We rolling? Oh, yeah. Podcast? Sure. If you want. All right. Fair enough. Putting these headphones on just reminded me a couple weeks ago when Rachel and I traveled

for her spring break, we got a flight. When Rachel's got headphones in, she's a bit of a liability. Oh, no. Is she a loud talker? Yeah. Oh, really? Because I think the measure of like, this isn't the only measure of like when you found the one or, but like when you were not nervous.

to be with someone in any environment, to take this person, it doesn't even have to be like a romantic relationship, but it's like a new friend or someone else. You know, it's just so nice you don't have to worry about them being in front of your parents or this group or that group or this race,

you know, whatever. And that's what's so great when you are dating someone. You're like, I just feel comfortable they can be in any environment. I don't need to be next to him, whatever. And Rachel's that way. Okay.

Unless she has headphones on an airplane. And then I got to really monitor the volume. She's in her own world at that point. Yeah. What kind of headphones is she rocking? So she kind of, she didn't even realize this was like a trend, at least she claims, but like the corded Apple headphones. Okay.

She's been into those lately because I bought her some like over ear ones and she said they hurt her ears. So now I have two sets of headphones. Hey. But is she like, I feel like Catherine's all about the corded because of the EMF stuff. Yeah. And I think this is unrelated. Okay. I could be wrong.

She's just, what it is is the second Rachel at Christmas. has received beats wireless headphones for me she gave tim her brother her AirPods like sweet won't need these anymore oh and then the beats really hurt her ears she's like guess i'm going corded because that's all i have really i feel like those are like known for so comfortable so that's what i yeah i was like you have the over the on ear ones yes those hurt your ears but over the ear it's like barely even touching the ear you're talking about like ones like we have basically just like this yeah they're like humongous she's like they hurt my ears like your ears are a normal size I don't know.

It's like when I lay out my side, it hurt. I'm like, well, yeah. I need to watch you wear these. Uh-huh. But she was wearing a sweatshirt that said FP movement on it. Free people, you know, clothing, you know, whatever. Brand. And this guy who you know this guy, this guy just speaks to every woman ever on a plane.

Okay. Not his fault necessarily. But, you know, he talks to the woman in front of us. I can hear him talking to the woman behind us. But he sees Rachel's sweatshirt. What do we, what do we go? got here he's sitting down we're boarding what do we got here fp uh what did he say female female power and rachel just goes yeah female power totally yeah sorry yeah 28 uh uh oh oh oh i do i think this tight

beat means that it's going down with some random thoughts and white me 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. Everybody's morning who are taking around. I just, yeah, there's just something about when you have those headphones on, but you got to know,

you got to change your, change your barometer for how loud to be. Hopefully she will learn. That's so good. We can hope that she will learn. I mean, we've all, like, it's so fun with my kids watching all of them learn, you know,

because, because Bo is definitely still struggling through it sometimes. And what happens is we'll be on a road trip and he'll have his headphones on and be in his own little world. And they're in the backseat, Bo and Hattie. And then the middle seat, those kids fall asleep. And so

it's like, we're all trying to be like, I mean, it's like it's nothing but the white noise of the road. You know, we're just being quiet. And Bo's got his headphones in, listening to, you know, whatever. I don't know what. Frog and Toad. And he's like, Mom, can we have lunch now?

And the way, the quickness that Catherine snaps back and be like, shh. Sometimes I think Catherine shush is louder than anything. Yeah, you got to be soft shush still.

Yeah. Especially because he can't hear you. Yeah. Okay. Okay. In a little bit. You know, whatever.

That's so funny. Or sometimes, like, the rule is once the little kids fall asleep, then we can watch a movie because we have a little screen in our van. And so sometimes we'll be like,

Mom, Henry's asleep. Can we watch a movie now? Now's perfect time. Okay. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Bed knobs and broomsticks. Oh, yeah, Bo and Rachel should fly somewhere together. They're great, man.

Yeah, yeah, so. Have your kids been on airplanes? Haddy flew a ton because it was, it's so easy with one. I don't think any of the other ones have, though. I don't know if Bo, maybe when he was really young, we took him somewhere. But yeah, Haddy, we went to Mexico for her brother's, Catherine's brother's wedding.

That's right. Yeah, we flew to Texas a few times. So yeah, she's been on a few. It looks like maybe we're going to be on one kind of soon because we're going to a funeral. Probably in the next, I don't know, we'll see when. And then probably we're going to go to the beach this summer and we're going to fly there. We're going to use all, basically, all the points from the credit card basically to fly there because we are going to the same. We're going to Gulf Shores with Catherine's family in May, I believe.

Okay. And, yeah, she, yeah, we, we drove there when Rosie was young. And I remember on the way home, Catherine's like, we'll never do this again. It was hard, man. I mean, it's just two full days of driving there and back, you know, with the kids. And it's different when it's hot outside. It's like, because even when you stop, like to like stretch your legs, it's like, gosh, we got to keep this car going or something because it's just so hot.

You can't just roll down. Like, and you're, you're changing a. diaper when it's like, oh, hot dive. Hot dives. Yeah. Hot cabbage. Well, anyway, um, you guys maybe, you saw the title of this episode. Uh, it's true.

Rachel and I are actually making a little move here. And that the roof is, it's all part of it. There have been clues. There have been signs. Maybe people have picked it up. I actually saw some comments recently. I feel like Danny Parkhurst was like, Jake, Rachel, you guys are in Phoenix so much. Oh.

Why don't you just move here? The paparazzi found you. Yeah, Talissa found us. Yeah, Rachel and I are going to be moving to Phoenix this summer. We're taking Isaac with us, eventually hoping to take Scott and his family with us. Who knows if anyone else wants to come? We'll put time in the basement. Yeah.

Yeah, if we get a house of the basement, we'll bring time with us. But yeah, it's a move for Friday pickleball and correct opinion. will no longer, I will no longer be on correct opinions. This is like my last month there. And Ghostrunners, nothing's changed. Day!

I'm not leaving. It lives on. Yeah. What if? Yeah, no. Everyone held their breath. Really nothing changes other than like, we won't be 82 steps away.

Maybe, how, define step. That's a good point. Step one, drive to the airport. Step two. Walk to the terminal. We might be six steps away, brother. Fine stuff is good. No, yeah, nothing really changed with Ghostrenners.

I mean, we'll just do it virtual, and that'll be fine. But yeah, it should be, I was going to say. Oh, when we were doing jeet shorts, it felt really convenient to be, like, really next to each other. But as far as, like, there's a world where I think we have more to talk about now because we're not neighbors. It's like, dude, I can tell you what Dennis is doing. You have to be like, I know.

I would love Dennis updates. Yeah. So anyway, yeah, we're, that's why we went over spring break. We went to look at houses. Nothing really worked out. I guess I could tell that story now. Or I could, I can tell here a little bit. But we're just going to rent because we don't know if this is going to work out.

We were going there, obviously, you guys met Kyle, who was on this podcast a few months back. We've signed him on to Friday. He's a pro player. He's got a court in his backyard. There's a lot of synergy there. He's a YouTuber. He's getting married to Rachel's friend. Yeah.

Yeah, Rachel's like college volleyball teammate. Like we just, we get along with them so well. Phoenix is like year-round sunshine. You can do stuff outdoors more. There's higher level players there. The pickable market's bigger there. And we only be six steps away instead of 82. So there's a lot of benefits, but it's not guaranteed.

I mean, and that's part of the reason I think Scott is a little hesitant to move there right away with us because he has a lot more to uproot. than we do. Yeah. So me and Rachel and Isaac are going to go down, get a lay-to-land, see if this is as good as I think it could be. We'll rent. It's a temporary thing. If it goes well, then, yeah, maybe we do stay down there.

And, but the goal still is always like, build Friday, have a ton of fun doing this business. Someday, sell it, come back, build our dream house in Kansas City. Come on. That's still like the end of the tunnel. If I say tunnels, I mean, I died? No. The light at the end of the tunnel? No.

The other side of the tunnel is more road. There's no tunnels to nowhere. Yeah, you're right. The light is sunshine. The light is the heaven. Yeah. Oh. In that sense, in that instance, in that instance, not in every instance.

There's more, there's more of the journey after the tunnel. You just can't use your cell phone. You're saying you'll sooner end up in heaven and come back to Kansas City. Or, no. It depends about the light could be another train. You've heard this. You've heard the phrase there's no way in hell that I'm coming back. He's saying that the light of the other tunnel is Kansas City.

So. Yeah, it is kind of crazy. We never thought we'd leave Kansas City. And also never thought I had to pick up all business. I mean, never thought a lot of this would happen. So, yeah, really just trying to, uh, whatever phrase you want to put to it, strike while the iron's hot, pour gasoline on the fire.

Kyle keeps saying pour fire on the gasoline on accident, which is a funny image. I got this big thing of fire. Where do you want me to put it? Yeah. Let me dump this. fire on the gasoline. Put on that pool of gasoline.

That's funny. But yeah, just trying to be smart enough to know that I've gotten really lucky, very blessed with Friday, try to take advantage of it. So, yeah, nothing with what you guys are listening to is going to change. I mean, obviously some things will change, but not too much. We'll have microphones. We'll have microphones. We'll have faces in front of the cameras.

Yeah. What do we do with? This guy? Justin's available. Yeah. I was pointing to one of the roofers. Do you know their names? Stop if you don't.

I don't. I'm just kidding. That's one of those things. Like, why is that offensive? Like, that's not offensive to anybody who is not easily offended. Stop if you don't. But it's like we've been taught, like, you can't.

The guy is Mexican and you can't say, don't. His name might be Miguel. That's a common Mexican name. Brad. Don't say that. Just quit it. Yeah, I'm going to sell both homes here, or at least going to try to.

Yep. Not always a given. You'll be fine. We'll see. So, yeah, getting a new roof on this house, it's so funny, like, meeting with Peter. I'm like, you know, real estate agent, our friend Peter, and I'm like, is what I tell you, like,

if I'm talking to a lawyer, Like, is there a client attorney privilege in real estate? I was like, because I don't know if I should tell you everything. Because they definitely did tell me everything when I bought this house. And he's like, oh, gosh. He's like, how bad is it? And I was like, well, you've heard of a chimney not connected? And he's like, no.

I was like, so the chimney's not connected. That's one thing. They can exclude that. They'll just exclude that from the. That's what he's. He's like, oh, that's easy. Yeah. I go, that's easy?

Because there's certain things that you can just say, like, this does not count. Like, you can inspect it and see, like, hey, the chimney is not good. but you can't make them fix it because on the seller's disclosure, what it's called, they'll just say, it's exempt. Dude,

you know your stuff. Yeah, I'm trying. You're stuff. Yeah. So yeah, just trying to get the house ready to sell. This one,

we will stage it as it currently is. We're trying to do some upkeep to it. The, the house, he was like, you might want to get them out of that one. It's like a house full of dudes. I don't think that's going to like look great.

Posters of like, it's like thumbtack posters of Sidney Sweeney on the wall. Probably not great. Wait. Nathan Coley's room is just a skinny, sweetie, shrine. Nathan, dude. Wow.

She's a great actress. Yeah, that's fair. That's big time, though. So yeah, doing that, I'm getting a dumpster here next week. Hired my first dumpster. Don't know what size to get. Isaac's like, you might if I throw some stuff in there? I was like, sure.

We got room? For what? What are you? Just starting to declutter. Peter said Picture Days April 15th. Okay. So I think that's like, you know, as we start to pack up, before we pack, let's get rid of crap. You don't need a big dumpster.

I didn't think so. I was like, yeah, I was like, I'm sure we'll have plenty of space. I mean, those dumpsters are way bigger than they look. Yeah. You know, like imagine like how much you could fit in a truck bed. Yeah. And you got 10, 20 truck beds at least in that dumpster, like even a small one. This might be the part of moving.

I'm most excited about it. The like deforestation of my life. All the stuff. It's like, all right, I moved here three years ago. If I haven't touched it, used it. If I, you know, in three years, easy throw away. Will that be easy for Rachel? I will be in charge.

You will do it when she's gone. Yeah, I will do it while she's at work. And she won't notice. That's the thing. Like, that is nice. If she can't find something, she will blame herself,

which is like, I probably lost it. Great. Sorry. I thought, I thought you were done with the wedding dress. Yeah. Certain.

Yeah, don't throw that away. Certain things like, when I moved out of the K-Life house back the day with Catherine, there was like things in my child. that I was like, man, that's kind of fun. But it was like a big, like, back in the day when I was an elementary school kid,

I ran for student body president. I won, no problem. That's fun. And I had like, my mom had like the poster still of like when I ran. And it was like, that's fun. But I don't need these forever. And so I just took pictures of them and I threw them away. That seems great.

