Oh, Evan. It's a couch potato. I don't know what that guy eats, but his shit is pungent. Like his internal organs. Like, I'd imagine they're rotten. It's just brewed differently. Like Jeffrey Dahmer would have turned Evan away type of stuff. Like he did.

Evan would have stepped foot in his apartment. Tooted like a little partial slip. And he would have said, dude, get out. I don't care. I had some real foul plans with you, but get out. You're too dirty. That's what you said. And Evan would be like, what?

I thought we were going to hang out and take some pictures. And you're like, no, get out. Get out. Do I have a beer for the road? No, get the hell out. All right. Okay, on that beautiful note, welcome back to the Life Wide Open podcast. Yeah, welcome back.

It feels good to be back in the studio. Kind of was fun being out in Washington, but it's good to be back with the boys. Yeah, last podcast was legendary. I don't know if it was because I wasn't there or probably more so just because it was an awesome podcast, but it was fun listening to it as like a true listener. It was excellent. If you guys haven't checked it out, go listen to it after this one. It is fun to be back with you guys.

I was doing a little self-reflect. I was thinking about, remember when you were a kid and you would mess up and you didn't quite want to come clean with your parents about what you did? Yeah, and he would just come up with a little fib. I thought of, there was no way my dad even believe this for a second.

And before you tell it, it was little, right? Little fam. No, it was a big fib, dude, I fucked up for sure. It was right as we just started to like drink back when we were a little younger, definitely 13 14 No we're not that young

But you were there I remember We smoked a cigar Outside of his house What You remember that Outside of You too

Yeah Yeah And we like Hid behind the garage Like it was a big deal For us Okay Anyway we went to this house party

And I you know drove my car over there My beloved Sion TC And we parked In the ditch Outside of the house party Yeah And in some point

In that evening someone backed up and dented the side of my door and like mangled the side of the doorside. I'm like, we come out in the morning. And I was like, fuck, what am I going to do? And they came back and I was like, well, what happened to your car? And I went, oh, me and the guys,

we went to Cherryberry in a movie and someone backed out and ran into the side of my car. He's getting drunk at a house party. I told my dad I was at Cherryberry. So you just, You just had your insurance company pay for it? No, I think we did out of pocket. Because it was, I mean, technically like a hit and run, you know?

They left the party backed into your shit. I thought you were going to tell some story like he was totally on to you. This dude is lying. No, I'm going to just give it. Well, I mean, that was such a pretty minimal fib. Right. I figured there was a little fib. I know.

I never told him that. So if he's listening, this will be the moment that he knows. He'd be like, I knew you didn't go to. Fucking Cherryberry. Can I tell you something? Yeah. Yeah, it was me. I was buzzing on that cigar.

Oh, yeah, right. You were like 14. You couldn't even drive yet. What do you have even hit him in? Oh, you were not driving? Are you actually lying? Because I wish that was true. No, I'm kidding.

That's not quite the clean. I held that in. I didn't even have my driver's license yet, but I was buzzing so hard. I knew I needed to go home. Get this man as keys. I had a friend in, I guess the only time I can think of where I was fibbin and it was very obvious that i were good at telling the truth i wasn't uh was i was with my friend sean and he was such a troublemaker and it was like we're in the ninth grade

he had his license and we're buzzing around and like he'd be like let's hang out and they'd come pick me up and we'd just cruise around town then we'd like go to walmart and like just me and like he would like just do some dumb shit and i'd just be tagging along anyways we like pull into his his house and his dad was a really nice guy but like he was smart and he was actually i think he was in the marines at one point he's like a pretty successful guy i can't remember what he did something software but he's a smart dude like he could look you in the in the eye and like no if you're so we pull up and and he goes make sure you don't tell my dad that we went to walmart don't tell my dad that we went to walmart i'm like you weren't supposed to be a walmart i don't know apparently

not and like we hop out and his dad's in the parking lot in his driveway and Sean runs in and leaves me just out to dry and his dad goes so Siege what were you guys up to? And I was like not at Walmart Target just driving around

I don't know I don't even know what I said I like said maybe we wouldn't got ice cream or something like and he goes really you sure about that? I'm like You know, I'm at that point Backtracking in my tracks And he goes

I think you guys went to Walmart What? No He had to have some tracking device on him Now that I look back on it But I just held true to my guns Like I always do and I was like, no No

He just sat there looking at me like This kid is a real idiot But I was just hung out to drive by his idiot son Which we were both idiots but at least at that time and he's not anymore I still am but yeah that was pretty embarrassing moment

just being caught at that age just in a fucking lie in a lie but I held true I couldn't have got I pretty sure I was sweating I just love like stern gout dude the series of events there when you started telling that story Ryan goes

you really have always been good at telling the truth and then it's like normally you go to Walmart yeah normally you're parents yeah did you go to Walmart I didn't see what the problem with going to Walmart was but apparently he didn't want me telling him his dad that we were at Walmart.

I'm like, too, we didn't even do anything bad. It's funny how, like, you have always told the truth with your parents and everything like that. But, like, you and I could bullshit somebody so easy. But it's like if it's, we're putting like two completely different positions where like I'm probably still not a very good liar, but like I'm a really good bullshitter. Yeah, if I'm messing with someone, I couldn't like make them believe that we just got back from Russia. Yeah, we were in Russia, like, filming this video with that Russian YouTuber, you probably don't know yet. You know, we'd like just make this whole thing up.

FPS Russia. I've never really looked at that as like lying. It's almost like ridiculous. I never like, it's like ridiculous. It's so ridiculous because you're trying to see when, when you and I do that, when we're messing with people, it's more of us, it's not us lying. It's us trying to see how far we can stretch this story and make it seem so. far-fetched but have them still believing us in a way kind of making them seem stupid and then we just it's like an inside joke right sometimes we'll pick up we'll pick up on it immediately if we can kind of push our limits with somebody like um a couple video or a while back uh Gavin the three-wheeler kid came up and we found out basically in the first like 15 minutes that this dude was so gullible

like you believe anything oh he had no reason not to believe us right So naturally, me and CJ are just, like, instant bullshitting. Like, yeah. It got to the point where we had to, like... You left, and we made up this whole elaborate story, like, oh, yeah, Ryan. Yeah, he's not allowed to hang out with us if we're not, like, working, like, filming. What? Why?

Well, his girl, man. She doesn't like us. He's a, what? And he still dates her? We're like, yeah. Yeah, I don't know, man. He just loves her. And, like, we're just going on and on.

And we stretched it so far And then you came back And you were like I gotta go home Like I got dinner with my girl And Gavin like took his hat off And he's like Dude come on

I'm here from Colorado That's why I remember him Busted my chops about that And I was like you just have a couple beers We're like yeah He's like not allowed to drink or nothing I'm not sure if we actually ever cleared that up with him No we did

We did the next day Okay We let him believe it for a whole night Because there is a lot of things Where we just like Let him go Yeah I think we also convinced him that you were a liberal

90% You guys always do that. I'm in such a pinch. I'm like, I'm not. And then they're like, oh, geez, it's okay, man. He believed it. No one ever second,

they go, yeah, I could see it. They always say that. I ain't. Not saying there's anything wrong. Like, I'm not going to discriminate against anything, but it's funny to say Ryan is.

