welcome to the what the fuck in the world podcast I'm Jake that's Camden Reese Wellman and we are the grass daddy

Cam just took a fat bong rip and we're about to get this thing underway so have you ever taken a bong rip yes fuck I can't even imagine how much that'd get me dickered.

You've never taken a bong rip? No, dude. I took one little hit off a joint and about died. Greened out. Damn near. Fat bong rips. Fucking A. Welcome to the Grass Daddy's podcast.

I hope you guys are all having a wonderful day coming to you from Audio Only Land. I just got back from another excursion. Oh, yeah? What was that like? I tried to go skydiving in all 50 states. Within the same jump. Yeah. I was in a wingsuit.

Yeah, and then I crashed at 49. Yeah. Yeah, making it to Hawaii, that's a lot harder than people think. Yeah, it turns out, swimming with a wing suit. suits a lot hard really hard right going from california people don't realize how far Hawaii actually is from california yeah it's it's a it's a decent job it is and uh and that's the end of that joke but i had so many air tugs you have no idea air tugs yeah i definitely got some people they probably thought it was bird shit nope think again

An airtime, masturbating in the air. Oh, okay. Yeah. So you're, but you're implying that you were going by planes? What? Yeah, sure. Oh, oh, you, oh, you were, okay, yeah. Yeah.

You were hit. I, you were dropping. I was splooging on people. Sploge. Sploge. So if ever there was a day for old jakey poo to have a drink today is that day

I've been trying to cut down on my drinking during the week but today I was going to anyways since we're recording but it's definitely warranted would you like the story now yes what did you do

I didn't do anything except perhaps save myself without realizing it cliffhanger that's a nice setup i'm i'm sure you guys are now interested in what i'm about to say so my truck was making a weird noise uh-oh weird noise happening in the vehicle this wasn't the type of noise though that you can turn up the radio and ignore um it was kind of happening underneath my feet i could feel the vibrations happening on my feet when accelerating or going

down hills or coming to a stop. Yep, you guessed it. Something's going wrong with the old trans. So, or at least I thought. So I did what any good normal person would do and looked up my issue on the interwebs and it said, oh, you've just got low transmission fluid. And I was like, I hope. So I took it into a transmission specific place. They couldn't find anything wrong with it initially and the guy was like i don't think anything's wrong with it and then he's like but i'm going to have my master tech that's what he's he's like that's what i call him my master tech basically a guy that like specializes in this shit yeah um come in and he was going to look at it and so they did a little bit more testing on it got the heat up on it and they said yeah it feels

like uh kind of like you're going over like rumble bars or whatever i'm like yeah that kind of describes it and so they looked into it called me and they said my tort converter in my transmission was el fuckoed so oh boy he said uh after all the labor and stuff on that the price was um in the mid six thousands so and then he said that the seals that they would have to break to get in there he'd want to replace also so when it was all said and done i was looking at a seventy five hundred dollar bill and i went do you have a payment plan I'm going to skip over some of the more embarrassing stuff related to my credit score. We won't get into that.

But basically, I was scrambling a little bit. And I was about a centimeter away from trading in my truck to get something else. Not that I had totaled it, but because I'm still making payments on it. like I'm almost done like I've got two years left on it out of the six year um you know I've got like a 72 month or whatever yeah yeah on it and so I was like well shit I'm gonna be paying that off and paying off the shit going into it for I don't know how long probably another year right so I called the guy back I was like, I'm going to take it.

I appreciate everything you've done for me because this guy also has been a G. He's like, you know, reaching out to an expert guy, getting me a, he's like, right now we're actually just coming off of, we're doing $500 discounts on labor. But I'm going to talk to my, I'm going to talk to my manager or a guy higher up than him and see if there's any way they can, he's like i talked to him and he's going to let me put it on for you so he's been kind of pulling some

strings um but i i called this guy back was like i'm going to take it i appreciate everything you're doing but just with my financial situation right now i'm still making payments on it and he was like luckily and i mean seriously this guy has been fucking so helpful he's like well how how much longer do you have on it and i was like two years and he's like do you still have it under warranty and i was like and then a light bulb went off in my head and i was like i'm pretty sure i did get like a power train warranty on it so i was like i'm going to call you back so i called um the dealership that i got it from and they looked it up and they're like yep it you have a power train warranty that is still active it's active until like 2027

which is in two years, or until 140,000 miles, which I'm still under. And I was able to get them to send me over a copy to prove it and also what it all covers. And basically the torque converter is something underneath what it covers. So technically I still have a warranty for that. So thank God when I bought my truck. and the little thing, there's like all these different warranty packages, the only one I got was the power train warranty, which I paid like $2,000 for. So I'd be paying triple what I paid for the warranty to throw a new tranny into my truck that's going to fall apart around before it goes out. Yeah.

