Welcome back to another Belly'd up podcast presented by a fleet farm.
We love it. We love it. You jumped the gun on. I know. I know.
We farm Charlie. Where are we at today?
We're at Foggy. Do. Foggy do over here in the same. What do you say? Foggy do. Foggy do.
So I was I've never been here before obviously great power
A little nervous to say what the bar name was because I didn't know how to pronounce it so it's foggy foggy
Do do
Do like when you wake up in the morning and you go out and it's a year is there you like you come to this bar
What's with they got a man? It's a great bar. They got these great chia pets over here.
Yeah, one looks, one's looking a little sad though.
The, the two are thriving.
The one looks like it, well, it's because it's in the shade there.
Yeah, someone's got to move that over, give it a little water.
You know, photosynthesis, pretty simple sun and water.
So, let's, we can't glaze over the fact that this bar
is literally just in a house in a
neighborhood.
I know random street.
I didn't know that that was a thing.
How is that?
Is there no rules here in Milwaukee or what there were rules and they were probably broken
and just got grandfathered in.
I probably got grandfathered.
I mean, this is back in the day when a neighborhood bar was and they actually had a neighborhood back before you had
homeowners associations and all that garbage.
You know, you just said, hey, Frank, you got a nice house.
Why don't you put a bar in it?
And Frank put a whole frickin' bar in his house
and then just lived upstairs.
And lived upstairs, and that was okay.
I like that.
I don't know if that's the story here, but.
Yeah, well, it doesn't matter.
You know, we'll roll with it.
So by the time fantastic bar, it's got a pool table.
It's got a great pool tabs here.
Great pool tabs.
We won a dollar by the way, guys.
So yeah.
Yeah.
So they're excited for us.
It's another day, Poltab investing.
Yeah, I know. The story is old this time It's just another day, Poltab investing. Yeah, I know.
It's a story is old this time.
Yeah, and I got to find the dollar.
She's always, oh, you got, you, you tore it off real good.
Thank you.
So thank you very much.
I'll take that, don't give that to Miles, but, you know,
it's, I mean, it's a great bar.
It's got a great feel.
Got a pool table.
Some nice old beer signs.
I love the old beer signs.
That's, that's really cool and
Yeah, oh yeah, and the bathroom bathroom literally
About five feet from the bar. So if you're an occasional flush, that's just
You'll have that on these smaller bars. You know, I have that that's how it works and it's it's
Instead of sublay tile is sort of a backdrop.
It's beautiful brick.
It's just brick.
Yeah, amazing.
Outside of the building.
But Charlie, how you feel today?
So obviously, this is day three that we've been in Milwaukee.
We recorded a lot of these ahead of time because I live in Fargo.
Charlie lives in Milwaukee.
And we're both bad with scheduling.
We're bad with scheduling.
So we'd like to shoot a bunch at once
This is day three. How are you feeling here on day number three of shooting the physically are emotionally both emotionally
About is that the way I feel physically tired tired, but but we're here doing it
You know, I think other people in our scenario would have said, eh, two days was good enough. Quit. But on the third day when we were asked to day drink, did we quit? No, we showed up.
No, we showed up. The seventh day is for the rest. The seventh day is for the rest.
So we should drink for another three days after this. And then we can take a break.
You got lit up like a Christmas bushing at the bar last night. Yeah, I did. Well, that'll happen.
When in Milwaukee, you know, when in Milwaukee.
That's what they say.
Yeah.
Milwaukee will get you.
Milwaukee will get you.
That's what's this when you drive in.
It's Milwaukee population.
Yeah, how about that drive in?
Am I right?
Yeah, that drive in.
Um, you know, well, I was a little upset
of you because I thought you were going to be fun last night.
But instead, you just like, you just drink water and went home, you know, oh, wow.
Oh, I years the situation.
We're going to have fun at some point on this trip.
We can have fun tonight when I dropped my car off earlier.
Okay.
I had my automobile and I had to be pretty buttoned up, but you had someone to drive your automobile
so you got hammered town.
Well, it was fun to watch. I would never call it that, but you got a little job. I went,
yeah, I got a little a little topsy turbsy, little tippy-tipsy turbsy, but yeah, you're
very fun to hang out with regardless. Just yelling in your face the whole time. Yeah,
we're, yeah, you were raising your voice. He just miles as hard a hearing.
Not while one that, to when I drink,
I just, it's just a,
my body just starts talking louder.
I can't help it.
Yeah, I know.
It's just like that's just a natural thing, right?
Yeah.
And that's like some people that drink
they get literally quiet and go sit in the corner
and lean up against the wall.
