Home insurance with Bel Air Direct is simple.
Much simpler than using a smart speaker.
Hey smart speaker, search dinner music.
Okay, pulling search history.

Stop. How to uncry.
Get simple smart home insurance.
Bel Air Direct. Insurance simplified.
Hello folks and hey Bear. You're talking about all that.
Yeah, the beginning.
If you're watching this, this is a, we put, there's a five year anniversary.
It's hard to believe.
Hard to believe that it was five years.
And so we did a Best Of.
I think people love the Best Ofs. I think they're always perfect things to if you're trying to get someone into the podcast.
Yep. Best ofs are the perfect way to start. And if you don't, the alternative is no episode. Yes.
Enjoy it. Yeah, that's true. Yeah, if you're mad. Yeah. Yeah, we do this because we
kill because we care.
We could have just done a regular episode, though.
But now we wanted to take some time off.
Yeah, no, we enjoy the best of none of this.
None of this that you see right here will be in it.
We love you. Yeah.
All right. What's up everybody? This is Nate Barghetti. This is the first episode of
the Nate Land podcast. I did a podcast a long time ago, uh, very, very long time ago,
right when podcasts were getting big.
And then we stopped it. It was basically like, if you like got a tip about Google and then you were
like, ah, let's get out of it.
Uh, I mean, it was like two or 2010 or something.
I don't know.
So, but now we're doing it again.
I mean, it was like 2010 or something. I don't know. So, but now we're doing it again. COVID has forced me into a podcast because I can't do anything. So we're doing it here. We're in
Nashville, Tennessee. This is the first one. I'm excited to do a show. I don't know exactly what
this show is going to end up being. It's just us hanging out, couple comics.
Let me introduce you to the comics that are in here.
I got Brian Bates, who's on the road with me a lot.
And Aaron Weber's been on the road with me once,
and that will be the last time.
He really blew it.
But, so I just figured, you know, we're here,
we're all stuck in Nashville, so let's do
a podcast, you know, let's get it going.
Nicole's Butcher.
And these all sound like stores, do they not?
Nicole's Butcher, you know?
Here at Nicole's Butcher, we exclusively use Reynolds Seal.
I, yeah, I mean, it's all just, hi, I'm Nicole and Nicole's Butcher. And is it Nicole's?
I don't know.
Is it not Nicole's?
You're emphasizing the butcher part. Like, Nicole didn't write it. She got her butcher
to comment for her.
Yeah. Hi. Oh, yeah. Hi, I'm Nicole's butcher.
And I know you might be thinking, why did he, why did she send me out to give
their, her answers, Nicole's busy right now and she can't be bothered.
Is it Nicole's?
It might be Nicholas.
Nicholas butcher.
Nicole's butcher. Hi, how you doing? I'm the Nicole's butcher. Nicole's butcher.
Hi, how you doing?
I'm Nicole's butcher.
Sore so gore.
S O R E S O G O R B.
So gore.
Sore so gore.
So gore.
Is that the real name?
So gore.
You think that is his real name?
Sore.
Yeah.
Sore.
I hope it's his name.
Oh man.
Sore.
Get in here.
You have to say the last name or you just go, sore.
And he goes here.
Every teacher.
I don't think you need to be any more specific.
Sore.
Uh, he just sits there and the teacher's like, uh, which one? Sagoorb.
Oh, I thought it was the other sore.
I play your podcast while working illustrating on my computer.
Sometimes I spend large amounts of time without saving my progress
because I forget to do so.
And then my computer crashes and I lose all my work.
Now I click save every time I hear Nate say unbelievable.
Or every time he roasts bland bread.
I haven't lost a single piece of work ever since.
That's gotta be frustrating.
I mean, everybody knows not saving something.
All the time. When I've written out shows like, which are William and the Hat,
Nate Burgette's show, from the Feld, we send a bunch of these hats to Nigeria. Uh, is there
where they send the hats? They don't go good. President
McCain hats, Atlanta Falcons, Superbowl, like then they had
none. They lost to the Patriots. Uh, they, but yeah, you types
of the, now you, I mean, it's a whole, you're just in the groove
of like doing it and then it just goes away and you're like,
and then the next time is never as good. You're like that's the gist of it and you're like it's not that good. Yeah well I
I lost it. Miriam Gregory. I've been a fan of the podcast since day one. Is that you think that's
right? These names all feel made up. Miriam Gregory. It feels like almost we were short on comments and then Brian went in and boat
ramp went in and, and then just said, just took source to go.
Marion Gregory.
Oh, so worst day I've ever heard.
Oh man.
Yeah. That's a real name.
I don't think he's going to turn around by the way we. Yeah.
Sore is different. Maybe Sore.
Next one's Soda. Seven.
These are all just Georgia stanza names that he came up with.
Sore is the goal. It's beautiful. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm pick one. Oh right. If you want, if you said there's, there's a hundred people standing in a crowd. One of them's named sore.
I'd be like, I feel pretty good.
I could figure out who he is.
If you lined up Dr.
Con source, the core and Miriam Gregory, I could tell you which one was sore.
I'll tell you that much.
Would you, is sore male or female?
Sore feels like sore.
It's gender neutral.
If it's sore, if it's sore, so if it's so ray yeah I'm sorry would
be so lovely lady
you don't think so raisin these are fans Aaron that you're laughing at
fans, Aaron, that you're laughing at. The source they've ever heard.
Well, it's not if it's Soray Segor.
Soray Segor.
Soray Segor.
Like a Ukrainian ballet dancer or something.
Well, they could be big fans.
Soray Segor doesn't sound as bad.
That's what I'm saying.
That sounds like a ballet dancer from Eastern Europe.
Soray. Soray Segor. That sounds like a Sour Sago or the
Eastern Europe. Yeah. Sore
Sore Sago. That actually sorry
is a beautiful name now and I
want to name my next daughter
that I don't we're not having
another daughter. Sore Bargetti.
Yeah. Sore Bargetti. I feel
like I find some little girls
sitting out now on the side of
the road and I she lives with us. That feeling. That's how you get a Sarray in your family.
You don't, they're not born into that family.
And they find them and they, and they're, and they're, they're
putting with that family.
Turler.
That's the guy's name.
I know.
You are our LR Turler.
I think that's his real name.
I don't know.
I don't.
You don't.
I don't think that I know we have a history of
colorful names on the podcast, but Turler. The Turler family? I bet its name is...
The Ler family? The Ler family? I think his name is Tyler and he's being funny. Turler. Ooh, Tyler.
Tyler Ler. That's what I think. All right, you going Tyler? I go with his name is actually Turler
Ooh, Tyler. Tyler Lerner.
That's what I think.
All right.
You going Tyler?
I go with his name is actually Ter Lerner and he has to live with it.
This podcast is officially too dumb for me.
Goodbye folks.
Hey, good run.
I guess we never know.
I guess we're never know.
He's never even going to hear his comment being read.
Yeah.
Ter Lerner.
He's out.
Too dumb.
What does he want it to be?
I know, right? Yeah, go get the Ted Talks podcast.
Yeah, I mean, there's other podcasts. Like, that's what's
like, uh, that would be like if you're watching the Titans
playing, you go, it's just too much football. This is why do
you not watch the Titans? It's a lot of football. Why don't
they throw in some other stuff? You're like, you know what?
They should. They should throw in you know
I was talking to Brian
We had a clip on your Facebook go kind of viral from like the second episode of the podcast
About talking millions billions trillions of dollars has like two million views and a lot of them have no idea
What the podcast is so they're most of the comments are just like these guys are more
podcast is. So most of the comments are just like, these guys are morons. They think it's like a math podcast.
Well, I mean, Turler knows what the podcast is and he thinks we're morons.
Turler made it 23 episodes before he was like, I already gave this a fair shot.
Yeah, he goes, this is, this is, I always love the idea of someone, it's like they're
resigning, like leaving a comment. He goes, he didn't even give us a two week notice. I'm out.
He just goes, like, it's so funny to think like, uh, you think he's at home and he's talking to his, his wife, his roommate, and he just goes, I
can't listen to this podcast anymore.
And they're like, oh, it's cool.
So you go stop listening to it.
I'll probably let them know.
And then I'm going to stop listening to it like that.
What are you, what are you going to do for that?
Uh, you go just unsubscribe. And then I'm going to stop listening to it like that. What are you going to do for that?
You're just going to unsubscribe.
I'm probably going to somehow let these guys know
that I don't think they're good.
And then I'm going to back out.
You know what I mean?
But I think they should know that the Lurr is out.
The Lurr family.
Parting shot.
The Lurr family is out.
What's your greatest?
I don't really don't have one.
What could you?
Alright, so I thought about that.
I mean, the only thing I could possibly think of is I play baseball and basketball.
And there's me as a basketball player there in junior high.
Wow.
Yeah.
Look at that.
So.
They got colored cameras.
And there was one game, I mean, I was terrible. I was always terrible. Yeah. Yeah. Look at that. So they got color cameras.
And there was one game. I mean, I was terrible. I was always terrible. I never scored. There's one game I hit 10 foot jump shot.
Yeah. Legit 10 foot jump shot. So then we go down the other team,
come back down, they throw the ball on me. I shoot again.
The guy on the other team tipped the ball like when I shot it, but somehow it made it go in the hoop.
My coach didn't see this apparently,
so he yells, Brian's hot, give him the ball.
Which I've never heard, he doesn't know
that the only reason that ball went in
is because another guy helped it.
So then we go down, then we come back down,
and I give Brian the ball, which I've never had before,
they throw it to me, I shoot it,
it goes over the backboard.
It was one of those makeshift concession stands over there
where the parents run and it bounced like over into there
where the dad had to throw it back in.
That's my greatest moment.
Your greatest moment is a heat check.
Yeah, a heat check.
For a second they thought I was.
He's cold, he's back off.
That's what they have to yell.
Don't throw it to him anymore. No more Brian. No more Brian, everybody. But I mean, I stole a base once
and thought that somehow the guy had fouled the ball back and I ran back to first.
It confused them so much.
I was on second and I thought I only found it back so I started right back for it about halfway there he's like throw it throw it to first and I had a slide head first into
first base and I'm back right where I was with the first base coach. He's like, what are you doing, man?
You were there.
That's like, I thought they found it.
I thought they found it.
I didn't know.
So in a way I stole two bases.
That's never happened before.
You're the only one.
He stole a base that he stole in the back.
The look on my first base coach's face when he saw me coming back there.
Oh dude.
I mean, just to be, just to have to dive in, just to like, you have to, you
have to slide, just fix a problem that shouldn't be a problem, like you're
getting back to the original, you could be like, dude, you could just stay here,
man, and we wouldn't be going through this and for you to get all the way to Like you're getting back to the original. You could be like, dude, you could just stay here, man.
And we wouldn't be going through this.
And for you to get all the way to second.
That's like, that's it.
I feel like with you, you end up anybody else that's like, maybe you
beg it back to first, but you just go back to first and you're like, well,
that was a stupid
Gets in a battle situation Just trying to get back to the original spot. I mean, it's a full-on real play. I mean I wouldn't head first

CJ, Brian has resting confused face.
That is true.
Well, let me say, first of all, when Nate's talking, it's not resting.
But I've had this before.
When I was a senior in high school, we went on our senior trip to Panama City.
It was my first time away from my parents.
I was so excited.
My friends down there and we met these girls.
I was trying to be so cool, just hanging out.
And out of nowhere, one of these girls just goes,
this guy looks worried.
And they all start dying laughing.
And they're like, look, he's worried.
And the rest of the trip, they called me worried.
That was my nickname was worried.
Worried is such a good word to use.
Like if they would have said this guy looks confused.
Worried.
I mean, they named, they labeled me that.
Yeah.
Worried is such a good word for that situation.
Women know how to cut to cut to your heart.
Don't think you could have said confused.
She could have said that would have ruined the whole trip for me. I mean, I still remember it to this day
He could just try to hang out I would try to be so cool by not talking
Yeah, and then she yeah, I mean I had a bum over here looks worried. Who's he with you two?
And then for them just to call you worried
God that's so funny, dude.
I still remember it.
How can I mean that's like, that's like professional standup.
That's the, you would, you would try different words, right?
