Got a glass of milk.
I was, surely it's not.
Is it?
What do you mean?
I was going to say, you look like you're drinking milk right now.
What else would it be?
I thought it was like a vanilla protein shake or something.
I guess it looks a little like chalky almost.
It does look chalky.
No, it's just straight milk, 2%.
Good for you.
Not even organic.
He got it from a gas station.
Go.
Why a gas station?
Close.
Oh, okay.

Uh-huh.
Yeah.

So, yeah, absolutely.
We were having a whole group text conversation about pudding yesterday.
Do you have a positive or negative connotation towards the word pudding?
Do you find it off pudding?
Oh, that's a different pudding.
Off pudding.
Yeah, I know.
That was a pun.
I was joking around.
Okay, sorry.
Well, I wasn't in this group chat, was I?
And I missed this group chat?
No, you weren't.
Okay.
I like pudding.
Yeah, Rachel was saying recently, we were at, this is kind of embarrassing.
We were at Pizza Ranch recently.
And she just got a dollop of pudding.
She's like, people sleep on pudding.
I really like chocolate pudding.
Vanilla pudding is all right.
I don't get very excited about it.
Yeah, chocolate pudding is pretty much always awesome.
Yeah.
I think the snack packs, remember those back in the day?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Mike Snyder, he always had the best snacks.
Licking the lid, getting a little around your mouth.
Yeah, I was like, mom, can we have some snack packs?
Mm-hmm.
Yeah, I think pudding's great.
Some people don't like the pudding.

Puddin
Puddin Teng
Puddin Teng
I feel like that's something my dad used to call me

Never once have I heard that term before
Puttintang is a phonetic spelling of
Pudding Tame a children's rhyme

Pudent Tang
Well I didn't have

some fun and go ahead, get on your feet
because it's a ghost from a podcast
Every month and morning,
you're taking around
Ghosts for the podcast
Time wins last time you had pudding.
This whole episode's about pudding.
Yeah, pudding episode, putting time.
I don't know.
I can't think of it.
When I think of pudding, I think of
chocolate pudding with tapioca in it.
And it's like, that's a good memory.
Whoa, whoa.
Kind of mixing races there.
Mixed pudding.
What do you mean?
I guess I just,
yeah,
tell me what type,
I don't know,
like the soft little squishy ball things
that are like,
tapioca balls.
Yeah.
Yeah,
okay.
Yeah,
I don't know that much
about tapioca pudding.
That was not a mainstay in my house.
We were snack pack family.
Okay,
yeah,
my grandma would always put tapioca in it
and it like made the texture like even better.
It was really cool.
So were they unbroken?
Whoa,
now here we go.
Sorry.
If I went to type,
I went to type in chocolate pudding
with tapioca balls.
but if you just type in chocolate pudding with
not what I expected the results to be
what do you think is at the top of chocolate pudding with
it's wild
chocolate pudding with mayonnaise
chocolate pudding with apples and it's not crazy
with vegetable oil
chocolate pudding with
like it's something that's like kind of ranch
chocolate pudding with ice cream
so putting with none of the top 10 results
are tapioca it is eggs
is the first one avocado
okay cottage cheese
Okay.
Greek yogurt, almond milk, cool whip, egg yolks, tofu.
Tofu.
If you're doing chocolate or talking about any tofu, just...
Just do something else.
Yeah, I don't know.
Yeah, don't eat.
And then with gelatin, which seems a little redundant.
Holy cow.
Sorry, I just had to throw that out there.
That's wild.
Yeah, I think it was like, it was kind of like Boba pudding a little bit.
Okay.
Yeah.
But it was like small little tapioca balls.
Oh, interesting.
It was nice.
Yeah, I also love the snack packs.
Buncha cruncher.
Tapioca pearls I'm learning about here.
Tapioca pearls.
Oh, those are like the boba.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Pupilipa.
Wow.
Now, I don't know the last, I'll say this.
We had something at K-State slash, I mean, it's not original to K-State by any means, but they called it Kansas dirt there.
But it was like pudding with Oreos on top.
Yeah.
I mean.
See, that's what should have come up on Google.
Yes.
That's what I was thinking.
Like pudding with, yeah.
With gummy worms.
Yeah, like dirt and worms?
Yes.
Yeah.
So good.
I wonder if like in Iowa and Illinois, they're very proud of their black dirt around there.
I bet they have a fun like geographical name for their pudding over there.
Yeah.
We call that topsoil.
Yeah.
Give me some of that Iowa loam.
I don't know that word.
Dang it.
I thought you were going to love it, dude.
Dang it.
I thought you were going to be like, that's what I'm talking about.
Yeah, dude, are you my in-law?
Let's see what a loom, maybe loom is more grass.
Let's see, loam.
A fertile balanced soil composed of roughly equal parts, sand, silt, and clay.
Sand, silt, and clay.
What can you grow in loam?
This is the soil episode.
Soil-soed.
No, but it looks like pudding.
It's similar to putting up.
It's considered the best all-around soil
because it effectively holds moisture and nutrients
while providing excellent drainage,
good air, and water filtration,
ease of cultivation.
How do you spell loam?
I'm going to text the steves.
Loam is like loan with an M.
L-O-A-M?
Yeah.
Okay.
There's probably more syllables than just saying the word.
All right.
It's simple.
It's like a car long.
but instead of the end,
you replace it with the M.
Yeah.
I was watching Brooklyn 9-9 the other day
and they're like,
what does BRB stand for?
It's like, it stands for a B right back.
He's like, why would you short,
it's the same amount of silks.
Sandy loam contains more sand.
Silt loam, get this,
contains more silt.
Clay loam, you're not going to guess it, guys.
Contains more clay.
And this is what AI is doing to us.
Well, that is neat.
Okay.
And now the dictionary version is a fertile soil of clay and sand containing hummus, not hummus, H-U-M-U-S.
This is like Jewish farming.
It contains a bit of hummus.
The Adriatic Sea, it has a lot of humus in the oil and oil.
Anyway, here we are.
Anyway, pudding, pudding, put in loam.
Putin, Putin time.
Blotamere, put-in loam.
So what other types of pudding do you guys like?
So it's hard to fill an hour, but no, no, no.
Thanks for getting us back on track.
Yeah, very good.
God's got my pudding.
Time's back on track.
Yeah.
I like, I don't know if I can think of another type of pudding I've ever had.
Yeah, it's more jello is when you get kind of more different flavors and colors.
But as far as straight pudding, it's vanilla or chocolate, I think.
I think I've had banana.
Oh, yes.
I don't think it was all that great, but I think I've had it.
Don't forget about it, though.
You're right.
Banana pudding with vanilla.
Vanilla wafers.
Yes.
dude. Now, this is new to me. I just had straight up banana pudding. I don't know. Oh, with bananas,
like actual chunks of bananas too? No, I just didn't have it with the waifs. Oh, all right. New Google
search. Banana pudding with, see what comes up. Vanilla wafer or banana chunks have to be. Yeah,
vanilla wafer's is number one. Chocolate chips. Kind of fun. Number two. Of course I would do that.
That sounds amazing. Yeah. Number three, cream cheese. They're trying to sneak the, the, the
fatty cheese into all my desserts. The cream cheese is nice. I'd be like cheesecake kind of. Or
Cotted cheese, dude.
Cottage cheese just makes everything creamier.
If you blend it, you'll be fine.
Avocado.
Catherine throws avocados in some smoothies sometimes and just makes it creamier.
Really?
Yeah.
All right.
She's trying to throw some wild things in our kids.
She's trying to get rid of stuff at the fridge.
She's like, yeah, it has celery, cilantro, avocado, and bone broth.
And I'm like, there's no way our kids are going to like that.
And they do every time.
A fun game I played with Rachel this week.
I would be interested to know, like, honestly,
you might be really good at this. I just like you have an enhanced palate. Like Rachel kind of reminds me of
Remy from Ratatoui and now that I've seen that movie. But I surprised her with a smoothie from
Whole Foods. And I told her, I was like, there's six ingredients in here. I'm not going to tell you any of
them. Can you tell me what they are? So she's just over there just sipping and just like love and life,
you know, while we're driving. And she got like five of the six. Really? Like with no,
you know, and they were, they're kind of wild. It was like there's apple, there's lime, there's
cucumber, there's celery, and I think she got like the ginger in there too. So, yeah. Fun little game
to play with your spouse. Okay. Just throw some things in a blender and see what comes out.
Yeah, it's an excuse to surprise them with something. Yeah, there you know. And also see how
enhance their palate is. And you can choose it, but you can be healthy with it if you want to.
Exactly. Sounds like you not only gave her a fun game, but you gave her a fun healthy game.
Yeah, you're welcome. Yeah. I, on the other hand, got an $18 assay bowl and this poor girl making it. I don't
think she'd ever made an assaye bowl.
And so it's just soup.
And so it's just like, just spooning, just like, I was like she microwaved an
osseye bowl.
There's like drinking the bowl, basically.
That's a bummer.
$18.
$18.
Yeah, it's the last one I'm going to get from there.
Your local Benjamin Moore retailer is more than a paint expert.
There's someone with paint in their soul.
A six cents honed over decades.
And if you have a question about paint, it's almost as if they can read your
mind.
I sense you need a two-inch angle brush for the trim in your family room.
Regal selected an eggshell finish and directions to the post office.
Benjamin Moore paint is only sold at locally owned stores.
Benjamin Moore, see the love.
Whole Foods is wild.
I don't know like I've been to a Whole Foods in a minute, but it is expensive.
