What is this name? Like a Vikings backup or whatever. What is that guy's name? The girls all know him. Like Rachel knows his name, which is problematic. He's a backup? Disney Prince, QB. Bathard?

Maybe. Of course, that didn't. Vikings backup. Oh, Sam Hartman. Oh, no. Look of what Sam Hartman looks like. Whoa. Yep.

Yeah, that's what I imagine. Beautiful. Yeah, that's exactly what you look like right now, bro. No, no, that's what I'm going. No, no, that's what you look like. like right now. Wow. I mean, every once in a while, it's like, hey, 5%. Right? Good looking guy. If you're not, if you're not 5%, you're 100% kind of thing. It's like Sam Hartman. Good looking. You're rolling? Yeah. Is this the episode? Yeah, this is it. We're going. Sam Hartman.

Who was it? Who told us? Was that Braden Parsons? If you're, yeah, 5% or all the way? Yeah. So I'm 5% for Sam. Yeah, I will happily acknowledge that this guy is. My gosh. Stunning. Yeah, girls left snow in the comments. Uh, yeah. is one of the only quarterbacks you know of named Sam Hartman, Sam Hartman and Tom Brady. Also, do you find the word is attractive is not the right word, but like,

do you think that Jeff, the winner of Beast Games season one? Oh, he's striking. He's amazingly beautiful, dude. Right? I look this guy up. He's striking. He's a silver fox. I don't know how old he is. He's probably in his 50s by now. His whole face is silver. But it's amazing how beautiful this man is. Whoa. Yeah. Yeah, what are you saying right now? Time and

describe it. Just, it's hard to put into words. I got to say it. His personality matches it too. That's what's a sharp guy. He's a sharp guy. He's a serious guy. He looks at you in your, like, into your soul. It's like, this guy kind of looks like a silver version of the guy, Justin, who I met in Ohio who like dated Miley Cyrus and he wouldn't really. So it's like I get, I understand why. Sover Miley Cyrus guy. Yeah, I had I, I don't think I paused the episode, but I did I did ask Catherine. I was like, hey, am I wrong or is he like super good looking? Like I don't... Pausing would be problematic too, probably.

Like I was like circling. Yeah, I was like screenshoting and like, you know, cropping. Zoom in. You don't need to enhance. Anyway. So Sam Hartman and Jeff from... And Jeff. And you now.

And yeah, the ghosties really enjoyed the, you know, sick, don't care, hair look last week. So we're just going to keep giving it to you guys. That's what you like. Yeah, it's good. I think you're a couple of like douses of water away from looking just like Sam Hartman, I think. Yeah. And you got to grow out a beard.

Beard's going to be tougher. Have you, have you ever tried? There's been a couple like Christmas breaks where you really let yourself go. Uh-huh. And it's like, it still feels pretty, pretty sparse in the, uh, the mandible area. See, but look at, look at Sam. He's got some, he's got some, you know, deforestation in his fores. forest.

Yeah, that's a good point. Yeah, his, his grass is splotchy. No one's noticing. Also, shout out to Andrew Shudy. Sam Hartman kind of looks like a more chiseled Shudy. So Shudy, get in the wait room a few more times, and you'll get there, baby. Good job. As I'm looking at Sam Hartman pictures now, looks like he's in, this is probably a combine outfit,

but it made me take it the Pro Bowl. Do you watch a Pro Bowl? I wouldn't miss it for the world, brother. Dude, I turned it on. maybe on like Monday or Tuesday. I don't know. For whatever reason, I was like, maybe there's college basketball on tonight. So like Tuesday night, there was like a replay of it.

And I was like, this isn't the Pro Bowl. Like, surely this is not it. I just straight up missed it. Had no idea. Not that I would have watched it, but it's like, oh, no buzz, huh? No buzz, no promo. Did you see any video from it? Not even a highlight.

I don't know what happened in the Pro Bowl. Unless this is not the Pro Bowl and this was some other weird scrimmage thing. It's like flag football, first of all now. You know that? Okay. Yeah. And it. looked like there were a thousand fans there genuinely.

Like it was like in a, in a, it looked like it was an elite pickleball complex, like, you know, closed off, closed off like dome kind of thing, like a practice. They were in a bubble. A practice complex essentially is what it looked like. And there was like no room for fans. But I mean, there was like sold out. But there was like no, no bleachers. Wait, I did see something.

I saw they ran a tush push in flag football. And I just swiped over that. My goodness. You know what else is crazy? When we're recording this, tomorrow the Olympics starts. Yeah. No buzz. No promo. Wait, really? Yeah. Winter Olympics tomorrow. By the time this comes out, people probably know that. But imagine yourself four days ago. Yeah, you didn't know about it either. Yeah, I'll give you a break. I will say my family, my wife loves the Olympics. For whatever reason, not a sports

officiato by any means. But she's like updated on Lindsay Vaughn's ACL. I don't think she knows. He's walking. Lindsay's walking. Thank God. Maybe Catherine just loves America. And so she's just like, I love watching us win, you know? Yeah, so she's a summer Olympics girl. I was going to say, it feels like we don't win as much in the winter Olympics, but we do not. You know what? This is our year. Yeah, who's our guy? You know, it's funny, even when we do really well, I feel like it's always like, not just fully American, like Apollo Anton Ono. Yeah. That's not us. Anton, yeah, Anton. Anton. Anton. Anton. Anton. Anton. He's a Korean Hartman. Right. Combo. Like Michelle Kwan. Michelle Kwan. Yeah, okay. Not our girl. Yeah, not our, not our, not our.

not our most pure bread. Yeah, yeah. But also, like Tara Lipinski? Lipinski? I don't know. Where's that from? I don't know. You know what, but we're the melting pot.

So we're all American. That is nice. So no matter who wins, we win. We win. And with that, roll it. Uh, uh, oh, ooh, I think this tight beat means that it's going down

with some random thoughts in white meat, me too. Midwest best friends eating fast food on repeat. So come along. Have some fun and go ahead. Get on your feet because it's a ghostrom's podcast. Happy Monday. Presented by Main Street Roasters. We are, InStreet's podcast.

Presented by Main Street Roasters. Use promo code GRKC for 10. It always will be. Yes, baby. Forever. Gosh, they're awesome. I'm drinking it right now. Jake, you put Main Street Roasters in your Chick-fil-A coffee cup?

Yep. I just love their cups. Yeah. You like Chick-fil-A coffee? The thing is, is they, I, I, what happened? Talk to me,

I forget, and I go, original coffee, and then when I get home, I'll put a little cream or something in it. I forget the original comes out this color.

This is not even vanilla. What? This is original. What? Do you tell me that their iced coffee is just garbage? You can kind of see it, but yeah,

ORG, ice cough. So it's just cream and sugar right there. It's too much. Okay. I got to get the apartment off my computer.

I made it my wall paper. I don't care how long he's on my computer. What a beautiful man. He does look like he could be in a, like a live action remake of, he could be guest on. Yeah. Or something like that. Who's the, uh, charming. Flynn. Flynn, Ryder. Flynn Ryder. He's something I know of. That's neat. Good. Anyway. If, if this episode's anything like my morning has been so far, we're going to have a great episode. What have you done this morning? I have been, you know, know, some days I'm like a rising star in the realm of fathers and husbands out there. Today, I was like a Hall of Famer, dude. Thursdays is when our kids and Catherine go to CC. They're like co-op for homeschool. And so it's crazy. They bring like lunch boxes and they have to leave by eight.

And a lot of times, Haddy's not even out of her bed by eight, you know. Okay. And I woke up, I should have woken up earlier. So maybe that, maybe I shouldn't be a hall of favor for this, but I'm just a generational talent. Uh, woke up at 7.30 and just I, I did all the breakfast. I made Catherine's coffee. I made, uh, all the lunches, you know, and we did it with, with no stress or no like barking. Like, it was just like, no barks. It just worked. And I, I packed the, the van for Catherine of all her stuff. You know, I put, I fill up her coffee, put it in there, filled up her water, put it in there. She was like, look around. I was like, do you know where's, do you know my water is? Yeah, in the cup holder.

Check the C.H. Yeah. Check the old C.H. And she's like, I couldn't do without you. And then she left. And then I cleaned up. I cleaned up everything. Yeah.

So I just felt good. Yeah. It was just like, it was one of those times where I was just like, I'm on top of it. Like I didn't stop moving, you know, but it wasn't like a bad way. It was like literally fluid. Like shut the, shut the refrigerator. Go grab something else. Okay.

Those things need to go in the sink. Boom, boom. Yeah, exactly. It was just, it was money all over the, place. When are you getting moods like that? I'm always trying to be like, how did I get here? Like, was it sleep last night?

Was it like, what, what is causing this extreme, like, positive productivity? Dude. How do I do this more? If anything, I probably have gotten less sleep this past 24, like, this last night than I have ever. Like, not ever. That's not true. In the last 30 days.

Like, I've been trying to, like, be very conscious of my sleep. I've been trying to get seven hours. And I, like, forced. That's why I didn't wake up until 730 because I forced myself to get seven hours. I was watching freaking beast games. And then after Beast games, that Auto played this Beast Extreme thing? You heard of this? I don't know about Beast Extreme.

Yeah? No, dude. It was one of those things. Like, Catherine went to bed. I was like, I mean, I'll see what happens here. And it's, you know, 23 minutes later. Jimmy does what Jimmy does. Yeah, 23 minutes later, I'm like, well, I got to see if they make it out of here.

