Dude, I'm actually glad that that didn't work because for some reason that reminded me in my dream last night.
You should still start with your thing.
No, no.
For whatever reason, I was thinking about our equipment and our roadcaster and like, oh, yeah, we need to figure out who takes what.
And I was like, oh, yeah, in my dream last night, I don't remember anything else.
But I remember, honest to God, I remember you saying, you take the dunk tank.
Listen.
I promise that was my dream that I just remembered.
We're brothers and, and, and, this is a time for,
things would potentially get messy, but I don't want it to get messy.
I don't, we've always said, like, if worse comes to worse, like, we're not going to argue
about this.
I'll come visit the dunk tank.
It's warmer in Arizona.
You'll use it more.
You'll have more opportunities.
The dunk tank would want to be with you.
Brad, you have four kids.
I asked the dunk.
No, I asked the dunk tank.
I said, listen, we've had good times, but you like, you like your other co-host better
than me, don't you?
Yeah.
You like Southside.
Yeah.
And they said, yeah.
We do. And you know what? As much as I know that I could give that dunk tank a good life here,
I'm committed to what it knows what it wants. Giving it the best life. So yes, tank the dunk tank,
but I get the balls. You got to provide your own balls to the duct tank.
Y'all like it is the tank. I don't have the mechanism. I don't have the lever. I don't have the fence
behind it. Yeah, good luck finding water down there, but the drought all year long.
Yeah, I don't remember what like preceded that. But I remember you saying,
it just makes sense, like, you take the dunk tank and me being like, yeah, yeah, that does make
sense.
Sure, yeah.
And then feeling like, okay, I probably need to give you a little extra podcast equipment then.
So I didn't know I was getting the dunk tank.
So why don't you take most of this?
Okay.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Thank you.
I appreciate that.
That's great.
And that's truly all I remember.
But it was like a serious conversation in the, in the garage.
The dunk take was in the garage and you were looking at it.
You know, it's like, I guess this is goodbye.
Yeah.
Hey, one more thing.
Hey, can I, uh, yeah.
Dang!
One more.
And timing falls in.
Take the dug take.
Uh, uh, oh, oh, I think this tight beat means that it's going down with some random thoughts in white meat too.
Then West best friends eating fast food on repeat.
So come along.
Let's have some fun and go ahead.
Get on your feet because it's a ghostrumbs podcast.
You got a little sickness?
Something?
Yeah.
It's, uh, I, I, on Monday, I went down to the late at the house and got up with, or met up with
Nathan Coley and did like a voice, like a solo voiceover for a YouTube video of like our
longest video ever. And I think I just, I get a little too, you know, if you think of a guy
who talks for a living, would figure it out. But I think I'm just like, this week on Friday.
And I talked like that for three hours, you know?
It takes it out of you. Matt, my throat's been killing me. But it feels better today. I just sound worse
today.
Okay, but you don't think it's sick?
You think it's more just throat issues?
Yeah, just overuse.
Yeah, maybe we'll just do like 30 minute episodes
because I also, my throat's also bothered me.
I don't think I'm like sick, sick.
But then again, I'm about to list my symptoms
and people are going to say, well, that's sick.
Like, my throat's bothering me, my nose is a little stopped up.
Huh.
I'm in the exact same boat.
Really?
But not sick, though.
Maybe it's just, maybe it's just,
maybe it's just allergies.
We all have allergies.
I think this is my second year of my life getting allergies.
I was immune in all my childhood
and now it's like, oh, this is why people
hated it. Yeah.
It's because you're not, you don't have the allergy vaccine.
Right. Yeah. Or maybe you do, and that's why.
What side are you on on that? But,
no.
Dude, I think your dad was in my dream two time.
And now it's going to feel like I've got to just saying that.
I don't, I don't remember anything else now.
How did that, just the classic dream crossover
of Brad and my dad?
Let's just say, anytime we don't know
else to say, be like, and by the way, uh, that was in my dream. You were, you were, you were,
you were mowing a lawn in my dream. Let's talk about that. I got nothing. I can't even remember
anything else about it, but I remember just like, Brandon was in, Brandon was there. We were
chatting about something. I like that. So I'm about the vaccine. Like, he wouldn't let,
yeah, I would get the vaccine. Yeah. Triggered it. Oh my gosh. So yeah, we're all kind of sick,
but none of us are sick. I, well, I wonder, so for mine, look this up for me, time.
Look up, look up. How much black mold do you have to,
ingest before you feel sick. Because I went over to this house. So there's a, there's a guy at our church,
an old man who was a single guy that died and like gave his house to the church. Wow. And the church is
like trying to sell it to somebody. And so I was like, I'll take a look at this thing. And my gosh,
it, it was like scared. This is why he died. Me? Honestly, dude. I don't know. I mean,
the house itself was in rough, rough shape. I was in there for maybe 15 minutes. But like, every
time I, every time I, like, took up, like, I was looking at some walls. I was like,
maybe there's some foundationist. Just, like, ripped off a little piece of this wall.
And there was a massive crack. But every time I rip off a piece, it was like,
mold in the face. I mean, it was like visible black mold on these walls. Like,
because I know that mold is never good. But like, black mold is like, what can and will kill you,
basically. And so he gave it to the church because he wouldn't be able to sell it.
I mean, yeah, I don't know. It's crazy. Like, and so, yeah, I did say like, I mean, I'll, I'll,
buy this house for a very cheap amount.
I got a remediation guy all of a sudden.
Yeah, honestly. Yeah. But I'm like, I,
anyway. So, but like, ever since, that was Tuesday afternoon.
Ever since then, like, felt a little bit different.
Yeah.
But I don't know. What was this time?
It took me a while to get any kind of measurable thing.
But it eventually admitted 10 to 30 minutes.
Some people may develop some, like, symptoms of some kind.
30 to 120 minutes, higher chance of noticeable symptoms.
like headache, dizziness.
Okay.
Mild nausea, coughing slash throat irritation.
If you're a wuss, like me.
But then repeated exposure, like, days and weeks
is where in the most consistent issues show up.
Like, it's going to go away.
But it can't affect wusses in the short term.
Oh, yeah.
This is only if you're a wuss.
That was like the first thing.
That was the thing it could confidently tell me.
Okay.
Is if you're affected, you're a major wuss.
Stop being a baby and just get over it.
Yeah.
It's allergies for the second year in a row.
Yeah, I don't know.
Maybe it's just a placebo,
like in my head of like maybe I just
I'm a little bit under the weather
or whatever but like it feels like
that's my isolated event that like I started noticing
it. Yeah. But maybe it's just in my head of like
you were always kind of going to that direction
but anyway, I don't know.
How was everyone's Easter?
It was great.
How was yours timing?
That was awesome. Yeah?
Oh, time was chilling with the boys.
Oh yeah.
It was a great Easter. It's like one of the more unique
Easter's in my life.
Yeah, all the guys from Canada,
We're in town and we went to Brad's church, Zach's church.
Yeah.
For the...
Yeah, it's our church together.
Zach's peace.
Oh, yeah, we go to the same church.
Yeah, we're just saying church.
We sat together sometimes.
Sing him together.
Is he crying there at the end together?
Yeah.
I have black mold in my throat.
Okay, dude.
Yeah, my Easter is great.
We went to church in the morning, all the boys and then went to Zach's house for lunch.
Fun.
His parents and his family hosted like that.
Zach sauce?
Great.
No.
That's Saxby's jokes.
Strange.
But then went to my house for like dinner in the evening.
It was awesome.
It was so fun that there's like, they all met.
It was like introduced to my friends to the, I mean, my friends that I was still
kind of getting to know more to the family.
And like, that was so fun.
Yeah, because remind us, so it's Curtis and then some other dudes.
What are the other guys?
Curtis, Brian, Brody, and Isaac.
Okay.
From, from, they live in Chatham, Canada.
but I met them in Niagara, which is, they're not the same place.
Okay.
But this was when Zach and I were chilling in Ohio filming the TV show.
And Zach, from the moment we like went there, he was like, I think it'd be fun to drive
to Canada while we're here, just because he was like, I don't know, it'd be just a fun.
We're kind of like, we're three and a half hours from the border if we have like some off
days.
That close in Ohio?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Ohio is a border?
Or does it, does it, you have to go to another state first?
I don't remember.
Ohio's not touching Canada.
Is it Jake?
No, because I think it's New York.
I think we drove through New York at some point.
Got it.
But Jake.
Is Ohio touching a great lake?
It's got to be, right?
Yes.
Yes.
It does.
Yeah.
We're presented by major oysters.
Keep going.
Anyway.
So then...
You're just thinking northeast.
Zach was like,
we've got to find some time to do this.
And then I don't remember...
We were talking about this last weekend.
We don't really remember exactly how it came up
between Zach and Kurt.
But they were like...
Oh, we call him Kurt.
Oh, he's Kurt.
Oh, he's Kurt.
Oh, Big C.
All right.
And somehow they got DMing like,
Kurt's like, I mean, we're doing a kind of boys weekend in Niagara.
If you guys...
And it was like, that kind of aligns with our off days.
Yeah.
And so we drove kind of through the night to meet them,
like got to the Airbnb at like 3.30 a.m.
Okay.
Slept and just spent two straight days, just having fun.
But yeah, anyway,
really just hit it off with them that weekend.
And it was like, come visit us.
So we ran it back and it was kind of like double the amount of time, just three plus
days straight of just doing stuff the whole time.
Yeah, that's fun.
How far was their drive?
13 hours.
Okay.
Yeah.
That's like us going to the beach.
Kind of surprising.
Yeah.
I could drive to Canada faster than I could drive to Gulf Shores.
Yeah.
It's kind of wild.
I give Catherine a hard time saying that we're in the north.
Maybe we are.
Yeah.
We're in Canada.
Wow, okay.
Yeah.
