What happens when three buffoons give life advice, explore unrealistic situations, and
give random topics more thought than they probably deserve?
It's the Spitballers Podcast with Andy, Mike and Jason.
Yada yada, oh well, banana.
I know what you were going for because I'm in on the planning for the show.
Right, but the others.
No, I mean people should know, but I was going to say you almost then turned into a crooner.
I did.
Yeah, I mean I didn't really know I knew what I wanted to sound like
I wanted to go for a little bit of an Eeyore
But it but but then you know, but you couldn't stop the crude. I was actually a little jealous
I feel like he got out of like he didn't have to do a scat
Which is which kudos because it was very clever and it makes complete sense
I'm just, I wish,
I wish I was the scat on this episode. You wish you had thought about it. Yeah. Well,
we're drafting boring things on today's podcast.
Crooning is not boring. No, no. And it's hard to,
if Eeyore had been doing most of his talking with music in the background,
Eeyore would have actually been a crooner. I don't know if you knew that.
Winnie the Pooh. That should just be, that should be the one on one.
For boring? Just the whole show. Now see that is, that's a terribleoner. I don't know if you knew that. Winnie the Pooh. That should just be the 101. Just the whole show. Now see that's a terrible take. Well it says Mr. Rogers. Yeah. No, no, no. Winnie the Pooh is actually good. Thank you Mike. Things can be good and boring.
That's not like completely mutually exclusive, but it is a boring show. So that means by, you know, that logic,
then some boring is good?
Yeah, like the Grand Canyon.
Oh my gosh.
Oh man, here we are.
This episode is a huge problem.
Here we are.
I'm just saying, it's amazing.
Jason has been.
It's also boring. I tell me if you're hiking
the green can you. OK. Maybe that's not boring. But if you're just standing up looking out
of the view don't do it. Don't do a podcast like this with like an ADHD guy or just someone
who's an unsophisticated swine. Yeah. Would you rather in highway to spell on the show
today. Is highway this highway to spell boring Jason
Can you spell the word boring?
be
Yeah, that would be the shortcut we are what two episodes away from Al breaking in with the scat
Episode 249. What's up, Al? What's up?
Yeah, talk about Jason not being grateful for the the scat he gets out of. He was giving you a hard time for getting out of a scat. Speaking of owls scat, I had a daydream while
in the bathroom minutes ago. Oh, good. And usually these are things that you shouldn't
share on a podcast. This is totally fine. It's on topic. I was thinking, I know owl,
I know he's going to be all prepared for his scat like last time.
And so I had this daydream where next show,
Andy hits the button, Mike, you're about to scat,
and I jump in and I say,
oh, we're gonna surprise Al and make him do it now.
And so now that I've just shared this,
he doesn't know if I'm going to do that or not next episode.
You don't know if I'm gonna do that or not.
So he's gotta prepare. So he'll just be ready ahead of time. That's right. I can tell you I have nothing prepared currently. Oh
Yeah, go with what I went with
It was great
Welcome in everybody. Thank you for supporting the show
We exist because you listen and we appreciate you listening and telling your friends about the podcast. I was talking to somebody the other day who was kind
enough to say that like sometimes they have a bad day and the antidote is this
ridiculousness that they put on to cheer them up because nothing on this show we
don't take it very seriously as you can tell but it just lightens the
mood yeah Eeyore would have been Tigger if he listened to the show he'd be
jumping around and being all crazy you know the characters at least yeah it's
not a bad show it's just it's boring it's a good it's good have you seen the
latest movie no not the live-action okay no get that one no The one with you and McGregor? No, not the live action. Oh, OK. No, get that one.
No, the one with the Baxson.
I have not seen it, no.
It's great.
I made some Huffle Ups and Woozles reference
the other day.
Sensational.
And the people around me didn't know what I was talking about.
What?
They were very confuzeled?
That is correct.
All right, let's get it going.
Would you rather? All right, Logan from Patreon. gone.
Would you rather?
Alright Logan from Patreon, would you rather not be able to bend at the elbows or bend
at the knees?
So you have to basically replace your leg or your arm kind of with you know.
So the joint is gone.
The joint is gone. It's going is gone. It's one long
Yeah, we got sticks. I mean, I guess you have ankle joints and wrist joints still right, right, right?
Yeah, you got hands and feet that can move independently, but you can't bend I
Mean these are both these are both real bad
I feel like one is way worse which your default is gonna say the legs are worse
Correct, cuz you're going to walk around
and you're going to look ridiculous.
It's not just for that.
The problem is you can be sitting, well, it's not comfortable.
You're sitting, but your legs are out in front of you.
OK, Jason, work on your computer right now
if you had no elbows.
With a problem?
No elbow joints.
Easy.
That doesn't look easy.
It looks stupid.
I'm not saying any of it looks good, but I can easily type from a distance.
But now sit in a car and drive without your knees. How you doing that?
I don't think you could do the arm one in the car.
You could drive with your forearms.
Are you putting them through the steering wheel?
No, I don't think through.
Because if you have to hold them out here, your legs aren't reaching the pedals.
No, this is a hands-free operation.
This is forearms.
You know how you- Yeah, you can do the forearms.
You turn with your forearms sometimes.
How's your pickleball game?
With either one.
I mean functional.
Well, not functional with the knees.
Yeah, if you locked your arm out,
you could still make some things happen.
Make some things happen
I think you're disabled either way. I think it's gonna be it's gonna be a hindrance
Which one looks worse
so the the straight legs reminds me of
speaking of the bathroom, when you've been on the John there
for a while and you get up and you get the stanky leg and your legs fall completely asleep.
And then you, that's basically how I walk.
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
I walk with my legs basically locked out.
And is that because you think if you bend at all, you're going down?
Oh yeah, for sure.
These legs don't work. Have you're going down? Oh yeah, for sure. These don't work.
Have you ever fallen down?
Yes, I have.
I have done exactly what you're saying.
There was a time it was...
I knew one of us had to have fallen.
This was real.
