It's Wednesday. We're going to get into our wins of the week soon, but like we always do on Wednesday,
we are going to talk about our comment of the week. I'm going to start off with it.
This comes from Sarah. You know, last week, Brad, you were talking about how you lost your wallet.
Yep.
Sarah said, Brad, maybe get a chain for your wallet.
Thoughts? I think that matches your style. I think that's smart. And never lose it again
with a chain.
Logistically, genuinely,
where's the other side of the chain connected to?
Do you know?
Is it a belt loop?
Is it just like clipped to your pocket?
I see what you're saying.
Like, where do you loop the chain?
Or like, does it just connect one side wall
to one side?
What does it look like, even?
Like, what's the... you know what I mean?
I don't know.
Me neither.
But I think you should try.
I think I look pretty cool.
I think you would like it.
I never listened to Slipknot growing up, so.
Now could be your time to get into it.
Yeah.
I didn't frequent Spencer's Gifts too often at the mall.
Just imagine you with a chain on your wallet.
I mean, you couldn't wear the pants you were in.
You would have to change everything.
New jeans, way tighter.
I mean, I am almost exclusively wearing joggers
every day of my life.
Have you, I mean,
is it even legally allowed to have a chain with joggers?
I think you can, so there's,
yeah, you can have a chain on your wallet
if you're wearing like a black t-shirt like that
and black ripped jeans
yeah
I think you can also wear it
if you kind of like
hey Ols
you like my chain on my wallet
yeah
hey
I think
I think the Raiders
it could be their year man
it could be their year
I miss them since they moved out to Vegas,
but I'm still a Raiders fan.
That's who you become when you put that chain on the wallet.
I shave my head.
Sure.
You know, and yeah.
I don't know.
Yeah, just a little waspy little mustache only.
Maybe a little soul patch right here, man.
A little soul patch?
You know, Fernando Tatis, he's a great ball player.
Firecracker.
Hey, man, you know my aunt?
You know my aunt Domi?
She works over at the Chick-fil-A, man.
You know?
Holmes.
Hey.
I pay her in my wallet.
You see my chain, man?
Not around my neck, man.
It's from my wallet, man.
That's why I don't lose it, man.
Now you're finding it.
I found it in the couch cushions, man.
You got to look there.
Do not forget, man.
Now give me a hybrid.
This is this guy, but he also does like Slipknot as well.
Hey, man, their music is the music of my generation, man.
They were really good back in Woodstock 99, man.
They were there.
We had Red Hot Chili Peppers.
I'm sure you love them.
Corn.
Other people.
Race Against the Machine.
You know?
You better get up. You're down with the sickness. Yes, down with the machine. You know? You better get up.
You're down with the sickness?
Yes, down with the sickness.
I get down with the sickness.
I say, you get down.
I have some cousins in Tijuana.
Very down with the sickness.
That's enough of that.
Okay. Oh, this has been Cancel Culture with Jake and Brad.
And Sarah, who it's her fault, really.
She made us do that.
This all is because of Sarah.
She doesn't leave that comment.
We don't do that segment.
What's the first letter of Sarah?
S-A-A?
It's a S, an S- S-A-A? It's a S.
An S-A.
S-A?
Yeah.
That's even better.
Shoot.
I was thinking how to say it in Spanish,
but that's good, too.
Yeah, so it's Wednesday,
and it's fun.
We got, you know,
we got ghosties in the group chat,
or in the Facebook group
talking about their Wednesday of the week.
Yes.
I love seeing that.
I love it, too.
What episode number is this? We got... This is probably like wins of the week. Yes. I love seeing that. I love it too. What episode number is this?
We got...
This is probably like 281 or so.
Yeah.
Either, doesn't matter what number it is, I suppose.
It's just, it's brought to you by Good Ranchers.
Oh.
American Meat Delivered.
Right, right, right, right.
Ghost Ranch Podcast.
Well, I'm seeing in our notes now, 281.
Yes, Good Ranchers.
Good Ranchers is the sponsor.
So yeah, fun comments.
I want to give my comment of the week real fast.
Yeah, start us real fast it's just
uh from at zila zip on youtube it just says half-baked business name cold stone crematorium
man that's good that's just funny that's good just thinking about the name of that
hello little ziv little ziv town um yeah just uh know, Cold Stone, like their whole thing is like they make it
in front of you and they sing when you tip them and stuff. Yeah. If you tip them, they'll
sing. And are we doing cookie dough today? We chopping this up? Like it, love it, or gotta have it? What do you want?
Isn't that their sizes?
Yeah.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my goodness.
Oh, I have like a small headache, and I laughed so hard,
and now it's like a big headache, but that was so worth it, dude.
Holy cow, that's funny.
Potting with a headache is not fun.
I'm sorry. Oh, my.
No, it's okay. No, it's all right. fun. I'm sorry. Oh, my. No, it's okay.
No, it's all right.
Maybe it'll go away.
It'll go away.
Yeah.
Wow.
I think I just pulsatingly laughed at that.
It was like, boom, boom.
Oh, man.
Anyway, thanks for the really funny comment there.
Great comment.
Yeah, just doing it in front of you.
That's how we do it around here.
If you don't like this, go to...
Like it, love it, or gotta have it. Oh my gosh. I probably will even know Cold Stone
like three times in my life.
I was going to say, that's like far back there in the brain. I haven't thought about that
in a while.
Man, that's funny.
Good sizes. Cute, zany of you guys, Cold Stone. And your size is that way.
Oh man. Jake, I was driving down the highway the other day. No big deal. Not trying to
brag, but we have highways in Kansas City. And somebody's car, I wrote driving down the highway the other day. No big deal. I'm not trying to brag, but we have highways in Kansas City. So, and somebody's car,
I wrote this down because I was like,
I don't know what this means.
And I want to brainstorm with you guys what it means.
It just said on the side of the car,
like an advertisement kind of,
it was a QR code and it had a phone number,
but above it, it just said wanted colon snow subs.
Is the car driving or is this parked?
So you like, you pass a car with a QR code, a little decal wanted. colon, snow subs. Is the car driving? Or is it parked?
So you pass a car with a QR code,
a little decal, wanted.
Yeah, it's like one of those stickers on the side of the car.
I'm like, wanted, snow subs.
First of all, QR code on a car.
Just idiotic. Can you imagine?
Objectively.
I remember SBU, where I went to college,
their security vehicles.
They had a QR code on the back of
their security cars. I was like, who's this
for? And why?
On a car meant to keep us safe, would you put
a QR code on the back bumper of a car?
You're trying to get too close to it.
You're trying to get close to scan it.
Is it an emergency situation?
Hurry! Get to the back of the truck.
Scan it. 911? Takes too long.
Let me get in here
and this is back when you need to cure code scanner app too oh yeah i remember that just
being so upset by that i was like this is why no one comes here right you know we got QR codes on
the back of the truck come on guys that's already dumb objectively a bad idea wanted colon snow
subs snow subs this person runs a youtube channel yeah that is all about snow yeah just
needing subscribers oh that's just a link to their link to their channel snow subs that's good do we
have a final answer or is this no i i haven't i haven't googled it i haven't we could if we want
to eventually but like are there any other clues any color scheme color palette logos pretty normal
car i think it was an suv uh but it wasn't like a snow tires, like a really like, you know,
hey, this, I don't know, snow subs.
What are like, obviously there's multiple different names for like subs could be subwoofers,
substitute teachers, sandwiches, sub sandwiches.
I like woofers.
I hope it's woofers.
Snow subs.
I need snow subwoofers.
Maybe that's like a new technology.
I only have summer speakers.
Hey, it's really powdery snow. All we need to do is just like vibrate the snow off the off the oh like off the
roof or off your windshield or something and it's pretty hard to find these these speakers but the
right people have them and so hey we want we want to buy them from you what if in your car you had
like ice subs and it would like rattle the ice away from your windshield you don't need to scrape
it that'd be awesome. Car subs. Um,
so I Googled it and I got kind of an answer, but I'm still just as confused. I think it comes out.
We didn't figure out what sub stands for. Okay. I'm kind of seeing some info. Submarines. There
you go. And that's the best way to figure out like where the market for submarines is, is just
driving it on the highway in Kansas. Someone might be somebody that's got a snow sub snow submarine so you kind of figured out what it is though this is this is a job posting
on indeed.com snow removal subs needed it's like i said i still don't really understand so like
if somebody that drives a like a snow truck yeah you sub for them you're a good truck driver backups yeah
but no subs doesn't seem like the best two words to describe what you need
yeah yeah like i guess you just it helped them get curious for it or something like
okay maybe i'll scan this qr code real quick and see what they're going to say. Would you be a snow sub? I would be your snow sub.
I wouldn't be like the city's snow sub.
Yeah.
I'm no city snow sub.
I'm no city.
You understand?
Well, that's tough to say.
Hey, I'm not any city's snow sub.
Nope.
Just Brad's.
If you were down, if you were held up,
maybe a leaf blowing injury,
and you're like, hey, I need,
you know, obviously I'm the snow guy. Yeah. I need a snow sub today i'm pretty calling the right hey here it comes i'm in the
game uh from the bullpen uh i'm pretty sure that spencer shipley has done snow things before snow
removal uh-huh and i think spencer listens so spencer tell me if i'm wrong but i think it's
like one time he's like driven for like 26 hours straight or
something.
Oh,
I remember him saying that when it gets bad enough,
it's like,
they'll pay you as long as you keep driving.
Cause Kansas city,
Missouri specifically has like my,
like it's a huge,
huge city,
like the actual geographic geography of the city.
And so it takes a lot to remove all the snow in Kansas city,
Missouri.
And so that's why it's way worse.
They have like,
whereas Kansas, it's way worse they have like whereas
kansas it's like smaller geographical cities so there's easier like infrastructure i guess i don't
know but like yeah so in missouri it's not nearly as good of roads in the snow because of that
because it's just like we have miles and miles and miles of you know if they had subwoofers though
maybe i could rattle that snow away off the streets yeah maybe they should just you know
how sometimes like football fields
have heated like underpipes. Oh yeah.
Like water pipes. Yeah. They should just put
subs underneath the streets.
