Jake, I got stabbed in the face by a house plant this week.
Oh my gosh. Just straight up right in the eye.
What's his name? I didn't ask. I ran away. I fled.
Yeah. Fight or flight. Yeah. Look up. I think it's called a snake
plant or something like that. Snake house plant. Something like that.
It's got these little sharp things. They're in the Garden of Eden, bro.
Bro. Yeah, dog. Yeah, dog. It hurt, dog. Right in my eye, dog. Right in this Garden of Eden. To the eye? Bro. Yeah, dog. Yeah, dog.
It hurt, dog.
Right in my eye, dog.
Right in this eye, dog.
How's your water line?
I don't know, man.
Gone now.
Now that I lost it to the frigging...
Kiss a goodbye, Smalls.
I don't remember.
I think it was like, it was some really inconsequential thing on the ground that I was like, but I'm
going to, you know, if I'm not going to pick it up, Catherine's got to pick it up. She's not
going to pick it up. No one's going to pick it up. So I was like, I'm gonna pick this up.
And I leaned over not recognizing that there was a freaking snake plant there
genuinely just, it was, it was like, it was like, I went as fast into it as I could possibly go.
Oh, like, imagine this is it. I see it. Like, Oh, there's something on the ground.
possibly go. Like imagine this is it, and I see it.
Like, oh, there's something on the ground.
Like boom, right into it, dude.
And I was just like, oh my gosh.
Oh, and the saving grace of living a life
that has stuff like that happen to you
when you have a podcast is like,
well, I guess I'll write down for the podcast
when you talk about it then.
I can tell time about it.
I hate that stuff when you're like, this is my fault.
100%. That is so my fault.
Why was I so weirdly aggressive to bend down and get that?
What's my problem?
Anytime I stub my toe, I'm like, just.
Why'd you do that?
Just gotta go to bed.
Yes, dude.
I'm not gonna get anything done today.
Yeah, it's like that office episode
where Jim bites his tongue.
He's like, Pam, we're going home.
Uh oh, ooh, I think this type means that it's going down with some random thoughts
and white meat 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 Happy Wednesday everybody. We're back with another episode of Ghostbusters podcast. Happy
Wednesday everybody. Hey, Timon say it. Happy Wednesday everybody. Timon right now has a
setup that would be, would be suitable for the king. My gosh.
Take a picture of what you're seeing right now, Jake. I mean, it's just unbelievable.
Like, time is like, you know what?
I think today I need the star treatment here.
He's tired, he's got a little shadow
on the right side of his face.
He's like, not anymore.
They get to see the whole face.
Everyone make sure you go and watch our video of this one
and make sure that you compliment Time on how good he looks. Tywin's you go and watch our video. This one, make sure that you compliment time. I don't have a good, he looks evenly lit.
And I evenly like it. Yeah. Evenly loving it. That's what you got to say.
You have to. Yeah. I mean that thing, like I can barely see time. I know
timing. People are like, timing is the star of the show. Yeah. What Brad means by fit for a king
is I moved to light that was over there just a little bit
And it's five feet up in the air. That's fair. I did raise it up a little bit elevated. Yeah
For a king man
Anyway, what's going on with you guys? So me personally what's going on guys?
Dude, this is ever happened to you. I first
First time that I made this mistake, I started unloading
the dishwasher.
End of story, right?
Guy problems.
No, I'm just kidding.
I started learning the dishwasher and after I get, I don't know, 40% of the way done,
who's calling?
Big dog, you're on the podcast.
Oh, what'd it do? Big dog you're on the podcast
All of a sudden you're like not gonna talk Jensen here hi buddy
Was recording Jake was getting ready to say something I don't know it was gonna be hilarious
Just hilarious high jinx today. Yeah, dude, you should see Tymon's setup, dude.
He's got this crazy huge light on him.
He's really, yeah, it's wild.
No.
Yeah.
I poked myself in the face with a plant.
Oh my gosh.
How tiny is he getting called?
Connect the calls.
It was a house plant.
It just stabbed me right in the eye. It was no fun
Yeah, it was the whole eye the whole ball
Hey happy late
Yeah, that's right. Happy late birthday brother
30 years old. 30 years old, wow.
Congrats, man.
Jacob, how are we doing, buddy?
I missed you last time.
I missed you last time, too.
You were in China.
What's that?
Uh-oh.
You were in China?
Last time?
Last time.
Last time, yeah.
Sorry, he was on the pod while you were in China.
Oh, that's what he's referring to.
Yeah.
Sorry I went to China.
I'm doing well. I'm doing better than ever
Yeah, but you did go to Africa recently with a
German guy an Egyptian guy and somebody it was like the most random the United Nations. What was it fourth country?
Maybe that's just funny enough to me. He's like just imagining that
Yeah, right a German a Jensen and a blonde going to Tanzania
So multicultural, that's right. Wait, I just thought nah, no, I shouldn't say the podcast
Well, speaking of blondes, I told you that story off the podcast.
Oh yeah. Yeah.
Is that for the fun?
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
We'll tell you later.
Just got a funny story for you.
You guys are crazy.
I'll try to give you a call later today if you're available.
Okay. Okay. Okay.
See you. Love you.
Bye.
See you David Spade.
Is that what he sounds like? I feel like he does. Yeah. That's funny.
All right.
Do you remember what you were going to say?
Oh, yes.
I'm learning the dishwasher.
Got about halfway through and realized, oh crap, these have been dirty the whole time.
Oh, it's been boozled halfway through.
There is nothing that'll test your short term memory.
Like realizing you unloaded dirty dishes.
Cause then you got to remember everything.
Oh, I see.
You like put them back.
Yeah. I put knives in the knife. I put knives in the knife. your short-term memory, like realizing you unloaded dirty dishes, because then you gotta remember everything.
Oh, I see, because you like put them back.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I put knives in the knife.
Sheath.
Knife sheath.
Yeah.
What's that called?
Knife box.
Knife block, yeah.
Knife block, that sounds right.
Yeah.
So I gotta remember specifically which knives I put in,
you know, glasses, plates, other crud,
and it was a good test.
I think I got probably 95% of it right.
I might've missed a spoon in there.
Really?
I don't know when the stack started.
Yeah, like all of a sudden you go get a spoon next time
and there's like three that are stuck together.
It's like, I think those were some.
Yeah, but it's a good, I would recommend everyone do it.
Like every six months, it's like a good litmus test.
Like how good is my short-term memory?
Yeah, your recall.
Unload a thing of dirty dishes and see if you can do it like every six months. It's like a good litmus test. Like how good is my short-term memory? Yeah, you're recall unload a thing of dirty dishes and see if you can do it again. See
Personality timing. Are you thinking like
Like with me if I didn't know which knife I would just put like three knives in there just like I'll just be like
I'm not gonna I'm not gonna think too much about this. Yeah, this is rather be safe than sorry kind of thing
I like I mean, it's yeah
It's better that I get the dirty one and also like,
doesn't hurt if they're cleaned again,
the ones that are clean.
Yeah. That's my thought process.
That makes rational sense.
I think I was just like, I want to,
I want to get a hundred percent on this test.
Yes. I like that though.
Yeah, that's good.
And I might've, I'll ask God.
Hey God, it's me, Jake.
What did, just the other day,
Rachel was like, first thing I asked when I get to heaven, what was it?
I think it was something weird.
Like she just wants to see a video.
Oh, I know what it was.
She said, we were talking, so Rachel, I love this trend
where it's like, it's this TikTok trend
where a girl will post a picture of her
when she's 10 years old in a limited two shirt,
pigtails and braces.
And the caption is like,
this is me when this was my favorite song.
And then just like some yin yang twin song
is playing about her.
It's just kind of funny.
It's like everyone's listening to this crazy music
at an early age.
So we think that's a funny trend.
And she's like, what would that have been for you?
Like, what were you listening to in like seventh grade?
I was like, oh, still nothing but 88.3, the wind, you know?
So then the whole ride home, I just played her different music. And I think that was what she's like, oh, still nothing but 88.3, the wind, you know? So then the whole ride home,
I just played her different music.
And I think that was what she's like,
I don't know how God works, but like,
if he would let me, like, I would do anything
to see seventh grade Jake in the back of the minivan,
just like listening to Skillet.
100%. While my mom was driving the van.
And I've just like made her listen to Skillet.
That's what Rachel wants to see more than anything.
Like, oh, I want to see that so bad.
Yes.
Nothing but Family Force V, Hawk Nelson, skillet on rotation until we get to Springfield.
That sounds awesome.
Just in general, it's like I would love to just see more either of myself or of other people.
Like, what were they like back then?
Yeah.
How similar versus how different, you know?
In every phase.
Like, even if it was like,
how did Jake and I interact when you were doing K-Life stuff?
Yes, us 10 years ago.
Or it's like, I wanna see Rachel,
how she treated her parents when she was six.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You know, because I think she was just like,
this hyper, just like, lunatic, basically.
Or I think she was like, just pretty unbridled at home,
like really good kid elsewhere, but at home,
which is like getting picked on, picking on her brother.
She was the family, just like jester,
just like entertaining them.
Like, oh, that sounds fun.
Really? Yeah.
Yeah, but it was fun.
We went down memory lane,
like the whole ride back from volleyball,
I just played her different music from like middle school and there'd be some, I'm like,
all right, this is one of my favorites. This one's embarrassing. I can already imagine
how it goes. But then there's others was like, she might like this one. She did not. But
I was like, Oh, you might kind of, this one's kind of quieter.
Dude. Yeah. I remember at the pheasant hunt, there were two songs specifically that were
like, these songs are still unbelievable. Uh, Irene by Toby Mack.
And uh, like Isaac was like, dude, what's this song? Yes. He never heard it. And then, uh,
take my hand by Sean McDonald. That one, that one really, the promise that I'm you know,
what a standard. I cannot do it on my own. It was, it was just like, these songs are amazing for
like, I liked them back then,
I'm still real into them right now.
