Starting point is 00:00:00 He walks up to our window and he goes, this is my car and so is that one. Do some dumbass shit like that again and I will fuck you up. Yup. And I think you just said, I'm sorry. I was like, okay, I'm sorry, sir. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:00:14 And then he turned and went and got back in his car and drove away. Yup. ["Dogcat"] Welcome to the Oh Yeah! Oh Yeah! Podcast. I'm Jake and I'm a grass daddy and today I'm being joined by Trace Johnson. I was giving you the opportunity to introduce yourself but that's okay.
Starting point is 00:00:38 You know. I know you like to come on here and let me talk to myself but I appreciate you coming on and filling in for, not really filling in for anyone in particular. Cam is out of town, no longer with us. On the pod currently is what I meant. I don't know what you guys thought I meant by that, but yeah, he's out of town.
Starting point is 00:00:59 He's making the walk. He's going from South Africa all the way up through Africa all the way across Russia. The longest road possible that you can walk. And then he's gonna swim to Australia. Yeah. I think if he has enough strength left in him that was his plan. He was gonna swim to Australia. A little buzzed already. Just kidding. But yeah, I've got some things jotted down here. We were kind of, we were pre-gaming a little buzzed already just kidding but yeah I've got some things driving down here we were kind of we were pre-gaming a little bit before this episode we got them a little we got the things we want to talk about on this one and but before we do as any good conversation goes down better with a little it's like oh you scared. You scared. So what do we got
Starting point is 00:01:47 huh? Oh you like that open it up open it up. Oh, I know way look he's looking in there. He wants to see you and I go in there Martin. Double silver silver silos. Hell yeah. These mountains are blue baby. Oh oh! There we go. Let me join you. Martin you want to help me open this? I'm scared you're gonna knock over my beer You want to know something really cool i'm glad I made that reference go for it talk in your mic
Starting point is 00:02:45 Did that make you spew almost I was just thinking the other day, it's been a while since we had a good spit take, and it's usually, and not even just on the pod, it's usually in real life too. Whenever I see Cam just go to take a drink or something, I'm just waiting. I'm like, I don't know, I'm like Randy Orton waiting to do the, such a bad reference um I don't know. I'm like Randy Orton waiting to do the
Starting point is 00:03:07 Such a bad reference, I don't know basically. I like when cam is about to take a drink of something trying to get him to spew mm-hmm I like what I used to do to you and we lived in the same yeah But yeah, we haven't had a good spit take in a while. We almost had one. And now I'm scared to drink this because I gave you the idea. No, no, no, no. So recently I saw a YouTube video
Starting point is 00:03:35 that was talking about how, and this is my algorithm is now feeding me all these behind the scenes clips of Lord of the Rings, and I am not complaining about it one bit. Right. Jesus Christ, Trace. So, what Peter Jackson did was, he was toying with how he wanted to have the sound
Starting point is 00:04:01 for the Uruk army in like the Battle of Helms Deep or and leading up to it You know when him and Wormtongue are standing out on that balcony And he like shows him the army or whatever. Yeah. Yep. So they were like well we could either record like eight people making noises and then just like Duplicate it in the audio, but then it wouldn't sound very good. Right. So what he did was he went to a New Zealand rugby match and they had a bunch of microphones out there and like on the Jumbotron, he like put the black speech of the Yurokai for them to chant. And so the entire crowd was chanting,
Starting point is 00:04:46 like in Black Speech, so that's like real audio of a massive crowd of people doing it. And he was having them stomping their feet and like pounding on their chest and stuff to get a bunch of real sound. And it was so crazy watching the YouTube video of the crowd chanting it, because it was the same audio that I've heard from the movie. Right.
Starting point is 00:05:09 So I'm like, oh my god, I've heard that audio a million times and seeing the origin of it was pretty cool. And I'm sure all of you found it awesome as well. Or not. I feel like there's a good fan base of Lord of the Rings that's mostly just made up of guys. Yeah, I've met some girls. I mean me too. Yeah. Period.
Starting point is 00:05:35 But I've also met some girls that like the Lord of the Rings. You know Lord of the Rings and chill as they say. But I don't think anyone's ever said that I'm like I'm gonna show you a ring of power But yeah, I feel like and the people that like the Lord of the Rings some people you can kind of assume like that guy probably likes Lord of the Rings and then some people you're like I Don't know if that guy like Cuz for the most part if you're kind of a nerd, it's like a 100% chance
Starting point is 00:06:13 You're gonna like Lord of the Rings. Mm-hmm, but if you're like anyone else, they're either like that shit's fucking gay or or Some people will surprise you and be like, oh oh dude those movies are fucking awesome, right? I have a friend at work that hasn't seen them yet, and I'm like Dude, yeah, and I think I might have scared him a little bit cuz I'm like yeah the third extended The third extended movie is like four hours Yeah, and he's like I'm kind of scared to watch him cuz didn't you say that third one movie was like four hours And all I said was dude. you'll wish it was five. And he's like, it's that good?
Starting point is 00:06:48 And I'm like, it's pretty fucking good. Yeah, I can never decide when people haven't seen it to have them watch the standard edition, because I know when I watched it first, it was just the standard edition, which made the extended versions so much better, because you're like, oh, I know what should be in the scene and what shouldn't be.
Starting point is 00:07:08 So then you can just sit there and be like, that's extended. I think to do it right, the best way to do it would be get someone hooked on Lord of the Rings standard edition. Cause then you are gifting them the ability to then go back and watch the extended and be like, oh, it's like a new version of the movie that I get to watch and I get to enjoy all this new stuff in it. Because that's exactly what happened with me. It was so refreshing watching The Extended
Starting point is 00:07:37 versions because I was like, oh my God, I'm getting to see new Lord of the Rings content that I haven't seen before. Oh yeah. And it's kind of funny watching it too, being like, I can kind of see why they cut this out because it's not really important. Yeah, some of them aren't, but then some of them are like, why wasn't that? I don't, okay, so let's do this.
Starting point is 00:07:58 Let's think of an example, because I have an example of my head of one that was just like, yeah, I can see why they cut that out. And then you tell me one where it's like, why did they cut that? So the first one that comes to my mind is the scene where Mary and Pippin are drinking the end, like the tree water. And they're like arguing about, they think they're growing.
