Brittany 9414 commented on our Branson Wednesday episode last week. It said, Brad losing weight? Heart emoji, heart emoji. Love to see that. And then Angela Birdwell commented, I didn't even recognize him at Social Birdie until someone pointed him out. Dude, you're unrecognizable. To be fair, I had a a facial hair wig and like sunglasses on

and dyed my hair black. I was doing a character role. It had nothing to do with your weight loss. Oh yeah, the rest of the comment says once he took his mask off, it was so good to see him. Right. Oh, never mind. Yes. Okay, so that's what it was about. Surprised he was in Branson and wearing a

mask. They don't love that there they didn't recognize me as that's very nice that's very kind thank you angela but it implies that i mean he's just if you didn't know what brad if you only listen on audio you'd be like well what does brad look like now he's you can't recognize him anymore holy cow is that brad or matthew mcconaughey from the dallas buyers club over there yeah is that american psycho look at him oh my gosh oh there's another comment replying to angela says yeah i went up to a man at branson who seemed like he was in charge and i said hey sir

excuse me i'm looking for brad i you must be a Holocaust survivor. Do you know where Brad is? I'm dumb. Sorry. This is stupid. Dude, you had me for a half second. I was like, you're reading a comment. And then you paused pretty hard.

And you're like, hey, sir. It's very hard to make up your own sentence while I was still reading Angela Birdwell's comment. I made that hard on myself. Why did I do that? Yeah, you shouldn't actually be looking at anything but like a blank space on your page. I was looking at her little face, her little profile picture. Whoa, Angela, I barely even recognize her in there.

Yeah, you look like a line. You look like a little girl. Nice. 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 Ghost Brothers Podcast. Everybody morning, we're taking round. Ghost Brothers Podcast. It's the Ghosts from the Spotcast. Ghosts from the Spotcast. Fun start, fun start. Tymon, thanks for laughing at my theater joke. No, yeah, no problem.

Line. Line. Oh, I was like, I missed the theater joke. Line. Line. Learned that from The Office. Yeah, me too. There's a million things I think I've learned from The joke. Fine. Learn that from the office. Yeah, me too. There's a million things I think I've learned from the office.

Yeah. I remember in high school, uh, doing some kind of, I was an AP English, not trying to brag, uh, but they had something about catch 22 and I knew what catch 22 was because of the office.

Really? When Michael uses it incorrectly, but kind of like, that's fun. Uh, diamond, we're back. How, how was the, the Branson weekend for you? How was your friends? How was Jesse? Jesse was great. I'll, uh, he had a good time. He had a great time. Um, can I interrupt real quick? Oh yeah. What is Jesse like? Is Jesse a, a second time in, but he's just quietly in the, in the, in,

in the shadows, right? Yeah. I was going to say the closet, but of course that quietly in the shadows right now? I was going to say the closet, but of course that's not the right analogy. But is he just like you, but just hasn't got the platform to get out there yet? Or is he a little bit quieter? He has a lot of different interests, I'd say. Like I will say, he's not like a podcast listener.

He doesn't really care to, I guess. I don't know. We can say whatever we want. Cool. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. I don't know. He's great.

He's just like, I guess, a little less, yeah, maybe a little more quiet around just like a bunch of random people. Yeah. Because he's what, two years younger? Yeah. He's 15. Or two and a half. Okay.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. He's great. He liked it, though. I was just curious. Like, what'sesse thinking right now yeah is jesse like someday someday i'm gonna find my ghost runners to do this with you know like

i don't think so okay yeah but yeah i don't know it was a it was a great weekend my friends loved it it was like and even them a lot of my i mean oliver probably listens out of out of them the most yeah okay and then like but then I know Graydon was like, I want to get back into it now. He's like, this is his part of it, like get back to listening. I appreciated Graydon's honesty of like, yeah, I haven't listened in a couple months and I don't have any good excuse why.

I just haven't listened. He's like, but I'm going to. He said that like three hours after he had asked me, hey, can I come to like the VIP, like kind of hang out? And I told him no. And now I was glad I did. I was like, you don can I come to the VIP hangout? And I told him no. And now I was glad I did. I was like, you don't even listen to the podcast, dude. No, you can't come? Of course not. Ridiculous question to ask. Go ride or ride.

Yeah. Figure out something else. Did you see how Jesse was dressed on Sunday? I saw how Gabe Oliver was dressed, dripping from head to toe. Oh, really? I like the way he was. I think I have the same shirt he has, the green stripes.

Yeah, wear that, bad boy. I'll wear it on Wednesday's episode. It was a nice green stripes with, he had the striped kind of corduroy-ish looking shorts. You like corduroy. You like dressing bow and corduroy, don't you? Maybe. I like corduroy. You like it, don't you?

I got my corduroy hat here for next episode. Wow. Yeah. Peel back the curtain there. Peel back theroy. You like it, don't you? I got my corduroy hat here for next episode. Wow. Yeah. Peel back the curtain there. Peel back the curtain. Was that pretty cool? You guys? Yeah. Line? Theater jokes left and right. Speaking of Gabe Oliver,

him and Maddie... What? Gabe Oliver? Gabe Oliver. Speaking of my gay friend, Gay and Maddie are fishing in Kansas City. We had our first volleyball game with them last night. Oh.

Really fun. Cole and Talia Ford showed up. Okay. Daniel Saraming showed up. Okay. Celia O'Brien showed up. They're like, Branson's not over yet, baby. Yeah, we had more fans than we had players.

It was awesome. Is this sand or is this? Yeah, sand volleyball. Me, Rachel, Gay, Maddie, and just us four. And it was a blast. We had so much fun. Yeah. I had people supporting us, cheering us on.

Gabe was like, Hey, it's so fun already being here. Maddie met Claire Talaferro just out in public. Oh, nice. It's like, that's so awesome. How did she know her? Or they just were talking. I think Maddie was just like, I just moved here. And Claire was like, why'd you move here?

Do you know anyone here? She's like, I only know these two guys. And Claire was like, I randomly know those two guys. That's crazy. Claire could absolutely pass as your sister. Thanks. She should start saying like, oh yeah, that's my brother. Oh.

Like, I listen to the podcast. I think, yeah, he doesn't talk about me much. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Redhead. Yeah, right. But Gabe was like, you are are gonna have to find a sub for the next two weeks and i was like where are you leaving already he said i got a call from my old

hospital in hawaii in hawaii right now they're they have a nurse's strike and so they need nurses super badly it's always like i leave at 6 a.m tomorrow morning whoa and i'm gonna spend two weeks there or until the strike is over whoa and maddie's staying here and they could just do that like the hospital in kansas city's fine with like oh yeah no problem or you had to get permission he was like hey i have it's been a great day here i really have liked it um i just got this call you know i have a chance to um you know i think it's like make quite a bit he said he has to work out of seven days. He's working six 12 hour shifts. Wow.

And after like three of those, he gets paid overtime, like time and a half. Right. So it's like, yeah, it's hard to pass that up. So does that mean he making three times as much money?

Did I do that right? Over the course of like, yeah, maybe four. Cause the first line, the first three days would be regular pay. And then the next three days would be one and a half times. Yeah. So is that, that's just two and a half times i don't know time to figure it out no idea call jesse you've passed math you i know you haven't done your history yet but

um that's oh but yeah kind of crazy and he said it's not this doesn't seem like very aloha of him he said when nurses are on track this happened before and it's like not super safe it's not, this doesn't seem like very aloha of him. He said when nurses are on track, this has happened before, and it's like not super safe. It's safe for the, well, basically they're getting a car service from the, which, hey, been told that before. Yeah, sure you are, buddy. It may not happen. But getting like a chauffeur from the airport to the hospital.

Because it's so like, tensions are high. The strike is so, yeah, tensions are high. They said last time they were like bashing out windows and stuff. They gonna be like having picket yeah picket lines but it's like bamboo and like coconuts i like the idea of like hawaiian picket lines just being like the nicest you know like so they're still like hulaing back and forth like we demand fair wages yeah No, no, we won't go. No, no, we won't go. What do we want? Fair wages. When do we want it?

Whenever, bruh. Whenever. Whenever, brada. Hopefully not on high tide, bruh. Yeah. Yeah, whenever the waves are weak so we can work. What do we want? Banana bread.

When do we want it? For free. It's not a time. time i'm just i'm hooling though okay hey i'm hooling here i'm hooling here oh that's not very aloha is right though what do we want yeah road to hana guide muchacho when do we want it Whenever you want to come on by, sister. You let us know. Yeah. Justice for Lilo and Stitch. Is that good? When do we want it? Banana bread.

So that's the Hawaiian nurses strike. We wanted to talk about that and shed some light. So what I'm hearing is that Gay Bolivar enjoyed Kansas city so much that he left after one day yes that's amazing yep spent about 48 hours here and got out of here you know one day of work and um he's out but the nurse's strike could end anytime that's true too so he might be back sooner katherine told me she's like we need to have them over for dinner and i was like like, great. And I, you know, I should have texted them right then because now it might be too late. Too late. Who knows if the nurses strike keeps going. Yeah. And also, they don't move

very fast in Hawaii. You know, like, yeah, we'll do it when we do it. All right. In this thing, whenever. So, yeah, that's fun. That's my update on Gabe Bolivar. Gabe Bolivar. That's fun. There were a handful of like kind of like feminine people in college. And I was like, you're, that's fun. That's, that's my update on Gabe Bolivar. Gabe Bolivar. That's fun. There were a handful of like, kind of like feminine people in college.