Well, I hope Jennifer gets back together with her ex. And then all of a sudden, it's over and another one plays. And I'm like, dang it. Now, what's this guy going to do? And I was sucked in. The Beast Extreme. is like, well, the first one I saw was two people, two strangers were underground and like this bunker kind of thing. Oh, this is like Mr. B's YouTube videos. Yes, it was very, it was like, it might have

honestly, I had that thought. I was like, is this is a YouTube video? No, I think it is. I think it is. Um, yeah, because it's like underground for like, like, a hundred days. And if you can stay there, then you get a half million dollars. And so there's like, all the social dynamics of these people and whatever. And I'm like, you got to stay. You got to make. But then they also had to like, every single day, every 24 hours, at some point in the 24 hours, an alarm would buzz. I've seen this YouTube video.

Oh, you have. Keep going. Keep going. Yeah, an alarm would buzz. And so they both had to put their hands on a sensor every 24 hours within a certain amount of time. I remember getting annoyed at one of them. One of them was slacking.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I was annoyed with both of them, because one of them would go to the bathroom, which is on the far side of the bunker. Like, and so, and then like, yeah, whatever.

Anyway, but they made it out. And then all of a sudden, a pilot. You've seen this one? The pilot and the private jet. Were they all off to put their hands on it? Oh, I haven't seen this. Okay. I stopped. I didn't control myself. I was like 10 minutes into I was like, I'll see it later. But like, I would do anything for a free private jet. Wouldn't you? A two and a half million dollar jet. It would be awesome. There was a, he's a pilot. It's not like, if I got a two and a half million dollars, I just have to pay somebody. He's just like, I just got to worry about gas. That's true. Like when a pilot's

given a jet, that's like us. being given a car. Yes. Two and a half million dollar car. Like if Bo gets a car right now, it's like, dude, cool,

but it's going to depreciate and value a lot by the time you can drive this thing. Yeah. Private jet sounds awesome. I don't, I've never taken one. I don't know how hard it is to like book or how expensive,

you know, gas ain't cheap. Gas ain't cheap, but you know what? You can leverage your jet. Hey, you take you on my jet. You pay for gas.

Yeah. Yeah. Like all you got to do is pay for gas. All right, it's $85,000. No problem. I think we talked about a little bit on the podcast when that one pickleball team wanted us to run all their socials and they kept dangling the private jet in front of us. No, remind me that.

There was, yeah, just one of those like major league pickleball teams. They really liked us and wanted us to do everything for them in 2026. And one of the things, you know, it's like, so you would come with us to this, this and this event. You would run our socials. You would do a like a mini documentary. They wanted like a hard knocks version every week. And they're like, and of course you would be going to and from in our private jet with us. Is this the St. Louis team?

Yes. Like the billionaire owned? Yeah. That makes sense. Because like you have to be so rich to have a private jet. Yeah. To own? To own and to be able to operate.

Yeah. Yeah. You would lose money quick. So they dangle that in front of us. And we never really knew how legitimate of an offer that jet was. Like that feels like the shiny thing. You got to drive to St. Louis and then you have a private jet. Sick.

Three and a half hours. And then we can go anywhere we want. And I'm not not working out. But yeah, that was the closest I got to maybe one day riding in one. was then sending a proposal over? I predict it'll take you nine years before you ride in a private jet.

I don't think Tyman and I will ever get there. Timon might if he's still with you, Jake. Okay. Yeah. If we're still together, we're still doing our thing. You're still 5% together. I think you can make it. But yeah, I don't know. Somehow you're going to.

I think those are good on. Yeah, I think that's probably fair. You feel like that's a good number? Yeah. Like there's just the slightest chance for me, Jake, nine years. it. Yeah, you're going to have some connection with somebody. And yeah, you're going to own St. Louis shock. Is that the name? Yeah. Yeah, you're going to, you're going to buy them out. I'm just not remembering. I think Scott rode in some, maybe it was just a tiny plane.

But remember when he went down to play pickleball with Matt Holiday, like three or four years ago? Yeah, like Oklahoma. Garrett Deere. Yeah, I think they flew down. I don't know if it was private or not, or maybe it was just, yeah, small. Yeah, for whatever reason, that seems like it sucks. Like, I've written in small before. Small sucks. Yeah, it's just like, yeah, a little puddle jumper kind of like. Yeah, no air flow like super hot, just baking on the tarmac until they turn it on. Like I'm sitting there before the pilot gets there and you know when the pilot gets there in that plane. It's like, oh man, he says there he is. He's moving his chair. You got room. You got room. You kind of feel it

rocking. You go. You kind of feel it rocking as he's standing up the steps to get in. It's like, oh, there he is. Yeah. Yeah, you are the co-pilot. Like you're in the cockpit. It's, It's pretty bumpy. It's not like an enjoyable flight. So would a private jet also be bumpy? I don't know. I'm sure you get nice enough. Yeah.

But I bet they're still dangerous. I know like most of like airline like casualties, I think, are from like the small like private jets rather than like the big commercial ones. Huh. More susceptible to. Is that right? Yeah. Or maybe that's like less regulated.

Yeah. You know, I'm sure Southwest is doing checks on them every, you know, every hour. Dude, speaking of Southwest, I went to book flights. We got a big Phoenix, you know, PPA Mesa, pickupball Terminic coming up. Me, Isaac and Time are going to go down there early. We're going to be there all week. The rest of the crews joined in later.

Scott said he would love to come, but he also does not want to get divorced. His words. Fair. Bring her with, you know. I go to book the flights a couple days ago. I'm like, man, this is kind of fun. Like choosing my seat on a Southwest airline.

How about this? How do they do it? How do they, like, did they charge you more? for certain seats now? It feels pretty standard. Yeah, the first four rows are like premium, and it's $79 to upgrade to those. And then there's some that are more preferred,

but the leg row, everything's exactly the same. They're just further up on the plane. Okay. I don't know what. And those are additional like, what, 25? I think so. I just now got A list now that it doesn't matter because I'm not automatically a a boarding group.

It doesn't mean anything. So I got A list at the worst possible time of human history. What does it, Does it give you any perks? Like, is it like, oh, you get, you know, free upgrades or something? What I think I understand is like now instead of like Petitschee being boarding, you know, because they have the different fare rates, you know, basic choice, choice plus, choice extreme plus goals. So they still have that even though they're.

Yeah. Okay. They still have like the four divisions. Yeah. I think that kind of determines your boarding group. So I think with A list, I'm guaranteed boarding group three through five instead of six or seven. Settle down, Diamond. With Amex Platinum, $400 in annual credits for travel and dining means you not only satisfy your travel bug, but your taste buds too.

That's the powerful backing of Amex. Conditions apply. Dude, just last night, I witnessed a 65-year-old man do it. I was at church. You throw up. No, but I was mad at him. I was at church doing some work on my computer during choir practice. like and uh cool and yeah i was just watching the choir and it was kind of fun like watch choir orchestra

and um the worship pastor who has no idea what six seven is it's like yeah i think we're gonna have either six like six to seven uh baptisms this upcoming week and you know there's all these like old like 85 year old women being like yeah that's amazing praise god baptisms wow there's a party in heaven this guy in the back go like this praise god Praise God. Six or seven children, enter God's kingdom. We could not be more excited. Wow.

And no one was laughing at him. Shame on you. Those are a huge... What would you call this motion? Those are huge... Huge bibles. Huge bibles. I was up in the balcony, so I saw everything.

I saw him. I saw no one reacting to it. I saw him looking around trying to like nudge people to react to it. He was wearing a middle school, like, shirt. So I wonder if he's like a staff member at a middle school or something. Okay. So at least he's not like just randomly knowing the middle school trends. Yeah, he didn't like research it.

Yeah. And if you're from Olathe, it was a Chisholm Trail middle school. It's church. So nice try. That's that's time is middle school right now that he would go to. Yeah. If you were middle school in Olathe. I did.

We'll get back to my Southwest story here a little bit. but, you know, I was back at Michaela's saxophone lesson a couple days ago, playing pickleball with the kids. Oh, yeah. Yeah. And I told the story a few weeks ago when that one girl was like yelling at me. I got paired up with her again. And I was like, what are you doing?

What are you doing? I was like, hey, we're going to have a better. I'm going to hit a hard today, okay? And so anyway, I'm just trying to bomb. I'm just trying to win her over again. And at one point, the score is 6, 7, 1 or whatever. She looks over them. She looks over me.

She goes, hey, what's the score? And I just, I gave her the, the, the, the, tiniest bibles. I just do that. You can't even see you. Yeah. And she just nods and serves it. It felt like we did have a small little moment there.

It was nice. I was like, yeah, I didn't go crazy. You were huge bibles. Did you consider? I didn't give the other kids an opportunity to hear me say six, seven. Yeah. I'm only going to do this once. Yeah.

Hey. Hey. Score right now. Yeah. Serve on. Just do it. Just do it like with your. just with the eyebrows.

Oh, man. It's too bad that they were celebrating baptisms. That guy's just going nuts. Yeah. Yeah, whatever. And it wasn't like, it was like a praise God. Like, hey, let's celebrate this. But it was also like they were talking logistics.

Like, here's, you know, we're going to sing this song. And then we're going to take a break for, we're going to have six to seven. So it wasn't like it was like, let's pray. You know. But it was just. like, dude, just be cool. Just chill, dude. Anyway.

So I'm booking these flights to Phoenix and, yeah, I'm like, this is kind of fun. I'm picking a seat out. And there's something about it that, like, feels familiar. I'm like, did the Southwestways used to do it this way? I don't know, whatever. I'm booking it. I get done. And I go to, like, my account, I go to my trips.

And I look, and sure enough, I've already booked flights to Phoenix. Oh, no. Like, do I have dementia? I would have done this in the last, I don't know, 10 days or so. What? Just didn't remember it. And like, nothing really clicked while I was booking it. Like, yeah, this should look really familiar.

