Today's episode of the Nate Land podcast is brought to you by True Nutrition,
Mountain Dew, Bombus, and Shine.
Hello folks and hey bear.
Welcome to the Nate Land podcast.
We're all back. Back at it.
Everybody's pretty different, but Brian's the same. You think he needs changed?
No, not for some time.
It's pretty crazy. I leave for a month. This is Aaron Weber, by the way. We got Mountain Dews on
the, on the desk. Mountain Dew, legit sponsor.
I was blown away with Mountain Dew last week.
Cause I popped in last week and, uh, it was, I was like, good night, dude.
I didn't even know.
Bombas is, I mean, we're like, it's a, it's like we're a TV show.
Yeah.
It's crazy.
Yeah.
It's a real deal, man.
Uh, yeah, it's no joke.
Dusty, thanks for coming in, being part of this.
Uh, I'm pumped to be here.
Yeah.
I'm pumped to be here.
Feels great.
I'm so excited you're back.
Thanks, man.
It's been a long time.
I'm pumped to be back too.
Lots happened.
I have missed you.
Thanks, dude.
I'm excited you're back.
Thank you, thank you.
I had a lot of jokes that bombed
and I thought if Aaron was here,
he'd either laugh out of politeness or just laughing at how bad they were doing the way there'd be a laugh
These guys aren't giving you nothing
Here it's been me and Brian for a long time me and Brian have been running the pod
Did y'all do one with just the two of you? No, we never wish no
I mean they kept that would have been great. That would have been how to keep it going
But we can't bring it in guests. Babysitters basically.
One day the camera cuts on us just Brian in the middle of the table.
Yeah.
Finally.
And I mean everybody watching is like, ah, here we go.
It's going to be like a news.
It'll be like an earthquake or something happened.
And Brian is just like, I'm going to steer this ship in.
Like wolf blitzers.
What's the, uh, election night?
It's like the guy in, uh, oh, that move with John Cusack where the whole world
blows up 2012, there's one guy on the radio that stays.
Yeah.
And it's like the whole world's one.
They're like, come on.
He goes, no.
And he's recording to the last second.
It's Brian.
He goes, just me left.
Well, it's been, he goes, hello folks.
And Hey bear,
very serious, not a fun one. Hello folks. And Hey bear. This is a distraught
podcast, Nate land. Podcast Nate's dead. You can see Dusty's dead. Dusty. Now Dusty. Now Dusty got, Dusty went up early.
We don't know where Dusty's at.
We got two thumps of a tree hump.
We know he's near, he's a, he's a, he's a quarter acre near us,
but we can't find him.
I lost you guys.
I actually don't know what's going on.
Pretty funny.
We're talking about Bates doing the podcast during the apocalypse.
OK. Yes, we are.
As to Dusty. Oh, yeah.
He hit the side of a gutter five times.
Now I'd be long gone.
And if the rapture is real, I'd be out of here.
I don't know about you guys.
But the rapture, we're trying to have a fun time.
Well, you said the apocalypse.
Yeah, but I think the rapture is like, we
all would be gone. Well, we hope you're right. Yes. We'll see. But the rapture is
like, yes, but it's the the part it's just being a little bit funner. Okay.
Because if I say the rapture, are you going to have fun with it? Are you going
to go? No, I'd be gone. So no fun at all. Well, I mean, fun for me. I understand
a lot of fun for me.
For the people that are living and probably listening that's not going to make it.
Well, then it would, you know, be the same if it was just the apocalypse for all of us.
What if you...
The people who wore shorts to church.
Yeah, exactly.
They go, God doesn't care what you wear.
And he goes, well, what do you think now, buddy?
Yeah.
Go into our short section.
Yeah.
Into heaven.
Yeah.
Bottom line is Dusty and I held down the fort and now Dusty's taking a little
break from his podcast.
So will you be willing to fill in on his podcast?
Oh yeah.
On yours?
You and your wife?
Yeah.
Do mine.
No, just, no, just me now.
She already quit too.
Oh, did she really?
Yeah.
Why just, oh, you bid you...
She's quit several times. This is nothing.
She always comes back.
Yeah.
I bet I could get her back.
She probably has a little fresh look, you know?
Like she'll be, yeah, get someone else in there.
Yeah.
Let's change it up.
Talk about something different.
Imagine, I feel like you and your wife's conversations are the same, same, same
podcast, still the same, then get up, same, same, same.
Like there's no, there's just just the only difference is you go hey well
this is the dusty pocket that's the only difference the rest the conversation is
yeah it's about right press record yes keep going and never go save it for the
podcast it's just now that's what we're doing you go we could do it now we'll
say it again we could do it in any time yeah Yeah. I think so. Sometimes my kid comes in. She gets on the podcast. Oh, that's fun. Yeah. That's fun. Talk to her about Paw Patrol and stuff. Yeah. Are you back to collecting leaves? Because I had some fans. Well, leaves have just started to fall. I mean, I'll take them. I don't know that I'm gonna go leaf crazy like last year because my whole plan for the leaves last year didn't really pan
out the way I wanted it to pan out. I'll still take leaves because I got some
other ideas I can use them for but I'm not gonna be raking other people's
yards this year. Okay yeah last year was I went crazy. Your career is a different
place this year too right? Yeah. You can't be out here raking other people's yards's yards. Do you think that's what's hard is if you're a prepper being successful?
Probably hurts a little bit.
Well, you know, I don't know.
You make enough money, you get somebody else to rake the lives.
You know what I mean?
I know, but I'm saying you don't have the, I feel like as a, as a prepper,
I'm not saying, I'm not saying it, but I would think if you're like the guys that
sell a TV show about being preppers, right?
Yeah.
So they're, they're like legit, like way into it.
But then once you sell TV shows, start making some money, I bet they, I bet
if you went over there, they're like, you know, it's a lot of like, Oh, what's the,
you know, like down there's the, you know, like underground thing.
It just got a clothes hanging down there.
It's like a treadmill, old treadmill. Why would he get down there It just got a clothes hanging down there. It's like a old treadmill.
What do you got down there?
Old treadmill, clothes hanging on.
I think if you're not successful,
like the idea of the apocalypse,
no rapture is exciting, right?
Cause you're like, nothing's going on for me.
If the world kind of ends and I'm ready.
I'll be the star of the show all of a sudden.
But if you start being successful,
you're like, well, I kind of want this to keep going.
Yeah, now I'm just the weirdest guy
in the neighborhood right now.
But no one goes to being the most prepared.
They become lazy.
Not lazy, but a little like,
that little extra something's kind of missing
because you're like, eh, you know, I got a TV.
It's a little bit harder than YouTube.
Well, you don't have the passion for it.
Yes. Yeah. Yeah have the passion for it. Yes.
Yeah.
Drive.
Yeah.
So you're kind of, which could be the downside.
That's what's a success.
Yeah.
It makes you less prepared.
I think.
Yeah.
It makes, makes people lazy and then weakness comes in.
Yeah.
You can be not.
Yeah.
Well, it's apocalypse.
Did you be, I know you might you might take a step back in 2025.
Yeah, you dig in the underground tunnel.
You're like, that's two, three stairs.
I can't.
I don't want to go all the way down.
I still feel pretty strong about my, my preparation stuff though.
I feel good about what's going on.
Yeah.
I'm ready to, I'm ready to really build some stuff.
I feel nice.
Yeah.
I think I need a place to go.
Yeah.
I don't have a place to go. Yeah.
I don't have a place to go.
That's step one.
Step one is.
Step two is you start furnishing it, but we'll work on the place.
Where to go.
Yeah.
And how to get there, you know, will you be able to get there in the case of an,
I mean, if it, if it happens, are you going to be able to jump in your car and get there?
You got a hope. Yeah.
Because, well, with electric or gas.
Yeah.
Or roadblocks or who knows?
Yeah.
Chaos out in the streets.
Yeah.
Yeah.
North Carolina, the road's just washed away.
Interstate 40 is gone for a little bit.
So you got to have a helicopter.
Yeah. You need something. Helicopter or maybe a little bit. So you're going to have a helicopter. Yeah.
You need something helicopter or maybe a little boat donkey, something like that.
Yeah.
Donkey would be maybe a fan boat.
Yep.
Yep.
That's what I thought.
Everybody hear you.
Yeah.
But you'll be scooting right on by.
Yeah.
They'll hear you, but it'll be rolling out.
Aaron, I know you're good.
It's good to be back.
I used to be old Walmart.
They used to be Walmart over there.
You go, you know, that's how you tell.
Yeah.
I know you've been excited to tell us about true nutrition.
I have been.
We've been waiting.
We all love it.
Nate got the we way.
Look, Nate got it.
He'll tell you about it.
He got the protein concentrate and loved it.
So I got on there.
I got the same thing.
Uh, I was able to go in, customize it.
Nate got chocolate.
I went with chocolate peanut butter.
I like to mix it up.
You know what I mean?
I'm as bland as Nate is.
That's the best part.
Getting to customize your own protein powder mix support for today's episode.
Obviously comes from true nutrition.
It's no secret that many health supplements contain fillers and even harmful chemicals. That's why I'm excited to talk
about True Nutrition, a company founded on relentlessly sourcing the highest
quality ingredients. Third party tests those ingredients and then first party
tests them on site to further ensure purity. Look, this is a lot of big words.
What I'm trying to tell you, this is good stuff. It knows it can be incredibly
difficult, True Nutrition does, to find the right protein powder to match your body and fitness goals.
We've all got different body and fitness goals.
Look around this table.
So you should customize it to what you got going on.

Take the guesswork out of nutrition with true nutrition.
Now you haven't missed a step on those ad reads.
Man, that felt good, dude.
Oh, that felt real good.
Your first ad read is as a father.
Yeah, that's crazy.