You know? And then
you just, you know, every once in a while, like three in the morning
you just hear a
You see it kind of like vibrating off to the side.
I can imagine it. I can it. It would be beautiful.
How would the snow actually go anywhere?
Hey, Tymon.
The subs, dude.
The subs.
Maybe we weren't clear.
The subs rattle it.
Low frequency noise.
Okay, but there's a slope.
These are sloping off somehow.
I mean, yeah.
Streets are kind of sloped.
They're slopey.
Naturally, a little.
I like the idea of like,
and if it's like christmas time
you do a little christmas you know
merry christmas you got a road yeah that'd be sweet it's snowing outside you got some like
you know the glow of the christmas lights through the You know, every once in a while it's kind of dim because one of the things got snow on it. And then you
just hear a... And the whole city just has a little like, just nice little murmur.
You're like, this town's great. This town's humming. Yeah, it is. Yeah, it is. Late at night,
it hums. Yeah. Only Christmas songs. No Hanukkah.
Yeah, yeah. Sorry.
We're only representing Christmas.
The Christians funded for it.
How much, I see a crisis out here.
Wanted snow plow subs.
Okay.
How much do you think they're getting paid per hour?
$30.
Because it's 2023.
$25.
No way.
More than that.
$85.
Okay.
$85.
I might be a snow sub.
Yeah. Snow sub. How hard is it to $85. I might be a snow sub. Yeah.
Snow sub.
How hard is it to like...
Must have reliable truck and plow.
You have to have your own plow.
That changes the game a little.
Better to rent.
Yeah.
You could, though,
and probably make it viable with $85 an hour.
Maybe.
But then again, snow sub,
you're waiting on it to snow.
Here's an on-call.
Yeah. I mean, I guess it's a
good gig if you already have a truck and a plow.
Like, well, I was just sitting here. Bought this
plow, you know. When you're scrolling Amazon
late at night and you buy a plow, yeah.
Same here. Yeah, Black Friday. Dude, I do
think, I don't want to do it for my living,
but I think it'd be pretty fun to feel like
the hero out on the streets. Like, you're kind
of a cowboy out there.
Kind of a dark night,
middle of the night.
They go to sleep.
They wake up.
You're welcome.
Look what I did for you.
Yeah.
The city needed me.
Those are not the type of jobs that I dream about doing someday,
but that's good.
We don't need to do the same job,
but just like a one time,
like it kind of just like in the middle of the night,
I don't know,
like a fun adventure.
Like I'm not saying I want to do it for even two nights in
a row i know don't put me down for two nights but i i think it'd be fun to just like have an
experience where you're just driving all over the place and you can look back and be like look at
all this that i just did yeah you know in the in the cold where cold makes everything a little bit
more like intense and exciting i don't know. So I always wonder about snow plows.
I mean,
like they're trying to get as close as they can to the road,
right.
To get the snow off of it.
They got to scrape the road.
Yes.
All the time.
Yes.
That seems dangerous.
It seems like if they,
if they catch it poorly,
it just flips.
Yeah.
Like the dark night.
Yes.
Yeah.
With the Joker.
Like,
cause why don't we see more sparks from these snow plows? That's a good question. A lot of Knight. Yes. Yeah. With the Joker. Like, why don't we see more sparks
from these snow plows?
That's a good question.
A lot of questions
about snow plows.
Let's observe them
next time we see them.
I try to.
Yeah.
And I can't figure it out.
It looks like you're
touching the road,
but no,
everything's fine.
How are you doing this?
Put Crisco on it?
The more I'm thinking about this,
the more I'm like,
really like,
those guys are pretty
freaking awesome.
Somebody take Brad snow plow seven this winter. Yeah. I'm going to be gone all more I'm like really like those guys are pretty freaking awesome. Somebody take Brad Snowplow 7
this winter. Yeah. I'm gonna
be gone all December. So Brad's free.
I am so free. Take Brad in December. Yeah,
dude. Let's do it.
All right. Snow subs. Snow subs.
That's kind of fun.
Did that all come from a comment? How did we get
there? Oh, you saw it driving. Yeah,
I saw a sign. Yeah, I saw a sign.
I got a real fun
dm this past week gotta make you guys play a little game here um friday pickleball got a dm
it was like hey love you guys i'm a casting director i've done this this and this i'm wanting
to do a brand new reality game show and i want like one it's teams of three. Perfect. It said, I want like a group of pickleballers
to be the,
you know,
some of the contestants.
Okay.
The name of the Rowdy Game Show
is human versus blank.
What are your guesses?
First one is beast.
Okay.
For some reason,
my first thought was pig.
Okay.
I was,
uh,
both in the,
in the vicinity. Okay. It is an animal human versus monkey dude
remember they used to do that i mean the show was called human versus beast or something
they did they would have a u.s gymnast uh hang from a bar and see if the chimpanzee could hang
longer okay the monkey started like peeing in his own mouth or something crazy i mean they couldn't
control the monkey didn't know he's in a competition, anyone. Just like, what are we doing here?
It'd be like a strong man pulling a jet plane versus an elephant.
Interesting.
But this is just one specific animal over and over and over.
Human versus aardvark.
Okay.
Human versus antelope.
Yeah.
Smaller.
Is it ant?
Smaller.
Human versus rabbit.
Smaller.
Human versus mouse same size fish oh human versus it's gotta be like a smart animal right somewhat if it's like a whole show based
on a human battling this thing human versus guinea pig. Ooh, hamster.
Hamster.
Yeah, human versus hamster.
Yeah, it goes off the tongue a little bit better.
That's true.
Yeah.
What, just on the wheel
or something?
Somebody wants to make
an entire show
and they think it's a good idea
to call it human versus hamster.
I guess so.
Honestly, I haven't Googled
a single thing about it
until just now.
Like, some press release
came out like nine days ago.
Chip and Joanna Gaines
announced new reality TV show.
They're like executive producing it
or something, I'm guessing.
Casting call for human versus
hamster reality competition.
It's described as a light
and irreverent competition show
where groups of people
go head to head with hamsters
in scaled games of strength,
smarts, and agility.
Oh, I see.
To find out who is the superior species,
humans or hamsters.
Okay, I kind of...
It's scaled down.
So it's like they do...
The hamster has an obstacle course.
They do a maze.
They do the same one.
Yeah.
That's pretty funny.
I mean, no chance it ends up working out,
but kind of fun to get that DM.
Don't you dare say that.
You said that about Indiana EVs?
I think I did.
And we did just fine.
I will give you that.
Yeah.
Did not think that was going to happen.
You said that about Fart Guard,
and we are now the proud... Got two in me right
now.
You tell me.
Yeah. I'm a little bit uncomfortable
right now.
Humans versus hamsters.
You going to at least respond? 100%.
Okay, good. They said we're looking for people
on the East Coast. So they said
that's us. Well, you know,
going out there. Maybe they're Texas people.
Catherine thinks that
Kansas is the North.
So every once in a while
she'll be like,
yeah, you know,
people up here in the North.
And I'm like,
Catherine, stop.
We are in the middle.
There could not be
a more middle state
than Kansas.
We're north of Texas.
Yeah.
Sure, yeah.
Sure, yeah.
A hundred percent.
Sure, but yeah.
Anyway.
You want to do a segment?
Yeah.
Which one do you want to do?
Don't be that guy.
Don't be that guy.
Don't be that guy.
New segment.
Yeah, we had a little segment.
It's called You're Not That Guy.
Or no, no, sorry.
Segment is Don't Be That Guy.
Brought to you by.
Brought to you by You're Not That Guy.
Brought to you by.
You're Not That Guy, pal.
Trust me.
You're Not That Guy. There it is. You're Not you by. You're not that guy. Brought to you by. You're not that guy, pal. Trust me. You're not that guy.
There it is.
You're not that guy.
You're not that guy.
So, yeah, basically this was motivated by one specific instance that I had,
and now we're just going to do a bunch of don't be that guys.
So I'll start with the instance that it happened.
I was at Main Street Roaster South the other day,
getting some work done on the computer and this
specific coffee shop did not
have very many outlets to charge your
computer and there was
basically just one outlet this whole place
that had the option for it
and there was somebody sitting right next
to it not charging his computer
and I just have one thing to say to that person
hey don't be that guy
don't be that guy that's's gonna sit right next to the outlet
And when there's a plenty of other places for you to sit and read your war and peace or whatever
Yeah, going on crime and punish have some awareness. Yeah, have some awareness. No we were sitting don't be that guy
Play the thing play the thing right now. He took it away.
No, no, no.
I still have it.
Wait.
Don't be that guy.
You're not that guy, pal.
Trust me.
You're not that guy.
Okay.
Okay.
Okay.
Yeah.
Great.
Great.
This is the first one I thought of right after that.
It is so minimal.
It's so small, but I feel like it's similar.
It's like we have the opportunity to do something, and you're keeping us from taking advantage of that opportunity.
Okay.
You're at an intersection.
You're at a stoplight, and you want to turn right,
but this isn't an intersection where the right turners get their own lane.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So you have to share a lane with the people going straight.
There's a guy in front of you, and he is going straight.
And one, he's not turning right.
He's in the right lane.
I want to be able to turn.
Two, if you would pull up a little bit, just a little bit of a gap. My blink he's not turning right. He's in the right lane. I want to be able to turn. Two, if you would pull up
a little bit, just a little bit of a gap.
My blinker's on. You could see me.
You know I want to turn. Sometimes you kind of inch over
there. Like, hey, look at me. Just inch up
a little bit. And just stand
strong. Just not aware. Once again.
You have something to say to that guy?
Don't be that guy.
You're not that guy, pal.
Trust me. You're not that guy, pal. Trust me. You're not that guy.
Okay.
Oh, man.
One of the ones for me is just the idea of you're in the airport.
It's time.
The guy's getting up on the speaker.
Quickest boarding ever.
MCI to St. Louis.
I don't know why you would do this, but okay.
I guess you want to go to St. Louis.
And he's like, we're going to now be boarding group A.
The people from boarding group B and C, for whatever reason,
just decide to stand up and just stand in the vicinity
because it's going to be their turn soon enough.