Starting point is 00:08:21 That whole scene is pointless. It's just them dicking around essentially. Yeah. It holds no bearing to the to the storyline or weight to the movie whatsoever. Right. But can you think of one? I want to say, and I just watched these recently so I'm a little disappointed in myself that I just can't think of one right away, but the one that I'm thinking of myself that I just can't think of one right away. But the one that I'm thinking of that could just be
Starting point is 00:08:48 regular is the same movie shortly after that with Saruman on the tower. Oh yeah. And Megalith shoots. Yeah. Is that extended or is that canon? Yes. Yes. So that one definitely was like that should have stayed in and it's only only like, what, like a minute long? It might be a little longer than that,
Starting point is 00:09:08 but the scene you're talking about, yes, because it literally shows them, and spoiler alerts, by the way. Right, right. If you haven't seen Lord of the Rings by now, you've had plenty of fucking chance they've been out since like- Oh yeah, early 2000s, mid 2000s. But the scene you're talking about they literally kill Saruman. So if you hadn't ever seen the
Starting point is 00:09:29 extended you would just assume he was still alive. Mm-hmm just chilling in the tower it's like I lost. It's like no actually he gets killed. Yeah. It's like what? Mm-hmm. So yeah that is a good point. But I wish they would have added and I think I told you this last night, or maybe I just referenced his name, Tom Bombadil. Oh, right. Like sure that part in the book doesn't really add much to this main plot line, but shit, he's the most OP guy in all of Lord of the Rings. I can think of a theory as to maybe why they wouldn't and it's it's the same thing as like the Superman or the Captain Marvel problem when you have a character that's
Starting point is 00:10:21 like that strong that Op yeah They can kind of just like steamroll over the enemy and then it would make the movie shorter Granted in the book that doesn't happen. Yeah, and also in the book they make it sound like he's pretty passive He's like he's not for he's not on the good side or the bad side. He just cares for just nature and so life, I guess. So it also would kinda make sense why they left him out because he probably would be like, I'm not going to war with you guys. Like, I'm gonna stay here.
Starting point is 00:10:59 I'm gonna stay here and smoke this tobacco. Right, I'm just gonna chill in my garden, in my house. But with my horse, Fatty Lumpkin, which we call Martin sometimes. But yeah, I remember watching the extended movies for the first time, I'm like, this is fucking sick. Oh yeah. New content.
Starting point is 00:11:20 Oh yeah. Like, and the mouth of Sauron at the black gate. Oh yeah, that's another one. Not in the theatrical. Yep. Yeah and so like the first time I had ever seen him was in that like I think it's like I can't remember what it's called but
Starting point is 00:11:35 it's that Lord of the Rings game that I play. Oh sure and you're like what the fuck is mouth of Sauron? Yeah and I had to like fight him in the first game and I was just like who are you? Dude I have Lord of the Rings Return of the King on Gamecube. That's a good one. And I have not even
Starting point is 00:11:55 opened it since I bought it because my cousin and I, my cousin who's in the military or wasn't the military. Well, he still is, but we played that as kids. Yeah. And I like kind of I've kind of made a promise to myself that I'm going to wait to play it until we play it together. But fair enough. But it's not that big of a deal. I can still go back and play it with him, but we should play it sometime. Oh, I agree. I think we did the same thing with that, like Star Wars Battle Frontier, Lord of the Rings themed game. I think you bought it.
Starting point is 00:12:31 Conquest. Conquest, yep. I think you bought it and then you waited. You were like, I'm gonna play this with Trace. Yeah. For nostalgic purposes, but yeah. And also I think they They were gonna have a scene where like the physical embodiment of saran like came out and was gonna fight Aragorn in front of the black gate and then they're just like
Starting point is 00:12:59 Maybe we won't do that and they just like replaced it in post with like that giant troll thing We won't do that and they just like replaced it in post with like that giant troll thing Yeah, yep. So but well, I don't remember like it's been a while since I've read either the Harry Potter books or the Lord The Rings books is that in the book like does Sauron like an embodiment of Sauron come out and fight now No, so they were just throw it in. Yeah. Yeah, I Just read that actually There wasn't from what I can remember there actually wasn't that much in the book of Of the fight in front of the Black Gate
Starting point is 00:13:38 It's just it took me a while to read through it all yeah when I read I read kind of in chunks here and there But it mainly focused on It took me a while to read through it all. When I read, I read kind of in chunks here and there. But it mainly focused on Frodo and Sam. It talked a lot about them being amongst, which is an extended scene in the movies. When they go down the hill, they find that orc armor and they put it on, and then they're walking amongst all the other orcs. and then some guys like notices something weird and he's like gonna go inspect it and then
Starting point is 00:14:10 they like pretend getting a fight yeah which starts a fight between all the other right yeah and then they're like get to the gate you maggots but whatever and that is talked about a lot them like getting to the mountain and then getting up the mountain and then yeah I'm attacking them on the mountain a lot of that was in the movie and also in the book, but We may have to test ourselves because and we'll get to it but You Trace Johnson have claimed that you can quote Trace Johnson have claimed that you Can quote?
Starting point is 00:14:45 Harry Potter like no other oh boy, so I may have to quiz you But then I'm gonna let you do it to me because I think Lord of the Rings Do you think you could quote Lord of the Rings or Harry Potter better? Probably Harry Potter see and I think I could quote well both of them But I definitely think I could quote, well, both of them, but I definitely think I could quote Lord of the Rings, like the back of my hand. So we may end up doing that later in the episode,
Starting point is 00:15:11 but I do have some stuff I wanna talk about. Just right off the top, what's your favorite country song? Honestly. Do you actually have one? I mean, I don't know if you would even consider it country. I think it is technically by music genre standard. Sure.
Starting point is 00:15:32 But the bar song by Shaboosie. Okay. That one, I actually do like that one. I would say that's like a... It's like a pop country. Yeah. But... It's pretty catchy.
Starting point is 00:15:44 I had never heard of this guy never and then all of a sudden there's just a hit single that's definitely kind of a one hit wonder type of scenario isn't it yeah but I think he has other music I really haven't listened to him because I'm like a country why don't you like country music um you think of a real reason why you don't I think why I don't you like country music? Can you think of a real reason why you don't? I think why I don't like country music is that's pretty much all my parents would listen to when we'd get into a car for a long car ride or,
Starting point is 00:16:16 cause I mean like we would go up to my grandparents which is three hours away. So three hours of just straight nonstop country music. So you just got tired of it as a kid and you're like, I'm over this shit. I think like shortly, I think when I was like eight or nine, I was like, can I get a pair of headphones for Christmas? I'm tired of listening to your guys.
Starting point is 00:16:39 Yeah. Yeah, most kids like look back on their childhood and miss it and you're just like, no, I'm just kidding. But yeah, I get you. I can't really think of what my parents listened to when I was younger. And I, for the longest time, also didn't like country music. I remember.
Starting point is 00:17:03 And then you had to turn to the dark side. I I got a truck and. Some a shift happened in my brain. It's like the truck curse. It is. If you get a truck. You're going to like you're going to like listening to country music. Yeah, actually, I don't know if I know that for a fact, but there is a certain and also, I think hanging out with Cam, too. Yeah, because for a fact. But there is a certain and also I think hanging out with Cam too. Yeah, because for a period
Starting point is 00:17:29 Like a couple winners ago, I was just like I am bought into this whole blue collar Mindset because we would we would cut trees down at work and then bring the wood home and Drink beer and split it after work for like an hour or so like Maybe not every day, but like a couple days a week. We were splitting wood and drinking beer after work And I don't know I came out I came out as a And I don't know, I came out. I came out as a country listener. I was like, you know what?
Starting point is 00:18:08 I also feel like if you drive a Mustang, you can't listen to country music. Actually, you know, sacrilege. I feel like out of any American, what would you call that muscle car or sport? I feel like out of any muscle car, the Mustang would be the one where it's like, I could listen to country music. I don't know. Because it's named after a horse.