Yeah.
Does it mean something to you now?
Cause now that money's being used for something.
That's true.
Somebody depends on this.
Someone depends on that.
It's not just me out here in the world.
I got somebody dependent on me.
That is a crazy shift when you think about it.
And if you're trying to prepare, you know,
get a bunch of protein, stock up on protein.
There you go.
True nutrition is.
So what I know we have a lot to.
Talk about is it going to just lead into
just start the comments or talk about our weekend if that's OK.
Oh, yeah, sure.
Yeah, we're guess we're hold off on baby and SNL.
But go ahead.
I had a hot weekend. Well, I figured once we off on baby and SNL, but go ahead. I had a hot weekend.
Well, I figured once we get into baby and SNL, it's going to go over a while.
Yeah.
So we do this all the time.
No, no.
Aaron hasn't been on here for six months, but go ahead.
Tell them where you're at.
I had a hot weekend.
I'm into it.
They ask you this though, Evadia, Beaton, Texas.
They've come back to our podcast here, Brian, and look what they're doing.
Yeah.
I didn't even know Aaron was here until the ad read, but.
Uh, I did go to the Vandy game.
If Andy would have beaten Texas, it would be.
Yeah.
I've been today's episode.
Oh, we would not had time to get to.
I'll tell you what it's, it's the episode of when the fact that like, you know, we
lost by three, uh, tough loss, but it was just, it was like a tough
loss.
You can say that.
Yes.
It wasn't like, Oh man, it was just a tough, straight up tough loss.
And uh, I'm excited for the rest of our season.
It was fun.
You know, it's, it's crazy, man.
I've just never seen anything like this.
It just feels different, right?
I mean, you're in the thick, I mean, you're in these games.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
We were, I went to the game, uh, they have this new have this new end zone level. It's really great at Vanderbilt. They're setting it up,
very nice. I told them I wanted, there's, you know, like, you know, like Inter, like the
Virginia Tech, Inner Sandman, when they play Inner Sandman, they walk out. I was like, we need
something like that at Vanity. I was like, do you mind if I just poke around? And they're like,
yeah, just tell us. I don't know if they really want me to or not, but I'm going to, I'm started
thinking on it like, like a tradition, like a good, you've earned a seat
at the table at this point.
Yeah.
Like what's a, what's a good that we could come out, the Nate land theme.
Yeah.
And yeah, the Nate land themed, you know, it's like, what's, you know, a good way
for us to enter the stadium for Van Diena.
We have the walk, you know, cross.
So it's like, you could show that, you know, it's like, you know, we could do something.
Put a couple of guys on horses, something like that.
Something like that.
You wouldn't be thinking outside the box at this point.
That would be fun.
Yeah.
Yeah.
All right. Yeah, something. But it was,
yeah, fun little day. Yeah. Fell out of the top 25. I figured that. I think if we were like 23,
we would have stayed. That's kind of, I mean. I think at 23, we would have stayed. 25, I don't
think. Yeah. I don't really feel you have a choice but to go out. I guess we felt a 26 41 votes.
I mean, that's what I mean.
I even think 24.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And Texas fell one spot.
Yeah.
Uh, I can't believe I'm saying this, but now we go to Auburn where we should win.
Yeah.
Isn't that crazy?
Well, I don't, I mean, I, you know. We should, I know, you're right.
Auburn looked decent this past week.
They did.
Yeah.
All right.
I didn't see how they did, but they lost Western since then.
They've been looking really bad.
Yeah.
Things are down there.
Yeah.
That's open-like of them.
So where are we at this week?
All right.
So, well, I did my Brian Bates and Friends show here.
Dusty came and did that.

Yeah.
Hot show. Hot show. I've done four of them now.
You guys have done every one of them.
So thank you.

You've done two.
So thank you very much.
Boom.
For that.
There's always a Bogartse on there, right?

Um, Stephen Bargartse was on the last one.
No, but I've done two personally.
Yeah.
He's, he's done as much as you guys combined.

Uh, and then Friday night I was in, uh, Lebanon, Pennsylvania at
Lifeway church, shout out to Jesse Rothacker.
You guys know Jesse podcast.
Yes.
He sent me some pics.
He, he picked me up at the Philadelphia airport from the show.
Well, he lifted you in the air.
I said, he sent me some pegs and Aaron gave me some side eye over here. He said, use some pictures of baits at the year. I said he sent me some pegs and Aaron gave me some side eye over here.
He sent you some pictures of Bates at the show.
Yeah, private.
OK, I went to Jesse's house.
You can he runs a reptile show.
So you can only imagine what his house is.
Oh, yeah. Just, you know, just a guana going off your leg
while you're just sitting there.
But he has a seventy five pound python.
Oh, his house.
Just crazy.
Just the yellow.
Is it yellow?
No, no, it's a different, don't worry.
He won't squeeze it a death.
I know.
I said, what do you tell your kids?
And they're like, well, they can't come in here unsupervised.
Yeah.
Oh, okay.
So you got them contained to a room at least
they're in his garage.
And, but he, you know, he opens the cage just like your joke and the thing just
kind of starts
Yeah, it's coming out and just push it. It's just it's common for him. But I was like, yeah
Why but the show was great. Thank you, Jesse
For for hooked me up on that. Yeah
Yeah, dusty. Oh, I did a corporate gig at the Grand Hyatt on Thursday here in Nashville
It's hot bunch of financial guys. I came out go, I'm a bit of a financial guy myself.
I just financed a couch.
Yeah.
And a hot, hot job.
Yeah.
That's a good one.
And yeah, and that was a hot show.
Then I went to Memphis, big Tennessee week for me.
Okay.
And I went to Memphis, Tennessee, Minglewood hall.
10 years ago, I featured for Todd Berry there.
Now I'm headlining the same class.
Hot show. Yeah. Then I went headlining the same place. Hot show.
Yeah.
Then I went to Knoxville, Tennessee.
First time I've been there since I filmed my special
and did the Knoxville Civic Center Auditorium.
Hot show.
Hot show.
And then I hung out with Henry Cho and Alex Velluto
and my feature for the weekend, Zach Townsend.
It was great.
Then I went over to Kodak, Tennessee
to a little bit of a bird sanctuary with,
with Whitney Cummings and Zach Townsend
and a musician named Gale.
And we hung out, looked at some eagles
and I threw a little basketballs to a Raven.
And I saw that we watched these birds
eat a lot of rats that's what they feed them they have rats in a cup and they
just throw little rats out and it's pretty disgusting but a lot of fun
mmm that's a lot just wrapping it up quick for you no I mean that's exciting
so hot Tennessee your tour the easier to drive tour.
Well, it would have been easier to fly if they would make a good
route from Memphis to Knoxville.
Sure.
That's true.
Rainy with a bald, right there.
Where was Whitney at?
She was in Nashville on Saturday.
Okay.
She did TPAC, right?
Yeah.
Bald Eagles are so much bigger than you think they're going to be.
I mean, they are massive.
Huge.
Yeah.
They had an owl out there that a bunch of vultures. I saw a 39-year-old
turkey vulture at the very end here. It's the last pet.
39 years old? 39 years old that thing is. It looks every bit of it. Yeah.
I think I got through 39 Thanksgivings. But this is on Kodak, Tennessee, just
north of Pigeon Forge. Okay. Oh, yeah. It's great.
The hot spot.
Yeah.
You and Whitney really bond over animals.
Don't you?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Birds were into it.
Yeah.
I mean, I just happened to be in Knoxville, so it worked out great for me.
20 minute drive.
I went over to, she was going over there to see them.
Yeah.
She was in Knoxville too.
No, she was going there to see that.
Oh yeah.
Yeah.
That's awesome.
What about you, Aaron? I've been see that. Oh, yeah. Yeah, that's awesome What about you, Aaron?
I've been all over when I really I've been uh, did you make a joke Brian that I went to the Braves game?
Right after my kid was born. I got kind of a nasty message talking about how selfish I was to go I mean, I thought I clearly said I'm sure it was obviously a joke on the podcast
I I have not been I I was at the opposite.
It was a Reds game.
That's right.
I've been to the opposite of a Braves game.
We were, our kid was born September 28th.
We were in the NICU for three weeks.
What's that?
A month ago today.
That's true.
She's now, she's been home for a week now.
So you're missing the first birthday.
Yeah.
Not even a year.
Yeah.
He's, uh, Bates is like, uh, someone's mom that just goes a month ago today.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I get, all right.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You know, you did your first SNL one year ago today.
Well, when you're crazy, that is crazy.
That was a fun one.
No, I liked that one better fun one. You know what? I was just thinking my mom always does, she knows
everybody's. Any day she's like, that's a bubba bubba bubba. Tennessee Kid, six years ago.
Today? Yesterday. Really? Yeah. Well, because of Facebook. You've seen this on
Facebook. Yeah. Yeah. And I keep a journal. Tennessee Kid was six years ago?
Six years ago.
I thought it was longer than that.
I watched it on John Chris tour bus when it came out.
I remember that night.
Six years ago.
Yeah.
It was right before you turned 40?
Yeah.
Didn't it come out on your 40th birthday?
I'm 45.
I know, but didn't it come out on your 40th birthday?
I think so.
Right around then?
Maybe. Yeah. Six years ago. I taped it six years ago. Yeah.
Okay. So then it came out. In March I believe. Yeah. Yeah. So right on my 40th. So I taped it at 39.
Yeah. Okay. I hear it's a great special. Thanks, man.
This guy's got some stuff. Yeah. He's got some jokes. People talk about it a lot. They love that special. Anyway, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry. My wife went to your house on Saturday and she said, Aaron looks exhausted.
It's been a, it's been a good. Thanks, dude. Yeah. It's been a pretty emotionally
confusing three weeks. You know, obviously your kid's born, you're super excited.