Like circling back, I mean, I don't know if this is necessarily a good thing, but 90% of the time when you guys are trolling, it's like all made up, right? You know, like, the only thing that's not made up

is that you're using a real person as your example. And it's super fun to be on the inside, of it but when you're on the outside of it it sucks because you because outside outside as you don't even know what's going on hold up outside as in you're the one being trolled or outside as in you're watching us do our thing on somebody else unsuspecting a bit of both mainly either when you are on the outside of the troll when like maybe I know I'm being trolled which because now I finally picked up on that and that really sucks uh or when you're on the outside of it and someone is

being trolled and you're just like dude it's not true or you're like you just want to stop you're pretty good about not intervening though but this little weasel i'm sorry i cut you off mike but yeah instantly oh instantly like basically they could have the best troll in the world going and i'll probably ruin it in about a second without even trying i'm just that dumb no i think you get some kind of like enjoyment out of just ruining it i would say like some of them it makes you happy knowing that me and cj i think you guys is really dumb ones I do. Well, those are the best.

Those are the ones that, like, shouldn't be believable. Those are the ones that are so outlandish. Like, super far. No, and that's what I'm saying. It's like, it's all perspective. I mean, we've talked about this before, but when you convinced Greta that I, like, didn't have a bank account. That was the best one of my favorite.

That was such a good one. I went along with it for two weeks. Thank you. Well, that one's pretty harmless. That's funny. I convinced my girlfriend that Mike didn't believe in bank accounts. Because he had a bunch of cats. Because he had a bunch of cash because he used to be a bartender.

So he had like $200 bucks in cash next to his bed. And I was like, yeah, he doesn't believe in bank accounts. I have to pay him. Oh, Mark, Mark, our buddy Mark, we bought him the watch. He still believes that actually. So he might be listening to this. My favorite five years later. When they both went, doesn't his mom work at a bank?

That's kind of, he saw the inner workings of it. He was like, I don't trust the system. Well, no. And then she asked me that. And then I was like, Yeah, she does. You're not dumb. She works at a bank and I use a bank.

So 90% of the time you're just pulling stuff out of your ass and you're really good at quite literally piling so much shit over the line that you don't know. You don't even want to dig in. So if there is something that it's like someone's being fishy, I mean, like it's a legitimate thing someone's being fishy about. But if you guys Power Ranger up together, and start piling shit on the lie, it's gone, dude.

I mean, it's just, it's impressive. A little scary, but it's impressive. Dude, it's truly one of my favorite things to do. That's what I mean, you guys, everyone knows that you two are cousins, but like, I mean. No, I don't think everyone knows that. I should say, I hope everyone doesn't know that. But I think that's, that's where the dynamics come from. I'm kidding.

Like, they're connected. Yeah. Let me hear some of your guys is fibs. I want to, like, what's a good fib? No, I was trying to think while you were telling you. A juicy story. I got one more good one. So in the ninth grade,

like if you were a hockey player, you'd go into high school, it was like this big thing that all the older kids chewed. So me and my buddy will blank his name. We go and get chew, which was very accessible as like 15. And we're like chewing it, dipping it, whatever.

And it went fine. We must have got like some weak shit. And then we went and did it the next week and got some more. and it was right after hockey practice and I put that thing in holy shit I started buzzing so hard that I threw up all over the parking lot

he had to like drive me home I'm like throwing out the window I get home my parents like what the hell what was what happened you I'm like oh I just ate bad Taco Bell bad Taco Bell and like just went to bed

CJ's got dips stuck in his teeth and shit yeah and I never chewed ever since then good for you which it was honestly probably that's like the best thing that's like getting sick off of that shit right away the one time I tried it too or like the zen the pouch thing was buzzing start throwing up everywhere yeah that's good but i was like buzzing way too hard like i was started like hallucinating i was buzzing so hard at the time

i felt like a pussy but like realistically best thing because a lot of those guys are still addicted to it and now it's like really not that cool if you're like um you know well i mean nowadays same i did the exact same thing too with like the big vapes like the big rig vapes mom the clouds When we were in the college house, like Jake, Ken, maybe you. I think at the time it was, it was myself, Ryan, Jake, Justin, and you. You guys were always ripping these big. That might be the things like the huge clouds, right? And I think I was like a dwee.

I was doing it for maybe five days. And then I was like seeing how much I could like do. Well, I was like to buzz. And then I started just throwing up everywhere and I haven't done it since. Like I remember, of course. this is like Jake's idea, but I mean, we're all participating. He goes, let's just pass it around and take like the biggest rips we can until something happens.

That's what, like no joke, what we did. Okay, well, I found out what happened. Wait, do you guys remember when, when Ken had it? Oh, dude, that might be the funniest thing that has ever happened to date that has never seen the internet. The internet hasn't, well, he couldn't, he freaked out so bad that I deleted it. Yeah, tell the story, tell the story. Oh, I thought we already told this.

Are you sure we haven't told this? Did we? Ken, we told it. All right, long story short, Ken had those vapes where you had to put the juice in. I ordered dog shit flavored vape juice, put it in his vape. He came home, sucked that thing, and immediately knew we did something to it, came up freaking out, like, very mad. And we all were laughing, and then he finally asked what we did do his vape. And we said, it's dog shit.

And he thought we put literal dog shit, like some poxed. poop in his vape and he immediately yelled you know how unsanitary that is and chucked the vape at me and luckily he missed and then i had to buy him a new vape remember when we went to the store what you told the vape guy right yeah and then i like went in i didn't know what i was buying i was like i like thought it was funny and they thought you was going to think it's funny i like tell him the whole prank so so i need to get a vape but i don't know like what i need to get but so anyways long story i tell him the whole story and he goes that's not funny learned real quick you don't mess with a vapors

vape he didn't think it was funny at all he was not amused at all it was such a big deal that I I don't know why but I like actually got scared at how 10 was that I deleted all the video I just deleted the snaps I deleted that I was a different time I don't know why I was so scared it was an early it was easily the top three maddest I've ever seen him luck yeah luckily I guess the that you deleted all of it

Luckily, that scenario lives rent-free in my head. Yeah, it was like upstairs in the loft in my room and we were, yeah. Yeah, I remember it like it was yesterday. Yeah. And how could you forget? It really, yeah, he was really mad. Oh, man. I think, you know how you ever heard like that, oh, I've never had an original thought?