Starting point is 00:18:29 Listening, I don't know. Well, sure. But you listen to country and a Mustang and someone's like, look at this fucking pussy. Look at this poser. Like you're already listening to, I don't even know. But like you get a truck and it's like it's almost expected right so you rolled out a window when you're at McDonald's and fucking Kenny Chesney's playing and they might throw a couple extra fries in your back so like this is a red-blooded American right no I don't know you're just gonna agree with whatever I say you're like no I totally agree agree. No, that makes sense. Like, give me the fries. I don't feel fake.
Starting point is 00:19:08 I don't like being like a fake person. And if I one day was to be like, I might try listening to country and I'm like driving a Mustang around, people would be like, you're fake. But if I'm in a truck listening to country, they're like, yeah, that checks out. I don't know. Maybe. Maybe. Maybe I'm I mean shoot I don't know you like what you like some hey some days as they say you know some days that broccoli just starts tasting good you ever heard that saying no but it also got to the point where Jake and I would play GTA and out of nowhere he's
Starting point is 00:19:51 just like, I'm going to switch it to the country station. Well I did that to troll you. And then I would immediately jump out the car, get in my car and just follow him to the next location. We'd be in a helicopter. We wouldn't be talking. There'd be like a solid 30 seconds of silence that goes by. And I just went to the country station.
Starting point is 00:20:14 I just jumped out of my parachute. And you just see Trace's character. You're just like, get out of there. No words either. It's not, oh, if you don't turn this off, I'm jumping out. No warning. I would just jump out. No warning. It's not. Oh, if you don't turn this off, I'm jumping. I would just jump out. No warning. Oh my god. Okay. So that went on for longer. That topic went on for longer than I
Starting point is 00:20:32 thought. Sorry. Sorry. No, no, no. I was expecting you to just be like, fuck you. And I'd be like, okay, moving on. Good point. Um, I thought of this question today because you have a knack for trolling me. I do. And you and Corbin both share this same, I don't know what you would call it, but I just, when something bad or misfortunate happens to me, you both find so much joy and happiness in it and my simple question is why?
Starting point is 00:21:16 And it's it's not just you. I think I just have this bad tendency to laugh when bad things happen to other people because like I don't know like sometimes because You're such a like happy-go-lucky guy and then when something pisses you off I just find it funny because you're not normally pissed off the same thing went with chase at work Like you know, sure. He's just such a nice dude pretty laid-back But then when he would get mad I couldn't help but to find it funny
Starting point is 00:21:52 Okay, sure because it's kind of like I Don't know seeing something out of the ordinary. Yeah. Yeah, like I'm trying to think of a specific example, but like fucking like tripped and fell Corbin would just be like doubled over laughing like Or I can think of one specific example that kind of pissed you off But we were doing that 2k bracket where we were like let's just put all the teams In a bracket and we'll flip for who gets what team. Okay, I think I remember that.
Starting point is 00:22:28 And I was beating you as one team and you were losing as this team. Like, I don't remember what the teams were. And then at the end of the game, I think I just looked at you and I was like, man, I really wanted your team to win. You were trying to get the pissed off to happen. I was trying to rile you up.
Starting point is 00:22:48 That's fine. I feel like that's pretty common for guys to do is troll each other. Oh yeah. But I don't know what it is with you. You love laughing at my misfortune. I consider myself being a, not so much anymore, but especially when Corbin and I always I consider myself being a Not so much anymore But like especially like when Corbin and I were like roommates in college and coming up in high school
Starting point is 00:23:10 I considered myself so unlucky like the most you would say that a lot the most unfortunate things would happen to me completely out of my control and he right found so much joy and you're kind of similar in the fact that like, it's mainly like video game related, I guess. Usually it's never like, oh, my God, like you're fucking grandpa got cancer. You know, I wouldn't be like, oh, you fool. Your grandpa's got cancer, bro.
Starting point is 00:23:42 That sucks. It's never something like that. It's usually just like I bang my head on something and I don't know. You know what I mean. I just have to laugh. There was actually a real life incident where you were doing something and I laughed at you because it was misfortunate.
Starting point is 00:23:56 Remember when we were taking my sister's dog to Pioneer's Park? For a senior picture. This is such a good story, you should tell the story. And so on the way back, we were kind of finding it a little funny, because this dog had floopy ears. I can't even remember what breed the dog was, but floopy ass ears. And so Jake's kind of like speeding a little bit. This is when I had my Mustang, and she was sticking her head out the window. Yep, she was sticking her head out the window. Yep, she was sticking her head out the window.
Starting point is 00:24:26 Jake's like kind of going maybe like five over to begin with. And then we turn on the South Street. We noticed that she wasn't pulling her head in when I started speeding up. Right. So I was gonna test it. And so Jake floors it. And I think you were going like 60.
Starting point is 00:24:43 You weren't going like, the speed it was 40 so you're definitely over You're going like 60 65 and then a cop dude out of nowhere We just see the lights the worst flip on it was cheating where they were parked Oh, yeah, like parked behind a sign behind a tree behind a bus behind a house Yeah behind a business and a parking lot. Like, there was no chance we would have seen them. And I just see the lights flicker on and I just couldn't help but to laugh
Starting point is 00:25:14 because I'm just like, we didn't need to be doing this, but because it's Jake, I just had to laugh. I think the funny part is because my face probably went like. Yeah, yeah, just utter joy and laughing up my ass off our asses off to just Fuck and then you had even said you're like and I just got a speeding ticket not that long ago My dad's gonna kill me it I
Starting point is 00:25:40 Can help but to laugh. I definitely kept that one hidden. Yeah, I remember pulling over. We were literally a block away from my house. Yes. Yeah, like a football field from your house. And I just remember being like, what am I gonna tell them? I was trying to make the dog's ears flop
Starting point is 00:26:04 because I'll usually go like, is there any reason why, is there any reason you're going that fast? No. Not a good one. No. So I was like, Trace, will you hand me my registration and shit out of the glove box?
Starting point is 00:26:20 And they came up to my window. I remember it was a shit cop. I was just looking straight forward, holding my shit, and they walk up to the window and they're like is there and I just went Like this. Yeah, you didn't give them any time to just ask you any question. You're like, yep. I Just handed them my shit and they're like, yeah, and they took it back. They're like, yep. Here's a here's a ticket That one was like $200 The one before that, I don't know if I've told this story on the pod.
Starting point is 00:26:49 Okay. I don't know if you've even told me the full story. I just remember you told me you got pulled over like prior to this event. So when I got my Mustang, it was less than 24 hours after purchasing that son of a gun. I hadn't even parked it for the night yet.
Starting point is 00:27:09 I was at Sarah's house, my ex, and I was driving back home to my parents. So I was getting on the section of I-80 past Rosa Parks, you know, further up 77. I was getting- So kind of by my parents' house. Kind of, but like further past where I was getting on the exit off of 77 onto.
