All right, let's take you guys into what just happened before we started rolling.
I complimented Jake's cozy sweatshirt. I said, that looks like a very comfortable shirt.
I said, yeah, it's so cozy. Not wearing an undershirt.
Because so many hoodies are like this, where they're so cozy on the inside. This material
is so soft. Why would I want to put a shirt between that and this, or between that and my skin?
The only thing I'm worried about is i think
sweatshirts have only so many wash cycles before they get pilly and oh that is not something i've
ever thought about you don't worry about the pills i've never noticed it do you ever get pills uh
maybe i don't know they're not on my radar really you know it's like once you buy a green truck then
you start seeing green trucks now that you pointed out maybe i'll see pills everywhere here's my pills yeah yeah i don't know i don't
know if i have pills i because that's why i would i would worry about like because you're
dirtying it up quicker now you're gonna have to wash that bad boy i think i would how often do
you do sometimes not wash your hoodies if there's like a shirt between you like oh i didn't really
wear it yeah there's something about that yeah you every every wash, every wash every time. No, I guess it depends.
I guess you're right.
Yeah.
Cause this is like, my armpits are touching the material.
Like I have to wash it.
Right.
Oh yeah.
Whereas like if you're in a hoodie, you're not usually sweating very much because it's
colder outside by, by de facto.
Is that what it is?
Is that what de facto means?
If so facto.
Yeah.
I will be, it's, it's very much, uh, summer still and I'm wearing this. So I will have to, I will be. It's it's very much summer still.
And I'm wearing this.
So I will have to.
I will be sweating in this today.
But Rachel got it for me for my birthday.
It looks really nice.
The hood specifically looks great.
I don't know what to tell you.
Just just besides me and me in a white costume with a white hood up and it's something over
the top of it.
What's that remind you of?
A little sneak preview of something later.
Yeah. We specifically recorded, we were recording this episode after the Chiefs game.
Yep.
So that we can tell you guys all about our experience and how much barbecue sauce went
up my nose. So roll it. Uh-oh. Ooh, I think this tight beat means that it's going down with some random thoughts and white
meat too.
Midwest best friends eating fast food on repeat.
So come along.
Let's have some fun and go ahead.
Get on your feet because this is the Ghost Rubs Podcast.
Ghost Rubs Podcast.
Everybody morning we're taking ground.
Ghost Rubs Podcast.
Ghost Rubs Podcast. At first I thought you were making like a KKK joke and I was like, I don't know about this.
No, I was not.
Then I was like, oh, I see.
Yes, it is Friday morning.
Normally record on Wednesdays for the Monday episode, but we're like, we got to, we got to get people, you know, a timely episode of this chief's experience because we were excited
about it it felt like the fans were excited about it so we got to tell them all about it yeah there
was so much buy-in it seemed like from just what i could tell from my instagram story and the
facebook group i mean immediately i i like we're going to the game whatever and everyone's like no
car service i mean i got 50 replies no car service i was like man the ghosties are so like locked in
everything so yeah uh that was no car service no No car service. Yeah. That was a, that was the first and only bummer of the entire,
no, I'm just kidding. It was great. But I should have wrote down. Cause we, by the end of the
night we did, we labeled our mistakes. Yes. I think we had three major mistakes, maybe four.
Let's, let's, let's outline. Let's, let's just go chronological real quick.
Yeah. We're really, we're creating a great YouTube video right now. Yes. So in this video,
we're going to tell you our three mistakes we made and how you can do better
for next time. Yeah. Uh, yeah. Well just, let's just go back to the beginning of the day because
I was, I woke up, my shirt was pilly. Here I was, I had pills all over. It's like a Kesha concert
in here. Um, I, uh, yeah. That's what they call it.
A pillow.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Cause it gets really,
I,
I was just being honest with the ghosties.
I was so like overly worried about what I'm supposed to wear.
Like three days in advance.
I kept being like,
do you know what we're supposed to wear to this thing?
Because we were supposed to,
uh,
do this event.
Like these,
these,
you know,
glorified VBS games, these like, these you know glorified vbs games these like uh like
relay race silly games that's a great way of putting it because these are not canica games
that that would that is uh no that's too high up no they were just like hey let's get a little
goofy and messy and you know it's fine because we're goofy but it was like but also right when
you get there be they call it be show ready
because we're going to take some pictures on the red carpet.
Yeah, it was the night before the game
and we hadn't heard anything.
We finally get an email 1130 at night
and it says to show up.
Oh, as far as attire?
Yeah.
Show ready.
Yeah.
I was like, well, what kind of show is it?
Right.
I'll be ready, but I don't know what the show is.
Yeah, I'm going back and
forth i'm like okay they're gonna take my and they said uh we're gonna take pictures for the
national media or something like that yeah 415 is red carpet national media pictures and by the end
of it i was like i need to just humble the heck out of myself and be like nobody in the national
media is gonna care one iota about a picture of me but like in my head i was like well should i
wear these shoes or these shoes if i wear those those shoes, those are my nice shoes. We're not getting paid for this event.
Then all of a sudden I'm losing money on, but I was like, I'm going to mess up these shoes in the
barbecue sauce event. It is funny how much you, how much thought you put it. I overanalyze it so
much. I really did. I was just, and like, I was talking to Catherine about it and she like,
to be fair, she was very entertained.
She wasn't just like, Brad, you're being ridiculous.
Rachel was probably 10 p.m. She's like, you know what you're wearing tomorrow?
Yeah.
And I was like, oh, no.
She's like, well, you, Brad, talked about it.
And I was like, not really.
She's like, you guys are such boys.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Meanwhile, I didn't know you were freaking out over here.
I wasn't freaking out, but I was just analyzing.
Because I was like, is this the right move?
And then finally, I was like, I'm not going to try to be somebody I'm not. I'm just going to be Brad Ellis. And that's,
that's fine. Like I'm not, I don't think I'm going to like change the world if I'm wearing some,
like I'll look like an idiot if I'm trying to be too cool or whatever. So I just was like,
I'm just going to wear a cheese polo and from your closet. Nope. When bought it,
when bought it from a rally house rally house. Yeah. Free sponsor alert
of the, of the day. But yeah, went and bought it yesterday. Cause I didn't have, I don't have any
chiefs polos. I don't have any, like, like I said, the only like real chiefs gear I have is like
winter gear. And it was 97 degrees on my truck thermometer yesterday. And so I was like, I guess
I got to go buy something so um anyway yeah so so
no car service so we're driving ourselves supposed to be there at 3 45 we leave at three which is
great oh meanwhile on uh my side just go chronologically i have not thought about what
i'm gonna wear really i'm like i think i'll just shorts in a t-shirt whatever i i leave trace house
because we did correct opinions yesterday at like 2 1515 when I leave there I get an email from
a brand we're trying to work with
Friday Pickleball and they're like hey the video's actually not
approved even though you did
exactly what we said
you were allowed to do
it's not no can do I'm like well tomorrow's Friday
we gotta knock this out so I'm running home
like I gotta eat lunch at some point I'm gonna do this
I gotta get this video footage to time it so I'm
just like recording stuff on my phone really quickly i'm sending it to time you
just hear me like heavy breathing into the microphone um and just throw on a dante hall
jersey and bring her a mahomes shirt and then run to chipotle and go to your house yeah it's chaos
i i had no idea you never i was you hit it well once you got
to my house i was sweating and that was last time i sweat all day which is nice that's good yeah
because it was really nice like moisture in general i was done with it yeah yeah after that
point there was nothing yeah liquid on me at all the rest of the day um okay good to know yeah i
mean genuinely from 2 to 3 p.m was nuts call you larry because you were cool as a cucumber by the
time you got to me.
Also, wouldn't it be nice if I could just like, oh, pull right into my driveway?
Oh, cool.
I got to bring stuff to the game.
I got to do this.
Whatever.
No, I got to.
I had to park over here again, the side of the street.
Well, there's no room.
So I had to move the road closed sign again.
I run these straight.
Oh, a little sneak preview.
This is a YouTube video.
I run this project now.
I'm going to tell you guys that story later.
I'm in charge now. I'm excited. Okay. But yeah, I was moving the signs. is a youtube video i run this project now i'm going to tell you guys that story later oh i'm
in charge now oh i i'm excited okay but yeah i was moving the signs and i was like of course
i gotta run in and run out and i forgot something yeah oh anyway um no car service drive ourselves
drive ourselves and to be fair the chief says that's a small company it's a small organization
i'm not surprised they couldn't figure out a car for us. It does make sense.
Or didn't want to spend the money on it.
Yeah, right.
Most of the people that we were with got flown over from the UK,
but they're like, you know, we're having a hard time finding a car service.
Brad's got a truck.
Yeah, logistically, I don't know if you guys can figure it out.
Sean E., that's like 20 minutes away from the stadium.
I don't know.
I mean, we already got all these guys hotels for the week and multiple flights.
So a car would just be too much.
And we gave him all jerseys and, you know, told him exactly what to wear.
Probably got him a parking pass that works.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So tell him about.
So we're already running a little bit late.
There's some traffic getting in or we're running on time, I think, is what I would say.
Yeah.
I would say for every bit of Brad's kind of anxiety about what he's going to wear. I wanted to really nail because I was the
main person getting the emails to us. I was like, I want to know what we need to do when we get in
there. And so I'm really pouring over the information the night before, like the parking.
And I think I know what to do, but I'm just worried already. Like I'm looking at what the
parking pass they sent me and what they're saying in an email of like, yeah, you'll be able to
bypass all the traffic you get right in. And I'm looking at my parking pass. I me and what they're saying in an email of like yeah you'll be able to bypass all the traffic you get right in and i'm looking at my parking pass i'm like this looks like any
other parking pass it doesn't say special access it doesn't say these guys are local influencers
you know there's it just says red parking pass i think it literally had the word general parking
red is like not as high as you can go there There's gold. There's platinum. We're red. There's no way red's above gold.
Gold is definitely better.
And I said that to Brad.
I was like, here, give the,
because yeah, I'm skipping ahead.
But I was already worried
that the parking could be an issue.
And we went in with the plan.
We knew what we had to do.
We get to the stadium and it says,
authorized access lane.
Like, well, we have one piece of like information that says we could do that.
Brad's like, I'll find a gap.
Yeah.
And he does.
Yeah.
You just like, okay, that cone looks a little bit farther away than the other cones are.
Let's just swerve in there.
And then Brad's driving.
So I hand him my phone.
I'm like, hey, just heads up.
I don't think there's anything special in this parking pass, but you can hand it to
her.
Brad hands it to her.
She goes, are you guys working? What are you guys working? are you guys working you guys working the game and i go no no well
i was like kinda yeah we're part of the world's largest tailgate and she goes you're in the wrong
lane go ahead go ahead yeah even scan it or look at it yeah she didn't scan it that was funny just
go just get out of here opening night uh and so if you know
about the chiefs like they are like famous for tailgating beforehand like it's a big thing so
there was tons of people already there like like most of the people that were going the game were
probably already there by 3 30 when we got there it felt yeah i want to say like i think a lot of
people were like hey let's just call off work and like show up at like noon because i think when the
gates opened they were there yeah so we there. We're trying to find parking lot
Red D. We are
Red D.
I'm like, I'm looking
at the map. This is where we need to be. I'm like, all right, pull in here.
Oh, there's that. They closed it down.
Okay, we'll go to the next one.
All right, looks like the cones opened up.
Oh, there's another. There's chains, though.
The chain fence thing.
Red D is not ready for us. Oh, it's another. There's chains though. The chain fence thing. Okay. So red D is not ready for us.
Nope.
No.
Oh, it's red C.
Okay.
I guess we'll go C.
We'll walk a little bit.
And then all of a sudden we're at red A.
Red B, red A.
Okay.
We're at a different stadium now.
Yeah.
We are about as far away from where we're supposed to go as possible.
I mean, probably a 15 minuteminute walk, if not more.
And we're already cutting it close
on time. We're running late, and we've brought
it, you know, we think these
games might get messy, so we got
an extra set of clothes in the car. We know
there's going to be another walk back to the car.
We want to be close.
Then we pull in.
These people, granted, they are
hourly high school workers, but they don't know what they're talking about.
You know, they're misguiding us the wrong direction.
We pull in one area and then we get stuck.
The guy's like, you gotta park here.
We're like, we don't want to park here.
And so then I hop out of the car and just start raising like things like caution tape
essentially that was in our way.
I'm raising up some other just pedestrian.
It's just like there.
She's helping out.
Yeah.
She's raising caution tape with us.
She's like, oh, you got to lift the cone with the tape.