So going from there, I called the guy back and was like, I checked. with Sid Dillon. I do have a warranty still active. And he literally went, let's go. And I could hear him pounding his desk in the background. This guy has been so cool. And he was excited for me because he seems like a nice guy. It's like obviously he like doesn't feel like robin $7,000 from a 28-year-old. Okay. Well, I'm telling you, the average person, an average person can't just walk in somewhere and drop $7,000. right and like when when this was all said and done he was like you know i would do this for anyone but especially for you because you know a young guy that doesn't have his whole life figured out yet you know what i mean so but anyways i told the guy the transmission guy i go said

dillon said i was trying not to name them but it doesn't matter they're a big ass corporation So Dylan said That I have to take my truck there And he basically was like That's bullshit I was like, huh? And he's like You don't, they just want the business

You don't have to take it there We've already got it here We've already got it looked at And we know exactly what needs done with it He's like call them back And find out who your warranty is through And their number And then I will call the warranty place

And I was like, okay So I got him the number he called the warranty place and he's like oh yeah we actually know uh we do business with them and basically they're going to send over an inspector tomorrow to just basically verify that everything was wrong with it that we found is actually wrong with it and then we'll go um and then they'll go over you know what all they're willing to cover or what they you know yeah based on what needs to be done with it what they will actually cover with the warranty and he's like we actually know this inspector very well so that whole you guys

got to bring it to them is complete bullshit. And I was like, okay. I mean, I'm at the point now where I don't really care who does it as long as it gets done well. And I don't have to spend a shit ton of money. Yeah, no shit. Because the other thing, too, is, so I had to pay the transmission place $50, which they were running a deal on, apparently. And then the master tech. Their inspection fee.

Yeah. Yep. And then the master tech or whatever. which I'm picturing is like a men and black guy that comes in wearing sunglasses with a silver briefcase and fucking like black leather gloves and the hush falls over the crowd as he walks in the door this I when he said master tech that's what I was picturing give me a minute and I'll let you talk it you're fine I'm just fucking we haven't been together on here for a while and I'm just no you're fine anyways so um so the other thing too is I

would have to pay them their inspection fee and then if i was to take it to sit dillon which don't get me wrong sid dillan's been really helpful and great to me it's just it doesn't make sense to then take it to them pay them an inspection fee to possibly not do everything when i've already got it at a transmission specific place that's going to probably do a better job yeah because essentially what he told me is i'm going to have to get a remanufactured transmission because the components of he from what I understand

the components of the torque converter the torque converter itself I think he said that like the outside of it or whatever doesn't really break it's the stuff that's inside it that gets fucked up or something or I don't know

basically I have to get a remanufactured I basically have to get a new transmission when it's all said and done and he he made it sound like the remanufactured transmission they would do he's like it's better than anything Ford would put in it so from from what I've gained from this whole thing is this guy seems like he's doing his best not to jip me well in your warranty company might also just say let's just get a new transmission and put a new transmission in it I don't know.

It's whatever they're willing to cover. That's why the inspector's got to go in there, and then they'll go over what all they can do for me. So, he said after getting the new seals, which he still recommends I do, after that's all said and done, I'm looking at more closer to like $350 versus, which sounds a lot better than,

7,500. Yeah, no shit. Do you have a payment plan? So when I'm telling you... He's like, yeah, 7,500 in full. That's her payment plan. So when I'm telling you that I have a true need to be sucking down this Miller light... What was your, like, nobody can see you, but was your, what was your facial expression when he said 7,500?

Probably something to the effect of rubbing my forehead. and brushing my hair around. I was on the phone at work just pacing around outside in the cold. Just pacing around. I mean, I barely have two nickels to rub together. Not really. But that's what it feels like sometimes when you've got bills and you're going paycheck to paycheck.

The best, like, honestly, the worst thing is, though, is you like trade it in you're only going to get like with the fucked up transmission they'll probably give you like two gram first like your pickup now you could probably potentially get like 18 16 I have no idea and if I took it to a dealership I would probably have to leave the part out about the fucked up transmission yeah and they would know they'd probably so maybe it's i don't know

worse comes to worse posted on facebook marketplace to just be like dude sometimes i don't know like when i traded in my mustang i think they're so eager to make a sale that they're like it's more worth it for us to sell this kid a truck and we'll take in his Mustang and yeah

if it needs some repairs or whatever we'll slap some repairs in there and get it right back out the door. Yeah. So I don't think they're having a guy going, well, we got to give it to our guy, and he's going to do a full diagnostic on every nut and bolt on it. Yeah.

And we're going to need to hold onto it for a day before we know if we can take it from you. It's like, they're like, nope, we'll take it. Yeah. That's like a guy told me he's like, if you ever go to buy a vehicle, request test drive it for a couple days. And he's like...

Is that even a thing? Yeah, you can test drive vehicles for like a couple days. Shit. Well, it might depend on the place, what they're willing to do, but... Yeah, I don't know. But, uh... So... Well, and also depends on if you know them.

Like, I know the guys that work at our car dealership here, so I'd be like... True. So, the inspectors coming... I think the inspector's coming tomorrow. I know my car or I know my truck's power train I know it's under warranty so it's just a matter of I guess I mean technically they have to cover it

if it's within the confines of the agreement that I paid for I mean I've got it on paper I contact the dealership and they emailed me a copy so I have physical proof that I have that warranty I don't know maybe I'm just just being paranoid at this point, but you get told you have to pay $7,500 that you don't have and you start to fucking get a little nervous. Yeah.

Start shaking in your little boots a little bit. Start pacing around, chewing on snowballs. I don't. I'm financially responsible, but. As he hesitates. I don't want a credit card for that reason. Yeah. Because, like, I mean, like, I'm not broke by no means, but, like, where I am now.