Yeah.
I don't do that.
I just get louder.
I can't do anything about it.
I bit my tongue eating wing or I bit my lip eating hot wings.
Guys, this is so much fun we're having in the evenings here.
But why are we getting wild?
Most notable thing that happened last night was Charlie accidentally biting his lip and
shedding blood.
So hungry.
Yeah.
I gotta, hey, you gotta eat the food, not your lip.
I know. Well, I know that hey, you gotta eat the food, not your lip. I know.
Well, I know that now.
You live and you learn.
Anyway, I'm excited to get some colors, aren't you?
Yeah, it's gonna be a good docket of colors, I think.
Let's rock and jack.
Yeah, let's get into some colors.
Hello.
How you doing?
Hello.
Is this my friend, Miles and Charlie?
Well, this is Charlie, yeah, Miles is here too. I
am also here. What's going on, man?
Hey, doing pretty good. How about
you guys? We're doing good. We're
actually just getting your audio
levels right here. It's a little
hard to hear you, but we're figuring
it out. And uh, oh, there it is. We
are good to go. So what's your
name? My name is Mike Mike. Where are you from?
I'm called from Minneapolis, Minnesota. Nice. Great city. One of the great American cities. Minneapolis is.
Well, we're glad the a-called in Mike. Why don't you belly up to the bar with us. Tell us what's on your mind. Yeah, what's cooking?
Well, you know, first I want to start out with I want to say thank you to you guys. I don't think you guys get
Thank you enough. Oh, well, I I moved I
Moved out from Massachusetts almost three years ago
Oh, Minnesota and
Prepping for my move out there watching your guys video listen to your podcast all that and really
Pretend me for for the everyday living out here.
So we gave you the answers to the test is what you're saying. Yeah, we were your cheat sheet.
Yeah, you know, I had a great cheat sheet, you know, a few costs and not know what the answers were.
So I kind of learned off of that.
Oh, well, thanks for saying that. We do appreciate you. And we like the audience know that Mike is not a plant. Okay, he is a person.
Yeah.
And we never met Mike before.
He's not.
Yeah.
He's not just calling to blow our horn.
But we like when you blow our horn.
Thank you.
Are you guys winking right now?
Stay on the mouth.
Are we winking?
Yeah.
So for the, for the, the, the sign to say I did a good call in for the mole job.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
He's definitely not the plant.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That would have been funny if we winked.
You know, Mike, come on, be a writer for us.
Yeah.
I think you got what it takes.
All right.
Oh, cool.
Thanks for blowing my horn there.
Yeah, we'll blow your horn all day.
So what's on your mind, Mike?
You know, I'm looking for some advice and some recommendations from you guys.
Okay, let's start with the advice.
So, oh, I guess it's the same thing here.
Okay, let's start with the other one.
I got a group of buddies that I've known since elementary school.
We're all super tight.
And now a few of us, they still live in Massachusetts, New Hampshire, but I got myself in a buddy that lived out in Minnesota.
Another friend that's moving out to, he's in Florida now. New Hampshire, Minnesota, Florida. Yeah,
you guys spread around the map. We did. We did. And we were just at one of my best friends,
weddings in July. And one of my friends said, this is going to be
hard for all of us to get in the same room now all together,
which is true with all of us all over the place. Yeah. So we're,
we're trying to plan a guy strip every year now on the same weekend.
Yeah, we can, you know, always have on the calendar.
No way to get around it. Yep.
I don't have any kids that could potentially interfere with that. Right. If you're going to have sex, don't have sex nine months before then.
Make sure, make sure it's either right at right a couple of months before a couple
months after you got to use the guys trip rhythm method.
That's true. They'll get all the same plan here.
Yeah.
Yeah.
We got a small group of us going out in October to Murdole Beach for some golfing.
Yeah.
But we're trying to get some ideas now for the next locations we can go to.
So I'm trying to think what you guys have to adjust here.
Got it.
Well, you've laid a great infrastructure so far.
All the fellas know that this is, they blocked this weekend off every single year.
I wouldn't even think about maybe drawing up a contract because there's going to be one
of your buddies is going to try and whistle his way out of this scenario somehow.
Yeah, whistle it out or get all the other fellas on his side that this other weekend is better
and then you're left in the cold.
So let's get a fellas contract going.
You know, and it could just be, you know, spitting the hand handshake too.
We can go with that.
But yeah, your word is bond.
That's what you need in this scenario.
Yeah.
You guys should, uh, you should get your best buck knife and slice all your palms.
And, you know, it's test to make sure no one's got any blood diseases.
