Starting point is 00:00:00 Tymon, call me a paleontologist because I got a bone to pick with you, brother. Oh, no. Permission to dig? Permission to, yeah, excavate. Excavate? Really, it's just an old man thing. This is such a small thing that I should not care about. He's not capitalizing his letters again?
Starting point is 00:00:17 Close-ish. That's not a Gen Z thing. It's just a what, why, why. I'm kind of scared. Did you just recently get a new license plate? Yes. Kansas changed their license plates to have like four letters and then three numbers. Oh, it's at a three and three?
Starting point is 00:00:34 I don't know why, but it's bothering the heck out of me. And there's no space. Yeah. Something about it. It's like, it doesn't look like a password. It looks like you're driving a government vehicle around or something. It is interesting. I don't know why, but it's really setting me off.
Starting point is 00:00:47 And I'm the only one that has. No, no. But you're the only one in this room that does right now. I see why you have such a problem with Tymon specifically. Yeah. Because he started it. Yeah, Tymon did it. As far as you know.
Starting point is 00:01:00 As far as I know. Tymon could have said, no, thank you. I'd like the three and three, please. No, thanks, guy. Go three and three. And I'm pretty sure it used to be numbers, letters. Okay. Now I think it's switched.
Starting point is 00:01:11 Four letters, three numbers. I don't know. I think it's letters at the end still. Is it? Yeah. What is your license plate number? Well, now I'm mad at Tymon for trying to prove you wrong. Now I'm mad at Tymon for just being insubordinate. Insubordinate.
Starting point is 00:01:23 How do you know Tymon's new license plate isn't just a vanity plate? What did it say? It said... Oh, dang. What did it say? Oh, it said... It said...
Starting point is 00:01:35 It said... Oh, what did it say? Love. It said L-U-V. Yeah. Love. And then it said N... Love N. N-R-V. Yeah. Love. And then it said N-R-S. And it looks inappropriate, but he means neighbors.
Starting point is 00:01:51 Oh, love. He loves neighbors. I thought he was saying love. He's a Viking. He's a fan of the animals that Vikings rode on back in the day. And so he loves, he loves Norse's. Norse's. Norse's. Okay.

Starting point is 00:03:17 start with no no you start you start off hotought. Fought. I fought you. There are so many ghosties in the Northeast. I saw so many of them this past weekend. Yeah? We need to do some kind of get-together in Pennsylvania. There's just so many of them. Really? I think between Lancaster, Lancaster?
Starting point is 00:03:37 Lancaster. Lancaster, PA, Gate CURB, you know, and the Reading Show was really great. There's just so many ghosties there. Geographically, how close are those two cities? I don't know where Lancaster is, but Reading is only like an hour west-ish of Philadelphia. Okay. So just a pretty decent suburb of it.
Starting point is 00:03:57 What makes Reading a place that you guys keep going back to if you're in Philadelphia? Do you know? I don't know. Maybe there's just a lot of people there. I'll tell you, not a lot going on in Reading. And I don't like talking bad about towns. But we went there on a Sunday and there was just nothing open.
Starting point is 00:04:10 Like, there was no cute coffee shops downtown. It was crazy. Hey, two acai places? Oh, both closed on Sunday. No coffee shops. Just completely closed. Yeah. Okay, well, there's Starbucks. All right. Not ideal, but I'll take it. Starbucks. Closed on Sunday. It's just like a very, like... Just nothing's open. Yeah. Conservative, Christian, like, you know, Just nothing's open. Yeah, conservative Christian,
Starting point is 00:04:25 like, you know, just nothing. Or whatever, something. Yeah. Just understood. Yeah, Lucas actually opened with it. He did jokes about how nothing is open in this whole town because it really was true.
Starting point is 00:04:34 That was our experience. But anyway... But yet your show's on Sunday. Yeah, that's the only thing open. You get some good times with some ghosties, though. Yeah, saw a lot of ghosties. Signed a hat that Isaac had already signed that's always fun
Starting point is 00:04:48 and yeah the Reading show was awesome all the shows this weekend were very very good but yeah they were just awesome it's just like sometimes I can never really get down on myself but just like never super confident in myself as a stand-up comedian.
Starting point is 00:05:05 I'm like, I'm an opener. I've been doing this three years. I have a lot to learn, a lot to get better at. But then people are just so nice. Yeah. I don't know. When I only do 20 minutes and I'm in between Lucas and Trey, it works really well. Man, I just felt like I was getting them going.
Starting point is 00:05:18 It was really loud, and it was really fun. I had some great moments. Go off. Good crowd work. Thank you, Tymon. Do you prefer a solid 20 over, do you prefer an eight out of 10, 20 over a seven out of 10, 30? Oh yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:33 Yeah. The goal is always to leave them one or more. So whatever it takes. Let them more. If I can leave them wanting more by doing 20 minutes, then let's do it. Yeah. It's easier to do it with five to 10 minutes,
Starting point is 00:05:42 but yeah, so it went great. Good, some fun crowd work in all the towns. I need to start writing them down better. It's hard to remember now. five to ten minutes but yeah so it went great good uh some fun crowd work in all the towns i i need to start writing them down better it's hard to remember now in the moment you're like of course i'll remember that it was hilarious dude but when you've done it a million times yeah now they all kind of bleed together but i remember a guy who's like had a old-time telephone ringtone go off made fun of that guy for all that's not even right that still sounds too like new age just like the old school landline went off. Really went off on him.
Starting point is 00:06:07 Just for having... One girl, I said, what's like... What's your town kind of known for? She's like, it's just like a... I don't know, like a small town. It's just small. Everything's small. I was like dwarfism.
Starting point is 00:06:20 A lot of dwarfism. Yeah. And I was like, you know, doing some jokes there. And then what do you do for a living? I run a daycare. There you go. Everybody's small daycare there you go everybody's small yeah of course everything's small
Starting point is 00:06:27 yeah that's all you operate with yeah you got a lot longer shelf life there with those guys hey the whole thing is small nice anyway just fun times
Starting point is 00:06:34 Reading was great Go Seas are great good times Philadelphia I'm feeling confident and my comment of the week hey whatever you have to do your comment of the week
Starting point is 00:06:42 I'll just do my comment of the week I'm just going comes from Katie Beth Edmund oh yeah week. Hey, whatever. You have to do your comedy week. I'll just do my comedy week. I'm just going. Comes from Katie Beth Edmond. Oh, yeah. Got to see Jake perform this last week in Norfolk. It was so wonderful. I also gave a quick wave to Isaac at the merch table. My family
Starting point is 00:06:57 came along when Jake came to Virginia Beach over a year ago, and wow, he has got this down. Jake was so confident and hilarious. After the show, my family said they wish they could have seen more Jake. Leave one more? That's right. Leave one more.
Starting point is 00:07:09 One more. Then they called me a super fan, so yeah, I'm pretty proud. Come back to North, and then she bleeped out the rest. Anytime, Jake. Did you make jokes about that? Yeah, I did a bit. Yeah. Yeah, it's like I grew up.