And then right away they took her to the NICU
where she was there for three weeks,
hooked up to monitors and beeping and babies crying.
And we basically lived there for three weeks nonstop.
So we got her home though.
We got her home.
She's been home for a week now.
It was obviously terrifying.
The first three weeks she's hooked up to these monitors and you know what her heart rate is at every given second. And then all of
a sudden they go, all right, you're good. It's insane. They let you just walk out with
the kid. Yeah. So she's been home for a week. Feel like it's less nerve wracking now. We're
easing into it, but uh, is her weight up and she's getting there, man. Yeah. It's getting
there. Things are good. Things get not to get super serious right into it, but like your suffering gets put
into perspective pretty quickly in the NICU.
Like we were so lucky in a lot of ways.
We met families that had been there way longer than us that weren't able to hold their kid.
Yeah.
And I saw a family who lost their kid there.
And for whatever reason, we got to leave with our, I remember we got brought there.
My first thought very selfishly was like, what did we do to deserve this?
You have thoughts like that.
And then when we got to leave with her, like I thought the same thing, which is just crazy.
But everybody's doing great now. Mom's doing great.
Baby's doing great.
We're excited.
Things are awesome.
I want to thank everybody.
So many people reached out, especially to my wife.
She wanted me to thank everybody.
People were really great to her
who had their own experiences at the hospital and stuff.
So we're all good.
Now all we got to do is raise a kid.
Yeah.
So we got through that.
And that was the easy part. That's right. So I got to do is raise a kid. Yeah. You know, so, uh, we got through that. That was the easy part.
So I got to see baby olive.
Brian came by the hospital.
To see Aaron in action as a dad doing a great job.
You were in our little FEMA tent.
We got moved all around.
Some rooms are pretty luxurious in there.
Some rooms are you're walled off with a shower curtain.
I try to stay out of your way, but I'm glad.
I'm glad a giant baby came down there to get more in the way.
I didn't even ask.
He's in a, they're sorry about sir.
I think you're in the wrong building.
Hey buddy.
She's cute.
Yeah.
It's, uh, it was, it's been pretty wild, man.
So things seem to calm down a little bit and
We don't know the full big picture about her health yet. Like it's possible
She might have some you know some challenges getting back up to speed but we can do it. We want to do it
Oh, and it's gonna be great. It already is great. So thank you. It will be the strongest kid ever. Yeah
That's the wonderful thing. Yeah for sure. Yeah for sure. And what is great. So thank you. It will be the strongest kid ever. Yeah. That's the wonderful thing. Yeah, for
sure. Yeah, for sure. And what is she going as for Halloween?
We got Lucy got our little lion costume that she's just now like
a borderline. She was born early. And she was small. So
she's just now getting into newborn sizes. So Lucy's pretty
excited putting all these costumes and stuff on. Yeah, But it's great, man. It's awesome.
Yeah. I mean, how great is it? Newborn babies.
It's the best. It's the best.
Yeah. You gotta be easy with that beard.
That's true. Yeah. I didn't think about that.
Oh, you didn't?
That's why she's in the NICU.
Yeah.
What did we do to deserve this?
No, she, I don't, I think they, you know, they know how to do it. I would, I would, I've rubbed on Harper's face, but I'm joking.
Anyway, it is wild that they go, they walk you down to make sure you have a car seat.
And then they just let you go.
You're just like driving away from the hospital for the first time with a baby.
We're like, Oh man, we got a baby.
I know.
It's crazy.
The thing is, you're not buying it there.
You brought it in there.
That's true.
So they are, if you, I just thought of this right now, cause I, you think that too,
but then in their mentality, they're like, because I, you think that too, but then in
their mentality, they're like, we're shocked you came in here.
Yeah.
We're just would like you to get out of here.
Well, I don't want them to have any responsibility over my kid.
As far as I'm concerned, you shouldn't even be able to tell me I need a car seat, but
yeah.
Did you turn your car seat around as soon as you left?
No, no.
I did.
You know, I think they should be able to
tell your kid how to vote.
Is that, is that too much though? You know, the weird thing is we looked it up,
like legally at any given moment,
I could have just grabbed my kid and ran out of that hospital.
Yeah.
Like legally, I'm allowed to do that.
Now I'd probably get a visit
from Child Protective Services pretty quickly.
You would?
If you did, that doesn't sound like you're legally allowed to live. I would have got a visit from Child Protective Services pretty quickly. You would? If you did, that doesn't
sound like you're legally allowed to live. I would have got a visit from them, but I'm saying it
would have been insane for me to do that obviously, but legally I was allowed to do that. But you know
when you see someone get out of like when they're they rip all their stuff off their chest and they
leave a hospital. Yeah. The only thing I guess you could do you could do that. You could. Yeah. You know what I was thinking? I guess you could do, you could do that. You could just grab your baby.
So they brought the car seat up.
I had to put, put the baby in the car seat.
She had to sit there for 90 minutes to pass the car seat test.
Wow.
They had all the monitors up.
So they're like, we got to get her in the car seat to make sure that the position of
it, like her heart rate won't drop or anything like that.
Her breathing rate is going to stay the same.
At like-
Was this in the car?
No, this is in our hospital room.
I picture they got to go, they got to go, the doctor goes, where's your car?
He's got the baby and a couple things.
You're like, y'all got to sit out in that car for 90 minutes.
Nobody came out to the car.
They were just like, it was last Saturday. we got in there like nine and they're like,
all right, and around noon, you can probably, you can leave.
I guess if the car seats in the hospital, they know you have it.
Yeah. So they made her sit, she passed it. And then, uh, I mean, I was, some of these families,
they're like, they'll get ready to leave and then they fail that car seat test and have to stay in
there. You still got to lock it into the base though, once you get down to your car.
Yeah, that's true. But the technology is pretty good now. It and have to stay in there. You still gotta lock it into the base though, once you get down to your car. Yeah. That's true.
But the technology is pretty good now.
It just kinda pops in there.
Yeah. Yeah.
I think they just want, they're just like,
we gotta make sure you have it.
How'd you drive home?
Where you?
Terrified the whole time that,
not that I would get in a wreck,
but that the car seat was strangling.
Oh yeah. You know what I mean?
I had no idea.
The kid can't communicate.
Yeah. At all. Did you kid can't communicate. Yeah.
Just up at Chipotle?
Yeah. Have you been through a drive-through with the baby in the back?
No.
No? You haven't?
No. That baby has not left the house since we got her.
I know. Was she on the drive home?
On the drive from now, dude. I was trying to get her home, man.
Yeah. You didn't go, I'm getting nervous. Let's take a break.
Let me get a burrito.
Go to Chipotle. I'll leave the AC on. break. Let me get a burrito. I'll leave the AC Yeah, we get a burrito bowl. I just do a drive-through. Yeah, you know go to Culver's
Something a little classier. Yeah Culver's at least yeah go to the cold
Yeah, Culver's drive-through you gotta have a nice car get to that drive-through. Yeah, they don't let anybody through there
You gotta go through martyr to get that
to get Culver's
There's one by my house a Culver's is right there. Mount Juliet. I've only ate there once
I didn't really know about it frozen custard not ice cream. It's like a different different thing. Yeah
Anyway, it sounds a little bit. Uh, it's been a yeah, dude. I'm pretty tired. Yeah, I'm pretty tired
How's the sleep schedule? We're got, I mean, kids gotta be fed every three hours.
So it's like, we're trying to figure out a routine and I'm, and you know, I
don't get back on the road really full time till like January.
So we've got a few months to, to, you know, for Lucy to take
over all the responsibilities.
You know, I'm just kidding.
You know what would help you late at night?
Mountain Dew.
That's crazy.
Brian, you just interrupted such a serious moment to transition me to a Mountain Dew
ad.
That's what I love about Nate Land right there.
You know what we all need to get more of?
You should drink some Mountain Dew.
Get off your butt to get into some action.
And it's fun to do that some Mountain Dew. Get off your butt to get into some action. And it's fun to do that with Mountain Dew, the drink.
With bold flavors and a refreshing citrus kick.
You know about that kick, Dusty.
Mountain Dew will get you off the sofa and have you feel like you're charging up the
side of an actual mountain.
A mountain where the weather's perfect.
Your friends are ready to hang and a full day of epic games are happening.
Can you imagine?
I can't yeah. Yeah, check out all these flavors. Original Baja Blast. I've got Baja Blast right here. Code Red,
Voltage. My personal favorite is the Baja Blast. I remember this used to only be a Taco Bell. Wow.
And look at look at the the timeline we live in now. You can get Baja Blast
out of a can, wherever you can get Mountain Dew. When we go on tour, especially with Nate, we love to play games.
If we're performing in an arena, there's always a basketball goal around.
Those games get pretty serious, pretty fast.
Having a refreshing Mountain Dew afterwards is always the best part.
Look how excited Dusty got to drink that Mountain Dew.
He spilled it all over his lap.
The Mountain is calling.
You should answer, grab your friends, grab an ice cold Mountain Dew, wherever refreshing beverages are sold, and do the dew.
All right.
I'm sorry for calling you out, Brian. That was fun to read. We did need to get to that Mountain Dew.
Yeah, we did.
That's exciting stuff. That's exciting stuff, man. Sorry about that.
I think Tristan's going to get something for me.
Okay.
Everything's fine, guys. Okay. It's not my first time for me. Okay. So everything's fine guys.
Okay.
It's not my first time.
Thank you.
It's not the first time I've spilled something on myself.
It is really good.
Anyway, have you done, so when was the last time you went on stage?
I did the open mic last week and I had a corporate Thursday night.
Oh, okay.
And then I've got a corporate tonight.
So I'm.
