I was wondering if you were going to do that. You're the Elite Employees. What is that even from? Who is that?
Starting point is 00:00:51 It's just a meme. I don't know. I don't know who that is. I know it's a meme, but who is the lady? I don't know. Look it up. Not anymore. Not that we started recording. There you go.
Starting point is 00:01:01 Put your bucket on backwards. Before we get into it, I'm thirsty. Just crack open the mini fridge. Wait, wait. Who is it? Someone's home. Someone's home. What do we got?

It's a very special day because it's Friday. We don't normally record on Fridays, we usually record on Thursdays or like a day after the podcast was supposed to be uploaded, but today's Friday and you know what? I think the magic... I almost slipped up.
Starting point is 00:02:45 I think the magic mini fridge thought it'd be a good idea to celebrate with a little champagne. See? I'm telling you, man. It's the mini fridge. The champagne of beers. Says it right on the label for all of our listeners we got to get a p.o box so they can send us funny stickers put on the black money bridge that'd be that'd be pretty cool if we could even get a single person to leave a comment on our
Starting point is 00:03:18 video one guy did hey what was that guy's what was that guy's name someone did leave a comment and i don't i don't know if it was a negative comment or a positive comment i don't know if you listened to this episode comment on this episode i think it was good but i don't know i think it was positive feedback but i don't know um i love how it was probably just you i love how... It was probably just you. I love how, like... No. I love how, like, higher-up podcasts and channels will be like, Yeah, we got a $100 donation that we're going to give to charity because we make so much money. And we're like, guys, you won't believe it.
Starting point is 00:04:02 We actually got a comment on one of our videos. You have been promoted. You have been promoted. Someone commented. Shouts out to Jackson Wrigley 351 who commented, fellas was yapping this time hundred hundred emoji so i think normally means good like yeah people use that like god we sound like boomers but like
Starting point is 00:04:36 normally you would think when someone says you're yapping that's a bad thing like yeah yapping but i don't know if that's lingo. You know, like, yapping is like... Maybe it means like cooking. I hope it means like cooking. But then, yeah, the 100-100, keep it 100 emoji. And I just replied, on God. So, but that episode is at 172 views.
Starting point is 00:05:06 172 views with an average watch time of like 2 minutes and 20 seconds. But that might mean with 172 views, though, that might mean 10 people watched it all the way through and 100 people watched it for 5 seconds. It's an average. Maybe some people just it for 5 seconds. It's an average. Maybe some people just really like her intro. You know that's a song. The intro song or... The intro song. They're just like,
Starting point is 00:05:34 man, I just really like this song. Or the cold open. The cold open where I put a clip from like a part of the video. We've been trying to get feedback. I think it would be so cool to have like average listener like 170. That'd be so cool.
Starting point is 00:05:58 Average listeners? Yeah, like our average number of people that view it or listen to it would be... I mean, it all depends on what the algorithm decides to... Yeah, how is our... To promote to people. How is it on...
Starting point is 00:06:16 How are we doing on, like, the podcast app and that stuff? Let's take a look. This is the, this is what we've divulged into. Let's just look alive on the podcast producing comment. This is like double dipping content. We're producing content of looking at what content feedback we're getting. Um,
Starting point is 00:06:43 we did do this in one episode episode 250 or is that overall 250 total total looks like we're getting about which i think means listens which i don't know if that means someone has to listen for 30 seconds for it to count as a listen or you know i don't i don't call it a view because it's yeah audio but looks like five seven six four four five twelve colder than a witch's tit in a brass bra episode 25 has 12 man that title must have really caught them in there all right maybe they thought they were gonna hear tits i've done decided that i'm gonna start popping off since i have literally had the episodes on my phone i'm gonna go off i'm gonna go through before i delete them and i'm gonna start like going through or like cutting out small things thank you making reels and shit thank you oh that'd be great i
Starting point is 00:07:47 know you like making tiktoks did you know you can get tiktok on your laptop and make videos on your laptop instead of on your phone so you don't have to sit there with your big fingers and like you call my fingers big yeah dude you're not fucking sam squange james um no i didn't know that but for the videos for the tiktoks that i've made that i wanted to do in more depth editing i just like edited them in imovie and then put it on my phone and then uploaded it but that's probably a lot easier doing it on tiktok on your video it it takes every ounce of me not to not to want to make you try to laugh try to make you laugh when you're when you're guzzling something especially when you're holding a 40 like it's
Starting point is 00:08:31 a giant baby bottle and you're sucking on it because a couple episodes ago you fucking geysered everywhere and so i just don't want to have that happen again there's a grimace shake there's spilled um i think martin knocked over a fucking vodka red bull on that one episode i did with ben um oh fuck i was gonna ah this is kind of good right now though it is it's pretty tasty it's kind of like a four loco though the very first taste of miller high life is just god awful i hate what do you mean it's just beer yeah but like the aftertaste but it's good now i feel like this is just jesus christ i would say it's good you're almost half i mean i know i know pretty much all beer looks like this but like i feel like this is just like the stereotypical color of beer
Starting point is 00:09:26 like you get enough of these in your fridge when you pop it open and the light kind of has that yellowy amberish glow coming out oh man this is like did you ever have a cream soda and then peel off the wrapper and pretend like you're drinking a beer because it's like the same color? No. Oh, I was just the only weird kid that did that? I always just got a root beer. Leave a comment if you ever did that. When I was a little kid, I'd always get a root beer and say I was drinking beer with my dad. Close enough.
