Pretty often on this podcast, I feel like I have some sort of gripe with fast food some way or another every week, but no one is immune.
This week, unfortunately, it's Chick-fil-A.
No!
Our favorites, yes.
Isaac and I went to a new one, the one by the Oak Park Mall, kind of.
Not in the mall, but one back there.
Sure, sure.
Went to that one one morning to get some breakfast and started it off by saying, you know, hey, it's a great day at Chick-fil-A.
You know, great customer service.
Yeah, yeah.
Great day in the car.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
There's actually going to be two orders from our car today.
They start off by saying,
okay, are you guys going to be paying separately
or is that all together?
Oh, okay.
Well.
Well, two orders.
I wouldn't have said the first thing.
Okay, okay, okay.
So kind of a weird start.
Yeah.
But like, no, we are going to be paying separately.
That's the two orders thing.
Jake.
That's what it means.
That's what a typical restaurant thing means when you have two orders.
Yeah.
First name on the order is Jake.
And then this is Isaac.
We get to the window and the guy's like, all right.
And then order for Jake.
Here you go.
And then order for.
Oh, wow.
He starts to chuckle.
He goes, the guy spelled your name I-S-I-C-K.
I, Jake, and I, not healthy.
I feel bad.
That's a SoundCloud name.
What up?
It's yo.
It's a little I-sick.
I couldn't believe that they did that.
No.
Episode 61.
Here we go. It's going to be a a great week baby! Hit me with them drums. I think this tight beat means that it's going down with some random thoughts on white meat.
Two Midwest best friends eating fast food on repeat.
Two orders.
Yeah.
Jake and Isaac.
So come on, let's have some fun.
Go ahead, get on your feet.
Bringing the electric guitar here.

That reminds me of soccer.
Okay.
Yeah, I think that's when it really got popular.
It was just rallying crowds in Europe, just screaming it.
The guy in the audience has a drum, and they're all O-O-ing together.
I have lots of qualms with soccer.
Don't love soccer.
But I have so much respect for soccer fans,
especially European soccer fans,
because in the NBA, in American sports,
a lot of times they have to have all these synthesized sound coming in,
like, you know, like all this stuff in like, you know,
Thunder games you watch and stuff.
But like at soccer games, it's just like people are going crazy the entire time there's never any noise like that in the pa system that's
a good point you know i mean i went to one nba game and i was so surprised at how there's just
like music playing constantly right in the arena yeah college basketball does not do that and so
maybe i'm just like a college basketball purist i'm like oh it's so much better because there's
so much more passion in the game. Probably not true, but whatever.
But yeah, soccer, they're just they're into it.
Yeah.
And it's not even like soccer is that crazy all the time.
Like sometimes it's just like, oh, they kicked it 30 yards in the air.
And some guy kind of we cleared it.
Dribbled it.
Yeah, we cleared it.
Cross it.
Oh, he crossed it.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't think they do that.
Yeah, they crossed it.
They probably have a cheer for crossing. yeah anything with a drum i remember one time we uh one of my favorite parties i ever planned at k west back in the day
uh we just we need someone do something similar on facebook so it wasn't like an original idea
but basically like created soccer but with walls uh do I explain this?
Created like human foosball. That's a better way of describing it.
Human foosball where there's like string attached
horizontally
across this field essentially
and then there's pool noodles
that the string is going through. So you can only go left and right
while hanging onto the pool noodle.
So you are a human foosball player.
And so we like
in the chuck wagon where we would eat all of our meals, turn all the yeah and so we like in the truck wagon like where we would eat
all of our meals turn all the tables sideways so there's like the walls yeah and then only two
teams are playing but the rest of the entire camp it just absolutely crammed in there like i wanted
the soccer experience right and they're split ups like you guys are all rooting for canada you guys
are all rooting for angola okay you know whatever and then they would all make they each got their
own drum the classic rivalry canada versus angola tail is all this time yeah and just the energy that was like in that
tiny little kitchen it was like one of the coolest parties i've like ever created that's really cool
and yeah could care less couldn't care less about soccer but it was sweet yeah made a memory gosh we
should bring that back we should we got a pretty big basement down here uh that's not being used
as a podcast studio maybe we could turn into a human foosball game sometime.
Any reason this day and age to get a bunch of people together breathing on each other
in like a tight space.
Yes, absolutely.
Singing.
Oh, yeah.
And screaming, spitting.
Oh, yeah.
Isaac saying we're going to say was a quick trip yesterday getting gas and a woman held
the door open for him.
And I thought he was going to say what I said on the podcast last week.
But he said one hold the door for him and said it would and said, it would be nice if you wore a mask.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
Okay.
Like, looked her straight in the eyes and said that.
What did Isaac say?
He said, I just kept walking.
He's like, hey, I'm a collegiate athlete, so I've already been infected.
Go Tar Heels.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I was like, I would probably just keep walking, too.
I don't know what I would say.
Yeah. Kind of. Good point. Kind of. heels yeah yeah uh i was like i probably just keep walking too i don't know what i would say like yeah kind of good point kind of but that's rude for you to look at me and say it like that probably that's tough oh boy um but he's fine he's okay he's doing all right uh people are
his name right now and we're good to go i love it isaac isaac um isaac and i have the uh the once he locked down in the chicken and pickle tournament this week.
Right.
And we've been updating you guys on our season.
I've been scouting out the competition, doing some like film reviews.
What's the preparation like for that?
Yeah.
I kind of told Trey that I needed a week off.
Good.
Absolutely.
Just Isaac.
I've been doing morning sessions.
Mornings are for film.
Okay.
Just going over just like' weaknesses and strategies.
And then afternoons are drilling.
One-on-one, just getting better at our own specific skills.
And then evenings are ice bath.
Oh, good.
Yeah.
Yes.
You have a really small little bathtub, though.
So you take turns or do you just get in there together?
It makes more sense to just do it together.
Just conserve.
Yeah.
Conserve energy.
And we do it uh
charlie and choco factory style head to foot grandpa joe yeah grandpa joe and uh he's grandma
jolene that is like the most weird part about that whole movie yeah why are they first of all
how do they stay in bed all the time surely four of them in one bed they got a bedpan in there a
few bedpans like the community bedpan what's on? What are the people in the middle doing?
Yes, I know.
Like, whoa.
Because I've tried and successfully peed off of a bed, but I was on the edge.
Not from the middle.
Did you go?
That's tough.
Tell me more about this.
You go side side.
So, yeah, you do.
You've done like a side plank for your like obliques or whatever.
So now just think of doing that, but then not working your muscles at all and just laying
down, just relaxing your muscles as much as possible except for like a lower yeah abdomen one okay
forcing that one out okay yeah how good you know i was actually thinking this week because we had
some ladies over to the house for a little game night humblebrag and i had to pee okay um and so
i was like well obviously they know what i'm doing here, but I, it still
feels more respectful to not make a big loud scene in the bathroom.
Okay.
So I'm trying to pee on like the side of the bowl.
Sure.
But as you've kind of already hinted towards, we have some sort of children's bathroom,
uh, in our house.
Like the toilet's too small.
The bath is small.
The light switch is very low.
There's one light switch. It's like abnormally low. And's one light switch it's like abnormally low and one of them it's like abnormally high right yeah we don't know what's
like is that the fan went up top up top or fan one's up top uh but there's no fan connected it's
just like a motor that runs it's just so loud um anyway where am i going with this oh how accurate
of a pier do you think you are oh man give me a scale like what's the scale um i think
i'm very accurate but i want to know like the recoil of an ak-47 do you feel like you experience
that while peeing like i don't get much kickback no i okay see i'm pretty good i feel like like
recoil stabilization is like good yeah oh yeah yeah yeahS. I feel like I don't know where the first initial fire is going to go, but after that, I feel
good about like aiming it.
Oh, yeah.
That's fair.
That's fair.
That first one is the tough one.
Right?
Okay.
You're kind of shooting blind.
Okay.
That's what I thought, too.
I was like, maybe other people are like, no, I know exactly where it's going to go right
off the bat.
No, absolutely not.
Yeah.
I mean, you have an idea of the general vicinity, obviously, but no.
Yeah.
Well, I did good. I don't think they knew I went pee at all. I think they just thought I idea of the general vicinity, obviously, but no. Yeah. Well, I did good.
I don't think they knew I went pee at all.
I think they just thought I went in the bathroom just to literally powder my nose.
That's probably what they thought.
See, that's the thing with me.
I'm almost the opposite where I'm like, I gotta go to the bathroom.
How loud can I make this?
Well, because I don't want them to think I'm pooping.
Oh, it's like I'm going to pee and I'm going to show up.
I'm going to make sure they know.
They know that Brad is in here just going number one.
You know?
Because then I won't wash my hands.
They won't think twice about it.
Like, is there a fire hose running in your bathroom?
They must have fixed their faucet.
Because something's going down in there.
I don't know.
Yeah.
Someone doesn't have their urination wigwam on.
Holy cow.