And so they're just standing there,
clogging up the way for people that are ready to get boarding to get there.
Just sit down, enjoy your Charlie Rose on your phone
or whatever you're reading, Warren Punishments,
and just be fine with it.
Don't get in line.
Don't be that guy.
You're not that guy, pal.
Trust me.
You're not that guy.
Okay.
There's a lot of airport standing that bothers me.
When you first land in the plane, baggage claim.
Talked about it last week.
But yeah, that is a... When you're flying something like american too there's been instances where i was
like late getting to the gate maybe connecting flight i get there i see they're boarding main
cabin one i'm main cabin two there's all these people standing waiting to go in when i get there
so i assume like wow main cabin two we've got a lot of people yeah they call main cabin two
and almost no one moves and i was like oh i thought i was gonna have to compete against all
you guys you guys are just stay how long you've been standing here exactly what where do you when
do you even board do is it the next flight out right i don't know why you're why why why are
you here like or just stand back stand way back there wait wait that's with baggage let's get a
view of this right and also while we're at, so many people do have to stay in the airports because the guy who built them,
not enough chairs.
Every airport needs more chairs.
Yeah, it's not like you're trying to make a concert
look more sold out than it is.
You don't need to stay in your room only.
Every airport needs more chairs.
I've never seen one where I'm like,
whoa, this is too many chairs.
Hey, if you're the one building that airport
and you don't put enough chairs,
don't be that guy.
Don't be that guy.
You're not that guy, pal. Trust guy. You're not that guy, pal.
Trust me.
You're not that guy.
Okay.
You're not.
Okay.
You're the guy.
Okay.
Okay.
I actually did have an airport one next.
This is a guy sitting in the window seat and has never seen the sky before.
And he opens up the window.
And, I mean, it looks like the ark of the covenant itself
is beaming through that window when you're trying to take a nap at 6 15 a.m right and you you
checked in late so you got c 36 and he didn't get the window sorry i'm a morning guy so and yeah oh
man it's over i had it in my eyes last week it was this was from across the way actually this was
rare i mean this is like a solar eclipse type i mean once every blue moon you get this this is I had it in my eyes last week. It was, this was from across the way. Actually, this was rare. I mean,
this is like a solar eclipse type.
I mean,
once every blue moon,
you get this,
this is from across the way.
Yeah.
The sun was going through.
And I mean,
just ride on me.
And it was like,
maybe I go back,
go for it.
There's,
so I had to go hood.
Oh,
just like this.
This guy's like,
got like a CD,
like the back of a CD,
like moving on the series of mirrors.
Yeah.
Oh man. Yeah. Oh man.
Yeah.
I just,
when it's that sunny,
when the sun is like equal with you.
Yeah.
I know it's so,
so,
so,
so debilitating.
Yeah.
So what do you have to say about it?
Don't be that guy.
Don't be that guy.
You're not that guy,
pal.
Trust me.
You're not that guy.
Hey,
don't be that guy that drives his motorcycle with the music on full blast
down the street at
11 p.m. Motorcycles have very
loud speakers.
Yeah, because they're freaking loud motorcycles,
I guess, but it's just like, hey,
use, oh, I don't know, maybe it's illegal
to use AirPods, but it's like, okay.
But like, you're not like you're having a heightened
sense of like hearing
with everything else going on when you're driving a motorcycle.
And yet, I mean, it is amazing.
Like ZZ Top, like whatever.
It's almost always ZZ Top that does one motorcycle.
Chains on lots.
Sharp, sharp, yeah, sharp-dressed man.
And I'm like, dude, A, my wife's trying to sleep.
B, my kids have been asleep for three hours and that's not enough time.
So, uh, please turn down your music and just don't rev it up so much when you're, you know,
on a stop sign, just leaving.
Rachel can't stand guys who have really loud cars.
I don't know why he drives her so nuts.
I, uh, borrowed, borrowed, I paid to borrow a rented uh truck to go to south dakota and it had
like a like aftermarket muffler or something on it and it was like uh just don't i don't need this
i don't want this uh but yeah it is it's kind of weird like you're driving down the highway and
just you know yeah just any type of acceleration whatsoever it's just like so much louder than it needs to be.
Right.
Sometimes it's funny, like you'll hear a really loud car,
and you can't even tell which one it is,
because everyone's going the speed limit.
It's like, why would you make a,
why would you do these things to your car
that gets so loud when you go from 25 to 35?
Right.
I can't even tell who you are.
Yeah.
Ridiculous.
So if you're making loud noises with your car,
with music, late at night, anytime,
don't be that guy.
I'm going to keep playing it.
Yes, time it.
You're not that guy, pal.
Trust me.
You're not that guy.
Okay.
Let's go another airport one.
If your carry-on is any type of mode of transportation, it just bothers me.
I've seen a guy carry on a skateboard.
I saw a guy, a stroller, fine.
That doesn't count. That's transportation for your kid. But I've seen a guy, a stroller, fine. That doesn't count.
That's transportation for your kid.
But I've seen a guy carry on a one wheel.
That's annoying.
Just couldn't go a few seconds without it.
You know, needed it up top.
Was he using it on the tarmac?
I didn't see him in the airport.
I just saw him like boarding with me.
Probably was be bopping around.
I've seen people skateboard in an airport, and that's annoying too.
Really?
Yeah.
That seems illegal.
They do it.
Like it seems like
like paul blart mall cop those guys on skateboards did a lot of crime did they yeah i only saw the
second one second one's always better you're like i bet i know what's going on i don't need to watch
the first yeah i mean rush hour 2 shrek 2 great sequels i'm sure paul blart's the same way yeah
i'm not sure i get your beef with skateboarding one wheel carry on. Really? Yeah. Cause like, what if that's all you're bringing is a suitcase and then also your one wheel,
you get two free,
you get to carry on.
But why are you bringing a one?
Yeah.
I don't think you ever need it on a trip and it takes up so much space and the
overhead compartment,
I guess.
Yeah.
You can't like squish down a skateboard.
It's kind of just like,
yeah,
it's,
it's really wide.
You can't put it the other way.
Doing the closing of the doors. Yeah. They get the one wheel. They're not just shoving it in there. It's kind of just like, it's really wide. You can't put it the other way. Doing the closing of the doors.
Yeah, they get the one wheel.
They're not just shoving it in there.
It's not malleable.
Okay, that's fair.
I do want to make a video
about how I treat my golf clubs
versus other people
because Trey and I,
we're traveling so much.
We're always taking Ubers
with golf clubs.
Dude, it's amazing.
It's like they get paid
to like, if you snap a driver,
we'll give you a $500 commission.
I mean, just no respect for it.
I mean, yeah,
they're jamming it in there
like it's a duffel bag
at an airport. Like, hey, easy, dude, it. I mean, yeah, they're jamming it in there like it's a duffel bag at an airport.
Like, hey, easy, dude, easy.
It's got a pretty flexible shaft on there.
It could break pretty easily.
Yeah, they, I mean, yeah,
these Uber drivers go nuts with golf clubs, but.
Maybe they don't know what it is.
Maybe they think it's skis.
These guys look like big skiers.
Oh, they picked you up from the golf course.
Nevermind.
I was thinking it was like from the airport with the luggage. That happens too. Sure. Uh, so do you have something
to say to those people? If your carry on is a skateboard or any kind of motorized, don't be
that guy. You're not that guy, pal. Trust me. You're not that guy. Okay. All right. Uh, last
one I got here is just when you're leaving a parking lot of a big event, let's call it Chiefs versus Eagles game,
and people are taking turns back and forth, back and forth.
Yep.
And there's that one guy that's just –
Back to back.
Back to back or like my thing was just not letting you in.
And it's like what are you accomplishing here by not letting one more person in?
Like it is clearly like a one-to-one.
Zipper.
Yeah, zipper on in there, and he's like, I'm not letting you in no matter what.
Hey, guy that doesn't let you zipper, don't be that guy.
Well, trust me, you're not that guy.
Okay.
Oh, a little remix.
It's funny.
I feel like I have another similar one to that, too.
This bothers me.
A car gets to a four-way stop before me.
It's already been there.
Then I pull up and wait for him to go.
Waiting.
Go, go, go.
And then he waves me on.
We live in a nation of laws.
Yeah.
You got there first.
Go, bud.
Yeah.
Go.
Go, bud.
Just please go.
Go, squirt. Squirt. Squirt. Come on.. Go, bud. Yeah. Go. What are you? Go, bud. Just please go. Go squirt.
Squirt.
Come on.
Get on, pal.
And sometimes they're kind of, they seem almost like bothered by you.
Go.
Go.
You go.
Go.
That drives me crazy.
Okay.
Well, there's just like, there's this like common rules.
We call them the law.
Like there's like laws of driving on four-way stops.
I did a ticket test on this like 16 years ago.
Right.
You're supposed to go first.
It's called the right of way.
It's not just literally because you're on the right. It's bothering me how
much you're not in a hurry. You should want
to go when you get to a stop sign. Stop signs are
so annoying. Get through them. Yeah. You got
there first? Congrats. Go by.
Yeah. Oh, and they wave me
on. Hawaii's the worst about it. They're
friendly to the point of
causing accidents. I was at a two-way stop one time.
The other
road doesn't have to stop. of causing accidents. I was at a two-way stop one time. The other road doesn't have to stop.
And they stopped.
They stopped and waved me on.
I was like, that's just dangerous.
All right.
Mahalo.
Sure.
Carry on.
Yeah.
Don't be that guy.
Don't be that guy.
Don't be that guy.
You're not that guy, pal.
Trust me.
You're not that guy.
Okay.
All right.
That's all I got for you're not that guy.
You got any more?
I have more, but I could save them for next time. Okay. Save them for next time. I got for You're Not That Guy. You got any more? I have more, but I could save them for next time.
Okay.
Save them for next time.
This has been Don't Be That Guy.
Thank you, Tyman, for the sound bites.
You're welcome.
You are that guy.
You are that guy, pal.
Yeah, you're that Ty.
You're that Ty.
So yeah, last week, or not last week, a few days ago,
I had a little private comedy gig, College of the Ozarks, CMO, Branson.
