing a lot and he's the man.
So shout out to Sam.
Lick him.
Yeah.
Time in.
What's your win?
I'm going to say,
yesterday I was hanging out at the Lxa library working on stuff. It's such a good vibe. Yeah upstairs downstairs upstairs
cubicle thing not cubicle like little little pod like standing room only on the main floor
But yeah, Zach text me when I put some pickleball I was like I just sat down to work on stuff
But yes, I do and then so like then just like, you know, five minutes away is BDA courts.
Yep.
So he played, he had his friend Nate with him and I had Jesse play doubles.
And it was just fun.
Yeah.
It was like, yeah, Zach probably is like the worst of us, not bad, but like it was kind
of funny just watching him get really frustrated.
Really?
He's even worse than Nate
Actually no yeah another win is like played singles with Nate after like just to like see how he matched up most even game I've ever played like most like both challenging each other equally. I won 12 10
What do we what are we working on our pickleball game these days time in uh?
What are our focuses when we're out there? What do you say getting it over?
I Game these days timing uh we're focuses when we're out there. What do you say getting it over? I think over the net strategy getting better at slowing it down especially with playing with Jesse
He just constantly trying to drive everything and I'm like it's it's just I like it's better to start dinking. I feel like yeah
Yeah, it's it's the next level of time. It's growing up. Yep
It's it's easy. It's tempting just smack it every time of course we all do it
Hey limit it. Yeah, when is Picklin good pickle winning love it
No dumb questions
There's no such thing
Okay, as dumb questions
There's no such thing. That's yeah, we had the ghosties submit some questions for us to answer
Becca said K-O-A-D-Q.
Kind of a dumb question.
Oh, that's probably it.
I was like, first it's like a.
ADQ's gotta be a dumb question.
Yeah.
No.
Knock out.
Knock out.
Knock out a dumb question here.
Okay.
But what actually was Watergate?
I'm 24 and I feel like it's too late to ask my dad.
How much do you know the answer?
I watched Forrest Gump.
That's kind of my knowledge as well.
And he called the hotel and said,
there's some guys, you know, flashlight snooping around.
Yeah.
I don't know that much.
I think there was some illegal like bugging happening
at the Watergate Hotel.
I used to think it had something to do with the plumbing.
Or the salad.
Oh, Watergate.
Oh yeah.
Or the fencing.
Okay, you guys go.
Okay, cool.
You're smart.
Fencing, I don't even understand that.
Fencing system with the gate.
I don't know.
Oh, nevermind.
Yeah, timing doesn't get it.
I take it back.
2.0.
Richard Nixon, Dick Nixon. Yep. Timon doesn't get it. I take it back. 2.0. Richard Nixon, Dick Nixon. Yep.
I'm not a crook. Yeah, I don't know what else beyond that we could, we could make stuff up.
I know zero. So give us your best guess. I was just kind of trying to do a little joke
about the gate and it was a dumb joke. So now I'm embarrassed. Now I don't even want to say anything.
What do you think it is, Simon,
based off what I guess we already just said it.
Yeah, just some kind of like hiding something illegal
that got exposed is what I'm...
Was it the FBI?
I don't know.
I asked Chad GPT to explain the Watergate scandal
like I'm 10 years old.
They gave me a bunch of paragraphs and I said shorter
Here is the final answer the Watergate scandal was when people working for President Nixon
They're Nixon broke into a building to spy on his opponents during an election
When they got caught Nixon tried to lie and cover it up when the truth came out
It was a big deal and Nixon ended up quitting as president because of it good explanation
Pretty accurate before it's gone, they're snooping around.
Snooping.
Good to know.
You know, you hear Watergate and it's like,
that was some kind of scandal thing.
And Forrest Gump was the one that like,
was the whistleblower on.
Yeah, in this autobiography, the book, yeah.
Sorry, Tangent, did you see there,
I saw one ad but it was like muted on my TV last night.
There's like some Forrest Gump-esque movie coming out.
Don't know about this.
Esk.
I don't know.
It was muted, but it was Forrest Gump or is Tom Hanks and...
Oh, here?
Robin Wright.
Directed by the same guy.
Do you know about it?
Robert Zemeckis.
I saw the trailer.
Looks cool.
What's it about?
The only thing that I know about it is it's all shot from the same angle.
The camera never moved the whole movie.
All like in one room.
One of those.
What?
But like, like a tripod.
Different.
Yeah.
All same camera angle.
A lot of different like things happen.
You know, like I know the trailer at one point you see like a bunch of wildlife and stuff.
It's like before the like place was ever.
I don't know.
It seems interesting.
I want to watch it.
So it's not Forrest Gump adjacent though. It's not know. It seems interesting. I want to watch it. So it's not for us go adjacent though
It's not like no, okay
But like it goes through like this guy who tom hanks plays his whole life
They like dh him and stuff then he grows up. I don't know much else. Okay, but it looks cool
It's called here here. Yeah
interesting
Watch the trailer jake you can see it's the oh i'm busy then financial coach jess
Said how do they make dams?
Like don't you have to make one in order to build it?
I don't get it.
Whoa.
I'm with you.
I've thought about this before.
Rachel and I have talked about this before.
Especially bridges over water, troubled or not.
How do you put the cement down there?
Wait.
Yeah.
Rachel and I talk about this stuff all the time.
We're huge engineering conversationalists.
Civil engineering.
Yeah, especially with Watergate. Oh, good one. stuff all the time. We're huge engineering conversationalists. Civil engineering.
Yeah, especially with Watergate.
Oh, good one.
It all comes back.
That's good.
The fencing time I mentioned.
Yeah.
Maybe better than my joke.
Really?
Oh, that's how a comedian does it.
Oh, you had to bring it up again.
Oh, you can't quit comedy, dude.
That's so good.
Man, taking notes.
Yeah, a bridge on top of water.
What's the first step?
How do you, you can't stop the water.
How do you pour concrete into water?
Where do you?
What kind of crane can reach over the water?
Is it an aquatic crane?
Yeah, how strong are these divers
that are diving down in there with these blocks on there?
Yeah, especially with the dam too.
How do you stop water suddenly?
A million sandbags? Yes. Oh, a million sandbags? A million sandbags?
Yes.
Oh, a million sandbags.
A million sandbags.
But until that million sandbag, you can't, you can't.
But yeah, it's all at once.
You can't halfway stop 100 feet of water half dam.
This is kind of, this is confusing me a lot.
I'm thinking of like the, there's this massive dam
that like, how ridiculous throws stuff off some yes
How'd they make that because I think it's Howard that's a Culus
Timing you're gonna love Las Vegas, brother
Here's that here's the sad thing is that somebody's gonna send a link to how this works and I'm not even or they're gonna
Explain it in three paragraphs Jesse Platner will I'm not gonna
I'm not gonna read more than one sentence
That's that's how that's how lazy I am about this like my yeah, it'll work. Somebody else will figure this out
Me and Shadgy Petey going back and forth right now. I'm trying to get to the bottom of this
All right. Here we go. All right. I said now explain simply once again
How a dam is built and then it's given me six steps.
One, choose the spot.
Two, prepare the area.
I said, no, how do they stop the water to build the wall?
Or they build a cofferdam.
Oh, a cofferdam.
A cofferdam is like a temporary mini dam.
A cofferdam is like a temporary mini dam. That doesn't help.
I do kind of understand, Mike.
They're channeling it one way to build it here.
They build it upstream to block or divert the river's waterway.
Yeah, they build that.
And then they pump out the water.
Once the cofferdam is in place, they pump out water that's left in the construction area
so it stays dry.
Sometimes they dig a temporary path
or channel for the river to flow around.
There's a lot of work.
I'd say let it flow.
Careful.
Yeah, maybe not.
I don't know.
Oh, time and we just got a fun new jingle.
Fun new jingle just dropped.