You know, you see TikToks that are like relatable. And then you're like, damn, I do that. I thought I thought I was the only one or whatever. I think I had an original. idea that no one's ever done, I think. Okay. You sure you want to say it right now? Yeah, because I did it already. Why just survive back to school when you can thrive

by creating a space that does it all for you, no matter the size. Whether you're taking over your parents' basement or moving to campus, IKEA has hundreds of design ideas and affordable options to complement any budget. After all, you're in your small space era. It's time to own it. shop now at ikea.ca i didn't i don't have the results of it's like a social experiment i don't know what you'd call it but i'm in the the urinal at tj's and you know a couple other different bars too but i'm in the urinal and i was like oh man these this this one particularly was a little bit dirty

and then i'll say you gotta spit this out you're in the urinals at t j's it's dirty and so then i was like and you know how when you get uh pissed on the toilet rim of a normal toilet if you're courteous maybe not in a public restroom sometimes they're so grotto you don't want to do it but you wipe it off because you're courteous of course what if you put a roll of toilet paper in the urinal and just see what people do so i order hold up so in the urinal no not in the urinal but like you know there's stalls if it's only if there's a stall next to you oh like on top of the urinal no just like urinals here stalls like there's a divider so i got these adhesive toilet paper rolls

and I like I put one on there and put a toilet paper roll on it never saw what people thought of it but I just wanted like I put the toilet paper roll on there I'm like I bet people are like piss in there like you're like I'm supposed to wipe this down after I'm done oh man that's fucking funny dude you should have put some fake

shit in there too that'd be okay I'm liking where that's going too kind of like bring it even further I like both sides of it because I'm like what you know there's like such a thing are we supposed to take a dump yeah yeah there's like such a thing as like a social experiment or a prank where you really never get the reactions of which is kind of that yeah it'd be funny if you waited until the love of the game you waited until someone came in

and then you were like pulling your pants up and facing the wrong way like as if you just did it but then and then you make it like yeah really obvious that you were shitting the urinal but then they see the toilet paper roll and they're like mm-mm so hold up you have done it yeah and you even brought toilet paper all right Well, no, I took one out of there. Yeah, like, I didn't have toilet paper, but I had the thing, which was kind of dumb. Can you imagine how confused the worker were? That's what I'm especially the workers.

Went in to clean it that night, and they were like, hey, Jennifer, when did we start putting, like, the little toilet paper holder adhesive on the... Should I reload that? Or we go back in, yeah, the roll is empty. But I'm basically just going to hit all the local barred restaurants. The toilet paper band it. Yeah. So I guess now people know, but... That is...

That's a pretty original idea, Mike. I guess that was the moral of the story. As dumb as it is, like, has anyone ever done that ever? Put a toilet paper roll in a urinal. I haven't seen it. I haven't seen it either. So I just... Congrats, Mike.

You did it, dude. Thanks. You pioneered something. Man, it feels good to be a gangster. Dude, did you guys see those... I saw it all over TikTok, but those... fishermen that rigged that tournament and put lead weights in like fish fillets inside of those fish in like a tournament like they were playing well multiple i mean over i don't know how long it was

but they said multiple tournaments oh really so they were like cereal well it's like because they must get money i'm assuming it happened and then they were like they have no way of proving it but they were like these guys had to have done it at least they're just like constant winners yeah i mean Because they won so much. And you're, you know, one time, they're going to second guess all your other ways. Yeah. How do they figure it out? Well, they haven't seen the video.

How do they figure it out? I'll pull it up. Yeah. But they literally, they, it was kind of aggressive. The way that the guy like rips. Yeah. Full grown men all in this big fishing tournament. Dude, fishermen do not fuck around.

This is the best part. Is the guy is just standing there watching the guy very aggressively like rip stuff out of this fish? And he's just standing. their like completely neutral expression. There's a whole crowd of people yelling at them. Like, I thought there was a fight. Was there a fight? I was saying the best part is like before they started exposing him

or maybe as they were exposing him, the authorities or whoever's running the thing was like, don't like hurt him because people were basically like, yep, we knew it. You want to get punched in the face? Like they're getting in line basically to like. Was this like a paid event? Yeah.

Like the champion won money or what? they win. I'm not sure about this, but I did see that these guys had won like over $200,000 in fishing tournaments. Holy crap. Pretty big. Oh, so they were like the big dogs. Yeah. Everyone found out that they're, damn. What? It's quite the scheme. I've got on an airplay. Dude, watch these guys. That's the dude. That's the dude. Look how this is his face the entire time. Look, big. I think those are either one or two pound lead balls. He's just standing there like this. He's just like, oh, thank you, sir.

Don't we need a file police report? Don't we need a file police report? People are just yelling. A police report? Every single fucking fish. Every tournament you won. How aggressively he rips the weight out of these fish. He's fucking just sland.

Dude, everyone is riled up. For a good reason, but... Wait, you hear the people in the background. Okay, the people in the background of the best part. Is that a filet? Yeah, they were stuffing other filet. He's just standing there just like this. Why didn't he just leave?

I don't know. I don't even know. Call the cops! He's just standing right there. Talk about embarrassing. Everybody listening to me right now. Wait, Jake, I want you to leave. I don't want anybody to touch these guys.

I want you to put this guy in jail. That is a... I think that is illegal. I mean, to be fair, he is rigging a tournament. Yeah, he's a rigging a tournament. It's a pretty big deal. And I guess not to mention, like, a tournament with serious winnings on the line. Holy shit.

Okay, so... I mean, and that's the crazy part. They were blatantly. cheating all their fish couldn't we all fucking knew it couldn't they just look at the fish and be like there's no way this thing weighs this much it must just be that tight of a race

you know like a pound or two either way look the dude in the flip-blops that's a walleye it's cooked and everything still warm what happened to the guys to be honest I don't I actually don't I don't know what is he's Sit there and just watch. He's like a five-year-old kid.

Look up. Look up. What was his last name? There's no way this guy's social media after this. He deleted everything. Just look up like his, like a news article. Okay. What happened to Walleye Cheaters? Boat and trailer seized.

Not surprised because that's apparently what they won. They won in one of their tournaments. They won a boat and trailer. I think they seized it. They came and took it. I don't know if that was the winning for that one, but they seized it because it was a winning for a previous tournament. And they were like, we can't.

You can't have. of this knowing what you cheat one time and even if the rest of them were all credible dude i mean it's not a good look is well moral of the story here this is incredibly entertaining is it okay i mean absolutely not but like what do you expect i guess it's like it's a fishing tournament that like what if the dude was just what if he wasn't even that big of a fisherman and he was just like this i learned how to cheat in the fishing tournaments and then that's fun yeah um we we were actually thinking about doing a bit where we went and like infiltrated a fishing tournament and then we went and just

like found out who the most like hardo guys were and then we went to fuck with them and we like mess with them but like butt our boats like right up next to them and start casting in the exact same spot i don't know i've never been in a fishing tournament but i can't imagine i think they'd try to fight us dude at least there'd be someone there that would if we start oh dude after watching that video yeah they would be hot maybe it's a little bit different around Was that local? Or like, where was that? Lake Erie?

You're trying to like, provide for your family, make some money. You're doing this as a professional. You're dedicating your whole life to this craft. And then these guys are coming and cheating it, taking basically winnings from you. What I did see is they'd accumulated several hundred thousand dollars worth of prize. But nothing yet, no charges, nothing like that that I've seen someone. I don't know if there's anything illegal about that, though. No, you're rigging a tournament.