That's how you get under it.
Great.
Right.
Yeah.
Lift it up.
Let's do this thing.
Cone eyes.
So we're literally, yeah, just like going past this like barrier to the next parking
lot, which was still just red B.
We're not even close at this point.
And then I asked some guy who seemed like he knew what he was talking about.
He's like, no, he's go down here.
That's how you get to red D whatever. Long story short,
red D was a, um, amalgam. Yeah. Next thing you know, we're not even on the grounds of Arrowhead
anymore. We're back outside. We needed to get a running start at it again. We're back in the
woods. We're back on like an outer highway road. And yeah, we got a running start at it. And that
didn't work either. We're talking to different people. Eventually we're like, let's just go illegally.
Yeah, this time it was like,
we're not making the mistake
of going all the way back to Red D.
We're trying to find one of these other parking areas
and just tell people specifically,
hey, we need to be in this pavilion.
We're working on this event.
One woman was like, no, you can't go in here.
You don't have parking lot F access.
And so then we see this other gravel lot.
And I was like like that doesn't
look super regulated gravel seems chill yeah like gravel there's no like lines even so it's like
i don't know let's see if there's anywhere in there and so we pull in their uh lot es it said
es which was you know extra special is what we called it who knows um and we're and it seems
like it's completely full of very nice cars right by the
stadium i was like i don't know uh and then we find like one spot that was like that seems like
it could fit us it's like it's like three-fourths of a spot yeah we got in and i got a small little
car so i can just maneuver in there really easily uh we get in there but we're still a little bit
worried we're gonna get towed at this point yeah every car has like things hanging from their mirror
that it's a tag that says ES on it.
We're the one car without one. No problem.
No problem. I mean, what do you do?
I mean, if you can't join them,
you ride it in.
Right? If you're not a part of the club
and want to join them, ride it.
We're RFK fans. We're going to ride in our boat.
You know, we're going to... No, I don't...
Park there.
I don't know how to do it. How you do that was more like a um i don't have that dialed in you haven't practiced that in your room i don't
uh so anyway we wrote in es on my air freshener so i'm gonna keep that air freshener up there
for a while just good memories i wrote es and i don't know what I wrote. Oh, I wrote the date underneath
it. And then I just signed somebody's
signature underneath it. Like, maybe
this looks legit. You know,
somebody's like, well, this looks kind of
homemade. It's a day of. It's a day of past.
Yeah, I put that on my Instagram story and
everyone's like, oh, this is where the players and their wives
park. That's fine.
Us too. Players, their wives and contestants
park. There were a few cars in
there that was i was suspect were not there was a honda crv how many nfl players wives were driving
a honda crv and when we came back uh to return some items to the car uh there were people
tailgating in there also true only one crew like three dudes but still they were tailgating yeah
but shooty andrew shooty who we
got to see last night he works for the chiefs ghost he came to ghost owners getaway in florida
goldshores he uh he confirmed that that's where players in their wives park and also claimed that
that's where taylor swift parks and i was like that's still a little bit for the stadium how
does she get in he's like i think she just walks it's good for her how much do you believe i i
still like i think swift out of all people,
would, like, get dropped off at the door.
Right?
I really, I really think so.
I think she's there as close to the stadium as possible.
She might drive into it.
Governor Laura Kelly from Kansas
getting, like, dropped off at the door
of the Allen Fieldhouse KU basketball game
for, like, a KUK state.
Like, a pretty low profile. And she had
like five security detail with her, like walking her in. Like if she's getting that kind of
treatment for a Kansas governor, I think Taylor Swift is probably getting some pretty private
access. Should he had some other interesting Taylor Swift stuff to say for the, for the girls
listening to this football podcast, apparently today, um, he said, uh, last season, the chiefs
would always put like
multiple uh undercover cops like in her suite next to her suite oh he said three rows worth
didn't he is that what it was yeah i heard and eventually taylor swift was like hey we don't
need to do all this like i just want to enjoy the game like any other fan and so they told her they
removed the undercover cops he's like but we still keep some in there around her um and another cool
thing was apparently
she was in the suite
directly below us.
So, I mean,
we couldn't see her anything,
but technically
we were like within
80 feet of Taylor Swift
last night.
Is that what that aura was?
Is that what that was?
I caught a vibe
at one point.
Is that what it is?
I felt major gas.
Major gas?
That's not how
you word it, I think.
Tymon,
how do you do, Jinzy?
I don't, I'm not even sure.
Well, the aura, yes.
She has so much aura.
Yeah, I just felt it.
I was like, like when we were out,
like in the concession stand area,
I was like, I don't know.
I feel like a normal person.
And then all of a sudden I wasn't,
I wouldn't call it levitating,
but kind of, yeah,
like just a little bit of like buoyancy,
like just a little bit tough to keep your feet on the ground.
So maybe that's what that was.
That was probably it.
Yeah.
She was down there.
I felt it.
I felt it.
So we were so close.
That is kind of fun to think about.
Like who's below us.
Like if a bomb.
Yeah.
I was thinking about it.
Yeah.
If it killed her, it probably killed us too.
Or it was like above us and kind of like some wreckage, like knocked us into her suite. I would save her. We rescue her. Yeah. Yeah. Not because she's Taylor
Swift, just because I'm a good human. Yep. Like I don't care if she's Taylor Swift or Donna Kelsey,
or I was going to say, I'll rescue Donna. You rescue Taylor. I think that makes the most sense.
We saw Donna Kelsey pregame taller than you think. Yeah, she is a big girl. Yeah. I'm talking like
pushing six foot. for sure i think
she said i think she's like your size yeah like if we went up to like we did oklahoma drill me
and donna kelsey i might lose i think if you if i if you were each wearing the same clothes and i
only got to see you from behind i'd like take your pick it's kind of like dwight when he has all those
disguises in the office of people turns around if i had. If I had a Donna Kelsey jersey on or a Donna Kelsey wig, I'd turn around.
It's like, whoa, how'd you do that?
Yeah.
She should be playing somewhere.
I could body double as Donna.
You'd play for the Trailblazers.
Look like an athlete.
Trailblazers of all teams.
So anyway, park, get there, walk into the pavilion.
It was funny.
We were even talking to this our
contact uh tipa is her name and she's like uh just get when you get there well we'll be so excited
that you're finally here she's like not like that like we're not like we'll be waiting on you guys
waiting on you guys but not like in a bad way just like they they are physically they are just
they're waiting for you guys right and uh that was fun you made the point you're like it's fun to have people know our names and we probably instantly three
different people hey you're jacob brad come right here hey jacob brad we need you over here hey get
your t-shirts hey jacob brad we're gonna get a picture right here it's like this is cool we're
just getting tugged away is that how you feel on tour most of the time or is it like no one knows
my name on tour it's small they say hey where's your badge what are you doing here oh sorry i'm
one of the guys i've been here three times already today i thought you knew me sorry we talked about your kids earlier man i don't know
i'm the guy i oh headphones on oh yeah yeah yeah it's me now yeah um okay so this was different
for you too yeah i didn't know i love the ville too we called the pavilion the ville the ville
dude was nice we you were it cracked me up and maybe it wasn't like maybe
it was just an act that you were doing but like as we were walking in like it's like you're like
we need to get to the pavilion and the people even confirm like that's the pavilion but it
said on the outside like you know chapel chapel hunt family chapel or something and you're like
this is a chapel this isn't the pavilion and then uh you know this guy's like hey yeah we're in here
oh chapel's also the pavilion you know and're walking in, you're like, okay, pavilion.
I feel like you use the pavilion word so many times.
I think it's just how I talk.
I've been with Rachel for three years now.
I think I just talk different.
Nicknamed it the ville.
Pavilion is nice.
It was fun.
Yeah, we walk in.
My stress over the red carpet was, as predicted, so dumb.
I have a picture.
So two things to say.
One, I'm going to text you guys a picture of Brad that I got emailed on the red carpet
on the screen right now.
Two, you'll notice there is no picture of me.
I'm sending because it didn't make the cut.
What?
I don't know what happened.
Did we get one?
We took one together.
Yes, there's one of us together.
Really?
I don't have that.
But yeah, I thought I showed the solo of you. they didn't like the goofiness yeah i was going like youtube
thumbnail arms out this is crazy open mouth smile yeah and it didn't didn't get emailed so really
just you just you in the pockets that's weird was there only one of me yeah okay one of you
one of us together. Interesting.
And then all the other people.
Dante Hall was like right before us, though.
That's kind of fun.
Yeah.
So Dante Hall, for all those who don't know, is a Chiefs legend.
Those girls, the flag football girls, didn't know who he was.
Yeah.
The UK guys.
What did he say?
He goes, who's that?
Who's the Giza catching the balls?
And I was like, oh, that's like, he was like a really good Chiefs player
like 20 years ago.
Yeah, I was trying to remember exactly what it was.
So anyway, okay.
So we're chronologically.
We get to the Ville.
We're in the Ville.
We're hanging out.
We're having a good time.
We see Rob Riggle.
We see Donna Kelsey.
We're hanging out.
There's burgers.
Not good ranchers though.
What a bummer that is.
I wish they were good ranchers. If they were good ranchers, that'd Oh, what a bummer that is. I wish they were good ranchers.
If they were good ranchers, that'd be awesome.
Because, you know...
What?
Good ranchers doesn't have any antibiotics or hormones in any of their meat.
Well, surely they, like, vaccinate their...
That's a funny thing to say.
No antibiotics or hormones?
Well, surely they make up for it with vaccinations.
Yeah, surely they just inject it with a bunch of other things, right?
Nope, that's the thing.
Not even seed oils.
No?
Seed oils are...
And that's not a ticking time bomb.
That is a no, no, no noise.
Hey, Bo, get that out of your mouth.
Those are bad.
Who's in charge?
Good Ranchers is in charge.
Yeah.
The lack of seed oils is in charge.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah.
I think the last six times I've done a Good Ranchers ad, it started off very weird every time.
I'm going to try to be better.
Okay.
I will try to be better.

So we are in the pavilion.
We're hanging out.
We're in the ville.
You know, rubbing elbows with everybody.
I had my first Coke Zero of the day at this point.
And that was probably about as expensive
as one of those add-ons for Good Ranchers for the next four years, right?
It was.
Tax-free.
Oh, can we just talk about, real quick, sidebar, the difference between a cold can and a cold bottle?
Can wins every time.
By 30.
30 times over.
Why is that?
Is it the material? Is it the, is it the material?
Is it the way you sip?
Yep.
I don't know.
It's all, it's so crispy out of a can.
I think it's both because I think like they have those aluminum bottles for beer and stuff.
Oh yeah.
I don't get excited about that.
Really?
And maybe it's because it's beer, but I, I, it's just like, yeah, there's something about
like the aluminum cans that just gets you going.
And it's good portion control, too.
It's like, I don't need 20 ounces of soda right now.
16, 12?
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
Sweet spot.
It just feels right.
It's free.
And it's free.
So, yeah.
And it just feels colder for longer.
And, oh, it was fun.
It was awesome.
So, yeah, we had some Coke Zero.
Met a few people.
Ready to go.
And they're like, all right, we need all of our talent, you know, heading out.
Follow me.
I was like, all right, it's us.
Of course, I'm so used to this.
You know my name.
Yeah, let's do this.
And so, yeah, it felt like most of the people that we were doing it with,
it was gold team versus red team.
Jake was gold.
I was red.
So we were pitted against each other.
We stopped talking to each other.
We were like, hey, we should probably.
Hey, this is a big deal.
Yeah. We cussed each other out in the bathroom real quick and then we're like it's time to go um but i felt like most of the other people were from uk yeah
okay yeah yeah uh no kansas city mainly there was a lot of uk people but maybe not that were
competing in the thing yeah i think the the nfl uk is like its own entity and they brought in a lot of people to
this first game.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I don't know what they were up to.
They had a whole posse of people walking with them.
You got a posse,
bruv.
Uh,
but this guy on my team,
his name was,
um,
films,
forms,
forms,
golly with a Z.
Uh,
I made the mistake of calling him flips at one point.
I go, that's why they call you flips.
And he's like, it's form, bro.
Forms, bro.
Frick.
Just be the cool guy next time, Brad.
Just be quiet.
We were doing that flip cup thing.
That's why they call you flips.
That's a perfect nickname for you.
That's awesome.
It's forms, bro.
Okay.
Good to talk to you, man.
Also, this guy did not understand my sarcasm at one point um we're walking over there i don't know why i even asked
this because i don't have any follow-up if he says anything besides london but i was like what
part of the uk are you from london like if you would have said worcester i don't know where that
is oh interesting oh is that is that like known for-
Landlocked?