Wednesday episode?
Maybe.
Okay, no dumb question.
That is not a dumb question.
That is a good question.
Yeah, that's a great one.
Jess, if you ask questions like you coach finances,
you're gonna be-
Next one is from Brittany Jovanovic.
HVAC.
Why does 73 air conditioning feel colder than 68 degree heat?
Because it is.
It's air conditioning.
Three words, because it is.
Because it is.
Three words, because it is.
I know.
I noticed that.
No, it wasn't.
That time I didn't notice it.
Because it is.
Why are they making fun of me because of the way I say because
It's because it's because it is it literally is shooting out cold air. It's your cold air over shooting out hot air. Yeah
Hot air. Um
That is funny though, I
Do think like some people are like,
oh, we just keep our house at 68 all year round.
And it's like, but I don't think it's the same 68.
I agree.
I think there's discriminations in the numbers.
Danielle asked, where do you guys get your coffee?
So I'm gonna say, first of all, dumb question.
Yeah, that's a dumb question.
I don't wanna answer it. But we have to, we're legally question. Yeah, that's a dumb question. I don't wanna answer it.
But we have to, we're legally required.
Yep, it's in the contract.
If anyone ever asked, no matter how dumb.
You always have to tell them about Main Street Roasters
at mainstreamroasters.com.
It's right here, guys.
It's caffeinated.
They're our coffee sponsor.
I got coffee with a guy last week and he said,
hey, actually I do work for
some local coffee shop and they're actually in the process
of looking to do some influencer marketing,
maybe podcasts, whatever, would you, Brad, be interested?
I said no!
You laughed at that guy's face.
Yeah, I said no, we have.
Pushed off.
We are very happy, all right?
I'm not interested, I'm not gonna look even that way.
So we love Main Street Roasters, all I have to say,
they have K-Cups, you know I like the K-Cups.
Yeah, they do.
K for convenient.
They also have big old bags of beans.
Bo-Bobs.
So get your Main Street Roasters,
while it's hot, it's not literally hot,
it'll come in a room temperature bag or K-cup,
but then you can make it hot through your coffee maker.
Yes.
Maybe it's time to get a little ahead of Christmas gifts,
get a little ahead of Halloween gifts.
Yeah, teachers, you know, it's that time of year
where you're trying to give teachers
Halloween appreciation gifts.
Fall break gifts.
Yep, spooky gifts.
Yep, could be coffee.
Could be.
Or it could be for yourself.
GRKC, you get 10% off.
That's right.
All right. What's some more dumb questions?
No, sorry.
That was a dumb one.
Octavian asked, how do lawnmowers work?
OK. OK. OK.
So I think about a weed eater more than a lawnmower.
They're kind of the same.
But instead of a blade, it's just string.
A weed eater is more simple to me.
Really?
It's just like, it's going so fast it cuts it.
You don't need to look at Jake like that when you say it.
Oh, sure.
A weed eater's more simple to me.
I don't just.
We're not putting T on C if you're gonna act like that.
That's a dumber question than the question.
You think a weed eater's, that's so simple. It's just like a string. It just spins around and goes. question than the question. You think a weed eater's expe... Like, that's so simple.
It's just like a string.
It just spins around and goes.
It's the speed.
This my boss?
You don't realize, you think that a lawnmower is a blade?
I thought it was a string, a big string.
Oh, it's like a silver string.
It's a silver string.
To look like a blade.
Yeah.
To scare the grass.
Uh-oh, blade's coming.
Here comes the blade.
Get out of there.
How's the lawnmower work?
It works just like scissors,
but the scissors cut, you know, like a navi shape.
The lawnmower cuts in like a circle shape.
Yeah, I'm good where I'm at with my understanding
of lawnmower, just an engine powers a quickly moving blade that is stronger than another blade of grass.
Prime it first.
One thing that I think might be the case is that like the angle of the blades is designed
so that they also kind of suction up so the grass is like straight so it can cut like
evenly.
I think might be part of it
You can set the height you can set the height
You can set the height at which the grass needs to be trimmed so like if you want to cut it shorter You just set the height different lower the deck
lower the deck Lower the deck
Yep, there's poop deck and then there's the other one lawnmower deck lawnmower deck
Tay underscore blount said I have no idea what it means to file bankruptcy
You just you have to declare it. Yeah, you don't file it Michael Scott you declare it. Well, have you played Monopoly?
Has she played Monopoly?
Has she played Monopoly?
Respond back, have you played Monopoly?
Nothing in her question mentions Monopoly.
It's just like, okay, so you know in Monopoly,
you start out with the money, like paper.
It represents money, right?
Right.
So you start out with that,
and when you lose all the paper, which represents money, you turn your cards upside down.
You turn your cards upside down. So if you go into somebody's house and they have everything
upside down, you know, they've declared bank. Just walk in and like their couches upside out.
Whoa, tough month. Dang.
Ooh, you're refinancing the couch, huh?
Yeah, play Monopoly too.
Yeah.
Yeah, I listen to this comedy podcast,
but pretty good advice sometimes.
Yeah, I don't know how it works.
You always hear chapter 11 bankruptcy.
What are the other chapters?
Where are you going to declare it?
Is it online?
Is it Wells Fargo?
Is it the city hall?
IRS?
Is it the bank?
Is it...
Is this what local congressmen are for?
Oh, that's probably it.
You write them a letter, hey, it's time.
Yeah.
FB.
File bankruptcy.
Yeah.
I was gonna say, I think I hear file for bankruptcy,
more than declare it.
Well, you have to declare in order to file.
DFB.
Yeah.
Yeah, I don't know what chapter 11 means.
Chapter 11C, bankruptcy, I don't know what chapter 11 means chapter 11 C bankruptcy. I don't know what that means
it seems like
It's not as bad as it sounds right like you could declare bankruptcy like that LLC declared bankruptcy, but maybe you're still fine
Maybe I don't know it sounds it sounds bad though. I don't think you want it. I
Don't think it's I don't think it's, I think it's okay,
but it's not the best.
It's not ideal.
You don't want it.
You don't want it.
So if you're thinking about it, I wouldn't.
When you declare bankruptcy,
the court looks at your money situation,
decides how to deal with what you owe.
Sometimes they make a plan for you
to pay back some of the money over time,
or they might erase certain debts
so you can have a fresh start.
It can hurt your credit score
and make it harder to borrow money in the future.
Yeah, this seems like kind of an easy way out.
You think?
Yeah.
Oh, a bunch of people, a bunch of money,
declare bankruptcy, deal in cash the rest of your life.
That sounds good to me.
Dave Ramsey would say it's better anyway.
So Dave Ramsey probably is all about bankruptcy.
Yep. Okay.
I truly don't understand it that well though.
I wish I knew better.
You know what?
I hope I never have to understand it.
Praise God we don't understand it.
What are the divorce laws?
I don't know.
I don't know and I don't care.
Yep.
Because I love my wife.
Here's one that I think we can't answer. Timon, we're going to start with you.
Curtis said, what are CC and BCC on emails?
I got you.
CC is carbon copy.
No, Coca Cola.
Coca Cola and Black Cherry Coke.
No, I was getting there. Cola. Coca-Cola and black cherry coke.
No, I was getting there.
BC is carbon copy. BCC is black cherry coke.
OK, black cherry.
They're unrelated.
No, I don't know. I think.
I don't know exactly.
I think I get it.
CC is just I'm trying to OK.
Carbon copy is just you send it,
hold on, because I know BCC,
Hold on.
It sends to like,
you can send it to like one person or whoever
that does see that they're getting it
and like whoever else is,
but then you can BCC and send it to the other people
who only see it sent to them.
Nothing else.
But what is CC?
What's the Cherry Coke? Do you know what the B stands for in BCC? Blind. Oh hmm. Nothing else. But what is CC? What's the cherry coke?
