Starting point is 00:00:00 Go ahead, Charlie. Hi, friends. It's me, Charlie Barons. It's me, Miles. You bet you, guy. Miles, it's my mom pleasure to be here with you today. It's my mom's pleasure to be here with you as well. Thank you, Charlie. We had a nice date night last night.
Starting point is 00:00:18 Miles and I, folks, we went over to Oxbow, which I thought was called Crossbow. Yeah. So the golf course that I'm at, they had a, what I like to call white people Italian night. The whitest Italian night you could imagine. So they had a special Matthew, of course, one sheet, one sheet of blue sleeve, yeah, printer paper. And of course, they had to put the Italian flag at the top. And then on the TV, they just went to YouTube and played a like,
Starting point is 00:01:00 God, they would have been like an eight hour loop of video footage of just walking through what appeared to be Rome. Rome. Rome or some Italian city. Yeah. So as a POV of walking through an Italian city of some sort. It was just basically a lot of American tourists walking through. Correct.
Starting point is 00:01:20 The effective time square of Italy. And then there was also Italian music in the background. Yeah. Like, if you think of like the most cliche Italian music, that was playing the whole time. Go to your Spotify and you click Italian music for honkies. And that's what is going to pop up. Can we say honkies?
Starting point is 00:01:41 Is that appropriate? That's fine. No one's going to get upset about that. Telling music for honkeys to playlist and to add an extra layer to it. We were doing belly it up yesterday as well. And so we were not able to meet Anne and some friends when they were going to dinner. So Charlie and I showed up a little bit later. Mm hmm. And Ann was already there. Mm hmm. And Charlie and I got our own table together. So one, it looked like Ann and I were no
Starting point is 00:02:11 longer together. And it looked like Miles had left Ann for his new boyfriend. So Charlie is a hot new piece of ass. Yes. And that was me folks. So we did have matching And that was me folks. And we did have matching camel hats on. I was doing Blazorn. She was doing your standard issue duck camel. So it looks like we were matching, um, matching having a nice little romantic Italian dinner. And then the best part was, is they were walking around with wine sample.
Starting point is 00:02:41 Oh, there was a wine tasting. Oh my God. And there was a guy in a, uh, Oxford shirt and a vest that came to our table with three bottles of wine and asked if we would like to hear his spiel. And of course, Charlie, we heard the spiel. Yeah, we said, sure. And this guy spewed out more words that I don't understand than anyone I've ever met. It was a tasting.
Starting point is 00:03:07 Now it had tasting. You're supposed to like suck it in the teeth or something. Did you see me trying to swirl it? Yeah. I set miles on the first glass attempted to do some sort of tasting something. And then he just downed it. And then he just put his glass out immediately. The guys not even done with the first time explanation. Miles is just sitting there like put his glass out immediately. The guy's not even done with the first time explanation.
Starting point is 00:03:25 Miles is just sitting there like shaking his glass for more. Put that in the keon to your keon to your house. Just tap the top of the glass more. These are free, right? Yeah. And Miles is just downing them before the explanations even begun. Yeah, downed it before the explanation is done to so then he can go, oh, actually, I didn't, I don't remember what it tastes like. Now that you say that, I'd like to try it again. Give me another, top me off. Yeah, yeah, it worked.
Starting point is 00:03:53 And so he went through three of them, and the whole time I was just avoiding eye contact with Charlie, because if I, if I'd unlocked that, I just would have started laughing. Yeah. Because this guy was so serious about wine. He couldn't have been talking to two guys who care less about wine. I was trying to get my foot over to your leg under the table, but I couldn't reach.
Starting point is 00:04:18 So there was, there was something in the way and I didn't want him to know what I was doing, but I wanted to like, you know, put my, put my foot up your skirt there while he was doing it. And I think at one point he told us something about that they take the skin of the grapes out of the thing, then they would like dry agent for six months and then put it back in. Yeah, I was like a wine res bowl, you know, it was just scraping the ends off. And at that point when he was telling me that,
Starting point is 00:04:51 I was about to lose it, bite my lip. And then I tried that wine and I was like, the other ones are better. So I don't think they need to be going through all of this work. Yeah. Seems like wasted time, you know. Oh, wine, you know, wine is for some folks. And it's just not for me.
Starting point is 00:05:13 Yeah, I like wine. I just the snobbery around it is kind of insufferable at times. Yeah. I don't even know if I really like wine. I don't know. I mean, I don't think it's bad, but I'm never going on my way for it. I just feel like there's a bad hangover coming with wine. That's how I judge alcohol at this point in my life, whatever the hangover is. There you go. I'm old.
Starting point is 00:05:35 You are old. So all in all those good food was good. It was romantic and did join us. She did eventually. Would I love when we first walked up to Ann, she was hanging out with this other couple who had a baby and the baby was just eating her dessert off of a crann. Like literally was using a crann. Like, there's no joke. Using a blue crann as the spoon. And they're like, please don't judge us. If you had been here a half hour ago, she was losing her mind.
Starting point is 00:06:06 I know we're happy that she's happy eating off of this cram. I think they said if you were here a half hour ago, it would have made sense. And I was like, I really would love to have been in the place where her eating off a cram made sense. Kids eat cram. I mean, that's true. That's true.
