Hello folks and hey bear as always I'm Brian Bates here with Dusty Slay all right and Aaron Weber thanks for the intro Brian well I was waiting on you to throw me in there you're already laughing at me no i was laughing at just i don't know what i was laughing i'm just happy to be here with the two of you working on his pacing yeah it's good to see you guys man it's all about timing aaron weber nate is not here i talked to nate this morning yeah nate is uh he's in couples counseling oh no the two-hour podcast really took it out on his family. He did say, you know, we need to cut back, you know, because our schedules are so tight. Right.

And then the demand from people. He didn't run it by Laura when we went back to two hours. Yeah. Had a huge fight, so. We should have recorded that fucking Patreon episode. No, he is spending time with his family. He had shows in Florida this weekend, as did I. It was pouring down rain all weekend down there.

Whole state? Well, it wasn't the part I was in and the part he was in. Okay. And I don't even know, did the Daytona 500 happen? I think so. Didn't it? Despite the fact that I'm wearing a homemade Dale Earnhardt hat, I have not kept up with racing in some time.

I think it's today that they were recording this. So did they move it to Monday? Because it's usually Sunday. Yeah, it's a Sunday race. Anyway, there was talk when I was down there this weekend that the Daytona 500 may even be canceled because they had so much rain. Say all that to say… A lot to say cloud seating going on out here um nate stayed an extra day because he has his family down there and they're all going to disney world so okay he's doing some family time

and it rained them out so now they're going today all right so good for him. All right. Meanwhile, my wife's at home with the kids again. She's not happy about it, I'll tell you that. Well, you've been out of the house all day, I know. Yes. Because we just got through doing a thing. We did another Nashville Hot episode where me and Aaron ate a lot of hot chicken. Now me and Brian have gone and ate a lot of hot chicken. Now be honest, who handled the hot chicken better, me or Brian? Well, if you had to guess, what would you say?

A professional eater. Or an amateur. I think I definitely ate more than Brian did. I think you've still handled it the best than all three of us. Now, the one we did today, I don't want to give it away, but the one we did today was a lot easier than the one that me and you did. Yeah, that's amazing to me. Yeah. Now, maybe I'm just a little more immune. My tolerance is a little higher now, but I ate, I would not have ordered the hottest hot as a meal but i ate it just fine

okay yeah all right i'm excited to see that my stomach hurts right now but yours was so funny that i was like dang i'm just over here struggling and not seeing anything funny at all you guys were great in that first episode so well thanks man i was editing trick on their part i don't i don't remember walking i remember walking away going like that was i the experience was great but i didn't i didn't walk away going man i was funny the whole time but they did a good job editing it we started at mild and then medium and then hot and then there's two other levels i think brian was tapping out at medium that's that's true but to his credit though he went the whole way okay you finished it out yeah you're like i'm here i'm gonna do it right okay i not the second part the first i did it i didn't do it right but i struggled i have i have i mean i was a mess there

at the end well the uh when when our episode came out, Dusty, with Party Foul, they went bankrupt that week. So I hope wherever you film this next one, that won't happen to them. In a way, I think it would be really fun if it did, just so nobody else would want us to do it there. They would go, nah, this shows it. It's not even our fault because you're already going bankrupt before it airs. Right, right. But we're like the, what is it? The Madden curse.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. We're the nail in the coffin. Hot chicken just ends in Nashville. If you own a restaurant and you're trying to get out, let us come in and seal the deal for you. I'm hurting right now. My stomach hurts, but I feel pretty good. Okay. You both sound good.

You look good. Thank you. It's going to be a good episode. Yeah. At times, I couldn't tell if Brian was faking how much it was affecting him because it was a little over the top at times where I thought, well, you're really. Were you tearing up? I remember one time I said, I just need to spit. Do you think I would just be saying that in my normal conversation?

I mean, that's how bad I was. I was like, I just got to spit to get this heat out of my mouth. And then he was like, well, just spit in your Dr. Pepper there. The poltergeist would have been that was the big one at uh party party foul that would have been that was too much for me that was like an insane amount of heat yeah and i wonder if they were showing off a bit because they knew it was on camera like if i go to a thai restaurant and they go this is our hot because i like a little spice go, our hotness is one to 10. I'll go maybe a seven or eight because I like a little spice. But I feel

like if you say 10, they're going to be like, oh, okay. Oh, they're going to look out the window and see who it is. Oh, you think you can handle the 10, huh? We'll see. How about we turn it up to a 15? Like what do you get when you normally eat hot chicken mediums as high as i'll go and that'll change my day yeah because it's hot like we laughed at you for tapping out or not tapping out but struggling at medium but mediums legit hot dude even mild you said you noticed even with mild well yeah we came in there we didn't start with a regular we started with the mild and right away away, I'm like, oh, I can feel this. Oh, yeah, dude.

But it's like. It's in there. It's like, you know, this place we went, they're a little longer in the game. And I feel like they have a more balanced approach. A little more established. Whereas where Partyfowl was like, good, good, good, good. Every pepper in the garden. All of a sudden. The kitchen sink out of nowhere. Yeah, you're pulling out peppers, every pepper in the garden. All of a sudden.

A kitchen sink out of nowhere. Yeah, you're pulling out peppers that nobody's ever heard of. A reaper pepper. It's like, come on. Carolina reaper. Yeah. It's like, nobody's even heard of that. Yeah, I think you guys were doing too well. And then they're like, we got to do something.

Yeah. So they just threw it all in there at the end. Well, dude, that's going to be great, man. I'm excited to see that. Thank you. Thank you. Where were you this weekend? Oh, I was in Tulsa, Oklahoma at Bricktown. All right. And it was great. And I've been to Tulsa in a long time. Last time I was there was at, well, the last club I did was a Looney Bin there in Tulsa. And I always liked the Looney Bins, but I never headlined the Looney Bin in Tulsa. And I always liked the loony bins, but I never headlined the

loony bin in Tulsa. And that's my first headlining weekend in Tulsa. And it was hot. Wow. Hot shows. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, my feature, Will O'Donnell was crushing. I was like, I told him, I was like, this is the best shows I've ever seen you have. Oh, really? But the audience was just hot. They were there for it. They were into it. We had Adam Bush hosting. He's very good. So it was just front to back, a good show. Everybody was just... Are you noticing an energy difference since the Netflix special?

Yeah, for sure. Okay. That's awesome, dude. For sure. In a way that I'm like, I hope this is as good as what they're expecting it to be. Whereas before, I'm like, oh, half this audience doesn't even know who I am. So, yeah. So, it is a bit different.

And it's like, you know, people are like, I did radio. And it's like, now that I have a Netflix, people have always been nice to me. But now that I have a Netflix, people are like so nice to me. They're like criticizing their own cities. They're like, what are you doing in Tulsa? And I'm like, I don't know. I mean, they booked me. I like criticizing their own cities they're like what are you doing in tulsa and i'm like i don't know i mean they booked me i like tulsa it's also a major american city yeah you know tulsa is great it was very cold so i didn't do anything which i regret in a way but two great comedy clubs there yeah yeah so it's a fun you were just there at the loony bin yeah i was the loony bin last month oh yeah it was great, too. They're within a mile of each other.

They're very close. I was originally supposed to be at the Looney Bin this past weekend. Really? They're like, well, I don't know if Aaron and Dusty at the same time is going to be good for me. They framed it as it's not going to be good for either of them, but it would have been bad for me. So I'm glad that they switched that. It would have been bad for both of us'm glad that they switched that yeah it would have been bad for both of us i mean that's nice of you to say there's some erin fans out there that are like that you know people that go um dump dusty they would have been

yeah that's for sure the dump dusty crew would have been the moon landing crew would be there yeah a bunch of nasa scientists wearing their nasa shirts pocket protectors just nerds yeah reddit in the house well i was um i was in palatka florida what is it palatka it sounds a lot like a little bit like oh palatka Oh, Pulaski is what I thought of. Yeah, yeah. And at Church of the Heights. And it was great. A lot of folks came out.

Everyone was super nice. They gave us all custom-made Nateland shirts. Really? And I left them and my paycheck in the rental car. Oh, no. Last night, I'm like, I could get those shirts to take to the guys. And I'm like, where are those shirts at? I started digging through my luggage and all that.

And then I'm like, wait a second, my check was in there too. Oh, no. I retraced my steps, left it in the rental car when I dropped it off. Did you have to call the rental car company? How did you sort that out? Yep. At first, I called my hotel because I thought I left it there and then when they didn't have it i remember what i did so then i called the rental car company and filed a claim on lost and found they found it uh

this morning they emailed said they found it okay and i've already done a thing to have it shipped back to me yeah it sounds like a lot of red tape you think you you just call a guy and he'll run over there and get it for you. But yeah, you got to file a claim and fill out paperwork. Yeah. Yeah. So anyway, it'll be here in five to seven days. There you go. I love that.

I left my laptop in my hotel in Milwaukee two weeks ago. They emailed it to me. I mean, not emailed. They mailed it to me. That'd be not email. They mailed it to me. That'd be pretty impressive. Physically mailed it. I couldn't get the email because I didn't have my laptop. It's a catch-22.

Yeah. You've got to go there to check your email to get it. Yeah. It's a big attachment. Your laptop. I'm sending that through Dropbox. Yeah, I was was gonna tell y'all so you mentioned radio just now i did i was in dayton last weekend and i did a radio interview to promote the show and you guys know when you call in radio station typically they go all right we're gonna we're going live in three two one or they go Or they go, we're going to start recording now.

I call into this radio station, the local country station, and they were so nice. But I did not know that as soon as the call started, we were going on this interview. So the entire interview, I thought we were making small talk. Before the interview started, i gave the worst 15 minutes of radio anybody's ever heard uh she goes i answered the phone she goes so you're gonna be in dayton this weekend i go yeah i just had the yeah we just had a family funeral that i just came back from and i was like oh yeah it's been like tough like logistically it's been real tough but uh but yeah man i'm excited being dating for sure and she goes oh my god i'm so sorry are you okay

i got yeah i'm i'm good i think i got some kind of science infection or something i was like after this call i'm gonna go to urgent care and hopefully they'll just give me a steroid shot and she's kind of like she's trying to be an interviewer right and she goes so like what what can we expect from the shows this weekend and i go hopefully it's better than last year because i was like i'm just talking candidly to her i go last year the shows were fun but like it was supposed to be three shows and then they had to make it two so i don't know if it stays at three shows i'll be pretty pumped and then she she goes, and that was comedian Aaron Webber. And I was like, oh, my gosh, dude.

And then the call ends. It hangs up. And I was like, if anybody heard that, they were like, what type of comedy does this guy do? He just complains about his life. It was awful, dude. I mean, some truckers out there listening and being like, wow, that guy stinks. You got to put that on them, though. I mean, it's like, come on, let me know I'm live. Well, I think it was a miscommunication of mine.

I mean, I should have. That's a lesson in that. It's like, don't save anything. Like, kind of come out of the gates and just think the mic is hot. Yeah. Because that was just awful radio. I was surprised anybody showed up at that show. Well, you know that like when you're doing those and you work with this guy, Alan Rommelfinger, too. And when they, he will line up hours of radio in a row. A whole day of radio. I did.

I've done four hours where I call a new radio station every 15 minutes. And it's like, yeah, you get tired. And so it's like when they answer the phone and want a small talk with you before you do the interview, it's kind of like, all right, I've been talking all day. Let's just do the interview. And so, yeah. So the small talk of that is the worst rating. Like if I'm first two or three calls, my small talk is great. I'm funny in the small talk. But I call, you know, 25. I'm like you.

I'm like, yeah, I just had a funeral. Well, this was a one-off. For my soul. This is 730 in the morning. I wake up and I get a cup of coffee and I'm like, let's do this, dude. Just gave the worst interview. That's so funny. I love that. All right. That's crazy. cup of coffee and i'm like let's do this dude just gave the worst interview i had one guy all right that's crazy that was comedian aaron weber everybody come see him oh god

did you what did alan set that up yeah that was with alan we haven't talked about it okay see me i would text alan right away go hey i'm man. I had no idea I was live. I would have texted him immediately. I was going to tell you all. I've been getting on the road. I've been getting Airbnbs whenever I can. If I have a friend with me. Do you all ever do that or do you just like doing a hotel?