Is it from Whole Foods?
Oh, yeah.
Who knew they even had us?
Yeah, they got nice little Ruby jeans in there.
Anyway, sorry, that was not about pudding.
I know it's adjacent, but we need to get back on track.
I'd say it's not the smoothie episode.
I don't know what you guys.
Good for you, Tyler.
Good for you, buddy.
You're right.
That's on me, guys.
Pudding.
That's on me.
What's Nana Puddin?
I know I've heard of that.
It's got to be banana.
No, I think it's like a character or something, isn't it?
Maybe it's not.
Maybe it's just banana pudding.
Nana pudding.
I've always heard that.
Nana Pudding TV show.
Huh.
Oh, this guy does not look like Nana Pudin should look.
I think of Nana Puddin, I think of Aunt Jemima's sister.
If I search Nana pudding, it's just banana pudding.
Nana pudding, P-U-D-D-I-N, dude.
Nana pudding.
Oh.
Three seasons in 1998.
Really went off the rails quick there.
For you knowing that.
I don't know why I know that.
Hey, how's the Matured Roaster's feeling?
It's so good, dude.
Yeah, just in my veins.
You guys have both been all over it.
It was fun this morning.
I woke up early.
Got a little workout in pre-podcast.
Nice.
And I woke up to time in texting me and edit for a video at 3.30.
Nathan Coley texting me and edit for a video at 440.
And I was like, this is fun how the turntables.
Because this used to be me.
Correct.
I was going to say.
Tray would always tell me that.
He's like, dude, I appreciate you've never missed a deadline.
I don't care if it's 3 a.m. 4 a.m.
Yeah.
And now, granted, just last week, I was the one who texted Scott and Isaac at 4 a.m.
Yeah.
What do you think about this?
So it flips.
But it was fun being on the other end of it.
Look at my boys.
It's not, yeah, you're not as consistently.
Yeah, not all the time.
Yeah.
just every once in a while but you can still do it you can still you can still roll up the sleeves
and get out as good as i once was but i'm as good once as you ever as timon will ever be yeah that's
right honestly i'm way better time it's ever going to be yeah how was the late night it was good
it was like definitely somewhat brought up on myself i like knew that it was going to be a late night
because i was like i mean i got to play some pickleball with the boys yeah you have to a quick trip after
i'm not going to miss out on that like i even i was like guys i got to leave like from
pickleball. I was like, I've got to go home. I got to edit. And then I was like,
uh, we're all going to quick trip. I'm,
FOMO is a powerful thing. I was like, I'm just going to go for like an hour. That is so Jake,
dude. I feel like you would say the same thing. You'd be like, I mean, I'm going to be
laid up late either way. Might as well, like, hang out my friends first. It's actually
easier to work once you guys all go to bed. So let me know when you go to bed and then I'll
go back and work. Yeah, I get it. Yeah. So it could have been probably like
one 45, but I was like, it's okay if it's 320. It's whatever. It does kind of feel like
it's not that much of a difference like at that point it's like I'm up late yeah by the time you cross
1 30 it's all the same you're kind of you're kind of just like at a second wind either way yeah yeah
I'm gonna be tired either way I am a big fan though and this is not a hot take necessarily but I never
never want to pull an all-nighter just because like if it's like oh it's 4 a.m and I can only get
two hours of sleep it's like get two hours of sleep yeah like I'll never be like I'll just I'll just
stay up because if I go to sleep it's gonna be hard to wake up it's like
no in the long run I think I always want to sleep even if it's for a small amount of time
yeah I think I would have to have something extremely important the next day
for me to maybe like push through the all-nighter it's like I don't know if I can trust
myself to wake up if I'm only sleeping two hours like I have a big fill in the blank tomorrow
I guess I just got to stay up but then wouldn't you be worried about your fill in the blank
but oh as soon as my fill in the blank's over yeah then I'm hopefully getting able
being able to pass out anyway where do you have
to you know been been pulling some late nights as well not not time and late uh cheers cheers to that
brother cheers to mason um i went to south dakotan back this weekend um and by this weekend i mean
saturday through tuesday very early morning um i'm so excited to hear about this yeah i'm
let me preface this whole thing except i think about how i want to talk about this because i'm like
I don't want to come across as whiny or entitled at all.
Okay.
So if you ever feel bad for me, stop it.
All right?
Okay.
So you were going to try to come across as objective and just not whiny.
Not whiny.
It's our job to not feel bad for you.
I just don't want, I don't want to be like, oh my gosh, that sucks, dude.
I'm sorry.
It's like, it's fine.
It all worked out.
It's fine.
And also, like, I don't want to sound like I'm blaming anybody but myself.
But it might sound like that.
if I say too much, I think.
I just don't want to be like, like, truly,
at the end of the day, it's like, dang,
I could have done better with this or whatever.
So at no point, as much as time and I might want to,
we can't ever say, poor baby, Brad, right?
Is that what you're saying?
Well, if.
Or what are the rules?
If I ever have a baby named Brad and we don't have much money,
you can say poor baby, Brad.
But you can label him, poor baby Brad.
In the next 30 minutes.
Yeah, this doesn't imply to all future.
But just for the next, for like the, for your story.
ideally well if i ever tell and i like i don't know i'm not i'm not going to put that on you guys just
in case yes we can say it but you cannot have sympathy let's go to the to the extent that whatever like
i'm whatever i just don't want you to be like dang dude dang oh dang i always want you find
find find humor so it's like a language thing okay hey hey hey find humor in it okay hey hey so
okay first of foremost uh the idea was leave saturday uh come home sunday
basically. No, no, sorry. Come home Monday morning. So Saturday, Isaac McDonald is coming with me.
I could talk so much about everything. But like, I had this like, what's the word crisis,
I guess, in my heart of like, dude. Christus is in your heart. Christus. Yeah, absolutely as well.
I got the joy, joy, joy, joy in the Christus down in my heart. Yeah, you drove a Chrysler up
there. It was a Chrysler. You haul. I, I really struggled with like, I asked Isaac to help me to drive
with me. And then I was like, it'd be cheaper. And it'd probably be more enjoyable if he drove
my truck. That way, we don't have to drive the U-Haul both ways. Drop off the U-Haul once you're
unloaded up in South Dakota. Right. But I felt really bad for him for some reason to do that.
Like he's already helping you out. Now he said drive by himself after a pickleball tournament.
I'm like, it's like a camaraderie thing. Like, it'd be fun to like be together in this whole thing.
But I'm like, but it'd be less fun to drive that U-Haul all the way back from South Dakota.
And so I just said, I told him all this. I was like, what?
And then I also thought, like, maybe he would rather just drive the truck by himself rather than like...
Sometimes I can be that way.
Yeah, 100%.
If it were me in that situation, I'd be okay driving by myself in a much easier car to drive.
And you were probably just out of like, man, me and Isaac aren't going to get to spend any time together.
Is that kind of where it came from?
Like, oh, dude, I don't know if I'm going to have any time to talk to him.
Yeah, exactly.
And so he's like, because he also, he was playing this pig ball tournament with you.
And so he's like, I probably can't leave.
Pickball tournament starts at one, so I'm not leaving until five or six, probably.
Yeah.
And so I was like, so once we decided we weren't going to leave at the same, or leave
with the same cars, like take two different cars, I was like, okay, I'm going to go earlier
than him.
Okay.
Long story short, I get on the road at three o'clock.
He doesn't leave till five, five 30, maybe.
Yeah.
But he's already up north.
So he's like not, whatever.
He's a little bit of a head start there because he's up north.
But you know back in the day, in those.
math problems where it's like, so-and-so leaves at 3 p.m. and drive 65 miles per hour.
But the other person is driving a Chrysler U-U-Haul.
Yeah.
And then, but the other person just got done with the pickleball tournament is driving 80 miles per hour.
Yeah.
Turns out that makes a difference when you're driving a long ways.
Okay.
So I, Google Maps says it's going to take me seven hours.
I stopped.
Let's say I stopped for 30 minutes total.
It took me nine and a half hours to get there.
Wow.
I know.
Headwind?
I don't.
I, I, I, I, I, I.
I stopped, dude, I stopped in Sioux City, Iowa.
Oh, lucky.
I know.
It was a great time.
Culvers.
I bought a hermit crab there.
Great time.
You know how it goes.
Yeah, it's great in the summer.
And I thought to myself, okay, I've been driving for, I think it was five hours at that point.
I was like, I must be pretty close.
I'm going to check my Google Maps.
It said it was three and a half hours away.
Yeah, you're just pulling your hair out, being like, how to, how does it make sense?
I was like, there must be a huge wreck or something.
What in the world?
But then I checked from Sioux City back to King.
in the city, it's only a four hour drive, a.k.a. It took me one hour longer than I initially
anticipated. It's so interesting. And I like chat GP, I was like, is it really just as simple as
just going a little bit slower? You're like, I know this isn't true, but did I cross a time zone?
I thought that. How is it possible? I was like, I was like, I must be in mountain time zone up in
Iowa or something. Like, I was like, what is happening up here, dude? I, it was, I was dumbfounded at this
point. Like, I was like, there's no way. Could the U-Haul go a normal speed? Like, you were
cruising fine i you're just questioning everything like did i ever drive in reverse honestly did a tornado
pick me up until you just said this i wonder if the speedometer was not quite accurate
oh that's a good todd it was heavy i mean it was a 26 it was a massive u-hull is the biggest u-hull they
have 26 foot cab cab no bed um i never that's like my counterclockwise clockwise
thing i have to think about it every time um but it was so huge and so heavy and so i was usually
driving like five miles an hour under the speed limit.
