Bellied Up - Minnesota Vs. Wisconsin #85

Episode Date: January 25, 2024

In this episode, we're at Chub's Pub in Fargo, ND. The first caller has a significant issue with how Wisconsin labels its highways and believes Minnesota is superior (Charlie isn't too happy with that). (25:50) The next caller is a pianist who lives in NYC and needs tips on how to track down other hunters in the Big Apple. (53:28) The last caller is in a hairy situation with a nice gal he met.

All right, ladies and gentlemen, welcome back to another bellied up episode. Me and Charlie are here at Chubbs Pub here in Fargo, North Dakota. We're chubbing it up at Chubbs Pub, ladies and gentlemen. We're not bellied up to a bar, but we're bellied up to the table in the back room. A couple of high tops. Couple of high toppers. Why do they call them high tops, Miles? Because they're not low tops. Oh, top of the table is higher than a regular table, Charlie. Interesting. I thought someone was trying to make a table while they were high and they're like, I screwed it up. What's what do you like about

Chubb's pub? We got a little history lesson. I know you're kind of a history guy. I'm a bit of a history buff, Miles. And leading up to this, we learned that Chubb's Pub was established in 1966 as a piano bar, an upscale piano bar. But then the, do you think it still looks like an upscale piano bar, Charlie? Well, I do think that there might be a scale somewhere, but it is broken and no piano in sight. Nope. Miles, the walls are branded though. We got some cattle brands on the wall. That's what I like about this place. They had actually had a cattle branding party here. They did. So students and farmers from around the area came in, brought their cattle brand and they branded the wall behind us. The wood wall. Now, it's

a unique idea. I've never heard of that before. I think more bars are doing that, but safely doing that. Yeah. And do not tell your insurance provider about it. Yeah. And certainly don't tell to Jack as is with a podcast, we're going to mention that in the intro of all things. Now, Miles, you have some news. Yeah, I suppose it's been since I announced that I'm going to be a dad. We haven't had a podcast. So yeah, so looking at father of one so far, unborn, unborn. Yeah, we're doing in June of 2024. So okay, we're right in the thick of it. Let me do the math. So June, let's back that train up. Okay, May, April, March, February, January, December, November, October, September was when you were getting lucky. Good man. Not to brag. Not confirmed

yet. The baby isn't born. Yeah. Still just pictures on a screen. But once that baby is born, confirm one time sex. Have her right here. Good for you, dude. We're all very proud. You could still be a virgin Charlie. Am you still are. Yeah. For sure. Well, that's really nice. Now, do we know boy girl, boy girl, boy girl? Having a boy. You're having a boy. Wait, is that new news? No. Was that out there? Did I miss that? You missed that. How did I miss that? How the fuck did? How did I miss that? Cause last time I talked to you, you didn't know. No. So in between, since I saw you last. Yeah.

And now we found out and actually posted it online. Oh. You know how you know what your real good friends are. And we talked about it on Ubetech radio as well. You know how you know your true friends? Your true friends. Do not find out these important things on social media cause they're not following you for the clout. They find out. Yeah. And that's what I like about our friendship, Miles.

I do too. I actually, it doesn't bother me that you didn't know. I kind of like, yeah. I mean, you know, it's almost better that you don't know. That's really exciting. A boy. Now, were you stoked when you found out you were having a boy or were you hoping for a girl yourself? I feel like you're a guy who wants a boy. Yeah, I wanted to. I didn't really care to be honest. Sure. You'll love it. Yeah. What I had said on the other podcast was it was exciting. And then there was this veil of responsibility that fell over me of having a boy. Right? You have a girl. It's

like you and your wife are kind of raising the kid. She's got to deal with all of the feminine things of raising a girl. You're kind of just chilling. As long as you're there, I think girls end up, you know, you don't have to do as much as a dad with a son. Think of all of those things I have to teach him. Oh man, not only that, like your dad taught you a lot of stuff. Now, is there something your dad didn't teach you that you want to learn in the next few months here so you can teach your son as soon as he comes out the deal? Honestly, that's, there's not anything that comes on to mind, right? My dad did a pretty good job. No, and I think your dad did a wonderful job. I think my parents

should have done a better job teaching me about how taxes and stuff work. See, I knew there was one thing taxes. Have you been audited yet? Oh, yeah. My kids are going to, by the time they're 18, they're going to know the ins and outs of how taxes work. They're going to know write offs. And I'm not going to do it. My account, I'm going to make a meeting with my accountant and then I'm going to show up and just shove my kids in the room and then leave. And then they have to explain it to them. Yeah. Because I don't, I still don't know how they work. It's a magical process, man. Intentionally so, I think, you know, intentionally so. The big tax is really big tax is screwing the pooch for all the everyone else out there.

Hey, there's a pool table in this bar, Miles. Maybe you think that's messed up that the for the second thing I thought after having a boy was I'm going to have to teach him about taxes. Well, I think it just shows what's on your mind. I got to make sure it doesn't grow up to be someone who is, you know, 36 years old, kind of on organized. Not like this. This is sounding like a Charlie description. I got two things in and you knew that where I was going.

Well, you start off with 36. That's a very specific age. Are you 36? Yeah. Oh, weird. I worked out that way. Odd. That's very odd. Are you going to, is it important that you teach your kids the importance of paying what they owe or trying to evade what they may not need to pay? You mean tax-wise? Yeah. I think I will present them with all of the available tools tax-wise and then they can

make a decision as long as it's a legal decision. Wow, that's great. Yeah. That's great. And the fun thing about taxes is there's a lot of gray area, you know, there's a lot of little wiggle room and sometimes you might wiggle your way a little too long to the, no, there will be no wiggling in that direction. Okay.

Family. All right. Yeah. Lay the hammer down. Very happy for you guys. Mouse was in. I'm excited about the boy or was she hoping for a girl? I shouldn't really carry there, but we were both excited for you guys. And my last name lives on. Yeah, was the first one in my generation with this last name to have a boy. So I got the job done. Hey, high fives dude. Put it up

top. All right. Your family's got a lot of chances. Oh, yeah. I'm already done. Yeah, I know. There's a few boys. There's a few swinging. How many brothers do you have? I have three brothers to have kids. One has two boys. There you go. You don't, you don't gotta do, you're chilling. I mean, I've been chilling. We know I've had the slack picked up for me. You know, yeah. Well, I'm really a reoccurring theme. What's that? Having my slack picked up. You know what, Miles? It's not, we're starting off on the wrong foot here. Sorry, sorry. Sorry. I'm, I, hey, I'm excited. Gonna be a dad. Yeah. I can't wait to see what you teach them. You know, hey, yeah.

