Yeah, um this morning. I I woke up and I'm thinking Like I'm gonna just go crazy. Yeah, and so I was brushing my teeth. Yeah, yeah. And so I'm brushing, right? And I'm like really getting to a good spot on my left like upper.

Oh yeah, right handed. Right handed. Yeah, okay. And I'm going so hard that my toothbrush slips and get this guy, just it goes into the toilet. Oh! Roll it! It goes into the wait. That was truly bonkers. I couldn't disappoint you guys.

I had to. Wow. Really a zany situation to be in. Wow, dude. That's crazy. That really happened. Yeah. So he was brushing on the toilet. How else does that happen?

Duh, I guess the toilet could be close to the sink but or is it massive massive toilet Massive toilet the whole room is just a big old pool 19 kids. Yes Yeah, the toilets just a yeah trough outside. How many bathrooms you guys have timing? Um, four she Yeah decent ratio for all the yeah, but one of the downstairs he says no one ever goes down there. It's like yeah, right? There's something like that three full bath I think you say full bath if it's like has a bathtub and all the stuff whole bath and then whole bath whole bath Whole in half half and whole it's like milk. You're gonna 2% bath whole bath. This is a whole bath. Yeah, it's then whole bath whole bath whole and half half and whole it's like milk

You're gonna have a 2% bath whole bath. This is a whole bath. Yeah, it's a whole bath Skin bath. Oh you got skin bath. Yeah, it's just a sink. Mm-hmm No, not even just a sink with only one thing that goes up and down one handle one. No, yeah That's Kim skin bath. Yeah, three three whole whole milk baths and then one like little one Yeah, three, three whole milk baths and then one like little one Yeah, 1% Yeah, little pipe size. Yeah, who is the worst sibling to have to like Either go in after or just like share a bathroom with in general. I think it's Jonas. I I don't know. I don't think anyone I don't keep too much like track of who's leaving stuff where I know it has a reputation

No, I don't think so. Okay. Yeah, we do. We do that means it's time. Yeah, it might be You don't know it's you buddy. Yeah. Oh Man, dude Hattie. No Hattie's good Rosie now is just learning how to get potty trained and she Sometimes will use two plies and do great and other times she'll use 38,000 plies and just there it, just a cake of toilet paper in the toilet that I have to go get out. Bummer.

Also it's like, that's good toilet paper. We're like, we like kind of spring for the good stuff. What do you spring for? I don't know, whatever Catherine buys from Costco. It's like the, I think it's Charmin. I think it's like Ultra Soft or whatever, like the good stuff. Like you need one ply total on the whole time. Recently, I think Rachel accidentally made the switch.

I'm an Ultra Soft guy. Why would you do anything else to Ultra Strong? Okay. Big difference. Ultra Strong means ultra scratchy. And who? And yes, it is strong, but it's just thicker paper. I think the soft is also strong.

Yeah, it's fine. The strong is not also soft. Yeah, yes, yes, exactly. Yeah, there's been one time, yeah, Catherine bought something else and it's Costco. So it's like, you're committed to this thing for a while. Exactly, yeah. I mean, this is the next six months of my life.

I got to power through ultra strong. And because it's so strong, I'm not using that much. So it's gonna take forever so that's the key is What I've tried to do is have kids and then you let them use the crappy toilet paper There you go, because they're using 15 times more than I am. Yeah, and then let's save the good stuff for dad Yeah, so so you think that's boring? Talk plot. Oh

Let's get the elephant. Let's get the elephant out of the room real quick. Let's get the paper to start the episode. Let's talk plies. Oh, let's get the elephant. Let's get the elephant out of the room real quick. Let's get the elephant off my back. Hey Horton, get on out of here. It's a Dr. Seuss joke. I can't think of another famous elephant. Hey Dumbo, get on out of here. Dang it.

Hey, Barnum and Bailey's elephant, get on out of here. I can't let it go four zero. Come on. Hey, hey. That one from Life of Pi or something probably. Was he an elephant on the boat? I think it was kind of an animal themed movie. I know obviously the tiger gets all the credit.

There were no elephants in that movie, I never saw it. It was a rowboat with a tiger and an elephant in it and he survived. Maybe. Hey. I never saw it. The one that Aladdin comes in on when he's Prince Ali. Get on out of here. Dang it. I was a cute elephant to, um, I used to follow this guy on Instagram who would do

like trick shots, slash like kind of acrobatics with an elephant. You guys ever see this guy? Oh, like he would be standing across on like a kind of a seesaw type thing. The elephant would like paw it down and then he would like do two backflips off the other side of the seesaw. The elephant would flip them? Yes, they were in cahoots. They would do trick shots together.

I thought the elephant would, he would pass it and it would be like now you buff the trunk or something. They would sometimes do basketball-themed stuff, but mainly acrobatics. You do a back flip onto the elephant's back. That's pretty cool. Do you ever, this is how I work with animals. Do you ever think like, what if that elephant just one day decides to just go after you?

That's all I think about with animals. It could happen, but I mean, the same way, so could in theory, a golden retriever. Like, yeah, I mean, they got that dog in them. Who knows what could happen? They eat the wrong thing and they get rabies and whatever. But you're like, I'm playing the odds here that it's not. Yeah, I guess I just happen they eat the wrong thing and they get rabies and whatever but you're like I'm playing the odds here That it's not yeah, I guess I just don't know what the odds are with elephants. I don't know what the odds are There's as many of them The odds are anyway elf in the room is this that I skipped a haircut and so my hair is just getting ridiculous And I'm sorry. I'm sorry for everybody out there. That's to look at my stupid head

Stupid right now. I had it during like the snowy, I had a haircut appointment made, and I decided I'm just gonna grin and bear it for another couple of weeks. Yeah, I didn't know if you were gonna wait for us to address it. Yeah, thank you. No, no. Thank you for clearing the area. It's one of those things I've learned

to just get out ahead of it. I'll just kinda look, shift my focus to Jake. Yeah, just don't ever put the camera on me. I saw Brad this morning before he started recording and I go, whoa, what's wrong? Wear a hat. And he said, no, I need to address this. I said, no, I have to own this.

This is my thing. No, I've, yeah, I've like been trying to be like, okay, every three weeks I'm getting a haircut. So I have it all scheduled out. So then if I get a haircut a week later, then I'm getting a haircut another two weeks from then. Cause I already have the next one. So I'm like, I can't do that.

Ultra, yeah, exactly. So, sorry guys. My last haircut, not only did she cut it just way shorter than I asked, but also it's like she cut, I don't know if it's happening right now. She cut my hair so that this part is just like permanently sticking out.

Is it kind of sticking out right now? Yeah, a little bit. I literally just showered. So this is when it should be the most down. But I mean- How does that happen with a cut though? I think that's like a calic. It's not-

Well, she must've cut it in a way because it never used to be like this. Do you think she cut it too short? Maybe. Maybe. And so then therefore like normally it's like that, but you can just put matted down. And now? Now you're popping out.

Out. So it's been like that for a while. I guess yeah It's gonna be a year before I get another haircut She really ruined me and this was your girl that you were like I found what I thought I believed in Tessha turns out We had kind of a fluky performance in game one. So yeah, you got to get multiple like Performances out of her. Yeah, I need a bigger sample size. So yeah, that's too bad It's too bad because she was one of the only ones without a neck tattoo. I really liked her.

That's one of your things. I would prefer no neck tats if I could. I just doubt there's just a right away. I know we have less in common. If you have a neck tattoo compared to someone who doesn't have a neck tattoo, we've got more odds of having things in common. Sure.

Dude, that is a blessing though, to find a barber or a hairstylist that you like and that you trust. That is it's not easy. Yeah, it's not something like it's one of those things kind of like being healthy. We're like, when you have it, it's like, yeah, I have it. Whatever. But then you get sick all of a sudden,

you're like, oh, my gosh, this is the worst. Why did I not, you know, take advantage of that counterpoint? Maybe you want a barber who you don't get along with take advantage of that. Counterpoint, maybe you want a barber who you don't get along with at all. That way they don't talk to you. Oh, I don't mind about- They just get their job done.

Getting along with, yeah, as long as they get their job done well is my point. Like I don't need them to be best friends with me. I need them to do a good job on my hair. Yeah, that's the main thing. That's the trust you're talking about. Yes, yes, yes, yes. Yeah.

So. How many of that work? You look focused now? You're good about. Yes, yes, yes, yes. Yeah. So. Timon, did that work? You look focused now? Yeah. You're good, Timon? Yep. Good. Are you done complaining?

All right. Geez, dude. Timon's been going off lately. He's been popping off or going off? I don't know. How did you word it, Timon? He asked me to say this. Flipping off?

Um, think I'm more like, like getting off. Timon, sorry. Go ahead, Timon. Go ahead, letterbox. Oh, go ahead, letterbox. Oh, hey, all right, Typhus. I was like, think of someone to change up with Jake said, I understand if you want to.

Nope, nope, nope, nope, nope. Go ahead. Ty, but you've been, you've been, you've been working off. I don't know where Jake's going with it. So I'm just, I don't know. Yeah. We'll go popping off. I've been popping off.

No he just, he's been doing a great job editing for us. Go crazy Scorsese. That's what I told him. I said, GCS. GCS, baby. I said, da, da, da, da, da, but mainly just GCS. Yeah, so by the time you're listening to this, it has been posted Friday,

but two different pieces of content. Three, dare I say. One, he stayed after here last Thursday and we did like a high production, kind of shark take spoof, it was really fun, get all the lights, get Rachel, we're all dressed up, really fun. And then Tymon edited this Pickleball infomercial

that's like, you would have swore he was born in 91. He like mimicked an infomercial so well. Like he made it grainier. There's like swivel transitions, like, yeah's like the bright like royal blue screen when you see like the offer and yeah, it's just great. And then even more so than that, I want to talk about Scott's pickleball tournament. Okay. Can I ask real quick about the infomercial thing? Yes. Did you like watch some infomercials to get inspiration? I didn't. I wasn't sure where the I know like Jake mentioned

at one point like I like a classic like blue background for like showing the products and stuff But I think I just had a general idea of what they were I don't know and Jake set the tone and like the filming. Okay. Well, like yeah, like hosting the cheesy loud Yeah, whatever in your face. Yeah, is there like can you think of a few of the best infomercials? I mean, Billy Mays is like what comes to mind. Oh yeah, Billy Mays was good. He was the king. Who is Sham? Is he ShamWow too?

