All right. Welcome back to episode 0.8.7 of the OK podcast powered by the Stranko. I'm your host, Grant Broji. And we are recording in the US of A, the United States of America. Today's date is December the 9th in the year of our Lord. 2025, 2025 is almost over, but we're still in it. We're going to finish strong like Bitcoin. The price of Bitcoin is $92,451. Some people are worried about Bitcoin right now. Bitcoin goes in four-year cycles.

It's kind of like American politics. It's kind of like Auburn head coaches. It's kind of like Texas A&M being ranked. You go on a cycle, you hit a high, and then the next cycle starts. South Carolina. And then, oh, no, no, we're different. We're not four-year cycle. cycles. We're generational cycles. Yeah, this is a four-year cycle. We're a generational team. It hasn't happened to my generation, but I'm hoping for my daughter's sake it might. In any event, whatever the highest high was the last cycle will be, we got to get beneath that in the new cycle. So you're going to see a dip, buy the dip. Always buy the dip. This is not financial advice, but buy the dip. Bitcoin will be fine. We're 9,000. Remember, remember, this.

this podcast two years old, so we're like halfway through a cycle, and we're still up over 100%. So don't fade on my guy. Buy yourself some Bitcoin. You'll be glad you did one day. We got a lot to talk about today. There's a ton to talk about. Trace chomping at the bit over there talking about all sorts of things. But I'm joined. See, I'm getting ahead of myself. I'm getting excited about Bitcoin in the next cycle. I'm joined in studio via the internet from Major Jeff Bouget, currently not in a drilling status, recently off orders, never technically on orders, just in a drilling status, but now he's a Marine 24-7, 365, but he's not in a drilling status at the moment.

He comes from the greater Salt Lake City area, greater Salt Lake City area. He's not a Mormon. He is a BYU fan by nature of living there, but really he's an Auburn fan. And former athlete, still an athlete, being an athlete, it's like being a Marine, once an athlete all of always an athlete baseball player there at emerson well fun fact there look up some emerson alumni we'd love to talk about it sometime and also joining me you know last week i pulled it out of my behind and it was a real city uh so i feel like i'd do the same thing again do it again yeah do it again all right i'll you at the ready to search for it trace yeah okay i'm thinking

We love a nothing for the group. We love it. My goodness. As a quick sidebar, I never listened to the one, so I have no idea what they talked about.

You're not far off. DTS is a big one. We get the general involvement now. There's something we like to call the G1 report card. I'll make a note yeah make a note yeah do you report G1 no idea what's in it

big fan very well very well all right well great brief from the one yeah a lot a lot of good stuff a lot of good stuff

let's take it over to the deuce let's talk some intel Oh, that's you, Trey Oh, Daggum, I hate this That's why I love it so much Sir, yeah, as far as the S2 has to go The I'm still working on the laminator

We had an old laminator Okay It was broken He made that trash, sir threw it away, it's gone now Went on the new laminar Went on the new laminar Went on the new laminar

anticipating that will be future trash but at the moment, so we're not to receive it. Outside of that, sir, I'll be in my vault for the rest of the day if you need me. That's all I am, sir. Real quick, is the vault door fixed? Or are we still shutting that with an ammo can on the outside?

Yes, sir. Yeah, the ammo can. So it's fixed via the ammo can. Okay. Fixed via the ammo can. Yeah, that's good. That's good to go. Okay. All right, back to you three. Okay, awesome. Thank you.

Great questions, sir, really making us think and reorient our Oudaloup to restart that cycle of operations. Love a good cycle of operations. Speaking of operations, okay, hey, I understand we've got the trash stand down coming up next week. Okay, right? We're going to be having a trash call every morning at 0500 to 0606. And then after that, we'll do the trash reconciliation brief. Sir, real quick. Chaplain here, are we required, we being the Navy personnel that fall under H&S,

are we required to be at the trash call? We do generate trash during communion, Lord's Supper, for you Protestant types, but we dispose of the trash right away. I don't really see why myself, the chief, the medical officer, and my Navy Corman need, I don't mean to speak out of line. I know I'm in the chaplain operations of God and such, but I just mean I don't think that we need to be at the trash call. I think we should pray for trash as the call happens in our rooms,

but I'd prefer if my Navy brethren, it's go, Navy beat Army Week. anyway, sir, we can, should we take it offline? We'll take that one offline. But I just remember, this is a blue-green team. Okay, this is a blue-green team. We're all a department of the Navy brethren, right? Blue-green team, one team, one fight, U-rah.

Amen. So we'll get off-line with chap. So we'll discuss further. Amen, sir. I'll still take it offline with you, though. Okay, yes, amen, amen. Okay, well, hey, we've opened up the new Teams folder, right? You'll see there's a new trash stand-down teams folder.

We've got all of our poems. We've got our fishbone in there. We've got our Skittles tracker. We've got our, you can find your T&Rs in there. Your trash T&R is the latest and greatest version. Just published. Trash and Rubbish. It's my favorite manual.

The Trash and Rubbish Manual. Everyone should read it. Trash and rubbish. We live by. it, put it in McTims. MCDP, it's, it's good to go. It's good to go. If you haven't read it, if you haven't read it in a while, I suggest you refresh yourself on it.

MCDP, it's a good buck too. MCDP disposal process. And then also, you may have seen some article floating around about Marine Corps celebrating 250 years and now it's them wanting to get rid of us. So they're trying to turn the Marine Corps into trash. I don't know how I feel about that. You know, one, it's great that, you know, we need to get rid of trash, but also don't want to get rid of ourselves at the same time.

So I see this is like a very split, split mind, split brain. Excuse me, sir, is that a real article? Yeah, it's a real article about getting rid of the record. Hey, real quick, trash six here. Just came out recently. I want every officer in this battalion to write a white paper on why we should exist. All right. Now, don't ask me what a white paper is.

and I don't need some dumbass lieutenant comment about paper is white. Okay, I just, you write a white paper. It's a paper written. There's no format. And it gets right to the sausage and the meat and the potatoes of the issue. And I want every officer to write a white paper by Friday, 06, 05, before the trash call on my desk on why the Marine Corps should exist,

250 years kicking ass Ura trash sticks out Ura Excuse me sir Do you want that in a particular font I want it in white paper format Oh Roger that's your wing beans

Okay God And then it should it be all Should it be all caps Like Amar admin Should it be all caps This is not a sit rep Or Amar admin

It's a white paper All right It's different It's different Okay it's much different if you send me per stats and what you've been doing for the day

all caps so I can't see it and read it or know what's going on but a white paper needs to be legible on white paper I'm taking some initiative on this and we're going to take paper out of the trash to recycle a good initiative

bad judgment I need this on pristine paper okay oh right that's feature trash okay Pristine paper. The finest paper. All right.

Okay. And then just a reminder, immediately following the staff brief, we've got the trash working group. Just don't forget that. I feel like we've had low participation in the last couple ones, but trash working group is our main effort right now. Okay, kicking it over to our logistics.

