Starting point is 00:00:00 Got a text today, Brad. Congrats. Yes, actually got several. Not to start off the podcast kind of braggy, but one of them was from our friend, my landlord, Peter Casey. Love him. He said, opportunity of a lifetime coming your way. Which Peter always has these kind of things coming.
Starting point is 00:00:15 Yeah. I'm thinking he's changed his mind. We can have dogs. He's going to bring over a golden retriever. Oh, yeah. That's what opportunity of a lifetime means to me. So I say, I'm excited. What is it? He says, how would you like to have a garage sale with my stuff in your front yard?
Starting point is 00:00:31 Oh, you're kidding. Oh, Peter. That's so kind of him. Oh, I can't wait. I mean, just to see him. I mean, he's going to make literally dozens of dollars. Yeah. Hear me out. Like we might make like 1850 off this.18 and 50 cents. Yeah. So opportunity of lifetime coming my way. Um, adding to my 14 million net worth. Can't wait to buy the, yeah.

Hey!
Starting point is 00:01:26 With Jake and Brad, Ghost Runners Podcast, Ghost Runners Podcast. Every Monday morning with Jake and Brad, the Ghost Runners Podcast. Hey! With Jake and Brad. Hey, hey, we did it. That's a good song. That's a good way to start the podcast. Yeehaw!
Starting point is 00:01:46 Guys, we got a special treat for you this is episode 63 uh the highlight of my week oh i had a lot of that was a weird sound in my throat got some flim highlight yeah i guess highlight the mile yeah the uh one of the highlights of my week um is a story that happened to me a few nights ago at a game night and then it dawned on me is like what's better than me telling brad this story than having uh roommate greg his lady jj who happened to be here they've been previously titled as relationship goals on this podcast hashtag goals julie davis knows and anyway uh i was just about to tell the story i was like they just should help me tell the story so uh come on in, guys. A YouTube version is going to get to see them first. Come on in.
Starting point is 00:02:27 Here they are. Introduce yourselves. We don't exactly have chairs for you. That's fine. That's fine. Greg's still taller. I'm just right there. Okay, so everyone, this is Julianne, Jolene.
Starting point is 00:02:39 Joelle. Dang it. Much better. Okay. I call her JJ. Awesome. You sound good. I sound good? Yeah, nice tenor. And this is Okay. I just, I call her JJ. Awesome. You sound good. I sound good?
Starting point is 00:02:45 Yeah. Nice tenor. And this is roommate Greg. Hello, everybody. Okay. Greg here. Yep. See, I told you guys.
Starting point is 00:02:52 Okay. So there we are. It is Saturday night. Saturday night. Saturday night. Game night has concluded for the most part, but some of us are still hanging around. We're at JJ's place. There's a crew. What kind of games were you playing?
Starting point is 00:03:08 Here's the thing, though. The games, they were a little lackluster. Subpar. Oh, I didn't know you guys. We're going catchphrase, apples to A's. What are we doing? This is my first time learning. You guys thought the games were subpar.
Starting point is 00:03:18 Well, you were having all the fun being the mafia. That's true. You killed me third round. So to me, it's just like... Fourth round. Fourth round, fourth round sorry fourth round i killed both of them yeah okay that's a good point we played roommates but fishbowl mafia uh psychiatrist the staples yeah kind of uh but it's hard to find a game for like 20 people anyway okay so there's like a good group of us who all know each other and then there's a group of about five people who are here from out of town. Most of those are made up of gentlemen, okay?
Starting point is 00:03:50 There's a certain girl in our friend group, obviously not going to say her name, but she's in the mix. So all those other guys leave. We're down to about six to eight of us still in the house, and we're all in the kitchen. Tiny. JJ, yeah, I was going to, JJ, I'm sorry, the kitchen's not that big. That's something you don't ever talk about with women.
Starting point is 00:04:10 You don't ever ask about their kitchen size. Yes, that's right. Where the people gather. A lot of us were gathered in the kitchen. So I really do, I want you to paint the scene of like there's six of us. Small kitchen. Yeah, eight of us.
Starting point is 00:04:23 Some people were thinking maybe the game night is concluding with sardines right now. Yeah, it's like, oh, someone's looking for us. We're all here. Okay, so it's very tiny. These guys left at least five minutes ago. Five to ten minutes ago. Five to ten minutes ago. We think they are gone.
Starting point is 00:04:37 Might never see them again because they live so far away. Never seen them before. One of them makes his way back to uh inside the house did he forget something kind of he goes into the center of our group yeah very center very yeah it's dead center i'm imagining like at a wedding like you know when you have a dance circle and one person goes in the middle it's like what's this guy doing worse worse because everybody's like so congested but this girl that's in the middle is just like very apparently in the middle everybody's eyes are already on her so it's just set up for disaster yeah she's already in the middle dancing and then someone else decides to come and you know
Starting point is 00:05:13 yeah do a little dance of his own so he comes in and at this point i have i think i was talking and i stopped so i'm like what's going on here you know so it's getting very quiet in this room record scratch and then he just goes I'll say it a little louder than he did because I want you to be able to hear it on the microphone but he says you pretend to yell a little bit when you say it what do you mean I just imagine it'd be funnier okay okay so he's like hey I was thinking I could get your number but I mean he really does whisper it and i just involuntarily go oh mouth wide open wide open jakes i don't see he didn't know what to do i don't see this guy ask
Starting point is 00:05:54 her at all i don't see what is transpiring i see him go up to her cheek basically i think he's kissing her on the cheek they were close i know They were so close. Yes. Like that close to her cheek. And next thing I know, I see Jake's face just mouth wide. Just wide open. Just drops. Jake did not recover well. A girl there. One of our friends tried to keep the conversation
Starting point is 00:06:20 flowing. She said afterwards, she's like, I kind of saw what was happening, so I tried to talk and cover it up. Conversation flowing with you. With Jake. No,, I kind of saw what was happening. So I tried to, you know, talk and cover it up. Conversation flowing with you. With Jay. No, just in a room. With the rest of the group. This girl.
Starting point is 00:06:30 Yeah, like she's like, oh, this is awkward for them. So Jake, what were you saying about like the whatever you had? And I'm like, I'm not hearing this at all. I'm seeing Romeo and Juliet. And I'm like, oh, oh, wow. These are the audible noises that are coming out of Jay's mouth. Oh, wow. I just could not believe.
Starting point is 00:06:47 I mean, what, like two episodes ago, we talked about guys asking girls out amongst their friends. Yeah, in a public setting. And this is like intimate kitchen. This dude just met her. We're all in here. There's so many other ways you could have done that. Like call her to the other room or just like, hey, come here.
Starting point is 00:07:02 Come here. Right here. Let's date. It was a power move. I applaud him for it. You do applaud him. Do you? I applaud him for it.
Starting point is 00:07:16 So tell me what you mean by applaud him for it. Because I am imagining, JJ, if you were single and you were standing in that position... I would be a little embarrassed. I'll say it. So why are you applauding for it? I don't agree with you. But he must have been interested enough to go back in. But can we pause for a second and go back to the fact
Starting point is 00:07:34 that he left the house for five to ten minutes? He was probably a little nervous. Very, very nervous. And I applaud him for getting over that hump of nervousness, but, like, wow. I just envision him outside literally like pumping his chest like trying to like I can do it yeah I'm gonna go in there and I'm gonna whisper so softly into her ear and everyone's gonna still hear me ask her for her number in the middle of everyone I could do this real
Starting point is 00:08:01 talk though like anytime you're in a group setting and you hear somebody whisper it's worse oh yeah it's like just talk in a normal voice like sometimes I do it with Catherine I'll be like yeah so this person behind me yeah he dressed pretty weird huh she's like what you doing it's like as long as I'm not like being too loud like or being too quiet they won't notice but yeah the moment you whisper everyone's like what's going on over there I don't want to talk right here anymore yeah he was in inner business and just straight astro. It was awesome. I went to bed thinking about it. I was just like, that was just so awesome that I got to see
Starting point is 00:08:30 that in real life. Jake did a really good job giving the person crap afterwards. That's all I will say. Giving the guy crap? No. The girl. I probably could have done a better job of being a little more if my roommates
Starting point is 00:08:45 are listening you guys are the best i like you a lot this is no indication of how i feel about you she means it too probably she's okay okay she's not being forced to be here though i have a question jj for for a girl in the room you're the only one so thank you it's going to you um in that situation so like part of me is like oh props to him for a girl in the room. You're the only one. So it's going to you, um, in that situation. So like part of me is like, Oh, props to him for like asking in person rather than texting. But then I'm like, as a girl, does it really matter if you get asked in person or a text to like an initial, like first date? Like, obviously like, Hey, if you want to get married, like ask him in person, but like, you know, like maybe, maybe it's okay. Like to just ask that in person but like you know like maybe maybe it's okay like to just ask that
Starting point is 00:09:25 first date like hey we just saw each other i just left so i'm not gonna come back and ask in person this is what i will say my perspective when you're asking for the number no big if you want to slide into the dms if you want to get it from someone else yeah no big deal okay first date i would say you have to ask greg did you did you in person you're saying in person did you ask in person uh i don't know if they've been on their first date yet so this is actually like helpful this is a little awkward hey would you would you go out with me wow that's have you ever had someone ask someone else out on the podcast not Not really. No, not really. Not exactly, no. Not in those words. Not like that. Yeah, I'll go out with you.
Starting point is 00:10:09 Cool. Wow. Day made. Okay. Well, thank you guys for joining the podcast. You guys are free to go have dinner. We're going on a date now. I'm sweating. Can I bring up one other? Have we ever told the story about Greg in the quick leave? The Irish goodbye? Yeah. Oh, of course. Okay, okay. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:10:25 I just wanted to give him a hard time. You can still give him crap. Goodness. I mean, he might just be gone right now. He wouldn't even know. That's the thing. You never know. Greg just leaves.
