Let's talk about it.
I don't think I have.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
All right.
You're in the woods by yourself.
How do you make fire?
You got to find dry sticks?
That's about all I knew.
I was like, all right.
The drier wood, the better.
Right.
And some leaves?
Leaves, I think, are probably like fire starters.
Leaves of three.
It's quick.
Let it burn.
Yeah, there's a rhyme for this.
Yes.
Yeah.
You want to get rid of water, if you can.
Don't use water.
Don't use water.
Don't use water to put on a grease fire. I know that.
If you find some grease, that'd be helpful.
You find grease.
That stuff will just throw water on it.
Right?
And you do want water?
You're good.
How do you get the initial spark if you're out in the woods?
I don't think I could.
I'm not like...
What about rocks or something?
Don't rocks that make sparks?
I think in the category of rocks or something, you're going to find a spark.
Yeah.
Rocks on dry twigs?
Rocks on twigs? A couple rocks on rocks.
Who knows?
A couple volleyball's watching.
Castaway joke.
Uh, uh-oh.
Ooh, I think this tight beat means that it's going down with some random thoughts
in white meat too.
Then West 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 ghost from a podcast.
Oh, my.
A couple of volleyball's watching.
That was a good office quote next to would castaway.
Catherine claims that last episode, she's like,
I can't believe how many office quotes you missed.
Really?
Yeah.
She's like,
there were so many opportunities for office quotes.
And I don't even,
she didn't remember what they were or whatever.
But she did say she was listening to something.
I think it was the Janus bit the other day by her.
She was like listening while driving with Henry and Rosie.
And I think they were listening to something else.
So she was literally like listening.
I don't know, on her headphones or something.
And she said she, like, laughed hard out loud.
Really?
Not at that part, but right after it, the part where you're like,
where we're talking about Pimp My Ride.
And like, you know, we heard you were a barber, so we put a salon in your trunk.
And you go, the air conditioning is filled with hair.
I love that part.
Thanks, Catherine.
It's always encouraging when it's like, hey, I know you and love you and hear you every day.
And it's still funny to me.
Yeah, I listen to you all the time.
Right.
And this still surpassed the baseline level.
Like, all right.
That's great.
So.
You still got it a little bit.
Shout out, Kath.
Anyway,
apologize to those.
I think that was,
yeah,
last week's episode or two weeks episodes.
Two weeks ago,
people were like,
whoa,
heads up.
Don't listen with kids in the car to this one.
I know.
Something came over us.
We were recording,
I think,
at 1.30 p.m.
instead of 9 a.m.
It's a p.m.
It's a p.m.
thing.
Yeah,
we had a little more protein in our system.
And also,
it's hard.
even though we've been doing this seven years, it's hard for me to imagine kids listening to this
because it's never been the intended audience.
So like we will do our best, but sometimes it's like, we're just guys in here.
Yeah, we're just shooting the stuff.
Leaves.
Yeah, shooting the dry leaves.
So, yeah, sorry.
It does make it feel like, I hope people think this about us.
I don't know.
We truly are.
Timon, you can back it up.
We're the same people.
more, or a little bit louder on the podcast, maybe.
Yeah.
I think that is it.
I think, yeah.
Like, I don't want people to be like,
I wonder how much they're censoring themselves for the podcast.
Tim,
and have you ever heard me say a cuss word?
I don't think so.
There you go.
I had a gun to his head for those not watching.
Time of you ever heard me.
I had a mother gun to his head.
Yeah.
Yeah, anyway, because I'm like, I don't think.
Was that convincing?
Let's try it again.
It seemed like I actually don't,
hearing cuss all this time time and you ever heard me cuss no good quicker one more time one more time
don't even let him get the correct the question out yeah here's here's something i just thought of timon
you ever in my life no good never nothing oh it's good to be with you boys i last night got maybe
the worst sleep i've ever gone no dude catherine too it's like being married like at least in the past
few years what happened and i got to say the last two hours leading up to this
did not want a podcast, but now that we're here, now that I'm with my boys, no kids are out.
Say whatever I want.
Yeah, dude.
What happens?
It is good to be.
Oh, just sick.
Are you?
Yeah.
Okay.
But I'm fine.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But just when you don't sleep and you're sick, it's like, oh, I got to talk now.
Catherine.
I got a nice cup of black coffee, little cream, little Splenda.
Fine.
That is what that is.
It's black coffee, cream, and Splenda.
That's what, yeah.
That's what that.
That's easy to comprehend.
Yes.
Like,
I get a black coffee room for cream.
I think as long as you describe all the things, it is true.
Yeah.
You just have.
Yeah.
I have purified water.
Little Yeti.
Little cat.
Room for ice.
Room for ice.
A lot of chemicals.
Yeah,
what are you drinking over there?
Oh, did you get carded for that?
Somehow this time I avoided that, but.
So you're a monster guy.
I mean, you're kind of,
kind of just straying away from your faith?
or you've seen those things and you just you just ignored the signs or maybe you're going towards
the signs it looks like yeah good yep all right uh yes and also
yes and i am um you're trying to get into the belly of the beast yeah yeah yes
try to dig in uh yeah katherine i haven't seen it that might be the first one what oh when he goes
When he starts punching himself, that's how you get the,
that's the first one.
The last one.
The base is the first one.
Second one we're seeing?
Yes.
Underminer?
Underwere.
What's the name?
Captain Underpants.
It's got a different saga.
I would say we're on.
Yep.
It's going.
All right.
Okay.
Hey.
Does it look off?
Shut.
Screen.
Do heaky shut.
All right.
It's fine.
It's working.
It's fine.
Catherine didn't get any sleep last night.
She goes, remind me to never drink coffee at 4 p.m.
Ever again.
Oh, that was it.
And I was like, didn't affect me at all.
I slept so hard last night.
Oh, yeah.
She, like, growing up, her mom and her grandma and aunt used to do coffee hour every day.
We're like, because they lived, like, right in the same little neighborhood together.
And so they would get together and talk for, like, an hour and just drink coffee.
And she's like, oh, it's so sweet.
So every once in a while, it's like, oh, it'd be fun to do coffee hour.
You know, so she and I, we had coffee.
And then the kids had tea, quote unquote, aka relight.
and she read this book called Connoisseur Kids.
So this is a kids podcast.
Spell it.
Kids listen.
Connoisseur.
Ooh.
That's a tough one.
No way.
No way do I get this, but I'm going to try.
No, I think I have 80% chance of getting this.
All right.
C-60.
10.
Yep.
Yeah.
Keep the change.
C-O-N-O-I-S-E-U-R is my guess.
Already different than I would have gone.
I think I would have gone two ends.
Yeah.
Dang it.
Well, I don't know.
I don't know if that's right.
Sounds right, though.
You guys were so confident in it.
My guess.
Is that all you would change?
I'll look it up.
Can I, okay, I'm going to try.
Yeah, what happens after the ends?
C-O-N-N-N.
Oh, yeah, no clue.
Okay.
Conno-sore.
Conno-S-O-N-N.
The middle's tough.
I'll go create, E-I-S-E-U-R.
Nope.
It's not it at all.
That's not even kind of it.
Is it O-I?
It is O-I.
Yeah.
C-O-N-N-N-O-I.
S-S-E-R.
You nailed it.
Yeah.
Wow.
I could think I took some from here.
I took some from here.
No, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I like that we use every once in a while.
We just use French words.
Like not very often.
Yeah.
Entrepreneur.
Yeah.
Pretty French.
Other ones probably.
Baguette.
Yeah.
Baguette's just another word for roll, right?
Or like, but it's like their word.
Just French.
Yeah.
We've made it one kind of bread.
Yeah.
Yeah, what are the French words we have?
I like those.
French words we use in the
French sayings and stuff
Like
For example
All the ones that I'm thinking
For example I'd like to order
French fries
Oh sure
There's a French saying
I'm gonna
We're gonna do
Catchphrase style of this okay
Okay
Okay this is the thing that I don't believe in
But it's like something that people make up
Yeah
Okay this is the thing like
Whoa it's like in a figment
In my imagination
It's like there but it's not
Mirage
Close
That's actually probably also
French
No I don't even
Let me make sure this is what it means.
Nope, this is different than that.
This is like the face of a building.
Like, oh, like, okay, my, I, right here, this part of my head is called my face.
Yes, facade.
Facade, very good.
Okay, okay, next.
This is what happens when you're not quite married yet, but you're engaged.
You are, you have, Beyonce.
Okay, this is like different types of music, like rock, rock and roll, alternative rock, genre, yeah.
This is like something that you look at and you're like,
I don't know, what do I want to order today?
I'm going to use a menu.
Menu, very good.
And this is the last one.
This is like what happens when you like meet up with someone after a while and you meet back.
Rendezvous.
Rendezu, very good.
Dang, rendezvous is French.
So it says on Jim and I.
We have a few more here if you want to do them.
Sure.
Okay, this is like what people say like, like, hey, if you would like to come, please, let me know.
RSV.
Okay.
Oh, I'm, I'm, I'm coming.
coming. I'm driving to you right now.
Rave and root. I'm en route.
Yeah. Okay, this is a long thing.
L loaf of bread. Baguette.
Baguette. Careful, kids.
This is like an all you can eat.
A buffet.
Buffet.
Oh, and can I have that, like, really delicious appetizer that you have?
You're passing around.
Tiramisu.
It's fancy. It's fancy. It's fancy.
You go, Jake.
Oh, entertain you in an hors d'oeuvre. Yeah, very good.
Okay. Oh, man, we need to cook this food, but we got to do it really quickly.
Let's put a little bit of oil in there.
Saute.
Saute.
Very good.
Oh, man.
Did you hear?
That guy right there, he does basic wine.
He's practically like super into wine.
He's like a...
Veno.
He's like super fancy into wine.
He knows all about wine.
A grapest.
He's a grapest.
Yes.
And then...
There's more.
There's so many more.
Somalia is the answer.
Oh, that's right.
I actually did know that.
