Starting point is 00:00:00 Jake, I was at the gym lifetime the other day and saw a sign. Granted, it was a sign that was an ad for something, but the sign said healthy habits start with hearing care. Agree or disagree? Oh, yeah. That's interesting. I don't. My my first reaction was I don't I don't think so. Healthy habits start with hearing care, hearing care. Yep. Hearing care. Yep.
Starting point is 00:00:25 Hearing care in its own is already a little confusing. I'm sure there were visuals to help you out. It was an older, it was an older scene. Yeah. It looked like kind of a nursing home kind of. Getting a, Hey listen. Hearing aid put in. You can't hear, how are you supposed to run?
Starting point is 00:00:40 You want to eat more vegetables? Yeah. Try doing that when you can't hear them. Yeah. Yeah. Swimmers ears way worse when you are also deaf. Yeah. Right? Yeah, double ear infection, try already having a hard time hearing before that.
Starting point is 00:00:55 Right. Then get healed. Imagine bench pressing and being like, hey, you're making too much noise. And you'd be like, I didn't know that! I shouldn't have done that. I shouldn't have done that. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, Beating means that it's going down with some random thoughts and white meat too Midwest best friends eating fast food on repeat so come along let's have some fun and go ahead get on your feet cause this is a Ghost from the Spark House Ghost from the Spark House Every Monday morning we're taking grand baths from the Spark House
Starting point is 00:01:37 Ghost from the Spark House Good start. Oh my. All right. Happy Wednesday. You know, we recorded for like two hours and 15 minutes on Monday's episode. And so Brad thought, I mean, they're probably not even going to listen to this one. So it doesn't really matter what we say.
Starting point is 00:01:58 Empty the clip. Yeah. Bring back Rachel. Talk about her racist games. Anyway, last night went to Chick-fil-A. empty the clip. Yeah, it's bring back Rachel. Talk about her racist games. Anyway, last night went to Chick-fil-A, 95th and Metcalf Chick-fil-A. Shout out to our friends that own that one, Derek and Kara. Yeah. They had a special daddy daughter Valentine's night. It was the couple of nights before Valentine's and they, yeah, they had like a, like you made reservations and you got there and they're like, all right, your last name, Ellis. Okay. We have your table over here.
Starting point is 00:02:31 They had tablecloths for us. Just that location. Did that? That's pretty cool. At least far. I know I don't, maybe, maybe other ones did, but yeah, they had like, like the, the workers were in like bow ties and like button up shirts, like white button ups. That's great.
Starting point is 00:02:44 Kind of a fancy chick filet. They gave all the girls, Hattie and Rosie got flowers, roses. And it was awesome. But it was also like one of those things where we got the 5 o'clock reservation, which is the first one, because 530 was already all booked. So it's like, OK, this is going well. But at the 5 o'clock reservation,
Starting point is 00:03:04 we were the first time slot five to five 30 So it's a tight spot. You have to get out of there in 30 minutes Yeah, I mean they didn't like push us out by any means but I think all the dads there like we're cognizant of it We're like good. All right, eat up. Let's go, you know, because we don't want to you know, get them too far behind Uh, but by the time that we had eaten it was it was gunner and his daughter But by the time that we had eaten, it was Gunnar and his daughter, Delaney and then Rosie, Hattie and I in a booth, which is a little tight of a squeeze anyway, no problem.
Starting point is 00:03:30 But by the time we were done, not only did they have like Chick-fil-A, food obviously, but they had markers and these little ornaments that you could color on this white tablecloth. By the five to 530 time slot of the, by the time we were done 30 minutes into this thing, that tablecloth, by the 5 to 530 time slot of the, you know, by the time we were done 30 minutes into this thing, that tablecloth was no longer white looking. Like it was-
Starting point is 00:03:50 They covered it. It was one of those things where it was like, I don't think they're going to change these tablecloths every time, but that's probably something, when they do this again next year, they're going to be like, okay, we should probably not do the white tablecloth thing. Yeah. So the five o'clock crew is going to desecrate our tablecloths.
Starting point is 00:04:04 100%. I mean, Rosie, I mean, they gave these little ornament hearts that you could color on there like little, little piece of wood basically. And I mean, they were tiny enough where Rosie was just going off the heart the entire time, like just missing left and right. And then as we were leaving, Hattie kind of like snagged the tablecloth and like pulled a bunch of like the food that they hadn't bust off yet and like spilled water all over the booth. And like, I'm like, I'm so sorry. Hattie had no idea. I was like, what happened to the booth?
Starting point is 00:04:32 Cause I went to go get a drink and Gunnar was there and Gunnar was like, Oh, don't worry about it. I don't know what happened. You know? Uh, and as we're leaving, we see like three other tables have a similar situation where like people had spilled things and they're cleaning it up. And I was like, I think this was a fun idea, but I don't know if the workers liked it as much as the dads did. Yeah. Was it a cool time though? It was so much fun. Yeah. We shout out to the 95th and Metcalf location of Chick-fil-A because they have like a little kids area, like kids
Starting point is 00:04:59 corner. They don't have a play place, but they have like this area that has mancala as well as, you know, puzzles and all these other games. And so I'm sure a lot of the parents out there know this, but if you order a Chick-fil-A kids meal, you can replace the prize with ice cream. Bingo. So Gunner and I did that, but we did it, you know, after our five 30 times slot was over. So we went and just sat over in this other area that was not reserved. It was just kind of civilians, common folk. And we sat there. I mean, we were there from like five to seven, I think.
Starting point is 00:05:32 We were there for a long time, just hanging out. Just Conan and Mon Collin. Yeah, Linda Hinteger, Sam Hinteger's mom. Yeah, shout out. Kara, the person who owns Chick-fil-A, her and her husband, her mom as well. She came and visited. I hadn't seen her in years. And so we just talked and caught up with her and it was a blast. Yeah. We had
Starting point is 00:05:48 a bunch of fun and, um, yeah. So shout out to Chick-fil-A. It was, it was a great time, but it was one of those things. I was like, I wonder if not, whatever, stereotyping one way or the other, but like all these men were like, very like on top of like, we got to go. It's five 27. We gotta get out of here. Yeah. You know, whereas like, I think some, I don't know, and maybe not every man was like that there, but it seemed like most of them were very respectful of like, we got to get out by 530 because that's our time slot. So, but it was, it was a madhouse and I just commend Chick-fil-A workers. Like when we've done Chick-fil-A stuff with F12 and then Grande Buu, like they were never overwhelmed. They were like, this is fun. And that's how they were last night too. I was like, no problem. We'd love to
Starting point is 00:06:28 clean that up. Don't worry. Like, cause Hattie like dumped out a bunch of fruit on the ground. So I'm like picking up Mandarin oranges, putting it on this plate. And the guy's like, sir, don't worry about it. We'll do it. And I, so I just dropped the plate and just dumped the oranges right back off there. And I was kidding. But yeah, they were just so kind. So it was fun. That's a great thing. Good for them. That's fun that they're doing that. And it was sweet.
Starting point is 00:06:49 It was a sweet time with Gunner and Delaney. Apparently Delaney that night kept saying, can we go to dad or Hattie's dad's house? Can we go? And then she asked or he asked her, who else loves you besides mom and dad? And she goes, Bo and Patrick Mahomes So got her doing something right that family
Starting point is 00:07:09 So anyway, it was a sweet time. Are you uh Valentine's Day is tomorrow. You gonna get a heart-shaped pizza. Yeah, we talked about it We're doing Papa Murphy's heart-shaped pizza. Okay, Papa Murphs. I don't I don't John's comments recently Has he I mean years ago? Oh I don't have... Papa John's comments recently. Has he? I mean years ago. Oh.
Starting point is 00:07:26 Catherine likes Papa Murphy's a lot. I think it tastes good. I think it's kind of crazy that we're spending this much money on a pizza that we have to make ourselves though. Right? Yep. I'm like, what's the, like, what a model.
Starting point is 00:07:39 Good for Papa Murphs. I know. I can't wait to find something like that. Like imagine like, hey, here are all the parts to a pickleball paddle. Here's all the wood for a table. imagine like hey here all the parts to a pickleball paddle Here's all the wood for a table. Yeah, here's all the wood for a table. Yeah the instructions It's super easy to learn You know you have to have all the right tools and a lot of workspace and I don't know five to ten years of experience
Starting point is 00:07:59 So yeah adult Legos Yeah, anyway, so that'll be fun. Keep it easy easy keep it simple and then doing bunko night the next night So, oh, yes, bunko bunko. Yeah, that's fun. What are you doing this weekend? Um going up to Iowa. Holy cow for um Anna's friend Willa invited us up just to like hang out go to this like church event thing any escape rooms this time I don't know. It'd be kind of fun. What city? Des Moines. Nice. Capital city. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I don't know. I want to do an escape room. I've been wanting to ever since I did the first one. Like I want to do better. You're an escapee. Yeah. You want to escape it? Yeah. Escape head.
Starting point is 00:08:42 Yeah. Escape go. Do you think that the best person at escape rooms is called the escape goat? Yes or no? Really good question. Yes. Yes. Thank you. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:54 Yeah. The escape goat. Anyone who's not calling them that should. Yeah. I'd say escape goat, you would think. Oh, they're like the one you throw under the bus. But you're calling them the goat. The goat of escaping.
Starting point is 00:09:03 The escape goat, yeah. So what do you, you couldn't reveal last week what you were doing for Valentine's, but now that it's happened, what are you going to do? What's your plan? Oh, that's I was like comedy show. No, I see you're saying like during the day. Yeah. Rachel, I each doing something for each other. Rachel made me put my headphones on and close the door yesterday because she said, I have to call someone.
Starting point is 00:09:25 Oh. So I don't know what that means. I don't know what we're doing. She said it's from one to two. So something that is like some sort of appointment. Cool. I don't think it's food. Massage?
