I'm the I'm the I'm the airline guy do this signal and the next exit. Yeah Do not take the computer with you to pee And welcome back to episode 330 of the Unpaid and Underrated Podcast. I'm one of your hosts, Big Keith, joined as always by Big Joey. All right. Bring the heat. And then we got Big Ron this week. Welcome to the podcast, Ron. I will finish my intro.

It is a podcast by crew for crew. Somehow I forgot to say that part of the sentence. I don't know why But here we are. This has been a we've been around about a three or feel like this is like a three or four week Hiatus since we've had a guest interview. So Buckle in boys. We're gonna get to know Ron Nichols this week. Don't buckle up. We're buckling in one or the other Did I did I miss up the analogy there? I also I also biffed you up by recording early because I think I'm gonna start recording early and not cutting it off right away. Yeah, that'll help. Some of the preamble and some of the after show like especially after the big one

where we had everybody on it like that was way funnier than anything. Yeah So yeah, I'm going to specifically Make sure I keep recording that and make more work for Nate because you know, he does fucking nothing. I mean It's a computer exit and that's an extra like seven minutes of audio content to you know Scrub, I think it'll be okay. Hey, see DOS slash cut or whatever. Flash edit slash unpaid underrated. He's pretty, you know, I think we're better. Right. Um, anybody drinking anything fancy this week? If not, let's just dump into where and the you drink anything good there, Ron.

Well, I found the lemon-lime poppy on sale save Jump on that How do you like those those are the ones that are a little more juicy aren't they they're like they're If I have those mixed up with something else this So it a replacement is what they're good at things that I can tell you I've got some water in my black label Society I've got some water in my Black Label Society mug there and I got some of this new thing here, fellas. It's the White Monster Obsidian Ammonia. That showed up yesterday. Have you hit that yet? No, actually as we were talking earlier, opened it, mixed it. It's hot.

It's still hot to the touch. So Code Unpaid, we'll hook you up with these. We've been actually, we're kind of leading in that realm there. We're some of the top, I don't want to say influencers, what do you call it, affiliates. We're in the top three right now of people using our code. So, hell yeah. I already want to ask what you're wearing, Ron, because I love it and I want to hear all about it.

Well, this is probably one of my first purchases. Pro hard. Also, that blue, I'm not going to the original curl hard, the car heart knockoff there that I think was only available at the Arnold from what I remember. Or did you order that one online? I got it online. So we must have got it. Interesting. must have been the only one that sat here. Interesting. Keith is frozen, everybody, in case you're wondering why he's not answering. And Ron, if you don't mind speaking up a little just to make sure that microphone's picking you up. I am wearing the Carps Gym shirt because today is Carp's birthday and I couldn't find the one I was gonna wear.

So I was like, wait a minute, I'm gonna wear one in in memory and love of our friend coach carp yeah so that's that I think Keith is wearing a shirt too but he's not here right now so for all of you who are interested yeah please donate to Keith's new laptop fund because he keeps buying fucking narrowed axle bars or because he keeps buying fucking knurled axle bars or whatever he keeps buying that he doesn't need rather than buying a new laptop to make this podcast go easier. He's left now. So he's actually gone. Do you want to get into last week's episode? What was last week's episode? I can't remember. Oh, the Arnold, it was the, um, the, the truck cast, right? The truck cast.

Yeah. As far as I know, but yeah, that was a, that was a good one. I always enjoy hearing how the boys do and, uh, glad to see that they're. Attempts to make it a little bit more, sorry, so effective for them, worked out for them, it sounds like. And, but I'm really, really good at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, like. And so I think I'm really good at having the arm. You know,

the guys confusing Tommy with the willy willy is always funny to me, is what I thought. You should have wool in your hair. Yeah. You know, so. Got to give them a five out of five, you know, are all the items on the table free? Oh, yeah. Yeah, that's a good call. I think I enjoy our once a year in-person podcasts

that we haven't had for quite some time. You know, the chemistry between these two is always great, so it's even better when they're in the same room and laughing together. You know, hearing some of that stuff, you know, hearing the crew version, because I was on that podcast, and then hearing their version, you really get a full ver- like, did nobody go to Brothers? Did nobody go to Brothers after, on Saturday, to hang out with everybody? Because I thought that was always like a big thing everybody did and I'm guessing nobody went this year so yeah I'm gonna

give that a five out of five pay on the spot drinks at brothers because they don't run tabs all right Keith has some stuff in here, but I am going to skip all of it. I have been asked next week to MC at a meet here in my local southern Ontario. It is something that I've always talked about wanting to do. So when they reach out to me to ask me specifically if I want to do it, it feels amazing. So next week it is called Legends 2, it is hosted at Apex Barbell. There's currently $10,000 worth of prizes for top lifters and stuff like that. So to be asked to come and MC something like that tells me I'm doing something right.

So I will hopefully be wearing my unpaid and underrated shirt unless they ask me to wear their mate shirt. And yeah, we're going to be doing some fun stuff there. That's really cool. I'm not going to be the next Gino because I will not dress like a pirate anytime soon, or rock star as he calls it. But yeah, it's this fun thing I want to do because it's like the idea, like I said before, that you

want to get in there and not only educate the crowd but entertain them at the same time right so you know you're talking about why the instead of just talking about oh that's some lights and this person is this person start talking about well this is why they got red lighted or even you know cut the music 30 seconds beforehand I'm gonna show you what a good lift looks like right so that you know that if you don't see it because some people have never been to a lifting meet before and I think that I think I could have some fun doing that you know educating some of

the newcomers and also like have the crowd involved in that you know because the last time I was there and I called some some red-lit deadlifts and people were coming and yelling at me and I'm just like like no you hitched you can't hitch in powerlifting and so yeah I'm pretty excited about that that's that's pretty dope that's like a it's a big honor I think to be asked to come and MC a meat because I'm not doing any meets anytime soon I'm pretty retired at this point, but Keith is still trying to join in for the most of those of you who can't see he's he's currently now logged in twice on two separate devices and Still not here. It's going here. Oh my

You are here. I have to account logs. I mean Can you mute one of them gosh I feel like I'm in a horror movie okay just kick one out you gonna kick one of these wookie leaves out or what? yeah I am I'm gonna boot one of these wookie leaves out or what? Yeah I am. I'm gonna boot one of these. Wonderful. Hey, well good on you Big Joey for, you know, explaining what's going on because I'm sure 90% of people are just like, yay my husband's doing this and then you know, explaining the

backs really away and just why it's not working. Yeah, yeah like this is what a good lift looks like. It's just me like even if I just go up with the bar and somebody holds the mic or whatever, where it's just like, this is how the lift should look. It goes up, it goes down. There's no hitching. There's locked hips, locked knees and things like that. Um, that, yeah, just so it eliminates some of that. My husband's doing this or my daughter's doing this and I don't know why they're getting red lit. So I'm gonna yell about it later

This is part of the reason why right so Maybe maybe I can't do that every meet, but I think you know, maybe I'll have some fun doing it in this meet Well, definitely look forward to hearing about it later You're on Throw up the live stream They have their own media team and maybe if I can I'll jump on the live stream for maybe some of the bench or something like that. But they have their own team that does that so I don't think the live stream actually includes what the MC is saying. So you know maybe I'll sort that out but that's that is what it is.

There's half the entertainment side of it. You could talk about it. Right. and half the entertainment's gone, if we don't move, you can't talk about it. Right? Well, maybe you could go ask Gino and still wear a kilt to the event and- I think I definitely have to wear a kilt. Spice it up. Yeah, I think I kinda have to,

or at least wear some jorts. I think if I don't wear jorts, people would be shocked. Mm-hmm. Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha. At the Arnold, at the USAPL meet, they did a really good job. They were running two platforms, and they actually had two mic guys. So Gina was on one and then a guy from the vast state of New York that I'm familiar with

from out in Albany was on the other. And they were like, they had a really good cadence to like not talk over each other, but still like basically give each platform. It's a, you know, it's, it's, it's, it's due, if you will. So I thought it was pretty neat. So we were driving over the Skyway Bridge today and the Skyway Bridge is between Hamilton and Burlington. And as you drive over the Skyway Bridge, Lake Ontario is on one side and the Bay of Hamilton is on the other. And if you look over, you can see Toronto, right?

Like if you, if it's a clear day like it was today, you can see the CN tower and everything. My son's in the back seat and he goes, daddy, I can see New York. Smart ass. And my wife goes, no, New York is not that close buddy. And I was just like, it is the biggest state in the US. So it might be that close. It's the biggest in the Northeast. It's the biggest state in the US, so it might be that close. It's the biggest in the Northeast. It's the biggest Northeast state. Yeah, she's like, damn it, how did I not catch that? It was pretty funny.

Oh, just good. Good stuff. Hey, he just remembers the time he came to visit you. That's all he remembers. Good times. Good times. Let's see. Well, I'm sure I missed a lot, so we won't I will not rehash any of that

But if it's not if it's not you to highlight everything he has chatted on so Darko's youtube either if you get a chance to watch the the youtube video of Darko's gym. Nope Okay, it'll be there. It'll be there. It was it's a long one too. It's like I mean I enjoyed it It was like 35 minutes. So I was able to watch it during lunch But it was good times. It was a good time. so I was able to watch it during lunch. But it was good times. It was good times. I'm anxious to see the rest of the... They should have a few more sandbagged from out

in California, I believe, from that trip. So that will be fun. And they're on, I think they're actively on a trip right now. If you were at the Arnold, you probably, Tanner might have pulled you aside and told you the story, but we will not release the beans yet since they did not release the beans on their end. So, uh, just, just know that I know and you don't know. I just took a hit of this ammonia by the way, in case you're dying over here.

I thought you did the white monster. I did. How did that? Did that, did that taste like, did that smell like a taste or was it? Yeah, it does. And then it also Like you're paying. I love this podcast. Everything's Good stuff

So the tanner clean in the tiny horse stall mat pieces Dave everybody else saw that on What's going on? I don't know. It didn't look like enough to be a present or a, you know, the crew gift, because that would be like fucking 600. And he was like working off of a palette. So something was palletized and he was like cleaning it. I don't know. I don't think it's for us. I think it's, I really, I really don't fucking know, but I don't think there's enough to be like, now that would be a really funny gag gift. Like a signed Tanner stall mat piece or some shit like that would be really funny. By Matthew Horstall. Yeah. Yeah.

