Starting point is 00:00:00 Button is pressed. Time and press the button. So that means we're going to have a good Wednesday. Yeah, baby. That's it. I agree. This is magnetic on here, and it's kind of fun. A little magazine.
Starting point is 00:00:11 Show the audience. All right. Had an extra screw in the old, you know, had a screw loose. Okay. You guys can imagine it. Now I can't even reach it, Dave.
Starting point is 00:00:23 Thanks a lot. Did not sell us on the magnet. Yeah. I don't even know if you know if I believe you. I don't know if you know what magnet means. I don't think it's stuck at all. Oh, yeah. Well, we can rest on a flat surface?
Starting point is 00:00:36 That's crazy. Okay, Jake. Okay, Jake. How am I doing this? How am I doing this? Got a little hair on there. Dang, that's really cool. Dang, dude.
Starting point is 00:00:48 That's sick. Why even record a podcast? We can just do this, bro. Watch this. It's going to flip up. Remember tech deck? Um, yeah, I think people still, like, are into them. Like, they have competitions now. Of course they do. Yeah, like, scrolled and then, you know, yeah, I've seen some, like, finger, fingerboarding or whatever it's called.
Starting point is 00:01:10 Ever heard of it, Timon? Oh, yeah. I used to have some. I was no good. Fan art? No. I was no good. I probably, is it like, draw them, but. You think there's people out there that are like, whoa. Yeah. This guy's, I think they're absolutely people that are, like, good at tech decks. They can do, like, all the tricks that I feel like, they can do all the tricks Tony Hawk can do, but just with their fingers. Subsequent question, is there anybody that's impressed by those people?
Starting point is 00:01:35 Genuine. Have you watched people do this and be like, dang, I wish I could do that? I don't know if, I think what I've seen, I feel like I've come across a few, like, golden videos of people that are like just insane at them. Like, wow, that's impressive. Yeah. Yeah, I'd be impressed.
Starting point is 00:01:48 Okay. Yeah, I think us watching a tech, deck video is like most people watching a pickleball match. Like, these are the pros? Hit it hard. What are you doing? It's not that hard. like standing there the whole time. Any one of us could do that. Yeah. Yeah. So I feel for the
Starting point is 00:02:02 tech, tech people. I just thought of tech deck a little bit with this thing. I was going to like flip it up from its being down. Yeah, we'll get the tech tech people on there. I bet they'll have some free time on their hands. Maybe. Get them on here. Between tournaments. Um, Timon, what'd you have? Go ahead, time. Drinking this, uh, no, no, no, no. They're not supposed drinking this cranberry drink it makes your roosters has fall flavors
Starting point is 00:02:28 well that's what's in here is it yeah it's just like a can of head laying around good just like an aluminum can that I fill up from time of time
Starting point is 00:02:36 with coffee yeah you guys want microplastics so he just fills up aluminum cans he finds yeah dude you got something
Starting point is 00:02:42 about aluminum cans yeah there's like microplastics inside of them did you know this even in the metal yes I mean aluminum
Starting point is 00:02:49 is probably not good for you it's like lined with plastic I watch some video, what's that guy's name? There's some super natural, super natural guy. The other grass ties in. Some guy that's like really into ghosts and that time of year, Halloween. And he like boils down the, or somehow like extracts the plastic from the can and it just looks like silicone, like rubber.
Starting point is 00:03:16 It's everywhere, man. You think you're, you think you're safe with your. By putting coffee. I didn't think I was safe. Nice try. Nice try. Nice try. 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.
Starting point is 00:03:35 So come along. Let's have some fun and go ahead. Get on your feet because it's a ghost from a podcast. Oh, my morning. Everybody's morning. We're taking around. Ghost on a podcast. Speaking of, uh, human health on correct opinions we have the sponsor that's like a kind of a blood work you know
Starting point is 00:03:58 biomarker or whatever thing and so i went and finally did it you know because they test like all these biomarkers at once in labs whatever so i go in this was like this week this was a couple days post cupping i don't know if that relates or not but anyway they said like you need to fast leading up to it and in the morning of drink a liter of water coming into this okay seems like a lot and they start taking blood out of my arm more blood more blood she takes 12 vials out of one arm and then she goes for a 13th and there's like a needle in my arm and she's like poof we ran out of blood what do you mean look out so she's like make a fist so it's like it's like my fault I'm like squeezing harder I'm like sorry let me try this fresh out and I'm watching the
Starting point is 00:04:51 two, but she's not filling with blood. She's got a needle in my arm, which is not filling with blood. I'm like, hand over my chest, my heart's beating me out. Yeah, hearing about this. Where did it go? You're like, make a fist.
Starting point is 00:05:03 You're like, don't, Jake, stay with me. How do you know, Garrett Gibson? Yeah. That was somebody else. Sorry. Jake. Jake, we have one more vial, Jake. I'm fine.
Starting point is 00:05:18 Everything is fine. So I'm just watching her not be able to get anything out of my left arm. Struggling. And so she's like, all right, we'll try the right arm. So we go to the right arm. More vials out of there.
Starting point is 00:05:27 I had blood in my right arm because it's not my left arm. So it was all good. Wow. I don't know how that works, though. It's like I did what I was told. I'd take a liter of water. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:36 That's got to count for something. It counts for a liter. A liter of water and that's got to go into the blood. It's one for one. Yeah. However many water, like it's like, hey, water turn to blood. How much blood can you donate today?
Starting point is 00:05:46 Well, I had two gallons of water. Okay, it's two gallons. Pump, pump, pump, pump, pump, make a fist for me. Yeah. But yeah, that was odd. I didn't, I guess I haven't looked up. I haven't Googled it.
Starting point is 00:05:57 I was just like, I guess that's just something can happen. You just run out of blood in one arm. You just move on to the other. So is that like, there's like different resort. Like if the right arm's not good. All right, let's go leg, leg, yeah, make a fist with your foot. All right, we're going to go straight belly button on this one, okay? Make a fist with your neck.
Starting point is 00:06:15 Yeah, I don't know where. If this arm ran out, I don't know where they go next. I don't know how close I was to being out of blood But 14 vials It felt like a lot When she's like carrying it with two arms Do you need help getting that to the fridge Or wherever it goes?
Starting point is 00:06:29 Don't drop them, please. It seems like a lot What percentage of your energy did you feel after that? I feel like that would take a hit of a toll Yeah, I did I think probably from not eating And then losing blood It felt like a little bit of like
Starting point is 00:06:43 I'm going to walk to my car And I'm going to like Not drive away immediately In case I like faint or something something, but yeah. You're not taking too high of steps. You're kind of shuffing on the ground as you go back. You're not taking your usual like high knees style steps that you usually
Starting point is 00:06:57 do. Normally when I leave a Quest Labs, oh, I'm excited. I'm marching through the parking lot. Good to see you guys. Yeah, it was kind of a reverse moon walk. Sorry about having to go for the right arm. Sorry, I ran out. I know I got to make a stronger fist. No, but I was just
Starting point is 00:07:13 so hungry. That was the main thing. I was like, I never felt super lightheaded or dizzy, but I was like, man, fasting sucks. Would they make, how long for the fast? It was, you know, it was like, make sure you fast eight hours before, which was not a huge deal because I slept before,
Starting point is 00:07:26 but I think Rachel and I woke up early, did a little quiet time, you know, whatever. And then my appointment wasn't until 9.30. So I normally eat by now. And then losing the blood, ready for some lunch. I think people really hate on sleeping in, but I think it's a great weight loss technique
Starting point is 00:07:41 because if you sleep until 11, hard to eat. You just intermittent fasted, baby. Yeah. Get up. Take a, take a, take a, long shower, you know, poop a little. You know, all of a sudden, it's noon. Yeah, you're not eating during any of those things. Sleep, shower, poo. No, not. At least I'm not. Um, so. So, uh, I remember
Starting point is 00:08:03 back in the day, first time I ever gave blood was in high school. And man, they got us good with the, if you give blood, you get free Chipotle. They had Chipotle burritos ready for you when you're done. And I mean, to this day, but back then especially, it was like free Chipotle felt like you won the lottery. Yeah. Especially if it's at school. I can eat Chipotle while I'm at school. It was naughty.