That is firing into that toilet oh
yeah anyway um anyway we got there from i think isaac and i's pickleball but yeah so this turn
this league we've been in we locked down the one seed by the time this comes out the tournament's
already over so hopefully we won i can't wait for you to win uh another follow-up from i told you
about the old people i played with last week bruce bob pam darla i got to see Bruce again okay I was on Bruce's team yeah Nightfall
has come upon us okay which uh is when Bruce decides to let me know I only have one eye
oh I'm sorry Bruce Bruce you're playing with a fakie Bruce only has one eye is it glass or
like does it look like the Pirates of the Caribbean guy it does not look like the Pirates of the Caribbean guy? It does not look like the Pirates of the Caribbean guy that much. Okay.
He had a peg leg, though, too, though.
Oh, my gosh.
So that aspect of it.
Parlay.
What does he say?
Parlay.
Pirate's coat.
I don't know.
You're kidding.
But that is true, that Bruce said, oh, I have trouble seeing when it gets night.
I only have one eye.
Like, in the middle of a point.
Like, Bruce, you can't just drop this on me. They got one eye
What I was playing hard against you last week. I didn't know you were Cyclops
So did you like did you see it once you saw it like I you don't get a lot of eye contact
Rebels pickleball, I would totally have like been like hey good point
Or hey look at me. Let's drop it in here. Yeah
Yeah
Bruce little something i do before
every game a little concussion protocol follow my finger all right now just follow it into my
eyes let me look at you let me look at you really quick wow i i hear that when you only have one
eye though you have like no depth perception yeah i've heard that too because i've pretended
this is like a random thing that i've done like as a prank i guess i'm not much of a prankster
maybe it's my answer whenever i people ask about pranks as I will close one eye when I'm driving and like
lean my seat back and it looks like this. And so like if I drive past somebody like on this side,
it looks like I'm asleep, but the depth perception is so bad that it's not the safest thing to do.
No matter what kind of prank yourself sometimes, But people, everyone's probably like, whoa.
Anyway, one-eyed Bruce.
I'm trying to think if I,
I don't know if I look at the people driving next to me
that often, do you?
I do actually.
I judge people a lot when I'm driving.
Like I'm like-
If they're passing you or if you're passing them?
When I'm passing them.
I'm like, what are you doing?
Like you're not driving very well.
I want to know what kind of person you are.
I want to judge a book by a cover real quick.
Pretty much, yeah.
So that's just me.
Oh, I know something I saw this week while driving.
If you're watching on YouTube, I took a video of it,
so we'll put a video up right now.
But there was a minivan with some decals on it
that the font looked as if it would have said
Ashley's Flower Delivery or something. Like a nice, beautiful, girly font. decals on it that the font it looked as if it would have said like ashley's flower delivery
or something like a nice beautiful like girly font um it looks like a small business but this
uh van said sweet home inspection and i was thinking like do you have some termites
we'll do a sweet little home inspection for you.
Come on out.
Yeah.
Hey.
How's your structural integrity?
Your foundation's a little rough, so I added some sugar over here in the corner.
Give you the sweetest little home inspection.
We snooted the boop over there in the back door.
Yeah.
Leveled that out for you.
Oh, so we should look into it.

Too soft.
Cotton, cotton pillow plumbing.

No.
I don't want cotton pillow plumbing.
You want them to be as, as honest as possible in their respect to your home.
Like they, you don't want to be like, eh, I mean, the water's leaking a little bit down
into the basement, so it might flood
every winter, but don't worry about it.
It's still, it's a charming house.

you watching aren't subscribed though so guys come on think about it think about it and just just hit
that smash that subscribe button ring those bells ringy dingy dingy. Gosh, I'm glad I don't have to say that anymore.
I mean, even though I just did.
But we said it's sarcastic.
I don't have to say it three times a week anymore.
Oh, man.
I forgot about that time of your life.
No, you didn't.
I've been drinking water still.
Yeah.
Got some right here.
And?
You guys.
That's ASMR.
There's no way Mike picked that up.
Oh, yeah.
I heard it. and it's good i did
get soda one time this week though well but tell them why yeah oh yeah i talked about this with you
off the podcast i wasn't even necessarily craving it i was just like i'm gonna do it just to prove
to myself that i can hop back off the horse not to be confused with warhorse plumbing but i got um oh and another
time i was tempted bad the the devil is is alive and working yeah i went to topper's pizza ordered
a little something something the other day underrated pizza by the way good pizza great
pizza and he said oh well we're running this deal right now so you actually get a free soda with
your pizza and i was like oh no no no no do you have pink lemonade? Yeah, can I get anything else?
And so I got a bottled water.
So I survived the temptation, but it was tough.
So they gave you a free bottled water, though?
Yeah, so it was still free.
Okay.
Dasani.
Okay.
They're a Coke brand, apparently.
But anyway, I got Dr. Pepper from Chick-fil-A the other day just to see if I could drink it and then go back to water.
And I came out stronger than ever.
Okay. I wake up craving it now, like actually. back to water. And I came out stronger than ever. Okay.
I wake up craving it now.
Like actually.
That's awesome.
So didn't take that long.
Isaac's like, I'm going to take off soda now.
So starting to movement.
Maybe I should.
I don't know.
Yeah, I can't.
I can't do it all the time.
It's too good.
Maybe like, maybe like on the weekdays, like Monday through Friday.
That's silly though.
It's like halfway commit.
Why?
It's not silly. It's like halfway commit. Why? It's not silly.
It's still like limiting that.
Cause that way it wouldn't be as much of like an addiction as it much as it
would be like,
you're saying like,
Oh,
I can have it a few times,
but it's not like,
uh,
I'm addicted to this.
I can't get back off the wagon.
I want to be next to the,
I want to be the oxen.
I want to,
I want to have,
you know,
be pulling the wagon,
but everyone's small. I'll be like, Hey, I'm a little tired. Mom, pod, you mind if I want to be the oxen. I want to, I want to have, you know, be pulling the wagon, but everyone's small.
I'll be like, Hey, I'm a little tired.
Mom, pod, you mind if I just hop in the wagon real fast and just get a little, a little
shade.
You don't hear about oxen much these days.
No.
They still alive and well.
I think they're endangered.
They're like the bald eagle of the Prairie.
When I went wakeboarding the other night, gunner's dad was like you know we were
talking about like making a wakeboarding video again like i did back in the day for him and he's
like you should get that drone out there's a bald eagle that lives over there and i was like whoa
that's cool that you know where a bald eagle lives and then as he's telling me this it like it was
like a movie it like swoops down from the sky and it's like right above us he's like well there it
is right now sweet i was like you're very in tune with this bald eagle he's like he's like holding
out his arm there it is right now yeah it's just like on his arm like mulan remember that character yeah
he's very in tune with that bird bald eagles are so so cool i think because they're a little
endangered and because they represent america but like there was one near our camp and every time we
went on a boat trip we got to see it and it was so cool they're cool i i think we got lucky that
whoever decided
that the bald eagle would be like a patriotic bird like i'm glad they didn't choose what if it was
worm or something yeah it'd be tough to like like no worms are cool no no guys no they they really
help fertilize the earth like you see this these flowers growing it's because of the earthworm
and always having a yeah it's like no they're actually like you say the word actually you're
having to like admit something to yourself like no no, they're actually like, you say the word actually, you're having to like admit something to yourself. Like, no, no, no.
They're like actually kind of cool.
Yeah.
Well, wasn't it the turkey that was originally like in the running for the bird?
Have you heard that?
Oh, well, I think it was a bald turkey and they just went extinct.
They're like, yeah, bald turkey.
Bald turkey.
We got to get something else bald.
Yeah.
We need to make sure that everyone knows, like we don't have to wear wigs anymore so
we can wear, we can be bald eagles.
Yeah.
Were our founding fathers bald and were those wigs or did they like have normal hair and no those were 100% wigs i
don't know if they had hair underneath but they were definitely wigs they were but i think like
everyone wore them even if you weren't bald that's kind of crazy i think it was actually cool to be
bald and have a wig really it was kind of like look down upon like, hey, you have real hair. What are you doing? Huh? Yeah. Is that true?
I don't think so.
Who knows, though?
That is a crazy, weird trend.
Like you see a lot of fashion trends come back.
We haven't seen the 1770s come back yet.
We'll see, though.
Maybe people just start.
Well, actually, I say that, but I know a lot of girls out there, especially in another
community, the Africanamerican community that
have lots of wigs that they wear oh sure you're last chance you know um the most recent one
they like the uh teacher that they like kind of feature on there she's a black woman and she
has different hair every single episode it's crazy yeah yeah like weaves have been around for
those are popular those have been popular for a long time. Weaves, that's the word. But 1770s, like, juror founding father wigs have not yet made a comeback.
No.
Juror.
Juror.
Here we go again.
Juror.
Juror.
Say it angry.
Yeah.
Anyway.
Gosh, that word sucks.
I got juror duty.
What part of town is it in?
Well that's a thing
It's not even near the city
It's way out there
I have to go out
It's suburban
Rural
Is where it is
It's out in the rural
Yeah
That's good
Kansas
You've been practicing in your cold tubs
A lot
Yeah
Yeah
My ice bath sessions
I called 911 this week
No
Yes Why? I was driving okay home i don't remember
what from in a transformer blue right on top of me if you don't know a transformer is like
the electric box at the end of like the eye michael bay yeah megan fox toe thumbs um do you
remember when that was a big deal toe thumbs you remember? Do you remember that? Like Megan Oh Megan Fox is so hot
Dude she's got toe thumbs though
Gross
What just like stubby hands?