Do you know what the B stands for in BCC?
Blind.
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
No.
Okay.
Oh, sorry.
Black.
I guess.
But I'm just thinking, why would you ever use CC if you could just send it to everybody
just in the.
Okay.
What's the difference?
So here's, here's the non-technical answer.
CC is a passive aggressive way of sending an email to somebody.
It's kind of like, it's like,
it's kind of to you.
Hey, this is, I'm gonna send it to Jake
when I'm a CC time in to be like,
hey FYI, if you don't do this,
time is gonna see that you didn't do it.
Interesting, okay.
Yeah.
It's like, this isn't really meant for timing,
but he's getting it just in case.
So he can kind of be aware.
So I think that the,
I'm so sorry for the 50 year olds that are listening and they're just rolling their eyes at whatever we're about to say here.
But I think, you know how like sometimes pieces of paper literally had like, you'd write on one, but it would be on the like, like, there'd be another copy underneath that you could read.
Like, you know, it's like a pink slip on the top and then a yellow slip. Oh, yeah. Yeah. I think that's what a carbon copy literally is. Really? I think. And then the third layer is the black tree Coke.
And that's the third.
Yeah, exactly.
And so I think that's the whole idea is like, it's like,
here, you get a copy of this, even though it's not
originally for you.
It was written by, I don't know.
But yeah, I don't know why.
I think CC, you're like, including people, if you reply
all, does a CC go to them?
Oh, yeah. Does it?
Yeah, I learned recently that you could be CC and send it
to like 100 people.
And then, yeah, it only goes to it only looks like it goes to you.
Or yeah. So that was you get on like certain people's like email list.
It looks like they're emailing you about something.
Yeah. Once it blew me and it grew up and then you could see all the people CC certain people's like email list. It looks like they're emailing you about something. Yeah.
Once it'll bloom and they screw up,
and then you get to see all the people CC.
That's kind of fun.
Didn't that happen to a pickleball company?
Yeah, some happened to pickleball.
Like the USAPA like accidentally CCed
every pickleball paddle manufacturer.
And so we're just like going through like,
hey, we have all their emails now.
This is great.
Liza said, why are there holes in bagels? There's a hole in the bagel, dear Liza, dear Liza said, why are there holes in bagels?
There's a hole in the bagel.
Dear Liza, dear Liza.
Nothing.
I know.
That's funny.
That was funny.
It was immediate.
That was great.
There's a hole in the bucket.
Your Liza.
Yeah, she asked for it.
I'm sorry.
I didn't understand that reference.
Sure.
Got it though.
Classic song.
It's fine.
Jake was listening to Steven Kirsten Chapman.
We're weirdo.
Yeah, which came first, the bagel or the doughnut?
I'm sure the second person copied what they were already doing.
Like, oh, this is working.
Gotta be the bagel.
Was first?
Okay.
I was, I was thinking maybe it's like donuts first, bagels like the one thing we can
change is he cut it in half. Trying to be, I don't know. I don't know why there's a hole though.
That's a dumb question. Oh wait, no, there's no dumb question. The bagel came first.
Bagels have been around since at least the 1600s.
Jewish communities in Poland.
I was thinking probably. Dang, donuts, 19th century, 200 years later.
It's all right donuts, worth the wait.
Dutch settlers.
Why are there holes?
I don't know.
Because, because things are meant to have holes.
Yeah, I always perfect try to look up.
It seems like potentially for even cooking, potentially,
potentially so that bagels and donuts cook more evenly.
That's probably the real answer.
Heat can reach the center better.
Yeah, maybe quicker.
And maybe quicker.
Yeah, okay.
J Ross 1540 said,
why is the alphabet in the order that it's in?
Wow.
That's a fun question.
Greek.
Alpha, Omega.
Phoenicians.
CC, you know, Phoenicians make the alphabet.
I learned that.
Go off, keep going. That's all I got so far.enicians make the alphabet. I learned that. Go off, keep going.
That's all I got so far.
But they made the alphabet.
I don't know if that's even,
is that the American alphabet?
Is that, well, it's alpha and omega, right?
So alpha is A, omega is Z.
So that makes sense.
That's all I got.
Element of P.
Oh, dude. Who was?
Oh, Maddie Oliver.
Did you hear that?
I don't know.
So sorry.
Wasn't it Maddie Oliver?
No, I don't remember.
Gay's wife?
Was it gay baller's wife?
Yeah.
Maddie Bolliver.
Maddie Bolliver, somebody was telling me that the, maybe the, the, the, the, the, the, the,
the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the,
the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the,
the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the,
the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the,
the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, some Maddie Boliver, somebody was telling me
the, maybe it wasn't Maddie Boliver. I can't remember now. Gosh, Maddie Boliver, if it's not you, I'm sorry. But anyway, somebody that works with kids talking, they said that the new way of
singing the alphabet, they don't say element OP anymore. It wasn't, it was Johnny Youssef's wife.
Sorry, Maddie Boliver. It was was Johnny Yusuf's wife. Sorry,
Maddie Boliver. It was Johnny Yusuf's wife. Her name is? Abby, Abby Bolivers. Um, have
you heard this time? Yeah. It's no longer ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOP. It's like H A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P
Q R S T W X Y Z. That is more messed up than anything I've heard in my life.
You rattled off pretty quickly.
That's crazy.
Is that how you learned it?
No, it's not.
It seems weird, but I like it.
Is that how little Eustace or whatever your brother James is learning it?
Eustace.
Be honest, is that how Eustace is learning it?
Is Eustace and Prunella learning it that way?
Not as far as I know
ABCD of G H I JK LM in Opie
That element I definitely the thing is I don't care. I don't care how you vote right there But I'm just saying that needs to be bipartisan
There's a core right and wrong or that that is that is clearly the thing is I like the old version because it's it's what it
Always like it just has been for so long
I like the old version because it's what it always like. It just has been for so long.
But I also like and respect that they're changing it
because it makes more, you earn the actual letters
instead of L-M-N-O.
Yeah, but think about all the good rappers
out there in America.
Think about the rappers.
Name a good rapper from another country
besides America, not named Drake.
You can't.
It's because they learned our alphabet.
L-M-N-O-P.
Yeah, L-M-N-O-P. L-M-N-O-P, L-M-N-O-P, L-M-N-O-P. You can't. It's because they learned our alphabet. LMNOP. LMNOP.
LMNOP.
LMNOP.
LMNOP.
LMNOP.
LMNOP.
LMNOP.
LMNOP.
There's going to be so many terrible rappers now.
Still some fun rhythm with UVWXYZ.
Not too bad.
Yeah, that is.
You're right.
There are the cicados and then there's the smooth LMNOP.
You don't have to confuse people with thinking that there's maybe a...
Timing, it feels like you're defending this crap alphabet!
How dare I take a stance to make the conversation more... No, no, no.
I think potentially kids can get confused, think there's another N between Y and Z.
If you're singing W, X, Y and N between Y and Z if you're singing W X Y and Z Y and
Z why you could think that there's a second in this eliminates that as well UV W X Y Z
whoa whoa whoa it messes the whole back half of it up what say that again it doesn't mess it it C-D-E-F-G-H-I-J-K-L-M-N-O-P-Q-R-S-T-U-V-W-X-Y-Z.
Oh, there's no like list form X, Y, and Z.
Y and Z.
X, Y, Z.
You're telling me TUV is no longer a throuple?
I love TUV.
There's something special about TUV to me.
QRS, TUV.
Yeah, they kind of go.
TUV sounds great.

OPQ, RST, UVW. OPQ is a nice one. RST? No, RST is like the, it's like the, the hedles. It's like Voss, Wade and James all,
those are too good of letters. That's what I'm saying. Those are like real fortune letters.
