Starting point is 00:00:00 I had a flight get delayed five and a half hours last week, but if I hadn't spent all that time in the airport, I would not have overheard one of my new favorite conspiracy theories. This is coming from a guy sitting directly behind me, talking through his AirPods, and you'll never guess it, talking way too loud. Uh-oh. Oh, I would have never thought a guy, you know, in his 60s
Starting point is 00:00:20 would be talking way too loud with Bluetooth headphones, but he was. And he said, and I quote, nah, you don't want to buy a Roomba because it learns your walls and uploads your blueprint for criminals to break in. Oh, wow. I wrote it down verbatim because I didn't want to screw it up. The Roomba.
Starting point is 00:00:38 It learns your walls and uploads your blueprint for criminals to break in. Wow. Because without the walls, that's the hardest thing for criminals to break in. Wow. Because without the walls, that's the hardest thing for criminals to figure out. Because criminals... I got to get through this window, but what if there's a wall right in my face
Starting point is 00:00:55 right when I get in? All the Roomba knows is where your steps are. Yeah. Guess what? Zillow.com can tell you a lot more about... You can figure out a lot more than that, brother. You can look at the type of lock they have on Zillow.com can tell you a lot more. You can figure out a lot more than that, brother. You could look at the type of lock they have on Zillow. I mean, you could see like, oh, there's no deadbolt on this like back basement door. But if you can hack into the Roomba, well,
Starting point is 00:01:15 it sounds like you may not need to hack. The Roomba is doing most of the work. The Roomba is selling it to the burglars. Like they're in cahoots. And where do you even buy, where do you buy burglar blueprints from? Gosh, I love that. I love the idea of him just like using a skeleton key or like picking a lock of the front door, you know, classic we're in. And then he opens up the door and he's just surrounded by three walls.
Starting point is 00:01:38 He's like, that's why you shouldn't be pay for room, but premium. Gosh dang it. Uh, uh, oh, ooh, I, ooh, I think this tight beat means that it's going down
Starting point is 00:01:47 with some random thoughts in white. Me too, Midwest best friends eating fast food on repeat. So come along, let's have some fun and go ahead, get on your feet because this is Ghost Rubs Podcast. Everybody morning, we're taking round Ghost Rubs Podcast.
Starting point is 00:02:10 Ghost Rubs Podcast. That's wild. Yeah, that was great. I was like, this makes it all worth it. Another thing that happened, I think you'll find this enjoyable, is I was in line because I was like, I've waited five hours, and I'm still, and I was like Southwest C-27. I was like, I've waited this long. You know what? I'm paying, uh, and I was like Southwest C 27. It's like, I waited this long. You know, I'm paying for a upgrade. Yeah. I'm not getting delayed and sitting metal. Yeah. Not today.
Starting point is 00:02:36 And so I'm waiting in line and, uh, it's a long line cause everyone's, you know, dealing with delays. So I'm kind of excited to get up there. I'm like, Hey, I got an easy one for you. That's even what I said. But before I get up there, you're like trying to be like the fun guy. Like's a fun one. I don't have anything to complain about. Just a simple task. I think I could have done it for my app now that I'm up here, actually. Whoopsie-daisy. But the woman in front of me is getting real hasty, and he's trying to offer her a new flight and yada-yada.
Starting point is 00:02:59 And she was trying to negotiate with him. She's like, I'll tell you what. It's her and her husband. I will take the new flight if you can get us seats together. And he goes, ma'am, Southwest is open seating. She's like, all right, I'll take the new flight. Okay, yeah. I have no more cards to play.
Starting point is 00:03:16 Whoopsie-daisy. That's amazing. Yeah, that was great. Like, her only leg to stand on. There was nothing there. Yeah, I like the idea of, like, yeah, she just doesn't know how it works. Like, what other situations could you do that on? Let's see.
Starting point is 00:03:30 I will take your chicken sandwich meal, but only if I can get a drink. It's like, yeah. I will go to the basketball game, but if it's tied at the end, you have to keep playing. They can't stop it until one team wins. That's my, Those are my terms. I'll come eat your casserole,
Starting point is 00:03:52 but it's not staying in me forever. You have to find a way for me to poop it out. I gotta figure out a way to dispose of this thing one way or the other. Yeah, that's good. Hyman, you go. I haven't been thinking of any. That's a great response. That's good. How many you got? I haven't been thinking of any. That's a great response.
Starting point is 00:04:09 That's great. I don't know what I'm going to say, but I'm going to say it in this cadence, so it's going to be funny. I asked for a job doing the video side. I'm not going to make the jokes. You hired me for my fingers? Not my jokes. Not my mouth.
Starting point is 00:04:27 What are we even? What? Great start. Going to be a good episode. Yeah, man. So you were delayed five and a half hours. I think it was all said and done. Yeah, delayed five hours or something.
Starting point is 00:04:39 This is to leave Kid to City. So this is... Oh, you were in town. Yeah. So part of it was kind of nice. Woke up at 545 and see the flight's delayed. Well, I shouldn't say nice because then you go into hectic panic mode. Like, all right, what are, you know, problem solving? What are options we have? What options
Starting point is 00:04:54 do we have at Southwest? We're on Delta, you know, all this stuff. How do we get to New York City? And well, the plan... So this is the problem is even our original flight just got us to Philadelphia and then we were taking a two-hour train to Wilmington, Delaware. Ah, you got to take the bus next time. It's not an easy... You got to go see a URB. You got to go Airbus. Okay.
Starting point is 00:05:13 So then it becomes like, we have so many options because there's not really a Wilmington airport. So it's like, we could fly to Boston. We could fly to New York City. Well, there's multiple New York City airports. We could fly to Philadelphia. We fly to DC. Well, DC has two airports. So it's me, Isaac to Philadelphia. We could fly to D.C. Well, D.C. has two airports.
Starting point is 00:05:26 So it's me, Isaac, and Trey all just like at six in the morning, like texting, like who's got ideas. Okay. Eventually. Why at 545 do they already know it's going to be delayed five hours? Well, I don't know if you remember last Wednesday morning, but we had like a six hour long thunderstorm. Basically, it was when it stormed all morning long here. I don't remember that very well,
Starting point is 00:05:47 but I mean, I do. You kind of slurred your word. I don't remember. I tell you what, man, I spent one of your gone daddy parts. So anytime you're gone,
Starting point is 00:05:58 I'm like, I don't know what day is what I'm waking up about one, 2 PM. So I'm right. Instant. Yeah. Help me sleep. So, okay. So it was, 2 p.m., so I probably missed it. Yeah. Help me sleep. Okay, so it was just bad storms.
Starting point is 00:06:08 It was just the storms here locally. Just no planes were leaving. So that's why it was delayed. Dude, my friend who's a weatherman is bringing up that it's going to be pretty bad the next couple days. And we're supposed to be flying into Gulf Shores. We're driving, baby. Oh! What an adventure, dude. We're driving, baby. Oh! What an adventure, dude.
Starting point is 00:06:26 Me, you, Todd. Oh. Me. Eyes. Oh, no. Late. Rachel. No.
Starting point is 00:06:33 No. Catherine. Oh. Me, you. Oh. No. Jensen could meet us. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:41 Jensen's a maybe. Jensen's a maybe. Yeah, we could if need be. Yeah. But that would add some stress. I tell you what. So I don if need be yeah but that would add some stress i tell you i don't need b i don't want b i don't want b but i i can't if need be that's a fun thing to start saying like i can't i can't have have b but i don't want b no worries either way b but I'd prefer not be. Can't even eat beef. Oh, man. Okay, so you were delayed big time. Yeah, and part of it, so Isaac, unfortunately, like, how did it go? I think he, like, didn't see our text.
Starting point is 00:07:14 So he got halfway here when he learned that we were delayed. So he's like, well, I'm going to still drive up anyway. This solves a mystery. Every once in a while, there's neighbor mysteries. Yeah, last week was the case of the mysterious suspenders, man. I was like, uh, so I look out my window, there's Isaac's truck and then there's both yours and Rachel's car. I think, uh, it's not well documented, but I think you guys like your car more than Rachel's correct. And so I was like, interesting. I guess they took an Uber to the airport for whatever reason. Rachel wants to keep Jake's car. Why, why'd they do that? I'm developing some astigmatism.
Starting point is 00:07:48 I like to drive in the rain. Yeah, exactly. Like it's, it's a little bit worried. Yeah. Worrisome in the rain. And so I was like, interesting. I wonder why this time, cause like Jake's gone a lot and he brings his car all the time. Then I saw in a couple hours later or cars gone. Yeah. Tesla it's ala tesla's gone it's the cheap one guys it's like it's like crap i mean oh i don't even have heated seats in the back that's a funny uh character we could do like the guy who just like downplays maybe yeah it's like i'm the one trying to downplay you know a real thing like guys you know come see my new house it's nothing it's like i'm the one trying to downplay you know a real thing like guys you
Starting point is 00:08:25 know come see my new house it's nothing it's nothing and then you come in this place sucks like it is not familiar with how these like jokes go right like hey come on yeah you don't understand i could say it but uh you can't don't say it like that that's kind of funny solve that mystery for me yeah so isaac evici just like uh he took a nap on our couch we all kind of woke up together around eight, 9 a.m. again. And then Rachel made us acai bowls. We just hung out for a little bit. And then we got to the airport and then got delayed another hour or two.
Starting point is 00:08:53 Saw Josie Truitt. Oh, fun. She's going to my old church, I think. Is she? I think so. Need be? She won't be or what? She has be.
Starting point is 00:09:05 Presby. Presbyterian. It's actually, I'm trying to think. Presby. Presby. No. Presby. But it was kind of a fun time because this is, it's very important for Trey to get there.