Do you prefer a hotel? I prefer a hotel. Well, with the theater gigs that I've been doing, they don't even. Here we go. Here we go nate 2.0 over here well they don't include a hotel right when the club books you they book you a hotel or they have a condo or something yeah so if i'm taking a comic to the theater it's like i'm booking my hotel and their hotel so if i can can do an Airbnb. Yeah, it's nice. I'm in, yeah. I like it because usually you save money if you're factored in buying another comics hotel room.

And I like having just a living room where you can watch TV together and just hang out and just have like a fun weekend, right? So I've been trying to get Airbnbs everywhere I can. I was in Toledo this weekend. Shout out to the Toledo Funnymo. Sold out two shows there. Let me see your eyes.

That's pretty great. You are correct. You got my baseball card right there. Yeah. How about that? If you want to know his stats. Topps is trying to shut me down on that. Really?

Yeah. Well, a friend of mine who's in the card industry reposted it, and they were asked to take it down by Topps. Topps should be happy. You're pushing their brand. I know. Well, it's not an officially licensed tops product, but I wanted it to look like a real baseball card.

Mint condition, Aaron Weber. There it is. Rookie card. Autographed. That's the real deal. So anyway, I got a house in Toledo this weekend, Airbnb, and I show up and it's a duplex, you know, it's like two. And I walk in, I put the code in and immediately i'm like oh this

place kind of this place kind of stinks it's not awful but you're like there's like a construction ladder just in the living room the refrigerator doesn't work somebody put ice in the freezer and it melted and then like little things you can nitpick like there's a keurig machine but no coffee stuff so i'm just i write it off in my head as like well it's just kind of a you know a dud of an airbnb but it was fine so anyway i'm on the plane yesterday flying out of toledo and the guy who runs the airbnb sends me a message and is like hey you stayed at the wrong side of the duplex oh so this was like he's trying to set this other side of it up to become an airbnb one day i stayed at like an under construction house all weekend and i want to be like well maybe don't make the code

the same for both sides of the house right you've been blowing it out i know you've been blowing it it's just the comedy of errors out here man i was like well that does explain the construction ladder just sitting in the living room yeah i didn't even think to ask that guy's like i could have rented that other side out if i had known you to just to his credit he felt bad he was like i'm sorry I know it wasn't as nice as the others. I can't imagine how nice the other side was. They probably had a ping pong table and, you know, coffee. But no money, no

refund. Oh, no. No, no, no. That was the end of the conversation. He's like, these Southerners, man, they'll stay in anything. We can edit this out. You got a little food right there on your shirt. Gosh, no, please leave that in. What is that? I don't know. You've not even had anything to eat since shirt. Oh, my gosh. No, please leave that in. All right. What is that?

I don't know. You've not even had anything to eat since I've been here. I haven't had anything to eat today. I don't know what this is. Oh, my gosh. Well, keep it then. Whoa. That is frightening.

Okay. Yeah, leave that in. All right. Wow. I can't believe that, though. I mean, I can believe the radio thing. Yeah. Leave that in. All right. Wow. I can't believe that though. I mean, I can, I can believe the radio thing, but I mean, I feel like I would have Airbnb, I would have messaged that guy and been like, there's a lot of stuff going on. And I did message him and go

just a heads up. Cause I didn't want to get blamed for it. I go, the fridge is not working. He's like, well, I can come take a look at it now. Uh, but if you're not using it it i'll just take a look after you leave and i go we're not really using it it was cold enough we just put stuff outside in the snow you know living you know living like that that's how zach townsend my buddy did you tell zach i did tell him he's like i can't believe he's like that makes so much sense now that now that you said that but anyway fun weekend at toledo then i uh was in oklahoma city at brit the other bricktown just up the street from dusty one show last night a lot of uh not mainland people out there man it was awesome awesome so thanks everyone for oklahoma's crushing it it's oklahoma's great dude dude it's like um it's uh all the things that people like about texas but it's like it's navigable and it's like it's all the things that people like about Texas, but it's navigable.

People are so nice there. I really like Oklahoma. I really like it. I'm not even joking. I'll say this. On your Rated Red episode, the big thing was you rubbed your eyes by mistake. Right. I did not wash my hands after. We just. Right. I did not wash my hands after we just got here.

And I just. I still not wash my hands. I just rubbed my eyes and now I'm feeling it there too. I'm not just doing it because Aaron did it. I'm like, what is going on? We're all a little embarrassing today. I got food from who knows what on my shirt. If you need to take a break, we can.

No, I think I'm okay. I just can't. I can't see anything. So. Are you serious. No, I think I'm okay. I can't see anything. So are you serious? No, I'm okay. All right. I'm worried about you,

man. I appreciate that. You should be, you should be. Um, well, those are hot weekends. Yeah.

Yeah. We're out here, man. Come see one of us. And Brian may get paid soon for his, if that money comes in from that good thing, they can pay in cash i know i never see it again i mean i could have just voided the check but you know they made these shirts for

us that's right they're very kind i didn't want to say sorry yeah because i told him i'd wear it on the podcast which i will and so greg warren i don't know if he ever told that story on this podcast but he told me a story about working with ron White at like a loony bin type place where you all stayed in one condo together. Right. And at the end of the weekend, the room was so trashed because Ron was the headliner and it was so trashed. And like, I don't know if Greg's saying he was just trying to clean up a little bit because he wanted to get invited back. And he found Ron's check for the weekend just crumpled up on the counter. It happens. Wild times.

Y'all want to get in these comments? Let's do it. Who wants to read them? I think you should, Brian. I like you running things. You could do them, or we could take turns too, like we've done. Well, let's not over complicate things. You'll meet it, though. The guy who can't see. I'm just kidding. just kidding we can do whatever well hey you know aaron is uh really on it these days and uh you know he's really uh was nailing the radio he's been staying at the right places yeah making the right call so cleaning my shirt yeah

um so aaron i guess you can read them kevin green uh by the way these comments come from twitter instagram youtube apple podcast reviews and brian's home address no which we will post in the description of this episode you gotta show up though or if you see yeah if you see brian out with his family try to enjoy a meal, please approach and give him your questions. Or you can email us at natelandatnatebargotsy.com. Gotsy, but it's gotsy. You can bring the comment to me at a show along with a gift. And I'll make sure it gets to Brian.

Aaron's been killing these clips lately we've been posting on social media. If you noticed differences, becausearon's been doing them and he sent me one this past week on valentine's day and i was out to lunch with my wife i know you don't honor valentine's but but i was out to lunch with my wife for valentine's and you sent me the clip to look at and so i just watched it i didn't listen to it okay i just watched it and And I'm like, it's funny, but I don't know. And then I didn't realize there's sound to it. It makes all the difference in the world. Yeah.

So I made this clip of Nate kind of just basically writing a love letter to stand up comedy. And I'll be honest, I made that in the morning. I was pretty proud of how it came out. Yeah. You know, I was just, let me run it by Brian real quick. Yeah. Probably just text back. I mean, it's not, it's interesting, I guess. Yeah. You know, I was just, let me run it by Brian real quick. Yeah. Probably just text back. I mean, it's not, it's interesting, I guess.

Yeah, that's what I said. Jeez, dude. I was like. That's exactly what I said. I was like, man, Brian, I spent a little time on that, dude. But then if you watch it with the audio, there's, you know, there's a little something to it. Yeah, you put symphony music to it. And then when you finally say the punchline, I think you're trying to say symphony.

It makes it funny. Cuts out. Yeah. All right. But I wasn't getting the full context. We're doing fun stuff. Follow us on social media. I didn't watch that clip, but now I will go watch it.

Yeah. No, you were tagged in it. Because. I appreciate you taking an interest. I just was like, you know, I'm on the podcast. So when I see the clip, I'm like, well, I saw this. Yeah. I saw this live.

Now that you know, you're the punchline of it. Will you check it out? Yeah. Okay. I want to know if I'm involved, well, I saw this. Yeah. I saw this live. Now that you know you're the punchline of it, will you check it out? Yeah. Okay. I want to know if I'm involved. Yeah. No, you're involved. I mean. But if it's just a clip of Nate talking, you're like, I'm not watching.

Yeah, Nate just gets real passionate about comedy. Yeah. I'm like, yeah, yeah, I like comedy. All right. You know? First comment comes from Kevin Green. Dusty is supposed to be the conspiracy theorist but i have bad news for aaron cow tipping is not a real thing your friend was lying to you even if you could sneak up on a cow which you almost definitely couldn't it would take at least three or four

people to push one over well i'm pretty strong i don't know about kevin but i feel like i could now i saw this uh i saw this comment earlier i did text my friend who told me that uh he had gone cow tipping and i found out that cow tipping was a euphemism uh for something he was doing which i don't you know we shouldn't talk about on the podcast i think i'm picking up what you yeah yeah let's just say he would go out to a pasture and just kind of have fun out there and then you know that's what he's doing oh maybe i'm not sure i have no idea but now i'm lost well he would uh partake in illegal activities okay yeah and that was what he would call cal okay yeah but it was a bit of a bummer because i've i thought people really did this all this time you thought your

friend was just a good old wholesome. Just abusing animals. Yeah, right. You find out he's doing drugs. Yeah, that's what it was. So it's a bit of a bummer. But thank you, Kevin. I did not know that. But that blew my mind because cow tipping is referenced all the time.

I didn't think it was real. But then when you said your friend did, I was like, well, maybe it is real. What did you think it was real, but then when you said your friend did, I was like, well, maybe it is real. What did you think it was? I thought it was just something that people joke about, like in the Chris Farley movie where he takes Rob Lowe. Tommy Boy. Tommy Boy. But you never actually see it happen. I've never seen a video of a cow being. I thought it was a trick to just get people to try to do it just as a prank.

Oh, wow. But you said it, and you're right. I just heard you say it to do it just as a prank. Oh, wow. But you said, and you're right. I just heard you say it. And I just went along with it. Talking about like, like happy Gilmore meet me on the ninth green at 9 PM. That kind of thing.

Okay. That'd be a real mean thing to do. Yeah. I guess trampled by a gal up there. Braves fan 27. I like that. Anytime someone says something I don't agree with. Now I find myself doing the dusty shoulder shrug while saying, well.

I don't even know the shoulder shrug. I guess I'm doing that involuntarily. But that's a good way to go because, listen, the more you start to realize what's going on out here, the more you'll disagree with. Because nothing is the truth. There's no truth out here. Everything's a lie. Everything that you see all the time is a lie. Nobody knows what they're talking about. I mean, nobody knows. We all are just reading things and we're like, well, this is true according to the person that wrote it. And we don't know history science we don't know wow they're that they're now even saying that the whole six foot uh thing that we were supposed

to be doing was not based in science the whole stay six feet away from each other they're now admitting there was no science in that and it's like that was the whole thing and their defense was just well well yeah stay away from each other. Don't get close. Don't spend time with each other. But Braves Fan 27, it is cathartic in a way. You know, it acknowledges your disagreement without starting an argument. And it's, let's just move on and agree to disagree.

Because there's no point in arguing. There really is no point. Never. There's no point of dialogue between people that disagree. That's the takeaway from this. You can't have dialogue. Don't talk to people. If you're friends, sometimes you can have dialogue, but I've had lots of friends lose it on me over stuff.

And I'm like, okay. I've been that guy. I don't know if you guys have lost it on me. No, I've never lost it. You're always like, the Bible's fake. You can't trust it. The Bible's the only truth. No, I've never lost it. Well, you're always like, the Bible's fake. You can't trust it. I'm like, yes, you can. The Bible's the only truth. It's the only truth.