They even that too. But like that would be so many. I like, I think if you look at the picture, I swear there was like a pallet ties with shrink wrap on it and he was like pulling off of that and then putting them in a bucket. So I'm like, it would have to be so many. Well, he was cleaning the smell off of them is what he was doing. Yeah. But like four, I've got four by six Matt cut into like two inch pieces.

I'm not big math over here. So the square footage of that would be a lot, but, uh, it would be a lot of little pieces, but no one sitting there with a jigsaw cutting up a thousand pieces. I think they were pre-cut from what I saw. Yeah. Um, but I don't know. Everything started out in this big April 1st drop that nobody's buying into. Yeah, that's all super crockin' shit.

We'll see. Yeah, or it's real and it's going to be so outrageous that all of us go, that's not real and nobody buys it or we all buy it and get surprised when it shows up. I'm curious what it'll be. I'm very curious. It's sus. It's sussy Tanner. Nobody's buying into your April 1st drop, but the reverse uno card of actually releasing something interesting on that day would be like, Mastnomix would do that. Do you know what I mean? Like they would be the ones to go, no, no, no, like

we're legitimately releasing something stupid and It's gonna be so interesting. You're gonna buy it. But like most of you won't believe it. Like I kind of see them doing that Because you know Tanner and Tommy Have a sense of humor whereas most companies out there. Don't worry now. It's true. I Just wanted to thank big Scott Dodds for my t-shirt last week. Sorry I'm not wearing it tonight. It is definitely in the dirty laundry, but I did wear it this weekend and I got a nice little lift in it.

So appreciate you big, big hot. That was nice and kind of you. And another, I got some new stickers from James aka Robo aka the cage gym aka the occupational I'm going to butcher his Instagram handle, but yeah, you know who he is. Uh, good dude. A minute at the Arnold this weekend, last weekend, two weekends ago, sometime in this year.

Uh, yeah, appreciate you fellas. And I did, I was pretty funny. Like, uh, I don't know. I think I threw in there like crew sending crew stickers is literally keeping the post office in business because there are so many crews. Like I bought stamps for the first time and like as an adult, maybe not the first time as an adult, but like I actually had to go buy stamps because I had to like mail so many out there at one point recently. And I'm sure other people are like, damn, I'm going through a lot of stamps. Speaking of speaking of stickers, I actually sent Carp a pretty heavy dose

of the Dilf Dungeon stickers. So the guests, not Carp, sorry, Jeff. Jeff, yeah. Yep, sorry, I'm wearing Carp's shirt. So if you are a guest on this podcast and you would like a Dilf Dungeon sticker and are not offended or confused by what that phrase means, we'll make sure you get one in your thank you package.

You know, so I even said to him when I was like, let's be careful who we send these ones to. Some people aren't so into the Dilfe idea. Package. A little package with your package. Yeah. Speaking of Jeff, he did, some King of the Hill was brought up, oh, it's cause Jeff did some King of the Hill was brought up.

Oh, it's because Jeff made the King of the Hill meme about me in harkening to my Arnold walk where I couldn't feel my shins. So then he made a cotton hill. I can't feel my shins thing and then like made it me. And then like, I was like, oh, and then it got me thinking like, man, I haven't watched King of the Hill in like 20 years. And I believe there's a new, it's either a spinoff or a new season, either, either. I think it's actually labeled as a new season, not like a new series.

Uh, but I went back and looked and I think the original run was like 97 to 2008. And I definitely didn't watch that show after like 2003 or four, probably. So like, I just, I did start a complete rewatch. I'm on the episode like four or five. I just, I binge like a couple hours of it the other night. And damn, it's funny. Like it's, I think cause Jeff specifically said, like, watch it as an adult. It's completely different perspective.

And I'm like, Oh yeah. Like, hi, I'm not like, you know, cause I would have been like essentially like Bobby's age, you know, like a 10, 11, 12, I would have been 12 when it came out initially when I was watching it. So like, you know, was that like seventh, 30th grade, just a complete little asshole, you know, and only thought the kid side of it was funny. But yeah, looking at the adult side now

and like getting all the jokes, like I for sure didn't get like 80% of the show, I think watching it in 97, as I did like watching it a couple nights ago. So I'll see how far I get through that rewatch before I get bored, but you know, we'll see. So far so good and that was that was oh yeah funny bring up the other I'm trying to figure out the pot and she was and then I think that

meme went over like 87% of the people's heads for sure and then funny enough I was just yelling quotes at my one of my co-workers today about that's my purse, I don't know you. Quoting at each other, just yelling to make noise at each other. That's my purse, I don't know you. Exactly. Well, I feel like my heart is trying to jump out of my throat right now, so we should probably get the guest on the horn

Yes, kick these lucky Lewis out and see if we can't get a big run on the horn Say you buddy Hey, how we doing today? Welcome. We're gonna unpaid underrated their big Ron. How are you? Oh good. Thanks for having me Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Well, we'll do go and hit you with the hard ones. What brought your Mastomix bud? um, I think originally I was Well, we'll go and hit you with the hard ones. What brought you to Mastomix, bud? I think originally I was, you know, got into lifting, got back into working out of the land in there. Was also driving out to Lincoln City, coastal town, got two hours from my house and got

really tired of listening to music and then started on the podcast. Somehow I went through Instagram and we were just, however, I stumbled upon the Mass Knowledge podcast and started going through the backlog and kept current the best I could. And I had a little time off and then back on it and then listening to the rest of the backlog. And then when did you decide to join crew? A little later after I journeyed out as an electrician. Um, and actually time it was like, okay, cool. I'm actually able to consistently let it not be like the frog when I'm just looking at all this stuff and listening to the boys and.

What's the deal with its thirty six bucks a year how can I not afford to do this is great and have the. Community as a word. I'm not very good at posting things that have been really cured by you don't say. Been ripped cured by you don't say How much research that I do on Ron three posts and I couldn't find him on Facebook so not You're good brother, so we're weird is it will mostly be a show notes inspired episode with the minimal Yeah inspired episode with minimal yeah we got plenty to go off of though so that's good so like so but do you so I know you don't post on social media at all really do you actually like do you consume much Mastodon mix via Instagram or is it only the podcast

oh I'm a big nerd as it were okay there's a cat. Oh, there's a kitty. Our boy Arthur. Orange boy, of course, because there's no orange humans. Correct. He just heard his dinner. I'm the automatic eater. So that was wild. I think the cat, did the cat make a big noise just now or was it behind me? I can't I can't tell but I like I just freaked out

Gotcha cuz I was like, why none of us better? Yeah Good stuff. Hey my change. Give me a second. Oh, get naked. Jesus Christ. So I love my wife. Get over it. I understand. She's hot. Big Ron, we're going to find you on on Instagram or Discord so they know who we're talking to? Well, Big Ron on Discord, Tapp, Undersore, Ron on Instagram.

He's got six posts. Yeah, six posts. It's real, real interesting, riveting in fact. Yep. Not a single lifting thing. You're not tagged in anything. It's I think the only lifting history I saw was something you might've shared in our little group chat that we have for the big but new Lift Hard Live Easy there.

So Keith messages me like he does all the time and he goes, hey, just a heads up, I'm gonna post this. You might wanna make sure you're following him. And I was like, I follow him and I don't know why. He's only got like six posts. Well, there are times, like, that's kinda why I thought you might not have, because he only had like, he had a very,

he didn't have a big crew following at that point, because he didn't give a private account to, I believe. Maybe not, maybe a mistaken. I've been following him for a while, apparently. I was just like, I follow him, but like, not tension. I'm not sure why. Probably sent you, probably sent you some sort of unpaid underage joke or something that I thought you'd be

fun to play. Oh, okay. This guy, this guy, this guy, he's in. We try. We try. It's good stuff. Um, do you have an ad read for us before we jump into the next part of this? Oh, I butchered that earlier, didn't I?

Shh. I was just going to gloss over it and you're just going to admit to it. I don't, I, well, as we established earlier that I'm not, I don't, I don't, well as we established earlier that I'm not, I don't, I don't, I'm not a liar uh Gary, Gary, I'm fucking, I'm five foot seven three. Five seven three in court? Fucking hell. I can't say five seven or five eight, I'd be a liar. Dude, nobody cares. Anyway Ron, do you have an ad for us? Yeah. If you like listening to two Midwest folk, just, you know, fitting and fit and talking about everything, car talk all the way from, you know, Mary's truck to how great the savers

are. You know, this might be the podcast for you. Go ahead and give her a listen. If you ever need to pick me up on a Monday morning, it's the best place to get it. Uh, listening to these guys definitely helped me get through the Monday throughs and just thinking about when BS and all the different random drugs. Well, every Monday is just another day closer to Monday. What's your hall of fame status? Do you have one?

Oh shoot. I was going to double check that before I got on. We got distracted. Um, I think I'm quite a few away from even hitting the 12. The year or two out, even with going to live, probably easy to screen this year that would hit me around ten. Anything over one is awesome. Even if this is your one, everything over one is a good answer so don't don't be

too worried about that. Now you've got some like old-school Mastinomics stuff there, the hat, the shirt. The girl heart I think was... Was pretty me. Yeah, I might have. I don't know. I don't remember if it was ever out when I was in Crew, or if it was just all like harkening of it. Yeah, I didn't even know about it and I've been here since 2000...

21. So that was even before I joined crew or even started following last year. So. What do you think you missed? Is there something that you wish they would bring back? Yeah, I definitely was thinking the metal on it and then I had to jump on it. I get. The coat. But then I don't know if I was just listening to more of your guys' backlog or it just came up to the one. Uh, but the hooked ripped t-shirts with the zombie

to get a grip. Yeah. That one. Yeah. Um, I definitely missed on that one. I'm saying, I don't know. I like it, but I don't know how much the life would like me wearing a zombie t-shirt, but she doesn't like anything zombie souls much at all. Yeah. It would be me. And then I'd have to wear it when she's not around, which is, you know, why would I get to wear shirts I want to wear other than I have his orange or I have his construction? But I do love that shirt. I I can't wear it anymore because, you know, I got fat. But it definitely is one of my favorite massonomic shirts of all time.