Yeah, I, you know, I have that, I have like a Google camera on the house,
like on the exterior of the house.
And it notifies me when it sees a person or whatever.
So everyone's like the next morning I'd wake up and it'd be like,
person detected, 245 a.m.
And it's like, the boy's getting home or something.
I'm like, two bags of Taco Bell, a couple of chicks,
a couple of midges behind them.
Or it's like, you know, person detective.
Yeah, exactly.
948 a.m.
And it's Zach looking ridiculous.
and whatever he's wearing.
Oh, yeah.
Anyway, but yeah, they look,
it sounded like you guys had some fun.
It was awesome.
Yeah.
I mean, I guess I wrote down some highlights.
I could go through the,
what?
Would you say you wrote down some what?
Some highlights.
Oh, highlights.
I thought you said some pilots.
Like, we've knocked out a couple,
like, just like TV shows that I could show you guys.
Yeah, I wrote down all the pilots we did watch.
We're calling it Kurt and the Canadians.
Yeah.
You watched a couple.
We wrote a couple.
I'll share them all with you.
Yeah, you think it's like a, like a time where there's hanging out playing video games.
It's like, no, you get up, they're like all around the dining table.
Like, all right, they have a whiteboard.
Okay, yeah.
So protagonist, what's the story arc on this?
Okay, give me, what do you think this character's voice sounds like?
Okay, yeah, I can see that.
Yeah.
All right, so some pilots.
All right, what are your pilots?
So the first, they got there Thursday evening.
And Brian was just already just randomly fixated.
He was like, we need to, we need to go play pool somewhere.
I was like, all right, never.
Never have I ever gone somewhere just like public just to play pool.
Really?
Funny fixation.
We really should find a pool house.
Okay.
Pool house.
That's how they,
it's like,
pool house.
I'm kind of like,
pool house.
I know the Canadian culture now.
Yeah,
yeah.
But we did.
We tried a couple places that turned us away because we were under 21.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Um,
but then we found a place.
I'm now forgetting what it's called,
but it was like,
Dave and Busters?
That,
yeah,
yeah.
Like Dave.
Ellis's basement.
Like you just had to find.
Honestly, we grew up with a pool table.
You could have gone to my parents' house.
Ended up having a great time.
It was like a very...
At first, I was a little nervous
walking in this tiny pool bar
with no windows.
But then we had a great time.
And, like, played a bunch of pool.
It was where I don't know if this is...
I'm assuming this is normal,
but it was like you would kind of...
If you kept winning rounds, you would keep the table.
People would, like, put quarters in a slot.
I was going to ask the stack of quarters
on the table and everything.
What's the stack of quarters?
I think it's like, it's almost like paddle stack and pick a ball.
Like my stack of quarters says like I've got next, basically.
Yeah, so that was fun.
We were there for like almost three hours probably.
Real pool shark.
Just playing pool.
Was the, who is it that recommended going?
Brian.
Was Brian just a baller?
Total shark.
He started out.
Billier baller.
Rough.
I was like, this is the guy that wanted to go.
But then he actually, Brian the whole weekend was like, okay, this guy's just kind
of naturally coordinated.
He's one.
He's like Luke Hoagland.
Yeah.
So what is the name of this?
pilot, would you say? Would you guys end up titling it?
This was episode one
House of Pool.
House of Pool. It's kind of a, yeah.
What would you call it? Pool Hall?
I think he first said pool hall.
Billiard Hall. They were interchangeable. Pool Hall and Pool House.
Pool house.
So is pool big in Canada?
I don't really. And they like it there? Or like this is an
American thing while we're here. We have to get barbecue and play pool.
Yeah, maybe. Maybe he's like, that's why he wasn't very good.
Because he's like, well, if he played once in my life,
it was the other time I came here.
I've only seen it in pilots and other.
No, I think
I think Brian just likes pool.
Maybe in a specific
time of his life or really, I think he was like,
I haven't played pool for over like 24 hours.
I need to, I need to get a game in.
I mentioned you get the chalk back on the queue.
Yeah.
I mean, I don't hate like,
do you ever go through phases or like
hang out with friends or like, I'm really into this?
Like, I remember
when I was in Spain studying abroad,
one of my buddies was also there
in a different city, and I went and visit him,
and he and all his friends were super into darts.
And so we went to, like, the local bar there
and, like, played darts, like, every night.
And it was a blast.
I've heard if you get into darts, it's pretty fun.
Yeah.
Or, like, in high school, we got really into tennis one year.
Like, and Scott and I would play tennis all the time.
Or, like, pickleball, obviously, or golf.
Or, like, it's like, once you get into something random together,
it's pretty fun.
You know, settlers or whatever.
It is fun to dive in, take the plunge.
Yeah, so.
Yeah, I'm kind of on the pool train now.
Are you?
Pito.
You were into Pito.
for a while. Yeah, yeah, yeah. After they left, I went to my friend Ben's house. He has a pool table
and his basement. I was like, I'll play some more pool. Yeah. Yeah. Okay, what else? Um, I had,
okay, so the first morning that, uh, the boys were in town played pickleball. And morning,
it was like, kind of wake up at 10.30, slowly get around like, we're going to get breakfast
at some point. Ended up getting breakfast more on lunchtime. And then in an end up,
that's how it has to be. Yeah. We had a burger for breakfast.
breakfast. That's how it should be, man. I'm glad that you're not like too, too mature yet.
Yeah. No, it was, it was nice. Yeah. It was like, oh, I'm remembering now we had, so our breakfast
was at first watch. That's where businesses are built. Yeah. That's what everyone says. I'm just the
only one building one. But it's going well. Everyone else is missing out. I'm remembering now that
just like in the, you know, 20 minutes before our food's getting here, we just like,
for 20 minutes straight played.
I don't know what you...
There's not anything.
What we were just like tried to get
the salt shaker,
like slide it to the very edge of the table.
Oh.
It kind of put me on to this.
I was like,
I need to be spending my past time
at restaurants doing this more.
Okay.
A rest fun game is,
what's the football one called?
I forget what we called it,
but you can do it like...
The paper...
Paper football?
Yeah.
You've got to be careful not to go over your booth.
Yeah, I mean, yeah,
hopefully you're...
Oh, you're talking about.
about like on the table.
Yeah,
where it's like,
it can hang off the table.
The goal is to get the triangle
to hang off the table.
That's what we were trying to do
with the,
yeah.
Back in the day,
did you ever do like the goal post?
And then you score,
okay,
extra point.
Yeah, yeah, yeah,
okay, okay,
but there's guys behind this.
Let's just say you got seven.
Let's just say you got seven.
Isaac,
you already hit it over there once.
But the main event of that day
was pickleball.
And we had,
Zach was pretty set on this
and it was great.
He was like,
we should all go to,
we should all go to a thrift store
first and like,
get each other outfits.
That we have to wear for
all.
And boy,
and it was even better
than I could have imagined.
I mean,
it was just like,
I accidentally,
I thought it'd be funny
if I got Zach stuff
that was a little too small
because like I,
we would spin a wheel
to see you like,
I didn't,
I underestimated how too small
this stuff would be.
And it was borderline inappropriate.
Yeah.
But that was,
he still played pickleball in it.
Um,
but we just,
yeah,
there's,
I can't remember who got what,
but just pretty ridiculous outfits.
it was great. And I recommend that as a
activity. I think it's fun.
I don't recommend
getting the guy who has like a
pretty bad cat allergy,
just like unwashed thrift store clothes.
Kurt, his,
one of his eyes was pretty
like swollen by the end.
So that was too bad.
We had to stop at CBS for him to get an allergy pill.
Oh wow. Okay. What'd you end up wearing?
What was I in? I had
was kind of lucky. I mean,
mine, it looked stupid and ridiculous.
Like it was some kind of, I want to say,
foreign language soccer type shirt,
but just like,
just bright colors everywhere,
just like bad graphic design.
I can't remember what it was called.
But it was like pretty comfortable and athletic.
So I felt fine.
And I think I had these shorts that had just like black
with rose,
rose print on it.
Sounds like betters.
I look pretty nice.
Tuesday.
But I,
but Isaac had picked me out.
He got me.
flip-flops. I didn't know shoes were on the table. I ended up playing barefoot, which was actually
fun. I had never played. There's a ravens, doesn't he? Yeah, there's a local legend around here
who hasn't worn shoes for like 10 years. Really? Big in a pickleball. Huh. Believe it or not.
We met him on a hot tub. Really? Okay. Yeah. Like he'd be kind of unique. Uh-huh.
We spent like 30 minutes with him in the hot tub one day. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. He was happy to talk
about it. Who else was there? Was it? That was when Kyle was in time. Yeah. And yeah, we get
talking about feet long enough and then we go, let's see him. And then he's holding up his
feet for us to look at. Oh, man. Things are big. He's like, they can't kick you out. They can't do it.
I go in there barefoot with my cat on my shoulder all the time. Right? Something like that.
I was like, all right. Loz is good with it. Mallmart's fine with it. You know, do not go to this
place. Like, Hy-Vee does not like it. I don't know. Like, he's all mapped out. Yeah. That's so interesting.
I don't know if I've ever talked about this in the podcast,
but I thought this would be a fun concept for a date.
So,
girls got mild,
former co-star,
Morgan Noonan and I,
I took her out on a date way back in the day.
And I was like,
Morgan seems like a fun girl.
That's what we're going to do.
I'm going to give her $10 and I have $10.
And before we go out to,
I think we went to some like a barcade kind of thing.
Before we go do that,
like in public,
we have to find each other outfits.
and like I got her like kind of like a I don't know what it was like a helmet and a you know
graduation gown or something kind of like ridiculous and then she basically just like cross-dressed
me I was like uh she was like I thought you were picking out stuff for yourself so here you go
it's it looks like my old prom dress yeah I thought I was pretty confident going in that date
I was like yeah chief cheerleader yeah put me whatever out for you want I don't even care and
I was like, I don't like this.