Okay. And only some of those versions. Death and taxes. Amanda Fraunfelter. Great name. Fraunfelter. That is a good name. We have noticed ever since he joined the podcast that Dusty adds an unnecessary T to about 30% of his words.

He repeats every word out loud that we hear with an extra T. It's a funny little game to play every time we listen. Once you hear it, you can't unhear it. Well, I have no idea. I don't know that I'm doing that. I-dee-it. I have no idea. I don't think I said I-dee-it.

Did you hear that? That is crazy. Oh, please. I don't think that's crazy. Did you hear that? That is crazy. Yeah. Oh, please. Dusty T. That's wild, dude. Oh, my God. I don't know if I can listen to you anymore.

Someone who said you say it after the word G-O-O-D. Good? Now you're thinking about it too much. I said good time. Well, maybe that's what it is. Yeah, we're having a good time. Just instinctually, you start to say time after the word good. Yeah, we're having a good time.

I don't know. Well, I don't know. Remember when we said Amanda Fronfelter had a good name? Mm-hmm. I take it back. I didn't even say it, but I take it back. I didn't even say it, but I take it back. Yeah.

Appreciate the comment. MC Prime. MC Prime. Maybe a rapper. It's got to be. Or a host. Or a number. A steak.

Or an MC squared. Maybe just a square. Maybe some type of cut of meat. I was thinking about Prime. MC? A Prime number of meat. I was thinking about a prime number. I wasn't even thinking about prime. MC prime rib. Could be Deion Sanders. I cannot understand people's, that is to say, Aaron's obsession with the Shawshank Redemption.

It's a decent movie, and I'm not going to hate on people who love it. I'm just saying Nate doesn't need to feel like he's missing out on anything. Wow. I'm going to disagree. Yeah disagree yeah obsession might be a strong word i do like the movie i don't have a statue of stephen king in my house you have a poster of i don't write letters to frank darabont thanking him for writing the movie i don't do anything you have a poster of raquel welch i do have a show shake poster at my house but i don't have a statue or a shrine. The fact that you know the guy that wrote it. Well, Stephen King gave him the rights for $1, which I always thought was a cool story.

I didn't know that, but I knew Stephen King wrote it. No, I mean, whoever the other guy you named. Frank Darabont? Whoever that guy did. Yeah, he's kind of a big director. Is he? There's a Green Mile, too. Okay.

There's also a Stephen King adaptation. Okay. Green Mile's great. Yeah, he's also an entourage as himself. So, big Frank Darabont fan. But I don't know if I'm obsessed. I have read the screenplay a bunch, and I have visited where it was filmed. I feel like anybody that knows any director other than the Coen brothers is obsessed with movies.

Steven Spielberg? Steven Spielberg. Scorsese. Tarantantino these are names in the zeitgeist that's what i'm saying no no but you're right though those names are the big names plenty's wood but when people okay yeah these are these are popular people i'm saying when you get into the names that aren't popular frank darabom or whatever like when you start getting into those people it's like you know you know too much it's also it's not like this is some obscure movie that it's odd that i like it's literally the number one rated movie on imdb so it's like this is a

well-liked movie it's a great i watched it last watched it last night. Yeah, did you really? It was on this- TBS? AMC. Yeah. And sometimes if I'm on my computer working or something, I just want some background- Sure. That I don't even have to watch that close and just enjoy it. Sometimes I just miss my friend.

Some birds aren't meant to be caged. What if, say, they had picked- Say Morgan Freeman wasn't in the movie. I know who was originally cast on this movie. Who was? It was supposed to be. The original offer was Tom Cruise to play the part of

Andy Dufresne and Harrison Ford to play Morgan Freeman's part. And thank God that didn't happen. I think that would have been a fine movie, but Morgan Freeman is what makes that movie great. Well, Morgan Freeman's really great. No doubt about it.

But I could not see Tom Cruise being Andy Dufresne, but I could see Harrison Ford. Harrison Ford's great. He could have pulled it off. Tom Cruise is great, too, but I don't see him as Andy Dufresne. Yeah. What about a Lawrence Fishburne? He could have been a good- Oh, he could have been. Yeah. Yeah, they're good Lawrence Fishburne? He could have been a good. Oh, he could have been.

Yeah. Yeah. Morpheus type character. I mean, I think I've done this before, but I've cast us all as the characters. No, I don't. I don't remember this. I'm Brooks. I think that's kind of obvious.

Outside world. If you haven't seen Shawshank, Brooks is 130 years old in the movie. Yeah. And he's institutionalized. Brooks was here. And he runs the movie. Yeah. And he's institutionalized. Brooks was here. And he runs the library. Yeah. Yeah.

Brooks was here. He had a little mouse. He had a little, yeah. No, a bird. Bird. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

He didn't have a mouse. Who had a mouse? Mouse was escaped from Alcatraz. I think there's a character that maybe had him. Now, you're thinking of the Green Mile. Yeah. Where the guy had a mouse. Stephen King likes to repeat some themes.

That's another Frank Darabum. Yeah. Anyway, likes to repeat. That's another Frank Darabum. Yeah. Anyway, I cast everyone. I mean, you're Andy. I love that. Okay. Yeah. You're the hardest one.

I kind of said Morgan Freeman. Okay. I like that. The guy who knows how to get things. Yeah. Wise guy. Street smart. Probably did do the crime. Deserves to be in there.

The one guy who admits that he did the crime. Yeah. Who's Nate? Well, Nate, there's two. There's Tommy. He's the warden, I think. And he's the warden. Oh, yeah.

Now, when the warden's like, you say obtuse, and he's like, what'd you say? Solitary a month. I'm like, that's Nate. Oh, yeah. But then when Tommy's learning English and how to spell, that's also a little bit. So you're just calling him mean and dumb. It sounds like that's what that boils down to. A combination of the warden and Tommy.

The warden's great. You know, isn't the warden also in Ace Ventura 2? He's in a lot of stuff. Yeah, it's one of those guys that's just Bob Gunton is his name. I think he's in a lot of stuff. You're obsessed with that movie. All right, I'll move on. Well, I'm with MC on crime.

Judgment cometh and that right soon. Now that I know you watched it last night and you've cast us all in it, I would say you're both a bit obsessed with it. Yeah. Or maybe Ryan just prepares for this podcast in a way that you and I don't. I got nothing else going on, guys. Next comment comes from Terry. Back it up, Terry.

Beta box baits. What is a beta box? Is that some ancient technology you had growing up? Yeah. Beta. Yeah. Was it a beta box? Is that what it was called?

I don't know. It is. Notice that. Okay. Is this another inappropriate joke? Somebody slipped through the cracks here. Beta box baits should do movie reviews for older movies that people may not have watched but are great you guys heard of the shawshank redemption

uh i'm all for that yeah let's do it let's try to think of what a good one was that i you know i mentioned i'm here a few weeks ago quiz show that movie came out about the same time as Shawshank. Never seen it. I think it's a very good movie. For anyone who's on a fake game show, not that Dusty would ever do that. You going to watch that? Maybe so, yeah.

I love an old movie. That would bother me if you do watch that. Why? Because I feel like I recommend stuff to you. What do you recommend? I can't even think of something now. But how eager you were to accept that recommendation made me realize

people don't take my recommendation seriously. Well, I think I do take your recommendation. Okay. All right. Have you ever watched anything projecting a little bit?

Yeah, I don't know what you've recommended. I'm sorry about that. That's less about you and more about me. Yeah. I don't know what you've recommended that I didn't watch,

but I love an old movie. Okay. Okay. 70s era movies are the best. You've seen Whiplash? No. You should watch Whiplash. I'm going to write that best. You've seen Whiplash? No. You should watch Whiplash. I'm going to write that down.

Nate would like Whiplash, I think. Nate would love Whiplash if he gave it a chance. It's about a young man trying to become great. It's about greatness and the pursuit of greatness. I'll watch that before I watch Quiz Show. That's what I'm talking about. Just go ahead and cross Quiz Show off of this. It hurts me a little bit.

Watch Whiplash twice. Go ahead. Have you seeniz show off of this. It hurts me a little bit. Watch Whiplash twice. Go ahead. Have you seen Flash of Genius? No. I think it's Greg Kinnear. It's about a guy who invented the intermittent windshield wipers, and then the government stole his idea. Oh, that's number one.

That's number one, because that's what happens. That's fair. That's right up Dusty's alley. That is what happens out here colin mckinley mount mckinley yep it's changed now denali yeah tallest uh mountain in the united states i think of the western hemisphere okay why didn't they change it because it was a it was on native land and the president came in it was just like well we're gonna name that after me so it was called mount mckinley and then mckinley died and i don't even

know who mckinley was is he a u.s president i think sounds like it yeah he's not one of the important ones it feels like so he died and then they everyone forgot about him they're like let's go ahead and rename it we didn't like they got to begin with so now it's mount uh denial well that's fine i mean why did mckinley deserve to have it named after him anyway We didn't like that guy to begin with. So now it's Mount Denali. Well, that's fine. I mean, why did McKinley deserve to have it named after him anyway? He didn't. He didn't. I think he just visited. Maybe he was president when Alaska became a state? Did he complete the Alaska

purchase, maybe? That might have been why. Who knows? We'll never know. We never know. We'll never look it up. Colin McKinley says, I'm a fifth generation farmer. that so i was curious about what y'all would talk about i'm sorry there wasn't very much good his first time yeah he found us by youtubing the word farming it was like oh this one there wasn't very much

good information on agriculture but it was so so funny to watch Aaron struggle to understand what a hay bale was. I think you know what a hay bale is. Maybe its purpose was what you. I knew it was hay. But I think there are a lot of people like me that you see hay all the time. And I think if you ask them, if you corner them in a room, put a gun to their head and go, tell me what hay does. I don't think they'd be able to tell you. You know, my dad raises hay every year, if that's what you could call it. But he, every year he has these fields. Harvest?

Yeah. He grows hay. He grows this tall grass and then he comes through and he cuts the hay and then it has to dry. Okay. And then you have to go in with the tractor. Does it dry by just leaving it out on the field? Okay. As long as it doesn't rain. If it rains, it can really mess it up. Okay. And then, well, I guess- So you don't want rain.

So they're the only farmers that don't want rain. You want rain before you cut it so that it will grow. But after you cut it, it needs to lay on the field and dry. And if it rains on it, it can cause it to mildew. Can you cover it up? No. It would be a big tarp. Yeah. It's huge fields. So then you go and maybe block the sun. Yeah. They're working on it. Yeah. But the, so then, you know, you have a tractor to cut and then you go back to rake it. You need the tractor and then you need a tractor to bale it. So my dad would have me rake the hay.

and they need a tractor to bale it. So my dad would have me rake the hay. And then my dad would yell at me from the other tractor if something went wrong that I didn't realize it was going wrong. But I couldn't hear what my dad was yelling. I could just see him yelling. And I was like, oh, geez, I'm in trouble. Turn that tractor off so I can hear what you're saying. But then he's got to drive all the way across the field to finish yelling at me. So I just know it's coming for a long time. And I'm like, geez, I don't even want to be out here. And now you're yelling at me because I'm not doing it right. No walkie-talkies or anything like that?

No. Yeah. I mean, they existed, but we didn't have it. Did you think hay bales were used for fall festivals and things like that? Well, they are. Yeah, they are. Seeding for a barn wedding, you know,

something like that. Uh, I'm going to do the haunted hay rides. Oh yeah. That was a lot of fun. Why is everything going to be haunted? Dusty just, well,

that's the only time they were offering hay rides. Yeah. Halloween season. Yeah. They were never given just a good old regular hay ride. Just a regular hay ride. Sounds so boring. It's just like a, you know, just a non scary hay ride. Just a regular hayride sounds so boring, dude. Just a non-scary hayride.

I think all hayrides are pretty scary, actually. You're out there on some windy road, dark. Got a lot of allergies. About to fall off a way. It's allergy season. That is scary. Unless you take Magic Spoon. Oh, yeah.