Starting point is 00:10:36 There he goes. You never know with that guy, man. Seriously, thank you guys for being on the podcast. That was fun. Yeah. Just figured they were there. They could help supplement some of the details. JJ and Greg. It was crazy.
Starting point is 00:10:49 I just couldn't believe that I got to see that in real life. Hey, can I get your number? Oh! Can I have it? Can I have you? It reminded me of the scene in old school where Stifler's in that donkey stable. And Will Ferrell's like, can I see that tranquilizer gun? And he shoots himself in the neck
Starting point is 00:11:07 and Stifler's just like, yes, that's awesome. You know what I'm talking about? And then Will Ferrell's like, I like you, but you're crazy. You're crazy, man. You got a dart in your neck, man. Yes, that's awesome. You're crazy. You're crazy.
Starting point is 00:11:30 You're crazy. I like you. But you're crazy. That was me. I just drew so much attention to like, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow. Wait, Stifler is in old school? I thought that was American Pie. Is that both?
Starting point is 00:11:45 Is he in both? I don't know the actor's name, so I was just calling him Stifler because that's like a famous character. Oh, yeah. Three. He reminds me of Drew Severins randomly. Okay. Three name.
Starting point is 00:11:56 Sean William Scott, maybe? Okay. Let's say it. Sean William Scott. No way of knowing. We did get, or I got fact-checked quite a bit already in last week's episode. I saw that. City YouTube comments is already like three.
Starting point is 00:12:05 Kona's a city! Okay, it's the name of the airport, so easy to get confused. You know, the big island airport. I mean, tell me how many other airports are named after states, you know? Like, there's so many out there. You know, Kansas Airport. Montana Airport. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:20 That's fair. That's fair. Additionally, I guess last episode was really funny. We've got so many comments being like, haven't laughed this hard forever. Best episode ever. I was like, oh, I had no idea. Oh, I told her editor. He was like, you want any clips for Instagram?
Starting point is 00:12:33 And I was like, I can't even think. I don't even know. I was like, it was fine. It was OK. We're just so used to it, baby. We're numb. We're numb to the to the hilarity. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:42 I had no idea that it was so funny. But good job, Jake and Brad. Hey, thank you, Jake and Brad. Anyway, we got a big announcement. Before I forget about it, we finally got some Ghostrunners merchandise. Yes, we did. Yes. Did I say that weird?
Starting point is 00:12:57 Little Swedish boy. Yes, we did. We made pretty good merch for all of you. The merchandise is here. Good tidings and good cotton. it's a tri-blend yeah but we're super pumped we uh you know i think for the most part everything with ghost runners has been rolled out pretty slowly it took us like six months to make an instagram a year to get on youtube longer to get a patreon and so you know we want to do things right and i think we're doing the merch right it's super um high quality shirts uh they're they're very soft um and they're actually from
Starting point is 00:13:29 a company here in kansas city uh that i've worked with before you know the go exchange go x they have a super cool like i don't it's missional right yeah yeah they work with like the global orphan project where like part of their profits go um to orphans and i know they also have like super sustainable like um like the people who make the shirts are like in like i want to say a lot of them are in haiti and like yeah that's what i thought too it's just super like a micro business like ethically like done well anyway um and also another exciting part we let our patrons vote on our um website domain and they voted on ghostrunners.life all right it they voted on ghostrunners.life.
Starting point is 00:14:05 All right. It's pretty exciting. Ghostrunners.com was a hundred bucks. Not for us. I don't need it that bad. We're fine. We had a few options. Ghostrunners.dog could have been cool.
Starting point is 00:14:16 Ghostrunners.club is a maybe, but yeah. But ghostrunners.life, you can go there right now and buy yourself a t-shirt. I think we've got six different colors. They'll be on the screen. This whole part of the YouTube video. Actually, can we just have Justin, our YouTube editor, just like very subliminal message, like every, like maybe like, you know, a couple of minutes, just flash it on there, like for a half second. Great call. Yeah. Throw some t-shirt. Yeah. Great call. Great call. Um, yeah, check them out there. They're really soft, really cool design holes. I think, uh, really cool design. Four holes, I think. Top, two on the side, one underneath.
Starting point is 00:14:47 I'm pretty sure. Yep. It has a tag on it. Maybe. Maybe it's tagless. Either way, it's comfy. Definitely four holes, though. Definitely four holes.
Starting point is 00:14:56 We were not going to budge on that. We were like, we need four. Look, it's my first time doing merch, but one thing I do want, it's got to be very soft and four holes. Yep. I really did tell them that. They're like, what kind of shirt are you wanting? And I was like, honestly, I'd rather make less money and have like a soft shirt. So that was an actual email.
Starting point is 00:15:09 I can show you the receipts. I said that. Post it. They're 25 bucks a piece. And yeah, ghostrunners.life. Oh, one thing before I forget. You can only buy these for two weeks. Okay, so starting now until two Mondays from now.
Starting point is 00:15:22 That's the only time you can buy them. Then they're gone forever. Forever? That's the plan. That's the plan time you could buy them. Then they're gone forever. Forever? That's the plan. That's the plan. And then hopefully next month, there's a new design. So I would say. Also part of the plan.
Starting point is 00:15:31 I would say if you have aspirations for your mom, your grandma, your best friend, your aunt, your uncle, anybody to eventually listen to the podcast that's not listening right now, buy them a shirt now. Or even just future family members. Your cousin just started dating that guy. But he seems like it's pretty great yeah i could see him sticking around he whispered pretty quietly in her ear but you know like yeah like i think they could other than that and he wasn't wearing a shirt at the time so he could probably use a shirt absolutely yeah so yeah stock up is what we're saying stock up get something for christmas we'll shout out whoever buys the highest quantity next episode oh yeah we, we will. Oh, no doubt. No doubt. Uh, but yeah, super excited. Uh, I mean, one just to have our own website. It's cool. Ghostrunners.life and buy a t-shirt. And if anybody's curious,
Starting point is 00:16:13 GRKC stands for ghost runners, Kansas city. Oh yeah. That's what's on the shirt. It's cool. GRKC design. Um, but feel free to say it stands for something else. If you want, that'd be fun too. When people ask you. Yeah. Okay. No more storytelling. No more plugging. I'm done. Tell me about your week, baby. Okay.
Starting point is 00:16:29 I'll keep going. I've been saying baby a lot. Sorry. Baby's fine. I like it. I like calling people baby. Yeah. Especially on the podcast.
Starting point is 00:16:34 I don't do it in real life, I don't think. But on the podcast, I do. I like calling girls mama. I think it's funny. Draw me a map, mama. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:16:42 It's probably from the office. Well, draw me a map, mama. It's like subconsciously a little bit. But like, what's going on, mama? I think it's fun. Draw me a map, mama. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's probably from the office. Well, draw me a map, mama. It's like subconsciously a little bit, but like, what's going on, mama? I think it's fun. That is fun. It makes me think of like a really like comfortable woman. Like just somebody that you can like snuggle up in your GRKC shirt with and just like hang out.
Starting point is 00:16:57 You get a double XL because we offer those and you get in one of those holes. You're getting two of those holes together. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Snuggle up. Yeah. You're fine. You're fine. You're fine. Keep going.
Starting point is 00:17:07 I was going to say, oh, yeah, I like Mama because it's nice. It's easy. But you dropped the hard Y, Mommy. Now it's weird. Mommy is creepy. You don't want to drop the hard Y. Yeah, Mommy feels like the kid who's, yeah, like still a kid but 18 years old and like living at his parents' house and still like has like these weird issues socially.
Starting point is 00:17:26 Like, hey, mommy. What? Like, hey, mommy, have some SpaghettiOs. Yeah. You know what I mean? He says that. He has SpaghettiOs. He's a Chef Boyardee guy.
Starting point is 00:17:35 Yeah. A hundred percent. Yeah. Hey, mommy. Mommy, how long do I warm these SpaghettiOs up in the microwave for? Okay, thanks, mommy. Stuart, I told you. I don't know.

Came home, and Catherine's like, hey, will you get Hattie's? She was laughing and in this great mood which you know she's always in a great mood because she's married to me but especially this time i mean just a great move

Starting point is 00:18:48 little i don't know like it has a little ridge on there kind of but i did google one time how high can a mouse jump because when i lived in that studio apartment the only way i lived up on the the beauty of the beast uh stair ladder case you had the swinging ladder and i had a mouse problem then i was like can a mouse like jump up this ladder how good can they climb and yeah they can jump a little bit yeah yeah dude mice are not fun so tell me about yours i i'm a i'm a mouse killer i'll i'll take care of it yeah well we need help so okay saturday no friday night greg's gone isaac's gone it's just me oh jeez that's the worst time to have a mouse and the mice knew i think they had talked amongst themselves they knew i was alone they knew i was weak and helpless
Starting point is 00:19:28 and um i saw two in the living room in the living room living room they're so comfortable the audacity i know oh my gosh yeah a little stewart little and his friend um tiny not that quick of mice i think baby mice so really mama's around somewhere that's not good when they're baby like how many more are they reproducing over there that's a thing you never know with mice because you know what takes two to reproduce oh you got at least two over there plus the babes with mammals yeah dude i saw a headline on snapchat today and it was like snapchat has these hour stories that are just ridiculous i mean it's so clickbaity it's hilarious but one of them it says i'm asexual but my partner isn't like okay excuse what's going on there didn't click on it but it was enticing we're just speaking of it takes two to reproduce um okay so i saw two mice then we had a guy staying with us and so i was the next morning i was like hey fyi just saw some mice for the first time ever
Starting point is 00:20:23 in this house last night steven goes oh yeah i saw one in the bathroom this morning, I was like, hey, FYI, I just saw some mice for the first time ever in this house last night. Steven goes, oh, yeah, I saw one in the bathroom this morning while I was pooping. What? So vulnerable, Steven. Oh, yeah. He said, yeah, while I was sitting down, there was a mouse in your bathroom. I saw the hole he went up. I could show you. I was like, was it yours?
