Good morning, Ghosties.
Happy Wednesday.
Brad is here.
I'm here.
And Jensen Harper is back for another episode.
Here we go.
Oh, nice camera switch.
Yeah.
I don't know how much we switch the cameras on Monday.
I think Tate realized kind of near the end.
Oh, whoops.
I think that was supposed to be me.
My bad.
And that's why he's not here with us.
Yeah, he's down in the basement.
No longer with us.
Yeah.
Jensen, why are you here?
Truly.
I haven't even asked that yet.
Like, why are you in Kansas City?
Yeah, what are you doing here, man?
It was take two.
Take two, Fesson Hunt.
Was there...
Well, yeah, but that's not in Kansas City.
Well, true.
I came to see you guys.
Came to hang out, be on the podcast.
I have a little time.
A little time away from Cincinnati.
Now I'm here trying to fill the shoes of tape.
Big shoes.
Yeah, I think he was basically just like,
I got to fly out of somewhere,
why not I just fly out of Kansas City the next day.
Oh, you hadn't booked here a return flight.
No, I did.
I just knew I wanted to hang out.
Luckily, shutdown didn't affect Kansas City, MCI.
Yeah.
So it's all good.
But I didn't anticipate the shutdown.
It was just happenstance.
You just came for one more night to hang out with the Lee.
Yeah, family.
Okay.
Here we are.
Fun.
So you don't have to drive back to Omaha.
No, you're flying out of Kansas.
Yeah.
Kansas, it was Cincinnati, Detroit, Omaha,
Sioux Falls.
Yeah.
Sioux Falls area.
Yeah.
Casey, Cincinnati.
Yeah.
Got it.
Back, baby.
Can you get all it?
Yeah.
Thankful to be on.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Yeah, you got some time with the kids last night.
What?
Time with the kids.
Give us a rundown of kids from your perspective.
After about 20 minutes, Jensen goes, Jensen goes, so you do this every night?
I was like, why am I so tired?
All we did was drive.
And then you come back to all the kids.
Wow.
Played kickball.
That was really fun.
Oh, yeah, it was Bowen Jensen versus Hattie and me.
And yeah, about every two minutes, Bo and Jensen would get together, put their hands in and go,
one, two, three, tigers.
Every time, every moment we could do it.
No team name for you guys.
No, yeah, we should have.
Yeah, I should have established that.
I did a classic dude thing where I'm trying to make it super fun for the kids,
you know, fire them up.
And, you know, I'm throwing the ball really fast, just past them.
Like, right on the ground in front of them.
Like, I keep missing you.
Oh, my gosh.
Keep running.
Ooh.
And then Bo, Bo was like, Bo go home.
Stop Patty at the.
And I throw it from like the corner of Brad's yard, throw it as hard as I can and just jams, bow's thumb.
Oh, and he just runs to Brad.
And it's 27 degrees.
So, you know, every, every hit stings a little more anyway.
And you could tell he was trying not to cry and just, yeah, classic.
Classic just like, you know, that's that's such an Isaac thing.
Like, yeah, that is.
Just go hard and just be like, what I do it too?
Like it's like, what did I do that for?
Oh, too hard.
He got over it quick.
And then you, like, try to, like, make them feel better by, like, keeping the energy up.
Like, um, but Brad's holding bow.
And I'm like, all right, tigers on three.
He's like, one.
He's a little tigers, though, right?
Tires.
Tires.
Fired him up.
He's good to go.
He's good to go.
So, yeah, give us a, I mean, you haven't seen my kids in a couple years.
Haven't seen me.
I didn't, I didn't, I'd even met Henry.
Henry is a chunk, dude.
He's a big boy.
He's like a lead balloon.
Yeah.
Grabbed him, picked him up.
And I, I've never really.
done this with a kid before, but I picked him up and just like, whoa, it was like almost like a
dumbbell I was holding. Look at the size of this. He's got some thighs on it. And they kind of conceal
in those like flowy pants. And all of a sudden you pick them up. You're like, oh, you're going to
squat. You're going to be a squatter. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Big time. Yeah. Your kids are doing all your
history songs. I'm really impressed at classical Christian education. It is pretty impressive,
isn't it? Like the things they know. Yeah. So cool. Were they singing for you? Are they singing like
presidents and stuff? Yeah, a little too much.
because Catherine is kind of getting a little frustrated.
Haddy was like, can I sing Mr. Jensen a song?
She was like, hmm, perhaps.
I was like, that's the Christian homeschool way of saying no.
She hit him with the perhaps, yeah.
She said, I learned that one time I said maybe to the kids and Bo goes,
maybe means no.
Oh, really?
So now I think Catherine's learned like, I should say perhaps.
Maybe means no.
That's funny.
Yeah, Haddy was trying to sing during dinner.
And Catherine's like, no, eat your dinner.
What was she trying to sing?
some history song like some thing that she learned about i don't even know it's to me honestly
it's in one ear out the other but it sounds educational like do you remember anything they said
honestly no yeah no but it was a lot of information yeah yeah i think it's mostly jingle oriented
as opposed to content i think like they're actually just training musicians yes because katherine
was like remember the song and then all the kids just like william the conqueror yeah whatever they
huh yeah it's it's impressive i'd like to get in on that
honestly
music music is the best way to learn anything in my opinion
like i don't think there's a better way to memorize things than music
like i and i think maybe as an adult you feel like it cheapens it by
but i'm like i'm gonna start memorizing scripture from music i think
because like i think it just sticks with you so like i can remember vbs songs
when i was third grade like because they were like and there was just scripture based on
music. It's like, I don't know. As adults, it's like, well, that's too easy. It's like,
who cares? Who cares how easy or hard it is? Great. It's easy. I can do more. Oh,
yeah, exactly. Okay, perfect. Let's do more of them. So, surely there's someone out
that's given memory verse songs. Yeah, there's a ghosty actually that's in it's a, like a,
yeah, he's like had that as an idea. Like, yeah. That's brilliant. Who is this guy? I got
reach out to. Tom. Tom. Tom. Tom, get on the Facebook group. Yeah, it was Tomcat.
Shout out Tom. T-bone. But, uh, anyway, yeah, have fun times with the kids last night.
I'm trying to remember what all day.
I mean, they just, of course, Jensen wins them over immediately.
They're crazy for Jensen.
They're crazy that I'm home.
And I'm just like, calm down a little bit.
You're freaking them out.
Hey.
Rosie does this thing.
One, two, three tigers.
Rosie does this thing that she walks around, like on her tiptoe, like, weird, like puts
her arms out.
And she says she's acting like, uh, what's his name?
Mr. Tumnus from, uh, line of which in the wardroof?
Yeah.
And she, you know, Rosie has like some speech stuff.
Oh, she's like, I'm Mr. Tomit.
I'm in a time.
Just walking around, just laugh at herself.
I'm like, Jensen.
Jensen was like, you know what?
I think I'm going to go downstairs and call my girlfriend for a little while
while you guys have your, you know, have your bedtime.
There's a lot of mistakes made for the sake of camaraderie between all of us,
where I was like trying to like bring energy so they'd like soften up a little bit.
And then you get to the point of no return with bedtime.
Oh, yeah.
I don't think I'm going to be helping any at this point.
They kept asking.
They're like, can he read to us?
I'm like, no, no, he's got to call his girlfriend.
He's got to call his girlfriend.
He's got to, you know, whatever.
So, no, they were great.
And, like, I love that they have energy with you.
It's great.
So speaking of Narnia, we got an Airbnb in Dallas
this past weekend.
And, I mean, truly, like, in the kitchen,
I was trying to find where the trash was.
So I opened, like, the kitchen cabinets.
And you open it, and it's just a hallway.
It was crazy.
I don't know if they added on or, you know,
I don't flip houses.
Yeah.
I don't have the eye. I don't know how they did this. But it's just that kitchen cabinet just opened. And sure enough, that's like where Isaac's bedroom was. It was like, oh, there's like an extra. But they still had a garage. So it wasn't like they renovated that. I don't know what this used to be. But it's like intentionally like a cabinet that is like a hidden door. Yeah. I mean like the cabinet next to it was the trash can and it looked exactly the same. And then you just go one to the right, double doors. And it's just the hallway. Here's like his own bathroom and his own. That's really cool. So that was pretty sweet. So yeah, he was like in the wardrobe all weekend.
That's definitely like a, like if I built a house, I think that'd be a dream, like,
have like a secret bookshelf, like that goes to some secret room.
I don't even, I don't even know what's going to be back there.
I'm not saying it has to make some like safe room or some like doomsday thing,
but I'm like, it'd just be cool to have like a little lounge or something that like,
you know, you don't know about unless you know about it.
I like thinking about Isaac waking up in that room and just having goat legs.
Whoa.
It's happening.
Uh, uh, oh.
Ooh, I think this tight beat means that it's going down
With some random thoughts in white meat too
Midwest best friends eating fast food on repeat
So come along, let's have some fun and go ahead get on your feet
Because it's a ghost from a podcast
Every month and morning
You're taking ground
Ghost from a podcast
I have a podcast
I have a list on my phone
of dream
like just like weird things I'd want in a house
okay um
urinal
yeah who says no
where like the troth
or just the
I don't think I want trough if I can have it any way I want it
trough seems like the lowest quality of
urinal just a single one
just like a nice solid urinal
I'm in charge of it
yeah just like it's the bathroom that's connected
to the garage like it's like a close one
you know like or would you want it like
master urinal. I don't think it's master urinal. I think it's like it's like a second day. Yeah,
if there's like a basement or if there's a maybe I have an office. Yeah. I don't know.
I like the idea of like being on some land or lakehouse or something like it's just like,
hey, I got to go to the bathroom, but I don't want to like, you know, I'm kind of dirty from being
outside. Let's just run right in here. Pop in the urinal shoot. Yeah. Yeah. So urinal's at the top of the
list. Okay. Slide. You got slide on there. Oh yeah. I have a lot of things. I don't know. I know. I know
Slides not on there. Where do you think a slide goes? From where to where it goes? Just from like,
I have a laundry shoot, which is kind of a slide. I was going to say, I think it should go down to
the laundry room. Like anywhere that's like not as fun to be in like, oh man, I got to go do some
laundry. You remember the show, P.B. and J? The whole had one. And then, I mean, that's how
they got to breakfast every morning. Was through a slide? The bedrooms all had a slide that went
down to the breakfast milk. Really? Yeah. There's a house. Yeah, like Western Shawnee on some
acreage. It's way too expensive for us, but it has a slide and I'm like, that would be awesome.
Yeah. What else you got? What if you could go from, all right, here's my slide idea. I've been trying
to think, where would I slide from? It goes from indoors to the pool. Love it. Yeah. But you got to,
I guess you just have to like shut it somehow. Yeah. Because, man, you're getting your outdoor
pool. You're asking for some some critters coming through there. Those transition months, you got to make
sure that it's fully open. So you're not like. Yeah, it's actually a really bad idea. What?
Also, you know, what about your two-year-old, you know, someday?
