Starting point is 00:00:00 Happy Monday, ghosties. I was in Iowa this weekend, and Iowa is great for a lot of reasons. We'll talk about it more later, but one is just, the Coops know everyone. You can point at anyone in the town, and they're like, they have a story about them, and I don't even do it on purpose,
Starting point is 00:00:16 I just realize afterwards, I'm like, they're batting a thousand this weekend. I don't point out a single person they don't know. Case in point, yesterday, it's about 24 hours ago, we're sitting at a coffee shop, Angie Coops, new coffee shop, more on that later. And a guy drives by, so this coffee shop sits on like, downtown dyke.
Starting point is 00:00:34 Dyke! And you see a lot of traffic. A guy just drives by, just like, you know those like, Facebook profile picture, like Republican sunglasses, you know, the type. What are you talking like pit viper Republican? Like, no, but it's like reflective blue, like really thin and like really like a, like a
Starting point is 00:00:55 bright blue, like a lens. I'm trying, brother. I'm trying to imagine it. So he's got those. Okay. And he is driving by on a lawnmower. That's really the main thing. Let's focus more on those. Okay. And he is driving by on a lawnmower. That's really the main thing. Let's focus more on that.
Starting point is 00:01:08 Yeah. I'm realizing now sunglasses don't really matter. But he's just driving through, I mean, this is a city street. Just driving by a lawnmower. City lawnmower. And I'm like, Rachel, look at that. And she goes, oh yeah, that's the old janitor. He stole my homecoming dress.
Starting point is 00:01:24 I was like, what? What? that's the old janitor. He stole my homecoming dress Why I've ever heard this story and why he tried to go around the lawnmower Yeah, I mean thank goodness I asked about him I would have never heard this story Yeah, you had a janitor steal your homecoming. What does that mean? Are you telling me that if this guy didn't drive by on the lawnmower? You would never know about the stolen homecoming dress by the creepy janitor? That's why you gotta go to Iowa. I mean, and maybe for you, it's like,
Starting point is 00:01:50 you gotta go back to Iowa. Yeah. And ask about Catherine's upbringing. Yeah, there's just so many stories. And so from what I remember, Rachel was like, yeah, so it was like the day of like homecoming, the football game, they did like a pep assembly where you still kind of like, you get dressed we had like a, it was like the day of like homecoming, the football game, they did like a pep assembly where you still kind of like,
Starting point is 00:02:07 you get dressed up and you walk in an Iowa, that's where they nominated King and Queen. Okay. Okay, great, so you're in their dress, she goes back, school's out, volleyball practice. So all four girls who were like homecoming Queen candidates, they're all in volleyball, so they all got their like dress hanging up, locker room.
Starting point is 00:02:24 They go two hour volleyball practice, come back down, shower, now they're getting ready to like, basically just stay at school, put the dress back on. They gotta go to the football game now. Quick turnaround. Three girls put their dress on, no problem. Rachel's dress is nowhere to be found. And she was like, it was really frustrating
Starting point is 00:02:41 because I already kind of have this like stigma of like I lose everything. So everyone's just like, of course Rachel lost it. She's like, it was really frustrating. Cause I already kind of have this like stigma of like, I lose everything. So everyone's just like, of course, Rachel lost it. She's like, no, like it's. It's like one thing to lose a ring or something small. It's not really going to be like, guys, trust me. Like I didn't just lose a massive dress. It's one of one. It's huge.
Starting point is 00:02:58 I bought it for this day. This is, you know, and I just. Cause it's in one of those bags probably. You know, it's like, I haven't left the property. The dress hasn't left the locker room. Sure. How is this gone? Did it just get feet and walk away?
Starting point is 00:03:10 Oh, I don't know. And so she's like, this is so frustrating. Why is my dress not here? And so she said she wasn't assuming like someone took it or whatever. She was like, someone, you know, maybe on accident, someone they thought it was there. So she goes then into the high school
Starting point is 00:03:27 and said she just goes room by room, just like maybe someone's got it in the room or something. That's when you know you go to a small high school. I get, yeah. Room by room. I'm like. You needed that dress. Cause she was also like, I mean, what,
Starting point is 00:03:38 I was already at school. Like I was about to walk in my volleyball spandex. She's like, I needed this dress. Yeah. And so anyway, she goes room to room to room and ends up finding it in the janitor's like office. Was the janitor there smelling it? Oh, is this yours?
Starting point is 00:03:58 Yeah, sorry about that. Sorry, I thought it was my mom. Sorry about that. Yeah. Uh oh, I think this tight my mom nor a cat. Every Monday morning we're taking grandma to the spa, yeah. Go for a vodka? Anyway, so I was great. Oh.
Starting point is 00:04:33 Yeah, it was just insane. That is insane. And I was like, do you like, I assume you told so much? He's like, yeah, I told people nothing happened. I was like, that sucks. That is so weird. Hey, yeah, how do I file the janitor stole my dress? Yeah, there's not a checkbox for that.
Starting point is 00:04:49 And it's not like, it's just, it's interesting because it's not like extremely inappropriate. It's not very strange. Well, it's illegal, I guess, to steal something, property. Yeah. If that's what happened, we don't know. So there was no confrontation with the janitor. I don't know what. Yeah. I guess not. I think he was just an odd guy. I just, it sounds like it just let him do his thing. Did
Starting point is 00:05:12 you ever get a background on why he was just driving around in his lawnmower? Good point. No. Okay. We never went back to that. I don't know why he was driving around town a lot more, but wow. Anyway, it's fun. Yeah, Angie Coop has been working on this coffee shop in like downtown Dyke Iowa for the last like year and a half or so probably and it's like only a couple weeks out from opening So, okay, it's really fun. I mean it looks it's crazy. How nice this is for a county that doesn't have a single stoplight Yeah, I mean it's like it's nice like all the like furnishes like it it's decorated super well, like it's awesome. It's so cool being there. And I love-
Starting point is 00:05:47 And you've seen like before. Yes, I mean, it was nasty. Yeah. It was just a gross old building. Right, it was probably like, how are they ever gonna make this cool? Yeah, it's impressive. So anyway, I brought my whole,
Starting point is 00:05:59 so we could stay in Iowa longer, I brought my whole like desktop computer setup this weekend and so we could stay up there and we didn brought my whole desktop computer setup this weekend and so we could stay up there and we didn't get back to 12.30 a.m. last night. But anyway, so I brought my whole monitor, Mac Mini, everything and just set up at the coffee shop yesterday. But man, it's distracting. You can see downtown.
Starting point is 00:06:16 I mean, just like every strange thing you can imagine drives by there. Do you, yeah, if you're doing work at a coffee shop, would you prefer to be distracted or would you prefer not? If you had're doing work at a coffee shop, would you prefer to be distracted or would you prefer not, like, if you had a perfect spot in a coffee shop, what would you choose? I don't know, because yesterday's setup was like,
Starting point is 00:06:33 no one's here, no one's really doing anything. So the only movement I do see is cars driving by, so I'm always looking. Who's that? Like, I'm gonna know them. Right, it doesn't matter though. You'll always look, just in case, you know? So I don gonna know them. Right. It doesn't matter though. You'll always look just in case. So I don't know.
Starting point is 00:06:46 Maybe I need more. I like seeing the door. I think I like seeing the door to answer your question. Yes. I don't want my back to the door. Yeah, I think 90% of the time I'm the same way. Like I want to, if I'm in a coffee shop, I'm in a public place for a reason,
Starting point is 00:06:59 I'm looking to have a little bit of like distraction. Have you heard about this new coworking space in Kansas City? What's it called? Yard? Switch yards? All switch yards. I have heard about it. People are talking about it.
Starting point is 00:07:10 Yeah. I'm a little, little jaded maybe a little like pessimistic. Well, I just don't understand. Everyone's like, dude, you gotta come with me. I can get you guest pass like switch yards. Like it's so fun. It's like so many people were there. Like you would know so many people like,
Starting point is 00:07:24 well, if I'm trying to get work done, like why do I, I don't want people around. Yeah. Right? It's a, it's a tough balance of like, yeah, why would I go to see a bunch of other people? But there is some energy about being around other people when you work. It's like, yeah, we go to coffee shops,
Starting point is 00:07:38 but those are strangers. Like I want to see 1% people I know at a coffee shop. And how good of a friend do you want them to be? Oh, C minus. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like I've seen Harrison at a coffee shop. It's like, dang it, we got to catch up. Yeah, it was 45 minutes.
Starting point is 00:07:53 Yeah, but like if I see Tymon, we're good. You know, yeah. We won't even talk. Yeah, I'll just be like, hey man. Yeah, I'll ignore you. Yeah. Eyebrows. Yeah, we're good.