I think it's like, hey, you, I want to remember this. Because part of me does cling to like, I would like this. But it's like, man, those are a lot of like large. poster board posters of just like, you know, just a handmade thing. I don't know. And, you know, there's certain things you just want to, you don't want to like get rid of everything. But you got to get rid of a lot. Yeah, I think I can, I can trim the fat pretty easy. So I'm excited to slim down on all of our belonging, especially like before moving across the country. Right. Everything is like, how do you, how do you do that? Do we both drive?

Do we both drive our cars individually? You ship one, we ship one, we ship one, ship two. Isaac's like, what do you do with your cars? I'm like, you try to bundle and save. Oh. Should we ship three? Yeah, I don't know. Just drive them. Could mine go on top of yours? Yeah.

Double deck this. Just get new cars. Oh, just sell the cars with the house. Yeah. So the washer, dryer, and the two cars out front do come with the house. The car might be worth more than the house. Baseball floods. Chimmy's not connected.

A couple leaks here. Don't turn the faucet that way in the shower. But it comes with a Tesla truck. Yeah. My buddy put it in. It gets pretty hot in the summer. get a lot of notifications about it. Really?

Turn the amperage down. Yeah. Oh, interesting. Yeah. It gets a job done. It's doing just fine. I guess probably because the ACs working too or something. I don't know what it is, but yeah, it overheats.

Or it's just hot in the outside. Huh. Yeah, it's funny trying to like get a 100-year-old house ready to sell. I mean, there's, I had no, it never even crossed my mind to rent this out. I have no interest in renting out a house this old. Really? And yeah, even the Allatha house. It's like, I would need to have a proper.

property manager probably at that. Still, I just don't want to worry about. Just don't want to just rent. Yeah. Rent. Yeah. Get out. Get it out. Get it out. washing my hands. Give me my money. I want my money. And then take it to Cam. Take it to Cam. Say Cam. Yeah. What do I do with this money? What do I do? He has talked to you about that. He's giving you options, which is awesome. Yeah, it is fun. He keeps one of me invest in his Arbonne. Uh-huh. thing. So I think I'm just going to put it all in that. It's a, it's a, there's like FICO, F-I-C-O, then there's Arbon, R-B-O-N. See, some said an index fund.

He said guaranteed 200%. Yeah, there's Vanguard, and then there's Arbon. You'll be fine. No matter. I'm excited. Yeah, and you get a ton of boxes, like, along with it. Yeah. You will have things to take with you to Phoenix.

I'm joking. Cam's a proud sponsor. He didn't say anything about Arbon. No, he's a advocate guy. What are some of the other ones? Arbon. What was like the... Beauty counter.

What's the one that, like, is like, the classic? Monet. No, but like the everything. Like, I have a mentor and they meet with you and... Northwestern Mutual. Oh, what, the one that's like... I can't think of like the... Oh, gosh, it's killing me.

Like, the one that like... Like, the class... I know, I know there's one I'm forgetting. I don't know. Oh, oh, uh, uh... What, it's the... Is it the beauty one? No, I think it's like everything.

Like, I think it's like food supplements. You can get anything. It's just cheaper than everywhere else. I thought that was that. advocate here. Well, that too. What is the one? I'm thinking of like the classic.

There's one big one. Like, oh, yeah. Oh, my gosh. I've tried to think of Trey's song. Erbilife, but that's not what I'm thinking of. Oh, that's good. I did popular MLMs and I said, do you mean popular LLMs? Chat Chabut.

Cod, Jim, I. No. LLM. MLMs. I don't know what an LLM is. Something language model. Oh, okay. Learning.

Mary Kay. Avon. Oh, dude. Amway. Amway. Amway. Amway. It's Amway.

Amway. Yeah, he's Amway guy. That's the way. We got that. True or false, Jake. When you moved into this house, did you did you even have a truck

to move stuff? Like, I feel like often when I've seen you moved, you've literally moved into your car. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Didn't have much.

You got some first. First time having more than a car's worth of belongings. Really accumulated a lot. Have you guys thought about that? Like, are you guys going to, yeah, keep? Well, I'm sure you've thought some, but like, you're trying to keep the couches? You're trying to just be like, let's just get new couches.

Because that stuff is the stuff that takes up a lot of the room. Yeah, I think Rachel likes our furniture, and it's still in good shape. So we probably should keep it. Because even the, okay, what's the alternative? Selling it? Well, that's kind of a hassle. Now I've got to slowly nickel and die, you know, piece together all these spaces of marketplace.

So it's like, oh, it is easier. Just keep it. But no, I don't think we will end up renting a furnished house. Yeah. So let's keep some furniture. It's great. You know, everyone I talked to, whether it's a real estate agent at Phoenix or, I mean, anyone, they go, ooh, moving to Phoenix in the summer. Good luck.

Yeah. It's going to be pretty hot there. They're like, good luck doing anything outdoors in the afternoon there. Like, that's what summertime is. It's hot everywhere in the afternoon. Yeah, that's. Like, I've never shot a Friday pickleball video in July at 2 p.m. You would say, let's do it earlier, so it's cool.

This is just what you do. Good luck doing it earlier. Good luck waking up. Everyone acts like we are just insane for moving there in the summer. It's like, we know. Yeah, we know. It's hot. It's the desert.

We like it. Yeah. Yeah, we know. And it's honestly, have you been? I've been to Vegas one time. I think it was August because it was for a fantasy football draft. And so, you know, yeah, August is like whatever, like the most hot month of the year, right? July, August. And it was like, it was definitely hot for sure. Of course it was. But it was not the same.

There's obviously humidity changes so much. Yeah. Like you walk outside in Vegas, it's like, whoa, that's like hot on my skin. But it's not like I can't breathe. I don't know. It's so interesting. Because when I was there two weeks ago, I played two hour session of pickleball. And like, yes, I'm hot. The heat index is 97 or whatever. But like my hair was mainly dry. And like, I know it's a dry heat. It's been a meme. It's been a joke. We've heard it for 20. 20 years, I know it's a dry heat, but I'm still having trouble understanding it. Yeah. How am I not sweatier in the heat?

Like you would sweat more in 75 degree weather here. Yes. Yeah, it's weird. They're coming. They're coming forward. They are slowly. The roofers getting closing. I am going to miss just like a warm summer night, like a humid summer night.

That is my ideal temperature. It's like 80 degrees in humid. Yeah, Catherine claims that's like the most redeeming thing that Kansas has over Texas. It's like in Texas, it doesn't get. cool enough while still being comfortably warm. Because it's just as humid there too. It's just crazy hot in Texas and the summertime. Whereas Kansas, it's like, man, it's 78, 82 degrees, warm summer night, like in Kansas

and it's perfect out on the porch kind of thing. Yeah. So obviously summer will be hot. Winter is going to be, the first winter there is where it's really going to like be like, this is awesome. Because how cold does it get? I've been to Phoenix a couple times. One time was in February.

and I don't remember Phoenix I remember going to the Grand Canyon and being so cold but that's different right like that might be at elevation I don't know I don't know I mean they still have a winter like it will still be cold in the mornings and cold at night but comparatively

but at 2 p.m. on a winter day it could be 60 or something you know so that's gonna be nice sounds all right so yeah we'll see yeah just gotta go down there and try to just build the business and yeah have some fun figure out core values.

Be hot. Pillars. When you're, when you're doing core, how you figure out your core values yet? Like are you talking, we're talking writing some down? Are we talking one word?

We're talking sentences? Are we talking one word that then you have a subsection that's sentences? Yeah, it's like a bullet or subject and then a little description. Is the subject one word?

Three words or less. Okay. Here's what I wrote down yesterday at First Watch. You're a first watch guy, dude? I love First Watch. You go and solo first watch? I'll do solo, I'll do duos, I'll do squads.

Yeah? Yeah, you name it, I'll do it. You get a booth? Wherever they sit me. I'm not picky. Oh, man, I would be picky. I love a booth. I love a booth, dude.

If it's busy, then I definitely am not picky. No, no, no, of course. Yesterday it was not that busy and I'm there by myself. So they sat me at an individual table and I thought, I could go for a little more room. Didn't say anything. Sure. But maybe I should have asked for food. I think it's the confinement.

It's like you feel like you're in your own little space in a booth. Yeah. You know, no one's bothering me. Yeah. No one sees what I'm doing. I love a booth. A booth in the corner is nice. I wrote, they're kind of like biblical in a way, which, hey, I think that's good.

Bring joy. Friday will bring joy to people across the world through our products, our content, and personal connections we make with people. I said, lead with humility. Okay. Teachable, coachable, yada yada. I said to earn attention. Someone's time is not something that we're entitled to.

Okay. Every video, product launch, email. should be intentional and worth engaging with. We will not beg for attention. We will earn it by making things that are genuinely interesting. That's all I have so far. Cool. Oh.

And then be hot. Well, move to Phoenix. But humble. Get hot. Hot with conviction. Hot humility. Hot to trot. That's exciting, man.

I hope it's great. I think it will be great. And I want to publicly say something nice about you. Let me talk about your back. Yeah. Thank you. Let me talk in front of your back real quick. Okay.

Because as I've talked to, I say, I have been saying nice things behind your back. Now I need to say it in front of your back. Okay. Other people are like, ooh, how's Brad feel about this? Like, I get that a lot. Sure. And I say, oh, Brad's great. He hasn't raised a single concern.

Yeah. In fact, you were one of the first people I were told when it was a consideration, the slightest consideration six months ago, I told you. October, November or something like that? Yeah, maybe. And I was like, just so I want to tell you first. Yeah. Because we do a business together that there is a chance of us,

petitioning moving. And I like started to elaborate. You're like, oh, dude, it's fine. Do what you got to do. Yeah. You're like, yeah, go build the, if you need to go build the business, like, we'll be fine. Right. Yeah. You were, yeah. I was like, well, yeah. I was like, I don't want to stop you from doing that. Yeah. Why would I? Yeah. You're welcome. So I've been saying that behind your back. Well, behind your back, I'm not learning new words to say about you, buddy. Oh, yeah. If you don't know it, stop. Oh, man. It's exciting.

It's exciting times. We've all had our experiences now. It's time for me to talk about it. Express lane talk. Oh, yeah. Welcome to the big leagues, champ. Drove down to pick up Boe yesterday. Express lane talk.

And I was on 69 Highway. It's like a TikTok trend. And yeah, I did not use it, but I witnessed it. You saw Tyman going 105 miles an hour next to you? It was, you know, whatever. 8.45 in the morning, so it's not busy at all. Got home at 3 something, so I'm not busy either at that time. But like, I had an unbelievably hard time and not getting in the left lane.

It's like, that was the hard thing for me. It's just empty lane, just asking for it. And I'm not, like, I like being the fastest person, or at least like one of the top, top 20% of the people on the highway as far as my speed goes. Same. And I like being in the left lane because of that. And I did not feel like I was in the left lane because there was in lane next to me. Like there was more I could be doing. It's kind of like the like whenever the new iPhone came out that had three cameras and people are like, you know,

people have this weird like phobia with like threes and all this stuff. I felt that or something like like it was like I don't know why, but I am uneasy about being here. And that's wide open. Even though I didn't have any reason to get over in that lane. I just, I found myself wanting to. That's funny. Like no one's in front of you.

Like you're doing everything you want to do on the road. Yeah. But I'm just not as far over as I could be. Yes. It was like the traffic is completely good, but I don't like this. I don't know. There was something weird about it. That's funny.

So, but yeah. But you got to see it. The double white lines are thick. Double white lines. Those baddies are thick. And 95 cents is what it said for me yesterday. They must be surging. I think they're slowly like getting people addicted to it.

And then they're like, psych, 280. That's not a bad strategy. I'm glad I got in while it was 40 cents. Yeah. You like invest in it. Yeah. No, no, no, my license plates at 40 cents. What if?

That would be a good strategy, honestly. Yeah, that's when I bought in. Every hundred people it goes up to... $0.95? $0.95 cents. Yeah, if you took the whole, like, from one... Like, terminal to terminal or whatever. Yeah.

Anyway. Time you're taking it? Not today. I was... Yeah, I was like... It was kind of because I was running kind of early, which was weird. I was like...

Because I think this, the first... maybe the second time I took it, which I think it's only been twice, I was like five minutes late leaving home, and I got here like 45 seconds after 9. So express lane kind of magical, but I didn't need to this morning. So yeah. Jake, you're timing.

You can sit this one out. Yeah, of course. Do some quick math. Let's say, timing, how many miles away do you live? 15. I'm so sorry. What did you say? He was checking out.

He checked out. I told him to. I got a text. And I was like, well, time to look at these. How many miles away from me? I don't even know. 15 or so, let's say. I think it's more than that.

Is it? Right. Let me just, I'm kind of curious. Let's say, let's say it's 20. Okay. Jake, if timing goes 90 miles an hour instead of 75, how much can he realistically take off of his time? Oh, yeah.

If he's on the highway for, let's just say 20, keep it easy. Yeah. Ish. So a 15 mile per hour difference. Is that right time, 20 miles? It's 26. Okay, 25 miles or whatever you want to do. Sure.