This isn't going to work.
This is really bad.
Think about it.
Just think about it.
You'll figure it out.
There isn't the two-year-old.
That's not going to work.
But yeah, laundry shoot.
Even though I think if I could have anything I wanted, the laundry room would be basically my closet.
And then just nothing ever has to shoot across anywhere.
That would be nice.
Yep.
What else?
Pickle Barn.
Sure.
That's been a dream for a while.
Okay.
let's see i oh i have narnia closet in there i don't even know what i mean by that but just maybe yeah
look small is big yes like just small door big room right just expands like where'd this come from
i put trap door trap door did i write this when i was nine i don't know where is it go to like for the
bad guys bad guys for sure front porch yeah yeah here they come don't worry about it yeah that's that's
that's your slide is the trap door where it goes to the slide where's slide goes to the slide
you don't want to know underneath the pool underneath yeah coffee table with
refrigerator you ever seen that wait no like yeah yeah yeah like yeah yeah coffee table like in
your living room rather than standing up and going to the kitchen to grab a drink right there
oh I see oh I see yeah yeah yeah there's just like two drawers and it's like it plugs in
it's like a plugged in refrigerator I've heard of like or I've seen like cooler I'm adding that's
the list yeah put ice in there but like that's pretty fun you don't have to leave you see yeah
no Rosa Parks that's right
that's right if we're on the topic of not leaving your seat i thought i could say rosea parks
if we're on the topic of yeah Rosa parks in your house yeah being Rosa parks would be sick
yeah what was he going to say oh some type of contraption
where you can go the bathroom in your recliner you have to leave your seat go the bathroom
in your recliner okay or or just make your toilet more comfortable yeah or just get a leather
back to your toilet yeah and maybe have like have like have a
some stuff. Like, have a TV in your bathroom. Would that be too much to ask for? I don't think so.
That's not insane. We're doing a trapdoor. I'm talking about a large tub with a TV right above it.
Who says no? You're just lying there, just watching some Monday Night Football. Remember Ruby Tuesdays
would have the TVs on the floor? Oh, remember that? O, we walk out. Ours with Red Robin had that.
It was like, oh, yeah, that's so cool. The TV's right there. In the floor? Like, when you walk in?
There was like a hole in the floor with like a hard plastic on top of it.
Like a glass bottom boat.
Yeah, but like, and the plastic was always like really scuffed up.
So you couldn't even see the TV.
Oh, it just scratched glass.
At least ours was Red Robin.
Oh.
That's what was yours, Red Robin too.
Okay.
Yeah.
It's like our Ruby Tuesday didn't have that.
Man.
What a, what a time.
We lived in a great time where like the mid level, you know, bar and grill just reigns supreme, you know.
at the Applebee's, Chili's, Ruby Tuesday, TGI Friday, Red Robin, you know, those aren't,
those aren't doing too well right now. On the border. Yeah, there you go. You know, Johnny,
Johnny Carino's. Shout out to Johnny. You guys have those. I don't know about Johnny's. Okay.
We got Deweys. Dewies, dude. Doey's pizza. Doey's pizza. Doey's pizza's doing all right still.
What about Dickies? That's kind of that same thing. The garage thing. Oh.
What? It's a garage.
might have said. What do you mean by the garage thing? Yeah, I throw like one open down a, like
93rd of Metcalf, whatever. I thought it was dicky. It's like kind of garage themed. It seems very
like fast casual. Sickies. Honestly, six out of seven letters though. Yeah. Pretty close.
You can add that to your list, garage, like golf sim garage. Or just garage. Just garage.
It'd be nice to have a garage to park it. I had parked indoors and, I mean, for most of my life.
That would be nice to have big garage. Full disclosure, I was driving up when we got in from the
pheasant hunt
on the
street run
into Brad's
where you're at
and I saw
the Bondi
Bulls truck
I just
oh
dang
yeah there it is
we had some
trick-or-treaters
ask about it
and yeah
it's just like
no it's not open
you got rid of that
granola
did you have like a
bunch of granola
oh yeah
we had 100 pounds
of it
an endless supply
but yeah
we gave a bunch out
at major oysters
and just slowly
giving away to people
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
Back to the list, I got Murphy Bed.
Oh, is that a waterbed?
Yeah.
Oh, no, no, that's a thing that folds up.
Yeah, no, sorry.
I mean, it's kind of, kind of.
Yeah, a little.
Rectangular.
Yeah.
A water bed, like, already has the name built in.
Oh, I bet you called it something completely different.
What if it's a Murphy bed, it's a water bed?
Oh, it's heavy.
That thing would happen.
And all of a sudden, just the water just goes to the, yeah.
bottom of it.
Water beds were a nightmare for chubby little kids.
I'll just say that right now.
Hard to get in and out of.
Oh my gosh.
Yeah, you're in.
You're never getting out.
I feel like I knew of one kid ever.
He was like an only child, rich kid.
He had the waterbed.
I thought it was the coolest thing in the world.
Never saw another one again.
Brand.
Wow.
I want to know if there's anybody out there that currently has a water bed in their house.
Because I think we're all on the same page, like firm good, water, probably bad.
to sleep on.
It can't be good.
What's worse than a water bed?
What's like the worst substance
you can put on it?
Truly.
Did an adult ever have a water bed
or was that always a kid thing?
I mean,
an air mattress has to be
five times better than a water bed.
Yeah.
Like there's no way more than one person
is sleeping on a water bed, correct?
What do you do?
You're just like catapulting each other
all night.
Yeah, it's like a blob.
Yeah, it is.
Blab on.
Blab on.
Everyone's just squishing a.
Ford?
Yeah.
Blahaw.
Dude.
Murphy beds are sweet.
Murphy bed,
yeah.
And it sounds like this list
is for like a dream home,
yet I'm still conserving space.
Like,
no,
we'll still obviously need to put that away.
Yeah.
To make room for the trap door.
That's right.
They'd probably go hand in hand.
That has the trap door.
You're all.
Okay.
This is in the same realm.
I need to add to this.
This says secret passage.
I think I want to put secret passage,
comma like revolving book shelves okay revolving or you know what I mean like straight from the movies
like pull this book correct yes and then the whole thing it's like a 180 thousand percent
like not only is there another side of this bookshelf I guess but also like that is how you enter
the other room yeah secret room I guess yeah almost like it didn't have to revolve actually
another thing about it just like some secret door somewhere that takes me to a secret place it just
opens yeah yeah yeah it doesn't have to revolve that's what about what about if you had like
I mean, this is a dream house, so we can get crazy.
Some kind of secret tunnel to another house.
Like, it doesn't have necessarily be your neighbor's house or your parents that live on the property.
Whatever.
It can be anything, but it could just be like a shed, like or something or the pool house or whatever.
Like a, like a, some underground day prepper.
Maybe.
Yeah.
We kind of share the space.
He already kind of had it built in 2020 and so we kind of add on to it.
I just think it's really cool the idea of like, like we were kind of talking about this last night, got down all these rabbit holes.
Jensen's been bowling in the White House.
I've heard they have a bowling alley there.
Pretty crazy. We can get back to that.
Yeah.
But like this idea, like, we were talking to somebody else on the trip who was also very familiar
with the White House.
And, yeah, it's like, there's a lot of different tunnels down there and lots of different
ways to get in.
I like that.
National Treasure 2, they touched on this a bit in the secret tunnel.
That's what it was.
Yeah.
Secret lies with Charlotte.
That's right.
You got to get a pipe.
And then it'll unlock the big doors.
This guy, this guy was like, yeah.
Press the E and the L twice.
There's a, there's tunnels down there that are big enough to drive.
driver car through. I like that.
Pretty sick. Yeah. I like that. So.
War of 1812. White House burned down.
Still to this day, when you go to the White House, you can still see char marks on the marble
they built on. I like that too. That's awesome.
Char marks. Char marks. Chars are.
What else you got? Um, heated floors. Yeah. I think as long as Rachel's my wife,
I need to make that happen for her at some point. Yeah. So not everywhere, but at least like
Bathroom.
That's what we have, we have it in our bathroom.
Okay.
And it's not, if you're redoing your bathroom, it's not very expensive.
Like, depending on how big your, obviously if your bathroom is larger, it costs more.
But I think for our bathroom, it was like $250 for these things.
And you have to like obviously have somebody install them in the labor and everything.
Yeah, okay, okay.
But like, product.
Yeah, you buy it on Amazon for, you know, it's just per square foot or whatever.
But, yeah.
Oh, maybe I will do the whole house then.
I'm already getting a urinal.
We're clearly splurging.
We're already going wild on it.
Yeah.
We've got a Murphy waterbed, so...
Yeah.
That just sounds fun.
Is that what you got?
Heated floors.
I put a bidet.
Okay.
Yeah.
Just, let's not forget what we like.
Would you put it everywhere?
Like, is it that good?
Why not?
Yeah.
I don't know.
Yeah.
Those are also...
Reasonable priced, I think, these days.
It gets an easy ad on.
Some of this, I must have been going through a phase because some of this, I don't even know
what it means anymore.
I must have, like, read...
Okay.
An article.
Sun tunnel.
Oh.
Sun tunnel.
I don't know what that means.
But in October of 2024, I wanted some.
A sun tunnel.
Kind of like a green room, maybe.
Like a hallway that's like all like that.
Humidified.
I have seen like a green house.
A house that like has a, yeah, kind of.
That's what I'm thinking.
It's like a greenhouse.
Two different words for the same thing.
Yeah.
You call it a greenhouse.
I called a sun tunnel.
It connects your garage to your house
But it's just all windows
360
And a lot of plants maybe too
That sounds great
I'm gonna ride down to greenhouse
Just in case that is different than Sun Tunnel
Okay
Just in case someday you remember what Sun Tunnel
Yeah if I'm able to look that up
I put mud room
Never had one
It seems nice
As long as we're doing whatever we want
Just that little extra space
That's where the urinal goes
Why not?
Yeah
The whole thing's one big urinal
Uh huh
Mud pee
it all goes down
Slop room
What about fireman's pole?
Yeah,
pole's good.
Fireman's pole
is like
if you can't have a slide
you get it
Well,
I don't know.
What's better?
They both sound fun.
One would be faster
for sure.
You'd also have to worry
about the two-year-old
on the fireman's pole,
FYI.
They could fall down
that hole pretty quick.
And gripping it.
Gripping that,
yeah.
So.
Yeah, both.
fun. I don't know what I, this one seems very practical. All these others are just like
fun, whatever. I put tankless water heater. Oh, good for you. I don't even know what that is.
Why did I write that down? Is that really nice? I don't know how like expensive they are, but they are
awesome. Okay, so I probably just read something. Because it's like, you have to have this. Yeah,
instantly. Instantly. Oh, that's what it is. Yes. Yeah. Well, I'm glad I wrote it down. I was kind
of embarrassed to say that. Well, thank goodness that's coming soon. I'm glad that's on the way. And I don't
think it'll ever run out. The idea is like it'll always, you can have as much hot water as you
need. I'm so glad I wrote that down. I'm so glad it's coming. Yeah. I put high basement
ceilings. I think I was in a basement one time, whereas high ceilings is like, it doesn't feel like
I'm in a basement. Yeah. I like how this feels. Okay. That's how my sister's house is. It is nice.