Yeah.
I tried to play her some that I was like,
that I love, like some Hawkenells,
like these are some of my favorite Hawkenelson songs
and they're not, they didn't really hold up.
But then I tried to find some like older audio adrenaline
stuff that is like a little softer.
I was like, she might like Ocean Floor.
I don't know that one.
Okay. Sorry.
Maybe I do, but I don't know how it goes.
You see it?
Take my hand.
It's probably.
You have a job.
What is it?
Yes.
Yes.
It's very similar.
But that's what Rachel wants to see when she gets to heaven.
Yeah, Catherine.
It is fun to like, like when you get in like a little bit
of a groove, like you think of one song
and then that makes you think of another song that all of a sudden
it like opens the floodgates.
Kind of like, like your Audi comes in. You're like, oh my gosh,
I've lost memories now. I feel like yeah, like Catherine will get in that mood sometimes and
sometimes she'll just play songs. I'm like, you and I were different in high school. Like these
songs are just like really emotional. Like, yeah, or like kind of that punk rocky phase of like,
really emotional, like, yeah. Or like kind of that punk rocky phase of like, whatever.
Still Christian?
No, I mean, maybe sometimes.
Barlow Girl.
I'm not sure.
Building 429.
I think the ones I'm thinking of are like, no,
like what's the song.
Super Chick.
Take me away.
You know that song?
Yeah, yeah.
Who is that?
30 Seconds to Mars?
I don't know.
I didn't listen to that stuff.
I don't know how long it took them.
Take me away.
The Great Escape, My Chemical Romance.
Is it?
I'm just saying, I don't know.
Take it back something.
Take it back some hay.
What did we say this song's called?
Oh, look it up.
I just said it.
The Great Escape.
1963 film.
Oh, that's what it is.
Great film.
Dude, I've actually, flashback,
I forgot I did a whole project on this.
These guys that like dug their way out of this camp.
Yeah, yeah, Steve McQueen.
All right, so the song.
Boys Like Girls.
Oh, see that, like that kind of thing would never,
and like even when she played it today, it would just be like, I would just kind of like bob my head along. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, that one never came your way
I mean I kind of knew it but I was just like like she really wanted to get into it with me kind of like
Probably sounds like you were trying to get with like you like the song think this real it's like this isn't I'm not vibing with
This one very much
What was your introduction to secular music?
No, I mean, you know, I was the baby of my family.
So like birth, probably Nellie and you know, four years old,
secular music.
I mean, I remember loving the Beatles as a young, young kid.
Like my dad, like we listened to all our oldies 95,
old night, it was on 94.9,
but they called it oldies 95.
Yeah, it's kind of interesting.
So that's probably my intro like that.
And I remember we listened, there was a tape.
My aunt had a tape of Beach Boys, like greatest hits on the way.
And we'd always listen to it on the way down to the lake.
So those are some of the good memories of like Beach Boys and Beatles were probably like the
first secular music.
But yeah, then my sisters, you know, listen to stuff.
I listen to it with them.
Yeah.
So I was probably listening to stuff
10 years before you were.
Oh, I'm sure.
I mean, I've talked about it.
I don't know the words to like Backstreet Boys, Nelly,
like all that stuff, like that was before.
I will say my dad let a few slip through the cracks
on purpose, I probably mentioned this,
but from our house to like Stratford School,
gymnasium, whatever, it was like a five minute drive.
Until before every like middle school basketball game,
every middle school football game, didn't matter.
On the way to the games, he would play a cassette
that was I think ACDC's greatest hits.
We just listened to the same two songs.
Shook Me All Night Long and Back in Black.
We just listened to those two songs before every game.
That was all I had.
I had that and like Stephen Chris Chapman.
Love it, love it.
But then going into high school
was when it finally like broke.
And that summer, summer of 2006 was Soulja Boy.
Okay.
That was like my introduction into like, you know,
the rest of music.
And I was like, whoa, there was that.
It was like T-Pain, DJ Unk, remember him?
What was his song?
Walk It Out and Two Step for the two big ones.
Oh yeah, he was both those?
Yeah, he came in firing.
DJ Unk was doing all right for a second there.
He did all right.
Was a chameleon air that same time?
That was maybe a year or two later.
Okay.
Cause I think I was driving by then, but then,
oh, Akon, Akon went on a roll while we were in high school.
He was everywhere.
Akon and Lil Wayne.
Couldn't go anywhere without him.
Yeah, that's crazy.
Yeah.
I did see some stuff.
I think in like 2008, Lil Wayne was featured
in like 400 songs or something.
Like he recorded more songs than there were days.
Yeah, well, he also came out with that massive album CD
thing, didn't he?
Like, I don't remember that, but I remember he just like,
he said yes to, it seemed like every feature. It's like, yeah,, I'll do that little Wayne's the third verse on every song this year. Yeah
What are you hearing? What is it boy trouble?
airplane
too close
Go get point. Yeah
Anyway, that's music that's been been music. What got us on that?
Oh, Rachel.
Heaven.
How do we even get there though?
Doesn't matter.
So those were obsessions back when you were a teenager.
What are some current obsessions?
Let's do a little segment.
We're calling it current obsessions.
Yeah.
Do you have any current obsessions?
Hey, here's the current obsessions.
Right now, my current obsession,
one of them is listening to Theo Vaughn.
This is a guy, you too?
Kind of adjacent, yes.
You guys too?
Go ahead.
This is a guy who I've been following on Instagram
for years, truly only watching the clips of his podcast.
I mean like, dude, this guy is great.
I really enjoy him, he's really funny.
And then I've now been, I'm in a podcast rhythm
where I actually listen to his podcasts and he's incredible.
I think he's so, so talented.
Really enjoy his podcast.
I think he's really funny.
Recent episode, he had Chad Ocho-Sinko,
John's on there.
And they are just cut from the same cloth where,
I mean, similar, but Ocho-Sinko is just a guy,
he's a, you know, this is a guy I met back in the day.
I filmed with him.
And he's always been interesting,
this is an NFL player.
He was very much known as like a big personality
before there was even kind of celebrated in the NFL.
I feel like he was a little ahead of his time.
Yeah, it was kind of like a negative big personality.
Yes, they were like trying to like suppress it,
but he's always been out there like on record,
never done drugs, never done alcohol, but eats McDonald's all the time
Yes, like this amazing athlete was 0% body fat somehow super fast like yes
Try it out for ML soccer like Major League Soccer. Yeah, he's really good soccer player. I think he did like some track and field
His Instagram used to be a lot more interesting now. He's like a TV personality is bigger
But I ran out he would just post a picture of like Orca whales, just killer whales,
and just this long caption,
just like the dude just loves whales and just fascinating.
Hearing him talk about, so he has like eight kids
with like, I don't know how many different women,
but all of them were like by design,
which doesn't sound like it, but he's like,
every single woman that he's had a kid with
is like a division one athlete.
And he's like, I bred my kids to be athletes. It is like hearing him talk about the strategy
It's just like the Avon had some hilarious responses to that. Yes, they get talking about like
Quarter horse boy
Dang just get out of the bag the bar just oh boy
Chad Johnson said he won't like date a woman
Unless she's already a mother and the I was like, why is that?
He's like one you get to see like if she already is a good mother and two
He's like I dated models who don't have kids. They don't got no food in the house
Theos like oh, yeah, man, I'll wake up middle of the night, I'll sleep with a
girl with half a lunchable in my mouth.
That's the way to do it, boy.
That's how you do it.
It's just like, I just think even though he's one of the biggest podcasters in the world,
I mean, he got Trump on his podcast, I still think people are not appreciating how talented
you have to be like he is making up 90% of everything you hear.
It's made up on the spot and he's saying, Oh, I knew a guy once.
Oh, you know, I grew up with a guy.
All of it's made up.
You think?
And I think it needs to be more appreciated.
90% of it's made up.
Really?
Yeah.
Okay.
I didn't know.
I've always curious about that.
I've like, like, has he said that or is it just like, no, this is just my own theory,
but I feel like I have a good sense of these things.
Yeah.
He's just, I think I'm with you incredible at improvising
It seems it's gotta be because it's like there's nobody that's that you can't remember this many stories
It's like that has this many stories like yeah, not every single part of your life had to be that interesting
I remember I remember when a third grade, you know, mr. Thompson's class. I just saw a clip the other day
He was like, yeah, I had a, I'm gonna walk with a guy,
or he lost half, he lost his leg, or maybe half his leg,
I don't know, he might've been faking it, it's hard to tell.
And the other guy goes, CGI?
He goes, I don't know what his name was.
I didn't catch his name.
Have you watched his standup?
Yeah, it's not quite as good.
Some of these guys who are incredible podcasters, Tim Dillon, Theo Vaughn, it's like you expect
the stand up to be like way better, but it's kind of like the same.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Which is like, this is, I think it just works better for like a podcast format.
It's almost like if he just did a podcast live would be better as a stand up, just go
on a podcast tour.
Like that CGI joke is a funny joke.
Yes.
Like for stand up, like, um, all right. You have that CGI joke is a funny joke. Yes. Like for standup.
Like, all right.
He did have a closing joke that I really appreciated.
It had nothing to do with anything else
he was talking about.
He just has a long pause and he's like, anyway,
my cousin got bit by a gay guy.
Everyone kind of laughed and he goes, so we'll see.
Thank you, my name is, like, that's it.
That's the whole joke.
He closed his special with that.
I think it's pretty funny.
See ya.
Yeah.
But it's also like, oh, you might have said that on your podcast or two.
Yeah, sure.
Maybe it's, yeah, maybe it's like his calling card now.
You know, the Avon's producer is insane.
I he's just so fast.
I think he like can read people's minds like before they like, he looks things up so fast.
Do you think they're like editing out some of the fluff?
