Do you want me to tell you something really embarrassing?
Yeah.
I feel like I'm drunk enough now I can say it.
Okay, go.
I wrote like half of a country song in my head.
It's called Welcome to the Midwest. uh welcome to for whatever reason cam gets hyped to men at work down under uh podcast
that's cam i'm jake and we are the grass daddies um This is an audio only episode because honestly, dude, we can use this as kind of a plug.
Yeah.
Because the reason why we don't have video is because we don't have a tripod here.
And the reason why we don't have a tripod is because we forgot it because Jake forgot it at my house.
And then I forgot to bring it to him, even though I thought about it this morning because I cut his hair. Yes, I was going to say. But why is it at my house and then I forgot to bring it to him even though I thought about it this morning
because I cut his hair.
Yes, I was going to say, but why is it at your house?
And that is on YouTube if you guys would like to watch
because Jake is very upset that he got his hair for only 26 views.
I'm like, I put myself on the line for 26 fucking views.
This is horseshit.
No, actually, the reason I'm not going to front with you guys,
the reason why it's audio only is because Cam fucked my shit up and i just couldn't stand to have it on video no we
actually left the the tripod at cam's house i keep wanting to look over here like there's a camera
yeah it's kind of weird this is the this is the first time we're deliberately doing an audio only
we've done audio only before but only when our software fucked up or our camera
malfunctioned or something or other and while we got this started this is gonna be a pretty big
change of the podcast i'm because it's probably gonna be one of our last episodes here it is
gonna be i am moving back home from where I originally grew up.
So Jake's currently crying.
You guys can't see it.
So it'll be a little different.
We're going to figure that out how we want to do it.
But we're still going to try video, correct?
Yeah.
There's lots of people that do podcasts at separate locations.
Like Zoom. I mean, i have like a decent webcam um we'll have to figure it out i mean we could use
our phones and record ourselves and stitch it together there's lots of different ways we could
do it yeah basically as long as you have a mic and a laptop to record it yeah so i gotta get that stuff figured out so i was talking to jake today
we are kind of doing me and my fiance we're kind of doing a separate thing because
my job that i got there i had to go home early so i'll probably be using her laptop for
this because i don't see a reason for us to both buy a laptop and especially when the only thing i
use a laptop for is the podcast.
And spank your shit. Yeah, and spank the shit
out of my shit.
Fuck my shit up.
So,
there will be a
couple episodes with guests.
I think Jake's lining some up.
I don't know. It's whatever.
Or, depending,
we might still do a couple videos because I'll probably still come back on the weekends sometimes.
But we'll figure that out.
We'll get back to you.
But just a heads up, things will change.
Things are going to be changing.
We'll figure it out.
There's always a possibility we could record a couple at a time and then upload them later.
You know,
it's going to be,
it's going to be a little bit of a hodgepodge until we really get it down.
Um,
but yeah,
what about this podcast?
Is it right?
Exactly.
And that we're still recording on a nothing that are table,
nothing that our dedicated viewers aren't used to.
but to reiterate what cam said um
the the podcast is still a go yeah it might be a little different yeah um i might be able i might
be able to get back in touch with that guy um that i met on the black market and he might still
have a he might have a mini fridge that he can get you too
so we can keep up with the shenanigans.
Yeah, because if not, I'm just going to have to drink water
straight out of the tap. I'm not going to be able to drink, you know?
What'll be interesting is to see if
they sync to each other and do the same
thing or if they give us different things.
True.
So, I don't know.
But to quote Leo,
the show goes on! Yes, it will still be. And that's not saying, you know, I don't know. But to quote Leo, the show goes on.
Yes, it will still be.
And that's not saying, you know, I could be with my new job, I'm going to have like more time.
Like weekends are going to be off.
So, there will probably still be.
So, you can help out with editing and stuff?
Sure.
Actually, that's not a probably.
That was funny funny there will be
episodes that we will still do together we'll just plan it like hey i'm coming down you know let's
we could maybe record a couple or two or three at a time you know
fuck the possibilities are endless and it could be a thing of I come down, we record a couple, you know, face of us videoed.
And then when I can't make it back, it's audio only.
Who knows?
But we'll figure it out as we go.
Just like anything that we do.
But the podcast will still be here.
The show goes on.
With that being said, i need something to drown
my sorrows so would you please for the love of christ almighty let's see what the magic mini
fridge has camera looking over to your right at the camera that's not there man so what we have
before us um are what are known as beat boxes these like alien such things are like in like a
milk carton protein shake carton yeah describe for our listeners that don't know immediately
what they are they are they're very colorful one percent alcohol by volume oh this was supposed to
be a alcohol-free episode what What are you doing to us?
We definitely did not want to drink tonight.
So we have...
Would you get me one already?
Yeah, we have...
Or are you just going to sit there and...
Which one would you like?
You have Juicy Mango and Blue Raspberry.
I have Fruit Punch and Pink Lemonade.
Give me that...
Give me that juice.
The juice, man. I was... You know what what i didn't do this on purpose but i mean god damn it um i was just thinking about this um yesterday while i was
praying dandelions we had a our defensive coordinator um on the football team at midland
he would always sit he would always, who's got the juice?
And then everyone would go,
woo!
So right now, I have the juice.
But like Cam said,
they are 16 ounce,
16.9 ounce beverages.
That tastes like a fucking fruit punch.
Beverages that are 11.1% and they're in these paper carton, like milk carton type things.
Pretty cool thing.
Does yours taste like juicy mango?
I've got a juicy mango.
A little bit.
It kind of tastes like someone took a bug juice and then dumped out half of it and put vodka in the rest true true actually that
makes it a lot better that makes it better when you think about it like i love bug juice
were you a bug juicer a hogwash guy bug juice yeah fuck that hogwash anyone that drank hogwash
you can't hardly find bug juice anywhere as long as only Russ's. Didn't you have one not too long ago?
Only at Russ's.
Okay, what's yours? Fruit Punch.
Yeah, get that little scander.
That's Fruit Punch.
Kinda.
It's like a feeble attempt at a Fruit Punch flavor.
Like you can tell they tried but they fell
far short far short like the very initial taste it gets going you're like oh
yeah and then it just um oh and we skipped last week's episode
technically technically yeah we did um But the haircut video was...
We'll just say that was the episode.
Yes.
We uploaded something.
It was only a 14-minute video of me getting my haircut.
But I honestly...
After I recorded it, like, when I was getting ready to edit it,
I was talking to Lena.
I was like, I feel like this video is just...
Like, I felt like it was boring.
But then as I was editing it, I was like, it's actually kind of funny.
Like when I pieced it together a little bit.
Because we had like an hour.
It took Cam a while because he was really trying.
I don't want to spoil anything.