Yeah. It's huge. Probably a little more expensive, but you're fine. You're putting the urinal.
We're already digging in there. I mean, dig four more feet. That's what I'll tell them. That's
basically it okay but that's it
it's just that's all it is yeah that's all it is
zipline
oh right down's this line
what's the Tim Robinson skit
feel like you're just here for the zip line
you know Rachel's folks
have a zipline they go to themselves
it goes I mean it's pretty lengthy
especially for like a bog and
version of a zipline like a hillbilly like
I mean it's decent it's like
I don't know
120 yards probably over a pond
oh shoot so you can let go in the pond
or you just have someone like have a towel like waiting to like catch you two people with a towel like waiting to like you know catch you a few times yeah oh baby things that i think of when i think of ghosties crushing ghosties crush jingles ghosties crush that comment section ghosties crush hearts sometimes like ghosty island some people you know they're crushing on each other something else that ghosties crushed last year fundraising for mate
Healing Waters International, the main campus.
Yeah, we can't all crush it at the same time.
The main street of campus for Healing Waters.
No, we raised over $14,000 last year collectively as Ghosties for families in Mexico.
That's amazing.
That's, I mean, it's just so cool to think about the impact that we made there.
This year we're teamed up with Healing Waters again, 25K and 25, no, sorry, 50K and 50 days.
Yep.
It's only going to take 25K.
Only raising 25, yeah.
The need's even more urgent because we're raising it for Haiti.
And Haiti is in this unimaginably hard season right now.
You know, there's the hurricane Melissa that just came through.
But along with that, there's all these gangs that are essentially running the country.
Families are trying to flee away.
There's all these issues.
But safe water is not that easy for them.
And that's another issue.
So we're trying to help move and move.
what's the word uh partner alongside of healing waters and provide sustainable water solutions
um to Haiti so they've got such a good you know kind of just like organization and then set up
and all they need is just more funds to to make things happen so um we would be part of that like
brett said people are going to match it also when you donate you are entered to win uh prizes that
we're going to give away next month so uh going to be a handful of some some minor prizes that will
about, but as we've kind of teased, there is one grand prize, which is fly you out to Kansas City
and get a full just like Ghostrunners Day experience. Yeah, awesome. Yeah, we can. Bada b'am. So,
I'm not, I'm not trying to make anybody feel bad about X, Y, Z, but just think about the purchases
you've made in the last 24 hours and think, could I save, you know, could I not get that coffee next time
and put that money towards this instead? Every donation counts. I think I know people who have,
who donate a lot of money to things.
And I think the main, they believe the main solution is micro donations.
You know, it's just everybody putting in some money is so much more effective, so much more
sustainable.
So if you'd like to help, go to give.healingwaters.org slash ghosties 2025.
You can see our progress on there.
We're going 50K in 50 days.
We're going to do it.
I believe in this.
I believe the Lord can work through it.
So give.
Nothealingwaters.org slash ghosties 2025.
What about this like a,
at least one, if not three, you know, little golf holes.
For on some land.
Golf hole.
Or maybe even just a nice,
I like the idea if you got land,
either some kind of skeet shooting or like,
yeah, what's it called?
Driving Range, like something like that would be fun.
Just like use that land back there for something.
Yeah.
Full size football field.
Yeah, so basically we're just doing Mahomes' house.
Have you told the story on the podcast about Jordan algae?
Can't.
Oh, really?
Oh, not NDA.
Yeah, yeah.
That's great.
Too much of an NDA on that one.
No problem.
Truman did say, so Truman on this trip, he said that he went to a wedding or a party or
something at the neighbor of Mahomes' house, and so he was like in the backyard for this,
reception or whatever and Brittany Mahomes is back there watering her plants and he's not mean he's like
he's like I tell this story all the time and no one believes me because they're like there's no way
she waters her own plants he's like I don't know what to tell you but he's like I talk to her
oh yeah I believe that yeah unbelievable I can't believe it she waters her own plants
mulch and stuff there's no what aiden believes that she knows where Taylor Swift and
Travis Kelsey my girlfriend believes that she knows where Travis Kelsey
and Taylor Swift are getting married. And when? Right. Am I allowed to say NDA? No. I can say it
June 13th. Why is she, why she have this? So she has a friend that this is, this is like,
I don't know why I'm getting nervous. Like Taylor Swift's going to find out that I'm talking about
this. I think this is, my rank, I want to hear your rank of how confident you are that this
is true. My rank is 71%. Oh, you feel pretty good about this. Yeah, it's maybe even a little bit
generous, to be honest. But go ahead. Okay. Jensen is. So Aiden has a friend.
that lives in Rhode Island.
Taylor Swift has a house in Rhode Island.
This friend is,
nope, let me back up, skib it up.
Aidan has a friend that's getting married
in Rhode Island.
Taylor Swift has a house in Rhode Island.
Where this friend is getting married
in Rhode Island is a stone throw away,
rock throw, away from-speed of sound away.
Break his sound barrier, you get there in point,
05.
This wedding venue is stone throws away from
Taylor Swift's house in Rhode Island.
Okay.
They were approached by a couple, this friend of Aden's,
was approached by a couple to say,
can we have it on this date?
And if you agree to this,
we'll give you $40,000 for your honeymoon.
Whoa.
And evidently, the 13th is a number significant to Taylor Swift.
Okay.
Does that make sense?
That's correct.
Yeah.
Oh, the 13th thing.
And the date that they want is the 13th of June.
June.
It's the only Saturday.
That's the 13th.
So, rape by Taylor Swift's house, the couple offered $40,000.
How certain are you that is true?
Have any follow-up questions?
I did look real quick, and it does seem like,
because I think you hear rumors all the time,
like, you know, they've got a house over here.
That was the first thing I wanted to fact check.
Okay.
Seems like this is pretty legit.
It's well documented that she does have a house in Rhode Island.
So far, so good.
Okay.
After that, no further questions, I guess.
The 13th, do you think it's that big of a deal for her?
get married on the 13th?
Yeah, I wouldn't have thought that on my own,
but now that you mentioned it, it's like,
oh, yeah, of course.
Really?
Yeah, 50s will love that.
Yeah.
You, 13th.
Put me down for 70.
30.
71.
Right there with you.
I was going to say, that's what I said, dude.
It's awesome.
They're topping my answers, dude.
So, let's just.
I am a little confused, though.
Who gave who $40,000?
Supposedly.
So Aden's friend was going to get married in Taylor Swift's backyard.
And I mean, the hypothesis is that Taylor Swift, Travis Kelsey said,
we'll give you $40,000 for your honeymoon if you let us have that weekend.
If you switch dates.
Yeah.
Or just get off that date.
Maybe not switch, but get off.
I think at that point you bargain.
You're like, $40,000?
Not enough.
Make it, make it a hundo.
And it's all yours.
Or invitation.
Don't give us 40, invite us.
just to see who it is.
Because if they're willing to give you $40,000,
then it's probably going to be a sweet wedding and reception.
Do you think this girl is also very wealthy?
Like if she's getting married in this spot?
Has to.
Yeah, right?
Rhode Island?
Yeah.
You don't know anything about Rhode Island,
but it does feel like if you live there,
you either have a lot of money
or you're from Rhode Island originally.
Politicians, they don't do like on,
like, you know,
you think politicians whenever they campaign,
they go from like town to town do like meetings
and whatever big, big events, rallies.
Rhode Island politicians, they go door to door because it's so small.
What?
Yep.
Is that true?
Look it up.
It feels less small.
I try to like fight myself because in my head it's a neighborhood.
I know Rhode Island is bigger than that.
Yeah.
Rhode Island population is 1.1 million.
That's a lot of houses, gents.
You feel good about it?
But someone's, uh, what's the region?
Yeah.
Like if they're like a house of representatives.
Yeah.
Like they go to a section.
They're,
You know what I'm saying.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Their district.
District.
Thank you.
Jerrymandering.
Yeah.
Rhode Island is approximately 400,000 households.
400,000.
That's how I may.
But divide it by four.
Oh, yeah, four districts.
Then, okay.
If you're traveling, speed of sound.
Might have by four and then divide that by 365.
And it's only like, I don't know, 300 houses day.
All day every day.
Yeah, it's just like seven or eight per minute.
Uh-huh.
Hey, I hope you get a support.
Yeah.
The guy who's been the senator for Iowa for a hundred years, Chuck Grassley, he's still, like he's like 88 or something.
He visits every county in Iowa every year.
That is amazing.
Which is, yeah, it's like impressive, but also that at least seems like doable.
Right.
But it would take a lot of time.
Yeah.
That's what they do, man.
That's what they do.
That's what those guys do.
They love it.
So yeah, Jensen, tell us about bowling of the White House.
If you want.
I had a buddy that was, he started doing the mail for Melania Trump in their first term.
And then kind of like, what do you mean doing the mail?
Well, they like receive mail.
You know, like you think of like little kids writing like letters to the president, the first lady.
And so I think that he's in charge of that or maybe the correspondence.
Yeah.
I wonder if that's so offensive to like what he actually does.
I wonder if it's like, it's just mail room guy.
I received like very important letters
I'm talking to delegates from Saudi Arabia
I don't sort through fan mail
He puts his back where his bees backwards
So he like deciphers like what he's trying to say
To President Trump
I hope that's true
Or I'm really gassing him up where he's just the mail room guy
Just pushing around just pushing cards
He's like no actually
Sorting would be a promotion
I don't get to sort
You don't actually get to touch the mail
I touch the carts
Yeah
So does he have a like does his dad work in mail
Or a grandfather working postage or how did he get in the mail?
How did he get in the mail?
Yeah, it's in the DNA.
Big male.
I actually don't know, but I know he's involved with politics in Florida and then eventually
went on to D.C. got a job with the White House and then made his way up to like personal
assistant of Trump in his first presidency.
Sorry, getting political.
Oh, wow.
Which camera are we on right now?
Oh, sorry.
Boop.
Boop.
Be boop pop.
Skittlipip.
And then eventually got to be the president's personal assistant where he would like
deliver the daily briefings and that sort of thing.
So one day they were having like a staff party and invited everyone to the bowling alley.
And you go to the Eisenhower building, go down elevator, take a right, boiler room, go past that,
walk in a little kitchenette wall of bowling shoes.
They had size 14 for me.
Okay.
All right.
It's out there.
They had my huge shoes.
Six floor.
and yeah you walk in big wall of shoes kitchenette and everyone was like bringing in snacks drinks all
that it's like is this allowed and then eventually like it led to just a good night of bowling
some of the staffers got a little crazy started like dancing on the bowling alley I'm like I don't
feel like this is allowed this is like sacred ground it's like twerking in the oval office but they did
it they were comfortable with whatever so yeah I think it's kind of crazy though to be like yeah
I don't know.