Like, it's for sure got to be illegal. It's like, it'd be like, I mean, I feel like you. Yeah, would you get in legal trouble if you, like, rigged a golf tournament somehow? I think you could get banned. Yeah. Like, it's like cheating in a football game. You don't go to jail.

True, there's fines, but you don't go to jail. Yeah. It's got to be. Yeah, the people in the back. Put them in jail. I don't know. I feel like the DNR would get involved of some sort. Something like that.

I feel like, yeah. Yeah. I bet they would. I don't think the DNR have anything to do with tournament fishing. Mm-hmm. I have to, dude. Are you serious? They have to.

You think they're like the fucking ref or what? No. I feel like they have some kind of involvement. They call the DNR. In a situation like that, I doubt it's like the cops. I don't know what the DNR would be involved in that for. Unless it's like some kind of abuse of how much fish you can take or like shoving them down their throat.

Maybe they could get like maybe some kind of inhumane type of thing. Yeah. Fish do kind of get to go by that. There's not many rights for fish. Not saying there should be. Yeah. But also, there's really not, you know. There's really, you know what?

Listen, man, I've already done it for the turtles. I can't do anymore. Yeah, true. Dude, I asked Ryan before this podcast if he had any fresh idiots of the week. And you said no. However, those were your idiots of the week? Those guys might have taken it. For sure.

Those are idiots of the week, man. Dude, I bet they're getting roasted every which way. Yeah, I can't be killed. We're not even in the fishing game. Yeah, exactly. We're roasting them because they were like, I marry you because I thought you were a good fisherman. Yeah. That'd be a sad truth to find out.

I bet they weren't telling their wives that they were putting lead balls in the fish. Because obviously being a good fisherman is what gets you the girls. Yeah. You know? Absolutely. I'd imagine. What do you mean? You imagine it's the truth.

I guess I don't know. I'm not a fisherman. Then again, I don't have chicks flocking, so maybe that's why. You got to get out. Start casting some rods and stuff. Shit. Or reels. Casting reels.

Okay. I feel like, I feel like enough. time has passed, the waters are calm again, can we tell the story of when we got fined with our dirt bike track? Oh, I think so, but I think it, as long as we just tell the story. We did, we did wrap it up. Okay. So I think, I think we're good. All right. Okay. So beginning of June, we had this dirt bike track built over on our property and we had Rich come out and we basically just told him all right we want a bunch of jumps but nothing like too extreme you know so we can hit it on all these different things and he's like all right i got it we're like oh also we want a pond

he's like okay great well then we come back like the next day after he started he's basically like moving the earth and a lot of it like basically just reconstructing the entire property and we're like oh shit okay he's like we're doing a lot well then he moves builds the track builds the pond ended up just being like moving a lot more dirt than we thought but we were like uh well about two weeks passes by after it was finished after it's finished yeah and uh we get a call from the county saying um we had a local complaint about your guys's track can we come on out and check it out so the county comes out they look at it kind of tell us like all right um this was like the building codes people right well they first and foremost said do you have a permit we said

you know long story short no I didn't know I didn't know I didn't know I didn't know I didn't know I as far as you were going to build you had to have a permit because we didn't put up pushing some dirt we didn't put up any actually built actual buildings so long story short we apply for the permit then they give us the permit and everything and we're like okay great about two weeks goes by Ryan gets a call hey So and so from the MPCA, it's MPCA, right? MNPCA. No, it's MPCA.

Minnesota Pollution Control, MN. No, it's MPCA. MPCA. Sorry. Hey, so and so from the MPCA, Minnesota Pollution Control Agency. Agency. We had a complaint about your guys' dirt bike track

from somebody in the area. Anonymous. Anonymous. Yeah, we can't tell you who. We're like, of course. And can we come out and check out what you guys have? there so they come out and at this point like basically the entire thing was like grown back over with grass and uh we had like the pond so it was kind of like holding all the water from like the

rain and everything we thought it was like pretty solid yeah we thought it was pretty solid right and then they basically inform us of these certain things that if you move over an i believe an acre or you disrupt an acre or over an acre of land then you have to have these different permits and things again we had no idea if you guys are watching this you plan on like building a dirt bike track or doing anything in minnesota uh use us as an example here but let me pull up our violations there was five and before wait wait wait wait but before you say that i just the one thing that was being kind of doomed upon us with over the phone call was said exactly three times in a brief phone call. This could be a $10,000 per day or per fine per day. And that was said three times.

And like, oh, that's scary. We were like looking at multiple hundreds of thousands. Well, no, just wait. Just wait. So the first one, hire an individual trained in SWPPP development. So that's rainwater. Basically, an engineer comes out and tells you where, what you've moved, where the water is going to go. Got it. So that's the first one. Submit a complete application to obtain coverage under the permit for the site. So get a permit for it. Stabilize the exposed soil of the interior of the track. So basically anything that didn't have grass grown on it was supposed to be stabilized with like hydroceed or straw.

Yeah, something like that. So that was a third. And then have a trained individual come out every seven days. or within 24 hours of a rainfall and then obtain a trained individual for overseeing the implications of and revising the amended amendments of the SWPP and individuals performing the inspection. So basically somebody to come out and make sure that everything is getting fixed, right? So five violations.

And each violation could have been $10,000 a day. So $50,000 a day since the start of construction. And I calculated out it was like one, two, three, four, five, six weeks. So six weeks. So six weeks times, it's like millions of dollars just from building a dirt bike track on your field. 50,000 times. My calculation.

$2.1 million. $2.1 million. $2.1 million was we kind of knew that odds are it wasn't going to be a worst case scenario situation. But we all sat there together, quietly. staring at each other and went, did we just have a $2.1 million fuck up? Like, it was, it was scary. Yeah, it was very scary.

If it was 1% of that, those $21,000, we're like, geez, that's an expensive dirt bike track. So we're scared. You know, like when, yeah, when they peg or whatever, let's say you get caught smoking weed and they say that could be up to five years in jail. It's never actually that much. It just never really is. I mean, sometimes. So, but they kept saying it.

They came out to inspect the land and they kept throwing this $10,000 per day. So it was ingrained. in our heads and then we sat down and went, why'd they say that so much?

Back to the podcast. Fine per day thing. Yeah, it was, it was like a terrifying time. We're all hoping like, okay, well, if we're like compliant and we get everything fixed super fast, maybe they'll be lenient.

But like, what is lenient? 10% of that? It's still, what? Well, 10% would have been $200,000. $200,000. So, anyway, they come out, they give us all these things, and they, you know, tell us the issues, the fines. And then...

It went all right, right? Yeah, the guy was super nice about it, too. And obviously, he could tell, like, we weren't doing it intentionally. And it wasn't, like, our third violation of doing it. And we were like, look, we just wanted to build a dirt bike track. We've never built anything ever. We've never moved this much dirt before. We didn't know.

We didn't even do it, really. We didn't know. Yeah, it'd be one thing, too, if we were to hire, like, a professional team, because usually someone, like, professional, like a construction crew, they would at least suggest it. They have to know about that. Oh, yeah. Yeah.