Starting point is 00:27:33 I don't even know if it's 77 at that point, but I was getting on to I 80. There is a section of I 80 before I get back on the exit to get to my parents' house, and I'm coming down the exit and I'm like, time to open her up, see what she can do. And my foot is on the floor. And it's dark out and I'm watching the needle go past 80, past 90, past 100 and it's still going. And then out of the corner of my eye,
Starting point is 00:28:00 I see a white car parked on the shoulder and I immediately let off the gas and put on the brakes. But they immediately got out and were chasing me down. I pulled over and they go, I got you going 112. Is there any reason? And like, my like little like white whatever when you buy a car is still in the back windshield. Yeah. I'm like I
Starting point is 00:28:27 know I just got it. They're like is there any reason why you're doing this? And I was like no I just got it. I was just I was just seeing what it could do and he's like yeah he's like I get it like you just got the car or whatever but he's like but you know going 112 into 65 and it's kind of slick out here you know that's really dangerous i'm lucky i didn't get because a court date or dude you can i'm pretty sure if you're going fast enough you can get like attempted manslaughter really because technically if you're going that enough, you can get like attempted manslaughter. Really? Because technically, if you're going that fast, they can consider your car a weapon
Starting point is 00:29:10 that you're knowingly, negligently using. Yeah. So I got speeding and I got reckless driving. I didn't get... No, no, no. Which ones? There's careless driving and there's reckless driving. one is worse because I got the not as bad one I think reckless driving is worse. So I got careless driving
Starting point is 00:29:33 He gave me careless driving and that ticket was 450 dollars Which I was gonna just pay off and not tell my dad about. So one morning we were gonna go to IHOP because Sarah was gonna work on some schoolwork, like on her computer, and I got my ticket out and I like set it on the table because I probably set it down
Starting point is 00:30:00 because I was gonna go pee or something before we left. I don't know. But then I forgot it and he left. So I'm such a dumbass and you can feel free to laugh at my misfortune here. I set it on the table for myself because I wanted to do something and I forgot. So when we came back, my dad had seen me setting it out in the open for all to see, like an idiot. So he was sitting in his chair and I was all, I didn't think anything the wiser. So I just walked in and I was being all dumb.
Starting point is 00:30:34 I was like, what's up? My dad just goes, so you got yourself a little speeding ticket. No, no. And I was like, again, I went. And I was like, and he's like, that's fucking ridiculous. And I was like, you weren't supposed to see that. Is that what you said? Yeah. Oh God. And then I disappeared into the basement.
Starting point is 00:30:59 But I paid it, it sucked. $450 down the turlet. Probably a couple a couple points off my license. Yeah, I don't know but He said hello, I don't know if you can see him on the oh yeah. Yeah, you definitely Got them How'd you know what I call them This leads us into another good topic of misfortunate vehicle stuff. I was thinking about this the other day and I don't know what made this come to my mind,
Starting point is 00:31:40 but do you remember when we were driving together? And it was right when I got my license. I had just turned 16. Okay. Picture this. Picturing? You were there, but I don't, but I don't know if you remember. Was I?
Starting point is 00:31:59 Oh yeah, you were in the car with me. Okay. Just say, Oh, when you know what I'm talking about. Okay. Oh. Do you? No. We turned left onto O Street.
Starting point is 00:32:11 Oh, now I know what you're talking about. Do you remember what I'm talking about this story? If we're on like 66 and West O roughly. No, not West O. Or not West O or not West Oh, sorry regular. Oh, yeah Are you doing? so Now that we're on the same page, I'm gonna tell the story to them But I don't know what made me think of this the other day and I forgot it for so long until just recently
Starting point is 00:32:39 But so Trace and I are in the car picture this Trace and I are in the car. Picture this. Trace and I are in the car. I had just gotten my license. Maybe not just gotten it, but I'm 16. Yeah, it was roughly after. I am 16 years old. I think it was the summer after. Yeah. Okay, sure. So we're sophomores in high school while going into our junior year. We turned left onto O Street. Now, I don't remember where we were going,
Starting point is 00:33:09 but I remember we had to get onto 48th or something like that. So I was like, oh shit, I need to be in the right lane. So there was a car in front of us and a car behind us, and I was like, oh shit, I need to get in the right lane. So I quickly got into the right lane, sorta cutting off the person behind us. Basically I wove in between these two cars,
Starting point is 00:33:36 there was a car behind me and a car in front of me. The car in front of us proceeds to slam on their brakes in the middle of the road. Right. It's there's no shoulder it's just a street. Yeah. Proceeds to slam on his brakes and we go what the and then we see a guy get out of his car. Get out. And we're like what? And you're right it was summer because we had our window rolled down. And I remember this car it was a blue truck. Was it?
Starting point is 00:34:09 Right in front of us, yeah, because I think about that day sometimes. Really? Just randomly, and once you get to what you're gonna say, I'll tell you what I remember. I want, okay. Well, do you wanna say what you remember, and then I'll say what I remember?
Starting point is 00:34:21 No, because this part, like what I think back to, comes after what you're talking about. Okay, okay. So from my memory, a guy gets out of the car and just starts like just walking, stomping back towards our car. And we're like, what? Like, what is going on?
Starting point is 00:34:42 At first, I think in my mind, I was like, I didn't know what to think. I didn't either. Cause... There's no reason this guy should be getting out of his- A car slams on its brakes in front of you and immediately gets out and comes walking up to you. What- What else am I supposed to think?
Starting point is 00:35:00 He walks up to our window and he goes... This is my car and so is that one. Do some dumbass shit like that again and I will fuck you up. Yep. And I think you just said, I'm sorry. I was like, okay, I'm sorry, sir. And then he turned and went and got back in his car
Starting point is 00:35:17 and drove away. Yep. And what he was doing was, for the audio only people, he pointed at his truck, the car in front of us and pointed at the car behind us because i think his wife or girlfriend was following him and we like cut her off and so we were able to witness a very unique um a a very niche if you will a moment in road rage where one experiences road rage for someone else yeah because we cut off the person behind him right he got out and shoot our ass i don't get it
Starting point is 00:36:01 and so that's what i always like will randomly think about and I'll be like, what could we have said to this guy to just humble him? Right. And in the moment we're like, oh my God, we almost died. But then as a little time passed, we both kind of relieved ourselves in the fact that we were like dude we're both 16 years old. Minors. He could not have physically assaulted us because he would have went to jail. I was gonna say if he did we would have gotten some lawsuit money. Not that I was willing to just like go ahead. Punch me in the face. But of course as anyone knows knows, when an argument occurs
Starting point is 00:36:48 and then enough time goes by, you're like, man, you know what I should have said to her? That's kind of what Trace and I were going back and forth talking about. We sure just been like, you can't fucking touch us. We're fucking 16, idiot. Or something like that. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:37:03 Yeah, anything. But I don't know what made me think of that recently, but I I completely forgot about that little I think about that from time to time Yeah Occasionally, it'll just pop in my head and I'll be like we should have just said what are you gonna do? Fuck up some miners, right? Right, you know like no Yeah Like chill buddy, we're both fucking sixteen. Mm hmm.
Starting point is 00:37:28 You did, we did the right thing. We did. We didn't escalate the situation. Right. Because someone that is that unhinged. Could have done anything. And you don't want to find out. Mm hmm. For all we know, he could have had a gun.