Hey, trash sticks here. Until I get these white papers, this meeting. Oh, you don't know. for those that don't like hearing from the six you're welcome you're welcome and for those of you that like the podcast which there are a lot of you there's more people than my mother um and if you don't like this portion it's basically like you support the troops because no one that sits in those meetings likes them but remember the process is part of the whole thing and you got to do it

And we don't even like doing it sometimes, but we do it because we support the troops. All right. That's right. Yeah, Jeff, nice helmet you got back there. Yeah, I got a couple helmets over here. I don't know if you see my helmets. Oh. Got a cock helmet.

No, it's back there. Trey, you got any helmets? Yeah. I do got a helmet. Yeah, Mr. Helmet. It's over there. That's a reminder that this podcast bought to you by green, gridiron, gridiron, green. Mr. Helmut, Mr. Helmut, Mr. Helmut.

We got to talk Navy Football Helmets, but we ain't talking yet. I'll let Jeff still show, but I got to start. We got to talk about the turkey pole first. I think that's an important one. I'm wearing the Semperify America's Fun Hat right now. If you're not watching on YouTube, go to YouTube, type in the OK podcast, like and subscribe to the channel, go in there and comment. You got something funny that usually just text me on the side or send me an Instagram DM.

Don't do that. Feed the algorithm. the algorithm is hungry it wants to eat it's from milburn texas and it wants to know that you care and that you watch go feed the algorithm on youtube uh make a comment on spotify if you're into that sort of thing so we can make your spotify wrapped we've enjoyed seeing some spotify wraps for the okay podcast as we come to the years in but the turkey poll annual deadlift competition uh do it online we do it in person will announce the winners the day that this podcast comes out this friday so if you're listening this today the strength co will

announced the winners from the online portion of the turkey pool that will get some place. So that's exciting. But yeah, we had the event. It was fun. We got to talk Marine Corps ball. We got a lot of things. But I'll just like do a little synopsis of the turkey pole. And you guys can ask questions we can talk about it.

Got back from Vegas from the ball Thursday night, $200. Turkey pole starts Friday. No, excuse me. I got back Friday night, $2,200. Turkey pole starts Saturday morning, 1,100. Go to bed, wake up, grab the little 95. five Chevy, go to the gym, grab all the cast iron plates. We hold the turkey pole the last one, two, three years at the Newport Aquatic Center, which is great because the strength

code just redid their gym recently. So they got our barbells there and they got our bumper plates there. So that made the lifting, literally, a little bit easier in terms of that stuff just needed to be moved from their gym to the warm up area. So I had to get all the cast iron plates, had a handy-dandy nifty spreadsheet, loaded them up in the back of the Chevy, got the deadlift platform, loaded that thing up, deadlift jack, collars, chalk, belts, you name it. Drive down over there, get there, put the big flag up, or the flag was up, the staff had put the flag up, set up the deadlift platform, and I don't know, within like 90 minutes, like I felt like I was at the Arnold, had the big Stranko banner up, there's American flags

everywhere, had the warm-up room ready, pulled everything out. out, pop-up tents were up, Semperfying America's Fund showed up. She set up her booth. Vanessa is a SoCal regional director. She's come the last three years. Nice. And yeah, I think I got to the gym

to start set up at 8.30. By 10 o'clock, we were ready to rock. And, yeah, that's why they call it the turkey pole. Hey. Hmm. That's why we love it. What was the best moment of the turkey pole? Any inspiring lifts or?

Yeah, there's a lot. Yeah, no, it's funny. So we ended up with like just over, I think we had 39 registered. Then we had people that didn't show up, different stuff. And then we ended up with three flights of 10. And then some like people jumped in. I don't know. Maybe it was like 12, 13 and 12, something like that.

The first flight at our event is always the most fun because it's less weight. but it's more impressive people and what I mean by that is like it's a lot of our gym members it's ladies in their 60s and 70s it's the second flight was good too um now they were all great but it's kind of it's just kind of amazing and it's mind-blowing so we had a lot of spectators this year I see a lot you know there's probably a hundred people there total but people that don't lift that just come out like watch someone they're like blown away by a 65-year-old lady deadlifting 200 and like to me I'm like well just another day at the office and like when they see like the struggle and the knee shake and like the not quitting like really gets in

people's brains because they're just I don't know that I don't know what they expect but they don't expect that so we had some some good pulls there we had an 82 year old lady we had a little moment of scare if you were watching live on Instagram might have seen it um you had an 82 year old lady her coach was there everyone's a waiver don't worry and she's fine don't worry but she goes to pull I believe it was her second attempt I think she opened with 85 pounds I may get the numbers wrong sorry she goes to pull 100 she's 82 years old and she's got like maybe a little bit of neuropathy like a little bit of balanced up for coach is like on a knee on the side of her kind of deal you know like showing helping her get her hands in the bar and she's like with it right it's not

like she's like 82 no idea what's going on but she goes to pull her second pull gets it about mid thigh and falls backwards uh so she falls backwards and like everyone just like kind of goes quiet and like within seconds like we're on her grab her pick her up she's like i'm fine i'm fine everything's good and shout out to big connor who's like in the turkey suit got his hat on yelling in the mic and he just i just kind of look at him like hey man and he knows like grant's going to make sure she's fine like do all the stuff like i got to like get this thing going he just kept the energy going and uh and we kept deadlifting so that was a little scare as an owner you're like oh man uh she was fine she wouldn't get checked out later just to be safe that's what

you do um when you're 82 and uh no issues there but it was a little like moment of 10 stuff and then we made sure the deadlift spotter was back there you know uh you get some cats back there yeah we needed zoe uh on deadlift platform that is zoey right that is zoey yeah 50 50 chance was an 82 pound cat uh and anyway yeah i don't know that's pretty impressive so but overall yeah after that everyone did fine uh we had A guy pulled successfully, I think, 635. Another guy missed maybe 645, a couple marine vets showed up that I'd never met. They just like, hey, saw you on Instagram, came out to pull.

Yeah, it was great. It was great. It was a good. It was a lot of donations. We don't see them. We, like, have the Semper-Five people there, so you just give them directly to them. They'll buy some of the total in a week or two. Then we donated the proceeds from the Semper-5 bars sales.

so we presented them a check and yeah it was it was great time it was 72 degrees California sunny day oh come oh yeah it was it was great you guys would love it you guys would love it dang dang dang good stuff I love the turkey that sounds a pretty good time so like overall comparable to previous years about on part yeah I think so maybe a little less in attendance um in terms of competitors I think the high we've had is we were way up on online this year so it was a little bit less but yeah like it was it was great it was like a great community event a lot of kids there running around the tamales were late

because we ordered them from an authentic place and that's what authentic tamales do they come late um yeah it was uh yeah it was it was good time it was good time had some marine buddies show up i think it's really cool to see i think it's really cool to see the online stuff picking up you know that just yeah like it's just Yeah, me too. Like words getting out there. I think that's pretty cool. The strength of the reach is getting further and wider.

Love it. Thanks to the OK podcast. Oh, obvious. Oh, my gosh. It's one thing we'd attribute it to you. No, no. Okay. Okay.

Okay. Oh, my goodness. Yeah. All right, Jeff. I want to hear about Marine Corps birthday ball from Grant. Oh, yeah. Burr and Vegas was it? Uh, take it back over.

Is there like multiple? locations in Vegas? Well, there's like a couple hotels there, I think. Oh, it was at the Paris. Yeah, I just assumed like Vegas, like you're either like in Vegas or in Nevada, right? Las Vegas. Yeah, Vegas, Texas.