This happened, it was actually after a day where we played pickleball for hours.
You had some cramps? Well, my legs were just exhausted.
And then after that, I go home
and I'm actually sitting in my computer chair for a long time.
And that happened
where apparently I was sitting in a way
where my blood flow was cut off to my legs.
And they were completely
just asleep.
And I went to stand up.
I got out of my chair.
And you just went straight down?
Yeah, I just went to the right because it was my right leg that just was like, you don't
work no more.
And it really was exactly that.
I stood up, I told my legs to work, my leg didn't work, and I fell over.
Is there, I mean is this, if you didn't have legs or you didn't have arms, which would
you choose?
Is it different than this question?
Yeah. Oh yeah, this is much different.
Because you can still functionally...
Yeah.
Are you walking? I mean, how do you walk without being able to bend your knees?
Is there an argument to be made that it could actually be better to not have legs than to
have...
Legs without bending knees?
Legs without bending knees.
Possibly.
I think there are some advantages.
Yeah. Yeah,
because they're gonna get in the way if you can't bend the knee. Oh yeah, I mean
you put it this way, use a wheelchair with straight legs. Right. That's
uncomfortable. That's, you're knocking into things. Yes. You're not gonna be a
good dancer, that's for sure. That's my problem.
You could still do spins.
I'm a great dancer right now.
But if you locked my knees...
That's the end.
It's over.
Then you wouldn't want to watch me dance.
I guess we have to answer the question.
I'm going to keep my functioning arms.
As will I.
Yeah, I'm making a three pack.
I may do what you said, though.
I may just have them removed.
The arms?
No, the legs.
OK, that's, yeah.
I'm saying I'm keeping my arms functioning.
And then that's what you said, right?
Oh, yeah, yeah.
So maybe we just do like a group amputation.
OK.
Get a discount that way.
Yeah.
Like a group on? Yeah. Mm-hmm. Group off. Ohputation. OK. Get a discount that way. Yeah. Like a group on?
Yeah.
Mm-hmm.
Group off.
Oh!
Yeah.
Ethan from the website, would you
rather have odorless farts but 10 times smellier poop?
We're back, baby.
Thank you to all the listeners out there
that most of their questions have to do with fecal matter.
Would you rather have odorless farts
but 10 times smellier poop, or odorless poop,
but five times smellier farts?
This is a magical question,
because I'm gonna let you all in on a secret.
But it's only 5X smellier on the farts.
Why is it not 10?
I'll tell you why.
It would've made the question too easy.
I mean, we're taking odor away from something
and then we're magnifying the other, why?
I'm still taking the 10 times smell of your poop, Mike.
Right.
Yeah, so I mean, that's the point here,
is it's trying to make this an even question.
Some people go all the time.
Go poop all the time?
Yeah, some people are three, four, five times a day.
I have a family member that I know is five or six times.
I see them every time I look in the mirror.
I'm in my family too.
But wouldn't that change the equation?
How many times a day are you?
I'm usually once, maybe twice.
Once, twice, Mike?
Yeah, one to two range. Yeah, I'm a one
I'm a onesie you knock it out. I'm a onesie
Mike I am a onesie you have no idea what I do my one turn a day
He did he was getting pretty riled up at the fact that there's there's people that have to go poop four times a day
Yeah, what are you doing? First time you get all that out. I think there's people that have to go poop four times a day. Yeah. What are you doing over there. You don't know how to poop right. First time you get all that out. I
think it's a privilege to be able to go more than one. Oh OK. So those jealous work. I'm
jealous if I could just. Al I'm four to five. You know how would you vote. Time he gets
all that. Is that what you're jealous of of the phone time? That's that's pretty nice
What's the limit that your your spouse can get mad at you for?
Because if you're because you're associating it like I'm gonna have my bathroom time. I'm gonna get on my phone
I'm guessing if it's a real poop. Yeah, if it's a real poop, what's real poop? You got a 10-minute window
Oh, you should be allowed 10 minutes in and out each time. That's not bad, but I doubt that's what you do. It's not like chess where
you have the running timer. You hit the button. You got 30 minutes a day. Yep. This one was
only 12 minutes. I've got, I got 24 left. Yeah. How long are each of these journeys
to the restroom and how much do we need to dock your pay? Uh, about eight to 10 minutes, eight to 10 minutes, four to five times a day.
Not all during the work hours. Twice here,
twice here. That's what's happened into our plumbing. Yeah.
He's really ruining that. Um, that's, that's why that's really,
I would imagine healthy. You're probably never feeling, uh, bloated,
never backed up. Brooks. That stuffed up. Never backed up.
Brooks?
That's nice.
Very important question.
Well, since I have to, maybe a couple times a day.
Couple times a day, all right.
Couple times a day.
We're all pretty regular here.
What if we had gotten through all that
and then you got to me and I was like, once a week?
Yeah.
I haven't pooped in five days.
Oh man.
That would be brutal.
So the, I mean. How do you not take the, just the smell of your poops?
You have to.
Because that's an environment that is mint.
Yeah.
It's got a fan built into it.
I don't have a fan in my, in my butt.
Can't, well you kind of do.
It blows air out all the time.
What is the definition of a fan?
Not, something that moves air?
Not a farting butt, Jason. Okay Okay. I mean does it have to like have
Oscillation no cuz Dyson has fans that it's just the ring. Well, it has to be able to
Produce air for longer than 60 seconds to that's stage one of a fan. Oh length of time
It's length of time. I don't know Jason might be able to pull that off
I can definitely pull that off if you're telling me 60 seconds
I can I can make this work going into work and going to people's houses if
You're a four to fiver
You have now now. What do you do because if it's ten times worse you you've blown the ace Ventura
Do not go in there
Well, I mean it's just it's a bit. Do you put a sign up. Yeah
you come with just a bunch of sticky signs or the or the tape for murder. The like crime
scene caution tape. Yeah yeah I think that's just have police tape with you at all. I could
just see Jeremy Al Borland panicking so much that he's literally just like replacing the toilet every time
Doing the plumbing. Um
Do you guys give me permission to?