Yeah, how do we figure out the math here? 15 miles. I don't know. In one hour, he can go 15 miles further. I know you guys want me to be a part of this, but I'll let you guys do it. You can, timing. You're welcome.

I feel like me and Steve Kup have sat down and done this before, and we've, like, agreed that there's no point in speeding. But I don't know how you get to the right answer here. If you go too slow to South Dakota, there's a point in speeding, I'll tell you. It's amazing. Yeah, I guess something like that, like going to work. Yeah, it's like very minimal, but yeah, going cross-country, 10 miles an hour is a pretty big difference, I bet. Yeah, because you're rolling 15 miles an hour faster, so you're getting there.

Yeah, let's see. It's tough. You almost need to do it in like 60s. Like, if you had somewhere to go, if it was an hour away and you drove 60. 60 instead of 90. Or if it was 60 miles away and you drove 60 miles an hour, you'd get there in exactly one hour. Right. And let's say you did 90.

Time to do it in chat GPT real quick. It was 60 miles in it. specifically my calculation? No, do it for 20 miles. Okay. I don't know. I'm not going to be able to do this in my head. I know.

It's kind of, yeah. That's tricky. Time and numbers don't really go together. Time resets after 60. Numbers reset after 100. That's too bad. Yeah. And then miles.

What? Yeah. 5,280? Good. Yes. Oh, deja vu. I think that's a new thing for me. Is the question like,

I would usually drive 75, but I'm driving 90? Yep. For the whole thing or just like, do I say a five-mile? stretch. Oh, just keep it simple. I don't know. But I'm going 90. Let's just say for, I mean, even, yeah, even for a small or a large stretch. This episode is brought to you by FedEx. These days, the power move isn't having a big metallic credit card to drop on the check at a corporate launch. The real power move is leveling up your business with FedEx intelligence and accessing one of the biggest data networks powered by of the biggest delivery networks.

Level up your business with FedEx, the new power move. Let's see. It's thinking. Let's break it down cleanly. At 75 miles an hour, time, 20 divided by 75. 0.2667 hours, that's about 16 minutes. Okay. At 90 miles an hour, time, 20 divided by 90 equals 0.2-2-2 hours.

That's about 13 minutes and 20 seconds. time difference roughly two minutes and 40 seconds faster so you're flying down the highway you get there two minutes fast yeah like the whole time and that's that's like just not accounting for lights that could easily actually going 90 like the whole time the whole time yeah like you usually just stop at three stoplights on the way versus getting greens on those I was just about to say that yeah and they're real world scenario yeah there are stoplights or there are there variables where it's like because once you get off the highway to come to our house it's at least eight stoplights Yeah. Yeah. That's the difference in driving 15 miles an hour faster, depending on what lights you get hit with.

Yeah. So, you're safe out there, guys. That's right. We're a seatbelt. I just, yeah, it's funny because it's like, yeah, it doesn't worth it. But it's like, well, why do I, why did I cut, why did I shave off four minutes? I don't know. Like, was that, I guess it is. Maybe sometimes it's a little bit luck, though.

It is that not much of a shaving off. I don't know. But it felt like a lot. You should, that should be the next calculation. And you don't have necessarily do this one. You can just do this one. anecdotally when you're driving next time. Yeah. Just press start and stop every time you're at a stoplight and see how much time that is. Yeah.

Because I bet you're surprised at how much that would affect. Like if you just drove straight for two miles at 45 miles an hour versus stopping four times. Yeah. Like how much difference that is getting. Yeah. From the exit to my house, there's nine stoplights. The difference of getting seven greens versus two greens. Is that at five minutes total?

I don't know. Even if you're going 30 miles. an hour for two miles. That would be what, four minutes, right? Good. And so even if you stop once going 50 miles an hour, you could easily add another two minutes to that or something. It's not worth it, guys. I'm thinking about it. I think I got all greens. And then you guys think about trains. Trains. I freaking Johnson Drive, dude. I think I got all greens from the highway to your house this morning. And what happened? Did you get here on time or earlier? I was five minutes early. There you go. If so facto. Yeah.

Hey, people were wondering last week if I regretted eating the beans from Main Street Roasters. People are like, I don't want to know what happened to you after that. I'll tell you right now, nothing because I'm used to Main Street Roosters in my veins. I'll tell you what happened. Productivity. I'll tell you what happened. I felt better afterwards. Yeah, you don't.

You probably couldn't handle it. Yeah. Other people might leave a bitter taste in their mouth. Not me. Yeah. You ever seen the movie Limitless? That's what Brad turned into. Yeah.

Speaking of cars, let's play a little game called, What Would You Do with John Quinones? Is that his name? The guy from, To Catcher Predator? Something like that. Oh, no. The guy from what you would you do? Yeah, you had me in a blinder there for a second,

but yeah, I think that was the show. Yeah, right? Have you seen the show? No, but I've seen, well, I've seen maybe a couple clips and like the punchline of like, I'm John Kenyonez. That's a tough last night. What would you do?

I'm sitting in my car, about to go eat at Kane. This was after last week when we talked about the bracket. I was like, I got it. I'm sitting there just recently parked on my phone, about to go inside, and then a woman gets back in her car next to me, opens the door and hits it against my mirror. And so then I kind of look up, and she kind of looks right up at me. What do you do when you catch someone hitting your car with their door?

I'm trying to think, hit your mirror. Yeah. I guess I would I would okay I don't know I think I would I would at least I would I would immediately say it's okay like I would immediately be like I'm not a jerk I'm nice but then I might get out of my car and look

just in case it's like oh this is actually kind of bad maybe we should think about this that's what I would probably but my initial thing would just be like immediately like I'm nice I know that you didn't do it on purpose no problem but we might need to to address this farther. You know what I mean? Like, I'm nice. I'm not. It's like you were talking to like a like a barking dog. Hey, hey. Hey, no, I smell my scent. Here, smell the back of my hand. Yeah.

Yeah, I don't know. I would. Yeah, that's what I would do. What would you do, Tom? My first thought was like, I'm, I would just be, because if she is not immediately like, oh, I'm like, I'm so sorry. When she like, like notices you, like if she doesn't seem to care, then I might, I mean, maybe I'd be like, hey, you hit my, I would feel like if she didn't

immediately start apologizing, maybe she just didn't know she hit my mirror or something like that. I guess that's what I kind of expect, like you would say sorry, right? If she makes eye contact. But assuming that she's like, I'm so sorry, oh, it's totally fine.

I would also take a look though. Yeah. But I also just don't, as long as it's like, Not like, oh, you just shattered my, my, like, the way that I can check my blind spot or not, whatever. Yeah. Like, as long as it's not, I'm not a huge cosmetic. I was going to say, I think I, I think I've tried to like really take the mindset as much as I can.

Even with our nice things, like our cars are some of our nicest things we have. Yeah. It's like people are more important than things. I tell my kids that all the time. Like, people are more important than things. Yeah. Like, yeah, we have a car and we have four kids. It's going to have scratch or like it's going to get dinged or whatever.

But sometimes it's like, dang, like, this is a bummer. My dad the other day, I think he was getting in his car at a coffee shop or something. When was crazy. And his car, like, nailed, like the door of, I think it was a rangerover, like a nice car. And he, like, went into the coffee shop, found the guy. Wow. And was like, hey, I'm really sorry. I did this.

And this guy, like, filed an insurance claim. And it was going to be like $4,000 to fix it. It's like some custom. paint job for this. Jeez. Blame it on the wind. Make the wind to pay for it. I know.

My dad's like, oh, man. You know, my dad, he's not a fit. He did the right thing. He's an audible man. But it's like, oh. Like, he could have just left. And like, this guy probably wouldn't even maybe no.

I don't know, whatever. Yeah. But I'll have to say, yeah. I don't think I would confront them if they didn't say anything, though. I don't, I don't think I would go that far time. And I would have just been like, man, that's too bad that they didn't say something. But I guess I'm just going to, unless it's like, well, the mirror is crap. Like these days, my mirror, I'm sure Jake's mirror, like, has sensors and, like, has, like, blind spot indicators and all this stuff.

Like, whatever. Like, it's like, that could be kind of an expensive fix if it's broken. Yeah. So maybe I'd say something. I don't know. I don't know what I would say if I did confront them if they didn't say anything. I'd probably just, it would be so awkward if they didn't say anything. Yeah.

It's really hard to do that. See what this person did because I'm just like, I guess I can just look back at him and be like, all right. and then just get out and look at it. As a nice person, it's really hard to confront somebody like that. Without feeling like I'm saying something mean. Like even though, like, hey. You got him to smell the back of your hand.

Probably, even if they were just like looked at me, flipped me off, walked away, I'd still like wait until they were gone to like look at it to not look like I was concerned. I might be a little scared, yeah, about physical violence if they're flipping you off. Yeah. Anyway, what did you, what happened with you?

She gets, to get in her car, she, like, kind of rams it into the mirror, and then, like, it's resting against my mirror as she's, like, getting it. It's, like, they're flush with each other. Okay. And then when she closes the door, I think is when she realizes, like, I think she knew she hit my car and didn't care. But that's what you realize is, oh, crap. Oh, somebody's in his car.

So I'm looking at her. She's looking at me, and I'm just kind of waiting for her to make the first move. You know, me, slight smile. And then. I just froze. She didn't do anything. I didn't do anything. She's pulled out.

Really? Yeah, I totally whipped out, man. Was there, like, scratches on your mirror? I'm realizing now I forgot to look. I was so excited about Kane. That's a great point, though. It was like, you forgot to look. You don't care.

Yeah, it was a very brief moment where I was like, oh, was there a better way to handle that? I was kind of waiting for her to start the conversation. And then I would have been like, oh, my gosh, no, you're totally fine. I think until you put your hubcap back on, like your free hubcap cap, you don't. I'm not allowed. You can't, you can't complain. about a scratch on your car. That is so fair. Yeah, no. You can't, you can't talk out of both sides of your

mouth here. No, I can't. Yeah, I was kind of waiting for her to just address like, oh, gosh, sorry about that. She just looked at me. I thought, eh, I saw something interesting. Yeah, that's, yeah. I mean, everyone's, I've, I've accidentally bumped somebody else's car with my door or something, and I'll check and it's fine. I'm not going to, like, worry about it. I don't know, but not ever intentional. Yeah. You, I saw something while driving the other day. And for whatever reason, this feels more wrong than it actually maybe once I think about it is. And maybe you guys have seen this.

Maybe this is normal. But I had never seen this invention before. Basically, this guy pulled into a parking spot. Guess where I was, retail rebel. And instead, like, whatever those, like, whatever you want to call the flip down mirrors that you got, you know, like the sun visor that you have on the question. Oh, I see. Yeah. Yeah.

He had something that looked kind of like that right in front of his face. it looked like it came down from the ceiling though right in front of his face and it was like a shade like sunglasses but it was a screen so he didn't have sunglasses on he just had a massive screen in front of his face while he's driving I can imagine it but gosh it's it's I was like that's dangerous wait screen uh whatever screen like or like like like a like a sunglasses basically like a sunglasses panel in front of his face I my Uber from the Phoenix

pickleball facility to the airport. She had one of those. Really? We talked about a little bit. She was like, yeah, I have like contact, or no. A thousand percent. That's what it's polarized sun visor.

Because she had glasses and she was like, my kid, my, you know, my, well, what was, I don't know. She, she like just, you know, couldn't put sunglasses on because she uses glasses. And so she's like, this works.

Yeah, I don't know. This is a pretty cool invention. Then again, actually, I don't know how I feel about it. Because this is just doing what sunglasses were. do. It does make sense to block out the sun even further while still being able to see through it. Because the sun visor is like, yes, it completely blocks the sun. It completely blocks your vision, too,

though. Yeah. Yes. What did you say about it being dangerous? It just feels, it just feels dangerous to me. Like, I don't know, something, even if it's clear, something in front of your face, and then you have another thing. It's like, it messes, at least with me as far as, like, depth perception or like something, I don't know. Like, obviously you have the windshield. That's in front of your face. And you have to, like, adjust your brain for that. Yeah. But then you have a second thing that's not like, if it's on your, if it's attached like sunglasses to your face,

no big deal. You kind of forget about it. Yeah. But like, it's like this and then you have to take your account to this and then you have to take into account the thing even farther out. I don't know. There seems like the brain would mess with me that way.

And then like you're checking your blind spot going in and out of the dark. Oh, sunny. You know, it's not a 360. Yeah. It also just seemed uncomfortable. I've never seen that. I don't know if,

like you couldn't move your face too far up. or back. I want to hear more about, like, when you're looking through a windshield, you're like, okay, I'll be like push my eyes through this.

Is, or like, I think you kind of, you, you're probably right, but I just don't know. It's like if you watch, your phone is straight up

and you lay down to watch something, you're true. Your mind like changes your ratio or whatever. Yeah. I think it's the same thing with depth perception with stuff like that. Yeah. Because you are looking.