Starting point is 00:09:35 I don't know. Oh, that's a good idea. Sorry, maybe I shouldn't like, I don't know the answer. I don't know either, but that's, mine, I'm gonna take her to this really like cozy and cute looking bookstore. Where's that? I looked at a bunch of different ones trying to find the best like used bookstore in Kansas City and I found one in Westport. I forget what it's called now, but it's going to pop in
Starting point is 00:09:57 there for an hour or two. Cool. Hang out. Get a little cozy. Yeah. What do you do you think? Like at a bookstore, you just read the books there and then you buy some, honestly, I don't know. Like, yeah, I think we should, uh, exactly. I was like, it would be fun for us to like go in there and read, but it feels wrong to bring a Kindle into a bookstore. It's such a slap in the face. So I think we should just like, I'm in between books right now. So I think I want to go in like fine one buy it start reading it in there cool Um, I think Rachel might be too. So it'd be kind of fun. That's sweet. Uh, but yeah, we talk too much time friday, so There's one on 39th street. Is that the one you're going to it might be okay across from blue koi
Starting point is 00:10:37 It might be it's a good one. It's like a two-story one. Yeah the corner. Yeah Yeah I don't know if it's on a corner. I don't want to promise that mine is on a corner. All right. All right. But, uh, good Boba tea across the street. If you want to Boba, Boba and books, you're gonna have a whole body. Yeah. So, uh, so yeah, that's tomorrow. Be a fun day. Friday mornings are always a fun, you know, dopamine rush. You get all the Friday pickleleball stuff posted. It's out. And then my dad's in town. I think we're going to grab lunch with him.
Starting point is 00:11:10 Valentine's Day stuff, Valentine's Day stuff. Comedy show, Pickleball, full little Valentine's Day. Pops going to the comedy show? I don't think so. I think I'll just perform for him at lunch. Just like dad. Do the whole routine. Do a dress rehearsal for $5. Yeah. Cool.
Starting point is 00:11:27 So yeah, that'd be fun. What do you think of, is this, I wrote down embarrassing or boss. That pantsuit's really boss, man. Embarrassing or boss at Chick-fil-A last night or the classic 30 count nuggets came in a heart shaped tin. Embarrassing or boss. Well, I don't think it's gonna, gonna, gonna, gonna goes, that's a boss move. And I was like, I don't know if I feel that it's like a catering, catering tray. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:00 Embarrassing or boss. I think it starts off embarrassing. Like, geez, a whole heart shape box for yourself. But then once you take down that 30th nugget, this guy's a boss. That guy's a boss. He knew what he wanted and he devoured it. I was really hungry the other day. And so I went into Chick-fil-A and actually ate grilled nuggets in the store.
Starting point is 00:12:19 And I don't know how he put down 30. Really? Yeah. Reached a limit. How many do you think you had? I think I did two 12 counts. I think I tapped out at like 23. I had like one and a half left.
Starting point is 00:12:29 I was like, that's good for me. Yeah. I'm sad. It does. 22 and a half. It does fill you up. I mean, it's good. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:36 I mean, what is that? Probably 90 grams of protein with 30 count. I think it's a hundred. Hundo P. Yeesh. Hundo P. Yeah. Yeah, they're good.
Starting point is 00:12:44 Juicy. Last night, maybe it was the tray they were in. But I if I almost audited them. I was like, this doesn't feel like 30. It felt like I know what 30 should feel like in here. Honestly, I was still hungry afterwards. I don't know. It felt like 23. Like it felt like yours. I was like, but but some of them were huge and some of them are tiny. And so I'm like, who, how are we counting these things? Auditing Chick-fil-A after they just served you, embarrassing or boss? Embarrassing. Yeah, a hundred percent. You don't be, hey, I ordered 30 and I'm only counting 27. It's like, get over yourself.
Starting point is 00:13:22 Yeah, I catered it to myself and it was a little off. Yeah. What do you guys normally do about that? What? How should we go? Just refund the whole thing or just give me three nuggets, three grilled nuggets. Those grilled nuggets are so small, dude. Reimburse me for three probably just, uh, yeah, let's try to get healthier. So I'm seeing an audiologist later, but I'd like the three nuggets as well. Please. I'm trying to get healthier. So I'm seeing an audiologist later, but I'd like the three nuggets as well, please. Doing a hearing test, but I'm also trying to eat healthy because I don't know if the hearing test is the only thing it's the it's the first thing I should do. I need to I want to throw down a little audit on shields with shields this week.
Starting point is 00:13:58 Okay. And this was like six days ago. Let's see how well I can remember this. Basically, I go to shields for the record for the question. It's. It's regional regional. It's a giant sporting goods store giant. It's a little unbelievable Just because you walk in and there's a giant aquarium and then once you get past the giant aquarium There's an indoor ferris wheel pretty good size ferris wheel to a legit size ferris wheel Yeah, makes a lot of noise like it's got a lot of like CO2 powered stuff on it. Okay. I noticed that. Very good, yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:29 Anyway, I go to check out from this store from Shields and I forgot what I was doing, but I was kind of in a hurry. And so I was like, yep, just that we're good. And she was like, okay, and would you want to give me your email address? And I was like, oh no, I'm good. You know, and she's like, okay, and would you want to give me your email address? And I was like, oh, no, I'm good. You know, and she's like, oh, it doesn't, it doesn't send you any like spam email or whatever. It's just so you have like a digital receipt in case you want to return it.
Starting point is 00:14:52 And I was like, oh, I, I don't know. It always takes forever to type on these screens because it is like the little like credit card scanner machine. And she was like, oh, you use my keyboard. I was like, well, I already, I already pushed back too much. You know, this is too much friction. So at this point I have to acquiesce. Like, all right, yeah, yeah, yeah. And so I'm on her keyboard typing in, you know, my email address.
Starting point is 00:15:14 I'm like, all right, good. And then she has turned, like the whole thing swivels. So I see the computer screen and the keyboard is facing me, just like a laptop basically. And then I enter my email, I press enter, and there's a prompt on the screen that says, do you want promotional emails? I just watch her click yes.
Starting point is 00:15:30 I'm like, that's what you just told me. You promised. You promised you wouldn't do that. So that was kind of funny. I was like, I guess well played. You really got it out of me. I hope you got a commission off this. Well done.
Starting point is 00:15:43 Mason Cavalier used to work at Shields, and they have to, they're supposed to always make a personal connection with you of some sort. A lot of times it's just like, oh, I love those shoes. All those, you know, oh yeah. Cool shirt that you're buying. Like something like that.
Starting point is 00:15:55 That makes sense. Cause a guy, I wasn't going there for pickleball stuff. I'm like, I'm in Shields. Let's like peruse the pickleball section. I like doing that. And he was trying, this makes so much sense. Really? I was so confused. Cause this guy like did not the pickleball section. I like doing that. And he was trying, this makes so much sense. Really? I was so confused,
Starting point is 00:16:07 because this guy like did not play pickleball, but refused to stop talking to me about pickleball. And I think he was just probably trying really hard to make a connection. Trying to make a personal connection, because then I do know that they make a lot of money, or like they make a commission if you sign up for the credit card or whatever.
Starting point is 00:16:22 Yeah. And so I think they always are asking you to do those things. Had an ex-girlfriend in college who worked at Maurice's and I swear a half her pay was for the credit card or whatever. And so I think they always are asking you to do those things. Had an ex-girlfriend in college who worked at Maurice's and I swear a half her pay was off the credit card. So I signed up for just like a boutique fashion, women's fashion store or whatever. Sign up for a credit card.
Starting point is 00:16:35 And then it's like one of those things like, just sign up for it, just cancel it right away. I still get paid. I'm like, oh, cool, cool, cool. That won't hurt me down the road at all. Yeah, all right, whatever. But yeah, this was really fun. I won't get into the details of it,
Starting point is 00:16:45 but it was just like, this guy's just grasping his straws, trying to connect about, he's like, what do you think about those paddles got banned, right? And I was like, yeah, yeah, they did. And then he's like calling them by the wrong name. And I'm like, oh, these battles, yeah, yeah. And then he's like, yeah, it's crazy what the judges are saying,
Starting point is 00:17:03 which like judges is not, I think he means like the people who test the paddles. I don't know judges as a new buzzword for me and pickleball. Not like the Supreme court justice. Yeah, I think it's like crazy what Clarence Thomas is saying about these YOLAs. He pronounced it Jula. Of course.
Starting point is 00:17:19 You know, he just credit to the guy. Now it really makes so much sense. Cause he like right off the bat, he was like, do you play a lot of pickleball? I said, yes. I said, what about you? He said, no, but that did not stop him. I'm like, so what, he asked me what tournaments I play in. And I was like, like the names of them. He's like, yeah, like, I didn't know. Like, do you play like Midwest nationals? And I go Midwest nationals.
Starting point is 00:17:35 He's like, yeah, I think there's one. Midwest nationals sounds great. It also sounds like oxymoronic. Like it's like the nationals, regional. Like, I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. and I go Midwest Nationals. He's like, yeah, I think there's one. Midwest Nationals sounds great. It also sounds like oxymoronic.
Starting point is 00:17:47 Like it's like the nationals regionally. Yeah, true. I honestly, this was very early in the conversation. So I didn't know he didn't know what he was talking about at the time. And I was like, I don't know about Midwest National. You know, and he's like, no, I think they did them for tennis.
Starting point is 00:18:01 I was thinking they did that for pickleball as well. Maybe they did it, but I just didn't know. Let me show you some of these paddles over here. We got- These are the reason that you were in a hurry for this other woman. Probably. I was like, I gotta get out of here.
Starting point is 00:18:14 I gotta get out of here now. Yeah, he showed me some pickleball bags that convert to chairs. He was like, you know, a lot of these public parks, well, actually I don't really know, I don't go to them, but I've heard a lot these public parks. Well, actually, I don't, I don't really know. I don't go to them, but I've heard a lot of public parks don't have seating. And so these are nice to sit on. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:18:31 Cause I don't know. I don't play how much pickleball, but you, you sit down quite a bit while you're playing. It's a Paralympic thing. Yes. You're doing pretty well for yourself. It has wheels as well. Yeah. And the seat chairs.