Say one of the grossest things that's been said on this podcast. I don't know
Too bad. I take it anyways
Is it I need to be a warning? No, there's no warning. This is really just shameful and
Since I have very little shame this when you pooped your pants as a grown man
No, no, that's a well documented story. The documentary comes out on August 26th
No, I
think when this question was read all I thought was I
think I prefer stinkier poops.
Oh well, whoa!
I think I want to wreck that thing!
Like, what am I...
Wait, this is now, you're into it.
I think, this is a win-win. I don't have stinky farts and now I get a ten times stinkier poop?
Heck yeah! I want to be like, WHAT DID I EAT?!
I will be honest, the first-
if you make the agreement here,
the first couple times, I'm real curious.
Yeah! It's like-
But I think it will wear off.
Well, I mean, I'm just saying-
But 10x's don't underestimate 10 times.
That's true, and it's 10 times
whatever's normal. And cause sometimes
it's like whatever, and every now and then it's like what I just described.
We're going, whoa!
And I feel like that might be like 3X your normal.
Yeah, so 10 times the three times.
Like, now I'm, am I passing out?
Am I not expecting?
You might have methane poisoning.
Yeah, it could become difficult.
When you know it's bad in the bathroom,
you know that this is a really bad situation,
that you can't have anyone else come in here.
Because you can handle your own.
Yeah.
Yeah.
10x?
I'm still taking it.
You can't have stinkier farts. No one wants a stinky fart. I don't ever fart and go, oh, I'm still taking it. You can't have stinkier fart. No one wants a snow fart
I don't ever fart and go. Oh, I'm so happy that stunk if you had the 10x stinkier
You will be going outdoors
You have to leave where you're at and go outdoor like you might have to start telling people
I've got to fart. I will see you in 8 to 10 minutes
Oh, if you're not the warding, you know, you've got to walk away. I thought you were saying the ten times
stinkier. No, the farting.
Now I take my dumps outside. But that's fine too.
So I know you're going to have the fan on, but with 10X, I mean, that's
seeping out. You're going to need industrial fan upgrade.
Yes. Yeah, that will be something that you'll have to talk to fan upgrades. Yes. Yeah.
That will be something that you'll have to talk to your employer about.
And that's not a good conversation.
When you go in and you say, listen, I appreciate the job offer.
I had to make a deal.
I appreciate the job offer, but we will need to be, I have a condition.
Maybe you've heard of it.
It's 10 times smellier poops.
And we will need the company to upgrade this fan.
Am I completely alone in my thoughts?
I'm sticky.
Like is there a piece of any of you that's with me? That's like,
I get what you're saying for the first one.
I'm curious about the first one. I'm saying in life already. No, I,
I can understand like when you,
when you know that you've really done work and there is a there is a self satisfaction
of I have just destroyed this place. Yes. Yes. So thank you. I am with you that there
there isn't a do you are alone. There's a feeling of accomplishment. Yes. I just didn't
want to be the only I don't see any producers agreeing with you. I don't think I'm agreeing
with you. No not me. So I want to watch the world burn. It's just like when you go and you're like, I, oh, I
got it. I got to look at it. Yes. Yes. Yes. We're together. It's like, I got to check
this out. If I do, if you're telling me that you haven't gone and then go talk to yourself. I gotta I gotta see what just happened
You are a liar. You're lying
This is so wonderful because this is true of everyone women men there's no way that there's someone out there
You're never been like in a look. I gotta see
look. I gotta see it. It's shameful and it's disgusting, but it's true of every. I cannot believe there's someone that has never had that thought. That happens when
you're surprised. Yeah, at anything. What would be crazy is if this question was
it's a literal dice roll on each of these. So it's half the time is normal
farts, half the time it's ten times worse, half the time is normal poop, half
the time it's ten times worse, and you is normal poop half the time is ten times worse and you didn't know I think this is one of my favorite
show moments all time exposing humanity. Mark? They're checking their poop. No no no last question Have you ever called someone over? Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ever again. Can we turn that AC on down further because I am sweating over here. Oh thank you Mike.
Gotta ask the tough questions. For your humility and your humanity. Mark from the website,
would you rather have all your carbonated beverages be ice cold but flat or be warm but perfect carbonation. Ice cold flat. Easy.
I think you could learn to enjoy it.
I think the reason you hate a flat coke
is because there's an expectation.
If you drink a flat coke, it's old, it's wrong.
The flavor's probably still delicious.
You just, as soon as it hits your mouth,
you're like, ooh, yuck.
You know what? what generally the flat coke also comes with warmth well yeah and
melted ice yes like sometimes it's watered down so if you had a full
concentration of flat coke ice cold it wouldn't be that bad if you just knew so
the only way to really test it, you gotta pour.
Hot carbonated is just not a world I wanna live in.
You're not gonna drink it.
Hot carbonated means you have cans of nothing.
Is there?
I think it actually hurts more too.
Yeah, probably the size of the bubbles.
I bet there's something going on.
There's some science there.
Is there a drink that is a carbonated beverage
that's supposed to be served warm?
Can you think of any off the top of your head? The only thing I've heard of and I don't remember if it's flat or not
But hot Dr. Pepper is a thing. Yes, that is definitely I've seen it served Yes, hot Dr. Pepper, but I don't know how flat it is
No, it's not flat. It's not flat. No, they just heat up just hot. I do remember that
Yeah, so that is that is one hot Dr. Pepper. I do remember that. Yeah, so that is one.
Hot Dr. Pepper?
What are people doing?
You've never heard of this?
I've seen it multiple different places.
It sounds vaguely familiar.
Ironically, carbonated drinks tend to lose their fizz
at higher temperatures.
Okay.
So this is an impossible question.
Maybe a little bit.
Hot Dr.
Hot Dr.