For its good milk or what?
London.
And I go, oh, I've heard of it.
I thought that was funny.
Like, of course.
And he's like, oh, really?
Yeah, yeah.
It's one of the biggest cities.
Yeah, it's huge.
Yeah, you really leaned into the Americans are dumb stereotype and he believed you.
I guess so. Yeah, Americans don huge. Yeah, you really leaned into the Americans are dumb stereotype, and he believed you. I guess so.
Yeah, Americans don't know much.
And then I tried to make up for it and be like,
yeah, I spent a week in London.
I loved it, man.
He's like, oh, really?
I was like, yeah.
He's like, that's probably why you've heard of it.
You remember it then, yeah?
I know.
But then he was asking me what I did.
I was kind of embarrassed.
Because I just did all the touristy things.
I'm like, Piccadilly And, uh, I don't know.
It's all those lions.
Uh, you know, big Ben.
Yeah.
That's pretty cool.
Saluted the guy, you know, took a picture in the phone booths.
Uh, I did a Shakespeare bike tour.
That's basically it.
Um, so we're walking to, uh, uh where these games so what we got invited to i
can't remember how much we've communicated this but they're like the tailgate games there's like
four games that we're going to be playing and i'm trying to be just the most people pleaser
role follower i'm on trinity's tail i'm right there with her you were i didn't miss a step at
one point i was talking to flip slash forums facts slash forums and uh yeah i was like yeah it's me
and my friend.
And I was like, oh, the guy's way up there.
You were a good, you know, 40 steps ahead of us.
Such a people pleaser.
Didn't want to let her down.
That was a mistake.
Why is that? This is a mistake.
One mistake.
One B for me of the night was being so readily available to play this first game because Erica Priscilla,
she got out of it because she was lagging back behind in the crew.
So we get,
we show up to like,
they've,
they've kind of fenced off this area,
very tiny spot.
We should have had more space,
but I had,
so fans are kind of around this gated area that are tailgating.
They're here to watch this big production.
They got cameras there.
They got lights and they got a bunch of people in jerseys that are like all the producers
everyone's on headsets and immediately you could tell this is chaos because as soon as i get there
i'm the first one they're like hey are you competing all right we need you right now we're
live in 90 seconds we need you right now live in 90 seconds yeah i was like oh wow we're doing this
i mean we have no prep we have no instruction just like we're live in 90 seconds i was like wow this
is unorganized and so they're like all right first one we're live in 90 seconds. I was like, wow, this is unorganized. And so they're like, all right, first one we're doing, barbecue sauce relay.
So let's get red team.
Let's get gold team.
And I was like, man, this is the one I really did not want to do.
And it was described to us.
Sorry, go ahead.
I'm just, but it was described to us as like, yeah, this obstacle course where you'd be
holding barbecue sauce, I think.
And then you dump it in, you know, and obviously you're going to lose some barbecue sauce along the way and whoever
like whoever's team has the most barbecue sauce at the end wins uh a little bit tougher than that
not not quite not quite the exact same thing this was uh you know in the moment i was a good sport
about everything but having slept on it now thinking
about like people were in charge of coming up with these games we how many times in our lives
have we been in charge of people's experience coming up with games coming up with the fun
coming up with something that's going to look good on camera this was a terrible idea because
it's hot it's 97 degrees the game is put put a wobbly triple XL football helmet on your head with a cup, like a cup
attached to the top of it.
And then you're going to have a barbecue sauce filled to the brim on top of that cup.
And then you have to bunny hop through a ladder, like a ladder drill on the ground and then
go through an obstacle course and then dump it.
And immediately. So, yes, we did get to wear some painters, like smocks.
Yeah, you look like in Willy Wonka and Charlie and the Charlie Factory.
They go to that one room where they have to wear all white.
The TV room? Is that what it is?
Maybe so, yeah. Mike TV.
Yeah, it's an old memory.
But, well, like I said, 97 degrees, pretty warm in the suit.
Then you throw the helmet on.
I mean, it's just so hot.
But, hey, we're starting in 90 seconds, right?
90 seconds, though.
We're about to go.
Get it on.
Get it on.
You look like, yeah, you're in a hazmat suit, essentially.
Yeah.
A white hazmat.
Yeah.
We got a 2319.
Hilarious.
And it does not start in 90 seconds.
It does not start in five minutes.
The sauna lasts about nine or ten minutes.
Well, Forms is freaking out. He's like, hey, my my zip i broke my zip we got any more of these things i got i got my zip broken his zip is rubbish yeah yeah uh so yeah i mean
we're just baking we're just uh just a little sweatsuit and then we get going and poor megan
had it worse than we did because meat so they're like on our whistle
on our whistle we got all these fans behind us you know a couple of class clowns they're like go
go three two one go and they're like fake whistling one time they actually get both of
them just go on the fake whistle so megat starts hopping and they're like no no we didn't say go
we didn't say go she's got barbecue sauce all over her face.
And they're like, all right, hold, hold.
And then we hold for another three minutes,
and it's just seeping there while she's just waiting to go.
And this girl is just there because her sister-in-law works for the Chiefs.
I think she was like late edition, like, hey, you got to come do this, please.
So you had already talked to her and gotten to know her.
When I was talking to her afterwards, I was like, so Megan, how'd you get into this brad goes little nepotism little nepotism
i thought you were joking i was like oh is your last name hunt she's like my last name isn't hunt
but my sister-in-law i was like oh brad brad knows okay it was her and uh nile the bronze medalist
uh uk guy i think they both like yeah jumped the gun and had all this stuff all over of so that was
worse but basically it's
just inevitable like you have to you have to bounce with full barbecue sauce and so yeah my
first bounce it's just all over my face and i noticed like oh there's like there's meat in here
not that that's a big issue what but it reminds me of like you know the soap with the with the
beads meat like your little chunks really yeah yeah oh wow um yeah i wasn't nervous from
like an allergy perspective but just yeah like the soap which is like it's a worse version of
the soap if i'm gonna have barbecue sauce on my face in my mouth i don't want right i don't want
little beads in there you're exfoliated by some pork right now yeah yeah it's so uh it was just
not and not really even fun in the moment doing it just because it's just
barbecue is everywhere it's all over my shirt i get down to my shoes look like i threw up all
over myself because there's just brown splatter orange splatter all over my shoes yeah our shoes
are ruined we they didn't protect those and um i did have a like a odell like one-handed catch
yep which i talked to my friends and they said it did not get televised. That part
was not on camera, but that's all right. Yeah. That was, yeah. The idea was like, yeah,
bunny hop, go slalom through these things, which an obstacle course that has two obstacles is funny
by itself. Like just, just like, like at least do the bunny hop at the end to make it to where
you have some left. Like, I don't know. It's just a funny, it was just whatever. I mean,
it's easy to critique other people.
I'm sure it's,
they got a lot of stuff going on,
but like,
but then at the very end,
you're supposed to be holding this football the whole time and throw the
football back.
And so this UK gymnast is the first one.
He's bronze medalist,
gymnast,
like an athlete.
He goes,
and then he chucks the football back to Jake.
And yeah,
that football is going straight towards the huge bucket of exfoliating
barbecue sauce.
And I think if you didn't catch that ball, because I was one of the ones filling up the...
Yeah, you're a bucket pourer.
I was cup boy.
Cup bearer.
And so I was cup bearing for my team.
And I think if you didn't catch that ball, that ball was almost for sure going into this bucket.
Yeah.
And so you saved the day there.
So yeah, it was just a bummer to start the day that way. We're already so hot and so you you saved the day there uh so yeah it was just a bummer to start the day
that way we're already so hot and so sweaty and now i have barbecue sauce all over me um as i'm
starting to take stuff off i like i take a big like inhale and then it's on my nose oh and that
was so miserable i mean i couldn't get out there fast but my hands are dirty so i'm just like
trying to like blow snot rockets without much that I can use.
And it was just, they had towels to be fair.
They were, uh, the size, they were the size of a piece of paper.
Um, yeah, just to be completely honest, it was not fun.
The starting the day like that, just covered in sauce.
I will say, I think you hit it.
Well, I didn't, I didn't feel like you were like miserable.
I didn't know anything about the nose. Like, yeah, it's just like, all right, I will play, I think you hit it well. I didn't feel like you were miserable. I didn't know anything about the nose.
Yeah, I was just like, all right, I will play long for this.
But man, why did they do this?
Yeah, and they just asked for volunteers for the barbecue sauce game.
And I was like, I don't think I'm the best obstacle course guy for my team.
And so I was like, you go ahead, let somebody else do it.
And I'm glad I did for multiple reasons.
Yeah.
You still got some splatter on the joggers though.
I got a ton.
I was very messy, but at least I was not as sweaty and hot.
Like, yeah.
Didn't have any on your face, which is nice.
Right.
Yeah.
So, so that was, that was game number one.
Yeah.
Set the precedent well.
And it was just, yeah.
Like you said, anytime you've done production stuff like this it's a little bit
chaotic but i was surprised at how how many people there were there and how many people it seemed
like didn't know exactly what was going on it seemed very uh very scattered yeah very scattered
like i don't know at the end of the day even after being there for whatever we were 45 minutes or an
hour or whatever i don't know who was in charge yeah that's a good point i don't know who's in
charge or like who called the shots or like who, yeah, it was just, it was just
chaos. Yeah. And clearly they put a lot of money into this. They're flying people in NBC is involved.
They got agencies and everyone there is more famous than us. Right. Yeah. They paid them a
lot of money. Probably Rob Riggle, Heidi Gardner. I'm like, man, y'all could have put like a good
production team on this that could knock this out. That was a great point. So Heidi Gardner,
SNL girl on a bunch of commercials right now, like not saying she's famous by any means, but I bet if
you Googled her right now, you'd be like, Oh, I recognize her. Yeah. Um, she's famous for Kansas
city. We have a pretty low standard for famous. Uh, and so, but this, this guy, this production
guy, we'll call him producer, uh, came up to a different girl in our group and was like, all
right, Heidi Gardner, come on with me. And she's like,
I'm not Heidi Gardner.
I'm black.
And it was just one of those like hilarious,
like we don't have that many celebrities.
So Heidi Gardner is like one of them.
So you should probably know who that is.
If you're working this event as the,
as the main guy or whatever.
So,
yeah,
then we did a few other events.
What was it?
The,
they were supposed to do this burger preparing competition,
like scrap the burger, scrap the burger.
No more burger.
And they had it all right there, ready to go and everything.
Oh, yeah.
The burgers are done.
You're good.
All the toppings.
Yeah, look good.
Yeah, you joked like,
you're not going to get a burger right now.
Brad, you don't think you'll just make one yourself, do you?
I'm thinking about it.
Free burger.
And what was the other?
What was the second one?
It was the dumb football toss one. That's right. It was like, all right, you second one? It was the dumb football toss one.
That's right.
It was like, all right, you can get...
It was blindfolded football toss.
It was like these female flag football players are throwing.
They each get a coach who guides them.
Brad was the coach.
Like, all right, left, right, up, down.
But they were like, all right,
these three targets are worth one, two, or three points.
Or you could throw to Dante Hall,
the Chiefs' Ring of Honor wide receiver,
and he is able to move around and catch it.
It's like, why would you not just do that?
Well, then all of a sudden, no, it was like,
they explained the one, two, three points thing,
and then they're like, you'll be blindfolded,
so you coach where to throw it.
And then all of a sudden, they're like,
actually, the team captain is going to be the one
throwing in the rings, and you just throw to Dante Hall.
I was like, and I'm supposed to coach her
on how to throw straight? Like a 15- throw it. I bet she can knock it out. It's so
literally the entire time. I was just like, that's good. You're perfect. Keep doing that. Keep
throwing. You're on a good pay. Oh, that's good. Good. A little short on that one. That's good.
Good job. Oh, that was a little too. He still caught it. So I guess good. It doesn't matter.
Oh, he's like a good, like he can catch catch but like that's his whole thing that he does okay yeah he caught punts kicks for a year okay
good good perfect you're doing great keep going good it's like what do you want me to do here
now it's our team's turn our team captain 30 minutes in still hasn't showed up yet he's not
here so they're like all right funny Marco you're gonna throw for the gold team too yeah it was just
so just just chaos.
It was funny.
Yeah, it was just like, hey, I'm glad to be here.
This is fun, but this is also just so silly.
We heard from my parents, other people watching,
that you did make it on.
I don't know how much I made it on,
but they did interview you.