Oh, yeah.
Avant-Garde.
Ever heard of that?
The guy.
I don't know what it means.
I don't know what it means.
I don't need to say that.
the rest.
Jason Avant.
It's the guy.
Sheik, you used that last episode, I think.
Silhouette.
That's good.
Chef.
No way.
Bureau.
That makes sense.
Chaufer.
That's obviously French.
Critique.
And, ooh, this one I'd never thought of.
Elite.
Does it say anything in there about why we spell glamour, like the European-Canadian way,
but none of the other words?
Why does glamour get, oh, you are?
It doesn't say that.
No.
but color doesn't.
That is pretty strange.
Why is it glamour?
But I'm so okay with,
I'm okay with both.
If glamour didn't have that you,
it wouldn't be fancy.
Yeah, I'm okay with the balance we've struck.
If color had the you,
it'd be like, get out of here.
It's color.
Anyway.
So connoisseur kids.
French shower.
Yeah.
Had some coffee last night,
taught the kids
how to clean their house,
clean their rooms.
That's nice.
Bo was awesome afterwards.
He's like, all right, everyone gets your room.
Let's clean.
Sometimes Bo gets in these moods where he's like super like boy leader.
All right, everyone gets their room.
Let's clean.
Then we get to all the rooms.
We help each other out.
Let's go.
Like, yeah, it's working.
That is great.
Yeah.
Be a good connoisseur.
It doesn't happen all the time.
But anyway.
Did you guys watch Alex Honnold climb?
No, but it seems like I was the only one.
I don't have Netflix.
I feel like I'm like very out of the out of the loop.
I've never had Netflix, but I've bummed it for so long.
And they've finally been like, we figure out how to make it pretty hard to bomb.
Yeah, too many screens.
Yeah.
Did you watch it?
You know what we're talking about?
No, I just saw the ending clip on Instagram.
It's pretty sweet.
Yeah, we happened to turn it on when it was happening.
Pretty exhilarating.
Okay, explain to me.
No nets.
He's going free solo again, which means no ropes, no nets.
They said no nets.
And I kept thinking, surely there's a net.
But then they would cut to like a wide.
view and it's like, there's no net.
Where is he? This guy climbed.
So it's funny enough, it's a building that Isaac
and I were in, like, less than a year ago.
It's the, this 101 Taipei building
in like the capital of Taiwan.
Okay. Like the 11th largest building in the world?
It was a big one. Wow.
And so anyway, he just climbed that one day.
Climbed in about an hour and a half.
He climbed. Just from the bottom
to the top, 101 stories, live on Netflix,
no ropes, no nets.
With MX Platinum.
Almost every purchase made with your card can be covered with points, including new tastes, new fits, and virtually everything in between.
That's the powerful backing of Amex.
Conditions apply.
What is he, what kind of things are there to hold on to on this thing?
Like there's little ridges in the windows?
Yeah.
So I've since, like, done somewhat of a deep dive on Reddit and Twitter.
And basically, anyone who's a climber says, like, it's easy.
Climers know that this is, like, not very technically difficult at all.
What he did in the documentary free solo climbing L-Cap was a hundred times harder than this.
And like, this is not impressive to climbers, but it is pretty cool that he still did this.
And like there definitely was a threat of him falling and dying.
Apparently Netflix had a 10 second delay.
Okay.
So it's some, but it's not a ton.
Sheesh, dude.
Yeah.
And what would happen if they just stop?
Cut the broadcast.
Yeah, it's like, you can kind of guess what happened.
Holy cow.
Huh.
I'm just seeing a few like still shots of this.
I mean, there were so many people.
there were people at every story like banging on the glass and watch them.
I was like, that has to be distracted.
Don't you dare.
Yeah, you just don't let them do that.
They were like like face to face with him.
Right there with him.
Yeah, like he is climbing.
Yeah.
Not supported by anything.
I would get videos at my feet of like from phones or like people like in the building like
hi.
Like don't.
Just let him do it.
So yeah.
I haven't seen much criticism about that.
When we were watching,
we were very annoyed by that.
That stressed us out.
Yeah.
It's like wanting their sign to be.
and just flashing it while he's, like, fighting for his life.
But the thing that gets criticism online now is there were commentators for it.
And I guess so he was miced up and he had an earpiece.
So they're like kind of doing interviews with them and commentators are just rambling on about who knows what.
I think everyone's like, we want to see this autistic guy climb and listen to what he says.
We don't want to hear anything else.
Oh, because he had mics on him.
He was miced up too.
And he's kind of just fascinating to listen to because he like, he gets to the very top and he doesn't have some spiel.
He could have said anything.
He's live on Netflix.
He goes.
Sick.
I'm really psyched.
He just says it so monotone.
I'm really psyched that I did this.
This is a pretty cool view.
Wow.
Suppose I should take a picture.
Turns out he's had his cell phone to his pocket the whole time.
What?
Takes a few selfies.
And dude,
that's what was stressing me out.
Like, yes,
he climbed all the way up here,
but he is not on what I would call flat ground.
At the top of this building,
hanging on a nothing.
It just like taking selfies, dude.
It was agonizing,
watching it.
But he's fine.
How?
I mean, I think everyone's got a fear of heights, right?
Like, at some level.
Of course, like, there's different levels of it.
But like, dude, beast games, I know the episode you haven't seen yet.
Not too big of a spoiler.
But last night, the guy does, I don't have a fear of heights.
I just have the fear of falling.
Oh.
I think that's what the fear of heights is.
That's what it translates to.
Yeah, exactly.
Well, because I was going to say, like, I'm not super, like, I can go to a top building.
But, like, I can't get within five feet of, like, the edge.
Because I think, like, what if I fall?
and then I fall two more times and roll.
Like it's like, it's like I have like double worst case scenario on top of like, like,
like it's like one thing to be like, whoa, I lost my feet and like fell.
But it's like, no, I fall.
And then what if, what if something else crazy happens where somebody like boosts me up after
I fall and I fall again?
Oh, yeah.
Being at the Grand Canyon or any where I've been like that.
It's like I will creep to the edge because I do like that feeling a little bit,
but I got to get out of there fast.
And even when I'm up there, I'm not even enjoying the view.
I'm looking down at like, our worst case.
scenario, what could I grab onto? That looks pretty solid. That brand, I could grab on to that.
Like, if I slip for some reason. There is like a joy of the thrill of it, but it's not like,
I just am so comfortable up there. Like, same with like roller coasters without being real.
Like sometimes they're fun, but other times I'm like, I'm a little scared right now, but I'm
gonna like act like it's fun. It's fun for a second. Yeah. So, yeah, I haven't seen Free Solo.
I've never like, yeah, never delved into him. But is he the one that like has no sense of fear?
I think it's like a minimalized one. I think is, I think it's,
amygdala.
Rachel might just be messing with me.
She threw that word out there.
But yeah, I think it's like,
they did a little study on him
where they would show him
images of scary things
and like what normally happens
brain activity-wise
versus his was like way smaller.
Which I think there's an argument to me
that comes from like more nurture rather than nature.
Maybe he wasn't born with this,
but like if you've been rock climbing
and free soloing your whole life,
you probably like, you know,
you know, let go of fear over time.
Yeah.
Dude, there's...
Chicken or the...
I...
Yeah, that Inx Generation book,
they talk about, like...
It's not the same thing, but, like, how no one...
Like, kids these days have less...
They're less likely to break their arm
than a 50-year-old or something like that.
Yeah.
I told you that.
No risk.
Because they don't take risk anymore.
All risz, no risk.
That's what they say.
Rizk.
They have risk, but no risk.
And the idea is, like, yeah, they're scared
to break the, whereas, like, if you break your arm once, you fall, like,
are you not a statistic time?
Yeah, time.
Are you never going to, like, swing again?
What?
Like, are you never?
What am I supposed to say?
Because I'll swing again for sure.
I think the answer is, like, if you've, if you've been through a painful experience,
like, kind of like what you're saying, like, if you've rock climbed enough in your life
and you understand, like, hey, yeah, it's, it's bad if you fall, but, like, I'm still
here.
Like, then all of a sudden, you're like, okay, I'm not that scared of this thing anymore.
Like, I'm not afraid anymore.
I think that's the idea is like
the people that never climb trees like me
like I'm scared I'm so scared of when Hattie goes up like
20 feet in the air I'm like oh my gosh
please don't do that but then if you do it you're like
it's not that scary I don't know
so yep you're gonna you're gonna climb
yeah I'm gonna I'm gonna do
flips off swings but I'm just gonna be more careful
just land it dude some of these not gonna
yeah not gonna fall have you seen free so long time ago
yeah as I say it's
Remember being super interesting.
Shot really well.
Yeah.
Yeah, you know he makes it out alive and you're still just stressed at the max.
Yeah.
It's insane what he did.
I know we've done like a shmores back in the day of like, or a bracket of the best movies we never saw.
It's like one of those things where like I've never heard anybody say anything bad about freestyle though, but I've still never like.
But it's on the list of sought it out.
I don't know.
It's just like, I don't know.
I bet it's good.
But like until somebody like press this play, I'm not going to watch it.
Spoon feeds it to you.
I don't know why.
Anyway, how's your snow days?
I guess you got sick.
Snow day was good.
Monday, Rachel, out of snow day.
So it was snow day for everybody.
That was fun.
Yeah.
It was going to hang out together.
Actually, I put her to work quite a bit.
We went up to a pickleball facility and shot some videos.
I had her do a thing.
I kind of, don't tell anyone.
I did a fake tweet generator and kind of made up my own tweet and acted like it was this viral thing that was like.
People are saying.
Yeah.
This tweet is going viral saying,
would you trust your significant other to get 20 attempts
to serve a pickleball into a bucket
if they do it once you went $10 million
if they don't you die
what would you do?
And so then I took Rachel to the courts to like do it.
A classic viral tweet.
That's fun.
Her first try before I'd set up the camera
she made it into the bucket.
Like when she was just practicing?
