We're live. It's Monday morning. Yes, it is. Top of the morning, ghosties. If you're listening to this in the morning, it's Monday morning. If you're listening to this afternoon, it's not Monday morning. It was morning when I woke up this morning. You might have a little something on the left side of your mouth. You know what? It's a cut or something. I'm sorry I brought it up.

So don't show me on YouTube. I would not like to be on YouTube. It's a dry season for me. And people have said hey Did you have some Hershey's chocolate earlier today? Yeah, I said no Brad. It's 9 a.m.. Why do you have chocolate? Dude, I don't know what it is. It's like. Yeah, smiling too much ah Like just big old or whatever whatever that was that was my that was my laugh. That's how I laugh You've never never heard me genuinely laugh. That's how you laugh. You've never heard me genuinely laugh?

That's how you laughed, I think, you know, fourth quarter of the Super Bowl. Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah. That makes so much fun. We're having fun. Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah. It's like, are you a monkey or? I woke up this morning.

Did you wake up this morning? Yeah, early for me. Same. I woke up hearing Rosie scream out like this. Ready? Mommy! Okay. Pretty serious. Mommy! Mommy! I spring in that. Okay, hold on. She shares a room with Hattie? She shares a room with Hattie. I think we're going on four or five nights in a row now that Rosie slept in our bed though. Like she's come in and crawled into bed with us.

Rosie, we're going to call her resourceful Rosie someday because whatever, long story short, Catherine slept in the basement last night. No, no qualms. It's just something with the lip thing. She's not happy with it. She's like, golly, you're ugly. I can't look at you right now. Wipe your face. No. Anyway. And so just me by myself in bed, she comes in, there's no pillow for her.

She goes out 10 seconds later, she comes back waddling in with her pillow. That's as big as her and just plops it on there and lies down in bed with me. Anyway, she's no longer in bed with me when I'm hearing her scream. Okay. And she has become potty trained pretty well, but she still needs help wiping, especially when I longer in bed with me when I'm hearing her scream. Okay. And she has become potty trained pretty well, uh, but she still needs help wiping, especially number two. And so I'm like, she's going to, she needs help wiping. She's just screaming for Catherine, but it kind of sounds like she's in distress.

And I spring into action as fast as I can. And I walk out and I can't find her anywhere. I'm like, does she go back in Hattie's room with her? Like is she screaming, waking Hattie up? She waking Henry up, waking Bo up, waking Catherine up down in the basement. I find her looking out our front window towards your house, kind of back. I can only see her feet. She's like in the curtain, like, and only her feet are sticking out. And I go, Rosie, what's going on? And she has looked

at him as he goes, snow, snow outside. That's it. And I was like, you are going to wake up the entire block. So I don't know if you heard it, uh, but man, I think we got CPS called on us a few times this morning Wait, that was this morning? Yes, which is the second day yesterday Yes, it didn't even snow today. It's just still on the ground Mommy! Snow! This is the girl you want to call resourceful

Resourceful Rosie She's blind, but she is resourceful Hey, she's using her eyes Why didn't she see the snow yesterday? She 100% did. She just still excited today to see it. That's beautiful. So, yeah, so that's-

Tomorrow she's gonna wake up. Dad! 100%, we need to talk to her about this. Trees! Trees. Once she got us in the same room, it was like normal volume. Trees.

Snow. Eddie! Oh my gosh. I thought she was-. Yeah. Upside down somehow like stuck something. No. Okay, Rosie. Do your thing girl. So that's that's how we started off the morning. Top of the morning. Oh, I think this type means that it's going down with some

random thoughts and white me to Midwest best friends eating fast food on repeat So come along. Let's have some fun and go ahead get on your feet because it's a ghost from the Spock All right, yes, it is Monday here. Are we calling it a manic Monday? A morning Monday, a different kind of morning. Chiefs of law Superbowl. Oh, did you know? I see where you're going with this.

It's a, it's, I believe it's eight days after the Superbowl for the people listening. So people are going to want to hear us talk all about the Super Bowl. It's all good. It's all good. It's all good. We won the last two. We won the last two. That's right. Didn't we? We almost went back to back to back. We almost didn't even think about that. Yeah. They didn't talk about that much with that. They've done that a lot in super like in NFL history, right? I don't even know. Okay. Tymon, do you have any idea? I don't know. Yeah, well I would have to know, yeah. No, I don't know. Maybe they have done it before,

but we watched Super Bowl. Tymon, you watched Super Bowl? I did. How was it for you? What was the score on your TV? Yeah. It was, I, it was kind of dismal. Dismal.

Dismal. Like. It like a big old dismal suit. I did feel like it's I don't watch very many like football games like this kind of a sad one to be watching. Yeah. Time is there. I watch a football game again. Honestly, this is how it is. This is the team you said of so good. Yeah. Yeah. Gross. That's how like a lot of high school football games go where it's just like one team is absolutely wrecking the other team.

There's just a massive skill gap. And there's nothing you can do. It's like those guys aren't even getting four yards of play. Like they're just getting pushed back every single day. You feel bad for them. Well, they didn't have the same opportunities probably as them. Probably not. Their equipment is not quite as good.

Probably. They're practicing with a heavy like rain soaked ball. Yeah. Does our team, did they have weighted vest on? I mean, that is what it looked like. What is going on out there? It did not look like the two best teams in the NFL. Did they forget that it was on Sunday? Maybe like some days they play,

I know they played on like Monday sometime this year. They got surprised. And all of a sudden it's like, whoa, it's time to play today. Okay, I guess we'll do this and just try our best. And they tried their best, I think. I think they tried their best, I think. I think they tried their best. But yeah, it was a, it was not,

it was not a outcome that we wanted, but I would say overall, I can't think of really too many times at our watch party where any of us were like really sad, right? No, I don't think so. I think it's like, it's all perspective. One in the greater scheme of life, but two in the greater scheme of even just being a Chiefs fan.

It's like, you know what? We've had it pretty good. We were 15 and one. We had a lot of like really fun, really close games. This is fine. You know, just take one just massive 126 million, you know, punch to the face here. You know, it's all good. We had insane hope, I guess.

Like we were playing mental gymnastics almost the entire, definitely the first half, second half. I think the end of the first half, the Chiefs were down 17-0 and then the Eagles scored to go up 24-0. And I think that's when we started being like, maybe this isn't our night. This may not work out for us.

Yeah, you know what I did? I did a lot of rationalizing. Tom Brady famously came back from 28 to three. Man, was I hanging onto that. Cause even 24-0 is like, oh, I was like, what's gonna be a greater comeback in history, 28-3 or 24-0? I don't know.

I know there's a point difference. We get ball in half. We'll make a long half time. They're used to that. They're gonna make a lot of adjustments. It's gonna be way different in the second half. There was really nothing to cheer for, really most of the game, but we did have the fun box.

That was, do you think without the box of fun, the fun box, would we have had as good of a time? It definitely, it gave us some juice. It gave us plenty of reason to keep watching. In hindsight, I'm so glad we had the box of fun. Yeah. So I decided to I'm just trying to really lean into this camp counselor personality. I've been giving given.

Yeah. It's giving. Yikes. And just try to elevate just like little things in life. And anyway, so I was like, all right, I'm gonna do like a fun little kind of prop bet thing for all of us who watch Super Bowl. Cause before the Chiefs were good, we used to watch Super Bowl and make our own little prop bets

on Gatorade Color, National Anthem Time. And now we're just like into the game. I was like, well, there's still an element of that. So I prepared this big cardboard box of just goodies in it. No one knew what was in it. It was just the box of fun. And I wrote down little wagers, things that could happen, made everyone draw three.

And so everyone had a little stake in the game. And there were things that were like, pre-game, it was like, oh yeah, these could all realistically happen. I knew they wouldn't all happen, but when the game's not going your way, way is really hard to get to the fun box Just give me that box Four in the box. We were trying to get you know stack as many we can the box But I will say Brad did just fine on the fun box, which is funny. Yeah, I I monopolize the fun box

There was a season like we're before or when we all pulled them out at the beginning, we all read them out loud, like what we got. And I was like, I don't know if I like any of mine. I don't know if I'm going to do well. I had three Eagles rushes for zero yards or one yard, something like that. Zero or negative yards. Zero or negative yards.

And then I had Chiefs force a turnover, which Chiefs are not traditionally a big turnover team. And then I had Xavier Worley touchdown. I was like, they're going to, they're going to know to guard him. I don't know about any of these. And then I think I got three before anybody else got it. No one else got to go to the fun box. I, Oh, it's Brad again. Oh, every time they kept tackling for a loss, we're like, that's good. That's tag for a lot. There we go. Two, three. Yeah. And so I hustled up because the fun box was upstairs. Uh, we were downstairs. It was a show and tell. We sat. Yeah. Two, three. Yeah. And so I hustled up because the fun box was upstairs. We were

downstairs. It was a show and tell. We sat. Yeah. We sacked them or, you know, whatever stopped them for a negative yardage. I sprinted up those stairs and I, I'm not a superstitious guy by any means. I'm a little stitious, but first thing out of the fun box was this hat pretty green, pretty Eagles colored. I'm not saying I'm just saying, yeah. Not superstitious at all. Honestly, I used to be, it used to be like a little bit like, I don't know if I can wear this or I need to wear the same thing. I think me and my dad would kind of jokingly be superstitious watching the chiefs growing up. At that point in time, we had such little to hold on to as like maybe Yeah, it is. You know, not a lot has gone well, and I did just microwave something Right when we scored dad you've been wearing the Tamarik van over Jersey for five games in a row

We've won five get you have to wear that. Yeah, don't wash that Jersey. Whatever all the things I wonder if there's a element of that that is true though. Like if Travis Kelsey Post game sees a video of some little kid screaming in his basement, he's like, we have the best fans in the world. I'm gonna have a little extra oomph for them. Describe oomph. Oh, just like- Quantify oomph.

Like I'm gonna try to catch the ball even harder next time. No, just like one extra push, one extra oomph. It's intangible. You can't quantify it. I'd say hard to prove then. I know. Yeah. But you know what I mean though?

Like, like we have the best fans in the world. I'm going to play even harder because I know those guys at home are watching me. You think? I don't really, I don't, I don't buy in. Yeah. That's the only, that's the only reason I could think of a little superstition that might work like, well, I don't think I watched that I don't buy in. Yeah, that's the only that's the only reason I could think of a little superstition that might work like, well, I don't think I watched that video those guys and none of them were wearing chiefs gear. So I didn't I'm not going to work that hard for them. I'm not going to I'm not going to give an extra push. Yeah.

So yeah, fun box is great. I mean, even we're getting destroyed. It's like the fourth quarter, you know, something happens where we do get a sack on third down and Peter's going nuts. Yeah baby! Yeah, yeah. Fun Box time! Yeah, Xavier Worthy scored in garbage time and that was my last Fun Box. I ran up there and got some protein powder. Yeah, so there was a couple things, protein powder, some nice hats, Eagles colors, some Sunday sweaters, some golf apparel, some golf balls, Peter got those. Where was the kickball originally from?

Kickball, that was for a Friday Pickleball video way back in the day. Like playing pickleball with different balls. Nice. Yeah, Scott got the kickball. What else was in there? That was about it. Just fun stuff. I got some Diva like sampler pack. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Some like living room spray. What else was in there? Fabric? I haven't opened it yet to be honest. I don't even remember. some like living room spray. What else is in there? Was it fabric? I think it was a candle. I haven't opened it yet, to be honest. I don't even remember. It just stared at me thinking, reminded me of the chief's law. No, I'm just kidding.

How do you cope? Not that we even really needed to cope. Like we all were like, this was fun. Thanks guys. Like we all watched the entire game. We laughed, you know, but I did watch like all the post game. And then I watched an episode of The Floor,

the game show that was on the TV afterwards. You ever watched that? I've never even heard of it. I've seen like advertisers for it, but I had never watched it. Kind of a fun game. Let me guess who the host is, because I feel like this is just a show.

Nick Cannon. Good guess, no. Rob Lowe. Very good, yes. Oh really? Yes. Maybe I have seen it then. What happens?

Honestly, I'm kind of into it. I think I could have watched it in six minutes and I watched it for an hour instead because of all the commercials and they like, make it longer than it needs to be. But every time they went to a commercial, I was like, are you kidding me? And then I kept watching it.

Like cliffhangers? Not even, just like, oh, we're gonna wait and do the next one after this commercial. I was like, are you kidding me? And then I kept watching it like cliffhangers. Not even just like a, oh, we're going to wait and do the next one after this commercial play the floor with me and timing. Okay. So the floor starts with like 60 people. We'll say it starts with two this time. Every single person has a expertise, like subject of expertise. So what would your subject be? Archaeology, geography,, geography. Really? OK, I'll go woodworking for mine. So you're doing it like that. I should have done that. Well, change it then.