No, ShamWow is this like blonde-headed little twig. Guy or girl? Guy. Okay. But I feel like- Is twig a- Just like a skin and bones kind of guy. Yeah, that's gender neutral though you think or

Yeah, honestly, I think it might be one of those words Yeah, maybe like a like careful like your dad says it and we bleep it out kind of thing Listen here you little twig. Oh Hey, whoa, come on Billy Mays more of a stock your guy. I'm just saying they look very different Billy Mays was like Al Borland kind of yeah Who's that? Oh famous elephant. I'm guessing saying they look very different. Billy Mays was like Al Borland kind of. Yeah. Who's that? Oh, famous elephant. I'm guessing. Let me guess. Yes. Tusks. Um, Al Borland from, uh, home improvement tool time. Oh yeah. He did look like him. Yeah. All right. Um, whatever. Uh, what's the, um, the, the bass fish that was on the wall that would sing to you.

Singing fish. Yeah. Yeah. You ain't not about to have no. The one I'm remembering, he's saying, I think, don't worry, be happy. I think that was the bass fish that my great grandma got. Oh, she had one. I've seen one that has multiple songs. It's okay. So maybe it did.

It's got a catalog. Maybe she jail broke it and was like, I only want, don't worry, be happy. Please just give me, yeah. Other one, Magic Bullet was one that I watched 30 minute like show like I came on after Sports Center like well I was like see it you could you could make you could make salsa in this thing you can make smoothies like I have Magic Bowl to this day probably because of that infomercial. Do you remember a head-on?

Applied directly to the forehead. Oh Is that no, which one is that? Is that the? It probably came out when we were like in high school. Might have been a regional thing. Anyway, I wrote a paper on it in high school because, or in college, because it was all like, it was a placebo thing. It was like, it looked like a like big chapstick. OK. So like, and it was like, if you have a headache, just rub this like butter on your forehead. Those people went on to make essential oils, I think.

That's what essential oils is. Yeah, so, but they were, they also, so not only was that a placebo, but they also, their commercials was like, head on, apply directly to the forehead. Head on, apply directly to the forehead. Just, that's all it was? Head on, you know, and so, yeah, I wrote a paper

on how advertising either needs to be really good or really bad. Yeah. If you're neutral, you don't remember it. What about National American University? We didn't have that. No! Is that a regional thing?

I thought that was like, like, is DeVry a regional thing? Or ITD Tech? Oh, no, we got those. Those are great. Yeah, DeVry, ITD Tech. National American University. One day, one night, Saturday's all right.

Online's just fine. Nighttime, anytime, get your degree. Set yourself free. Everyone, National American University. This sounds like when you start singing about Good Ranchers, you're kind of just making up a jingle on the fly. Nighttime, daytime, Saturday, maybe.

Who knows? Yeah, dude. We didn't have that. No, that one was like every day on ESPN. It was National American University. Anyway, infomercial. Good job, Timon. Yeah. So we edited that. Sorry, one more. What about the ones that had like, you could buy Sorry, one more. What about the ones that had like, you could buy seven, eight CDs in a pack. The CDs. And it would be like, with hits like this one. Yeah. Yeah. Oh yeah. Now that's what I call music, whatever. And that's how I learned half the songs that I have like, like a little bit of knowledge on like,

oh yeah, I know the song Mississippi Queen. It's from that infomercial. Like, I don't think I've ever listened to that song in my life, but I know Mississippi Queen. That truly might've been like my early exposure to secular music. Like just seeing, just like a ring tone at a time. Of like, oh, it's pronounced Shania. Oh, I've seen that word before. I thought it was Shania.

Yeah, Shania. That was Spanish. Dude, yeah. Yeah, Shania Twain. Oh wow. All the songs would be going through the list, but then every once in a while one would be like highlighted and they would sing it. Exactly. It's great and always the payments of this we did that in ours. I did 99 payments of one dollar

Because that's just like a classic infomercial thing. I was convinced. It's so funny. I was just thinking about this the other day I was convinced back in the day that like you had to call within those first like maybe it's because of Friday pickleball ad thing We're like time is running out on this Cyber Monday deal. It's like, this is the same deal they always run. You have to create scarcity. Yeah, it's like, hey, if you call the next five minutes, we'll throw in this extra thing.

And it's like, I need that extra thing. We gotta call in five minutes. You're right. This is the only channel that's ever airing this commercial right now. I thought they had their ducks so in a row, like, well, they know where and when each commercial is airing and they know where I'm calling from so they'll know I saw in the next five minutes It's a different it's a different number for ESPN than it is for TNT. You're right. That was all made up

There was no like you have to call in the next five minutes to get this free hat like crazy Yeah, you're right. Yeah, but but everyone wanted the free hat It was like right after the Red Sox won the World Series But you can also get this Sports Illustrated hat. And there'd be a countdown in the corner of like the timer or whatever. Yeah. It's going right now.

They were goofing us. I don't think I ever called or ordered anything. I don't think my family ever did. No, not even close. I guess your grandma got a fish. Yeah, great grandma got a fish. That's about it. I don't know of anything else.

Anyway. You know anyone who got a flex seal? No, but I've seen them. They seem like they do well. Yeah, they got them at ace. Yeah, there's, yeah. They got spray. They got the slap.

They gotta work if they have been around that long. They probably do. Yeah. Good for them. Maybe we'll try it sometime. Let's leak something. Let's get a hole. Yeah. Oh yeah, my roof.

Oh, flex still that thing. David showed up at my house a couple nights ago, like at 7 p.m., we're like having dinner. roof. Oh, why steal that thing? David showed up in my house a couple nights ago, like at 7 p.m. We're like having dinner. OK. Hey, David. You want some shrimp scampi? He's a really sweet guy. I mean, to be fair, I kind of been ghosting him

as well. I try to figure out what I want to do next and hadn't responded to him. He's like, you're checking in. Yeah. Just a checking. And so I sent him an email. It's all good. But just last night, Scott said, I'm going to be, I think I'm taking the dive. I said, what to, what in, how much liquid?

He said, cozy earth. I said, dude, I'm not even just saying this. You gotta. You gotta and you're welcome. Yeah, Rachel even had the idea. She's like Valentine's Day is coming up. You could get like a little set or something for Sam. Get something for yourself.

Like yourself's bed sheets. I don't know, dude. But last night I was wearing Cozier Joggers. I let Scott feel them and he said, I gotta. Yeah. And I'll just, it is embarrassing, but I'm wearing them once again today because I can't stop.

I don't think it's embarrassing. You have different underwear on, right? Of course. Yes, then you're fine. And I showered. But yeah, I'm always wearing Cozy Earth, especially in the wintertime. It's so comfy.

It's so truly cozy. They have a great name for the company. I have just notes here, and all it says is Cozy Earth, you gotta. That's all I see, so. Yeah, and you also gotta, because we can get you 40% off. So don't be scared away by the prices. Take that price and then take your calculator

and say times 0.4. That's how much you get off. And that's how much you'll save. So then don't get too excited by that number because then it's actually a little bit higher than that. But it's barely higher than that. But just a little bit. Yeah, I recommend it, Scott.

I recommended any one of you guys take the dive yourself into Cozy Earth, just peruse their site. They have so many different stuff. The viscose from bamboo bedsheets, the joggers, the sweatshirts, the socks, those are like the main things. Towels. Yeah, towels. Nice towels.

So it's CozyEarth.com, it's slash Ghostrunners. Yes. And we have a promo code of GRKC for that 40% off. You got it. Yep, yep. Somehow, some way, figure it out. Get yourself a little discount. Thank us later.

Anyway, so last week I previewed that Scott has a chance to win money at this big tournament. There's gonna be a crowd there. I was asked to do standup comedy. Time is gonna be there. Joan showed up, Hannah Warner showed up. So fun event. I think we also discussed last week, Scott's walkout song.

Did we discuss it on the podcast? We definitely discussed it off the podcast. That might've been off the podcast. Okay, this is great. This is perfect. Cause I want to bring it up anyway. So I think I was telling Brad later, like when we got done recording, I guess,

Scott's got this walkout song. There's gonna be a fog machine. I send Brad the song. He, like when we got done recording, I guess Scott's got this walkout song, there's gonna be a fog machine. I send Brad the song, he's like, this is it. I was like, oh no, no, I forgot. Scott said you're supposed to play it at 30 seconds. I love it already, I love it already. Cause I saw it coming.

We, yeah, go ahead, go ahead. Basically, I just want, give me your, I was gonna do multiple choice, but just give me your best guess of like, what ended up happening with Scott's walkout song. Sure. Yeah sure. So And who knows why I bring it up maybe it worked out perfect, maybe that's why I'm bringing that's what it is people went nuts I Don't think we talked about the podcast every time I don't I don't recall I don't think so. It feels like we did it right after we recorded which is dumb or before I think we did before You shut up. Hey, how about it doesn't matter when we did it right after we recorded which is dumb or before I think we did before you shut up

Hey, how about it doesn't matter when we did it? How about we just do it right now? So Jake and I have done enough of these kind of things to where I'm like like we've done enough weddings We've done enough parties to understand like there is a huge value to this but not everyone has the gene for that value and Often, you know, we I want you to remember what you just said right there. Cause that's gotta come up with more times. Yeah. I mean, I've done enough like church, you know, things with different church people, like, okay, this sound guy back here for the wedding, like I'm playing guitar. He's back there. Like he, he seems

like he kind of knows what he's doing. No, he doesn't. He does it once a month, you know, whatever. Um, and so as I'm listening to this song that Jake tells me about Scott's, you know, Scott's all about EDM, techno, whatever the song is called more party. Listen to it right now if you want the first, yeah, whatever. It was like kind of slow. And I'm like, Oh, you know, like assuming to myself, there's a good chance we'll say 50% or more that the person playing the song is not going to go to the 32nd mark on this thing and I think you predicted like welcome Scott and DJ and then just like Time it's over there already like yeah, like the like the very slow build is already like over and then like alright now let's welcome

Yeah, oh turn that off. All right. Hey, get out of here. So my prediction, I have two predictions. One of them is a little bit simpler. One of them is just that they announced them and they walk out onto the court or whatever before the song gets played at all. Like it's like a solid seven seconds.