You would be scared.
If you, you would try to everything and worried.
If you might as like, think about Worried is just a very funny word.
And it's a, it's just such a description that it's not a strong person. And it's a, I mean,
it hurts. Like, you know, you don't say worried about he, man is not worried. He like, or
like there's, you know, soldiers are not worried. Like they're, you know, they're confused.
They could be scared.
Scared is okay.
Yeah.
Worried.
Also not worried about anything in particular, just worried in general.
General look.
And it's coming from like guys.
You maybe could see that, but from a girl.
Oh, yeah.
And they all laughed.
I mean, I was mortified.
Yeah.
More worried.
He got super worried. Yeah. It's a, it is self-fulfilling.
Peter Bridge.
When Bruce told the story about the woman, I like how it's now just, I mean, it's not
even, I can't even find one that calls me by my real name.
Yeah, I looked and it's what's so, it's just how quickly it goes in.
You know what I mean?
Like it's not like where it's an obvious, we're making fun of a joke.
When Bruce told the story about the woman label, I mean,
it's just like not like a breeze. When Bruce told the story about the woman
labeling him as worried, it quite literally made me pee. Those chicks just
totally nailed it. He still gives off the worried vibe. No offense, Bryce. Yeah.
Worried is, I mean, that's unbelievable. That'd be the name of your album.
Worried. It's the name of my life. Yeah. You really should do your next album. It should be
Worried. My next album. It's just you being, well, you're going to have to do one now. The
people are going to want to hear it. Yeah. You know, everybody go buy his first album. It's still
out there. But Worried is a great name for it.
I thought about that story all week.
Ace here, Bilbo's PBS pick is underrated.
That's a pretty good choice for one channel.
Thank you.
I don't know if I should thank them or be insulted.
Bilbo's, I mean that's a crazy name.
Aaron pointed out someone called me breakfast. Breakfast is unbelievable.
Breakfast is as good as worried.
I don't think it's on here, but it was in the comments.
I mean, breakfast is unreal.
That's amazing.
That's the best one I've heard.
Just to call him, I don't know, is breakfast coming up? It's got the same amount of syllables as Brian.
It's got the BR.
Yeah.
It's perfect.
And it's so ridiculous.
Man.
Yeah.
Breakfast is good.
I like how Brickels and Aaron are finding their niche roles in this production.
Aaron, the reluctant genius and brisket is the self-deprecating setup man.
Brigade even smiled and laughed out loud a few times on this one.
Wow.
We got some life out of brigade.
Breakfast is moving around.
Colin Lippard.
Brad looks like the substitute teacher that desperately wants the
approval of the full-time teachers.
That's a great, that's like a real comment.
Comment.
You look like a substitute teacher that you walk in the teachers' lounge.
Just like, Hey guys.
And it's like, Hey, and then one of the real teachers, like you
don't work here full-time, man.
I know you're here for a while because
podcast a lot. Bon Bon and Aaron are amazing and can't wait to see them both grow like you.
Bon Bon.
What do you, what name do you think you're going to make it as?
Cause it's not going to be Brian.
It's going to be something else.
Bon Bon I like.
You like them all.
I like why this keeps happening.
Cause you encourage it.
I know, but I love, I mean, Bon Bon.
Welcome to the stage.
You're a Bon Bon. You say, I mean, Bon Bon. Welcome to the stage, Bon Bon.
You say, I mean, you could be dancing somewhere
named Bon Bon.
But I imagine the disappoint,
everybody please welcome to the stage, Bon Bon.
And then you walk out on stage and like, oh God.
And then some guys like, just wait.
He has to just wait.
All right, so we'll start with the beginning of grocery stores.
A little fun fact here. The first self-service grocery store.
This felt like doing a school, you know, when you let go.
All right, everybody.
Brian Bring.
Brian Bates.
And then it sounded exactly.
Yeah. You don't like the way I start stuff. I don't think.
Uh, like your standup, like jokes.
Well, that's the S I've read like three times on the show and twice you've
called me out on the way I started.
So I don't think I'm good at starting, but you got, okay.
Uh, here we go.
But yeah, now I'm thinking about my jokes.
I got it.
Yeah.
How do you start your joke?
You said, hello folks.
You say folks?
Yeah.
I'm pretty sure you say folks.
Yeah.
It for every joke?
No, when you come out, when you come out, hello folks.
And you might say it when you leave, you don't think you say, do you say folks?
I don't think so.
I think you do.
Okay.
Every joke.
Every joke.
That's his thing.
That's why people like it.
That's his.
And he sells t-shirts in the lobby to say, okay, hello folks.
And it's just a picture of him.
That's his image.
Hello. And it's just a picture of him. That's his image.
Hello.
It's just seven hands that go like that.
Hello, folks.
And then he does his act.
Then every joke, I start with it again.
Yeah.
Hello, folks.
Then good night, folks.
How good would that be, man? And there you go. Hello folks, then good night folks.
How good would that be, man?
That's so good.
I mean that's just like, that is, that is, that would be like if you're a stand-up comic,
you just got pulled out of Lebanon and you didn't know Nashville exists.
And you just, and then you're like, I've been doing comedy in Lebanon for 15 years.
All right, sorry.
I've been to some bad, some sad zoos.
I haven't been to any really good ones.
What's a sad one?
I went to one in Arkansas that was just, there's just trash and every, a lot of trash.
And the saddest part was there's like a penguin exhibit, but it's Arkansas in the summer.
So it was just these penguins all huddled up standing in front of a fan in this exhibit.
It was just, I was like, what are, why are they here?
How do you say it?
Yeah.
What was the exhibit?
It was a penguin.
Yeah.
It was different.
Penguin.
I say penguin.
I say penguin.
Penguin?
Penguin. I mean, that sounds like the guy that would run
that penguin exhibit. Hey, what do you got going on here? I'm just penguin. I got a couple penguins
and we got bought, put a couple penguins downtown. But the other day, the other night,
I bought a couple of penguins. I've never, you would seem like a guy that, some of this says like that sells penguins to zoos that are
kind of under the radar. How are you supposed to say it? Penguin. Penguin? Yeah. I mean that's what I say. It's an E. P-E-N-G-U-I-N. You're saying it like an A. You're saying it like an I. But I and E can sound the same. You're should be P-A-N-G. I mean, you want to look, can you look this up?
Can you look up the pronun- I mean, this might be, nobody's interested in this,
but now I feel-
Look, you may be right.
I don't think so.

This podcast is off the rails already?
I mean, what happened?
I mean, that's the best thing you could hope. What'd you think was going to be the guy in
Wilkes-Barre down the alley?
I thought it could be something that has nothing to do with penguins. I thought, I honestly,
I honestly thought it would be like, that's what they call some other thing. And then penguins are nothing.
It's penguins.
But it's straight up penguin.
We got penguin problems.
How much you want to, I love a guy selling that and a couple of penguins
in the back, one's all black, doesn't have any white, feet are blue.
Is it?
Let me see.
Let me see. Is you kidding me right now?
I'm trying to start moan zoo and I'd love some penguins is the thing that I
think set us over the top.
I mean, I think that's what the guy says that what's the, because if I get a
couple of penguins, I think we'll be, we'll be just right.
I charge $8 to give them that place.
Get a couple of penguins.
The official pronunciation is how I was saying it.
It was, you know, just let that for the record.
All right.
So that's your worst.
Yeah. I don't even remember.
Yeah, that was it.
Uh, dark and saw one as the bug that had in that that had a penguin exhibit.
I want to believe in aliens because it shows that some civilization didn't blow themselves
up and were able to get out in space and have some fun.
Is that a hopeful thing?
Yeah.
Yeah.
So there should be other civilian stations that they're playing. It's blue themselves.
So, yes.
Is that what they think?
I think that you say civilian stations.
It's one big happy civilian station.
I mean, you're trying to say civilization.
Yeah.
Okay.
It blew me away.
I was like civilian station.
And you want people to take us seriously. How are they going to take us seriously? I mean, I don't know. I don't think they're...
Oh boy.
Maybe they... But I hope something is called civilian station. That's what Earth is called.
We are a station for civilians.
Yeah, that's a good point.
Drop off point. We are a station for civilians. Yeah, that's a good point drop-off point I think I'm ahead of the game. I I feel like an alien talking to dumb
Because people make fun of the what I say and I'm like and I always just go you're see you're gonna one day use this
Civilian a lot of weeks in the comments the next week someone will say Nate was actually right. It's
He's ahead of his time. So I'm no such thing as civilization. It's a conspiracy.
Is there been other civilizations?
Sniveling nations.
Is there been other civilian stations?
We've had critical comedy reactions. It's a meltdown.
In all seriousness though, is there, so there's been other civilian stations, that's what we're going to call other planets.
Whereas civilians have lived is what they say and they're gone.
I would think they're...
The argument is the reason we've never found in all our vast searching...
I'm sorry.
Success.
Air may need to step out.
Now we're just happy to see some life out of you.
That's so funny.
The argument is, in all our searching of all the cosmos, one argument is maybe because
they've long since destroyed themselves. And they advance like we do with nuclear weapons
or some sort, and then they eventually just kill themselves.
And so they are.
And done civilian stations.
It's that's what we're going to call this episode.
Don't you think that's a good that's how to describe Earth?
Nobody's ever good that's how to describe Earth?
Dribbling vacation civilization. I just kind of stopped. I was like
It was at the breaking point and that well the show if he I was, it was like I was walking down a road. I looked the other way and then I, then I go, where was I?
And I was, but I was still in the same word when all that happened.
It gets better and better.
So I said, civilian station.
Wait till you're 60.
Civilianation.
Things come out of your mouth.
You don't even know.
It's not my fault.
I was raised, I was taught by humans.
It's not my fault. I was raised, I was taught by humans.
So traveling is a big deal. It's a big deal during the holidays.
What is it the most, when's the, do you know like the most?
Most traveled Thanksgiving.
Thanksgiving. Why is Thanksgiving? I guess Santa, Santa Claus travels.
So Santa's got to come to your home. So that's, you know. Yeah.
People with kids, they want to stay home to do that, but Thanksgiving's more of a go see the.
It's also a secular holiday.
So everybody, all Americans celebrate it.
I feel like.
Yeah.
It's a big word, man.
But I thought you were going to argue that's why Thanksgiving's more travel.
That's what I'm saying.
Yeah.
That's why Thanksgiving is more travel. Would you say that'm saying. Yeah. That's why Thanksgiving is more travel.
You say that word just at your dinner table with your family.
Secular.
I mean, it depends on the conversation.
Would that be the conversation comes up?
Maybe then you go, it's my favorite secular holiday.
And your family would just, you come from a smart family though.
Right.
So you guys probably use, I guess I remember using that because my parents
would made us go to mass on Thanksgiving sometimes.
And I remember being like, come on, this is a secular holiday.
This isn't even, you would say that in an argument to your parents.
This is a secular holiday.
What are we, what are we doing here?
We can't, yeah.
Church and state.
Come on.
I mean, I mean, wow.
Wow.
Did you have a lab coat on?
Did, I mean, that's, did you use it in, I mean, I don't,
you know, yeah. We, we just, my family, we just clap at each other. We make noises.
Like monkeys.
We're like, yeah. We're just, you know.
They throw things, call each other idiots.
Yeah. We're the idiot family and we just, you know, just stomp on the ground
when you want something.
You know, it's like how horses talk to each other.
That's what we, that's what goes on in our family.
Just walk in, just hear noises.
You listen to the whale sounds.
You're like, no, my mom's cooking something.
Uh.
the well sounds. You're like, no, my mom's cooking something. We're not using secular, I tell you that right now. If I threw that around my family, we'd all be like, whoa,
someone's taking some online classes somewhere, aren't we?
But there's no mention of when Jesus was born in the Bible.
Yeah. Isn't it supposed to, you know, the people just think it's July, right?
I've heard some people think it's the spring or summer.
They weren't using a Gregorian calendar back then.
No.
So who knows what timing.
No.
Would y'all use a Gregorian calendar too? Would y'all do that a lot?
That's the calendar that we all use, the Gregorian calendar, right?
But would you, with those words, I mean, I just would love to be that.