Starting point is 00:08:04 Yeah, see you see my best friend. Because it's. Yeah, we're good. Yeah. Uh, yeah. Cause it's fun to be around people. It's fun to be like, Oh, that's what the kids are wearing these days, you know? But like, that's a good, yeah. Everyone talks about the switcheroo saying about, and their main pitch is like, Oh, so, so and so is there. So and so is there. It's like, that sounds awesome. But I'm trying to get the work done. Yeah. Yeah. Uh, Will Sam Henniger, a few other people have like, been like, dude, there's a lot of good people. Will makes it sound like he's like, dude,
Starting point is 00:08:30 like they don't monitor that thing very well. You can just, as long as like somebody lets you in, you can get in. And I'm like, well, I'm not going to pay money to go with that. It's like a hundred bucks a month, I think. And I'm like, I don't know if I need to spend, but you get unlimited coffee. It's like, I think I can get quite a bit of coffee for a month coffee shop Wi-Fi though Wi-Fi. They have fast Wi-Fi. Yeah Yeah, I don't know. Hey, I
Starting point is 00:08:55 I'd be interested to check it out at one point, but I don't think I want to join what if we went there I mean everyone's working what if we went there to shoot like a like a video? Okay Sorry, we're doing our thing. You do your thing. Yeah. Don't mind us. That's work for us. We're doing boomer versus millennial at a coffee shop. Sorry. It's going to get a bit loud. We're doing a loud person at a coffee shop, loud person at a coffee shop stereotypes. Part six. We're doing every person at a co-working space. Tom, you ever been to something like that? A WeWork or anything? I don't think so.
Starting point is 00:09:27 Like just like a, I guess, tax per marketer, there was like some people that kind of like had like spots where they'd come work that weren't like part of the company. So I guess I kind of have. Oh yeah. Yeah, I've seen that, right? Right, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:40 That spot was nice. It is. Good natural light. Oh, a hundred bucks a month for natural light. Well, you can't get that outside. No, you go to a park for that. You can't go to the porch of a coffee shop That's nice. How often are you writing things on paper? Why do you ask? Oh, I'm just thinking about the way as I work and sometimes it's like for whatever reason I can't do it on my computer. I have to have paper I write on paper once a year and it's my annual,
Starting point is 00:10:05 like, do I have money or not? Like sit down and it's like, where is it at? How much do I have? Do I need to be stressed or like, once a year I just check in with myself and it's gotta be pen and paper. For whatever reason, it's easier to be, it's easier to de-stress on pen and paper.
Starting point is 00:10:24 Maybe that's what it is. Like I did something the other day. It was like, whoo, money feels a little tight right now. I need to like justify how much money I'm going to have coming in soon enough or whatever. Like, all right, let me write it on a pen and paper. I can do the same thing on a note, you know, or whatever, but it's not the same.
Starting point is 00:10:38 Rachel recently has said that I remind her a lot of her dad because I think when you're a farmer, there's very much a seasonality. Did you know that? Yeah, that's very obvious. There's seasons with farmers, but as far as like spring, lot of money going out. Fall, a lot of money coming in.
Starting point is 00:10:54 In addition to that, you know, they've got, you're in kind of the stock market, but it's like the crop market. You know, there's just, there's money in all the different places. And more recently, I've like, I'll be stressed about something. I'm like, oh, forgot about Coinbase.
Starting point is 00:11:08 $1,200 at Coinbase. Okay. Score, you know, a couple of weeks go by. And I'm like, I forgot that Venmo holds money too. Yes, dude. Dude, I have $800 at Venmo. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Sweet, I just keep finding it.
Starting point is 00:11:20 And that's what's so fun about getting a pen, putting paper out and writing down Venmo 800. Get to add it to PayPal 466 oh, yeah, you forget it PayPal's easy forget about PayPal. Yeah cash app. I got a few few hundreds in there I Win what were those things called NFTs got really big you get some NFTs. Yep. Okay, any NFT market. Mm-hmm How's that going? Whatever like negative a thousand percent is I think I've got a little something in there Nesting okay tiny egg. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, it's kind of fun. You find stuff So you went in yeah, have you have you done all that cut you it you did some with Bitcoin at one point
Starting point is 00:11:56 Yeah, I got out before it went up. It's fine. Hey, well that that's half of it. That's part of it. Yeah Yeah, so you got in late and then got out early, or did you get in early? I got in moderately early. Okay. And- So you made money. Well, I should have. I let Trey convince me to put my Bitcoin in this like,
Starting point is 00:12:17 place that filed for bankruptcy. Oh, like the Tom Brady one? It was something adjacent to that. I think it was affected by it. Yeah. Anyway, it was called BlockFi and they would invest your Bitcoin for you. And so you give them that, it's like, yeah, your money's here.
Starting point is 00:12:32 Gotcha. Unless we go to business and then it is not here. It's like, yeah, but Bitcoin's gonna last forever. Oh yeah, nothing's been around longer. So yeah, I lost probably $2,700 of that. Oh wow. Yeah, enough to hurt. Kind of a, yeah, enough to hurt. Kind of a dent.
Starting point is 00:12:46 Yeah. Yeah. That's a few switch yard months. That's a lot of natural light. Few months at the yard. Yeah, that was a bummer. So all I need to invoice trade for that. I keep forgetting.
Starting point is 00:12:58 You should. Yeah. And think about interest. I was two years ago. Think about interest. You got to think, you got to consider interest. Think about interest and principal. Yeah. As grow. I need to years ago. Think about interest. You got to consider interest. Think about interest in principal. Yeah.

God, could you just take the truck somehow? Just sweep it out of here. I know it's heavier than even our house, but somehow just take the truck.

Yeah, I was talking to Tate today I was like I think some people like Gunner like Gunner's gonna be one of those guys that someday has ten million dollars and no One ever knew about it. Yeah, cuz he just like oh, yeah, I just bought some like crappy duplexes in 2015 and never told anyone about crazy frugal. Yeah. Yeah, I, well, I guess congrats now, but how fun was it there?

Starting point is 00:14:50 What? Did I mess it? Nice, no, you read it correctly. Monday schmores. Did you read that in the subtitles? You read it correctly. Yep, time has said. Yeah, time had told us.
Starting point is 00:15:01 Time has says. Yeah, today's been- Full of ideas. I went out- Crazy day, It's been dark all day. I went on a walk. It's like a darkness retreat. I've been trying to walk more again. That's good.
Starting point is 00:15:11 And- 75 soft. At what point in the day did you walk? Yeah, good question. Thanks for asking. Yeah. You're welcome. I started around 745 and it was nasty over here, nice over here. And I ended about 825, 830, something like that
Starting point is 00:15:26 in the last 10 minutes or so it started raining. But then it started pouring down rain and it has been raining off and on, or maybe just on ever since. Mainly on. Yeah. Yeah, we went down to the basement today because our basement floods anyway.
Starting point is 00:15:39 It's one of the many things our previous homeowner left us as a little gift. In addition to the chicken wire for the rabbits, they were holding in the basement. But anyway, leaks a lot today, which is all time. I never see anything like it. It was leaking so much that I got like to shop back out. I was like, we got like vacuum this up
Starting point is 00:15:57 before it just like permanently corrodes our whole basement. Full like the whole basement or like one area? It's only one area. And it's like the water is clear So I think that's a good thing like it's it's straight for it. Like this is rain water This is not like yeah going through dirt and mud like we're hopefully it's you know, it's not like yeah really bad But yeah, I mean, it's like a really good stream I'll I'll text it to you guys in time and you can put it on on camera right now
Starting point is 00:16:22 It's a good stream and four little parts and so. Yeah, we were down there. That's one thing I don't I don't I would like learn more about is like. Foundation foundation and you know that like landscaping can help that. Have you heard this like grading and like. There's some rubber wall. Oh, I didn't know this. Okay, what's that?
Starting point is 00:16:44 It's this wall. Guess what's made out of. Yeah, I was gonna know this. Okay, what's that? It's this wall. Guess what's made out of it. Yeah, I was gonna say, what's flavor? Yeah, something about that. Yeah, I just know there's like things you could do that are maybe a little more cheaper than just like re-bricking your basement. Yeah, bricked up basement.
Starting point is 00:17:03 Yeah. So yeah, but yeah, crazy day. A lot of 20 hour, we were watching the news because the storms, the radar looks so bad. I was like, turn on the news maybe. How did it, was it around us much? Because I, yeah, I didn't really see much except for the nasty sky.
Starting point is 00:17:20 I went and played basketball for this at the church. Oh, that's nice. And yeah, it was nasty out there. It looked like it was dark. It was nighttime. It's like some of like Egyptian plague. It's been like that for like eight hours today. But the news is great.
Starting point is 00:17:34 It's like a yearly pen and paper, like about every six months, you just gotta turn on the news, just see what they're up to, see what they're saying. And it's fun. Today was actually fun because they were so chaotic and scrambling that they turned off their news voice.