Starting point is 00:20:39 Yeah. Hello. And then late last night, it was 1250 a.m um i made eye contact with one i thought of you right yeah but the location was on the oven oh how did he get there he was on a pan yeah it's amazing how they get up to these crazy places man so i looked at him for a little bit i texted isaac i said just made eye contact with a mouse on the oven he runs i thought he was asleep i was just like he'll see this in the morning. He runs out in his boxers holding like a stick and he's like ready to hit it.
Starting point is 00:21:09 And then we made a trap that's probably already up on Patreon. Made a little video of that too. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. But woke up. We didn't have a bucket. So we'd use a paint can and that didn't work.
Starting point is 00:21:20 Oh, too small. I don't know. I don't know what the issue was. You're the mouse killer. Dude, I am. But both times I've used that bucket trick the first time it took until i left to go on vacation vacation for christmas um like so like a week and the second time it took over a week too so it's not like instant oh okay that makes me feel better i went and bought a bucket anyway we're gonna get
Starting point is 00:21:41 these suckers it's a great feeling like i've never gone hunting but i have killed some mice in my life and it must be equivalent because i just feel like the biggest man in the world like carrying that bucket out to my yard i'm out like hey whiskers come over here it's feeding time boy i don't know you're so cool because you're you're uh not declawed and you catch a mouse once a month i caught seven last night dude it was on vacation yeah oh man okay anyway i don't know how we got there from stewart i i uh random boy mommy oh yeah my friend in college used to call everyone ma he just went hey ma like that was like his way of like trying to pick people up something like girls or just anyone uh oh girls specifically oh hey ma hey ma cool what's up ma and girls or just anyone oh girls specifically oh hey ma hey ma
Starting point is 00:22:25 cool what's up ma and he was kind of like a sarcastic picking up but like yeah kind of flirtatiously
Starting point is 00:22:31 like hey ma I don't know probably kind of how you say mama for some reason I think of Esther Kim when you say hey mama okay
Starting point is 00:22:39 our friend Esther what have you been doing this week um not a whole lot. Hattie, we mentioned this on the Patreon live stream last night. Shout out to those who were on there. But we are trying once again to potty train Hattie.
Starting point is 00:22:54 Yes. And we had a successful day yesterday. Kind of by force, she peed. But today, a little bit less forceful, she peed. Twice. So we're getting on the right track. Whoa. Yeah. By force, she peed. But today, a little bit less forceful, she peed twice. So we're getting on the right track. Whoa. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:09 Both times, she apparently had to hug Catherine while she did it, which I just think is like, what if that's like, it's a funny image. Don't get used to it. Hey, babe, I need to go. And you're just hugging her while you go. Yeah. This feels good. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:23:24 There's a mouse in here. It's okay i don't know um yeah that's that's been a thing i guess i don't know it's been kind of a slow week for me um something that's kind of an odd thing though is my next door neighbor uh they have a teenage girl and she is permanently camping in a tent in their backyard. Now this is an update. Like, like she's like living, like she's living back there. Okay. We got a few options here.
Starting point is 00:23:52 She's been kicked out. Yeah. But she's not like going too far. Okay. Yeah. Do you think she, how many things does she have with her? Can you tell? And maybe I should clarify. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:24:02 I don't see her as much during the day out there, but every single night when'm like when it's dark out you can see her light like a headlamp or something it's like she's glamping basically like she's got like a extension cord running into the tent huh um the other day she was facetiming and playing a ukulele out there and talking about k-pop it sounds like this girl might be in your yard is that what you're saying practically I mean they're close they're it's a pretty, and we just have like a small little scalable fence. She was FaceTiming talking about K-pop. Yeah. You can hear her pretty well.
Starting point is 00:24:29 She was pretty loud, yeah. Whenever you're FaceTiming, your volume goes up about one and a half times. And I'd say three out of the three conversations I've had about K-pop, I've been a little louder than normal. Right? You just get like,
Starting point is 00:24:40 hey, Gangnam Style! I don't know, whatever. That's your go-to. That's all I know. I don't think that's k-pop it's not uh it's korean so yeah someone did show me k-pop mama esther mama uh showed me some k-pop songs the other day and they they got some slappers in there more than i thought really yeah they have some really good songs yeah i got into it one time because i i'm i'm embarrassed to
Starting point is 00:25:03 say but i thought it was a band at first. Oh, BTS though. Like, wow, K-pop is so popular. And so I was like, okay, I'll check out K-pop. So I looked at them on Spotify and yeah, it's a genre. It's a huge genre. Massive genre. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:17 Yeah, BTS. That's the big one, right? Yeah, they have like a cult following. They like single-handedly cancel people on Twitter. Oh, they were the ones that did the Donald Trump rally thing. Is that right? Oh, yeah. That was pretty crazy.
Starting point is 00:25:29 They had like a million RSVPs. Yeah, for the Tulsa rally. Yeah, they did that. Okay. They kind of started like that and TikTok. Gotcha. Are they also the ones, you might not know very much about them, so we can stop talking soon, but are they the ones that dance in slow motion, in very choreographed- Jabberwockies?
Starting point is 00:25:45 Yeah. I'm just kidding. I don't know. There's some, there's some K-pop group. I think they're K-pop, they're Asian. And they,
Starting point is 00:25:52 they like are very choreographed, moving like, shut up. I mean, you're doing a great job. Hey, Justin, just post our t-shirt real fast.
Starting point is 00:26:02 And then post this video of these, these people doing this thing. I don't know. I think it's a thing fact check me kona um it very well could be i've not seen those k-pop robot dancers but definitely could be okay i don't know anyway she is she's camping out there man suburbs and like is there ever a point i'm getting old and so i'm getting more offended by stupid things and i'm like is there ever a point where i have validity and being a little bit like hey this is my neighborhood why are you why are you putting a tent back there all the time i don't think you can say that yeah Yeah. I don't think I will, but is it ever valid to think that in my head? Cause like, I really don't care right now,
Starting point is 00:26:49 but I think if she did it for a year, I'd be like, okay, this is kind of trashy that this person has a tent up all the time or whatever. Yeah. It's kind of like, um, the, uh, like the Tootsie pop commercials. Like how many, how how many k-pops does it take to get into brad's head how many facetimes does it take yeah three in the morning no whatever i don't know and and k-pop it's really interesting because she's a high school girl so it could just be like i'm tired of you know being quarantined next to my parents all the time i'm just getting out of the house they're like great get out of the house we We don't care. I don't know. We want you out. Do you ever run away from home? No, I don't think so.
Starting point is 00:27:33 I had such a good relationship with my parents because I was so spoiled since I was the baby of the family. I think mommy. Yeah. Yeah. I had a mommy, a great mommy. I don't think so. Did you? No.
Starting point is 00:27:40 I think I've gotten a few arguments in marriage where I'm like, I'm leaving, you know, and I like go out. I like leave and go drive around. Where do you go? Just drive? Oh, I'm sure I go get food. It's been years. We used to have like really not unhealthy arguments, but just we didn't do a good job of getting through them very quickly. And they were always about stupidest things, like just prideful things.
Starting point is 00:28:03 And we haven't gotten into any arguments like that in a long time. It sounds like nothing a McDouble couldn't fix, though. 100%. Yeah. And I knew that she would hate if I had that McDouble. Like, oh, she would loathe. I just fed you salmon. I was trying to get a healthy meal for you, and you go out and get this McDouble.
Starting point is 00:28:20 And I'm like eating it right in front of her face. It's like, how do you like it? Or like just a perfect balance of like, you don't eat it in front of her, but you make sure to spill a little bit on you. Like, what is that? What? No, it's the old shirt. No, that's fresh ketchup.
Starting point is 00:28:30 That's fresh ketchup. And I know you get ketchup on your McDoubles. She like licks my shirt. Cheese. I knew it. Cheap cheese. This is fast food cheese. Gosh.
Starting point is 00:28:41 Yeah. Yeah. Anyway, that's, that's the only time I've ever really ran away from home. There's a few times i would just say all right i have to leave how long are you gone it depends on how mad i am man depends on how much i want to keep running the hook no it's usually like i leave and i calm down and i'm almost always the one that texts her first like i'm sorry i'm an idiot so hey i'm sorry and also mcdonald's has an uh deal right now i can get two McCafes. Do you want one?
Starting point is 00:29:05 Do you want one or do you want me to drink both of them? Because either way, I'm getting two. It's too good of a deal. Yeah. The only times I can remember doing this were when we lived at the K-Life house. So it was like a long time, five years ago. Oh, wow. A long, long time.
Starting point is 00:29:16 Yeah. It's not like we get in arguments very much anymore. Or we do, but we just get over them real quick. Yeah. We're really good at marriage. I mean, it sounds like, yeah, you've,
Starting point is 00:29:25 you've saved hundreds of dollars on therapy by just getting a McDouble and look at you now. Yeah. Ray Kroc therapy, baby. Oh, Ray Kroc. Yeah.

Starting point is 00:35:08 some dishes i say brad what do you got as far as scrubbing goes he's like you got that you know kind of wooden thing over there i don't prefer or there's the scrub daddy cold water rigid warm water soft yeah i say already no i'm gonna i love the rigidity of a good sponge yeah i'm gonna keep it cold. Yeah. And it was a great product. Right. It was great. And I'm so glad, like, that was literally like, hey, you got Catherine's favorite way to clean a dish over here.
