We might have a visitor over here at the house soon. We're here at the studio. Yeah. Any guesses? My wife. Kind of. Zach, Tymon's friend. Closed second. No way. Fun. Maybe. He texted me two days ago and said,

I'll mow your lawn or whatever. Oh. So what? Jake could always find something. And I did. I said, it's like eight degrees outside, so I'm probably good on the lawn. I said, but what does or whatever include?

He said, I'll do anything you pay me to do. Grind it. And he said, it's not because I'm desperate. I'm super rich, I'm just bored. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I said, no, I get it. I said, I'll try to think of some things. I said, you can reach out to Brad,

see if he needs help with his basement. I don't know if he texted you or not. No, I get it. Yeah, I said I'll try to think of some things I said you reach out to Brad see if he needs help with his basement. I don't be texted you or not No, he takes it there to be fair as act I he takes it to me and I have not texted back about something else. So maybe that's probably what he's waiting He's probably like well Brad's not gonna respond. So Anyway, he's coming over cuz uh, got a bunch of cardboard boxes in the garage, you know, I was like, at some point I'll burn these, but. Hey. I was like, honestly, I'm trying to think of a second thing to make it worth your while coming all the way over here.

But he's like, no, I'm there. Those those box will take a while. All right. So yeah, he's on his way over. So if we have anything else we need him to do. Oh, yeah. We've got him today. We can find some things.

I'm sure. What would you have him do in the basement? In my basement? Just be a second set of hands. Like, so I'm hanging up stuff on my ceiling right now. And like, basically I have like one, we'll call it two boards running this way, vertical, whatever you want to call it. And then I'm trying to make connecting boards horizontally. But if I make them just a little too long, obviously they don't fit, but make a little too short. It's hard to like hold it up while nailing it in. Would be nice to have somebody else

just putting their hand up there. You can negotiate when he gets here. What kind of hands you got? So I said, what's your rate for cardboard box removal? He said, whatever you want to pay me, boss. Balls in my court. What do you think I, I already said a number. What do you think I offered? What's it worth? To have a bunch of cardboard boxes out of your garage. It'll probably take I don't know I haven't checked

I haven't checked your inventory these days. Not bad. What's minimum wage these days? What is what's that in kids in Kansas? Wow Time is going cheap on no no minimum wage. That is I'm wondering what's that in Kansas? Wow. Time is going cheap on minimum wage. I'm wondering what that is. I think it's like 725 or something. No, is it really? I thought the minimum wage was like 12 something. Wow. I think Missouri, it's like 11. I want to say Missouri is like four or $5 more than Kansas. I think it's as of 2024, the Kansas minimum wage is 725 an hour Who knows a Kendall mix me? took me a

Second to be like, what are you? You said you'll do it for I don't want to I don't want to say a number because what if I say too high and then You're like you look like a cheapskate. What if I say too low and it looks like you're just big boss I'm already went probably 20 bucks, right? You went weirdly specific and you were like 1875. Let's see. Yeah, I don't know. I would, I bet, I bet 50 bucks. Okay.

Tim, what do you think I should have paid him? I don't know. I, I have no, I have no like nothing to base this on. I'm very curious. You think I have something to base this on? No, no. I just, same with Brad. I don't want to guess something that's like... I know. Just tell us.

I just want to get your answers and I'll get some of my answers. Probably like 300, 400 bucks. Right? An hour. Like help out your buddy. Yeah. I'd say Zach's worth a grand. Okay. But you probably... You kind of... 500. I think junk hall it does like minimum 250

That's kind of what this is what is he's gonna have to take multiple trips probably easy to drive his Subaru, right? Yeah. Yeah That's not your parts in the way. Oh gosh, Zach. Yeah, I'm sorry. He's got to move my car. I can move myself He can come in through a different way in the garage. You sure could it's troublesome. It's troublesome. Yeah, bondi bowl truck in the way. Yeah So what'd you say? I said $10 dang it dude. I knew it. I'm joking I said $100. That's great He said yes. He said please. Time is like I have to edit a video for this. All I can be doing is breaking down some boxes.

I never know what to do, it's cold out. I don't know. I don't know what high school is charged for manual labor. I know, 100%. I think they don't either. Yeah, I think that's fair. I think that's great. That's great.

I think you're generous and you should be. You have the money and he's doing you a favor. All right, it's good. Good price. Yes. Oh yeah, very good price. Absolutely. As a high schooler, a hundred dollars, he is literally a king.

Good. He can eat for five years off of that. Maybe once I get him here, I throw a couple other tasks on there. Couple other bones his way. Oh, a couple other tasks. No, no, no, no, more tasks. Same amount of bones, more tasks.

Same bones. Yeah, I'm no, no more tasks. Same amount of bones, more tasks. Same bones. Yeah. I'm not paying that much for my basement. He's just holding something up. Repeat so come along let's have some fun and go ahead get on your feet because it's a ghost from the spot cam That's fun, Zach. I would love to have Zach on the pod. Yeah, I hear his deep voice. Yeah when I when I move my truck have Zach on the pod. Yeah, he has a deep voice. Yeah, when I move my truck, he can sit in for me. Oh, that's kind of fun. Yeah, I'll see when he gets here. So yeah, just helping him out real quick. Yeah, just doing the Lord's work over here. Squeakity squeak. I had a second version of the Home Depot incident where somebody got mad at me for something that I thought was being like overly nice about. Oh, I'm starting to think that people are just rude sometimes.

Or Taylor Swift. It's me. Hi, I'm the problem. It's me. Maybe, maybe, maybe. Because both times it was like my stuff was somewhere that somebody else wanted to be. This time was at lifetime fitness. And it was like not, it was like a very like non-busy time. It was like 8 30 at

night. So it's, there wasn't very many people there. So I was doing the cable rows. Yes. You know what I'm talking about? Back workout. Good. Okay. Is it? Back and shoulders? Oh, I'm not, I'm not, I'm not I'm not I'm not rowing. I'm just I'm taking my I'm stationary and I'm bicep. That makes sense. Yes, it does. Maybe it's a little bit engaging of the core of the back. I don't know. Anyway, some of those machines. I, Brookridge has got this machine. It's, it's kneeling one leg curl. Dude, look at this machine trying to figure out where my body parts go. It's wild.

It's a hamstring exercise where you're like, you curl it behind you. But only one leg. But it's only one leg at a time. So it's got this sliding apparatus for your knee to go on. Oh, I look like a buffoon trying to figure this out. Okay. Literally like a, like a train monkey. Just like beating around it. Yeah. I'm like a buffoon trying to figure this out. Okay, literally like a trained monkey,

just like beating around it. Yeah, I'm gonna need somebody else to do this first, please. Yeah. That's what you'll notice. Well, maybe, I don't know how busy Brook Ridge is in general, but like with lifetime every once in a while, it's like late at night or whatever, like lull of the day.

I'm like, this is the time where you try out a new machine. Yeah. Like I'm kind of interested in this like assisted pull-up thing, but I might look like a ding is the time where you try out a new machine. Yeah. Like, like I'm kind of interested in this, like assisted pull up thing, but I might look like a dingus the first couple of times. So, you know, 10, 15 a night, a couple of people there. That's fine. You know, my very first workout this morning was one that like, because I like the app I'm using FitBot. It gives me

workouts. It's very solid and it gives you instructional videos and instructional text on how to do it properly. So you should be doing it well, but even in the video. I'm like this looks like a guy Who would be like made fun of for doing it wrong? It's it's a I think it's a glute workout where you take like the The rowing like yeah the rope. Yeah, you can you can exchange the handle. Yep. Kind of the axle thing. The what's it called? The pulley system. Yep. I put on the very bottom and then you turn around and then you grab this thing kind of underneath you. You're squatting and then you pull it up. You're twerking right now. Yeah. I'm like, man, I mean, it says to do that and it is working my glutes, but this someone's filming me right now. It just feels

like I'm using this wrong. It's a prank. Like this whole app is a prank for you. Yeah. Oh man. Oh well. Yeah, there's plenty of times where I'm like, this doesn't feel quite right. And it probably isn't, you know?

But I'm like, I'm trying, I'm here trying. Anyway, was that lifetime? And I was doing a super set, Jake, you know, super set. Yes, that is where you do a workout, but you're soaking wet. But you have a cape on. It's where you do two things in a row. So I'm like, I was gonna do the cable rows

and I was gonna go right from there to dumbbell curls. Wow. So that way you can do more exercises in less time. Okay. So I was going to go get the dumbbells to bring back. I had already set my towel and my water bottle down at the cable row spot. Now notice lifetime big gym has three different places where you can do cable rows. Two of them, mine and another one was occupied.