Starting point is 00:08:27 It was unbelievable. My first time trying, though, it was right after I went to weights. And so I was like all sweaty or, you know, like, and they're like, I don't think you're, you're ready for this. And so I got out of it, but I got Chipotle. Because it was like, you were there to try. You wanted to, your heart was in the right place. But yeah, it was for the friggin' chicken burritos.
Starting point is 00:08:48 The stomach was in the right place. That's kind of funny. Yeah. I forgot. I wrote this on too. When I was in my little laboratory, it's very, you know, open air. You can hear a lot of stuff. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:59 The stall next to me. I don't know what led up to this, but the guy said, my third ex-wife took everything, so I had to move back to Casey. Oh, wow. I just thought I'd write that down and share that with everyone. He's a friendly, open guy. Third wife, I don't think I know anybody personally. that has had that many wives.
Starting point is 00:09:18 I'm sure I could think of somebody in my life that I've met, but I... But not like... I don't think so. Yeah, I wonder what it's like, as far as just like, one, just dating in general, if you're in your 50s and up, you know, I'm sure that's tough.
Starting point is 00:09:33 And two, if it's like, hey, been divorced twice, you got to be thinking, oh, boy, that seems to be a pattern. Yeah, it sounds like he's now three times. Yeah, it's gonna be tough to get the fourth. But people do it. People do it, man.
Starting point is 00:09:48 Neighbors behind us, they got, she's got a new, new boy toy. I have some things to talk about your neighbor. I'm glad you brought that up. Okay. That's all I have to say about the, oh, okay. No, that's all I really have to say about this guy. And he's, and he smokes cigarettes. And so everyone's wild, smell some cigs, which is not the best smell at 5.30 p.m.
Starting point is 00:10:06 on a nice October day. Do you like that time? Do cigarettes make you think of anything? They bring you back anywhere? Yes, a few different things. Certain cigarettes make me think of Spain. because everyone smokes in Europe. Make a text of the cigarette.
Starting point is 00:10:20 I don't like everyone's just bore at. And also casinos. I think the cigarette smoke is like so, you walk into a casino. They have like carpet that just like has cigarettes. You stomp on it, smoke will come up. Yeah. It's sponsored by Marlboro.
Starting point is 00:10:37 Like, yeah. I, sorry, one of those smells that I can't, I can't picture the smell right now. Like, I can't think of how, I can't smell how it smells, but I recognize it. immediately. Like, I don't know. Oh, interesting. I think there's some smells like that where it's like,
Starting point is 00:10:49 once I smell a cigarette, I'm like, that's cigarette smoke, but I can't think of it. I can't picture it with your nose. But there was like an old lady that we would go visit, like our church would go sing Christmas carols, her house was always very cigarette smelling. Yeah. That was great. Joy to the world was my favorite. You have a great low register.
Starting point is 00:11:10 Wow, eight kids, you have your heads full. You guys don't like each other. at all.

Starting point is 00:11:40 Tariffs. Anyway, what else do you mean? What was I saying? Cigarette smoke. Oh, I think my first time ever smelling cigarettes was in Las Vegas. And so to this day, 34 years old, if I smell secondhand smoke, I'm, like, transported to Vegas. Yeah. Back in the day, they used to have smoking and non-smoking in restaurants.
Starting point is 00:12:01 Oh, yeah. I remember going to, yeah, Waffle House with my grandpa. Yeah. Get a little smoky in there. Really? Waffle House, yeah? Springfield. Wild. Applebee is always the one of my smoking or not?
Starting point is 00:12:13 Yeah. And it was always like, there's a lot more seats over in smoking. How bad could it be? We're in the same room. We're going to wait for 45 minutes. Like, it wasn't like some walled off area. It was just one portion of the Applebee's. Yeah, it's true.
Starting point is 00:12:27 Hotels are still kind of doing that occasionally. Really? I think that's kind of out. Oh, yeah, there's like a smoke. This is a non-smoking room. Yeah. I think they all should be. They should be.
Starting point is 00:12:36 These days. Sometimes, you know, bloke's got a to poke. Same with like, yeah, you go to sports, like, a game. it's like there's like little areas like a little patio yeah there are right where was I recently for the degenerates out there where was I where it's like when you walk in you see the smoking section I remember thinking you can't hold it yeah I assume it's like urine where it's like you can't go a couple hours right if you hold it it's actually you know better for you when you get older yeah and then you got people vaping everywhere and it feels like that's just like no problem
Starting point is 00:13:10 that's okay you can vape but it's like that should be just as bad I think it is It smokes fruity and fun. It's very fun. It just adds to the ambiance. Yeah. I'm not really familiar with vape smoke. I know. We're pretty fortunate people.
Starting point is 00:13:24 We don't know that many people who have had five wives and we don't smell that much smoke. That's us. That's us. I don't know that much about it. I feel like at casinos is where I've smelled it the most. And every once in a while, it's like, I might lean into that next time. That guy blows it out. Was that mango?
Starting point is 00:13:40 Yeah. Cinnamon. Oh, French. Vanilla bean. Okay, so it has a little cinnamon, like, hint in there. Okay, very nice. There's been a couple times now where I've been, like, losing to a guy in pickleball, he calls a timeout in vapes.
Starting point is 00:13:53 I'm like, God, you can't beat the vape guy. Really? I'm getting cupped. I'm doing everything I can't take care of my body. He's vaping. Dang it. Yeah, that is one of those, like, tough times where, like, there's certain things where it's like, I can't lose that that guy.
Starting point is 00:14:09 Yeah. Like, that guy, that guy has a cane. Like, that guy, that guy. whatever, like, what else would do this guy? Is that guy? He had a monocle. He's in jeans.
Starting point is 00:14:23 Yeah, he's in jeans. Any kind of like non-traditional. He's in a button-up shirt. Yeah. You can't lose to that guy. He's wearing batting gloves. You don't want to lose anyone to pickleball wearing gloves. You see that every now and then.
Starting point is 00:14:36 Double? Double would be the next level. I guess not double. But yeah, they're a paddle hand. Yeah, they's got like a Franklin batting glove. Really? Yeah. Like a golf glove?
Starting point is 00:14:46 I guess. I don't know what. I don't know what. Yeah. It's not enough resistance from the ball. Like it doesn't feel like it's like, it's like, we're grabbing cushion. Yeah. We're hitting a plastic thing, you know.
Starting point is 00:14:56 It's not hard. It's never a bad time, but sometimes are the best times. Am I right? Talking about high school senior year. I'm talking about high school senior year.

Starting point is 00:17:18 we played in this tournament Friday, I put chicken pickle, and it's a best of three. We win the first one. We lose the second one. I realize I haven't had any water yet. Oh, it's because my water's inside. All right, guys, real quick, sorry,
Starting point is 00:17:31 we were playing on the outdoor courts. I'm going to run in and get my water and come back out. And I go inside of this guy pulls me aside, and he just showers me in the, most beautiful, loving, like, words of affirmation ever. He's like, Jake, I wanted to snag you today, man. It just, like, goes on and on and just says all
Starting point is 00:17:48 this, like, really nice stuff. Did you know this guy? We were, like, acquaintances. Yeah. Yeah. Nice guy. And just said some nice stuff about stuff that's honestly not that crazy, but just like stuff. He was just like, people see everything you do on camera. And he had heard some personal stories of autographs, we'd give him away, or paddles we'd given kids or games we'd played with fans, stuff like that. Yeah. He's really, really nice about it. got back out to the courts, and I was kind of like, what's this all about? Winning, losing.
Starting point is 00:18:18 Do we really need to win this third game? And? Got demolished. 11 to 1. Dude, that guy was a plant. That guy was a plant. Like, your teammates or your opponents were like, hey, we'll give you 20 bucks to just let this guy's guard down.
Starting point is 00:18:34 I mean, he, like, hugged me when he saw me, gave me a lot of comments, hugged me again. It's like a really nice moment. And they had to come back out and focus up, and I couldn't, I didn't have it. Did you autograph the paddles for the people that you lost to 11 to 1? It's like, let's pay it forward. Keep doing this. That's great.
Starting point is 00:18:50 But yeah, I told Timon and Isaac that afterwards. I've got to be honest, that one's probably on me. He really softened me up in there. I had no competitive edge anymore. How do people keep the competitive edge and be nice? Like, I don't think there's a- I can't be one or the other. Me neither.