I'm, like, so stressed out. Right. And, like, I really have nothing to be stressed out about all my, like, all my living expenses are paid, so, but then again, I'm like, I hate not having money. Right. It, it, it's tough when you don't have money sitting in your account, but if you don't have anything coming up that's going to take that money away, you really don't have anything to worry about until your next paycheck. but it is still nerve-wracking for precisely the reason I encountered today it's not like I have

$30,000 in savings that I'm like oh yeah this is why I got a savings account for a rainy day where I got to replace my fucking transmission it's like I don't have that I got student loans I got truck payments I got rent this is the fucking real world we live in

my dad always told me like right once i was like able to start driving he's like okay you need to save money and you need to go get a hundred dollar bill and fold that thing up as small as you can and put it somewhere in your wallet where you'll never see it like a hundred dollars isn't going to go that far but like he said okay you ever run out of gas or something on the side of the road you can stop somebody stranded and you can stay away yeah and you could stop someone somebody and say, hey, would you run and get me fuel? Would you take me to get fuel if I give you like 50 bucks? And then you can use your other $100 with gas or you run out of money completely. You don't have enough gas to get home. You have $100. Right. But like an emergency

hundred. You're never prepared for like huge expenses like that I guess. You know what I mean? Right. I would argue, just like you said, fucking 90% of the average Americans, if they get told, you need to spend $7,000 right now. I don't think very, I don't think very many Americans would be like, okay, it's going to hurt, but I can do it. Yeah. Most people will be like, I can't. I literally can't. Drive it until it's, yeah, and that's just the thing, though. Our economy we live in is. really honestly changing so drastically and like at such a rapid pace from like years ago

that I think a lot of it is jobs are still how they were what do you mean like I really think it's going to get to the point where our economy is going to be so expensive and companies aren't like they can't afford to pay people enough It's a scary world we live in But then again You think about it And it's like okay Well a lot of these companies

Cars being like that transmission guy Okay Conomy goes up His company can't afford to pay him Well transmissions Labor All that shit's going up So

I don't know It's just Right It's a scary thought And we don't We really don't Normally talk about this But

It was I mean We sit here And we joke we laugh and we drink but i mean at the end of the day we are still just normal guys that experience the everyday scrutiny that is the real world yeah sometimes it is hard basically sometimes it's hard to put on a smile and pretend like everything's hunky dory yeah uh like i honestly got to thinking the other day i'm like you know it's so annoying

like since I turned 21 everybody's like oh save save save save save save like well not since I was 21 but since I first got a job everybody's like save save save save as much money as you can and you're like oh it's fucking $10 here $10 there it's not that big of a deal

but then like the other day I was thinking like okay all the 30 packs of beer I bought since I was 21 just think if I was skipped every other 30 rack I bought buy one the next time I wanted to buy a 30 I don't buy a 30 rack and put that $35 or

$30 into a savings account. True. You would have a decent amount of money. Sure. It's so weird to think about that. It's hard when sometimes you, it's hard when sometimes you feel like, well, I don't have any money to save.

It's all got to go somewhere currently. Well, like, I know a guy that does like really well. I think the biggest thing is, is if you have really good, like, it sounds bad to say, like, influences, but not influences. If you really have somebody there teaching you about money, like, everybody knows about money. Resources? Yeah. Well, yeah, exactly.

Everybody goes, man, I know about money. Yeah, we all know about money. You get it, you spend it, you get it, you spend it. But you don't realize where to put it. and like right so yeah like I know a guy

he makes his kids fucking start like retirement and shit and they're like younger than I am right I mean

it's smart if you can afford it you absolutely should put it aside put it away you still there yeah sorry

you're paused okay it didn't cut anything off did it no oh god oh good but oh Jesus how scared

yeah like I don't know you really think about it though like $30 $40 put it all into a savings count and especially like

they're savings accounts that you put so much money in and then they constantly build interest yeah they lock them like right you get being super hard if you try to take money out yeah well there's like something you can't you can't even touch the money till the account matured right it it probably depends on you know what the agreement was but yeah so i mean i don't know I really don't know. And that's the scary truth is we live in uncertain times, but I'm still alive. I got a fucking heartbeat.

Exactly. I won't ever be homeless. Right. I'm not fucking leaving. All right. Let's start talking about funny shit again. One last thing. Okay.

Go ahead. Go ahead. There's one thing. I'm about about, I'm about, I'm about, about, I'm about, I'm about, the cry in this world that drives me nuts and we've probably all known somebody we don't have to say names and we're not going to go that deep no people that inherit a metric fuckload of money and spend it like it's never going to run out oh god we're getting political here we go folks no it's not political i'm just saying like there's people out there that they're one of their

family members pass his way and they inherit a shit ton of money and then they just spin spin spin like it's never going to run out like fuck dude put that in stocks or something and quadruple your fucking money they have accountants for a reason i always say like whenever you see those questions like what would you do if you had a billion dollars i'm like i i don't want that like i like i always say i don't know what kind of asshole i would turn into if I was rich Yeah But on the same

I think if I was rich I wouldn't know how to be rich Which would be a good thing I would I would probably not spend very much of it And someone would be like Dude Like you could

afford to go do something And I'd be like I can they'd be like oh yeah or you know what I mean a billion dollars you're set for life or maybe not a billion let's say a million

let's say let's say a couple million a million you're not going to be able to retire right now off of it people would have to tell me what I could afford because I probably wouldn't really get it

yeah you know what I mean they'd be like you could live in like a nice house I could they'd be like, oh, yeah, this is easily within your price range. I'd probably be like, oh, shit. Yeah. Like, you know what I mean?

Oh, yeah. Easy. So, but. So, I don't know. Exactly. I mean, everybody goes, oh, fuck. You know what I would have if I had this much money? It's like, yeah, but you spend all of it at once.