Okay. And so this guy comes up, asks the other guy around from him, like comes up to my area where I wasn't yet. And he's like, Hey, is this your stuff? Are you, are you using this? And this guy's like, Oh no, I think this guy is I'm walking up with my dumbbells. And I'm like, Oh yeah, I'm using this. But there's another one down there. And that guy just didn't like the way, like, yeah, he was just kind of mean about it. He wasn't like a tool, but he's just like, okay. And he didn't use it. And I'm like, well, I don't know what I was like, he's right down there. It's on the right side of the

aisle down there. It's the same thing. And like, yeah, he just, and I'm like, am I just being extra sensitive? And like, I just need to get over it. But I'm like, I was trying to like be helpful, not just be like, yeah, this is my stuff. I'll be done soon. Like I was like, this is my stuff, I'll be done soon. But if you want to do it right now, take 16 steps that way and you can do it. I am right there with you. I think I'm also a little sensitive to this stuff. I'm like, man, it's not that hard to be polite

or to be nice or give someone a smile. Yes. It's when it doesn't happen when it should, it's annoying. Yeah, and like also, dude, you're gonna be fine even if you don't do one workout of this one thing. Also you could open your eyes and clearly seeing that one's not being used. This whole conversation didn't even need to happen.

Yes, I was like, come on man. So yeah, that is frustrating. There is a, yeah, I'm trying to figure out how to tell a story without sharing too many details, but someone recently has kind of come into my life and Isaac and I were like debriefing, like what is it about him that we don't love? And it's like, I think it's just like a general,

like, he doesn't smile that often. It's as simple as that. It's like, I don't know. I think it's like, you don't notice it when it is there, but when it's not there, you're like, why does he seem so serious? Or why does he seem so like not fun? It's like, I think he just doesn't smile that much.

And I think it's a big deal. I think that is literally like the definition of a sense of humor, sense of humor. As in like, you understand when things are funny and you understand, like, it's not like sense of humor doesn't mean you are hilarious. Sense of humor means you are, you understand when something's fun.

You're with it. Humorous and yeah, like joyful. And therefore you can laugh along with people. Yeah, we, separate person, separate story, but we, our volleyball league started last night, which I should talk about this because Scott found a way to get involved. It was great.

He texted me, he's like, are you going to the volleyball game? I was like, no. No, don't ever text me about this again. What did I say? Oh, sorry, little sidebar about Scott. Let's just make fun of Scott every episode We were watching the Chiefs game together against the Texans anyway, and I don't know where we talked about cucumbers and whatever Oh, I don't why but doesn't matter the second half, you know

it's like kind of like a big part of the game and Scott just like, you know while the game is like happening. He's he's asked Gunner. He's like, so down the homes drops back. You, you have a like English cucumbers or regular cucumbers. And I find it like, I, I'm not like some like, we can't talk about cucumber, like whatever, but I just go, what are we doing right now? That's what I said to him. I said, what are we doing right now? We're clarifying the type of cucumber and second half of this is not important at all. Talking about cucumbers right now. It're clarifying the type of cucumber in second half of the game. This is not important at all. Talking about cucumbers right now. It's never important, especially now. Like there's a huge game on right now. If we lose it, the season's over. So, uh, like, yeah, like it didn't look like

organic for that stuff or is just regular. How easy is it to start like a backyard garden? What are you? Come on. Stop. Watch the game. Yeah, it feels like commercial. You have like a four minute commercial break. Get all your cucumber talk out there. Gladly. I'll talk like I don't. I'm not like, dude, you can't talk about vegetables, dude. Eat a burger. It's like, that's not what I'm trying to say about this at all. It was just like, why are we talking about this right now? Now I got a quick sidebar. I texted Steve Coop, but a brief discussion in the Friday Pickleball group chat. We were like, should we like just do Friday pickles or like Friday pickled vegetables? Like Steve Coop, you're going to like this Friday pickled beets, pickled vet onions. I don't know. We're talking. It's called Friday pickle. Therefore like whatever pickle pickle anything. We already got it.

Anyway, so last night was volleyball. We had a new girl play with us. Which was really fun. She played a Division I volleyball for Creighton, which was in Northern Iowa's conference. It's like Rachel remembers playing her. And like I went on the recruiting trail yesterday, recruiting trail, and ended up getting a five star

on like the seventh round. How'd you find her? I just texted so many people, I'd be like, hey, I'm looking for a volleyball player. And anyway, so we didn't really know much about her other than that she's a stud at volleyball, but then she showed up last night, it was just great and fun,

and Rachel and I were debriefing on the ride home, it was like, she wasn't necessarily cracking a ton of jokes, but she laughed when like me and Isaac were cracking jokes. She would laugh at the dumb things I would say to Rachel. It was like, and I loved having her around. That's all it takes. It's a sense of humor. Right. Like Tymon makes jokes sometimes and they're hilarious when he makes them,

but he's not like the funny guy in the group usually with us. And it's just fun to have someone around who like seems like they understand at least what you're saying. It's like, yeah, they know what I'm trying to be funny at least. How fun is it to be like, oh, that person always laughs at me. Like, oh, yeah. Yeah, like Catherine laughed a lot at me when we first like we're dating. She's like you look so goofy. No, I'm just kidding. You are so like. Look at you. I just laugh every time I see you. No. Yeah, but that was one of the things I was really attracted to. I was like, she gets my jokes. That's nice. It's nice to be around people like that. And it

wasn't like we're going back and forth making joke. Oh man, we did improv for five. Catherine, you got to join second city. Tina Fey over here. Oh, a little Kristen wig on our hands. Dad, I can't see too well. Is that Bill Shakespeare over there? No, it's just, it's just, yeah, but she just so great. It's an easy way to be liked. Yeah. Laugh at people. Right. Then again, not if it's not funny. Maybe, maybe don't like bully people. Yeah. Don't just go up to like a nerd and laugh at them. True. So, but so last night, uh, yeah, we're, we're putting together this team. Tate Unruh, supposed to be our third guy. He calls me on the way there and says, Hey, do you know what this is about?

No, but I love Tate. But that guy can be flaky as heck. This is real. I don't know. Could have been made up. He said, Hey, I'm on my way. I'm on the highway right now. I got to turn around. There was had a pipe burst. I was like, oh dude. I'm so sorry. He's like dude It's all good. It's like it's happened before it's an unfinished area, but Hillary just has no idea what to do So I'm gonna go home. Yeah, so I got no worries. You know what? Let's just draw It's like 15 minutes for the game. We'll be good with five

And then we pull up and as we're walking in, Isaac's like, dude, that's Scott's car. And we're looking in, it's so tinted. We're like, there's someone in there where we can't see, we're staring at him. Like, I don't know. So we keep walking in and then we get to the top of stairs. Scott calls out our name from the bottom.

We're like, Scott, even his daughter, Palmer, were there. He's like, I'm coming to watch. And we're like, you wanna play? You're not coming to watch, yeah. He had a bag of noodles and company and like a soda. I was like, give that to Palmer. You got to suit up. And so Scott was in like a long sleeve about like that.

It was a Robac, GKZ20, a sweatshirt and his Fabletics joggers. And he graced the floor with us last night. And it was so fun. I bet. We had a blast and Scott, of course, is like really solid at volleyball. So he's good at it.

He's just like you where he's good at everything he does. Like he'll figure it out. Yeah. So it was really fun. Of course, I mean, I, you know, I don't, I don't take it super seriously, but I want to not be the worst person on the team when I'm playing volleyball with Rachel and her friends. And so, you know, I try and I try to not be a liability, a liability, but I've never dove playing indoors.

That's what's fun about saying volleyball. You can dive without, you know, a care in the world. Indoors, not a psycho. I don't have knee pads on. Until last night. Scott dove plenty for all of us. He dove, I mean probably three to four different times, ripped his Fabletics joggers, put a hole in them, and I think that's why he's like, I might have to do some cozy earth.

I was like, you should. Oh, there you go. Hey, or JRKC20 for Roback as well. Oh, I should remind him of that. Roback joggers are awesome. Cause that's what I was telling him. I was like, they're $10. They are the exact same joggers as Lululemon.

The Roback's Delta Performance are the exact same, like pricing manufacturer as Lulu's ABC joggers. So they're $10 cheaper plus 20% off G-R-K-C-20. So you're welcome. Anyway, it was just fun playing with Scott. Cause we're all goofing around. There'd be rallies where sometimes it would be all the girls and it just looks beautiful.

When one girl bumps it to Rachel, who then puts it up to this like six, three Creighton girl, it looks like the Sistine Chapel is being painted. And there'd be some rallies where for whatever reason, it went me, Scott and Isaac. And I mean, it looks like we're on ice. I mean, we're just doing anything we can to get all that deer like struggling in the winter on ice.

Yeah. Frozen pond. There was just a lot of moments to laugh at ourselves and give each other a hard time. Like Isaac miss hit probably the first nine out of 10 spikes he went for, but they would be glorious because he like it's just massive swing. And then it only hit the right side of his hand.