What would you teach my kid if, if you, if you have the opportunity, it depends if you make me Godfather or not. Let's say I do. Okay. Let's say, no, that's a bigger thing. I would teach him a few different. I would teach him the proper way to shop on Craigslist. You know, I would teach him that you can't just fall in love with a snowmobile and expect it to work. Just because it worked the one time you test wrote it, you gotta check a few more things out. That's actually great advice.

And he's gonna be shopping on Craigslist a lot because I'm not going to be just buying him a snowmobile. Yeah. Actually, I was curious about that, you know, because, you know, you're you're you've done well for yourself miles and has two, you know, is your kid going to get a job once they turn 12 years old? I don't know about 12, but hopefully they have a job before they leave the house. Yeah. I'm hoping we'll see if my dad's still doing his concrete business because I'd love for him to work concrete little tackle box. Yeah. Yeah. Learn the tricks of the trade. Learn how to work hard. Also learn how to not be as a human.

You know, there's a lot of people working there making questionable decisions. Got to learn from experience. That is, you got to work in the job. Maybe you don't want forever and meet the people you don't want to be in order to figure out where you want to go. And the advantage too is when their vocabulary gets expanded by working there, you can blame the job and not because I use colorful language. So you're just looking for a long game. Yeah, I got most coverage. Got news for you guy. One of my earliest memories for first grade

kindergarten. Actually, I was on the bus. I was teaching my buddy Eric how to say the F word, which I just learned and he was teaching me the SHI word. So you're going to have to find that cover long before he's 16. We'll see. Kids these days, man, kids these days or those days. Anyway, congratulations. I'm excited for you. Thank you, Charlie. It's great. Should we should we do some callers or? Yeah, we should probably find some with some parenting advice now that I'm a parent. I know all the answers. So should be able to get pretty good advice now that

I have a bun in the oven. Yeah, you know, just life keeps you humble, which I love. Yeah. Thanks, Joe. Yeah, you bet. Should we take some college? Let's do it. Welcome to the belly up podcast. Who is on the line with us today. This is Dan. Hi, Dan. How are you? Good. Oh, what are you up to, Dan? Not much. Hang it out. You at work? No, I just got home from work. Where do you work at? I have a quality assurance. Dan, you're a man, a few words. I'm going to tell you that what you said. You're what in insurance? Oh yeah. Take your time, Dan quality, quality insurance quality. Okay. So you're, I don't want to say it, but you, you're a little bit of a narc. Oh yeah. Basically it's a glorified term for an auditor. Okay. Oh, quality assurance.

Yeah, not insurance. I thought he worked at quality insurance. I was like, how'd you come up with that name? Quality stuff. Cool, Dan. Well, hey man, belly up to the bar. Tell us what's on your mind, guy. So I live in central Minnesota most of my life.

And I'm from up by Fargo Moorhead and gone to Wisconsin a few times and the road system there. What's up with the letters, Charlie? Oh, all right. Listen. Okay. So you're wondering why you're wondering why Wisconsin has letters for street names instead of numbers. I was traveling in the country of south of Madison and these people were giving me directions to get on to J and then turn on the K and then turn on the KK and then turn back on to J. And it's like, why can't I just stay on J? All right. Now Dan, just listen up here. So are you telling me you were trying to go from J to K to KK? And did they tell you

to go to back from J East on J and then North on K? Or did they say, or Dan, did they say go from J to K and then L and then O and then L, which stands for just kidding. LOL. Oh, Dan, I got you. I didn't even see that one coming. Hey, boom. All right. So you're going to take the J K L L route. And then when you get there, it's not the right spot. And then they're like, ha ha. And it's at the bar and I'm waiting at the bar, you know, and just say J K L L. Yeah. He's like, dude, I'm supposed to be at my at this funeral. I was like, yeah, you're not going to make it. Yeah. Well, thanks for calling. I'm just kidding. I'm kidding.

Go ahead. Complain more about Wisconsin. No, I'm in the world to be honest. Don't you Wisconsin's only good for beer and and fireworks you shut the front door right now Dan just Wisconsin just good for beer and fireworks. Have you not caught a while I am Wisconsin. All right, well, you not had a hey you riled up Charlie here. Let's do this rationally. What's better about Minnesota than Wisconsin? Oh, is this a Minnesota versus Wisconsin off? What's better about Minnesota than Wisconsin? Go.

Well, I mean, I guess Wisconsin-Dells, but other than that. All right, Dan, they're both the same. Let me rephrase this. You aren't saying that Minnesota is a superior state than Wisconsin. Is that what you're coming on this podcast? No, I'm just saying the only two reasons why I go there is for beer fireworks. Yet. That's the only reason you go there yet. Or that's the only reason you go there yet, or that's the only reason you go there still.

So all, okay. Well, do I need to elaborate on other reasons you need to go to Wisconsin? Or do you, or have you seen enough of Wisconsin that you think Minnesota's a superior state? Well, maybe it's that he's just getting lost. Yeah, all the letter streets and that kind of brings us back. So what what's the difference? Why is it such a big deal to you that they're if they use letters versus numbers? Well, I just don't I just didn't understand the part like they're to turn on from J to K and then KK and then back onto J. So this is like a very specific one time. The directions were confusing. Well, I mean, in Dan's defense, there are a lot of letterings, but Dan, I'm personally confused now. I thought every state had letters. No, not every state does that. No, you guys don't want to know. It's not just Wisconsin. Is it just

Wisconsin? In the midwest, yeah. It might be. Well, you know what, Dan? I'll tell you this. It's actually great for your memory. Okay. First of all, everybody knows that letters are more memorable than numbers. So that's actually in the win category for Wisconsin. You just takes a little getting used to. Okay. Here's a question. If if letters aren't the roots, right?

That he wants to go. The root or the route? Both. Okay. Let's propose something else. You can't go numbers because there's already, all the numbers are already taken up because they use numbers in Wisconsin as well, don't they? Oh yeah. We do not discriminate when it comes to roads. Charlie, in Wisconsin, what else should roads be named after? Should it be pictures? Should it be like how many beers, right? So you're going to take two, three beers over to four, five, six beers, you know? What are you thinking?

