Happy Wednesday ghosties.
Hi, Jake.
Hi, Tynum.
Hello.
Hi, Brad.
I don't care who you are.
I think it feels really good
when someone says,
you get that in there by yourself?
Who tells you this?
You're a gynecologist.
Whoa.
Sorry.
To a hot start of the episodes.
Yeah.
You get that or it could be like,
whoa, you did that all by yourself?
Yeah, maybe that's better.
Whoa, yeah.
Basically, like.
Oh, did you have any help on this?
Yeah, I've heard it a few times recently
when I have taken things to a guy
that helps me like paint and finish some of my stuff
and I brought these like massive
tabletops. Whoa, you get that in your truck
by yourself? It's like, yes, I did.
That's a great feeling.
It's a great feeling because it's like, and in my head
I'm like, yeah, but I used, you know,
simple machines to get it to help me.
Folcrum. Yeah, I use a fulcrum. I use some
Polly. Gravity. I used, you know,
what other basic machines are there besides gravity? There's
friction.
inertia.
Enersia.
Basic machines.
Yeah.
Or like, whoa, did you edit that whole thing by yourself?
Like, or whoa.
Did you, I will say something that does not feel good is when Catherine goes,
whoa, did you eat that whole frozen pizza by yourself?
I'm like, it, listen, it's not that big.
It's not that big.
It's thin crust.
I was only going to leave two pieces, so I might as well just eat it all.
Our fridge is full.
It's cauliflower crust.
It's practically like eating vegetables.
Yeah, sorry I had to be vegetables.
Sorry, I had a supreme pizza with cauliflower crust.
You know?
Yeah.
So.
Are there other ways to, I don't know, make people feel good?
Like, even, obviously they did that by themselves.
Whoa.
Did you walk here all by yourself?
Maybe next time I'm like spotting Isaac on bench press.
Every time he pushes it up.
Do you do that by yourself?
Yep.
Did you do that by yourself?
All by myself.
I'll by myself.
Did you drive you by yourself?
Other ways to gas people up.
Whoa, dude.
Did you text me all by yourself?
I don't know if I'm getting the joke exactly.
All right.
Well, we could do the theme song earlier.
No, no, no.
Let's talk about doing it earlier and let's do it right now.
Uh, uh, oh, ooh, I think this tight beat means that it's going down with some random thoughts
and white meat too Midwest best friends eating fast food on repeat.
So come along.
Let's have some fun and go ahead.
Get on your feet because it's a ghostrofts podcast.
We're taking ground
We're on this podcast
We're back.
We're back.
Happy Wednesday.
Hey, back in the episode.
Back in black.
Bown out.
Darn out.
Darn out.
Guys got my wrists.
Down out.
Down out.
Sing it time.
ACDC.
They're satanic.
They're satanic.
Alternating current, direct current.
That's right.
what they were standing for.
Yeah.
Australian country,
Democratic country.
I was going to quiz you guys.
Do you know that,
yeah,
where they're from?
Australia,
Australia, might.
They seem so American.
Yeah,
that seems so American.
I don't know why.
Yeah,
I have a low-stakes conspiracy theory
that British people
talk just like,
it's all for show.
Because when you hear them sing,
they sing just like we do.
They just talk weird.
The Beatles.
I was going to say,
everyone's while you hear them sing a little
different but sometimes not so much yeah so they're inconsistent which i think is more so like
i think there's extreme examples like louis capaldi who i can't really understand talking because he's
scottish scottish is a different language they're they're it's all made up they're united kingdom
but they're they're british versus scottish i went to scotland and it took me like two seconds delay
to understand everything they said you know what i mean it was just like okay let me translate that
wrote got it sometimes how i felt in trinidad like i know like they are speaking english but it's just
i'm having a tough time with trinidad was the worst trinidad was four and a half seconds yeah it was a long
delay i couldn't keep up every once while but um can we start this episode off with a uh
with a segment yes this segment is called uh relatable or not that much okay good idea
thank you yeah i just thought of it um okay i've i've noticed to myself that i i've got a couple pairs of
shorts and maybe a couple shirts. Relatable. Okay. I was thinking so. I would say.
Define a couple. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, some people think a couple is like four. Yeah.
I mean, I have. Yeah, it's relatable. It is it relatable? Okay. Let me go one step further.
Okay. I have a couple pairs of shorts and a couple T-shirts that I am like keeping just in case I lose a
ton of weight. Is that relatable? It's like, oh, these shorts don't fit. 100%. And I don't have that
much more room to go down. I'm like, I guess I could get down. I could knock my waist down
another 25%. Yeah. Something would dramatically have to happen to me, but I could do it. You have some
real tight ones. Yeah. It's just like, whoa, holy cow. It feels like I have to go to the bathroom just
because I put these shorts on. Are these shorts that you bought by mistake? Or are the shorts that you've
had for a long time back when you were skinnier? These are shorts that I swear used to fit. And I swear
I'm the same, I mean, like two years ago. So I chalk it up to the dryer. Oh, yeah. The dry.
Well, the dryer had all that issue, those issues with the water in it.
The water in the rear skewer, rotor, rooder, roder.
I can't believe how bumpy this dryer is.
There are, so if it gets too extreme, like I bought some shorts in Vietnam, and they didn't fit it all.
So I give those to Rachel, like that you could sleep in these.
But there's some of the middle ground.
It's like, maybe I could get to it.
Yeah, 100%.
Relatable or not so much.
Relatable.
This is not so much for me.
Because I think it would take an act of God for me to get less skinny or more skinny.
Okay. So you probably don't have any clothes that are even not fitting you right now.
What a, what a dream?
Yeah.
If a shirt doesn't fit you, what is wrong with it?
It's, no, there's definitely.
I think I still own some that it's like, I think I've kind of, because I'm still, like, I've grown recently enough that it's like, oh, this, you know, if there's anything that doesn't fit me, it's not because I got, like, I gained weight.
It's just because I've gotten taller.
Got taller, okay.
Yeah.
Show you mid-driff off a little bit, right?
I was putting old Henry's.
pants on today.
That boy's got a little bit of a dump truck back there.
It was kind of hard to get his pants up there.
Hey, good.
It was like, come on.
Good off.
Like, it was like, we might need some new pants for you, brother.
Just because it was his butt.
I mean, yeah, he obviously has a diaper and everything.
But yeah, I was like, there's something.
How you get all that in them dives?
Ask him that.
But yeah, 100% I have.
I have, you remember Baldwin?
Oh, the hat.
Oh, yes, the gene company.
Then a hat company.
Yeah, yeah.
I knew a friend that worked there back in the day.
Luke Seiler,
you know that name?
He heard of it.
I mean,
and so he got me a great deal on these jeans and they've never fit,
but I'm not going to get them.
They're nice.
I mean,
they were probably $300 jeans.
I think I paid $100 for him.
So it's like,
got to keep them.
I got to keep them just in case I lose a hundred more pounds.
Yeah.
Like I got them and I was relatively skinny compared to what I am now.
But I got to keep them.
They're like the raw denim, you know,
they're nice.
You for the rest of your life kind of jeans.
Yeah.
Okay, I was just big of it sure.
100% relatable or not, dude.
Can I go one?