RST is, it's same rhyme scheme as TUV. There's going to be, there's going to be a monopoly
of, they're going to get the two big heads. Oh, Team RST is here. It's going to be a monopoly. I like RST. They're going to get two big heads.
Team RST is here.
It's like, no.
Whatever.
That's price gouging.
RST is kind of the super team.
A little bit there.
Those are the top continents, any wheel of fortune category.
TUV didn't necessarily like, it's
like they were drafted from within the organization.
Yeah.
2011 Dallas Mavericks.
I can't believe they stole TUV from us and put it with RS.
RS and T together.
Because QRS versus TUV, that's a fair match.
Fair fight.
Yeah, could go either way.
You got a Val over here with TUV.
You don't think OPQ and RST are nice?
OPQ, RST. OPQ is not good.
LLMNOP though. LLMNOP is the team that's like, hey, they're not going to win many games,
but they're so fun to watch. Arizona Cardinals. LLMNOP. They are the Arizona Cardinals. It's
like, hey, you never know with LLMNOP. They might surprise you. They're not going to the
YAAFS. I asked ChadGBT what RST stands for,
recommended spare parts and tools.
That's not bad.
Resilience, strength and tenacity.
Regional sales tax.
Yeah.
Let's see what TUV stands for.
RST, UVW, XYZ.
I already figured out it's turn up volume.
W xyz I already figured out to turn up volume
Often assist you with often associate with tech tech nicer uber washungs verin which translates to technical inspection
Association in English Right, that's not nearly as good as spare parts and tools listen TV. I
Think ABC is the is the dynasty of all dynasties. Yep. Everyone knows ABC. Everyone.
Celtics. ABC. They might have off years, but overall they will always come back.
ABC. D E F G. They're, they're not good. They've always been. They've always been bad.
ABC. D E F G. H I J K. H I J K. A week. That's like a friend. That's the,
that's the Jaguars. Yeah. It's the. It's like, what are you doing? What are you doing? H I J K H I J K a week. That's like a friend. That's the, that's the Jaguars. That's the, it's like, what are you doing?
What are you doing? H I J K you're in the majors, but not much.
H I J K elemental peace fund QRS, a solid team, a respectable fair fight with TV.
They were really good in the nineties and they're still kind of holding onto that TV.
Just the salt of the earth. W X it's kind of like, I forgot they're even kind of holding on to that TV. Just the salt of the earth.
WX is kind of like I forgot they're even in the league. Yep. Why?
And Z, it's like they're proud of they're proud of their heritage,
even though they're bottom dwellers.
You know, like it's like a lot of like Europeans on their team.
A lot of Europeans just based off the letters and their names.
And why is he now? I know my eyes.
off the letters and their names y and z. Now I know my's. Now I know my's. Pretty good. Anyway, get me fired up about the alphabet. That's how Bo's gonna sing it.
Not if you fight. That's why you're homeschooled guys. You can teach them however you want.
Keep it within the family. Question for Tymon for timing yep I don't know it
that doesn't actually say that this is me KJ said it's kind of a dumb question
what's the difference between Pluto and goofy both dogs question mark good
question one somehow like it is kind of weird to think of like this this dog Somehow like took over. It's so easy to figure out what's going on. I don't think it's that hard.
It is kind of weird to think of like this dog is somehow like ruling over this other dog.
Interesting, right? Who's ruling over who?
Because Goofy is a walking...
Goofy is the overlord?
Goofy is a walking talking dog.
Pluto is a dog in the same universe, but it can't talk and it's on all fours and it's owned
So you think if you can walk you're automatically better than people that can't well the dog can still walk
But if you have to use your hands to do things that other people don't have to then yes you are objectively better, okay
Okay, I
Don't know good question. What is the difference? Well? I don't know. One of them is yellow. We should probably discriminate based on that.
Because Goofy's kind of got a redneck aspect to him. So I don't think he's that educated.
Yeah. But Pluto doesn't say a word. Is Pluto Mickey's dog?
I know last year on Spotify wrapped Goofy's number one artist was Oliver Anthony.
Whatever his name is. He like really resonated with the kind of West Virginia coal mining songs.
All of those was Chapel Rowan.
It's different.
Different environments.
I want to move on.
KJ asked another really good question.
How can buses, like a school bus,
fit four people side by side and have a walkway
and cars can't?
You know, like these things are the same width. They can both fit in a parking space. and have a walkway and cars can't.
You know, like these things are the same width. They can both fit in a parking space,
but a bus can have two on each side with a walkway.
No way can the bus fit in a parking space.
Yeah, they're not the same width.
Width wise?
Busses are certainly wider than your car.
Well, think about maybe not parking space,
but like the road.
Yes, there's less. Like they can't be that much wider than a car because they still like fit within like the road.
I think they are that much wider.
I think he's got to be real careful when you're a bus driver not to text and drive because you can't deviate much.
Let's check with difference between school bus and sedan.
What's your guess?
What difference between school bus and sedan?
Sedan is gonna be, I'm gonna give exact numbers.
Thank you.
Sedan is going to be.
Thank you.
Six feet, three inches.
Wide. Which would be 75 inches wide great inside into no
Total I whatever you're looking at. Yep
Just wide and a school bus is going to be
quite a bit wider at I
Think it's 108 inches. You're pretty close. You'd nail the sedan. Did I? Yeah
Standard school bus is about a hundred inches wide. Wow, you're really close and you nail the sedan. Did I? Yeah, standard school bus is about 100 inches wide.
Wow.
You're really close.
And you nailed the sedan.
So yeah, a school bus is about two to two and a half feet
wider than a sedan.
There you go.
That's the aisle that you're talking about.
The internet and Brad can answer any question you have, KJ.
Since you're on your computer and looking at things,
I can't do that.
Bricked?
No, I'm just kidding.
How wide is a normal lane on a road?
Like how much? Because I bet we have way more room than we realize we do while we're driving.
Let this be a Devo for you guys. Time is going to work on the Devo. A normal lane on the road
in the United States is typically 10 to 12 feet. Okay. Highways and major roads usually have lanes
that are closer to 12 feet. Residential areas might have lanes that are around 10 feet.
So highway, yeah, 12 feet, two cars.
But if a bus is eight and a half feet wide, basically.
Yeah, they still have so much room.
I don't think that's that much room.
Think about that, nine inches on each side.
12 feet.
No, 10 to 12 feet.
Oh, okay, sorry, I was thinking highway.
Yeah, residentially.
Not a ton of room for a bus.
But a car.
Has you could fit two sedans on one side of the highway.
So if you were truly going to smush up together sedans,
you could fit six on a three lane highway.
It's like when you learn that two basketballs could fit in one hoop.
Yeah, this changes everything.
I'm so fired up about that.
After that.
Natalie Calvert says, aren't all.
Well, Natalie Calvert. Oh, hey.
Well, yeah.
That was the wrong button.
I'm not even going to try again.
Aren't all jobs a pyramid scheme?
You have to recruit, hire people to make the company money.
Yeah, America, baby.
Small businesses for the win.
Yeah, 100%.
You're all working for somebody.
We are in a sense.
I think a pyramid scheme is when you like have to buy in initially.
That's the people don't understand that. That's like the definition, right? Mm-hmm. I mean, I don't know
I think like like as an MLM a pyramid scheme. No
Because you don't have to buy all these products in order to like then try to sell them back
Normally, yeah, I would say a typical corporate structure. You don't make money off of the people below you directly
You make more than them, but you probably are not making a percentage of what they're making.
Like if you're a junior advisor somewhere compared to a senior advisor, like part of your
earnings don't go to your senior advisor. Yeah, not, not directly, but kind of, right?
In a way, maybe the company's money is more allocated to them. Yeah.
I'd hear out a PowerPoint from you, Natalie.
company's money is more allocated to them. Yeah.
I'd hear out a PowerPoint from you, Natalie.
Quit your job, baby.
Quit your job, work for yourself.