Yes.
Loved that place.
I even wrote that into my intro.
I was like, Jake Troop is on the Grow Up Comedy Tour.
It's performed all over the country, United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and
tonight, Point Lookout, Missouri.
Who's excited?
But yeah, it really was fun to get to perform in Branson.
Remind me, slash everybody else, where exactly exactly like what was the event? It was it was
through the school, right? Yes, this was their convocation. Okay, what does that mean for people
that didn't go to Baptist schools? Yeah, well, I didn't know either. I mean, there was I did I
I mean, I was I went nuts being just an investigative journalist the whole day on
Sebo's campus just trying to figure to figure out what's, you know,
what an opportunity to cater a show
so much to the audience.
So I was like,
I really want to take advantage.
So I met so many people
and so many students
just asking all these questions.
So they called convos.
Okay.
And it's kind of like a chapel.
But essentially,
they have to go to a certain amount of them per year.
Are they always at night?
Yeah, I guess.
They may have a chapel thing
that's during the day, but a convocation happens at night. It's one hour long. And they sent out an email at
like 1pm that day. They're like, hey, due to the laid back nature of comedy, you don't have to
dress up tonight. Okay. And so kind of the word on the street as I'm talking to Sue is like, oh,
everybody's going to be there because they don't have to dress up. It's like you get a convo credit for not. And I think girls have to be like long dresses,
look really nice. Guys are like slacks with a belt, nice shoes, colored shirt. You know,
it's pretty formal. Belts are off tonight, baby. And so I was just like, or yeah, so I just found
out like, oh yeah, everybody's going to be here tonight. Comedians, you have a lot of fans here.
So I was just getting so excited. I was like, this is going to be so cool.
I do soundcheck and I get to the venue and it's kind of a smaller theater.
I was like, oh, sweet.
This is going to be packed.
This is going to be so, so fun.
And so it was.
We got, that day,
I'm not going to be going home for Thanksgiving.
So that day, saw the grandparents,
kind of spent some time there.
It was kind of a replacement of Thanksgiving.
And so that was really fun.
It was just such a full day of like kind of being on,
you know,
just like go to one grandparent,
go to the other grandparents house and then drive down to CVO and just seeing people all day.
Alex Dimchek is down there because his sister works for CVO.
His whole family's down there.
That was so fun.
We're going to catch up.
Caden Peterson,
the one who wished you a birthday.
Good friend of mine.
We're chatting.
I'm seeing all these friends talking,
whatever. Then, uh, we do, uh, I who wished you a birthday. Good friend of mine. We're chatting. I'm seeing all these friends talking, whatever.
Then I have to do a dinner as part of the gig. It's like you come to a convo.
We want you to have dinner with our dean of students,
with some of our esteemed students.
I don't even know how they earned the right to be there,
but all three of them were fans.
That was fun.
Yeah.
We had Noah, Cody, and Davis.
Okay.
And so that was fun yeah we had noah cody and davis okay and uh so that was really fun they were
uh cody had been a part of trey's set during the kansas city show when trey was like do we have
any homeschoolers i guess cody was like yeah right here all right and he did this whole like 60 second
crowd work bit with cody it was pretty hilarious that's cool he's like you're homeschooled from
second to eighth grade okay and then and then he like, and then I got accepted to School of the Ozarks. Trey was like,
it's not Harvard, dude. Okay, cool.
Congrats. And so they went to CFO
and all this. So that was kind of fun.
But yeah, these other guys were awesome.
And I had a good day.
I think Noah said
he listens every week. So shout out Noah.
Davis was like, I started it and it made me want to start
my own podcast. Now I'm a little behind on
Ghost Hunters, but no problem me want to start my own podcast. Now I'm a little behind on ghost hunters, but...
No problem.
Yeah, it was really fun.
Good times.
One of my best friends from Canicuck back in the day,
we always refer to him as Dean Weeby.
Yes.
On the podcast.
Learned he's a little bit higher up than the dean.
He's the vice president.
But as far as we're concerned, to us and to you guys, he's Dean Weeby.
Yeah.
So if you go to see Vo and you hear this, go up to him.
Next time you see him, tell him Brad and Jake said, hey, Dean. Hey, Dean. What's up, Dean Weeby? Hey's dean weeby yeah so if you go to see vo and you hear this go up to him next time you see him tell him brad and jake said hey dean hey dean what's up dean hey dean weeby that's
one of those things i don't i don't know like similar to like the hierarchy of like art like
uh armed forces ranks i don't know i would you could say dean was higher up because he's a vice
president yeah but like sometimes there's five vice presidents
or something like that.
You know what I mean?
So it's like vice president of student life.
It's like, okay.
That might be lower than the dean.
Is that lower than the dean of students?
The dean?
The dean?
The dean seems like it's going to come down harder on you
than the vice president of students.
It seems like there's one dean, maybe a few VPs.
There's like deans of different schools,
which does make sense. Like school of business dean. It's like, okay, you're,
you're fine. I'm business. You're doing nice to meet you. Yeah. Date Dean. Yeah. Nice to meet me.
How do you like your eggs in the morning? Uh, uh, but yeah, like, I don't know. So yeah. Cause I
said that to Caden, I was like, it's still so crazy to me that, you know, like, um, that Weston's
one of the deans here and he's like, dude, he's vice president.
I was like, cool.
I don't know.
What is that?
All right.
Air Force Two.
Awesome.
General, captain, commander.
I don't know.
Sure.
Yeah.
Lieutenant.
Hard to spell.
Right.
Cool.
But it was fun.
And getting to talk to other students and just the respect they have for Dean Weeby.
They're like, oh, yeah, he's awesome.
It's so cool.
They love him.
He plays intramural still.
But yeah, he's a really big deal there and it was fun so basically uh yeah had a good
time i was really trying to cater my set and just turned as much cfo lingo as possible and learned a
lot throughout the day give me some examples let's see they do like they call it character camp it's
kind of their welcome week their first like week of school or whatever and you have like two leaders
they're called mom and pop
and everyone else is kids.
But what happens,
I guess pretty often is
there'll be like,
there's marriages that happen.
There's dating.
It's like,
oh yeah,
I'm dating my pop.
Oh really?
Cause it's like,
you know,
freshman girl,
junior guy.
Sure.
Yeah.
Your pop's looking all right.
Or like other people are like,
yeah,
I date my sibling.
It's just like a lot of jokes
they throw around.
Mom's pretty hot.
Yeah. Mom's got it going on.
Whoa, yeah.
We're pretty close to Arkansas.
That's cool.
Interesting.
That was one thing.
I mean, all just the CFO, they call it hard work you.
Yeah.
Because no one has to pay tuition there.
You work full time the whole time you're a student on campus.
That's how you pay for your college.
And so that was just a lot of material too.
Like learning the best workstations
the worst ones you know doing crowd work what are yours yeah kind of thing so any any fun like
different like uh work things uh let's see i mean it's not just like i mean obviously i'm sure they
have normal things but i know they have like an agriculture area like a whole barn of dairy cows
i mean that's one of the work stations is milking
cows basically and um they were saying pretty like dish pit like all dish pits the worst just
like doing dishes in one of the restaurants or whatever uh but they got a hotel there on campus
so you could be on housekeeping they said housekeeping's a blast yeah um so yeah i mean
there's a million of them interesting they learned about learned about. Do they have like more things like a hotel?
Do you think they have that specifically for the opportunity for people to work?
Like, or not for, I don't know.
It's true.
I don't know who stays at the hotel.
I mean, maybe it's just people visiting Branson and they've heard about CVO.
It's a good, yeah, tourism.
Because I know like the, whatever, the Kederson or whatever is like a nicer restaurant kind of thing. Yeah, those are just random people from Branson. Just I think wanted a good dinner
So maybe that's how they make the money that they then
Save. Yeah Rachel's boggles. She's like, how does this place turn a profit? How does this place make money?
How did this place not lose money? Right? Yeah free labor, but how are you earning money anywhere?
It's a four-star hotel or something and you pay to stay in there. Very good service because it's people that want to do that
labor rather than milking the cows. Yeah,
maybe they're selling the milk. You know, not everything is just
a self-sustaining farm. You know,
maybe they're actually making money off of these students as well.
Pump and dump on the milk.
Is that a
breastfeeding term?
Thought it might be.
But so yeah, it was fun. It was, you know,
with Trey, I usually do a 20 or 30 minute set.
This is a 45 minute set.
What?
So it was a little bit longer.
How was it?
Not bad.
They were a great crowd.
Yeah.
It was interesting, you know,
and I knew this going into it,
but obviously this is different
than a Facebook mom crowd,
a Trey Kennedy crowd.
So some jokes, I mean, they loved it.
And it was so fun.
It was refreshing.
It's like, wow, that never hits that hard. Really? And other jokes, you know, stuff about being a homeowner, stuff about marriage, I mean, they loved it. And it was so fun. It was refreshing. It's like, wow, that never hits that hard.
Really?
And in other jokes,
stuff about being a homeowner,
stuff about marriage,
certain ones of those don't hit as hard.
Yeah.
So it was so interesting
because one, house lights completely on.
So I mean, it's like a performance in a living room.
I can just see everybody.
Maybe they would charge you more
if you had to turn the lights off.
Yeah.
Oh, I forgot about that at Grande Boo.
You want the lights off? Oh, that's $1,000.
For the switch to turn off?
We would need a light tech for that.
I think I could probably do it myself.
What if you trained me right now?
So there's a button, and that's how
you turn the lights off.
And it's Star Peterson.
Shout out to Caden's sister.
That's interesting.
But I knew Weston Weeby was there.
So that was kind of a fun game for me
is to try to find Weston.
I could just see my parents came down,
of course, so supportive.
So I saw where they were.
I tried to kind of avoid eye contact with them.
Saw different people from Stratford than I knew.
Saw people leave.
Okay.
That was interesting.
They knew the ratio they needed for combo.
They like signed in and then they got out of there.
Maybe.
I don't know.
Went to go have a date with their dad.
Oh, pop.
Yeah.
Oh, Cvo does open house.
So at SBU where I went, once a week, maybe once every two weeks, like Thursday nights,
guys could go to girls dorms.