I don't like the lace I'm wearing and like this isn't good.
Did you wear it?
And then I ran into an old K-Life family.
No.
And I was, I mean, stammering to say, I'm on a, I'm on a silly, I'm on a date.
I'm on.
It's her makeup.
It's her makeup on me.
I'm sorry.
It's a pilot.
It's a pilot.
It's hidden cameras.
Yeah.
Yeah, it's eyeliner, okay?
But she told me it would make my eyes pop.
It's minimalistic eyeliner.
It's chill.
It was Claire Long's parents.
Oh, man.
That's a bummer.
Saw them there.
That's great.
So you were wearing what exactly?
I don't actually remember,
but I'm thinking like,
oh,
this isn't silly,
this is girly.
And you're like downtown
where,
you know,
people are expressing themselves
a little more probably.
Oh, yeah.
I was an icon for trans rights
unknowingly.
I mean,
they were,
it's like a rested development
where what's the name Tobias
gets on the float and everything.
Like,
yeah,
I became their queen.
Yeah, right, exactly. People were flocking towards you. Oh, man, that's great. I haven't, I haven't heard that. I knew that you went on some dates with her. I did not know that's what you did.
Yeah, I think we went on one other one and we were wearing our own stuff. And I think that was it.
I think we're good here. All right. You want to do a YouTube channel, though? Oh, man. That's great. I was like, look, I still want to be friends. Take my dunk tank. And then that kind of smooths everything over.
It's like great. Wow. That's very selfless of you.
Can I read you guys something that I wrote?
Yes.
I am Cam. That Cam I am. Would you like green eggs and cam? I do not like these cam. I am.
I do not like these green eggs and cam. Would you like them here or there?
I would.
I would not like them here or there. I do not like green eggs and cam. I do not like them Cam. I do not like them in a bank. Would you like them in a bank?
Oh.
Would you like them in a tank?
Oh, you wrote this.
Yeah.
I do not like them on the run.
I would like them in a fund.
Oh.
I'm looking like I'm still reading.
It says,
I would not, could not.
I would not, could not.
In a sec, I would like, please like them in index.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Good rhyme.
And good writing, dude.
Thanks. Oh, hold on. Let me get back to the script here. Let's see what I wrote.
I please would like them for Rachel and me. I would like them in S&P.
Oh, very good. 500.
Perhaps.
Keep it 500.
I would like, I...
Yes.
I would not like them, Cam I am.
I would not like...
I can't think of any rhymes of that.
Cam I am?
I would not like to have any debt.
I would not like that at all.
You bet.
You bet.
You bet.
You bet, man.
100%.
Okay, I was joking to you guys.
Actually, I didn't write that.
That was an exact conversation I had with Cam.
Yeah.
And you're like, we have to ride him the whole time.
Yeah.
It's probably tough to know which parts were me and which parts were him.
But that was our first phone call.
That was the transcript.
Yeah.
He said, hey, would you mind being poor the rest of your life?
And you were like, I would not like that, Cam.
I am.
I am. I would not like that in the future. I would not like that Camcoma I am. Yeah.
I would like that's how that went. And he said, well, let me help you with that because that's what I do. I am.
Cam, I am. Anyway, uh, Cam's great. He's our, the official financial strategist, advisor,
debt consolidator. I don't know. That sounded good of the podcast. And I have literally,
I'm not literally. I was going to say I've literally put my money where my mouth is. But that would be stuff.
in cash into my face.
You have not literally done.
So I haven't, but I've gotten close to, I have physically invested money with Cam.
You believe in the product.
Yeah, you wouldn't, you're not just saying, hey, do it.
But it's not like Mitt Mobile or something where it's like, hey, Mitt Mobile's here.
We love Mitt Mobile.
Hey, we're sponsored by Kia.
It's like, no or not.
Like, we're not Kia people.
Yes, I have literally invested money with Cam I am.
Yeah.
and so just let that be the proof and the pudding for you.
Yes.
Yes.
You're in your hands with Cam.
I plan.
I plan to someday.
I plan I am.
But not quite yet because.
Remediate-ish.
Yeah.
I need some money to do it.
But yeah, Cam's the man in more ways than one.
And yeah, it's just one of those things where it's like, we all know it's the right thing to do to invest our money and like let it compound.
and like let it grow over time and it feels good to be responsible but it's also easy to put off
and so this is our call to you right now to look at the cam and the mirror and ask him to change
change your ways change your ways yeah so uh give us the uh call call to action for him oh old cam
you put it all in the uh description but yeah it's old linewealth.com um which is like a company
that it's with prudential, you know, if you need the name brand recognition there. So,
yeah, it's all, you know, very legitimate. I've gotten everything in the mail and, you know,
it's, it's all protected. It's all, it's all good. It's all good. Just trust me. You could trust
Cam. We put our money there. So yeah, you can email him below, check out the website below,
and we'd appreciate it. Yeah, old ninemouth.com. Okay, Tyman, more. Give us some more pilots.
Yes. Okay. Third pilot, shooting guns.
Oh, yeah.
We went to Zach's house, and it's America.
So you want to shoot some guns.
I didn't realize, first of all, I mean, just how many, like,
what variety and amount of guns that Zach's family owns.
That was fun.
Didn't realize Zach was such a gun pro.
I think it was like, I just happened to have been raised in a family.
It was like, we don't really like necessarily just have guns around.
And I was like, it was kind of fun to watch Zach snap into gun safety course mode because
you have to if you're just going to like,
introduce a bunch of Canadians to shoot it.
They'd never seen a gun before.
They didn't know what they were.
Now these only have swords.
Yeah.
And so it's actually really fun.
And I ended up, like, I have, I've shot a shotgun, I think is the correct term, once.
Like shooting.
Shot a shotgun.
Oh, we talked about this.
At Thanksgiving, like shot Clay Pigeons or whatever.
I done that once, but like really not familiar with guns.
And neither were the Canadian guys.
that was super fun.
Did you guys shoot Clay's or did you...
We did some of that.
We did like,
there were some handguns.
There was a,
this like authentic World War II rifle.
Cool.
That was like...
Authentic.
The kick on that was crazy.
Oh, really?
But I was one of the only ones
that hit the target with that one.
Come on, baby.
Don't think.
But yeah,
that was really fun.
I'm trying to think of highlights.
Oh, yeah.
So our friend Peter,
who is local joint...
It was kind of fun
picking up random,
like, tag-alongs who would,
like see who stuck around for the rest of the activities.
Um,
but Peter was around a lot of the,
a lot of the time.
And he like was in charge of throwing the,
the clays most of time.
Okay.
And so, um,
Isaac from Canada,
you know,
he,
okay,
this was funny.
He like,
was one of the few that claimed to have somewhat of a history with guns.
He was like,
I went to a gun club.
Oh.
Um,
and so there's just one throw that Peter is like,
he accidentally goes way left with it.
And like,
basically Isaac just like is tracking it just like points it almost right at Peter.
And it was like, huh, Peter could have just like died.
Yeah.
It was, it was wild.
It's like, um, but then I mean, we're, we're laughing about it and like, it wasn't
actually directly at him.
It was like, you know, everyone's like, whoa, whoa.
Um, and we, Isaac kind of went by Isaac Gun Club Davey for, for a while.
That's good.
For a while.
That's pretty great.
Um, yeah.
I try to imagine ever shooting a gun anywhere near.
one of my friends.
Yeah.
He didn't pull a trigger.
He knows what he did.
He knows what he did.
He knows what the boy knows.
Bradley.
Yeah.
I'm trying to think
of like specific stories.
Nothing as much coming to mind.
But that was,
those were some of the greatest hits of activities.
Yeah.
It was a good time.
I texted Zach this Monday.
Okay.
We had a, you know,
long week with the boys,
but I went to text on Monday.
Hey dude,
how's the,
how was the footage from Paola looking?
And,
uh,
he said,
for song choice, how do you feel about I'm a B by Black Eyed Peas?
And I just didn't respond.
I kind of like it.
I mean, that's all he said.
He didn't say like, it's going well.
He said it's looking good as far as song choice.
How do you feel about I'm a B?
Do you know that song, timing?
No.
Can you?
Okay, I didn't know if time was like secretly like, I mean, I actually suggested it.
Yeah, I was, I had his phone.
I mean, there's worse songs in the world.
Not that many, though.
Like that would be on your band playlist for wedding.
It goes like this time.
And it's a, it's just a really thoughtful.
And listen to the lyrics when he says these.
Don't get caught up in the melody.
Because the melody is all over the place, but listen to the lyrics.
All right.
So, yeah, see if you can, there's, there's, there's, there's hidden meaning behind everything.
Yeah, it's a pilot.
I'm a bee. I'm a, I'm a, I'm a, I'm a, I'm a, I'm a, I'm a, I'm a, I'm a, I'm a, I'm a, I'm a, I'm a, I'm a, I'm a, I'm a, am a, I'm a, am a, am a
I'm a-a-a-be.
Dude, okay.
Yeah, okay, Zach.
It's pretty sick, dude.
That's most of the chorus.
And then I think it has some words, some language, some laying, from what I know.
Like bad language?
Yeah.
So, I don't know.
He's a gun guy.
He's a words guy.
So what did you say back to, you didn't respond?
I didn't respond.
That's pretty Zach, I think.
That's great.
There's some, listen, I think there's worse songs.
I think it could be a cool.
montage song.
I've seen, what's it?
There's a, there's a movie that has it in there.
Just so many other songs.
Yeah, you're right.
There's a movie that has that in there.
I want to say it's the other guys, maybe.
Holy cow, Zach directed that.
He didn't produce it.
No, no, okay.
There's a difference.
Yeah.
The other, there's some, like, scene where, like,
I do kind of, it's like, it's like,
it's like the song is going and everything's in like,
yeah, it is the other guys.