Or work at Silver Arsene, you can Silver Arse.
That's pretty fun too.
Yeah.
Why are there multiple foods
that taste very different called peppers?
Wow.
It's the genus.
Phylum. Phylum, yeah. That's the genus. Phylum. Phylum.
Yeah. That's a good question.
That's not dumb.
I don't know. Why are there multiple different things that taste the same called candy bars?
I don't consume a lot of peppers.
I don't even really.
Oh, but like think about the difference between like a jalapeno.
Okay. Spicy or like a ghost pepper.
Okay. Versus a bell pepper.
Oh, you know. Yeah.
Like very, very different tasting.
Just feels like it's a type of thing going from the ground, though.
But they're also talking about like pepper as a seasoning, right?
Oh, that's a difference.
That's it. Oh, that's that's a different okay where
where does pepper come from by the way no idea yeah what is pepper no idea it's
a spice but they have these little balls that's what they're that you grind up
the balls where those what is pepperage? How do they get involved? Oh, it's just an MLM.
Got it.
Pyramid scheme. You just buy into the farm.
I don't understand this question at all.
Madeline says, why are so many ads timed twice?
You wait and press the X and then a new timer starts.
That's not...
You're not pressing the X.
I don't even know what she's talking about.
You're not doing it right.
I know this.
Playing like a mobile game on your phone.
Or like you haven't downloaded, you haven't like paid for the premium weather apps, you
get like a pop-up ad kind of thing.
No where it's like you'll get an ad and then you'll wait for the X to come up or you can
X, you'll press it and it'll X out and then go to like a end screen where you have to
wait again.
I'm guessing that's what they're talking about.
And I have no idea why. Just to wait again. Oh, yeah, I'm guessing that's what that's talking about and I have no idea why
Just to be annoying. Yeah, just to make you pay on the app to get ads taken away. I
Don't know. Have you ever paid for something like I know you've done YouTube premium. Have you ever done it for like a game?
Like something that you got into for free and then then you're like, I like this so much
that I want to pay for it.
Oh yeah.
It's one thing to be like,
hey, I want to pay for this weather app
or this sleep app or whatever.
But it's like you knew from the start
when you were downloading this, you're paying for it.
Yep.
I remember now beginning of the year, chess.com,
I paid for some type of like unlimited game reviews.
I was like so into chess.
Game reviews.
Yeah, that's what I fell in love with the most.
Cause like you get done with the game of chess
and then this computer will analyze like good moves,
great moves, missed opportunities, threats, you know,
like blunders, stuff like that.
Cool.
I really liked it.
I feel like that's how you really got better.
So, cause the free version,
you only get one game review per day.
Okay.
I was firing off games.
That's cool.
Let's see Darrell asks why does a watched pot never boil I
Realize that's not true today. You saw one. Yeah this past week
I was hard boiling some eggs and I was watching I was like this looks pretty close and then it started boiling
so
The reason is it does you just have to watch it long enough.
Devo in there somewhere.
Any tips for Brad for first time dads in the delivery room?
Is that really a question?
No.
No, I was kidding.
All right, too bad.
First time dads, I think, did you play sports?
Is this Durell?
This is no longer Durell, this is Elena Tetro.
That's a girl.
Yes, it is.
So you're asking on behalf of your husband,
I'd say have your husband fight his own battles.
I'm just kidding.
I feel like Catherine was so worried about like how she was going to treat me and like
how I was going to be like too sensitive.
Cause I can be sensitive.
I can whatever feel bad when she has the wrong tone towards me.
But like it's like, there's like a line that's crossed in those times of battle or it's just
like, like in sports, it's like the coach yells at me.
I'm like, it's not personal.
It's sports. That's fine. Yell at me. And so like, like in sports, it's like, the coach yells at me, I'm like, it's not personal, it's sports.
That's fine, yell at me.
And so like, I loved it, dude.
I still like, I'm like, tell me whatever you need.
Like get mad at me, squeeze my hand, like hurt me.
I don't care.
Like, spank me.
No, just, yeah, that's my main tip is just like,
do whatever she needs.
In a way, I think it's great to try to, what's the word, uh, anticipate her needs of like, she might need this. She
might need to anticipate the snap a little bit. How a wet towel, she's hot. She's or
whatever, like give her a cold towel. But then again, I'm like, I don't know. Ask, just
keep saying like, you're doing great. You need anything and be ready for her
to not always be happy or nice to you.
And that's okay, because it's not personal.
It's good to know.
And it's so awesome at the end.
It's the greatest thing ever.
At the end, you get a baby.
You get the baby and it's the coolest,
most wonderful, beautiful, God ordained thing of all time.
So I'm pumped for you and your husband, Elena.
A handful of pretty good questions still in here.
Larsen Rupp said, well, he said, word limit.
When you blow with big mouth warm air,
but with small mouth cold air, why?
I like that.
I like that he like, it's like, I gotta do,
I gotta put word limit in here. He like, it's like, I gotta do, I had to put word limit.
He's still typed out word limit. Yeah.
It's true. When you blow with big mouth warm air, but with small mouth cold air.
I mean, it's gotta be the speed, right? Your mouth stays the same size.
No, it's not speed. Yeah, it is. 100%. Is it? Try to...
Because it is the speed because you can just get faster. Oh yeah, time to blow
really really lightly with a closed mouth. Yeah I don't think it's a speed. No
it's not and you know it. You know it's not. I feel like the way you like, hey, check if I have a bad breath.
Big mouth, hot, hot.
And then little mouth, food hot.
That's so much colder.
Yeah.
Time in.
It's not a speed thing.
It is colder.
Marson's right.
Big mouth, warm.
I can't go.
I think speed might have a little bit to do with it,
but I think it's just the amount of air coming through.
Which is speed. The amount of air.
Not just speed.
If there's more air coming.
I might've flipped.
I might be back on the speed thing.
It's not 100% speed.
It might be partially speed, partially area that's coming through.
My mouth is like, lips are tightly closed.
I can't blow as gently as I can with my mouth open, which is why I can't fully Area that's coming through. When my mouth is, like lips are tightly closed, I can't blow as gently as I can with my mouth open,
which is why I can't fully test the speed thing.
I went, I was fully on board with you
and now I'm back with time with speed thing.
I'm not disagreeing that there's speed involved.
So you don't think there's speed at all?
A part of this, and I'm saying it is.
Because when I blow as fast as I can with a wide mouth,
which is tough to do. It gets cold. It's a little cold. Yeah
And when I blow as slowly as I can with my with it small it's a little warm
Okay
What about what about as you can wide mouth and then go ahead and say it's both time in because that's what I've been saying
What?
Both being the speed and the size area
Why would the area.
Why would the area determine temperature?
Let's see.
Why would the area determine temperature?
Because I think heat expands.
Air expands.
Like if you're outside, it's hotter than if you're inside.
You've been camping?
I don't know how to describe it or even to answer it.
Maybe because the smaller the hole, the faster the air has to go.
So speed is involved.
So speed's very involved.
You guys stink.
I never said speed didn't, wasn't involved.
I said something.
But then you said speed and area, but the area is what determines the speed.
I'm just going to ask Chad GPT with no context.
Okay. So if the area determines the speed, then you can't have speed without the area. Correct.
That's what I've been saying.
I thought you said speed wasn't involved at all.
I don't know.
I'm kidding.
Okay.
Gosh.
I was trying to be so diplomatic with you right there. I was like, I don't think
I said that. I have learned in 10 years of marriage to like fight so fairly of like,
because of course, like I jokingly am getting mad at time. But of course it's like, I'm
almost positive I didn't say that. But maybe I didn't. I probably didn't mean to. If I
said that, you know like
You've been gaslamped so many times. Yes lamb man. I
So I asked Ggp in the same thread is speed involved. That's it
It said yes speed does play a role in determining lane width
Makes sense, so if he could determine that I bet it can do warm air, cold air.