Hot Dr. It's hot Dr. Pepper. This isn't just a hot doctor,
Mike. That's what I would, if I were ordering it, that's how I'd order. That's how it would
be on the menu. Yeah. I'll take a hot doctor. Yeah. Come on. Yeah, that makes sense. That
is absolutely, that's pro marketing right there. But no, are we all in agreement with
the ice cold? Yeah, I would take the ice cold.
And I'm actually curious. I call it cold, Dr. Pepper.
I'm curious how it would be,
because I don't think I've ever had ice cold flat soda.
No, I don't think any of us have.
But I guess that would be the way I'd go just because of refreshment.
Man, I feel like this just means that all beverages that were carbonated are no longer on the list. Think about this. We drink a lot of La Croix or the flavored water, carbonated flavored water.
When you take the carbonation out...
It's terrible.
No, it isn't. They sell Dasani and stuff that have
flavors in them. You just need the expectation. You get flavored water all the time. Flat
flavored water. Yeah. There's I don't know. There's something different about it. You're
not into that? I'm saying that a flat LaCroix is... It's because it's hot. It might be.
I know what you're saying. It's always hot. It might be because it's hot but it is disgusting.
I don't think I've ever had a chilled one.
We gotta do this for science.
You literally have to pop open a LaCroix
and then go put it in the fridge open
and then wait a few days and then go drink it.
I'm gonna do that.
All right, see ya.
I'm gonna do that right now.
He's out, Jason has left.
I think he really is doing it. Well, we gotta, because we gotta follow through.
Are we gonna keep the podcast running until it gets flat? What are the odds that that lasts a
few days without getting knocked over in the fridge though? Not, not high. I think we can,
just we would put a note on it. Put a note. Did you do you do it yeah I think Jason is coming back into the
studio he popped up somebody's gonna go find that thing be really disappointed we just
got to help him not throw it away they're gonna put up open can or someone will be in
there very soon and say ah the work is done for me ever just ready I'm sure Mike if you
opened a random refrigerator and saw an open soda you'd be like, thank you. That's so much easier
We grab that
Okay, well we'll run the test and report back you guys want to do one more or highway to spell
One more ten more. I don't want to get to highway to spell. Let's move on

Highway to Spell.
Apparently, Mike is the returning chump.
Oh, it says champ. Champion. Sorry. It's probably because you can'tump. Oh, it says champ.
Champion.
Sorry.
It's probably because you can't spell.
Oh yeah.
I think Andy went out right away last time.
He did.
He was out in fifth grade.
That was some baloney.
Jason, you were out in sixth grade where Mike won.
Let's try to do better, boys.
I did the best I could possibly do.
You did.
Do it again.
All right, Andy, here is your.
So I start.
Yeah, every time.
Because you only do it when I'm scatting?
You only put highway to spell when I'm scatting?
No, it's just always Andy Mike Jason.
This is not OK.
All right, go ahead.
Here's your fifth grade level word.
Cat.
Actually.
Oh, come on.
All right, that one I can do actually a C T U
a LLY actually I mean that one I can do any more brain busters thank you you got
it that sounded like a fifth grade word that sounded like a second grade word
no second graders would leave the second L out. Yeah. All right, champ, here is your fifth grade level word.
Continent.
Oh, that's definitely not it.
Hold on, continent?
Continent.
I was about to say the champ should always
start one grade level ahead, but.
We do do that after three wins in a row.
Oh, okay.
All right.
Continent, Mike.
I keep writing the word content over and over.
Content?
You forget to put more in there?
Yeah, I did.
Uh-oh.
Oh, this would be great.
This is a funny one.
This one does not seem particularly challenging.
It doesn't, but I'm sure I've got it wrong.
Yeah.
Continent.
You're good, Jay. I can see your board.
You're good.
Okay.
Continent.
Easy.
C-O-N-T-E-N-E-N-T.
Bye bye.
Yes!
Yes, the champ is gone.
The champ is gone.
Oh, it's an I.
Yeah, that's...
Dude, the I...
That got in your head.
I spelled...
Oh, you spelled content, so you left the E in there.
Yes, yes.
I got trapped on that.
But I was going to say also the...
I got trapped on that.
I got trapped on that. I got trapped on that. I got trapped in your head I spelled oh you spelled content. So you left the ear there?
yes, I got trapped on that but I was gonna say also the
I
Ne I had a word today
Like literally just today where I'm like the machines telling me I'm spelling it wrong
But what am I doing and that's cuz I put an e instead of a 9 look that was super embarrassing for Mike
Yeah, super. I can't
even believe that happened. We just need Jason to get this right. Cause if not, this segment
is real short. I'll be going back to the other segment. All right, Jason, here's your fifth

I do stuff like that a lot.
Abbreviation.
Okay.

Let's hear it.
Ab-ab-ree-vi-ation.
All right, I'll go with what I wrote down first to try because it looks right on my
board.
A B B R E B I A T I O N.
Oh baby. Wait is that how you spell domination? Because that's what's
happening right now. We're almost to high school. You guys are. Mike has been
held back. You guys are doing great. Mike's

That's right.
Man, if you could only got to 8th grade.
Jason Moore is on the cusp.
Oh, if I...
Of winning.
Let's do it.
Highway to Spell.
Alright.
Alright.
It wouldn't be the first time for the record, I believe.
It feels like it, though.
It feels like it would be the only time ever
Here is your eighth grade level word phenomenon
There's some letters in there for Mike
It's these vowels
These darn vowels phenomenon you say huh can I hear that a few more times while I keep writing?
Phenomenon.
Boop-doo-ba-doo-doo.
Phenomenon, boop-doo-doo-doo.
Phenom...
...on.
Okay.
Alright.
Phenom.
For all the marbles.
Oh man.
Phenom.
For the trophy?
He has many versions written down on his board. I wrote three
I wrote three different ways to spell this word. I am convinced looking at my board
None of these spell the word phenomenon there's well that's gonna that's gonna hurt you alright
I'm gonna go with I'm gonna go with try number three. My third attempt looks the most correct.
The rightest?
The rightest.
P-H-E-N-O-M.
E-N-O-N?
Yeah.