So it goes it dives to the right. It's like, oh, you got to kill. And just laughing at that. And anyway that girl I feel like one is over She's like she understands why all this is funny. Yeah. Yeah to put a bow on it So good times last night with Scott though. It was great. He heard himself. Uh, he's he's one phone call away now I said next week. I'm gonna burst Tate's pipe on my own. Yeah, I'll do it myself Yeah, depending on how Tate plays. You might have a few more burst pipes. That's amazing. That's great.

I love that. It was way fun. Man, how do we get on since a humor? Oh, somebody not smiling or something. I think it was from. Oh, that guy. Cable Rose. Yeah. What the heck? Cable Rose. Cable Rose. Cable Rose. Should we talk about the opportunity that we declined tomorrow?

Yes, I also just wrote down. I almost forgot to talk about it. That's right, let's talk about that. And then let's also talk about halftime of the Chiefs game with Scott. I forgot about that. I didn't have that written, might've known it's until we just talked

about the cucumber thing. There's so many things in a week that probably don't get said that should. I know, I know. Anyway, okay. So yeah, almost had a claim new claim to fame. But we don't we don't get out of bed for less than one hundred dollars of cardboard money. Am I right? Essentially, essentially.

Yeah. Yeah. So we got a text credit to Brad. He had this number saved. I did not. I deduced who it was coming from, though. But we would get put in this group text from a number I don't know and it says, hey guys, something like, we'd love to have you represent the team this Friday on the Today Show live. They're doing like a playoff preview

and we'd love to have you down there. It's at Union Station, call time's at 6.30 AM. It's like, whoa, it's a pretty cool text. Today Show, represent the chiefs, going into the AFC championship game. That's pretty fun. Immediately I start to get through like, cause I follow a few comedians who will like

do the live news thing, just to like do different bits or like just to like kind of get clips out of them. And I think they're so funny. What's the guy, Nate from the office that would have that like whole shtick? Oh, that's right. Remember that? He was like a fake recycling company or something like that. So funny. There's a yo-yo company. I can't remember. But Sam Morrill is another comedian I love who will go on there and say ridiculous things like super dark joke. Yeah. Just to get a reaction out of the news

anchors. And so my mind was already spinning with like things we could do. Let's lean into the chiefs and the refs. Let's pay off the refs on air live. Let's talk about Taylor Swift. I don't know. There's options. And then negotiation, Brad enters the room and I don't know why I didn't think of this. I was like, I didn't come to mind initially anyway. I was like, oh yeah, totally. He's like, well, let's try to get something out of this. Yeah. I was like jerseys and tickets to the game. Yeah. That seems, I mean, we're, we're, we're taking our time. We're going there, doing our thing. 30 AM. Yeah. I mean, reverse engineer that we're getting up at 5 30. Yeah. Yeah. That's an early day. Yeah. Time away from my family. Oh my

gosh. Your sweet poor family. I know. Can't live without you. Nope. I had to bring him with And then they're tired. They're off their schedule for days on end. Gosh. Yeah. Least they could do. Savings is hard. Club level seats, 50 yard line. Yeah, right. And so I carefully craft a message asking in return, right? And I would love to be there in return. We love, you know, you guys sent us to the first home game of the year. We love to be there cheering our heads off

for the last home game of the year. We'll be the loudest fans in the section in return. Yeah, we'd love tickets to the game Sunday, essentially. And she came back and said, no can do. Can do baby doll. The NFL kind of controls a lot of the tickets and we have a certain allotment, but they're already given up. I don't buy it.

Where's my wallet? That's right. It doesn't matter because I don't buy it. Yeah, I was like, if we were Cale and Clark, they'd figure out an allotment. I think they have a few more. Yeah. So they declined our, so they declined our proposal. And then I kind of asked, I was like,

what kind of segment does this look like? Is this Q&A? And so she sent a video from last year. Did you ever end up watching it? So last year's like playoff preview on this today's show was basically like, all right, we're going live to Baltimore. We're talking to Mr. D-Fence.

He's a super fan of the Baltimore Ravens. All right, Alicia, take it away. And Alicia's like, all right, I mean, we're D-Fence. It's like this guy dressed as a purple fence. You think the Ravens have what it takes to win a dollar a year? They're gonna win the next one, and then they're gonna win the big one.

And then there's 30 people behind them just screaming. Yeah. And then they keep screaming. So she's having like scream back at him. What do you think about Lamar? You think he's got what it takes? Yeah. Because of our D.

Yeah. Let me hear you say, go Ravens one time. Go Ravens. All right. On to Tavortisco. Let's look to the 49ers. It's like, oh, if that's the segment, that's a little different than like represent the team like, oh, if that's the segment,

that's a little different than like represent the team. You know, I'm thinking we got five minutes for like a sit down interview. Yeah. That would be fun. Like kind of like director's chairs, a little bit taller. So talk about the team this year. You guys have been fans for a long time. Oh yeah, remember Tyler Thigpen, remember all the...

Yeah, Bertie Croyle and talking, Pacheco or Kareem Hunt, how are you feeling? That'd be great to be be interviewed as Chief Stance. But this was like, you scream at me, I scream at you back. I, which I do that pretty well too. You've been known to do that well. But yeah, yeah. In the end, I was just like, I don't know

if we're not getting anything out of this. I know it's the today show. Which it would have been a fun experience, no doubt. But it also was like, I mean, who? I don't know. It's not going to do anything for anyone. No, other than not at all. Well, 50 and older.

Say what you want, Jake. But I would say we got a huge bump in our ratings from that tailgate thing. The chiefs thing at the beginning of the year. Rachel made the joke that my first question should have been, what's the segment like? And it should have been, am I going to have to encounter barbecue sauce at any? Yeah, yeah. Well, I get barbecue. Remember that?

And they even said after that, they're like, we owe you guys big time for that thing. Yeah, you're right. You know what? How big time? How big time? Club level big time? They did email us a week ago, did you see that?

For a campaign? Yeah, non-paid. Non-paid, but then they're like, but we could give you something. They made it sound like they might be able to give us tickets for that one. Dang it. And sopaid, but then they're like, but we could give you something. Like they made it sound like they might be able to give us tickets for that one. Dang it. And so in my head, I was like, okay, well, if you can do it for that, you can do it for this.

They were like, it's not paid, but we'd be willing to give you some sort of- Compensation. Yeah, whatever. So anyway, we did not take them up on it. We politely declined. We politely declined, but I said, but I can't wait to do it some other time.

So anyway, let's talk about halftime of the Chiefs game. So Scott is just like a lot of us, but maybe even a little bit more. I think he's always been on a health train kind of thing for a long time. But his health training stuff is random. He's all about cold showers. He really likes Wim Um, but his health train stuff is different, like random. He's all about cold showers. He really likes Wim Hof.

If you guys know who that is time and you heard of Wim Hof. Nope. Okay. Uh, I think Wim Hof was like, if maybe not the original, but like, I feel like he made famous, like cold therapy, like cold shower, like cold plunges and whatever, all this stuff. I think he had a web. No Netflix episode

with Gwyneth Paltrow back in the day, the Goop Factory, heard of this? Nothing? Okay. Have you heard of Wim Hof? Yeah, new Wim Hof, Goop Factory? I don't know. I better make sure that's what it's called.

Goop, some, Goop, Gwyneth? Yeah. Augustus Gloop. Goop Lab, Goop Lab. Goop, Gwyneth. Augustus Gloop. Goop Lab. Goop Lab. Goop Lab sounds like something you, like, I don't know, Russian or something. Or no, German. Gulag.

Yes, Gulag. Goop Lab. Anyway, apparently Wim Hof also has these breathing techniques that he encourages to oxygenate your lungs is what Scott said. And you know, you asked Scott what it means and he doesn't really have a great explanation. He's like, it gives oxygen to your lungs. It's good for you. And he had, I had talked to him about it maybe like, I don't know, a week earlier. And he's like, have you done any of those exercises yet? And I was like, no,

honestly, hadn't thought about it. He's like, yeah, you should do them sometime. And Gunnar's like, well, what are we doing to have time? And so Gunnar Scott and I did these exercises where essentially you just take a deep breath in and then like a short breath out 30 times in a row. And then because of that, you're supposed to be able to then breathe out after the 30th time and just hold your breath

for like a minute straight without it being hard because your brain is tricked into thinking, like whatever, you have enough oxygen or whatever it is. I don't know, but dude, it did something. It worked. You guys were all pretty fired up about it. We were trying to do it. And then of course, like we're doing some like...

It's like guided, like Scott's putting like a sound on for like breathe in. It sounds like, it sounds like an Asian guy who was taught English from a British guy. He's like, you are doing great. I don't know. Like, and so it's kind of like this British accent and you know, so of course, like we're breathing and we're just holding our breath. And then all of a sudden the guy says something, hold and keep holding. You can go a little bit longer.