They're already there and then the song just starts from the beginning and goes really slowly. And then my next one is similar to that, but adding onto that the song continues and they're the first ones to get introduced. The second people to get introduced are, you know, Ron and Jeremy and Ron and that's like a, sorry, that's inappropriate. Ron, Jeremy, I think he's like a, doesn't matter. I have no idea, go ahead. I don't know why those, Ron and Richard.

Well, Richard could be shortened to, gosh darn it. Ron and Terrence. Yeah, that'll work. Okay, Ron and Terrence, they get the good drop from the song. The song just continues for them. Like they paused it for Scott and TJ and then they just play it again. No, no, it just, it just continuing and like all the buildup that like, and now let's welcome Ron and Terrence. Yeah. So those are my guesses. And TIRANNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN Really? Yeah. What song was it? Philip Phillips Home? No, it's like it's it's I think it could be guessed. It's kind of a basic hype song. If you live in Kansas City.

Welcome to the. Yes. Oh, wait. No, the other one. Oh, uh. KC Mo. Yeah, OK. Roar. It's fun. So they played that instead. And I guess the guy came up to Scott off. Sorry, I just I didn't have time. It was, it didn't have time.

Oh, man. It takes a while to download that thing. You got to download them these days. I don't know if you can't just stream them. Oh, man. That's great. So what did that screw Scott up a little bit? Was he, was he flustered?

They didn't play my song. I did text him, I think the day of, and I said, what do you think the odds are that this guy plays it at the right time? And Scott said 3%. So I think he went in with good expectations. Good, he had realistic expectations. Yeah, the different song,

I threw a lot of us for a little bit of a loop, but so they come out into the fog. Yeah. Paint the picture for me. Well, you're going to have to lower your standards right away on what fog looks like. Okay. Great. I mean, it's a massive place, right? Like how in the world are you going to fog anything in that area? So I think the plan was for them to start outdoors and then come through one of like the kind of the side doors

That chicken pickle and then run through the fog Well, I mean it was like 10 degrees at night So I think Scott teacher like I don't like I sit in the cold until you announce me Yeah, it's in like I will start inside and we'll just get the fog going the first guy's getting out and the fog looks like I Don't I don't know what it would be. Just like there's a little bit of steam coming off your tea. It was just like dissipated instantly.

I mean, hardly anything, the naked eye can barely see it. But I can hear it. I can hear a fog machine going. I can smell it. I can smell it. I can smell it, hear it. I low key kind of like that smell. Yeah. It would remind me of camp. That's why I smell it. I can smell it here it I low-key kind of like that smell. Yeah

It was it would remind me of camp. That's why I look that's why I like. Yeah, it's fine It looked like when you see those videos like the infrared camera capturing someone like farting in public It was kind of like that like a small cloud going and then gone I mean, it's in a it's in a like room that has five pickleball courts in or whatever However, yeah, I think it is like it's a huge room. So yeah,ball courts in it or whatever, however big it is. It's a huge room, so yeah. Probably 20,000 square feet or something in there. Who knows how big it is? So that's happening.

So that was sick. So that was sick. Luckily, we had some friends there. Bree and Rustin came to watch. Heard about that. Sam, Scott's wife, a couple other friends were there and sort of like, all right, for Scott and TJ, let's make a little tunnel. I think Loki that kind of added a lot to watch. Heard about that. Sam, Scott's wife, a couple other friends were there and sort of like, all right, for Scott and TJ, let's make like a little tunnel.

I think Loki that kind of added a lot to it. I think it made it significantly better. Okay. They could go under the tunnel and at times he's right there with his gimbal, filming them. Later time, he was a little nervous. He's like, I don't know if it was my best work.

Oh. I said, dude, it looked great. Also wasn't looking at the camera, but your body looked great. Where you were looked normal. So I think when I get done with all this time, and I want you to send Brad what you've sent Scott. Oh, sweet. That Scott said he's watched 45 times.

So we get to the, actually I'm a bit ahead of myself. Before we even get to the fog machine. You're ahead of your skis? I was ahead of my skis a little bit. So we thought that the boys would probably start around 7.30 or eight. We told time to show up around 7.15, 7.30, we're all get there early.

And the game before them gets wrapped up about 7.30, like, oh, great, here we go. and then starts just a number of just random just like Quest mini games. I don't know just oh, there's like they were stalling. Yeah, yeah, okay So first they were like um all right At least I should have wrote down all the events that took place is the first one I can remember is they were like we're going to play a, we're going to play a fun little game. And it looked like a Friday Pickle while YouTube video because they chose for random people from

the audience. And I think they made them like spin a wheel or something. And then the wheel was like the paddle you had to play with. Okay. Very YouTubey. And so we just watched these like four guys play a game with like a baking sheet and a cutting board and stuff like that. It's like, okay, that gets done. And then they were like, all right, we need representatives from the following people

to come to the center court. And it's like, and they say Friday Pickleball. Like, I don't know what this is about. Like, Isaac, you go, I don't want to do it. I don't know what it is. And then they're just taking a picture of people who kind of sponsored it. We donated some paddles.

So they're like, we want to take a picture. So like, Jake, come over here too. I'm like, all right, I'll go take a picture. It's a world standing in line. Not a huge crowd, maybe a hundred people surrounding one court. That's pretty good for a pickleball match. And we're just kind of standing there,

in the kitchen, all in line, ready to have our picture taken. And a guy gets on the mic and kind of starts talking about the donations and the sponsors. the mic and kind of starts talking about the donations and the sponsors. And then he kind of starts talking about the event and we're still just like kind of standing there. And then he goes, and next up,

we're gonna hear from Garret Deter. He's gonna talk about Variety KC, they're the title sponsor of this. And so then Garret comes up and he starts telling this like pretty like heartwarming story about how his daughter has autism apraxia, I think is what it's called. And you're standing on the court.

Yes, we're just standing there. First of all, I felt bad for him because no one's quiet for the first 60 seconds. It's one of those events where everyone's talking, they have cocktails, they have food. 2,000 square foot or however big. You're gonna hate this too. Chicken Pickle, I was pointing out a time

and they have speakers everywhere. Every time we go film, I ask them to take the music off. This guy brought in his own JBL speaker that's just in the corner. Oh, and smart. So we're just running everything one speaker off of that one speaker. One speaker.

Also happens to be pretty much underneath the table we bought. Oh, fun. Yeah, it is. It is extremely loud if you're sitting where we're sitting, pretty faint anywhere else. Oh, why? So Gary is trying to talk about his daughter and how she's nonverbal, extremely loud if you're sitting where we're sitting, pretty faint anywhere else. Oh. Why? So Gary is trying to talk about his daughter

and how she's nonverbal, but how variety KC has been giving her technologies and tools and assistance to be able to communicate with them and how important that is. No one's listening, I feel bad for him. Meanwhile, we're just standing there. Are you like overly listening then? Like that's what I would do.

In that case, I would stare at him and be like, that's awesome, dude. Yes. Wow. Wow. Yeah All those things so it just getting awkward every little thing that happens is getting more and more awkward He gives about a five minute spiel Then they start to do something else. They're like actually guys you, you can just hop off for this. Never get the picture taken, but we just hop off the court. And the next thing I remember, at that point, I hop off the court and I see that Joan

and Hannah Warner are there. Like, oh fun, let me talk to them. I've got my back to the court. And then all of a sudden I hear, Tommy, I think you know where we're getting. Would you like to try and like mimic what we heard at that time? I think it'd be really funny if you tried to.

I can try All right, sorry now we're gonna go to one dollar hundred To two Three three I see I see actually no it's more like 200 200 200 can I get a two-fifty two two two? two two twenty five two twenty five Can I get a 250 to do it to 225 to 25? This guy credit to him is a pro like they clearly brought in a professional Auctioneer yeah, this is the same guy like like everything me sounded me doing that badly was not like imitating how badly he did a good job

Had all those filler words hey better dollar whatever they say when they're actioneering. I love it. Five, you know, he was great. Unfortunately, no one here is like wanting to bid. There's not that many people there. The items we're bidding for are things like we kind of all already have. Sure.

Cause we're pickleball players. Sure. And man're pickleball players. Sure. And man, it's just, I just felt bad for the guy. I think I said to Joan, I was like, this is exactly how it would have looked if I was doing standup comedy right now. Because it would be like,

I'm sure that guy's good at what he does, but this is not the environment for it. Yeah. So he's just going around just begging for someone to open the bidding of $500. And no one's doing it. So he's just going around just begging for someone to open the bidding of $500 and no one's doing it. So he's just saying 500 it just in as many different ways as an auctioneer possibly can a going to get a $500, $500, $500.

Hey, hey, hey, hey, raise your hand if if you like pickleball, hey, we got a bit there, you know, whatever, doing all this stuff. He's trying his best. No one's bidding. And then the saddest part is, I think one guy does bid $525, and it's the guy running the whole event. Sure.

Just like, he's like, dude, I'm not actually gonna pay it, but like, I'll just say it so you can get out of here. Just get this over with. So we're like, whew, okay, that was weird. Man, are Scott and TJ ever gonna play Pickleball? We thought they were next up an hour ago. Wow. And then they go, all right, that was the bidding for the north side of the room.

Now we're gonna do it for the south side of the room. Read the room. Read both sides of the room. Golly. So then we did it again in another round of auctioneering. And what happened that time? It just feels, it's just one of those things where like, I wish the guy would have just moved on quicker

instead of being like, all right, it doesn't look like we have any bids tonight, no worries. Hey, I have a good night at pickleball. It was like, it was almost like comedy where like he had agreed to do five minutes a time. So he was gonna fill his five minutes. Sure, yeah. I'm just saying the same number over and over again.

That's tough. I couldn't look. I was like, I was, a lot of eye contact with Joan. I was like, no, I'll just talk to you with my back to her. I was like, I just feel so bad for this guy. Do you think if you would have looked, you would have maybe gotten hooked into it and you'd like, yeah, I could use a few more paddles.