There's like a shot
We'll get it up on YouTube right now
There's a shot of her
I think like grabbing a motorcycle
In the movie
Where it looks like her thumb
It just looks like a toe
It's just wide and fat
And that was like a thing like
Oh Megan Fox dude
I would never let her touch me
With those thumbs Her toe thumbs though Really? Dude. Like, oh, Megan Fox, dude. I would never let her touch me with her toe thumbs, though.
I just don't know.
Megan Fox.
It's like if Megan Fox is right here, you'd have you draw the line.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Get up.
Get away from me, Megan.
Yeah.
Yeah.
OK, Transformer.
Sorry, I interrupted.
I bet she would dominate at Thumb Wars, though.
Oh, my gosh.
Why girth?
Can you imagine good strength? Rock climber. Thumbs to, though. Oh, my gosh. Why girth? Can you imagine?
Good strength.
Rock climber.
Thumbs, too, probably.
Steady hand.
Steady hand in rock climbing gym.
Number one.
What were we talking about?
Transformer blue.
Oh, a transformer. It's like this electricity box at the end of like a series of light poles, you know,
that holds a lot of electricity.
That's all I really know what to say about it.
That's that's enough for me.
That's enough for sweet home inspections.
I'll tell you that right now yeah yeah yeah oh your transformer is about
to blow but i i love that it's like kind of strived but like look how rustic this pole is
next to it like that's nice yeah oh speaking of rustic i'm never gonna get to the 911 story
isn't it funny the whole like concept of uh uh what am i trying to say exposed brick yeah i can't
believe that we value that oh
it's hilarious like the whole the whole rustic aesthetic is awesome for me personally but it's
also hilarious like yeah exposed brick um like aged furniture like aged looking furniture like
you want it to look like it's been used it's awesome for me great because anytime anytime i
like like it was like an inside joke with me and my friend back in the day. Anytime we'd like be building something and we like actually hit it against the table
or something.
We'd be like, yeah, it's, you know, it's supposed to be, uh, you know, rustic.
So we'd just be like, whatever.
Yeah.
Exposed brick.
Like does the apartment have brick?
Uh, yeah, it's got some on the outside.
Okay.
I don't care about that.
We don't want that.
Uh, but on the inside there are parts where brick is exposed.
Oh my gosh. Really? You're that. But on the inside, there are parts where brick is exposed. Oh, my gosh.
Really?
You're kidding.
This is the original brick?
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's there.
The last tenant was a crackhead who took a ball-peen hammer to the walls, and so it kind
of exposed the brick behind the sheetrock.
Beautiful.
Oh, my gosh.
How did we get so lucky?
Let's take away the rest of that sheetrock.
What's he doing now?
Can we get him back here?
I love his work.
I love what he did.
Is that, you can, if you can't say, I understand, but was that Banksy?
I don't know.
Yeah.
Exposed brick.
Yeah.
Just the aesthetic of rustic in general is hilarious, but awesome.
Like, I think it's cool in a way, but it's also funny.
Like, it's like, it's like, I would rather my stuff not look new.
I want it to be lived in.
It's like, okay.
Yeah.
I just made a table for somebody, and they were like, we want it tastefully distressed.
And I was like, great.
So I just sanded down the edges.
So you dropped it from a staircase.
I just dropped it on my body real quick at 11 o'clock at night.
That's like Chipotle's whole brand, as far as not whole brand but like their design interior
design brain is just metal just gray metal yeah yeah it's very very industrial in there they have
like pictures and paint it no i guess it is it's photos the photos framed in their stores of other
types of metal like that's it that's just like you like metal you're gonna see a lot of it inside
watch this guys yeah yeah um okay so a transformer blew right above me when I was driving.
And I've seen them blow before.
I remember it happened back at Stratford back in the day because we thought someone was
lighting up fireworks.
Oh, wow.
My dad was like, no, it's like a transformer blow.
Like that?
So crazy loud.
I genuinely thought I was being shot.
I mean, for like a split second.
You know, just a very loud pop sound.
Yeah.
And then just a flash of light.
Like it happened right above me.
You know, I'm like, there's no, no one else on this road.
I can by far the closest person.
Oh my gosh.
And so the transformer blows and then falls off the light pole.
And so now it's like starting a fire in these people's backyard.
And so I just like turn around real quick and pull over and I figure out like which
cross streets I'm at and just call 911, which I think I'd called 911 before, but I really
couldn't remember. I was like, how does does this go like i'm kind of nervous so i
call 9-1-1 it's ringing it's ringing we get to five or six rings and i'm like this is not good
second guessing i'm not even kidding like okay it's 9-1-1 right seriously i have the right number
because i'm like i'm looking at the fire just like waiting and you know having a speaker for
like waiting for him to answer like is it getting worse do I need to go knock on these people's
door like there's a fire in your backyard and then that's when I look back I'm like okay did
I dial 911 okay is it 911 yeah no it okay no it is yeah yeah it is right yeah I think I'm pretty
sure so then I'm like well I mean a sprint's not the most reliable you think they'd be able to find
a way in an emergency. Yeah, yeah.
So then I just hang up.
I'm like, I'll just try again really quickly. Okay.
So I dial 911 again.
And then it takes like three or four rings.
And then they eventually pick up.
And they're just like, Leawood, safety, 911, what's your emergency?
Well, I had a bigger emergency about 30 seconds ago.
He already stabbed me.
Yeah.
You should have just been like, too late.
It's best just to let him finish.
Oh my gosh.
That's crazy.
I mean, what if it was a much bigger emergency?
Yeah, just 911, what's your emergency?
Make it snappy.
The bachelor's on.
Yeah, really?
Golly.
Yeah.
911, what's your emergency?
My dog is feeling sick right right now so make it quick
i'm worried about him yeah 9-1-1 uh got a bun in the oven for just a second i'm preheating it
though so you're good about three more minutes hey 9-1-1 what's your emergency i don't have dvr
anymore so i can't uh i can't pause it what's up that's a funny thought to like think that the 9-1-1
dispatchers are all working from home right now too. So they're like cooking and they're like, they're like, they're like going to the 9-1-1.
Um, just a second.
It's like, Oh, come on.
Yeah.
Mute me.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You gotta do that.
Goodness.
That's okay.
So they, you said, Hey, they're, they're burning up.
And then you just left.
Yeah.
I just said, Hey, I'm on the corner of this and this transformer just blew.
It's starting a small fire in the backyard and they said okay thank you for letting
us know huh wow that's that's crazy so i did it you're so good i did what any other person would
do yeah so i'm a hero wow i'm trying to think if i've i've called 911 a few times but nothing
really yeah there was one time i saw i witnessed like these two i think they were homeless two homeless men like fighting and one of the guys like really
started fighting and hit him hard and then they like he like fled the scene and i was like i need
to call and let them know about this other guy on the sidewalk yeah it was really sad and hard to
watch so anyway i've seen i've seen two people get in a fight in a street before too
they weren't homeless but i didn't like it no no because the thing about people fighting in a street
is they're not trained boxers so not a lot of defense happening a lot of just whaling everyone's
getting smacked right it's just like it's just like yeah just just swing as much as you can
and hope you make contact before they do. Yeah, that seemed like the strategy.
Yeah, it was really rough.
And I was with Catherine.
So it was like, like on one hand, I was like, I want to go help this.
I don't even know if I was supposed to.
Like, who was I helping?
Like, it wasn't like one guy was fighting and one guy was just helpless there.
They were both fighting.
But I was like, I want to go do something about this.
But at the same time, my wife's right here.
Who knows what these guys, they were, they these guys... They were on something, I think.
Because it was on a really busy street downtown.
And the guy ran across it while there was moving traffic both ways.
Didn't even have any mind that there were cars coming both ways.
So it was like, okay, these guys are just not in the right mind.
No, no, no.
I think I know what happened.
One guy said, hey, if you run across the street right now, I'll give you $500.
He runs across the street. Then the guy's like, I don't think you do. I'll give you $500 runs across the street then the guy's like I don't think you do
I don't have $500 so they start fighting yeah yeah yeah that's probably exactly
what it was and then he's like I can't Venmo you I'm homeless I don't have my
phone on me it's Sprint's not working right now yeah I tried to call I can't
get through oh man Sprint's like done it's T-Mobile now yes like officially I
think like my phone still says Sprint I'm wondering. It's T-Mobile now. Yes. Like officially, I think. My phone still says Sprint.
I'm wondering when that's going to switch over.
Like I think that all the signage and everything is going out.
Yeah, the people who needed to approve it approved it.
It's happening.
So Kansas City has nothing to be proud of anymore.
No, just the Wizards.
Go Wizards.
Just the Wizards.
Go soccer.
Yeah.
Spoiling KC.
Early 2000s soccer.
They used to be called the Wiz.