Yeah. Yeah, Vegas. I might guess that one next week. It could be a real place. Oh, good one. Yeah. It was at the Paris. Let's see. Drove there, never driven there. Always flown there.

Okay. Um, drove in, got to the Paris, had the baby in tow, had the wife, had the sister-in-law and her fiance, um, for some babysitting action. It's different with a baby. Uh, you know, the timelines are different. Everything's different. Uh, but rolled in. That was all good. I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll skip to the highlights so you can ask questions. Day of the ball. Wives getting ready. I got the baby, uh, you know, in the stroller. holding her. We're cruising around. They're doing ball practice. Go back up to the room. Sister-in-laws got the baby.

Walk out into the hallway and like the house cleaners or the, you know, the, what do you call him? the hotel mates yeah hotel mates yeah staff whatever they're in the hall and they're they're of latin descent um i'm gonna guess like nicaraguan types and i walk out first in my mess dress

and diana comes out next to me and she's got like a beautiful sparkling dress on and she goes ooh meriachi's and i was like oh i was like oh i always make that joke and now someone made it for me it landed uh so we go down and you know it's like we got to do this photo beforehand which is super stressful because like you got to be in the boss's room at this time before you're going to be over here so we go down we're like in the lobby and someone comes up she's like hey what's y'all here for and she's got a big hat on we'll just call out a hat everyone knows she's wearing boots we'll just call them boots she's got those um you know those sleeves that you know got the tassels tall grass yeah tassels she got tassels flowing tall grass sleeves yeah yeah tall grass sleeves

and I'm like oh we're here for the ball and she's like oh are you a marine I'm like yep now I'm a marine you're in your uniform at this time right yeah yeah I mean she's fantastic yeah yeah so so I say so to like put our IQs in the same level I go where are you from and she goes and I'm And I go, if you're not watching YouTube, YouTube, took both their hands, like displayed her outfit and was like, and I go, Texas, she is, we're from Texas. I'm a Red Raider. He went to TCU. And then the guy's there, he's got his Western Garbine. He's got a vest, another big bucket hat.

He goes, hey, brother, you care if I take a photo with you real quick. All soon as my brother, his cousin was a Marine. I was like, yeah, man. So he's like, arm out, take a selfie. He's like, hey, man, we appreciate what you do. Can you tell us where you've been? Can, can, like, we love this country. Can you, can you tell us where you been?

I was like, yeah, we actually just got back from deployment. Everyone you saw here just got back from the woman. He goes, oh, y'all, y'all went in the shit. I was like, yeah, actually, it's called Okinawa. Kind of. And then he laughs. I'm like, yeah, I've been on a warship, you know, the USS San Diego. And he's like, oh, man, you care if I take another photo.

I'm like, yeah, go ahead, man. Some guys got like four selfies with me. And then she just went into a rant about the Red Raiders. And finally, the husband's like, I think they want to leave, babe. And Diane and I did want to leave. And we left. So that was that. Then the ball went great.

The ball went great. There was a moment at the ball sitting at the table. I watched the video. I hadn't seen the video. You're right, Jeff. Not enough triple seven action. Watching it. I got my godfather Marines there from New Jersey.

And we get, we're in the cake cutting part. And Diana, like, grabs my hand when they're like, as is tradition, the oldest Marine. And she like squeezes me, no, I'm like, oh, like, the joke's coming. And I start, like, looking around. And everyone's, like, looking at each other, like, well, we can't wait to see how young, the youngest Marine is or are. And it's like, you can, like, see it. It happened, like, the youngest Marine was born on October 1st, 2006.

And I was like, just like, it's me slapping, belly laughing. Oh, man. Shocking, the youngest Marines 18. Crazy how that works. It's hilarious. So funny. Happens every year. Yes, that was the ball.

Troy Campbell, Sr., friend of the podcast was there with his son. saw him he gave us some gifts they're in route to you we'll open them up maybe probably next week on the show i imagine they'll arrive he was a i might mess this up i think he was two two two or one two i think he was two what's two two calls sign jeff two two two two two two that i don't know is they're a horse so i don't bear horse two one is like the professionals i think uh he might have been two one that might be it was the east coast or west coast asking the wrong guy uh 2 1 is yeah first marines east coast out of camp porno and then 2 2 is he's from ohio if that helps uh doesn't turns out the marine court doesn't really care about your preferences particularly if you're like a pfc

in the 80s uh you know really care i want to say it was 2 1 i feel bad i can remember but uh he was there was good supposed to meet for coffee the morning after went down didn't have his number couldn't get a hold of people to get his number missed him but i checked in i'm like he's still at front of the podcast even though i missed the t-o-t like oh yeah he's still in front of the podcast so uh yeah it was great to meet him i had some stickers and stuff i'll mail him to him instead but uh but yeah marine corps ball 250 years every time someone would see me though about i think for your service i would just say 250 years of kicking ass who right and like Vegas people are just like yeah all right they're like yard

what was it like three foot long beer cup they're like yeah brother yeah that's right oh yeah brother mariachies I'm in I'm in the room and then we're in core

mariachi band yeah because it looks so much it does look so much like a mariachi band it does you know people say like Butler or whatever

but it is 100% a Mary like if if the three of us put it on and grab like a cello a violin and a little Mexican guitar. We could make a lot of money. We could pay off our

if you can you technically is it out of regs? Like if you just wore your typical blues, can you still do that? Yeah, we can still do that. Or is it like to the ball. Yeah, you can still wear him. Yeah. Yeah. It's kind of either

either one. Like that's some, to me that's the best looking uniform. Hands down. Like I don't under. I think the blues with the Sam Brown is the best looking. Yeah. I'm speaking like a field grade now.

I do think like when I see a field grade officer and he's at the ball and he's still serving. I don't care. Active Reserve, whatever. It's like, hey, man, you're a major now and you're still serving, which means you're in for the long haul. And like, if you didn't buy the new uniform, it just like, I think it's a bad look. like I think it's like a really like I actually prefer the way the blues look I prefer the comfort of the mess dress but I'm like if you're a major you've been promoted two months like whatever but like if I I have like gone to balls and seen like guys that are 05 selects and like they're in their blues and they're not in their blues because like the battalion commander sometimes I've done this uh 511 battalion commander did it when I was lieutenant he was like I don't care who you are everyone's wearing blues to the ball no mess dress uh which is cool uh but unless like that scenario's going on if i see you and you're not a mess dress i'm like are you really bought in because i feel like uh you should look like a mariachi band member

right now well wear the blues and then just like carry it on a hanger the mess dress like next i do have that's like i do have i do have to try you know i'll just tell you this if you'd if you'd stay in to field green and if you ever put on the mesh dress your train of thought would change. You'd be like, yeah, blues look way cooler. I'm wearing my best dress. This is the best. Well, technically, my favorite,

my favorite uniform is the blues, but like two hours into the Marine Corps ball when the top button is unhooked. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. So we call the two hours. That's technically my favorite uniform, but yeah. Love it.