Starting point is 00:09:18 Because at this point in the delay, it's like Isaac and I, I mean, we may get there. We may not. Trey was smart enough. He booked two flights. So he's got options. And, you know, Trey doesn't tell us this, but I'm familiar enough with the business to kind of know like it's very important
Starting point is 00:09:33 that Trey gets there. He's the headliner. He's the one that sells tickets. You know, it's pretty understandable like why he should be. Yeah, like I don't think I or Isaac need to be there. But like people would be like bummed if you're gone. Yes.
Starting point is 00:09:46 Bummed if they didn't have merch as quickly. They would say, I want my money back if Trey Kennedy's not there. Yeah, yeah. It's a problem for a lot of different people if Trey's there.
Starting point is 00:09:56 So what happens is Isaac and I become soldiers for Trey. It felt like I was texting. So we're all texting because we're in different parts of the airport. And I said, this feels like the season finale of The Amazing Race because we're all like doing whatever it takes. So Trey, it felt like I was texting. So we're all texting because we're in different parts of the airport. And I said, this feels like the season finale of The Amazing Race because we're all like doing whatever it takes.
Starting point is 00:10:08 So Trey's got like a United flight that's boarding soon and also our Southwest flight that says it's boarding soon. But we can't trust it. Like we don't know. It's still storming. And so just a lot of texting and a lot of like checking flightaware.com. Okay. I don't know about that.
Starting point is 00:10:24 Just like these different websites. Trey was like, I'm kind of geeking out. I've been kind of like enjoying flightaware.com. Okay, I don't know about that. Just like these different websites. Trey was like, I'm kind of geeking out. I've been kind of like enjoying getting into planes today. Like I think I was like, I might be on the spectrum. I'm like loving planes today. I just watch them fly out of here all day. Yeah. I'm like starting to notice different kinds of planes
Starting point is 00:10:38 that I'm just like obsessed with. He's like, our one from LA lands at 1245. So will you guys tell me if you see that plane land? You know, we're like doing all this stuff. And anyway, it was fun. So yeah, we're just all texting trying to help him make the right decision. Isaac kind of like time. And also just now it's just like, I think you should do this, but I really don't want to be held responsible. So I don't forget. I said anything that would be a tough thing to be like, here's what I mean. It looks like the lines. It looks like they're boarding. They haven't boarded for Cleveland yet out of the gate we're going to,
Starting point is 00:11:05 so I think you have time, but dude, I don't want to be responsible, so you hired me to sell merch, so I don't think I should make these decisions. And I don't even have to do that if you don't want me to. I'll just go home. Did you also consequently look at the weather
Starting point is 00:11:17 in the connecting cities? Yeah, everything was fine. Kansas City was just the problem. Really? It's me. Hi. I'm the problem. It's Kansas City i'm the problem it's kc yeah taylor swift time and she's secular yeah yeah welcome to the tortured podcast club
Starting point is 00:11:34 did i nail that you know but we discussed we were going to call our little podcast yeah the tortured podcasters department department yeah i was at McLean's the other day, and there was some new blend, and it was like the Tortured Coffee, or Tortured something, and I was like, cool. I don't know. I'll try it.
Starting point is 00:11:54 I don't know. Don't torture me. It was classic, like, Brad is a dad who doesn't know what's going on, because then later that day, I saw, oh, that's what it is. Oh, okay. Okay, Fortnite, Fortnite.
Starting point is 00:12:04 Post Malone, got it. Now that I think about it, I think your new album is great, like coffee shop music. Is it? Thoughts, Tymon? I haven't listened to it. Oh, yeah, second. But I heard it's not a lot of like pop hits. Yeah, it's not like top 40 music.
Starting point is 00:12:19 Yeah. Which if you're a shallow, like I'm a fan. I like music like Mouse in the House and stuff like that, so I wanted a big top 40 song. Can you imagine if Taylor Swift someday... We get so big and Taylor gets so small that she's covering Mouse in the House? I can imagine it, yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:36 That'd be amazing. I see that happening. Her and Travis? Once she gets small enough. Once she declines in popularity enough. Once she shrinks. Honey, I shrunk the swifts anyway um what's up with you oh um i've been working on woodworking for i've been working on the wood shop chop all the time shakes Oh, the thunderstorm long.
Starting point is 00:13:06 Yeah, Tymon's friend. Kelly's? Yeah. Nice. Dude, is it like a – how many kids do they – they have a big family? Yeah. I think it's just like a requirement. Like if Tymon's friends with somebody, they have to have a big family. And so like this table is beyond big.
Starting point is 00:13:21 What's – like it's exceedingly large. That doesn't surprise me at all. Yeah, they just like – not like not only they have a big family but they just always have people at their house yeah they really like to eat that doesn't surprise these people they know where casseroles get out um so i mean it's literally like the biggest table i've ever built that's awesome like i had to like call multiple lumber companies to find wood long enough for this table. Wow. Yeah. You just got to call them, hey, what's your longest wood?
Starting point is 00:13:48 Yeah. Because they wanted a specific style. And I was like, you got 14-foot maple? And they're like, no one ever asked for 14-foot maple. What are you, building an ark? I'm like, I don't know. So yeah, anyway. 14 foot does seem like a ton.
Starting point is 00:14:03 I mean, that's how long the table is? 14 feet? Dude, yeah. You can't build that in your shop. You have to wait for a ton. I mean, that's how long the table is? 14 feet? Dude, yeah. You can't build that in your shop. You have to wait for clear skies to build this, don't you? Dude, that's one of my wins of the week is like the weather has coordinated with me perfectly. It would fit in my shop.
Starting point is 00:14:15 My shop's probably 20 feet deep. You're becoming like a farmer. We're like, you can only do your business if the weather permits. Like I bet eight times a day I've asked S-i-r-i if it's going to rain syria yeah oh cool s-i-r-i syria yeah just he gets he gets this little joke just a little joke hey time we're just joking around but i've asked i've so many times i'm just like hey is it gonna rain because i'm just so i don't i don't trust the weather app from hour to hour.
Starting point is 00:14:45 See, I wouldn't trust SIRI. What I trust is looking at the radar. I like to be my own meteorologist. And then I have a friend who's a weatherman. And so I'm like, oh, bringing this up again. We get it. Hey, man, we get it. You rub shoulders with really cool people.
Starting point is 00:14:57 Got it. Gosh. Anyway, but yeah, it's been the perfect weather to where I've literally kept the tabletop outside under a tarp like overnight because it hasn't been dewy it hasn't been hot enough to be dewy hasn't been cold enough to like be dangerous it's just been like perfect like 55 60 degrees at night where do you want the dewy decimal system to keep wood outside i don't know but i just i could just tell like at night at night because i've been working on it late in the night i'm like it's not dewy it's like 60 degrees out here, not dewy. So I just, I'm like, I'm fine without the dew. Uh, it sprinkled yesterday. I had to talk about
Starting point is 00:15:33 dews, baby. We're talking dews, baby. Um, I mean, it is, it's probably going to hold 20 plus people. I mean, it's just huge and very heavy. And I've been monstering it around by myself, which is no fun. Yeah. But it's one of those things where you just like, like, I don't really know the, um, science behind it too much, but I pretend like I do with Hattie for like homeschool purposes. I'm like, Hattie, this is, yeah, this is the beauty of wheels. And so I like kind of put it on one side and like shimmy it around and stuff. And, um, I asked Scott to come over and, uh, help me. He was not in the area. So he's like, can't do it, Poppy. So I just poppied it myself. I always ask Rachel. She works out all the time. Yeah. I was going to have Catherine Rachel on one side,
Starting point is 00:16:18 me on the other. And then I figured out a way to just shimmy it. You're like the ancient Egyptians. It's like, it doesn't exactly like the ancient. Yeah. People will wonder how you did what you did with this long, huge table. Yeah. Like, did he would see him do it? No, I never saw. How did he, I mean, it doesn't make sense. Yeah. How did he do it? I took it to this guy, Lester. We talked about Lester on the podcast before to help me sand it down. He's got this massive industrial sander. First of all, Lester was not happy to see me with this thing. He was like, he was, he was like, he's like the nicest guy ever. And he was not in a good mood, moving this thing around for me. I'm like, I'm sorry. What'd he say? Nothing. He just,
Starting point is 00:16:51 you could just, I just know him well enough to be like, he does not like that. I'm doing this to him. I award them anyway. And we put it back in the, I had to rent a trailer to get this thing around. And he's like, how are you going to get that thing out of the trailer? And just kind of like happy-go-lucky. I'm like, I'll figure it out. He's like, you need to have somebody else do that with you. You're going to hurt your back. You're going to regret this. And it was one of those things where I was like, I'm feeling uncomfortable right now, but I'm going to, oh, okay. Oh yeah, for sure. I was going to get somebody to help. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You'll be around, right? Lesty. He's like, you need to have somebody help me. But anyway, it's been really fun working with my hands. I haven't been doing much woodworking lately.
Starting point is 00:17:29 Um, and yeah, I mean, my hands are sore. Like I have like cuts on them, but it just feels good to be outside. It's been a beautiful day. You stopped playing guitar. You lost your callousy. Yeah. Um, kids have been outside with me, which is like, that's probably the best part about it. It's just like, I get to see them a lot more. And so I've been listening to a lot of Forrest Frank, just dancing around. I bet if someone drove by, they'd be like,
Starting point is 00:17:51 that guy's possessed. Like, I just like, like I was, I'm literally just like grooving around my driveway. Golden's a good one. That's so good, but that's a good one.