But I was worried it was going to be just like a...
I was worried it was just going to be like, this is not entertaining.
But it ended up being pretty funny.
So definitely you should go.
If you're an audio only person, go to our YouTube channel, which is just Graph Studies Podcast.
And the video is up.
Yes.
And leave a comment because me and Jake are interested to see if our listeners would like us to.
Keep going.
Maybe do more videos like that or. or right and you guys give us your feedback
if you think it's not our thing then fuck you because we're still gonna do it say say no because
it's a lot of editing so say that you hated the format and you'd rather us just sit here and talk
because it's much easier to edit um but yeah so um was it was it after ice skating that spencer had these beat boxes yes
um and he was already drinking mick ultra all night yeah he he was worried about getting out
on that ice he's like i need him what did he say he was saying he needed liquid courage
or whatever he needed a beer before it.
And then Spencer's sitting there, and he's telling me, he's like, dude, I fucking suck at ice skating.
I'm like, well, I do too, so come out on the ice with me so I don't look like the only idiot.
And this fucker gets out and just, like, is randomly good at it when he's drunk.
I'm like, uh, I wouldn't go as far as to say he was good.
No, not good at it, but, like, he started but he started just cruising on the fucking out in the middle.
I did not leave the wall, so that's my hopes and dreams of being a pro skater. Maybe you needed some liquid courage.
Maybe.
See, but I needed something to protect my melon, because ever since I've gotten all my concussions...
Were you a little worried you were going to fall on? Yeah, and hit my melon because ever since i've gotten all my concussions were you a little worried you were gonna fall on yeah i feel like that's the kind of thing where it's just like you're gonna
do worse if you're like skating more cautiously than if you like actually just kind of push off
and just trust the skates to glide you around yeah but i think i think if i had if i had my
helmet on if you had a hockey helmet on, you'd just be crashing into everything with reckless abandon?
No, I might have tried a little harder.
I would have got out.
But I don't know.
I don't like having concussions.
Who does?
Not I, senpai.
But yeah, following that event uh we went to a bar um and our friend proceeded to
have five of these and was i drove him home and uh i drove us home you drove us home and then i
took him back to his apartment oh yeah i wasn't drinking at all by
the way no so i was okay to drive us home yeah yeah so anyways so uh we get to the mcdonald's
and the truck just he was just like this tastes like shit the whole way home he's just sitting there like just talking talking talking
talking and then we get to mcdonald's i'm like should we get the girls home you know they've
probably stayed up late waiting for us i feel like we're at mcdonald's yeah they definitely did not
oh isn't that the same time you got home and she was asleep and you're like, I got nuggets. And she's like, huh? Yeah. Well, but if you are in a relationship, you know damn well you go to McDonald's.
You better not come home empty handed.
Yeah, you go to McDonald's, you best not come home empty handed.
So we politely got the girl something and Spencer tells me what he wants.
Because Courtney was sleeping with Bailey in bed.
No.
I drove him to their apartment.
And then I went home.
Get that image out of your head.
You little pervert.
What do you mean? Why does it have to be sexual?
Just kidding.
Dude, this thing's going to my head already.
This thing's turning me upside down.
Why do you think they call it a beatbox?
Am I just going to start fucking throwing down a beat real quick if you hit the right amount?
I think it was because they kind of, I think they were going for like a summer vibe,
like people chilling around the pool or on the beach with their beatbox, you know, their boombox.
Why was the number that they landed on
11.1 i don't know how i think the demographic thereafter was like we're going after people
that are trying to get fucked up so let's just get them there you know quick i think they should
just take this and make like a beatbox junior.
Something that actually tastes good, but that's like 6%.
What you're describing is a light version of beatbox light.
Yeah, but I'm saying I want it to be junior.
What if they just take the original strength version of the beverage and then just take some calories off of it,
take a little alcohol out of it.
But you know what I mean?
Describe Bush Light.
Like, you know, how much of these would,
if you had one of these,
and you just,
when it actually tastes good,
and you're going to like a summer party,
you're going to chill at the pool,
grab one of these,
take it with you,
sip on this,
and then you can have beers after.
But at least it would taste good like a nice pool drink.
Well, but then I would have to drink twice as many.
True.
So let's just get it there.
I want to say, you guys can –
I don't know why I'm sitting here fucking pointing at it
because you guys cannot fucking see it.
It says try it frozen on the side.
I'm kind of intrigued.
That would be pretty good.
That would – yeah.
You know what?
Because then you could probably rip the top open and, like, eat it with a spoon, like a slushie.
Yeah, or you could just.
Like a total fucking asshole.
No.
What?
You know what it is?
Take me there.
It's literally the slushie.
Have you ever had a slushie?
Like, the white polar bear?
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Where they come in the pouch and you squeeze them?
I bet that's what you do.
I bet you squeeze it and then you.
Dude.
Drink it out of the top.
Everyone listening that has had these before is probably just like...
No shit.
Listening to these idiots figure out what a beatbox is for the first time.
World's tastiest party punch.
Try it frozen.
We're going to have to try it.
Gluten free and glass free.
We're going to have to try it.
Oh shit, it contains alcohol.
Anyways, back to the story uh spencer told me what he wants all of a sudden gets quiet i look over and he's passed out leaning
his head against my window and i'm like sleeping against the window yeah i'm like all right this
ought to be good and we you know what i'm gonna stop that story right there because we pull your
mic up a little we are going to i know
eventually we want to have spencer on so let's save the rest of that story for when spencer
he said he'd come on next week okay so are you gonna be able to do next week you're gonna be
here yeah next week i will be um yeah next week I have two weeks left.
So, next week and then the week after.
It's the final countdown.
It's the final countdown.
We're going to get copyrighted.
I know that singing is so good.
Did Spencer tell you about our idea today?
While we were changing cups?
Yeah, about your polo constrictor.
Dude, tell me that's not a genius name. If you could make it actually really work and work extremely well, you'd make a lot of money.
Because a lot of POA shit does not work.
Oh, grass.
Oh my god, are the grass tanks talking about grass?
Yes, we is.
Yep, timestamp it.
6.30, 16.30.
Yes, we is.
No shit is cut and it's cut the fuck up.
You need to cut it out.
Thought I won't go find
yeah i did i might have to watch that video again that video is so funny should we have
like an episode where we just watch some of our favorite funny videos or meme videos
we just react to them or like that would be a good episode anybody that's listening
dm us some of your like funniest like fucked up that means
direct message yeah fails anything that you guys find funny and we'll react to it you know what
you just pissed me off because i we have an avid listener you know who you are. That.
To say he laughs at my pain would be a little bit of an understatement.
He.
Cherishes the moments in which I have something unfortunate happen to me.
You know who you are.
Avid listener.