Do you remember that no they
were called the whiz and then they're like hey whoops we should probably change our name from
the whiz to the wizards it was like we didn't see this in in advance like in the early 90s let's go
whiz hey hey uh i know there are girls here but i'm gonna go i'm gonna i'm gonna go root for the
whiz like in the back but i'm gonna i'm, I'm going to shoot the outside of the bowl. So it's fine. There's a town around where
I'm from West Plains. They're called the scissors. Oh, I don't know what that is, but it's kind of
cool. This is, I've heard of that. I think it's like a genuine, I think it's like a agriculture
something. Actually, now that we're saying this, I think we've talked about this on the podcast
before. Really? Cause I think you said that last time. Maybe no way of knowing, no way of knowing
Caden Hudson will tell us. He'll know.

I feel like I need to get an update.
Last weekend, I said that I was interested in finding a girlfriend at a coffee shop.
Yes, this is what everyone's waiting for.
I had, I only went to a coffee shop once this week.
So limited window. Okay window or limited just opportunities.
Right.
There was one woman who fit the description of the, you know, just mental police lineup
that I'm looking for.
Okay.
I don't know.
That's not a good way of saying it, but.
Okay.
Can you turn to the right?
Yeah.
One girl that I was attracted to.
I go to the restroom.
I get a little sneak peek at her computer screen.
She's on a Zoom call.
Okay.
So first of all, good for you for having the boldness to do a Zoom call in public.
I don't think I would ever do that.
Wow.
And two, like there's just no, this is already hard for me.
There is no way I'm interrupting her Zoom call to ask her out.
Hello.
Can you put on mute real quick?
Yeah.
Are you muted?
You're muted.
Okay.
Wait, you're not muted.
Tell me when.
Okay.
Bullseye.
Or I mean.
I mean.
Well, I like your skin.
I mean.
It's a tan.
I can't talk when you're tan.
I can't talk when you're tan. I can't talk with your tan.
I'm a winter guy.
Yeah, but I did like the idea of just like scooting over and just kind of waving.
Who do we got in here?
That's my CEO.
Oh, big deal.
Oh, CEO.
Brushing elbows with the best.
OK, now, as long as we're saying letters,
how about D-A-T-E?
Oh, what's that one stand for?
I'm the VP of that.
What if that was like your angle?
I'm going to have public peer pressure with her.
Because if you're normally one-on-one in a coffee shop,
she could easily deny you and she's not going to feel bad
because she doesn't know anybody else.
But on the Zoom call, well well we need to make sure this girl
is you know open to new things yeah a little like maybe it was an interview and this she was like
maybe this is part of it did you see her talk at all she didn't talk very often okay so it was more
like i think a meeting she had to sit through but i was like still weird if she has to like
like close her laptop like what i'm on a zoom call yeah i'm on zoom yeah
yeah i know yeah yeah no i went to the bathroom uh faking it earlier to get a view of your laptop
so i know yeah i've just been here three hours i'm just waiting this is a super long call
just if you have an eta you must have zoom premium because i thought these things could
last 45 minutes holy cow oh man Oh, man. That's great.
We don't pay for this premium with church staff meetings.
And we had to restart it three different times one time.
It was like, come on.
After the second time, it's like, surely we don't have much more to talk about.
Back on, I just remembered something.
There was a guy in college I was friends with.
And we had to tell him, like, dude, you've got to stop asking you gotta stop asking girls out like around other people like around other girls or anything in general
yeah so i think maybe consciously maybe subconsciously he was doing it being like
it'll be harder for her to say no like multiple times the girl would say yes and then later tell
him no like they they would say yes to him in person yeah because there's all these girls around
all these other friends around like oh yeah that sounds that sounds great. And like call him that night.
Like,
Hey,
I don't want to go on a date with you.
Yeah.
And we were just like,
I won't say his name.
We're like,
dude,
like you gotta stop asking girls out in groups.
Right.
Well,
and I know I just kind of jokingly said like,
that'd be a great way for her to say yes.
Cause you know,
you were joking,
but like,
that is not like,
that's not the motivation that you want for a girl to say yes to you.
You want a genuine answer.
You don't want her to be like, I guess I because i have to i guess it's like see i know
how to get them like yeah okay pickup artist right you're just you're just yeah pressuring
girls into dating you that that's that's what you want in a wife no thanks so anyway i i somewhat
tried i'll try harder next week i guess i did I did go to a restaurant with Chili's and sat inside, had my first waitress in three
months.
Chicken crispers?
No, no, no.
Chicken Cajun pasta.
Oh, yeah.
Your other.
And it was awesome.
And yeah, I think because I, you know, first time in public, having a waitress for the
first time, the girl at the coffee shop was on a Zoom call.
I just kissed that waitress right on the lips. I at the coffee shop was on a zoom call i just i i just
kissed that waitress right on the lips i was so happy to be there here we go yeah thank you for
serving me and allow me to serve you right right i laid one on her yeah why not it was cool yeah
it was fine she was wearing a mask so i feel like it was like not even you know that big of a deal
yeah were you by yourself or were you with friends i was with one girl i was you know okay she was like oh that's awesome she's like hey nice she's like
good well she's wearing a mask yeah so i guess it's not that kind of dinner because you just
kissed the waitress but no it was uh the friend oh that was on the bonus episode oh patreon oh i
told you i have a friend who's staying on my couch yeah kawaii okay reunion yes it was not a date i would not take a crawl on a first date to
chile's yeah unless it was laura daigle gosh i wonder what she's up to i don't know i hope
she's tan she is yeah you say i am tan i don't know uh i've just been telling a lot of things
that i've done this week.
You have anything for me?
That's the thing.
Like, I feel like I've been so busy this past week, but I can't remember what I did.
I've just been working a lot.
Hattie's been gone in Texas still.
I don't know if I mentioned that or not.
So we recorded a bonus episode of the Patreon for the Patreon with Catherine, which is fun.
That'll be up in like a week for all of our patrons.
No matter what tier you subscribe to, you get the bonus episode with Catherine Ellis.
Yes.
It's funny.
And she afterwards, she was like, okay, I respect you guys a little more.
Let's go.
Like, it's like, she's like, it was harder than I thought it would be.
Oh, good.
Hey, thank you.
It is not that easy to do all the time.
Yeah, thanks.
I watched a movie this week called Velocipastor.
Okay.
You heard of it?
No, but I'm going to guess what it is.
Okay. You heard of it? No, but I'm going to guess what it is. Okay.
Velocipastor is a pastor who is obsessed with the dinosaur age and making sure that the
gospel gets back to the paleontologists of the world.
Kind of.
Okay.
It is a pastor who turns into a velociraptor.
So is this a true story or?
It didn't say at the beginning, but it's kind of implied.
Okay.
It's like based on true events.
Okay.
Okay.
Okay.
It's on Amazon Prime.
It's free.
It's only an hour and 10 minutes.
Of course.
And it is.
They ran out of money.
They're like.
Yeah.
Probably worth watching.
Velociraptor.
Velociraptor.
It had a budget of $35,000.
How did.
And truly, i'm impressed at
how good of a movie it is for thirty five thousand like that's like nothing yeah yeah that is nothing
thirty five thousand dollars yeah it doesn't usually pay for extras probably in a movie uh
yeah it was crazy and they they somehow made the guy look like a dinosaur
if you uh if you loosen your uh definition of look like and you loosen your definition of
dinosaur then yeah he looked like a dinosaur oh so it was vince carter basically yeah this guy
in a raptor's uniform yeah well how do you even find this first of all uh so it's kind of been
like getting a little popular on the internet like you were talking about like one of the worst
good movies okay it's called velocipastor okay and so i was like i gotta check this out was it made
by the same people as like facing the giants and you know courageous and all that so going into it
i thought it was going to be one of those movies that like doesn't know that it's bad like uh
sharknado okay or mama's foot what is that one it's a movie in college one time we're like let's
try to find the worst rated movie on netflix and mama's foot uh is one of it's a movie in college one time we're like let's try to find the worst
rated movie on netflix and mama's foot uh is one of those movies that doesn't know it's bad
oh really this it's kind of cool because i think they were trying to be like how funny and good of
a movie can we make with 35 000 so like one of the opening scenes this uh catholic priest walks
outside and he's like hi mom and dad you know they're like waving back to him and then
he's just like oh no oh god no and it cuts back to mom and dad and there's just text on the screen
where they were and it just says vfx car on fire mom and dad Mom and Dad!
No.
No. so it's like very tongue-in-cheek okay like we don't have much money for this but you can imagine what happens here yeah okay so that's like the opening scene so it's like oh okay so they like
they're having fun with this yeah so that kind of makes it more enjoyable um but it's still
i mean like watch it
if you don't have a lot of other stuff going on would you say it's like comparable to threat level
midnight-esque kind of thing yeah kind of like that yeah like if you're in a quirky little mood
if you're right around like good people who are like in the middle laugh you will laugh very hard
at philosophy pastor did you watch it by yourself or did you get some some people together uh there
were a couple of us together yeah yeah, yeah. We were very far apart.
I bet you guys were laughing.
We were.
Yeah, yeah.
It was funny.
It did provide entertainment.
I'm so curious how he became a raptor and a pastor.
Yeah, it's, oh man, it's funny.