Starting point is 00:37:48 You know, like I've heard stories about people that I just was listening to a podcast episode where they were talking about how they were at a gas station and some guy just like peeled out of there in his like in his vehicle just like skidded his tires and bolted out of the parking lot. Yeah. And the guy watching it went like shook his head in disappointment and the guy slammed on the brakes threw it in reverse backed up to him and went like you got a **** problem and he's like, you got a fucking problem? And he's like, what? He's like, you acting like you know me, homie.
Starting point is 00:38:29 Oh no. And the guy's like, no, I don't. And then he like flew out of there. And the same thing occurs where in the time you're so taken off guard, you're just like, I'm sorry, and then they leave. And then you go, man, I was a bitch, I should have said something.
Starting point is 00:38:47 But you don't say something. Because just like I said, if someone is crazy enough to get pissed off to the point of fighting over someone going, that's the kind of person that's willing to murder for an for oh, yeah an argument or Anything just to do it. You know like when you see those news stories like a Person was shot at a gas station this morning. That's the scenario Where that happens yes, mm-hmm?
Starting point is 00:39:20 So I think we did the right thing, but oh we did yeah, but I wish I could go back in time I just be like, Fuck you! What are you going to do? Go get you some McDonald's! I'm like, you better hope I don't hop out this fucking Mazda! Yeah, we're in the RAV4.
Starting point is 00:39:38 Were we in the Mazda? Yeah, I'm pretty sure. Because I don't think I had that Ford Taurus yet. The champagne. No, we were definitely in an SUV. You were in the Mazda? It had to have been the Mazda. I think we were like, you should have just looked at him and then just rolled your window. That's what he just goes, yeah, probably and punches the window out. the window out. You've seen those videos. Yeah. But then like also,
Starting point is 00:40:08 what is his girlfriend going to think? Or wife? If he were to just punch a glass, pull you out the car, and she sees a 16 year old getting beat by your husband or boyfriend. You know what she's thinking? I love that man. You know what she's thinking? I love that man. You know what she's
Starting point is 00:40:26 thinking? This is gonna sound horrible, but maybe it's true. Maybe he'll tire himself out and he won't do it to me. That's true too. That could be the case for all we know. She might be like, at least he's doing it to them. Yeah. Cause I don't know. What kind of guy does that. I probably the same kind of oh my god Speaking of Casey's this literally just happened the other day. Okay, Lena and I were at Casey's We're getting ready to leave on our trip. I think we were we were literally getting ready to leave for our trip Mm-hmm, and this guy comes in with his girlfriend and he is He's like tatted up. he's got a chain on I think he was a white guy he might have been I don't know I think he was white he might have been like Italian or something like that you know where it's
Starting point is 00:41:19 kind of like they're white but they don't look entirely white, you know what I mean? Yeah, okay. Look it. But he goes up and his girlfriend is just standing there straight, not saying a word at the cash register. And he's going, I want, and he's like saying the cigarettes he wants. And then he's like, actually I want those. And then she like changes and he's like, actually get he wants and then he's like actually I want those and then she like changes
Starting point is 00:41:45 He's like actually get me the and then says something else. He's like no the and then she like gets something else He's like actually I want the like he makes her change like four or five And then she finally gets them and then they're getting ready to check out and he's like saying some crazy story And he's like f-bombing and just to the to the lady checking them out okay, yeah the the clerk and And then eventually they leave and she was like I did not like that I know I bet I'm sure you didn't yeah, and then we didn't see her cuz we were standing behind them but she was like that girl was black and blue in the face and
Starting point is 00:42:28 I like was like well do you have cameras outside where you could see like their license plate and she's like I don't know and we like I looked up over like out the window and the lady like walked out from behind the counter and looked out the front door and And behind the counter and looked out the front door and looked at their license plate and wrote it down. Really? Because it looked like a girl that had been hit or something like that.
Starting point is 00:42:53 It was crazy. I mean girls, don't get me wrong, I'm sure there's part of you that wants to be like, no, fuck that guy. He's clearly doing something to that girl. But the majority of you is probably like, I don't want to say anything or speak up because if he's willing to beat her. Well, what you do in that moment
Starting point is 00:43:14 is you report it to the police and let them deal with it. Don't say anything. No, don't say anything to that guy. Let him go. If you get their license plate. All the better. That, then the cops can go and find them
Starting point is 00:43:29 and track them down and deal with it accordingly. But, and the sad reality of it is that woman cannot get help unless she wants it. Yeah. Because if she's like, no, it's okay, he doesn't hit me. And even if she's lying, they could be like, OK, if you don't want help. Yeah, I got to take your word, which is really sad. But yeah. On a lighter note, when I came home today from work,
Starting point is 00:43:56 what I was going to tell you about the cats, I saw a little Martin here sitting in the hallway by the bathroom door, looking at it. And I'm like, why by the bathroom door looking at it and I'm like why is the bathroom door closed and I opened it and Rue is sitting on the counter in the bathroom so she locked herself in the bathroom today I don't know how dude I swear these fucking cats well on the topic of cats should we look up our thing oh Oh, yeah, okay So oh, yeah, tell me your thing about gizmo. Okay, cuz I've been talking a lot this episode
Starting point is 00:44:29 So I used to have a cat when I lived at my parents house Which was my brother's cat that he had an apartment but then he moved to a different place that didn't allow cats so we acquired her and She was an outdoor cat slash indoor. So during the day she'd meow to go outside. So we'd let her out at night. She'd be outside the window wanting to come back. So there's one night I had let her in.
Starting point is 00:44:58 I've been playing video games. I was- Cause she was an indoor outdoor cat. Yeah. And I was like, I was playing video games. I knew she was down in the basement cause whenever she was an indoor outdoor cat. Yeah, and I was like I was playing video games I knew she was down in the basement because whenever she was there She mostly just stayed in the basement because I'd shut the door Would you let her in and out of the window or just out the front or the back door? But anyway, what time was this?
Starting point is 00:45:19 So I probably went to bed around 2 a.m. That night. Okay getting tired I probably went to bed around 2 a.m. That night. Okay getting tired Go to sleep letter in I let her in yep, and then I played video games in the basement she was down hanging out playing whatever and So I go to bed And I shit you not like once I fully fell asleep that night mm-hmm I was awoken to some creepy fucking noises like noises I've never heard before and inside the basement in the basement and
Starting point is 00:45:53 this was back when I was doing like my scary movie kind of like I'd watch one just for fun sure like by yourself by myself just Just for fun. Okay. And I'm hearing these noises. What did it sound like? Like howling from the cat? Yeah, but like obviously it's to me in the middle of the night it sounded demonic. You're like, that's a demon. I was like-
Starting point is 00:46:18 100% demon. I was in my bed and I shit you not, I was just laying there under the covers like, I don't want to investigate this noise because that's how- What did it sound like? Please describe it. I know you're not a voiceover artist, but what did it sound like? It was like... MMMMMMM like how is it? Oh, right? And I was just like every scary movie I watch someone's like let me go investigate this noise and then they die
Starting point is 00:46:54 They die and so has like fuck it's been going on for five minutes straight And so I was like I gotta go investigate And so it sounded like it was coming from underneath that like couch that was also a pullout bed at the time. And I go up to the couch, I'm like putting my ear up to next to it cause I'm like, I don't wanna go under there if it's not under there. And it wasn't, it was coming from the window sill.