Starting point is 00:10:00 I've done an Edward Forty Hands before. I want to do one so bad. It's not as fun as you would think it is. I did it with Bush Lights. I'm pretty sure they were 40. 40 ounces. Because they have ones that are like 32, I think.
Starting point is 00:10:18 But they were like 40 ounce bottles. And I duct taped them to my hands like the challenge. The first one was not bad but the second one it wasn't it wasn't I was concerned that I was gonna get too drunk and that I needed to pace myself like I was concerned I was concerned with it was going to be too much. So I was going slow. But the slower I went, the beer got really warm in my hand. Oh, yeah, I tried puke. And it was gross. Yeah, if I ever do it, if I ever do it. The key is to go fast.
Starting point is 00:10:55 I might get fucked up, but I'm pounding them. Yeah, because Cole ended up doing it with, I think, Coronas. He might have done 32-ounce Coronas. Oh, my God. I'd fucking 100%. i don't know i don't know if he might have done bush lights i can't remember but he basically did the same thing and he like went through them pretty quick and i was like i think that was the move i think that's where i fucked up i should have i should have really went for it because then i'm out of a cannon. I'm not joking.
Starting point is 00:11:25 By the time I got halfway down that second bottle, it was disgusting. It wasn't a matter of me being too drunk. It was gross to drink. It was warm. Warm bush light. Anyways, shot out of a cannon. Top five beers, not in an order. Top five beers, not in an order.
Starting point is 00:11:43 Because I can't put a one and two and three and four on there. But top five beers. order top five beers because i can't put them like i can't put like a one and two and three and four on there but top five beers my top five i was thinking about this today at work i was thinking about what we can talk about and what might get people to listen and since we're we really enjoy drinking beer on our podcast before we do that there was something i wanted to mention and you and you reminded me when you talked about it's about it is high time that i make a grass daddy's tiktok an actual tiktok i wonder if the sun coming through is is it making my face brighter is it making it look weird no one wants to see my face. How does it look?
Starting point is 00:12:26 Does it look good? I look good? I look good? But the ring light thing, I feel like they're supposed to be up in your face. That's what Maggie said. She was on here, right? I don't know. So are we going to sit with ring lights on our faces right here?
Starting point is 00:12:50 Well, I think we just need to get a light or something. Yeah, probably. When it's dark outside, our faces get dark. But if we have a light behind there, then it's going to cast shadows on the wall. I don't know. We can play around with something. Like my lamp upstairs. If we can take the like shade off of it and just have the light bulb maybe we'll see anyways i think it is high time
Starting point is 00:13:12 that i make a grass studies tiktok where i post shorts and videos and just funny clips of us and probably the boys too um just we're doing yeah just uh because i think don't quote me on this we've kind of had a couple ideas about some potential vlogs we can maybe do i don't know i don't know if i'd want to make another channel maybe we just posted on the graph studies podcast channel it's just a special like bonus video yeah um yeah we could have a playlist for vlogs but um don't worry guys we we got some ideas we're not we're not going anywhere um i've also been thinking about like like you said, other shit to get more interaction. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:08 I've started to pull a couple shorts from some videos. As in, I just went on YouTube on my phone and screen recorded a little segment. And at some point, I'll edit it and post it that's sometimes as a short on the on the channel and then yeah you could do that like on instagram um because we're really not i mean we're we're being kind of lazy we're just kind of throwing an episode out there we're not really doing our due diligence for like trying to engage other people to come listen i mean the people that listen are like our friends and family or people that stumble upon it yeah but or whatever his name was devin 351 or whatever
Starting point is 00:14:52 the fuck his name was it was i thought it was jackson jackson wrigley sure i don't know why i said i don't know why i said devin but Okay. Anyways, shout out to Buchanan. Top five beers, go. Budweiser. Bushlight. Those are my top two for sure. White Claw. No, just kidding. That's not a beer.
Starting point is 00:15:23 I do like seltzers though. You can throw them up there i'll call i'll put a seltzer seltzer as in like white claw high noon truly man truly is kind of more well high noon you can't because that's like a vodka seltzer well whatever um i guess it's so seltzer so you could i don't know does that make me sound like a pussy that I like seltzers? I've already said it. I've already said it. We drink them on the podcast. Bud Heavy, Bush Light, some sort of seltzer. So you're putting them in order.
Starting point is 00:15:59 I do like Natty Light. But is it a top five? I've always been a natty light drinker i've got a lot of natty light yeah natty light is in my top five natty light's definitely in my top five and then it's probably and then it's probably got to be coors um i do like miller high life um i've probably drank more Miller High Life than I've drank Miller Light. Um, but I'd probably have to go with Coors. I'm, I'm basically basing my top five off of what I've drank the most of because um i'm pretty new to the pbr game i've had my share of keystones
Starting point is 00:16:51 i'm not really i'm definitely not a craft beer guy i stick with my domestics i don't prefer bud lie i don't hate it i definitely don't hate it because of any stigma associated with it just going based off the taste of it yeah i i i would pick those all those other ones before it but i don't hate it well all the people that were like the stigma of it that i'm not gonna drink it because of the entire thing of the drama that was going on they're an idiot because it's anaheiser bush and which is budweiser and bush everything yeah which anaheiser bush is a monopoly it's it's so funny that they're like we're gonna boycott bud light it's like if you were to boycott bud light you'd be boycotting the company that makes all the other beer you would have to drink as an alternative. Yeah. Anyways.