Starting point is 00:17:59 Yeah. I haven't listened to that one yet. Oh, I love it. Do you love the, I love the trumpets in it. Who does? I love trumpets it's
Starting point is 00:18:05 it's a nice vibe i like brass and pretty much anything really the zoo okay new york music i love some like french horns like toady fry horns yeah okay horns or not no no no um sorry um yeah anyway so yeah that's been the main thing is just uh doing a lot of woodworking trying to get that done before we go to gulf shores so i'm on my last little bit of that yeah when you're listening to this we're in gulf shores now yeah follow along on instagram if you want to feel sad about not being there totally i'd say yeah do that and then next week you'll hear our episodes um with all of our fans in the house oh Instagram. If you want to feel sad about not being there. Totally. I'd say that. Yeah. Do that. And then next week you'll hear our episodes, um, with all of our fans in the house. I'm excited at the
Starting point is 00:18:50 Pearl. I think I would like to, uh, like just what about this for a segment with them? We can, we can workshop it right now. Uh, just have them come up and say, here's what I want to talk about. Like any subject, like what, what if, what if they're really passionate about some subject that we don't know? And we can just ask them questions like, like Brandon Faulkner is a big computer guy. And like, what if he just wants to talk computers with us? We'll just talk to anybody about anything. You know what I mean? Like just come up, you get a mic and you were like, I would like to talk about this today. And it's like, okay, great. Let's talk about it. Uh, and we just ask him questions and we just get into it. It's kind of fun. It's like those things you see at college campuses. They set okay, great. Let's talk about it. And we just ask them questions and we just get into it. It's kind of funny.
Starting point is 00:19:25 It's like those things you see at college campuses. They set up a table. It's like, debate me on anything or whatever. Yeah, prove me wrong. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, it's like we set up a table that says, I'll ask you questions about whatever you're into.
Starting point is 00:19:34 Yeah, we'll figure out a way to say it. We'll make it fun. Yeah, I like that. Okay. That's neato. So if you're listening to this on the vacation or- Come hang out with us. Or session two.
Starting point is 00:19:44 Yeah, or session two. Just let us know what you think. Have some things in mind. I'm excited about that. I'm also a little bit I don't know if guilty is the right feeling guilty, but I just feel bad for leaving Catherine and the kids. I bet. Henry's still not being the easiest baby
Starting point is 00:20:01 and so there have been a few nights where it's just been tough for us. Catherine's mom's coming up. My parents are helping out. That's really nice. We got some plans. I'm very pumped about it, and I'm going to listen to Golden by Surfaces a lot. A lot. A bunch.
Starting point is 00:20:17 That's fun. Alright, I'm trying to decide. I'm going to tell this story quickly. I thought this might need to be a Diomedes story where we have cliffhangers, but I think I can just. Also, don't worry about being too quick. I think.
Starting point is 00:20:31 I always worry about being too quick. I know you do. And I think, I think sometimes it's like, hey, listen, people, people listen to us for an hour and a half. They'll listen to us for hour 45.
Starting point is 00:20:39 I guarantee you. You know what I mean? Like, just, just tell us the story. I can't help it. I just, I just feel like attention is always fleeting. Like, I have to keep it.
Starting point is 00:20:48 I have to talk faster. So Trey ends up, this is the same day, last Wednesday, boarding the United flight. Okay. Do you demand to sit by Katie? Katie was nowhere to be found. She was at home. So Trey boards it. We're cheering him on.
Starting point is 00:21:08 We're all texting. This is so electric, dude. This is so fun. Yeah, come on. Go get him. You made the right choice. You got this. We'll see you later.
Starting point is 00:21:15 And he's like, good luck, brother. I'll see you in Wellington. See you on the other side, brother. Because by the time we went to maybe book the United flight, it was like $950 one way. So we're like, we're not important. Don't pay for this. Like, we'll just try it and risk it.
Starting point is 00:21:30 So another hour goes by. We get on the Southwest flight. Wasn't able to upgrade. I'm in the back, little middle seat, you know, C27. And I'm just getting settled in. You know, I'm going to have a nice, got a little OJJ. Simpson documentary. It's made in America.
Starting point is 00:21:47 It's on Netflix now. ESPN one. Yeah, yeah. Catherine's been watching it. Good for her. Not me. Dude, something about this, I meant to text you and Luke Crenshaw.
Starting point is 00:21:55 Remember our favorite line from the show? They took it out? I think they dubbed over it, so say the line. You say the line. O.J. O.J.'s dad is gay man shut up yeah this guy this this old friend of oj simpson's from back in the day childhood friend just like it sounds like he
Starting point is 00:22:14 screamed for eight years straight and so he has no voice left over yeah he's telling this story OJ, did you know OJ's dad is gay? Man, shut up. So maybe he says that similarly again somewhere else in the documentary, but I watched the tail end of episode one or whatever, and he said, did you know OJ's dad is a punk? No way. They change it to is a punk, and this is the exact time they're talking about,
Starting point is 00:22:44 yeah, I walked in on him, he opened the door. No, that's definitely it. Yeah, and this is the exact time they're talking about yeah i walked in on him he opened the door no that's definitely it yeah like this is the time a punk i i rerouted two or three times like am i going crazy he used to say gay now he says punk whoa dude so how did they do that i think like ai deep fake types of they make his lips look like he's saying punk like but i know we had an inside joke about it like it doesn't it's not like one of those like vid angel things yes is uh yeah it looked like he said the word punk and i turned on subtitles like maybe the airpods aren't working yeah whoa conspiracy yeah well it's also on espn the that doc okay we should go compare i also don't know why what why can't they just say it's not like he said like the yeah yeah yeah the other one right like right dude
Starting point is 00:23:30 you can't cool yeah easy we've got a couple n-word sly are you wow that's wild interesting so you're you're in the back So I'm watching that. I'm not going to do it very long, guys. It's going to be a short story. Oh, you want the long version? All right. We're going to get off track. Or Thal James Simpson. Born. Okay. So I am watching this documentary, and I swear I hear my name.
Starting point is 00:23:59 And so I take out an AirPod, and they say, Jacob Triplett? Is there a Jacob Triplett on board? I'm like, whoa. Never had my name called out while on the flight. So that's another thing. I didn't think to hit the button. I've never hit the button. So I'm like, how do I get their attention?
Starting point is 00:24:14 I'm just like looking, like trying to get someone's attention. You're in the very back. And they're like, not totally in the back, kind of just like in the no man's land, kind of just in the middle, middle seat. And then they're like,
Starting point is 00:24:25 is there a Thomas Kennedy on board? It's like, what did we do with happening? And maybe they would just want to like celebrate us, say they're going to a show tonight. You're going to make it. Are we trending? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:38 Why are they saying our name? Is Twitter going nuts? And, uh, so they asked over time, if there's a Jake triple on on board we need you to hit your your call button and several rows behind me i can hear josie laughing so like she was on her flight yeah it's all like wow josie uh is paying attention so i hit the button i'm starting
Starting point is 00:24:58 to get nervous i'm like what am i in trouble for it's like a call to the principal and a flight comes over and she says uh is thomas on this flight and i'm like oh call to the principal and a flight check comes over and she says, uh, is Thomas on this flight? And I'm like, Oh, this is the problem I think. And so I was like, honest with her.
Starting point is 00:25:11 I was like, no, he's not. Um, cause of the delays, he took another flight and she said, well, we're going to need to remove you from the flight.
Starting point is 00:25:17 Whoa. And, uh, my first response was like, Oh, this is like those videos that go viral. I kind of said that to her and she kind of laughed. Um, cause the only time you ever see people get removed from a flight, they're like causing a scene. Yeah. You was like, oh, this is like those videos that go viral. I kind of said that to her, and she kind of laughed. Because the only time you ever see people get removed from a flight,
Starting point is 00:25:28 they're like causing a scene. Yeah, you're like, shake my hand. Shake my hand. You seen that guy? No, I haven't seen shake my hand. I've seen that one. Yeah, I don't know if he's like, I don't know the situation, but he's like yelling at these Asian people,
Starting point is 00:25:39 and he's like, I'll leave once they shake my hand. It's like a weird response. He's just screaming at them. I mean, they look terrified. Shake my hand. Yeah, I want to shake my hand it's like oh yeah weird response he's just screaming at him i mean they look terrified shake my hand yeah i want to shake my hand yeah it's weird um yeah i think people always go viral for being removed from planes acting a fool and i was just like probably the most polite flight removal of all time it was a boeing 737 max so i was like please get me off of here i i would love to get off this plane. And, uh, so I was like, do I need to take my bags? And she's like, yeah, you need to take your bags.
Starting point is 00:26:08 I was like, am I not coming back? She's like, you're not coming back. I was like, oh my gosh. And she's like, yeah, I I'm actually kind of new here, but you're Thomas is your companion. And so if he's not on, you can't fly without him. So I was like, oh, okay. And so I was like, I really need to, I'm sure you hear this all the time but i really like to make this flight because if we didn't make this one there's we for sure we're not going to make it it was like one of the last flights to get us there on time okay and so yeah just get like kicked off the plane it was kind of embarrassing i just have to get all my stuff and it's we're having a conversation it's very polite conversation
Starting point is 00:26:44 but still just like everyone's hearing it. Everyone's taking their headphones out. No one's recording me. Thankfully, but yeah. Um, and we're just watching it. You just scoot past the guy that you just scooted in to get into the middle. Yeah. I got to apologize.
Starting point is 00:26:55 I got to get all my bags and I opened the wrong thing. Oh, sorry. I thought it was in this one. That is, oh, that's rough. When they're all closed. I mean, you don't know where you put your stuff. They all look the same. That's what's so nice about being in the window is that somebody usually opens it for you. Yeah, that's rough. When they're all closed, I mean, you don't know where you put your stuff. They all look the same. That's what's so nice about being in the window is that somebody usually opens it for you.
Starting point is 00:27:09 Yeah, that is nice. I don't have to make those decisions. And so I just have to walk down 25 aisles of the plane and just, yeah, getting booted off with my bags. I love you guys. Getting booed. Getting booed. Boo! He's just the opener.