You get $7 million. You could probably retire right now and live the rest of your life comfortable. buying whatever you want really because I wouldn't I wouldn't blow it exactly but there's some people in the world you would get seven million dollars right now and I bet you within

10 years 20 years yeah they're done maybe not a week because what would happen is I'd probably still live in Nebraska I would just live in a nice house I'd probably I wouldn't buy a Bugatti but I'd

probably have a nice truck I would still have to work If I won $7 million right now I would still have to work You know how bored I would be Oh yeah I would definitely mow fairways Or like pick up some bullshit job like

I almost said bullshit job Like a Walmart greeter Like streaming Like I'm saying like Or do a job that you can do at your house Whenever the fuck you want Right I would still need to think that I needed to work

for a reward yeah because I think that's the primary drive for me and also I would argue like middle class people is the time you have off is

rewarding it's a rewarding feeling when you've worked your eight hour day you look forward to going home but if you're home all day you get bored pretty quick exactly and you'd get fucking depressed

so even though you're at your job and you're wanting to be home that that's necessary my honeymoon I was gone for like a week like a full week like seven days for some shit well it was more like 10 days because I had her wedding and all that stuff

but towards the end of it I'm like I'm ready to go back to work like living this like i i i want to say like fictionary life is awesome but it's not reality yeah exactly i'm going to have to go back to work when i'm done so right anyhow back to funny shit and i yeah let's get into some funny shit so um How is your tailgated? It was good. It was kind of cold.

I've seen you smash a buzz ball and go. Ben and I had a couple buzz balls. I had a few beers. Booky Ben got us. Shout up, Bucky Ben. Got us some pizza for the tailgate. And we watched the Huskers fucking sucking egg. Literally.

playing our ugly step-cousin from across the border came into town and they but if you're an iowa fan stay subscribed but fuck you right if you're an if you're an iowa fan you know you've proved once again that you're kind of our big brother they're just going to keep whooping us until we fucking grow a set i am so tired of everybody telling me i everybody goes talking to your mike i'm so tired of everybody telling me everybody telling me everybody he goes well you don't have to put it inside your mouth but just you're holding it down at your dick you you watch you watch the football game this weekend i go yeah i watch the fucking football game as much as i could stomach to watch and they're like yeah i mean we're a good team i'm

like no we'll never beat a big 10 team they go well we beat michigan state i'm saying a fucking powerhouse big team big 10 team will never beat him again anyone that says we're a good team it's like but are we it's like we're not there we're just not there yeah you know what I say we have talent but a good team doesn't have to revolve around talent all the time

some consistency is fucking nice no one likes to bite into a dry ass knickers no they're looking for fucking creamy and nutty and chocolatey okay would you call me so this think about it this way Let's just pretend that Nebraska was playing this weekend against Alabama or Georgia.

What do you think that game would look like? I, honest to God, think Alabama could have their, they could be one in seven and play us, and they're going to stomp a fucking mud hole in our ass. It would look like a high school team playing an NFL team. Yet we're also D1, we're in college, but we're just not at that level. I didn't get to watch the full game. Was it true that we only had 10 yards in the third quarter? I believe I did see that.

But I didn't know. But I didn't know. If that was true. I think it's pretty close. I think it's pretty true. I think we were in the fourth quarter Like the fourth quarter had just started And they flashed a stat on the screen

That said like Nebraska's yards so far And it said like 10 And I'm like 10? 10? What? We had one three and out? The worst thing is

Is we have one of the best running backs In the nation right now That's the other thing Is he one of the best running backs in the nation? or is he our only good player? Well, no, they were reading his stats the other day. And I swore they were saying that... But is it because that's our only good player

and he's forced to have those stats? Well, I don't know. Anyways, I love Nebraska. I will always be a diehard Nebraska fan. But it gets hard to watch sometimes. The worst thing is? And I think about, you know, you watch Nebraska, of playing against, I don't know, one of the guys, one of the teams we beat at the beginning

of the season. And then you click over an SEC game, Texas A&M versus Alabama or something like that. It looks like a completely different level of ball. Even though it's still D1 college football. Yeah. It doesn't even look the same. All their players are moving in fast pace. It seems like they're in a different league.

It's fucking 60 to 50, not 17 to 13. and we're like glad i took the over we fucking destroy that i yeah no i anyway i really don't understand but the other thing is is every year we're so always over fucking hyped oh we're going to be the greatest team in the fucking college football this year slow your horses we're We're Nebraska. We're about like our weather. Bipolar as fuck. It's, it's the, my main thing is when people are like, I want to make the playoffs. I'm like, I don't think you want us to make the playoffs because if somehow we were able to get into the playoffs, it would be embarrassing what would happen or how quickly we'd get bounced the fuck out of there. Yeah.

We're just not ready. We're not there. no the worst thing is is I go from like watching the football team get their shit stomped in and then I don't even want to watch fucking volleyball because it's boring as all fuck oh no the Husker volleyball is going to fucking

destroy this team again yeah that's so fun it's like our volleyball team is too good it's like going to watch it fucking you and K playing a fucking 12 year old football league right i don't want to watch that well and because it's college football right there's no drafting it's college students who are choosing which school they want to go to yeah so it feels like an uphill battle matt rule is a great coach and i'm sure he has a great coaching staff around him