Yeah, like all right, let's see how hard this is going to be
right in the bucket, right into Menards.
No and Rachel, she used to be like,
I made it.
Wow, dude, see that?
And then there's like old.
old man, Rick was over there.
Like, hey, your husband might not have seen it, but I saw it, girl.
And then once the camera got rolling, took a little.
Yeah.
I would have died.
Yeah.
I would have died.
Yeah.
It was past 20.
How many times would you have died?
Six.
Don't say it.
Yeah.
You almost.
I didn't mean to.
I didn't mean to.
You almost did it.
Six or eight.
So, yeah, I had a good snow day Monday,
put her to work.
Yeah.
Productive.
It was good.
And I think that was also the day that,
I said goodbye to Isaac.
I was at his house as he left for for China.
They're in China.
Yeah.
Okay.
Oh, that's right.
I saw that.
Yeah.
I saw Isaac.
I saw a picture of Isaac in that Chinese guy.
Yes, dude.
Is that the guy you know?
Yes.
Is that the deal, deal, deal, deal, deal.
Yes.
I've been getting, I, they've only been there an hour and I was already like, all right,
Scott, I'm giving you the task.
Pretend you have a, like, write down everything that happens.
Yeah.
And we'll have you on the podcast, just to debrief it for a little bit.
Love it.
immediately they landed and none of their luggage made it with him. So, like, this is great.
Really? I don't want to know anything else. I don't know where you're getting underwear from. I don't know what's going on.
Just write it down. Tell me when you get back. That's amazing, dude.
But it is very fun. Every morning you wake up and they've been living, you know, their whole day.
And so you get all these texts and everything. So, yeah, there is, yeah, they'll have some good stories when they get back.
Oh, man. Have you ever heard that, have you heard, have you heard, do, deal, deal, do, do. I don't think
so. Oh, man. I feel like for a while he did it. It was his... He likes it a lot.
Taco guys. Yeah, he was stimming.
It's a longer story that maybe we don't need to tell on the podcast. I don't know.
But it's basically the end of it is they were, you guys were working on a deal with these Chinese
guys. And finally, like, you know, after hours, days. After, yeah.
Do do, do, do, do, do. And so now, like, when we're like talking about, like, hey, we should we go here,
should we go there.
We figured out finally get the plans going.
All right,
all right,
sounds good.
Deal, deal, deal, deal, deal, deal.
So I got a picture that was very similar to the last deal that was struck.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
But I do have one picture.
I want to show you guys.
So this is a,
I really want to mainly talk about their trip,
I guess,
when they are back and they can talk about it.
But for now,
I did get this one picture.
I want you guys to,
man,
it's taken a while to send.
This is at a gym.
I guess they went to like a fitness.
Center while they're there in China.
This is a sign. This is like an inspirational quote
at the gym. So,
Brad or Tyman, I guess, like,
the challenge is, can you read it out loud
without doing a Chinese accent? I think it's going to be hard
not to fall into it, but would one of you like to just read out loud?
This is your motivation today, guys, if you're at the gym or you're thinking
about not going to the gym. All right, no Chinese accent.
You go for, Brad.
Love and whistle.
The two cannot have bad.
Closer to your dreams,
continue with a lot of it and bring you.
It's great.
Yeah, so that last word was,
it's supposed to be continuously running,
but continuously spelled with an A.
Continuously running.
That's the best part.
And it's capital C.
Closer to your dreams is not capital.
Yeah.
It's just,
it's truly beautiful.
Love and wisdom.
wisdom. The two cannot have bath.
That speaks volumes.
They cannot bathe together.
Yeah. And the next ends, closer to your dreams.
Continuously running can't bring you.
I'm trying to even make out what they're trying to say.
You can't have love and wisdom together?
I can't figure it out.
Why would you not be able to have love and wisdom?
It feels like you can't, you have to, maybe they both have to be there together.
Okay, can't walk without the other.
But that's not what they're saying.
What's that old quote of like the hungry?
No, hold on.
It's like the, the, the, it sounds like I'm trying to make something up,
but it's like the fox chasing two geese goes hungry or something like that.
Like if you chase two things at once, you'll never get both.
Sounds right.
Something like that.
The fox chasing two geese goes hungry, I think is what they're going for.
That's probably what it is.
I don't know.
Closer to your dreams.
Continuously running can bring you.
I think that right there needs to be a t-shirt.
Closer to your dreams, continuously running,
all in Times Zeroman, just on a wall in China?
Yeah, just in the middle of China.
Rural China.
That's rule.
That's amazing, dude.
Like the two cannot have bath.
Like they both, they bath can't exist.
The two cannot have bath of them.
Do you remember when we saying that, though, when I was there,
I was like, you know, we always worry about,
oh, I got this Chinese tattoo.
Oh, you know what it actually says?
And I saw the reverse, like T-shirts that made no sense or, you know.
They don't care.
Yeah, they don't know what it says.
Continuously running.
Matt was the one who sent that, and I was laughing at it.
Oh, is he there too?
Or is he?
Yeah, Matt Scott and Isaac all ended up going.
And so then I replied to it and he goes, Scott, I know you want to voice memo this.
And he said something.
And he said, I've almost had some flare-ups in traffic.
All right, let me tell you a story about Main Street Roasters and how much I love him.
Oh, why don't I sit down for this?
That sounds great.
It's more of, it's a decent story.
All right. It's a, it's a five out of ten. It's, it's a ten out of ten if you were there. All right.
Got it. So I got this new coffee grinder. I love it. So I'm using Main Street Roasters,
whole beans in this coffee grinder. It makes the exact amount that I need for X amount of cups of coffee. It's awesome.
Like has a scale on there. It does it all. So good. So fun. Ran out of beans the other day because,
man, I love using them from Mainstreamroaster.com. And so I go to get more beans in there.
and long story short the reservoir the the canister that holds the beans the thing in the bottom of it
is broken to where it's supposed to shut whenever I take the reservoir off of the grinder
it's supposed to open when I put it back on okay so it's just open all the time long story short
truly not that good of a story but if you were there it's hilarious uh I had two different instances
where I had a thousand beans on the floor oh I spilled it once and I was
I'm like, I'm an idiot.
And I look over,
Hattie saw me do it.
And I go,
Hattie,
you know how I tell you,
like,
you need to be, like,
happy and just, like,
find hilarious,
like humor and, like,
tough times.
I was like,
I need to do that for you right now.
So I was like,
I'm going to have a good attitude
about this.
And then I spilled them again.
Like,
I cleaned them all up.
No.
Dude,
I was an idiot.
I was trying,
I was having a hard time,
like,
with something.
I don't know.
I truly don't know.
It happened so fast.
Like,
both times they just,
they just spilled out of this canister.
And so the Ethiopian Yerga Chaffei, I didn't have that much of that one.
I did not sample that much of that one.
You've lost 2,000 beans to the floor.
I lost, yeah, like a good two-thirds of the bag onto the floor.
And Catherine, like, apparently had you, like, went in to see Catherine, and she's like,
yeah, dad just spilled a bunch of beans.
And then Catherine walks in and sees me spilled the beans the second time.
And I just, I wanted to be mad.
but I couldn't because I was smelling the amazing aroma of mainseroasters everywhere.
Haddy went into your bedroom and said to your mom,
it was just like, hey, Brad just spelled Mainster's amazing beans all over the ground.
Yeah, and she's like, oh, did he pay full price?
And Haddy said, oh, mom, if you go to Maitterroaster.com and use promo code GRKC,
you won't have to pay full price.
And Catherine replied.
Oh.
And then Haddy said, seriously.
Bo walks in.
Bo's all like,
guys, we need to clean
opera out here.
Wipe up the beads.
Rosie walks in.
She's like,
Dad,
Daspel the beans.
You heard of Dad,
Spillardustle beans?
That's spelled beans.
And then Catherine's like,
guys, guys.
Guys, guys.
Wait about Henry.
Don't forget Henry.
I don't know where Henry's at.
Henry waddles in.
It just says,
eat, eat.
And he's eaten all.
the beans, all thousand of them.
And Hattie says, no, don't eat those.

I need to take a break real quick.
Do a bathroom.
Sorry.
Do a bathroom?
Continuously running through the bathroom can bring you.
You cannot have bath without room.
We're back.
How was bathroom due?
Hey, go back to the tape.
I think I said, I think I got to go a bathroom.
I might have heard do.
I just mumbled it.
I have to make a doa da bathroom.
Make, yeah, for whatever reason, I never, I hate that.
I hate, like, you need to make.
Make a potty?
Yes.
Yes.
I need you to make me a sandwich.
Yeah, you don't make, you don't make that.
You go.
You do that.
That, honestly, that's one of those things.
You just unlock something I really get frustrated about now that I think about it.
You make a mistake.
Did people say that?
I think they say it more for like, you go make a potty.
Did you, I think maybe they say it to babies and dogs.
Dogs.
Yeah.
Did you make a stinky?
Yeah.
Make a stinky.
Did you make that stinky?
Love and stinky.
Oh.
The two cannot have both.
Continuously stinky.
Continuously wiping.
Wipe at a marker down there.
You seen that blooper of Parks and Rec?
I feel like it's maybe one of the more popular.
It's like the most viral thing from the show and it like didn't make it in it.
Oh my gosh, dude.
We had a fun snow day.
First one was like, like the kids were itching to go outside.
And I was like, you can't go outside.
It's dangerously.
Like, it's too cold.
But it started.
Yeah.
And then the next day was just as cold.
I gave it.
Yeah.
Because they kept me like, can we go sledding?
And it was so, like, the snow was so powdery and like, whatever.
That was like, it's not going to be great for that.
I don't know.
And it's so cold.
We're going to get out there.
We're going to be out.
Like, I don't mind being out.
the cold. I don't mind bundling up personally. I really do not like my kids getting all dressed up
for them to be out there for like five minutes. That bothers me. Yeah, our minimum if we're going to get
dressed up. Like, we're committing to this at this point. And, and so, and to be fair,
Catherine's listening to this. She's like, Brad, you don't, you don't do any of that. She's the one that
puts it all. Yeah. But I can't, I can't stand like, because it's a process. They have layers and layers.