Starting point is 00:07:21 I wouldn't even be able to say the town I'm in right now. I mean, I'm still scared to say it now. I don't even know how to pronounce it. Just kind of mumble through it. But anyway, Katie Beth, thanks, mama. Thanks, mama. Thanks for the kind words, mama. Thank you, mama. That was nice.
Starting point is 00:07:33 I appreciate words of aff, especially with stand-up. I still feel new at it. Because you're going somewhere again next week? Yeah, we leave Wednesday. So it's a Wednesday through Saturday. Where do we go? Roanoke? Something like that, I think.
Starting point is 00:07:45 Been there before? I don't know off the top of my head. Yeah. That's amazing. No, no, no. Maybe. Isn't that kind of amazing to you? Because the limo...
Starting point is 00:07:54 Oh, sorry, sorry, sorry. I meant like, have you ever performed there? Oh, never done comedy. Huh? No, I don't think we've ever done comedy there. But isn't that kind of amazing that you're like... Yeah. It's hard to remember all the places I've done comedy.
Starting point is 00:08:03 Yeah, except if you did Richmond one time. Never done Roanoke. Okay. Are those even close? I don't know. Same state. Ooh, I felt it on my foot. Yeah, that wedding ring.
Starting point is 00:08:12 Wedding ring? Went a ways over there. You want to switch? Switch rings, dude? Speaking of jewelry, I noticed you're wearing a watch. What's that all about? Oh, dude, Ghosty sent us some watches. Oh, I have one?
Starting point is 00:08:23 Yeah. We got it. We got it. Like, so John Luke Cave, shout out to Luke. Yeah. Um, tried to start a, tried to, he started, he started a drop shipping business a while back. I think he was probably, I'm assuming things, but I think he saw like, Hey, you can make extra money, passive income with, you know, Alibaba or whatever, and started a watch business. And I don't think it, um, ever came to fruition. So he's like,
Starting point is 00:08:46 Hey, I got like 20 watches. You want, you want me to send them to you? Oh, cool. So some of them are wild. That one looks nice.
Starting point is 00:08:52 It's fun. I don't know if it works that well. It seems, it seems like about every two hours it loses a minute. So that's rough for a watch or, or sometimes, but I don't know if it's really the watch not working well or if it's this
Starting point is 00:09:07 if the dial just comes every once in a while out a little bit. Well, that's why we support good rangers, not China. That's right. This is from Lige. L-I-G-E. My Lige. My Lige.
Starting point is 00:09:22 Let's see. Oh, Catherine. We hired a maid cleaning service to come to our house today um dude i want it yeah yeah it sounds so awesome okay uh arena holyfield diamond yeah i know who that is do you yeah actually yeah she's like local yeah yeah and she came to i know someone goes to her church She's like a green leaf girl who like I, whatever. Yeah. Her and Paul brought Paul Bryant, uh, came to since his ability, whatever came to, anyway. Awesome. Uh, that was a weird conversation, but now I believe you guys for a while. I thought you guys were just messing with me. I really hope you'll time it. Well, I thought time was like, yeah, no, it took me a second.
Starting point is 00:10:04 Sorry. I'm just not good at talking, but that's okay. Yeah. Anyway. Yeah. Yeah. She works for his company. Clean Heart Maids. Shout out to Clean Heart Maids.
Starting point is 00:10:13 Created me a clean heart. Oh, God. Clean Heart Maids. Clean Heart Maids. Anyway, they come to my house today. And renew a right. Oh, sorry. Renew.
Starting point is 00:10:22 Yeah. Restoring me. But they came to my house today, this morning, do a deep clean of the house. Catherine's like, we got all the sickness. We're kind of getting over it. Let's, let's get it out. Let's get all the germs out, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Um, and yesterday Catherine cleaned our house very well. Pre-cleaner pre-clean for the, Oh, yep. A hundred percent. Something my mom would do. This is, this is the greatest business idea in the world. It seems like, I don't know, maybe, maybe not everybody would do this, but like, it
Starting point is 00:10:53 seems like most people are going to be like, I can't make them clean too much. So I'm going to clean up beforehand. And then you walk in and it's like, well, people aren't really going to notice if I don't clean that well, it's pretty clean here already. Like our house was cleaner when they got there today than it has been for two months. It was so spick and span. Like we woke the kids up today. We're like, don't play with a single toy.
Starting point is 00:11:15 We're going to breakfast. We're going eating out. Like we're leaving. All right. Life hack. Three months from now, you tell Catherine, hey, I'm going to do a little something nice for you. Go out, get a little spa day. I'm going to have a little something nice for you. You go out, get a little spa day.
Starting point is 00:11:25 I'm going to have a cleaner come to my house while you're at the spa. And that's kind of how you leave it. Catherine's like, well, I could feel bad. I'm going to clean up the house before I go to the spa.
Starting point is 00:11:33 Wow. While she's out to the spa, all you really do is just spray a bunch of cleaner. Just like give the shower a wipe down. Give the counter a wipe down. Just so it smells really clean in there. Maybe fold the towel
Starting point is 00:11:44 or like the toilet paper up a little bit. Do 10 minutes of work, and she'll think you hired a cleaner to come for an hour and a half. That is genius. And she has cleaned the house for you. Open up the windows. Yeah. Yeah. Put some Lysol in the air.
Starting point is 00:11:57 Have a new candle she's never seen before going when she gets back. Like, wow, she even brought us a candle. Yeah, she's best. That's Arena. That's Arena for you. That's what time and knows best. That's Arena Holyfield. That's what Tymon knows her. That's right. Anyway, I was like, is there another
Starting point is 00:12:09 business where we can basically have the people do the work for us? I think dentistry is this way. People go to the dentist like, well, I gotta floss before I go to the dentist. Not me. I eat on the weight of the dentist. I make them earn it. That's right. I have a tub of popcorn before I go. I mean it in between the cleaning. That's right. I have a tub of popcorn before. I mean it in between, you know, cleaning.
Starting point is 00:12:27 That's right. Like between the hygienist and the dentist that comes in. I'm eating more popcorn. I don't think so, Dr. Grosvenor. I think people really like to floss the day they're going to the dentist. And no other day. Yeah. And so you're just super bloody.
Starting point is 00:12:41 Yeah. Do you guys floss? Why would I? Give me one good reason to floss. Why does anyone ever floss? One time, this reminds me, we were, this is, maybe I was
Starting point is 00:12:56 back in Iowa for Christmas, and for whatever reason, I got looking up just like, I was just quizzing, I was like, Tim, what are you learning about right now in law school? And he told me, he's like, we'll see about that. And I just Googled whatever, you know, some category of life I've never even heard of. It was just Googling questions and asking Tim and also everyone was answering. It was like a multiple choice and it ended up being kind of fun. It's like, you can kind of maybe guess, you know, like who is at fault here?
Starting point is 00:13:19 It's kind of fun to guess. Anyway, we were doing this for a few minutes and i feel like everyone's having a good time i don't know everyone gets the question wrong tim gets it right and he's like that's you know you know law school or something and tim and rachel's grandma goes why do we need any of this and tim's like this is my career and also it's the law Law's a pretty big deal. What's your argument here? She got like five questions in a row. Why do we need any of this stuff? She's like, yeah, she's still living in Mayberry. There's nothing that goes wrong in this town.