You did this recently. Did you go through with, like, completely booking the first or the second set? Paid it all. Paid, paid for both of them in cash. Yeah. So, yeah, just quickly got a refund. That does. Really?

Yeah, you just. Yeah, that was a moment. I was like, what's wrong with me? So does Southwest still have, like, did you get the money back completely? Or is it like a voucher? Refund to method of payment. Really? Okay. Yeah. That's nice.

Because for a while it was like you could only... Like sometimes it was this LUV voucher. It was like, what's LUV? Yeah, it was like you had to use it within a year, I think. And it was only for, yeah, flying, like, unless you do points, then you get it just refunded from what I understood. But that's nice that they're just going straight back now. Just take the money back.

That's why. Yeah, that was a real wake-up call. I do feel like, once again, I'm sorry for, what's it called, a broken record at this point, but there was this thing called Google inbox back in the day. It was the greatest, you know, AI algorithm powered, whatever inbox for Gmail. And it told you like when your Google flight or your Southwest flight was coming up or like that you booked it or like I do feel like sometimes Southwest flights are hard for me to find. Yeah.

Either searching. I think the Gmail search function is terrible. Yep. I also think that Southwest sometimes it's like my upcoming. flights. It's not on there. And then like two days later when it's like, okay, I have a flight in a day. It's on there now. Yeah. It's like I have to go find it in Gmail, find the confirmation number, and then look it up. And then it's like, yeah, there it is. It's like, well, why wasn't that an upcoming flight? My big frustration for years, for the entire time I've flown Southwest, it's been

so important to check in at the right time. And they did not send you a push notification to your phone when it was time to check in until the last, I don't know, three or four months. They start doing that. And now you never need to do that again. But they did not do that forever. I was like, that would be so easy. Every customer would be so thrilled to get a notification. Right. That's mean that they didn't. It's like, it's like you have to be, you have to be ready.

Gotta be thinking. I'm also so impressed, dude. Like there's sometimes back in the day, back when, back when Southwest did the, you know, check in thing. It was like, I checked in 30 seconds after. Maybe literally I was refreshing it and checked in three seconds after. There's no way that guy checked in before me. Like you just judge those people. You're like, that guy's not responsible enough to do this.

Yeah. How do you do that? You know? And he's not even getting like the early bird check in. Like he's in the, he's in the B6. And I'm B12. I don't know how they do that.

We don't have to worry about it anymore. Is there a tech, timing? You're cool. You're techie. You're not techie like this, though. Yeah. I want to know for a few different things,

Brandon Faulkner of the world. Okay. People like that, the techie guys. I want to find a cool assistant of mine that can help me do stuff like that. Like some programming thing where I can like, hey, do this, this and this, and then check in for me. Like, kind of like a chat GPT agent mode or whatever. Yeah.

Because once again, I hate to be a broker record about this as well, guys. Retail Rebel these days, the auctions are in the inopportune times for me. And I'm a sniper when it comes to auctions. I don't bid until the last like three minutes or so. Weird Al's song about eBay also talked about that. Yes. And they do it where like if you bid within the last. last two minutes, it like resets to two minutes.

Yep. So the idea is like, I try to bid with like two minutes, five seconds, then all a sudden, yeah, we're good. But like basketball practice has gotten in the way. Church is getting in the way. That sucks. Dude, uh, had these games getting in the way. And so now I'm like, can't buy anything unless I can't be a retail rebel. Yeah, can't be it. So, but I think there's got to be a computer program. It's like, hey, at this time, go and do this bid for me, kind of thing. You know what I remember there being some, I mean, this is years ago. I'm sure it's gotten way better. Some application, some program called like, IFTT, T.

It was like, if that, then this. I love that. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yes. Yeah, maybe it's gotten advanced enough for you can do that thing. Yeah. I remember, I said I love that. I love the idea of it.

I tried it like a few times. It didn't work very well for me. At that point in my life, I was like, I don't really have anything going on. I don't do a whole lot. So it's not going to write a comedy script for me. So what, they can't edit a video for me. And that's all I do. So, yeah.

I don't really use email. I don't really use email. did get into your hot keys, auto hot keys. Auto hot keys. I got into that. Auto hot keys. Hot, hot, hot, hot, keys. I got really into those when I was at CERner.

Like, it was like, hey, you could do this mundane task that would take three hours. Or I could spend two and a half hours like programming auto hotkeys and like fail, you know, that many times and then it eventually works. Save a little time. It was way more fun, though. It was like, way more fun than just like. Give yourself a problem to solve. It was basically data entry.

So it's like, all right, I can figure out how to do this. It was pretty. I was becoming quite the tech guy. Otto Hotkeys. I like the sound of that. Otto hotkeys. So you're a Mr. Beast guy now. Dude, except, have you watched the recent episode?

I have not. Tonight's Beast Night in this household. I'm going to say this right here. I actually saw something on Reddit. The only feedback without giving anything away is it just not enough is happening. They're drawing everything out. They're making it too soap opera. making it to like reality show like let's let's care about these people which is great I do care

about them to an extent I I cried a little bit in this episode almost it wow it felt like it was coming and I stopped it got man stop it stop it stop auto hotkey command F stop cry I don't feel anything but man it was just it was drawn out and it was like all right kind of like last episode I mean it felt the same way as last episode we're like all they did was the cubes right That was two episodes ago. Yeah. It's like, play some more games. Do you know what you'd like the Mr. Beast 2 channel?

It's all just behind every episode. There's a behind the scenes of that episode. So the behind the scenes of the Cube episode was fascinating. Like, how do you get all these things for all these people? That would be interesting. Yeah. All the comments are like, this is better than the actual episode. How did they?

Well, what's the answer? I mean, just spending so much time, money and resources. I mean, they've got his friends that are like kind of the fake call center, but then they've got a real call center. of all these people, and they've all got spreadsheets, and they're tracking down everything. Is this a level one? We already have it.

Level two, this level three. Okay. I mean, they just did so much pre-planning. Sorry, explain to everyone you're talking about. Yeah, that's a good point. In season one, they did this little game where they put hundreds of people in these cubes and only one person would stay in there and they're eliminated. But while you're deciphering who's going to stay, who's going to go,

you could pick up this phone and call and ask for anything. That was the problem. Anything you want that helps make your decision, helps make you more comfortable, anything you want, call and ask for it. And I'm sure they learned their lesson in season one. Like, that was insane. So this time they only did it with, what, probably 13 people. And still, they were getting, like, slam with stuff.

So you could call and ask for anything. I mean, they asked for some easy stuff, like bean bags. I'd like a pizza. Yeah. I'd like, can we get some a deck of cards? We're going to play a game. Was it the first season? Did they bring a horse in there?

Yeah. Did I make that up? Yeah. Brigh a horse. Yeah, they bring all sorts of stuff. One, one, like a million dollars cash. I'm trying to think what else. So basically they just have, they've got people all over the city that are already at Walmart

Target, fill in the blank. They're ready to drive things to you. Okay, so it's that close to a metropolitan area. I think they're in Greenville, North Carolina. Got it. And then they also have, but these Walmart and targets are staying up open for them. Okay. Because it's the middle of the night.

Yeah. They've got all this stuff like in just supply rooms, just like, yeah. They've got sellers of Catan. If someone asks for that, they can have it to them in 30 seconds. It's like an Amazon fulfillment center, basically. Yeah. For it's crazy, the amount of goods they have ready to go. They've got like a lot of people in the service industry, they have them like on call all night.

They've got a magician, a juggler, a masse, a chef, you know, they've, a tattoo artist. That's awesome. Because somebody got, no. I think somebody got a tattoo. And somebody got a haircut. Yeah. Yeah. So all these people just have to stay up all night in case Mr. Beas calls you and says you have to come to work.

Wow. And then on top of that, they had a, they had a, Super Bowl ring. They didn't have one on them, but like, if someone asked for that, we know how we can get one in the middle of the night. We have, we don't have every celebrity in the world, but we've got this, like, cluster of celebrities. If they want anything close to that, we can get them this.

Like, if they would have asked for Kevin Hart, we could have got them Kevin Hart. What? Dude, I think he spends crazy money to do all this. But even that is like, that, that, even if you, like, we're like, hey, we're going to spend all the money in the world on this. I would have a mental block of like, they're not going to ask for Kevin Hart. Why are we going to 18 different steps to try to get Kevin Hart? Like,

just as a just in case. The possibility of them asking for so many of these things are so low. Yeah. We don't need to go to that much trouble calling all these magicians to like find one. Like, oh, they put in so much work. I would say surely if I was Mr. Beast, I'd be like, when I'm announcing it to the contestants, I'm like, you can ask for whatever you want from a magician to like even maybe Kevin Hart. Maybe Kevin Hart if you wanted to.

Yeah. And then just so it's worth the time. Yeah. You kind of force their hand a little bit. Like the things that you took the most pain to get, you got to drop some of his. Yeah. That's a good point. Yeah.

Some of you were looking a little stressed. Maybe a massage would feel like that. Yes. Yes. And I wonder that's like the TV magic kind of thing. I wonder how many things they asked for. They're like, ah, we can't do that. Okay.

Don't be crazy. And we're just going to cut that out. Or, hey, we don't have that, but we do have a masseuse that can come. So good looking Jeff from season one. He was still in it at that point. Yeah. He asked for, he wanted to get on the phone with Elon Musk. What?

Because, you know, his whole thing is trying to cure his son's to and he's like, I don't know, Elon seems like a smart guy. He's got this Starlink. He's got all those brain stuff. He figured to be a good guy to talk to. That's why he didn't like have a great pitch. He's like, I don't know. I mean, Tesla and brain, I don't know.