Transverbal.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, that's how they did it back in the medieval day.
It days and also on that one movie where they went to Vegas.
And that worked out great for them.
So where you want to go after my double beach.
That's the question.
Yep.
Okay. Have you thought about the Wisconsin Delts?
Oh, the Wisconsin Delts is an absolute amazing trip.
Uh, it is.
You've got the most watersides per capita on the planet.
You've got Rick Wilcox's, uh, magic castle.
You've got, Icox's magic castle.
You've got, I think they're gonna bring back the Tommy Bartlett-Ski Sky in stage show.
And if they haven't, I'm putting that out there
to all our listeners.
Someone needs to buy that and resurrected.
You've got Paul Bunyan with that,
not at all, ironic, porno stash.
You know, there's so many amazing things
in the Wisconsin
down already sold it already sold it.
I don't think we need to go any further with no, I think that we found your next spot.
And this is actually a great concept.
I'm glad you brought this up.
I'm not actually thrilled you're going outside the Midwest for your fellas trip.
I think all your fellas trips can be in the Midwest starting with the Wisconsin
Bell.
And then miles, what's another good Midwest destination?
Well, what kind of vibes do you think we're going for
the one after that?
Cause obviously fun and recreation is the Wisconsin Dells.
Yeah.
If you're going on another golf trip or, you know,
some else,
let's say he's going on another golf trip,
aren't there like a golf courses in the Midwest?
There are.
It all depends on how much you want to spend, you know,
golf course, spendy, golf courses, spending, get them
the best one.
Well, then you're going to want to go over to Whistlin straights.
Oh, Kohler.
They got that, they got that PGA level golf course there.
Yeah.
And when I say go to the Shaboygan area.
Yeah, Shaboygan.
There you got it, you know, and then, and what do you sayaboygan? Charlie, uh, shaboygan is a fantastic town.
No, isn't it like the, the Maui of the, oh, the, the, it's the Malibu of the Midwest.
You guys can go surfing there too.
So you do golfing and they got great waves.
Shaboygan's waves.
Are you, are you familiar with the waves in shaboygan?
I can't say.
Maybe it's a fellas surfing trip. If the golf is too expensive, and it is expensive golf over there, but if it's too expensive, go rent a surfboard
or put some pontoon floats on an ironing board and give it a go.
Now I can I feel like I can already see the looks my friends will give me if I
suggest a surfing trip in the Midwest.
A lot of smiles, a lot of smile.
That's, that sounds awesome as well.
It's going to be an excitement, but the fun doesn't end there.
You can also take them to the Ozarks.
Oh, yeah.
I'm sure one of your buddies needs to wander some money.
And I hear Ozarks is a fantastic place to make it happen.
If you have that many buddies from high school,
one of them is into some weird shit.
And so he's gonna need a good money laundering
business head down there.
Maybe he moves there.
Maybe he moves there from Chicago
and opens up a strip, he gets,
buys a strip club.
Yup. Maybe he buys a resort.
It's an exotic dancing establishment.
Sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry.
A resort.
Yes.
A funeral home, funeral home.
Just don't ask him too many questions.
And you will not end up in the bird.
Maybe he'll open up a riverboat gambling boat.
Could do any of that.
So Ozarks, we got Wisconsin Dts. We got your boygan.
We've already given you three great vacation spots. Are there any more Midwest vacations?
You go to the Lake Okabogi as well. Oh, Lake Okabogi. I haven't been there yet, but
it's like on my list of things to do at some point. I've heard really good things about
Lake Okabogi. Mike, so where's that one located? That's in Iowa. Yeah. Okay. So yeah, you
can you guys could even do a whole like run down to the, so you start shaboy again, then
go to the delts, then go to Lake Okoboji and then head on down to the Ozarks. It's pretty
fun trip. Pretty good. And I also hear Toledo, very nice this time of year. It is it's a great city great size Charlie. Yeah
How big is Toledo comparison to oh Toledo is about half Milwaukee. Oh, yeah
Well, how big is Milwaukee? Yeah, it's about two Toledo's okay. Yeah, so you know Toledo is great
Also, if you're in the cars you can go to Detroit, you can do the Ford Museum tour, which is fantastic.
And the Chicago Aquarium, the Shed Aquarium.
Is this just turned into an ad for Midwest tourism here now? I think it's what we're doing.
Yeah, we are telling them to do all your tourism in the May, yes, you can go go to South Dakota deadwood.
Oh, that would that's actually like put that high up on your list. You and your buddies got to
take a trip to deadwood. They can do some golf in there too, but you're going to want to do that.