There's just certain times
where it's just like
there's not very many people
who have even been to this area
like even just going into the White House
I don't know how easy it is to do that
but I know you guys have both been there.
What you got was it like
are you able to like do like public tours
or is it like a
I don't know.
I don't know much about the White House at all.
You have to get an invite from your car
like Chuck Grassley has to let you in.
You do have to do that for the West Wing.
For the West Wing you have to kind of like know somebody.
So because my buddy was doing like
private tours of the West.
swing then I was able to get in and he gave me a little tour really small the west wing very small
like honestly about this yeah about the size about the size this house but I mean this small house
yeah it's really tiny yeah but yeah honestly like yeah and then like you can literally pivot where
it's like that's the rest of the white house pivot there's like a little work room couple of offices
pivot again situation room and then a little Diet Coke machine right it right outside the situation
Not even a vending machine, just a Diet Coke machine.
For Trump.
Is it a fountain?
Yeah, a fountain.
One of those like freestyle machines, but it says like Diet Coke on it.
Oh, freestyle.
Yeah.
I question Trump just on the freestyle thing, man.
You need to get dedicated pumps for each of them, man.
I am going to write in my house thing, dedicated pumps.
Yeah, dedicated pumps.
I know what that means later.
Dedicated pumps for the sun tunnels.
Yeah.
That's, that's, so he's like, he's got his own.
Did you notice?
I'm so curious that the freestyle,
you think it has like customization,
like you can add lime to the Diet Coke?
No,
because there's one of the smaller ones.
You know,
there's the big ones.
It's like a personal pan pizza of Coke freestyle.
Exactly.
It looked like a pizza oven
that would sit on a counter,
but this one was like square
rather than rectangular.
Yeah,
a little smaller one that can sit on the,
yeah,
exactly.
Oh, interesting.
Yeah.
Okay.
Situation room.
That's crazy.
Yeah.
Yeah,
you went with Dimchak, maybe?
It was,
uh,
it was like Dimchak.
checks like great uncle it was like the um what was his title like the chief of staff chief of staff
yeah i forgot what it was it was like a very official term i don't know whatever he was something
majority whip could be yeah one of those like one of those vocab words yeah secretary could have
been involved key grip key grip yeah lighting yeah mechanic gaffer but so yeah he just gave us like a
personal tour and i don't remember what we saw i just remember being confused like as a kid you think it's just like
just a white house. It's like, well, no, you got to go across the line. And this is like
another building. But we're still in the white house. I'm like, no, we're not. That's the white
house that's white. So I don't really still even understand. Yeah, part of me is like, I'm okay
like having the mystery. Like it's like, I don't know. I've seen some TV shows where they
reenact it. That's cool enough for me. Yeah. Like part of me doesn't want to know exactly how
big and whatever. But also, if anybody ever asks, I'll say yes to going. Yeah. So let's play a
game called, What Would You Rather See?
Okay.
Inside of the Oval Office or the Pyramids of Giza, Egyptian Pyramids.
Just the outside of them?
Just the outside of them.
Pyramids.
Ah, yeah.
Even though that's like way easier to see, right?
I mean, anybody can do that.
Yeah.
You've seen them.
Both.
What do you choose?
Giza.
Yeah.
Really?
I did four wheelers around the pyramids.
Oh, tell that story about those kids.
Is that?
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
So back in February, I did a YM.
Dude, tell that thing.
Don't do, don't, don't.
Yeah, back in February, I did a YMCA trip.
And towards the end of it, we had like one day left before our flights went out.
And we did four-wheeler rides around the pyramids.
And there was like this little area, kind of like a little commerce area with like horses getting ready, four-wheelers.
and like kind of loaded up negotiated a price started to head out towards these gates where they let you out into the desert because pretty much pyramids it's like Cairo is just so like dense population so many things but then once you get to the pyramids desert and so once you go past the gates it's like wilderness really yeah and so we're driving out there and we're thinking we can just go as fast as we can like the auto
Desert. Yeah, exactly. But they have these little 14-year-old kids riding on the front.
So their butt is like where your hands are at, like right in front of the steering.
They go with you? Yes. And if you're going too fast, they grab your hands and slow down the thing.
So I'm like flying past the pyramids going up like sand dudes. And I went a little too fast in time when the boys just
turning it down a little bit. Yeah. That was too big of a jump. Yeah. And it's scary because like
Some of these are like janked.
I mean, not nice four-wheeler's.
And so you'd like get to a sand dune, turn a corner, and then you lose the rest of the group.
And if you stop fully, the thing shuts off.
And so if you lose your guide, then you're cooked.
You know where to go.
So one time I had to get rescued.
They had to come back for me.
I was like trying to find my way.
I was going up sand dunes looking around.
And then eventually the little kids.
You're like riding up the pyramids.
Where'd you guys go?
I needed a better view.
do that's cool i don't think i have any grasp of how big those pyramids are or like how
amazing it is so i think i would definitely like to see those but i also don't love traveling in
an airplane like that sounds annoying to get there so if i could get teleported there that'd be
ideal you would choose teleported to the pyramids i think so yeah okay next round and this also
is for both of you it does include teleportation thank you um
teleported to
Japan
or teleported to
the Great Wall of China
Ooh
Great Wall
Yeah
Yeah that's that's nuts
And so old
So old
See it from space
Allegedly
Yeah
Maybe you can see space
From the
Whoa
I do Tokyo
Would you?
Yeah
Japan
Japan
I don't know
I haven't heard
a lot of first-hand stories
about the Great Wall of China
it's like you kind of
hear things about all these different
but I've heard things
about the pyramids
before I've heard things
about Mount Rushmore
and how no one says
to ever go see it
I haven't heard a single thing
about the Great Wall of China
I don't know if anyone's been
I know the Huns has been there
is possible to go
I know I think it is pretty touristy
yeah but I don't know anything about it
do people ever do like
you know how they do the Appalachian Trail
do people ever do like the Great Wall
Trail
Mongolian Trail
do they
maybe a marathon
start at one end just run
run alongside of it
like a turkey trot
how long is that thing
like a what would their version be
a turkey trot they would be
a dog trot a pigeon
a pigeon walk
dog trot
yeah
it would yeah it would just be
it'd be a turkey walk
a W-O-K
yeah walk
how long is
Great Wall of China
did no way
do you have any of guesses
way hundred miles way more no did you look it up no this is going to be like one of those small
intestine yeah i'd say yeah i was going to say like 300 miles dude you're you're not even close
13,000 miles what wait i'm sorry 131171 miles isn't it like a like a thousand to get from like
one coast of America to the other?
I was going to say,
I thought the earth was only like
30 something thousand miles in diameter.
Put the length of Great Wall of China
into Great Wall of China
into perspective for an American.
I'm asking chatty.
Yeah.
It's about the same as driving from New York to Los Angeles
and back five times.
Or if you drove the entire,
wall at 65 miles an hour with no stops it would take you over eight days straight a flight from
new york to london's about 3,500 miles so the great wall is like flying that trip almost four times in a row
it's almost half the circumference of the earth and then they we're all just in silence like
they love they love the american you know football field a football field's 100 yards so you'd need
about 230,000 football field I think that's the worst that does yeah it's like a jumbo
jet. That doesn't help.
Yeah. Elephant. Football field, no thanks.
If you ran one field every 10 seconds, which pretty fast, it take you over 26 days to run the wall.
So I still don't understand that half their circumference of the earth thing.
I mean, it's not a straight line, obviously.
They zig.
They zig when there's Zach.
Wouldn't that just be the radius, half the circumference?
Good. No, you're thinking diameter.
Oh, shoot.
So close, though.
So close.
We got to get Pye involved for circumference.
Yeah.
Would you like me to write that in a funny short script style?
Like something you can say to YouTube skitter short?
Yes, please.
Here we are.
And then we're going to all perform it together, okay?
Oh, man.
Okay.
You give each of us a part?
Yeah.
That's a long wall.
I heard that if you stacked all of your red blood cells on top of each other, they would
make it all the way to Mars.
No.
That's why it's the red state.
You were right there.
The red state.
Yeah, they voted for Trump.
Elon.
That's funny.
Now we're back.
Now we're back.
All right.
Quickly, I'm going, how did the Chinese?
Oh, no, this is fun.
If you start searching, how did the Chinese, you get some fun suggestions.
How did the Chinese come to America?
That's funny.
How did they make gunpowder?
How did they discover gunpowder?
How did they invent gunpowder?
Okay, we're really searching that.
How did the Chinese Exclusion Act in?
Okay, anyway, build the Great Wall of China.
Oh, you have a script for us?
I have a script.
I'm going to look up, I'm going to say,
give me what the two characters' personalities are going to be.
Thank you.
Give me some quirky personality traits for each of the characters.
Be specific.
All right.
So before I read these, who's going to be character one?
Who's going to be character two?
I'll be character two.
I'll be number one.
All right.
Great.
All right.
So friend number one, that's Jake.
He's the overreactor.
His vibe is emotionally invested in the dumbest details.
Every fact sounds like a personal attack.
He's dramatically lazy.
Talks big, does nothing.
He's a sarcastic patriot.
Always tries to translate everything into American terms,
Miles, football fields, Big Macs, etc.
you're comically confident in nonsense you'll confidently guess the great wall is like maybe 80 miles
just kind of funny because you're 200 you're an expressive eater so this is not you at all
catchphrase style bro that's so unnecessary that's not a wall that's a personality disorder stuff
like that they're giving me so much to work with i can't even go off script i already have a script
here i know um let's just say okay let's just say what accents should they both have i'll just say
that. I'll do
Chinese. Dips on
Chinese. Asian.
Accent choice totally changes the flavor of the comedy.
Okay. Oh, slight
southern slash Midwest bro accent for you, Jake.
It's Nashville meets Kansas
City. You're saying
stuff like bro, nah, dude, but
also ain't no way.
All right? Got it.
All right. While you, Jensen, are going to be a mildly
nerdy delivery of a neutral
American, deadpan Midwest or
Pacific Northwest tech guy.
Flat-toned,
and Midwest.
Slightly nasal,
very matter of fact.
Okay.
So I think we set the scene with that.
Two friends on a couch eating chips
watching a documentary.
And scene.
Daggum.
Great Wall of China is 13,000 miles long?
I care about the detail.
Yeah.
Yeah, dude.
That's like from New York to L.A.
I'm back.
Daggum.
That's insane.
Five times.
Okay, daggum.
That's stupid.
Who needs that much wall?
Bro, if you drove it at 65 miles an hour, no stops,
and at the speed of sound,
take over eight days straight.
Eight daggum days.
I can't even do a road trip to Nashville
without threatening to move out.
What?
What?
It's also the radius of the earth.
Half the...
Dagum, bro.
That's not a wall.
That's a lifestyle.
Dude, why...
Who wrote this for me?
This is awful.
My script sucks.
Can we pivot so that I can be Asian for the rest of the time?
Yeah.
Okay.
Yeah.
If you tried to walk it, six hours a day, it take over a year.