He just loves laughing his ass off. no he just loves laughing his ass off when i if it's by accident it's usually by accident i get unlucky somehow if i trip and fall
he's crying laughing and i'm like you love laughing at my pain um but anyways
where were you going with this they send in their unfortunate stories no like you guys send us like
videos that you find funny like short short clips like not fucking 20 minute long videos but short
like kind of like what fail army does or something like that. Like, some clips that you find that they want us to react to.
Or funny memes.
Obviously appropriate because we wouldn't react to anything inappropriate.
But, yeah, send us, like, what you guys think is funny memes or anything like that.
And maybe we'll have a straight-up episode where we just react to all those videos.
I did not eat enough food to be drinking this.
You had two slices of Zod, dude.
Not enough.
I didn't set the foundation enough.
Are you already pretty fucked up?
I'm not fucked up, but I'm definitely feeling it.
This thing's no joke.
But yeah, I'm no chemist,
but that is a fucking amazing name for if you could come up with a product for poa control that's a name that would sell a constrictor that would are you kidding me
um yeah but spencer is also trying to tell me he goes i'm like yeah dude but you know you'd have to
be a scientist do that he goes well jake has a spraying license i'm like that doesn't mean he can just mix fucking literally
all that means is that i can spray commercial grade herbicides yeah pesticides technically um
but uh Um, but, uh, I was going to say something funny that happened, but I forgot.
I've got, I've got a concept that I want to explore, but if you can't, if you can't think
of the thing, go for it.
Okay.
So this is kind of, this is definitely a jump into the side here.
I was pulling out of the parking lot in CVS the other day, picking up my...
I'm just, that wasn't funny.
I'm sorry, I don't know why I said that.
That was not funny.
I apologize to anyone who has.
I was picking up my medication from CVS Pharmacy.
2026.
You want to cut it out?
I might go back and cut that.
That was not funny.
Yeah, you might want to make a time stamp for that.
Anyways.
Anyways, I was pulling out of the cvs pharmacy parking lot
and have you ever been pulling out of a parking lot um
and like the trap like the traffic is held up and someone waits and makes a gap in the line
yeah so that you can turn through well this guy did that for me and
and as he was as i was pulling by him you know obviously it's a nice thing and like
he looked kind of younger like kind of my age and like i waved at him and he like waved at me
and i don't know what it was but in that moment it was just like
it was such a like it just such a genuine like nice gesture i felt like yeah that i was just like
i wish that i could have done something
um besides just like give him a thumbs like wave you know what i mean
yeah and it made me think as i was driving down the road i was like
is there anything that's the opposite of a middle finger because as we all know
what the middle finger means i think let's all say it let's all say it together one two three fuck you
we all know what it means but a thumbs up is not good enough for this scenario just giving a thumbs
up is like thumbs up is like saying good job yeah thumbs up is like a substitute for good job so
what is the opposite of a middle finger no that hi. Right. There needs to be the opposite.
What if we just do the middle finger but down?
The middle finger down?
Yeah.
Like, fuck up?
Fuck me?
What's the opposite of fuck you?
This is fuck me.
I want to fuck you?
I want you to fuck me?
I don't.
What's the opposite? Together as a society, we need to come up with, you know, American society is so, so quick to hostility and anger that everyone knows.
All of you knew exactly what I said with middle finger and we all recited it together.
I heard you.
I heard you all say it sitting at your computer, sitting in your car while you're listening to this.
I know you said it along because you know what it is.
We need to come up with something that's the opposite.
So what would be the opposite of fuck you?
A middle finger.
Because in that moment, I wished I could use it.
Index finger.
Like, should I have blown him a kiss i mean i
don't just because honestly in that moment i was so happy i was like i could jump out of this car
right now and plant one on you no i wasn't that happy but it was just such a like i don't know
it's just one of the see i was having a day not really but i but I don't know. I was overcome with joy in that moment.
It sounds weird, but it seemed like such a nice gesture.
I was like, I wish I could do more than just wave.
See, me driving home, I live three hours away from where I currently live.
So I came up with a game that I play with myself.
I don't play with myself.
Wait, what?
You don't play with myself. Wait, what? I play like three.
You don't live there yet.
No, but I'm saying when we drive home, like for vacation, like holidays or whatever. When you drive back home.
Yes.
When we go home for anything, I'll be all the truck drivers.
You know, when they turn a blinker on, they're getting over.
I'll flash my brights at them.
I love doing that.
And then they'll get over.
And then when they get back over there, I'll flash their hazards at them. I love doing that shit. And then they'll get over, and then when they get back over
they'll flash their hazards at you. Oh my god,
that's such a rewarding feeling.
So I just, anytime I see that, Bailey gets
so pissed because I'll slam on my brakes and I'll
flash my brights just to see if they get over.
And then whenever they do it, I just
count in my head and see how many I can get on
the way home.
You are,
you're like the golden retriever version of a human i just want to make
people happy well it's just fun you see how many truck drivers you can let in yeah and then how
many wow i only do it if they i only count them if they flash their hazards at me though
because that's making that means they're making a kind gesture back to me i hesitate to say this statement because it doesn't apply for all circumstances but
there needs to be more people like cam wellman in this world at least in that instance well and
then there's some people that like you know what i i really hate when i'm driving on the interstate
or whatever and you're in the left lane because there's a bunch of trucks and then somebody comes
fucking hauling ass and fucking jumps right in line with you.
And then they slow way down because there's another car there.
When you could have just waited five more fucking seconds and I would have been out of your way, you fucking prick.
Right.
Or when you just pass a semi and you're just like driving just far enough that you can finally get over without like just fucking.
And then they get in the right lane and haul ass past you and you're like, I was going to get over without like just fucking and then they get in
the right lane and haul ass past you and you're like i was gonna get over you fucking ass hat
right um call a drive colorado drivers especially my um uh my dad used to drive truck for um cisco
and so i have a little bit i i mean I just have a bit more admiration for truck drivers now
because like he used to drive up um north like into south and north Dakota where it would get
like icy in the winter and I know how stressed out he would get and he said like he hated being
away from us he was only he the longest he'd be gone would be like he'd leave on like sunday night
and he'd be back on like wednesday sometimes but even that he said he hated being away from home
yeah because he's got a heart of gold that man and um so i have a bit more because i think about
my dad when i see a trucker yeah and so i think i'm trying to i need to it goes both ways diligence
to make this guy's life a little bit easier it goes both ways though there's a lot of truck
drivers that don't pay attention on the road yeah and it's like okay well i get it you're also doing
your job and i wouldn't want anybody getting in the way of my job but it's also is we're all trying to share the space.
Like, yeah, I mean, within reason.
There's no reason to, like, you could easily just speed right past them if that would make their life easier.
