Starting point is 00:00:00 Jake, I went golfing this past week. You proud of me? That's awesome. It was really fun. We went. It was my father-in-law, my brother-in-law, my brother-in-law, Brad, and a fifth guy. I don't know how many people you just named. Five. And a fifth guy. There were two brother-in-laws, Brad, Gary, father-in-law, and then a fifth guy. Have you ever played with five?
Starting point is 00:00:22 Yeah. I thought that was always four. I didn't know. Most commonly it is four. Okay. This course has five and we were like kind of worried like, okay, what's going to happen here? Most of my father-in-law is really good at golf. The rest of us have not played ever really. And we're like this poor fifth guy, what are we going to expect out of him? He walks up. So you just got paired up with him randomly. Randomly. Yeah. Wow.
Starting point is 00:00:45 Uh, my father-in-law like recognized his name. Like I said, they went to church together 15 years ago. Hadn't seen him in a long time. Uh, he comes up to the course. The dude is tall,
Starting point is 00:00:55 like six, six. Learn later that he got drafted by both the MLB and the NFL. Holy cow. And I was like, okay, this guy is a stud. Like this guy's cool.
Starting point is 00:01:04 Um, walks up and I was like, this is going to go so terribly for him. Turns out he was the most kind, perfect person to play golf with for people like us. Because every single time we ever hit one, I mean, the very first swing for one of my brother-in-laws off the tee, he whiffed it. And I mean, this guy was so kind. Breakfast ball, you know, all that stuff. At the beginning, our irons, we were just, like, hitting them straight into the ground, like ground balls.
Starting point is 00:01:31 That's all right. You hit one straight. You know, you went straight. It's going somewhere. You had the line. Yeah. You knew where to go. He's, you know, been there.
Starting point is 00:01:38 He's been a member of the course for 30 years. Hey, I've been playing this course 30 years. There's nowhere I haven't hit it before. There's no shot I haven't seen before. You're fine. At least, hey, everyone's got to start somewhere. Hey, I've been playing this course 30 years. There's nowhere I haven't hit it before. There's no shot I haven't seen before. You're fine. At least, hey, everyone's got to start somewhere. Hey, forward progress. Forward progress, yeah.
Starting point is 00:01:51 I think I've said that on the golf course before. He's like, I played football. Forward progress is a good thing. He's just the ultimate nice guy on the golf course. He was the kindest man. I told Catherine later, I was like, if everyone in Texas was like that guy, I'd move Texas Harpy.
Starting point is 00:02:02 Really? I love David. His name was David. He was the man. Nice guy, David. Yeah, genuinely so fun to play with. His name was David. He was the man. Nice guy, David. Yeah, genuinely so fun to play with. One of those guys that like when he hit it though and he did poorly, he would get so frustrated at himself, even though it was like a pretty nice shot.
Starting point is 00:02:14 You know, it was like it was a par three and he hit it on the green, but it was like pretty far like away from the hole. He was frustrated, you know, but at the same time we hit it somewhat straight. He's like, that's great content. Awesome. Yeah. So anyway, I just thought to myself, like how ridiculous could we push it as far as like, is he still going to be positive throughout everything that we're doing here? Um, so yeah, I just thought about what, you know, at least it's going straight.
Starting point is 00:02:37 Like you said, we all got to start somewhere. Uh, you know, you swung the club forward, you know, which is the right way to swing it. It's like, yeah, Hey, you, yeah. You know, which way you're supposed to be pushing the ball. You went backwards and forwards. Good job, Brad. Hey, Hey Brad, you're, you're bad at golf. That's cause you're a great dad. You don't have time to be going to the range every day. You're with your kids. You can tell, man, you're a great dad. Yeah. This guy over here, he's a scratch golfer, two divorces. Yeah. That guy's a terrible person. Yes. But you, I, it's good that you're bad at golf. He did tell me you're a good husband. At one point he's like, I can tell you play baseball. And I was like, I don't know if that's a compliment or, you know, not, he's like soft
Starting point is 00:03:16 hands, which is like a baseball player. I was like, soft hands. What are you turning to out there? Uh, what else did he say? Uh, you know, the ball that's okay hey natural ac natural ac out there on the course wow brad i've i've never seen a golf club slip out of someone's hand and end up in someone else's golf cart i thought i'd seen it all out here that's amazing that was great must play baseball you have with that thing must have done a bad flip hey at least you look good in your row back you know at least you're looking good in that rowback, buddy. It pulls the sweat right off your body. Whoa, Brad, I've never seen a car that nice get hit before. You broke the windshield of a G-Wagon.
Starting point is 00:03:55 I bet that guy has really good insurance. And how often do you get to meet the owner of a G-Wagon? Right. You're lucky. You are lucky, my friend. That's sweet. Oh, man. Hey, it's okay.
Starting point is 00:04:04 I hear that going and walking through that tall grass exfoliates your leg hair. So just go in there and just have some fun, all right? Hey, yeah, you're the lucky one. Wow, Brad, the way you talk to that cart girl, I've never seen somebody sexually harass someone like that. That was awesome. That was so good, Brad. I don't have anything to follow that up with. Play the music. I'm uncomfortable.
Starting point is 00:04:32 Uh-oh. Ooh, I think this tight beat means that it's going down with some random thoughts and white meat too. Midwest best friends eating fast food on repeat. So come along,
Starting point is 00:04:42 let's have some fun and go ahead, get on your feet because it's the Ghost Brothers Podcast. Everybody morning, we're taking round. Ghost Brothers Podcast. Ghost Brothers Podcast. The cart girl, man.
Starting point is 00:05:00 Has there ever been a boy? A cart girl? I was just telling Isaac that this past weekend. I was like, why don't they have cart boys? You know, Oh, you know, I think they're, I don't know. They could do a great job. Yeah. I never, I always get, I've only golfed, you know, a handful of times in my life, but I always get a little bit, not uncomfortable about the girl themselves, but just like how quickly I feel like I need to make the decision. I don't know. Golf is like a slow game, but it's also like,
Starting point is 00:05:25 there's always somebody coming up behind you. And so I never know what options they have. I'm always like, ah, just give me, you know, some kind of Gatorade and a water. That's great.
Starting point is 00:05:35 Yeah. Yeah. I think you just use choose stuff and they just kind of hand you stuff and they say, yeah, that's great. That's great. And then no one ever has exact change.
Starting point is 00:05:42 And then they say, oh, my credit card machine's down. You just Venmo me. And you're like, that sounds a little sketchy. You can do Venmo. Yeah, I've done it a couple of times. But then it's like, hey, it's needing to require the last four digits of your number.
Starting point is 00:05:53 And then it seems like you are hitting on them. And what are the first three digits just for my own record? Yeah. And area code is probably the same as the one in the golf course, right? Okay. Yeah, we did that with, I think it was we talked about on the podcast. We did that with Isaac one time or something that with, I think it was, we talked about it on the podcast. We did that with Isaac one time or something like that.
Starting point is 00:06:06 I kind of remember vaguely when you said like the last four, I love the idea of like, yeah, you just start a relationship on Venmo with the cart girl. Like you just send her a dollar and she's like, hey, just curious if you're interested
Starting point is 00:06:17 in meeting up for dinner later. Yeah, or just a way, like if you're just like thirsty, like, hey, we're on hole 15. Oh yeah. We're dying out here. That's a way. 10 bucks
Starting point is 00:06:25 can you come out and like if you're still working yeah that's not a bad idea i typically go no vinmo just cash you know straight credit card machines down it was nice i mean we were at uh my father in law's home course and so we just gave him the uh his code every time oh that's nice so i kept being like you know i kept pulling out the wallet like g, can I pay for this one? No, no, no. You know, pro you know, not promo code, promo code, GRKC 20 for row back 20% off. Uh, no, no. Here's my code. I golfed with Aaron tuning from St. Andre golf. And, uh, we're both sponsored by long drink. And so whenever the car girl come up, he's like, you have any long drink and like, look at me and wink. And she's like, what? He's like, ah, I'll just take a powerade at me and wink. And you're like, what? He's like, ah, nothing.
Starting point is 00:07:06 I'll just take a Powerade. Someday they'll have long drink, baby. Yeah, it's the fastest growing seltzer in the world right now. Oh, whose computer just went off? Mine. Bo spilled. Catherine just texted me. Let's see if I can pull it up.
Starting point is 00:07:21 Now my computer's going too slow. It's Bo's first day of Mother's Day out. That's why I was a little bit late getting the kids out the door. You know, he's supposed to be potty trained and he's definitely like three quarters of the way there. He's holding it in, but he's not, he's not initiating contact. A fourth of it still comes out. Yeah, kind of. She said, Bo spilled the water pin or the water wow pin all over his pants right before
Starting point is 00:07:40 we got there. So we had to change into his extra pants. So now he has no extra pants for his first day. The plot thickens on mother's day out with Bo. The pressure's on. Are the lights too bright for Bo's pants? That's what the people are asking. He was so excited. He thought he was going to mother's day out. Like Catherine, of course it was great. You know, great mom, great wife planned, like packed all this stuff for mother's day out before we left for Texas. Just so she'd be ready when we got home last night. That's great.
Starting point is 00:08:06 And so he thought, when we were leaving for Texas that morning, he thought he was going to Mother's Day out. So we had to break to him. He's like, no, it's actually like six days away, but it'll be awesome. Going to Texas right now. Yeah. He's so excited. And so we'll see.
Starting point is 00:08:17 He's a firecracker right now. Speaking of you and Catherine, you sent me a text last night. Did you mean to include Catherine on that text? Oh Do you even realize what you've done? No, I didn't I meant to include Rachel I figured
Starting point is 00:08:32 Oh, whatever She has not even told me anything about it That's funny I didn't reply because I was like I don't know if I don't want There'd be another option Can you undo text? Is it too late?
Starting point is 00:08:43 Try it Yeah, Brad sent me and Catherine a text that said, hey, triplets, I had this fun idea to surprise Catherine with some stuff. And I was like, I don't know if this is supposed to go to us. Initially, I texted just, I was going to text just you, and I was like,
Starting point is 00:08:57 I should include Rachel, too. Sometimes that helps, because then you're going to have to coordinate schedules anyway. Oh, man. So I told Rachel, I was like, Hey, what'd you think about Brad's texts? There's like a night we can do that. She's like, what do you mean Brad's texts? I was like, I don't know. And then sure enough, you had texted me and Catherine. I think, I think there's like a statute of limitations on when you
Starting point is 00:09:15 can take back a text. The main thing is that every user needs to have the updated iOS. She does not, I guarantee you. There's no way she does. There's no way she has the updated. There's no way she has like, whatever. If it's iOS 11, she has iOS six, like she's not even close, but that's okay. I mean, it wasn't like that big of a surprise. It was just one of those things. It was like, it'd be nice for her not to have to worry about, you know, the stress of, oh, we got to do this or I got to look this way. It's like, Hey, Jake and Rachel are here. We're going to go to a movie. Yeah. So Rachel, I've been talking movies lately, Barbie and Oppenheimer coming out soon. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:48 I think it'd be fun. Those. Yeah. I haven't seen previews for Barbie, but I mean, whatever. It's two great actress actors. See,
Starting point is 00:09:55 I haven't seen any previews for Oppenheimer. I did a project on all of that. Like in like eighth grade. It's like, yeah, I think I know I'm getting into, it'll be good. Christopher Nolan.
Starting point is 00:10:03 Good enough. Don't need to see it. Sure. Barbie. I was like, maybe I should watch a preview. Yeah. Because it's like, it's still Ryan Gos know I'm getting into, it'll be good. Christopher Nolan. Good enough. Don't need to see it. Sure. Barbie. I was like, maybe I should watch a preview. Yeah. Because it's like,
Starting point is 00:10:07 it's still Ryan Gosling, Margot Robbie, but you told me it looked good. And so that's why I'm, I'm basing off of you. I think I said it. It reminded me a lot of the plot of elf. It's like,
Starting point is 00:10:16 they live in this perfect world. Okay. And then they get put in the real world and they have to adjust. Yeah. So, Oh, so that's what it is. It's like,
Starting point is 00:10:23 they, they go, they like live. Okay. I didn't realize that. I think it's like they're Barbie characters. They leave the Barbie, whatever mansion. I don't know. Probably. Yeah. Playhouse. Playhouse. Yeah. And then they're in the real world and then they have to adjust and fun kind of reminded me of elf. So I don't know. I bet it's just like elf in every way. I bet they eat gum off the sidewalk. Yes. Gosh, what a movie.
Starting point is 00:10:46 All right. What do you want to talk about first, Jake? You've been everywhere. Yeah, I got like a thousand things written down. It's been like nine days since we recorded. I mean, I've done stand-up. I've been to the lake. It's been the 4th of July.