OK. OK. Teeth, videography. Oh, teeth, teeth and videography. I love this. So so the idea is like you're still going to win. It's still kind of archaeology. They randomize. So they say, you know, it's just like slot machines. Like how do you randomize it? But randomly choose one person on the floor. So let's say they choose you, Jake, all the people around you, you, you see all their subject expertise. Oh, okay. Yeah. So

it might be children's literature. What was yours? Videography, videography, woodworking, you know, sports MVPs, you know, architecture. And you choose one of these people to challenge in their, in their category, sweet spot. Right. And so it's like, yeah, not only do you have to know about obviously your thing, but you do you have to know about obviously your thing, but you have to know about everybody else's thing to an extent. I love the floor. So then you go and challenge somebody head to head up on the stage, not no longer on the floor on the stage. And basically they show you a picture and you go back and forth identifying what the picture is. Okay. Every trivia question is that format.

Like, tell me what this picture is. Pretty much. Every once in a while, it's a fill in the blank, like children's books. They have like a James and the Giant blank or whatever. And each person has 45 seconds. OK. And the idea is that you're trying to run out of time.

You're trying to have the other person run out of time, and you're trying to save all your time. So like, if it's James and the Giant, you'd say, peach. And then it would go to the next person. And then, you're trying to have the other person run out of time and you're trying to save all your time. So like, if it's James the giant, you'd say peach and then it would go to the next person and then. Oh, it's like chess. It were like someone's timer is going at any given time. Yes, I guess so. I didn't know that was how chess works, but yes.

It's like, and so, yeah, then it would go to them and they would start their 45 second clock and they're like, ah, little blank. I don't know, little pixies, little, little women. Okay, next. Yeah, if they don't know it, they can pass, but they lose three seconds for passing and then they have to answer a new one.

Great. So I don't really know how we would do that very well. Let's do teeth, okay? That's easy. Okay, let's do teeth. Dr. Ben Miller, you're going up against, Dr. Ben's actually like, actually I'm a dentist, so I'm going to do teeth with Jake. And I chose to go against that.

Oh man. So then they would show this tooth. And what would you say? Canine. Yes. And then Ben would say, oh, that's a left incisor X4. Yes. And then it's your, this tooth?

Pass. Okay. And then is this tooth? Front. Is it front? Pass. Okay. This tooth? Back. Back tooth. Okay. That's okay. That's fine. And then Ben would look at him and be like, that's an elephant's tusk and be like, very good. And then it's your turn again. I should have done archeology. Yeah. It was interesting though. Cause like, obviously near the end, they make them harder. Because at first somebody's like, like one of the categories is pets. They're like, oh, I know I'm such a good pet person.

Like they're, they always show like a little like B roll or whatever they call it. Like back backstage interview, like talking head of like, yeah, I grew up with tons of pets. Yeah. I dominate pets. Okay. Good for you. It's really funny. Like watch them try to like justify why

they chose. And then somebody else is like, yeah, I've had a few pets in my day. So I think I'll do pretty well at this too. Pets is a little open ended. I'd be very curious how far they stretch pets. Cause I would think like, is this a dog, dogs and cats trivia or like chickens? Yeah. So eventually they got away with saying dog and cat, but then eventually after like, you know, six or seven of them, they had to say like the exact dog. I think they ever go that they get into like turtles and they did. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, sure. Like that. Sure. They did. Jake turtles. Cockatiels was one of them. Wouldn't have known that one. That's a bird. It took me a split second. Yeah. Yellow. Maybe I think so. Okay. Uh, but then other times it's like, I don't know

what kind of, and then it's like parrot. It's like, Oh, I knew parrot. I thought he wanted something cool. But if it were me, I would just be spouting off every answer as fast as I could. Yeah. There's no penalty. Sometimes people are like, uh, dog, uh, I'd be like dog golden retriever, husky black lab. It's like that thing is clearly not black, but okay. Anyway, but this is this is like one of those games that could have been played like if you watch a youtube highlight of it, you could watch it for five minutes. Oh, but they stretch it. They stretch it out. Okay. How are you feeling about this? I feel good. I feel good. Okay. Good answer. How do you feel about this?

Oh, I'm going to win. I'm going to win. Oh, he says he's gonna win. You hear that Darcy? Let's see. I'm Rob Lowe. Yeah Literally, you're gonna win So anyway, that's how I kind of coped is watching that till like 11 45 at night. That's fun. Okay, it's fun You bring up the floor. I was planning on quizzing you guys. Oh perfect a day cuz we last week We talked about different social studies terms, I quizzed you guys on geography. And I'd like several people text me,

it was like, I love that so much. Trivia show. And so we don't need to take too much time, but you guys are gonna go head to head again. You've heard of the floor, this is the studio. How you feel about it, Timon? Fine. Good answer.

Brad, how are you feeling going up against Timon today? Better. Ready. This is gonna be an epic match between two guys I know. Wait, I'm gonna be, for the Beast games out there, I'm gonna channel my inner tea. Tara, Tara. Tiana. Tiana, whatever her name is.

Born for this. Rachel can't stand the way she's... Oh, no, who can't? Like, I was born for this. I do love that. Ready. They haven't even told her what the game is yet. They're like, all right, we need competitors to step up to the plate. Yeah, she's just doing that. Like, you don't even know what you're doing yet. Yep. I got this you think you should flip that coin. You should flip that coin That's it I haven't even seen the show and I can tell it's accurate She like knows that she's kind of scary and she leans into it so hard. I remember two things one It was either episode one or two I know there were hundreds of contestants still out there. And I told, I predicted to Rachel, I said,

that girl is going to win it all. Really? So even though I'm not rooting for her, I am kind of like, well, I kind of put some stock in her. That would be great. For the record, we don't know who wins it all yet. Yeah, I think it's over by the time you're listening to this, but we don't know.

Yes. That's not a spoiler, though, is what I'm trying to say. Yeah. But also I saw that she was a pro wrestler. It's why I do think she knows how to like act. 100%. You know. Obviously, but like I looked up Mikey by the way,

drummer Mikey that won a Grammy. False information, dude. I don't even remember drummer Mikey that won a Grammy. Maybe his name is not Mikey. The guy that took 200, spoiler alert, the guy that took some money necktats. Oh, necktats. What's his name?

Is his Mikey? You just know his numbers. You, you psycho. I know it was necktats. Yeah. He, uh, it kept on like the bottom. It would be like, I think his name is Mikey, Mikey Grammy award winning musician. And I looked, I was like, what band is this guy in?

He was in some like Irish ska punk band that never won a Grammy. How'd they get that wrong? I don't know. Maybe it's that easy to just put something on your resume and no one will double check. Huh. Well, anyway, today's trivia category is going to be history. Oh, Tyman, how are you feeling now? Um, I never finished this subject. There's probably stuff that I'm missing. So but I'm feeling good. Yes. Because you're going up against this guy who has self-proclaimed bad at anything with dates.

And that is everything we're going to be doing today. So we got two guys who don't know history. Yo, tomorrow's Valentine's Day. Let's see how bad I am at dates then, huh? Hey, did Parks and Recs spawn on Galentine's Day? Did they start that? Yeah, I think so. Yeah, I think so.

I was, you know, now working out, I just consume the local news casually. Like with my headphones in, I see the local news on mute. And so they were kind of like, you know, I could just see figments of it in the distance I was like, I think that's what they're trying to say, but I don't yeah, I don't know I think I break 13th. I think it was at least at least popularized by parks and recs same with treat yourself That's a that's a thing that I feel like people say yes about treat yourself Okay, this is gonna be a little US history little world history. You each get to guess it's whoever is closest to the year. Oh, it's the point. Okay

What's that game called that you get guess and whoever's closest? Oh floor? I know it wits and wagers or something like that. Yeah All right First event The let's start off the lease here, please The Berlin Wall falls, okay Do we? Yeah, you take turns who goes first. This is the studio after okay

Tear down that wall said Ronald Reagan who'd he say it to bonus question mr. Gorbachev good and that was in 19 Nope. Yep, 19 for sure 1987 See I'm glad that you went first this time this is gonna help me every time you go first shouldn't I shouldn't have reasoned No, it's okay. I'm gonna say This is going to help me every time you go first. I shouldn't have reasoned. Nah, it's okay. I'm going to say, um, 81, 1981.

Brad is correct. I was born for this. Reaganomics, yo. I turned in Jesse Pinkman. 1989. Every time you guys answer, you just, you need to become just someone else. Reaganomics, yo. Yeah. Yeah. Politics. Yeah, every time you guys answer you just you need to become just someone else Reaganomics, yo Yeah, yeah politics

All right Tyman you have to go first this time great can't wait for this one What year did the pilgrims land at Plymouth Rock and sign the Mayflower Compact? Oh, no This was a long time ago. This was a long time ago. This was a long time ago. But I'm trying to think if it was before or after. Jesus. Right.

Yeah. AD. AD. I'm trying to think if it was before or after America. That's like the founding. That's how much I I how little I know. But I'm going to say I'm going to say 1670. Whoa, a lot after America. After I think he means like United States of America. Oh, yeah. That's what I was saying. This is a point

of contention. I can ask this in a future trivia question. No, no, no. I thought you meant like Columbus, America. I see, no. Wow. 1578. Brad is slightly closer. Wow, you did that math in your head. That's impressive.

1620. And what did you say, time? 1670. Wow. did you say, Tyman? 1670. Wow. Okay. That's close. I'm closer. Yes, 15 to like 42.

Wow. Wow. You guys still pretty good though. I'm happy with- I know everything about Squanto! Plymouth Rock is what built this! Yeah, rocks! Yeah, rocks!

Yeah, science! Were we gonna say timing? I would say I am pleasantly surprised that I got that close. I think that's probably gonna be like my best answer. You lost by 50 years. Yeah, that's as good as it gets. Cornucopia, yo! Brad, you have to go first this time.

What year was the United Nations formed? Easy. Rub those hands. 1956. This character is great. 1970. Brad is correct. 30 was 1945 oh man I was like I feel like it's got to be after World War two

it was right after I guess all right let's get religious time you have to go first what year did Martin Luther start the Protestant Reformation? This was this was quite this was quite some time ago. I'm this I'm that's a good preface. Hey, before I say this number, I don't want you guys be shocked. Yeah, yeah, this is going to be an old number.

Um, when was Luther doing his thing? What was he? That is the question. I'm going to say 1820. 1820. Wow. I was going to guess so much different than that. What were you going to say?

I don't time and what are you going to say? Now I was going to say, I honestly, I don't know anything about this. Like, or not, not very much, but you're still going to beat me though. Probably. Yes. I could just take the strategy and go 18, 19 to just. It's true. I was going to say like, triple digits. Like, oh, 566 or something.

I don't know. OK. But that's a terrible idea. Because he was a Luther. Luther's are, they make loots. Yeah. Yeah. So those things.

When those come out. They're biblical. I think they have them in the Bible, but I think they came more mainstream, like affordable for like the everyday use and like, hey, teach your kids how to play the lute. Yeah, like blacksmiths couldn't afford this. That wasn't until like the, I think that was 18.

Yeah, that makes sense. I'm gonna say 17 He gets kind of overshadowed but it was 1776 Yeah, yeah, yeah, 1776. This all happened in one year. Yeah Brad wins again. Correct answer is 1517. Oh, wow. Okay time when they gave us a warning This is gonna be an old year. I thought maybe you were gonna go back a little further. Dang. I was between 16 and 18.

Dude, it would be really fun, honestly, to do this quiz with Hattie. Cause she might. She'd beat me for sure. That's like what she's doing right now is like learning the story of the world, like the timeline of the world. She would at least have like,

like she has a song, dude. This song that she knows is 10 minutes long and she could see all these different things. Gangus Khan rules the Mongols. Magna Carta. Like she knows all these different things. I was about to ask about Magna Carta. Gorbachev tears down that wall. It's just so I can, I can picture the book that told me so much of this stuff and just remember hating to read that book and just like, but get it is over with. And I'm like, dang, I should have known in 2025, this is going to be a podcast quiz. That's right.

We'll do just a few more. All right, Brad, you have to go first. What year was the fall of the Roman Empire? Oh, I'm going to go 700, 700. Even. Even, straight up. 500. Time is on the board. Wow. Really close, 476. Oh, you dropped time.

Wow. That's one of those things I think Hattie would know that because there's like certain things where it's like Like like she has like before she sings the part she says like years You know five hundred to a thousand or something and then she sings it so at least you would have like wow She knows like the arrows. Yeah kind of wild dude, huh? Wow. All right, we'll do one last one. This one's worth a thousand.