Starting point is 00:06:21 I made sense on the face of it. But if there was a deeper story there, that would have been even better. Yeah, that was great. There's gonna be some blue in the stool. I have a feeling. Blue diaper. think miles before I keep singing. So all in all, great, great. It was a nice state. You know, we got to do that more often miles. You got to take me out more often. You know, you got to whine and dine before you also down this show.
Starting point is 00:06:53 You also, you also got to put out, though, if we're going to keep doing that. Hi, tonight, I just dropped you off and I went home, you know, I, you know, I, I, I, I, I, I touched your stick shift. Yeah, the shifter in my truck. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, yeah. You know, if you had a manual, maybe, you know, these automatic stuff, well, it does it on its own. And you don't need me. Okay. All right, Charlie, well, so we take some collars. I think that'd be a good idea, Miles. Welcome to the Belly to a podcast. Who are we talking to? You're talking from Alex from Chicago. Alex from Chicago. Are you
Starting point is 00:07:37 bears fan Alex? Oh, I sure am. You asked my brother the same question a few weeks ago when he called about his engagement. Oh, yeah. Tell your brother we says hi, by the way. Was he the one that was me? Was he the one that wants to live in Wisconsin, but he has to live in Illinois? Is that remember in that correctly? No, he's the one who wasn't sure about when he should get engaged because of the whole fact that I just got engaged. That's right. You're the twin. I am the twin. You got me. Dude, wait a minute. Did you know you were going to mess his freaking life
Starting point is 00:08:15 up? Do you want what you did? Oh, you know, it's all part of the plan when you're a twin, honestly. It's just a constant state of competition. and I just seem to be winning. Yeah, so you guys gonna do a two for one deal or no? You know, I didn't think that was a bad idea. I'm not gonna lie. He wasn't lying when he said it was a really expensive wedding. So I was all about it, but as you said, the fiance's aren't on board with that one. And we should quickly tell the audience what happened. His brother called up their twins. His brother was dating his fiance for longer than you were dating your fiance. And then you went ahead and you asked her to marry you before your brother got a chance to do it. And that made his fiance
Starting point is 00:08:56 a little upset. I think that's the, that's the recap I recall. Yeah. Yeah. Well, is that what you want to talk about today? Belly on up to the bar. Let's hear what's on your mind. We're not going to assume that you are calling up for the same thing your twin brother is. That would be an appropriate of us. We know better here. No, and I'll try and make it as quick as I can because I'm a teacher. I'm on my lunch break and I don't have a ton of time, but essentially, I have a co-worker from side hustles and makes a little bit of extra money as a Down in a trick, which is an interesting kind of side field, I suppose, to be in education. And I don't know. I guess I'm just wondering a little bit about the
Starting point is 00:09:38 profession and why somebody would get into that. And I don't know how to approach him about that. I have a conversation. It seems a little awkward. Why do you assume we would know about this? Well, first of all, I do know about this. Okay. You called the right place. Now, well, I'm packed, a teacher, a teacher, moon lighting as a dominatrix. And this is a male teacher or a female.
Starting point is 00:10:02 Not that it matters. Female teacher. Male teacher. Okay., not that it matters. Female teacher. Male teacher. Okay. Dammit tricks. Nine. Female. Oh, she's a female.
Starting point is 00:10:12 All right. Okay, cool. Man. She's about 50 years old. Yeah. Yeah. Get it. Get it, dude.
Starting point is 00:10:21 And she an independent contractor, or is she, you know, does she have a life? She's part of a or is she, you know, does she have a part of a corporation? Yeah, you know, I think she's independently hired. Go for her. Go for her. So how did you find this out? He dialed a member and guess who's the one the lives. Let's keep it secret around the office and everything, but she's kind of told everybody about it. Oh, all right. One of those keeping secret, but she's kind of told everybody about it. All right.
Starting point is 00:10:46 Well, smart. One of those keeping secret, but I'm going to tell a lot of people about this secret. Oh, yeah. I mean, smart though. She's just doing marketing, you know, you never know. You never know who could be a potential client. So the DOMA matrix for those of you who are not familiar,
Starting point is 00:11:02 it's these folks who can be hired to, you know, just kind of dominate you in the, um, what kind of dominating? Well, it could be anything like whips could be involved. There could be a little gag situation there. Um, and look, I'm not into it. I'm going to tell you, I'm not personally into it, but I've read a few articles on Wikipedia about it. So my only experience with this is the show Billions on Showtime. Yeah. One of the main characters is into it. So there's a lot of scenes with that. So yeah, it's just these powerful fellas, typically historically speaking, powerful women
Starting point is 00:11:37 too. I'm sure it works the same. But basically they tell, you know, they dominate in their actual lives. So in their, you know, bedroom behind the scenes lives, they, it is their kink to be dominated, you know, and kind of told what to do and, uh, barris and all that sort of stuff. I think, I think, I think you got the gist. Yeah. I'm actually not an expert at all. I just read an article at one point was kind of fascinated by it. But,, so what's the problem? Yeah, what's the problem?