That's actually not I feel, okay, hear me out, Dan, hear me out. Could this be a solution to your problem? What if we had, you know, when you go into yourself like you ever been to Chubs In North Dakota you ever been to Chubs pub over there in Fargo If I did I don't remember well it really doesn't matter and that's a great answer and it's probably true But it doesn't matter any small town bar you go into they got these beautiful lit up beer signs and I think instead of 94 West, we should be taking a PAPS Chubb's pub beer, you know, or we should be taking a Miller light road all the way. Name them after and you see you bushlight. Yeah. There you go. Stuff like that. That'd be a good one. Yeah. But then the signs are just neons. The signs are neons. So and the beer companies

can, you know, like, you know how they had Miller Park, you know, because Miller was the advertiser for the Brewers, you know, the beer companies can, and they can pave the roads, literally, you know, they can sponsor a highway. Instead, instead of adopting, they sponsor a highway, and then they get the more, they get more advertising and your roads are better quality because they're getting paid for by these companies. Yeah. Now, of course, they're gonna have to write

drink responsibly underneath because you don't wanna be advertising highways and then encouraging people to and honestly, the highway system in Wisconsin should just be the destination should always be the next bar. So it wouldn't be it's like, Hey, this far until the next bar and you just have to jump from bar to bar. That's basically Wisconsin anyways. That is basically Wisconsin. Now I can already see the complications with the drinking and driving, but we're just spitballing here, Dan. Right. What else could we use to

mark the highways miles? I mean, pictures are always good pictures. Yeah. Oh, just just instead of like the deer crossing signs, just that's the deer freeway, the deer way. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, you just mark it by the animals that typically will cross. Yes. Yeah. Okay. So you're gonna want to head down Turkey way. Yeah. And then people are looking out for turkeys. Yes. You know? And when we could save money on signs as well, then you don't need all the deer crossing signs. They'll just know because I'm on deer highway that I got to watch out for deer.

That's true. Now I could see a complication. Oh, yeah, I was over there on Turkey highway. Would you, you know, I hit two deer on Turkey highway. They really got to rename Turkey highway to deer, deer road. Yeah. It's like, uh, one of just turns into Turducken. Turducken is you got turkeys, ducks and chickens walking, deer road. Yeah. It's like, uh, one of just turns into Turducken Turducken is you got turkeys, ducks and chickens walking across the road. You can just start combining them all. That's fun. And like Thanksgiving. And then the possibilities are endless. I

think we solved this problem right here, Dan. Well, yeah, I mean, I'm just saying, I just, you had to tell me to go on three different streets, get back on the first street. He doesn't care about any of this. He just wants you to fix this one section of Wisconsin. Well, it's actually a couple of sections. So if you go to the driftless region or you go like up North, you know, when you get into those country roads where they're like, you know, they're like, you know, let's try letters here. And that's kind of what you get. And it gets complicated because there's, there's like, there is actually a road that's O and P and E and with the different arrows and says, Oh, isn't that fun?

Cause it says it spells OPE, that should be a hat. I have, I have another question. Oh, changing the subject. Yeah. Please. Well, no, no, I want, I went through Green Bay up to going towards the UP. Yeah. And all those small town bars that they were legally required to have an old style or a Pat's blue-red sign hanging above the door? Or Blatt. You know, that comes... Or Blatt. So that comes from a time, Dan, if you're really interested in the history on this.

That comes from the time where the, you know, every time back in the day, beers would...beer companies and distributors and whatnot, they would bribe the bar. Still do this. You know, you see umbrellas that are like of a certain beer variety. That's somebody who went in there and was like, hey, I'm going to get you some umbrellas if you put this behind the bar. So what you're seeing is back in the day, that beer company bribed that bar

said, we'll give you a free sign if you do that. And that's how that, that's where that came from. They're like, we'll even put your name in neon. You know, so you can tell. You can't pass that up either. If you're the bar, no neon, free neon, free regular hang because I know the hanging light, you know, it's like off the side of the bar and they like sways in the wind. Yeah. You know, I'm talking about those are the ones you're talking about, right, Dan? Yeah. Yeah. No one can pass. Probably from the 70s, 70s, 60s of that vintage. Yeah. It was called free on back then free neon and it will line the bars and then you walk inside that bar and you'll

see a lot more free on. And, um, it was criminalized at, at one point just for a brief stint in the eighties. Uh, but it came back pretty strong and you see a lot of free on out there now. Bar signs are expensive, Dan. Yeah, I know. I worked in the industry for 23 years. Did you? What'd you do? Yeah, I know I worked in the industry for 23 years. Did you what you do? You name it I did it except for own the building So you own the bar, but you didn't own the building is what it sounds like I Had a small percentage of a bar at one point yeah We're not well. We're, we're on the subject to beer and stuff like that. Take note that Ham's it was a Minnesota beer first. Yeah. Yeah, it was. And then where'd it go? It was that. Yeah, it did. Hey, Dan, have

you ever put a hams in a ham? Cook like, chicken turkey butt chicken you ever do that with a ham and a hams it's good i don't like ham oh well you've heard of this thing we call ham right and other people in your family may like ham so maybe next christmas you'll think about them dan cripes dad i like you a lot i like like anyone that can get Charlie all riled up. So I appreciate you calling in. Well, thanks, Phil. Yeah, this is great. You know what?

Thank you, guys. I know you're making fun of me and everything. I'm having a good time just laughing. Dan, I'm the... Dan, don't project here. Don't turn the tables on me guy. I'm wise to this. You've been you called this podcast to make fun of Wisconsin. What am I supposed to do? Let that stand just

because we watched a little bit too much Sesame Street and said, Oh, you know, today's highway is sponsored by the letter a what you know what, Dan? Why don't you sponsor more roads with a a there should be two ways. That's actually accurate. But Dan, I I apologize in advance for this, but I want you to get on road a and then take a right on SS and get your ass on it Wisconsin. Okay. And yeah, you know where that is. Lake superior. All right. So I hope you're driving a duck boat. Golly. Spinovich, Wisconsin. Dells has a great duck boat tour, which is another thing you can do when you're getting your freaking fireworks,

Dan. Boom. I've done it. I've already been on a duck boat tour. Damn it. You should go again and enjoy it this time, Dan. Well, Dan, I thank you for thoroughly getting Charlie all riled up. That is one of my life's I don't even know if you guys are going to use this, but whatever. Oh, no, we're using it, Dan. We're using it. That ass choke was pretty money. Okay. So that that might close out a little video. All right. All right. I'm cool with that. All right, man. Well, thanks for calling in and you have a good one. Watch out for deer. Yeah, you as well. Watch out for deer

on highway. I 40 deer. Yeah. On the on Turkey road. Turkey road. Yeah. Yeah. Have a good one. Yeah. See you Dan. Yeah. Later guys. It's it seemed like he had one mission Charlie and I think he accomplished it. Next time you got to take a deep breath. Excuse me. Oh, now I feel better. Now I feel better. That was just a burp. See, I'm like a baby. I'm happy now. I had like gas pain. I called Dan back up. I was rude to him. I was just trying to pass that. Man, oh man. Dan the man. Miles, I hope your son don't grow up

to be like Dan. I'm gonna say that right now. All right, Charlie, I hope your son don't grow up to be like Dan. I'm going to say that right now. All right, Charlie, should we take another? I think we're, let's hope it's a better one. Welcome to the belly to podcast who we talking to. Hey, this is Dan from New York City. Dan Dan Dan, we just Dan. Oh man. We just got off the phone with another day. Yeah. Yeah. We hope I hope miles like the last day and I did not. So I'm hoping that I'm hoping you're a good Dan. I mean, I hope so too. Okay, Dan. Well, what's going on? Why don't you belly up to the bar with us? Tell us what's on your mind. Well, I grew up in Wisconsin and when I was a kid, I went deer hunting with my dad and my grandpa

and, you know, my bunch of my dad's friends. And then I got really into music. It's what I do now. And I got too busy to go hunting and I haven't been hunting since I was like 16, 17 years old. Now I live in Manhattan and I don't know how to find hunting buddies. We're talking Kansas Manhattan or New York Manhattan? New York Manhattan. Okay. How do you find hunting buddies in New York, New York, the Big Apple, Manhattan, the island next to the, anyway, I don't know what they call it there.