That's the easier than ever. They offer variety packs for flavor. My sister, it was a running joke in our family. My sister could not handle people chewing. You could be having a peanut butter sandwich, and she be, you know, in another room in the house and just yell, stop chewing. So that's crazy. And she did some research and tried to convince us that she had a legit medical condition where the brain doesn't. It processes sounds of people eating as music or something.

She tried to turn on that music. She did like a presentation to the family. It was like, I'm not crazy. And none of us believed her. Yeah. They're like, this presentation is not a presentation that's saying you're not crazy. And she might still, I don't know, still process sounds that way or something. But she stopped talking about it after a while. I have a problem with chips or crackers or pork rinds when people are eating them around me.

People eat pork rinds around you a lot. Well, one time, I use that as an example, because one time me and my mom was in the car together, and she was eating pork rinds. And it's my mom, and everything's fine. We're just happy having a great day. And inside, I am so mad. I'm so irritated. Did you roll the windows down? I don't know. I just was like, I just

wanted to be like, hey, stop eating the pork rinds. What are you doing? Throw the pork rinds up. But she's your mom. You're not going to do that. Right. You're just going to suffer in silence. But back then. Bottle up and take it out on your family. Right. Tell it on a podcast. Back then, I ate pork. Now, I would not even.

I wouldn't accept it. No, you wouldn't let it in the car. Yeah. Now, I don't care what people do. Put whatever toxins you want in your body. Gabrielle DeJesus. That's a shock. De Jesus.

Jesus. It's probably shocking to you guys, but Florida is one of the largest cattle states in the U.S. What? That is shocking. Shocked cattle states in the U.S. What? That is shocking. Shocked. That is shocking. Hold on. Let's take a break and just process that.

Sorry, Gabriel. Gabriel. G. One of. One of the largest, one of the top 50. We have some weird slaughter laws. So we are now cow-c cow calf producers and most cows that are born in florida are slaughtered in the midwest trust me we have a lot of cows here i believe you

i believe you for sure i think last week we said florida took my complacency oh did we oh i'm sorry and that's what i'm saying it is is shocking to know. But one of, to me, is it's like one of amongst, you know, like how high is it ranking? Sure. Florida's a big state. If it were number one, you would have said number one. Yeah. And Florida, but it's like Florida has all this coastline that is just way different than what's going on in the middle of the state yeah i mean the middle of florida is a different vibe right right that's it makes me laugh because somebody's

like that's when somebody goes like um you know i live in one of the top the top 13 cities in the number 13 yeah yeah yeah i feel like if you were it'd be top 10 if you were 7 or 8. Top 13. I always thought that too, but you pointed out on this podcast, at least on some of those polls online, that's to draw you in? They do it purposely, an odd number? Yeah, some of the psychology behind BuzzFeed articles, an odd number has a higher click-through rate.

Oh, okay. So top 11 or top 17 works better than top 20. You're more likely to click on it. Oh, okay. For some reason. That's weird. It's pretty crazy. Teresa.

I'm shocked by that. Teresa O. I feel bad. I'm being mean to these people. I like it. I don't know why. I'm just joking around. It's a different vibe. I'm just joshing. I'm having a great time. I'm just mean to these people. I like it. I don't know why. I'm just joking around. It's a different vibe.

I'm just joshing. I'm just joshing around. Teresa O. I believe that medication has made our lifespan shorter. Oh, here we go, Dustin. Strap in. The older generation use more herbs, plants, and foods to heal their bodies. My great-grandfather used buttermilk to heal his digestive system.

He never used antacid, pepto, etc. He used leaves from a Japanese maple and aloe for skin care. Sassafras leaves for boils, acne, etc. He had skin cancer from farming in the sun for so many years, but lived to 100. Sorry, I didn't read the rest of the sentence sentence he was just saying she used all these leaves well and then the next sentence was he had skin cancer you're like okay sorry it's like a well

aaron radio interview sorry yeah sorry about that i agree but i don't know that i think it's the medication making our lives shorter i think it's the food is making our lives shorter the medication is keeping us alive but unhealthy so the food is poisoning us and making us so sick that we need medicine so you're you always have to go to the doctor and keep buying medicine because you're so sick from the food it's interesting yeah i agree with that her great-grandfather used buttermilk to heal his digestive system. I feel like buttermilk's causing some of the problems for me. I feel like buttermilk's why I need Tums. Well, buttermilk, yeah, I mean, it feels like in this that he's taking it like Tums.

Maybe I'm just thinking of pancakes. I don't know what else he would use buttermilk for. Well, I just eat a stack of pancakes. I'm eating buttermilk. My mom growing up said they couldn't, you know, buttermilk was the only thing they could afford. It was like a cheaper milk and that they would call what we drink now, sweet milk. Oh, and that was a real treat for that. I like that. milk. And that was a real treat for that. I like that. And my mom used to eat buttermilk and cornbread in a bowl. That was a real treat for her. She liked that. She would take cornbread and break it up in a bowl of buttermilk and eat that. She loved it. That's an Opelika souffle right there. Buttermilk and cornbread. I don't know. That was more from, that's more of a Chambers County thing.

I don't, don't blame that on Opelika. Elmore County. I got another, I got another what is hay type question. All right. What is buttermilk? Is it just milk and butter mixed together?

I think it's milk like, like when you milk a cow, like I think you like somehow like scrape the, like butter comes and it's kind of scrape the butter off the top. Oh, geez. And then, so buttermilk is just like, you don't do that. Oh. Oh, you leave on. Right.

So there's less done to it. And I don't know, but it's something like that. I've never milked it. You churn milk to make butter, right? Yeah, I guess so. It's just something about there's less going on with it. I don't know. You've done less to it.

I know when I was eating hot chicken, I wanted some milk today. So I could see how buttermilk might help your digestive system. Yeah, it wasn't buttermilk. But yeah, but I used to drink milk a lot when i had heartburn before i realized that the milk we have today is maybe not all that good but he just has loose pills in his pocket that he was pulling out i've eaten four or five tums on this podcast yeah that's because i had a lot of hot chicken what kind of tums you rocking over there these are regular tums today regular tums what do you mean well i i do a lot of chewable

digestive enzymes okay but i just have loose tums in my pocket so this is uh you know just uh you don't even have them rolled up anymore no he offered me he just pulls it out of his pocket like i think i'd rather burn up yeah just keep them in my pocket you just got a bunch of chalk in your pocket i got vitamins and digestive enzymes cow gut pills a lot of different things in different. I got vitamins and digestive enzymes. And cow gut pills. I got a lot of different things in different pockets. I got cow, what is it? Cow gallbladder pills.

Supposed to be the gallbladder. Like capsules? Yeah, supposed to be the gallbladder of a cow in a capsule. Okay. Supposed to help your stomach produce the bile that it needs to digest food. Okay. That's good. Yeah.

It's good to have those. Yeah, it is. In the holster at all times. Louise Malfair. Malfair. On the subject of living longer, there are places around the world called blue zones. They have the most people over 100 for various healthy reasons. Yeah, there was a tribe that this guy used to talk about that they found, and they were living to be like 120 years old, and they were eating apricots, and they would eat the

apricots and then crack open the seed and eat the seed. And also they would make a oil out of the seed and put on their skin. So they looked really good even at 120 years old. Whoa. Yeah. But why doesn't Guinness recognize them for their age? Well, they probably don't want us to know

that there are people living that long. Guinness doesn't? Yeah, Guinness is... The beer company? I don't think that's who he's talking about. That's what it is. That's the same company. Is it?

Yeah. Guinness Book of World Records because I think in a lot of... I don't think it's particularly the beer portion of Guinness that's worried about it. They share an office, I bet. I think Guinness beer, pubs, people were sharing fun facts, and that's how the Guinness Book of World Records started. That's interesting. A little spin-off company, yeah.

One of these blue zones is in California. You think they're all going to be third world. I don't know why I'd say third world, but places that eat much better than we do. Where in California, Nina? I think it was somewhere where they have a heavy presence of Seventh-day Adventists. Well, they're vegans, so that's got to be a big part of it. I had to work a Seventh-day Adventist wedding when I worked at a country club and it was a little different,

a different vibe at that wedding than the other ones I worked. No alcohol, no caffeine, no dancing. Yeah. Yeah. So that's a good old wholesome group of people. Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah. For sure. That's what everyone was saying. Uh, I'm just kidding. They were great. They were all very nice yeah but it was

all vegan stuff yeah i can't get down with that but uh blue zones yeah seventh day adventist loma linda is the core of america's blue zone region with a community of about 9 000 adventists who view health as central to their faith well that's got to be yeah it's a big part of their whole philosophy on life and stuff they don't smoke or drink alcohol that's another big thing you know one of the i looked this up i'm not i was not familiar with these blue zones i looked it up one of them is okinawa japan but they said in the 21st century that's kind of start started going away they're not living any longer than really rest rest what changed i don't know they learned about gmos about magic spoon i thought you're about to segue into no magic spoon would

extend their life that's right ryan hale we have a bat house and live in a nice neighborhood no complaints so far and sitting on the porch at dusk watching the bats leave the house is super fun dusty good call on nixing the owl house because owls eat bats. Well, that's interesting. I don't know that I wouldn't want to see an owl eat a bat though out in the backyard. I'll be honest with you. Yeah, I thought you'd be all about this. I just didn't want the owls to eat the neighbor's the neighbors cats cats and things like that and

i also like the rabbits that we have around i thought the owls might eat those they can eat rabbits i don't know but i would think so they'd probably take a shot yeah you know yeah just nip at them yeah but i wouldn't uh yeah i mean that's that's good to know though anything new at the bat house no i want to redo it because the day I borrowed my neighbor's ladder, he has a 40 foot ladder. I borrowed it and it was like real cold that day. And then my neighbor, my wife and my dad are in the backyard, like making fun of me about hanging the bat. I'm like, I've never hung a bat house. I didn't claim to be a professional bat house hanger. I'm just like, I don't know why you guys are all acting like I've been bragging about how good I hang bat houses. I just said I want to get it up in the tree. You're like, I don't even want y'all watching me do this. Go inside.

My wife's filming. Everybody's making jokes. I'm like, why don't you help me figure this out? Because my tree wasn't wide enough for the way they had you wanting to hang the bat house okay i think it's better if you put it on the side of a barn or something but i don't have a barn and my house is not wooden so i was just doing what i could do and they're all like oh oh mr bat out here and i'm'm like, Mr. Bat. They even call you Batman. I was going to say.

Yeah. You know what I mean? Yeah. Don't be so disappointed. Well, sorry. You're still on camera. If I asked you guys how many subscriptions you would have had, would you be able to list all of them?

And would you be able to tell me how much you're paying? No, because you guys are idiots. If you would have asked me this question before I started using Rocket Money, I would have said, yeah, but let me tell you, I would have been wrong. I would have been lying. I've had way more than I thought. And some of them, I was just wasting money. All of them. Rocket Money is a personal finance app that finds and cancels your unwanted subscriptions, monitors your spending, and helps lower your bill. It really is amazing. It crawls through your credit card statement. Why don't you go ahead and explain what that is? Explain it to me like you were a fifth grader. Yeah. It's like Brian says. What'd you say? I think it's like, you know,

there's maybe like an order of things we're supposed to be in a certain order, like waking up in the morning. We should probably wake up when the sun comes up and open the window and look at sun before cutting on a fake light. Letting some real sun come into our lives and go to sleep at a decent time. Get some real sleep. Not be so involved with electronics. So it's your body's internal clock and its relationship to your sleep cycle. And that's what I think. Okay. And mine, when I'm on the road is a mess because I get, I get done doing shows. I don't party now. I've not been smoking cigars. So I just go back to my hotel

room and look at my phone. It's the saddest. I don't even know what to do anymore they're like get rid of all your bad habits and i'm like yeah but what am i supposed to do with my time just sit in a dark room yeah yeah it's tough because by the time you get home from the second show it's late enough you could go to bed if you could go to sleep yeah but you're still wired from the show. I'm assuming. Yeah, absolutely. You ever be flipping through Tik TOK or something and you can feel it rotting your brain. Yeah. I had that this week.