I'm right.
It's not 100% speed.
It's not 100% speed.
You're telling me, okay.
Imagine imagine right now, timing, there's a fan blowing in right now.
Yep.
Okay.
Same fan.
No problem.
Same fan.
It's blowing in from this from this door right here.
Okay. Oh, it's pretty cold. It's pretty cool. Oh, it's pretty cool. Okay. Now imagine we open up this entire wall and that same fan blows in. Same exact coldness.
No, it won't get, it won't get to us like as powerfully because it has like this much more space to
go through.
It'll like slow down.
So speed is dependent on area.
Yes.
So we're in agreement.
Did you guys agree the whole time?
We can.
Except we could go back and look at the teleprompter.
We can roll it back and hear what I said.
You said it's 100% speed.
I said it is 100% speed and speed is affected by area.
You can't have the speed without the smaller mouth. But you said 100% speed I said it is 100% speed and speed is affected by area. You can't have the speed without the smaller mouth
We said 100% speed and how much percent is it on your side 44 at most I?
Think we I think we do agree
How to describe it, uh, yes, you guys are right
Which one of us is like more one of us is right though. Oh, well, yes, you guys are right. Which one of us is like more?
One of us is right though.
All let you decide.
One of us is objectively right.
You're blowing out the same volume of air, whether you make an O shape or not.
You know, when you make an O shape, that air has to increase its speed.
Don't look at me.
I can feel time looking at me right now.
Okay.
When you have like a small mouth, that air has to increase its speed to make it out
of the smaller opening. When you increase the air's velocity, small mouth, you decrease
its pressure and temperature.
So pressure.
So basically what you're saying, like smaller opening air has to move faster. And when air
moves faster, it gets colder.
Yeah, man. Larsen really bringing some arguments to the podcast.
First time this week.
Call him Larguments.
Tell you what, Larson just stirring up trouble.
All right, another dumb question.
No, no dumb question.
That was a good one, thanks Larson.
All right, a refresh.
So I lost my spot. Dope. Hang tight,, thanks, Larsen. All right, I refreshed, so I lost my spot.
Hang tight, hang tight, hang tight.
Why do Americans, Jess said,
why do Americans know nothing about Canada?
Okay. We're the big brother?
Great question, yeah.
Because it's too cold.
People don't wanna like-
The air is moving through a small area.
Smaller borders.
Oh, I think it might be longer.
Yeah, it seems like-
Well, they have the same border in this.
Less secure up there.
No, more secure up there.
So yeah, so it's a smaller hole, so the air, yeah,
it's colder.
Maybe. Yep.
I was thinking the other day,
and this might be the most American thought in the world,
hate on me all you want, but I thought to myself,
there is no country that's even close to being
in the same style of country like America.
And then I thought, well, maybe Canada.
Like, if I go to Europe,
you can tell you're not in America the way like,
I would just imagine like suburbs and parking lots and.
Totally.
Like I was driving to Lifetime Fitness.
I was like, I don't know if they have this massive gyms
in Europe anywhere.
If you go on GeoGuessr, it's very hard to determine.
Like, you know you're North America,
or at least, you know, north of Mexico,
but there is so hard to tell if you're in,
you know, a suburb of Pennsylvania or Vancouver
or something.
I think it's pretty similar.
Yeah.
You just have to wait until you see an American flag or trucks.
You see pickup trucks in America.
Yeah.
So interesting.
So like you think that Canada,
if you were dropped there
and the weather wasn't like an obvious indicator,
you think it'd be pretty similar looking to America.
Yeah, I think you'd have to like really notice
little things like, okay,
there's a lot of Tim Hortons here.
Sure.
Oh, maybe it's Canadian.
But that's the only country that's like America. And that, and like, I, there's a lot of Tim Hortons here. Sure. Oh, maybe it's Canadian. But that's the only country that's like America and that in the in like
I think the roads and like that kind of stuff. Yeah.
Yeah, it just interesting that like because there's not a million, there's.
50 countries in Europe and they probably are all similar
in some ways in their style of I don't know, maybe I'm oversimplifying it,
but I feel like Norway
and Sweden probably aren't that different.
Yeah, you take the Scandinavian ones,
you take the Western European ones,
you know, you kind of segment them,
and they're very similar.
Whereas like, yeah, France and America,
probably pretty different.
Yeah.
I don't think there's like some suburb in France
that's just like.
Oh yeah, we got Dollar Tender over there,
we got Sonic, you know, we got, there's a Gold's Gym that nobody goes to, but there's a Lifetime that's just like. Oh yeah, we got Dollar Tender over there, we got Sonic, you know, we got,
there's a Gold's Gym that nobody goes to,
but there's a Lifetime that's like pretty nice.
Jackson Mahomes goes.
I hate to dive back into science,
but Derell's got a lot of good questions.
Great.
Time has been awfully quiet ever since we silenced him.
Why do Kansas and Oklahoma have so many tornadoes?
Look it up.
I don't think Kansas has nearly as many
as everyone thinks we do.
Look it up.
It feels like Oklahoma is getting doused
with them right now.
Anecdotally.
I don't know.
Yeah, I don't either.
They told me that it was called Tornado Alley.
So does Missouri not have a lot? I think that it was called Tornado Alley. So does Missouri not have a lot?
I think Southwest Missouri is in Tornado Alley.
Yeah.
Joplin got hit hard.
I mean, it's got to have something to do with not being near an ocean, creating more volatile
weather.
So I know when you're near an ocean, your weather is more consistent.
So if you're far within the ocean, weather's more inconsistent,
and that's when you get the combination
of low pressure, high pressure.
Ooh, windy.
Ooh, yeah.
That's what the weatherman usually says.
Spooky.
Spooked, winded.
Tornadoes are pretty fascinating.
Just that weather in general,
where it's like within eyesight,
you can be like, that looks insanely dark.
Look at that.
That looks utopian.
You know.
It's a rainbow over there.
Yeah, it's just like, it is very spooky.
Yeah.
For people who are listening, who don't live in a place
that has tornadoes, they're not as bad as you think.
They're scary looking, but it's so infrequent.
Like when people like from the coast are like,
you know what, I could never live in the US.
I don't know, I'll take my hurricanes.
I don't know how you guys do with tornadoes.
I would never trade tornadoes for hurricanes.
A hurricane could take out a whole state.
I mean, we're seeing it right now.
We're recording this before Milton has hit,
but it's supposed to be really, really bad.
And that's terrible.
But Milton is gonna take out a whole seaboard or something.
You know, it's like tornadoes might take out
one little strip for like 20 seconds.
Yeah, it is.
I'll take the tornadoes. It's scary, of course.
Every natural disaster is scary.
Yeah, the sky is coming to harm you.
It's like there's been maybe four times in my life where we've actually taken shelter in my basement
and none of them have come to anything.
I can think of one time where we actually went downstairs.
Yeah.
It was pretty close.
Also, there's something about being in a city
that makes tornadoes less likely.
I don't know what it is, but buildings, I guess, wind.
Yeah, I looked it up one time.
I was like, why do downtown areas never get hit?
There's too much heat there.
Messes with the-
Wonder where the heat comes from.
Lars. Haley asks, how many times can I wear jeans if we're washing them? there messes with the. Wonder where the heat comes from. Lars.
Haley asked how many times can I wear jeans
before washing them? Unlimited.
I'm serious.
It doesn't matter. Freeze them. Yeah.
Freeze them. Have you heard that? People,
some people like raw
denim. Remember, I don't know how popular
raw denim is now. Yeah. But like for a long time
it was like don't wash your jeans
if you need to. It depends on what you're doing. was like, don't wash your jeans if you need to.