He said that like multiple times. But they couldn't get Elon Musk on the phone for him. So they cut that out of the episode. Really? That's interesting, though. Yeah. Yeah. You know, Jimmy's like, dang it.

Somebody, of course they were going to ask for you. I got Bezos. I had Bezos ready to go and he didn't want to touch Bezos. That's pretty cool, man. So yeah, go and watch all the behind the scenes. Because I think they're fascinating. Yeah, that does sound fascinating. I don't know.

Because, yeah, like last night's episode, I feel like I looked over at Catherine, she was falling asleep again. I was like, come on, wake up. Out of it. Anyway. But yeah, big fan of East Guy. Yeah, whatever it is. I don't know.

I don't like, they always in on a cliffhanger. I'm like, just once. Come on. Can you just not? It just reminds me of like, oh, yeah, this is how it used to always be. We always had to wait a week. Man, it was the worst. Oh man, we are presented by Main Street Roasters.

Big time. Sponsor, brought to you by, presented by full on here to you by. You know, people talk a lot about the main benefits of coffee, which are the taste and the warmth, the aroma. They don't talk about the street benefits of coffee. You know what? For whatever reason, man, I love the color of Main Street Roaster's coffee. When you make the right ratio, dude, it's like this perfect color. it's got just a little bit of a lighter color on top,

and it makes me happy to look at. It makes me happy to watch it, be poured into the cup. You've got your main benefits. You've got your street benefits. And then? Roaster benefits. Roaster benefits.

Which are things like 401K, which you can add to, because all the money you're saving. Time in, we're in the middle of an ad read. Sorry. So our title sponsor, and he's sneezing. There's nothing to sneeze that when it comes to Main Street Roasters.

Mainstreezeze roasters. Maine that's right That's up to say Mainsty's roosters You're probably thinking Hey 10% That's too good to be true No it's not

I watched one episode of Extracted with my mom last week. And? Fine. I was into it. I think I was more into it than Rachel was. Okay.

Because it's like any reality show. You put yourself in the situation. What would I be doing? It extracted us is a great job. They picked some losers. Dude, they did. Or like, like, like put

the wait did you watch season water season two season one episode one is all i've watched oh see i've only watched the new season okay okay so season one episode one they've got people so this whole game if you remember brad kind of explaining it teams of three one person gets dropped in the middle of the wilderness with nothing really um a canteen of water and the other two stay back well there's one team it's like these three women and the one that they sent into the woods is like a part-time clown what part-time and there yeah i know that's what's hilarious it's like what she is a little clowning. She clowns on the side.

And they're even like the other women are joking like, oh yeah, this is out of her comfort zone. This is going to be tough for her. I'm like, are you trying to win? Yeah. I think you're not trying to win here. And maybe, maybe they choose who gets to go. Like maybe the producers choose. Because season two, like there was a girl that's one survivor twice.

And she's, she's staying back. It's like, I think if I were trying to win that much money, I would put her in the, in the game. Yeah, that is a fair assessment then. There was a kid in episode one. So his dad played in the NFL. His mom, I think, was also some sort of athlete. She seems pretty intense. So he's this 18-year-old underneath his name.

It says model. So he's an 18-year-old model. And when he's saying goodbye, like he's about to get in the helicopter, he's doing a thing. He's like, I forced my parents. They wouldn't do it. But I tried so hard to get them to sign a contract that says they will not extract me no matter what. I mean, he just comes in so cocky.

And you can just tell like, I hate this kid. Oh, my God. Gosh, I hope he gets eaten by a grizzan bear. Because just like his whole aura and everything, which is like not a likable kid. And then it got so, but the way he was like talking to his parents through the camera, like other families were like embarrassed.

And then his parents like took off the headphones because they were embarrassed. Wait, why? And he's begging because he loves to fish. And so they got him a care package and had a sleeping bag and had matches and it had fishing. and the fishing line was tangled up.

And so he's just being a brat. And he's just slaying on the ground cursing. Oh, really? Who put us together? You know, what don't? Yeah. And so, they're so embarrassed. And so then he's begging.

He's actually the first person to get a fire started. And he's still begging, like, get me out of here. Get me out of here. His parents are just like so mortified. So yeah, there's some losers in that first episode. That's basically what happened in the second season, too. Like this Jin Z kid was just like, like 24 hours or less. He was just like, get me out of here, mom. I'm done.

He wasn't like screaming. He was more just like so defeated. After 24 hours. Yeah, 24 hours. There were three people almost left in the first 24 hours. I'm not trying to act like I have the mental fortitude to do it for 30 days. But I think 24 hours. We're probably all sleep for half of it.

I'll be fine. I'll explore the land. I'll be petting that grizzly bear. To be fair, that same kid did see a grizzly bear. Really? Yeah. So maybe he was just freaked out. and tired or cold or whatever, but I don't know.

There was this one guy. I think they sent their, they sent their dad. It's one guy's dad and one guy's uncle. So, you know, it's like two like 20, like millennials with like a, you know, older guy in the wilderness. And he just keeps drinking the lake water. And they're just, they can't believe it. The uncle does?

Yeah, like the uncle slash dad. He's like, you know, in the ones. Yeah, he's just so thirsty. He's like, yeah, probably shouldn't do this. But I'm going to go get some lake water. and then they're just like, Dad, stop! What are you doing?

Because they gave him matches. They gave him everything he needs to make a fire. They're like, boil the water. And he's like, I can't get this fire going, but boy, I'm thirsty. I'm going to go get a drinking lake water. And then, I mean, like, two minutes later, it cuts to him just vomiting all over the woods.

They're like, we told you, dad. Gosh, stop drinking lake water. So the first episode, Cliffhanger is like, it looks like three people are all about to leave right now. Oh, really? The clown, the model. the puker. Apparently, I mean, I don't know that much about season two, but I know that Luke said that

he was a big fan of season one. And so they applied to go for season two. And he's like, season two, they made it way harder. Oh, really? Like, I think supplies-wise, they didn't get nearly as much stuff. Yeah, the first box of supplies seemed pretty generous in season one. Okay. Yeah, I was like, here's an entire fire starter kit and a knife and a sleeping bag.

Pretty much everyone got everything you could ever want. Because this season two, they, they like, draft for who gets what. I see. So yeah, it's a good show. My dad called me. He's like, we've been watching it. We're obsessed and he's like, I got it all figured out. He's like, I'm going to go into the woods.

I'm going to send you and mom back and you guys take care of me and we'll be just fine. I would love to watch that. And now I watch it and I think about my dad. I'm like, oh, yeah, he would be fine in there. Yeah, and I wouldn't even feel that bad if I didn't get him, you know, some of this gear. Like, he's fine. He does have some mental toughness, I feel like. I think so, yeah.

He's a salesman, you know, he's used to rejection every once a while. And I think not a lot of people grew up and just like that, you know, farmer kind of mindset of just like, you know, you don't go to bed, you don't eat until the job's done. You know, there's a lot of just like micro-suffering probably when you're farming

livestock and they can get out at any point and got to feed them constantly. Yeah, if the bears come, what did he say? I think in his episode that he was on, he said he's gotten like a hundred-fist fights as a kid he estimated. You know, a little one-two of black bear. Black bears are pretty docile. I think you're fine with a black bear. Yeah, right. Black-fight

back. That's what they say. Really? Have you heard this? Yeah. If it's black, fight back. If it's brown lay down. If it's white, say good night. See, I'd heard those last two. I don't think I knew that black was fight back. Fight back. Is it fight back or it's something back?

It's definitely. Yeah. I think it's like show them your act. Go after them. Attack. And I don't know. Let's look. If it's brown, flush it down. It says, I was asking, if the bear is black. fight back is what it's, huh, first thing here. And I wonder what it means by fight back.

Like, ha ha ha ha, ha, ha. Yeah, surely not. Like, let's try to put your dukes up. Let's try to feel how fuzzy their fur is here. We have a, Dodge, Dodge. We have a never posted Backseat Boys clip about that rhyme that got pretty racist, so we didn't. It's hard not to. It's hard not to, yeah.

It was pretty funny, though. That's pretty funny. It's not on the internet. I forgot you guys used to do clips for a fake podcast. We did. We got like eight in. So Zach, it's funny. I started out always being the one that's like, we got to make these clips. But now that I kind of don't really care anymore, Zach really wants to get back.

Okay, good. Yeah. So maybe it'll happen maybe. Yeah, it was a fun idea. We had fun. Yeah, that was fun. Yeah. That would be a fun.

I would be into that. If you ever want me to be on it, I'll just say, great. I would love to, I would love to, like, do it every once in a while. Like you're saying, like, it's like, hey, let's just get in a mood for 30 minutes right now. And all you got to do is sit in the back of a car. and do it. Like, yeah, pretty easy production. I'll let you know.

Okay. You could come to me. Great. But yeah, Black Bearers, I think it's easy to think like, oh, dude, they're not even that aggressive. It's like an alligator. It's like, well, they don't even really want to eat you. I'm like, still I'm terrified.

Oh, boy. I don't want to be near. For whatever reason, alligator seems scarier to me because they're like a different kind of thing. Like, black bears- They don't have mammalian glands. It's like, yeah. It's like, I got, I got four things too, buddy.

Like, I know you're crawling on yours and I'm standing on mine. But like, we're one and the same. Yeah, we have nipples. Alligators, though, they're like, they're a whole different thing. Yeah. It's like, do you shed or what do you do? If you eat me, like, you don't even know where to start eating, you know, like, you don't even know where my meat is. So, anyway.

Oh, alligators. Alligators. Yeah. No thanks. I'd be most terrified if a black bear came into our house, though, right? Over an alligator. Ah. How fast are alligators?

