Happy Wednesday, Ghosties. Jake, I have a conundrum for you.
Long story short, just rented a garage space at a public storage unit.
OK. After. Yeah.
Getting putting all this stuff for South Dakota in there.
And I'm going to load up a big old U-Haul drive to South Dakota
with my friend, Isis McDonald.
And yeah, we're doing that.
And after I already rented out the storage space, I learned that I don't think a U-Haul
could really fit very easily back there to get all the stuff from the storage space.
Oh, okay.
The last storage space I rented had a pretty good, we'll call it a circumnavigation, I
don't know if that's the right word, but you could circle around like you could turn corners and get around this one
It's like a one-way street in and out I could like I had to like turn my truck
Five different times to like turn it around in this yeah
Yeah, I'm getting a big old
U-Haul, I don't know if I can fit it back there very well, so what are other people do when they load up stuff?
I don't know
invention idea please
What are other people do when they load up stuff? I don't know.
Invention idea.
Please.
The skinny semi.
The skinny semi.
Everyone's made the semi the same width forever.
Yes.
No one's ever done a skinny semi.
Conundrums all.
Yeah.
It's like a square.
What were you thinking?
What were you thinking?
Well, would the skinny semi be double like twice as long or would it just be?
Good question. I. You don't like it. What were you thinking? What were you thinking? Well with the skinny say might be double like twice as long or would it just be good question I
You don't like it, right
No, it's the same length. Okay, everything about a normal semi
Just like the wheels are just closer together 18 wheelers smaller axles. Yes, so less room. Okay more mobile
Okay, iPod Nano
like so maybe two people could still sit in the cab. Yeah. But you're sitting
next to each other on a flight. Okay. Who's got the armrest? Cool. What are you going to do?
I was just going to grin and bear it and just hope that I could fit the U-Haul back there and if I
can then it's just going to be a great story. It just feels like another Isaac Bradavicher to me.
Yeah. Did you know about this?
I was like, we've ever had a U-Haul issue or anything like that.
You know, we're pros.
Put me behind the wheel.
Yeah, we'll be fine.
Yeah, it'll be all good.
What's the worst that can happen with U-Haul, right, Isaac?
Ah, nothing.
Like, there's no way they would call you for like two straight years trying to file
some lawsuit against you.
So something like that. No, it'll be fine. It'll be fine. They would call you for like two straight years trying to file some like lawsuit against you
So I'll have to say I don't know oh, let me take this in a call pause yeah
roll music
Oh, I do I think this type means that it's going down with some random thoughts and white meat to Midwest best friends eating fast We on repeat So come along let's have some fun and go ahead get on your feet
Cause it's the Ghost from the Sparky House
Ghost from the Sparky House
Every Monday morning we're taking a Ghost from the Sparky House
Ghost from the Sparky House
Hey Brad's back
Hey man
I like your shirt and how was your phone call?
It was a good phone call. You know computers weren't working they said so it took a while.
A lot of people are saying computers are down and I think I've talked about this recently but how how how how how?
Or we change the system. Also like how hard is it to like change a system because like man, some stores these days still use computers
from 25 years ago it looks like.
Yeah, I feel like the Shields keyboard is like really,
like one of those like color coded keyboards
where the intersign is like a Tetris piece,
you know those kind of keyboards I'm talking about?
Yeah.
You ever go to like Coles?
Grow up.
Coles, it looks like they got like floppy disks
type computers still.
Mac or like DOS, OX, you know,, whatever like it doesn't even have color on the screen
It's like what's going on over there. It's like you're coding with Steve Jobs
Yeah
As far as other technology goes you call someone
Please listen closely because our menu items have changed. Yeah, what kind of psychopath has these memorized?
Exactly. We think we need to like 100%
give a disclaimer?
And then now before you start cooking,
we've changed them.
Nice try.
Yeah.
You just got to memorize.
Gotcha. We changed them.
Yeah.
Somebody somebody must have gotten so,
so mad at one point because
they do used to be my doctor.
Now it's paraespanol.
Now I can't get back to the menu. They are. They got. yeah, that's probably what it was like now. They're speaking now. They're speaking Mexican to me over here
I
Don't understand what they're saying I
Just want to talk to somebody about my arthritis. Yeah Reagan's America would have never done that honestly
It was like somebody must have gotten so mad. They're like hey just FYI. Let's just let them know
It's better to just really quickly just say the menu has changed. It's like when the coffee cup says caution hot
It's like I know it's ridiculous, but we got sued. We just got to say the coffee's hot FYI hot coffee is hot
Yeah, got it. Okay, you think everyone would know that but seen the real story
Like we probably all heard like can you believe like that woman sued McDonald's wasn't it like crazy hot?
Yeah, if you like read like the story, it's like everyone would be on her side.
Like it was like they tested it.
It was like twice as hot as coffee is ever supposed to be.
And it spilled like in her lap and gave her like third degree burns.
She's in the hospital.
She had like the only thing she sued them for was the exact amount of her medical bills.
She wasn't like trying to screw them over or take advantage. It was just like you made really hot coffee and it like it burned
me through my clothes. I have to go to the hospital. How did they make it so hot? I feel
like global warm. Is it climate change? Okay, nevermind. Okay, let's talk into it. I do
feel like like, I don't I don't do this very often, but every once all when you have tea, tea is crazy hot.
Always coffee never gets that hot.
That's almost how and I don't want to get to go.
I don't want to listen.
That's almost OK.
What I was either the aisle you're on.
Rachel has a tea maker, teapot, tea, warmer, tea kettle.
Fill in the blank.
Is it does it hum? Does it sing to you?
Okay, I know if it was like the laundry machine like
No, not that well that sounds a little racist
That's how the tea kettle sound there
Sounds like a Bollywood song.
I don't even care to even say what I was gonna say.
It's so.
Pum-pum-pum-pum-pum-pum-pum-pum-pum-pum-pum-pum-pum.
Rachel has a tea kettle that sings.
I'm impressed at how quickly it gets hot.
That's it.
And does it get really hot?
I don't know.
It just seems like instantly electricity can get things hot compared to the stove top. That's it. And does it get really hot? I don't know. It just seems like instantly electricity
can get things hot compared to the stove top.
That's it.
Let's move on.
Oh, I see.
It's not a stove top heater.
You plug it in.
Very cool, man.
And then once it gets to 250 degrees,
it goes, bing bong, bing bong, bong, bong.
Bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum.
That's it.
That's all I'm trying to say.
That's it though, dude.
That's it.
Oh my. I don't know how coffee gets that hot. Probably because all I'm trying to say. That's it though, dude. That's it. Oh my.
I don't know how coffee gets that hot.
Probably because they plug theirs in.
Yeah.
And they turn the governor off.
They must've.
What is a pilot light?
This is for anyone in the room?
A pilot light.
It's a-
I know it's important.
They always say to check it.
Hey, oh, it's not working.
Check it pilot.
Well, they had to be able to see the controls.
It's for actual, it's like airline pilots.
Pilot light is, I don't know why it's there, but it's like airline pilots. Pilot light is I don't know
why it's there, but it's like it
needs to be on all the time so that
everything else can get ignited from
it. It feels like the nucleus.
It feels like Isaac knows.
Yeah. Yeah. You know that.
I think it just is on all the time
so that something ignites when you
turn on something to ignite it like
fireplace, for example, electric
yeah. Oh, they've got one little
they have one flame going at all times.
And that's how I discovered pilot.
I thought, why the heck is this?
Freaking I can't get it off.
Flame on. I turned it off.
Why is there still a small flame?
OK, I was dumb and young.
It's like a year.
Dumb and young.
Oh, it's dumb and young.
But then you just, you know, flip the switch on and gas comes out and it lights.
There it is.
Is thing with like a water heater.
They've got a pilot light.
It's ready. It's like ready to go. They've got a pilot light. It's ready.
It's like ready to go.
Is there currently a JV basketball coach somewhere
in the world giving a talk right now and saying,
be the pilot light?
That did set, when you said that was like,
there's a Devo in there somewhere.
Yeah.
I was gonna say, yeah.
What else?
Yeah.
May as tough to brainstorm.
These other guys that are working hard,
they wait to get told when to do their job.
Pilot light?
They're making others better.
They're telling other people.
Always be ready.
Yeah, you don't have to get ready if you stay ready.
Pilot light.
Pilot light.
Also, when did the term pilot,
this is something I'm actually curious about,
you call the first episode of a show the pilot,
it sounds like the first flame of a fire
is called the pilot light.
How did this word become inaugural?
It's anonymous with inaugural
Pontius Pontius started
one word for it.
Pontius ever since punch
ever since the old Monday.
Yeah.
Pontius Grande.
I don't know.
Pilot.
I got this.
Go ahead.
You're ready to take off
something with taking off with
like launching and sure going to like take off. you know, a pilot episode is like this show.
Is it going to take you honestly?
Is the pilot good enough to let this thing take off?
You nailed it. That's a great.
Yeah, that's good enough for me.
Bang. Either that or your punches.
One or the other. Dude, speaking of punch, you guys ever have punch arrows?