Starting point is 00:13:55 There's no crime. No one sues anybody. No. That's not real. That's me and flossing. What's the big idea? Want to get bloody and take four minutes out of my day? Four minutes. Four minutes, then what? You're just bad at flossing. What's the big idea? Want to get bloody and take four minutes out of my day? Four minutes, then what?
Starting point is 00:14:07 You're just bad at flossing. It's hard to get in there. I feel like I should floss. I'm not quite with you on why does anyone floss. I feel like it would be a good thing to floss, but I don't. Oh, it's definitely a good thing for you. Maybe that's just big dentistry, because they always tell
Starting point is 00:14:24 you to floss. But are they controlled by the floss companies? Yeah. What's, what's in that floss that you don't know about? That's, you know, MRNA decaying your teeth so that you need the dentist to fix it. That's why I drink sparkling flavored stuff out of a can. I get my, that's right. Get my fluoride fluoride that way. Anyway. Yeah. I'm just trying to think of another business idea where basically they do the work. What's it, Nathan, for you, that show? The moving? Yeah, like CrossFit moving company.
Starting point is 00:14:52 Yes. Where you pay people to move stuff for you. That's very genius. That's fun. Well, John Locate, thanks for the watch. Yeah, man. I'll bring some over for you. I'm intrigued to see which ones you're like attracted to because there are some there's one that like it's literally just
Starting point is 00:15:10 two two like dots like almost like metal dots and they just move every once in a while and one represents the hour one represents the minutes i'm like that's one of those ones it's like i'm never gonna wear this but i can see jake like, that's actually pretty cool. I love dots. Yeah. Dots are cool. So, you know, yeah. That's fun. Uh, can we do funny, phony phrases? Let's do it.
Starting point is 00:15:32 Let's do it. It's back. We've done this, uh, segment twice before. I think these are phrases that don't exist. Phony phrases. Brad, what's your first one? Um, first of all, I want to say shout out to the ghosties. I went live last night and got some submissions from them.
Starting point is 00:15:49 Did you plagiarize any of your work? Did you cheat, Tymon? I'm not going to give credit to anybody. Yeah, me neither. It's all my own original work. I'm not going to tell you which ones are theirs, which ones are mine. Oh, I have something similar. I came up with I have six total or five or six total and two of
Starting point is 00:16:06 them are AI. Whoops. That's plagiarism. That is more plagiarized than mine. I wanted to play a game. All right. If you can tell which is AI. Okay.
Starting point is 00:16:16 Let's go. Let's just go one by one then. Okay. Uh, Burger King doesn't wear the crown. Explain this one. Just because you call yourself the King doesn't mean you're the best. You're not the best. Burger King doesn't wear the crown. Explain this one. Just because you call yourself the king doesn't mean you're the best. You're not the best. Burger King doesn't wear the crown. Just because you have the nominal name,
Starting point is 00:16:29 just because your last name is the same as Steve Triplett's doesn't mean you just automatically are guaranteed this birthright. You make your own way in life. Burger King doesn't wear the crown. Just because you get a domain off GoDaddy,
Starting point is 00:16:46 you don't need to father a child. Yeah. That's what you're saying, basically? Yeah. That is good. Burger King doesn't wear the crown. Burger King doesn't wear the crown. That's good.
Starting point is 00:16:53 Thank you. Nice. Oh, all of them? Yeah, yeah. Oh, okay. Or if we want. I don't know. That way we can play Tymon's game.
Starting point is 00:17:01 Hey, that's like using a paper bag on a rainy day. It's just got to get wet. It's just not going to be effective. Yeah. Yeah. Man, that's sweeter than water in the middle of the night. That's good. Yeah. That just feels good, dude.
Starting point is 00:17:15 There's nothing like night water. I just need a drink of water right now. Yeah. I'm trying to figure out a time to use it in a sentence. Just like, dude, I cured that golf ball. that was sweeter than water in the middle of the night that was just perfect oh yeah um hey you don't see the melted ice cube till your socks wet i get it yeah you don't you feel it you thought the ground was totally fine all of a sudden like i guess i stepped on a somewhat melted ice cube. Take my sock off now. Wow.
Starting point is 00:17:47 You can get sunburned when it's cloudy. That's a good word. That's a good word. Australia, for sure. Hey, yeah. Don't put your guard down all the way. You can get sunburned when it's cloudy. Yeah, put your guard up.
Starting point is 00:17:56 That's good. Okay. Where there's a sink, there's also a drain. I don't really get that one that much. That one wasn't good. I kind of get it, but... Where there's a sink, there's also a drain. Just like, eh, I don't know. I'm having trouble finding it.
Starting point is 00:18:12 This one is... I wrote this one down purely because Caleb Tye Water sent it to me. Oh, that's nice. I don't really get it, but I put Caleb Tye Water next to it because Jake will be excited about it. Toes don't curl in the winter. What does that mean?
Starting point is 00:18:28 I don't get it, nor is it true. I don't understand. You ever nestled up next to an open fire, Caleb? I don't know when my toes ever curl. Much less in the summertime. Toes don't curl in the winter. I was like, Caleb, you're a weirdo. Good try.
Starting point is 00:18:45 Let me try it. Okay. Toes don't grow in the winter. I was like, Caleb, you're a weirdo. Good try. So let me try it. Okay. Let him try. Let's see. How about... That's a tail that belongs to a different dog. That tail belongs to a different dog. Just it doesn't quite match up.
Starting point is 00:19:00 No. Yeah, it's not quite it. It's like someone's face doesn't fit their body shape or something. That's a tail of a different dog right there that's good i like that okay this one's uh submitted by i believe it's susan i can't remember susan walker maybe anyway um she submitted like four and like on our live and i was like i don't get it i'm not writing that down finally i was like you're trying so hard i'm writing this down for you. They're so skinny or he's so skinny. He could turn sideways and stick his tongue out and he would look like
Starting point is 00:19:28 a zipper. How do you even think of that? She had some other ones that were even more like I don't know what's going on upstairs. Wait, that's interesting. That's fascinating. You can even think of something like that. Say it again. So skinny he could turn sideways and stick his tongue out and he looks like a zipper.
Starting point is 00:19:47 I don't know. That's not how zippers look to me, but I I don't know. Maybe that it's true. Yeah, and there's a typo on there. So I don't know. I'll end it with this one. I got more, but this one's just simple. If the shirt's too big, don't wear it, which
Starting point is 00:20:01 means it means, hey, if it doesn't make sense, if it's not the right fit, then don't force it. Yeah, don't wear it. Which means? It means, hey, if it doesn't make sense, if it's not the right fit, then don't force it. Yeah, don't force it. If it's too big, don't wear it. If it's too big, don't wear it. Those are my phony phrases. Me and the ghosties. That's fun. It's about half and half. Alright, Tim, you have six and two are AI.