No?
A dagum year?
Yeah, no.
Nah.
I'd quit after the first Starbucks run.
Also, its length of 230,000 football fields.
Okay, now I daggum care.
That's like the entire NFL's dreams lined up end to end.
Yeah, but only one of them could actually build it under budget.
They both nod solemnly, crunching chips.
So what you're saying is,
the Great Wall of China is daggum basic.
a giant road trip, you'd never survive. Exactly. But no Buckeys. What a, what an ending.
Throw Buckeys in there and all of a sudden it's very good. Our jobs are secure. As long as we
stay in comedy, our jobs are secure. Because what did it ask you? Do you want me to write a short
comedy script? Yes. Yeah, the question was... My character is a real piece of work. Yeah. Would you
like me to write that in a funny short script style? Like something you could say in a YouTube skit or short?
because I guess at one point I did say like hey what can you help me with the YouTube video
yeah yeah accent was good thank you $100 for free for you what huh seriously who
hundred dollars who I like a who said that can I'm trying to figure out the guy who said that it was
wait open your eyes it was me oh my gosh working as a vessel on behalf of good ranchers they want
to give you a hundred dollars back if you place an order right now you're going to $100 off your
first three orders and free expedited shipping and a free meat add-on for life. So as long as you're
subscriber of the best meat subscription box company in the world that sources everything right here
in America, American farmers, American ranchers, American packaging, American FedEx trucks. Everyone's
helping everybody. You support them. You subscribe to a box. You're going to get so much added on,
so much value. So delicious meat. Yeah. It's surely
so good. Anytime we show it to people, they can't believe how, like, organic and, like,
you know, healthy it is. Like, there's nothing to it. It's just the meat. And that's the way we
were intended to eat things. Correct. So it's great. We had cheeseburger meatballs, a staple that
we haven't had in a while at our house. Wagoo beef on those cheesburger. Wagoo beef on those cheeseburger,
and once again, I'm not making it up. Zero leftovers, always. Oh, yeah. They're just,
they're just that good. Another thing, if you're a parent out there,
Really anybody, but it's so nice to have meals that are just quick, go-to, but also guilt-free.
The seed oil-free chicken nuggets that they have, you can get a six-pack of them.
That's our favorite.
Yeah, just the bags of chicken nuggets where it's like, I don't know what we're doing for dinner
tonight.
I don't know what we're having for lunch.
Boom.
Throw those in.
They're ready in 20 minutes.
Truly, because there's not even like, you don't need to season.
You don't need to do anything.
No.
Just heat them up.
Correct.
And you have a delicious dinner.
And if you're out there wondering and worrying about the price,
As a as someone who frequents Chick-fil-A as well, I'll say this way cheaper.
I'll just say that.
Yeah.
I'll say it.
Way more affordable than like fast food chicken is going to be.
And like I would say very on par with whatever grocery store you're probably getting it at.
You're getting way like better, bigger seed oil free.
Yeah.
Add to free.
You know, buy-free.
It's just that good.
So they got it all.
They got beef.
They got pork.
They got chicken.
They got seafood.
Chick-fil-A offers a lifetime meat guarantee.
Right.
Oh, they do?
Yeah.
Wait.
No, they don't.
They don't do. They don't do that anymore.
They've never done that. Long Johns. LJs. LJs. LJ.S.
LJ. Depa. Silver's. Yeah. No. I think it's just, it's just good ranchers that does the add on for life, which is...
Maybe it's Arby's, I was thinking about it. No, it's not, dude.
Are you sure? No, I'm not. Because I'm not familiar with Arby's, because once I've had good rangers, I don't ever go to those swill places anymore.
Kind of blind eye. Correct. You take advantage all these offers by using the promo code GRKC.
welcome to the table good ranchers.com
I'm sure you saw that
Trump was at the commander's game
did you see this? Oh I did see that yeah something about that
so we're watching the game and Trump's up there and we can't
really hear the announcers very well we can't hear what he's saying
but Jensen and I I believe both of us do a pretty good
Trump impression we were on fire we were we were having a little podcast over
there by ourselves I bet commanders incredible commanders I'm the commander in chief
this is incredible though you know like lions great military we could have a lot of lions
we love our troops but lions might be great i mean and i would say as far as a reaction goes
one out of ten like barely any no one cares barely anything and then this guy that's in charge of
this big ministry tries terrible accent everyone starts laughing i would say maybe we have great
Back to the side of the bar.
We're hilarious.
We're killing it over here.
It's incredible.
We're killing it.
Bad impression.
And I mean, and luckily, Jensen and I enjoyed it enough doing it ourselves that I don't think we cared that no one else reacted.
But it was like, come on.
There's a bone.
There's like 10 of us here.
We're providing some great content and people did not love it.
That is funny.
Yeah.
Especially when you notice it.
It's okay if you don't laugh at me.
Yeah.
But don't all of a sudden laugh at the first thing this guy.
says it was consistent it was wild how so bad his impersonation was it was it was almost just
like he was talking just a I mean just gravelly but it wasn't even it wasn't even close and and his
his content was nothing I like football it's like football is great that's still too good of an
impersonation oh that was that was us yeah oh it was great it was it was just like I like I like
football and they're gonna they're gonna play football in America oh
It just and I were just like over in the corner being like,
we're making jokes.
Very bad.
Terrible impression.
Debo Samuel, great guy, great cans, incredible hands.
I have better hands, bigger hands.
You know, like we're just going nuts over you.
Debo bad, Tebow, great.
Debo, yeah.
We were killing it.
That sounds funny.
Yeah.
Debo bad, Tebow, great.
Were you, were you, I don't, did you go to bed,
before the Jacksonville news came up on the screen the other night?
Yeah, I went to bed.
You did?
I don't remember this, yeah.
Oh, dude.
What happened?
So, we were watching Sunday night football, and, you know, they don't have cable,
and so they logged into somebody's YouTube TV, and it's one of our buddies, Eric, who's from
Jacksonville.
So he logs into his account, and so after football was on, the local Jacksonville News was on,
and it was like, it was one of those things where, like, you hear these funny things about
Florida.
Florida man.
Oh, yeah, exactly.
I told them about the Florida man thing.
where you just Google, you know, Florida man in your birthday and you can find these ridiculous
things. It was like, it was like one punchline after another. First of all, I mean, I saw this woman
that's the Sunday night weather woman and we made some funny comments about her. And initially I was
like, oh, this must be the South Dakota news. Like this looks like a South Dakota weather woman. Not
not the prettiest. Like it's like an AI rendering, you know, twice removed of like the actual person.
Like, it was like, you look like a nice lady, you're trying.
You know, but it's like not, not the most beautiful woman in the world.
And then all of a sudden, yeah, first of all, yeah, on the screen, they misspelled the word temperature up there.
I think it's like temperature, T-E-U-R-E at the end, like temperature your elbow there.
Oh, mouth tape.
Is it really?
Yeah.
Oh, a little, old nasal.
I'm sorry, keep going.
Used to be a lineman.
no deviated septum
the greatest septum
just like
just like my policies
they're never deviating
anyway
and then from there
it goes
it goes from like
temperature being spelled wrong
to this guy highlighting
that they're fundraising
$23,000
for this statue of something
called peg leg Pete
this pirate
does sound Florida
and then what was the thing
from there
oh man
there was one other. It was just, oh, and then the commercials, it was just amazing. And
and so we were just laughing so much back and forth about this Florida thing. Like, it was just
like, oh, what was the last one? There was like, it was like, it was like unbelievable,
unbelievable, unbelievable, like three in a room. I mean, even just like spelling a word wrong
on the broadcasts. Like, of course. Are you guys on Bleacher Report? Do you guys use that app?
No. Scott loves it. I feel like on regularly things are misspelled. Really? Yeah, all the time.
And I'm wondering, do they do that just to like, are they like trolling to like get more attention?
We're not using AI.
Look how much we sell things wrong.
Or they're trying to prove a point.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Still humans.
And it was amazing.
Like some of the people they interviewed were just, I mean, people that
interviewed out of the news anyway are just freaks, right?
Jensen.
Totally.
Government shut down good.
But these guys are just, good.
Yeah.
These people that cared about raising $23,000 for this miniature little wooden carving of this
pirate.
Pirate Pete, Pegleg Pete.
Pegleg Pete.
Out of St. Pete, maybe?
No, this is Jacksonville.
And Eric's like, yep, this is my news right here.
It was unpretable.
So I wish you were there for that.
Because we were just, I mean, we were just riffing on what these people were saying and laughing about it.
I was tired.
Truman and I were loving it.
Yeah, I was tired.
3.30.
I started out and then all day.
You guys were ready to go.
This is the last night.
So you were arrested by then.
Yeah.
I'm sorry.
I know I said it before, but there's no way the news can continue like it is.
It has to change at some point.
What do you mean?
Just like the content of it
It's like not worth watching
Like you have to change
How they deliver it to people
Yeah either that
Or like we're just gonna continue
To evolve into our parents
Who care about this
Because right now
No like no one our age
Is gonna like seemingly care about the news
Whereas when our parents were our age
I bet they were watching the news
Right like
They think they did
Yeah
I think so
What else would they have done?
Nothing
So boring back to it
Come teleport to the pyramids
I tried my first cigar
this weekend.
Fuff Daddy.
Yeah, that's what they called me.
I liked it. Fine.
I'm not into it,
but I can...
You're not out of it.
Yeah, like, I tried my first one,
and then, like, I was like,
I don't understand why people love this so much.
Yeah.
But at the same time,
I'm looking forward to having another one tonight.
Like, it was like one of those, like...
Sugar cookie.
Yes, the sugar cookie analogy of just like,
yeah, they're fine.
I'm not going to, like, seek it out.
Like, I have to all the time.
But now that it's...
around and I'm comfortable with it. It's like, yeah, I'll have one when it's when the time comes.
Like if there's a low quality sugar cookie, you'd be like, absolutely not high quality sugar
cookie like crumble. You're like, yeah, I'll try that. Yeah, yeah. This one's like privately
exported and resource. You're like, sure. What flavor did you have? No idea. The, um, smoky
one. Smoky cigar. Somebody asked me that I did like, which one did you try? I was like,
oh, the, uh, the one that's like the cylinder brown long one like that had flat on one side round
Yeah, you lighted on the ends, like that one. That's the one I tried. No idea.
Double-sided cigar.
And that's the thing is, obviously, I don't, I've now smoked two cigars in my life.
I have no experience of like what this tastes like compared to any other ones.
But it was like, I asked Jensen as I was smoking, I was like, are you supposed to, like, do you feel something physically when you smoke this?
Because I was like, I don't feel, I don't feel very neutral.
I don't feel negative, but I also don't feel like, wow, this feels great, you know.
And Jensen's like, no, it's more just like for the camaraderie of, you know, the cigar.
Ambiance.
Yeah, which was fun.
It was, I enjoyed it.
I was like, okay, I can kind of understand if this,
I would never do this on my own.
But if this is in community with other guys,
sure, sign me up.