Where is that? I've heard of I've seen a picture of it. It's somewhere you want to be is it that's where that's where it is
It's somewhere you know going. No, it's in iowa and probably other places. Oh, is it that place that we went?
At your wedding maybe like the the tripoli but not as good. Yeah, it's like chipotle but better
Remember that place remember that yeah, did you think it was really good? the Chipotle but not as good. Yeah, it's like Chipotle but better.
Remember that?
Did you think it was really good?
No. Some people really real mixed reviews on team punch.
Yeah, a lot of a lot of we talked
about this on the podcast one time
and people were like, Ponchero's is
amazing.
I remember being like, you've been
into any other Mexican restaurant.
It maybe depends what you get for
what I get from my palate.
I'm team punch, team punch, punch,
pilot, punch, pilot, punch, pilot, pilot I get for my palate. I'm team punch team punches pilot punches Pala

Hey, let's do S'mores.
Let's do S'mores.
Let's just, let's just free, let's just rapid fire these bad boys.
Hey, let's not rapid fire.

Okay.

This is the Schmores of...
No, too, too rapid, slow down.
This...
is... This is the schmores of our favorite memories with Isaac slash Isaac's favorite memories with us. So we've told a lot of stories on the podcast. I'm sure there's
gonna be a bunch that the ghost is gonna be like how'd you forget about this one?
I'm excited to see what they remind us of. I know honestly and some of these
are probably ones that I've never even told on the podcast before.
And you wanted to go rapid fire.
Exclusive, yeah.
Well, I had the thought, whatever you said, Falcon Punch, one of my first memories is
Isaac.
Also a favorite, but this is not my choice, is Isaac skipped school one day.
Really?
Which is like classic.
Now that I know you more, I'm like, how did, how did
Kathy McDonald let this happen?
You and Dan Scott came over to the K life house and you, me, I
think it was Jake pretty sure was Jake and Dan all played, uh,
super smash bros for
during the school day.
And I was like, Oh, it's classic Isaac.
And I was like, dude, is it like, like, are you
allowed to be off school? He's like, I didn't have any important classes today.
Wait, how old was I? I bet you were a sophomore or junior in high school.
Shouldn't have been skipping class. Yeah, definitely high school. But you,
you guys did all those like ridiculous classes, team games.
I wouldn't have skipped that one. That's what he means by important classes.
I love that one, I was there for that one.
You're like, oh no, I get skipped today, I don't have PE.
English, I know how to speak English, I'll skip that one.
I'll be fine.
Press one on the menu.
All right, I don't think we need to worry
about what order we're going in for these,
so I'll just start with my favorite,
first favorite memory of Isaac,
and it is actually a somewhat recent one.
It was on the pheasant hunting trip.
We were all outside just randomly playing the stupid game
that we made up with the football.
And throwing the football, trying to catch it and stuff.
We were joking about how like,
Isaac hasn't done anything stupid yet.
Like, we have guns out here and Isaac's, you know,
it's been safe with them this whole time. All of a sudden we're playing football,
like trying to all basically play 500 with this football.
And Isaac comes down and looks down. He's like, dang it.
And Isaac's pinky instead of being where it's supposed to be is about 60 degrees
that way. I mean, just completely like, just dismembered.
And luckily, it's funny because you just popped it right back
at the place that it was pretty much okay, right?
Yeah, I mean, I can still feel it to this day.
Really?
If I mess with it a little bit, but.
It's kind of how my mallet finger is.
Yeah, I put a splint on it for a handful of months.
Well, a splint.
It was a broken and a half, like, coffee stir, like a popsicle stick and some electrical
tape and I wore it for two months and it was the same popsicle stick from South Dakota.
Yep.
And I would sniff it and it smelled disgusting.
But since it's like kind of your own, it kind of doesn't.
But I was like, yeah.
This smells like too bad.
Not bad.
Anyway, just like I mean, it was one of those times where everyone's like laughing slash horrified, like, oh, my gosh.
But it was OK. Oh, my God.
Oh, do, do, do, do.
All right. Jake, you go next.
Mine is going to be when I found out what Isaac's version of carrying Christine out
of the ocean was like, we will sometimes we told that story recently because we found
out one of our friends knew Christine.
And so we were telling them that.
But yeah, Isaac carrying Christine out of the ocean snorkel on flippers on sea urchin
in the foot all time story.
Yeah.
And you thinking he's like a hero and then he's like,
dude, it was awful.
Dude, you got to carry like this young fit girl in the bikini out of the ocean.
How was it? It sucked.
It sucked. It was awful.
All right, Isaac, you got one?
Yeah. I'll start with Brad. We were in Trinidad and Tobago.
No, dude.
That's my next pick. Good.
Take it. Take it. It might be different.
Maybe. Multiple memories.
That's right.
Brad, there's like this gate
to get into this compound that we're
staying at.
And it was locked tonight.
And we were trying to go to KFC late
at night because the food at the
compound is.
And Trinidad, for whatever reason,
KFC is like KFC is like the place in Trinidad for whatever reason, KFC is like, KFC is
like the place you're at. Like it's like the best.
Yeah, so good. And so the gate is locked. We can't get out. And
everyone else is kind of just like, there's like, there's a
gap that you can get through. Like, I know I'm a thin guy. So
I just was able to get through the gap. And Brad starts going.
He's really not trying to be me really squeezing. Yeah, yeah, yes. Awesome pounds. Yeah, yeah. And he's really not trying to be me. He's really squeezing. Yeah. Yeah. He's lost some
pounds. Yeah. Yeah. He's really squeezing. And I mean, having a tough time getting through
and he's just like, I got it. We got it. We got it. And I mean, everyone that was there
was just rolling. That was definitely a core. Did you get through? Oh yeah, baby. Daddy
always gets through. He got it. I got it. We got it. Yeah, there's a there's a video somewhere
We just try to find that like those are to be I got it. We got it
I don't know why I said we got it. I got it. We got it literally that's I wrote that on my notes, dude
I got it. We got it great. All right, you want to go again Ike or do you want to just stick draft?
Sure, uh Jake, I don't know. I think I've told this to you and you don't remember it,
but it was like the first, very first memory I have of Jake. I'm a freshman or sophomore in high
school and me and some buddies are at the K Life house and we're just getting to meet Jake
and he's in the basement making a peanut butter and honey sandwich in the
base you remember this because I remember like it stuck with me because
he's describing how he's making the sandwich I want to say you threw some
sort of cereal on it did you ever used to do that whoa maybe in that era of life
or maybe crunch but you were just being really funny and stupid while making
this peanut butter sandwich.
And me and my buddies had never experienced
a cool youth church guy or ministry leader.
And we were just rolling.
That guy was awesome.
You gotta hang out with him more.
You got the 12 inch inseam gym shorts on,
colors that don't match. But man, I walked out of that basement thinking that guy is really my super random memory, but it's definitely
a core memory.
I'm tripped up on the idea of you making a sandwich in the basement.
You brought the materials down to the basement.
Maybe people were hanging out in the basement.
I don't know what we could have been doing on there, but yeah.
I kind of miss, I used to make peanut butter sandwiches all the time my salary was $19,000
So a lot of sandwiches sandwiches. Yeah, yeah a lot of peanut butter
That's fun
Next I've got 11 things written down a lot to choose from
I'm gonna go with the story that I'm pretty sure we definitely have not told on the podcast boy, and we won't say names
I'll say but I don't know how much you even know the story Brad
But there was a night where Isaac and I are hanging out. It's me and him
in two girls, okay, and
we are not like this is like yes, we're all four of us are single, but I didn't feel
like there was any romantic tension.
For one, one of the girls is like taller than both of us.
I think right away that those are the best girls hang out with.
Because you know, yeah, volleyball girls are great.
But then, you know, like, we're not probably, you know, we're truly just hanging out.
And I thought we had a good thing going.
I forgot about this.
Yeah, you know, it's gone.
And so there was a summer where us were hanging out a good amount.
And anyway, we're at their apartment,
which is not like crazy out of the ordinary to do.
And then we put a movie on and I'm on the couch
with the tall girl and we watched some movie.
It wasn't even that great,
but I was like pretty locked into it.
Like I just was watching the whole movie.
Isaac and the other girl are on like a smaller couch behind me.
And I, you know, for all I knew, we had a great movie night, whatever.
And truly just like a very normal night.
And we're we're roommates at the time.
So we're like, all right, we'll see you guys.
Whatever. We're walking back.
And Isaac is just like, dude,
you have no idea what I spent through the last hour and a half.
It's like, dude, you have no idea what I spent through the last hour and a half. It's like, what happened?
And this girl who is probably like seven years older
than Isaac, unbeknownst to me the whole time
has just been putting the moves on Isaac behind me.
It's silently, credit to her,
but like what were some of the like physical gestures?
credit to her, but like, what were some of the like physical gestures? Um, oh man, just like really scooting over close to me and trying to like kind of put her hand on my thigh or on my arm.
That's what she was really doing was like rapping. And I remember I had a pillow.
Yeah, I remember something with a pillow.