Starting point is 00:17:49 Your turn. Old Milwaukee. No. Fireball. No, but I can't put mine in an order. I didn't put mine in an order. You were just saying them. Okay. Budweiser i thought that was the stip the the yeah yeah yeah the rules but i thought i didn't know if you were
Starting point is 00:18:10 because you're like counting on your fingers so i didn't know i was just going like this so i can remember um budweiser is up there um banquets i love me some banquets, some stubbies. Banquets taste so much better in a stubby. In a glass stubby? Mm-hmm. What is this with you guys going, it tastes better in a bottle out of a can? Is there any beer that tastes better out of a can than a bottle? I don't know, dude. Bottles?
Starting point is 00:18:41 Okay. I feel like Guinness would be better out of a can than a bottle. Possibly. Because the cans have the little ball. Yeah. Where the bottles don't. But you don't even like those at all, so. Guinness?
Starting point is 00:18:56 Yeah. Don't even go there. I'm actually starting to like Guinness. I don't know if we talked about this on the pod did we yeah yeah yeah how i was having an irish car bomb like two irish car bombs tonight you called it your melatonin and then you're like well i have to have two because you have tall boys in there because the tall boy half pint is yeah like the shot because it makes two and i'm not just gonna have one and then drink the rest of the guinness i'm not gonna just waste good guinness on not a car bomb but i have been i had a few guinnesses left over from my irish car bomb tour
Starting point is 00:19:31 so i was i i have been drinking guinness i i'm it's i feel like it's kind of like the thing with like your non-domestic beers like i've started to kind of like dabble into those a little bit like not like a huge i don't know but like if i think it sounds good i'll try it like i'll try anything well but what how how how how would it sound good you know unless you read the label which that's what i have been doing like they're like labeled like oh this one has a shot of vanilla okay okay i was gonna say because if you were just like voodoo ranger sounds good it's like uh what is that described um but anyways but even then if you're just like it's got a it's got a nutty taste with uh nodes of fruit no i'm not
Starting point is 00:20:27 like that if i see that i'm just like i don't know what that's telling me my top even if i taste it i'm like that tastes like a weird beer that are like out of a brewer is from kinkader i like most of like the sunbeast and snow and Snowbeasts. Well, I do like those. Those are pretty good. But, anyways, not my top five. Okay. Budweiser, Banquets, Corona. Oh.
Starting point is 00:21:01 See, but I meant, like, for some reason, I really like Corona, Dos Equis, and Tecate. Have you had Modelo? Yeah. I like them. I didn't love Modelo. Modelo's alright. You can drink a few of them. But the ones I had that had the foil.
Starting point is 00:21:20 And I think I was tasting the metal a little bit when I was drinking it. Or maybe I was imagining it. I don't know. But Corona's up there. Then I'm going to go with a solid Bush Light. Can't go wrong. How many is that? See, this is why you got to count.
Starting point is 00:21:40 Budweiser, Banquet, Corona, and Bush Light. What else do I want to throw up there in my top five? Natty Light probably has got to be up there. You haven't drank that much Natty Light, though. I didn't think. No. But, like, I love Natter Days. Natter Days are just... And I like Natty Light.
Starting point is 00:22:02 Some of it is based off price, too. Well, I mean mean that's fair because i mean i and that's probably why i've always like domestic i've always opted for what's cheaper well then like like the craft beers for instance is like ten dollars for a four pack. Yeah. Versus Natural Light is $15 for a 30 pack. Yeah. I mean. Well, Natty Light has gone up, dude. Like I always tell people
Starting point is 00:22:33 when I'm going on a binge. I'm like, I'm going for quantity over quality here. Yeah. I'm just going for numbers. I'm going for cans. I like counting my cans. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:22:44 Well. I don't know if that's me being ocd that i like to count my cans as i drink throughout the night or if it's like i think it helps me know because if you if you drink enough and you always count your cans then you start to gauge an idea for when you've probably had enough or you're getting to where you're having too much or yeah if i like i could probably have like if you're just like well i know i can have eight and not really be that hung over for work but if i start going over a 12 pack i'm definitely going to be hung over if i get closer to 15 i'm going to be really hung over if i get closer to 15 i'm gonna be really hung over like i think my record i think my record was a couple years ago on the 4th of july i think i had like 17
Starting point is 00:23:32 i think that's like my record and it was just like 12 ounce cans of beer yeah but like but towards the end i was shotgunning them like towards the end when I'm already really drunk. So, I don't know. Well, I guess on my birthday, that one, for my 25th birthday, I had 18. But that was throughout the whole day. Yeah. So. Because you were trying to have 25 beers. I was trying to have 25 beers.
Starting point is 00:23:58 But I think having them throughout the day screwed me. See. Because I got, like, a buzz. I woke up in the morning because I worked that morning and I shotgunned a beer before I went to work like 5 30 in the morning because I was I mean my birthday is in August late August so that's when we're like working weekends and so I was like I'll drink them throughout the day yeah like I got home from work drank like another four took a nap but by then I was like I basically the whole day was, like, I was buzzed slash hungover was the feeling I had.
Starting point is 00:24:31 Like, you know when you're hungover, you're, like, kind of buzzed. You got to keep the pace, though. Like, if you're drinking at this pace, you got to keep it. You might as well just try to be drunk all day. Yeah. See, I was just trying to be, like, buzzed all day. Yeah. And it was making me feel
Starting point is 00:24:45 like i just had a bad hangover the whole time yeah because you know when you have a bad hangover it's like i feel buzzed still from yesterday so it was like that kind of feeling i hadn't my body hadn't experienced going on a full day bender before yeah like from sun up to sundown trying to drink 25 beers i've been i've been getting pretty good at dialing in like my pace like if i'm like right this is why it's important to count your cans if i'm like i might title the episode count your cans if i'm if i'm trying to like go to see how much i can drink i've dialed it in you've got an idea cause I mean sometimes I'll just go home from work and I'll just play some video games or watch
Starting point is 00:25:31 TV and I'll just be like you're like I know if I drink four now I can drink another two to four later and be good I'll just be sipping it and I'll just like I just keep the same drinking pace instead of like when you know, sometimes
Starting point is 00:25:45 we're drinking, we're like, okay, we've had six. All right, let's shotgun one. All right, let's have two. Let's shotgun one. Like, I think it just fucks my head and I just get thrown way off because like if I just stay with the same exact pace, if I stay with the same exact pace, dude, I could, I would be fucked up, but I think I could probably kill a 30 rack. It's like...