At one point he goes to China, apparently.
And we know that because he's just in the woods looks like he's
just anywhere in missouri potentially in the woods but on the screen it just says china and then the
opening dialogue from that scene he just like is walking around the woods he just like takes a big
breath of air he's like china there it is yeah i smell it So, um, here's a question. Do you think if you had $35,000,
you could make a better movie? I don't know. Yeah. I mean, I truly don't know. Yeah. Um,
cause you know what it's like to record that TV show you guys did where, you know, how much time
that can take and how much money that can take and all that stuff. Yeah. Like, like even a short
video or, you know, TV show like that takes a lot of time and money. Yeah. So, cause that's,
I mean,
yeah,
it is kind of,
we're in the middle of those discussions right now with the,
the middle school Maddox team of like,
what do we want the,
yeah,
the second iteration to look like.
Yeah.
Um,
cause like we've gotten an offer from someone for like a certain amount of
money.
And we're trying to figure out like,
if we want to take that or if we can get more for someone else or how much
money do we need? And also even like the idea of of like how nice do we even want it to be like if this
is going to live on facebook it almost feels weird if it's too well shot sure so trying to like well
maybe we take less money but then we have our own creative control and we kind of just shoot it on
my camera but i have it professionally lit with actors right you know i kind of a middle ground
yeah because that's i mean that's people are not watching trey kennedy's videos right now because of like oh this is just crazy amazing like
lighting and whatever uh-huh yeah yeah you know that was kind of that's part of what makes it
cool so yeah so you don't have to tell me the exact number but it was it more or less than what
joe rogan it's like uh so if you don't know joe rogan um signed an exclusivity deal that his podcast which
is the most popular podcast in the world uh exclusive with for now as of now at the time
of recording this it's june 29th uh 2020 um so his podcast will not be on youtube anymore it will
not be on apple anymore it will only be on spotify starting in like september or something
and it's rumored to be like like it's definitely a nine-figure deal but it's like 100 200 maybe
even 300 million dollar deal for a podcaster crazy and it's like him and like two other people
that's nuts crazy money it's like he owns it all by himself i think yeah there's no like
it's not like joe rogan reports to ab media or something. It's just him. Yeah.
Who would have thought?
Fear Factor guy.
Yeah.
Like I heard that Joe Rogan had a podcast.
I was like, that guy?
The guy that tells everyone to eat snakes, you know, whatever.
Fear Factor was such a silly show. Like it was so cool for like three of the four stunts or whatever they did.
And then all of a sudden they're like, yeah, you have to eat this cricket.
And it's like, oh, that's not fair. Cricket would have been getting off easy you're right eat the scorpion or something
or like cow tongue cow brain oh yeah like is that scary i don't know if i'm scared to eat that i
don't think i'm like no not the cow tongue oh the transformer blue i'd be i'd be more scared if i
was in a field of blowing transformers than that but i'm like i don't want to do that that's not fear i just
don't want to right yeah anyway so anyway it was around the same deal that joe rogan got okay what
train i rocked for you because you don't know exactly what joe got no so we think it was around
there and that was just for ig tv so you know hold out for more hey yeah exclusivity good for you
that's exciting yeah so so velocipast got, got us there. Yeah. The,
the owner or writer, I guess, of Velocipaster said he had that idea because his phone,
uh, like auto-corrected VelociRaptor to Velocipaster somehow. So he's like, that's a
great idea. I want to make Velocipaster. Dude, my phone recently has been doing that. Like not that,
but like everything's reptile themed no it's just
like correct auto correcting things that i'm like surely that's not what you like i'll be like tge
like the g is right next to the h i'm like surely you know that i'm trying to say the yeah and they
either don't correct it for me which is almost more infuriating or they correct it something else
like toe i'm not trying to say toe try to say toe anyway I've just been happening more and more to me and I wonder like if if I'm just screwing up
so often with my text it's just giving up that there will know or they're like learning like
maybe he is trying to say to go you know tge means something yeah I don't know the ones I get
frustrated at are like when I spell absolutely but the s it's just an s instead of an a at the
beginning and so it's absolutely it's like i'm one letter one letter off of a 10 letter word
surely they're next to each other in the alphabet and it's saying no what does it say like no uh
no corrections found or whatever that thing is where you click on it yeah you get the thing
right it's just like i don't know i mean you to know. Maybe you're trying to say submarine, I guess. I don't know. Like, absolutely.
Sbarro?
I don't know.
SB, you know.
Surely you can't have a different letter at the beginning.
You always get the first letter right.
You'll get that one right.
Yeah.
And the one that I think maybe I'm doing something wrong for this one.
Certain words, it autocorrects them to be all caps.
Didn't in my phone.
Autocorrects to didn't.
Didn't you know and i don't know how to over correct that right it thinks every time i say didn't it wants it to
be all caps i'm like how i want to get rid of this i'm done i want it out i guess i must have
done that one time that's so frustrating when when did i say if i ever correct a word i want
to be like that forever that's how i am with if I try to do three haws, ha ha ha.
And so there's a ha because sometimes something's pretty funny.
Extra funny.
Yeah.
I'll be like, ha ha ha.
And it'll be like, ha ha ha.
I'll be like so loud.
I'm like, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Ah, my ears.
Calm down.
My ears.
Too loud.
So yeah, I'm the same.
I also think that maybe my dexterity of my fingers is just off.
Like I'm like, I am like so often, um, on Instagram
specifically, I got on a story or something, a story or something, somebody will get tagged,
like their, their name will get tagged in the story and I'll try to click. Oh no, that's not
you. That's Instagram. That's okay. I get so like, I'm like, I am doing something wrong. I like,
I've like, I click with my thumb and it won't work. So I'll like get a different finger in there
to try. And I'm like, what is happening here?
I don't understand what's going on.
Like doing like the claw machine game with your pinky.
Right.
Seriously.
Like, like, no, I've like had like a scientific approach to it a few times where I'm like,
okay, I see exactly where I'm going to press this and it will go to the next slide.
And I'm like, no, I'm not trying to.
So I'll go back and then I'll like move it up like minuscule amount and try to, I'm like,
I am right on it.
I don't know what to do.
Yeah.
Instagram needs to figure that out.
I don't know.
I don't know how, how that works, but Zuckerberg, come on.
Zuck.
Anyway.
Uh, did you watch social media family part two?
Speaking of Zuck?
No, I don't even know what part, what are you, what's social media?
Sorry.

watch the ads before and during thank you thank you that helps thanks appreciate it yeah uh yeah
we had a zuck joke in there that's why I thought maybe you're like no yeah it's it's okay no that's
like one of my favorite ideas for a video you guys have done though, though. Because I think it's so clever and so relatable.
Thanks.
Yeah, I think the second one's pretty good, too.
Took forever to write, but we're proud of it.
Yeah.
Anything else?
Want to get us voice memos?
Yeah, I want to get the voice memos.
I was going to voice memos.
I don't need to talk about anything else.
Okay, first voice memo from Amelia.
Hey, Jake and Brad.
This is Amelia from Florence, Alabama.
I just started to listen to y'all's podcast. Heard about it from Trey Kennedy's Correct Opinions, and I think it is so funny,
so I really appreciate it. Jake, last night I had a dream that you and I started to date.
Holy cow. So congrats. Our 12-hour anniversary is coming up, so get ready for that. But my
question for y'all is, have y'all ever done something or always done something that
is considered to be geriatric for example right now i'm in the middle of baking bread it's proofing
as we speak and i also love to cross stitch but i'm only 24 but i've always loved to do those
things it's just really fun so hope to hear back from y'all appreciate it bye-bye at first i thought
she said but i also love to crossfit and i'm like that's geriatric now? I know I'm a dad, but like that seems like a young person's thing still.
Wow.
Imagine all these old people doing geriatrics.
Please.
Or CrossFits.
I mean.
Don't make fun of my girlfriend.
Sorry.
12 hour anniversary though.
She seems kind of demanding.
Yeah, it's a little suffocating, but that's how I like it.
That's how I, oh yeah.
That's why I kiss people with masks.
Because it's so suffocating.
Suffocating.
Yeah, yeah.
Nice.
Amelia. I loved her accent. Amelia loved the accent. Oh, I don't's why I kiss people with masks. Because it's so suffocating. Suffocating. Yeah, yeah. Nice. Amelia.
I loved her accent.
Amelia, love the accent.
Oh, I don't even think I noticed it.
Oh, that's because your dad has such a strong one.
Oh, I know.
We've just been dating for a while now.
Yeah, yeah.
We're just used to it.
Geriatric.
I mean, we played pickleball, which I don't know.
Yes, that was the first thing I thought of, too.
I don't know how well known it is, but it's a pretty old sport.
So that's by far the most geriatric thing that I do.
A lifetime sport is what they call those. Oh. tennis golf pickleball yeah i can't imagine though playing
it like we play it now when we're older what ad bruce doesn't play like i am flying around baby
yeah i mean that's by far the most geriatric thing i do other than that like i
um i love applesauce okay just like soft foods yeah i like ice cream a lot soft foods
are nice oh i like werther's originals those are nice those are very nice that's pretty geriatric
yeah oh i can't wait to be old because i think some of the things that i like i wish i had more
abilities to be old like like sometimes i have a lot of neighbors that are older on my street and
they just seem like they just live the easiest, simplest lives.