So I was driving fine.
Yeah.
But I wasn't flying.
Huh.
But maybe I was really going seven.
I was talking to someone in Ohio who like moved from Kansas City to L.A.
And it's all in one U-Haul, but it was like a really crappy U-Haul.
And they could only go like 40 or 45 miles an hour.
So they took like six days to drive there.
It was like, they said it was like, they could go 45 miles an hour.
Something like that.
They were just like in the slow lane of the highway.
Dude, okay.
And they said it was just the worst.
I mean, I think it was.
It was like, there was maybe also no AC.
There was like shirtless driving the whole time.
It sounded awful.
That's something else.
I don't know.
All right.
So I forgot about this.
So the U-Haul was fine.
I was getting used to it.
But near the end, like once I got to South Dakota,
the speed limit changes to 80 miles an hour.
Look out.
So I try to up it a little bit to like 70.
And the roads in South Dakota were just very mildly bumpy.
Like if you're in a truck, no problem.
Like you would barely even notice.
this. Yeah. But let me, I, I sent this voice memo to Isaac. Let me play this for you. I'll just say,
Isaac responded with, I can't believe how bouncy that sounds. I slowed down to 68. That helps a little
bit, but it's still pretty bouncy, dude. Uh, that's bad, though. Uh, don't be feeling good. I.
So that was actually the same one. I think this is,
you know this this first one he goes there's no way this was real
bro how bouncy are these roads for you
like listen to my voice
I'm just gonna I'm just gonna try to say the same
note over and over again
see if you can hear how
which I'm bouncing in this door right now
going 71 miles an hour
oh my god
It's like consistently bouncing.
I don't think it's just because I'm going this fast.
I feel like it's the roads being bumpy combined with my truck.
Are they crazy bumpy for you too?
I don't understand why it's doing this.
And every once in a while, I'll hit a patch that's not bumpy anymore.
I feel like I'm on speech jimmer.
I was going to say, that affects you more than speech.
she ever does. That's crazy. You have to be really bouncing to it affect your voice. Dude,
you'd be really bouncing for probably give or take two hours. Like, oh my gosh. Like I said,
every once in a while, you know how sometimes like you go over a bridge and it like sounds different
on the road when you're driving. Yeah. So every once in a while I got like a little solace from it.
Oh yeah. I mean, it was just like you kind of hearing the voice memo like the keys were clinking up
against the like steering wheel. That's so bad. So all that to say.
I drive there nine and a half hours, check into my hotel at like 12.45, and Isaac is literally
three minutes behind me. No way. Yes. He was a bounten. And so like literally Isaac leaves two
and a half hours or something like that after I do and gets there at the same time as me. Wow.
And Isaac's like, I stopped multiple times too. He's like, you know, I had to go to the bathroom and all
this stuff. And so crazy. I just chat you. You see that you had to drive about 450 miles, I think.
and the difference in driving 75 versus 60 is an hour and a half.
Isn't that a crazy?
And like a, yeah, not a crazy long drive.
And I always thought like, like in my head, I'm always like, yeah, it makes a difference
a little bit if you drive faster or slower, but like it's way more about how long you stop.
And so I was like, I'll just be quick with my stops.
You know, I stopped once to go to the bathroom and I stopped once for dinner.
I was like, I'll be fine.
And I had to stop again to get some coffee, but like, get some gas.
But like, yeah, it's crazy.
What was supposed to be a six hour trip?
I mean, give or take, if you could drive 75 the whole time.
Like, yeah, it added 25% to your drive.
Isn't that crazy?
And so, like, so that set it up.
I was already like nervous and stressed and like the whole day before.
Because you're not just dropping off product.
You're like installing it.
Correct.
Correct.
It's like, yeah, it's huge.
It's huge amount of stuff.
Like literally this U-Haul was full, dude.
It was like 20 beds, you know, two massive dining tables, 24 dining chips.
and then all these like small like probably 500 pieces of wood in there that are just like
for slats and connectors and all these different things uh along with like these living room
furniture metal chair or metal hardware whatever all this stuff and then all my tools like and so
the day before i was stressed i feel like i worked i think i worked for five hours straight
loading it all in by myself dang and it's just like all right we're going to get there it's
going to be fine you know we'll get a little bit of rest of this hotel that's like 30 40
five minutes from the lodge, we'll go. Isaac's, Isaac and I are leaving Sunday morning to go deliver
all this, uh, furniture to the lodge. Game day. And, uh, yeah. And Isaac's like, how long do you
think this is going to take? I was like, I'm trying to be realistic with it. I'm trying to, I'm trying to
like, hey, I don't think it's going to be no time at all. But I was like, but my hope is that we're
home for the Sunday night football game and we can just enjoy the Sunday football game in our hotel.
Home, yeah, in the hotel. Home in the hotel. Yeah. Okay. Back to the hotel. I mean, we're going to get there at 10 a.m.m.
Surely we're home by whatever it is, six.
Six.
You know, eight hours.
What, how, come on.
If we have nothing else to do other than just work.
Yes.
We can get it done at eight hours.
So we get there, vibes are high, you know, see my good friend Jeff.
He's showing me all around this beautiful, brand new hunting lodge out in like the middle of nowhere, South Dakota.
Sounds like a home run.
It was a home run, dude.
I'm trying to think of any other songs from him real quick.
He has one about friends, I think.
What if we just did, like, other people's songs?
Oh, dude.
It was a great adventure, man.
Yeah, friends are friends forever.
Yeah.
That's it.
That's it.
That's it.
It was a beautiful Agnes day, dude.
Anyway, so he's shown us all around.
It's great.
We're like, all right, let's get unloaded.
And so we open up the U-Haul, and there, right when we open it up, dude,
there's like a few of the footboards had, like, fallen, in the, probably the bounce had
had, like, fallen down.
and disassembled a little bit.
Not at the end of the world.
I brought every tool imaginable.
Yeah, you're ready for this.
I'm ready for this.
I'm ready for this.
I can do this.
I don't know.
That's the veins.
I'm ready for this.
Yeah, yeah.
I got every tool in the, yeah, whatever.
But in my head, you know, I had every single tool imaginable, honestly.
And, and Isaac, I knew that Isaac and I, we could do it and whatever.
But I think the optics of something like looking like it's like,
disheveled. Maybe, maybe affected the way that the whole thing looked to Jeff. Okay. Maybe.
Once again, just, yeah. And so he, I think his vision for the beds was that it was going, they were going to be
stained to match the rest of the aesthetic of the lodge. Okay. My visions for the bed were that they'd be
more rustic and unfinished like the previous lodges that I'd seen. Like we'd stayed in this other lodge,
you know that's like way more like rustic and you know whatever this not super updated no it's like yeah
it's more like old old fashionedy kind of I guess and I was like this these beds will be perfect for that
um and this is where it's my fault is because I communicated that with them to an extent but I should
have overly communicated and sent them pictures as I was like loading it in the truck sure like you're
not this is what they look like yes and I had sent him some at some point this is what it looks like
this is what I'm thinking, but we hadn't like overly confirmed that. And that's where it's like
my bad. And so we start on loading them or, but I can't say that. Sorry, keep going.
Timon, you can't either. I wasn't even going to unless we're talking about. I wasn't even going
yeah. Until you bring up your baby breath. Back when I, yeah, great depression hit my family
back in the day. And so, so we start unloading these things. And all of a sudden, Jeff just like,
Brad, I just got to be honest, like, this is not what I was expecting him to look like.
Wow.
I don't like hearing that.
And I was just like, he knows what he did.
Yeah, kind of.
And I was like, okay.
He's like, I just, these don't look finished like the rest of the lodge do.
You know, they don't really match the rest of the style of the lodge.
And so he's like, he's like, I just don't know.
And so immediately, like, I've just always learned.
I'm like, I'm always going to like insist on making it right.
That's like what I've just learned is the best way to do it.
than like try to argue or try to whatever like yeah yeah convince them otherwise yeah
no i think you are satisfied with it and i'm and honestly like the whole process i feel like
jeff handled it so well he was like good so gracious but also so honest and like that's what i think
a good friend does like it's not like i'd much rather him yeah be like ultimately satisfied and
direct with me then like you know be to be disappointed and not say anything to me and then
be upset with me later, you know,
yeah, in private.
Yes, yeah.
Right.
And, yeah, all of a sudden just like,
and so he didn't, like, I'm,
I'm so convinced that he did not do that.
And so, so I immediately, I was like,
oh, man, okay, we can figure this out.
Like, I was like, we can,
and I was like, I don't, I'm almost scared to say this,
but I'll, I'll take him home if we need to
and we can bring him back another time.
He's like, I don't want you to do that.
I don't want to do that.
He's like, maybe, maybe we put him in there for now
and we can disassemble them later and stay in them maybe at the end of the
season or something and he's like let's just let's just put him in there for now and so of course
i'm already feeling terrible about this of like dang because like i he's disappointed i respect this
guy like i i really like jeff and really want to make him happy among other things just want to make
him be a good business or i want to be a good woodworker and good business owner as well but also
i just like this guy um and then as we're unloading him we're almost done unloading him and he's like
you know what i just talked to mark who's like his right-hand man you know mark uh cook mark he's
Like, I think like we can stain them.
We can stain them down here in the, like in that shop down there.
Mark's got some stain.
We'll try to get some more stain.
And we can go from there.
And so I'm like, okay, like we can stain them.
Great.
Problem solving.
