Starting point is 00:01:21 What's going on? Have a good Friday morning. I want to have time after the show for plenty of bumper pool. The crew was just mad at me. Like, go do your show so we can play. Wow. Savage. So I need a little more time between the two shows.
Starting point is 00:01:37 But I also need time for breakfast on a Friday. I agree. Friday's got to be different than the other work days. Do we all agree? You're not off. You're not mailing it in. It's not a Saturday. But it shouldn't feel like a Wednesday.
Starting point is 00:01:54 Is that fair? Yeah, I get myself a breakfast sandwich every Friday morning. That's it. That's the difference for me. Yeah, a little treat. Quit looking over the top of your glasses, Patrick, like every day's a Monday to you. I know that's what you want to say. Even Saturdays are Mondays.
Starting point is 00:02:11 I need to start digging. What do you do differently on a Friday, Will? Breakfast. You go somewhere or you like make it? Thursday. No, go somewhere. Okay. I have coffee.
Starting point is 00:02:25 I guess what, fellas, I'm a Starbucks guy now. I have coffee. What? Monday through Thursday at a Starbucks. Yeah. To New York and you's coming out. Chat with my friend. Yep, I have never been a Starbucks guy.
Starting point is 00:02:39 Now I know my drink. I know what I want to do when I've, vary it up. Do you wear a tote bag when you go in there? Yeah. You get a frappuccino? You want to know what I get? We're ugs. Nitro with vanilla foam protein, vanilla protein foam. You know. You know what the night, you know what nitro is? Yeah. This is one that pour out of a tap. Yeah. It's cold brew. Yeah, but it's not cold because I don't want it on ice. So I'm in this stage where the hot coffee, I like hot coffee, but a Starbucks hot coffee is a lot.
Starting point is 00:03:15 Like, it's so hot and it nurses for too long. And cold, it's January. I don't want to, I don't want ice coffee. No, no, I'm not saying cold. Basically room temperature. I'm saying cold brew. Cold brew is the way you brew it. So like there's like, there's like, there are different ways to brew coffee.
Starting point is 00:03:32 Sorry, Mr. Coffee. I don't even drink coffee. I may drink some decaps sometimes. But like, like Stoke is a very popular cold brew brand. It's just like the way you kind of let the beans sit in the coal, like a refrigerator or something. Why the change to Starbucks will? Sounds like you're more Starbucks than me. Why what?
Starting point is 00:03:52 Logo. Why did you change the Starbucks? Convenience. Convenience. And I will tell you now. Makes a big difference. What? Convenience?
Starting point is 00:04:04 Yeah. Yeah, it's right there. It's next to the gym. Go to the gym, walk out of the gym, go sit in Starbucks. Starbucks is on the rehabilitation program. Starbucks has got a new CEO, and it's a totally different experience, and he is doing good things. I don't know, because, you know, in our business, we get our emails, and I don't know how much the woke stuff, but I have a feeling it's on its way out. I really do.
Starting point is 00:04:32 There was a story this week where somebody had drawn a pig on a Starbucks cup for an ice officer. You'll see that? Yeah. And that employee was fired. I feel like those stories, which used to be fairly common, are going to be fading into the background for Starbucks. Because they're prioritizing. They're changing the menu up. It's different.
Starting point is 00:04:55 But customer service, man, it's really good. Starbucks had gotten full on into, you know, purple hair and sleeves and your coffee served with the side of animus. Yeah, but it's not that. Now it's like, hey, welcome in, and everybody's talking to you and everybody makes eye contact. That's probably a turnoff for you, Patrick. And... It's like, I'm out of here. They check in with you.
Starting point is 00:05:23 You know, it's nice. It's a good experience. Are we rolling? Because the whole, like, blue hair thing seemed... They were trying to make it seem like it's this, like, you know, mom and pop coffee shop, but a corporate one? Does it feel too corporate now? We're always rolling. No, I think they're moving more towards cheers.
Starting point is 00:05:43 Now, this is my local Starbucks, but it's, you walk in a little bit, so they scream your name in? Will! It's close. It's close. How's things? Here's your nitro, girly, vanilla protein crap. Is that girly?
Starting point is 00:06:03 Is it nitro? Vanilla. Anything is girly. I think pumpkin spices is girly. Flavored anything with coffee in the morning is not very manly, I would say. My two favorite artificial flavors are vanilla and banana. Third is blue. Surprising.
Starting point is 00:06:27 So, you know, like, you know, if you get a snow cone, I don't even need to put a flavor to it, just blue. So, you know, when you get a snow cone or a monster energy drink, you do not. No, I knew you, I saw you nodding exactly. Yes. Like when you're a kid, I didn't want the red snow cone. I don't, meaning no cherry, no strawberry. What's the blue bottle? And the blue bottle could have been blue raspberry.