Like you bring your girlfriend over like from high school and you go, my family,
that's great.
Thanks for coming.
And then it's, you know, it's like, uh, you know, it's like, Hey, how you doing?
What's your, what's your favorite secular holiday?
You know, on the Gregorian calendar, obviously.
And then the little, the girl's like, what?
That's the word y'all you guys are going to, you just run her off.
Uh, wouldn't be fire.
I mean, I would almost say, uh, lever.
A lever.
Like a pulley or a lever maybe.
Fulcrum.
What?
What's a fulcrum?
You know, like a seesaw thing.
Oh yeah.
That kind of, is that what they say? Is that what you said? Fulcrum be you know, like a seesaw thing. Oh yeah.
Kind of is that what they say?
Is that what you said?
Fulcrum be the thing in the middle.
Is that what you say?
And you go ride as a kid.
You're just a fun kid.
You guys want to go fulcrum and everybody's like, Oh God.
Do you remember riding the fulcrum a lot of loan?
Is it that, is it cause that's, that's how you described a lot of stuff. Hey, yeah, I was gonna ride the fulcrum and they alone? Is it that, is it because that's how you described a lot of stuff?
Hey, yeah, I was going to ride the fulcrum and they go, I don't know.
Anybody want a fulcrum?
We're going to just swing.
I mean, that is what it is, right?
Anyway.
All right.
Kyle M.
Dear Nathaniel, I am a teacher in China and I can't go one more day without you
using the word good as an adverb.
The correct word is well. I've
heard five year old Chinese kids speak better than you. One of them even has a guided horse.
Perhaps bridle path should be catching these. Where Kyle? Well, Kyle, how about I'll tell you,
I'm not really sure what an adverb is. So how does that make you feel?
He gave an example here.
I didn't even pick up on it.
Where was it?
Underneath it.
Here's an example.
Oh, I've read.
Oh, here's an example.
Incorrect.
He plays golf good.
Correct.
He plays golf well.
Look, I'm not an adverb guy and I don't talk about adverbs.
I don't think I've ever talked about them.
He thinks a pronoun's a noun that gets paid to be a sentence.
I say good a lot, but I will say, I do know that when I'm saying good that a lot of times
it's not good, but I do it, it's saying it different, which sticks out.
I'm in a job of words. So he plays golf well. I'm not going to talk like that. That doesn't fit.
It's funnier when I say it's good. Good is what's funny. That's what's funny. If it gets under your
skin, that means it's probably a better way of being funnier. All your Chinese kids, you're not going to make it in comedy. You'll talk to them a little
bit. I'm sure they speak better than me, but we're not competing for the same jobs.
Good on them. He spoke well. Court gestures.
Yeah.
We spent 15 minutes on rolling the farter and then we were just like, and
the crusades happen like court, court, what court gestures.
How do you say it?
Gestures.
You got called out a lot for people.
Jesters.
Jesters.
Yeah.
Gestures.
Say gestures. Like can say gestures.
I say like Chester, like Chester drawers.
No, like.
Do you think that's even veninal?
Court jester and then in Chester drawers and he goes, I'll just change it to CH and then
didn't even notice.
We're going to sell Chester drawers on their website. Uh, what do you, that's Jester is not like, I'm putting an H in there.
Yeah.
You're saying it like, oh, that was a nice gesture.
Gesture.
But it's just her.
Just her.
Like just her.
Just her.
Just her.
Just her.
Who's in there?
Just her.
She's in there alone.
That's closer.
Court Jester.
Just her.
The court should say just her. That's closer than gesture. Court jester.
That's better. Just her in court.
Chris, I mean, those words I have trouble like when there's, you know,
those words. There's a collision of sounds right in the middle of them words I have trouble like when there's, you know, those words, there's a,
there's a collision of sounds are in the middle of them. I have a, I have a tough time, you
know, when there's a car wreck of noise in the middle of a word, I have a, I have a bit
of a bit of a trouble, bit of a trouble.
Now we should address this up top. You say the word a little funny. Oh, I did. Yeah.
What do you call the, so a poet would write a poem.
I don't even know how I say it.
Point.
That's crazy, dude.
No, I say it with one syllable and it's two.
No, you say point.
I don't know what I'd say.
Now it's a poem.
Poem.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Country coming out.
We have two syllables. My point. It's like two syllables, right? Poem. Yeah. Country coming out. We thought it was two syllables.
My point is like two syllables, right?
Poem.
Yeah.
And I say it with one plus some other stuff.
Yeah.
Well, this is going to be a long episode for me since I say it incorrectly.
Cause I got a lot here.
I'm sorry, but I just feel like we needed to call it out.
Okay.
So I say poetry. Okay. Tell me how I say it.
Okay.
Well, tell me how to say that.
Just try it again. I'll just do it my way.
Try it again? I'm going to say it the same way.
Poetry.
What's going on?
We talked about it for so long.
You hit it so hard.
You hit it so hard.
You hit it so hard.
You hit it so hard.
You hit it so hard.
You hit it so hard.
You hit it so hard.
You hit it so hard.
You hit it so hard.

You hit it so hard.
You hit it so hard. You hit it so hard. You hit it so hard. You hit right, dude. I got it. I'll get it together. Just avoid saying it however you can.
It's going to be tough because I know it's the topic, but just try to avoid it.
Um, boys.
Yeah.
There's that words in here a lot.
It's coming up a lot.
Uh, let me just give dusty a second.

A poem.
A poem.
Is what?
Finish the sentence.
Well, okay. I'll just keep going.
Well, okay, I'll just keep going. It's a piece of writing that in contrast to prose, primarily aims to evoke emotion in
readers and listeners.
Poems.
My dog met story in 2006 in Murfreesboro, Tennessee.
Me, my brother, and two friends were walking
in the back of an unfinished neighborhood in the black man community.
Black man.
That sounds much better than that, man.
I mean that sounds-
You're like, where's this going?
Yeah.
I was like, oh my God.
That's crazy.
Unfinished neighborhood in the black man community.
What is this podcast?
That's, I mean, that's crap. Unfinished neighborhood and the black man can be like, oh, what is this podcast?
How you say that is super important. Well, that's a very important, I should have got some heads up.
I should have been briefed before we got to that one.
Maria Alvarez, shout out from a stenographer.
It's when the words like come around the corner and surprise me.
You know what I mean?
It's I don't know they're there and it's, it's like, I just get the, you
know, stenographer, but it's honestly, it's the word just is like, I don't know.
That's a word you don't see written very often. Oh, no, it's the word just like, I don't know. That's a
word you don't see written
very often. Oh, Aaron. No, it's
whole job is writing it but
they just say it. Uh yeah, it
kind of surprised me. That's
how I look at it. If I don't
know a word, that's what just
understand. That's what it is.
Automanip is actually not that
hard of a word to say and it I
bet if you you look at it, you
be like, oh no, I don't know. Onomatopoeia.
It kind of just finishes itself.
Matt Oregon, my 10th grade English teacher taught us that on a, on a mon, on
a, what is it on a monopoeia?
Onomatopoeia.
Onomatopoeia.
Onomatopoeia is the second most rhyme-ical, rim-ical, rhythm.
What is that word? Golly. Rhythmical, rim-ical, rhythm, what is that word?
Golly.
Rhythmical.
Rhythmical.
Onomatopoeia is the second most rhythmical.
That felt like I was like trying to jump over and not fall in the water,
hearing that word.
Rhythmical.
Rhythmical.
Like I just kept trying to cross a creek and not get my feet wet.
You got to kind of, the last one's a little bit farther.
I'm like, I'll get there.
The first iPhone came out in 2007.
Steve Jobs made a prank call,
order a 4,000 lattes to a nearby Starbucks.
That was the first call?
Yeah, I remember that.
And then I watched that live.
Really?
That keynote.
Yeah. He called, oh, he was doing a keynote and then, yeah. He showed, it was the first
time I remember being amazed by a piece of technology. When he scrolled on the iPhone for
the first time, just on the screen, I remember gasping. Not air conditioning? I was watching it with my sister.
I grew up with air conditioning. I didn't, I remember, you probably remember getting it, but
I grew up with air conditioning. I didn't.
I remember you probably remember getting it, but I grew up with it.
So when you saw that you go, I did gasp.
I mean, it was, it was unlike anything you'd ever seen.
This guy's touching a screen and flipping it up.
I'm like gasping.
Like you've seen it.
I mean, like you're watching.
What?
Just nothing impresses you.
You just, you know, I don't know if I'm sitting, you're watching on a television
at home, you know if you're watching on a
television at home. You know,
you're not watching Houdini in
a town square in the 1800s as
you tell me as a 10 year old
Aaron Weber in your living room,
you go, oh, did you just he
scrolled on the screen and then
and your family came running. If
you watch the you can watch the
video of that, the crowd gasps as as it happens. I mean, maybe in the room and like I get that you're saying in the living, in your living
room on your television.
How old were you?
When did this happen?
2007.
2007.
16?
Yeah, when they, 15, 16.
Yeah.
What's the matter?
If you had a, what's the matter?
You gasping at another grown man on TV scrolling?
I'm not saying I'm not wowed by things, but I don't know if I'm gasping.
I don't know if I've gasped at anything.
You've never gasped?
I don't think so.
I mean, it wasn't like, I wasn't embarrassed.
It was just like, oh wow.
What was that? I was like, oh wow.
Wow.
Mama.
You said they ain't gonna do it, but they didn't, mama.
He's swiping on the screen.
Did you start swiping on your TV and just go,
is it gonna move?
That's how you change the channel on your TV.
You just started like rubbing on the screen.
Summer is in full swing, and boy is it hot out there and being out and about is the vibe.
You know what can ruin the vibe?
Bad socks, bad socks and blisters.
Bombas make socks that keep up with whatever your summer looks like.
Whether you're running a marathon or just a few errands.
A few errands.
Bombas is not just socks either. They got fresh white tees you barely have to break in,
waterproof slides for the beach, backyard and everywhere in between, and buttery soft sweat wicking underwear that feels barely there.

I'm sorry about that, man.
Somehow I missed out at boy bands.
Weren't cool.
If you're a guy, it's new edition.
Yeah, they were a big thing, but that's the only boy.
And then my senior, before my senior year of high school, right before we started
back, me and my buddy went to the new kids on the block concert and we didn't
realize that that's not cool for guys.
So I bought a t-shirt at Starwood amphitheater to wear to school.
My first day of my senior year.
And big statement. Well, people quickly let me know. to wear to school my first day of my senior year. And-
Big statement.
Well, people quickly let me know.
It kind of, yeah, I brought it for a visual.
Yeah.
I wore this shirt to school first day of my senior year.
And it didn't go over well.
Guys quickly let me know this,
I mean, yeah. That's not cool. Like an improv troupe.
Yeah.
You would be, what did you usually tell them?
You'd do a concert, you're like, no, I stole it from some girl.
That would be what you should have, you would have been like, all right, that's cool.
I beat up a girl and took her shirt.
I mean, I was so proud.
It took like third period of people just like, what are you doing, man?
Before I realized this was a huge mistake.
And you had to wear it?
All day.
All day?
Yeah.
Yeah, I mean, I couldn't go home.
Yeah.
Could you turn it on its head and be like,
yeah, it's hilarious that I'm wearing this.
I could have if I was smart, but no.
It took me half the day to realize it's not cool.
I think if you had a time machine,
we could go back and fix it. you're kind of past the point of don't you think you
could have done it yeah I could have done a lot of stuff could have there's a
lot of stuff I would have differently a little bit more I went up to a guy in
high school and asked for his autograph Who? Who was it? Who? Who was it? I don't know.
That was... What?
What?
What?
What?
What?
What?
God.
You didn't go to my high school.
Were you in high school?
I was like a freshman in high school
and I was the biggest sports fan in the world.
And I read like every Street and Smith college basketball
magazine from cover to cover.
And they listed the top high school players coming out.
And a guy named Carlos Groves
played at East Robertson High School.
And he got recruited by Tennessee.
And he was in my magazine.
And I was so excited that he came to our high school to play.
He was like a celebrity that I went up to him
and had him autograph my magazine.