So this was Sunday at 11 and we needed very specific stain that is only available
from like lumber like like finishing stores,
aka not Home Depot, not, you know, the run of the mill place.
a.k.a. not open on Sundays. And so it's like, okay. And it's South Dakota in the middle of nowhere. Yeah, you're nowhere close.
And so we hunt down like a quart and a half of stained. So not very much at all. But we worked the whole day.
Genuinely, I think we worked 12 hours that day, at least. I bet we left there at 10.30.
And the process is disassemble, stain. Not necessarily disassemble, but yeah, like sand them down to a different grit so that they can absorb the stain.
And this is, this is what's funny.
the process was kind of that, but also the process was like they had all these people coming to
help with that job, but then a ton of other jobs. Because it's just like all hands on deck at
this point trying to get this lodge ready. And so all these different people are coming to
move other furniture and do all this stuff. And so Isaac all of a sudden is like assembling
like washers and dryers. And like, yes, dude, it was. It was like, oh, we need to move this
washer and dryer up there. And I was like, oh, we need to move this washer and dryer up there.
And Isaac's like, I can do it.
You know, Isaac's like running the show kind of, like a little bit, you know, like doing all
these different things.
I need two electricians with me.
I need a plumber.
I got a few ideas.
Yeah, those should be good.
I can, I can finagle with that.
Yeah, I can Jimmy with that.
Yeah, put in taintang.
You don't have a Tesla battery.
I'm going to install some solar panels.
Yeah.
We'll get this thing.
Yeah.
We're going to take this thing off grid.
Yeah, really.
So he's all over.
I mean, literally, dude, Jeff had just hunted a buffalo in January.
And so there was a taxidermied buffalo head.
Isaac's like, I'll do it.
Yep.
I'll hang that up.
No problem.
So Isaac and this other guy are doing that.
I mean, it's just, it's just hilarious.
Like the initial shock, it was truly like, I mean, so much of my whole, like, I've been
working on this for months and like finally, load it up.
It took me forever to load up.
Finally, God, South Dakota took me way longer than I thought to get it there.
And then like for him to be like, I don't like these jobs not done.
it's like day yeah exactly jobs not jobs not finished kind of thing and uh but so initially it was
shocking for sure but then it was like all right like like like like it's like truly like for like
like an hour or two it was like physically i felt it like shocking me like it was like i don't know
what a panic attack feels like but this might be a panic attack i mean i don't i don't anything like
this call or this similar happened to me but i feel like i can relate to like i just don't
no one likes feeling of disappointing someone disappointing someone who you respect you look up to it's like
Correct. I let them down. Correct. And even though like they're being cool about it and I'm trying to help them, I still, I'm going to feel bad for a couple hours. There's nothing I can do about it. And I think, I think he felt that I felt bad. Like he, like I said, like, dude, like, I've worked with so many people in so many different areas and like, like, like, I've worked with lots of Christians. And like he, and not, not every Christian handles it well. And I feel like he handled it so well, was so kind, so gracious, but also like, hey, we, you know, we're going to change that, you know, kind of thing. We're going to get done. Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah. And so I don't know. He was just so encouraging the whole time. But also it was just like, yeah. So anyway, it was shocking. But then eventually, like, it became like an inside joke of like, where else would you rather be right now? Where else would you rather be than hanging up Buffalo heads? I like, come on, baby. You know, like, like, like, Isaac was the best, dude. And like was so encouraging. And so like, we're going to, we're going to get through this. It's fine. We'll do this. We'll make it work.
As a non-woodworker. Yes. If I, I'm guessing, if I had to purely stain, that doesn't sound too bad. But the habit.
to sand everything down to get it ready to stain that sucks yes is that correct um yeah i mean
it's it's like i did 99% of the sanding like there were some other people that were like
yeah we can stain and even that was kind of hard for me to because i'm like i could stain twice as fast as
this person but it's like but i can't do both so therefore thank you for doing anyway um they did
great they were they were very helpful and everyone was super encouraging um so anyway we leave at like
10.30 that night.
We still have to go unload or like return the U-Haul back in town.
And so we get home to our home, you know, to our hotel at 11 something.
And no, that was wild, dude.
South Dakota, small town.
I mean, granted, like, what do you think of when you think of gas stations?
Like, or like, I know that's, that's too vague.
Gas stations, what are their hours?
They're C-store hours.
Like inside.
I don't know.
It depends on the size of the town probably.
See, I just assumed every gas station, especially one off the interstate, was like 24 hours a day, you could go inside of it.
I don't know.
I kind of want to thought that, too, until Ohio, because you were like right next to a gas station in the small town we were in.
And that was always like, I think it was till 10 or something.
Okay.
Yeah.
Yeah.
All these plate, like the entire town, like nowhere even close was open.
Oh, that's a bummer.
And so, yeah, the only thing that was open was like the hotel, you know, a little snack.
Yeah, snack area.
so we just loaded up on like three candy bars each and like beef sticks and whatever body armor
and just went back to our hotel and hung out for a while um so that was day one there's some
funny stories real quick from day one like almost immediately so there's this guy Truman shout
out Truman if you're listening to man he was awesome big trum 22 years old young dude uh stud
like literally like looks like a cowboy from Kansas City on found out later like his girlfriend
is like Justin Jordan's
niece-in-law kind of
kind of crazy, yeah.
He's like, yeah.
Hunt him up.
All these different things, crazy.
And so he's cool.
He's a manly dude, whatever,
like broke horses, trained horses,
wherever you call that?
Like, look like he was on Yellowstone, basically.
Yeah, yeah.
And we are about five minutes post Jeff saying,
I'm not crazy happy with this.
but let's just unload these things anyway
and I'm undoing some of the straps in the U-Haul
and I'm flustered.
I'm struggling with these straps
and this kid,
he looks like a man,
but he's 22 years old.
He just goes,
like,
just met this guy.
So he's like,
so are you,
like normally do you drive a truck or do you drive like a car?
When you,
like,
and I,
Isaac and I were just there.
I was like,
in other words,
like,
am I gay or am I straight?
It's like what this guy,
like this guy was just like,
taking my masculinity from me right there.
Do you like...
He's like, I'm just seeing the way
you're struggling with these straps.
I just didn't.
I was like, you know,
we were just giving us such a hard time later for that.
That's so funny.
Hey man,
I know I just met you.
Do you get manicures or do you like discipline your kids?
Like, did you have a dad growing up
or you more like, you know,
just hanging out with your mom all the time?
Yeah.
Do you like Patrick Mahomes or do you like Caleb Williams?
Yeah, exactly, dude.
Yeah, do you like Patrick Mahomes or do you like soccer?
It was like it was I mean so we gave him a hard time for that all. Yeah, that's great. Like do you drive a ram or you more of a Prius guy? You know, like all these different things. And he was like, dude, I was trying to ask that in the nicest way possible. And I think I asked that in the worst way. Yeah, you might have. And so we just, I mean, we gave him and he's like, this is crazy how you guys aren't letting this go. Like you kept saying that to us. And I was like, dude, that's kind of who we are, man. Crazy you aren't letting us go. He's like, it's crazy that you're still doing.
this whatever um so anyway that was hilarious i'm trying to think of any other uh things from the
beginning um no but okay so then the next day the next day isaac and i are like like i told
katherine about this and she's kudos to katherine like i was supposed to get home i was supposed
to leave early monday so i could get home because rosy has her first ballet class big deal uh and so
katherine wanted to go to that without the rest of the kids and i was like i don't i'm not
going to make it back in time for that i'm sorry and she was like i don't
like so supportive and so she's like you just just do the job right like do it right
finish it right like you know she's sending me these Bible verses the next day like she was
just so supportive and so kind and so gracious she's like we're fine over here I was like okay
um because I'm like we're not done and uh so the next day literally dude we had to drive
an hour and a half back the wrong way to get this stain like from this place all
and then drive another like two plus hours back the back towards the lodge to then go stain
it. And we, to our, I mean, to Isaac's credit, to my credit, like, it was like, it was like we
were like built for this, though. It was like, it was like our Super Bowl. Hey, we've been here
before. It was like, here we go. We just went to freaking town staining these things. Because I mean,
there's 20 beds. There's 10 head or 20 headboard, 20 footboards. There's 40 things. And we did
them all. And we went nuts. That's fine. I mean, yeah, who else would you rather be there with?
Honestly, dude. Honestly, honestly. Thank goodness.
he was there. I told Catherine, I was like, there's nobody else that would have been able to do this
in this way. Like I have plenty of friends that work hard. I have plenty of friends that are positive
people. I have some friends who know woodworking, but it's like no one fits this mold. He hits all the
boxes. Correct. Like Isaac does. And so we go to freaking town. We're, we stay in them all. We're getting
ready to go assemble them up in the lodge, which is another like big thing. Like we were prepared to be
there. Like we stayed in them all by 4 p.m. And we're prepared to be there. And we're prepared to be
there until we're done, which is like, maybe midnight.
Like, it was like, this is crazy.
And these people that were working there come up to us and they're like,
you guys need to go home.
Like, you guys, you're being cut off.
Pretty much.
Like, in the, in the, most, later on, I told Isaac was like, I think that guy might be an
angel.
Like, I was like, seriously?
Like, that was, he's like, we will take care of this.
You guys have been working so hard on this.
We will take care of assembling these.
That'd be fun if you meet this guy.
His name's Brandon the next day.
Like, hey, I want to thank Brandon.
Where is he?
Like, we've never heard of a Brandon.
Brandon.
You're like, oh, it was Timon's dad.
You know, it's really close to it all.
Time's dad's an angel.