And I was just like holding it like this, like not moving my arm. It was your prized possession, man, all of this pillow. Yeah, I remember something with a pillow and I was just like holding it like this, like not moving my arm. It was your prized possession, man, a little bit of this pillow. To like get a
drink of water and coming back and like trying to sit a little bit further away. Okay. So to be clear,
she approached you, you denied her essentially. Did you ever reciprocate at all?
Essentially, did you ever did you ever reciprocate at all?
Maybe a little.
Sounds like how is she going back for more?
But not like, I don't know. It was kind of uncomfortable because it's like, uh, yeah, I do.
I don't know.
Yeah. Yeah.
Is that definitely uncomfortable?
Out of nowhere.
Bonus is like two weeks later, we're all hanging out in a different spot.
We're in Branson, 4th of July, whatever.
And we're hanging out, similar company.
And it was just not subtle at all.
This girl like really just wanted to be next to Isaac.
Isaac's not feeling it.
So he's like, we're like,
are you gonna watch the movie again?
Isaac's like, I'll take this chair.
Like the chair where you can't sit next to anyone else.
I'll take this chair.
And then somehow we're all like on the same couch and she was just like, I'll take this chair like the chair where you can't sit next to anyone else. I'll take this chair And then somehow we're all like on the same couch and she was just like, oh
Domino effect
Falls over on Isaac
Wasn't that how it went? Yeah, so I
Think initially I was sitting on this bigger couch. Oh people can sit on kind of to like the side of the TV and
I was sitting on this bigger couch, hopeful people could sit on,
kind of to like the side of the TV.
And she sits down next to me,
another person sits down next to me,
and we're watching, you know, like,
couch is here, TV is here.
Okay, little, little.
Couch is on this wall, TV's here.
Okay.
And she says like, yeah, the uh-oh domino effect
and falls down the wrong way.
What a move. And then like, I, the uh-oh domino effect and falls down the wrong way. What a move.
And then like, I think like a minute later,
I'm like, you know, it's kind of tough to see.
Like my neck is kind of starting to hurt
looking at the TV from this angle.
Oh man.
Jake's like, yeah, yeah, yeah, you come on over here.
I got plenty of room over here.
Oh, I think it's a neck problem.
I think it's a neck issue.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Domino effect is great.
So many good memories.
It was something so funny about watching this girl hit on Isaac right in front of me.
I was like, this is the funniest thing I've ever seen.
This is awesome.
And you recognize it then?
Yeah, I saw it then for a second.
You didn't have a pillow to hang on to that night.
It's awesome.
I might have reciprocated a little bit.
That's pretty funny.
Oh, all righty.
Rue.
And you say Rue as in kangaroo.
Kangaroo.
And we're talking pest control.
Yes we are.
That's right.
If you live in the Salt Lake Valley
and sick and tired of seeing kangaroos in your home.
What's this kangaroo doing in here?
This is Utah after all.
If that's you, you need to go to signaturepestpro.com.
Signature Pest Control is the number one pest control
company we've ever had sponsor us.
That's absolutely true.
They do kangaroos, they do dingoes,
they do koalas, and of course pests.
Pests.
They probably say them weird and they say pests.
Cause they're from Salt Lake City.
Pests.
If you're pissed about your pests,
then go to signaturepestcontrol. In Salt Lake City. Pists. If you're pissed about your pists, then go to signature Pist Control.
It's like, see, they don't have pastors.
They have bishops.
Yes.
So line.
That's good.
I just had to set up.
So I mean, you do the you've kind of figured out where to go from there.
Wow.
Tabernacle.
I barely know her knuckle.
Yeah.
That's pretty good.
That's pretty funny.
True story about pest control.
Real quick.
We had these massive flies in our house this past week.
Catherine would not like Catherine's not proud of this.
It's I mean, it's gross.
Flies are gross.
And like these were like borderline horseflies.
Dude, that reminds me, I meant to talk about this on the podcast.
You go and I got flum with flies.
Long story short, we called our local pest control company, not the
national company. We said, bling, bling, bling.
Hello, we have a large fly.
They said, bling, bling, bling.
We'll be out in just a second because we know how much you hate the pits.
And they were and they had it done really quickly.
So that's the value
of local pest control
people.
You know, when there's a small
business, they care and they value
about they value your business.
They value you.
They value your business money.
So your family's business.
Right.
Quick side story for me,
Rachel's parents went to a wedding
in Iowa this week.
It was in a livestock barn.
And they said their table was next to the manure pile. They knew that because the sign said Rachel's parents went to a wedding in Iowa this week. It was in a livestock barn,
and they said their table was next to the manure pile.
They knew that because the sign said manure pile this way.
They were near the manure pile,
but they're not even telling the story
like it's that interesting.
They're like, yeah, we were over by the manure pile.
Then you hear Steve Koop off camera go,
and flies were bad.
Oh, yeah.
And they're like, oh yeah, the flies were really bad.
Yeah, they were all over our food.
I wonder why.
If SignaturePest pest pro comm was there
They would have got rid of those flies correct. And if you live and what you would consider a manure pile

Tavern, Ackle. In the back!
Oh man.
All right, my next one's gonna be the U-Haul vibes.
Yep.
I know there's some bitter memories at the end,
but man.
Nah.
The journey to get there.
Just getting off that airplane,
trying to find a rental car.
It was so expensive, all of them were so expensive.
Just crazy expensive.
Isaac's like, well, I saw this TikTok one time
where these people hacked the system by getting a U-Haul.
Ubered on over there, got a U-Haul,
drove it around all weekend.
What a burger.
What a burger.
Three days later, T-Boned.
Yeah, no problem.
But man, it was awesome.
When it was good, it was good. You know?
That was great.
Also, that Airbnb that we stayed in at that trip
was not so great.
Yeah, who booked that?
The 19-year-old?
It's our fault for letting the 19-year-old find the Airbnb.
But got a good price on it.
I'll say that much.
So had a lot of fun.
And then the other one,
it reminded me of it last episode where you're like, it's Isaac's dad's birthday today.
Last, not last time it was Isaac's dad's birthday, probably seven years ago when it was Isaac's dad's birthday, dad's birthday,
Isaac and I went down to like Southern Kansas and the biggest U-Haul I could rent
and loaded it to the brim with wood.
On my list.
Yes, dude, just an unbelievable day of,
I bought all this wood on like an online auction,
like from this estate sale.
And I think I spent maybe $2,000 for this wood,
and I have made plenty more than $2,000 on this.
I mean, we got so much wood.
I'm still using it to this day.
Like we have, yeah. And eventually Isaac had to leave at like, I think I picked you
up at eight in the morning, got back that night and you had to leave to go to dinner
for your dad's birthday. Like at like seven 30. Yeah. It was like a crazy long day of
just getting all this wood. And then along the way we notice when we're going to this
random spot to pick up all this
wood we noticed that there's this small town in Kansas that has this woodworking shop sign
in it.
And so we stopped there and it's like the coolest woodworking shop I've ever been in.
Like it's like all the all the tools there were made in like the 1800s or something like
that.
And they were all on like these old pulley systems.
It was unbelievable. And like we almost
were just like, I don't know, let's just go take a break and go check out this woodworking shop
real quick. And this guy, I think he only had eight fingers. Yeah, honestly, I think at most.
Yeah. Uh, but this guy was showing us how it all worked and it was so much fun. So what a day.
how it all worked and it was so much fun. So what a day.
All right, my next one,
I'm gonna go with the time where we went indoor skydiving.
Oh, I forgot about that.
Kind of random.
I don't know if it's actually in the top four,
but just a funny memory that recently crossed my mind
because I think Steve Koop was like,
next time I come to Kansas City, I wanna do that.
I was like, Steve, you do what you want.
I mean, obviously feel free to do it. But was like Steve you do what you want you I mean, you obviously feel free to do it
But Isaac and I like they asked me to if I would be willing to come and post it on my story
Like you bring a friend
We did it for free and it still wasn't worth our money. Yeah
It was still a waste of time
But it was funny that we were at least in it together. I mean just like you're in this like NASCAR suit
It's so hot and this weird fitting helmet.
And then, I mean, it's the equivalent of like,
why don't we just fire up your leaf blower
and you just blow that in my face for five minutes?
It doesn't really feel like I'm skydiving.
It feels like I'm having trouble breathing.
And the whole time a guy's hanging on to you,
you don't even let you do any cool moves or,
he's doing this.
How do you start it?
Good question.
Do you just jump and then it just blows you up?
Cause like the fun part about skydiving
is that you're falling.
Yeah.
And so that's the crazy feeling, right?
Like, I would assume.
I think the fans are going already
and then you like walk in and kind of like,
or like fall in through the door flat.
Yeah, I think it lifts you up.
But again, like there's an instructor, whatever, holds that the whole time.
And it's just like and you're just like sustained in the air.
It doesn't feel like you're falling at all.
I was going to say that half second is the only fun time when you fall flat.
Yeah, that's the only fun.
Yeah, the only like, yeah, somewhat cool part.
I remember was like very subtle movements in your arms.
Like doing this made you go one direction doing this.
