Starting point is 00:00:49 Hey there, folks. Welcome to the Bellied Up Podcast. I am Charlie Barons, and ho, ho, ho. Merry last Christmas. It's over now, Miles. So, this is Miles, by the way. Are you a Christmas Eve or Christmas Day guy guy or equal? Oh, I'm a Christmas Eve guy. Cause I like the Christmas Eve too. Yeah. I like the anticipation. You know, I
Starting point is 00:01:12 like the, um, you know, uh, baby Jesus, not quite in the crib yet. You know, I liked the, uh, the, I liked the idea of, you know, Santa coming. You like labor more than you like the afterbirth. You know, spoken like a true father, Miles. Tell you what, once they get that epidural, I know they didn't have them back then. But I mean, you're chilling until it's go time. Oh, really? Yeah. Do you know that I don't... I wonder if I should say this on my mom had 12 kids know what the girl that is
Starting point is 00:01:47 Crazy. Yeah, and that nuts like I feel like I'll tell you what she deserves the props. I I don't think you've experienced this Charlie. I don't know for sure but once those contractions starts happening it is What do you mean? You don't know I just didn't want to assume that I have a good you think I'd tell you if I Had a kid. I don't know Well, I don't have a kid miles. Well, how did we even get on this topic? We're talking about Christmas for God's sake. I would say I'm more kidding about it. Charlie does not have a child I would say we know about it. Oh
Starting point is 00:02:24 I would say I'm more of a Christmas Eve guy because I feel like by the night of Christmas, Miles, there's already that fear that, oh, no, it's over. The anticipation, all that we built up to, it's done because, you know, there's some crazy bastards that on the twenty six this day. You know what they do? They box it all up and they put it away. That is crazy. The Canadian. I bet there's some people that even do it on new on Christmas day evening.
Starting point is 00:02:52 Yeah. Like, like the dad who like on the last day of vacation, like doesn't enjoy the last day of vacation. She's like, all right, pack it up. You like spend the entire, we don't, we don't, our flight doesn't leave till 6 P.M. I don't care. We're going to go sit at the airport. And so we're not late. Yeah. Yeah. Some crazy man had a dad on Christmas day. They opened all the presents. Like, all right, grab an ornament, put it away. I got the top of the tree. You kids are young. Grab the bottom of the tree. We'll bring it downstairs. Do you think did you get a real tree at your house? No, God, no. Oh, why? You got allergies.
Starting point is 00:03:31 That would require a vacuum. Yeah. And time and all. Did you put up any tree? Oh, yeah. We got a nice flocked tree. What is flocked to me? It's got the appearance that has got snow on it. So it's white. Oh, really? Oh, like, yeah, it gets everywhere. It's got the appearance that has got snow on it. So that's white. Oh really? Oh, like, uh, yeah, it gets everywhere. It's miserable.
Starting point is 00:03:48 Dude, my growing up, my Nana had this aluminum tree from Miro, the Miro company. Ever seen a Miro craft boat? You know, it's a little, uh, it's a little dingy boat. Yeah. Same company, Ottoman Antwok, Wisconsin, the Miro company, aluminum took their aluminum, extra aluminum and made trees out of them. Yeah. And it was a huge thing to have an aluminum tree. If you know someone with aluminum tree, you hold onto that. That's going to be worth some money someday. Just like beanie babies. Yeah. Yeah. In fact, you know, when we're
Starting point is 00:04:19 cleaning out my grandpa's stuff after he passed, found a whole collection of beanie babies. And were any worth anything? No, actually, at the family reunion, there was a box of them and every kid could take two. And they were like throwing them in the mud as hilarious. Anyways, my big question here is, when is it OK to stop? When is it OK to take down the tree? Like, what do we say? Like, I think Boxing Day is a littleing Day, it's a little too soon.
Starting point is 00:04:46 It's a little too soon for the Christmas magic to leave us all. Yeah, I mean, you gotta wait till at least after New Year's. After New Year's you say? Is that when you're gonna be taking down your tree, Miles? Yeah, it won't be before New Year's, I can tell you that. It's still up right now. I go, I go, last year my tree was up until April.
Starting point is 00:05:05 Spring has sprung and then take it down, you know? go. I go. Last year, my tree was up until April. Spring has sprung and then take it down. You know, spring has sprung. I took it down. It goes from a Christmas tree to just a winter tree. You know, if you take the ornaments off, then it's just it's just a tree in your house. Yeah. You know, why why all the fake trees that people put as decor in their house? Yeah. Why are they all just like normal fig trees and olive trees? Why don't people put evergreen trees
Starting point is 00:05:31 in the corner of the room? Exactly, like that's why I was thinking, why not get the whole friggin' root bed in there, put it in a big old pot, and then plant it back out in the yard again after, you know. Yeah, you could do that. You know, just you bring, that's the Christmas tree right there. Well, at some point it's going to be too big for your house. Then you go to the next one. Okay. Next sampling. That's a circle
Starting point is 00:05:54 of life. In my family, we always keep it up until the feast of the three Kings. Yeah. January. Come on. You good Catholic. What day is third? I don't know. I think it's the ninth. I don't know. I was going to say, I don't, I don't even remember that. And I had 13 years of Catholic education. Well, you know, that's why you need a refund. That'd be funny if you could get that. Like, like have your, like you take a test at the end and whatever you get wrong, you get discounted off of all of the money you spent. It's like a rebate. Yeah. Your dad's like, don't learn a damn thing there. Yeah. Um, loophole. Yeah. Um, what's funny about when we did put our tree up this year, this is classic miles and Ann situation here. What
Starting point is 00:06:40 happened? Uh, well, first of all, Ann brings the lights out of the basement and she's just banging those things around, dropping them on the ground, hitting them against stuff. I'm like, you're going to, you're going to make the lights go out. Do you know what I mean? Yeah. You're going to film it. It's going to fall out and it won't work. And if one goes out, they all go out. How would they not fix that? And then she starts wrapping the top of the tree. I'm like, let's plug them in to see if they work. Smart. So plug it in. Works right. So we go around.
Starting point is 00:07:10 Then we do the next rung around there. Plug it in. Second rung doesn't work. Really? Yeah. So we had a half tree. So we had to order some lights off of Amazon. The whole thing. Why can't you just gone to the hardware store? We could have. But it's twenty twenty four and I'm a millennial. So bought it of Amazon. It's the whole thing. Why couldn't you just gone to the hardware store? We could have, but it's 2024 and I'm a millennial. So bought it on Amazon.