I got a, so Dan, I'll tell you this, I was in New York not too long ago. And I was walking around the Manhattan, you know, Yeah, wait, hold on, hold on. Yeah, hold on. Hold that. I'm holding that thought. Take it. He's wondering how to find hunting buddies in Manhattan, right? Yeah. And you were walking around Manhattan. Yeah. Correct? Yes. Charlie, you would be a great hunting buddy. Dan. So why don't you just tell us what you did, what you looked like, the things you were saying, and then Dan will know how to find

them. Well, okay. What were you wearing? My, my, my, well, okay, but my story was kind of going into this. Okay, I'll continue that. Okay, I was wearing the wrong thing, but this fella I passed on the street, Dan, was wearing the right thing. And what he was wearing is what you need to wear. What he was wearing is he was wearing a camo,

an orange camo shirt. So, you know, the tree, the trees and whatnot, and blaze orange, or it was a hunting jacket. And I was walking around, I wasn't paying attention. And then all of a sudden that blaze orange caught my eye. And I turned around, I said, oh, that's a nice pattern you got going there. And he turned, I said, oh, yeah, and kept walking. Now that was a misconnection, Dan. Here's what I'm telling you. You get your best camo pattern. Okay. And and choose it for the season. If you want a gun hunting buddy, you get your you get your blaze orange out there and you start walking around Manhattan and do not wear a different jacket and people will approach you. The person who approaches you is going

to be someone like myself. And the beauty of wearing blaze orange in Manhattan is it will only attract the right people. You got to view people who aren't hunters like deer. Deer don't see blaze orange, do they Charlie? No. And everyone who doesn't like to hunt is not going to give you a second look or even give you the time of day. But the person who does hunt is going to see that blaze orange and want to chitchat with you. They're going to compliment. They might get up close and give you a smell. See if it's still got a little dopey on it, you know, they're going to tap your pocket.

Here's the problem living in New York.'re gonna get people if you go no matter what you do no matter what you wear. So You know, you got to track the right sniffers. Yeah, well then just I would maybe think about putting on a dough dough Estrus type of cologne and then you'll really get the right people that's if everyone's smelling you then maybe that's the next route You wear the shirt. That's not getting the job done. Maybe a little pat a little do estrus on the wrist. You're saying there has to be level. Yeah. Oh yeah. We're just getting started. Yeah. I mean, we you want to start it. You want to give yourself a place to go here, Dan. Now, I will say I'm going to caution you a little bit. Somebody might see your blaze orange camo pattern

and they might mistake you for a fashionable guy. Cause I mean, let's be honest, you get a little too close to the Met Gala and that could be something somebody wears there thinking it's ironic. Yeah, but then they think he's part of it and he just gets a free meal out of the night. That's what you should be in the world. Dan, this is our challenge for you. The next Met Gala, you just roll up there and you go full blaze orange, just exactly what you

would wear in the deer stand in a late December hunt. Okay. And you walk your ass right into the Met Gala. I bet you no one stops you at all. The only thing you're going to need is just a pair of sunglasses. Yeah. It's like without the sunglasses, he just looks like he's going deer hunting. You throw sunglasses on to the middle of the day. You look famous. Yeah. It's like, Oh, is he a rapper? Yeah. I mean, so I think we the other thing you can do is just start walking around Central Park and go, you guys seen any deer around here? No. You say that to enough people that go, I was looking myself. Well, then you'll know that that person might be a hunter. I had to Google

one time, can you hunt in Central Park? The answer is no, Dan. So just know that. No, I sure can't. Yeah. I think the other spot you can look for fellow hunters in Manhattan is there's got to be a hole in the wall bar somewhere. And you'll know that it's the right place if drinks don't cost $17. Good point, Miles. In fact, that's the problem in Manhattan. I mean, there are all kinds of Midwestern bars, but you're still in Manhattan. So the drinks are 17, 18 bucks, you know, Miller lights, even 12 bucks. Like, you know, Jesus Christ.

You know, what about you ever go to Kettle a fish? It's a pack or bar? I have. It's a great bar, a little light on the food, but you know, it's a good bar. Well, maybe, maybe, you know, after you find your hunting buddy, you bring your, you know, your dough, your buck, bring the stuff that you can't fit in your manhandling freezer, bring it over to them and tell them you'll, you'll, it's on the house, you know, to try to lower the food prices. Yeah. That's a great idea. So Charlie, what, I mean, you were a guy in Midwest, still am, still are, but you were a guy walking through Manhattan. Yeah. What are some

of the things that you might hear from someone that you want to go hunting with? What would they be saying? Because I imagine, and I find myself doing this in a big city is I do a lot of walking around looking up at shit. Yeah, someone lives there full time. They are just walking with their head down their AirPods in and they're just going whereas I'm like looking up at the skyscrapers and my hands are getting a little sweaty looking how tall they are. You know, if that was, if I was going to identify, I'd be looking for someone who's just looking up

at all the buildings. You'd be looking for a tourist, but he's looking for a body who's there, right? You want someone there or do you want to just find any? I mean, that's true. Yeah. I mean, anybody that hunts, you know, I mean, people who live in Manhattan probably have some land upstate, you know,

that's true. They're rich. That's a tough one. A rich guy who also likes to hunt in Manhattan is what I would say a 30 point buck. That is a unicorn. Yeah. So how would you do it, Charlie? Yeah. I want to throw this out there. I want to throw this out there. Go over to where the boats come in across the Hudson River from New Jersey. You know, they got that trolley boat. Those folks are coming from New Jersey, New Jersey miles. I didn't know if you know this. It's got a great hunting in New Jersey. I didn't know that garden state. In fact, I think a caller might have talked to us about this a long, long time ago, or maybe not. Maybe I'm misconstruing. I don't know. But I would find someone from Jersey,