I was like, I'm, I haven't been enjoying this for a while and I'm still doing it, dude. I had to like throw the phone across the room. Yeah. Let's start over. My circadian rhythm's a mess.

That's why I'm at the table. You guys could just put stuff down. That's why when I'm at home in the spring and summer, I go out in the yard or I go out to the land. I take my shoes off. I walk around on the ground. I touch some trees. I get in the dirt and I feel the sunshine. I feel wonderful. You do some grounding? Yeah, but in the wintertime, what are we supposed to do out here? Move to Florida or somewhere like that? At college, they used to have these lamps that you could sit in front of during the winter

that were supposed to simulate the sun sun lamps they had a bunch of them in a room people would go and just sit in front of them were they a certain color i don't know i never went i was you know strong-willed and you know so this guy i like that college you're not thinking about that stuff no but some people were. Some people, seasonal effectiveness. Right. Effective. Oh, yeah. Just sad. That's it.

And if people got sad, they'd go sit in front of those lights. I'd like a sunroom, like a glass room that I could just go sit in in the wintertime. Like what? So there'd be some heat in there. Okay. But the sun could still come through the glass. You want a porch. Yeah, like a glass.

Okay. Yeah. You're acting like this is a special type of. Yeah, but it is kind of special. Like Wendy's used to have off the side of the restaurant. You remember those? Oh, yeah. They still do, I think, right?

Oh, I know what you're talking about. I've been in a Wendy's. Yeah, they look like a little greenhouse. Yeah. Yeah, well, don't make me feel bad for going to Wendy's. Yeah. You're the one who wants the sunroom. I don't know. I haven for going to wendy's yeah you're the one what's the sun room i don't know i've been to wendy's in years loser just try to help out take my house seriously okay i just go in there for the sun i don't order it i don't even order

it it's like where's your green room i want to grow a little Well, there's some guy who's a circadian rhythm specialist. And he just wrote a new paper saying it can really affect your longevity by the light you expose yourself to. There's white light and I think blue light. And not literally the lights are blue, but a type of light, which is your phone, your tablet, stuff like that, that if you look at late at night, it affects your circadian rhythms. That blue light, right? Yeah, I know that people wear these glasses that eliminate blue light if they're looking at the computer for too long.

Really? I used to use an app. I stopped using it. It's called Flux. Yeah. And I had that installed anywhere. And it would change the color of your computer throughout the day to fit to fit it yeah it would like and by the end by like 3 a.m like your whole screen

is just orange because it's eliminated all the blue light could you even look at it that late well that's why i stopped using it because when i was doing photoshop and stuff it's hard to edit stuff everything's orange you know but if you doing Photoshop and stuff, it's hard to edit stuff. Everything's orange, you know, but if you're just browsing the internet, it's like, who cares what color stuff is, you know, but you're doing Photoshop like at 3am back in the day.

Yeah. I was doing some stuff. I was doing stuff where the color was important on the screen. You know, I've got my phone set up now where if I triple tap the back of it, it goes gray scale. What is that? It goes black and white.

That's called grayscale? You triple tap the back of the phone? That's an accessibility option on the phone, on the iPhone, where if you triple tap the back of it,

it goes black and white. Yeah, you can set that to do anything. If you go into the accessibility features, you can have that do something. I don't even know if I know about accessibility features. Do you have shortcuts or anything set up on your phone? Yeah.

Making fun of me for grayscale. This guy over here. He was just telling me about a mirror room or something on his phone. Somebody told me a trick to cut down on screen time is to just put your phone on black and white. Everything's a little boring in black and white. You don't want to scroll through. Instagram looks boring as heck. They're flipping through.

It's black and white. But I made it too easy to change back so I can just immediately tap back. And I'm like, yeah, it's boring. I guess the whole point should be, it should be difficult to change it back to color. But anyway,

it's gotta be like an algebra problem to get it back to color. Yes, exactly. Dogs going wild. Dogs are lovely, aren't they? You hate Nate's dog. Dusty hates Nate's dog.

I don't think you hate Nate's dog any more than other dogs, do you? And I get along fine with Nate's dog now, but it's like I've been over here now, I don't know, hundreds of times. Right. And she keeps acting like it's never seen before. They can sense fear when people don't like them. But it's like, I like them. I'm not afraid of the dog now. And I like her

just fine. But every time a dog goes off, Dusty's just like, geez. Come on, Holly. Let's get it together. She's still going off. I guess the postman is here. Yeah, sure. That's it. Anyway, this guy is an expert in circadian rhythms. He published

a paper saying the three most important things you can do. It's basically what Dusty said. Dusty didn't have to go to college for this. This is in my realm of things I pay attention to. Morning sunlight. Sunlight in general is essential, but morning sunlight is the most important.

Okay. In the spring and summer, I like to get up and I got some chairs out back. I'll go just sit out back in the sun. It's really great. Well, morning sunlight is one. If you can find a Wendy's near you, that's very important. Go there.

And then I already forgot what the other two are. Spending time outdoors, spending your sleeping at a regular time each day. Oh yeah. Don't stay up late or, or sleep till noon. That's what's messing me up the most right now. Cause I'm on like, I get up with my kids,

right? So I'm on dad's schedule. I'm waking up six 37 every day when I'm home, I get up with the kids. And when I'm home, I go to bed nine, 10 o'clock when I'm on the road though, I'm going to bed at 2, 3 o'clock.

You might not be starting a show until after 9. Yeah. And so, in Tulsa, the late show starts at 10, 15 on Friday. Oh, man. So, then- And I'm not saying that. I'm sorry. Yeah, that's late. Because I go to bed early. Right.

Because I can't imagine anyone in my realm would come to see me at 10, 15 at night. And then, so I do that. And then I go back to my hotel. Can't get to sleep. But yet I still wake up. I'm listening, Dusty. I'm sorry. Yet I still wake up at 6, 7 o'clock.

Okay. Even though, and then I'm like forcing myself to go back to sleep, but it's not a good. So you're cooked. Yeah. Yeah. So by the end of the weekend, I'm just like, and then I'm on the plane and I'm, I just feel exhausted. Yeah. I fall asleep and wake up and my neck hurts.

I was struggling today, dude. My flight, I boarded at 5.50 this morning. Yeah. The day before that, I boarded at 5 a.m. It's been two long days, man. Yeah. And I'm starting to that, I boarded at 5 a.m. It's been two long days, man. This is right around the time of day I start to feel it.

It's 5.30 right now. Full transparency. It's 5.30 p.m. It's hitting me. It's hitting me hard. And then you drink a lot of coffee, and then you're like, I'm about to have a heart attack. It's all farce, dude.

It's all farce because then, you know, you crash. Well, I still go to bed late and I sleep pretty late. Like 10, 10.30? At night. PM. Go to bed. I burn the midnight oil every now and then. I've seen The Tonight Show a few times.

At least the start of it yeah see who hosts watch the monologue yeah that uh no i mean everyone thinks because all the old jokes that i go to bed are right but you're still a comic so you're up late and yeah and um i've never been a morning person and my wife is a morning person so it kind of worked out well when the baby is born she gets up with the. And when the baby wasn't sleeping through the night, I would be the one that would stay up. Okay. And so I would on regularly, not now, but we'd go to bed like it on average, like 2 a.m. Okay.

But then I would sleep in the morning as late as I wanted. Is that a fair trade between spouses? No. No. Who got the raw end of the deal? I did. I would say you did by staying up yeah it's like i mean hannah would it was kind of the opposite for us hannah would do night duty i

would do daytime doing i'd be on daisy duty but uh yeah i definitely feel like i gave her the worst end well it's not like she got up at 2 a.m it's just that i would kind of be on watch if the baby woke up and now if the baby woke up at 150 i don't intend men to say get in here i stay up with the baby until she's back asleep sure but um the baby would always wake up by like five or something yeah and then my wife would be up but i don't know to me i got the better end of the deal because i'm more of a night person than a morning person. In saying that, I still stay up pretty late, but I sleep into the morning, meaning close to half of my sleep is after the sun's come up. So meaning that according to this and according to Professor Slay, that's not good.

Yeah, you're done. You're supposed to be sleeping while it's dark and up when the sun's up now is this reflected in the i wonder if this is reflected uh i'm not going to read this but in in the lifespan of different parts of the world like the parts of the world where you get a ton of sunlight do they live longer than the you know people that live near the poles and they don't get any sunlight is there any kind of data that reflects that? We'll find out. One of the listeners dig in. But don't some of the poles, half the year, it's all sunlight?

I don't think half the year. I don't know. I thought maybe near the poles. I'm just saying if the thesis statement of this is that your sun exposure affects your lifespan. Then we should be able to see disparities in lifespan based on sun exposure. Well, that's what I think is one of our biggest lies that are out there. And I got no way to prove it. But one of the biggest lies out there is that the sun is bad for us and that we should be out of the sun.

I think the sun is great for us. And like people wear sunscreen all the time. And I just think, I realize that certain people are more pale than others and they can burn and it's like, you know, but it's like, people are like sunscreen and up all the time. And I just, I don't think we should burn, but I think that our, our burning is a warning to our body to say, hey, you've been out here too long. But if you- That'd be 15 minutes for me. But if you're wearing sunscreen, you're not burning, but your body is still being exposed to the sun.

So you're not getting that warning. You're basically just putting that on your skin going, don't warn me when I've been out here too long. I disagree. That's what I think. I disagree. skin going, don't warn me when I've been out here too long. I disagree. I disagree.

I think sunscreen protects you from the dangerous sun rays that causes skin cancer, but it allows you to still be out in the sun to enjoy the benefits of sunlight. Right, right, right. I don't think so. Well, I think that, you know, sunscreen's only been around for a little while. And since the beginning of time, we've been out here. And the sun is the life giver. I mean, without the sun, the plants don't grow. I mean, sun's the real life giver, I think.

It's a big part of it. Can I counter that? Yeah, please. No, no. Let's keep you going. Dusty's an idiot. Let's move on. I think the sun's important, too.

Go outside and just get a good look at it just look at it it's good for you it can't burn your eyes you know if you look at the sun and it starts to hurt your eyes it's just a warning that you've been looking at it too long i agree april 8th go look at it what's happening in april 8th i think it's april 8th that's when the next solar eclipse oh in nashville i've, I've marked it down for what somebody said. I mentioned it. I wrote the date down. It's like the first episode of the new year that that's happening this year.

Okay. It's sometime in April. April 8th, I got. Yeah. Okay. I marked it down the other day. 2024 total eclipse. Yeah.

How about that? It's supposed to come in through the southwest and go up to the northeast. It's not going to pass over Nashville. But we'll be able to see it. We'll be able to see it a little bit, but I want total darkness. Yeah, it won't be total like it was a few years ago when it came through for us. But it will be if you go just a little bit

northwest. We can make a trip out to Memphis. Go check it out. Well, Memphis is not in the path of that either. We could. Why don't we all take a big trip the four of us to cape girardeau missouri do a podcast from out there do a podcast in the dark yeah you know we could do that okay all right uh i feel like there was one more point he made and i can't even remember what it was now. Well, the other point is that if you got to sleep in pitch darkness, leaving the lights on in the bedroom will shorten it.

Who's doing that? That's hard to do. I'm still a little terrified of it. But when it's pitch black, I'm like. Oh, you don't like blackout curtains in a hotel or anything? No, I do, but I don't want it to be pitch black i'm like oh you don't like total you don't like blackout curtains in a hotel or anything no i do but i don't want it to be pitch black i don't like when i can't see something yeah yeah you gotta see a little bit bleeding in yeah when it's pitch black i feel like totally lost like you're in a cave yeah can't tell i tell you what riding the uh

lost. Like you're in a cave? Yeah. Can't tell. I tell you what, riding the tour bus, which we've all done, it can be hard because all the rocking, but when you pull that curtain, it's pretty black in there. Oh, dude, you're in a cocoon. It's awesome, dude. Yeah. You slept on that tour bus?