Starting point is 00:27:22 We've already waited five and a half hours. Whoa, dude. And so then I kind of like hustled to the gate agent. And so I'm like, hey, can I pay for a ticket for that flight right now? His situation. And he's like, here's what we're going to do. We're going to book you on a flight tonight. And then I'm going to use that ticket to get you on standby
Starting point is 00:27:41 and move you to the front of standby because that ticket is cheaper. I was like, okay, all right. Yeah, sure. Whatever. That's, that's a good of him. Nice. Yeah. He seemed, he was stern, but he was efficient. And I was like, great. That, that sounds awesome. Um, and he was like, normally we would never do this, but since the flight's already delayed, we're going to hold the plane until we get this figured out. So I was like, Oh my gosh, really? That's awesome. Oh, he's like, if the plane was on time, we would just leave without. So I was like, oh my gosh. Really? That's awesome. Oh, wow. He's like, if the plane was on time, we would just leave without you.
Starting point is 00:28:06 I was like, that's fair, I guess. I didn't know the rules. I got it. But then this guy starts to get real upset. He's like, so Thomas isn't on this flight. I said, no, he's not. He's like, well, he checked a bag, which Trey communicated with us like,
Starting point is 00:28:17 hey, get my baggage claim. Oh, boy. And so I was like, oh, did he? Well, how about I just pick it up for him? And he's like, well, if he's not flying, we can't travel with his bag. And I'm like, oh, did he? Well, how about I just pick it up for him? And he's like, well, if he's not flying, we can't travel with his bag. And I'm like, oh, man, now Trey, he's going to get there. He's not going to have his bag now. And so then I was like, well, what's going to happen?
Starting point is 00:28:33 He's like, well, I'm going to call down. We're going to have to remove it. And so I was like, well, what's going to happen then? He's like, it'll be in baggage something, you know, here. Yeah, purgatory. He said something else later in the conversation that made me think there was like a 50-50 chance, something like, yeah, I mean, we'll see if his bag makes it. So I was like, oh, so there's a chance this could happen.
Starting point is 00:28:51 So I ended up getting back on the plane. The flight attendants were very surprised to see me. Really? I think they were just like, we've never seen someone get kicked off and come back on seven minutes later. And maybe there was like, no one's ever voluntarily come back on a Boeing 737.
Starting point is 00:29:05 Like usually once you leave, you are done and you never come back here and so i get back on and i feel like there were a bunch of people like surprised to see me as well i was like i made it yeah and um yeah were people talking to you and stuff yeah they're like you're back and i was like i'm not a criminal and uh i'm a good guy it was Yeah. And of course, Isaac, when we landed, eventually had no idea I'd been kicked off or returned to the flight. He just locked in on his phone. Had no idea. This OJ Simpson documentary is wild.
Starting point is 00:29:33 I don't know what he was watching. Yeah. Really? He literally like was not like, why are we moving from this? Yeah. Yeah. I had no idea. Oh, man.
Starting point is 00:29:42 When we eventually landed, where was that flight oh we flew to washington dc one of the flight attendants was like all right glad you made it we're kind of joking around as i'm leaving the plane she's like next time just don't say you're on board kind of joking but also like kind of like life hack just pretend you're not there i was like oh my gosh you're right i should have just never hit the button but at the same time it felt like they knew i scanned in, right? Yeah, I was going to say- And they knew Thomas Trey didn't scan in.
Starting point is 00:30:08 Yeah. Code. We're talking code. Type. Yeah. Yeah. I would not do that. That to me seems-
Starting point is 00:30:17 It seems like- That's when you get arrested. Yeah, because you lied. Yeah. Yeah. So I was like, yeah, maybe. And then you're going to have that same issue in DC. Yes. You know? Wow. So that's what she- She what she was like next time just don't say you're on board next time just get
Starting point is 00:30:30 thomas's boarding pass yes right right that's what we should and trey should have screenshotted it i should have been thomas but i guess i kind of understand but like to me it's like hey you got a ticket either way who cares if you're the companion and he's not there or not it was paid for yeah we didn't... I don't think this is like a loophole. Yeah, he still had to pay for his ticket either way. Yeah. I don't know. Whatever. That's crazy.
Starting point is 00:30:55 So we land in D.C. I think we landed at 5.30 and Tom, tour manager Tom, had booked us a train to depart from like Washington Union Station at 6.30. Okay. This is the last train that will get us to the venue on time.
Starting point is 00:31:11 Okay. It's like a two-hour train ride to get us to Wilmington, Delaware. And this is one of the very rare, we've had less than five, the whole tour at 8 p.m. shows. So we're working out perfect serendipity. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:23 So this is great. I guess it wouldn't have been a two-hour train that wouldn't made sense well you start the show a little bit late i don't know yeah it must have been slightly less than two hours bullet train it was an express one there were like very few stops so yeah maybe it was going to get us there right in time um so we land at 5 30 so tom's like 6 30 train he can make it like surely we can make it. And it's a long walk to baggage claim. I'm hustling. Of course, baggage claim gets stopped, uh, recognized. Oh, well, of course I can't just be like, I gotta go, man. So we're talking, take a selfie. And I'm like, man, I really gotta go. That's tough. Cause like, at least you got baggage claim, like buffer,
Starting point is 00:32:01 you know? Yeah. Yeah. At least it's like, yeah, I can talk to you for a second because I'm sure that my bags aren't going to come out right away. Yeah, it wasn't the worst thing. That's tough though. So we go there and one of the first bags to come out is Trey's bags. Like, oh my gosh, it made it. This is awesome. We had no idea. One of the next first bags that comes out is
Starting point is 00:32:18 Isaac's check bags. Like, this is great, dude. We're going to get out of here in no time. And then five minutes goes by. Probably close to 10 minutes goes by. My bag still hasn't come out yet we start to think oh no did they remove when i got kicked off the plane did they remove my bag because i didn't sure you know they didn't expect me to get back on like oh my gosh well how do we know if my should we just keep waiting or is it gone like how do we find out where my bag is yeah because we need to make this train ride pretty quickly yeah it's a 20 minute Uber to the
Starting point is 00:32:45 train station. Oh, the train station is not in the airport. Not in the airport. So time is crunching down. Dude. Well, first of all, can you tell, justify your checked bag? Why? I feel like a season's travel seasons, season travelers just carry on.
Starting point is 00:33:02 Well, I was going to be gone six days. So it's like, okay, I need a bigger bag. Yeah, New York, I mean, the high most days is like 48 degrees. So there's some layers in there. Okay, okay, okay. I didn't know if it was like, yeah. Because Trey's checking, might as well check mine. And when we got to the airport at noon
Starting point is 00:33:17 or whatever, we didn't think there'd be another hour or two of delays. We thought we were going to be fine. It was southwest. We're like, yeah, might as well check. Whatever. So, we... You're trying to figure this out like is it to the point where like no one is there anymore uh yeah it's starting to get pretty slim so i start to go to like i go to like the baggage like help area yeah i'm asking like here's my id here's my whatever can you see if it's on the plane and she's looking at it i was like i got removed from the flight then i got back on it
Starting point is 00:33:45 so we're afraid it may be that my bag got pulled does that normally happen and while we're figuring it out isaac comes in he's like dude got your bag so i was like see ya yeah so we hop out of there we call uh we try to call an uber to get us to the train station we're waiting we're waiting that uber just like cancels on us like oh man of course of course another uber comes by does one loop around it goes didn't see you guys. Like, oh, my gosh. Does another loop around. Finally, we get in the Uber.
Starting point is 00:34:08 We're like, hey, we're in a big hurry. Train station. Trying to go right now. Fun. It's 25 minutes away. Talk about the second leg of the amazing race. Yeah, this was like big, amazing race, folks. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:17 And we get in this Uber, and our ETA to the train station says like 633. Okay. Tom text says, hey hey there is one other train at 635 i'm gonna rebook you on that one wow tom is in sharp still i'm just like i've never boarded a train like how quick is the boarding process like do you check bag where does the where's my suitcase go i don't know what a passenger train looks like sure it's like but we'll try and we're starting to see the eta go down a little bit 632 631 every every green light you're pumped about yes yeah um yeah it's just stressful like if we don't make the 635 train we don't make the show we make it to the train station at 630 okay we
Starting point is 00:34:58 hop out 633 yeah yeah we hop out kind of far away because it's starting to get real congested once you get close like this is good enough this is good enough we hop out kind of far away. Cause it's starting to get real congested. Once you get close, like this is good enough. This is good enough. We hop out and we start sprinting through Washington, DC, trying to get to a train station. I felt like a founding father, you know, he's like, this is great. That's what they're known for is sprinting to DC just through our nation's Capitol. And it's yeah. Well, it kind of was beautiful. It's like, there's a Capitol, but why? We got to go. We got to go. We get into this train beautiful. It's like, there's a capital, but why? Watch your mind. Forget it. We gotta go. Forget it. We get into this train station,
Starting point is 00:35:27 and it's like Union Station, but times 10. It's huge. It's gorgeous. Yeah. I even, we're sprinting through. I was like, this feels like the Amazing Race, how they can't take in the beauty because they have to go.
Starting point is 00:35:37 I love how you're, yeah, you're externally like processing it. Like, this is amazing. We gotta come back and see this. Shut up and run! Go! Isaac was laughing. He's like, dude, come on.
Starting point is 00:35:48 I was like, this is so like it. This is crazy. Have you taken a train like this in the United States? Yes, but not very often because it's very rare in the Midwest. People travel by train. Of course, Lucas, hours later, is making fun of me for how he's like, this is so common here in the Northeast. Let's make fun of you for not knowing things's like this is so common here all right in the northeast let's make fun of
Starting point is 00:36:05 you for not knowing things about that we know not saying hope it was chaos in there i couldn't believe how many people take trains this is what lucas was making fun of me for i was like i didn't know people i thought this is like crazy circumstances you have to take a train this is like from the 1940s yeah it's like because this is different than a subway this is like a long train ride crossing state lines. I don't know. I just didn't think this would be that popular. You need passports to do that, I thought.