Yeah. Yeah. You're still raking in the okay. And then I've got a corporate tonight. So I'm, yeah.
You're still raking in the doubt. How did it feel, uh, doing the corporate?
First 15 minutes felt great.
Yeah.
And then I started to feel a little fatigue.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's what's crazy.
There is a fatigue too.
Like when you don't go up and you can feel yourself, it's almost like mentally it's,
you know, it's like, it's not like you're like standing and talking as to, but it's,
it's having to remain focused that long is, uh, you feel yourself go like, man,
I'm having to power through this.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I felt it.
I felt that I hadn't gone up and that was the longest I hadn't done stand up
since I started. I looked it up. That was the longest I'd gone. Even COVID, we were back at it. I felt that I hadn't gone up. That was the longest I hadn't done stand up since I started.
I looked it up.
That was the longest I'd gone.
Even COVID, we were back at it pretty quick.
Did you have a panic moment?
What do you mean?
I don't know.
I feel like he'd not do stand up for a while.
You can be up there and like have like a quick moment
of like, gosh, I'm gonna be up here another 40 minutes.
And you have a little quick panic moment
and then you just go get back in gear.
Luckily that was such a a that gig was great.
Yeah, awesome. That was a good like first show back.
You know, I've done some corporates where it's like they're not going
well in the beginning and I got 55 more minutes.
You have a little little like rush of anxiety real fast.
You're like, no, you're nervous about doing a set that short.
Yeah. Yeah. I don't even get time to stretch out. You're like, I'm not even gonna get into this. Yeah. Yeah. Well, we are, you know,
look at that. Everybody's got a baby. Yeah, man. Everybody's got a girl. Yeah. Yeah. I have a son
too. That's true. Yeah. Yeah. That's true. Yeah. That is kind of crazy.
Everybody's a good girl.
Started this podcast.
I was the only one with a child.
That's crazy.
Yeah. That's crazy, man.
I don't even think Dustin had a kid.
And I joined with a kid, but-
You joined with a kid, but I'm not the oldest
and I was the only one with the-
Yeah.
I started this podcast at 40.
How old was I?
42, probably.
Yeah.
Three. Yeah. We've been doing it for
years. So yeah. Yeah. You've played 41. Yeah. Crazy. I had a daughter at 39 and
then the next week I turned 40. I got after it earlier than y'all. Yeah. I
announced it on my 50th birthday. All right. Yeah. Last time he went to go easy. It's good to see you. He gets a little nervous. Yeah. A little jumpy. Yeah. Yeah. You're not going to last time you went to go easy.
Yeah. It's good to see you.
Chiropractor. He gets a little nervous.
Yeah. A little jumpy.
Yeah. How was SNL?
I watched it. Watch it at the hospital.
Oh, yeah. It's pretty awesome.
One of our nurses went to your high school.
OK. And was like dropped your name.
Yeah. Because she said, what do you all do?
I said, I'm my age.
And she was like this guy.
Now she is younger, like 20 years old, but she's
like this famous comedian, Nate Barghetti went to my high school.
And I was like, I heard that guy stinks.
Yeah.
She's like, he's all right.
But, uh, yeah, we watched, yeah, we watched us and know that.
That was awesome.
Yeah.
We got summit hospital.
Vanderbilt.
Vanderbilt.
Ooh.
Yeah, dude.
Yeah.
It's a real deal.
Where the money goes.
Uh, I was born at Baptist Hospital. Yeah. Or you were born two clicks over from where Jesus was born. Two clicks!
Two clicks outside of Bethlehem. There was no room in the inn for Jesus because I'd take it up a whole floor.
Because baits grew. Yeah. Well, you gotta the whole floor. Because. Bates grew.
Yeah.
Well, you got to get there early.
You got to get there early.
I mean, Joseph knew about the census.
Why is he waiting last minute?
I was born at McFarland hospital in Lebanon.
It's no longer there.
I know that's a shocker, but crumble, man.
Your daughter was almost born in Lebanon, right?
That's true.
But then she had some complications at the end.
They're like, we might need to put her in a real hospital.
So did it at Vanderbilt.
They said that about me too.
Yeah.
We don't stay here.
Which is like a lot of things,
I don't know if you remember,
like the day I did the special,
like Lucy was at the hospital.
Because of that, they were like,
we should have the baby at Vanderbilt.
Which thank God that happened.
Cause then it would have had to have been an ambulance ride
from Lebanon to Vanderbilt downtown. So a lot of like chips fell into place before all of this.
Right. Yeah. Everything, everything worked out as good as it could have.
You were going in at 11 30 PM. Yeah. I texted Lucy, 11 45. How's my ticket count?
45. How's my ticket count? Just your response. That was a great joke. I hear nothing the next day. Um, cause it was what?
Three days before you guys delivered. Yeah. The next day I
still hear that. And I'm like, Oh man, that joke's really
bombing. I hope everything's okay. And then, yeah, I think
we're all nervous for the three of us were texting. Hey, you
heard anything from Aaron? And so we were all so relieved when we heard from you. Yeah. Thanks man. It was, it was, yeah, I think we were all a little nervous for it. The three of us were texting, hey, you heard anything from Aaron? And so we were all so relieved when we heard from you.
Yeah, thanks man.
It was, you ended up doing a C-section,
which is just, it was all, birth is wild.
It's wild.
Yeah, I did, you know, as the guy, you feel so helpless.
You're just like, there's nothing you can do
and you're just standing around.
So like, I remember Lucy was, we were
in like the thick of labor, like we're pushing, right? And I had nothing, I don't know what
to say to Lucy. So I just go, I like glean in, I go, hey, I'm with you the whole time.
And she looks at me and goes, that's not moving the needle for me at all. Right. That's the least you
had to expect. That's all I had. I'll just stand here. Yeah.
That's just in case you thought I was leaving early. Yeah. She
goes, it'd be insane if you left. Yeah. Yeah. Obviously
you're going to be here. All right. Well, I wanted to say
it out loud. I will be here the whole time. Sometimes it's good
to, you know, yeah, it is, uh,
you know, well, yeah, you can't be like, all right, go get them.
Yeah.
There's nothing.
It's like a spot.
You're doing great.
Like it wait, like you're spotting someone at the, wait at the gym.
Yes.
Come on.
Two more, let's go.
You can do it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's, uh, yeah, you just kind of go, yeah. You're like, I'm here.
Yeah, it's crazy. You need some ice cubes? I'll run and get you some ice cubes. It's unbelievable
what's happened. I think it's that. It's like a lot of like, this is, this is insane what's
happened. Yeah, yeah. This is, you know, yeah, it's, it's a miracle. Yeah, it really is. It really is.
Yeah, it's awesome. Mm-hmm. Well, we're is. Really is. It's awesome.
Well, we're glad you're back.
Should we start with the comments?
I'm kidding.
Where have you been?
Start with you guys' comments.
Tell us about S&L.
I wanna hear them.
We got comments and lead into it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah, I think we wanted to hear that.
We wanted the news to you, to get the baby.
You will be gone next week.
I'm back for good now. So he really likes Mountain Dew.
Yeah, I was trying to watch.
He really drank it.
Yeah.
Yeah. No juice.
I don't think anyone doubts that anybody in this podcast would drink a Mountain Dew.
No, no. I was just talking about that. We were talking about that with politicians,
No, I was just talking about that. We were talking about that with politicians,
because they're like, they do stuff sometimes like, or anybody, even actors or anybody that could be
high up, whatever. And they just can't ever say anything. Like if you go to McDonald's, you're like, what's the number one? And they're like, they don't know how to do it. And you're
like, you know, some people are like, where have you grown up?
Yeah. Yeah.
Have you not like been around just basic stuff?
Well, a lot of the politicians have really grown up
in like these wealthy kind of thing.
And they- Yeah, I guess.
But it's okay if they did, just don't pretend like you didn't.
Don't pretend like you're all folksy.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That's what's annoying.
That's what would be, yeah.
But I'm always blown away that sometimes I feel like they're, you're like, you don't know. Like, there's no, they
don't know the language. And they don't really live in our
reality. Yeah, yeah. It's a completely different. We're a
little science experiments for them. Yeah. They go, give them
this. See what that does to them. Yeah. That's what the,
that's what we are to them. Alright. Let them get it out a
little bit. They go, hey. Walk the dog. We got them get it out a little bit. They go, walk the dog.
We got a walk dog.
We go eat some of that.
Yeah. Eat some of that.
Look at him. Look at him.
Look at him. He loves it.
Oh, yeah. Look at him.
Get back inside.
They're so sick. They're so sick.
They're all so sick. Look at them.
All right. Start with you guys comments.
KB, I miss Nate, Brian, Aaron and Dusty when they aren't there but the
vibe carries the show. The Joe Rogan experience wouldn't work without Joe
but Nate's vision and selection of co-host is a recipe for success for
success but can we at least get a picture of Holly on the set. Yeah. I don't think
Holly's been into the studio right? No. You don't take your dog's places around like people?
No.
Okay.
No.
Okay.
Okay, babe.
Right there.
I would like, you know, it'd be fun to bring a dog down.
You don't go as a family, sit on a patio, bring the dog, eat lunch somewhere?
Mm-mm.
You're not one of those families.
No.
I mean, I think you feel like you have to have a small dog.
If you have a small dog, I feel like you can do it.
That doesn't stop people, man.
No, I know.
I agree.
Yeah.
People bring the dogs out every... I think if you're going to a restaurant, you're like, we're gonna go eat outside.
Sometimes, like, you know, it's like, all right, maybe we'll go bring a dog like that.
That's what you meant, right?
Yeah, yeah. On a patio.
Well, I think sometimes that's... But it's like, sometimes people are gonna get ice cream and the point of it is you bring the dog and you sit out as, you know...
Yeah, yeah.