It was really close to an Indian reservation, so maybe there's like a spirit of, like,
you mean walking stick?
I don't know.
Man, I wonder how many times I would have had to record this exact same episode to get to that.
To like, to wander into the Native American realm of who Brandon is.
No, dude.
But this guy, I mean, truly just the nicest men.
like they like it was one of those times like I felt right when we like got told we had to do
all this extra work or asked to do all this extra work I didn't obviously cry but there
was a time where I was like I want to cry right now if Freebird was on do you think you might
have cried I think if I had more time to myself I would have cried honestly yeah if like I was
like I want to feel so bad for myself and whatever and then like and then we were just so like
this this Monday like we were so adamant that we were going to go till we're done
job done that right when they said like hey we want to basically relieve you of your duties
it was like it was like the best feeling it was like truly like unbelievable like once again
I don't think I definitely did not cry but I think I was like so I overcome with like this
like servant like because they're like I kept saying like thank you and this guy was just like angel
he was like amen amen you you did a great work they like prayed for us before we left I was like
you guys are incredible so you guys like go outside and just like shosh
to the sky like dropped down your knees kind of not truly but kind it was like it was like
like Isaac and I looked at each other and we're just like oh my gosh because I mean imagine like
not only like we were working so hard for basically two days straight and we were planning to work
another six hours or more that's how much you had left at least dude we have no idea how long
it would have taken it would take it would take in forever um we saw to put together 20 beds
that were a half mile down the road so we would have to like transport them up there
deliver him up to the second story of this thing.
Wow, that is so kind.
I think I'm feeling a fraction of what you have felt.
It's like, Chris.
It was unreal, dude.
It was unbelievable.
Yeah.
And this guy, I mean, whatever, I could talk so much about these men that are working.
But one of the guys is literally not even on staff.
He's just like there.
Walking stick.
Truly.
He just showed up one day, you know, 50 miles.
No.
He had moved to South Dakota a couple years earlier and just like felt called to like just be a servant at his church.
And there's this.
man at his church that is now working on staff at this fellowship adventures. And he's like,
I feel like I need to serve this guy. And so he's been there like 50 days out of the year already
for free, like lives like two hours away and just like comes and like works and like works hard.
And then goes back and like has his own job that he makes a little bit of money because he was
even talking. He's like, I mean, I have to get enough money to like, you know, have food.
And I was like, well, yeah. Yeah, dude. That's cool. That's great. I mean, but this guy truly from
the get go, I was like, this guy is godly. He's a godly man. So,
Um, I can't say enough just like, it was like, holy cow. Uh, and then like kind of the humorous icing on the cake was, um, truly the worst continental breakfast we'd ever had was at this continent or this quality in, in, in Oakoma, you know, South Dakota. Like, we are not picky eaters. And it was like, we can't eat this. It was rough. It was like when I took time into the SBU cafeteria. We got spright. Right. And ice. Uh, Kansas dirt. I had a great time. I don't know what you're talking about. But, uh, we find this, you know, Isaac's always on the hunt for.
some coffee. So we find this place called the coffee canina. It's just like this little like
little shelf like coffee shop in the corner of a gas station. And we go there the first morning
and we both were just like, dude, this coffee is amazing. Cool. And so then of course on the way
the next day we get coffee canteen to get the canteen. And then we get done. You know,
they let us go. And we look at the time for canteen. And you know, it's 5 p.m. takes us 45 minutes to get
there closed at 6 p.m. It was just like, dude, and you know what the, like, we were already
riding high of like, we get to go home tonight. This is amazing. We could get into Tina one more
time. Truly. I was like, and you know what else this means, dude? Isaac, he kept getting this
thing called the saddlebag brew. I was like, you know what else this means? We're getting the
saddle bag one more time, baby. Get your bags up. I mean, truly like over and over again,
we kept being like, what a legend. That was amazing. You know, saddlebag brew. So all that to say,
It was, it was truly like, it was one of those times.
I mean, Isaac again said it was like, it was just one more adventure with you, man.
Yeah.
It was just one more time.
And I was just like, dude, thank you for everything.
And one of the things that kept us going in, like, while we were staining and going rocking hard was there was there was there was there was there was there was like, there was like, dude, I tell everyone about the DJ.
I'd heard kind of that they have this feature, but I've used it maybe once.
I think he was DJing in Gulf Shores.
Yes.
Was he?
Yeah, big time.
Given an impression of the DJ.
This is like, I'm trying to remember.
It's not a real DJ.
It's a automated voice.
Yeah.
Who tries to act like a radio DJ like, all right, that was this song.
And next, we're doing this song.
Yeah, yeah.
And now we're going to make it a little bit slower with some spiritual jams.
But he's like, it's for sure like a black voice.
Right.
You know, trying to like be all cool.
And every once in a while he says things that don't make sense.
I see what you rocking with, Christian.
Yeah, he's like, he's like, that was Justin Bieber with the closing.
He's like, with the closing, what is closing?
Or he'd be like, oh, yeah, Goo Goo Dolls closing it right.
I was like, closing the set, closing.
I know what you want.
A little force, Frank, coming right at you.
It's stuff like that.
These songs are guaranteed to get you on your feet, you know, whatever, stuff like that.
This will get your saddle bags brewing.
Coming right up.
walk a stick ain't got nothing on this
oh man i mean and
too like i kept being like okay
and he'd be like told you dude the DJ
but i don't mind the DJ
my one qualm is that it dissolves between songs
and i can't turn that oh is that because i thought that was
isaac set cross no and i can't figure out to like i would use
the DJ a lot more but yeah i don't like i hey what's going on
is your DJ X yes dude starting it off with ones you've had on repeat
lately okay and i am curious like obviously you
music is similar to Isaacs probably
more or less but like do you think
that same DJ is like DJ and somebody
like Bracey Hot Settler who loves
hard metal and he's like
all right coming up next we got some
hard jams from mega death
you know like yeah I bet as far as I know
it's same DJX for everybody
oh okay but yeah that would be funny
just regardless of genre
hey I know what you want
let's get your morning start right with some
avenge sevenfold
it's like all right
it's so funny that you guys like the DJ to me it feels like pay like I've already paid for
Spotify premium and now I'm choosing to have like an advertisement in the middle of my songs like rather
than just going from song to song it was like ironic like I think I was so conditioned to like
like when he came on I was waiting for an ad everyone's swam yeah oh here he comes yeah I don't
think I would normally listen like that but it was like really I mean we were listening to it
for five hours yeah maybe you need a little break get your head above water truly it was like
it went from Forrest Frank to, like, worship music to Bieber and some Gracie something.
You know who that is?
Gracie.
Oh, yeah.
Let me start, uh, open up for Taylor Swift or something.
Yeah, yeah.
She's great.
And then when Googly dolls and John Mayer and all these different things.
So it's like, it was a nice like every 15 minutes or so, it would switch it up.
So I would use the DJ all the time if it wasn't for that cross fade.
I just can't stand missing out the very beginning of the song.
I am with you, brother.
A lot of songs have an ending.
Yes.
And then they have a beginning.
And it's like, I miss both of those things.
And back in the day, it was really common for songs to just cross-fade out.
Yeah.
And I don't think that's very common anymore.
Yeah.
I'm with you, brother.
I cross-fade.
And I know you guys don't like it.
How much?
I think I do five seconds.
What?
There are certain songs where it's way too much.
Right.
I don't like it.
But whatever.
Like one second, maybe.
I'm sure you guys heard the new Spotify.
Lostless streaming is coming.
Oh, I saw that.
Yeah, I had to look up.
Like, how is this going to change my life?
Yeah, I was like, unless you're an audio engineer, shout out Justin, or like are watching this in a movie theater with incredible Dolby surrounds.
And we've got new nice headphones, though.
I do have nice new headphones, but they're like, you're probably not going to tell a difference.
But it's like uncompressed audio.
Oh, it does make a difference.
I know, yeah, I think I could tell a difference.
Maybe you could.
I follow the category of the untrained ear.
I'll say this, drive, you know, nine and a half hours in a U-Haul with terrible speakers, you'll be able to tell the difference.
Oh, you think the terrible speakers make it more obvious?
I mean, just, yeah, I guess.
And maybe not compressed audio, but it's just like bad audio.
It's just like, gosh, this is miserable.
Yep.
So I could only listen this like podcast after the first hour.
Dang.
Just because the speakers were so bad.
It was so bad.
It was like, I can't do this.
So tinny.
We're going to do an ad for good ranchers.

Like, straight.
Straight.
Day of day.
I used to be a truck guy, but lately I've been kind of more, you know.
Hey, new cast.
New cast dropped.
No more zest.
No more zest.
Yo.
Who is it?
Someone in the group me was like, dude, do you have gum underneath there?
Oh, yeah.
I think it was Janelle Vaniel.
She was like, it looks like you're hiding strips of like that gum that would come in a little.
And it looks like gum.
Oh, yeah.
It does.
It does.
It does look nice.
Yeah.
It's so funny.
Honestly, not a terrible idea for a gum pouch.
Snake, Kari.
Kari Sanders, sneak little gum in there.
Those pieces of gum were never big enough.
You always had to have two of them.
Yeah.
Yeah, most gum.
Not big enough.
I think of those pieces, though, and I think of them as like too spicy for gum.
Like too much.
Spicy, it feels like the word I would call when I was a six, but like two, yeah, too strong.
So many.
What do you know as a young kid about Listerine pocket pouches?
Not much at all.
Do you remember that, Kray's?
Listerine, like strips.
Yes.
Yeah, melt in your mouth.
