difference in last year's best of but that's percentage wise you know that's what it should
make sense so oh it's added i took some stuff out it gets harder every year because you can't just

and then you were like, ah, let's get out of it.
I mean, it was like 2010 or something.
I don't know.
But now we're doing it again.
COVID has forced me into a podcast because I can't do anything.
So we're doing it here.
We're in Nashville, Tennessee.

Soar. Get in here. Do you have to say the last name, or you just go Soar, and he goes here?
Yeah, I don't think you need to be any more specific.
Soar.
He just sits there, and the teacher's like, uh. Which one?
Sigorb.
Oh.
Thought it was the other Soar.
I play your podcast while working, illustrating on my computer,
sometimes I spend large amounts of time without saving my progress
because I forget to do so
and then my computer
crashes
and I lose all my work
now I click save
every time I hear Nate
say unbelievable
or every time he roasts
bland bread
I haven't lost
a single piece of work
ever since
that's gotta be frustrating
to
I mean
everybody knows
not saving something
golly
all the time
when I've written out shows like,
what's your way of my hat?
Nate Bargetti show.
From the Feld,
we send a bunch of these hats to Nigeria.
Isn't that where they send things that don't go good?
President McCain hats, too.
Atlanta Falcons, Super Bowl,
and then they lost to the Patriots.
But yeah, you type something out.
I mean, you're just in the groove of doing it,
and then it just goes away.
And then the next time is never as good.
That's the gist of it.
And you're like, it's not that good.
Yeah, well, I lost it.
Miriam Gregory.
I've been a fan of the podcast since day one.
You think that's right?
These names all feel made up.
Miriam Gregory.
It feels like almost we were short on comments.
And then.
So Brian went in. And Boat Ramp went in.
And then just said.
Just took.
Soar Sigour.... Sor Sigorm.
Sor Sigorm.
Miriam Gregory.
Oh, that's the worst name I've ever heard.
Oh, man.
That's a real name.
I don't think he's going to turn around, by the way.
Sor is different.
Maybe Soray?
Next one's Soda. seven which is these are all
just george costanza names that he came up with source to go oh it's beautiful it is yeah sore
i got a good idea what that guy looks like uh i feel like you can you can picture a sore you can
picture him in your head you're like i
come on i feel like i've never i don't know what i don't know what they look like but i think i
could pick oh right if you want if you said there's there's 100 people standing in the crowd
one of them's named sore i'd be like i feel pretty good i could figure out who he is if you lined up
dr khan source and me miriam gregory i could tell you which one was sore i'll tell you that much would you
is sore male or female sore feels like it's gender neutral if it's so if it's so ray yeah
i'm gonna ray would be so a lovely lady uh huh what you know you don't think Sorey's a...
These are all...
I don't know.
These are our fans, Aaron, that you're laughing at.
Sorry.
That's the worst thing I've ever heard.
Well, it's not if it's Sorey Segorb.
Sorey Segorb.
Sorey Segorb.
Like a Ukrainian ballet dancer or something.
Well, they could be big fans. Sorey Segorb doesn Sorey Segorb. Sorey Segorb. Like a Ukrainian ballet dancer or something. Well, they could be big fans.
Sorey Segorb doesn't sound as bad.
That's what I'm saying.
That sounds like a ballet dancer from Eastern Europe.
Sorey.
Sorey Segorb.
That actually is a beautiful name now.
And I'm going to name my next daughter that.
We don't have another daughter.
Sorey Bargetzi?
Yeah, Sorey Bargetzi.
I feel like if I find some little girl sitting out on the side of the road
and she lives with us, I feel like that's how you get a Soray in your family.
They're not born into that family.
You find them and they're put with that family.
Turler.
That's the guy's name. T-U-R-R-L-E-R. Turler. Turler. That's the guy's name.
T-U-R-R-L-E-R.
Turler.
Think that's his real name?
I don't know.
I don't.
You don't?
Aaron, how do you not think that that guy's...
I know we have a history of colorful names on the podcast,
but Turler.
The Turler family?
I bet its name is...
The Ler family.
The Ler family?
I think his name is Tyler, and he's being funny.
Tur-Lurr.
Oh, Tyler.
Tyler Lurr.
That's what I think.
All right, you're going with Tyler.
I go with his name is actually Tur-Lurr, and he has to live with it.
This podcast is officially too dumb for me.
Goodbye, folks.
We had a good run.
I guess we'll never know. I guess we'll never know.
I guess we'll never know.
He's never even going to hear his comment being read.
Yeah.
Turler, he's out.
Too dumb.
What does he want it to be?
I don't know, right?
Yeah, go get the TED Talks podcast.
Yeah, I mean, there's other podcasts.
That would be like if you're watching the titans play and you
go it's just too much football this is really why do you not watch the titans it's a lot of football
why don't they throw in some other stuff you're like you know what they should they should throw
in you know i was talking to brian we we had a clip on your facebook go kind of viral from like
the second episode of the podcast about talking millions billions trillions of dollars has like
two million views and a lot of them have no idea what the podcast is so they're most of the comments
are just like these guys are morons yeah they think it's like a math podcast well i mean turler
knows what the podcast is and he thinks we're more turler made it 23 episodes before he's like
he gave us a fair shot yeah he goes this think this is too much. Yeah, he goes, this is, this is.
I always love the idea of someone, it's like they're resigning.
Like leaving a comment.
Yeah.
He goes, he didn't even give us a two-week notice.
I'm out.
He just goes, like, it's so funny to think, like,
you think he's at home and he's talking to his wife, his roommate,
and he just goes, I can't listen to this podcast anymore.
And they're like, oh, it's cool, so you go stop listening to it.
I'll probably let them know.
And then I'm going to
stop listening to it.
What are you going to do for that?
You go just unsubscribe.
I'm probably going to
somehow let these guys know
that I don't think they're good.
And then I'm going to back out.
You know what I mean?
But I think they should know that the Lerr is out.
The Lerr family.
Parting shot.
The Lerr family is out.
What's your greatest?
I really don't have one.
What could you?
All right, so I thought about that.
I mean, the only thing I could possibly think of is I play baseball
and basketball, and there's me as a basketball player there in junior high.
Wow.
Yeah.
Yeah, look at that.
Why don't they get colored cameras?
And there was one game.
I mean, I was terrible.
I was always terrible.
I never scored.
But there was one game I hit a 10-foot jump shot.
Yeah.
Legit 10-foot jump shot.
So then we go down the other team.
Come back down, leave the other ball on me.
I shoot again.
The guy on the other team tipped the ball like when I shot it,
but somehow it made it go in the hoop.
Yeah.
My coach didn't see this apparently, so he yells,
Brian's hot, give him the ball, which I've never heard in my life.
He doesn't know that the only reason
that ball went in