Starting point is 00:36:28 Yeah, maybe. So where am I? I added my notes. This all happened seven days ago. So you're sprinting. Was it hard to find the train? Dude, there is no signage in these train stations. And the lines are so long.
Starting point is 00:36:45 So we're trying to ask people, like, what are you in line for? What are you? I don't see a single word that says Wilmington. I don't know. Nothing says the train we need to go to. There's all these gates where there's no one in line. It seems like everyone's at the same gate. It's just hysteria in there.
Starting point is 00:36:57 And we don't know. I mean, we just look like such tourists. We don't know what's going on. And you are. I mean, to an extent. We really are. I mean, people are trying to help us. You know, me and Isaac are like, could this be everyone going to willington sure there's not this people people going to
Starting point is 00:37:07 willington delaware this lady walks by goes oh there are like okay hey i don't know no no yeah no offense and eventually we just like we missed the train i don't know when it took off or where it left from but we weren't gonna to make it either way, I think. Just like it was. There's just a huge line to get in or whatever. I think we already missed it. These people were already, like it had already boarded. It was maybe like sealed up going by the time we got to the gates.
Starting point is 00:37:36 Dang, dude. So we have to send in the text just like, we're not going to make it. Hey, Lucas, get to do more time tonight. We'll see you guys whenever we see you. We don't what we're gonna do now the next train whatever i wonder how much an uber would it cost so we'll get there okay it's our train but now we get to explore the washington union station this place is pretty grimy in certain parts but like in the food court area but they have a food court okay they got a got a little Chick-fil-A. They got a little Chipotle down there.
Starting point is 00:38:05 Jersey Mike's. Some halal food down there. Dude, you ever tried it? Nope. You would like it. Would I? I don't know. You should like it. It's good. Okay. You like hummus? It's fine. It's not bad. All right. Go ahead.
Starting point is 00:38:21 What'd you go with? I decided to go with Chipotle. I was like, we look up train cost times and Uber. And Uber makes more sense at this point. Because now we don't need to get there by a certain time. So it's going to take longer, but it's cheaper. And we get to split it. Okay.
Starting point is 00:38:39 I was like, I'm going to get my Chipotle. And then to kind of maximize our time, I will, uh, I'll call an Uber and I'll eat the Chipotle on the way. And we, uh, we kind of realized like, oh yeah, we're asking an Uber driver to drive us over two hours to Delaware. This might be a pretty big ask. I don't actually know if this is going to work out. Right. The very first one we call, he accepts the ride and we're just waiting for him to cancel it. Like he's going to realize any second, a couple minutes go by, has it canceled? Like, all right, let's go. Let's go back out front. That's when I get a phone call. He's like, Hey, I, uh, I accepted this without really looking. Where are we going? I was like, yeah, figuring I'd get this call. We're going to
Starting point is 00:39:16 Wilmington, Delaware. He's like, Ooh, well, I've never been up there. I don't know. That's a long way though. Why don't I, um, why don't you guys just come out front and we'll just kind of meet face to face. So I think he was wanting to kind of like size this up. Like, are these guys normal? I'm about to spend two hours with these guys. Sure, yeah. It's fair.
Starting point is 00:39:36 So we want to meet us face to face. And eventually, I guess we just kind of win him over. And he's like, you know what? Let's do it. I called Uber and made sure it was okay with them. I my wife she's gonna take care of the kids tonight oh gosh oh gosh oh you got kids dude um yeah yeah yeah i mean i mean we're divorced but like so i get him like one night a week but no it's fine it's fine you guys seem like good guys you guys are awesome you're from out of town and so then but even though he's
Starting point is 00:40:06 accepting it's very hesitantly it's like so yeah yeah we could let's let's go to delaware it's like i i hope you want to do this i don't know it doesn't feel like you do all right let's let's go and then he sees me come in with the chipotle and we start to drive off. And he's like, oh, one thing, no eating in the car. And I was like, you know what? You're driving us to Delaware. I don't have to eat. You know, it's been a long day. I was really looking forward to this Chipotle.
Starting point is 00:40:34 But whatever. All I've had is the acai bowl in the morning. But wow, you're driving us Delaware. All good. He's like, you sure? You sure you don't want to eat? I mean, you can just call another Uber. I bet another Uber will let you eat. And so I was like, he's like, you sure? You sure you don't want to eat? I mean, you can just call another Uber. I bet another Uber would let you eat.
Starting point is 00:40:45 And so I was like, he's like regretting this. He's like trying to convince me that I want this so bad. And are you wearing shoes? Sorry, no shoes in the car. Another Uber usually would let you have shoes probably. Sorry, I'm so picky. I get it. Hey, if you want to call another one, I totally understand.
Starting point is 00:41:00 You guys like music? No, no, we're good without music. Sorry, rule, rule gotta blast the music the entire time it's either polka or metal what do you think or polka metal and yeah that was a funny part of it he was just like i you could just take another one i'm sure when you want that sure it's okay you don't want to get another one and um holy cow so that was kind of funny and so he did say he's like you know what i gotta stop and go to the restroom soon when i stop that could be a time for you to like eat it really quickly it's like
Starting point is 00:41:28 hey great sure whatever so he's more worried about eating with a moving vehicle than eating in the vehicle no he's just like i could while he goes to the restroom i would get out of the car stand outside yeah okay and better than nothing 10 minutes go by and we haven't stopped anywhere 30 minutes go by i'm like well I don't want to upset him. I thought he had to go to the restroom. You're not really drinking very much water over there. An hour goes by and Isaac texts me. He's like, I don't think we're making that stop.
Starting point is 00:41:55 I was like, yeah, I gave up on it. And then what do you know? I mean, probably five minutes later, he's like, all right, you about ready to stop? And I was like, yeah, let's do it. And so we stop at a Starbucks. He goes in, goes to the bathroom gets a coffee and i just slam a cold burrito as quickly as possible standing outside i mean rice is like chewy yeah it's all falling all over me um oh my gosh of course dude this is gonna sound like i'm eating it in front of a homeless guy you know just
Starting point is 00:42:19 like i'm i'm like basically staring at him eating food on a sidewalk. It was like, I promise you it's my only option. In this scenario, I'm in. Listen, buddy, I know, I know. I don't like how this- If I don't get it done in time, it's yours, all right? Hey, yeah. If you want the last fourth of this cold one, he probably would be like, actually, I'm good.
Starting point is 00:42:35 Yeah, that actually looks unappetizing to me. We ended up missing the show. By how much? I got there for the last two minutes of Trey's final song. No way. So I got there at the very end of it. I took video. I thought this would be kind of funny,
Starting point is 00:42:48 I don't know, just to blackmail Trey someday, of him doing the curtain call. Like, I'm clearly there side stage, and he just didn't call me out. You know, it just looks like it was a normal show where I performed. He's like,
Starting point is 00:42:58 get up for Lucas, the DJ at Allen. You know, I was like, dude, what the frick? I'm literally right here side stage. Come on. I can't believe you wouldn't do that. That's funny. I don't know what I'll ever do with that video, but it was kind of funny to record that. in you know i was like dude what the frick i'm literally right here side stage come on you wouldn't do that that's funny i don't know what i'll ever do with that video but it was kind of funny to record that and that'd be that'd be pretty funny yeah just as a joke sometimes to be like i don't know what i i can't wait to tell you what i did to trey to make him
Starting point is 00:43:19 something like that and just post on your story yeah that's kind of fun yeah truly clickbait yeah so anyway it was just uh i guess that's kind of the end of that day it was just a wild day of just like man when that was all said and done it was just like and i think we like went out and like hung out that night like we went and got some like pizza that night and you know we're out late watching like nba play i don't know what we end up watching that night all together but it's just like i can't believe i woke up at 5 45 this morning in kansas city that's wild wow that was a long day yeah we'll come to the thunderstorms and yeah i saw josie i got kicked off the plane today i ran through a train station and an airport wow that's fun i took a two-hour uber today oh my gosh down a burrito in a gas station. Wow. Fun day. And shout out to Trey. He
Starting point is 00:44:05 paid Isaac and I regardless. Wow. That was fun. That is nice. That made it kind of worth it. I was like, you know what? I felt bad. We had fun. I checked my DMs to see if there were any ghosties. I never saw anything beforehand or afterwards. I felt bad if any ghosties came and didn't get to see me perform. But I never saw anything, so maybe there weren't any there.
Starting point is 00:44:22 Okay, so what should you give all the ghosties that were there to see you? Are you going to do a private show for them? Is that what you're saying? More than that, I want to give you my birthright. Firstborn son. Birthright.
Starting point is 00:44:32 Yep. Calling him Will. Yep. Middle name Mington. That's so crazy. So, okay. Fun day. Yeah, it's a crazy day.
Starting point is 00:44:43 But yeah, adventurous. It's going to be a memorable, like you're not going to forget that. Yeah. And I got to do it with Isaac and I feel like I took lots of videos and yeah, it was just fun. It was fun to send you that voice memo. Those kinds of days are fun. I just lived like three days in one. Like when you just do so much in a day, someday I'm going to be lame. I'm going to be old. I'm going to be boring. I'm like, man, I used to like really run around town. Yeah. Yeah. That's always like just this week when I've been working so hard on this woodworking thing,
Starting point is 00:45:09 I was like talking to Catherine. I was like, yeah, on Sunday when I was doing this, I was like, wait, Sunday was yesterday. You know, like, yeah. Like when, when, when your days are so full, sometimes Sunday, like one day feels like so far away. Like, whoa, I saw Josie this morning. Like, wow. That's crazy because it feels like that was three days ago. Yeah. Like, whoa, I saw Josie this morning. Like, that's crazy because it feels like that was three days ago. Yeah. I saw my wife this morning. Yeah, that's fun. Crazy. Yeah, it was really fun to do it with Isaac. We had a fun time together just laughing at all
Starting point is 00:45:33 the different stuff and good time. So how how much longer was or shorter whatever was the show with you not there? Like how much did Lucas do? I asked him and he said he ended up doing like 25 minutes so really um he's comfortable just doing that off the cuff yeah i mean i think in the fall lucas spent like 30 days in scotland doing like his own like hour-long show like every
Starting point is 00:45:58 night he would do an hour-long show at this like comedy festival wow so he's got plenty of material yeah easy no problem okay but so the show is still relatively, they got their money's worth and yeah, Isaac and I just got there at the very end and just, uh, yeah, it's kind of hung out. Lucas's parents were there, met him. Cool. So that was kind of worked out. They got to see him do way more. Yeah. That's yeah. Maybe there are some silver linings here. It sounds like at least there weren't a ton of ghosties if there were. Yeah. Maybe zero, maybe zero. Like at least it wasn't in Salt Lake city or something. Yeah. Springfield.