I did Bert's tour bus. Yeah. Yeah, I slept pretty good on that. Was there a lot of good, healthy sleep going on on that tour? Yeah. Everybody got their eight hours? Yeah. Well, we did get a pretty good on that. Was there a lot of good, healthy sleep going on on that tour? Everybody got their eight hours? Yeah. Well, we did get a pretty good bit of sleep just during the day. And it was nice to have that curtain drawn back like that.

But yeah, they are staying up late. Yep. The buses I've been on, too, they got a little air vent right above you. And you can just angle that down. Yeah. And it's just, oh, dude. I do like a wind chamber of a, I like a fan. I like what they call the wind machine.

Oh, yeah. And it just, that's all you hear. I want, oh, noise machine. Yeah. It's also the fan. I want it to feel like a leaf blower is going off on my face. Yeah. I never told you this, but are you serious? Yeah. It's like a cool leaf blower's going off on my face. Yeah. I never told you this, but are you serious?

Yeah. It's like a cool leaf blower. Oh, yeah. Is a leaf blower not cool? I don't know. I just feel like it'd be a warm heat. No, I don't want a warm heat at all. I don't care.

Time of year, no matter what. I want cold air, dude. The last time we did, I think it was, I guess, Johnson City to Bridgestone Arena on Nate's bus. You were in the bunk above me. And your CPAP tube was hanging down a little bit. Dude, don't talk about that in the podcast. Oh, sorry. I'm just kidding.

Yeah, it was hanging down the side. A little bit. And I wanted just to mess with you. Just squeeze it. Squeeze it. Just kill me up there. And you'd be like, it's just a prank. And I me up there then you'd be like it's just a prank they're gasping for air is that oxygen coming through the seat pad it's just air dude it's

whatever and whatever it grabs yeah you know i want an there's a little filter the size of a postage stamp that i replace every six months you know but yeah no i do it you're supposed to replace it way more often i want like a a chamber of oxygen that i could just lay in and just get real good oxygen okay that's what i want yeah you've been getting you breathing good you should go to wendy's more often yeah you do all right man you can just go buy those too you know if you go to any like out sporting goods store in the hiking section they sell those just things of oxygen oh yeah go grab more of this how do you how's it work well you just you know you put it in you ever see an nfl player on the sideline they go get that oxygen

you can go get that you just put it in your mouth and breathe it in those are hooked up to like a machine right yeah hooked up to a little tank you can just buy that yeah you can buy like almost disposable little their size of like a two liter uh two liter coke oh i'm into that go go go get you an inhale i saw you did i saw a video of you doing smelling salts for the first time i did smelling salts this weekend was that real yeah that was real it's pretty intense man yeah it was called smelling salts that's like if you get knocked out or whatever they'd put that in there that wake you up well i looked into it a little bit they have been used for a long time they're using the back the ancient greeks i think we're using smelling salts to do god knows what but now it's mostly just like guys weightlifting or athletes will

do it because it gives you a big jolt before you're about to do something it's so much more intense than you think it is. You think you smelled something bad and strong, but you... I mean, it's... Wow, it hits you. I think I smelled it 20 years ago. Smelled what? I think my buddy had some. Oh, yeah?

Yeah. But they used to be for athletes that were like... He was passed out on the field, right? Oh, maybe. That would wake you up, though. Yeah. Somebody's passed out. That's what I envisioned in the 80s. There's always guys passed out on the field, right? Oh, maybe. That would wake you up, though. Yeah. If somebody's passed out. That's what I envisioned like in the 80s. There's always guys laying out on the field. They didn't know any better. They just put smelly songs like, get up and get back in the game.

I was doing it for an Instagram story. Why did you have it? Just a story, though, not a reel. You should have did it for a reel. Try to get those views. I couldn't think of a funny way to do it. You know what I mean? Yeah. i couldn't think of a funny way to do it you know what i mean yeah i couldn't think of a i think didn't feel grid worthy i think you should do that and then do it till you throw up and then that goes on the internet well if i would have had a more crazy

reaction to it i mean you gotta stay there let's it again. I should have brought some in today. Let's put that in your, what do you call that machine? CPAP. CPAP. Yeah, let's put that in the little filter. No. I would die. I think I would die. Because I barely inhaled.

Yeah. It just kind of touched my nose. If I would have really... I mean, I don't know if I'd be here today. I would have passed out in the under-construction Airbnb in Toledo, Ohio. You should try it again, and if it doesn't work,

use Delete Me. That was pretty good. As a person who exists publicly, I'm all over the place yep we are hyper aware of safety and security it's easier than ever to find personal information about people online all this data hanging out on the internet can have consequences in the real world nate and laura have been using delete me for a long time and now i've signed up i just got an update today with some of the stuff that they removed. Onboarding process is easy.

You put your info in, they crawl through the internet and they send out reports monthly and startlingly good. Did you have some of that video to show us? Yeah, yeah, absolutely. If you guys would banter

for a couple minutes, I'll go ahead and pull it up. What is it that you have about it, Brian? Well... Oh man, Brian? Well. Oh, man. What a pro. Well, you brought it up. I know.

I know. I'm sorry. So you have something marked down. I do, by chance, Dusty. Good call. Yeah, man. Come on. So there's a guy. He just goes by the name Gage.

I guess that's his Instagram name or whatever. I know a guy named Gage. I know a guy with gauges. What does that even mean? You know what gauges are? Those holes in your ears? Oh, okay. We just called, yeah.

No, I really didn't. I know several guys with gauges. I saw a video of a guy putting a lock on a guy's ear and running away. Oh, no. Oh, no. I hope it was his friend. I hope it was staged. Here's a good example.

This is one of the official videos. This was a text prompt. See, I did the opposite of Dusty. I took a T out of that. Uh-huh. Beautiful, snowy Tokyo City. I don't think I put T's in. I'll be honest with you.

Okay. All right. You didn't hear that i mean i pity the fool that didn't think this was a team beautiful snowy tokyo i mean this looks like a professional video that's ai video this looks like a video game to me i mean it looks very good but it looks like you know how about this several giant woolly mammoths approaching, treading through a snowy meadow. They're long, woolly fur and even human beings. It generates very well. Look at this. This is a movie trailer.

Now that's really good. Yeah. Featuring the adventures of a 30 year old spaceman wearing a red wool knitted motorcycle helmet. And it's just generates the video in the same way that I remember not long ago when the still image application of this technology came out my mind was blown right now how quickly we've come this far that i mean who knows what this will look like like six months from now let alone six years and the technology that they probably actually have is probably far more advanced than this that That's the spin I wanted. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, probably. I mean, it really is.

It's like, who knows? Mm-hmm. Maybe in the future, every video they show us of the president is just AI. And we actually have no president. Some deep state's just running the whole country. Maybe. Can you imagine something crazy like that? I can.

Yeah. I can. Yeah. I can get there. This is amazing. Like, are those real people that somehow they've given rights to use their image? No, that's an AI-generated person. So that person does not exist.

That's amazing. Now, that one, not so much, but those other close-ups of those guys, I mean... That one's not. That's not. Okay, so it is. That looks like my AI right there. The spaceman guy looked...

So wild. The spaceman guy. Yeah, that looks like that's... You only know it's fake because space is not real. That's the only reason that you know it's fake. Exactly. Yeah, that's what everyone's thinking exactly um anyway there was a guy uh this guy gage whoever that is he has found a way to use his great knowledge to scam mcdonald's out of free milk love. Basically what he does, goes into McDonald's, steals receipts,

which most people, they don't keep the receipt. They throw it in the trash, throw it on the floor, whatever. It's not too hard to get receipts. I guess each receipt has a special, probably a QR code or something where you can download to fill out a survey. He then goes online,

puts the worst answers possible, and then for the comments, I guess he uses ChatGPT to write these terrible reviews of his experience. If it's not good enough, he'll tell ChatGPT to make it even worse. Then McDonald's quickly sends him vouchers for free food because of the bad write-up. He says he's gotten hundreds of vouchers for free food because of the bad write-up. And he says he's gotten hundreds of vouchers for free food. I love that this guy is a complete genius, and yet he's still eating McDonald's.

Yeah. It does seem like he could use that towards something better. Yeah. The scam doesn't work on Whole Foods, okay? You got to do it on McDonald's. But it's a testament that McDonald's cares enough about their customers. They're like, don't stop eating here. Yeah, exactly.

Exactly. Keep coming back. Yeah. Put it in your body and we'll give you $4. But I'm sure that adds up. How do you inconspicuously steal a bunch of receipts out of a trash can? I mean, I've been in some mcdonald's where there's a lot going on in there you could probably get away with it but i'm thinking of like

he's got to go in at an odd hour when the employees are getting screamed at by people and that's when you go in and get the receipts he said off the i think this guy's in london he says off the table or off the till. What would that be? The till? That would be the cash register as the thing is running. That's what I thought. That's what I would think. The till.

That's what they call a cash register? I think it's like the printer. I think that's what it would be called. A till is to prepare land for the raising of crops. We'll try till. It's the drawer in a cash register. Yeah. Okay.

We'll meet British people there. How are you stealing it out of the till, though? I don't know. Maybe, like, it prints out and... I guess I don't know. Because, see, the drawer would be underneath the cash register. Right. So I was thinking it's just the printer.

Maybe he's just swiping it off. He jumps over the counter punches a few people yeah yeah this is actually a story about a violent criminal trying to get free mcdonald's you know at the airport he doesn't say this but at the airport i feel like people really just you take your seat just throw it oh yeah somewhere oh yeah so those would be easier to collect right maybe he goes the airport. This guy's working so hard for McDonald's. It's like just. Well, the point is he's not working that hard, really.

But it's like. It's AI's doing the. But he's trying. He's got to go out and get all these receipts. Yeah, I guess so. That's really the only bottleneck of this. Yeah. And then everything else.

So you love this guy. Big fan of what he's doing. Respect. I like to get it on the ground floor of this guy. See if we can scan some other restaurants. Let's get Panera in there. Cheesecake factory. Well.

I'm trying to eat well. The two restaurants that you and Nate debated over. That's right. I'm trying to get some free Panera. Speaking of the airport, dude, I was thinking about this today. Do you know how much the average American flies per year? If you had to guess. One time.

1.4. And then the person that has flown, you know how many times they've flown per year? If you take an average person who flies, how often they fly? Twice. Yeah, four. Four times a year. So that all to say, this next random about to go on might be boring for most people but it's a big part of my life i can't wait to hear it was

furious this morning at clear oh yeah clear makes my blood boil dude i pay for pre-check now i don't pay a lot it's 70 for five years years, but I'm a part of the system. Clear adds nothing to the security process. Pre-check I think helps. It helps the whole system. It's got a separate lane. Everybody moves through quick. All clear does is it just lets people cut the line. So you didn't speed up the whole thing. You're just charging people to cut the line. And the TSA pre-check line was long this morning, dude. And I'm creeping my way up and I'm about to miss the flight. And then this woman with the smile on her face just gets escorted up to the front of the line.

And I went off, dude. I was furious. The guy in front of me was mad, too. We bonded over it. I just don't understand where they get off. Well, I'm going to say, as a clear subscriber. Oh, God. Yeah, you're the part of the problem.

My complaint is that the Nashville airport clear is slower than pre-check. By the time I go through clear, I could have gone. So I don't even do clear in Nashville. I just use pre-check because it's not even, but it's like, yeah, if you're in that situation, like the Denver airport, clear is like, boom, I'm right through. Do you feel guilty that you're contributing to the end of the world? No, because it is more expensive than TSA. It is expensive, but they're not helping anything. They're not helping anything.

I agree. But you don't care. You just think it's all about you. Well, this is what happened. I'll tell you what happened. I was in San Francisco one time years ago doing Clusterfest and I, they had me do this late show and it ran me a lot longer than I wanted it to. And I was coming to meet you, I think in some other place to do comedy.