Do you have a segment?
Yeah.
No, relatable or not so much, brother.
Mm-hmm.
I think that every time I go to Costco, it's like a mini version of war.
And I'm not trying to downplay war.
Okay.
But it's like a mini version of war.
There's so much aggression.
Sounds sick.
You got to get the high ground.
Dude, honestly, that sounds pretty sick.
Honestly, pretty sick.
I want to go to Costco now.
Yeah, every time, like, like people, you know, you know, so often it's like you pull
into a parking lot. Somebody's like, go ahead. It's like Costco, they're not, they're not letting
you do that. Same with like just the aisles. It's like people are just whipping their carts all
around. I don't know. It just, I went at like 11 a.m. on a weekday recently. And it was still just like
there's something about somebody's personality when they cross over the threshold into the property
of Costco that's like, I don't care who you are. I'm going and I'm going hard. I'm not a Midwest
girl anymore. Yeah. Do you feel that way when you're there? I'm trying to
think i don't go that often i know the parking lot's crazy so much that i like summons up another
low-stakes conspiracy theory the cars don't match the people inside of it you think there's more
there's two cars for every one person inside of a Costco oh they ubered there and then they ubered
home and then they drove there and they all told the uber to hey sit in this parking lot for a while
you get an uber x to go to Costco then get an uber x l to go home so many cars but yeah i mean it kind
stresses me out. I've said that one of my life
mottoes is, sorry, I was in your way. So, yeah,
I don't really like navigating. I
get in, get out, or just leave me in the
computer section. Yeah, like, if I realize
like I have to turn around and I miss something on the aisle,
I'm not turning around. I'm going all
the way around the next aisle. Let me get a running
startup. Yeah, because there's always somebody
in front of you, somebody behind you, and
there's no, there's no prisoners.
It's either kill or be killed at Costco.
I don't know. Like,
the parking lot is what really kills
me, because it's like, so often, you know,
I have a big truck, so I have to take a decently wide turn radius.
So I'm like, I got to wait for somebody else to go, you know, or whatever.
And they're just, people are not happy about it.
There's something about it being so bare bones on the inside that does feel kind of warlike to me.
Yes.
It's actually kind of cool that stores like IKEA and Costco, there's probably more examples for like they don't need the fluff.
Aldi.
Walmart's kind of doing it unintentionally.
But like you could like, what other business?
What if you did a coffee shop?
Just like, no real doors, no separation between you and the baristas.
just come in and like there's no lighting.
Chipotle is kind of a vibe like that.
Very industrial.
Yeah.
Metal and just like here's our stuff.
We're cooking it right in front of you.
Yeah, it's true.
But yeah, I kind of like it.
You're right.
Like it does feel like you're getting the best value at Costco
because they're not doing anything for decorations.
Yeah.
It's just like the way they would store it in the back is the way they store it in the front.
Yeah.
Do you have any more in the back?
You're like, brother, you're in the back.
You're in the back.
You've seen all my back.
yeah so anyway uh i've another segment for us great um this is called thing things i saw in discount
tire okay so everyone feel free to contribute okay as you see fit uh first thing is classic i go in there
get my tire chartated and they go we took a look at that tread oh yeah you got treaded it's at
it's at a four right now some of you have three whoa my god out of seven yeah i mean is this a uv scale
ricketer scale a hurricane i what are you talking about here
they got to know they got to know because every single day somebody's got to say well i don't
really know what does that mean tread scale is not i don't know yeah that's a gap in my
you know education timing you didn't learn that much about presidents but did you learn tread scales
i didn't learn that either what do what do there's gaps all around you learn major scales minor
scales and tread scales quiz for everyone here new tires he told me they started about
i'm gonna guess five i was gonna say uh i was gonna say eight but that feels like a pretty
difference between four or three. It seems so dumb to start at eight, but I'm going to go eight.
I'll give you one dumber. They started at 11. No. They're so close to 10, just
divide it a little bit differently. Come on. Oh, you had it. Did you guys not know about 10 when you
started this? Everyone loves 10. It's such an even number. It's a spinal tap of treads. Yeah, turn that
tread to 11. So yeah, new tire starts at 11. He's like, you're about three or four. So I was like,
All right. Take new tires. And then I didn't want more questions. He's like, so what are you
looking for in a tire? I was like, oh, yeah. What are the options? What could you say to that?
Oh, round. Oh, that's, that's when I, that's when I say, listen, me to be. I'm going to be the
easiest client you're going to have today. Just choose some for me. And I trust you.
Choose what you would put on your tires if you are trying to spend not too much money, but not
have terrible tires. Yeah. And go ahead. I accidentally kind of set a slur. And this is not even me
trying to be funny, but like this is just the reality of what happened when I picked up my tires
because it's some brand I've never heard of. And I don't even remember what it is correct,
but I said Yokohomo, which I think is not what it's called. It looks like that though,
whatever it is, something like it. Like Yokohoma or Yokohama. It's something like that.
Because he was like, all right, we've got Michelin. We've got, and Michelin's kind of this. We've got
Yokohama's this. We got this. And, you know, it's like, all right, what did he say earlier?
Because I kind of like that one. And I just went for it. I'll take the Yokohomomos.
He's like, ah, Yakohama's.
Yes, we can do this.
I was like, crap.
Yeah, Yokohama, that's amazing.
I wasn't even trying to be funny.
But best part of discount tire, excited to tell you guys this.
I am behind a guy in line.
Okay.
The back of a shirt says, I'm not a gynecologist, but I'll take a look.
Also.
How'd you get all that in there?
From the back of him on his tricep is the entire verse.
and Galatians 2.20.
Okay.
So we've got both at the same time.
Okay.
Which I loved.
I couldn't write it down on my podcast notes fast enough.
Those are so funny together.
Christ lives in me and I will check your cervix for free, is what he's saying.
Like how, you can't have both.
Pick a lane.
Pick a lane, brother.
Are you doing free checks or are you, yeah.
Maybe he's writing letters.
he's truly like he's truly just being healthy no he's he's being charitable he's he's being like listen
people do medical missions all the time i'm also not a paleontologist but i'll take a look but i'll take a look
yeah i'm not a tread tread tire expert he's just trying to say like i'm willing to explore
the the modern hernando de soto like yeah hey listen i'm not an electrician but yeah i'll try to figure
out i'll take a look and maybe that's what the front of a shirt said i can see the front of a shirt
you don't know how many of these shirts he has he's got one for every industry it's unfortunate that
you landed on the g day but he has one for every letter i'm not an apologist but i'll take a look at
your book and see if i can figure it out yeah the next day was probably horticulturist yeah for h day
i'm not a whore but i'll take a look yeah hort yes i'm not a hort silent i'm not a hort guy
yeah yeah i'll take a i'm not a ignatious rock but yeah i'll i'll take a no okay we can do another

it's like if his license plate said John 316 but he had a bumper sticker that's like honk

I actually did it I actually did it I actually did it crap I actually did it well time and edit

we we make boo boo boo we're joking yeah um do anyone else like to contribute to that segment uh free
water. Free Wi-Fi? Yeah, good Wi-Fi. Good Wi-Fi. I got a lot done. They didn't have free
they didn't have like a little mini fridge of water. I feel like I love. I always take advantage of the free water.
