You know what? I'm going to try the J. Thomas method. No headphones? No headphones. Why? Last week, we filmed this TV show for our buddy J. Thomas. He's our local radio friend. He's actually been a ride or die with us for a long time, long time.

But anyway, he does this show called Rides, and he hit us up and was like, hey, I want to come to your guys' shop, show your shops, show all your cars, and do everything like that for my show. And, you know, he's always had our back, and we were excited for the opportunity to do something with him so we're like of course well then afterwards we were sitting there talking like hey how long you've been in radio for he was like 40 years we're like no kidding and so he was just you know giving us advice on on how to keep a conversation going or come to a something like a podcast with like certain topics and then how to go deeper into them but he was like yeah and if if you're wearing headphones uh i would just take those off it feels a lot more natural

Really? So he thought more natural without the headphones. Yeah. Dude, he can talk to himself. It's actually so easy. Like, we did a tour of all of our cars. And he goes in tours like crazy, crazy garages where it's like the random dude with a big barn that's like outside in the country. And then you walk in there and it's got every piece of memorabilia and every car is pristine with like two miles on it. So we aren't really as like normal clientele.

But he was able to literally like talk to himself and just keep it going. It's pretty impressive. Imagine doing a three hour show by yourself. like three times a week oh like that's crazy you know what i thought was uh the most i said i shouldn't say interesting but the most funny part was when uh we had to do the show three times we had to film it three times oh my god because the first time i didn't have a mic and they're like go in there and then they're like oh we should really have a mic on cj let's redo it we did it again the second time and it was like okay we knocked out of the park there 30 minutes later guy just goes oh it wasn't

recording. He's literally his only job was he was sitting there with headphones on holding a mic recording box. He didn't hit record the whole show. The whole damn show. That was fucking funny. And then we're like, okay. So we had to redo it. So I have to make a purchase.

Ryan's buying another rights to another song. What song do you think it is? Comment down below. Can you imagine if that's what it was? He's like, I just got the, you know, 1.1% rights to toxic by Britney Spears. I think it's a good investment? I don't know. That might be.

That might be. I don't know about that song. That song is not... Well, that was maybe a bad example, but so many people, yo, running up chill bill for you, Rye.

So many nice people for that one. It's pretty nice. I heard Ryan on the phone a little bit earlier. I don't want to... I don't want to out what he's buying. I was in the bathroom and he was out on the phone with like this lady.

It sounded like, and I came out and listened to their conversation for like five minutes and I was like, what are you buying? Maybe another hummer. Well, that's what it sounded like

when he was like, well, how shitty is the pain? Can you see the Bondo? That's what he said? That's like how it was going. Dude, I would... I was like, this dude just never learns.

I mean, there's a lot of things that could happen that would make all of us laugh. But like, yeah, if Ryan pulled up us unknowing with a new Hummer, we'd be like... And it was yellow? Oh, man, that'd be great. Like the same year, Homer? Yeah, yeah, yeah.

I mean, just the old school Hummer. Because they do exist out there, like, still Cherry. And the worst part is there way more than 10 grand, which is kind of a crime. I think Hummer, the Hummer joke is just not fair anymore. You know, it's, it's proven itself time and time over again. I can't sit here and rag on it too hard. It's damn near God.

I mean, like, let's compare it just as much fame as like the Lambo. Probably more. More, more, way more. It's probably produced more hits and views. I would say, yeah, hits. For sure, probably 10 times over. Well, I wouldn't quite go that. Like, it's memorable, you know.

Oh, like, you know, it's actually cool. I mean, let's be real. Like, Ben's Lambo is very memorable. Everyone's snap picks at all the time. It's just like a stock Lambo as far as the internet goes. Well, yeah. You know? Oh, yeah, within the group.

Like, every YouTuber has a Lambo. CJ, you got a wide body that bitch. And like, I don't know. Dude, people have done that too. It's not even cool. It's not even doing anything. Nothing. The duly Ford Ranger?

That's cool. That right there. That's classic piece. Yeah. Which that pulled the boat today amazingly. I would like to say I was surprised, but I would It would have been surprised if it wouldn't have. Yeah, I had so much faith in it.

As soon as we dropped it down, I saw the way it was sitting, I was like, oh, this is going to be perfect. And I was honestly, it was very sturdy. And it felt secure. And normally the last stunts that we did with it, you know, whenever we hooked the goose neck up to it, it sits on its bump stops. And it wasn't. No.

And so, like, I don't know. That boat was light work for it. My favorite part was when we were at the axis and the old guy, you know, he's sitting there on his fishing boat waiting to load up. And he's like, well, what's that thing got for a motor? And we're just, we're so excited about the Ranger that we're like, oh, just a six-cylinder. Isn't it crazy? Yeah, he was talking about the boat.

And then we're just going on and on. Just the stock 99 Ford Ranger V6. And then he goes, it's the best, isn't it? I was talking about the boat. I don't know. We just get so fired up over that thing. It just outshines everything in our eyes. When people are driving by looking, we're like, Ford Ranger, 99.

Only thing done to it is spacers. I think we got to put a. different motor in it. Yeah, I agree. I think we need a diesel swap it. Like, imagine if that thing had a Cummins in it or a power stroke or a Dermax. I think a Dermax would probably be a biggest hit. Really?

Yeah, I genuinely don't know, but I'm down for anything, diesel. Dermax swap Ford Ranger. Big wrench is down. Really? Yeah, I think we should Dermax it. So, okay, so we talked about bringing on big wrench. He's our mechanic, our fabricator guy. Like, what he's managed to build in.

the last 30 days should not be possible in 30 days and we just keep throwing projects at them and it's funny though because like some of them for instance the ummer pontoon it was a tuesday and we asked big wrench if we could have it done by wednesday night just weld it and welded and it was it was more of more of a question of how long do you think it would take do you think it could be done in two days but apparently he brought that one to evan and said, you're not going to believe what these idiots thought I could do it two days. And Evan's like rolling his eyes. Like, I tried telling him to be more realistic.

But he did, to be fair, he got it done in three days. Yeah. Yeah. Which was amazing. You can't be realistic, though, when you want to make shit happen. Sorry to cut you off, Mike. No, that's, I was just saying, it's funny that he was consulting Evan about it. Because Evan is pretty easygoing.

And he stands up for some things he believes in. And some things he believes in that we do is just unruly. Realistic deadlines and unrealistic pushing to make things happen. I mean, to be fair, though, everything is unrealistic and nothing makes sense. And if you sit there and think about it too long, you're going to talk yourself out of it

because it's such a stupid idea. You might as well just... Yeah, you're just wasting time. You better get started. Quit thinking about it and just do it. So then we're just constantly... I mean, Big Ranch has... He's done so well.