I just remembered, I have a video of this, don't I, Timon? Let's see if I can find it. I'll send it to you guys and we could put it in the episode. I'll send it to you guys and we could put it in the in the episode. He's going nuts. Wow. You hear him right at the end go back down to 600. Yeah, that was people just milling about like not focused on. I think it's maybe maybe if he wasn't so loquacious, like like didn't have so many words, people might have like, talked less.

That makes sense. Maybe you're, yeah. Or even just intimidated. Like this is a real auctioneer. I've never been to an auction. I don't even, I barely understand what the dollar amount is right now. That's fair too. Like, do I raise my hand?

Do I have to get one of those paddles that you raise up? Like, yeah, it's like, uh, like if he was just like, okay, does anybody want to spend $500 on this thing? And then it's just quiet for a while. Okay. $500, 500. I guarantee those people that, you know, are sitting there talking very comfortably would be like, Oh, I'm a little bit uncomfortable right now.

We should probably be quiet. Anybody 500, like, but it says like, like I can say, I also wonder, I don't, I don't know how this guy works, but I know that I, I used to subscribe to an email for like an online auctioneer because I bought wood from this guy. One time I had a stellar deal and I bet he gets like 3% of whatever he sells. I wonder if this guy's like, I'm staying here until I get $575 because you know, I get a little bit of this cut. I don't know if that's a great point. That could very well be true. That's how they make their money is not necessarily like I get paid $100 to do this. It's like, no,

I get paid. I'll just take 10% of whatever you sell this for. I don't know. That's fun. Anyway, that's- It could very be your wheelchair. Calling all sellers, Salesforce is hiring account executives to join us on the cutting edge of technology. Here, innovation isn't a buzzword.

So Scott did eventually play eventually then now it's the dissipating fog machine and coming out and Scott didn't leave too early because he was like watching the chiefs game with us beforehand and he's like, I think I'm gonna stay for the whole chiefs game guys. That's right. I forgot. Yeah. Thankfully he stayed for that at least. That was a fun day. Anyway, the boys go out there and the other team is from Nebraska. And so

everyone is rooting for Scott and TJ because everyone knows them. They know Friday. And so it's kind of fun. They had the whole crowd on their side. Home ground. Yeah. Which is really great. So it was kind of fun. They had the whole crowd on their side. Home ground. Yeah, which is really great. Unfortunately, they lost the first game 12 to 10. It was a bummer. But as close as they can get.

And then the next game, they just got demolished. Unfortunately, they were down zero to 10 at one point. I mean, it was bad. What? And then they like finally did score a point and the crowd went nuts, which is like really cool. But also Isaac and I were talking over in the corner. We're like, this is getting a little like make a wishy a little bit like you did it.

Yes. A one point. The crowd is going nuts for like a simple like play or whatever and then they scored two points and the crowd is going nuts again. Isaac, I was never trying to figure out like, would we like this? It would be like, dang it.

They're like pity cheering for us. How many points until you like, as a fan actually are like, they might like you're like cheering for like once they get number six, all of a sudden it's like, yeah, this might actually happen. I will say the crowd made it believable because once the crowd is into it, even once it got to three points is like, you never know. Yeah. They end up losing 11 to three.

When they had it like 310, it was their service. Like, hey, I don't know. Right. I believed. Yeah. What did you text us? What did I? You're just something like you couldn't believe how invested you were in the comeback. Yeah. It was like this is I don't get into sports much, but I was like this this was like the most, I'd like at a sporting event was like this, come on. Like I was, I was into it. That's like, cause like they, they gave me hope out of there.

Like coming back, I was like, right. They could just go on like a run and, and win it. That's sports. And it really was, I mean, I couldn't help but think I was like, what a YouTube video to lose the first game. And then they go down zero 10. And then they come back and win the whole thing. Yeah, it would have been awesome. But that's the beauty of pickleball or baseball like certain sports

It's like you're never out until you're completely out. Yes, because pickleball and baseball It's like when it's your side of this is you're the only person who could score right? Just kind of fun Whereas like basketball it's like you run out of time. Yes football, you know, whatever. So that's Okay, so Scott was a little bummed. I'm sure yeah, he was a little bit Was this other team really really good? I would say they were like equal. I mean obviously maybe a little bit better, but no, I mean they weren't like Way way better than everything. They could be them. Yeah, but Anyway, I went ahead so tonight. I'm going up to Scott's house

I'm gonna kind of help guide him to do like a voiceover of this game and everything. We're gonna post it tomorrow. But in the meantime, I was like, Tyman, can you get the video basically edited up to the point of like voiceover? And so Tyman just texted over like a little like intro. It's like, hey, what do you guys think of this?

And Scott said he's watched it 45 times. He is obsessed with it. And this is what started all this time It's been yeah Popping popping popping up lately because he squeezed the sponge dry He got the absolute most out of this pickleball tournament, and I know I'm hyping it up a lot right now But but that's what you want. I mean that okay. That's what I'm saying. It's it's great All right.

Put this in. Scotty, I can just imagine Scott doing the Petra Mahomes. Oh, wow. That's fun time. I love that. It's so hype and the sound design with the the audience cheering right in there, the beat with a little raindrop on like the backhand. That's awesome, dude.

Yeah, it's great. It's got said he can't stop watching it, but he gets mad every time he watches it because he now he he wishes they would have won. He's like, I can't believe this video is going to be so cool just to watch us lose. Dude, there was a time when I was in college. It was like right when I'm sorry for not knowing this better. DSLR. Yeah. I feel like it was right when those cameras were like becoming more affordable, more accessible. So all of a sudden people were taking like these incredible pictures everywhere. And I remember the university of Kansas who has always had a terrible football team, more or less, no offense to KU people.

They're editing their, their film people or whatever edited the coolest highlight videos for KU football football games. And I remember watching them and being like, holy cow, you would think by this video that these that this team won by 50 points. And instead they lost by 35. It was crazy some of the shots and the action and everything. Cause it's just like, yeah, when you make it a highlight video, you can make it look so cool. Yeah.

That's what's so funny about video editing. You take all this footage and with the right song and the right sound design, like anything could look cool or emotional or sentimental, you know, whatever you're going for. Right. You could probably create it. That's good.

Yeah, good work, Tymon. Thanks. Way to pop off, baby. Way to pop. Yep. Way to pop. Dirty pop. I had a guy at Lifetime the other day

hanging out in the old tub post-workout and there's another tub. There's like two big hot tubs and it was just me in one old tub post workout and there's another tub. There's like two big hot tubs and it was just me in one hot tub. This other guy, another, and he, I like made eye contact with them a few times. He's probably 55, 60 year old dude. And after like two minutes, he finally just goes, you're a cop, aren't you? I got one. I was like, uh, what? He's like, are you a police officer? I was like, no.

He's like, oh man, my dad was a cop and you just have that look to you. Oh, not even like he recognized you. No. He's like, you have that look to you. You look like you're serious, but you also know how to have a good time. You look like you like donuts, you pig. not a guy have a good time. You look like you like donuts. You pick going, going, going. And like, no, not a cop. He's like, you ever played a cop in a movie?

I thought you just you look like a cop. Yeah. You watch a lot of Brooklyn Nine-Nine. You tie your wife up. I feel like you have cop tendencies, man. I don't know, man. Got golden handcuffs, at least. I'm like, no, no. Yeah, it's like, I don't know what to do about black people, man. I don't know man. Got golden handcuffs at least. I'm like, no, no, whatever. Yeah. It's like, I don't know what you're about. Black people, man. I feel like you're, you're

kind of like a cop. It's right there. You know? Yeah. Oh man. Whatever. So that was just this week time. And you have clip. I don't know. That was so just not what I was expecting him to say. I just in general, why take a leap like that ever? Like especially if it's not from like a personal like, dude, it's embarrassing. I get pulled over a lot and you look just like this cop that's pulled me over twice. It's like, I don't know. Just you look. You have that look to you.

Used to be on drugs. You look like, I don't know. You just look like a guy who was like a one point was on drugs. Southwest Missouri, huh? Yeah. Yeah look like, I don't know, you just look like a guy who at one point was on drugs. Southwest Missouri, huh? Yeah, yeah, yeah, I can see it, yeah. It's like, what? Like, are you a lawyer? Ah, you just look rich.

I don't know, you look rich and stuck up. I don't know. No, you know, it could be worse. You look rich. And stuck up. That's not as fun. You a doctor? Why?

You, sorry, this is kinda weird, you donate a lot to charity? You just look like you, sorry, you just look generous. And the guy's like, actually no, and I feel really bad about it. I'm here spending my money at Lifetime instead, and I'm gonna get out of the tub now. Just think about how much water's in here, and how much of a water crisis we have worldwide.

And here we are. Yeah. Just well, I'm going to I'm going to skip my shower today, I guess. So I'm about thanks a lot. No, you're a cop. You're not a charity guy. It is so random. Like you a cop out of nowhere. Like what a what a way to start a conversation. You know, we need is

If I join lifetime you need to point this guy out to me I need to get in the hot tub one on one with him and I'll wait him out until he stereotypes me Okay, that would be so fun. Maybe that's his thing. I just gotta sit there. Hmm. Yeah You have a high pain tolerance ginger sleaze ball. Yeah, I Can't figure it out. No, no braces. Oh, I did have the thought. This is, this is where my weird brain goes. Sometimes is like, what if, uh, like you join lifetime cause every once in a while there was somebody that comes into like the hot tub after somebody else and their friends, but you can't really tell their friends at first, but then all of a sudden they get like closer than you would get to a stranger kind of thing.

Like, you know, like not like sitting super close, but like you and I would sit closer than you know, some random person I would sit. And I was like, what if like we did like, we like prank people essentially. And like one of us is in the hot tub for a good like six minutes beforehand. And the other guy comes in is just like way too close. And like, I'm like making, you know, one of us is making eye contact. Are you seeing this guy? Like, what's this guy doing? And finally, like it comes to it and you're like, dude, what is happening? What are you doing? You know, like, I don't know. I had that thought the other day. I don't know why I think like that. Yeah. That's kind of fun to think through like, basically a prank video without the video.

Just like what we just mess with. Just having fun. Yeah. Just mess with people. Yeah. Or just like, yeah, just messing in any kind of way. I hop in the hot tub. I'm like, dude, dude, check this out. I'm just being like over the top with,

showing you things on my phone or fill in the blank. It's kind of fun. Cause they don't know we know each other. Cause they don't know. Yeah. It's like on 21 when you know you give the certain signal and that's the prank we're doing crossed arms behind the chair means get out, get out now. Have you guys seen the videos of the it'll be like a POV camera of a guy who just goes into like a grocery store.