Starting point is 00:20:18 Correct. Alright, give it to us. That's like taking a photo with the cap on. Someone's confident in what they're doing. Okay, no, I'm with you. Yeah, That's like taking a photo with the cap on. Someone's confident in what they're doing. Okay, no, I'm with you. Someone's like confidently doing something, but they don't realize they're doing it blindly. They're going to make a fool of themselves. It's like taking a photo with the cap on. Dude, your lens cap is on.
Starting point is 00:20:35 Definitely timing. It's like taking a photo with the cap on. It's like, I try to fire up the grill and you're all out of propane. Something like that. I'm not claiming that any of mine are good. Hey, I like it. Okay. This one's so stupid.
Starting point is 00:20:51 The rules of a graham cracker can be broken. Meaning, graham crackers, they have the lines and the perforations in them to help you, but even if you break them in a different spot, they still take them. Break where you want to break them. You got me with the explanation. At first I was like, what does that mean? You can go outside the boundaries sometimes. Okay. Yeah, you want to break them. You got me with the explanation. At first I was like, what does that mean?
Starting point is 00:21:05 You can go outside the boundaries sometimes. Okay. Yeah, you can color outside the lines. Yeah. Okay. It is fun that graham... How many foods come with perforation? Is it only graham crackers?
Starting point is 00:21:16 Kinda. Maybe. Sure. Hershey's? There you go. Hershey's. Kit Kat, for sure. Yeah, a lot of chocolate.
Starting point is 00:21:22 But how many non-chocolates come with perforation? Not many. Non-chocolate perforation? Okay, not many. Non-choc perforage. Could you argue bread with a crust? No. Okay. Okay.
Starting point is 00:21:33 All right. Alrighty. That's like climbing a staircase made of sand. Ooh, I like that one. Putting effort into something that would never work. The sand keeps just crumbling underneath you. Yeah. I guess the sand doesn't have water. will never work. The sand keeps just crumbling underneath you. I guess the sand doesn't have water.
Starting point is 00:21:48 It might work. Turn into mud and the mouse gets to the top. It's like believing a selfie. Hear me out. A selfie can sometimes be a mirror image of what the actual world looks like. Therefore, a false view of reality. If someone is trusting something that isn't completely
Starting point is 00:22:06 true, it's like that. You know, zipper one's not sounding too bad right now. Zipper one makes a lot more sense now. That's like sticking a tongue out and sideways in a selfie. In the sand. Okay.
Starting point is 00:22:27 Planting seeds in concrete. Attempting to initiate change in an unchangeable environment. Wasting time on something won't bear any fruit. That's good. And then one last one. A pirate can still shoot a gun. They're known for their swords. Even if you feel like you have limitations,
Starting point is 00:22:45 don't let that stop you. Pirates have an eye patch, but they can limitations don't let that stop you pirates have an eye patch but they can still aim a pistol oh pirates have an eye patch yeah there we go that's it i thought three of them were ai so uh how bad i am at this i guess no no no no those are fun what are your guesses okay plant seeds and concrete yes okay that's my guess too and then the one that he explained verbatim. The ones that like were pretty well written out as far as explanations. What was the other one that you said?
Starting point is 00:23:13 The third or fourth one. The climbing up sand. Those are my three guesses for AI. No, climbing up sand. There's two AI. Yeah, I know. My three guesses. What was your fourth one that you said, Tymon? Believing a selfie? Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:28 Believing a selfie, though? A selfie. That is so random, that AI. I think I'm going to go sand and concrete. All right, I'll go selfie and concrete. It was sand and concrete. Dang. The selfie one, like the way you explained it. I have it written pretty like,
Starting point is 00:23:43 I have a selfie can sometimes be a mirror image of what the actual world looks like and therefore a false view of reality. Time it is AI. Impressive. All right, Jake. My funny phrases are birds aren't homeless. You ever think about that? If you have
Starting point is 00:23:59 skills, if you have knowledge to do something, you can never have that taken away from you. If you have the knowledge to build a nest, you can never have that taken away from you. Birds can always, if you have the knowledge to build a nest, you can always build yourself a home. Deep. Hey, birds ain't homeless.
Starting point is 00:24:11 Come on. Gas ain't free. Let's stick with the tree theme, if you don't mind. The motif? Sharks can't climb trees. You say this like, look, I'm good at stuff.
Starting point is 00:24:24 I can't do everything. it's like uh hey jake do you want to do stand-up comedy and then edit your own special and sing a little song hey come on great white sharks can't climb trees right like sharks are very respected in their environment they could do a handful of things but they're not not, yeah, they're not arborists. You don't ask them to climb a tree. Right. All right, this one's a little different. This one's less of like an idiom. It's more just like, whatever.
Starting point is 00:24:58 Bedtime in China. Okay. I want us to start using this more. So I looked up the Chinese time zone versus ours. So 10 p.m. there is 8 a.m. here. So I think we should start using this just another way of saying like in the morning or breakfast time. Okay. You know, like I sit that over.
Starting point is 00:25:17 Do you see it? Oh, yeah. I got it around. It must have been bedtime in China when I got that. That just means this morning. Okay. Yeah. It must have been.
Starting point is 00:25:23 We got together for coffee. Oh, when was it? Bedtime in China. I like the idea of it being like a motivation. Like, hey, they're sleeping right now, but we're just starting. We have to get to work. Yeah, it's bedtime in China right now, boys. It's lock-in.
Starting point is 00:25:36 It's not. Yeah, it's go time in America. Yeah. Yeah. Bedtime in China. Or someone just memorizes a bunch of different time zones for every corresponding time here and make everyone translate it. Bedtime in China. Or someone just memorizes like a bunch of different time zones. So like for every corresponding time here and make everyone like translate it. Bedtime in Rio, boys. Come on.
Starting point is 00:25:50 It's lunch in Belarus. Lunch in France. Let's get to bed. That's right. It's a siesta in Madrid. Let's get on there. Come on. All right.
Starting point is 00:25:58 It is 430 in Slovakia. Do whatever. I don't know. Do whatever. It's a brunch in Springfield, Illinois. That's the same time zone we're in. Pretty much here. That's
Starting point is 00:26:14 pouring water on a duck's back. Duck's back? Yeah, because it seems like it would get the duck wet. That seems smart. Does it not? But it doesn't, because they have down feathers. They repel water. That seems smart. Does it not? But it doesn't. Really? Because they have good, they have. That's their thing? The down feathers. They repel water.
Starting point is 00:26:27 Oh. It's like, yeah, on paper, that seemed like that would work, but that's like pouring water on a duck's back. Dude, that one's like,
Starting point is 00:26:33 that sounds almost real. Let's get that going. Pouring water on a duck's back. Yeah. It's just a waste. It's like Jim in the office when he's like, I thought,
Starting point is 00:26:42 I thought a group birthday party would be a good idea. Oh. Yeah, you can't do that. It's pouring water on a duck's back. Pouring water on a duck's like, I thought a group birthday party would be a good idea. Oh, yeah, he can't do that. It's pouring water on a duck's back. I like that. Fox in a hen house never gets bored.