Starting point is 00:19:04 I can't be both. Like sometimes like you watch NFL games and at the end of it, they just dapp each other up and it's like such a good time and even the guy that's losing is like laughing with his college teammate on the other team and I'm like I would be so mad either that or I wouldn't be good enough to be there because I wouldn't be intense enough like yeah I don't have the mental toughness to how do you compartmentalize that yeah but okay so you're you need to find your edge back it's like man what's the point of all this autographs pictures with kids what is this does this matter we won the first game that's our point yeah that's what's important yeah I've lost
Starting point is 00:19:39 111, pretty quick. Was it a 5-0? Yeah, it was. Okay. Bummer. But it was okay. It was fun. Time was there.
Starting point is 00:19:46 Yeah. Scott was there. Isaac was there. Neighbors. So this Tuesday night, Rachel and I went to something. A listener of ours, Sharon, Inslee,
Starting point is 00:19:58 tragically lost her son in a car accident a while back. They are putting on, they put on this like fundraiser, this bingo night for scholarship. They were trying to raise money for their son in their son's name. Anyway, she asked to borrow some Friday paddles to give away, so
Starting point is 00:20:15 had her come over to the house and anyway, gave her some paddles and I was like, all right, we're going to come, we're going to be there. And throughout the night about every like 15 minutes, I feel like another like middle-aged woman would come up and like, I'm a ghosty as well. And so all these women kept coming up. I met so many women. Sandy, Angie, and Lisa,
Starting point is 00:20:36 the ones I can remember. Oh, one aspect of this, Rachel and I get her own little table. So I'm like, sweet, nice high school girl comes up and is like, can I sit with you guys? Like, yeah, of course. Turns out she's a senior in high school, homeschooled. And it was just like, I didn't even know Will, but I just like I heard about this and just wanted to come support. Wow. Nice as ever.
Starting point is 00:20:55 And I was like, how do I like work into this? I know a lot of 18 year old at homeschool guys. Yeah. Are you more of like a perm hair or like a straight hair? Out though? Yeah. Yeah. Branow.
Starting point is 00:21:10 Yeah. Are you more of a Friedrich fan or a, what was, what was Oliver's? Oh, Ralph. Rolf. Rolf. You more a Friedrich guy or a Rolf guy? I didn't go down that path. But I thought it.
Starting point is 00:21:21 I thought it. Kind of, kind of a little, kind of a little pepper. Kind of a little pepper. Can I just pepper some stuff in here? Just a quick. Permission to pepper granted. We're going to divide this into three 10 second ads timing, okay? This is going to be the first one.
Starting point is 00:21:36 All right. All right. Healing Waters International. We're starting to fund. for him. So peppered healing waters.org. Yeah, had a nice night with a homeschool girl, Addy. That's awesome. But no, yeah, so it was really great night. Who doesn't love bingo? I love the dabbers. Yeah, I definitely do. Yeah, it's fun. At the end of the night, our girl comes up, a woman comes up to me, and she's like, hey, so I also, I don't really listen to the podcast, but I listen to one
Starting point is 00:22:01 part of it. And so Sharon, the woman I know, she's like, oh yeah, this is the girl when you were talking about the vetty's you should tell them right that i'm nervous about whatever this okay so yeah this so my first impression was like i don't understand what she's saying the vetti i'm thinking because this this is a unique experience but if you ever had this happen where like someone comes up to you and they think you said something but it's like a story i told like this will occasionally happen where like people are like i can't tell your voices apart i was like how i know yeah people will come up to me and they'll they'll tell me something that trace said or a video that Tray made or something that you said. And so I was like, I feel like we're
Starting point is 00:22:40 going down that territory where she's like, you were talking about this and she had a story about us. I'm like, oh, okay, okay. And I was like, wait, sorry, what again? And then I started this time she says, Betty, like, I still can't think of a story I would have said recently about Betty. Turns out it was Fetty. I was like, oh, it's like these childhood friends of mine. This story I talked to all the pie. Oh, you know them. Yes, Jason's my brother. Okay. So we're connecting all this. Crazy. And then she's like, who's this? This is my wife, free from Iowa. Oh my gosh, I went to Wartberg College. That's in Waverly, where we got married. Rachel's like, my dad and my aunt both went to Warburg. She's like, what's your aunt's name?
Starting point is 00:23:15 She's like, Lisa Coop, she's like, look at my phone. She had texted Rachel's aunt that day. She had been put in a group text with her that day. It was like the girls on her hall from, you know, sophomore year, Wartberg College. We're like, we should get together. It's on the same day as Bingo night. She gets thrown in a group chat where it's like, yeah, Lisa, you know. They call it Coopie, but, you know, Schmitz is now in this group chat, so then we're sending them selfies. So they were doing, we're like, wow, that's crazy. My childhood neighbors.
Starting point is 00:23:44 Rachel's aunt. And on top of that, she goes, oh, wait. I'm sorry, this is a different girl who came up to us than this other girl was like, by the way, your cohort, his neighbor is my sister-in-law. I was like, oh, boy. Angie. This is Andy. Yes.
Starting point is 00:24:00 Okay. Yeah. Angie's a character. Angie's so fun. Firecracker. Go ahead. well, I got nervous. I was like, well, this past week,
Starting point is 00:24:08 we spent about 10 minutes talking about one of his neighbors. I was like, dog. She's like, yeah. I was like, yeah. Scary dog. Rachel's like, Bruno. It's like, it's not named Bruno.
Starting point is 00:24:19 Marco. Close. It's all nice. She's like, I don't know. Labradoodle? I was like, who, nope. We're good. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:30 No, big scary. Big scary dog. Not a Labradoodle. So it turns out it's your other neighbor. Yes. And does Angie tell you? Price is avoided. Angie lives like, I could see Angie's house from here. Yeah, it's like the one that, I mean, how many times have Rachel and I walked or ran by that house?
Starting point is 00:24:44 Yeah. Real close. I think she's, I'm almost positive. She's the one who's the neighbors won the lottery and they like gave her that, like sold her that house. Remember I told this? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Sharon was kind of trying to tell me this too. Yeah, okay. Yeah. I have the details, hazy probably. But I was scared for you.
Starting point is 00:25:00 Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. I know Brad's neighbors. We're related. I'm like, oh, boy. Oh, yeah. No. But it's the other one. It's the lawn mower. It's long mowing people.
Starting point is 00:25:11 Yeah. Yeah. The kid who mows his lawn is so too deep. Like cuts off. I mean, he lets it grow till it's, you know, up to his knees, knee high by the 4th July and then tries to cut all off at once. With a push mower. It goes two feet out of time before it just clogs.
Starting point is 00:25:29 Yeah. Angie would appreciate all this, though. I think she would have, that's great, dude. She is hilarious. Yeah, she has so much energy. Yes. It was great. But yeah, it was just a really fun night, great family.
Starting point is 00:25:43 But yeah, I was nervous briefly. Some fun, can we kink and dinks? Yeah. Nervous about the neighbor thing. And to be fair, like my next door neighbor, who you would be more nervous. Like, I still think she would, like, she would say nice. I hope she would say nice things about me overall. Good.
Starting point is 00:25:56 Hopefully. If not, I think it's a little bit irrational. I think we have, like, a good relationship still. It's just, we've had a few, a few times where it's like, you don't like, you don't like that I do that. that but surely she thinks we're good neighbors we mow our lawn we keep it you mow your lawn clean enough yeah we respect the time most of the time so compared to other neighbors out there there's like neighbors across the street from us that have like a weird like four plaques or something yeah that's not good
Starting point is 00:26:23 it's it's like it's like it's like bad it like needs to get like torn down yeah i don't know what's going on in there i don't want to know me neither dude there was one time that somebody accidentally sent us We got mail that was going to that address And I was like nervous to like Go up to it. Oh, go give it to him. I mean, obviously it's not like the ghetto But it's it's bad for our area.
Starting point is 00:26:44 Yeah. And our area is not that nice. Yeah. So anyway, that's pretty funny. Did you get any bingoes? No, Rachel did. Richard had a miraculous bingo, you know, they had probably called six numbers
Starting point is 00:26:55 And she had five of the six. Whoa. So she was like nervous to even say it. You know, because it's like, I happen so fast people were going to get mad. So she's like, uh, bingo.