Starting point is 00:35:33 You got Brad's over here. Choose wisely. You know, like Catherine's like cute, like Joanna Gaines style, like little like wooden brush that doesn't work at all, but looks nice. And then you got like the fluorescent orange scrub daddy baby i did feel a bit like air bud at the end of the movie and um you know like you're like the the clown like with the with the newspaper hey come here come here and then uh anyway i did not go to my owner though last night went to scrub daddy that's right you would i do think though i still prefer like the the handle um with the
Starting point is 00:36:06 like the hard plastic on the end or whatever like a little bit more leverage maybe yeah i think they have one like that for scrub like i need a handle yeah that's hey that's fine that's fine it is well yeah i was nervous to say it yeah i think so yeah oh you should really go scrub daddy oh man anyway that's the one thing i had to talk about though i know that that was a long time ago but was camping with my neighbor that's the one i was like racking my brain like i don't know what i did this week i just hung out with my family i think that's great i'll play pickleball with you yeah pickleball's great went swimming pickleball's good so it was nice oh as soon as you left swimming we started talking to that couple who
Starting point is 00:36:41 was there uh turns out the guy had a one wheel and so me and gunner took a few laps around the pool with that wait i don't know what that is oh it's like that it's um no it's like a huge uh like um industrial tire in the middle of a skateboard but it's all electric and like your weight kind of like a hoverboard yeah yeah kind of okay whoa that's something on my face for a while. Was it sweet? I'd written one before. I also got a text today. But I was surprised. I mean, those things like eighteen hundred dollars, which is a lot for an electronic skateboard. And he was like, yeah, you can ride around the pool if you want.
Starting point is 00:37:14 And so I was like, great. Nice guy. So you missed out on a really fun. I guarantee I would not have tried that thing anyway. I would have been the guy thrown in the pool on accident. Cleaver was like, I probably shouldn't. I don't do great on skateboard type things. Well, he's also a size like 15 shoe.
Starting point is 00:37:29 He probably couldn't fit on there. You got a bigger skateboard. That's crazy. Interesting. Yeah, pickleball and snowing was a great combo. Oh, except for McDonald's. I'm just now remembering
Starting point is 00:37:37 they gave me unsweetened tea. That was so disappointing. No, it was great for me, man. Luckily, yeah, Brad the vacuum was there and he sucked it right up. No, it was so refreshing. Unsweet tea after a hot day of pickleball? Oh, been a while.
Starting point is 00:37:49 Haven't heard a ding in a while. No, no, you can't hear it. It's a directional mic. Yeah, they're great. Good mics. I did have a good line that I was proud of during pickleball. I always serve pretty safely every time. It's smart.
Starting point is 00:38:00 Yeah. You never really win on a serve, in my opinion, or very rarely. So Gunnar goes, Bradad you serve like a grandma and then like right after that he hit it back to me and i smacked it back at him and it went past him i go i may serve it like a grandma but hit it back like your daddy that was great and you said it as you hit it too okay yeah i was on her team had a good view of it all yeah Yeah, it felt good. Yeah. Gunnar and I are kind of getting this unwritten rivalry going, which is pretty fun.
Starting point is 00:38:30 No reason to, but we just trash talk each other more than I trash talk anybody else. Yeah, it's pretty fun. So, yeah. Anyway. I delivered some mail today. I just remembered that. Oh, yeah. I got a package to our door, and it was not the right address.
Starting point is 00:38:43 Like, I'm not Thomas. So you whistled on over to Thomas' house. Yeah, I did. Delivered some mail. oh yeah got a package to our door and it was not the right address like i'm not thomas so you whistled on over to thomas's house yeah i did uh-huh delivered some mail and then right when i came back got a knock on my door i was like oh this is like you know thomas coming back i don't know maybe he got some of my mail no it was neighbor west this is the same guy who a long time ago thought i was peter gave me his entire itinerary for when he was gone vacation yeah so he knocks on my door at like probably 12 30 in the afternoon today and open it he goes hey sorry if i woke you up um and i was like okay west what do you think yeah they know either west just woke up or yeah he just thinks
Starting point is 00:39:18 just that you guys sleep in all the time yeah um so that was interesting but he was like hey i just um wanted to offer i can cut down some of your trees in your backyard for you if you want me to i was like i you know what why don't you walk around and show me what trees you got down what a weird offer hey i can um take out your gutters if you want if you want me to like yeah if you're not using those windows i can get them right out of here i I got a window remover. I got it at a yard sale from a guy who doesn't live at his house. Right.
Starting point is 00:39:52 So I was like, Wes, show me the trees. Were they like, did it have, was it his best interest for you to cut down these trees? Is that what he was doing? There is some, I mean, I would say the term tree is being used a little loose. What I saw was not a tree. Pretty much sticks. Well, just like, it looks like, kind of like weeds almost. It looks like greenery and whatever. Okay. And he's like, so those back
Starting point is 00:40:10 there are trees and they are going to grow. They're going to grow fast and they're going to ruin that fence. So I could take him out for you today if you want. And so then I'm thinking in my head, like, obviously I'm going to ask Peter about this. Yeah. But oh, this dude definitely thinks I'm Peter. This is going to confuse him. Oh boy. How old is this guy? Estimated 70s i have to see his id today um so yeah 74 like i've always
Starting point is 00:40:31 wanted to know what uh kansas id looks like yeah it's very close sideways everyone's different i don't know are you organ donor wes cool i mean good luck but no one's gonna need that one okay you know what why don't you just keep it? Yeah. You need it more than they do. Oh, man. That's going to be great. Whatever. You know, I'm going to call Peter. Well, OK.
Starting point is 00:40:50 Well, wait a second. Yeah. Wes thinks I'm a schizophrenic now. I got multiple personalities. That's probably why he thinks you're asleep all the time. Yeah. Does know what time is day. So I chose to leave out the wordeter just to make it a little easier
Starting point is 00:41:05 for him i said i don't own this house let me call the landlord and get back to you oh there you go there you go um peter got back to a few hours later i was like you know maybe west is asleep now obviously he's got weird sleeping habits i'm not going back over to west's house um so so you'll update us next time yeah i'm excited for more offers from wes mainly i know like what if what if you just like purposely you know kind of set things up to where he has to be your handyman like i'll try they like just put some like really dirty clothes on the fence you know like those are gonna get mold that that's gonna mold the fence out soon if you don't let me wash those for you the fence is just how i communicate with wes yeah like uh like i've got like a desk that's a little
Starting point is 00:41:43 uneven like one of the legs is a little off. It's like right on the fence for some reason. You just put it on the fence. It's just wobbling there. Yeah, you see how that thing's wobbling? Yeah, it's gonna be like Tim Taylor and Wilson on Home Improvement. Remember that show?
Starting point is 00:41:58 Remember him though? He like, oh yeah. Yeah, you only saw it on television. What an interesting idea for a character. Yeah, that's a funny show, dude. I watched a recent, like an episode recently it is it is funny really i haven't watched it forever but tim watching back in the day yeah i loved him in buzz lightyear in buzz lightyear oh the movie in buzz lightyear the movie uh i saw um a friend of mine from high school on
Starting point is 00:42:21 facebook this week i guess she's pregnant and pretty common thing i guess she's pregnant judging by those pictures she either uh quarantine has not been good to her or she's pregnant i guess she's probably she didn't text me she didn't you know i'm i'm making some i was like the word i guess like that makes me laugh i guess she's pregnant i guess she did it i don't know anyway go ahead uh you know it's pretty normal and i'm not uh making fun of this at all but you know the typical like he's the size of a grapefruit now he's the size of you know whatever i think that's kind of cool i've always thought that's kind of cool because i know nothing about miracle chagras i'm like no way acorn avocado already or it is like yeah when it's that small i'm like that's crazy that it's even a thing yes it is the acorn is my favorite
Starting point is 00:43:03 one to compare it to. But this one was an interesting, you know, every time I've heard the comparison, always a round fruit. I'm not making this up. This is not like something like made up for a bit. She said, little whatever his name is, is the size of a banana. It's like, you might want to get that baby looked at. He is oblong. And look how tiny is like the top of his head is whoa he's making like like he's about to dive off the diving board we got an alfalfa over here
Starting point is 00:43:31 yeah just like it looks like a little unpeeled banana halfway peeled banana still ripe that's crazy yeah and i don't think she was trying to be funny but i just i'd never say maybe i'm wrong maybe i just you know maybe that's very normal in the in the fruit comparison game Well, I think a banana they do have an app like they have an app that says what what? Fruit you are whatever so she's just going off. She's going off that that app I think I'm sure there's a million apps now for it But you don't think she's taking a stab at the dark like she's like hon feel this you feel this kick I mean, that's like a banana shaped. Yeah
Starting point is 00:44:04 Just hold I know that's a stem get lower where I mean, that's like a banana shaped kick. Right, right. Yeah. Well, just... Hold on. No, that's a stem. Get lower where his legs are. Yeah, that's the bottom stem where monkeys use it from. Nope, nope. That's something else. I don't know. Oh, he's peeling. He's peeling. Hun, feel him. He's peeling. Now, there's two bananas in here.
Starting point is 00:44:21 Got a banana split. Oh, my gosh. Nice. Banana split split because that's how the um it works with twins yes the cell splits the cell splits something does yeah that's right the egg the egg splits right fact check us no don't we're right no hey stop quit it quit googling it yeah if you're going to use the internet go to ghostrunners.life or something. Yeah, or Patreon at least. Anyway.