Obviously, we knew he was going to do well. He fits in the crew so well, too. He's not... doesn't need the camera at all but he really like he's quite a bit older than us but he really enjoys being a part of the finished product which is so fun i think he i think he's enjoying working here i mean i guess i can't speak for him but it seems like he's like he's chilling dude like he's having a good time he shows up every day and he seems pretty like he's obviously in a good mood and i think he's having fun i'm sure it's a big change from being like a race you know because it's probably

very serious you're like okay what do we got to do here back spec we're just like yeah what do you I think I put the toilet on the shifter card. You think we could do that? And he's like, okay, yeah. It's free reign, partially because he really does have more skill and experience in us. And partially because it's like, well, we'd be doing the same thing, just huck and pray. I think we could do a lot of these things. I just don't think we'd be able to make them happen as fast.

Right. Because we would have to spend way more time looking at it, figuring out, and then also consulting with other people. We'd have to, like, outsource fabricating. and like, you know, stuff like that. Well, which is what we've done for the last six years. Yeah, exactly. But now it's like we just have him here and he's just like, he's so quick because he's got,

I don't know, 40 years of experience of just fixing stuff and fabricating stuff and welding and whatever. And so like he just can crank them out. Dude, I pitched him on this new toilet idea that I had. Yeah. He legit looks at me, laughs and goes, Let's maybe wait at least a month between toilet builds. He's got his family at home that he needs to explain what he did at work each day. Another toilet.

What'd you build at work today? Another toilet. They're like sitting around. Another toilet. I know. I tried telling them. Try telling them it needs some time. Have me put nitrous on it this time.

You guys remember back in the day when somebody would drive like their mom's car and the whole crew would be in it? it and you'd be ripping it and you'd be like damn this thing's actually fast who would have known that accords were actually fast and it always changed like i had this perception that like certain cars were fast when they actually weren't and it was like every time jake our friend jake would drive like his mom's car or like one of his dad's workers cars or something like that and he would just rip this shit out of it we thought that it was fast but it really wasn't he would just drive it that fast so now every time i see like accords i'm like that thing's actually got some get up and go to it kind of do that was the same thing with with my friend shan he had a focus just a

normal forward focus but he'd drive it super fast and i thought that thing was like fast i remember telling my dad like i want a forward focus i never necessarily like using jake's example like he drove the outbacks as fast as he could i never thought those were fast but then he had his red Grand Cherokee, just like mine, but it was a V8. And he could drive that like I was getting in a trophy truck with someone. I'm like, you don't have to 100% throttle everywhere you go. I wrote the Ford Edge. Remember the Ford Edge days?

What was your guys' favorite vehicle you think you won't? My Ford Raptor. You do love your Raptor, man. Probably my Subaru. Which one? Oh, the yellow one. Not the Impraza? I'd never had.

Or whatever the heck. the legacy no love that because like that was back in the day when it was like all I had love that but no I mean it has nothing to compare to the yellow bug probably my Corvette yeah it was a good rig that was a great rig looked amazing for the for the time it was like nothing like it had never experienced anything like it especially for the whole crew too that was like kind of like the first really cool car in the group yeah I feel like I've owned a Corvette now because you have that is the nice part actually we all kind of get to experience everything Yeah, I can tell people that my friend owns a Lamborghini, you know. I never had to buy it. That is nice. Yeah, nice for me. I got a surprise for you guys. Oh?

Just kidding. You already know what it is. But I have a surprise for everyone else listening because I'm sure you guys have heard us talk about this. In two years. We finally got our one million subscriber play button. We did it, boys. Woo! We're sick of beauty.

My favorite part is that all of us at one point at least, have called it yeah we got our two million play button that's not a thing because it came you know after two million yeah it's it's pretty sick and um i don't know why we finally got it now like i don't know what happened that they were like cool now it's good to go yeah but we got it so you had to like reapply for it yeah i basically went through because the first time we applied they said that we had unoriginal content right it was some kind of air yeah i think the reason that they said that is because, like, sometimes when we use copywritten music, we'll, like, upload a bit of that, whatever we had edited to that song

and then just upload it and see if it gets copyrighted or not. And we had, like, two songs uploaded, and they were both copywritten, so we weren't going to use them. And that was, like, the last two songs, I think, on the channel. Did they not do any, like, anything else? They were just like, yeah, these guys got a million subscribers by uploading copywritten songs. like what did matilda help you get that no i literally just locked in and uh it was like apply

and then i did and then it like shot me back a code and i put the code in and i put in the shipping information it just like work can you order more of those can you or do you just get like yeah you can you have to pay for them but then so we get a little uh just little i don't know piece of paper that says if you and your team want more email this email that's it that's all it says I'm going to. I have it in my room. I am also going to. Maybe we should just all get.

Dude, I want one. No, I just have Ryan to it and he can get us all one. And then I'll order for all of us. But I'm saying, yeah, like, do you guys want? I'd say one for each of us. Big Wrench needs one in his house, in his kitchen. Big wrench has been a YouTuber for one month. He's already got a million play button.

It's on his fridge. Like with his kids artwork. He's like, guys, I really, I don't want this. He's like, is this cool? We're like, yeah. I was listening to Theo Vaughan. full send podcast and they were talking about teachers and stuff you guys ever have a hot teacher oh that were hot uh yeah yeah yeah for sure well i think everyone has a hot teacher that you think

is hot in the time and then you like look back at the yearbook and you're like oh man she was hot because she was like a female a female that was a teacher you know compared to the other teachers and you like sat there and looked at her each day you know what i'm saying yeah there was always like hot i don't know if i actually even had a hot teacher but there was always like hot teachers in the in the uh they were hot relative to like well in the grade and then you were lucky if you got to be in like their class oh like one of those things so it was like only like a like a mystery like oh man i wonder what it's like to be in her class but yeah i agree that that is a scenario but i did have one that was just just plain hot really yeah i feel like there's no

no two ways around it well great she still is uh she was a choir teacher oh okay that makes sense was she cool yeah she was super cool i think that's the worst part the only way to truck through all the comments especially when you're a hot high school teacher i mean i'm not gonna lie i think it would suck i'm not saying i you know you'd prefer to be an ugly high school teacher then i think yeah i think it would be uh you can still be cool and ugly but if you're cool and hot you're you're you're just getting bombarded by i mean high school boys i guess or maybe vice versa dude you got to know that i think like if you're good looking and you're you You're going to be a teacher.

Like, you got to know that's coming. That's true. I agree. You know, it's almost what? It's funny. You got to know that high school boys are going to be hitting on. I mean,

what do you expect? Like, because I'm just saying, like, it happened. And it happened so much. And most of it's, like,

99% of it is all behind, like, closed doors. You know, no one would ever hear. Behind closed doors? Uh, the speaking.