But time, it has to go first. What year did the French Revolution begin? 1700. Oh gosh. No, wait. I can't even give an educated guess. So I'm going to say, well, I'm trying to think, was that just way before? Oh, no, that was like 16.

I'm just going to say 1612. 1612. Post-Luther. 1612. I'll go French Revolution. Let's see. I'm trying to think. I know a lot of revolutions, so I'm trying to get them all straight in my head. I'm bad with dates, so I don't know if I'm going to get this one right on the head, but I'll do 1696.

Brad went to 1000 points. It was 1789. Oh, wow. I don't know how I win. 1696. Brad went to thousand points. It was 1789. Oh, wow. I don't know. I went, I think if you're over a hundred away, I guess I wasn't 100. Yeah, no, you were within the realm. Yeah.

Wow. Wow. Okay. All right. Good stuff, guys. Really good stuff. Yeah, really good stuff. Yeah.

I am going to I'm going to quiz Hattie on these and see if she knows them. Yeah. Because yeah, at least some of them, the newer ones. I don't think she would know but what about September 11th? Is that in her song honestly like is that I don't know updated is like I don't know If she's gotten there yet in her memorization, but I think she's gotten close I don't I haven't heard them say the Twin Towers of the Pentagon or how they rhyme that or anything So it is, it seems wrong to like put that in a song, but then you're like, well, all we're putting Genghis Khan in a song, probably putting the Holocaust in a song. Yeah. I haven't heard, I haven't heard like anything

from like the 19, like I haven't heard any words that I know pretty much the whole time. I'm learning a lot of new words. Mycenaeans, Pax Romana heard of those. Mycenaeans, pox romana. Heard of those? Mycenaeans, I don't know what pox romana is. It's the time in Rome where there was peace, pox. Oh, that's nice. Yeah. I also learned that they named the Pacific Ocean that way because it was a peaceful ocean, which

is a misnomer. I hear things every once in a while when I'm listening to my daughter get home schooled. So I also learned that they're not sure if Columbus is Spaniard or Portuguese or Italian maybe. Really? Because he but he left from Spain because he didn't get his he didn't get approval from the king and queen of Portugal on his mission, his ride. So he went to Spain and Spain's like, yeah, we'll help you out.

It seems hard to get permission from a king and queen. How'd you even get in touch with a king and queen back then? Uh, back then it was, it was easier than it is today, believe it or not. You just go and you just yell loud enough. Yeah. Like there's snow on the ground. I want you to take my boat. Boats. Can I go? I want to ride my boat. It's like you're trying to go to like your friend's house. Can I ride my boat? Hey, they, they, they, their parents said it was fine. If you said it was fine. You mind it's a, it's all on you. All right. When are you going to be back? Oh, 50 years max. They said that they, they, they could get us dinner. We could go to Culver's. They said, that cool. Okay. I said Culver's and polio. Can I please come on? Come on. We won't we won't we don't extract it too much

extract contract date I Forgot to tell the story but a couple weeks ago. I actually I was in a burning building My whole house caught on fire. The whole thing crumbled beneath me. I was the only one in the house and thought I was gonna die. And then right when I thought I couldn't take any longer, there's an outstretched hand firefighter, someone,

I don't know, guardian angel. They reached out and they grabbed me. They pulled me from the wreckage. They get the flames off of me. I said, thank you so much. You saved my life. I said, what's your name? And he said, I'm a good ranchers farmer.

Really? I just wanted to help. Yeah. Oh my, what a hero. Yeah. Dude, that's crazy. You said good ranchers farmer. That's what he said his name was.

Yeah, dude. Just the other day I was riding my BMX bike and riding down the street and there was just a natural ramp. I was like, I had never met a ramp I didn't like. Yeah. And so I just, I stood ramp. I was like, I've never met a ramp I didn't like. Yeah. And so I, uh, just, I, I stood up while I was getting some speed going, flew up and natural momentum, you know, pretty top heavy guy, uh, just flew right over the handlebars, skinned from knee cap down to ankles.

Gross. Yeah, it was, it was rough. It was just a bad scene. I passed out. I passed out. And when I came to, the only person that was looking over me was this just rugged, caring, intentional, full of integrity man. And I said, Dad, he's like, no, it's me, a good ranchers farmer. Really? Yeah. It was unbelievable. I, I, my legs still hurt, but I felt a lot better in my heart. Last month, I was at the Trump inauguration.

Are you sure you want to tell this one? Yeah, it's fine. Yeah, it's fine. No, it'll, it ends up fine. Okay. And it was cold and it was a long day, but I got distracted over on the side of the lawn where we're at, there was a magician performing.

You know I love magic. You've always said that. Yep. Yeah. And he was doing simple stuff, you know, rings, you know, wands, playing cards, up close magic. And then he said, you wanna see me disappear? I said, yeah, let's see it. Before my eyes, he lifted his cape,

he disappeared in front of me. There's a little tap on my shoulder behind me. I said, who goes there? He said, I'm a good ranchers farmer. What? Wow. Isn't that crazy? I mean, yeah, I don't know if I, I don't know how you can top it, but I do have one more. I, this is the one you texted me about. Yeah, I don't like, I'm kind of embarrassed.

I don't talk about it a lot. It was before I met Catherine. It was before I met Catherine. All right, so just know that going in. It was before I met Catherine. I was not married. I was a single man, but I had an addiction. Addiction to the pipe.

Sorry. The windpipe. I was a surfer. Out in Kauai. People say Maui is the best for surfing. Not in January. They haven't seen the pipes I've seen. I'll be honest, the moment got too big for me. I saw a wave that I couldn't pass up. People were yelling, don't do it, don't do it.

You're not very good at surfing. You're not that good. Yeah, they were. They kept mentioning the top heavy thing, right? Get out. You're top heavy. Remember what's going to happen to you in 30 years when you skin your knees really bad.

I was five years old when I did this. Yeah, it was definitely before Catherine. Man, I wiped out. I saw the bottom. I saw the out. I saw the bottom. I saw the coral. I saw the reef. I saw Ariel down there, honestly. I mean, maybe it was a figment of my imagination.

But when I came up, I thought I was just being come up by buoyancy, top heavy. No. Turns out I was being lifted out by a man in full flannel chaps and some just beautiful Cavender boots. And this is off the coast of Kauai above the reef. Dude, I know it sounds crazy. That's why I don't like talking about it.

Like you're so weird. This is what happened, man. And this guy pulled me on the shore, dude, they're one of the most sad things. And then he said, Hey, don't worry about paying me back today, but just know someday, you're going to want to think a farmer. Think a good ranchers farmer. Couldn't talk at the time. It was only five. I said, I just nodded my head and I remembered that for the rest of my days. So now you've been given the opportunity

The range.com thanks Okay Thanks. Goodranger.com. Thanks. Cherokees. American Mediolar. I have a secondary quiz for you. This is not about anything you've ever learned before. This is just fun. Okay. Last week, you were encouraging time and talking to time about egg and a hole in that form of breakfast.

Yes. I don't know if you guys saw on our Facebook page. There was some names. But I've never seen anything like it. There are an unbelievable amount of names for this breakfast food. I just couldn't believe it. So I just started writing all of them down. Okay.

So what we're going to do, I'm guessing you guys don't have them memorized necessarily. I don't even think I saw this post. There were like, it was on two different places. Yeah. Okay. Of like, Oh, we called it this, we called it this. And there are so many names. So I'm going to give you guys three names. Two of them are fake.

And one of them comes from the Ghost Runners community. Like one of our fans, this is what they call that breakfast. Okay. Where you put an egg in a toast. Okay. Okay. So here are your options. Eggs in a nest. Egg canoe or toast with a view? My instinct is that eggs in a nest. Eggs in a nest? Is that what it was? Eggs in a nest. That's my

guess. Okay. The real one. Mine as well. That is correct. Started you off easy. Magna Carta. Did you? Oh, I don't have that. Okay. I don't have that. You know who you are. You guys know. All right. Next we've got egg harbor. Holy breakfast or dippy eggs. One of those is real. Egg Harbor, holy breakfast or dippy eggs. Dippy eggs is a funny sounding two words. I'm guessing holy breakfast. I'm going to guess dippy eggs. I think I think I've heard of that before. If it's not that then people make those somewhere.

Correct answer is dippy eggs. Yeah. That sounds like your two year old made that up. And dipy eggs. Oh, dipy eggs. Okay, sure. Snow. All right.

Next is egg in a pocket, one-eyed Egyptian or egg in a cove. I hope it's one-eyed Egyptian That's my guess is one-eyed Egyptian Finally answer it. What was the first of this round? egg in a pocket egg in a pocket I'm gonna also go one-eyed Egyptian man you guys are good. Yeah Very impressive. All right, let's try again.

Let's go, uh, um, look at these. All right. Egg canoe. Is this? Nevermind, go ahead. Man on a raft or egg and a hug? Egg and a hug? Egg in a hug.

I like egg canoe. But then again, I feel like you mentioned that before as a, I don't know. I'll say egg canoe. A lot of like nautical names. Yeah. Egg Harbor. Egg. What was the third one? Something bug? Egg and a hug. Nautical name. Yeah. Egg Harbor egg

What was the third one something big and a hug egg and a hug I like I like a man Man, I can the one the middle man on a raft man on a raft. That's correct. Okay, my goodness You guys are nailing this. All right. We'll just do a few more All right runny'll just do a few more. All right, Runny Ring, Bulls Eyes, or Egg in a Cradle? Runny Ring, Bulls Eyes, or Egg in a Cradle? Bulls Eyes feels really right to me. That's what I'm going to say. Me too. Gosh, you guys got it again. There's no way people listening are getting this many right.

You don't think? You guys are incredible. It's just like that one makes sense. The other ones kind of make sense. All right, here we go. Popeye eggs. Nest toast. Or egg puddle.

Toast toast or egg puddle. Oh Brad yeah, I'm going Popeye eggs um What was the last one egg puddle egg puddle just cuz I like that one on my side bottle Yeah, it was Popeye eggs Wow, man not good with dates right good with eggs. I haven't missed one yet Wow marketing major, you know, I know how to name things. Wow. Man. Not good with dates, but good with eggs. I haven't missed one yet. Wow. Marketing major, you know, I know how to name things. Yeah. Yeah.

There's not really any left. Those were, I already did the hard ones. Oh really? Dippy eggs, bull's eyes? Dippy eggs I've heard somebody say before. Like, oh yeah, we should make dippy eggs. So maybe that's why that one was familiar to me. All right.

I'll just say the rest of them that Ghosty's provided. So there's egg in a hole, egg in the hole, egg in a basket, totem holes, toad in the holes, and bread eggs. That's amazing that there's that many, along with the questions you already asked. That was probably 10 or more. That's why that there's that many, like along with the questions you already asked, like that was probably 10 or more. That's why I had to write them down.

I was like, I cannot believe, this is the most like nomenclature I've seen for anything, more than like, you know, fireflies or soda, or just these things like, oh yeah, depending on where you grew up with, you know, this is, this is all time. I wonder what else is up there. Yeah, maybe pop versus soda versus Coke versus.'s got to be something that like your grandma makes and like that has its own name. Yeah

It feels very family to family. What about like the The the things you buy unfrozen that are like syrup and like fruit stuff and then you freeze them. What do you call those? You know I'm talking about like actually no you buy them unfrozen and then you freeze them. What do you call those? You know I'm talking about like actually no you buy them unfrozen and then you freeze them Maybe you can buy them frozen, but like you put them in your freezer, and they're those sticks that have oh What they are called yeah, I mean like what do you pops ice pops? I think is what they're technically I don't think we call them ice pops though. I would call them iceys Ices yeah, I think we just called them popsicles. Yeah popsicle for me No, but popsicles you're talking about like not the ones on the sticks. I know I think we just just call

Like that like okay with a stick or yeah, like the plastic thing the package obstacle Yeah, yeah push pops that I don't know if anybody Yeah, I think push pops is also like a candy that you well I think I think of IC as like thecy, like a slurpee type thing. Which I've never called anything a slurpee, always slushy. I'm kind of, yeah, whatever you call it, like the term for Kleenex versus tissue, I call everything a slurpee, I think. Even though that's like a 7-Eleven brand.

Like I want a slurpee right now. I think with time I think it would go Icy. Really? Or slushy? I said slushy to Slurpee right now. I think in what time I don't think it would go icy. Really? Or slushy. I said slushy. Slushy is good. I don't know. Slushy sounds too grainy, too much grain in that ice.