And I was like, you're kind of a gay ball. Yeah. There's a certain club that you don't go to on the outskirts of town. Uh, yeah. Was that rusty Pete's? No, no, even further. No banana slings. Yep. A lot of gay Bolivars there. Um, let's go back to timing though. though. Tymon, Jesse's been in the... No, I'm just kidding. Oh, he was dressed. He looked really cool.

Do you remember what he looked like? Oh, yeah. You know how sometimes Tymon will dress really cool? It was like, he's better than that. And what does Tymon always say? Probably that Jesse held me out. He's like, yeah, Jesse got me... Those shoes are like, yeah, Jesse bought those shoes.

Yeah. Yeah. I have no fashion sense. And so I just asked Jesse, does this look stupid? Or does it look fine? Uh, and so that's like,

uh, be brutal. Like, I'm just going to assume it's bad. Yeah. Do I look stupid? Well, and he's like my brother.

So he's the only one that'll like, tell me that looks dumb. And so like, um, yeah, I mean, I, I'll just dress bare minimum.

Like this looks fine. And he'll like, he'll, he'll dress up a little bit. He'll, he, he, I mean, I'll just dress bare minimum like this looks fine. And he'll dress up a little bit. He drips out. Yeah, I had no idea he was quite the hype beast. So describe what he was wearing. Like a Jordan gray and black sweatshirt had to be steaming in there. Yeah. And then.

Price you pay. Some nice pants. And then these like really nice, I'm not a shoe guy, but these silver and gray Jordan shoes. All of our new. Jordan 4s maybe? He was like, oh, those are, they have a name, right? Oh, those are the Glacier Js or something like that.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I don't know. Yeah, but they look cool. I don't know. Yeah. I don't know. Yeah. That shit looks cool.

He's a cool guy. Give me some, I know this is off the top of your head. So if you can't think of them right away, we can talk for a little bit and give you some time. Ask for a line. Give me, give me some, I know this is off the top of your head. So if you can't think of them right away, we can talk for a little bit and give you some time. Give me, give me some like, just, just we'll call them like kind of micro, micro joys from the weekend, micro memories, like little things, whether it's like, oh, it was really fun.

Just a silly thing that my friends and I said in line waiting for the time traveler or like, oh yeah, this one interaction or any, anything you can think of like that, that was just like, yeah, oh, that was just a small, like I,

I thought expected friendship, like on the way to silver city on Saturday, I went to Starbucks and I don't know. Yeah. I didn't anticipate seeing anybody for whatever reason. Maybe that was silly of me, but Elizabeth Virgil, Pam Grosvenor,

I don't know. Oh yeah. And Bailey Morton, uh, these, these three women were there, uh, getting their coffee. And it was, it was a small joy to just like talk to them for 20 minutes. And then we drove, you know, separately to Silverado city, but we're in the same little shuttle bus there. And so I sat next to Bailey. It was just like a fun, like wasn't expecting that, but that was a fun, fun little time, you know, or like, I feel like I had good, like one-on-one conversations with Nathan Cooley, who I've texted and talked to multiple times.

You know, obviously he's been our video editor for different things before and, and Will S Will S yeah. Yeah. Just fun, fun times with like some random ghosties, um, one-on-one random times. Uh, but yeah, just, just little small things like that. Did he have anything like that time? Um, I think one thing was finding a really good pickable match between me and Graydon and

Cole and Tabitha. Oh yeah, Tabitha. Thank you. Let's keep it going. Just like, it was just a great match because we were both having a ton of fun, but also they were definitely better than us, but enough where it was like, but not too much better where it was not fun. It was like a good challenge for us.

And we beat them in one game, which was great. Yeah. Yeah. Um, Oh yeah. I showed up at the end of that and you guys were getting beat like nine to two and you're like,

we beat him last game. We beat him last game. So it's more even than it looks. Something happened. Dude, that happens sometimes. It's uncle Mo momentum. Just lose it.

Absolutely. A few cheap points go their way or something. Yeah. And then i think probably just like maybe this is more a big win but just like singing this is me with mariah was truly like yeah it was electric really yeah yeah yeah and like yeah i was telling jake it's a bummer i didn't like meet mariah more like talk to her more like uh but yeah i just like that was how it just happened to it, yeah, we went separate

green rooms, separate dressing rooms. You go on stage and then you go your separate ways. Yeah. So that was great. That was electric. That was so fun. That was fun. Yeah.

In hindsight, would we have done that longer or would it have, was it just perfect the way it was? You think like, I don't know. Cause I, during that song, I kept telling you, I was like, don't stop this one. Keep it going. Let it go. It's not the good parts's not even here yet. Let's let it go, man.

Because every once in a while, I was like, okay, great. We get the point. Brad's dancing around to Britney Spears. 50 seconds. That's good enough for that one. But this one, I was like, no, let him cut. You know what's funny? That reminds me. I don't know who it was. It could have been any of them

because all the ghosties are so nice. But I think we were waiting in line together and they're like, I'm singing your guys' praises. Isn't that so fun? And the thing is, it's even harder than it looks. Like Brad is so good at this.

Everyone thinks it's easier and Tyman killed it. Mariah was awesome. Dominic. And she's like, you know, it's really hard to know what songs to choose for that

and when to stop playing them. And I was like, that is very nice of you, but I promise you there's nothing I'm doing that deserves any encouragement from blind karaoke. You're working the computer. There's places you can click on that screen that will not pause it. That's true. Outside of the view box. Yeah.

And sometimes if you click out and then you press space bar, it'll just go down the page. It'll page down. It won't, it won't pause it, you know? And then you sometimes press the play on the keyboard and that just plays your iTunes for some reason. Good luck. Now you got two songs playing. Yeah. So you really managed that well. Thanks. To be fair though, I'm not even trying to like whatever, but you did a great job of clicking a song really quickly, but then like getting it full screen so that not everyone saw what song was coming. Cause that was, that was half the joy for me. That was kind of funny timing. So like, and I, I mean, it's just the ghosties being fun, but like, so all these karaoke songs, obviously we can't see the words. We don't

know what song it is, but the ghosties I'll see it on the back of our, behind us on the screen. And so, you know, there's like this little five second little like logo noise. Yeah. And then all of a sudden it, you know, pops up, you know,

Britney Spears. Oops. I did it again. And the ghosties every time, which was like, Oh, Oh, Oh,

Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh,

Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh,

Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh,

Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh,

Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, And so that was pretty fun to like, And then there was always a little bit of a pause after they show the title before the music starts so it was just like so if they if you would have done that too slowly they would have seen it too quickly they wouldn't have reacted the same so there you go thanks so whoever said that was on their game they knew what they're talking about

i was like this is just the epitome of ghosties being so nice. You know what? You don't have a very easy job either, clicking the video and deciding karaoke. And you had 25 songs. You didn't choose all of them. You were selective. Yes. Did you go in order?

We were bouncing. No, no, no. See? Jake. Jake. Not everyone could do that. Thank you, guys. Come that. Thank you, guys. Come on.

Thank you, guys. And you did like crossfades in between songs? No, just hard, hard. That's it. That's it. Round of applause. Round of applause. Yeah, too many clicks.

Too many clicks. Did you have any micro memories? The first thing that came to mind was I i ran a mile with a small crew uh before so we were sitting um which is great to do it before because it was such a long day and uh i just forgot it's been a while since i've ran with someone i was like it's so much easier to get your mile done this way and just like you're in a new spot there's new things to look at we're all talking we're chitting we're chatting yeah it was um caleb lee led the way shout out caleb lee he's ran his mile every single day dude do you want to talk about a quick shout out for Caleb Lee?

He's got some calves on him. Dude, he's a beast. My dad's calling. He always, I swear, he's like, oh, you're recording again? It's Wednesday morning. Okay. Caleb Lee, I am on his close friend's story. Did you see this? It was Labor Day. I was like, around Labor Day.

No, it was literally Labor Day because he had a day off work. The dude's a machine. Decided. Yep. I was like, around Labor Day. No, it was literally Labor Day because he had a day off work. The dude's a machine. Decided. Oh! Yep. Yep. Yep, yep, yep. Listen to this, Tymon. I'm listening. Decided. You better be floored. So he's like, Labor Day. I'm deciding I'm going to run one mile every single hour

for 24 hours straight. Just for fun. 24 hours straight for fun. That's awesome. And like initially like was running a very fast mile even like his slowest mile was like in the sevens like yeah he's a machine yeah and just ran it like i think there were a few times where he got you know 30 minutes of sleep in between or whatever yeah but then at the end you know he's he's on mile 25 and 26 and he's like or no sorry 23 24 gave it away uh and he's like you know what if sorry, 23, 24 gave it away. Uh, and he's like, you know what,

if I just run 2.2 miles or 2.1, both these times, and I could do 26.2 total and I can run a marathon in a day. So I'm going to do that. So at the very end, after he had already run 22 miles, he decided I'm going to run two miles and two miles in an hour and ran a random marathon in 24 hours, which is unbelievable. That is wild. That's the kind of like mental toughness or discipline, whatever that is. Some people just have that. I feel like some people don't. I do not. I agree. I wouldn't have her. I think Rachel has that a little bit. I could see Rachel being like for fun. I'm going to try and push myself. I'm so close to a marathon. And that's, yes, I agree with you. I think Rachel does have it. And that's the thing

about what it seems like with Rachel is like, it'd be hard for her, but it's not, she wouldn't like be breaking down, you know, at 4 a.m. and be like, this is terrible. What am I thinking? This is, oh, like, whereas you and I would be like, I might, I might die. Jesse, am I dumb?