And his buddies were like teasing him. You know, like what it would almost be like if
somebody came to me now, like it was just ridiculous.
Everywhere around like he was embarrassed. I'm the only one not embarrassed at the time.
Everybody else is like, what is going on here? And they just teased him about it.
Yeah. Chris Radcliffe, Nate, the worst word I butchered while reading out loud was hors d'oeuvres.
Or derves.
Or derves.
I pronounced it as hours devours.
And probably got ridiculed by my friends. I'm
curious how you're pronouncing it right now. I said horse divorce.
A horse divorce.
A horse divorce. It's been happening a lot around here. Horse divorces. What if you get a lawyer?
That looks like a business card should be that. What do you do? I do horse divorces. What if you get a lawyer? That looks like a business card should be that.
What do you do? I do horse divorces. And then he goes, Oh, specialize,
specialize in horse divorces. Do they get divorced a lot more than you think?
Imagine what, what do you think it is? And you go, I think it's zero.
And he goes, it's every one of them.
There's not one horse that I've met that stays along with his running mate.
They're all so unhappy.
They're all so unhappy. And I deal with horse divorces. I got more than I want.
And then someone comes over and gives him some caviar and he goes, oh, thank you.
Because that's what they'd be serving at a horse divorce party.
Upscale.
Upscale.
Upscale hours devours.
You know, if you don't say, what is it?
Or, uh, or derves, or derves.
Wow.
How did they get to that? Do you think anybody says that word correctly the first time they see it? Or, uh, or derves or derves. How did they get to that?
Do you think anybody says that word correctly? The first time they see it,
there's not a chance. Yeah. And even if you know it,
you don't see that in your head when you say hors d'oeuvres, you know, nobody does.
Horse about the same brand.
I was going to say, I can see how he would hours devours.
I could kind of see that leap.
Horse divorce is a little more of a leap, but.
Horse devours.

embarrassing moments. Yeah. And it's comics, we share them. Yeah. And that's turned 50 today. So we've all, you live that long. You're going to have some embarrassing moments. Yeah. And it's comics.
We share them. Yeah. And that's what makes them funny. Now.
So I hope they don't really think, I feel like I'm the luckiest person in the
world. Yeah. I got great friends, present company, and I included a great job.
I get to do what I love. Yeah. I got a great wife. I got a baby on the way.
I got a lot to be thankful for. You don't have a baby on the way. I love. Yeah. I got a great wife. I got a baby on the way. I got a lot to be thankful for.
You don't have a baby on the way.
I do.
Do you really?
Yep.
Are you kidding?
Are you kidding?
Dude, get out of town, man.
There we go.
That's awesome.
Man.
Congrats, dude.
Congrats buddy.
That's unreal.
Thank you.
That's so great.
Wow.
Thank you so much.
Golly, that's crazy.
Oh man.
I thought you were just joking.
I got a lot to be thankful for.
Nope.
Yeah.
Wow.
I'm very serious.
We'll get to the bottom of this stroke stuff a little bit quicker than we think.
I know.
We'll figure it out.
Got to get it figured out.
Got to be healthy for our baby.
I know.
How long, for how long is she?
She's already in second trimester.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, at our age, we wanted to really wait and make sure that everything was good,
but we felt like now we're at the point where we can tell people.
So that's so great.
Oh man.
Little girl.
A girl?
Wow.
Yeah.
Wow.
That's crazy, dude.
Yeah.
That's crazy.
So I'm very, we're so excited.
Where's your mom just, she.
She was thrilled.
Yeah. She just, uh, couldn't believe it. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So we we're so excited. Where's your mom? Just she, she was thrilled. Yeah.
She just, uh, couldn't believe it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So we're all so excited.
Yeah.
I don't know if anybody thought we're going to have a kid.
I'm sure y'all didn't think you were.
No, we didn't.
And, uh, you know, it's not easy at our age, but yeah, things happen.
It's a miracle.
So yeah, we're doing it.
Yeah.
Congratulations, man.
Uh, if you're the praying type, I asked for continued prayers for healthy baby.
Yeah.
And that I'm not having a stroke.
Yeah.
Let's do the baby first.
We're going to rank it in order.
Like the way the prayer is ranking, like where people in states and they go, well,
Alaska does a, they did the stroke first, but most of the other country did the baby
first at the end of the other country did the baby first.
At the end of the episode, I watched after the sign-off as Nate walked to breakfast
and I expected him to give him a hug or something after breakfast is big news.
Instead he reached over and grabbed some Sour Patch Kids.
Typical Nate, keep up the good work.
That was good.
Yeah.
We've hugged.
I don't think we did.
Do we hug?
I think we, not much.
It's very funny.
I'm going to pull that up.
I want you to watch.
No, I think we, I want you to watch.
I think we have hugged.
It'll take a second.
We've hugged.
Occasionally, when you got married.
Yep.
When this baby's born.
I mean, the fact that you guys are going to argue about it just proves it's not enough.
I just wish we hugged more is what I'm saying.
Yeah. There's a point I hugged.
There's, yeah, there's a buddy, Dan Chackie.
We never would shake hands when we would leave because he'd be like, we're about to
see you.
You know, it's like, sometimes it's like, it can be like, what are we doing?
You know, but I like hugging, but when you're around someone all the time, I'm not
hugging.
Here we go.
Here's the end.
So you get up, right?
Just by the good, it looks like you're about to get up.
Hey, man, Congratulations, dude.
Priorities.
So there's a regional in Pittsburgh and it's, it's not in the city, but the Saturday, you know,
a group of little people were like, let's go and see downtown Pittsburgh.
So this one girl, she has a new minivan.
All right.
We're all little people.
Her dad just bought this new brand new, beautiful minivan, accessible
van, you know, very expensive. So we go into downtown Pittsburgh and everyone's drinking,
you know, and I'm not because, you know, it's early and I was just tired. So the girl whose
minivan it is, she only had like one beer, but she was like, I probably shouldn't drive.
I was like, I'll drive, you know, I'm fine.
You know?
And so now we're on the fourth floor of a parking garage
that is on a very heavy, steep incline, okay?
Fourth floor down.
And so I get in very confident, okay?
I'm a good driver and I start the car
and I, you know, put it, I put my foot on the brake now
and I put it in reverse.
Now what happens is the pedal extension falls off the brake.
So you have to, you put an extension on, obviously.
I drive with pedal extension.
So it's like a regular pedal,
but there's two extended bars that attach to the pedals.
One on the gas, one on the brake.
So when I put the car in reverse and I put my foot on the brake, I don't know how, but
my foot just knocks that brake pedal off.
So now all of a sudden, within a second, we are just full speed going backwards down on
the fourth floor and there's a guard rail where we could just go over.
Five little people in this minivan were just dead.
So real instinct, I'm like, look, I gotta save us.
So I just start hitting cars on the way.
Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.
I'm slowing us down and I hit seven cars.
And now I get out and she is just like, I cannot believe
this. This is the brand new minivan my family has been saving for and I just hit seven cars.
I smashed. So now we have to just sit there and wait to tell all these people that I,
along with these other five innocent little people just smashed and destroyed
all these cars.
I mean, just so many people walking out, like seven people, like it's, I mean, possibly
15 people are walking out and you're like, how you doing?
Do you park on the fourth floor?
You got to ask him, they're like, yeah.
All right, well, we'll probably got some news for you.
And then we got to get back to the hotel later because this is the convention. Yeah. And that's like the talk of the conference. Every little person knows what happens. Like
everyone's mad. You know, this family has been saving up for this minivan. And this is years ago,
we're talking about 15 years ago, but I actually saw that girl, you know, I see her all the time,
but a couple of years ago, she's like, you know, we're still paying off for that.
but a couple of years ago she's like, you know, we're still paying off for that.
I told you the story about going to have a spot roof
on my face and they told me to put on a hospital gown
and I'd never, I've never been in the hospital.
So I didn't know if you're supposed to take your clothes off
or not.
So I started, I was, for some reason in my head,
I thought it'd look dumber if I still had my clothes on.
Yeah, you have jeans on. I just started stripping down.
And right when I just get down to the bed,
the nurse knocks on the door and I was like, just a minute.
And she's like, it's just me, hon.
And I was thinking, man, we just met.
And she comes on in with an intern and I'm just whatever.
She's like, oh, you didn't have to take your bottoms off, hon.
Yeah.
Where's your spot get removed?
Right here.
Next to your eye.
Next to your eye.
So then she has to leave the room,
and I have to completely put all my clothes back on,
and then the gown on.
Why?
Why did you have to put the gown on to begin with?
To just keep blood from getting, you know, getting on me because that...
I was completely stripped out.
Took your jeans off.
I took everything off. My socks are off.
Yeah. It's like a normal doctor's office.
Like they're going like, yeah, we don't do stuff like this, man.
Like you had...
She had an intern with her.
Yeah. Because a. He walks in.
Did they laugh?
I think they were more startled than anything.
But then I have to put it all back on and then he comes in with her and the intern and
I'm just like, I know they've been out there talking about you.
Oh, yeah.
We still are.
Everybody's talked about you.
Yeah.
Oh, everybody. Yeah. That was like, and they went home. The guy in 431 took all his clothes off.
Oh, good. He looks like he would have. They know immediately who you're talking.
Yeah. Don't tell me. Let me guess. My wallet's gone. My wallet's gone.
I mean- God, they make you really study when you sell peanut butter, huh?
Yeah.
I mean, you know,
People ask these questions.
You just don't go selling it.
Yeah.
You know what's happening.
All right.
You show up at somebody's doorstep, you better know your stuff.
Yeah.
I think nowadays,
There was no doorsteps, man.
I know.
I don't know.
It wasn't selling Girl Scout cookies or something, man.
Encyclopedias. Come on.
I had big accounts, Darren.
You tie the horse up to the thing and walk inside.
I had like Kroger.
You know, like I had.
Yeah.
Oh, wow.
Yeah.
You're kind of belittling what I did.
You got taught Kroger into buying peanut butter.
They were an anti-peanut butter.
Go ahead.
No, no.
Now you sound like my dad.
Okay. It was like, you know, I always had a hard time explaining the job. It was a good job. It was
like, you know, paid a lot and it was a competitive job to get. But my dad was like, well, you know,
you're not, you're not really in sales. I'm like, yeah, yeah, I am. He was like, well, I've been
going to the grocery store for 60 years and they've always had Jif peanut butter.
Yeah.
What do they need you for?
It's not about, it's not about like whether they carry it
or not, it's about how much they sell to their consumer.
And there's all kinds of things,
dials and switches I can move to help them sell more.
And he'd still be like, yeah, you're not in sales.
Like the display and such displays a big display.
Shelf placement.
Shelf placement is another shelf place was another.
You would be eye level.
You'd like to be eye level.
Yeah.
You'd like to be, you'd like to have a block.
You'd like to have a real nice block.
I don't know why that's funny, Nate.
I'm telling you this is important stuff here.
He said you'd like to be serious. Like like I felt like I was interviewing to be a
beer, I go, so we want to be eye level.
You like to be, don't expect to be eye level.
You guys can walk in there and be eye level.
You guys can walk in and say you're eye level.
Yeah.
I mean, yeah.
You're a new kid on the block.
Don't think you're going to try to throw you at the bottom.
The first day.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, and I saw it in a lot of different places.
I mean, Jif, we were, we were brand leader.
Usually we were. If you walk into a store today I mean, Jif, we were brand leader usually.
We were, if you walk into a store today
and you see Jif on the bottom shelf,
somebody did something to make somebody angry.
Yeah, interesting.
Yeah, now Pringles, that was a whole, we were, you know.
You sold Pringles to me.
Yeah, I sold Pringles.
So you got a peanut butter.
No, no, I was saying, they were the same company.
I sold Pringles, Jif, Duncan Hines.
Is Pringles considered a potato chip?
It is.
You're selling very easy.
You're selling things that are-
It's not easy, Nate.
I mean, these are, I think I'm on your dad's team.
I know.
It's-
You're selling stuff that's like, I don't know.
I swear I went through this.
The things that I have to have.
Yeah.
I went through this, but I was like-
That's like being like, you're selling cocaine.
No, it's-
It goes pretty good.
People really like it.
And you go, oh, is it hard to do?