Girls can go to guys dorms for like two hours or something.
Okay.
They do open house once per semester.
I was like, oh, man, They do open house once per semester.
I was like, oh, man, I bet you just... It's like club med.
Yeah, you go nuts.
You get one per semester.
Oh, baby.
Oh, man.
Yeah, but...
So I thought it was hilarious at first.
It's like, I mean, you got to take advantage of it.
Because at SBU, you're like, I mean,
I did it a couple of times.
It's not that big of a deal.
But if it was only once a semester,
I'd be like, we got to do something. And it kind of was. Like talking to some of the people, I did it a couple of times. It's not that big of a deal. But if it was only once a semester, I'd be like, we got to do something.
And it kind of was.
Like talking to some of the people
I had dinner with, Noah, he was like,
I mean, I would have loved this, honestly,
if I was in college there.
Because it's such a big deal that,
I mean, everyone makes sure they're on campus
and they have plans.
It'd be like homecoming.
You know, it's like, yeah,
we do one a semester or something.
And so he said, I'm doing a concert.
So it's basically like, he's not using it as a time to like, hey, bring a girl in. It's like, hey, I'm doing a, uh, a concert. So it's basically like,
he's not using it as a time to like, Hey, bring a girl in. It's like, Hey, there's gotta be all
these people in the halls. Yeah. Let's take advantage of it. They said a lot of girls will
do like, they'll open up their own boutiques. Like they're selling stuff, sweaters for $10,
whatever. Entrepreneurial. I know. I was like, Oh, I would love that. So he's like, yeah,
we're doing like a, we're doing a concert and people, he said, we pack 50 people in a dorm room
and it's so loud and so fun that's
crazy so yeah i mean yeah i was like man i oh that sounds so great wow so like at sbu normally
your dorm like girls were not allowed in period it wasn't like the lobby you could be in the lobby
but the lobby was crazy small there's nothing in the lobby i just assumed like it would be like
an earlier curfew or something like we had a curfew, I think, of midnight or something
like that. No. You never...
You had to sign the girls in or whatever, but yeah.
Yeah. I remember every now and then you would forget
it was a Thursday or every
other Thursday, and you'd see a girl walk down your
hall like, oh my gosh, I forgot it's
Thursday. I thought she was a perv ball
because you're just not used to seeing it.
There was one dorm at SBU, Paige
Farr far ghosty
listener maybe some others out there she lived in what he got this was male door hey what'd you
get hey what do you get female dorm on the other side they shared a lobby oh boy was that lobby
just bumping i mean there was a lot of pda but also uh sweet ping pong table so a lot of people
hung out what he got what he got what What do you got? Would anybody ever like,
did you know if girls like sneaking in?
Oh, I'm sure it happened.
I was probably too sheltered,
even in college,
to understand what was going on.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, I'm sure it was happening
because, you know,
my first two years I lived in land
and a lot of football players lived in land
and a lot of football players on the first floor.
So you would hear about girls
sneaking into the window.
Yeah.
I was like, why do you need help studying?
It's Friday.
You could go to the library for that.
You're an exhibitionist?
Well, that project's not due for a few weeks.
You could scan a QR code if you need help with campus security.
He needs someone to sleep with him.
Why is he nervous?
He needs security.
I just use a blankie to help me sleep.
But yeah, much longer set.
It was kind of catered to CVO students.
How did that...
Yeah, tell me more about the preparation.
Was it hard to prepare for an extra 15?
Yeah.
Yeah, I was just trying to, you know,
make sure I have enough time
and trying to make sure I know my transitions now. Because now it's kind of a new set. It's like, how are you going to get with this?
I got to say this thing now. I can't forget that. Yeah. Um, so yeah, trying to prep as much as I
could, but I mean, I mean the whole day was so full that it was just like, I thought it was
gonna more time. It's like, I went straight from dinner. Then I got to go, I got to change. Like
dinner got over at six 30 and you know, and I'm not even dressed yet. I got to steam the shirt.
So it was bang, bang, bang. But there's so many times where I've thought,
I'm so glad that I did that thing way back then.
Like a small bit of preparation,
because man, I thought I would have way more time.
And then you don't.
And I kind of, I was like, I'm glad I, you know,
on the drive from Springfield to Branson,
I was like, Rachel,
you just give me like 10 minutes to kind of prep.
Yeah. Great.
So glad I did that.
That's good.
But it was interesting too,
because I, we never addressed this on the podcast, but it was interesting too because i we never addressed
this on the podcast but there's quite the the chatter in the ghost artist facebook group one
time about how i'm not a clean comedian and all this stuff and i don't need to re-say what i
already said in the facebook group you can go find it look at it if you want but uh yeah it's
you know i think i did my first like dark joke which is about about how I opened for Trey Kennedy and I make a John F. Kennedy joke.
Yeah.
Pretty, pretty safe, you know?
Yeah.
But even then, so it gets a huge laugh.
I mean, way bigger than,
which I was like, why is that getting a huge laugh?
I don't know.
Yeah.
Huge laugh.
It dies down.
And then there's a second kind of roar
that's just like snickering.
I don't know how else to describe it.
It was like, it was almost like, can we laugh at this?
Yes.
Can you believe he said that?
Yeah, yeah, yeah. John F. I truly didn't. I was like, are they explaining the joke to their friends? Are they,
there was so much talking. It felt like every student was talking when I was waiting for the
laughs to die down. So I didn't know what to do. And that happened probably like four or five times
where they were just chatting afterwards. I was like, I guess I'll wait. That's good. Well,
they're probably used to these convocations being so straight-laced, so like whatever.
I saw the week before with shout out Lane.
I probably talked about this years ago on the podcast.
This guy, Lane, he's a Branson guy.
His wife wanted to surprise her husband.
And so had me show up to like Chili's or something.
Back in the day.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Good memory.
So he might still be listening to the pod,
but he spoke the week before me.
Okay.
He had to do an hour-long talk about suicide prevention.
It's like, that's what they just heard last week.
I come in hot, JFK joke,
and they're like,
you can't have that.
Yeah, right, right, right.
That was interesting.
That's great.
And yeah, I don't know how they felt
about the whole set.
There was some interesting kind of feedback,
but I think the students loved it.
I mean, I got comments today,
I still get DMs like,
this is the best convo ever.
We loved it. So I think it was a win. I mean, I got comments today. I still get DMs like, this is the best convo ever. We loved it.
So I think it was a win.
Cool.
That's great.
What would you say as far as rank times
as far as performing goes?
As far as which ones you prefer from one to four?
We got five minutes, 20 minutes, 30 minutes, 45 minutes.
What's like your favorite?
What's your least favorite out of that?
If someone were to say,
hey, we'll pay you the same amount of money,
give or take.
We just want you to be the best you.
Cool.
I would do 20, then 30, then 45, then five.
Really? Okay.
Yeah.
Obviously five is nice.
It's really easy.
It was like, if I'm going all the way there,
let's give them something.
Right.
Five is great if you're just starting out
or if you have new jokes, like I't need 20 this is all new yeah 45 just seems like yeah next level long it
was a lot yeah that's awesome dude but yeah still tried to make it fun and i'd break every 7 10
minutes talk to some people in the audience to try and mix it up but yeah it was a good time
after well i can no no go ahead pause you want to keep going
yeah afterwards i knew caden was probably going to be there my friend weston they both work for
the university it's like they'll probably be there but i didn't tell anyone else who lives in branson
i was like people got lives i'm big on like people got stuff going on if they end up there if they
hear about it great but i'm not big on like making plans out of me being somewhere i don't know just
like i always want to assume people have stuff going on, get done with the show,
come backstage.
Everybody's there.
Uh,
Ward Weeby,
Beth Weeby,
the directors of K West back in the day.
I was like,
I was just talking about you guys at dinner and how much I loved you guys.
That's so cool.
You're here.
Um,
Bethann Lampley,
who,
uh,
um,
shoot.
What's his name?
I know his fantasy football name is Anglo Saxon.
Adam Prince.
Adam Prince.
Yeah,
that's right.
Uh,
Cho Ye guy.
Yep. Uh, he had just ran into Bethann Lamaxon. Adam Prince. Adam Prince. Yeah, that's right. Choye guy. Yep.
He had just ran into Bethann Lampley.
She was there.
Lindsay Rother.
Just a ton of Canicuck people.
I guess I don't need to name them all.
I don't know.
But they were all there after the show.
And it was so fun.
I mean, it was just like some of my favorite people in the world.
It meant so much that they were there.
My parents were there.
Dimcheks were there.
Yeah, that's cool.
The after party was awesome.
Yeah.
And we ended up having to drive back to Kansas City at the end of the night of the night said correct opinions the next morning at 9 a.m but um so it
was a really late night and probably like what timon had recently but uh yeah just so fun just
so uplifting heartwarming to get to talk to these people and the one uh cool thing we got out of it
i think rachel there's a decent chance she works at CannaCuck next summer for just like two weeks.
Really?
So I want her to so bad.
Just go be like a counselor
at K-West for two weeks.
They're kitschy.
Anything.
Yeah.
I even told them,
I was like,
Rachel doesn't know.
You could have her
unclog toilets for two weeks
and tell her that's what kitschies do.
She's like,
okay, great, I'll do it.
Yeah, yeah.
She has no idea,
but yeah,
they were like,
we always need more girls.
And so,
yeah, I want Rachel too.
I think it'd be so fun.
I was like,
I'll come visit you
on your two fours.
I love Branson.
You know that. Yeah. Get to hang out. You can go too. Maybe I will. too. I think it'd be so fun. I was like, I'll come visit you on your two fours. I love Branson. You know that.
Yeah.
Get to hang out.
You can go too.
Maybe I will.
Yeah.
Oh man.
Oh, now we're talking.
So yeah, they all got to meet Rachel and loved her
and Rachel loved him.
And yeah, she might get a little job out of it.
We should just do a two week Branson stint.
Oh.
You know, I've been talking about,
I've been talking to my friend, Michael Sloan,
who helps run the family camp there,
and he's trying to convince me to go do Kauai with everybody,
which would be awesome.