Oh, not to her. I thought there was. My buddy Ken knows a thing or two about hot teachers. no comment yeah no we had a couple hot teachers at our school yeah Ken knew him real well

I think one of them one of them got fired though because they uh what did they do Mike no I was I was gonna like kind of with one of the students no it wasn't one of the tall bearded ones yeah Ken well it didn't have the Ken look 21

when he was 16 they thought he was the janitor no that was the other thing sometimes when you get this isn't just necessarily my school but sometimes when you get like younger more attractive teachers they like end up getting fired because they're seriously yeah i mean female teachers or male teachers because i feel like there is a little bit of like if it's a male teacher it's like oh that's fucked

up and if it's a it was like it was like just like one a hooking up with the student a new maybe not hooking up a flirt no with well with uh another uh teacher there oh they're two teachers can't they're both married oh one of those and then wait is that what i'm thinking you yeah well well how about when you were like You had a teacher that, you know, would hang out with another teacher of the opposite sex. Like, you had a female teacher that would hang out with, like, the other male teacher. And they could have just been friends. But, like, the entire class is like, I bet they're together.

I had two teachers like that. They were both young. And we always, everybody, you know, of course, was making jokes. But the guy, I don't know if he had much, much skills on, yeah. Not much Riz. Yeah, not much Riz. But they ended up getting married. So it actually worked out.

Yeah, it's really funny because it was going. apparently it was going down and I feel like we all knew it was but I saw this TikTok one time of a guy being like all right I know I know there's you know a bunch of rumors that you kids are spreading seventh graders uh that me and miss Johnson are are dating and I just want to come up here confirm that we are and then he drops down on a knee and proposes what in front of the classroom what that's weird I was like what could think of anywhere better I was just going to say, I'd be like, lame. Yeah.

Wow. I know about bad proposals, but that's up there. That's cring. Yeah. I mean, maybe I guess they're really about the kids and the school and stuff, you know? I mean, I feel like you gotta be. Your teacher, God bless him. My dad asked me, I was talking to him on the phone this morning,

and he was like, hey, I'm going to have some work done at this. My land, what are you, by so-and-so, you got him as a teacher, didn't you? And I almost couldn't even help myself I was like yeah fuck that guy Oh really? And then I was like trying to think I was like man why did I hate that guy so much Couldn't remember really why

But still something within me Seventh grade I'm not gonna say what But yeah Don't really remember what the context of it was But clearly it stuck with me enough For 12 years later to be like Tell my dad that

I was like and then I like caught myself I was like and still use them still use them Don't let my opinion, you know, sway. I hate to. His work might be decent. Yeah, I hate to have this guy, you know, he could have been having a bad day back in seventh grade. He could have had a bad year.

He could have had a bad year, but, but yeah. He probably tells the same story about you. I had this one asshole student. They'd think back and he goes, I don't really remember why I didn't like him, but. That could be true. Yeah. Hot teachers.

Bless them. Bless them. So I've been seeing, this is like a. conversation that has been swelling up for a while. I've been seeing some TikToks and maybe some reels about it. But yeah, just dudes expressing themselves about how much they dislike the side-by-side community. And they go off, but they have a lot of good points.

And, you know, at the end of the day, I disagree with it because I love side-by-sides. And I think they aren't the future, but they're a big part of the future. Like what type of dude, I'm confused. So it's like dudes that, um, I would say they're like, Like, you remember when side-by-sides were just like a gator, you know, and they didn't, they went 35 and that was about it. And then, and then when the razors and stuff came out, it was cool. It was really cool for a little bit. And, uh, wow, okay, this is not a four-wheeler.

It's cool. And then he's like, now it's just getting out of hand. A lot of it comes down to, like, I guess if you, if you don't have the money for it, then, of course, you can complain about it. But it really has, it's came down to people spending $40, $50,000. for a OEM stock unit. And now it's gone to like $40,000, $80,000 maybe to soup up a razor. Yeah, a lot of them are like 80. Maybe, and some guy, they're kind of going after the guys that just drive them on

the street, you know, they're out of pavement princesses like side by sides. Also going after the guys that are like building these $50,000 units and just rolling them down a hill like in one weekend. Well, that's what they should do. I know. I agree. I can imagine they're too stoked about it. But.

Yeah. It's just like he was just going on. off about it and a lot of good points that it's a little over the top but I'm like but what is it? I mean just everything with cars you have like the guys who run the super crazy stance I think that's lame

well there's going to be those extremists in every aspect but I mean who's saying this is it like the banshee guy that is like probably or is it like a vehicle of four wheels it's more like it dude it seemed more like the die hard quad guys but the

yeah I'm like a banshee guy that's got all this money into banshees and it's so chromed up. Or like a three-wheeler guy who's just like, side-by-side wouldn't touch it. I drove the side-by-side home today and then back, and it was nice. It was a great cruise, except I would like a full windshield.

Yeah, it's a little eye watering when you're moving fast. And you were allegedly going 90? That thing is bad, bro. Holy shit. I had no freaking idea. That's crazy. I didn't know what that fast. I still had a little bit left in it, but I was holding

one hand. It was a little spirly. A thing might be slightly bent from hitting the big jumps that you guys have done. Yeah, that too. You pull a shifter car moment. I was thinking that. I'm like, God damn.

It won't be the same. Those things are amazing, though, honestly. Like, for what it is, you kind of just got to respect it for what it is and ignore the fact that 50% of the time that you turn the key,

something's going to break on it. But like, what you can do on it is pretty good. Ours is really good, though. Yeah, It's because we took off the metal care, we put on a new roof, the metal roof, and it doesn't have the washers in between the swastles.

That's what's rattles like it. You can drive that thing down the road like CJ and then you can go and jump it. Like Mike was jumping that thing, what, 100 feet? Yeah, that's what I mean? It's pretty amazing. Yeah, it's crazy.

Though it is an expensive unit, it literally drives like a car, has as much power as most cars, but yet has as much suspension as a trophy truck. And you can do anything with it. And it's got a freaking Bluetooth radio in it. I got to give a shout to a side-by-side-blog. Boy's for that cage.

Oh, yeah. I just, like, hit him up. I'm like, dude, we need a cage, you know, Ken just injured himself,

this and that, and then they just hooked it up. So you guys need parts to go to them. Seriously, I was going to say, side by side by them. I love those guys.

I love those guys. I've talked about them before. They're a group of guys just like us. But I was, I was like a naysayer of the whole like live valve suspension.

Like ours just has three settings, which is pretty dope. And then I know on the Can Ams they have like, like it reads 26,000 times a second. I think ours does too. It seems like overkill.