Starting point is 00:27:05 If you're like, oh, and they're like mad because they lost their shot. So, um, yeah, what's,
Starting point is 00:27:10 what's more fun? Like the groans then or the groans where it's like, this bingo game's been going on for a long time. And still no one has it. And those groans are because everyone has four in a row. Yes. Oh. Oh,
Starting point is 00:27:21 what a way. Oh, 32. I needed 33. And then finally somebody gets it. Or, or when like seven people get it at once. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:30 I'm going to split a paddle somehow. Cut it up to honeycomb course Anyway That's pretty fun Yeah it was fun night So have a chicken pickle It's good time That's cool
Starting point is 00:27:40 Time what do you got As far as I know Literally nothing All right man You can speak on this I wrote this down Sorry that episode 479 Is not on Spotify
Starting point is 00:27:52 What a mystery What's going on Jake We've had so much copyrighted songs In our episodes for years No problems Timing as far as I know this was even supposed to be a non-copyrighted song
Starting point is 00:28:05 the one that finally broke the camel's back the song that snapped the camel's ears saddle saddle off um yeah I don't know so hopefully it's not like a new trend it was one of the like being removed AI songs you did to like copyrightry jazz song it was the moment we were trying to like yeah it was like a disco theme like oh yeah it was like a disco theme like oh yeah That's what it was. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:32 And it wasn't even, yeah, it's like, why not? Like, I get it if it's like a classic song, everyone knows, but this was like, no. I don't know. I disputed it, but it has not been back up yet, so I don't know. The whole episode had to be taken down. Like, you couldn't even be like, well, it's just not, yeah, let's not do, let's not make money off this one or something. Like, let's not monetize it.
Starting point is 00:28:50 Yeah, exactly. Yeah, YouTube's in a lot better spot than Spotify. A lot more workarounds, but if that happens to the future, YouTube will always be available. Unless you're in China. really unless you try to make a website um don't have much more on my notes here but i did have this it's adjacent to a win in the week but it's it's separate for me home depot this is the season of home depot where it's like don't take your kids to home depot because it's like terrifyingly scary Halloween stuff and for whatever reason this year like october 9th they started putting out
Starting point is 00:29:29 Christmas stuff. They took away Halloween. Oh. And I'm very hopeful that it's like maybe Christmas is getting so insanely commercialized and maybe Halloween's trending down that's like everyone that went a Halloween stuff has got it. And now it's like Christmas.
Starting point is 00:29:45 Yeah, it's like normally I would not like the early October Christmas decor, but if it's taking over big skeleton. Dude, not even skeleton. Like I'm talking like seven foot tall grim reapers that move and like talk and stuff like. Yeah. Like rabid beavers and stuff we don't need that there's got they got sway too many one rabid beaver fair but i don't yeah animatronic not a whole colony of the foam the life like foam is too much like literally i if i take
Starting point is 00:30:12 my kids at home depot in october it's like i got to go all the way around the perimeter of the store to get away from them so that's a that was big i'm i'm very excited i hope that just in general i've talked about my disdain for halloween decor i think it's silly so except for i saw an inflatable blueie Halloween lawn thing. It was cute. Yeah. I approved that one. So that's it.
Starting point is 00:30:36 There's something about, and you go ahead. Nothing. I saw my friend Peter on a walk with his daughters to Lowe's the other day to go look at the inflatable Christmas decoration.
Starting point is 00:30:47 So once again, it's bringing dads close to their daughters. Yes, it is. They wouldn't do that if it was the Halloween stuff, I bet. They were not. Oh, baby. Let's just,
Starting point is 00:30:58 can we just do that, for all our promos? Can we just say, like, hey, we talked about cozy Earth and how cozy it is. But when you want to collab on top of that, when you want to add coziness to your cozy earth,
Starting point is 00:31:09 you then go next level with it with a nice steaming cup of Joe. A nice warm cup of coffee. You're talking about mainstream roasters. I'm talking about mainstream roasters. That's exactly right. It is, I mean, it adds to the coes. 100% of it does.
Starting point is 00:31:22 You came in here today, and I said, that smells amazing. Get it for the vibes. Get it for the smells. Yeah, I think I am, I think I've turned a corner as far as coffee goes. I think I'm strictly black coffee. Like I think, good for you.
Starting point is 00:31:36 The feeling I have was sugary, creamy coffee, like does not give me enough satisfaction for how many calories I'm consuming while having. Yeah, yeah. Because black coffee is really good if you get the right kind of beans. That's a great tradeoff. Yes, it is. Good flavor, good taste. And you feel, yeah, you just feel good when you have good beans, it's black coffee. So Main Street Roasters has those beans.
Starting point is 00:31:59 Good beans. Good beans, Main Street. I've been up since 6 o'clock this morning. Not crazy. I'm not trying to brag, but it's been an early morning for me. It needs a coffee. Main Street right away. No problem.

Starting point is 00:33:16 Yeah, alopecia. Yes. Vizio sounds pretty dope. I always used to think, this one's like, I always used to think Lucifer, if it wasn't the Gull's name.
Starting point is 00:33:25 It would be a cool name. Yeah, I think some of, Tray do that. Lucy. You. Good job, Jake. Oh, nice. Really original there, Tyman. I didn't know that. I think I said that when I was like seven. I got it from you. Home videos. Yeah. Maybe names that aren't. That's a good one. My first one's not that exciting. Okay. But logos. We've written that one. Oh, that's good. Just the best of logos. Because there's a lot out there. I mean, one one. Nike. that's a good logo got to be uh bottom bottom we just Starbucks we just do all
Starting point is 00:34:03 this more oh really yeah Starbucks you hate it it's uh yeah I don't think it's a good logo I think if they weren't Starbucks you would you could not start a company with that logo now mm that's fair that's a that's a fair is that is that what constitutes a good logo though I don't know up to the voters I think I like it I've also have you seen like the conspiracies like that's like some hidden meaning devil Halloween is it yeah probably all right my first one I think this would be fun McDonald's yeah McDonald's would be good for baby names yeah McMuffin yeah McMuffin so um my first one would be cute I've done I actually
Starting point is 00:34:49 don't hate frappy that's I had to say it's I meant it that's sweet that is sweet yeah food item like fast food items that would be good baby daves we went on a uh chalupa it'd be like for a loop it'd be like for a chubby like like little mexican boy a little cholo bring back cholo cholo are our Hispanic people using the word cholo still i have no idea that was a fun lean like a cholo ever heard that song in time ever put it on your list no let it let it let it go just Josiah Queen, Nathan, what's his name? Gladwell.
Starting point is 00:35:28 Cooley. Jacob Collier, Collier. Coley. That's what I was thinking of. Nathan Coleyer. Nathan Coleyer. James Collier, Josiah Queen, a little lean like a cholo. Great.
Starting point is 00:35:40 Yeah, you'll love it. We were trying to decide the name for our next big Friday paddle last night in the group chat. So you're mainly just throwing around F words. And at one point, the Friday FRAPE did make the list. Brown. Not going to go with that. But hey, but you got to throw things out there to see. Start it out there.
Starting point is 00:35:54 Just to help stimulate the next big idea. I was like, this paddle is going to have a lot of foam in it. I think it should coincide with that. Fun idea, Scott, but not going to. That's a Scott. That's a Scott move. All right. My first one is going to be, I think it's going to be fun because obviously
Starting point is 00:36:11 Tyman is not there yet. Highlights of being married. The smores of things about being married. I think that'd be pretty fun. I think it'd be funny for Tyman to try to justify his answers a little bit. Yeah. And then my next one is, things you wish you could experience again for the first time.
Starting point is 00:36:28 Getting married. Yes. Honeymoon. Like, yeah, just. But also, maybe you got to think about your answers, because what if you don't experience them the same way, and then you don't love, like, I'm thinking, like, walking into Kauffman Stadium for the first time
Starting point is 00:36:44 and seeing that baseball field. But also, what if it's like, I've seen a lot of pretty things these days. You know, that I'm older. I'm not that into baseball anymore. Why did I choose a rainy day? Dang it. Anyway.
Starting point is 00:36:56 Nice. That's my idea. My next Schmores ideas for Schmores is going to be days of the year. Okay. I see about doing days of the week, but I thought that might be tough. So days of the year. Yeah. This could be, I'm thinking like Christmas or it could be just like first day of summer.