And then Scott says, he looks at me and he starts dying laughing. Yeah. They couldn't get through it. And so then I start dying laughing, you know, and so we're all laughing hard and stuff, but like, I don't know what this breathing thing is, but like it did like bring some like energy, like, I don't know, something. It made me feel like I was going to pass out at first, like lightheaded, but like in a nice way. I don't know. It's kind of hard to explain. So yeah, Jake has a little video of it. I think you could post on their time. And but, um, Oh yeah. I'll text that now. Breathe in and then just let it out.

Yeah. We're just like, and you just do that 30 times and then, but you're supposed to repeat the cycle three times. And I think the third time you're supposed to hold your breath for like a minute and a half or something. And Scott's like, and I, and Gunner's like, Oh, I can't hold my breath that long. And Scott's like, yes, you can watch. So I would like to try it again, but haven't haven't done it yet. But that's, that's the kind of stuff we do at our halftime. You know, time. It was funny. I know cucumber talk. We're breathing. Meanwhile, Gunnar brought over like a hundred pizza rolls and he started

getting into a little too much and I said, pause off. Let me just, you know, I appreciate you brought them over. Your job's done here. I'm gonna take it from here, so. You're like, what are you doing? Get out of here. I just stopped, just preheating, get out, walk away.

Which you preheated to 440, yes? Yeah, it's the optimum temperature for my oven. That's, you. My oven. You've dialed in. Yeah, I've dialed it in. But now it's done. Now I'm just a chicken and vegetables guy. So goodbye.

See ya. No more of that. Okay, so you guys don't know about this Broadway singer thing. I've heard of Broadway, I've heard of singers, but I don't know. Okay. I'll just read you the whole post then.

So this is on our Ghostrunners Facebook group. Kaylee Cronin said, I need help from the funniest group of people I know. I'm a Broadway performer. Currently the new musical comedy Death Becomes Her. I'm on stage nightly in my own ensemble track and also cover the two lead women. One of which I've been on for fairly frequently. There's a scene in the show where Madeline announces a new improvised sponsor for her televised

wedding ceremony each night. The show is crazy and campy and I try to get a big laugh for the sponsor, but I'm running out of good ideas. She gave some examples. They're all like real companies, like, brought to you by TikTok, make every second count brought to you by Frank's red hot. I put that on everything. So he's like, as you can see, anything goes the more widely known,

sillier, timelier, the better looking for your clever ideas. Side note time and inch. I want you to, I know you want to stay behind the camera, but your voice is incredible. And I think we need you on a Broadway stage. Whoa. Maybe sweeping or pulling the curtains. So I added that.

That was me. That was me. But no, it does sound like a funny bit. Like a girl who's maybe like obsessed with herself and is televising her own wedding ceremony has a sponsor for it. Yeah. So I almost typed out a bunch of ideas.

It's like, you know what? It'd be better just to even brainstorm this on the podcast for Kaylee. Cause I think this is just incredible. The first thing that came to mind, which I think she in the comments, she kind of debunked or she just like said, like it does have to be a, I think a real company

and you have to use their real slogans. That would be funny if you could just say something and then the joke is what their slogan is. Okay. Let me try to think of an example. Tide pods, they will kill you. Yeah, butter. I don't care if it slowly kills me or something like that.

But I think it's gotta be a real company and the real slogan, which limits quite a bit. I was gonna ask her, can it be a company that no longer exists? It could be funny if it's like brought to you by Enron. Money today, money tomorrow, or something that's like clearly ironic because it went out of business.

Yeah, so she wants it to be like, yeah, because it's funny, like the punchline then is like usually like the slogan that's made up, but you can't make up the slogan. Yeah, I know, that's what's tough. So I guess the jokeline then is like usually like the slogan that's made up, but you can't make up the slogan. Yeah, I know. That's what's tough. So I guess the joke is essentially just like my wedding has this brand deal in it.

Right. Yeah. I'm trying to think of like good, whatever, you don't know the answer, but like, what if it doesn't have to be the actual like slogan? It could be like part of an ad campaign. Like I'm trying to think of like hilarious, like the Bud White, Bud Light, real men of genius kind of thing, you know, or like, or the, uh, all the Bud Light ones, the was ah, was ah, wait, wait, wait. Did she say that? She did brought to you by Budweiser was Waza! Waza! That does work.

That one was like, I remember for like a solid year, I thought that was the funniest thing ever. I remember I saw somebody who had a personalized license plate that said, waza on it. And I was like, so sad that my dad did not get that license plate. Come on. Dad, that would be so good. Waza! I think the biggest laughs you're going to get have to be almost on the opposite spectrum Come on. Dad, that would be so good. Was I? I think the the biggest laughs you're going to get have to be

almost on the opposite spectrum of a wedding. So everything a wedding is, the sponsor has to be the opposite. Sure. Yeah, yeah, yeah. A divorce attorney or even like, yeah, liquid death would be funny because of the liquid death. Kill your thirst. Something so intense like that. Right. Makes it funny.

Very intense. Yeah, brought to you by the psychiatric word of Advent Health. Yeah. You're not you without your pills. Snickers also is a part of this. It's a joint deal. They're not competitors, so it's all good.

Yeah, what up? Yeah. Yeah, all the things I'm thinking of, I'm just thinking I'm making up the actual. Yeah. Brought to you by Johnson and Johnson. We also make shampoo guys. Why is there a time like this? One thing we made one time. Yeah. We didn't even test it.

It's tear free for kids. We're a baby company, mostly brought to you by Elon Musk. Remember me for the car stuff. Yeah, guys. Like I have a really good car company, okay? Brought to you by Elon Musk. Don't you like those drones every now and then?

Let's talk about those. Those are pretty cool. Brought you by Elon, yeah. We're not the only thing in the sky. Why are we talking about the UFOs? Like, whatever. Yeah, I the only thing in the sky. Why are we talking about the UFOs? Like, whatever. Yeah, I think you and I have a hard time turning that aspect of our brain off.

Yeah, it's basically like, don't write a joke. Just like, think of a company. Just think of a funny, like what are funny, I mean, like funny products out there are- Toilet paper, I guess. The Shakeway. You wanna go potty humor? Shakeway. Plenty of people love the Shake Weight. Yeah, that's just a funny product the squatty potty funny product. Yeah things that have funny words What's scrub daddy? It's just a funny word daddy's great sham. Wow funny word

Sea world that'd be kind of funny anything that has a negative connotation. I think that's a funny that's a sponsor Yeah, yeah brought to you by the killer whales at Sea World's Please help us. Yeah. Once again, just making up our own slogan. So because they're also, yeah, whatever. So about, uh, you're, you're balling chain, you're chained up, you know, just like the blackfish. I don't know. Um, so the company has a negative connotation. I don't know. Aren't there a lot of them these days, Jake? Don't I know it? You name a company, I'll tell you something negative about it.

Apple. The world we live in. Apple. They're spying on us. World we live in. World we live in. Yeah, right. Yeah, right.

The world we live in with Apple. Gross. Rotten. Rotten apple. You got a worm in my apple. Cookies too. I got a worm in my cookie. That's fun though. So this girl is Broadway. She every night she has she is on Broadway. She has Broadway skills and she thinks that when time and improvises a song that you are worthy enough of Broadway Aka timing what the heck you still doing here, man. Yeah, go clean out those boxes You got to move to New York City. So you need money somehow that is high praise. Yeah. Thank you to Kaylee Kaylee spelled like the Utah way. Okay, lots of letters

Yeah, yeah, yeah, I gh. Okay. I was like what I don't know how to pronounce. Okay But yeah, I mean that's the main takeaway is that someone who's on Broadway listens to us that's pretty sweet That is crazy. It's some people a lot of youtubers creators podcasters out there gonna say we love you all equally And some people, a lot of YouTubers, creators, podcasters out there are going to say, we love you all equally. I'll say the Broadway means more. I'll go ahead and say if you have a potential connection to Lin-Manuel Miranda, you might get a notch up. Not all created equal. That's wild. That's really cool. I don't think she's ever said anything to me about being able to be on Broadway.

Let me see if there's a PSP. I don't see. Anyway, I've sung a lot on this show. Plenty of opportunities. This talk show of ours. So there I was thinking, no way could it get any better. And then somebody slid right down the bar, a steamy hot cup of Joe, Main Street Roasters, Joe.

Oh, this is not like a bench press bar or is it? Up to interpretation. Slid down the bar. Yeah. No, no, no. I was, I was sitting there. I was, I was having the time of my life watching the Chiefs go to their third Super Bowl in a row.

Gosh, I hope we're right. And they're like, this is the best day ever. And you said, no, nothing could get any better. And then this guy goes, Oh yeah, tries me. And then he chucks that Joe down the row. And everyone's like, no, I wanted the mainstream roasters Joe. They're grabbing the grab, but they can't get it. And the guy's like, Hey, there's enough for everybody. I'm a cirrhosis calm. Yeah Grkc for 10% off Crowd goes nuts.