And then, of course, I would love for Hattie to go to camp too.
Yeah.
Oh, that'd be fun.
We'll do it.
Do a Branson's Day.
Word was, he gave me a heads up,
he's like, two summers from now,
it's Kandekuck's 100-year anniversary.
So just be on the lookout.
We might call you back for something special.
We're trying to make it a huge summer.
I was like, cool. I was like, I don't need to do it.
I'll come and watch. You don't need to have me do anything.
Yeah, you just want to be a participant.
Yeah, and they're like, no, no, no. This is legend status.
We're bringing all the legends in.
I was like, me and Johnny Manziel? I don't know about Johnny Manziel.
You, Ben Rector.
Yeah, Johnny.
Johnny, of course.
Sam Bradford, I'm pretty sure maybe went there once.
Really?
I don't know.
He's Christian.
So,
uh,
Tim Tebow,
I think spoke there once.
Yeah.
He's white.
Wayne Simeon.
Anyway,
that's everything.
Branson was awesome.
Siva was awesome.
Thanks for having me.
Um,
it was great.
That's fun.
Catherine,
I don't think we're going to do it because I don't think we have that much
energy,
but she mentioned, she's like, I would like to go to Branson sometime during the Christmas season.
I think it'd be fun.
We're going to be down there?
Well, I was like, what do you mean we're going to be down there?
Christmas time.
We'll be in Stratford.
Oh, yeah.
I was just like, well, I mean, Jake's going to be gone all of December.
So we are going to have a lot of flexibility.
We could just go down there for a few days, go see Cylinder City. but I'm like, I don't know if that's wise after we've gone to
Hawaii and we're going, you know, to her family, whatever it doesn't matter, but it'd be fun
someday. Also just a reminder. Yes, I am going to be gone pretty much every day in December,
but podcast is still coming out every Monday, every Wednesday. And we got some treats for you.
Yeah. So you're, yeah, you're going to be just fine. Yeah. Podcast is still coming out every Monday, every Wednesday, and we got some treats for you. Yeah. So, yeah, you're going to be just fine.
Yeah.
Podcast is still coming out.
I'm excited.
I'm excited to see what happens.
It's fun to change it up every once in a while to get timing out of there.
No, I'm just kidding.
More than anything, just getting timing out of there and just kind of refresh.
Honestly, I like the idea of timing time.
Timing time?
Yeah, a little timing time.
Timing time.
You know, podcasts, like that guy said, like, it's the time and runners.
It's the, you know.
So, dude, okay.
Random observation that I wrote down I want to talk about.
Maybe quick sponse.
I guess.
Sorry.
Go ahead.
Just quick sponse.
Quick sponse.
Well, hey.
Hey, Kennecock, Branson, you love.
Main Street Roasters.
Yeah.
We didn't drink coffee.
We weren't allowed to drink coffee, basically, when we were working at KU.
You know what we were allowed to do?
What?
Read the Bible.
That's right.
And eat meat.
No, just kidding.
Two more.
Yeah.
And sleep.
What is he about to say?
Which one is it?
Yeah.
Read the Bible.
That's right.
But you know what I wish we could have done more is listen to that Bible because that's consuming God's word as well. So you can consume the Bible more through audio
with one of our sponsors. We're sponsored by Dwell. And yeah, once again, I just can't just
emphasize enough how beneficial it's been for me to listen to God's word, um, to consume it that
way. I was on this road trip coming back from South Dakota this past weekend, been trying to
memorize a few new scripture, uh, passages, Hebrews 12, 11, uh, Genesis two 18 Ephesians
five 25 are the ones I'm working on right now. I don't know any of those and you might. Um, but
anyway, uh, and it was just a
really good way to help me memorize them was literally, I would say it out loud and, or I
would listen to dwell and then say it out loud. It was kind of like that Kirk cousins, a quarterback
clip, you know, where he'd be like, you know, floppy, floppy Z 18, 49. Yeah. And then he would
repeat it back and he'd say it himself. So anyway, just, yeah, I think it was great.
I have two things to say.
Yeah.
One, maybe your lifestyle is a lot like Brad Knight,
Kanekuk, and you do a lot of archery.
Now you can throw your AirPods in,
listen to the Bible while you're doing archery.
Listen to the Bible while you're getting blobbed.
Yes.
Listen to the Bible while you're doing volleyball specialty.
Listen to the Bible during recon class
and you're trying to catch fish with your bare hand. Adventure class where you just, yeah, take a kid on a wild goose,
take them snipe hunting. Yes. Listen to the Bible while trying to sail and it doesn't work and you
get rescued by the jet skis. Do all that. Second thing I thought of, maybe some of you are like,
you know what? That's nice. I prefer to read the Bible. Hey, we're not saying don't read it. We're saying, I bet there's time in your day where you could
also be listening to it. Yeah. Do both. Why not one and the same? To quote Cuba Gooden Jr. in the
movie Radio, when he played the character of a special needs student being asked if he wanted
cherry or apple pie. I want both. I want both. Would you like to read the Bible or listen to it?
I want both.
I want both.

Um,
it, it,
it kind of dawned on me when you were talking about the QR codes for SBU
thing,
dude,
do you know what kind of cars are now being used?
So,
uh,
in Kansas city,
specifically Johnson County,
which is the Kansas side is like kind of known for being richer, whatever.
And there's one city called Leawood, which is one of the nicest of the cities.
Do you know what Leawood cars are now?
I think – is it going to be Teslas or is it going to be like PT Cruisers?
They're Teslas.
Are they really?
Yeah, Model Y.
And I'm like, that is the most like,
basically if you've watched Parks and Rec,
like Leawood is the Eagleton to like Kansas City, Missouri's Pawnee or whatever.
You know, like it's just like the very nice,
like perfect area.
And of course they're,
like I saw somebody get pulled over the other day
and there was a Tesla cop.
And I was like, of course, Leawood's driving Teslas.
That's interesting.
Cause on one end, it makes sense.
Police officers already have a laptop
pulled up while they drive, which is a little wild that that's allowed also yeah
they're like pulling you over like i think you might have been texting it's like what you're
you're on you're on home row yeah you're playing rainbow six over here on your computer and a
qwerty going on what the heck man that's not fair i wonder how that is charging for for one now i'm
thinking about tesla i mean they uh they cut the cost of the Model Y like crazy.
So it's probably a good time to get in there.
But also, yeah, can you do a full like,
what do you call them, shift?
You know, do you need to charge?
How's that work?
Surely you can do a shift,
but then what if you get in a police chase?
Yeah.
Like I'm down to 40 miles and the police chase starts.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Oh, life hack.
Yes.
Yeah.
Well, go ahead. Yeah, yeah. Like get in, life hack. Yes. Yeah. Well, go ahead.
Yeah, yeah.
Like get in a police chase when you know they're at the end of their shift.
Yeah, follow the policeman around and be like, I know this guy's running out of juice.
It's time for the crime.
And then, yeah, you do an armed robbery and get the heck out of there.
Yeah.
Then again, those cars are so fast, right?
Oh, yeah.
The only other
cars faster than teslas are probably like other teslas okay so there's gonna be car people it's
like well the porsche twin booster okay whatever i don't know interesting man yeah i just saw that
and i was like are you kidding i didn't and does it diminish the like a i don't think model wise
look cool anyway i think the rest of every other tesla
i think is cool they're probably the least cool looking one they look they look like a woman's
car to me i don't think they're very cool what if you were a woman driving it i okay i did better
yeah cool i'm not though so i don't know it just doesn't look like a cool car like they're cool on
the inside obviously but i think it diminishes. Anytime that the police adopt your model of car,
it's just not as cool anymore.
I would not buy a Ford Explorer
because that's what all the policemen drive.
Dodge Charger.
Dodge Charger are pretty cool.
But kind of though, you see them and you're like,
is that a cop car?
Oh, no, it's just a guy driving a Charger.
Back in the day, it was Lincolns you know back in the day it was uh lincoln's or
continentals or whatever it was yeah um so i saw a car the other day that had the little
i don't even know what that thing is is it oh it's a spotlight thing connected to their side mirror
it had that it looked exactly like a police car and on the side of it like it had stripes and it
had logos and the logo was a police badge looking thing and it just said gotcha that is that allowed it seems borderline illegal yeah i don't think that's okay police in person
ish gotcha yeah i said gotcha like in a you know a police looking crest or badge or something i
forget but like yeah blue striped on the center of it yeah they're definitely toeing the line
yeah like you know i never what what do you think oh you gotcha meant like oh you thought
uh that's not what i meant it meant like hey i support the police gotcha gotcha
me too right there with you blue yeah israel palestine israel me too yeah gotcha
gotcha gotcha it's like yeah it's wild man yeah i i know that they like sometimes
put them out for auction after they you know are no longer good so yeah you see know that they like sometimes put them out for auction after they, you know,
are no longer good. And so, yeah, you see ones that are like unmarked, but still have the little headlight. They just don't take them off. Uh-huh. But man, anyway, Teslas, I couldn't believe,
I was like, that's crazy. But yeah, maybe if they're cheaper now, they're not,
you could, you could justify the price or whatever. Yeah. Um, that's fine. Should we do our, uh,
another runaround of phony phrases?
Let's do it
Don't have many this week
Instead of Brad and I making up phrases
and telling each other what they are
you will say your new phony phrase
and the other person has to help explain what it means
Yes
I want you to help us out
My first one
It's not Walker Utah Ranger
Go ahead I was going to say, Tymon, I want you to help us out. Cool. All right, my first one. Hey, it's not Walker, Utah Ranger.
Go ahead.
One more time.
It's not Walker, Utah Ranger.
There was an old show.
Chuck Norris was the star of it called Walker, Texas Ranger.
Okay.
I don't know what I mean.
It's not Walker.
This is anti-Mormonism. Mormons are not cowboys. Let's just put it that way. No, it's not Walker. This is anti-Mormonism.
Mormons are not cowboys.
Let's just put it that way.
No, it's not Walker.
It's just, no, this is like Texas propaganda.
This is like, everything's better in Texas.
Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah. Texas pride.
We're selling flags, three for $5.
Yeah, Texas forever.