Starting point is 00:46:29 Something. Yeah. Something terrible. Like I can't believe it. We could perform for them. So it was nice. It's crazy that this has not happened more. That's what we talked about.
Starting point is 00:46:36 We're like, you know what? Cause Tom is always big on like, we need to find the day before. Yeah. Train. I were like, we got so much going on.
Starting point is 00:46:41 We can't be gone another additional day. We're going to find the day of. And in like three years years of touring this is the first time it's ever even been close yeah and trey made it he said he got there at like 7 40 or so so obviously no sound check no anything you know he's went up there and performed like 45 minutes after getting there i mean talk about like uh like a fun like you've you've been doing this i'm not saying it's monotonous by any means but like you guys have done so many of these shows talk about a fun like change up to be like hey you're on in 30 minutes like you're here hi nice to meet you uh this is this is where your green room is get ready because you're going out i know i think about that sometimes like when i
Starting point is 00:47:19 was getting nervous for the special i was like there's nothing to be nervous about i want someone to spring it on me in the next 30 seconds because i could do it i could do it at any time of day right it's a routine yeah but something about just like waiting to do it makes it worse like yeah i could do it right now no problem that's fun man it is fun wow so rest of the shows you want to talk about those you want to let's do a little hey Let's talk about something. What are you gonna talk about? The Bible app is back. Yes. Yes. Yes.
Starting point is 00:47:54 Read the Bible can be tough. I think it'd be tough to carve out time. I think it'd be tough to like, even find time that makes sense for you to like physically sit down and read it. Would you say so? Like it's, there are, and there are better solutions to this. Like if you could take in the Bible more passively or while you're doing something you're already going to be doing, like doing the dishes or
Starting point is 00:48:13 driving, what a, what an amazing thing to have the ability to do. What a life hack. Life hack. Is there a way? Well, there's probably not a way to do that though. Is there? You probably got to download Audible and make an account. How much does that cost? And you have to record yourself reading the entire Bible, right? How long can voice memos be? I don't know. I mean, do I have that much room on my phone?
Starting point is 00:48:37 I got to get a second Bible phone. Wait. No, there is a solution, and it's called the Dwell Bible app. Dwell Bible app. But don't take my word for it. Who are we going to take? Take Brad. No, wait.
Starting point is 00:48:48 Don't take Brad's word for it. Don't take Brad. Don't take Tymon's word for it. Me, me. Yes. Take Katherine Robinson's word for it, who just 23 hours ago posted this unsolicited. Ghosty Katherine Robinson. Yeah, this is not like some celebrity you're supposed to know.
Starting point is 00:49:06 Take Kate Robinson's word for it. This is a fan. Mom from seventh heaven. Who posted in our Facebook group. Out of nowhere, I am in love with the Dwell Bible app. I decided to take the plunge and just purchase the year subscription with the discount code, and I'm so glad I did. I like that you can choose different narrators,
Starting point is 00:49:24 and that you can change the music in the background as well you can also change the volume of both the music and narration i'm doing the nlt version with the piano and cello you've got a biflap hello and cello background and it's amazing i listen as i read and i love this so much more than what i was previously using this is worth the the price, and it's so beautiful, too. I can't wait to explore this app some more. What a review. What a review. From old Cat Rob. That's right.
Starting point is 00:49:50 And there's even comments. Deb Baker says, I've been meaning to post something like this, too. I'm so glad they're a sponsor. Their app has changed the way I read the Bible. That's cool. That's really cool. How, I mean,
Starting point is 00:50:01 if you're going to change something about your life, that's a pretty good one to start with. Yeah, and if you don't know D, like the, the thing that makes them different is that, yeah, you can consume an audio form, but then they have, yeah, all these cool, unique, soothing voices. Uh, you can change the different styles of music on there. You can, you do all these different things. Uh, it's very customizability and now they have a new feature called the dwell daily devotional. And that's nice. Cause I think it could be hard. It's such intimidating, Cause I think it could be hard.
Starting point is 00:50:25 It's such intimidating, whatever adjective you want to give it. But like some of us are like, I want to read my Bible. Yeah. Read your Bible today. Oh, well, there's a lot of them where they're being books.
Starting point is 00:50:32 Yeah. Them being words, them, them having boards and books. Luckily and chapter it's translated in English, but still it can be tough to know where to start. Yep. What the daily devotional,
Starting point is 00:50:43 it, it makes it so easy for you. You can do it. Yeah, Daily Devotional, get in there, get in the Word every single day. It's fresh, thoughtfully crafted devotional.

Starting point is 00:51:50 It was, it was a, it was like a genuinely wild experience. I was pulling, it was, first of all, it was classic. This guy parked in like the biggest spot in the parking lot,
Starting point is 00:51:58 like right where like everyone could see it anyway. Um, but I'm pulling straight forward towards it and I'm like, I'm pretty good with cars. I think like, what? Is that a Rivian? That's what I thought first. And I was like, I think that's a Cybertruck.
Starting point is 00:52:14 Sure enough, dude. Sure enough. Saw it again. We had a men's worship night last night. It was there again. I almost touched it. So he's a man. So he's a man.
Starting point is 00:52:21 Shocker. A man that drives a Cybertruck. Okay. I almost touched it. I did. I thought about like, it'd be kind of cool to say I drives a Cybertruck. Okay. I almost touched it. I did. I thought about like, it'd be kind of cool to say I touched a Cybertruck, but I was like,
Starting point is 00:52:30 what if it like has some Tesla, you know, camera that goes on every time someone gets close to it. And this weirdo is like, who's this weirdo touching my truck? He's touching it so strangely. He's really caressing the thing. I think he's doing men's worship night right now on my truck.
Starting point is 00:52:47 It was so funny. I mean, Catherine, I just rolled my eyes at her last night. She's like, so it's not even a truck though. It's a cyber... What's it called? She doesn't have any idea about anything. You wear this? They're like goggles? What? Yeah. How is that thing a truck? I was like, I don't know what to tell you. It's just a truck.
Starting point is 00:53:04 Four wheels. It's got a truck. Four wheels. It's got a bed. It does? So I don't want one by any means, but I'm very intrigued by them. They're like all getting recalled because of the accelerator pedal. I haven't heard that. Yeah. Bad thing.
Starting point is 00:53:17 Yeah. A couple of bad things with it. What do you mean? Like it just sticks? I think what I saw, yes, essentially. It sticks down. Like it gets stuck down. Terrifying. saw, yes, essentially. It sticks down. Like it gets stuck down. Terrifying.
Starting point is 00:53:26 Yeah. That's nice. That's terrifying. Luckily, it should like, you know, stay out of the way. It won't like bulldoze an entire building if it ran into it full speed. But you can throw a baseball and hopefully the window won't break down. 50-50. At least there's that.
Starting point is 00:53:40 Yeah. Yeah, apparently this guy that has it works for tesla in kansas city and so wow this truck oh neato so i don't know if it's his truck or if he's like just test driving it he's kind of letting people touch it crashing into it crashing into buildings i think i saw two in california wow i was driving around but one of them it was so it had like okay guess what color it was wrapped matte black no if he's making us guess forest green sorry my guess was so bad it was purple brown oh no it looked so bad i was like why would you that might be one of the last uh not the last ones but that's not good i mean any
Starting point is 00:54:17 car shouldn't be brown i don't think any car i try tanks in Afghanistan? Defender of freedom? Hey, idiot. Operation Iraqi Freedom. Where would we be without our Browns? Dude, Bo is like... UPS trucks? Yeah, what can Brown do for you? They got to rebrand because Tymon doesn't like Brown.
Starting point is 00:54:39 Oh, Tymon thinks it's not good enough. Let's do blue and orange. Now we're FedEx. Oh, yeah, good idea. Bo randomly has chosen brown to be his new favorite color. It's so funny. I can't remember if it was mine or my sister's.
Starting point is 00:54:54 Definitely my sister's favorite color, just because horses were that color. There it is. Yeah, Bo's like, can I get a brown plate tonight? I'm like, we don't have brown plates. Get a blue one, you weirdo. That's a sad favorite color.
Starting point is 00:55:08 It is. And for a while it was like, yeah, my favorite color is blue and red and yellow and purple and brown. That's amazing. And now it's just brown for a while. So we'll see. You just mix them all together. Yeah, basically.
Starting point is 00:55:23 Just put them all together and get that. So that's funny. Brad, I'd like to tell you a story of something that happened last week. I didn't get to bring it up in the podcast. And if you don't mind time and I would like to sing it for you. Freaking frick. Go ahead. Another flashback.
Starting point is 00:55:41 No, just good. I know it's I knew that is the week of Gulf Shores. Oh, you know, so or no, sorry. I'm just saying I didn't want to put anything else on your plate. I, uh, no, it's, I knew this is the week of Gulf Shores. Oh. You know, so, or no, sorry, I'm just saying I didn't want to put anything else on your plate. I thought you were about to do like an island themed. No, no, no. Um, so I was like, let's do one more, me and Tymon. Okay, okay, okay.