Maybe. Slurpee is nice and smooth. So yeah, I don't know. That's another one. I think that might maybe it could be up there. Not like that. That's wild. There's just no official name for this thing.

Yeah, that's pretty cool. But like so many people are like, yeah, we do that. Yeah, we do that. Yeah, of course we do that. That's wild. There's just no official name for this thing. Yeah, but like so many people are like, yeah We do that. Yeah, we do that. Yeah, of course we do that. Yeah, you want your egg, you know Yeah, I don't know you want them dippy or on toads Man on a raft is maybe my favorite one. Yeah, man on a raft is really good and one-eyed Egyptian I can't have you guys got that one, right? We uh, what I did gypsum. This is probably similar to how these names started. I don't know. But like, I will play, like Catherine, no, sorry, Hattie and I are getting into more

and more games lately. Like, like the rest of the kids go to bed a little bit earlier and then I'm like, how do you want to play Tinsey? I just taught her, I don't know if you pronounce it Man-kay-la or Man-kala. I grew up a Man-kala guy. Man-kala? I love Man-kala. I would say Man-kala. You should come over and play

with her sometime. So I'll take her to school and back. Honestly though. Yeah. Yeah. You would, you would like think way too, like, I'm just like, I don't know. I'll just do this. What next? Like you'd be like, wow, that'd be the smartest thing. This was like a big gifted game for us. So it was like, oh yeah, we would all play it a ton and like fourth and fifth grade. So I got really good at it. So originally I taught her like, you know, there's the rule where if your marble lands on a whole game, baby. Oh, or yeah, the empty one you get to take from their side. You're going to take from the other side. Yeah.

Originally we just played where like, if yours ended up in the man, man, call a like slot, you would go again. And, but it wouldn't matter about the thing across from you, whatever. But then I was like, well, now that you learned how to play that way, I was like, we need to learn a new way. And I was like, let's think of an animal

that we can add this variation. And Hattie's like, oh, kind of like Tenzi versus Staxi. And so I was like, yeah, think of an animal. And Bo's like, how about Dogzi? And I was like, oh, kind of like Tinsey versus Staxie. And so I was like, yeah, think of an animal. And Beau's like, how about Dogsy? And I was like, no, that's weird. That's not what we're going for. I was like, and then Beau's like, parrot. And so if you play the real way of Mancala,

or whatever it is, you play parrot style is what we say. And so we just have these names for different things like that. In Tinsey, there's a way that you can play. I call it choose your own adventure where it's just like, you get to choose your own number that you're going for every time. Yeah. Choose your own adventure. Why not? So it's like Parrot style, Parrot style. So it, you know, someday had, he's going to come, you know, go to college and somebody's going to be playing Mancala and our dorm gifted, gifted dorm. And she's going to be like, Oh, you guys play a parent style or regular? They're like, what are you talking about? Home schooler? I don't know. We had dippy eggs.

So anyway, that's fine. I really have a hanker to play Moncala now. It's fun game. Yeah. It's simple. It's really amazing what I mean, Hattie seven, but it's amazing how much she can understand how to play a game. Like she's like strategized. It's not just like, don't they say it's like one of the first games or one of the oldest games? I think it's like I bet crazy old. It makes sense. Yeah. Just like rocks and piles. Time and look it up. Don't look it up, Jake. Let's let's try to guess. According to your first Google search, what they say

the original date was. Moncala originated in Africa. I'm going to give you the country of continent origin in South Africa, I'm going to give you the country of continent origin. Oops. In South Africa, maybe country. 800 BC. 800 BC. OK. So that would mean if I said 700 BC, it'd be later. I will say, just to not be too close to Jake, I'll go 450 BC. OK, it's not giving me possibly. Just give me the first Google.

Obviously, there's going to be 1400 BC. Hey, I'd be closer to you. All right. 1400 BC. That's an old game. One of the oldest known board games, it says. Well, checkers, checkers before after. Let's find out.

Look at checkers parrot style. Oh Checkers not as not as old wait no older 3000 BC Wow They were checkering a bunch of rocks Wow turns out if you play a game that looks like rocks you can play pretty pretty long Go Yeah, they were just like playing checkers and then there'd be like a dinosaur come by and like shake their board.

Stop, stop. Please quit. You're messing it up. Rex, seriously, you can play next dude. Yeah, we'll play Raptor style. Just chill, King me. King me dude, you don't know what that means yet. You guys ever play Othello?

That was another like gifted game back in the day. I've heard of that. Remind me what it is. Just looks almost like an Oreo looking thing. One side's white and one side's black. Okay. You just flip them over. Uh-uh. On like a grid. You guys ever do that one?

I remember never learning how to play it, but it was like on some tablet we had that like, I think some of my siblings might know how to play it. Must be nice. Wow, dude. iPad probably even even not just like Like a Kindle fire or something. I don't know it was on this worthless tablet. We had I didn't even paid any It was like it was like a iPad first generation. The thing was a dinosaur I've heard of Othello, but I don't know how to play that was a fun one

What else do you guys remember playing back in the day? Like early, your first games. Oh dude. I mean, Big Connect 4, guess who was a big one for us? Yeah. Same on both of those. Random one that no one's probably ever heard of called Tip the Cows. So much fun, dude. You would literally roll like the cows were the dice. And depending on how you roll them, that's how many points you got.

And I think, Tymon, will you look this up real quick if you don't mind? Like there's like different names for different like combinations of cows. them, that's how many points you got. And I think, Tymon, will you look this up real quick, if you don't mind? There's different names for different combinations of cows. But there's one combination where if you roll these cows, they're like, yeah, there's one that's like, you automatically win the game. Just one. Yeah.

Wait, did you ever pass the pigs or just tip the cows? I've never passed the pigs, but Bethke swears by pass the pigs. He's like, it's the easiest travel game. Cause all you gotta do is bring these two pigs with you and you can play pass the pigs anywhere. Yeah, I'm looking at now. It's not like an actual like dice

that looks like a cow or a pig. It's just like- No, they're just two cows. Yeah, they just land on all fours or they land upside down. Yeah, there's like, no, but sometimes they, no, they can land on their head. Oh, they can't. Oh, okay. There's like different names for like the, uh, I'm bad at Google and stuff. I'm seeing, is there one called cowlick? Yes.

That's one of the things that's what I'm, I, I like click on the link and I lose that spot in the article. All right. I I've seen some, so this is for, I like to look up tip this cow. This is for past the pigs, pigs but possible roles you can get a pig out cider Trotter razorback snouter left-leaning jowler making bacon piggyback or doubles doubles This sounds like when Joe dirt's talking about the fireworks. He wants do you remember that movie or see that? Oh my gosh It's so funny. He's like you don't have any you know whistling kitty chasers. Oh, yeah All right, here's more. Any bing bangs, something like that.

I feel like. Yeah, I found the cow ones now. Cider, udders up, hoover, grazer, holy cow, milk dud, cowlick, doubles, or sacred cows. Sacred cows. Instant win. Yeah, sacred cows. That's when you get two holy cows.

Which is, does it say what a holy cow is? Holy cow is seated on rear end. Seated on rear end, yeah. So that's like you're sitting upright. Hind parts, yeah. This is kind of fun though. You just memorize, this is like Mahjong really. You memorize kind of the patterns of like,

okay, you get back to back on all four feet. Oh, that's a hoover, 10 points. It's just like Mahjong. This is great, I'm in. It's fun, yeah. And like, yeah, there's a box that it comes in, but really you just need the cows. You just need a flat surface and a couple cows.

Grazer is if you get tripod with front feet and nose. This is a great game. It's fun man, it's great. So like that, Yahtzee was another one that we loved. Did you ever have like handheld yahtzee, like bathroom yahtzee? Catherine and I talked about that. My cousin did and it was so much fun, the handheld one.

Oh yeah, you go to your cousin's house, just to go to the bathroom. It's like, please me yeah, they had wife They had like a high-speed internet and they had yeah the handheld Yahtzee everybody had a cousin with high-speed internet Yeah, the full brights got DSL first. Yeah, no, it was unreal. It was like changing channels I was like mom and dad. It's like changing channels up there changing channels. That's so good It really was though. I mean John would call us into his like he's like you got to see this He's like name a website and we go to a lol.com and, John would call us into his like, he's like, you got to see this. He's like, name a website. And then we go to a lot of that common is load.

And we're always like, whoa, no way. Yeah, we load it. I remember loading like for a five second clip of the Miami heat one time before school. And I waited for 45 minutes for it to load. And finally, we watched it. It was like nothing. It's like, all right, Glenn Rice made a three pointer.

That's all we got. Yeah. You really had to be so patient. I love this game, though. Yeah. Tip the cows. Take you back. Hoover. Battleship. We were a big game every every Christmas. We got a new game, like a new family game. So we love games.

Sharpshooters ever heard of that one? I don't know. Sharpshooters. That's another one. That's like a classic. Like that's probably why I like gambling to this day It's because of this game like you could keep going or you could like stop you would like bank. You would love it Uh sorta sharpshooters take a risk give it a roll. Hey Rachel's home. Hey Rachel. No school these days Just in general just in general Everybody's sick or snowed in or, I think maybe conferences today actually.

I don't know what to do. I feel like I've already wasted a day. It's already over basically. You feel that way? Yes. I think we talked about this one time because you're like, it's a sign of ADHD. I was like, crap, maybe, I don't know. But like, yeah, if I like the hours from like either eight to nine or nine to 10 every day are like very important to me. If I don't do something well during those times, I'm, I'm sunk. That's, that's how you

feel. Yesterday was for my sixth day. Really? Yeah. But actually I was productive yesterday. Okay. It was a great day. You, you bounce back. Yeah. Okay. That's back. Today's been a good day. That's good. I saw just because we have you both here now. I know that Jake didn't have a shovel, um, use the dust pan. I saw that you bought a shovel, but it looked more like a manure shovel. Not really a classic snow shovel. Did we buy one? Yes. I bought one last snowstorm to shovel the driveway. Big old shovel. Uh, ace only had one left. Okay. And, uh, so I bought that one. It's metal though. It's huge. Yeah. Aluminum something. Okay. He really

sold me on it. It was the only shovel there. I was going to buy it what he really was like feel this you're gonna you're gonna love that for a long time Yeah, I don't know if it's just be heavier light. He was I feel the way to this I was like, oh And he's like see what I mean and he's like not too heavy I was like not heavy. Yes, not too heavy Yeah, yeah, he's cuz aluminum aluminum. Yeah. Okay great So compared to that super heavy plastic that they Chuck around these days Yeah, it's not stainless steel not a what's that like? What's it the? Cast iron cast iron shovel put in the dishwasher. Yeah

Yeah, so the ace hardware guys actually just really anti plastics. Yeah Really crunchy very crunchy so yeah, we have a shovel and Zach time and friend text me a few days ago. It said I want to come to your comedy show, but I'm broke And oh, what happened that hundred dollars I gave you Or no, then he also said do you need me to film it and I said no I don't need you to film it, but it's supposed to snow in a few days and come shovel my driveway if you go So maybe he'll be by later today. I don't know. Okay, it's coming to the comedy show. I mean, we'll see I also just try to fill it up. So I'm like you just come and bring some friends. Just just be there

Yeah, just be loud. Yeah, so I think I'm just having come for free. That's fun. So How was Pilates, Rachel? It was great. Actually, it was actually tiring this time. So it was good. Actually, like Rachel, like a D1. It's like, no, you were finally, they pushed me. Yeah. The it's been intro classes. So, okay. Me and some six year old ladies have been in there. Okay. This one was an intro. And it is so cold in a place. It's not heated. Like a, a heated, like power life studio. Oh, I see. Like, it got like 95 degrees in there. Yes, really. It's hard to think that you're working hard, but it was great Good

What I have oh I had a question about since since we have Rachel. I'm trying to think of like Rachel Centered things we can talk about with both you volleyball last night Cancelled. Oh really? Yes. Not because of the snow, the other team forfeited. Maybe because of the snow. Yeah, maybe the other team was like, we don't want to get out in the snow. Tito Unruh said he was joking that they heard about us beating a team three on six.

And he's like, I think they just got scared. Probably didn't want to play his full strength. Dang, that's a bummer. Yeah. So we tried to reschedule with a team though that was competitive, but they said nobody wanted to think Sorry. Hey, it's fine. Yeah, no volleyball and no games next week. Yeah, because it's It's no it's gonna stick around. Yeah There's no games next just a graduation. Yeah, they do some random no game weeks, huh? Yeah, maybe some UCA cheer competition or something going on. Yeah, probably a little volleyball break. Yeah

was it true that you really did like Go as hard as you could Really? No, even that even like Jake senior like no serving I know you took the governor off last year last year when we played four on six for the championship That was like actually trying. Okay, I think I was so sweaty I couldn't really even say it. Yeah, that was me working so hard. I forgot Rachel was even there that day. Yeah. It was boiling.