is because
another guy helped it
so then we go down
then we come back down
and they're like
give Brian the ball
which I've never had before
they throw it to me
I shoot it
it goes over the backboard
it was one of those
makeshift concession stands
over there
where the parents run
and it bounced like
over into them
where the dad had to
throw it back in
that's my greatest moment.
Your greatest moment is a heat check.
Yeah, a heat check.
For a second they thought I was –
He's cold.
He's back off.
Don't throw it to him anymore.
No more Brian.
No more Brian, everybody.
But, I mean, I stole a base once
and thought that somehow the guy fouled the ball back.
And I ran back to first.
And it confused him so much.
I was on second.
And I thought, oh, they fouled it back.
So I started running back about halfway there.
He was like, throw it.
Throw it to first.
And I had to slide head first into first base.
Back to the base.
And I'm back right where I was with the first base coach.
And he's like, what are you doing, man?
You were there.
I was like, I thought they fouled it.
I thought they fouled it.
I didn't know.
So in a way, I stole two bases.
That's so good. That's never never happened before you're the only one he stole a base that he stole it back the look on my first base coach's face when he saw me coming
back there wow oh dude i mean just to be just i have to dive in just to like, just to have to dive in, just to like have to, you have to slide to fix a problem that shouldn't be a problem.
Like you're getting back to the original.
You could be like, dude, you could just stay here, man, and we won't be going through this.
And for you to get all the way to second.
That's amazing.
That's like, I feel like with you, you end up, anybody else, it's like, maybe you make it back to first, but you just go back to first.
And you're like, well, that was a stupid move.
And you're the only one that gets in a battle situation.
Just trying to get back to the original spot.
I mean, it's a full-on real play.
I mean, I went in head first.
The ump had to call safe. Oh, dude, it's a full-on real play. I mean, I went in head first. The ump had to call safe.
Oh, dude, that's unbelievable.
CJ, Brian has resting confused face.
That is true.
Well, let me say, first of all, when Nate's talking, it's not resting.
Yeah.
But I've had this before.
When I was a senior in high school, we went on our senior trip to Panama City.
It was my first time away from my parents.
I was so excited.
My friends down there.
And we met these girls.
I was trying to be so cool just hanging out.
And out of nowhere, one of these girls just goes, this guy looks worried.
And they all start dying laughing.
And they're like, look, he's worried.
And the rest of the trip, they called me worried.
That was my nickname was worried.
Worried is such a good word to use.
Like if they would have said, this guy looks confused.
Worried.
I mean, they labeled me that.
God, man.
Worried is such a good word.
Yeah.
For that situation.
Yeah, women know how to cut to your heart, don't they?
She could have said confused.
She could have said.
That would have ruined the whole trip for me.
I mean, I still remember it to this day.
You're just trying to hang out.
I was trying to be so cool by not talking.
This guy looks worried.
And then she, I mean, I hadn't said a word.
And his bum over here looks worried.
Who's he with?
You two?
And then for them just to call you worried.
God, that's so funny, dude.
I still remember it.
I mean, that's like professional stand-up.
You would try different words.
Right.
You would be scared.
You would try everything.
Yeah.
And worried.
If anybody's like like think about comedy worried is just a very funny word and it's a it's just such a description that it's not a strong person and it's a i mean it hurts like you know you don't
say worried about he man is not worried. No.
Soldiers are not worried.
They can be scared.
Scared is okay.
Worried.
Also, not worried about anything in particular.
Just worried in general.
That's a general look.
And it's coming from guys, you maybe could say that,
but from a girl.
And they all laughed.
I mean, I was mortified. Yeahified yeah got more worried she got super worried yeah it's uh it is self-fulfilling peter bridge when bruce told
the story about the woman i like how it's now just i mean it's not even i can't even find one
that calls me by my real name yeah i looked and it's what's so it's just how quickly it goes in
you know what i mean like it's not like where it goes in. You know what I mean?
It's not like where it's an obvious, we're making fun of a joke.
When Bruce told the story about the woman labeling,
I mean, it's just like a breeze.
When Bruce told the story about the woman labeling him as worried,
it quite literally made me pee.
Those chicks just totally nailed it.
He still gives off the worried vibe.
No offense, Bryce.
Yeah, worried is, I offense, Bryce. Yeah.
Worried is, I mean, that's unbelievable.
That'd be the name of your album, Worried.
It's the name of my life.
Yeah.
You really should.
Your next album should be Worried.
My next album.
It's just you being, well, you're going to have to do one now.
The people are going to want to hear it.
Yeah.
You know, everybody go buy his first album.
It's still out there. But Worried is a want to hear it. Yeah. You know, everybody go buy his first album. It's still out there.
But Worried is a great name for it.
I thought about that story all week.
Ace here, Bilbo's PBS pick is underrated.
That's a pretty good choice for one channel.
Thank you.
Bilbo.
I don't know if I should thank them or be insulted.
Bilbo's, I mean, that's a crazy name.
Aaron pointed out someone called me breakfast.
Breakfast is unbelievable.
Breakfast is as good as worried.
I mean, someone called you.
And this?
I don't think it's on here, but it was in the comments.
I mean, breakfast is unreal.
That's amazing.
That's the best one I've heard. Just to call i don't know his breakfast coming up it's got the same amount of syllables
as brian it's got the br yeah it's perfect and it's so ridiculous man yeah breakfast is good
i like how brickles and aaron are finding their niche roles in this production. Aaron, the reluctant genius, and Brisket is the self-deprecating setup man.
Brigade even smiled and laughed out loud a few times on this one.
Wow, we got some life out of Brigade.
Breakfast is moving around.
Colin Lippard.
Brad looks like the substitute teacher that desperately wants the approval
of the full
time teachers that's a great that's like a real comment comment you look like a substitute teacher
that you walk in the the teachers lounge just like hey guys and it's like hey and then one
the real teacher's like you don't work here full time, man. I know you're here for a while because Miss, you know, whatever,
Miss Smith is going through some stuff.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
She's got it because Miss Johnson's going through a divorce
and she can't be bothered by teaching, but you don't work here.
Love the podcast a lot.
Bon Bon andaron are amazing
and can't wait to see them both grow like you bon bon what do you what name do you think you're
going to make it as because it's not going to be brian it's going to be something else