They might have been there. I didn't notice. I think I, I think I brought a bubble with me. When I, I came prepared.
I had like a fully charged laptop, headphones and an energy drink. Yeah. I will say downside, I think by
accessing financial information, a discount tire. I got a text yesterday. It was like, you're a Coinbase. Verification.
code is 6-9-44. And I was like, oh, boy, I'm driving down the road. I am not trying to sign
into Coinbase. Maybe this is because I logged in at discount tire two days ago. You think they
they don't have like the tightest security at discount tire. Why-line? I don't know. Because when I called
Coinbase to report this, they're like, have you logged in in public lately? I was like,
mm-hmm. I know. I know that you've gotten scant, not scammed, hacked. I think my identity was
stolen with like Venmo and Draft Kings a couple days or a couple years ago. So do you get nervous
every time now. Because I get those emails sometimes, like your account may have been involved
in security breach. I haven't done a thing about it ever. Yeah, the Google Chrome, your password
has found a security breach that bring it. Even now. Yeah, bring it. Because that's how I feel,
but I'm like, but you've experienced the next level to it. So I didn't know. The financial stuff
is pretty annoying. So that I called. Okay. And it went nowhere. Okay. So I'm right for the
plucking. Someone will take my money soon. Bring it on. Yeah. So anyone else.
see anything at discount tire this week or is at the end of that segment trying to think not nothing
notable how long did it take you a little over an hour it went too bad not bad a lot of charge left

I think that that cozy earth, uh, weighted blanket truly is like the greatest nap blanket in the world. It will get you there quick. You like, there's something about weight that just makes me more tired. And sometimes with a nap, I get a little bit stressed to fall asleep fast. Because you don't want to waste too much time falling asleep for your nap. I set an alarm for this time. I set an alarm for this time.

Oh, it's tough on the tires.
I heard that.
It's tough on the tires.
You know, you're a guy, you look like you, you know, he's be gassing me up, you know.
You drive her all by yourself?
You're pretty heavy guy yourself.
Those biceps, boy.
Even deadlift.
Are they still putting those little things on tie?
Like, they saw all those little like rubber things that stick up on like a new tire?
Oh, yeah.
Is that a thing?
Like the valve?
It's been a while since I've like looked at.
No, no, like the little tiny rubber things that like stick up.
They're like, you can pluck them off and satisfy.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Like, are they still on tires?
Like a...
No, no, no, no.
I don't know what you're talking about.
What is that called?
I don't know, like...
I feel like it's something
that almost sounds inappropriate.
I feel like I missed out.
No idea.
When you get new tires just to pluck something off
and I didn't get to...
No, no, no.
I would always like, on my dad's truck,
I would like be just like on the tires
like plucking these little tiny things off.
Hairs, the little antennas.
Yeah, hairs is like a good word for it.
Okay.
A little thick hairs.
Do you mine have Pips?
They're called tire nipples on Google.
Right or not.
I'm going to bleep that out.
Yes, they are, bro.
That is not making it on the podcast.
They're small hair like rubber protruses on the side of new tires that are natural
byproduct of the tire manufacturing process.
Wow.
And that's not the same thing, maybe.
Does that sound like what we're talking about?
I mean, yeah, they're like skinny little, they're all over the tire, right?
Yeah.
What do those do?
I'm scared to Google it now.
Either way, I don't know if mine have those or not.
I need to take a look.
But those are kind of fun to run your hand through.
Oh, those are awesome.
That makes you feel like you paid for something when you got those things.
Yeah.
Yeah. Like you just got to, yeah.
It's like really, you're due for another buzz cut kind of thing.
Yeah. Yeah.
Far apart grass.
Anyway, um, can we do a new segment?
This one's called, uh, what happened in my sleep.
Okay.
I am 80% sure this did happen, but I'm willing to say 20% chance this could have all been a dream.
Because like anytime something weird happens in the middle of the night.
But how I remember it was a, I woke up to a spider crawling.
on my face. Oh no. These pest control guys have got to figure it out. And so I sit up and then I see
the spider. We have our windows like open a little bit. So a little light does come through because I kind of
like waking up to the light. And so there is no blind like yeah. Yeah. Jake, maybe that's how
the spiders are on your face. Yeah, yeah. We took off the roof and it's nice out. Yeah. Did you do you still
have a hole in your roof? Sorry to derail. And by still, I mean, did you do anything about? Yeah. I mean,
still got half a chimney and barely a roof.
Okay, cool.
But figure...
Pest control has got to be able to...
Before we sell the house, I will get a new roof.
Okay.
Just someday.
No problem.
Why should we enjoy it?
Let's let the next people enjoy it.
That's what I'm thinking.
But yeah, a little bit of lights coming through, and so, yeah.
And then I see this spider just, like, in my lap.
And then I just, like, do that with the sheets to brush it off.
I do love the idea of this not being real.
And then I just go back to sleep.
Oh, yeah.
It was like, just don't be honest.
Just don't bother me.
I don't care.
You can live here.
We got playing nooks, plenty of crannies.
Not on my face, guys.
We seem like we're turning into kind of a pro spider podcast.
Aren't we?
I had a, this is so random, but I was at a park the other day.
And my computer died.
I was doing some work out of the park.
And I noticed that there's this little like outlet, like in the middle, behind a backstop of a baseball field.
Of course, right?
Where they always are.
And I open up the little like electric box to like plug in my charger and let my computer charge for a little bit.
And there's a spider in there.
I just kind of I blew it off oh sorry I did I was like no problem oh I didn't know you were
living here I didn't try to kill it I was like I respect you respect me get on out of here we're fine
yeah so that's really did Rachel wake up to this no she didn't know at all I told her I was like
I know you've had your fair share of things you think are happening at night so that's why I'm
willing to say maybe this didn't happen but I think it was on my face and then in my lap and then
this morning I woke up um at like price 6 a.m and this I know did happen because I was
I was like, I thought there was a, like, some sort of small snake or worm in my bed.
And I couldn't tell if it was like a living thing or not.
So I was just hitting the bed to see if it would move.
And it didn't move.
So then I'm like, I don't know what it is.
Like flicking it off.
It's like, whew.
And you just go right back to sleep.
And then I woke up.
It was one of Rachel's hair ties.
Oh.
But it was like long and spooky in the dark.
And how it got all the way on my side of the king's size bed at the foot of it.
I don't know.
But all sorts of just things in my bet.
That's wild.
I'm spooked now.
Isaac was sleeping on the way home from South Dakota.
And maybe it's when people are like sitting up while they're sleeping.
They might twitch more or whatever.
Man, he was twitching a lot.
And there was one time I laughed hard, like to the point where I was like, I'm going to wake him up.
Because he was just sleeping.
He just like had his hands right here.
And he just like brought him up like he was getting ready to fight.
He just goes, hmm.
Oh, it was awesome.
And they just went right back to sleep.
And I was just like,
oh, man, it was awesome.
It was so funny.
Dude, how was opening fantasy football weekend for you?
Man, I had a lot of fun,
really paid attention a lot to the games,
and didn't lose.
Hey, I'll say this.