Wild.
It's just like breath strips type of thing?
Yeah.
Ethan Choggin always had him.
Oh, he was strapped with him.
Once again, Mike Snyder, snack packs and listerine.
Yeah, I didn't care for him.
I didn't like the sensation.
I didn't hate him, but what would happen is people would try to put like four of them on there at once.
Oh, yeah, they would.
Just like, that's when you know the kid's psycho.
Yeah, this is a stepping stone.
He will do drugs in high school.
Right.
Yeah, this is his first step.
Yeah, like he's testing a limit with Listerine strips and six.
like he's he's got to have a problem he ate six sour or warheads at once yeah he uh yeah he
put the whole thing of altoids in his mouth yeah he likes pushing the envelope with consumption yes
it's only gonna go worse from here so yeah they had these things i didn't like it yeah they're like
these like films that like melted in your mouth yeah i think they still make them film was a good
word for it it was like putting old film in your mouth yeah it wasn't fun i mean it was just like it's
like when you put peanut butter in a dog's mouth i that's how it felt with me huh i get this out of here
Having never felt it, I kind of want to try it.
But like...
I mean, these days with microplastics, that's literally what that's got to be, right?
Yeah, you just melted plastic in your own mouth.
That had to be awful.
That's a good point.
But man, it made your breath nice.
And it was spicy.
You want to talk about spicy.
Yeah, that was spicy.
It's like burning off the germs.
Yeah, whatever used to be there is it burned now.
Listerine breath strips.
Yeah, they're still around, dude.
Are they really?
Yeah.
Three pack for 572.
at Walmart.com.
Well, you can get equate, you know, the store brand 427.
Not as well.
Altoids.
Are altoyeds still going strong?
Oh, I get some altoids.
Yeah.
For like snack on in church or like,
like, while you drive.
You want to snack?
I got a few altoids.
That's great.
Yeah.
I'll tell some just some quick rapid fire stories just from the pickupball tournament
Saturday.
I think there was a handful of funny things to debrief.
I'll start with the least interesting thing.
I feel like I take a lot of pride in like keeping track of my things.
First time ever left my SD cards and camera battery.
Couldn't find them.
I was like, I guess they're up at the facility still.
I called on this one.
It's like they're not here.
Sort of like two days.
I was like no idea where all that tournament footage is.
Jove up there myself found it.
No problem.
But it was a scary two days.
I didn't tell anyone else.
I was like, yeah, yeah, I'll get you that clip here in a little bit.
Once I find it.
Once I find it.
it was just like where I had been like filming kind of in the area but anyway so we're all good
there got the footage can I say a story similar yeah I could not find my keys to the U-Haul
when as I was leaving to go to uh South Dakota like as I was leaving Kansas City and earlier that
morning I had packed everything up and I had like opened up the back of it open up the back of
the U-Haul, and then I had, like, the lock for the U-Haul back connected to the keys for the
front, okay?
Oh.
And so I couldn't find them anywhere, and I was positive.
I just shut the door, put the lock back on, and they're inside of there.
I was like, well, I have another key to the U-Haul lock in my truck.
Oh, wait.
Isaac had already come and picked up my truck.
And so I was getting ready to get in Catherine's van and drive from my house to wherever
that was, independence.
Yeah.
and had the epiphary of I didn't check the shorts I was wearing earlier oh thank goodness
looked in my shorts found them wow but that was like that should have been a sign of like hey
this might not go exactly like a rocky start yeah but I I do think to myself all the time like I just
throw my stuff wherever too often so yeah now you know a little bit of how to be more careful
yeah I was glad to find the SD cards not that we even did that well in the tournament but
there were just a number of, like, funny things that happened that we got on camera.
One, for those who watched Friday pickleball videos, like, the first ever PPA tournament
Isaac and I ever played in that we filmed, we played against these, like, these brothers,
like a 10-year-old and a 12-year-old.
And we not only smoked them in score, but also I smoked one of them, like, in the neck
accidentally, like, while playing against them.
Because that's like, it's like, I don't know, that's like waist high for most people.
I'm not trying to hit them in the head, but it's like, it's right there.
And so I made a big deal about it.
the video I made a fake news article calling me this like abuser and criminal even in the video
Isaac's like dude come on we play that guy again this guy hits a shot like you know when it like hits
the net and but clips it and falls over yeah so it's like 12 year old like a like a net cord
he has to like sprint in he's like it's like off to the side so he's almost off the court and he's
also like right at the net and barely pops it up to Isaac and Isaac has the whole court
I mean, he can go anywhere.
It's an overhead smash.
And he kind of, I don't know if it's a mishit or how it happened,
but he hits poor George, just smokes him like almost in the crotch.
And I was laughing so hard.
I was like, dude, you could hit it anywhere.
Yeah, anywhere.
His poor kid is just like flopping around.
Gosh, so funny.
We're apologizing them.
His mom's there.
I'm like, I'm so sorry.
We are repeat offenders now.
So that's going to make for great content.
And another thing, which I think you'll find really interesting,
is we were playing these guys, played them a handful of times.
um before know who they are a little bit and it's towards the end of the game
isaac serves a ball that's um it's close uh but they don't call it out they return it back
their return goes about six inches out so i go out and he was like come on man we played yours
and so i was like wait what he's like we played yours i mean come on it's the same ball
and we're like if ours was out call it out yeah so
something called absolute truth brother so if it's true it's true if it's false it's false we were so
dumbfounded but we have it all on film and it's great i love the way we handle it because we're kind of
just like laughing just like sorry what he's like it's the same ball i just like we played yours and
you're kind of supposed to play ours and so i like call them to the net and i was like hey do we
have some sort of gentleman's agreement that we're going to be loose online calls i don't think we do
if it's out just call it out yeah and anyway we
just kind of get into this back and forth and his partner is like I don't I can't hear what he's
saying but his body language is just like so embarrassed he's just like hand over his head and he's just
like doing this like I think like you guys are good I'm so sorry so sorry about this well from what
I understand obviously there's like every once in while it's like I don't know if that's in or out
so just call it in right that's what's understood you're supposed to it and let you have to be
positive it's out right now to call it out but if it's out it's like six inches out we're going back
to the footage Isaac server was in it was just fun I don't know if
if he was just like a little butt hurt or a little just like mad, but it's funny.
In the heat of the moment, he claimed we weren't being lenient enough.
Hey, give us some grace, man.
I'm not trying to hit it out.
Yeah.
We're all nice guys here.
Were you guys winning at the time?
Yeah, it was like 9 to 8.
It was a close game.
Oh, it's not even like, it's not even like, dude, come on.
It's 10 to 4.
Come on.
Like, even then I'd be like, all right, participation trophies.
Get out of here.
Yeah, it's like we're not at Metro Brook Park.
We're at a tournament for cash.
yeah sorry we called your ball out that's out it was very interesting i've like talked to a few other
pickleball people like have you ever heard of this this like assumed gentleman's rule it's like spike ball
hey we're gonna do gentlemen serve today yeah or it's like we're filming a youtube video hey if we ace you
we'll just redo it yeah but it's like that's that's too bad though funny uh rachel came it's funny
even rachel is becoming a borderline celebrity in the pickleball world like people are so excited
like your wife's your wife can i go talk to her right she's actually your wife she's not just like
an actor that you pay film wife she's amazing at acting instagram wife um she was there and she even
got some inside scoop there was some a guy we played against and while we were on a different court
he walked by and saw our tripod sitting there not knowing that rachel is my wife and he like
looks at the tripod he's like wow that is obnoxious so then rachel away there's like hey by the way
this guy thinks your tripod is really obnoxious all right great that's good to know for the video later
that's great um and then last thing this is something i wish we were still rolling
our mics on. It was so great. And I was so happy that Rachel was there. I was like,
because I always come home with all these pickleball stories. I'm like, you were finally there for
one. Yeah, yeah, yeah. This guy comes up. It's like, hey, you guys played great today. And I've
been testing this like prototype paddle, just our same paddle, but just a different shape. And he's like,
I love the like wide body paddle. Like, can I get yours? And I was like, oh, hey, I appreciate it.
You know, it's an honor to want my game used paddle. But no, we just like barely have any.
I need this and I need to play with it. And he's like, oh, man, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I,
really want your used one and we're like well we've got about 200 coming here in a couple weeks like
you'll probably be able to order one soon and he's like so no more no more used ones and so we're
like no we really just don't have that many Isaac's piping and he's like dude I don't even have any
he's like I had a couple and I sent them to the players we sponsor like I have zero this is the one we
have he gave his to Truman this week did he actually yeah he's like that was the only one it's
like one of like 200 of those in the world and gave to Truman that's what I did in Vietnam too like
this hasn't come out yet you take it and so we're trying to over communicate this and every time
I think he's going to ask a new question because he'll pause and like hmm well what if what about
that used paddle you just played with and we're like all right so this one's not for sale um you know
what hey sure a thousand dollars let's try to go this route maybe this will like you know and um
he was like oh thousand dollars
That's crazy.
I go, hey, supply and demand, this is the one out there that exists.
And he's like, no, no, no, I can't do that.
I can't do that.
But could I get this paddle?
Like, no, dude, you can't hit the paddle.
We're like, we don't have any.
Does he want it, like, specifically, like, is he a fan of you?
And so he wants, like, hey, this one, it's kind of like a game worn jersey.
It's like, yeah, you can buy it, my home's jersey.
You can't buy the one from week one of 2025.
I don't know.
It was like, me, Isaac and Rachel are all there trying to understand this.
And he's like, we're like, dude, it's.