I think that I'm sure it like is comes up on screen and post before he looks things up so fast. Do you think they're like editing out some of the fluff? I think that, I'm sure like it comes up on screen and post
before he looks it up, but like even like,
they'll mention something and immediately,
oh yeah, this thing, like it's pretty crazy.
Like, see I just want to recently,
I don't know if it's a new guy,
cause I don't listen to it enough,
but they had a new guy on, or sorry,
I don't know if it's a new guy.
Caleb Presley was the guest,
and I swear the producer didn't look anything up
the whole time, they were like kind of making fun of us to his face, like, dude, you have a computer, I don't know if it's a new guy. Caleb Presley was the guest, and I swear the producer didn't look anything up
the whole time.
They were like kind of making fun of us to his face.
Like, dude, you have a computer, do something.
But it became a funny bit of the show.
Anyway, current obsession, Theovon.
I'll go next,
because my current obsession is very adjacent to that.
It's more overarching than this,
but have you seen the,
I'm sure you have,
the AI generated baby reenactments of videos.
In my algorithm. Dude. Love those things obsessed with them.
How do we do that for us? I
Would be so honored honestly take our Instagram clips baby. If I am oh my gosh
And have you seen the the O'Von ones? Yeah, so we did like furrow is brown make them frown
So funny dude like every time and I haven't shown Catherine yet
Like because I think I kind of discovered while she was in Texas. I'm like, she would love these dude. Like,
I think so. I mean, they look just like Henry half the time. And so that's what it is. It's like,
like imagine like Henry saying, you know, but you know, God dang,
you know, they're just so funny. Uh, Every time, like every time I've watched one for
anybody that they've done them to, I just think that is amazing. So current obsession,
I don't think I've ever skipped past one yet. Especially Theo Vought. Cause I've seen, they
tried to do Joe Rogan and he's got like a full set of teeth and he's bald and it's a
little harder to look at. Oh really? I haven't seen those. I'm trying to think of, I feel
like I've seen ones for like NBA, like on TNT or something
before or something like that.
Anyway, but that's my current obsession is those baby adult videos.
Yeah.
This is adjacent to, I guess, I've been listening to John Chris podcast a lot.
And I'm like, I'm like keeping up.
Yeah.
That was a great episode.
Yeah.
I've just been keeping up.
It's like, I haven't, it's been a while since I found the new podcast and I'm like
listening regularly and it's great. Yeah. Shout found a new podcast and I'm like listening regularly. And it's great.
Yeah. Shout out to them. They're good job.
Podcast boys. You know, you gotta keep a ear to the ground and the community.
What are they doing over here?
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I liked the Ben Rector episode a lot. Yeah. It's kind of interesting them
talking about all the, I don't know, nuances of music and all that stuff. But any, any
really interesting fun facts you didn't try to
remember?
I don't know. I mean, no, this is not that interesting,
but like talking about like writing for tick tock,
like writing music for tick tock, essentially it was like a
small thing they talked about, but like some people,
like you could tell when Ben Rector did it, the joy album,
in my head, like, like my best life.
He's like, yeah, sometimes people do that.
I was like, you do that. Like in my head, I thought like, best life. He's like, yeah, sometimes people do that. I was like, you do that.
Like in my head, I thought like, like he has a song right now.
It's like, you are my, you are my, you are my favorite person.
And I'm like, that's, that's a, that's a real song.
Dude, I was having my own little Mandela effect go on.
When I heard that song, I was like, no, this isn't new.
You've already made this.
And I was like, no, he's saying this is a new single.
I'm like, am I taking crazy pills? I know I've heard that song before, but isn't new. You've already made this. And I was like, no, he's saying this is a new single. I'm like, am I taking crazy pills?
I know I've heard that song before, but I guess not.
Probably similar to some of those you've heard.
I mean, that one, yeah, he like hosted a challenge
of like, make your video to this.
Sure, yeah.
Which, yeah, it's like, okay.
But that was actually interesting.
So he just in general talked about comedians
versus musicians and how social media
is not made for a musician It's made for comedians.
Yeah.
Like it's really hard as a musician to like do social media.
Well, I say because musicians, you make one good album and you don't have to do anything
else your whole life.
Kind of.
Yeah.
You can go on tour with that one album.
Yeah.
Over and over and over again.
Yeah.
He was just talking about like, it's just hard to like gain
people's attention that quickly, you know, post or whatever,
which he does. I think he does a pretty good job on social media.
He does those like little like songs that are just like a joke
basically. Yeah. But anyway, I thought it was good.
Anything else you can remember?
Yeah. What else did he talk like with the social media thing?
I think he was saying like comedians, you can just like, you can tell a full joke, but like, yes, you aren't supposed to spoil the whole song.
Right.
Like that type of thing.
It's like, yeah, I think that's what he was saying.
I don't know.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Good boy.
Good boy.
So that's one of your current obsessions.
Yeah.
This one, my, you know, hey, call it lame, call it, we know, whatever.
But I'm obsessed with pickleball.
I love, I love playing it.
It's not just like work.
It's like, man, I just, I love, I love thinking about pickleball.
I love playing pickleball.
I love getting better.
I love everything about it.
That crazy.
I'm just all in.
I was hanging out with Isaac yesterday and he's like, I really want to start
doing more drills for pickleball.
And I'm like, that's crazy.
We're drinking the Kool-Aid, man.
I was like, did you ever think you were going to say that?
Like, you just want to go to like,
because he's got that ball machine at life.
Like Isaac's working for a lifetime now for pickleball
stuff.
And he's got that ball machine.
He's like, I just want to go and just hit balls, do drills.
I was like, that's wild.
Like, good for you.
I'm not saying like it's a bad day, but it's like,
who would have thought that you were like going to do the same thing for pickleball you do for like basketball
It's crazy baseball or football. It just feels more lame, you know, but we're kind of at a point
It's like we're not gonna get better unless you do that like, you know playing rec only takes you so far
It's like do we want to get better? We're gonna have to like yeah, I'm freaking
practice
Don't let anyone see.
It is funny.
Oh baby, I'm excited to talk about Main Street Roasters.
Woo!
Great job.
You too?
You excited?
I'll toast to that.
Can I make a toast?
Yeah, go ahead.
The human tongue.
It can be, you know, the Bible says it's important.
And I'm paraphrasing.
I think the Bible says James says the tongue.
That's important. Don't doubt it.
Yeah, it's like the what of a ship.
The rudder. Yes.
The bridle of the horse.
It's the bridegroom of the ship.
Yes. Bride rudder.

Good beans bro. I like my tongue and it likes me back. That's right.
You lick that coffee and it rewards you for it.
Yes it does.

You've done this new thing with the coffee where you lick it like a cat.
Ever since you've been trying to scrape it.
Yeah.
You sip and you lick like a cat.
Have you ever seen a dog drink in slow motion?

Yeah.

Quick sidebar, great story.
So Isaac just got a, yeah, part-time job at Lifetime.
He's like helping out with pickleball there.
He just got his first name tag.
All right.
Says Isaac on it.
Except he noticed next to Isaac, it says he, him, his.
He's like, huh, okay, I didn't ask for that.
I think people probably know what my gender is
when they look at me.
He starts looking around, he's like,
okay, no one else has their pronouns.
I was gonna say, I've never noticed that in my life time.
He said there's one other guy who has pronouns
that has a name tag, and he is the most flamboyant gay guy
in that whole lifetime.
And Isaac's going, what does this mean?
Why did they do this?
Like, is this new company policy?
They're like, no.
No, just figured, you know.
You do pickleball drills.
Your haircut, you know.
So he's like actually just like,
do I say something about this?
Like what?
That's interesting.
Yeah.
And so I like the new name tags have them.
That's what we were thinking, but we, we don't think so.
No. Yeah. I don't think so either.
We looked into it a little bit.
Yeah. I think so.
I don't know who that comes from the top down.
I don't know who I interviewed him.
I don't know why he's got his pronouns on his name tag,
but it is not company policy.
It is just for Isaac specifically.
So he said this week he's got to muster up the courage
and like talk to somebody about it.
Yeah.
Or it was like, I lost my,
can you print it again and just Isaac?
Yeah, just straight up.
I think I lost it because there's too many words on it.
Straight up. Oh dang.
Yeah. Straight, straight up.
Yes, straight up. I straight straight up yes straight straight
I'll be able to straighten there after this sorry I lost it the replacement
name tags are like 60 bucks no problem that's fine that's great
yep I'll pay you $60 straight up even that's wild
yeah Isaac he him is can you come help me with his ball machine I will say we
went over and played pickleball at lifetime the other day and
Like he walked in and people were like my old man were like, hey
Do it in there three days the king already. I will love them. So it's pretty cute. Oh
There are a decent amount of flame boy people working there. Oh, yeah, I did tell Isaac like, be careful. Okay. Yeah. They want to drill.
Don't get ideas. You, my next current obsession is it's a treat. It's a, it's a breakfast. It's a,
whatever you want to call it. Um, there's granola from Costco. I don't know what it's like, it's
like cereal ish or you can put whatever it's granola granola from Costco. I don't know what it's like. It's like cereal ish or you can put whatever.
It's granola, granola from Costco with frozen blueberries
and milk.
Send me a link.
Send me a link.
Dude, this sounds good.
Unbelievable.
So I get the, I mean, it's, it's separate.
You understand?
I'm putting the frozen blueberries with the granola
and the milk.
Do you understand?
I do now.
I didn't want frozen granola.
Yeah, I thought they're just the blueberries were frozen. Yeah. Oh yeah. But you're still like, you're, you're combining it. Do you understand? I do now. I didn't want frozen granola. Yeah, I thought the blueberries were frozen.
Yeah, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
But you're still like, you're combining it.
You're making your own salad here.
Make my own salad.
Yeah.
Yeah, I got the nice dressing, nice milky dressing.
And the frozen blueberries like just slightly melt
when you pour the milk on them.