So anyway, second day, though, we went sledding and it was awesome. It's so fun. There's one. There's
sled that we have. I don't know where we got it, but it is, it's like that one sled that
everyone has. Like, there's one sled that's just better than the other ones. This one just goes so
far. I mean, it's just, just tiny little red sled. We probably got it Ace Hardware or something,
and Bo just flies on it, dude. It's awesome. He loves it. Yeah. Find this little park by our house.
No one's ever there. It's awesome. So it was great. And then we went back the next day, I think,
or two days later again. And we like, put, made like a big, like, mountain.
We called it of snow.
And they went down the mountain into the rest of the...
Ah, down the mountain.
Let's do the mountain one.
Did all these different things.
So it's a blast, man.
Did you guys see that this winter storm that came through, the whole country, had a name?
Yes, and there was a terrible name, right?
Yeah.
We were like watching the news or something.
They're like, all right, this latest from winter storm fern.
They're naming winter storms now.
In fern is the first one I've heard of?
Because they don't they go alphabetical with the storms?
like tropical storms and hurricanes, I thought.
So yeah, we've missed five of these.
Who gets to?
Who gets to do this?
Who does get to?
Because I would love to.
Is it one, does like one person have the autonomy, whatever they want?
Is there a panel?
Is there a-
Or is it like, yeah.
Checks and balances.
You get this one.
I get the next one.
So somebody's been sitting on F for, you know.
Let me have Furn.
Seven years.
And they're like, Furn.
Finally, we got a big one.
Fern.
Yeah, they're like, dang it.
This guy's going to do Fern for like the massive storm.
Great.
It's on, yeah.
I have heard them name,
winter storms before.
It feels like they're less,
they're less notariable.
That's the word, right?
Notariable.
Like,
and I have both.
Hurricanes,
name them, you know.
But you can't,
you don't need a name
a winter storm
unless it's like an ice storm
or something.
Which I think it was kind of an ice storm
for a lot of people.
Well,
I wasn't one of them.
That's true.
Yeah,
you don't need to know.
Their fern, yeah.
But yeah,
it's a,
I know,
so the only name ever heard before was a couple of years
ago we got polar vortex, which that wasn't really
a name, but they still, they gave it a name.
Polar vortex is awesome. That's scary.
That's way cool than, yeah, I'll take that serious.
Isn't that the next Friday paddle?
Yeah, polar vortex.
It's iced out, all white. It's like the masters.
Yeah, polar vortex is scary.
Fern is like, what do we set our clocks for?
Is it spring? I don't know what Fern means.
Fern sounds nice.
Fern's just a tranquil little thing, and
instead it was like, no, it was blanketing the entire
country. Yeah, everybody got it.
Dude, you sent me a voice, but most
Saturday.
Yeah.
And you're like,
dude,
this is fun.
Like,
I love seeing that
you're in independence
right now, dude.
We're both out and about
in the conditions.
I did not share that
cheery sentiment as I was definitely trying to get home from
independence.
I was like,
my truck's doing all right in this.
But like,
usually my truck is like a cheat code.
It's awesome.
Yeah.
And even my truck was like,
eh,
it's okay.
I was like,
Jake's in Missouri where they don't treat the roads as well.
How's he doing over there with this Tesla?
Because you were in the Tesla?
Were you in this?
Yeah.
Okay.
You know what it is?
I don't hear anyone else talk about this with electric cars,
but a big downside of them is they don't,
because they don't have a motor, they don't get hot.
So like the exterior of the car,
well, any part of the car, really on the outside of it,
that's the exterior, doesn't get hot.
So like my trunk has been frozen shut for eight days now.
Oh, wow.
You know, like those things don't heat up.
Oh.
It's almost like a turtle or a snake or something.
It's like it doesn't have blood running through it to warm it up.
It's kind of how I, like, think about it.
Like, there's nothing warm.
besides the cabin in this car.
So as far as like tires go,
as far as like sliding,
like I don't slide, yes,
yes,
my car drives good in the winter,
but when it comes to like,
yeah,
there's just ice on the outside of the sink forever
and especially like the windshield wipers.
Oh.
So it took me long,
pressure,
I don't have to go on to it,
but it took me two hours to get home.
No way!
I stopped at quick trip.
It was like,
hey, do you guys have an ice scraper?
Because I didn't have one.
That's my fault.
Yeah.
And didn't love this.
He goes,
Ice scraper.
Don't.
Don't.
What is it?
What does that do?
Yeah.
What are you trying to scrape ice?
I was like, am I calling it?
In fern?
Dude, we're in the middle fern.
Just get your own ice scraper.
I honestly thought, I was like, am I calling it?
What is the actual name for it?
I go, no, it's ice scraper.
Yeah.
Right?
Yeah.
There's no other name for it as far as I've heard.
I don't care of your Midwest, Northeast, from the South.
called an ice scraper. He clarifies, he goes, ice scraper? Um, like for your, like for your car?
Yeah, dude. That's the one. Dude, you're good. You're good at this. That's the one. Yes, do you have one?
He said no. That's okay. Luckily, I am like, 0.2 miles from a Costco. I'm like, holy cow,
that was so convenient. All right. I can go backroads. Can't really see, but I can get to Costco.
Where no ice scraper at Costco? No, they should have like a 17 foot long ice scraper at
Or 20 of them.
Yeah.
Get the value pack.
Really?
No ice scraper at Costco.
I asked multiple people because once again, didn't trust the first guy.
They didn't know Fern was coming.
They were not prepared for them.
They were open?
Yeah, they were open.
Dude, life hack, go to Costco during winter tour of Fern.
Nobody in there.
Nobody in there.
I didn't get an ice scraper, but I got a lot of chocolate covered,
asaibati.
I got some liquid IV just to have.
I don't know.
How long I'm going to be out here?
Can use some electrolytes?
Well, we're here.
What I do.
did, I think you'll appreciate this, is I ended up going into a Chipotle.
Because as I'm Googling, like, how do you get ice off if you don't have an ice scraper?
Brown rice.
Casso.
Casso.
Lettuce.
Heat up that queso until it's boiling.
No pico.
So what I did, I said, hey, can I get just like a warm cup of water from you guys?
And she goes, I think a response was, oh, no, we don't even have a microwave.
And so I was like, okay.
It's all fresh, baby.
Yeah, I was like, do you just have like a, just room temp water?
Just like anything, just like non, you know, cold water.
And she's like, I would have to check.
I don't know.
And one thing leads to another.
I'm getting like, how am I going to get home?
You know, the sun is set.
I convince this woman.
No, it's just me.
This is Saturday.
I am going to play pickleball stupidly.
I convince this woman.
Just for the context where the goes, this independence is.
far. It's far. Like, it's not like, like, it's far in a, without Fern. It's, it's far without Fern.
And I got there kind of fine, even though there was, Fern was here, but in the daylight got there
fine. Really? And then going back home, it was just still snowing. Snowing up a storm. It snowed a lot.
Yeah. Yeah. Like, after I got home, the next day we went to church. And yeah, I had to like clear off
my truck again. Yeah. It was a lot of snow still. But not a lot, but like three, four inches at least.
Good, good for us. Yeah, which is a lot to some people, right? Um, so my current issue. So my current
issue was that, yes, I could run the defrost like crazy. So there's no ice on my windshield,
but what I think was happening, you know, thermo-wise was like my windshield is so hot as soon as the
snow would hit my windshield, it would turn into water. And then I couldn't see because my
windshield wipers are just two icicles. So then the windshield wipers would make it worse.
I hate that noise that they're making too. Yes. Oh, scudding and scraping. I couldn't get
ice off. You know, and I'm trying to. I'm trying to smear. I hate that noise that they're
trying with my bare hands getting frostbite out there. I can't get the eyes off. Were you trying to,
like, throw them? That's what I would do. I'm serious. I put like an elbow. No, no, I would,
I would pick them up and then whack it down, whack it down. I was trying to think, but I mean,
it was thick, thick ice on the wipers. And so I was like, once I get going fast enough,
the snow will, like, flow off by Winchell, but when you drive slow, yeah, like, it just
lands on your windshield wipers. It's a funny little conundron to be in. And so I convinced this
woman to let me go in the back of the Chipotle.
and I filled up a mop bucket with their like warm water in the back.
So like they got to have like a back kitchen back here.
Yeah, they have hot water.
Yes, I know you have hot water.
Yes.
And I'm, you know, chat GPT and all.
Like, yeah, you definitely don't want boiling water.
That's when like you crack your windshield and stuff.
But like just like warmish water, it's way above freezing.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And sure enough, it works like a charm.
Good.
It was great.
Melted all that ice right off.
Okay.
So it was awesome.
So I got to see the back of a Chipotle too.
Wow.
That's so much funnier to me.
you did it by yourself.
Like, for some reason,
because you said you were with Rachel doing this.
So I was like,
oh,
Rachel was with you.
It did it in a minute.
That's so funny that it was just you,
solo.
Just me.
Yeah.
And the fact that you went to Costco
and didn't,
that you really did buy stuff there?
Yeah,
I bought a thing of,
yeah, liquid IV and granola bars.
Yeah.
Just a case.
Yeah.
Like a heated blanket
that you can plug into your cigarette lighter.
I was kind of dumb because then after that,
I tried scraping off the ice.
And I was like,
why didn't I buy gloves?
I was going to say, did you?
Why did I buy gloves?
Surely they had gloves there.
Yeah, they probably had gloves.
I didn't buy gloves.
That was dumb.
I will, I won't admit that.
But yeah, back kitchen of Chipotle.
They got warm water.
Don't let them tell you they don't.
I love getting resourceful.
Like, obviously at the time, it's like, this is kind of a bummer.
That sucks.
It's taken forever.