Starting point is 00:18:42 Yeah. It's pretty cool. Oh, wow. Yeah. That makes so much sense. Were you there during the afternoon, like a slower time? I feel like I went to Bass Pro Shops yesterday to return some gloves that I got for Catherine for Christmas. I was getting worried I was gonna miss my window. Oh, good for you. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:18:57 She really wanted gloves to walk in that were just like Rachel's. And so I was like, okay, Rachel, what kind do you have? And then whatever. Catherine was like, well, don't get the exact same one. Just get ones like Rachel's. And so I was like, okay, Rachel, what kind do you have? And then whatever. Keller's like, well, don't get the exact same one. Just get ones like Rachel's. I was like, okay. Why not get the exact same ones?
Starting point is 00:19:11 Yeah, what's that about? So anyway, she didn't like any of the three. I was like, I don't know which ones to get you. So I got her three. She didn't like any of them and ended up going with other ones. I think the ones that Rachel's been really liking lately, my mom got those for her.
Starting point is 00:19:22 So she probably didn't know where to get them. That was- You're rocking a hard place. It's just like, I think these are the ones. So she probably didn't know where to get them. That was- You're rocking a hard place. Which is like, I think this is the ones that she's talking about, but I also have these. I'm like, I don't know, doesn't matter. Catherine had these, yeah, whatever. I've not tried to, I'm just jokingly bashing on her.
Starting point is 00:19:36 She was like, I want them to be warm and thick, but also small enough where I can still do things in them. Yeah, I could still like change your oil. She was like, I want to be able to buckle in like a, like a, a, a stroller, like buckle in a kid or maybe tie their shoe. I was like, tie their shoe with gloves on. Dexterity. Those are no, you can't do that with very many gloves, especially not warm ones.
Starting point is 00:19:59 Not a winter glove. And so I found a few that were like lighter weight, but also I think insulated. Anyway. Yeah. Even if you get slightly heavier, you go duck skin, goodbye cell phone. Yeah. You know, the heat's not going to get through there. So anyway, return those on a snowy day at 11 AM to a Bass Pro. I was a king in there. People were so excited to see me. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, you probably the only person in there. There was like nobody in the parking lot. It was chatting you up. Yeah. This guy was so excited to try to sell me a credit card. And I was like, Oh man, I know that I am one of the three people you've
Starting point is 00:20:32 seen today, but it's not going to happen. You're not dating me. So no, thank you. See you later. We're not dating. And this is Maurice. Yeah. So anyway, I think about that a lot. Like it's like a double edged sword when you go to these places at these, we have such flexible schedules. We can go there at 1 p.m. No problem. But then everyone's ready for you at 1 p.m. Yeah. I did get not a full conversation, but I got spoken to by so many employees. Yeah. You know, hey, sir. How's it going?
Starting point is 00:21:01 Good. Good. Good. Good. Good. Yes. Thank you. Hey, you fine. Absolutely. Nice. Nice folks. Oh, hey, you fine Absolutely nice nice folks. Oh, yeah, she'lls is like she'lls a top-notch. I love it I think one of the things they're known for or may not known for I think one of the things I've heard about them is that They never offer you like they never have things on sale. It's like always the same price Did you observe their shoes were on sale. Okay, okay, okay. So that's been debunked real quick. I don't know, or I don't know what it is. Maybe they were.
Starting point is 00:21:33 Something about it, I've heard that. They have a Ferris wheel inside, that's their thing. Yeah, the Ferris wheel is the same price always. You can't get discounts on the Ferris wheel. You get a coupon on the Ferris wheel. That book I read, Devil in the White City on the Ferris wheel. You can't get a coupon on Ferris wheel. That book I read, Devil in the White City, the one book I've read, that was the big thing. Ferris wheel was like America's answer to the Eiffel Tower
Starting point is 00:21:53 as far as like architectural ingenuity. Good for us. Pretty cool, honestly. The first Ferris wheel was huge. How many people go ride the Eiffel Tower? Probably zero. Yeah, I think it was like these cars that they had the Ferris wheels in.
Starting point is 00:22:10 Tymon, will you look this up? Just first Ferris wheel cars or size or whatever. But I think it was like you could fit 50 people in a car and there were 20 cars or something like that. Oh, now there's something. It was wild. You were taking trains up there. It was the first time I think that they used
Starting point is 00:22:23 a certain kind of steel. And so it was like really strong, but really thin steel and so it looked people were like there's no way that's gonna Like withstand all this stuff. We did it. It says the cars on the first ferris wheel 27 feet long 13 feet wide and 9 feet high They were the size of a school bus or train car each car held 40 revolving chairs and could accommodate up to 60 people 40 revolving chairs. There's all to 60 people. 40 revolving chairs. The involving chairs is a funny car. Did it say how many cars there were? I don't know. I'm looking at, I guess there's a picture.
Starting point is 00:22:51 I mean, it looks like just as many as your normal Ferris wheel. Like just it's a big, there's one, two, three, four. I don't know. There's probably like 30 car is crazy. Giant. So it's like the first time it's ever been. It was like people are like, we're going to do this thing. We're going to go all the way to the top and just expect. And ever been. It was like, people are like, we're gonna do this thing. We're gonna go all the way to the top and just expect. And these people hadn't seen, like this was like right when skyscrapers were coming out.
Starting point is 00:23:11 So like, so- You've never seen that vantage point. Had never seen that vantage point before. Why don't they do that now? Why isn't that attraction like a giant Ferris wheel that fits a lot of people? The first Ferris wheel had a capacity of 2160 people. Wow.
Starting point is 00:23:23 Is what this says. It was like a million people rode this Ferris wheel like at this fair, like it's crazy. This feels like something that you would hear as like, yeah, I was at the world fair in St. Louis. St. Louis randomly got like a ton of like these first things. St. Louis was a big, St. Louis and Kansas City since they were like in the middle of all these trading
Starting point is 00:23:39 things used to be such a big deals on the water. Yeah. You know, cause St. Louis, St. Louis have Missouri and Mississippi or just Missouri. Like rivers. Yeah. I don't know if they're the Missouri River. They definitely have a Missouri River. They do. I think Kansas City goes, well, they for sure have Mississippi.
Starting point is 00:23:57 Oh, maybe I'm thinking of Columbia definitely has Missouri River. OK, give it to them then. Yeah. Get on up there. All right. You guys can have it. Yeah. Anyway, good for this wheel, though. Crazy, crazy. Okay. Give it to them then. Get on up there then. All right, you guys can have it. Yeah. Anyway, um, Ferris wheel though. Crazy, crazy interesting. Yeah, that's a fun fact. And then let's go ahead and bring it back to the jocks in the room. Uh, Mr. Ferris, I think his name is John. Nope. George Washington Ferris is his name. Great. Uh, he was from Pittsburgh. He was famous for what kind of metal steel? What are the football players that play in Pittsburgh called Bruins the Pittsburgh Bruins? They're brewing up some steel
Starting point is 00:24:34 Pittsburgh Steelers so Steel City, Steeltown, Steeltown USA I'll bring back to the Ferris wheel that and that is why they have a massive Ferris wheel in Hinesfield I'll bring it back to the Ferris wheel. That is why they have a massive Ferris wheel in Heinz Field. Hindsight. Hindsight. Yep. That's why they call it that. So anyway.
Starting point is 00:24:52 Good for Shields. It's been Ferris wheel and Shields talk. Ferris wheel and Shields talk. I have a segment for us. Please. Sometimes with your kids, you like to tell them, or you like to ask them who's in charge. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:03 This segment is called, you're in charge. You're in charge. I like it. All right. I'm ready. So this goes, oh, big mama tease back. Born ready. All right.
Starting point is 00:25:16 You're in charge, and you can eliminate one animal species from existence. What is it? You're in charge. Okay, can we take a step back and define what an animal is? I know that sounds crazy. Well, a mosquito? Is that an animal? Yeah. Mosquito. That's a good one. Yeah, I was trying to think like kills a lot of people. I don't know what is an animal. Yeah,'s about an animal. Mine was going to be some kind of bug. So I can't say.
Starting point is 00:25:50 The thing is like a bee, those make honey. That's not, that's good. Bees are important. They're important. Yeah. Spiders also important to keep the bugs down. Is that right? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:00 Sometimes I think so. Cause spiders are like, I don't like that animal, but I wouldn't want to eliminate its entire species. I don't think that animal, but I wouldn't want to eliminate its entire species. I don't think. Same with bats. Bats like crazy amount of mosquitoes, maybe some, some bad thing every, every night. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:13 So if you take out mosquitoes, then I can take out bats. Cause now they're no longer if they eat mosquitoes. Can we double check that the mosquitoes? Sure. Cause I'd be, I'd feel really bad. I looked up an insect is an animal. Okay. So we do have that. You guys ever see a spider and then like sometimes I'll see one and like well, I haven't seen any bugs a while
Starting point is 00:26:31 You just let it go. I'll kind of talk to him and say like alright. Hey, I Could have killed you you keep these bugs away from me. Yeah, we got a truce. That's smart Yeah, I'll like let them know kind of what the deal is. Yeah, it's fair. Yeah Many species of bats consume mosquitoes as part of their diet. I think, yeah, one, two punch mosquito bat. You guys know mosquito bat? Yeah, team effort.
