Starting point is 00:00:00 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.
Starting point is 00:00:09 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.
Starting point is 00:00:22 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.
Starting point is 00:00:34 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...
Starting point is 00:00:47 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.
Starting point is 00:01:02 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.
Starting point is 00:01:31 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,
Starting point is 00:01:46 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.
Starting point is 00:02:05 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.
Starting point is 00:02:28 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.
Starting point is 00:02:42 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.
Starting point is 00:02:49 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,
Starting point is 00:02:58 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.
Starting point is 00:03:05 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.
Starting point is 00:03:24 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.
Starting point is 00:03:39 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.
Starting point is 00:03:49 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,
Starting point is 00:04:05 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.
Starting point is 00:04:45 What happens? It is good to be. Oh, just sick. Are you? Yeah. Okay. But I'm fine. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:50 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.
Starting point is 00:05:05 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.
Starting point is 00:05:14 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?
Starting point is 00:05:25 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
Starting point is 00:05:57 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?
Starting point is 00:06:12 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.
Starting point is 00:06:20 Okay. Hey. Does it look off? Shut. Screen. Do heaky shut. All right. It's fine.
Starting point is 00:06:26 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.
Starting point is 00:06:38 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.
Starting point is 00:07:02 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.
Starting point is 00:07:11 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.
Starting point is 00:07:20 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.
Starting point is 00:07:32 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.
Starting point is 00:07:45 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.
Starting point is 00:07:58 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.
Starting point is 00:08:07 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.
Starting point is 00:08:18 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.
Starting point is 00:08:27 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

Starting point is 00:08:44 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
Starting point is 00:08:54 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.
Starting point is 00:09:07 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.
Starting point is 00:09:32 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.
Starting point is 00:09:45 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.

Starting point is 00:10:15 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.
Starting point is 00:10:33 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...
Starting point is 00:10:42 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.
Starting point is 00:10:52 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.
Starting point is 00:11:00 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.
Starting point is 00:11:08 That's good. Chef. No way. Bureau. That makes sense. Chaufer. That's obviously French. Critique.
Starting point is 00:11:19 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.
Starting point is 00:11:34 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,
Starting point is 00:11:46 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
Starting point is 00:11:56 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.
Starting point is 00:12:11 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.
Starting point is 00:12:20 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.
Starting point is 00:12:41 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.
Starting point is 00:12:50 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.
Starting point is 00:13:04 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.
Starting point is 00:13:21 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?
Starting point is 00:13:47 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.
Starting point is 00:14:13 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.
Starting point is 00:14:24 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.
Starting point is 00:14:37 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.
Starting point is 00:14:49 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.
Starting point is 00:14:58 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.
Starting point is 00:15:20 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.
Starting point is 00:15:34 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.
Starting point is 00:15:43 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.
Starting point is 00:15:56 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.
Starting point is 00:16:11 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?
Starting point is 00:16:27 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.
Starting point is 00:16:49 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
Starting point is 00:17:13 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
Starting point is 00:17:34 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,
Starting point is 00:17:49 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...
Starting point is 00:18:02 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.
Starting point is 00:18:16 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,
Starting point is 00:18:31 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,
Starting point is 00:18:43 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
Starting point is 00:19:04 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
Starting point is 00:19:25 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.
Starting point is 00:19:41 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.
Starting point is 00:19:56 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.
Starting point is 00:20:07 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,
Starting point is 00:20:25 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.
Starting point is 00:20:41 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?
Starting point is 00:20:54 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.
Starting point is 00:21:05 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.
Starting point is 00:21:12 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.
Starting point is 00:21:21 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.
Starting point is 00:21:31 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.
Starting point is 00:21:40 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.
Starting point is 00:22:04 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
Starting point is 00:22:39 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.
Starting point is 00:22:59 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,
Starting point is 00:23:12 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.
Starting point is 00:23:21 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
Starting point is 00:23:46 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,
Starting point is 00:24:06 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,
Starting point is 00:24:17 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.
Starting point is 00:24:37 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.
Starting point is 00:24:52 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.
Starting point is 00:25:15 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.
Starting point is 00:25:31 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?
Starting point is 00:25:45 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.
Starting point is 00:25:58 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.
Starting point is 00:26:23 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
Starting point is 00:27:10 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,
Starting point is 00:27:21 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,
Starting point is 00:27:29 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.
Starting point is 00:27:35 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,
Starting point is 00:27:42 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.
Starting point is 00:28:06 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.
Starting point is 00:28:34 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.
Starting point is 00:28:50 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,
Starting point is 00:28:59 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.
Starting point is 00:29:11 And he's eaten all. the beans, all thousand of them. And Hattie says, no, don't eat those. That's the official title sponsor of the Ghostrunners podcast.