I've worn it to the Arnold. I've worn it to death or death grips, deadlift competitions and things like that. So yeah, yeah, I think you're the first person to bring that one up actually And that is one of my favorites It's a banger. It's a banger So Ron I definitely hear a little twang in there where are you from and where do you currently live? I'm living in Oregon. I don't know how you hear It's that mic that's not hooked up maybe like mine. Oh, no, you're good. You're good. Okay. So, maybe it's

a it's a west coast twang. That's a thing, right? The west coast twang. I'm envious of you. It's only what's six o'clock out there. Oh, I'm jealous. Yeah, six o'clock. I was I was having to do the math. You guys sent me 830 Eastern. What does that turn into me? Okay. I'll leave work early. I guess you're twisting my arm. You need to let go. Oh man. Sorry about that. That's, uh, I'm glad you made it home for us. Oh, so always, always, always been out there or kind of a bounce around or anything or? No, grew up in Lebanon, moved to a little while.

Uh, met my wife, had a kid then decided by a house. It was like, well, it's Lebanon's in our price range and it's close to my family. Not terribly far from her father because they're, they're just in Coralas and home with her OSU. The dealers have. Stacked in college. Um, and then here and I'm grateful. It's been a rough year so far. Thankful that I've been able to be close to this lot and visit and to take care of experts with what's going on. I I said that just recently about a hospital after

a 58 day stay in Boussard. You know, when the family does is circle around and say, well, what can we help with? What can we do? Make sure my grandmas are dead. Yeah. Having the family close definitely helps for sure, especially if that's going on We have this game we like to play Like four times Okay, it's keeps getting like more I was like, I'm just letting build up like one of one of us will say it So it went in doubt one of I don't think you ever said that. It was like two out of line, but it was like, but no, we are,

we are sorry. That's all going down, but that is good that you are, you know, so close. Nobody, nobody out buddy. Luckily everybody saw him and getting better. So that's all we can hope for. Is there any crew out and about your way? I haven't really looked at the Oregon map of, uh, certified gyms. Certified gyms.

I know there's one about 45 minutes north of me. Uh, let me think. Someone's though, I haven't, I haven't reached out. Gotcha. But yeah, just, just mine, the honey bear, uh, barbell club. I got that name. And that's what my life calls me was honey bear. I don't know where you're from necessarily other than hold me Ron bear and honey bear I think truly

after I started following her honey bunny there you go so then you are a home gym guy it sounds like it sounds like if you're you're you're you're working kind of all over the place and got a long commute so that home Jim's got to come in handy, huh? Oh yeah, yeah. Luckily, right now I'm doing a 410 shift, starting there at six o'clock driving, and then already two hours. So definitely need more of the weekends. We have to get that like three o'clock,

and doing some career die hard like that. Just can't get myself out there. I can't do that either. Yeah, you can kind of double up and get a, for sure, get like a Friday Sunday or a Friday Saturday and then just squeeze one training session in during the week on like your least shitty day. Basically, that's kind of what I do. Yeah. Or just say, how about that and just go two days a week and just train on the weekends. Yeah.

With Keith being 39 years and three quarters old. How many, or however many months? I wonder, did anyone fact check Scantz's math? Did he actually calculate that out or did he just- No, we're not big math. We're gonna leave that up to him. But no, I'm the same way. It's one of those like, I'm scheduled for four days a week.

I'm so happy to hit three. And then like implement day, cause I'm doing the strongman on juggernaut like implement days only like 45 minutes And I'm just like we're gonna get this out of the way as fast as possible And just get in get out. Yeah, yeah, and you know just be tired on one shift, so I know I get that man Do you want to hit least fun most fun? You do have that next here? It's about to do that. Yes, sir. So big Ron Do you want to explain to the guests how we play least fun most fun what the rules are? Well least fun. You just say that it is least fun or it's the most fun part No, you get a topic

Well, I was kind of hoping that that's been my new running joke is that people just the it's good stuff. I'm glad he did that. You get one topic and you just say the least fun or the most and the most fun part of said topic. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. It is hard. I mean, I even though you say it in your head, it's like to verbalize it every week. It's just like, ah, fuck. did I butcher it or not?

I literally butchered saying butchers. Oh my god. I'm such a cunt. All right, and I said No, I was thinking of the show first. We're though ready to go Then we do we're not supposed to did I miss that well, I didn't have any internet issues Okay, so at least fun most fun disc golf All right, this ball the most fun is, is, uh, just getting out, walking around the woods, hitting things with trees, evidently, um, just hanging out. It, it's relatively free to play. Just pay the X amount you want to pay for the plastic thing you want to throw in the woods.

Um, and then obviously the least fun is really just either drip lock or shank in the disc or hitting a tree and it just goes off and can't find the thing. My cap is about half an hour wandering around the blackberries and getting all scratched up and okay forget about it I'm done I'm gonna I'll replace it I guess. Okay, forget about it. I'm done. I'm gonna I'll replace it. I guess I'm just mad about it. Yeah You're at your name and number on it and hope good Samaritan finds it and calls you and low Oh, hey, here it is and I'll return it or we drop it off at this random store Now I've never played disc golf although I probably should, because I'm pretty damn

good at can jam, if you know what game that is. I think we talked about it before. It's essentially, it's horseshoes with frisbees. On a tiki torch or on a stick essentially? No that's a different version of it. This one comes with a round, it's essentially like a trash can with a slit cut in the front. And you have to throw it to your partner,

and your partner has to either like you hit the can, you get some points. If they knock it into the top of the can, you get extra points. If you get it into the slit, you win the game automatically. That's what she said. Yeah, that's what she said. I'm very good at the rower of the frisbee, not the person that knocks it in.

But like, yeah, I'm I'm very good at that. So I really should be playing disc golf. So are you buying calibrated? Like frisbees? Yeah, how does that work? Like is there like golf level frisbees? Yeah, how does that work? Like is there like golf level frisbees? Or you just go to the dollar store and just like buy as many free ones as you can? Yeah, there's PDF approved professional disc golf association,

approved brands and the words, dimensions and blah, blah, blah. Each disc is going to throw differently. It's definitely not going to throw like the ultimate disc that you might, or the Dollar Tree disc. It's going to be a 180 grams down to 155. There might be some bubble plastic. They hold air pockets into the disc for smaller needle arms to lean and toss them Sorry my cats outside the cat is as welcome as my naked wife was Listen to this and kill me for that. Keith is like, damn it, Joey.

Just like crickets out of my microphone. I'm not coming on someone's naked wife. Dude, what? I said commenting. Oh, I thought you said commenting. That's not what I heard. Oh no. You said coming on somebody's naked wife.

Oh no, I definitely. My, well, no. Ron's like, what the hell did I get into? These two are idiots today. No, no, I've definitely listened to enough backlog. Yeah, we're doing every. So how'd you, oh, sorry. You're good.

Finish what you're saying. Sorry. Oh, but anyways, I mean, the cheapest you can find is he's got 10 bucks or maybe maybe five bucks out of a plate again. Uh, sports depending on your we've just all for now. And, and just as a follow-up, how wild is it to have the, ask that question and have an answer. Like, did you, if somebody said 10 years ago, somebody's going to ask you about

calibrated frisbees and you're going to have an actual answer. I would have been like, I would have been like, shut up nerd. And now I'm just like, no, I distinctly remember this one was better than the other one. And I could throw that one. Well, luckily enough for me, I've wandered around the course with my dad when I was doing random things, both things. And then as I, you know, after the tradition is, is drag my daughter around

to random courses with him, but she's more interested in the mud and the dirt and the sticks than, than anything. Oh, get interested in the rocks and we'll talk. He's going to try to pick stuff up. Go pick that up. I bet you can't. But, uh, two weekends ago, she was talking, Oh, we should go just fulking this weekend if it's, if it's good weather.

Yeah. I got to jump on this opportunity. She's actually showing interest and she did an amazing job. I cut it off early. Uh, one, because half the force was still flooded and soon it was just kind of flowing and it was just kind of flowing. It was just going randomly. Okay, well, we better stop before we lose the disk,

as Brie easily mentioned, that was the worst part. And on a good note, we still have it a good number. We have a good time, so we're more interested. That's fantastic. I got a quick question. It's probably something I might actually start trying to ask some of the or reoccurring questions. So when we proposition you to be on the podcast

and you know you're green and all that, how do you tell your partner you're going to be on this podcast? Like how long of a conversation was to explain what the unpaid generated podcast is and why you are going to be a guest and why you have to leave work early to be a guest on this podcast and how you need a two hour window to not be a dad or a husband to be on this podcast.

I want to hear how that went. Well, luckily enough, I already told my wife, hey, you know, this cult that I'm kind of involved in and, you know, the company that I spend most of my money on for clothing, other than work clothes, has this other podcast. And I already explained to her about, yeah, these silly guys, the silly hawk shirt guy and the other guy in Canada wanted to talk to me over this podcast. That's a good. Oh, the world podcast. So luckily, it wasn't too hard of a swing.

If you was already, you know, in the know of the silly goose or even. Oh, yeah, you could do it. You've done nothing but 100% supportive. That's awesome. I think that will be a good reoccurring question. I got to remember. Yeah, I think that's one of the best answers we could get. Yeah, I like that. Because we're gonna get some people that are like,

oh, they have no clue what's going on and they don't care. Oh, that's kind of a thing. Yeah. That's good. All right, Honey Bear, we asked people what you do and I don't know how much you wanna talk about this. Feel free to talk about it as much or as little, but I just like that you're called a lightning wizard. Another good

one is a power ranger. Yeah, that's a little direct. I like that one. Yeah. Yeah. An electrician, journeyman electrician inside where I live. He's was on that license. So right now I'm working on Oregon University of Oregon campus science center. Just making sure that they have power where they need it. I'm on distribution which is so power comes in from typically power lines. It's some sort of transformer goes into the building and then from transformer in the building into different electric rooms. That's what I'm running is the distribution to the electric room, electric room.

And then the branch circuits that are going on from electric room to end use point. The plug-ins rely on your general motor. So what's going on? Working on the hardware. We're running a big pipe as you can see. And then on the conductors. And terminating.

Making sure lightning safety is done, general grounding and bonding, so no one's going to get shocked for electrocuted folks, you know, for issues with the program. Well that's kind of exciting. It's an exciting way to describe something that I'm not sure I understand. But luckily, when I flick the lights, things turn on and I have people like you to thank for that. Well, it more and more I learned about it. It's all black magic.