Starting point is 00:37:12 Oh, I think, yeah. You know, vague works too. Because like, yeah, first Sunday of football season. Yeah. Or just even like May 24th. Just straight up. Just like that's typically a pretty nice day. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:37:24 Okay. good days of the year yeah um we should do schmores of off-brand things oh like the best of the off-brands yeah like or maybe it's like i always grew up with the off-brand version of this but it's kind of it's kind of good yeah shasta cola yeah are you thinking of anything no okay no it's fine no yeah colas vote for me guys i sense i think a lot of those i think a lot of pop out there is just fine. Just fine. Like I never had a complaint about Shasta. I would say like over the counter drugs. Oh yeah. Off brand Mucinex. Anytime it's like compared to Mucinex DM. I was like gladly and I'll pay half the price. They're basically telling you that's what it is. Like we just
Starting point is 00:38:11 slapped a different label on it. And they literally are using the name brand in their label. Yeah. It's great. Yeah. And then I'll say smores of, uh, debatable how to say this word. I say Cran. of crayon color names. Oh, fun. Or crayon color names. Oh, yeah. I have to look at a fun list. Or crown color names.
Starting point is 00:38:28 Yeah, me too. Like cerulean, that's all I can remember. Robbins egg blue. Is that one? There's some good ones, though. Yeah. Brick red. Okay.
Starting point is 00:38:37 My next one is landmarks. Okay. I think of for the most part, like famous ones. Yeah, it could also just be like the Dollar General in New Hartford, and that's when I know to turn right. If you have anything like that. That's when you knew Rachel was the one. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:38:53 Every time I see that mile mark of 212. Good it. Okay, love, love that. Let's go, well, we're going to go vague on this one. I think smells was really fun. So what if we did sounds? Sounds. That's my third pick.
Starting point is 00:39:11 I like it. Yeah, that, that could be fun. The crack of the bat. My first thought. Squeak of the shoes. Not to squeak. Crack of the basket, though. Live, wooden bag.
Starting point is 00:39:22 Swish. Sweet, sweet, sweet sound of a swish. my dad would say. Yeah, those are all good. Just the roar of a crowd. Really, maybe it's sports sounds. That's the best sounds. I mean, the pop of a crowd,
Starting point is 00:39:33 like, if you're telling jokes, put that one in there. Dude, what about, yeah, we are just doing our, the THX when that came on when you would, at the movie theaters? Oh, I do want you talking about.
Starting point is 00:39:47 You know what I'm talking about? Was that in the theaters? Maybe I wish I could have experienced that. It was only on DVDs for me. It was so great. But I never heard that in the theater. That's fun. Electrifying.
Starting point is 00:39:59 Or like when you turn, this one, when you turn on your Mac, do. It's like a nice, like, harmonized. It's beautiful. Yeah, it's a great sound. All right. Seven hours of commercial free football.
Starting point is 00:40:12 That kind of sounds. Yeah, just Scott Hanson's voice. This is where you make or break a draft right here, guys. I'm trying to figure it out. I'm going to go for my last one. I think this is going to be fun because I think Jake would have some really funny answers and so what time. Most awkward place to have the giggles. Most awkward place to have the giggles.
Starting point is 00:40:32 That's good. Like funeral, of course. Cupping. Cupping, church. But, like, then you can get some funny ones out there. Yeah. I like it. My fourth one is spores of artificial fruity flavors.
Starting point is 00:40:50 Oh, okay. Good. Like, it doesn't matter if it's gum. if it's soda, if it's film a blank, like I lean towards grape. Yeah. I love fruit punch. Yeah. You know, when there's like 10 options.
Starting point is 00:41:00 Yeah. Do you have, let's compare, I like it as a fruit, but I don't like it as a flavor. I like it as a flavor. I don't like it as a fruit. You have anything like that? I think cherry as a fruit, it's fine, but cherry, like, drink. Yeah. Yeah, I think cherry is always probably the best.
Starting point is 00:41:23 Candy, like, best candy flavor, I feel like. Yeah, orange, love a good orange, but not orange candy. I would agree. Yeah. Same with, I like grape fruit a lot. The fruit, grape. Yeah. I don't like grape candy. Grape jolly ranchers, I'll, those are always in there still. Yeah. I would say, um, apple. Love the fruit. Don't care for like, like, honestly, you don't see apple flavored things that often. It's always sour green apple. Yeah. It's always like green. I like those, though. They're fine. They're not my first choice. What about coconut? I like coconut flavor. I don't think I would want to eat a coconut by itself.
Starting point is 00:41:58 That's good point. I don't hate it, but coconut. Yeah, wow. Good answer, Jake. Okay, my last one, Chipotle ingredients. Ooh. Just like the things you can select from. I think.
Starting point is 00:42:11 Okay, okay, okay. You got Chimmy Churry on the menu now. Huh, not to be missed. Look out. Man, they had some adobe ranch. You ever try that? Oh, I think I would like it, though. It's gone, so don't like it.
Starting point is 00:42:22 But it was unbelievably good. I didn't go to Chipotle much this summer. I don't know what got into me. Sounds like I missed a dobo ranch, though. It's too bad. It was awesome. It was just a little bit of a kick. Very good.
Starting point is 00:42:36 Sounds good. Good answers. Good, good s'mores, guys. Any, um, any, um, honorable mentions. I had boring ones. Musical artists. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:42:47 Okay. I mean, I'd enjoy it, but I feel like it wouldn't be that entertaining. shoe styles like types of shoes like heels sneakers
Starting point is 00:42:57 um slides slides okay loafers we're talking we need to yeah that's fun cleats
Starting point is 00:43:05 and then underrated candy underrated candy yeah that that one could get contentious because it's like hey Reese is not rages no
Starting point is 00:43:14 but it's not rages whoever has nutrageous you know Reese's I had websites, could be a fun one. Yeah, it's fun. It's pretty open-ended.
Starting point is 00:43:26 Catch phrases for yourself. Daddy's home, you know. Rooms in a house. Yeah. Could get kind of fun eventually. Talking guest bathroom, because that's where you, you know, can sit for a while. Yeah. You know, like, and you don't have to bother your wife.
Starting point is 00:43:45 Accomplishments, just in general. Yeah. Just a nice open-ended. That's crazy. that person hiked Mount Everest 85 times in a year. I like that one. Kind of fun one. Yeah, bold that one.
Starting point is 00:43:57 Okay. Italicized too or just? Just bold. All right. Thanks. Things a bad partner would do. Pretty open-ended. Could be wife, could be road trip partner, you know, take off your shoes during a road trip.
Starting point is 00:44:11 Group project partner. States. Jokes. Just straight up jokes. Could be kind of fun. Knock, knock. Yeah. I like that.
Starting point is 00:44:22 And then worst gifts to buy a man. Could be kind of a funny one. Things you can fit in your pocket. Kind of fun. Those are all I got. Nice. Those are all good. Yeah, thank you.
Starting point is 00:44:37 You got any more, Jigie? Sad list. No, I had just my four. Good thing no one took them. Yeah. I really like logos. Done four. Well, thanks, guys.
Starting point is 00:44:45 I'm a bold. Even if you guys don't pick Jake, so don't pick Jake. We're in bold. Those are good. Shmore is always fun. Oh, just a little bit more. Just a little bit more.
Starting point is 00:44:55 Oh, it must be that pepper time of the episode. We're going to be fundraising for healing waters coming up. It's going to be legendary. Get your hearts and minds and wallet ready. It's a worthy ministry, a worthy cause, support, and guess what? See if I got anything else I want to get off my chest. I went garage sailing this weekend. Had done that in a long time.
Starting point is 00:45:15 Okay. Rachel's out of town. You went solo garage sailing? I thought it would be fun to go just get some, like, crap. But something that Rachel would like. And, like, when she comes home, it's like, hey, I got you this for a garage sale. Whoa. Never mind.
Starting point is 00:45:29 I'm going to guess. I have a guess of what you might have got. You saw something out there? I saw one thing. Wow, it's going to be impressive if you get this. What is it? I'm pretty observing guy. A candle.