No. Oh, Theo Von. The what is that about? I've seen that you have.

What's that chair debacle? How you guys both, what are you guys? Whoa, you don't know about Theo Von and Logan Paul? You guys are messing with me. What's the, the oven's chair with Logan Paul. A hundred percent. This is true. I promise. Yeah. I've seen it. I follow both those people. Maybe because you're not political man. Maybe because you don't love our country.

Maybe honestly, uh, no, he, they were at the inauguration. Okay. Didn't even know that Rachel had to tell me everything about the inauguration. That was day one of shred. My mind was full of other protein and carbs and. Oh, we went hard on inauguration. No surprise. You and Tymon. Tymon and I got together.

Yeah, he made his homemade cinnamon rolls, which is just apple cinnamon icing on there. I didn't even know that was a thing. For George Washington, apple pie. Sure. Kids made their own inauguration bingo cards the night before. Wow. Hilarious. And they both got a blackout because they put things on there like Donald Trump and you know, like whatever. So no,

at the inauguration, I believe Theo von was sitting in front of the Paul brothers. Oh, wow. And Theo Von's chair broke on him and he fell backwards. How do we not see the Paul brothers? Happen to be recording. Happen to be recording quote unquote. And so Theo Von is claiming that they pranked him at the inauguration. It's like, it feels like fake beef, but it feels like they're kind of going back and forth. Cause like the Paul brothers like, no, we didn't. He's like,

there's a time, Theo Bonds, like there's a time and place for everything. This is not the right time to prank somebody. Logan Paul's like, I was recording it because everyone could see that that chair was janky. We were all talking about how ridiculous it was. And you know, he falls back. And so they're back and forth on this thing. I might have been partially bricked this past week. We have been too much. I have been reading up a storm. Yeah.

I mean a flurry note. I don't know if I've watched TV this week. We don't watch any shows. I just read at night. Read that novel. What is it? Yeah, I just finished it. Never lie.

I would recommend it if you like thrillers, psychological thrillers, really good book. My sister got it for Rachel, but I've been reading it. It's a Frida. Frida McFadden, I think is her name not that girl the South American unibrow girl different Frida I was gonna say that's the only one I subscribe to yeah, I'll never lie. Good book. Good twist So I didn't know about the chair. That's really funny though. Yeah, it shares one of the few things from the inauguration I did see I was also very just like I think my family might have tuned into some of it and like I heard some

Things but that's like yeah one of the few things. Yeah. Yeah, did you see anything else like anything go like up into the Reich? Yeah, yeah. Yeah, you far right? It's all good he's swatistic so You make that up I did not Alright Jessica grow spelled the New Orleans way. Oh, yeah. So there's an X in there. Yeah. This is fascinating. Garrow Tigers. It's so hard to like send a specific post on. I'm going to send it to you on message or something lame. No, you can you can copy link. I'm more share options.

My internet's so slow. I should have done this all the time we were talking. What is wrong with me? I'll just share it to my public Facebook. You guys just check it out. It's not. Hey guys, this is for the podcast. How about I just get on Facebook real fast

and find it. Don't look at it if you're not on my podcast. Let's see. Links you share are unique to you and maybe use to improve suggestions as you see. Great. Give me a link. How do you not say sin? I'm doing it all the right way. I even click more share options. It's not working. Basically type it, Jessica type in chair. And I want you to find this post.

So there's three lines, three dots, the top of this post. And then you say copy link Jake I Don't know what to tell you I don't have that Jessica Alright, she has me blocked. She has me anti link. Maybe she's like I don't want I don't want things to be linked for me I'm just gonna I'm just gonna scroll until I find it was posted January 19th. So four days I'm just gonna scroll until I find it was posted January 19th. So four days Got it, so I'll summarize what the pictures you're seeing in front of you are basically that's the same chair

One taken I see in the storefront and then one taken at home a little soft light hard light Yeah, I think blue light versus orange light. I'm guessing is what we're looking at Time and I want your thoughts on this as well. Doesn't it have to be a color temperature thing? I don't know. It's weird, because it's such a... That's extreme. It was like, it sure looked like yellowish or versus like bluish.

It was the same. This is like such different shades. Like very interesting. I don't know what my thoughts are. I mean, like, it seems impossible. So I just you know We're gonna basement upgrade the lights and they have like five different light temperatures or whatever that's ours are out there Yeah, nice easy

and I don't know I'm assuming that they probably have it on the brightest whatever color and Her house is more like what you said blue is blue what the brightest color is or whatever It's just like it's the it's the warmth of the color. So we even this spotlight that's on time in the spotlight here, we can adjust the color temperature that in Kelvin. It's like 5600, I think, is like the warmest most bulbs will go. And that's like that simulates sunlight. And it could go all the way down to like 3200 or something,

which is like blue, like your phone at full brightness, like blue light. Like a doctor's office. Yes. That's what I'm thinking. Like, so blue light is the most white, pure white light. Catherine likes the opposite. She likes the yellowish. Yeah.

It goes warm. Like a lamp. Oh, a lamp is warm and cozy. Good lamp. Good lamp. Yeah. When I, when I get a house, eventually I'm just going to have lamps everywhere. Like instead of... Big lamp guy.

I just feel like... Very old school. I don't like the... I think I would like to have the option of like, if I need to just like really have a bright room. But it's so much more cozy to just have like side lights, soft light. It's so much nicer. Agreed. Filmmaker over here doesn't like the overhead light.

I hear you. I'm with you, man. Old... If you buy an old house, they don't even have above ceiling lights, whatever you call it. You know what you like to have in my basement? I do. Thanks. Very familiar.

Okay, so yeah, she like, so she bought this chair, brought it into her house, and then all of a sudden she's like, whoa, how did it turn black? I think she ordered it at the store, and then that one showed up. And so then she's like calling the company like hey you sent me the wrong color and they're like no that's actually the same color And then that very last picture or the last two you can see the swatch. Uh-huh and Look how it changes color. Yeah, you can see it on there and the headrest That is so great. How can it be that different? I know, I mean, I've never seen anything this stark.

I just video of you holding the swatch, walking, uncut, you're walking from the store. To outside or something? To outside, or like just to your house. You keep the video rolling in the car. And then put it on the chair. Because look how white her wall looks with her gray chair there.

Yeah. The color temperature doesn't look that different between the photos. So that here's what's happening. I bet she has extremely warm lighting in her bedroom. Her iPhone has adjusted to that. Yeah. And it makes the white appear pure white. And so it's affecting the colors of everything else.

I see. But it's still so hurting my brain how it can be that much. Jessica, you got to post this publicly somewhere. This will absolutely go viral if you care about that stuff. But there's this is- Absolutely. There's a hundred percent chance that goes viral. A hundred percent chance. Virable.

It's a virable offense. Anyway, I just wanted to give a shout out to that. And I love stuff like this. I loved the dress a long time ago. Yes. And that's what she started with. She says, is this the next blue gold dress phenomenon? What was the dress to you guys? Also Jessica, you Missy Michael fun for sure white and gold for me to remember What I always saw white and gold very hard for me to see blue and black

Yeah, we do. It's such a weird psychology thing because people like Like cuz you this is I don't know if we want to talk about this Do you when you see the picture like do you see a dress that's like in shadow and like maybe like almost silhouetted if you could picture it? I don't know if you can talk about that gold dress specifically the like, I see it in shadow is obviously like, are you picturing it as like kind of back litter in shadow? Yes. Same. And I think the people that see black and whatever they see are just picturing it like fully lit up.

How? I believe you. That's what I'm wondering. Yeah, it seems like you're crazy. I mean, look at the top right. It's like a very bright area. I know. That's what I'm saying.

Clearly, there's some. Yeah. It's a weird thing. You guys remember, what was it, Green Needle and Space? What was it? Brainstorm. Brainstorm and green needle. I remember that.

Yeah, like there were all these different things and they all sounded like, depending on what word you were looking at, that's what you were hearing. Yeah, which now is a little bit more of like a science trick, I think. I think both sounds are being played at different frequencies. Oh, huh.

I think it's, there's like actual like explanation for it. This is just a phenomenon. This is insane. That that chair is very similar to that, though. It's kind of fun. Just I feel like just good content from the ghosties this week. Broadway singers, crazy chairs, a lot of fitness advice. Whoa, shredded Jake. Jake Allen making a Photoshop of a shirt.

Is that Chris Pratt? No idea. I didn't know whose body I was on either. I bet it's Captain America is my guess. Well, I don't know. Then somebody commented Jake as Scrawny to Brawny Captain America, please. So Brawny. Brawny James, buddy.

Yeah, LeBronny James. Someone commented on there. Yeah, Lebron James someone commented on there Rachel you lucky girl the eyes emoji That was funny on a fake picture of me Wow Rachel you've really outdone yourself. Yeah, right So now I'm just looking at all the Facebook stuff. Yeah, it's good. It's been popping this week.