Oh!
Yeah!
I'm the smartest man alive!
So did you do? I went I know in at first, then I went
a no in second and the one that looked right was the E. I was I was flirting with a and
oh so I got him. Got it wrong. You got it wrong again. This this was I'll be honest
when Mike went out on fifth grade I I felt like I was playing basketball against a four-year-old.
Thanks, man.
And then you walked away with it.
And then a four-year-old dunked on you.
He did.
I sure did.
We got through fifth, sixth, seventh,
and then you won on eight.
Well, hold not we.
And Jason's not done yet.
Oh, do I keep going?
Yeah, you played so you're out.
Here is your ninth grade level weight?
Yeah, yeah, congrats're out. Here is your ninth grade level wave. Yeah.
Yeah, congrats.
This sucks.
Congrats.
Irreconcilable.

E-R-X-T-Y-L-P-W, irreconcilable.
Why did he ss?
All right.
Lucky guess.
Oh, dang it.
No, we're good.
Why did he ss?
Irreconcilable.
Irreconcilable differences.
No, I'm saying that just play it reconcilable irreconcilable difference it's not saying that just play again
irreconcilable
uh... you know like the pop in the middle the emphasis on the road with the
eyes
mike can only hear eyes
i are i i are i
all right we're moving on congratulations jason thanks the new
defending champ
which uh...
you know now the pressure will be on you next time.
Doubtful.
Doubtful.
The Spitballers Draft.
We are drafting boring things.
What are the most boring things in the world?
My number one pick for this draft? There are lots of options, but truly this is the most actively boring. Actively
boring. There is a 101 to me as well. Yeah. Actively boring to me is waiting in line.
Yes, I just went with waiting. Yeah I mean really it's
it's just endless and you can control nothing about it. In many of these lines
there is an aspect of claustrophobia built in. If you're at a theme park or
something like that there's no way out. You are waiting in line, and that is boring. Okay. Yeah, is that not your 101?
That was not on my list.
I had, I assume we won't-
Waiting is not on your list?
I had waiting rooms, which I assume we won't draft because you just drafted waiting.
Yeah, it's the same thing.
Like those are boring, but I don't know, when I'm waiting in a line, I don't know.
You're fine with waiting?
You're oftentimes exposed to the weather,
very uncomfortable here in Arizona.
Yeah, I'm not saying I love waiting in line,
it just didn't crack my list of top things.
Interesting.
Yeah.
All right.
Weenie the Pooh, boring.
Exactly.
Waiting in line, exciting and exhilarating.
Yeah, now you see me.
Mike, you are-
I don't, I don't understand you.
You are un-understandable.
When you have severe ADHD.
Those are irreconcilable.
In-reconcilable.
All right, I am going with waiting in line.
You are on the clock.
I'm going to burn this one because it
has to be on my list.
I think that there is a strong chance that neither of you
has this on your list.
Jason's psyching me out because he doesn't have a waiting on this list
But it's it's been talked about on this podcast many many times
And while waiting is probably the most boring thing possibly a close second other people's dreams. Yeah
Honestly it would it would not work would not have gotten back to you.
Oh, alright.
There's no one that has a dream
that doesn't think it's interesting.
And there's nobody that listens to a dream
that doesn't think, I'd rather be dead than listen to this.
So, which, how does that happen?
Ladies and gentlemen.
Because you were there, right?
Let's just, yeah, why you think it's it's you think it's interesting cuz you can see it
Yeah, because you're also you're explaining something that is really unexplainable because what's happening your dream is there's no it's not a
Real-life situation crazies craziness is just happening like the walls were there, but then they were like bent and you could see
Let's all agree. We all know this. We all know that when someone else is explaining
their dream to you, you don't want to hear it.
So take your own advice.
Nope.
Nope.
I know what you're saying, Mike.
You're saying don't share your dreams.
I totally understand it.
I agree with it.
And I don't do it.
I still share my dreams.
I'm not talking about your dreams and your goals
of I wanna be in the NFL or whatever, that's fine.
But don't tell me about the dream you just had last night
cause I don't care.
I usually preface it with saying,
look I know you don't wanna hear this,
but I gotta tell you about my dream.
Get a journal, Jason, write it down.
There is a right way to do it, only one way.
It has to be one small sentence if I say ah Jason
I had a dream that you got hit by a car last night
There it's over the whole story's over now then if you want more you can follow up. No. Oh really what kind of car was it?
No, but that's the response so someone says that I had a dream that you got hit by car. Oh
Cool What am I supposed to do with this information? So someone says that I had a dream that you got hit by car. Oh Cool
What am I supposed to do with this information?
Be bewildered by it that would be it what I think it is
I don't care. Okay, if you are the center of the dream like if I had a dream all about you
Yeah, and I tell you about my dream about you. That's better. You would still be bored, but it's better and I'll still tell you
I'm still tell you I'm gonna say to say, no, you're going to put
your AirPods in conversation. I am making a commitment to myself. I'm just shutting
it down. Okay. All right. Yeah. It's going to be, and I'm just going to, you better hope
they're not premonitions because I'd like to hear about those. Uh, Jason, you have two
picks. I have two picks. My one'm good. My 101 is on here.
And this is certainly not everybody's 101.
There are people that love this.
I mean, it's a treat.
It's their favorite thing.
It's a hobby.
It's a pop pop in our families.
I mean, this guy lives for this.
There is nothing on this planet more boring than fishing.
Ooh.