Starting point is 00:06:52 It could have been coconut, but sometimes coconut is clear. It's white. What else comes in blue? But whatever blue was, that's where I was headed on, on as a kid. And to this day, like, the blue Gatorade is calling my name a little bit, much more than the red or orange. orange Gatorade. And I don't, that's obviously not a flavor. But when you're talking about like added flavors for me, it's vanilla, banana, and
Starting point is 00:07:18 blue. It is a flavor. It's very much a flavor. Like when you drink Gatorade. It's like, I'm getting red. Like you don't. Well, yellow's lemon lime, but it doesn't taste like lemon lime. The problem with that one is like, we, we usually drink that like when you have a stomach
Starting point is 00:07:35 bug. What's your, like, I've equated it with like illness. What's your guys like guilty pleasure? I never called a yellow, Dan. Really? That was green. Lemon line was green. What?
Starting point is 00:07:44 Yeah. It's yellow. What's your guys like guilty pleasure drink? To me, it's more green than yellow. Guilty pleasure drink. Oh, I know this, like, well. Like alcohol-related? It's Diet Dr. Pepper.
Starting point is 00:08:01 No, no alcohol. Let's set that aside. Diet Dr. Pepper. And you're like, your guilty pleasure is diet Dr. Dr. Pepper? Well, I only drink Dr. Pepper is like the super guilty pleasure. Like I love Dr. Pepper, but I can tell myself that Diet Dr. Pepper is a more frequent treat. So that could appear twice a week.
Starting point is 00:08:21 Do you know what I mean? I see. So that's it, Diet Dr. Pepper. Patrick? I don't drink a lot of caffeine, so like, you know, it's like a nice fountain cherry Coke. Or like a chocolate milk? Well, I make adult chocolate milks with Kaluah, but we're not talking about alcohol or beverages. So that's what I was kind of talking about.
Starting point is 00:08:42 Like a girly fruit fruit. And that's a white Russian? That's a white Russian, right? I thought it was black Russian because I didn't have vodka. Well, white Russian is vodka, milk, and Kalua. So you're just doing the Kalua in the milk alone? No vodka? Yeah, just Kalua and milk, yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:02 Oh. Is this content? Are we on air? Are we rolling right now, Dan? We are. We've been. We've done Ben rolling. Since you rolled in.
Starting point is 00:09:11 Talking about how you want to get this over with so you can play pool. Okay What's your guilty pleasure, Dan? Mine would actually be hot chocolate. I just like having a hot chocolate every once in a while. Even in the summer. I don't know why. It's just good.
Starting point is 00:09:28 Not all the time. Little marshmallows. I'm glad you reminded me of a white Russian. I haven't had one of those in a while. That's a good word drink. I'm getting a... Give me a Caucasian. All right.
Starting point is 00:09:40 All right. This is a Friday edition, laid back episode of Will Kane Country. And as is the course, we're going to roll in cold or hot, talk about whatever we're talking about. But the boys, Two A Days Dan and Tenfoil Pat, are going to guide me through the news. And we're going to debut a new little format. We'll call you, the Willisha, guide me through some questions. The floor is yours, Willisha. But first, the most electric man in broadcasting, Tinfoil Pat. Thank you, Will. So we don't quite have,
Starting point is 00:10:14 too many Willisha responses yet, but you can send those in. Will Kane Show at Fox.com. If you want Will's advice going forward, don't send anything else. I don't want your memes from Facebook or anything like that. Just questions for advice. Will Kane Show at Fox.com. So anyway, we pulled some from Reddit, the advice Reddit, and we got some pretty good ones. So here's one about a woman who found out her boyfriend was into flat earth.
Starting point is 00:10:53 So we're going to put that up on the screen in a second. She said, just realized my boyfriend I've been dating for two years might be a flat earther. I don't even know how to start this. I'm pretty shocked at the conversation I just had. My boyfriend has been sending me real showing a theory where the earth is encapsulated in an ice wall and is a tiny part of a greater earth than land that we don't have access to. He also informed me that the earth does not rotate and the sun is actually revolving around us. I've known him for two years and he sometimes has brought up conspiracies but not anything like this.
Starting point is 00:11:24 I have a science degree and tried to explain to him gravitational poles, but he said that's what they want us to believe. I feel like I'm being punked. How have I gone this long without knowing this crazy belief he has? This has to be a deal breaker, right? What say you, Will? I can't believe either. I don't believe this, mostly. I don't believe this is a real, sincere problem that somebody is posting about.
Starting point is 00:11:59 Because I don't think you can go two years with that type of conspiracy-mindedness in the closet. Yeah, I agree. Somebody who believes that the world is flat and the waters are being held in by an ice wall. But yet on the other side of the wall is like in Game of Thrones, the Wildling. in a world that we have not yet fully explored. Exactly. And potential white walkers. That kind of crazy doesn't keep itself in a sealed container.