Right finger! Raise your right finger! about opening your mouth? What the frick is she doing? That's cool. I thought it was cool, but I don't know anything about any of this stuff. So I was hoping you guys could help explain like what the heck did I just watch? I wish I knew more, but there is a lot of stuff vocal coaches can just like unlock. I thought it was so awesome. She's like, it looked like she pressed on her chin. Yeah, I haven't seen like that full video. I don't really know what goes on in the AI endings.

Yes, I've seen a couple of those and they're absurd. Everyone. They get like taken. Oh, yeah. And the kids freak out. The one I call this account that fall into a lake. Yeah. Like, yeah, like water.

Like the ground opens up just all kind of stuff. I follow this one account that only does that video, but interrupted by a band of singing mice. Just like every, it's a different variation of it. I liked that one. So yeah, I don't know. It's like, it's cool. Let's try it. So sing something that's too high for you

and then do whatever she did and figure it out, Tim. What does she do in the video? Cause I don't. I don't know. That's why I need. It looks like she just just like touches her she's putting it down or opening it Do like the high parts of I will always love you and then do it again with me I'll kind of punch your chin as like yeah Bop yeah, you and the teeth a little bit just like

in the teeth a little bit. Just like, okay. Now do it. Now do it. Now, now touch your chin. Now. It's a great gift. Yeah. I need, I'm not like in a, if it was like in the morning and I was like voice cracking, I don't know. Yeah I know you gotta get high. That's I know you gotta get high in order to do this Oh, that's what it is. That woman was blazed out of her mind. I is it. Yeah So anyway, I I don't know. I don't think about that stuff. I was like, that's fascinating This girl like becomes a perfect singer when her chin gets touched Yeah, like a voodoo doll weird. Yeah, I want to know I want to know more

You know, Bill Gates, he's philanthropic now, and this is my way of being philanthropic. I'm just helping you. Does he break down boxes? Well, it's different for everybody. He doesn't, he doesn't post about it, but he does. He's like, a group of little people. Yeah, we don't post about it, but he does. Yeah, he's like a group of people. Yeah, we don't hear about it

You're the one with the weird memes Okay, weird emojis that you have to pay for. Oh, yeah

That's what he brings wait, like he'll react to a text with a weird emoji or he'll like send a weird emoji? Like you know like the apps you have to pay for to like get new emojis? No actually. Several years ago I paid two dollars for a pack of emojis. Wow! We're learning stuff. That is, he doesn't talk much but you know he sends the weird ones. He shows up, can't hide money. I've broken down a box or two in my day. I will say I can't think of a single time I've been to his house where he hasn't sat down at the piano and just played really well probably 10 to an hour minutes somewhere in that range. Yeah I don't pay Zach any attention. Sometimes he doesn't even talk to you. He just tunes out the whole world.

Really? Is that true? You play the piano that much? I wouldn't say an hour is a bit much, but I like to sit down and mess around. We've like tried to write songs. I was about to say written songs. We've tried to write songs together. We put in effort. Yeah.

Didn't go far. Yeah. What's the hardest part about writing songs? For me, for me, it's the hardest part about writing songs? For me, probably. Yeah, the whole for me. It's anything lyric related. Oh, I can't I can't write lyrics Oh, yeah. Yeah, it's so hard to make them not sound cheesy. Yeah, so deep, right? Like I could sit down and just jam away at the piano, but this thing and you try and give me to say words Yeah, you can make a tune up real. Oh for sure. Yeah Uh

You are a bass singer Oh bar bear don't you can sing low though how low can you go what's a burr a tone Oh the raise your yo Hey, yeah Pirate one yeah, oh you should give us your best give you a little or give it give me any kind of All three you guys know what the yo ho ho song is like um you know what you can see a creepy like underwater creature Yo, oh Let me get in stance real quick raising his yaw right now don't be afraid to touch his chin if he loses the pitch a little bit

what if we mix it up we go with a hobbit the song Misty Mountains from a hobbit yeah it's like it's like it feels like a concert now. Yep. It's like... Far over the misty mountains cold Two dungeons deep and caverns old We keep going or stop. One more. We must away, air break of day. Can I hear Yo Ho Ho now? Yo, yo, yo, yo.

No, I know that one. Oh, okay. It's, oh, all hands hoist the colors high. Can I now hear a mashup of the two the hobbit and yo-ho-ho? Far oh yo The yo misty yo mountains The yo, thank you. Yeah, that was awesome. I practiced that before I'm glad you know off the cuff off the kachug that is that is something wow way to be well thanks thanks for joining brother that was a good time anything you want to say to

the Ghostbusters nation when which camera should I download probably yep this one yep when you when you're gonna do a thing, but you are But then you don't when but then you got to make sure that you do yes Yeah, it's about like commitment. That's good. You could look at it that way, but not necessarily I want you to think about that when you're cutting down those boxes. Yeah, I will. Do. When you think you do. Do. Yeah.

Don't quit. Typically our clip of the week is like a funny moment. I think that's like inspiration. I think that's what we'll look for. Sad piano music in the background. Maybe just my singing in the background. I think so. Kind of reverb.

Thank you so much. Thank you, Zach. Thank you so much. Thanks for coming on, Zach. Of course. Zachary Midgett. Thank you so much. Thanks for coming on, Zach. Zachary Midgett. Have fun out there. Oh, he said. Speaking of Midgett, I saw that Midgett was in the photo

when they did their little escape room. Shoo. They're friends. That's what I was saying. Yeah. Midgett, yeah, you did not win. We didn't Tell us more. It was my first escape room ever. It was called Sorcerer's Secret

Harry Potter weird escape room under in the basement of a We Buy Gold Like it's like a random joint business. I guess I don't even know if they what it's pretty random It's in like off 151st in Overland Park My Dexa scan was also a combo. It's connected to Journey Church, which is right by your church, Brad. Okay. I don't know Journey Church. It's like across the street.

It's on the other side of 87th. Okay. Journey Church right there. That's where I did my bone scan. It's connected to the church. Kind of odd. Baseball, we buy gold. It's wild though. Yeah, it was interesting.

It was a great. I've never done an escape room, but it was a lot of fun. I don't know. It was like we had five people. And so what am I saying? I don't know. I'm trying to think of any like memories that from it.

We talked to, cause I saw you that night. We talked a little bit about it. It's kind of like you have to do an entire escape room just to know how escape rooms work. I feel like whenever I did my first one, I was like, OK, now I'm ready to do another one right away. I wanted to. Yeah, I wanted to do another one right then. Like, just let's pay for the next room. Let's just go into that one right now, because I was like, now I get it. Oh, it's just to be like looking for weird, really numbers, numbers and letters and four letter codes and maybe a key.

Yeah. But when you don't know what you're doing, you're saying the thing was, it's like there were a few people in our group that did kind of know what they were doing, but it was like, well, surely I was the difference. If we do another one with the same group, then we'll get it. If we have five people in order to doing no way we get stuck. Yeah, I think the best part was Zach had kind of like given up on like he was like, I'm not being much help. I'll just kind of chill. And so we had like we had unlocked a like given up on like, he was like, I'm not being much help. I'll just kind of chill.

And so we had like, we had unlocked a like wardrobe type thing, has like a few coats hanging, found like a, oh, like a coat in the pocket of a coat, all this stuff. We're like, okay, we're done with the wardrobe. Zach was like just messing around, like got inside the wardrobe and he was like shutting the doors and fell back and then just like fell into a hidden room, like the wall like opened up. So he like really helped us out if we hadn't found. I don't know how much longer it would have taken, but there was that was probably like 70% of the clues were in that next room.

Oh wow. So it was a good thing he found that. That's like out of a movie. It was like three stooges. Whoa, whoa, whoa. You found it. Yeah. Yeah, it was great. You go back? I would. Yeah. Yeah. We buy gold. We buy gold basement. They're like, I got a great property for you, brother. Yeah. Interesting. I've never been to another one to compare to. So I don't know if this was like a low, like a lesser budget escape room or not. Like it seemed fine. There were some like, okay, this is like production quality could have been a little better, but it was immersive. I think most immersive escape rooms I've been to seems like a cheaply decorated room. OK. Yeah. That's pretty much what this was. A lot of locks. Yep. OK. OK. Interesting. You can hear you can hear Zach breaking down those boxes. Getting to work.

Hey, it's a new year. It's a new you. But it's the same good old good ranchers. But they also have a thing called New Year New Meat. So we're doing that. That's our thing. OK? So that's the slogan is New Year New Meat.