So we were just like, look, we just had a buddy come out, kind of explained it to them. But, yeah, they, like, came back. And, like, I think they said that again, like, a couple times, like, well, just letting you know, like, this is what it could be. But if you're, like, compliant, we'll take that into consideration. So we're, like, bugging about it for basically a month. We get everything done super fast or as quick as we can. And we're dealing with other contractors for, like, hydro C2.

And they're all busy and we're like, look, we got to get this done ASAP. So we did everything that they needed. And then like a month goes by and we're just hoping, okay, please, please, please, you know, take all that into consideration. And then they came back and I think they find us, what, $700? No, it was like 1,700. Oh, was it? Yeah.

Still. But that was pretty nice to them. Still. They were, yeah. You know, obviously they got a job to do and they understood that it was a mistake on our part. We literally didn't know what we were doing. And we learned a lesson from it and, you know, they didn't freaking be pulling permits. And that's, I think sometimes the beauty was nice of like being, I mean, I hate to call ourselves clueless, but being clueless enough where you don't even have to lie, you know, you didn't actually.

You didn't ever, for one second, consciously, like, commit or walk over someone's rules or laws. Like, I mean, we just didn't know. Yeah. If we went and, like, built a housing development out there, I'd be like, yeah, I guess I can see how we'd probably have to do some planning. Yeah. But for, you know, a bunch of, basically, since most of our jumps are tabletops, a bunch of piles of dirt, the pond got pretty extensive. But, yeah, we just didn't know. I guess it goes down to who's our weasel of a neighbor.

I know. calling us into the county and then when like the track doesn't get dozed the next day they're like all right who's next who's next who else could we call them into and the worst part is so they have to remain anonymous but like we had to pay actually the most expensive part was paying all the contractors to come out and spray the hydro seed and lay the straw tarp and all that stuff like that shit was like four grand so it's kind of bullshit that someone can complain and go anonymous when they cost you that type of money It is also interesting, like, who knows what the MPCA is? I didn't.

I didn't. And to call them. Right. Someone must have told them to call them or something, but I'm glad we're good now. I mean, we have a, we use that track like every week. Yeah. So, like literally, like once or twice a week probably. So it's not that extensive to really be complaining about.

I mean. I'm not complaining. I was. No, I was. I was, though. Oh, right. Yeah, damn. Quite a lesson.

learned for sure yeah i mean always check with your local permits now i know i want to put an approach we got to get a permit for that too right we do yeah i was like right you can't you probably can't just build an approach in a ditch no can't it's so easy to get a permit too and it's like relatively cheap for what it could be if you don't get the permit and then they hit you with the fine too yeah i feel like most of the time if you're proactive on it again we've never had to deal with it in our fucking life. Yeah. Well, another thing I was like,

so when all that was happening, I guess moral of the story is like, it brought us all down. You know, we were all just bummed. It's like that happens. And then you get this impending like, what is going to be our punishment.

And it definitely like slows us down a little bit and makes us way more apprehensive, which sucks. Goes back to what I said in the beginning, dude, no one you're in trouble is the fucking worst. Yeah. It's just the worst.

Yeah. And it causes you to act differently. act differently. Yeah, it's even not necessarily like the punishment most of the time. It's just the guilt. It's just the guilt and the headache of dealing with it and how long does it like loom over you on other kind of depressing news. Kind of became a pull tabs addict. Oh, that is sad to hear. Are you down bad? I've had a couple wins that have brought me back up, but I don't know what came over me. me. I don't either. I'll tell you exactly what came over me. Me and Ken and C.J. were out to dinner

the other day. And me and Ken, I don't know why, but we were like, let's just go in like 20 bucks, 20 bucks, right? And then next thing you know, we're both in like 200 bucks. Didn't pull a single winner. CJ's waiting for us to be done so that he can go in on it. And we weren't going to, I wasn't going to let that happen, you know, him steal our money like that. So we can't go. I learned that from Ken. Yeah, that's Ken's motive. And he wins. And he wasn't going to, I wasn't going to let that. And he wins a lot he waits till you're done well yeah sometimes but yeah he once he sees that you're done playing he goes in if you didn't win and he cleans up polite what is polite about that i'd say that's the polite way to do it he waits but one time there was a little bit of blurred line that's why it was like

all right i'm gonna jump in on this and then to usually other people that are like well we weren't like done for the night well then how does that work yeah well if you don't know them then there's no such thing but it's called jump in the box is that what someone did to you Uh, no, no, I just self-sabotage and just lost it all myself. Yeah, but then me and Tint were at dinner the next night and I thought there's no way that I could lose two nights in a row, you know, like any good gambler. I think you're right about that since you're hanging with Tint. Yeah, I think that he'd be my lucky charm.

Again, it was not going good at all. And then it went really good. We won 500 and it was electric. It was electric. For how excited we were, it made out for all the money lost. So did you come out ahead? I don't know. I don't know.

We would do the math because we didn't want to know. We were like just high-fiving and we were like, we're going to take our win and we're going to walk. The best part about that was that you were in, I mean, there's certain bars you could be at and win big and just scream and no one would really care. They go nice. And then you guys were in like a sushi restaurant, like quiet.

The people around you were, there was no noise. Just a little soft Yeah, I definitely wouldn't I wouldn't recommend Anyone gets into it But neither It was fun Some people that play are losers

I think all of them Especially Evan Especially Evan Evan quit playing pole tabs He's giving us a stick guy right now You know it's funny because I think When you guys do that

There's no worse usage of your money I go Oh these suckers They lose every time I watched you guys dump in all the money and I recently signed up for this thing it's called CoinTracker and it tracks what my crypto investments are doing

when you know, being a good kid investing my money into something that can grow and flourish. I got a freaking update the other day. The market value, I don't even know. I didn't want to say this. So did you just get this app that's going to tell you your whole?

portfolio the whole portfolio up and down i didn't i don't know i you don't even really to say ryan's like we might end up cutting this he edits it so i did buy a lot crypto i i've went pretty deep on on on crypto this is going to give a little insight to where all my money is the market value of my crypto is 16,838 dollars this isn't sounding good okay i'm scared my return on investment is negative $31,330. You've lost $31,000. I have lost $31,000 investing in cryptocurrency. Oh, wait, hold up.

Is that how much you have invested in or from the peak? No, that is how much money I have lost. I'm speechless. I have, like I have lost that amount of money. That's pretty tough. Down 65% in the last year. The worst part is you could have bought like a cool car. Mm-hmm.

And like totally had, you could have bought a Lamborghini and not lost that on it. Your Camaro would be going up in value more than. Yeah. So another thing is that are you like, now I wouldn't call you like a sneaky investor. Obviously you just do it on your own time on your own phone. Just a bad one. You know what I'm saying?