They interviewed me after the barbecue competition.
They're like, clearly you're the heart and soul
of this competition.
What was your strategy on this thing?
And I was like, I think I said some stupid thing. I was trying They're like, clearly you're the heart and soul of this competition. Like, what was your strategy on this thing? And I was like, uh, I think I said some stupid thing.
I was trying to be like, I didn't want to be like the annoying guy. It's like so stupid,
you know, but like, like trying to, well, apparently we have enough barbecue sauce.
Here's how we do it. Uh, no, I was just like, I don't know. I said something about like,
you know, I've never been much for speed. So I'm more about consistency in the tourist run
won this race or something like that. And who was your, who is your NFL like you know i've never been much for speed so i'm more about consistency in the tortoise run that won this race or something like that who was your who is your nfl you know
inspiration for this i'm like of course we're at the chiefs game i'm gonna say or what what nfl
coach was your inspiration i'm like andy reed why would i say anything other than a chiefs coach
right now yeah what do you want me to say dude so anyway it was a apparently those guys i i don't i
didn't i didn't get to see any of the broadcast, obviously.
But those guys, people were like, they didn't do a great job either.
And that was most of the feedback I got from people who watch.
Like, how was it?
We're on there.
They would say my mom actually kind of savage.
I said I said, did did my one hit and catch make it or this or this?
I like three other things that were like noteworthy.
And she was like, no, that would have been too good of entertainment.
I guess it was just
not well done.
I wonder how many people,
non-ghosties, watched it.
How many non-ghosties were tuned into that?
I'm going to send a TIPA follow-up
text today. Thanks for everything. And I screen-recorded
our Facebook page. It's like, look how much
engagement we're getting. People are fired up that we're a part
of this. Hopefully there'll be more.
Oh,
they were fun.
Atipa,
salt of the earth.
Just so sweet.
She's great.
And then Trinity,
other point of contact,
Brad found out that she's in charge of like influencer relations.
And yeah,
I,
hello,
that's us.
You want somebody to influence you?
Yeah.
She,
I,
what did I,
how did I describe it last night i was just like i i was
like the desperate the overzealous boyfriend we could do anything you need ever for you like like
sometimes it's like hey play it cool you know like yeah that's bigger than you are fake it till you
make it this one i was like we are we we live 20 minutes away from here we love the chiefs so much
we will say yes to anything you ask us to do.
Try and invite us to something we say no to.
Yeah, 100%. So anyway, she was hopefully receptive.

So anyway, back to the tailgate.
We're done.
What was the third game of Flip Cup?
Oh, Flip Cup.
Yeah.
Luckily, we're sheltered kids
like i asked jake last week i was like how many times you played flip cup in your life you're
like i think zero i was like yeah me too i double checked with the guy next to me how to do it
i was like which side do i do all these british guys didn't know how to do it either and so
i was like okay cool we're all just kind of you know doing this together is just a, just a very simple flip cup relay.
Just the games could have been so much more fun. Just take minutes to win at games that are proven
to be awesome. Yeah. And just change them a little bit to be chiefs games. Yeah. And get the crowd
into it. Yeah. Just so many things that were to play some music, like just enhance every aspect
of this. Let the crowd know what's happening. Like, right. In my head,
have a, have a megaphone, have a loud speaker. Like it was all quiet in my head. It was like
going to be an elevated surf, like a stage that we were going to be on. And there was going to be
people that had access to this free tailgate, you know, a hundred people or whatever, a thousand,
I don't know, whatever. And instead there was 50 people maybe watching us in this like secluded
part of the parking lot.
Not secluded, but like, yeah, not like main area or anything.
So it was, I think from what I understand,
it was way more intention to be like, uh, online, a live stream.
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So there'll be more years. It'll, it'll get better.
But yeah, so we're done with everything and we're just kind of standing around.
I'm still sticky, gross by the way. the way. And Brad kind of looks down.
He's like,
well, take some things with me.
Yeah.
You know, head out of here.
I think I'm going to take that football.
Yeah.
Because it's like
the official NFL football,
the Duke.
Yeah.
I was trying to describe it to Catherine.
She's like,
that's cool, I guess.
I was like, no, you don't.
Like, these are like pretty cool.
Like $120 balls.
Yeah.
And they've got barbecue sauce
and dirt all over them.
And Brad. Oh, yeah. He still has it. Yeah. And they've got barbecue sauce and dirt all over them. And Brad.
Oh, yeah.
He still has it.
Yeah.
Maybe I'll Catherine's like, you need to wash that off.
It's going to attract bugs.
I was like, maybe she's like, no, it will attract bugs.
It's going Jake's house.
So it's look at that.
It's game war game war football.
The Duke.
Look at that.
If you didn't know any better, that would look like it's played in the NFL.
Yeah.
But instead, it's just barbecue sauce and a little bit of Arrowhead tailgate dirt.
Yeah.
That is a good point, Catherine.
Thank you for the bug point.
Yeah.
I'll wash it off for you.
Anyway, it's got even a Chiefs logo on there and everything.
That's pretty nice.
Pretty cool.
So, yeah, Brad got one.
I was like, hey, let's see one over here.
Take a little Duke myself.
Take a little Duke.
I took some little foam footballs for the kids yeah another suves so that was fun we grab
our souvenirs we walk back and um we we put our stuff down uh we back to the truck back to the
es lot and uh we're getting dressed again that was the point where i took the selfie on my instagram
story where our shirts were off and it felt so good because that was when the cold front blows in.
So not only did I finally get out of my nasty barbecue sweaty shirt,
but you just get to feel the breeze for the first time.
The rain is coming in.
The storm is coming in, and I didn't care.
I feel like Lieutenant Dan on top of the boat.
I was like, bring it on.
I don't care.
And then we walked back into the stadium,
or walked back into the the ville and
everyone's telling us you got to check out the ford tailgate ford tailgate's pretty fun okay
we'll go to the ford tailgate yeah you got access to that too you know yeah you tell them your name
and they'll they'll get you they'll get you another bracelet and we're like cool yeah the public also
has access to the ford tailgate it was not cooler than the ville no the ville was way more exclusive
yeah that was awesome it was great and it so much coke zero at the ville it was way more exclusive. Yeah, the Ville was awesome. It was great. And so much Coke Zero at the Ville.
It was the Bud Light tailgate.
We didn't want Bud Lights.
I want the Coke Zero cream soda Chick-fil-A tailgate.
Yeah, give me the Dasani and Coke Zero tailgate, please,
with the nacho chips.
I don't care about the beer.
We're almost to the Ford tailgate.
I'm going to try to find this post.
Where is it at and
we took a lot of pictures as i feel like i had one of everything we had a i had a mood swings
uh photo i had a girl who knew me purely from or a guy who knew me from stand-up at the ford
tailgate uh a girl who knew me from chicken and pickles specifically and then uh a ghosty's And then Agosti's husband, Rachel DeBeurre, Rachel DeBeurre, her husband found us,
unfortunately, right as it really started raining.
I don't know if he could tell,
but we were like really trying to take some cover.
And he's like, this is crazy that I'm seeing you guys right now.
So like, obviously we stopped and talked to her
for a little bit, but Rachel's husband,
we would have talked to you more if it wasn't raining.
Yes.
And I'd already just gone through the elements earlier in the day, but we still talk, talk, took a selfie.
Um, and then just absolute downpour for 45, probably an hour, just an hour of really heavy
rain. Yeah. You think, yeah, maybe it was that long, but we, we found some shelter in the Ford
tailgate, which was really nice. Hey, you drive a Ford. Yeah. Yeah. I was like, Oh, I'm one of you,
you know, we're, we're all the same here.
Brother.
And then the shelter went away.
Yeah, about 20 minutes in.
Like, guys, we got to take it down.
We got to take it. Everybody out.
Everybody out.
We got to take this down.
Guys behind us are trying to like fight
via like insurance claim.
That was great.
That was a great conversation.
I tell you what, you kick us out of here.
We get struck by lightning.
You're in a world of hurt, brother.
Yeah, you are liable.
If we get struck by lightning and you force us out of here and the guy's like okay if you go to the stadium and you get struck by lightning they were both making good points that's
different that's different because they're not forcing us to go into the stadium you're forcing
us out of here and i'm like just like don't just just stop talking to this guy you know whatever
but i just kept like let's call their bluff Let's just stay here until they force us out.
And then finally they did force us out more or less.
And we sprinted.
And it was, it felt like right when the rain really started coming down
is when we got forced out.
And it was like, this is ridiculous,
but also I guess this is your job to shut this thing down.
So it was, it was a mother's day out, you know, type downpour.
And we just, we got soaked.
We were wet for the second time today.
But we got to the stadium.
Our tickets worked.
No problem.
But around that time, we start to get in.
And the TVs are all saying, dude, inclement weather.
Game's been delayed.
So we're just kind of chilling and just waiting for a while.
And that's when we ran into Andrew Schuette.
Got to talk to him.
And just kind of hung out for probably an hour and a half.
Dried off.
And I don't know.
Not too many stories after that after
that i think the game oh i know our one final mistake brad and i separately each went into the
women's bathroom yeah that was a big old biff not too i got one step in and then i ran into like a
woman i was like oh i'm not in the right spot these days though why not oh i don't know yeah
i had a bud light in my hands i was like no, no, it's cool Okay, it wasn't the same thing. This is what happened to me. Yeah, that's so funny. So halftime
Minute left before half Jake's like time for chicken tenders. I was like perfect. Let's go right now
Let's get the line. And so we're walking out
Some girl chicken and pickle girl. Oh my god Jake triplet. Oh, hey, and so I'm like Jake said chicken tenders
I'm gonna let him talk. This girl doesn't know me. It just seems like, so I'm going to let him talk. I'm going to go
get chicken tenders for both of us. Just beat the line. Then I go to this line, I get to the front
of it and they don't have chicken tenders. And I'm like, I don't know what, I don't, I'm not
going to assume Jake wants an $18 pizza. And then you'd be like, actually, no, I don't really want
this pizza. Yeah, right. Exactly. That like, I would have reacted. Oh, please.
You didn't get the cheese.
And so,
and so I was like,
so I literally was like,
nevermind.
I'm not going to get any food here.
Just keep press cancel on this thing.
And the guy's like,
you want to,
you just want to cancel it?
I was like,
yeah.
And so I was like,
I'll go to the bathroom and then let Jake get his own chicken tender.
And so what happened to me is I saw the women's room on the right.
Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah. I saw the women's room on the right. Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah.
I saw the women's room door right here.
It ends up walking towards it on the right.
And so I see women's.
And so then there's another door to the left.
The opposite of that.
Right.
It's exactly what I do.
It's always like one in the same in my head, you know?
And so I'm like, okay, women's room to the right, men's room to the left.
So I turned left and that's like the exit.
It's like, you know, a half circle kind of thing for each. each and so i walk in i turn the corner and there's just 18 women washing their
hands you got more in than i did oh really yeah dude i saw it dude everything you imagine about
a woman's room is wrong it's just it's just like women go to the bathroom and washing their hands
just like men but it was just like it was like what the? And I just, I think my exact noise was, oh, oh, and just turned around and briskly walked
out of there.
So I don't know that's happening.
Meanwhile, while Brad's in line for the chicken tenders, I'm also exploring the women's bathroom.
And then I go to the concession stand line.
I don't pay attention.
I get to the front of the line.
They don't have chicken tenders where I'm at either.
So I'm like, I guess I'll take the pizza.
So we had the same exact experience separately in different times. It's jake thinking like this is kind of a funny thing like hey i
was trying to get it but they didn't have chicken tenders just you're on your own also i just walked
into the women's restroom and you're like dude me too the exact same two things so i want to know
if you're ever on the club level in the chiefs game have you ever walked into the women's restroom
because maybe it's a normal thing i think that was our last mistake of the night, though.
We made a couple parking. I think we would do it differently.
You know, I think I would have somehow
weaseled my way out of the barbecue relay if I
could do it over again. And then the women's
restroom was another biff. But after that,
the Ford tailgate was
a mistake. Going to the Ford tailgate was a biff.
The grass
is always greener on the other pavilion.
You know, it was just like, oh.
We had it so good.
Donna Kelsey and Coke zeros.
And then we, and then we went into the game too early. Like that, that was all one big mistake of like, man, we could be at the, I even was
like thinking about it.
Like I wanted to go back to the bill three different times.
We were like, we shouldn't, we shouldn't leave the stadium.
I was asking shooty, like, is it possible to even get back in?
He's like, maybe if you talk to these people, I was like, all right, we won't do it.