Starting point is 00:10:57 Yeah. Take your pick. Where do we start? I like going chronological. Let's start with stand-up. Chronological. Stand-up. We did Charlotte.
Starting point is 00:11:11 Echronological. Echronge. Sorry for interrupting, uh, uh, Charlotte, Nashville, Atlanta, really good cities, really fun weekend, only three days. And, um, yeah, golf during the day. It was awesome. Just one show at night ghosties every night. We have all these gifts here on the table that will open up. We got Brad in the Brad in the fake plants in the back. He's staring up at us. So everyone was great. All the shows were awesome. The Nashville show was at the Ryman, which if anyone 40 and older was like,
Starting point is 00:11:35 you're doing the Ryman. Dude, I thought that. Yeah, honestly, maybe it's not even age thing. It's just me being ignorant. Everyone else knew it but me. Every time I've ever listened to Nate Bargetzi, John Chris, all these guys, yeah, and then I got to do the Ryman. I felt knew it but me. Every time I've ever listened to Nate Bargetzi, John Chris, all these guys like, yeah, and then I got to do the rhyming.
Starting point is 00:11:47 I felt like I made it. So when I saw you in Nashville, I didn't think twice about it. And then I saw you at the rhyming and I was like, holy cow. This is kind of like the pinnacle, I feel like, for a lot of those comics who know that. Probably. And I was just none the wiser. I had no idea what I was getting into, but it was awesome.
Starting point is 00:12:04 It's all cracked up to me. It's super old. It's basically an old church. It's where idea what I was getting into, but it was awesome. It's all, it's cracked up to be, it's super old. It's basically an old church. It's where the, the original Grand Ole Opry used to be apparently. Right. And so they still do museums. Like while we're sound checking, there's just people walking around,
Starting point is 00:12:13 getting their picture taken. Really? So it was really cool, really historical, a lot of security. Um, and just the venue itself was so jam packed because it's like church pews.
Starting point is 00:12:24 Yeah. So, you know, someone made, I think Lucas made the joke, he's like, armrests take up a lot of space. Dude. Because without armrests, people are sitting on top of each other. Yes. And so, it was crazy. It was the wildest, like, just like optical illusion,
Starting point is 00:12:38 because we're at this huge place that I've been to before in Charlotte that holds 2,400, and then we go to this tiny church, and Trey was like, this holds 2,400. I was like, there's no way. Yeah. This holds the same amount as this huge amphitheater we're in. Dude, that's how, uh, Allen field house doesn't have, like, they have like one little section that has bleachers for Kansas basketball, like, and everything else is just, yeah, little seats. And like, we've talked about before, like they're pretty small little like sections for where you're supposed to sit and yeah it's hold 16 000 plus
Starting point is 00:13:05 that's just it's so much more fun because yeah it's just like everyone's on top of each other everyone's going nuts yeah it's the same exact idea you're right the the it's amazing how much those armrests can take over and over and over yeah they take up a lot of space they compound on each other it's so no armrest it was just the loudest feedback i've ever felt while performing oh i could have gone for three hours. You should have just like, I just do stuff going. Who's going to stop you?
Starting point is 00:13:30 Trey's not going to go out there. You know, Trey did run out. Turn off your mic. The maybe Trey ran out the Atlanta show, which this wasn't totally his fault. Like, uh,
Starting point is 00:13:42 our DJ, it wasn't my Cal. He's back with dude. Perfect. New DJ. He kind of with Dude Perfect. New DJ. He kind of jumped the gun, didn't play the intro video that he's almost supposed to play.
Starting point is 00:13:49 And just all of a sudden was like, give it up for Trey Kennedy. So Trey's like, oh my gosh, I'm going on stage right now. Runs out there with no microphone. It's just, doesn't even notice it. He doesn't have a microphone. He waves with both hands.
Starting point is 00:13:59 He's just doing like the president wave. Hello! Just waving. Yeah. And we all noticed it. We're like, Trey! He has no idea, just basking in it. And then eventually he's like, oh my noticed it we're like try he has no idea just basking in it and then but she's like oh my god he looks down he has a microphone and like runs off to the side we hand him one um that's so that's kind of funny but uh anyway yeah the rhyme
Starting point is 00:14:15 was just awesome it was just felt so easy you just get out there and it's just so loud wow a lot of moms here just erupts it's like the funniest joke I've ever heard. That pumps me up, dude. Yeah, it was really, really cool. One of those shows where you feel like, why am I not on Netflix? After that, you know, and then the next show. Was it like a Mount Rushmore of shows for you, for sure? Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, for sure.
Starting point is 00:14:34 Yeah. Because people love to ask, like, what's been your favorite venue? What's been your favorite show? And it's kind of hard. I don't know. They blend together probably. Yeah, they're all good for the most part.
Starting point is 00:14:43 They're almost all sold out. Every city I love. There there's something memorable at every, all of them. I feel like I never have a good answer for people, but now if nothing else, I can please them. Yeah. Say the right, the right. And no one will be offended if you say Nashville, like Nashville, as far as entertainment goes is like, Oh yeah, Nashville. Like, yeah, everyone loves Nashville. You know, if you're like, you know, I love, I loved, uh, Salem, Oregon. I love Madison, Wisconsin. And they're like, okay, well, I actually know some people from Madison. I hate those people like Nashville. It's like, oh yeah. Okay. The Ryman. Yeah, of course. Okay. Ryman. Yeah, sure. That's fun. Was it incredibly, incredibly hot last weekend in Texas for you? Um, it, yes, it was supposed to be like crazy hot and it, there was cloud cover for some of the days, but it was supposed to be like,
Starting point is 00:15:32 like temperature wise was supposed to be like one Oh five, one 10 or something. And I think it ended up being like in the high nineties or something. I don't know if it was just this widespread. Oh, it was crazy thing. Kansas was like that. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. Cause in Nashville and Atlanta, it was like, am I getting older? Am I getting more like sensitive to the heat or is this the hottest it's ever, ever been? It was crazy. I mean, anyone I talked to that day, like you can enjoy Nashville. You see some honky tonks. Like, no, we went golf. You went golfing in this today. Yeah. Me and Isaac, 18 holes, dude. And it was hot. Yeah. Yeah. Of course. It's hot. Yeah. It's hot. It's summer. It's it's july i was in roback it was fine you're fine roback uh yeah totally that's what i'm like katherine's family
Starting point is 00:16:09 is from texas and so i understand when they're like oh it's 30 degrees it's so cold and i'm like you're such a baby about the cold like get over it but i understand you're not used to it they are babies about the heat too like i i get there and i'm like if it's like 95 degrees and katherine's like oh it's crazy how hot it is and i'm like, if it's like 95 degrees and Catherine's like, Oh, it's crazy how hot it is. And I'm like, suck it up. You gotta, you gotta choose one or the other. Correct me if I'm wrong, but you felt this for the first like 24 years of your life every summer. Yeah. And in Kansas, it's that hot. It's like, that's how it goes. It's it's, it's what to expect. But yeah, I, uh, we went to the driving range one day and then we went golfing the next
Starting point is 00:16:43 day. Um, and at the driving range, we were there at like 10 in the morning. I think it's more humid in the morning. And I mean, I was sweating literally like I had my row back shirt on and like, there was one little spot that did not have like, you wouldn't have known that I was sweating. Yeah. Because, but except for this one little spot is like the tattletailing on me. I'm like, no, that's the real color right there. Um, yeah, yeah. It was just so, so where I probably like the tattletaling on me. I'm like, no, that's the real color right there.
Starting point is 00:17:05 Datlin. Yeah. Yeah. It was just so, so where I probably like a whole 12 Isaac and I were both just like, you kind of feeling a little bit like you're just like, like losing energy. And then I was like, you know what? I'm going to, I'm going to take myself mentally to like January and February.
Starting point is 00:17:18 It was like, I would do anything to be on a golf course. I don't care how hot it is. Right. Harness that. I don't care how hot it is. There's this argument on, on Twitter between Carrington Harrison, one of my favorite sports talk radio guys, Sam Mellinger, who's a sports writer.
Starting point is 00:17:32 Sam Mellinger claims he'd rather it be like, I think it's zero degrees or 20 some degrees every day than 98 degrees. And Carrington's like, you're crazy. 98. And so then in the winter, Carrington's always tweeting like, you'd truly rather have 20 degrees. Like you'd rather have this every single day than 98 and i'm like no i would definitely rather be hot all you can get used to the heat i cannot imagine have to bundle up no 365 days out of the year no way oh my gosh absolutely not you and like even
Starting point is 00:17:59 at camp like camp's gotten so soft since we've been there let's say our first few years there's no air conditioning in this weather. We had fans, like a big fan in our, in our cabin. That was blue. The blue out. Yes.
Starting point is 00:18:10 It's yeah. And you get used to it. Like even like you don't sweat as much eventually. Like you're just like, no, my body's just used to it. I've been warm for three months. And every once in a while, if we would like complain or comment about it,
Starting point is 00:18:21 Sparky, you know, our camp director sometimes would have like one-on-one, you know, meetings with you or something. He's like, you want to, you want to do a heat out in the, in the van. And so we'd sit in the van and we turn on the heat for like 10 minutes, have a conversation. Then you get out and it feels like AC again, baby. That's kind of nice actually. Yeah. Then 98 and humid. Just like, Oh, what a relief. Oh, finally I can get out here. No, it was hot, but we swam so much, dude.
Starting point is 00:18:47 Because Catherine's- This past weekend. Yeah, this past weekend. Catherine's family has a pool. If I had a pool, I would never do anything else. I wouldn't get anything else done. Yeah, unless I had a computer that was waterproof, I would never have anything going on.
Starting point is 00:19:01 Maybe. I took one shower the entire time I was there. Because every time- Really? I was just sweaty. Okay. Go to the pool. Yeah. Natural chlorine. Catherine, I told her that the last day she's like, what? One shower, six days. Yeah. I hadn't taken any at that point. I took one shower the very last day cause I didn't swim. That would be hard to, yeah. If you're getting wet in the chlorinated pool as a dude. Yeah. Timing. You got any, you feel good about that? Yeah. Yeah? Yeah. Good. Yeah. I mean, that's how it was at camp sometimes.
Starting point is 00:19:27 It was like, well, I did swim today. And it was- It's not that big of a deal. The pool looked clean. I mean, there's no way Bo would pee in that pool. He's potty trained for nine hours, I think. He's fine. Uh-huh.
Starting point is 00:19:40 Speaking of not showering often, this kind of works out. A couple days ago, I learned that my sister's lease is up. She's getting married to Braden in like three weeks. She's like, I don't really know what to do. I was like, come live with us.
Starting point is 00:19:50 Fun. And I was getting her hyped up. I was like, we could do all these certain things. You know, we can have all this fun. I was like, we do only have the one shower,
Starting point is 00:19:57 but I was like, Rachel, I don't shower that much. And then Kayla texted back and it all happened so fast. Like I text her, live with us. She's like,
Starting point is 00:20:03 great. I don't shower that much either. So, uh, a bunch of non-showering or, or you just adopt, you have, you have one shower,
Starting point is 00:20:11 but then you also have a bathroom with a bathtub. You just become a tub boy. Hey girls, take the shower. I'll be in the tub. Do not walk in on the tub. Really nonchalantly. Uh,
Starting point is 00:20:19 earlier this week, Catherine's dad was like, yeah, granddaddy, who's his dad, uh, granddaddy took baths. He didn't start showering until he was 94 years old.
Starting point is 00:20:27 Took baths every day for 94 years. First of all, I was like, what? The name granddaddy is awesome. Granddaddy. Granddaddy. Granddaddy and grandmama. I don't even know if you can be alive while having the name granddaddy. That's got to be a good thing.
Starting point is 00:20:39 Like once they pass on, it's like, yeah. Like you could be 45 years old, the youngest granddaddy ever. And if you're granddaddydy you are an old man like you're hobbling in the cracker barrel like it's the last day of your life yeah yeah granddaddy's great and he never showered until he's 94 dude just the time alone how long does it take to fill up a bathtub 10 minutes at least yeah depending on what kind of water pressure you got it's it's the armrest home utilities. It takes up a lot of time, a lot of space. A lot of water. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:09 Yeah. I had to stop. I was like, wait, did you say he had only taken baths? Anyway, kind of a wild. My grandpa, who's like in his 80s. Granddaddy? Granddaddy. He's, I don't think he showers either.
Starting point is 00:21:22 Really? He just takes baths. I mean, I don't know if he's never showered. I'm sure he's showered. Well, that's the thing. Maybe this guy showered before in his life, but the statement I heard was that he didn't start showering until he was 94 years old.