They're just, they're just chilling at their house.
And I'm like, that looks nice.
Walking their dog.
Vern, what are you doing today?
Oh, just need to mow the lawn.
Yes.
That's it.
That's your day.
That's it Vern.
And, and yeah, sometimes not even that because the lawn was mowed yesterday.
Yeah.
So it'd be something else.
I'm going to watch the news.
I'm going to put my socks on. Oh day awesome both socks today yep you got it yeah you got it yeah okay next up i'm
excited about this one because it is from girl named janna yeah and we've talked about i mean
how many episodes in a row now and And it says the breakup tale of 2006.
Oh, boy.
Hello, Brad and Jake.
This is Jana from good old Lenexa, Kansas.
I really can't believe how much my name has popped up on your podcast.
So I thought I would just clear the air and leave a review on how Brad really broke up with me on that dreaded day back in 2006.
A review.
Okay, it went something like this.
Oh, hot dog, Janinator.
You know the thing.
Oh, man, comma. This is hard comma to say comma. See, I'm into horoscopes, parentheses, and God. view okay i went something like this yeah hot dog janinator you know you know the thing oh man
comma this is hard comma to say comma see i'm into horoscopes parentheses and god in the enneagram
and pomp and circumstance this is difficult you're just too cool for me and you're from chicago which
could be considered the middle east and i just don't know if that's going to work besides you
can't say rule right and it sounds like rule listen you should just match with my buddy jake
in 10 years on tinder he says rule okay so bye- bye-bye. But really, Brad's a great guy.
I've even bought a coffee table from him in his early woodworking days.
You can buy one at elliscustomcreations.com.
Jake, I'm sure we would have had a fun on a date if Tinder match had gone well.
Thanks for all the laughs, guys.
Really, I've told Brad this in the past, but I put on your podcast when both of my toddlers are being real cranky,
and it makes me a much better mom.
Peace, prayers, and pickleball.
Bye-bye.
Oh, the three Ps.
That was a lot. That's what i told her when i was breaking up you i tried to get a word in but i couldn't
all caps i texted her i'm just kidding oh janna god love you you know know what? The hardest thing about breaking up with Jana was that her dad was like a VP at Aldi.
That hurt.
I had to start paying for my high quality produce.
Didn't need to bring a quarter around with you anymore.
That's nice.
Oh man, Jana.
That does stink.
Whatever.
Yeah.
The breakup tale.
I was like, oh man, is she really she really gonna tell people what i i don't remember
much about how i broke up with her anything i think i was pretty nice about it probably i mean
sounds like from what she said it sounded a lot like how you talk now which is crazy it's not like
you had a lot of inside jokes back then you've just been intricately you know planning on using
14 years later oh man yeah wow um thanks for ordering the table janna from alice custom
creations yeah that actually is
i would say multiple times this week i've heard people say um that our podcast is like soothing
which you know i'll take any compliment but it's funny like really so like she said yeah but she
plays with her toddlers um someone was over the house yesterday and she said yeah but listening
to ghost runners i it helps me fall asleep so i was like okay and then another person i talked to is that a compliment and it
was actually a girl who we have another voice memo from later i was like oh i had no idea you're
listening to the podcast uh or something like that and she was like oh yeah i was listening to it
while it was thunderstorming in my car and i put you guys on and maybe not scared of the rain and
the thunderstorm kind of gets your mind off i'm like you guys know it's a comedy podcast right oh it's so soothing oh it's so relaxing that is nice i
don't i don't i don't react at all i mean it's emotionless i don't i don't laugh one bit it
calms me down it just lets my mind wander i'm not thinking about anything when i listen to you guys
it's perfect you just gotta have to rebrand as like the calm app just like download us if you
need to go to sleep or just calm down i tried to download that the calm app just like download us if you need to go to
sleep or just calm down i tried to download that the other day you had to pay for it you know that
oh really i downloaded it you don't have to pay for the download but in-app purchases of course
oh i wanted yeah freemium it's what they call that that's exactly what they freemium freemium
calm is it they said i uh just kind of funny irony maybe yeah a few weeks ago I was having trouble sleeping it's
like all right I see ads all the time for the calm app I'm gonna try it and the irony is that
I fell asleep while it was downloading no joke that's awesome so I never even got to like I woke
up and I was like well I don't need this anymore I deleted it so I never even knew you had to pay
that's actually a great tactic is like make it take forever to download it was the weirdest thing
all I had to do was think about getting calm and i there's a free free brand deal for the calm app you're welcome
guys or maybe you like like you you make an app and then you have it open but it's just like a
revolving wheel the whole time making it look like it's loading okay what should i think about
and it's like just a second your your calmness will come and it's really just like giving you
and getting you a trance the whole time hypnosisnosis. What do you think about hypnosis? I want to not
believe in it, but I think it might be kind of real. I don't know. I know people like, I don't
think, I don't know. My, my reason for saying that is because I know people that have like
quit smoking immediately from hypnosis. I don't necessarily believe in like the fall asleep and
I'm going to wake you up and you're going to scream like a chicken. Like, okay. I don't necessarily believe in like the fall asleep and I'm gonna wake you up and you're gonna scream like a chicken like okay
I don't that surely that's not real to me
But at the same time those same people are making people quit smoking, so I don't know yeah
I don't have any strong thoughts on it. I've really never thought about it much
I think you have to be a certain type of person to be hypnotized. Mm-hmm. I think you have to be very easily
just
Yeah Moved yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah like very easily convinced
to do things so for the people I don't know I'd be willing to hear more about it but like someone
who like quit smoking because they're hypnotized like I'm sure they've wanted to for a long time
and like the guy the specific person like one of the guys I'm thinking of not like a guy like that
though like very stoic like not stoic but like not emotional at all
so i don't know that that was the thing that made me a believer in it though yeah i don't even know
why i brought it up because i i really don't know much about it or how many thoughts about it i'm
just curious what do you think stop smoking okay next one is from kaylin hey brad and yaki this is
kyle and kaylin the greatest sibling duo of all time, coming to you from Pennsylvania with the greatest voice memo of all time.
We are doing this in tandem for emotional support because of the huge crowd listening in.
That's right.
We have the greatest question of all time for you today.
It may or may not be blasphemous, but therefore, comma, we live under grace, comma, not law.
In your opinion, what books of the Bible are best suited to use as Christian curse words?
Also would like to say, Prince of Egypt is the greatest movie of all time.
Yes.
Thanks.
Love the pod.
Bye-bye.
I need to watch that movie.
Dude, Prince of Egypt.
Oh, my gosh.
They're right.
They're right.
It's so good.
That soundtrack.
Yeah.
Through heaven's eyes. Lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, right. It's so good. That soundtrack. Yeah. Through heaven's eyes.
Lai, lai, lai, lai, lai, lai, lai.
Oh, my gosh.
I want you to get into it.
I know.
I'm sorry.
It's so good.
I've been saying that two years for you for Parks and Rec.
So let's switch roles.
Mine's two hours.
Yours is many more.
But, oh, man.
That song.
Do you think they memorized that?
Definitely. Probably twin telepathy oh yeah
i don't know if they were twins but maybe but i think they just tapped in yeah tapped into twin
telepathy they hypnotized themselves to get it probably yeah um great question also yeah not
sure it's blasphemous to do but um great question you know i, I don't really know if we should do this, but I also think if we
didn't do it, it would be just, I would be a son of an Obadiah if I didn't take advantage
of this.
I like, I like, yeah.
Old Testament is the answer.
I would kind of like Pop and Circus Sands, but Deuteronomy, like Deuteronomy, man.
Song of Solomon.
You need to get your act together. What else is there? Hold on. Habakkeronomy, man. Song of Solomon, you need to get your act together.
What else is there?
Hold on.
Habakkuk U, man.
Habakkuk U.
Oh, yeah.
You think I'm the Leviticus?
You're the Leviticus.
I called you like, it rang five times before you answered.
Gosh.
God, Malachi. God, Malachi.
God, Malachi.
What are you doing, Malachi?
Fun question, though.
I can say I've never been asked that before.
So thank you.
All right.
Big surprise.
I got one more.
Nehemiah.
I don't know.
Who's the shortest guy in the Bible? Uh, knee high.
Oh, sure.
Comedy.
That's good.
That's gosh, we're so soothing.
Okay.
Here we go.
Hey, Jake and Brad, Stacy here from Pennsylvania.
Been listening to the podcast for a while and I absolutely love it.
It never fails to give me a laugh.
So I've been telling my brother
to listen to your podcast for a while now because we have a very similar sense of humor and I know
he would love it, but I don't think he's listened to it yet. So I texted him and told him to listen
to next week's podcast. So Danny, if you're listening to this right now, you're probably
driving to or from work. So drive safe. Love you.
And shoot me a text on what you think of the podcast. Now to Jake and Brad, question for you.
If you guys have siblings, which I think based on what I've heard you do, what is the craziest shenanigans that you have gotten into with your siblings in your childhood? Love the podcast. Keep
it up. I have two older sisters. Yes. I'm the baby of my family. Jake and I are pretty much the opposite.