Starting point is 00:26:55 You know, he's just got to be in there. He's going to be busy and he's going to be up to no good. So it's like, hey, just because you're somewhere where you're entertained doesn't mean you could be up to no good. Hey, Fox ever get bored in a hen house? entertained doesn't mean that's the right place to be. Hey, Fox ever get bored in a hidden house?
Starting point is 00:27:07 No. Oh, that's good. I love yours because they're so country. A lot of animals. These are things you say around a diner table. Mine are kind of country.
Starting point is 00:27:19 You're reading the newspaper like, yep, you see that Olivia Rodrigo's ad again. You know, Fox in the hen house never gets bored. Yep.
Starting point is 00:27:30 Man. Got another permission to do another animal one? Please, I love them. I tell you what, that's like chasing butterflies with a hammer. That's good.
Starting point is 00:27:41 Sure, the hammer's good for a lot of things. Yep. But not butterfly chasing. Butterflies. The wrong tool. Yeah, also, are you trying to kill the butterfly are you trying to catch it there was an uh overpopulation issue there was so i was trying to kill him strafford wouldn't do wouldn't do hammer though what what is that overpopulation of butterfly do again uh they're basically moths just with beautiful feathers beautiful moths yeah just beautiful moths hey
Starting point is 00:28:04 that's that's the one right there butterflies are just beautiful moths, just with beautiful feathers. Beautiful moths. Yeah, just beautiful moths. Hey. That's the one right there. Butterflies are just beautiful moths. Just found another one. All right, save this one for last. This one's a bit of a two-parter. Okay. So in our present day, we're going to get this one started.
Starting point is 00:28:19 And it's, you can't recycle garbage. Okay. Because this is kind of like, this is similar to like, a square is a rectangle, but a rectangle is not a square. Yes. You know, that is kind of like, this is similar to like, a square is a rectangle, but a rectangle is not a square. Yes. You know, that is kind of my inspiration for this one.
Starting point is 00:28:30 Okay. So I think we let this get in circulation about 40 years or so. Hey, can't recycle garbage. People are starting to use that. Yeah. And then we introduce an elongated one where it's like, rectangles ain't squares
Starting point is 00:28:41 and garbage ain't recycling. Okay. And that's the second phony phrase. Yes, very good. Where you just, hey, we agree, like just because the opposite of something is true doesn't make the inverse also true. Right.
Starting point is 00:28:52 Rectangles ain't squares and garbage ain't recycling. I like the, yeah, can't recycle garbage a lot. Because I was trying to think of one last night, actually, with recycling bins because- It was trash day. Yeah, as passionate as I am about recycling, the main reason I recycle is because there's twice as much room for us to put our garbage.
Starting point is 00:29:10 Yeah. You know what I mean? But not everything goes in the recycling bin, like you're saying. Garbage is... You can't recycle garbage. You can put recycling items in the garbage. Right.
Starting point is 00:29:18 But you can't recycle garbage. Dang, that's good. There's my funny phrases. It's like you can be a father and a son, but sons can't always be fathers. Yeah, it's like the mother rushes her son to the operating room and says, I can't operate on him.
Starting point is 00:29:37 This is my son. How is this possible? It's something like that. The doctor says I can't operate on him. It was a female doctor, you sexist. That's the answer to the riddle. You guys get it. Can't recycle garbage. It's like pouring water on ducks back.

But even more than that, literally all five of us had a meal together for the first time in so long. It's just like, like Catherine has just been struggling so much, man. And so it's just been like, yeah, just, it's just been a rough time. And so it was just sweet to like, I mean, we were kind of rushed at McLean's, but still it was fun to like eat nice, good stuff together. Uh, we had, you know, treated ourselves with coffee.

A vote for Brad is a vote for Timon right now. Because I was at like what before? How many? I mean, 17. Like in the teens. Yeah. I just unplugged my headphones.
Starting point is 00:47:36 Hey, unplug and hang out. That's what they say. What's up, guys? Because it rhymes so well. How is that image of Brad being two inches from the camera? I caught the tail end of it. I think there's something there. Okay, Tymon, you're in the lead, I guess.
Starting point is 00:47:52 So you can go first. Oh, man. Or you can choose the order. Oh, yeah, it's true. Oh, true. I was making him make one more decision. Tymon, you're making one more decision. I spent so much time late last night figuring out all my quick cues and my phony phrases,
Starting point is 00:48:05 just completely neglected the schmores. I did it. I did it while we were recording the last episode. I did it in between episodes. I was like, oh, just... This is going to be a good list. Okay. Okay, Jake first, then me, then Brad.
Starting point is 00:48:21 Oh, and the schmores is ways to save money. Pretty open-ended. I don't know what you guys have planned.'mores is ways to save money. Pretty open-ended. I don't know what you guys have planned. Yeah. Ways to save money. All right. So we got Jake, Ty, and Brad. Is that what you said?
Starting point is 00:48:34 Yeah. I got something written down. This is a tearing down bridge situation again. I just wrote this down an hour ago. What does this mean? Just use it for your first one. We'll just do it verbatim. I don't know what it means.
Starting point is 00:48:48 I'm just going to say it. We're going to discard it. Okay. Let me get it out of my system. Make your own guests. Guests. Like a guest to your home. Make your own guests.
Starting point is 00:48:59 Make your own guests. Why did I write that? What does that mean? Was it a typo you didn't catch? That seems like one of those, I am doing this while I'm doing something else, and I had something else pop into my head, and I wrote it down.
Starting point is 00:49:09 Oh, make your own granola, I think is what that is. Make your own guess. What was I saying? Were you doing it on your computer or your phone? Computer. Yeah. All right, that one's discarded.
Starting point is 00:49:19 Well, hey, so I can't use make your own guess? You can't use make your own guess, sorry. That's kind of BS. Well, I get to go first. Okay. All right. First pick, the s'mores of ways to save money. It's called leftover soup.
Starting point is 00:49:36 Okay. What you do is you have just a little bit of leftovers here, a little bit of leftovers here. You think, oh, man, that's not really enough for a whole meal. I guess we'll go out and spend money. Nope. Leftover soup. Get a little broth, heat it up, throw it in there.
Starting point is 00:49:52 Yeah, it's fine. Heat up some water, microwave it, whatever. You'll be fine. A little leftover soup. It'll probably taste good. You make it fun. You make it fun for the kids. A lot of mine are family themed.
Starting point is 00:50:01 These are themes for the whole family to get behind. Guys, it's leftover soup night. You know how, yeah, kids, you know how you guys struggled to eat any of these foods? Let's all put them all together in a brothy form and I'm sure you're going to love it now. Well, I didn't tell you. I go put on a cape because I'm a superhero.

Thank you. Leftover capes is a different business I have. Alright, leftover soup. First pick. That and make your own guest. Make your own guest.
Starting point is 00:50:35 Okay. I'm going to say the McDonald's app. Can we just say restaurant apps? Is that too broad? Okay. You can say can we just say restaurant apps? Is that too broad? Okay. You could say that. You could say that.