Starting point is 00:12:06 I don't know how to approach her about the situation. I'm sure like I don't think I would do it myself. I'm just curious about the profession and what it entails and I'm trying to come up with like a way to approach to find out a little bit more about it. What she does, what the job entails, I mean, I guess I wouldn't ask about who her client is, but it just seems like an interesting thing that maybe after how she got involved in it and things like that, right way approach. So here's, you could almost take a professional approach
Starting point is 00:12:35 with this. So I know a lot of times that there are teacher workshops that schools will do where you you know, you actually have, the kids have a day off of school. Oh, yeah. Teachers are in a workshop. Yeah, yeah. You guys could take a day and do a little,
Starting point is 00:12:54 dominatrix workshop. A little professional development. Yes. And it'd be, and you can pitch this to the principal that this is purely educational. And you guys are just trying to become better teachers by understanding the world better. Yeah. And then one, you guys can get paid to learn about it. And she can earn some more money on the side by getting paid by the school district to do this workshop. That would, that would not find its way on the right wing radio at all.
Starting point is 00:13:27 Um, that, uh, that is pretty wild. God. What do you think of that? I think that would fly. Oh, you know, it might be hard to get past the board of education. Yeah. Well, you know what? I, I will, you, another option.
Starting point is 00:13:42 Oh, I would say I do like miles, another option is you could kind of write a note on her deal, say, I'm gonna come pick me up at this bar, you know. And then you get the first experience, the first person experience, the POV experience of what goes on, you know, are you into that? Oh no, you've got to. Sorry.
Starting point is 00:14:06 Yeah, you could do a ride along or a shadow situation. You could shadow her on one of her trips. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So we're talking almost like student teaching again. Yeah, you could student teach. You could student teaching.
Starting point is 00:14:22 Yeah. Yeah. You're the TA. Student teaching. Yeah. Yeah. You're the TA. Ha. Get it. TA. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, you could do some student teaching and you just do all the stuff that she doesn't really
Starting point is 00:14:34 like to do. You know, you could untangle the ropes. Yeah. He's a whip wrangler. Yeah, he can oil up all the leather whips. Yeah, there you go. Keep maintaining all that stuff. Yeah, you're the Robin Doer Batman.
Starting point is 00:14:51 Oh, um, that might not be a bad side gig either. No, not at all. Now I have to ask you, but do you think you should be willing to split the money? That's well, you not split it. You just get a percentage of it. You're a TA, foul. You're asking me to do the dirty work here. I got to clean up. Yeah, that's how everyone starts. You want to get in the game? You don't get in on Um, so, you know, whatever, uh, you guys like, she's like, Hey, I need you to run to the candle store before the session. Don't
Starting point is 00:15:39 forget the matches this time. Right. It all for my taxes. Yeah. Yeah. Don't don't think you can just come into this game at the top. Okay. You come in at the level you're coming in on. No, I do have a question. No, do you have interest in getting into this field yourself? Oh, no.
Starting point is 00:16:00 I know I know I don't personally have interest in it. I feel like it's a little too risky for me. But let's say it won't risky. Let's say there was no risk. Let's think about it. You figure out. Huh? How do you figure? I mean, there's no risk. Let's say in a world where there's no risk. Would you have any interest in doing this? And you know, I don't think that's really a my alley. It makes me kind of think it's typical. You know, it's a little bit more disbursed, but you might be the prime candidate to be in the industry, considering that you're not into it because it's kind of like, you
Starting point is 00:16:35 want someone to be king who doesn't want to be king. That's going to make the right decision. Exactly. We'll get drunk on the power. Yeah. And not getting high on your own supply, you know, kind of the same thing there too, you know, you guys, someone who can be removed who knows the game knows how to execute, but treats this as a job, not as their own personal kink. What is your kink? Oh, come on. Everyone't know if I have one. Oh, come on. Everyone's got one. Hey, everyone's got one. You just haven't found it yet.
Starting point is 00:17:14 You know, so yeah, there we go. So what is it? You seem very curious about it to say the least. What are some of questions that go on in your head when you hear about it? How does one even get involved in that in the first place? Well, I think it's a word of mouth. And how much money do you have it? Oh, you're making money, dude.
Starting point is 00:17:31 You're rolling in it. You're dealing with a lot of oftentimes the richest fellas in the game, you know, rich, a lot of money. Yeah. I mean, and look, it's not undo. There's a lot of time and effort that's gone into preparing it. You know, you are, you are an actor going on stage. You know, you cannot break character. And you oftentimes will break whips. And those are expensive. So yeah, it's expensive,
Starting point is 00:18:00 but there's a lot of costs that goes into it. You're not just paying for the night, you're paying for the wealth of experience that these Dama Matrixes have. So. No, I see. So is there, and this is a question for you, is there like a ethical thing with being a teacher and doing this on the side, or they can't really do anything about it,
Starting point is 00:18:20 because it's outside of work? Like, is there a concern that there's like a job in jeopardy for doing this on the side or no? I don't know how it works. This would kind of be my final thought, just because I have clashed in about two minutes. But yeah, I think that if you're caught under that, that could probably be a whole moral thing to go up
Starting point is 00:18:39 against the board. And then I guess you're kind of facing a job jeopardy. Well, it's really good that you aired this out on a podcast that many people will listen to to put this person's job in jeopardy. No, we didn't say any names. We didn't say names. There's a ton of dominatrixes that are teachers and not only fans, you know, even it's fine. It's fine.