And just trust that if I do this tested and improved thing that I'm told to do, it's gonna work out just fine. So true. I mean, the next one we talk about is obviously farm strength. We talk about that a lot. So let's get into your lifting history if you don't mind. Yeah. You know, just working around the farm, having to move general stuff, put up fencing, and housing, ranch stuff. I didn't think about it too much.

Strengthening there. Started enjoying lifting ice fillers in and out of it, dabbling here and there. Started into it a little bit more home recreation. There and there, bought some dumbbells, oh sorry, loadable dumbbells myself, just the plate, the OS and the bench. Doing random stuff there. Bought the house, expanded later on to the home gym,

got the squat rack and got more interested in it. on to the home gym, got a squat rack and got more interested in it. Having to work those long days and going to school and apprenticeship, I lose a day of wages to going to school and having the weekends of spending time with my family and also doing the homework and stuff. I've kind've been hitting this since during the month. I've been more motivated. Let's just freaking do it and be strong and do what you enjoy. Do it straight from my mental health and I'm a lot easier to be around. I feel easier to be around after I've gotten the workout in there too. And then just turning out that FOMO of last year's with Cardi B, easy.

All right, I'm just going to do it. I'm going to sign up for Dr. Non. I'm going to really do what I can to make this happen. And that's where we are now. And we're just kind of having fun, throwing around the weights weights. And there's a monkey that likes lifting heavy things. So you're, you're running juggernaut. The, are you doing strong man? Um, yeah, I think that's the program I signed up for, you know, it seems like

it's semi power building accessories. Maybe because I'm also doing the strong man and I'm not a huge fan. I've heard that a lot of people. So there's a lot of glitches and I haven't done anything over RPE seven since I started. Oh, really? Yeah. And I'm wondering, like, what's going on? Like, it's got me doing like 175 pounds squats

Oh, and it's like but like I have a three plate squat like why am I doing? 175 pounds I Don't know if maybe I'm programming it wrong or something like that, but like it's it's definitely sandbagging me I know my deadlift has decreased a little bit. My squat has decreased, my bench is going up, which is weird. But Yeah, so far I've submitted a few bugs. I'm in chat now with Kevin and actually chat himself About like what's going on? Why is this this way? Why can't I? Why is it giving me pending for all of my Amrap reps? Why is it this? Why is it that? So for all of my Amrap reps. Why is it this? Why is it that? So maybe... Having done any Amrap sets and maybe I've still been under power building block?

Yeah, maybe you didn't actually sign into the Strongman one because I do Amrap twice a week. I either do bench or squat or block pulls or something so but yeah either way it just is not working and I'm I miss lifting heavy and it's starting to bother me oh sorry yeah I kind of said something there everyone quiet so went from farm lifting home lifting you've got a gym now what's some of the implements that you're using to get ready for the lift hard live easy because I understand neural axles are on the table now oh is it neural I'm gonna say there's a night so Tanner owns one neural axle and you know it basically Jake wants to you know start acquiring more stuff but I don't

think he's gonna drop three hundred dollars in another axle so it's probably gonna be a smooth axle just because everybody was whining there in abundance. Yeah Axle and then everybody's like the more you question it more Jake is gonna make us do it. Yeah I like a knurled axle But the one I have is fairly passive in comparison to the black widow one which is what Tanner has because I had used that at Hogan's or last week a couple weeks ago and Clean impression with that one would actually kind of suck. I think cuz had used that at Hogan's or last week, couple weeks ago. And the clean impression of that one would actually kind of suck, I think

because it's so it's, it's like a chewy it's it's like it's like the agro three bar from rogues like aggressive neural it's wild how aggressive it is. But yeah, that was what, what would be the benefit of a neural to axle bar? So when you're cleaning it to your stomach, it's not going to roll down your chest because it's kind of granted like chalk and stuff will help that. But isn't the idea to make it harder?

Like that's the point. Like if I wanted knurling, I would just use a power bar. I know it's really, a lot of people said like in the UK, that it's like most, maybe not most, but it is a lot more common to see knurled axles in competition. And there are some like competitions over here I've seen that are starting to use some neural axles.

So I think it's just a little bit of variety. I'm so new to the sport that I'm not like, oh my God, it has to be a smooth neural, it has to be a smooth axle because that's what it's been for 50 years. Like I don't- I've been doing this for 10 weeks. Here's my expert opinion.

Strongman's only existed for like 13 months for me. So I don't know. I just, I personally, I just, the idea of it of if I wanted knurling, I would use my power bar. I that's just what it's nicer on like a strict press day too. And I don't know what I'm not actually like doing a strongman movement. I'm just doing a barbell press, but just with my axle. It's just, it's, it is nice.

Are you not when you're doing an axle, this is for both of you. Are you doing full grip or are you doing like thumbs out for press? I'm suicide grip for sure. I can't, my hands, my hands too small, but it's still, I mean, I was doing full grip and then today or yesterday I was just like, Hey, this is way easier. And I was doing suicide. Like this feels way better. Right.

Cool. So it's not just me, Ron. I haven't tried the suicide group with the over press with the axle. Yeah. It just been doing. It feels a little better, right? Like you're- I think a lot of it just still depends

on how big your hands are possibly too. Yeah, but I have tiny baby hands. I know, that's what I'm saying. If you have bigger hands, if Ron, assumingly, if Ron potentially has big ass hands, you won't notice as much like, where you and I, like an axe always bigger than our fucking palm.

Yeah, okay. Isn't that the point of of the using the bench press with the barbell through the middle fingers, the Vulcan press or whatever? Vulcan, I call it like Velociraptor. So Vulcan actually is better. But yeah, yeah, OK. It's a different wrist feel. Yeah, I was going to say, wrist feel feels like mouth feel. Yum, yum, yum. It's kind of like how you want to do it.

So when you saw the lift hard... So you said you got some FOMO from last year, and were you pretty much just going to sign up for whatever was available, Strongman or Powerlifting, or do you have a preference? Because you are, you know, signed up in the Strongman show. So how did that come to be? And would powerlifting have been fine too? Well, powerlifting would have been fine, I suppose. I had my heart set on the Strongman

because this sounds more like banging out with the voice of just, okay, I bet you can't move this thing as much as I can. The little redneck in me is just like, okay, let's just pick up this heavy thing and move it. You know, your turn, dude. Sounds like a standard good time. It's hanging out. BS and moving stuff. Yes, sir. Have you ever done like an actual sanctioned show or powerlifting meet in the past? No, I haven't had any pockets. This is my debut and then just really for the rest of the year.

Is there much of a like have you looked for shows near you or meets like are you in a place where there actually is like if you wanted if say you fall in love with competing you want to compete a couple times of times a year, not only at lift hard, live easy, do you, what do you have options out there? I've looked around a little bit. It seems hit and miss. And then also by the time I remember to look for it, it's already full or, or it's, no, I don't really want to lose that weekend. That's when something's happening. So I'm sure if I made it more of a priority for me,

I could back to your, I mean, just to, I made that like smooth and heavy things. And happy to do that in the garage and getting the buddies when I can. That would be fun. No, that'll be fun. That'll be a good time. No, I'm glad we were able to get you on this podcast

as someone who is essentially as a self-labeled, you know, lurker and not so interactive. Like, I think this will help you, you know, people are, you know, at least 10 people there that had listened to this podcast that are going to be like, hey, I know who Ron is. I recognize that guy from the thumbnail. I know who he is. I know he does this and this. Yeah, I look forward to it. I'll try harder for you guys to actually post and reach out onto this page. Share what's going on. Did you just fart, Joey? No.

No, no. Was it your chair? Jesus Christ. Yeah, it's my chair. It's a stupid wobbly chair. That was loud. It was the most perfect little fart sound ever. And I'm just like, and it was like as you were like,

lifting a cheek. And I'm like, did he literally just fart into his microphone? I'm just and it and it was like as you were like lifting a cheek Are you still on that dumb balance chair thing like don't get me started but also yeah, that was a fart Okay, apparently I've missed doing this because I'm having a hell of a time It's my sister. Oh shit. Oh yeah, okay. I apparently have missed doing this because I'm having a hell of a time. It's been a minute since we've had this. The route, I love the round tables, but it's definitely, this is more interactive, more intimate. It's not the right word, but you know what I mean. It is. It is the exact word you're looking for, but you don't want to say it. Yeah, it's okay.

You can say anything. You can say it, it's a comfortable space here. Oh, did you guys? It's a safe place. If this is a quick little plug for Lipsard Livesey, if anyone who's going has a chance, Kevin posted a Sheets link in Discord, I believe, tainter tab, not tagged, but pinned it.

So go in there and add all your info. And it was funny, Kevin got kind of funny with it. And like the last question was, what is your most intimate level of like, acknowledging another person? So like bro hug, handshake, high five, and like kiss on the cheek and everything. And it was just, it was really funny. A couple of people did like kiss on the cheek. I think I just did a full

hug. But more of a reminder, if you are going out, it does help, you know, to kind of fill that spreadsheet up so people can kind of have a gist of who's going. So get on that. I believe it's should just you have to go check out the Discord discord link there it's pinned. And now I'm fairly certain Matt's going to choose docking. Oh, yes. So that, that's really funny because that's like that circle, like docking was brought up this week and another in my home gym circle and my, in one of my other group chats that someone had like jokingly said docking for some reason. Oh, I think we were talking about Darko's doc possibly, and then that

segwayed into docking and it was just like, it was, it was bad. We're not going to explain docking on this podcast because we don't want to bother Jeff because if you guys recall, um, somebody brought up, um, something vulgar that he Googled, wouldn't it? No, no. So somebody brought up, you said eat my eyes. Oh, OK. And somebody went, well, I thought that was a DILF dungeon specialty

because of the one logo that I made that my wife made, which was lift rocks and eat ass, which goes back to I just listened to the Arnold episodes, episode 101 and 102 to Brandon something because he was saying gain mass And eat ass right? Oh, yeah. Yeah, brand. Yeah, I know who I've got I got a weird story about that guy, too Well, either way I was funny hearing that cuz I was just like yeah I can see this the evolution of that becoming a normalized joke in in in powerlifting and lifting and then I joke in powerlifting and lifting. And then I said, I just posted the picture and then somebody else said, or Ryan said, explain it to me like I'm eight.