But there's people who invest and talk about it too much. There's people who invest and talk about it. about it and then there's you know people who quietly invest and I just know I knew at one time you were pretty heavy in it is as at least as heavy as these two because you guys talked about it not too much but uh I didn't realize the extent of the investing I didn't know you kept going right yeah yeah that's the thing is they say buy the dip I just I just yeah I kept buying bottle out of dip in Ryan bought a lot of dips yeah well here's this how about this this will make you feel a little bit better I saw this today I'm kind of

So an NFT that Logan Paul bought for $623,000 in 2021 is now worth $10. So he lost way more than you, but he also has way more money than you. Dude, I thought that was going to be like... So it's probably comparable. Yeah, probably is. Yeah. I thought that was going to be like a positive story. And I'm like, high risk, high reward.

But that was no, clearly the opposite. Dude, I think NFTs and I, I, maybe I'll end up biting my tongue later on but I never quite understood them it's not the picture it's the utility I get that and I recently but no one ever follows through

with their utility that they promise well I also I don't always say all this stuff like oh we're going to do this and if you own this NFT and you're part of our our group you're going to get access to this and it always just crumbles to the ground they have millions of dollars and you never hear a peep from them again

and you're left from nothing yeah it's definitely ridiculous and most of the projects are totally going to flop. I don't even know if it's the utility behind it, but it's definitely like, I still think there is something there. Like if a basketball or a football game ticket on your phone is an NFT versus just a scanable QR code. They have that, dude. Like when I go to, went to the MGK concert, I had my tickets on my phone.

As an NFT? As an NFT? You can call whatever you want It's just a digital ticket That's not what I'm saying That's not what I'm saying Yeah You can get a scannable QR code

Ticket which is what you had Or like something like an NFT And if it's like the best football game Ever then they're saying that ticket Might be worth something someday It's like having a framed stub or something like that Flame Stub if you were to go and watch Michael Jordan play in a basketball game

is record-breaking game or something like that or like the miracle play for the Vikes when Stefan Diggs caught that one-handed maybe that's worth something as an NFT so it's like I'm not really vouching for them because they are definitely ridiculous and especially like the stupid projects that Logan Paul like lost $670,000

he's supposed to was picking the good ones too but I don't know I feel like there is something at least there and this is one of many examples of or the more unique ones. But I guess I just recently thought about this in like the last month. Okay, so you remember Dogecoin.

That was all hype. And NFTs are basically pumped up by hype. And I don't think there's anything wrong with that, but that's what it is. Hype. You know, when Dogecoin got hyped up, some people were making crazy money. And when an NFT gets hyped up,

some people make crazy money. Speaking of hype, I thought I ate my words on the last podcast a couple of weeks ago when the Vikings lost. But now they're winning again, dude. Yes. It's our year.

And I think it's our year. After four wins, we're definitely allowed. I think, are we allowed to say that? Five, dude, we're five weeks in. We're four in one, dude. We're top of the NFC North. We're going to win. We're going to win it all.

The real question, though, is this the end of, like, how much deeper is this recession going to go, you know? Because we're totally in a recession right now. Oh, I thought, are we still talking about the Vikings? That was a flip, CJ. We're talking about... Can you imagine the Vikings start winning the whole economy goes to shit? No, I'm talking back to, like, investing, I guess.

I wanted to get that in, but everyone's talking. No, it's okay. We're good. I don't want to see that was even bad. Fucking, dude, I'll trade the economy for my bikes to win. Sometimes, like, I don't get something in, and I usually just bag it. But I feel like that in past. No, you were just fine.

No, no, no. It's definitely within the window. It was just so funny. I think we're going, I think it's getting a lot deeper. It's going to hit the fan, dude. I guarantee after the floor. No, shit's going to hit the fan. Yeah, shit, we'll be hitting the fan.

The recession won't, though. It's going down. No, the recession's going to hit the fan and just explode. I don't know. And then as they do, the Vikings are going to the Super Bowl. That's stupid. Anyway, no, I think it's going to get way worse. Really?

I think it definitely will get worse. How much worse can he? get it's already pretty damn bad is it i think it is if ken was in here he'd know all the like actual terms he'd be like oh this is the worst thing they're just not talking about it type of thing i think it's gonna get way worse and they're definitely not talking about it it doesn't seem that bad as chaos yet i don't think it's weird because i think all the i guess i mean what do you expect it to it seems like the chaos lately has gone kind of down but the recession has gone stronger the Inflation's got stronger.

Interest rates are going up like crazy. Like I just bought a rental condo and had like 6.7% on the interest, which is super high. Yeah, I was the last one was what, like three? It's pretty high. Double what, yeah.

Yeah. Ken, he just walked in, in a short answer, are we in a recession? And is it bad? Yes? Yes. Is it really bad or is it only moderately bad?

It's bad right now? Is it going to get worse? No. Ken says, who knows? Should we panic? Buy the fucking dip. I just was talking about that. You've been buying the dip 30 grand ago.

Ken walks in and says, yes, we're in a recession. Yes, it's bad. Ryan says, what should we do? Ken goes, buy the dip. Dude, I have so much queso and salsa and guacamole. He's got all the dip. So are you still buying crypto, Ryan? Chicken dip.

No, the last. bit that I bought. It was on like the 4th of July or something like that. Third of July. I bought I bought Ethereum at like 915. Oh, that doesn't seem dumb. Great buy. Yeah, it doesn't seem dumb. I mean, so you've had some wins in there too. Yeah, but the coin that I bought previous before that was Ethereum at 4,000. So. Oh, okay. You just got to hold on. Yeah. We'll just ride it out. Yeah. Ride the wave. Recessions are where like the majority of the wealth is created. Our recessions is a scam created by rich people to make people more rich.

Maybe. Ken says, sure. Recessions are where a majority of the wealthy people excel. That's true, yeah. Like in the crash 2008, a bunch of people got rich. A bunch of people lost everything. A bunch of people lost everything. If someone's making money, someone's losing it.

Speaking of which... So who's making all the money with your guys' poll tabs? It's a charity donation. Luckily. I started saving the losing tabs and giving them to the accountant to write them off. They're charitable donations. You already filled up six totes.

Taxes are going to be low this year, along with my bank account. My buddy can, he doesn't even pay him. Oh, is it that you avoid him? God's giving us a look like stop talking about. Who is the one C-boy who forgot to pay their taxes for you? Maybe he doesn't know yet. So this is so funny, you guys. So I don't know why all my, all the tax documents go to my mom's.

I just need to change the address, but they go there. So she gets them to me when I see her, and she hands me a letter. She just got married last weekend, too. It was kind of crazy. But she hands me this letter as we're at the groom's dinner and was like, ah, hey, I've been meaning to give this to you. Guess what it was? She's like, it's from the IRS.