But even that was like, all right, I'm ready to like do a flip now.
Or like what everything you just did. Let me do that.
Didn't let you. It was fun, though.
We had a good time. That was that was something.
All right. Business casual basketball.
On my list casual.
So back when Jake was.
Making sandwiches.
Yeah, making sandwiches at the K Life house.
There were like K Life three on three tournaments throughout the country and we played in them
and we decided to call ourselves business casual and we wore khakis and polos and just
dominated.
And we were saying back of it. I mean. And we would travel to these things.
We went to like Columbia, Missouri one time.
Came in first. Springfield.
Where was that one that was like, I think it was one of those gyms that had like the sport court type surface.
It really felt like it was in the middle of nowhere.
Yeah. Where was that? You know what I'm talking about?
Bartlesville or something. Who knows where he went? Joseph Lemos.
Yeah. Joe Lemos.
You're a great team.
Yeah. Very busy schedule.
Got to meet Dude Perfect.
Yeah. Yeah.
At the tournament with Tyler Tony.
That was like the prize winning.
Yeah. Winner gets a picture with him.
Well, ask him if he remembers.
I think we might be shooting with
Dude Perfect like late August.
Maybe it's happening.
So we'll see if we should recreate shooting with Dude Perfect like late August maybe. It's happening.
So we'll see if we should recreate it.
Get your limos down there.
Same outfits.
I didn't realize you guys did multiple
business casual tournaments.
I thought, I knew you did one.
Yeah, I mean did probably at least three.
That's great.
Yeah.
It's fun.
Always business casual.
Yeah.
Always cargo shorts or khakis or pullover or something.
That's amazing. That was a good time. That's definitely a core memory. Yeah, it was cargo shorts or khakis or pull over something. That's amazing. That
was a good time. That's definitely a core memory. Yeah. All right. For Brad, again,
we are in Trinidad and Tobago. Don't take it again. No way. Which one? Go ahead. You're
shirtless. I'll start there ringing a bell. No. We're about to, you know, get some beach
time. I think we're in Tobago. So this is like resort time.
We're not doing any more mission work.
Tobago, we're going to the beach, having a day to just have some fun.
I know what you're going to say.
Big Daddy needs to get some sunscreen on him.
So he of course asked me, spray bottle?
No.
This is the lotion.
And I take the lotion and I'm just dousing it in my hands.
You ready?
And I am, I mean, touching every inch of his
above his waist and just lathering him in so much sunscreen.
So much. And we're getting all like, yeah, with it.
And that was like borderline.
Like I should have gotten fired for that.
Yeah. But, you know, Ryan Cappell probably loved it. Yeah. And that was like borderline like I should have gotten fired for that Yeah
Ryan Cappell probably love yeah
Nice over there
Instagram yeah, exactly
Yeah, I mean it was so much sunscreen that was really
Wow, I'm just thinking about touching your body. Yeah, go ahead. Yeah, I keep thinking about um
That's so funny. I honestly forgot about that until
just now. Yeah.
That's funny. Yeah.
It was true.
Great time.
I I'm going to go with
I could do the whole trip. I'm going to go specifically eating
in China just like that.
So that will always be seared into my brain like
when I first had that seek cucumber soup.
That was like how is it?
Don't don't do it. Or does all the other things that you tried and you're telling me like this isn't bad.
And then he's like, it's the inside of an eel.
I guess actually not that good to me anymore.
Never I changed my mind.
The pigeon and the negotiations around the table.
I have a hard time even imagining how bad some of those things taste like, like,
could you describe what they taste like?
I I don't know, just like a lack of flavor and just like in the flavor you do
taste is not good, like dirty water or like.
Yeah, maybe you might be good or like, I mean, not sewage.
I don't think anything's like poopy, but it's just like.
I don't know, like if you have someone else burped
in your mouth.
Oh, that's gross.
Like my own burps.
That's fine.
Okay.
I don't want yours.
That's fair.
Okay.
Good enough.
And so that's more like the fishy stuff.
I think the meat was just like, there's nothing to this.
There's nothing about this tastes good at all.
It's just so bland, just like tangy,
chewy, jerky, nothing,
but just no flavor.
Yeah.
Huh?
Yeah. I mean, I don't have really desire
truly, but also I'm just curious of like,
I kind of want to try it.
Just if they have like some sort of sweet
and sour sauce, you'll be fine.
You'll be fine.
Which is America as well. I know that was nice of them to have that. You'll be fine. You'll be fine. Which is America as well
I know that was nice of them to have that
Alright my last one. I also thought of a trend ad memory. Do you remember Josh in Trinidad?
Oh, I'm a gosh son bait you. Yeah. Yeah, Josh hilarious
Older guy like a few years older than me
But there was one time specifically, I just love it when Isaac laughs hard.
And there was one time specifically where we were all just laughing so hard at
Josh for like two hours. I think we were on our way to the beach or something.
We were in the bus and he just kept making these jokes, like asking,
like not knock knock jokes, but kind of.
But you could tell they were a hundred percent made up on the fly and they made no sense at all.
Do you remember this?
I remember this.
Where he's like, and he's got like a little bit of an accent or definitely got an accent.
He's got a little bit of a stutter.
Like he's just, he's just funny anyway, like by himself.
He's just like, cause he's kind of serious, but also kind of hilarious and whatever.
But he's just like, well, what, what, what, what do you call?
What do you call a What do you call?
Shark with no fins and we're like what a shark fin
Hundred times he did that a hundred times over and over and over a hundred different jokes that were similar to that that made no sense
But man we laughed every time genuinely like it was like yeah, he's like I'm crushing This is amazing the guys last week didn't laugh at this at all. Am I delivering it different honestly though
It was it was just like unbelievable
Kinda reminds me you guys know that chiefs fan the what happened. Oh, yeah, he was at the charity pickleball tournament last night
I missed him. Yeah, we got him a Friday paddle
He was I should take a video. He was using a Friday paddle
He also kind of helped the chiefs players announce our championship game. We're not chiefs fan
Yeah, every now and he would and he's local. Yeah, he would like we would score a point
They'd give him the mic and he would say like what happened
Yeah, it was great he was awesome you would have loved him I got to meet him last night
any honorable mentions
Yeah, there was a time in Isaac's life another one of those sites where it's like this is not funny
But Isaac thought it was so funny that I thought it was good. He kept doing Joe mama jokes
Like hey you guys know if Joe's coming
And no one like everyone knows knew the joke we're like dude stop no he's not I remember that face. Like, hey, you guys know if Joe's coming?
And no one, like everyone knew the joke. We're like, dude, stop.
No, he's not coming.
And he'd be like, Joe, mama!
And he thought it was hilarious.
And so I think of it fondly.
Just all the times with Hattie, I feel like Isaac and Hattie were like inseparable for a while.
I don't, there's like a specific time, but like I just looked at my camera roll and saw
a bunch of them.
And then one time I think you were pooping on my house and you got up violently from
this toilet, I guess.
And we had like a storage shelf right on the opposite wall.
And Isaac just stands up and just cracks his head open on the top of this thing
and just walks out like it's kind of nothing.
He's like, hey man, I think I need to go
to the hospital real quick.
I busted my head open on your shelf.
And I was like, oh my gosh, he's got so much blood.
This guy's been to the hospital a lot.
I think you had to get staples, didn't you?
Yeah, I got staples.
Geez, from standing up.
I think I walked. Exactly.
Like how hard do you have to stand up to do that? Okay, I mean, I didn't really, I mean, I didn't think I was standing up. I think I walked. Exactly. Like how hard do you have to stand up to do that?
Boom.
Okay.
I mean, I didn't really, I mean, I didn't think I was standing up that hard, but I remember
walking out like, I think I'm bleeding.
And I had Catherine like shine a flashlight.
Remember?
She was like, Oh yeah, you should probably go to the hospital.
Yeah, dude.
Yeah.
Wild times.
So those are my three.
My honorable mentions are our first Pickleball tournament, 35 tournament in Branson, playing on like garage floor.
Oh, with the survivor guy?
Yeah, congrats.
Go meet Tyson.
You're gonna have to point him out to us.
Not real sure which one is Tyson here.
I like how you have these tournaments
where like the prize is just meeting somebody.
Just people, yeah.
You're right.
Yeah, a medal and a meet.
When you skip school to film me and Juggling Josh.
Oh my gosh.
Isaac skipped school.
That's crazy.
That was a funny day.
Yeah, I had the three on three basketball tournament.
Just recently, getting to ride horses together in San Diego,
that was pretty hilarious and really fun.
Oh dude, when you rode the camel with Harry in Phoenix.
Yeah. That was dude, when you rode the camel with Harry in Phoenix. Oh, yeah, yeah, that was that was amazing. Yeah. I love telling
people this story. Your first day on tour with us on the bus.