Starting point is 00:12:32 It's not hermetically sealed onto one issue. So there's no way if he truly believes all that. He could just, a couple of options. This is fake. It's not real. Number two, he is punking her. He is having fun. He is provoking her.
Starting point is 00:12:48 he believes this kind of stuff actually like 15, 20%, but he's playing it to 100 just to provoke her. Come on, you know that. I could see you doing that. Or number three, it's a deal breaker. If it's sincere and against all odds he kept this basically undetectable for two years, then it's a deal breaker. Because that kind of thinking does not keep itself hermetically sealed onto one issue for a lifetime. And he will be talking about other things as you're together. And I don't know what those other things may be.
Starting point is 00:13:25 But the world is his oyster. I mean, as long as he thinks we're being held in by ice walls and only the brave venture beyond the wall, he could really go anywhere. He's a hell of a long, a fun ride. Like, you don't know where he's going to take you. You can go beyond the ice wall, Will. That's the friend you see once in a while, by the way. The governments won't let you near Antarctica to go beyond the ice wall. Right.
Starting point is 00:13:54 They'll stop. What about like the... Which government, though? What about like the Arctic explorers? Like, I forget who's South Pole and who's North Pole, but endurance, what's his name? And endurance. What about, you know, they went to the South Pole. Elon Musk would know, right?
Starting point is 00:14:10 And I feel like he would be involved. Edmondson, is Edmondson North Pole? I think that was South Pole. Poll, too, allegedly. Do you guys... Allegedly, he said. Do you guys have friends that are like... Shackleford.
Starting point is 00:14:24 Do you guys have friends that are like this, or you found out you had a friend that actually believed something insane? Because I have... I am that friend. I know you are, but... I have a couple of friends for sure that believe we did not go to the moon. Really? But that's the thing.
Starting point is 00:14:43 How old are they? They let me know that in the first couple of months. they might have let me know that in the first three times we hung out. Really? That's my point. They don't keep that under their hat. That's not two years in the hiding. My wife did not know what she was going to be into.
Starting point is 00:14:58 Three years into it. You lied? You held it. I didn't lie. I just, you know, kept it kind of, I just didn't know. I mean, I was a little younger then, but, you know, it kind of was one of those things where it's just like you kind of start to realize things. And she's like, I did not know I signed up for this.
Starting point is 00:15:17 Like this question in the Reddit, that's a big red flag because not just because they believe the earth is flat, but that you couldn't know something like that for that long. And then you find out something and you just think of that person so differently after that. So it just changes your whole perception of them. Patrick, what does your wife think of you? If you sprung a lot of this on her and she didn't know what she was getting into, what does she do when you start going on and on about whatever? She's been coming around. So, I mean, like, it's been 20 years now. You mean brainwashing?
Starting point is 00:15:49 You just, it's just a slow, you slowly chip away like water on rock. And then you have a canyon. She's like, okay, fine, Patrick. Let's take a quick break, but continue this. Episode of Will Call on Will King Country. We'll have demanded to client RBC, what it's to accumulate three-foyle-per-Gerned-C-Tire when they scan their card recompense Triangle

Starting point is 00:16:47 Welcome back to Will Cain Country. We're still hanging out with you, the Willisha, and Willcault, advice, and questions from the audience. The schizophrenic nature of this conversation is going to be that I'm going to talk about, and you guys are going to talk about what we want to talk about, when we want to talk about it. And Dan just sent this to us just moments ago.
Starting point is 00:17:04 And this really fires me up. I get really upset. I see these memes all the time, which era wins? and it classifies NBA players into Gen Z, Millennials, Gen X, Baby Boomers, and Silent Generation. Okay, and it gives you the starting lineup for each. So, for example, right now, presumably we're in Gen Z. The starting lineup is Wembe, Anthony Edwards, Luca, Shea Gildes Alexander, and Jason Tatum.
Starting point is 00:17:30 And then millennials, that's Curry, LeBron, Kevin Durant, Yokic, Hardin. All right, and then it goes all the way back to the Silent Generation and Baby Boomers, where you'd find Michael Jordan and Hakeem Lajuan and Magic and Barkley and Bird. But the one that always makes me mad, and it literally does make me mad, is Gen X. Here's their starting lineup, and I see this all the time, and I see it in rankings, like top 20 NBA players of all time. Look at Patrick giggling. Gen X.
Starting point is 00:17:56 Kobe, Tim Duncan, Shaq, Alan Iverson, and KG, Kevin Garnett. I get so mad. Dirk. Dirk. Dirk, Dirk! An entire, he changed the game of basketball. I've seen all the smoke podcast having guests talk about this. What is the greatest NBA finals run of all time?