And so it's like real cold milk, real nice texture.
I'm obsessed with it, dude.
Like truly like I want it all the time.
I love granola and I'm always trying to find cool ways
to consume more of it.
So I'm in.
Oh, it's so good, dude.
Yeah. Yeah.
I don't know where we were at Seattle or something.
We were at the day of a show.
I remember we went to this coffee shop
and it was called on the menu was called big kids cereal.
It was like milk, granola
and like blueberries and strawberries. It was awesome. Yeah, it was called Big Kid Cereal. It was like milk, granola, and blueberries and strawberries.
It was awesome.
It was a great meal.
Yeah, there's been a few times
where I throw bananas in there.
No problem at all with that either, dog.
So good.
Ah, dang, dude!
Ah!
We got me feeling like a primate, dog.
Man.
Make me wanna go, come on, come on, that ain't enough! Start eating with my toes every now and then, man. I go back 5, make me want to go home.
Start eating with my toes every now and then, man.
I go back 5,000 years.
Make me curl my head back and say, dang bro.
Anyway, just love it, honestly.
And like this, this is where it's like, I mean, you can judge that if you want already,
but I also really love eating them out of, we have those cereal bowls that have the straws
on them.
Oh yeah.
I love them.
I've always, yeah, we've had them at growing up and I, we have like five or six of them
still and I don't ever have it at a regular bowl.
I'm always going for the straw.
I don't use the straw.
Oh, you don't even use the straw.
The granola is so small that it doesn't really work for it.
I would use it if I could, but I see.
It's awesome.
I don't think I've seen one of these before.
Oh, they're just like bowls that have a little straw stick it out the side of them.
All one piece of plastic.
Oh, and usually a fun color.
So it's just like, yeah, your leftover milk.
Yep.
That's kind of fun.
Stucking stuff for Christmas for time. Whoa. Memorial day
gift. Have you gotten his memorial gift yet? It's in the mail. Okay. Hopefully it'll be
here in time. No. All right. Timon current session. Uh, yeah, I'm already kind of reaching
for stuff. I'm just more of a current thing that I'm enjoying. But John Mayer, I think like you put me onto him like
a while back. Just like the Continuum album. Oh baby. It's so good. Oh man. The whole like top to bottom.
Truly. Yeah. Maybe the only song I don't love. Well, what do you think? Do you have any songs?
I don't know. Let me pull it up here. Yeah. Let me. What What's your song that you were gonna say is not is the most popular song on the album
Probably is waiting on the world change. I don't love that song. I think it's kind of kind of I see I like that kind of
candy
Yeah, very good. Like just like kind of too sweet
I think some of these on the album like I typically I'll just listen like the probably seven or eight that I have like
Saved in my playlist. So I don't know. I'm not like super familiar with all of these But yeah, I just listened to like the probably seven or eight that I have like saved in my playlist. So I don't know. I'm not like super familiar with all of these, but yeah, I just gravity.
I love belief.
Dreaming with a broken heart, slow dancing in a burning room.
Bold as love I listened to today.
So good.
Yeah.
You listened to his live album?
I don't think so.
Oh, Timon.
Alright, Timon.
So he does a live album.
It's all, it's all him. Like the whole album. Oh, time. All right, time. And so he does a live album. It's all, it's all him, like the whole album.
Oh, sweet. It's first he does acoustic, which is by himself, which is unbelievable. Okay. And then
he does John Mayer trio next, I think. I think that's the next one, which is also unbelievable
because you realize like he's playing guitar while singing all this. Yeah. And then he does
a whole band and it's unbelievable, dude. Yeah.
It's so good.
And then he basically listened to Bold is Love specifically
because he inadvertently preaches the gospel
during Bold is Love and it's amazing.
Okay.
It's like, John, because he's basically like,
I'm searching for, I've been trying all these different
things, I just can't figure it out.
And I just figure like, the only answer to this thing
is just love, man.
It's just love. I just answer to this thing is just love, man. It's just love.
I just need to like feel love and like give love.
And I'm like, bro, that's called Jesus, man.
Like it's like really, so anyway, check it out.
I will, I will.
That's fun.
Curator of session, Jake.
Back to me.
Verb bars, Matt's old company.
Even though he's not a part of it anymore.
I really like him. I love starting my day with him
Yeah, a little shot of caffeine
It's just great. Yeah, they're just like these little like granola caffeine bars
Yeah, granola bars natural caffeine in them. So yeah load me up
Yeah
What makes it natural caffeine, you know what I mean? It's not nothing unnatural about it. That they have an unnatural caffeine?
I don't know.
Okay. Thank you.
Epidermis.
Yeah. Where's the, where's the coffee?
Get all the caffeine.
That's that natural.
That's gotta be an edge.
I'll talk to Jeff.
My last current obsession.
Actually, I just noticed all three of mine are B's.
Baby adult videos, blueberries and granola cereal
and Brooklyn nine nine.
All of time is our John's.
Yeah.
That's it should be time to figure out John
for your last one.
Brooklyn Nine-Nine was my last one.
That's nice.
Yeah, just it's, Katherine doesn't think it's that funny
and I think it's, she thinks it's too stupid.
She's like, it's too stupid a humor for me.
I think it's so funny, dude.
I just watched, we watched a trailer for a show last night,
the new Ted Danson show on Netflix
Okay, it's got the like Latino woman from Brooklyn 99 in it. Okay, which one there's two the
Mean one. Oh, yeah Rosa Diaz. Yeah. Yeah, she's in that interesting comedy
I think so a little bit. Yeah, I think it's I it
Just like every single show ever.
Like it doesn't it's not as good as at the end.
But man, has it got some great moments in it. So the night night.
OK, natural caffeine refers to caffeine that is extracted from plants
rather than synthesized in a lab.
So, for instance, like natural caffeine would come from coffee beans, tea leaves.
Like natural caffeine would come from coffee beans, tea leaves, Guarana seeds, Yerba mate, and cacao.
Okay.
Cacao has got some caffeine, huh?
I guess, yeah, I knew it.
Chocolate has caffeine.
Fun.
I'm looking at this.
So those are natural.
Cool.
John?
John Krasinski.
Have you seen A Quiet Place, guys?
He does a good job.
You letterbox it?
Directing it.
I didn't watch it recently, but he directed it.
It's a good movie.
So is he not in it?
He's in it too.
He's in it too.
Yeah.
I've never seen it, but I've seen the clip of him running down the bridge.
Oh, watch it.
Yeah.
I would recommend it.
It's actually like, like I, I didn't, I wasn't like a John Krasinski guy before that movie
because I wasn't like an office person.
So yeah. Good, good good good movie. What what a gift to know that you just have the office is waiting in your back pocket
I mean, that's awesome time and like yeah an office guy. It's like
What it is nice like any time you could be just
Injected with joy and I'm like I feel like I'm saving it for a good time
I'm like I'm gonna watch the office at some point. Yeah, work slow, grade's out of town.
You know, just bear down on office.
I said the exact same things about a year ago.
Scott had never seen the show, You.
And I just knew Scott, I knew he would love it.
And I was like, dude, what a gift that is
that you get to watch it from the start.
And literally just last night, he finally finished it,
texted me in all caps, just, I can't believe it.
Oh my gosh. All right, text me in all caps. Just, I can't believe this. Oh my gosh.
All right, one last one.
Yep.
Not a huge deal, but I'm in the app Discord
on a daily basis these days.
What do you know about that?
Not much, is it just like a, here's,
this is me being such an old man about it.
Is it just like message boards basically?
Yeah.
Okay, like is it- It's not a physical cord just like message boards basically? Yeah. OK. Like is it a physical cord?
How is it different? Yeah.
How is it different than Reddit?
Reddit, there's more of a.
There's like a there's a feed and you could scroll.
This feels like almost just like it's just organized messaging
or just like chat rooms.
Yeah, it's like a log log of chat. And it's not even that like chat rooms. Yeah, it's like a log of chat.
And it's not even that like crazy organized,
like I feel like it could be better,
but for whatever reason it's popular.
But I remember like four or five years ago,
someone wanted us to start a ghost artist discord.
And even then we felt too boomer to like,
I don't really understand.
100%.
A lot of hashtags.
Facebook group, sure.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But anyway, for Friday stuff,
we've got our own little thing in there
and kind of fostering a little community in there.
And so it's fun.
So what are you doing in there?
Like, are you stirring, not stirring a pot,
but like engaging conversation or just more?
A little bit.
Yeah, I'm kind of just like,
I'm seeing everything, I'm reacting to certain things.
It gives people direct access to us
to be able to ask questions about the paddle.
Okay.
I'll give them like, I gave 24 hours early access
to like some content, you know, I try to like add value
in certain ways, but it's kind of just fun
just to kind of lurk and see what people are saying
about the fever.
How do you think, like, what kind of people
are the Discord people in the world?
Dudes.
Really?
Yeah.
I don't know, like techie or like younger or?
I don't know. Can you feel that out yet? I don't know what type is typically on discord
I would say probably people who are also on reddit. Yeah more than likely own
like a gaming PC
Yeah, yeah, and
They don't do any more, but they used to hacky sack. Oh really or like they had one. Yeah, they had oh, yeah
Yeah, like they're soul patching hacky sack not the same time. like they had one. Yeah, they had one. Oh yeah, yeah. Like they're-
Soul patch and hacky sack?
Not at the same time, but yeah.
I remember back when we had a soul patch.
Yeah, well my kindergarten teacher, she had a soul patch.
I remember a dude that had three legs.
He could hack his ass with the best of them, dude.
God dang.
Dude, I'm kind of distracted.
You got these ants that are flying.
You seen this? Flying ants? Flying ants. You got these ants that are flying. You seen this?
Flying ants?
Flying ants.
Didn't know that was a thing.
There was one just crawling around right here and then.
Why do I pay for a bug guy?