Gamble in a lot of saloons. All that stuff. A wall to stop the wall drive on the way, too.
Yes, you do.
It's a whole thing.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So, yeah, I think we gave you some good options.
Yeah, I think we got you going for your vacation with your boys.
If I had to go top three on our current list, I think I would go, I think I would go in no particular order. I go deadwood Ozarks and Shaboy again.
Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh And that is in a very particular order. Wisconsin Dells first.
All right, well, we'll see in the delis. How does that sound?
Here's a lineup right there.
Yeah, we got you.
We got you.
You ask and you shall receive.
I mean, I don't even know what I was thinking about.
I should have called in earlier.
I know.
I know.
But you live and you learn.
That's the truth.
All right, well, make sure you get your buddies tested
before you do the blood, the blood brothers.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
Okay.
Get them tested and then start mixing that blood
in every single year.
Yeah.
I'm kind of jealous, honestly.
I am jealous.
I am kind of, yeah.
I mean, I just like, that's something that I dream of,
you know, having a band of brothers like that
that we can do a trip every year.
That's great.
And have the same weird scar on your palm.
Hey, it's nice.
It just getting harder.
Like you said, I mean, punch my friends out kids now.
So that's all we got to get it on paper.
Yeah.
Yeah, this is the weekend.
Yep.
Yeah.
That's the move.
Yeah.
Well, we're glad that you called in.
Hopefully we helped you out a little bit.
No, like I said, my answer is assault right there.
I'm good to go.
Oh, you got to make sure you don't do it
over anyone's anniversary unless you're not
a fan of his spouse.
That would be a good move.
Yeah.
Yeah, true.
OK.
Well, thanks.
Thanks for calling in.
Oh, you got some else on your mic.
I got one more quick thing for you guys.
You don't mind.
Oh, yeah. I don't know quick thing for you guys, you don't mind. Oh, if, yeah.

but have you guys ever thought about doing a friend
of the program?
Friend of the program.
Well, is it where we get a regular call?
Hey, don't call them once in a while
because I would be honored to kind of fill that
plot of possible.
You know what, Mike?
You send us your travel plans for the Wisconsin
Dell strip with you and the fellas, and you will be our
first friend of the program.
How does that sound?
That's, you know, that's a bargain.

Oh, God. Well, you know, that grandma, that's what I just got done talking about grandpa Bob, you know, you remember when he said to me,
Charlie, marry the first time for money. And the second time're married for love. You remember when you said that to me?
Yeah, I do.
I do.
And then I,
What's that?
He told all my grandchildren that he did,
but you know, he married you and you didn't have money.
So what happened there?
He thought I had money.
Yeah, that's what he says.
He says grandma lied to me.
Is that
Aunt Mary in the background too? I'm Mary, how you doing? I'm I'm always

Are you coming Saturday or tomorrow?
I thought, well, I mean, Saturday is a Saturday works. But if you want me to come tomorrow, I'll come up early and cut your grass.
Charlie, you just, you just texted me that you're coming up tomorrow. Yeah, I forget what day it is, Mary. Cheese.

You got a hot date tonight? What's going on?
No, no, no.
You know, my nails break if I don't have something on them.
And I'm trying to do it myself, so I'm just going to treat myself.
Maybe I'm old enough to treat myself.
Yeah, you are. And then if Mary pisses you off, you can just stick those claws right in her.
We're going to wait night, that's her.
Yeah.
Telling you, maybe you can come up and paint her nails sometime.
I'd pay money to see that.
I'd paint her nails.
I got all the good colors here.
Yeah, we could do a little video on that.
All right, well, consider it done. I'll do grandma's nails the next time
Oh, no, Mary you're doing the toenails
Oh, oh you're going on a nice extended trip, huh?
Oh my gosh, well you guys are best guests on the Bellydub podcast now. So it's fantastic.
Yeah, you're bellying up to the bar with us. That's how it goes. I got a question though about
It's the Cripes cast Mary thinks for getting the damn time. I swear. We're all podcasting
It's the Cripes cast, Mary, thanks for getting the damn title. Full of Cripes cast.
Where are all podcasting miles down?
You know what?
Don't screw that up.
All right, miles has a question for you.
So I got a question about Charlie's lawn mowing skills.
What are they like?
Is he the best you can find?
I don't know if he's skills.
He's terrific.
He's really good.
You know, that's not true.
We've never seen him do it.
I don't have to do it. I have to please. We've never seen him do it. I'm happy you're doing it.
I have to say.
Oh, you've never seen me do it, Mary.
What the hell are you?
What are you?