Starting point is 00:18:22 And these are NBA players answering it. And I think it was, who is it saying it? Al Harrington, maybe, that it's Dirk. In 2011, he went through, and I can't remember it all, but it was Kobe and the defendant, champion Lakers. I think it was Steve Nash, Sean Marion, Amari Stottemeyer's sons. Was it the Spurs as well that he went through with Duncan? And then he beats LeBron, D. Wade, and Chris Bosch in the finals.
Starting point is 00:18:55 To take down those franchises in the middle of their runs is the greatest run of all time. Also, he reinvented the game of basketball by putting the seven-footer beyond the arc. And I can be specific. Who are you replacing with Dirk? I'm replacing Garnett. I'm not saying Garnett's not great. He's great. Dirk is better.
Starting point is 00:19:16 Did Garnett play better defense? Absolutely. Was Dirk's offense that much better to compensate for the lack in defense? The answer is yes. And every time they met in the playoffs, Dirk won. The Mavericks and Wolves met in the playoffs almost every year during that run. First round. and Dirk won every time.
Starting point is 00:19:38 Garnett got his championship when he went to the Celtics and joined a super team with Pierce and Ray Allen. Dirk did it with Jason Terry and an old Jason kid. It is Dirk over Kevin Garnett, and it makes me mad. I was asking, Dan, what era are we playing in? Because, like, are we playing with today's rules? We're playing, you know, 80s and 90s, where it's a little bit rougher?
Starting point is 00:20:02 Because, I mean, you don't think Garnett, probably. No, I think you have to play the rules of the time that they played, don't you? Like, I'll give you, like, you put some Ed in the 90s. Yeah. Throw them in their own era. Yeah, probably. Right, because some of these guys, like, well, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:20:23 Could SGA work in the 90s when everybody's hand-checking you and super physical? He's super fast, so maybe the answer is yes, but I don't know. Garnett and Novitsky had a pretty comparable career looking at the stats at to head. Yeah, and I mean, but everything I just laid out. Yeah. And if you ever look at top 20 rankings, Dirk usually comes in about like 15, 16, 17, 17. So where's the-Gernet comes in like at 10, 11, 12? Where's the edge?
Starting point is 00:20:52 For Dirk, in your mind? I just laid it all out. I just did it. I just did the content. I still think Garnett. But, all right, going back to this question, though, which era are you picking? Oh, which era wins? Dirkless Gen X.
Starting point is 00:21:12 I mean, you just kind of have to say baby boomers. They'll cut you. Jordan and Bird together? Like, give me a break. And Barclay and Magic and Hakeem. I don't see how you lose. I think I'm with you, Dan. By the way, let's not forget the Silent Generation.
Starting point is 00:21:34 Can we name them all by faces? It's Lou Alcindor, Jerry West. Is that Elgin Baylor? Yeah. Will Chamberlain. Is that Moses Malone? Who's the one on the far left? I think so.
Starting point is 00:21:49 I'm not even sure. That's so. I'm taking baby boomers, man. I think Shaq is going to give Hakeem some problems down low, but I think Hakeem's going to give Shack real problems on offense. And I think Hakeem can play some defense if Shack's not right there at the rim, right? If Shack's not right at the rim, Hakeem's playing good defense. Hold on.
Starting point is 00:22:12 Didn't he beat him in the finals? Yeah, he was super young, right? He was super young. Like his first or second year, Shack's first or second year. I'll tell you, I think the second best team is the millennials. I think that Steph is. is a force to be reckoned with. Top five player of all time.
Starting point is 00:22:38 LeBron is LeBron. KD is KD. And then I think that one of the most underrated players at this point, I mean, it's the white guy defense minute on the Will Kane country, but it's Yokic. Like, Yokic has to be in the conversation for a top five player of all time at some point here. And he won't because he's tubby and he's white and he's foreign and all of those things. But Yokic is incredible.
Starting point is 00:23:03 he's the best player right now in the NBA. Whatever. Yokic? Yeah. I mean, Cooper flag made him look pretty bad though the other night. Give Wimby a few years to see how unstoppable he becomes, right? But I think the finals is Millennials versus Baby Boomers. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:25 And I'll take baby boomers. Settled. Let's take a quick break, but continue this episode of Will Call on Will King Country. Pain can hit hard and fast, like the headache you get when your favorite team and your fantasy team both lose. When pain comes to play, call an audible with Advil plus acetaminopin and get long-lasting dual-action pain relief for up to eight hours. Tackle your tough pain two ways with Advil plus acetaminofim. Advil, the official pain relief partner of the NFL. Ask your pharmacist at this product's rate for you.
Starting point is 00:24:00 Always read and follow the label. Welcome back to Will Kane Country. We're still hanging out with you. and we'll call advice and questions from the audience. All right. What else you got, Patrick? All right. So this woman is now making more than her husband, but there are some issues.