No, it's, but there's, I had competitors.
You go up against Skippy and see how well you do.
Jiff is the main, it is the main, but it got there through guys like me.
Shoe leather and knuckles.
Yeah.
Okay.
Well, I started Jiffy Spell with a G.
Y'all like the moneyball chip.
Like y'all were, you're like moneyball and baseball.
Like you're your first ones use analytics.
There's rich companies and there's poor companies.
And there's 50 feet of crap.
And then there's Pringles.
Wait a minute, man.
No, no, no, no, no.
We weren't that. That, that, uh, we were a good...
Was Pizza Licious a big deal for y'all? Was it like...
I think Pizza Licious, uh, uh, slated right in at like a number five in our flavor lineup.
Here's the thing, and it's a secret. Uh, the Red Can Original, Red Can, that you're doing about 80%
of the volume in that Red Can.
I don't know what's funny about this. I mean, this is important stuff.
It's a...
Number five in the flavor lineup.
Yeah.
So what is that?
Which they probably had it slated at a nine when they probably thought it was coming in at a nine.
You had Red Can Original as 80% of the business.
Yeah.
Okay. And then you had what we called right crisp.
Couldn't call it light.
We did call it light.
And then they said we couldn't because it wasn't,
it wasn't low fat enough back then.
So we had to call it right crisp.
It was in a silver can.
That was usually the number two.
So y'all didn't think about making the chip healthier.
You just said, we'll just change the name a little bit.
I mean, it was, it was healthier.
Yeah, it was.
It was healthier.
I mean, just not enough. Not enough. Not enough. When's it still? Yeah. I still think it was a little bit. I mean, it was healthier. Yeah, it was. It was healthier. I mean, just not enough.
Not enough.
Not enough.
When's it still?
Yeah.
I still think it was a smart choice.
I mean, you know, and then the green canned sour cream and onion, that's a solid, solid
flavor.
And then Cheez-Em's was probably a number of four.
And I'll tell you, and I lose sleep over it even today, we never got the barbecue product right.
We never got our fair share of the barbecue.
We didn't, and that's a big deal and shift,
a huge deal and shift.
I go barbecue a lot.
I go barbecue probably the most I would go of something.
And do you eat barbecue Pringles?
No. You don't.
No, that's true.
That's on us, man.
That is.
That is on us.
That's not on you.
That's not on you.
The fact that you guys own.
Yeah, you own up to it.
You own up to it.
I will go do more of your barbecue Pringles.
Yeah.
This is the 100th episode, right?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Pretty crazy.
Did you think we'd make it?
To 100?
Yeah.
I don't know.
I don't think I thought of it. You didn't think we'd make it, Brian a hundred? Yeah. I don't know. I don't think I thought of it.
You didn't think we'd make it.
Yeah.
Brian and I, you knew you'd get here.
When I look at both of y'all, I think, golly, how did y'all slip by me for a hundred episodes?
No, I don't know if I, no, I mean, I thought, you know, I don't know.
I don't know what I thought when we started it, but it's, you know, I mean, every time
I go to shows, people come up, they listen to it.
They love it.
I, it's, it is fun to do.
Uh, so it's great.
And I love that.
I mean, I love how much people are listening to it.
And so it's fun.
A hundred episodes.
So with a hundred episodes, uh, we, we are going to change up something a little bit.
And, uh, yeah, Bates, you go, you're moving up to my role, Bates.
I'm in your role.
Let's switch.
People voted and they wanted more Brian.
So, uh, we're going to change it up and we're adding a fourth, uh, co-host.
So it'll be four of us. And we're adding a fourth co-host. Oh, man.
So it'll be four of us.
I know people, you know, we've mentioned stuff like that.
I think it's fun.
I'm excited about it.
It's just another comic, another,
something that's funny that I think fits very well with us.
I believe we haven't blurred out right now.
And if, I mean, if you're at home, you're trying to guess, you can pause it.
If you want to pause it and try to take a shot.
I mean, you think they could never, you don't know who's going to
guess he's appeared on the show before.
Aaron, do you want to take a guess?
Would you have any idea?
Yeah, I got a pretty good, pretty good place blurred out, Aaron.
So how could you see him?
Can I guess?
Why did he, he took that?
Like it was a real beating.
I thought you were, I thought we were going to go play long.
You made it sound like I really just yelled at you.
Yeah.
It was a cower over here.
Yeah.
You go, I'm sorry.
How about that dude?
Huh?
Can I guess?
Yeah.
I'm going to say it's the guy that used to work with your sister.
Who's the big FedEx pro.
He is.
It is.
We brought him in.
He was great.
He was amazing.
Welcome to Nate Land, Dusty Slick.
All right.
All right.
We're having a good time.
Having a good time.
Wow.
That buildup really had me.
You know what I mean?
Like I was more nervous about
that buildup than going on shows.
Yeah. Well, we're, look, I think, uh, uh, we're big fans obviously, and I think you
fit well with us. Uh, you grew up poorer than all of us, which is nice.
Yeah. Bring in a real poor aspect to this. A lot of money floating around this table.
Yeah.
Well, we didn't have money.
Aaron comes from a pretty wealthy family.
That's right.
He comes from Royals.
Yes.
And then, but so me and Bates wanted to feel,
we wanted to be able to punch down and we were like,
well, who could we get?
Yes.
Oh, that's the thing.
It was in a trailer park.
That's right.
I brought food stamps with me this time around,
just to pass out, just so you knew what they looked like.
That's how we're paying them.
I am going to be in the Denver area in just a few weeks.
I'm excited to go see a Rockies game at Coors Field.
America's best baseball team.
It's awesome.
Well, it's one of the best places to watch a game.
It's awesome out there, which is why I want to give a shout out to today's sponsor. One of them SeatGeek with over 28 million downloads.
SeatGeek is the number one rated ticketing app.
It's the place to get tickets.
It's where I'm going to get tickets to this game.
It's not just sports though.
They have over 70,000 events listed, concerts, sports, festivals, and more.
Right now you can get tickets to the Lumineers, Lady Gaga, Post Malone and more.
I love using SeatGeek.
I got the app pulled up right on my phone.
You can get a nice seat map of whatever event
you're looking at.
It's all color coded.
So, you know, if it's green, then that's a good deal.
Green means go.
Get you a green.
If it's red, they go, you probably hold off
because that's a bad deal.
Aaron, I think that's the field that's green.
Maybe look at it.
No, Brian, what happens is you don't have good eyesight.
The seats are color coded too. Oh, okay. Yeah. My mistake.
Yeah. Brian should get seats close to the field just so he can see what's going on.
But if you're like me, you can, you can sit up in the nosebleeds,
every ticket's backed by their buyer guarantee. And I know, you know, I came through for you guys.
I did this.
I got us a promo code that you can use on SeatGeek.
Oh, yeah.
I came through in the class.
You can use code Nate10 for 10% off your next set of tickets at SeatGeek.
10% is significant.
That's a good deal.
If you're buying a bunch of tickets, 10% off, that's 10% off tickets
with promo code Nate10. Penny saved as a penny earned.
And imagine how many pennies 10% off could be.
Make sure you click the link in the description and download the app,
have the code automatically added to your account so you can use it later.
You don't even have to type it in. Thank you SeatGeek.
We have these bells too. We bought bells.
You walk around the bell and it like rings a little bit and a bear bell.
And so it's like enough to like, so the bear would hear you then because the
bear doesn't want to meet you, but it's like, if you walk up on it, it's, that's
when you can get in trouble.
The bell thing though, we wore it the first day and no one else had a bell.
And I felt so stupid as we're walking by these people like, ding, ding, ding.
And then I looked it up and people were like, yeah, those don't, you know, cause it's like,
they're not loud enough.
Like the bears hearing is like our hearing, I think.
And so it's like, you know, I don't know.
It's like, maybe it would work and it's not, you could do it, but it's, if you, I mean,
we're walking by children without bells.
And so I was like, all right, we were yelling, hey bear, so much.
And you just go, hey bear, just a group of family of four walks by.
You're like, and you're like, oh, you're a bear.
Uh, Paul D.
I think Hey Bear should be the response to hello folks.
I like that.
Yeah, that's fun.
You know, the last podcast I started with Hey Bear.
Yeah.
I love a nice Hey Bear.
Hey Bear.
A lady that gave me candy wrote a note and it said,
Hey Bear.
Yeah.
To me.
I like Hey Bear.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Could be good.
Is Hello Folks, I mean like, yeah, it's like Hey Bear.
So, you know, cause I do Hello Folks
and I do Let's Go Folks when we start the podcast.
Yeah, maybe Let's Go Bears.
Yeah.
Sounds like J.C we start the podcast. Yeah, maybe let's go bears. Yeah. That sounds like Jay Cutler.
Hey bear.
Yeah. A hay bear just got to pop in whenever. Yeah.
Hey bear feels like it's one that it pops in.
We were doing it on the trip and they're very funny to pop in a hay bear.
Yeah.
They just throw in a nice hay bear out of nowhere.
Yeah. You know, and if you're hiking and you do a hay bear and someone gives you a hello
folks back, then you know what's happening.
That's yeah.
You know what's going on.
Yeah.
Hello folks.
Yeah.
Hey, bear.
Hey, that is a pretty even let's go for like it is funny if someone goes, hello folks,
hey bear.
And then see, because then people will be very confused on that.
That could be, it could, y'all can, you know, I like it.
I like the less, I like people, you know, I'll talk to Harper and we were talking about
Hello Folks and Let's Go Folks and we said, what, I was like, what are you?
And she said, she thinks she's more Let's Go Folks.
But I like that there is a hello folks and let's go.
Like there is a, it is like, you know,
I met someone in Paso and they were, you know,
fewer hello folks and then one's like, I'm a let's go.
And it is like, you're like,
you kind of get who the person is.
Yeah.
And that, I do like that.
I do like Hey Bear.
Hey Bear.
All right.
Hello folks and Hey Bear. I like Hey Bear now. I got Hey Bear Bear. Hey Bear. All right. Hello folks and Hey Bear.
I like Hey Bear now.
I got Hey Bear all weekend for people.
It's fun.
Hey Bear is great.
It's like, it is the good route.
I think someone said it in the comments.
It's the best response.
The let's go folks.
Like, hey, if you say hello folks, you go Hey Bear.
Because it's such an opposite that it does.
So I, I agree.
I guess we take a vote.
The vote was Hey bear.
I've been getting some Hey bear too.
And I think I like when, like if a, if a lady says Hey bear to me, I'm like,
my wife is going to be upset about us.
Like people come up, they go, Hey bear.
And I'm like, I don't know if that's okay.
It sounds like you're already in another relationship
so much that y'all have nicknames for each other.
Right, right.
She's like, it can't even be like,
oh, did y'all just meet?
You're like, we've been dating for five to six years
and she calls me Bear and I go, hey Bear.
Well, as far as bear attacks,
it basically said don't do what you suggested.
Don't try to run from the bear.
The grizzly bear that is.
Because no one's trying it. They said they can run as fast as a horse.
Wow. It doesn't matter. It's the... It's the juice that they're shaking bake. Barry Sanders could evade a grizzly bear. Yeah, I bet so. I bet Barry Sanders could tackle a grizzly
bear. Well, he's a running back.
Now if you get...
But you tell me though he couldn't tackle it.
You tell me Barry Sanders couldn't tackle it.
Come on.
Come on.
Sound like a guy...
I feel like you slurred that too.
It did.
Sound like an old drunk Dusty.
You tell me, you say, you say, you say, you say, you say, you say, you say, you say, you
say, you say, you say, you say, you say, you say, you say Burger. And you're like, Dusty, are you driving?
Did you?
Bear Sands, you go look at me in the face.
You sound occasion.
Right now in the face, you go look at me in the eyes, face, and say,
Bear Sands, Bear Sands can't take best son, best son can take your bed.
Best son can take your bed.
Is that what you're gonna tell me?
Right?
Hey, all right, Dusty.
All right, bud.
This guy has something wrong with him.
Supposedly, I don't know for sure, but someone told me afterwards that I think
there could have been a fight that broke out.
You know, I got an email this morning from someone who said, was it the Late Show?
Yeah.