In the league with my friends that I'm perennially bottom third,
if not bottom sixth,
I'm in second place right now
second highest score of the week
After one week
In the league where I only have to beat
One out of 17 people to stay in
I am out
And that's the same league
You're probably wondering
Like there's two guillotine leagues
That Brad and Jake are in
It's probably the one that didn't have
The girl that drafted 17 kickers, right?
You'd be wrong
Somehow
And that's the funny thing
is like literally I didn't even know the situation until it was over like I couldn't even
really understand like pay attention to it and all of a sudden it's like wait I'm out how this
happened I wondered how closely you were able to follow it so you were working that day but
you truly spent an hour of the afternoon slate on the chopping block in both leagues it was
looking really grim for you well TJ texted out in one of them TJ texted me at one point
was he's in the Wednesday league and he's like I'm so nervous for you right now uh turns out you
got kicked out of the Tuesday league.
And I tried to draft similarly in both leagues, so it makes sense.
Yeah.
Oh, man.
Yeah, just the league that we should have, I mean, there were people that drafted so poorly
in that league, and I drafted poorer.
Yeah, you know what?
We're focused on the Chiefs.
Our focus is on the Chiefs.
Honestly, it just feels good to not have to worry about that league anymore, you know?
It's been a really big burden.
Yeah, get it off your class.
I've been really working on, you know,
the guillotine league recently.
There was a guy, Tucker, I believe.
No, Harrison, Harrison, Dalman.
Both funny.
Harrison Dalman and I were going back and forth before the draft about doing
like some kind of blockbuster trade.
Yeah, that was great.
It didn't end up happening.
And then, of course, I get out and he's like, dude, now I feel even worse about
not training with you.
This is on me.
That's not your fault at all.
Anyway, if anything, I would have been worse if I didn't have it.
So, I mean, yeah, just kind of crazy.
I mean, some, by definition,
somebody's got to get out at the first week somebody's going to get chopped why not me right where'd
you got to be then kicked out of the guillotine come on the guillotine league is so fun if you make it
far enough but it is that that's that's part of the beauty of it is like you wouldn't want to put
all your eggs in your fantasy basket for the year in one guillotine league you got to spread it out
a little bit just in case you get knocked out early that's true yeah so kind of a bummer but
also your spread luckily yeah luckily I have three other leagues that I have to worry about
So it's all good.
The man is kind of a kind of a laffer.
How'd you do?
Fine.
Not too many scares.
You know, we did all right.
So didn't really make any transactions either.
You know, I think it's like, I have good quarterbacks, and you start two of them.
So we should be fine for at least a few weeks.
Save my money.
Yeah.
Stock up.
I have a savings account now.
So I kind of, the whole mine shit.
Mine.
I believe that.
Mine.
Mind shift.
No, don't bleep it out.
That was on accident.
That's not like you didn't cost on purpose.
Oh, that's amazing.
What?
What happened there?
Listen to hear, your little mind flip.
Mind shift.
Mind shift.
Whoopsy daisy.
Adjusting my mind set.
You know how some like,
like Southern people don't always say the G when they're saying like getting.
I'm thinking.
Yeah.
Like you just don't say your Fs.
Yeah.
You don't give Fs.
And I really, that's not even a word.
I'm trying to say.
say a mindset shift.
And I think that's what happened.
I combine a mindset shift
because I have a savings account.
Yes.
Mind shift. Minds shift.
Mindset shift.
Because I have a savings account.
3.8% APY.
Mindset shift.
Mindset shift.
So I save now.
Good for you.
Thanks.
That's fun.
Something else I wrote down.
Oh, a new segment.
Okay.
Jokes are of the day.
Oh.
This is something I've been occasionally giving away to people.
Yes.
In the session two group chat.
So just public shout out to some of the ladies who, I mean, every day they bring it.
I can't always keep up.
But when I do get in there, man, they're funny and they bring it.
So Emily Shung is, I believe, a two-time winner of Jokester of the Day, patent pending.
Who knew?
Yeah, I would also give her a secondary award that she splits with Isaac Brace, which this award is called,
were you this funny in person this week?
Be like, yeah.
Because you're extremely funny digitally.
Dang, I might have missed out.
That's the full name of the award.
And you've given that away a few times as well.
Yes.
So, yeah, jokes are the day.
Emily Shung's a two-time winner.
And then last night, I split it between Janelle and Haley.
Yeah.
Funny.
So funny. Everyone's funny.
Jokes her today.
Truly.
Just so Emily posted a funny thing in the group chat of her husband watching the podcast.
So we've mentioned for her.
a few times, yeah, the past few weeks for his funny comments.
And he had just returned home from work or whatever.
And so he was still in his, he's Asian, American, and he's in a like a black turtleneck
like underneath his like bed covers, like watching this thing.
And it just the, the image was hilarious.
And of course, so funny.
We're not, we're not the nicest or we're not, we're not just going to be people that are just
like, oh, that's cute.
Oh, thanks for watching our podcast.
Everyone's like, do you have this guy held host?
dude. Why can't we talk
about how he's in a turtleneck? Why hasn't anybody
mentioned this yet? Like,
just amazing. Everyone just let him have it.
I'm trying to let him have it. It's taking
a while to type it out. And then I see Emily Braves go
spit it out, bud. Like, dang it.
Just let me, I'm trying to find
the right gift. Dude, amazing.
How about Jesse Platner
drinking gas? That was, I
said, I was like, this is the best advertisement for a podcast
I've ever seen, because he just sent in like a
90-second video of just how his day went.
Yeah. It's like, man, this is hilarious.
Unreal, dude, like talking about, what did he say exactly?
Like, there was something that I was like, I'm going to comment this and I saw somebody else
already said it.
He was like, it was a little bigger fire and I was, I'm used to because he basically, he went
to siphon gas.
So that's how he, originally drank all this gas and he, oh, well, he starts, he starts up
by saying, I'm trying to get some, some work done.
So I put on free bird in my garage.
Yes, dude.
So I need to siphon some gas into my lawn more and that doesn't go great.
I swallow a bunch of gas and it's gross.
Well, then I start mowing the lawn or before I start mowing.
turn it on and then it backfires out of the carburetor you don't want that well now i got a fire
going and this is a bigger fire than i'm used to yeah that's that's what it was like he like yeah
a fire of course a fire in my garage yes yeah it's wednesday of course that's going to happen
but this was bigger than i'm used to so it was kind of a fun challenge and all the while i've got gas
in my mouth but free bird was playing it really brought it home oh baby i have something to say about
that i want to hear it uh rachel was telling me about a podcast that she listened to so this is you
can trust it and they were talking about um just being healthy and they're like obviously like white sugar
is like not good for you but this guy was like i would rather you consume cupfuls of sugar before
you consume seed oils okay he's like what happens is your your cell membrane is made up by fat
and what seed oils do is they replace the fat so then quite literally your body is made up by
Seed oils rather than what it's supposed to be made up by.
Wow.
This is like what I'm remembering by what Rachel summarized for me.
So that might be a little off.
Can I just translate it to human, like laymen's?
Translated to human, please.
Human's terms.
Seed oils are bad?
Seed oils bad. Seed oils bad. Seed oils bad. Seed oils live in you for who knows how long.