Either slow motion.
Yeah, or slow motion, still.
It's like this crazy, kind of,
cool, whatever. And it was kind of a cool shot. I don't know. So maybe if you're going to do that,
did you have you guys all stand still for a long time? We didn't do any kind of like slow-mo,
not that I know of. What was that called back in the day? The something challenge?
Manikin. Manikin challenge. You ever hear about that time? Yeah. I vaguely remember seeing that
on my earliest exposure to social media. It's like, this is what it's like. Zach Beals in the city.
Yeah. Zach decided at the top of the weekend,
So most of the weekend
we were driving
we would kind of just cram
six of us into Zach's
Subaru for most of the places we went
and he just decided
that kind of every time we would drive
he would play Dark Horse by Katie Perry
and it was
it's funny, it's just, it's very Zach
because it's like the first time
the first few times it was like
ah it's funny it's that song
and it was like all right
I think we're just doing this every time
it was great
that's pretty funny
yeah that's a good that's a good bit though
oh yeah no it's great
that's how you make
inside jokes. Yeah, I love it. That is great. Well, time and tell them about, what was it,
Monday morning? It wasn't that big of a deal. Oh, yeah. So Monday, I had, I had meeting, a scheduled
appointment to meet with this person who's going to, I think, be the one cleaning this Airbnb every
time somebody's. Miguel. Yes. Her name is Veronica. Anyway, and so I was getting ready to meet with her.
I think she was like, yeah, I'll come at 11. She hadn't texted me yet.
I was like, I think she's still coming at 11.
So I texted her at 10.30.
Yeah, yeah, I'll still, I'll be there at 11.
And so I had texted time.
And I think earlier that morning.
Timon is that.
Hey, FYI, I have an appointment with the cleaners from 11.
What time are you guys planning on being out of there?
Don't hear anything back from the boys for a while.
And so finally at like 1035, I was like, I should probably call them.
Okay.
And first of all, I call Timon.
I don't call Timon very often.
You call Timon ever?
I don't call timing very often.
Timon, you're a time.
answering machine, your voicemail,
is what you guys, the modern
day people call it.
Is it, is it you
recording something that sounds like AI, or
is it AI? Let me, let me call
time in real quick. Sure, I'm very curious what
this is going to be about.
Let's see.
Because I can't remember
what my voicemail is, if that's
nervous. Well, it's because what ended up happening
was why I ask why
I'm not sure is because
you
answered halfway through the voicemail, like greeting.
I don't know if I like that.
I don't know if I like that we can do that these days.
But it sounded a little bit like AI,
but also was like, this could also just be somebody like Timon being silly and
recording something like it.
So, but anyway, long story short,
time and was in fact asleep, as was Zach.
He's like, yeah, yeah.
I said, are you awake?
He's like, as of like five seconds ago, yeah.
It's like, all right, you got to get him up.
I'm sorry.
Yeah, but I felt bad.
Let's see.
Timon, do you want to answer that?
You want to press end so we hear the voice?
Oh, I didn't know if that.
Here we go.
Please leave your message for 9.1, 3, 4, 8, 8, 3.
First of all, that's that.
That does sound like a weird voice.
I swear it was different the other day.
Oh, it sounds like a robot.
All right, fair.
It didn't like Simon at all.
I swear.
I swear it was like a man's voice the last time.
Oh, interesting.
Now I'm creeped out, dude.
Voicemail if you press it in the call.
Yeah, I always thought that you, if you pressed end, it just like didn't do anything.
It would just like cancel it.
What?
I thought voicemail was for when it just like went on and then they didn't answer, then the voicemail.
I don't know how anything works.
All right.
One more time.
Just, I'll, just in case there's a difference.
Just to validate me.
But anyway, it sounds like timing did not use a, or use.
use one of his friends to like be silly.
Yeah. I should though.
I would like to be one of those guys.
Like I'd be okay with that that has like a funny scripted voicemail
like involving multiple people.
That sounds fun.
Yeah, or just sing to him.
I think you've got a few years of your life
where you're allowed to have a silly voicemail.
Yeah.
Your call has been forwarded to voicemail.
The person you're trying to reach is not available.
Who is that?
At the tone, please record your message.
When you have finished recording, you may hang up.
Who? Timon, did you get DJ?
JX to record a voicemail message for you?
That, okay, that's, first of all, I'm not crazy.
Yeah, you're right. Yep.
There's a different voice. Yeah.
But also, interesting that there's a different, like.
And also, yeah, time is right.
I'm glad that I'm validated for thinking.
I would have never thought there would be different responses to, like,
send him to voicemail no matter what.
So if you get that greeting, maybe for sure, it's somebody's ignoring you.
I don't know.
That's interesting.
But who is that guy?
I've never heard that.
No, that's what I'm saying.
It was like, it sounds like something that a Gen Z kid would know something or like do some other recording or being silly.
Like, yeah, we actually just had Oliver do that one night.
We were bored at home.
That's what I was curious about it.
Huh.
I called Luke Kogan the other day and his voicemail was something.
I literally, all I said in my message to him was, you would have some dumb voicemail like this.
It's like, it's like something like, please wait while we get a response back from the person.
you're trying to call.
And then it's like three seconds.
It's like, they said they're busy and they'll call you back.
I'm like, what?
Just do a normal one, please?
Anyway, it was something like that.
I'd never heard that before.
I don't know.
I'm blind to the world of fun, weird, crazy voicemail.
Well, and then there's this new thing.
I don't have it set up yet, but like you can have somebody like to avoid scam calls.
You can have that setting on your phone where it's like they have to tell you why you're
calling them.
You've heard this?
Like you have to like identify.
who you are. It's like, please tell us why you're calling and then we'll basically let you through
or not kind of thing. I don't know. Huh. So all sorts of things with phones, guys, but.
Fones are crazy. Yeah, sounds like Time and the Boys had fun. Yeah. I'm trying to get some critical
feedback from them, but for most part, it seems like they just had good feedback. I was trying,
yeah, trying to think. But truly, it was just like, besides that toilet paper holder, which you'd
already mentioned, it was like, this was a great well-furnished house.
Sweet.
It's great.
Success.
Yeah, exactly.
How is your house doing?
It is fine.
It is officially dry and clean down there.
They had all the sensors and stuff, and they came by, they came by on Friday, I think.
And we're like, yeah, it's still kind of wet down there.
Because they, like, clean out all the two by four, like studs.
Like, like, some of the wood is still wet.
Okay.
So this is funny.
And in hindsight, I agree with Catherine, but they're like, we can come back on Sunday if you want.
And like, these fans are kind of loud downstairs.
Like, and like there was one upstairs for a while.
And so it kind of like drives you, drives you crazy a little bit.
It's kind of like low-key torture, in my opinion.
Like, we can't watch TV very easily.
Like, we can't really even have conversations.
It's that loud.
Yeah.
I mean, it's loud enough.
It's not like it's, we can't, we can function okay, but we can't enjoy most of our
house anymore. And so they're like, we can come back Sunday if you want to. And I was like,
yeah, great. You can come back anytime Sunday. We'll give you the code to even come in,
whatever. And Catherine's like, it's Easter. I can't come back on Sunday. Like, I'm like, well,
they work 20, like they're on call 24 seven. Like they, somebody's working no matter if we say for
them to come or not, you know, Catherine's like, but it's the principle of the thing. Have you come back on
Monday. So I was like, she's right. We should, yeah, honor that day. But I'm like, I just want to get these
fans out of our house as soon as possible.
So,
but they came back Monday and it's all good.
So now the process is just like figuring out,
getting bids for all this stuff and getting the insurance adjuster all these
bids and having him come out.
It's just,
I told somebody the other day,
I was like,
I don't always say this,
but like right now I just feel way,
like I feel like there's way more to do than I have time for.
Like,
yeah,
I just feel overwhelmed is not the right word.
Well, yeah,
maybe it is the right word because sometimes it's like,
I have so much to,
do that I don't know what to do. Like, it's like, where do I even start doing stuff? Like, I could do
this over here, this over here, like this right in front of me, you know, but it's good. I mean,
it's just one of those things where every day I feel like I go to bed like, oh man, I got a lot to do
tomorrow. Okay, I got to figure this out. So like yesterday, I think I met with like six different
people, you know, throughout the day, like different appointments, either here or at the flip house
or, and then I bow had his first baseball practice. We went right from there to church. And
So it's just like a busy, busy season.
But, yeah.
I mean, overall, it's going to be good, though.
It's going to be.
They're going to remediate it all.
They remediated it all.
They're going to, like, reconstruct all that area of the basement, which is good.
It's just a matter of making sure we do all the right things with insurance and don't go in the wrong order.
Like, insurance is a racket, dude.
I just don't understand.
Yeah, yeah, I'm out.
Yeah, dude.
It's like, I'm very grateful that they're going to pay us for this thing.
But it's like, I pay you every month.
And you get mad if I don't pay you on time.
all of a sudden when I need you.
Like, yeah, we'll come in like three weeks.
It's like, all right.
I need you.
Like a good neighbor.
I thought you guys were going to be there.
So anyway, but yeah, it's fine.
Overall, it smells normal down there.
Yeah, the yard doesn't have poop it anymore.
You know, we're making strides.
Do the kids care?
Do they notice?
No.
I think Hattie, well, I think they care.
about not being able to go down in the basement.
Like for,
they cared about that because that's where Haddy
love to spend like her quiet time in the afternoons.
But, um,
no,
I mean,
it's been such nice weather and stuff.
They're just playing outside all the time.
So,
um,
yeah,
they're all good with it.
They definitely noticed the smell when they first would go,
like,
there was times where Bo wanted to go get his legos downstairs.
I'm like,
you can go down there and grab something and come back up.
He's like,
I can't do it.
It stinks.
Yeah.
Like plug your nose and go down there.
So,
Anyway, but it's, it's fine.