But, you know, it seems like a lot of extra money for whatever. And then you use it and you're like, oh, this is the best thing ever. Yeah, it's pretty. Comfort for whatever, firm for big jumps. And it makes a difference. Yeah. Yeah. There's like a whole community around here of guys with like Rangers.

And I've never seen them dirty. They just drive them back and forth to like the gas station because you hear them like whirring by when they go by because the tires are so loud. Yeah, you see Rangers all the time now. I think, so do Rangers get roped into the same class? I think that kind of sparked it again. It was like you get a bunch of guys that are using them as golf carts. Yeah, and a lot of times, that's fine.

But at the end of the day, a lot louder, a lot faster and a lot, you know, more aggressive than a golf cart. And, you know, you got guys hopping, well, this thing's got AC and you, it looks cool. You probably do a lot more with a golf card than most people do with a side-by-side, Mike. that's true honestly I think we all do we love fucking around on golf cart golf carts are some of the best vehicles ever made they're like little chicken nuggets for the road

yeah they're actually not meant for the road but they're like little chicken nuggets with wheels yeah they don't have enough power to hurt themselves really and they're so dense everything's close together that doesn't really bend that easy so you can really do whatever you want with them it's like Evan he's kind of like Evan's like a human golf cart

like he's just kind of dense he's built well you can take a beating well built he maybe picked that up from growing up on the country club maybe picked up a thing or two from the golf carts we were talking about uh you know we got a reckless golfing coming up at some point here and uh and uh

we were talking about parking the golf cart on the greens you know if i were to do that i maybe it seems kind of just it does seem disrespectful but okay park it up there it's not like you're going to do a burnout evan's like seriously, I'm not going to be a part of that. Well, he didn't want to be a part of any of the reckless golfing last year. You really didn't. Which we were very caught off guard by. You didn't think he'd be all about it.

Because we're like, yeah, we're like, dude, have some teas and just, it's like three hours. That's the thing that I'm... We'll get kicked out soon. I'm worried about Grandpa Ron. If we bring him with reckless golfing, he's going to have golf etiquette like Evan, because they, like, both would go golfing on the country club.

And that's what we don't have, and that's why we have no similar. empathy when we get in there but i believe we have some form of like course etiquette like in all of our videos never any golf carts through or across the greens like stuff like that we're never tearing up the lawn you know you jump a golf cart off a bunker a couple times and you no damage yeah you know i mean it's never anything that there would be a trace of us being there which i believe there's art in that i'd agree with that a taste well i just think we're yeah at the end of the day we're not being dicks like really to the property or definitely to people yeah we're just being reckless

but going off that about grandpa ron uh he's so locked in when he does shit he's so locked in he just deletes everything out of his brain and he just does it no matter who he's talking to if you never seen him in his life doesn't get that like it's nervousness of well i hope it's funny he just goes for it if he's not on the on his home country club turf maybe he'll you Loosen up a little bit. I won't think that way, but get them to a crappy local course. Yeah, I mean, depending on when you guys are watching this, if you're watching it early, we might be reckless golfing right now.

That's on the schedule, yeah. Evan and I are going to need to be medicated for that. Yeah, Ryan, you don't like doing that either. I feel like you just got to get a mindset. I was telling you guys, like, I think we got to start prepping, like for the next, like a five-day prep, just get ready. Get rid of all the cares in the world. Yeah, things are going to break around here and it's going to happen,

but we're just getting in the mindset. I love that idea. I'm just trying to think of, like, how to do it because at the end of the day, it really is easy to go cold turkey when you guys are doing pranks and when you're doing any of that stuff, just go, I don't care. None of these people are going to see me ever again, do whatever I want. Yeah, we are blacklisted from like most of the golf courses around. Dude, we were trying to go golfing last weekend and we're like, oh, well, we could go over

to this course. We're like, oh, you probably need a tea time there. We're like, well, we could go over to that local course. You don't need a tea time there and go, well, I'm a, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, probably not allowed back there. Pretty jammed up last time we were there. Yeah, we got us travel to go golfing now. That is a potential, though.

Ev said we could maybe go up to his. Oh, my goodness. He's not going to like that. I mean, I don't know. He sounded like more comfortable of the idea of that. He was like, then we could at least ask for forgiveness easier. I don't know.

I don't know how that would work. I think you're better off just getting in the truck and peeling out of there. Yeah, the biggest thing is that, I mean, it sounds bad to say, like i just don't want to get kicked out too early they can kick us out you know i hope no one gets arrested i'm not planning for that but uh well dude we uh it was so funny our our buddy connor the other day asked if he's like the next time you guys go reckless golfing i want to come we've been asked that plenty of time before and i'm like there's a common event that people want to be a part

uh and then evan just and then evan i don't know if he's just trying to scare him away or what but He's like, well, are you, like, good to maybe get arrested? I was like, whoa, I'm not planning on that. That's how Evan looks at reckless golfing. You're like parked within five yards of the green. You're getting arrested. Cops are coming. And then, yeah, you guys shank you because you're a shitty golfer.

Jail. Forget to yell four. That's two days. Man, I think that so many groups have came through a lot of these golf courses and done way worse things like these bachelor parties and stuff like that yeah just like people who actually truly don't care yeah and they're truly like we're one and done liquor it up too yeah once we ever talk about reckless golfing i feel like somebody in a group will pipe up and go oh me and my buddies we got kicked out on so-and-so's bachelor party we went there and we go what'd you guys do oh well

we rolled three golf cards yeah i was going to say they rolled multiple cards we left cans like they just start saying some real like golf card in the pond yeah we like we left golf cart in the pond and we're like seriously be like we need you to do reckless golfing i don't know i think we do a pretty damn good job yeah we had it so last weekend we we flew up the winners of the two million sweatshirt giveaway that we did so two million two million subscribers sold the sweatshirt everyone that bought the sweatshirt got entered to win a weekend with us picked the winner and we flew him and his buddy up total beauties total beauties good kids 22 years old honestly just like a us like enjoy the same stuff um and they were just a good hang good hang i was telling someone

that they were a little too normal for us we like hanging out with weirdos we have the most fun with we do the weirder you are like we appreciate it we're almost like all of our friends right now or like oh that's why is that me so no one else hangs with me and i this isn't a bad thing i'm sure uh they are listening to this right now we we didn't meme them we just had a genuine good time that's what i mean well they didn't mean they didn't mean meme themselves. Yeah. You got to meet yourself.

Yeah. And they didn't give us any ammo. Which is actually super surprising because we spent three days with them and they didn't leave us with anything. They were just normal dudes. Yeah. They got to see the good, the bad, the ugly, all of it. Oh, yeah.