Starting point is 00:26:54 I got to go snake. Oh, boy. I'm not in charge. What are snakes useful for? They eat mice? I don't know. For some reason, snakes, a lot of them justify their existence because I think they're kind of a cool
Starting point is 00:27:06 animal Probably but they're only cool in a cage. It's true. If there was a snake like I like seeing a colorful snake in a cage But not anywhere else. Yeah, I don't even like that. I had nightmares about snakes as a kid Never run from them snakes are considered beneficial to the environment because they help control pest populations. Let them spread. Let them spread. Particularly rodents. By preying on them, thus maintain the balance of ecosystems and preventing the spread of
Starting point is 00:27:34 diseases. Let it spread. I don't care if a snake is killing mice. I'd much rather see a mouse in my house than a snake. Yep. Okay. There's not songs about snakes in the house. They also serve as a food source for other animals. Oh, I'd hate if you had to eat one above the snake on the food chain. I got to take down a snake. Yeah. Gross. That's not gonna taste good. Also not gonna be able to kill it. What's worse?
Starting point is 00:27:57 Snake on ground, snake in water. Or a snake in tree. Oh, I'd actually go snake in water. Snake in water. Snake in water is so terrifying. Anything in water. Anything that can swim in water that can hurt me. It seems like most things can. Fair, because you are so slow in water compared to like a lion in water, you're like crap. Can any animal not swim?
Starting point is 00:28:20 No. I just think most animals, they can at least swim faster than I can. Are we the slowest swimming animal probably? It's like a you know and I bet I could I bet I could if we're going 50 meter free. I bet I could go faster enough pig Give me give me free 50 meter freeing against a swine. No problem All right, so I said, can animals swim? So this, it says, animals that can swim, fish.
Starting point is 00:28:51 Thanks. Nearly all fish are natural swimmers. Even fish are scary. Scary! When I'm in the water. Like underneath you. Oh, if one touches me, I'm gonna freak out. Yeah, see ya, yeah.
Starting point is 00:29:02 Not every animal could swim. Some animals, like hippos and chimpanzees are now hippos That's like where they kill you. I don't buy that Maybe they're standing but they say chimpanzees are not strong swimmers and may be afraid of water All right, so good to know you find yourself in a one-on-one with a chimp. See ya take them to the pond You know cannonball Wait around a little bit. Yeah, he's gonna shrivel up like the wicked witch of the East. What about mice? They don't swim. They don't swim. That's the whole thing is that you put them in water and they'll drown, right? Well, maybe they can swim for a little
Starting point is 00:29:32 bit, but not overnight. And they don't turn into butter. Yeah. Yeah. If there's long as no cream in the water. That's true. Yeah. Okay. You're right. Just cause you put something in water. Doesn't mean it drowns eventually Eventually doesn't mean it can't swim Like someone who went overboard on a cruise me and water.

Starting point is 00:31:43 Yes, I was a rebel. I didn't know music, bass, treble. But I did know one thing, one thing for sure. I wanted that coffee. I wanted it to endure. Yes. Took a while. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:05 Before what Ryan was sure. So there I went, mainstreamroasters.com, GRKC. I'm, I'm, I'm not Dom. Vias, Dominic Vias? What? Dominic Vias? What? Dominic Vias? No, I'm just not, I'm not like a Dami.
Starting point is 00:32:27 You're not Dami. I'm not Dom. I use GRKC. And so that's what I do for 10% off. What do you do? Makes you think. It grabs your attention because you were expecting it to drive. It's like, oh, I just woke up.
Starting point is 00:32:45 I'm still waiting for it to, you're not going to. And that's what Made Sure Roasters does. It'll wake you up. And that's my story. Yeah, it does bring a tear to people's eyes. I see that, I see that tear over there. I see that tear. I see that tear.
Starting point is 00:32:56 With every tear duct closed. Every head bowed and tear ducts closed. Go to madesureroasters.com and get your coffee today and tomorrow. Yes. But that's it. Really? There might be more, but while supplies last. Okay, yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:12 Supplies last. You're in charge of an airline. What's one new rule for flying? You're in charge. I'm in charge. Okay, am I in charge of like, I'm in charge. Okay. Am I in charge of like, I'm the president of the airline? Yep.
Starting point is 00:33:30 Easy. I'll simply say bigger drinks. Oh, bigger complimentary drinks, bigger cups. Just like, like, yeah, make it a little nicer for the people that like don't want to drink a few little sips and then have a thing of ice. Not a bad answer. Yeah. Because it's, I mean, we're talking maybe six ounces of that Coke Zero. But if that's what I do in my airline, people are going to want to go on my airline.
Starting point is 00:33:51 Yeah, you get a full can. Yeah, just go cans. Yeah. Or just yeah, just give them the can. Sometimes they do that. And I think why doesn't everybody? Yeah, it's like a special treat. You know, just take the can. Take the can. It's like it's on me, I can't believe you're the modern day Santa. I'm trying to maximize profit on my airline time. And so I am not going to waste liquid, lot more trash that way. So I'm going to say stay in your room only.
Starting point is 00:34:18 Stay in your room only on my planes and just pack them full. Yeah. It's like a nightclub. Nightclub. First class, you got tables up front, you know, and back, you just stand and it's just, you know, a bunch of girls saying, excuse me, excuse me, my friends are up there. And there is, there are some advantages, like there is gonna be like live music on the plane.
Starting point is 00:34:37 So it's fun. Smoking? Areas. Yeah. Yeah. Smoking or not? We'll contain it, it's not gonna go anywhere. Okay, smoking or not? Yeah, they'd say. And yeah, it's not gonna go. Okay, you're not yet. You said they'd say and Yeah, they extend your only just they can do it for metro subways, you know You're all on this. Yeah, just hang on if you're if you're crashing you're crashing, right? Like you're not gonna be like well, I wasn't sitting down. So therefore, you know, whatever this is good
Starting point is 00:35:02 Let's figure out flotation devices But then again, you're crashing you. We'll have to figure out floatation devices. But then again, you're crashing, you're crashing. That's also true. What if you ran an airline and said, we do not have floatation devices. In place of that, everyone gets a free carry-on or something like that.
Starting point is 00:35:17 Like, you know, you get the room we're saving from the floatation devices, free check bag. You're welcome. Yeah, it's not a bad, yeah, just like, hey, we're not as safe as everyone else, but it's way cheaper. Yeah. And it's like, we're not safe in the ways that don't matter
Starting point is 00:35:33 statistically at all. Really. I think it's an airline for Christians. It's like, if you know where you're going, hop on in. That's great. Spirit airlines. We could call it that. Yeah. That's a good point. Spirit air. Holy spirit air. a good point. Spirit Air, Holy Spirit Air. Holy Spirit Airlines. Spirit Air, yeah, above the clouds.
Starting point is 00:35:52 Great, that's perfect. You're in charge of all public, like federal holidays. Okay. Tell me one you're gonna get rid of and one you're gonna add in its place. Okay. Tell me one you're going to get rid of and one you're going to add in its place. Hmm. Okay. And okay.
Starting point is 00:36:08 I don't know. Are you looking up what the federal holidays? I'm just gonna look up federal holidays. Yeah, I can't like, I don't, I don't have like a disdain necessarily towards this, but I don't understand president's day needing to be a huge deal. Yeah. I don't know. I love our history. I love America, but like, do we need to like have a day for presidents? I'm looking at holidays and I don't see presidents on here. Well, really kind of weird. I see like all the other major ones you'd think of, I think maybe they changed the
Starting point is 00:36:44 name of it. Um, like I think we're the gaps, ones you'd think of, I think. Maybe they changed the name of it. Um, like I think where are the gaps? Like where do we kind of need a holiday? Cause I like to have an one in February. Oh, you're talking about like dates and everything too. Yeah. That's just what I'm choosing to consider. I couldn't, I couldn't have told you when any, I don't know when president's day was
Starting point is 00:37:00 until you, until Rachel said she had it off. Yeah. Um, so I'm gonna say Okay, we keep President's Day. What do we got in March? Got any holidays in March? I don't think we have anything in March. When's Labor Day? Labor Day is September 2nd. That's what this says And then there's something Memorial Day is November. I'm a keep Memorial Day Memorial Day is May. Oh, yeah, I'm sorry What's there's something veterans day is November. Yeah. Oh, okay. Okay. I Give Memorial Day Oh yeah, I'm sorry. What's, there's something, Veterans Day is November. Yeah. Oh, okay. Okay.
Starting point is 00:37:25 Thanksgiving. I gave him Memorial Day and Thanksgiving. Screwed up. I eat turkey on both. Yeah, we go really big on meals for both of them. I grill out turkey. Memorial Day is awesome. Yep, it's the start of summer.
Starting point is 00:37:37 Veterans Day, I'm not saying I'm taking away, but I think we need to have a little more traditions along with Veterans Day. Like, I don't feel like we need to be warmer weather. Just change Veterans Day to April or something. Or March. It sounds like we need something in March. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:37:49 Or April. It's a little warmer. We don't have anything in April? I don't think so. All right. Veterans Day in April. And then I'm going to add in, you have to submit your tax forms for this, but like if you're below a certain tax bracket, you just automatically get the day off. Oh, great. Like just essentially like hard workers day.
Starting point is 00:38:10 If you're rich, you still have to work. Is there a minimum and a maximum? Like you have to be in this bracket. You have to be a full-time employee. Okay. Yeah. It can't be like minimum wage, like a W-2 employee hours a week, earning less than $55,000 a year. Congrats, have a nice Tuesday at home. But I would make sure it's a bookend. I do Monday or Friday. Okay. I want them to extend the weekend. That way, if they're smart about it,
Starting point is 00:38:36 they'll also be sick on Thursday. Yeah. So then it's a four day weekend. And then what it does, it incentivizes your employer to pay you one above the threshold. You know, hey, we're bumping up your salary to 56,000 Hey, it's got paid a thousand dollars to go to one extra day of work true. Very good. So Good good holiday bread. Thanks. What's the name of it called?