They're fast. I think they're quick burst animals. So we're bears, though. I think al-Bairs are all just straight line speed, quick speed. Bears are cool, man. Bears, yeah. They're cool. Never seen one.

Thought we did in Colorado once. I thought we did in Colorado once. A dog was pretty menacing. Yeah, we thought we did. We thought we saw a black bear. A black bear right by the parking lot. Once we got done with the hike and it was in someone's backyard. That was the craziest part.

Look, it's going into that dog's kennel. That black bear's in a fintzoned back yard. yard. It's eating that bone. They taught to black bear to play fetch. Wow! He's on a leash. It's fighting with that cat.

What's it doing over there? Oh, man. Good hike. Good hike. Pretty hike. That's fun that we did that. Jake, were you the one that one time, like, had my hard drive and you found that video of, like, a bear kind of chasing my brother? That was not me.

It was not you? All right. I just, I think someone borrowed my... I was snooping around people's stuff like that. I like, I like that timing as a strategy to like, uh,

pigeonhole in your own, uh, you know, story. Hey, were you the one with my hard drive that found that, found that clip of me, um,

on the Jelenorish show. Were you the one that, I was on it though? He didn't want to talk about it real quick. Were you guys the ones that hadn't heard my story yet about the, the bear? Yeah. Yeah.

Uh, uh, it was just, it's not even that. I don't know. We were just in Colorado. We saw lots of bears. Oh,

sorry. Uh, And one in a backyard. It was a bear. But there was like kind of, there was like a bear cub somewhere. We were kind of all looking at. I think that would be the scariest thing to see.

Because you know, mama's around. Yeah. And so like, I think if I'm remembering it right, kind of from almost behind us or like, almost between, we were kind of between these two bears. And like one of them just kind of comes running up. And so we're just kind of,

let's get out of the way. And there's a video of one just coming probably within five feet of Jesse. What? Yeah. Wow. And you were just filming it. Like, this will be great content.

Yeah. Wow. Five feet? Five feet is like you to do. Maybe 10. Okay. But I bet he smelled it. Wow.

That's too close. Was Jesse running away at that time? I think he was kind of, he's kind of an nonchalant guy. He's kind of nonchalant me jogging away. Yeah. Just a nice little jaunt. We saw a bear on the limo trip from like a pretty good distance away. So we get out of the limo and we're kind of running into the field because it was so far away.

We didn't feel in danger. and like I have this zoom lens so I'm trying to like film it but from the naked eye it was kind of like what we saw in Vail it's like I think that's a bear but it looks like a small black bear and I think it's a turtle

it's kind of running funny yeah it could be a sea turtle or a pillow yeah and anyway it was a bear and when we go to finally upload it or whatever when we're looking at the footage like oh wow it was hard to tell because he must have been like injured or something

we couldn't even see it but like once you're you know look in the footage like oh he was kind of like limping you know, had some Jimmy legs on him. Anyway, we upload that, whatever. And there's like, you know, people and animals. I mean, they were just like, that bear was injured.

You should have helped it. You should have called someone. You're like, dude, first of all, we had no idea that bear was injured. Second of all, I was supposed to call someone? You're supposed to call who? Yeah. You should have done something. That poor bear was injured.

He didn't even look like he's fully grown. Michaela Wee is no longer coming on the next ghost horse getaway because you did not help that bear. Michaela, we sound off in the comments. What do you do about a, like, if you're in Westford, Virginia and a black bear, a teenage black bear has like a wounded leg. And you're not positive if it's like a wounded leg or if they're just trying to be like, go through like a phase of like, I'm trying to be cool.

Yeah. And you actually didn't know he was wounded until you got back home and looked at the footage. So you don't, you don't really know where he's at anymore. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Where they were. And do I know exactly where that is? That's pretty funny. That's bear talk. Bear talk. Bear talk. Let's see. What I want to talk. Upward. Let's give you some upward updates real quick. Upward updates. We'll start with the lesser of the two teams. We'll call them the Cowboys, the boys team. Man, start off strong. The first two plays, Griffin, two shots, two makes. Okay. Griffin is a sharp shooter. He shot it three times all year, made all three of them.

I like that. Yeah, he misses a lot in practice, but makes him all in the game. He's a sweet little kid. He's one of the short. shorter. He's like shorter than Bo. Bo's like so short on the team. But yeah, little cute little Griffin makes some shots. I'm like, we're going to have some, we're going to have some action this game. Okay. I don't think we shot a ball again for the next 25 minutes. Didn't get a shot off? Maybe, maybe we got a few shots off now that I think about it because I, because Bo shot it twice. There was one time I was like, he's going to make it. Yeah. He didn't. One time he was like behind the backboard shooting it. And I'm like, that's not going to go in, but you should pass that next time. but I was proud of them for taking it to the basket.

The other team was just incredible at stealing the ball. And our team, credit to the coach, learned what double dribbling meant. And so every time they stopped dribbling, they tried to pass it. But kids, remember how, like when you're a kid, it takes you 45 seconds to pass the ball? Do you remember that? It's like,

Local news is in decline across Canada. And this is bad news for all of us. With less local news, Noise, rumors, and misinformation fill the void. And it gets harder to separate truth from fiction. That's why CBC News is putting more journalists in more places across Canada, reporting on the ground from where you live, telling the stories that matter to all of us.

Because local news is big news. Choose news, not noise. CBC News. Pass it! Pass it! Pass it! you know and so there were a few kids on the other team every time the kid would stop their dribble pass it pass it this kid would just come up and steal the ball from it oh yeah the kids did not love that but hey that's that's basketball for you baby um but yeah overall great time for whatever reason dude the most confusing thing for kids is when the and i think i could blame the refs a little bit for this i try to scream at them whenever the ball goes out of bounds they don't always they think the ball goes out of bounds, that means it's the other team's ball. So let's go down here. That means it's our ball.

So it means it's switching sides. And it doesn't always obviously switch because sometimes it's just out of bounds on whatever team. They think every out of bounds is a good jump ball. It's like, well, we got it last. All right. Change possession. I mean, eight, eight free points for the other team from them just sprinting to the other side. Sprinting to the other side.

We're on defense still. Defense! Come on. And, you know, one kid. There was a kid, like, there was one kid. Like, I don't know if he had a hang nail or what, but he had his hand, he was chewing his nail the entire time. Okay. And at the very end, score a basket.

So it's like, hey, there you go, buddy. But I mean, I am dead tired after every single guy. I'm running over now. You give it. You're all. Yeah, I'm jaunting, dude. I'm jogging around. All right back this way.

Come on. But anyway, fun times with them. 8 a.m., dude. It's so hard to, like, get the kids there and just be like, all right, let's go sprint around at 8 a.m. but it's so fun. The guy who like, have I told you how they do the announcements for him? I knew that about Upward.

I don't know if your league was doing it. Dude, they, you know, our church has like, whatever you want to call it, like the strobe light, disco light kind of things

with like all the cool, like, you know, designs, they turn off all the lights. And this guy that announces them is like an ex-army ranger and like probably 65 years old

got a gravelly voice to him. At point guard, Private Bo Ellis. He does. He'll be like... He'll be like... He'll be like, Jumping James!

Hey! You know, whatever. And I mean, he even like, like, he does one side of the court. There's two games going at once. So he does one side of the court and then he comes over to the other one. And while he's like switching back and forth,

Simon, do you know the song? Dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, yeah. Okay, so do that. So I'll play that a little, or sing that for me. Let's give it up for the cowboys. The Cowboys are coached by,

Brad Ellis and then it's time. And then we're moving to the other side and he just goes, Jesus loves me the sun no. For the Bible tells me so. Little ones who him belong. They're weak, but he is strong. All right, let's give it up for the ladies' sparse now. It's awesome, dude.

Like, he does such a good job. And, yeah, like, I mean, the kids. It's feel like, I mean, can you imagine as a seven-year-old running out there like that? Well, I did upward one year in like second grade. And I remember hearing like, oh, yeah, they go all out. They'll do like a Chicago Bowl's intro for you. And the league I was in, they never did that. And I was always so sad.

I would have loved it. I think it's so cool they do it. It's so cool. So Haddy's game on the other side. Dude, I, once again, I have a hard time with those like third grade girls. Those little brats? I don't know. it's so hard because I'm like, I think that some of these parents, like, I don't know them very well,

but I'm like, I can read your body language even. I'm like, I think you'd be okay with me getting a little bit frustrated with your daughter. But like, what if not? But like there was this one girl. First of all, she dominated while she was in. I bet she scored genuinely 25 points. Okay, this is your Cheryl Swopes. She was tall and just like no one was really gardener.

And she would just drive the basket and make them all. I mean, we won the game, first of all, first win. But while she was on the bench, all she did was ask me questions. the entire time. And they weren't basketball related. Sometimes they were, but a lot of times they were like, did you know what your daughter just said? She said, do you know what she said about your brother?

And finally I go, hey, part of being a good teammate is watching the game and cheering on your team. I got onto her like that. And she, she shut down. Okay, that works. Yeah. To the point where I was like, too much. This girl, yeah, this girl's like five feet tall. So I feel like she's older than she is.

But then I got to remember she's had his age and I was kind of rude to it. So anyway, but she did a better job of being a teammate. Okay. So anyway, just get after. Just asking you. Yeah. Everything. But both practices this week, man.

First of all, Beau's practice, we were working on defensive shuffles. So when you play defense time, you're not supposed to just like, yeah, you're not supposed to just run back and forth. Yeah. When you're playing, you're supposed to shuffle, yeah, slide back and forth. And so I was helping the kids do it. And I don't know if it's like the combination of moving around myself. for that long or like being in a seated position moving around. But after five minutes of it, I was drenched and sweat.