Starting point is 00:07:29 There you go. Yeah. Okay. Um, I went last year and cut down a Christmas tree with Randa. Did you? Yeah. And how'd it go? It was cool.
Starting point is 00:07:40 It was fun. Fell a little bad. Can you use a chainsaw or an ax? No, used a saw. Oh yeah. An ax on these little baby trees. No, just halfway at it. Yeah. You're like trying to impress her. You got a flannel on, you know, you oil up beforehand. Sleeveless flannel. Sleeveless flannel.
Starting point is 00:07:59 Oil up the arms. Just walking through with an ax. Oh, I think this one and you choose too big of a tree and it takes you like an hour to chop it down. And I've clearly never chopped a tree down before. Just sweating. Have you ever chopped it? Have you ever chopped? You're like, I thought this is going to be more romantic. I just have a cold wedgie. Yeah. you know from all the up and down of it all She's just standing there like I'm cold. Can we go freezing with a hot chocolate? You know watching like the baby oil freeze to my skin. Yeah, it won't like that. Don't worry. It was just a little sod
Starting point is 00:08:39 Tree farm good tax whoo poll by the way, really? Yeah yeah you it's called farming the tax code from what I do explain I love a good loophole I don't know someone told me that they said the best way to get to get get in on the tax rebates is to get a tree farm I think cuz you plant them and then it takes seven years for them to grow so in that seven years you can be like yeah I kind of need a movie theater on this farm as well. That'll basically a business. If you have a piece of land, plant some trees, call it a tree farm, be Charlie's tree farm LLC. Then you can write off all of the water at that
Starting point is 00:09:17 place because you got to water them. You do have to water the evergreens. Don't need that much, but we don't need to know. Yeah, your soil is dry. So it is. It's dry. And then they like just open up the report of how much rain we got. You know, it's like, what do you have a water park on this thing? And I do. Yes, you do. I do. And but you got to have a water park on your tree farm because how are you going to stay in business in the summer? Exactly.
Starting point is 00:09:43 No one's but I don't know if you guys know this. The market for evergreen trees plummets at right around this time of the year. So you got to. Oh, yeah. Go ahead. You got it. It's like, guys, you won't believe this on the on Black Friday every year. Turkey sales just go.
Starting point is 00:10:02 It's crazy. So you got to you got to diversify your portfolio. Chocolate between the time of November 1st and February 1st just then ramps up again in February. It does. Then it goes. I just like that sound effect that you're doing. We should get a sound effects machine here. That'd be so much fun. You know, like a little frog sound or what do you think, Jared? Jared, we did that for YBR. We didn't, it didn't quite go very distracted. Anytime I'm listening to a podcast that has it, I kind of turn it off.
Starting point is 00:10:39 Right away. You abuse it, you know, you overdo it. And then you kind of, then you're like, I wish dial it back and then you just forget about it. Yeah. And then you kind of then you're like, I wish dial it back. And then you just forget about it. Yeah. And then I don't know. I'm not it's not my thing, but maybe somebody who's good at it can bring it back and bring it back. Good. Yeah. Not us. Well, anyways, miles, it's I'm I'm glad that we're here. I'm glad that you get for Christmas.
Starting point is 00:11:05 Oh, I'm glad you asked that, Miles. I'm glad you asked. You know what I got for Christmas? Pshh! Oh, I missed! Fireworks? Shoot, I missed it. Roman candle?
Starting point is 00:11:21 Geez, I missed again. Cherry bombs? Oh, I missed it. You missed another pheasant. Did you get a shotgun? Yes. Yeah. What time? Oh, you know, a nice one. Yeah. Yeah. Over under semi-auto. I got an over under a little click, Little click drop. Maybe a judge revolver. Ooh, judge revolver.
Starting point is 00:11:48 We should try and hunt pheasants with a judge. Those things are cool, man. Mm-hmm, my cousin's got one. Someone that I know has one, I forget who it is, but I've shot one of those things. They're fun. Geez Louise. What even is, I think it was like it was like
Starting point is 00:12:07 it was a very weird gauge. What was the gauge you put in those? Yeah. What? Four ten. Yeah, it's four tens. Yeah. Yeah. I wonder if someone could do that with like a 12 gauge. That's like how you shoot yourself. It like kicks back. I have a sawed off pistol grip, 12 gauge shotgun. Well, that's illegal.
Starting point is 00:12:27 I'm going to tell the police. Is it really? It's totally illegal. Buy them online. I guess you're right. It's America. Probably, probably not legal. It's like that's as American as evading the tax code.
Starting point is 00:12:40 Yeah, yeah. Yeah. Well, good for you. Where did you get that? Did you saw it off yourself? No. Where'd you get that? Did you saw it off yourself? No. Where'd you get it? That would have been cooler. Got online. Really? Yeah. I, that actually does sound illegal. I don't think it is in North Dakota is probably not in Minnesota. You cross that line. No, no. Well, good for you, miles. Thanks. Well guys, merry late Christmas. And should
Starting point is 00:13:08 we take some callers? Sure. All right folks. Well, we got Tyler from Canada on the line and Tyler is wondering why families bring well why families bring their children to Hooters Tyler. What is so wrong with bringing your family to Hooters? Yeah. Well, a fucking couple of weeks ago I was sitting there at the Hooters, like, you know, it's just absolutely cranking beer as you do. And I was sitting there and I ended up having an arm wrestle. So we cleared off the table and then destroyed a bunch of shit by accident. It was a complete accident, But there was like a fucking six year old watching me as I was doing this absolutely trash.
Starting point is 00:13:47 And I'm like, why the hell did you bring your four and six year old to Hooters to come have a Frankenberg, like go to McDonald's or something for Christ's sake. Whoa, whoa, whoa. Okay, well one, there's a lot to unpack here, Charlie. Yeah. First of all, what is so wrong
Starting point is 00:14:02 with bringing your four and six year old to Hooters? It's a it's a great establishment They got great wings. You think kids don't like wings. They got great wings. They have very friendly staff there Yeah, I'm not sure what the problem is. They have a great atmosphere. What's so wrong with that? I don't know when I was a kid. My mom didn't like bring me to places where she's hitting absolutely everywhere. Oh whoa whoa whoa whoa. What are you talking about? When I go to Hooters I look at the menu and the waitresses eyes. The menu the eyes. Yep. That's it. Sometimes the TV's. Menu eyes TV. Menu eyes TV. What are you talking about this tities thing? I think you're lying there, Charlie.