But yes, people are... they bring the dog. Yeah.
Uh, there you go. That was a good one that led right into SNL.
Uh, we're going to ease into it.
Holly on the set of SNL or Tyler Flink.
The past few weeks confirmed a theory of mine.
The show isn't the same without Aaron.
He's the glue guy that keeps the team together.
The glue guy.
I think it's just glue.
Yeah.
It's the glue.
You're not the glue that keeps it together.
You're the guy that puts the glue on.
That's right.
The guy that gives it to me.
I'll sell the glue.
The glue guy.
Out of us, you're where glue would come from.
Where the glue, doesn't glue would come from.
Where did glue, doesn't it glue come from horses?
The old glue guy.
You're wearing a white sweater too. That's true.
Hey, give him a red hat.
Yeah.
Like a little orange cone.
You could do that as that'd be a good Halloween.
Yeah.
Dress up like Elmer. You're already the shape of a glue bottle. that'd be a good Halloween. Yeah. Dress up a Yelmer.
You're already the shape of a clue.
Yeah.
Put an orange hat on.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's just a hat.
Yeah.
Uh, are y'all dressing up for Halloween?
Do you guys have costumes?
Uh, I'll be, uh, this year I'll be a Vanderbilt football coach.
Uh, as I always am our Titans kid coach out to see on which one's warm.
You just dress like you're going to Kroger.
I dress as if I'm always dressed.
We won't, uh, we don't, it was never, I would draw, we dressed up
when Harper was little and go out.
Like now Harper's she got her friends.
They take off and you know, we sit at the, we stay in the cul-de-sac
and we just kind of sit there and.
You know, we, we meet so they don't come all
the way up in this cul-de-sac. We put a table at the end of the cul-de-sac and everybody
sits, we all sit out there and then they come up and yeah.
You don't want them in your cul-de-sac.
Don't come knocking on our door.
Scratching up my cars.
We all sit there. Yeah. Well, the first year we did do it, but it is like you're, you know,
you kind of end up that way.
We ended up walking around. We're going to walk around a little bit. Like it's far. We got a really good neighborhood for it.
Yeah. Yeah. It's very fun. I love Holland.
You dressing up, Brian?
We did truck or treat yesterday with Eleanor.
Hmm. Is that where you go rummaging through people's trunks and see what they have?
That's what the church pretends to celebrate Halloween.
Is that you?
Yes, trunk or treat guys.
You follow old ladies back to the car from the grocery store and ma'am, ma'am.
We were the only ones doing it.
Well, I'm sorry I mentioned that.
What did you dress up? Did you dress up, I'm sorry. I mentioned that.
What'd you dress up?
Did you dress up?
I didn't.
Okay.
But you dress your baby up, dress your kid up.
Yeah.
Sexy nurse.
So yeah, you win as a worried father.
Well, that is true.
Yeah.
No, she was a pirate.
She was very cute.
And that's fun.
We had a great time.
Dusty Halloween is what you make of it.
I mean, you know, yeah, I'll be praying that, you know, you guys get raptured out. Do kids dress up at all or they don't?
No, we don't. They don't even know about Halloween. Yeah
That's great that when like it is crazy thing you be like kid you like then have to know about yeah
Yeah, they get treats all the time. Yeah. Yeah, they do get kids. Yeah until they inevitably find out that it exists
Yeah, you're tricking them.
Why didn't I, do you ever think about that?
Yeah.
Why did you do that?
And I go, well, because we don't, you know, worship ghouls and goblins and we don't dress
up like that.
That would be the first day Dusty fights his son.
Yeah.
Because if you can wrestle me, you can, yeah. You can dress up whatever you want to be. You can go son. Yeah. Because if you can wrestle me you can. Yeah. You can pin me. You can go to Halloween. Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah, go out. Go. I hope you get enough candy to live the rest of your life off of.
That's fine. John McDonald. Oh McDonald. Is that? John McDonald. John McDonald. Oh McDonald is that John McDonald. I know I don't agree with
Dusty's conspiracy and viewpoints but I also stayed at the True by Hilton in
Springfield Missouri and inexplicably inexplicably could not sleep at all. Now
I'm rethinking my stance on Dusty. That's all I'm saying guys everybody
everybody is like oh oh no, no,
he doesn't know what he's talking about.
But all it takes is a couple of little things
and then you're like,
yeah, yeah, I'm into that.
I think it's like, it could be like a blue light,
it could be it's too modern, too like,
you just, there's some kind of feel to it
where it's hard to really get some sleep.
Get comfortable in there.
All the commenters agree with you.
Yeah, yeah, there's a darkness in there. Mm-hmm John McDonald. That was my first joke
Thank you John by the way. Thank you John. About the song Old McDonald
Had a farm. It's the past tense. What happened to that farm? Oh, yeah
I thought that was good stuff. Yeah, what happened to his farm? I don't know. And why are we singing about it?
Bingo was his name. What? Oh,
McDonald had a farm. Yeah, and then they start listing off everything he had that he lost. That's two different things. Oh, and Bingo was his name. Yeah, once a dog name. Oh, yeah, it's something like that. What is it? Oh, he had a horse. E-I-E-O. He had it, he had it. With a nay-nay here and a nay-nay there.
Here a nay, there a nay.
Everywhere a nay-nay.
He lost, I mean, we're losing family farms by the week.
Well, that is true.
And that's what happened.
But it could be when they wrote this song,
that guy would be gone.
Maybe it is about one guy.
Maybe he died.
A guy, okay.
So the song's about a person that's like,
yeah, he's no longer here.
It's all past tense. Maybe the government wrote the song right after they took his farm.
Yeah. Yeah. There we go. There you go. That's where you teach your daughter.
Yeah. I like that. That's a great, that's probably what happened.
Renee Learbag.
Learbag. I wonder if you really, Learbag. I don't know if you really hang on that bag part.
Yeah, hit the bag.
Rene Learbag. I like the name. Learbig? I like that last name.
Sounds like a bag you take on an airplane.
Even if you say Learbig, yeah, even if you say Learbig, she has to go Lear bag. She has to say it like that.
I recently had my second baby and when the anesthesiologist came in to give me the dreaded
epidural, I immediately asked him to hold on while I could put my earbuds in so I could
tune into the Nate Land podcast. When my delivery doctor got wined, got wind, I was like,
wine, damn, wine. That's a sentence that when I said wind, I go, well, she doesn't
know how to finish this sentence. I blamed her. Yeah. Not me. Well, Learbag, you know,
come on. Yeah. When my delivery doctor got wind that I'm a Nate Land fan, we bonded. In fact, when he pulled my baby into the world after 20 hours of labor and
emergency selection, he yelled, hello folks, which made me laugh through my tears. Look at that.
That's really cool. That's very cool. Did you do that? Say hey bear? Did you give this a nice
hey bear when the baby was there? Maybe any one of these people should have been focused in on what
was going on instead of listening to the podcast and they might have 20 hours.
How many episodes?
I bet it was pretty dusty episodes.
Isn't like an epic girl too.
They would be like, we don't need you to move at all.
Yeah.
They're shooting it into your spine.
Maybe it's like the podcast is not that funny.
Yeah.
It was like, this is when I'm the most serious.
Go ahead. I have no emotions when I listen to this.
Showing this is after Dusty was asked to be on. I think there's fentanyl in there in the
epidural. Yeah, probably. Maybe. I heard that. Something like Maybe. Opioids. Amazing how quickly it works.
It's something like that, yeah.
Yeah, Hannah did one on there first.
Did you leave the, you have to leave the room.
So they were like, we're doing a seat,
they were like, we can't tell you to do a C-section,
but you know, we should probably do it.
But they go,
so I go, we go,
Wink, wink, wink, wink.
Let's do it.
As soon as I said, let's do it, they're like, thank God.
Okay, that's the right, like we need,
you've made no progress in two and a half hours.
No, Lucy was, yeah.
In two and a half hours.
Y'all gave the, you made no progress in 30 minutes.
So let's.
It was three hours of pushing and then they're finally like,
let's do it.
It's getting nowhere.
And I talked to her, they got her out of the room.
Then I'm just standing in a room alone for like 15 minutes.
Then they came and got me.
Did they think you were pregnant.
Was there a moment where they were not looking up? They just were looking down. Babies coming.
They walked in and they go, which one?
Yeah. You never know.
You never know now.
They go, that's true.
They go, we're Vanderbilt.
That's what doctors walking rooms down. They go, yeah.
Who's pregnant? We don't want to assume anything They go, yeah, who's pregnant?
We don't want to assume anything.
Yeah.
Who's pregnant?
They, uh, that's the most common surgery in America.
C-section is what they said.
Did they ask you if you wanted to watch it?
They didn't give me a choice.
I would have turned it down if I, so I'm behind the curtain with her.
So they gave me a choice and I turned it down.
Oh yeah.
I don't know why I would not want to see that.
Especially cause she's awake.
Like she's conscious the whole time.
I'm not trying to see.
Yeah, it's crazy.
Yeah.
You know, then you know all her secrets.
Peel back the onion.

On Late Night with Seth Meyers, Nate mentioned a sketch that had to be cut for the first
time he did the show, but he hoped would make it this time.
I was wondering if it did
and which one it was. They were all great. I could watch Water Slide and George Washington
on repeat.
It was Coach Allen. The one I talked about on Seth Meyers was Coach Allen and it didn't
make it to, it was like a pitch. I don't
remember if he even got written the first time when I did it, but I loved the idea of it. And
Coach Allen was the last sketch that we did. The only thing that was, we were a little bit,
if I had to redo my set on SNL, if I could have done it differently. It's funny, you start seeing like the monologue.
The monologue is not, as a standup,
it's all about the monologue.
