Starting point is 00:00:00 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.
Starting point is 00:00:44 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.
Starting point is 00:01:11 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.
Starting point is 00:01:54 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
Starting point is 00:02:09 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
Starting point is 00:02:49 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,
Starting point is 00:03:20 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
Starting point is 00:03:56 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.
Starting point is 00:04:28 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.
Starting point is 00:04:39 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
Starting point is 00:05:06 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.
Starting point is 00:05:31 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.
Starting point is 00:05:44 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.
Starting point is 00:06:07 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,
Starting point is 00:06:22 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.
Starting point is 00:06:55 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.
Starting point is 00:07:10 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.
Starting point is 00:07:30 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?
Starting point is 00:07:45 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.
Starting point is 00:08:06 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.
Starting point is 00:08:23 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.
Starting point is 00:08:49 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.
Starting point is 00:09:08 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.
Starting point is 00:09:18 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.
Starting point is 00:09:27 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
Starting point is 00:09:45 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.
Starting point is 00:10:04 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?
Starting point is 00:10:23 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?
Starting point is 00:10:44 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
Starting point is 00:11:27 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,
Starting point is 00:12:13 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.
Starting point is 00:12:33 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.
Starting point is 00:12:42 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.
Starting point is 00:12:58 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
Starting point is 00:13:27 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
Starting point is 00:14:06 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
Starting point is 00:14:38 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?!
Starting point is 00:15:06 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
Starting point is 00:15:22 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.
Starting point is 00:15:41 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?
Starting point is 00:16:03 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.
Starting point is 00:16:27 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.
Starting point is 00:16:51 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.
Starting point is 00:17:13 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
Starting point is 00:17:58 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
Starting point is 00:18:44 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.
Starting point is 00:19:58 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.
Starting point is 00:20:28 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
Starting point is 00:20:42 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?
Starting point is 00:21:09 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.
Starting point is 00:21:23 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,
Starting point is 00:21:53 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
Starting point is 00:22:30 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.
Starting point is 00:22:55 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
Starting point is 00:23:26 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.

Starting point is 00:27:34 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.
Starting point is 00:27:42 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
Starting point is 00:28:03 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 grade level word. No problem. Furniture. Okay. You got this. I think I got this. Let's make this competitive. I think it was easy to write.

DI boys. DI. Abbreviation. That's too hard. Abbreviation. You can abbreviate it if you need to. Nice. So, huh. I'm worried about whether there's one B or two B's in abbreviation. I do stuff like that a lot. Abbreviation.
Starting point is 00:31:51 Okay. All right. 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
Starting point is 00:32:18 happening right now. We're almost to high school. You guys are. Mike has been held back. You guys are doing great. Mike's down to fourth grade. They keep moving him down. I can just see Mike is sitting over there having a sandwich, enjoying a drink. I'm doing all right. He started abbreviation with I. I. It does I's, man. All right, Andy, here's your eighth grade level word. Discrepancy. Discrepancy. Well. D-E-S-C-R-E-P-E-N-C-Y. Discrepancy.

Starting point is 00:33:18 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
Starting point is 00:33:39 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.
Starting point is 00:33:57 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
Starting point is 00:34:16 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!
Starting point is 00:34:40 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.
Starting point is 00:35:10 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?
Starting point is 00:35:20 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. And it's over.
Starting point is 00:35:30 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.
Starting point is 00:35:43 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
Starting point is 00:36:01 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?
Starting point is 00:36:22 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-
Starting point is 00:37:12 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,
Starting point is 00:37:31 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.
Starting point is 00:37:42 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.
Starting point is 00:37:56 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.
Starting point is 00:38:27 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?
Starting point is 00:38:42 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.
Starting point is 00:39:13 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.
Starting point is 00:39:27 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
Starting point is 00:39:47 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
Starting point is 00:40:24 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.
Starting point is 00:40:51 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
Starting point is 00:41:09 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
Starting point is 00:41:44 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
Starting point is 00:42:20 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.
Starting point is 00:42:48 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
Starting point is 00:43:08 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
Starting point is 00:43:26 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
Starting point is 00:43:56 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.
Starting point is 00:44:38 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.
Starting point is 00:44:58 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...
Starting point is 00:45:21 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.
Starting point is 00:46:05 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,
Starting point is 00:46:29 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...
Starting point is 00:47:01 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
Starting point is 00:47:32 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.
Starting point is 00:48:09 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,
Starting point is 00:48:26 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.
Starting point is 00:48:42 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.
Starting point is 00:49:00 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
Starting point is 00:49:27 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.
Starting point is 00:49:35 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
Starting point is 00:49:51 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
Starting point is 00:50:32 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.
Starting point is 00:51:12 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,
Starting point is 00:51:34 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
Starting point is 00:52:01 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?
Starting point is 00:52:45 You ready for this? I have purchased... Okay. Are these sizes? Two? Yes. No! Yes.
Starting point is 00:52:53 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.
Starting point is 00:53:01 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.
Starting point is 00:53:17 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.
Starting point is 00:53:47 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.
Starting point is 00:54:02 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.
Starting point is 00:54:29 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.
Starting point is 00:54:53 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
Starting point is 00:55:39 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,
Starting point is 00:56:09 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.
Starting point is 00:56:23 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.
Starting point is 00:57:07 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.
Starting point is 00:57:28 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
Starting point is 00:57:45 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
Starting point is 00:58:32 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.
Starting point is 00:59:04 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.
Starting point is 00:59:48 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.
Starting point is 01:00:10 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.
Starting point is 01:00:27 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.
Starting point is 01:00:49 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.
Starting point is 01:01:06 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.
Starting point is 01:01:22 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.
Starting point is 01:01:51 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
Starting point is 01:02:11 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?
Starting point is 01:02:56 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.
Starting point is 01:03:19 It is strange. And I learned about hot Dr. Pepper. Yeah, that's new the hot doctor hot doctor Hot doctor doctor alert that is it for today's show.