If you just got out of the way so then they had a gap to get over
versus if you just slowed way down and they're like,
well, I don't know what this person is trying to do.
Yeah.
But.
Yeah, like I don't get up next to them and then they're like trying to get over
and I'm just like.
You speed up.
You speed up and pull alongside him and you roll down your window.
You're like, hey, I'm going to let you in.
I'm going to let you in, okay?
Make sure to flash me back, please.
And then you slow way down so that he can get in front of you.
And then you're like, you're holding your thumbs up out the window.
There was one lady.
We were driving home.
And it was kind of a road rage incident on my part.
Because.
She was driving like an absolute fucking moron.
It was like.
She was.
People were like.
You know when people all get in line.
To. Pass a. Like. Like, she was, people were, like, you know when people all get in line to pass a, like, a group of trucks?
Yeah. Well, she would get in that line, and then she would fucking rip over to the right, see there's nothing left, rip back to the left, and she was just, like, riding people's asses, like, I can't go any faster.
She went down into the median revved up
her engine so jumped over the gravel part that the cops sit on ramped over that like a fast and
furious movie ramped over top of the semi landed back in the right lane so me being the prick i am
i took out my gun and I shot out her tires.
She was trying to haul ass and I could tell, you know, like, be respectful to other people.
So, I got up next to a semi and I just slowed down.
I went the same exact speed as them.
Just blocked her in.
Yeah, so she couldn't go anywhere.
And then I was like, all right, well, I kind of got it.
I want to get home in a decent manner. So, I sped up again. And then she was,, all right, well, I kind of got it. I want to get home in a decent manner.
So I sped up again.
And then she was, like, trying to haul ass on my right side.
So I sped up, and there was another semi there.
So she couldn't pass me.
And then I slowed down at that semi.
Wow.
And just kept her behind me.
Well, people that drive, like, dipshits need to be fucking humbled.
And now she's on her podcast having this exact same conversation with her friend while drinking beatboxes about that one
asshole driver
because she tries to let in every
she tries to let in every semi
and she plays a game with herself
yeah so
dude this has got me so buzzed
I'm like debating on if I even
want to drink the second one
well I mean you don't have to it's 411 I'm like debating on if I even want to drink the second one.
Well, I mean, you don't have to.
It's 411.
If I do... Oh, my God.
Oh, don't get trashed.
I'm not trashed.
I just...
Give me my second one.
I need to make sure I drink this one at a moderate pace.
Yeah.
You don't have to finish it on this episode.
Within the half hour.
Yes, I do.
Do I need to shake these?
I feel like you need to shake these.
Maybe.
So, okay.
Back to what we were talking about.
Collectively, we need to come up with a sign that is the opposite of a middle finger.
What do you think off the top of your head would be a good just...
Just whipping your dick out.
Besides that, no, no, no, no.
Besides a thumbs up.
A thumbs up is too easy.
Everyone knows that just means, like, good job.
Besides, if someone let you in and you went like this,
they might even construe that as sarcasm.
Like, oh, good job, you let me in.
Yeah, yeah. So... that as sarcasm like oh good job you let me in oh yeah yeah so maybe maybe we don't have to do a hand gesture maybe we just do something like an unspoken thing of it's like if somebody behind
you pays for your food or pays for your coffee have you ever had that happen to you yes that's
never happened to me i did me and bailey Bailey. Actually, it was me and Bailey.
The pay it forward chain?
We were at Scooters.
Yeah.
And the.
Were you getting a cappuccino?
Okay, I'm sorry.
Let's not go there.
I actually did not get to pay it back, though.
Pay it forward?
Yeah.
The people behind us paid for our coffees, and then...
And there was no one behind you?
I think, see, the only thing I think is it has to be something in equivalent value.
Should be.
But how is the person behind you supposed to know that you got your thing paid for you and was going to pay for you?
How were they supposed to know that you got your thing paid for you and was going to pay for you how were they supposed to know what to order no no they they pull so when somebody pays for your order at like their drive-thru they just pull up and while you're driving to the other
window they just tell the person they say hey i'm going to pay for the person's food behind me but
they don't typically i feel like they don't just go well just so you know it's a soccer mom and she got 18
happy meals usually it's just like i'm gonna pay for the person behind me too and they're like okay
that total is gonna be 26 84 i'm saying do it what i'm saying is i was in a gas station with, there was like, it was at a truck stop.
Actually, it was at Aurora.
And there was a fucking entire family getting like 13 things a piece.
I'm like, I'm broke as fuck.
I'm not that generous.
I'm broke as fuck.
And no.
Because I feel like no one's going to be like be like when they say i want to pay for the person
behind me and then they tell them what it's gonna be they're not gonna be like oh never mind
i am not gonna pay for that yeah yeah yeah i think they like can look in a rearview mirror
and see how many people there are so you have to profile the person that's behind you in your rearview mirror
to determine whether or not you want to continue
the pay it forward chain.
Why not?
I mean, sure.
Whatever. But maybe it should be something like that.
Whatever chokes your chicken.
Maybe that person lets you in?
I gotta see what skin color they have.
I didn't specify which.
I'm sorry, guys.
These beat boxes are fucking.
I'm on the blue rise now.
I'm like, I'm getting drunk.
I'm getting drunk.
I mean, let's not sugarcoat it.
I mean, I just got the buzz.
So you're just now getting a buzz.
Did you finish that?
Yeah.
Oh, my God.
What was the other thing I wanted to talk about?
Oh, yeah.
So, back to grass, okay?
Because this is a grass-themed podcast, right?
Okay, yeah. Installed my semi-in-ground slash above-ground irrigation system now in my front yard.
So basically what I did, for all you turf heads out there, how is it?
That's hitting the spot.
That's hitting the spot, is it?
I don't know if it's going to have a good buzz going, so everything tastes good, but...
The pink lemonade actually actually it tastes like it actually tastes like a vodka a lemon flavored vodka but like does it taste like a natterday but
just way stronger no i don't want to drink it dude i don't know how spencer drank five of these
maybe that's why he fucking fell asleep on a fucking glass window in a mcdonald's
drive-thru ergo okay um okay back to the grass baby it might actually be better without filming
because we're just letting loose a little bit we We don't give a fuck what people see.
What people see.
It's our self-conscious of people are going to see us.
My subconscious is thinking nobody's actually listening to me right now because the camera's not there.
The camera almost feels like a person.
Yeah, yeah.
The tripod and the camera feels like there's a person standing there watching us.
But it's only like 14 people.
But right now it feels like this isn't real.
No one's actually listening to this right now.
It's just little lines on a screen.
I kind of like this.
Because we're just letting her fly?
Yeah.
Saying shit we probably shouldn't?
I'm not.
You are.
I didn't say anything.