because someone who's taken the boat over to New Jersey is not they're trying to save money. They're not they're not taking their car in because of the the the tolls. They're getting themselves on a nice little ferry ride over on the commute. Just stand there as they come off the boat every morning and look for blaze orange and look for blaze orange. And it may take you a few weeks, but you know, you're a musician., yeah, that's a great excuse to stand there and not just put out a hat, take your guitar out there, play some music. They think that you're just trying to make some extra cash, but in reality, you're just looking for a hunting buddy. Maybe you just go there and play this song 30 point buck with your, uh, blaze orange hat out,

looking for tips. And the first guy to tip you. That's your hunting buddy. Yeah. I suppose if they recognize 30 point buck, that's a good sign. Yeah. And I think, I mean, really the answer was kind of a trick question, Charlie. How do you find a guy in Manhattan that's going to be your hunting buddy? You look in New Jersey. Ah, see trick question. It is a trick question. Dan, one more out there idea. What is your favorite species to hunt? It's got to be white tail. White tail. I grew up hunting. All right. Yeah. You get yourself a grunt call. All right. Yeah. And you get yourself a grunt call. All right. Can you go in the subway?

You put down your empty gun case that can't be full in New York, especially in the subway. You'll get arrested. And you sit there and you show off your calls. And once again, the first person to drop, let's be honest, it's probably going to be some change into your gun case. That is your hunting buddy. And you're saying take it on the road like performance art style. That's what you do. Gotta stick to your strengths, you know? It's not performance art, Dan. You're out

there looking for your buck and rut, my guy. Yeah. Yeah. Now, I do have some caution to throw your way. This person who put some money in your grunt call tip jar. They might not be the person you want to go hunting with. I mean, you're probably going to get a deer, but you might not leave that hunting cabin. Okay. Yeah. Because of why, because it's in the subway, Charlie. No, because he's doing a very weird thing. And when you do a very weird thing, you attract very weird people. That's how we got this podcast, Charlie. You and I, it is. And I've been living in your basement ever since. So that's where the caution comes. Living chained up. You know, what's the difference?

Well, you want to chain me for the podcast. So, which I appreciate it. By the way, can we get like some rubber inserts on that? My wrists are starting to go a little raw. Well, Dan, did we answer your question, my guy? Yeah, you know, I think so. It's the challenge really is picking out the wheat from the chat. Let's say there's a lot of weird folks in New York. So, you know, do you want to spend a week at deer camp with that person? Do you want to go up to the stands with that person? The person responding to your calls on the subway,

is that really a good bet? Well, I mean, here's the thing though, that's what you're dealing with. Cause you decided to move away from Wisconsin and move to Manhattan. So you just, you can't have a perfect world if you're doing stuff like that. Yeah, Dan. Final solution. Move back to Wisconsin. How does that sound? I sound cheap is what I thought. I will tell you what.

Yeah, it does sound cheap. How's the music business going, by the way? What are you on Broadway? What are you touring rocker? What's what are you doing? Can we find you on Spotify? No. Yeah. You can't find me on Spotify, unfortunately. I'm a pianist with the New York City Ballet here in New York.

Dang. Yeah, ballet is not where you're necessarily going to find a deer hunter, I don't think no, no, they don't get out much. That's really a cool gig you got there though. How long you've been tickling the Ivory's. Yeah. I've been playing my whole life and I've been here about seven years. So are you buy a piano right now? Uh, close enough. Yeah. Show us your penis. Let's let's, can we see what you got? Oh man. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. I don't know how it's going to sound, but just set the phone up, put it on speaker. We'll clean it up. Uh huh.

I mean, any request? What do you, I don't know. Wow. Sing us a song, Dan. You're the piano man. I will not sing. I don't get paid enough for that, but we'll sing. We'll sing. Okay. Dan, I got some bad news. If you're playing, we can't hear it. Oh, that's too bad. That is too bad. Can you move it closer? Yeah. I thought he was like warming up.

Yeah. Are you on speaker? The suspenders are killing me. Dan, what's going on? No, we can't hear nothing. I don't know. Is it an electric keyboard that you're playing? No, it's a piano. I don't know. I had it on speaker phone. It's maybe the mic just is overloaded. You know, piano is a loud instruments. They are wild. It was wild that we couldn't hear it. Yeah. Huh. All right. Well, that was all right. Dan, if we come to if we come to New York, can you get us tickets to the ballet? Oh heck yeah. Nice. Cool. Yeah. Well, you know what? I'll get you tickets to the

ballet. If you give me tickets to your next show in New York, Charlie, I didn't even know you were here. I just had one out there. I was playing at City Winery. I know. I found out the day of, I didn't, I didn't even see you the announcement go up. Shoot. Well, I got to do better advertising. By the way, if you're looking for more shows that I might be playing, you can go to charlie baronnes.com and click on the tour section. Dan, it's been a real honor. I like you a lot more than the last Dan. I'll tell you that much. All right. I'll take it. Well, good luck for your, uh, hunting buddy, searching New Jersey.

You know the plan. You know what to do. I think you're going to get it done. Yeah. I mean, with guidance that I get if you guys, how could I go wrong? We say that all the time. Yeah. We don't necessarily get that a lot, but we say it all the time. We do say that we say it often about ourselves. And that means a lot. You don't believe in yourself who will. Yeah. I mean, absolutely. We mean, we're searching, you know, we are a living breathing example of only people believing in us is ourselves. Yes.

Yes. And you can make it all the way to Chubb's pub if you just believe in yourself. So that's a lesson for the kids listening out there. Well, Dan, you have a good one, my guy. All right. Hey, thanks guys. I appreciate you. We are you watch out for them too. Miss you already. Yeah. I mean, that's whatever the opposite of shooting fish in a barrel is. That's what he's up against the complete opposite of that. Yeah. He's finding a needle in a haystack. You don't think they say that. Yeah. Finding us. Well, I was going to say a seed in the big apple, but you could probably I mean, apples.

Apple seeds are pretty big. Yeah. Well, I mean, I know. And haystacks have needles. No, no, they don't. Some do. Yeah, I suppose. I mean, where do you think the thing came from? Yeah, why? Yeah. That is a weird one, honestly. I have never found a needle in a haystack now that I'm thinking about it. Friggin... How did the needle end up there?