What are you drinking?
I have not seen you, Mo.
The walk in Charlie.
Her memory is bad.
Yeah.
A little better than that.
Hang on.
We're plugging you in here.
All right. All right. Keep talking. we're plugging you in here. All right.
All right.
Keep talking.
Can we hear you?
Yeah.
Okay.
Mary, I was just up there cutting the grass.
Okay.
And you yelled at me for running over.
What is going on?
He was too.
Yeah.
Mary, because I ran over all those signs.
Remember?
And you got mad at me.
Oh, my God.
I took my lines down.
I took them down to Moe and then accidentally ran one over.
I remember that and the Moe job was not good, Charlie.
Oh, how's the lines not straight?
I'm telling you, there was a lot of uncut grass left.
There was no.
OK, the lines might not have been straight, Mary, but there was no uncut grass left. There was no, okay, the lines might not have been straight,
Mary, but there was no uncut grass, okay.
I take, he did not go around the trees at all.
And there was, there was a lot of garbage in there.
No, I grandma test right now.
We had a lot.
Mary, let me tell you this much,
let me tell you this much right now.
First of all, how much was that lawn cutting service? Huh?
What lawn cutting service?
Wow.
You get what you pay for, I guess, is the moral of the story.
Yeah, you know what, Mary, I've just
Oh, don't honey me now, Mary.
Oh, yeah, now you love me. Well, I like you, Mary. I love you. Oh, yeah. Now you love me.
Well, I like you, Mary.
I like you a lot.
She's always.
I'm your daughter.
She loves you.
I don't think so.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Well, this is actually a good moment here.
We're, uh, we've been giving out advice to people
across the Midwest and our podcasts.
I'm wondering if you guys have some advice for us. Yeah, what's your advice for us? We at this podcast, we give out advice.
That's the point of it. So when I do it, I don't think you want our advice. I think we'll
take the advice that you got and it better not be keep your mower straight. Oh, let's see.
What would give me a topic, Char?
Miles, give him a topic.
Don't have it be married.
I was going to say relationship advice.
I would say don't take grandpa Bob's advice.
It never works.
It never works out. You never know when you're being lied to.
That's true.
And let me tell you, I agree with that whole heartedly.
Well, Grandma, what's your advice?
I would say you have to marry for love.
Marry for love.
Yes, not money.
Not money.
That was high when he gave that.
He was high?
That was the price.
Yeah.
High on what, Mary?
What was he smoking weed?
Well, that'd be drunk.
Now I find out grandpa was smoking the pot.
The devil's was. Grandpa was smoking the pot the devil's grandpa never smoked that oh boy oh boy Mary you are digging
yourself into a hole now I dug it yeah well I'm not gonna smoke the weed but
you got only knows what was in his drink when he said that.
Yeah, probably a lot of brandy.
Um, what now grandpa always used to when he was looking to relax, he would sit in a chair
in the garage.
Why did he do that?
He was outside the garage because he always did that when he was a kid Charlie and he looked
at the cows.
He has to say, I used to watch the cows go by now and watching the car go by.
Very profound. Very profound. You know when he was five years old, he brought
more has had cows across the street. They owned a farm and they hired him for a nickel a day to bring the coze on nickel a day. Wow. No wonder he needed to marry rich.
Yeah, he was only making a nickel a day. You see where that came
from. That was about 1938, 39. 38. That nickel will go very
far. Doesn't anymore. When my mom and dad got married,
Char, my mom's dad said,
I don't think you should marry
Bob because he's blue collar
and your white collar.
Oh, geez.
How is she white collar,
but didn't have any more money?
That's what I'm thinking.
I'm like fondleac
white collar mean some different, I
guess. What was my goodness?
Why did she say that? What was
he talking about? Yeah.
You know, it was the best thing I
did was very grandpa and my brother
Joel agrees. You mean seriously, child child my mom's dad didn't have anymore money than my dad's dad
Well, you know, it's all about perception, isn't it?
Yeah, that's for sure
So your relationship advice is don't marry for money don't take
Don't take ramp of vibes.'t take grandpa Bob's advice. Don't take grandpa Bob's advice.
Oh, that's great advice, guys.
That's my advice.
You got any more advice for us or no?
Could be about anything life, whatever.
When you buy a dog, buy a miniature shit
to and call him Reagan.
Oh, this is Mary's dog Reagan.
He's so small.
He looks like frickin' musky bait.
Literally, you just strap that collar to some hooks
and you could get yourself the biggest Moskey
on Lake Winnebago.