I didn't say anything.
Keep following you lizard.
Fast forward six months in a court of law it says here at 2026 in
your in your podcast okay so in my backyard i'm not rich guys okay i'm not rich he's loaded
and and i live in a rental house so obviously i'm not gonna like put an in-ground sprinkler system in
so what i did was i obtained some um drip line some seven yes yes some point 700 okay
shut up
i'm just now feeling it.700 Shut up.
I'm just now feeling it.
My ass.
For those turf heads out there,
I obtained some.700 OD Rain Bird
drip line. I'm not going to go into
what that is. If you want to know
that bad, look it up.
Basically, it's a little tube it's a little
tubing can i pull a jake really quick what what do you notice that it says instead of the best buy
it says born on what yeah they say born on born born on zero one mine just says born four seven Born on 0112247170.
Mine doesn't say.
At 223.
Mine doesn't say born on.
Mine just says born.
Born.
Like Jason born.
Mine says born.
Sorry.
Right.
My bad.
Sorry.
So I obtained some 700 OD, which means means outside diameter so it's 0.700 i'm explaining it
when i said i wouldn't um basically it's like tubing for the water to go through and i ran it
around like the outsides of my backyard like along the fence and stuff and then just ran it right up to my hose bigot and then only the only places where
i like actually dug was i buried the sprinkler heads themselves so the piping quote unquote
is exposed and the sprinklers are buried so that they're in the ground and will pop up and water when there's water going through.
So I did this in my backyard last year.
And I just now did it in my front yard this year.
So this was all leading up to this funny moment that happened.
Your backyard got torched.
What?
No, man.
Go ahead.
I don't want to ruin if this is where you're going.
I don't want to ruin if this is where you're going i don't want to ruin well i always have these long convoluted setups that lead to a punchline that's not even that crazy
of a punchline but here's the punchline so i when i started working on my front yard
um i mean it is kind of funny so i had takener. Yeah. I had taken this little auger that's about two foot long.
And I was using it to bore a hole underneath my sidewalk in order to run the tubing underneath my sidewalk.
Well, not actually my sidewalk.
The sidewalk leading up to my front door from the driveway.
Like the walk so
it's like your approach to your house sure i think that's what it'd be called i don't we might have
to ask spencer but i don't i think it would just be called like the path a path the door path which
is a walking path aka a sidewalk um so i had like fully bored this hole i'm running tube underneath um there's a giant
hole in the corner because i had to dig i basically was like i know that i'm gonna have to dig
the length of what the the the auger plus the drill and the spool right well no no you're oh
yeah sorry you ran the spool so the auger plus the
drill whatever length that is i know i have to dig that much of a gap so that i can put it down
in the hole to then auger over yeah so i've got that dug i'm fucking like augering it's jamming
up and i'm having to clear it out and i'm getting all this and then steve
my next door neighbor comes over and goes hey what are you doing and i'm just like well
i'm thinking about putting in my you know because he knows about my backyard situation i was like
i'm thinking about putting in my front yard this year and he just looks down he's like well it
looks like you're doing a little bit more than thinking about it, but it looks good.
And at that moment, I'm just like, yeah, I think I'm probably doing a little more than thinking about it.
I don't know why I said that.
I'm boring a hole underneath my sidewalk to run pipe through.
I mean, is that a Midwest thing?
What?
That might be like a midwest thing now you'd say that because it's like i've definitely caught myself doing something like that like a member at the golf course comes up to me and like
you know accidentally saying something wrong it's i feel like it's like an over generous of like
yeah i'm trying to do it but it's hard work work, so I'm really trying. As you're, like, doing it. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So you try to stay, like, or maybe that's just us.
We try to stay, like, yeah, no, we're fucking doing this shit, man.
Do you want me to tell you something really embarrassing?
Yeah.
I feel like I'm drunk enough now I can say it.
Okay, go.
I wrote, like, half of a country song in my head.
It's called Welcome to the midwest it sounds so dumb and corny in my head can we wait can you write this down on paper and can You singing it to YouTube. Please.
Please.
Basically, I will fucking do anything to hear this on an entire song.
Oh, my God.
So, oh, my God. I can't believe I'm getting ready to do this.
Are you going to sing right now?
I have a good line.
I'll tell you the line that was making me think about it.
How good?
You're definitely more than a little buzzed.
You fuckhead.
How good?
Okay.
Listen.
I'm quoting Step Brothers.
Okay.
Okay.
Okay.
Thank you.
How good?
How good?
I've been called the songbird of my generation by people that have heard me sing.
That good.
So. I don't know.
I don't know if I can bring myself to sing it.
I don't even know if I'm blackout drunk if I'd bring myself to sing it.
I don't know.
Let me just tell you the basic concept.
Okay.
Basically, I want to make a song that's about like the stereotypes of the people of the Midwest.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I think it'd be a slapper.
Oh, yeah. It might be up on TikTok. stereotypes of the people of the midwest yeah yeah yeah i think it'd be a slapper oh yeah it
might be on tiktok when i was thinking about it was when i was mowing my lawn right as you do
because you want to know why i was mowing my lawn because it was getting ready to rain that night
right so i came up with a line in my head because I was like, I could totally see this being like, this is such a, I was thinking to myself, this is such a way out.
I'm going to become an artist.
No, no, no.
That's not what I was thinking.
I was thinking about this is such a Midwesterner thing to do because there's other people out mowing their lawns.
My, my dad always does it like it's getting ready to rain.
So let's mow before it rains.
You know, like i've seen people
out mowing their lawns right before the rain's about to hit yeah and i could just hear a country
line in my head going we mow our lawns when there's rain in the forecast like something like
that you know what i mean yeah yeah yeah yeah that wasn't terrible yeah yeah yeah but you gotta make
another line you gotta find a way to like like, match that shit and, like...
Well, do I have to sing like Josh Turner, or can I just have my own voice?
Well, yeah.
Yeah, true.
Maybe open the shed and bring the mower.
Let me do a cover of Josh Turner, but just a dad mowing his lawn.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
That'd be fucking great.
What if I just made...
What if I became a country singer, but all I did was covers of like famous country songs.
But then I just did like lyrics that were just like basic Midwestern dad.
That'd be cool.
I'd support the shit out of you.
Well, yeah, of course you would.
You're my friend.
Baby, close the door and pull the lawn chairs out.
Yeah.
Right.
I'm trying to think of something that you could be like, we're about to watch a storm because that's the most Midwest thing I've ever heard.
And I was thinking about, I was thinking about.
We're on to something here.
We are?
You are.
Or am I?
You are.
Okay, okay.
You are, but I'm along for the ride.
You can be my agent.
Yeah, yeah.
I'm along for the ride.
When I become a country star.
Yeah, yeah.