Starting point is 00:21:34 Wow. What a time to start something new, 94. It's probably because he's struggling a little bit to get in there, shimmy on in. Both seem difficult. I mean, having to ease yourself into a slippery bathtub, getting in and out doesn't seem easy in 94, but also maybe he took a shower but still sat down.
Starting point is 00:21:51 They have those chairs. Have you ever seen? Yeah, yeah. A lot of the dressing rooms at shows are handicap accessible. I think about sitting down. Don't hate it. Then I'm like, ah, someone else's naked butt's been here. Someone's definitely sat on that.
Starting point is 00:22:01 But it could have been Jerry Seinfeld's naked butt. He was here three months ago. You never know. that was a cool part about the ryman it's so historic like right before you go out it's like there is a picture of elvis performing on this stage like i took a dump in the same toilet that patsy klein probably did that's awesome yeah yeah exactly like anybody you could ever think of has probably performed there yeah because it's not only a comedy venue obviously it's a music venue too. So yeah, that's wild. Anyway, I don't know if they showered there. I don't know how they shower or how they bathe, but I have, with my sister moving in here, by the time you're listening to this, she's living here.
Starting point is 00:22:36 Wow. And Rachel and I started making like a bucket list. Fun. But I don't like the term bucket list when you're not, like you're dying soon. Well, you can kick buckets when you're not like you're dying soon. Well, you can kick buckets when you're alive. Have you never kicked a bucket in your life? I actually kind of like kicking buckets.
Starting point is 00:22:52 Surely I've kicked a bucket at one point in my life. Well, I called it the trip list. Okay. Cause it's before she loses the name triplet. Okay. Yeah. And one of the things on there is just not walk in on each other in the shower.
Starting point is 00:22:59 The rest of our things to, to accomplish, to finish, to start whatever, man, I hope no one walks in on each other's shower. Catherine's guest bathroom at her house has one door to get into the two-sink area. She's got six kids growing up, so they have this cool bathroom.
Starting point is 00:23:18 Yeah, two sinks. And then they have another door to get into the bathroom shower area. And every time, some people love to shut the door after they go number two in the shower or in the bathroom, you know, are you that guy? I think you, you turn the fan on, you leave it cracked. I think so too. Something to like show like, Hey, it's unoccupied. Go on in there if you want. Like, and so sometimes it's like, and there was like five of us using this bathroom. And so there's a good chance somebody is in there. And so I'm like, ah, but I got to go real bad. We're, you know, so then I have to walk to the other side of the
Starting point is 00:23:48 house to go to like this tiny little bathroom by the garage. So I don't know. So another bathroom was still available the whole time. Oh, like probably no, but this bathroom is literally right next to my room. And the other one, I mean, she's got a big house. You've been to it. You're just saying, yeah. Like if you're not in the bathroom, don't shut the door after yourself. I just,
Starting point is 00:24:10 just, just the, the etiquette of like, how do you for sure? No, no one's in there. Like doors open. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:15 Doors open. And sometimes the kids also go in that bathroom. So they leave the light on sometimes. So you can't even trust the light these days. Trying to throw you off. Anyway. Anyway, I've been sleeping on some bamboo sheets and I like them. My gosh, brother.
Starting point is 00:24:30 Viscose from bamboo, I should say. My gosh, careful. It's not just like, you know, shoots of bamboo. It's not Jungle Book. It's not this. I'm not sleeping on this. But man, we've been loving those sheets

We have Catherine was wearing her cozy shirt the other day. Look nice, but the bed sheets are wonderful. We haven't been sleeping on because we've been in Texas last six days. Came home last night, hot dog.
Starting point is 00:25:27 I did bring my pillow with me to Texas with the Cozy Earth pillowcase on it because I thought if nothing else, I'll have Cozy Earth on my face. You'll have a cozy head. A cozy head, yes. Good for you. It was a wonderful time in Texas with Cozy Earth on my face. If you don't know about them, it's luxury goods that transform your lifestyle. I mean, bed sheets, robes.

Starting point is 00:29:33 I'm so sorry for interrupting. No, I'm excited about what you're excited about. I just wrote down in my notes, we are now an ASVAB podcast. Yeah. It's amazing. It's amazing. I bet we had 35 people talk about the ASVAB. Well, let me tell you one better. For every person that talk about the ASVAB. Well, let me do you one better.
Starting point is 00:29:46 For every person that posted about the ASVAB, they DMed me privately about my Nobel Peace Prize mishap. I got it wrong. I got it wrong. I took the high road the whole time. The whole time I was watching all these comments and stuff, I was like, I'm just going to let them come in, baby. I know I messed up.
Starting point is 00:30:03 And I even looked it up and I was like, I think maybe it's Nobel Peace Prize, Nobel. You're like messed up. And I even like looked it up and I was like, I think maybe it's Nobel peace prize, Nobel. You're like, no, that's not it. Have you, is this your first time ever being wrong about anything? It's not. No, I will be wrong again. Good. You're going to be good at marriage. Just say, Hey, I was wrong. I will be wrong a ton of times. And I was on Jake's side about that. So man, I feel so you feel wrong too? Oh yeah, I'm wrong. You were so confident though. I was like, I guess I'm stupid. Yeah. I really threw myself off or I really made myself sound incorrect by saying the word peace. Because I thought that you didn't know you could win a
Starting point is 00:30:35 Nobel prize for anything other than peace. So I was like, oh my gosh, dude, there's math, there's science. But the whole time I kept saying peace, which is what made it wrong. Right. That was so funny. Yeah. Ross Ferens, I think made a little video about it. Kind of a curvy enthusiasm. I also, the same day that came out,
Starting point is 00:30:55 a correct opinions episode came out where I said that Elton John sang piano man instead of rocket man. People really came. Yeah. Piano man. I'm not a music guy. Common misconception. Probably there too. And as far as piano playing uh rock stars go elton john and billy joel are the i'm gonna say he's always playing the piano right he is the piano man in my eyes it's not like you're like yeah leonard
Starting point is 00:31:16 skinner like rock it's like no you're close i called him the piano man yeah i didn't call him gay man i knew what he's good at you got But he's talented. I also messed up last episode. I said to contact Ticketmaster. Apparently, the Kansas City show is not being sold by Ticketmaster. Apparently, it's some site called AXS. Okay. Whatever. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:34 You can figure that out pretty quick. Oh, wait. Speaking of Ticketmaster, that reminded me. Someone after the Nashville show, it doesn't matter. They were like, we enjoyed this so much. We were a little apprehensive after reading the reviews on Ticketmaster. And I was like, whoa, there's reviews on Ticketmaster? And they're like, yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:51 A lot of them are pretty positive, but there were a few people who said, I thought it was going to be a clean show. I wish I would have got a heads up about the opener. I was like, you? What? Specifically you. Yes. Not like Luke.
Starting point is 00:32:01 Yeah. What have you said? I don't know what they're referring to, but I'm self-conscious now. Okay. We have, we've been doing this podcast for a little bit now. Just do your 30 minute act real quick and I'll tell you. Okay. I'll buzz you anytime there's an inappropriate.
Starting point is 00:32:13 What city are we in? We're in Nashville. Ryman. Nashville. How we doing? Oh, moms. Yeah. Wow.
Starting point is 00:32:21 We're so close here in the pews, but I like it. Okay. Okay. Okay. Yeah. I know.. Okay. Okay. Okay. Yeah. I know. Stop interrupting. Stop interrupting.
Starting point is 00:32:29 I know we got a lot of, uh, we're, we're so excited to be performing, especially on a mom's night out. It looks like, uh, no, seriously, it looks great. I didn't know I'd be performing at a TJ Maxx tonight. That's got... T.J. Maxx is where somebody got murdered in Nashville. This is inappropriate. That's where it was. That is it.
Starting point is 00:32:54 Okay. Gosh, what a jerk. I'm going to AXS slash Ticketmaster to complain because everyone reads those reviews. I know. I was like, man, what a mom thing to not only leave a review on ticket master, but also for the other moms to be like seeking out reviews on ticket master
Starting point is 00:33:10 before I make tickets. So I somewhat looked into it. I was like, is this real? And the first like four reviews I read were extremely positive. They used, they said me like by name rather than just saying the opener, like we love Trey show.
Starting point is 00:33:21 Even his opener, Jake triple was amazing. I was like, this is awesome. People remember my name. It's I was like, I'm just going to stop at those four. Good. I am pleased with that.
Starting point is 00:33:28 Yeah. I don't want to see, because whatever I read, it doesn't matter if it's one crazy, weird person. It's going to get in my head. I'm going to second guess the joke. Totally. I'm just going to stick with what I'm doing. Oh yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:37 You remember the negative reviews so much more. I know. Like the negative YouTube comments. It's like, I, you can, we can brush past them, but still we remember them. Yeah. You know, it's like, Hey, tell us this, like, can you remember any like specific ones? Like, I remember there was one on, uh, every guy with a truck that was like, I'm so glad this lesbian drives a truck, something like that. It's like, okay, cool. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Like I, I, I do not think about that every day of my life or anything, but like, if you say like, Hey, do you remember a negative comment? Like, yeah, I do not think about that every day of my life or anything, but if you say, hey, do you remember a negative comment?
Starting point is 00:34:07 Yeah, I do. I remember that one. I won't say the full word. I know I've probably talked about this on the podcast before, but when I left the Jake and Josh, Juggling Josh channel, it's really heartfelt, just really serious. Just talking to the fans. Great all-time video. Just like, hey, this is what I want to do.
Starting point is 00:34:22 I want to move on. And the comment was just like, no offense, Jake, but you are, and it called me just the R word. And that one got you. Well, it was just, honestly, I don't know if that like sticks with me. It's just like, that's hilarious. They said no offense. And then also that, and also that they would call me that
Starting point is 00:34:38 because of this like professional decision I'm making in my life. Can we do no offense to Tymon real quick? Tymon. Go ahead. Tymon, no offense, but you look better with braces. Um, it's just, I mean, no offense, but there's a reason we're not putting you on a camera. And it's cause that perm looks ridiculous time and no offense, but we're not putting you on camera because of how much better you looked with the braces yeah no offense nice that was good i was just funny because i didn't have anything
Starting point is 00:35:11 new uh time and no offense but um your teeth now look significantly worse than they did like three weeks ago and that's why he's not on camera. Because you don't have braces on anymore. Got him. No offense, though. No offense. No offense, Tymon, but you're not very good at your job. So serious. No offense, Tymon, but... Your parents texted me. They want you out of the house. Yeah, you're done. You're out.
Starting point is 00:35:42 That's been no offense with Tymon. I just do a whole part of the grande boo roast where I just no offense people it's like boom roasted yeah no offense hey no offense put on some weight Harrison no offense Harrison
Starting point is 00:35:55 but you can tell you're married now because you do not care about your looks at all I said no offense no offense I said no offense with all due respect

I'm an app guy. Can't seem to find it. But yeah, Matt Van Donseler is going to... The crazy thing Matt was telling me,
Starting point is 00:37:42 he wasn't going to come, but then he found someone to pet sit for his elephant. I'm like, dude, you have a pet elephant? He's like, yeah, but it's like a mini-fint. You know, like they have mini-doodles out there. He's got a mini-fint. It's the Shetland pony of elephants. So he's like, it's only like 785 pounds. Stumpy, stumpy legs.
Starting point is 00:37:59 So you can move it. Like a normal half-ton pickup will transport my mini-fint, so I'm just taking it up to my grandma's uh she does still just bathe herself but she can also bathe the elephant he said grandmommy uh other people coming we got uh sullivan wagner yeah dude swag there swag swagner um yeah he's he's a riot like he's one of those guys that you'll know he's there because of the way he laughs like he's got a different laugh

Starting point is 00:39:17 Adam Prince, aka Cho Ye. Mr. Cho Ye's coming with his wife. Wow. His wife's name again, Tamara? Or is it Choye? That would be ridiculous, right? If his wife's name is Choye and he works at a place called Choye, that would be too much of a coincidence if they're both Choyes.
Starting point is 00:39:36 Yeah, I don't think it's that. I think it's Tamara. Tamara. Lizeth Navarro, she's coming. Lizeth? Lizeth? Lizzo? Lizeth. Lizeth. She's coming. Lizeth? Lizeth? Lizzo? Lizeth.

I think that's total in his lifetime. Really? Yes. He's a returning buyer. He's got seven orders. So I don't really know how a website works. I don't know how to read data.

It's going to be so fun. I'm so excited to root you on alongside of other ghosties. That'd be kind of a fun, unique, like it'll be so fun, like whatever I can say it over and over again, but it's just going to be amazing. Yeah. You got to laugh at the TJ Maxx joke. You already heard it. Okay. Pretend you haven't heard it before.