Starting point is 00:14:48 Really? Oh, now he comes on the podcast, insults parents in Canada for trying to feed their kids some good protein. And now he says I'm lying. Well, parents in Canada, parents everywhere. Plus also they have for a four and six year old, they have high quality milk at this establishment. That's what kids drink. You know, that's a good point. Maybe I'm thinking about this all wrong. I didn't know they serve
Starting point is 00:15:17 milk at Hooters. They do. It's a, it's, it's, it's off menu, but yeah, it is on tap. Oh, fair enough. Kind of like the secret menu where you find like ever clear and stuff like that. Sure. Yeah. What, what do you do in arm wrestling? It sounds like maybe I don't want to say it, but maybe you guys are the problem call it causing a ruckus. It sounds like you destroyed some stuff off of arm wrestling. Oh yeah. We might've knocked over a couple of glasses and they might've been full of beer and I might've, I was walking down the street in Toronto and I'm throwing, I'm from like a small town about an hour outside of Toronto. So I was down there in the big city,
Starting point is 00:15:59 you know, just living my life and I'm sitting there drunk as hell, walking through downtown Toronto and all these people and their Gucci shoes and their Louis Vuitton purses. And I was walking up to them like, Hey, where do I buy pants around here? And that was just not a good thing. Everybody looked at me like I was stupid as hell. Which fair enough. Where do I buy pants around here? Is that what you say? Why were you wearing pants? Yeah, I wasn't wearing beds, but they were soaked in beer because I spilled when the glass broke, all the beer went directly over me. So I was walking through downtown Toronto, just covered in beer.
Starting point is 00:16:31 And then I was walking around trying to find the band. Now can you be honest? Can you be honest with me? Were you arm wrestling? Did you spill beer or did you just have too much to drink and miss the urinal? Because that happens. I had too much to drink and miss the urinal? Because that happens. Oh, I had too much to drink and then decide to arm wrestle. I think that was like the key there.
Starting point is 00:16:49 Did you get kicked out of the Hooters? Is that where this is really coming? No, we left before they got the chance to. We crunched the shots we had on the table and then paid our bills and left before they could kick us out. And then went to the next bar after we found some pants. Did you? I hope you tipped your bartender quite a bit for breaking.
Starting point is 00:17:09 Don't worry. It was, it was a couple of days after payday. Don't worry. Okay. Smart. Um, question for you. Why were you arm wrestling? What happened? Uh, well we just got, we just started talking shit and then somebody said they would beat me in their arm wrestle. And I think, I don't really know what happened. The beer lost the art of Russell. I don't really know who was. Oh my gosh. Okay.
Starting point is 00:17:31 So you're not, I wonder though, if there was some sort of ego thing going on here, Charlie, you know, the friendly staff is watching, you know, you're trying to look like a big man in front of the friendly staff. Some guy calls you out. What do you think? I think I think it was actually my best friend. Your best friend called you out, said, I want. Well, yeah. And then, hmm.
Starting point is 00:17:55 So, yeah, the testosterone was just roaring through this place. And the problem is, is because you're not looking people in the eye. And I think that's where it all starts. You're not looking people in the eye and I think that's where it all starts You're not looking people in the eye and I think you guys start doing that. That's where the soul lives. Okay, you know you can't You can't be doing what you were doing in there is the bottom line Go ahead I was just about to say you're probably right. Go ahead Charlie. Oh, I was just about to say, you're probably right. Go ahead, Charlie. Oh, are you, are you a good arm wrestler? Just out of curiosity. Like, okay. So you don't go into bars typically and arm wrestle. That's not kind of your thing. This is just generally
Starting point is 00:18:37 not the beer caught you on the wrong hour at the wrong moment. And yeah. Yeah. Where did that happen? Okay. You know, I'm thinking about this, bringing your family to Hooters at the wrong moment and yeah. Yeah. Mm hmm. We're basically what happened. OK, you know, I'm thinking about this, bringing your family to Hooters thing, Charlie. Yeah. And I think that the more I think about it, the better the idea is actually. He's hating on it. But I think it's a great place to bring your kids.
Starting point is 00:18:59 I also think that's the case. I mean, you could have like the owl's nest, you know, which is like a little daycare, you know,'s the case. I mean, you could have like the owl's nest, you know, which is like a little daycare, you know, for the kids. And I mean, I think there's a whole side business for Hooters and you know, you have little owls all over the place. Kids love a good owl, you know, and they can go.
Starting point is 00:19:24 That's a very good point. They can put like, I don't know, a big old cooler or something in there and they could just fill it with ice and they could keep bearing kids in there and they could just keep bringing us beers. Yeah, that's that is true. Yeah. Oh, the kid. God, what's the staff going to do if they're, if the kids are bringing you beers? I wonder if they can get smart serves are allowed to serve alcohol. Get, I guess once you smart serves are allowed to serve alcohol. Get, I guess once you hit like 12 years ago. Yeah. Especially in Wisconsin. Yeah. If that's in Wisconsin, that's fine. Yeah. We, we let that,
Starting point is 00:19:57 we let that stuff slide all the time. Um, over in Canada, it's the same way. Uh, uh, the, in the owl's nest, they have like a crayon set with, you know, different pictures that you can color in, you know, they just have balloons and milk jugs. They have helped me out. No, no, I think you're doing just fine. Just fine yourself. Hey, coconuts, you know, watermelons. Yeah. Yeah. They could like, they could call, they could call her in the server's waitresses. Well, see, that's what miles was trying not to say, but I see where you're going with on that. Can I ask you this? That's like, that's what they want to do. Yeah. What's the food situation like? What's
Starting point is 00:20:45 the difference between a Hooters and Canada versus a Hooters in the States? Do they have good wings up there in Canada too? Or is it more like Putin? Lots of Putin. I think there's very few places you can't go in Canada with everywhere. So it sells Putin literally everywhere. Okay. So what's the deal with that? I didn't know that Putin was a Canadian thing. Why do you guys love Putin so much? It's cheese fries and gravy. What's not to love? Like all the best pieces. I got to tell you, Putin is a high risk dish. Okay. You can ruin Putin pretty quick by having bad gravy. And honestly, I'm not a fan of Putinoutine. I know yeah I'm gonna get in
Starting point is 00:21:25 trouble by all the Canadians by saying this but poutine is definitely not my go to. Poutine. You'd rather eat cheese curds on their own. Yeah I mean you can't go wrong with a cheese curd. A deep fried cheese curd. You can't go wrong with it. I haven't had a fried cheese curd. We don't really have that up here in Canada. We eat them with just covered in gravy. Oh, my gosh. Yeah, maybe it's just I'm not a fan of gravy and that's where it comes from. But would you say what's better at the Hooters in Canada?