We're definitely going to get you a guitar.
I was thinking about like fire pits.
Red necks.
Drinking and laughing with your friends.
Red necks.
I was like thinking about making a line about like when the Huskers lose or something.
But then I was like, I can't just do purely Nebraska.
It's Midwest.
So I can't be like when our college team loses because like people in the Midwest, they like their college football.
Yeah, yeah.
I mean, I feel like everybody everywhere likes their college football.
But I think the people in the Midwest, it's like a rivalry, like an unspoken rivalry.
People from Minnesota, we don't like Minnesota. People from Minnesota, we don't like Minnesota.
People from Iowa, we don't like Iowa.
Iowa from Nebraska doesn't like Nebraska.
Well, that's like the Big Ten.
Yeah, yeah.
But there's teams from the Big Ten that aren't in the Midwest.
Well, yeah.
Like Rutgers and Ohio State and Michigan State.
Ohio.
Michigan State's kind of in the Midwest.
Ohio is Midwest.
Is it?
It might be like the last state in the midwest
but okay so anyways hey you got your laptop there look it up um here i'll just look it up on my
phone what was the other line i i was i was struggling with how to incorporate how we say
ope i'm not sure how i would work that into the lyrics oh because you know how like when
you run into someone in the doorway and you're like oh yeah did you not even realize that you
do that no well you do yeah because you're from the midwest yeah i know we all say oh now that
you say that i realize that yeah everyone in the midwest says ope um wag and it might be a little bit more of a dad thing,
but the other thing people say when they're in the doorway is,
I'm just going to squeeze right past you.
That's the other thing.
Yeah, let me squeeze past you real quick.
Let me squeeze past you real quick.
So the song is going to be called Welcome to the Midwest.
Ooh, you know what?
Ian, Workman Ian, he can play the guitar.
Yeah.
Okay.
We got to get with him and cook something up.
I got the Midwest.
I got the Midwest.
It is North Dakota, South Dakota.
Talk into your mic.
Montana, Wisconsin, Michigan, Ohio, Illinois, Indiana, Missouri, Iowa, Kansas, Nebraska.
So probably the only team of Rutgers.
So Wyoming, Montana, and Colorado, and New Mexico, that's the start of the West.
The North is like New York and what's PA?
Pennsylvania?
Yep.
Pennsylvania.
And then you have your Southern Hillbillies.
That's West Virginia, Kentucky, Tennessee, Arkansas.
Do I need to make a timestamp?
I'm just kidding.
That's like right across there.
So, yeah.
The South.
Yep.
That's considered the South.
So Rutgers is not in the Midwest.
Yeah.
So I think every other team.
And Maryland.
And Maryland.
Yep.
But I think every other team.
Well, I don't know this year because we're getting USC.
Well, Purdue isn't.
I always forget where Purdue is.
I think Purdue's in, like, Indiana.
I don't know.
Don't quote me on that.
Look it up.
Keep talking.
I'm listening.
We're getting close to wrapping it up here because I need to go throw up.
I'm just kidding.
I am pretty buzzed, though.
I'm trying to think of some of the other lines I was thinking about.
Who ended up winning the NCAAcaa dude i don't
even know probably no it wasn't georgia uh it was michigan it was michigan remember because we're
pissed about it oh yeah death taxes michigan death taxes, and Michigan running the ball down my fucking face.
The only three things that are inevitable in life.
No, basketball.
Oh, Villanova.
Villanova?
I'm...
Yukon. Yukon.
Oh, okay.
It's in Indiana.
I told you.
So it's technically in the Midwest.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I'm looking at my notes because I set reminders for myself.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Okay.
So briefly, we got to go back to what I was talking about what's the opposite of the middle finger.
Because I also put in my notes, is there anything worse than the middle finger?
Oh, yeah.
And I just put gun, question mark.
Just straight up pointing a gun at someone.
I'm going to.
What's worse than saying, fuck you?
I'm going to kill you is probably the only thing worse.
I think if you hit somebody with that two hands...
Suck it?
Yeah.
No!
I feel like that's like a...
Yeah.
Suck it is almost an invitation.
True.
Plus, when you're in your car, they're not going to be able to see you doing that.
They're going to be like, did that guy drop something in his lap okay i actually actually you speaking of this has me on
something because the other day there was a guy or female or i don't i don't know a person yes a a stoplight with their they had their gas cap and their their gas cap like cover was open and
their gas cap was out and i'm like so much me right now wants to get out of my truck and just
run up to their car and just screw it in and shut it yeah but i'm like but we also live in the
midwest you know like somebody sees somebody running up to their car.
You don't know what's.
They might be packing.
Yeah, exactly.
Might be like this person about to rob me.
I need to gun them down ASAP.
Or yeah, like or freak them out, you know.
So I don't know.
For the most part, people in the Midwest are very friendly.
Yeah, but I think we also have like a
really fuck around find out like right and that was how i was going to try to incorporate it in
my lyrics for my country song we don't take shit from no one but say ope when the door swings open
that was a line i have in my head i'm still working it out i'm still working out the down
on paper i'm still working out the kings. I'm still working out the kings.
What, you think that actually sounds okay?
Yeah, have this down on paper. I actually want to hear
the whole thing. I don't have...
Okay, okay, well then start producing
a whole thing. Do you want to hear the chorus?
No, I'm not.
I thought you were about to...
I'm not going to be...
I thought you were about ready to blow this whole thing
fucking wide open and just start singing on the vibe.
I mean, I have a chorus in mind, but I don't know if I'm ever going to be able to upload this video.
Fuck it. Sing it. Who cares?
No, I do.
Fuck them.
They all want to hear Big Jake sing.
No one wants to hear they want to hear big jake sing no one wants to hear big jake if you want to
hear me sing come to the beer olympics in gothamburg where we do karaoke or go to the
upside bar right here there's lots of karaoke um or yeah oh my god that's gonna be so great
beer olympics i might sing it for you after the pod.
I don't know.
I haven't even told Lena about this.
She probably thinks it's the stupidest thing ever.
She probably thinks it's the stupidest thing ever.
I'm kind of brick just knowing that you want to sing to me.
Hey, yo.
Come here.
We might have to cut this thing before an hour gets here we might we might fall over out
of these chairs and i don't even be able to talk into these mics anymore okay do you rate beatbox
is worse dude this fucking chair is gonna be the death of me i need to stop scuffle okay but okay
so we were thinking about this a four loco is 14 and 24 ounces this is are stronger. This is 30.
No, these are 11%, but it's 32 ounces.
So I don't know how the math equates.
Well, we're both drinking, well, 17, 42 ounces. Yes, but it's 11%.
No, I'm sorry.
34, 34.
Yes, but it's 11% per container.
Yeah.
Versus a four local.