But he can only work with what he's got. Exactly. You can only tell a guy to run fast. But if he's not fast, that's it. You can put him in all the workouts you want, but the guys have to have it. I really had high hopes for Lateef. Because he would come out and play fucking really great. but then again we also haven't seen them up against a good team

and we also haven't seen him play an entire game so well we have the last two games and we've seen how those panned out I just don't think we're there I honestly thought that the pack 12 would just fucking floor us all the teams that are coming in

we are so fucked next year Oregon do we play organ next year I'm pretty sure but well all those teams are fully in the Big Ten next year oh right

so all of those pack 12 teams that are phenomenal I don't think we're going to do so hot but we'll see it's concerning for sure thank you but

all right what else oh so you got a PS5 oh before we go into that on my way home from work stopped at the good old Casey's to get these Miller lights

and our main girl was behind the counter and hooked a brother up she goes do you drink Bain Energy drinks bang energy drinks i'm like you're talking to the energy drink fiend honey i didn't say that but she was like today it's like it's like 25 days of cases or whatever they're like doing

shit on their rewards oh yeah and today i could get a free bang and i was like oh shit well i'm not walking out of here without a free bang she's like you just got to go in the app and save it and i was like well do i need to buy something with it to get it and she was like go she was like go get two and i'll let you have mine also i was like and she was like eating a cookie while she was back there um you said pregnancy cravings them cravings them cravings sometimes bitch him but and so so i went back there

I got two bags. And she rung up her cookie and that gave me a free bang. And she was like, I'll love you have mine. And then she rang up a cup of ice for one penny and gave me my bang. So I got two free bangs and I was reaching my pocket. She looked at me like I was fucking stupid. And I was like, you need a penny? And she's like, no, you're good.

So I walked out of there with two free bangs. She's like, are you fucking stupid? yeah and then i like looked at all the other people that were in line um but i was actually the second time we were at casey's today go ahead what are you about to say you got something cooked up you're like yeah you gave me two bangs how about we make it a third you're like maybe i shouldn't say this ah fucking i'll go for it here we go let's take her in the back so Did her behind the monkey grass.

Boinked her on a pall of carburetors. Boinged her behind the monkey grass. Did him on a pile of torque converters. Full circle. So today, you know, we're fully into winter now. How much snow did you guys get? Like a couple inches. Not a lot.

I mean, so much. Compared to us, that's getting fucking absolutely pissed on. We got like half inch. oh we don't we we probably got like three inches but uh so you know we're looking for as many minards runs as we can get right oh yeah and uh i took a little early on his first minards run today oh of course we had to take a spin we had to take a spin by the old case he's to complete it and i had to give him the true full experience so I threw a tenor in the slot machine and pulled out 26, so made a little $16 profit on that.

And that's the end of my story. Did I tell you about the time where Bailey, so about our pool hall extravaganza up here, we have a pool hall that has pool tables. Oh, was that what they got in there? Yeah, yeah, yeah. So, well, and they also have skill machines. So we went up there for a guy that I work with's birthday. And it's like, I'm going to go gamble.

I'm like, okay, you go right ahead. You go gamble. You're like, I do. I married you for a reason. I lost my game of pool. So I'm like, eh, fuck. I'm just sitting there watching. I'm like, eh, I'm going to go gamble.

So I go, hey, babe, give me five bucks. Spend, spend, spend. Lose all five bucks. I'm like, oh, fuck. I was doing dollar bets that time. By the way, I'm opening these bottles with the ace of spades bottle opener that you gave us even even other twist off these little light bottles yeah they're twist offs mine aren't maybe i wasn't trying hard enough i think you should open

maybe i put my pussy lips on it i'm just kidding um so i went over there i'm like babe spot me five i i promise i'll give you more money to gamble back with she's like all right here's five bucks dollar spins bang bang bang lose it all i'm like all right give me five more dollar spins so you just did five spins yeah and i was like all right give me five more fuck it and i'm like i'm like fuck to make money i looked over there still playing pool so i went down to 25 cents boy can i tell you the buffalo we're fucking running that day buddy buffalo tundra yeah so i was it uh buffalo like a real one no it was buffalo tundra so like the gas station Yeah, yeah, yeah, so I spin, spin, I'm like, oh, fuck, I'm getting down here.

I spin, hit for like, well, it was probably more than that, because I was down to like $2 left, and I win $8. So I'm like, all right, here we go, spin, spin, spin, you know the bonus, and then I hit the bonus wheel where the ice blocks come down and the bison run by and break the ice. Right. Oh, yeah. I got all the way to the top. And how much was it? $87. Hey. But I'm like, God damn it, I should have put like

fucking dollar spins. If it was a dollar. If they were dollar spins, that was the jackpot. Okay, but you, but here's the thing. The game knows it's a 25 cent bet. Yeah, yeah. So if you were doing dollar spins, you probably wouldn't have got the bonus. sometimes you got to bite the bullet and do a 25 cent spin to get a small to get the bonus and get a small amount

instead of being greedy and doing dollar spins and getting nothing i gotta i got to move my deal because i'm about ready to show you some and you're going to fucking lose it so what yeah i'm going mobile okay wait what is this oh that's like that's the guy in the that's the guy in the in the bar right yeah we're going mobile we're going mobile all right so the other day i was like i need an energy drink so i walk into the gas station and they got this little right by the liquor section they got this like little wall of liquor bottles oh there and they got their skill games on the other side and i walk in and i you think you're a season vet no this guy's a fucking season vet

this guy is talking about yourself this guy is standing like this on one of the schools and someone else he's got two machines queued up he's going oh my god play on both he's a kimboing machine

yeah I'm like uh yeah this guy knows what the fuck's up he's going to kimbo I walked in I'm like I really want to just pull up my phone Like Jake look at this motherfucker He's playing two skill machines at the same time Hey

You gotta respect the hustle But What else you've been up to? This guy is speed running gambling debt He's like I could get there quicker if I did it on two machines It's kind of like the people That instead of just carrying their card in their hand