I feel like he's he'll specifically target like Amish or Mennonite people and just have like memes printed out. He'll say nothing. He'll just walk up, flip to the page and they're just like, what am I supposed to do? Oh, really? So funny. It's some of my favorite new like types of videos that come across or like it's funny that he says nothing I know yeah, no, I'm just in this walks away. Just enjoy it. Yeah, it's great

Does he take the booklet with them of the news or does he yeah? It'll be I've seen I think maybe multiple accounts do this But like one guy has like a binder of like laminated like memes or just like images of like strange internet like stuff And then some some people like print them out. It's great No, the only I've seen one where this like this black dude goes up and like strange internet like stuff. And then some people would like print them out. It's great. No, the only I've seen one where this like this black dude goes up and like he doesn't marry his black, whatever, but he is. That's why I'm describing him so that you maybe will know this video.

He like goes up this woman's like trying to pick out. You are a cop. Yeah, right. They're trying to pick out like beer or something. And he's like, Oh, I remember. I remember when I was alcoholic to, I, I'll, I just, just stay away, just stay away from it. And they're like, I'm not, she's like, I'm not alcohol. Hey, hey, hey, we all denied it first. It's okay.

And like, really like makes this woman mad and eventually she does not alcoholic. I'm throwing a party. I just, I party at one. Oh yeah. I know I said that too. Yeah It's something like that and then all of a sudden she's like gets mad and she doesn't buy alcohol like she like walks away Like I'll be praying for you. That's not a video. I haven't seen that. That's really good Yeah, he does it with other things too I think he'll just like come up and say random things to people like yeah Like almost assuming this thing kind of like this cop thing. I yeah I remember I was scared of the dark too. Like I'm not scared. Well, come on now yours. It's okay You don't have to be ashamed of it. So anyway, didn't know if you seen it.

Okay, I don't do that one reverse crunch Yeah, anyway timing. Anyway, time in. Yeah, after, I guess, yeah, like a week-ish, I think, so I've just been doing some basic workouts every single day.

Just like, haven't missed yet. Nice. I'll do, yeah, just basic body stuff, like push-ups and sit-ups and squats and stuff. And so I think what I've taken away is I want to have a bit more, because the workout stuff has been going great, but I haven't been like keeping track of what I've taken away is I want to have a bit more because the workout has been going great, but I haven't been like keeping track of what I've been eating or like really trying to eat a lot.

So I think that's for next week. I'm going to try to eat more, keep track of it, but the workouts are going great. So I haven't like seen any difference, but it's been a week. So yeah, they say that you're supposed to see results immediately, I think. So you might not be doing it right. I think so you might not be doing it, right? I think yeah. Yeah, I think I need to do something That's like kind of a common knowledge thing like you will see results all like right away Mm-hmm.

You probably need some like supplemental protein though. I've been thinking about that. Like I want to get something more than just like food because I, I just don't naturally get anywhere near the like what I want to eat. I feel like. Dude, go. Do you want to get something more than just like food because I I just don't naturally get anywhere near The like what I want to eat. I feel like dude.

That's good. Yeah, it's not bad at all. Yeah. Yeah. It feels like healthy, but a bit of protein in there. But yeah. And that one has a ton of crud in there in, like, a good way. Like Bobby's protein is it's like a few vitamins and like a protein and most of this is like it's like I used to take

iron pills because it wasn't getting iron from my red meat. And this has iron in it. This has like magnesium in it. It has a bunch of crud, some would say. Bunch of good stuff. Bunch of crud. Sorry. Or I had a couple of moments where I was like,

I just need to get more protein. I just poured a glass of milk, a big glass of milk and put just a scoop of protein powder in there and tried to mix it up and drink it. And it was disgusting. I was like, I think I need to find better protein. I just like what we happened to have with flavor, uh, vanilla, maybe it was not great. And I was like, I just, I put a straw in it. I was like, I'm just going to drink it as fast as I can till like the flavor only

hits to like three fourths in. And so then it was like, I only had the last fourth. That was really bad. Uh, but I'm going to find a different solution. But I'd got like, I mean, that was maybe with all the milk and the protein, it was like, I don't know, like a lot of calories and a lot of protein. So I don't know, but yeah, it was not great. Yeah. Yeah. I don't know. Probably a lot of that peanut butter is pretty high in calories. Yeah. But I don't know. I don't know what the right answer is to like bulk versus just like gain weight. You know what I mean? Yeah. Like, yeah, go to McDonald's. But it's like, well, that's probably not a good idea if you're trying to like do the right things. Yeah. So I don't know either. That's why I put you on the spot. Yeah, I don't know. I've never I've never tried to do that. That sounds awesome. Yeah. You just talked to Chachipi T. Yeah. Hey, I'm an 18 year old trying to gain weight theater Do lunges with your gay friends Do do squats while you're waiting, you know, I don't know singing sound of music. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. We'll get an update on that later

Flav City Bobby approved or whatever Bobby parish I don't know. Well, singing, sound of music. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We'll get an update on that later. Flav City, Bobby approved or whatever. Bobby Parrish. Yeah, I tried it one day and the taste was like super, it was just like the amount of milk it requires for a scoop is just like way more, so it just like, it just sat heavier than like other protein I've tried. It was fine, but I was in love with it. But then I looked later on Amazon,

I was giving Rachel a hard time because it's marketed, at least what Rachel bought, as a meal replacement for women. I was like, this is what you think of me? You're doing me a nice gesture. Hey, I got you some protein. A lot of girls I follow recommend it. I was like, oh, great, thanks. Yeah, meal replacement for women.

That's what she's helping me full of. Meal replacement though, so he does fill you up more I guess it what it's just it's mainly milk. It's just a lot of milk. Yeah But no, it's fine. I found some other stuff. I like I'm trying also bought some or game Uh-huh. It's got like a million five-star reviews on Amazon like gotta be good. That's what I use and I like it a lot I don't Catherine doesn't think it's the best one, but I don't care. I'm drinking. Drinking. Yeah.

Anyway, so it's crazy. So today is Thursday. So I'm like three and a half days in to my shred journey. And you're seeing results. Yeah, I know what Tymon's doing wrong. Yeah. No, I mean, similar to the mile, all the results I'm seeing right now

have nothing to do with like muscles or things like that. It's like, I don't even know where to begin. So the main thing is just like this Monday by noon, I was already like, whoa, this is so much more than running a mile a day. Just like the amount of like that it takes to completely change your diet and to work out for an hour. I mean, just like the mentally just thinking through your plan for the day, like, all right, okay, I guess I'm gonna like,

eat this for breakfast. Yeah, I'll mix this stuff in here, and then I'll go work out. And then that's its whole thing in itself, which muscles today and how many reps and how many sets, you do all that. And it's your first time being in a weight room since high school, so you're trying to figure out like,

all right, what does, it says leg row. All right, which one is that? You know, you don't have- It's called something different here. Yeah, well, this looks like the same thing, a cable row extension. I think that'll work the same thing. And then you come home and then you gotta start planning

like, all right, I'm supposed to be getting a lot of protein, you know, so it's just like, man, this is so much more. But four days in, absolutely loving it. Loving the journey. I love working out, but 4 days in, absolutely loving it. Loving the journey. I love working out, I love my meals, I love drinking protein, I'm all in.

You're all in. Yeah, I love it. You're a meathead. I am. Big meat guy. Big meat guy, good ranchers. Holy cow. Holy crap.

Anyway, a lot of other thoughts. Shout out to the ghosties. So many have reached out. It's super, super helpful. Even just like friends. I mean, Courtney Miller sent me a lot. Garrett Gibson sent me a lot. I'm not even going to remember all the names of people. Mitchell Bowser sent me some really encouraging stuff.

He's like, you just started, but you're already motivating me to start doing this. And who else? Graham Dodd sent me stuff. Brooke Boverhoff. She's been helpful. I mean, just there's. He's ever helped me out Oh, yeah, it is cool. Like it is like a common thread. It seems like with a lot of people there They really care about this stuff. Yeah

Yeah, it's been fun. So I'm I'm sore But yeah four days in been at a calorie deficit every day, okay, but I've had like a hundred and 80 grams of protein every single day, but I've had like 180 grams of protein every single day. Which that is so calorie deficit is the way you lose weight, but consuming a lot of protein is the way you don't lose muscle. Is that correct? That's what I understand. Okay.

So you can like no matter scientifically, if you have less calories going in and coming out, you will lose weight or you will like, but it just depends on what you're losing. Like if you're burning fat or if you're burning, I don't know about muscle, but like, yeah, I've kind of heard like no matter what, if I don't eat very much, I will lose weight. But if I'm eating the wrong things, if I'm eating, okay, fine. I'll just have one McDonald's hamburger every day. And it's like, okay, then you're just going to like, like I've heard the term skinny fat. You heard that term? Like, no, but I knew a guy in high school who was that. Yeah. AKA like just doesn't work out probably, or doesn't do like, doesn't

have any protein in his diet or whatever. It doesn't have enough. So yeah, cause I was curious about that. It was like, depending on what your goals were, I was like, I'm sure you are supposed to be in a calorie deficit to an extent, but like, I don't know how much for, cause you're trying to gain muscle, like get lean. So I don't know. I didn't, I didn't know how much that was requiring. I did that scan and they still haven't sent me my results, but I did look on the computer when she was first showing me this girl really liked me. She gave me a free like infrared scan afterwards. Okay. I was like, great. Sure. It's like this 3d scan where I went in a circle. Oh, I didn't really like seeing like a 3D mold of my body from different angles.

Oh yeah. Yeah. I was like, Oh, I'll do just the X-ray next time. But it was nice that she offered that for free. Oh yeah. I would not enjoy that at all. Yeah. I just stripped down and you know, going a little circle and then they show me afterwards. Here's you. There you are. Gosh. That's one of those famous elephants. I don't like my lower back at all. Yeah. But I did see part of the screen on the Dexys game and I think it said I had 27% body fat. Okay.