It's 11% over 34 ounces.
Just the same as it's.
No, it's 11% of.
Are we going to have this debate right now?
Yes, it's 11% of 16.9 fluid ounces.
If you took these two things and combined them.
Yes.
It would still be 11%.
11% of that container, but it's now a container of 34
it's still more alcohol but it's spread out over 34 ounces yeah yeah yeah yeah okay i'm just glad
we didn't have to have that debate yeah because i would have won um but i'm not sure how the math equates. 11.1% over 34 ounces versus 14% over 24 ounces.
I think this might be more.
It's 10 more ounces.
I got to piss.
I got to piss.
I got to piss hard.
Go take a piss.
I'll keep him distracted.
We got six more minutes.
We're good.
Oh, okay.
This depends. adult diaper is full
i don't know how much more i can fit in it jake has been drinking a lot of water and this big
motherfucker i have never seen go piss more times than today we were sitting there waiting camel
vibe on we were storing that shit we were sitting there waiting for golf, and I go, where'd Jake go?
Like three times today, I go, where'd Jake go?
And I see him walking back from the bathroom.
I'm like, Jesus Christ, guy.
Well, so I'm making it my goal to have at least one or more of those hydro jugs, which are 72 ounces.
So in order to get a gallon, I'd probably have to drink one full one
and then at least a half because a gallon is 128.
So 72 divided by two would be a number.
It's a lot of water, and it's honestly making me feel pretty good.
Yeah, water's good for you.
Don't you just hate people that just don't drink water and drink, like, two liters of pop every day at work?
Breaking news.
Water, good for you.
The world wants to know more.
Oh, yeah.
A local Midwestern man has made it his goal To drink a lot of water
And newsflash
It's making him
His body feel good
It's almost as if
Our bodies are made of water
And
Like it when there's
Lots of water available
No
Beer's water
Um
Has water in it
So would you call
Beer water
It's a coffee
A cappuccino
Just kidding You in it so would you call it beer or water it's a coffee a cappuccino just kidding you
see you always get me riled up when i'm feeling good so do i or do you rile yourself up no i don't
rile myself up uh i'm i'm actually i think we have some listeners that would beg to differ. I'm working on not trying to be a riled up person and getting easily riled up.
It's tough.
And I know I don't help because I know how to push your buttons and I like seeing you.
But I stop.
It's more different, though, when your friends push your buttons because, like you said, they know exactly.
They know every pinhole.
Like, what was it today while we were doing bunkers?
I said something that just pissed you off and made you drop the rake.
I was being more of a smartass.
You actually didn't piss me off there.
Well, but if I would have kept pushing it and pushing it, it would have pissed you off.
I don't know.
Or like when you're like, are you going to help me change the putting rings since you didn't yesterday?
I'm like, fuck you, motherfucker. I had to change all of the cups by myself, you asshole. And you had like are you gonna help me change the putting rings since you didn't yesterday i'm like fuck you motherfucker i had to change all the cups by myself you asshole and you had two of you
and i knew i would get that exact reaction and i would laugh and then we'd be done with it
because that's what i was after and you deliver you deliver every time you're such a great friend
i think i'm just gonna start everything you say just be like sure unless you asked to blow my back if you did do that hey you want to go have sex
no your mom listens to this i don't know if she listens this deep this far
so okay um
yeah that would that would probably shut it down really quick if i tried to fucking with you and
you just didn't react i'm just like within two times of doing that i'd probably be like well i
don't well first of all i'd be like there's something wrong with him but then i would be
like well this isn't fun he's just numb now so you're just like dude are you gonna fuck i'm like
yeah of course jake i'll get right on that holy hannah or i would just take
full advantage of you and be like he's just gonna do everything i ask him to so i'm gonna ask him
that well um come here um so as you know he's to walk in that door and I'm going to be like, hey.
So, Jake has this friend, Trace, that is... He listens to this.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
But he hasn't been on the pod.
And, Trace, if you're listening to this, and I hope you are listening to this...
I'm going to tell him now to listen to this episode.
Episode 38.
I'm giving you a plug, Trace.
Jake wanted to have you on the pod while I was in my downtime.
I told him.
During our transition.
Let's call it the transition.
Yeah, our transition.
But I told Jake that I don't want him to have you on.
No hard feelings, bro.
But I really want to be in on this episode.
He really wants you, Trace. Out of. He really wants you trace out of love.
All of you brotherly.
We'll go audio only for that one.
Cause it might get kind of greasy.
It's just,
it might get kind of greasy.
So,
you know what I was thinking about was every time we don't have a theme for an
episode,
I'm always, there's a little bit where I'm just like, we're going to have so much dead air.
We're going to be doing a lot of ums and uhs.
And I don't we're not going to know what to talk about.
But then I'm like, every time we don't have a theme to an episode, we always just find our way and we figure out a way to fill an hour without shutting our big fucking pie holes.
Yeah.
And we just fill that hour with just pure conversation.
We should.
So I was like, I'm honestly excited to see what happens today because I don't have anything that I particularly want to talk about.
It's like what you were talking about at work.
But I know it'll happen.
Like your job.
Like this job excites you because you don't know what you're going to be doing.
It doesn't necessarily
excite me but it gives you like an urge to be like there's a oh am i going to get a treat or
i'm going to get absolutely shafted there's a blissful ignorance you know ignorance is bliss
yes yes yes there's a blissful ignorance that comes with the fact of i might get to do something fun today yeah versus i'm gonna get absolutely
it's raw dog it's the i might get to do something fun that far outweighs the if i knew ahead of time
that i was gonna do something shitty it's gonna make me not want to come in it's gonna make me
dread coming in but since i have no idea if there's some excitement it's like a dice roll
it's like opening up a mystery back mystery box yeah um it could be i was gonna do a just that
just gave me the idea of a weird plug because we're trying to get more interaction with you
guys and you know you guys just need to dm us or leave a comment or something. But I was going to say. Follow me on Snapchat.
I was going to say that if you work on a golf course, what is your one job that you get that you just feel like you just got absolutely fucked?
Like you just absolutely hate.
But I'm going to steer clear of just a golf course.
If you work on a golf course, fine.
DM us that.
If you have anybody else that's working a job, that one job that you just.
If you work at a place where there's a variety of jobs that you could do, probably blue collar.
Yes.
Probably leaning towards blue collar.
We're not going to leave it short. I mean. I i mean i mean there might be some like desk jobs or but yeah or whatever that um
so you're doing spreadsheets or you're organizing files or also another thing of to leave a dm
comment whatever you want to do on our instagram youtube what we can see comments on you figured
out how to see comments on apple podcast and spotify right
the only way that you can leave a quote-unquote comment is if you leave a review oh if you review
if you leave a review on the podcast on the podcast app on your iphone yeah like apple
podcast or whatever it is then you can like write something so ben was just like did you read my comment i left and i'm just
like what i'm like you can leave a comment on that he's like yeah and it was just a review
he like left a five-star review and it just said good good good great great great great good good
great great great great like he he met the character max just saying the words words
great and good over and over again i'm just just like, oh, yes, I saw it.