Starting point is 00:24:21 And so she says, I recently got a raise and will be making $175,000 a year. When I got home from work, I shared this with my husband. He could barely utter congratulations. That was it. No, out of boy, proud of you, et cetera. I am hurt that he can't set aside his ego to be proud of me and that he puts his own feelings first. My job allowed him to retire at age 54.
Starting point is 00:24:45 Am I expecting him too much from him? Whoa, whoa, whoa. Put that back up because there's details. Hold on, before you put it up, Dan. I'm going to give you my first take, and then I want to go back to the details. My first take is, husband, you have to swallow your pride.
Starting point is 00:25:04 You have to congratulate her. you have to genuinely find it within yourself why you're happy for your life partner in this moment. You have to. Like, that is the manly thing to do. Yeah. The manly thing to do is not to be insolent and insecure. However, on the flip side, I think the wife has to be understanding, too, because there are some gender roles that do play in. And on the whole and on the average, you need to understand that is going to be a negative effect on his psyche to make less than her.
Starting point is 00:25:36 good on him and it's for overcoming it but if he can't overcome it you know you do give him not a pass you're not giving him a pass you're not excusing his behavior but you're understanding a little bit where that's coming from okay but it is on him to to swallow his pride and be happy for his life partner now put it back up dan because there's other details um his his ego My job allowed him to retire at age 54. Am I expecting too much from him? So wait a minute. He's retired?
Starting point is 00:26:17 I know. So it's not like he's making one thing and she's making the other. And they're like in their 20s and 30s. Like the analysis I just gave is for a young man whose wife is making more money than him, basically, right? Now we're in a situation where he's retired. So he's making nothing. so it doesn't matter what she's making or is this about them when they were younger
Starting point is 00:26:42 this happened and now he's retired she's looking back on it is that what is that a possibility no I think it's I think it's a recent thing she's looking for advice I just don't know how you retire on
Starting point is 00:26:57 he should be nothing yeah 175 what state are they in like what are you retiring sure oh yeah yeah maybe he's a cop or a firefighter and he's got a good pinch And he, I mean, cops and firefighters can reach retirement around that age.
Starting point is 00:27:14 Right. That's true. And he's got a pension that's built up or military that he served for 20. And he's in that situation. So it could be in that. But she said her salary allowed him to retire, not his pension allowed him to retire. So now this dude totally has to swallow his ego. Like, yeah, she has a right to be upset with him.
Starting point is 00:27:37 100% Yeah I mean Go get a job as a bartender somewhere and make yourself feel useful I I mean I I don't mind my wife making more than me I thought I would more at first But like when we first started dating Obviously you don't know how much they make
Starting point is 00:27:56 And then we you know we start getting serious and move in And she tells me I'm like oh crap And I thought it would affect me a little more But it's I'm totally proud of her It's great Do you guys treat your money? Or lose the baby boomers and the basketball thing. Because Jordan would not have been happy.
Starting point is 00:28:18 That's fair. Yeah. I mean, that's accurate. Do you guys what? I think when it comes in the door, also, I think that a mistake a lot of people make is keeping finances separate. Like, I made this so it's mine and I'm spending it even though we're together. We're just starting to like once it comes in. Put it together.
Starting point is 00:28:36 Yeah. commingle. Because we just got married a year ago. Once it comes in the door, it's over. It's everybody's. That's how I feel. The biggest problem is if someone starts acting like, well, I should be able to buy this because I make more. That's when it becomes a problem.
Starting point is 00:28:55 You know what I mean? When it's like... Well, here's another situation that you're probably figuring out, Dan. I think this is a big one. Who has what role in the family? and in the house, right? So I don't think it's fair if a woman doesn't work that she begrudges a husband for not doing as much at home as she does
Starting point is 00:29:16 because you've divided responsibilities. And his responsibility is to go out and bring home the bread, the bacon, the hunting and the gathering. And then her job is to make the home. And it's not like that second job, the one that he's not doing that she is, responsibilities have to be split 50-50. Like that's not a fair
Starting point is 00:29:39 divide of life. Like do this and also this because I'm doing this? Yeah, she can't really go like you never take out the trash. Right, right, right. And he's like, you never go to work. It's like... Dude, imagine saying that to your wife.
Starting point is 00:30:01 You never do the dishes. Yeah. You never go to work. Yeah. You never leave the house, well? I think a happy marriage is one where everybody, almost intuitively, maybe it has to be explicit in the conversation, but divides their roles. Do you say it, though? You're both working like you, Dan. Or does it just, you know it?
Starting point is 00:30:21 And it's not unhappy. It's not an unhappy thing. Like, for my wife, she believes it is her job in the home, you know? When you're both working, that gets a little more difficult, right? now you're having to split home as well. Yeah, which will most likely happen for us. All right, what else? All right, so this woman has a problem with her sister who slept with her boyfriend.