Do I look stupid? Do I look stupid doing this? Yeah, Rachel would be like, you know, at four and five, it's kind of nice. I went AirPods out because the birds were starting to chirp. Totally. Two bird miles. And then all these old men got up and they started walking around. So there was like one like old man like wagon mile.

That was really cute. Yeah. Yeah, it's almost like this like sicko mode of like what? Yeah. You enjoy this? Yeah. And he seemed like there was times where he definitely regretted it, but he had friends come with him a few times.

Yeah. I saw that. So anyway. That's pretty neat. It was really cool to watch. I love talking to Caleb Lee too. Yeah. He has the most chill vibe.

Yeah. I think that's gas. It's so gas. Yeah. That's Nashville. You know, like people in Nashville are like that. Is that where he is, Nashville? I think.

He's got that Kentucky. No, Kentucky. Yeah. I met him in Nashville, so that maybe tainted? Nashville? I think he's got that Kentucky. No, Kentucky. Yeah. Uh, I met him in Nashville, so that may be tainted my view. No, Nashville is close to Kentucky.

They are border cities. Yes, exactly. Yeah, that's it. Uh, he's got that nice accent though. It's just fun to listen to.

And at various points of the podcast, I've mentioned how I, I always see Caleb Lee's friends and family, but rarely Caleb Lee. That's right. His mom was like somewhere. Yes, I met his mom somewhere, and then I met his sister at our Florida trip.

At like the outside evil spot? Alice Beach. Yeah, yeah. Sister and friends, whatever. Either way, he's a man. Okay, so Caleb was running with you. Yeah. Nathan Coley was there.

He kind of helped organize it. And then some of Tymon's friends. Not all of Tymon's friends. Just Oliver and Graydon. Did you? Oh, yeah. And then some of Tymon's friends. Not all of Tymon's friends. Just Oliver and Graydon. Did you? Oh, yeah. And Tymy. Yeah, and then me and Rachel.

Cool. Which I mentioned last week, Rachel got her wisdom teeth out. And so, you know, they actually told her not to run. She's like, I could still run. Sicko mode, dude. That's what I'm talking about.

I might bleed a little out of my mouth, but it'll be fine. But she just runs, so to have less impact, because that's the dangerous part, is she just runs really smooth and really slow. I love that, dude. It was pretty funny looking.

It's like she's gliding. But we were also saying how funny it looked, because we're just in a Silver City parking lot just running around, and Rachel's behind us, and so it looks like she's just chasing us. We're just running away from Rachel, and she can't catch us. And she's was like, it looks like she's just like chasing us. Like we're just running away from Rachel and she can't catch us.

And she's like taking like Scooby-Doo villain strides. Is she having fun? Right? Like what is this girl doing? Why does she run normal? Dude? Rosie's been doing this funny thing. Like, like she'll like kind of run like that.

Like where she's almost like, like bounding. Imagine like flexing like your body as you're running. And she's kind of like running at like, we'll say three quarters speed. So she'll just like run around. Like, it's like, okay, it's time to go to bed. She'll just be like, like kind of like be bending down a little bit. I need to see this.

It's so, it's like, she looks like an old man running basically. And it's kind of like what I'm imagining Rachel looking like where she's just like keeping her head straight the whole time. Just like kind of shifting her body. And it's so, so funny yeah fun fact uh we were thinking about uh running a mile in the park remember that oh yeah yeah maybe i had an idea to like run it to the american plunge or something like a twilight um and it was it was one of those things was like uh like they they natalie tried to figure out ways to make it work and she's like i don't think it's safe to just have a bunch of people running shout out natalie though natalie hey click on the click on the thing natalie natalie give it up for natalie

yeah he doubled it up he really yeah you went for it oh man, yeah. Another another little micro joy for me in Branson was I learned that Tabitha, a.k.a. Talia, she does not like like when you're awkward, like with strangers and stuff. Oh, like how you live, basically, especially at places like, you know, I love everybody. So in our city. All the workers have name tags, you know, all these people in line, you're never going to see him again. So it's just like, I just love asking just like, that's in his element. Oh dude. And so it's,

you ask for directions for things that don't exist. How'd we get to bungalow ride? So you guys ever rode bungalow? So I went down, I went down, you know, peach tree city, but then I'm like,

well, it's a, I'm looking for the four or five and I just don't see it there. And it's the one with the spins, right? Your spinner. You guys like the one with the spins, right? Your spinner. You guys like the spinners spent the, you guys are spinner people and she just can't handle it.

Oh no. She, she mentioned, and I think Cole and Colin there, his friend like also are kind of in the same, like they enjoy that kind of humor. And so the, the,

the very simple, but very fun question to ask people as you're like passing them while you're kind of like rotating in line. It was just like, Hey guys, how was it? Cause they're in line. They're like only six people in front of you. Yes. And a lot of times it's fun to like, this is, this is going to sound awkward cause it is awkward. But to ask like the 11 year old kid and watch their mom, like, Hey,

how was it? What'd you guys think? What'd you guys think of that? How was it, guys? Be so honest. How was it? Because it's one thing to ask somebody when they're coming back from your switch, rotating out the roller coasters. It's another thing.

Just be like, so what'd you guys think? About that part of the line? You have to time it perfectly to where you can stop for just a second and look at them and then just that part of the line you have to time it perfectly to where you can stop for just a second and look at them and then just keep walking and so like even if they do respond you know italia is just like i want to leave right now another phone call that was my paw again okay um anyway so small joys and branson you got any other ones oh dude sorry uh we got to talk about the water right at the end that's what

i was gonna say i think that was what came to mind so yeah first of all i can't i not a day has gone by where i don't think to myself how did i lose to blueberry sauce and arby's sauce blueberry syrup that was a hundred percent a uh outside outsider's job hundred percent the people on instagram really let me down yeah logical can i can i go ahead and throw out uh what's the word not crucified but like i'm gonna i'm gonna hate on zach real quick i i thought i gave zach pretty direct instructions of like type in yes will you will you please type in everybody's answers and then just do a poll like one slide for everything you can do the whole thing before you said you before you said you would ask Zach to do it.

I was planning on just typing it out on Facebook as we were recording. Yes. Yeah. Zach steps in. Zach, who didn't run his mile with us. No. Zach, who has an opportunity to get on the mic, talks way deeper than he actually talks. So I was just wondering.

No. What's up, guys? Zach here. Hey, it's me, Zach. Yeah, so all he did was, who do you think won s'mores? I think is what it was. Yeah, who won s'mores? Jake Brad Tymon.

And so, yeah, it just looked like. That's so Zach. Yeah. I will say though. I trusted you, Zach. You can probably see on the video at some point, like the first like five, ten minutes of the recording, Zach's just frantically texting me like, I don't have Brad's phone. I'm supposed to do this thing.

I don't have Brad's phone. I'm like, I'm sure you can just, when it's time, you can just get the phone from him. What else did he say? I don't know. I can't find the text, but just like he was frantic. And then he's just like, so what exactly is going on? I'm like, okay, well, just like explaining everything.

I thought he understood a little bit more. So we're going to do s'mores on sauces. He's like, okay. All right. All right. Sounds good. Got it. But yeah, do s'mores on uh sauces he's like okay all right all right that sounds good got it yep but yeah then i'm like i think he was asking like well do i have to type everything out i'm like i mean if you can that's probably ideal but if you somehow for some reason if it's like too hard just oh so time in but i just figured he probably could do the but we went pretty slow no i don't know it's yeah in though, I think it was the perfect way of doing it because I lost, so I have to,

and then you guys jump in. Yeah, everyone. And I don't know if it would, maybe it still would have been that way, but I don't know. I tried to take off my shirt and run around the park, and they're like,

sir, you have to have your shirt on for this ride. I was like, makes sense. It's the water ride. No, it's a water ride. Yeah, totally. I get it. Yeah. Dude, we got soaked.

I don't know why I thought I wouldn't get soaked. I didn't think the bottom half of me would have gotten as soaked. We were in water up to our knees. Oh, it targets the bottom half. It was wild, dude. And then at the end, if you happen to be in the wrong place, then you're completely wet. Which we were.