And now like this one I've learned like,
oh, I wish I wouldn't have done any of the extra virgin
olive oil and like some of that stuff,
and I would have just told the Door Dash story.
If I could go back now, I would have just told
that Door Dash story.
Because then even time-wise, I would have just told that door to that story. Because then even time wise, it would have worked perfectly where we could have done Coach Allen.
Coach Allen was like, Coach Allen was done great, but it was a little sped up.
Like we were, it was like kind of like, you know, do it with purpose.
You know, it wasn't like there's not, there wasn't a ton of, we didn't know if we were going to do it.
Which I still, I mean, I loved, I thought it's very funny to have a coach just
one in $20 for just but it's we didn't know if we wanted if we were even like I
was like didn't know if I was getting ready to dress for the good nights or
we were like gonna go do the coach Allen I was hoping we tried and we were able
to do the coach Allen but yeah that that's the one that I was like that was
very funny that I wanted to do and the water slide was water slide was one they
said they tried to do it Michael Longfellow wrote it he was the one
standing next to me as an EMT and it was a stand-up bit of his yeah
originally yeah yeah and so they he they, I think they tried to do it a couple of years ago and it's just a, it is a delicate one.
Cause it's like someone's dad.
So you have to, uh, you know, you gotta be like, well, how do you ride that line and make it funny?
Yeah.
But it was one that you're like, everybody wanted that to one to go.
We all were like, man.
I mean, when I went up to, when we went to Lauren's office and we're kind of
after the dress rehearsal and going to the, uh, and we're picking what's
going to be on the live show, you know, he's looking at you and I'm like, kind
of, you know, we're all kind of going over and I'm just going like, I kind
of have a water slide because don't worry water slides in. I was like, you know, we're all kind of going over it. I'm just going like, I kind of have a water slide. He goes, don't worry, water slides in.
I was like, oh, okay.
Because it was like every, like we all knew like, that's one, it's like, it just has to be,
it's such a funny idea.
But if it's not done right, it can be mean, it can be not fun, it can be a lot of things.
So, fortunately that one, we were able to figure out how to do it in
a way that was fun. Um, but yeah, coach Allen was the one that I was glad that that was
back in there. Uh, didn't you, I think I heard you say on fly the wall podcast, it was like
12 56 and it's one more sketch and the good nights. Yeah. They, one more session of the
nights it's, so you didn't know until then whether you're gonna do it?
You're knowin' it as like, I mean, so I guess it's,
was there a sketch, Coldplay, maybe Coldplay was playing,
and then it was.
I think it was the, what's his name,
I just draw a blank, the digital short.
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, it was the digital short,
and then we were sitting there waiting to be the lonely Island song.
And then, so we were sitting there waiting, like, you know, what am I wearing?
Am I getting what I'm wearing to good nights on, or am I putting this, uh,
costume playing a coach?
Uh, and so we're just like, you just kind of sit there and you wait until it's.
You just wait and you're like, I don't know.
I don't know. And they go, all right, Coach Allen, Coach Allen.
So I started getting more Coach Allen ready just because I think it was a little bit more to put on.
Or, you know, it wasn't that much more to put on, but it was like, you just had everything ready and then you're, you know, we're able to go do it.
I think if there was, if I didn't have, if I had too big of a costume change I don't we couldn't have done it but because it was just that was it easier to get fitted this time now since your second time
Yeah, cuz I just have your sizes and stuff. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, everything was kind of like yeah. Yeah, I guess so. Yeah, everything was like
Pretty much exact. Mm-hmm
Yeah, this yeah, it was all this time was, uh, yeah, it was the second time. I mean, I mean, I just keep going comments and then, yeah, once you tell us about bombas, uh,
bombas. Uh, I like bombas. I have bombas. Uh, fall is here and everyone's getting back from
vacation, headed back to school.
You know what that means?
It's time to get back in Bambas.
The amazingly comfortable socks, tees, and underwear that give back with every purchase.
I've been buying Bambas for a while, like way before this when they were an ad.
They're soft, they fit great.
The Maroonowool socks socks like walking on pillows.
Bama's is not just socks.
They offer underwear and more, which they, I don't believe used to when I first started,
but now they do.
They have the best socks for fall to start you off on the right foot.
They're so comfortable.
They even got a new sweat wicking sock to keep you energized for those fall workouts or just running after the kids as they head back to school.
It seems small. Of course, the best thing about Bombas is that for every item you
purchase, they donate one to someone experiencing housing insecurity.
It seems small, but it adds up. In fact, with the help of Bombas loyalists all
over the world, they've now donated over 140 million essential clothing items to people who need them.
That's a whole lot of good. I love like that kind of giving where it's, you know, like it's not on the person.
It's like we're just just buy the sock and we'll take care of the rest. We take care of the rest.
Yeah, that's the kind of giving I like where it's not you're not asking something else. You're not making it complicated.
It's a very simplistic way.
No guilt trip at the register.
Yeah.
Hunter, you can try Bombus risk-free because they have a hundred percent happiness guarantee.

There we go.
Now with the George Washington sketch, were you nervous about repeating it?
Yes.
Such a classic sketch.
Yeah.
I was, I mean at first I was like I
don't know when they first brought it up they they already had the idea written
Streeter and Mikey and I was like I don't know I was like I don't know if I
want to do it my buddy Shaq he was like it's the only thing he said he goes don't
do another George Washington and so then I was thinking about that I was like I
don't know if I want to try to top it.
And then when we read, they had one. And then when we read it, when I read it, I like, I got a different vision of it. And I was like, oh, we can do it again. Because it's not, it's,
the good thing about the first one is it wasn't, it's not about the, what George Washington is
talking about. It's kind of George Washington. Like that's the fun part is the George Washington character with his men. Like the jokes are funny, which
adds to it, but the George Washington is like kind of like a fun thing. And so then when
I read the second one, I was like, oh, this is like, I was like, yeah, we could do this
again. And this does feel very different. And so I thought it was great. I thought it
was very different. I thought it was fun. I thought it was very different. I thought
it was fun. And then it was like, yeah, it did great. And I think they even haven't,
you know, I think they got ideas for other ones.
It was fun watching it because now you're in on the joke as a viewer. You understand
the format. I was saying nobody knows with you. I just felt it coming. So it was fun.
People applauded when it first started.
Yeah, when it first started, you got a big applause.
Yeah, saying nobody knows.
It's, you know, I mean, that's what a character is.
It feels like a real character.
Like, and so, you know, it wasn't the formula,
which is the good thing.
It's like, if their formula is so great, which would add
everything to it, but it wouldn't have been able to work a second time if it wasn't for just,
they made it very different. It felt different. Those guys are just so good. As we're doing this
Christmas special, they're doing that with me, December 19th, CBS. And like they're just,
they're writing sketches and they're writing sketches.
And this was very funny sketches. We already pre-taped some of them, but it's just very funny.
And like they're just really great. And for, I mean, for me, they're great at everything.
But I mean, they are, I got your voice. They got my voice. Yeah. Like, I mean,
it is, it is great. Brian sent me these. Have you seen that this has become a pretty widespread
meme all across Twitter? This is like a new format for a joke. They got a picture of you
and George Washington. This is the Durham Bulls posted one. We'll call it the world
series because teams from around the world participate, sir. Actually, it's teams from
just one country, except there's sometimes a Canadian team.
That's funny.
And then, yeah, like the Raleigh Airport posted it.
Oh, wow.
JJ Watt just posted one.
Oh, really?
Yeah, like a couple hours ago.
Oh, really?
Right here.
Wow.
Yeah, it's cool.
It's become a popular meme format.
Yeah.
His is not very funny, to be honest with you.
Isn't that what we call running faster? But isn't football a rough sport sir? Very.
I think that's right.
But in this case too high flag too light. I think I'm reading them but it very. In this case too high
flag too low flag too late flag.
So if they time it perfectly they can hit an in the midsection
depends. They do it softly, maybe too hard, flag.
It's a good joke he's putting out to the other defensive guys.
I get it.
And how about this, what is a catch?
Nobody knows.
What is a catch?
Nobody knows.
That's great.
What is a catch?
Nobody knows.
Yeah.
You don't like it as a fellow.
Do you think he made it farther than you and you're upset about that in football?
Do I think JJ Watt made it farther than me?
Yeah.
I'd say it's a toss up, but I think,
were you the JJ Watt of Hendersonville?
Were you close?
No, I was in the conversation.
Could you be JJ Watt in the 40?
Couldn't be me in the 40.
How old is he now? He's, he's old, old. He's an old manatt in the 40? Couldn't beat me in the 40. How old is he now?
He's old, old, he's an old man.
I don't think he's that much older than me though.
I think he'd still beat you.
Of course he would.
I'm talking about how much in the future.
Of course he would.
How much in the future would he?
Yeah.
I could maybe beat him if he's 80 and I'm 68.
He has had some injuries.
Yeah.
Yeah, I still like his chances though.
Holla-fingin' athlete.
We're trying to find it.
We're putting the best of all time.
Yeah.
Yeah, he could probably still be playing in the NFL.
Yeah.
Yeah, and comedy's not his thing,
but I like what he's doing here.
Yeah.
Football's out of control now.
What do you mean?
I don't even watch it now.
The NFL.
Yeah, so many great games yesterday.
Yeah, but.
You get Red Zone.
It's like, it's crazy how all the games are good sometimes. Mm-hmm. Well, if you're watching Red Zone, you're like, you're always seeing the NFL. Yeah. So many great games yesterday. Yeah. But you get red zone. It's like it's crazy how all the games are
good sometimes. Mm hmm. Well, if you're watching red zone,
you're like, you're like, you're always seeing the key. You're
always seeing the good stuff. Yeah. Why don't you go sit in
the thick of it with the rest of us? Yeah. And watch all the
nonsense. You're over there watching the fun part of the
game. I watched every snap of Notre Dame Navy, dude. Man,
Notre Dame. College is still good. Yeah, college is unbelievable. If it wasn't for that one screw-up. They'd be what top three?