Starting point is 00:42:44 Because whenever I read it, I thought, that's right. You're right. Yeah, I don't know. I don't, I really, after how many mess ups I had last week, I'm like, I'm a little sensitive. Like, I don't know anything. I don't remember anything. Nothing I say is right. Dude, that's called marriage. You're, you're getting there. Honestly. It's like, man, you get humbled in marriage. It's like, okay, I thought I had it all figured out. And then you get married and you're like, whoops. So I'm an idiot. Still some blind spots. Got a lot to learn. Yeah. Not as smart as I think I am. Very humbling. In a good way.
Starting point is 00:43:06 In the best way, Jake. I have a similar, maybe it's not that similar, but I have a story from this weekend. It's, so first of all, Charlotte's show was great. Rachel's cousin was there. Cousin Lexi, her maid of honor.
Starting point is 00:43:19 Yes. Tall Lexi. Yep. Isaac inquired. She's still not available. I walked down the aisle with lexi on the way back did you really yes how was it well electric electric electric wonderful uh but so i was fine i'm making sure i like have some time to her in the lobby talk to her
Starting point is 00:43:37 there's like all these ghosties that are in line and then the venue just like probably kicks out like 40 people they're in line i don't know if they're all ghosties, but probably like 40 people just like get kicked out. I'm like, oh my gosh. It made me so sad. I was so bummed. I wanted to talk to somebody. So if you were at the Toronto show,
Starting point is 00:43:53 know that no one felt worse than I did. I'm like, all right, hey, tomorrow's a new night. We're going to get it back. I go out early, right after the show. I'm like, I want to have plenty of time out there. And I don't even get to the lobby. I see some ghosties. And- What do were in the venue itself? Yeah, a little bit in the auditorium still. And the security guard comes up and there was like three ghosties there. So you guys could
Starting point is 00:44:17 verify this story. But he was basically like, all right, I need all you guys out of here unless you have a pass and starts going down the line of people. He's like, no pass, no pass, no pass. Comedian. Well, wannabe comedian. Just the opener. Wow. Just said that to my face in front of all these Ghostbusters fans.
Starting point is 00:44:38 And I think my mouth was agape. I don't know exactly what I did. I was just like, oh my gosh, okay. And then he just walked away. And I was like, thank you for the insult. And then he turns around he's like hey no no no no hey you're comedian right i thought you could take a joke i was i was just being i was joking with you yeah while he's like doing this i'm like okay didn't say my joke then another like security guard like an usher comes up and it's this younger woman she's like i thought you did great your show was so good tonight it was so fun and i, that's, that's how you compliment someone. That's the best way to do it. That I
Starting point is 00:45:09 understand. He's like, no, I was just, you know, I was just messing, you know, whatever. I was just like, yeah, Hey, I didn't, I said no offense with my eyes. My body language was very no offense. Yeah. I knew you were the comedian, not just a random bystander. Yeah. But it was just like crazy. It was like a level of like rudeness to my face. Just like I, you were the comedian, not just a random bystander. Yeah, but it was just like crazy. It was like a whole new level of rudeness to my face. Just like, you know, we just sold out the rhyme and I'm on cloud nine. And the security guard's like, eh, want to be comedian. And then once I said something, then he was like, no, I was joking. It's like the real life version of negative comments on the YouTube.
Starting point is 00:45:40 If we ever respond to anybody, they're like, well, I love you guys. You know, I'm just just it's all in good fun or something like that it was wild man but uh yeah some ghost he's got a front row seat to it so you handled it pretty well though it's not i mean it sounded like you weren't like super mad back no i was very like calm but i very much like stood up for myself or just like uh you know i don't think you should talk to me that way especially like in front of these fans like what just weird how am i supposed to react to me that way. Especially in front of these fans. What a weird... How am I supposed to react to that?
Starting point is 00:46:07 That's better than what I would have... I would have made fun of him back. Yeah. I would have been like, you're a bouncer. People do your job with a barcode scanner at a Walmart. It's not that hard, dude. We could very well... You're not scary to me at all.
Starting point is 00:46:24 I don't know. It was weird. So then we get kicked out of there, and he puts us in, like, this, like, hidden, like, corridor. I don't know where we're at in this place. It was, like, I don't know. It was, like, meant to be used to, like, you know, hide people or something. Like, we were just so hidden, and we're there for a while. And then I get done with the ghosties.
Starting point is 00:46:41 There's this one guy in line by himself. Always a little bit of a red flag. If someone makes sure they're last in line to talk to you and they're by themselves. If it's a girl, they want you. Yeah, they want something. They're trying to sell you chili. Yeah. And this guy was like, I've just had this kind of crazy experience. He's like, hey, do you guys take feedback?
Starting point is 00:47:03 I'm like, man, I don't want to hear feedback right now. I don't want to hear feedback. You're like, yeah, but we give it back real quick. So go ahead. I really did just have maybe the best show I've ever had. I'm like, this guy's about to give me feedback. Sorry, this is in Nashville? This is in Nashville.
Starting point is 00:47:16 Yeah. And luckily, it wasn't about anything I said. It was like, hey, when Trey does the music, can you put lyrics up on the screen? And I was like, oh, that's not really. That wasn't me singing. But you're part of the show to him. You're not just the wannabe comedian.
Starting point is 00:47:29 Yeah. You have some power in putting the lyrics up. True. I was just expecting, like, man, he waited in line for a long time, and then it was just something that had nothing to do with me. Like, he really wanted to say that.
Starting point is 00:47:39 Yeah. So then we leave the corridor, go out to the lobby, and then I start to see ghosties. But, like, they still, they were kicking people out. It was pouring down rain, and they were kicking people out into the lobby, and then I start to see ghosties. But they were kicking people out. It was pouring down rain, and they were kicking people out into the rain. I think I read this on the Facebook group.
Starting point is 00:47:50 Yeah, it was crazy. Like Andrew Thurber, he was there. I didn't get to talk to him. He got kicked out into the rain. There were so many other ghosties that I would have loved to have seen. Of course, I ran back into the guy who gave me the feedback. He was like, my wife didn't believe me that I talked to you in that hallway. Tell her.
Starting point is 00:48:04 Tell her what we talked about. Yeah. And like he said he wanted the lyrics on the screen because he has trouble hearing. Yes. Yes. He told you I'm legally deaf. I told you. So I got to talk to that guy plenty. Didn't get to talk to Thurbush, but no way. Talk to him a good
Starting point is 00:48:17 amount. Dude, like, is that enough of a problem where you should start like coordinating some after party? I know that's probably a lot to do in every single city, but like, it seems like that happens. I don't know. 30% of the time. Yeah. I had the same thought. I'll get back to you guys. I'll think about it. Let you know. Cause yeah, there's gotta be a better way. Cause I want to hang out with you guys and security does not want us to. Yeah, man. Wild. Yeah. And like, I'm not asking that much. much i'm not i'm not condoning or like
Starting point is 00:48:46 encouraging ghosties to like get in fights with security but like see how far you can push it i say just say no offense and then just a quick right jab yeah into their nose no offense that's that's the guy's name who fenced in high school no offense no offense and then you take out your fencing sword yeah hey no Hey, no offense. Yeah. Because it's like, what are they rushing off to do? You know? Oh, that's when I confronted her in Charlotte. Once all the fans left, I was like, hey, why did you kick out all those people?
Starting point is 00:49:14 It was just one show. Yeah, it was one show. There's nothing afterwards. I was like, I come out here because I want to see them and they want to see me. Like, it's a symbiotic relationship here. Like, this is a good thing. Like, why'd you kick them out? She was like, we just
Starting point is 00:49:25 gotta get going. I was like, well, I was told the venue curfew isn't until 11pm. It's like 9.45. Is that right? And she was like, yeah, it's just one of those nights. I was like, what a lame response. Just one of those nights. That's too bad. This means a lot to me, but it means so much
Starting point is 00:49:42 to them. And you just kick them out. I know it's just part of your job. It's just another night for you. But I'm trying to make memories. Right. You're building a brand, baby. You're building relationships. Yeah. Yeah, that's too bad. That's crazy when you said 9.45 and 11 o'clock. So it's like, okay. You're always kicking people out
Starting point is 00:49:58 hours before they need to. Right. That's terrible. Because we have an app where everything is coordinated. Hey, here's all the flights. Here's when soundcheck is. Here's everything. Venue curfew. Always look at that. That's terrible. Because we have an app where everything is coordinated. Hey, here's all the flights. Here's when soundcheck is. Here's everything. Venue curfew. Always look at that. It's always midnight or something. It's always a crazy late time. Yeah, because it's probably just a default for concerts, like music stuff and stuff.
Starting point is 00:50:15 Yeah. Yeah. I'm sorry. Well, okay. Now you should start bringing large amounts of speakers and things that roadies would have to pick up themselves just to like, give yourself more time. Cause that seems like, like, I bet if the roadies are still doing their thing, they're not gonna be like, Hey, you gotta get out of here. You know, what's crazy now that you say that is like, Isaac is still very much in the lobby,
Starting point is 00:50:37 still like sorting and like unpack, like packing up merch when they're being kicked out. So it's not like they can just leave right away anyway. Do you use that? It doesn't make any sense. Yeah. Now that I think about it, be like point, point to him and make sure Isaac,
Starting point is 00:50:49 Hey, take your time. Yeah. Like at Oklahoma Joe's in Kansas city barbecue, like the original has a small location. I'll, I'll get to a point here. Don't worry.
Starting point is 00:50:58 Small, small location. It was 1945. Granddaddy had just perfected his barbecue sauce. And, and there's only so many seats, and you're not allowed to go and sit down and save reserve tables or anything.
Starting point is 00:51:10 But every time when you order and you get your food almost right away, you turn around and there's always seats available. And that's because they intentionally make that line go as fast or as slow as they need to, to serve people based on how many seats are available. So that's what Isaac needs to start doing. He needs to be like looking like, okay, there's only four people to talk to Jake. I'm going to pack up this quick. Okay. There's 55 people here. You know, it's like
Starting point is 00:51:33 a mini grande boo and from gross runs out life. Uh, I need to go really slow on this thing. And that way Jake can point to me and say, he's not even close to being done. Look at this. He has Mount. I think he's got more merch than he started with he bought merch from other people he's gonna sell it tomorrow in atlanta he took shirts off people's back like there's all these shirtless people in line see see third bush that is a great idea yeah now i think about like what they can't even leave anyway why are they in such a hurry do you think if people like if if andrew third bush is waiting in line to talk to you and he takes off his shirt, is he less likely to get kicked out? If I were a bouncer, I would do. I would not want to do.
Starting point is 00:52:11 Kick me out. Do it. I would not want to push somebody and like shove somebody out the door. It's shirtless. I'm just saying that's what you're supposed to do. If you someone's trying to fight you, you don't want to fight. You're just like take your pants off because no one wants to like kind of be aggressive with that. Dude, never mind.
Starting point is 00:52:24 Yeah, dude, you got more stuff going on go ahead yeah go ahead and get out of here so think about next time third bush yeah speaking of uh sausage you had any good rangers lately dude i had a lot of good rangers in texas honestly i did we had steaks we had chicken and we had their wagyu beef burgers wagyu beef burgers wagyu beef burgers. Wagyu beef burgers. Wagyu beef burgers. We did. We had the burgers for 4th of July. Wonderful time. We are sponsored by Good Rangers. Y'all know them. Y'all love them. I forgot about it. I was just talking meat.
Starting point is 00:52:53 Hey, let's talk meat real quick. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, we're sponsored by them. We're sponsored by goodrangers.com. They gave us a promo code. The promo code is GRKC. The promo code gets you an additional $30 off your order. What? I don't know they sponsor us. $30 three three oh point zero zero if you dollars prefer two decimal yeah usd really three dollars dude yeah that's what it says well what are who is good rangers anyway who so who do we got here who Who have I got? So they sell the best stuff.
Starting point is 00:53:28 Oh, best stuff like PlayStation 2s? No. N64s. Let me go show you. Go. I'm readily available. It's going to take him 17 seconds. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight.
Starting point is 00:53:45 Oh, he's fumbling. Nine, 10, 11. Oh, he can't find it. 12, 13. Oh, yeah. Whoa. There it is. I think by the time he sat down, it was 17 seconds.
Starting point is 00:53:57 Holy cow. Here it is. And in convenient bags now? Convenient bags. Yeah, they had boxes. Now it's convenient bags. Show us what you got. You got Italian.
Starting point is 00:54:06 Italian seasoned chicken breast. Boneless. Skinless. Yep. That's Bo's favorite. Just how I like it. Boneless. Skinless chicken breast. Yeah, baby. Another one. Same thing. Yeah, it's just all chicken. They got garlic pepper chicken. My gosh. It's all just nice.