Yeah, the four of us. Yeah. That was a really, really fun and unique memory, though. We were like 10 p.m. at night. We're the last people in Sylvar City. It's so dark out. All of a sudden, we're unique memory though we were like 10 p.m at night we're the last people in silvar city it's so dark out all of a sudden we're riding this ride that's like well this is a legitimate roller coaster this isn't like we'll take you real high and then you'll go in the water this is like we're going faster as a conveyor belt you and i love the conveyor belt the conveyor belt was unbelievable that was pretty sweet um hard to even describe

exactly how it works it's like a how i imagine the carvana cars getting up to the top of those things but with us in a tube i bet they are yeah they they have the patent and they're selling it to carvana yeah um but yeah it's just fun it was like and somebody made the comment in our raft like we will never be in this kind of circle in this environment again this is the only time it's ever going to happen that was a sweet yeah sweet moment it was like this is great man into birdwell was in there right now for the second time today i was like hey time it's ever going to happen. That was a sweet, yeah, sweet moment. It was like, this is great, man. Anta Birdwell was in there writing it for the second time today. I was like, hey, it's pretty funny to get to sit next to Brad. She's like, that's who that is?

Oh, my gosh. I was wondering. His voice was kind of out, and so I didn't understand. And Izzy was in there. Samuel Sin was in there. Raleigh Woods. Raleigh Woods was in there. Colin.

Colin was in the mix. Colin, a.k.a. Tom. Tom Colin. It was just fun. It was great. Do we hit everybody a.k.a. Tom. Tom Colin. So. It was just fun. It was great. Do we hit everybody? I want to make sure we didn't lose.

All right. Me and you right next to each other. Who'd you have on your left? I don't want to answer that way. Because I don't remember for sure. I think it was Izzy, but maybe it wasn't. No, no, no. Izzy was across from me.

She was across. Was Colin next to me? Don't. Don't. I don't know. Izzy. Colin calling Raleigh Birdwell yeah we had one more one or two no I think I'd see you're into my right oh Samuel sin yeah because he was worried about his fantasy team I don't know Jordan love did I ever doubt Jordan love run. I was down. Jordan Love. I was down. Who was the last one? Oh, boy.

We have until the end of the episode to figure it out. Okay. Who was it? Oh, was it Cooley? Was it Cooley? Yeah, I was just about to say. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I think it was. Yeah, it was Cooley.

I swear I was just about to say that. All right, we figured it out. Good. We don't even have to look up anything. What were you going to look up? I was going to look up that video and like, um, yeah, man, that was great. That was just so fun. Everything about it was so fun. We were laughing so hard. I just thought this is so fun. So raising the roof, raising the roof, baby. Um, yeah. And then

let's talk about the Sunday service a little bit. That was fun. Yeah. Yeah. That was awesome. I'm going to try to pull up that thing that I talked about real quick, if you want to preface anything beforehand. Yeah. So Sunday service was awesome. Sycamore Creek Ranch. Sycamore Creek Ranch. Yep.

It's a spot in kind of Northeast Branson. Really cool. This is the location of my first ever wedding video, which was really fun. Yeah, tell that. It was interesting, uh, not a flood of memories, but like a lot, just, I think when you have a, even a somewhat emotional experience somewhere, it's easier to like have memories from that. This is my, um, Jake triplet school of psychology. That's how I view things. But like, because I was so nervous that day, I think those memories are

more like solid in my head. Oh, sure. I remember how nervous I was. My first wedding video. And I remember there was this old windmill in a field by itself. There's nothing else around it. And I remember flying that drone around the windmill being like, this is so sick.

This is so sick right now. I'm flying around the windmill. Yeah, Jacob Carley, Ashley Culberson. Shout out to them. Let me film their wedding back in the day. I think eight years ago, back before I knew anything, I made $400.

Not bad for the first one. And you edited it and everything. Yep, did it all. First time color grading, I'm pretty sure. In hindsight, it was probably a little too orange. Oh, really? From what I remember. You know, that was the trend back then.

It was fall, it was foliage. Hey, you look tan. You're welcome. But yeah, it was fun being back there. Just like fall. It was foliage. Hey, you look tan. You're welcome. It was fun being back there. I was just like, oh yeah, this is it. And so it's beautiful. It's just awesome there.

And Brad and Tymon led worship, which was great. Everyone just looked great. And then Jinted came in and gave a message. And my dad can't stop talking about it. He loves Tymon and Mariah singing. He's listened to that 40 times, he claims.

And I bet that is close. Like genuine. It's not just like saying that. Yeah, but it's like every time he gets in the car, he listens to it a couple more times. And then Jensen gave such an incredible message. My dad is also big on that. He says it's the best sermon he's ever heard.

He loves it. I love that. I love how like extreme your dad is. You know, has he always been that way? Yeah. Where he's like heard. He loves it. I love that. I love how like extreme your dad is. Yeah. You know, has he always been that way? Yeah. Or he's like, that was amazing. That was the most fun I've ever had. You see that guy over there to high school with him. He's the dumbest guy. You really are the dumbest guy. Um, I can't find, I wish that you could like go back to your memories. Cause it was one of those like Facebook memories that just popped up, but it was 10 years ago. Yeah.

So I was trying to find, um, so Angela last or sorry, Angela, um, couldn't even recognize you, Angela. I know Elizabeth Virgil last episode,

Branson episode asked us a full circle moments. And you know, it was hard to think about those on the spot and whatever, but it was, as I was going to bed that night, I pull up my Facebook and I see a great full circle moment. And it was Jake's post from September. It was like literally 10 years to the day. I think it was September 14th or whatever that was, uh,

13th. Um, but it was 10 years earlier. So September 13th, 2020, 2014. So shortly after Catherine and I have been married, we got married January of 2014, right? Like literally like weeks into your working at k-life right like yeah it's probably my second club or something i think it was the first time you ever spoke at club okay yeah and there was just this picture of like the club room in the basement there's just dingy basement with like so many people like so many kids just like packed into this thing um and there's me in the corner like like with my guitar, there's Peter over here, you know, sitting down and yeah, yeah, yeah.

And, and you just wrote like, like, this is so fun, you know, to be able to have fun with people and to worship or, you know, teach them about Jesus. So crazy that I get to do this as my job. And it was like literally 10 years later, you know, you've got a guitar in your hands. I got a guitar. We got about a hundred people in front of us. We are now so much closer than we ever were back. Like I barely knew you back then, you know, like that was very initial times. Yeah. Still doing like so many fun things, but also trying to keep Jesus at the, you know, at the center of it

all. And it was just a cool, I got emotional thinking about it and talking about it probably also because I was very, very tired, you know, but like, you know, everything just gets more emotional when you're tired. But I was just like, that was, it was so sweet to think about that full circle moment. It was cool. It was on the same exact day. Crazy. I mean, yeah. And that you saw it. And that I saw it. Facebook memories.

Cause I've been bricked so often. So anyway, um, anyway, shout out to full circle moments. I really liked that. But yeah, the Sunday service was sweet. Tymon and I did very little preparation for music together. And it's one of those things where when you know somebody well enough, you can trust them and be like, you're going to be just fine. Yeah. You guys did great. Yeah.

It was great. It was awesome. And Jensen, yeah, the message he gave, initially I was like, I don't know about this. Because it's like very much like a dramatization, like a story. It's not like a classic like. All right. We're going to be in 2 Corinthians. Right.

Yeah. And, but it really, I mean, it got to me for sure. It was a really sweet time and just really fun to see him use his gifts well. And I was really thankful for that. So that's all I kept thinking because part of Jensen's talk was about like stewarding your gifts well and your talents well. And I'm sitting there just being like, look at time and look at Brad, look at Jen. They're doing it. I'm sitting here and I get to enjoy it. This is awesome. It was, it was really sweet. So, um, overall just a wonderful, just a great weekend weekend. Yeah.

Just continuing to think about it. Continuing to buzz. We got, we got Napanee coming up. I think we'll buzz. We're talking buzzing. Yeah. Buzz, buzz, buzz, buzz, buzz, line. Um, yeah.

Speaking of Napanee, we're sponsored by main street roasters. Yes. We're going to mainstream. We're headed to major. That's the next chapter in this bad boy. Yep. Um, and let's, let's give them. And let's give them firm details next week. How about that?

Great. But I would start looking for hotels now in the Napanee area. Jake and I still need to iron out exactly what we're doing, exactly what it's going to look like and everything. But if you want to come see us in Napanee, we will be there in October. It's going to be so much fun. And yeah, we're sponsored by Main Street Roasters.

But it does feel like just more and more, like, I think people are coming to these events less and less for us and more and more for the community. Dude, 100% agree. Like people like Alvaro, saying his name just reminded me. Like, I think people like Alvaro and Samuel and Janelle, like, they don't even talk to

us anymore. They don't even, I'm kind of joking, but. don't even, they don't even talk to us anymore. They don't even, I'm kind of joking, but yeah, no, no, I'll, I'll continue on that path.