It depends on what you're honestly. Yeah. Good call. Cause if you're in jeans, you're not going to be intentionally like doing something super athletic or like, yeah, I was going to say sweat
inducing. It depends on what is Haley is asking. Probably going to keep them pretty clean. I think
it just depends on the, what you're doing, but for the most part, I'd say let them, let them air out
for a day and you're fine. Air out for a day. What if they're
your work jeans? What's she do for work or is it my work? She uh she works on gravel roads. Oh my
gosh. She does gravel road repair. She probably doesn't care about how clean her jeans are then.
So it's still the same policy once a day air them out. Once a week you want to wash your work jeans.
Okay. Because it feels good to get that fresh pair on a monday
Fresh pair of jeans feel a little snug though. I
Bad are good though to feel snug bad or good bad. Is that a bad thing or a good thing? Oh, um
The bat too snug Too snug and too snug gotta be careful how snug you get because I do I kind of like when they're a little snug
in the right places.
Sydney says, Brad, how you doing buddy? Hey Brad, how are you buddy? That's a dumb question.
Ross says, how does electricity work? Great. How does any of it work? I had the thought, okay, so you and Rachel both have electric cars. You have, you need 220 outlets or whatever for them.
And it's like, you have to like go back and forth on who charges at the same time. I'm like,
can you just pay somebody to bring one wire in and all of a sudden you have two,
220 outlets in your house? Is that how is it? Or is there like a, and then if you get a third car,
can you get a third outlet or is it like, how unlimited is the power? If not, where do you grab it from to get more?
And you have to like, I don't know.
And what is a transformer?
And did they start as a man or a woman?
Very good.
People throw that word around a lot.
I know Caitlyn Jenner was the first.
What about this?
Did you, back in the day, maybe you didn't
because you're from small town, rural, by yourself, but back in the day, maybe you didn't because you're from small town world by yourself,
but like in a neighborhood,
there were like the electrical boxes.
Oh yeah.
And they had like that terrifying graphic on there.
It was like a yellow lightning symbol or whatever.
And the guy like getting electrocuted.
Yeah.
Scared the heck out of me, dude.
A lot of times on golf courses,
I feel like you end up near those all the time.
Like, all right, my ball was kind of headed towards that electrical box.
And like, I guess it's fine.
It's kind of buzzing. I guess that's fine.
I was so convinced that, like, if I touched those things, I would get electrocuted.
You know, it just it makes sense.
But yeah, it was scary. It's like, I don't know.
Look, there's a warning sign on it.
They did a great job with that graph.
Whoever wrote or drew that graphic a long time ago, they got it exactly right.
They're getting like royalties from it
But Ross I don't know how electricity works electrical boxes are like a good height for doing flips off of
like a little backflip You are daredevil. Yeah, where is this coming from yours?
Because I can't do I can't go I could round there was a time
There was a point in my life where I could do a standing on the ground backflip can't anymore
But I can off of something really that's fun, dude. Yeah
I don't know how it works though. I mean, it's just crazy
I mean even just like when Isaac installed this charger in her house
You just go in and you buy this four dollar thing and you replace the old breaker with the new breaker and now you have more electricity
See, that's what I'm saying. Surely there's a cap on that.
Yeah.
Right?
But I don't know.
No cap.
Maybe last one.
Sure.
Who's it brought to us by?
This one says,
Nathan Coley says,
should I buy meat from China?
That's a,
can I go ahead and be brutally honest?
Go ahead, be brutal.
That's a dumb question, Colleen.

All right, one more, one more, one more.
Actual last one.
Rachel asked, how did people clean carpets
before vacuums were invented?
I think about it every time I vacuum.
When were vacuums, vacuums were kind of recent, right?
Like, 80s?
80s?
I'm kidding.
Maybe.
All, hey, same chat, gbt, log.
I'm just gonna do vacuums, question mark.
Yeah, okay. Yeah. All, hey, same chat GPT log. I'm just gonna do vacuums, question mark.
Yeah, okay.
Yeah.
Yeah.
They didn't even give me a fun fake answer about car lanes.
Vacuums were invented, wow, late 19th century.
1860, American name Daniel Hess
created a manual vacuum cleaner.
What about like when they suck up dirt?
I'm gonna look when they became popularized.
First motorized vacuum cleaner, 1901.
They said they got became popular
in the 20s and 30s of 1900s.
Okay.
So yeah, what'd they do before then?
Like how did you pick up dirt, crumbs, gunk,
goo from your carpet?
Maybe there's no carpet.
It's just brooms.
There's your answer.
Yeah, it's just hardwood.
Yeah.
Or brooms.
Surely there's like a-
The dust bowl.
Oh yeah, the dust bowl.
It was a dust pan.
I would never live in Kansas because of the dust bowl back in the day.
No, I think surely there was like a natural, like a manual version of a vacuum.
Like just something you got to roll over it and it like would like.
Like a lint roller.
Yeah.
For your floor.
Yeah. I feel like there's manual vacuums now. Am I making that up?
You ever seen the manual lawnmowers?
Yes.
Yeah. I'm imagining something like that, but for your floor.
I think so.
Analog.
Yeah, I'm imagining something like that, but for your floor. I think so analog
Yeah, so
Or maybe they just
Scrub it out. Maybe it was like more of a rug. Oh the rugs been around
Yeah rug out dates the vac but you see like people hanging the rugs up on the clothesline and they beat them Oh, they beat them. They beat them. Yeah, so if the carpet is attached you just take a bat to your floor
once twice a year.
You're good.
You had a lot of people over for Memorial Day.
It's just like.
Every day, bring your own DeMarini.
We're gonna clean our carpet today.
Yeah, the Easton, that Easton will do.
Okay, stealth composite.
Yeah, makes a weird sound, but it hits pretty well.
Beat your carpet.
Good question.
It's fun. It's a fun time. Ah, it's fun.
It's fun time.
Oh yeah.
No dumb questions.
Thank you for the no dumb questions.
Always appreciate it.
I hope there's some there's some fired up comments about that time and I got frustrated
last week at each other.
I think we were just once again, miscommunicating.
You remember this about, Oh yeah.
What was it last week?
Remember last, last week we made a bet about it every year.
Like we get, Oh yeah.
Sound effect thing.
And it was just, we just didn't get, I still think that I'm right, but same here.
Here we go.
I forgot about that.
To see what the, what the ghosties say. But anyway.
Yeah. It's too bad for recording this before our last week's Wednesday episodes coming out,
because I feel like there was a lot said in that one. My announcement, there's also like,
right, we're polling the ghosties what they want to do next summer. So we're having to go off of
nothing. Right. I did see somebody in the No Dumb Questions,
I was like, is Jake gonna be touring with Trey?
That's a dumb question because you didn't listen
to the podcast.
In due time, Todd, in due time, you'll find out.
You'll find out tomorrow.
Anyway, thanks for the No Dumb Questions.
Yeah, that was fun.
Ghosties always contribute, always a blast.
I mean, just the live stream.
I looked at, I'd had a private conversation with someone for five minutes, hadn I mean, just the live stream. I looked at, I'd had a private conversation
with someone for five minutes,
hadn't even engaged in the live stream.
I looked down, 130 people still watching my neck.
You know, like, wow, these people are so supportive.
Maybe that's why 130 people were on.
Yeah, neck Baxter.
Good neck.
Go crazy, next Gazy.
A lot of people, not a lot.
There were comments I saw that people didn't realize
that Scorsese was a movie director.
What did they think?
I think they just thought it was a fun few syllables.
Oh, it's just like a fun combination of sounds.
Yeah, like no different than Sullivan or O'Shaughnessy.
Yeah, a director known for like, some of his horror stuff.
I mean, he's mainly known, I think he just works with Leo all the time.