And I'm sure your brain, you know, acclimates to it, but I'm like, I don't know, it just seems weird. It just looked so wrong. It looked so dangerous. Like this guy just pulls up and like crawls around the corner with this thing right in front of his face. I'll tell you what would be dangerous is almost that exactly. He's got a phone, he's got a camera on the other side of the Sun visor that completely blocks the sun and he's got a monitor on his side. So you can see what the camera sees. Sun is completely blocked. There's just a slight delay and no depth perception. Just a camera. Yeah.

Camera on that side, monitor on your side. Yeah, that'd be wild. That would be dangerous. They have those rear-of-view mirrors that are cameras. That's what the cyber director. We drove to Dallas because you can't see out the back. So the rear-view mirror is just a camera. I didn't like that one bit. Really?

Okay. I think it's a cool idea for like if you're having a trailer or whatever, like in your truck. Like you got some back there. Yeah. But not. It's not the real thing. Not the real thing. Yeah.

For whatever reason, it's like I can't trust that as much. Yeah. It's just different. Yeah. It can be tampered with. You never know. Right. So anyway, I was Florida.

by this. And I thought that that's a terrible idea. But then you think about it more, it's like, is it? Is it really that different than sunglasses? Can I, permission to share a good idea with you? Oh, of course. Well, this could be split into a section called emails I've got from Gosses this week.

Okay. Several really good. One, not so good. Let's talk about the good one. Okay. I've seen this guy's like name and profile picture for forever. And so it was nice to get a little correspondence with him. Brandon Myers.

Sound familiar? You recognize the face probably. So he looks like West and Weeby to me. Yes. Is that like? Yes. Like in my head, I'm like, if I make Brandon Myers, I'm just going to meet West and Weeby with a different voice.

Like I hope you're tan, like you are in the photo because that's what I'm imagining. So he said a bunch of different things in this email to us, but the basis of it is, I've been a software engineer for 13 years. I think it'd be really cool to contribute to Ghostrunners with my skill set. So two main things he's pitching. One, he was like, Jake, I know you've mentioned about doing a some kind of scoreboard app that's like live on the TV for the ghosty getaway, some type of like, you know, physical bank or something.

He's like, I could easily like do that with you guys with the trip currency, whatever, if that's something you wanted to do. Okay. But then he goes, on top of that, I've also had the idea for a ghostrunner's app. The concept is something similar to the Facebook group, but without some of the downsides. You've both mentioned how easy it is to get distracted by everything else on Facebook last episode. Mm-hmm.

And how rough the search can be. That's what got me thinking about building something. better for you. I put together a demo with the basic feed and a few features custom of the podcast. So I haven't even got through this yet. He just sent in this morning. But he basically already like built us like half of an app. Cool. And it's sweet. Really? I don't know what this would cost or what you do. But I mean, like just looking at the bottom, it's like there's a feed obviously that looks a lot like Facebook. You could post pictures, videos, polls. You can react to it. You can comment on it, whatever.

And then tabs at the bottom instead of being Facebook dating or Messenger or whatever else is on Facebook. book. It's like, I think we could put like our actual episodes could be on there, like the audio and video. He's got merch being one of the tabs in there. Okay. And then like your own profile, you know, whatever else. So, oh, wow. He sent that at 848. So it was like literally right before he started recording. So I haven't really gotten to, he sent a six minute video. I haven't watched any of it. But buzzing on the idea. Shout out. That's, shout out, Brandon. Thanks for doing that, even if we don't end up doing anything else. That's pretty cool that you thought of us. That is really cool. I remember back in the day when somebody was like, yeah, I'm creating an app. I was like, you're the most smart

person I've ever met in my life. Oh, yeah. So you're, yeah, you're Jeff Bezos. Holy cow, you're going to, you should, you should take this to whatever, some, some cool conference. And you should take this to Ted. Go to Ted with this, man. You're going to be on Ted with this, bro. But yeah, that's really cool. And now it's like, things have apps that you didn't row had apps, but still. I always get ads for that base 44 company that's like, hey, just we'll build an app for you. It's with AI. Claude, I think, does a good app.

A lot of people are cloud in these days. You're the first person telling me about it. I'm proud of that. Yeah. I was told by other people that are smarter than, still, more techy than me, but. You knew enough to pass it forward. They are the same people that teach me all the link, like the shortcut

lingo, Reddit lingo. Yeah. But I've never. FWIW, Cloud's pretty good. TBH. Oh, yeah. That's sweet, though. We can talk more about that off the podcast.

What's a bad idea that you've heard of? Just bad email was when I got I saw it come through Saturday morning on the way to the pickupball tournament a person had bought merch from us and wanted and hadn't received confirmation of purchase

Okay I didn't respond right away Saturday I'm on way to pickable a tournament And then yesterday morning which is then Tuesday morning That person emails and again And is like very upset Oh no

And questions I had the same first and last name as your mom. It's a common Georgian. Yeah. Yeah, it probably wasn't then. Yeah. But it's very upset that they have not heard back from us. They question the legitimacy of everything we're doing, yada, yada.

I sent a nice hamburger message. Hey, if you're ordering podcast merch for us, I'm sure you're a huge fan and we really appreciate the support. Middle. You don't sound like someone who listens to our podcast. because what do you mean? You think every person who's bought merch has been scammed

and they just are keeping it quiet for seven years? Also email me on Saturday morning. It's Tuesday morning. That seems reasonable. It's a small podcast. Yeah. Once again,

I hope this merch brings you joy and I hope you love it. It should be there by next week, yada yada. The person emails back. Yeah, so I don't listen to the podcast. You were right. I was like, I knew it.

There's like, is my mom or dad or something? Yeah, it was like for a family member or something. I was like, there's no way you can listen to the podcast and send an email like that. It's true.

no way. It's true. There's no way. Yeah. We have such a great pulse on our audience. They're like, I should have, I should have, I should have already pretty sure, but I should have just, like, known with absolute certainty. One of you has a birthday coming up. It's probably your aunt or uncle that said that is. I tried to keep it dinner. I don't know who this is. He, she. Uh-huh. That's pretty funny. Because, yeah, I tried to look them up on the Facebook group. You know, I can't find this person. I'm like, yeah, I don't think they would speak to us this way if those had the podcast.

Right. Yeah. They would at least... To their credit, they apologize. and they feel a lot of remorse. That's good. Yeah. I don't know anything about what I'm messaging right now. Yeah. Yeah. All I know is that I haven't received anything yet.

Uh-huh. Yeah, we live in a world where we need things right away. We need our orders to come in the next day. Amazon has ruined e-commerce. Amazon has messed us up. Yeah, just social media has made us, or like, texting. Like, we just expect, yeah. If I text somebody at 6 p.m.,

and I don't hear back from them until 11 a.m.? What the heck? And it's like, well, really, you know, they're working from, they're supposed to start work as at early. It's like 8 a.m. Like, they got back to you in three hours if you look at it that way. Yeah, yeah. Like, that's not ridiculous. Yeah.

You know. I called him 49 times. What's a big deal? Dude. It's an answer. Hey, give Miguel some credit. He came back a few times to do things that he said he was going to do without me prompting him. Following through.

And I had to prompt him for the second time. But he came back just like in like a random day and just did some stuff. And I was like, okay, Miguel. You said you were going to do that and you did it. All right. It's fun seeing some ghosties share like their own, sometimes literally concrete stories or like, yeah,

we had a guy paint half of my parents' house, never came back, still have the ladder. Yeah. Yeah, it's just funny. Some of those things work. Hopefully they get about half the roof done

and decide that's good. Yeah, right. Yeah, anyway, so. Yeah, Brandon,

I'm fired up about this. I want to read through or like watch the rest of your video. For sure. That's fun. I think that'd be fun. I mean, yeah,

that's cool. We got a lot of people on the Facebook group. It's tough to migrate people. That's the only, I don't like being that guy, but that was my thought. It was like, if we change it, it's not going to be the same. It might be different in a good way, but it's not going to be the same. Yeah, and maybe it does need to serve a different purpose because it's going to be tough. You're like, let's do everything we're doing on this app instead of Facebook.

Right. But it would be good. If we had 4,000 emails for people, that'd be pretty sweet to like be able to reach out to people and give them news that way too. So if we could data mine... I thought about that. We're not... We're not strategic very well at all with this spot.

No. Oh, we could do so much more. If we made it more of a full-time thing, like, great. Let's dig into all that stuff. But it's like, people are signing up already without us needing to send out emails and text last.

Yeah. It's like everything is so organic. It's so nice. Right. This is every... Recording this right now is, it's the marketing. It's the marketing.

advertising, it's the sales, it's everything. Just keep doing this. Just keep doing it. I'm not leaving. That's right. Well, I'm kind of leaving, but I'm not leaving. I'm leaving. I'm not, yeah.

It's when I asked Peter, I go, and what do we do about this room? And he was like, I think it's kind of cool. I think you can leave at a podcast studio during Picture Day. And then he looked down on these cords, he goes, I might want to clean those up a little bit. And he looks over there. You might want to clean that up a little bit. Oh, he looks over here to the massive pile of garbage.

Yeah. Yeah, I'd clean that up. But, you know, it's not like we're going to, like, tear this down or repaint or anything. He's like, no, I think you can leave it. I think it's kind of fun. We should just... Free advertising. Make sure people know it's ghost for his podcast when they come tour of the house.

Maybe I'll just unplug everything. Have the cameras in the tripod, the... Yeah, yeah, yeah. Core value tripod's everywhere. But just, like, make it look less messy. Just make it look wireless. Yeah. Make it wireless.

Completely wireless. Bluetooth podcast set up. Once I find Ramos in the wires. This happens to me twice a year that I can recall. I R.C. Maybe it happens way more that I don't remember. But last night I had a dream and I was so sure it was real. And it was a good one.

And it was like a mediocre realization that when you're dreaming it sounds so normal. And then you say it later. It's like, oh. So dumb. Like how do I believe that? Here's the reality. Here's what I learned about in my dream.

So got this Airbnb house. It's got two bathrooms in it. It's got three bedrooms in it. And last night in my dream, I discovered there's another bedroom and a full bathroom right here. I just didn't notice it because I didn't like pay attention to this closet that leads into this. Oh, cool. I woke up thinking, I can't wait to tell Catherine.

That's a good. That adds value. That adds square footage. Like, yeah, I didn't update this stuff, but it's still in pretty good shape. And people, you know, I can do it later. And I was like, I can't wait tell Catherine. And I woke up and I was like, you dofess. I'm starting to think.

I don't think that's real. How would I lose that? Oh, that's such a perfect example of it, though. It's so believable. Anything. Yeah. It's so believable. Yep.

You know, outdated pink walls, you know, but it's like, that's fine. They're kind of, it's kind of charming. For an Airbnb, that's cool. Who cares? So, yeah. That's so good. It just happens every once in a while. And it's not like, oh, that was crazy.

I was, you know, whatever. Married to some supermod. It's like, I don't, you believe those sometimes, too. It's like, well, that's not real when you wake up. You know immediately. This one was like, it fooled me for a second, even when I woke up. Yeah. Did I talk about it last week?

I had a dream that, like, a Friday pickleball video somehow got deleted, or you had to delete something, you deleted the wrong one. And in my dream, I'm thinking through like, that's okay. This is okay because then we'll, our next video will be like, why we had to delete our last video. You know, I've got a title of thumb-no for the next video, and I'm ready to hit the ground running when I wake up.

And I was like, none of that happened. It's all a ruse. Yeah, it feels so real. Ruse? Ruge. Moulon Rouge. It was all Moulon Rouge. Yeah.

ruse. I think that's a word. Yeah. It sounds right. I bought it. The ruse. Let's use that more often. Okay. All right. Anyway, just kind of bummed. Man, that would have been, that would have been, that would have added some value. Gosh, that would have been nice.

It would have been great. The cleaners found it. Yeah. Anyway, that's funny. We, uh, I, I almost want to tell the story with Rachel here, but I mean, she works. She'll, she won't be here for an episode. but when we went and looked at a house, I told you guys the story off the podcast, but we went and looked at this house

and there were... In Phoenix? Yeah, we went to a house in Phoenix two weeks ago, a rental, and here just some of the bullet points I remember. For one, I was like, can we see this house on Sunday? The realtor's name was Nancy True,

which I thought was fun. I was like, this was going to be some sort of mystery. Yeah, the realtor was Nancy True. The contractor was a cyclopedia Trown. Charity boys Who lived there She's like Sunday's no good

Can you give me to Wednesday They need more time Or something like what does that mean? I show up to this house Every other house we looked at Is like empty It's vacant This is it very much lived in house

Very much lived in house Like oh like they had like stuff In the refrigerator They had stuff in the refrigerator Is that what you mean by lived in? When we left I go Rachel How many people were in that house

And we start counting We go, all right, the woman, all right, her sister-in-law, their kids, her kids, the grandma, and then those two random people in the casita. So that's 11. So that's 11 people that were in the house that we just looked at. You're talking about like breathing people in the house, not like, oh, 11 people lived there that we saw their beds. I just got done seeing 11 different people.