Starting point is 00:30:47 Wow. I'm 20 years old and in college. I went on my boyfriend's phone and found messages that confirmed he's been sleeping with my sister. The text showed plans to meet up, references to sex, and conversations that clearly crossed any boundary of loyalty. The dates lined up with times he told me he was busier studying, and with times my sister said she was elsewhere. This wasn't a misunderstanding or flirting. It was ongoing and intentional.
Starting point is 00:31:13 I found out by myself because either of them told me the truth. Now I'm dealing with the fact that my boyfriend cheated on me with my sister. Both of them lied to my face while continuing it, and I don't know how to process the betrayal or what to do next, but I know exactly what happened. What did I do? do, what did I do? Okay, yeah. I don't, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:31:37 What did I do? What do? I don't know what to do. Well, I don't even, okay, this one is not, first of all. Simple answer. This is not hard on some levels and hard on, on another level. The boyfriend's over, over. Like, that's not hard. It's not husband. He's done. Boyfriend. Immediately.
Starting point is 00:31:56 If he was husband, it's over too. True. Immediately. The harder question is the sister. Because that's not a relationship in life that you choose. That's a relationship in life that is there. And how do you get over that? And I do think family is so important.
Starting point is 00:32:12 And I don't love hearing stories where people are estranged from their brothers or sisters, their parents, or whatever it may be. This is going to cause an estrangement from the sister. And it's on the sister to fix it. It's, you know, I guess, you know, our religious beliefs compel us to forgive. but I don't know that's a really tough one with the sister she has to seek forgiveness in my mind you know here's the more interesting question when you first put this to me Patrick what if you found out that your boyfriend before you were together was with your sister do you see what I'm saying so it's not cheating but it happened before now you're in an interesting situation
Starting point is 00:32:57 and they didn't tell you about shady but okay Shady but okay The fact that they didn't tell you about it Is the shady part Yep Right Neither the sister nor the boyfriend goes Hey that guy you're dating
Starting point is 00:33:13 I was with him once But get over it You know or hey I should tell you up front I did date or hook up with your sister Like that Because if they don't tell you it's like I don't You know is it over
Starting point is 00:33:26 Like what are we doing here It's different with guys and girls too What about brothers? I don't I've never had a brother like if it's the same girl, if your brother went out with the girl already. I don't know, oh, man. I think you could get over it.
Starting point is 00:33:44 I think you can get over all of that if, if, if it's something that is up front. Mostly. Yeah. Let's take a quick break, but continue this episode of Will Call on Will King Country. Welcome back to Will Kane Country. We're still hanging out with you.
Starting point is 00:34:02 the Willisha and Will Call advice and questions from the audience. All right. Got any more, Patrick? One more. This is the last one. Okay. This is a guy who's cooked. Loser asking for advice.
Starting point is 00:34:16 I'm 25 years old, still live with my mother, don't have a job. I don't so much outside of stuff around the house or taking the dog for a walk a few times a week. But those aren't really doing anything, you know. I usually just sit around playing video games watching YouTube. I'm a loser through and through and I think I'm tired of it. And he goes on and he says a bunch of other stuff. I'd like some genuine advice or motivation or something because, man, I need a job.
Starting point is 00:34:43 I'm 25. My time is running out, you know? Quite frankly, I'm a disappointment and I'm aware of that. I just don't know what to do to turn my life around. Please help me. What do you say to people? I mean, there are a lot of guys like this playing video games. That's true. Just kind of chilling.
Starting point is 00:34:59 not they're not really motivated teach yourself AI what do you do good job something something I know that sounds simple just something it's not too late 25 is not too late but you're right if you keep doing this it will be too late in a not too distant future I think the world will look at a 25 year old with not a lot on his resume and not a lot of accomplishments and still think he has the ability to be a productive person that can contribute to my organization and contribute to my purpose. But the way to get started is to get started. You have to stop the self-reflection. You have to stop paralysis by analysis. You have to simply do something. I'm a big believer in that Admiral William McCraven commencement address at the University of Texas where he said 10 lessons from
Starting point is 00:35:54 a Navy SEAL. If you guys have never seen it, go to YouTube. It's about a 15-minute 19 minute commencement address. You should do it. It's 10 lessons from Buds training, learning to be a Navy SEAL, but they're real lessons, and he applies it to life. And you've probably heard this before, Dan,
Starting point is 00:36:12 because I think he turned it into a book. But the number one thing he said, that he learned from military and the way that it's treating the military, the number one thing you do every day is make your bed. Do I make my bed? I don't. Okay, so I'm not sitting here on any time.
Starting point is 00:36:28 type of, you know, mountain of holiness to preach down to others. But I'm just telling you what he said. But the point of making your bed is that you have done one thing. You have done one thing to start your day. And that one thing can and will snowball. Your day will go from there. And maybe you have a crap day. Maybe it doesn't go well for you.