Starting point is 00:26:06 I'm serious. It's like a marathon. If you get in that rhythm, you gotta find your rhythm. You gotta find the pace. Like, it's... You know what my dad always says? Here's a good Rudy-ism for you guys. I know you like your Rudy-isms.
Starting point is 00:26:24 I don't remember who said it. It's always... I don't remember who said it it's always i don't know who said it but it's something my dad says and who knows where he picked it up from or who he picked it up from but whenever you're like drinking whenever someone's drinking or he's drinking or well he doesn't drink anymore um but the saying goes are you pacing yourself and then he goes i think i think someone would say it ask my dad if he was pacing himself meaning like as fast as i can yeah well he would say i am pacing myself as fast as i can go yeah i'm sure that's a common saying i don't think my dad invented that our neighbor eli came over the other night and i got a 12 pack of coronas and we went and like
Starting point is 00:27:06 took the dog to the dog park and then we came back and ate supper like i cooked supper and he went and cooked supper and then we fixed my balcony and then by the end of the night i had like two coronas left and i was like i don't even like i've been drinking my beer like i'm i'm like i have a really heavy buzz but like i'm not drunk two out of a six pack a 12 pack a 12 pack like i was just like but it was just that pace and i was like and this is a tuesday night ladies and gentlemen it was it wasn't actually it might have been a wed. Oh, my bad. Wednesday. It's kind of the same concept.
Starting point is 00:27:59 If you guys want to drink a lot, do not sit down and just try to drink. Stay active. Honestly, that's also true. Because if you sit down and you get to like that like seven eight point and then you stand up you're like oh my fuck if you've ever had a backyard party you know firsthand you feel like you can drink forever and like if you're up if you're up playing cornhole you know talking listening to music going to the snack table getting food you're walking around you know maybe playing catch like at a tailgate or something and then you go and then you go and sit down and you're just like oh fuck i didn't realize how drunk i was
Starting point is 00:28:39 my soon-to-be mother-in-law told me something, and I'm like, that is very smart. Because we were talking about drinking or something when she was back. She was visiting. And she was like, for me to have a good night of drinking, it's got to be karaoke or good music. That's like fun drinking. How often do they do karaoke? Whenever they have enough people over to do it, I guess. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:29:12 It's not just her and I don't know if I can say his name. Can I say his name? My father-in-law. Is it just her and your soon-to-be father-in-law just singing karaoke by themselves in the garage probably not no um i don't know but then i was like i think a lot of that does too like it i think it's all mindset drinking is all mindset if you go in well if you go in and you're like i'm gonna get absolutely slammed tonight you're gonna feel slammed after like seven beers because i think your mind wants you to think that you're fucked up that i don't like planned drinking very much yeah
Starting point is 00:30:10 when i know like if we're like hey we're going out well and i guess it depends on well like let me give you an example this was like the first like the first time we went downtown with Lena's friend group. I was like, I didn't really have a lot of experience with going downtown because some of my friends didn't really like going downtown. Like the people that I majority hang out with um so i wasn't really used to going on bar crawls on the weekends or um they were like so they basically we were planning on going downtown that night and they are like we're gonna pre-game over here till about 9 30 yeah that and then that's when they go downtown and i a really care about my sleep i get worried about not getting enough sleep um but then the fact that i'm thinking about the fact that i'm going downtown to drink
Starting point is 00:31:19 and it's planned and there's a a whole premonition about the situation. Like, I get worried. I don't know. Like, I don't know. I think I'm a weirdo. I think I'm a weirdo. Because when it comes down to, like, going out to the bars, some people are like, yeah, let's go at this time. And I'm like, dude, that's so fucking late.
Starting point is 00:31:39 But I think a lot of it in my head is like, what if we're having a really good time? Okay, we started super late. Then the bar is going to close. And then what are we going to do? Whereas if we start early and we're like, we've had a few and we're like, yeah, we're not really. All right, let's go home. Well, guess what? You still have something to do with your night.
Starting point is 00:31:56 But then, I mean, I don't know. I think I don't, if they went in with the, with the plan that they were going to close down the bars, then it's like, if you get there from 10, 10 to 2, that's four hours. Yeah. I mean, you can get a lot of drinking done in four hours, but I don't know. Yeah. I mean. Versus if we're just kind of, like, hanging out and, like,
Starting point is 00:32:19 we have a general idea where we're going to hang out, like the boys are coming over and we know there's going to be drinking, but I don't know how much. Yeah, exactly. And, like... I guess also the factor of, like, thinking about rides and, you know, there's going to be other people there. Yeah. Maybe I just have anxiety. I know I do.
Starting point is 00:32:43 But I think you learned this but planned drinking planned drinking i mean a little bit nervous see in it's weird me and you get along so well but we're polar opposites we are in some aspects in some aspects because like if you have something going on you're like this is when we're doing it we'll do it it this time. We'll start this at this time. We'll start this at this time. Versus I'm like, well, whatever fucking happens, happens. But the other night you said when the first night we went to Cappy's, you're like, oh, my God, that was so fun. We thought we were only going to be there for a couple hours.