Starting point is 00:55:56 Next week. Hey, Ghost, don't worry. Don't tell Tymon, but I have some plans for us, alright? You just, you just sit back, relax, and eat the grapes. You got it, buddy. Also, real quick before we start. Ghosties out there on YouTube, what is this lid for?
Starting point is 00:56:12 This is great, because hopefully they're coming to YouTube for the song anyway, so this is great. Two in one. You can look at the lid and the song. I mean, this lid was on the grapes, and it's a Tupperware lid. It's got this, maybe it's a straw holder? I don't know. I thought it maybe was for a lid. It's got this, maybe it's a straw holder. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:56:27 I thought it maybe was for like a snack. It seems like a European, like a Scandinavian lid design. They know what they're doing over there. There's a hole in it, a lot of curves. There's a hole hole? Or I don't know, just like a... Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. It's like for communion.
Starting point is 00:56:41 It's like when you get done with your communion cup, you put it in there. No, yeah, like, oh, I just saw there's an outline of a knife right here on this part. Oh, okay. So, oh, maybe, well. Come on, you got it. Encyclopedia Brown, you got this. Yeah, maybe it's like, this is like where you can hold your knife for a picnic. And this is where you take shots out of. We're doing a great shot.
Starting point is 00:57:08 This is great. You come for the lid, you stay for the song on YouTube. A lot of visuals here. Alright. I'm not going to tell you what it's about or anything. Tymon, you ready? I hope so. Get as ridiculous as possible.

For a sec, thought that I was lost. No big deal that I didn't floss. Heard my name in my ears. Said bye to the lady with the beard.

Give it to me one time and worry just lean back give it to me one time and it still hurt give it to me two times that it still hurt three times four times do I hear five pretty sure I'm barely alive five times the anesthesia dear Jesus I think I need you whole mouth feels like it's dead when I tried to talk here's what I said said.

This here is make or break he said you there hello jake through the silence my heart drops low he's gonna say what i fear i know bad dream like inception we're gonna go in a new direction wanna beg i wanna plead this here means so much to me he said i'll give you one last try but what can I say with the tongue so tied try to show him what I'm about open my mouth here's what came
Starting point is 00:59:28 out in the land. Oh, my goodness. Tymon, that was so funny. That settlement. That's a fun song because we could do it 10 times and it would never sound the same. Oh, Tymon, that was so good. That was so funny. Thank you.
Starting point is 01:00:04 I really didn't know if you were going to... Yeah, that was great. Oh, that was awesome. Yeah, Tymon sent over a voice memo. It basically sounded like that. I was like, hey, here's the song this week. Well, I heard you were listening to something earlier. Is that what you were listening to?
Starting point is 01:00:19 You were practicing? You were practicing your syllables? I was at the lowest volume in my ear. I was like, how did I do this again? What's Tymon listen to over there? Yeah, I was like already planning on making the chorus gibberish for like the story. This truly is what happened.
Starting point is 01:00:31 This is based on real events last week. And then when Tymon sent over a chorus, it was basically gibberish. I was like, oh, just do that. Don't change a thing. Because he was, yeah, he was just practicing the syllables or practicing the tune. Yeah, he gave me another ba-da-bop again. And yeah, I was like, dude, he was just practicing the syllables or practicing. Yeah. He gave me another butt up, bop again. And, um, yeah, I was like, dude, I'm laughing so hard by myself.
Starting point is 01:00:50 Just listening to this. Um, I was like, this is perfect. Just do that. Um, that sounded like a band in Branson. Like that sounds like an ass over to our city would do, you know, like that's a bald knobber song. Yeah. Going to the dentist yeah um that really did
Starting point is 01:01:08 happen i've got to talk about it last week but he kept me like all right you should be numb now i need to go into work on my teeth and i would just like involuntarily like flinch in pain because he's like doing something in my tooth i mean it hurts like crazy yeah he's doing a feeling so he's like in the center of my tooth he's like touching a nerve that's supposed to be numb and it's not and boy it hurt it's like oh okay i'm so sorry i'll give you more and then we i would just keep doing it and i'm like i'm sorry man but i can still feel it like i don't know what to say it's not taken whoa and so maybe he was missing the nerve and so he's just getting my mouth and so eventually i am so numb dude dude. It's crazy. Then, yeah, I had a big phone call afterwards. I had to try to talk on the phone.
Starting point is 01:01:48 I was like, eating feels dangerous right now. He's like, oh, yeah, do not try and eat. You'll bite your tongue. So I tried to drink a smoothie. I'm just like, it's coming out my mouth. And then a volleyball game that night, and I couldn't really talk. I'm just spiking it with my face.
Starting point is 01:02:03 What are you doing? What are you doing? Girl! Go out and touch it. Go touch. Go'm just like spiking it with my face. Where did it go? Where did it go? Go! Go touch it! Go touch! Go touch it! Oh, wow. That's a true story.
Starting point is 01:02:10 I've had it happen once. Like I've had a shot, you know, and like one shot is enough to be like, that's kind of hard to eat. I don't really, yeah. You feel kind of scared to eat. You had six of them or whatever? Yeah, I think I had four to five times the normal amount of like local anesthesia.
Starting point is 01:02:28 And so what you had some phone call and some guy was like, I don't think, or is that, was that dramatization? That is a combination, you know, let's, you know,
Starting point is 01:02:36 rap genius. So when I wrote that lyric, no, um, I really did have a frizzle fry. It's spreading the gospel. Yeah. Yeah. Is what it means.
Starting point is 01:02:46 No, it's a combination of two different phone calls I've had this past week. One, I really did have an important phone call right after the dentist. I didn't get bad news during that phone call, but I did get bad news like two days ago. Hey, it's all good, guys. Nobody freak out.
Starting point is 01:03:00 It's fine. It's all going to work out. I mean, he took an Uber and it was fine. I couldn't eat, but it worked out. So it was, yeah, two stories wrapped into one for the art. For dramatic effect. I love it. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:03:13 But yeah, otherwise everything had to happen. I met a guy at Trey's New Year's Eve party. Uh-huh. And he's like, yeah, I'm a dentist. Like, I could use a dentist. And he goes, you're a church, right? I'm a student. I was like, oh.
Starting point is 01:03:24 Yeah. Great. I'm sure you know how to like. That's, I'm a dentist. Like, I could use a dentist. He goes, I'm a student. I was like, oh, yeah, great. That's I'm sure you know how to like. That's what I was hoping for. Fill a filling without absolutely brutally hurting. It's a bummer. I have to go back in tomorrow. Of course, the two days I'm home before Gulf Shores.
Starting point is 01:03:39 Like, let's go back to the dentist because I can't chew on the left side of my mouth. Just like the fill. I think it like it's not like my bite isn't. Maybe just go a regular dentist oh i'm uh no i'm so done i am i am never going back to the clinic again yeah i i could afford it i just say all times in your life like i think this is the right time to probably afford it yeah uh that's yeah it's like too too filled yeah i think yeah i think so it's like it's too far down and so when i chew it like it like makes a weird sound and like scrapes it like slides against my teeth it's really painful dang so for the last week i've just had to chew you know i left for new york city the day afterwards so then i i've just had to chew everything on the right side of
Starting point is 01:04:18 my mouth for the last week and so now i have these like canker sores in my right cheek just because all the food has just been there for a week. Gosh. It's awesome. That reminded me of I bit my tongue real bad on Sunday morning at the very end of church. Like I was chewing gum during church, which Catherine would say, don't chew gum during church. And you're right, Kath. What verse is that in? Yeah, exactly. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:04:40 Show me that legalist. And yeah, get up to sing the final song. And I just bite the heck out of my tongue. Like to the point where like I went to the bathroom afterwards and I was just spitting out like, Oh, very red blood. You bit it so hard. Oh dude. Yeah. Do you think it was bleeding for 15 minutes? I've never bit my tongue that bad. Yeah. Not that hard. It still is kind of hurt on Wednesday because you were chewing gum or were you trying to speak in tongues and God was like, Hey, we don't have an interpreter? I will rebuke him.
Starting point is 01:05:07 I don't think so. Not Southern Baptist. No, yeah, dude. It was bad. And so I actually thought about this. Maybe this could be an impromptu segment, but it's just I have a problem. And that's the name of the segment. Because I think I bite my tongue way more often. And like that, like probably once every two months.
Starting point is 01:05:27 Okay. Like pretty often, maybe even, maybe even a little more frequently than that. This one was worse, I think, than most, but yeah, I have a problem and it is biting my tongue too often. Do you guys have any, it could be anything like, Hey, I have a problem. I can't stop doing X. I have a problem. I'm, you know, I have a problem i can't stop doing x i have a problem i'm you know i have a problem uh
Starting point is 01:05:47 i have been running a mile every single day for i don't know 120 days in a row and i still forget some days and i remember at 10 p.m that's crazy oh my gosh i'm an idiot yeah so i have a problem yeah you think you develop a habit after what they said 21 days not after 121 yeah like like you think like you'd feel like something's missing from my i feel like i haven't done everything yet and i guess that is what's happening because i do eventually remember i guess but sometimes i'm surprised like wow 8 p.m just not thought of it like yeah my day's been fine i don't know i i don't i need to do one more thing i think i don't laundry oh run the mile yeah a while all right i think if you did it at the same
Starting point is 01:06:24 if it was like a scheduled routine in your day. That's a good point. Then you wouldn't forget, which I'm not saying that I do. Tymon has a problem. He gives advice. He doesn't take himself. Tymon has a problem.
Starting point is 01:06:36 He gives advice that he didn't get asked to give. All right? Know your role. Use your fingers. All right? Not your mouth. Tymon, do you have a problem? I'm trying to find something in my, like, any notes that I have.
Starting point is 01:06:52 I don't know. I'm sure I have. Do you have another problem? I don't know. I'm trying to think of anything. I have a problem. Up until age 32, I would only get my hair cut at gray clips. But that has been eradicated.