They apologized because they said his wife, her hair, I guess was hanging over the seat,
the guy behind him.
And the guy put his knee on her hair, like, you know, the pin it against the chair.
Yeah.
And they got into a, uh, not a fist fight, but they got in a big argument.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's what I heard.
So I sat in the second show.
I watched the whole thing.
It was awesome to just sit in the crowd and watch.
And I had a real out of character moment.
The guy in front of me, he, every joke you did, he would turn to his side and be
like, that's, I would turn to his side and be like,
I would do that.
Like relating to all your jokes, but in an annoying way.
And I had a really out of character moment.
I leaned forward, I grabbed the dude on the shoulder,
and I go, enough.
Whoa, wow.
Maybe that's what you heard.
It felt awesome.
Did his wife have long hair?
Yeah.
Aaron, is this what we're getting to?
It was you.
I said enough, dude.
And then I leaned back and I thought about the whole show, you know?
Right when the show ended, I go, hey, sorry about that, man.
He was like, no, it's fine.
I told you Arizona's wild.
It's too hot.
It's just too hot out there.
There's not enough humidity.
You need some.
But I've never confronted anybody in a moment like that.
Do you think that guy even knew what you meant by enough?
I don't think I know.
He heard the tone of my voice.
He knew what was going on.
He knew he was misbehaving.
So he's relating to Nate's comedy and have a good time and you told him to stop.
But you know, thousands of other people were doing that without conversing
about it right after the joke.
We needed you in the audience of the shows we did in Arizona.
Yeah, probably.
I had Aaron walk around just, if people,
and they laughed too loud, not high enough,
he would just keep them kind of at bay.
If they weren't really laughing, he's like, not enough.
Not enough.
Not enough.
And then if they started laughing too, I go,
what do we do? And if there's a shoulder, Hey, what do we do?
And if their hair was too long, he would just pin it to the
chair. Yeah.
I don't know why we throw our trash to Saturn. I've always
said that.
Yeah.
Shipping the trash off.
Yeah, we got.
Haul it to outer space.
Yeah. And send it to one of these garbage planets that nothing, what does it matter?
It's just like, you just gotta get, everything's gonna burn up and then
become a ring.
So you just start like launching.
It's not a bad idea.
People magazines up there.
No it is.
It is a bad idea.
If they can find a way to do it, cost a.
Yeah, sure.
Someday.
Yeah.
Yeah.
The cost is we're making the cost up. So it's like, yeah, just do it. Yeah, yeah, sure. Someday. Yeah. Yeah. The cost is we're making the cost up.
So it's like, yeah, just do it.
Yeah, just do it.
I mean, it's not, we're not calling another planet to ask for money for, but
first we need to take our trash to the moon.
Well, every time we launch a rocket, take a little trash.
Yeah.
Oh, hey, you're already up there.
Yeah.
Do you think it's ethical to just launch space out into the, the
a bit of trash into the abyss?
Well, well, I mean, you got Saturn.
That's not what's the point of it.
Target it and shoot it right into Saturn.
So it just brings up.
Yeah.
I mean, there's no point to, yeah, you know, just an empty vacuum up there.
Right.
Yeah.
If the aliens come and go, Hey, you guys been the ones dubbing all this trash here. And then we'll go, honestly, we didn't know you were out there.
They'll understand.
Have an ongoing argument. I think that if ants were as intelligent as humans on average,
on average that the ants would be able to take over humans and kill them all. There
are 2.5 million ants per one human and they are strong. My
son disagrees that they humans would be able to take them out. What do you think?
I think humans still win.
I don't know. If they're as smart as we are.
Two and a half million to one?
Yeah.
Your entire body, I mean, like, that means, let's say it takes, I don't even know if it
would take half a million to cover your whole body.
How many do you think it would take?
Let's say, just say if it's 500,000 ants, it covers your entire body.
Like they could crawl in your body.
That means it's out of every human, there's four kind of things that go.
Well, I guess it depends like where are we starting from?
The ants, where they're at right now,
and then all of a sudden they get smart?
Because we already got chemicals, right?
So if the war just began, we could just start killing them.
Yeah.
Just massive, everybody kill all the ants.
Yeah.
Well, what does it mean for them to have human intelligence?
Can they all of a sudden talk like human beings
and communicate with each other?
I think it's like a father and son having fun
and y'all are not.
And that's a part of it.
I just think if we were like, all right,
we're at war with the ants.
You believe in the human spirit.
Yeah, we gotta turn it up
and we gotta go AWOL on these ants.
I don't know what AWOL is, but we gotta. The only, uh hard to, they get underground, they get, they could just hide and then they
can be planted.
The other thing is too, you could go to the water, you'd go to the ocean.
Yeah.
But then if they get on your boat, it's, it's bad news, but you would, you would go to the
ocean.
I guess you'd have to get out on water.
But I think you're saving grace if you're a human being, is these ant colonies are not gonna be,
there's no central organization with the ants.
These colonies are gonna be acting independently
because they have no way to communicate with each other.
So an ant colony in India is not gonna communicate
with a fire ant colony in Alabama, right?
So they're just gonna be these sort of independent groups
moving around trying to take out humans.
We have the power of communication with each other.
We can coordinate, we can combine our efforts.
I like our chances.
I mean, there's just two and a half million to one.
I mean, do the math on that.
What's how many people on earth?
Just past eight billion, right?
So do eight billion and then what's times two and a half
million?
I have it here.
It's like 40 quadrillion or something.
I mean. But are they, where are they dispersed across the globe?
But you can even gas into an anthill 20 light at 20 quadrillion.
They're all gone. It's a number that's unimaginable. Yeah.
Well, we can relocate to an island.
These ants can't swim across water.
Eight million people can't go to what about anteaters?
We would train anteaters and they would be on our team.
There you go. This is like infinity war and Avengers,
but there were so many of those creatures that they overtook us, remember?
Ant eaters would be on our side. I think it just never stops. It's just
sheer numbers for you. That seems to be the thing holding you back.
Well, 20 quadrillion is not even a number. It's so much that it's not even, and it's
just the sheer force. I mean, just think of it, you had to fight two and a half million
ants. Could you beat two and a half million ants?
I could.
In a room.
With all the resources of the US government? Yeah, I think I could.
No, no, no. It's got to be, I'm breaking it down just one-on-one.
Okay.
You in a room with two and a half million ants.
How big's the room?
It also depends on a half million ants. How big's the room?
It also depends on the type of ants.
Airplane hanger, I hope.
Right, if it's these little sugar ants, easy.
I win.
But if it's army ants.
Fire ants.
Army, like the army ants that you see in like the jungles in Africa, I mean they will tear you up.
Now those are the ones that are scary.
Spectricide would be the front line of defense.
Yeah, ants can't hide from spectricide.
Do you think you'd get drafted?
Yeah, I think so.
I think you'd be a general.
You're talking about these kind of ants right here
with these pinchers on them?
Yeah, I mean, now those-
These are terrifying.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I mean, I've seen them tear apart animals
on the National Geographic.
But just imagine if this thing had hopes and dreams
and aspirations and ambition.
But I think the ants would get jealous of each other and they would be like, well, the
army ants are really taking over.
And I don't like that.
There's going to be some internal issues with these ants.
Yeah.
But you're acting like we're doing just in general a great job as a country.
We're pulling this together better than these ants are.
We're a mess right now.
The ants are loyal.
You think ants are sitting around having this discussion right now? there's loyalty. I think there's loyalty between ants.
I think push comes to shove, there's loyalty among humans too.
I have to believe that.
Right now we're not faced with the ant war.
Somebody comes on the news tomorrow and goes,
the ants have risen up. They're smarter than us.
We don't care about aliens.
There's not 20 quadrillion aliens on the planet.
We don't know. There's a lot ofillion aliens on there. We don't know.
There's a lot of big space out there.
That's true.
And we're starting throwing trash at them.
That's a good point.
I think we could take the ants.
Yeah.
You think you could beat two and a half million ants?
I think so.
I say no.
Sugar ants?
The sheer number would just over-
They're as smart.
Anything that you can think of, they can think of.
So just remember that.
I would say give me any-
So they could figure out talking or they could figure out-
I think 25 to 30 smart ants would take me out.
25 to 30?
Do I get a weapon?
They would take my gun.
They would pistol whip me.
25 to 30, yeah.
I will take the Emu side.
So we can't just have this dominant.
So who wants, I'm comfortable taking the Emu side.
Who wants to take the lion side?
Bates?
I'm going lion turn, zero chance in my opinion.
I'll jump on Emu.
All right.
I'll jump on Emu here.
So we...
I like this, I like the debate. So we, we, we, we, I like this.
I like the debate.
You get to get talked into, you get to get talked into five interesting facts about Emu's.
Uh, an Emu's feathers cannot, cannot be so soft.
That's not a good strong.
I mean, who wrote, like who wrote that sentence?
The Emu?
Like he, an Emu's feather cannot, can you, an emu's feathers, I thought it said father
at first.
That's probably true too.
An emu's father cannot be so soft, so they grow up in hard times.
Right, a chip on the shoulder.
They grow up in hard times.
It can't be soft, but it can't be, it cannot be too.
An emu has been through it.
A lion is like, you know, you're like, you're the rich kid that just...
And they're very family-oriented.
They got nuclear families.
They all stay together.
Yes.
The lion grew up, no problems.
No problems.
No hardships.
No hardships.
An emu, out of the womb, he's fighting.
He's scrapped.
Oh, yeah.
And his feathers...
The way this emu wrote this, they also can be soft, but they also
cannot be so soft.
Right.
So like, I mean-
It's not always so soft.
He's saying, listen, sometimes it is, but not all the time.
Emus have the strongest legs.
That's enormous.
Strongest legs.
Big legs.
It does not say, I don't know what it compares to.
There's no comparison.
But-
Compared to an ostrich. Yeah. Compared to an ostrich.
Yeah.
Compared to the other birds.
But it has, so I'm assuming, the strongest legs
of anything and everything.
So the kicking power is wild.
The running power.
That's going to translate to speed.
We're running away.
It's, I mean, there's part of me that's going,
a lion's going to go into this pretty cocky and an emu is going to just light it up. This thing squats more than an elephant here.
Like they're, you know, like this is like the piranha, like emu feels like a piranha, like it's
just like, it's like a velociraptor. Yes. Like a velociraptor beat a T-Rex. Yeah. So, you know,
when we had this bracket, you would say there's no way.
Where?
Yeah.
On Jurassic Park.
I don't know.
The movie.
It did?
Yeah. It was at the end. The blue, it beats the one. Well, then they fight at the end,
but yeah, I think it does at the end. I don't know if it does, but.
I think it did.
T-Rex is...
Yeah, I guess it did. T-Rex is... Yeah, I guess they... Belisa Raptor is just like, it just be, it's just all over.
Like when something's so big, that's like when Royce Gracie used to fight the,
in Old MMA stuff and he'd fight like a big, big like sumo guy.
It's like, that gets so tired.
But we just had a debate about a polar bear possibly losing to a Siberian tiger,
but now an emu beats a
lion. Well we're taking the I'm trying to make it fun. I think you gotta have some
upsets here. Yeah you gotta have some upsets. I think this is because this just
happened in the tournament this year the one seed comes in yeah and you know if
they if they sleep they take it for granted they're gonna go down. Give me
those other facts of the email.
Let me read the rest of it.
Let's play the fight out.
Let's play the fight out.
Well, I just want to finish this fact.
Back to the get more fun.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I was reading them in some reason that prompted to go to a different
page.
They started to get bad.
I said, uh, that's why I want you to keep reading.
Yeah.
M's have a pouch in their throat for communication.
Now this is trash talk.
I'd imagine some kind of like maybe walkie talkie, maybe the first next tale.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Uh, they have a pouch in their throat for communicate, like they don't even
waste their time for, what do they put in that pouch?
Their phone?
You know what it could put in that pouch? Their phone? You know what it could put in that pouch?
A weapon.
Right.
So now, this emu, because look at it.
You think it's playing by the rules?
No.
There's no playing by the rules.
That's cheating.
It's an emu cheats.
That anything can happen.
So I think an emu has now got probably a gun.