You know, I noticed some ants in the guest bathroom
the other day and now here.
Yeah, that's what they should fix.
What do they do?
Call them up.
I figured we had less ants and less bugs and less mice
when I didn't pay for pest control.
And keep themselves in business.
They're leaving rat food everywhere.
They're asking for it.
Yeah, they're putting peanut butter on my windowsill.
That's all my current obsessions.
We're done being obsessed.
Yeah, get over it guys.
And this time and you had one more John?
Nope, I'm out.
John, there's no more Johns.
Should we do our s'mores? S'm out. John, out the bench. There's no more Johns. Should we do our schmores?
Schmores.
Yeah, let's do it.
Schmores are breakfast food.
I don't think we've done this.
If we have, we'll see if we change it this time.
I know I did not win the last one
because I did not take the answer seriously.
I think you-
Champion problems?
Yeah, but you might've, I don't know, who won?
I remember you being kind of out there. Oh, really
Let me see. Let's see here hard to spell I search for it
Click marketplace. I did win
Congrats time. Thanks 40%
Wow, this one might actually matter what order we go in so think about hey think about them
I don't even know. I mean for me, I don't have like a clear for,
I'm gonna go, I'm gonna go Jake Bradme.
I don't even care.
Jake Bradme.
Okay, great.
Jake Bradme.
All right, I get to go twice.
First pick in breakfast foods.
Oh, Tyman, why'd you do this?
Jake Bradme.
What is the best breakfast for?
I'm really prepared to go second or third.
Give me, give me cereal.
Give me cereal.
Okay, good, good.
Thank you.
I support it.
Yeah, thanks.
One one, one one.
I didn't laugh at you, Jake.
I didn't laugh at you.
I don't know if I laughed.
Felt bad for him.
Just kidding.
Yeah, it's not, you know,
it's not something you're like whipping up.
You're not ordering at a restaurant for breakfast, but.
Well, sometimes it sounds like adult cereal.
Big kid cereal.
Yeah.
It's like, it's my earliest breakfast food
and it might be my latest breakfast food.
I'll have it my whole life.
Sorry, I'm thinking of adult cereal versus big,
like what if adult cereal is just like,
uh, the alphabet.
What are those things called?
The SpaghettiOs.
Yeah, but there was ones for cereal that had the letters,
but it just spells out cuss words, like adult cereal.
That's kind of funny.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Only, only cuss words.
They couldn't, how'd they figure out how to, you know,
get them all together, but.
You literally can't make any other words.
Yeah.
Somehow.
How'd they do that?
All right, cereal.
Cereal it is.
And I'd say, I don't know if you've heard,
earliest and latest as well as like time of day.
Like, in case of the morning hits at night.
Yeah, I'd like to see if you guys have this.
I had honeycomb last night.
What?
That's not breakfast? It's breakfast foods
Is that the schmores were doing or not?
dang
Good retort
Cuz we used to think he was retorted
Sorry, I said that guys I was playing a character.
Yeah, right.
All right, breakfast foods.
Dang, that's a good answer.
All right, my first one is gonna be bacon.
I'm going bacon right off the bat.
That's very solid.
I didn't even think about that.
It's not even on my list.
What's wrong with me?
Bacon feels about as universally loved
as anything in the world.
I'm not saying everyone loves it. I'm saying as universally loved as anything in the world. I'm not saying everyone loves it.
I'm saying as universally loved as anything in the world.
Dude, there was a phase where like merchandise
became overwhelmingly bacon.
Yes.
Like, I don't know when that was,
maybe 2012 or something.
It was just like, everything is like, keep calm and bacon on.
You know what I'm saying?
Like bacon infiltrated all the basic sayings.
Like bacon pillows you could buy.
Like bacon.
Yeah.
Yeah, like towels that just had bacon on them.
And I feel like, yeah, they were just injecting it
into every just like phrase and just like,
let me try to find some.
Well, the baconator.
No, seriously.
I'm serious.
That's not really what I'm talking about,
but yes, that is like.
I do feel like we went through a phase with bacon for sure.
Yeah.
Also with pretzels, we went through a phase with pretzels.
Really?
Yeah, this is more food related, obviously,
but like, yeah, every restaurant was like,
the pretzel bun, you know, all these different things.
Oh, I see.
Yeah, all right.
Give it back to me, I'll find it.
I'll find some bacon stuff, bacon merch.
Time?
All right.
My first two picks are going to be in the same-ish vein.
I'm going to go first waffles.
And I'm picturing them specifically with whipped cream.
You can go either way.
And then also crepes.
These are just my personal, like,
if I think of like the best tasting breakfasts.
Hey, good for you. Where do you get a good crepe? I didn't have either of them at home. Yeah, you make them. It's like, if I think of like the best tasting breakfasts. Hey, good for you.
Where do you get a good crepe?
I didn't have either of them at home.
Yeah, you make them. It's like you can make two ingredient crepes.
I can't remember what the exact two are, but like unsifted flour, probably.
And then you just
make them flat roll.
Like you have to make
this.
This is why I'm like this is not going to be a popular pick, but like,
no, it's just the best tasting thing that I ever have had for breakfast.
I think I think the only reason it might not be popular is because not enough
people have had them. I don't think. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
I feel like every time I've had a crepe, it's like, that was awesome.
I need to have more. Yeah. At home. Look up a simple crepe recipe and then make
the, the filling needs to be, you get like cream cheese, frozen blueberries,
and some sugar and just like blend that up and put that in the middle,
like roll it up and then just
Top it with whipped cream and strawberries. Okay, it's the best food you'll ever eat
I think there's a spot in Breckenridge, Colorado that has like
Like both sweet and savory crepes and there and you have to wait in line for an hour plus but it is unbelievable
Yeah, so that's a good answer. Waffles and crepes.
All right.
That's good too.
I was really worried when you went waffles
that you were also going to go pancakes,
which would have been diabolical to go one,
two waffles, pancakes.
It would have been a really tough move to go past that,
but pancake, I used to be much more waffles French toast guy.
I've become like, oh, it's because I didn't have
the right type of pancakes.
And all of a sudden when you get a good pancake, it is heavenly.
Okay. So I'm not, you know, I'm, I'm the San Antonio Spurs of this draft so far with bacon
and pancakes. I'm not like, Whoa, these guys are flashy, but it's like, these guys are
going to win championships with this. So if you have a good version of bacon and pancakes,
you can do well. Yeah. I, that was my option to go first was gonna be pancakes.
So good, dude.
So Catherine makes them sometimes,
she does them with coconut oil,
just a little tinge of coconut, dude.
One more time, you ready for this?
God dang, dude.
All right, I got two more here and then one more,
but at first I have two more.
All right, I'm gonna go French toast.
Because I found myself ordering that.
Like when I'm at a restaurant,
it's like pancakes, you make pancakes at home.
But I'm like, French toast feels like, oh.
You know what French toast has?
They dip them in.
Eggs.
Oh yeah, you get egg bites and it's gross.
And I'm like, why did I order this?
It's a big old bite of egg.
Ew, I hate the egg bites.
But that's why at a restaurant, you're like,
they're probably getting rid of most of the egg bites.
So I love some like strawberries
and powdered sugar on some French toast.
And then my other pick is gonna be generic,
but just biscuits.
However you wanna doll them up, dress them up.
We wanna go gravy, you're in a gravy mood.
Yeah, maybe it's winter.
Let's get some gravy out.
Sometimes you're just like feeling a little sweet,
just butter and honey maybe,
or you're married now and your wife says,
I got some organic jam.
You say toss it in there.
So yeah, I like the versatility of biscuits
and you really, it's hard to mess up a biscuit.
Okay.
Throw some sausage in there.
Yes, dude.
It's still on the board.
So biscuits and gravy is off the board then probably.
Yes.
Okay.
Okay.
Okay.
All right.
My next pick I'm going to go.
This is, this is my, this is my manager nobly to my Tim Duncan.
Okay.
For all the sports people out there.
I'm going to go breakfast burritos.
It's a little bit more of an exotic pick. It's a little more like, OK, that now you're
now you turn some heads with this one.
I can't get behind it, but no.
I guess if you're not an eggs guy,
you probably don't like them either, Jake.
But man, they are just a sight to have, sight to be seen.
I can't agree, but I'm afraid that a lot of people will.
Oh, yeah.
You'll get your back backed up on that.
People in Texas like to call them tacos,
breakfast tacos, even though they are burritos.
What?
Yeah, like they're like enclosed burritos.
They're like, that's a breakfast taco.
No.
Oh.
But anyway, breakfast burritos, unbelievable filling,
protein packed, on the go, all the good stuff.
Yeah.
So. All right, I'm really not sure which to pick next, but the good stuff. Yeah. So.
All right, I'm really not sure what to pick next,
but I'm gonna go sausage.
I think I'm picturing either the links
or even like the patties, it's all good.
It's all good in the morning.
Yep.
Yeah.
And then I got a lot still up there for my last,
I'm gonna go, I'm gonna follow my heart
and I'm not gonna win this, but milk.
I love a glass of milk.
I didn't even think about just straight milk.
Yeah.
Yeah, I didn't even think about drinks in general
for breakfast foods.
But I do love milk.
Yeah.
Goes good with cereal, I don't know, guys.
Yeah.
But you could have cereal without,
or you could have milk without cereal.
Cereal without milk. Eh. You're gonna be Thursday.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Good answer.
Thank you.
I don't know.
I was thinking foods.
Okay.
I can, I can, I can go to a different route.
It's a great pick.
If you want milk, that's great.
All right.
It's the only thing on my list.
I wrote down in all caps. It's because you wrote in all K. My last one is a specific. This is from one restaurant.
Chick-fil-a has the one of the best breakfast foods in the world. It's called chicken minis.