Starting point is 00:50:48 Restaurant apps. Restaurant apps. But McDonald's app is what I wrote down first. Dude, I was talking to my boy Sam Seavers the other day. He is a savant on the Taco Bell app. He's like, that would cost you $9.75 without the app. It cost me $6 with the app. I was like, dang, that's a pretty good savings.
Starting point is 00:51:04 Yeah. So apparently Taco Bell app's really good. that's a pretty good savings yeah so apparently taco bell app's really good that's fun yeah just really knowing your way around the restaurant apps yeah use the quick trip app yeah i remember when it first came out it was giving out a lot of oh like the 12 days of christmas thing yeah something free every day what do you what do they got on there these days um not that much no 50 cent small copy though, which is what I got. Okay. Oh yeah. You have it right there, don't you? I do.
Starting point is 00:51:28 I see you didn't eat all your granola balls and I gave you. By the end, by the end. Hey, saving them, saving them, saving money. That's right. Yeah. Just, uh, taking snacks and drinks from your podcast co-hosts. Okay. Um, you guys, you guys are going a little goofier than, and I have goofy, but just, I just put normal things down.
Starting point is 00:51:45 I said, uh, cooking at home. Don't, don't go out to restaurant. Just cook at home. I have that written down. I left over soup. I didn't like writing it, but I did write it down. Why didn't you like writing it? I just, it's too basic.
Starting point is 00:52:00 No, it's just like, he just didn't want to do it. Going out to eat is just like the best. Awesome. There is nothing like... The best. Awesome. It's the best. There's nothing like it. Food at home is better. Money-wise, but I love getting food places. Tommy, do you want to get lunch today at Main Street Roasters?
Starting point is 00:52:17 Dang it, I keep saying that. You didn't do it on purpose? I promise. I promise I didn't do that on purpose. I even paused. It probably sounded like I did that. I promise I didn't. At McLean's? Sure. No pressure. Could be fun. I'd get didn't do that on purpose. I even paused. It probably sounded like I did that. I promise I didn't. At McLean's? Sure.
Starting point is 00:52:27 No pressure. Could be fun. I get some work done there, too. Could be fun. Hey, hey. Going out to eat. I love it. Alright, next one. Tweak the thermostat. Tweak? It's amazing. You and my dad would get along nicely
Starting point is 00:52:46 you're hot open up a window you know you're cold uh take off the heat you say cold take off your shirt wait go get a cold shower then you're cool yeah yeah you don't know what cold is yeah take off your shirt get shirt. It's cold inside Godside. It's probably not cold. No, just the other night it was, I mean, we were just having like these fluctuations of heat and not, and all of a sudden it went from like 65 in our house to 75. And I was like, golly, it's hot in here. Turn on the AC in February. It was wild. So didn't save money, but if I wanted to, I could just kept it going and open up some windows. Wait, when you say tweak the thermostat, I think of going on a thermostat and changing
Starting point is 00:53:29 the temperature. You mean like, yeah, don't tweak the temperature. I think that's, I think what I'm getting is like, don't necessarily change it. Just like change something else. Change your environment. Own the thermostat. Don't let the thermostat own you. Wow.
Starting point is 00:53:41 Right. I rent my thermostat to avoid being owned by it. Yeah. Makes more sense if you don't touch it that often. Just a rent. Rachel and I still haven't turned on the AC. That's not surprising. We love the heat. Love that heat. What do you think it is right now? 74. Okay.
Starting point is 00:53:58 Not bad. Alright. I have not going into debt. You could. Just by definition, ways to save money. Have more. Make money. That's funny.
Starting point is 00:54:13 Okay, Tymon, care to elaborate on that? Yeah, just probably save money that way. If you don't spend money that you don't own. That's right. That's right. Okay. And the McDonald's app. That's right. Okay. And the McDonald's app. Yeah. All those things.
Starting point is 00:54:31 I got distracted. Next, I know we've looked at Timon's search history before. Let's look at Timon's bookmarks here in a little bit. Let's talk about bookmarks. I'm curious about a couple. Next, if you're in a really bad spot financially, maybe you would get to this position. I don't think I could ever do this and sleep well at night.
Starting point is 00:54:51 This is called going to a Mexican restaurant. They serve you chips and queso. They say, what can I get started for you guys? You say, I'll take a couple waters. You eat your chips and queso, and you leave. Oh, chips and salsa. What did I say? Queso.
Starting point is 00:55:03 Bad of me. Make your own guests. Make your own queso. That's probably what it was. Make your own queso. There's a U in there, second letter. Dine and dash chips and salsa. Sorry, I'm distracted by you thinking there's only
Starting point is 00:55:19 one letter that's the same between queso and queso. Yeah, those are pretty, fairly similar. Yeah, the U is in there. There's also an E as dine and dash. Yeah, chips and queso, dine and dash. Chips and salsa. Dang it. Sums up. Nature roasters.
Starting point is 00:55:34 Nature roasters. Yeah, that's a way to save money. Okay. You get a nice little appetizer for free, I think. I mean, you probably can't do it more than once, but you could do it once. Yeah, what would they think if, like... Oh, we're good. Thanks.
Starting point is 00:55:47 We're out. All right. You got another one? Next. Okay, I already said leftover soups. We're going to do DIY spa day. Okay. Just because you're not swimming in Benjamins doesn't mean you don't deserve to treat yourself from time to time so hey you got vegetables cut up your own little cucumbers throw them in the
Starting point is 00:56:12 freezer fridge i don't know how it works i've never done my own diy and then you put your own cucumbers on your eyes okay that'd be fun once again get the whole family involved yes we're doing massage trains we're having the kids be employees and help massage mom. Pain her fingernails. Pain her toenails. Mom gets treated. It's DIY Spa Day. That's fun.
Starting point is 00:56:33 And tonight, leftover soup. Mom's got cucumbers on her eyes, so she can't see it. Then she hears dad come out of the bedroom. Who's ready to get super tonight? He's got his cape on. so she can't see it and then she'll see her dad come out of the bedroom. Who's ready to get super tonight? He's got his cape on. Oh, and by the way, don't toss those cucumbers.
Starting point is 00:56:51 I need them for the soup. Yes, right. I used all of them. They'll be fine. The water's boiling so it'll get off the bed from your eyes. Okay. Tymon, I'm sure you had
Starting point is 00:57:00 those things on your list, but go ahead. Sorry if I took them. Yeah, my bad. Okay. Get stuff on eBay. Get stuff on eBay. Get stuff on eBay. Secondhand.
Starting point is 00:57:07 Yeah. There's some stuff that's just fine used and way cheaper. That's a good word. Okay. Mine aren't that fun. What's the last thing you bought off eBay? Can you remember? Or bought secondhand?
Starting point is 00:57:17 A vintage camera lens. Ooh, fun. Like $60. There's like old, like the bokeh, the blurry background looks like nice and swirly. Shooting with the cap on, though. Ah, darn. Maybe. Does anybody on eBay these days actually bid, or is it always buy it now?