All right, it's time to talk about our featured sponsor, our sponsor of the episode today, Main Street Roasters.
Feature sponsor.
Feature sponsor.
We are, there's feature sponsors or tile sponsors.
There's favorite coffee sponsors.
There's coffee sponsors that are only, that are from Indiana.
Main Street Roasters is all of them.
Yep, it does it all.
They do it all.
Just got done with my Costa Rican beans last week.
I'm on to, I believe, Tanzania Peaberry beans.
And I'm going to be honest, because I'm being honest in this.
I don't want you to ever think like, but I was just saying everything's good.
I like the Costa Rica ones, a tad bit more.
Okay.
Costa Rica ones, A plus plus.
Tanzania and Peaberry, I'm going to go B plus.
It's still real good.
But you have your preferences.
I know, I know my preferences.
This one's just a little bit not as good.
But even that's the thing about Maitre Rojas, even like the stuff that's like,
just not perfect is still way better than like every other coffee that I have.
Your least favorite mainstream roasters blend is better.
Yeah, than every other place.
Like then,
and it's a good deal and your support and ghosties and yeah,
everything about it.
Like the price is always good there.
And we just love supporting ghosty supported businesses,
ghosty run businesses.
And the price is 10% off.
It's already affordable.
Take 10% off with.
promo code GRKC and support our longest running sponsor we ever had. The best title sponsor.
Title. Yeah. Feature. Yeah. Maine. Our Easter was fun. It was kind of like a three-day Easter.
I mean, because we obviously we did Good Friday. And then Saturday we had Easter egg hunt slash
Easter brunch with my family. And then obviously Sunday was Easter church. And we went to military
Bob's house for lunch. That's fun. And, uh, and, uh,
But yeah, Friday, our good Friday service our church is really big.
Like we have two of them.
And one of the responsibilities of the deacons is to serve communion at church.
Cool.
And just kind of circumstantially, I have not been available to do that yet.
And so my first time to do it was like, you know, packed house, good Friday.
Super Bowl.
And like, on one hand, it's pretty easy.
Like, we're at one of those churches that like passes them through the rows.
We don't have people go to the front to take communion.
got you.
But at the same time, I was like nervous.
I was like, I hope I do this, right?
And there was only one time, like, right before I went, I was like, oh, I need to pass.
I was going down like an aisle and I was like, I need to pass to this aisle, but also I
need to like turn around and get this eye.
And so, yeah, there was only one time where I was about to pass down the aisle and I noticed
they were already starting the other direction.
And I kind of fake the girl out.
I was like, never mind.
Jab stepper.
Yeah.
going back door.
I did.
And I jokingly was just like,
you don't get any, sorry.
She thought it was funny,
but yeah,
I was like nervous about it,
but I think I did fine.
The nervous communion guy.
Yeah,
there's a pile for you.
Take,
take this in remembrance of me.
Just do it.
Just do it in the remembrance.
Jesus said that.
Not me.
Not me.
Not me.
Jesus said.
Not me.
I'm just quoting.
I'm quoting.
Yeah,
pass your hotel,
though.
So anyway,
it was,
it was fine.
Well,
great,
give yourself? Oh, I'm pretty hard of myself, so I'd give myself probably an A plus. A plus Deacon. A minus,
A minus. Okay. I would say, I think, I think composure wise, out of the park. Yeah. No one knew.
Yeah. No one knew I was sweating bullets under those pits. That's why you were two layers.
That's right. But yeah, I did, I did have a little, little hesitation on that top. It was the top row, so that's, that's where it got. I got too
comfortable up there. Took my eye off the ball. So anyway, but I've just learned like in every,
in every situation these days where I don't know what I'm doing. I just tell something. I'm like,
I'm a little bit, I'm a little bit nervous about this. Is there anything I need to like think?
I used to just be like, oh, I don't know. I don't want to tell people I'm struggling with this.
I think it's something that, yeah, you and I've developed our 30s and like somehow timing already has
it, you know, like when you shot the wedding, you're like, hey guys, don't do this off and
I'm going to look at my phone and look for a poses.
Yeah.
That's a good skill you already have.
Seriously.
Because that's like, why not just ask somebody for this help?
And they'll be like, oh, yeah.
Like the confidence in humility.
That's how I describe it.
Like, yeah.
I'm confidently sharing with you that I don't know what's going on.
It's okay to not know how to do something you've never done before.
You know?
Like, it's okay to not like know how to do it perfectly and like to ask a question about it.
Unless you are like with like some sort of construction worker or like someone's
changing your oil.
and then don't tell that,
then just fake it.
I'm even,
yeah,
we're all set.
Okay,
yeah,
great.
The whole axle
needs to be changed.
All right,
yeah.
All right.
That sounds,
that sounds like a big,
so it's like going to be like a couple days.
Why be out of here in five minutes?
You can do it in seven,
seven minutes.
Got it.
Okay.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I've even started being like,
tell me,
tell me,
I don't know what that means.
You're the ones doing this.
I don't,
can you explain what that?
Is that necessary to do that?
I'll say that sometimes and they'll be like, no, it's not that big of a deal.
As long as you're not hearing anything, you'll be fine.
You're like, how do I reject optional cookies?
Like the equivalent of that to what you're forcing on me.
I want only the necessary ones.
It's nice, dude.
I have some friends that are like mobile mechanics, like almost like mechanics, but also have,
like we'll just do stuff for me on the side.
I'll take my list of stuff the dealership wants me to do.
Take a picture of it and say, do I need this?
Can you do this?
Is this something that needs like the computer thing, you know?
So that's kind of nice.
But yeah, anyway, Easter was fun.
I'm trying to think of any Easter egg hunt was good.
Henry's Blast.
I mean, they're all fun in the Easter egg hunt.
I don't know.
Do you grow up big?
This is a question for the tape for that room.
Were you guys big on the Easter bunny aspect of Easter?
Is it a kid?
I wasn't big on it, but we did have, we did get a present for,
But it was often like a functional present, like a belt.
Oven mitt.
An oven mitt was a big one for the girls.
My dad really wanted to emphasize that for a bit.
Yeah, like I feel like I got like, oh, you know,
because Easter's always the Sunday, it's like, you really dress up for Easter.
So you got to get in your belt or, you know, whatever.
Like I feel like we got like some candy and then something more like practical.
Okay.
Is the idea of the Easter bunny that he gives gifts?
What do you mean the idea?
No, does that what these are...
That's kind of what I was asking about.
I thought it was a bunny.
No, no, I thought I was like a local...
He only goes to certain areas.
You think it's a he for sure?
I lived not where they
would deliver the gifts.
Really?
Well, there's so many bunnies around.
That's what I was wondering.
You'd be surprised.
Where I live.
Not with Zach around.
Not a lot of squirrels and not a lot of bunnies.
So no, he didn't...
They didn't cover my area.
Okay.
You were outside of the...
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
Amazon drone delivery.
You're out of floodplain.
Yeah.
Yeah, I mean, I was the youngest.
I figured out, I learned about Santa and all of his antics and wonders.
I learned about those pretty early.
And so I think it was more just like a, oh, fun, Easter, Easter treat.
Easter bunny game, you know.
Did you do anything?
We kind of talked about the incorrect opinions.
I'm trying to remember, like, for whatever,
and I had a way easier time
with the tooth fairy
and with Santa Claus
and the whole like
extra large bunny rabbit
fair
who only he doesn't really
have any special talent
he just hides eggs
and not that craziest spots
honestly I found him pretty quickly
like it was like this isn't magical enough
for me now that what the tooth fairy is up to
that's crazy that's crazy
how do you know?
Yeah leprechauns
and how do you get there
leprecons are cool
like that makes sense
Santa's cool
but like when have you ever seen a bunny that big
That's the thing. It's too unrealistic.
They're always on their back two legs.
They're humongous.
Humongous.
They're not to scale.
And so I like the hunting.
I like the dying.
I really like everything but the large rabbit.
And we got gifts to.
We'd always get like a basket.
That's what I was going to say.
We did baskets.
It was like right outside my door, though, when I woke up.
I woke up and there's a little basket.
Or maybe it was on the dining table some years or something like that.
Oh, that reminds me of another story with the Canada boys.
we at Zach's house on Easter we did a
the name sounds wrong a Jesus hunt
now it was like those you know those little tiny Jesus figurines
yeah yeah that um that you see in random spots
it was just like a bunch of those that were hidden around
Zach's yard and his nephew Chris was like it was basically just
all of us guys got to make it Chris's best hunt of his life
it was just like we would we kept you know we're just
he's probably, I'm gonna get this wrong,
he probably eight or nine years old,
if I had to guess, just like, you know,
you just mess with them the whole time,
like, and just subtly guide him towards
where these are hidden and just like where,
there was this window sill that,
um,
initially had like four of them just all over it.
And it was like,
oh, like check this one,
like here's a bunch of them right here.
And then just every time he would turn away,
we'd like replenish it.
And it was just like,
it was great.
You keep forgetting to get these.
Yeah.
And so that was just so fun.
That was just like,
I love when,
everyone else is down to just be like, yeah, this doesn't matter.
Let's just make this, just make him find them everywhere.
It was so fun.
How many Jesus are we talking?
I think there were, I think he found 70.
Whoa.
Yeah.
It's a good hunt.
There's a good hunt.

It was mainly just this kid?
I mean, yeah, I think he, yeah, each of us ended with about maybe two or three
and then he had 70 something.
That's great.
Yeah, that's a good time.
Not bad, kid.
Yeah.
You went to Iowa. Tell us about it.
I did. Nice old time in Iowa.
Yeah, Rachel took a half day off work Friday.
Try to get up there early.
And, yeah, just kind of hung out.
I mean, we didn't even do that much, but it was still great.
I mean, just hung around the house, played some games, watched some home videos.
Okay.
That was fun, seeing the psycho that Rachel was as a kid.