Unbelievable. Forgot about that. I love those. My kids, my kids could eat five to ten of them each. If they serve them throughout the day,
I would have way more of them. Like right now. That sounds amazing. And how hard is it to serve
those? Like it's just the chicken nuggets, right? It went culture. What's up buddy?
Yeah, I think I've had chicken minis once or twice. Oh, wow. Maybe I've gotten Like mediocre batches or something. I want to give another chance because I thought the breading tasted kind of like
Strange and like almost sour. Oh
Yeah, it's not like maybe I don't know I think I've never had a bad batch for you clearly got one
They're unbelievable or maybe it was too sweet. I can't remember. They are sweet.
They are sweet.
Yeah.
Oh, they're so good.
And you can throw them down.
Throw them down.
Throw them down.
All right, back to me to, in this sucker.
Is that right?
Or yeah, he has been.
Yes, he has been.
I don't want to go too generic.
I'll go specific.
I'll go banana.
I don't want to say fruit, but one, one, one banana.
Single banana.
I think banana is great.
That's like a on the go.
Yeah.
Great way to start your day.
Henry can get down on some banana.
It's great to just have a batch around the house.
Yes.
Run a link.
Around the house.
Yeah. I have one in the bathroom.
I have one in the closet.
I love that.
I have one in the car.
I use it like dangles for my rear view mirror.
Yeah. Banana is just like a, like a tried and true great breakfast. That's a good pick.
Fruit.
What is your ideal banana?
Pretty straight, not too much curve, little curve.
Okay.
And I like a more well done than most people. I'd say medium well. Well done. I like a medium well-done than most people.
I'd say medium well.
I like a medium well.
Well done meaning like brown.
Not ready for banana bread.
It doesn't look like an old man's skin,
but it's definitely, it's been yellow for a couple days now.
No sight of green anywhere near it.
We're starting to get some lesions, some freckles on it.
A little brown.
A thousand percent agree.
Those are great. That's, I want it freckled. I want it freckles on it. A little brown. A thousand percent agree. Those are great.
That's, I want it freckled.
I want it freckled on the outside
without being blemished on the inside.
Yeah, and I know it's a little stringier that way,
but I just think the taste is better.
Oh, it's way sweeter.
Yeah, because the, yeah, you get the green on there
and it just doesn't taste as good.
It just tastes like you're eating like an ice cube.
Yeah, that's true.
Yeah, but you got it.
That's the beauty of it is like, you got to have,
it's the perfect window.
Bananas are kind of insane.
They make you buy 14 of them.
They're only good for three days.
How does that work?
You got to get like a super green one,
like a yellow, like you got to buy them
in a little bit of phases.
Did you know that bananas is the item
that Walmart sells the most of
in the whole like United States?
Like the, yeah, a single banana,
like if that's one unit, like they sell more.
I think so, I think that's how it's calculated.
Yeah, that's the item that sells the most at Walmart.
Not what I would have guessed.
I mean, I could be wrong about this,
but it feels like bacon, super universally loved,
bananas also super universally loved.
Good, I put that on my list.
You think so?
You think it's true?
Catherine's not a huge banana person, but like.
I think banana is not too risky.
It's like out of the fruits is like the least acidic fruit.
It's like, this is just mush.
How do you not like mush?
Oh man, Henry likes that mush.
He loves, but like his whole demeanor will change
if you pull out a banana.
Yeah.
Yeah, just lights up.
So, all right, Jake said-
Man, I grew up with a guy who,
his wife would breastfeed bananas to him.
He liked him so much.
She's like, man, give me some of them bananas.
All right.
Jake said cereal, French toast, biscuits,
and a single banana or bananas.
Brad said bacon, pancakes, pancakes breakfast burritos chicken minis
Me said waffles crepes sausage and milk. You said Jake Brad and me, right?
I found some of these bacon t-shirts. They're awful. Let's hear it. I got a PhD in bacon ology
Oh, that's not that's clever. If if you have no brain you wear that on a shirt
Somebody bought it for me, I probably wouldn't, no.
If someone was nice enough to get it for me,
no, I wouldn't.
No, I don't think so.
Bacon, another reason I know Jesus loves me.
That's the gospel, that's how they teach it.
I love strip shows, bacon, chicken, mozzarella.
What?
Not the mozzarella part. Baconologist.
Oh.
That's it.
That's it.
That's too much bacon, said no one ever.
Yes, I would wear that one.
Yes, dude.
I'd wear that one.
Yes.
Yeah, you're baking me crazy.
It's like a Rastafarian guy.
XL T-shirt, body by bacon.
Body by bacon.
All right, that's it.
Irish by heritage, baconologist by choice.
By choice.
Remember those.
Honorable mentions.
I had eggs.
Jake?
They were my French toast.
Breakfast potatoes.
You know what I'm talking about?
Those little diced ones.
Hash browns.
Hash browns as well.
I'm thinking of like the little like cubes.
Yeah.
Oh, Chick-fil-A's hash browns, McDonald's hash brown,
Sauté's.
Yeah.
Those are good.
I just call those, I call those breakfast French fries to the kids.
It's all about the marketing.
And then you said cereal.
I had a cinnamon toast crunch written down though.
Mm.
Nice.
So.
Nice.
Yeah, I had that I didn't mention toast with jam.
Oh, you do love your toast.
Smoothie and then orange juice and apple juice.
Didn't know if, yeah.
I feel like milk is almost more of a food than those are,
I think.
Like milk's got more substance to it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I had pop tarts.
I was raised on pop tarts.
Sure. I wrote down intermittent fasting. I was raised on Pop Tarts. Sure.
I wrote down intermittent fasting.
I didn't choose it, but I thought nothing
is an appropriate choice.
Sure.
Nothing.
Yeah.
Granola bar, and then last I don't remember
how to mention, muffin or any kind of pastry.
I know you're not supposed to probably start your day
with sugar and carbs, but it feels good.
Donut, dude.
Oh my gosh.
It is amazing how they just like convinced us like, yeah, that's a breakfast. That's a breakfast. Yeah, donuts crazy. You're good. You're good. Donut dude, oh my gosh. It is amazing how they just like convinced us like,
yeah, that's a breakfast.
That's a breakfast, yeah, donuts crazy.
You're good, it's fine.
Just throw it, yeah, throw it in there.
It doesn't fill you up with one, I know.
I know it won't fill you up with one,
so have like three or four.
If you need to get filled up,
do chocolate glaze on the top.
Yeah, yeah, or some chocolate milk with it as well,
is really good.
You have 2000 calories by 8 a.m.
That was great.
Film on that cherry pie.
5K movie.
We're in a pastry shop.
So donuts just on hand.
Yeah.
That is sugar of 2025.
Wow.
Kind of kind of kind of.
What's the matter? Just, I don't know.
I kind of hurt my throat when I did it.
Oh, I'm sorry. You need some Levothyroxan? No, I need some Good Ranchers in my life though.

A few little notes kind of in this thing,
or little random thoughts from Brad.
One of them is, I don't like the bumper stickers
that say, tell your dog I said hi.
It feels passive aggressive to me.
You don't, not just because it's like a basic thing,
but you're like, even just the verbiage itself is odd.
It's just, it's like, it's like, well,
it just feels like, hey, you tell your dog I said hi.
Tell them.
They say it through gritted teeth?
Yeah, it does.
It feels a little aggressive.
Ask your dog if he remembers me.
I think it's because it's a command.
That's what it is.
It's like, tell your dog I said hi.
You're bypassing me, you go straight to the dog?
Why, why? Who are you to, I don't even know you. It's like tell your dog. I said hi you bypassing me you go straight to the dog. Why why? Who are you? I don't even know you I don't have a dog. Yeah, you have a Subaru Impreza
I don't know what I don't know your life. Tell your dog. I said hi
You don't see that one too much, but it is weird. I just don't I don't get it really either
Like I think they just love dogs
Tell your dog. I said hi. That was a big thing when I was on the dating apps.
Where to find me at the party, probably petting the dog.
Oh yeah.
That was one of those, I look at the groom.
It's like a lot of the girls think they're like,
hey, I'm gonna say something.
Like, no, you're all saying it.
What else was, do you remember other things like that?
Like, I love.
Easiest way to my heart, tacos.
Tacos was a good one.
That was a big one on there.
Yeah.
Oh man, it's been like six months
that I was on them, I can't remember.
Seven, right?
Yeah, oh yeah, sorry, I forgot.
Yeah, dude.
No, I can't remember too much else.
I've seen girls make fun of guys
because guys always talk about the office, I guess.
Like, my sense of humor, the office.
If you don't like the office, we can't be friends. I think that's like about the office, I guess. Like, my sense of humor, the office.
If you don't like the office, we can't be friends.
I think that's like a basic guy thing.
And of course, I can hold up to fish picks, but.
Who would that be hard?
Dating guys are pretty hard.
I'm like, because you want to be like fun
and different probably, but also.
But you don't know if you're being different
because you can't see the other guy profiles.
Right.
Unless you've got a mole.
You switch over. Right. Unless you've got a mole. You switch over.
Yeah.
Yeah, I tried to always like make mine my own
big personality, but at the end of the day,
I was like, just go to my Instagram.
You're gonna get a good sense on Instagram.
That's nice.
I don't really jump off the page.
I think I'll just put it straight and narrow.
Straight and narrow.
Straight and arrow.
Straight as an arrow. I just say that's all I put. I'm so freaking straight narrow, straight and narrow, straight and narrow.
Straight as an arrow.
I just say that's all I put.
I'm straight as an arrow.
He hit straight.
Hey, what's up guys?
My name is Brad.
I'm probably one of the straightest guys on here.
If that's something you're into, huh?
Alpha male straight as an arrow.
Yeah.
All right.
How, how often are y'all waving to people while driving? Straight as an arrow. Yeah.
All right, how often are y'all waving to people while driving?
Good question.
Not that often.
If I'm on foot more though.
Yeah.
But if you're driving.
But just car to car, not that often in the big city.