I have two older sisters that are eight and 10 years older than me. Jake has a younger sister
that is three years younger than him. I was going to say two. Um, I didn't do too many shenanigans
because my sisters were more like my second and third moms, but I also, I mean, like that makes
it sound like they were bad or negative,
but it was awesome.
I loved them a lot.
The only thing I can think of is that one of my sisters,
this is more of a life hack,
but we went to McDonald's and she would say,
hey, can we get two ice cream cones?
But can we just make them like really tall?
And every time they just gave us
the biggest ice cream cones you could imagine.
Great life hack
wonderful so that's that's the shenanigans we got into oh let me tell you yeah i don't have a good
answer either i actually made a like a sketch video about this several years ago i was just
like what people think my family is like versus what my family is like because i think people
see my sister and i such like outgoing fun people we would get comments all the time in high school
we went to the same college together too i'm just like oh I bet it is so crazy in your house
and truth is it is so normal yeah we grew up watching The Office a lot together um eating
oh at dinner together uh we were both good kids who are very well behaved I don't know how many
shenanigans we got into. Did you ever like not eat all your vegetables sometimes sometimes we're like hey tonight we're only going like three quarters
broccoli yeah um i really mom had no idea yeah i mean we might have gotten instrumented against i
know caitlin listens to the podcast maybe she'll take us on but i don't know we were so boring i
think i don't think we got any shenanigans. You were good kids. Yeah. Not boring.
Not boring.
Just good.
I feel like there was something, some sort of like, not quite con we used to pull, but there was some sort of like trick we used to pull on people, whether we were in high
school or college.
It felt like it would be in the category of shenanigan, but I can't think of it.
That's okay.
Yeah.
Except for, well, we did kill a trucker at a truck stop one time together.
Oh my gosh.
So I don't know if that counts.
Oh, I don't know if that's shenanigans as much as just straight up murder.
I don't really know the definition.
But then again, when it's siblings, it's just like, well, it's just siblings being siblings, being zany.
Those are the triplet boys.
Wacky.
Well, she's my sister.
So good question.
Sorry we didn't have better answers.
But thanks for listening.
And shout out to your brother, Stacy.
Yeah.
Next one.
Hey, Jake and Brad.
This is Christian.
I'm from Colorado, but I'm currently in Springfield, Missouri.
Let's go on my way to K-West.
Let's go, Brad.
K-West is the better camp.
So my question for you guys is, have you ever gotten a safety ticket at camp?
And if so, what is your funniest safety ticket story uh maybe before
you tell them you could explain to the viewers what a safety ticket is because i think they're
a little bit of a joke but you know we all get it that's how you get it seriously answers are
thank you for the great podcast and hopefully i'll hear this when i'm done working at camp
bye bye what a great. What a great segue.
They're a joke.
Yeah, that is exactly how I got mine.
Thank you, Christian.
Christian's probably listening to this right now.
It's August 12th.
He just got off camp.
He's listening to this.
He's on a camp high, baby.
He's listening to Cajeman's Call.
Stacey or Rico.
And this.
And this.
Impressive.
Two sets of stereo systems.
But yeah, hope you had a good summer, Christian.
And thanks for the question.
K-West is wonderful.
I love K-West.
Yeah.
If you don't know, a safety ticket is basically a type of like, you know, demerit you get
within Canuck.
It's like you were doing something unsafe, but like your first safety ticket, it's just
got a good slap on the wrist.
Nothing really happens. I mean, yeah. how many does it really take to get in trouble
have several yeah like i feel like until you get a lot of them yeah or like all right this is your
fourth safe ticket ticket teaching kayak you're probably not going to teach kayak anytime because
kids keep going to the nurse right but for the most part yeah um so did you get a lot no i think
i got maybe two one of them was because i forgot to put like the sign back on the pool clothes. Um, and then the other one was
like totally a power trip move. My first summer, uh, there was a leadership girl. Um, like we were,
we were, we had to be back at our cabins by 11 o'clock at night and I was going to get some ice
in the cafeteria to get for my water. And I walked back and there was these
two girls sitting on their, uh, cabin porch, these two counselors talking. And so I stopped and talked
to them. And this leadership girl came up to me and she said, Hey, it's 11 o'clock. You got to go
back to your barn. That's what we call them at K country. And, uh, I was like, actually, I was
kind of a jerk for saying this, I guess, but I was like, actually it's 1057 and she's like, no, like it's 11 o'clock. I was like, it's not, it's 1057. We have three more
minutes. And she's, she's like, well, okay, then I'm gonna have to write you a safety ticket. I was
like, ended up, I was talking to my future wife, Catherine Hanson at the time. Uh, not really like
super crushing on her yet, but just getting to know her i guess um but then the next day sure enough got a safety ticket for this where this girl
no no i'm sorry i'm sorry sorry sorry sorry i was talking to the counselor the counselors i was
talking to oh one of the two girls i was talking to was katherine hansen okay i was gonna say no
this girl's name was missy missy came up to me and yeah it was like you i'm gonna write you a
safety ticket i was like no anyway the next day she's like I told you I was gonna write you one. So here you go
and she thought she was gonna like
Demoralize me and I was like, okay
I'll go talk to my director because that's what you have to do when you get a safety ticket at least at k-country
Yeah, so I talked to my director. His name is colin sparks. We call him sparky. It's like sparky
I got this safe ticket as missy said i was like talking to girls after you know
our curfew and i'll never forget sparky was like well were you doing some work
like i was like i mean i was just talking to these girls he's like you're fine like he was
just laughing about it so you're doing some work yeah i feel like i got tons of them back
of the day yeah but ward was always cool about him um i've heard that ward was like really strict about like giving them out though because he was like the main safety guy
right yeah he is big safety like of the directors he's the safety director so he's a little more um
into that but he was still pretty chill though one that i feel like i definitely deserve though
was just for like a morning skit i was trying to get the people going and so broke about i don't know how many rules at once but it was just like you know every day there's a theme at camp and it
was like today is going to be just like i forgot what it was just like epic day like everything
you do has to be the highest degree most epic so i just planned this like morning skit
basically just breaking a ton of rules you know so i had a um a guy jumped off the blob tower back flipping and then land on his back
to blob me i was already on my back so then i did a back flip off of it and i was like holding uh
like a dodgeball or something so i threw that to one guy on the rings okay and then but there's
another guy in the rings so there's like so many rolls being broken like multiple guys on the rings
at once are you even supposed to be able to blob people no no cancer counselor can't blob counselors i was gonna say i never got blobbed
once yeah and then like back swiping off of it me being on my back two guys on the rings at once
and then there was like a guy going down the white slide you know i think did something wrong too
and it was awesome though it was awesome that one i deserved maybe a camper is listening to this
right now and they're like i remember that that. That was like the most epic thing, you know?
Yeah, I was all about making memories.
So tried to.
But yeah, great question.
All right, two to go.
Oh.
Hi, my name is Mallory.
Longtime caller, first time listener.
I've got a couple comments, questions, and concerns for you.
One, I went to Olathe Northwest, so go USD 233. Secondly, I live in lenexa and we have never had a chick-fil-a near so i was so excited when they opened and now i can eat chipotle every
single day three i'm an actual triplet yes there's three of us growing to my mother at the same time
um so jake i feel like you're kind of a poser. Yeah. And when I was, oh, this is my question.
No, you're not.
When I was five, I went on a walk and my mom thought I ran away, so she called the cops.
Have you ever had the cops called on you?
Or if you ended up in county jail and had to call someone to pick you up, why would they think you were there?
Cool.
Love you a long time.
Bye-bye.
Love you a long time. Lenexa getting a lot of shout outs today yeah
shout out lenexa great city of lenexa uh so funny thing about the triplets thing i went
wakeboarding this past week with gunner and her friend harrison and uh what was gonna say oh
gunner's sister was there which maybe i thought she knew me better than she did or whatever
but she was oh she has harrison and i if we were twins which i thought she knew me better than she did or whatever but she was
oh she asked harris and i if we were twins which i thought was so shocking that's a compliment
sure yeah and i said oh no uh we're not that's a funny thing to just like like what what a bold
what a bold assumption or not assumption but even like a question like i don't even think it's kind
of bold to just assume that you're brothers yeah right are you twins yeah so i didn't have anything funny to say because i was like uh
no um thank you though i was like well i i was like i funny you say that i am a triplet
um just not with harrison yeah thinking she knows my last name yeah she'll get this yeah everyone
knows you she does not get this she's like no way no way. I was like, yeah. And like Gunnar started to smile.
My dad's a triplet.
My mom's a triplet now.
Yeah.
She was like, that is so cool.
I was like, thank you.
Yeah. I kind of forget about it sometimes, but you know, yeah, it is pretty cool.
She's like, boys or girls?
I was like, both.
She's like, dang, that is awesome.
I was like, yeah, it is cool.
We've had, yeah, a lot of, a lot of people in my family have been triplets.
And so I've never told her any different.
No, she never figured it out?
Yeah, go Tar Heels.
Do you know why you're named Triplet?
What the origin of that is?