And most things in the world don't have seed oils. Is that what you're saying?
If it's got protein and meat in it, you might want to check that label.
Seriously?
You might.
But then you're saying, okay, so is there a place?
we can go to not get seed oils in our food?
Inter Solution.
Oh, wow.
Who's that?
I don't know that guy.
He must go to school.
His name's no.
They call him white sugar.
They call him white chocolate because he's, his name is good ranchers.
Okay.
And his pronouns are welcome to the table.
Slash, slash, slash, slash.

And let's just say the only problem with Good Ranchers is there's no leftovers.
Jeeves.
Jeeves, Good Ranchers.com.
DRKC.
Dude, so good.
What do you know about spontaneous combustion?
I know that's how we power stuff.
I thought you're going to say, I know that's how we're all here.
Big Day.
Is it?
No, I guess it wouldn't be spontaneous.
It'd be combustible engine, whatever.
Okay, go ahead.
Well, spontaneous combustion.
The only time I've ever heard the term is when people, well, maybe I've heard it before
this, but, like, in woodworking, people talk about, like, oily rags can spontaneously
combust.
Fumes.
I guess so.
Like, I think maybe, like, yeah, just balled up, like, oily rags or whatever.
That's crazy.
And I've heard of it before.
Like, I have, like, a little, like, oily rag can, even, like, a trash can that, like, is
supposed to prevent this or prevent the fire, whatever.
I don't use it very often, but I've never had issues with it.
South Dakota, it was like, Mark, the guy that's doing some of the work on the,
I mean, does so much around the FAA property and everything,
he was like, yeah, I threw a rag in the trash the other day.
I look over at the trash kid and it was smoking.
Wow.
And we're like, no way.
I've heard of, I've heard people warn about that.
You look at like stain can labels all the time.
And they say like, beware of spontaneous combustion, throw this away properly, put it in
water, whatever, all these different things.
But I'm like, I've never heard of anybody.
And then all of a sudden, he tells this story and like three other people in South
Dakota that are coming to like help out with different things are like, oh, yeah, I've heard
of that.
Oh, yeah.
I knew a woman who tried to surprise her husband by staining their deck and then instead
surprised her husband by burning their house down from a rag.
From a rag.
And so Isaac and I, you know, we're going to town, staying in this stuff that one day.
And some guys that are working there like, hey,
We have some food over here.
If you guys want to stop for lunch, so we stopped for lunch for like 30 minutes,
come back out and both of our rags are like noticeably hot.
Wow.
Yeah.
Like kind of cool.
Kind of interesting.
I don't know if it was the specific stain we were using or like maybe South Dakota is
drier than Kansas City or whatever, but like, this is wild.
So like we were like, we got to make sure we handle this.
Got a hose off our rags.
Yeah.
So we like put them in like a bucket of water and make sure they, we disposed of them correctly.
But it hadn't heard.
heard anything like that really too much. I hadn't either. Too many experiences with that. So I don't know
if anybody out there, that's a fun thing about Ghostrunners is like, you can just say some
random story and somebody will be like, oh yeah, I'll tell you about my story. That's a hilarious
bit about it. Yeah. Jesse Platner, half of them probably. But yeah, so he's probably like,
yeah, it does a pretty good fire, but nothing I'm not used to, you know. When you get gas,
do you keep your car on? No. Yeah. I've heard not too. Maybe that's spontaneous combustion too.
I think well I think it's a if your car were to backfire you would explode which I don't think it's
happened since the Model T but still what if this is the one time yeah there was one time I
accidentally left it on and I felt like yeah I just gave a dangering a child yeah yes so
I know some people one of my friends who she's she never turns her it off a lot of people
don't what yeah I've never heard that you couldn't that you could like keep it on that sounds
unheard of to me. Like, I thought it was like
you'd never, it's always turned
off a point. Yeah. It's, it's, I think
borderline, you're right. Yeah.
What? Interesting to people
because it's not that hard to turn it off
and back on again.
If it is actually dangerous. But maybe in like the wintertime
it's, you're like, oh, it's cold.
So you want to. I also heard you're not supposed to go back
in your car, like all the static electricity
stuff. Also, heard you're not supposed to be on your
phone near the gas tanks.
You're not supposed to be vaccinated and also fill up gas.
I've also heard, yeah, you have to get a microchip
and then have them do it for you,
pump the gas for you?
You can do it unleaded,
but if you do diesel and you're vaccinated, you're done.
There is some rhyme for it.
I can't remember,
but it's like if you're Johnson and Johnson,
then you've got it diesel.
I forget what it.
It's like a certain gas with a certain...
That rhymed, yeah.
I can't remember it,
but there's a vaccination
with the type of gas you can get ethanol.
Ethanol.
And Pfizer.
I can't remember it.
Pfizer.
Can you remember it?
I'm trying to remember it.
buddy.
I mean, do you remember?
Do you know it?
I think it was, if you get gas
when you're Johnson and Johnson,
it'll explode and you're going to be gone, son.
Oh, that's right.
No, no, I thought it was, I thought it was, um,
if you pump while you have, um,
in your veins, Moderna,
watch out, buddy, because you're going to burn.
Yeah.
See, I was either.
No, Jake's got one time.
I grew up on a different one.
Go ahead.
If you're unleaded and you use Pfizer,
call your wife and tell her goodbye.
Oh, yeah.
I've heard that one too.
Yeah, that was right.
Yeah, it was like,
before you accept after C and then right after that.
Say goodbye to her.
Yeah.
So.
I knew there was a rhyme for it.
It's tough to remember all of them.
But yeah, don't mix unleaded and Pfizer.
Yeah.
And then if, no, I'm going to stop.
We nailed it.
I was going to think of something with the booster,
but we're good.
anyway that segment was jokes here the day i have a segment called things i saw
slash did at the parade this weekend yeah you've kind of been parading it up people have
actually kind of been talking like do you see how many parades do you think he's a parade guy
yeah he's a parade a guy louisberg and alaytha listen louisburg i was not at that parade
all right i've been to one parade and one parade only it's olathe's old settlers parade all right
buddy don't don't put that on me man your kids multiple parades and rose
Rosie thinks, do I talk about this last week about Spider-Man?
You told me at dinner, but I don't think on the podcast.
Doesn't sound familiar time?
Nope.
Rosie in Lewisburg went to a parade that somebody was dressed up as Spider-Man,
and she put out her hand asking for candy, and the Spider-Man gave her a high-five.
So now she thinks that at every parade, there's going to be a Spider-Man,
and if you put out your hand, he will give you a high-five.
And I bet she told me this five days in a row.
Hey, Spider-Man, you high-five.