Starting point is 00:54:24 It says to cook thoroughly. Do you? Yeah. Good. I swear. I swear. So I am going to read this thing that they sent to us here. So did you hear the news?
Starting point is 00:54:35 The FDA approved lab grown chicken for sale. Yes. Meat. Yes. Yes. Meat formed in a bioreactor will soon be coming to a store near you. If you prefer meat grown in a pasture instead of a Petri dish, then you need good ranchers.
Starting point is 00:54:48 Not only do they sell real meat from real animals, but they sell the best meat in the country has the offer. The best meat country has offer from take house quality cuts to beef cuts of beef to better than organic chicken. Everything good rancher sources from local farms in America. Without getting too far into the weeds, I do care a lot about farmers. Obviously Jake grew up in a family of farmers married into a family of farmers, uh, and good
Starting point is 00:55:10 ranchers supports American farmers rather than this lab grown crazy things that are going on today. Uh, so if you want to also support American meat delivered to your door, go to good ranchers.com use promo code GRKC for $30 off. You will not regret it. I, everyone that's ever gotten is that we were talking, we talked about good ranchers for probably like an hour in Texas, like just how good it is. Cause you get, we had Brooks there, you know, chef Brooks was there. You see an hour long ad rate in Texas. It was just awesome. And like I got done talking to Brooks and I would talk to Josh about it. And we talked about their fajita chicken or, you know, whatever, all this different stuff. So, um, no matter what you get, you will be
Starting point is 00:55:46 satisfied with good ranchers. We love them. You guys will love them. Check them out. Go get them. Speaking of America, how was your fourth? It was wonderful. Um, yeah. So like I said, we were in Texas, um, on the actual fourth of July is when we went golfing, which was fun. Let me just tell you a few highlights of golf. Um, the actual golf course that we went to is an easy drive, but it's still like a little 20, 25 minutes away. We get to the course plenty early, going to hit some range balls. And we had gone to the range the day before, uh, we open up Gary, my father-in-law's trunk. And he, in a pretty serious, like mean tone was like, where are your clubs? And I know him well enough to know, like,
Starting point is 00:56:25 that's his like joking tone most of the time I thought. And so I was like, yeah, right. Good one, dude. They weren't in there. I forgot to, we, we had taken them out the day before and I forgot to pack them back in. And so I just thought, and I'm left-handed, so I can't play with other people's clubs. Uh, I just thought to myself, I, I'm not going to play golf today. I'm just going to have to sit here. Are not going to have rental lefty clubs. Really? See, I didn't even know. I mean, so I call Catherine MVP, Catherine Ellis, just so awesome. Literally. I said, I left my clubs at home. I want to meet me at the Valero in van Alstein, which is like halfway, basically as soon as possible. She goes, okay, sounds good. Hangs up the phone immediately. No questions.
Starting point is 00:57:04 I don't even know if she put on shoes. She just ran, got the golf clubs, put them in the van, hustled down there. 1222 tee time. Got home, got back to the course. 1218. No problem. No problem. That is awesome of Catherine. And also what kind of stinks about golf is like, if you don't like have all the equipment, you just straight up can't play sometimes. It's like you can show up to a basketball court and still play basketball. because i bet you came there in shoes yeah yeah they might not be the best shoes you can still play basketball as long as you got a ball like yeah yeah you'll be fine but golf clubs yeah especially when you're left-handed no yeah totally i was like am i gonna just go right hand this entire no i'm gonna putt i'm just gonna watch
Starting point is 00:57:40 i'm going to watch the entire thing and just sweat my baguettes off. And anyway, so MVP of the day, forgot my clubs. And it was one of those things where like, I can hear that soundbite in my head of my father-in-law. Where are your clubs? And like, and of course, cause he said like, he's jokingly does stuff like that sometimes. I'm like, and I was like trying to be like fast enough to not fall for it. Like, yeah, good one.
Starting point is 00:58:06 Two other things. I got two pars, not bad fall for it. Like, yeah, good one. Um, uh, two other things. I got two pars, not bad. Solo pars. Yes, dude. Not bad. That's wild. I know. Uh, one of, I think they were both par fours. Uh, I hit, I got on the green on a par three one time and then I three putted. So that happens a lot. That's okay. That's going to happen a lot more. I was like, what if I get a birdie? I can't wait till Jake. Yeah. I mean, you had a birdie putt birdie putt. That's okay. That's going to happen a lot more. I was like, what if I get a birdie? I can't wait until Jake. Yeah. I mean, you had a birdie putt. Birdie putt. That's pretty cool.
Starting point is 00:58:27 It was a, it was a far birdie putt, but still it was a birdie putt. Sounds like on the two pars you made, you probably had a birdie putt too, right? You just two putt for par. Um, no, I think I, I think I hit some putts. I know I hit at least one nice putt. Oh, I see what you're saying. Okay. Okay.
Starting point is 00:58:40 Okay. Is that what you mean? Like, no, I see now. Like I got on the green and then I just made it in on my first putt. Yeah. Yeah. Um, got up and down. Would that be what you did?. Okay, okay, okay. Is that what you mean? No, I see now. I got it on the green, and then I just made it in on my first putt. Yeah. Yeah. Got up and down. Would that be what you did?
Starting point is 00:58:48 Up and down, yeah. And I was using a right-handed putter because I don't have a lefty putter, which I don't think I'm any better left-handed than right-handed putting. There's not a crazy amount of coordination. Right. The putting stroke. Just keep it straight, more or less. It was the stimp that day.
Starting point is 00:59:01 Yeah. Ah, stimpage. It was the stimpage. There was some crazy stimpage because it had rained a bunch the night before. So man, the stimp was going nuts. Trey and I filmed a Mood Swings video yesterday where, you know, it's like first time golfer on the putting green and he's like, hey, can
Starting point is 00:59:13 you mark your ball? I'm out. And I was like, you know, we always had a feeling. I'm proud of you, man. No, I'm like, okay. Okay. All right. Yeah. That shirt tucked in a little too tight. Yeah. You could fit in the large where you wear a medium.
Starting point is 00:59:28 We all know why you sing a lot. You, you spray tan. Didn't you? Like you were way too tan for February. You care about being sweaty out here more than we do. I did say you would take off your shirt a little quicker at that show than everybody else. No, two pars.
Starting point is 00:59:45 I forgot my clubs. Oh, and I didn't lose a ball all day. No way. Until the 17th hole when I lost two in one hole. That I mean, that dude, that's so impressive. I know. I can't believe you made two pars. I know.
Starting point is 00:59:59 I also can't believe they didn't have you scramble. There's like, hey, we got a bunch of guys who don't ever really play. Everybody played their own ball. That sounds like a potential nightmare. My two brother-in-laws eventually did scramble. There's like, Hey, we got a bunch of guys who don't ever really play. Everybody played their own ball. That sounds like a potential nightmare. My two brother-in-laws eventually did scramble because they were like, this is, I didn't, I don't know the etiquette. I still don't know if I do because I don't think I know it. We're playing ready golf. You know what that means? Just hit it when you're there. Yeah. Basically like, Hey, if you, if you can swing, swing. Oh, I love it. That's the only way I would prefer to play. I was like, this is because I'm,
Starting point is 01:00:22 I'm not a practice swinger. Maybe one. Good for you. I'll just go up there and whack it. Look, I'm as good as I'm going to need to practice. It doesn't do me one lick of good. I'm sure it eventually will because I've never seen anybody that's good at golf, not practice swing. But yeah, I was like, I'm here. Well, that's funny.
Starting point is 01:00:38 It's kind of a bell curve. I feel like, because if you're really good at golf, you don't practice swing either. Oh really? Yeah. Yeah. And it sounds like if you're just starting, you also don't practice swinging. Like, ah, what does it matter? Here's my, my mentality is like, I'm already bad. And so I'm swinging a lot more strokes than everybody else. I don't also want to take up even more time by practice swinging
Starting point is 01:00:56 too much. Yeah. But then of course it's like, okay, but if you practice swing, maybe you wouldn't be as bad, you know, but I'm like, I don't want to be more annoying because my father-in-law is really good at golf. Like he's, I thought he was going to be like old man. Good. He's like, good. You're straight up. Good. Yeah. Like he, like I've seen like videos of Arnold Palmer now, you know, he's kind of rickety when he swings. He looks like straight nutcracker. Okay. No, my father-in-law is still like legit good. And he's got like these new clubs, new irons. He was trying to, he's got these GPS things on the end of them, all this different stuff. GPS on the end of his iron.
Starting point is 01:01:26 Do you know what I'm talking about? I've never heard of this technology. I think that's what he was. I believe it. That's crazy. It's like these little nubs on the end of your iron. Oh, you like, you would like stuff it into like the grip. Yes.
Starting point is 01:01:36 And then something like this, he said after 90 holes or something like that, it'll give you enough data to where it knows what you're hitting and how far you're hitting each iron. And so then it'll help you like basically caddy for you and say, you should use the seven iron versus the five or something. How does it know how far the ball went? Also, does it know if you're practicing? Does it know if you made contact with the ball or does it know what happened to your swing? Great questions. Should have asked more. I just said, that's really cool.
Starting point is 01:02:00 Okay, cool. It's ready golf. I got to go. They don't have long drink. I got to go. So what'd you end up shooting? I got to go. They don't have long drink. I got to go. Um, so what'd you end up shooting? I have no idea. I don't remember. Good, good litmus test. Honestly. Yeah. There were a few times where I was like, I forgot to count how many strokes I had, but my father-in-law, most of the time he's like, I gotcha. I know how much he did. I was like, okay. Yeah. Um, but yeah, I lost two balls on one hole. Um, one of them hit the cart path and just went somewhere. I don't know. Somebody's kind of fun when it hits the car path.
Starting point is 01:02:27 It just keeps rolling and rolling. Like how's this? And I didn't even know the cart path was over there. And all of a sudden the ball lands and it goes 20 feet in the air. And I was like, what happened? Kind of fun. Yeah. I looked like such an amateur though.
Starting point is 01:02:37 I was like, it just, it just something, something's over there. Whoa, whoa, whoa. There's a trampoline over there. I have like a gopher's back. What was that? And then I hit one in the water in the next shot. I was like, oh. He gave me Pro V1s. They're nicer. I think that was like
Starting point is 01:02:49 mentally, I was like, I don't want to lose these things. Anyway, but overall, it was a lot of fun. You should play another solo round of golf and keep score. Keep it legitimate. That way you can just be like, all right. When I first started, I was shooting a 110. Look at me now. In six months, I shaved
Starting point is 01:03:06 20 strokes off my game or whatever. Give me some etiquette lessons, if you know them. Number one, there were multiple times where I just wanted to turn my hat backwards. Yes or no? Go crazy. Even at a nicer club course? Yeah. You're in a college
Starting point is 01:03:21 shirt. Yeah. Okay. Tucked in my row back, by the way. Oh my gosh. Yeah. It looked all right. Um, okay. And the number two, this is more,
Starting point is 01:03:28 this is not as much etiquette as it is logistics. I think it'd be a great workout. The, the, the six, six guy that was with us walked the whole time. Cause he had like a herniated disc and he's like, I can either walk and play 18 or ride and play nine.
Starting point is 01:03:41 I was like, okay, interesting. He's like, I think sitting down in the cart mess with his back or something. Okay nine. I was like, okay, interesting. He's like, I think sitting down in the cart mess with his back or something. And I'm like, it'd be a great workout to walk the course, but I would also feel that same hindrance of like the backswing or the practice swing idea of like, I don't want to take up too much time. So how, how hard would it be to figure
Starting point is 01:04:01 out how to like play by myself? Is that impossible? Have you ever played by yourself? Yeah. I play by myself. I've never walked 18 by myself, but it's not that much slower than writing a card. Cause you get to walk directly to your ball. We were waiting on that. He was waiting on us.
Starting point is 01:04:15 Yeah. Yeah. So it's not that much slower. Um, but do you think it's like how, if you were to, cause I don't, I don't,
Starting point is 01:04:22 I, I, I'm too much of a perfectionist to like play with a bunch of random strangers by myself and like just be so embarrassed and insecure about like i don't want to be bad in front of other people yeah either come with us sometime yeah and everyone will play their own ball or go up to a course like painted hills you'll be the only guy there and then you'll play with yourself yeah yeah okay it's like one of the only courses in kent city that isn't like full all the time. Oh, really?