They got a pretty true experience. The real experience. Yeah. So are we taking the Hummer Pontoon out? We ended up getting the Hummer Pontoon registered as an actual homemade as a pontoon. So it's registered, it's got numbers. It is legal to take out on the water. It is a legal boat.

It's legal. I don't know what they'll say when they see it. Because we'll have everything. But no, no, it's registered. It's everything. We got it. We went through the work. We paid for it.

Just got a lot of that. No. I don't believe you need insurance. You don't. So we could take cars insured. We could take that. Maybe just leave that on. It's got to count for something.

We could take that thing to the sandbar. weekend. I think that would be funny. I wonder what people are going to say? Everyone will be packed in there and like we come rolling in with the Hummer Pondon. No, no. I mean,

at the Sandbar. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, I was going to say, I don't know how many people we want, how many more people we want to be in there. We had what? Four.

It was good. Honestly, you could probably put in quite a bit more. I think you could do 10. That's where I'd cap it. Yeah, for sure. 10 max.

It's fun to think of our dream of wanting to pull up to the sandbar with a pirate ship. Yeah, It's another step closer. And that's still a dream. But the next best thing is a black homer with the Bontunes connected to do it. Dude, the pirate ship, when people ask like, what's your guys this long game? Like, how are you going to do this? Tell we get a pirate ship, man.

That's the goal. Then what? Well, we're going to sail around the world. Yeah, be pirates. What do you mean, then what? How much more could you do? We bought a pirate ship. That's kind of end game.

That's what I mean. From there, you just become. I'm a pirate, you know, get a parrot and cut your leg off and I know, well, they don't cut Commodore ships. They get it bit off, but they get it bit off? Yeah, but like a shark. Stereotypical thing for a peg leg. But anyway, I patch, parrot.

Would you be a peg leg? I feel like you'd fit pretty well for like the peg leg. Yeah, I'd do it. Wait, is there actually only, you know how like in the times of pirates, does only one guy, like the captain actually get to like dress like that, like with the true, like, Jack Sparrow hat? Yeah. Yeah, and I feel like everybody else's is real grimy.

Yep, just grimy. They're all dirty from cleaning the ship. The poop deck. Yeah, the poop deck. For a limited time at McDonald's, enjoy the tasty breakfast trio. Your choice of chicken or sausage McMuffin or McGrittles with a hash brown and a small iced coffee for $5.00 plus tax.

Maybe it's time to part ways With this pirate ship We're in the market We're in the market There is a guy In Virginia And he makes them His gig is buying

Old pirate ships Not like real pirate ships but old like you know fun pirate ships and redoing them wow and i have they cost well there was one that went around and uh it it was reasonably priced it was not inexpensive and shipping it across the country will also not be inexpensive but man i tell you what your guys is little bay over there having a big old pirate ship it's going to look nice it's not even it's better yeah it's more the pinnacle of success pirates bay yeah that'd be sick or But Pirates.

Pirates Cove. Oh, you're headed over to the butt pirates in Pirates Bay. He's like, no, no, no, no, not that. How about pirate? Yo, couldn't we just get Big Wrench to make one? Bro, you make him a shipbuilder? A Big Ranch could do it. Hey, Big Ranch.

We need a pirate ship done by the 4th of July. Hey, Big Ranch, you got 48 hours. That should be enough, right? Him and Ev. Like bending wood and stuff. I'll find that pirate ship and maybe he's got him on for sale. The issue isn't finding a pirate ship. The issue is buying a pirate ship and then being able to ship it here.

Yeah, and we don't really live in like a pirate ship territory when you think of Minnesota. It's not really that common. So it has to be shipped from a long distance. And that's, it's really hard to get a large wooden ship long distance on land. Like you couldn't even run it up the Great Lakes. Well, you could. You could get it within four hours of us.

Our next RV trip is a, us conning in our pirate ship from the Gulf of Mexico up the Mississippi to home. That sounds way more than like, yeah, we did an RV trip. Then it sounds more like a, I spend 50 hours camping in Antarctica. That sounds like, I'm so excited about this right now. Be lit. How close could we get with the Mississippi? Well, I mean, technically the headwaters is just over yonder.

But could we actually go up the Mississippi? You could get to Minneapolis before there was like a dam. Pretty easy. Really? Yeah. You can get north of Minneapolis for sure, but I'm not sure. How much more nor do it. Well, then it's not that far of a trick. We got to do it.

Dude. Eventually, when we go no videos for like five weeks, it's because we're traversing the Mississippi on a wooden ship. How long would it take? Shit, I don't know, probably not a short amount of time, but it would be legendary. And we could just send Ken and Mike. Then it wouldn't be legendary.

With a GoPro. On a stick. So that, I guess that excites me because that means we have to get a pirate ship that at least has some accommodations. You know, it doesn't have to have, like, rooms on it, obviously. But it can't just be an open thing with just wood. Like, there's got to be, yeah, like a sink. Guys, I cannot explain to you how excited I get every time we talk about a pirate ship.

Yeah, I'm getting fired up, too. I'm getting fired up. Dude, I could just see us con in that bitch up the Mississippi. Absolutely no experience whatsoever navigating a shipping channel in a large boat that we have no business driving. It's so good. It's perfect. It's so good. I love it.

Everything is just amazing about that. I think we could do it. Dude, and then I just picture it when we're sailing in, it'd be like all of our friends and family there. It'd be like, Oh, my gosh, yeah. Lewis and Clark or Christopher Columbus.

Yeah, hitting America. The news is there. Oh, for sure. They did it. They did it. They really did it. Local Cornrod boys really did it.

And instead of being known for the jet ski jump, we're finally known for something noble. It's all of us just dressed as pirates? We'd 100% have to dress up. They disassemble it. For sure. They disassemble it and they put it into the museum that's going to be built in Cormoran one day. Around it.

Like the freaking Yemcombe Center. Apparently the Scandinavian, the rumor has it, I think it's real, that when the waters were high and this was some gigantic ancient lake that the Vikings would come around here and they would like hook up. to these different hills and like mooring points i don't really know i don't believe all of it but there's a big ass ship in moorhead that they say sailed here like huge they built a whole building around it so that'll be ours we'll have that in cormoron they'll shake in his head that that ship was actually built in holly minnesota in the 80s i'm sorry to fuck tramp on your parade but well i mean why did they build a whole building around it and make this whole thing they they like sailed the Norway back. They built it in this little potato shed and they sailed it all the way across

the ocean. That's legendary. They deserve it. Build the building around them. I can't wait to have a little tin shed around our boat. Can't stop thinking about it. Me either. We got to freaking end this podcast and go find a pirate ship. I know. The Mississippi, the only impediment that you have is St. Anthony Falls in downtown Minneapolis. You have to take it out, go around the falls, go back up and then you can go all the way to the headwaters. Really? Yeah. Well, perfect. We're to unload it in Minneapolis and then it's only a couple hundred miles of interstate I can see the thumbnail already pulling our pirate ship with our duly Ford Ranger 100% Ken how many uh nautical miles is it down the Mississippi and how many locks do we have to

go through and to get to new Orleans 2,340 and there's nothing in between Minneapolis and New Orleans really there's a bunch of locks and stuff right that's going to take weeks I mean 2,000 miles at what, 10 miles an hour? Oh, maybe two weeks. I mean, how fast you think we're going to go in this thing? I think we could throw at least a bigger motor. There's 29. 29 locks?