Starting point is 00:44:50 So yeah, I'm sorry if that's a very normal thing and I'm just ignorant. I know I probably am, but I thought that was funny to compare it to such a narrow, thin, slender. It is funny. It's like, yeah. Yeah. Like an avocado seems like a pretty- That's a baby shape. Yeah. Yeah. Like I avocado seems like a pretty- That's a baby shape.
Starting point is 00:45:05 Yeah, yeah. Like I often call Bo my Bo-vocado. Avocado. Dang it. Avocado, yeah. Next time, Nick. Stupid! It's all right.
Starting point is 00:45:12 We'll get there. We'll get there. Oh, why do I do this? I shouldn't have a podcast. Every week I say something and then I regret. Yes. Golly. Let's run it back.
Starting point is 00:45:24 Anyway. Do you remember the Chris Farley bit? The Chris Farley- That's what I was thinking of. Let's run it back. Anyway. Do you remember the Chris Farley bit? The Chris Farley show? That's what I was thinking of. That's what you were thinking of. Yeah. Where he's like, that's awesome. That's awesome.
Starting point is 00:45:32 So I remember when I first got to, or not when I first got to camp, but whenever I was on programs at camp, that was like a thing I would do all the time. I'm just like, you know, when I screw up, like so stupid. God. You know, like it is self-deprecating. And people would always ask, like, did you get that from somewhere? And I legitimately could not remember. I was like, I'm sure I did, but I cannot remember where I got that from.
Starting point is 00:45:50 And then it dawned on me years later. I was like, it was that old SNL thing with Chris Farley. Yeah. Yeah. Do you remember that scene where you were chained to the bed? Yeah. Yeah. Of course, Chris.
Starting point is 00:46:01 That was awesome. That was awesome. Or when he's like talking to Paul McGarn, he's like, you know, you say the road you take is the road you make. He's like, yeah, sometimes I just feel like
Starting point is 00:46:10 what you give is what you get. He's like, toss, toss, toss. He's like flying, his hair's like flying everywhere. Oh,
Starting point is 00:46:17 it's so funny. Anyway. I want to be Chris Farley in some ways. I want to be Chris Farley in some ways. Yeah, yeah. Not all the ways, but just in the- Let I want to be Chris Farley in some ways. Yeah, yeah. Not all the ways, but just in the...
Starting point is 00:46:26 Let me try to guess. Drug abuse. Nope. Oh, dang it. I never... Try again, try again. Okay, okay, okay. Comedic timing.
Starting point is 00:46:34 Yes. Ability to adapt to a character. Sure. Dancing moves in certain... Oh, what's it called? Dang it, I forgot about it. Chippendales. Chippendales skits.
Starting point is 00:46:48 Yes, we should redo that. Whoa. That's a good idea. Holy cow. I'll get a spray tan. Everyone's watching. See what you do. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:47:03 Dang, that's a... Okay. That has to happen. Once we get a thousand people on patreon i'll do that i promise we will both dance for you yep a thousand patrons yep so tell your grandma tell your aunt tell everybody gosh um i'm sure more news like this is going to come out even by the time this is released but a more recent thing for us right now is that football college football is saying, hey, to fight the spread of COVID-19, we're only going to have conference football. That that makes it all better. Congrats.
Starting point is 00:47:37 You solved it. We don't play Appalachian State, so we're good. We're fine. We're going to have West Virginia play Baylor. Yeah. And it'll be fine. No, it's fine. No, no, no. We are fine. We're going to have West Virginia play Baylor, and it'll be fine. No, it's fine. No, no, no.
Starting point is 00:47:49 We are not playing Marshall as West Virginia. No, that'd be ridiculous. We're going to go all the way down to Waco, Texas, and it'll be fine. I get that they probably feel like they have to do something to make it seem like they're making an effort, but I just think it's so funny. It's like, congrats, guys. You've stopped the spread of the virus.
Starting point is 00:48:04 Okay. You're only going to play teams in an 11 state region yeah i like i think it's just hilarious that like what's the rationale behind like hey we it's not safe enough to go to school but hey let's go ahead and play a sport um that people aren't getting paid for and are making millions of dollars for university where people are just jumping on top of each other the whole time you know what i mean like i'm all for college football for the record i want i i want sports but if you're if we can't go to school then why yeah but you're yeah if they're talking about student athletes be it student athletes they're athlete students at this point yeah it is funny because especially
Starting point is 00:48:38 like do you see the outlaw jersey swaps so it's like sweat on each other spit on each other like as much as you want i know but how dare you exchange like a garment like how hard would it be just be like hey just throw it to him you know like thank you like you don't have to yeah jersey swap thing is so silly i know like high schools right now they're doing like summer scrimmages for basketball and everything like they're playing full-on basketball games but they're calling them scrimmages, but they're also stopping the spread. Cause they don't shake hands afterwards. They just wave.
Starting point is 00:49:09 Hey. So yeah. But every time they get the ball, they have to disinfect it before they do anything else. Yeah. Yeah. And like, you can block out,
Starting point is 00:49:14 but like respect, like if you feel like they would have blocked you out, respect your distance. Just don't get up on them. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. No,
Starting point is 00:49:20 like over the back is you kicked out of the game. Cause you should not have been that close. Yeah. Do not get over the back and do not yell. Only sing. Hey, anyway, that's crazy. I just, when I saw that headline, you know, it was like Ivy League was first and then like other conferences.
Starting point is 00:49:33 I think Big 12 was doing it. Is Big 12 officially in? Maybe. By the time this comes out. Yeah, probably. Yeah. They're, they're, they're falling. The stacks are falling.
Starting point is 00:49:41 Oh, speaking of sports, darts is a stupid game what i said it tell me more i think the way it's scored is stupid you go for the bullseye you could be so close and you get the one that does not feel like how a sport should be played but then if i miss like crazy i got an 18 for triple triple yeah now i gotta play the electronic darts triple that's what they would always do every time train i've been doing a verbal bop it a lot recently verbal just Pop it and yeah, yes That's good. Oh, so you do the do you do like so three bop it or you go bop it extreme?
Starting point is 00:50:20 We just did three. Oh, I love it. I love the flick it flick it Anyway, that's fun. Anyway, that's nerdy and fun. That's fun. Oh, but yeah, darts. Yeah, dude, tell me more. That's mainly it. Just the way it's scored.
Starting point is 00:50:34 Yeah, it's very inconsistent. It feels so weird. Yeah, that's fair. Almost any other. Well, yeah, just like if it's like shuffleboard. What about baseball? You hit the you hit the top of the wall. It could be a single if you're slow enough. Move baseball? You hit the top of the wall. It could be a single if you're slow enough.
Starting point is 00:50:47 Mo Vaughn hits the top of the wall. He's not getting to second. I will say my one issue with baseball is like Texas Leaguers. You got jammed. That kind of happens all the time in baseball. You hit the ball at the end of the bat, but it happened to like dribble. Sorry, Texas Leaguers. What's that?
Starting point is 00:50:59 Oh, it's like it's jargon for like one that like drops just short, like just over the second baseman, but like just short of right field. OK, like new. Didn't know that. Oh, really's like it's jargon for like one that like drops just short, like just over the second baseman, but like just short of right field. OK, like new didn't know that. Oh, really? Yeah. It's just like, yeah, like obviously we're trying to bloop it into short left field. Right. But like you got jammed into it.
Starting point is 00:51:13 Dude, the Royals did that all the time back in the day. You remember that? Like they always had the dinkiest little hits. But you just do not like that because it's like that's not skilled. Well, yeah, it just seems like a flaw in the game or like you can hit a hard line drive at the pitcher and he catches it. Like that was a perfect hit. That's what makes baseball so cool is like a flaw in the game or like you can hit a hard line drive at the pitcher and he catches it like that was a perfect hit that's what makes baseball so cool is like you look at the whole field it's such a big field but if you do it three out of ten times
Starting point is 00:51:31 you're amazing you're one of the best yeah it's crazy yeah baseball is very hard so it's okay to have some flaws but darts but i'm not i'm not allowing darts to be cool because think about most other like not even bar games but just like individual sports like shuffleboard or something like that where it's like if i didn't get what i was supposed to well i at least got an eight or i got to six you know but darts is like bullseye or one is six millimeters away that's fair silly way to go for millimeters for our canadian listeners that's right jason heinz out there yeah oh that's about about the t-shirts our company said it would cost 30 bucks to ship a shirt to Canada. We'll figure it out. And I said, that's a lot. Okay. So let's, let's put a number out
Starting point is 00:52:10 there. How many t-shirt sales does it take for us to drive them to Canada? I'm serious. Let's drive them to Canada, baby. Let's have a ghost runners meetup in Saskatchewan. Um, I don't know the numbers right now. Cause I don't know. Uh, but. 500. I don't know. But yeah, we'll figure something out. That'd be pretty fun. That'd be pretty fun to have a reason to drive to Canada with you. I mean, flights are pretty cheap. If you're okay with flying, I might prefer to do that.
Starting point is 00:52:39 I mean, it wouldn't be as epic of a story, but that would be a lot faster. You're right. Yeah, yeah. I got a Scott's Cheap Flight email today. Costa Rica for $220. I was like, let me look into this. I Googled Costa Rica travel restriction. It's like, we're not allowing anyone to come in the country unless you're a part of the Costa Rican embassy or something.
Starting point is 00:52:54 You know, I'm like, so this is probably not worth an email then about the flight because I'm not a part of the. Look it up, Scott. Yeah, Scott. Before you send it out to everybody. Yeah. Great deal though. It's just illegal. So cool, cool, cool, cool, cool. Before you send it out to everybody. Yeah, great deal, though. It's just illegal.
Starting point is 00:53:05 So cool, cool, cool, cool, cool. Oh, bummer. Well, unless, yeah, if you're out there and you're part of the embassy, jump on it, baby. I'd say you're missing out if you don't go down there and see it. Yeah. Anyway, what were we just? Just called triple and darts. Darts.