I think so. And, and I was like, I think I'm going to miss this flight. And a person from clear approached me and they said hey if you sign up for clear right now you can skip this whole line and i was like what and so i was like okay and then they go and you can cancel you know in a few days if you want you don't even have to pay oh geez so i go okay and then they're like, oh, we just got to do an eye scan. And I'm like, oh, geez. And we just need your fingerprints. And I was like, no. That's how they get you. But I was like, I don't want to miss this flight.

I gave up all this privacy for convenience. And then, you know what? I didn't miss the flight. I don't know that I would have otherwise. It seemed like that would take a while. But it was still faster than that line. I mean, it was pretty rapid. And now I just didn't cancel and it just auto renews. And I'm like, when there's a lot of times when I'm like, oh, this has just made life real easy. I get it though. I mean, I get the individual incentive,

but when you're, you take a step back and you're watching this unfold you're like you guys aren't helping anything no you're just it's it's just i think it's i read an interview with the ceo and the founder of the company and she said the average clear consumer or customer uses it 12 times a year we want people to be using it 12 times a day. Oh, jeez. They want to have clear technology employed everywhere. Stadiums, restaurants, they want everything to work like that. So you're like, that's what you're a part of.

So I hope you feel good about yourself. Well, I just feel like it's all going that way. Minority Report. You guys remember that movie? Yeah, I just watched it recently. Everything was ice cold. You're obsessed with it, dude. Yeah.

Well, I love the director, Michael Dearborn. I didn't mean to. I mean, I feel like I took the podcast in a weird direction just now. I'm just saying I was watching it this morning. Sorry, Brian. I feel it was just really annoying. I thought your rant was going to go a different direction because you're actually, your complaint seemed to be more at the frequent traveler. See, I feel like I'm just encountering people all the time in the airport that never fly.

And it's not fair to them. They're confused. They don't fly a lot. They're like, where's my seat? The average person, 1.4 times a year. They're like, where's my seat? The average person, 1.4 times a year. They're like, where's my seat? I don't know where to put my bag. Right.

But me, I'm like, ready. I know where. I mean, I'm flying. We're jaded. We're broken. We're calloused. We're tired. We're the worst.

We got no sleep. We're dead inside. The night before, we were the star of the show. We were like, look at us. The next morning, we're sleep deprived. I sold 40 tickets last night. I'm a god. And now we're crammed into a plane with people that don't know what they're doing.

Exactly. And it's like, it's frustrating. Because it's like, no, I don't think I'm better than the people, but I do think I'm more experienced and I should get some respect on this. I should be able to cut the line. Yeah. As you hold the hand of a man in a vest and he brings you to the front. Yeah. You got a little smirk on your face as you're doing it of a man in a vest and he brings you to the front. Yeah. You got a little smirk on your face as you're doing it, I'm sure.

I saw. Now, I wasn't on Southwest, so it didn't bother me as much. But yesterday at the airport, I'm flying and there's a guy in a wheelchair. Here we go. I love it. And his whole family, like eight people, get to board the plane with him. Oh, yeah. I'm like, that is completely unnecessary.

That guy and one family member should get to board. The guy pushing him, not the whole extended family. I was like, all of these people get to board? This wasn't even your flight. You were just walking by. No, no. Oh, okay. No, it was my flight.

Okay. But I'm like, I'm group one. You know what I mean? I should be first on this plane. They should be lucky, it was my flight. Okay. But I'm like, I'm group one. You know what I mean? I should be first on this plane. Right. They should be lucky I was on this flight. Here's my travel complaint for the weekend. Let's do it.

And I think you can help me with this, Aaron. I love it. Because I've heard you, Mitch. I was thinking about you this weekend about renting cars. Because you have set up now where you don't even have to go to the counter. Is that correct? Well, I'm platinum on enterprise. And I don't know if that's contingent on your status with them, but you can check in through the app and then just walk right, bypass the counter, walk right to the garage and up to the car.

Yeah. That's great. Because the last few times I've traveled, you get there and I tweeted about this. It's like every car company all lined up. You're like, oh, great. Mine, there's nobody there. Why is everybody in this one line? Because thrifty, dollar, all of them, you got to get in line for budget for that one person. National and Enterprise and Alamo and everybody, too.

They just cram them down to one. You can't go cheap with the rental car. I feel like if you go Enterprise, it's usually pretty fast. If you go budget, it takes a while. I mean, that's my experience. They live up to the name. Because I used to book budget because it was cheaper. And then I was like, I got a spring for Enterprise just so I don't have to stay. I mean, it will be- See, I didn't even know that. It'll be like 45 minutes sometimes at the counter. Some guy.

It was this weekend. Some guy yelling at this lady as she types away because he didn't put his wife name down on the thing. And he's like, you told me it would be this much money. And she's like, I don't know. I just work here and I didn't tell you anything. You've never talked to me. Yeah, it's always the person that had nothing to do with it which is frustrating in itself but anyway yeah the last few times it's been such a long way to the counter totally and this weekend i was like i gotta talk to aaron about this way

to bypass this because this is crazy yeah enterprise is usually pretty good you check it on the app you can go right out there to the garage and i usually don't spend too long in enterprise you rent a lot of cars. I do it pretty much everywhere. Yeah. I like the freedom of it, dude. It's a big difference between me and you. I like freedom.

Even if it comes at, you know, if it's inconvenient, I like freedom. Yeah. You know what I mean? Yeah. I don't like to be tied to a rental car.

Right. Oh, you're not necessarily tied to it. You can kind of go wherever you want and you can always turn it in if you want. But what I would never do is sign my soul away to skip a line or something like that. You know what I mean? I care about freedom and the future of this country and my own guiding principle.

I think you should relinquish your TSA pre. What do you mean? Well, stand with everybody else. I mean, you want to be a man of the people. Stand with them. Just because you have a clear background, not everybody has a clear background check. Some people have made mistakes in their lives. Yeah, I was surprised you could even get it.

Pre-check's different because it's benefiting me, but it does not take away from the general boarding at all. I'm not disrupting them at all. I'm not trying to stay out of the way of these plebes out here. They can have fun over there on that side, right? But what I would never do is walk over and walk right in front of them. The main benefit of the pre-check is that you don't have to take shoes off and you don't have to stand in the x-ray machine. You don't have to take electronics out of your backpack. I don have to stand in the x-ray machine. You don't have to take electronics out of your backpack.

I don't like standing in the x-ray machine. Yeah. And it's also the speed, right? Yeah, speed. Yeah, that's a big part of it. Speed's good too. Exactly. And I'm not achieving any of those things at the expense of someone else.

Well. I'm not. Maybe the airport employee checking you in TSA Pre would be available to help with general boarding if TSA pre didn't exist. It's not my responsibility to schedule the employees at the airport. You know what I mean? But I don't feel like it's not on me hurting anyone, though. We're just moving right past you guys. What?

We're just moving right past you. How is that not hurting me if you're literally cutting me in line well you guys are you know i don't want to just stand around with people that can't get the latest technology you know what i mean you're using a typewriter and i gotta i got a laptop out here and it's not my fault that's fair look i get it if i had clear if i had if i had sold my soul you know in a moment of desperation i'd be up here defending clear too but thank god i stood my ground you know put my foot down but did you guys know that even if you have a 401k for retirement you can still have an IRA. Did you guys know that? I didn't know that.

I did. Okay. 50-50. Robinhood has the only IRA. Hold on. Okay. Okay. Sorry.

I didn't know what was going on. But I would love to hear about Robinhood. Robinhood has the only IRA that gives you... That was so good. You didn't know what was going on, right? Yeah. That was seamless. Yeah.

It has the only IRA that gives you... That was so good, you didn't know what was going on, right? Yeah, that was seamless. Yeah, it has the only RA that gives you a 3% boost on every dollar. I think what they say is the last time this eclipse passed through on this similar path was... The one we remember from a few years ago? A hundred years ago. The one that I remember from a few years ago came from the northwest down through the southeast. Oh, it did.

So this is making an X. Going the other direction. Marks the spot. And then there was a lot of, they say it was, this is just some people. Right. They say that a lot of earthquakes followed some of the biggest earthquakes our country has ever seen. Eclipses. Yeah, it just happened.

So that means Nashville should have gotten an earthquake a few years ago? No, this particular one. Oh, the one from 100 years ago. Yeah, that came on the path that this next one is about to come on. Gotcha. So Cape Girardeau should watch out. I think so.

Maybe the whole country, though. I don't think it's saying just where the X comes. Oh. There's some kind of fault line around the Mississippi River. Well, yeah, that's true. The New Madrid fault? Yeah. I mean, they've been warning about that for a long time.

That's how Real Foot Lake was formed. Earthquakes. The New Madrid fault? Madrid. Yeah. Okay. I'm just saying. Yeah, we're in the path of that.

So, get ready. Okay. Well, I'll keep an eye out for that. I wonder who these people are. Might want to get your IRAs in check. What you drawing over there, Dustin? I don't know. Just some guy. My daughter's been

really dialed in. My daughter's been drawing a lot, and so I've been getting into it. Are you getting better? She's getting better. Okay. You're regressing. I draw about the same I've always drawn. Is this a particular person, or is this just... That's my AI.

That person doesn't exist. I just come up with that person this guy this is a terrifying image to have in your head he's angry he's got a long maybe this guy's coming after the earthquakes maybe let's say palm trees be floating in the air oh yeah did you see this video? I saw this on TikTok. This is what I did this weekend. Okay. Look at this. If you're listening, there's a palm tree floating in the air.

Nothing like this. Look at this. It's just a palm tree branch. Yeah, just a branch. I'm sorry, not a tree. Right in the middle of the air. It's just a palm tree branch. Yeah, just a branch. I'm sorry, not a tree. Right in the middle of the air. It's just floating. It's not attached to wires or anything like that.

Now, what do we know about this video? Wow. You know, I read online what people were saying. Yeah, what's the go-to explanation of this? What are the mainstream responses to this video? I'll be honest with you. I read a lot of comments. Okay.

But for some reason, I didn't read any comments on this. I just thought, that'll be good for the podcast. Well, it is. Yeah, we'll see. What did people say about it? I mean, a couple people said, you can hear the drone going in the video and then people reply,

I think including the guy who shot it said, dude, it's no drone. There's no drone. I don't think there's a drone. I didn't hear a drone. I can hear the wind blowing. What would the drones

like holding that up? Yeah, I think they implied a drone was holding it up somehow. Drones aren't that strong, dude. Yeah, and I don't think this guy's faking it because he's not even saying anything. He's just saying this is weird

looking. If he were like, this means the end of the world is coming. I think you'd be more on board. Well, yeah, but, you know. Is there, what's the implication of this? I don't know. It was just a weird looking thing

that happened. Like Like the wind is blowing in such a way that this tree has flowed. The wind's holding it up, but yet it's not blowing it in any direction. But are there any claims of a supernatural occurrence?

Or is this just like, wow, look how it caught the wind in a weird way? I think it's just like, wow, look how the wind caught this in a weird way. And it must just be the currents that

somehow keep it still. The four great winds come together all at once. Is that from the Bible? I think there is a whole thing about the four great winds. It's from the quiz show. I think. I mean, that is bizarre. That would freak me out if I saw this.

If I was walking down a residential street and I just saw a palm tree floating in the sky. Yeah. I'd film it. I was thinking about ideas for the podcast, but everything that I was thinking of, I was like, I don't know. This would be too weird for, you know, so. Too conspiratorial, you mean? Yeah, or whatever. And people in the comments would get mad and go, hashtag Dump Dusty.

They'll be like, remember when the podcast used to be normal before he came on? Now everything's a conspiracy. Well, they may be onto something there, based on some of your comments. Well, I hate to even bring up this one then, but... I want to hear it. NASA is looking for volunteers for this Mars simulation.