This was Monday, Labor Day, she went to this parade, and then Saturday.
day we went again and she every single day we talked about the parade talked about this thing so
was shocked when spider man wasn't there just couldn't believe it kept waiting she saw batman
she's like i bet spider man's coming yep yeah he's coming soon yep yeah dc first if you put out his hand
he'll give you high five like she says it like that like like like almost like expecting you to like react
right way he'll give you a high five yeah tell me i'm right yeah um but anyway parade was great it's the same
parade we always go to every year. We've been staying in the same spot for my whole life,
basically, 20 plus years in this spot. And my dad is, you know, I want to be my dad in so many ways
when I grow up, including this one, honestly. I love that you guys have a parade spot just for the
record. Yes. That's great. And it's one of those things where like my dad, being my dad is the kind
of guy who's like, this is our spot. We will get the spot every year. So I think he got there at like
seven o'clock to get the parade spot like so much earlier than anybody else is getting there do you
think you've inherited that i think i would like to yeah i i would i i really like the idea that my
like i think my dad probably really enjoys getting to the parade early sitting there having time to
himself getting to talk to random uh passers by that doesn't sound too bad doesn't sound too bad in your
little lawn chair you know right there what's he wearing oh he's wearing like a quarter quarter
quarter zip k u yeah so he's talking jahawks football team i look too bad this year now the basketball team
i'm worried about i have higher expectations no um and he went he walked down to the store down the road
to get a dozen donuts for everybody you know it sounds pretty nice it sounds awesome and he does
he's done that for the chiefs parade k youth parade royals parade like he does this all the time like
it's just like i'll just get there early and then i get the best spot i pass out donuts and of course
during the parade, I am also Dave Ellis' son because my dad loves anytime there's somebody's
name on a float or, you know, a politician, hey, Don, Don, Don. How are you, Don? You know,
yeah, good to see you, Don. Great day. We're probably the last, like, probably the last, like,
one-eighth of the parade route. So he's like, you're almost done. You're almost done. You guys
getting tired, huh? You know, all these different things. And so, and then he's always, like, he takes pride
in how much candy he can solicit for his grandkids.
That's like his new thing.
He's like, how do you both stay with me?
You'll get a lot of candy.
And so every time somebody comes by, he'll be like,
he needs some more candy right here.
This guy's hungry.
He needs some candy.
So he's just not ashamed to talk to anybody,
yelled to anybody.
And between my dad and then my brother-in-law's sister,
so I don't know what that makes her to me,
sister friend.
Yeah.
She works in the school district.
So like it feels like they know.
know everybody combined. My dad knows the older generation. She knows the younger generation.
And it's funny, like, my shift has gone from looking for, like, kids in the, like, schools
and, like, trying to recognize them to, like, trying to recognize parents and, like, teachers
of the kids. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. This is weird, but no green leaf this year, timing.
Hmm. Yeah, ever since I left.
Ever since you left, it's really gone downhill. But my dad, uh, did have one kind of heroic,
miraculous cool thing you know he's an athlete uh he was an athlete back in his day uh middle school
high school some band was coming by you know they're always doing like the drum roll
you know whatever uh in between songs and all of a sudden my dad i just see him like he's sitting
right next to me he just like has his hand up and he's holding henry he's has his hand up and he
caught like the mallet end of a like drumstick mallet from like nailing Henry in the face like
out of nowhere, basically.
He's just like, look at this.
This is from the drum, drumstick.
The hitters just sitting there, like trying to play with it, you know, try to throw
it like a ball.
You know I'm talking about like those like.
Oh, totally.
Like, yeah, they make like a deeper sound.
Like I think it was like a bass drum.
Yeah.
Drumstick.
So anyway.
Jeez, those are just flying off to bystanders.
Yeah, I don't.
Pretty unheard of, I think.
But it was kind of crazy.
Of course, my dad just kind of like any athlete can.
Like, Catherine's always.
I'm always so impressed when I'm like, when I just catch something that she like throws out of the corner of my eye and I'm like, I think I would do that. I think all my friends would be able to do that. I think all my friends that don't have cast would be able to do that. Every now that you see highlights of like a dad at a baseball game. Like, you know, saving a foul ball or something. But I've never seen drum mallet head. That's a new one to like catch and protect a baby from. But don't you think if I threw something at you right now, you just catch it. Yeah. Almost, almost 100% of the time. Yeah. But if it impresses the ladies and impresses the ladies. Certain things, Catherine, so impressed by.
That's nice.
She thinks making a three-pointer is impossible.
Whoa, you are far away.
Holy cow.
But if I dunked it, she'd be like, pretty impressive.
I mean, you're pretty close, though.
I mean, obviously, that's an easy shot.
Yeah, well, it's only like four feet taller than you are.
Time, what's the latest on Greenleaf?
Or just your acting career in general?
Acting career, I don't know.
I, like, did sound of music.
Haven't touched a show since then.
No show touching.
But I want to.
I don't know.
Like, I miss it.
You have the appetite.
Yeah. I'm like, I think maybe I'll throw in an audition to the theater in the park this year and like see what happens. Like that type of thing sounds fun. You're like I'm not a, I'm not a performer, but I'll give it a look. I'll give it a look at the book, script. I'll take a look at the book. Yeah, I don't know. It's like, I think at some point over the next few years, I'm going to take a time where I'm like, these next few months, I'm going to have my evenings cleared. I'm going to do a show. That's kind of what I have of the mindset of, but I'm not like in a rush. I don't know. We'll see. Should we all do one together?
please yeah yeah that's a fun idea so we do like a ghostrunners like like oh we create our own
no no no no no no no no no that's fun too but that sounds like way too much work it does so we find
a show that has a large cast and just be like everybody let's all go audition for this thing
together every audition what's the in the park doing this summer you know i'm not exactly sure
one like not a lot that i know i know of shrek they're doing shrek the musical okay
I don't know.
Shrek and donkey.
Are there any non-singing parts
in Shrek the musical?
Great question.
I have not listened to it.
Prince Charming, dude.
Prince Charming, maybe he doesn't sing.
Thank you.
Thank you for assuming that would be my role.
I don't know what else.
Calling me Shrek right away.
I'll say it myself.
All right.
Perfect, perfect.
Shrek, Shrek, Shrek, Shrek.
Oh, dude, Shrek.
Shrek, I'll be donkey.
I'll be a comedian.
Lord Farkwad over here, all right?
Yeah, that's the only one I could think of
that I remember seeing because there's a lot of
Wait, no. Hunchback of Notre Dame.
Oh, hunchback, hunchback.
Quasimodo over here.
This is my quasi-broto.
That is one they're doing.
That would be amazing.
That's a great show that I, like, actually know of.
And then a lot of ones that I haven't heard of.
They do, like, they're very versatile with their shows.
Because there's only a select few shows that are like, oh, everyone knows about this show.
There's lots of shows that are like, if you're a theater kid, you know about this show.
Pirates of Penzance.
Right.
Yeah.
But I'm not very.
theater kid by many theater kid standards and I don't know a lot of shows but they ever do any
football ones great question I don't know they did foot loose that has foot in it
yeah kind of yeah foot loose we should make remember the titans a musical they sang a lot
everywhere we go yeah he's saying that uh what's that psalms bible verse um we were we will
soar like the wings like he goes yo our uh church our pastor this
week, like, preached about Eagles.
And so he was talking about that verse and all I could think of was like, yeah, who is it?
What's his name?
I can't remember it from.
It's Rev.
Lou Elastic.
Yeah, yeah, singing about it.
Those that renew their hope in the Lord.
Yeah.
Those are hoping the Lord.
We'll renew this race.
Yeah.
So good, dude.
Yeah.
You seen that timing?
No, it's on my list.
I need to.
I need to.