All right. That's the ball. Push. that is the ball let's see we'll briefly stick on there's like one more topic that's not sports well I guess there's a couple

non-sports related topics but I'll stay with Marine Corps stuff real quick so we can wrap that up but we went to the field this weekend for our drill when we participated in steel night I don't know if you remember that

but it's a little different now like part of it goes on Camp Pendleton part of it goes in 29 Palms but still, yeah, still is much of a, let's say, a mess or like, when you, like, you know, when you get into like regimental phase, division phase, like it just slow. It's probably still going, isn't it? It is still going. We were just out there for like two days of it.

So we got in, got out, you know, because we participated in steel night, 24-hour ops, which is a favorite kind of ops. when you're just like sitting in the FDC at night because it's the only place with like light and you can just see everybody's like brains like slow down because they've been up for like. So you guys did like legitimate 24 hour abs. Not like 25% like it was like everyone was up.

Oh yeah. Like everybody. You have to say you rotate through security stuff. But yeah. Yeah. Like because they got the they got the waiver on Camp Pendleton to shoot literally all night. So we could, yeah, we got. We were shooting rounds at like 3.30 in the morning.

Hell yeah, brother. We just got to shoot. Yeah, it was cool. It was cool. And then we retired. My first sergeant retired. So we got to send him out the door. That was my first time being a retiring officer.

Oh, nice. So, yeah, it was a good time. It was a good time. We sent him off well. You know, he could have got out of the field and just been like, I'm checking out, sir. Turned in all my SIF gear. But now he was like, oh, I'm absolutely going to the field.

Let's do this. So, it was a good time. Good time. Congrats first sergeant. Yeah, first sergeant. Congratulations. Preston. What was his MOS before?

Preslin? Preslin. Send me his address. We'll send him a, we'll send him a t-shirt and some stickers. Thank you for a service because we support the troops. Hell yeah. Support the troops. Yeah.

That was it cold? Yes. I think one of the coldest nights I've had in the field was that first night. night, Thursday night. Thursday night? Yeah, yeah. I saw you. So cool.

When did we record Tuesday? Yeah, most than Tuesday night. We record Tuesday, Wednesday. Wednesday, you're doing safety. Yep. Thursday. We showed up early, went down to, like, packed up everything, drove down to camp panel in that afternoon, got set up.

And then, you know, got a couple hours of sleep that night. and it was just for reason it was like 30 it was like 32 degrees or 34 degrees but it just felt so much colder but yeah yeah you're also like you never in camp pendleton you never pack like you would if you were in like korea you know you're just like oh yeah it might be cold but it won't be that cold and then you're like i did not bring near enough nope yeah well great time Steel night. What I don't know about Steel night. Oh, go ahead.

Ooh, chow. Oh, yeah, yeah, I could go back to, I definitely, like, crushed two armories, like, back to back at one point, like, very easily. And I thought. Easy, right? I got, he's like, okay, I could do a third, but there's no wet, 12? 12. I don't know, dude.

I said, no. Let's remember. I said six for sure. But I think I could do 12. So six is a lot. I'm going to do it. I'm going to do it. I have to do it.

I owe it to the people. We need to, like, in the course of, like, filming an episode. Just do it. That'd be great. Just we could just, we could just do. Maybe we do 12 collectively in an hour. Four pieces. That's, I feel like, yeah, I feel like we could all do four.

You got MREs of your house? Jeff? I got a couple of boxes of cold weather MREs. I don't know if those. You always hit. Oh, and that the heavy duty one? They had the white package. They gave us to it. They gave to us during COVID because they were like,

we might not be able, you might not be able to eat. So here's MREs. That was my favorite thing. We were selling rental gym packages. People would call and be like, hey, do you have any rentals left? Like, yeah, like, how much is it? They got, you know, $300. a month, whatever. It was like a wooden bench Home Depot buckets, a bar and like 185 pounds

of weights or something. And they, okay, I'll call you next week. And I would just go, I don't know if they're going to let us drive next week. Like, the way things are going, it's getting weird. If you want to get this rental and make sure, like, I'm in the military. I don't think we're going to be allowed to use to roads. Bring it to my house right now. Bring to my house. Oh, delivery. It's next 200 bucks. I'm on my way. a great salesman that sense of urgency I love that I mean that's what I call a business

hey I'll leave still night and then get into what Trey's chopping for for college football I just remember still my I think of them when I was in active duty so it generally starts the first week of December somewhere around like the second

or third which means like the 30th and the first you're like packing out it's like all steel night prep going into it and then it ends like in vicinity of like 1920 and so how i remember steel night is like single want to go see my parents for thanksgiving south carolina i fly from california to south carolina i like visit grandma i go home eat thanksgiving meal sunday i'm like driving to charleston charlotte wherever i'm flying out of i get in a flight back and then it's like i mean it may be three or four days but it's a very short amount of time and whatever amount of time it is, I'm like packing for the field and

prepping for this like two plus week exercise. And then it's like, hey, I'm a Pendleton unit. There's like a whole day of transit up. There's a day of like RSO and I at 29 palms or whatever it is. Then you go into the exercise. And then on the back end, it's like, hey, I got to get back. I got to get the gear done. So it's like one day, it's like you're at home eating Thanksgiving. And the next day, it's like Christmas is in four days. Like that's what it feels like. And like you just lost all the entire Christmas season, like every musical, every Christmas tree lighting. Like you just saw, it was like, I was home for Thanksgiving. And now I got to like rush my butt to the airport to be home for Christmas.

And that's what they call it Steal Night. I said that so many times during the film. Yeah. Turn to it. I was just like turned to a random Lance Corporate, like, hey, that's why they call it Steel Night. Some of those things stick. Yeah, you know, six, seven. It's how it goes.

I had some Marines catch you on there. They're like, oh, that's good. Yeah, it's funny. They go on Steel night, sir. Yeah, it's funny. About halfway through the deployment now that I can say that I am my buddy. But after the deployment, Marines were like, oh, sir, put on in the old vice. And I'm like, yeah, it's like, doesn't need to be so serious.

They got it eventually. you know, I get to do it ever so often. And now, you know, we can't do it. Here we are. That's true. So true. You know, with everything going on. Yeah.

COVID. Oh, man. Go Navy beat Army. Go Navy beat Army. Do we get into college football? Yeah, I got to. First of all, that's not when I'm chomping at the day to talk about. But what are you chopping at?

That's hot. Tell me more, Trey. Did we win pickums? Do I need to do the tray? Oh, no. No pickums. Okay. No.

Did we win? There was a, no, we got second. Yeah, it is over. But it was, it's not even football related that. I mean, we'll get to it. Okay. What is it? No, what is it?

No, let's get to it now and say, let's be chomped. So, dumb, dumb fight, mean kitchen six. Okay. Loading the dishwasher. This should be a quick, it should be a quick, this guy loading the dishwasher and I

part it's partially loaded already I'm cleaning bottles cleaning dishes doing all the stuff loading the dishwasher for the rest of it and I open it up

and I'm like who put this stuff in like is it Ray Charles like who put the no organization just like thrown in there first of all

what is the orientation that you put your silverware and your flatware whenever it goes in the basket do you do down or down down right um hang on like so I have a newer dishwasher

about two years old and the basket has like little holes it's not that it's like a Samsung so you can only put stem down because it's like it has like holes for stems it's actually annoying because if

Do you have like some nice silverware? I don't mean nice like money, but like, you know, where it's like has a big stem or it raises, you can't stick it all the way down. It won't go in. But it's designed. Yeah. So like the.