Like I looked like an alcoholic out there. Like it was like, what is going on with Brad? Like, why is he sweating so much? And I wasn't like crazy tired, but I was like, I can't stop sweating. And so for the rest of the practices, I was just gone. I was just, yeah. I feel that. That's a big like the, the better and better you get a pickleball, the more you're

in a seated position and you're just going left and right. And yeah, you're like, I'm playing doubles. well, how am I this sweaty? It's because you're just squatting and moving while seated so many times. And I wasn't even going that fat. I was just like a little bit, bag of whatever.

But this week, I did say that I got mad at that girl at the game. This week, disciplinary Brad came out a little bit. You run them? I never ran out. I threatened push-ups once, and the fattest kid on the team was like, sweet!

I'm like, you don't know. No, you're thinking of the push-up, like the push-pop. Yeah. Coach Bobbs. No, buddy. Yeah. I just had him sit out for, like, I was like, Levi, go sit down for, you know,

a minute until I get back. And then Bo, I, I, you had to make him. You got a coach son, you know. So I've had Bo go out twice because he wasn't keeping his hands to himself. Good. Keep your hands yourself. You make him Plank. I should, dude.

Plankin's good. That's a good idea. Plank is a great one because we don't have that much room to run. And they, those kids, man, we'll have like, we'll have them. do like laps around to start like laps around the perimeter their lap starts a little bit like the perimeter and then just turns into like them running in like a you know two foot radius circle so if I have them do laps they'd just be like whatever I taught them down and backs this time that's fun didn't call them the suez good but anyway and then I started getting on the girls we're doing a two on

one drill and this girl was just taking a terrible shot when she's guarded I was like your teammates wide open. You get negative points when you do that. I just can't stand kids that don't listen. I think that's what it is. It's just really hard for me to like, or don't listen and like blatantly disrespect the coach. Yeah. Especially when it's not me. Do you have a comprehension issue? Are you like disobedient? Yeah. Purposefully. It feels like they just are like,

it's not that big of a deal to obey the coach or like to respect them. And when it's not me, when it's me, I'm like, I can take it. When it's somebody else talking and I'm the assistant though. Yeah. That's when that's when hard Brad comes. cracks down. Heart assistant bread. Anyway, having a blast. Good time.

And having a blast. The love of Jesus, you know, one, one plank at a time. Jesus owes me this I know. It's awesome, dude. It's awesome. If anybody's seen it, they know this guy is the best. Have you seen that guy on Instagram who's trying to be a musician? He's ex-military.

So all of his songs are like that chant style. I forgot what it's called. No. That has. Yeah, whatever. Like marching. Yeah, it doesn't matter. There's a name for that?

There's a name for like, oh, he's doing roll call, whatever. But he's kind of an odd duck, and I think he would viral for some really cringy, like, cadences. I think that's what they're called. All of his songs are cadences, like, that, da, da, da da, da, da. You know, that's every song. He takes requests now, and it's unfortunate one of those things where I don't know if he knows people are making fun. of it. And so he just is singing just insane

things. I don't know if you guys have seen him. No, like what? Like, like, insanely like politically incorrect or like. Just like an unbelievably just far-fetched story of like, hey, I want, can you make this song? It's for my girlfriend. You know, so this guy's like, oh great, y'all, make it happen.

And then the song is about how my girlfriend don't have arms or legs. Girlfriend don't have arms or legs. It's just like, it just goes down this insane. That's why she has four big pegs. Round off.

Yeah, it's just like, on the nubs. Maybe this guy does know what he's doing, but it's just, Go fish is my favorite snack. Go fish. It's the snack that smiles back. Yeah, it's all those brand deals. Yeah, yeah. I would, I mean, that's not bad, actually.

I wouldn't hate a, what are those things called that people would pay us for? Cameos. Camio. I wouldn't hate a cameo. Brad's birthday is coming up, Brad. So we got you a new, brand new pup. Golden retriever. Dude, Derek got like a golden retriever puppy.

I don't know if you've seen his Instagram stories. It looks so cute. Dude, I want one. You guys got up. Yeah, I know. Let me be the uncle to your dog. Come on. Get a good one.

Dude, I know. What did I see? Oh, randomly, while I was like scrolling through YouTube TV, I saw, They had a thing for like the best Super Bowl commercials of all time. And one of them they did was, you remember that like Golden Retriever puppy with the Budweiser horse in like 2014? Oh yeah, yeah. And it was like, that's a cute dog.

I could have one of those dogs. I take one of dogs. Hey, can I, what's the word? Can I do a cadence? Oh, okay, you can be real. Yeah. I thought that's what you're going to say. Can I be real real real real quick?

Yeah. Yeah. I don't know if it took a picture my way. Okay. Can I mark a Marco Polo real quick? Yeah. Go ahead. Hey, man, I'm doing a podcast ad about Cozy Earth.

I'll be right back. Okay. Yeah. There's an efficient use of Marco Polo when you can respond whenever it's convenient to you. Yeah. You're like, let me log on to Marco Polo. Hey, dude, now's not a good time. No, I'll get back.

I'll check back. All right. Can I, can I be real with you real quick about Cozy Earth? We talk a lot about their bed sheets. We talk a lot about their joggers. I'm here to talk about their hoodie. I got something new this week. Well,

you keep going. Let me find what I bought. I need to, I need you to be on this, though, about being real about this thing. Okay. I am real.

I am on this. Are you? I'm on this. Because I, I love their hoodies. But I don't think I, I don't experience as many things like this in my life as Jake does. And can we be real,

Jake, and say that I think on your first tour with Trey, you got into, a borderline addiction of just Instagram ad targeting getting every single competitor of Cozy Earth as well. Like you got all these hoodies.

You got all these nice like different brands. And I can we be real real quick? And can you please admit that the Cozy Earth one is the best out of all of them? Yes. Here's what I'll say. When it comes to I am looking for Max comfort like a long day of travel or airport, I make sure my cozy earth joggers and cozy earth sweatshirt are clean.

Yes. And that is me being for real. They are as good as it gets. Like two weeks ago, I ordered a couple things off their site. And I got a new pair of joggers and I got a cream color, this color, but even a little wider, cream colored like just crew neck sweatshirt. It's like, it's at the top of the depth chart. Yeah.

It's crew neck one. Yes. C and one. It's really nice. I have one of their hoodies. And I think I'm going to get another one of the exact same one. just because I have a one and a half year old that reaches for my arm

every single time he wants more food and gets whatever he's eating on my sleeve so I have to change him out too often so I'm like, all right, I gotta get two of these things because I love him so much. Yeah, it's great. And Rachel was very complimentary of the outfit that threw together, Cozy Earth on Cozy Earth.

She's like, I like how this looks. It was like cream on black. I will say, how I take my coffee. Be a little bit forewarned. People will touch your clothes if you wear cozy earth. They'll be like, what is this?

You treat like you're Sam Hartman. It's cozy earth. It's still on my computer. I went this whole episode just looking at Sam Hartman. You dog. Lucky dog. Yeah, cozy road. Take 20% off too.

It's a great deal. They make great stuff. Get some bed sheets or just really, really cozy. I know, sorry, I'm just being so row. And I always think about them. I was like, Cozy Earth, that's a good name for a brand. It's a great name for a brand. They did a good job with that because it's like,

when I want to be cozy. That's what I put on. So yeah, cozyerts. So yeah, Cozyert. Whole Earth. Take 20% off. GRKC. You won't regret it.

Cozy Earth makes such high quality stuff. So, join us and being cozy. Inspired by you guys, I spent the past week letting DJX take over my Spotify.

Hey, great. What's going on? Hey, what's going on? It's a DJX. I know you've been... Yeah. I know you've been wearing pants lately.

Or I guess I can't guarantee. But here's some pants music. Your feet are probably cold. I don't know. He gets more and more unpredictable. It's so, it's like, yeah, it's very strange. They're trying to spice it up. I respect it.

I've given him a full week's chance and I've decided I think I'm out on DJX in first day. Did you ever tell me where? I think the two main things that I have issues with. One is like the, just like the songs being given to me I don't necessarily love. So for instance, it's like, first time ever, I just go, yeah, DJX just like mix it up.

You know, it's the middle of the day. And he's, you know, he's talking to me. And he's saying like, he's something you might like. and it's a new Bruno Mars song. You heard it? I just might. No, it's called. It's great. Credit to Bruno, the guy knows how to make a hit.

And I like this new song. I saw one of my buddies tweet, like, it's that time every 10 years where Bruno Mars comes out of hiding and makes one amazing song. Yes. Dude, here's a fun fact. Maybe I've talked about this before on the podcast, but Scott's calling me.

All right, put a pin in Bruno Mars. Here you go. I'm just going to give it to you. Coda Joe. What are you? El taquio. What's that going to be? What's up, Koda, Joe?

What are you doing? You're back in America? I'm back in the States, baby. Back on U.S. soil. How does it feel? It feels good. Yeah. It feels good.

Isaac and I were walking through the airport yesterday, and we kind of like, man, I kind of miss Asia. Americans just look so depressed all the time. Looks so tall. So big and round. Really, really Americans look more depressed than, you're on the podcast, by the way. Americans look. Yeah, so be nice to, you know, but you think that Asians look happier, like just normal people walking down the street in Asia? It seemed like it.

I mean, maybe I was just limited to seeing people in a pickleball facility that were really jazz to see us. They seemed pretty freaking happy. Yeah, interesting. Are you, you got home yesterday? Yeah, I got home yesterday. at, got to my house at like 6 p.m. I think it was like door to door. It was like 28 hours of travel.