Starting point is 00:29:54 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.
Starting point is 00:30:11 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.
Starting point is 00:30:26 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.
Starting point is 00:30:42 Yeah. Did you make a stinky? Yeah. Make a stinky. Did you make that stinky? Love and stinky. Oh. The two cannot have both.
Starting point is 00:30:53 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.
Starting point is 00:31:16 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.
Starting point is 00:31:26 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.
Starting point is 00:31:39 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
Starting point is 00:32:15 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.
Starting point is 00:32:46 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.
Starting point is 00:33:03 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?
Starting point is 00:33:17 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.
Starting point is 00:33:25 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.
Starting point is 00:33:38 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.
Starting point is 00:33:48 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
Starting point is 00:33:55 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.
Starting point is 00:34:03 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.
Starting point is 00:34:16 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.
Starting point is 00:34:32 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,
Starting point is 00:34:42 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
Starting point is 00:34:49 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.
Starting point is 00:34:59 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?
Starting point is 00:35:09 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,
Starting point is 00:35:21 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.
Starting point is 00:35:39 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,
Starting point is 00:35:52 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.
Starting point is 00:36:02 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.
Starting point is 00:36:09 He goes, Ice scraper. Don't. Don't. What is it? What does that do? Yeah. What are you trying to scrape ice?
Starting point is 00:36:19 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.
Starting point is 00:36:33 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.
Starting point is 00:37:03 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.
Starting point is 00:37:20 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.
Starting point is 00:37:32 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?
Starting point is 00:37:50 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.
Starting point is 00:38:09 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?
Starting point is 00:38:27 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.
Starting point is 00:38:45 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
Starting point is 00:39:28 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
Starting point is 00:40:02 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.
Starting point is 00:40:21 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.
Starting point is 00:40:31 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,
Starting point is 00:40:42 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.
Starting point is 00:40:50 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.
Starting point is 00:40:58 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?
Starting point is 00:41:10 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.
Starting point is 00:41:20 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.
Starting point is 00:41:29 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
Starting point is 00:41:57 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.
Starting point is 00:42:23 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.
Starting point is 00:42:39 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.
Starting point is 00:43:19 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.
Starting point is 00:43:37 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.
Starting point is 00:44:08 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.
Starting point is 00:44:27 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.
Starting point is 00:44:42 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.
Starting point is 00:44:57 Boarding for flight 246 to Toronto is delayed 50 minutes. Ugh, what? Sounds like Ojo time. Play Ojo, great idea. Feel the fun with all the latest slots in live casino games and with no wagering requirements. What you win is yours to keep groovy. Hey, I won!

Concerned by your gambling or that if someone close to you, call 1866531-2-60 or visit Connexonterio.ca. We can make it through. We can make it work.
Starting point is 00:45:30 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.
Starting point is 00:45:41 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.
Starting point is 00:45:48 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.
Starting point is 00:46:06 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.
Starting point is 00:46:18 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.
Starting point is 00:46:29 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
Starting point is 00:46:57 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.
Starting point is 00:47:15 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.
Starting point is 00:47:30 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.
Starting point is 00:47:58 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.
Starting point is 00:48:37 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,
Starting point is 00:48:46 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.
Starting point is 00:48:56 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.
Starting point is 00:49:07 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
Starting point is 00:49:17 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.
Starting point is 00:49:31 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.
Starting point is 00:50:02 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.
Starting point is 00:50:17 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.
Starting point is 00:50:28 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
Starting point is 00:51:02 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.
Starting point is 00:51:11 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,
Starting point is 00:51:19 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.
Starting point is 00:51:27 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,
Starting point is 00:51:44 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.