They got it on the little land they can like and then just like zips back right right refresh your computer so it doesn't die

I've been watching you can do that instead of just putting it so you don't have to refresh it you just have to touch it every 15 seconds and I'm watching you do it

but I don't care I tried it I've tried it experience oh yeah you said you couldn't do it for whatever reason yeah I don't know

how was your guys's football game outside that had to be pretty decent decently cold when you and ben did you guys just game all day what at the tailgate no the the game before that you sent me a picture you had the xbox 360 cued up with modern warfare two and two controllers did you guys have like a game day or what so what is that hold on lina is Lena is trying to lighten my mood by bringing me my red truck

light up thing so maybe we'll end the podcast on that don't let me forget remind me red truck and I'll tie this whole and I'll bring this whole thing home with a heartfelt sentimental warm fuzzy feeling segment so we started off to kind of gloomy

Get those barking ass dogs off your fucking table. I'm just kidding. Get them up higher. Hang on. Lena, give me some lotion. So we were, initially, our plan was to record a pod where we ranked the World at War gun sounds. Okay. this thing sounds like it's getting bound up it doesn't sound right it kind of sounds like a broken clutch

uh fucking uh turk converter what you say i said i meant to say torque converter but i said turk convertor turk converter turkentvorder um anyways we were going to record and do You got to keep that baby refreshed. You've got to build one of those like Lego machines or like for Clash or Clans where it keeps tapping. Hey. It was like AFK like Clash and Clan things. These fingers go crazy. Yeah, I know.

But so we were kind of, Jesus Christ, let me get there. So we were going to record a pod where we did a tier list ranking the sounds of the world at war guns. Jesus. We finally got there. But, you know, I'm the type of guy that's like, all right, let me get my notes list ready. I'm going to go through the guns and jot down my notes. And then you got Ben and Nolan over here. They're just like, yeah, this is cool.

And they're not as into it. And so I was just like, let's just record a normal pod. Like, we're not going to sit here and actually go through and truly analyze this and give it his dude justice. Because Ben's like, I'm not taking notes. And Nolan's like, all just, no one will kind of remember. but he's not going to be as diligent as me so we just decided to record

but it was fun that was two episodes ago because Wednesday the day before Thanksgiving we went to the Stars game right you FaceTime me when we were there and right after the game we recorded a pod

right after the game we recorded a pod off because he had to be up early to go to Thanksgiving in like Missouri I think so Connor came down from Columbus we dropped Spencer off at home brought Connor back because he drove him and Spencer over to my house so his car was at my house Ben Connor and I recorded a pod and dude that was one of the best pods we recorded in a while we went for an hour and a half talked about some pretty funny cool stuff some different stuff a little bit yeah yeah and I thoroughly enjoyed myself and I stopped the recording

went to listen back to like something we were talking about I was like let me listen and I'm like wait a minute the audio sounded horrendous and I went what and I looked down at my laptop and i didn't plug the fucking soundboard into my laptop so the mics were not plugged in i was a little larried up because it was a post stars game pod i mean i'm fucking not hammered i'm not like you had you had a couple howdies i was i was larried i was a little larried yeah so the mics did not get plugged in so but i i really wanted to still upload it so i just the phone audio went up um and there's not a whole lot you can do to it the iPhone you can kind of put some filtering on it yeah but one when i did that

and put it into i movie it didn't sound good and i movie has some filters you can put on it so i did my best to like kind of take out some of the background noise so it didn't sound super echoey but it still didn't sound great but i was like you know what fuck it so i posted it anyways i did a little um like preliminary like i recorded myself saying like hey guys just a heads up um which if you're a loyal listener and you listen to it now you're listening to this you already know this but i'm informing cam since uh even though he's the co-host of the grass day even though he's a co-host of the grass daddy's podcast i have to keep him in the loop about what the grass that he's podcast is doing so i gave a like a hey the audio is not good but i still wanted to post it

so here you go so that's what we did one of my friends here and i'll name his name he shan he wants to get on the podcast so bad yeah yeah so loyal listener so i right right yes yes yes i make it i force him at gunpoint to listen to the podcast no i'm just kidding i don't uh right besides he says that you're funnier than me and then i want to punch him in the fucking face but that's okay um anyways i was like i came up with the idea did i ever tell you i love sean all right go ahead i came up Sean did he comes my idea but um like you see a lot of other podcasts where like the host and the co-hosts sit on the same side and then they question the other guy sure we should do that next time you're back like the fucking that's like

you're talking about like the logan paul podcast and uh there's a whole shit ton of them well i'm sure there's a lot but the well kind of like unfriended i just saw a clip because i just saw was it the steve will do it clip yes exactly what the fuck happened I don't even know and I don't even have the full context so I can't speak

truthfully about everything that went down but we act like we act like they're going to hear this well yeah I know but I'm still just no I'm covering my ass yeah because I'm not gonna lie if I don't know the truth yeah exactly I just won't

the only thing I like heard was like them say something about NEL So there's two different things. It was something about Nelk and then also about Steve saying something about, was it Logan's life? I don't know because I can't remember. I might have sat on Snapchat, or maybe it was on YouTube, I don't know, but some of it was like bleeped. Yeah. And like Logan was getting mad, like, you're going to piss me off.