So are you feeling so jet lagged? Like are you out of it? What's? I slept from like 815 to 7.30. So I feel okay. But when I got home last night, I was feeling it because I do not have the superpower that Jake and Isaac have of being able to sleep on planes. Yeah.

So when you're on international planes and you can't. I can't sleep. Those are long flights. You didn't have like any melatonin or anything? I was a little, I don't know. I've never taken melatonin before. I was just a little scared to like take it on a, for the first time on a trip to China.

I was like, I don't know what this could do to me. Okay. I don't know the details, but can you remind me you burst an eardrum on a flight one time? Yeah, I ruptured both my eardrums on a flight once. What? So you're a little bit scared of like, yeah, let's just experiment something real quick with this melaton.

I don't know how it's going to go. I'm creating some like side effects of potentially like nausea and stuff. And I was like, I ain't trying to do that on a 12 hour flight to China. That's a good point. Fair. Fair. Yeah. Well, yeah, we miss you.

We want to get you and Isaac on the podcast sometimes soon to hear all your, uh, your stories. For sure. Next week, I think we both would love to come on. I have, I have a pretty juicy note on my phone with everything. I pretty much just jotted down to everything as it happened. last week because I didn't want to forget anything. So we got some good stories. Yeah, I don't even know.

Every once in a while, I'll be on, like, I'll log on to Facebook on my computer and see a few stories. But I don't even know, like, most of, like, my mom, my mom referenced something. Like, my mom, the other day, we had lunch at her house. And she's like, did they ever get their luggage? And I'm like, I don't really even know what, like, I kind of remember Jake saying something about that, but I don't even know where you're talking, you know, like. And so I, yeah, I'll have some raw reactions for you. if you had stuff that you posted about.

I saw that you had a bunch of pudding looking airport lounge pudding or something. That's about all I saw. Was that what it was? That was one of the highlights of the trip out for sure. Anyway. All right. Do you need anything from Jake right now or just call him saying? Just have him call me when you guys are done.

I have a quick question on paddle inventory that he just received. Great. The Aurora, man. All right. All right. Yeah, lots of horror, baby. All right. Give us, give us Christopher Walkin,

who's kind of like sore from, you know, doing too many pickleball slides back and forth, but also is figuring out where he wants to eat in Palm Springs and he likes this Mexican spot. Oh, boys. Wow. I mean, scone off international flight. feeling sore

feeling the jet lag if you know what I mean now I got a hankering I got a I got a fever prescription

is Mexican food at my favorite spot you know my favorite's El taco Elga Great performance Nailed it

Scott Pek ladies gentlemen Love you buddy We'll talk to you soon All right see you good That was great. Wow.

Man, he finished. The guy's a star. Wow. That's great. That's too good. All right. What did we put a pin in? Bruno Mars.

Bruno. Oh, yeah. I wrote it down. Bruno quietly, his song with Lady Gaga, died with a smile. I remember when it came out, you know, whatever,

fine song. That was the fastest song to one billion streams, the fastest to two billion and the fastest to three billion. Like, that song is very quietly going to be the most popular song

of all time. Isn't that crazy? sing it if the world was ending I'd want to be next to you that was great three billion

none of them have been me apparently we also is it new talked about this one time and I sing it and I was saying this sounds

familiar now that I'm saying it but yeah anyway kind of crazy okay the guy knows how to make a hit I like Bruno Mars

so DJX plays that for me I think fun and we just go around our way the next day I think I'm maybe on my way to pick a ball or something. And so there's a little like text box for DJX. That's what I was going to recommend to you, but you already know it.

Yeah. And so I forgot what I said the second day, but whatever I said, it played the same Bruno Mars song again. I'm like, I feel like you really want me to listen to Bruno Mars. Yeah. And I will. Good suggestion, but that's not what I was going for. And then the third day, it didn't start with Bruno Mars, but we.

whenever I typed in, we did get to that St. Bruno Mars song again. Yeah, yeah. And now it wasn't like super, it wasn't like I requested country and then I go back to Bruno Mars, but I was like, wow, this seems like, it's just the Spotify top hits. It's kind of like, okay, I understand why I got 3 billion views or screens, it's because they pushed it to everybody.

Yeah, it does feel like the DJX, we'll call it the first 12. First 12 songs are pretty much like, hey, I'm going to play these for you every time. You like them. Yeah. And it's true. But I have, yeah, I've tried to do like the AI thing, like where you tell it.

There was one time I was like, I'm really into Red Clay Strays and also Forrest Frank's Lofi Christmas album. Okay, you give it a lot. So can you play Red Clay Strays and some other Lofi things that are similar to that Christmas album?

It didn't do great with the like similarities to Lope. Like it was like Lofi kind of, but it wasn't, I wanted to, and I was like, I wanted to have words and they couldn't find that for me. I mean to tell you,

I haven't been enjoying listening Red Clay Stray's though. Have you? They're good. Yeah. I feel like I've listened to them on like road trip to Dallas and back, road trip to Iowa and back.

And there's been a couple times I can kind of hear, I'm like, ooh, what is this song? I turn it up and I look at it. Well, that's the Red Clayson. Yeah, they're good, man. I haven't listened to Van Dusenhausen yet, but I will.

You're good. Wasn't him? John Bend Dusen. Van Dusen. But then the other, I think the more, the more annoyed thing with DJX is his accent, unfortunately. It just, it feels like a guy

who was born in Wisconsin. It feels like a black guy born in Wisconsin, trying to be a black guy who was born in Atlanta. He's trying way too hard. Everything has got like this like urban twang to it. That is valid. It's too much for me. You know what?

I know you like Bruno Maws and you like, that was more like New York. I know you like Bruno Mars and you like so and so. So I don't play both. They play both. I'm trying to feel like or figure out where he's from. His name is Zay. your ex-Jurnegan.

No way he has a last name. Cool. Wikipedia. Does he have his own Wikipedia? He doesn't he has on Wikipedia page? Yeah, I got to say, the DJ has been more of a last resort for me recently. Okay. But I feel like, yeah, once you get past the first 12, once you get past the Big 12, it gets better, I think.

Okay. And it'll, it branches out a little bit, and it will play stuff you haven't heard more commonly after the Big 12. And sometimes it's pretty good. Like, yeah, I'd say, yeah, as a way to discover some new music, I think it's fine. And Isaac and I, that day that we did 24 hours straight of work in South Dakota, we went on a journey with DJX. And it converted me. Because we went, we went from Leonard Skinner to praise and worship.

Like, we went to like a classic rock block. And then we went to like, you know, a worship set. And then we went to like, you know, Tate McCray or whoever. stuff like that. It was like, you know, this is working, man. And like, it was enough to, like, keep us going of like, all right, switch it up. It's good. And blocks. It was like, you change channels every once in a while. That doesn't like a great environment to utilize DJX because it's like, you got so long. And literally sometimes our hands were like stained with stain. And so it was like, we can't change it even if we want to. It's up to him, no. Yeah.

It's in his hands. You're not that far off with Xavier Jernigan's, you know, story here. according to this. Well, you said Wisconsin to Atlanta. Yeah, it was kind of opposite. He grew up in Daytona Beach, Florida. Oh, this is a real man. Yes, dude. Oh.

You didn't know that? I thought it was, no, I didn't know that. I thought it was AI. No, save your journey again, dog. Am I getting fooled? I don't know. I thought you were like just leaning into the fact that they came up with this persona for this AI.

But that makes sense that it's based on some real guy's voice. Isn't a serious like a real woman? Yeah, you're right. Like, they say a lot of words and that gives them enough to say everything now. Yeah. That makes sense. No, I think I'm the, yeah, I'm the dumb one here. That's, yeah. I thought somebody, I don't, I don't think I would have known this unless somebody commented something about like, yeah, you can watch his Instagram videos of him talking at one point. I think somebody commented that. So I'm not trying to act like I'm better, y'all. No, I truly thought that like they, they programmed the AI to be like, and let's give him a little more touch of blacks.

So a little more Southern black. It's just not quite Southern black enough. And that's why I'm like, I feel like they're just, you're trying too hard. He's from Daytona Beach, Florida. But then now he currently resides in Brooklyn, New York. Hmm. So maybe he's... So that's a Daytona Beach accent? I guess so, man.

I don't know. I've been to Daytona. Yeah, you're not a fan. I remember that. My favorite vacation I went on as a kid. I mean, we stayed like a days in on the beach. It was like, there's a pool at the hotel and there's the beach right there. A day's in on the beach sounds pretty good, actually.

And there was a Pirates Cove. within walking distance where you did mini golf. We got the week long membership there. We stayed at this awesome motel. You paid by the hour. It was great. We just go in and now. Rocking beds.

There was a seven. You're right. As I'm saying it out loud, it's like maybe this place was a little ghetto, but to me it was awesome. We literally, there was a 7-Eleven across the street. Perfect. Slurpees whenever you wanted. Had these vertical monkey bars on. Dude, yeah, you could climb the windows if you wanted to.

They had fireworks every night. Somewhere close. What's that guy? There's a black comedian from Kilt, like he got famous on Kiltony. You know what I'm talking about? I can't imagine him.

Is he a bigger guy? No, he's like, he's got big old hair. Cam Patterson. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

He's from Orlando. He's got a cool ex. Really? He has a funny voice. Yeah. Yeah. So. Anyway, DJX, I'm not done with you.

I'll keep trying you out. I think you should try to really, like, give it a lot of direction on the AI, like, thing and see what, like, give it like almost too much. Like, overwhelm it with ideas. All right. Ask for some music. I'm a big fan of voice. Use your voice. Okay.

Use that voice God gave you, Jake. I'm in a funny mood today. I want to laugh while also listening to some 90s country. Can you do that? Laughter in 90s country. That's a mix I can get into. Let me spend some funny tunes from back in the day. All right, here's some funny 90s country.