Starting point is 00:33:20 And then we ended up staying there and we were there till fucking what time? Midnight? 1030? Midnight? 1030? Midnight? Yeah, we, um, yeah, I know exactly. So I liked that. I needed that. I'm trying to, um, I'm trying to do more of, well, not worrying as in a lot of times when there's a social situation going on, whether it's a party or an event or a holiday.
Starting point is 00:33:56 I four times set up an expectation. Yeah. And I get worried that my expectation I set is not going to be met seeing that's where i think we're the same is i i hold very high expectations for the people around me but then when the expectations expectations fall through then i get upset with myself versus i just need to start being like but mine is situational yeah like a couple years ago for the 4th of July, me and a couple buddies went down to Missouri beforehand and bought fireworks. And we all spent quite a bit of money and we were planning on having kind of this big 4th of July. And then one of my friends and his girlfriend got COVID.
Starting point is 00:34:43 And the other one was like well now that things kind of fell apart we're gonna go do fourth of july with my girlfriends and so i was kind of like well fuck i had all these big plans and ambitions for this how this fourth of july was gonna go and then i was like well i still want to try to make the most of it and so i was like really bent out of shape i was like i was like it was it's so dumb because it's a vacation it's a it's a fun party celebration type of thing and i was bent out of shape about trying to make sure it was exactly the way i wanted not necessarily the way i wanted it i just wanted it to be the best that it possibly could um well it's like i was going golfing on sunday last sunday i was so
Starting point is 00:35:34 mentally down that entire week and then it was literally you felt like shit. We went golfing. I was kind of sick. We went golfing. And I was just. But I still went. Because I'm not a pussy. I kind of started the morning. I started out. I woke up the same way I was waking up the entire week. Like emotionally down.
Starting point is 00:35:59 And then after we went golfing and we just relaxed. Like I just said fuck it. Like quit worrying about everything around me. Just had fun. I have felt so much better. Well, yeah. I mean, it was good to get out and about. And, um, but anyways, like you were saying, we ended up going to Cappy's. Um, and I had an idea in my mind of how the night would go. I figured we'd go there around 7, hang out for a couple hours, drink, play a couple games of pool,
Starting point is 00:36:30 and then probably come back to my place where we'd finish the night and just hang out. But that's not where the night took us. We ended up staying there, like you said, until probably 11.30 midnight. But it was a blast yeah and i think part of it was because i had an idea but i didn't set expectations and i didn't put an agenda in my head of how the night should go because in a situation like that there's no agenda yeah there isn't any way the night should go yeah it's however the night could go is how it will go yeah it's how it should have been yeah um the only other thing i will say about that fourth
Starting point is 00:37:15 of july was i i also get this way during the summertime because of our work when we get super so with with our work we work at a golf course um the summertime um is really busy season for us and we usually get a lot of overtime we have to stay late monday through friday honest to god all we do is work in the summer we work really we work a shit ton and then we get home and we're dead tired and we basically veg out and then have to get up early in the morning and do it all again so it's very draining and we usually get one weekend day off um and so whenever that happens i'm like this is my one day out of the week where i need to take full advantage of doing what i want or having fun or just maximizing my one day off and that was kind of the thing for the fourth of july i think i had the neck i think i had either that day off or the next day off yeah the next day off was that that was yeah of the thing for the 4th of July. I think I had either that day off or the next day off.
Starting point is 00:38:26 Yeah, the next day off. That was, yeah, because that's when we went to, we can say whose house we went to, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, we went to Trace's house, correct? I'm thinking of the one where we did it. Because it wasn't the bucket of Roman candles. I'm thinking of the one where it was in my parents backyard where trey slid off that pikachu firework yeah that's the one where i was really worried about oh yeah yeah yeah yeah that's the one
Starting point is 00:38:57 where i was really worried about i don't know what because because all the plans, my original plans fell through and I felt like I needed to maximize. It's, it's so weird that the only thing I was wanting to have as much fun as I physically and mentally could. And I ended up getting in my own way and making it not fun. I do that a lot. But like when I was in this emotionally down thing last week, Bailey was like, a lot of it...
Starting point is 00:39:32 Can you move your mic up a little bit? So it's, like, right in front of your mouth. Sorry. It won't stay. There we go. Or just, like, kind of aim your mouth down a little bit. Yeah. Bailey was like it a lot of
Starting point is 00:39:47 what was going on with me and that thing was bailey was like you're always working you're always super busy at work and family always weighs really heavy on me because when it boils down to it you have friends but family is the closest thing to you right and i was like and should be the most important thing and our family's growing like my family's growing my sister just had a kid my brother had a kid and i was like i'm just so like caught up in work and then when we get a day off of work i'm like man i want to go with my friends because we're gonna have fun right but then once it actually off of work, I'm like, man, I want to go with my friends because we're going to have fun. Right.
Starting point is 00:40:27 But then once it actually boiled down to it, I'm like, my family's growing. I have two nieces now. And, like, I'm missing so much of that because of. Well, you also live decent ways away from your family. So that's kind of hard for you. And I was like, and she's like's like well but i get what you're saying like when it's such a shitty thing but it's hard when you can't change because we we pick the job we pick but when yeah because i'll get my one day off which is maximizing sometimes it's not like the you know same uh like day is like all my
Starting point is 00:41:11 friends like because some days like i'll work saturday or i'll work sunday but the jake and spencer work saturday opposite day yeah so it's like, okay. So basically... Well, now I can go out and have a little bit of fun, but now I know I got to work tomorrow. Basically, it's like, well, if I work Sunday, I need to do my drinking Friday night. Yeah. Because, I mean, you can...