out on stage and like oh god and then some guys like just wait he has to just wait all right so
we'll start with the beginning of grocery stores a little fun fact here the first self-service
grocery store this felt like doing a school you know when you let they go all right everybody
uh uh brian uh bring brian baits uh and then you it sounded exactly yeah you don't like the way i Brian Bring. Brian Bates.
And then it sounded exactly...
Yeah, you don't like the way I start stuff, I don't think.
Like your stand-up?
Like jokes?
Well, that's...
I've read like three times on the show
and twice you've called me out on the way I start it.
I don't think I'm good at starting, but...
Okay.
Here we go but yeah now i'm thinking about my jokes i gotta yeah how do you start your joke you said
hello folks you say folks yeah i'm pretty sure you say folks yeah it for every joke no when you
come out when you come out hello folks and you might say when you
leave you don't think you say do you say folks i don't think so i think you do okay every joke
every yeah every joke hey that's his that's his thing that's what people like that's his
and he sells t-shirts in the lobby to hello, folks! And it's just a picture
of him. That's his
image. Hello!
It's just seven hands
that go like that.
Hello, folks!
And then he
does his
act.
And then every joke, I start with it again.
Yeah.
Hello, folks.
Good night, folks.
How good did that be, man?
That's so good.
I mean, that's just like, that would be like if you're a stand-up comic,
you just got pulled out of Lebanon and you didn't know Nashville exists.
And then you're like, I've been doing comedy in Lebanon for 15 years. of comic you just got pulled out of lebanon and you didn't know nashville exists and you just and
then you're like i've been doing comedy in lebanon for 15 years all right sorry i've been to some bad
some sad zoos i haven't been to any really good ones what's a sad one yeah i went to one in
arkansas that was just there's just trash and every a lot of trash yeah and um and the saddest part was there's like a penguin exhibit
but it's arkansas in the summer so it's just these penguins all huddled up standing in front
of a fan in this exhibit yeah it was just i was like what or why are they here how do you say it
yeah what was the exhibit it was penguin yeah it was different penguin that's how i say penguin i say penguin penguin penguin