Starting point is 00:21:58 What's their what's their main dish? Is it poutine or is it wings? I'm pretty sure it's wings or like Budweiser. One of the two. Okay. The main dish Budweiser. I could see it. I'm starting to think Charlie, I think that they should hold an arm wrestling night at Hooters right now. It sounds like you're just having to do it on a table and it sounds more dangerous than if they, you know, you have the owl's nest daycare and then right next door is in the place is a spot for people to arm wrestle. So when their testosterone gets a little bit too high from staring people in the eyes,
Starting point is 00:22:38 they can go and duke it out on an arm wrestling table. That would be over the top. You pay $10 for a VIP spot to go arm wrestling table. That would be over the top miles You paid $10 for a VIP spot to go arm wrestling. Yeah. Oh, yeah, you could add a little side business miles Who do you think we win arm wrestle you or me? Well right now I'm dealing with a little bit of loppers elbow What's that? Do you know what a lopper is? No It's just basically like a big scissors that you cut branches with you know,, I'm talking about, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. I was, uh, just called it loopers. I was, uh, called them over here in Canada. Okay. I was lopping some trees when I was deer hunting and, uh, I don't know what happened. I got some sort of tendonitis in my elbow. So if we were to
Starting point is 00:23:23 arm wrestle, I, it would, it would basically be I would plan hurt. Oh, well that's fine. I didn't care. I don't care if you're hurt. Let's do it. And that just sounds like an excuse to me. And we just, do you have any technique tips for me if I'm an arm wrestle Charlie here, since you do it a lot? Use your way. I don't do a lot of arm wrestling, but I have one buddy who's like half the size of me who just beats the hell out of everybody in arm wrestling. And I have no idea how really. All right, Jake, you want to come hold our hands. And he uses his weight, huh? Well, you got to keep it on the chair cheek on the chair. Okay. I like
Starting point is 00:24:06 that. Hey boys, I got a question for you. Well, hold on. We're in the middle of something right now. Have him ask while we're doing this. Okay. What's your question? All right. So Jake, you're going to be called old Milwaukee ice. And then when you have that up there and goes off, then we go old Milwaukee ice Charlie do you know I've had Milwaukee's best ice old Milwaukee ice. Do you guys serve old Milwaukee ice here? No, she just laughs and says no. Are we ready miles and Game on oh god damn. What are you coming out the gate? Oh he won.
Starting point is 00:24:47 Woo! No, he caught me by surprise. Let's go. I want a rematch. Caught him by surprise. You gave the countdown. I wasn't paying attention, Miles. All right, boys. That's two out of three. That's two out of three. Oh, God. Yeah, two out of three. Let's do it.
Starting point is 00:25:00 I am one and done. Wow. I can't feel my arm. Miles, the mechanical energy there that was that was electric you came out the gate with that I'm almost embarrassed. All right Charlie let's go to Hooters. He's ready. You want to I said some wings. What did you say. Is that where the next podcast is going to be at? Old Hooters? Oh, that's not bad. I have your Hooters out there. We love wings. We love milk. So if you want to sponsor the show, hit us up. Cheese. Always chase. Always. Um, yeah. I, I got a question. What'd you
Starting point is 00:25:39 do with your old pants? Uh, there are the, I think I left them in Toronto to be honest. I never found them. He definitely was themselves. Nobody just leaves their pants somewhere. You'll pump and dump pumped his pants full of piss and dumped them in a garbage somewhere. Yeah. And we're starting to pull calls in this story. I'm going to be honest, Charlie, after I'm coming down from that arm wrestling match, I, I don't know if I've, unless it was clearly a weaker opponent, I don't know if I've ever won an arm wrestling match. So that should make you feel good. I don't know what it is. I think you, it wasn't that you're stronger than me. That's for sure. You give me a place to stand. I'll move the world. Charlie. It's a, that's a quote about leverage. That's for sure. You give me a place to stand. I'll move the world Charlie. It's a that's a quote about leverage
Starting point is 00:26:26 Life's all about You yeah, here's what happened you you got me right out the gate and that that's actually a good tip for arm wrestling You got to go boom right out the gate because as soon as you lose that leverage that leverage your you're done So, you know and I want to say I leverage that leverage you're you're done so you know when I want to say I Underestimate my opponent. I did yeah, maybe next time you'll estimate me well Overestimate I know next time you're gonna estimate me instead of overestimate me. I loppers I always call them Snippers
Starting point is 00:27:00 Yeah, same same church different pew. Okay hmm, I got Snippers elbow. So that's I was snipping and you know, that's why I lost Tyler. I got a question for you. Why not just go, why not just go like arm wrestle at Applebee's why, or why do you got to go to Hooters? I've never been to an Applebee's before. Supposedly there is one down here. I thought it was an American thing for like a long time ever, but I found out like a town like half hour, 40 minutes from me actually does have an Applebee's and I really want
Starting point is 00:27:34 to go there. Charlie. This could be a fun game. All right. Do you have these restaurants in Canada? Oh, that's fine. Do you guys, yeah. Applebee's I believe so now, but only a couple of locations. Okay. Chili's no twin. Twin peaks. There's a place called twin peaks. Like it's like an expect inspection company expects houses. Not what I'm talking about, but good to know. How about the, uh, tilted kilt? Nope. Wait, miles. What did I never been to a twin peaks or a tent that killed what's what's
Starting point is 00:28:17 twin? It's a, it's the mountain version of Hooters. Just imagine if Hooters was set in Montana and or the Rocky Mountains. I see. I see. Okay. Lumberjack version of Hooters. What do they serve there? And they have great wings as well. Do they? Yes.