Starting point is 00:17:49 It's kind of like when you see a really flamboyant guy stressed out and he drops the gay voice. You're like, see, I knew you had it in ya. It's like, guys, seriously, we should get out of here. You're like, ah, gotcha. I knew you didn't always talk like that. It's the same thing with these news anchors. And they're not like, later on at six,
Starting point is 00:18:07 a man who claims to be Bigfoot, but is he legit? Yes, I've been hearing about the Bigfoot. Yes, he is legit. Back to you. And now it's just like, Amanda, fake you, Robert. They're doing like a starting lineup of like, and now six foot one journalism major. Uh, but no, when they were like screaming like this, it's like, there's like, there's like dead spaces. They're like, kind of like bickering with each other. It's kind of nice.
Starting point is 00:18:38 Hey, can you pull up that satellite? It's not, it's not working right now. All right. Do we go to, should we go to link to what link to is? But I'm like, I'm here in their lingoingo. It's nice. I do a guy's walking around the background. He's not supposed to be there Yeah, what they say janitor stole my dress they pull They peel is it peel back the curtain is that the phrase like yeah It's like you get to see like the pool pool or peel pool theater pool back Pool act the court and do you, I can see either.
Starting point is 00:19:05 You pool. You keep your cards close to the chest or close to the vest? It's kind of like, well both are my torso. Oh yeah. Well my chest is on my vest. Peel back the curtain. Seems like there's two curtains really close to each other. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:19:18 Peel back. Pool back. Pool back the curtain. Pool. Pool back. Like it's like, it's pooled up. Oh my gosh. Get the shot back. We gotta pull back the curtain. We're pool back. Like it's like, it's pulled up. Oh my gosh, get the shot back. We gotta pull back the curtain.
Starting point is 00:19:26 Pull back. Yeah, one of my friends is a meteorologist and he like lives for the tornadoes and stuff. Yeah, he gets pumped. Yeah, they're Super Bowl. 100%. They put on their gay voice and have a blast. He said that many times.
Starting point is 00:19:42 Let's do the ads. Three, two, one, let's do the ads. Let's do the ads. Three, two, one. Let's do the ads. Let's do the ads. First one. This is a real life story. I mentioned it last week, but Rachel and I king size bed, wanting to get cozy earth sheets. We've actually, we bought them two fun things.
Starting point is 00:19:57 I want to say real life examples. One, it is fun to see your shopping cart go from $375 to $225. It's just kind of crazy. Like 40% is a lot. your shopping cart go from $375 to $225. It's just kind of crazy, like 40% is a lot. And you're not used to seeing that kind of discount code. So I got to experience that firsthand. GRKC promo code, oh wow, it's like half off. Now it's a no brainer.
Starting point is 00:20:17 And then you think like, I've already invested in a mattress. What am I gonna not invest in sheets? I'm gonna spend a third of my life and not invest in the sheets? $225 for not invest in sheets? Yeah, I spent a third of my life and not invest in the sheets. $225 for like top notch sheets. Top notch. Honestly, I personally believe that the sheets might be more important than the mattress. They're both.
Starting point is 00:20:34 Maybe. Don't get twisted. The mattress is important. But if it's a decent mattress with really good sheets is better than a really good mattress with terrible sheets. All right. Hear me out, hear me out. Like non-breathable, terrible sheets. The mattress affects how you feel in the morning,
Starting point is 00:20:49 but the sheets affect how you feel at night. Yes, dude. Like when you're getting into bed, that's how the sheets make you feel. I, multiple times this week, I'm gonna say two, I've been in bed and just really enjoyed top of the toes on the cozy earth sheets. Oh, you don't talk about like- I thought you meant it's poking out like Wicked Witch of the East or the cozy earth sheets. You know what I'm talking about?
Starting point is 00:21:05 I thought you meant it's poking out like Wicked Witch of the East or something. No, that's psychotic. No, it's terrible. They have to be underneath. No, no, no, 100%. It's gotta be tucked under. All right, so they're touched,
Starting point is 00:21:15 but your feet are straight up. They are, yeah, when I get in bed and like, oh yeah, just like you kind of move them back and forth and it just so soft on that. It's like they're massaging you. Yes, yes. So yeah, that was fun. Second and it just so soft. It's like they're massaging you. Yes, yes. So yeah, that was fun. Second thing is just firsthand experience.
Starting point is 00:21:29 I think I purchased them Sunday night and they're gonna be here by Wednesday morning. Nice, quick. That's nice. And things that probably won't move the needle, but also like I love about Cozy Earth is they always come with a really nice bag. They do yeah use it
Starting point is 00:21:45 Yeah, oh Katherine Katherine uses her cozy earth bags all the time. Yeah, how much for this bag? Yeah, so check out coz you're you can kind of sort on there by like fabric I would just recommend whether cheats or anything sort by this goes from bamboo because that's the good stuff so good That's like the high quality stuff So I find anything dogger sweatshirt just like a cozy little sleep shirt or something or the bed sheets.

Starting point is 00:23:06 What's the s'mores? We're doing rainy day activities. It's just been a rainy day. It's been a rainy day. My s'mores have their own sponsor of sorts. My s'mores are brought to you by Rachel Coupe Triplet. Oh. I asked her, it was like when you texted,
Starting point is 00:23:20 Brad texted a couple of hours ago, I was like, what if we did s'mores of rainy day activities? I was like, oh, Rachel, you'll love this. And immediately she rattles off like seven of them. I was like, that's great. Yeah, you can do all of them. Yeah, so these are brought to you by Rachel. These are Rachel's rainy day activities.
Starting point is 00:23:33 Don't you feel like women, sorry to judge, general, whatever, but like girls love rainy day activities. Guys like them, I like, I was, there's my idea, rainy day activities. But like, there's something, girls just love the idea of like, getting the vibes right. Yes. So. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:50 Okay. Let's do some rainy activities. You dominated. Was the last one breakfast food? I think it was. Oh, yeah. You dominated. Did I?
Starting point is 00:23:58 Ty and I got like 19 votes. Bananas didn't win. Many votes. Neither did milk. Milk all caps. All right, let's do Brad, Jake, Tymon. Age. Age range.
Starting point is 00:24:14 All right, my first one, the one that inspired this thing was, initially I just wrote down in my notes, there's no better spot to be on a rainy day than a coffee shop. Oh, you're leaving the house. I love, yeah, I like being in the coffee shop. Oh, I love leaving the house. I love, yeah. I like being in the coffee shop. And then while you're doing work, it starts pouring down rain.
Starting point is 00:24:30 Like you. Yeah. I didn't think of that at all, but that is so true. And then it's like, we're a fraternity of people in the coffee shop. No one else is coming. Just us. No one else is leaving. Yeah. No one's coming to save you. All right. it's just us. That's a great answer. I don't know, there's just something about it. Like, and it feels, sometimes when you're in a coffee shop and you're working, it's like, I would love to be outside right now. It looks so nice, but not when it's raining.
Starting point is 00:24:55 That's a good point. Yeah. Yeah, you're like, I'm already in here. I'm glad it's terrible out. Yes. What I wouldn't do to be in Napanee and Main Street Roasters when it rains. It's like when you go on vacation,
Starting point is 00:25:04 you kind of want it to be terrible back home. I want to be blue skies and sunny when I'm traveling. Right. Want to snow. Yes. All right. My first one. Rachel said reading.
Starting point is 00:25:15 Sure. Just great reading day. She's put in some chapters today for sure. Yeah. Put in some chapters. Put in some chapters. I mean, she put in the work. So, yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:25 Good. Reading on a rainy day. mean, she put in the work. So yeah. Good. Reading on a rainy day. It's good. Watching a movie. Yeah. On my list. And I'm saying, I'm picturing at home. Brad probably thinks like theater.
Starting point is 00:25:35 How fun though? When you're at a theater and you hear it start pouring down. I don't think that was the theater next to it. Oh, it's coming down outside. Is it raining or is it just Dolby? Is that, it's like it's behind Is it raining or is it just Dolby? It's like it's behind me. Mission Impossible's in the theater next to us.
Starting point is 00:25:47 It could be that. Isn't it a fun phrase to say, oh, it's coming down outside? Wow, do you see it? Yeah. It's coming down. Yeah. But I'm picturing more at home, curled up with a movie. Cozy Earth blanket.
Starting point is 00:25:58 Curled up. Yeah. Good. And then running to the apartment complex office for a spare key because you locked yourself into your apartment is one of my favorites. So what you just like, yeah, just go for it. So this actually happened only about five hours ago. Oh wow.