Starting point is 00:36:51 But at the end of the day, you will return to a made bed. And a made bed is better than an unmade bed. And I do believe that little act of productivity. And I'm telling you this part from my life. There have been times in my life when I have been paralysis by analysis. I can remember a period in my life later than 25 where I thought about thinking about what I was going to do a lot. Right. I made lists.
Starting point is 00:37:19 I did all kinds of things, but none of it added up to actual real productivity. And I've had, I feel like every phase of life. And I do know that productivity leads to other productivity. Like sitting around and analyzing and trying to get it perfect does not put you on a path to getting towards perfect. You've got to build airplanes as they fly. That's life. I don't think you sit on the tarmac forever with the blueprints going, then this, then this and this. You start building it while you're trying to take off.
Starting point is 00:37:52 And you figure out as you're flying how to change the instruments or how to change anything. Because you know what? If you crash, you crash, but you flew. You're the right brothers. You got off the ground. And you know how to get off the ground again. Okay? That's how I believe you got to do life.
Starting point is 00:38:08 So that little thing for this 25-year-old could be anything productive. Get a job doing anything, anything. And you will feel different about yourself, better about yourself. Your thoughts will become more productive, meaning you will, without even knowing it, put more of that analysis into action. You'll move from an analysis to execution. And you execute while you're doing things, not when you're thinking about doing things. I'm telling you. And I'm a big thinker.
Starting point is 00:38:39 Obviously, I sit back and I think and a grand scheme and this and that. I'm not saying that's totally worthless, but you got to start doing. So my advice to that, dude, is something. Do something. 100%. I think I'm also a thinker. So it's like very easy. Do we slow clap now? Very easy to get bogged down in that.
Starting point is 00:39:06 And that's really what it is. It's like you're trying to chase perfection in a lot of ways. And that perfection is really just fear of failing. And it's like this guy's probably afraid to go out there and subject himself to something. But like, you know, Rick Rubin, the famous producer. said, you know, it might not be the dream version of whatever you do, but you can just go execute and what you execute is the one you make, and that's a, that's good, better than nothing.
Starting point is 00:39:33 It's better to have that, have that DIY punk rock attitude. And small, take life by the balls, you know? And small positive decisions snowball, like you said. Yeah, exactly. Yes. And I do think people tell themselves specifically at around that age, I mean, look, if I'm being real, I just did a podcast called the Intersections podcast. If anybody's listening, you want to go hear me.
Starting point is 00:39:53 talked for an hour and a half about my journey, my life, my thoughts, on politics. They covered everything. But I wrote, they talk about this. Like, one of the first things I did when I moved to that ranch in Montana is I wrote a book. I wrote a novel, right? And they're like, what's it about? And I'm like, well, you'll never know. Nobody will ever know. Nobody, I'm never letting anybody read it because, to be honest, I'm embarrassed of it. I'm not embarrassed of having done it, though. That's what I'm proud of. I'm proud that I actually wrote a book from start to finish. I'm not proud of how it turned out, but who cares? Who cares? Who cares? Who cares, right? But they asked me what the book was about. Now you're getting into the embarrassing
Starting point is 00:40:28 parts, but it really was about, because I was 25, probably when I was writing this, dudes at a quarter life crisis. Like, I do think there's kind of sort of a thing of a quarter life crisis. And the reason there is a crisis is because there's too much pressure on the idea that you should be living your passion and your dream. Do you see what I'm saying? Like, I don't want to take that job because I want to be this other thing, this X, and so I can't do Y. So I'm going for my dreams. And I think that we've preached that in pop culture mentality a lot, like follow your passion or whatever it may be, live your self-fulfillment. And so it puts you in a stationary period that we just talked about.
Starting point is 00:41:09 It puts you in that paralysis by analysis. Because to be honest, a lot of people don't know. I don't know at 18, certainly. They don't know at 20-1. They don't know at 25 that I want to. be whatever it is that they want to be. And so you're stuck. You're like, how do I get started on that path? And how do I know for sure it's going to lead to that? And you just can't. So you should stop thinking about it in those terms. Stop thinking about perfection and dreams
Starting point is 00:41:36 and fulfillment and passion and start thinking about doing an execution. And again, build that life on the fly. Build that airplane as you're taking off. All right. Is that it for today? What else do we got, Patrick? Anything else? I got a couple headlines. Maybe just one. I don't know. But I think this is really funny. So TMZ is reporting that you guys know John Hinkley, the potential assassin of President Reagan back in the day. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:42:13 He was obsessed with a certain woman, Jody Foster, right? Well, he claims to TMZ that he turned Jody Foster lesbian. he was the reason that she is a lesbian today. Huh. I've done that. Because that turned her off of men? Yeah, he claims that she was dating men before, and then he tried to kill Reagan,
Starting point is 00:42:37 and then, you know, then a switch flipped. I always invert it, so. Well, I don't know why he's bragging about that. I know. There's like George Costanza out there that look at the, there's a lot of guys out there that look at the other team and go, I can change her.