But, so anyway, let's smoke them, you know,
smoke them if you got them, boys.
Also, don't know when I become a deacon if,
if that's a lot or not.
So.
I think probably stay away from the Puff Daddy nickname and then you're fine.
Not a good time to be called Puff Daddy.
Yeah.
Yeah, okay, fair.
Puff D. Deacon.
Puff Deacon.
Puff Deacon.
Okay.
That's sick.
Puff Deacon.
I get some like gangster shirt to say Puff Deakin on it.
Puff Deek.
Should we do our schmores?
Yeah, baby.
Let's do them.
We're doing the schmores of sounds.
No explanation necessary.
It's just sounds.
Jensen, you're the guest, so we'd love for you to go first and then Jake and then me.
Great.
Sounds good.
Is there any music we play?
Yeah, play the...
Just put any of those buttons over there on the right.
Just choose one.
Any of them?
That's muted anyway.
Thanks.
That sounds good.
Okay, for me.
First pick.
Swish.
Yeah.
Swish.
You know my dad?
His whole thing back in the day.
Sweet, sweet, sweet sound of a swish.
He used to love an old episode.
Oh, that sweet, sweet, sweet sound of a swish.
What is that from?
office? No, I think that's just what my dad would. I don't know. Maybe it's something else,
but he, that was like his, he loved saying that when I was a kid. Oh, sweet, sweet sweet sweet
so great one. Puff D. Puff D. Puff D. Puff D. Puff David. Suis sweet. Yeah, good answer. Just
when it's a pure. It sounds good anywhere. Do you prefer it to slightly like that little like
click sound when it barely hits the rim like it was like a firm three? Or are you want?
just just nylon uh for me personally i'd say michael jordan chain oh a chain
yeah wow i'm about i asked i believe i can fly
so what you're doing out here yeah nothing dad michael you're supposed to be in bed
dude the chain is a is a good one but the net i think for me it just i don't i don't like
the clink though i just want sweet sweet sweet son of just just pure nylon yeah
Nothing but nylon.
That's a great one though.
We should,
Coley,
you're editing this.
If you would like to take the liberty
of adding the sound effects in
for some of these,
that'd be fun.
That would be nice.
Maybe every time I say
Sweece's just have a switch.
Is there a way that you can do this
and then it?
Yeah.
Sweecy sound of a swish.
It's good.
Here, we're going to go to Jake.
Fire away.
Okay, great.
Now, Jensen.
Oh.
Man.
So we see some of a swish.
That was good.
All right, Jake.
My first pick is got to be the sound of a fireplace.
Oh, good answer.
It's crackling.
It's roaring.
Those are basically the two sounds.
Yes.
But I like them both.
Fire crackling is.
Fire crackling is.
Yeah, at first I wrote down like a crackling wick of a candle.
And I was like, wait.
It's like 10 times better than this.
Correct.
A fire.
And I deleted that.
It's so beautiful because it's like never consistent.
It's always in like a nice.
warm setting. It just adds. It's always adding goodness. And you can put a fireplace on your TV,
but it's not the same. Never. And if you're out there and maybe you're not like me, maybe your
fireplace is attached to the chimney. Consider yourself blessed. Because some of us can't have a
fireplace. Put that on your list of things you want. I should. Attach chimney. It's attached to the chimney.
That's good. Got it. All right. My first one is the crack of the bat. Just, dang it. That was the first
what I wrote down.
Yeah, me too.
I just,
I didn't even have that on my list.
Really?
No.
Wow.
I mean,
a crack of a wooden bat.
A wooden bat.
Yeah.
It's,
it's the crack of a bat.
There's,
there's nothing like it in the world.
It's,
it's beautiful.
So.
Because it's kind of hard to distinguish,
like even just like a hard ground ball or a home run.
It all kind of sounds the same.
Yeah.
It sounds great.
Yeah.
And it's exciting every time because it's like,
that's a solid hit.
It's a crack of the bat.
Yeah.
What's going to happen next.
So that vast beautiful.
And,
And it's also accompanied by this beautiful game, beautiful field,
normally really nice weather.
Beautiful field.
Incredible field.
Speaking of Greenland, I think I'm going to take that soon.
Hit him with a swish, Brad.
Swee's a sign of a switch.
And crack of the bat.
Get me up, Coley.
All right, that's my first answer.
I did have a swish on the list.
Next one, I think I'm going to go with.
is, is this, this might be too vague.
I just wrote laughter.
Too vague.
It's fine.
It kind of takes one of mine.
It's fine.
Yeah.
It's fine.
Laughter is just the sweetest.
Specifically, okay, I'll say this so you can use yours.
My dad's laugh.
Dad's laugh.
I like my dad's laugh.
Compassion.
Scotty P's hamburgers.
That's my name.
How perfect is that?
Only three years.
all um yeah my dad's laugh is just when when my dad laughs hard it's just there's nothing like
it in the world and just like just in general when you can get obviously we love making people laugh
especially when you get to you know so well enough to know their hard laugh yes that's great to get
yeah i mean jensen's got a great laugh and so like anytime we're laughing hard you know whatever
it's just chain effect there's just something special about yeah a laugh so we talked about your dad this
weekend yeah on our way to the tournament that we were all playing Saturday of course
Scott is DJing for us all weekend and he put on a song the hum oh yeah and he's like
Brad's dad loves this song actually that's the one that he yeah went nuts to in the student
section uh somebody like weighed the towels when he like got on the that massive flag in the student
section just bounced up it down with all these college kids yeah yeah we were talking about your dad
and i think Scott was doing an impression of what he would be like yeah he's kind of like clapping
to it clapping to it off beat a little bit da da da da da tant tant tant tant tant tant tant tant and ta da da
And then he starts putting his fist up to...
I really like this one, Brad.
Yeah, he does, man.
He gets fired up for that song every time.
Work for us.
One hum song, one gold medal.
It's correlated.
Yeah, so good.
All right, Jake, good answer.
Back to you.
I'm going to go with the...
I put crowd pop.
That's kind of what you call it, you know,
especially like doing comedy.
And it goes from silent.
to just, like, the biggest peak of those, like, wow, I caught them off guard.
I popped him.
Uh-huh.
Comedient term.
Yeah.
But yeah, there's nothing like that.
Can you remember a specific joke that you had that was the crowd popper more than,
like, other ones that are kind of like subtle, like, you know, build up like, oh, that's a little joke,
little joke, little joke, you know.
Um, I mean, anytime you're testing a new joke and they laugh like that, that is euphoric.
Yeah.
But I feel like specifically the bidet joke, the like, when I talk about the jet.
uh-huh and whatnot and i say a little bit of water came out of my mouth that is like the biggest
pop in the night and that's always kind of fun yeah you know so so good um i remember
yeah it's fun feeling we went to your show in kansas city together and i remember you had just
been to a show in cincinnati a couple that was that was the infamous time where bollas first night
of the tour that was so oh yeah that was you being there oh columbus yeah that was when that was the
classic like um i tried to like convince katherine to drive bo and i in my 2003 soberado yeah we talked about
Isaac's first night doing merch he was so stressed I remember that oh really yeah but you're out there
I remember we were watching your comedy bit in uh Kansas City together and Jensen just watching
he's like Jake's so dialed he's got this dialed like he's a lot different than Columbus yeah
oh no I don't think it was like that I think it was more just like he was just impressed by like you had
it down like you yeah the timing and the pauses and that's fun so the crowd pop it was funny
god pop going to your show and I was like dude nice job
And you're like, look the wrong way in the car.
I was like, what?
I was like, what?
I know exactly what you're talking about.
You know what I'm saying?
Do you remember this?
I don't even remember the joke, but pretty much you're like, you like turn to Rachel,
but like you're oriented yourself as you were driving and they looked the other way.
I looked left, even though I said, I was driving.
That doesn't make any sense.
She would be sitting shotgun to my right.
But then the people in the crowd are inverted so they wouldn't even thought about it.
You know what I'm saying?
Like, they're looking at you.
That's great.
I looked the wrong way during the driving.
That just shows how dialed you are
because it's like I looked this one
I should have looked at it. I haven't done that joke
in like 10 cities. I got off on my
looking. That's the one mistake you made.
It's like you know you were doing pretty well.
That's funny. You remember that. I remember that show
too. Oh, why I can't
believe it? What am I? In front of the ghosties?
Yeah. What am I English?
Yeah, all of a sudden you just like get so derailed
from that like guys can't. I have to address
it. Shut down's good.
Crap. What am I saying?
I'm sorry.
guys and ghosties up there sorry you guys especially you're the only people here even though i am
come on yeah that's great all right crowd pop jensen you get two here we go oh snake draft
yeah okay sorry click um give me golf ball in hole oh oh yeah i don't love the way you worded it
but that's a good golf ball in a hole i was still doing friend too gopon hole i like golf bar in
Oh, but in hood.
I'm still doing friend too.
Yeah, that is satisfying.
That's my only, some people are like very particular.
Pin out, please.
I don't want to, because I think they're like, it might, you know,
ricochet off there.
But pin out so you can hear golf ball and hole.
Yeah.
I just got to hear it.
Come on.
Yeah, that does sound good.
And reality, it's a bummer.
You get to these like courses.
There aren't that nice.
And there's a little, it rained the night before.
The cups got water in it.
You make a put.
where was my clank it would just droop splied yeah it was warm enough that was my next one drooping golf ball hole
drooping golf ball in hole greege wall of droop golf ball in one or hole out whatever you want to say
and then espresso machine oh oh just like it just working oh never mind just forget it but it's a sound
Cole, you'll add a real one in there.
Okay, I'm done.
That's nice.
I mean, all the noises,
even it's starting to drip
is kind of a fun noise.
That's kind of satisfying.
Okay.
That's good.
Main Street Roasters, espresso.
That's good.
That's good.
Your turn?
I'm going to do ocean waves.
Yep.
It's just nice,
not really a hot take here,
but just it means I'm at the beach.
It means the moon is still
where it's supposed to be. So all is good.
Means the moon's doing its job. Yeah. Ocean waves. Real nice, real pleasant. Except if it's the
Zen aspect of YouTube TV and then I do not like that. I want our official waves. Real ocean waves.
Just like real fires. Yep. Yeah, you want it all. Okay. I'm going to go kind of the polar opposite
of that, literally, crunching snow. I thought about it. I was like, that means I'm cold.
It's on my list. Not necessarily. Bundle up, brother. Bundle up and you'll be fine. Yeah,
Yeah, something about like, and often it's accompanied with like very little other noise
because it's the snow deafens everything else.
That is fun.
And it's silent.
Everything else.
Yeah.
I love that.
It's a good sound.
If I can't do waves, I do like the crunching of the snow.
And then I'll go back to the warm.
I got a lot of, I got a lot of like decent number four picks here.
I think I'm going to, I'm going to go a little bit more.
niche and go with that, I think we talked about it on a previous episode, but that THX sound
effect.
Coley's going to put it in and it's going to be epic.
Put your headphones on for this one.
The THS sound effect.