Starting point is 00:45:38 No. Good guess, though. Yeah, we have been lighting this old school candle. Yeah. You know, I don't know, Ernest Hemingway or something, writing by candle. Yeah, use your quill. I got her this like authentic
Starting point is 00:45:52 like depression glass jar Yeah what's the depression glass Just the type of crud that girls like Is that an era Like a depression era It seems a little too True to be good
Starting point is 00:46:04 Or it's just like a sad looking glass Like just frowns all over it Let me double check right now Because I want to make sure I get this right Yeah it's like glass it was made In the period of the Great Depression Yeah Cool
Starting point is 00:46:17 The guy who sold to me said, hey, we looked into this. We got it like, you know, whatever. We checked on it. This was made in the, you know, 1930s. So is this like, oh, great. Talk, let's go back. Talk to me about your decision to go garage selling by yourself, A, and B, did you drive around? Did you research it or did you just walk down the street and find some places in our inner neighborhood?
Starting point is 00:46:41 I think I was on my way back from something Saturday during the day to my house. Okay. And saw like, well, there's a lot of garage sales. going on today. Get home, settle in, whenever you eat a little lunch. And I'm trying to make some pickleball plans, which is one of those Saturdays where no one's texted me back. And I'm like, well, got a little time in my hands.
Starting point is 00:46:57 Why don't I venture off and go hit up some of these garage sales? Okay. That's kind of what led to it. Just a lazy Saturday. And it was like 77 degrees. It was perfect outside. Yeah. I did in sandals. I felt kind of just jank and redneck doing it. Yeah. Do you have cash?
Starting point is 00:47:13 Yeah. Bring the cash along. Uh-huh. Yeah, I felt good. So hit up a few of them most of them good luck trying to get rid of that stuff lots of clothes and stuff that was always that was always the worst it's like oh it's just clothes I mean just clearly getting rid of just like stuff that I mean that's what a garage sale is but I mean some of it was just like
Starting point is 00:47:33 broken like plates okay you know or like clothes with holes in it or like a floaty you know okay so Valder get off my high horse I don't know if this is me having more money than obviously I did as a kid or if this is me living in the 21st century, but I don't understand why you'd ever do a garage sale these days. Because best case scenario, what are you making?
Starting point is 00:47:57 And why wouldn't you just try to sell that on Facebook Marketplace if it's got enough value? You know what I mean? Yeah, kind of the same thought. As you're looking around and seeing the prices, like, all right, the highest item here is $5.5. Yeah. If I bought this whole store, it would be about $175.
Starting point is 00:48:14 dollars and maybe this is also the entrepreneurial aspect of me it's like and not in the sense of like oh you could make money doing other thing but like time is money and therefore like to spend a Saturday this took a long time to like set out all this stuff on your table and like decipher what you want to sell and I'm like I think yeah you're making 50 bucks this morning but I'm like I think you could probably try to sell something on Facebook marketplace for more money than somebody's willing to pay at your garage sale for it I love garage sales. Let me just say that. I think they're so fun. It's like an American thing.
Starting point is 00:48:46 Yeah. It's so awesome, the American. And so I'm sad, it's like one of those things where it's like, I miss the newspaper, but also why would you ever
Starting point is 00:48:53 buy a newspaper these days? Yeah, it felt weird. It's like, I haven't been to a garage town who knows how many years and my first time I went to it was like in their garage.
Starting point is 00:49:00 It was like just like that. I just parked on their street and walked into their garage. It feels a little wrong, but it's like, no, this is great. But yeah, I'm with you.
Starting point is 00:49:08 I thought all the same things is like, this doesn't seem like fiscally like the best use of like time and effort. It's like if you're going to do a garage sale, you need some big ticket items. If you have some big ticket items,
Starting point is 00:49:17 someone Facebook Marketplace. Right. Get them out in front of thousands of eyes rather than the one that's hopefully driving by. Exactly. Yeah. It truly Facebook Marketplace just made it an online garage sale 24-7. So I don't know.
Starting point is 00:49:32 It almost saddens me to say it out loud though because I don't want garage sales to die. Yeah. There's certain things that are just like so American. Yeah. I don't know. Do other countries do you think they're doing? doing garage sales?
Starting point is 00:49:44 Who else would? What would they call them? I don't want to hear Canada either. They're just America, but just the higher north. Like, I'm talking like, does Finland do garage sales? They might.
Starting point is 00:49:55 And make a sale. You want two for 50. Anyway. Garage sailing, like, when I knew, when I was like probably eight years old, when I knew that the next morning we were waking up pretty early
Starting point is 00:50:09 and going garage sailing, it was like one of the top, three most exciting nights yet of the entire year it was incredible it's being your s'mores of days of the year yeah oh totally like we wouldn't go very often it's like I think there's garage selling season it's like probably spring more spring and fall right I think and so it's like maybe once in a spring and once in a fall there's like a big garage selling day and it's like that's the best day of the year dude there were some signs around here that really got me they were like multi-family yeah neighborhood yeah I was like
Starting point is 00:50:41 And then maybe I got to him too late, or maybe they sold everything. I couldn't find them. I think maybe my mom would go on Craigslist or something, like to find the garage sales before. And like we kind of have a plan where we'd go. And I would just get just the most useless, like, just make the house more messy. But I was so excited. Secondhand toy that doesn't work. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:51:00 You guys are firing me up for some garage sales right now. Dude, I want to go again. And it does like hurt me as like a realistic dad to be like, what you just said. Like there's just more garbage that's in our house. Yeah. But I know my kids would love it. Oh, yeah. You find like a, it's kind of broken, but it's like a hot wheels track that like,
Starting point is 00:51:17 you can like launch the car. It's like it works a little bit. And it's so fun. Dude, shout out. We can put this at the top of the stairs. Yeah. My parents let me buy some stupid things growing up. Thank you, mom and dad for, or there was one time these like futon, like foldable futon chairs
Starting point is 00:51:32 were free. Like, we could use these down our basement. We got a foldable. They're like, okay, shove them in our back of our Camry. Let's do this thing. That's great. These days I would be like, no, we're not putting that in. All right, so we've done the cozy earth ad.
Starting point is 00:51:50 We've teased three different segments, right? We did the pepper of the healing waters. Yeah, we did mainstream roasters. Now we're doing mainstream roasters. And now we're going to figure out how to add and incorporate good ranges into all four of those. Is that what you said we should do? Coziness is great. But I need some protein.
Starting point is 00:52:04 Yes. I need to fill myself up. Right. And I want to support Americans while I do it. Right. And actually, I'm hungry for even a little bit more. Okay. So I'm going to subscribe to a box at good ranchers.com.
Starting point is 00:52:15 I'm going to get a free protein add-on for life. I'm also going to get a little money off. I'm also going to get expended shipping. That's right. Using the promo code, GRKC. Yes. Can I tell you a true story? This is a testimonial.
Starting point is 00:52:29 I was in. Who's just from the perspective of? A satisfied customer. Got it. A realized customer. This is a coming from perspective of, Oh, girl who lives in small town, Kansas, who knows good beef, who lives with a farmer. I can imagine it.
Starting point is 00:52:48 Okay. My sister, this weekend was like, hey, when I was in Kansas City visiting mom and dad, I tried good rancher's chicken. And I was always thinking, like, Jake and Brad, honestly, she was like, I think you guys were just like playing. I thought you guys were just selling the chicken. She's like, it is better. It truly is noticeably better than other chicken. What Rachel made last night was unbelievable. I think the chicken is to blame.
Starting point is 00:53:13 Yes, I think, it's like if you try it, I remember we had somebody in Gulf Shores say the same thing. Like, you guys are just good at selling it. It's like, yes, we are. Yeah, we're amazing in the world. We're like, please sponsor us forever. But also understand that we are sponsoring things out of the passion of how good it is. So it's good for you, good for your family.
Starting point is 00:53:33 It's noticeably better. Yeah. Your blood. All the things. I throw kidneys in there. So once again, we have a promo code. GRKC. It'll get you, it'll get you some discounts on some boxes. I don't care if you're going of chicken beef, poor, fish. It'll get you where you need to go. It'll get you there. So, once again,
Starting point is 00:53:49 it's good rancher.com. It's welcome to the table. It's Main Street. It's Main Street delivered. American meat delivered. Oh, dude, this is funny. You'll appreciate this. So I think I mentioned we did those evals for Upward. It was like tryout kind of things. And since I was a helping out with it. I was like a volunteer. Haddy got to go first, like, and not have to stand in line. But all the other kids, I get there at a certain time and, like, stand in line. And there's, I don't know, 200, 300 kids going through this thing per night. Like, it's a ton of kids. And so while they're in line, Sam, our friend, who's the children's pastor, want to do like a giveaway, like a raffle for something. Okay. It was one of those classic, like,
Starting point is 00:54:33 try to guess how many, I think it was like tiny little erasers are in this bucket. And whoever gets the closest to guessing it wins a prize. And I think the prize, I didn't see the picture of it, but how do you could see the picture, is this massive basketball beanbag chair, like one of those like big old, like, you know what I'm talking about? I had a baseball one. Yeah. And Hattie gets back, comes back into the gym. She's like, yeah, I just filled out the raffle, even though I didn't have to wait in line. I filled it out. I said 1,150 erasers. And Sam looks at me. He goes, did you really? and he's like, yes.