It's Walker, Texas Ranger for a reason.
They don't call it Walker, Utah Ranger.
Okay, I like that.
My thought for it was just that certain people
are better suited for certain environments
more than others. Hey, it's similar.
Yeah, he's really good at being a Texas
Ranger. He wouldn't be great in Utah.
It's not Walker Utah Ranger.
That's funny. Alright.
My first one is you can't take a
photo of photosynthesis.
Ooh, you can't take a
photo of photosynthesis. Ooh, you can't take a photo of photosynthesis.
Thoughts?
Some things are better left undocumented.
Mmm.
Wow.
That's my answer too, yeah.
That's my answer too.
Yeah, you got it.
Better left undocumented just sounds nice.
Undocumented.
Oh, undocumented.
Yesterday we were sitting on the couch and Rachel was lying to us about her whereabouts undocumented undocumented it sounds nice undocumented oh undocumented i yesterday we
were sitting on the couch and rachel was lying to us about her whereabouts and you said you want to
do phony phrases tomorrow i was like oh i haven't even wrote them down yeah i looked outside saw
grass wrote that down and just moved i mean in 10 seconds i wrote i have i don't know what it means
yeah so i don't know what it means no i just wrote down really quickly and just moved on you're saying
oh okay well i can tell you if you don't know what I mean. Okay, go ahead. You can't take a photo of this. In other words, like, hey, some things are tough to capture, but they're still, it doesn't
mean they're not real.
Like friendship.
Like wind.
Like God.
No, it's all physical science.
Spiritual.
Oh, yeah.
Like memories.
No.
No.
No.
Like erosion.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Like global warming
wind's good winds it's hard to take a photo of wind yeah but it's there you can't take yeah
what's that old quote like god's like the sunshine like you can't even when you can't see it you
still feel his warmth that's good or peeing in your pants one of those i've heard both either one
all right my next one uh millionaires don't have mullets That's good. Or peeing in your pants. One of those. I've heard both. Either one.
All right, my next one.
Millionaires don't have mullets.
The explanation is don't get a mullet because a mullet is a bad haircut.
And millionaires are smart people, so that's why they don't have mullets.
Yeah, I think it's like, hey, there's not some secret way to be a millionaire. It's not like maybe I pretend to be white trash and poor and that's what.
No.
They don't have mullets for a reason.
Okay.
Shape up.
Yeah.
Yeah, kind of.
I just said sometimes you have to sacrifice some fun in order to get where you want to go.
Okay.
And you don't have mullets.
Millionaires don't have mullets.
So.
I actually do have two that I agree with.
Heck yeah, Tommy.
Oh, okay.
So.
Time and time.
I think they'll be better since you guys have to guess.
Okay.
Because they're not great.
But first one is smelling doesn't prove anything.
Okay.
That actually sounds like it could be like a phrase.
Like, well, smelling don't prove anything.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Smelling doesn't prove anything.
I don't know what it means, but I sure do like it.
No, I think it just means like, hey, you can be deceived by a smell because, you know, a candle smells really good, but if you eat a candle, you're
going to regret it. Trust me. Oh, that's good. You know what I mean? And a candle is supposed
to mimic something else. Like what candle is that? Oh, cedar. That's not a cedar tree. It's
a cinnamon candle. That's waffle cone. Yeah. Not done. Tastes like waffle cone. Birthday cake.
Don't do it. Don't do it. So scents can easily be masked they can easily be you know
copied and pasted but seeing touching tasting feeling is is how you prove it yep yeah my
definition was like don't make a full judgment on anything until you fully experienced it
love it dang nail that yeah smell what's the phrase smelling doesn't prove anything smell
don't prove anything i think i think it's don't you gotta change it don't it's a southern phrase yeah no smelling smelling don't prove anything oh smelling don't prove anything. Smelling don't prove anything. I think it's don't. You got to change it to don't. It's a southern phrase.
Yeah, no smelling.
Smelling don't prove anything.
Smelling don't prove anything.
Smelling don't prove a darn thing.
Hey, what does smelling prove?
Not a darn thing.
Call and response.
Yeah, that's good.
Okay, mine.
Nine.
The number nine.
Nine's an odd number unless you're Santa or the Supreme Court.
I could see why I was stuttering to get this one out.
Nine's an odd number unless you're Santa or the Supreme Court.
Okay, what does Santa and the Supreme Court have in common?
Old traditions that need re-evaluated.
I don't know.
Nine is how many reindeer he probably has, is my guess.
Bingo.
Supreme Court, I don't know why nine's on the Supreme Court.
I have no idea.
That's baffling.
Nine's an odd number.
That's your saner of the Supreme Court.
In other words, hey, sometimes you need the uh what's the word untraditional unconventional way
of uh going about something but you'll have success through it okay time any thoughts no
this is just kind of a find your people find your crowd okay nine's odd to everybody else nine's weird oh okay it's literally
odd in this case yeah you know but it's it's an odd number but hey to santa nine's just right
yeah to the supreme court heck i throw in cats just right find your people find where you fit in
nine's a crowd unless you're santa um all right uh my next one is checkers and chess boards are identical. Ooh.
Uh-huh.
This is, you know, you could have, all right,
this is about two identical twins and one grows up to be gay.
Always.
Because one, it's like, yeah, we have the same genetics,
the same upbringing, everything looks the same,
but man, that queen's looking pretty, oh, dang it.
There could have been a better joke in there,
but I turned into a real queen.
Dang it, I should have said that.
I talk too fast podcasting.
So that's my guess.
Okay.
It's a stance on that.
Yeah, the answer, yeah, it's kind of similar.
You get to choose how you view a situation.
You can either view it two-dimensionally
or in much more detail.
That's a great phrase.
Checkers and chess both have the same board.
Yeah, checkers and chess boards are identical.
Yeah. Yeah, that's good. Thanks. Timon. Okay. One broken key ruins the experience.
Escape rooms. Yes. It's about the first leg of an escape room. One broken key ruins the experience. Yeah. Yeah. So yeah, you might, you might be buttoned up in every other aspect of life, but if like
there's, there's certain things you have to, you have to, you have to make sure you're
buttoned up and everything or else one flaw can be detrimental to the whole thing.
Okay.
So the buttoned up or the escape room.
Okay.
It is, I have, I have it typed out.
If a single key is broken on your computer, the entire experience of typing an email or
writing an essay is ruined.
That kind of key.
Yeah.
Every time you get that letter, it throws a wrench in everything. Yeah, no s on there. You just write yeah
I guess I also said so one uncooperative person in the group makes the entire effort frustrating and inconvenient. I
don't know I
Don't even remember having that as part of it. Yeah, I think so. Yes, that's it. Yeah, that's the meaning
I really got caught up on like a house key there. I got caught up on keyboard, like piano.
Piano keys.
That's what I was thinking of.
A lot of homonyms.
Yeah.
No subs.
Okay, my next one is bald people have great beards.
Okay.
So, do you want me to tell you?
No.
Bald people have great beards.
I mean, that's just, that's true.
That's accurate. I mean, that's just, that's true. That's accurate.
I think most of the time.
And that's, make lemonade out of lemons.
Yeah.
You don't have any lemons on top.
You got them down here.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah.
So basically.
Yes.
No, I'm on the same page.
Lemonades for your time?
No.
I just said, yeah,
just because someone is deficient in
one area doesn't mean they can't make up for it somewhere else right you know i can't uh i can't
swim i have uh hydrophobia hey why don't you paddle for us hey but you can fly yeah i don't
know what scenario this is that's good yeah bald people have great beards. Shout out Josh Bromfield.
Bed Bath & Beyond still has limits.
Bed Bath & Beyond still has limits.
What are those limits?
Walls.
Yes.
I mean, it's not just one door you walk in.
It's not Narnia.
This is still a brick-and-mortar store.
Don't get caught up in the marketing, in the clickbait.
It's Bed Bath and
4,000 square feet. Yeah, Bed Bath and Beyond
but not Bed Bath and Everything.
Not everything is as good as it seems.
Yes. That's a good word. Some things are too good
to be true. Yeah, so

You're worried about your emergency gas tank.
All right, two more.
You got to get used to your haircut.
Yeah, just had one.
Great clips.

Thanks.
Great clips.
They're the cheapest one,
but they do better than some of the more expensive ones.
That's going to be my one of the week
is great clips coming up.
Okay, spoiler. Okay.
Spoiler.
Yeah.
You got to get used to your haircut.
Often new situations take time to acclimate to like, but be patient with them.
Yeah.
Because especially with guys, is that, do you resonate with that time with like you
get a haircut and you're like, man, I think they messed it up.
And then like three days later, you're like, I'm the hottest guy in the world.
Yeah.
If you get married timing three days before the wedding get a haircut okay yeah yeah it's a it's a terrifying haircut but it
is it's necessary i also didn't take that advice but i've heard that's what you're supposed to do
when did you i think i did like three weeks oh wow yeah i don't know but if you do it over again
yep maybe you would okay last one uh addicts don't have to be filled.
Addict?
Addicts.
Oh.
I was like, I don't know. Addicts don't have to be filled.
I was like, I agree.
I think they should stop.
Yeah.
It's not worth it, guys.
Just stop.
Addicts don't need to be full of cocaine.
I agree, Brad.
Addicts.
Addicts.
Up above your house. They still serve a purpose.
They still insulate your home. We don't need
to throw junk up there just because we have the room.
Just because you have the room doesn't mean... Yeah, exactly.
Just because I have a free afternoon doesn't mean I need to spend it working
on something. Sometimes just enjoy the free afternoon. There you go.
Yeah. Just because you can put something in a far
away storage doesn't mean that's
better than just straight up getting out of your life.
Yep. Yeah. Attics don't need to be filled.
Bonus phrase. I'm just going to keep piggybacking off him.
Free time.
No, a free afternoon doesn't take the shape of its container.
And it means the exact same thing as what you just said.
Don't be an addict, guys.
All right.
A free afternoon.

So Main Street Roasters.

And they've been doing it for a couple of decades now.
They know what they're doing.
They ground their own.
They roast.
They make it.
They make the coffee beans.
They do it.
They do it themselves.