So there's there's room to lose some fat. I'm you know, I'm probably 1015 pounds. Okay. Overweight. So I think if I'm in a calorie deficit for a little bit, you know, for a month, let's see if I cool look any different. But a little bit, you know, for a month, let's see if I Cool. Look any different.

But yeah, that's what I'm saying. So help me understand one other thing. Macros. It's it's carbs, fats, protein. Each of them is a percentage and the three of them together add up to 100%. Okay. Right. I think so.

I'm pretty sure that's how it works. Okay. So everyone's a little different. Like I go 30. OK, right. I think so. I'm sure it's how it works. OK, so everyone's a little different. Like I go 30, 30, 40. I go, you know, 40, 20, 40, whatever. Is the goal to hit those exactly? Is it like a minimum? Are you supposed to get close to them? Like I think from what I understand,

I'm always like cavity out of that because I don't want people to be like, Brad doesn't know he's talking about. From what I understand, it is to hit those things and also hit your calorie goal, like or be lower than your calories, whatever. Like, so it's kind of a game of like, okay. Yeah, that's what I like about this whole thing is one big equation, which is cool. Yeah. And so, yeah, I think it's just depending on what you're valuing, what you're looking

to be the best at or not the best at, but like prioritizing, like, yeah, make sure you hit your protein and then hopefully you'll hit your fat and your carbs as well or whatever. Like Catherine's a big fan of the idea of like fat for fuel, like using this. I'm learning so much. Yeah. It like wants me to have more fat. I'm like, that's crazy. No problem.

Because it's the word fat. And therefore it's like, that's bad. I want me to have more fat. I'm like, that's crazy. No problem. Cause it's the word fat. And so therefore it's like, that's bad. You want me to do more? But there's, there's value in like good carbs, bad carbs, good fats, bad fats, whatever, all these different things. So I don't, I think so. I think what you're asking is correct. Yeah. You're supposed to hit, you're supposed to hit your goals of those macros. But obviously you can hit those macros and you have a ton of carbs and those carbs be ice cream. And then all of a sudden you're having 4,000 calories

in a day and that's not good. So. The biggest thing for me right now is I never hit my carbs. Cause all I have is chicken and protein shakes. Yes. So there's no carbs. That's what I kind of accidentally did as well,

which is kind of like keto. Like I think essentially. Like I think it's very high on fats and protein and like who cares about like who cares about how Much fat you have as long as you hit your protein or whatever. I don't know that could be oversimplifying it but like Yeah, I still have a lot to learn but I've enjoyed what I've learned so far Yes, Rachel I think even made some point that she's like if there's one you're gonna have less of carbs is probably the best one to not you know be filling up but

Anyway, it's cool. If anyone out there is like thinking about it, here's what the thing I've been most surprised by is I burn more calories than I eat every single day. And I'm like probably like accidentally intermittent fasting and I'm not going to bed hungry. I've been shocked by this. Yeah. That I'm not starving. Yeah. Dude, if you ever have like a like every once in a while,

I whatever don't fall off the wagon by any means, like every once in a while, I, whatever, don't fall off the wagon by any means, but every once in a while I'm like, like there was a month ago or whatever we went to Cane's after we recorded one time. It was like, yeah, I'm not going to say no. I'm not going to be like, yeah, I gotta go home. It's like, yeah, I'll have Cane's like you realize like how much bad food does not fill you up and how much good food does fill you up. Yeah, it's true.

I mean, it's like exactly what you're saying. It's like, I am so full. I'm so, I don't need more food right now versus like you have three McDonald's hamburgers. I keep throwing McDonald's on the bus, but like, and it's just like, I could eat three more right now. You know, so. Yeah, it's just been, I mean, I'm so, so new to all this,

but there's just so much to intake and to learn and to think about. And I'm in the kitchen way more than I ever was. Just like, so new to all this, but there's just so much to intake and to learn and to think about. And I'm in the kitchen way more than I ever was. Just like, and not even that much still, but like preparing a breakfast, lunch, and dinner for my, not always dinner, but at least two meals a day preparing for myself and two protein shakes a day and cleaning out the blender.

You know, so I am on top of the dishes. I've never done so many dishes in my life. That sink is clean. Those dishes in the dishwasher are clean. Like I'm all over it. All of a've never done so many dishes in my life. That sink is clean. Those dishes in the dishwasher are clean. Like I'm all over it. All of a sudden it's like, this is my kingdom. Yes. And I think Rachel is loving four day Jake.

So she made some comment last night. She said, oh, how does she word it? She said, I can't believe you're turning into the exact guy I wanted. And I didn't even have to ask or something like that. She was like, I mean, you were always just perfect for me. And you were so nice to me and made me laugh so much. And I didn't really care about anything else.

But I was like, trying to get you to eat a salad every now and then. Yeah, try this and look at you now. I didn't even ask. Right. Yeah. That was like, I think that is there's a lot to say about motivation. And like, if you're if someone makes you run because you're in cross-country The sport that's not very fun But if you want to run on your own if you want to work out on your own she's way different there is 100% I don't know what like if I were like hey Jake you better go work out right now. You'd be like I'll do it when I want to get you bro

like yeah It's like it's this weird mental thing of like you can't tell me what to do and if I it now, then I'm just doing what you're wanting me to do. Even though in your head, you're like, I did kind of want to work out. Yeah. Even though that is good advice and I would love some accountability, I'm not going to do it. Cause then if I look better, he could take credit for it. Dude, that is so like, yeah, that's a great principle in marriage, Rachel. I hope, I don't know for whatever reason, like when we first hope, I don't know, for whatever reason, like when we first married, I think we both tried to change each other all the time. Like, I just want you to be on time all the time. I just want you to do this.

I want you to be more organized. I want you to love me in this way. And it was like, you can't, I can't change like that just in on a dime. But then all of a sudden when you stop like trying to do those things and just like, okay, I'll just do, I'll just love you and who you are. And you know, all of a sudden then it's like, you know what? I think let's try to be more on time. Like I don't like that. We're late, you know, like, okay, great. Let's figure this out. You know, you wore her down is what you're saying. Kind of by break. I mean, that's what Rachel did to you. You wrote it. Yeah. Just like, okay, Brad's on time and he doesn't seem as stressed when he's leaving places. Yeah. It's like, maybe we should try to do that more, you know, whatever.

This is one example. But I, yeah, I remember when we were first married, Catherine said something like, I'm not like, I, your job is not to change me. And I think at the time I was like, yes, it is. Like we're trying to make each other better. Yeah. Iron sharpens iron. Yeah. And I don't know.

I don't know what the biblical theology behind that is, but I'm like, I don't think my job is to change you. My job is to love who you are. And if you change, great. I don't know. But yeah, I think Rachel and I try very little by little. Like I knew Rachel and I were very different in so many ways. Like I'm not going to change a lot of these things about her, the way her brain works and the way she's, you know, disorganized and loses her purse and her phone six times

a day. But there are like little things that I try to like instill like little habits of like, what if you tried, what if for three days you tried keeping your journal in the same spot? She's like, I can do that. I can do that. And she like gets excited about it. Like, all right, we're going to do it.

We're going to keep our journal in the same spot for three days in a row. Doing like a pump up speech. We're going to keep our journals there. Right? Right. Yeah. Yeah. She's like, I know it's scary. You're going to try it all off. I was like, it is scary. You're trying all of, I'd rather keep my journal in the same spot to try it all. Dude, uh, I got a microcosm of that. Just the wonderfulness of Rachel last Thursday. Okay. So I think we've talked it was after the podcast after recorded, but she went to a workout

class with Catherine early in the morning. Oh yeah. That morning. Why don't you tell you want to tell the story? Oh yeah. Oh yeah. I kind of forgot about that. The fact that you forgot makes it like just another day.

So, yeah, people please. Your Rachel goes to a five forty five a.m. workout class with Emily Duckworth and Catherine, because that's when they want to go. That's when they can go over. It was like, oh, I don't want to miss that. Well, what she gets done and she's like an hour and a half until school. So it's kind of like waking up early just to like sit around for a little bit. But during that time, I have I have a wrinkle to that. Sorry, I just like all really personal.

It's not personal, but we're just telling Rachel's story. Whatever. Is it OK? We talk about this? Yeah. OK. Apparently, Emily, Emily's the instructor for the class. Oh, that's what it was. Yeah, Emily. It was Emily's class. Yes. And Emily, like one of the things for Fusion Fitness that she has to do is. Powerlif. I'm so sorry. It's called Main Street Roasters.

Get it right. I listened back to that. I was like, I can't believe myself. That was not a bit at all, I promise. Neither time. Power life? Yes. OK.

Power life. So Emily instructs the class. And then I guess there's locker rooms there that have showers and stuff, but she has to stay until everyone in her class is done. Oh yeah. And so, and so Catherine was telling me like, you know, of course, Rachel would love to just kill some time and take her time and curl her hair. And I think she was playing on like, well, just take an hour to get ready. How great will that be?

Like, yeah, nice. Like go slow. And then she hears like, oh, but Emily has to stay here until everyone's done. Great. And so then I think there was like two people, you know, showering or whatever. And so Rachel's like, okay, maybe this first takes a while. She didn't take a while. So, so then I think she went and got coffee or something. Right? Yeah. So she's like, I think rushing out. And I don't remember the exact details of the story, but I think she took her fitness ring and then her wedding ring off to work out in. Showers, gets ready, gets in her car,

I think drives to coffee, is like almost to school. Maybe it gets to school and realizes, oh my gosh, I don't have my rings. I don't remember even putting them on. I'm almost positive I left them in Power Life. She goes in, school hasn't started yet, but she goes to her principal like, hey, I can't find my wedding ring.

Her principal's like, go back and get it. Her principal's super cool. And so Rachel goes back, or first she calls Power Life, and I think it's like, hopefully someone will be there. And it was like, do you remember the guys, his name was like Rodney or Ralph. It was one of those names, it started with an R and it was like, oh yeah, you're older.

It was a name like that, we'll call him Ralph, Ralph's funny. And it sounded like a janitor's name, but turns out it's like he is an instructor. I just can't imagine Ralph looking like Emily Duckworth. Also just a man instructor. An older male fitness instructor. You know, not the part.