Starting point is 00:38:56 We're gonna call it Terry day Cuz like, you know those guys are working hard. They're usually named like Terry Okay, come on Terry and it could be a girl or a guy Yeah, Terry day Time you have a holiday you want to add I've been thinking I can't think of I don't think we're missing anything Time would probably want snake day. He loves him so much. Yeah go zoo snake day Snakes in cages day
Starting point is 00:39:21 snakes on a plane No, no, no You're in charge of Disney. What like maybe older made childhood movie are you rebooting? Oh, wow. Just one? Just the one. Tough, tough. I'm also trying to think like, if I choose this, would I reboot it as a new cartoon or as a live version of it? Because that's another aspect of it. Two off the dome that I'm considering right now, I'm going to try to think of others, but two off the dome are Peter Pan and Robin Hood.
Starting point is 00:40:07 Two of my favorites. Two classics. I think Robin Hood, though, they're both so good already. I think Peter Pan would be a really fun one to do. I know they've done it a bunch of times, but like a cool, like new age graphics, like VFX of Peter Pan would be sweet. I think if I was in charge of Disney, if we were going to reboot something, it would be literally scene for scene, word for word, but just like look better. That is a good point. I want, I don't, I don't want him to take away or add like creative liberties to
Starting point is 00:40:41 make, you know, cause I just looked up like classic Disney movies and I'm like, every single one of these has been made into now, like just the ones that came up has been made into a new like live action one, but it's just the same story. Not as good. I think if it's like the same exact thing, but just improved visually and like remastered. Oh, you want it to be like the even the same cartoon. No, no, no, no, no. I think I wouldn't mind it being like they had, they can do cool CGI stuff now. Like do that. Why not? But like, I don't know. I don't know. Maybe, maybe if I was, if I was Disney, I would just say stop. We're fine. Make new stuff. Yeah, that's fair too. Yeah. Do something original. Yeah. I also, I would make sure I'm in charge, right? You're in charge. I would make sure that there is no like extra level of like depth and darkness to the movie. I feel like that's like a lot of times when you make a new real version, like Maleficent never saw it, but did not look nearly as sweet as Snow White. Okay. I know they're not the same exact thing, but like all these Snow White things coming out. Snow White and the Huntsman, never seen it. Is that what it's called?
Starting point is 00:41:50 I feel like it's also pretty, I'm not sure. It's also a pretty common thing to just like take an old classic thing and make a horror version of it. You would say, you'd say stop. I would say stop that. I want it to be cheery, bright. I want my kids to be able to watch it as they are right now. It's not like, well, that's kind of kind of scarier
Starting point is 00:42:06 It's like no no make it a kid friendly. Yeah What's the? Snow white and seven dwarfs. Mm-hmm. You remake that now live-action Do you hire? actual dwarfs You gotta yeah, they have a union. Yeah. They wouldn't let you CGI that. What do you say to the people who say that's not fair?
Starting point is 00:42:28 It's not fair to people who aren't dwarfs. They were not ever even, you know, had the opportunity to get that role. I would say, hey, Peter Pan's hiring in a couple months. See you then. Yeah. You can be one of the Lost Boys. All right, I got one more for you guys.
Starting point is 00:42:45 You're in charge of the Grammys. What's the new award category? Just like a new category for music. Oh, I would say, help me with the wording on this, but it gets the people going. Yeah, no notes. That's great. Just like, hypest song award.
Starting point is 00:43:04 Yeah, best banger. You know, like best bop. Like something that's like this song is not the most artistically beautiful, you know, that's a great category, but there is this, it's just like, it's just like, they need to have that for Oscars too, where it's like, listen, we understand that Dumb and Dumber is not going to ever win an Oscar, but people think it's so funny. It got the people going. People need to appreciate it and it needs an award. I think they started something like that with the Golden Globes.
Starting point is 00:43:31 I don't know what they call it, but like kind of just like achievement or like, oh really where it's kind of just more like this is a movie that people have actually heard of and like loved. Yes. Even if it wasn't the most critically, I think that kind of maybe doing that, like a congeniality award for a movie. We all kind of liked him Yeah, I don't know what one it but what's that?
Starting point is 00:43:48 There's like some it maybe it's always it probably has been around for a long time But I've been seeing a lot of people getting recognized for this award recently. It's like this comedian lifetime achievement awards You've seen this no, I've seen like Adam Sandler's gotten it and Kevin Hart got it and Jerry Seinfeld. I think like all these different people Yeah, I think, um, like all these different people. Yeah. That haven't necessarily won like these incredible awards, but it's like, it's Adam Sandler. It's huge. Yeah. So same idea with the Grammys. Like, yeah, I don't know. I don't even know who it would be necessarily, but like that song gets people going. Yeah. Usher's not going to win. Maybe I don't know. Usher's probably
Starting point is 00:44:24 won some Grammys, but like, I don't know, something like that where it's just like this song gets people going. What would have won this year for best bop gets the people going award. It's the people going. Cause I do think that's a great category. What's the, you know, like when Mo Bamba came out, that song that wins, gets people going, gets people going to word of 2019. I don't even, you'd have to give me some fill in the bag, multiple choice for this one.
Starting point is 00:44:47 Cause I don't, I can't pull them off the top of my head. I'm not, I'm not, I'm, I'm a dad of four. I don't consume enough of that stuff. Um, I didn't know if KU was pumping anything fresh and new out at the games, you know, my sister sent me a video or she was sent a video. My brother-in-law was at the KU game with my dad one time. I was with my sister and she's like, oh, they're playing.
Starting point is 00:45:12 I think it's Sabrina Carpenter song that has hot in it. Hot to go. Hot to go. That's a, it's my girl. Chapel Rhone, Willard, Missouri. Chapel. Chapel. Okay.
Starting point is 00:45:23 Chapel Rhone found out I have eight mutual friends with her dad on Facebook. That's so Stratford. That's awesome. So Southwest was very, yeah. She's like, you've never heard this song? I was like, if I have, I didn't know what it was called. And then she kind of sang it and I was like, sounds kind of familiar.
Starting point is 00:45:41 Like that's a really big song that I didn't know. Yeah. That one got people going, I'd say. I don't know if it would win song that I didn't know. Yeah. So that one got people going. I'd say. I don't know if it would win though. I don't know. I can't think of one. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:45:52 Pony Club that might've got the people going award. Yeah. Anyway, what would your choice be time and what award category would you do? I've been trying to think. I think maybe, maybe just like most popular to hate song. Like people like really hated on it. And it's like, might as well just be like, Hey, I guess good job in the opposite way. Like you made the most polarizing song talked about and good job. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:46:15 Something like that could be kind of fun. Yeah. And they perform it and then just, it's just being booed. It has to be booed. Yeah. It's like tradition. Have you heard, um, what's his name? LaAngelo Ball.
Starting point is 00:46:27 He is a rapper now, do you know this? I've heard of this, but I have not heard his music at all. I think he's only come out with a couple songs. Somehow, I don't know how this works, but his first song ever was number one on Spotify. I guess I should say I don't know how this works, because people generally were liking it. I think initially people go into it like,
Starting point is 00:46:43 oh, I can't wait to hear this. And they start liking it. Um, I think I listened to it once and was like, I'm good, but it does have a familiar. It sounds like the first rap we probably ever heard. Okay. It sounds like a 2001 rap song. It's got a hook to it. It's like kind of chante. It reminds me of like, uh, you know, shaky tail feather ish, like that kind of era. I know Isaac loved it. LiAngelo Ball is the oldest. Lonzo's the oldest. Yeah, I think you're right.
Starting point is 00:47:10 He's the one not in the NBA. Yeah, I was gonna say, not, yeah, there's only three of them. Okay, that's funny. Yeah, I've heard about that, but I hadn't, hadn't given it a shot. You know, I'm missing anything too crazy, but it is kind of like a, it feels like a throwback song.
Starting point is 00:47:25 Timer. What about if you just did a Grammy for best Greenleaf performer and you could, you had a really good chance of winning a Grammy every year. Or an imps. Like it could just like eventually be like an imps family. Like yeah, the imps family is a, it's a dynasty. No one knows who we are, but it's added to the Grammys. And it's like, we're just like, we need to do as well as we can.
Starting point is 00:47:45 Yes. To try to get the Grammy. And then like, yeah, all of a sudden we are recognized on national television. Like the Jacks, Michael Jackson, Janet Jackson, you know, all these Jackson's family has all these awards, but like actually at the very top is the family for most Grammys. So people talk about, yeah, they got it. Yeah. Yeah. Speaking of Grammys, Sorry, you're no longer in charge.
Starting point is 00:48:08 The fun fact so Jacob Collier is nominated for album of the year. Okay. I think he's the only Album of the year nominee for none of the songs on his whole album to ever chart anywhere. That's crazy. Yeah Just like appreciative of the the thing Yeah, how many people get nominated? Do you have any idea? Maybe 10 20. Okay. Oh, I don't know quite a few something like that. I'm not sure cool, man Yeah What do you I need to we can either do this on the podcast or off? But I need to like get some tutorial on how to listen to him from you
Starting point is 00:48:41 Like sometimes kind of overwhelming and I feel like he's the one that's not like, oh, just listen There's one song and you'll love it. Like I feel like you gotta get a little bit right Yeah, go and it sounded like a four course meal with him, right? I don't know. Yeah, I This song sure is so different. I could my favorite current favorite of his is hideaway. Okay, you want to look that up? It's like a seven minute song. You think it's okay to just listen to by itself. Yeah. Yeah, I'd say that one for sure and like it's okay to just listen to by itself. Yeah. Yeah. I'd say that one for sure. And like, yeah, I mean, I, his whole, his album of last year, like all different sounds, all, I like most of them. Okay. I don't know. That gives you like, if you take the time to sit down and listen through it, then you can be like, okay, it doesn't, you can't be like, Oh, this is what Jake McCulley
Starting point is 00:49:21 or sounds like. Cause he does all kinds of different stuff. Yes. But you might like some, you might like add some new songs to your playlist. And he is a singer himself. Correct? He's like singing all the songs. He sings. He, and there's a lot of collaboration on that album. Right. But he's not just like a DJ, like Moby, cause like Moby was always like, every song is a little different. It's like, I don't even know what Moby, if Moby singing any of these songs. Yeah. Jacob, he can, I mean, play any instrument you could think. He's kind of crazy.