You're not used to the blackout curtains. You texted me from
your iPhone and said, What time is it? She like something's
wrong. Like my phone is telling me it's noon. Obviously, that's
not right. What time is it? Yeah
It's got the wrong time zone. It's so funny to like think that you know better than the phone does
Another pick up driving all the way to Springfield and forgetting our paddles and our shoes having to go to Academy Sports the morning
Of the tournament it's crazy that we both forgot. That's great
Oh It's crazy that we both forgot. That's great Oh
And then this one is more for you to an armature for you guys when that one customer thought that Brad was your dad
Oh, dude, that's right. I should have written that one down. That was fun. Why don't you go over there and help your dad up?
Okay, and
It was so funny because I think
That that slab that we bought
Was so heavy one of the heaviest pieces of what I've ever bought.
800 pounds, or so heavy.
And so trying to lift it while also laughing
about the dad thing.
And then also as he's showing me these slabs,
some mice just crawl out of one of the other slabs,
he's like, ah, God, get that mice out of there.
I don't remember that part.
And so we're just dying laughing. Go up, go up your dad out real quick.
He's like struggling to get it.
Hover down over there.
You're pappy at your.
Oh man. I'm sure there's a million more great memories, but anyway,
just fun to think about Isaac.
Do you have any honorable mentions? Any of that didn't make the list Isaac?
I didn't write any down, but
I think first time, Jake, that we went to Phoenix to play in a
pickleball tournament and we
decided day of to go get
denim to wear George
George and cut off denim jackets.
Yeah, that's definitely up there.
That was fun.
Fist bump, Tana Johns.
Oh, yeah.
Sitting down crisscross,
sitting crisscross applesauce sitting down
and this like pickleball reporter, you know,
in a dress makeup comes up and Jake's eating
out of his Chipotle right here.
Oh, hey, yeah, yeah.
Oh, that was funny.
In our, actually, I don't know if we were in Denim
at that point.
I don't think we were.
Wish we were.
It would have been great.
Hey Ryan, that was a fast trip.
It was like you teleported. Yeah, just got in. I'll get all my expenses logged, I were. Hey Ryan, that was a fast trip. It was like you teleported.
Yeah, just got in. I'll get all my expenses logged, I promise.

It was funny, another part of the story,
we fly all the way to Phoenix
and the first round we play Luke Hoagland and Scott Peck.
Yeah.
And beat them.
I whooped their behind.
It was the last time we beat Scott.
Yeah.
Lots of memories.
Just one, like, big core memory is working in your shop at the.
What house was that?
The mustard seed. Yeah.
Yeah. Just spending time in the shop with Brad.
Yeah, I did. Shirts off.
Remember the first time Brad took his shirt off while working in the shop?
I was like, you take your shirt off.
You're working in the shop. Don't you get like Dustin?
You can do that. Do whatever you want, baby. Yeah.
Brad every now and then.
I mean, the guy has like maybe the best use of free will out of anyone that I know.
Does that make sense?
Like like diving into the cold place. Really dumb here.
Like I could just get up right now and stand on this table.
I have the free will to do that.
That's like Brad.
He does things like diving into the cold plunge.
Exactly.
Great use of free will.
It's like, this isn't breaking the law.
Brad is the type of guy that might walk into Home Depot
with a glass of cold milk.
Who does that?
Like a glass out of his own house, out of his own cabinet.
That's not a real story. It's not, but you might. If I wanted a glass of of his own house, his own cabinet. That's not a real story.
It's not.
But you might.
But like, if I wanted a glass of cold milk, sure.
That's what I'm saying.
Fry just takes advantage of his free will.
He'll do things that are just weird.
I love it.
Thanks, dude.
Dude, this just reminded me, this is not milk at all.
I don't know why I thought of this,
but I remember when Chick-fil-A La Nexa first opened,
you might've been there, you might not have been,
but we were in there like,
Harrison is working there, Drew Severance just opened it,
and I think Harrison had just got done hooking you up
with like a large Dr. Pepper or something,
and then you spilled it all over the floor,
and Harrison's like mopping it up,
and he's like, you're like, I'm sorry,
he's like, no, I'm sorry, you know, whatever,
and then he's like, I can get you another one if you want.
And you're like, yeah, I pray to you.
While he's mopping your Dr. Pepper off the floor.
I have no recollection of this.
Of course I said yes to another one.
I mean, because you're like, I mean, I don't have what I want.
Yeah, which is a clean Dr. Pepper in my hand.
Of course.
No, I don't remember that. I should have helped helped you Harry. I'm sorry. That's so funny. I would yeah to this day
I mean, well if you're offering well, it's no trouble. I guess yeah, why not?
Like the stores not even open yet, but there's a Dr. Pepper stain on the ground this guy
One of Harrison's friends. I'm sure he got it up.
I don't remember that.
It sounds like it happened, though.
I'm getting the vibe that it really happened.
This might be real.
Oh, Jake was going to make a joke.
This is a foreshadow of a joke at the very end of the episode.
So I guarantee you they're not going to know it yet.
Are you going to get to it, though?
Jake, you went to bed at 4 thirty a.m. a.m.
Therefore, you probably woke up around eight thirty a.m.
really, really tired.
At eight thirty five a.m., if you would drink
Main Street Roasters coffee, I guarantee you, you would have felt
like you went to bed at 1130 p.m
The timelines tough to follow, but I'm so glad you mentioned that part about mainstream roasters. Yeah, that's the main part is mainstream roast
It was the main part. I didn't know okay. Yeah, major roasters will wake you up
Yes, major roasters will hype you up. Yes major rosters will lift you up and most of all
It'll buzz you a little buzz. Yep. It buzzes you up your episode of seinfeld
Who is it delane? All right, come on up. That's major rosters. That'll buzz you up. Yeah, i'll buzz you up
Yep, new york city apartments

It's on us.
So dumb.
So good.
All right, macegrossof.com.
Isaac, what are you doing for your dad's birthday tonight?
That's a good question.
I think we might go try to play some pickleball.
Come on.
Speaking of my dad and pickleball, that guy a good question. I think we might go try to play some pickleball. Come on. Speaking of my dad and pickleball,
that guy takes things too seriously.
Yeah.
Smile, laugh.
Got some rage issues.
Have fun.
Yeah, I think my mom tried to paddle tap him one time.
He's like, I'm not tapping your paddle.
I'm not tapping your paddle.
I won't tap your paddle.
He hit like a good shot too.
She's like, oh, good shot.
That's nice.
She's trying to like do what the real players do.
Stop.
Because he's like, in tennis, we don't do that.
He's a competitor. Yeah.
And I think I can actually understand.
I think he can get frustrated playing pickleball because he has had a lot of injuries.
And I think he's got something wrong with his shoulder.
And he just can't do what he used to be able to do when he's healthy.
And so when he tries to move and his body doesn't allow it, I think it's frustrating.
Understandable. Yeah, I'm not there yet, but I feel like I'm like 80 percent there
tour. I can't recognize that I can't
do it yet. Does that make sense?
Yeah, you're almost like a cloud of
judgment. Yeah.
Oh, something's weird.
Is it windy?
It's like we keep losing in
basketball to these guys that aren't
very good. How is this happening?
It's like, oh, maybe we're not very
good at basketball.
All right. Who's been on the team
every time?
Wait, I think it's me and Brad crap
Okay, well that's a crazy coincidence I guess I guess you guys need it it's always been humid though That's another humid the humidity is probably
part of it
yeah, like I'm not it's not obvious that I'm like losing a step, but I
Also, just look at the tape, you know, the tape.
That's right. Yeah. I don't know.
You got to dominate it at lifetime. We did play on two guy.
Rad was I am not in two on two is the hardest type of basketball.
I think. Yeah, it is.
So you you you can't be bad in two on two.
We had a dream.
You mean when you said it's the hardest type of thing, you saying like you have no room for air to be bad and
got you on to.
Sorry. Yes.
You have no room for air.
We just had the dream match up that day.
Oh, yeah. Two big old dudes like we're sorry, one big
dude, one smaller skinny dude
come say, hey, want to play to one to like, OK, we obviously
know who we're guarding. Yes, is great setup.
I don't I think a big man all day.
I don't care if you're a lineman in football.
I've played against like D1, like centers in basketball.
I like playing against those guys.
Yeah, you bang around.
Yeah, you throw them around.
They don't get mad at you, dude.
It's so fun to play against like big guys
cause I will shove them and they won't be like,
dude, what are you doing?
They'll just be like, they won't even say anything.
They won't even be like, I guess you're playing hard.
Yeah, he's playing hard defense. Yeah, they literally like they won't even say anything. They won't even be like I guess I guess you're playing hard It's like playing hard defense
Yeah
They literally don't say a word to me and I'm like kind of trying to get them to say something to me
Oh, and then you got you play against these small guys are like, what's your problem, bro?
Sorry, so anyway, but we did we did play well that day. Yeah, that's fun. Let's get let's get it back this weekend
There's like a there's a pretty big pitiful tournament happening in Kansas City, like a nationwide,
I guess, type tournament.
But it's only for people 23 and under something like that.
OK. And Isaac had the idea.
Well, two ideas.
One is like we could actually let's go like legitimately like scout around.
Crew two.
He was like, we should like do a video like let's just head to toe dress
like Scouts. I have a radar gun.
Let's get clipboard. Let's get a whistle.