Catherine was asking me like who all was there and, you know, saying all these names. Lisa Gluck was there, but I barely talked to Lisa. Laura Wilhite was there. I don't, I don't,

I think she's doing well. I don't know. I hope so. I didn't talk to her, but you know, like, and then I talked to Sarah Ming near the end, you know,

saying goodbye, whatever. And she talked about, so Sarah near the end, saying goodbye, whatever. And she talked about – so Sarah, this is – we've seen her a million times now. Not truly, but we know her quite a bit. And she's come to Florida and then to Gulf Shores. And she said on the way to Gulf Shores that she was getting so excited to see the Millers, the Olivers, all these people that she hadn't seen in a long time. And then she said, I almost forgot that Jake and't seen in a long time. Um, and, and then she said, I almost forgot that Jake and Brad were going to, and I loved that dude. Yeah. It takes that

pressure off. Totally. And it's like, that's how it should be. It should be like a reunion. Like, like no one's better or higher than anyone else. Like we're all hanging. It's just like, we're friends and we're, it's just so cool. I mean, there were a bunch of ghosties that were veteran, you were veteran returning event people that got a huge house. There was like 20 some of them that got a huge Airbnb. Yeah.

Which was so cool. Shout out to Ashley Meyer for coordinating that. I had no idea. I get to the social birdie and they're like, oh, we're staying in the house. And I was like, what are you referring to? And like, oh yeah, Ashley coordinated this like 25 person Airbnb we're all staying at.

I was like, I want to stay there. That's awesome. I heard at one point they were taking a group picture like ghosty island people, ghosty island people were taking a picture. And I was like, I want to stay there. That's awesome. I heard at one point they were taking a group picture, like ghosty Island people, ghosty Island people were taking a picture. And I was like, cool. Brad, get out of here. Brad, you take it. Oh, Brad. Yeah. Brad, do you not take a picture? Yeah. I did take a picture of somebody. I forget who it was, but like something like that, like friends, like I wasn't in it. That was like, honestly, that could have been my comment of the week, my win of the week, whatever it was. Like,

I honestly forgot Jake and Brad were even going to be there. Yeah. We're just at this point, not, not for everybody. And I'm so happy to like get to know people and whatever, but we're also just to an extent facilitating an event for these people to come to, which is so, so cool. So yeah, barely talked to the Ming's, but they're doing great from what I know. Yeah.

You know, Hey, hey they they support volleyball they support local volleyball that's right so support local so uh yeah i don't have anything else in my notes specifically about branson so yeah i think that's it i think we recapped it pretty well um let's see can i tell you about this uh stand-up show i had last week yes so it was the night before Branson. And I don't even remember how much we've talked about it on the podcast, but the day before, I found out it was Business Professional. Yes.

And so I went out to... Made a little trip by Jose Bank. Oh, yeah. I'm an old excuse to buy something here. I found a super on clearance, just like a light blue blazer to wear. It was kind of nice. Yeah.

Never performed in a blazer or whatnot. So this is for the North American Lottery Association. So like all 50 states, all 13 provinces, whatever they have in Canada. Wow. Who cares? They're all represented. So there's about 500 people in the convention center ballroom. That's a lot of people.

So it is super high ceilings, a lot of lights on. Everyone's in a suit. a lot of lights on everyone's in a suit a lot of lights on prime for comedy yeah um but everyone's at like a table like yeah everyone's at a table and it really was like this you know at least the room is full like this may not be too bad because before i got there they spent an hour just in a lobby drinking basically yeah i was like this could be great sure i don't't know. But yeah, so I go on at eight and I'm supposed to go for like 15, 20 minutes and then dinner is like at 8.30.

And so I was like, that's pretty late. And this is their third day. This is like the last night. Like this is the end of the conference. Is that all you're doing is 15, 20 minutes? That was it. And then some emceeing. Okay.

You didn't do like half your act and then come back on later or something. Correct. Okay. And so right off the top, I was like, well, let me like kind of make a Correct. Okay. And so right off the top, I was like, well, let me like kind of make a joke about this. And so I joke like, you know,

when I accepted this job to do standup comedy, I was really excited. I did not know I was going to be the one thing standing in your way from eating dinner and just crickets to start it off. So lottery, lottery people. Yeah. I wasn't expecting them to, you know, they're known for being tough crowd, burn the house down. But I was like, okay, this is going to be, this is going to be people. Yeah. Yeah. I wasn't expecting them to, you know, they're known for being tough crowd, burn the house

down. But I was like, okay, this is going to be, this is going to be something. Yeah. And, um, yeah, so it was a rough ride for a little bit, but, um, but it wasn't too bad. Just things that normally like probably the biggest laugh I get in my whole set is when I, the bidet joke. And I say a little bit of water came out of my mouth. I'm used to it.

Like, yeah, kind of erupting. And like, I give it like seven, eight seconds for it to calm down. And this is like a little bit of water came out of my mouth. And the reason I got, you know, it's just like, I just go right into it. Like it just, no laugh takes any amount of time. It's like, hi, we're done. Yeah. So, uh, did you feel like people were like giving you the respect of listening? Like, was it pretty quiet at least at At the end, we had some chatterboxes, but I tried to power through. Because that's tough. That would be the hardest thing for me is like, they're just absolutely not trying to care. Yeah, it was fine.

I mean, luckily, I'm not in a position where I'm testing new material. I'm not nervous up there. You know, like this material works. I know it works. I've tested different audiences like this. These people just maybe aren't laughing really loudly, but I think it's, they're enjoying it quietly to themselves.

I'm not stressing or whatever, but then I get done and I just go out to the dinner tables to join them. Essentially. There's no backstage. There's nowhere else to go. So I just go join the table and I'm at the Missouri table and I sit back down and everyone just kind of like, it's not silence, but they all just kind of start beginning to talk amongst themselves. And I was like, you know,

I don't need you to say much, but like a, like a sympathy, like, Hey, good job up there or whatever. Sure. So they just like, way to be talking to themselves. And then eventually one old man kind of breaks the ice about five minutes into it. he goes, son, you write your own material? And you go, yes, I do, of course. He goes, huh. No. He just goes back to eating. It was worse.

He haunts you? Hmm. Hmm. Okay. Yeah, I kept eating. I was like, I would have rather you stayed silent. That was worse. Oh, yeah.

That was as good as you could do? Yeah. You tried your best? Huh. It's like that Homer Simpson meme gif of him just crawling back into the bushes. That's what I feel like you would have done right there. Get me out of here. Yeah.

I'm allergic to red meat, but I'm going to snarf down this steak and get out of here. Get the heck out. My saving grace, though, was Simply Fit Paige, Paige Mayfield-Farr. Yep. Her dad is like some chairman for the Missouri Lottery. He was kind of my shoehorn into this whole thing. And so he was at my table, and we sat together all night and had so much fun. He was great. Yeah. Yeah. Love. Shout out, Lance. And you he was at my table and we sat together all night and had so much fun. Okay. He was great.

Yeah. Love shout out Lance. Um, and you had, you met him before. Yeah. I went over to their house back in college back in the day. And,

um, yeah, so it was fun. It was nice chatting with him. And okay, dude, I'll tell you who, uh,

Lance would be great for a podcast because he, he has a few different like hats and like things he does. But one of them is he runs the laundromat in a super small town. And he had so many stories just about the laundromat. They got this guy right now. They call him Laundry Boy. They don't know his name. So he comes in every single day.

He's been doing this for like seven months. Every single day he comes in and just washes just like a small handful of clothes. Okay. I can't figure out. Like some days it's like two t-shirts and a pair of jeans. He goes and he sits there and he washes clothes. He dries them and he leaves. It's a sometimes he comes in twice a day, sometimes three times a day.

And they don't know why they've tried talking to him. He doesn't talk back to them. And then as he's telling me something, I'm like, this is hilarious. This is wild. He's like, you know, he might be in there right now. So he pulls up the security footage. It was like Wisecam or whatever. Yeah, it was Wisecam.

He was in there right then. Really? It was awesome. He hasn't talked back to him. He said he's tried. And I was like, oh, of course I've tried talking to him. He won't talk back to me. And I was like, is it like a learning disability?

Or is it like Spanish? Like, is it deaf? He's like, I don't know. We can't get him to talk. Oh my gosh. But he's like, we're so curious about it. He's like, I'm obsessed with them. And my wife says, like, I'm too obsessed with them.

But now she's obsessed with them too. Like, you need to calm down. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And I was like, this is such a small town thing. I would get so into this too. Who is he? Yeah. Is he coming from out of town?

Yeah. Where is he from? Does he have a home? They said they peeked in his car one day, and they saw a sleeping bag back there. So it is kind of that situation. Okay. But he's always got quarters to spend.

Interesting. Yeah. How's he getting the clothes so dirty? Yeah. Three times a day? He needs to change those clothes out? Yeah. Interesting. I's he getting the clothes so dirty? Yeah. Three times a day. He needs to change those clothes out. Yeah. Interesting.

I was really enthralled by that. I was like, I like small town laundry guy. I am curious too. Well, let's see. Let's get some updates. I've been listening to the crime junkies recently.

So now I'm like, what if it's some crime thing? That's what I told Lance. I said, you're going to be in a documentary someday. He's washing so many clothes. He's like, these are like victims.

Right. He's putting a lot of vinegar. I don't think he's got, he're going to be in a documentary someday. He's washing so many clothes. He's like, these are like victims. Right. He's putting a lot of vinegar. I don't think he's got it. He doesn't have much. Yeah, whatever. He's not using detergent. Bleach and vinegar. Bleach.