It's not for sale.
And I'm like, maybe this is confusing when I put it up for sale for $1,000.
It's officially like, I put my hand on his shoulder.
I'm like, hey, sorry, we were kind of joking around, but just I want to be really honest with you.
Like, this is not for sale.
Okay, okay.
Could I get that used paddle?
And we're like, what do we have to?
Should we go home?
What do we have to do at this point?
And he was pretty Asian.
So I don't know if that was the problem or not.
But just figure, I throw that in at the end of the story.
Okay. But yeah, it was really fun.
Used. Yeah, it was a little, yeah, hard for him.
I don't know what was happening, but it was great.
That's amazing. I love, uh, I don't, I tried to do something like that with customer service yesterday.
I tried to not take no for an answer and eventually gave up.
After an hour, though. I tried to be like the annoying person.
Who, who you've been talking to?
Um, one of the seats for, like, one of the chairs for, uh, this thing in South Dakota broke when that, like,
footboard thing fell on it.
And so I was just like, hey, I just need one more replacement seat.
And they've, in the past, they've always done it.
Like, I never dropped a footboard on it.
But they've always been like, yeah, no problem that happens in shipping.
But since it was post 30 days delivery, they didn't want to honor it.
And so I was just like, well, I didn't open it right away, you know, whatever, all these
different things.
So they did not.
They, they kept being like, sir, I don't know what to tell you.
Like, it was like, these people from another country.
And you have to go to the store.
I was like, but you're, you're the store.
store.
I'm talking to the store.
Kind of like what you talk about with the Verizon thing, of like, you're, why can't you do it
just because, yeah, but they could, whatever.
I have been in the process of switching bank accounts.
Shout out to the ghost, session one ghosties.
You're like, dude, you're an idiot.
Yeah.
Switching bank accounts is a part-time job.
Why?
What's so hard on?
It's just so much.
This is the bank account.
When I graduated college, I opened this account.
So, I mean, everything funnels through here.
It's trying to switch things.
I mean, my VINMO is connected to it.
When I pay off my credit card, it connects to it.
Yeah.
Both mortgages.
get directly pulled from it.
My car payment comes out of there.
I mean, you just look and you're just so many things connected to it.
And so having to switch all that over.
And some websites are like, oh, no problem.
Some websites you have to call.
And so, yeah, I've just been talking to a lot of customer service.
And it's tough.
It's fun.
It's a fun time.
That's something like the kind of times where you'd want personal assistant and stuff like that.
Yeah.
It's like, this is going to take me a day.
Yeah.
You know, like a full day to do all this.
Yeah.
but we're all good
I'm switched to SoFi we know about SoFi
Oh big stadium
That's what sold me
Hey I heard their stadium is nice
Go Rams
Okay is that online bank
They have an app
Yeah I know part of it's online
Like can you go to a SoFi bank in Kansas
I don't think so
I actually don't think they even have like ATMs
They're like but what's nice is because they don't
They will reimburse you for ATM fees
Oh one of those
Yeah
I've heard of those
So probably mainly online.
Online and stadium only.
Yeah, you can go to L.A.
Go to their stadium.
Yeah, get cash back on nachos.
Speaking of stadiums, this is a pudding episode.
Oh, yeah, thank you.
We put Tynman in our backyard to watch a football game.
Yeah, I wrote, Chiefs with Time and Good Vives.
Good vibes.
It was good vibes.
Sorry, we lost time.
It's even better vibes whenever we win.
But the String Lights, the Puppy Chow, just the nice back porch.
the fire string lights were blinding though it was very good vibes yeah and timon got to see
mahomes have like one of the top five plays of his career that was kind of fun even timon it was
like whoa yeah what was that what i just see yeah time it came over for the game and we yeah
i try i feel like we tried to explain stuff for a while and eventually i was like i'm like just
just watch it timing yeah it was okay it was great i took over a little bit just kind of whispering
did you so yeah third and long normally wouldn't run the ball i don't know why they did then
Yeah. It is weird that they do that.
And I think Scott tried to, from what I remember, like one time, Scott was like, I'll take this one.
I'll explain this at the time. And it's like the hardest thing to explain. It was like why the punt returner didn't catch the ball inside the 10 yard line and how the chiefs tried to down it or the Ravens tried to down it.
But they actually slipped into the end zones. Now we get at the 20. It's like, good luck, Scott.
We were explaining the yellow line. Yeah, exactly. It's like so first, second, second,
third, fourth.
Yeah, he immediately says the term field the punt.
And I was like, time doesn't know what any of that knows.
Like,
it was great that.
Like people lived up to,
because you had described some of like people's roles.
And it was like,
I think people lived up to it.
It was great.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Gunner was like vomiting the night before.
And so I think that kept his physical touch away from us.
Yeah.
Unfortunately.
But otherwise.
Yeah.
Peter left early.
Classic.
Yeah.
He was like,
all right, guys,
I got to go.
It's like the third quarter.
Yeah.
all right man thanks for coming
Scott talked about his puppy chow
which man does he love that puppy chow
it was good puppy chow like he sold me on puppy chow
but I was like I don't know if like yeah you were kind of
since I haven't had many others I'll believe it for now
that it's because it's his puppy chow but I'm not I mean I don't know
yeah he would love to think that though and I like that I know we should just let
him have it I need to stop giving more it's just too fun to give Scott
it was good texture there was good clumpage great clumpage
It was cold.
He loves it when it's cold.
Yeah.
Put some fridge.
No, that's new to me.
If anything, I like my chocolate hot.
They're like warm.
I like warm puppy chow.
That's how I grew up.
My mom would make like clumpy warm puppy chow.
Yeah, it was always warm, wasn't it?
Like you get it like fresh.
It's like we just got done making this.
Right.
I'm fresh off the shake.
Here you go.
That's nice.
I do like cold stuff.
So I'm not,
I'm not, but I do like it warm too.
I can have it either way.
Yeah, puppy chow.
It's kind of my point with Scott is like,
dude.
You're, it's like saying like, dude, I make the best peanut butter.
It's like, I have great.
Everyone likes peanut butter.
Let me pour the cereal for you.
I bet it's similar.
Dude, that gas station milk is way better than the grocery store milk.
It's like, it's always going to be good.
It's milk.
Steve Kupis texts back about loam.
Loam soils are good stuff.
I heard it here first.
Equal parts, sand, clay silt.
Check out.
Clay is smallest particles, then silt.
Obviously, sand is largest.
Obviously.
I didn't know that.
Too much clay is too tight.
Too much sand is too drought prone.
Okay.
All right.
There's our lesson.
Okay.
Also, while on the back deck, watch the Chiefs game, this very fun conversation took place where I was sharing a story.
This is like a third-hand story, but Trey and Katie hung out with the owners of the women's soccer team in Kansas City.
So you can assume they're well-off, wealthy people, so well-off that they hired Pitbull to come perform in their backyard.
and I just kind of brought this up during a commercial like,
what do you guys think of this?
I just, if I had a limited money,
I don't think pit bulls who I hire from my backyard.
And of course, Scott was like,
I mean, I put him my top 10.
And then I couldn't wait for you to come outside
because you were inside.
I was like, Brad, you missed it, dude.
Scott would put pit bull as top 10.
And you go, I don't hate it.
I know, dude.
I was like, oh.
I was like, this is a contrarian, Brad.
I don't know, no, dude.
Like, I don't think pit bull is a top.
10 musician. I do think for a party, he might be top 10. I really like the way Gunner put it. He said,
if I'm in Miami at a pool party, then maybe he's in my top 10. Like, everything has to be going
his way, where maybe I'd put him in my top 10. Yeah. Was I literally having him come to Brad Ellis's
Shawnee Kansas backyard? And that was the debate. It was like, well, if it's a Shawnee backyard,
that's a different list, I think. If I'm a billionaire or a millionaire, I'm not living in my house.
yeah so i think we all tried to come up with like who's your shawnee
like who's in your shawnee list it's this backyard right and then it was just funny
scott's like all of a sudden this pit bull advocate he has more songs than you guys think
and so he would keep like mentioning him and i was like i did get him hard time's like i know too yeah
because he kept being like timber and i was like oh yeah the song it's going down i'm yelling that
he sings that's crazy vocals he's like well that's kesh up but he's on it and he's like what
about DJ got us falling in love oh baby tonight DJ oh I love that he sings that part
right there that's the part he sings no that's usher but he's like in it everyone's
fireball fireball the one where all he says is fireball yes that's him that's him he carries
sucks actually um hotel hotel hotel motel holiday inn I think that's also usher is it somebody
I actually liked that one a little bit.
I see, that's one that I'm like, in my backyard, we'd be rocking that one.
You still think that fits in Shawnee Backyard.
It would, we'd have to change some, some decorations.
The stringlets would be different colors.
It'd be more jubilant.
Yeah, I think Shawnee Backyard, I'm going more.
I think Ben Rector, need to breathe.
Timer and I agreed, Ed Sheeran with a loop pedal.
I think he makes the top 10.
Love me some loops.
You ever do a common grounds in Waco?
Yes.
I feel like, yeah, anybody that would be good at common grounds.
Yeah, that's good.
It's a good vibe.
Yeah, they got string lights.
Oh, yeah.

I'm trying to remember what I have been to in Stratford.

My house.
I've been to that gas station by your house.
Yeah.
I've been to the Taco Bell across the highway that's connected to that truck stop by your house.

When I was driving this U-Haul
Because I was on the same eye level as them
You know how like
Usually like a trucker passes you
And you're like
You're like dude
What does this guy look like?