Starting point is 00:55:11 And he's like, that's insanely close. And so later on that night, I asked the woman doing it. And she said, it's 1,000, she said, so Hattie said, 1,150, the correct answer is 1,182. Whoa. The rain woman. And so, and I look at the, like, this bucket of erasers, I would have, as an adult, guessed 580. Like, I would have guessed so much less.
Starting point is 00:55:35 Huh. It's kind of crazy. She has a gift. But I'm like, if we get this beanbag chair, we literally can't fit it in our house. Like, I think it's that. It's like one of those like, imagine the biggest beanbag. According to Haddy in the picture, she saw. She's like, it's like, it's huge.
Starting point is 00:55:52 It's like, would it fit in our basement? She's like, maybe. Okay. It's an outdoor beanbag chair, then. The beanbag chair represents a future. Maybe. Of Haddy guessing these things right. Well, apparently they're learning about estimate.
Starting point is 00:56:07 it's estimating in homeschool. So Catherine, of course, uses it as a learning opportunity. Yeah. It is kind of interesting like how good Hattie is at math compared to other subjects.
Starting point is 00:56:19 I think she's smart, but like it seems like she naturally figures out math a little bit better. That's fun. Yeah. I somewhat had my own rain man moment
Starting point is 00:56:29 this weekend as well, but I stopped short a little bit. Well, two kind of funny things happened at Chipotle, Jimmy Cherry. One, I get to the counter and the guy ready
Starting point is 00:56:39 to make my brito where yeah I tell him I want a brito he's like okay and then he goes for here to go and I was like that's interesting
Starting point is 00:56:46 it's like it doesn't matter what are you going to do differently yeah you get my head in the foil either way but I was like hmm
Starting point is 00:56:52 to go he's like great and then puts brown rice on my brito and I was like huh so I heard that pretty wrong
Starting point is 00:57:00 oh I think that's what happened white I don't know how wider brown rice I heard for here to go. I'm like, gosh, I'm a danger to be in public. I need
Starting point is 00:57:12 a, I need Rachel with me. But then he took you saying to go as okay, brown rice. It's on him too. I think he glitched. I'm blaming him. I'm blaming him. Because they do usually ask, if you get a bowl, they always say for here to go. Gotcha. So I think you said burrito.
Starting point is 00:57:29 And so he didn't have to ask for here to go. So he glitched. And he's like, uh, uh, and just threw it on that. Just threw rice down. Yeah. So maybe that is what happened. I was blaming myself. But yeah, I don't know. Those are the facts.
Starting point is 00:57:40 He said for you to go. I said to go. He put brown rice in my brain. I was like, all right. And I'll do some chicken. To go in, or rice in Spanish, it's aros. Oros. Maybe he said, what kind of aros?
Starting point is 00:57:53 You're like, to go. Yeah. Okay. He's like, all right. Kind of dodged the answer. I'll just give him brown rice. I was punished him with some brown rice then if he's not going to answer. But then the other part, I wanted to use the restroom.
Starting point is 00:58:05 And so I go over there. and there's like this whole keypad there to get in. And, but I see that there's four numbers that are like smudged out. It reminded me of National Treasure where they do the things and it's like, all right. He's trying to figure it out. He's like, Valley Forge. It's Valley Forge. Press the E&L twice.
Starting point is 00:58:25 I was like doing that where it's like, oh, 1, 8, 4, and 9 are all smudged. Great. It's got to be one of these. So I just did different combinations and then eventually it got it. 1849. I was like, I'm in. that would be kind of electric. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:58:39 It's like I don't need you. Yeah. That's not as crazy as the 1150 guess, but I still felt kind of cool. I figured this out of my own. Well, that's just you being smart. Like that's you being observant and being like, seeing smudges. Yeah, seeing smudges. Yeah, seen smudges.
Starting point is 00:58:52 Yeah. So, like, part of me is like, of course I wanted to win this beanbag chair. Yeah. But also. You have to encourage this behavior. Yeah. I feel like if we would have won, they would have told us by now. So maybe somebody guessed 1,200, which would have been.
Starting point is 00:59:06 like a little bit closer than 15 or 11. Dang. I don't know. Maybe not though. Anyway, we got to have her do this again, though. I'll have her guess more. It's just a fluke. She's not even close the next time. I'm going to take her to Vegas with me. Please. Patty, do you think red or black? Black?
Starting point is 00:59:25 Patty, we're going to make a lot of money this weekend. She's a natural. She gets it. Yeah. Catherine would love that. Just, yeah, take our eight-year-old to Vegas. Knock on it. Just figured.
Starting point is 00:59:39 Just in case they missed the Monday episode. Just in case, they'll understand. Vegas, baby. Do you think you'll get out to the strip at all? No, I doubt it. Yeah. I don't think so. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:59:51 I am kind of near to work, man. There's a business trip, Ike. All right? When Southwest asked, I didn't enter any of the other things because it's optional. Why do they want to know? They want enough so bad. Is it just market research? You know, it's funny, you don't have to answer that question.
Starting point is 01:00:09 You don't have to select business, personal, both. But there is a fourth option that says prefer not to say. Oh, there is. Well, if I prefer not to say anything. I'm not going to click it. Oh, interesting. I think I noticed that recently. I see smudges and stuff now.
Starting point is 01:00:24 It's the matcha or the three ensemble Cado Cephora of the fact that I just just niche that I'm energize o'clock. Hmm, it's the ensemble. The form of standard and mini-regrouped, Hello, Ben. And the embellage, too beau, who is practically
Starting point is 01:00:36 pre-a-donned. And I know I'd like these Offreys, but I guard the Summer Fridays and Rare Beauty by Selena Gomez.
Starting point is 01:00:42 I'm, I'm sure. The most ensemble the gift is atolle Shepora. Summer Fridays,
Starting point is 01:00:46 Rare Beauty, Way, Cepora collection, and other part of Vite. Procurry you see form standard and mini,
Starting point is 01:00:51 regrouped for a better quality price, on link on C4. Or a magazine. All of a sudden, you're just
Starting point is 01:00:58 noticing everything. All right, winter the week, what do you always got? my win of the week, I went to Chick-fil-A with my family the other night for dinner, which was so fun. We don't go out, all six of us very often, like out. And so it was just fun time.
Starting point is 01:01:14 But then after that, the plan was, that was the night that the Deacon interview, whatever, was coming over. So, Hart's night. Catherine was going to go home, do some final, you know, cleaning. I took the kids to a park. It was a neighborhood park we'd never been to before. It was a little bit of a risk. And boy, was it a success. They loved it.
Starting point is 01:01:31 They wanted to come back so bad. you took a risk on a park and it was a good one it was it was huge for the program that's fun you get yeah in this life four kids suburban life you're like taking a risk going to new park we've never been to this park it has zip it had one of those like sliding zip lines on the monkey bars and all that stuff it was great good juggle jim it was awesome so i win real quick one thing we haven't mentioned when it comes to this upcoming healing waters promo they we're going to do is the grand prize one person is going to be chosen. It's unbelievable. My win of the week, the reason I stayed back,
Starting point is 01:02:08 it didn't go back with Rachel and her, you know, dad's birthday, everything is our friend Gunner, his mom passed away in the funerals this weekend and wanted to go to that. And I think I've said this before, but I think funerals are almost like good for the soul. Like everyone should go to a funeral once a year. Just to once celebrate someone,
Starting point is 01:02:31 but it too just like put things in perspective. I think they're good. Anyway, Gunner got up and spoke. He did a good job. His brother Drake performed, like sang. He did a good job. There were a lot of cool elements and it was a really good funeral.