I think I do that tomorrow what uh
You have someone like film us from a distance like zooming in like on their iPhone
And we're just like you know like gunning down like 14 year olds and like taking fake notes and everything
Yeah, like almost like you like both have a gun you like look at each other
We're like comparing it make eye contact and be like just nod
Write something down pull out phone, start dialing.
Yeah.
I got one.
Yeah.
Yeah.
14.
He's here.
Have you ever been to a,
I guess you worked at that minor league,
for that minor league team,
but I remember Royals games every once in a while,
you'd see a scout for some other team.
In real life.
Holy, this is so cool.
That's like a scout.
Or even you go to a big basketball tournament and you this is so cool. It's like a scout or like even like you go to a big basketball tournament
and you see all these guys, it's like, oh, man, like that guy's a scout for Duke.
Dude, this guy's going to Duke.
The word scout, I wonder if it's been watered down since when we were in high
school because the idea of like a scout.
Yes, I couldn't really Google what their job was.
I would just hear this term is like, I think that's the only way you succeed in life.
Is a scout finds you.
Yes.
Well, it felt like there were five scouts
for like the whole universe.
East, north, NBA, and south.
And south, yeah.
And so that's four.
That's five, I mean.
Yeah, just didn't feel like there were very many of them.
So if there's like, there's a scout here.
Yeah.
Whoa.
It was awesome.
Did you guys ever, this might've just been me
thinking about scouts though.
You're ever shooting around in your front yard
and you had a good shot and you're like, hold up.
Is like a coach from like KU gonna drive by?
Like what if he did right now?
What do I want him to see?
Like you see a car driving by
and then you try to do something cool.
Just in case.
Just in case you ever do that.
Yes dude. Yeah. Yeah. yeah just I don't know whatever
Ten it out windows. I don't know who's in there you coach K. Maybe yeah, that's right
Every football season Rachel I'm not every the last two Rachel's convinced that any like black like SUV with ten out windows
She's like could be Taylor Swift. Yeah, I think I drove. I think I passed to their switch
We talked about this couple weeks ago. That's my bad Michael. Remember? Hey, that's my bad. That's my bad. That was recently
Yes, that's on me. That's on you. I do a lot of podcasting. How did you do?
Camera which pod I do love it though. Gosh man
This guy when I do that, no, I know you guys don't care but
Hey, I don't care. All right
It's for Isaac.
I didn't know we were still recording.
Yeah, we're fine.
Did you hear that, Isaac?
That's funny story.
I have an awkward story that made me uncomfortable kind of like Jake was uncomfortable just then.
Good segue.
I was trying to figure out.
This podcast is for just like random stuff.
You're like, no, no, no.
This isn't random.
No, this is connected.
This is connected. This is this.
It's it's not even that good of a
story, but it's just a classic like I
see my friend Kyle coming around the
corner kind of far away and
I wave to him.
I do I do one of these.
I kind of like he's coming around the
corner. So I kind of do like a
sideways wave like coming out in
Nashville.
Still me.
Go, Ash, Asheville.
And classic just old man at church in front of Kyle thinks I'm waving to him.
Well, hey, Brad.
And just, and he comes up to me, he like, he like then starts pursuing me.
He goes, you're going to have to remind me.
I forget sometimes.
I'm sorry.
And I'm like, I just went with it.
We had a three minute conversation.
I was like, you didn't tell him like I'm waving to you. No problem. Yeah, Brad Ellis. Yeah good. Yeah
I know I volunteer. Okay. Yeah Brad, of course Brad. I remember you Brad, of course. How are you doing?
And you're married to
Catherine like I'm married to this girl who's talking to Kyle right now laughing at this situation
He's like, I'm sorry ever since I moved out to the country, I just, I, we have, we're not always
coming to churches on it.
I have a hard time remembering everybody.
Everything moves a little slower.
I was like, just try to figure out how I can get out of this conversation as
fast as possible for both of us.
I'm just like, no problem, no problem.
He's like, so how are you guys doing?
And I was like, um, we're doing well.
Doing good.
Doing well.
Yeah.
Thank you.
It's good to see you.
It's good to see you. It's good to see you.
Oh, it's good to see you too.
I mean, it was just so funny.
You're going to have to remind.
You're going to have to remind me.
Yeah.
I and I didn't.
Is that the right thing to do more than just like,
oh, sorry, I was actually waving at the guy behind you.
What's worse?
I think you did the right thing.
You're in church within the setting.
You probably did the right thing.
And I gotta say credit to that guy.
You get a certain age and you don't have this like
social anxiety of like, oh, I don't know this guy.
I gotta pretend I know him.
You get old enough or just comfortable enough,
you're like, I don't know who you are.
I don't do that now.
I just pretend until the interaction's over. That's what I did, and then you get older and you're just like no one cares
You're gonna have to remind me but he kind of pretended that he didn't know or they knew who I was after that's right Brad
How are you doing? That's true. Oh
That's right. Anyway, it was just I was like I just want to say hi to Kyle real quick. I'm sorry
Anyway, it was just I was like I just want to say hi to Kyle real quick. I'm sorry
Do speaking of Kyle's Kyle Kazoo, the guy loves you. I love him. Yeah, he he keeps talking about you when you're not around Yeah, that Brad guy is funny
Man, Brad is funny

Thanks, Kyle.
Yeah, we had fun together.
We were laughing a lot.
I mean, anytime that you and Scott are around,

like, it's like, I know these guys,
they know my brand, I can let loose a little bit here, so. I know these guys they know my brand I can I can you know
Let loose a little bit here. So I can drown this guy in the hot tub. We're all having a good time
What did I make a joke about he liked the the camera joke I made f-stop
No, there was some guy at lifetime. That was like whose tripods are those? Oh, I just got a

So, anyway. Great impression. Yeah. Should we do our wins of the week?
Yeah, let's do them.
Were you about to say goodbye?
Toys.
I gotta get out of here.
Alright.
Go celebrate Scotty.
Hey, good to be back though.
Love you, Ike.
Thanks for coming, man.
Thanks for coming.
Thanks for popping in.
You guys are probably gonna be surprised, but I probably sucked at this.
No, you didn't.
Changing the cameras.
Oh.
Yeah.
You would think no one could be bad at that.
I think I was pretty bad. No, we've learned the no bad at it. There was one there was one that was
Pretty bad. Yeah, there's not to be another and it wasn't Hattie. Yeah, I did pretty good job. I did just fine
No, you're fine. Thanks for hopping on. Yeah
Love you, man. Love you guys. All right
My wind of the week I kind of mentioned her already
But I'm gonna say it one more time
because people might not have listened right away. The band is called Norman. And he gets you dancing.
And my goodness is it a groove. That is my main win of the week is just this.
And I discovered them, or the first time I listened to them was on a date night with Katherine, which is my other win of the week.
Katherine and I went out on a little yeah just a little little dinner date.
My parents watched our kids and so
for the night and it was a great time
and we did a little contrast therapy
lifetime. She came to others.
They just said like your dinner date
like we had like brownie and ice
cream.
We had no yeah dinner date.
We did like yeah we went it was like
4 p.m. We just sat outside the patio
and just like had hot chocolate
you know right right away.
And then we got a freezer of the ice cream store.
You guys actually went to lifetime and cold plunge together.
Yeah, we went there just like hung out by the pool for like an hour, read some books.
And then she's like, I'll try the cold plunge.
I'll do it.
Has she ever cold plunge before?
I don't think so.
No.
What do you think?
She did not love it. I can't stand it. I don't think so. No. What'd she think? She did not love it.
I can't stand it.
I don't think she got, I think the closest she got,
she almost got to her shoulders at the very end.
But for the most part, she just was doing her knees,
maybe her waist.
Nothing wrong with going calves only.
That's right.
Nothing wrong with it, no shame here.
No shame in the calf only game.
It really hurt her feet though, she said. No shame the calf only gave.
It really hurt her feet though, she said.
That was the thing that she said, I can't believe how much that hurt my feet.
But I'm like, you felt better at the end of it, right?
You do.
Anyway, but it was fun.
It was fun to do it with her.
I don't know.
She's not a member at Lifetime, so she's just my guest.
So in 60 days, maybe we'll do it again.
Well, that's nice.
That is a good one. Honestly, it was like in four years when our kids are older,
this is gonna be awesome for us to go to the pool
or whatever it is, you know, so.
Anytime you get to like,
no matter how long you've been married,
probably how many other types of like interactions
you've had when it's like,
I get to bring her into like the thing I do,
which is more fun.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I do this all the time,
but it's way more fun now that you're here.
Like, hey, just FYI, the towels, there's gonna be towels right out here. So you don't need, yeah. It's slippery in fun. Yeah, I do this all time. It is way more fun now that you're here. Like, hey, just FYI, the towels, there's
going to be towels right out here.
So you don't need it.
It's slippery in this part, not this
part. Something I've noticed.
I've never expressed it before, but
something I've just noticed the last
two years. You know, like it's just so
fun to have something else around.
Totally.
My one of the week is.