How were we watching his home videos?
They still have a VCR.
Okay.
So it was fun.
We had to bring up a couple different TVs until we found one with the right, like, hookups and set, you know.
Yeah.
sports and stuff.
Rachel was a psycho?
A little bit.
Just like, just different than I was as a kid, you know, like, like my home videos are
my parents egging me on to do things.
And Rachel's home videos are they're like, Rachel, stop.
Calm down.
Quit it.
Yeah.
I mean, kind of.
I mean, she was a good kid and she was fun.
But yeah, I think her just growing up with two brothers on either side of her,
is different than how I was.
But it was really fun seeing her like that.
And then we did.
Easter service Saturday night at their church. But then Sunday morning, we still wanted to watch
the church that we go to when we were like visiting Rachel's grandma in Florida.
Oh, okay. I think I've talked about this on the podcast before. Yeah. Because, like, it's a great church
down there in like the Annemary Island area, Cortez, and we love the pastor. And so anyway, we turn
that on. And it's funny. Sorry, I think I do have allergies or something. I think it's more than just
I think I got what you guys got. Something. I know. Something's going on. Something in the
water. So as we turn it on, there's this whole debate in the family, like, all right,
we'll stream it to the TV. And then it's a Facebook stream. So on the right side, you could see
comments. Uh-oh. And Angie Coop is like, can we go full screen? It's the whole thing. And
Rachel's like, I kind of like the comments. She's like, of course you do. That's what your dad is
always saying. Your dad likes the comments too. He's like, I like seeing him. So there's this whole
back and forth. I'm like, should we, do we need the comments for a church live stream?
And they were about halfway through. Was there some comments? There's comments. Like a lot?
Not a lot, but there's some, you know, 10.
Yeah.
And about halfway through, the sound kind of goes out on the live stream,
so we're trying to figure out, is this RTV?
Is it not?
And what do you see?
Comet pops up.
It says, is anyone's sound not working for them?
So first of all, we're like, that's why you have a comment, son.
That's right.
That comment is from ghosty Angela Birdwell.
We're like, what?
What?
Oh, my gosh.
So I'm in there.
I go, Angela, didn't fancy sick you here.
Happy Easter.
Yeah.
What are the chances?
Has she just been like virtually going to church here for ever since you talked to
her about it?
She replied to my comment.
It was like, happy Easter.
I always love putting this on when I'm getting ready for church.
Wow.
Okay.
That's that.
That's a pre-workout.
We're pre-game in with Cortez.
Wow.
Wow, that's wild.
Yeah.
That's wild.
It was after we made this whole thing about, you know, the comments.
No, you're going to want the...
Yeah, yeah, we need that on.
Dude, what are the chances?
I had no idea.
If you guys want to also tune in, I just double-checked it.
It's Harvey, Harvey Memorial Community Church, Bradenton Beach, Florida.
Okay.
That's where Angela pre-games, you can too.
That's amazing, dude.
I couldn't believe it.
Jump in those comments next time you're putting some hands.
spray in. I don't know what girls do. Say what's up to Angela next week this Sunday. That's
amazing. That's so good. Yeah, were you just, were you like, maybe it's a different Angela
Birdwell? Was there any? I think right away. I was like, that has to. It has to be. My only thought
was like, can she somehow see that you are watching it? And so she also like, I mean, this is probably
like Steve Coop's Facebook account. That's what I'm saying is probably not even your account. Like,
that's insane, man. Okay.
kind of fun, little Easter miracle.
Birdwell gets the stalker of the week, if so.
Stalker of the week.
Something else happened to Easter morning.
This end up not being super climactic,
but we're just sitting there having a nice,
just time in the Coop's house,
and we see that the sheriff pulls into their driveway.
So we're kind of like,
that's probably not good.
He's either delivering a casserole or, yeah,
getting ready to arrest somebody.
And sheriff pulls in,
and we're kind of like watching him for the window.
Like, where is he going?
Is he coming to the door?
He, like, drives to one of the barns,
just picks up one of, like, Steve's just, like, hired hands.
And then he just, like, gets in the car and drives off again.
We're like, what was that?
Why do you get in the front seat?
It's going on with the sheriff.
And then, like, five minutes later,
sheriff comes back again and, like, drops off the hired hand.
I was like, ah, wrong guy with Steve, we need you.
So he's like, what do you need to me for?
And it turns out he had left his, you know,
one of his farm vehicles in a field,
and because it had rained,
they were worried about it flooding.
And Steve was kind of like,
oh, yeah, yeah, I'll take care of that.
And then afterwards, you know, he's like,
they always overreact.
The car was fine.
Sheriff's not a farmer, you know?
Yeah, I think that's what it is.
He's like, he's fine, barely touching the bumper.
Oh, that's funny.
Yeah, there was like, I mean, I was like filming it.
It was like, this is hilarious.
Like, we're getting visited by the sheriff on Easter.
Like, what's going to happen?
And then it was like, no.
That's not the thing.
All right.
Hey, cozy earth's really comfortable.
I don't know if you heard.
Yeah.
I'm wearing their pants.
Without planning it, I'm always wearing cozy earth.
Dang it.
I want to be cozy.
I'm not right now.
It's fine.
I'll do it.
And do I look uptight?
Do I look bunched?
Because I am.
I'm not comfortable at all.
Bunched.
I'm bunched in all the wrong places right now because I don't have cozy earth on.
I learned that Rachel's family uses the term bunged.
I think they made it up.
I don't know, bunged up if you're constipated.
Yeah, I've never heard that one.
one.
Do you think of like plunge?
I don't know.
Bunger.
They might have made it up.
It might be a real word, but that's kind of what I thought.
Do I look bunched up right now?
I haven't had prune juice in a minute.
I feel bunched up because I don't have cozier in my body in my system.
I'm bunched up.
Listen, man.
I'm all bunched up on Mountain Dew.

Sheriff is just looking out for people, though, it sounds like.
He was. Yeah, you're just looking out.
I don't know if there's a cooler word in the English dictionary than Sheriff.
Sheriff. Sheriff's a cool word, dude.
Sheriff.
No one's embarrassed to be associated with a sheriff.
Am I right?
I think you're right.
Like that's one of those words that stood the test of time in America.
Do you think it's weird that Peyton Manning is nicknamed the sheriff, but no one's ever called
him that?
You know what I'm saying?
Well, what do you mean?
I don't know exactly what you're saying.
Every now and then I'll see it show up in like print form or something.
Like I'll see it on, I don't even know where I'll see it, but it'll be like, Peyton
Manning, or Peyton, the Sheriff Manning.
I feel like I've heard it.
And I've seen that enough times where I'm like, okay, that is.
Yeah.
His nickname.
But not like colloquially.
Like no one is calling him that.
No one is saying like, yeah.
Sheriff.
Bradie versus the sheriff.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's fair.
There's a lot of nicknames like that.
Like,
well,
maybe,
I don't know.
Like Dwayne Wade's nickname the Flash.
I don't feel like people say that that often.
That's a good example.
And this is why.
Black Mamba even was like,
like,
like don't,
not everyone needs a nickname just because they're good at something.
That's why I think pickleball is so dorky right now
because all these pro players have all these,
idiotic nicknames if they're calling them instead of their names. I'm like, we don't call,
I mean, Patrick Mahomes doesn't even have a nickname. Tom Brady, what do you call him? It's like,
just let them be. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like, if anything, like, just, like Tyson McGuffin could just be
T-Mac, which I know that's like already like a basketball player's name. But like, it just,
like Tracy McGrady was one of the coolest basketball players ever. And his nickname was just
T-Mack. Alan Iverson was cool. He was AI. I mean, they call him the answer, but it's like
AI is cool too. Yeah. Kobe is Kobe.
If you're number 85, just go by Ocho Senko.
It's easy.
Like the best ones are the ones that don't seem forced.
Yeah.
And in Pick of all, they're forcing it.
Give us a few.
Flick Wizard.
What do you think that?
That's probably the worst.
I start with the worst one, probably.
Who is it?
His name is J.W.
That's his name.
Yeah.
So Pittsburgh, Kansas.
Dang it.
Pittsburgh, Kansas, dude.
Southeast Kansas is a different type of Kansas than the rest of Kansas.
I'll just say that.
I was at a tournament.
And they were saying like inhaling from Pittsburgh, Kansas originally,
JW and Georgia Johnson, it's brother's sister duo.
I was like, did you know they're from Pittsburgh, Kansas?
He goes, no, they look like they're from Pittsburgh.
Yeah, dude, it's interesting.
I mean, this is paint with a real broad brush.
But I feel like most of Kansas is like farmers,
but like just good people farmers.
And then there's like southeast Kansas that's like,
redneck like a little more like just like trashy I don't know just like and once again
broad brush but like yeah brush yeah yeah time it goes to Fort Scott every other day it feels
like oh he midges he would he would know yeah I don't know there's just something different down
there yeah it's really pretty down there though compared oh it's pretty yeah it's just so close to
Missouri that's what it is it just gets closer to that like Joplin casino it's more and more redneck
Kind of. Honestly, that Joplin area of Kansas.
It'd be it. Anyway, Flick wizard.
Flick wizard's from Kansas.
The wizard originally.
Hey, wizard.
It's called the wizard. The wizard's cool.
The whiz.
Like, don't say flick wizard.
Yeah, it's a really bad name.
And the commentators are calling him that, like, instead of his name, just like way too often.
Oh.
Just way too often.
That's tough.
Yeah.
That's rough.
What else?
What's it call you?
They call me little ginger sprout.
I don't love.
Well, I would just say G Sprout.
That's too many syllables.
Here comes G Sprout.
Oh, what an ATP by G Sprout.
Something like that.
For some reason, the other one coming to mine right now is his sister.
I don't know how she got this nickname.
And you're going to say, is that a nickname?
I'm going to say yes, because they say it constantly.