But yeah, I told Lance, like, he's going to get convicted of something someday. And they're like, who knew him well? Like, he went to the laundry every day. Let's have Lance talk about him in the documentary. Lance is going to be an accomplice to something. You let him. You knew about this. the documentary it's gonna be an accomplice to something you let him you knew about this get away with this you were monitoring him you didn't tell us you know it's funny you speak of speaking of the crime thing lance said he did like go to the police station with his like license plates to be like hey he has i don't know what's going on with this guy i'm not trying to get into trouble but his tags are expired so like if you need a reason

thing he came over to our house back in college, and I remember thinking, what's this guy going to do for a living? And they said, he's going to be on TV. And I said, no, what's he going to do for money? Like, he's all part of the intro. And then one day, he goes and buys a limo. And then he goes into, like, the whole limo story. I'm like, I don't know if they know.

I don't know if they have the full context, Lance. I'll go up any time you want me to go up. So this guy was a chauffeur for a while? I don't get it. This guy buys a limo. Yeah, it was great. It was the best introduction I've ever had. He really went like start to finish.

Yeah. It was awesome. So a great night. And then just right from then, just packed up, left for Branson next morning. Let's talk about the group chat real quick. I thought that was hilarious on your Instagram. Oh, yeah.

So good. Yeah. Joseph A. Banks. Because I did talk to you the night before. You're like, it's business professional. And I was like, okay, but as the comedian, do you have to wear what they're wearing? And you said there were multiple people who said, this is it.

Three people in one email chain. Kind of at point was like all right i get it yeah because you know like if like imagine like a black tie event but like if bono is playing at a black tie event you don't expect him to be in a tux you do your thing yeah you're an artist you're kind of and so i was like does that mean you have to wear a suit and tie to this thing of like you don't think you don't see very many comedians in a suit and tie. No. Anyway, but you were like, no, they're pretty adamant about like it's business professional. Three people in a row replied all

and said business professional, business professional. Like, all right. And I'd rather them say that than like, hey, just come show ready like they did at the Chiefs thing. It's like, I don't know what that means. All right, I'll wear my team gold Chiefs shirt then.

Show ready. So yeah, I wore like a light blue blazer, white button up, navy pants. Sure. And like nice, just like brown dress shoes. Yeah.

You know, whatever. It's decent for me. Oh yeah. I look nice. You look great. Well, Lance took a photo of me, put it on Facebook, tagged me in it.

So then now all my Facebook friends could see this photo and DJ Mike L got a hold of it. And yeah, I was just, it was just, so I, I just, all these texts in the morning were just like,

man, I'll be on tours rough. My man's selling timeshares now. And yeah, everyone just had jokes. Everyone, Tom's getting in there. Everyone's making fun of me.

Yeah. It was great. Somebody said something about associate pastor. Yeah. Associate pastor vibes. And yeah, yeah. I finally had time to reply.

I was like, joke all you want, but they were very receptive to my sales pitch for Boca Raton last night. It's like, I associate pastor vibes. Yeah, I finally had time to reply. I was like, joke all you want, but they were very receptive to my sales pitch for Boca Raton last night. I had a lot of conversions last night. Moving to Boca. I'll have you know. That's amazing, dude.

So good. It was fun. I don't know about you. I feel like I've been just going ever since that night. Just like stand-up show, Coops are in town, Branson, watch a Chiefs game with my parents and Stratford get back late Sunday night and then Monday straight to correct opinions.

You were busy. Mood swings, six videos yesterday. It's fun. Yeah, no, I have, I have not been that crazy by any means.

Not, not that busy, but yeah, right when I get home, obviously it's not like, it's not like, okay, now I can relax for,

you know, it's like, okay, now I have, you know, I feel the responsibility and the obligation. Like I need to relieve my wife. Who's been at a home alone with my kids the whole time. So yeah, I took the kids out to Medi's on Monday, solo and little dadder days on Monday kind of thing. Yeah. All four. I suggested all four.

Catherine's like, and I was like suggesting all these things, like, hear me out. I take the kids to Maddie's by myself tonight. And I was like, I'll even put them to bed. You can be in the basement watching a movie if you want. And then I kept saying all these things and I just, in all caps, just said, is this all too crazy? And she responded, she said, yes, that's too crazy. I'll keep Henry and you take the other three.

So she's like, Rosie will be handful enough without Henry. So, but it was, yeah, it was fun. And yeah, getting some good time with them. So good time with the kids. Good time with the kids. Good time with the kids. But while I was gone this weekend, some good ranchers got delivered. Yes, it did. Pretty fun.

Thankfully, Catherine knew. I had no idea it was delivered. So Catherine scooped. Scooped. Scooped. Yes, she did. It up. And thankful to dig in. Oh, yeah. A lot of good chicken. A lot of better than organic chicken. Tell me more about that. Well, the only thing I know that

it is is the things that it doesn't have, which are added hormones, antibiotics. Or China. Vaccinations. Yeah. Pangolin coming from somewhere besides America. Yep. All those things.

What it does have is great taste, great values, and great. It's American meat delivered. I like it. I like it right now. Good ranchers doing a little presidential promo selection here. Yes, it is.

I do have pesto goat cheese. You pretty, pretty low on goat cheese. It, that's pretty fun. I'm talking a little pesto. A little pesto. I do have pesto. Goat cheese. You pretty low on goat cheese? It doesn't taste as good. You don't like goat cheese?

As I want it to. And sun-dried tomatoes. Not bad. Would you eat that? Eh, kind of. You wouldn't get excited about it? It depends on how the goat cheese feels. Dude, the goat cheese feels so good.

I want you to like it. Melted goat cheese might be quite a bit better. Yeah, but it doesn't melt super thickly. Anyway, so good. I want you to like it. Melted goat cheese might be quite a bit better. Yeah, but it doesn't melt super like thickly. Anyway, so good. It's a little bit softer. That makes you feel better, but it's pretty soft to begin with. But oh man. Anyway, just a good time. So yeah, I'm glad that you had a good time at the stand up thing. Yeah, it was great. So I saw one last thing in my notes that I forgot about Branson trip. Okay.

Just a real quick story. It was right before we were about to do the, my dad and Uncle John's story hour. Tymon comes in and was like, hey, you need anything? I was like, no, I think we're good. He's like, did your Uncle John show up? I go, look.

And Tymon looks and he's right behind him and he goes, he was right behind me, wasn't he? It was the perfect in real life example uh to get to use the like classic like disney phrase or you know cheesy teen coming of age so it might have been zacher graydon that said it first though oh the guy gives credit the guy gives credit but was funny. Tymon. He's right behind me. How funny have you, have you always been a funny guy? Because I think you are funny. Thank you. I, maybe?

Yeah. I don't know. I don't know if I ever had that many chances to like make a lot of people laugh besides my family until like I was probably 12. Yeah. I don't know. I didn't like do that much outside of. Sure.

I don't know. I didn't like do that much outside of. Sure. I don't know. I think, how long have you been like good friends with Zach, Graydon, Oliver? Since I was probably 13 or so. I think that helps a lot too.

Yeah, I can just say whatever. You are the average of the people you spend your time with. And so I think if you get around other funny people and you like to make each other laugh,

then. Yeah. I just. Makes shit funnier. I mean, just the, the, uh, Cody last week on the voice memo,

you know, live voice memo, have you finished your history yet? Let's start with that one. You know, timing, it was just the perfect amount of time of a pause between you just getting up and you just staying there.

You just, you just relish the moment for like a good three seconds. You just go, no. And that was, that was so funny and like like you have to understand comedy a little bit to understand the right because obviously if you take too long then it's like all right get going timing good one we're kind of annoyed but if you're just like no i have i haven't done that you know like that's not funny either you know like it was just it's just like this intangible like that was so perfect and you do some, like that's not funny either. You know, like it was just, it's just like this intangible,

like that was so perfect. And you do some stuff like that all the time. Like, yeah, maybe green leaf at theater plays a little role in it. I know there's not a ton of comedy typically, but yeah, can't be hurting.

I was, I was on the floor laughing at sentences of Billy. I don't know about you. I opened a scene on the floor. Yeah, you did. Zach did make me laugh a few times at that play. Yeah.

He was great. Was he a grandpa? Some older uncle guy, some like rich uncle, like old, he's supposed to be old, right? Yeah.

Yeah. He had gray hair. Ooh. Yeah. Yeah. He like had a funny voice, all that stuff. But yeah,

yeah. I just think, yeah, I want to give credit to time and for being funny. And I feel like, yeah, just getting funnier, at least since we more comfortable, at least on the podcast being funny. Yeah. I just think, yeah, I want to give credit to time and for being funny. And I feel like, yeah, just getting funnier, at least since we more comfortable, at least on the podcast, being funny. Yeah. Um, thanks. You're welcome, man. So, uh, one thing from Branson as well,

it's just, uh, an idea more than it is anything about Branson, but Mariah Garrett wanted us to talk about this. She said, it's gotten to the point where we can't even talk about it at work anymore. Oh yeah. I forgot about this, Which I want to, I want to go ahead and say, I don't know if I believe that. Yeah. How, how, how contingent can contentious can this be? But, um, basically the conversation is how do you make like step-for-step, how do you make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich? And I'm like, okay, let's talk about it. So she wanted us to talk about it. I would like to let's end, let's talk about it. So she wanted us to talk about it. I would like to let's end.