That was the boiling time. That was the day. That was the day. I mean, my serves were just floating quite a bit, but it didn't matter because they were passing them perfectly. You were just jumping. I hadn't seen the... Oh, I mean, the jump is like this high off the ground.

On a float jump serve, girls will will know It's not barely a jump What is a float jump serve? So what you're imagining with the jump serve is probably like the girl tosses it with one hand Yeah, does it put an approach to it and jump as high as you can and like spikes it. Yes That's a top spin jump serve a float jump serve is kind of like you're holding it in one hand And you just kind of just scooting up to the line and then you just Jump a little bit and hit it. So you're not running Baseball players out there listening. How would you compare it to a baseball term? You know baseball terms, right a knuckleball. Oh

Really? Yes. Ding-ding-ding. That's a float is the same thing as a knuckleball. Yeah Mm-hmm. Ooh, it sucks For sure like people the highest level of maybe not men's volleyball, but I mean even like division one. Men's. Yeah, I mean like they're doing like float serve. So what's the strategy on how to hit it? Like what do you do with your hand? Your hand has to be pretty strong and you don't want it to, your wrist to snap either way. You just kind of want to hit it with this, the palm of your hand. Not the bottom,

but like this part where you clap, I would say, and then you just keep it straight and point to where you want it to go and it should not have spin. Do they do that in beach volleyball with two on two? Yeah, in the wind? Miserable. I mean, that'd be unreal.

Does it ever just like go way out? Oh my gosh, yes. Sometimes, it's always when just make it in. When you're thinking just make it in. You're thinking just make it in. It somehow catches a breeze or something and it just goes up and so far out. Probably the worst miss is our float serves because sometimes the air just takes it so far. That's how knuckleballs are. Like every once in a while it's just like that was not even close. It's like that wasn't in their control. That just hit the guy. Give him a

break. Wow. Okay. Yep. Fun. But I mean really you're jumping that far off the ground. Okay, I could do it then We can work on that this spring. All right. Yeah, we'll work on it. That's fun Thanks Rachel I'm hungry Yeah, I would love to hear more about your childhood game. Good times. Yikes. That was great.

Brad, look at my sweatshirt. What does it say right here? Right where your hand is? Oh, sorry, the words. Above it, cozy earth. Cozy earth. And now Brad, look at my pants. What do they say?

Where am I looking? It's implied that they're also cozy earth sweatpants. Well, you said what do they say? What do they say? Where am I looking? It's implied that they're also cozy earth sweatpants. Well, you said, what do they say? What do they imply? What are your cozy and comfortable? I'd also like to know what do they say? What do they say to you? They say you've been working out, brother.

Yeah. Some things make other things look bigger. Some, what they want us to say is that it's cozy. It's cozy. It's cozy, baby. Yeah, I really am. I'm decked down in it all winter long. And kind of all year long because of the bedsheets. Yes.

There was a time last week, true story, where Rachel is just a monster in her sleep. And just woke up one day, it just didn't have sheets on the bed. Didn't really notice it, I guess. But then that night going to bed, just like we don't have, like the top sheet is just gone. It's like, who knows where Rachel put it.

Worst night of sleep I've gotten in 35 years. Wow, that bad. Think about that. I'm only 33 years old. I was gonna say, you had, I mean, it's that bad though. You know that no matter how bad of sleep you have in the next couple of years, it's not gonna be as bad as that.

It won't be as bad as that. And that's because from now on, you've made a rule with yourself. You travel, you sleep every single night with Cozier's Sheets. Yeah, I made a rule with myself and I also made kind of a decree, kind of a proclamation with Rachel.

I said, if you don't put the top sheet on I'm out Wow I'm out of this bed. Yeah, I'm out of this marriage for you good for you That's what I said you said you told her stood if your top sheets off then my top sheets my whole sheets off Yeah, yeah, it's all off Yeah, cuz you're yeah, they have the best bamboo sheets. They have the best Everything I mean I last night slept in bamboo sheets with my Cozy Earth sweatpants and my Cozy Earth like waffle knit. You know, the waffle

knit one? Yeah. Yeah. So nice, dude. They're all so nice. And the sheets are regular, like, yeah, cooled, regulated all year round. So in the winter, I've never been cold in the sheets in the summer. I've never been hot in the sheets. It's really a wild phenomenon. It's pleasant, but it's worth the investment is worth checking out So go to cozy earth comm slash Ghost Runners today use promo code gRKC And yeah, you get a stout discount.

I don't know. Tyman, you go to all these voice lessons. Yeah. What do you learn in there? And how come you aren't telling us? Sorry, I should be passing it on to you guys.

Yeah, what do you say to the people who say you're gatekeeping voice lessons for me and Brad? Where do you say those people? I say there's a reason they cost money. Oh I'm gonna give them out for free cost money. Oh That was good well done No, I don't know. I think right now My teacher dr. Smith is like kind of encouraging me like you should audition for like local shows and stuff Oh like and and for me, it's like I'm conflicted about like I enjoy acting But in the past I've done it probably 70% for the friends and the people there

So it's like if I'm just auditioning for a random show. I lose that like with like random adults and right It's like that's not quite as fun. I still make friends and stuff. But Yeah, but right now we're just like learning kind of just classic musical theater songs and like just kind of having like a repertoire of stuff I could like audition with. So yeah. What is the, like the theater, the acting scene like in Kansas City? Like what's the highest level of local theater here? I'm not sure. I like, I haven't done much research into it. I'm a theater in the park is a big one, but I think that's mostly young people or no. They didn't park is like, they do full all ages shows. Yeah. But I feel like majority, but yeah, I think

majority is young people. That's probably like, that's like, that's definitely what people talk about as like, Oh, I want to do theater in the park. That'd be a fun thing. I think it's maybe one of the most more well-known and more like fun opportunities. You've been there. No, it was great. Yeah, dude. That's like we grew up going and it's so fun. Yeah. Yeah. It's so good. But other than that, I don't know if there's like, I mean, they do operas occasionally like the Kaufman, but that's like, wait, that's not less like theater and more just like, that's just like a whole other realm. But I don't know what the main. There's not really a Venn diagram, like opera singers and I don't know. I'm not sure. I wonder if I, it feels like there's

such a specific tone of voice and like style of acting. It's like, I could try it, but it'd be kind of interesting. You could try it right now? I don't know. La la la la la la. Yeah, opera singers are, it feels like, I can appreciate a lot of art. I don't know if I want to ever go to the opera.

Yeah. Just like, like after you listen to like opera music for two minutes and that's generous. I'm ready to be done. You know, like I've, yeah. I've seen two operas before we went, when we were in culture house choir they were like, um, you can get $5 tickets to just the dress rehearsal, which the exact same thing as the actual show, but just like five bucks instead of a hundred bucks. And so, um, like, but I remembered one, I specifically really enjoyed it was in Italian, but there were like captions on the back of the seats. And it was like funny.

It was like a comedy. It was like, Oh great. What do you mean? Yeah. Like there's little tiny screens at the Kauffman center. Like, uh, and it just as there it's like all timed so well as they're like singing it or saying it, it's giving the English translation. That's crazy. Where do you, how much are you looking at the stage? Are you just looking down the whole time? I think it's kind of like when you watch a movie with captions first five minutes, it's like, ah, what am I going to like focus? But at some point you just, you're watching both and you're not really thinking about it. I feel like, but it's been a long time since I was probably like focus on? At some point you're watching both and you're not really thinking about it, I feel like.

That's so interesting. But it's been a long time since I was probably like 11. Okay. But yeah. Reading that fast at 11 must be nice. What would you rather go see? Both of you. One hour of opera or two hours of ballet.

Oh. This is at the highest level. So these people are talented. Two hours. But that is the art form. of opera or two hours of ballet. Oh. This is at the highest level. So these people are talented. Two hours. But that is the art form. I think, because I think Hattie and Catherine went to the Nutcracker this past year ballet.

Hattie loved it. Okay. And if Hattie can love it, I can love it. So. Yeah, I think it depends on if it's like, ballet just means simply like these, oh, here's a four minute dance. Here's a different, and they don't mean anything, but like Nutcracker I've been to and like,

I liked it a lot because it's like, Oh, there's a story here. It's like really impressive looking. I don't know, but I think maybe opera. It just feels like opera. They're just trying so hard the entire time. It just kind of hurts my ears eventually. That's fair. You know, it's also been a long time. Yeah. Like those scene. When I think of operatic women singers, they're singing so high, like, you know, like the glass shatter,

like the glass shattering when they sing, kind of like, that's what I think. And maybe I'm wrong. Maybe it's not always like that, but it just in my head versus like a ballet, there could be some nice music at least like Like the Nutcracker music I love. Yeah. I don't know if I would love just watching something that has no words. Yeah, I feel like if I did an opera, it's like I would have to just make my voice sound

way less nice to listen. I feel like I would just be like, I'm not going to like to hear my voice. I feel like if I'm like trying to imitate the classic operatic style, just not like a super pleasing thing to listen to. I don't know if I'll have like, I think sometimes with me, like a lot of times with music in productions in general, you can get like an emotional response to watching or, you know,

attending something. I don't, I can't foresee myself in either one having an emotional response. I think I would just be like, that's fair. Like I think emotional to the extent of like, yeah, I enjoyed that fine. But like, I don't think I would be like, Oh my gosh, that was beautiful. Yeah. It's like, that was, they didn't say anything, you know? I don't know. But I could be, I could be completely wrong about all that.

What about you, Jake? I love all fine arts equally. Yeah, you do. Yeah. So, I mean, I would just take probably two hours of Alex I get more yeah, I get more fine for your buck more enjoyment Yeah, five dollars though. I'd have a hard time passing it up. I don't care what it is

If I get 95% off, I'm going yeah 95% off I'll do it any dress rehearsal of anything. Yeah so That's fun. That's fun. There was this one time when I was probably like nine, I was in the culture house choir and the instructor asked like my parents, like if I would want to be in this show that was like going on, it was like apparently this like a small like few lines role, but it's like a young boy that could sing high. Okay. And like I just remember it was like, but it's like a young boy that could sing high. And like,

I just remember it was like, I think there was a bunch of like inappropriate stuff in the show, but it's like, he'd be like shielded from that or whatever. I think we ended up not doing it. But it was like, it was kind of like a, my first like, Oh, I could have like, I wonder what would have happened if it was like, I was in this show and I was nine. I wonder if I'd be doing way more theater now. Like if I'd randomly like, Oh, then I did this other thing. I don't know. Right. Then you didn't think about it. Then they have your mom. Like if I'd randomly like, oh, then I did this other thing. I don't know. Right. Then you didn't think about it. Then they have your mom's contact number and they're like, all right,

let's call them again. We need this kid for this thing. We've got this other inappropriate role. There'll be a time when it'd be great for it. Yeah. Simon down here. What was the show? I can't remember.

It was I had never heard of it. It's like a weird. Not another teen drama. Yeah. Another teen play. Um, I do wonder about like you're watching an R rated movie and there's a kid in it. It's like, what does this kid go to the premiere? Yeah.

You know, like, does this kid watch this movie or is it like, you were in that, but we don't, we don't consume that movie. My first time ever going to the cheesecake factory. I sat next to a child actor. I should have asked him these questions I did I didn't take my opportunity. Yeah, Luke. I remember this. Yeah Rossler something is his name. He was in a dead to me Which is show. Yeah show I forget their names now, but Chelsea no no Applegate yeah, and then that brunette lady. I think Will Ferrell like executive produced that or something.

Anyway, he was in that and he's been in a couple other like scary movies since then, but he's like gotten some decent roles. But yeah, sat next to him at a Los Angeles cheesecake factory back in the day and did not take advantage. Talk to him. It was just him and his mom. At the time they didn't live in LA. No, we didn't know him at all. They were just, they see us close to each other. Okay. Hey, how's it going guys? Good. I'm a child actor. Oh good. I'm an adult nice, dude. Yeah So that's fun Yeah, I wonder because I feel like a child actor a lot of times they have they're like way more mature Than like I feel like if you're gonna be a really good child actor You just have like this kind of a sense of like true stuff going on

So I feel like and if you're in a scary movie, you're going to like understand how it like, how it like was made. I feel like it's way less scary. I was scared. Yeah. I don't know. Yeah. I don't think it's that it's not nearly as scary being on set.