Starting point is 01:04:45 Good to know. Painted Hills. Really easy. Good. Anyway, it was a fun time. I need to play golf sometime. Yeah, get in on this, Tymon. Sounds fun. Yeah, there were a few different quotes. One of them, just from my father-in-law, it's wonderful to hear. Nice shot, Brad. Wow, great
Starting point is 01:05:01 shot, Brad. Multiple times he was very positive. And then David, the most positive guy in the world, he's like, there's no way this is your first time playing golf by yourself. Yeah. Isn't that funny? It is. I don't know what to tell you because my drives were good. I had some good drives. They kept saying that I like height is good on drives. And I was like, I don't know. Are you sure? To me, there's like a point of diminishing returns. If it goes too high, then it's not going to bounce very far. Yeah, there's just like an ideal angle. I don't know what it is.
Starting point is 01:05:33 I was like, I think I'm hitting them too high. They're like, no, no, that's good. You're hitting them high. I was like, okay. Anyway, fun times on the golf course. When it comes to the backwards hat, that also might help you out if you start sweating pretty badly. Like when I was playing with Aaron Tuning,
Starting point is 01:05:46 it was so humid, so sweaty that his sweat from his head was dripping down the front of his hat onto his putter while he was putting. And so, yeah, that's a good time to turn your head backwards. Wow, that is really sweaty. He was really sweaty.
Starting point is 01:05:58 He was walking probably. No. He was not. Oh boy, he's one of those. But yeah, Tymon, you need to golf. I should. I know that I would be so bad, but it'd be fun. What's your previous sports experience?
Starting point is 01:06:10 Nothing super organized ever, but some soccer with homeschool group. Mission trip soccer. We get it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I played soccer in the Dominican with kids who didn't know English. That's fun. Yes. Oh, soccer is the best.
Starting point is 01:06:24 Just any country, any culture, just like everyone can play soccer. Yeah. It's so fun. Oh, yeah. It's a world's game. Yeah. And then I guess just like, yeah, other random basketball, stuff like that, but never like a team.
Starting point is 01:06:37 Okay. Well, golf's going to be hard for you for a while. Well, golf's easy, so it should be fine. No, it is fun. And then golfing, I've been to Topgolf once okay and I was pretty bad but
Starting point is 01:06:47 it was fun Topgolf is a great gateway it really is into the sport yeah it's what got me into it yeah
Starting point is 01:06:54 and I think it's what's kind of getting you into it for sure because yeah you get a lot of repetition and if you fail no one notices because you're three stories up
Starting point is 01:07:02 and so it still looks like it went kind of far and I mean they have an angry birds game. Yeah, true. Which we're always, we always play loving.
Starting point is 01:07:09 I'll go anywhere that has an anger birds. Oh dude. Yeah. Anyway, it's fun. My, my father-in-law also gave me a lot of like little tips that helped. That's nice.
Starting point is 01:07:17 Yeah. Sounds like he's the guy to get tips from. Yeah. He's, he's the man. And it was one of those things where I was like, I think he's having fun with this, but also are we just like dragging them down?
Starting point is 01:07:25 But he made it sound like he hadn't played in a while. So this was like good I think he's having fun with this, but also are we just like dragging them down? But he made it sound like he hadn't played in a while. So this was like good for him to get out. Fun. Can we talk about one other thing from last week's episode? And it was that time we just ran away with the schmores somehow. Oh, also. And when we recorded last week, it was like, oh, Brad, one schmores, he picked the order.
Starting point is 01:07:41 By the time we were done recording, I pulled ahead. And then like, I stayed ahead. Oh yeah. Did you know that? Oh, you're talking about like two weeks ago. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I don recording, I pulled ahead and then I stayed ahead. Oh, yeah. Did you notice? Oh, you're talking about two weeks ago. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I don't think I ever saw that. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Jake won pretty decidedly. It was crazy, but when we recorded, it was... It was like I was winning by 5% or something. And then all of a sudden, you probably won
Starting point is 01:07:57 by 10 or 15%. Either way, got another winner on my belt. But yeah, last week, Tymon, I mean, just ran away. Got like 80% of the vote. I should look back at the stats, but I think ever since Tymon started joining the Schmores, I have lost more than I've won. I used to be pretty good on the Schmores, and now, yeah, but Tymon.
Starting point is 01:08:16 Tymon, no offense. No offense, Tymon, but your picks were crap last week. It was guys you want on your team, and Jake and I are saying like these like really obscure, like, you know, guy who got a beard in seventh grade, Chris Tomlin,
Starting point is 01:08:29 Chris Tomlin, you know, and time is like, uh, someone who's really, really smart. Someone who's like good at things. Someone who's like really funny that everyone likes.
Starting point is 01:08:41 I'm like, okay, yeah, you're going to pick those guys. So I've, I'm officially declaring no more mr nice guy to time and more mr nice guy no more mr guys and elton john song okay in my defense jakes aren't all that like no go ahead read them hey tall yeah six two or taller six two or taller drinks water brings water brings a water bottle to work trying to make him sound you're really yeah yeah nose to work. Brings a water bottle to work. I'm trying to make him sound...
Starting point is 01:09:05 You're really... Yeah, yeah. Nose is way around. Okay, brings a water bottle to work is what Jake said. Tymon's answer for that would have been like, somebody who's like super strong and fit and like can like lift a car probably. Someone who's like LeBron James probably. Like fit, but also really fast and like athletic.
Starting point is 01:09:22 LeBron James who just drank water. Yeah, and hydrated. That'd be my pick. Okay, and then the Nobel Peace Prize. Yeah, so how is that similar? How is that similar to yours, Tyman? I'm done being nice to Tyman. Tyman got a little berated for the horses pick, and I think we felt too bad. The pendulum swung
Starting point is 01:09:38 too far. Yes, it's time to come back to the middle. Okay, I guess we're comparing them to yours, Brad. I loved yours. They're super creative. Yeah. Obviously the Chris Tomlin thing, if it's,
Starting point is 01:09:49 if it's true, I mean, if Chris Tomlin sitting here right now on our team, it'd be kind of distracting. It'd be like, stop, but don't you want to play a different song? No,
Starting point is 01:09:58 just this one. I figured, I figured people who love, you know, the passion live worship albums in 2007 would have loved that. Got some votes, but no, no, you got Got some votes, but no. You got basically zero votes.
Starting point is 01:10:07 I did. 8% I looked today and it said 8. I was like, okay. Right now it's sitting at Brad 9%, Jake 23%, and me 68%. Sheesh, Diamond. Must be nice. Sheesh. Alright. Brad, I've had this in my notes for a while. I keep forgetting to ask you. What's new?
Starting point is 01:10:23 What's new? Dang it. Just got back from Texas. Oh, cool, to ask you. What's new? What's new? Dang it. Just got back from Texas. Oh, cool, man. Yeah. What's new with you? My sister's about to move in with us. Really? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:10:33 Why is that? I already told you. Brad told me a couple weeks ago off the podcast that he's really struggling. People ask him what's new and he doesn't know what to say. Oh, we haven't talked about it on the podcast? No, no, no. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 01:10:44 Oh, yeah. I just... he doesn't know what to say. Oh, we haven't talked about it on the podcast? No, no, no. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. I just... I don't think so, anyway. For whatever reason, I just can't... I can't think of anything. It's like a lot of things are new. I have that same problem. What's new, Tymon?
Starting point is 01:10:54 I just freeze. No, what's new? What's new? Oh, I finally worked up the courage to do a gainer into our pool. Oh! Big name. What's it like throwing a gainer? It's pretty terrifying.
Starting point is 01:11:07 If you can do that, you can golf. They're putting a lot of like, a lot of trust in just like your, the momentum that you have. Like,
Starting point is 01:11:15 you really, once you're, once you've just like flung yourself off like the edge, you're like, I hope I got enough distance. You're very vulnerable.
Starting point is 01:11:21 Hope I whipped it back. Wow. Yeah. But it's, it's so fun. That is, that's a pretty new thing. I've always thought that running off the wall and off the tree doing the little backflip
Starting point is 01:11:29 cannot be that hard. How do you practice that? It's hard to trust yourself. My brother has been able to do that. I don't know if he still can. Jesse? Yeah. Know his brother's name?
Starting point is 01:11:39 No offense. No offense, but I know his brother's name and you probably didn't know that. Met him one time. Anyway, Brad just wanted me to start asking him what's new so we can get better at it. Yeah, I forgot about that. What's new? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:11:52 Somebody. Yeah, I hadn't been the chiropractor in a long time. I took Bo the other day and she's like, what's new? And I'm like, what do I say? Like, do you care? Do you care about how much of an answer? Do you care about Grande Boo? Because I'm really excited about it.
Starting point is 01:12:04 I don't think you care. Like what's new? How much of an answer do you want? Do you care about Grande Boo? Because I'm really excited about it, but I don't think you care. What's new? How are the videos going? They're good. Grande Boo is more important to me, though, right now. I'll be honest. Anyway. Okay.
Starting point is 01:12:15 Fourth of July. Golfing was fun. Wagyu beef burgers from Good Ranchers, fun. And yeah, culminated with awork show at the house. Catherine lives on some acreage on some land. Oh, that reminds me of a story real quick. Hattie was playing.
Starting point is 01:12:31 They have this little teepee in their backyard. She was playing with Cousin Sloan, Sloan Dog Millionaire. And Catherine went and asked, or whatever, was talking to Hattie about later. And Hattie's like, yeah, it's our new house. We moved down to the teepee because we wanted to live on some land. You are so Catherine's daughter, you know, living on some land.
Starting point is 01:12:52 Like, who are you? We wanted to just get off the grid a bit, you know, provide for ourselves. Right. See if the crops take. So we had a firework show, you know, on some land. And before we did it, we went on a golf cart ride. And we had gone on a golf cart ride the day before, just me and my three kids.
Starting point is 01:13:09 And it was so fun. It was a core memory for sure. Went for like an hour just all around her neighborhood and stuff. And every time we'd pass a car, we'd wave to them. And a lot of times they'd be on their steering wheel and just give like one or two fingers. And Hattie's like, they don't really wave back they just put up one finger and so then whenever we would keep driving we're like hey let's do it back to them and so
Starting point is 01:13:32 you know we'd be of one finger or something and so then the next day we're on a golf cart ride again um on like sunset beautiful fourth july and i just look over at bow as a car is going by and he's just like this just like not like, like not even like, not even like smiling. Just like just pointing it up. It just so cute. And yeah, they got to stay up really late for the fireworks. Bo and I were in the pool watching them. It's pretty sweet.
Starting point is 01:13:58 We were both on our little noodles, you know, watching. And he's like, oh, that's my favorite. Every single time it would come. Oh, that's my favorite. That's my favorite. No, no, that's my favorite. Every single time it would come. Oh, that's my favorite. That's my favorite. No, no, that's my favorite. Oh, that was my favorite. That's awesome.
Starting point is 01:14:08 And he would say, he's like, oh, that's so pretty. That's a really pretty one. Oh, I like that one. You know, he was just very excitable. And then Hattie, I don't know if I told the story last year with camp and everything, but we went and she was freaking out about the fireworks. Do you remember that?
Starting point is 01:14:22 Yeah, I remember you saying that. And so I was like, surely she'll be better this year. I tried to convince her. I don't know if it's the sound or the lights. Honestly, I think it might be a little bit of both, but she started getting freaked out right when they started. So she went inside and I thought,
Starting point is 01:14:35 Oh, she'll be able to watch them inside. It's not that loud. Yeah. You know, it's going for like 15 minutes and then she opens up the door like sobbing and just goes, daddy.
Starting point is 01:14:44 And so, you know, I take Bo out of the pool and go, I'm with Hattie. And yeah, we just went inside and I was like, she was freaking out. She's like, I tried to get to the farthest bathroom in the top of the house. I'm like, oh, I feel so bad for her. And I was like, okay, we're going to do something, but you can't tell anybody. It's a secret. And we went and got a little, like the tiniest scoop of ice cream.
Starting point is 01:15:09 It's nine o'clock at night. And she thought it was the most fun thing ever. We just had a little ice cream, Blue Bell ice cream together in the kitchen. And the fireworks are going off. You know, the lights are like, it's right there, but she's not freaking out anymore. But the whole time afterwards, she's like, we wanted to tell everybody, but she's like,
Starting point is 01:15:24 but it's a secret and I can't tell, I can't tell Bo because it would hurt his feelings. But I had some Dr. Pepper float ice cream. So that was the coolest thing ever. So, um, yeah, that was a good memory. And then earlier on the week, uh, yeah, I also took her for ice cream again because I convinced her to, I mean, this is just so first child. I had such an apprehensive girl. Like she finally was able to put her head completely underwater and that was a big deal. And I was like, you should take your floaties off and do it. She's like, okay.
Starting point is 01:15:55 And then she would like jump, jump off like one of the steps that's already in the pool into the water and do it. She's freaking. I was like, you should jump from the ledge. And she goes, never in my life will I do that. And so like, you know, I don't want to push it too quickly because I know that she's like, it's on her own timing. But then eventually like, you know, an hour later, I said again, I was like, I'll give you ice cream.