Starting point is 00:19:04 No one's going, no, right? All right, well, I'll be sure to let the principal know that they should become some professional development and we'll see what we can't do about it. Yeah, steer into the skid, you know. Gotcha. All right, fellas, well, thanks so much. I gotta go to teach a class now.
Starting point is 00:19:22 Tell your brother we says hi, all right. Hi, Michelle, thanks so much. I got to go to teach class now. Tell your brother. We says hi. All right. I wish. Yeah. Thanks so much. Bye bye. Now, you know, now did I wake up this morning, Charlie, thinking I was going to be talking about this on the podcast. No, but you never know what you're going to get. Not your bellied up podcasts like a box of chocolates. It is. And sometimes there's a whip in that box of chocolates. I ballgag will have been funny. or thing to say. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:19:49 I don't, I was lying. I don't know anything about diamond. Yeah, we could tell. I've seen them on TV. No, like, like literally the, the show billions. It's like the first scene of the entire scene that might be actually my last interaction with the diamond. Matrix. Yeah. Oh, no, there's some other thing. Oh, is that where maybe that is it? There was some other succession. Is there a Dama Matrix in that?
Starting point is 00:20:13 I don't know. I don't think so. Yeah, that's probably why I said, only rich people. Yeah. It's just a billion. Yeah. Good, good guy though. Good guy.
Starting point is 00:20:23 Yeah. God, can you, I can't imagine the gossip going on in that teacher's lounge. Oh, yeah, just sipping on diet Cokes just gossiping about it. Can't imagine. Man. Yeah, I did. I don't even know if they do the if they go all the way. I just think that they just kind of humiliate them. I don't even know if there's, you know, P and the V. Why don't you do some research, Charlie, get back to us. I don't want to do work, dude. I don't want to do work. You guys can go. Next time you're hanging out by yourself. Yeah. Just venture into that part of the internet. Oh, you know, yeah. No, don't skip that part. Yeah, you know, yeah, no, don't skip that part. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:13 Welcome to the belly up podcast. Who do we got? Hey, everybody, it's Natalie. Natalie. What's up, Natalie? Where are you calling them from? I'm calling from Massachusetts. Yo, mass. Nice. Where mass? Yeah. Boston.
Starting point is 00:21:30 Kind of well, South of Boston on the border of Massachusetts and Rhode Island. But my family's also in the Midwest, so that's how I know about you guys. Okay. Sounds like a good family. That's pretty cool. Yeah. Well, watch your belly up. I'm gonna catch you. Go ahead. I was saying the catchers are all pretty good people.
Starting point is 00:21:52 They are from Illinois, but a lot of them came from Wisconsin. So, you know, Nick's back. Well, they got that Wisconsin in their blood. That nice, that nice cheese-curded little um white blood cells coming down yellow blood cells. Well white if it's mozzarella So anyways, yeah belly up to the bar and tell us what's on your mind Have you ever played Dungeons and Dragons? Ah
Starting point is 00:22:21 D&D Dungeons and Dragons Ah, wow, D and D, Dungeons and Dragons. You know what? I've had friends play that. My brother played that. I remember growing up that and magic, the gathering. I went to this, I was at this Catholic school and they thought a lot of that was devil worship because they were bunch of silly bastards back in the day. But I, I really enjoyed magic, the gathering, but I never got into dungeons and dragons. What's your question about it? Well, I was in the Midwest recently for GenCon, which is one of the biggest tabletop RPG gaming conventions in the country over an Indianapolis.
Starting point is 00:23:05 And while I was out that far in the Midwest, I thought, well, you know, I'm going to go see the Hodeg. So I took a little road trip upwards to go visit our friend up in Rhinelander. And it got me just real excited. I do a lot with cryptids and other monsters on the show that I make. And I wondered what you guys, if you know a lot about your Midwest monsters and what you think of a game where you had to go around exploring them might be like. I really like that idea. That's really cool. So you're asking us to build a world in the Midwest. Something what do you know about local legends?
Starting point is 00:23:45 I'm quizzing you. Well, my first one goes, you know, Paul Bunyan would be kind of a cool character in that, don't you think, Charlie? I think absolutely. And Paul Bunyan, it's almost like an army of Paul Bunyan's, because there's so many Paul Bunyan's, there's Paul Bunyan, Bradenian, Paul Bunyan, the Wisconsin Dells, Paul Bunyan up there in, um, um, oh, why can't I think of the name now? Why can't I think of the name right up there in northern
Starting point is 00:24:11 Minnesota? Shoot. It just escaped me. The what? The Bemidji, the Bemidji, uh, Paul Bunyan, he's got a, he's got a, like almost like a, a porno stash on him, you know, like a nice little handlebar thing going. And then of course, babe, the blue eyes. Like, all over the Midwest. What's that? You've got like clones of himself all over. Yeah, he's kind of cloned. Yeah, it's everyone.
Starting point is 00:24:36 There's like every city in the Midwest tries to claim that Paul Bunyan is from there. So we have like, like 15 Paul Bunyan statues and everyone claiming that, you know, Wisconsin claims Paul Bunyan Minnesota does probably a little bit in Iowa and it's all over the map. And I like how every Paul Bunyan insists he's the real Paul Bunyan, you know, in this world. And then, um, yeah, I mean, you've got the whole dag over there in Ranglanders. You already brought up miles. It's this big green monster. Because Wisconsin has a lot of these.