Was there some triplet in your past?
I assume so.
I think that's how...
It's funny.
Trey literally asked me this on his Do Less Guess podcast last week.
Same question.
That's funny.
I think last names
for the most part came from somewhere you know they were given names at one point um so i would
assume that hundreds of years ago there were triplets in our family either that or you're
just like really famous composers that wanted love love triplets in their songs yes yeah oh wait
yeah we looked train i looked it up i just that. It was, yeah, it's like a French word from like loves to dance or loves to move or something
like that is like what it means.
Okay.
So maybe.
There you go.
Makes sense.
Huh.
Or maybe there were just a lot of people in the womb.
So they're like, man, they love to move.
Man, they love to dance.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Huh.
Yeah.
I think a lot of last names came from somewhere.
I.
Yes.
Well, I don't want to say that i
may not be true okay yeah yeah good for you we don't say anything that's like not completely
true on this podcast yeah yeah i'm trying to get better about that um anyway brad you ever the cops
call on you no i don't not that i know really i don't maybe hey hey maybe i'm i was pretty bad
boy okay um no i don't think so but i did get kicked out of a football
game one time when i was in seventh grade a high school football game because i was on the top of
the rafters and one of my friends this is so embarrassing but one of my friends was like
walking below probably 15 feet away and i jokingly like spat down on him didn't hit him of course like
was not trying to hit him but the cop saw saw me and said, you, come down here.
And I literally had to go home.
And I got driven with five of my friends.
So we all had to leave because I got kicked out.
You spat?
Yeah.
Dumb.
But the girls on AIM that night heard you got kicked out.
Well, yeah.
I'm a bad boy.
My dad works at Aldi.
Oh, snap. Let's go. no my uh mom says i can talk till
11 but guess what it's only 10 57 you doing work yeah he's doing work okay last voice memo
hey jake and brad this is carolyn from kansas city and i just wanted to say i listen to your podcast
for my entire eight and a half hour road trip.
So thank you for keeping me entertained.

And it has to be a surprise.
And then let me know what you did.

Like you haven't bought for yourself for some reason, but it's like not even that expensive.

baltimore okay brad what is your review of the week?
My review of the week is from
On My Feet in the PNW
It says the real Office Ladies podcast
Which I thought was fun
Sorry but all fans of the office
Should be listening to Brad and Jake
Sometimes it's nice to give Brad the first mention
Am I right?
You said it not me
I'm just kidding
And not the office ladies
Love the idea of theirs
But they still don't know how to pod write.
Would love for more office dedicated episodes.
And while we're at it, I need more Trump impersonations.
Bradley, get on your feet already.
Keep up the great work.
Without you, few of us would know pickleball is a thing.
And if you know, you know.
So I just like that they like the office so much.
That's a fun subset of our fans.
It's like almost all of them are like pretty into the office with us. So yeah. And according to her, we're better at podcasting than two members of
the office. And they actually are like one of the top podcasts in the nation. Yeah. Which cut,
so I saw that on my road trip back from Texas. And so I was like, okay, maybe I should give
them another listen. They've been doing this for a while. It's just so hard to listen to.
Really? And so, okay, here's something I I'll say that I noticed in them that I think we do a little bit, but not as much as them.
One of them says something. And then the other one just like basically repeats it or like asks
a question about it. So you'll be like, Brad, I had a crazy day the other day. And I would just
be like, you did. And then they, you'd be like, I did. Well, tell me about it. I'm going to tell
you. And it's like, Oh, just like unnecessary dialogue.
Yeah, way too much narration before just like talking about it.
You did?
Yes, I did.
I knew you would.
You did know I would?
You know me so well.
I do.
You're one of my best friends.
And it's just like, oh my gosh.
If we talk like that, people think we were crazy people.
And they have such good material, too.
That's the funny thing is like you could just jump right into this and people would love it you do not have to like
sell us on your personalities at all like just just give us the behind the scenes yes i want
to know so badly like yeah about these random facts oh i just thought of a funny story about
greg daniels when he was playing mose oh greg love greg tell me you do i remember you used to love
greg i do love greg still do you i'm sure i do you probably have so many stories of greg too i do have a few stories guess greg oh my gosh
greg i should we should call greg we should call we should call greg we should call greg when's
last time you called greg well do you uh yesterday you called greg yesterday i called greg yesterday
on my phone do you have a phone i have a phone what phone do you iphone iphone yes iphone too
we both love iphones and Gregs! Oh my gosh!
We should call him on the same iPhone together right now.
Do you use speaker phones sometimes?
I use speaker phones sometimes.
Okay, you use speaker phones sometimes too.
I think we should use our speaker phones.
It's just like that!
And then they call Greg!
And then they do the same thing with Greg!
It's like, aww!
You're so close!
Like, anyway.
I listened to it for probably 20 minutes,
and it was like, i don't think i've
learned anything yet and i and i love they both use speakerphone i learned that they both have
they have the most popular phone in america they both have it the richest people out there anyway
i just was like man yeah so i i know sometimes you make a joke and then i try to improvise a
joke and i literally can't think of anything so i just say the same thing you say but at least the effort's there it's i'm trying darn it darn
it like they have these things every single episode i'm trying jeremiah um is that a book
of the bible yes okay thank you jeremiah 2011 oh duh um of course for i know the plans i have for you like eagles yo that's isaiah dang it uh isaiah that's
wrong i say it that's not right um i say i say i say i sit on you oh i say i say i sit on you
but they have these things called fast facts on the uh okay on the on the podcast is that
different than a fun fact uh sounds way faster it's it's faster yeah it's just quick you know
but that's the thing it's not quick at all Like I have some fast facts written down for you. You do. I do. Yeah. They're right
here on my post-it note. You love your post-it notes. Oh, green, yellow, pink. Oh goodness.
I was like, gosh, just give me your fast facts. I'll read them for you. 30 seconds.
Anyway, I understand it's a podcast and you can listen to them for a long time, but whatever
is just, and I know that it's not easy to podcast as Catherine has told us.
And we probably do things that are annoying to a hundred percent.
We do.
Yeah.
So stop listening to us.
If you don't like us,
we don't need you except for your money on Patreon,
please.
Okay.
We got a lot of good reviews this week.
I think we got like 13 reviews this week.
Yeah.
A lot of really good ones.
It's hard to choose one,
but my favorite,
it's hard to choose this one,
um,
is from Isaac's biggest fan.
Isaac's biggest fan.
Yeah.
I'm just kidding.
I'll stop.
It's called How Many Isaacs Are There?
In all caps.
It says the other day on my way to work, I was relisting some old podcasts.
I realized that I needed some explanations on your friend Isaac.
Through your stories, it seems like you might have two friends who are named Isaac.
And as a dedicated listener, I'm invested in knowing if these are different people or the same person is roommate isaac the same as pickleball
isaac is that the same isaac from your super bowl party go chiefs wait super bowl party
well we watched the super bowl together it wasn't really a huge party was isaac even there yeah oh
okay yeah okay cool um and which isaac was there. Okay, so Super Bowl Isaac was there.
She continues.
And which Isaac did that lady pronounce as?
Isaac?
Give us a breakdown of which Isaac is which.
Or maybe there's just one Isaac and I'm crazy.
Also, y'all crush the Mr. Brightside jingle.
My favorite song ever.
Okay, bye-bye.
We're here to say there's one Isaac.
There's one Isaac and he is awesome.
He's great.
He's so great.
He's great. He's the best. He is roommate Isaac awesome he's great he's so great he's great he's
the best he is roommate isaac he's the roommate pickleball isaac he's espresso isaac i'm surprised
you didn't throw that in there because that's like how everyone first got introduced to right
six hundred dollar espresso isaac um he's also isaac he's also i dash sick yeah i sick um and
yeah he's the one from the super bowl party that i can't remember apparently he was the one from
the chief's game that we got scammed on he was definitely there for that chief's isaac, he's the one from the Super Bowl party that I can't remember. Apparently he was the one from the Chiefs game that we got scammed on.
He was definitely there for that.
Chiefs Isaac.
He's one of our best friends.
We love him.
Yeah.
Okay, Brad, I think it's time to end this episode with a jingle.

It's a rickshark test.
What do you see?
That looks like Banksy to me.
Looks like sex appeal to me.
Oh my goodness.
Don't say that.
My mom listens to this.
Joe Badaya.
Oh, Solomon, really?
Oh my gosh.
Here's a funny story for you about sex appeal in the old Testament.
Sean Mendez too?
Back in the day, one of my youth pastors made the mistake of telling a bunch of middle
school boys, like, yeah, it's kind of crazy.
There's a whole book of the Bible basically dedicated to sex.
And they're like, what?
Like there is what, what book is it?
And so he's like, uh, and he's like, I shouldn't tell him.
So he's like, uh, Leviticus.
And so, and so like one of these kids, like in my, we were at camp and he opens it up
and it says like, Moses took out his staff and it's like, okay so anyway that's that's the story it's like oh wait what does the swarm of
locusts mean std yeah exactly you do not want a swarm of locusts the plague yeah yeah i know it's
more exodus guys i know i know i know no no he knows okay well i think that's about everything