Starting point is 01:16:16 I'll take you out for ice cream if you jump off the ledge. She was like, okay, I did it. Well, I'm not that scary. Yeah, she was sandbagging the whole time. Jumped off. We went to Dairy Queen. She'd never been there before. Wanted to sit on the same side of the booth as me.
Starting point is 01:16:27 It was like a wonderful memory. She's like, I want to sit next to you, Dad. That's awesome. Rachel's dad loves Dairy Queen. Dude, me too. Let's go, Steve. I really like it. I think it might be my favorite.
Starting point is 01:16:40 There's all these other ones in town that are a little more cool and new. Andy's is definitely the hot spot right now. But take me to Dairy Queen. I'm happy every time. It was like an old Dairy Queen. It wasn't even a cool looking. Yeah, those are the best ones. That's fun.
Starting point is 01:16:55 I feel like we're going to have so much to talk about a few years down the road when it comes to parenting because Hattie sounds a lot like me. It seems like there's a good chance that Rachel and I have a kid that's a lot like me and Hattie sounds a lot like me. It seems like there's a good chance that Rachel and I have a kid that's a lot like me and Hattie. And I'm like, how do you put up with this apprehension or stubbornness or just unwillingness to do what you
Starting point is 01:17:14 want her to do? Right. It's a really interesting balance because I think sometimes Catherine's more patient. Sometimes I'm more patient. With certain things, there was one time kind of recently, a month ago, she was writing a thank you note for her birthday, for all the people, all the girls that came and she would get so upset because her handwriting wasn't good enough. And so she wanted to start over again or something. And eventually I just, I got too impatient. I was just like, you gotta do
Starting point is 01:17:38 it. You just, you just gotta use that one. You gotta use that one. That's it. That's your, that's the card you use. And she's like, but it's not good enough. I was like, how do you, it's great. It's good. And I, I didn't know what to say except for just like, you fine, That's it. That's the card you use. She's like, but it's not good enough. I was like, Hattie, it's great. It's good. And I didn't know what to say except for just like, you're fine. You did it. And I don't remember what Catherine did to fix it, but she did something. She said something else and it worked. So it's just one of those like, you balance each other out. And other times she's like really frustrated. I'm like, okay, let me talk to Hattie about this. Yeah. So I'm sure I'll be empathetic. Like, hey, like, hey, I remember what it was like to screw up writing my K's and just lose it.
Starting point is 01:18:07 But it's also like, I'm on the other side. I want you to see what it's like being on the other side. Don't be a perfectionist. It's awesome when you're not. And you said sports was like a big thing for you. That's what my dad claims, which he's a clinical psychologist, so he knows. Yeah, I'm no clinical psychologist, but... No offense. No, yeah. He thinks that right when I
Starting point is 01:18:23 started playing sports, it got better. Makes sense. Yeah. And you can see like, okay, I'm not perfect at that, but somebody else can help me be better at this. Like I don't have to make every basket that guy can make the basket and we can still have success. Like anyway, so a lot of time and you missed out on that. Yeah. Timon, good luck with your life. No offense, but you cannot get that time back. Yeah. Uh, yeah. Anyway, so she's fun. I mean, yeah, the kids were fun. We just had a good relaxing weekend of a lot of swimming, a lot of fun times in the pool and some golf. What about you? Uh, you're in Iowa. I will tell you all about my fourth, but really quickly, weren't you wanting to show me that like new robot dance and robot kind of like act

Starting point is 01:20:51 I'm so excited to watch people. It's one of those things where it's going to take a little bit of time for them to give their testimonials because it's like they have to buy them and then start using them. And my gosh, once they use them, it's going to be an avalanche, baby. Why did that make me so tired? Maybe the i was i am kind of holding my breath while i'm doing it for some reason uh but yeah they're great i mean it's just by the packets it's going to make every meal just

So anyway, if so so you don't have to be postpartum, but we'd prefer it. I would say have some babies. Babies are good.

Starting point is 01:22:21 Check them out. Link in description. Yeah. I celebrated the 4th. Link in description. Yeah. I celebrated the 4th of July a couple days ago. On Monday, first thing in the morning, filmed Correct Opinions, and then Rachel and I went straight from the studio up to Iowa, met up with the Coops in Des Moines,
Starting point is 01:22:39 and took the boat out. It was so fun. Just from the time we got there, we went straight to the lake, and we're on the boat until the sunset. Nice. Was that scary for you as a pale boy? You've got a nice tan going on now.
Starting point is 01:22:52 The older I get, I think the more responsible I get and the more I'm like, well, I know what it's like to get sunburned. I don't like getting sunburned. I can avoid this. But don't you get scared? I think I got enough on. Because so much of the time, it's like you don't feel it until you get out of the sun. Totally.
Starting point is 01:23:06 Cause you don't, you're not hot when you're splashing around in the water and everything. And so, uh, I definitely feel that like golfing when it was like, okay, I had to have sweat all this off or like even in the pool. It's like, there's no way sunscreen can still be on me. Right. So totally. I will say we didn't get there until 2 PM. Okay.
Starting point is 01:23:21 So UV index was five when the day started for me. I'm a big UV index guy. Are you? I mean, what better way to know how much sunscreen you need? And so I actually, I have not done this in a while.
Starting point is 01:23:32 All the skin people are not going to love this, but I just took my shirt off and went nose sunscreen. Okay. It's like, this is one of the best chances I'm going to get
Starting point is 01:23:38 to get rid of my farmer's tan. And so. Fun. Show it. Completely got rid of it. Oh yeah, it's gone. Yep.
Starting point is 01:23:45 A hundred percent. Good job. Second, second time this episode. Can we get, can we go for a third? Is there a third moment coming up where I could take my shirt off? Uh,
Starting point is 01:23:53 anyway, but it was really fun. We wake surfed, knee boarded, wake boarded. They had a splash pad kind of thing. Yeah. I love those.
Starting point is 01:24:00 This was like a heavier duty one. They said they just got this one. They're like, usually the splash pads, it's kind of in the water. It's kind of hard to stand on. This was like a heavier duty one. They said they just got this one. They're like, usually the splash pads, it's kind of in the water. It's kind of hard to stand on. This was like almost kind of solid sat above the water the whole time, but still really fun. Still really slippery. Believe it or not. Uh, the big man in me likes the, the more heavy duty splash pads. Okay. You've played on this too. Yeah. Kind of hard to jump on, but also like pretty firm.
Starting point is 01:24:21 Like you could jump off of it too. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. The first one I ever experienced was like that. It was, it was the Limley's you guys, you know, the Limley family from Canicook. No, I don't know. They're awesome. And there's like 10 of them. So they were all over camp, but, um, yeah, they have a really nice house in Branson and went there the day before we got engaged or the day we got engaged, rode their jet skis. If you remember the jet ski store, I love jet skis. I know it was was awesome. But yeah, I used that one. And then all of a sudden, I would go back to these other flimsy ones. And I'm like submersed pretty much all the way in those things. So I'm like, well, I can't even move in these things.
Starting point is 01:24:54 They're just enveloping me. So they had one. The Koops had one? Or they had one? The Koops had one. OK. Yeah. And just spent all day on the boat with their entire family.
Starting point is 01:25:02 Grandma was there. Tommy and Corey, Lucy. Speedboat. Baby was there. Granddaddy. Granddaddy. Yeah, and just spent all day on the boat with their entire family. Grandma was there, Tommy and Corey, Lucy. Speedboat, granddaddy. Granddaddy. Yeah, speedboat. Good old ski boat. Yeah. So it was so fun.
Starting point is 01:25:12 Did that. Drove up to Rachel's grandma's house, spent the night there. Next morning, woke up. The whole family golfed. There was nine of us out there, however many it was. It was really fun. And then went back, played one game of Settlers, and then drove back to Kansas City.
Starting point is 01:25:25 It was actually really fun driving back on the night of the 4th of July. First of all, not a lot of people on the road. Turns out pretty much everyone else has plans during the 4th of July. So there was no one on the road. And then also, we got, it worked out perfectly. We got to the Town of Liberty right at like 10pm,
Starting point is 01:25:41 and all these fireworks are going off from the road. It was pretty fun to see. Sometimes they'd be really close, it'd kind of startle you a little bit, so you didn't see it. are going off from the road. It was pretty fun to see. Sometimes they'd be really close and kind of startle you a little bit so you didn't see it. It would come from behind. But it was pretty fun. Yeah. And knowing that Derek was there,
Starting point is 01:25:51 I was like, one of these has got to be Derek. Right. I know one of them is Derek. You know Derek's not like, yeah, you know, I just kind of skimp out on the 4th of July. You know that guy's going hard. He even told me,
Starting point is 01:25:59 he's like, this is my holiday. It's like my mom is like Christmas, you know, so-and-so is like Thanksgiving. He's like, this is mine. I got my like my mom is like Christmas. So and so is like Thanksgiving. He's like, this is mine. I got my fireworks. I know. Right. That's awesome.
Starting point is 01:26:08 Yeah, that's kind of what we did in Branson last year. We just drove home as it got dark out because Hattie was like, I don't want to be here anymore. I'm scared of the fireworks. But in the car, it was awesome. It was like left and right. Yeah, you see them in the distance. It's all the horizon.
Starting point is 01:26:23 Yeah, it was really cool. Yeah, we were playing like America's Beautiful, Ray Charles, Lee Greenwood, Bruce Springsteen. Sure. Those are basically the three. Yeah. Maybe James Brown living in America. Yeah, you had that one in your story.
Starting point is 01:26:36 That was a good one. But there needs to be a few more because for 4th of July at camp, we would have a 4th of July playlist, and it was like, okay, we've done all the songs 15 times now. Yeah, at a certain point, you have to go. It's not even really American. It's more just like either nostalgic or just like kind of classic rock. It's like, this is pretty close.
Starting point is 01:26:53 Sweet Home Alabama. Country. It's still like, yeah, it feels patriotic for some reason. Right. But at camp, it's like you have to get everything approved. Yeah. You have to get them on the approved list. So it's like, well, you can't just throw down a little Lynyrd Skynyrd.
Starting point is 01:27:09 Oh, Piano Man. Uh-huh get them on the approved list. So it's like, well, you can't just throw it, throw down a little Leonard Skinner. Oh, piano man. I love piano man. I love, yeah. What other, what other Leonard Skinner songs are there? Eight days a week. Hey Jude. Oh, surfing USA. Surfing USA. They're big surfers. Party in the USA. Party in the USA, of course. He was a big patriotic guy. Yeah. Yeah, it was literally. No. Yeah, it was. Yeah, it was Pink Floyd. Yeah, it was Pink Floyd. Pink Floyd, yeah. Carry on my wayward son. The only thing I didn't like about 4th of July, can I be honest with you?
Starting point is 01:27:37 Please. Was people online complaining about America. Did you see that this year? No. I feel like it was just more aggressive than normal. I don't have my phone, but let me try and find some of the things I saw. It was ridiculous. So, dang it, this would really be nice if I had my phone.
Starting point is 01:27:57 Basically, just like... Gosh, sorry. I feel like I saw so many people being like, wow, land of the free. Not the way I see it. Things like that. Does it feel like land of the free to me? All this stuff.
Starting point is 01:28:13 It's almost like liking America has become politicized. Yeah. Having too much patriotism is almost like... It's almost like if you put out the American flag, it's like, well, we know who you voted for. And it's like, what? Just because I like America?
Starting point is 01:28:29 You're stereotyping everything about me? And maybe that's not true, but it seems like that sometimes. Here's something I finally found. Far too many people in the United States have been brainwashed into believing that they are, in quotes, free. I would love for you to look a veteran in the eyes
Starting point is 01:28:44 and say that. Talk to my grandpa and say, hey, I don't think I quotes free. I would love for you to look a veteran in the eyes and say that talk to, talk to my grandpa and say, Hey, I don't think I'm free. Can you imagine the response you get? If you didn't post that online, if you looked at someone who served overseas and said, I don't feel free in America or somebody that's there right now, they're right now. They can't be with their family or someone whose family, yeah. Whose dad is there right now. They're fighting for the freedom that you have to post negatively about your country oh that's that's crazy that's tough they were writing like uh the truth however is the fact that the united states actually ranks 24th in personal freedom which i was like what it's so subjective who from who who's who's ranking
Starting point is 01:29:21 them yeah well it's just like ranking nerdwallet.com we're 15th in creativity or something like how do you even rank the freedom and the creativity we're ninth in art how do you know yeah like 24th and personal freedom what does that even mean either way i just think you don't love america go to the bahamas it's been seven days with bugs in your seriously yes do it yeah your only way out is to get on a crowded bus and go over flooded roads to an airport that is the size of my house,
Starting point is 01:29:50 but the computers are down. You will love America by the end of that day. But Bahamas is ranked like 16th in personal freedom. Yeah, I couldn't find the source, but yeah, they're up there in personal freedom.