No, Charlie, he's got a complex
because when you're wrong, he feels like there's gonna be
a fuck put in his back and he's gonna be throwing
into Lake Winnebago.
Well, he shouldn't dress up like Moskeybait, so.
And I've got
some advice for the audience. Don't buy really expensive winter coats for your dog.
How's that sound? Oh my gosh. I mean, honest, that dog's got better coats than
I do, Mary. He's got better coats than you do. $75.75, he's like, your father used to work for a
nickel a day. You know how many days I would take to buy that coat? Yeah. What would
Grandpa Bob say if he knew that you were spent 75 dollars on a dog coat? He would have been proud of me, Charlie. No, he would not have been married, not for that.
Geez.
All right. That's all pretty good advice, Charlie. Yeah, that is
pretty good advice. Well, thank you guys for giving me.
I think we did well on this podcast, Charlie. Have a son again.
Yeah, I will have you on, Mary. And maybe the next time you come
on, you can remember when I cut the frickin lawn. I was that sound

Myles it was good to hear from you
Good to talk is Charlie cut in the grass tomorrow or Saturday. I don't know if we ever establish
Charlie yeah, I'm taking the signs out
Why don't you just take them out forever? That's a Charlie, uh, your last, your last note about the
machete. Yeah. Um, you're not doing that. I wasn't
kind of, I don't, there's no machete there anymore. What
happened to that machete? By the way, who got that? I don't
know. Somebody braided the garage and took that. I got the drill press. That's pretty nice. Yeah,
I was wondering where that was. Yeah, well, I'll bring it back if you want it. No, I need a
char. Oh, Charlie, by the way, while you're on podcasts, I have to compliment you on the sale of the boat.
Oh, yeah, we sold that boat.

I think they would sound. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, yeah. They're a I mean, they you got to do a better job cutting your lawn. Okay, you can't
Merri and boss involves she's because what she's in she's in a spot where she's like oh
Charlie comes to does it for free, but she doesn't know how to tell you you're not doing a very good job
First of all, I'm doing it for free. I'm doing an adequate job. All right, I add a quick job because now
I'm not a lines guy. I don't care about the lines.
So I do go a little willy-nilly from time to time, but that's the way I've always been.
I've always been a circular guy.
I go in circles.
Yeah, that's not good.
You don't go in circles?
No, you don't want to go in circles.
Why not?
It just is, I don't know, it's just very amateurish.
I mean, okay, can I tell you this?
Grammysus grass mostly clover and crab grass.
Okay. There's like, is not the lawn. Oh, a lot of dandy lions. Oh, yeah. I mean, we've got a weed
collection there. Thistles, I mean, you what you walked your barefoot. It's more of a field.
It is a field. Yeah, we got, which is fine. A lot of native species, a lot of invasive species.
You know, yeah. All right. There's never been a pesticide on that grass, not because anyone's a hippie just because
no one is cares, no one's paying that money.
My grandpa would never pay money for them to come spray what on the lawn.
The hell's a difference, you know, is that kind of guy?
Skiper shoes on the Thistles won't get you.
You go barefoot.
He just had calluses for days, you know.
Yeah.
All right.
Anyways, hey belly doppers, how are we doing?
I didn't know, you know, you're belly up to the bar.
A belly dopper.
That's an okay name.
Anyway, what I'm calling you doesn't matter.
What I'm telling you about, that's what matters.
Toilet.
Man, toilet is, it's the best time to be a kid with toilet at the fleet farm.
When I was a kid, you know, they had that catalog that came out, you know,
you'd be like, point to your mom and dad, be like, can I get this?
Can I get this and they'd be like, oh, no.
And but you kept pressing them.
And then eventually when they were at the fleet farm, getting one of their toys,
they'd look at you looking at your toy and they're like, all right.
And then you walk out with that slick new toy. Geez, Louise, them were the days.
I'm gonna go buy a toy at Toyland just to remember it.
Ah, it was awesome.
Anyway, give your kids the gift they'll love.
Take them over to Toyland.
Let them look around.
And when they ask you,
Dad, can we get this mom?
Can we get this?
Tell them no.
And that's fun, that's fun too. No tough love goes a long way
But eventually get them the toy maybe get it for them for Christmas or something say Santa got it for them
That's a good time plus guys October is breast cancer awareness month and during the month of October

Hello, who do we got on the line?
This is Pat Pat.
What?
Miles has been doing that for every guest he's been going.
Pat.
Yeah, like, like, uh, what's up my guy?
It's kind of fun.
That's going to be your signature thing.
Yeah.