Starting point is 00:28:37 Okay. Yeah. And Tilted Kilt. I think it's the Irish version of Hooters. Kilts Scottish Scottish. Scottish. They're all the same. That's all right. You know, I might not be stronger than you, Miles, but I sure am smarter. And that that's where that's where I'm going to hang my hat today.
Starting point is 00:28:57 See, I'm not wearing a hat now because it's hanging on geography. What my geography? Yeah What about it? I've seen all these podcasts of you like and like knowing everywhere in Switzerland. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah No, wait, where are you? Where are you living right now? I'm living in a township called Clarington right now, about an hour east of Toronto. Clarington, is that what you said? Clarington, Canada?
Starting point is 00:29:29 Oh yeah, no, I've been there. I've been there. You know what Clarington's all about. It's just north of Scots from Radford, right? You ever been to Radford? Oh, it's pretty close, yeah. I've been up there drinking, playing hockey once or twice. Yeah, and sometimes I go fishing over at Locke Green.
Starting point is 00:29:48 Is it a lake? Yeah. So Locke is how they say lake in Canada. Oh, God, sorry. Good walleyes and Locke Richardson. Oh, my gosh. Forget about it. The perch there. Yeah. Now we're cooking. You ever been seeing salmon fishing?
Starting point is 00:30:03 Salmon fishing. Yeah, sure. Have you. And where did you go? Salmon. Where'd you go? Salmon fishing at Charlie? Well, you know, you got to find a good river system. And so sometimes what I'll do is I'll go down over to the Ottawa River. And if you hit it just north, just south, the sand bay north Castleford. There's some good salmon spots right there.
Starting point is 00:30:27 But if you go up north of Scalch a little bit more, okay. I'm talking the Ottawa River right by Bay Crawford Lake. Right down. I'm pretty sure that's in like Quebec. Yeah, it's in Quebec. They got good salmon in Quebec back. I've heard. And it's Quebec. The Quebec, the Quebec people come down to where I am to come fish. Oh, well, they just don't know. I mean, that's cause I'm not up there. They don't know where
Starting point is 00:30:55 to fish. Yeah. They don't know. They don't know where, but no, I'll tell you. I'll tell you that Quebec, Ontario border, right? Just over by Dardanelles. I mean, my God, I got to tell you, they know what they're talking about. And if you head over to Steamboat Bay, you are in for a treat because that is a good bed and breakfast right there. Yeah. Oh, I believe it. Yeah. So anyways, maybe I'll see over there in the Portage to Fort at some point. Oh, fucking right. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:26 Did you imagine if you actually ran into him there one time? Oh, my gosh. Yeah. We I go over to Murph's chip stand sometimes and chips, by the way, in Canada. That's fries. They it's fries, but they don't call it fries. They call it chips. The River Club Portage is beautiful. Fat Boys take out.
Starting point is 00:31:47 If you guys are hungry, go over to Fat Boys. So yeah, I highly recommend it, guys. Oh yeah, I got a buy, sell, trade for you boys. Oh yeah, what is it? I'm looking to find me a mechanical bowl. Oh, you sound like a guy who's looking to buy a mechanical bull. Yeah. But I can't really afford what I've been searching in the old dirty Facebook marketplace. And they're like anywhere from like a couple of thousands to
Starting point is 00:32:14 like 20,000. So like my budget's like a case old Milwaukee and like 20 bucks. Yeah. I think you're probably then not in the market for mechanical bull. It sounds like I think you could get a ball that doesn't move a broken mechanical potentially. You could find a mechanic and a bull, but I don't know if you can get both of them and you might have to do a little bit more for that mechanic than that case of beer. You might have to drink that case of beer and then do something you're going to forget. And then maybe you'll get yourself a mechanics. Are you looking for a mechanics bowl or are you looking for a mechanical bowl? I can't
Starting point is 00:32:52 tell you might have to kind of change. Your budget might be more than mechanics bowl. That's true. Damn mechanics are expensive over here. There's like a, like a, one mechanic I was talking to, he says, just to look at a car and diagnose it, it's $130 an hour. Yeah. I mean, that's a supply and demand, Charlie, right? There's not a lot of mechanics, not a lot of, he knows what he's got. You know, he's clearly got a lot of business cause he don't want to be looking at your car if he's charging that much. Yeah. Well, I'm lucky enough where I got a shed that's got like 18 different holes in the roof, but under all the beer cans and beer cases, there is lots of random parts and I've fixed so many different things while searching through cases of
Starting point is 00:33:35 beer and I found, oh, there's an alternator there. That might fucking work. And we just bolt it back up and normally tends to work. Wow. We're you just own a shed with a bunch of beer and parts in it? Yeah, yeah, my dad used to be in a snowmobiling and he's a big fisherman and that,
Starting point is 00:33:51 so we got all kinds of parts for the boat because he's kind of cheap as hell like I am and we just kind of collect parts and search through the piles of beer cans and then we have enough to put shit back together most of the time. Well, and then I wonder if you got enough to make a mechanical bowl out of those. How are you going to be?
Starting point is 00:34:06 I see these, I see these boys on Instagram or Facebook and they took like a coil out of a car, like a spring and they welded it to a tool, like a rim of a car. And they put like a big, like 50 gallon drum on top of it. So it just goes in every direction. I'm like, man, that's what I might have to do. Cause I can't afford me one of them mechanical bolts that you should absolutely do that. And you should take a video of it and send it to us. I feel like I'm going to have to do that. Yeah, no, that's definitely it. Make sure you put a lot of padding between the coil and the barrel though. You don't want it popping through cause then, you know, you're getting the mechanics pull again. You know what I mean? Yeah. No, it may make sure that's welded on good, whatever it is and put a steel plate between you and that coil end. Cause
Starting point is 00:34:57 I've seen some videos and I know how that ends. What kind of stuff are you watching online? Don't worry about miles. Don't worry about it. Well, Tyler, we appreciate you taking our call today and Hey, just keep the arm wrestling and check. You don't need to be breaking glasses and it's a family establishment over there at Hooters, whether you like it or not. And so you got to you got to respect, respect the the facility. It's very true. I felt I felt very bad the next way. And I'm happy I felt very bad the next day.