But it's like, yeah, when push comes to shove.
Yeah.
We got problems off.
Yeah, the other night, I got home and no one else was home.
And I looked at Catherine's location and she was at the sledding park.
And so I was like, I'm going to go meet him there.
So I didn't even get.
into my, or out of my truck, I just left right away and should have got out and gotten my coat
or some gloves or something, but I didn't think of anything. And so I was like, my hands are at the
coldest part. And so I looked in around in my truck and I found a pair of like no show socks that I
had. And I wore those as mittens. And I was like, but I was like, you push me. I was like,
absolutely buddy. You know, pushers right here. Yeah. But yeah, just got resourceful with
that, you know, just making it work.
Yeah.
So, man, that's crazy.
I, uh, speaking of hot water, our hot water heater cat, haddy the other day.
And I, I don't know if I emphasize this enough to her at the time.
I was like, you need to tell me next time.
She's like, just kind of casually right before dinner.
She's like, there's a, the floor's wet in the basement.
Okay.
Yeah, it really did.
It kind of derailed me for like four hours.
Like it was like, this is a decent night.
It's kind of cold.
We're kind of cozy and in.
Captain's got this nice soup or whatever it was on the on the stove and all of a sudden I just had to figure that out
Long story short, something people people out there that know will know this the T&P control valve on the hot water heater
You know and so it just started just gushing water
T&P stands for temperature and pressure Duh
Okay here's something I did I learned stuff about hot water heaters real quick and now that's like it's one of those things where once you unlock
knowledge. You think about it.
Like yesterday at church, I was washing my hands with hot water.
I was like, I bet the hot water heater here is huge.
What kind of tank they got there?
Yeah, more realistically, they probably have a million of them.
But anyway, what was I saying?
Hot water heater.
I bet their pilot light never goes out of here.
Yeah, truly.
I was like, how do they maintain this thing?
But anyway, just learned a lot about hot water heater.
Temperature and pressure control valve.
So I guess I haven't watched this to confirm it, but there's like a MythBusters episode
where they don't have one of these T&P control valves.
What happens?
It explodes up, like, because of like it gets so hot and so pressurized, like all the steam
that it gets so pressurized that the entire like hot water heater will like went up from
the basement into the next floor or something like.
Holy cow way.
And so I was like, all right.
What happens to your house?
I better, no, no, it didn't.
It just, when it, when it malfunctions, the, like, nozzle on it no longer stops.
It, I don't know.
Anyway, so it wasn't, like, water was coming out, but it just was, like, not able to be controlled and turned off.
Whatever.
Wow.
So I fixed it, and it really wasn't that hard.
If anybody knows what they're doing, they're like, yeah, that's, like the easiest thing you could do as a plumber.
But to me, I felt so accomplished.
They figured it out.
It was like, $40.
I was like, oh, that's not bad.
Nice.
compared to calling somebody.
Anyway, but yeah, so now all,
like I'm very thankful for hot water
because we didn't have it for like two hours.
And it was like, wow.
FYI, we don't have hot water for a while.
We're going to have to hunker down.
Catherine's like, okay, I think we can do it.
I'll just wait to, you know, wash the dishes.

We can make it through.
We can make it work.
But for some reason I have just been waiting.
I'm like, our heater is going to go out.
It just felt like it's on constantly.
When it's just cold out, I'm like, I can't keep this up.
Right.
House is too old.
How old is you're here?
But so far, it's doing, I don't even remember.
Yeah.
But it's done great so far.
Isn't that amazing?
So far so good.
It just works.
Yeah, just the machine does what it's told.
That's nice when it does that.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I remember back in the day when we upgraded our like hot water heater, like I think somehow.
And it was like, wow, like the whole family could take like a few minute shower.
Yeah.
Like it's not like getting it out as fast you can on like Sunday morning.
Like, it's like, oh, it's not going to run out immediately.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's a big deal.
Our plumber, like, I had him.
I was like, hey, our hot water is going really quick.
He's like, well, you can just do another one.
You can just have two hot water heaters.
Get another.
So now we have two.
And so it's kind of cool.
It's like we never run out hot water until it gushes out on the basement.
I get a third.
But why not?
Hear me out.
Yeah.
Both start showering.
Yeah.
Anyway, and it was funny.
This is the first time in my life that I've ever in an emergency,
probably what you did as well, use chatGBT.
Like immediately.
I was just like, hey, water is gushing out.
hear what do I do? And they're like, here's what you do right away, you know, step by step
with emojis. That's good. Yeah. I'm always glad for those. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, the emojis are good.
Great question, Brad. And you're on the right track, knowing that you need help with this.
Let me break it down for you and three simple things you should do right now. Would you like me to
craft this up in a PDF or something could email to your plumber? If you can let me know the exact
setup, I could, you know, give you even more detailed things. Yeah, we can do a DIY approach
You call a plumber.
Apparently I kind of dropped the ball as landlord.
The Eletha house got a little chilly this week.
I heard timing.
Just a little bit.
It was fine.
There was one night I did sleep in a coat,
but I think that it was never the end of the world.
No.
I went there.
It's funny, I don't know if I visited that house in all of 2025,
and I've been there three times in January.
Okay.
I'm there all the time now.
But anyway, yeah, I think it was Isaac and Nathan Coley,
who were there.
And they were telling me, like,
yeah, got pretty cold.
a few nights ago. I think I woke up and it said 59. I was like, too, 59. Tell me about that.
Yeah. I can help. I mean, and they showed me the filter, like the air filter. And I mean,
it looked like a blanket. If it's not, no air was passing through. It could use the filter as a
nice, you know, warm. Yeah, throw the filter on you. And anyway, that fixed it. That was all it was.
A $15 filter. Sweet. Easy.
Dang, but 59 degrees is wild. Yeah. Was that one of one morning? Yeah. That's my time is moving
out. Yeah, it was just, it was like, woke up. I was like, it's the worst definitely is like
post shower, like getting dressed in my room. It's like, wow, this is, this sucks. But besides
that, I don't care. I'm closed. Do you guys feel, I find it very hard to get out of the shower
and just acclimate in general? Like, no matter what the temperature is, I feel like it's just
tough to go from like hot water to then like, because like back at summer camp, like, I hated
going back into heat and humidity.
Like I don't even feel clean now.
I'm sweating.
I'm like drying off,
but I think I'm drying sweat off of me.
This is disgusting.
It's like,
is this sweat or is this water?
Like my back,
I think that's sweat already.
It's like,
I dried myself.
So why am I still wet?
So like saying like just to stay in the same temperature,
that doesn't work.
You have to go to a colder temperature.
Yeah.
But anything,
everything feels cold getting out of shower though.
I don't know how you do it.
If,
if you ever like redo a bathroom or something,
for your own house or whatever,
like do heated floors.
They're not that expensive.
I mean,
they're not cheap,
but like if your house isn't huge
or if your bathroom is like our bathroom,
we have a tiny bathroom.
So I think it was like 300 bucks or something like that.
Oh, that's great.
Yeah, I mean, a bigger bathroom
would probably be a thousand bucks or something,
but like 300 bucks and they're amazing, dude.
They're awesome.
And that helps the acclamesh.
Oh, do you ever just like,
curl up on them and just like,
I feel like I would just be so cold out of the shower.
I'd be just like, I'll just take a nap here.
Yes, me just plank on this.
Just feels.
great. Honestly, I don't think I, that's how small our bathroom is. I don't think I could fit to
curl up. But yeah, dude, I remember, like, camp showers, because often you would shower,
and then you'd go right from there to your two-four, like your day off. Yes. And so you kind of
got dressed up, you know, because a lot of times it was like six to six, so it was like 6 p.m.
The Texas A&M guys are wearing jeans. Yeah, dude. And you're trying to go to like, hey, let's go
somewhere nice, like, can'tina lorra. Yeah, Texas Roadhouse, dude.
Famous Dave's.
Famous days.
Perfect example.
Macrody Grill.
And yeah, but by the time, like, you're sweating for a solid, another 20 minutes after
you shower.
Yeah, the whole, yeah.
Or especially if you have laundry they're bringing with you to do.
Now you've got to lug this laundry out.
You're so sweaty.
Yeah.
And you're going with girls.
And, like, they have makeup on for the first time in a week.
And it's like, who are you?
Holy cow.
All right.
Catherine Hansen, I'll take it.
So, dude, that was such a fun.
feeling. It was awesome. Like, well, everything about it. But it's like just the anticipation of going
on a two four or when you first scheduled it and you look at the girl's schedule, like, who is
going to be on this two four? How about that? Talk about like going back to high school, clicky politics.
Like, hey, can we switch? You want to switch your two four because we're all going here.
Like, okay, I kind of want to be your friend too, though, you know. I don't go. But yeah, people are
like always trying to sync up their times off. And you have a crush on her. So we're going to try to
go two four together.
Yeah.
I think that was a big difference.
Like my first couple years,
I'm trying to sync up two fours with girls.
And then by the end,
it's just be with the brother.
Whoever's there is there.
Yeah.
Hang with the boys.
Or just,
I would love it like time to myself.
Crazy thought, huh?
Yeah.
You post up a Panera, didn't you?
Oh,
some.
Yeah.
Vintage Paris, dude.
Yeah, that was nice too.
That was my spot.
Oh my.
You know,
you mentioned that you had a bad night of sleep.
And I'm really sorry about that.
I tried to relate.
I tried to do.
what's called empathize with you.
And honestly, I've forgotten what it's like.
Couldn't.
Honestly, dude, it's amazing.
Like, the level up that you get when you have cozy earth bed sheets, cozy earth pajamas,
cozy earth, whatever, that makes it to where it's like,
I know that I'm going to sleep well every single night.
I'm going to be so comfortable.
And we're sponsored by cozy earth, which is so convenient because it's that easy to talk about
them.
This week, I know you have nasally stuff.
So I'm going to keep talking.
I'm just going to watch that stuff to say when you're done.
Do you?
Okay.