Starting point is 01:07:04 I can now see that that was a problem yeah it's gotten better i could have told you that um yeah i don't know that's my i i may not i i might have a problem okay i probably don't shower as much as i need to what like i think sometimes you shower like three times a day yeah i would never i think that's a little more than neat than like then like you would need to. I don't know. So you're giving advice again. This is good. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:07:29 I'm just kidding, Ty. I've showered. It's not too uncommon for me to shower twice in a day, but then also not too uncommon for occasionally I won't shower like a day. Really? Yeah. Oh, man. So Saturdays, you know, it was big dadder days.
Starting point is 01:07:45 It's when I take the kids out and often I'll try to sleep in a little bit on Saturdays, like, and just wake up when the kids come and wake us up. And so I will miss my shower often on Saturday mornings. And I feel so like, I think there's something about my attitude that's worse all day because I'm not, I haven't showered yet. I will say for sure, like affects the entire day. If I don't shower in the morning, like I have, it's like a just start. It's like in order for my day to start, I feel like I have to be like, I have to have gotten wet like this morning. I, I gotta get wet. I don't care. It can be a pool. It can be outside with a thunderstorm. Apparently I feel like it genuinely is that though. Like I wouldn't even, I wouldn't like need to have
Starting point is 01:08:23 used soap to feel like, okay, I'm good. Just like, and like, just, yeah, just like getting new clothes and my hair is not like bed,
Starting point is 01:08:31 bed anymore. Just like, yeah, I feel like I can't do much until I've showered. I have a problem. I don't think I ever consume any iron cause I don't eat red meat. Oh really? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:08:44 Yeah. Probably not. Cause the other things that have iron, you're not eating either. Probably. Okay. I have a problem. I don't eat red meat. Oh, really? Yeah. Yeah, probably not because the other things that have iron, you're not eating either probably. Okay, I have a problem. I don't eat spinach either, guys. Well, with broccoli? I don't know.
Starting point is 01:08:52 I don't eat blood. I know that has iron in it. You got to get some pills. Or chewable tablets. I think I did have iron pills. No, I definitely did. So, yeah, I should get back on those. I have more problems.
Starting point is 01:09:05 I wish I had. Yeah, I didn't think about it this morning i have a problem i bite my nails 32 years old still buy my nails same same i don't think it's a problem okay i haven't used it i don't mind doing it like i feel like it's nice i don't have to like i don't have to clip them i have not clipped my nails in a long time i don't think i've ever clipped my fingernails in my life. No. Really? When I was younger, my mom, like, when I was, like, a little, like, a very small child, my mom, like, clipped them. Well, I'm sure my mom did too.
Starting point is 01:09:34 Yeah, but I don't remember it. Yeah. No, I don't think that's a problem. There's no need to. I have a problem. I really don't value food very well. i i don't care about nice restaurants i don't care about food that's gonna taste better or i just like just whatever's quick just get it over with that's like the opposite really true though more often than not i mean like because if that's the case then you would be eating differently at home like you just eat at home every single day
Starting point is 01:10:03 or you'd like take something to go with you wait yeah because you'd eat rice or something i don't know what i'm saying like right now i just like whatever like i eat like the same five places and they're all really close by to me i think those are all just like really good like the food tastes really good i feel like because are because are you saying but they're all like any food's fine for you is kind of what you're saying? I guess so. I just don't value a nice restaurant or sitting down at a restaurant. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:10:30 I'd rather eat food in my home and not tip a waiter and watch whatever I want on the TV rather than whatever game is on at some restaurant. I think if that's a problem, I think I have that same problem then, probably. Just like last night, Rachel and I just got chilies to go and just ate it at our table. I thought that was awesome. Yeah, that sounds great. Just get it over with.
Starting point is 01:10:53 I would way rather do that than sit down at a nice restaurant for an hour and a half. I love eating fast food at home. Yeah. See, you know me. I'm opposite. I love eating in a restaurant. Any time for it to get cold.
Starting point is 01:11:04 No, exactly. I want it to be just like God intended it, fresh. I love eating in a restaurant. You don't have any time for it to get cold. No, exactly. I want it to be just like God intended it, fresh, fresh on the plate. Yeah. We went to McLean's the other day for Datter Days, and Bo found a dime on the ground somewhere like the day before, and he's like, I really want to spend – I want to use my dime to buy my own breakfast. And I said, well, it's not enough. I'm sorry.
Starting point is 01:11:25 But he's like, okay, I'm going to bring it anyway. And he's like, I'll bring my money too. And I was like, okay guys, but I'm still having to pay for this anyway. But they both, uh, tipped, tipped the barista. It was pretty cute. Yeah. How do you, how do you just took her money out of her purse and just like put it in there? There's some coins. It was pretty sweet. Yeah. Yeah. He also like, we went to the doll store the other day and she told the lady, yeah, I have $76. I'm like, Hattie, we don't tell people how much money we have.
Starting point is 01:11:52 Don't get in the habit of doing that. Yeah, that's not a good idea. I don't want people to think I'm anti-tipping. I don't have a problem with tipping. I'm just saying. I like my own home to eat. I just want to say that. I don't have that problem. Tymon? I was going to say, I have a problem. I've been working for Ghost Run runners for over a year and I completely forgot to upload, uh, an episode like last with a Wednesday one with, I thought you

Maybe you could go back on YouTube and look at my face. Cause I think maybe it was just a little bit like, what are you about to say right now? Dude, yeah. Thinking about that makes me so anxious. That would be so bad. Yeah, I know. It is the biggest bummer because we can't replicate something twice.
Starting point is 01:12:35 The reactions or anything. No, it's so hard. Yeah, if we did it again, I wouldn't have said settlement probably. Yeah, a whole little song. Among the gibberish. No, that was great though. I loved a few things that weren't gibberish like that was so funny you know what it seemed like you were saying something yeah i had like since i'm genuinely i feel like i'm just not very good at improv i like wrote down a few like random like just simply random words then i was like i don't have like enough so i went i looked

Starting point is 01:30:53 I'm now, all right. I'm going to walk you through my thought process. This is probably not going to make Instagram. Who cares? Now I'm thinking about the back. I'm like, oh my gosh, your spine is so long. I'm not going to give you any kind of indication but the spine would have been longer than any of the bones already mentioned so i don't think the spine could be it
Starting point is 01:31:09 although it does seem like i'm curious let's get a medical expert to tell me how the spine isn't longer than all those other things or the vertebrae yeah yeah yeah if it's i think that the spine is made up a bunch of small things is that true okay maybe it's not like one singular that's that's what i But hey, hey, hey. Go with whatever you want, man. I would have gone one for four so far. Take the United fight. I don't care.
Starting point is 01:31:34 All right. Not the back. All right, we've done here. We've done here. I kind of want to nail this. I don't know what this is called. This seems next up. Oh, what about a rib?
Starting point is 01:31:48 What else do I have? Breast plate? It's righteous. What's longer, this or a rib? I don't know what this is called. I gotta go rib. Rib. Seventh and eighth rib are seven and eight on the list nine and a half and 9.1 inches the correct answer for number five is ulna which is your inner lower arm oh okay at 11.1 average
Starting point is 01:32:14 inches dang the ulna the ulna that's where i was like no way is this is this bone guy that much of a bone guy i can only bone so much ulna olna sounds like it'd be your great grandma's name yeah oh that's olna she's not really with come on can we bring over papa and olna sure that was a pleasant surprise that was that i i can't believe how close that was dude that was fun i this is what i think think Brad and I are very good at knowing some things about a lot of stuff. Yeah. Not an expert on anything.
Starting point is 01:32:49 Get me on a game show. We ask a lot of general questions. I might do. All right. And that was one of the ones that was like, Jake's going to do better at this than me. You know, like I'm more of a science guy.
Starting point is 01:32:58 Yeah. Yeah. You're more of an English guy. Okay. Yeah, I think so. Better than me. I hope that's true.
Starting point is 01:33:03 I hope I have something better than you. I don't know. Certainly not bones. Should I try to find an English one for you?

Starting point is 01:51:20 You have to ask questions all at the same time. Let's read them at the same time. I'll do one headphone for each of you guys. A wealthy family lived in a big circular house. They had a maid, a butler, and a gardener. What disappears is... The parents were going to a party. Say its name. So they tucked the younger kids into bed and kissed them goodnight and said goodbye.
Starting point is 01:51:39 Yours is so short. I know. I'm saying it over again. I think I have time. And kissed the older kids goodnight. When the parents came home, all the kids were gone. They had been kidnapped. You want me to start over so that you can actually hear it?
Starting point is 01:51:49 Timons is silence. Yep. How's that for Big Bone? Sorry. A wealthy family lived in a big circular house. They had a maid, a butler, and a gardener. The parents were going to a party, so they tucked the younger kids into bed and kissed them goodnight and said goodbye and
Starting point is 01:52:08 kissed the older kids goodnight. When the parents came home, all the kids were gone. They had been kidnapped. The authorities asked the butler, maid, and gardener what they were doing at the time of the kidnapping. The butler said he was organizing the library. The maid said she was dusting the corners, and the
Starting point is 01:52:24 gardener said he was watering the plants. There's no corners. Circular house. That's stupid! That's too easy! That was like chapter one of Technopedia Brown. That was a simple one. Like every criminal, you made one mistake. It's the corners that got you!
Starting point is 01:52:40 Alright, here's the next one. A farmer went to a market and bought a wolf, a goat, and a cabbage. On his way home, the farmer came to the bank of a river and rented a boat. But crossing the river by, do you know it? Yeah, I've done this before. Like, you know, the wolf and the chicken can't go over in the canoe together, but the chicken's going to eat the cabbage. They can't go over together.
Starting point is 01:52:55 How do you get them across the river? Oh, okay. This is why Jake probably should have been the one finding the riddles. Yeah, that's my bad.