And that's definitely where the time hold up is, is those. I didn't even know those existed until our buddy jet ski down it. And he just spent, he's like jet skis for an hour and then spends an hour in the lock, which would be unfortunate. But if it was a week, we could definitely do it. If it was two weeks, we'll have an Xbox. Do you think we could do it within five days? Don't tempt me with that, Ryan.

Yeah, we're like, when we're planning the thing, we're like, all right, we're going to edit all day Thursday, Friday. We're going to fly to Florida, hop on the pirate ship and then drive it. And we got to be home by Tuesday night so we can edit the, or by Wednesday night so we can edit the video and get it live by Thursday. I'm like, guys, it is impossible to travel 3,000 miles by water in five days. Evan says that and we're just like, bro, you're always so negative. You're always so negative, dude. We have to average 70 miles an hour on water. We're like, we'll do it, put a $2.50 on the back.

Yeah, we look at big wrench. Three, four hundreds? You do it, right? He's like, no. Well, you guys are just asking me to mod a pirate chip. I don't do that. I promise, I pinky promise, I'll come back to this podcast next week with updates of a pirate ship and our journey. Oh, man, Ryan.

That was a tall order, I did. Yeah, but I'm spending all day in the car tomorrow with Ken driving around purchasing things from Facebook Marketplace. Yeah, good luck. Wait, you guys are making moves? Yeah, the lady at the bank today, when I withdrawed a significant amount of cash for a bunch of different things, she was like, what are you doing? And I was, don't worry about it, mind your own business, woman. No, but I didn't really know how to explain it without sounding ridiculous.

I'm kidding. That was a joke. But I do love the ladies over Midwest Bank. Walked in Bell, just didn't feel right. Really? Yeah. It's kind of bummer. And you don't have the cookies.

Well, I'm 0 for one on Facebook Marketplace purchases this week. Ken, if we drive all the way to cities and someone's a no-show, I'm going to have a freaking. I might have to walk back. I have a stroke. Ken, I'm very surprised that you would drive somewhere if they hadn't responded. And bring Evan. So the dude was a foreigner and he was responding pretty quickly. And I just assumed like, hey, I said, hey, can I meet you tonight?

and he said, yeah. And I said, okay, can I meet you at this time? And I was like, okay, I'm just going to save time, leave now. I'll get the address while we're on the way, and it'll be good. I want to bring Evan with because this dude looks a little sketch. Oh, so you needed a bodyguard? Yeah. You thought Evan was going to be able to handle him?

Well, he's got the hog. He's pretty big, so. What, he's going to hit him with his dick? Helicopter. Get away, get away. Yeah. It's like numshuck. Foreigner wanted sexual favors.

Needed to make sure he was satisfied. But never showed. Waste of time. Hell yeah. I mean, none of you guys commented on my shirt because we never do, but it says, well,

whoa, whoa, well, we do. It says something about license to lift and it's a forklift, but I saw a guy wearing a hearty shirt the other day, and it said, Shaved and proud.

Wow. And I went, I've worn a lot of aggressive shirts. And he's talking about his sack and... I don't know. I think it was about the hearty shaved meat. I'm trying to think of in any scenario you'd wear that saying on any shirt and that's why I go dude I am you're preaching to the choir here but what possessed you to put on that shirt this morning and go fill your car up with gas like well how about yesterday Mike wearing his referee jersey all day long yeah it took like five to figure out that like I just looked at you I went good morning Mike like that was it I didn't say anything either hey Mike we had like you know we have Plenty of costumes from over the years.

And I just, like, threw the ref jersey on because it was an ex-out and it was comfy. Oh, this is nice. And then I was like, I should probably take it off before I get roasted. Go downstairs. No one says anything. Go all day. No one says anything. Then I go, like, we go out in public.

And then other people are like, you just get done with the game. And then I'm like, shit, the guys didn't roast me well enough to make me, like, realize this. To think of it, like, taking it off. There's nothing out of the ordinary. Not at all. For us. Speaking of a shirt, so that's some nice. merch over there.

Yeah, new merch drop, September 22nd. As far as I know, that is the week after this comes out. September. No, it'd be this, September? This Thursday. Bro. This Thursday. June 22nd.

What's on September 22nd? Yeah, so it's in two days from in this podcast. Oh, man. What month is? It's our 4th of July drop. Mm-hmm. Yeah. Fireworks.

Some good shit. Fourth of July drop. You guys already know a giveaway that you'll probably want. want to be entered in so yeah big giveaway you don't know what month it is that's fine dude i barely you're out of it i don't know what day it is i don't even want to look at how fast summer is going i know bro i don't even i actually it's one of those times when people talk about it and you get upset and you say shut up do you think life goes faster as you get older yes 100% i feel like it does too yeah i think so i heard an interesting theory on that and it was that when

you are uh let's say 10 years old a day is such like a large portion of your life maybe that's backwards when you're 10 years old it's like a day and it's a bigger portion of your life but when you get older a day is a smaller portion well it makes sense of when you're older one day is like a smaller percentage of the time you've lived so yeah but when you're young obviously it's like oh right right right and i think it goes it goes down to like what you learn you know for if you've been alive for four five years and you learn x in a day you're learning a substantial amount for how long you've been alive you guys remember anything for me in five yeah kindergarten really do i think my earliest memory is like crawling around

with a balloon that's actually crazy like i definitely really that's your first core memory i mean i barely remember but i just have like a little bit crawling i don't know if i was five i just remember it was like i had a little bell and i was just like crawling and there's ballooners like ding ding ding seriously like you were like baby baby staff i have no idea i mean like for some reason have a little bit of a memory of that yeah having your first memories when you're three and four makes sense but yeah if you were five i'd be like missed out on something or do you guys remember your first memory man i've i've certain memories back from like being like two and three of like the moment but not necessarily like what happened in it but yeah i remember like uh when i was two my dad would like put me on a little

four-wheeler like a players four-wheeler and then a snow scoot i like remember driving around the lake on it oh that's pretty young that's pretty young two yeah yeah wait yeah two's tiny yeah yeah you could drive i mean i don't know about drive i could go in circles that's pretty good actually it at least sit there and do something my first my first was when i was three and it was like the flood of 97 technically 98 it was three then were you sandbagging No, but I remember going on the street just being stoked Because the street was now a river You know, like the street was fully filled with water