The prongs. The feteer. Yeah. The prongs. Gotcha. The spoon. The blade. It's designed for it to go up.

The business. The business. The business. But I would think prior to that dishwasher, I would go, business end down. Yeah, I feel like that's a design flaw by whatever

brand you bought. I mean, this is what happens. I feel like it's overseas. I haven't gotten into cast iron dishwashers. I'm thinking about it, but I mean, I think it'd be great. Can you imagine opening up

like 300 pounds on the door? You can't use soap because it's cast iron. So you just use, It just has hot water jets flying everywhere. It'd be amazing. Hot water and canola oil spraying everything in there. Because it has to season yourself after dishwasher.

It doesn't rust. You put a jet boil in size. You could double use it as an oven. What don't we do? Yeah. No, that was a hot topic tonight. I just needed to get some. No, we've had some.

I have my home. We've left. it. It's been left unfinished. I mean, to get some other people, I mean, get some more opinions, outside sources, and I was going to go back and finish the discussion. So Kitchen Six wants them up.

She says it doesn't matter. It's an arbitrary up or down. And I go, that's not true. Like, they go, man. I think technically she's right. In terms of them being, clean.

All right, make a note. Grant says, it doesn't matter. I just think for the process of unloading the dishwasher, it's easier to just have the handle so you can just grab it and... Thank you.

Exactly. Okay. Efficient. I think it's funny that it is... I don't know how much I want to rock. I think it's funny than as men, you guys unload the dishwasher personally. I unload the dishwash.

That's why you got Kitchen Six. Hey. I ain't touching that one. No, I'm going to say Abby's right. As a guy that's been away from his home for nine months and his wife's done everything. My wife's right. Anything my wife

says, she's right. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Your team, whatever. Whatever D says, I'm all for it. We should turn the windows upside down in the house. Yes. Yeah. You should share the guard. Get right on it. I'll be outside. Yep. Get right on it.

All right. Now we want to go over the picks that we have last week. Yeah. Let's do a rundown. I just need that like, I know you want to go by like the offensive lineman's height and wait i just like were we six and four were we seven and three let me see so there was one two three four five six i'm gonna know i think danes right so eight championships that's true we got that yeah we both picked welcome i i got so we also picked

we also picked alabama yeah i'm sorry about that one well and so we missed on alabama and we missed on you and LV. So we ended up still second place, two games back. You know, made the podium, though. It's a good effort. It's good effort. Great effort. It's a man's game.

So until next year, that was the last attempt. So until we get going next year. And that brings us to a close of train. next of the week. I never went back and checked. Did Jordy put reverb on that? I'm sure. Totally.

Yeah, he definitely did. Yeah. Always does. Yeah. He always does what I say to do. Yeah. He's great. You got a great producer.

Yeah. That's what you call him PJ. Producer, Jordan. We know, we need to do this. Let's, I'll set this up next year for the, Slack channel. By the way, Slack channel, use code okay. Yeah, link below.

Do it. Yeah. Okay. Okay. Let's get sports talk. But yeah, I see, let's get into it. Let's do it. Well, what did you think about that Indiana game?

Honestly, surprised. So, like, it was a really good game. I was not surprised. I was surprised. Because, like, Indiana hadn't played anybody all year. Have you Googled him? This. Yeah.

That was my fault. I guess I didn't Google him. But they look good, man. Yeah. Yeah. Solid team. They're just both bad. I don't know.

Yeah, it's all going to shake out pretty soon here. It's all going to shake out. We'll find out, man. So I was surprised. I thought Ohio State was going to win. I was at a Christmas, tree lighting with the wife and daughter

post turkey poll while that game went on watched the preponderance of it on my phone when I see a watch I mean followed and then I did watch Georgia Alabama caught I think the second half of that I thought Alabama

I don't know maybe I was tired but there was like a moment there they threw that touchdown strike and that quarterback just started like running wild throwing balls and I for a second there I thought Alabama was going to have a shot and then

dogs beat them. I watched all of the second half and intently Duke in Virginia because the household had gone to bed at that part point. That was great. I love that like they just Duke just like ruined it for the ACC. They have no team

in. I love it. I love it. Did we pick Duke? Didn't we pick Duke? We picked Duke, yeah. Yeah, big upset right there. Steve Spurrier. It's, I was watching it. I'm like, we picked Duke.

And I'm like, man, I feel like, I really wish Virginia would win this game. Yeah. Because if Virginia would have won, I think, because that's who A&M would have played in the first round. Oh, right, right, right, right. So should we go through the first round or we've not? We got weeks for that. We've got to leave that. We've got to wait on that.

yeah I guess we can talk about the selection yeah we just talk about like who made it who we who we think should be in there maybe should be out of there talking about because I think on their bowl game did they are they doing a book or they say no Auburn did they did not get invited oh that's right my bet no there's three wins oh that's weird I don't know what I made it I mean, in this day and age, in this day and age, they might have got an invite.

Who knows? Here's the mind. They're like, well, everyone else turned us down. Auburn, do you want to go to the Pop-Tart Bowl? You know what?

Like, mean, great, and ask that sincerely. No, I didn't. No, I did.

I did. I did. I did. I did. I thought Catholics didn't pull out. I think you have to talk about Notre Dame but there's a bunch of entitled jerks Yeah, I don't

It's not a good look No, it's not like Are they a better team than JMU and Tulane Like I think a thousand percent I had time to tell But But join dang conference

All right, stop like stop playing this game. The two legit teams that you had on your schedule, you lost both those games. Like Pittsburgh kind of snuck in there as like a good looking win as like a ranked team, but it's like no one's really impressed by that Pittsburgh win. It's like you didn't do anything to really prove yourself.

So I'm not surprised that they're out. Or don't join a conference and just win your games. That also takes care of a lot of things, you know. as it turns out you know what i was thinking about whenever they didn't get invited to the playoff is grand remember we were watching the game i could i forget last year yep in that hotel in that high regency guy in his girlfriend yep well that's that guy was living rim free weighed about 120 pounds oh yeah beating tech saying it living rip free in my man where when'd you go there and he goes, I didn't go there, go Irish.

And his girlfriend just mean mugging us the whole time? Yep. Yeah, how could I forget? That's what I was thinking about. That's right. That was a good time. But I say, if you look at the bracket, though, definitely one side is very,

uh, one side is a, I would say you could classify as a cakewalk and the other one is a little bit more difficult. I would say. Who's on the committee? I know like years ago it was like Condoleezza Rice and, you know, important people.

Do you see the initial one? Yeah, that's right. I know. I remember like guys like, like, ah, we need somebody to decide college football. Let's get Condi. Condi will get in there.

She'll figure out college football and fix it for us. It's so random. Like, who are these people? Are they like? Right? So the guy who talks a lot is Hunter Eurocheck. He's on the, he's like the spokesman. He's the Arkansas athletic director.