What was... I mean, someone was sewing and someone was trying to repair their jeans while they were on break, lost the damn needle. Like, I can't find the needle. And then someone's like, Oh, you're trying to find a needle in a haystack. And then they were out the next day and he dropped his, his wallet as he was going down the combine. And they're like, I gotta find my wallet. It's like finding a needle in a haystack. Good luck. I just snowballed from there. Yeah. Yeah. That's probably how it happened. Trying to

find a snowball in a blizzard while they're everywhere. It's kind of the opposite. It is. Unless it's actually like shooting fish in a barrel. Also, you know, it's got to be a strong barrel to shoot fish in it. Cause I mean, you know, it's that barrel. That barrel is not going to last long. It's actually going to be easier if you shoot a hole in the barrel and all the water goes out. Yeah. You ever try wrestling some perch out of a live well?

No. They're just swimming around. It's the biggest pain in the pecker. You got to drain the watt live well first. Do we take another call or try? I think so. Miles, you know what? I didn't want to do this like at a weird time when you were in front of people. So I just figured I'd do it now.

I'm so happy that you're having a boy that I got you a tippy cow at the blue one, the blue one. Yeah. How did you know? I just know that I'd want to celebrate having a baby boy with a blue tippy cow. Cause I know my buddy, I know my buddy Miles. I know he likes to tip it on back with the tippy cow. And I knew I had to get him that vanilla one because he is a vanilla fella. And you know what I'm going to use this for? What's that free game and labor there? Yeah. Free game that deal, you know, and a, as soon as that baby's out of hand, you give her one of them to you know, and it's already a vanilla soft serve. It can't be much different than what the kids have.. So kind of just blend right in.

That's kind of fun. I wanted to make a joke, but I don't think it's advertiser appropriate. So anyways, That's where I'm celebrating right here with Lil' Tippy Count. Cheers, tip it on back. The blue one. The blue one.

Eligibility restrictions apply, Folks, folks, I tell you what, you're driving down a Midwest highway. What do you see? You see a bald guy with sunglasses and a big beautiful beard. It's the Nicolet Law Offices billboards. All right. You know, some of you might call it the Nicolet Law Offices. Okay. But you're, you're probably not correct, but that's okay. You did annunciate the T. Anyway, I'm going to shut up with this intro because we have the man behind the billboards, the face on the billboards. That's right, ladies and gentlemen, the fellow with the beard and the glasses on

the horn right now, Russell, how are you, sir? Doing well. How are you boys doing? We're bellied up to a bar right now. We can't complain. Yep. Not at all. It's nice to put a voice to the face. Yeah. It's about what I thought it would sound like. Yeah. Honestly.

So Russell, as our resident law office here at bellied up, it's good for us to have, you know, a lawyer that we can call. We're very curious though about the world of law and we're wondering if you got any good stories for us, maybe in the courtroom or something crazy that happened. I've got one, I mean, there's a few two when I was a young lawyer, when the old judges would bring me back, sometimes they'd have a bottle of whiskey

and they'd give you a little nib on it to tell you whether you're doing a good job or a bad job. But there was one where I was doing a trial off in northern Wisconsin and we had a jury. And so the first part of the trial is they call it Waddier's Friends for basically you're trying to figure out the jury and who should sit on the jury and you know who's going to be good and who's not going to be, who's gonna be fair and not fair. And we're up in Northern Wisconsin and this guy comes in and he's got a two liter bottle. I don't remember if it was Sprite or 7Up or Coke

or what it was, but he's literally drinking it right out of the bottle in the courtroom where we're asking questions. And I'm looking at the judge like, judge what the hell is this? And the judge is kind of shrugging back. And so we start asking the guy questions and he just kind of grunting, you know, like grunting back the answers. Like they're inaudible and he's just drinking this bottle and they're kind of belching really well.

Sounds like Charlie has stopped. Yeah. Now that I think about it, it might've looked very similar to Charlie on Kemp fella. So what was in the bottle? I mean, I think it was just pop. But the thing was what I was trying to figure out was this guy serious or did he like Google something and how to get off a jury, right? Like, cause that's it. That would have been my move. Yeah. That's a, and it, and didn't work. Well, it eventually did. But the problem is, so the defense attorney, which is the opposing attorney, because this was a personal injury. So I'm against an insurance company and those attorneys generally want people that just don't want to be there. They want those people

on the jury because those people just want to get the heck out of there. And so I tell the judge, again, I'm a gay judge. Can we have a sidebar so we go up and my judge, this guy's got to go. He's not even answering questions. And the defense attorney is like, oh no, judge, he's fine. He's doing a great job. You know, and I don't even know how you can say that, right?

I mean, as we're talking, he's like belching super loud. And so any event, the judge goes, well, you know, if you want to remove them, because each side gets two strikes, you can strike them, but I'm not going to remove them for cause, which is where the judge gets to remove himself. He's like, I can only see what he does. And so I've got two other people that I want to strike. So I don't strike him, of course, the defense attorney doesn't strike him. And then, I don't strike him. Of course, the defense attorney doesn't strike him. And then, so he makes the jury. He actually makes the jury. And so he's on the 12 person jury. And Danny started doing even some weirder stuff. And everybody else gets up because they're excused to go outside and you know, get the bathroom and you know, do whatever they need

to do, maybe have a smoke break, whatever, before the trial starts. And the guy just sits there pounding that two liter bottle and belching. And like the, I think it was the bailouts trying to talk to him and say, Hey, like you got to go. And I keep looking at the judge like, judge, I told you, so the guy stands up and in the middle of court, the judge starts talking to him. And as the judge talking, he's still slamming that two liter bottle. And the judge finally tries to, you know, get some direct conversation with him. And the guy basically can't answer. The guy then walks out of the

courtroom and doesn't ever come back. So basically, he ended up removing himself. And they didn't send the bail up or anybody after him. I think the judge just at that point was like, I think you're right. I told the judge, I told you this. And so we ended up having 11 person jury. So who knows where that guy is. Maybe he learned something on Google. I would say if this podcast was around back then maybe you guys gave him all the information, maybe it was Charlie, but I don't know. Yeah. Well, honestly, he's probably still taking a pee break. I mean, after all that pop, I imagine that he had to go pretty bad and probably still going.

What are the, I was just curious, the top five ways to get out of jury duty, but I don't know if you can legally answer that. Well, I think that guy figured out one, right? So that guy might be out like teaching some kind of E-class or selling an e-book on how to get off juries right now. We should probably do a Google search and we'll probably find him. I think there's a market for that, Charlie. I think so. Well, I think we could come up with some pretty good ideas.

Oh, yeah. Yeah. I mean, you know, for one, I could say, you know, why do you want me as a jury member, you know, these lawyers were just watching them practice law. Like they're supposed to be professionals, but they're just out here practicing. So get me the professionals and then maybe I'll, you know, sit here and do it, you know, just do a little word play. You know, I think that's one, just be a pain in the ass. Like answer every question with a question.