Starting point is 00:42:58 I'm the magic elixir. I can change her. I need a challenge. You know, this is out there bragging. I changed her the other way. You're so repulsive that she just swore off men completely. But to take this conversation almost full circle, Patrick,
Starting point is 00:43:21 do you believe that John Hinkley was in a CIA assassin program and created. What was the name of it, Project Ultra? Is it something like that? MK.K. Ultra. What's in the BORN? Yeah, it was MK. Ultra. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:43:34 To kill a mockingbird. Here we go. Yes. Here we go. Yes. Now we're into the good stuff. So was Hinkley actually like some CI developed assassin that went bad? Like Jason Bourne, he broke?
Starting point is 00:43:49 And there are quite a few of them. Yeah. John was booth. I remember off the top of my head. It's been a few years since I really dealt into this. But yeah, I definitely think he was one of them. I think that Kuzinski, the Unabomber, was also one of them. That's true.
Starting point is 00:44:04 I've heard that, actually. Yeah. Really? Yeah. Terribly smart guy. I got to read more Unabomber. Yeah. Unabomber's fascinating.
Starting point is 00:44:14 Fascinating. No, I'm serious about that. I do. Isn't this manifesto, like, 3,000 pages or something? I mean, who's got the time? I read some summaries. That's a guy who got it done, okay? I read summaries of it, and it was very interesting.
Starting point is 00:44:33 Would AI summarize the Unabombers manifesto? Yeah. It would? Don't do it on a work computer, but yes. He doesn't know how to log into his work stuff. I mean, we're in the information business. We should know. We're in the being in the no business.
Starting point is 00:44:49 We should be able to know. Be on some list. I want to know. Pete's going to call you. he was saying. You know? Everybody thinks if you read it, you're into it. All of a sudden, you're pro-unabomber.
Starting point is 00:45:00 Just because I informed myself on the unabomber. I want to know what he was saying because, you know, the stuff that's filtering into me through, yeah, he was crazy and all these different things. But, you know, crazy also in some ways that turned out to be right, right? His projections of the future and what he saw coming down the line and all that, right? to read Mao's little red book next or is it in English I don't read Chinese or Mandarin I don't know it seems very is it in English Dan? Yeah probably um I once put my kid in Mandarin when I was a New York City yuppie that lasted six months and several thousand dollars what was the thought process there four tonal language ask him today ask him today what he can say I speak more Chinese than he does well everyone said that like Mandarin was the future.
Starting point is 00:45:52 Lao Hu. So it's probably what it is. Lao Hu, that means tiger. Wow, you're really going to work for the embassy or what? Thank you. There's a song I used to be able to sing. It was like one of those preschool things. Oh, no.
Starting point is 00:46:05 Are we talking to a communist show or what's happening? Just because you know Chinese? Just because you know Mandarin. Now you're a communist. You're right. That's racist. The idea was that's where the future of business is. Let's put my kid into this.
Starting point is 00:46:22 And that way he can go do business in China in the future. You can dominate the world. Little done. Oh, yeah. Really? Yeah. I was joking. It was a very big wave back then.
Starting point is 00:46:32 Dang. Very progressive of you. Well, back then, I didn't consider it progressive. I considered it world domination. I considered you might speak a language of, yeah, you might speak the language of, you know, a Titan in business. Like, what's more valuable to you? speaking French or Mandarin?
Starting point is 00:46:55 If you could pick right now and you could speak one or the other, which do you think is more valuable? I took French, so the other. And how, and what's that done for your life? Literally nothing. I've never been to France in my life. Yeah, Mandarin. Spanish is valuable. I think Spanish is valuable. Speaking which. I prefer, I wanted to learn German. I tried to learn German for a while, but then I started working on this show. Last thing before we go, the Chinese thing, the population was very much.
Starting point is 00:47:25 very interesting that you sent the other day, Patrick. Oh, yes. Yes. How they might not actually be telling the truth about the population, which might do something to the future. Well, they lie about everything else. They lie about their economy. They lie about almost everything. So I forgot that you sent this, Patrick.
Starting point is 00:47:47 You saying they're lying about the number of Chinamen? This person said that. This person claimed that it was like half of what they say it is. but then you start to think about all of the foreign aid that we send around to the world and and people are like so are there actually 8 billion people on the earth or are you know maybe like half of how do we actually have half of that because of welfare fraud right essentially foreign aid fraud are we counting are we counting the wildlings the ones outside the ice wall no no that's a totally different oh no no
Starting point is 00:48:26 It's a different dimension. That's utopia. They don't need foreign aid. All right.