And then like five minutes later, I kept being like, should we do it though?
Maybe real quick.
I was like, you can call in my name.
I'm not, I know.
I could just tell like, I'm like one for all, all for one, one for all.
We're staying together.
Oh, but I was like, we're in the stadium.
I'm such a cheapskate.
Seven 49 for a Coke zero.
I could get three for free right now um so anyway
it was it was a great game though it really was a great game it was really fun i uh i i got a
little i got a little teary uh the national anthem i didn't quite i uh i will admit i've gotten like
goose bumpy emotional at previous chiefs games if there's like a really fun like hype video or i
don't know. Yeah.
This time I was just locked in on the B2 bomber.
Did you see stats about it afterwards?
Like a Twitter or anything?
It's a very rare bird.
It's like a,
there's only like 51 of them in the world or something like that.
No,
I just thought we'd make a thousand planes a day or something.
That is a good point.
Like it's a rare plane.
Really?
Look it up again.
Get some stats for one of them.
Something like that. That's pretty cool. to look it up again. Get some stats for you. 51 of them? Something like that.
That's pretty cool.
No, yeah, the whole thing.
I don't know.
It's just one of those things where it's just like,
mess with America, see what happens kind of thing.
That's how you're feeling?
Well, just like this.
America, we are so blessed to live in America.
Talking to these British people.
You guys have B-2 bombers like that.
I bet they're different.
I bet they have weird,
you know,
you probably drive them on the right side of the bomber.
You know,
like I did on my story.
I filmed it.
I said,
God bless America.
I was fired up on it.
It was the,
the national anthem for America.
Like the American national anthem is unbelievably awesome.
And the whole thing,
just,
it's just a wonderful experience.
And you knew the chief's thing was coming and you see the B2 bomber.
And it was so quiet.
Like it was stealth.
There was nothing.
It wasn't on my radar.
Yeah.
I found the tweet.
One of them costs $2 billion.
That's why we haven't made more.
2 billion is insane.
There's actually no way that that can be true.
That must count like the research it took
to do it years leading up to it.
Because how could parts alone
on something that could fit in a
house, how can that cost two billion dollars?
What kind of metal are we making
this out of? What kind of technology
is in it? Two billion dollars for the technology?
Great point. Somebody's price gouging.
Bag time. Yeah, you got to find a B-2 bomber.
Surely nothing costs $2 billion.
I mean.
Okay, guys.
Time is here.
Time is here.
Hey, guys.
Yeah, let's undercut them.
Sell them for 1.25.
Let's make our own.
And do just five.
Let's war dogs this thing.
Only 21 ever built.
Wow.
I was off.
Wow.
That's pretty cool to say we've seen one of 21 of anything.
And then this is pretty impressive because it didn't seem that big.
Can carry 16 nuclear bombs.
I think it had any last night.
I didn't see me.
It was stealthy, though.
That's its thing.
Dude, that's pretty.
That's even more cool.
Pretty cool.
Yeah.
So I just got fired up.
It was just like there was anticipation in the air
obviously for the nfl season but then there was even like a little bit of micro anticipation
because of the postponement you know of the game and so it's just like people were ready to yell
and go nuts and it was it was awesome chiefs did great mahomes is back taylor swift is back
life is good or is or is always there, baby. We're floating.
We're floating.
Crazy ending of the game.
Literally, it seemed like they were about to tie it up,
and he was one inch out of bounds.
Ravens should have put their best foot forward.
I've been seeing all sorts of puns and stuff like that.
Did you see the ending, Tymon?
Have you seen anything?
Yeah.
I watched a 15-minute recap thing.
Hey, Tymon!
Oh, not bad.
Give us your analysis, Tymon.
I thought it was cool. I don know that's awesome okay the one guy worthy seemed really impressive yes time good timing that was pretty
cool and you know he's a rookie yeah i heard his first game my brother told me that okay that
somehow yeah yeah it's his first game ever yeah yeah that that run that he had was unbelievable
worthy there were a lot of puns last night because our guy's name is worthy their best that run that he had was unbelievable. Worthy.
There were a lot of puns last night because our guy's name is Worthy. Their best player
his name is Likely.
Was he out of bounds?
Likely.
Like a picture
of the back of his jersey. He's number 80.
How many legal formations are they going to call
tonight? Likely 80.
Oh, nice.
You get it. Are the Ravens going to beat the Chiefs ever again going to call tonight. Likely 80. Oh, nice. Yep. You get it.
Are the Ravens going to beat the Chiefs ever again?
And you put not in front of it.
Not likely.
Toe.
Like toe.
I'm trying to think of something with toe at the end.
Big toe.
What toe? Tomato.
Because his toe was out of bounds.
Oh, oh, oh, oh.
Did you see Mahomes postgame presser?
He's like,
he's like,
should have worn white cleats.
Oh, I saw somebody say that,
but I didn't know that.
That's kind of a good idea.
Why don't we all do that?
It's way harder to tell
if you're out of bounds or not.
That is a great point.
Like completely white.
Because I mean,
it was one of those things
where I was like,
I always try to look at it objectively
and I'm like,
I think he was truly out of bounds.
In the stadium, I was like, I'm pretty sure he's out of bounds,
but then afterwards on Twitter, seeing the screenshots,
like, oh, okay, he was.
I think just a great strategy in general,
if you're at the game, is to just yell in excitement
no matter what.
Because it feels like the refs are a little bit like,
if the stadium's kind of quiet, they're like, I don't know.
But if we're going nuts, it's like, they going to kill me if if i say the wrong thing here so uh anyway it was just all around a fun time man i mean it's just sweet being back with the
chiefs and um yeah i don't know it's just one of those things once again where it's just like we
just look good we just look like we're gonna to have a lot of fun. Another chief season. So fun times. Yeah.
It was fun doing it with you, brother. Yeah, it was fun. We were just, the vibes were high. We
should have a good mood all day. It was just fun. What did I tell you at what point? Like we were
like climbing up this hill, like back by this Sunday night football, like camper truck thing,
going up to the pavilion running late.
And I was like,
Jake,
do you ever feel like you find yourself in these moments with anybody else?
Cause I feel like you and I find yourselves in these moments.
How did I get here doing this?
But man,
it was,
it was awesome.
It was awesome.
Yeah.
So we want to be able to tell you guys everything and our experience.
And I'm good on barbecue sauce for a while.
Oh, cause when I went to wash my hands, they had no soap.
So I really had barbecue sauce on my hands for a long time.
That was that was a little bit like even like drinking the Coke Zero.
It's like I'm kind of still smelling really.
I got to hold it from the bottom.
Yeah, the tip it that way.
The women's bathroom didn't have much soap either.
I look, I will say that I am not in mid-season form as far as a fan yet
i was ready to yell at the beginning of that game by the end of it i was just sitting there
just enjoying it watching the game yeah i was like we got a podcast tomorrow i was like oh
come on guys just hold them please just win i was not i was not my best fan you know you feel
responsible when you're at the game. Well, just hold him.
Please just stop Lamar Jackson, please.
Just be motivated without me yelling, please.
Be likely to stop.
So yeah, I was just, I don't know.
I was exhausted by the end of the night.
Yeah, it was a long day.
But also, couldn't fall asleep last night.
Really?
Didn't fall asleep till like 1.30, I bet.
Wow.
Just like so exhausted, bet wow like just like
so exhausted but just like why am i not falling asleep i was thinking about i was thinking about
the most random things like one point i realized i was thinking about cutting a hamburger for my
kids with a fork i don't know why it sounds like kind of like half dream half it was it was like
it was like oh you were you're asleep. Why would you be?
Yeah, you can't.
I'm not controlling thinking about that.
Yeah, I didn't choose to think about this.
I'm like, wait, but am I awake?
I don't think I'm asleep.
I tried to.
Rachel was asleep on the couch.
It was so cute just like seeing her.
The news is still on after the game.
They're talking about the Chiefs.
She's asleep on the couch in her Kelsey shirt.
I was like, this is awesome.
She watches at home by herself, and she put this shirt on.
That's great.
But I was like, I'm going to wake her up
because I hadn't seen her all day.
We left before she got home from work.
Anyway, I woke her up, and her eyes did open,
and she smiled at me.
But it wasn't like a smile like,
my husband's home.
I haven't seen him all day.
It was like, nice to meet you.
It was like a forced smile like like
i know i'm supposed to be happy all the time so didn't say anything i was just like hey how's it
going she's kind of smiling and then kind of like starts blinking more and then it's kind of just
like asleep again i was like i guess she wasn't awake i don't know if like we we maintained about
10 seconds worth of eye contact there but nothing see ya and then this morning she was like i'm sorry i didn't wake up when you got home and
i was like well i actually did wake you up and she's like i don't remember that i was like i
felt like you didn't it's like you weren't actually awake sometimes that almost makes me feel better
though because then like like sometimes i'll like get in bed and katherine will start like moving
around a bunch i'm like sorry for waking up last night she's like i don't remember you coming in
at all you know like it's like okay good oh night. She's like, I don't remember you coming in at all. It's like, okay, good.
Oh, great. Because it feels like I
woke you from your slumber. Yeah.
You know.
Speaking of sports, Brad and I are going to a golf tournament.
Who wants to come hang
out with us in Denver slash
Castle Pines? Soon, actually.
We should book our flights, probably. Yes, we'll book
them today. But yeah, we are
going and we're doing it with Healing Waters International.
Yes.
Now, Ryan Regan, who are those guys?
Those are the guys that help provide clean water for the world.
That's right.
They're a nonprofit ministry.
Yeah, looking just to go to the poorest parts of the world and provide people with water
because it's a huge issue.
There's a huge...
What is it?
I was going to say, I think the cost of a B2 bomber, there's about that many people who don't
have access to clean water, to cook, to drink, whatever. And so Healing Water is just trying
to help. I think it's three, it's a sad stat, but it's a true stat. Three million children
die of like a lack of clean water related death every year. And that's where Healing Water steps in.
They're trying to help.
And so we are asking you guys to donate
to their organization so they can help people groups
who don't have access to clean water.
Yeah, their tagline says it all.
Safe water changes everything.
Imagine not having that.
Imagine-
Dude, you just think about my barbecue sauce yesterday.
Exactly. No water. Exactly. Oh man. I mean, let's talk about there'll be bugs. You'd have,
there'll be bugs and that bugs bring disease. Yep. Disease brings death. I mean, it's just
being real. Like, yeah, safe water helps. And so if you go to give.healingwaters.org
slash ghost runners, give.healingwaters.org slash ghost runners, you can donate.
You can donate $30 right now. Straight up $30 gives a
child, one child free, sorry, drinking water for a year, clean drinking water for a year,
safe drink. You can do it $25 a month. Think about, think about $25 a month. Can you afford
that? If you can, you can provide safe water for children for a year, Ten children. I'm sorry. I'm struggling through this, but you get it.
It's alright. You're doing great.
So, up to you guys.
Whatever you want to donate, whatever you feel led to do,
we would really appreciate it.

We love them. Thank you guys for, um, yeah, just giving to that wonderful ministry, making a difference. It's, it's cool
to see that our podcast is doing something that it makes eternal difference for people. So
I, uh, I know we always come in here and talk about the construction updates and that's,
I don't know how interesting that is to you guys, but they're laying asphalt now, so it smells good outside,
and it feels like they've got to be close to get done.
Yeah.
It's no more rubble and rock.
It is now black.
And you've got a curb.
Did we talk about that yet?
And I have a curb.
A nice curb.
Nice-looking curb.
Yeah.
But the main update on this is last week,
as just different things are happening uh monday they like kind of shut down the road this is when um i think about maybe when i text
you guys like hey you have to park somewhere else just why it's up when you come here
and then tuesday still can't get in wednesday still can't get in by friday i was like because
i like to think rachel and i for sure both are like very adaptable people.
Like I don't even know I'm being bothered or like annoyed.
You have to do it like several times in a row before I even notice.
Like, oh, I've been in convenience for a few days.
I didn't even really notice it.
Well, five days in is when I noticed.
I was like, wait, yeah, we haven't been able to charge our cars for five days.
Rachel and I both have electric cars.
It's very important that we like charge overnight. It also becomes a major inconvenience.
It's a hassle.
Whatever.
It's like, you know what?
I'm not going to go full Karen.
I'm going to send them a little email.
You have a contact there?
Yeah.
Yeah.
So I had the, there's like a construction manager, a project manager.
And then I found like a person who works for the city of Shawnee.
I want to copy them all in the email.
Me and ChatGPT cook something up together.