They call her Georgia freaking Johnson.
Like they say the word freaking.
Okay.
And they just say it all the time.
I don't know why.
Like even like in not exciting times.
Like I'm here with Flick Wizard and Georgia Freaking Johnson.
They might.
They might.
Yeah.
Really?
It sounds like somebody told them like, hey, in order to make it far in this game.
Crank up the nickname.
You got to have a nickname.
It's got to be memorable.
Yeah.
I don't know.
People call me G.F. Johnson sometimes.
What's this guy named?
J.W.
J.W.
Yeah.
So that one's too bad, too.
I just feel like it's like freaking.
It's just not, I don't like how it sounds.
Yeah.
Six foot six from North Carolina.
Michael freaking Jordan.
This wouldn't fly in other sports.
It just looks bad, I think.
Not as like a permanent thing.
Like you can get excited about something.
Yeah, you say it once when you're pumped.
You're right.
Georgia freaking Johnson.
All right.
Pittsburgh, Kansas.
I'm trying what some of these other ones are.
Did Ben Johns have one?
Tyson McGoffin?
There is one guy,
there's a guy named Connor.
This is actually the guy that Isaac's got to be living with.
We call him Garnett.
That's his last name.
Go ahead.
Ask the Picklewell guys.
Good job.
I know, I know, Rachel Roarbocker.
I'm a Roar.
Yeah.
I'm a Roar guy.
Yeah.
I'm a Katie Perry,
Katie Perry Roar fan.
Yeah.
he's awesome guy
people call him
Tooie Nation
I hate even saying any of this
No it's great
This is perfect
Twoy what twoies like
When you put it in between people
Is that right?
Wait
They call him
Twoey Nation
Yeah
What's a twoy
Twoes a thing
It's like a
Two-handed backhand
Putting your left hand on the paddle
To hit it two-handed backhand
And he's the best at it
I guess
He's the whole nation
He's the whole nation
He's the whole nation.
Now, there could be other nations.
He's not Tooie World.
He's not Tooie Universe.
Two a universe has a little bit of ring to it.
He's just the nation.
Twoiverse.
Tuviverse.
Yeah.
You got to shorten that thing.
Tui nation is too many.
You gotta go two nation.
Oh, man.
Okay.
Tyson McGuffin doesn't have one, though.
That's a good one, though.
Last name is just McGuffin.
That's a good name.
That's sweet.
Yeah.
You know, Barstall Sports put out that article about him a year or two ago,
calling him like the most electric man in sports.
So unfortunately that gets tagged along with him.
And the most electric man in all of sports, Tyson McGuffin,
it's like, I bet they were joking when they wrote that article.
Let's not like cling to this.
Like it's like, it's Bible.
Like I feel like we know that's not true, right?
So Mr.
Electricity.
Tyson, ACDC, McGuffin.
Yeah.
Goodbye.
Nikola Tesla and Thomas Edison.
Okay.
I'm going to text Scott and Isaac right now.
Like, hey, what nicknames am I missing?
Brad and I are trying to make fun of him.
Yeah, that's good.
Huh.
That's pretty fun.
Yeah, I don't know.
I just think nicknames,
nicknames need to be organic.
They're never going to be like,
like was Flick Wizard,
were that many people really calling him that?
I doubt it.
No.
He had to post that somehow himself or something.
Like,
like, I really liked,
Patrick Mahomes is from White House,
Texas. And I love the idea of calling him the president because he's from White House.
But it didn't, no one else. It didn't stick. It didn't stick. Not yet anyway. But how cool
that be? Like the White House. What about the white, white, white night? White knight. White whale.
Power. Yeah. Just say if you're not white, you're not right. Something like that.
But showtime, I feel like it is called, they do call him showtime. Oh, that's right. That is kind of fun.
Yeah. But even that's,
not like Showtime versus the sheriff, you know.
I don't know.
Scott came back with one.
There's a guy named Jay DeVilleier.
I've heard of him.
You guys did a video.
Yeah.
He's a Wichita guy.
They call him, well, he's also a French guy.
So they call him the flying Frenchman.
Like, it just sounds like a superhero.
There was a basketball player.
That's a circus act.
He sounds like he gets shot from a.
Canaan. Do you know who the flying Dutchman is? No. I think it was a debt lift shrimp. Remember him?
Oh, yeah, from Parks and Rec. Yeah. And also from the NBA. Oh, from Parks and Rec.
True. Okay, flying Frenchmen.
Wow, a lot of Kansas representing, that's when you know that the athletes aren't super like high, you know, high caliber.
If they're professionals from Kansas. Like, we have like one and every other, like, we have Barry
Sanders was our football guy. That's.
the only Kansas, like, they're in Sprouls, I guess, but like, not very many.
Barry Sanders, one of the best running backs of all time.
What was his nickname?
Barry.
Yeah.
I don't know.
That's a good question.
Does he have a nickname?
No, I don't think so.
Most players don't.
And even if they do, it's like, like, I bet if you looked up Wikipedia,
Barry Sanders nickname, there would be one.
It's like, I never heard that.
In middle school, he was called squirt.
His aunt and uncle still do.
Have I told you how I want to call Henry Tank?
Yeah.
Yeah.
I like that.
But even that.
that's not really like super organic right now.
And so I'm like, it might not happen.
But only one more that they could think of right now.
A lot of this is unusable.
But a guy named Hayden.
That is Grininin.
Nice.
Get on my level, timing.
I thought I just quiz you on pro players.
I don't know that.
I'm a fan of Friday, bro.
We've made videos with them, I guess.
But still.
People call him Big H.
Okay.
That one's not as bad.
That one's not as bad.
It's a little more normal.
It sounds like your little brother or something.
Is he big?
No.
What about that one guy back in the day?
It's called me a huge guy tiny.
We're calling him like, I feel like his name was like, he had a weird name and he looked,
he had the body type of me and he was a professional pickleball player.
Is he still doing it?
Oh.
You don't talk about like curling or something.
He had a weird name.
It wasn't curling.
Sorry, I shouldn't have said that.
Now you're going to be off.
He had the body type of you and he was a pro player.
He was better body than me, but not much.
okay like and he was kind of a blonde like he signed with franklin way back in the day i remember
like oh i know you're talking about what was that guy's name yeah dude i he no one's like seen him
or i like i don't think he was ever actually a pro i think he like started i know you're talking about
what aspen aspen aspen cern that was his name okay curlin yeah good job yeah i can't believe i
even pull that name out yeah i don't know what he does all right i've never seen him yeah i've never
see him
compete.
Yeah.
I don't know if he's alive.
Too much black mold.
Huh.
Aspen.
Yeah,
I just remember seeing him be like,
that guy's a professional pickleball player.
Yeah.
Apparently he was,
like pre-COVID,
maybe,
when the laborers were few.
He was a pro player.
Arvice was not plenty.
I don't know what happened to him.
Anyway,
that's the sheriff.
That's been sheriff.
Sheriff talk.
But yeah,
everything else was good in Iowa.
I think grown.
I feel like it gets closer to me.
What if?
Yeah, Iowa was great.
You know, we drove back down to Kansas City on Easter, like that afternoon and
evening.
Typically, we would stop to charge about halfway into more and get some poncheros, which
is like the Iowa, Chipotle.
It's so good.
You know, maybe other options.
Well, it's Easter.
Everything is closed.
I mean, fast food places are closed.
We're like, what are going to do for dinner?
One spot open.
When we're trying to, like, make it home fast, Rachel's got working.
in the morning, Texas Roadhouse.
So on Easter, we stopped. We got Texas to go.
Okay.
Went in the little side door, picked up a little
herbal, herb,
fried chicken or something. I forgot what I got.
Super easy to go food. Oh, yeah, plastic fork,
eating it while I'm driving. Like breaking the fork.
Yeah, I'm just like chopping on it like a tiger.
You get like another styrofoam box of just peanuts?
Did they give you some rolls to go?
Yeah, we'd have a lot of rolls.
Good.
Yeah.
A lot of rolls.
But I'm not buttering that thing while I'm driving.
So just straight roll.
Oh, bummer, dude.
That's what the wife is for.
Or the passenger.
I'm not saying it has to be one or the other.
But sometimes with Cathar, I'll be like,
hey, I need you to put this, like, sauce on my chick-flake thing.
I have a tough time delegating in marriage.
I have no problem.
I really encourage other people to do it in business.
But in marriage, I have a tough time.
Like, I think you get married at 31.
I've been independent for so long
that it's still a hard habit to break
where I want to do everything on my own.
You want that butter.
You know you want that butter, dude.
This should be like marriage, pre-maral counseling.
Listen, dude.
What's your favorite thing at Texas Roadhouse?
Oh, the rolls, of course.
And you're going to want that butter
for the rest of your life.
You're going to be, yeah, you're serving her,
she's serving you.
Like, I don't know.
You're right.
I have a hard time.
I think in general, people have a hard time
letting people serve them, you know, like,
or like,
but it's like, oh man, I need that butter.
Last night, Rachel, like, warmed something up for me.
And this happens probably once every two weeks.
We're like, she does something.
And I, like, thank her, like, three times.
And she's like, I promise it's the bare minimum.
Like you.
We have a quick, a quick warm is just the one button 30 seconds.
It's great.
Well, thanks for cleaning out my plate.
I promise it's the bare minimum.
Still, that's so nice.
That's funny.
That's great.
Yeah, rolls were still good.
Texas Roadhouse still good.
Yeah, that's a tough one though if you're like, like, well, all fast food.
But I feel like that's going to make you tired.
Like that's going to get you a little bit, you know, too full if you, well, then again,
if you're struggling to eat it, maybe it's not going to get you too full.
Yeah.
You're kind of chew on this thing.
Eat my mashed potatoes just out of the bowl.
Mashed potatoes.
Yeah, you didn't go french fries.