Well, this week you had sent me, we were talking about Cozier than a voice memo.
Yeah.
And I wish I should just like find the actual transcript.
But basically you're just like, dude, I truly love Cozier.
Like it's like, we're not making this up.
When we are like, Cozier is awesome.
They're the best.
It's so fun to be sponsored by people that we love, we love to talk about.
So Cozier.com, they have it all there.

I was like, they're so good.
I'm already on the site.
Let me just peruse around.
And here's what I did.
Here's what I suggest you guys do is sort by like fabric or like materials.
Okay.
And I just sorted by the viscos from bamboo.
Yes.
I know that's what I like.
That's what I want.
So I got a pair of joggers and like a cream colored crew neck.
Alabaster.
Crew neck.
Okay.
Yeah.
Fun neck sweatshirt.
And there, well, I don't know.
Have you gotten it yet?
No.
I feel like sometimes they're a little bit like thicker, like heavier, which is kind of fun.
It feels like, it's heavy.
It feels high quality.
It feels high quality.
Yeah.

Upward season.
We're in full swing.
How's team doing?
Dude.
Okay.
So Bow's game got canceled on Saturday because of the, you know, ice scraperless snow.
The big f.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
but Haddy still had her game Friday
and Haddy was playing a team
so had he lost the first week
I think they lost 36 to 18
like they got doubled up the first week
and honestly I didn't think we were that bad
but like we had one bad quarter basically
that just kind of derailed them
and then we hear that this week
we are playing a team that beat the team
the fall or the previous week
by 50 points
that's not good
all right they try to keep it fair
like try to keep all the teams fair
how they stack this emails
but I think both coaches
kids are really good. And so that's like automatic. Obviously if you're like coach,
you're like the kid, your kids on the team. And then one kid, one girl like did an
eve like her eval, she didn't score very well, but she's actually the best player on the whole
team. Same bagged. Yeah, truly. And so I'm like, I'm not going to tell had you this or the other
kids this, but I'm like, hey, you're going to lose by 90. Yeah. And so I'm, I'm,
I'm now in my phase of coaching where it's dangerous, I'm dangerously cocky about how much I know about
coaching because now all of a sudden I'm like, I might be kind of a good coach, man.
As the assistant coach for this girls basketball team, it's third graders, we did not win.
We lost by four points.
And the other team was like very good.
Dude.
Tell me.
Good job.
Thank you.
Hats off to you.
We were yelling.
I was trying to teach them, you know, hey, every time the other team shoots at you,
if we're on the bench, we're yelling shot so that they know to go get the rebound.
And so all of a sudden, dude, we were down.
by like six points, eight points a half time,
and all of a sudden it was tied up.
We were like, oh my gosh.
Crowds on their feet.
Yeah, we had the ball down two
with like 30 seconds left.
Get the ball in Hattie's hands.
They, for whatever reason,
one of the girls did like try to pass it to Hattie.
It went over her head,
but I was like, I don't know if that was the best move.
That wasn't going to work out either way.
So anyway, but it was awesome.
It was like the first time I'd ever felt like,
whoa, kind of competitive as a coach.
The first week was just like,
just go out there.
figure out how to get down the court, you know.
And now you're scheming up.
Now it's an O's. Actually, you run a three, two defense.
Yeah.
We did do all sorts of different.
Trying to teach them all these different things.
And I'm always like, Hattie doesn't even know all the basics yet.
Like we got to, some of these girls don't know what a rebound is.
Other girls are really good, though.
So anyway.
Any more practices with Bo?
Yeah, we had a practice on Monday with Bowie and the Cowboys.
And we had one kid, sweet kid.
man. His name is Winston. He's awesome. He's got, he's kind of a, kind of a goofy look. I mean,
he's a sweet kid, but I described it in the group meet at Gulf Shores get away. I was like,
yeah, one of the kids basically had his own Scott Sterling moment. Yeah. You've seen Scott Sterling
video at the time where this kid just gets pummeled. You know, Winston at one point, we were
doing like a passing drill where literally we had a square and we were just passing from one
person to the other. Winston wasn't looking and the kid just nails him in the chest. And so he
starts like try not to cry.
Like it's okay, buddy, it's okay.
Wow, crying for the chest.
Crying for the chest.
Dang.
And then I think we were doing this like rebounding drill.
Like where all I was doing was like, I'm going to shoot the ball, purposely miss it.
And then you go get the ball and you shoot it.
You get two shots.
Try to make it yourself.
And so I shoot it, miss it.
Winston goes and grabs it.
He goes up to try to shot.
He's too low under the basket.
Oh, no.
Chucks it up.
It just right back boomer.
rang into his face. Once again, just like, not completely like bawling crime, but just like
trying so hard. Oh, I remember that as a kid. Like, oh, buddy. Getting hurt and you're like,
I'm not going to cry. Yeah. But you kind of have, it's like you have to a little bit. Yes.
You like a little. It's like, yeah, it's like, tears are coming out of my eyes. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Poor guy, man. And there are a few other. This is too. Those are the two, like, those are actually
the third and fourth one. I think the, the first one, like, he was just sad that he couldn't. We were,
We were playing a game where I was like the monster trying to steal the ball from them dribbling.
But if they turned around and put their back to me, I couldn't steal it.
Oh no.
Monster's broken.
Yeah, trying to teach him like, hey, if you like guard the ball.
But he was like, I can't dribble like that.
I'm like, hey, buddy, it's okay.
You haven't ever practiced.
Hey, it's all right.
Yeah.
So he starts like getting kind of sad about that.
I'm like, we're going to get you some wins, Winston.
We're going to have some shots go in and then he just chucks it into his face.
But anyway, it's fun, man.
It truly is like the longest two hours of my week, but also the most fun.
Like, it's like, oh, man, this is a long hour.
Like, it does not go by quick, you know.
But they're sweet kids.
And one of the moms, one of the kids was gone this past week.
And she emailed and she's like, he's loving basketball every single day when I pick
him up from school.
He says, today, basketball day.
So that's encouraging to hear.
That's really great.
So anyway, yeah, Bose.
Yeah.
So we knew Friday night that Bo's game was going to get canceled Saturday morning,
but Bo had already been asleep.
And so Bo wakes us up at like 7 a.m.
Fully dressed with his shoes on.
He's like, I've already eaten breakfast.
Oh.
Buddy, I'm so sorry, but it's been canceled.
That sucks.
So bummer.
He was really sweet about it.
And he had a fine attitude, but it was still kind of a bummer.
He was so excited.
Dang, yeah, he really wants to do it.
Bo is like classic boy.
Like some boys are more than others, but like he's a gear guy.
Like, yeah.
He wants to wear a.
headband every week and like he's got a wrist band.
Accessories. Yeah, he's an accessory guy.
So he's always noticed in other people's shoes and stuff like that.
I like that. That is a guy thing. I feel like.
Yeah. Anyway. So it's a blast though, man.
We have a lot of fun with it and how do you start to enjoy it more and more?
So.
Speaking of crying after injuries, I don't know when the last time.
Well, there's two places that even as an adult that I still kind of want to cry if you get hit.
One's the nose.
Yeah.
And the second one, when's the last time you guys took a good shot?
to like the tailbone.
Like it's been a while, but I could still remember like if you like land like, like,
you know, playing a sport or something.
Yeah.
That is one of those like you, you clench your cheeks and it's like you could feel it somehow
all over your body.
That makes a grunt man want to cry.
It's like a spine.
Yeah, just like flies up your spine.
Oh yeah.
I hate that sensation.
See, that's why I'll never take a charge because I don't want that.
Don't take the risk.
No, dude.
Don't land on your tailbone.
Yeah, I don't know.
I don't know if I can ever truly say.
I felt that.
I can't think of a time.
It's definitely not been recent enough
that I can like, oh yeah,
I know that,
I know that feeling.
Was it specifically basketball
that would happen?
I think I was playing football
when we were like,
play touch football or whatever
and like go up for a pass
and like,
you know,
you don't land on your feet.
You just land on your heine
in that like sensation.
I feel like it just shoots
like to your toes
and your head,
like your whole body.
It's just like,
oh,
ah,
ah.
You just like clench.
He was like,
have to.
Yeah.
Plinch your cheeks.
You have to like reverse that feeling.
Oh, the tailbone's the worst.
Yeah, it is pretty bad.
Do you remember the wind knocked out of you playing football or anything like that?
I got a concussion one time.
Really?
Got the whatever that is knocked out on me.
Having the wind knocked out of you, it's like, before it happens to you, it's like, I don't
really know what that means.
Then it's like, oh, yeah, I know what that means.
Oh, it's scary.
It happens that you get it.
It's like, wow.
I can't breathe.
I couldn't breathe for 30 seconds.
30 seconds?
Is it really?
Oh, yeah, I don't think I've ever had that happened to me.
Yeah.
I had to happen.
The time that I could think of is I was on the monkey bars in our play set as a kid.
And I just fell, like, swung and fell on my back.
Like, perfectly on my back.
And I was just like, I'm going to die.
Yeah, it's over.
This is it.
And then, yeah, it comes back.
But it's like, it's like, it's terrifying.
Yeah, it's like before you know that things exist.
Yeah, you think you're dying.
One was like the first time I had sleep paralysis.
I was like, what is this?
I still never had to happen.
And then two, yeah, I didn't know you could get the one knocked out of you.
So you just think you're dying.
Caleb Schiffitzel hit me.
Sixth grade Mighty Mighty Mighty.
Shevitzel, dude.
Went on to play college football, so, you know.
Okay.
It takes a very good player to knock the window to me.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Chevitzel.
Wait.
I still remember it.
Are you getting sleep paralysis regularly?
No, this happened a lot, like in my 20s, but no, not anymore.
That means that you wake up, but you can't move?
Is that right?
Yeah, it was like, literally my eyes, like, wake up, my body who can't.
Wow.
Don't people see, like, creepy stuff, too?
I never had the, like, demonic side of sleep paralysis.