Starting point is 00:49:46 Jacob Bollier. Pretty cool. You gotten into him at all? I've listened to him. You know what I really, my favorite Jacob Bollier content is like something that's like more raw and like it's on Instagram or TikTok or something. Like watch him play this by memory or watch him sing this in eight different chords. You know, something like kind of like viral thing like that.
Starting point is 00:50:04 Kind of like a Charlie Puth. Like you appreciate the guy so much more when you watch him do that. Yeah. Yeah. Like he's also just a humble guy and like a teacher kind of. And like, yeah, he's fun to watch. Just like, cool. Yeah. That's fun. I wish, no, I mean, I don't want to consume more content necessarily, but like, I wish I could consume more content of people that are like, not like, I don't necessarily have like incredible respect for them. But then you watch other people that do respect them a lot and then you appreciate them more because of that. Like in other words, like, like there's so many athletes that I'm like, that guy's not
Starting point is 00:50:38 very good. He's frustrating me. But then like you watch him play against some terrible like pickup game or something. He's like dominating everybody. Yeah. You see that viral video of Brian Scalabrini. No, I would love to. Yeah. So it's this guy who like, he doesn't look like most NBA players. He like is a little pudgy and he's this white guy and like redhead. Yeah. Like shaved red hair just looks the opposite of NBA player and just commonly was referred to as just like a dud and this awful player. How is this guy still getting contracts?
Starting point is 00:51:08 Well, anyway, I don't know how long ago this was years ago, but he was just like, I'll play. He played against like a division one college player and just like worked him 11 to zero. I mean, what even close? Really? He did anything he wanted. He'd shoot threes. I mean, this is a, you know, he's a large guy. Yeah. Yeah. Shoot threes on him. He should jumpers on him. He take him to the hole. He did whatever he wanted. Wow. It's a great video See, that's what I'm talking about is like, yeah, so many guys. There's probably NFL players. We're like they're not doing anything
Starting point is 00:51:33 What are they doing on the field? How are quarterbacks even? Yeah, it's like it seems like they're just so bad But I guarantee you like yeah, if those guys were just like doing one-on-one drills or whatever it is, like, they are incredible. They're all just amazing athletes or same with musicians where it's like, I don't know if this guy's that good of a singer. It's like, well, just listen to this song that he just sings. Yeah. In his phone by himself. Like, yeah.
Starting point is 00:51:56 So anyway, yeah, you should watch some Scalabrini videos. Yeah. On like NBA 2k, he was a 40 overall. Wow. Out of a hundred. But yeah, then you see him playing one on one at Lifetime Fitness and they just, yeah. Absolutely working anyone who wants to face him.
Starting point is 00:52:12 That's great. All right, we're going back and forth on this one. I'm going to say if, we're gonna do Snake. So it's gonna be a little bit of a rhyming thing back and forth, but you're gonna write with me and then you're gonna set me up for a rhyme. Okay, it rhymes with Snake? It might. What is the Snake thing? thing back and forth, but you're going to write with me and then you're going to set me up for a rhyme. Okay. It arrives with snake.
Starting point is 00:52:25 It might. What is the snake thing? Oh, just like that way you don't have to rhyme every time. Got it. So I'll say, I'll say good ranchers boxes are currently, um, no, I'll start again. So I'll say you start snake and then I'll, I'll be the tail. I'll say good ranchers has chicken beef poultry and fish, but they don't sell snake. Snakes have scales and their eyelids closed vertically.
Starting point is 00:52:58 They use their tongue to help them see better. I don't think I get what we're doing. I think we're supposed to be rhyming. Okay Better okay, I'll do better. Okay. Sorry. They help them see better Have you ever tried good ranchers bratwurst with a side of cheddar Use our promo code grkc for $25 off There is no active anti-venom for king cobras. They are deadly.

Starting point is 00:55:59 and everything she's taught me, everything I learned from our wedding colors. She's gonna go based off of what she's told me. Can we see how well I do? Can we get them like after you pick one, can we have you say if you knew it or not before Rachel? Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:56:13 Like this is a BR or a before Rachel AR, I guess. Um, also I think, can we just police each other? Cause I feel these, I'm like, I think those are obscure enough, but hey, let's just be honor system Yeah, hey or yeah self-governing like hey you say like actually I think that that's not obscure enough Cool. Okay. Sure. Um, I think I won the last one which was Things we used to love. Yeah. Oh, yeah Okay, I could be wrong. I started off losing it and I checked later in the day and I was winning it
Starting point is 00:56:44 I know I lost so I started off losing it and then I checked later in the day and I was winning it. I know I lost. So I don't know who, it's probably you, Jake. Yeah, Jake wins. Okay. I don't know if the order really matters much in this one, but me, time and Brad. All right. Going this way.
Starting point is 00:56:57 I'm going to start off with my favorite crayon color of all time. Always loved it. Weird word. I never saw this word anywhere else. The word is cerulean. Wow. Good color on my list. Was it really? Yes, dude. Glad I went first. I was going to say it might make more of a difference than you think. Yeah. Great blue. Yeah. Just a really just slightly brighter blue, a little less royal
Starting point is 00:57:18 blue, a little more, more hue, different hue to it slightly. Anyway, that's, that's a before Rachel color. Always loved it in the Crayola box. Cerulean. Cerulean. Good answer. Yeah. I'm gonna say, periwinkle. Oh!
Starting point is 00:57:32 Always loved. Thought I could snag that. There was, there was little like butterflies that were that color. My mom taught me that color. Always loved that color. Wow! On my list, I had 11 colors.
Starting point is 00:57:42 I'm like, surely I'll have plenty on my list. I know, I have seven, I think. I was like, oh, that's fine. All my lists, I had 11 colors. I'm like, surely I'll have plenty on my list. I know. I have seven, I think. I was like, oh, that's fine. All right. Remove. Jeez. Periwinkle. I want, I should have saved Cerulean. No, I think I would have gone Cerulean. That would have torn me up. Yeah. All right. My first one, and this is one that I need your help on. Like, I think this is obscure enough. Carolina blue? Obscure?
Starting point is 00:58:03 No, that's obscure enough. You don't even know what like color to picture. Okay. Fair enough. Then I think half the room doesn't even know it. It's like light blue, basically. Okay. Fun. But it's not quite sky blue though. It's like got more white to it than that. Even. It's awesome. I love North Carolina's just whole get up and colors and yeah, so good probably because of Michael Jordan, but maybe just because of Carolina blue, honestly, it's just whole get up and colors and yeah, so good. Probably because of Michael Jordan, but maybe just because of Carolina blue. Honestly, it's just beautiful. That's my water bottle.
Starting point is 00:58:32 Spooked me. Spooked. And then my second one. Once again, I'm not trying to be like controversial with how obscure Kelly Green. No, that's great. Okay, Kelly Green. I think maybe this would be described. Kelly Green's a little bit lighter than this maybe. My shirt.
Starting point is 00:58:52 Steve Koop really likes Kelly Green. Yeah. I know sensitive subject, but the Eagles often have Kelly Green jerseys and they are awesome. Saquon did the reverse hurdle on the Kelly Greens. Dude, I like the Eagles. I of course I wanted the Chiefs to win, but I, the Eagles, Jalen hurts really likable
Starting point is 00:59:10 Saquon really likable. I was watching them play like not knowing much. I was like there. They look like they're playing really well. They look pretty good. They played incredibly well Tyron. Yes. So shout out Nick Sir, incredibly likable or?
Starting point is 00:59:25 He thinks so. You tell me. Okay, fair enough. I'm looking up Kelly green and I'm seeing a lot of conflicting colors cause some of them I like and some of them I really don't like. Kelly green Eagles jerseys.
Starting point is 00:59:34 How about that? Okay, so it's less, it's more muted than I'm seeing. I'm thinking a little bit. Cause I'm seeing like green screen movie set which is not a good color. No, I think it's more like, like almost like Irish green. OK, yeah, I will make sense.
Starting point is 00:59:48 I think about a nice St. Patrick's Day color. Kelly Green. That's good. It's good. I'm going to say Sage. Remind me what that one looks like. It's like a pastel green kind of sage green sage green. It feels like you ask a girl in like middle school what her favorite color is and she's like wants to be a little like different and it's like sage green but i i like the color a lot i think it's like a nice pleasant like muted color love it okay uh next i'm gonna go
Starting point is 01:00:20 with uh i'm gonna go with lavender. On my list. Really? Oh yeah. How's that compared to periwinkle? Periwinkle is more blue, and I'd say lavender is more purple. Okay.
Starting point is 01:00:33 As far as their bases, their base colors go. Okay. Lavender's like a nice light, almost like an Easter purple. Yeah, I know lavender pretty well, but I had periwinkle was also purple. But this is good, okay. Love lavender, dude. Yeah, periwinkle was also purple. But this is good. OK. Love lavender.
Starting point is 01:00:47 Yeah, periwinkles kind of. We were the best colors. All right. Thanks, Timon. Yeah. K-State has some nice lavender jerseys. Yep. That one's probably. Probably a little more post Rachel after Rachel. This next one definitely is I'm going to go with Orchid.
Starting point is 01:01:02 OK, didn't know about Or orchid until a few months ago. I think it just came out. Rachel was trying to tell me about a bridesmaids dress she got. I was like, I was trying to describe it with my dumb caveman colors. It's not, no, it's orchid. Which is what?