Fishing is, to me. Yeah, a
nightmare. Because you want to know how long you wait in that
line, Andy? I don't know 10 minutes, maybe an hour. You want
to know how long you go fishing? It's all dang day. Yeah, you're
sitting on a boat or you're even worse. You're on the side of a
body of water on the dock and you're just standing there
Oh, but you gotta be quiet. You don't want to scare the fish
Oh, no, don't have any fun. And you all you do is just wait and then eventually see that line over there
It's gonna move and then you're gonna grab it and reel it in you'll probably lose a fit. It's gonna break
It's gonna break and then but you get to start all over for hours. It is the worst
It's gonna break and then but you get to start all over for hours. It is the worst
Hobby or experience that I can imagine. I I don't get it. Not for me I do feel like it's one of those things. I don't understand. I
Feel like people that love fishing. They just love it. This is their whole world
Yeah, but I don't get it like maybe is there nuance to fishing? No, I don't understand. No, it's not a man
I want to catch one of them bluegills crappers
What there's definitely that because you have the people that are like the deep-sea fishers that your goal is a trophy fish
I don't I don't know the last time I fished
But I own I understand it as
Assuming you're out in a I have a cup of coffee
Yeah, of course you have...
Well, you have coffee, generally speaking, I think, in fishing.
Do I have Netflix?
No. But, when you're fishing, you should be in a beautiful wilderness location.
I mean, we're a little... I think our view of fishing is different in Arizona,
because it's like we have nasty man-made lakes that
are not necessarily picturesque.
But if you're in the river runs through it, you're in the middle of a forest and you put
on what were they the galoshes.
Oh yeah.
And you wash it up and you go and you you turn your brain off is essentially what I
think is going on out there.
So you're just enjoying nature.
That actually more than anything That makes so much more sense
because I can see people wanting to go
and just stand in nice nature anyways.
So that's something to do.
It's funny because every time I've ever gone fishing
in my life, because I'm not a fisherman,
I don't own a fishing rod, you know,
I go with someone else.
I am taking fishing.
And so we kidnapped art
So we are together
Being quiet doing nothing
Still have you been shushed? No, I'm well when I was a kid. Okay
I just thought maybe you'd be out there with someone you like and you try to talk to them
I actually think you fishing would be so much better if I was by myself
You know what? I mean? Like I would be less bored
When I'm just in my own mind. More eaten by bears though. You would just be sleeping by the
side of a lake. That's true. Or on the boat. But that's what I'm saying. A nap on a lake
sounds great. Alright, I've got one more thing. He would bring his own precooked fish. Yes,
I would. It's actually a Filet-O-Fish. this today breaded it fried it up caught this in the McDonald's drive-thru
All right, so fishing this is close to home
And now what's your second pick my second one here is?
A little specific, but I was just trying to really think about those times where you're just so bored
And you want to leave so bad. He's just so bored. And it's when you have forced small talk situations for, you know
what I mean? To me, it's specifically someone-
Very high on my list, Jason.
It's not a stranger and it's not someone you know well. It's someone you're like-
Isn't it if you're stuck at a dinner party or something?
Exactly.
Oh, oh, oh man.
And this is someone else's something important.
And so now I'm talking to this,
someone else's something important that I don't know,
but I know who it is and.
Does it matter if it's a place you don't wanna be?
Is it small talk at a place you don't wanna be?
I don't think the location.
Oh, it doesn't matter.
Will factor in. I am bored. I am bored out of my mind. I'm
trying to find things to talk about. And so you talk about weather and...
Yeah, it's real... Oh, it is physically painful. Yeah. Let's talk about something
that is just... It's not important. No one actually really cares about it. But we...
In a heck of a hot summer though, right?? Yeah We feel like we have to talk about it
Because we're looking here a bunch of hot days in a row the worst party is I think both parties are bored
I think neither one wants to be there there should be
When you go into those environments a kind of the get out of jail free opportunity
You get like five of them and maybe you know, you just hand somebody a card. You say you say
I'm sorry. You know what they would say they say oh thank you I was about to hand you one I'm glad you used yours and that's that's normally when
you want to share your dreams is that those events tell you what I dreamed
about they'll leave right away could you imagine small talk while fishing? Oh man, nightmare.
Uh, I think fishing is designed for big talk.
Mm hmm.
I just think like because you can have a real conversation
out there. But
quietly. Yes, yes.
All right, Mike, that that would have been my next pick.
Uh, because I loathe dumb small talk, and I'm gonna go with
with dumb small talk and I'm gonna go with,
I'm gonna go with errands. Running an errand and you just have to do all this crap
all around town and very odd, like the thing about an errand
is you know it has to be done.
It's not fun, it's monotonous, it's boring. And I don't know about you guys, but frequently,
I'll hit four places, and then you get home, and you're like, I feel like I have not accomplished
anything.
What's an example of a bad errand?
Is that like a...
Dropping a letter off at the post office. You know,. You know, like, just things where it's, especially it's quick.
But it's a 15 minute...
But you gotta go there.
It's a 15 minute drive, but I just pop in, I give them this, I go, hopefully I've planned
out my best possible route.
I go 15 minutes over here, because it's Arizona, everything is at least 15 minutes apart, drop
something off over here, you get home and go what what did you do today?
Nothing. I don't know I guess I accomplished something but I was bored
the whole time. Alright so you have other people's dreams and running errands
Jason has fishing and small talk man that feels like a mic pick and then I
have waiting in line and I have to pick two more.
Um, I'm going to, I'm going to go, I'm going to be honest.
It's not as boring as it was when I was younger,
but it will be my pick because it's not fun.
And it's made a mark on me.
Clothes shopping. Oh, okay.
Clothes shopping is boring because it just takes longer than you think it will take.
Yeah.
And there's always, there's tons of those moments
where you're like, I should try this on.
Oh, no.
But then, like, if I try it on, I
have to go into the try-on place and then take off my clothes.
Frequently now you have to go,
you have to talk to someone just so you can get in.
Just let me in.
It's a torture chamber.
And then the other option is to buy the wrong size clothes.
Those are the only two options when you clothes shop.
Yeah, you cannot buy the right size clothes
without trying it on.
That just doesn't happen.
Not to mention, you want bad small talk?
Enjoy that sales associate at the local clothing shop
that's going to try to connect with you
and weigh in on everything looks good on you.
The worst part is clothes shopping for someone else.
Like you're there with the wife,
clothes shopping or something like that,
and it's like, oh my gosh.
There's not enough benches in the world.
Because that's called, that's waiting.