And I'm just like, who did this? This is pretty sick And then just splashed down on the street And I'm like, I can't believe, is it going to be like this forever? And then they're like, no, it's flooded. I'm like, I don't know what that is. Mike's crawling up on the dike gets arrested. No, dude, I just live down like the road from CJ

Like all of Fargo was flooded. I wasn't even close to the river. I remember, I wonder if there's anyone who has like memory of it all like like they remember like popping out of that day or like first day out yeah there's got to be in this have some kind of super memory and i was thinking about that the other day there's got to be people out there that can remember every single detail like it's real time like playing it out like this is exactly what i did when i woke up and then this is exactly what i did that day you have better memory

of doing like a lot of the stuff we were doing right now if you ever slow down you know you'll be able to almost like collect your thoughts more right now it's just like everything's going so fast i feel like in general we just get fed so much info like i've looked at facebook marketplace today a significant amount like i've looked at thousands of items and when have you you at you know when in the past or in other parts of life have you ever like had that much information just like thrown at you yeah yeah i just saw a video about that too like yeah dude's like i swear i mean i don't know i'm not looking this up but i probably consumed more content and things today than someone in like the 30s have consumed their entire life

life yeah you get some radio and some tv that's it but then he also said something really funny he's like you know like i'm watching a video of like just a podcast clip but then below it most of the rest of the video is just like some mobile game that's like supposed to be satisfying he's like when did we decide that that was going to be the way we were going to digest content I was wondering the same thing. How did we get that? Who decided that? It works, though.

Dude, how many podcasts have you listened to it? The little subway surfer's guy. I disagree. I disagree that it works. As in like, I'd listen to it either way because I think about it and it pisses me off. But then someone,

yeah, posted it and was like how we're going to watch like movies in 2050 and you go to the movie theater and they're playing the movie in like this little streaming area and the rest of it's just a mobile game replay or like GTA, yeah. Did you guys see that they're coming out with a new GTA? Really? I guess. Yeah,

I did. But, like, to be honest, and we're talking about six here? Yeah. Wow, I never know if it's set in stone. GTA 5 came out when I was in the 11th grade. Yeah.

It was 2013. Yeah. So, yeah, they've been working on it for 10 years. But essentially. But GTA 5 still makes a stupid amount of money every single day. Yeah,

they've been revamping as it goes, but still, it's like the same general game. If you start up the career mode right now, I'm pretty sure you play the same. Yeah, I think that was... No, it's all the online. There's expansion packs. I mean, it's like a whole universe, dude.

Oh, there is more. I was always, I think the thing that wasn't selling me on GTA 5 was it the map didn't grow. The heist and the characters did online. Lots of cool stories, but the map's fucking huge. Dude, the new map, look that up, Ken, how much bigger the new GTA map is. And it's my favorite part is it's of Florida, Southwest Florida. It makes sense. Yeah.

Two times is big, but it looks even more. When does that come out? Estimated 2025. Wow. Oh. So GTA. Are we even going to be around then? Hopefully.

GTA 5 makes $2.5 million every single day. Still? Made a billion dollars last year. Holy. And that's an old game, dude. That's crazy. People live their life. like in that game like they have jobs like some people are like fast food freaking people some

people are like pimps i've seen that like some people are like the you like role plays that work for the pimp and like they have to like yeah it's like all just role play and i don't know why i mean it sounds kind of fun but also like i want to just do something in real life i don't know i think you sent it ryan it was like this dude out on his yacht and he had an f40 a ferrari f40 sitting on it, going to Morocco F1 or whatever. And then tons of comments, like, this is how you know you're rich, this and that. And this guy

comments, I can't even afford this in GTA, which is saying something, because usually if you play it long enough, you can buy a tank if you want, yeah. I think with VR headsets, like those kind of games are going to become so realistic. Oh, dude, it's going to be crazy.

It's going to be so cool, honestly. It really will be. There's days I miss. I wish I had the time to play video games occasionally. I feel like it'd be kind of fun. I agree. Like lock in and be good. But the problem is now I'm so bad at them, it'd be way too frustrating.

Like I couldn't go play Fortnite. I'd get wrecked. Yeah. I'd get just demolished. You were getting wrecked back in the day. Yeah, when I tried to play. Ken, do you still play, is it plane simulator or farm simulator? It's actually the lawn mowing simulator.

A lawn mowing simulator. No, I thought it was a plane. I haven't, I don't even remember the last time we turned my Xbox on. Ken bought an Xbox and we were like, what are you going to play? with that oh i don't know only game he bought was i thought it was it playing or lawnmore i actually got uh i got the game pass you pay like 15 bucks a month for you to never use it it's the worst thing ever but but you could get unlimited games yeah nice that's kind of cool speaking of crazy money though did you guys see that happy dad he sold six million cases of happy dad

yeah that's wild and then now you start doing the math on they sold it for 20 dollars a case What do you think it costs per case? Quick little bag. Six. Like, genuinely, what does it cost to? Six million dollars times 20. I think. $120 billion?

Million. Million. $120 million bucks on a happy dad. You know, the only thing I'm confused is why the fuck is it not in Minnesota yet? Like, two turn, Tony has his own hard tea and it's in Minnesota already. Really? Yeah. He's sending us some, by the way.

Is he really? Yeah. Did you hit him up or what? No, I don't know. His team hit us up and was like, hey, on C-Bush. You guys want some free booze or something like that? You know, it's probably pretty basic. Sick?

I was like, yeah. Thank you. Free boost? Yes, please. It is really interesting. I think there's like a lot of politics when it comes to the alcohol business. I think it's super regulated. It just seems strange that like North Dakota, Minnesota.

None of the states around us. I don't know about Wisconsin, but... Do you think it's regulated by alcohol companies? Part of it's to do with like the alcohol distributor. and different regions and all the different laws and like who plays politics with who. It's freaking crazy. It is cool though.

That's a lot. $120 million. Dude, that's nuts. For them. Already only after like two years and not even every state. They're not in Canada. I think the thing about that though is you got to wonder how many people have like

are a part of that pot. Oh, quite a few. I'm sure a lot. It's like it's not an easy product to manufacture and it's not a, an easy product to distribute, you know, like so many people along the way are getting their fingers in there somewhere. Average net profit on alcohol is 10 to 15%. Really?