Just like, hey, I feel like I've been very patient with the, and dude, I could
have rattled off like 20 things. I was like, that feels like full Karen. But I could have been like,
look, I've been very patient with the, you know, the construction project and
the Wi-Fi being shut off at times and the water being shut off and the electricity being shut off
and the constant request to move our car and the lack of parking and the trash service not working sometimes and
the packages that often don't arrive you know i could have just kept going and i was like i could
do that but i have been patient um but i was told when this project was first announced that it was
illegal to block our driveway you've now been blocking our driveway for five straight days
and we're unable to charge our car yeah this is leading to
you know massive inconvenience as well as like money coming out of our pockets we have to pay
for these chargers whatever and so two things happened one i had access to my driveway in 30
minutes after i sent that email really that was fun what what define like what do you mean by
access like how'd they do it so then they caught they brought in this like a piece of machinery with like a you know i had a bucket full of dirt and so they like
laid us like they gave us like a dirt ramp into our driveway oh i saw the ramp yeah yeah so they
just like made us made us a little ramp okay so that is one thing that happened i'm texting you
guys a picture of another thing that happened because the project manager came to my door
i think to talk to me about the email.
I was on a call.
I was on a meeting.
I wasn't able to come to the door,
but this is what I saw on the Ring doorbell camera.
I want to get your guys' reactions when it comes across your screen.
Okay.
That guy is peeing in your lawn.
That guy, So he's
seven, 60, 70
years old and his pants
are below his
cheeks. They are down. They
are so far down. There's no it's
amazing. They're not at his ankles
like how do you how do you have them that far down
without them completely falling? So
I I have to be looking at the ring door
footage when this is happening.
And I can't believe what I'm seeing
because I see him go from pants at a normal spot
to then pants dropping.
Oh, I was like, oh, what is really?
What is this?
Yeah.
And it turns out,
I think he was like adjusting his belt or something.
But why drop your pants in front of our door
on our front porch in front of a ring doorbell?
Why choose right there to like,
I'm going to drop my pants and adjust my belt.
I'm going to retuck my shirt in right now.
He's a professional man.
What can I say, you know?
So then I start, I'm like, screenshot.
Let's start screen recording just in case something else goes down.
Unfortunately, nothing else happened after that.
But I am keeping that in my back pocket.
If something else goes down, I've always got the picture of the project manager
with his pants down on my property.
Listen, buddy.
Yeah, literally, you caught him with his pants down.
Seriously.
I mean, I don't want to have to use this or anything, but I think that's like because
he's not the nicest guy.
He's like a pretty like short, like just like he's just very short in all things he does.
Like whenever I've spoken to him, it's just like when you need out.
Oh, sorry.
When you need out.
You're like looking at me like, oh, probably like later today.
OK.
It's like, why do I feel bothered?
You're the one, you know,
it's just like, he's an interesting guy.
So.
I mean, if you're going to stereotype like,
which whatever, we're stereotyping,
but construction people versus like the Tesla people,
like I bet construction people don't love Tesla guys.
Oh, I see.
Like if he's like,
like if he's going to stereotype you,
which you're not like some EV guy that's like, Oh, I'm just all about Evie's. And I just, you know, whatever,
you know, like you, you just think they're cool. But like, maybe he's thinking to himself,
I don't like this guy, you know, whatever. Yeah. And I will say the construction workers
are awesome. Like I've been saying, I've been like become friends with them. We gave them
a sables, but it's, it's their boss. Have you ever given this guy an osseable no jake there's my problem fine yeah you need to cater to
him more yep yeah so uh one last update that's that was fun his pants were down i have a screenshot
of it that's wild uh a couple days later this is just a couple days ago actually i should say
i'm i'm back to rob all my driver i'm bouncing around i'm bouncing
around and uh oh oh oh yeah i almost forgot to tell the whole story so i'm coming back from uh
trey's house carter panians and dude something happened to me that morning like a cinnamon
swirl type situation like i don't feel sick but i just like i need to get to the bathroom yeah i
just know what this feeling is something like mixed with with something else and it's time to erupt.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You just like,
it's literally feels like it's about to erupt.
Like it's just gurgling
and like it's got to go somewhere.
Sure.
I would hope it's a toilet soon.
Is it,
do you,
does that happen to you more
like when you're home
than anything else?
Like,
like to me,
it's a mental thing sometimes
where it's like,
I'm home time to go.
Oh,
I just feel like it's nature.
Like it doesn't care
about where you're at.
Sometimes it is. Yeah. Like I've never had to go to this feels like it's nature like it doesn't care about where you're at sometimes it is
fair yeah like i've never had to go at your house though but i'll come home after this i'll be like
i think i gotta go yeah this was like this is more than just like i could go for a poop i could do
i could sit down and see this is like what i got 15 minutes why not why not try i gotta do some
stuff on my phone anyway yeah that's like probably four out of five of my poops yeah like let's just say it could be fun rachel's not home let's stink it up that's
right um this was like i need to get somewhere soon yeah it's either this or the front lawn i'm
bouncing around i'm bouncing around trying to get home trying to get home and then when i get to my
um driveway they had put down a ramp on top of the dirt and now the dirt is gone and the ramp
is now like up on my driveway it's not it's not at 45 degrees anymore it's a ramp on top of the dirt and now the dirt is gone. And the ramp is now like up on my driveway.
It's not,
it's not at 45 degrees anymore.
It's a touch on my driveway.
Is it touching the ground?
Like,
is it a ramp anymore?
No,
it's just like a,
it's just flat on the concrete.
It's I'm like,
no problem.
Get out of my car.
I'm running over there.
I go to move it.
Cause the whole time I've been driving on the last couple of days,
I was thinking it was like a plywood ramp or something.
I go to move this thing.
I want you to keep in mind how badly i have to yeah you're bending down exerting
motion i go down to move the plywood this thing is steel and i don't move it at all and i almost
crap my pants dude yeah you're exerting so much and you're literally bending down i was like this
is a pretty big piece of plywood i'm'm going to have to push pretty hard.
I'm supposed to lift up my knees, not my back.
And so, yeah, I fully squatted.
And then, oh, my gosh.
And my eyes popped out of my head and poop almost out of my butt.
It was crazy.
It was just, I couldn't even budge it.
This thing was so heavy.
Oh, my gosh.
But I got to go.
And so I flagged over the pants on the ground guy.
And I was like, hey, we got to figure this out.
I got to go.
I thought I was going to have access to my driveway.
What do you need in?
What do you need in?
Yeah, he goes, okay, if you just wouldn't mind parking over here,
we'll get on that right away.
And furthermore, I said, also, can we get this driveway
or can we get the road smoothed out?
My front bumper is hitting rock and stuff. I'm dragging on the ground. He said, yeah, we'll get road smoothed out like my my front bumper is like hitting rock and stuff like i'm dragging like on the ground he said yeah we'll get that smoothed out right away
i'm in charge now i run this street look at me look at me i'm the captain yeah i'm the project
manager that's right that felt good and i took the best dump of my life oh yeah yeah victory dump
that that thing that's why they call it a throne right there. I'm the king.
Porcelain throne.
Construction throne.
Yeah.
It felt good.
I was like, I bossed him around.
Did you tell Dennis that story?
Your neighbor?
No, but Dennis and I, I've been chatting.
He's been keeping me up to date.
I don't want to fire up Dennis anymore because that was like the one thing I've like said,
you know, I did that email and then I guess that, but Dennis, I think calls these people.
He calls the city.
He calls the trash.
He calls people constantly.
Well, he just has nothing better to do. He felt like a king and he's, he Dennis, I think calls these people. He calls the city. He calls the trash. He calls people constantly. Well,
he just has nothing better to do.
He felt like a King and he's,
he's addicted to the feeling.
Yeah.
I don't want to become Dennis.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Dennis has retired.
His wife passed away.
So all he cares about is like,
uh,
like landscaping really is all he cares about.
And so with all this contraction,
I know he's torn up about it and he's,
he's always causing a,
causing a fuss.
What did he say?
Something like they said it was going to be a 10 degree slope max.
And it's 11.
They told me 11.9 degree slope.
And I used to work in this industry, city planning.
I mean, you rarely see above 10.
So I called him and let him know.
So I was like, good for you.
What's mine going to be?
Yeah, yours is like 18.
Could we get that bumper smoothed out?
Yeah, sure.
That's what I thought.
That's what I thought.
Down to 17 now.
Really?
So I got the road smoothed out for us.
Thank you.
For a couple of days.
That's huge.
It felt awesome.
I bet.
Yeah.
It's like, maybe I should have been asking for stuff quicker.
And by the way, can you get me a new Tesla real quick?
And by the way, it's dirty.
Clean it.
Lick it off.
Lick all the dirt off of there.
Oh, man.
That's amazing.
Good for you.
That was cool.
Other thing I was going to say,
shout out to all the ghosties
who got into the fantasy football league.
Shout out Cole Ford
for starting that survival league.
There's also multiple
like leftover
carryover leagues.
So there's a spot for everybody.
But every year,
I think it's crazier and crazier.
I was sitting by my phone
making sure everything went off. All right. And I think it's crazier and crazier. I was sitting by my phone, making sure everything went off all right.
And I think with only the $15 patrons,
both leagues filled up in 45 seconds this year.
Wow.
It was insane.
Wow, wow, wow.
I told the $10 patrons,
I was like, yeah, I bet it's 50-50
whether you get it or not.
50-50.
Sorry.
Obviously, I don't know what 50-50 means.
Good reference.
So it was like 45 seconds.
So you had to be quick,
but it's fun.
I would say I'm not going to mention any names.
I think there's one person out of like the 34,
not timing.
Sorry.
Actually,
besides timing,
uh,
who doesn't know what they're doing.
So not bad,
not bad.
And it's like,
it's like,
it's a great lesson of like,
there's always going to be one,
you know,
like it's always going to happen and that's okay. I just feel bad for all the people that are like really like shooty was
like dang i didn't get in this year i know gabe oliver didn't get in so many people we love and
would like to see again but uh i do feel bad for like being the don't like no no i'm not i'm not
no no i'm not trying to say that it's just like i feel like i'll obviously i'll figure out what
i'm doing and then like next time i'll be
like great but like and your team really is good so no timon's team is great there's one team and
this is not who i was referencing but whoever brandon is we don't know brandon it's not brandon
falconer but he auto drafted in the poor computer i mean the computer doesn't understand what we're
doing no at all and so which it should they should be able to make like here's how we here's how your
points total works therefore this is the depth chart now yeah where is ai when you need it i know
nowhere to be found like it needs to factor in ppr versus not versus how you're scoring
touchdowns whatever it does granted it doesn't know we're doing a guillotine league but it knows
you have to start two quarterbacks and it drafted zero quarterbacks for him so uh brad kept making
the joke in the chat like oh i can't wait to have this guy's receivers next week.
It's going to be awesome.
That's a fun joke.
Yeah, but Tymon's in the league, which is fun.
Tymon, tell us, tell the Ghosties your team name.
Patrick Mahomeschooled.
That's awesome.
And he's got an AI-generated, like, it's Mahomes,
but with, like, nerdy-looking glasses.
Yeah, and you have a good one. Oh, yeah, Travis K yeah yeah and what's your other one now malice banger okay i
don't know mine are still the same from two years ago i need to change mine it doesn't even make
sense because i like i like name my teams like brad's childhood toys and brad's childhood snacks
or something like that but then every player was a different toy it's fun that they let you name
your players you can nickname your player so i had like furby as patrick mahomes or something like that. But then every player was a different toy. It's fun that they let you name your players. You can nickname your players.
So I had like Furby as Patrick Mahomes
or something like that.
But none of my players are nicknamed anything anymore.
So bless you.
Excuse me, guys.
I had a funny, I never talked about this in the Memphis,
in my Memphis fantasy football draft is an auction draft.
Yeah.
You guys do those?
I did that.
So with my extended family,
I did an auction league for like keeper, like 14, 15 years. Yeah. Did you do those? I did that. So with my extended family, I did an auction league for like Keeper
for like 14, 15 years.
Yeah.
Did you do it virtually ever?
No, always in person.
That's fun.
Yeah.
So this would never happen to you,
but you can imagine what would happen here.
So-
Because most of you guys are in person,
but is there a couple of people digitally?
Yeah, I think there's 12 of us in the league
and I bet eight of us were in person.
Are they on the phone or just on the-
Some of them would FaceTime in for periods of time. Yeah. It's not the same. It's so much
more fun if everyone just together. Yeah. Cause we didn't use software or anything. It was like,
truly like you either got to be there or got to be like calling in actively bidding. No. Yeah.