That's true, yeah. that's all you're doing
I think I better be someplace to go get ice cream near there
You're you're waiting and there's no ride payoff at the end. That's right
The payoff is you get to leave the store. I think they should wait in a line with the husbands
Yeah, I think that's like to leave when I said waiting room versus waiting in line
I think sitting down makes it more boring than standing up
and having that physical activity.
And waiting in line, there's-
Oh, because you move.
You get a little progress.
Exactly.
There's constant-
Do you switch benches?
I don't get as, I should, apparently.
I'm learning this about myself.
I should be like-
In a waiting room?
Yeah, I should just start switching seats over and over
to be less bored.
That's not bad.
I have a really loud alarm that goes up.
You just go sit next to the lady that just saw the alarm. It's like you're at the the
Mad Tea Party. You just gotta keep switching seats. You are right that in a line as long as
you get that little drip of progression it does help the the situation. Sure. All right the third
one I'm gonna do is
Should have probably been my number one because it's actually the worst
This is the sneakiest third round pick in a long time because it is the worst
It's folding laundry
folding laundry is
awful I Don't know some people is it cathartic to some people no okay, okay. I don't I don't think it's torture, right? No one no one enjoys folding laundry. It's it's monotonous and boring. It's monotonous and boring and I'm bad
I'm not good at it. Like I know it not right. I can be mediocre and get by
But there's something when you do something for a long period of time
That's boring at least at the end you want to look down at what you have done and said, I did that well. And it is not possible with folding laundry. No,
I have never improved folding shirts. I've never improved folding laundry and I've never
improved wrapping packages. Oh yeah. Or wrapping presents. Those two things. I have hit my
cap that cap cannot be improved. That book 10,000 hours does not apply to those topics.
Yeah, I hit my cap at like 15. Yeah, I did. I do like a 15 year old job on that and then
I never got better either. You're 100% right on those.
So folding laundry, I just honestly of all the things that my kids, I would be willing
to bribe them to do for me. That is the one I've done.
And they're almost at your level. So it's not like it's even going to be much worse.
Oh, that's right, yeah.
Oh yeah, don't do it like a kid.
Yeah, right.
The only thing I have with that is when I actually do
wandering and folding and putting stuff away,
I usually have another distraction.
AirPods and a podcast or I watch a TV
while folding clothes on the bed or something.
I can do all socks.
Yeah, but- If it was all socks, that'd be a good time. I don't you got a match them all I
I'm presuming in this scenario. They're all matched. Oh, they're all the same socks
No, that means to you do do do I mean you put your socks together in pairs
I don't or you just throw them in a you know, I lay them out like I take my socks
I just lay them all out. Are you of each other you do pairs? Yeah
Yeah, I put them together in a pair but I have the... Are all yours the same? Just to be clear? Yeah. Okay then
that's fine. I have I have a real sock situation going on right now guys of of my too many of them.
Well yes number one I have way too many socks and my so like my my no-show ankle socks I have two different kinds and
same color yeah oh boy yeah they're just they're black but what but one of them
has a stripe and the other one is no just plain black and Jason and I both
know what you need to do right there I know what I need to do you need to burn
half of those socks dude I've got it a little worse than you. Wait, what?
You ready for this?
I have purchased...
Okay.
Are these sizes?
Two?
Yes.
No!
Yes.
I have...
Okay, I've got two problems here.
Okay, one.
One problem.
You guys know I love new socks.
Fresh new socks.
Yeah, you do.
I've purchased a lot of socks and I found socks that I really like.
They're these like black under armor, mostly no-show type of socks.
And so I bought a bunch of these socks.
I love them.
And it turns out my teenagers and my wife,
they like them too.
So they started using my socks.
They're wearing your socks, man?
They're wearing my socks all the time now.
So I bought more of them.
I have so many of these socks, it's unbelievable.
However, somehow along the way, one of my
Amazon orders was an extra large and one of my Amazon orders was a large. And when I reorder,
I never know which one to get. I get both. And so when I'm going to get socks and they're
identical, there's no stripe to differentiate them. There's no tag saying the size. There's
just one. It's like, it's like, You hold them up to the light?
It's like half of my socks have shrunk.
I'm trying to figure it out.
It's a nightmare.
Oh, and you can't really unring those bells.
It sounds like you got so many and the whole family uses them.
You have no idea how many of these socks I have.
How often have you gone one and the other?
I probably every other day.
I don't know.
They're so close, but they're so different.
When you put it on you, it's great. It's not uncomfortable. I'm not going to take them off. I'm not going
to be like, well, I did the work. I get to wear these today. Right now I could have two
different size socks on Mike. I genuinely might. You got to put in the work. And honestly,
I'm probably at an unspeakable number. I probably. I mean, unspeakable. I probably have 150 socks.
Are you saying over 100?
Yes.
I was going to stop you.
And when you were like, well, when
I put in my next Amazon order, it's like, my problem
is I haven't ordered socks in forever.
But when I did, I bought a different type.
It is terrible.
I do.
I need to dump them all and get rid of them.
All right. My goodness. All right. So I am waiting in line, clothes shopping and folding laundry. Mike, you are back on the clock.
All right. I'm gonna switch it up a little bit here and I'm going to say old movies.
Oh yeah! Because, yeah! And let me preface this by saying I am 40 so any
older than that so anything inside of that 40 range is probably okay but is
but the second you go out of my birth year mm-hmm you got a you got a
situation that this movie could be terrible and it probably is and it's
always and it could be a movie that is rever could be terrible. And it probably is. And it could be a movie
that is revered throughout cinema history. Yawn. Boring. Citizen cage. Gone with the
wind. Get out of my face. I hate it when people talk about it and I can't appreciate it. Oh
yeah. Oh yeah. And I went to... Because I'll pretend I appreciate it to other people I went to college for for oh, yeah
That's one of my favorite need to be sophisticated
I went to college for acting and directing and so there was an assumption that these great classic movies
It's like it's like Shakespeare. You're supposed to love them and I would watch them and be like this is so bad
It's so boring. Did you watch did you catch Ben Hur?
or me It's so bad, it's so boring. I love this pic. Did you catch Ben Hur? Or maybe?