Yeah. Socratic method. Yeah. Just talk about how indecisive you are. I think is maybe a good thing. Yeah. To get off a jury duty. Well, man, we appreciate the little tidbit there. I was, I wouldn't have had that on my bingo card of how to get out of jury duty, but here we are. Here we are. Where can the folks find you? Obviously, if you're just driving down the road and you look over, you're probably going to see one of our billboards. But other than that, you can get us at nickelalaw.com or check us out on social media.

We're all over there now as well. Well hell yeah, man. We appreciate it. And we'll talk soon. Yeah. Watch for deer. All right, you guys take care. All right, see you now.

Welcome to the BellyDub podcast. Who are we chitchatin' with today? Hey, Phillip. Hey, Phillip, you sound troubled friend. The way you said, hey. Oh, I'm in a little bit of a conundrum. Oh, well, you came to the right place. Billy and up to the bar with us, Phillip. Tell us what's on your mind.

All right. Well, I'm from Eastern Colorado here on every part of the Midwest. I hear from you guys. Yes, it is. Flat part of Colorado. That's the only part where it's keeping right. It's just that's as flat as can be out here. Good. It's all we like to hear. Yeah. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. So a little bit about this conundrum a little bit about me. I'm a I'm an avid country swing dancer. Some people might say. Oh, that's pretty cool. And, uh, yeah, yeah, it's a good time. So a little while ago, I was at the old, uh, the country swing dance bar in a neighboring town. And I noticed this, this pretty little thing across the way.

Real gorgeous, gorgeous girl. Bound you to my last year you uh yeah there you go so I asked her out on the old dance floor you know and I start swinging her around we get the talking a little bit a slinger and I take a big old bush armpit hair right to the face at a boy Phil what were you doing sniffing your own armpit Hey, Adam boy Phil. What were you doing sniffing your own armpit? No, I wish it was coming from my arm Coming from hers and I didn't know how to react What did you do in the moment first off? Did you just keep dancing like no one was watching? I?

Just kept dancing like no one was watching and my mind like a true professional like I kept it together but you inside what was your internal dialogue my internal dialogue was I thought it was a dude oh well all right Phil I'm gonna teach you a little thing about anatomy here. All right, and that's that You know it doesn't matter We're all come from chimpanzees What was last time you went to a zoo Phil? No Yeah, I know I hear you. Yeah a while. Well, if you look at the chimpanzees armpits,

I want you to do that the next time you go to the zoo. And you're going to notice there's a little bit of fluff there. And that's just as natural as it can be, you know? Wouldn't that be funny if the zoos were shaving the female chimpanzees armpits? Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha, okay. Let's break it down. Let's get into this little bit because it's 2023. And I think that they were going to see more of this, Charlie. That's the way the world is going. Pit hair is in 24. Is it 2024? Shoot. So it's 2024. You're going to see more. I think like the trend online is what's Ian and what's out. Aren't been here for women might be in. I'm not saying

that that's going to be true, but it very could well be. What's so wrong with a gal with a little extra tough underneath the pits? Yeah. What's so wrong with it? extra tough underneath the pits. Yeah. What's so wrong with it? You know, I don't know. I don't, I don't know if I'm just old school or not. I'm, I'm nervous. Those women from up in Boulder in the front range are making their way east and I don't like it. Oh, so you think you got a territorial type of battleground now. That's like in Wisconsin, you know, when there's like an elk that meanders on through, you're like, where the hell did that come from? Or like a cougar or something, you know? So you got a bit of a hippie coming in from the, the mountain ranges, huh? Into your own swing dance and bar. Yeah. Now, I like it. Yeah. Okay. So you thought she was a guy? Have you? She's not a guy though. Correct? No, guys, I tell you, she was the most beautiful

about five, 10 long blonde hair. She was perfect just until that arm lifted up. Okay. And then my whole world got turned upside down. So where are we currently at with this relationship with this gal? Did you get her number or was it just a one night we danced and then midnight hit and she had to go home? So we did a one dance, exchanged numbers, parted ways. We've exchanged a couple texts in but I'm apprehensive. I don't know whether to keep it going or give this thing a legitimate shot. Well, Phil, I got a question for you. Do you have armpit hair yourself? I do. Okay. No, do you without sin cast the first stone. I think Charlie is what the story of that is. Yup. Ye without fair cast the first armpit hair. That didn't work. It would've been cool if I got that.

I'm going to think about a good one tonight and I'm going to be like, shoot, I should've said that to Phil. Phil, what are you, are you a grooming the balls or no? Oh yeah. Okay. What if she likes a nice set of balls with a beard on it and you're over there shaving it? Do you think that you would shave or you think you'd let it grow out for her? Yeah. If we ended up getting together and that's something that she wanted, I'd be willing to do that. I think he'd beard his balls. Bearded ball. Phil. You didn't have to get some beard beard balms. Put on there. I did there. Maybe a new business venture miles. Beard balls. It's hard to say. Hard to say. Marketing's tough. You just put the M in parentheses. Yeah, that's true. Yeah. Bombs, beard, bombs,

beard, balls and fill. Okay. So where I was going with that. Sorry, Miles. I always interrupt. I get on my guys do phone love and you guys are a match made in heaven and you are swing dancing every night. Don't you think she would be open to the idea of maybe not even shaving just trimming those bad boys up if you're willing to grow out. Yeah. Some balls beard. Oh, a little little compromise here. You think all relationships have compromise Phil? Yeah, that's true. Would you be willing for maybe just Would you be willing for her to maybe just do like a goatee instead of like a full main under there? Like a little like a little armpit landing strip you're saying Like a little soul patch

Chicken noodle soup for the soul patch in the armpit, you know That's sexy Yeah You know, that's sexy. Yeah. Yeah, I think I think that might be a that might be an option. Maybe I just got to be a little more open minded with this whole thing. Phil, I got a question for you. Did the how do I say this? Did the upholstery match the curtains. I knew you were going to ask that. We didn't get to that point. Did the carpet match the drapes? No, I wasn't talking. I wasn't talking about the carpeting. That's why I said upholstery because it's higher up, right? Isn't that right? No, drapes would be the highest. Did you have bond pit here? Does anyone have

blind? Yeah. Well, I was it nice and flowing. Was it nice and flowing? Yeah. How did it look? How did smell when you were down in there? I did not. I did not get any whiff of any smell. Well, that's good. That's good. No smell is good. And it. Phil, what color is your armpit hair? Mine's the luckiest brown. Does the poultry match the carpet? That's it. Sure does. OK. It sure does.

That would be wild. Dark hair, dark beard, dark armpit hair, but just blonde pubes would be unbelievable. Just a Targaryen down there. Oh, man. Blonde hair and blue balls. Yeah. Maybe, uh, maybe I should pursue this, dig a little deeper into this. Absolutely, man. My answer is, yeah.