You know what I'm talking about?
Yeah.
The black bar.
Are you playing it?
No, I'm just looking at it and just having a flashback.
You know what I'm talking about, Jens?
Yeah.
Like especially when it was in the movie theater and you heard that.
Silver lettering.
Yep.
And it's like, yep.
Yeah.
And maybe it's like a little bit of a, no, I don't think so.
I was going to say maybe it's a placebo thing where it's like you know it's supposed to sound really cool
because it's like, oh, it's a sound like high in sound thing.
No, I think it's that good.
It's just beautifully like simple and just like reverberates inside it.
It's awesome.
So that's my last pick.
My last pick is going to be cracking a can open.
Great noise.
Great noise.
It doesn't really matter what it is because you picked it out.
and you want to drink it.
So I think it's just like your can of choice, the first crack.
So nice.
Cracking the Milo.
That's right.
That's great.
I didn't have that on my list, but that's it.
I had four different things that started with the word crack.
Did you?
Yeah.
Crack attack.
Crack attack.
Finsen.
Back to me.
Finish it all.
Last one?
Yeah.
I'm going to go with you inspired me.
I'm going rogue on this last one.
21st century drums.
Whoa.
Oh.
Okay.
Yeah.
For symphony.
Okay.
Yeah.
That song, like that little jingle.
Is that okay?
Because that's like a song.
That's okay.
No, I think that's great.
Okay.
So, yeah, that's going to be a fun one for us to hear in post, too.
Yeah.
Da-da-da-la, da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da.
Yeah, so good.
Because it's just, it's a pre, what's so fun about it is it's a precursor for another
a really fun thing you're about to do like you're you're investing in a movie you're like
sitting down to like watch a good movie it's a gateway to so many wonderful things right
yeah that's so good gateway sound yeah once I got into that sound I got into a lot of other
sounds good got into hard sounds all right we got any more on the honorable mentions
when you said golf I thought you're going to go with the different peering and iron or like
hearing like a professional hidden iron is like pretty cool pretty satisfying yep
I had a baby's laugh.
Oh, that's just like, you hear that.
It was like, that was better than this.
Well, mine was when my dad was a baby.
Oh, that's right.
Sorry.
My dad's baby laugh.
I saw home videos.
It sounded cool when my dad was a baby.
Yeah.
It's funny to think about baby D.
Baby D.
And then in the realm of like actual production sound, just like the first three seconds of like Alan
Parsons project, serious, just like,
that's just the best song ever.
Right.
fires me up.
Right.
Absolutely.
Coley put that in right now
just real quick.
So good.
Thank you.
Are you talking about
the first three seconds?
The first three seconds
are just like one notes.
I guess like yeah,
when you know what it is,
when you know like the,
whatever that sound even is.
This is when the bulls
are about to get introduced.
Oh.
Yes.
Yeah.
That part.
Yeah.
It's adjacent to the THS sound.
They are kind of similar sounds a little bit.
Yeah.
Here's the deal.
I like coffee.
I like Main Street Roasters.
I like supporting ghosty run businesses.

You ever had coffee with dessert?
It makes it taste better.

That's it.
I had similar to like the laughter of a crowd,
the pop or whatever,
I think it's really fun.
You ever see those videos of like,
you're out in the parking lot of Lambo Field
when there's some crazy play that happens?
Like a distant crowd.
A crowd going crazy from afar.
You know, like you're at a barn,
near Wrigley field and all of a sudden like this crazy thing happens you know whatever i think
that's fun it's a cool honorable mention for me in dallas this past weekend you remember jack
reeves from kelet back in a izic name were still kind of buddy so we went to his house before the
airport shower he lives across the street from this massive sports bar and he said they have
the antenna there and he's got youtube tv so he's like oh they spoil things like 30 seconds like
you know if somebody's going to happen because the sports bar just erupts yeah right i was like
that is too bad.
You have to, like, watch a sports game with, you know, headphones on in your living room.
La, la, la, la, la, la, la.
Yeah, I don't want to hear it.
I don't want to know.
Yeah.
That would be, yeah, mostly annoying.
But every once in a while I'd be like, oh, what's about to happen here?
Oh, boy, you're going to want to come in here.
I also had football hit, just like a just good old, like, clean, just crunch of a football hit.
Just, that's good.
Yeah.
This one's pretty abstract, but, like, you know the feeling like when it's a windy day and you,
it's like a little bit still for a second and you can feel the wind start coming based on the leaves?
Like some trees.
The leaves move first.
Like you hear like a faraway tree making a little noise and they starts like coming closer to you.
I think that's really beautiful.
Summer rain is a beautiful sound.
And then I just had some theme song, the March Madness theme song,
Play-Nine Football.
And the Fox NFL
They're all just
NFL films
Fire me up
Which one's
Which one's NFL films?
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
Remember there was a year on Madden
They had all those
Yes that was nice
Yeah just like
Symphony whatever music
That inspires me to like listen to those
instrumental songs while I do work sometimes
When I like
Because sometimes like if you listen to songs with words
they distract you when you're trying to write something or whatever make you work harder i think so too
dun dun dun dun dun dun dun dun yeah that's so good got any other honorable mentions jensen
yeah childhood childhood doorbell oh you know whenever someone rings the doorbell what kind you have
you're like um just you have a dual tone ding dong ours is one yeah yeah ours is a one oh it's just
one no ours is two yeah two sound yeah that was fun because
You don't get the doorbell wrong on you very much anymore.
No.
So, it's like calculated and or just a delivery driver.
I had electric cars.
Yeah?
Like when they're in reverse.
Yeah.
It's kind of angelic.
It is kind of.
Jingle bells.
Just the, yeah.
Sometimes with like a restaurant doors.
Uh-huh.
You know, you open up.
It's like, you're going to a pub.
And then also Christmas.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Mm-hmm.
Yep.
Nice pub.
Uh, fighter plane.
like fly over?
Yeah.
Good answer.
Speed of sound.
And you're like questioning,
am I actually hearing this?
And then it's growing and like,
it's happening.
You just don't know where it's going from.
And often it's paired with the national anthem
so it just fires you up twice as much.
Oh, yeah.
Of course.
So good.
Is that it?
That's it.
That's it.
That's good.
Yeah, that was fun.
It took me a little bit to get going, but once I got, I kind of started to think about the categories.
I was like childhood, sports, some of those ones.
Yeah.
So often, yeah, so often it's like either, yeah, whatever, nostalgic or nature for me.
You know, and when I just thought about, Pixar Lamp.
Yeah.
Pixar Lamp.
That's a good sound.
Yeah, just childhood sounds
It's almost his own category
Yeah, so good
The PlayStation firing up
That's exactly what I was thinking about
I was just thinking I was like yeah
It had a noise
The like the whirring sound
It's gonna be hard to like
Oh yeah
Create that but like as it's trying to like
Load your game
Coley have fun if you want to
And always like I'm not saying
You have to do all of it
But oh my Xbox had one too
Bro I had an Xbox
That was a Halo edition one
And when you turned it on
It was like the sword powering up
Or your shield
like we're generating
you know what I mean
click the power button
remember when you would load Halo
bungee remember that sound
yeah
it wasn't actually that satisfying
but still it's a childhood sound
it was like the
high pitch sound
something remember bungee
it was like their graphics company
or something
I don't know who they were exactly
yeah when you turn on that Xbox
it had like that like flubber looking thing
like the liquid green
gooey looking thing
and turn it to Xbox
Halo had a lot of good noises.
Oh, yeah.
Going up, like, the thing and lockout, just pulling out your sword, plaza pistol hitting.
I mean, just the theme song alone is just unreal.
So good.
Yeah.
Someday, I bet in 10 to 15 years, you know how they do like symphony, like a live symphony
version of, you know, home alone.
They're going to do one for people our age that are 50 years old for Halo.
Like, there's going to be like, come to this concert.
and we will, this choir will sing HALO.
The sounds of Halo.
Yeah.
And we're all going to be.
Turret time.
Slayer.
Yeah.
Just one person would be like,
running riot.
All those sounds.
That's so funny.
Yeah, man.
Killing spree.
Killing spree.
Yeah, remember the other killing spree.
Five was killing spree.
Killing was running riot.
Kila Jara.
It was like 20.
or something. I forgot about Kilimanjaro.
I've had that little beep whenever you died.
Beep.
Oh, beep.
Yeah.
Yeah, you're like falling into the abyss.
Beep.
The sound of like all the vehicles you get in, like the wraith or the, the ghost.
Yeah.
The, what was the thing you could actually really fly?
The banshee.
Banshee was nuts.
Banshee was good.
That, da, da, da, ta, ta, ta, ta, ta.
Oh, yeah.
Holy chow.
Slayer.
Gosh, that's awesome.
That takes you back.
I can't know
to play now, boys.
I know.
That's a business right there.
Like,
did you just hear a knock?
Yeah.
Doorbell.
That's a business right there is just,
I'm going to keep talking about this while you're going to.
Please.
Basically just like keeping really good care of Xboxes
and sitting on them for next,
not literally sitting on them,
but like just keeping them for the next 10 years
and then opening up like a,
hey,
you can pay two hours to bring your buddies.
oh yeah because I don't want an Xbox at my house I don't want to play Halo all the time but I would love to just take me back for a night with my friends absolutely and just play for a second you know I always heard of land parties but never got invited to
correct yeah yeah what were they what were they it was like hey my buddy was doing a land party it's like a land party yeah how do you it felt like a higher technical right term higher level of existence we did system links a little bit but even then we didn't have the right setup like that's one
I'm saying, like a business that just has the old school controllers, old school everything
and just has it set up right on like some huge screens, some, everyone gets their own comfortable
chair and it's just, yeah, it's just a night with the boys playing Halo.
And you got one guy, like if it was an odd number, you got one guy playing pinball on your
grandma's Windows 95.
Yeah.
Yes, dude.
Oh, all the sounds just in that.
Yeah.
So good.
land party to me feels like
Shark Week or something
We're like you see people talk about it
But I'm like I
Does anyone know how to set up a land party
Aluminati
I think we were about four years before
The land party craze
I don't think we were
We were too old or we were
Oh I thought you guys were squarely in it
I think we were too young
I'm sorry to try too old
I understand what it is
Like you see people like all the time
Like if you're in a apartment complex
And you click on someone's Wi-Fi
There without a doubt
There will be a Wi-Fi network
that is using a pun with the term lan
and I don't understand that
because no one knows what land is
why are we using it so colloquially
no one knows what that is
local area network I know it stands
for that but I don't know exactly I don't know
I've never connected to one I don't know how to use one
I don't know what it is
yeah I don't know too much
but yeah I just felt like
we were like we kind of
dabbled with Xbox Live
at least I did I didn't get super
like advanced into I didn't have
Xbox 360 I stopped at Xbox so like yeah maybe you had more experience with Xbox
live than I did but like no it was like a new thing internet yeah it was like a new thing
for us and then like four years later like probably Jensen's age more or less it's like they were
more in tune with that stuff I think we did do system link plenty though yeah just between
me and stevo uncle John and my dad so good yeah that was uncle John played with you guys yeah
I mean my dad did legendary John were terrible we had to get 50 before they got 10 on a team
Slayer.