That is my, it is already. All right, Pat. What's gonna be your signature thing. Yeah, that is my it is already all right pat
What's going on? Where are you at what you haunt sounds like you're in the car. Yeah, are you driving?
Yeah, I'm driving right now. I work for John deer John deer
What do you do for John deer?
Plot the cell do for John Deere. I'm a salesman. Lost a sell. All right. Well, maybe that's how we should start
it off. Why don't you sell us something? Yeah, sell us something. What should we buy from you?
Well, I was actually looking more for advice. Okay. All right. I know. I know Miles is looking for
a zero turn so we can get miles at zero turn. Okay, so this is this is the yeah
There we go. That's a good sales pitch. Yeah smart. Yeah smart. He's selling it. Yeah without selling it Wow
He's throwing the always do have the 60 inch back
We do have 60 inch back miles and 72
So he could really show up your neighbors 72 inch deck. it would take like three swipes in my garden
Be nice. Yeah, you would
There would be nowhere for the squirrels to run. No, you know, they tried to get out of the way and they
Yep. Oh, there goes another goes another honey. We got dinner. Yeah, they are good
What is your question?
Pat so Just got a new dog. Oh, what kind?
Foreman. She's a husky mix, a rescue.
Okay, Miles is a dog lover. So, and I am too.
So, and you got a husky mix, beautiful blue eyes.
Yeah, she's got bright blue eyes almost like white.
Oh, gorgeous.
What's dog's name?
My girlfriend named her name is Iris.
Iris.
Okay.
Well, there's an iris in your eye.
Yeah, exactly.
So that's kind of where she got the name to.
And then it's also a God of messengers or something like that.
It's also a God of messenger something like that.
It's also a great Google doll song too.
Yeah.
The Google dolls.
You know, it is Google does.
How does that go?
I wish you would step back from that.
No, that is that is that is jumpers.
Oh, yeah.
Sad song.
Iris, I do not like, yeah, I do.
What's the first queer?
I can I was and I don't want the world to see me because I don't think that they'd
understand when everything's made to be broken.
I just want you to know who I hair.
Oh, yes. Wow. Yeah. I just want you to know who I hair.
Oh, gosh.
Wow.
Pat, aren't you happy you called it, I mean.
So what's up?
That was wonderful.
That made my day.
Okay.
What's going on with the Irish?
But anyway, she seems like she's learning
to go to the bathroom outside.
And then the next day, she won't go to the bathroom outside and only inside.
Uh, yeah, and how long have you had Iris?
This is very common with puppies.
I want everyone to know.
She doesn't need, she's not a bad dog.
She just, you know, has some emotional issues she's processing.
So how long have you had her?
So I've had her about two weeks now she's about four months old almost. And you rescued her, right?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Seems like what?
So, what's that?
You said it seems like and then I cut you off because I'm a bad interviewer.
No, it seems like she likes to go to the bathroom
inside rather than outside.
I have the perfect solution.
So what you're gonna wanna do is you're gonna wanna go
to maybe the local swap meet, the flea market.
You're gonna purchase some old furniture for real cheap.
You're gonna put that in the yard,
maybe put down our area rug,
maybe a couple lamps,
and you're gonna bring the inside outside,
and she's gonna think that, you know,
letting it go inside, but really, you trick her.
I don't often say this, but that is really sound.
It's a great idea, isn't it?
And you know what, Pat? I think that I'm gonna often say this, but that is really sound. It's a great idea, isn't it? And you know what, Pat?
I think that I'm going to add on to that.
And I'm going to say that because your wife, wife, right, or girlfriend, I forget already.
Girl friend, because you're, well, it's time, you know, you complete the deal there.
First of all, geez, go, geez, you know, you guys are living together on a dog.
Yeah, no, what do you think?
No, we're not, we're not living together.
She's living in Bismarck, I'm living down in Bowman.
Well, you got some time yet.
So I do think that since she named the dog, the dog has attached herself a little bit to your girlfriend who probably likes
peeing inside the more than peeing outside.
That's probably because of the bathroom inside, you're right.
And whereas you pat, if you're like other fellas that I happen to know, you prefer peeing
outside.
And I think you just have to, you know, because that was more fun to pee outside if you're
a fella, because it's easy for us, easy access. So I think you should go out there with Iris and pee on
the coffee table that you purchased from the thrift store, same bennies. You got to
show her what to do. Yeah. Monkey see monkey do. Yeah. Yeah. And and Iris and Iris is is you know just taken a little too much to your
your gal friend okay and there's nothing wrong with that but teach her out and and the thing is
you're gonna have to kind of pee like a female dog a little bit but that is very fun
it's very fun Miles is laughing because he's tried it before.