Starting point is 00:25:11 Everybody's best friend. What's that? He's everybody's best friend. But the nice guy. Oh, seriously. And Wisconsin has a lot of these roadside animal attractions. And I'll list off a few before miles. I ask you something, but like in
Starting point is 00:25:25 deforest, we got pinky, the elephant, black river falls, we've got the orange mousse. You know, there are several cheese shops with big fiberglass cheeses, mice holding cheese. You know, there's there's a lot of that going on. There's the big walleye, the world's biggest walleye and Hayward, the world's biggest loon. I forget where that is. Anyways, so Miles, my question for you is like, does that stop in like Wisconsin Minisoters? That come out here to North Dakota. You guys got a lot of roadside attractions.
Starting point is 00:26:00 Yeah, we got, I mean, we talked the other day about biggest buffaloes in Jamestown. Oh, we got, I mean, we talked the other day about biggest buffaloes in Jamestown. Oh, yeah. Um, we got see Minnesota. There's a lot like loons and statues of loons and pelicans and stuff like that. Yeah. Um, so I got a question about. Okay, what, what'd you say? You know about the love frog. Okay, what would you say? You know about the love and frogman in Ohio. I don't tell us about it. They're basically humanoid frogs that carry around magic wand.
Starting point is 00:26:34 That's cool. What is a frog to with this magic wand? Does it, does it ask to know? I would assume that cast fell. No, as spells or do they use it for good? Do they say, please let me live through the winter? Where do you think frogs? Hold on, hold on, Charlie.
Starting point is 00:26:54 I think that we should have Natalie give us a character in D&D. If you were to give us a character, what would it be? Yeah. Let's see. I mean, Charlie, you do a lot of hunting, right? In fishing. Yeah. So it probably would make you a ranger if you like the great outdoors that much. I could be a ranger. Is there bird? Is there bird watching involved with that character? This is there could be, that's the a perception check. Yeah think that's a good thing. I think that's a good thing. I think that's a good thing.
Starting point is 00:27:28 I think that's a good thing. I think that's a good thing. I think that's a good thing. I think that's a good thing. I think that's a good thing. I think that's a good thing. I think that's a good thing. I think that's a good thing.
Starting point is 00:27:44 I think that's a good thing. I ride that hell yeah save a horse ride a snipe I like that what would miles be you think for miles I'll see well I mean there's always bars right if you want to go the entertainer route what a jiggle oh is that what you meant by there's always bars and go the entertainment route? I was confused by. No, no, no, no. I mean, he's always giving you a hard time. And bars have cells that can cast which will do damage based on how cutting their remarks are a bar with a D. I see. Yeah, he could be a bard. I like that. But I mean with his fitness training, you know, that might put you in the realm of like fighter or barbarian.
Starting point is 00:28:32 Yeah. Don't let him be a barbarian. Don't touch me, dude. Don't touch me. That's not cool. If I just the wheel the sword, I'd like to wheel the sword. Oh, you know what? I'm fine. If he's a barbarian, as long as like he's the evil guy and the me is the ranger, I got a fight him and kill him. You guys want to team up together with you and the Hodeck and go fight, you know, actual evil people.
Starting point is 00:28:59 Well, we need a common enemy. Otherwise, we will become each others and me. Oh, yeah, we could go be we could go go Or we could fight the LA hippies the LA hippies. Yeah, that'd be fun. The greenies That could be a good one. There's an 80 That's from Illinois. You can fight. Yeah, there's a Sasquatch. I think we'd want to pair up with him though I really like the idea of like riding the blending the thing, blending those two things we were talking about, bringing in these roadside attractions and like, you know, partnering up with them.
Starting point is 00:29:36 That could be a great cartoon. You know, maybe a Midwest children's cartoon, but you know, one that adults would enjoy watching as well. What is your character in D&D? So I have a character who is an angel. She's sort of stuck on the earth and vanished from heaven and hell. So he's sort of stuck there helping people out and just trying to live a normal girl next door kind of life.
Starting point is 00:30:05 I like that. A banished angel. Why did the angel get banished? She refused to take part in the war between the devils and the other angels. So they sort of were like, well, you didn't fight. So we're going to put you over here. Okay. So honestly, pretty Midwest of you to just sit on the fence. Yeah. Yeah, I can see it on both sides. You know, I get where you guys are coming from. I just hope both sides are safe and have fun.
Starting point is 00:30:36 Yeah. Yeah. I'll just take it down. I stress. Like, if we all could just sit around the table and have a chat. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That's true. You know, you know, you were wrong. Yeah. To the bar and have a couple beers and chat about it. Exactly. Yeah. We're sorry that, you know, you got banished from heaven.
Starting point is 00:30:58 You would think though that heaven would be a place where angels could not fight if they didn't want to. You would think once you've gotten to heaven, you know, yeah, usually I, I, have you have a pretty accepting supposed to be an accepting place. That corporate bureaucracy there, you know, though, I guess on, yeah, that is true. Damn HR department in heaven. Yeah. Oh, man. All right. Well, we appreciate you calling in. That was, uh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:31 I, I'm a, I'm a barbarian, uh, I'm a ranger. He's a ranger. We're going to fight. There you go. The LA hippies, Charlie. Yeah. I like it. You guys ever want to play?