Starting point is 00:26:21 Before I was already running a few minutes late to rehearsal. No biggie. I'll, I'll, I'll make up the time on the ground. Uh, walking, uh, walking, starting to walk down the steps. Where are my car keys? Oh, oh wait, they're inside. And I, and I locked them behind me. So I immediately like called the, just like the number of the, on like Google maps of our apartment complex, like, um, and I was just like, Hey, I just locked myself out of the apartment. Like, what can I do? And she's like, actually, Kelly shot the Kelly. Yeah. You can just like, if you come to the office, we can get you a, like a spare key. If you bring it right back. So I was like, all right, great. I'm like, I'm on my way. So I just like ran there from,
Starting point is 00:27:03 from our apartment. They, and it was raining. So I'm on my way. So I just like ran there from our apartment. And it was raining, so raining the activity. And I only was like 15 minutes late rehearsal. So not too bad. And you play like a 15 year old boy. So it's kind of perfect. Yeah, right. My mom drove me. What was I supposed to do?
Starting point is 00:27:18 Talk to my mom. All right. Oh yeah, that was both yours, right? Good, good work. Rachel said, I think she was tapping into her childhood here. She said build a fort. Oh, that's so she said there's my list What's it? Yeah. Yeah, she said there is nothing better than building a fort on a rainy day It's so fun. You got to play inside somehow so fun. I Yeah, I love building forts with the kids. I get really like antsy when they fall over though
Starting point is 00:27:43 I do not like it like when the blankets fall or like the couch cushions don't like that. That's not a very good wall bow All right. My next one is just in general sleeping whether it's taking a nap or just sleeping in Yeah, or rainy nights best sleep. I really wanted to get nap. But yeah, I was pumped You thought someone's gonna to steal your last. Right. Had to take advantage. It was on my list of sleeping. And then my next one, I only have two left to be honest, being honest.
Starting point is 00:28:17 And one of them is not really related to me. So I'm not going to say, I must say growing up, it was really fun to play football in the rain. Okay. I loved like sliding around, really fun to play football in the rain. Okay. I loved like sliding around, diving for catches and stuff in the rain. Yeah. I love the rain and like slippery, you know, because it kind of helped me as a non-fast kid,
Starting point is 00:28:35 like have a little more of, you know, a chance. Yeah, it's all kind of even playing field. Right. It's an equalizer. Yeah. So I can think of one time specifically, I think the chiefs were playing the Dolphins and it was like halftime on a Sunday and my friend and I went out and played in the rain
Starting point is 00:28:50 and it was so much fun. So like grass clippings everywhere, you know, whatever. Yeah. This is a quick sidebar, but I remember when I first moved to Kansas City, I thought it was so cool. And keep in mind, I'm 25 years old at the time, but thought it was so cool, like that I'm watching the Chiefs game on TV and I'm experiencing the old at the time, but thought it was so cool. Like that I'm watching the chiefs game on TV and I'm experiencing the same weather they are.
Starting point is 00:29:08 I'm like, it's rainy here too. Because they're in the same town as me that I'd never gotten to do that before. Oh yeah. It's like you're watching things on TV and you're like, oh, I guess it's raining in St. Louis because the Cardinals game got delayed. It's great here.
Starting point is 00:29:20 You know, whatever. Wow. You've never lived in the same city as a sports team. Like it's never like my radar is their radar. Springfield Cardinals. Springfield Cardinals. But that's about it. I don't know if that didn't really make it much to TV.
Starting point is 00:29:31 That was, I'm there. You're there. Yeah, I thought that was so neat. It was like, oh, it's getting foggy here at Kauffman State. I'm like, it is foggy. Dude, it's foggy here. That's crazy. That's so interesting.
Starting point is 00:29:41 I feel that way still to this day of like, when it's cold outside, I'm like, I know how cold it is. Right. It's I feel that way still to this day of like when it's cold outside I'm like you're playing I know how cold it is, right? It's like really cold and they don't have sleeves on I get if I were me Travis Kelsey I'm gonna talk to him how cold it was that one night because I experienced it too. Were you cold Travis? You were during the dolphin. That's awesome. Yeah, I had to go get my car keys that night. It was so cold All right, All right. Love the way Rachel worded this one.
Starting point is 00:30:08 Nice warm drink. Nice warm drink. And I think this goes, this is like a nice tea or maybe a nice hot cocoa. Dang, that, yeah. That's a good, I was going to say hot cocoa. Okay, but just a nice warm drink. That's a better answer.
Starting point is 00:30:20 Can I go ahead? Or broad. And take the liberty of combining all three of yours? You have a fort and you're reading in the fort with your nice warm drink. Okay. Are you there? God, it's me vibes. That's awesome.
Starting point is 00:30:35 Yeah. All right. All right. Um, this one, I'm kind of just running out of picks. So actually, no, no, no, no. This one, I was going to do one that was, wasn't quite as like relatable to me. This one I love, um, like you make some like warm meal or snack and you watch a YouTube video. I just, I love like those things in tandem. I love setting a vibe for like, just like a YouTube video specifically, like I think it's different
Starting point is 00:31:00 than a movie. It's like, I'm less likely to be eating during a movie than like, like a YouTube video. It's like, while I eat. Yeah. And I feel like it hits better when it's different than a movie. It's like I'm less likely to be eating during a movie than like a YouTube video. It's like while I eat. And I feel like it hits better when it's raining. They kind of take the same amount of time. Maybe like you've got this like 17 minute YouTube video you've been meaning to watch for a couple of days anyway. Now I've got this meal in front of me. I could do both perfectly together.
Starting point is 00:31:18 What else am I going to do with rain outside? Yeah. Yeah. Good point. And then this one I just thought of, but a classic from, from childhood jumping on the trampoline. When it starts pouring outside and it's like, you check, there's not like a lightning then, and you go crazy on the trampoline. That was
Starting point is 00:31:35 like a huge, oh, I never did that. That was so fun. Oh, you, you've never done that? I don't know. No, I don't think so. I think. Come on over sometime. I couldn't stand next to the windows when there were storms. I definitely wasn't getting on the trampoline, you know. Was that your choice or your parents? That was my mom. She's big on the lightning. No shower, no stand by the windows. Don't stand on your left leg.
Starting point is 00:31:54 Don't drink anything with vinegar. Yeah, it's vinegar and it's also. I think it's polyester shirts. Is it? Yeah. An oregano. It attracts it. Oregano, they don't like oregano.
Starting point is 00:32:03 It's polyester. It's a certain color as well. I would have to go to the basement if I had touched an aluminum bat in the last few days. So during the spring, during baseball season, I would go to the basement. The rest of the family got to be upstairs. And you'd be like, what's going on up there?
Starting point is 00:32:16 And you'd be like, don't talk to us, aluminum head. Aluminum boy, yeah. Couldn't use Etch-a-Sketches magnetic stuff in there. Yeah. Was it you that was telling me? Yeah, plastic hangers only. Well, was it plastic hangers only? I was gonna say, I thought when it's rainy out,
Starting point is 00:32:31 you would only eat the hot dog buns not the hot dogs. Like you had to wait till it was dry out. That was my mom's real grown up and she just kind of passed it down to us. Yeah, that's right. Just buns. And I wanna say. No fillings.
Starting point is 00:32:43 Saran wrap your feet? Is that you? It was Saran wrap. Well, there's a like a layer of like onion, like you do like a thin slice of like onion on your foot underneath your foot and then you saran wrap it. Was that tough to get down the stairs like that? Or did you just, I already had onions in the basement. You guys got basement onions. That's right.
Starting point is 00:32:59 That's right. Okay. Very good. All right. Jake, you have one last pick here. Timon has one last pick? Jake has one last pick. Yeah, YouTube trampoline.
Starting point is 00:33:07 YouTube trampoline. Rachel said bake off. Oh. She said her and her friends, I guess, just like the girls come over and they just do, you know, Butler County Bake Off. I don't know. That sounds fun.
Starting point is 00:33:19 Yeah. Our family's done a couple of times, like, chopped, like the show, but just like half the kids are one team, half the kids are the other team, and you just go off. And none of it tastes good, because you don't know what we're doing. Because there was a six-year-old on your team. Yeah, but it was a fun time.
Starting point is 00:33:37 And then like your parents are judges or are they... Yeah, that's fun. Chopped. That's great. Because Chopped is one of the only shows we knew, because it was Andy Griffith show at home I mean among very little other things and then it was like in when we went to Branson. There's a TV put on chopped See I sometimes beat Bobby Flay
Starting point is 00:33:55 Usually chopped all the cooking shows are truly all the same to me I got over the difference in whatever Gordon Ramsay's is couldn't tell you what the name of that is house kitchen. Hey You set me up. You effing set me up. Nice, you killed me, man. Yeah, and then Chopped and then, whoa, Chopped has done 62 seasons. I should know more about Chopped, I guess.