You did a small comedy set for this house. It was the worst house to her possible. I mean, we got two huge labs in small candles, just barking up a storm. Babies are crying. I mean, we're trying to. Original hardwood floors. This is cool.

This is cool. Looking anywhere other than all the mess. Yeah, so the fixtures stay. Roo! Roo! Ro! The sink was overflowing. I don't know what this white liquid.

It looked like porridge. It looked like just nursery rhyme porridge, you know, Goldilocks style in this. bowl. I don't know what that was. Who's disgusting. There's just trash. And it's like a nice home. It's like this would have been great. One bedroom we didn't even look into. She's like, sorry, my kids are still sleep. I don't want you to wake them up. Yeah, that's fine. You got people sleeping there. There were two bedrooms where people were sleeping. How early was it? It was at 8.30. But I didn't set the time. No. Yeah, you could have. That doesn't sound like you to be like, we have to do 8.30. First thing, I want to see it. Nancy, true, though. I want to see it in morning light.

Yeah. Two bedrooms, we still saw them, even though people were sleeping. Rachel and I kind of took turns. There was one where she's like, oh, my mother's in this one. So this is like this old frail grandma. Rachel peaked in that room and Rachel just goes like, I never want to see a grandma like that again. No.

You don't, I shouldn't see a grandma in that position. Like, writhing around under a blanket. Oh, bad image. And you know the dogs are louder when you open that door. You made the point off the podcast last week. You're like, I don't want to ever see anyone horizontal. I don't want to, I don't want to, I don't want to, no, did I even horizontal? Just in your bed?

Like, I don't, like, if you and Rachel, like, we're sitting in your bed and you're like, hey, yeah, we're in here. Come on in. It's so inappropriate. I would, I would open the door and I would have a conversation with you, but I would not cross that threshold into your room. That's, that's as close as I'm getting. And I would feel uncomfortable the whole time.

Oh, you guys liking the new roof? Like, I would rather, I would rather not do this. We can just, we can just talk on the phone. Just put it on speaker. and we'll talk later. I don't, I don't feel comfortable at all right now.

Like, timing could be full, timing could be wearing jeans in a hoodie. Yes, if he's under the sheets, though, it's weird. Yeah.

Get out. I don't want to see Diamond in bed. Don't worry about it, man. We'll talk later. Don't worry about it. It's not necessary. He was forcing this on us.

I mean, they're asleep, but just be quiet. You peek in. Like, I don't want to pick in. How good is this room that I have to look at it?

What am I going to see in here that I can't see the Zillin? Also, So I walked in and in five seconds knew I wasn't taking this house. And it really was like a good house. It's like, oh, this old like separate casita, which, you know, just means like a mother-in-law suite type thing. It's like, oh, that's an amazing studio office.

That'd be perfect. But some guy with neck tattoos who doesn't live here is spending the night just last night. Yeah. Why? Because of the porridge. He heard about the good porridge and he wanted to come out. So that was my turn. I got to see that room and I saw him in bed.

And then he came out later. came out later because he had to go to the bathroom. Oh, no bathroom in the CETA? No. Okay. No Bono in the Cita. We got out of there fast. Yeah.

It was hilarious. When you crossed the threshold, were you like, nope? Like, were you knew right away? Or did you think maybe if this place is cleaned up, it could be good. And then eventually you're like, no. In the moment, I was really trying to convince myself. Uh-huh. No, we could, we could scrape our mind and, like, forget everything.

And Rachel's like, I could never forget. I think it's because Rachel saw the scrawny grandma. She's like, I can never unsee the grandma. No, you're not going to be like, oh, that's just a nice reading room. No, it's not. It's where the grandma was hanging out. Yeah, that's, you just don't want to see people sleeping like that. You don't want to see people sleeping.

Napping is different than sleeping. If I see somebody napping on a couch, oh, they fell asleep. That's a little bit like, oh, sorry, sorry. But if I wake you up, no big, like. Undercovers. Yeah. In pajamas. Oh, it was, it was too bad.

All the other ones have been fine. You know, it's just an empty house. And you're like, most time we're not even dealing with the real estate. It's just like the homeowner. It's like, okay. I'm trying to get rid of this at some point. Yeah. Yeah, that's interesting.

And Isaac, you said is not living, he's living on his, like, with somebody else. He's not, he's not in your casino. Great setup. Yeah, he's going to live on his own. Or sorry, he's going to live with a pro pickleball player who lives pretty much right by downtown Gilbert, which is like a really cool popping area. The Mormons love it, you know, so that's where they're all at. Yeah.

Anyway, Isaac's got a very, very good setup. I tried to drive by it when we were there. just make sure it existed behind a gate. Very good. Good for Isaac. Very good. That'll be sweet. Yeah, that's, I understand the idea of, oh, we have to get this, we would like to get this rent out right when they move out.

Like, that makes sense. Yeah. You don't want it to be vacant for a month or whatever, but like also you got to know your tenants a little bit. You know. Yeah, like, do I title? Like, does Nancy know there's 11 people there? Were you solo? Nancy wasn't there?

No, Nancy. It was just the home owners? Being the current renter. Oh, she was the one saying, check out this room. Yeah, it was the woman who currently lives there showing me around her rented house. Not a good setup.

I might tell somebody, at least for their own sake, of like, hey, FYI, I might wait until they're cleaned out because we might have liked that house if it weren't for the experience we had seeing how dirty it was. Yeah. Because if they cleaned it up, it'll look fine. But like Rachel said, I'm not going to ever get past it.

Once you see horizontal grandma, yeah, it's a whole different house. 100% oh man that's wild uh something i thought you guys appreciate it wrote this down yesterday i met with nathan coley to talk about some stuff and he goes oh by the way first of all i'm in for session three yeah baby you go great you go second of all i could have been in for session one not because i'm a former getaway member but i'm proud to say i guess the password at the site no really we changed that like every year yeah he was like i was just trying to think of like yeah yeah inside jokes or i don't know. He goes, it was the first thing I tried.

Oh, okay. I was like, wow. You should have booked it then, dude. You deserved it. That's pretty cool. That's awesome. Good for him. Yeah. And he was on the site to see it. He was on the site. He was like, I was looking at session one rooms available and I just figured I guess I probably shouldn't. High class. High character. Yeah, he is. That's awesome. Yeah. Our password was Ortencia. Yeah. Which a lot of people would think that's spelled with an O at the beginning, but there's an H. Gotcha. Ortencia.

Yeah, Martensi is the best. Getaway is going to be so. It's going to be awesome. I can't wait. So fun. Yeah. Oh, dude, I have something. Off the podcast.

Okay. Fun. Oh, it's fun. Ben rector's coming to the getaway? Even Binner. Binner. Ben Simmons? Yep.

Ben Simmons reached out. Most to come. LSU, close. Yeah. Okay, fun. I'm excited for whatever that is. I want to make it a surprise. Okay.

is it a dog? That was a great text. I like that joke. So Jake texted us, hey, FYI, it's gonna be a little loud over here today.

Or no, he said, I got surprise. I got surprise. He didn't say loud. And I just said, is it a dog? Legally,

you have to tell us if it's a dog. I like the, I like the idea of like, legally you have to tell us, if blank. It is a good joke. Like, are you married,

timing? Legally you have to tell us. You wear in a wire? Yeah. Yeah. Legally, you have to tell us. Yeah.

I was excited for the idea of a dog. And I kind of liked it. I was like, hey, maybe, you know, if we get like a kind of nicer house, Phoenix has got a, every house is fenced in down there. Because they all have pools and stuff. And I was like, maybe we finally get a dog. And the internet is pretty, like, adamant. Like, yeah, you can have a dog in Phoenix, but it better be a little rat.

Basically, it just gets so hot in the summertime. Those are my words, not theirs. But like, like a type of dog we would want. A fun. A good one. A good one. No offense to the rat. But like an actual dog.

Yeah. One that should have been domesticated. What is Rod Swanson? He's like, any dog under 30 pounds is a cat and cats are pointless. Like a golden retriever. Yeah. Bernie's mountain dog, anything furry. It's like, yes, you can have it.

But in the summertime, you're going to need to make sure it goes on walks very early in the morning. You're going to need a cooling bed. You're going to need to shave them down quite a bit. What about a pool? They got a pool. If you got a pool. Watch out for their paws. Even walking them on sidewalks could be really painful.

It's like this seems like a lot. Okay. Really? It's hot in Kansas too. I think we got hot sidewalks. I don't know. They do fine. But then again, maybe the fur.

Yeah, they might be pretty insulated. And when I really think about it, it's like the way I grew up with dogs, I do want to let them rum free. I really, I'll see the light at the tunnel before I pick up crap at a bag. I really don't want to ever do that. Yeah. You guys never picked it up. I never have. Just let it compost.

Yeah. Every dog would, like, choose their own bathroom. I'd like to watch a documentary around that. How does a dog decide this is my toilet? Like an area of our yard. You know, we had two acres for them and they each had their own spots. Like, this is my toilet. And they were never the same?

It was never like, well, this one's already pretty good land. You know, somebody already tilled this for me. Oh, shoot, somebody already got this. Okay. Yeah, that's fun. All right, timing. Cozy Earth, quick. What does Cozy Earth stand for?

Could we rent one for 10 days? Dude. Yeah, I don't think, golf dog. That was, do you remember the first year, uh,

in Florida? somebody like the rental company came to our house the first day and was like basically like did this shakedown on us like hey people people are saying they're hurting a dog oh yeah bark around here you have a dog you have to tell us if you have a dog like we don't have a dog you have to tell us there's no dogs allowed it's hard to prove you don't have something i don't know what to tell you there's no dog dude you can look around you can smell me what do you need yeah i don't have a dog where's the dog We don't have a dog.

I forgot about that. Yeah, early on. It was like, dude, I'm worried about trying to park 18 cars in this parking, you know, driveway. We don't have a dog, I promise. Gosh, the getaway's got to be fond, dude. It's so fun. I want to go look right now at some of the people who've signed up just to get excited. Do we got A1 Blackjack is coming?

That guy? Yeah. That's the guy, yeah, he has like a big Instagram following. He's been following us forever. He comments occasionally. Yep. A1, Blackjack. A couple from...

That's so funny. I knew exactly what you're talking about. Yeah. What's his name? No idea. A1 Blackjack's coming. Thomas maybe, but I'm not sure. We got a couple from Ontario coming.

Oh, California. Yes, dude. Cool. All the way from Cali. Tails, California. Head, Canada. Ontario. Isn't that crazy, though?

Coming all the way across the board. They're going to have to get passports to come hang out with us. Yeah. A1 Blackjack. That's so funny. We think I ordered paddles yesterday. His name was Ash. the god

T-H-A yeah yeah that's normal A-1 Ash the gun this is fun though because

I don't recognize a lot of these names like all the recent ones yeah I know is Hannah Warner hitting a grand sand with us

yeah Triple Crown yeah wow yeah dude fun I think I predict that there will be

a few more too that's my guess come on yes is fun names that have not come and names that I don't recognize that are become, that's the fun thing, dude, is that they are going to become household names.

Yes. Right? Yes. Like last year, it's like, I don't know who, you know, whatever, like, Kara Simwale. I don't know if that's how you say your last name. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Lily. Lily.

Grady. Yeah, I met Lily once. Brady. Crap. What was that guy's name? Oh. Bracey. Bracey.

Yeah. I'll never forget him. Grady, dude. What was that guy? I mean, the first year, we didn't know anybody. It's like Gabriel Oliver, I don't know who this guy is. So many names are in all caps. Catherine Lowen!

That's the guy. I think that's the A1 Blackjack. Sometimes when people like have already had an account with Stripe or whatever and they sign up. Like Hannah Warner, I think, is her real, maybe she goes by her middle name or something because I feel like often we see her first name on there. This is fun. Jason Cowling? Who are you, dude? No one knows, dude.

Marion. Marion. Marriott? Marian. K-Z-I-D-O-R-A-K-K-Z-D-R-A. I actually have no idea what nationalities could be. Marion. Yeah.

M-A-R-I-A-N. Okay. Probably Miriam. Uh-huh. Yeah. Hang with me. K-E-D. K-E-D.

Z. Z. Ked-I-O-R-A. Ked-Z-Y-R-A. Ked-Y-R-A. I like it being a little bit more like a D-G, Kajora. Mm. Call me crazy.

Bosnian? Marion Kedrora. Marion Cajorah, Dustin Pichoria. Yeah. Another one, Dustin Teske. I have seen that name before, but never met him. Kelly Schrader, who are you? Dude, she's wacky, dude.

I don't even know you. She's zany up in here, dude. It's gonna be awesome. Daniel Miller. Yes. I think you came to Branson. Is that the Daniel? Oh, yeah.