Starting point is 00:47:22 And the curtains were closed because at night, when you're trying to sleep down in that basement that street light that's like right outside my house just shines right in there. So I opened the curtains sure enough gizmos there in the like on the inside yeah of the window sill and I'm like what it was gizmo making those noises yeah I I was like, what are you doing? And like, sure enough, I'm like looking outside and there's a cat just sitting, like a gray and white cat just sitting on our front steps,
Starting point is 00:47:57 just looking down at Gizmo. Oh. And then so I kind of just picked Gizmo up and I kind of like knock on the window like the glass and then the cat went away My heart was beating Dude it could have been a demon but Maybe a demon in cat form good skinwalker Lena
Starting point is 00:48:21 Skinwalker. Lena. Rue does not like when other cats come to visit. If we leave the main door upstairs open and another cat comes up to the glass door and Rue sees them, she attacks the cat through the door. Like just flaming on the glass. Yeah, and like screeching. Right. Like really loud.
Starting point is 00:48:47 So Gizmo, as we said, was an indoor outdoor cat. And before the pod, we were talking about, because I was talking about, our mechanic at work was talking about how we should get a coarse cat to scare the geese away or whatever. And in my mind I was like, well, I wonder how far like a cat would venture because like golf courses is an expansive place right with a lot of acres.
Starting point is 00:49:15 So we were like, I wonder how far an indoor outdoor cat would actually venture. Well, I looked up how far do outdoor cats roam? Okay. On average outdoor cats typically roam within a range of 40 to 200 meters from their home. While male cats generally venture further than females. However, the distance can vary greatly
Starting point is 00:49:37 depending on factors like the cat's environment, whether they are neutered and availability of food with some cats potentially roaming up to a mile away from home. Jeez. Which, if a mile is on the far extreme end, that's not even really that far.
Starting point is 00:49:53 No. 40 to 200 meters is not far at all. No. That's like a football field. Well, like 200 meters would be. Three. Three football fields, two, four, six. 100 feet, two football fields, two football fields. How far would hey, how far would you venture if you if we let you outside? Five feet. I have a feeling
Starting point is 00:50:25 he'd be like yeah I was gonna say be so scared and run back but yeah I was I was thinking about the fact of like if we had a cat I don't think it would it would probably just hang out around the shop right I don't think it would be like I'm gonna go look for a geese today. And even to the extent, let's say this cat roams a mile, how big is your golf course? I'm sure it might not be a full mile. In a straight line, maybe. Maybe.
Starting point is 00:51:01 And what's the say? Because paint. Well, if it was weaving, cause the golf course weaves around. Like if you follow the cart path, it's a lot further than if it just traveled straight through like through all the houses in the neighborhood. So I don't know.
Starting point is 00:51:20 Because of a combination of instincts and lifestyle, all cats wild, domestic domestic semi-domesticated Indoor outdoor and indoor outdoor indoor outdoor and indoor outdoor are territorial So if they have them in mind what their area is they're gonna kind of stick to their area So I would imagine gizmo probably didn't venture outside your neighborhood No, probably so like you said going over to pioneers Park, that's why I was like, I wonder if she would go that far. And I don't, maybe like you just researched, she probably didn't, but there were foxes
Starting point is 00:51:54 in the neighborhood. Sure. Like just as last- It is possible, yeah. Just this last 4th of July, like I was just sitting outside my front house or front yard of my parents house Mm-hmm and just in the driveway and I'm just watching the fireworks waiting for Alyssa to get home to light off the fireworks And should you not a Fox just runs by me on on the street. I was like, oh sure I was like that would make sense. You're close enough to the edge of town I feel like where it wouldn't be hard for a Fox to just roam in right
Starting point is 00:52:23 But yeah, I mean we see foxes all the time. I just saw two deer. Yeah. Because we were the golf course is right on the edge of like the southwest edge of town. So and some people some people put GoPros on their on their cat on their outside. Yeah, those videos are kind of funny because they're like, I wonder what my cat gets into when it's just roaming about.
Starting point is 00:52:48 Same with how people put cameras inside their house just to keep an eye on their pets. Like, what do you do when I'm gone? Dude, have you seen that video of this kid is like walking out of the kitchen of their house and he accidentally steps on The cat's tail and the cat like yeah, and then the other cat chases that kid down It was like clawing him. Yeah, just fucking going to down and then the dog runs after the cat
Starting point is 00:53:17 That's attacking the kid and chases it away. Yeah, the most hectic like ten seconds of video Oh, it's not that long of a video. I Can't remember what reminded me of that the other day, but I thought that was fucking funny. So now that we've got a decent buzz going, or at least I do, since I've been laying off the sauce for a while. Yeah, I was going to say. I don't know what you're talking about.
Starting point is 00:53:39 As any good conversation goes. And especially with us, Trace, I feel like we need to go back to our roots here and do what we do best when we're sitting down and bullshitting, and that is, let's come up with a million dollar idea. Okay. I feel like, whenever we're sitting around
Starting point is 00:54:00 and we don't have much to talk about, we're always like, dude, what if, or picture this, or I've got this idea to kick it off, to get our brains kind of moving a little bit. For an example, and I don't remember what day this was, or where we were, I think it might have been at school, but we're like, let's come up with a zombie apocalypse plan.
Starting point is 00:54:22 I think that was in your basement, actually. Was it? Yeah, I think so. So a zombie apocalypse plan. I think that was in your basement actually. Was it? Yeah, I think so. So our zombie apocalypse plan was we're gonna stake out at my house, cut the stairs off. You even like, wrote it all out. Yeah, you drew it all out and you were like, just let's erase this, cause this is where this would be. And then I was like, well, we can sit upstairs
Starting point is 00:54:43 and we'll have, in all of our imaginations. We have like military grade. Yeah, for some reason we got it. I don't know. Just ignore this. But we have a Browning 30 caliber at the top. And so we can mow down the zombies that I guess are in my house, but can't get to us because we're upstairs.
Starting point is 00:55:02 Yeah, the stairs is deleted. in my house, but can't get to us because we're upstairs. Yeah, the stairs is deleted. But we'll have a tunnel with a ladder that's, there's a hole drilled through from the top to the basement so we can go in the top and the basement, but the main floor is off. Because in my mind, I'm like, they're going to be able to get into the main floor, but we can take the base, the upstairs in the basement. And they're like, and then we're like, and we can go out on the roof and just pick off zombies with our snipers we have military yeah yeah and you may be asking yourself guys well how do you get food
Starting point is 00:55:35 and we're like simple then Paul we have a pizza delivery driver come in a snow plow yep that just most through all the zombies in the street slings us up some pizzas and takes a pizza slingshot and flings it up onto the roof. Bada bing, we got food. For whatever reason, Pizza Hut's still open. And we still have electricity and Wi-Fi. It's all accounted for, guys. I wrote it all out. We were going to play zombies while also killing zombies. I wrote it all out. Yep. We were going to play zombies while also killing zombies.
Starting point is 00:56:09 So that's not really a million dollar idea, but this is the kind of things that Trace and I would come up with. I believe also our end game plan was that I would become rich. Yeah. I would just be- In all of our fantasies. I would just become a baseball player and you would just live with me. Yeah. And the pool house or something. Yeah. And we are gonna have a massive aquarium with sharks. Yep.