Starting point is 00:34:23 Wow. 62 seasons. I think they should only let one season per year because now we can't judge how long that is. 62 seasons? On June 24th, oh well, they already know. June 24th, 2025, a new episode's coming out. It's called A Quail Tail.
Starting point is 00:34:39 Oh, I can see your quail tail. Quail tail heart. Okay. Chopped, beat Bobby Flay, that's different. Oh, what about Master Chef? That's someone. Top Chef. Oh yeah, Master Chef.
Starting point is 00:34:52 Yeah, what are those? Master Chief. I didn't mess with those. Great British baking show. Baking show. All the same, don't know the difference. But you guys watch Chopped. Cake Boss.
Starting point is 00:35:03 Cake Boss, Is it Cake? What's that show called? Oh, Cake Wars, I think was one. I see. We had... Storage Cake Wars. I think it was Cake Wars. We did watch that one occasionally. That was fun.
Starting point is 00:35:13 I mean, you just like, it's just like a four-foot tall cake and like the dramatic moment, it's starting to fall over. And it's like, I don't know what we do. Wow. We have two minutes left. So this preceded the like, the new age, like, is this cake or nachos? They were for sure cake.
Starting point is 00:35:27 Oh yeah, it was all cake and you knew it, but it was just had to fit a theme. Tarmin's watching Cake Wars. Cake, both of them. Both of them lock it in. Yep, that's cake. End of the episode, I knew it. Yeah, he's like missing to read the whole show.
Starting point is 00:35:42 They do it every time. Cake the whole time. Watches the Quilltip episode. Quill! Quilltip. That's Quill. That's good. All right. My last one is playing cards. Oh, that's great. That part of it on my list. Yeah, just a fun time. I want to stay true to myself. I had puzzle on my list. I hate puzzles. Hey, I don't like that was the one I was going to pick, but it wouldn't be true to myself. Yes, I've never in my life unless it was like when I was six and it was with my mom. I'm like
Starting point is 00:36:13 amazingly bad at puzzles. Like I helped Bo the other day with the puzzle and I mean it's probably 30 pieces and it I Wasn't great. I was like, oh my gosh, that one did go there. But oh, good job. I don't think I'm too great myself, but I'm very out of practice. I should get a puzzle for the next time it rains and just like test my, see where I'm at with the puzzles.
Starting point is 00:36:34 Yeah. You should puzzle off. Puzzle off. I'm asking Chad GVT about this. Go for it. Go for it. Yeah, we did it two years ago, we did. That was fun.
Starting point is 00:36:41 That was pretty fun. That was high intensity. Yeah. People who excel at puzzles That was high intensity. Yeah. People who excel at puzzles usually demonstrate logical and mathematical intelligence. Okay. Visual and spatial intelligence. I feel like you have all these.
Starting point is 00:36:53 Fluid intelligence. No one likes drinks more than you. Oh my gosh, that's true. But what if you don't try or care about puzzles? Does it still apply to me? Maybe I would be good, I don't know, it just doesn't, it doesn't seem,
Starting point is 00:37:09 like the juice doesn't seem worth the squeeze. Do you have a low tolerance for ambiguity or frustration? I don't know what that means. Just kidding, that's a joke. Ambigu- ah. If it lasts longer than four hours, see a doctor. Oh yeah. The frustration.
Starting point is 00:37:24 I have, I have been frustrated for four hours. Or just lower fluid intelligence. I've had fluid in my frustration for four hours. There was. Um, yeah. Anyway. All right. So I said coffee shop, sleeping, playing football, playing cards. Jake said reading, building a fort, Jake slash Rachel. But don't, don't put Rachel on the thing
Starting point is 00:37:46 because everyone will vote for her. Just vote for the words as they are. Reading, build a fort, nice warm drink, bake off. Timon said, watching a movie, running the apartment complex to get a spare key because you locked yourself out of your apartment. Make some type of warm meal or snack and watch a YouTube video and jumping on the trampoline.
Starting point is 00:38:03 I don't have any honorable mentions, but. I had swimming. That was also like, you gotta make sure there's no lightning. But it hits. That actually is a good one. That is kind of why it feels so wrong. Marty in water and more water.
Starting point is 00:38:15 It's so much fun. Yeah. Cause then you're not, you're like, if you're used to the temperature of one, you're just fine in whatever environment you are. Out or in. That's fun. Kind of like at the lake, you get caught in the rain and like whoever's boat
Starting point is 00:38:27 actually like you're on like they're stressed, but no one else is, you know, not my boat. I don't even really understand the dangers going on here. This is fun. How fun was it at camp when it was raining? It was great. Cause also once again, I'm not in charge. So it's like, oh, that's great for us. Then again, if it's like, like, sometimes this can mess with like the plans and at Canter Cook when it rains, me and Brad are in charge. I was gonna say, I am kind of in charge, yeah.
Starting point is 00:38:51 We're on charge of like the safety aspect of it. Yeah, we're seeing like, oh, the lake levels up, we're losing our sailboats. I don't have worry about that. But it was like, hey, it's supposed to be fourth period right now, but it's thunderstorms. Programs, what do you got?
Starting point is 00:39:03 Everyone's heading to the gym. Can you remember anything you guys did? I mean, so many just like guys versus girls games. Or just, you know, I think I had always had like a couple in my back pocket, like PowerPoints, I'm not doing for K-Lives and stuff. Like I've got these reserved for rainy day. Do you have some go-tos?
Starting point is 00:39:18 We did a Hollywood Squares a lot. You ever do that? No. So you know what Hollywood Squares is? No, I think I can imagine it, but I don't remember how it was played. It was a game show like back in the day. It's like a 2d, like they can't see each other kind of thing. Oh, no, it's something different. This is like a, it's like tic tac toe basically. But what would happen was like, the question would be asked, like let's say there's, so there's nine people in these, like each square has a celebrity in it,
Starting point is 00:39:43 basically. Okay. And so it was always like, Hey, so, Hey, Jake, you're, you're in, you're doing Hollywood squares, come up with a celebrity to get in this thing. And so, you know, yeah, George W. Bush or Chuck Norris or, you know, Phil in the plague, all these different ridiculous Cleopatra, all these different things. And then I think the way we did it was we had like, we had them ask the question to the kids. And if the kids got it right, then they got either the X or the O. I see.
Starting point is 00:40:09 And so. That's kind of fun. Yeah, it was kind of fun. A good game for like middle schoolers and below. I think Matt Kelly was the one who told me about this one. You ever play a build it, build it with your bodies. Okay. You ready to do that?
Starting point is 00:40:21 You just separate them up into cabins or I don't know, August versus June, you know, it's always kind of fun. And it was just like, all right, right now it's like using only like 10 middle schoolers, like roast a marshmallow on a fire. Okay. And then it's like, you get like all these different options of people. Like some people are like the firewood and someone has an orange shirt. So like waving that and then someone's the marshmallow and you kind of get to easy hour just in like seven of those. Yeah. Did you ever?
Starting point is 00:40:46 Checking the radar. Was Four Scrapers and a bass drum? Was that something we made up or is that like a... I don't know what that is. What? Four Scrapers and a bass drum. Yeah. I mean sweeter than a honey on a bake. Honey. Four Scrapers and a bass drum was like back in the day. I mean, at Kanaka time, and they have this huge, every camp has this huge closet of random clothes that you like, that counselors can wear for skits.
Starting point is 00:41:11 They call it skit closet. And so a lot of times when it's somebody's birthday, you do like a birthday rap or birthday chant or whatever. And at K country, they always used a bass drum to help with that. And so you always got the bass drum to put in the middle and then you divide the room into four different teams and each team had a scraper.
Starting point is 00:41:29 And it was like, it was just like a spatula basically. And you put them on polar opposite ends of the, like four polar, four poles basically of the room. And you ask them a question and they have to run and they have to be the first one to smack the bass drum and then answer the question. That's a good one. Yeah, classic.
Starting point is 00:41:44 So it's just basically trivia. Yeah. Yeah. Bell ball. National treasure. Just watch it. Bell ball. So fun. Bell ball might be the most fun game in the entire world. Do you think like, yeah, what's more fun than bill ball? Like is pickle ball better than bill ball? Explain, explain how bell ball works. Bell ball is every man for themselves, dodge ball, but there's only one dodge ball. And if you have the dodge ball, you cannot move
Starting point is 00:42:17 besides obviously throwing it. Yeah, I can't like move about like your feet can't take steps. Correct. But if you don't have the dodge ball, there's no boundaries, like you can run around. We always played where once you get out, you have to go to your knees.
Starting point is 00:42:33 Oh yeah, zombie style. Yes, the only way to play. You go down to your knees, but then if anybody comes by you and you tap them below their knee, they're down, they're on their knees now and you get to jump back up, you're back in. So the game doesn't stop until only one person's left.