And then Matt came in with the most vulgar explanation ever, which was like, sometimes when mommy and daddy's love each other daddy will tongue punch mommy's fart box and then it went on like and then nobody said anything for like two hours and then Jeff just went I hate it here and it was so perfect And it was so perfect. And you're like, you didn't even, we, he didn't have to say what he is responding to, but we knew. He was just like, I hate it here. And it was like, yep, I can see that. I could, I can see how that escalated to that level.

Anyway, what were we talking about? Docking? Circle back on that, Which is more intimate. Circulator slap in the ass. That's occurred that too. Circle, jerk, slap in the ass or a hug. Well, slap on the ass. As long as you say good game is slept a lot of crew in the ass.

I think. Yeah. Yeah. That makes it okay. What about just pure eye contact and slap? I'd rather sorry. How are you slapping an ass with eye contact? That's a reach around. I have shorts. I have rather sorry. How are you slapping an ass with eye contact? Yeah, that's a reach around that short. I have short arms

What the hell are we doing tonight Yeah, what's your uh, what's what's your comic book you a marvel you a DC You a whatever the inter the third party, you know, maker? I definitely more into the Marvel scene. Avengers MCU. Fell apart. Always been a dead boy fan. Me too. Enjoy the sarcastic and the snarky

breaking the third law. They're very different. The driving involved with that. How old of a character is Deadpool like? Somewhat modern, right? Like he's he imagine he was created in like the 90s or anything, was he? No, I don't have an answer for that.

I mean, like, yeah, his storyline would go back to the creation of Wolverine, which is... Oh, true, yeah, because it was way, well... Well, when he got his adamantium skeleton, Deadpool was apparently on the We weapon X program at that time yeah but that was yeah that was you know I couldn't say it has to be 2000 because like I've been reading Deadpool for over a decade and I like I somebody googling it because yeah like I've got I've got the graphic books right. I didn't buy comic books about the.

The big thick ones and I've had those for years and years. The question was, first appeared in 1990. Nineteen. Yeah. Wow. I don't know that predate even me reading it, but. It would be a different version of Deadpool, I imagine. Yeah, I wonder if you couldn't be that crazy back then. Anyway, so went off the rails there Just I do somewhat the comic books were mentioned a few times didn't know if that was something you were avidly still into or just

more of a something they harkened back on or Probably more of a harkin. Yeah, you see my god Right you mark sensitive than when you want more. Definitely like the nerdy things. Rank the the three Deadpool movies, one, two and three. Oh, jeez. Oh, I think. One, three, two, even though three was more of a. All right, we're just going to spend it for the one liners. Yeah, right. We're just gonna send it for the one-liners yeah we're just

gonna really make it that quality of the film if I can see that had a lot of nostalgia for anyone that like grew up in the 90s and early to the 2000s watching all the other Fox movies you mean that was a Sony right whichever yes only the idea is to close out the Sony Marvel movies. You mean it was a Sony, right? Whichever. Yeah, it's so neat. The idea is to close out the Sony Marvel movies because they're so shit. I watched the most recent. I can't even fire on. I yeah.

Flame on. Flame on. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I can't even pretend I watched the most recent Venom movie. They was bad. It was so bad. Like long to I was like, is this not over yet? Every part, there is nothing about it except for when like the first 30 seconds, when they come back from the Spider-Man universe and Venom yells, I'm sick of this multiverse shit.

That was the best part of the movie and it was the first 30 seconds. The rest of it was Sony needs to just give it up. Stop with the offshoots. You can't have venom anymore. Venom has to go to the Marvel universe to get his proper treatment. You can't have Madame Webb. I didn't get 15 minutes through that movie. That that that one was like still better than some of the other ones, but it was like watching a movie on made for TV.

It was so bad. I honestly, I was like, no, that's it. Like I'm doing it tonight. I'm going to sit. I'm going to light my candle and I'm going to pop my popcorn and I'm watching this movie and I didn't make 15 minutes in. But anyway, that's my Marvel movie rant for tonight. I'm very excited about what's happening next.

I hope Deadpool gets a little more interesting. I think it's time for Wolverine to go to sleep. But that's just me. Do we want to hit him with any games? I don't know where we're at. Oh, what's with our? It's only nine thirty. We had tons of time.

All right. Let me scour some more here. So my friend, the other day from work, she brings me some, uh, she made some homemade breakfast burritos and she brought me some ghost pepper sauce. Yeah. And I'm dipping into it like a psycho. Right. And the one guy that works there who couldn't even handle Taco Bell's fire

sauce starts bragging that he can handle this and we're all babies. So I want to hear what's your spice level because it says here you're into hot sauces. Where's your like comfortable spice level that it's not so hot but you're happy it's hot because mine's ghost pepper. I like messing around with some ghost pepper box sauce depends on how much you want to dabble into it. Much you put on obviously you know but you throw a few drives on it for a slice of pizza and get the typical of just the structure. It's basically the basic flavor.

It is sort of like that. No, it is. But I don't know if I'm saying that right. But I got that. Yeah, I found some ghost epic to that. You know, it's pretty easy to do. But yeah, I don't. I can't eat like ghost pepper for that. You know, it's pretty good music. You know, yeah, I don't. I can't eat like ghost pepper wings,

right, because your face just it's covered in it and now you're just all burning and we have beards. So like you're wearing it for days. But like if I can control the dip and how it yeah, definitely ghost peppers my level for sure. So do you do pair some of your homemade beer with your favorite hot sauce every now and then I Brewed a few beers myself Like

You know, obviously didn't really stick to all that. Okay, so more of a it was a one-and-done or a decide Yeah, I did a few and had a few that just didn't turn out. It's like, oh, this is what the time invested. Yeah, it's like it had to be so that's like, that's just like, all right. I don't know. You have like six hours of your labor invested in this. And then it's like, it tastes like I'm drinking out of a fucking shoe. Yeah, you got the six hours of crap or whatever it is. So the few weeks of waiting for it to form, I'm going to do this.

Well, is it going to be good or OK, crap, dump it all. It seems bad. It's terrible. So I'm good. And then we see you are. So are you still in the hobby of smoking meats and like are you a a big grill guy? Oh, I love love growing. It's a happy place to sit in right there.

They use it in the weather. The tomato pot, get sort of pulled forth on there and sit there for the day. Just babysitting making treats. It's running right in the wings. Well, getting too hot. Will dinner actually be on time at your house, unlike some of our previous guests. Oh, I do my darndest to make that happen. It's kind of like my wife says.

The dinner where the heat cooks the dinner and not the time or something that's one of those things it'll be done when it's done. You know, hopefully it's on time. But you know, here we go. Makes sense. How's the how's how's the front of your house been looking lately? Is there been any random cars parking in front of it on a public public street that just seems to piss you right off? street that just seems to piss you right off? Anytime there's anyone parked in front of me, you know, just gotta do that dog bark at him for hours. The neighbors right next door just moved in and they have a lawn care business.

Randomly we see a trailer parked in front of the fire hydrant and just itching to call the police. That's different. Yeah, they're blocking that that's actually like they could fucking take the whole neighborhood out of some asshole You know, there's actually a fire and they can't get to it. No We'll go through that. I know that's true. And that is like My favorite scene and like movies and shows when they just bust the windows out. Yeah, we're gonna put the hose through your car Like you shouldn't have done that but also I hope that happens to you You will learn this lesson yeah, and you probably actually won't I mean my windshield is a cracking and again, I'm pissed about that No, it's the second time it's happened because I drive on the highway to work and I I heard the rock hit my windshield and I was like

Mental note find that chip put the sticker on it and go get it fixed before it spider webs Took less than 24 hours to spider web. I didn't even find it. I just got in the car today and I was just like F-word there's that giant crack. I knew that was coming I was worried you're driving too close to the golf course or something that was bad, just typical high five or interstate. You know, you know, I don't drive past golf courses anymore. When I went to the old location, I did. And now my biggest concern is deer

and hawks and owls flying in front of me. And of course, trucks kicking rocks back at me, which is always when you're on highways, that's what they do. Do you want to hit them with some FMK or Mount Rushmore? In a minute. So it sees, someone listed one of your favorite achievements was benching 225 finally.

Is that, from your stature, you don't look like someone who can only bench 225. So this, we want to know some of your numbers. So I'm basically doing my own research for Lift Hard, Live Easy so I can see how far ahead Ron's gonna finish than me. I like that we get a guest on and Keith goes, you look weaker than you probably are.

No, it's the other way around. No, I'm saying. Oh, I thought you were saying you don't look like somebody that can bench 225 and I was like, that's kind of mean, Keith. The opposite of that. No, I didn't catch it. Yeah. He is... Literally the first thing I said when he got on was like, you look bigger than you do like in online or in the group chat or something. My bad, my bad. You're good. So yeah, what are your, was 225 an achievement for you or was that something you've in the way way back machine? That must have been a high school. Okay, that's what I'm guessing. Yeah, because I'm thinking you're closer to 300 now. Yeah, I think I haven't, I haven't trained just bench in a while, but I think just touching go, I was 395 after knobs training it specifically, I've been more doing overhead press because I just feel better on my foot or the room or a play football because I'm going upstairs having a team with a heavy object and typically I'll take the bottom side of the stairs and press it overhead so it's flat versus

Typically I'll take the bottom side of the stairs and press it overhead so it's flat versus tearing the whole thing on my chest. That's always a strategy of like, well, if it's like, you know, the short guy should be on the top and the tall guy should be on the bottom kind of thing. So it's just like the least amount. But I actually like that of, even if you are, like I have no clue, how tall are you?