Like the lighting is not anything close to like what you're seeing in the movie. And you know, you're joking around with the guy. I don't think it's scary on set, but I wonder if as a kid, you still watch that thing. I bet it's still scary probably so yeah, probably and especially if it's like a part you're not in cuz yeah Yeah, I don't know be interesting. I wonder how many what's the percentage of like? Kids that watch their own bad movie. I don't know I always feel bad for kids who like Clearly are in a role to in the role is like the chubby girl who gets picked on Like what was the casting

call like for that? Not only the people who got the role, but people who didn't get the role like, geez, I can't even get the role of chubby girl who gets picked on. Yeah. You heard about on Home Alone, like buzz your girlfriend. Like that is a boy. That the director, whoever felt so bad about that. I recently, speaking of watching things with kids and being like, it's not real, you know, whatever, I recently introduced the Bow and Hattie to the Scott Sterling video, the YouTube.

Oh, yeah. Have you seen that? Yeah. And I was like, it's really funny because it's not real. I wonder if they thought it was real, if it would be as funny to them, or if how do you would just feel bad for this guy? Or like, I don't play soccer anymore. Right. This guy just kids hidden, hidden the face every time. So, uh, but had he loved it, thought it was so funny. And then we watched a bunch of sports

bloopers from the nineties sports bloopers from the nineties. Yeah. Cause it's like an outfielder getting hit in the head. Are you, well, you don't have kids, but like I am, I am so much less worried about like things like that from the nineties than I am from like, if I looked up 2025 sports bloopers, I just don't know. Who knows it'd be what's some only fans girl, eating a hot dog in the stands. Like how'd that make it on here? Yeah. Well, you know, whatever it is. I don't know, like some commentary of something or whatever. I'm just like, I don't, I know know that back in the day Chris Berman was saying nice things on ESPN Yeah, it's all good. So we watched a bunch of old stuff and they appreciate some of the things they loved it when The sports players would like jump into the stands. They thought that was really funny

Oh like in baseball baseball basketball saving a you know whatever when the football player like runs out onto the sideline and hits over the Gatorade like table with all the cups on it. That is good. You know, they just thought that was great. Or when they like run into a mascot or a referee or something. That's pretty cute.

So they're just like, can we watch more like mascot? Yeah. They had never heard the word bloopers before. They didn't know what that was. Wow. So teaching them. Yeah, you should show them like, I love Lucy bloopers before. They didn't know what that was. Wow. So teaching them. Yeah, you should show them like,

I love Lucy bloopers or something. Ooh, that'd be fun. Rock their world. Yeah, that's a good idea. Rosie is, out of all our kids, she's definitely the most like screen, we gotta be careful with her, because I think she's already on the brink

of like being a little upset. Like always, always asking for Lucy. Lucy, show? Show? Like, no, can't do it. Yeah So how are you guys doing with your with your shred? Shred oh you freaking tell me no. Oh, yeah, I will say you walked in today and I said that sweatshirt It's looking a little baggy on ya little boxy white baggie. Um

Dude, I still have this issue with my elbow that I talked about last week. I don't know what's going I've been looking it up. It looks like it's maybe it's tendonitis. That doesn't sound good And so because of that, I'm not exercising. I'm walking on the treadmill doing a little I'm still sweating but uh, Not not doing much else besides that. So it's kind of been resting which is really hard So yeah, cuz if your arm hurts, there's not even that many leg exercises you can do. Like if you, you know, if it hurts to hold like a dumbbell or to pull up a barbell. Yeah. And it's like really weird. Like I can move it around like this fine, but like, it's like weird, like right here, it's really tight or like, like

if I could be pronating, is that what that's called? Sure. Maybe like this way it's okay. But this way I feel the tightness and like, and so it's weird. So every once in a while, like today, I was drinking my main roasters coffee and I had a hard time like gripping it and like bring it up to my, like it just like almost gets numb for a second week. Yeah. And so weird. And so, and it's hard to rest it because everything you do as a dad with your kids, like picking up Henry, I, I'm not that strong, Jake. I can't just like main handle them with one hand. So I have to like prop them up, but like not bend my arm.

And so I feel like it's just taking, and then I have all these, it feels like every single day is like, okay, what body part is Brad is sore on Brad today. So I have like multiple cuts on my fingers right now. So haven't been, haven't been shredding. So what's the, what's the prognosis for elbow tendonitis? What do you do? It's breast and ice, like nothing really too extreme. So it's just like, it should go away. And so I'm hoping it does. And it has, it's gotten a little bit better, but it's still

just like really sore. It's hard to rest. Saying injuries are so annoying. I don't care what they are, where they're out of your body, how old you are. They're so annoying. That's what I'm saying. Like splinters are amazing. It's amazing how much a splinter is affecting like the way I can't, I can't open up a can the same way. I have to use my left like my middle finger to open up a LaCroix.

So yeah, how are you guys doing with the dumb timing? I haven't missed a gym like I my gym schedule I've been great haven't eat it haven't ate eaten eaten quite as much this week as like I as I want to so I think I need to get back back up on the It's just that's the part that like doesn't it's just hard when I'm not naturally hungry. Oh, it's like I don't Yeah, I don't know, But I'm still like medicated. Like whatever the opposite of ozempic is. Yeah.

And like just make you hungry constantly. Honestly. What is that? What like it's like an enzyme that gets released to make you hungry. Could you like create that? I don't know how it works. Sure. There is some I don't know.

Scientifically like. Get like a stomach enlarger. Yeah, I don't know. I mean, there's I know there's definitely foods that are like less satiating, less like good word. Like, so you don't feel as feel like what foods, Oh, just bad food for you basically. Like French fries. Yeah. Like McDonald's, I think you would eat it. And then you eat 700 calories and you're not that full. Whereas like you could eat 700 calories of, you know, grilled chicken and you feel very full, you know? So, um, maybe just eat crap more often. I don't know. I don't feel bad for you at all. Like, I don't know, man. I'm just trying to eat more. It's

just hard to eat. I'm like, yeah, I had trouble getting the second chocolate milkshake down. Yeah, dude. Have ice cream ice cream, have milkshakes. I don't know probably bad bad advice for somebody. Let's try to be healthier But I don't know. Yeah, it's like maybe I should just because I like I'll think I should eat But like what I have at my disposal isn't like great foods. I'm like should I still eat that? I don't know right. I don't even know what the right answer. I should just try bulking a little dirtier like Dirty what happens? I don't know. Yeah, I have, I genuinely have no advice for you because I've never had to think about that. So I don't know.

I'm sure there's like right way to do it, but. Yeah, you'll have ghosties reach out and there's always Chad GPT. It's true. Always there for you. Cheese, just have a lot of cheese. Cheese is good. Yeah.

I don't know. Scott just discovered ChatGBT. I think he discovered it a few months ago and then like rediscovered it this week and he just can't believe it. What's he doing on there? Anything. Yeah.

He just, he just said something like, he's texting our whole Friday Pickleball group chat, like so all six of us, you guys. Guys, ChatGBT is nuts. I cannot believe how smart it is. You know, we're like, yeah, yeah, yeah. And you know, he's like, is there a way for it to like remember something I said to it before?

We're like, yeah, it does that. Then he asked some other question and I responded like, Scott is one step away from like us having to sign him up for those classes at public libraries where they teach boomers how to work iPads. So you unlock it, you can do it with your face or sometimes it's your thumb

or just remember four digit code. Does everyone remember the passcode we did two weeks ago? A simple one is your birthday. Yes, you got it, yes. Take it out of your purse, you've got it written down. That's great. That's a great way to remember. Yeah, bring out your notepad, that's good.

Yes, that's good. Oh no, that's not your notepad, that's a handker, that's good. Yeah, exactly. Oh, no, that's not your notepad. That's a handkerchief. Oh, you need the handkerchief. No, that's great. You have a runny nose. OK, it's that time of year. No problem.

OK. Yeah, so put your handkerchief away when you're done. Don't forget it. Yeah, good. Good. Yeah. How often do you guys use ChatGPT? Six days a week, probably.

Really? Yeah. I might be a little less than that, but like four or five days, I'll use it at some point for something. Are you? Yeah. I never use it. Like probably I've used it for sure, but like, I don't remember the last time I used it.

Do you use it? Is there an app? I know that sounds so Scott. You sound like me with PayPal back in the day. Yeah. Because there didn't used to be an app when it came out, correct? Probably. I don't know. I don't think there was an app when I first discovered it But is there an app now there is okay, and you use the app on your phone or is it more on your computer? Your yeah, they're they're synced. So it's convenient. Sure

but yeah, it also depends on your job, I think if I Was woodworking I would probably have less need for Chad GPT. Maybe so. Yeah, I just, do you use it like Google? Or do you use it more like creatively? No, yeah, just like, not a ton for Google. Just, yeah, sparking ideas or coming up with, there's just so much, you know, we're like naming paddles.

You know, just like, just give me like a bunch of bad ideas really, and I'll choose two good ones from there. And then it's like, got it, that's close enough, yeah, we can like naming paddles, you know, just like just give me like a bunch of bad ideas really and I'll choose two good ones from there And then it's like got it. That's close enough. Yeah, we can then change it up. Yeah. Yeah. Yep I think I might use it more for just like what would have things that would have been a little more difficult to Google Just like getting a more detailed explanation of stuff Maybe yeah, really like in addition to generating some like creative stuff, but I don't do as much of that as you do So like I think I'm more so like, yeah, what is this money thing? Like how does this work? And it gives me more. I don't know. I feel like I'm what kind of money things you

Googling. Yeah. Let's see. Let's hear what we got on our chat. I'm curious where you guys are searching. What is this money thing? I'll look up what I last had on chat. This last, okay. Here's a rant. I was like, how much does average American adult having their on chat GBT This last okay Here's a rant I was like how much these average American adult having their savings account Just was randomly curious and then I was looking up how much does Gas cost to drive 37 miles in Kansas right now. All right, just random. Just I don't know Just like I could Google that and get there. But you're like this like give me more more breakdown Yeah, yeah Oh, I used it for that definition game, um back a couple or in january when I was like

What is a ochre? What is a macadam all those different things? I use it for that Um I'm going through my history. I trey was in hawaii I use it for that. I'm going through my history. I, Trey was in Hawaii the last few weeks. So he texted me something that was like late at night for me but kind of normal hour for him. So when I woke up, I saw this text.

Well, it had several typos in it, but I knew he wasn't gonna be awake for like four hours. So I used chat GPT. I was like, here's the text. What do you think he meant? Oh, and it did a really good job I hadn't thought of that and it was like a hundred percent got it right. Oh, wow. Okay. Good job So yeah, that was a cool way of utilizing it

Looks like most of the times I've used there for podcast jingles like when we've just like spontaneously tried to get one. Yeah Also, oh this is another jingle. I was like, I don't know what teen and grown man means, but. Sounds like our podcast. Yeah. Mine is mainly work stuff. There's some, you know, I get you to see just, it's basically the podcast updates I give.

You know, talking to Chad Gpt about floodplains, seeing how serious those are. Talk about that last week. Talking about tariffs, creative ways to get around your cost of goods going up 10%. We're talking probiotics, ashwagandha, southwest points value. That information was weirdly tricky to find online. It's like Chad Gpt, you know, so just stuff like that. It's all boring, but whatever.

Anyway, what were we talking about? What's going on? Were we podcast? I think we were podcasting. We were podcasting. Rachel said that thing that we have to bleep out and that was it pretty much. Yeah. Oh boy. Am I tired? Oh, what's going on? Boy, do I just not have anything fulfilling and happy that I get to consume in my life. Boy, do I not recognize quality beans when I see him. Oh no. Nuuut! Were you doing a psych joke?

Even though this is still work, it's fun. It's like, we're just talking. We're just laughing. We're just goofing. This has been my first experience ever trying to sell my own tickets, not being the opener. Don't like it. Don't like own tickets, not being the opener. Don't like it. Don't like the stress, not even the really stress, but just the looming worry of how many have we sold

and are people gonna show up? And I just really don't enjoy it. Do you have a pulse on that? Like, do you know how many you've sold? As of yesterday, it was like 30. Okay. So, but I'm trying it. So this was also, it just adds more work. So you know, Monday at dawns on me I was like, wait, why am I not running like Facebook ads to try and like promote this more? So then I'm texting people I know who do it shout out Sam Henniger really came in the clutch. I was like, how quickly can you whip up? Can we like work together on this? So he's like, I can run the campaign for you, do you wanna make the ad?

So you'll probably see in Canva, I'm just making my own Facebook ads. I don't know what, I'm not a graphic designer at all. I mean, I outsource, you do the merch, Timer does my thumbnail. I try to run in my strings, outsource my weaknesses, and so I'm like, under pressure, the faster we get these ads up,

the quicker the ads can run, and so I'm just very under pressure, like the faster we get these ads up, the quicker the ads can run. And so I'm just very quickly trying to like create my own Facebook ads for my comedy show. I have no idea what I'm doing. Who did the graphic for the promo? Chicken pickle. I was gonna say that was good. Time to text me about that too.