Starting point is 00:53:20 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.
Starting point is 00:53:29 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
Starting point is 00:53:41 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
Starting point is 00:53:55 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,
Starting point is 00:54:24 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.
Starting point is 00:54:46 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.
Starting point is 00:55:03 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,
Starting point is 00:55:15 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.
Starting point is 00:55:31 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.
Starting point is 00:55:49 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
Starting point is 00:56:21 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.
Starting point is 00:56:40 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.
Starting point is 00:56:56 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
Starting point is 00:57:25 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.
Starting point is 00:57:46 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.
Starting point is 00:58:04 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.
Starting point is 00:58:24 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.
Starting point is 00:58:39 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.
Starting point is 00:58:53 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.
Starting point is 00:59:08 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?
Starting point is 00:59:28 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.
Starting point is 00:59:45 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.
Starting point is 00:59:56 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
Starting point is 01:00:05 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.
Starting point is 01:00:12 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,
Starting point is 01:00:21 ah, ah. You just like clench. He was like, have to. Yeah. Plinch your cheeks. You have to like reverse that feeling.
Starting point is 01:00:32 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.
Starting point is 01:00:48 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?
Starting point is 01:00:55 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.
Starting point is 01:01:11 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.
Starting point is 01:01:22 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.
Starting point is 01:01:34 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?
Starting point is 01:01:47 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
Starting point is 01:02:01 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.
Starting point is 01:02:10 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
Starting point is 01:02:23 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.
Starting point is 01:02:40 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.
Starting point is 01:03:05 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.
Starting point is 01:03:22 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.
Starting point is 01:03:33 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.
Starting point is 01:03:53 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.
Starting point is 01:04:08 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.
Starting point is 01:04:23 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.
Starting point is 01:04:34 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.
Starting point is 01:04:44 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?
Starting point is 01:04:58 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?
Starting point is 01:05:12 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.
Starting point is 01:05:26 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.
Starting point is 01:05:40 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.
Starting point is 01:05:54 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.
Starting point is 01:06:10 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.
Starting point is 01:06:27 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.
Starting point is 01:06:43 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.
Starting point is 01:06:57 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.
Starting point is 01:07:24 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
Starting point is 01:07:51 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,
Starting point is 01:08:06 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.
Starting point is 01:08:19 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.
Starting point is 01:08:39 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?

Starting point is 01:11:21 Guys. by the aura by the orr you're close though oh not yet by the by the J. Tripla media
Starting point is 01:11:39 is the first ever yeah the LLC you want to buy Friday pickleballs Friday Pickleballs but where are they
Starting point is 01:11:49 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
Starting point is 01:11:58 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.
Starting point is 01:12:09 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.
Starting point is 01:12:21 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.
Starting point is 01:12:34 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?
Starting point is 01:12:47 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,
Starting point is 01:13:02 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.
Starting point is 01:13:17 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.
Starting point is 01:13:32 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
Starting point is 01:13:46 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.
Starting point is 01:14:01 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
Starting point is 01:14:19 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
Starting point is 01:14:52 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
Starting point is 01:15:11 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.
Starting point is 01:15:28 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.
Starting point is 01:15:37 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.
Starting point is 01:15:51 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?
Starting point is 01:16:00 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.
Starting point is 01:16:13 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.
Starting point is 01:16:27 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,
Starting point is 01:16:37 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.
Starting point is 01:16:45 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
Starting point is 01:16:53 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,
Starting point is 01:17:16 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.
Starting point is 01:17:34 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,
Starting point is 01:17:46 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.
Starting point is 01:17:57 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.
Starting point is 01:18:10 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.
Starting point is 01:18:23 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.