Starting point is 01:02:44 But one part I really enjoyed is I seriously get in there. I see some of our good buddies, you know, Nick and Josh and Harrison. We couldn't be like the amount of cars in this parking lot. Like this is crazy. Everyone here supporting Kelly.
Starting point is 01:02:58 And then Harrison and I both like, bonded and realized, like, have you noticed how many cars backed in? Which is like a Gunner thing. We always give Gunnar hard time. He's backed into every parking spot he's ever been to. Harrison Mitchell, he's like in the amount of cars that backed in. I was like, dude, I parked in both cars I parked next to. They backed in.
Starting point is 01:03:15 Like, I should back in. Are we all like doing this? Is this a Duckworth thing or like, this is a Lee Summit thing? Like, I don't know what the takeaway is. It was like, this is great at a Duckworth funeral. Everyone's backing into their spot. It was awesome. That's really funny.
Starting point is 01:03:29 Like, what if Gunner, because Gunner does literally, like, my driveway is so long, like, twice as long as a normal driveway, at least in the back. And he always backs into it, no matter what, even if there's five cars back there who are, like, weaving out of them to back in? What if his whole family did that? And then, yeah, like, all these people in honor of Kelly were just like, we're backing into today, we're back in. Yeah, I was like, yeah, you're right. Everyone did back into the parking lot. Dude, that's awesome. Yes, that was kind of a fun thing.
Starting point is 01:03:57 That's so sweet. I wish we could have, we were in Sublette and we're so sad to miss it. But it is like, it's like, yeah, it just puts everything in the perspective of like, okay, yeah, I'm living, I'm living this life and I'm worried about making, you know, ends meet on this project or on this whatever. But like, it's like, man. And obviously, it's so much more fulfilling. It's not even so much more.
Starting point is 01:04:19 It is, it is only fulfilling to go to a funeral if you know that these people love Jesus and it's like, it's like the different kind of perspective of it's like, oh, man. I wish I, like, why didn't we do more for this person, you know, if it's the opposite. But like, when you're just celebrating, you're like, they're in a better place. Like, yeah, of course, it's still sad on earth, but it's like, this is, this is a celebration at the end of the day. So people were giving me a hard time. I, I wore a suit, but I wore like a light blue blazer. Okay.
Starting point is 01:04:49 Everyone's like, ooh, baby blue blazer. And I was like, sorry, it's a celebration. There you go. I don't like to wear black to fun of me. Everyone's making fun of me. And that is kind of uncharacteristic for you because, like, for, like, Gunner never wears anything bright and, like, colorful. Like, Gunner's always just, like, white, black, tan, brown. Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 01:05:08 Like, I've never seen Gunner. Like, I bet Gunner was, like, really upset that you wore a blue blazer. Uh-huh. In the slideshow, he's wearing bad birdie polos that I gave up. And, like, shield your eyes a little bit when they come on the screen. No, I actually heard a story that the sport coat that Gunner was wearing that day, he thrifted earlier that week. that week perfect yeah like or recently that's awesome somebody told me he he's he's the king yeah that dude's been to some garage sales yeah it's probably doing one right now I'm glad I'm glad
Starting point is 01:05:37 to hear it was good yeah I mean of course it was but yeah I'm glad to hear that um I win did a little music live stream with some friends this week oh really uh when I was Tuesday night um dang on Instagram dot com yeah got to get back on it's okay we want to do more okay uh On Facebook, maybe? Maybe. Or maybe just like email, email like chain? Email blast. Yeah, just send me an email.
Starting point is 01:06:02 We should try to figure out like. No, I'm, don't cater it towards the seven people that don't. I'm going to send it to you, Brad. Okay. No, that was, this was fun. It was like, we had a couple songs that it was me and my friends, Emma, Elliott, and Oliver. And we, one of the live stream concerts, like, this doesn't look like mid. but yeah it was just great it was like we had a couple songs we're like we kind of know this
Starting point is 01:06:30 we'll just jam these and then like take requests and it went fine it's just like you know find the people that are requesting songs that we know just like do our best yeah highlights big gravity by john mayer that was that was fun how do you sorry i was kind of i was i'll be honest i was trying to find a comment of the week um did you talk about how do you do the music aspect of it so because gravity's you got to learn how to play that guitar I mean, there was no gravity. I mean, Eli was on, like, acoustic guitar, like, kind of just doing chords, but it was just, like, the main meat of it was a piano. I just, like, kind of did it on piano.
Starting point is 01:07:05 I don't know, like... You figure that out? It's... The chords are super simple. It is. And then it's just, like, I kind of figured out the first, like, the intro melody a little bit. And then mainly just, like, sang along to it. And then Oliver was on Cajon.
Starting point is 01:07:18 Me and Emma were singing. So, yeah, that's fun. That's fun. Gravity. What else? That was great. We did. trying to think of the ones
Starting point is 01:07:26 that like really kind of came together we did reckless love which was like just a random request and that like kind of sounded great it was like a good moment what else um
Starting point is 01:07:35 started with waiting on the world to change by John Mayer lots of John Mayer and Lizzie McAlpine was a big other artist we did a lot of I don't have much uh knowledge of her

Starting point is 01:07:54 One Instagram. Yeah. It's over. It's one. All right. Come to the week. Mine is going to be from Rhonda Cruz, 39, 31. Talk about waiting for the show to come back on with the amount of seconds.
Starting point is 01:08:09 We didn't have that back in the day. We ran to clear the table or do dishes. And our mom would tell us when the show was back on sometimes. She would forget and we would have a lot done. And we would ask, is it back on yet? And she would say, oh, yeah, it is. That's so relatable. That's great.
Starting point is 01:08:22 It is a good old day. It is so relatable. and it's so fun. Like, yeah, so good. Like, sometimes I would, like, turn the volume up a ton so I could go in the other room and do something and come back.
Starting point is 01:08:33 It's back on. It's back on. Because every once in a while, it was a quick commercial break. Yeah. I was like, that was only three. And then a little, like, promo for the news.
Starting point is 01:08:42 And it was our time. So good, good memories. Mm-hmm. I liked all the comments helping, like, helping us understand how they did go on vacation, in the 80s and 90s and 70s and whatnot. Yeah, that was great.
Starting point is 01:08:56 It sounds like there's a lot of travel agents and word of mouth. Yep. But my comment on the week comes from Sean Thomas White. Sean White. He said, I've never heard of anyone hearing about Ghostrunners' way, so I forget to write a review.
Starting point is 01:09:07 Me and my best friend were diehard Gas Boys' podcast fans. It was such a special podcast for us. I'm sad to have seen it go. They had mentioned Ghostrunners. I knew they came out to visit you guys. Your podcast popped up from my Spotify algorithm. I gave it a go. First episode I remember really enjoying was Fiasco
Starting point is 01:09:21 in the intersection. and I've been hooked ever since. I've been listening backwards, and now I'm all the way down to the time-in-free episodes, which honestly is really sad. But I did also find the episodes when you mention Gavin, Christian, and Parker,
Starting point is 01:09:33 which is super cool. Either way, love the podcast, love finding out about inside jokes and slowly learning more and more about the lives of two random guys in KC, that I literally have no connection to but care about so much now. Hope you guys keep at it for years to come,
Starting point is 01:09:45 unlike the gas boys who sadly don't do the podcast anymore. God bless. Thank you, Sean White. Do you know about the gas boys, Tim? I don't it sounds familiar because I've listened back you would love the gas boys but it was just like another podcast kind of like they were like they were high school yeah because Gavin Gavin was maybe college when he came but yeah kids that came from Oregon oh yeah yeah yeah I remember we called the Oregon boys but they and then I think we did call them the gas boys for some reason
Starting point is 01:10:12 they spent a lot of gas coming here from Oregon or maybe it's because they don't pump their own gas in Oregon yeah that's probably what it was actually yeah and so then they made a podcast I mean, it was two brothers and one of their best friends and they're just fun, fun dudes. So, when they moved to Texas. Parker is the one who looks a lot like Forrest Frank. Yes, don't get a big head, Parker,
Starting point is 01:10:32 but he's a good-looking kid. Yeah. Love the Gas Boys. Me too. Great. Hope you're still listening, G.B.s. But that is, I did see that comment. That's so fun.
Starting point is 01:10:43 Yeah. Like, of all the places, I have not heard of Gas Boys connection yet. So, anyway. good stuff always fun thank you guys for listening making us a part of your week