Yeah, probably that one lost NIU shut down those service academies dude the military
We got to put them in their place because y'all are the
Captains kind of like is that what is looked at Notre Dame? Y'all are the generals. Do they come
from Notre Dame? No, they come from West Point and the Naval Academy. You know? What is, yeah, so what
is Notre Dame? Y'all are the, that's where the Pope, y'all are the ones that get in the way of the military. That's right, yeah.
That's where they pick the Pope. Oh yeah, y'all do the Pope stuff. Mm-hmm. Uh, Warner McDonnell.
Nate, when you get back, please tell us what it was like hanging out with Coldplay.
Uh, it was great.
Uh, I am now two for two on both musical guests.
Dave Grohl and, uh, Chris Martin.
Uh, said, they both told me, separately, they both said, they both told me separately, they both said, when I first met you, I thought
this episode is going to be terrible.
They both said that.
And then when I saw you, I was like, they were like, you're my favorite.
And then you were like, have you listened to your music lately?
I listen to Coldplay all the time.
Yeah, I love Coldplay.
He used to walk out to Coldplay.
Yeah.
That's very funny.
Chris Martin said, I saw your first episode.
I thought this was going to be the last.
No, no.
He meant, and it was the same thing because it is.
I think when you meet me, you're like, man, this is not going to be great.
It's going to be this.
Yeah.
You know, and so you're not like a fun, you know, and then you're like, yeah,
well I'm saving it all for saving it up for all out there.
I bring the heat when the heat needs to be brought.
And we were all yellow.
Yeah.
Uh, yeah, he was that I talked about Seth Meyers too, cause he told me after we
did the first time we met, we were doing, he was that I talked about Seth Meyers too because he told me after we did the first time we met weird
He's very very nice
First time we met like super we talked after at the after party for something
He was just like a very like inch like just a very really really nice person and like kind of
Be like man. You did so good and blah whatever he wanted me to come out
He's like because are they coming to Tennessee Tennessee or something? I guess when they come here, they're doing Bridgestone, I think, or not Bridgestone.
Yeah. It was like, they were like, do you want, uh, he was like, should come out and do like open.
I was like, yeah, I go, absolutely not. I go, that would be, it would be great. I go, it would be
terrible. No one, everybody wants to see you. Like it's just not the environment for a 15
minute set. Extra virgin olive oil, oil, oil, oil. Yeah, it's not, well it's like too, like no one's even
there to see. Like it's just not a good, you know, musicians tend to think that why don't you just
come on up and do this and you go, cause it's, it, we're, we don't do the same thing. You know, I could, you could go up, it would need to be like,
I go up with someone else to introduce you or say, it'd have to be something.
Uh, and you're like, also all the people at your show are depressed. I'm trying to bring
laughter to people. Is that true? I don't know.
I think Coldplay's sad.
Coldplay's got some inspirational stuff.
I only listen to it.
I thought they were a happy band.
They got some sad stuff.
Okay.
Oh, I think everything's happy.
Well, the way I listen to it, it's all happy.
Yeah.
So it was, yeah, they were all, before, first day we met, then he goes, he goes,
do you need anything?
He goes, hey, if you need stuff for your voice,
he goes, we have everything that you'd ever need for your voice.
And I was like, is my voice bad?
And he's like, no, I'm just saying if you need.
So then all week I'm like, do I need stuff?
Like, he heard my voice and he was like, who, you know, cause you're
always worried that your voice.
Yeah, cough you do sometimes.
Maybe you thought like, oh, he's coming down with something.
Yeah.
You're like, no, that's just how I am.
Yeah.
You go home.
Actually make a living off of just talking.
You guys both have a good non-smoker's cough.
You don't know what I do, Dusty.
I keep forgetting you're here.
Yeah.
He just piped in and say something funny.
Sorry.
That's what I'm trying to do.
Sorry about that, man.
Reg Griffin, helping non-golfer out here was Brady Noel based on anyone in particular.
It was not based on anyone in particular.
Some people thought it was me.
Shout out to Reg.
Reg Griffin.
Yeah.
Super fan, man.
Yeah, love Reg.
That guy's come to a lot of our shows.
He's the best.
Yeah, no, it was just a, that was another one.
They sent it to me and I was like,
I just always get nervous when someone sends,
it was a Streeter and Mike,
when someone comes up with a sports one or a golf one,
I'm like, I always think no one's gonna know golf golf like, you know, like it's not gonna be but that one that went around
Look at that. That's for the next comment. It's for the next comments. Oh, uh that one went around that one
The maid it's like I mean I had people the golf course just be like watch out for Eagles, you know
So that'll be a joke you'll hear
the rest of your life yeah covering up the Nike logo that was all that was very
fun you called yeah really yeah that one was great
D hugs I was a volunteer the Des Moines principal charity classic in June 2007
it's a PGA tournaments sponsored that raises money for local children
charities part of the annual event was a two- day pro-am on third hole Rob Lowe.
Obliterated a tiny goldfinch bird in flight.
Dropped it right out of the air.
The goldfinch is our state bird.
Rob actually held the dead bird for the photo I took below.
Wow.
That's crazy.
That's amazing.
So that really, so then I guess it was based off
Rob Lowe, I guess so. Yeah, look at that. Yeah, what if he asked him that I'd be like you remember that he's like
Do it a lot forget it happens all the time. Yeah
It's a real thing seems real proud in a way though to be holding that bird. Yeah, Rob Lowe seems like a nice guy Monica
Rericks
Sounds like John. It's John wick
John wicks wife. Yeah
She put the X she still goes by the wicks. She goes last spelled a little different. He goes back
I'm gonna eat everybody you're still getting you know, like they got divorced and she goes well
And this is how she spelled her name
He goes no you guys spelled different
You can't be John wick anymore. What's your maiden name? We're ricks. He goes. Well, that's the same thing Monica
That's what John because that's basically the same thing
She was married to John wick. Yeah. Yeah, do you get it? Yeah, I get it
I feel like John wicks wife was killed though in the show and it's like, yeah, that's the truth. But the fun, I was trying to
be fun. I just feel like the guy was like, made fun, making fun of John Wick's wife and then John
Wick went AWOL. Well, this was the one before. Not AWOL but went insane. He was married before that.
I don't even want to be making fun of a fictional John Wick. Yeah. You know what I mean?
I don't even want to be making fun of a fictional John wits. Yeah, you know what I mean? Uh,
Guys Monica, I'm a paramedic
Your SNL skit with the waterslide dead person made me and my colleagues laugh so hard last year We did a cardiac arrest at the top of the water slide
Your SNL skit was exactly what we were thinking when we got to the top for the record
We did not send him down the water slide. We carrying him down all on the hundreds of steps
About that. Yeah, I wonder yeah, I mean that's gotta be a tough cardiac arrest. That
means they got it or they did not get it? No. Oh, you see, you know, like this. I took it he didn't
make it. He didn't make it. We did a cardiac arrest. Some reason I read that is like that was a
positive. Like that's the positive way to do it. We
got it we did a cardiac arrest you're like oh that's great and then we did a cardiac
you'd be like oh I guess he could have right? He had a heart attack but they carried him
out. I feel like yeah. I think if you got a weak heart I don't think the first thing
they're gonna do is shove you down. Yeah if he dies send you down. I think it'd be more
inappropriate then. If he lives carry him. Yeah he dies, it's like. But at the same
time, the guy had a heart attack going up the steps. Let him enjoy the slide. Maybe
get his heart going again. Yeah. I mean, he's like, no, I had a heart attack coming up here.
At least let me do the slide. Yeah. Let me chime in aboutime. Once I became a

On Seth Meyers, Nate revealed he is writing a book. I feel a bit sad to have learned about it through a different avenue.
As you know, I'm a long-time listener and I do love when we find out things first and get that
insider info. Yeah, I just don't think I was here. That's how I learned about it.
Oh yeah? Seth Meyers. There you go. That's how I learned about it. Yeah. All right, I'll tell you
this, the insider, it's because you don't know when you're going to announce this
stuff and so I've been working on it. There's been a lot of stuff. So, it's not like, you know, I'm just like
kind of going forward and trying to, I'm just trying to work, trying to get everything done.
So, I don't think to be like, oh, like, and then it was, I wasn't even really thinking we were going
to be announcing the book, but then we just had so much press. And then with SNL, it's like a lot of stuff going on.
It was kind of just like, all right, let's kind of put
everything out.
Like, let's start it.
Like, announce, you know, kind of announce everything.
And so that's when the book was announced.
It's, yeah, I'm excited.
Big dumb eyes.
Eyes.
Eyes.
Is it a thriller, romance novel?
It's a little bit of everything. A little bit of sit back. No, it's yeah, it's kind of like, you know, it's stories, you know, which are really not make it that much of that was in stand up. If there is any stand up stories in trying to think there would have been. It's there, you know, it's a different, maybe it's, it's more detailed, but it's, it's, it's a lot of different stories, you know, it's a different, maybe it's more detailed, but it's a lot of different
stories about my car, the first car I had, like just talking about that.
Very funny, working with a ghost rider.
It's pretty fun.
Can't even see him.
Can't see him.
I don't know if you've been calling a ghost rider now.
Well, he's here right now.
It's a demon rider.
He's here right now. Or you know why? Because you can't, you're not supposed to say can call him a ghostwriter now. Well, he's here right now. It's a demon writer. He's here right now.
Are you not a why?
Because you can't, are you not supposed to say you work with ghostwriters?
I think definitionally ghostwriters don't get credit for it.
I mean, you're not saying his name, I know, or her name.