Starting point is 00:35:34 And I'm happy I kept him again. Thirty bucks after that, probably paid the glass in for the waitress drinks that night. Thirty bucks. Something tells me that you might want to revisit that place with a nice 20 spot that might take care of it the next go round but anyways it's a thought that counts and you and send us a video that mechanical bowl right oh fucking right I will all right well be good tyler thank you thank you good Keeper. Yeah. Keeper trucking boys. All right. We will. My guy. We'll see you soon. All right. Let's do a rematch. No, God. I know I wasn't ready. I wasn't ready. You counted it down. Do I was. I was. You got that loppers on the left loppers elbow. Yeah, so I Don't know. Hey pretty good idea actually for that mechanical bowl. That is a good idea
Starting point is 00:36:31 You know a barrel a drum. I got a drum actually do you I don't have any other parts So I feel like how would you get one going? You know? What like some that moves the spring is all just a little one of these something goes like this Mm-hmm. Okay, so on top of this put a wheel and Then just a an engine to move the wheel. We do it inside with a lawnmower. We just both die of carbon monoxide God we didn't think that one through. Yeah Well, so we take another caller? Let's do it. We have Eli from Nevada on the phone and let's just say Eli is a chronic low baller
Starting point is 00:37:16 on Facebook marketplace. And the first question I have for you, Eli is, are you a middle child? Yeah, right in the middle. Yeah, that's up. Yep. We know it. A little of seven. Middle of seven. Oh, yeah. You got some chronic middle child issues. He's mass produced. He is mass produced.
Starting point is 00:37:38 Thank you for taking my joke there, Miles. I like that. Now, yeah, you like give us the backstory here. You just on Facebook marketplace, just just lowball that. No. Yeah. Eli, give us the back story here. You just on Facebook marketplace, just just low balling people to get kicks. What's going on? Yeah. So growing up, we did like broad sales and stuff. And I think that's where I got the edge for it. And then when I got older and got a phone, I got marketplace and started flipping stuff.
Starting point is 00:38:07 phone, I got marketplace and started flipping stuff. Like to me, kind of marketplace is kind of like a social media, like Instagram or something. I just, it's kind of like a Facebook. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. Just like Facebook. You're a marketplace. You fancy yourself a marketplace influencer. In other words. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Exactly. I target my reviews up and stuff, you know? Okay. Well, it doesn't sound like you're doing the behavior to get your reviews up. Well, I haven't gotten any bad ones, so I don't know if that just means, I don't really know what that means, but okay. Well, tell us, tell us the scheme you got running with the low balling. So sometimes it's for things I want. And sometimes it's for things I just see on there. And then
Starting point is 00:38:56 I just kind of send a comment. I had one recently. My fiance's family was looking for an inflatable Christmas decoration. And they had one in our town. So they messaged them and they were trying to get them down. So they were at like $180, I think was their bottom dollar. So I came in with a... I came in hard. I'll offer them $100 so that their deal at $150 would be good, would look better. And they messaged me and said, absolutely not. Bottom dollar is $155. So I went back to my fiance and I was like, okay, I got him on the $155 55. I can go get it for you guys for one 55, even though he told them one eight, but that's kind of, that was a recent one.
Starting point is 00:39:52 Hold on though. You're, you're, you are, you're, you're not being totally truthful with us. Cause when you called us and left a voicemail, you said I low ball people, even when I don't have any interest in buying their things, I'll also look at anything in the entire country and just low ball people. And then if someone doesn't like my offer and is rude about it, then I'll be a little bit rude back. So that's what we want to talk about. Yeah. This extends beyond your Christmas decorations. We done our homework here. Okay. We listened to what you told us. Okay. Okay. I, okay. I'll get on that. Cause that is diabolical, man. You're just looking up random stuff and just low ball and taking up people's time. This is reverse inflation is what it is. So a lot of times I'll low
Starting point is 00:40:55 ball people, the real value of what I think it is. So I think they're like, I'm like, bro, there's no way you're going to get it. Any like that much money for it. And I just want to see their reactions or I'll read their description and say no trades and I'll offer them trades. I see what he's doing here a little bit, Charlie. He's kind of like a, he's a troll. He's well, he's keeping people in check a little bit of a Robin hood type vibe. You see someone that's a little bit greedy with their listing and you want to, you're doing work for the people to lower the price so that the person that ends up buying it doesn't get ripped off. Robin from the rich to feed the poor because of all the rich people selling stuff on Facebook
Starting point is 00:41:41 marketplace. I like that. Yeah. Now, I know I know you're stuck pretty heavy with some of these messages. Do you have any favorites from your archive that you can read to us? I'm looking through some right now. Yeah, we would like your time.
Starting point is 00:42:00 Yeah, we would specifically like one where the guy was a little bit rude to you and you were a little bit rude back Okay, here's one. You know like those razor crazy cards the razor crazy cards It's like drift cards. Oh, yeah. Yeah, those are cool. Those are fun so there was one of those but the guy did a He like made it into a tank. So it looked
Starting point is 00:42:27 like a full airsoft tank. So I messaged him and he said, not a cent lower than $2,000. So I messaged him and said basically F you and I was like, I was like, well, you really think someone might buy that for $2,000 when I basically put a piece of junk you wouldn't he came back. Oh, go ahead. No, you go court. Go for it. Oh yeah. He just came back and said like, well, if you don't got the money, then, uh, then get out of my marketplace listing or something. I like that actually. Have you ever gotten into a fight off of this situation? Has it gone back and forth where you're losing sleep over the next thing you're going to
Starting point is 00:43:35 say to this guy? Sometimes I'll, so we'll like message back a little bit. And then let's say like a month later, marketplace will like notify you if they lowered the price. So I'll get, it'll be like, I'll mark message someone, let's say in September and it'll marketplace to say this person lowers the price by a hundred dollars. So I'll go back and say, what's my offer? Is my offer good now? Do they, does it ever work? It's actually gotten, we actually bought a dirt bike from my, um, one of my friends doing that. Nice. Like he was like, yeah, actually, you know what? It actually, it actually would
Starting point is 00:44:21 work and you can come pick it up. So we went and picked it up. Well, there you go. What are the top five tips or top three? What are the top tips for lowing somebody on Facebook Marketplace? Yeah, you're a professional low baller. What are the tips to the low ball? Okay, I think first of all, the number one tip is have a buddy who has Facebook marketplace accounts. You offer them a, a little bit lower than the price you actually want to pay and see what he said. Then if
Starting point is 00:44:55 he says no, then you get your buddy to go on there, message him and complete like totally low bomb, like by a lot, like by at least half. And then then your doctor looks a lot better. You got a low ball tag team going. Yeah. A little sting operation. I like it. I like it. Yeah. We call that a low ball, low balling, the low baller. Yeah. Low ball, the low baller. That's again, this seems kind of scummy. Yeah, I know, but I kind of liked the art of it. Okay. So you get a buddy. You got the buddy system going. What else? Sometimes you can get them when they, if it's been on there for like so long, it'll be like, this was
Starting point is 00:45:36 listed a year ago and then you can hit them. You can kind of hit them with a little bit of a like, well, since it hasn't sold in a year, would you take that? And then then sometimes we'll do that. Yeah. And you can word it, Charlie, kind of like, you know, I'll take it off your hands. Oh yeah. Like this is burning a hole in your garage. I should just take it off your hands.