Starting point is 00:56:34 And we're gonna have foxes for pets. Yep. Which that's actually doable nowadays. You can own a fox as a pet. So I might see that morally wrong, but Trace, you always have million dollar ideas. Okay. Now, we'll try to be politically correct here in our ideas, but what is it? Do you have anything that's came to your mind lately? I know you're always stewing in the old noggin. I mean, recently I've lost that imagination as I want to spit it out. That part of my brain is just gone.
Starting point is 00:57:13 It's just gone. It's molded away. I've got black mold in my brain. And don't know how I got there. You almost got me, but the can is empty. Damn it. And this doesn't necessarily have to be an idea that makes us money. Well, I guess that doesn't make any sense if I'm saying it's a million dollar million dollar idea, but it's worth nothing. It's a million dollar idea, but it doesn't need to make us any money.
Starting point is 00:57:40 What I mean is just like a revolutionary game changing idea. OK. I don't know. I got one actually tell me and This might be piggybacking off of one of your previous episodes But how about we get a cooking website? That has no ads It's just a website that gives you the instructions doesn't give long It's just a website that gives you the instructions. It doesn't give long paragraphs of this is what I would do in this circumstance.
Starting point is 00:58:09 This is great. This is great. This is the ingredients. What do we call it? No BS. Just fucking cook. Dot dot org. We'll get it.
Starting point is 00:58:17 We'll get it. Or just fucking cook. Dot government dot edu because we're educating you on how to cook. But no, because it's a website that gives you the instructions. It's just a website that gives you the instructions. It doesn't give long paragraphs of this is what I would do in this circumstance. This is great. This is great. This is the ingredients. What do we call it? No BS. Just fucking cook.gov. Just fucking cook..gov.
Starting point is 00:58:25 Government. .edu. Because we're educating you on how to cook. But no, because when I heard you say that in your podcast, it immediately clicked in my brain. Where it's like, I've looked up recipes multiple times and I have to scroll through those. And you're like, where is it? Yep.
Starting point is 00:58:41 I have to like deep dive into one page and I'm like, add? Okay, it's not there and I end up never finding it. So like I think I might have been looking up like a chili recipe or something and it was like The you look up picture this you go on the internet and you're like I want to make Chili mm-hmm, and you type in chili I want to make chili. And you type in chili recipe, and you click on the first link. And what pops up?
Starting point is 00:59:11 A paragraph that says, winter is the perfect time for cold weather. And it's like, no, I don't care. I know this. That's why I want to make this. It's summer and I want chili. I don't give a fuck. That's true, yeah.
Starting point is 00:59:27 I don't care what color your underwear is, I want to know how many fucking cans of beans to buy at the store. Jesus Christ. Green, by the way. So it's called Just Fucking Cook. Just fucking cook. It's a black and white website. Just like a no it's just white black words black letters and it just at the top maybe even slightly bigger letters the title of the thing you're trying to cook chili and
Starting point is 01:00:01 the only image there is is just a generic picture of what you're trying to make. I want the pictures to be so generic. They've even got like the watermark over it. Yes. Because it's like a clip art. Well, to do it. Bowl of chili.
Starting point is 01:00:17 And so what I guess what we would have to do is we'll bite the bullet and scroll through all these God forsaken websites until the part where we finally somehow think we find the recipe and then we'll just pipe it. We'll get the WordPress going. It's like when Martin Luther translated the Bible from German into, or no, he translated it into German so that people could read it. We're gonna go into these fucking websites and get the recipes and then stamp them
Starting point is 01:00:52 and then, I don't know. And then at the end of every recipe, it'll just say, now just fucking cook. Now just fucking cook it. That's all I want. That's a great idea. That's all I want, especially because I've been cooking a lot recently. That is all I want. That's a great idea. All I want, especially because I've been cooking a lot recently. That is a million dollar idea. Actually, it can't be a million
Starting point is 01:01:10 dollar idea because we can't put ads on it. Right. Like we said, it's a million dollar idea but worth literally nothing. We're like, how could we put this behind a paywall? They're like, dude, guys, there's this great new app called Just Fucking Cook that what they did How could we put this behind a video? They're like dude guys There's this great new app called just fucking cook that what they did was it's a couple of guys Having a couple beers that came up with this idea where you know those websites that fucking you can't find the recipe Well, they made it simple and they just put it right at the top and they didn't have any other bullshit, right? the app is five dollars, but Or like maybe we actually
Starting point is 01:01:48 it's a five dollar monthly subscription. I got that wrong. Maybe we join it with our other million dollar idea of selling cooking equipment. And there's just a link at the bottom of every cooking recipe that just as a page of cooking equipment. There does need to be some sort of simplified version of all that bullshit.
Starting point is 01:02:06 Right. Oh, like chili. Like you go down to the bottom, there's that link, you click on it, and it'll just take you to what you would need to then make the chili. Like it'll pull up a link of me at the grocery store going red beans and it's a one second clip and I put it in the cart. And then there's the next link and then I go the other beans and then I put that in the cart tomato one pound of hamburger and I put it in the cart and then at the very end it's me just going good now just fucking cook fucking cook it's a
Starting point is 01:02:43 great idea great idea do you have? Off the top of your head? Not really. I was counting on you doing it. I can riff off of it. Okay. I was depending on you for the content for the episode. A lawnmower that bails the grass as you go. Is that a thing already? No, let's make it a thing Bails the grass it bails the I don't know how it would work Logistically wall, but the mower would Preferably be in the front Yeah, it'd be kind of complicated if the baler was in the front yeah
Starting point is 01:03:27 Fuck it. Is this a push mower? Cuz that would be pretty Heavy that would be nah, it would have to be a riding mower with like a small baler on the back We just upscale to big-ass farming equipment. I think the reason well those are she's oh giant balers are a thing but for the sake of you're thinking so like a an average Joe could cut his lawn and sell the grass it it'd be like a combine kind of thing where the front would be a mower and the back would just have this like slanted thing that just feeds into the baler right without having a trailer hitch attached but what you're pitching is for the average American person mowing their lawn We would have small. Yeah, we'd have smaller ones
Starting point is 01:04:10 Because what I'm saying is Hey, balers do exist in real life, right like individual giant. Yeah, but they're for like big bales if what we were trying to do is make it a market for individuals I Feel like it would be possible. It's just we were trying to do is make it a market for individuals, I feel like it would be possible. It's just we would have to take what they did with the giant ones and just make it miniature. Yeah, compress it. The only issue I could see with that is just being the amount of time and engineering it
Starting point is 01:04:40 would take to go into miniaturizing something like that would like outweigh the cost of how much you would make from selling the little amount of grass it would produce. Well, hear me out. I might sound like a hater. Hear me out. For shitting on that idea, but. All you middle-aged wives out there. Lena, listen up.
Starting point is 01:04:59 Who decorate for Halloween slash Thanksgiving that like to put bales outside of your front yard make your husband buy this and then go what's it called bail that bitch bail that bitch bitch and bailer bail that bitch dot com late Lena do you have any million dollar ideas? Not that I'm willing to say on air. Fuck, you're right. What if someone takes them? Someone's gonna take them.