What does he do in the way he's driving?
Yeah
You're right there with truckers
Yeah just waving to him
They were my peers
Yeah
that's kind of fun it was kind of fun also very stressful just driving
do you think truckers are bumpy or do they
they feel like that they got a good chassis they would yeah they would have more
to like time more than you haul they would put time into like not having a bumpy truck
like maybe it'd be figured out I feel that that voice memo is so funny it's so funny
can you please send that to me bumpy yeah I'll send it to you oh that's hilarious
anyway well uh I'm gonna wrap this sewed up

building community five star review from mama
1127 421
Hot dog
I just finished every episode of the Ghost
Shorners podcast and figured it was well past time
to write a review
Jake and Bratter are genuine wholesome guys
who somehow make even the most
ordinary conversations hilarious and entertaining
they have that rare ability to turn
talking about nothing into something you can't stop listening to
my family even teases me that I talk to them
like they're my actual friends
whether it's a Monday or Wednesday episode
I know I can count on guaranteed laughter
and a little joy to start my week
thank you for all you do
to make this such a wonderful community of ghosties.
Thank you, Mama.
I love when people say that they feel like
we're their actual friends
because I contend
that you like that word.
I believe that we are your actual friends.
We just haven't met you yet.
We're like pre-friends.
Like the only thing that's stopping us
from being your friends is hanging out with you.
Is getting invited to backyard concert.
Wow. We should do one.
Just show everyone where we live.
I know. I agree, though. I mean, because, like, you guys know us very well. You've,
you are very much to our personality. And if you continue to choose listen to us, then obviously
we would be good friends. And hopefully, I mean, I'm sure that when people go to the ghost
stores get away, wherever, they're like, oh, Jake and Brad were different in this way than we thought
they would be. But hopefully we're not very different. I think we're pretty much the same
people, you know. Yeah, I don't even know what the major surprises would be. More of just like,
Brad picks his nose more than I thought he would. Yeah, or like Brad's taller than I thought. I think
it's like physical things yeah somebody said who has who said that uh or tencia probably or
you're really tall um so anyway thank you to mama for the kind review thank you mama um
a lot of good spotify comments it's hard to choose one but um last week i talked about how i was
trying to set this girl with braid and so i had tyler solts was to do a voice memo to impersonate
his voice brain commented wait who is this girl and is she also interested in is iac
what's funny is yes that did get talked about and she's like Isaac's a little young I was like
well how about Braden is your second option I got an older Isaac for a lot yeah I got an older more
affectionate Isaac man right up I am I am high on the Isaac trade right now I'll just say that
not that you're not not not that we ever have not been well it's tough to not be high when you've
stained that much with him that's yeah yeah that's good keep it there I'm gonna top it
That's perfect.
Thank you, New York.
Thank you.
No, we got a jingle.
Yeah.
Yeah, dude.
I missed this 24 hours ago whenever it was posted.
But old timing, Mr. Influencer over here.
Yeah.
Made a little content.
Tom, would you like to perform your latest single live as a jingle?
I'm down, actually.
Yeah.
Let me pull up the stuff.
I might have to cut this out.
But, dude, it was so funny.
Yeah.
Because Jake jokingly was like, yeah, we wrote a jingle called this.
And I was like, yeah, someone wrote me a.
Someone called God's Got My Wrist.
And I thought I was like, that's pretty funny.
And you're like, oh, Brad.
And I was like, well, I'm not supposed to understand it.
I'm supposed to understand it's a joke.
Like people write us parodies to stuff all the time.
And he's like, time and tell him, you know, check Instagram, whatever he said.
So I haven't downloaded Instagram back on my phone yet.
And it is by far the most entertaining app that I have.
And so my phone is crazy boring right now.
Right.
Which is good.
but also sometimes I just need something miss out on a few things yeah yeah I mean if you
could do it though I mean that's got to be so good for you just to getting your time back not having
right not scrolling not having social media is so nice I mean I don't even scroll that much like I
kind of just need it for work but it's crazy how it sucks you and the algorithm is so good I get on
there to post I get on there to respond and you forget all about it yes and then 10 minutes go
by I'm like oh crap what was I doing here yeah I was in the middle of emailing oh yeah
then that email is about this I need to check with this in their DM yeah
Yeah, that's the app, dude.
It's needs to make it like a brick.
Yes, a brick for social media influencers, like to be able to post, but nothing else.
Yeah, it's like give me either the create feed or the messages feed.
Don't give me the feed feed.
I don't want to see that.
Yeah, every once in a while I like get on Facebook to look at like marketplace or something
and I don't even get there.
Yeah.
I'm like, crap.
I was supposed to be looking for, you know, XYZ and instead I haven't had Snapchat.
Sorry.
I haven't had Snapchat in years, but there was an aspect of like,
at least it opens on the camera, not like what you need to respond to your notifications.
Yeah.
There's a way to navigate that.
There's got to be, man.
There's got to be a better way.
Time have we filibuster enough for you, brother?
Yes.
I believe I'm ready.
Yes.
Bracey?
Yes.
We'll see how the timing goes with this.
Yes.
And it starts with me.
So I don't know.
We'll see how it goes.
Hey, it starts with me, guys.
That loss is on me.
Should have known to stay in him.
Should have known to stay in it starts with me.
It starts with me.
All right.
Here we go.
Guys got my wrist
Nice
Oh I tried to land it
But I missed
Guys got my wrist
Even when I'm doing stupid flips
Guys got my wrist
Even when I'm falling off the swinging
I'll take all the love
That he is bringing
Why is this
This guy's got my wrist
Wrist right there on the grass
I could feel him there
I was falling really fast
I don't even care that I gotta wear a cask
Because I know his blessings are what's really gonna last
I can't move my wrist but he's moving still
I know that I miss but he's got more skill
My bones may be twisted but I'd just be trusting his will
Because God's got my wrist
Oh I tried to land it but
miss guys got my wrist
even when I'm doing stupid flips
guys got my wrist
even when I'm falling off this weekend
I'll take all the love that he is bringing
why is this
because guys got my wrist
even without any like compression or anything on your voice
you can mimic force pretty well
I was thinking the same thing
Yeah, that's impressive.
Yeah, it's kind of a fun, like, I realized when I would just sing the song randomly,
I was like unintentionally doing an impression of him.
I was like trying to like all this time.
Oh, they're going to learn to you bring it like that.
Yeah, you can match the little, whatever he's got in there.
Like a slight harmonica in his voice.
All this time we thought he was so unique.
No.
All this time we thought time we thought time was so unique.
No.
No, it's just an easy, basic, basic thing to do.
I could do it if I wanted to.
I just don't want to.
Let's do it later.
I'll do it later off the podcast.
Yeah, like not for.
attention, though. Right?
Just for each other. Yeah. I'll just voice me. You and me, bro.
And don't share with anyone. Yeah. No, I won't. Please, don't share it. Please, seriously, please
share with anyone. Dude, the more I've listened to that song, I don't know if this will be
relatable to anyone or not, but what is the line, God's got my wrist, even when I'm doing
stupid stuff. Yeah. Yeah. I want to, I want him to, I, doing stupidish is what it sounds like
every time. One of the unwritten, one of the lines that didn't make the cut was wrist, wrist, wrist, wrist,
wrist right there on the grass. I could feel him there. I was falling on my butt. I was going to be in the
video. But I decided not to. Yeah, that's what it sounds like every time. Yeah, you're right. Even when
them do it's stupid flips. Flips. Flips. I was doing stupid flips, guys, that's it. It's pretty
funny. Really good, though. Keep it up. Thanks. Yeah, I tried. I was like, in that video I made,
I was like, I'm trying to kind of match. If you watch Forrest's video where he writes the song,
I was like, there's a lot of references to it. I was going to say, yeah.
video but also yeah everything just like the warning graphic fall and like yes uh also kind of
it i thought this was underrated i thought it was pretty funny when i got out a ukulele yeah the guitar
sound was playing i can't play either of those instruments but no one's mentioned that yeah just
completely unplugged there's a strap on it that you're not using yeah the timing is off
can we do it can you put the whole video in for the outro sure yeah i think it's just i think people
would love it we'll do all right i'm sending this voice memo just for your own safe or
your own entertainment.
Amazing.
Good sode boys.
Good sode.
Oh, you hear about that?
That was such a funny text.
Dude, we were there,
vibes are high, South Dakota.
You know, Kenny's no longer working there.
He's just working there for the season.
Good boy.
Moved up to Montana.
Found himself a nice lady.
He's married now.
Yeah, a bunch of us in the Fezant group chat
were like, dude, oh, you're in South Dakota.
How's Jeff?
How's Kenny?
And, man, Jeff thought it was so funny
that we kept saying, good boy in the podcast
and all this stuff.
And so this new guy
Truman. Yeah, we're like, yeah, good boy, Shiloh, good boy. And Truman's like walking in with
like a headboard and just turns back and she goes, Shiloh's dead. And just keeps walking.
Okay. All right. Dead boy, Shiloh. Love you guys. We'll see you Wednesday.
A couple weeks ago, I fractured my wrist. Here's a clip. So I decided I'll do what anyone would do.
a fully original song about it.
I'm just gonna play a beat and freestyle and see what comes out.
God's got my wrist.
That should be a good start.
Oh, I try to land it, but I missed.
Even when I'm doing stupid flips.
Okay, let's see if I can hit this.
Let's see if I can do this and not break my other wrist.
God's got my wrist.
I felt that one.
Okay, I think I just finished the song.
Let me know what you guys think.