So good.
We're going to change the way we block.
I'm going to change the way we tackle.
I'm going to watch that again.
That was one I have not revisited in adulthood.
I really haven't watched it in a while.
I've told Hattie, we play Desert Island all the time.
Would you rather?
All these different things.
And Desert Island, a movie.
If I could only bring one movie, it would be Romero Titans.
Wow.
Is she Prince of Egypt?
No.
I think she would say Sound of Music, probably.
Good for her.
Ever since she saw Friedrich in the Sound of Music.
She would say Sound of Music, but the Greenleaf version at Aval University.
Live action.
Yeah.
With the, with the man boy.
The only building on the island is Avilly University.
I just go watch it every day.
Oh, man.
When I went to your house to watch the Chiefs game this past week,
your kids were so excited to tell me, like,
we're watching Prince of Egypt.
Yeah.
I was like, oh, I'm going to come down during the commercials
to watch it with you.
And I did do that once.
It was such a funny image.
I think when I came up, you were like,
where were they sitting?
Yeah.
And I described it.
I said it looked like they were hiding from Nazis
because they were not,
there was like not a couch in front of the TV.
No, we, yeah.
They're like all on the floor under one blanket.
Right.
Watching Prince of Egypt.
Like in the corner.
I was like they were trying to hide from me.
Kids are comfortable anywhere, basically.
They were so cute.
Because whenever our house, our basement flooded that one,
we like moved our bed out of there.
We're like, we don't need this guest bed anymore.
So let's move the TV over, like, yeah, above the fireplace.
But we haven't done it yet.
And so I was like, wait, they watched it downstairs.
Where are they watching this thing?
Yeah.
So good.
It was great.
And Hattie knows the movie so well.
It was so like, just in the three minutes I was down there.
She's like, boy, Moses is a troublemaker.
And then two minutes later, once the scene was kind of over, then Bo's like, Moses is a troublemaker.
It's just so fun.
Like watching their watching them watch it and their dialogue.
Bo's really, he's really growing up.
It's fun.
He's, we've been reading, I like read to him every night now, like specifically me.
And we read Charlie Child Factory.
Now we're reading something called Hank the Cowdog.
You ever heard of them?
Oh, I heard of it.
Never read it.
Yeah.
I have friends who know the guy that wrote it.
No way.
I don't.
Yeah.
It's like, I grew up on those books.
Okay, yeah.
Yeah.
Oh, he loves it.
What was the, what's the three-legged dog's name?
Tripod.
I don't know.
I haven't, we have Drover.
Drover's the other dog.
Oh, does he just have a bad foot?
What am I thinking of?
I don't know.
Because Drover is definitely who I'm thinking of,
but I don't know why I thought he had.
He was just lazy.
Maybe he lost a leg along the way.
I don't know.
Maybe it's like his leg hurts when there's bad weather or something.
I don't know.
We read book one, and now we're reading like book 13 because he found it at the library.
Yeah, those are good.
The only one that I would get tons from the library,
the only only one we owned, though,
was the case of the raging Rottweiler or something.
Oh, that was a good one.
We're doing the case of the monster fire right now.
Okay.
But I read it in the very...
It's based in Jesse's garage.
I read it in a very, like, southern accent.
That's awesome.
Like, to the point where Kevin's like,
is Hank supposed to be like, you know,
85 years old?
Yes, yes.
Yeah, like, and I'll tell you right, right?
I kind of, it's like almost like a Steve triplet,
but like a lazier Steve triplet.
voice like it's pretty good so maybe i'll break it out good books good books that's so fun yeah
get to be characters all the time but he loves that stuff i mean he's just really fun and i don't know
he's growing up he's just being better like he's like behaving better sometimes sometimes but
the boy has grown up the boy's growing up ever heard that song um okay i'm trying to remember exactly
how it goes i was down but now i'm up remember that song
Cup, I thought.
I got Main Street rosers in my cup.
That's the original.
And then Forrest Frank did a cover of it.
He did a cupper of it.
I'll tell you, the only bad thing about Main Street is when I get done, no more leftovers.
Tough crowd.

Permission to do a segment
called Wins of the Week.
Yes.
Yes.
I'm also going to, in tandem,
I'm going to do L of the Week,
loss of the week.
Okay.
Loser of the Week.
My win of the week
is the first two episodes
of the Katrina documentary on Netflix.
My L of the week
is the third episode
of the Katrina documentary.
Okay.
Tell me about it.
I'm just going to throw this out there.
I haven't Googled it.
I don't know what the internet's pulse on this is.
This is just my own perception.
So Ghosties, tell me if this is relatable, how you experience it?
First two episodes, it's not going to blow you away.
It's not the OJ Simpson documentary or the Bin Laden, but it's like, oh, yeah, this happened
when I was 14 and I didn't totally realize how bad it was and how fascinating.
And I don't even know if I totally knew what a levy was.
And, you know, it's educational while also being very fascinating and interesting.
Two episodes, very normal documentary.
The third episode starts.
with like a three and a half minute spoken word from a guy.
Okay, it's not how I expect you to start?
That's fine, all right?
It's New Orleans.
Yeah.
Maybe it's the culture.
And then it becomes like, someone will like, it'll show them like starting their interview.
So it's classic where they're like sitting down in the chair, which one's my mic?
Okay, great.
And they're getting miced up.
And it'll say, it's on screen that says who they are.
These are the people they've been interviewing the past two episodes.
But it feels like you're being introduced to them in the third episode.
I had to go back.
I was like, did I watch this out of order?
Yes, I was going to say, it sounds like they did this one first, and they're like,
well, we should probably do the origin stories, actually.
So let's do this one.
Yeah, something weird happened in post-production here because I think someone completely different
edited the third episode.
It looks like a YouTube video.
They will flash words on screen and like bright red letters when someone says, like, devastating.
Devastating and red letters will flash on screen.
It just looks so amateur compared to like, it's like Netflix documentary, Netflix documentary,
Teenage YouTube video.
They're trying to be like artsy and original kind of.
the whole third episode is just interviews it went from a documentary to like a commentary
I was gonna say before you before you said more I was like maybe like I respect them going
in a different direction like maybe it's not necessarily a good thing that it's like just like
another documentary it's like they're changing it up but this sounds bad maybe they ran out
a budget like they got through two and didn't realize they would need way more money to edit the
rest of it maybe they signed a contract for three episodes like well we have all this interview
footage we could just do interviews for an hour 15 which that's what a documentary
is. So maybe I'm not describing well, but trust me, bad, bad, bad. It's like noticeably different
vibes. Bad, bad, bad. Yeah. I mean, just in general, I don't want to usually watch three-part
documentaries. I want to, I'll watch a long one. Long one. Yeah. Long one's good. I think that's good
enough for me. Most of the time I'm more interested in the origin than like the resolution.
The meat. Or yeah, even resolution's good. Yeah. Like it's like, you know, what are they doing now? It's like,
I kind of know what they're doing now. Yeah. You know, for the most.
part. O.J. Simpson, was that a 10-parter, eight-parter? It was good, though.
It was good. I like that one a lot. And like, there's certain ones because I knew nothing about
that. Yeah. And it was multifaceted. So, whatever. Had a lot of content. I've started watching
the Dallas Cowboys one. People say good things. Really enjoy it. Really? Should I watch it? So far.