It's just all online. So you just click, you know, whatever. And so somehow one guy I think
is like literally putting his kid to bed in Oklahoma city. Shout out Jeff.
And, uh, we're, it's, uh, what's the, what's one of the, one of the running backs for the
bills.
Um, James Cook.
I think it was James Cook.
It doesn't matter who it was.
It was, it was some like mediocre running back, like nobody crazy.
And you have $200 to spend on the auction draft.
Right.
And you know, we're bidding back and forth.
He's up to like $30 or something like that and it wasn't james cook there's somebody better than that but it was still like
a top 15 running back doesn't matter um all of a sudden somehow jeff's app glitches somehow
whatever and he puts in 120 to bid on this thing like clicks it what's the highest player in the
league go for 60. Yeah.
Yeah.
Total like 60,
70 bucks max for like the best player. Yeah.
For Christian McCaffrey or right.
CD lamb or something.
And even then it's like,
okay,
hope,
hope he gets injured.
Your season's over $120.
And it was like near the beginning of the draft.
And then,
but what happened was,
you know,
you can either like put an exact number into like auction draft with,
or you can just press like plus $1 on the click and it'll just, you know, go up $1 from whatever
the current number is. So Jeff presses $120. My friend Bart, without knowing, like just instant,
like kind of like, yeah, I'll go one up kind of like the whole, like, don't reply Siri. Oh,
I meant to say don't reply and said it said sin kind of thing it was like he clicked it and it goes 121 dollars people are bidding at that price and so bart yeah
my friend bart was like oh my gosh holy crap like i didn't mean to bid 121 dollars and of course like
i think that's hilarious i think it's like sorry like no you gotta oh yeah well because it was
like can you because sometimes these fancy drafts are tough to redo.
True, yeah.
And so there were a few of us that were just like, I mean, whatever.
But most people were like, he didn't mean to do that, whatever.
So we redid it.
But it was like one of those.
Yeah, you would definitely make him go back?
Yeah, I think so.
Then again, when you say that, I think about the video we're coming out with
when we get over this episode,
the Friday one,
is that we're playing a pretty competitive game
and a ball is clearly going out.
It's got, it's trying to dodge it
and then it lands on his foot
and it's like, ball's going out.
But I mean, do we play by the rules?
Do we live in a nation of laws or not?
Exactly.
There's just like,
it's like by definition,
there was nothing wrong with
what happened you know i think glitched no you bid and you upped his bid my friend claims he's
like i don't know how i bid 120 but i don't know if i just press the buttons as i was putting her
to bed or what but like bart pressed one dollar more than that so therefore he was left with it
that's funny my only guess you know sometimes there's like certain like, like boxes on like websites where like, whatever zero was like already there. And he goes to put
12 and it adds it to the zero. Sure. Like he clicks it and it's yeah, the zeros in the,
I thought it would replace the zero, not add on to it. Yeah. It's insane. Oh, it was awesome.
That's pretty funny though. Everyone just screaming. Oh, what 20 max bids 40 now. Sorry.
Yeah. So then we pause and you know, my friend who's the commissioner, who's very fair you know he's like tried to like figure it all out and we're all
like i mean if you try to be fair move on he's doing parliamentary procedure all right the eyes
have it because it was like i mean we were like probably seven or eight picks into the draft so
we weren't very far into it we can redo this it's like could we yeah could we redo it from the
beginning could we you know it was it was awesome from the beginning? Could we, you know,
it was,
it was awesome.
It was so funny.
That's pretty electric.
Yeah.
Yeah. That's fun.
Yeah.
I go back.
I got out of that league with my family just cause I got so many,
this is just the last few years.
Cause I got so many guillotine and everything else,
but it was always fun.
Yeah.
Strategy of like,
all right.
I know this guy lives at kid city.
He's a chiefs fan.
He has an inflated view of what Pacheco is worth.
So I'm going to run up the numbers.
Oh yeah,
dude.
25.
All the chiefs players get so high bid because we have like four Chiefs fans
yes you nominate them early he'll let people spend their money yeah or like one of my buddies went to
Georgia Tech so he's always loved Butker and so we always get him to spend like eight dollars on
Butker you know like just like a little bit too much on a kicker um the kicker thing is wild people
get obsessed with kickers and you look at like the 20th best kicker and the first kicker thing is wild. People get obsessed with kickers. And you look at like the 20th best kicker
and the first kicker are separated by like 30 points all year,
you know, two points a game or something.
And like growing up, like my family fantasy league,
the kicker was pretty valuable.
Like if it was over, I think back in the day it was,
if it was over 45 yard kick, it was six points.
It's a hundred.
And so every once in a while, like a kicker gets a, like 30 points.
And so in my head, like, I don't, I a, you're like 30 points. And so in my head,
like,
I don't,
I don't analyze the different leagues scoring enough to where I'm like,
a kicker and a defense could win you some games.
And in reality,
it's like,
no,
not really.
I don't think they should because it's so rant.
No one cares.
Like we're not putting our strategy into that.
So that shouldn't be.
Yeah.
Where the points go.
Yeah.
The strategy,
you can't really strategize a kicker.
Yeah.
Defense a little more. You can be like who they're playing.. Yeah. The strategy, you can't really strategize a kicker. Yeah. Defense a little more.
You can be like who they're playing.
Matchups.
But anyway,
that's enough football talk.
Maitre Roasters,
not enough Maitre Roasters talk.
I'll tell you that much.
Look at my eyes.
They're caffeinated.
That's why I got these big old eyes
from Maitre Roasters.
You did yesterday too

on the way the Chiefs came.
When I saw you, I walked into your house and uh on the way the chiefs came when i saw you

Oh, hey,

That's right.
But mainstream roasters is our sponsor today.
Last week,
they were our sponsor the week before that.
They were our sponsor.
I'm looking at who's our sponsor next week.
Main Street Roasters for every single episode ever because they're the best
sponsors around best coffee, best beans around.
Maybe you're thinking,
I've already bought,
I've already supported the boys.
I've already bought some Main Street Roasters.
I'm thinking I've already supported the boys.
I've supported them once.
Main Street Roasters supports us every single week.
Yeah.
And the promo code doesn't work
for just your first time
or just, you know,
you know.
Yeah, for one time.
It works every time.
I hope every time you drink coffee
that's not Main Street Roasters,
you feel a little guilty inside.
All right?
I hope you're just like this.
I mean, yeah, it's good coffee, but it's not Main Street Roasters.
It's not supporting.
I didn't support the boy.
It's not supporting Northeast Indiana's economy.
Right?
So.
Right?
So feel bad.
Huh?
Or feel good.
MainStreetRoasters.com.
GRKC, 10% off.
Oh, coffee's awesome.
It's awesome.
Yep.
I love it.
I got one last thing on my list.
Great.
It's called Addict Pickleball is Insane.
I don't know how much you've been following along with this.
I really appreciate the ghosties trying to like
get fired up in support.
Honestly, I hope I never take for granted
how much of a like, I don't know, support system i have in so many like quote-unquote strangers
in the ghosties like you guys are just so like behind us and whatever we do or whether you're
excited for us you're fired up for us like 100 you guys really are uh very impressive uh as a
unit so i really appreciate you but yeah that episode came out last week if you're like what
do i need to do how do, how do I kill these guys?
Yeah.
And I was like,
a lot of this kind of went down.
Don't worry about it.
Um,
but I won't focus too much on it.
But so while we were recording last week,
that was pretty fun.
While recording,
we find out that they have a fake Instagram account,
which is insane.
You know,
I make a little Instagram story about it.
Um,
just to get that account ticket.
I wasn't going to like get, I wasn't going to like, I wasn't going to like
kind of platform them
for stealing our content.
Like they don't deserve that.
But it's like,
once they make a fake Instagram,
that's insane behavior.
Why would you do that?
Yeah.
And so I was like,
I got to talk about this.
Just get the Instagram account shut down.
You guys did great.
You report it.
Got shut down in 30 minutes.
Well, then from there,
they get fired up,
which I don't know why
everything about them.
I'm like,
why are you guys upset?
You, you've been the, the instigator, the stealer, the copier, infringer.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You've done everything.
Yeah.
We're doing everything.
And so then they just start blowing me up from multiple accounts in my DMs.
And I can't believe you call yourself a comedian.
I can't believe.
Is this your first day on the internet?
You're not acting like it.
How long have you been doing this?
You know, just like really like mean stuff.
The next day they post some video about like,
hey, they're doing a Labor Day sale.
And then they are the ones commenting
from all their different accounts being like,
hey, at Friday Pickleball,
other companies have ran a sale before.
So is this cool if we do this?
Hey, is this original enough for Friday Pickleball?
They're trolling you.
Yeah, but also I'm like, this is such a bad look for your company like if other people
see this like why do they keep tagging these other sure guys who is this wait friday oh they have
their pedals are cheaper maybe oh wow yeah their stuff is actually i can whoa attic pickleball is
210 dollars i get two for 99 with promo code friday with two y's brad gets it whoa okay that's
a pretty good deal.
Well, surely like that's not carbon fiber,
you know, poly fiber.
Can we talk about these paddles real quick?
Turn them back and forth.
I love turning them.
Ghostly haze?
New very limited design.
Yeah, you're right.
I love it.
They're tagging you.
So they're tagging us all over,
asking us if things are original.
I'm taking the high road.
I'm not saying anything.
I'm not responding to any DMs. One guy i did have you seen that meme before where it's a
guy on twitter who just it's kind of specific to talk about but he says like i ain't reading all
that but happy for you or sorry for your loss yeah it's like a pretty popular meme i just like
screenshot of that meme i just replied to his like long text that way because i feel like it's
got to be the ultimate just like thumbs down yeah yeah he didn't even maybe thumbs up or maybe thumbs up
got it two thumbs up yeah next time thumbs up it and then he didn't even get the joke he was like
i think that was a mistake what did you send me so i was like oh he doesn't even understand
what's happening he's just trying to troll you back again like he's trying to make yeah um so then uh what else happens i didn't i should have wrote down
like what was actually happening but um oh then i started to see in their original post because
i'm checking back i'm like making sure like all right making sure they're not doing anything
it's saying again or stealing anything else more ghosties are getting into like arguments in the
comments with these guys so i appreciate you guys shouting me out and then i'm starting to see all these other claims they're like well they
actually stole from us i'm like oh this should be good they're like they came out with a uh a hybrid
paddle shape after we did oh jake which is like saying how could you yeah it's like we make water
bottles and now they do their water bottles are also cylindrical we do the cylinder bottles you guys have to do a different shape spherical maybe good luck with
cube yeah gonna be hard to drink out of that you can you can put one big block of ice in there
that's it it's like okay good for you i'm like so fired up about this weird claim that i actually do
the research to see.
That's not even true.
We had our paddles before them.
They launched their paddle after we did.
It's like, none of this makes sense.
You guys are idiots.
Also, there's a thousand pickleball companies.
Yeah.
None of us have a proprietary shape.
No, this is dumb.
Well, you don't have to get into the weeds too much,
but aren't you like buying your paddles
from the same places like a lot of other people?
We are, you know what I'll say?
Yeah.
I don't know if he would want me saying that, whatever Vulcan said, they have been talking
to a manufacturer that currently makes our paddles.
Yeah.
So there, there's a lot of sharing going on.
Sure.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's, that's literally like all of supply chain, right?
It's like, Hey, Lululemon and New Balance
get their stuff from the same people.
Yeah, Trader Joe's, Walmart, and Whole Foods.
Same stuff, different labels.
Yeah, it's how goods work in America.
But then the other thing I noticed is like,
is rent free as if like we're living in their head?
I will say they were on my mind too.
I was looking into them.
So they have a brick and mortar store in Tampa.
I was like, let's just see what this is all about.
They have like 13 Google reviews. Eight of them are one-star reviews and
they're like the leadership here is awful this place is a scam these people are frauds like
holy cow what am i getting myself into i checked their facebook reviews they have three reviews
one of them's a one-star review it's like do not trust the people in charge of this business
then i'm like i'm gonna search uh the pickleball subreddit i'm gonna search addict pickleball of
course there's a post it's like i don't know if you guys have heard it it's a small company maybe
you haven't heard of him but beware of these guys i'm like what's going on here all they do is steal
our stuff what have they done to these other people yeah it's crazy sorry for using this word
but how screwed over do you have to do to somebody like to make them upset about a pickleball brand
and like question the leadership or call you a scam artist or fraud. What have you done to them? If all you do is buy a pickleball, like pickleball
paddles, aren't that much different than each other. There's always like, I'm going to write
a one-star review about these people because their pickleball paddles, not incredible.