From Florida. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I know you. I know names. It's going to be great. Just not brazy. It's going to be so fun. So if you're on the fence,

come. Alvaro's back. Gosh, it's so excited. I know, dude. Alvaro's the man. So, anyway, man. Just getting excited. I know. You guys got to come. And the dog's going to be fun. Can't wait for that dog. Or Tensia's going to love the dog.

Tensia's going to love the dog. We're going to give him all the bones. Got a nine-year-old in my house. What do you mean? Dog? I would. You have to tell me. Yep. Legally, you have to say it. You have to tell him. me. I don't know. It's just like when you, like, when you're trying to like potentially like

decide when to have kids, it's like you're never ready for a kid completely. Like you think you're ready and or no, you don't even think you're ready. Like I, I remember when we got pregnant with Hattie. It was like, okay, I guess we're going to become parents now. It was like, I feel that way with dogs too. Like it's like, I don't think I'll, I think eventually I'll know when it's time to get a dog. It's like, I don't think it's ever going to be right time to get a dog. We's got a good. Most life things are like that. It's like, there is no like sign from, you know, above, it drops down and it says, it's time to buy the home, you know, or anything.

Flip the house now. Got it. Okay, cool. Bet on yourself. Move to Phoenix. Oh, thanks. I was thinking about it. Now?

Okay. Got it. Time to get into a roof, Rach. Yeah. It's like, I think it's, I think we just got to force the dog. Force the issue of the dog. Force a dog through a square peg.

Yeah. The round dog through a square hole. Yeah. Yeah. I don't know, maybe it just, it just feels like every time I think about it's like, man, a dog would be fun someday. It's like, why I keep saying someday? Yeah, what do you need?

What dominoes do you need to fall? I wouldn't hate some disposable income. That wouldn't hurt. It would help a little bit. Feels like dog, like I want a dog gets big enough to have a budget for their dog food. Like I'm going to need a budget like $100 at least a month or whatever it. I don't know how much dog food costs, but it's not going to be cheap, right? I thought you were going to say, I want a big enough dog where he can trap and hunt his own food.

where I don't, it's not a cost for me. He's an outdoor dog. I don't even know if that's big enough. I think it's just a good enough dog. I want a big enough and smart enough dog where it can budget its own food. It knows how much you have to pay for it. It's going to work.

Yeah. It's, it's paying for and it's going and buying its own food. Or it just, it just, yeah, it earns. It's an influencer dog or something. Yeah. It walks up right. It uses AI. I don't know.

I don't want that. I don't want to, I don't want an upright dog. Take too far. that's weird so you're you're getting closer to getting one you think just in the last two minutes I am okay no I'm not I haven't not thought about it much at all besides right now but I just think to myself right now I just think oh what's the what's the definite like what's the oh now we're ready it's like I don't know yeah is it like we moved to a bigger house okay that might not happen for a while I don't know when that's gonna you know whatever so it's like just go yeah just run get that dog get that dog

Henry would ride on it. Yeah, the saddle budget. I think I want to start calling Henry. I don't know. I don't know if I can force this. But I want to, you know, obviously Henry's nickname is Hank, but no one really says that. Oh, I like that. But he's a big boy.

Hank the tank. And I think I might just start calling him Tank. Tanky, tanky, tanky, tanky tank's kind of cool. But I don't know if I can like just like force that. nickname. That one feels hard to force. Drop it in every now and then. Oh yeah. Tank. Tank. Say hi. Mon Tank. Let's go tank.

Because even if he like eventually is not a tank, it's kind of a fun name. He's just a scrawny little string bean. His tank. His thighs, dude, are just amazing. You see him and you're like, he's kind of big. And then you like change his diaper and you're like, oh my gosh. Yeah. Sounds like you're re-roofing the house. Walk around. Dome, boom, boom. So anyway, I don't, I don't, for whatever reason,

naturally I can't call him Hank, but I like the idea of like shortening Hank the tank to just tank. I don't know. I like that. I like any time of name, like it took a while to get there too. It's like Henry, Hank. Mr. Rajas. Hank the tank. Tank.

Yeah. Mr. Rogers. Roger. Yeah. You would get that if you watched The Office timing. You quit on us, huh? I'm sorry. I got to go back to Ohio, I guess.

Mm. Skibody Riz. Last night, we watched the. first episode of the sequel to jury duty. Oh, is any good? Yeah, I like it. Once again, it seems like they found just like the sweetest guy. Yeah. So, um, yeah, so first episode, I laughed out a couple times. It's like a corporate retreat. Yeah, company retreat. I saw advertisement for it. That's, that's the kind of, I told my dad, was like, have you watched jury duty? Like, I think you might kind of be entertained by this. He's like, no, we haven't

watched that. Tell you what we have been watching. No, it's extracted. I know. I know. I know. I'm trying to change the subject. we have been watching. Yeah. Have you heard of jury duty? Yes, I have. I've been recommended it to me. I have had it recommended me.

Yeah, it's an easy record. It's a great show. I got tired of it. Oh, really? But if you watch it until the end, it's like awesome at the end. So it's like, I think I got tired after three episodes. But I watched it all. Yeah.

But man, like the originality of that idea is amazing. And like, thinking through the idea of, of them improvving. Like it's a loose script. It's like, oh, we got to change this now. And the fact they don't break is what's amazing to me. Yeah, they are very good. It takes a lot of preparation to pull off somebody like that.

But there was a scene last night where the main character, the guy, one guy who's not in on it, he, like, can I talk to you about something? It's like, you could script all you want. But if the guy pulls you aside, you just have to like go with it. You start to be in character, but there's no more script. And it's just fun thinking about what they have to do to pull this off. I'm sure there's an episode somewhere, but I want to hear from the guy from Ronnie from season one. I want to hear how it's affected him now. What's his life like? And like,

does, is he friends with these people? Yeah, does he keep in touch with him? Because he, all of a sudden, he's going to realize that's not their real personality. They were acting. Yeah. But I'm kind of close to them because I spent a lot of time with them, but I don't really know them at all. And they all kind of deceive me. I don't know. But I got paid and I'm kind of a celebrity now. Did you get paid? Oh, surely. I would think. Yeah. I would feel bad if they didn't pay him. Yeah, you're right. surely but yeah i've only watched episode one company retreat but there's like definitely like a michael scott character that i really like and yeah it seems like it'll be good so we'll see

that's cool what's it is on some like random app just amazon prime i think okay i like the jury duty i watched it on voodoo or something you're right it was available it's like it's free v or something like that yeah i mean the props of them but i would not want to try and start my own streaming platform now. I feel that way about a lot of, yeah, a lot of technology things. Like, let's try to just up in the, you know, social media industry.

Let's just do another one. Yeah. Man, you got to really do well. That said, download our new Ghost Nerds app. Yeah, exactly. Oh, I know what I was going to ask you about. The main character in this, he's a temp. The only thing I know about Timps is Ryan Howard from the office.

Rachel and I were talking and realized we don't, like, what is it to, what is the intrigue to get hired as a temp? I got hired as a temp one time. Okay. What is it? Kind of. Tell me everything. I mean, basically, it's like, I think you get paid a decent amount of money,

and it's like a decently easy job to get. And this might not be right. The pay is good. But you knew that it was like, obviously temporary. Like, you knew it was like, you're not here forever, so you don't, if you don't do a great job, like, they're going to get rid of you or whatever. I don't know. It was like right after I,

right after I graduated college, when was that? Yeah, it was because I, I didn't get hired on at CERner until my like, until January. Okay. Like they,

they, they offer me a job at Cerner and then they're like, actually you can't start until January. And I'm like, well, what am I supposed to do? Okay. And so I found get a job.

Yeah. And it was, I was like a call center person doing like customer service, It's not like calling other people for. Were you based in India or did you do it stateside? I did it stateside right downtown Kansas City. And it was like for 529 accounts,

which is like children's savings, like college savings accounts. And people would have issues with their accounts or whatever they call me. I loved it. Yeah, I really enjoyed it. Really?

Because you never know. Because like it was, we were like a account center for all these different states in their 529 accounts. So sometimes and you're just sitting there with your headset on. and you never know, like, like, and you should get like a little buzz and it's like, Indiana, you know, 529 account.

And then it buzz or beeps again and it's like you're talking to somebody from Indiana. Just rapid fire. And then the next time, yeah, and sometimes it's like you hang up with that person and boom right away. New Jersey. Another time it's like you got plenty of time in between and every once in while they're mad and you just get to like try to escalate stuff. Sometimes you try to escalate it. Sometimes it's like, oh, yeah. Oh, snap.

They got more mad. So anyway, I enjoyed it. They offered me to work there full time after a while. You crushed it. No, thank you. Yeah. That makes sense. Yeah, if you've got a start date that's down the road for a job.

Yeah. I don't know. I don't know if that's exactly why people do it or what the point is. But I think it's like, hey, maybe we're looking for seasonal help right now, but we're not necessarily ready to commit to having somebody full time. I don't know if I had benefits. I might not have had any of that kind of stuff. I can't remember.

I didn't care at the time. Just making money. just raking it in. That was the first time I got paid for overtime, which was exciting. Yeah, I'll do overtime. Yeah, I'll work harder. Yeah.

Who doesn't live overtime? It's the best part. That's right. I love basketball. K.U. should have gone to overtime. No, Marco Jackson. All right. Let's talk about Good Ranchers real quick.

Good Rangers has this a little packet of questions. All good. I love this quote from Ronald Reagan. All great change in America begins at the dinner table. and these are just good conversation questions. So we're going to do one of these good conversation questions, and then we're going to talk about good ranchers.

What would you do if the power went out for a whole week, Simon? I would, I'd be like, ah, I can't really be productive editing. I'll take this opportunity to, I was going to say, like, finally like film a short film or something like that, but I guess I need batteries for my... Well, you got some battery, he's got to be efficient with it. It's true. Do it quick.

To do a 24-hour short film challenge while my batteries last, and then I can't edit it. Well, you got a computer that has some battery. Some. I can edit it really fast. You got to edit for six hours. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That'd be a good challenge.

That's what I'd do. And then what? The remaining six days. The timing without power would just try to use power as much as easy. Yeah, I would just really miss the power. And the remaining six days, I would sleep, I think. Okay, very good. My grandma got me and Rachel a, like, old-fashioned butter churner.

Okay. I think I'd like to put that to use. I go full homestead. Yes. I would try to get rid of the vaccine. that are already in my body. Okay. I would churn my own butter.

Okay. I guess those two things mainly. I mean, you'll be pretty busy with that. In between? Taking turns between the two. Oh, I'd stop wearing sunglasses. Do you see that Facebook post? Yep.

Very interesting. Yeah, it is interesting. Very interesting. Yeah. People care about their health on our Facebook group. That's what we're trying to say. And what we're trying to say is if you care about your health,

you should care about what you're eating. Yep. And if you care about what you're eating, you should be eating good ranchers, because it is the best meat that you can buy for your health, for your family, just the best. And it tastes the best, too. Yeah, I, uh, you talked last time. Oh, you talked about how you're doing Playola, uh, Good Ranchers.

Uh, I always love pizza night. Catherine's starting to just dominate homemade pizza crust or pizza dough, whatever. And we do, use the pizza oven. She made one dude that was, uh, barbecue chicken pizza with Good Ranchers chicken. Oh, that sounds great. Unbelievable. dude. It was like there's a little bit of leftovers. I'm going home and eating every single piece right now. Howning. I cannot wait. So, um, and yeah, of course it would have been good with the barbecue

sauce and cilantro and the onions and the cheese. But the thing that took it over the top was the good ranchers chicken thighs on there. So, uh, my gosh. Just shout out to good ranchers for just being the best in everything they do and everything they make. Haddy, her, uh, request for her birthday was to have, We call it Viking chicken, which is just, you know, chicken that you, like basically like little lollipop drumstick chickens that you eat with your hands like Vikings did. Yeah, that's what we call it. That's kind of fun. And like, that's what she wanted.

So, like, she could have chosen anything she wanted in the world. She chose Good Rancher's chicken. So she knows what's good for her. Yes. So if you go to their website, Good Rancher.com, use our promo code GRKC. You're going to get, you know, a discount on your subscription. You're going to get a free protein added on. Yep.

And, yeah, you're just going to get happy. This once a month. You're going to get happy. You're going to have a fun little box dropped off your door. Yeah. Frozen, frozen meat. Put in the freezer. Put in the refrigerator if you're ready to thaw it and eat it right away.

Please, by all means. Be my guest. So best chicken, best beef, best everything. And it's supporting American farmers. If you guys buy from Good Ranchers, you legally have to tell us. Yes. Okay. Did you buy from, are you eating that from Good Ranchers?

Is that meat right there that you're eating supporting American farmers? If you're not legally, you have to tell us. Thank you. Thank you. Let us know. Time on what's on your heart. I am doing. improv. You are? Yeah. Just like the, I couldn't remember if I talked about this, but I guess I hadn't.