Starting point is 00:45:59 Patronize the product a little bit. Like, I'm doing you a favor. Yeah. And do kind of the thing he did insult the product a little bit. Like, ah, yeah, probably hasn't sold cause you can clearly tell there's no tread left on those tires. Yeah. So I'll probably, I could take it off your hands for you. A dig and drop, dig the product, drop the offer. That's good. Um, in, in doing, uh, this, I'm doing you a favor by taking this off your hands.
Starting point is 00:46:30 It's kind of like, uh, you know, like, uh, how, um, how those sort of douchebags hit on, um, people at the bar, you know, they'll like kind of, uh, they'll kind of like, remember when it was big, what was the name of that book? There was some book, the game or whatever came out. You ever heard of that? No, it was a really douchey book about how if you're trying to go out with someone, you like insult them a little bit at the beginning to drop their confidence. You know, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:46:59 There was some movie or a book about a few years ago, but it seems like the same tactics are applying here to Facebook marketplace. Yeah. What is what is like, have you gotten though, like a dude, like people get in fights on Facebook marketplace. Have you ever had that where you felt bad about it? Like you've done, you went, you utilized your powers a little bit too poorly. Do you have a scenario like that? No, I've never actually, cause I'll only show up if someone, if I actually want to buy it or I, we kind of agree on a price. I've never actually gotten an actual fight. Yeah. Um, okay. I kind of got us off track. All right. So you got tag team, you tag team. Well, here's the, here's the question. I got a question for him. Have you ever not low
Starting point is 00:47:52 balled someone and, or after talking to them, you paid more than what you offered. Oh yeah. I have done that. And that's what we call Charlie, the old swindlers trick on the other side You know you bring up about how your wife's got cancer or something like that make the guy feel bad These this money is gonna go towards hospital bills and all of a sudden they're paying full price So the low baller just got high balled. Yeah. Yeah, cuz for every low baller out there There is a high baller correct and when you sell stuff, are you a high baller? Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. I'm I'm firm on my deal. I like that this all started like your your origin story.
Starting point is 00:48:36 He has some flea markets, you know, is here all origin story. Well, he's more of a villain. Charlie, what's your villain? What's your villain origin story? It was honestly, garage sales, just walking around the streets like garage sales, like rolling up to you sign on the side of the road and you pull over and walk up and then you can haggle with people there. The art of the haggle, the art of the haggle. This is he got, he got all of his knowledge from haggling old ladies in their garage. Who is the hardest tagger in the garage? So was it the old ladies?
Starting point is 00:49:10 Um, no, it was actually the younger, like kind of middle-aged guy to his wife was probably making him get rid of stuff, but he actually didn't want to get rid of it. So he was, yeah, those guys will not let their stuff go cheap. It's like Michael Scott with his neon beer sign. Oh yeah. It's not for sale. I look there. There's a check in the bellied up bingo for a Michael Scott reference right there. We don't have one of those three episodes. Well, okay. So I think we do appreciate the fact that, um, that, you know, you're coming clean with us on you being professional baller. I guess, I guess he confessed to us. This was a hidden bellied up confession, which means miles. We need the end by giving him
Starting point is 00:49:57 his P his penance. Yes. Yep. Yep. You didn't know, but you were in the confessional the whole time and now we are going to give you your penance miles. What, what, what prayers does he need to do? I think he needs to do a glory B or two, a glory B or two. Okay. Maybe, maybe a one nice scene creed. One. Ooh, that's a deep cut. Not the apostles creed. That's cutting it short. The nice scene. I see the whole thing. Cause you gotta be nice. Senor to people. Yes you do. And I'm, and if you don't do these things, well you better because otherwise you're going to be condemned to a, when you hit the age of 40, you're going to just have low balls because you're a low
Starting point is 00:50:43 baller. All right Balls or you want to do the penance? The penance Well, I think what we should give one more thing one more thing for his penance He's gonna say those prayers then what Charlie I want you to find the next thing you see going to say those prayers then what Charlie? I want you to find the next thing you see. The next thing you see on Facebook marketplace, you got to do the Midwest barter on it and say, Oh, I couldn't give you a $50 for that. That's real nice. I got to give you a 60 at least. So that's one. And my additional penance is you have to list something on Facebook marketplace that you don't want to list.
Starting point is 00:51:27 And you have to accept the first offer that you get. So if you get a, yeah, that's your penance. If you get a low ball offer, you have to take it. And we want to see receipts. Otherwise, you're going to be seeing them balls down by your ankles. You're going to be playing hacky sack with yourself. Do they wobble? Do they throw? Can you time in the not? Can you time in a ball?
Starting point is 00:51:53 Can you throw them over your shoulder like a continental soldier? Do your balls hang low? But a dumb bum. Those are your balls clicking together. Anyways, thank you for calling in here. We appreciate your confession and good luck out there on the Facebook marketplace. Thank you. Watch out for deer. All right. You as well. We'll see you now. Man, it's you know, like this, the little like secret societies and in society.