I'm six foot. Okay, so yeah, I guess you're kind of written, well, you're tall for crew. You're not like five foot 11 three quarter inches or anything. Last night check it was right. It right there. Maybe I should retract it. We're using the, we'll, we'll, we'll to bring it here. Scale to bring a, uh, fractions are huge here. We'll bring them back. Big fraction. Take measure to see if you're honest.

a big magnetic tape measure to see if you're honest. Thank you, I had to do that one. You're good, you're good. That's funny. Alright, but yeah, okay. But just doing a little strategy, you know, trying to figure out how far ahead Ron's going to finish with me and David at the Lift Hard Live Easy. Alright, so FMK, let's hit you with that. So three topics here You're gonna rank them for which one you want to F which one you want to marry which one you want to kill pretty simple I kind of like one of the ones submitted. So I'm just gonna run with it. We got the office

Parks and Rec Brooklyn 99 so three pretty good comedies I know which one I'd kill comedies. I know which one I'd kill. No, but it's Ron show. So FMK. I guess I'm gonna have to say Mary the office because that's always a good buy. So if it doesn't matter that episode versus this thing. Home probably seen about nine times through the series. Oh wow. Yes. Just the bench.

This is what's going on. Probably gotten that habit. Okay. I need to wind down for an hour to throw that on in there and put it out before I've got to go to such a, but actually go to sleep. And then probably the parks and rec even though nine nines been in the current favorite that the wife and I are going through and watching I'm really

enjoying you know what the family has to be under parts in her eggs so listen to our partner for a nine-on-one So that's fair. Like I I've watched all of them. I think nine nine is definitely the distant third of that grouping. And I'd probably take Park Shinrake over the office. I would not not probably I would definitely take Park Shinrake over the office. That's just me. See, I would definitely have put Brooklyn and above all of those.

That's funny. Three different three different. Crews, three different answers. We all get along. It's funny. Three different three different crew, three different answers. We all get along. It's it's I don't. I never liked the office because of the suit. I don't get I've said this before on this podcast.

The why are you filming this documentary? It always bothered me, so I can't watch something that does that without asking that question. How are you with what they do in the shadows? I was just going to ask that. And that's the thing is, I love that show. But I still like I stopped watching after three seasons

because I was like, why? I don't understand why in the movie they talk about it. It makes sense in the show. Why are you filming this documentary? And I keep asking myself that, like, what's the end game of this? But what they do and what we do in the shadows that they didn't do in the office or Parks and Rec is the camera crew is involved. You see them, you see the camera crew, you see the director, you see those people. They are actually in danger. They are

Part of the storyline at times Whereas they didn't do that as far as I know in the office or parks and rec the office a little bit towards the end And and breaks the fourth well and talks to one of the character one camera sound guys sound that But they're definitely not really too involved. Like you're saying, well, why are we doing this here? Yeah. And I just couldn't ever since somebody pointed that out, I was just like, Oh, fuck, you ruined that show for the rest of my life.

So Brooklyn Nine-Nine, but also just because Brooklyn Nine-Nine was sillier. Like I felt like it was just pure nonsense at times. And that's my sense of humor. So yeah, you got that Andy Sainberg just, I, yeah. Lonely Island in a TV show. Lonely Island was the first thing I learned how to rap. And crazy from there. So I guess it's my turn from Mount Rushmore.

Yep. And I've never done this one before. I've done ones like it, but I'm going to get very specific with you. And I've never done this one before. I've done ones like it. But I'm going to get very specific with you. Mount Rushmore of Viking metal bands. As far as Viking metal, I only craft a monomark being specific.

Would Death Clock be considered Viking metal, or is that more? Are you asking me? Do you want my answer? Yeah, I'm asking. Yes, I would love your answer. Because about Amano Martha is the only one that comes to mind at the moment. So Death Clock is every metal band ever. Yeah, that's right. And they do it sometimes better than that band. Um, there is the better. So I always say that better Metal Snake from the first Death Clock album is the best Lamb of God song that Lamb of God didn't write.

So I just have this idea that like, technically yes, I would say Death Clock would count if you could name or we could name which song it is which is probably I'm drawing a blank I'll have to find it I can't even like does behemoth count as Viking metal well they know they're black metal a what about Windrose. They're dwarfs. But yeah, technically Viking because it's yeah, Dwarven. Oh, jeez, Matt's gonna kill me for this. Ryan are gonna just rake me across the coals and one of the Davis is gonna Google Viking metal and be like, I know more than you.

If we're going silly goose themed metal, let's just go with that. We've got a monomark for Viking. We got Aylstorm for pirate. You got windrows for dwarf. Uh, I guess, you know, if we're going outside of the norm, let's go electric call boy for, for techno metal. That's kind of a, kind of the out there genre. Just in here for it makes me want to just kind of fall back and forth.

Call boys so much. Even like kids, there's that one song, the videos that I'm on the zombie island, right? Um, the hurricane. And I was playing it in the car and there's one part where like the music stops and he does the joke and I hear from the back my five-year-old yelled joke I'm like the only word he knows in this he's here for it you're ready to go oh they this year they love electric cowboy to be honest with you from what I

I can let them listen to yeah, right? Does your kids know the difference between the bands or is it all of this? Okay metal is this band? Because my kids still they can be listen to slipknot You mean actual slipknot or do you mean you want to listen to metal? They're very song specific right now So my my little girl is in love with the new Lady Gaga song. Okay. And if I put it on, she'll sing the whole thing to you. She's three. She's out here singing abracadabra or whatever like she is up there with it. They like little, the new song, Tchaikovsky, which is a really funny music video because they took the soccer hooligans and instead of being about soccer teams, they're about

their favorite classical musicians. So it's Tchaikovsky versus Mozart. It's a really funny video, but it's also a hard style techno song with Tchaikovsky overlaid. And I've said that before on this podcast, Tchaikovsky is the heaviest heavy metal from back in the day, right? Like he wrote some of the heaviest downbeats and stuff like that when he did his, a lot of his stuff. So that's their stuff right now. I don't think they're too into metal because I have been progressing into more goblin metal. Like I'm getting into deathcore. I put in the discord,

the sugar water song, which is literally just like from, I keep joking, it's a cockroach's perspective and I'm a cockroach, just give me sugar and water all day. Or salt and water at the same time. Like, so they're not too into that, but they do enjoy like some of the heavier, So they're not too into that, but they do enjoy like some of the heavier. Um, they don't ask for it as often as they ask for those dance songs. But I had, I had a role on your video that you posted about the popular song. I've asked the men in black, which just got me, which one, sorry again, the men in black, the sugar water. Yeah. We've never seen sugar do that. Which one? Sorry again? The men in black? Yep. Sugar water. We've never seen sugar do that.

We've never seen a cow do that. Ah yeah. So yeah, unfortunately, no. They're not too into the metal. They like some of the stuff. She finds Slipknot a bit scary because of the masks, but I have several masks in the house that they're not afraid of, so they're kind kind of into that but if the song is too heavy

there they get scared. Keith is bored. I'm good. At least it's not wrestling this time right Keith? Yet. I could listen to wrestling more than black metal probably. I at least have like a four-year window where I consumed wrestling whereas black metal probably. Or Viking metal. Because I at least have like a four year window where I consume wrestling whereas black metal, dark metal, whatever, like I don't know. Like I've heard of like two of those bands you mentioned I think. I think you would like Electric Callboy

to be honest with you. I've heard of them I think. Yeah, I think if you were to get into even the new one, Elevator one elevator operator or what was the big one that they had? The ratchets had with the baby metal. I don't think I would. I don't think I'd introduce Keith to that one.

I would go with the dude. Oh, that's Ramstein. Yeah, I know those guys. Yeah, yeah. Actually, it almost is. If I'm being honest with you. It is the evolution of Rams Hold on Ram Stein Ramstein Ramstein Whatever triggers the Davids

One last thing that stuck out for we probably jump into another game is I'm not sure if this is a question that you know the answer to or if there's a story that goes with it How many times is Rocco cuss and boondocks daint? Oh More than enough so there's a drinking game associated And You drink every time rocker swears you and I that body the brothers say their prayer with finishing trouble sentences You end up pretty pretty on the floor by the end of it. Yeah.

I mean, you keep it up for an hour and a half or an hour and a half. You know, it was a lot longer than trying to pay attention. Oh, you're going to drink again. Are you doing a sip or a shot? Uh, I think one year, I did sips from hard alcohol and that was way too much. So I haven't played since or have I had proper 12. So yeah, when the cat gets shot and is it, is it dead? You believe that just happened? I can't fucking believe that just happened. Is it dead? Hehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehe hehehe he killed him. That was a good end to our relationship. I was just thinking I should rewatch that movie, but if that's I don't even remember that scene. I probably blocked it out I don't know when it fucking see that no, you don't want it. Well, you don't see it Dave and still just the idea

Yeah, yeah Two-minute you can skip it a partial and oh All right Well, I think we're ready for unless there anything else you want to hit on for we hit did unpaid or underrated now We're hitting the hour and a half mark i'm having too much fun so yeah right well ron wrangle this in or we'll go for hours you did such a good job explaining the other game let's uh tell your friends and family how we play unpaid or underrated no obviously unpaid or underrated was the superior of the games that could be played with a similar idea. Unpaid meaning that it sucks to be unpaid.

Underrated, it's good more people should be aware of it and know about it than others. Mad Fientist I dig it. That's a perfect explanation in my book. So, I'm going to hit you with three or so here. Oh, save a couple good ones for Joey. So, I'm going to hit you with So save a couple good ones for Joey. So I'm going to hit you with push connects, electrical push connects, like a like a like a way go or something. Oh, the way goes are well, that's a brand I understand. But some people.

Yeah. Yeah. I feel like people have strong opinions about things and especially if I had a least fun part of being an electrician, those people have a lot of opinions about how things should be. And just like opinions and assholes there, but no one wants to hear about it. Um, way goes when there's upsides downsides, I haven't seen many on my jobs, I can see the benefits of not undoing the wire nut to test voltage or try to shove a frog up into a wire

nut or a tiny spiff port. I can show a probe into the check voltage. I'm going to have to not ride two horses with one ass and choose one. I'm going to say underrated in this area. ass and choose one. I'm going to say underrated in this area. I haven't played with them much. Yeah, I do light electrical at my job. So we do like this, like this, doing a 400 unit complex and replacing a kitchen fixture in every single one of them. Well, we're basically just retrofitting the four footer to an LED. So just direct drive. So literally just take the tombstone wires on one side and connect it to the neutral and the tombstone wires on the other side Take it to the you know, the positive and good to go

So yeah We only use push connects pretty much unless there's five wires and then I'll use a wire nut But if it's four wires are under it's just Literally takes me like three seconds versus and I'm we're doing hot like I'm doing like 30 fixtures a day So if I need to twist, I mean, I'm sure it's nothing to you But like I might my elbow and forearm and wrist don't want to twist 60 wire nuts a day like when I do just when I can Just do pushes. It's brutal. Yeah, luckily I have a little Bit that I can the impact and

Test it make sure it's all good. Of course nice That saves the carpool tunnel or early on set. We're gonna mortise. All right. This is how you feel when you talk about wrestling. It's good stuff. All right. Unpaid or underrated.