Starting point is 00:53:21 Whatever. We don't analyze darts too much. But so I think the 20, the 20 is the best number right it's right next to one correct i think it only goes up to 19 no definitely goes up to 20 i think it goes up to 20 i think i know for sure because the triple 20 is your best thing okay okay okay i believe you i believe you so i think 20 and one so technically like you could go for a little bit safer thing rather than going for the 20 you go for like the because i think it goes 21 maybe 19 2 whatever like in that pattern so maybe there's like a 9 10 down here maybe that's the strategy maybe that's part of darts that's a strategy that's the only that's that's the very
Starting point is 00:53:55 weak rebuttal i can have against your hate that's good for it's like playing it safe yeah it's like it's like the texas leaker or your serving pickleball. Yeah, my grandma served it. Makes me your daddy. Okay, we're already like an hour into this, kind of. You're kidding. Do you want to listen to some voice memos? Okay. Okay.
Starting point is 00:54:17 That's a fun idea. Okay, yeah. We'll do this for the first time ever. Hey, J&B. Whoa. This is Sarah calling from the 118 degree heat in phoenix arizona it's a dry heat save us sun drain please um i'm absolutely loving the pod a couple questions for you i lived in kc for a short time a couple years ago my husband so shout out to the midwest
Starting point is 00:54:39 boys hey uh we both love coffee and a lot of our first dates included him taking me to different coffee shops in the kc area yeah sounds like jake you go and a lot of our first dates included him taking me to different coffee shops in the KC area. Sounds like, Jake, you go to a lot of coffee shops to hit up the ladies. Oh, yeah. So, just curious what your guys' favorite coffee shop or shops in KC are. Me and my husband, we both love Thou Mayest, the old location, RIP. Yeah. Goat Hill, and for Brad on the Kansas side, we like Split Lock.
Starting point is 00:55:00 My second question is, if you could choose to have dinner with one famous dead person, who would it be? It can't be Jesus. That's the only person you can't choose um not technically dead kind of a giveaway let me know what you guys think thanks for all the laughs bye two very different questions what are your favorite coffee shops and as far as dead people go who do you want to eat with uh thank you sarah for the voicemail cool he was living in kansas city um i love that they yeah she's like stereotyping you as the coffee shop guy which you go to coffee shops but you don't like coffee very much no it's not for the coffee it's for like mainly productivity it's that social accountability of people watching me while i work yeah i i don't i don't dilly dally as much and you know once in a blue moon, maybe there's a little Arabian princess in there that I'd say Come here. Come here. I want to whisper to ya
Starting point is 00:55:53 Come here. Come here. Actually before I say anything listen to this new noise. I just found I could do Dang it Okay, I'll practice. I'm like a baseball player three out of ten is pretty good There you go. Hey see jasmine are you impressed um i had to look up split log coffee company it does not seem like it would be a coffee company it seems like one of your competitors yeah split log yeah i don't know or maybe they do some like uh green lumber type stuff right but um i'll check it out i like uh pilgrim because they have a ton of natural light and it's not that far away from my house and i like messenger um because it's also very bright in there i like i see someone i know every single time i go and it's also trey's favorite so we go there to work a lot i think like three
Starting point is 00:56:34 of our music videos been written in messenger coffee it's a nice place yeah nice place messenger is also my answer we have a friend uh or i have a friend at our church that owns a small part of messenger so it's like they own Messenger, Black Dog and Filling Station. So they're all good. I don't really know enough about coffee to know if it's really that good. No one does. But it tastes right. It tastes like it's supposed to.
Starting point is 00:56:55 It doesn't taste bad. Yeah. Not bad. Okay, so dead people. Oh yeah, right. I'm so bad at those kind of questions because I'm sure there's like a great answer. I'm going to answer first because I know yours is going to those kind of questions because I'm sure there's a great answer. I'm going to answer first because I know yours is going to be better than mine. We have a great answer.
Starting point is 00:57:09 Mine's definitely going to be sports related. Michael Jordan's still good. As far as we know. This won't come out for a week. This makes me sad, actually, but Kobe Bryant maybe is my answer. Really? I feel like it's trendy and cool
Starting point is 00:57:22 to say you love Kobe Bryant now, but I truly did. He was my favorite player growing up. Yeah, I don't know. It trendy and cool to say you love Kobe Bryant now, but I truly did. Like he was my favorite player growing up. And so, yeah, I don't know. It'd be cool to talk to him. Yeah. Yeah. I think it would be just hear about his life.
Starting point is 00:57:32 And yeah, anyway, uh, I legitimately do not know who mine is going to be. I was thinking about going like the philosopher route, like how smart is Leonardo da Vinci? It'd be cool to talk to him, but does he speak English? Right? No. Right. You've seen Bill and speak English? Right. No. Right. You've seen Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure? No.
Starting point is 00:57:49 They just have like all these historic figures in there that don't speak English. Dang, kind of a bummer then. Yeah, they have like Napoleon and Socrates. Socrates, as they call him. Nice. Socrates. So I should probably go with an English speaker. Maybe I'd go, it'd be cool to hang out with Alexander Hamilton.
Starting point is 00:58:06 Like, dude, you're a big deal now. You have no idea. You really left a mark on at least one guy who really likes you. Okay. Actual answer would be survey says. Gosh, who's dead? Okay. George Washington. John Adams. Just go through every single president. Guys, gosh, who's dead? Okay, George Washington, John Adams.
Starting point is 00:58:29 Just go through every single president. Grover Cleveland again. That's right. Have I told you about, well, you saw last night, Hattie has that placemat that has all the presidents on it. Yeah, it's nice. It's like such a classic homeschool thing to have placemats when you eat, like with different things you can learn about. But she gets to choose what placemat she has every day and she always chooses the presidents and she loves for whatever reason
Starting point is 00:58:48 martin van buren just thinks martin van buren looks awesome every single time she always wants to talk about martin van buren so that would probably be hattie's answer definitely old marty marty marty marty v in the house uh they him MVB Because he's the MVP No doubt My answer It's going to be tough to decide Lewis or Clark I don't know which one I want
Starting point is 00:59:10 Oh true Maybe cool to ask like What'd you see? Yeah What were some stuff you saw But you couldn't write down? Yes That
Starting point is 00:59:17 That's See That's why you have fun answers Like better than mine I mean I took a long time To think of that though But totally Because they saw things
Starting point is 00:59:23 That they probably don't even know The names of yeah like they'd be describing them then you'd be like oh yeah that's an otter like no no no no this thing was like a small dog cat huge tail yeah huge tail yeah otter no no no this thing this you know it was like cut down trees oh that's a beaver it was like no otter you're saying that wrong no beaver. It was like no otter. You're saying that wrong. No, no. I'm saying it is an otter. No otter. Nice, dude. Thanks.
Starting point is 00:59:48 Yeah. I don't know. That would be really fun to talk to them and be like, how close do you get to dying? And be honest. We're one of you like kind of digging Sakagawis chili. Sakagawi. Be honest. I can't believe that Catherine says Sakagawi.
Starting point is 01:00:00 It's unbelievable. It's crazy. She's so well educated, except for pronouncing Sakajui. Yeah. Okay. It's a fun question. Another voice memo. Hey, Jake and Brad. It's Rosie from Nashville. I'm actually originally from
Starting point is 01:00:17 Wapak, Ohio, where Neil Armstrong is from. My aunt used to hang out with him and he used to pull her pigtails. I guess he must have thought she was cute or something. No doubt, no doubt. Second, I spent some time in Cincinnati working for the Reds and studying for college.
Starting point is 01:00:37 I don't understand the whole chili thing. I think it's gross. But my question for you guys is if you could give if you could give a wedgie to anyone in history who would it be and why such a historical two voicemails back to back lewis or clark probably i would choose whichever one i didn't choose for the dinner or sagajewia yeah no i don't give her wedgie no you just feel bad and she's probably basically wearing a wedgie anyway. True.
Starting point is 01:01:06 Yeah, just like a loin skin. No, I would probably, so I'm a big Royals fan. And growing up, no, not growing up, before I was around, I think they had a huge rivalry with the Yankees, a.k.a. Reggie Jackson, a.k.a. Mr. October. And I would get a good time to do it when they're playing the Royals. And it's like a pivotal moment. I would go right up when he's like on deck and give him a wedgie to where everyone sees him.
Starting point is 01:01:32 And then I would yell really loud. Hey guys, it's wedgie mill. Oh crap. Wedgie Jackson. I'm a combo. Shoot. Oh,
Starting point is 01:01:42 dang it. I'm going for a drive. I'm giving it a double. We're back in a little bit. Pam, we're going home. Yeah, anyway. Reggie, Wedgie Jackson, guys. Dang, that's a good answer.
Starting point is 01:01:54 Wedgie Jackson. Wedgie Jackson. You can go Wedgie Miller if you want. No, you basically said that one anyway. I think mine, I was going to say another athlete that I didn't like was going to go Rasheed Wallace. But I was like, no, I could do better. Rashe wallace was like your first like i hate that guy yeah i hate that guy i don't like him that's fair um but i would be scared of retaliation yeah i would not mess with rashid um my answer would be james wilkes booth give him a wedgie
Starting point is 01:02:25 in the theater right before he pulls the trig oh my gosh I just I sit him to the sky Mary Todd watch out
Starting point is 01:02:34 cause it's gonna like fling I don't know that's good give him a wedgie can you imagine what if what if
Starting point is 01:02:40 what if you did and Abe could still be our president now dude seriously you don't know I? You don't know. I mean, that vampire Abraham Lincoln movie was pretty convincing. Hey, Jake and Brad, this is Melissa and Kristen, and we're from Wichita, Kansas.