Slayer.
But it was great if you're on a map where you could fall off.
You know, sometimes they would get to 10 kills.
So it's like, oh, dang, they beat us.
It's like, well, the game's not really over until we get 50.
So you would try to like coax them in to, you know, like, almost jukeing them or pushing them off.
You'd try to get them back down to nine kills.
And that was some of the most fun childhood moments of all time.
Trying to get your dad or your uncle to fall off the map.
Post college for me, like the year that I graduated was the year that Fortnite really
blew up. Okay. Okay. And my dad, and I lived at home at the time to save money, my dad would
beg me to play Fortnite in front of him. Oh, just to watch. Just to watch. He goes,
hiding that bush again. Hey, gents, you want to hide in that bush? You're probably, Dad, if you
want to watch Fortnite, there's guys a million times better than me. Yeah. Really good. But he's like,
so you're telling me there's 100 players in this map right now? Yeah. And you're the third to last one? Yeah.
back in that bush
yeah it's awesome
get back in that bush
and the storm's closing in
but you're already in the circle
dude you're set
oh my gosh
that bush is awesome
that's amazing
he never wanted to play
he just wanted to watch you
and he didn't really want to see you
live a high octane game style
he wanted to camp in the bush
subdued it's long day at work
that's why you want to enlist so bad
you gotta prove your dad
I can do something
listen dad I can make a difference here
dad's got me on the bench
that's right
Need to be on the field.
It's so good.
Anyway, that was fun.
Because we're going to wrap this up with comment of the week
and just to be thinking of a win of the week.
Yeah.
You bet, man.
Dot com.
Let's see.
Oh, here's fun.
Lydia Kaye, 17 hours ago.
Whoa.
It's got a little dizzy.
That's weird.
If anyone needs convincing to buy some new ghosty merch from the vault,
let this be it.
I always wear my ghost runner's shirt and hoodie to school.
And recently, one of my friends asked me
what Ghost Runners was. So I explained it was a podcast and he said he would listen. Fast forward
to last week and he randomly told me he listened to a few episodes. Words cannot explain how excited
I was. So there you go. Merch makes new ghosties. All right. Ghostroders. Dot life slash shop.
They're all out there. From the vault. Disney vault's open. Brad's version. Yeah. People have
been ordering which is really exciting. Thank you guys. What are they been buying? What's popular?
What's popping? Honestly, I haven't analyzed it too much. McKay-Lewie is, I defy. I defy
anybody to represent us and support us like Michaela. We do. She's the best. I mean, she probably
ordered five new shirts just this past week. That's awesome. I don't know. I haven't. I haven't
know. Let me, I'll get back to you. I personally have a good boy hunting hoodie. Yeah.
So I've supported. Emily Shung just ordered a good boy. Thank you. Shout out Emily. Emily also
repping. He wants more cropped hoodies. Good boy. Cropped crew next or something. Yeah.
It's very hard to pick from comments. There's so many funny ones. Patrick, I didn't recognize this in the time.
And he said, to use the phrase on one hand versus the other hand when discussing Marcus is wild.
I didn't realize we did that in the time.
And then Micah said, Jake in 2019 had another pee theory.
He thought that if you hold your pee for days and eventually can't hold it anymore, you will never stop peeing if then you start drinking water.
I remember that.
Also, our family spent two and a half months in Haiti in 2019.
The compound that we stayed at is now taken over by gangs and the buildings that we help build are now destroyed.
Let's do our part to help out this broken place.
Heck yeah.
Timen is still the man.
Thanks, guys.
That's right.
So Mike, I think,
crammed it a lot there.
I love it.
Healingwaters.org slash ghosties 2025.
Yeah.
That's cool.
Thanks all those Spotify comments.
I did talk to some guys.
There were a lot of guys, actually,
that had connections to ministries in Haiti,
including Will from audio adrenaline,
Wes, compassion.
And yeah,
just talking to them about the situation over there.
It is bleak and hard.
so yep check them out give.healingwaters.org slash ghosties 2025 jensen you got a comment by chance it's
okay if you don't you got a win I told him to be thinking of a win sorry that's great one in the week
um yeah last bird I kind of did a military bob way to end the hunt you know how you bob
snipe that one and the last like everyone's like all right load up we hit our limit then one just
solo bob I had the last kill this year for the pheasant hunt
There was one that I was, like, trying to find.
And he, like, went down, but he was still alive.
So I, like, went back with Truman.
It's kind of personal.
Mm-hmm.
With one of the dogs.
It was me, Bob Truman, and one of the dogs, Diesel, maybe.
And we're looking for it.
We found it.
It flushed because the dogs weren't doing, like, the dogs would run around it.
It wouldn't fly.
So Truman, the guide, big old Kansas boy, just dives on the bird, and the bird flies up.
He dove on the bird?
He dove on it, and it flew up.
Got it.
Doof.
Yeah.
It's my one of the week.
I missed it,
but it sounded awesome.
Oh, pretty good.
Yeah.
And you guys came back.
You could tell,
you came back with a story.
Like the way you guys were walking back.
There was like four of you walking.
Yeah,
whatever.
It's so fun.
My one of the week is Catherine just texted me.
Bo learned how to read his first book.
He got so excited.
He said,
Hey, Rosie,
want me to read you a book?
And then just sent me a video.
That's awesome.
They send me a video, and it's so sweet.
They're just sitting laying on Beau's bed.
Sam.
Had a cat
The cat
You know, whatever
That's so cool
And he's so excited about it
So I'm pumped for him
Next step
He's hanging for the monkey
Or is reading a book
The trick is
The muscles
You gotta sound out the words
There's a
There's a valid every word
I have four E except under a seat
Just
Oh that's the cutest
You gotta get muscles
Lump.
That's why I get a lump on my arm.
Anyway,
I got two quick wins.
One,
obviously we win gold
And it was like very hard fought
To like win gold at 4.5
You know division,
World Championships.
And so it's kind of just fun.
Like it just you feel like the endorphins
Of just like success a little bit
And you're walking around
And I'll tell you what's fun too
Is people,
Everyone knows us.
Hey, how you do today?
And you get to say you win gold.
That goes nice.
So we're just like walking around like,
I'm starving.
Let's go eat something.
And I just happen to walk by
and they had set up cornhole
and I'm like fresh off the victory
I just without breaking stride
just grab a bag
throw it never stop walking
it just sinks in
and Scott is like
this guy can't miss
yeah
he's like calling
yeah yeah
that's another nice sound
cornhole
yeah it is
that was kind of funny
this guy can't miss right now
and then another fun thing
Margar and Dallas
Josh Mayer friend of the show
who's been on here before
one of my good buddies
golfed with us
the day of my wedding
oh yeah um great i was like dude i would love to see you and maggie and he's like it's actually
perfect i'm finishing up a youtube video we'd love to have you be a part of it come bring the crew
oh heck yeah so he's kind of found this niche so to speak of like golf content he's always been
making but now he's doing like storytelling golf content he's not even really on the course
anymore and oh really he's crushing it i mean he's getting he's like blowing up what what do you
mean not on the course like what give me an example um so i guess i should say not really like
playing golf that much like that was kind of two years ago we were all trying stuff it's like
let's play the lowest rated course
in all these different states
and like that didn't take off
he's trying this
that's not working
so now he's doing stuff like
can I build a golf simulator
um you know using
team you or yeah I
I compare to every
uh style of golf cart
or whatever
and okay anyway
and stuff I would love to make
but golf is just 10 times more popular
and the pickleball and so I just it's not
the sport is not there yet anyway
so his video that he's making
that he was making was
he built a golf simulator
in a storage unit
and so it looks really cool
unbelievable but the whole thing was like
he's like all right so I want you guys
for the video I told my friends
that I need help moving
and then I'm going to like surprise you guys
so that's kind of the shit
and so we do it
we have these reactions whatever
and he's like hey and also part of the video
I'm going to give away a driver
because the simulator really does work
so like let's have a long drive contest
you get one swing
Scott goes Isaac goes
whatever I'm going last
and I had said he was because it's it is kind of tight in there and I was like hey I'm not going to win I'm here for the content like do you want me can I like hit my driver on the wall would that be funny because he'd already said like it doesn't matter and he's like you know what I actually don't want to like probably mess up the storage unit just like swing normal I was like okay no no worries right and so then I line up and I'm like still going to like try to do something funny for content and so in my back I'm like lined up and as I take my back swing I go this is why you help your
friends move and take the biggest swing in my life and I shank the ball and you talk about pinball
ding ding ding ding ding get down yeah it's like Vietnam in here and honest to God was not
trying to do that I mean yeah yes I talked about back to me were trying to swing hard I was trying to
hit the ball hard and I haven't swung a golf club at six months but so you think it'll be able to make solid
contact yeah yeah and I mean in the end it's like this was hilarious for content I guess mission
accomplished but yeah everyone hit the deck i mean you can't even see where the ball is and uh nothing
was damaged everybody's good but i can't wait for that yeah youtube because i think that'll be really
funny so but overall really good to see josh and maggie and yeah um they're great they're such
good people that's awesome fun times that's cool i'll have to fiaton yeah yeah
everyone down below the smoke line yeah whatever jensen thanks for being on man of course always
fun to have you here in kc yeah always thanks for having me great time anything else you want to
get off your chest anything you yeah whatever any any last words for me brown suck yeah we were
watching football the other day jensen's like why is football so awesome and then probably five minutes
later he's like football's the worst it was like 17 17 when i started watching the brown's jets
game and then literally two minutes later they're down 14 awesome
Football sucks.
Yeah, yeah.
Sorry, man.
It's okay.
Someday, maybe.
It is funny how it comes in waves,
because, like, this year had a rough fantasy year.
So I'm like, fantasy football sucks.
It's called fantasy.
I care about the real game.
It's lucky anyway.
Yeah, I'm like, the Chiefs, that's what I mean, that's fun.
Fantasy, I mean, take or leave it.
The thing about Cleveland sports is that you can put your hope
in the next season of a different team as the one is failing.
You're like, well, the calves.
The Cavs, number one team in the NBA.
And then they lose the second round of the playoffs.
You go, well, the Guardians made a good run last year.
Hey, two pitchers that got indicted by the FBI's.
Great.
That's awesome.
But only two.
Only two.
We got a lot of pitchers.
Those are our best pitcher, but so great.
Yeah, it is kind of crazy.
Sports gambling is making everything so messy.
Rocker Roll Hall of Fame, though.
It's pretty cool.
Very cool.
You got to go there, Jensen.
All the older guys at the pheasant hunt were like,
Cleveland.
Oh, you got to go there.
All right.
All right.
They're probably in it.
So they're like trying to get you to go.
Right.
Right.
All right, ma'am.
That is the podcast.
Thanks for listening, guys.
You know what's sneaking up on us?
We need to figure out episode 500.