Oh.
Anyways.
But anyways, if you guys have that one job, because I'm actually interested.
It goes into a lot of me.
I've been in turf my entire, I would say, my career.
Ever since I've had a job i've been in this i am currently
leaving that for my new job so i'll come back into turf yeah yeah eventually maybe eventually i i'm
kind of staying in it not really but i'm helping uh but i'm interested to see what all of you guys
say because i know like to me changing cups isn't so bad when you do it, you know, once a week.
But it gets really tedious when you're doing it three, four times a week.
Right.
And then it's just like you come in and you're like, oh, I just got fucking fist fucked because I have to change cups again.
And you're just pissed off. Well, because I found it kind of interesting because, like, there's some people that I learned.
I'm not going to name names because some people don't like sitting on a mower all day.
Whereas for me, that seems like the best job.
But some people are like, it's so boring that I hate it.
Yeah, but.
So it makes me wonder, like, I mean mean it's really curious to see what like spencer
he loves scooping plugs yeah um most people would hate that i mean i'm gonna give you my
honest honest opinion on the golf course if they're like cam i'm gonna have you sit on a
mower today it's like yeah it's great for the first three hours and then i'm like i'd love it
that's why i like sitting on the vertigrain so much i but if i had to do it for an entire summer i'd probably get bored of it
yeah but i mean i'm sitting there like they had me mow like green banks one day and i'm like yeah
it was great it was so much fun but it was for two hours but if i get a perfect amount of time if i get like pushing
that like five hour mark or like it's like i'm ready to do something else right but it's i think
but it's also because i sit on my mower and i think about man i could be working on irrigation
making this course better doing something to make this course better and i mean mowing yeah
it makes it better but you're not doing anything to improve the course really there is a satisfaction
element of doing a higher up job even if it's see but shittier yeah but i think with you guys you
guys might listen to this podcast be like man i'd never seen it that way if you work our job or whatever job you do but
i see a lot of it is sometimes i'm like yes i get a motis day it's just a brainless job
because i need a brainless job today yeah but i get to hole six and the entire time while i'm mowing
out to six i'm thinking of my podcast is done now what could we what could we do to improve
where i work hand watering the first time you're starting to look at a bigger picture idea like a
the first time i hand watered this year when it was like really cold out i was like i was sitting
there i'm like yeah this fucking sucks it's fucking freezing cold out i was like i was sitting there i'm like yeah this
fucking sucks it's fucking freezing cold out and then i got into like this space this is kind of
like this is honestly like kind of a what that mean for jake but it's kind of like me saying
what that means for me um but i'm doing in you know what, like what I mean by a brainless job.
It just something that you've done time and time and time again, put it into actual words.
Uh, monotonous.
Yes.
It's just something, but I mean, a brainless job to me is like, not just a monotonous job,
but like something that you don't do every day but something that i've done so
much it's like okay at this point it's just it's just like i know what i need to do i'll i'll do it
but not as much excitement yeah like i was just hand watering and i'm like man we should really go out we should take our green split them into quadrants take the the probe split our our six quadrants into their own quadrants
like on four you're thinking about it more logistically as how can i make this more
productive yes and i'm like and actually, take our moisture meter out, split our six quadrants into four quadrants.
So four quadrants per six quadrants, and take three samples of each quadrant in every single one of those four quadrants.
And that equally and evenly splits up your greens.
So you know that.
And I'm like...
So you know where you need yeah and then at that moment
i'm like i'm hand watering i'm like okay this is actually really important but i just wish that i
could have just went and grabbed my piece of paper grabbed the moisture meter and just started doing
it these are great steps in the direction of becoming like a golf court superintendent
yeah like you're thinking the right way that's what i'm saying is like that shit like i'll sit on a green a team mower and i see our green and our teas i'm
like man what could i do right now that would make improve the course okay well i'm just it's
something when i'm just maintaining the course i don't care what anybody says if you're just mowing
a golf course you're maintaining the course. It's maintenance.
The course will stay the same.
The improvement is what you do to the grass and to your soils.
Yes, the soil.
And what you do in that process to improve how your golf course looks, how your golf course plays, anything like that.
Because the grass, what people quote unquote call grass is the leaf
and of the actual grass plant yes and so then the thing that irritates the shit out of me and this
might just be me a also leave a comment dm whatever if this is you. But I like eventually brainwash myself.
Because I'm sitting there like, we need to do this.
We need to do that.
You know, I could do this.
We're slacking.
I could do this today.
We're slacking.
So you love maximizing efficiency.
Yes.
I think my ADHD plays a part in that.
Because everything we do, it's like, okay, let's fucking get this done.
But let's do it the most efficient way we can.
Yes, because my brain runs 1,000 miles an hour.
It's like, okay, well, here in 45 minutes, an hour,
I'm going to have something else that I want something done.
Like why would we run into this dead end on purpose?
Yes.
So if I send out one guy to do whatever and say he's doing whatever for four hours versus if i would have
sent out three guys to do such and such we would have been done in an hour and 30 minutes
right okay well now i got fucking those two and a half three hour three and a half hours
of that one guy would have wasted doing that.
Now I have three different guys that say, and I come up with a job that three other people can
come go do split up, go do, or say, I need a job that I have three people that can be put on that
job to get that done, that job done efficiently. Now I can branch them off if they, you know,
it's all a thing of
it pisses me off
because I get to 6
mowing teas
doing anything that's a monotonous job
and then
after like 6
I'm like all through that
I'm like man I'm never
so the first 3 holes I'm like man this fucking sucks
I hate doing this job I fucking hate it
and then I get through like six and then, but through those other three,
I'm just sitting there thinking of, oh yeah, this job is kind of important, but how can I maximize
what I am doing in the process of, I am doing it. And I'll get to that hole and I'm like,
holy shit. Like, especially at the golf course i'm like holy shit and i get like
all these big ambitions big ideas of something that could be easily done and so i start hauling
ass doing my job and i get it done like super efficiently and then i come back and they're like
yeah we're not gonna we're completely changing gears and yeah and i'm like
but that's what i mean by like brain like not brainwash myself but
like i get in your own head i get my brain over like yeah i could actually do something that's
like bigger than what we are doing and then it just gets if you didn't think these beat boxes contained alcohol, then you are sorely mistaken because it for one got us actually talking about
grass and two,
you know,
the alcohol is hitting when cam starts to ramble.