Starting point is 00:41:39 Nothing's stopping you from drinking Saturday night, except no one likes to work with a hangover if you drink a lot basically you can't go as hard as you'd like to if you have to work the next day and if your buddies aren't working the same the next day yeah then then you're the odd man out a little bit in a sense but like I know there was a couple times last year when you're like really in the grind if any of you guys that listen work on a golf course and your guys' is nonstop like ours is, you'll understand this. But sometimes on my one day off, I'm like, okay, I'm going to play video games until this time, and then I'm going to go do something with the rest of my day like this.
Starting point is 00:42:21 It sucks. You feel like you have to plan it out because it's such a rarity like exactly that's what i'm saying i'm trying to maximize i'm trying to get as much out of my day off as i can well and that was like uh even like when we went to me with Bailey's family, it was like her mom was really like, yeah, like I want to, you know, I want to go. Like she wanted to go like snorkeling and do all that. And she was like, tries to plan things. But after that was over, she was like, this is so much more relaxing. Like not planning the vacation.
Starting point is 00:43:02 Yeah. Like going there. Not following an agenda whatever itinerary yeah like whatever happens happens yeah and leave it and and then i was kind of like which i did get sick but like you know you're you're away from home and it's like okay well we got to be dressed and ready to go to dinner at this time because we made a dinner reservation but then we got to go snorkeling it's like yeah you're like you're getting ahead of yourself a little bit yeah and like and i've kind of been a little bit it's like this winter especially we've done a lot of weekends where we hung out
Starting point is 00:43:42 with the boys you know what i mean it'll be like Friday night, I'm hitting the group chat going like, what's everyone doing this weekend? Because that's a little bit of my, in the same way that I'm trying to maximize one weekend day in the summer. I'm like, well, the winter is when we should be taking full advantage of our time off since the summer gets really busy. So I'm trying to have a lot of fun during the winter because we don't get a lot of weekends off. But leading back to what we said about cappies, I'm trying to make more of an attempt at just letting the cards unfold. Mm-hmm. And not doing as much planning, whether it's actually me messaging the group chat and planning out what we're doing. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:44:41 Or myself mentally planning how I'm going to try to steer the night. Yeah. To go and just roll with the punches. Because I think that's better for me to just my hands are free of this matter and whatever happens happens yeah kind of deal yeah like i don't need to always be the ringleader going we should do this here at this time and then when we're done with that come back to my house and then do this. Yeah. And then now you guys need to leave so I can go to bed. It doesn't need to always be like that.
Starting point is 00:45:32 But like the times that I think we've done, like our had our most fun and stuff is when it's just like spur of the moment hey like our basketball night we had so much fun during the day yeah it was like hey fuck it like you know what we're at work we're like yeah let's go play basketball and i don't even know what what me and spencer were thinking about because it was spencer and i've been saying that we've wanted to do that for a while yeah we have been saying that or've wanted to do that for a while. Yeah, we have been saying that. Or the ice skating night. Like, that was so much fun. Yeah, because it was kind of just like, let's go.
Starting point is 00:46:12 I don't even know what's going to happen. I don't even know if they're open. That was like, Bailey was like, what is your guys' kind of plan? And you're like, I don't even know what the kind of plan is all i know is we're going ice skating we might end up at a few bars after that we might we might end up in an alley just come straight home i i don't know and i need more of that and i think you do too yeah i need to because let's go to a strip club after this. Fuck it. Right. Spur of the moment, man.
Starting point is 00:46:47 No agenda. Right. Let's text our girl. We'll tell her. Well, I'll just go upstairs and tell my girl. I'll text my lovely fiance. For mental reasons. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:46:59 It's good for my mental psyche. If I go to the strip club right now. You know what? It's really going to help my seasonal depression. Ass and titties. And that's where we're going. Have you seen the campaign? No, I want to watch it. What? You haven't seen the campaign? I've seen the clips
Starting point is 00:47:14 of, I once shoved an entire handful of lightning bugs up my butt to see if my parts would glow. You need to watch the campaign. There's a There's so many good quotes in a biker chick at the bar or whatever what does the kid say um there's a late like he's like there's a lady on the corner that let me touch her titty or something like that i'm not as versed in the campaign and they're like
Starting point is 00:47:38 they're like we're not gonna judge we're not gonna get mad and then the dad's like what and then kind of honey um anyways yeah one of my favorite one of my favorite parts of that movie let's steer this back into a comedic podcast because we got we were in the shadows a little bit there we got kind of dark but my 40s gone we're steering it back um cam's about to glug his podcast was is just us shooting the shit so yeah i mean sometimes that's where our conversations go some podcasts we're not just some podcasts just paint the podcast of we're not just garbage disposals that get old beer dumped down them we're human beings did that almost make you sure we're not did that almost make you spew? Are you sure we're not? Did that almost make you spew? Yeah, because I was thinking of something in my head. What were you thinking of?
Starting point is 00:48:30 Because you said, we're not just garbage. Bad dragon? No, we're not just garbage disposals that get old beer dumped down our throats. And I was about to say, are you sure? As I was literally just dumping it down my throat. Oh, come here. It's good it out of my throat. Oh. Come here. It's good. One of my favorite.