Huh? No. It's just the MNU improv happens to like practice right after choir. I'm like, oh, stick around. What does I mean you stand for? Mid-American Nazarene University. What else does M&U stand for? Improv. Mine not yours. What else does MNU stand for? No, you, that works. Yours. My nickel's ugly. Yep, one more. Maine. Ooh. The N scares me. You can't say my this time for M.

So yeah, Maine. Main North, Uptown. That wasn't even good, though, because it didn't make any sense. No, it's directions. Main Street, take it north to Uptown. Yeah, those directions. So have you gone to a class yet?

Yeah, I mean, it's just like very, I don't know how Maine, Zach keep sneaking our way into things that we're not paying for at all. You're not paying for this? We just like. And is everyone else? I mean everyone else is a student at M&U. Okay.

But it's just like we kind of know these people and they're like to come watch improv. Then eventually come play some games. And now it's like I think Zach's going to do the next show. But I can't because I have a conflict. But like kind of an improv. I guess I'm an improv. What if this is all a long con for you to go to Zach's improv show and it's actually him opening up for Tray Kennedy? Yeah.

Maybe he's getting you. He's fooling you. Yeah. That's probably what's happened. So how many times have you done it? I think three. Yeah. Three Monday nights in a row.

It's fun. It's really challenging and scary, but really fun. And like, I think I'm okay at it. What have you learned? I think just you have to, I mean, this is, yeah, this is what improv is like, you have to say something. So it's like, there are just certain times where just whatever you, that you happen to pop in your mind, you have to say it, and then you have to go off of that. It's like...

Like, commit to something. But I haven't played that many games. I haven't, like, done a whole lot, but... Give us an example of one of the games. You started singing yet? No? I think there's, like, there's definitely some improv games that are, like, improvised musical type things.

I... Like, last... On Monday night, we played a game. It was, like, panel of... Advice panel or something like that, which is, like, I think, a pretty popular one where it's, like, the audience, which is just the rest of the students, like, says random words

and then the person who's hosting the game takes one of those words goes down the line to the four people playing and is like this word

like basically people in the line are doing like word association where it's like okay what did that word make you think of like oh Lego was the audience word

okay plastic playtime whatever it or then it's like quick form of character based on that and then we'll ask you like interview advice questions

basically oh interesting um so yeah, it was like you have a few seconds before you're going to get asked a question. It's like, okay, I said plastic for Lego. I guess I'm an actor who has a lot of plastic surgery and that's kind of

part of my, I don't know. It was fun. It's just like a rush when it's like, yeah, people are laughing at this. Yeah. Yeah. It is a rush. Yeah, it's fun. I remember by Freshford Year of College, I made a whole lecture hall laugh

during a presentation where I impersonated like our professional. who was like a pretty like yeah just eccentric guy and I remember walking back to my door and being like I'm gonna chase that feeling that was pretty fun more of that yeah yeah that was good yeah I tell you what like will make it makes me feel like less good at it because Zach is truly so good at improv really he's so funny he's just like he's willing to yeah he'll just be as crazy as he needs to be and just like it's so funny he like I can't remember remember, and it wasn't even like, you know, I'm up there like, okay, plastic. My thing has to like directly have to do with plastic or whatever. It's like, Zach will just be like, okay, this kind of loosely. I'll just be this goofy guy. Like I'll be. There's less of a like, my name is Mr. Perfect and I have a French accent for some reason. And it's just like, yeah. That's something I, I've talked about this before, but like just that's something I learned at Cana Cuck is like I often like you're saying like yeah, I had a hard time getting past like it has to be really close or it has to be. Yes.

somewhat realistic of an idea. And like, Kana Kuk did such a good job of like, at least the people around me of like, how do we just make this some like crazy idea and figure out how to make that work rather than like, I know exactly how we could do this idea. So let's do this. Like, no, what if we did this insane thing or like had this crazy character and like, you know, you had to have a crazy elaborate costume or whatever. Like, let's figure out how to do that rather than, you know, I don't know, we could just be

Superman because we have the Superman thing in the closet. Yeah. So. Yeah. That's cool. But I'm having a great time. I'm having a great time. It was good.

Yeah. That is fun. Yeah. I mean next a grande boo type event, you know. Yeah. Do some improv stuff. That'd be fun. Yeah.

I think there's some improv games that are like really fun and not that hard. Like you can pull it off. Yeah. Where you're currently at. Yeah. Which we've done some over the years before, I think. What's the classic one? I mean, there's different ways of doing it.

But like, you could do a press conference or you can do interrogation where it's like the audience and the two people interrogating you were all in on something and you as the guy sitting there trying to figure out what you did where you did it and who you did it with and they're giving you clues. We played that on Monday. Like something similar. It's like that's all right. It was tough. It was tough. This was like one of the students made up this version of it and it was kind of in its testing phase. It wasn't great. It was like basically three people were being interrogated but they already knew their alibi. A person kind of the person guessing had to make it. I don't know. It was interesting, but it was like, it's fun. It's fun because

you don't know, you don't know how far along your, like I was one of the people that was. Are they weed eating? Are they doing yard work? It does sound like. They're blowing something. That's the shrap. It's so loud. But it's fun because you don't know how far along your other two people have like gotten in their alibi. It's like you don't know how vague to be. It's fun. Oh, I see. Like you do them all separately where you didn't hear the other alibis. You're like you're, you're, you have 30 seconds and then you're like the host else time and you run out of the room all that person runs in that's kind of the best part of it is just like yeah everyone's running around it's great huh yeah i would like to do that in all the spare time i have any guys are aged at the minu improv class oh yeah yeah yeah

sweet you guys are using facebook there yeah there's a pretty funny people in there yeah yeah i'd say it's yeah nazarians are known for their humor they're yeah it's their big thing yeah NASTRAK. They don't dance, they don't dance, but they laugh. Definitely a few guys that are just like,

yeah, really funny. That's cool. Yeah. I'll just come watch then. How, this is once a week. Yeah,

Monday nights is like practice, I guess, improv rehearsal. I think I'm going to be the janitor in there some night. I guess I can do it. You want me to try?

Oh, you want me? I'm like mopping some carpet. I guess that's what they do on, that's what Andy does in the office. Remember that? I'm like, yeah, I'm like, that's kind of a funny idea.

Nope, and he did already. Have you guys ever seen Middle Ditch and Schwartz on Netflix? I watched all three of the ones that exist. Oh, is that John Ralfo? Yeah, he is so good. Yeah, it was so funny. The first one was the best in my opinion. Like, there's three on Netflix,

and one of the guys was inappropriate or something like that, and it's canceled now, so show got canceled. That'll happen. Yeah. Yeah. But it's still on there. Yeah, it's still up. Yeah, the first one about like the wedding

is so funny. It's incredible. I don't know how. Should go watch it again. The main impressive thing to me is how they, as they're acting out this scene, they are like they know, they still remember exactly what everything they talked to the person about at the beginning and they know there's things they took to bring in.

Like I would, I would forget so much of the beginning conversation. It's like the inspiration. But it's like, good memory. They'll remember things and it's like, oh yeah, that, of course this person is now involved because they talked about at the beginning. Yeah, it's really funny. to watch it. You should. That's sweet. We should put that on the Ghostrunners app. You guys can

just watch it there. Great. Yeah, just like, I'll start like steel. Yeah, pirate, pirate abundance. It just becomes a piracy app. Yeah, just like, whatever. We're really into, uh, Extracted in Jury duty season two. You can watch that right now. Yeah, check it out on our pirate, uh, tab on the app for free. That'd be awesome. You got anything else, Jake? Oh, I was just going to try to find a, my comment of the week. And what do you know, Madison McCalla is talking about Tyman's improv skills. A moment for Timon's improved improv skills, horse-smelling Tyman could have never gotten to I'm a beweaver that quick.

That's good. That's funny. I think my comment was also from Madison McCall, but I'm trying to find it. Crushing it. Oh, man. A lot of love for you. Timon really knows what's up when it comes at RRBs. Yeah, thanks, guys.

I know. I know. I can't remember. I can't find the comment, but I think she just said that she liked the turn your radio on him thing. That was fun. I don't know why that was in my head,

but that was fun. Yeah, that was a good hymn. Oh, man, I'm just, I want to read somebody that defends me on something. That's all I want.

Oh, here's some, so just been a, just went to a water burger for lunch in KC two Saturdays ago. Amazing burger. Huge pop. Really good fries. Also,

once I realized, their prices were for the combo price, it's actually worth it. All right. Consider yourself defended. I feel like that's a little bit. Someone commented, they're like, wow, Jake just couldn't let time and have his moment, L.O.L. I was like, what is that?

What is that about? You do three hours a week. Totally. But I bet it, sorry about that. What would that be? I couldn't remember. Yeah, I couldn't think either. Like all we did that episode was talking accents and doing March Madden's bracket.

Clearly, I've moved past it. Yeah, thank you for getting it for giving. Yeah, I forgive you. Sam Wheeler, literally everyone knew it was going to be Chick-fil-A-V-a-V-Chipol. Didn't need a bracket. Listen, we gave the people, we tried for all the other ones. Yeah, we tried to call people. We tried to get other input.

How long would that podcast be, huh? Let me read you guys what Scott said. Yeah. Let's see, Scotty boy. Because we tried to call him about in and out versus, Scott and I've been texting about KU a lot. A lot. Well, okay. A lot.

Yeah. Okay. He said, sorry, just seeing this, y'all still recording. We are not. And I said, in and out or culverse? He responds, are you kidding? I said, no. In and out, and it's not close.

Scott does love asking rhetorical questions via text. Are you kidding? And I don't know if I'm supposed to respond to them or not. We should start. You'll say, like, stop. Oh, Carbon just released a gin three paddle. Are you serious? he likes saying that in person too.

Yeah. Yes. Are you serious? Don't respond. Let's just like leave them on red. I always affirm what I just said. Yes, I am. I said, I think Culver's great.

He said, yeah, it's fine, but we're talking about a burger legend. TVH. I said, I think it's just fine. It's not where we live. So we like it more because of that. He said, sure, but no one seeks out of Colvers when they're in a town that has one. I seek out in and out when I'm out west. If you go by the Sikh factor,

which is not a religious thing. S-E-E-E-K, then in and out definitely wins. That's a good point. I said every time I go to in-and-out, I have high expectations and leave a little unimpressed. I think it's overrated. Not bad, just not amazing. And that's when he said, that's wild, T-B-H.

That's wild. And I said, T-B-H, you're so cool. That's wild, to be honest. That's wild, T-B-H. Are you kidding? Seriously? Those are my comments of the week. I suppose.

We just got an email. Video cannot be monetized and is blocked in some territories. It's the Ghostrunners podcast episode 240. The biggest event we've ever done. Dude, I bet that's the jock jams at the beginning of announcing Grande boo. Oh, it's got to be. Potentially. 200 seems like a while ago.

That could have been our first Ghostrunners Getaway. I don't know. Either way, it's now demonetized. So everyone who goes and listens to episode 240, great. You're not giving us a. Yeah, that goes all to YouTube now. Yeah, I don't ever look at our stats on anything, but how much money are we making on old episodes?

$5 a month? Yeah, I don't know. I mean, even just for an entire month of our entire catalog on YouTube might be like $600. Yeah. That's what I'm saying. Yeah, some people would love to get that. Not bad.

My, yeah, that was, let's see, other comments that were good. This is good, pretty good. Is it Javan Plattner? Is that how we were saying this time? I believe so. Jesse's brother. He's been doing a great job commenting recently. He said, the further, the further Colonel Sanders, that's tough to say.

The further Colonel Sanders journeyed. Oh, wow. Go ahead, guys. Further Colonel journeyed from, the further Colonel Sanders journeyed from Kentucky. The more popular he got, KFC is the pinnacle of American food in Asia. it's pretty interesting. It's kind of true, though. Like, no one really respects KFC around here,

but people really like it. They do. Abroad. They do. We're in the process of booking flights, booking hotels for Asia, so I'll make sure we're near a KFC. Walking distance, please. That does sound good there.

You know, like, I would never eat it here. Oh, that sounds good there. But it's at least a little familiar there. KFC sounds so good in Asia. Did you have a comment, timing. Madison McCullough. It was the one I couldn't find Madison McCullough. A win in the week?

Yeah. You got one? I got a nine-year-old daughter. That's fun. Yeah. That's a win. She's awesome. Also, oh, I've been mean to shout this girl artist out for a while. Somebody commented this and recommended this to me. It was a ghosty.

I don't know who it was. I'm sorry, but I've been listening to these piano instrumental hymns a lot from this artist called Kendra Logozar, L-O-G-O-Z-A-R. Check her out, Spotify. She's got some great...

I just been listening in the morning, and it's a great way to start your day. Shout out. That's good. H-T. Win of the week. H-T, Kendra Logo-Zar. Log-Zar.