We're going to go ahead and say it. The emu brought a gun into this fight. The emu is armed. The emu does probably a gun. Right. We're gonna go ahead and say it. The emu brought a gun
into this fight. The emu is armed. The emu does have a gun. So the emu gets a gun. Because
it has a pouch and it can hide it and we did not check the pouch because we didn't know
they had a pouch. Where's a lion putting a gun? We look at emus don't have arms so how's
he gonna shoot it? It does it anyway. It has it's automatic automatic. So look, it's, look at this situation.
What was I saying?
The emu, cause when you frisk, look at, you frisk something, you
don't ever frisk someone's throat.
That's true.
So why would you frisk?
We would be so busy in the feathers and we don't know that he's got.
Which cannot be so soft.
That, yeah, that we go like, I cannot believe how not soft this is.
You might even cut yourself trying to get the gun
Yeah, and you're just like shaking it and just like some dust
It looks like you're shaking a you know dust is flying out and you're like, I don't think he's good and we don't even know
That in his throat
He has a gun you ever use a toilet with the with the padded seats. Yeah, I don't care. I don't care for I don't like it either
I always do you like it? I didn't mind it. It's probably nice to if it's your own home.
It's like a boat. Yeah. If you're if somebody else has got one, great.
Yeah. But if you got to deal with the.
The upkeep, I bet it's not fun.
What's the upkeep? Yeah, what's going on?
I mean, I imagine it's.
I mean, you got a way to come to a sport. You get back to the form.
Memory foam.
You got to fluff it.
Doug, I'm thinking it's all been out of.
Lucy's like, and yeah, I know who's been in here.
Told you to use the other bathroom.
It's got an air pump.
But I did it to Harrison Budger, who is the kicker for the chiefs.
And he went to Georgia tech.
So I was like, dude, tough miss go jackets.
And then I was like, you've got like a trend going on, you know, tough miss.
Yeah.
Or something.
It's funny actually that not to
know because I was like that's the connection I have but I didn't go there.
Yeah, it's like my brother's got in I didn't get in. Yeah, but that's how I have to do every vanity thing I have to go. I didn't go there. Go Jackets.
There you go. But you say Jack Jacket jacket jacket.
Is it a golden jackets?
Yellow jacket, yellow jacket, yellow jacket.
Go Jack.
Go Jack.
Go Jack.
Tough miss.
Go Jackets.
Let me see what I actually got to.
He doesn't even know what's going on.
What'd you say?
Sorry. Let me see what I actually said to him. He doesn't even know what's going on.
What'd you say?
Sorry.
Dylan Lee, Plays for the Braves.
October 30th.
This must have been the World Series.
No shame in that start, my man.
Proud of you, bro.
You ever met him before?
No shame in that stuff.
Hold on.
My man.
I think it's worth it.
Oh no.
That was October 30th, 2021.
He responds August 16th, 2022.
Just saw this message.
Thank you.
From a game a year ago. He goes, what are we doing? All this message. Thank you.
He goes, what are we doing? October 30th.
You got to remember it.
He goes, man, that's my aunt's birthday.
Uh, oh, world series.
This lunatic.
It goes so shame that no shame.
That's dark.
Love your brother.
I don't even know this guy.
He's got a reply.
I'm crying.
Because of the blue check mark he has to go.
I guess I gotta respond back to the, don't ever forget where he came from.
Because it was.
The go jackets.
I remember that specifically because it was a bullpen start.
We only have three starters.
So like we, we had a bullpen game and they were like, I guess we're starting Dylan Lee.
No shame in that.
Yeah.
Who shouldn't be out there.
No shame in that brother.
Love you.
Proud of you making me proud.
You making us proud.
Go Jackets.
Couldn't be prouder.
I am told a story and I'm sure you'll tell it,
but we're just to preface it.
We were telling like the worst joke you've ever told.
Okay.
That maybe I heard from someone else.
Yeah, but Brian's was about his own joke.
But it's about something you maybe took pride in at the time,
but now looking back, it's really cringey or whatever.
Now, Brian, set the seed for this.
This is so funny.
Well, I don't even know if I completely remember the joke,
but it was something about when I was single,
I would ask, are there any single ladies here?
And then maybe one, whatever.
And I say, oh, I admit shingle ladies. We have shingle ladies here and then maybe one, whatever. I say, oh, I met shingle ladies.
We haven't seen ladies here with shingles.
And I told that joke for a while.
Is that the whole joke?
Yes.
I mean shingles ladies.
Oh, and he said the part ladies with shingles, the disease shingles.
I wanted to clarify.
Yeah, that was one of my go-to's when I first started out.
Oh, that's the worst I've ever heard.
There's no more to it.
I mean, that's the part I remember.
At this point, Aaron, it got up from the table.
So I couldn't just imagine.
Oh, I mean Shingles ladies.
You get it? That's when I first started. There's one of my go-to. Hey, I thought it was honesty time here. Yeah. Yeah. Sometimes all you need is to set it aside as a comic and then you can revisit
it. Yeah. I want you to bring that joke back. Dust it off a bit. Yeah. Go any, I mean Shingles
ladies, I'm married, okay. I'm not looking for the
single women. Oh, there you go. It's a different spin on it.
Yeah. Tell them why you're looking for ladies with shingles.
What do you, cause you know, you're like, I want my daughter
to get chicken box.
It's actually a good bit.
We got a great punchline. Yeah.
It's actually a good bit.
Yeah.
Fix the joke.
That's gonna open his third drive.
Yeah.
I mean, that's a good bed.
I like it.
Yeah.
We know the name of my new drive.
Our special shingle ladies.
Question mark.
All the shingle ladies.
Yeah.
If you'd like to, you should put some cream on it.
If you like it, you should put some cream on it. So I was at, my wife and I toured a daycare today and didn't, you know, seemed okay.
Didn't know a lot about it.
Then I go to-
For who?
He's back baby!
For my daughter.
And then I'm at the grocery store and there's a car there with a bumper sticker for that
daycare.
So I thought, man, I'd love to see this person just ask them some thoughts on this.
Mike, what's the problem?
Did you wait for them?
Like a creep?
As I was coming out, don't get ahead of me.
As I was coming out of Kroger,
sure enough, there's a woman getting in that car
and I thought I'm gonna go over there
and ask her about this daycare.
But I wanted to look natural.
Like I just happened to be walking by
and hey, I know this whatever you grab a cart an empty cart
I had bags in my hand. Oh
She gets in the car a little bit faster than I would anticipate it. So it was kind of far away
But I don't yell but she sees me
So I don't want to just stop and like turn around then it would look like I was coming after her so I keep walking
Just like I'm going to my car. And I'm like, well, as soon as she pulls out and leave,
I'll turn around and go back to my car.
But she doesn't pull out immediately.
So I have to keep walking and pretending with my bags,
like I'm going to my car.
And I had a-
And have you passed her car?
I've passed her.
Okay.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And I keep looking back and she's still sitting there.
So I have to keep pretending like I'm walking in my car, walking through the Kroger parking
lot and she doesn't leave.
Eventually I'm going to be late for this podcast if I don't get out of here.
So I eventually had to just like turn around and then kind of make a circle around her
like I lost my car.
It was about a 15 minute extra experience.
So you walk by her.
Yeah.
Cars to your right, you walked past her,
and then you had to cut through the cars
and then start walking down to the front of her car,
down the middle of the aisle.
I didn't come right back to her.
I kind of circled around like, where's my car?
And then so you make a circle around,
so you circle her and then you talk to her?
No, no, no, no, no, no, no. I mean, at this point I was just trying not to be conspicuous, but, you know, it
kind of drug out longer than I thought.
Yeah.
I think it's a good message to people.
That's why you don't put bumper stickers on your car.
It's you got, you got these kind of people that are going to come up and, you
know, a grandfather's like, we're talking about taking my baby to that daycare.
And she's like, what?
She goes, you have a baby?
That's what they think.
You get that lady, he's probably 28 years old.
She's exactly the age you would have a baby in.
This old man that's got his milk and bread.
Excuse me.
Is there a lot of kids in that daycare?
What's the age group?
You need to get away.
I was in Dayton last weekend and I did a radio interview to promote the show.
And you guys know when you call in the radio station, typically they go, all right,
we're going to, we're going live in three, two, one, or they go, we're going
to start recording now, right?
I call into this radio station, it's the local country station and they were so
nice, but I did not know that as soon as the call started, we were going on this
interview.
So the entire interview, I thought we were making small talk before the
interview started, I gave the worst 15 minutes of radio anybody's ever heard.
Uh, she goes, I answered the phone and she goes, so you're going to be
in Dayton this weekend.
I go, yeah, I just had the, yeah, we just had a family funeral that I just came back from.
And I was like, oh yeah, it's been like tough, like logistically it's been real tough, but,
but yeah, I mean, I'm excited being dating for sure.
And she goes, oh my God, I'm so sorry.
Are you okay?
I go, yeah, I'm, I'm good.
I think I got some kind of science infection or something.
I was like, after this call, I'm going to go to urgent care and hopefully
they'll just give me a steroid shot and she's kind of like, she's
trying to be an interviewer, right?
And she goes, so like, what, what can we expect from the shows this weekend?
And I go, hopefully it's better than last year.
Cause I was like, I'm just talking candidly to her.
I go last year, the shows are fun, but like it was supposed to be three
shows and then they had to make it too.
So I don't know if it stays at three shows, I'll be pretty pumped.
And then she goes, and that was comedian Aaron Webber.
And I was like, Oh my God, dude.
And then the call and then the call ends, like it hangs up.
And I was like, if anybody heard that, they were like, what type of
comedy does this guy do?
He just complains about his life.
Yeah. And then last week I went to the Preds game and I got to do a couple of things.
I did a little interview with Bally Sports and then I got to wind the
the wrong direction.
The fan. Well, well, I'll tell you, the lady goes, I go, which way do I go?
She goes, either way you go, it will make the sound.
And I go, okay.
And she goes, but it's going to take a couple, you know, to catch, catch on.
So I'm winding and then it's never catching.
So I just on my own go, you know, I'm switching directions.
And then I, and then I got it going.
Is that actually making the noise?
It is.
They have the microphone up to it.
Oh, okay. But as you can see, if you look around at the fans and the audience while I'm doing it,
nobody cares. They're not getting fired up. Look how red your face is.
I know. I think a little bit of that is that screen like that because other people's face
look pretty red back there too. Yeah. But man, I mean, it's like you come up for air.
Mine is so red.
But, but look at that girl back here.
I mean, her face is so red too.
Yeah, but look at yours.
I think she's black.
But look, I mean, yeah, my face is super red.
I mean, dang, I mean, I get, I'm working.
Listen, but look at her face back there. I mean, I get, I'm working. Well, but look at her face back there.
I mean, come on, put the mouse and what, what faces are you talking about?
This guy, that girl's got makeup on.
Yeah.
Like I'm saying, the screen is changing our faces.
She's not a clown.
She didn't wear red makeup.
I mean, it ain't yours.
Yeah, but I'm working here too.
I mean, I'm, listen, I got a special called working man.
I can't be work not working that.
Yeah, there.
Yeah.
I mean, come on guys.
Yeah.
My face is a little red, but I'm working.
Yeah.
These people are just standing around.
Oh, that's great.
Yeah.
I saw the, uh, the tweet of you just sitting at the, uh, you just sitting at
the desk, I was like, we got dusty analyzing hockey out here.
Well, they didn't ask me any hockey questions.
I wish they would have, you know, they got guys skate under four seconds.
You didn't say something about hockey.
Uh, well, no, I was, well, I did say that I'm just amazed.
People can even skate much less skate and hit the smallest
Other than golf the smallest ball if you will. Mm-hmm. Yeah, my face is that's like look at red that is
That's what I'm saying. There's no way my face is that red
That's yeah, no one else's face is red
That's, yeah. No one else's face is red. But this thing's name roll back there is red.
I mean, not like that. Like, I mean, you look like a different person.
Yeah, but I mean, if my face is that red, I'm stroking out out there.
Well, I mean, you look like a miner they got under the ground.
They just brought him up an hour ago and they said, you want to do the Pratt's thing?
Because he's been underground for a month.