What about car to, car to pedestrian?
Not that often, I'm afraid. I thinkarta Podest more often than Carta car. Yeah, sure. But both like 2% of the time. Really? Yeah.
I've, I don't, I've gotten in a habit. I don't know if it's a bad habit, but I've gotten in a
habit of like, like I think the other day, I don't think it was the highway, but it was like,
yeah, I like wave this.
I'm like, like kind of being no one in this town.
What happened to the Midwest?
And no one's waving back to me.
I'm on I 35 minutes to be like Mayberry around here.
Now there's not even people.
Yeah.
I genuinely, I don't think you're like, I don't,
I think it was like Shawnee mission Parkway,
which is not the highway, but like 45 speed limit though.
Yeah.
It gets up to like maybe 55, 60 at some point.
Yeah.
And like, it was all, it was kind of a sarcastic, but it was by myself.
I was like, why did I do that?
And it's not like, it's not like a big wave.
It's like a little like, yeah, off the steering wheel wave a little bit.
But I have a buddy who lives in like small town, Kansas.
And every time like he comes to Kansas City,
every car he passes on the road,
he's always like, just doing a quick like,
yeah, not even taking the hand all the way
off the steering wheel, just a quick,
like as he's talking to me, having conversation,
and I've kind of gotten into it.
I don't know.
There's something about like, well, two reasons.
I think you wave.
One is it like, if you're going so slow,
you have so much time to take in the other person,
like a parking lot.
I think I kind of wave in a parking lot,
because also sometimes it's like,
hey, thank you, thanks for giving me space.
Howdy, you know?
But also just like, you're driving in New Hartford, Iowa.
It's like, I haven't seen a car in five minutes,
so we should like acknowledge each other.
It's like you're the only two people
walking on the sidewalk.
You seeing that? Yeah, yeah. Hey, yeah, good to see you, man other. It's like you're the only two people walking on the sidewalk. You seeing that?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Good to see you, man.
Anytime there's like construction on the road
and there's like workers out there,
like with the slow sign, I'm always like,
Hey.
And they always, they like always give me a nice head down.
Like.
I try to always be really polite
to the guys holding the slow sign.
I'll like roll in my window.
Like, I bet you still have your GED.
I wouldn't have known.
Yeah. You fooling me buddy.
At least you got a job bucko. I always talk to him like that.
Slow and steady wins the race. Right? So you don't need to hold that sign.
You're doing just fine. You're doing. Yeah. Be proud of it.
I would have noticed. Yeah. Anyway, just waving a lot to people these days.
Yeah. And then another thing, like along with that, like something I, I kind of started as a joke, I think from the podcast that I say dog all the time now.
Do you? I'm like, yeah, dog. Like, what are you, what are you talking about?
The dog, you're in the dog days right now. I'm in the dog days of summer. Yeah. So,
you know, that's on timing. That could be a fun jingle. Fun. That's a great song. Yeah. Good song.
I wonder if we've done one to that at one point. You might have.
Somebody would know, but.
You might have.
I don't think I did a great job on it if I did,
but yeah, time would kill that.
Someone write us a jingle to the dog days.
The first time I heard that song,
I was like, this is a roller coaster of a trip.
I think this is music here.
Yeah.
It's like, I think the song's over.
Oh, it's not even close to being over.
Run faster.
Yeah. Yeah. We're back, we're back. So over. Oh, it's not even close to being over? Run faster! Yeah.
Yeah.
We're back, we're back.
So good.
Yeah, that's a good song.
I've been clicking on like kind of
stranger YouTube videos lately.
Like I've been venturing out of my world.
I think it's, football's not, you know, I'm lost.
I don't know what to do.
I don't know what to consume, you know?
And so I clicked on one the other day.
There was just the story of like the chair
that like we all sat in at some point,
like in like elementary school or something.
Like a guy just did like a mini documentary
about this chair.
Like that hard plastic chair.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And it weirdly brought back memories.
It was like the music we talked about.
Like this guy starts talking about a chair
and he's sitting in it.
And then he's like leaning back in it.
And like all of a sudden you start thinking about
like your school and everything.
And another one that really caught me off guard,
I just clicked on a video that was like
exactly what it takes to become an air traffic controller.
I was like, you know, I've always kind of heard it's like
crazy mental health issues, it's hard to hire people,
it's like they're offered 200 grand for this job
and sort of keep people.
So I clicked on it and I got about halfway through and I texted Rachel
and I said, I might, I might do this.
Yeah, I think my skillset really matches up well
with an air traffic controller.
If I had somehow not stumbled
into everything I stumbled into,
I very well could see myself doing that,
which is so crazy to think,
just the opposite of what I'm doing now.
But also I looked up, I think,
maybe Chad GPT had this wrong,
but you can't apply if you're over the age of 31.
Well, you have to retire really early.
So maybe it's like, yeah, they want you for a long time.
Like I have a friend who's dad, air traffic controller,
and he had to retire younger than a pilot has to retire.
Really?
Like he had to be, yeah, really sharp.
And is that maybe you don't know, just because of the load it takes on you or
just because like they can't, yeah, you can't slip. Yeah.
The mental acuity or whatever of like, yeah,
you have to like be very sharp and like managing all these different moving
parts. Yeah. I don't know pilots. They have it easy these days. One plane.
Yeah. One button. They were at the Atlanta airport,
which I think is like one of the craziest, busiest ones,
but they were like-
Six, every six seconds.
A plane takes off?
Which I don't buy, but that's what I hear.
Look, we looked that up.
They only have like four runways.
I watched the video.
It's like crazy.
Wait, Atlanta's airport?
Is this like one airport?
I know it's like the busiest airport in the world, I think.
Yeah, I know.
I know, I think.
They were saying that the, you know,
data shows us that the human brain can keep track of about seven
things at once, but an air traffic controller has to keep track of 30 planes at once.
So I think that's part of the mental load.
But they've got little tools to kind of help them out.
They've got like, you know, placards and plastic and stuff.
It's got to be every six minutes.
Every six seconds is insane.
It's pretty fun though.
I'm not seeing nearly 110 aircraft operations per hour,
it says.
Whoa.
2,700 arrivals and departures daily.
1,100 per hour?
What?
No, it says 110 per hour.
Oh.
Yes.
Still like every 30 seconds then, or something like,
or close to it.
110?
Pretty often.
Wow. Yeah. Yeah.
About 30 seconds.
But yeah, so everything you ever hear, it sounds miserable.
But for whatever reason, I'm like,
oh, I can do that.
And I'm sure I would not.
I just enjoy it. It'd just be stressful.
Yeah. Yeah.
But it seemed like, just like,
like you have to be like decisive and you have to make quick decisions,
and you have to be able to keep track
of a lot of things at once.
I was like, this is what I've been training for.
I didn't even know it,
but I'm ready to become an air traffic controller.
Oh, 30 wants to cut off.
All right, I'll keep doing pickleball videos.
Did you listen to how they talk?
It seems like you would have too much of a hard time
because there's no personality.
They didn't say, it's like,
it's extremely clear communication,
like no fluff that I would have a little trouble with.
I'm not, what's up boys?
It's time to get down on the, yeah.
Let's get the wings out, the jets up.
Good morning.
Just had my morning milk.
I'm ready to go.
How's the weather where you guys are?
I know actually.
So, you know, Matt told me a fun fact.
You got to hang out with this dude.
I mean, every, he's like the Atlanta airport every 30 seconds.
He'll tell you something like,
dude, never even, he said the entire world,
air traffic control, everyone speaks to each other in English.
I guess they needed to be uniform or something.
So for whatever reason that was mandated.
Like the air traffic controller,
maybe not regional, like local airports,
but like the international airport in Jakarta
is speaking English to their pilots.
And might be the only English they ever
speak. Delta, Delta breaker. One. So you, you think all pilots need to speak English too then? I think
so. I think they at least know how to say what they need to say in English. Right. Fun fact.
Interesting. Every six seconds, someone speaks English. That's what Matt told me.
Every six seconds. Like you just did it, so I have to wait for six seconds.
Isaac told me this.
He said, or no, this is like a debate.
Do you think you've peed at every hour of the day?
Oh yeah.
No, see I go no.
Why, which hours?
415A, oh sorry, every, sorry.
Idiot, god, man.
Every minute. Oh. every minute. Sorry. Idiot. God, man. Every minute.
Oh.
Every minute.
No.
Yeah.
I think it's the middle of the night that's tricky.
No, no, yeah.
We were really trying to take advantage in China.
We're like, this counts for central time.
I think you stay on central time.
That's a fun challenge.
Honestly, a life goal.
Have you peed?
Yeah, I'd say definitely not yet,
but I want to get there by 55.
Retirement age, I want to repeat it every minute.
Wow.
How many minutes are in a day?
24 times 60.
120, 144 with some zeros.
1440?
Could be.
Yeah, that's a lot of different minutes.
I think during like normal operating hours,
we've gotta be close.
I think there could be an outlier like,
yeah, for whatever reason, randomly 11, 17 p.m.
Never got it done.
Yeah.
But middle of the night's tricky.
I don't think so.
You gotta take advantage of being in Vietnam.
Okay, middle of the night is how many of the hours?
Six of hours, we'll say from midnight to six.
That is what, 360 minutes total.
Do you think you've peed 700 times in the middle of the night?
There's no way I have.
No.
I sleep so deeply.
I don't know.
Yeah.
I really wake up to pee in the night.
Or, yeah, I think I have for sure.
Yeah.
I've lived a full life.
And so like-
You're not missing out like us.
So then again, like how likely is it that I've gone
on the same minute? What's more likely that you go in a different minute every time or
you go on the same minute? I don't know. I'm not a guy. The data just like dude, for whatever
reason to 34, it just like, that's the mode. You have peed so many times at that minute.
That's a good point too. Like your body's probably waking up
around the same time to go to the bathroom
in the middle of the night if you are going.