Starting point is 01:29:59 No, I did not see that. I mean, granted, I wasn't on my phone very much. Yeah. But like, yeah, that would, I would probably have gotten off my phone at that point. I mean, like, okay, why are we, why are we being a bummer?
Starting point is 01:30:09 And it's not necessarily people that I follow saying this, but there are people that I follow who are like reposting some of this stuff. Sure. And so none of my friends directly are saying stuff like this, but it's like. It's a pretty extreme stance. I don't know. Okay. I don't believe in that.
Starting point is 01:30:24 I'm pretty sure we're free. Yeah. I'm pretty sure we're free. Yeah. I'm pretty sure you're free to say that as much as you want. Say that every single day. If you want to, no one's going to do anything. Negatively better country every day. Right.
Starting point is 01:30:33 And it'll be fine. Oh man. That was kind of a bummer. That is a tough time, but maybe you saw my story with Southwest. I got a one dude. How I paid for the thing, the thing you taught me,
Starting point is 01:30:44 but still paid away after the reason I paid for the thing, the thing you taught me, but still paid away after. The reason I paid for it is because I forgot to check in. Train night, didn't have the same flight, not a companion pass. So I was C22. I was like, ooh, long flight home. I want the window seat.
Starting point is 01:30:57 It happened so fast. Isaac and I went on a walk to Barnes & Noble. Cute. Kind of fun in Atlanta. We're walking, we're walking. I'm like, oh, I'm C22. I'm going to pay for this thing. You could do it on your phone with Apple Pay right there. I didn't have to go to the gate. I didn't know that it happened so fast. Double click, bang, scan my face. A1.
Starting point is 01:31:10 I was like, oh my gosh, this is crazy. I'm A1. I was so excited to like, I was going to take all these videos. First one on the plane. I had like some, you know, ideas and then, I mean, do you almost miss it? No. Okay. They sent the blind guy ahead of me oh sure i doubt he checked in before me yeah no way right gosh dang big old stick uh-huh going in there before we totally ruined the singing america the beautiful from sandlot it's like i didn't think you were still alive man yeah i made your son but he's grandpappy you're lucky dang no there was a lot of pre-boarders, too. Which is like older people, like disabled. Yeah, wheelchair,
Starting point is 01:31:48 certain families, because there's also family boarding. I don't know who got to go. Family boarding is post-A. Yeah. At least my... There were some families that got to go before. I think if you request it sometimes, yeah, you can't or something. But those guys, they don't get the good seats. Did you go
Starting point is 01:32:03 exit row or did you go front row? I wanted to go front row. I thought that would be really fun. Yeah. But by the time there were three rows of pre-boarders, so I was on the fourth row. They could take front row pre-board. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:32:15 Oh, I thought it was like pre-board, but you got to, Oh, I see. I see. You're not allowed to go exit row. You're not allowed to go front row. No. First three rows were taken. So dude, whoever dumped on your Southwest thing,
Starting point is 01:32:25 yeah, but Southwest. Can you believe someone said that? Get off of them! Stop it! Yeah, some girl replied, bro, it's still Southwest. What do you fly? I got 80,000 points racked up. What about you, mama? Yeah, what are you doing over there? I did see that recently. I was like, hot dang, I gotta start using these. That's fun.
Starting point is 01:32:41 Oh, yeah. Where are you going this week? I don't know. Try to get Rachel a Southwest credit card because they're doing an offer right now, 60,000 points. And I might have been a little too honest about Rachel's income because she's not working right now. So it's like annual income. I don't know, $5,000. But I thought...
Starting point is 01:33:03 Okay. First of all... Did you put your name on there at all? No. I was being honest, first of all. Good. That's good. Second of all, I thought a credit card company would be like,
Starting point is 01:33:15 oh, we can make so much money off this person that has no income. I thought they would love to see... How are they going to make money off of her, though, if she never pays her credit card? Well, they would make money off of the interest and the debt. Yeah. Is what I thought they would see it as. But I guess if you're a credit card company, you think, all right, they need to have
Starting point is 01:33:32 a little bit of money. I love it. Jake's applying for credit cards. $1 a year. These people are going to love us. This is how you get them. We're going to be first in line. We're going to be A1 for the credit card. $5,000. It's like a high schooler with a part-time job. Yeah, so we got this letter in the mail that Rachel had been rejected. I was like, dang it.
Starting point is 01:33:48 We're going to miss our chance here. So that was a bummer. Because yeah, it didn't ask if you're married. It didn't ask household income. It said, what is your name? What is your social? What is your annual income? So I just filled it out all for Rachel. That's so funny. I thought I nailed it. That's so great. Failed the ASVAB.
Starting point is 01:34:04 So we have to figure something else out for her. Let us know what other credit cards she should get and I will do household income. Well, that's what it would be, Chase Southwest. Oh, but you can do Chase Sapphire. You can do like a different one. Oh, Chase Sapphire I've heard is nice. That's what I have.
Starting point is 01:34:17 I have both. I'm not trying to brag. Holy crap. I know. Sounds like you make more than $5,000 a year. Doing all right, brother. Not much more. And I got approved.
Starting point is 01:34:27 So, oh, man. That reminds me of when you got pulled over. Like, do you have a substantial amount of money? You're like, I mean, I have $50. Yeah. Back in high school. Yeah, yeah. Like, oh, gosh.
Starting point is 01:34:37 Yeah, just it's all depending on what you think it is, man. Yeah. What context? I didn't. This didn't actually happen to me, but I thought it was going to happen to me. And so I put it in a standup set. They're like, that'd be kind of a funny thing.
Starting point is 01:34:49 I had like maybe a month ago gone to McDonald's and got an ice cream cone. And then I passed a police officer going like 10 miles over. And I was like, oh, he's going to pull me over. And I was like, how funny of a standup bit would it be if it was like, yeah, I got pulled over while having an ice cream cone in my hand. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:35:06 Like just the, it's like a million as a big man, like license registration. It's like, uh, yeah. What do you do with all this stuff? And like, do you lick it while he's like standing there or is it going to like drip? Yeah. Like, I just thought like, that would be pretty funny thing. If I got pulled over with my ice cream cone, that really fast as the cop is pulling up. What do you do? Yeah. I was, I was so convinced. I was like, Oh, he's gonna, he's got me and he's got, I've got my cone in my hand.
Starting point is 01:35:35 That's a pretty funny premise. I like that. Yeah. Cause yeah, you just keep licking it. It's just humiliating. Like an adult with an ice cream cone is kind of humiliating anyway. Like cause kids love ice cream cones, but how many adults get them? I do. I love them. You could tell the whole story. You could set it up by talking about how like, Hey, life hack you. If you ask for a tall ice cream cone at McDonald's, it's on the menu, but they'll give you a tall ice cream cone. That's great. Yeah. People, you know, you make that funny and then you add onto it and like, I got pulled over by tall ice cream cone. Yeah. That's funny. That is good. A lot of people ask after the show, you know, I thought Brad might be here.
Starting point is 01:36:05 I didn't know. Yeah. They want you. I know. I know. I would love it. Someday, we've had dreams of like,
Starting point is 01:36:12 it'd be fun to do shows together, which we're doing Grande Boo. Yeah. But, transparently, it's just hard to justify going out on the road right now for me
Starting point is 01:36:21 with kids and with the family and all that stuff. So, I'm not really pursuing that right now for me with kids and with the family and yeah all that stuff so i'm not really pursuing that right now i do have some conversations to have with you off the podcast about future let's just let's just mute it let's just mute okay just real quick i talked to trey's agent yes marcus oh the one that wanted to pay me a million dollars oh sorry the one that wanted to pay me a million dollars a year and i was like i don't get out of bed for under $2 million. That one? No, I'm just kidding. It feels like I don't know.
Starting point is 01:36:50 I don't know if it's in my head, but it feels like it's such a little thing to consider a data point. But when I walk out on stage, it seems like there's more of an acknowledgement of who I am this tour than the last time. I bet. And I don't know if it's just because it's the same customers. Yeah, they bought a ticket in Atlanta last year.
Starting point is 01:37:05 They're here in Atlanta this year. Yeah. It's probably that a little bit. But even to see actions I have after the show, it feels like just jean shorts has grown more like our image and likeness and brand has grown over the last year and a half. And so it just feels like we have something more than what we used to. That's cool. I don't know if we go on tour with it. Yeah. But maybe we go to like
Starting point is 01:37:21 four cities. That was kind of our thought originally this year. It was like, we should do this. And then we didn't. But that would be fun. Yeah, I like all those things. We'll talk about Off the Pod. Yeah, it's a funny thing. Yeah, I think we can go on tour because when they say give it up for Jake Triplett,
Starting point is 01:37:38 they like applaud louder than I think they used to. So yeah, I think, you know. I'm sure it's a little bit of DJ Mikel pumping them up. Yeah. I'm sure it's a little bit of dj michael pumping them up yeah i'm sure it's a little bit of you yeah gaining popularity in all different things a little bit of yeah the recurring i know jake triplett now yeah a little bit of just southern kindness southern charm yeah all right jake triplett all right all right i remember him my granddaddy showed me his videos. Yeah. Roll Tide.
Starting point is 01:38:06 All right. Oh, I have a quick shout out. Kaylee Smith. Did you see her post on the Instagram? Sorry, on the Facebook group with her, me introducing her at camp. That was the coolest, coolest post. I could not believe. You commented like, well, that's not what I expected to see when I open up Facebook.
Starting point is 01:38:25 And the fact that she held onto that, she had that video for three years now. How long did she have this? Watch this. Yeah. She's going to release this footage. That was so cool. Oh, yeah. That was, yeah.
Starting point is 01:38:31 It was wild. It was like, what a time to be alive. So shout out to her. That made my week for sure. It's awesome. Way better than Hattie going underwater. How hard is that? Gravity.
Starting point is 01:38:44 Should we do our reviews of the week? I would love to do my review of the week first because I don't know which one you're doing. And so I'm going to steal it if you... Okay. Mine's from Julie K10. Oh, that was actually what I was going to do. Five stars says the best period. As a Canadian listener, shout out to Canada.
Starting point is 01:38:58 We've got some great Canadian listeners out there. People are so unhappy that I'm going to miss the Canada shows because of my sister's wedding, but I'm sorry. So many people are like, oh yeah, we can't get there because we're Canadian. We can't get across the border for whatever. Fill in the blank. But at least Jake's coming to the Canada shows.
Starting point is 01:39:14 Whoops. It is bummer, Tommy, because it's not just like a normal show. It's like this huge comedy festival. All these huge comedians would be there. It'd be so fun to get to meet some of the biggest comedians in the world. And just to watch them live do their thing and like compare. Yeah. Well, I mean, she's going to live with you. Do you really need
Starting point is 01:39:30 to go to her wedding? What if I gave like a little rehearsal to her speech? Yeah. She's going to bed one night. And don't say, don't say like what you're doing beforehand. Just outside her room. Start talking. And then when I'm done, so here's to Caitlin and Brayden. Good night. like the door
Starting point is 01:39:45 shut i've known i've known caitlin caitlin for now for 31 years i remember when she first introduced me to brayden i thought this guy's no offense but this guy's not good enough for my sister i always said he's got to be good enough for my sister if he has all ten fingers. Wait. He doesn't have all ten fingers, Tymon. That's the joke. Tymon, you'll have ten fingers. Oh. Yeah. Okay. You'll learn, Tymon. You'll learn. I'll get there.
Starting point is 01:40:18 All right. You want to read freaking Julie Kay's review and I have to find another one? As a Canadian listener, I found the Ghostwriters pod during the peak of COVID restrictions, which was a pretty dark time in Ontario. I quickly became a huge fan of Jake and Brad and love being able to join in this growing community and space where like-minded individuals can enjoy some lighthearted fun. I've since shared the pod with my cousin and we often find ourselves laughing about recent episodes when sharing mediocre life updates or catching each other up on what's currently trending for us. It's so fun to watch you guys grow as you find or grow your following. You're an encouragement to all of us.
Starting point is 01:40:45 Julie. Thanks, Julie. My sister's name is Julie. I like, I like Julie's. Thanks, Jules. Julia, Gulia. Gulia. Mine's from Lauren Hodson.

I feel like I'm hanging out with friends, even though I've never met either of you, Jake and Brad, you've created a wonderful community and I'm very happy. I found the podcast.