I'm like, that's never fun. you know it's the way she was coming off and i was like she's like so i think they're auditing you no no way yes way they're auditing you yeah fuck no but i mean it's it's it like there's nothing to they're not gonna audit you guys they're auditing me for because that was before remember that was when i had my own tax guy and it specifically it doesn't even just says um specifically for like on your 1040 from 2020 line 11 like i haven't even got chance to look that up yet but because she just gave it to me but i'm being audited and what that really is is like you said yeah i don't know i'm like it's so crazy that they again you know how they

know everything like if you're paying enough or not enough or whatever and they know everything but then they're like hey yeah you fucked up so like uh you know figure whatever out you messed up and then let us know and we'll let you know if it's and we'll see you in jail yeah so what year was that So 20, so that was before we had, uh, Chris, yeah, doing our taxes and I don't know. I haven't gotten a chance to look at what line 11 is yet, but what the, damn, Mike, that was such a cool delivery. Yeah, and it was really, as a cucumber. So then, are you bugging? Dude, Ken is sweating in his boots right now.

He's the one who doesn't pay in at all. Ken is like, oh, shit, they can do that? I mean, am I like, cons? It's not like this, um, in the back of my head at all. all times, but when I think about it, like, right now, I'm getting, like, red, and I'm like, I do have to, like, figure that out. That's the worst part. You call them, they don't answer.

Like, I mean, straight up. I'm not making that up. You call them, again, they don't answer, or you sit on hold or whatever. It's like, well, I guess they did hire 87,000 new IRS agents. And they got you. Yeah, hopefully we can get this figured out quick. I think all of us are slightly nervous. What are they doing with 87,000 new IRS agents?

Boston people. I don't know. Left and right. Dude, I just had, like, a flash in my head, the title of the podcast. Yep. Yep. It was going to be our, like, $2.1 million fine for the track, but fuck, I guess. I mean, if Mike is going to jail with Ken.

And then it was, there was like a small part of me that was like, damn, I'm getting audited. Pretty crazy. I mean, I'm talking like 1%, but. Wow. Well, Mike. That is, that is slightly worth. Well, I'm going to go. Is there any way

where you get his name off the business? Just kidding. Yeah, it's like, like, CJ being on the insurance. For driving. If it definitely became a problem. It's the same as Mike being on the company for paying taxes.

Mike, all you got to pay your taxes, man. CJ's been getting after me like in like a pretty mad tone. Oh. For not driving fast enough. No. he just drives so slow.

I go five miles per hour over the speed limit and that is not enough for him. We went, we were in his Lamborghini and we left Haydays before all of you guys and we somehow ended up showing up last.

You guys were in trucks all in large trailers. I was driving a 40 foot RV pulling a trailer. Yeah. And how the frick did we? We stopped a Taco Bell. Yeah.

Maybe they go faster than me. I don't know five people for a long time. I go five miles per hour over the speed limit. I was just like, we're in a Lamborghini right now and you can't drive at least a little faster

like there's certain spots where you can go fast there's a little spots where you shouldn't go fast what's a little faster going to do get us home five minutes before made up great time with these guys don't speed run red lights I didn't stop once dude what were they going to do I'm not saying

driving wrong it's just like I couldn't believe pretty mad about it I couldn't believe how slow he was driving it was like to the books I'm like you're in a Lambo right now. We can't even... Five miles per hour

over the speed limit. So you're going 60 and a 55. Yeah. You're not going to get pulled over then. Everyone's going 60 and 55. I'm not saying you need to go fast, fast. I'm just saying like,

there were certain spots where it was like, okay, we could maybe go a little faster. Like, we don't need to putts here. But... Did I just experience? I just... Okay, but you do you realize

what would happen if I were to get a speeding ticket with a Lamborghini on my insurance? at 23 years old and a speeding ticket. I feel like it wouldn't really be that bad. I don't think it would be that bad. Yeah, I think you think it's like, I think you think it's like such a bad consequence

that you drive so careful. What's your guys' monthly like car payment for insurance? Payment. So depends on what vehicle. For your GTR. $125.25 bucks. Wow. Mine is $4.50 without a single speeding ticket.

Probably because you're driving a fucking house. on the road. Yeah, so exactly. Imagine how much worse it could be. I don't, honestly. Mine's 4.10. I drive a fucking Camaro. You guys act like I'm a hassle of the insurance.

I'm assuming the cabaret is pretty much. Well, you are. You are terrible. You have like the worst driving record of anyone. Cheapest insurance. That is pretty good. Good for you. I don't know, dude.

I have like. See if I have any discounts. I don't know. I got him pulled out. He's got like four speeding tickets in the last year. 125 for the GTR. I think it's like 115 for the. for the Evo, which is even crazier.

The Mitsubishi Evo is like a quarter of the value of the GTR. And it's literally $10 cheaper. So cheap. And then my Raptor is, I don't even know what the month to comes out to. But it's like $700 a year. So even less than that. So I mean, I was just like, it is really cheap. Dude, the other day, CJ said to me, I don't know, maybe it was, I don't know why you guys,

you're talking about basically this. CJ goes, all I'm saying is like, if you drive. 55 and a 55 like yeah i can't hang with you man i'm not i'm not i'm not about that bro i feel like everything else we do is pretty risky so i'm not going to just drive like we were getting passed by everyone and then we got passed by our buddies in a motor home pulling a trailer no and that left after us and i was like no they didn't no they didn't physically no at all we got home before we got home before you i would just chalk it up if i were you and just just say, I don't want a ticket.

And I think the way you drive is not going to get you a ticket. Wonderful. But other than that, I mean, like. This is the thing, though, is I haven't gotten a ticket in quite a while. And I agree in the five over rule. There's times, maybe coming into a neighborhood, maybe even bump it a little bit less than five over, you know? Might be Jenny walking her dog down the street in the middle of the fucking county highway. I have beef over that.

But, okay. Or. And there's times? You get the downhill on the interstate. You can see for the next eight miles, you go, all right, maybe we'll bump it up to nine over. And you just, 20 over. Well, no, that's, that's even a lot. I'd say 20 over.

And then you just, you just get a little bit up. But it's, it's the like constant under, under five over or under the speed limit that really can irritate when you're in a hurry. It's just the like, are we not trying? I got mad at Slim, Evans' buddy Slim, because he was driving like under the speed limit. And I was like, Slim. let's go we got 18 hours he was like I don't want to get a ticket got places to go yeah I got shit to do

there's no one out there the road there's not no one you can see you've got nothing to worry about I think I think there's logic behind both yeah and I'm pretty neutral I like to speed I'm not saying you're doing anything wrong I just couldn't believe it that we were driving so slow in a Lamborghini

I hopped in the Lamborghini because I was like we're getting home quick I'm trying to get out of here well now you learn your lesson to never ride with me. Yep. And that's why you should never ride with Ben. Even if he's driving a super car.

You're going to be, you're going to get there. You're going to get there around two to three minutes slower, but you're going to be safe the whole time. And he won't let you eat chicken wings. That's the other thing. Mike hops in my car with chicken wings, bone in chicken wings, sauce all over the place.

And I just go, hey, can you maybe not eat chicken wings in my car? And apparently that was just the biggest deal. No. I mean, you were pretty salty about it. No, I just, that was my first time ever bringing it up. I couldn't believe that you would even think of asking that.

Dude, it was so funny. Bone in wings. It was like a social experiment. That's like the messiest thing you could eat. On a plate too, so they were just sliding all over the wings. I was picturing in a box. No, no, no. Your hands are going to be all sticky and saucy.