Starting point is 00:42:49 Yeah. Oh, it's so much fun. The trick when playing in an enclosed area, which you often are, is throw it at someone, like you should be like parallel with the wall you're throwing it with, that way it comes right back to you if you miss them. Oh, good.
Starting point is 00:43:02 Two throws. Yes. Second drink. And you can run to the ball, like you like- Ball or shot. Yeah, yeah, yeah. 100%. Yeah, you miss them. Oh, good. Two throws. Yes. Second drink. And you can run to the ball. Like you like run. Baller shot. Yeah, yeah, yeah. 100%. Yeah, you have to have the right room.
Starting point is 00:43:09 If it's too big for the amount of people or too small, but like, oh, it's the best. Yeah. I broke a ceiling fan in the K-Life house playing bell ball with the boys one time. Worth it. I was there for that. I do remember that.
Starting point is 00:43:23 Yeah. Sometimes we split up guys and girls, girls, who knows what they're doing. They're doing like a fashion show or something girly. And we would just put on space jam. Oh yeah. So fun. Half the kids are asleep, half the counselors are asleep.
Starting point is 00:43:34 Who cares? It's raining. Yeah, it's great. It's raining. It's a hard camp. So fun, dude. So fun. Anyway, that was Monday Schmores.
Starting point is 00:43:43 That was zany boys. Wild. Trivia zany boys. Wild. Trivia for your time. And did you know that over 85% of grass bed. What is a grass bed? Grass bed. So it's like this thing that you know. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:43:55 Sounds itchy. Honestly, it is. I wouldn't sleep on it if I were you. Yeah. But these cows do. 85% of grass beds are itchy. Every once in a while you get like Kentucky blue, maybe some Zoysh grass beds, nice.
Starting point is 00:44:12 But sorry, I was digressing. I was digressing. Neil digrass Tyson. Probably doesn't love American meat delivered, but we do. Did you know that over 85% of grass fed beef sold in the US stores is imported, Timon? I did know that and it's unfortunate, but I knew it because we talk about it a lot. We do talk about it a lot. But you know what? Good Ranchers is here to solve that problem. Jake,
Starting point is 00:44:34 tell them how they do it. So Timon, did you know how they do it? By growing it here. Tell them how they do it. Basically what Timon's trying to say. Timon, let me go ahead. Jake, go ahead. Timon, that's enough. Brad, you mind if I take this one? Take it, baby.
Starting point is 00:44:52 Timon, I got this. Here we go. Go ahead, Jake. That's enough. Camera on me. Jake, rock their world. Here we go. Three, two, one, let's rock.
Starting point is 00:45:01 American farmers, American seeds, American mammals, American birds, American fish, American mouths. It's the six step, the six, what are you looking around for? That's exactly what I was wanting you to say, yeah. American farmers, American seeds. Well, the seeds make the grass, the grass makes the bed,
Starting point is 00:45:23 and the cows lay on the bed, they get itchy, we slaughter them, we eat them. That's how it works, okay? I wasn't gonna say it. No, I needed to say it. You needed to say it. So that's how, that's kind of from the top down, that's how the business works, okay?
Starting point is 00:45:38 Right. The main thing that we wanna get across is that a lot of meat, you're gonna find the grocery store is overpriced.

Starting point is 00:46:28 Talk about it. Quick trip down to Brainsden and back one day. But on the way down, we were like, we got to stop for lunch somewhere. So, you know, I Google like places in Springfield to eat. One of the first things that popped up, I jokingly was like, we go to Cracker Barrel. And I think I say Bucky's and how Eric Hathorne's like, yeah, we, we go to Cracker Barrel and they're going to say Bucky's and how do you, Eric, Catherine's like, yeah, we should absolutely go to Cracker Barrel. I was like, really? And must not have been in a hurry. We had, yeah,
Starting point is 00:46:52 we had like an hour ish. Now. Yeah. Everything, everything you would imagine Springfield Cracker Barrel was, it was absolutely that it was, I mean, Cracker Barrel in and of itself. If you ever been time in like, it's just like this. I think so. Oh, once or twice. It's a weary wooden. Oh, yeah. It's buys. I like they got like, I remember kind of a gift shop. Oh yeah. Half of it's a gift shop. Yeah. They got like fires going. I think like 365, like no matter what time of year, a big old fireplace, all these fun,
Starting point is 00:47:20 like decorations and yeah, I mean, but then just we were, we were the only, like Catherine was the only person there underweight. I think, I mean, just everyone, like there was a guy, Catherine goes, that guy has like one of those things under his nose, you know, mustache. Yeah. You know, I'm talking about like the breathing tubes. Oh, I see. Yeah. I don't know if, I don't know if he needs to be eating that. I don't know if he needs to be having the biscuits and gravy. I think he's already, you know, whatever. Is it a breakfast spot?
Starting point is 00:47:49 It's breakfast and well, it's breakfast, lunch and dinner, but they have like breakfast food. Cause I picture like maybe waffles or something like that. I feel like I've maybe gotten something like that. Great pancakes there. Yeah. Great waffles. It's pretty, just like a homestyle food though. A lot of like chicken fried stuff and a lot of gravy Yeah, they were really pushing the campfire meals when we were there like these like yeah like corn and potatoes and yeah chicken or whatever
Starting point is 00:48:12 They still have the game where it's like that triangle wood block. Yes. Yeah, it's tough and it says on there You know if you leave one you're a genius. Yeah, two you're pretty smart three You're just playing dumb for probably stink it puzzles, too You're pretty smart. Three, you're just plain dumb. Four, probably stink at puzzles too. Exactly, dude. So it was a blast. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:48:31 There wasn't too much to say about that. But then, yeah, I dropped Hattie off. And I remember- Just going for one week at K Country? One week at K Country. And I remember last year when we dropped him off, you know, like at camp, they always put them up on the platform
Starting point is 00:48:43 and now it's where they're going. And you know, oh, everyone goes crazy for him. You're going to bar number one. Uh, last year I remember, I mean, she shrunk down basically was like trying to hide behind the person, like was just so kind of embarrassed to be up in front of people. Yeah. I don't know if it was embarrassed as much as it was just like, what am I scared or, you know, anxious or whatever this year, she wasn't like jumping up and down, but she was smiling.
Starting point is 00:49:07 She was happy to be there, you know? And it was sweet to see. So, um, yeah, she got, got in her barn. She got all situated, um, drove home and on the way home, Catherine's like, uh, should we stop at Steven Trish's house? Uh, to, to just like stop in and see him. I was like, I think I can get to their house. And so she's like, how far off the beaten path is? I was like, maybe 10 minutes or so. And yeah, we drove to your dad or your parents house and pull in and Catherine's
Starting point is 00:49:38 like, I can't, this house, I love this. She's like, this is beautiful. Oh my, look at these tree. Like she was like, just love, like Jake grew up here. This is amazing Like she's like, she's like, this is beautiful. Oh my, look at these trees. Like she was like, just love like Jake grew up here. This is amazing. I was like, I know it's awesome. And so we pull in your mom. I don't know what are the white car was outside the white SUV. And we're like, I mean, what, I don't know. I'm always a little bit nervous. It's so funny. Like these days, just knocking on somebody's door without telling them. It's always just a little bit awkward. I was like, let's just go front door, see what's up.
Starting point is 00:50:08 Knock on the door, dogs barking. I was like, okay, here they come. Just me, Bo, and Catherine, and they didn't come to the door. So we took a picture and sent it to him. And he's like, we never go anywhere, ever. He's like, the one time we do a date night, we left 15 minutes ago, he said.
Starting point is 00:50:25 I couldn't believe they were gone because you sent those pictures and I couldn't believe they weren't home. That's such a bummer. Also can't believe you got there by memory. To be fair, I didn't. I eventually like kind of had to do some Googling. Don't Google that guys, but I've you can't. It's hard.
Starting point is 00:50:43 But I figured it out and I was like, okay. I was close though. Really? I knew like the name of the street. Yeah. But the name of the street is not always that name of the street. And so I'm not, yeah, like Google is like,
Starting point is 00:50:53 maybe it doesn't really call it that. Yes. Apple Maps may call something else. Yes. Very hillbilly still. So, but I knew the general direction and Catherine couldn't believe that it was right off Route 66.
Starting point is 00:51:03 Yes. Route 66. What? Why is Jake talking about this? Yeah. We used to have like, uh, well, it's funny bringing up when I went to Rachel's hometown this week and they had Beaver Creek days, which is like their summer festival for their town. Yeah. So you guys ever have anything like this? We had Route 66 days. Oh, it was Route 66 running right through Stratford. So I feel like every September I'll get together and
Starting point is 00:51:21 have some root beer floats and do a cake walk and call it good. Yeah. Oh, it was, it was even though we didn't, maybe we'll come back on the way from Branson and see him or something like, it was just fun to go and your dad just, you could tell he had just mowed the lawn. He felt really, really self-conscious that he didn't weed eat. He's like, I mean, one out of every four times I don't weed eat. And of course the one time captain sees it. You know. Well you look great. That's so funny. Anyway, he's like, we never, never leave.