Starting point is 01:05:28 Trademark. Yeah. If I say trademark it, that's how it works. This whole episode is trademarked. Sponsored by bailthatbitch.com. Yep. Babe, the million dollar idea we came up with was one of those cooking websites,
Starting point is 01:05:43 but it has none of the fucking bullshit ads and like the paragraphs leading up to it where it's like, so you're a retired... Ben. Yeah. And... And you want to cook. And you want to make muffins. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:05:59 None of that bullshit. In 1942, muffins were invented. Right, right. there's the amount of bullshit they put before those and you can't even saying well and sometimes you'll skip way to the bottom then you've gone too far and you've gone too far and you're like it's somewhere in here I don't know where I need a college degree to navigate this fucking website like it's almost like if it was a word doc it'd be a book.
Starting point is 01:06:30 Like you just keep scrolling, you see the pages keep going up and you're like doing control f to like try to find keywords. Yeah. Like, oh my god, it fucking says chili 16 times. Yep. Ridiculous. So bitch and Baylor, bitch and Baylor. I could see maybe like if you're like semi like, like Lena's dad has like goats that would eat grass. That would eat grass, yeah. This would be a perfect little thing. It would just be about trying to even out the cost of it per the benefit of it. Right, right. Because I could see there being a lot of complications
Starting point is 01:07:11 with all the moving parts. Yeah. And miniaturizing it. But we might have something. Another million idea that we'll gain no profit from. Well. Maybe some profit. Okay, so let's say we're going to take this to Shark Tank.
Starting point is 01:07:26 Right. Let's do our pitch. OK. I just show up and I'm like, buy this. Give me money. We walk in, we're like, what's up, bitches? Yep. Have you ever wanted to bail? I'm Trace Johnson. This is Jake Gillum. I'm Jake Gillum. And we're trying to pitch to you the bitch in Baylor Have you ever mowed your grass and thought man all of this grass is just going to waste
Starting point is 01:07:53 Yep, we're throwing it in the trash can and wheeling it down to the corner How much money do you think I can make off of this? Well, I'm here to tell you not that much but after years of here to tell you, not that much. But after years of saving off the money from the grass you would sell, you might net an even gain from the amount that you spent on the bitch and bailer. What we ask for is $3.2 million for a 1 one percent company. We're just trying to sell the company. We want five thousand dollars for a ninety nine percent share in the company.
Starting point is 01:08:33 Let them have more than us. Like, we really need this off the ground. Please, please give us money. For those reasons, I'm out. They're like, I live in L.A. and we don't have living grass. And for those reasons, I'm out they're like I live in LA and we don't have living grass and for those reasons I'm out I've got turf I've got turf in my field I live in Arizona my yard is rocks I was gonna say my yard is just sand and beyond that more sand and then that one bitch is like would like, would this work on like cactus? Like, no, it's for grass.
Starting point is 01:09:06 Do you want it to work on cactus? They're like, we leave and come back in. We're like introducing the cactus slicer. Have you ever accidentally bumped into a cactus and been like, ow, that hurt. Well, we're here to tell you we got the thing for you, which is. The cactus slicer, the cactus slicer. Now, what this does is not only slice cactus, but also. And I'll let my co-host take it from here.
Starting point is 01:09:38 You get the juice, you get the juice, the cactus juice. Not a lot of people know this, but the cactus juice is very nutritious, right? Correct. It provides all sorts of health benefits such as? Yes. It does. It does, in fact, do stuff. And you're definitely gonna want it.
Starting point is 01:09:58 You want it. Plus, if you take the needles from the cactus and you're thinning on top, like I see you over there, you can, you know what I'm saying? Looks like real hair to me. I got another idea actually. Okay, I was ripping there for a minute. I'm like.
Starting point is 01:10:20 Do you ever just go camping and you leave your food out a bear Coyote something gets into your food last last week now you have no food So I introduced no food. Is it safe a nater? It's like a meat thermometer and you just poke it into any plant or mushroom and if the light turns green it's safe for consumption oh if it turns yellow it's good to have a good trip if you know what I mean if it turns red don't eat it unless you want to die dude is it safe anator dude is it safe bitch this is actually kind of a sick idea. This is like trademark. This is like on some sci-fi type shit on gun I feel like I've seen a fucking Adam Driver movie or something where he like takes a plan like puts it in a little
Starting point is 01:11:15 sensor and then it like beep mm-hmm Shit, or maybe it could work on like you see a dead fish the edge of the pond so on like you see a dead fish the edge of the pond so how long has it been dead so what does it do does it calculate the bacteria level or does it like calculate does it just take the entire like biological or whatever genetic makeup of what is in it and it can decide oh it has a bunch of harmful toxins in it right? I was actually kind of a sick idea. I don't know if the technology exists for something like this, but if it did We just trademarked it. We trademarked it so go fuck yourself. You can't take it You can't take it the is it safe inator is it safe bitch
Starting point is 01:12:02 Bitch, it's called the is it safe inator, but our slogan is is it safe bitch? It's called the is it safe inator but our slogan is is it safe bitch Oh That is a million dollar idea At the at the So there's a certain type of grass called POA that like invades. Other grass? Yeah, that invades on like our fairways and stuff.
Starting point is 01:12:32 And it's a big problem and there's not a lot of great ways to like just eradicate it. And I was like, dude, it's called POA? Can you tell the difference by looking at it? Yeah. OK. And I was like, dude, if I could come up with a chemical that worked and call it POA constrictor,
Starting point is 01:12:55 that would be the sickest thing ever. That would be so cool. Now, I'm not a chemist. Nor do I know. We'll just have to go find our local meth dealer. Right, and be like, do you think you can figure this out? Well, we would have to ask him, first of all, do you make your own meth?
Starting point is 01:13:13 And if they say yes, we'll be like, you're the man we need. What if they don't? Then we just turn them away. We just say, no, you're fucking. You just sell it. Then we take out our neuralyzer and we're like, and we're like, your name is John. You have a family of three. You like going to Husker games and you need to lay off the beer a little bit. Clean up your life. Right. Don't do math. And we're like, also you're a big advocate for the bailinator,
Starting point is 01:13:44 bail, bail it bitch. And this is a safe also, you're a big advocate for the bailinator, bail it bitch, and this is a safeinator, and you're gonna take this flyer around and show it to all your friends. And we hand it. Okay. So we just start zapping people and making them sell our product for us.
Starting point is 01:13:59 Right. Why don't we just invent the Neuralizer? We probably should invent the Neuralizer first. First. And then that way, when we go door to door, Why don't we just invent the Neuralizer? We probably should invent the Neuralizer first. And then that way when we go door to door asking if they want to buy the Bail it bitch or is it Safeinator? They're like, it says no fucking soliciting motherfucker. And we're like, you want to buy it. You're going to buy this.
Starting point is 01:14:20 And then they walk away. Write a check. For $350. Right. Is that for the which one? What's that for? And then they walk away right a check right or three hundred fifty dollars right? How is that for the which one is what's that for 350? What's that for? Is it safe in a yeah?