I don't understand how he can be associated with us school and be on this committee. Like that's so weird conflicts. I mean, most of our ADs, right? But like that doesn't make sense to me. Like who should be on there? not people Conno Lisa Rice Connolly's a Rice

let's get John in there John Gruden Let's get some just YouTubers Yeah let's get Just everybody We got to see

The first high rack war Mr. B's Yeah We get Colum Powell I think are RIP Yeah

General Schwarzoff Saddam Hussein Saddam Hussein Uh Probably the guy from Black Hawk down Yeah

All those guys his playing cards. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Santa Claus. Yeah, I don't know who should be on the committee, but it just feels like if there's people that are associated with like a school and therefore associated with a conference, like there's just like that has, how is that not a conflict of interest?

Oh, dude. I feel like the whole thing is rigged to begin with. Like when the S, like Alabama getting in it is to me, I still think they should, I would have picked Notre Dame over Alabama. Oh, come on. And then when you have like a, and then when you have like a, oh, that's a, well, then that's an instance I think of like, okay, so what if Alabama had only ended up with two losses on the season?

Say, like, hadn't made the conference championship, only two losses sitting at the end of the season. They'd be out. And Notre Dame's in? Yeah, look at their losses. Who did Alabama lose to? For a state. Yeah.

Ooh, bad team. In Georgia. Good team. But I just think it's funny. They're like, oh, they made the right decision leaving in Alabama. And the guy telling me that is Reese Davis, Alabama grad, who kicks it over to Greg McElroy, Alabama quarterback, who tells me the same thing. Who takes it over to the Alabama head coach for the longest time, Nick Xavier. Oh, they made the right to say.

I'm like, okay. Yeah. Fucking clown show, man. I think Alabama was still riding that next. safe and error for like, oh, they could go on a run, but I don't, I don't think they got it in them. No, dude, I think they're going to get dog walked like they did in the finals, championship. I think they beat Oklahoma.

We'll talk about that later, but, uh, okay, what else we got, hell else we got? Okay, Indiana number one, Ohio State number two, Georgia number three, Texas Tech number four. I feel like those are all pretty straightforward. Yeah, makes sense. All right. Number five, Oregon. How do you feel about that one? I think five, six, and seven. Like, you can make a case for just about all of them to be where they're at.

Okay, okay. Okay, where are we at? I thought they would have penalized Ole Miss for losing Lane Kiffin. I'm surprised he didn't. Yeah. Because last year they penalized Florida State. for losing their quarterback. Yeah.

They kicked them out of the playoffs. So I feel like... Yeah, an undefeated team, right? Yeah, I think so. Was that last year, a year before? I can't remember. Yeah. I think it was when there was four teams still.

Yeah. Yeah. But like... So I thought they would have moved Ole Miss down, but I guess whatever. Just not. It's just you got to get rid of the JMU and... Now, how are you?

did J.M.U. I don't understand how they got in there. Conference champion, right? But like... Yeah. But it's like the highest... The rule is the highest rated conference champion. That's how Tulane also, right? Yeah.

So they're like, I thought the group of five only got like one. So since they... So, no, because it's the, what, one, two, five. Five highest rated conference champions. Okay. So usually that's the Big Ten, ACC, Big 12, SEC, and then group of five. And since Ohio State lost, they didn't, but they're not going to move them out. Yeah.

So then that's why you have two group of five. Jam U's record is hilarious. Let me just read these teams. What is it? Oh, like who they beat? Yeah. Weber State. Oh.

Lost a little. The old webs. Beat Liberty, beat Georgia Southern, who plays the Citadel, beat Georgia State, beat Louisiana, the raging Cajuns, beat Old Dominion, who almost beat South Carolina, I guess, beat Texas State, beat Marshall, great trucking company, beat App State. They did beat Epstay good, and I'll have some love for Upstate, beat Washington State, beat Coastal Carolina, beat Troy, play Oregon. So they played. they played zero ranked teams zero it is insane that they make it so if they who's gonna watch that

I hope they beat Oregon oh I'm gonna watch that game oh I would love it if they beat Oregon but like it's like no 21 point dogs that should be Notre Dame Oregon like think how good that game would be or so many Catholics

and I am a consummate like Notre Dame hater like I don't I don't think they're ever actually good but like they're definitely better than GMU and Tulane the Dukes

Sunbell is what it is but yeah no I'm still excited about it don't give me wrong I'm gonna watch every game don't yeah I'll probably 100% but oh my goodness

kind of silly so it's sports fun yeah and then I guess I saw that someone was talking about how, like, okay, Notre Dame's been ranked ahead of Miami in the college football playoff rankings until this week when neither of them played. It was like, huh? Yeah.

How is their movement there? Yeah. I like Miami over Notre Dame, though. I do, I do too. I mean, well, you have the head to head. Yeah. So Miami's better team. Yeah.

I don't know. I think Carson Beck's going to crumble. We shall see. I think he is, too. We'll see. Coming to Kyle Field. Now, the real game. Hey, Trey, have you got any Venmo deposits?

Anyone? Anyone hit you with your Venmo? No. All right. Here we go. That's this weekend, right? This weekend. Saturday, 12 o'clock for your Pacific Standard Timers.

If you're not watching on YouTube, I'm showing you the mini speed classic riddle helmet. This is the 2021 Army Navy game Replica helmet. We need to talk about Army Navy's uniforms because they've been all over everyone's feed. But you can go get yourself a helmet from Mr. Helmet. You can have it in your office wherever you would go. But go Navy beat Army. First of all, let's talk to your uniforms. And then let's talk the game.

I haven't seen them. Oh, you haven't seen them. Ooh, it's pretty cool. Pull them up. They do like some Marine Corps. Like every now and then they do like a Marine Corps flavored one. And now they're at 250 years. So maybe football.

I like the Helmut X, Texas, Mr. Helmut today. And I'm like, how do I get the helmet? And he's like, dude, you and everyone else. We're trying to get the rights to it or whatever. Oh, nice. Yeah, I think the. I think the uni's, oh, I 100% want that helmet. I'll send one to my, yeah, I'll say it with my dad for sure.

Yeah, but it looks, yeah, it looks pretty sweet. It's like, do you got to pull up there, Trey? Yeah, what? Is it a ship? Yeah, it's a USS Constitution. Yeah, I got to find a better. Old iron sides. And then they're all going to wear number 25, right?

Yeah. I think they're all going to wear number 25 or, 250 is that right I think that's just like the sample or commemorative one I think they should all wear number 25 one team one fight ira yeah it's cool

to commemorate the legally like cool number 25 and you're like which one yeah then no one feels bad one team one yeah there you go we all held on that play

yeah army so I would say I'm curious Trey I like one i'm curious if you care about this game at all and two like i can remember being in my dad my grandfather's basement wilson massachusetts in high school i remember john mccain being at the game so it might have been like when mccain was going against bush so what was that like 2000 or oh four i don't remember but i just remember like bowl season's starting to happen you know, obviously it's

for college football playoffs, but it's like Army Navy game and like a bunch of people care about it and a bunch of people are there and everyone's like maybe I'm just like cadet, uh, bias being a Citadel guy, but like I just remember I'm thinking it looks so cool and then I think the longer I'm in service

like the more I've become a Navy fan and like I got like really pumped for this game now and it's probably I would say that's probably five years. It's probably five years when I follow Navy all year long. Don't watch the games because they're not often televised, but like I watched Citadel games. Like I find a way, right? But I follow them. I know their records. I know how they're

doing. And then like I watch the Army Navy game. And yeah, I think you're just in longer. You meet more people cross branches. You know more Navy cats. Whatever the thing is. But like, yeah, I am fired up. And particularly because like the Gamecocks don't have a bowl game. So like, What do I have last? I mean, Navy game. But yeah, I mean, Navy by 1,000. Man, I think there's a reason, like, this is, for a lot of college football fans, like this is, like, one, probably number one on the bucket list of, like, games to go to.