Starting point is 00:51:51 Of course, the one time. So. Oh, that is too bad. Fun little trip though. It was great. Get to go down to Branson, get to see like Sparky. And I'm sure like people want to see. Sparky, Garrett Perkins kids are there right now.
Starting point is 00:52:03 A couple other people that we worked with, their kids are there. Did Hattie get in the cabin she wanted to with a friend? Didn't end up getting in the same one, but we chose that because her friend is a year younger. And so I don't know if she wants to be, she wanted to be in an older barn. So that'd be nice, but still getting good time with them. I've seen pictures and stuff. So yeah, you were like those parents now though, like just scouring the pictures every single day when they come out. Oh, well there she is, you know, in the background.
Starting point is 00:52:28 There she is, she's doing, she's having fun, like whatever. She's holding that girl's hand, that's fine, they're making friends. That is fun. That reminds me, the K-Kawaii photographer, I'm pretty sure is Kauai, anyway, she came up to me last weekend and was like, hey, I'm a ghostie.
Starting point is 00:52:40 Hey, fun. Let's go. Jules was her name. Shout out Jules. Jules, when you listen to this in three months. Yeah. Hope you had a good summer. Hey, fun. Let's go. Jules was her name. Shout out Jules. Jules, when you listen to this in three months. Yeah. Hope you had a good summer. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:52:48 So, yeah, how was Iowa? Yeah, we didn't surprise my parents last weekend, but we did surprise the Coops this weekend, which is really fun. I think it was Rachel like tailing last week. She's like, should we just go to Iowa this weekend? Like, yeah, I'll do it. All right, I'm not gonna tell either of my parents.
Starting point is 00:53:04 So we just went up there. We got in there late, probably like 10.30 at night. But at like 10, Rachel like FaceTimed her mom, just like a normal check-in and just lying. Oh, we're going down to Lewisburg, we're going to see Molly and Gavin, you know, whatever. And 10.28, she's like, all right, we're here, we'll see you guys.
Starting point is 00:53:22 And then we like sneak up to the window and anyway, knock on the door and knocked on the window. And the whole time I was like, are you sure you want to do this? Your parents are 58, not that old, but is your dad gonna have a heart attack when we knock on the window while he's like falling asleep? And anyway, did I have a heart attack? Spooked him a bit, but yeah, totally surprised him.
Starting point is 00:53:43 And their form of weeding was Angie being like, I would have cleaned the house. Oh, I would. Yeah, 100%. It's like, oh, well, if I would have known, I would have made the bed for you, got that all ready. No problem.
Starting point is 00:53:55 Yeah, it was really fun. Just went there and did Iowa things. I love Iowa. Obliskevers? Rachel meant to grab the pan and we forgot because she was going to make some obliskevers back home, but didn't do that. But just, yeah, helped Angie with, well, I don't know if I really helped.
Starting point is 00:54:10 I helped taste test a couple of things for her, you know, some lattes, some Masta evils for a coffee shop. And we played a lot of pickleball and yeah, just had fun. We went out to the pond. Did you go out there wedding weekend? Did you ever see the pond? Yeah. And Catherine was so surprised.
Starting point is 00:54:25 She's like, Jake and Rachel kind of grew up similarly. And I was like, yeah. Yeah. Kind of, yeah. I didn't see the pond though. I don't know where that is. Okay. Oh yeah, you guys just went to their house
Starting point is 00:54:37 the day after the wedding, right? Right. Yeah, well, real close by there, they got their own pond and it's kind of fun because it's hard to get to. You get there and probably like 15 years ago, Steve Coop made his own zip line, which is kind of impressive. Like just to like do the engineering and do the math to like, and buy your own like cable and just put in his own zip line across that's like over the pond. I mean, it's probably
Starting point is 00:55:01 150 yard. Oh, like at least probably it's probably 150 yard. Oh. Like at least probably between 100 and 150 yard zip line. Okay, tell me more. Pretty good length to it. It's pretty sizable. Yeah, it is. It's kind of, it's like big enough for you're like, when's the last time you like stress test?
Starting point is 00:55:15 Yeah. Right. Because you're pretty high up. Quality control. Yeah, how tall is it? So like when you're, when it's like, when there's no weight on it, I mean, it's pretty high up.
Starting point is 00:55:24 Like he built this whole like you know structure where you you got to use a ladder to get up and you start off 15 feet off the ground and Then you got a good amount of ground beneath you and so Yeah, you're 20 feet off the ground or so above the pond and yeah, it's great because there's no way to really stop yourself so what you have to do is two people down at the bottom are like holding a towel or a blanket and kind of like catching you into that. Okay.
Starting point is 00:55:49 Cause I mean, you're just going, I don't know, 25 miles an hour. Yeah, you're zipping. You're zip lining. Yeah. And so it's just a great just farm town zip line. Was this your first time on it? I couldn't remember if I'd done it before, but I'd never seen a water dismount before. I was like, gotta try a little water dismount.
Starting point is 00:56:05 So I just like let go above the pond. And of course, this is not like a zip line. You're not harnessed in at all. You're just straight hanging. So it was just like, don't let go above the grass. Those are so much more fun. I think I much prefer those. When it's like, you aren't gonna let go,
Starting point is 00:56:19 cause you- Like survival instincts. Exactly, so you're fine. Yeah. But you can if you want to, if you're a water or just something. Yeah. Yeah, so you're fine. Yeah. But you can if you want to, if you're a water or just so. Yeah. Yeah, so that was fun.
Starting point is 00:56:29 Did the country boys zipline with the whole family there and yeah, I was just great. That's awesome. Just good vibe up there. Oh yeah. It was hot, hot Friday, 80 degrees, it was nice. Rachel and Steve Saturday night did their own hibachi night. They're like, we're not going out.
Starting point is 00:56:45 We're going to get stuff. We're doing our own little hibachi grill. Okay. Went pretty well. Yeah? Yeah, did a good job. What are they making? I mean, they did chicken, steak,
Starting point is 00:56:53 shrimp, noodles, fried rice, vegetables. They do it on like a grill kind of thing? They have a little black stone. Yeah. That's awesome. So it was fun. Good surprise trip. Trying to think what else. Yeah, Beaver Creek days. Dude, they. So it was fun. Good surprise trip. Trying to think what else.
Starting point is 00:57:06 Yeah, Beaver Creek days. Dude, they had a foam machine there. I was like, if we had this at Canuckuck. A foam? Yeah, kids would still be talking about it. I think foam machines have gone through a lot of advancements in the last 10 years. Okay.
Starting point is 00:57:17 Because this was, it was called the foam daddy. Oh yeah. It was awesome. Anytime you call it daddy, it's just better. Yeah, it's all like fun. These kids are having a blast. I mean, foam just like all over them. It's just like stacking up.
Starting point is 00:57:28 It looks so fun. So is this in Dyke or is this in New Hartford? This was, this is just New Hartford. Okay. Yeah. And it's called Beaver Creek days? Beaver Creek days. It's just Beaver Creek is a creek in town. I guess so.
Starting point is 00:57:41 Like not like a, oh yeah, there's a beaver that comes out every time for me If the beaver sees his Creek in summer Okay, that's awesome, so but yeah, you didn't know that it was that weekend when you can yeah that worked out Jake knock knock Who's there a day that loves coffee a day that loves coffee who oh? I didn't think about how to say it exactly. All right, try again. In's and Y.

I don't care if it's a no good boring a Thursday. Is that too much? No, no, no. I got another one for you. Okay. All right. I love mainstream coffee I drink it every day every day that starts with tea

Jake will say it better than me. Okay. What's, what's, what's red, white and all over red all over nature roasters your newspaper after you spill coffee. That's a good one. That's a good one. All right. How do you make- A man, or wait, sorry.

Starting point is 00:59:20 Oh my gosh. She hasn't had her major roasters yet. That's correct. Right. She wouldn't be talking about this.

What do you and Catherine do if you're like driving and you're like getting sleepy? She sleeps. Yeah, that's that's that's kind of a signature move for that.
Starting point is 01:00:46 Rachel's go to, yeah. She's pretty good at that one. Um, um, honestly, I've noticed at least, I mean, now that I've driven a decent amount, I feel like you just gotta understand that it's just gonna, you're going to come out of it. Like, so you just gotta suck it up for at least for me. Cause like, there's not a right. You act like it's a brain freeze. Kind of though. I know that sounds wild, but like, it's not the same thing as having to pee, but everyone's small.