and basically if you want to go that route, I'm going to start saying shit that you probably don't want to hear. I don't know. But from my outside perspective, it sounded like, and I don't know. It's like a business move. Like they get more business and more traction

if there's drama that's stirred up. So they're trying to entice there to be some dramatic conversation. Kind of like if coffee is. a cappuccino or cappuccino's a coffee right but that was a real genuine argument that we just had between us it wasn't like uh let me see if i can get this person riled up let's see if we can get viewer which is what it seemed like yeah which is what it seemed like and it seemed like and steve is such a chill laid back guy and maybe he was high i don't know i don't know i really I know like honestly I really don't I'm not a huge fan of Logan Paul so I'm kind of on Steve will do so you might be biased no well I don't I don't love the guy either but I'm trying to look at it from a business perspective but it it seemed to me like Steve was in a chilled out mood whether that's from being high or just because he's a chill guy I don't know but it seemed like he wasn't they weren't getting as much of a rise out of him as they

maybe wanted so maybe they were trying to entice it yeah that seemed like it was potentially the case and it didn't seem like he was like he kind of seemed like i'm not going to give you whatever you want whatever you're trying to get i'm not going to give it to you so this is over yeah and it's and and and i think that's why he got up and walked away well and like honestly though like no skin off his back you know what I mean like I'm not gonna I mean give you walking away from walking away and preventing yourself from saying something that maybe you don't want to or shouldn't say yeah I mean that's fair so but I mean I don't know at the same time it's like He had to have an idea of what he was walking into, right?

Well, I mean, yeah, kind of. I don't know. Did you see the, have you seen the clips of where Keist Nat is, like, sitting there, like, pissed? He paid, I can't remember who it was. But he's not, like, pissed, but, like, internally, he's like, oh, fuck. He had some guy come on and do, like, a stream, like, technically a podcast. Like, on his own stream? you mean?

Yeah. But he paid the guy to come on his stream. I can't remember who it was. But like, oh, oh, it was Cam Scadaboo. Oh, shit. And he paid, like,

Cam Scadaboo to come on his stream, and Cam Scadaboo was just, like, on his phone the entire time. And, like, all the, like, the, what people posted, the captions was, like, like chat or captions like captions was like

or comments after the video was already done they're like you can literally see that he's like I just paid $100,000 for this I mean but what did he say like what if Cam didn't really want to do it and he was just like I'll pay you whatever just to you just got to be on it like just having your face on it will pay for itself

and maybe it didn't yeah you know I have no idea I have another idea, and you should post on the Instagram if they want to see it. Because since you and Lena may come down sometime, I want to do a cooking stream or a cooking video where me and you try to cook something extravagant. For the girls? Yeah. I'd be down. That'd be a fun one.

I watched, I got this idea from sketch and jinxie. Sure. But they were just higher than fuck. Oh. So, yeah. I think that'd be pretty funny. But we gotta have a couple howdies before it, where we're just a little larried up before we go to do the video.

A little Larry. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, refresh it. Yep, there you go. So I had an idea. that would I think would be fun where you and I sit down and do a reaction video

where we react to some of our old podcast episodes oh no because we're at the point now this is our 86th episode yeah 86 that seems crazy we should try cam just had an idea folks

we say this all the time and we do good for like two episodes and then but we should try to get back on to recording regularly so we can plan the time for you and Lena to come back

to make the 100th episode Oh you want to do that for our 100th episode Yeah Well that's going to be a while I guess Well we can always log it Yeah Like we can record it and save it and then record and then post it because that'd be kind of cool like for the

hundredth episode dude they're reacting to that'd be a good idea because the only other ideas i've had was the ideas i had for the hundredth is you and i record and then periodically throughout the episode people start filtering in slowly and everyone that's been on the pod starts filtering in yeah but I'm not sure in what capacity we could do that successfully but maybe that is what we do for the 100th episode

is sit down and watch our old podcast and react to them that would be a good idea yeah and then we could like also do like the cooking video we could log so much shit right but like we need to actually plan it

technically yep and we will technically I made a new year's resolution to get out grass daddy's merch so in order to fulfill that before December 31st or 30th I don't know we got to have like four coasts we got to have like four coosies out we got to have like at least a sticker made or something so we can technically fulfill the new year's resolution and get grass daddy's merch out and it has to be purchased by someone so imagine

imagine we fucking procrastinate it all the way down to the last day of December and we just sell a homeless guy at grass study sticker for like a penny and we're like we fulfilled the resolution we sold some grass daddy's merge that would be nice it could be done it will be done I won't rest until it's done oh yeah

so before my heart before my heartwarming sentiment you got a PlayStation 5 oh yeah how does it feel uh it's to be in the next gen it's it's pretty nice honestly

I've been taking quite a bit of time would have been nicer if you didn't have to make a big purchase right after making that big purchase Uh Yeah Yeah, but it was one of those things that like I would sit here and be like

Oh, I don't really need it Like the game I play, I really don't need it And then I was like God, I just want one so bad And then So it was kind of like if I don't do it in the moment I probably won't buy one for a long time Sure

So I was like, fuck it So I bought one, and I've been playing Ballarat with my brother quite a bit until about 11.30 every night. It's like CSGO, but a little, like, sci-fi CSGO. Right. I kind of know of it, but I haven't played it at all. So a little funny side story for you guys relating to the PlayStation 5 purchase by Cam. Cam, that had a lot to go. If you're going where I think you're going, me getting an action, console had quite a bit to do with it to do with what the the the grass daddy's gaming

segment oh oh okay our group well okay okay that that kind of is going where i'm going okay but anyways so cam face timed us and my phone was in my pocket so i just had a number on the screen right because we were at work weren't we yeah yeah yeah we were at work pushing snow so i answer my phone And through the work truck speakers, I just hear, what dang? And I'm like, oh, it's cam. Because for whatever reason, on the little work truck screen, it just had a number. It didn't have a name or anything. Oh, yeah.