I want to go so bad. And, like, there's a reason, like, it's on its own weekend. Like, I think this game, like, it epitomizes, like, college football. Yeah. Like, you know, like, it's amateurs, true amateur football players, like, just like duke in and out. It's awesome, man. Like, I think that's, I don't know. It's what college football, I think, was before all a ton of money got into it.

Before Condoleezza Rice got there. Condoleza Rice got her hands on it. She ruined everything. Navy Shipman are a six and a half point favorite over under 30.5. We need some predictions, boys. is this what's your record are they 10 are they 10 wins

I think Navy's 9 let me pull up Navy 9 and 2 Army 6 and 5 Navy leads it's a good series too Navy leads by 8 games so it's 66 55 and 7 yeah it's pretty close

they're playing for a long time yeah highest paid member in the DOD I think I think. The under usually wins. Yeah, all right. So Navy six and a half point favorites, over under 38 and a half,

Trey final score. I, okay, I feel like Navy, this Navy quarterback like broke the record for passing yards this year, right? It's pretty good. He's pretty good. I feel like Navy's going to get into the,

I say high 20s. I'm going to go 28, 25, yeah, I'll go 28. 28 to 13. 28 13. Okay, all right, Jeff. I'm going to go 31 to 10. Ooh, I like it.

I like the way you're trying. Remember, good teams win, great teams cover. You're both saying Navy's a great team. i'm liking it uh jeff you kind of stole my thunder there oh i'm gonna go it's a navy army game which will be like something weird that happens i'm gonna go 28 to 11 navy yeah where they where they play in the so you go the over uh it's in baltimore okay 11 yeah there's gonna be like uh Like a safety or like Army goes for two on their first touchdown.

And there's always like some weird number. Okay. It's a little points. Yeah. I feel like there's like if you pull that out, that would be I'll buy you that Navy home. I mean, I'm two for two on towns in Texas,

tracking Chester and there you go, dude. Don't fade my guy. There's like a weather prediction. Cold. Yeah, she cold. It looks like it's just cold Nothing crazy And where they put is Baltimore?

Baltimore Yeah Tray Baltimore okay Do you get back in the gym I did I got lost and found I ended up in a gym

What happened Man I was in Tulsa I got some I'm like man I got some time to kill Tulsa time Tulsa time Yeah you get it And found a good gym, but it was right down the street.

So I'm like, I can't afford not to. Walked in, thought I was going to have to pay a day pass fee. And the kid goes, oh, manager's not here. Go and go. I was like, I love it with my employees to do that. Business owner's nightmare. It's the worst. So I'm not going to say what Jim was.

I want to protect my boy. It's like, it's like, oh, yeah. You know that nitro. coffee we have on tap that everyone likes. Yeah, you know the coffee, fun, little piggy bank you got out front that the owner can pull about $100 off a month and, you know, justify having cold brew coffee on tap. Yeah, broke. So I just put it in the cupboard around back.

And, yeah, no one's giving money for coffee in months. Ah, that's phenomenal. Fantastic. Well, I think it goes back to your theory of gyms don't like to make money. They don't. I think he's a gym owner. I don't want to make money. Yeah, I just want to survive.

It's all about survival. My employees did not do that. No, I see all you said, man, just kind of easing my way back into it. What did you do? I just did, did squats because I did on a, I guess, tighter timeline. I mean, obviously you squat, but what did you squat? Did you like do ascending sets of five? Did you do a warm up protocol?

Did you pick an arbitrary rate? I picked an arbitrary weight of, and I just did three, three sets of five, and then with a pretty decent warmup. And then, because I remember I took a, previously I had taken a break. I went way too heavy and I was just way too much. I'm like, I'm going to start off slow, three sets of five. I think I did two, seventy-five, three sets of five. And then, yeah. And then got another workout right before we hopped on here, man.

Oh, you're two for two this week. Two for two. Yeah. This one, though, I did a, I just got back into town. So then we had to film this. I just did a little hit program. Did something. So I wasn't under the barbell, but got the heart rate up a little bit.

So two for two, man. Two for two. It's all about building little wind streaks, little momentum. So then I think for at least starting off for a little bit, just do one, one a day. So I think tomorrow what I had planned was bench press or overhead press. And then was it Wednesday, Thursday, between those two, and then Friday hit a deadlift. Trey's back. Trey's back.

Guess who's slowing. Jeff. Back good game. Chady is back. Guess who's back. Guess who's back? Man, I hear some shoddy. I just want to go bowling.

Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-na-na-na-na-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da. Tell me you're 37. Queen of the monster. Nobody wants to say, I'm chopped liver. Shady songs are kind of like the Marine Corps of him. With the Army or the Navy. Guess who's back? Two trailer park roads run running outside.

Running outside. Running outside. I never listened to that growing up. Sorry, my gracious. I told you. Did ever tell you story when I first listened to him and him? No. No.

So I went specifically remember this I thought growing up No one said this to my family But I thought the only thing we were allowed to listen to Was country music Oh No it's a straight country music Because you're a bored country

Both Yeah exactly And so then that's what That's all we listen to Oh, Abilene Oh, Abilene Put him right back into her own I wasn't a match

That comes from Texas I can tell By the way He's two step in round the room How do you feel about that That girl in Vegas This is catchy, I like that Yeah

Choos in Texas Oh, that's the first time you've heard it I never heard that's first time I've heard it That's trending right now Man, I'm not with it. I'm always ahead of the trend. Going back. Sixth grade.

Sixth grade. I thought I was the only allowed to listen to country music. Spending the night at a friend's house, Ryan McGeehe's house. His older brother got... This is why Southern Baptist don't allow sleepovers. It's for this very thing right here. That's smart.

Smart. His older brother got the... What's the Dr. J. M&M album? Oh, chronic 2001. Is it the Chronic? Yeah, 2001, yeah. Great album. So 2001, he got that.

And I just remember listening to that thing like, I was like, dude, there's other types of music. Crazy. Let's do it like six times in a row, ten times in a row. I can't remember. I thought the only person that wrote music for a long time was John Wesley. And then later I found out the Stephen Curtis Chapman existed. And yeah, it takes a while.

good baptist home. Those are deep cuts. I don't get them. You're not spending mine. Yeah. No sleepovers. Where are we out with the chow talk? Chow talk.

It's more of a liquid chowl this week. Ooh. But we're going to end to the holiday season, so it felt appropriate. It can be a polarizing beverage for some folks. So I just want to hear your thoughts on eggnog, pro egg. eggnog, anti-egnog. Do you like the booze in the eggnog? Let's hear about it.