And I think what's really, what I find most often when people resisting change is it's not that they don't, they don't, that they hate it, it's more so that they're just not used to it. So I would just start looking at pictures of women with armpit hair online to desensit not used to it. So I would just start looking at pictures of women with armpit hair online to desensitize yourself to it. So next time you see it, you aren't staring or making a face or anything like that might be a good piece of advice. Okay. Maybe find one of those pictures on the internet and set it as my phone screen saver.

Well, then it's... I can look at it all the time. Then you're going to be sending the wrong message because then if she sees that, she's actually going to think you're really in the armpit hair and that could backfire. Yeah. You don't want to be there. Think you don't want to fetishize the armpit hair, you know, or maybe he could. Yeah. That would be best for both of them. Well maybe. Yeah.

I mean, this is interesting territory. But Phil, I think as long as you, you know, you could also, the other way you could do it, Phil, you lead by example, you know, you shave your armpit hair and see if she'll follow suit, you know. But hey, I got to tell you something, Phil. Be careful, you know, I mean, that's a lot of time that people spend, you know, escaping. You know how much time you're spending on your two fellas down there, you know?

Now you gotta add the armpits in there. I mean, you gotta check your drain, make sure they're capable of handling it, you know? Yeah, that's a good point there, Charlie. Have you ever tripped your armpit hair, Phil? Never. Never. I've never taken part in that. Well, neither has she. You guys might be meant to be together. I have that in common at least. Don't look at it as a red flag. Look at that. Something

you guys can bond over. Yeah. Dirty blonde flag. Two of them. Dancing in the wind. Well, let me, the last thing I'll say to you is you close your eyes and you view the person that you want to spend the rest of your life with. And keep going. I got funny things to say. You view the person you want to spend the one you grow old with that you're rocking on the porch with when you're 90 years old and you have their dancers as that's fun. Yeah. Yeah. So they're rocking and rolling on the porch at 90 years old. Yeah. And you had a great life together. If that person had armpit hair, do you think it would change anything about your life? You know, I would just have to look at it

every day. That's the only thing I can think of. Well, she's got to look at every day to fail. That's true. That is true. You know, you know what? Phil, this is the. Listen, I think about my wife. I get out of the shower and I got hair going everywhere. I got, I'm starting to develop back hair, Charlie. Oh, I've seen it. Yeah. I'm starting to get shoulder hair. So not only under the pit, but on top too. And little strangly one. So you got a full patch. I'm starting to get some patches going on. And I don't think she loves it. I don't think she's like, God, that patch on pit hair on his shoulder is hot. I think she's just kind of like, well, that's what I got to deal with. She loves him, not his

hair, but she's with him for him. You know, and if his back hair is knee high by the fourth of July, well, so be it. You know, Phil, I'm gonna tell you this right now. What were you gonna say? What was it? What do you mean? I forgot what I was gonna say,

but Phil, I'll tell you this right now. I'll tell you this. You know, you got this beautiful dancing partner and I say, you next time you go with cutoffs and you match her, her armpit hair. Okay. And you guys dance with your armpit hair swaying in the, the smoke and the mist of the bar. And if, if you don't like it, if you can't handle that Phil, maybe you just look your dead in the eyes and you say, Hey, should we cut a rug together? Oh, yeah. I got it. I got it. He swung. Phil, do you get that? Cause the rug is your armpit hair. So I hear you Charlie. You guys are

really opening up my mind of the whole situation. That's what we're here for, Phil. You know, we're, we're an open minded podcast. Yeah. Unless it's about stuff we're not open minded about. Right. Right. We're not going to open our minds to that shit. Yeah. But this little pit hair, little pit hair.

Come on, Phil. It's already hard enough to find the love of your life out there. And now we're splitting hairs. Oh, it started off as a hairy situation, but now it's just it's glad we combed through this. You know, Oh, and this crew is really starting to gel. I think it is. Yeah. And Phil, are there any loose ends or split ends here that we've left, you know,

because we don't want to just buzz over. I don't think so, guys. I think we got her covered. All right. What I'll do is all covered like a. I might have to give this a little, a little time, see what happens and give you guys a call back in the future for a little update. Yeah. Do report back. We want to know. I think that it could be love at first whiff. I think so. And you know what? Maybe I think we're starting a trend here on the belly up podcast and there's going to be so many folks that want armpit hair, even those that can't grow armpit hair. And so you guys will have to do, you know, locks for love with the pit hair, you trim your pit hair and you could do a Merckens for Gherkins too. You know, you never know. You know what a Merckens is?

I think it's a two pay for the down there. I think so. Merkin's for Gherkins. That's pretty good. I don't know. I see. I don't even know if that's accurate. Can someone Google that? Can you Google merkin? It's it's true. Merkin's for Gherkin. That's what's up. Yeah. So Phil, we're really glad you called man. Merkins for Jerkins. Jerkins or Jerkins. Isn't Gerkin like I don't know. Jerkins. I don't know. Anyway. Hey, Phil, you get out to the store by yourself some head and shoulders. All right. Okay. I'll be at your show and Greeley next month there, Charlie. Bring her with her with dude. And we won't, he won't say anything. I'm not going to say nothing. What he's going to do

is he's going to make the crowd do the YMCA so that he can get a nice look at it. All he's going to have to do is make the crowd do the YMCA and then he'll know how this went. Young man. There's no need to feel down. Young man. When your hair is under and then yeah, cause if she's still has arm hair, he's got to light up the crowd too. When you do the YMCA for sure. She still has arm hair. He's got to light up the crowd too. When you do the YM's for sure. She still has arm hair. We know that you have been an open minded fella and you are there or she doesn't. You guys compromise and you grew the hair on your balls. Yep. And then he's going to, and then he's make the crowd do the, it's hot in her. So take off all your clothes so we can see if he honored his argument. Yeah.

Yeah. That's it. I want to see that, that, that ball beard fell. So, I'm excited for you. So you got, you got a whole, you know, whole world in front of you to explore hair is a fun thing. It's a gift from God. You know, the fact that we cut it off all the time, you know, it's like so much drain. Oh, you know, how much time are we on? Cause we're just, just cutting off our pit hair and ball hair. And it's there for a reason? Well, that's a good point. That's a good point. Well, I'm glad we could fill you with some knowledge. Well, thanks for calling in and good luck. All righty, watch out for deer now.

All right. Yeah. You know, I think we really frigging change some hearts and minds out there with this call, Miles. I think that we, I think that we changed the world today. I do. I mean, all it takes is one person to open the eyes of the rest of the world and knowledge is power.

Now, he knows that he was closed-minded on that subject. He did. He is. we opened some minds we opened some follicles and I'm just I'm feeling really good about us right now Me too. Yeah.