It's like, dude, that graphic is sick. Yeah. So anyway, just, yeah, trying to get a Facebook ad campaign set up and then trying to just whatever. A lot of work. But shout out to Sam Henniger. And shout out Nick Hagman, one of our other friends here in Kansas City.

He runs a newspaper, Casey Daly. And he ran like a little thing on it. Like a newsletter. What did I say? Paper. He throws a paper on my porch every morning. Yeah, he's up with his paper out in the snow. I don't care.

Ding ding ding ding. Jake! Jake! Snow! Newspaper! I can't even throw. You see that? Like my arm? Here you go. You're me me half way.

That's Nick. We call him Nemo. He's got, you know, one kind of gimp arm. One struggling arm. Did he promote you on there? Yeah, he did like a little thing on there. Casey Daly newsletter. Yeah, it's a letter.

He writes E E letter E news. E news. Yeah, so it's nice to have friends help help out. So we'll see as it hasn't happened yet. We're recording this. It's tomorrow night Valentine's Day. So we shall see. That's a tough one to,

cause you're competing with every restaurant in town. Pretty much. It's not like a normal Saturday or Friday night. Like it's like, well, a lot of people have plans already because it's Valentine's Day. Yeah. I really, maybe that's it. I really did not want to do this on Valentine's Day and then trying to sell tickets for the first time.

Yeah. But either way, it'll be fun. I have a private gig in like two weeks, so if nothing else, this is a good rep before I go out and perform. Where's the private gig? It's in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. Oh yeah, same place you did a while back?

Yeah, I performed there just last summer, I think. Yeah. And so yeah, this is like a date night comedy thing for some church up there, and it's two nights, and they're both sold out, I think 750 people each night. That's awesome. It's gonna be a great, as far as private gigs though, that's gonna be about as good as it goes and a church crowd. That's gonna be awesome. So I am glad that have like a kind of a practice session and so, but I'm sure there'll be ghosties there

tomorrow night. Ghosties are very supportive. So always it'll still be good. How many, like what is it pretty much? Is it similar to the set that you did at the trays thing? Yeah, because I'm not really like writing new material. Even when I'm writing stuff down, I'm not testing it. You know, in a private gig. Some people would argue, yeah, go for it. Doesn't matter. You already got paid.

I'm more like, this is a tough crowd. Why would I test material out now? Nothing is going to sound good with 30 people in the audience. People could uproariously laugh. Like six people could uproariously laugh and it still wouldn't sound that loud in 30 people. Yeah, you're still gonna be able to convince yourself

it's not that good. At least I would be. It's like, I don't know. I don't know. You need one person per joke to laugh at you. That should be the metric, honestly. It's like, okay, that's all we need. Yeah, so I mean, I, so yesterday was a,

just every day this week has been just like really jam-packed But yesterday just I'm editing the long-form video for Friday this week and we're going to Phoenix next week And so I'm the one coordinating, you know Every like kid that we're gonna shoot with I'm texting them or their parents according to that and also all the pros I'm texting them and coordinating that with them. I'm hiring a videographer for us at Phoenix. I booked the Airbnb. I'm booking the rental car while I'm trying to edit, do all this. ISIS is coming over later today, do the voiceover with me. And also I'm like, I got to stand up comedy gig Friday.

Yeah, you have things that are like directly in front of you and things that are kind of just right down the road. Yeah, it's a lot of coordinate. Tonight we're shooting for Friday Pickleball. We're doing stuff with like other people involved. I'm the one like texting the girls, getting them and make it sure we're all set up chicken pickle court It's a lot of coordinating and it's all good But yeah, it just when you haven't performed for that long. It's like yes, I've done this a hundred times

But not in like five months. So I was like, do I have it memorized? Yeah, I'm trying to go over it so I added it until like 1230 last night and then just like walked around the house for an hour while Rachel was asleep and I was telling her this morning. I was like, I, our house is so creaky. I thought I woke you up multiple times just for me walking. I was like, I got to like suspend myself in the air or something. But so when you were practicing like that, do you say it out loud? Do you mime it? Do you whisper?

There were times where I got pretty expressive with my face alone in my kitchen. I'm like, what am I doing? No, I think that's how you probably should do it, right? It is weird if somebody were like walking by, see you. But like, that's gotta be what you gotta practice. Like you're gonna play. Yeah, my ideal scenario is going on an outdoor walk and I can kind of say it out loud to myself. Because when you say it out loud,

you don't get as distracted with your thoughts. When you keep it all internal, Oh, you go everywhere. And like me trying to rehearse this 20 minute thing takes an hour. Cause I just get off thinking about other stuff and like, no, get back to it. You're performing right now. Yeah. So I didn't talk out loud, but, um, so it's for the most part what I've done before, but I'm also trying to like, um, cater it somewhat to like, there's pickleball people here and I'm not opening for Trey.

So that takes away some jokes. You know, trying to still make it unique. I think about Trey practicing, cause Trey is so like physical and like loud. Yeah, what is his move? How much does he like practice that? You know, like, does he just like say, Katie, don't come downstairs for a little while.

Like I'm doing this thing. You know what I mean? Yeah. Cause I want, yeah thing. You know what I mean? Yeah. Cause I want, yeah. I wonder how physical he gets warming up or yeah. Practicing rehearsing. Yeah. I don't know. So I'm trying to think of ways to potentially put Scott

on the spot. Okay. I don't know how exactly, cause I think I should have someone introduce me. Yeah. And Scott's like, yeah, I'll do it. Yeah. But I don't know how to like potentially like maybe when I'm done. All right. That's it. That's my time. Scott's going to come up I'll do it. Yeah. But I don't know how to potentially,

maybe when I'm done, all right, that's it. That's my time. Scott's gonna come up here and do a few jokes or something like that, or maybe just right beforehand, hey, you should get them warmed up for me. Dude, yeah. Do you mind doing, Brad said you had this thing back in the day, this impression?

Scott's like, I don't think I would fly in 2025, man. I don't know. Uh. Yeah. Scott, I mean, think that would fly in 2025, man. Yeah, Scott. I mean, that was the thing though, like growing up, Scott was the funny one. Like I was like, kind of like around, like I was, I had a sense of humor, but it was like, no, Scott's the one that does all the impressions and knows all the dumb and dumber

and three amigos quotes to Scott. Like Scott knew all these different, like he would quote liar liar and like all these different things. Like he was more adjacent to you than I was. Like, and, and yeah, I'm like, Scott is, has funny, like you've seen like in his Friday Pickleball stuff when he is like different characters, he can get some pretty funny voices, pretty funny.

Like character feels like a really, that's home base for Scott. Yes. And that's how like he would just always be in character as a kid. Maybe he should be a character comedian, kind of like, you know, Steve Martin, Jim Carey. Yeah. Maybe Jeff Donah. Maybe he has like a, he's a, what do they call it? A prop comedian, prop comic. Oh, what's his name? Dax Flame.

Yeah. His prop is autism. Did you, how much of a character was Mitch Hedberg? I don't know. I really enjoyed his stuff. Or I guess still do enjoy it. He's just not alive anymore. Because when I first heard about him, I heard like, oh, he has severe social anxiety. And that's why he performs kind of awkwardly. But then as you get older and you learn more about comedy, like,

oh, that very well just could have been his like shtick. Right. So I don't know. Because like on one level, it's like, is Nate Bargetti really as dumb as he acts like he is? Yes, I think he is. Like, I think like, truly, I think like, like not dumb dumb, but you know, I mean, like, he's not just like, man, I don't, I don't know how to read books. I never read books in your head. You're like, I think you actually read a lot of books. Yeah. I think he truly doesn't read. You know what I mean? He may not know that much.

It's like, was Mitch Hedberg, was Norm MacDonald like a character? Tommy, do you know Mitch Hedberg? You should pull him up on YouTube and just play a little bit for people who are listening, who maybe don't know. But yeah, very much a like one liner committee. It would have crushed Twitter had he been alive when Twitter was around. Like that was this thing, just like one liners, creative, funny, one liners, but delivered like awkwardly. Talk about, yeah, talk about like somebody who had to memorize, like you, it's not like he has a bit that lasts four minutes at a time, he has bits that are,

it's, yeah, one joke at a time for 15 minutes. He's gonna memorize 200 separate jokes. Crazy. Yeah, that's a good point. How often does he for just forget one? Yeah, you just I mean you how do you even have notes for that? They're all it's not like you can say like do the do The bathroom story I think most of the time he's appropriate. We'll just something give you a quick best of mitch edberg sure oh I like rice rice is great when you're hungry and you want 2,000 of something. All right. All right.

All right. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. My mom loves those applause breaks. Refried beans. I like refried beans. That's why I want to try fried beans, because maybe they're just as good and we're wasting time.

I went to a I went to a pizzeria. I ordered a slice of pizza. The dude gave me the smallest slice possible. If the pizza was a pie chart for what people would do if they found a million dollars, this dude gave me the donated to charity slice. Yeah, so just one line after one letter. Yeah, those were all good. Yeah. Yeah. Wow. That's

fun or deep thoughts by Jack Handy. You ever hear about those? I don't know what that is. Timon, will you look up deep thoughts by Jack Handy? I think it was an SNL thing, but it was like, as they're going to commercials, it's like, yeah, something that you would tweet these days. Like, yeah, you know, laughter is the best medicine, which is your mom always said laughter was the best medicine, which is why I guess why half of us died of tuberculosis or something like that. You got any deep thoughts, Thanksgiving advice SNL. Oh, I was just going to have you read a few of them.

Oh, I see. Let me look up the chat. GBT, you know, no, I'm just kidding. Um, you guys read a few. Yeah. I don't think they're, they're pretty appropriate. Obviously. Don't read the ones that have, you know, that one.

Don't read any that say the G word. I'm just gonna, I don't know. Or the W word. Give us a few times. And it says in weightlifting, I don't think sudden uncontrolled urination should automatically disqualify you. When the chairman introduced the guest speaker on as a former illegal alien, I got up from my chair and yelled, what's the matter? No jobs on Mars. When no one left, I was really embarrassed.

I don't think people should make you feel that way. I got lost in that one. I bet it was clever. I got lost. So slow. I bet it was clever. I got lost. Slow down a little bit. Okay. Okay.

Okay. Um, here's a good joke to do during an earthquake straddle a big crack in the ground that if it opens wider, go, whoa, whoa, and flail your arms around like you're going to fall in. They're kind of anti jokes, but also jokes that like, they're just so random. And I will say when I first heard these, it was read by this guy in our youth group who's just like, anything he says is funny. Like imagine not Zach, but kind of Zach, like a little bit of like, and so we just died

laughing at him. He kind of struggled reading them every once in a while. Now that's funny. So when you have an earthquake and you, I say just straddle a crack and just start flailing your arms and say, whoa, whoa, whoa. Says when I, when I think back on all the blessings I've been given in my life, I can't think of a single one unless you count that rattlesnake that granted me all those wishes. I think it's funny. You don't think it's funny. I don't really get it that much. Okay. But I'm not opposed to it. It's just so open-minded. Yeah. I just got a text from Courtney Miller

that kind of reads like one of these. Let's see what we think about this. Someone might have already told you this, but hip abductors and adductors are also known as good girls, bad girls. Oh, sure. Never make eye contact with anyone while doing it. What does good girl, bad girl mean? I don't know. I'm scared to ask.

I feel like hip abductors are the things where you're thrusting kind of. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, oh, that way. Like you open up or you close it down. Well, there kind of. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, oh, that way. Like you open up or you close it down. Well, there you go. Oh yeah. You just, you just showed us, you know, just good Venus fly trap. Little shop of horse horrors. I'll say, I get it now. I had to

say it out loud to my friends and do a couple of hand movements, but I get it now. Courtney's the best, shout out Courtney. Yeah, she's super helpful. She's so good, so smart, so fit. Yeah, I think a couple weeks ago I was confused on how often to do leg day and how people were doing this and she said, don't skip leg day and always wear joggers.

Always wear joggers? Maybe like until I, I don't know now It says don't skip leg day and always wear joggers Maybe it was supposed to be one or the other if you're gonna skip leg day make sure you're wearing joggers Was there a text before that or was that like from the podcast? Response no just from the podcast Don't skip leg day and always wear joggers. Yeah Okay, oh just in general joggers are great. I'm wearing my cozier joggers right now or maybe she's saying I always wear joggers

Don't skip leg days and always wear joggers No, that doesn't maybe Just don't let's really get Maybe just don't. Let's really get in. Just don't skip leg day. Oh, just don't skip. Just don't skip leg day. Whoa.