So you're going to have to touch the door handle. or something i wouldn't have touched the door handle how are you planning on getting out bro wipe them all over myself before i touch the door handle still not like clean i want no they were uh they i had some leftover wings and like you know everything's running gun around here so i just cooked them especially for you because you're a couple steps behind most of the time yep and uh so i mean it was just ben and i here and he's like all right we got to go to fargo and i just cooked these i hadn't eaten yet and i tossed maybe two in and then i was like eh and maybe he'll let me eat him in there if but he didn't even let me explain it but I was like

if I explain myself and I'm like hey listen I'll be really careful I'm hungry or yeah if I said it was like dude fuck off I'm hungry but uh I went in there and you're just like I'm not dude and then I'm like but okay so if I like you know I brought the paper towel get food later and then that was it that was it that's tough too because it's like really even if you did spill a little water clean it right up i would oh and that's also not my very if i if i spilled i would have like yeah i'd have been like dude why'd you let me yeah whatever why'd you let me do that that's for you to fucking said mike no i would not but micha spills seriously ben why did you let me do that you were supposed to protect me from the situation

dude that you oh you got to put push this picture up on the podcast because i think you guys would enjoy it because it's so cringy but the the well i just put on my story but basically the me and like the monster shirt and the monster hat and like the monster skateboard and like green pants posing with the skateboard like and then i captioned like why didn't anyone stop me so i think about my transitions yeah yeah exactly like you were on like the badass side and you were kind of on the nerdy side but still we both should have been stopped someone needs intervene you guys were on the extremes of both yeah i shouldn't say badass i should say punk

yeah a punk or whatever but it's like just typical skater kid and it's like you could have been like a tumbler boy with that yeah almost remember tumbler and I was like I almost look like I know what I'm doing if people knew how bad I skated they'd be like that'd be the worst part you carrying around that skateboard

can't even skate you're pretty good skater now though no that's what yeah I that was okay but I got good enough to be dressing that good not good enough to be wearing monster I always think about high school Mike and I resort to picturing him wearing like purple skinny jeans. I mean

Did you have purple skinny jeans? Yeah. Oh, you did? Yeah. Yeah. It's okay. Hold that picture up too. Yeah, if we can find it. Yeah, I would wear like a white flannel and purple skinny jeans and like a rogue status shirt. I probably skate to school from like my car. Oh, okay. I was going to say you're just pushing down a gravel road. Yeah, dude, I skated to school. It was either drive my tractor or skate to school.

How many times do you drive your tractor? I drove it once for driver your tractor to school day. Was that actually a day? Yeah. Really? Drive your tractor to school day. How many people would pull up?

For FFA week? Dude, 20, 25, let's say. Did anyone drive their lawnmower? Yeah. Yeah. Oh, yeah. People in town would drive their lawnmower. So that's kind of fun.

What about like a full-on combine? No one ever did that. That would be odd. Can you drive your combine to bring a tractor to school day? Because that'd be cool. I think you could. Should bring, should have brought like a fertilizer

one of those things that sprays the grass then you could have had people driving underneath it that'd be a sweet video shot just like driving down the road we do that we go under it big tractor meetup I've been meaning so long for my grandpa gave me like a really old John Deer tractor I've been meaning so long to get it in a video

and just do something dumb with it not like ruin it or anything just a collectible like yeah not definitely not ruin it but you know like very have like a tug off with like sentimental sentimental sentimental not ruin it I know

let's whistle and diesel this shit sentimental sentimental dude I've been messing up words and the first person that corrects me usually is Ryan I didn't say anything there I know but you wanted

I did I wanted to if Ken wasn't and then Kennell followed it up very quickly and then Mike will just be the cherry asshole on top dude honestly I think that's good for you if you were that's fun you know

No, I know. It's funny. Someone's got to. It makes me feel better because you guys do the exact same thing to see J too. I mean, yeah, basically, like, if anyone messes up a word, the normal thing to do is like. I think that's what a good friend would do, though. Maybe our delivery isn't always the best.

I just don't like it when we're like in something very serious trying to like get something done. And you have to make a big deal about one of us saying a word wrong. If it even is pronounced slightly wrong, you're like It's pretty juvenile It's just like bro, like let's just carry on We got some shit to do here And we're over here critiquing and how you talk You're right. It is, it's pretty juvenile

I was trying to spell Acknowledge Yeah, just this morning And I was just about I was just in a rush and I was just gonna I knew it was spout wrong I was just about to send him I was like I just don't want to give Ryan any ammo

No I don't do the group chat anymore I literally look at up on Google. I literally looked up I just like, oh, right, of course. That's how you spell acknowledged. And I went and correct it. So if you scroll back to my earliest message, I think I texted at like 7.01, I was like, none of these people are even acknowledging me. Someone else has to text them.

And I had to double check that word. And I did think of you more so. That is unfortunate. I wish you didn't think of me in such a negative way. But like, I don't think it's fucking embarrassing. Like, if one day you're doing the today show after we've done something good and you're up there and you're like, oh, we would 100%. If it was me or CJ, we would 100%. try and say something that's like a little bit smart so careful i wouldn't even try to say something smart

i just would know unless i really know what i'm talking about but yeah i mean no on the bright side now i know i know how to spell acknowledge which i think i already did know it just kind of slipped my mind did there's some words that i was in a rush i wasn't thinking in a negative way i just was like i just want to like get my point across and keep it going i don't want to have to like go on this whole tangent about how i don't know how to spell acknowledge i don't yeah i don't think we do in the group chat anymore we used to i know unless it's absurd which you know happens sometimes i can't control myself if it's just absurdly spell absurd wrong a b s u rd nice um but acknowledge is a good like example let's just say uh this is how we handle it like absolute dicks so ryan or c j says like ignolage or something

and then in a conversation they're they're just talking they're talking they're talking It could even be a serious situation And then Ben and I would look at each other and go Ignolage And we would just like say it back to each other And then Yeah we're just being bullies We could be in like the most time crunch situation though

Where it's like someone could be fucking hanging off a cliff I'm like help save him And you guys be like He said this word He said him I said you know Like save him Fucking Ken's hanging off a cliff

At least we're keeping things light around here. I just royally messed up a word today. I can't think of what it was. It was bad, though. It was so bad. I can't remember. I think CJ might have even tried it on that one.

I didn't say shit. I'll try to write down tomorrow's fuck up. Okay. All right. Should we wrap? Yeah, we can wrap it up. Beautiful time, boys. That was fun.

Feels good to be back on here. Yes, I'm with the boys. That was. Thanks for listening and watching. We'll be back next week and the week after that. And if we get to 150K, we're going to have Evan on and he's going to speak. He's going to speak. He did a great job on the last podcast.

He said three things. He did. And you know what? The first podcast that we ever did, I didn't talk either. I know the feeling. The less you talk, the harder it gets to say a word. I feel for him. He did a great job.

He's a good kid. 150K. He'll speak. Beautiful. End and out. Beautiful. Mow-W-W-W-W-W!