Chris Farah.
Okay.
I don't know.
I guess.
You're the ghostwriter.
Yeah.
Yeah, are you not supposed to say it? No, I don't think there's any way. You're the ghostwriter. Yeah.
Yeah.
Are you not supposed to say it?
No, I don't think there's no way.
Here's the thing.
You could never write a book if you didn't have a, I mean, it's impossible.
I have so much, I'm just too busy.
There's not a world.
I'm having trouble.
It's all my stories.
It's just, you talk to him and
then we just kind of go through it and talk and I tell stories it's yeah he
came on the road to me like and then they kind of puts it in form and then I
then I go back through the chapter and I kind of put everything exactly how I
would say you're writing a book but it's I mean if it wasn't for them like I
don't think people think you sat down at a typewriter and wrote all this out I
think I would have always thought I think I would have always thought that. Really? I think I would have always just assumed,
well if you think someone, you would just think if someone wrote a book I would
have thought, yeah, maybe I wouldn't have thought about it.
Which is maybe how it should be. But I mean, they don't, they're not
writing the book. It's like you're writing the book. It's the stories.
Yes. But it's, yeah, getting it in any kind of a readable shape. I mean, it's, yeah, it would be-
If you wanted to have any punctuation whatsoever, it needs to run through the ghost, right?
Yeah, if you don't want to read the longest run-on story, sentence, just go, put a period in here somewhere, and you go, just take a breath.
But it's, yeah, so it's coming along. It's great. We, yeah, it's moving. It's, yeah, it'll be fun.
Do you know when it's coming out?
I believe that the, I don't know when I can say. I think it'll be like, you know, next year. May of next year. That's a little insider info. I don't think I can say that.
So don't Chris Farrah. May of next year. Everybody be cool about that. Do not say anything else.
Remember when Mr. Peter had a bite?
I did that one time, by the way. I said something and then we had to tell Abby and then we go, you gotta take that out.
I think when I said my Netflix special, I said I did like a, hey, this was between us. And then I did get a call. They go, seriously, you gotta take that out.
Then I go, okay. So I do try to sneak them out when I can. So maybe you don't hear that.
So I think we've talked about that since.
Oh yeah. Christmas Eve.
And it's called?
Your Friend Nate Barghetti.
Name?
I like the title.
Yeah, it's good, right?
Yeah, it is.
From the time you met Tiger Woods.
Yes.
Yeah.
It's all back to Tiger Woods.
Yeah.
This was, it's all of them are just, this one's more about Wayne Gretzky.
Who I did just meet was a very nice guy.
But it was, yeah.
Now it was this one I was trying to really kind of coming up with the title and I like
it to be a kind of a theme of the, not necessarily about the joke, but it's just kind of the
vibe of what it is.
And yeah, this one kind of came up with just like as a letter like
your friend Ney Barghatsi. It's awesome this one looks it looks great. Shot in an
arena and it but it feels I mean you know it just it looks awesome it's it's
it does feel very big but I think it's, but they shot it in a
way that it's still this intimate feeling and it just, yeah, it's, it's fun.
I'm excited for it to come out. Shot it in April. I've always wanted, they were
gonna maybe put it out in July but we got it out in, in the big Christmas Eve. I
always wanted my specials to be out around Thanksgiving and Christmas
because I thought just a lot of families together
and it'd be a good time for a special,
for me to put a special out.
And so this was the first one where we got to kind of do that.
And so we've got to hold onto it.
And so yeah, there's going to be a lot of Nate,
I apologize.
And they're already, you know,
it's going to be a lot.
It's already been a lot.
If Santa Claus is late this year,
he might've been watching Nate's special.
Yeah. Yeah. That's a good point. That is, hopefully he was. Hopefully he's not late to is late this year he might have been watching Nate special yeah yeah that's a good point that is he's late was hopefully he's not late to
your house this year yeah you know why yeah yeah yeah you'd like Santa Claus
yeah yeah yeah big fan yeah you're right it feels like you're drunk yeah yeah I
love a good BNE you know yeah does it not feel like because I feel like we've
this has not been a this is a lot because me and Aaron got back and then obviously been a lot of me.
So you and Bates have had to sit back on this episode.
Your vibe is like kind of, Leah, like you've just been drinking wine over there and you just jumped in.
Yeah, I'm just jumping in, you know?
I like it. It's coming off great.
Yeah, I'm letting you guys, you know, roll with it.
The fans are excited. I mean, you guys are back.
Well, I was going to say earlier.
They really missed you guys.
Mr. Peterman hired Elaine to be his ghost writer. Yeah. She had to buy stories from
Kramer. Oh yeah. Dusty's kind of our Kramer. So I could buy stories. Yeah. You go write
a book. You probably would write a book. Maybe. I feel like there's something. Yeah. If you
retire from comedy. I honestly don't know either. If you're really wondering, I don't
know what Dusty's doing in his life.
No one does Dusty.
No one does.
He's going to pop up.
That's good.
That's intentional.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Jamison Working.
I liked that last night.
I'm working.
I bet when twerking came around, it was like tough.
Yeah.
His name is Jamison T. Working.
Yeah.
If his middle name is Thomas, Jamison Thomas, I mean, I bet he had to get rid of
that real fast.
I gotta drop the T.
Honestly, I think just watching Nate record his own audio book could be a podcast on its
own.
Oh yeah.
I am doing my own audio book.
It's one of those where they tell you, like, yeah, but you can do, because you can still
say some stuff kind of different or this and you're like you
know where you want to go just tell me what I'm supposed to do yeah yeah I
think it's like I'll be reading it so yeah yeah I mean it's gonna be like a
month off on the calendar mmm yeah yeah books 40 pages long we already started
it and wrote it we're just trying to get through the, what's that? Big dumb eyes. And they go, demise? I go, no, no, no, no, no. Dumb eyes. Big dumb eyes. Big dumb eyes. Leanne Hamlin, wonder if Nate is still on a strict diet.
I recently lost 25 pounds, eating in a calorie deficit.
And I have to give a huge shout out to the Flay-O-Fish.
And has anyone tried the chicken Big Mac?
I think I'm a fan.
I've not tried the chicken Big Mac, but I would like to.
Yeah, good.
That is a good shout out.
I don't understand what happened in this comment.
Well, she goes from how I've lost 25 pounds eating in a calorie
deficit to loving filet of fish and a chicken Big Mac.
I think she ate a filet of fish.
She would just eat the sandwich because when you're in,
you know, you like, you could have that.
Is that one sandwich is 700 calories?
Yeah, 700 calories.
So you have that.
And that's all you get.
You get that, that's it for the whole day. Maybe a protein bar later in the day or something.
And that's under a thousand calories.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But you're just calories you're choosing.
You're choosing that for your calories.
That looks like onion rings.
I thought it was like an onion ring sandwich.
Yeah, it does a little bit.
I definitely do need to try it.
It looks awesome.
Yeah.
How many calories is the Flay of Fish?
Uh, probably. I think it's 350, 400. I've never had a filet of fish. Well, you
should do that now. Yeah. You got a new, you got a baby,
dude. 380. Oh, you can have four or five. Yeah, look at the
glue on that thing. You gotta have a filet of fish. I thought
you told me during Lent that's what y'all ate. Why don't you
save it and then that'll be you and your daughter's first
McDonald's together. Yeah. Yeahet-O-Fish together.
Yeah.
And you only eat it with her.
The glue guy.
And she's like, you only eat it with me?
And then he goes, I promise, you go, dad, or don't promise, I promise I'll only eat
it with you.
And then you're, and then you have to drive by in a different car.
Because it's hard to not eat them.
Yeah. Maybe I have had them hard to not eat them. Yeah.
You know what I mean?
Maybe I have had them during Lent.
Maybe.
Yeah.
I can't remember.
During Lent.
It's very hard to keep count, huh?
Keep track of everything that goes in there.
During Lent, I'm going to give up burgers.
So I'll swap to the filet-o-fet.
No, Lent is no meat on Fridays.
Yeah.
So that's why people would eat fish.
Fish counts?
Fish is not meat. Yeah. Yeah. So that's why people would eat fish. Fish counts? Fish is not meat.
Yeah, we've had that discussion.
Yeah.
It's a vegetable, right?
Something with a P, right?
Yeah.
Pescetarian.
I don't, I'm not, I mean.
Yeah.
Well, yeah.
Most of the world considers it not meat.
So, it's protein, but it's not.
Where are they getting that definition from though?
Capital T tradition.
Poop.
Yeah.
Yeah, cause I just think it's like, you know,
the meat is muscles, right?
No, now you want to get scientific about what it is?
When you eat an animal, the meat's the muscles, right?
You don't feel any gut, just difference between fish and like a yeah
But I do I feel difference between chicken and beef too
That's a good point for whatever reason I never eat a turkey and dumplings for whatever reason we've carved out fish
And we go you're allowed to have that okay on Friday. I feel like when they were you know they're probably were like
Meat and then someone did they go oh, yeah. You know what I forgot to say?
Fish though. And they go, well, just.
Nobody will exploit that loophole for 2000 years. Yeah.
Already done it. Uh, Anita Herbert.
Hey bear. Hey bear. Hey bear. Apologies. I need a hey bear.
I need a hey bear. Yeah. I need a hey bear. I need a hey bear. Yeah, Anita. Hey bear

Yeah, just a regular car.
Where are they at, you think? Look at those leaves.
I'd probably get a trunk or treat if I had to guess.
I'll take those leaves.
Maybe they'd get to, yeah.
Yeah, I think they're set up for a trunk or treat.
I think you open those curtains right there and there's candy behind it.
Do you think his hair is white enough?
Yeah, I hope I'm not that white.
I don't think it's that as that white, but for the, I'm kidding,
but that's what people see.