Texas tornadoes kicking it off. Come on now. Texas. Yeah. It's hilarious, dude. Your dad is viving with this. The song's called guacamole. Yeah, dude.

That's great. Kind of nailed this. Hey, I just, I just, I just reclaimed a fan named Jake Trinck. How good that recommendation was. Honestly, it did an amazing job finding a, like, silly 90s country song.

Kind of polka. It was kind of polka. DJX, you're back. Wow. Good job. I just got to give more info. Yeah. Tim and I heard you're going to be at Trey

and my show this weekend. Yes, I will. In the booth, in the, in the, studio in the control panel. So I was told, I think just to kind of observe, just to take things in. With the sound? No, I don't think I'm going to be working anything, but like I'll be, could put me out letterboxed. Uh, where me and Zach are going to help Derek film like the special eventually in Oklahoma City. So we're like going to take in some information and stuff. Um, Derek texted me and Zach last night was like, what, what do you guys think about interviewing people on

the street after? Just like being goofy. Oh, yeah. Let's do that, please. So that'll be fun. That's fun. So during the show, are you filming anything, or is Derek filming anything? I don't think I am. At least not that I was told. I think it's mainly just like, see how it flows, like, think of ideas for how we'll film it, stuff like that.

Gotcha. And just see the show, I guess. Yeah, you got to understand, like, the flow of his set in order to know how to film it best. That's good. Did I tell you that there's no DJ? Okay. This show. Bummer.

It's Mikey. like with a guitar, like he's going to sing and like perform for like 30 minutes. That's kind of cool. Yeah, it is kind of different. By himself, though? Yeah, no band. I think just himself.

No track? I don't know. Hey, it could be done. I'll talk about it Wednesday. It can be done. Did he, was his band the one that did Harrison's wedding? Do you remember that? No.

I don't remember. Somebody like knew us at Harrison's wedding, like Gene Schwarz or something. I didn't know if it was him. I bet he's. good enough where he could do it by himself, but it's like a different bear to like play acoustic without any. Yeah. Like you have to be more talented. I mean, you can do it. But like to like be that full with the audience that's like talking in the meantime. Yeah. I also wonder if Trey doesn't want a full

band because I don't think you want it super loud. Like because normally music would be playing kind of, even though there'd be a DJ kind of soft. Oh really? To let people still chatter and whatnot. I don't know. Yeah, but you want to get a little energy going. That's true. It needs to like escalate. late. Like, hey, 10 minutes till show time, let's get rocking. Right. Right. Yeah, I know. That'll be interesting because, yeah, report back. Because I'm like, if I, if there was a guy who played music, I would like be more respectful of like, I need to listen to this guy's playing right now. You know? It's funny you brought that up because when I saw that he was opening, I just assumed Mikey was trying out stand-up comedy. Like, and I was like, because I was, I feel like I had a

reasonable thought process. I was like, I mean, Jake, that's what you do. You start, you like, you You start filming for him and then you try the stand-up. And then I talked to Zach about it. It's like, we're like, yeah, Mike, he's opening for a tray. And Zach was like, yeah, it'll be cool. Like, hear what he sings. And I was like, oh, duh.

Oh, he's doing night. He's doing music because he's a musician. Because that's what he does. That actually does make sense. Yeah, that was pretty funny. Well, he, do you know, does he have his own songs? Or does he just do covers? I have no idea.

I'd be intrigued to find out. I think I, unless I know the, like, person somewhat well, like, unless it's, like, Bear Reinhard or something up there, like from need to breathe. I'd rather you just do covers the whole time. All right. Here's an original one. Boo!

You're probably not that good at writing songs. Do Tennessee whiskey. I don't want to hear an original. Yeah, I voiced him a couple days ago. I was like, hey, dude, pump for this weekend. Kind of an interesting request, but I want to address you as soon as I get on stage, like give it up for Mikey. Do you have any celebrity lookalike?

Really, I'm asking for permission. How can I make fun of you? Like, who do you look like that I'm not thinking of? And he couldn't really think of anything, but I was like, he kind of looks like Trey. I think I want to make a joke about like. It's interesting to see what Trey would look like if he was straight. That's what I came up with.

That's good. So I voiced him with Mikey and ended up just finding my own answer. I was like, actually, never mind. I'm good. I got it. I thought it was something. Yeah. Matt Damon, nice tribe, buddy.

That's pretty funny. That's cool. I thought I was Trey up here first. And I was like, wait. He's not straight. That's pretty funny. Yeah, how are you feeling? Pretty good.

I went there yesterday. The only big question mark is, I think the last month when I performed, I just, I didn't land the set super well. I didn't have a good closer. I didn't have a good callback. And so wrote some new stuff. Got a pretty risky final joke that has never been tested. And boy, I hope it lands. I only get one shot at it.

Fun. I like that. Everything that leads up to it, like, should work. And then I'm really trying to like, yeah, have this brand new setup, callback, punch at the end. But it's untested. And it feels a little risky. So we'll see. Do you think it's like too clever?

Like, do you think people will understand it for sure? That's the only thing I'm worried about. Like, the last word is going to be gay. And it's got to be a callback to that joke about Trey at the very beginning. Perfect. But I don't know if I'm saying like, like the final word, the final sentence you're going to hear me say is, yeah, I'm pretty gay or something on those lines. I'm like, I hope that. That, I think it'll be fine.

I hope that lands. It just feels like that's a timing. You just, you don't know until you try. You and Zach need to be ready for this. Yeah. And no matter what, no matter. Zach's joking. Do not follow the rest of the crowd.

She sent an email in for review of the week.

Hi, Brad, Jake Tyman. Hi, Sadie. My name is Sadie Snow. I'm a freshman in college trying to figure out life. And you three make life a little easier whenever you upload. I'm a newer ghosty of listening for about over a year now. The podcast is so comforting. I just love hearing you'll talk about what you have going on.

Thank you all for being amazing examples of godly men looking to serve others. You three inspire me to be a light for Christ, show more love to others, and to not take life so seriously. Jake, you are someone I aspire to be like one day. You are a great example to me and you have taught me that if I want something, I can go for it. Also keep up the great work with Friday. Thank you, Sadie Snow. Brad, I respect how you have. have raised your kids in the kind of example you set for them.

You're an amazing father and example to me. In Tyman, you had so much of joy and light to the podcast. I love you all. And thank you for the impact you've had in my life. Much love, Sadie Snow. Thank you, Sadie Snow. Thank you, Sadie Snow. What up, Sadie Snow.

You live around here? I know a 19-year-old. Saydy Snow is a cool name, dude. That's one that would be like, I don't know if I'm getting married until I find the right guy. Sadie Snow. Yeah, you don't want to go Sadie Snow to Sadie Anderson. Saydy Snow is such a cool. Imagine Sidney Anderson.

Y! I'd get married immediately if I were her. Shout out, Sidney. Sydney, come back to Gold Shores. Get your name change, come back to Gold Shores. Sadie Snow. That's a dope name, dude. That's cool.

That's a lead female protagonist. What's up? I'm Boone rectangle. And there's my wife, Sadie Snow. That's awesome, dude. Sadie Snow is, yeah, like... We got a lot of love for the name Boone on the Facebook group. A lot of babies named Boone.

rectangles, but a lot of boons. Boone's a sweet name. Boone rectangle. I don't know. I can think of a few boons in my life. I don't know a bad one. I don't know a bad boon in my life. So just have one.

Bad to the boon. Bad boony. Hey, Javan Platner, is that how he pronounced this time? I think so. Javan Platner, listen to Support a Good Cause, he says, on this review. Five-star review. Every episode, I feel deeply inspired by the way Jake and Brad are caring for Tyman. Oh.

They have truly adopted him as their own, providing him housing, teaching him math and history, and feeding him Chick-fil-A and cafeteria Sprite. The guys have done so much for time and self-esteem by giving him a, quote, job. In parentheses, he has four buttons to push and telling him he has a good singing voice. By every kind of time in the wild, I aspire to do half as much for him as Jake and Brad have. Until that day, I'll continue to support their project by listening every Monday and every Wednesday. That's great. Thanks.

Thanks, job. Thanks, jobbing. Uh, yeah. Yeah, dude, one of my favorite. quotes back in the day, movie, I love you, man. I love that movie. It's not appropriate.

I'll just say it right now. It's rated R for a reason. Don't watch a game. A lot of language. But I think Paul Rudd in that movie is so awkwardly funny. And I loved it. And one of the things was like, I think his name in the movie was Pete.

And so the other guy would call him Pistol for Pistol Pete. And one time he's like, all right, catch you later, Pistol. And he just goes, you got it, Jobin. And so anyway, Javin. You got it, Javan? You got it. You got it. Jobin.

I loved that line. You got a Jobin. He's called him Jobin for no reason. Or at one point I think he was like, Catch you later, a city, stuck. Ah. Like, they're just like,

he's like trying to be cool and like say something fun. Like this other guy, I just can't do it. It's just awkward and so good at it. So anyway, you got it, Javan. End it with a Jobin. Uh, time. And people are saying you need to end it with a jingle.

So, into with a jingle. How's that Renal Mars song going again? We'll do in touch of Spotify. Oh,

which one? All right. Here's what we're going to do. All right. You're going to chat GPT. Jason gave you three subjects to chat GPT about Army chance.

Oh, you're going to do a cadence. And I'm going to do, I'm going to do the, kind of the echo. No, I'm going to do the jock jam's beat. Okay. You're going to be the echo.

Timon's going to be the one. Give it out. All right. So, yeah, you need an army cadence that has the, of algebra. You need to do one for algebra.