When I was looking up voices to do the Hode Ag character, I was like, let's go and see an accent. I found Charlie stuff.

Starting point is 00:32:39 It's the middle of Wisconsin, big, open sky, far as you can see. And down on the distance, you see the strange, the middle of Wisconsin, big open sky, as far as I can see. And down on the distance, you see this strange green Mikey creature carrying a bag of groceries from the quick trip and wearing a little baseball cap on one of its horns. He pulled it alongside, he says, well, hey there folks, where you head in to your car looks like you could use a
Starting point is 00:33:04 tool now. You want to pull her over to the car looks like you could use a tune up. I want to pull her over to the side of the road. I'm not busy. I'll help you. Yup. I think the nailed it. That's awesome. That's so good. I like that a lot. I like, you know, D&D sounds like a lot of fun. I have been told I got a partake. I'm upset I haven't really partaken yet, but I would like to do that. No, okay. All right, I'm going,

Yeah, whether you're a D&D enthusiast or a D&M enthusiast, you know, a BDS, um, enthusiasm, um, it's okay here. We, you know, you don't need to stop playing pretend just because you grew up, you know, with this is the land of, uh, uh, um, fantasy. Yeah. Well, fantasy, fantasy, folks. It's that time of year where we're doing these new years resolutions. We're trying to be better people trying to change. Oh, you know what?
Starting point is 00:34:30 Some things in life, yeah, I guess they can change, but some things got to stay the same like Tipeekow. Tipeekow has been right here for the past year and and some a lot of change. Maybe two years. Maybe not sure when to be how started, but since it started, since it started, yeah, since they, they put a great taste, that sweet little nectar of a Wisconsin cow teat in a glass and blended it up with some rum. It's just been delicious in the stomach area. And my thing we're not going to change this year, Charlie is tipping it on back. The old Tipeek

I like playing little streetcraps myself. If I'm bored, got five dice on me. But anyways, this ain't about me, Tyler. This is about you. What brings you on the show today? Billy up to the bar. Tell us what's on your mind, Phil. Well, what's on my mind is so we have a coworker that Originally was just a trouble maker or a double maker and then Quick said he was gonna go make better money somewhere else good for you, but go greener pastures
Starting point is 00:38:59 Yeah, almost greener pastures turned brown, red, horrible for them. Yeah, as they placed a place. Then came back to us and he's like, oh, hey, really? Hey, how's it going? Just be able to do your job. And he's like, hey, you know, you know how I can make good money. And it's like, well, what's the scheme you got going now going on now? He's like, oh, I'm going to start a snowfall business bud. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:39:20 You're in Wisconsin, but everyone's got a snowpile business. You're not the first to, well, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. I'm going to do it under the table, you know? And like, what do you, what do you guys think is a good price to charge for a driveway? Like, what would you pay to have someone plowing? Well, you're asking us. I thought you were talking to him, still asking.
Starting point is 00:39:38 Yeah, no, no, you. What do you think you would pay? I have to be honest, so you I've never paid that my drive. We done. Uh, I don't know like 85 bucks. Maybe it's to do the whole driveway. Oh my God. That's a ton of money.
Starting point is 00:39:56 85 dollars. I will say that's a ton. I know you're, I know you're in the Dakotas, but God, it was gone to that. That's like bending over. I'm not a fox. The guy thinks he can get 150 ahead. I know you're in the Dakotas, but God, it was gone to that. That's like bending over. Wow. I think the guy thinks he can get 150 ahead for a driveway. Well, that's like, but, um, nice, nice kid. That's like, geez, Louise.
Starting point is 00:40:19 Well, look, here's the other thing is I don't know. You know, I mean, I don't think honestly miles when you said 85 The more I'm thinking about it here like if you are sort of trapped inside You're maybe an older person you got like one of them big old country driveways That could be an 85 dollar job Especially if you don't just have the plow on your deal But then you're getting out and you're shoveling the walks by hand. And you got a lot of walks. I mean, it really, it's not a driveway to driveway basis. It's kind of a square footage of drive, you know. And so I think your buddy's
Starting point is 00:40:58 got a little bit more, he's just any, any single drive way, it's just a flat rate of 150 bucks. Well, that's what he's thinking he can do. Then he's thinking, well, you don't need insurance. I'm like, but you you have you've ever done like a business or any family, you can't need insurance. What do you get someone's car? Oh, I got buddies that will do two side work for them. Yeah, well, they got feels like a prime candidate for a pyramid scheme. Gonna be honest. Yeah. Has he got you guys to try and sign up? I wanna give you three of your friends to sign up. I wanna be surprised if he was involving Cutcore, Cutware or something.