All the above. I'm in. I'm in on it, too. I had a sneaking suspicion that the audience I was going to be polling for this would be pro-egnog. The only problem with it is that a sugar, egg, and what else? Is that it's tied to a holiday? It should be a year-round drink all the time,

nonstop I think eggnog should be poured over cereal it's phenomenal oh that be so good love eggnog yeah I feel like I've done that before it's amazing yeah oh yeah great remember like the first time the first time having eggnog just like the name of it you're like oh this is like what is just like liquid eggs and then you try it and you're like oh no this is this is it's perfect it's like drinking cake batter drinks like drinking cake battered oh it's like drinking cake batter. Oh, it's so good. I actually prefer it.

I know some people like it with the booze, man. I, like, I prefer it. I think that ruins it almost. I'm kind of with you. I'm kind of with you. I love it on its own. You know, if, you know, a little holiday party and you want to liven it up a little bit, a little bit of booze in there.

What do you, is it usually whiskey or rum? I can even, I don't even know. I don't think whiskey. Yeah. yeah i find baby brandy i think brandy's all actually you might be right yeah i think it's something but but big egg nod fan if i'm drinking eggnog it's just like melted ice cream are you really and that's like that's what that's all i want man so consistency is great i love it uh okay pro egg do people not like it is that a controversial topic

i think there's some people that don't yeah yeah yeah you know i I would say the people who, you know why we like it, Jeff? Because we're, why is that? Because we're anti-Kish. Grow from the South in Texas. I wouldn't typically associate that with the, oh, excuse me, geography. I think the South owes up. Oh, we do it.

Salvo, rise again. First to succeed, okay, all right. You're tracking we started a civil war. You don't think we can make some eggnog, all right. Actually, we don't know fact. That's what they started the civil war about. That's what they're, yeah, people say slavery. It was actually about pro-egnog, anti-egnog, yeah.

We're fighting for our rats, our eggnog rats. To drink it year-round. Little bit you know, the ground. ground up ground up cotton it's just eggnog eggnog liquidified cotton

these carbon backers only wanted one month a year idiots they're probably my egg knocks my cold dead hand you come down again come and take it

you can't tax my eggnog I love this country but my home is in Virginia well Eggnog is made for Robert Elysson. That is what he said. It is what he said.

That's exactly what he said. I love federal government, but I love eggnog. No. Man, south of the one, we'd have had eggnog getting around, you know. That's true. It could have been. Instead, we got stuck with the Midwest. And that's, and that's it.

That's the only thing. That's it. Don't look into it further if you're not familiar with the Civil War. If you're not familiar with it at all, don't look any further. Don't look into it further. It's your one-stop shop. Yeah. Just wait till the Broghi administration takes.

We'll fix the history books. The Iraq war was actually about a college football playoff. No one knows that. Ball. Yeah, yeah. Saddam was upset. Saddam was upset. that he got kicked off the playoff committee.

Man, Condoleez is catching a lot of strays. Poor lady. I wonder, let's, let's go. Where's Condoleezza Rice now? What is she doing? She is a friend of the pot. Condoleza. Assume it's like it sounds.

Absolutely. Doing now. Let's see. She looks the same. You got to love the internet. She's the Hoover Institution, Director of a Hoover Institution at Stanford. And she teaches at Stanford School of Business.

She's on the board of C3.A.I. And McKinac Capital, she writes for foreign affairs. And she's still got her law firm, Rice, Hadley, BCS, and college football playoffs, LLC. I'm just kidding. That's what I'm going to do. Is it true? Yeah, no. I was so sad.

It's like, wait. Uh, she promotes liberty. She's in college football. What happens when you type in? Condoleezza Rice College football. Deeply involved in college football. No for a lifelong passion. As a coach's daughter, her first role was on the CFP selection committee,

2013 to 17. she values student athlete experience critical judgment and academic insight to sports at the highest levels she was initially a surprising but effective pick known for her analytical approach and work ethic she's got to be a Stanford alum right I assume here's a good question what does got to these rights have to do with football oh she's she owns the Broncos Wait, what? Conno Lisa Rice owns the Denver Broncos for four years,

the Denver Broncos. That's not true. I Google it. Oh, yeah, it is. I'm like the Indiana coach. Google me. Google me. She owns the Broncos. You heard it here first.

Okay podcast listeners, you think we just rambled about being from the South. Condoleezza Rice started the Iraq war and owns the Broncos. you're welcome you're welcome we a save rounds or alibis uh there was one what center city p hl oh philly go birds you got a got a battery full of birds fans uh center city center city philadelphia when i was living in south carolina and drilling south Carolina and drilling in New Jersey I would fly from Greenville to Philadelphia I'd usually stay in center

city on my way in or out CT Whitney look him up power build gyms got a couple he's got one in Ohio I think he's a two in Ohio just built a new gym in center city Philadelphia so like when you get to Philadelphia

what's the Batman movie the silver Batman 2. Batman returns. Dark night. Dark night. Silver Star. Dark night. That's where I was headed with that line of thought. Dark night. All the Gotham stuff. That area, Philadelphia, all those buildings with the little devils on them and stuff. Underground, built a gym. Center. Power builds. Yeah, gargoyles. That's what's seen up. Power build. Center city. Ton of strength of plates. ton of strength coat plates underground in Philadelphia go check out CT Whitney and PowerPill gyms got a lot of them really cool looking gym

I'm actually because of where I live now when I go to Jersey I think I'm going to fly in Newark but I got to make my way to Philadelphia to see this gym yeah my man's my man's a big supporter of Strength Co we appreciate his business but the new gym there in Center City Philadelphia I was watching his

Instagram today look up Powerbell it's like PWRBL d i think and uh man plates look good it looks sweet he like sets the lighting up right and it's everything it's like there's a power lifting uh section and some listeners most of our listeners or lifters may think power lifting just means barbell but there's like a no kidding like kilogram you know uh the squat racks where you can put away the safeties and you know the the bench presses with the safety stuff and there's like the regular what i would call barbell training area That's where the Stranco stuff is.

There's, I don't know, there's like massage chairs. There's everything you could imagine, but the plates in there look sweet. Like it is one of the cooler gyms that I've seen. And that's a guy that owns a gym. So, yeah, if you're in Philadelphia, go in there. I actually want to go. I want to go next time I get to get to Jersey. I want to go to Philly and hit up CT and go film a YouTube video because his gym looks awesome.

And a lot of respect to them, too. I think it's either gym four or five. And owning gyms, people own gyms, not to make money. So if you can open up a couple of them, you found a secret sauce to make them all work and still not make money. And that's what everyone's actually really after. So as to own a gym exists, so you don't have to close it but not make any money.

And he's done it. So, yeah, Center City, Philadelphia, go ring the Liberty Bell, and then ring some strength coat plates when you squat. man you need to get a uh what's dave portnoyce pizza app was it called yeah i know one bite everybody knows the rules yeah i know i do i do stringo plate you need gym one yeah one plate everyone knows the rules yeah but don't just buy one plate by like the hundred of them yeah yeah you buy one at a time well maybe one at a ton of shipping yeah that pizza spot

we hit in Jersey a couple weeks ago they've just been they've been flooding us with emails they're like hey man you talk about the okay podcast and thank you so much we can't we can't make enough sauce like there's a tomato's shortage it's crazy so they're struggling