Starting point is 00:57:31 I always filter to just buy it now. Oh, really? I don't want to wait to bid, and also I feel like it'll just shoot up to a really high price. If you're a Gen Z, why wait wait on anything just get it over with just i'm done with this i want it oh i got lectured by my dad like uh trying to like i wanted like a black binder for like something some school thing went to amazon i was like i'll just get it on amazon like it'll get here tomorrow yeah and he's like oh no i just sometime when i'm in town i'll just like go to a store and get i'm like why why this is what amazon specializes in is like getting things to like this random thing you need like fast and you know exactly what you're getting exactly like you
Starting point is 00:58:14 guys go to the store look through so many options find the cheapest and fastest one and he's like but but that he i think he was just like but then they're just making like this extra trip right out of the way on their route like they're They're like they have to come to our house like out of the way of their already established. I'm like This is what they advertise. It's tough. Yeah, but also I kind of see both sides I think he was like I think My sister got into like Anna. She's like Amazon is the biggest company. You're not costing them I mean, it's like I don't know because he was kind of
Starting point is 00:58:45 like well there's like small businesses like they don't he's thinking like maybe like a five dollar expense he's like for i kind of see his point like yeah they're going so out of the way yeah for this thing they're not making money because yeah if amazon did yeah that a million times if everyone ordered only a binder yeah they would have to charge way more for everything but i'm just thinking, this huge company, that can't be a big deal. He's like, don't order on Amazon. I'll go to Walmart and buy it.
Starting point is 00:59:11 That's what he was saying. I'm like, that's not better though, I feel like. Yeah, that's a tough... It's interesting. Quick fun fact, Anna Imch always comes up to me on Facebook as a suggested friend. It's like, Anna Imch, ad friend? Huh? Interesting. Always. Always an option. It's her laying down in, ad friend. Interesting. Always, always an option. It's her like laying down in a field.
Starting point is 00:59:27 Very familiar with her profile picture. Smelling horses. That's an old picture. I took that picture. Wow. Boca? Yeah, I was going to say. Old school lens?
Starting point is 00:59:36 Boca? All right, guys. My last two. I'm going to say drinking water. You go to a restaurant or anywhere, drink water. Water, please. What would you like to drink? A beer for $17?
Starting point is 00:59:49 No, thanks. I'll have a water. Also, when you drink water, you're more full, so you don't eat as much. Save money that way. You can also argue that with soda or something, too. You drink a lot of soda. Appetite suppressant. Is it?
Starting point is 01:00:01 Oh, yeah. Caffeine is. Really? Yeah. Oh, man. You ever had coffee and then like, I don't need to eat for hours. Yeah, I've had coffee. A lot of people have coffee for their breakfast. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:00:13 But water. Hey, hey. Sorry, not my pick. Also water. You drink water, you're healthier. Therefore, you're saving money on medical bills. Good word. Also water. You have better phlegm because of water you're saving money on medical bills. Good word. Also water. You, you have better, you have better phlegm because they're water.
Starting point is 01:00:29 So you don't get sick as much. So then therefore you're able to work more. Also money. Where do people get baptized? Water. Yeah. Yeah. It's probably the final point.
Starting point is 01:00:37 So how much money can you save when you get baptized? Plenty. 90%. So drinking water. And then my last one, I'm going to say I'm in between a few here. Um, I'm going to say, get your coffee at home for Main Street Roasters, brew your coffee home.

That my friend is sipping up some savings. That my friend is drinking down some dollars. Brew your coffee at home from Main Street Roasters. Your turn, your turn, your turn. That, my friend, is brewing some bucks back into your wallet. That's exactly what I was going to say. Oh, really? That, my friends, is nailing, tamping. There we go. Tamping.

Because... Out of all the... like a bulk box. Kidding. A whole bunch. Why microwave popcorn? Because it's so filling. Oh,

Starting point is 01:04:09 I don't think anything else is cheaper in bulk. Costco takes a loss in almost everything except for the microwave popcorn section. That's where they, yeah. Vice versa, yeah. Yeah, I had it backwards, whatever. You're struggling. I don't know what's going on.

Starting point is 01:06:54 I, yeah, I talked to Catherine the other day. I was like, I thinking this was like, I'm so proud of myself. I was like, I got gas the other day and I didn't buy anything from quick trip.
Starting point is 01:07:02 She's like, I never buy anything. I was like, I was like, yeah, but you don't understand. I was at quick trip and I didn't buy anything from quick trip. She's like, I never buy anything for quick trip. So I got gas. I was like, I was like, yeah, but you don't understand.
Starting point is 01:07:07 I was at quick trip and I didn't go inside. There's certain things in life. When you don't do something, you feel like you deserve a Nobel peace prize. I remember going to a concert and this is like 2015 and I didn't Snapchat it. I didn't record it. I just sat there and looked at it. I was like,
Starting point is 01:07:21 I give me a medal. Give me a time man of the year. I just consumed it with my eyes. I just watched, I give me a medal. Give me a time man of the year. I just consumed it with my eyes. I just watched. Yeah. Let myself watch. That's good. That should have really been on my actual list because but yeah, because it's like you're getting gas. There's no reason actually unless you need something.
Starting point is 01:07:35 Yeah, I have two that mean the same thing, but they're Brad uses. I said making your own meals and I said not going out to eat. So it's kind of the same thing. It's a fact. Ranchers and then buy stuff by off brand stuff. Yeah. Bulk or no? baking your own meals. And I said, not going out to eat. So it's kind of the same thing. Ipso facto. Good ranchers. And then buy stuff, buy off-brand stuff. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:07:49 Bulk or no? Just popcorn. No, the popcorn is what you buy in bulk. Everything else is off-brand. I'm a fan of like anything you need, anything you know you're going to need eventually, paper towels,
Starting point is 01:07:59 toilet paper, buy them in bulk. Yeah. Yeah. Get them as cheap as possible. Store them up. You got, you got attics if you need to. Like there's plenty of storage in your house that you're not using
Starting point is 01:08:07 toilet paper is one thing you should buy a good brand of i was gonna say there's certain things that i want the high quality but i think with clothing you could definitely find like off-brand alternatives there's so much markup amazon dupes is what the ladies call them dupes um what about uh pickleball paddles yeah you don't need to be spending hundreds of dollars on a pickleball Dupes is what the ladies call them. Dupes. What about... Pickleball paddles? Yeah. You don't need to be spending hundreds of dollars on a pickleball paddle. Because they make them basically in all the same three places in America.
Starting point is 01:08:32 Or in China. Yeah. It's pickleball paddle time in China. It's 002 in China. How about thrift stores? Promo code generators? Renting from the library.

So sometimes it is a little egg chicken version. Like sometimes it's like the baby wants it, but the mom's having a hard time. So that's a big thing.

Starting point is 01:12:35 Midnight snack time? Hey, it's dinner in China. And a kid, a little boy is walking next to me in the airport, and he's just got YouTube blaring full volume out of his phone. This boy's like probably six years old and that's how he's listening to music. And what song is he playing at 6 a.m.? Hot in Here by Nelly. And for some reason I was like,
Starting point is 01:12:56 I think Brad would just love this. This little boy is just blaring Hot in Here at 6 a.m. Out of no headphones. I have mixed feelings on it because I don't know if a little kid should be listening to that song. No, it wasn't great for the kid, but I was like, that's kind of interesting. But man, do I think I like Nelly more than the average person. I know you like Nelly.