I think I'm only like halfway through episode three. So, but yeah, it's like old enough to where I don't really
know the story but I know the players and like know the names and so pretty cool I'll check it
out um all right you want me do my wins and then you do your wins and yeah sorry to spring this
kind of segment on you I know the other ones you were prepared for but no no no you you did good
with the ls of the week I could think about this a little bit so wins of the week um let's see
okay I'll do I'll do three um win of the week number one just super trite super uh non it's central
but I found my iPod touch recently.
Oh.
And I ordered on Amazon a USB, like charger for it and everything because the U-Haul didn't have like a Bluetooth or anything like that.
Oh.
And so I was like, maybe I should just get my iPod touch.
Yeah.
Long story short, end up figuring out a way to do it with my phone.
But I have my iPod touch now and I am so pumped just like, I'm going to just keep it in my truck and just like only listen to the iPod touch in the truck and just like.
It's your touch truck.
Yeah, I looked up.
I have 7,000 songs on there.
That's enough.
Which feels like enough.
It also feels like I at one point had way more, but I don't know what happened.
But like I have stuff on there.
It's like not even out in the world.
You know what I mean?
Like fun stuff like that.
Music can be so fun because it will take you back places you haven't thought about
since the last time you heard that song.
Yeah.
Oh my gosh.
Senior year of high school.
Totally.
So many bands on there that I'm like, I forgot.
I've listened to this band Aqualong.
Haven't listened to Aqualong in forever, dude.
It'd be very fun to try and just like straight shuffle every song
and not touch it, just like slowly, slowly make my way through 7,000 songs.
Right.
Do you remember, did you have an iPod touch or a nano or anything?
Yeah. Like they had like the genius on there.
That was like the first like, oh yeah, thing that was like.
I didn't play around with that too much.
And they had something called cover art.
Remember cover art where you just like scroll through all the albums?
Yeah.
Yep, yep, yep, yep.
So anyway, iPod Touch, really exciting.
Number two, just in the light of all the crazy stuff that happened yesterday with Charlie
Kirk and all that.
I'm just very grateful winter of the week.
It's grateful to be a dad.
I picked up Rosie last night from Oana,
and her teacher was like,
she was just telling me about how her dad is her favorite person
in the whole world.
And I was like, what?
All right.
You know, so I mean, yeah,
we don't have to get too far into it,
but it's just,
you never want to take those things for granted.
Totally.
And so,
yeah.
And then number three,
win of the week is I just put down
Isaac freaking McDonald.
I just was like,
like I told Catherine,
I told you this too,
like on the podcast,
but like no one could have done that job except for Isaac yeah like no one could have been and like
Isaac was like so like we're getting it done dude we can do it we'll make it work like he had a wedding
he was going to in north carolina this week and like had all this crazy stuff but he's like no I'll make
things work I'll cancel pickle pickleball lessons like I'll postpone those if I have to like do he's
like I know what this feels like for you and we can do this we'll get this like through this together
and like was so positive like I told that story about how I had to go early in the morning
on Monday to go, like, drive an hour and I have to get that stain and then drive back past
the hotel to, like, go to the lodge, two hours to, like, go to the lodge. And so I was telling
Isaac goes, like, okay, so I'll just get up and leave it around six in the morning. And then I'll come
pick you up at, like, nine. And you sleep in. He's like, are you kidding? He's like, I'm going
with you, dude. Like, you know, just like stuff like that. And so Catherine, I was telling her
similar things the other night. And she's like, how do we raise our sons to be like Isaac?
Like, you know, that's like, he's just the man. He's just wonderful and hard.
hardworking and good friend good friend and just and just awesome in so many ways and uh just
just a brother man he's just he's just the man so isaac freaking macdonald win in the week number

Three-way segment. I said segment.
We've all said things this episode.
Permission ever three-way?
Thank you for asking me first.
It's segment, segment.
Granted.
As long as your mind shift is good about it.
First of all, I just, I keep forgetting to shout out, Denise Williams from Ohio.
Because I, like, I felt so bad because I said, I was like, I wasn't able to play pickleball.
It's like, no, I had this one evening that was like an amazing highlight where Denise had us over.
We played pickleball in her driveway.
We had a great time with her.
her husband Doug's, her nephew, I believe, Zach, had an amazing time, played pickle.
I was like, I had missed pickleball so bad and that was a great, like, chance to play it and
just like, shout out to Denise. She was great. They were all great.
Wanted to give her credit for that. And then my win of this week was going to Branson with
some friends. It was awesome on Saturday. That's right. For like the day. Yeah. And it was like
the park is fun. And it's like, you know, but it's like once you've been there a while, like the drive
there and back. It was just so fun. Just like, you know, being able to play music and joke around
the whole time. That was awesome. And then third thing, this zip tie on my microphone has been
bugging me. It's like it doesn't hold up anything. Oh, the famous zip tie. Permission to cut it.
Yes. As part of your three way. Okay. You can cut that, get that off of there. As the third.
Cut the cord. Okay. There you. Nice, dude. Okay. That looks good. That looks way better. Thanks.
Yeah, dude, that had to be bugging people. That's got to feel so much better now. It just
feels like a weight's been lifted.
Yes, dude. Good.
People's OCD was probably going nuts and now like, thank you.
Finally.
He's like, thank goodness it wasn't a two-way.

Yeah.
Wouldn't have that.

Sorry to spring that up on you.
All right.

Bonus win.
Someone posted it in the Facebook group, and I get these a lot, but still for the reason,
this one looks promising that their alpha gal was treated by something, something sketchy in Tulsa.
Hey, I love Tulsa.
Yep.
I love being a little sketchy.
I might make a little road trip down to Tulsa.
So I screen shot it.
I'm going to keep in mind, I'd be hitting you up.
Okay.
Let's have a steak here in a few weeks.

No matter what.
We will test it with a steak together.
That is fun, though.
The future one of the week is maybe I'll get that fit.
fixed. I hope so, dude. Yeah, we'll see. I hope so. Just, just in general, it'd feel good to
the convenience would be nice. Just not have to worry about that. Yeah. Like, I don't eat red meat
as much as I eat white, but it just, anytime it comes up for me, I'm like, okay, yeah, sure.
Yeah, it's just easy. Breakfast would be a lot easier. Yeah, that's true. Having to order stuff.
And can you take off the bacon? Like, what are you insane? You don't want bacon bits on your salad?
Oh, I want them. Oh, I want them.
trust me. I want them. I want them.
Take them off. Some of those bacon bits have to be
non-bacon. Yeah, it's a little artificial.
Yeah. So go to those
places that just give you artificial crap.
Perfect.
Artificial mind set, shift.
I got a comment of the week from Carter Yeager.
Maybe Yeager.

America's best clean podcast. We're not trying to be the cleanest or the funniest, but the best

the jingle, but Jake might have taken the cake with that trumpet solo. Never seen a two-handed trumpet
played with so much personality. I forgot. I forgot I did that. Two-handed trumpet. I didn't. I need to look
back on it but that is funny if you like well there's three buttons and I only have 10 fingers so