Logger. My one of the week is I just got a notification 30 minutes ago that seems pretty meaningless. It doesn't seem like a, you know, probably a pretty routine thing. But it said your prescription is ready for you

at CBS Pharmacy. Yo. That has been an issue all week. I want to get into it because it's not like probably entertaining podcasting. But I've been out of my live laugh level. I've been out of that since Saturday and can't get it. Like I've got new insurance now. They won't respond.

At first I was like frustrated like customer service like please help me fix this. And then I like got mad. I was like, hey, I need Medicaid. Like please. And then now I just got snarky. Hey, good morning everyone. day four of not having my pills. Hope you guys have a great day.

Good morning, everyone. It's day five. How are you celebrating this Wednesday? I am by not having my pills. And they just don't respond to me. And I try calling King and Hold on. Whatever, it's been an issue. But I think it's at CBS.

All right. Luckily, though, it hasn't been that big of a deal because Rachel is on the same medication. So I've just been cutting her pill on half. I just take half of it. I'm like, I think that's fun. Okay. Yeah.

So is that next time you should just order it sooner? Maybe it's just going to take long to I think it's because this was the first time getting a refill on this new insurance. So now I think we're good. Like you're, you got it in the system now. You're good. Yeah, now we should be fine. And then once it's down, then I'll move and then it was go through this whole thing again. Also, my doctor is moving too. So it's perfect. The doctor is? Yeah. A lot of things moving right now. He's a roofer. He's on the, he's on the house right now. He's a mover. He's a mover and a shaker. Shaker style. Shaker roof. That's funny. I don't quite get it. I think. I think.

there's something with like roof shake. Like moving a shaker. Just no. It's a pun. That we're back to the Culver's conversation. Maybe I got it now. What was I going to say? Yes and.

What was I going to say about that? My doctor's moving. Doctor. Oh, I just, most of the time when I run out of medicine, I just don't ever refill. Like, I'm like, I think I can. I don't think it's that hard. Ah. Kind of ran out.

I don't have a prescription that you have. Well, but I don't have one that I've had to like, use, like I've had some there like, you get prescribed for three months and after one month, they usually run out, but it's not like, hey, use this for the rest of your life kind of thing. Gotcha. So I'm just like, so you think, uh, you know. I think I'm pretty

healed. I think I'm pretty healed. Yeah. I think the Lord's got it from here. Yeah. Just be good. So, so I'm not very familiar with the refill process. We got to figure it out now. Good. Boys are jamming. Can you hear that?

Dude, it's wild. It's wild. Like, how they love that music. It just sounds so, it sounds so like something that 50 year olds would like. And they love it. All of them love it. I'm like, why wouldn't you listen?

Daddy Yankee exists. Listen to that. Like, I like Hispanic music. Just not, that stuff doesn't get me going. How would you describe this? Like lots of brass. Like,

Bapapapam, Bumpa, bum, ma. Don't mean a d'i. That's great. you know, bubba di na na na. Oh, manna da dae.

You're saying, let's get a little bad bunny, a little bad Yankee in here. Yeah, for how popular those guys are, it seems like that's always the music that they like to listen to. Desposito,

anyone? Desposito. Despotcito? Hey, boy! Anyway. But I think I could be wrong. People that know more than me,

tell me if I'm wrong about it. I think a lot of times that that is, kind of equivalent to what I would probably consider country music in America, where it's like that has more like a story behind the words. I see. Whereas I think despisito is just like, let's dance kind of thing. Let's dance. Let's get after it. Kind of thing. So, what does Despacito mean again? Slowly? That's right. Yeah. My win. Last week, it was like spring break for a lot of my friends. I was like, I'll say yes to more hangouts. I don't know. I

didn't get as much, not a financial win. I didn't say like work as much, but like, it was just fun time. It felt like, it was kind of like the second half, I think of last week, super nice weather. Kind of felt like summer. It's just like pickleball. Yeah. Go see a movie. Yeah, I have stubs.

Sure. I'll see, I'll see whatever movie. Have you gone? I've seen the new Ryan Gosling movie where he's the Project Hill Mary. I've seen it three times because I've stubbs. Is it that good though? Uh, no. People are acting like it's awesome.

I mean, I don't want to. Have you seen it yet? No. I want you to go see it and then like it as much as you want to like it. Letterbox? 7 out of 10, 3.5. For me.

Which is, its average is 4.4, which is insanely high for letterbox. It's getting really good reviews. Yeah. I don't know. I don't know. I'm curious.

People comment below what you guys thought about it. I thought it was like impossible for me to not compare it to Interstellar and just not nearly as good as interstellar, in my opinion. That's on like your Mount Rushmore, though. Not necessarily. Okay. But like, okay. Letterbox, what is it?

Four and a half out of five. So, yeah, it's up. It's big up there. I don't know why I remember that. But no, yeah, I was like, I enjoy it. I enjoy it just fine. And I'm like, I can see it for free.

I just like introduced, like, taking more friends to it basically. Crazy you see it three times. And you're like, this movie's fine. Three times in eight days, I think. And it's a two hour and 40 minute movie. It's so long.

Wow. Are you locked in the whole time at this point? Yeah. I'm not a, I like, I'm a big fan of movie theater etiquette. I don't like scrolling on my phone during the movie. I agree. Yeah. I don't like talking.

My friend sometimes whispering, I'm like, stop. Yeah. Have some respect. Yeah. Because everyone else is trying to watch it and you might distract them. Exactly. I highly recommend the movie though. Like, great experience.

I don't know. It's just like since I love Interstellar so much and like that movie like makes me cry. It's like really powerful like whatever. It's just like, oh, okay. I don't know. I think if that's the, like, thing you have to say, though, like, it means it's a pretty good movie.

It's like, listen, it's not as good as interstellar. The fact that it can be compared, feels like, yeah. Anything else out now worth to see them? Uh, I haven't really seen much else. Do you see the Timitia Chalmey movie? People like that. Marty Supreme.

I didn't. I didn't. I have Vid Angel and I think. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. But spring break. Spring break.

Celebrate. Big win. That's great. Love it. Yeah. All good. I'm out. Place your bets.

No more bets. Hey, I'm Deacon now. Hey, hey, come on. All right. Well, this is been an episode. Go Chiefs. We'll see you guys on the app. Just kidding.

Facebook group for now. We'll figure it out. Who we're rooting for in the tournament? I know this is like... Women's or men's? Men's. Women's is a lock by this point. South Carolina.

Oh, this is funny. You'll actually appreciate this because you have connection to this girl. Because that was a women's basketball player myself. Because didn't you practice with them? All four years, baby. Yeah. Big time.

So my mother-in-law, you guys are going to love this. Honey. Yeah, honey. Honey went to Baylor with Susan Wardess. Okay. Her name is Susan Higgins. She is the mom of Sally Higgins. Yes.

And so my father-in-law yesterday was like, yeah, we watched, we even watched some of the women's basketball tournament. We watched the, 16 seed play-in game between Samford and somebody else because Susan's best friend's daughter is one of the coaches on Sanford. And so I think they won and then they went and played South Carolina

or something. It got spake. The 16-seed play-in game. Yeah, imagine how good that was. Just high-quality basketball probably. I bet there was a barn burner. Just for the privilege of going to play the one seat and getting absolutely smoked. That's fun. Sally Higgins. Yeah.

Shut up. Did she work with you? That's a tip. No, she was K2. Okay. College basketball player. Yeah, must be nice. We ran around together.

Yeah, we were in the same circles. Oh, yeah. So, anyway, shout out with Sally. Shout out Sally. But I guess I'm in for Iowa State. Okay. When Westcham first took flight in 1996, the vibes were a bit different.

People thought denim on denim was peak fashion. Inline skates were everywhere, and two out of three women rocked, the Rachel. While those things stayed in the 90s, one thing that hasn't is that fuzzy feeling you get when WestJet welcomes you on board. Here's to Westjetting since 96. Travel back in time with us

and actually travel with us at westjet.com slash 30 years. I am rooting for, yes, I would agree. I think we want to keep it in the heartland. Keep it in the heartland. Anywhere that has wheat and cows. Yeah.

A little bit of corn. This is why I think Oklahoma City will pull through. I think we'll be fine. One of Rachel's favorite things, and I really love it too, is texting her, the men and her family about sports, knowing that they're watching and knowing they care so much and trying to like,

I guess she plays the role of like almost, she says like JV basketball coach type things to them. Like she'll text Tim and her dad at halftime the Iowa State game. And she'll text them like, what's going on, guys? Let's get back to Cyclone basketball. Oh, good. Just get really cheesy.

Yeah, yeah. Who's it going to be? Yeah, who's it. Let's, let's, hashtag never satisfied. Let's remember what got us here, guys. and I think Tim it just takes a bag like, you are so dumb. Stop.

And her dad's too nice. Like, I don't know. I think she's got a point. I think she's watching the same thing we're watching. I hope the coach is saying the same thing. Yeah, we got to lock in. Yeah. Come on, guys.

Buckle down. Focus. Yeah. What else? Just come on. Hey, let's get back to the fundamentals here. Quit showboating. If they're not going to hustle, they shouldn't be out there.

like I'll put somebody in there that wants to be there. That was always a great threat. Let's play for the name on the front of our jersey, not the name on the back of the jersey. Yeah. Always. I was talking to a kid at our church who's high school basketball player this Sunday

and was asking him how a season went and all this stuff. He's like, we were pretty good until the guy that scored an average 26 points a game like broke his leg. And we got worse. He's like he broke it during the game. And the coach at half, he's like at halftime. was like a funeral.

Like this, like, and the coach at halftime was like, hey, we don't know. Maybe he'll come back next game. And they're like, he got carried out on a stretcher. Like, Jordan will be back soon. Okay. Let's close out this game the way only the Indians know how. So that was pretty funny. Stratford Indians won state basketball.

Seriously? 20 points. Wow. Yeah, I guess they're good. First time ever? No, they went a lot now. They won like four years straight. I think they won last year two or something.

I don't know. Really? Yeah, they've had like two different. they have this system now where they bring in a coach who has really athletic daughters, and then they just win state for four straight years. So this is their second time doing that. Yeah, women's. Oh, you got to clarify that.

Trevor, Lady Indians. You got to say the Lady Indians. Lady Indians. Yeah, different headdress. Yeah. That's awesome. Anyway. Dominant.

Let's go back to Indian basketball. We got a girl. Let's just talk high school girls basketball real quick. Please. We got a girl in my alma materially at the South who is on the Olympic team, like, junior Olympic team for, like, she's just like the number two girl in the country. Wow. She's amazing.

That's right here. Yeah. In the homeland. Yeah. She's going to go play somewhere cool, South Carolina probably or something. Wow. Yeah.

Hat tip. Just say, she's from Aletha. Just saying for champions of bread. That's right. You hear about that guy in O'Latha at the park? No. You guys hear about it? I heard.

We don't have to talk about it. Just O'Atha's getting into some bad news. This guy, this guy came up and just like tried to murder this woman in cold blood in the park. Oh, really? Are they? Yeah. Luckily.

Premeditated or just like you? No, that, well, it seems like there's more coming out in the story now that this woman, this guy was trying to kid at the park and this woman stopped him. Oh, so he's like, no one's getting in my way. Yeah. And I think, could be wrong, but I think the woman, her last name is the same, her last name is Trump with two peas. But then there were some kids at my school growing up, Trump, older than me.

Two peas. Yeah. Huh. So we go way back. She's a fighter. Yeah, she's good. I think. It's crazy, though.

Yeah, it's like, okay, that's what Olathe does get in the news about. Dang it. Talk about the basketball player. Come on, basketball. Garmin, Garmin headquarters. Garmin's cool, right? That's pretty sweet. The Cowboy boot is Lake of Kansas.

Yeah. Chief's new training facility's probably going to be down there. Probably unofficially. Let's talk about it. Anyway, crazy. So, hide your kids. Hide your wife. All right.

Scott just sent me a picture of him, taking a picture of his laptop screen and said, Jake's stand-up routine catching strays. I don't think I'm going to click on that photo. He doesn't deserve it. I don't want to see someone saying something bad about me. A picture of a laptop screen? Yeah, that's what I was talking about.

He doesn't deserve you to look at that picture if it's of his laptop. That gets me more mad than about just, oh. I don't know. It's fine. A laptop screen picture. He's got a think pad, so it's kind of his only option. Nope, it's not. You could cut that thing, send it via email, copy paste from the screen.

there. You think he's going to do that? No. You are right. He could. Not worth it. Anyway. All right. Hey, we love you guys. Thank you for listening, as always. Come to the ghosty getaway. Come to the ghost to get away. Come to Phoenix. Come to, come to Kansas City. Come to Kansas. And stay in the Airbnb. Yeah. Soon enough. I'll be here. We're calling the Airbnb the playhouse. Daddy's playhouse. Kids welcome. Yeah. Love you, guys. See you later.