Or Singin' in the Rain?
No, no and I never will,
cause they're boring.
It's a good pic.
Jason has fishing and small talk
and two more to finish out his draft.
Alright.
Make them boring.
I will make them boring.
I'm gonna make them something I can fall asleep during.
Like an old movie.
Like an old movie, good pick. Large room presentations.
Like like whatever lectures. We'll call it lecture. Yeah. Yeah. Oh my goodness. I mean
when we were in real estate school Andy way back in the day decade ago or whatever it
was and you had to sit in that like 300 person auditorium and try to pay attention to this slideshow and then I mean side that school was best taught in
a giant lecture hall being monotone to death. Yeah, I mean
any big presentation. I'm just bored out of my mind with I
don't have the I don't have the focus to sit through this garbage.
It's a good pick. What's your last pick?
My last pick is going to be and don't hear what I'm not saying
because there's an aspect of this that I love. But going to
bed.
What? Yep, just the I going to bed. What? Yep.
Just the idea.
Going to bed is boring?
Yes.
You end your day, you lay in bed, you have to wait until you fall asleep.
It's a boring thing.
That fits the ADHD that you're talking about.
Yeah.
It's like, oh, we're going to...
You have to slow down and you do not want to.
Exactly right.
So I'm going to pick that and
eventually I do fall asleep. I love sleeping. I love sleep. I just hate you don't want to
end your day. Yeah. The end of the day and going to bed. It's just not it's not fun.
Where's the fun in that forced break. You can't have fun anymore. It's by definition boring.
Then you get to sleep. That's awesome. All right. Mike, one more
pick from you. You just drafted old movies. You have running errands and old other people's
dream. I first I almost said old people's dreams, which are, those could be maybe more
entertaining. I'm sure they're a riot. Uh, and funny enough, you guys started talking
about it in the chat. I had it as a more broad Broad topic I had written down sports that you don't like. Okay, I'm watching golf and I mean you could
For I would say baseball definitely fits in that category
I'm kind of I think I've been converted on soccer but for all the longest time
Soccer was just horrifically boring if you ever tried to watch
Cricket as an American, you know, I don't know what's going on.
I don't care.
And I think it's the fact that everyone else is so into it,
and you don't care, that makes it almost extra boring.
Because I can't get in on this.
I don't understand it. So I'm pushed pushing the other direction it makes you feel like the
movies one makes feel a little stupid maybe because maybe watching a sport
that makes billions of dollars and everybody attends and you think it's
boring yeah I think I think you want to push back again and you know what I'm
not stupid your thing is boring about that there you go I think about was shocked. Baseball wasn't one of Jason's picks because he talks
bad stuff about baseball at the time. To be fair, if I would have, I would have drafted
regular season baseball. Yeah. Cause you can appreciate play. All right. For my final pick,
I have a few options, all very boring.
But I'm gonna throw the last one out there just on behalf of all of our kids
and the children out there and the teenagers out there.
And I'm gonna throw homework out there.
Cause homework is boring.
I don't know how many times the teachers look at this stuff,
but it's just something to keep you busy.
And it's...
Busy work is boring work.
I understand the concept of we're trying to, you know,
make kids go over it again.
How long is a school day?
Is it six hours?
Seven to three.
So, what, so seven to three, so that's eight hours?
Yeah.
I mean, that's enough school.
That's plenty.
It's a full-time job.
You don't need to do all that eight hour run, then go home and do another two hours.
No, we need to get rid of that.
It's not good, and so I wanted to throw it out there.
No, it's a waste of time.
So that closes out the Boring Things draft.
I had a couple that were honorary mentions.
One that I didn't mention because it's too narrow, but like honestly watching two people play chess.
Oh yeah.
Because I don't know what's going on.
I put that in the sports you don't like.
Sports you don't like.
I was going to say taxes, doing your taxes.
I kind of get a high off't like. I was going to say taxes, doing your taxes.
I kind of get a high off of that.
I actually like that.
Yeah.
It's like some people like cleaning.
It's the organization part.
And then the last one was traffic, which we drafted recently.
Bumper to bumper traffic.
It's a little bit like the waiting in line because you do move a little bit.
That's the reason I didn't draft it.
It would have been what I drafted instead of going to bed. I have ballet on there
I don't know if you guys have ever actually watched
I have been to cats opera ballet are both in the category of the old movies. Yeah
You're supposed to like oh, this is expensive. We got dressed up for this. What it's so boring
You're just watching people move around this This, an opera, this was great before
we had stuff that was actually entertaining.
Before the television and movies existed.
Museums.
Oh, stop it.
Blade Runner.
Oh boy, oh boy.
And I have this on my list,
because genuinely sometimes this is crazy boring,
but I also love it sometimes.
But reading can be super boring.
It's the material matters. I do. Reading would have been a fair answer. I do like
you exposing yourself of saying museums are boring and then you follow that up
with Blade Runner is boring. Yeah. Yeah, so I mean you're telling people who you
are. Yeah and there are people that are like me. I had C-SPAN on here. I don't know. No
that's great. That's a good answer. If you ever tuned into C-SPAN and then rice cakes.
Rice cakes? That's a great answer. Rice cakes? That's the most boring food that exists. Rice cakes
are the worst. It's barely an effort at food. Why do we? I don't know who's out there enjoying a rice cake. You're only eating because you're like, I can't have calories and I'm told I can eat
this, which half of it goes on the floor after you take one bite.
But come on, rice cakes?
That's pretty boring.
Let's do better.
That's a funny answer.
All right.
What did we learn today?
I learned I'm not alone in impressing yourself with a good bathroom blow up.
I learned a lot about Jason in particular that he doesn't like going to bed.
As a man who loves sleep, he doesn't like going to bed.
It is strange.
And I learned about hot Dr. Pepper.
Yeah, that's new the hot doctor hot doctor