Starting point is 01:02:53 Oh. We started listening to you on Jay Kennedy's podcast and thought, we need to be friends with this guy. So we came and found you on Ghost Runners, and it just confirmed it. We needed to be friends. So God willing. We will see you in a coffee shop, and it will not be bad. Anyway, on your episode 16, you mentioned something about a big Buddha on this river.
Starting point is 01:03:18 And our grandma, we grew up with her calling a girl's private parts a Buddha. So of course we giggled when you said that i would too but we were wondering if your families have anything weird that they did or that they would call things and you didn't know it was weird until you started talking to other people anyways hopefully we see you in a coffee shop soon all right bye so we actually had one as a family i mean all the listeners probably know i grew up in a very like orthodox jewish family and so we called like the male private parts the dreidel and i didn't learn that was weird until just a couple years ago i went got a physical and uh he asked me to drop my drawers and i was like
Starting point is 01:04:02 oh is this where you you know check my? Oh, is this where you spin my top? Is this where you get under my yarmulke? Yeah. Is this where you mazel my tav? I don't know. I don't know enough about Jewish humor, but that's funny. That's mine.
Starting point is 01:04:18 Oh, I think I talked about this on the episode with Trey on our Patreon page. I'm just going to plug Patreon like crazy now on our Patreon page, but we just going to plug Patreon like crazy now on our Patreon page, but we grew up saying poopy sound. Did I talk about that on a regular podcast? Whatever reason, instead of flatulating, instead of tooting,
Starting point is 01:04:34 we said, oh, Brad poopy sounded. It was like, yeah, I don't know. It's like worse. It's like grosser than just saying fart. Just say fart. Pooping sound. Mom, if you're out there, why did we say that? Let me know.
Starting point is 01:04:48 But very funny voice memo. So you're going to copy shop a little. Not to be bad. That's funny. Wait, did they? Oh, yeah, they did ask the question. We already answered it. Poopy sound.
Starting point is 01:04:56 Yeah, dreidel and poopy sound. Dreidel. That's also true, I'm sure. Yeah, for sure. I mean, they went Buddha. I figured I'd choose another religion. Also, I missed that. It was called Giant Buddha.
Starting point is 01:05:04 If you're going to fact check me me it's called giant buddha it's so cool it's on the kona city island state airport exactly okay has mr c's responded and already left a voice memo yet no not yet dang that's so surprising that he hasn't it's okay we got more um let's see here we go this one this one says brad no sdl hate please you can't make fun of them fine jake and brad this is page from omaha currently looking for advertising and public relations jobs in the kc area though so if you know of anything let a girl know anyway i was listening to this last week's podcast about jake's call to 9-1-1 and it reminded me of last summer I was in St. Louis in an Uber on the way to Bush Stadium, go Cardinals, and saw a car on the side
Starting point is 01:05:53 of the interstate that was on fire, completely on fire. Luckily no one was in it. I called 9-1-1 and got an automated operator message that said to hang on till the next available person which downtown st louis for you anyway my question for you is what is an irrational pill that you each would die on so for me i think golden doodles are only cute when they're puppies i think oh golden doodles not that cute Oh wow Love the podcast Bye bye I'm sorry I can't get over the The fact that she said
Starting point is 01:06:27 No STL hate please And then she said I mean you know That's down to St. Louis for you And I'm like Why can't I Why can't I
Starting point is 01:06:34 If you can She threw the first stone You say you're in Omaha So you're not even like In Like you're not even Living in St. Louis Why
Starting point is 01:06:40 And she's looking for jobs In Kansas City Holler at me I think I might have some Genuine like Opportunities I know people that work in advertising oh so holler um gosh yeah whatever it's fine i don't really have that much hate for saying this just fun to joke around um irrational hills jake irrational hills um i wasn't paying a ton of attention was she talking about like literal hills that i've had like issues with yeah like well then they're not real hills though
Starting point is 01:07:12 okay gotcha kansas we don't have many like the flint hills yeah are allegedly like a a mountain range but it doesn't look like it no that's probably one of my favorite irrational hills um jonah hill um in the movie super bad i feel like he was irrational several times yeah that'd be an irrational hill for me how do you feel about golden doodles actually oh i like them do you i kind of agree with the shoemakers yeah i thought they were cool i kind of agree with her i think that they're fine but i think they're they're so expensive i think that i think it's just like that's not that good of a like if you're gonna manufacture a dog i would want something cooler than this you know what i mean like they're like really trying hard to have a specific type of dog right now
Starting point is 01:07:48 yeah and it's not that great it's fine i like golden retrievers i think the best oh yeah i'm very outspoken about that yeah golden doodles golden doodles are still above average to me though because as much as i love dogs there are quite a few that i'm like you're kind of ugly to me like no matter what how cute you are yeah to your owner you're not to me yeah no they're cute they're cute they're just they definitely get less cute over time they're they're like a opposite of a fine wine irrational hills i'm not that opinionated of a person in general it's hard for me to come up with this stuff but uh i think But I think too many people throw. What am I trying to say here? I think most cities are the same.
Starting point is 01:08:32 That's that's fair to an extent, except for Kansas City. I'm just kidding. Yeah, I just I think most large cities aren't that different. But everyone has so many strong opinions about them. Like I lived in Denver for a little bit like I hated it. And then once I moved to Tulsa, it was just like, it was more me, you know, like, I feel like I vibe with the city more. I'm like, yo, I'm telling you, these cities are barely different. You think so? Yeah. That's fair. I, I feel like they probably, I think you're probably right to an extent of like, yeah, there's some places in
Starting point is 01:09:03 Denver that are like super nice and like have like, you know, you have a Starbucks in every corner and then there's some places that are like, you don't go there at night. It's like, oh, there's like, there's places like that in Tulsa too. It's like, yeah, that's called every economy ever. Yeah. And I think so much of your experience in a city or just in that period of your life is about the people you surround yourself with, how busy are you, how much fun are you having?
Starting point is 01:09:24 Yeah. And it's not about like the, the infrastructure of the city or like the size of it necessarily or like its opportunities for you I think it's like if you didn't make great friends at the beginning then you have this like tainted view of Portland now it's like that's a Portland's fault Portland's fine They have the Blazers so yeah, but like I already said it's hard for me to really have too strong an opinion about anything like that. But that's one thing that I've thought of before. Gosh, I know I have strong opinions.
Starting point is 01:09:51 I just can't think of them right now. And I'm sorry for not coming prepared. I'll give you some random topics and just see if anything. Okay, yeah. Attending a sports game. Haircuts. Okay. Just overall cleanliness.
Starting point is 01:10:03 Okay. Metal springs. This is great. Lawn equipment. uh haircuts okay um just overall cleanliness okay um metal springs um uh this is a great lawn equipment okay uh warmer no um swimming pools getting wet in general um drying off in general i suck at drying off we've talked about that before i think but yeah i'm terrible i've talked about how i might be bad but there's no way of knowing because no one's ever seen me do it true yeah you'll get there i have a lot of things that i need to check up on But yeah, I'm terrible at it. I've talked about how I might be bad, but there's no way of knowing because no one's ever seen me do it. True. Yeah, you'll get there. I have a lot of things that I need to check up on.
Starting point is 01:10:30 It's like, I've always done this in private. How much longer till Isaac is that guy for you? Isaac, I've drank your loofah water. It's time you see me use a loofah. It's time you, yeah. Tell me if I'm doing it right. How's my dreidel? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:10:42 I don't know, man. I, I. The human body. Okay. duck build platypi um is that one too specific no okay uh different fonts um seedless fruit um things that are used to clean your uh nose and ears um i have opinions on lots of those things but like i don't feel like they're like rational irrational or like i'll die on them or anything but like i'll keep going uh puerto rico okay um people in the 1700s the industrial revolution oh sure um the old testament um let's see dot gov websites okay um anything this is great it's like catchphrase like but
Starting point is 01:11:27 but you're just answering yourself you're just like reading it like just say anything yeah um celebrities with the name ben celebrities with the name tom celebrities with the name andrew uh anything with the number one okay here's a i don't even know if it's that irrational i think it's a little bit controversial talked about on the patreon live stream last night oh my gosh just kidding i haven't fully formed this opinion but i think that hamilton is just fine it's not that good his opinion is about the shape of a banana i'll say that still growing that's right i haven't watched all of hamilton i've watched bits and pieces of it so i compared it to steven swick the other day of i it was kind of like when i didn't really think chick-fil-a was that great like i think it's great now so silly I know I'm yeah I was amateur so uh but I I've eaten a little bit of
Starting point is 01:12:09 the sandwich I've eaten some fries but I haven't had a whole meal of Hamilton yet so there's an irrational opinion that I'm I can't wait to just die on that hill I guess I guess I don't think Justin Bieber's good that's my irrational yeah because ever like the the stats are there that people think he's good like people is doing more than anybody else yeah so i think he's fine i don't think he's bad sorry i we'll we'll re-record this part of it and i'll just uh i'll find something it's just gonna hard cut to you screaming so three hole punch are you kidding it's so hard to get them even i i know i have a good answer i just can't think of all right we're gonna play a game i'm gonna say a topic and you immediately have to
Starting point is 01:12:51 take a stance on it and be pretty like aggressive one way or the other okay okay wait wait wait i feel like my hat's like crooked or something okay get your hat straight get your mind right and i want to think of something that's just so random and so out there. Okay. Well, the first one's going to do it. It's obvious. It's obvious it stands. I want something so neutral.
Starting point is 01:13:12 So neutral. Okay. Ready? TBS, the channel. Oh, my gosh. It's amazing. It's incredible. It's the best.