You a cop Ralph? Yeah, maybe more like a cop. You got a mustache Ralph? I can hear it over the phone. So I think Rachel first calls is like, Hey, would you mind checking? I think I left my wedding ring in the locker room. Ralph goes, yeah, men's or women's. It was like, why don't you tell me

which one you think it is? Yeah, what are you saying about my voice here? Yeah, are you a cop? No, so she's like, women's. And so he checks and is like, I didn't see anything. So Rachel's like, well, didn't feel like Ralph gave it his best, I'm gonna go back and check myself. But then she said, also it might be in the parking lot,

she thought. Oh yeah. And she's like, but I parked really far away. So I felt really bad, I'd be like it might be in the parking lot, she thought. Oh yeah. She's like, but I parked really far away. That's why I felt really bad. Be like, it's in the parking lot, maybe far. And I think he even said like, yeah, I'm not going to go look for. Yeah, it's pretty cold. I'm not going to go take the parking lot. Yeah, forgot he said that. Okay. Thanks Ralph.

And so Rachel gets there, parks in her old spot and just starts looking around for her wedding ring. Rummaging. There's all the snow on the ground. It's like kind of sunrise time. She said every bit of looking around for her wedding ring. Rummaging. There's all this snow on the ground. It's like kind of sunrise time. She said every bit of snow looked like a wedding ring. Everything is just shiny. I mean, the snow is just glistening on the ground

in a wide open parking lot. And I was like, this is playing golf in the fall. Golfers know everything, every little leaf looks like a golf ball. It's the same exact thing. She's like, everything looks like a wedding ring. I look for probably 10, 15 minutes in the cold, can't find it.

I go in, Ralph lets me in, I check through the women's locker room, can't find in there either. She was like, I was already thinking in my head what I was gonna say to you and how I was gonna figure this out. And in the end, she realized her purse has a zipper at the bottom of it.

And it fell through there and it was wadded up in a tissue. So it was wad up in a tissue and fell out the bottom of her purse. And to Rachel's credit, she was really annoyed, like, why is there a zipper at the bottom? It's the bottom of a pocket in her purse. We did find out the reason for it. It's to like, if you're flying with it,

it's like to put it over your suitcase handle. It's kind of a little I would not have guessed It's not good for that. I know yeah, so it's like okay at least it has some purpose I have seen like the bottom zipper But for the most part a bottom zipper feels like you're doing the opposite of what I want you to do right Yeah, I want you to stay closed at all times. It's a point of the pocket. Yeah So yeah, she lost her, you know wedding ring for like but where was it 45 minutes. It was in the tissue in her car. Yes, okay.

That's what I remember too. And I was like, maybe I'm misremembering. Yeah, it was in her car the whole time. And it was her rental car, AKA one that did not have a ton of stuff in it. It wasn't like, oh, there's probably a bunch of stuff here. Like, yeah. And it was in her car.

And then she's telling us this whole story before we're watching Beast games. And then you're like, oh yeah, by the way, Rachel, I threw away a massive wheel of cheese that you had in your car. And she's like, what? That was good cheese. And you're like, it's been going to be the mechanics for like five days. I thought I was doing you a favor. Yeah, apparently she bought this massive like thing from Costco It wasn't a wheel. I think it was a wedge of cheese. Yeah and Yeah, whatever. She was like, but she forgot it in her car. It's just like the like those are Rachel things

Oh, yeah Yeah, she had me go to the Ford dealership because before she went to Milwaukee last week and she's like Can you go get my gloves and this scarf and a couple of things from her car? It's as I'm rummaging through trying to find it. I look under a wreath in the trunk and find this wedge of cheese. And I didn't even know it was cheese at first because it's like the outside is like not the right word. It's like breaded almost the outside of it's like like it was it red. Yes, that red stuff.

Oh, yeah. Girls, but the wax is kind of wax. Something maybe some little garnish. OK. And the name of it was it red. Yes that red stuff. Oh, yeah girls, but like the wax it's kind of wax something Maybe some little garnish. Okay, and the name of it was like Cheve Blanc things, you know, it was like a wine name. Okay. I don't even know what I'm looking at Is this like a toy for one of her kids? I Think it's cheese. I think we got cheese on our hands here. And so I was like, yeah I'm gonna do her favor and throw that out and Yeah, she's like that was nice. And she's trying to get Catherine.

And so I'm like, Catherine, like, you know, like the Trader Joe's, you know, whatever. Like, oh, yeah, that is nice. You threw away that cheese. It's like, yeah, I threw away the cheese. Throw away the cheese, yeah. So it's great. I'm used to all of it.

I mean, I'm just, I asked Rachel last week. I was like, we did a fun schmores today. It was like places you set things down on. What would your first pick be? And she goes, wherever my socks land when I throw them. Oh, skip a beat. Well, that is one of my biggest pet peeves with Catherine is that it's like, it's like the rapture happens

to her feet every single day. It's like, why are your socks here? Why are your socks here? She's like, well, I didn't want them to get dirty when I walked outside or I didn't want them to, you know, Oh, interesting. She's like removing them for functional use. Yeah. But then she never picks them up. Then I'm like, well, just put them in the dirty clothes. She's like, well, I'll wear them again. I'm like, well, then where am I? Can I go now? It kills me, dude. And sometimes it's like she takes them off and then she

puts them on the chair. And I'm like, well, why are you putting them on this? Well, they don't want to be on the ground. Oh, man. So interesting. Rachel's is like part of her nighttime routine. It's like maybe go in the bathroom, wash your face, take her contacts out, come back down, get under a blanket, start reading. And then when it feels like we're getting a little sleepy, it's up and just chuck them. She always tries to get them in the bedroom, but they could be anywhere. They might hit the right wall,

they might hit the left wall, they might hit the TV, but I mean, they get chucked every night and the goal is to go through the door. Does she fold them up like a ball? No, they're not folded. They're just in the hand. So not aerodynamic at all. They just go and they spread. It's a shotgun blast It's great though. Wherever my socks land. Wherever my socks land. Yeah, that was her first answer. That's awesome. We watching Beast Games, bro

It's tonight. Oh Unfortunately, I'm ruining the vibe. What? Scott can't do a voiceover without me Apparently blame it on him. That hurts Jake I'm ruining the vibe. What? Scott can't do a voiceover without me. Oh. Apparently. Blame it on him. That hurts, Jake. Yeah, so I'm going up to Scott's tonight. I'm gonna bring him like a,

And when I say hour, I mean your. Any tech tips? On Instagram? Yep. I don't know. I should make one. I've been thinking about like if I had more spare time I would make YouTube videos. I'd make Instagram videos. I just don't have much like Time to do that. Mm-hmm, but I don't know. I'm always pushing you to create more for yourself. I would like to see it

Yeah, but also don't stop working for us really need that too. Yeah it's so hard when you literally create for other people all the time. Like I stopped posting once I went full time with Trey. Yeah. Well, because it feels like this is a waste of money. Yes. Like time is money. Yeah.

It feels like weird to say it, but it's like, I feel like if I'm spending all this time that otherwise for someone else, I'd be getting paid for. It's like, even though I like this, it feels like a bit of a waste of time. Yeah, dude, but even if I really like the end result. Yeah this this This basement renovation. It's like it's doing all the things I kind of enjoy woodworking wise But instead of like knowing like I'm spending $100 to make $300 It's like I'm spending $100 to lose $100, you know, it's like yeah Like I don't I don't mind the work as much as I'm like, yeah, but at the end of it, I mean, I add value to my house, I guess, but I'm not adding value

like literally like in my hand, the opportunity cost of like, and the opportunity cost fill in the blank, getting an order for a table or yeah, ghost earners getaway is things like that. It's like, right. Yeah. It's harder to get up for it. Okay. Yeah, exactly. We saw on pace for Super Bowl Oh, I hope so brother. I she's got to win first They're gonna know I was kidding I have no doubt percent chance 105 Scott It's so funny watching a football game with Scott had been a few weeks

I had forgotten you watch a game with Scott and there'll be a close call like, man, did you catch that or not? We're all like, Brad and I are pretty objective. I don't know. I think we're calling it a catch. There is a 0% chance they end up calling that a catch. 0% chance.

He did say that. He's like, there was a 0% chance that's a catch. And then we watch it for like five more seconds and we're like, that was a catch. And they did call it a catch. It was like a 90% chance that's a catch. And then we watch it for like five more seconds. And we're like, that was a catch. And they, they did call it a catch. It was like a 90% chance it is. Yeah. I think I'm very proud of the way that you and I are very objective. And I don't think that's, I think, I think we're very good at it. And of course there's all this chatter about how the chiefs just are like, so sabotage or whatever, not the opposite of sabotage, blessed by the refs. Yeah, they're favored, it's rigged.

And I think you and I, whatever, people can rile up all they want. Who knows what happened to Buffalo or against Buffalo, but like maybe we got a million more calls, but I don't think that any of them have been terrible calls. I'll say it. Yeah, I mean, we could probably go off on this for a little bit.

But here's the condensed version, is one you want to look at the Texans game. I'll admit as a cheese fan. Yes, those calls were a little ticky tacky. They were not great. But you know what else they were? They were in the first half. One of them was on first and 10.

You pick that sportsman like conduct flag up. Guess what? It's second and five. Yeah. Did that change the outcome of the game? Yeah. First and second five. Yeah. And I mean, yeah, there's a million other things that Texans O line was awful They got they missed like an extra point at PAT I mean the refs didn't decide that game, but I still I still do believe that those calls were the right calls Personally, I think that they were soft. Mm-hmm. They weren't like holy cow They almost concussed Patrick Mahomes, But it was like, their helmet hit his helmet.

Therefore, that's a penalty. By the letter of the rule, that's a penalty. Yeah. And I think most people are rational. It's like politics, where you think like, man, the left is thinking this and the right is thinking this, when in reality, those are the crazies that you really hear about.

And most people are in the middle like, yeah, there's probably some nuance to it. I think most sports fans are probably like, yes, Patrick Holmes is really good. And yes, referees make mistakes pretty often. But because he's in prime time TV more than anyone else, it looks worse than anyone else. Because the data doesn't back it up.