So let's promote that. Let's go hard on the New Year New Meat. So let's promote that. Let's go hard on the New Year New Meat. Let's make it happen. So, um, so when a customer walks in and they ask, uh, you know, what kind of sales you have today or what kind of, uh, what kind of meat you've been eating, make sure you hit the key points. All right, guys, New Year New Meat. Yeah. You say, you say New Year New Meat and you talk about how they don't have antibiotics, they don't have seed oils, they don't have added hormones. They make sure to say their slogan too. That can help reinforce it. Yeah, they say, American meat delivered, new year, new meats.

Yep. You say that to them and make sure they know the added benefits. Like when they talk and they seem kind of on the fence, make sure you kind of, you dangle the carrot a little bit.

New Year New Meat, New Year New Meat. Good job. I got a couple of quick hitters. Last week I talked about Garrett and Glide and the coincidence that happened there. Yes. This week, so I mentioned on Monday's episode

how Garrett Gibson's been super helpful. He's a physical therapist. And anyway, just super helpful with muscle growth, strength, he's been texting me a ton of stuff. He's also jacked. Yeah, he's also a strong guy. Yeah. And so I go back and reread what he's sent me.

And it's like 10.30 at night a couple nights ago, and I'm just randomly like I need to see one more time what Garrett said he does on Mondays and Thursdays and I'm looking at it and then I get a text from glide that says Garrett texting you right now, too. I was like dude First of all, no, he did it but I was like I'm looking at Garrett's text there while They're meant to be interchanged. It was truly like a spiritual moment. I was like, that is crazy that

he didn't even have anything to text me about. It was just like, hey, just heard you on the podcast, like Garrett texts you right now too. I was like, kinda. What? Kinda crazy. That is- Just a quick hitter.

Just, I could feel God in this Garrett and Glide tonight. God in this group chat. Yeah, there needs to be something. They need to hang out more, I guess, or something. Something, yeah. Maybe get me out of the way, yeah, just you guys. Do you say they have never met or they have met before? I don't even remember.

As far as you know, they're completely, like Garrett wasn't at the chief swatch party. Did they maybe play basketball together one time? That could have happened. That might've happened. Yeah. Might've. But yeah, so they're great.

It's about time for us to play some basketball. Little cornerstone academy. Cornerstone academy. I think Seastone, I don't know. It's about that time, isn't it? Seastone. That one time a year we play against a bunch of high school kids.

I would do that again. I think I'm out on leagues, but I'd play the boys again. Yeah for Nolan Another quick hitter surprised Rachel with a with a rav4 while she was out of town It was fun. You drove by like seconds after I surprised her with it. Did you realize that? Oh, that was like I was getting home from the airport I went to drop Rav4 shot goies for influencing me. Wrap four in the driveway, waiting on her. It was just kind of fun. And then yeah, yeah, she texts me every day.

She'll be like, just sitting here thinking, you got me a car, thanks so much. It's awesome. Like, yeah, you're a great person to give gifts to. That's fun. And then last thing is I need to start keeping track of just the amount of like offers I think I get in a week because it's definitely not a bad thing,

but so many of them are just so just like fascinating. The Today Show thing, really cool. Yeah. Stand-up comedy in between pickleball games, not exactly ideal. A lot of them come from pickleball, but this one was, we were at Chicken and Pickleball games, not exactly ideal. A lot of them come from Pickleball, but this one was, we were at Chicken and Pickle and they've installed this new system where you raise,

it looks like when you have like a skier behind you, you gotta put the orange flag up, you raise an orange flag on your court if you'd like a waitress to come serve you. Okay. We're there a couple of days ago, the guy who works there goes, hey, Fred and Pickleball,

we gotta have you guys make a video about this flag system. We'll pay you to make a video. It's like educate people about how the flag system works. Oh. I go, oh. I said, what if you put a sign right here that said like raise flag for service? And he's like, yeah.

Oh wow. Yeah. That would save us. Yeah. I guess we could just do that. Yeah. Yeah. That's actually a pretty good idea.

I was like, yeah, I would have felt bad charging for a flag video. Because the fact that they're like, see that video. Yeah. Like you want us to post it. You got to do be like, oh yeah, I think that's necessary. Like get a sign that says scan can't you are code for how to raise this flag and what it's gonna do it goes to our like unlisted video unless you want to post it yeah it'd be a little more expensive yeah but yeah that

was the lowest of the low we'll pay you to make a flag video for chicken and pickle it's like I think there's other solutions to this but thank you for thinking of us I would have said yes. Absolutely, put her there. I'll make two. Jake just nailed his hand on the table. Solid, well built. Nice table here. Last other solicitation from the week.

This is about an hour later, also at Chicken Pickle, this guy comes up to us. You guys Friday, guys? Yeah, yeah, yeah, what's going on? I wanna work together. I'm just gonna give you the tidbits this guy comes up to us. You guys Friday, guys? Yeah, yeah, yeah, what's going on? I wanna work together. I'm just gonna give you the tidbits because this guy talked to us. He filibustered for about 25 minutes straight.

Here are the highlights, the summary, from what I can remember. Doesn't have custody of his daughter. Proudly never been sued. One of those things I wouldn't have even thought about it, but now that you mention it, it makes me think maybe you kind of have been sued. One of those things I wouldn't have even thought about it, but now that you mention it, it makes me think maybe you kind of have been sued. Also, yeah, I've never told somebody I've never been sued.

I know, it was such a red flag. Which is true, I have not been sued, but I've never once let that be known to anybody until two seconds ago. Yeah, Isaac and I are just receiving all this information. So there's that He also he manufactures things in China Maybe he wants to do pig oil paddles. He very proudly

Air freights them over which anyone the business will tell you that's that's expensive really expensive. Why would you brag about that? Yeah, I he said we've actually we actually make paddles too And I said how much how much your paddles cost like landed in the US how much they cost you he goes five bucks I go no one's no one's doing that that's not possible he goes yeah well I just mess with you guys I was best we okay so you guys know your stuff okay I was messing with you that was another red flag wait so he makes paddles yeah according to him he does b2b he makes that custom paddles for like people who want like 60 for an event So he does a smaller quantity, but he doesn't air freight some. Yeah. Gotcha. Yeah

Yeah for sure That oh it's adding up the math is mathing and well, he was joking about the five bucks He was just messing with me. Yeah, good one And then the last red one from a guy that you're trying to go into business with i'm messing with you, dude I've been sued 18. I'm messing with you. Dude, I've been sued 18 times. I was messing with you. Well you guys walk around like you've been sued every quarter. Give me a break.

Yeah. That's how we do business. I got a lawyer on retainer for a reason. It's cold. Yeah, whatever. It's Christmas. That's what happens on Christmas. You get sued.

That's your bonus check. Yeah. And then the last thing, he said they have a warehouse here in Kansas City. So that was the one thing I was like, hey, maybe, I don't know. And I was like, where's your warehouse? And he goes, I think it's in North Kansas City. At that point I go, you think?

Yeah, I'm almost positive it's in North Kansas City. I gave you the address. I go, it's not about the address. It's the fact that, see, if you do this 38 years, you don't know where your warehouse is. No, no, no, it's in North Kansas City. Like we're good. Is he the one running it?

I don't know, dude. It's a fascinating proposal. Benefitting the doubt on that one, North Kansas City slash Kansas City is kind of all like, I don't know, I don't know. But like, was he really trying to get that technical with like, duh, the zip code. So it's zip code is this. It's off the old railroad. What's the name of that railroad? You wouldn't know it. I

can't. Yeah. Okay. Just, just say it's north of the river. That's good enough for me. It was great. I was just very thankful that Isaac was there to experience it with me that way. And I'd be like, you guys will never believe this guy. I'm like, yeah. I was messing with you, dude. I was messing with you. They don't cost five bucks. That's so funny. I read something, you know, I'm bricked most of the time these days,

but I did read something in my athletic daily email. Talk to me. Have you heard, do you know the name Paul Skeens? Yeah, Libby Dunn's boyfriend. Oh, that'll help. Yeah. Rookie pitcher. Yeah. Really good pitcher. Maybe one of the Cy Young. Not positive, but really good. For sure. Rookie of the year. But I read this. It says, you know, who's, I'll just read the whole thing. You know, who's already on a Hall of Fame track after one season, Pirates pitching sensation,

Paul Skeens. It's early, but if he can maintain health and velocity, there's no reason to think he won't make it to Coovers now at some point, which is why a one of one addition of his tops rookie card unearthed by an 11 year old collector yesterday is such a big deal. You heard about this? No. The card is enormously valuable, the athletics Larry Holder told me. He said it could fetch $1 million at an auction. It could fetch it. Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba

Oh, okay Potentially a million dollar card or this from the pirates either no deal and let's let's let's assume this is a million dollars for you or This package for your favorite team, whatever. Yeah. Yeah chiefs, you know Royals, whatever two season tickets behind home plate for the next 30 years Wow a Softball game for 30 people at the park, the PNC park. What's a fun little perk? A fun little perk for a million dollars. That's what I like.