Starting point is 00:48:49 Okay. Back to the comedy. One of my favorite parts in that movie is. So Zach Galifianakis is the guy who's running against Will Ferrell. I don't know. I've literally only seen the dinner clip of that movie. Okay. So basically Will ferrell and
Starting point is 00:49:06 zach galifianakis you know galifianakis you know who that is right the guy from the hangover the meme where he's counting cards oh yeah between two ferns yeah yeah the other guy in the movie, the dad in the movie clip that you've seen. Oh yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Him, that actor, him and Will Ferrell are both running for, it's like,
Starting point is 00:49:33 it's not, it's like, it's not even governor. It's like, I don't even know. It's something, it's something pretty low. Okay.
Starting point is 00:49:42 I'm picking up what you're putting up. Um, and like Zach Galifianakis tries to sabotage Will Ferrell. So he, like, brings him over to his house one night and gets him drunk. And then right when he leaves, Will Ferrell leaves, he immediately calls the cops and is like, I want to report a drunk driver and Will Ferrell's car he drives is just like covered in stickers like campaign style like to advertise himself yeah and like the driver's seat is a picture of Will Ferrell going like like it's just like a clean cut picture of him and then the officer walks up to the window and then he rolls down the window and it's like a picture of Will Ferrell
Starting point is 00:50:22 that rolls down and it's Will Ferrell that's like fucking drunk, and he just has a $100 bill, and he goes, in God we must. And he tries to hand him a $100 bill to like pay him off. Wasn't that really funny? What I just told you? You didn't laugh very hard. In God we must. In God we must.
Starting point is 00:50:43 Which is funny because it actually says in God we trust. Yeah. So he said the words wrong because he's drunk. He's trying to pay off an officer. That's why it's hilarious. And it's a comedically funny moment.
Starting point is 00:51:02 You are now one of my employees. We need to find out who that is because it's not michelle obama but um oh shit um a funny like side story the other day something funny the other day we were working on the golf, and then a bunch of geese just decided to start landing on all of the buildings. That was actually kind of creepy. Yeah, it was weird. Have you ever seen a goose land on a building? No.
Starting point is 00:51:33 Leave a comment if you've ever seen a goose, a Canadian goose, goose, a Canadian goose... Speech impediment. Leave a comment if you've ever seen a Canadian Goose on the top of a building. Right on the shingles. And they looked... It was like they couldn't get traction, so they were like... It was like an Armageddon kind of moment. Yeah, it was so weird.
Starting point is 00:52:00 I've never seen that. We should ask Richie. I have a video of it. That's a good point. That's a good point. I have a video of it. We should send that to Richie. We should ask Richie. I have a video of it. That's a good point. That's a good point. I have a video of it. We should send that to Richie. We should ask Richie after this.
Starting point is 00:52:09 We're not going to call him on the pod. Not on the pod. We'll call him after. Yeah, and then we'll update you guys in the next episode about what he... We won't remember, but we'll update you. We'll try. I'm feeling a little buzzed after that. I'm not going to lie.
Starting point is 00:52:25 Are you? Even though it's only like two, four, six, eight. It's three beers and almost a fourth beer. Yeah. No. But I also realized that like, I'm always like, man, why do I get so fucked up on the podcast? It's because we drink six beers in an hour okay shut the fuck up um a lot of people's paces is a beer an hour
Starting point is 00:52:54 but um right before you got here my landlord called me which the last time i got you about wood no well it was about wood um the last time i got a call from her apparently the owner of this house was upset about the wood that i have stacked up aside against the side of my house which is a brick house but granted the framing of the house is wood but also if termites could get through the brick and mortar to the framing i think there might be a different problem at hand than if there was woods with termite against um but she called me and there's like a there's like a branch i guess there's like a branch on someone's shed and a branch halfway up a tree that's detached from the tree.
Starting point is 00:53:45 It was almost like a Tom call. It's detached from the tree. You can just pull it out kind of thing. But I don't know. I don't know if I'm going to need help, and I don't know. Apparently, she said she was going to send pictures and an address. We didn't need to do that today? It feels like it.
Starting point is 00:54:02 No. I told her that I could maybe... I said, can it wait till Sunday afternoon? And she said yes. So... It feels like a GTA mission, kind of. Because I don't know how much I'm going to get paid. I don't know how much I'm going to get paid.
Starting point is 00:54:18 It just needs pulled off? Apparently, it just needs taken off the roof. And taken out of the tree. But if I can't get to it, then she said it's okay like you know i don't know but basically i've been tasked with this freelance branch removal mission jake you're treating like this is like your ass like that's what i'm saying she's making acid on gta, you're fucking making coke on GTA. She was like, okay, let's reel it in. She was like... She's like, take a branch off a tree for me.
Starting point is 00:54:51 Lester. Lester wants a... Lester has a branch on a tree. I need to call Lester to take my wanted level off. So I can complete the mission. Nobody knows what the fuck we're talking about. Only Ben and Trace know what we're talking about right now. Anybody that played GTA knows what we're talking about right now. Anybody that played GTA knows what we're talking about right now.
Starting point is 00:55:09 I don't even know if they know what GTA means. Do you know what Grand Theft Auto 5 is? With Lester the... Lester. Trace calls him Uncle Mo. Uncle Mo. Mo Lester. Michael and Franklin and Trevor.