Chiefs fans have all seen the stats. I don't know how widespread it is, but yeah, the Chiefs are in the bottom five of roughing the passer calls since 2018. They're in the bottom 10 and like penalties, like aiding them, penalties giving them first downs. They have the most penalty yards ever in a playoff game and it was in a Super Bowl, you know, like that we like committed, like,

you can't find a stat that shows the chiefs have been favored with calls. But as we had to explain to Scott, this is how the internet works. Oh, that was that not a hilarious conversation. That was great. I really enjoyed that. Yeah. Let's like Scott just can't. I mean, he's not on social media very often. I thought you were going to say the spectrum. He's just, I can't find it right now. Oh, here it is.

He just, he, first of all, used his Bleacher Report for his app. And apparently on Bleacher Report, there's like all these like suggested tweets. And so I think he does kind of see Twitter from or X whatever on there. But that's about all the social media. I think he gets quick sidebar. I'm thinking of it. The NFL subreddit banned Twitter links as I think like an anti Elon thing. I don't know if that's going to become more widespread. We're like Reddit just bans Twitter links.

I don't really understand it yet. This is all happening kind of in real time. But anyway, keep going. They just you cannot click on a link, which that's pretty much all red. It is. It's like here's the here's this trade. Here's this headline. Here's this highlight. It's like we don't have Twitter links. What's reddit anymore? Oh, geez. Yeah, kind of interesting We'll see how it plays out. But yeah, I want you to explain Scott thing from start to finish. I mean, yeah He's just not on social media very often. So therefore But whatever I don't think it's I don't think that's the main cause of it

I think he's just not quite as used to it is what I'm trying to say it's just Scott being Scott Scott's been this way forever where it's like, he gets so riled up about everything. Like, like playing sport, like growing up, we would play sports and he would know the number of the point guard on the other team and how annoying he was and how, what he said. And he would remember, dude, I can't wait to get number 28 back. I can't wait to, you know, like that was so cheap. They got so lucky. Like you know, like that was so cheap. They got so lucky. Like he's always like so fired up.

It's like Michael Jordan. He's like creating an edge for himself. I think maybe that's what it is, I guess. But that edge never led to championships for us. We did not find the victory that Mahomes or- Your last dance was just homecoming. Last dance, prom. Yeah, so anyway, like, so Scott texts all these different Last dance was just homecoming. Last day is prom. Yeah.

So, uh, anyway, like, so Scott texts all these different, like he texts this long thing because all these people were hating on the chiefs and all this stuff. And he's like, did the chief, did the, did the refs do this? Did the refs do that? I was like, Scott, like just don't, why are you so worried about what everyone else is saying? Uh, and then he texts this link about how Mark Andrews, I know we're getting into sports a lot,

Mark Andrews who's the tight end who lost the game essentially for the Ravens, we'll call it that. He dropped a ball with very little time left that could have scored for them. Right, and he also fumbled earlier in the game. Yeah. On a pretty crucial time. If you're the other team, which is the Bills,

you were probably like, wow, shout out Mark Andrews. Thanks Mark Andrews. Yeah, cause you kind of helped us win the game. All right. That's kind of the context. Right. And so he sends this screenshot that from ESPN, the thing says, Bill's fans have already donated $32,000 to a charity that Mark Andrews supports. And then on ESPN's caption, it says amazing gesture from Bill's mafia. And Scott says, do we caption, it says, amazing gesture from Bill's mafia. And Scott says, do we really think this is an amazing gesture or Bill's mafia absolutely trolling Mark Andrews for handing them the game?

And I'm like, I was at the gym and I think you and I both were like, I mean, that's definitely trolling. Yeah. Yeah. How could you see it any other way? And then, yeah, I'm like, it's genius trolling. Cause if anyone, you know, says like, what are you doing? It's like, well, I'm donating to charity, man. Like you can't hate me for that, you know, says like, what are you doing? It's like, well, I'm donating to charity, man. Like you can't hate me for that, you know, whatever.

And then Scott says, I cannot believe ESPN thinks this is a genuine gesture. I was like, oh my gosh. And I just respond, I cannot believe you're giving into their bait of thinking they believe it's a genuine gesture. And then Scott triples down and he's like, no, I think they think that.

And then we're having to, right. write or like having to explain to Scott how like sensationalism journalism works basically and how like outraged media works. I was like, yeah, notice how every article that's trending is a negative article saying something kind of ridiculous because that's the thing that gets the engagement. And then you just text. I feel like we're one step away from having to explain the entire internet to Scott. So anyway, it was a great interaction. It is fun to like, you know, whatever. Scott is one of the smarter guys. I know like growing up, he was so smart in school, but man, sometimes he is daft. You can get really wrapped up in that stuff.

So, good stuff. Good stuff. I can't tell if we've been recording for 15 minutes or two hours. It's gone by fast today. Hour 20. You're joking me. Yeah, explain the art to Scott. How was your fitness journey, Brad?

How your workouts been? My workouts have been fine. Nothing crazy. I'm just, my goal, my win is just to continue to just do something and like get in a rhythm to the point where it's like, I miss it if I don't do it kind of thing. So I'm not necessarily trying to track,

one day I did this many pounds, the next day I'm doing, like I'm not trying to do that necessarily. Just trying to get sweaty, get shreddy. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. You still in cardio every day? Nope, not really. I mean, I'm not, I'm not being great at it. Honestly, I, I try, but cardio to me is normally walking and walking for 45 minutes is yeah. Like you're saying sometimes, like that's a lot of long time to like, it's not just 45 minutes, it's 45 minutes, but then you get sweaty or you have to bundle up and you have to shower and you have to whatever. So like, or you go to lifetime and it's 15 minutes there, you know, whatever. So that's a big takeaway for me is not only the time it takes to get in shape and to eat well, but just like the cost, like the cost of eating healthier. That's been well documented. I think most people know that, but even just the cost of like protein or creatine

or a shaker or a blender, it's just like, man, it's just like, there's a lot of upfront cost to like getting in shape. Upfront and just consistent costs. Like it's not like it goes away eventually. I mean, and you can make arguments of like, you don't have to have a gym membership. You don't have to buy this thing.

You buy whatever. Like, but yes, it is like a, like I made the conscious decision that I did not want to use that as my excuse. When I started all this stuff, I was like, I'm not going to be like, it's too expensive. So therefore I'm going to go once again to McDonald's. I'm going to like McDonald's is cheap. You can, and you know, whatever people want you to stay unhealthy so that you can spend more money elsewhere. So anyway, yeah, it's good. It's everything's good. No, no complaints. I'll say, I think you have probably someone indirectly but are subconsciously, but also consciously motivated me too of like, well,

I can't like, I can't get worse when Jake gets better. You know what I mean? Like it's like, I'm not trying to like compete with you or whatever, but I'm like, well, I don't want to be like the odd one out here. I gotta, I gotta make sure I'm, I'm not like slacking. So. Iron sharpens iron. That's what they say, bro. We all get better. It's like, it's like God knew what he was talking about. It's like it's how we're wired. Yeah, so Anyway, yeah, it's it's been good. So cool. Fun Shall we do our reviews of the week? Shall we? We shall. Anyway, yeah, it's it's been good. So cool. Yeah fun Shall we do our reviews of the week? Shall we we shall?

I Always need to pull them up again, excuse me You're excused as I try to find one. So no, I screen-shotted it I'm seeing the before pictures that I had Rachel take. All right. Just almost as bad as the. I'm gonna take your screenshot. Mine is Belieber for life, mindless in the best way. I usually listen to podcasts to learn something, faith, intrusion, advice and wellness, et cetera. But sometimes your brain is thinking about too much all the time.

It's easy to veg out with TV or especially social media, but it's pretty mind numbing and can get boring and feel unrewarding. Ghost Runners is the type of podcast you can listen to and not worry about zoning out. It's mindless in the best way. You might learn something, but it's really there for you to laugh and chill out. It's not hard to follow along with and I love that it's clean and they never shy away from saying they go to church.

We go to church. We go to church. So what was that song that came out in high school? If you scared, go to church. Is that Lil Jon? Yep, that one. Lil Jon. I don't know. I don't know if you're scared go to church. Yeah, no, no one ever made it to Aletha I think it was like Lil Jon the Eastside Boys. Someone like that. Sean Paul, Fat Joe, someone like that.

If you scared, if you scared, go to church. Also T-Pain had a song called Church. I really like that song. You know about that one? I didn't, I never was a T-Pain guy. Sorry dude. I never got on the autotune train. Never a T-Pain guy?

I mean, I don't like hear T-Pain and say, turn that off! But yeah, I've never... Buy you a drink is tea pain. I kind of know it. That was fine. Okay. But he's got some other ones that are great. Church, church, church is so fun. I remember back in the day I convinced my mom genuinely. It was not like me thinking like, I'm going to pull one over on my mom. I got the Kanye West like college dropout. Whatever, whatever song, whatever one had Jesus walks on it. I was convinced that Kanye West was like,

he's a Christian rapper. Yeah, he repented, he turned away. So I, yeah, and it had explicit content, I think on the CD. Well, he's about to double during that part. It's edited version, yeah, so. What are you doing after this? You have a drive? You going somewhere?

Can, why? I'm just trying to, I want, I'm gonna send you church so you play it in your car and you get to listen to it as you're driving somewhere. Okay, great, send it to me. It's fun in high school. Mine's from 11 Stepa. I've only been listening to Ghost Hunters

for a couple years now. I don't know why I said only. They didn't put that in the review. I filled in that word myself. Please throw them out of the bus there. Like, man, I think I've done a pretty good job. Yeah. Because I was like, why'd they put only?

Oh, they didn't. I added that. Finally decided it's time for a review. And the way Jake and Brad involve you in their life is awesome. You feel like one of their closest friends on a first name basis with all their friends and family. The biggest lesson from the podcast for me is family. Family. Both Jake and Brad show an immense love for their families. Family. As a parent of three, I know it's not always sunshine,

but the way Brad speaks of his home with positivity always finds wins. And even the little minuscule traditions and moments inspires me to do the same thing with my family. Family. I love hearing Jake's stories of Rachel and their life they're building together. You can hear the appreciation and love for his wife every time he talks about her. Her. Thank you for your dedication to the pod. And can't forget timing. I went to home school because of you and especially good boy.

Good boy. Timing. I really caught it. Hey, good boy. Good boy, Timon. I really call it. Hey, good boy merch is out, isn't it? It's out, baby. I don't think I've announced again.