I'm like, okay, I don't know. And a meet and greet with skeins, a chance to warm up with the team, autographed jerseys and quote unquote, other experiences. Wow. The pirates themselves want that card that bad. I guess. Yeah, that is interesting. That's a great first offer. I think the kids, you know, obviously negotiate a little bit.

It's a great first offer. I mean, the season tickets thing is the most intriguing. It's 80 games. Times 30 years. You sold 90% of those. How much money is that over the course of 30 years? Yeah, true. You could sell them. Can you get two hundred thousand

dollars of your money back? Now your money back, but of money selling to those season tickets? I don't know. That's still eight hundred thousand in the hole, though. Well, you think about the softball game?

Oh, yes. A thousand dollar cost. The softball game is cool, but it's like we got to play a football game in the arrowhead, that's a really fun Saturday. Yeah. But you know, also let's get hurt. I might want it to be a baseball game. No offense.

Softball. You go baseball for your dream over softball is what I'm saying. Okay. Yeah. 11 year old face. Come on. Yeah. You mean you'd feel real small as an 11 year old playing on that field.

Unless you changed up the thing, like the bases, and then it's not fun. Here's where the 11 year olds at. If he takes the deal, he's going to be rooting against Paul Skeens his entire career. Like, I don't want him to do well because that card's only going to get higher in value. And I gave it away. Oh, if he takes the deal. If he keeps the card, then he gets to root for Paul Skeens, which I think is more fun.

Okay. Yes. That card could be worth definitely more than million dollars. If it's one of one, that could be worth, you know, two or three times. I mean, he could, yeah, he could be the, I don't, I don't, yeah, I don't know how cards work and their value and everything,

but I know that they're very valuable right now. If it's one of one. It's not like real estate though, where it's like, oh, it's definitely going to appreciate forever You know like cards might not be valuable anymore Yeah, if he gets the old Tommy J in a year to you know or something and he is a person becomes less valuable Well, I'm just and I'm just saying just in general sports cards. I don't know if they're gonna always be valuable. I think what you you talking spurred on a thought in me of like, give them that card, but get another Paul skeins rookie card.

That's decently valuable. And then you can continue to root on him and be like, yeah, that, that card. Cause I've heard people that have like my home's rookie cards are worth, you know, tons of money now or whatever. Like, okay, get them one that's worth $10,000 right now. I don't know how much they're whatever. Like, okay, get them one that's worth $10,000 right now. I don't know how much they're worth these days, but like get them one That's decent amount of money. But then if this guy ends up being the best pitcher of all time Okay, that is all of a sudden worth a hundred thousand. Wow. I just got a notification three minutes ago Paul Skeens an 11 year old pulled the one of one Paul Skeens Ricky garden

The Pirates are offering a bounty that isn't close to good enough. Ah Thank you. I did feel like it's not it's not good enough. I mean I voted they had a poll It was like vote in the poll what you would do and I was like, I'm gonna vote a hundred percent that I yeah So, you know, so that's a fun little position. He's found himself in as an 11 year old. Yeah, you got a hold though Gotta hold hold So what would you do, Timon? I don't know. Think about your favorite team.

Get to play a softball game on their field. Yeah, definitely that. M&Us, theater. You can go to chapel every day. Not a question. Anyway. Hadn't barely even heard of Paul Skeens. That's how low on the MLB totem pole I am.

From what I know, Lisa Gluck, correct me, I think he got called up pretty late because he was like a first round draft pick, maybe first overall if I'm crazy, but didn't get called up to like half way through the season. And then immediately it's just mowing people down as soon as he got called up. It's still one rookie of the year even though he played half the season. I think he was really, really good.

Cool. Can bring Dai Heat. Last thing I've got on my list, doesn't mean we have to stop talking, I think it was really, really good. Cool. Can bring that heat. Last thing I've got on my list, doesn't mean we have to stop talking, but last thing I wanted to bring up is my dad texted me yesterday morning, said last night sucked. At 11.45, I remembered my workout,

but I did get my 100 pushups in. So he's still doing it. 11.45. He's 23 days in. That's awesome. But yeah, I was like, join the club. I said, it's the worst. I said, I would forget to run my miles sometimes in September of last year and think I've got to be the dumbest guy on the planet if this still isn't a habit yet.

So genetic. I get it. Yeah. Well, that's, that's what you're talking about. Like, it's not like this new thing that you're doing is not something you can just forget and just like, I'll go grab and do that real quick. Yeah. You know, like you can, I guess, just stand up right now and do some kind of workout.

But like the thing you're trying to do is much more intense than like, it's a full like you pledged 360 fitness. Yeah. You could put the checklist on the mile within 15 minutes of start to stop to cool down, to change your clothes. Yeah. If you needed to, whereas like this is like, okay, this is a little bit more intense. Yeah. But clothes. Yeah. If you needed to. Whereas like this is like, okay, this is a little bit more intense. Yeah, but. It's awesome. Yeah.

Good job Steve, keep going baby. My dad, your coach, and my father-in-law have all done it. Now, verdict's still out on John. We don't see a lot of proof of John doing it, but he claims he's done it, but we don't actually know. I just wanna see the form. And you know what, like even if the form's not pretty, you're doing it. So, but he claims he's done it, but we don't actually, I just want to see the form. And you know what? Like even if the form is not pretty, you're doing it. That's just good for you guys. We're doing it. You know, something I have on my notes

that I haven't like, I just, I wish so badly. We talked about it so long ago. Truly. It's like, this is silly to talk about now. But I thought it was so funny is from the pheasant hunt. I have a note about Harrison from the pheasant hunt. Yes, dude. And I was just like, I don't know. Maybe I'll eventually put this in there. Here I am. Do you remember? It's like, it's like a five second moment, but do you remember after the pheasant hunt was over and we like collect all our pheasants, like to pick them up and to take a picture of us holding the pheasants.

Second day. Uh, Harrison, like picked up two pheasants and pretended like they were having a conversation with each other. Do you remember that? And like he was, it was, you know, it was like a Saturday morning or whatever. He was like, I told you we shouldn't have gone out today. You're always wanting to go to those farmer's markets. Why can't you just want to stay in?

This is what happens, you know? And it was just the funniest thing. And I forgot to talk about it on the pheasant episode. And then I was like, oh, I'll talk about it the next week. So I wrote in my notes and I kept forgetting it till right now. And it's just a funny thing. Absolutely remember, that was so funny.

Yeah, they kept complaining to each other. They've been hunted. I told you we need to go outside. This is what happens when you get me out of there. I just want to stay at home in peace. So. That's good. I'm glad you got out there.

Shout out to Harry. He's hilarious. A few other just quick hitters from me. Nothing crazy here, but I noticed myself getting frustrated at old drivers a lot recently. Not intentionally because they're old. You find out later they're old.

Yeah, and it's like more and more happening to me. I don't know if I'm driving more during the old time of the day or what, but like, what are you doing? And then it's like, okay, fine. You're 80 years old. I don't know about you. I guess it's a stereotype. I don't know where it comes from, but I have a little patience if like a Buick is driving slow in front of me.

I'm like that. I kind of know who's driving probably. But what happens is sometimes it'll be like a lifted truck is in the far like left lane driving slow. I'm like, well, that doesn't make sense. They're not they're not old. Yeah. Yeah, I will say these days old people driving newer cars. Are they I'm talking rav4s. I'm talking the crvs of the the world. Look out. Watch out, they're not in just like, obviously, like they're on the old mobiles. Yeah. So I don't know if it's just easier for them to get up

in those cars, or sit down in the, you know, Accords of the world, but that, I'm reading some new books. I got done with Bear Town. I started a new book last night too. Bear Town was fine, FYI, everybody that's interested. I like, I enjoyed it, but also it was like, I don't know if I truly enjoyed it, cause it was dark. It was a sad book. Anyway. What'd you give it on Goodreads?

How, what's the scale? You know, scale. Oh, I would give it six and a half pages. Yeah, okay. Six and a half pages. I would read again. I might even read more of the series or whatever. I guess there's a series, but nothing, nothing crazy. I'm reading two new books, just telling people in case it's, uh, resonating with them. Uh, I've listened to atomic habits, but I'm now reading atomic habits, which I think you would enjoy a lot. Great. Um, and then I'm also reading a book called parenting. That's all

Paul. David Tripp. Yeah. It's about parenting. Yeah. Uh, I got it when I was like like when we were pregnant with Hattie and then I started reading I was like, oh, this is like a It's like a why don't have this is not like a Playbook on put parenting. It's like a Figure that like once you're once you're into parenting. I just want to look at parent I don't know how to view it not not like a this is how to take care of a newborn You don't know. Yeah, you don't know this but yeah, babies can suffocate at this. It's like, okay. No, so reading those books Anyway, anybody want to talk about them? Let me know. I started reading the handmade last night. Rachel highly recommended it turns out there They're making a movie because it's a good book. So that's kind of exciting