Starting point is 01:13:13 Oh, man. I think he's like Mount Rushmore for me. I love... We would like to see him on the... His band-aid and everything.

I don't know what technically, that might be redwood. I'm not sure. When me and your dad went driving to go put out that fire last weekend,
Starting point is 01:24:26 he was telling me all about certain kind of oaks are in this tree that are like protected. I can't remember the whole story now, but yeah. Wait, let's talk about putting out a fire. Oh, yeah. Rachel could maybe speak more about this. I think it's somewhat common to burn CRP. CRP, if you remember, is the type of farmer I wanted to become
Starting point is 01:24:46 where it's the government pays you not to farm your land. You just burn your fields. And so you burn your fields to keep it healthy in some way. Nitrogen's probably involved. Anyway, what we looked like we saw, it was like black smoke. It was not the typical smoke that crops should be burning at. And so we were like,
Starting point is 01:25:02 let's go look into this. Looked into it. We were ready to put out fire. What does he bring with him when he's ready to put out a fire? Yeah. Like, what does he have? Like, what's his... We were just going to smother it.
Starting point is 01:25:16 Yeah. Just a big old blanket. Yeah, just drop, stop, drop, and roll all over the multiple acre field. Seriously, though. We didn't bring anything. We just went to go check on it. We were just investigating. Yeah, yeah. We were like, let's go see if this is actually a problem. Oh, though, we didn't bring anything. We just went to go check on it.
Starting point is 01:25:26 Yeah. Yeah. We were like, let's go see if this is actually a problem. Okay. Okay. Yeah. Gotcha. Fun. Thanks, Rachel, for answering. Where'd you guys get those questions? I got some of mine from the ghosties on Instagram live. It's a new feature they're doing. Honestly, just a lot of most
Starting point is 01:25:42 of them just off the dome. Have fun. Rachel and I just off the dome. Wow. Have fun. Rachel and I went live while running our mile. Okay. I think I probably won't do that anymore. It was hard to keep the camera steady, and I was just breathing hard. I can't read any of the comments. I tried to hold it steady while I was holding it.
Starting point is 01:25:57 I'd hold my arm steady, and my arm got so tired. Yeah. Now we know. You're not meant to run with your arm in one place. Yeah. I got my font small. It's just hard to read. Yeah. Now we know. You're not meant to run with your arm in one place. Yeah. I got my font small. It's just hard to read. Yeah. Sometimes it's like, can you still go live
Starting point is 01:26:11 even if you don't interact? Just let them watch you. You and Rachel talk. Just let them watch. I don't even communicate back. Anyway. Fun so. Thanks, Rachel Rachel for participating see you later

Starting point is 01:26:42 Cameron Micolac, Jake, Brad and timing. Cameron here. It's been great to listen to the pod and hear about your lives. I became a ghosty from a combo of jean shorts and a friend telling me about the ghost runners pod.
Starting point is 01:26:54 And I thought this would be a good time to leave a review. He left the review on the YouTube, um, YouTubes. So yesterday, March 2nd, my girlfriend surprised me with tickets to see trade Kennedy grew up to her in Redding,
Starting point is 01:27:04 Pennsylvania. And I got to see Jake perform, which was great. For starters, walking to the place, I followed a group of Mennonite women into the arena. Didn't know that was Trey's audience. Thanks for saying arena. It was not. Oh, no. I then walked in and saw Isaac stuck at the merch table.
Starting point is 01:27:19 Also stuck there. Just planted there. Cornered. It's cool to meet someone featured on the pod from your friend circle honestly isaac was such a cool guy and it was nice talking to him about friday pickleball in life the comedy special was great the opener lucas was solid jake was hilarious and traded not disappoint during the performances i sat in a row with roughly 25 people of the 25 people 22 are white moms and then it was my girlfriend and me i know they're moms
Starting point is 01:27:43 those those women are definitely moms. Uh, but the one person, but one other person was a 50 year old white man who came by himself. He sat through Lucas and Jake, but left halfway through Trey leaving behind multiple cans of Miller light. Interestingly, he did not laugh one singular time all night. Is this normal? I would look over here and there, but not even a smirk of enjoyment, psycho behavior. After the show, I had even a smirk of enjoyment, psycho behavior. After the show, I had the pleasure of briefly meeting you,
Starting point is 01:28:08 Jake, with some friends from church, fun stuff. I live South of Reading. So I had to drive. He's talking about Amish crazy things. And then he said, all in all,
Starting point is 01:28:17 I had a great time seeing Jake and Trey perform, hoping I will get to meet Brayden in time. And someday, thanks for all the laughs and stories you all provide. Praise God and love you guys. That's awesome. I'll tell you, a lot of ghosties up northeast. We should go to Pennsylvania and do something.
Starting point is 01:28:32 What was that guy's name? Cameron. Oh, yeah. Remember meeting you. Cool dude. That's funny about the guy that just sat there the whole time. Yeah. Man, I'd like to think, surely I made him laugh at least once.
Starting point is 01:28:42 There's no way he didn't laugh at least once. I know. There's no way. Some of laugh at least once. I know. There's no way. Some of the crowd work, he had to have. I always take solace in the fact that I really enjoy things that I don't laugh out loud at sometimes. You know what I mean? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:28:54 Like, maybe people have really enjoyed this episode, but they didn't laugh out loud. Yeah, I told Lucas after one of his sets this weekend, I was like, hey, I was listening to it. Like, I want you to know. I smiled the whole time. I was excited listening to it. It just really made me happy. It was great. Smiling?
Starting point is 01:29:12 Can't hear it. That's a phony phrase. Can't hear a smile. But people still enjoy it. You can still hear a smile with your headphones. No, the one we said first was better. Listen to my smile. You can kind of hear my lips moving. Can't kind of hear it.
Starting point is 01:29:32 There it is. Yeah. So when he said talk about Friday or to Isaac about Friday pickleball, Isaac at the writing show said he got his first legitimate like completely organic, like someone recognized him on friday pickleball like not like oh i know you from ghost runners and isaac and yeah it happened to be a
Starting point is 01:29:50 scenario where this woman said she i guess she's at the merch table somehow with her friend she's like just chatting up with isaac like i don't even know my friends love trey i don't even recognize her i feel like i've never seen trey before but i'm just coming along to be a good sport and so anyway i'm excited to see the show tonight, whatever. And as she gets talking, she's like, why do you look familiar? Like, do you make videos? And I was like, I do a little bit. I can make pickle videos. She's like, that's why you look familiar. No way. So she didn't know me, didn't know Trey, didn't know anything, but recognized I, you know, purely alone from the pickle videos. That's kind of fun. I don't think it's ever happened before. That's awesome.
Starting point is 01:30:22 It's starting. Kind of fun. That's cool. Just, you know, sharks can't climb trees. That's right. All right. This has been Wednesday episode. Let's get out of here. It is sundown in Beijing. Let's go have lunch at Macy's Roasters.