So it's smaller than you'd think. It's not like a shirt, but... I'm sure there's things to look into and that we could benefit from it. But one thing that stokes me is that, like, we've never turned to investors. And, you know, one day we might have to. One day we might not have to. We have big ideas. But, like, investors with their hands...

in essentially your bucket, that's not fun. Scary business, yeah. It can mean good things, and a lot of times makes things possible that would never be possible. Yeah, I think the thing about investors, if you're like bringing those or that kind of money in, if you need it, is like, you're probably doing something big. And if you have the right person who can add more than just money. If it's just money, they're not taking anything else away. Yeah, that's true.

Yeah, well, I, I bought up 10% for this. I want, like, some decisions, and then they, like, say no on one big idea, and then you're like, I'm just glad we don't have to deal with it. Yeah. There was people back in the day that after our very first talk or whatever at, they asked to do, like, a TED talk, and this one kid's dad wanted to, like, asked if we needed, like, money for investing and for, like, obviously a percentage then. And we just said no.

but yeah i think a lot of people listening right now too if if you want to start something or like do your own thing if you find the right bank having a bank in your pocket can be like your greatest asset yeah like when we were trying to move into this shop and buy this shop we're like shopping around from like a couple different banks and like this one bank wouldn't even give us a loan for like $80,000 to buy the rest of the shop. And we had like all of it paid off and cash. We provided them with some very solid information and backing. Yeah, yeah.

And it was like a fairly small amount of money that we needed to buy the rest of it against like a, you know, big asset like that. It wasn't asking for much. And they wouldn't give it to us. No, it was so frustrated. And we like just went down the road, went to another bank and like, laughed at that they couldn't believe that like someone wouldn't and we've been with them ever since and like they've taken care of us on a Friday morning call them personal level yeah need

something by Friday afternoon but like I think that's super important and if if you can't get something done or if a certain bank doesn't believe in like the vision or won't give you money for you know some idea that you have or or business loan like just go and find someone that will because they are out there. My dad tells this cool story about when he was buying his first ever Lake property, he was young at the time. And Lake property back then wasn't like sought after. And so back then it wasn't like you put in a loan request at a bank online. You know, you drove around, you sat down, you shook hands, you put on a suit, like all that shit. And he said he drove from every bank from Fargo all the way down Highway 10 around and asked everybody for money. And they

wouldn't give him the same thing he had more than like 50% down they wouldn't give him this little amount of money he needed and uh i may be exaggerating on how i remember it but how i remember it is he said he was so sad he was like almost crying or was and the only thing that would make him happy is in his childhood he used to go through the barnsville dairy queen and drove through the barnsville dairy queen as he was sitting there eating a peanut buster barfay he saw another bank and he walked in there and they gave him the money and then from there on out it's almost like the small town banks. If you get a personal relationship with that or with bankers like that, then it'll help you a lot more than bigger places is what we've found. So anyway, it's kind of

just some advice. A little business advice for you guys. Also, ain't nothing wrong with a little leverage here and there too. If you want to like put some money in and then loan the rest for a big idea or a big purchase that you're going to grow the business with, like ain't nothing wrong with that, which I think people don't talk enough about enough, especially with like real estate too. If you want to buy a rental house or some kind of property that's going to be making you money, put 20% down, finance the rest, and then and then have a tenant pay for, for your mortgage. And have to kick them out for smoking pot. Might happen. Might happen. But like, I think a lot of, there's like this idea that a lot of people

are afraid of debt and there is such thing as like good or bad debt for sure some people cannot handle that but if it's like a uh uh cash producing asset or in our case if we were to buy something that's going to be making content something like that nothing wrong with i'd just say you better make sure sorry i'd just say you better make sure it's a good i you know it's a safe bet you know like if you're going to get a loan like don't be getting alone for something stupid yeah well i'm not telling you to go out and get like a a crazy car loan at 12% but like for people that have a business yeah yeah you know yeah for sure I was like because it's easy to say it's got to be a safe bet but I was like

calculated risk taking has got us to where we are today yeah no I'd say like I mean going and getting a college loan and or getting a loan for like a business idea startup is about the same yeah especially yeah especially if you put the same time and effort that you put into school if you do exactly you know i just always think of that you put a bunch of money to school with nothing wrong with that if you break down the money per class that it costs in the time you don't usually if you're going to university you don't even want to know and some of those classes are online and some of those classes you blow off because they're online now because of COVID and you're looking at $50 a session oh you just paid $50 to sleep through class or go to class and not learn anything

or it's maybe still learning something it's just crazy yeah it is not and you went to three classes today, holy shit. Yeah. But yeah, put that same into a business. I'm not saying to do that, but you can really benefit you if you have a solid, stern idea that you're confident with. And say you got a pressure washing company and you're like, man, I really need some money for the business and you could buy a new trailer so you could do bigger jobs.

That's a good idea. Buying, using that money to put forces on your truck so you look cool. Not a good idea. You know, there's smart uses for everything. But shit, maybe you're the guy with the pressure washing company driving around on forces. And then everybody goes, that guy looks cool. I want to work for him. Don't let me tell you what to do.

Tell yourself what to do. Yeah. That's good. I was getting a kick on that. The guys, you know, they're starting, whatever, carpent, whatever, any business. And they're, like, tricking their trucks out. I don't hate it. I'm all for it, whatever.

But, like, they're tricking. Oh, the whole fleet's got to be tricked out, too. I have my truck, which is going to be the coolest. And then I have Donnie's, my right-hand men, they're going to have F-250s, and they're obviously lifted. They won't have forces on them, but they got to be nice. Ain't no work. We're not doing vinyl floors here, which, like, you could just definitely just do work trucks.

Yeah. I did like, I heard our buddy, Luke Payne, he has an excavating company, and he has all black machines. He gets them painted. He hangs American flags from them, and they're always clean and stuff. And someone asks him, like, why do you spend all that money? And he goes, well, I'm proud of my work, and I want my machines to show it. and stuff like that.

So there's sides to the coins. Yeah, I think there is something to be said about a guy pulling up to your house to give you a quote on, you know, some landscaping thing and he's driving a nice truck.

You can tell that he's got attention to detail and his truck is clean and maybe it's not overkill, but it looks presentable. That's a good, actually a good point. Even if you can't afford the nice truck yet, make your truck clean when they pull up, even if it is the 90s Chevy,

but if that 90 Chevy looks like it's gotten a car wash this century yeah you know low attention to detail and yeah don't throw your Mountain Dew bottles and your tequito wrappers and your passenger floors or in the back of your truck bed

I know a lot of people do that like Evan does it we got a lot of empty twisted teas in the back of the seema truck really? Yeah from what? I mean what do you mean yeah I was gonna say probably drink them.

How'd they end up there? Who knows? In the habit of cleaning that out once a week, even would do people wonders. Yeah, for sure. Well, Ken's signal on us that the cameras are too hot. We podcasted too hard today, boys. Man, these summer podcasts are just getting off the charts, man.