You're like, no, we need the potatoes.
Yeah, I want potatoes and something else.
But anyway, great meal.
I guess you got the Tesla, the self-driving thing.
So it's a little bit easier, but not too bad.
That's good.
All right.
Hey, good ranchers is back.
Good ranchers is here.

Question from good ranchers.
They,
they emphasize,
um,
time around the table,
right?
They,
they emphasize,
you know,
yeah,
good meat getting delivered to your door.
That meat getting cooked up.
That meat being eaten around the dinner table together as a family.
Uh,
if you could have any wild animal as a pet,
which would you choose?
that's what says on here
monkey animal
monk smaller though
small monkey
or maybe I don't know
I really want to domesticate a big cat
yeah
would you be nervous always though
yes me too
yeah there's no time in my life
where I think I know that thing it's not gonna
I might just choose golden retriever actually for this answer
wild animal yeah
I don't know, I found it on a farm.
Okay, fair.
Tyne, what about you?
He's not listening.
He's bunched up.
You're all bunched.
Sorry, I'm working through my bunch.
Wild animal?
If I was one?
Yeah.
If you were a wild animal, what would you be?
It's unexpected, but elephant?
Elephant.
You would have an elephant in your house.
That would be my pet.
All right.
Fine.
Prince Ali over here here to tell you about good ranchers.com.
I'll tell you this thing.
Prince Ali is not delivering his meat to America via Good Ranchers.
No.

prince harry
sonna from tucson
uh i had a few
maybe i'll wait for wednesday to talk about
those things my dad was in africa this past week
oh we can have yeah
but because he
he like befriended this kid
who was uh in like a foreign exchange student here in america
and this kid was getting married in africa and invited my
dad to go to his wedding. And my dad, of course, it's like, yeah, I'll go. Of course I'll go. Uh, and so he went to
Malawi, Africa. Yeah. And don't know much about Malawi. He's been there before. My dad's been there
before on missions trips and stuff, but... Had friends go there for mission trips. Really? Yeah. Um,
it's safe. And he did not get his luggage for like five days. Really? And he had a, he was like,
and so, I don't know, this is where I'm like, I don't want to make fun of my dad too much, but I
I'd at least talk about this a little bit.
So he didn't buy any clothes.
He just kept wearing the same clothes he had for like five days.
Like, dad, they got clothes in Africa, surely.
This is an excuse to like shop local.
Get some.
Buy some cool, like, yeah, something.
I want you looking like Rafiki by day four.
And maybe I don't know.
Have a stick over your head.
I think eventually, like my mom, this is like just my parents, I think to an extent.
My mom realized like, oh, insurance, like traveler, we have something.
kind of insurance is going to be able to cover this.
It's like their fault that you lost your bags.
So you can buy some clothes and they'll pay you back.
And then I think my dad was like, okay, I can do that.
Oh, all right.
But I'm like, dad, you could have just spent, you know, a little bit of money.
Out of pocket.
Yeah.
Get a pair of boxes.
Yeah.
So I need to hear more about it.
But I think they got like literally at like 11 p.m.
The night before the wedding, his luggage arrived.
And so he had a suit for the wedding.
But I'm like, he would have had to wear like his like Oklahoma
Joe's shirt or whatever he was in. I don't know what he was wearing, but
geez, four or five days, same t-shirt.
Classic. This is also my dad. And maybe this isn't my dad.
This is his generation. Maybe this is my parents. Maybe it's just not me.
But he, they flew from Kansas City and New York the day before. And then they were flying
from New York to Africa, wherever along the way. I'm not sure where they stopped.
But maybe they went straight there. But you know, they hear all this TSA stuff.
Like, you know, because in Kansas City, I guess it's not a federal TSA, but then other places
is like New York, it is.
So my dad's like, so I mean, I think their flight was at 3 p.m.
I'm not trying to exaggerate dad.
So correct me.
I think they got there at like 6.30 or something.
Like, no.
I think he was like, I was hoping you would say 10 a.m.
And I was like, that's quite a bad.
He was like, I hear that these lines are just really long and I can't miss it.
And I told Catherine, I was like, it's going to be so fast.
It's going to be so overblown.
And I think my dad, I need to look at what he said.
But I genuinely think it was like,
it took us three minutes to get through TSA.
Let me, let me see, maybe I'm wrong about some of these details.
He got there nine hours early, eight and a half hours early.
Insane, dude.
But they're seeing all the stuff on the news of like, look, it's back, you know,
back to the parking lot or, you know, all these lines.
The fear mongering has a lot of unfortunate results.
630 is incredible.
Okay, okay, okay, okay.
I might have been way over that's ready.
According to him, he said, five minute wait.
at TSA line today.
Praise God.
We now have two hours before our flight leaves.
So maybe he didn't get there that much earlier.
Or maybe he texted me at 948.
But maybe he got there earlier than that.
I bet he didn't text me right away.
So he got there at least by like 9, 9.30.
At least, yeah.
That's still incredible.
Do you know what his flight path was?
Did he go through the Middle East to get to Malawi?
I do not know.
I have not.
We're looking at our Malaysia flights.
and it's kind of like same or like same price,
but a little shorter to go east instead of west.
It's like, and you have a quick layover in Jordan.
And I was like, all in for it.
And I think everyone else is like,
maybe let's not go to the Middle East right now.
Oh, really?
We're in a United plane.
Dude, Trump would get you out of that thing.
And send some crazy video when he did it.
Yeah, also.
The eagle swooping down and pretty unaware of everything is going on.
So I didn't know.
Maybe it actually is dangerous to go through the Middle East right now.
Maybe I shouldn't.
I think the Middle East is always a little bit dangerous probably to go through.
Yeah, it's at its baseline.
What's in Ward Dogs? It's like...
Triangle of Death.
You seen that movie, Simon?
Yeah. I can't remember it very well, but we watched it...
Where was that? Texas and the hotel?
It was forced you to watch it somewhere.
That's pretty funny.
Pretty good.
Yeah, the night before the Founding Father's Tournament, I think.
Did you watch it?
Anyway, miss dad at Easter, but he was in Malawi hanging out.
That's pretty cool.
Yeah, really cool.
He's fun.
He's just like, and I feel like, yeah, my dad's always like, yeah, you know, you
know, I'm going to Africa?
Yeah, you know, I'm going to India.
You know, I'm going to Washington.
I was like, all right.
And he doesn't mind those long flights.
I guess not.
What's he up to?
Good question.
He likes to read.
Maybe my mom downloaded him some stuff.
but there's no way he downloaded himself.
Like, you know, maybe.
Neck pillow?
I doubt it, dude.
He's just kind of like a, he's just kind of the guy that's like, I'll just do it.
Simple, yeah.
I'm fine.
Yeah, I think he's just got, he's got a lot of mental strength with that kind of stuff.
Like, I don't know.
It's fine.
That's a, it's a great.
I'm a little uncomfortable, but I'm not.
Quality.
Yeah, whatever.
So, you just keep going.
So, anyway, fun times with hearing about that a little bit.
Yeah, you know, I'm going to Africa.
Let's see.
Great.
I'm going to put my review of the week if you guys want to talk about stuff like that.
Sure.
If you guys figure it on to.
Okay.
Okay.
Okay.
All right.
Okay.
All right.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Okay.
I'm going to do mine.
Go ahead.
I don't know.
Ashley Rahm, five-star review two days ago.
It's the Office of Podcasts.
What a compliment right off the gate.
Thank you.
Thank you.
I love this podcast.
I just finished listening all the way through for the fourth time.

Wow.
That's cool.
As I listed through, I look forward to specific episodes and segments.
Puddle City, Jake and Rachel's Wedding, Catherine's Kicks, substitute cusswords,
Timon's Arrival, Bad Catchphrase, and Steve's Crawling.
I could go on and on. I even look forward to hearing my favorite ad reads. I quote specific phrases from the podcast just like I do the office. I have the laughing till I have laughed till I cried multiple times while listening. Ghostrunners is part of my daily life and I am so grateful for it. Whenever I need a break from the craziness of the world, ghost runners is there. It got me through the last bit of college, my first adult job and having my first baby. Thank you, Jake, Brad, and Timon for being such wonderful men and being lights for the Lord. I hope to thank you in person someday. Ashley in Idaho.

I've listened that thing 25 times.

That was great.
Thanks.
Yeah, that's got to happen.
I'm going to go and put a request for next week.
Speaking of songs, my dad will like, I'll fly away.
Oh, yeah.
He's got to like that.
That's, I'll bring the guitar.
Oh, my God.
Yeah.
What a great song.
Well, let's do a little bluegrass, yeah.
Oh, I'll do a little, yeah, Southern Gospel.
That's fun.
Thanks for singing time.
Good stuff.
You're welcome.
People aren't going to like it, but I liked it.
No one's going to like that at all.
Gocey's going to lose it, but...
Yeah.
I liked it.
I'm happy for you.
All right.
Come to the getaway, we still got some spots.
Yeah.
I bet we got seven.
I'm not going to do that.
I bet we got seven or eight rooms.
I'm not sure exactly how many.
Yeah, six or eight.
Six to eight rooms available.
Between the three sessions.
We have three sessions, yeah.
So.
Oh, someone did email us that they.
Nope.
Not going to happen.
Whatever they said.
Okay.
You're done.
Nope.
I got to stop you right there.
What, somebody can't come.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I think they thought the deposit was the full amount.
Okay, fair.
The deposit is for a deposit.
Yeah, the price on there is not the full amount.
That's fair.
That's fair.
That's happened a few times before.
You're not the only one.
You're one of the only ones, but you're not the only.
There was a blind girl who also fell under that trap two years ago.
Yeah, we forgot to transcribe it in the rail for her.
Just kidding, dude.
She wouldn't have liked the beach that much anyway.
Yeah.
So, all right, love you guys.
We'll see you a Wednesday.