Let's end the episode. We'll talk about this. We'll do a little healing waters, add, give a little preview to the golf tournament and go from there, I guess. But, um,

real quick, we just got a DM from Kelsey Hancock. Okay. My brother-in-law was the live music at social birdie. Oh, I loved him. Okay. My brother-in-law was the live music at Social Birdie. Oh. I loved him. He had some great music. He did.

He played the Bluey theme song for a kid. Did he really? That was great. Yeah, that is awesome. It's impressive he just knew that. To be honest, I didn't notice him too much throughout the night, but I did notice that song that he sang. That's fun.

Yeah. I don't know what I said in Brant. I remember in the Brant episode just saying like, let me get ahead of this. People are going to think I hated this guy. I recorded that before he was at Social Birdies. So it's the principle of live music when I'm trying to talk. It's not your brother-in-law.

Yeah, that was the thing. It's not on the pickleball courts. I loved, that was the thing. Down on the pickleball courts, I loved it. It was the perfect volume on the pickleball courts. It's really far away. It's facing the opposite direction. It has some nice background music, but up there trying to talk to anyone was pretty rough. Very loud.

I feel like I, not intentionally, but luckily, got all my social talking time in pre-live music. Social birdie. Twitter. You mean Twitter? Yeah, I'm going to speak tomorrow,, I'm worried about my jokes here. No. Um, all right. From start to finish, start to finish. Let's talk about what kind of bread would kind of peanut butter. Yeah. Tell us, um, start to finish. First of all, I'm a two knife capife. Say it with me. Two-knife.

Two-knife. Kind of guy. So you will start by getting out two knives. That's the very beginning. I'm actually two-spreader. Say it with me. Two-spreader. I'm confused.

Okay, so there's certain knives that are like, I didn't know this until I got married. I was always just a knife guy. Now there's certain knives that are better for spreading things. Oh, get out of here. What is this? That's how I feel. Yeah. It's a rich person thing. I guess so. My wife went to Baylor. Um, yeah, dude, it was one of those, like, we don't need these. And now that we have them, I'm like, use them every time. Super spreader. Yeah. There, we have like four. So we have, we have a super spreader drawer. Yeah. I call it,

this one's like Lake of the Ozarks. This one's like you know yeah you get it so texas yeah i don't know um yeah some of them are a little bit longer than others so depending on how much peanut butter i have left depends on what spreader i'm using for that um we also use another thing you're gonna say get out of here for but we use the peanut butter that's's like, has to be refrigerated. Like the natural stuff. You know what that is? Oh, it like it. It comes with oil on the, like separate. Yeah.

Yeah. A little hack on that. Just turn it upside down when you're about to ready to use it. And then the oil will kind of mix together. It doesn't matter. I got so many issues with this already. Um, and so, yep. Uh, so then I, So then I'm also,

if it were up to me, I would choose strawberry jelly. It's my favorite kind of jelly. For peanut butter and jelly. Dude, for anything. I love strawberry jelly. Yeah, that's good. Also, don't sleep on raspberry jelly. Rachel's made some toast.

What's the difference between jelly and jam? It doesn't matter. It's just education okay because I feel like when I hear I hear grape jelly and I have strawberry jam I think jams is jam the one that has like the chunks in it could be I don't know jam is preserved I would say I love strawberry jam slash jelly yeah it's a good call yes yeah okay yeah I don't know. They seem very similar. A little Google search. Like jam is less transparent than jelly. Jam has a chunkier semi-firm consistency, while jelly is smoother and more uniform. That's one of those things where it's just like,

at the end of the day, I'm not going to care to learn that because no one else cares. Here we go. This might be helpful. Jam must contain at least 55% sugar to be classified as jam by the FDA. Whoa.

What about jelly, though? It doesn't say. And then there's marmalade. And there's preserves. Yep. I don't know. Altogether, I'll choose any of them, and I won't know a difference. Yep. I'll be excited about any of them. I do not mind any chunks in there.

Hattie is pretty anti-chunks. She wants you to get the strawberries out of there. Like from the, Oh yeah. I don't think I'd want that either. I want a smooth jelly. Yeah. You want smooth. Uh,

I am, I think everyone is this. Hopefully I'm not a psychopath. I do. I do peanut butter on one slice, jelly on the other slice. I also, this is going to,

I think Brad, I think there's gonna be tons of people. I I'm with you, but I've like, I've just heard this heavily debated. Some people do like insane things. I don't know. I can't remember what people do, but they don't, there's people that don't believe in that. Really? Which I don't get. And maybe I need to take a few steps back here. First of all, I'm spreading on the peanut, the peanut butter on the slice. And then any excess peanut butter is going straight to the mouth. Yeah. Love it.

Just that's half the joy. Yeah. It's a spreader, you know, so it's fine. And then I'm putting that in the sink, um, washing it off before,

uh, going to the next step. Also the, the issue is what you're saying though, timing about like spreading it on the same side is I often don't get enough jelly. I, I,

I dip in there, spread, dip in there if I need to. Yeah. You don't want to get the stuff on the knife. Correct. Mix with the jelly. Yeah.

Correct. Um, and then from there, and I like, this is genuine. It's not just like, because it's healthy. I liked like the multi-grain bread,

like a little bit of wheat with like the stuff on the outside of it, like little seeds or whatever, that oats or whatever. And I just put it together. No cuts, no folds, no fuss. Just straight to the mouth from there. And I go for a corner first to eat it. And that's how I eat it. And then what's cleanup?

Cleanup? I try to be a fan of cleaning up before i eat and so i clean them up not always throw them in the dishwasher for whatever reason maybe but i'm at least like i'm a fan of like don't let it get dry on the spreader get it off there first before it gets too crusty and then it then you're having to clean up for twice as long. In your house, do you refer to them as spreaders or as knives? I think we would refer to a knife, like in the main drawer with like fork, spoon, knife,

that's a knife. But then I think Catherine would say, can you give me a spreader real quick? Wow. I think so. Because you're not really cutting too much with this. You're truly just spreading out. And maybe you're cutting a, you know,

it's a spoon. You have a spoon. It's yeah. It's got like, it's concave in the middle. I know it's one of those things. And maybe it's just, yeah. Having a wife. Cause I would have never bought one of those for myself,

but then she had one or she's like, no, this is better. I'm like, okay, I guess we're rich. I guess we're rich. I guess we're doing all right. We have a spread. That's right. So that's how I do it. What is your peanut butter and jelly routine? I don't make many, but I would take two pieces of just typical white bread.

I think we get like semi-healthy stuff. Okay. I don't know. Just like very normal. It's two slices of bread. I will say, I think I'd prefer to be a two knife guy but in my family i think it's my parents be like oh don't use don't waste like you just use one knife okay but it's like i don't think it's ideal because you get a little residue into like

whichever you use second no which isn't great i don't like that um i think i'd start with bonus if i toast the bread first. Whoa. Whoa, you freak. It's better that way. You think? Oh, yeah. I'd say so. I think I like my bread plenty soft. Why go white bread if you're not going to get soft?

I went through a little stage in high school. Yeah, toasted peanut butter sandwiches. Yeah. Pretty nice. Fun and crisp. Either way is good. And then I think I just take the knife. I think I go peanut butter

first what kind of peanut butter uh doesn't matter much i prefer creamy though do you yeah just because it's easier to spread there's not as much like yep and i don't love the crunch of the of the like nuts and stuff so i love the crunch um spread it's a pretty thin peanut butter layer i'm not a huge peanut butter guy okay um so pretty thin and then like get that all as much off the knife as possible since i'm going in jelly next you're not washing off the knife you're just you're just no no i don't think i am i'm not eating food ever at your house if this is how you do things i think go off i think the knife i'm like getting it pretty much all peanut butter free.

And then I'm, yeah, I'm going jelly next and I'm getting like a pretty hefty amount of jelly. Cause I like the jelly a lot more than the peanut butter. What kind of jelly? Uh, we always have grape. We like never have strawberry stuff, which is I think better,

but, uh, and then put them together and eat. I started, I also start with corner first. Who wouldn't? I think. Yeah, that's true.

Maybe a little kid. A little kid wouldn't. Because they wouldn't care about getting on their cheeks. Bo goes for the mustache-looking bread. He's just going in the middle the whole time to where he could make a smiley face on his head. Okay, I disagree with you on the peanut butter ratio. I like a hefty amount of peanut butter.

No. Yeah. I like a hefty amount of peanut butter. No, I, yeah, I like a hefty amount of both. Let's be honest. Surprise. Fill it up. Yeah.