Yeah. What, yeah. How did they treat someone or what did they do to you personally? Like,
did they just, I, it seems like more than just like I bought one and it didn't show up. This
shipping was slow. I mean, let's, let's's let's go back to the roots of this whole thing
their name they're glorifying addicts and that's addictions are bad things is that what you want
to support we shouldn't unless we're love addicts hashtag family force five we should not be addicts
of anything so yeah you know what i love fridays fridays fridays are just they're a day of the week and
they're generally a great day of the week for anybody who has for anybody who has a normal like
traditional job that's a good thing friday people like fridays so anyway that's just what's went
down since last week i'm like this is this company i don't know what's going on i'm gonna stay far
away because it seems like trouble but thank you g ghosties for being willing to fight for for us and maybe keep an eye out just see what
see what else they're up to next you know don't follow them yeah keep an eye on them just just
search them a lot yeah just make sure they come up in your for you page but you're not following
them yeah and maybe they'll run targeted ads at you is it costs some money i i think about that
sometimes with friday pickleball because I watch all your ads.
Yeah, but should I not?
And I'm like,
is this like actually hurting them?
Because then it's like less effective
because I'm not buying one.
You know, like I get in my head
about all that stuff.
Tymon, what did you have to drink today?
Sorry, you can go to the bathroom.
I peed twice in the last like hour and a half.
Oh, Tymon just texted us.
Tymon said I have to pee so bad right now.
All right, let's
point the camera towards the
bathroom. I got a
parabolic mic.
You can kind of hear it.
Oh,
oh, hey,
we got a little bit of steel ramp on our situation
uh anyway um that's crazy man yeah it's just like the more i dug i was like whoa
it feels like true crime i mean who are these guys i'm sure you've talked to rachel about it
to an extent like the psychology the the whatever behind it is like i don't know i'm sure you've talked to rachel about it to an extent like the psychology the the
whatever behind it is like i don't know i'm sure there's a term or there's something for like
somebody the way if somebody did this in a relationship like where it's just like
you're the you're the wrong one but you're trying to make me feel bad about it's basically what
they're doing like manipulating i guess probably yeah or can somehow that's how you control some
yeah i don't know like is that what shaming kind
of is like it's like you're making you're making me the bad person here yeah just because i'm like
calling you out on your you know wrongdoings kind of thing and it's like ah yeah and it's like what's
the what's the ultimate best case scenario here i don't know yeah as much i'd like to like love to
prove them wrong in the dms who
it doesn't matter just stay away because some guys some of the people who dm'd me they were just like
what's your deal with attic pickleball man everybody steals look at tiktok and we're just
stealing each other's content i'm like oh so you yeah so you're admitting you just stole you steal
people's content yeah that's just what you want to be known for it's a silly uh yeah no no one
steals content like that people might like be like oh that's a pretty, uh, yeah, no, no one steals content like that. People might like be like,
Oh, that's a pretty funny trend is a template. Oh, you guys are kind of like doing like a mom
joke thing. Like, okay, let's do a mom joke thing. But it's like, you don't literally,
like, I've never seen any, I've never seen Trey like do a, you know, holderness family video.
And he did their same script, but he said it.
Yeah.
It's not how it works.
Like you don't do a, like you don't cover videos.
You cover songs.
That's kind of a fun thing.
It's like, I'm a weird owl of comedy.
John Mayer did a Beyonce song.
That's kind of fun.
Like that's kind of a cool little thing, but it's like,
I should go on a Nate Bargatze tour, a cover tour.
Dude, of my favorite comedians.
I'll do, I'll do Bert Kreischer.
I'll be doing machine, you know, like the clean burt kreischer yeah why don't comedians cover comedy
yeah yeah and if they ever do that like if they ever do like a joke that somebody else does
we've talked about that i think like yeah it's like a huge like
blacklist you bought amy schumer carlos mencia it's like yeah you're done jaron myers
maybe Carlos Mencia. It's like, yeah, you're done. Jaron Myers.
Maybe.
Oh, no.
I don't know.
Maybe.
Maybe not.
But anyway, Chiefs are going to look good this year, I think.
Chiefs are good.
Chiefs are good.
Healing Waters is good.
Main Street Roaster is good.
This guy with his pants off is good.
Those pants were off. Those pants are down there, dude. Whitey Tidy is good. Main Street Roaster is good. This guy with his pants off is good. Those pants were off.
Those pants are down there, dude. Whitey Tidy is showing. You have a review
of the week or anything else you'd like to talk about?
Tymon, do you have anything you'd like to talk about?
You came all the way here. Yeah, Tymon.
Say something.
I feel like your hands
don't look very shiny for just going to the bathroom.
You didn't wash them and you're just
controlling our boards with those dirty hands.
Yeah, your hands are always shiny after you wash them.
Unless you dry them well.
I did.
Just go ahead.
I did.
No, I'm trying to think of something.
Okay, the reason I only drafted two quarterbacks and then let the computer do the rest is because
I was at callbacks for Newsies.
Oh, yeah.
I want to hear about this. M&U? Mies yeah newsies and it's like it was i was conflicted about it
because i was like i don't know if i necessarily really have the time for this but it would just
be a super cool thing it's like if i did get cast i would like i would do it okay and so like
i uh because my voice teacher like recommended me and like, they were like,
come to callbacks.
Can you,
can you describe just really quickly how much time it would take?
Like what,
what is,
what is like the,
okay.
Yeah.
Rehearsal schedule.
I think it's like maybe eight ish weeks of three nights a week.
Okay.
Um,
but it's like,
you're not called to every single one,
but if you're going to lead,
you're called to like probably quite a bit.
Wow.
So it would be a big commitment.
And so I was like, hey, we'll see.
We'll see.
And so I went to callbacks, which is just like, yeah,
the second round kind of like narrowing things down.
You read for specific parts.
But I wasn't at audition, so it was my first thing.
But, yeah, they had me read for Jack, Davey, and Crutchie,
like the three main guys.
So I was excited.
That's really cool.
Just to get asked to do that, it's a good sign.
I know.
So even if nothing comes to this, it was a cool opportunity.
Yeah, totally.
It shows that they at least know I'm capable, whatever.
But the problem is the week of the show,
like Monday, Tuesday, the problem is I, the week of the show, like that, like Monday, Tuesday
or something like that, I have a, I have a, um, conflict that I like way earlier committed
to, like I'm filming for something in San Diego.
Oh, and so big conflict.
Yeah.
It's not like a, Oh, I'll be late.
Not a high walk to Kansas conflict.
Yeah.
And so it's like, uh, and it's like the week of the show, you gotta be at everything.
So that was ended up being like, there's a factor of like, I of the show, you got to be at everything. So that was, ended up being like the factor of like,
I wasn't cast,
but they said like,
I think I would have gotten a decent role,
which is like pretty exciting.
So it's like.
Sign of things to come.
Exactly.
So it's like a good.
You got in front of people,
you showed your talent.
It might be the best case scenario
because like I got to have a fun callback thing.
They like recognized that I was capable,
but it was like,
I also went up
the commitment
of a ton of time
and like we want this guy
but he's so busy
we might need to like
like create a role for him
pay him pretty well
like he's so in demand
I like the idea
of like them
rewriting the newsies
for you
like
we got to create
a new character
for this guy
but yeah
so that was
a fun experience
so are you
are you
like you're obviously graduating once you're done with, have you
done history yet?
Yeah.
We've been at a history check.
Okay.
We'll text Maria.
We'll talk to her about it.
Um, but, uh, like, are you wanting to continue to just like indefinitely?
You don't have to have the answers.
I don't know.
Maybe if it's fun, I'll do it.
But like, or are you like, cause obviously you want to do more video stuff.
Yeah.
It's a great question.
Cause I'm like, honestly, this one, I'm, I'm fairly open. Like my, or are you like, cause obviously you want to do more video stuff. Yeah. It's a great question. Cause I'm like, honestly, this one I'm, I'm fairly open. Like
my, I had a voice lesson yesterday. My teacher was like, do you, he was like, I've always wanted
to have a student of mine, like try auditioning for like sight and sound. He was like, cause like,
I don't know what their process is. Like they're very like separate from a lot of theater things,
like a whole, like the whole company's Christian. It's all like, right. He's like, he'd be curious
how that would go. Uh, so he was like, he'd be curious how that would go.
So he was like, that'd be a fun thing I could do.
So I don't know what that would even consist of if that would mean.
You're like a full-time employee.
I know, exactly.
You move into Lancaster or Branson now.
Yeah, if I would do that,
it's like I moved to Branson for like a year.
But I don't know.
That'd be awesome.
It would be super cool.
So yeah, I don't know.
It's like maybe I want to take advantage of the next couple of years.
Sure.
I don't know.
I'm not doing that much.
I love it.
Yeah.
I think you should absolutely have your options open with everything.
Like see what opportunities arise.
We have a ghosties, Mariah Garrett's a sight and sound gal.
So it's just interesting.
Cause like I, when I think about like me and like what I do, whatever, like singing or
like acting is like so far, like I'm like, I do whatever like singing or like acting is like so far like I'm
like I do videography and stuff I'm a video guy now I guess I'm capable I don't know so it's like
it'd be fun yeah yeah yeah cool man yeah but that's why that's all got a good draft in so
it's win-win on a drafted and newsy not very many people can say it was literally uh it was
probably the worst part of callbacks I was trying trying to, I was supposed to try to tap dance, which I can't do.
And so I was like, literally, I was like exactly at, what was it?
9 PM.
Yeah.
I like quick went, quick like went out to go to the bathroom and then like did my one
quarterback or whatever.
Who was that?
Jake Allen.
No, no, not Jake Allen.
That's the ghost.
Josh Allen. There you go. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Allen. That's the ghost. Josh Allen. There you go.
Yeah, yeah. And then
I do not remember my other one.
And then the other guy. Yeah, the other one. Do you know him?
Jake Delhomme.
Jake Delhomme. Good for you.
That's a fun update.
Did you have to wear tap shoes?
No.
I just wore like they had some extra kind of dress shoes type of thing,
like brown, like nice shoes.
Yeah.
I don't know.
I knew going into it, I was like,
this is not going to be any kind of strong suit for me in my auditions.
I'm just going to follow along and see how it works.
But yeah, I didn't do great, but it was fine.
How many times had you ever tried before that to tap dance?
I've never tried.
I think never.
I'm pretty sure that was my first time. Wow. Yeah go for it and even like the dance on it like there's dancing
and then tapping uh and like dance i'm not great at that either i was a little better than tap i
think yeah i don't know when i've seen you at green leaf productions you usually seem to have
more rhythm than the people you're next to okay well that's good so there's potential there from
what yeah cool yeah i don't know i'm just not super athletic but news is news is a pretty athletic show yeah that would have been pretty demanding but yeah
man it's like it is definitely bittersweet like it's like sure definitely would have been super
cool to be in newsies yeah just anecdotally it feels like i mean it's not the right word but
like without knowing the facts completely it feels like more and more people,
more and more productions are doing Newsies.
Is that true?
Maybe.
I don't know.
Like I know that we have the new theater.
Multiple high schools have done it recently in Kansas City.
That like dinner theater place in Kansas City
has done it for like a month or so.
Okay.
Yeah.
So it feels like it's becoming more popular.
So maybe you'll have another opportunity.
Maybe Theater in the Park will do it.
That'd be sweet.
That'd be sweet.
Or Greenleaf.
Hey.
I don't know.
I doubt it.
Yeah. It had to be a That'd be sweet. Or green leaf. Hey, I don't know. I doubt it. Yeah.
It had to be a little more Christian based.
Yeah.
But all right.
That's my,
that's my Bible.
You'll steal another.
So that's my cigar.
My bull,
my bull.
That's my Devo.
You'll steal.

Hi, Jacob Brad.
Your podcast means so much more to me
than just something funny to listen to.
I'm a 17-year-old girl from Colorado,
and I've been praying for my future husband.
I ask God for a man who will treat me the way you treat your wives.
How cool is that?
You guys are such role models for men and even for me.
Brad, you're an amazing dad, and someday I want to have my future husband do dad-a-days with my future kids.
You both have so many fun, wholesome traditions.
I hope to have similar ones in the future.
Thank you for shining God's light to everyone who listens and everyone who you meet.
I hope to learn from both of you.
You are both great friends and fathers.
Jake, I don't know yet.
I'm not on the most recent episode.
And great spouses.
And most importantly, amazing representatives of God.
Thank you for your podcast.
I love it.