Starting point is 00:41:31 Whoa. So the kid before last time he was here, was he was saying how he was gonna quit all his jobs and make money by running in a diesel pickup truck or pulling up tractor poles. I'm like, bud, you got a whole bunch of kids. Couple baby mamas. How are you going to live with doing tractor poles? All my decals are going to bring bread and butter, but I'm like, what about insurance and all that fun stuff and
Starting point is 00:41:56 else payments? Oh, no, no, you don't understand. So he's a serial entrepreneur and he's a serial Pro creator. You okay Charlie? You can see how money hungry is you should approach him with a business idea and just make it a pyramid scheme and see if you can get him on board with the pyramid scheme. And then once he does it, you go, Hey, man, you just signed up for a pyramid scheme. We got to have an intervention or and I like that, Miles, or this is actually the guy you want in your pyramid scheme. I mean, he's a crucial hub. Yeah. You know, if you're the top dog of the pyramid and he's responsible, you may, Kim, think he's starting the pyramid
Starting point is 00:42:52 scheme, but really it's you on top. He's bringing you a cut. Yeah, nothing. Yeah. Why don't you just say against the guy? He's a good guy, but it's just like, but yeah, yeah, wake up and smile the roses. Well, or, or do you have to wake up and smell the roses? You have an opportunity in front of you. You could start your own pyramids. Can't right here right now. Yeah. You already got one person to sign up and then he gets three people to sign up and those people get three people to sign up. Next thing you know, you're rolling to dough. Yeah, this is like the guy you need. Like in the mafia they have like, you know, the guys that go out and do all the dirty work, the bang all the knee caps in, you know, this is him. This guy is sitting there holding the baseball bat, just looking at you, saying, put me in coach and all you have to do is devise the game. Coach, yeah, it's the dominoes are all set up.
Starting point is 00:43:47 All he's got to do is just push that first one, push it down the deal. What do you think of that? If you remember how to do stuff, I don't know. The kids, nice kid, but I swear to God, he ate lead-based green for breakfast in the, instead of frosted flakes. What did he put in his frosted flakes? No, instead of you let base paint I swear to God. Yeah, again, though. So he's got a little problem in the amygdala portion of the brain. That's why you are you and he is he. He does not have the inhibitions that stop most people. And so you are should take advantage of that. You know, this is America. Get with it. Okay. I let's play a little game here, Charlie. Okay. What,
Starting point is 00:44:31 you know, he's he's clearly going to keep doing schemes. I don't think this guy's going to stop and he's a skimmer. He's a skimmer. I've seen Shining Time station. What would be a scheme that you would suggest to him that's maybe better than the ones he's coming up with? I don't show up to work on time. Oh, so and actually, it's more natural, okay, natural correct. Yeah, go ahead and the actual constructive one.
Starting point is 00:44:58 Hmm, actual scheme that's not a scheme that actually do some good. I don't know. Exactly. Exactly. So at least he's the man in the arena here. Yeah. Oh, some people I swear to say it's too much ambition and not enough.
Starting point is 00:45:16 Like he's one of those people I started million projects and then this tells you both of my red agents. Like good for you, but good for you. Did you finish that last look? Oh, no, I did see that one. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Why, why, why you start another one if you ever finished the last thing?
Starting point is 00:45:29 Does this guy, oh, this one's gonna make me tons of money. Yeah, I mean, I mean, this is an opportunist, man. I don't know. I think he's got delusions of grandeur. Does he not? Is he kind of always the top dog in every room in his mind? Oh, yeah. And he's got a, you know what, this one place, I learned this.
Starting point is 00:45:48 I learned this good trick of the trade here. I learned that there, but there's only last two months, that's up beyond the point. That's not where it matters. Yeah. Yeah. How tall is this guy? Short for sure.
Starting point is 00:46:02 No, he's at, it's at least six foot. Oh, wow. Okay. Dang, I wasn't. Doesn't have little man statue or anything. Huh. So what's so wrong with letting him do his schemes? Is it just that you'd hate all the small talk about it or what? Oh, it's every day. Like, if you like, let's say, let's say you're what's his name on your under the podcast teacher guy what's his name Ryan Ryan Ryan yeah because I just watched the other one where he drug his kids face on the on the sidewalk it was listening at the other morning don't ask him why I was listening to the older
Starting point is 00:46:42 older ones anyways he came up through every day. Hey, you got a new idea for you? Well, let's let's make mini bounty houses for courties. And it's like, Buddy, what the hell are you talking about every day? Talks to you about it. Little mini bounty houses for courties. It's like, no, but I'll do you. All right. That's the luck. So I'm going to be like this thing. It's a same topic over and over. I'm going to be honest, this actually sounds like how I talk to Ryan. I'm starting to think that I might be this guy, Charlie.
Starting point is 00:47:19 I mean, I also will say a bounce house for Corgis. Sounds pretty cute. I'm kind of on board with that. That would crush on TikTok. That is a market, I also will say a bounce house for Corgis. Sounds pretty cute. I'm kind of on board with that. Yeah. That would crush on TikTok. That is a market, I think. Yeah. You actually could sell those.
Starting point is 00:47:30 If you can just find the rubber that their little nails won't go through, you know, or do they have to wear booties? They don't like wearing booties. No, I kind of like that. You can find honestly, dude, partner with him on that idea. It's a great idea. You just come up with that on the spot. Yeah, I just found a spot.
Starting point is 00:47:48 You need to be an entrepreneur. That was your idea. Yeah, he just came up with that just now. It's a great idea. That is a great idea. So are you taking investors right now? All right, no, no, yeah, you know, well, you should be down the line.