Is there more to this text? And always wear joggers. Period. We will know what you're hiding. That's the text. Wait, so it starts with just don't skip leg day. Just don't skip leg day. Just don't skip leg day. What is our text before it?

I mean a week before. Oh, okay. Just don't skip. I'm not omitting. It's not, well, you didn't say just at first. We will know what you're hiding. Just don't skip leg day and always wear joggers. We will know what, no one will know what you're hiding.

We will know what you're hiding. We will know what you're hiding. Oh, I don't know. Maybe eventually you're gonna be huge, but you're hiding it from everybody. Yeah, I don't know. This reminds me of when we used to get like, like in college, when a guy would find to get a text or even like get a letter from a girl

that he had been waiting to hear from for forever. We would all gather around and just decipher this thing. Dissect every word. Like a girl who hadn't used ha ha the whole conversation suddenly uses it right after saying something kind of serious. Like, why, what is this ha ha? I mean, walk me through how that makes sense.

One ha and she's like. Ha ha. Okay. Good memories. Good memories. I didn't have those memories with my friends. I wish Catherine would have written me more notes. Well, maybe she just wasn't confusing.

Maybe so. So that was the thing. Yeah, we just, you know, she's homeschooled Christian girls at SBU. You know, everyone was having their first boyfriend and girlfriend at the same time. So no one knew what the heck they were doing. Very confusing.

I remember I asked a girl out on first date and she said, I'll have to talk to my dad. Really? Yeah, it's true story. Truly. Yeah. That needs to go in your standup. I'll have to talk to my dad.

Yeah. And then if he said yes, then you would have to ask permission from him. I guess so. Which was like, I guess I've not opposed that seems respectful, but I don't know. I'm not really trying to get your dad involved yet. It's one thing if it's like, yeah, let's, there's a difference, right? Tell me if I'm right or wrong about this. I didn't casually date very often, but I feel there's a difference between casually going on a date with somebody versus dating their daughter. Correct?

As in maybe you were asking this girl, like, hey, would you like to go on a date with me? Not like, hey, would you like to commit to being in a long-term relationship with me and then possibly get married in six months? Yeah, this wasn't like, we're going steady. This was like first date, I'm interested in you. I'd like to take you out to dinner.

You don't have to talk to him. I think you get, you're allowed, we'll call it two to three casual dates before you talk to the dad. Even in a nice Christian homeschool, whatever, very conservative girl, I feel like she should be all right with that. True or false?

Yeah, I think so. I mean, every family is going to work a little differently, but it feels healthiest. Like, I don't think your parents need to know every first date you go on. In college, maybe in high school or high school. Yeah. I'm thinking like adulthood, like, yeah, if you, you know, so I know a lot of women who have relationships with their mom and they talk every day. So yeah, you're probably going to tell your mom you go on first date, but I think for the most part,

it's like, tell us something's a little more serious. Yeah, to me, I don't think it's wrong to tell them. I think it's wrong to ask permission. Yeah. Because this was in college on campus. This was a girl I met at Canna Cuck, but it was in college. But it wasn't like, yeah.

I feel like it's one thing if it's like my dad, it's Christmas break dad, it's Christmas break and my dad's right down the hall. He's in a wheelchair and he needs assistance. I need to see if he's okay with me being gone for an hour. It actually has nothing to do with the date. I just need to go talk to my dad. Logistically, I just need to make sure like, hey, I need to take the car because Jake's,

you know, car's in the shop. Let me ask my dad if I can borrow his. He drives a Miata. It's a pretty fun car. Not at Christmas time, but we can- I didn't really think about that. Yeah. Hey, I'd like to take you out to dinner this Friday.

I've talked to my dad. We always play Mon Cal on Friday nights. Yeah, Friday night's Parrot night. 500 BC in Africa. Still considerably younger than checkers. Yes. That being said, I'll stop to talk to my dad. Yeah That that's fair

I'd like to go to dinner this Friday night. I have to talk to my dad. I still have to talk to my dad He knows a lot about teeth. He's appearing on the floor this week He I think he would want me there Yeah, I've talked to my dad. He got this incredible deal on ballet tickets, $5 instead of a hundred just for dress rehearsal. It's practically the same thing. Yeah. But he does have other friends that are also really into ballet. So I think he could probably find somebody to go with him. I would like to go out to do a day with you. I just need to talk to my dad.

Knowing what you know, which is nothing. Do you think we went on a first date or not? I think you did not. That is correct. Ding, ding, ding. Okay. Never did. Daddy said no. Did he? Yeah, I don't know. Or she was just like playing me. He's like, uh, that's great. I got to talk to my dad. Out of all the excuses, like I got to wash my hair. Now I use that one. I got to my dog ate my dad. my roommate and I were planning on doing something. Uh, I got to talk to my dad. My dad's, it was just a placeholder probably. Yeah. I will have to, I'm dating someone and I'll have to talk to my dad. I'm dating my dad. I mean, I have to talk to my someone. I mean, I'm going to talk to my dad. What? All right. That's so interesting.

I'm not trying to judge too much, but also, like, I've never been a dad of an 18, 19-year-old girl, but. Me neither. I don't think you need to do it like that for a casual date. Hall-texter. I think it's sweet. I think it's a sweet thing for you to be like, sir, I really respect your daughter. I would like to court her. Okay. That's still pride and prejudice, but no problem. That's yeah, that's very respectful. I don't think you need to do that.

Like, like if you were to say like, Hey, you want to go get coffee sometime or Hey, you want to hang out in the lobby of your dorm sometime? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Ping pong. Have to ask my dad first. Like, yeah, he has my pad. Like how, how, how uncasual does it have to be before it's dad asking? You know what I mean? Yeah. Where's the line? Cause it's, it's obviously very respectful. I want to take out to coffee or first coffee date. Oh, would you mind if I asked your dad for his blessing first? It's like, wow, that means so much, but I don't think my dad wants to meet every single guy that's going to take me to coffee. It's a great point. It would definitely, if the roles were reversed, definitely be weird every once in a while.

Yeah. Like, hey. Your dad is unintentionally getting your name wrong because you brought so many guys over. I love, yeah, I love their cheese pizza on Fridays at the cafeteria, the CAF as I call it. CAF, hey. Do you want to join me for that pizza? Yeah, sure.

Well, hey, I know it's Monday, so I think we have enough time. Can you give me your dad's area code Do you want to join me for that pizza? Yeah, sure. Well, hey, I know it's Monday. So I think we have enough time. Can you give me your dad's area code and then phone number and I will call him up in a range of time to meet him in person. We can find a halfway point between our houses, probably at a, you know, convenience store or something like that. Hopefully one that, you know, serves chicken nuggets and big chicken nuggets guy. And we can just hash it out over some nuggets. And gasoline.

Ironically hash it out because hopefully they'll also have hash browns there. And yeah, we can fill up all, maybe, maybe, you know, he's understanding that, you know, I met him halfway so he can fill up my tank and yeah, then we can maybe go out and not really go out, but just like sit down at the same booth and have some, some mediocre cheese pizza together Your calf has booths Oh, yeah yours didn't no just plastic chairs bomber Diamond you sat in them. I keep forgetting you came to sb. Yeah, you had a sprite in those chairs

Waffle to sprite No, I just oh no, they took the waffles away. Yeah, I think it was just sprite. They took the waffles away at six fifteen. Yeah Was the glass green? I feel like it was green. You're just thinking it's bright. Yeah. The glass is always greener. Tymon, have you ever talked to a female's dad because of some interest?

No. Yeah. No. Good for you. Stay away. It is intimidating. Yeah. Yeah. I don't care what age you are, how comfortable,

how confident you are, it's still like. Oh yeah. Cause you respect it. It's a healthy respect. Yeah. Yeah. Like you knew Steve Koop, nicest guy in the world. You still.

I'd like pump myself up a little bit to just start the conversation to ask. Cause that's a big conversation. Like the wedding, the marriage blessing. He's going to say yes, but. Yeah. I was nervous because I was asking while he was driving. I'm afraid he's going to run us off the road. You know, it's like, why don't I wait till we get to a stop sign. There's not very many

stop signs out there. Yeah. I, you know, I miss, I wasn't man enough at the four way stop downtown. Then I got to wait an hour. Yeah. That's a yield thing. It's, I don't know. Yields dangerous. That's a yield thing. It's I don't know yields dangerous. Oh my yeah. It's just like, okay, he's a nice guy. Yeah. But you respect his daughter. You respect him.

Yeah. Respect what he's done in her life. So therefore you have to be respectful. Yeah. Anyway, I'll tell you afterwards who the girl was. You kind of know who it is. You know her husband. Okay. But hey, they're happily married. They got kids. I'm happily married. They have, they have a four kids.

I don't know how to pronounce his last name very well. Caitlin will get it. I don't know. I'm lost. They have a four and they all play Oh Bo. Oh, I was, I was trying to go for Manny. What's Manny's last name? I'm pretty close. Yeah. Oh, four E. Oh, no, that's funny. Yeah.

No, this girl did not end up marrying Manny. I did meet Manny's now wife golfing one time in Bolivar though. It's a nice time. Yeah. Yeah. Only time I've hung out with her. Manny. Anyway, we need to get Manny on the pod sometime.

Oh, that'd be great. He would be electric. He'd be so fun. I'm kind of break down Kendrick's halftime performance for us. Let's just have a bunch of questions ready to fire off off on them. Yeah, not, not like that. Not, not fire, but you know, yeah, I think we could do it. I still have his location.

I can see where he's at. See if he's in town. How many, how many random locations you have of people? Let's see. If I, if I zoom out. Also, how many are you sharing with other people? I'm sharing with a lot of people. I love sharing.

What's the harm? I'm like, how often does Chris sharing with other people? I'm sharing with a lot of people. I love sharing. What's the harm? I'm like, how often does Chris Skolls check my location? It looks like I've got probably like 35 people's location. Oh, good for you. All over the place too. Yeah, pretty good spread. We got every time zone covered. We got, somebody's up in Massachusetts today.

We got, you know, Patrick Draymond got his location. Where's he up in Washington? Yeah. I don't have anybody West of the Rockies. Really anybody West of Wichita. But yeah, then I'm sharing with another, another handful of 20 or so. Yeah. I love dishing that out. I don't mind people can see where I'm at Man all right good stuff time and what were you one to end with um I Don't know I gosh Every time I'm like I'll probably think of something to say when they next time can I say this time yeah first of all I Love love putting you on the spot second of all Now that you're on camera. I feel like you're dressing a little cooler. I missed the days.

Oh yeah, for sure. I missed the days where time in like would come in dressed in some of those hilarious costumes that he had because he's like, no one's going to see me. And just to make us laugh time, will you bring a few of those back? I know Kermit the frog Kermit the frog was an all-timer like and that's what's so funny is like we're not gonna ever tell anybody that we were he was doing these things yeah well I would try to it would be like I wasn't gonna go to the like get a like costume of that character but like I would get close enough that you could tell who right yes the one time you came in your little sister's shirt and I forgot. And you said, I'm Jasmine from Aladdin. I was like, oh, that's hilarious.

That's so good. So just let's say once a week time. And let's not say every episode you need to necessarily do this. But I don't know. I'll go dig up some of those. Yeah, that'd be good. Yeah, when you dressed up as the artist formerly known as Prince was hilarious.

You paid homage to who was that, um, female pop star that he was like, Joe, uh, Pat Benatar. Yeah. I thought you were going to say Joan of Arc for a second. He did do Joan of Arc. Joan Jett, Joan Jett. Yeah. Everyone knows what she looks like. So that's, that was an obvious one.

That was easy. Um, you did like a, like a, a series, kind of a theme for a while, where it was just Daughters of the American Revolution. That one was fun. That one I didn't love. I didn't like looking over there. No, it was odd. Yeah.

Brad could like guess everyone by name though. Yeah, that was. You were good at that. That was what was so odd about it. Yeah. Yeah, well to this day, I just know them all. Know all the daughters. Do you remember one of Tyman's first episodes when he came dressed as Janelle Benyell? Yeah. Well, to this day, I just know them all know all the daughters. Do you remember one of time it's first episodes when he came dressed as Janelle? Yeah. And

I thought that was an edgy choice to start off with, but it was, it did kind of solidify the job. It was like, yeah, you're in. Yeah. Yeah. Percent. He just got a huge spray tan. Yep. And just look great. Very healthy. So, um, all right. My review of the week is from crazy Catholic traveler. Hey, they say good, clean, fun.