So I'm like, oh, shit, I'm getting a call. What, dang. And I was like, oh, it's fucking cam. So I pulled you out of my pocket. And you go, I just got a PlayStation 5. And I was like, oh, shit, nice. And you go, when are we dropping into Battlefield 6? And I was like, oh, you bought Battlefield 6?

And you're like, not yet. And I'm like, what? Well, I'm broke as fuck. I was like, we'll be dropping it as soon as you fucking purchase it because that's kind of have to be a necessary step to do it. Have you been grinding it a little bit? A little bit, yeah. I'm like level, like 57.

Which doesn't really mean anything to you since you haven't been playing. You don't really know. Yeah. But I've been playing it a little bit. It reminds me a lot of Battlefield 4 and I loved Battlefield 4. you were on to you were into are you talking about 2020

no no no 4 is the one after three well like I'm just saying I know that I'm saying like the look at wasn't Battlefield 4 hardlined no

Battlefield 4 was before hard line and then it went Battlefield 1 Then it went Battlefield 5, which was World War II. Then it went 20, whatever, 42. And you like that one. It's basically it's modern warfare.

It's just like Battlefield 4 was just like modern warfare. Yeah. Kind of like standard today's guns type of deal. Not going to lie, I never really got into Battlefield because every single, time i got a new console that i could play battlefield by the time i got the new console it was like dead well it won't be now because you got it right in time it's a it's huge there's so many memes about it right now like a lot of people are playing it and it's a lot of fun so yeah that that'll probably be my next purchase and knowing you you'll like it you'll like it i like i like i like i like memes

yeah you'll have to you'll get into our you'll have to get in our discord and i figured out a way to connect the sound like i can get on the discord on my computer and talk through this mic and i was like doing the sound effects yeah so you can have and so you can do it too i can just have to use bailey's computer you can add reverb to your voice in the group chat you're like hey guys i'm inside this tank someone come and hopping this thing with me which i haven't been able to hear the other side of it because i've just been doing it to the guys yeah but if they're laughing then you know it's good so and it's got the uh and it's got battle royale quads and duos so we can play that

it'll be a grand old time trust me but and any who's escape from the harsh realities of this world and speaking of which let me tie this all back together So a little moment ago, Lina brought me down a Christmas decoration that is kind of a snow globe. It's basically like a little box and it's got a red truck on it and it just has water in it and it lights up and it like swirls around the little like snowflakes, like a snowglop. so the story behind this is i can hear your beer bottle a few sorry i'm going like this i'm fidgeting a few christmases ago um or maybe uh maybe like three or four winters ago i was kind of feeling down in the dumps and it was when i was living not at this house but the one

before so it might have been like four or five years ago anyways i was over was it six or seven no it was not anyways i was kind of feeling depressed probably some seasonal depression i was sad i was over at my parents house and i was kind of venting to my mom about um like i don't know if I was venting about necessarily like, you know, I don't know, being a young adult living in a different house and I can't remember what exactly was stressing me out at the time besides maybe just having kind of some seasonal depression. But I was iterating to her how I come over to their house and I'm sitting in the living room. I was like, and it feels so cozy. Like it feels like a home yeah and i gestured to her snow globe on the tvs fan which is the same one that lena brought down

for me and i was like like you got stuff like this and it feels so cozy and my house feels like a fucking dungeon like i go kind of kind of you know what i mean and i feel on i feel uncompy over yeah well for christmas that year she got me to that same snow globe so um cam stop crying you're going to make me cry i'm just kidding so i ain't crying you're crying the lesson i want you all to take from this because we started this episode talking about the harsh realities of this world living as a young adult having to go paycheck to paycheck and having big bills and sometimes feeling like there's not a light at the end of the tunnel because at the end of the day cam what is the true meaning behind this podcast comedy

relief providing an escape for those of you that need a laugh or something not very serious to think about so do you think part of us wanted to make a podcast because we wanted that Wanted it in this game? Yeah. Maybe. No, I think the true meaning was because we'd get at work and dick around and think, We're so funny. We're the funniest two people to ever have a conversation.

So we should put it on the internet because everyone else needs to see how funny we are. And we have like... I think that was the real reason we started it. Minimum. So, with this red truck sitting next to me, that's no longer moving snowflakes around. because I think the motors burned out on it. I want you all to take a moment,

think about something that's making you upset, and just know that it's only a temporary thing. There is a light at the end of the tunnel. It might be a long tunnel. It might be a while until that light shows up. But it's there. You just got to get there. If not, buy a fucking flashlight.

Buy a fucking flashlight and tape a water bottle to it with some with some styrofoam broken up in it. Yeah. Swirl it around. Shake it. Shake the piss out of it. Find something that makes you feel comfy and feel at home. Just embrace the feeling that there is hope. Oh yeah

Christmas time is here It's not time for Christmas music yet I gotta pee So fucking bad Cam Welcome back I like how you go on these like two Three week hiatuses

Where we just can't find a time to record Because we have real adult lives And We do our best to get you something out We're still working on We're not actually working on it But we still are striving to someday get it so when we do these podcasts we can have a visual element to it but for the time being it's

going to be audio only but uh there you go i think that's going to do it cam do you have anything else to say to the folks oh one more funny thing i got one more funny thing for you so for movie club we've been watching the uh knives out movies i don't know if you've seen those or of those never heard of the first one is called knives out the second one