Boy, I felt like I was put on a lot of
deodorant and I was like,
I'm not even that sweaty.
I got to the bottom of this. I start googling it and I learned the term deodorant. And I was like, I'm not even that sweaty. I got to the bottom of this. I started googling it and I learned
the term deodorant fatigue. And I was like, what's this hullabaloo?
I really was kind of questioning this.
Deodorant fatigue. Okay. This is new to me.
Yeah. And it was just like, yeah, your body can get used to like
whatever your deodorant and even like the fragrance and the scent
and everything of what you're putting in your armpits, where
it just straight up doesn't work. And I was like, that's essentially what I'm doing.
I mean, I've used the same kind for years and years
at five, six years.
And so one day kind of detoxed a little bit.
I went like, I'm gonna no deodorant for a while.
Let it all get out.
And then just got like your base package,
run of the mill, just like old spice.
And I'm a new man.
Really?
I'm a big believer.
Deodorant fatigue is a real thing. If you're like st spice. OK. And I'm a new man. Really? I'm a big believer. Deodorant fatigue is a real thing.
If you're like stinking and sweating.
Now, don't get anti-perspirant.
That was I always tell Rachel, like before you
were getting crunchy, I made a crunchy decision
like 10 years ago.
I was like doing my own research on like,
I think anti-perspirant can't be good for you.
OK.
Turns out, yeah, it's not.
Yeah.
You're like putting aluminum in your body
to stop yourself from sweating right healthy to sweat anyway
Yes, I smell amazing now. I went from putting deodorant on like three times a day to like once a day
Sleeping waking up the morning sniffing it doesn't smell good anymore
But it's like neutral like I don't smell bad from like that's a win and they did you order on the outside
It's like 24-hour protection and that's never been true
What who are these people? Where do they interesting? Okay, but
I'm just PSA. I've a changed man. I love how I smell and do you think
Do you think there's like you've heard people probably talk about like not wearing deodorant at all
Yeah, like is there value to that? I don't know because I think I don't know
I I definitely like can my armpits can definitely smell after a
while. But also, yeah, like three times a day. That's that's a lot. Yeah, I was like, I that's
it became a problem. I like questions like that. Like, should we be wearing diurent? Because I
always think back to like, all right, how are we like created? Like, do you think but it's like
people were bathing even back in the day. Right. So I think we were meant to like
People were bathing even back in the day.
Right. So I think we were meant to like.
Have some hygiene, but what about deodorant specifically?
Yes, deodorant cleaning, though, it's or just masking the odor.
Yeah, it's just like Febreze. Right. I don't know.
I don't know. But but I'm a changed man.
That's all I got to let everybody know.
Do I love that? It's like one of those like that's that's kind of what I'm like
with like this, not the way to invest necessarily. But it's like this of those like that's that's kind of what I'm like with like this
Not the weighted vest necessarily, but it's like this is my new personality thing is like I'm just gonna talk about the weighted vest and Norman
That's all I'm gonna talk about now like for a while. Yeah, this is my new thing
I'm just like what do you do for your deodorant? Like let me tell you about yeah
That's kind of how I was when I first found like oh
Your thyroid is so important and anyone else who's cold out there,
get your thyroid checked.
Why didn't no one tell me?
No one ever told me for 33.
You've heard me talk about the podcast so many times.
You know, it's like the thyroid controls so much.
Everyone get it checked.
Maybe that's why you're gaining weight.
Maybe that's why you're cold.
Maybe that's why you're not that hungry.
Come on, guys.
It's all thyroid.
It's like when somebody gets injured in sports,
it's like I've torn my ACL, so every time it's like,
I bet that's an ACL tear.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's how I feel like I'm dying for someone else
in my life to tear a muscle in their calf.
Because right now is the most educated
it'll ever be on it.
Let me be your physical therapist now.
Somebody commented a ghostie,
either on YouTube or something,
that yeah, they were having calf issues
and then they did tear their Achilles, I think.
Really?
I want to say Angela Birdwell knew somebody that.
Dang, scary.
So.
I think I've made a full recovery.
You might get a kick out of this
because it just involves me just being weird.
So I played the whole tournament Saturday, you know,
with Kyle, it goes great.
Might've been a bit of overcompensation.
By the next day, I'm like, dang it,
my other calf feels weird now.
And not that I like tore it or strain or anything,
but it's like, it's tight and it doesn't feel
how it used to feel.
So then we were playing like a couple of days later
and oh, it was for the St. Louis Shock.
It was like, we're going to St. Louis
to film these big videos.
I was like, well, obviously I don't want to get injured
by any means.
Oh no.
But can I be the double calf sleeve guy?
Absolutely not.
So then my solution was, all right,
I have kind of these like under armor,
kind of like leg tights.
Yeah.
And I was like, what if I go double calf sleeve,
but then the tights over the top
to like mask the calf sleeve.
I was like, it's still not ideal by any means,
but I think all one color over my whole legs
is better than like the sliver.
I think the double calf sleeve is like rock bottom.
And I tried it on the night before,
did a little fashion show for Rachel.
I was like, here's option A.
She's like, that's rough.
And now I was like, I was like option B with the tights. She's like's like, that's rough. And that was like I was like, I should be with the tights.
She's like, I think that's worse.
And I was like, I think you're wrong.
I think I got to go tights.
Oh, when push came to shove,
I went nothing.
I just like was like risk it.
I was like, no, no.
Yeah, I was like, I'll be fine.
I would I was going to say if I would have if you had done
that, I would have loved to hear Isaac's like
how he would have felt about it, because they were like, we
need to see you before you go out.
Like, let us watch you in the bathroom.
Because the calf sleeves by themselves.
Yeah, that's embarrassing.
But then if you put something else over it, I understand why you're saying
like that would be less embarrassing.
But also it'd be pretty obvious, I think, if you could see through them like it's like,
dude, how many accessories?
And would those would those like not act the same way as the calf sleeve?
Those like tights?
No, they're they're not tight enough, not looser fitting.
But yeah, not like medical grade compression.
Really? Yeah.
Which I learned about that.
Hey, you survived.
I survived.
I think I'm all the way back.
You and Kyle both wore the same outfit, we'll call it.
We did.
A little uniform.
For the first time I've ever matched with my pickleball partner besides Jorts.
And with Isaac.
You go, I was like, oh, yeah, you got it later after the after the game.
Oh, yeah, pretty cool.
And you're like, yeah, we just noticed we were both wearing the same
the same color shorts.
And so I told Kyle, like, you want to wear the same color top too?
I was like, top?
I'm getting feminine being married or something.
I'm hearing all these girly terms.
Same blouse over here.
Scott was wearing pink shorts.
And it was after I'd watched Scott lose,
I walked in and Scott lost this like semi-final match
that apparently he was one point away from winning. After I'd watched Scott lose, I walked in and Scott lost this semi-final match that
apparently he was one point away from winning.
Yeah, I think he had like six match points.
Never put it away.
Oh yeah, he analyzed the whole thing with me afterwards.
And then he's like, but I'm still in the finals for the mixed championship.
So then I watched him lose that.
And we're just hanging out.
Like 11-0?
Yeah, so then we're just hanging out, kind of watching some other stuff, having, you know, talking, whatever.
He's like, surprise, you haven't made fun of my shorts yet.
And I was like, well, Scott, I was like, I was like, well, I feel bad for you
because you keep losing these games.
But yeah, your shorts are ridiculous.
Oh, boy.
She's a grand old flag.
She's a high flying flag.
Why did I say that? I don't know, because I grand old flag. She's a high flying flag. Why did I say that?
I don't know.
Because I like our flag.
I like old glory.
And I like new meat wrapped in old glory.
Woo!
I'm talking about GoodRangers.com,
the number one meat subscription company
that supports Americans.
Wow.
You included.
Wow.
If you consume it, or you're a farmer.
Yeah. Basically what they do, it. Wow. Or you're a farmer.
Yeah.
Basically what they do, it's all done here in America
from start to finish.
The animals, the farmers, the ranchers, the suppliers,
the packagers, the customers.
It's American meat delivered,
cause that's what they do.
It's gonna save you time.
It's gonna save you money.
It's convenient.
It shows up right at your door.

if you're into this kind of stuff,
is it's extremely healthy.
It's very organic.
It's hormone-free, antibiotic-free, and seed oil-free,
which is pretty hard to find, especially at this price.
Wow. I don't have anything else to say.
End of ad good ranchers dot com. American made delivered.
That's perfect.
Well, yeah.
Uh, we were after we got shooting in St.
Louis, we went to Buffalo Wild Wings because it was across the street.
And Scott is wearing, do you know, there's a pair of shoes he has where like
it's a black base, almost all black shoe, but there's almost like a
a rainbow road across like the toe of it.
It's like holographic rainbow looking across the like kind of the where the toe is.
Okay. And maybe a little on the heel too. I know Scott's been like,
eh, no, you're not describing it. No, no, it's on it. But anyway, it's a wild shoe. It's Scott's shoe.
And this waiter came up and I guess like Scott was over the side on the phone and complimented his shoes.
He's like, go tell that table. Go tell that table that.