I wasn't, I wasn't seeing Nephilim or anything.
That's the side of misnism.
I'm especially scared of.
I'm like, I don't want this to happen
because I don't want to like,
people have just like,
demon look at things like over them
and they can't move.
Yeah, I've never had that.
I've just been just like,
woke up,
it's always a nap.
Wake up from a nap and you can't move.
Oh, it's always a nap.
Interesting.
For me, and just go back to sleep.
Dude, speaking of dreams,
I wrote something down in my dream this week.
This is great.
And I wrote it at the top of my note
so it's all in like bold, all caps.
You know, like the title of your notes.
So it just like looks a little funnier.
So the middle of the night,
So right before bed that night, I'd been looking at, we had uploaded a pickleball video of
Isaac playing singles.
And it wasn't like this crazy video where he got first or, you know, she's got a normal
video, but it's performing really well.
And so I think I, like, made a mental note of that before going to bed.
And I guess that seeped into my dream.
So I write down, timing, you're going to want to keep note of this too because I'm going
to need you.
Great.
I wrote down a skit to open a YouTube video where I come home like an, looking like an
alcoholic and barge in dressed in overalls.
And I say, boys, one of us is playing singles.
And Scott and Isaac are like, Dad, I don't want it.
I don't want it.
I'm like, that's too dang bad.
The singles content's performing well.
I'm going to flip this coin.
And one of you boys is playing singles in Mesa.
And then we flip the coin and that's the intro to like the video.
I like that down like 4 a.m.
That was a dream of yours?
That's awesome.
I think, you know, had the idea like in the middle of the night.
Yes.
Yeah.
Dude, I have to do that.
Of course.
I have to do that.
That's the intro to the next singles video.
We have to do more singles content.
That is so fascinating how amazing we think our ideas are like that in the middle of the night.
Fake alcoholic, yes.
There were so many times where I wrote stand-up notes where it was like, oh, oh, my gosh.
Nothing's funny in that.
Chappelle's going to want to buy this.
Then I read back, I'm like, there's not even a joke there.
Yeah, yeah, that was borderline an observation.
Yeah.
That's great.
So you're going to do it?
You got to get your jug?
Yeah, probably.
I need to get some overalls and a nice.
Yeah, I don't know.
Alcoholic look to myself.
Right.
Boys.
How long are the boys in China?
I think they're in China for like three-ish days.
And they'll go to Malaysia for like three days.
Oh, that's right.
And then Scott will come back home.
And I think Isaac and Matt might stay out there a little bit longer.
And Gallivant?
Galavant, maybe to Japan.
Maybe some more places in Southeast Asia.
Love it.
That's fun.
Wow.
Yeah, they're having fun.
Just go.
Why not?
Yeah, boys are having fun.
Single.
Get after it.
Yeah, why not?
That's fun.
Any part of you, like, man, I wish I were there.
Are you very content?
Dude, it was crazy being on, like, I've taken long flights.
I've been Australia multiple times.
I've gone to Russia.
You know, like, I've done this before.
I went to Asia last year.
But when you're the one staying home, it's unbelievable how long that flight is.
Really?
Just like knowing that like, all right, around the time I went to bed, they boarded the flight.
I've slept.
I've woke up.
I've had lunch.
It's 4 p.m. in the afternoon.
And they still haven't landed yet.
You know, it's just like, how long is it?
How long is it?
Yeah, I think it was like 17 hours or something.
Oh my gosh.
Really?
And I think when it's like you flying, it's like, I don't know, I always could find a way to look forward to that.
Like, ooh, you can make anything fun.
I can sleep for a little bit.
I'll download this.
I'll be so productive.
I can, yeah.
But when it's like, I don't know.
Like, I've lived, I've slept and lived so much today.
That's crazy.
And they're still just flying.
Oh my gosh.
It feels forever when you're not doing it.
I don't think I've ever truly experienced claustrophobia, but I feel like I would.
I think that that's so long on a plane.
Yeah.
Yeah, you've got to move around.
Yeah.
They have a basketball court on there, though.
They do.
Yeah.
It's like a just for feet where you can kind of try out new shoes and it's a half-sized basketball court.
Oh, what a memory.
Holy cow!
That's wild, dude.
Just for feet.
Yeah, we had one.
I don't remember what the name of the, oh, that's going to bother me.
Then I don't remember the name of it.
But like, oh, they had like that little half court basketball.
Yeah, try your shoes.
Holy cow.
Back in the daytime and like our mall in Olathe, they had.
Yeah, like not even a half court.
I mean, maybe, maybe like the size of like the lane is how big ours was.
Yeah.
It was tiny.
Kind of like just for squeaking around on.
Just for squeaking.
Really, but they had, they had balls.
And like, really, I just went in there to like,
hey, it'd be fun to just go shoot the basketball in a store.
How crazy is this?
Yeah.
It was like this like amazingly, uh, what's the word?
Like, just, just rare thing.
Like, it's just so, so different.
Novel, novel concept.
Well, it felt wrong to play basketball in a sophisticated story like that.
So awesome, dude.
Holy cow.
That's awesome.
Yeah, that's what those international planes are like.
Yeah.
They've all got little.
basketball courts hit him. That's why Isaac went to go.
Isaac did look like a giant next to that Chinese guy.
Are a lot of Chinese guys short?
I didn't honestly notice it that much.
Like not what I thought I was going to notice. Like wow, even I'm towering over people.
I didn't really notice that when I was in Asia. Yeah. I never really noticed height.
My kids are both so short on their basketball teams. Yeah. I just, I never knew.
You don't see height.
maybe because I'm above them. I don't know.
Yeah. Don't look down.
Tyne, what are you about to? You done anything?
Honestly, not really. I was thinking back. I was like, I haven't had that interesting
of a week. But I made some music with some friends on Tuesday night.
Made a little music.
As in just like, me and my friends, the Scots, we try to write music and sometimes it turns
into something. But I don't know. It's more just like kind of a jam night.
that we have gone on every week.
It's been really fun.
What's your role?
Usually kind of like producer.
If we're trying to record something.
Kind of, yeah.
I'm like the,
we're in and I like enhance things.
Can I get some reverb on that?
I do the main frame stuff.
Yeah.
But it's a lot of fun.
We just laugh a lot and sometimes make songs.
Pretty cool.
I haven't heard about these Scots.
Yeah, they're fun.
Their dad knows John Mayer.
Whoa.
Kind of crazy.
He's just, he's a big music.
guy has a guitar pedal company. It's kind of cool. Really? Yeah. I have a friend who has a guitar pedal
company. Are they Scottish also? Oh, is that, are you just saying their nationality is Scottish? Yeah.
It's Dave Brown. Is that who it is? Oh, yeah. Dave Brown.
Dick Brown? From Dublin. But yeah, that's been fun. I also wrote down, like, I haven't had that
interesting a week. So just like, if you're out there, listen to John Van Dusen, the artist. Oh.
I can't stop listening to this guy. And all of his.
albums are really good. I think, did you mention him before? I think I did. And he's not very popular,
but yeah, he's so good. It's, what kind of music is it? It's a lot of kind of rock slash pop,
but it's all very, the lyrics are all really like interesting and deep and I don't know. Yeah.
It's, it's just good. Sweet. If you're out there, if anyone's listening to this, check him out.
If, if you're listening to this, check them out. Or if you know of someone listening to this.
If anyone in your life is listening to this, tell them to check it out.
Just for the next time you're hanging out with the Scots.
The Scots?
Some lyrical inspiration for you.
Love.
Yeah.
And wisdom.
Okay.
The two cannot have both.
Bath.
Closer to your dreams.
Continuously running can bring you.
Think about that.
Will you actually make a song for that?
That'd be nice.
I'd be awesome.
I kind of want to now.
You're going to make it and people are going to actually
like unironically love that and let's do it all the time that sounds fun i mean the last time i'm
successfully the only time that i've successfully made a song is when i stopped caring about the lyrics
so maybe that would help yeah lyrics are right there for you yeah i might i just might do that
two cannot have bath sorry the two cannot have bath the two cannot shower together that's wild
yeah you ever take a shower with wisdom don't do it without love not the same love love and wisdom
I have a plea. Well, Brad and I both have pleas that we need. We need some things from the ghosties.
Okay.
I'll share what you need and then you share what I need.
You bet, man.
Can somebody buy Brad's house?
Please.
Can somebody do it? Just, okay, good prank.
Yeah, let's not buy Brad's house prank. Enough's enough.
The market's like the slowest has been since 95 prank.
That's a good prank, guys. You did it.
Hilarious.
Bradd I laugh a lot about this off camera.
All of us fell for it.
Yes. We think this is hilarious.
but like that's good. Okay, that's good.
You know that.
You could buy it now.
Yeah, please. Anybody.
Or I'm starting to entertain renting as well.
Rent it now, guys. Pranks over.
You got some people that want to live there for a non-permanent time and pay permanent amounts of mortgage to me.
Rent on.
Come on. Make it happen.
What's my plea for Jake?
I also need them to buy something.
Guys.
by the aura
by the orr
you're close though
oh not yet
by the
by the
J. Tripla media
is the first ever
yeah
the LLC
you want to buy
Friday pickleballs
Friday Pickleballs
but
where are they
they're not on our site
oh my gosh
that's right
they're at Richards
Dick's sporting goods
yes only online for now
really though
yeah but they're officially on the
website.
As of today.
It is going to look that up right now.
That's the, it's going to be fun to see.
The category, it says Friday Labs
Paddle, which is like the name
of our LLC.
So we're emailing them about that.
Like, hey, can you take off labs?
I think that's confusing.
People don't know.
That's what we're called.
But yeah, we're on Dick Sporting Goods website right now.
We're going to go in stores soon.
But Matt, our CEO was like, all right,
tell your friends to like buy this.
And I was like, how important is this?
Like, how many favors do I need to call in?
He was like, it'd be nice if some people bought it.
Like, as soon as it's live
the site.
So I was like, I was curious.
I'll talk to the ghosties.