Starting point is 00:55:24 I actually didn't play any of the story mode i was like i played i was like i'm hopping straight into online i don't give a fuck i've played this story mode four times because i tried to speed around anyways she called me and she was like if you can get it down you know tell me how much it costs and i was like what like you want me to tell you how much it costs 700 what happens if i get it down and i'm just like that'll be 800 and she's like i'm not paying you that and i'm just like throw it back up into the tree it's down from the tree i don't know what you want me to do you told me to tell you how much it cost but i don't know i'm i'm guessing it'll be like i don't know 50 bucks off of my rent oh i told her at least i got 150 100 bucks but i'm just like i'm i'm gonna pull it down and then
Starting point is 00:56:14 call her like i'm serious it's like a gta mission i'm gonna call her until i got it down and then i'm just gonna wait for the top right of the screen to see like 20 000 like i don't know and then you're just gonna go up into the clouds and then. Right. My RP is going to go up. Oh, God. I don't even know how much we were recording because my mom called me. And so whenever someone calls me on my laptop, it cuts the mic off.
Starting point is 00:56:41 But Cam's going to check on Lena's laptop. How long we've been going for. 56 minutes. There was another thing I wanted to talk about. We got a little bit psychological in this episode. Yeah, this was a deeper episode. A little bit deep. Count your cans.
Starting point is 00:57:06 I don't know if we can count cans. Deep. It's got a deeper meaning if you really think about it. Always count your cans. Always count your pennies. And it also a little bit has to relate to me getting in my own head. What does it say
Starting point is 00:57:23 about me versus you? This isn't an attack on you okay okay just bear with me whenever i am in front of you you're directly behind me and i pull over and stop at the gas station and you keep going i always look in my rearview mirror and think is he gonna stop because he sees me stopping and i'm like if i was right behind him and i saw he was stopping at the gas station i would 100 pull into the gas station even if i had no plan on getting anything what does that say about me versus you i seen you pull in there but i was just really down on money and i would have pulled in and that's always your excuse that's always my excuse what do you mean motherfucker no i'm like i know he's been like hurting for money a little bit lately and he probably doesn't
Starting point is 00:58:17 really you know except the other days you were just like i need to go get my after work casey's shopping done where you go and get three well then that's why three chicken sandwiches and a monster is that why you went to the casey's was specifically for me to pull over no i didn't go specifically for you to pull over i went because i wanted an energy drink and i was hungry but when you're directly behind me and i do it i'm always like is he gonna pull over because he sees me pulling over? You know, it's like. It's kind of like the time.
Starting point is 00:58:49 It's kind of like the time where we stopped at the gas station and you. I. Is there something down here? No, I'm not doing that. Entertain the folks. Jake has a funny story of one time we stopped at the lovely gas station by work, and we both got two things of mini tacos. In that process, Jake was on his way home.
Starting point is 00:59:20 He turned a corner a little too fast and launched his last mini taco over by his passenger door. This guy proceeded to stop the vehicle, pull over, stop the vehicle to grab said mini taco and toss it into his guzzer. It was like a chicken bite. And I did tell the story on the podcast. I don't know if you remember me telling you that or not but um count your mini tacos count your mini tacos count your pink tacos um that was so dumb um martin um anyways it's like, have any of you out there had a roommate, like a college dorm room roommate? Or, I don't know.
Starting point is 01:00:11 Can any of you, please leave a comment on this because I want feedback. Have you ever, like, if your roommate was like, I need to go to Walmart, but you didn't necessarily need anything. Would you just tag along with them because it's fun? Because if you're telling me it's not fun just to go to Walmart and look around, then either A, get the fuck out of the Midwest, or B, you're just lying. Because I feel like there's two types of people. There's two types of people. There's two types of people. You with me?
Starting point is 01:00:48 One person, their roommate says, hey, I need to go to Walmart. And then person A goes, yeah, I'll go with you. Even though they don't really need anything. Person B, let's say person A is like, I to go to walmart because i need something
Starting point is 01:01:07 and person b goes okay and person a goes you want to go with and person b goes why i don't need anything you know what i mean i mean if you're like hey this is a this is a little different situation than if you're like hey i need to run to blah, blah, blah. It's kind of like Spencer. He texted me one day. He's like, hey, I'm running to Dick's Sporting Goods to get Courtney Valentine's Day gifts. I'm going to buy her some golf clubs. And you want to ride with?
Starting point is 01:01:37 Okay, sure. I'll ride with you. Yeah. I mean, that's different. That's different than just stopping at a gas station after work. Yeah. Where it's going to be a five-second trip. But, like, if we were roommates and I'm like, hey, I'm going to Walmart.
Starting point is 01:01:53 Yeah. Nine times out of ten, you'd probably be like, I'll come with because I got nothing going on. Yeah, I'm sitting here. Even if you had three assignments due, you'd be like, yeah, fuck yeah. You know what I mean? I'm a procrastinator. I don't give a fuck about work. But, and that's me i'm that person so it doesn't register to me if you if it was the tables were turned and i was like hey i need to go to walmart and then the other person's like
Starting point is 01:02:19 well i don't need anything yeah so i don't know why i would go yeah like it doesn't even occur to that person why they would go which is so weird it's not about what you need it's about you accompanying your friend honest to god but they're only worried about what they need it's like a level of selfishness honest to god when you did stop at casey's i was like i was should i stop and just even if i don't even i was thinking about just being the dick and just crossing two lanes just to fucking go but i was like yeah like even if you didn't get anything just uh yeah just i don't know like it's i could have probably found something i wanted or needed not really well and i mean that might have been me being a bad influence
Starting point is 01:03:04 because you would have been like, well, I don't really need anything. But now that he's stopping there, I might put $5 in the bank shop machine. Now I'm calling it a bank shop machine, even though it's not. Yeah, it's a skills machine. Okay.
Starting point is 01:03:17 Okay. But, uh... Should we end it here? Yeah, I have to please. I have to peace. I have to pee. I have to make pee. I have to make pee-pee in porcelain. I'm definitely going to play some Rainbow Six Siegeman again.