I don't want it, but, but like fill it up, but I do not want a messy sandwich. I don't want it to be like having any sort of worry that's going to fall out. You're not going to fully pig out, but you're going to, yeah,

that's fun. It's been so long as I've made a gel. I feel like I've been on a massive peanut butter and honey kick for so long. It's what we always have on the bus, and that's what I like. My mom, and this is how I do it for my kids now, my mom would put the peanut butter and the honey in a bowl

and mix it up first and then put it in there. Nice. I don't think I've ever tried this. Because then you've got a nice creamy little spread. No fuss. Okay, so I'm going to grab

one, open the drawer, one just standard knife. Then I'm going to grab, open the pantry, grab the Peter Pan creamy peanut butter. Peter Pan is the goat. Grew up on Peter Pan.

It's as good as it gets. Yes. You're going to set the peanut butter down. You're going to set the knife on it like sideways. It's resting on, it's balancing on top. Then you go, you're going to get a paper plate and then you go get the bread. Okay. And my dad has like wadded up.

We don't use twisty ties. You just kind of spin it and tuck it. So you unspin it. Yep. Open it up. This is probably Wonder Bread. I'm going to get four slices of white Wonder Bread. We're making two sandwiches.

Really? Yeah, I always have two at a time. Do you really? Yeah. Wow, pigging out. Pig. And then we're going to lay them all out two by two on the plate. Arc style.

Open up the peanut butter, and we take our knife, and you start whipping it up. Whoa. You whip it. Get it real creamy. Really? Sorry, I missed. What are you whipping?

The peanut butter. Yeah. What? He's pigging. Makes that sound. Okay. Try whipping next time. Okay.

What does that do? It makes it easier to spread, softens it up a little bit. Does it? Liquefies it just slightly. Yeah. I feel like it gets it primed. Like, hey, heads up. Sure.

Sandwich coming. Here we go. I hope you boys are ready. Say goodbye. It's time to graduate to the big leagues, boys. Goodbye to the jar. Yep. And then I would say it takes like one big slab,

maybe a second big slab. As we're starting to spread, we realize I need just like a little baby slab to finish this off. So a decent amount of? Probably a good amount of peanut butter, and I'm taking my time. Rachel watched me make a peanut butter sandwich.

She says, I would never take that much time spreading my peanut butter. I can imagine you taking it. Sorry, I want it even. Sorry, it's like a Moen-Kaufman stadium. I want the lines good. This is going to be nice. A slope of zero. Is this two big

slabs per bread or two big slabs total plus a small slab? That's like per. I don't know what a big slab is. That's pretty subjective. We're going separate. Two and a half slabs here. Great. Got all my peanut butter. Swivel the plate around. Now we're putting separate. We're going, hey, we're going to two and a half slabs here. Great. Got all my peanut butter.

Swivel the plate around. All right. Now we're putting our peanut butter in here. I've got my peanut butter. Then depending on what stage of life I'm in, like am I living by myself? Am I living with my parents? Am I living with Rachel? It's going to affect whether or not I lick that knife, if I wash off that knife.

Typically, let's say I'm living with someone else. I would probably try to scrape it against the peanut butter jar and try to get as much back in the jar as i can really that's that's i would do the same thing i forgot about the jar edge that's also a good you get that method back in there yeah and then you close the peanut butter and then you're going to take a paper towel and wipe off the knife okay and then And then we dive into the just standard grape jelly. The outside of it's sticky. I don't know whose fault that is. Someone I'm living with, it's sticky.

Yeah. Tired of it, but you're, you know, that's another reason why the paper towels there. Maybe you got a spreader. It wouldn't get so sticky because it wouldn't fall off as often. Because the spreader's a spoon. Perhaps. Quizas. it's so sticky because it wouldn't fall off as often because the spreaders a spoon perhaps key sauce and then you've got the the jellies it's the jelly's almost always almost out you know you're always just digging the bottom of it so you're like it's kind of upside down and you're scraping you're scraping another great use of a spreader and you're getting

it down there and it's just clumpy and as you're starting to spread it you think why did i not just do honey this is this is so hard to get it flat and even um and i want to say i do it on the the unused piece of bread because that's that makes the most sense but there's something in my head right now telling me that maybe back in the day i used to put it on the peanut butter side really i don't know if that's true but it feels like maybe i did which feels like insane i mean i think i did i don't know if that's true, but it feels like maybe I did, which feels like insane. And I think I did. I don't hate the idea of like really getting to know each other, intermingling, like mixing together.

Like I like that aspect of like mixing it the same, kind of like the idea of like peanut butter and honey in a bowl before you put it on there. But like, it just feels wrong because I am often going, having to scrape a little bit more out of the jelly to go back in. Yeah. You ever get the jelly that's like,

um, squeezable or like, um, spreadable. It's like a thin line. We have had that. Yeah, sure.

It's not bad. That always, for whatever reason, certain things were always like weird to me, like kind of almost grossed me out. And that was one of them. Didn't like it. Like purple ketchup.

Grossed the heck out of me. Oh, I could throw down some gog. I think it's because I knew some people growing up that were like it like goger gross the heck out of me oh i could throw down some gog i think it's because i knew some people growing up that were like they kind of grossed me out and they're like they love goger they're yeah they're just shoving this yogurt in their mouth like that and it was just weird so it's kind of like a association we always freeze our gogurt we do that now oh and it's nice i will say kids just like a frozen like ice cream tree but yogurt see that's

not weird like a popsicle is not weird yeah or whatever you call those freezies icies huh i will say i i'm with you on the just like the squeezable thing kind of weirds me out for some reason maybe probably because i feel like i've seen that in mayonnaise and i and mayonnaise is disgusting just in general mayonnaise it's disgusting oh gross okay yeah i don't know yeah it's just like because at the end of the day when you when the when you're running out of jelly and you squeeze it makes a nasty noise and so then yeah you see it kind of like sadly come out that was pretty good because there's like the out you had it you had it yeah the second time was the best thanks i'm not gonna try again yeah and then you're you're done i think from there i've got my two sandwiches

made i'm going to it depends on where a lot of times i feel like i'm making it like i'm already like i started the show so i can start watching it while i'm making it so i've probably now set the knife back down on the peanut butter and it's resting there as I watch the show. I haven't cleaned up or anything. It's all like in the recliner on the couch with me. And as long as there's no dogs or kids around, it's going to be fine. As long as I'm in charge of the environment, no mess, no problem. No fuss. But yeah, dog, a kid or Rachel, it could, it could spell disaster. I could get jealous. Rachel's a little bit of both, you know? Uh-huh. So, and then when I's a little bit of both, you know?

So, and then when I'm done eating, then you throw everything away. And I would say I'm real good about really cleaning off the knife like with a water and a brush, but that may not end up in the dishwasher. But I for sure cleaned it off and like set it to the side. Because then it's so clean.

Easy to throw that bad boy in the dish. You're throwing in there eventually. Yeah, I think some of it's so clean. Easy to easy to throw that bad boy in the dish. You're throwing in there eventually. Yeah. I think some of it's just like the the laziness that comes with the ignorance of not knowing if the dishwasher is clean or dirty. Yeah. I could check and try to make a reasonable guess if the dishes are clean or dirty or I could just set it down right now.

You're fine. Yeah. Someone else knows. Because that's a that's a half second thing. Whenever it's time to blow the dishwasher. Oh, a knife. No problem. That's not. I don't mind that at to blow the dishwasher. Oh, a knife. No problem. That's not.

I don't mind that at all. Stink. Yeah, right there. Yep. Just imagine how much easier that would be if your knife was twice as wide. Because that's what a spreader is, baby. A lot of cleaning. I will rinse off a peanut butter knife in the least efficient way.

I will just turn the water to all the way hot and then just like let it. Oh, really? Do its thing. Just like, I don't know why. There's no reason. It takes so long. Just kind of watch it like slowly eat through it. Then you see knife up silver. Alright. And I kind of slowly move it on.

Slowly move the other end. Turn it over. Dude, I'll kind of do that with like, let's say I'm like peeing somewhere, urinal, you know, wherever. And there's like something, some sort of residue or something, hair, you know, it's like, let's see if I can get this off kind of thing.

You know what I'm saying? Like, it's kind of like, I got a little fire hose here. Let's put out the fire. Whip your cannon out. Yeah, exactly. Absolutely. Kind of fun.

It reminds me of that. I've never done it on a peanut butter knife, but if it was the last time I was using the knife, maybe I would. Oh, you're saying that. Yeah. That's then again, they say urine sterile. So still don't want to wash. Why does it stink? Don't worry. I don't know. Don't worry about it. This is a clean podcast, which is what urine is. So. Yep.

Which is like how water is. America's most sterile. Good. I don't think we uh i think we can still talk about this another time it did not yeah i don't think it got didn't get too animated yeah i think nothing too crazy there's some freaks out there probably make them real weird though i can't wait to hear what people do what would be weird like yeah mixing together like i cut my bread before i put peanut butter and jelly on it. That'd be weird. Every bite I take, I give my dog a bite. Toasting it is interesting. Yeah, I toast it with jelly on it, then put peanut butter on later.

How would you even toast it with jelly on it? It would be a mess. It would be psychotic. I have a whole toaster just for my jelly toast. It's gross. Yeah, I have to clean it out constantly. I don't know. Oh, well, that wonderful how-to segment is brought to you by Healing Waters International. Healing Waters International.