Like how much, it's more beneficial, long term.
You're probably not making as much money per sale at Dix, but if you get in there,
the volume will go up.
Yeah, like their second order.
Got it.
It'd be really helpful.
You always hear about that on Shark Tank.
It's all about the second order.
Really?
I feel like they say that.
Like, they're like, yeah, like Walmart is committed to, you know, it's like, hey, Walmart
commits to things, but if it doesn't prove.
Let's see how it sells in Walmart first.
Yeah.
So, anyway.
No, no big pressure.
But if you're already kind of thinking about getting one,
get one from Dick's sporting goods website for the next couple weeks,
show them, show them what the ghostsies are made of.
Holy cow, there it is, right there on Dick's Sporting Goods.com.
It's pretty cool to look at.
It is cool.
There's your picture.
There's the white body, too.
Fever's, originals.
ORA's going to be on there soon.
So they're going to have the full lineup.
The aura.
Orabaca.
Yeah, you got it.
Well, but you can just get a Franklin Geo-Pickleball paddle for 1999.
Franklin Gio?
Seems pretty good to me.
What in the world is a Franklin Gio.
Gio, dude.
Man, it's fun.
Yeah.
Everyone knows the,
you should do,
maybe you have like a progression of
pickleball
fandom.
Like everyone starts with like this tiny,
like terrible paddle
that can barely really work
when you look back on it.
Yeah, kind of the stages of like
your paddle technology.
or just paddle, you know, purchases.
You don't care about it at first.
And then all of a sudden, it's like, it's all, it's everything.
Yeah, you know every single one.
It's definitely not me that's bad.
It's just my paddle's not good enough.
It's funny talking to tennis players who will, you know, who've converted to pickleball.
They're like, pickball is just funny.
He's like, in pickleball, you hear people like, well, yeah, I mean, this guy's got
an illegal paddle there.
I mean, it's tough to win his hands about it.
He's like, I played tennis, you know, in college, I played pro.
You know, I was like, I never heard a tennis player say, well, it's because of his rack.
it's just not a thing in tennis and beneficial to us that people really care about the paddle
are using totally so it's good to be selling paddles um i got a haircut the other day in the
australian open whatever open tennis was on tennis is they're unbelievable it's kind of amazing how
much ground they cover in singles yeah they're like how cow did you see that like million dollar
thing they did at the australian open no i don't think so i'm not too familiar with it Scott was
telling me. But I guess
just like random people
who either attended the Australian Open
or were even just
like college players. I think there were a couple of pros in there.
They got put into this like huge
singles bracket. The winner gets a million
dollars, but it's only one point
at a time. Like Riley's scoring
winner take all. So just like... Like sudden death.
Yeah. All right. Me and you got paired up
first. All right. You're serving.
You flip for it? Like who... Yeah, probably.
But like your serve has to be in or else
You're out of it.
So I may not have to buy.
You serve it in the net.
I moved on to the next round.
And they're doing it,
they're doing it like during TV timeout.
So like you're in front of all the people
of the Australian Open.
They're doing it.
They're giving away a million dollars,
but they're not even publicizing it.
Yeah, I didn't know about it.
I don't know how popular it is.
That's awesome.
From when I heard,
second place got nothing.
It's like that final match is like so important.
And yeah,
I went to this guy who is not a pro or anything
like changes life.
Like there were definitely people in the tournament
better than him.
Yeah.
But, you know, it's only one point.
The right matchup or whatever?
Yeah.
Holy cow.
So he just won a million dollars, just like that.
Would your strategy be play it safe, or would your strategy be go for the kill?
I have to size up who I've got over there.
Yeah.
But I think you've got to go for your serve.
Yeah.
At least you could say, like, all right, at least I didn't like, whimp out, like, got to play confident.
Yeah.
Wow.
Well, that's excited about Dick's sporting goods.
Yeah, thanks.
So goes to you either buy a paddle or buy a house.
Yeah.
I mean, they're about the same price.
Do whatever you want.
Yeah.
Oh my.
Good times.
Good times.
All right.
Should we wrap this episode up?
I need to blow my nose,
among other things.
Yeah,
let's wrap it up.
Timon,
you want to do a little AI
to this song real quick
and see what we can figure out?
That'd be nice.
Sure.
You know,
people are like saying,
hey,
I'm not listening to a podcast
anymore because Timon's not singing.
I will say.
I'm going to have a bit of a route
with my music,
my podcast.
I've been flipping on.
Just the best of Ghost Harder's music
2025. Every now and then, yeah, and I just listen to you guys. That's fun. Happens every now and then.
Yeah, it is funny how you go in ruts. Like, are you a Spotify guy? Yeah. Yeah, every once in a while,
it's like, I listen to, you know, two minutes of a podcast, but still in like the recent.
And so I'm looking at like the seven or eight or nine or whatever, like suggestions. I'm like,
I don't want any of those. That's not what I want. That episode bummed me out. I don't want that.
You know, it's like, so honestly, dude, I've been DJX and like crazy. That's a good idea.
Yeah.
It is really nice.
Yeah.
If you don't want to make a decision or like, can't,
because there's all the time that I can't think of what to,
I mean, John Van Dusen, obviously.
Yeah.
Don Bend Duson.
Unfortunately, DJX, he is, he's pretty,
he does a lot of the same beginning songs for me.
He does.
Really?
Like, starts with the same stuff.
Yeah, you got to really get into it before, like,
is random.
Yeah.
So, but to be fair,
the ones he plays are like my favorite ones.
So it's like, all right.
It takes a lot before he'll, like,
suggest new things you haven't heard.
Yeah.
Yeah.
All right, Timon.
You got something?
Maybe you don't get too
on the nose with the genre.
I have no idea what to search.
Let's see.
I taught the kids what genre meant the other day.
We're playing this game on my phone.
It was like basically like five and ten on your phone.
Like name three things in five seconds.
And it was like music genres.
He's like, what's a genre?
You're like, it's French.
Yeah.
I think we failed to say it so far.
But we are officially.
sponsored the entire podcast by Main Street Roasters.
Oh, yeah.
So hopefully we got like some good old banners in the, you know, album art and everything by now.
But either way, we're pumped to increase our sponsorship with Main Street Roasters.
The official.
They are the official sponsor.
Title sponsor of Ghost Roast Podcasts.
So.
You know, I remember learning about the different, like, that it's a big deal to be presented by versus brought to you by versus sponsored by versus powered by.
We should look into that.

We are power brought.
There's different things.
There are different parts

Hold on, hold on, hold on.
I like camp, can, can, can, can, can't, can continuously.
I'm going to say, write me a song with these words of the chorus.
Great.

I enjoyed it.
Kank, can't.
That's what you knew.
Time was trying to find some desperate.

Every sign is hurry
Every voice has weighed
It's late that I can't outrun faith

I want the fire without the coal

Crot Tyrone being right
I've seen truth get buried in a fight
I've held untight
I've let things break
Some lessons only come with ache
I'm learning how to lose my grip
Let go up pride
Loosing this fist
Maybe peace comes quiet
Think closer to your dreams
Can't in you

Not just on the prize

Not every story
I'll walk this out
Step by step
By step with what I know
And what's left unsaid
That's probably fine
That's probably fine
I loved it, Taman
I thought both versions
For the exact same
I couldn't even tell a difference
That's fair
He doesn't have a trained eye
Both could not have bad
Tamin I'd say
clearing it out.
Yeah, couldn't have been any better than that for sure.
So that's great.
I liked it time.
I thought you did great.
Thank you.
There were times where you found it more than others.
I'd agree.
Fair?
I would agree.
Yeah.
I'd say that first verse felt pretty nice.
After that,
didn't feel quite as nice.
Felt less nice.
Felt less nice.
I love that.
Sorry about to practice, guys.
All right.
Hey, thanks for listening, y'all.
Hey, what about review of the week, man?
Oh, my gosh.
Wow.
Love and wisdom to the bad.
Sorry about that.
Review of the week.
It's all right.
I should have my pulled up.
I got a screenshot in here somewhere.
Someone said us.
Did you really?
People send us nice emails sometimes.
Oh, they do.
Hello at ghostwriters.
Life.
Man, shout out Maddie Deidrely.
She's been trying hard to get us on the giffy keyboard of all the gifts.
That is nice.
And they said we are not eligible.
Really?
I don't know why.
Huh.
If anybody out there wants to tell me, I think, I mean, whatever, the review of the week is just people being kind.
People being kind to me about the house, encouraging to me.
Thank you for all the kind words.
I posted, I was like, hey, I just need some help here.
If anybody knows anybody or wants to like it on Zillow, please do.
People are doing nice things for you.
So, I don't think I've read this one yet from.
Spubby Nubby. Does that sound familiar?
Spubby Nubby? Maybe.
They say, wish I'd listen sooner. Five stars.
Yeah, I think I read that one.
Really? Hey, it's worth listening or reading again.
There was a part of the end about Chau Maine from Panda.
That didn't sound familiar to you.
I think so.
All right. Spubby Nubby.
Hey, we need more reviews. It sounds like. Come on, guys.
Come on guys.
Thanks for leaving reviews on Spotify, too, though.
Appreciate it.
Yeah, truly. Yeah, five stars. Five stars everywhere.
Five stars for, five stars for,
Jake will.
That's right.
Is that what you rock?
Actually,
Musinex.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And I'm,
I'm kind of,
uh,
I know it's silly,
but I think Musenex,
the actual mucinex.
I don't want the thing that's like,
compare to mucinex D.
That's the exact same thing.
Same ingredients.
For whatever reason,
Musinex specifically,
I'm like,
that stuff works.
I have,
I've seen their commercials.
With those,
like,
cartoon germ guys.
Little mucous bugs.
Mm-hmm.
Not for long.
See, yeah.
All right.
That's our reviews.
Review of the week is mucus.
Pretty powerful.
We'll see Wednesday.
We love you guys.
Peace.
Bye.
Bye.