I've been there done that.
Yeah.
It's so much fun.
I do live across the street from the school.
So when I get arrested, are you going to be the one to bail me out?
I was doing the back yard.
Yeah, don't you have a backyard.
Don't you have privacy?
What the hell is going on these days?
What happened to privacy? That's nonsense. Well, I hope hope that I mean, I think those are both good options. Yeah, I think
so too. Bring me inside outside and show them what so I risk what to do. Unless the school is in view
them for gosh sakes, invest in offense first, a big tall fence. So, yeah, I think that's a good option. Yeah. Pat, you don't have a lot of
inflection in your voice for his salesman. And I didn't want to say that, Charlie. That's kind of
thinking the same. Well, I'm thinking it's us. It's not him. I'm sure when Pat needs to turn it on,
he's going to turn it on. But he's not, he's not that enthused with our
it doesn't feel like we have sold him on this idea. No. Yeah. Pat, have we sold you on
this? I like, I like you meet people face to face, you know, I meet them face to face,
and then they can see that I am a little bit more meaningful. Yeah. Yeah. You know what,
that's good. You're not a, you're not a, a BS or a politician with your sales.
You're just like, you're a true blue.
It's much easier in person to, you know, pull the cold side, you know,
seize pack and heat and say, if you don't buy this from me, you know,
wow, consequence.
You took that to a very weird place.
It must be because we were talking about deadwood earlier.
Yeah.
I'm kind of in like old Western type of vibe here. Yeah, it's a great show. By the way,
Pat, if you haven't watched it. I don't think I have. Yeah, Deadwood on HBO, it's an older show.
You like it. Well, thanks for calling in, Pat. I'm glad that we could give you some life-changing advice here on the belly-to-pie, Jess.
Yeah, hopefully things start turning around for us here.
I think they will.
I think they will.
Little bit of hope.
Go a long way.
Well, you got your blinker on, so we'll let you turn there.
And watch out for deer, okay?
All right sounds good. See you pat
That pat's a nice guy, you know, I actually
We should have like a tear of like
Some of our worst advice we've given was you got graphic and then yep some of our best advice. I think that's like top five
The outdoor living room.
You know what I think, honestly. We make a book of our best advice and our worst advice.
That would actually be good.
You love writing books.
I don't.
That was my next point was we should have someone else.
Write the book.
Write it.
All they have to do is translate our words.
That is true.
That would be such a pain in the ass.
All they gotta do is listen to the pot.
We don't even have to meet with them and tell them what we want.
They just listen to the podcast.
They write down the best advice we gave,
and then they write a book.
Well, let's ask the audience.
Do you think we should make a book?
They'll be like, we're not gonna buy a book.
I already, I can hear them.
I get, they're saying yes. Oh heard it. I get they're saying yes.
Oh, yes, okay.
They're saying yes.
It's a great coffee table book in your backyard.
Oh, see we did that.
That's dog can pee on.
Yeah, good.
All right, we got it.
No, we're going to take another caller.
I'm feeling good.
I'm feeling great.
Feeling better than you.
No.
Yeah.
Oh, tequila.
Jesus, go, please, it's calling me.
No way.
George Clooney was at this bar too.
He signed that Kassamiga's bottle.
He signed it.
The bottle must be worth so much.
Well, Charlie, that was real pleasant.
That was, was that?
That was pleasant to talk to your Mima and your auntie. Yeah, grandma soon
Auntie Aunt Mary. She's soon Aunt Mary. Honestly, I'd like them a little bit more than I like you I think
Yeah, I do too. Yeah, I mean, I think that everyone felt that way, but yeah, but that happened
They should have their own podcast everyone likes my grandmother more than me too
So it's just nothing to be ashamed of. It's just how it goes. We should get your grandma on the podcast next time. We should try, yeah.
I don't know if she's going to be down or not, but we'll see. Tell her, we say if we get to a million
downloads, how many downloads is a lot? Once will get to enough.
Okay.
Yeah.
All right.
Yeah, we'll see.
But it sounds like you're not doing as good a job as you could on the mowing of the
lawn.
Yeah.
Well, my Aunt Mary is, you know, you should tell them that beggars can't be choosers,
you know?
Well, I'm a mulcher.
So that's the problem.
They want the bags.
Yeah.
Not the beggar.
You know, but hey, you pay what you get you pay for
What is it? Yeah, get what you pay for get what you pay for was a free lawn job
And so it's gonna be a little rough around the hedges
Like that. Yeah, I think that's maybe the way we got hit in this episode Charlie. That was good. All right