Starting point is 01:01:11 It's like, I can, I have to pee so, so bad. And then all of a sudden, like 30 minutes later, it's like, actually I'm good. Where'd it go? I don't know. Cause there's times where like, I've been driving for an hour and I am tired. And it's just like, and then all of a sudden I let, I get over it and then seven hours
Starting point is 01:01:28 later I'm good. Does that make sense? Like the sleep thing somewhat, I will say the pee thing. No, I think once you get to a certain point, I'm miserable. Yes. Yes. I was going to say peeing. I think it just is kind of an upward.
Starting point is 01:01:39 I was trying to compare it to something else. Yeah. Yeah. If it's like, I really have to go then it it's, there's a point of no return for sure. It's just like more and more uncomfortable. But every once in a while it's like, Oh, it went away. But I, I mean, I try to sometimes I'll chew gum. I think that like, I've heard like chewing gum helps or seeds, you know, sunflower seeds
Starting point is 01:01:59 or any chewing ice. Seeds. Seeds. But yeah, I don't know if I, I'm not, I don't have like a try. Honestly, if I get, I get on my phone sometimes. And like, yeah, I get a little dopamine hit. Yeah. Something like that. Or just like, just gets me active rather than just sitting
Starting point is 01:02:16 there. Yeah. But yeah, Catherine just sleeps. She's pretty good at that. So, yeah, Rachel's pretty good about sleeping too. But I feel like occasionally there have been times where I wake her up, like, hey, you gotta talk to me or something, like I'm losing it here.
Starting point is 01:02:32 I think the first time we did that is when we got the game that we played on the podcast where it's like, I'm gonna give you songs from your favorite movie. And you can tell about them. This time, we just did trivia with each other on like our own topics. So, Rachel asked chat GPT for social media trivia and I asked Rachel for volleyball trivia.
Starting point is 01:02:50 That's fun. It's all over the place. Sometimes it'd be like, how many players are on each side of the net? And I was like, I said advanced. This isn't advanced. Listen to me. Catherine and I did play a trivia game on the way down.
Starting point is 01:03:02 It kind of happened randomly. My sister was in town with her son going to a Royals game. And I was like, she said, who are they playing? I was like, they're playing the Reds. She's like, ah, the Cincinnati Reds. I was like, very good. And then all of a sudden it just, we went through all three of the major like sports leagues.
Starting point is 01:03:18 And I tried to quiz her on where each team was. Or maybe I would say, yeah, I think I would say the team. And she would, so I want to see if Tymon. I was gonna say, have we done this with Tymon? I think we maybe have. Something kind of similar, I think. Maybe we did the Baltimore Ravens one time. I think we did it with football.
Starting point is 01:03:34 Let's do, let's give him 10 total teams. Levels zero to 100. Let's predict how many he's gonna get. Are we gonna start easy and get harder? Or are we just like, just 10 teams? Just 10 teams. Just 10 teams, Tymon is gonna get two and a half. One he's gonna have like really close.
Starting point is 01:03:51 Okay. We'll give it to him. Let's not do any Kansas City teams. Okay. Okay. And let's say if you get any sport right out of these. Oh, great. Okay. So I'll throw out the sport just in case. This will be varying sports.
Starting point is 01:04:03 Well, no, well yeah, that's a good question. Should we give the city and he gives the team, or should we give the team and he gives the city? Which one would you prefer, Timon? Oh. Because if we give the city, then you could name any. Yeah, then if I happen to know any. But then again, I don't know.
Starting point is 01:04:18 I'm going to do very poorly either way. But I have a better chance at doing city? Yeah, let's give him the name and see if he can give us a city. Okay. Is that what you were trying? I think that's probably- I was saying the opposite thing. But I think you can do a little more context clues if it's the city or the name.
Starting point is 01:04:32 Sure. Yeah, hit me. Yeah, yeah, whatever. Yankees. I'm going to say New York. Wow. Okay. The pause worried me there. So it was about as easy as a kid.
Starting point is 01:04:44 I was like, we're starting them off with the confidence. All right. That was good. That was good. You got New York. Uh, Lakers, Los Angeles. Wow. There's two, which is so funny, right? Right. But they were from Minneapolis originally, which landed 10,000 lakes, a hundred thousand. How many lakes they got up there? 1 million, 1 million lakes. Um,s one through one million. Let's go Cowboys. Dallas? Wow. OK.
Starting point is 01:05:11 He's hit the over. It's time to level up. It's time. This is level 20. Red Sox. Chicago. It's a major city. Good try.
Starting point is 01:05:21 Incorrect. Tough. Is Chicago White Sox? Yes. Very good. Good try. Incorrect. Tough. Is that is, is Chicago white socks? Yes. Very good. Very good. How about nationals? Nationals. Nationals. Okay. Wait, wait, that's like Harrison thing. He's going to think he's going to get some Nashville. Nationals. I was going to guess that. Nationals. The Nash. Yeah, I don't. I don't. Could you pronounce it?
Starting point is 01:05:44 Nationals. Nationals. I can't think of any. Like, I don't even know what you're getting at. Our nation's national. Washington, D.C. That's good. That's good.

Starting point is 01:06:14 Good. That was level 25. How about Rockies? I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I can't think of what state the Rockies are in. If it's like. Tymon. Okay. Sorry. No shame. The main mountain state I can think of is Colorado. Very good. Colorado Rockies.
Starting point is 01:06:33 That's exactly what they are. Great. They're not even a city. They're not even Denver Rockies. Let's go... Dolphins. Tampa. Good guess. Miami. Tampa. Good guess. Good guess. Miami.
Starting point is 01:06:48 Yep. Jazz. Jazz. I don't know. Nashville. Hmm. Utah. No, it's the natural honky tonks.

You guys take your time because it's a bit of a doozy. I'm not entirely sure what made today the day, but here we are.
Starting point is 01:08:46 I've decided to write a five-star podcast review despite having no clue how to actually leave one on Spotify or iTunes. So you're getting a Facebook post. Hello, I'm Izzy. I'm 25 and live in London. Oh, hello. I've been listening to the Ghost Hunters podcast
Starting point is 01:09:00 since episode two. So I've been a ghostie for literal years now. The podcast has seen me through college, lockdowns, a master's degree, and starting my own branding agency. Not to be dramatic, but it's basically been the soundtrack, the background soundtrack to my adult life. That's cool, I like that. It's a bizarre but very 21st century thing
Starting point is 01:09:18 to feel like I've had a front row seat to the lives of two people I've never met. But that's what makes this podcast so brilliant. It somehow manages to feel like a weekly catch up with friends even though I'm 4,000 miles away. Having grown up in the States, there's something so comforting about hearing stories of Chick-fil-A in America and suburbia.
Starting point is 01:09:35 It fills this oddly nostalgic waffle fry shaped hole in my heart in a way that's hard to explain to anyone over here. I've long given up trying to describe the podcast to my British friends. I usually long given up trying to describe the podcast to my British friends. I usually go with it's just these two American guys chatting nonsense, but in the best possible way. Still blank stares, their loss.
Starting point is 01:09:53 But honestly, beyond the laughs, what's more inspiring is the hope that runs through every episode, that you can grow, become better, and keep walking forward with God's guidance, one weird episode, one strange product sponsor, and one sports story at a time. Maybe one day I'll make the trek for a ghosty getaway and finally get to meet you both in
Starting point is 01:10:10 person where I'll absolutely be offering unsolicited English accent coaching. But even if I never do. All right. I hope you keep doing what you're doing. Oh yeah, we will. Oh, you know, just being yourselves. All right. Bringing light and joy, just being yourselves. All right. Bringing light and joy into people's lives because of it.
Starting point is 01:10:28 Okay. Also, I do miss the voice nowadays, especially when people would deliberately cut off their message mid-sentence to create suspense. So in that spirit, I'll end mine like this. Isaac, if you're looking for a British girlfriend. Hello, Governor. You found one right here.
Starting point is 01:10:50 Oh, that's fun. Timon, I just forwarded you an email. It's an old one. Forward it like it's high. But I want you to sing it along with me. Okie dokie. Thank you. Your voice will shine. Refreshing like a madman. Did I do it right? Timon. I'm refreshing so- oh found it. Timon found it. I've been listening to this song recently, like, randomly. See? Well, I knew it. And Philip Fitzgerald will kill the edit. Oh, this will be something special. All right.

I met Jake when him and Trey came to Jacksonville. Guess they haven't gotten to grammar yet. Oh, Jacksonville, yeah. Oh. The home of the, I have no idea. Jag was. Oh, all right.
Starting point is 01:11:53 As I'm writing the review, I'm driving through KC for the first time I'm homeschooled and then CC congrats to Hattie becoming a memory master coming from a former one. Jake and Brad have inspired me to go through light to just go through life laughing. Thank you for making an engaging community. The pod brightened my week. It truly feels like they are your friends.