If this one fails, I'll just move on another one. The movie Captain Ron. I probably should have watched that given that so no was kept that one on this one might fall short to the early two thousand movies when fan one that uh... what's going to do you know it why did i ask you that uh...

i suppose when i was four years varsity well for years i think more of the team of the very the overrated just because it was more of a three-dean film. You mean unpaid? Oh, sorry, unpaid. You're right. Sorry. Yeah. Who's this? No, we're not big Mastomac's over here. We played a game, right?

All right. It's a good answer. I'm going to count that as just two because Captain Ron didn't count. So my last one. So this is something your wife told us. This is what she calls it. So explain to people what this is, I guess if you if you remember so breaking the Geneva Convention. Is something that she says that breaking the Geneva Convention is she says that's when you rip one under the sheets and then when she gets in the bed, it hits her in the face kind of sorta.

Under the sheets and when she gets in the bed it hits her in the face can disorder. What you know you can always control when you're partying and sleeping and like a previous event i wake up early. What is the time for a box of the bed around nine at latest i try. Significant earlier so that's plenty of time for me to do any way to be fortune covers and that's like nauseous cloud Yeah, okay, look a warfare. There's the joke there. I just I just love how she put it under But I can always blame for cooking right there you go, I'm sure that goes well sure that goes well. Usually wake up to, oh, what the fuck? Yeah, it's not my fault.

It's yours. I'm sure that goes well every time. Every time. Yeah. Uh, unpaid or underrated. Hugh Jackman. Is a cat, does a cat kiddie? You think that we're doing that things you want out like. Let's a cat. There's a cat. Kitty. Same cat. He's just doing cat things. You want an owl bite? Let's do something. He doesn't.

Huge Jackman. I feel like he was the hot potato back in the day. Um, and less so now, especially with trying to do the money grab with the... Oh no, he froze. Like right at the end. Oh, he's back. I can only have him, but he's got a wide range. Oh, no, it's okay. You're back now. Yep. Kind of.

Okay. So the cat took the wifi. Given his range. Yeah, sure. The cat fight. All right. We're doing better now. Yeah.

Uh, I'm going to say underrated, uh, just with his range of windows and then I won't assume like that. And was he classically trained for their singing and dancing and other things that he's done? Okay. I mean, he'll, he'll always underrated. He'll always be Wolverine to us. Like our generation. In our heart.

It doesn't matter who else plays him. He's always going to be Wolverine to us. And he'll keep making appearances. They'll do an old man Logan at some point, right? Like you've read that, right? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

So like he's always going to Wolverine in some sort. So I agree. Unpaid or underrated Metallica. I'm going to say I'm I just can't get behind them. It all sounds the same. I don't get it. Yeah, I read in Christie's book, the history of metal. And it was essentially a jackoff session to Metallica. So like the first maybe two chapters talked about the new wave of British metal, about how like essentially it started over there. Like it went from punk to metal with, and then metal started in Britain.

And then it was just like, and then Metallica made it the best. And then the rest of the book was about Metallica. And as much as I love aspects of Metallica because I grew up with them, you know, like today, Sad But True came on and I was like, this song is about his alcoholism and he doesn't even remember writing it. Like, that's a dope thing that like you, you know, they did. But yeah. I'm not. I like Metallica. If it comes on, I'm excited, but I rarely seek out Metallica.

So I will agree with you on that one. I'll turn the radio straight off. It's that bad? I'm done. I don't know. Okay. Something else. What about Motorhead?

Motorhead's fine. Yeah. That doesn't come up. Yeah, somebody fan me. Swim fanning unpaid or underrated. And you owe us a story. We're duck duck goose. So the history of this house, Spanish or you guys,

let me see if I can't send you the picture. I want to see it. Send it to Keith. Yeah, no, send it to him. They can. Yeah, I said, I did. Yeah, fuck her. She should.

You should send her a picture like that. All right. Yeah, it's going her a picture like that. All right, yeah, it's gonna give people the story. All right, so senior year of high school, you know, a good time to play back there. So I thought it would be an easy A, you like to take a yoga class. It must have been near spring break. Or sometime just right before.

Teacher was like, oh, okay, we'll just go in that room, do some stretching, blah, blah, blah. Okay, we're gonna play doctor abuse. Okay, cool. So I get picked as a tiger and run around and ducked up that fuse tactic guy, run around the circle, go for a dive and land to get in the spot. I won. I got there.

I was like, Oh, Oh, my toe feels fun. I was my new. Later, I got to my foot up on my other knee and realized my toe is dangling. Oh, I can't listen. Bones exposed, you know, which is kind of there. Technically was a dislocation, but there I am laying bone exposed. Hey, Ranny, I think I need to go to the hospital. And then everybody scrams leaves and I'm just laying there like, oh shit, I'm definitely in shock because I don't feel any pain and left alone. These are not good things to do.

From what my first aid training tells me. But she, teacher runs off, grabs two bigger coach history teachers, of course. Carries me down the stairs and takes me off to the hospital. And yeah, technically it was a dislocation. And two, three weeks later I was able to walk again. It took me a year to be able to bend my big toe. But yeah, that's a common thing. And the reason why kids have to wear socks in the mat room

and love it in high school. Well, what's very important is that you can wiggle your big toe again for all of the evolutionary advantages that offers us Well, I mean you got to pick things up off the ground Pick up socks. I don't want to pick up. Yep Gotta be a reason both. Oh likes him so much. Oh, here we go. Well, I think you cast I think you passed unpaid and underrated. I Had to like turn my headphones off there for a second.

I was worried I was going to go a lot grosser. Still pretty gross. Wait till you get the pictures. It's on its way. Don't fucking say I'm not. Long. It's OK. Unpaid and rated IG. Yeah, Keith here, by the way, just send it to me.

Oh, yeah, Keith here, by the way, is never getting old, by the way. It's it's apparently some politician said, Oh, Jeff, some like some politician was in Canada and they were like, oh, so and so here, by the way. And Morgan was like, haha. Yes, that is from us. He stole that from us. The fact that Jeff screenshotted it and actually posted it. Yeah, he's like, oh, this whole thing? Yeah, that was good.

Speaking of this whole thing, they probably didn't talk about it when I had bad Wi-Fi, but Tanner eluded to possibly doing so, because his bench video today, it was like he said like 15 weeks out or 18 weeks out or something whatever is I'm sure I'm sure Big Math will tell you that's when the meat is so curious if that's his way of you know secretly being like yeah I'm gonna do a bench only or something so

in case something comes up yeah something comes up yeah you know David just posted there was a couple open spots so hopefully crew jump on that for the lift hard this summer. All right, I think this is now the portion of the podcast we handed to you. Do you have anything that you want to ask bother or poke us with? Just not just just not your dislocated toe. Oh, we are.

That's all. So we got the sister podcast whichever way you want to run something between David underrated got the cousin podcast okay podcast and husband and his podcasts what about where does he land on our kind of family tree like you guys said said cousin at one point. I bet that's what we brought up I think that's where like does he know that though? Like I'm sure he would know he knows I have a podcast Yeah, I don't think he knows Okay, I'm just a home gym nerd that makes memes to him. Yeah fucking nerd Word is the conspiracy Randy podcasting in this family tree nerd that makes memes to him. Yeah. Fucking nerd. I believe the best of us.

Where does the conspiracy Randy podcasting in this family? True. Is that just a weird drunk uncle or where we at? Don't don't go in it. Yeah, I'm going to let, I'm going to let Keith there to that one. I actually don't. I've never, I think I've tried to listen to it like once and it didn't, it wasn't my cup of tea. Oh, it just doesn't. I think Tyler, him just literally go into the garage and smoke a bunch of

weed and then just shoot the shit. Like, I don't, I don't know. I'm good. No, thanks. Okay. So it's the black sheep of the family. Black sheep. Obviously.

Yeah. I thought we were present, but we already talked about the weird. Um, I guess this could go for either one of you. FMK on pull-ups, push-ups and dips, the famous classic bodyweight exercises. I'd say I'd marry a push-up because I can do those pretty easy. I used to be able to do pull-ups when I was about 50 pounds lighter. I haven't done a pull-up in a long time. I'd have uh, oh man, I used to be able to do pull ups when I was about 50 pounds lighter. I haven't done a pull up in a long time. So, and I, I, I, I'd have to use bands, but then we'd have to debate on if I had one foot

in the band, if it was easier or harder than two feet. So I guess we'll kill it just to avoid that conversation. And I could still do a dip if I, I don't know, I don't fucking, I don't know if I could do a dip. So maybe, but, uh, I guess I'll, I'll fuck a dip. I'll, I'll marry push-ups and killed Pull-ups just to not have that band debate

The weird thing is I don't do any of them Except when I get a chance and then I love doing them and it's really one of those like a pull-up bar Well, I'm gonna fuck around on that same with like oh a dip bar Oh, I'm gonna fuck around on that for Same with like, oh, a dip bar. Oh, I'm gonna fuck around on that for a few minutes just to see how many I can do. But I don't have any of those set up at any point in the gym. I don't have a way to do any of them. So I would probably marry pull-ups

because I love my lats. Fuck dips because I like a good tricep exercise and I guess that would be kill push-ups because like who cares? Like honestly it's like how many push-ups can you do? As many as I want I don't want do? It's as many as I want. I don't want to. Like zero is as many as I want. They yeah, they're just uncomfortable. They're annoying. Sometimes like if I'm in the I'm at work and I'm just feeling like I need to was was free

like blood up like I just need to like get my heart rate going. I'll do a couple but like just because it's all I can do there. So blood up is the fair enough or heard that and that I don't know it's but like my brain was like that's not the word Joe you know do it anyway say it anyway yeah like get a quick pump right yeah blood yeah yeah you mentioned previous episode that you're going to go about chili having beans. So what's for the chili you have when you're talking about chili hot dogs? Oh, hot dog chili.