Starting point is 01:01:20 I wouldn't know what base color to pick. I'm thinking white. There's no way though. It's not white. It's like a- I'm picturing maybe it has orange roots. For some reason that's what I'm- No, it's more of like a,
Starting point is 01:01:31 I don't wanna use some of my other colors, but- I'm gonna look it up. Yeah, I was gonna say, let me just double check, but- Blueish, greenish? Oh, okay. No, it's in the purple pink family. Okay. But yeah, somewhere in there.
Starting point is 01:01:46 Yeah, I would say if you're like on the big color rail it's like right in between purple and pink yeah yeah yeah very good it's a nice color I was about to say purple but you could say pink too it's abstract cool racial color Okay, I'm gonna say Magenta oh God about my Jen. I just that's like the first I remember. I think that's like just barely below non obscure You're right. Yeah. Yeah, it's like just barely obscure, but it's a nice. I like the sound of the name Good color magenta feels like 90s obscure like it feels like we knew about that one for a while. Like there's another one too that was like that too. Okay. Like would you like magenta or fuchsia? That was like a big word for whatever reason. It was hard to spell. Where's the S? All right. Um, I got my last two here. Uh, my next one is going to be peach.
Starting point is 01:02:42 Ooh, good. Not obscure. It's I think that's obscure. That's fine. It's not it's not Brace the bait in price debate. I think there's a More obscure colors more obscure names. They're like the same color as peach. Okay What are they as a kid skin color? Okay. What are they? As a kid, skin color. As a kid, coloring crayons. Peach. Very probably like a...
Starting point is 01:03:08 Oh yeah, that's how you color your skin. Just like a funny thing. And I feel like, I was like, can I get the skin color crayon? It's like, well, thinking about that. It's like, well, probably shouldn't have called that. Check your privilege at the door. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:03:19 All right. Like what about like a salmon or a coral? Like would those be peachy in your eyes? No, peach is like orange I feel like salmon is more pink Isn't it well coral? Coral is similar Peach is just is sweet like peach
Starting point is 01:03:36 No, peach is great color I don't have to see peach guys peach is great. I think it's obscure enough, but okay, okay I'm good with pink. All right. This one is obscure Partially because it's obscure partially because it specifically is from the game. Halo Cobalt blue but only but the specific one when you're choosing your master chief character in Halo blue I'd say it's obscure enough. Okay, Cobalt Blue from Halo. Cobalt Blue. You remember back when you could like choose
Starting point is 01:04:08 what your character looked like? Not really, because I never owned the game. So I was always just like a guess, like. I see. Yeah, I'll be whoever, I'll be Badger. Yeah, you could make your own name and stuff. I never personalized my guy though. That was the first time I heard the word Cobalt
Starting point is 01:04:24 was in halo So it's a strong word. I see why Chevy named a car after it named their girliest car after it Unless you drive a cobalt, I bet you bench the bar Super strong. I Okay, I'm gonna say seafoam. Oh Yeah, I think it's like nicely obscure. I want to just a great color Look at that just to look just to see it with my eyes again. That's a good one. Yeah, that's good It's a nice comfort colors color
Starting point is 01:04:54 Seafoam seafoam was really nice. Seafoam was real popular when we were in college Was it I feel like it was a big like Hey, we're going to this date party. We have shirts or seafoam colored All right bet bet Kappa Delta Seafoam just inspired me. I didn't even write this down, but it's coming to mind now. Let me know if it's not too obscure I'm gonna go with teal as my last pick. I didn't want to pick it because I thought it was maybe borderline not obscure I understand I think I can do we allow it Brad listen. I understand. I don't I think it's
Starting point is 01:05:29 But whatever he's decide. What are we calling obscure cuz like I think teal is Definitely not on the normal color wheel chart. So therefore I think I think I learned the other colors when I was three or four And then or younger and then I learned teal when I was six Yeah, you know about it for a while like Bo doesn't know to you, but I learned magenta when I was three or four and then or younger and then I learned teal when I was six Yeah, you know about it for a while like Bo doesn't know to you, but I learned magenta when I was eight Yeah, make it to you. I learned Periwinkle teals a fun one. Oh, no, it feels good. It feels good. I'm allowing. Yeah. Yeah, I was good Seems like the off-brand what's going on or that? I don't know why I keep putting it back the off-brand like Crayons like had had teal in it, but Crayola doesn't seem like they cared too much about teal.
Starting point is 01:06:11 So. Rose art had some. Yeah. No, Teal's fine. I think it is a little it's a borderline, but I think if some of mine are getting on their Carolina blue feels like it was similar. Peach and teal are the same level. And so you guys are both welcome to them. I still think peach is more obscure than teal. You really think so? Don't be ridiculous Tom. Okay. Okay. So is that it? That's it. We got Jake said cerulean, lavender, orchid and teal. Time and periwinkle sage, magenta, seafoam, Brad Carolina blue, Kelly green, peach and cobalt blue from halo. That's your chief. So nice.
Starting point is 01:06:47 Oh, I have a two others that are also they're basically the same color as lavender, but I feel like I should diversify lilac. Very similar, very pretty color. Yeah. And then let's go a little mauve. What do you about mauve? I have mauve on my list. Never heard of that. Or unless I've just read it. It just came out. I've seen it wrong. Mainly for the name. I don't love
Starting point is 01:07:08 the color itself. It's kind of pinkish, isn't it? It's also like kind of a light purple, maybe a light plum. I should have gone plum. Yeah. Plum is good. I looked up mauve and I like it. I like it. Mauve is nice. First one I thought of was Robin's Egg Blue. Oh, that's great. That's a classic. Yeah. Vermilion. Kind of like a deep red. Really? Just a fun, fun word. I'm almost, some of these are just fun words. We couldn't say it in my house. Vermilion. Caramel. I love caramel colored like furniture. I didn't think about that. Brown, you know, you have any stain colors in there I thought about walnut in there It's a little bit, you know depends on what kind of wood you put it on though
Starting point is 01:07:52 And then cornflower blue. Love me some cornflower. I don't know that either. Look it up. You'd love it. So obscure That's nice, it's nice. That's a great blue really just blue in general. I had a fish named cornflower Did you yeah, how'd you find that? Yeah? The big I got like six. I got like six goldfish one time what and what but I had I Was probably like ten. I don't know how old it was right federal a snake and like I Got I got a fish tank and I was like, maybe for a birthday or something like that. I was super excited. It might've been from a garage sale. I don't know, but either way, I have a place to keep fish. So we went and got some fish and you guys know
Starting point is 01:08:35 about fish tanks, but so now I could put fish in them. That's where I'll keep my fish. And so I got like six fish. I think I named them all. But then most of them died within a week, I think. And cornflower lived for months. Oh. So. So what were the other names? Were they also? I genuinely can't remember.
Starting point is 01:08:53 I think they must have died quick enough that they just like. Yeah. Wow. I don't know. Cornflower gave great color though. If you're a girl out there and you're like, I'm going to get my nails done. I don't know. I never know what color.
Starting point is 01:09:04 I know it's not a winter color. May I throw in the rain cornflower blue your nail color. It's nice Yeah Muted, you know We like muted here. Yep. That's great. I had a good fish honorable mention espresso. Oh, sorry. Yeah Good espresso Okay, I don't know exactly. I just pictured the color of us just deep, deep brown. Yeah, dark brown.
Starting point is 01:09:31 I think it's mainly for Main Street Roasters is why I brought that up. Yes, dude. Oh, I see. I do like espresso brown. That's nice. Oh, and some hair. They have all these different hair colors. Nice. Blue black. You can get hair colors. Nice. Blue black. You can get hair color blue black, blue black.
Starting point is 01:09:51 Which one is it? It's like just dark black. Well, I don't know. Nice. Anyway, one of goldfish one time at a county fair and it died the next day. And I remember crying so hard. I named it ping because I won it by getting a ping pong ball. And you know, it was one of those games.
Starting point is 01:10:11 Yeah. Ping. I was so excited and it, I cried pretty hard. Yeah. So that's why we don't have pets anymore. Just don't want our kids to ever have any kind of hardships in life. How are you doing with the cat battle? Still battling. How are we talking about that on the podcast? I don't know if we have ever have any kind of hardships in life. How are you doing with the cat battle? Still battling.
Starting point is 01:10:26 How we talk about that on the podcast? I don't know if we have, but it's been a while, but I think you talked about them all ganging up on you. Yes, a hundred percent they did. And so far so good. It's, you know, this basements really giving me some, yeah, I'd like to, but I just, I'm just, I don't even have any time to, I can't use my fingers anymore to look up a cat. Where did I find it? I couldn't even pet it.
Starting point is 01:10:48 So yeah, still, still stay in strong. Might have to edit this part out so that time or that Catherine can't, uh, you know, bring it back up because of this conversation. But, um, yeah, so far so good. I, I, I'm not gonna say too much cause I don't want to rile Catherine up, but just know. Never gonna happen. No way, no how. Oh, yeah, they gang up on me hard though. It's hard to be, you know, staying strong, but certain things you just, they're bigger than family.
Starting point is 01:11:20 So. And not having a cat is that big thing. Yeah. Yeah Yeah, anyway, it's fun. Anything else you guys need to get off your chest Or off any body part. Yeah, I just want to give a quick shout out to the small shopping carts You know, I'm not talking about the baskets, but I'm talking about like they they've started I don't know. Maybe it's been 20 years now But it feels like they're new ish. They're like those tiny little it's like two baskets on top of each other
Starting point is 01:11:50 Yeah, there's a nice on whipping around those corners you yeah, it's like the sports car of shopping carts Yeah, and as a as a guy that doesn't do much grocery shopping. That's almost all I ever need and so the other day, you know, I was getting some drinks for the Super Bowl party and Just whipped around in that little small shopping cart. And I was like, these need to be more appreciated than they are. I love those. So I'm with you. Right?
Starting point is 01:12:14 So good. Because the baskets, sometimes you get some milk. That's a heavy basket. Yeah. You know? Yeah. You can't do liquids in a basket. Can't do liquids in a basket.