And they're not scrounging for pennies either.
Yeah, they just make great coffee.
Everyone loves them.
They got great smells.
It's a great coffee. Everyone loves them. They got great smells. It's a great

but also across the whole world.
We're trying to grow their business
even bigger.
Last night, during my birthday
party, Catherine said,
the end of the party is going to be me making a massive pot
of Main Street Roasters coffee
and giving it to you
and your friends
and you guys are going to go
to the casino for real.
And I thought to myself,
I just want to drink the coffee.
I don't care about anything else.
I don't even care
about my friends anymore.
I just want Main Street Roasters coffee.
Let that be a lesson, everybody.
So,
didn't sleep a wink last night.
Just kidding.
Anyway, though, Main Street Roasters, truly just great, great coffee, great price, great mission, and huge supporters of us.
So please support them back, MainStreetRoasters.com.
GRKC.
Yeah.
Let's do some wins of the week.
Okay, yeah, let's do it.
So my win of the week is that I just literally right before this took Bo to get his haircut. Because as I mentioned,
we were getting our family photos taken with Celia O'Brien.
Shout out to her.
And yeah, like Catherine was like,
we got to get his haircut today.
We got to do it.
And so hair, great clips open at nine,
got there 855 ready to go.
We're like literally waiting on them to like turn the key.
Black Friday.
And yeah, it really was.
And there was like four other people there too. Wow. let us let us go first because i was like he's
gonna go to preschool after this so that's nice um yeah really sweet but um my win of the week
is that i got a good haircut at great clips because i think it is you never know with great
clips i know you know i've never had the same person twice which i i couldn't do that i and i
i can't believe that you can do that as somebody who like
is in front of people every week. I would say almost every time I'm sitting in that chair,
I think, Jake, you should care more about this. Like you have good hair. It's a part of your
image and you're in front of people a lot. Right. And then I just like, I mean, still though,
it's just hair. You can't screw it up that bad unless you just don't hear what you ask, I guess.
But anyway, my win of the week is that Bo got a good haircut at Great Cliffs.
That's nice.
So, yeah.
It's cool.
I mean, he was silent, dude.
Did not show emotion, did not talk.
Just sat there.
Just literally like stank-eyed, looked in the mirror the whole time.
And then they'd be like, all right, put your chin down and you go still looking at himself yeah he's like trying to look at himself by doing it
but i'm like dude relax chill and the lady was so nice and so good he did a great she said like
he is doing so much better than most like any kids really his age oh that's good and i'm like
that's really sweet but i wish that he had a little more social skills by doing he could respond
yeah but anyway uh i made sure he said thank you really loud before he got his dum-dum.
You gotta.
It's a must.
How close are you to Bo when he's getting his haircut?
You sitting down or kind of nearby?
No, they were like, you can just sit in one of those chairs.
So I sat in the one like across the aisle so I could see him in the mirror.
Nice.
But like I tried not to talk to him too much because sometimes when I would talk to him,
he'd kind of look up or something.
Luckily, like most of the time, the Clippers aren't super sensitive to that or whatever.
And then there was one time where she's like, I'm going to do like right around his ears.
Can you come and just hold his head steady?
And so I did that.
And he was so – like he didn't even like complain or like – he wasn't tense.
He just was like – Mitch McConnell. Sitting there. Yeah. I was like, I don't think't even like complain or like, you know, he wasn't tense. He just was like Mitch McConnell sitting there.
Yeah.
I was like, I don't think I need to do this, but okay.
You know?
And anyway, he did a good job.
So that's my way.
A couple of weeks ago, I think I talked about Rachel and I were just, you know, doing a
lot of best friend stuff.
Uh-huh.
And, uh, I had a couple iterations of that.
Uh, last week, you know, I had to fly out on a Wednesday, which is kind of a bummer.
I just wasn't going to be here very much. And Tuesday night, Rachel had plans. She has been, she got
asked recently to coach a club volleyball team. Yeah. And so she's like, you know what? I'll do
it when I can. I'm not going to be the head coach for anything. And so anyway, she had volleyball
practice like seven 30 to nine. And it's like, this is our last couple hours being together.
And so I was like, I'm just going to come with you. And it was a pretty like chill environment.
So Rachel and I coached volleyball together for like an hour and a half
nice last week it was so fun i loved it obviously i don't know that much about volleyball but i was
still there to help i'd shag balls and run the scoreboard i did like a couple drills with them
yeah scoreboard in practice yeah i know like a like the electronic one yeah and connected to
this guy's phone cool but these times they're they're changing. Isn't that funny? Like that we're like impressed by that.
Yeah.
Like we sound so old probably,
but it makes sense.
There would be an app,
I guess.
It totally makes sense,
but it doesn't seem like they would let anybody use it.
Yeah.
Like it was such a privilege back in the day for the scoreboard to be on when it wasn't like a game.
A hundred percent.
Yeah.
But it was cool to get to see Rachel one in an environment where she knows so much and is so
talented, so knowledgeable and to get a glimpse into like, Oh, this could be a daughter someday
of ours that she's coaching. I would love to be Rachel's assistant coach. I hope she wants to
coach our, you know, daughter hopefully, you know, in, in volleyball. So it was just really fun. It
was a new kind of environment to see Rachel and that was fun. Bonus one of the week, other best
friend stuff. We ran a mile together yesterday.'d that go pretty good you know we got going
and i'm just running around i'm running football routes and i'm um you know uh running in reverse
because i was just feeling good i was like let's go right now while i'm in the mood to run like
let's hurry before this goes away and rachel just like it was like rachel's the old dog and i was
the young puppy and she's just like just let him run he'll wear himself out right and she was like i can't wait for you literally running circles
yeah and so then i just tried to run but uh i don't know the pace we're running at it was like
i'm running at a pace where like almost hurts my knees worse because we're like going at like a
slow pace she's like we'll go whatever pace you need and so then i just ran around the block and
just scurried on and it wasn't too bad.
Did she keep up or did she?
Oh yeah, Rachel's in great shape.
She was not even, I mean, I was dying afterwards,
but I still ran pretty quickly.
And Rachel was just like, all right, back in the house.
All right, let's get cleaning.
I was like, I got to sit down.
So I was fine, but I did finish a pretty quick mile.
And I was like, yeah, miles not that bad.
Let's do this more.
Cool.
So we're gonna do it more.
What does a mile look like in our, well you shouldn't because then you tell so you go down
so our our address is this yeah yeah it'd be tough but not bad yeah not bad closer than you think
just basically around that corner by quick trip if you go to yeah yeah okay not even fully around
really it's like basically down and back interesting yeah really
go see the uh yeah say hi say hi to t t people yeah yeah i was trying to think of that place
but the whatever the pyramid scheme where you used to get smoothies herbal life yes yeah yeah
go say hi to them and then come back that's a mile basically to me like it seems like volleyball is
like a lost cause to coach not not and what i mean by that is like i because i know
so little about volleyball i would think like you're either good at volleyball or not you know
like whereas basketball it's like i could teach somebody how to shoot a basketball better or worse
but to me it's like i don't know i have no idea when you bump a volleyball why it flies to the
left sometimes and why it doesn't you know what i mean um so i was like i somewhat
get it i saw i mean because there is parts of it like i don't know if i'd be that good of a coach
because sometimes it's just like hey just be coordinated just just do it and make it go where
you want to go but other parts like seeing volleyball it's like oh i mean it's very maybe
not even technical but there's just a lot of i mean they're running plays and they're running
you know it's not just like i could get on board with that yeah yeah because it's not just like
um what would be a good example a sport it's not just like baseball
we're like right fielder that's where you go this is like do we want to put our setter in front we
want to put our setter back once we have because you do you're forced to rotate it's like when our
setter's in the front that looks different okay how do we want to sub people out you know there's
a good amount of fun strategy to it and yeah i hope volleyball catches on becomes more popular
because it's very exciting i think if you watch a volleyball game, you're like, wow,
that's awesome. Yeah. But it just doesn't get a ton of attention.
I don't know. Um, anyway, yeah, I thought it was kind of fun, fun facts, but yeah,
good time. Oh dude, I have a kind of a funny story. Um, real quick. Yeah. Um, so I was at
McLean's the other day and I was going to go through the drive-thru.
I forget where I was going, but I had to be quick. I was just going to like take it and leave,
but the drive-thru was super long and it seemed like it wasn't that full inside. And so as I'm
like seeing that the drive-thru is long, I decided I'm going to park. And so, you know, I'm in a big
truck, not great turning radius. So I park really like pretty close to the truck next to me.
But I was like, oh, I'm just going to be in and out.
This guy is not like no problem.
It's not that big of a deal.
But for whatever reason, maybe because they were servicing all the people in the drive-thru,
it took them a long time to bring out my stuff.
And yeah, in the time that I was waiting, I look out the window and there's this pretty old man,
like in this like big old Dodge Ram, just trying to like squeeze himself into his like truck.
And I'm just like, it wasn't like impossible for him to get in, but it was definitely like,
it felt like he was like, you know, pushing his door up against my truck and just like shimmying
and greasing himself up. And then I was like, and then I did get my truck and just like shimmying and greasing himself up and
then i was like and then i did get my food and i was like i could have gone out when he was out
there but i'm like i gotta just wait i gotta wait this out a little bit i just felt so bad because
i was like i could have reparked but i just assumed this will take two minutes surely this
guy's not coming out in that time i'll be in there to hang boy was i wrong that's funny that is a
bummer biff of the. Biff of the week.
Biff of the week.
Yeah, like this will be quick.
Or even just like, well, they kind of parked bad too, so it's fine.
And then you see it and you're like, oh, I feel bad that he's having to squeeze in there.
Yeah, yeah.
It was like borderline like that guy might have needed to go through the passenger side.
You know what I mean?
It was tight.
Oh, man.
I just felt so bad.
So think about that next time you're parking.
Hey. Look at the other person. Always just felt so bad. So think about that next time you're parking. Hey.
Look at the other person.
Always be thinking when parking.
Yeah.
Bad parking affects more than just you.
Maybe that's a...
Bad parking affects too.
I don't know.
It takes two to bad park...
Nah.