Starting point is 01:13:22 You got all the reruns of Fresh Prince, Saved by the Bell, Home Improvement. And then at night, every once in a while, you get the Braves games. You know what? Smoltzy, Javi Lopez, Andre's Big Cat Galarraga, Greg Maddox, Tom Glavin, Tim Hudson, all in the same game. Are you kidding me? With Bobby Cox as the manager? It's incredible. And then you're like, oh, let me go to bed at night.
Starting point is 01:13:45 I just got to fall asleep to a nice TV show or something. Wrong! You're watching Shawshank Redemption reruns for the 15th time. Yes. Along with Jingle All the Way and Bedazzled. TBS is great! I think you passed with Flying Colors. And don't get me started on how good Conan O'Brien is
Starting point is 01:14:06 I do like Conan though he's great he's incredible he's one of the most underrated comedians of our generation I would say as far as red-headed late night talk shows go he's the best number one I've never seen a better one steady hand Number one yeah Great job. Yeah, you named about eight more Braves players, and I thought you're going to win that game started Oh, baby, I could probably think more David justice Chipper Jones skill Chipper Jones. Oh my god. You forgot chipper. How yeah, that's the best one. Yeah Oh, I had a holographic showdown card Randy rope you wanted to trade it drones. Andrew Jones was my guy back in the day.
Starting point is 01:14:45 Youngest player ever at one point. That's right. Someone's probably beat him. Pendleton, I think. Terry Pendleton. Did he play for them? Wendy Peffercorn
Starting point is 01:14:51 is maybe what you're thinking of. That's who I was thinking. You're right. Different team. Yeah. Oh my God, he looks like a dead fish. We might have to do that more.
Starting point is 01:15:00 That was pretty funny. I was going to say. Let's call it something so we can do it again okay this is called um scream for me daddy no i was trying to like call back to like daddy and mama okay this is called as soon as that came out of my mouth this is called oh my gosh um this is called stand up Stand on your stance. How about just...
Starting point is 01:15:26 I like that. That's good. I was going to say, quick, give me an opinion. And that way it's like, it's not like, hey, you're going to give me an opinion now. Get ready.
Starting point is 01:15:35 You just go, quick, give me an opinion on monkey bars. And it's like, monkey bars? Oh, they hurt your... Oh yeah, I could actually talk about monkey bars. I don't really like them that much. I'm going to die on this hill.
Starting point is 01:15:45 Yeah. Yeah, they did something weird to your hands. I feel like I could actually talk about monkey bars. I don't really like them that much. I'm going to die on this hill. Yeah. Yeah, they did something weird to your hands. I feel like I could never grip them very long. And it was like by like the seventh or eighth one, I was like, my hands already hurt. Yeah. This has not made it very like nice material. No, you got to get callous before you can really master the bars.
Starting point is 01:15:56 Yeah. Which is both a rap analogy and a playground analogy. Bars. Yeah. I got out of prison and now my hands hurt. It's like I've been on the monkey bars. That's just a sample.
Starting point is 01:16:11 That's just one piece. Find me on Uber. The guy last week that was an Uber driver that was a rapper. I don't know. Oh, 52 Savage. 52 Savage.
Starting point is 01:16:21 21 Savage is his dad. Yeah. He just looked at me like, I don't get it. I was like, are you wanting me to rhyme with Uber? One thing I forgot to mention last week in that Uber ride, he was rapping along to his music, which was maybe assumed that a SoundCloud rapper driving Uber does that. But yeah, he was hitting every note and was doing a really, really good job of knowing his own lyrics.
Starting point is 01:16:42 That's fun. I wish he would have done it more like Beastie Boys style, where it was like... The star! Live! And five! I don't know. Let's go ahead and move on to review of the week. What do you say?
Starting point is 01:16:55 Okay. Okay, mama. I'm on this website that tells us a lot of information. One of them is like where we're charting, you know, in different countries. I think this is the most countries we've ever been on. Siete! Siete? Seven countries. charting you know in different countries i think this is the most countries i've ever been on seven countries united states great britain canada australia wait is this eight hold on united states great britain canada australia germany india taiwan seven taiwan on your feet taiwan let's go oh i want you to listen to my podcast. How many are listening? Is it Taiwan? Thai 2? Thai 3?
Starting point is 01:17:25 How many? That's awesome. That's cool. I feel like I always go first on Review of the Week. I think I take yours a lot of time. I take the good ones. Yeah, that's fair. You do sometimes.
Starting point is 01:17:34 Yeah, I do. I feel bad. You can go first. I got some love this week on the reviews. Yeah, you got a lot of options. Come on, baby. I'm a hot mod, baby. So I'm going to give, I got to give two.
Starting point is 01:17:43 First one is just straight up. From Brad's biggest fan, Brad is my celebrity crush come on, baby. So I'm going to give, I got to give two. First one is just straight up. Brad's from Brad's biggest fan. Brad is my celebrity crush. Okay. Awesome. I love the word celebrity and crush. You know, that's, that's awesome for me. Do you think that's someone, you know, I totally think it's my mom.
Starting point is 01:17:56 No, I don't know. I don't know who it is. I think it's mommy. I think mommy wrote my reviewing. Mommy, will you tell me? And then my second one is Amanda Murray. Yeah. She says, I came here for Jake and stayed for Brad.
Starting point is 01:18:09 Most of the time, especially girls, direct questions towards Jake. Jake is definitely hilarious. Absolutely. Thank you. And amazing. A hundred percent. But this review is for be Brad. You bring equal amount of hilarious banter to this podcast.
Starting point is 01:18:21 It wouldn't be a hit without you. I don't know about that. Because correct opinions are doing all right. Your baby of the week sounds like the greatest friend hattie is absolutely adorable and beau is cute beau is a beast okay he's not cute he's just like he's bulking up quick i'm just kidding uh beau is so cute thank you b rad for making me laugh on multiple occasions 29 is my favorite podcast episode to date which one was that remember it was the coinkydinks episode. Oh, because that was
Starting point is 01:18:47 the name of the review. Which one were the Coinkydinks? Because I remember they were awesome. They were so funny. I don't remember. And they were like
Starting point is 01:18:53 really good coincidences, but yeah, I can't remember any of them. We've talked about so many things. It wasn't the Toto Bien. That was much more recent. That was,
Starting point is 01:19:01 what a coincidencia. Oh, yeah. That one was awesome um if you know leave us a five-star review or comment that's probably the best way or patreon you know message we have those two now so if you're part of the five ten dollar fifteen dollar two i thought about i was designing ghostrunners.live today and having like the contact section i thought about not even having like a message of just like if you have something to say please uh leave a five-star review yeah and not even having like a message of just like, if you have something to say, please leave a five-star review. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:19:25 And not even having like an email or anything. The only way to talk to us is a five-star review. Yes. That's a great idea. My review of the week, I feel like I got to give it to Ryan W. because the title of the review is, can I just get on the dang podcast? So sure. Sure.
Starting point is 01:19:39 We're not special or we're not. Yeah. Yes. Yes. He says, every week I listen and write a review and every time it's not me every week i feel like we would have known he's maybe stretching the i don't know love the podcast and i will keep trying jake please notice this also how can i send in a voice no i haven't heard where to send it i don't believe you that you were listening or reviewing every week and you don't know how to. Yeah, I think there's multiple ways you could have found out how to
Starting point is 01:20:07 do that. Literally any way that you found. How'd you figure out how to do this review? Because you can probably see the link there. Yeah. I mean, yeah, there's a link in our description of every episode of where you can send in your voice memo. I think you'll be directed to a website called anchor dot FM. You put in your name, your email, and then you just do it right there on your phone. Super easy. 60-second time limit. And you could end up on the pod. There's a three-hour time limit.
Starting point is 01:20:36 Remember Tommy Boy? Oh, yeah. Or whatever he says. Is that the housekeeping? No, it's when he's in the airplane. He's like, oh, yeah, yeah He's like, knock on the bathroom. That's great. It's probably not three hour time on it.
Starting point is 01:20:50 Okay. Okay. Okay. Episode 63. I think we did it. Brad, would you like to end this episode with a little jingle jangle? I guess we could. Okay.
Starting point is 01:20:58 Probably keep it within the K-pop genre since we were talking about that. That makes sense. Yes. Okay. Well, I'll play that Classic K-pop song. Before there was Gangnam Style, there was this. There was this.

Brad, any final thoughts?
Starting point is 01:22:54 Anything on your heart this week? Anything on my heart? Just, this is a little serious, I guess. But just dads, man. Dads are like the answer to so many problems in this world. I think just good dads. If you're out there and you're a dad, be a good dad. If you're out there and you're a man, that's not a dad.
Starting point is 01:23:13 Figure out ways to be better man so that you're a better dad someday. Do someone's dishes. Do someone's dishes. Use a scrub daddy. Be a good daddy. Seriously though. I think that's, that's like the smallest scale answer to so many big problems out there so that's on my heart right now i guess that was a good good answer
Starting point is 01:23:32 yeah thanks it just dawned on me that my irrational hill is probably the darts thing probably should have just went with that answer earlier yeah i would love to play get into darts in the winter time if pickleball is not working out for us. Wintertime. Wintertime. Uh, I asked someone either left a review or send me a DM and they're like, been loving the podcast so much. I find myself talking like you a lot. And I was just like, what do you mean exactly?
Starting point is 01:23:55 Or whatever. And they said, enunciating words that no one else enunciates. Okay. I've never heard that before in my life. I didn't know that. I don't know. Okay. So there's a voicemail.
Starting point is 01:24:04 I don't know that was a thing I did. I don't know. Okay. Send us a voicemail. I don't know exactly. I honestly just have a hard time figuring out what he's talking about. And I think it's paramount that inevitably I figure it out very soon. We had to do the 50 Nifty United States song. It was Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Connecticut. Oh, really? We did. We had to really.