Starting point is 00:48:03 You know, I, I, tell the line, you know, I I Maybe that's maybe my pyramid scheme bounce house. The corgi bounce That's it. That will be the it's not a pyramid scheme. You know, if we actually deliver that is true. Hey, and that's what you tell your fella too. It's not a pyramid scheme. If we deliver actually only did the less you tell him the better. Um, cut him in on the action. He'll, he'll, he'll break up some investors. Actually, forget cutting him in. Cut us in. Yeah. You know, we, I'm trying to give away our equity here. We will invest. You know, you, you, you, you, you, you get me into sleep time with these bounce houses. You guys are all my little simple folds and
Starting point is 00:48:38 kick-talk views. Let's say that. We are, we're going to get you in on this now. Are you good mechanically or, I mean, a bounce house for dogs just in general. It's just the vinyl. And then while you start with the corgi market, right? And because that's like, it's kind of like a little cult following around corgis. That's true. And then you branch out to retrievers and labs and bulldog, bulldog bounty house. Oh, bulldog bounty house. That would be pretty good.
Starting point is 00:49:09 Here's my question now. Do we make this for multiple dogs, like with, or is it just like a single, like single dog thing? I think you go start with single, right? And then you can branch out. The thing about dogs. And it could look, the bouncy house could look like a dog house.
Starting point is 00:49:29 Oh, that'd be cool. The thing I'm going to say though is dogs have teeth and they bite. So it's true. It's not a little kids. That's true. That's true. I think that's a detail we can work out later, Charlie.
Starting point is 00:49:43 Okay. All right. Plus, you know, you think there's so many different rubbers these days. And some of them have to be Corgi tooth resistant. I would think I would think that could have. Oh, yeah, I get it think enough. Yeah I think good. This is you need to start pitching your ideas to him. Mm-hmm. I think that that's what's got to happen But this is you need to start pitching your ideas to him. I think that that's what's got to happen.
Starting point is 00:50:05 If you you need to start annoying him with all the ideas that you come up with and then maybe he'll stop. Yeah, that's true. Yeah, you know what, that's a great tactic. Just mirror him. Fight fire with fire. Yeah, just be twice is just pretend to be him to his face. But when you going to happen.
Starting point is 00:50:25 I'm going to get invited to those like coworker after hours drinks. Hey, you want to come out of a cocktail? Oh, don't go. Don't get me wrong. I don't want to have a, I don't mind having cocktails, but I don't like drinking a coworker's. It's like, no, we need a lot. They're not doing what co-workers. It's a networking event.
Starting point is 00:50:41 Okay. Networking events are the worst. I hate networking. I don't think anyone's ever actually networked out of network event. It's just everyone passing out business cards and then they pulled. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:50:56 And then they just go and they go and ask those business cards. They pile, yeah, they go in the garbage or they go in the back of your desk. I don't know why anybody has business cards anymore. Yeah, I don't get it. But no, I can't, yeah, that's the worst. Hey, when people are trying to figure out what you do for a living, that was, yeah.
Starting point is 00:51:17 Anyways, I think that we got a business idea. Yeah, I think so. I think so. You keep calling in with these killer businesses. Well, hey, we're not the shark tank. We're the drunk tank. We're the drunk tank. Yeah. I always like the world.
Starting point is 00:51:31 We're a drink. Yeah, we can do whatever we want. I can. And I just, okay, I, I, I, I, the drunk tank. We're the drunk tank. I had different ideas. Um, and for that reason, I'm in. And for that reason, I'm also in keep calling.
Starting point is 00:51:46 You know what? Actually, encourage him to call into this podcast. I'd like to talk to this guy. I would like to talk to him too. Are you at work right now? I will. Yeah, but we're great now and I have seen him walk in. You walk around there.
Starting point is 00:51:59 Does he know our show at all or no? No, he's one of those kids that does not. How old is he? Or taken podcast. I think he's 25. Okay, let's talk to him. Commence him to call in and tell him that we are a business podcast. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:52:17 That we are looking to invest in stuff. Tell him we're like shark tank except drunker. I, I, I, I'll try doing a follow up. I have to be casual about it though. I can't do it. Just be like, oh, yeah, I follow this like Midwest, like business and events within podcasts called Belly'd Up and they just go to bar. I'll invest in this.
Starting point is 00:52:41 This is how I'll stir it up. You know, I'll greet him with this is free miles, you know, a good ice mountain, you know, quenches thirst a little bit right there. Yep. And then I'll sit down and you know, I'll have the power. You know, people say, Dr. Alex fix yet. Oh, yeah, yeah.

They were actually just talking that they're looking to get in the snow plow industry and they're looking to invest.

You can what's his name if he calls it without getting in trouble? You can legally say you plow you got plowed by me. You can that that'll be a thing. You got plowed by me.

Starting point is 00:54:39 And I think it was more about that the coworker doesn't do his job very good. I know. We were not at that. We never got to the room. Like if the guy was good at his job and had schemes, this wouldn't even about a call, but because the guy's bad at his job and he's got schemes, that's I think that was what was really grinded his gears. I get it. He was salty and he should say that salt