Starting point is 00:52:23 Yeah. Like the sub Facebook marketplace is definitely one of those. Oh yeah. It used to be Craigslist. Yeah. Now Craigslist is a whole different type of people. And now you got this subset of people that hang out on Facebook marketplace all day and they know the tricks of the trade, the ins and outs. I mean you got inside jokes with people in Facebook Marketplace. You know, I'll be honest with you. I've never used Facebook Marketplace. I've only used Craigslist. Really? Yeah. I've always been very loyal to the Craigslist.

You know what I love about New Year's? What do you love about New Year's? I love cutting a big old hole in the ice and going polar plunging. And you know what feels the best after a nice cold dip into a freezing lake? I don't know. What is an ice cold glass of tippy cow? I see what you did there. This is the Wisconsin drink after you tip it on back or after you celebrate the new year cold
Starting point is 00:55:34 as hell. You tip it on back to the tippy cow. Cause I gotta tell you, nothing beats an ice cold ice bath. What gets more Midwest than jumping in a frozen lake? No, listen, I know there are some people that are like, I don't like to be that cold. Well, fine, fine, you pansies. I got one for you too. You take the tippy cow and you put it inside your hot cocoa. Oh, that's a really good idea. I didn't think you were gonna come up
Starting point is 00:55:58 with that kind of an idea. Thank you, Miles, or your hot cafe. You call it a latte, tipee. And that's a tippy cow latte for those of you who don't speak French. And it is a beautiful alternative to the cold glass of tippy cow.
Starting point is 00:56:15 However you bring in the new year, make sure you include tippy cow in the deal ladies and gentlemen. Tip it on back to the tippy cow, Miles, cheers to you. Charlie actually. Yes. So we have a voicemail hotline now.
Starting point is 00:56:29 That's pretty cool. And, uh, we actually got a voicemail listen to to end the episode here. Hell yeah. Let's hear it. All right. Here we go. Hey there. Uh, I apologize for the road noise, uh, in advance.
Starting point is 00:56:42 So it can be kind of bad. I'm traveling, uh, for well, me, but, uh. But I'd like to talk to you about, sorry, I forgot my name and age too. I'm Tyler, 18 years old, just just left the house. But one of the things that I got is, you know, I take it that you guys are present hunters. I love the roadhunt for ditch chicken, Pat. Although I guarantee you that you guys are pheasant hunters. I love the rodent rodents for ditch chicken, Pat. Although I guarantee you that you have never seen a black mutant pheasant. It's a mutation in the pigment of the pheasant and it turns it from a brown and you know the beautiful browns and the tans, the reds and the blues and just a pheasants. And it turns it into completely jet black.
Starting point is 00:57:28 And in some rare cases, it'll make the purple, blue, and green. It looks exactly like a peacock. You can look it up right now and you will be blown away. Wow. So here's the kicker. I got one, it's Pax Dermis. I got it a couple of months ago,
Starting point is 00:57:43 like upon my graduation. I got 27 inch tail feathers on this sucker too. So I got pretty lucky there. So I want to know, sorry, that's just a mic. But I'd like to know what's your thoughts on that? I think it'd be kind of neat to hear your response. I know that whenever I say a black peasant, people look at me like I'm crazy and maybe I am especially like it as that much, but hell, I know it's something that you don't
Starting point is 00:58:13 find very often. I haven't found much information on it, but I'd like to hear your thoughts. Anyway, take care guys. Watch for deer. This guy, this guy just taxidermy to crow. Yeah, I got it. He got it for his graduation. They just told him it was a black pheasant. No, Charlie, we looked it up and he's telling the truth. Look at that thing. I like how he talked about how rare it was.
Starting point is 00:58:37 And then and then he's like, yeah, I got it hanging on my wall right now. Well, so my question is, do you think that he he shot it? I don't know. It was unclear. It was unclear. What a graduation gift. I mean, seriously, they get a black pheasant. Or, I mean, I thought he was being. Oh, my. Look at that one. That actually looks like a peacock. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:59:02 That's wild, man. Yeah. I imagine is a peacock. Yeah. That's wild, man. Yeah. I imagine it is a wild bird. They're actually, they were brought over from China. Do you realize that that all the pheasants were brought over? Yeah. So here's a question for you, Charlie. What would you do? You see black pheasant get up in front of you. You got your new shotgun that you got for Christmas. I'd shoot at a second. It would live. It would. Yeah. You're like, what's the why does it matter if I shoot at it?
Starting point is 00:59:30 I'd miss it for sure. I yeah, I'm not very good at pheasant hunting, but I mean, that is almost too beautiful to call a ditch chicken, Charlie. I know. Would you call it instead? Hmm. Not a ditch chicken. I'd call it like, uh, like, um, ditch caviar. I wonder if it tastes any better. You know,
Starting point is 00:59:53 I bet it, I bet it tastes same cause it's all the same on the inside. You know, well, we do know that miles. No, I don't know. You don't know it. So don't just go throwing that out there like that. I don't, you know, I, I probably shoot at it. I definitely miss it. I'd actually be curious if that was okay to shoot at, you know, like if you ever see a white deer, you're not shooting an albino deer. Was that illegal or just a no, no, it's a, you don't do that. It's agreed upon that. You don't do it. Yeah. Yeah, the gentleman's agreement Yeah, the rare things you just you let them go and then you know, but
Starting point is 01:00:32 You know, I let everything go any I wonder if they could just breed them that way I think they can this one looks to be in a facility of some sort so I bet you they've someone at some point has found these things and and Made them what you know watch them make love and have the babies. Yeah, it's kind of like oh look at that one That's an interesting moment the brown coat there. Oh, that's that's a pigeon It's a decoy too, yeah, it's just a cartoon Well, it looked weird. Yeah. Well, yeah.
Starting point is 01:01:08 I mean, I guess it could be a ditch peacock. Ditch cock. I like that. Yeah, I like that cock. Yeah. So it's not real. I'm road hunting for ditch cocks. Yeah. Careful where you say that.
Starting point is 01:01:21 I might give someone the wrong impression. Yeah. You see these albino pheasants to Charlie? No, I never. Oh, that's just chicken. Those are chickens. You know what that is? That's a what's that cartoon chicken, that big cartoon one that walks around chit chat. Foghorn leg, foghorn. That's exactly what I like. Oh, you knew that right off the top. Hey, wouldn't that be funny? You're like you buy that thinking that you bought an actual chicken and you're like, why is it laying eggs? Just not getting any eggs. This actually looks like the corn flakes guy. Yeah.