Yeah, those two different things. Like a bowl of chili that you're going to just eat as a meal, 100% has to have beans. Chili that's going to go on a hot dog is essentially quote unquote meat sauce if you will. That's what a lot of people in New York call it meat sauce but it's kind of weird to me. It's just, I don't know, it's like tomato paste and like ground beef and probably tomatoes even. It sounds like a meat salsa. But that's chili. I don't know. Go to West Virginia or anywhere in the... It's such a regional thing too. Like, I don't know, like you grew up with something like that is your life and then when you move away,

it's still like all your memories of this is what that food is and 20 years of new memories doesn't erase that, so I don't know. Well, I was just curious about the Keith thing or if that was at least- No, no, no, that is like, ask, I mean, ask Tyler Thompson, he grew up in West Virginia or thereabouts, so, or Travis and Stu, like they're Stuart. He grew up in West Virginia or thereabouts so or

Travis and Stu like they're Stuart like they're always Virginia boys, and I'm gonna agree with Keith I think on a chili dog. You don't need beans Yeah, that'd be weird. I don't know. I mean I would not hold on I guess beans and Frank's are definitely a great meal If you need like heavy proteins above the Frank Yes, what it is, isn't it? Yeah, but I mean, I'm just saying sometimes I'll just if I'm feeling particularly like I need bachelor chow, I will just cook up some some some beans and throw in some hot dogs or sausages.

Like that's just been Frank's to me. And you're just eating it like it's a chili. But I don't think I would put beans or chili con carne on a hot dog. I don't think I would do that. Hmm. Good question. I guess I've only ever seen it with beans necessarily. I've, I think it is so regional. Like that. I think I was in Ohio, uh, you know Ohio, you know, the great state of Ohio having

And I ordered a hot dog and as like a fucking like in seven or eight year old and I remember being like what the fuck Is this why is there beans in the chili? Like being just so confused and then like not not knowing as a child that like food is regional I'm probably not even realizing right now that like I even had that memory until this was brought up, but I do remember, yeah, that was definitely a thing. Unpaid and underrated, bring it up, trauma. That's what we do. I, it's almost once an episode I get to say that now.

Well, that's how you know you're doing the real game forives, huh? Yeah. I try. What about kid cartoons that you're watching with the young that you also... Bluey. Absolutely. Big Bluey.

Oh, big Bluey. Yeah. Go ahead. Oh, I missed that. That mistake. My kid's 11 now. So he... I still think I would. I still think you would get a kick out of Bluey. Go ahead. Oh, I missed that. The stage.

My kids are loving it. No, I still think I would. I still think you would get a kick out of Bluey because it's, it's like it's made for kids, but everything is directed to parents. Everything in that show is directed towards like, here is your kid's point of view that you should be looking at. So while like the kids are the focus, the parents as a parent, you're watching it going, I should be more cognizant of my children doing that.

And it's almost mind blowing. And again, like there is a running gag, but like I've cried twice watching that show. Just like, there's like this one episode, it's when the youngest kid finally gets comfortable sleeping on her own. And they do this like dream sequence, and the parents are like kind of there and not there and all that. But the whole time you're watching it and you're like, I miss my kids wanting to be next to me. As much as I know they have to grow and be independent. I miss this. And it's that like while the kids are dealing with it you're dealing with

it right and it yeah it that episode and there's one called the creek is beautiful where bandit which is the dad takes the kids to his where he used to play as a kid and at first the kids are just like this is the stupidest thing ever blah blah blah but then they learned to love it. And you can just watch the dad, like be so happy that he gets to share his childhood memories with the kids. And like as a dad, my kids are in my childhood house and I'm showing them, this is the backyard I grew up in.

This is the basement I grew up in. This is the field in the back that I used to go play in. And at first, they're just like, this is stupid. But then they're like, oh, look at this tree. Look at this. And you're like, it does hit you hard. So Bluey is easily that one. But it's such a stereotypical answer. Yeah.

Hey, man. I'll accept it. It's an honest answer and heartfelt. If I could get my kids into samurai Jack, I would, but it's a bit too violent. It's a bit much. And I watched the first two episodes

with my kid and Samurai Jack. All right. I promise you got to get through the first episode and it gets really exciting and awesome. It does not. There's there's entire episodes with no dialogue. And I remember watching it one day and my mom walked in and she's like, what the hell are you watching? And I was like, I don't know how to explain this to you. We're in too deep. It's fine.

Yeah. And the guy that voices Aku was also one of the voices in the original airbender series. Oh Was it? Yeah, he was uncle God damn it. My wife would know it's a weird name. Yeah But it's it's funny cuz every time and I can hear his voice and everything he's ever been in Because of Aku right because of the samurai and you're just like I know that guy I know who that is and it's the uncle and you're just like, I know that guy, I know who that is and it's the uncle and it's this and it's that, it's that. So yeah, definitely

why I would put that up there if I could, but I feel like my son would go crazy watching that. Well, if you're interested in Sonai educational and cameos is from famous Apple Jack Black random sorts of story box on Netflix. Yes, we have been watching. Great show too. Yes. It's one of those my wife, my wife, I'm very good at recognizing voices. It's a weird, like not a great talent that nobody would pay me for, but I'm very good

at it. And I remember watching Star Wars. I was going, what the fuck is that? Is that like, let's use Jack Black, but I actually think it was one of the, one of the ladies got, she used to host a show and I was like, I know who that is. And I had to Google it. And then I was like, Oh my God, all the people in this show are like huge celebrities and Morgan's like, she's like, yeah, I don't know how they did that.

This is huge. Like, do you know who any of these people are? She's like, no, I don't recognize any of them. And my kids don't know either. But yeah, storybots. Yeah, it definitely is one of them. My kids really love Mr. Rogers as a kid because I did. I have this motto that if Mr. Rogers wouldn't like you, you're probably not a good

person. We don't get political here, but at the same time, yeah, like Mr. Rogers was like the top tier human of the like of our time. And I really tried to get them into that. They were into it and they still sometimes ask for it, but we canceled prime. So you can't watch it be the neighbor that Mr. Rogers always wanted you to be. Which one? Be the neighbor that Mr. Rogers always wanted. Yeah, that one. Yeah. Actually, sometimes I say that to people feel Mr. Rogers would hate you.

And I hope I hope it lands. I'm sure if they're under 35, it probably doesn't. Yeah. Was that it for us? Well, wonderful. Yeah, I didn't come up with too big of a list. I was very those are fantastic. We loved it. Yeah, absolutely. All right. Well, Keith, want to hit us with our affiliate codes code. I'm paid with this freaking

It's very funny. I just don't remember it coming. Oh, I think it was because we all technically could get to each other's house from the Great Lakes.

Oh yeah, that is true. I think that was the whole origin of it on one of the Nate episodes or one of the episodes we had Nate on, I believe believe yeah, like you're I feel like if I stood on a tall enough tree I could piss on your house Like you're pretty close I was working in it I was working in an 18 story building this week and I didn't happen to think of it when I was on the right side Face in my house, but I was like I was like a two miles from my house I did want to be like can I see my house from here?

Like, is there a that's not the movie that I don't understand?

Oh, no, because that's a what that's true. Yeah. Where is your captain Ron origin story because I don't get it I was captain of the swim team Oh, okay years. Yeah, you did and then wife calls me the Captain America. I don't know how that came about Cuz you're jacked and handsome so captain Ron's not like If you want to point that out.

Go follow us on the YouTube and I'm Keith, honeycut73 on Instagram and you go follow my orange jam then a wine seller. We'll see you next Tuesday. I'm not going to stop recording right now. Yeah, no, I like that idea. I am and you go follow my orange jam that a wine cellar. We'll see you next Tuesday I'm not gonna stop recording right now

Yeah, no, I like that idea just in case we also get more gold for an outro intro. That would be good I have never really explained this the Dilf dungeon was a joke I came up with and she made a series of like a Barbie logo and Dungeons and Dragons logo and one based on a Canadian TV show called Body Break. But for my banner she created something completely new and what she did was she took hands that are like this and she put calluses on them because I liked the deadlift so much and she's like, Oh, this is like, it'll be fun. Cause it's like my style of how I draw

hands on your thing, but it looks like a tool album. I'm a huge tool fan have been for decades and I opened it and I was like, this looks like the cover of that hidden album, Salvo. I don't know if you are a tool fan. So if you know about Salvo, cause that was the front of their thing was the hands like this. And I was like, but you did it in a way that's like, again, deadlifter. And I was like, this is so incredible. And she was like, I'm going to pretend that was on purpose. Yeah. But she's like, ultimately that was on purpose. Yeah. She's like, ultimately that was not my intention. So, um, you know, she also created our crew logo, right? With the NWO thing with the lift, hard, live easy under it.

So we're, we're, we're pretty PG 13. I think, no, you said cunt. I know other than that. You didn't just say it. Like you like you we said don't swear so much and you were like ah cunt. I was not there for the swearing part. My computer took a shit. No nobody said not to swear.

You just hasn't started. I'm surprised myself because I'm wanting construction to swear like a sailor. Yep. I'm surprised it didn't just come more naturally until Keith came in. Well, I called myself a cunt because it was supposed to be the boys reference because I was, I butchered butcher and he's the main character on the boys. And he's, he says cunt all the time. So that's the only reason I said that. that's the only reason I said cunt.

Because you said the word butcher, you said cunt and you think we're going to get that? Well, no, I didn't either. It made sense in my head. It wasn't necessarily intended to be. That's how my I can appreciate that. I make these obscure leaps and say, hey, that's us. That's funny. No, if I watched that, I would have been rolling.

That's a great reference. And I can appreciate it. I shoot a lot of shots. I've shoot a lot of shots of pointing things and random jokes that don't land and then off time zone led with the big Keith moment of, Oh, fuck you guys. Eat my ass. And then just, okay, fuck you. I'm funny. There is a certain amount of super troopers jokes. I will make per day And they never land and that's that's travesty Help I'm sure he'll say all that shitty bit rate. I need better quality blah blah blah I hope you heard that

You'd be surprised how often Nate says blur, blur, blur to be honest. He definitely complains about the quality of every picture I've ever sent him in the entire fucking tenure of our relationship. Big Nate here by the way. Blur, blur, blur.