Sign me up. And whether you believe going to Mars is real, Dusty, this is real as far as them looking for volunteers. applicants to participate in its next simulated one-year mars surface mission to help inform the agency's plans for human exploration of the red planet it's scheduled to kick off in spring of 2025 they're looking for a four-person volunteer crew to live and work inside a 1700 square foot 3d printed habitat on nasa's johnson space center in. So you got to just hang out with three other people. And I mean, and then they'll go, oh, they died. They're heroes. Well, how big I'm not good at square footage.

Can you clock square foot? How big is 1700 feet? I can just based on the homes I've lived in. Okay. 1700. I mean, that would be great for me. My first two places I lived that I owned were. Apartments or houses?

Well, one was a house and one was a condo. Okay. They were both about 750 square feet. Okay. Wow. So that sounds great to me. Now, our current house that my wife owned when we got married is bigger than that. But 1,700 square feet would seem like a mansion to me.

I'd sign up just to get some space. Is that like literally? But not with four people, though. Well, you're right. Three people. And depending on who you got, and it's 3D printed, it's like we can't just build it. I don't know. NASA is looking for healthy.

I'm out. Motivated. Dusty's out. U.S. citizens or permanent residents who are non-smokers, 30 to 55 years old. I'm out. Proficient in English. We're all done. For effective communication between crewmates and mission control.

This is interesting. I'd like to help them find the applicants. I'll only go if they let me smoke. You go, look, I'll do the experiments, but I'm trying to live a life. If I go to Mars, I want to have a good time. Yeah, I mean, we make it to Mars, I'm having a cigar. You know what I mean? That's like, I watched in my hotel room this week in the movie Armageddon.

That's the one with Bruce Willis, right? Yeah. And that's a fun Bruce Willis, right? Yeah. And that's a fun movie. Yeah, it is fun. Steve Buscemi, Liv Tyler. There's a lot of big actors. Yeah. Billy Bob Thornton.

Yeah, it's a good one. They're also looking for a master's degree in a STEM field, such as engineering, mathematics, or biological, physical, or computer science from an accredited institution. Oh, they should have led with that one. I know. They sneak that in. By the way, we want you to be a genius.

Well, I'm healthy and motivated. I know how to use Microsoft Word. Yeah, we're looking for some volunteers. We're not going to pay very much, and we hope you're in a lot of debt. Maybe that's true. I don't know. It seems like if you you got that good education, you're not going to be

hanging out for a year doing volunteer work. And I'm curious. I was curious what I was going to pay. But look at this line here. Compensation for participating in the mission is available.

It's like a lot of gigs. Isn't that nice of them? They pass a hat around. Well, we're going to take a love offering when it's done. Do a GoFundMe. Yeah. More information will be provided during the candidate screening process.

So they're not letting you know. I feel like if it were a big money figure, that would be part of this article. Yeah. Right? You get 500 grand to live in a Martian bubble for a year. Listen, it's about the science and not the money. We're doing this for exposure. Do you remember very early on in the podcast, we talked about a scientific study where they

just wanted a guy to lay down for a year. I don't remember that. They wanted to examine the effects of not being vertical. And this guy did it. They paid him a ton of money and just laid down on his back for like months. Oh, I would do that for so little.

I'm sure we made that joke then, but yeah, I think, I think it was like three months and they paid him 90 grand or something like that. And he just laid on his back. That's crazy. That's the opposite of,

uh, opposite of this. How was he doing? We're looking for, we're looking for unhealthy, unmotivated people who've never been to college, yeah this guy this guy did it man that people off like my 600 pound life i mean they're like they're already doing that well yeah i think they wanted to see what it would do to like a healthy body okay yeah i can't remember if it was nasa but it was it was

some some institution they wanted to see how it would affect the organs over time to not be sitting upright. What'd they come up with? They haven't talked about the results yet. This was just about the guy doing it. I don't remember that. That's interesting. Did you see the baseball? You followed Major League Baseball. The guy whose regiment was to stand all day? Yeah, let's talk about that. This is the no sit Nolan, the painful stand all day routine that uh this player endured how do you say that word his last name no endured endured endured i don't know endured went through i look this would be torture this would be torture for me

i have to sit down i could go maybe an hour and I'll be like, I'm out. Let's try this as an experiment between us to see how long we can stand. I mean, you stand for an hour when you're doing comedy. Well, 50 minutes that I have to get off. That's true. And I could walk, which I guess he could do that too. If I'm moving, I can stand longer, but just standing in place. Yeah.

I get so he would say about one o'clock and I don't know what time he got up, but one o'clock in the afternoon, he was in agony, just standing. He got to sit down to eat. It says here, he says only reprieve was for meals. So this is, I'd be curious to hear how the science, what the science of this is, but there's, there's gotta be some kind of health benefits of just standing, standing straight up in general is really bad. It's the new smoking,

but also maybe standing up all day is bad for you too. Yeah. Yeah. No one told him to do this. He did this on his own. The knees bend for a reason, you know? I mean,

I can think of one more reason he'd probably have to sit. Oh, I don't know. I think you could do that standing up. Oh gosh. You're talking about prey? I was talking about after the meal uh well you have a standing desk where i do have a standing desk and i've been dude where i i recommend this to anybody dude anybody that has a desk job where they have to

do stuff at a computer and i don't have a desk job where they have to do stuff at a computer. Now, I don't have a desk job, but I like to do stuff on the computer. And I get a standing desk, get a treadmill, dude. I walked 18 miles the other day. In one day. I got a treadmill. In one day. You walked 18 miles? 18 miles just while editing the clips for the podcast or sending emails.

I got the treadmill at my desk. And I put the Apple Watch on my ankle. And I just go. You walked 18 miles? 18 miles. I have a treadmill and sometimes I'll do two miles. Yeah. And that feels pretty good.

That's 40 minutes. Right. Well, that's being honest and that's not. That's the difference. I have the data to prove this. Yeah, total since you got the treadmill. No, 18 in a day. Wow. And then I did 10 the next day.

So you do 2.6, I think you said? 2.6. It depends on what I'm doing. If I'm just watching TV or something, I'll put it on 3.2 and really get going. So that's what, about eight hours that would take you to? It was six or seven hours, I think. Could you travel with this treadmill? No, no. Too it'd be sweet though i wish i had some i wish i what that's what i want it should come in hotel i want to take more stuff with me yeah dude you used to

take a full computer yeah you say a hot pot too yeah that was when i was driving yeah i take a few things i used to take a desktop right yeah like a whole desktop but like a like a mac desktop all in all in one didn't have yeah it was just the monitor right but it was still you know still a lot yeah it's bulky it's not a laptop you can't email that but at the time yes at the time i didn't have a laptop i couldn't afford a laptop so it was like i had this great desktop and i'd be in a town for you know i'd be there four nights right so now i could watch youtube i could send emails i could do i could edit videos i could do stuff on the road yeah whereas if i didn't take it i couldn't

yeah it's fun dude but get that dude if you're fighting like man i'm sitting down all day try it out dude i had a comedian friend of mine a buddy who i just worked with in montana he's It's fun, dude. But get that. Dude, if you're fighting like, man, I'm sitting down all day. Try it out, dude. I had a comedian friend of mine, a buddy who I just worked with in Montana. He sent me a message. He's like, I was listening. I just bought one. Walked five miles today that I wouldn't have walked otherwise.

Like, dude, hopefully it's going to change a lot of lives, dude. I would spend five hours on one email because I'd be making so many mistakes. I'd just be redoing it i do want to get a standing desk though get a standing desk did i have a fully jarvis loaded standing desk jarvis jarvis is the name is the brand name or fully i think bought jarvis but that's the standing loaded it has yeah fully loaded burke kreischer standing desk But it's got a... It's not fully loaded? It is fully loaded. Okay. I guess I haven't said it out loud before.

But they got programmable heights. So I just press a button and it raises up. And then you're good to go. And if you want to sit down, if you want to dial in, you know, you hit another button and it... Is there any drawers with it? Nah. Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah. I don't roll like that. But can you get that? to dial in you know you hit another button and it's there any drawers with it no no no no no no i don't roll like that but can you get that seems like it's not really fully loaded it's

doesn't have any drawers does he gotta put his pill somewhere yeah it's customizable in a few ways yeah i i didn't get everything on there but you know anyway just i just want to recommend that you didn't go to an office ordered it online now well i found on amazon i had to find a treadmill that had the uh the weight capacity a lot of these a lot of these go hey this would be great to lose weight maximum weight 220 and you're like well those people don't need to lose weight lose some weight to lose more weight exactly yeah i haven't lost enough weight to lose more weight. Exactly. Yeah. I haven't lost enough weight to lose weight yet. That's crazy. But the one I got is like,

Hey dude, we'll take anybody. And I, dude, I'm, I get rolling on that thing. Anyway, just an idea.

I want to throw that out there to the listeners. All right. All right. Let's wrap it up. Well, I'm sure this has been a hot podcast. I feel like we did cook for a while. When did we stop cooking?

We stopped cooking when I went off about clear. That was a misstep, and I'm sorry about that. No, no, no. That was good. Okay. I guess we can do the post-game analysis after the camera stopped. But just a little peek behind the curtain. That's where I think it went off the rails, and I think we brought back i think so yeah thanks man yeah all right dusty you want to i feel like

we just have to go this order as far as we should uh this weekend i'm going to be in indianapolis at helium i think all my shows are close to selling out so we've added a show we've added an early show on saturday so i'm doing three shows on saturday so if you look at that dude sold out sold out sold they're all close to selling out i think because i was like they wanted to add the show and i was like well are all the other shows sold out and they were like well they're very close and i'm like i don't know that we should be adding a show if they're not sold out. But they feel pretty confident in it. Okay.

So we went ahead and added those. And Indianapolis has always been a hot city for me. I've been going there for years and years and years. And I like Indianapolis. So my show's hot. I got a new hour. And I think it's better than my special. It's a hot hour. And I feel good about it. You got a new bio and it's, I think it's better than my special. It's a hot hour.

And I feel good about it. You got a new bio too, I believe. Well, this is the bio I hate. Matter of fact, I do have a new one now, but this one was written for me. This is tough. And I hate it and I want it to disappear, but they never will. Oh man. Once a bio has, it's like out of date.

I don't even know if it has anything about Netflix in there, but like. Yeah. Some stuff you need to take out of this too. Yeah. I know. Youngest comedian to ever perform at the Opry. Yeah. You might have to take that out of your bio.

And I did that in 2019 also. So there's just a lot wrong with the bio. I don't think it mentions netflix at all not the half hour or the full hour that i have uh it has uh a list uh uh comedy central's cluster fest um jimmy kim alive last comic standing nothing about doing the tonight show which i've done four times yeah um i think it's three but uh um and no netflix hour i don't even know that uh helium here is you can take the boy out of the trailer park but you can't take the trailer park i'm not even really doing trailer park jokes anymore i don't even really have trailer park jokes on my netflix

hour no you didn't or in my new hour right uh and uh i don't even know that helium has put anywhere that i have a netflix hour out here so but it's not hurting ticket sales so uh but i wish that that bio would go away people will read it sometimes and if i'm doing a corporate gig yeah they'll begin to read that as your intro. Yeah. And I'll go, Oh no, no, no, no.

Yeah. So I'm going to be at the comedy catch in Chattanooga. All right. February 29th leap day. Great green room. Yeah. Yeah. We keep talking about that. Best green room.

Yeah. My green room is pretty much anywhere past the three rows in the front because I got some space there. It is a great club, though. That's so fun. Yeah. I love the club. Yeah. All weekend?

No, just February 29th, Leap Day. It's so funny. Wheelchair accessible. Oh, I guess that just means. say, why are the ticket prices the same? What day is the 29th? That is Thursday, Leap Day. My joke is they let me come once every four years. Oh, yeah.

I like that. Then the next day, I'm in Hudsonville, Michigan at Fellowship Church. That's right outside Grand Rapids. Jacksonville, Michigan at Fellowship Church. That's right outside Grand Rapids.