I mean, I'm not denying it, but that can't be reality though.
You know what I mean?
And he just saw the sun.
You look like, you remember the wrestler brother love?
Yeah.
That's what you look like.
I know.
I mean, that's what I'm saying, but that can't, I'm just saying
it's got to be some effects of the screen.
Look at that thing.
I don't know what could the effects be.
I don't know.
But I think because the other people around you don't look like that.
But you know, if I look like that and I'm walking around out there, people will be like,
you okay?
Well, I mean, right in that moment, it's, yeah, you're tired.
I mean, it's intense.
I'm not denying it.
It's a wild red.
Little surprise, I think, for everybody listening.
We are here in Paducah, Kentucky.
I've got to take these off.
We're at about two-thirds of the solar eclipse.
I never heard about the eclipse before Laura asked me about it.
I didn't know that was happening
Did you do you know if you heard of an eclipse? I saw the last one?
Yeah, the
Clips the rapper
All right, who's gonna explain it which one of the five us is gonna explain?
You don't know what it is you John cuz you don't know what it is. What is it?
Well, if so, this is the moon going in front of the sun. So, we're on earth. Start there.
Yeah. Okay. I usually only do the moon behind the sun but
but when the moon. That's usually when I go out but it's
I thought if it's in the middle. Yeah, I do a moon
behind the sun. I do that every year. One of them can't
happen. Yeah, how does that happen? The moon go behind
the sun. It never just the moon never just goes. How big
would that be if that happened?
That would be dead. We'd be dead way before that. Yeah, yeah.
There's just a little sliver of the sun still visible. It looks like, well, it's dark. If
you look back that way, it's dark. There's a plane. So it was interesting to see, there is,
there was a flight. You think that's that Delta flight. So there was a Delta flight. That might
be it. Could be. And there was a Delta flight that was flying,
people booked it to fly the...
The path.
Fly with it.
The path.
Everybody's on it to see the eclipse.
Aaron's trying to get to a week.
Is that Venus right there?
Monday night show.
Aaron's on the way back.
I think that is Venus.
That's Venus right there, yeah.
No.
Yeah, yeah, I see Venus all the time.
It's one of the planets.
Are you guys going no sunglasses now?
I'm gonna run the bathroom real fast and I'll be ready. Oh you can see the shape of the
moon now. It's crazy. It's crazy. And when it finally goes. If you're listening to
home it's getting dark. It's getting dark. It's it's completely over. Can you get it
with the camera? Oh you got a camera. Alright. There it is. They know what
they're doing. It looks so close looks it's complete. It looks insane
I just get sunglasses on sunglasses on it's going backwards glasses up. Oh, it's going the wrong direction. Yeah, I
Tell you what it felt like the Sun did a that is I
Mean the precision don't look at you can't look at it anymore. Don't look at anymore with no
But I looked at it before when it was like that, man. Yeah. You OK?
I don't know.
When does it kick in?
The next day.
That's what they said.
The next day is I'll be blind?
That is Venus.
Look, Venus is going away.
I'm going to see some stuff today, man.
We saw Venus.
Yep.
How about that?
And then it's just daytime again.
Wow.
Yeah.
That's pretty cool.
Yeah.
That's awesome, man.
Man, I believe it. So this one. You're already over it. That's awesome, man. Man, I believe it.
So this one...
You're already over it.
It's not done yet.
I mean, Aaron's got to call it 205.
It's barely a sliver and you're still, you're just, you're through.
Guys got to get to that open mic.
Yeah.
Because you think, Aaron, in a normal life right now, you would be done pumping gas and then go in the store?
Like maybe you would've stayed at your truck
just because you'd have been like, look at that.
And then once it clicked, you'd go inside
and then be frustrated that the guy's outside looking
and you're not inside.
Let's go!
And so you think you would eat the donuts.
You'd eat one pack and then go,
I'm not paying for both these packs
I'll pay for one pack. I'll tell you what I'd already be back inside by now
Yeah, if I were just at home, I'd go alright
How do you gasp at the iPhone and then and then this which one do you use more often?
The Sun I know but this is just yeah
Yeah, yeah. Yeah, that's a good one. The sun is a great place.
Much more often.
Yeah, the sun's involved.
Yeah.
It's pretty...
Yeah, yeah.
It's just...
It is amazing.
I don't want to sound like I'm...
I think this is the perfect...
This is pretty cool right here.
Yeah.
This is a weird...
Yeah.
This is not your normal dusk.
This is your favorite part of the eclipse.
I think so.
Yeah. The wind and the guys being together dusk. Yeah. This is your favorite part of the eclipse. I think so. Yeah. The wine guys being together. Yeah. I think maybe in the beginning of, you know, being a public figure
that it would bother me. But at this point, wow. I mean, no, I'm not saying I come on guys.
We're all public figures. I don't think Andrew Jackson ever said that about himself.
You don't think that you're public figures though?
You don't say it.
Oh, okay.
You don't say anything.
But what I mean is you're a person who's decided.
How often do you tell people you're a public figure?
That may be the first time I've ever said it.
No, I think you tell a lot of people.
I think you walk in and go, I'm a public figure.
That's what he tells Uber drivers.
And they go, what do you do for a living? Yeah, he goes, I'm a public figure. Yeah, they're the public figure. I don't think I'm a public. I think he tells Uber drivers and they go, what do you do for a living?
Yeah.
Because I'm a public public figure.
Yeah.
I don't think I'm a private.
Go ahead.
But I, yeah, Brian's a figure, but I think that he was dying for the public to know
about it, that they just won't listen.
But public figure is better than saying, you know, a famous person or whatever. But you're
like, you've put yourself on this. Some people know who I am. I can say something like that.
Or just say I'm a comedian. But is public figure not better than people know who I am?
I mean, the Kardashians are public figures, I guess. They are very famous people. Yeah. Being
in the cultural zeitgeist, you know. I just think that we've decided to put most of our lives on display.
A-list celebrity. And so now people can call you out on everything you wear,
everything you say, every word you pronounce, every, uh, you know,
every move you make. I'm not the most public of public figures,
but as cultural tastemakers, we need to.
Yeah. Hello, folks. Hello folks and hey Barry welcome to the inland podcast.
I'm Nate Barghetzi, Brian Bates, Aaron Weber, Dusty Slay.
All right.
And surprise.
Boom.
We are in a new studio.
Here we are.
Yeah.
I mean, this is, we, I don't think anybody knew this was happening.
Uh, y'all knew, but even we kind of doubted it.
Yeah.
You know, we had been seeing, you know, I had seen the room and it was, uh, it was empty.
Yeah.
And this is it.
They've done a great job.
Uh, this is a new studio.
Uh, it's out of my house.
I get my, my, that room gets to become an office.
I've never had an office.
And you get your house back.
Get my house back.
That was a, yeah, that's, uh, I enjoy that.
And I think it feels, it feels better to leave your home to go to work.
I'm sure people, you know, that work from home.
So it's like nice to get out and go do something.
I'm sure your dog will miss me.
Yeah. Oh yeah. I think we're all, you know.
I went to your house today.
Yeah.
Just sat there.
Yeah.
I thought, I guess everybody's running late.
Yeah.
So yeah, this is it.
They've done an unbelievable job with this, the Daily Pod Guys.
This is a map behind us of old Hickory, but you got some new photos.
Still.
It's heavy me, but it's Nate heavy, but we got stuff.
There is a lot of me stuff.
And I mean, look, the second y'all start putting a den in show business, I
think we will get your stuff on.
Krispy Kreme had, if you bring in your report card for every A, you get a donut.
Wow.
We'll talk about incentivizing.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah, that is pretty good.
That would be a good ascent.
They should, they still do that?
I don't know.
I don't know if it was just the one by our house.
Is that how you got in Notre Dame?
Straight A's this whole childhood.
This guy's killing it.
What if we will find out it wasn't,
Krispy Kreme never did this. It was just your family.
Krispy Kreme's like, I don't even know what he's talking about.
They walk in, he's like, let me go in there first to make sure they're still doing it.
He's like, when my son comes in.
When my son comes in, yeah.
A 12 year charade.
He goes, I don't even know if they're open.
Let me run in real fast.
And his dad goes, hey, I got a son.
You're going to, you're noticed.
And...
There's a senior photo.
How we know it's him. You'll know who I'm talking about.
Yeah.
Cause that, that picture is sitting in the back of the van.
He's going to get.
Listen, when this kid comes in, he's going to show you his report card and
he's like, are you still doing the thing?
Oh yeah, we're still doing it.
We're still doing it.
I think I got a funny new tour name for you.
Bates.
All right.
Let's hear it.
I'm here.
Bates is tour is called easier to drive.
It's just a tour.
Every gig you get, you know, you want to fly.
You got, I think it's just easier if you drive.
It's never, it's always in the city where there's going to be a layover.
You're not writing it down.
You only take bookings.
None of them are flights.
They're go, can I fly there?
They go, you can't, but I, to be honest, it's probably easier just to drive it.
That's not what I was hoping for, but.
No, that's a good, that's a good one. it's probably easier just to
Yeah. Different parts of the state.

Not only is Aaron the best ad reader, but he's also the best impressionist.
Oh, what impressions.
Thank you very much.
Was that good?
Well, thank you so much.
Best compared to me and Brian, two guys that do no impressions.
Yeah, that's how the word best works.
Yeah.
So I'll email you right now and I'll do it.
Um, Christopher Walken. I, that's all the word. Talking about that's all the word best works. So I'll email it right now and I'll do it. Um, Christopher walking.
I'm gonna need more cowbell.
It's really good.
You didn't even try to do it.
I closed my eyes for a second.
Talking about Christopher walk.
That was Christopher walking.
I want to be more cowbell.
That's how you did it.
Just now.
I don't even think that is that Christopher walking that does that.
Yeah.
That's him in that sketch.
Is it him saying it?
Yeah.
Oh, okay.
Got a fever.
Will Ferrell's.
Hold on.
Hold on.
Do it.
Do it.

I've already nailed it.
I want to hear it.
My favorite Christopher walking is from Joe dirt though.
Can you do any of those?
I haven't seen Joe dirt.
Give me somebody else.
I can do anybody.
I just, I don't like. Obama.
Michelle or Barack.
Let's do president Barack.
President. Okay. Um, well,
is he point? Is he a point? That was a sassy Barack. Well, well, let me be clear.
Hear me out. The point is I do good impressions.
You guys are jealous.
You said throw out anyone.
He gave you the easiest one.
Arnold Schwarzenegger.
We do that.
Get to the chopper.
See, they all see I'm killing it.
All your impressions seem more feminine than you are.
Right.
You get more feminine. Like that. Well, I'm saying I'm not saying I'm saying you. All your impressions seem more feminine than you are. Right. You get more feminine.
Don't say it like that.
Well, I'm saying I'm not saying I'm saying you're not a feminine person.
That's right.
But when you wear brunt, but when you do an impression, they get feminine.
Get to the get to the chopper.
Well, compared to me, Arnold is feminine.
Well, I'm saying, OK, I'll give you that.
Get to the chopper.
Get to the chopper.
I actually do. Have you heard Brian do impressions? I mean, yeah, I'll give you that. Get to the chopper. Get to the chopper. You can actually do, have you heard Brian do impressions?

Most of those standardized tests are biased
except the math portion, the math, math university.
Are you doing the impression now?
Yeah.
Oh.
You couldn't tell?
No. I was nailing it. You couldn't tell? No.
I was nailing it.
I thought you were doing you.
No, that was Lawrence Fishburne.

telling us what he was about to say.
Like these are the words I'm gonna use
as Lawrence Fishburne.
Go ahead.
That's him.
All right, well dude, okay.

Jake has taken the money and he's leaving with it now.
And he's, he's out of options.
Okay.
And the people in this neighborhood have turned on it.

Let me tell you, I know, I know, but, but let me, I'ma just give you some notes.
Okay.

I don't have a pen, but go ahead.
Tell me if I'm wrong, but this sounds exactly like
the way you just described the scene.
Like, it was, right?
It was the same voice.
Man, I'm a nuanced actor, but I wasn't done.
Okay, I'm sorry, you, but I wasn't done. Okay.