Starting point is 01:12:24 It's gonna get heavy quick. We've always said that. So shout out to Small Shopping Carts. I have that. I don't think I brought this up on the podcast, but I went to the grocery store last week and right when I walk in, I'm looking at like this kind of protein bar section and a woman just like comes up and kind of interesting looking,
Starting point is 01:12:41 but either way it just starts off super friendly. Just like, man, what a great day it is here in this grocery store, but man, how do you ever pick from all these options? And I don't know her at all, but it comes in hot. I'm like, I know, right? They did, every time you come in, they got something new.
Starting point is 01:12:58 And she's like, they need to do a study to figure out how we're supposed to choose from all these options. And I was like, yeah, they're just so, it's crazy. It's crazy. And she said, I just, every time I'm in here, I end up getting so much stuff and I don't know why I do it. And so I said, well, little something I do,
Starting point is 01:13:17 I said to make sure I don't pick up too much stuff. I said, I don't even use a shopping cart. Like today I'm only in here to get like three things. So no cart. And she goes, I've rocked her world shopping cart. Like today I'm all in here to get like three things. So no cart. And she goes, I rocked her world. She's like, oh my gosh. Genius. No shopping cart.
Starting point is 01:13:32 She's like, put them in your hands. She's like, that is so good, young man. That is so good. And then she walked away. She's like, all right, have a nice day. And I was like, oh, that was kind of a funny interaction. I'm looking through, you know, checking nutrition facts, getting shredded. And then I hear her come back. She's like, no, she would kind of a funny interaction. I'm looking through, you know, checking nutrition facts, getting shredded.
Starting point is 01:13:45 And then I hear her come back. She said, no, she would walk back. She was no shopping. That's genius. Why didn't I think of that? She like left and come back. Shoves her shopping cart down the aisle. I don't need it.
Starting point is 01:13:56 I don't need this anymore. You hear that? I'm not afraid. Yeah. So just a really wholesome, fun interaction. But yeah, I was really, had a little quick little 20 second Ted talk at Price Chopper the other day. So yeah, the way that you, or buy less is by just having less stuff.
Starting point is 01:14:14 Either get stronger or yeah, just don't get more stuff. That's amazing. Love it. Yeah. Smart. I have this randomly written down. Lots of new babies coming into the world. Got ghosty Jordan Algy just had a baby. Our friend Justin, our friend Sam just had baby,
Starting point is 01:14:30 uh, within like the last week. So shout out to those guys. Congrats on being dads. It's fun times. Um, and then yeah, nothing really funny or like whatever about this, but we had our baby dedication for Henry. It was just sweet time. Fun time this past week with the in-laws. And it was just great. My father-in-law especially, but both of them were very kind about the basement. Wow, it looks great.
Starting point is 01:14:56 I think he knows how hard of work it can be to do a house project. He built like this massive deck back in the day for Catherine's family. So I think he's just like very complimentary of like, cause I don't think it was like an easy, it wasn't just like, Oh, he's just a builder. He'll build this deck. It was like a labor of love kind of thing. So I think he was just like, good job, Brad. This looks incredible. You know, whatever. So just fun having them in town and yeah, just a, just a fun time. I, I, I'm thankful. in town and, um, yeah, just a, just a fun time. I, I, I'm thankful as are you. I know that we enjoy our in-laws. Like that's so easy. So awesome. Like, I think so often you
Starting point is 01:15:31 hear like the jokes are like, Oh, the in-laws are coming to town. Oh, great. My mother-in-law bubble. It's like, I'm so thankful that I, I am excited when Catherine talks to her mom, you know, it's not like, Oh geez,, jeez, your mom's not gonna support me or whatever. So anyway, just a blessing. And the baby dedication was great. We did the baby dedication, then straight from there went to the upward game down the hall,
Starting point is 01:15:54 basically at our church. And so we were all super dressed up, compared to everybody else there, like sweat. There were also like in sweats and rosies and this dress with the cardigan on and everything. And they're probably like, who are these Amish people? Yeah, they must not be sports fans. They don't really get it.
Starting point is 01:16:09 Let's not realize that it's not baseball in the 1930s. You don't have to dress like that. But anyway, it was a lot of fun and good time. So that's about it. Oh, and I have some wins if you if you don't have anything else. But yeah, you can do wins of the week. Win of the week. Main one is, well, yeah, those things I said.
Starting point is 01:16:32 Small shopping carts, great. But I returned a bunch of items to Home Depot from like that I didn't end up using for the project or whatever. And so it feels like I made a bunch of money. That's a great win. Boy math. Yes, it's like, and I truly quote unquote did make money,
Starting point is 01:16:51 but it was awesome. Same with like Bass Pro Shop. I was like, it was like an addiction of like, what else can I return? What do I need to return? I started my day making money. Let's keep this up. What else can I return?
Starting point is 01:17:01 Let's get things out of the house. This is great. So also learned that I always knew that if you didn't have receipts for stuff, you could just get store credit at Home Depot. But if you do it enough times, they start thinking that you're like fraud, like fraudulent. And so I got to find a receipts for some of my stuff. Cause I paid in cash for some stuff and I, so I don't have it on the credit card. And so, yeah, like 70 dollars, I need to find a receipt for right now. It's kind of, you know, living over my head with these lights that I don't need anymore. But yeah, it was a huge win.
Starting point is 01:17:37 It's like hundreds of dollars worth of returns, which is great. Good job making that money. Making that paper. And paper. I think my one of the week is going to be the balance and the, I'm coming up with this as I say it now, but just like the, yeah, I think the balance that comes with like having a wife, the unintended or like unforeseen like benefits
Starting point is 01:18:01 besides just like general, just like memory making and companionship, whatever. Just like, I talked about Monday's episode, but this week has just been busier than most, just managing so much. I feel like I have so much to do constantly. And yesterday we had a bunch of snow and Rachel, all she wanted to do, she's like,
Starting point is 01:18:15 I just wanna go for like a winter walk. I love like the sky and the snow when it's wintery outside. And so yeah, I was like, you know what? Like, it still sounds kind of fun, but I'm, and I know how much stuff I have to do right now. And like, and just, I mean, it takes 10, 15 minutes just to get bottled up. The wind chill was like 11 yesterday
Starting point is 01:18:34 and we're getting all this stuff. And then we went on the walk and just had so much fun. And it was just like, it's probably 45 minutes. Didn't even take that long. But it was like, it was great to get fresh air. It was great to just chat and just chill for a little bit. It was the only time I left the house yesterday. I never drove anywhere.
Starting point is 01:18:49 It's like, I needed to get out of the house. Yeah, just like, yeah, you kind of take a break. I mean, that's, yeah, it's awesome. Yeah. So yeah, that was really fun. And then we were just goofing around when I got her back to the house. Like we were just walking and just so much snow.
Starting point is 01:19:01 I was just like, cause I'm not, I didn't grow up with brothers. I don't ever rough house with anyone. It doesn't come naturally to me, but I was like, man, it's just so tempting to like, just shove you down right now. And Rachel was like, oh yeah. And also when you start wrestling in front of our lot,
Starting point is 01:19:17 you can go see it. Like there's so many footprints like out in front of our front door right now. And yeah, we just kind of wrestled around for like the first time in our lives together and took her to the ground. And then we realized like, oh my gosh, we have a ring doorbell.
Starting point is 01:19:31 That would be so funny to look back at that. Ring only records. This is so annoying. It's like once there's activity, it'll record for like 30 seconds. And then it's just like, well, if it was gonna happen, it was gonna happen. So I guess it doesn't record the whole time there's activity.
Starting point is 01:19:44 It just starts a timer. I'm a fraudulent guy. That's good to know. I'll steal some stuff from you then. Yeah. Wait 30 seconds. Or just don't buy rank. Figure out a camera that actually records the whole time there's activity.
Starting point is 01:19:53 Doesn't that seem like it should? Yeah, 100%. The whole time someone's in front of your house, keep recording. Maybe there's a setting. Maybe there's a setting. But yeah, that seems like 100%. Like if it's still detecting movement, especially when it's like a girl getting wrestled to the ground
Starting point is 01:20:06 It's like I mean you saw 30 seconds. That's enough to play That's good Wow. Yeah. So yeah the balance that comes with living with Rachel's great That's what I love it did sweet good with your walk freezing. No. Yeah, I Just like made a fairly easy $400 this week, which just kind of just like a fun, random, not common thing. I like know this guy who's like a kind of established like DP like cinematographer. I think I mentioned he like does stuff with the chief salon and whatever. Oh yeah. But he just like has this, his dad has this ministry where they just like do this event for a couple hours, sometimes
Starting point is 01:20:45 Tuesday mornings. And he was like, I need to film it, but I'm out of town. So you want to like film it and like give me the footage. So I just like, well, I had to wake up like five AM, which was like, okay, whatever. But then just like film for a couple hours, send the footage and got 400 bucks. Sweet. That's a win. Yeah. Heck yeah. Yeah. You didn't even have to edit it. I was like, I gotta get get more stuff like this Yeah, right. Yeah, that was fun. Sweet, dude Yeah, I love those. Yeah, it's like I should not be getting paid this much. But okay, let's do it. That's fun Yep, Congrats, man. Thanks. Comment of the week. Yes mine

But she said, this ghosty community is just so cool. I've been a ghosty for about four years. I started listening when my son was born and was up in the night a lot and needed to stay awake. I'm about to have my second baby being induced tomorrow.
Starting point is 01:21:41 And my parents were originally supposed to come and take care of my four year old and stay for a week to help and meet sweet baby boy. Well, we found out two weeks ago that my mom has breast cancer. She had to have surgery this past Monday, which means they won't be able to come right away. I asked for prayers on the Holy Ghosties FB page for my mom's surgery and my upcoming delivery.
Starting point is 01:21:58 So many people said they were praying. And then one ghostie venmoed me so we could order dinner after having this baby. It's incredible to me how this, I'm sorry.