And this like this like little black dude comes over.
He's like, you know, your friends got some shoes.
And we're like, what?
I was telling your friend I like his shoes.
And we're like, no way that he told you to say it.
He's like, no, no, no, I like him.
So.
How much do you tip you for this, bro?
Yeah, Scott's little rainbow road shoes.
That's funny that he brought it up to you.
He's like, go ahead.
I know.
Make fun of my shorts.
He's like, I'm waiting for you to make fun of me, please.
And I'm like, I was trying to be nice to you, man.
Because you could tell, he does not like losing, of course.
Who does?
But like, he wanted to win those tournaments and he didn't.
So I'm like, mom, leave it alone.
I won't bring up the shorts. Don't need to make him feel any more emasculated than he already does but uh
Anyway, I did eventually so that was fun. You came you and tape both got out and
When did you do you see me cop playing you did you saw us lose? Yes, but uh
Everything I heard from people that knew what they were talking about were like, Jake held his own.
Like you played well.
That's nice of them to say, nice of you to relay.
So thanks.
So it does make it nice when you have a good partner.
I had a blast.
Speaking of my partner, last Wednesday's episode,
do you want to do a comment of the week?
Sure.
That is your favorite.
You bet, pal.
I'm just gonna do a conglomerate, if you will.
There were so many comments saying more late night pods.
I love the unhinged boys at night.
Love how much the guys laughed in this late night episode.
So, yeah, all those together.
There is something fun about the late night.
It just does feel a little bit more like,
we're a little bit more relaxed.
We don't have any, you know, any you know whatever nothing to get to after this
probably right yeah night pods it different said Kinsey Noel thank you
Kinsey Noel I'm looking I'm sure I'm gonna start doing more Spotify comments
because man we got a lot from we are starting to get a lot of Spotify
comments 25 of them on Spotify which is so fun okay a lot of episode 42. We are starting to get a lot of Spotify comments. 25 of them on Spotify which is so fun. Okay.
A lot of them are decently just hating on Nathan Coley for not putting the jingle in there so I bet
I bet he put it in this section. Yeah yeah we're learning. Figuring it out. Let's see.
While you look I have a bonus one. I love that Brittany Gracious piggybacking off of Kyle's
Instagram caption of Cirque du Soleil. She commented, this podcast inspires me to go do things.
Oh, yeah, that was great. At first, I didn't understand. I read that without
remembering the context. I was like, cool. What did we say? All right.
What do we say this episode? My comment will be from Orange Mocas on Spotify.
She said, I anticipated the game Sia being Bo floating in the middle of the pool,
Brad yelling Sia as he cannonballs and just launches him
and they see how far Bo goes.
Sia.
Someday.
We're not quite there yet.
Bo's not quite the thrill seeker that I want him to,
I mean, he's getting there, but like,
Hattie on the other hand, I will,
it's so homeschooled of us, but I will literally,
like she wants me to play math monster with her in the, so I like,
she tries to swim away, I grab her,
and then I give her a math problem,
and then she gets it right, and then I say,
scale of one to 10, and whatever number she gives me,
I just launch her that much.
And so, now we've been like, there's an eight,
but there's also, we're in Sherman, Texas,
she'll be like, a Sherman eight,
which is just a little bit crazier than a regular eight. Sherman eight, but there's also like we're in Sherman, Texas should be like a Sherman eight, which is just a little bit crazier than a regular Sherman eight.
So anyway, but Bo's not quite there yet.
He still gets mad when he goes underwater.

Like he has this walk. He does we're just stomping with like this evil music, you know
It's kind of like a can of coke skit. The kids are just like screaming
All the comments were just like this is so great like cosplaying trauma

August I think it's two weeks. I
Think it's two weeks. Gotta figure that out. I know I got so much. Yes so much so much. I went to bed at 415 a.m. last night
Thank you for clarifying a.m. It was a.m. too.
Do I would do for 15 a.m. dude. I went to bed at two in the morning last night.
A.m. dude. That's that's crazy though. 4 15.
I know you lost power. Losing power on the same day that I have a ton of editing to do on the same day
that I've agreed to do this charity
Pickleball tournament. Oh, yeah six hours of my time
Perfect storm. It was a summer hours. I think I left the house at 430 and got back at 10 15 p.m
Pm. Thank you. No, but I mean I was very glad I did it especially scores some chief tickets helped out the charity
It was great met a lot of people give a lot of paddles away
But yeah, you know you sign up for this thing two weeks ago especially scored some chief tickets, helped out the charity, it was great. Met a lot of people, gave a lot of paddles away,
but yeah, you know, you sign up for this thing two weeks ago,
you don't know what's gonna be on this day,
and it was kind of funny timing too, just like,
all right, really all I have to do today
is let's just crank out this voiceover.
Well, when you don't have electricity
and the computer that all the files are on
plugs in, it's my desktop Mac,
I was like, all right, what is the best way to do it?
I can't go on my laptop and go in public
because I'm just screaming into my microphone
to do the voiceover.
I was like, well, I could,
well, basically the options were I just did it in my car.
Yeah.
I just finished the edit in my car.
Did you plug in in your car?
Mm-hmm.
Like you have an outlet in there?
Oh, no, sorry.
I just, so this was kind of funny.
I used my laptop because that was the only way
I could charge my laptop while still being in a quiet space.
But I couldn't see the video on my laptop.
So I was like blindly voiceover and narrating the video
that came out today, which is a one out of 10.
So something worked.
Like number one out of 10.
Yeah, it's the best one out of the last 10 videos.
Yeah.
So yeah, it was a grind yesterday, but got it done.
That is crazy.
In the future, I wonder if library would have been the move. Do they have quiet spots? Yeah
Really? We've been to him dude. We filmed a jean shorts video in him. It was like conference room
I'm a dingus and a half. You're right, dude
Yeah
You could even do a second monitor. So I hope my power goes out again
If your power goes out, you let me know I was nervous about my good ranchers to be honest, dude
Catherine yesterday and then she took it back so fast. She's like honestly, I'd rather our house flood than have our power go out
I was like what?
No, it's like oh, I just I do not like that. They're having to deal with their power being out. I was like you'd rather
Your house flood knowing yeah, she's like power going out. It being out. I was like, you'd rather your house flood?
No, wait, yeah.
She's like, power going out is worse.
And I was like, no, it's not.
Yeah, I can say, unless like,
even having in a specific situation I was in
where I needed my computer to do a voiceover,
it still was like, at least my,
well, I guess my basement was flooded,
but I don't have a finished basement.
Yeah, I was like, at the worst-case scenario you lose a
Refrigerator freezer full of stuff half gallon of milk a couple other drinks. Yeah, we went to renovate our whole basement
Like and it was a little warmer in here yesterday. Yeah, and that's about it
Yeah, anyway, yes, Catherine was like I know a guy that has a couple generators you could use that's pretty funny
Yeah, I'd rather just buy a new house
Then figure out how to get those generators working and powering my home. Oh my they could do it event. That's right
All right. Well, thank you guys for listening. Hey come to the ghost house get away
If you get excited, I we got. We got some spots getting filled up,
but I think there might be a couple more, maybe.
I don't know.
If anybody's getting a wild hair out there,
pluck it out and show it to me,
and I'll say, come on, bring that hair to the cool shores.
It's gonna be fun.
The group chats are popping.
We have a call with them soon?
We do, don't we?
Next week, yeah.
Like, yeah.
Yeah, cool. Good reminder, Jacob. Yeah, Next week, yeah. Like, yeah, next week.
Cool.
Good reminder, Jacob.
Yeah, I kinda got scared.
I was like, did we miss it?
Did they all do the call without us?
No, surely not.
Yeah, just a lot of stuff going on upcoming, which is fun.
But it just feels like there's less
and less margin right now in my life.
Yeah. You feel?
Yeah, I'm loving life.
It's fun, but it's so hard to figure out time management.
It's like, I got this standup gig.
Normally that's not a big deal.
I don't do standup that often anymore.
I gotta go through this whole routine
to make sure I have it memorized
while on top of like, she probably writes some new stuff
and I gotta memorize new stuff.
How long does he want you to go?
And that's just one night.
I think 45 minutes.
Whoa, that's a long time.
It's a long time for a private gig.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, this is the, oh, I was thinking- Oh, sorry, I have one in Nashville in like December, but I time for a private gig. Whoa, this is the oh, I was thinking.
I'm sorry. I have one in Nashville like December,
but I've got a private gig in Bolivar this Friday.
Oh, tell me about that.
And all this view connection hit me up.
I don't know if I'm performing at a church,
but some sort of ministry fundraiser, something 45 is a long time.
45 long time for private gig.
But at least these people haven't for sure.
Like if it was like 45 with Trey Kennedy, it's like.
Yes, that would be all new material.
That's very difficult.
Yes.
Yes, this one, I should be fine.
Okay.
All to say, I'm with you.
You know, we're trying to grow businesses.
We're trying to spend time with people we like still.
Right.
It's a good thing.
Good problems to have.
Yep.
Anyway, all right guys, thanks for listening.