So it's like from 3.30 to four, I'm probably covered.
Yeah.
You know, but.
Let's talk to Chet.
Chetty.
Chetty.
What are you gonna say to it?
Don't you worry about it.
We have a special relationship.
What a funny like thought
They didn't even understand what I was saying if you're asking has the average person p to every minute of the day
The answer is technically no
Practically, maybe yeah, there's 1440 minutes of the day the average person piece six to eight times per day
So it would take a minimum about 200 days peeing at different minutes to potentially cover all times.
You guys peeing six eight times a day? Not quite. Probably. Maybe. 5.1.
Yeah, not not more than six. I don't think. You pee a lot. I know I haven't really like monitored how often I'm going though.
Today I've probably gone twice.
Same. Jake? We probably gone twice. Same.
Jake?
We're all being honest here.
Don't be embarrassed.
Once, just once.
Wow, you got some catching up to do, pal.
Sometimes all like, so like I peed first thing I woke up,
I'm up for like an hour, whatever,
and then I go take a shower,
and it dawned on me once we started recording,
I was like, dang it, I didn't pee in the shower.
I'm like mad at myself when I realized I wasted.
Like I had, I was above a drain for 20 minutes.
I didn't even, I want to waste.
That's so dumb of me.
I can never be an air traffic controller.
Yeah, you're done buddy, sorry.
So this says basically, unless you've lived
an extremely chaotic or well distributed schedule
for years, you probably haven't peed at every minute of the day.
Yeah, that's tough.
Yeah, unless you just like all of a sudden do night shift,
like you're a night shift nurse for a season or something.
Something to think about.
Which it might be worth it to do.
If you had to become a nurse, what type would you do?
Labor and delivery, you've kind of already done that. Yeah, I'm trying to think of all the types. What do we got?
Nick you pick you labor, old person, young person, young person.
That's different than Nick you middle-aged person, rich person, poor person.
Yeah, I mean, way back when it was just like babysitting. You just
are called a nurse. I probably do that one. Sounds easiest. Yeah. You do like, you do
like the ones where it just like the checkup nurse, checkup nurses. That sounds nice.
They have the ones that just clean up the cleanup nurses, cleaners, cleaner nurses.
They have the ones that just clean up the clean up nurses, cleaners, cleaner nurses. I don't know. Nurse practitioner. Nurse practitioners like a doctor. Home
health. Home health nurses. Registered. Registered nurses. Cardiac nurse. My
sister does radiology, like MRIs and stuff. She seems to have a good time.
She'd have fun people. She met Taylor Swift. So that's right. Probably do the one that I get to meet Taylor Swift.
I would do nurse anesthesiology.
I choose a different one.
That's right.
Okay.
Okay.
Anesthetist.
She might be in that too.
I don't know if that's part of her thing.
Maybe kind of a hybrid.
Yeah.
Prius of nurses.
I think they always put the kids under for MRIs and stuff.
Wow. You know, kids are antsy.
I got ants flying around the studio. Yeah, I'm sorry about that. We'll talk to talk to bug guys.
See him right there? Yeah, they are flying ants. Well, four years old. Watch me dance.
You guys are doing winds of the week or you want to,
you want to jump rope or what you guys in the mood for? Yeah. Yeah.
Let's do wins of the week. Um, my computer just died, but, oh, great. Uh,
a couple of wins a week. I've been really enjoying NBA playoffs basketball.
Yeah. Really enjoying that. And then I mentioned on Monday,
but those pictures of Bo with the beavers was just, I was obsessed
with it, man.
I was like, Holy cow.
I've been showing everybody, like, uh, just like how cute, look at this kid.
Bo with the beavers.
Having the time of his life.
Like he's just such a second born kid.
Like as far as like always wanting to be around other people, like we're kind of like worried,
like if we leave him back, is he going to be okay not having other people?
And he's like, so like owned it. Like, you know, cause for the most part it's like, Bo
go play outside. He's like, well, I want you to come with me to play outside. You know,
he's like much more dependent versus had he's just like, she can play by herself.
Leave me alone. Let me have my book. So it's just fun to see him enjoying everything down
in Texas and hopefully have a great experience. But yeah, also just play off basketball, dude.
There's so many stars in the NBA right now
and they're amazing.
There's so many, it's fun.
It's so fun.
So yeah.
WNBA is back, you excited?
That's how bored I was and slash sick last weekend.
I watched one quarter of the sky versus the fever.
Good for you.
It was before all the stuff went down.
Dang, missed it.
Yeah. I didn't hate it.
I'm kind of excited WMA is back.
I was like waiting for it.
I can't see it.
I was like, like last month, I'm like,
I'm starting to see like stuff about Kailin Clark, whatever.
Like season here yet?
Like, dang, it's like three more weeks.
Really?
Yeah.
Yeah.
And not that I'm watching the games,
but I care about like the story, the story and the score.
And you know, like I care about it.
That's fair.
Yeah. I don't, I don't have as much, like I care about it. That's fair.
Yeah, I don't have as much apathy as normal for it.
How about that?
Like I'll read a headline or two
and if enough people are talking about it,
I'm like, okay, I'll check it out.
Yeah.
So, but yeah, watched the quarter and it wasn't terrible.
It was like, that's kind of an impressive play actually.
Yeah.
So there was also a decent amount of missed layups,
but they're gonna go with the bad.
So my one of the week is gonna be people being nice.
Case in point, just 30 minutes ago,
Gunner texted me out of the blue.
We're not talking about anything,
but just, I don't know where.
Hey, Gunner's the man.
So proud of you, man.
Love seeing your success.
Love when the good guys win.
That's awesome.
I don't know if he's talking about Nade or Friday.
I don't even know what he's referring to,
but I'm big Words of Aff guy.
So I really appreciate that.
So just got a few texts like that.
Just nice.
And obviously there's a lot going on.
There's a lot to celebrate right now,
but I'll still take the Words of Aff.
I appreciate it, guys.
That was like nine, 10 words from Gunner.
That's a lot.
Like Gunner, Gunner's a quick texter, short texter.
I mean, that's, he took some time.
I know, yeah, it means a lot.
I love the words, so.
Love that.
Yeah, shout out to just good friends, encouraging friends,
just lifting each other up, and then future win of the week.
Really excited.
We leave for today's Rachel's last day of school.
Tomorrow we leave for Branson.
Come on.
Gonna be a fun weekend.
Yeah, baby.
That's great.
Yeah.
Who all like, this was probably better conversation
around the pod, but like only because it's not that
interesting to other people.
Like who in like the camp world are you gonna see in Branson?
Like who are you excited about seeing this weekend?
I kid you not, I don't know.
Alex Dimcheck is going, other than that,
I don't know of a single person.
So I guess I don't know of a single Kay West person going.
Okay, okay.
But I think I'm kind of excited about that. This is what I used to love when I was single about going to church by myself. I'm like, I love't know of a single person. So I guess I don't know of a single Kay West person going. Okay, okay. But I think I'm kind of excited about that.
This is what I used to love when I was single
about going to church by myself.
Like I love going to a big church.
Like, I don't know who I'm gonna sit next to,
who I'm gonna meet there,
who's gonna know me, who I'm gonna know.
Like I love the idea, the abundance of what could happen.
That pumps you up.
Yeah, I love the idea.
Like I don't wanna text people and ask if they're going.
They're either going or they're not.
It's not gonna change anything.
So like, I can't wait to see who's there.
Because it's a camp, it's a hundred year of camp. and ask if they're going. They're either going or they're not. It's not gonna change anything. So I can't wait to see who's there.
Because it's a camp.
It's a hundred year of camp.
So it's like a big reunion.
But you're the only person that's talked about it to me.
I might be the only person going.
They're like, we need to have a social media blitz.
Let's tell Jake Triplen about it.
And he'll kind of trickle in.
He'll lead the charge.
Yeah, they haven't done an amazing job.
If I ask my friends,
my friends that live in Branson are going. Beyond that No one's like coming into town or anything for it.
So it's hard to get a scope even of what we're doing.
Like, I don't know. Like they say, Hey, Saturday, have at it. Go to your favorite camp and enjoy.
Like, are we like going down the white slide?
Like am I that'd be awesome. Like are we participate? No, I want to. Oh, I would love to blob. Rachel.
Oh, yeah. That would be awesome. Like are we participate? No, I want to oh, I would love to blob Rachel. Oh, yeah
That would be awesome. Yeah, you find you sign some whatever like those things like
Relinquish them from you know, yeah responsibility. Yeah, you get you love on
Yeah, break your neck and just go for it, but I don't know of anyone else. So we'll see
It'll be just fun for Rachel to experience more that yeah
dad
Yeah It'll be just fun for Rachel to experience more of that stuff too. Yeah. Yeah. So yeah, I was in Illinois last weekend for the wedding and it just, I'm learning just
like central Illinois is just, is just laden with listeners of the podcast.
So I, me and my cousin and my brother played pickleball with Tyler Hartman and Aidan Tybal.
Just like Ghostrunners listeners.
Shout out.
Great at pickleball.

government story, like they have all this crazy technology that we don't have. Like,
yeah, there are a few examples of people had like crazy stories.
All right. My comment week is from Kippy Kathy 95.
I got a new license plate in the mail and it was OB for in a.
Nothing against Obama, but it was right before the election and I live in a very
conservative place. So we got a new one.
This looks like Obama.
Nothing against Obama. That's absolutely something against Obama.
Yeah, nothing against Obama I didn't want to be associated
with.
But I had no, yeah.
What about a death sentence to have that license plate?
OB4NA.
They're going to be like, people are going to think
I was trying to say Obama.
All the ones closer to Obama were taken, so I did OB4NA.
That's amazing.
You think that they were like, all right,
why do you want to change it?
Well. It says he, him, his on it were like, all right, why do you want to change it? Like, well, it says he him is on it.