Horror? Horror? I wouldn't say, I'd say like thriller. say like a thriller thriller is a better word. It's Shutter Island score
Sazzy. Yeah, it's Shutter Island is what I was thinking of. It's not okay quite horror good fellas
Scary, but like a taxi driver. Oh
Killers of the fire moon. Whoa killers the hair on my neck the Irishman shutter. Yeah a lot of Leo you're right
the departed oh Watch that on Halloween Whoa, killers. The hair on my neck. The Irishman. Shudder. Yeah, a lot of Leo. You're right. The Departed.
Watch that on Halloween.
Shudder Island.
Casino.
Raging Bull.
They're fighting in that.
I don't want to be in a fight.
That's scary.
Shark Tale.
Those things could bite you.
He didn't direct it.
I think he's in it.
Shark Tale.
Really?
Just let me.
It's a horrible movie.
Horror.
Horror. My bad. Horrible. See? Will Smith's Shark Tale. Sharktail really just let me it's a horrible movie horror horror horrible
See that will submit the shark tail. Is that right? Yeah. Yeah
Anyway
Anyway, I'm sure there's a scary movie in there somewhere Jake, you know
Shutter Island the king of comedy that sounds terrifying
That was a movie? Did Scorsese also do that one Christian movie?
Yes.
It was like a fictional story of Jesus.
What was it called?
Are you looking at right now?
I'm looking at The Last Temptation of Christ.
Willem Dafoe.
Yes.
I don't know who that is.
I believe you.
Green Goblin.
He's gonna, he's always looked old.
His whole life.
He's looking old. Give us some more Willem Dafoe. Yeah, keep going lines.
Boondock Saints.
William, have you seen Spider-Man? He's always the ones you haven't seen. Yeah, I've only seen Iron Man. Oh, he has been old for a while. He also is in so many movies. Really? What are some? I don't know how to.
I don't know how to...
What's... What's that? Willem Defoe quotes.
The last temptation of Christ. Yeah, it was like a fictional kind of take on the Gospels.
It's like...
Find it?
I never act. I simply... I don't know how to sound.
I simply bring out the...
real animal that's in me.
No, it's too hard.
He's way more physically like predominant than he is.
His voice is pretty, his voice is also kind of weird.
Yeah, I don't know.
Hey, I have a fun update for you guys.
I, hey, pretend I didn't say that.
Hey, you guys wanna.
This is just gonna be another just mediocre thing.
Jake says.
Hey, we're guys.
What do we like?
Football, chicks, and steak.
Yeah. Yeah.
You guys wanna have some steak here in like a month or so?
Yeah.
Cool. I'm in.
Well, how?
Thanks for asking.
You know, I would give my mom credit to,
good man prop guys, that was a fun scene.
Two years ago or so.
Yes, and?
Sorry.
Yes.
I don't know, I'm just kidding.
While back, my mom had done this research
and found like, there's a certain type of like,
acupuncture you can get on the back of your ear
that's supposed to like, cure,
specifically alpha-gal syndrome.
What I have with my tick stuff,
I had somewhat heard about this.
And to be honest, never really fully looked into it.
It sounded like just a shot in the Eastern medicine.
Like if you take the right ayahuasca,
get this needle in your ear,
darkness for three days, you're healed.
But I looked into it.
I know there's been clinical studies done
because it's very new,
but there have been enough research
that like 96% of patients have like severe reduction of all symptoms.
Interesting.
So it seems like there's enough of a sample size where they're like
publicly being like, this is good, come have it.
Interesting.
So I emailed somebody yesterday, there's a location,
there's only two spots in all of Kansas City that will do this.
Okay.
Is that a red flag?
Maybe.
One's in Grandview. A little bit that a red flag? Maybe. One's in Grandview.
Well, we're going to be free.
Going to Missouri for it.
So anyway, email me yesterday.
They said they have an appointment.
They said they could do this Thursday.
It's a little soon.
I'm going to be in Vegas gambling with time and so I can't.
But maybe as soon as like early next week, I might go in and get doctored up.
And I don't know, maybe a few weeks from now,
I'll just be back.
It's that easy.
What do you understand?
Is it immediate or is it like you have to wait
X amount of days?
I haven't even done that much research
because I'm hoping like they could just tell me
when I get there.
But I saw it's like two to three treatments.
And then yeah, pretty much everyone heals from it.
Wow.
I'll just be back. What?
It's crazy that they discovered this.
Obviously you probably wanna wean yourself back on,
but if you didn't and you're taking our sponsor out of it,
obviously you'd choose Good Rancher Steak,
but like what would be like the first thing
if you could choose anything red meat related?
I think I've always really missed out on breakfast food.
Okay.
It's like getting to smell sausage.
What's it called?
I didn't know what it is.
No, I don't either.
I don't even know what you're talking about.
I think it's sausage.
Sausage was what I was trying to say.
Like smelling sausage, smelling bacon,
and not being able to eat it is way worse
than like smelling steak or smelling a burger.
So I'm gonna go breakfast first,
sausage and bacon, and then, dude, I'm really looking forward or smelling a burger. So I'm gonna go breakfast first, dusted bacon, and then dude,
I'm really looking forward to golf course hot dog.
I really miss hot dogs.
They look so good.
I think I'm just always hungry
when everyone else is eating them
and I'm eating crackers.
So golf course hot dog's gonna hit.
It's like a dry mouth and you're just like,
man, that looks good.
I'm just gonna catch a mustard and imagine the dog.
I love it.
So that'd be pretty fun.
That was just fun. Yeah, real. So that'd be pretty fun. That is fun.
Yeah, real bacon is way better than turkey bacon.
Yep, I've convinced myself the last few years.
It's kind of close.
Pretty good.
I don't even know if I could tell a difference.
I like ground turkey and spaghetti.
Pretty similar.
This is ground turkey?
Oh, if I go to any barbecue
or any like outdoor party
on the 4th of July, I'm gonna be hungry all day.
That's good.
I'll eat the watermelon mainly.
I need to be hungry more.
It's better that way.
Hmm.
Oh, chicken salad.
All right.
Oh, I need to learn how to be less picky.
Chicken salad.
Oh, you doubled the cream cheese?
Yes.
Awesome.
Yes.
That's so great.
Devil eggs?
Great.
Oh my gosh, no protein.
No.
That's great.
Eggs have protein.
What?
No protein.
Oh, I think I just said protein.
Oh, oh, oh. Sausage.
Sausage.
That's got a fun update.
That's exciting though.
Yeah, so maybe get back to Vegas, we'll see.
Now in the email, a little bit of broken English.
I'm looking on the good side of things.
That's a good thing.
Okay.
They focused on their medicine, their research.
They had to bring in the one specialist.
Yeah, yeah, this is.
From wherever they lived.
Yes, yes.
Dude, I remember way back in the day when Garrett Perkins was on our podcast
Yep.
Beforehand, we had we talked to him for like an hour.
And one of the things he had all these back issues.
He's like, he's like, I don't have certain beliefs about one
medicine versus another, but he's like, I tried it all.
I went to chiropractor. I went to this. I went to that.
He's like, the only thing that worked for me was acupuncture.
Interesting. And he's like, and it worked. It's like, the only thing that worked for me was acupuncture. Interesting. And he's like, and it worked.
It's like, so do with that as you will.
Cause like, yeah, to me it's like,
that's kind of weird and they stick you
with these needles and.
Yeah, some of it comes from ignorance.
I really don't even understand what it is.
I assume it has something to do with the nervous system.
Yeah, which is real.
I mean, that's like,
like I can buy into certain aspects of it,
but it also is like, I don't know.
There's a reason why people in the East are healthier than,
like Japan has tons of McDonald's
and they eat McDonald's all the time,
but it's like, they're doing just fine.
Yeah, they also throw down some sushi.
There you go.
All that mercury.
All right, friends.
All right, friends.

from our most recent YouTube episode.
Janelle Benyell said,
I can't wait for Scott to discover Chappelle Rhone next year.
Oh, Scott, nobody like him.