penguin exhibit hey what do you got going on here i'm just penguin i got a couple penguins
and we got bought put penguins downtown but the other day the other night i bought a couple

Can you look up the pronunciation?
I mean, this might be, nobody's interested in this, but now I feel.
Look, you may be right.

I thought usually Wikipedia shows you the pronunciation.
Yeah, you can do it.
Usually, if you just type in penguin pronunciation
on Google, you should be able to...
Just hear someone say penguin.
Oh, yeah.

I want to hear the legit...
One of those said penguin prostitution.

It doesn't get too cold.
It doesn't need.
It's 95 degrees in Arkansas right now.
Yeah.
Got a couple.
How much did they go for?
50 bucks.
A guy like that wouldn't know how to sell it.
Like, he wouldn't know that he could make money off of it.
He'd go, how much do you want for about those 50 bucks?
Get on that.
Are you crazy?
$50 for a penguin.
A couple of penguins, one of them's not even the right color.
Then he said, 25.
Yeah.
Anyway.
Penguin.
Penguin. I want some penguins and then they sell that's a restaurant you got that's like two penguins two penguin burgers go type in when you were typing that stuff in
yeah x out of the allow yeah here go penguin p Go penguin P. Now P.
I swear P are... Yeah, penguin prostitution.
I don't know what this...
We're not sure what this is.
Oh, it's a thing.
Penguin prostitution.
Oh, they want rocks more than sex.
Do penguins have...
Oh, we shouldn't be talking about this.
This is inappropriate.
Yeah.
This is... This Yeah. This is –
This podcast is off the rails already.
I mean, what happened?
I mean, that's the best thing you could hope.
What did you think it was going to be?
The guy in Wilkes-Barre down the alley?
I thought it could be something that has nothing to do with penguins.
I thought – I honestly thought it would be like
that's what they call
some other thing
and then
penguins are nothing
it's penguin
but it's straight up
penguin
we got penguin problems
how much you wanna
I love a guy selling that
and a couple penguins
in the back
one's all black
doesn't have any white
feet are blue.
Is it?
Let me see.
Let me see.
Is you kidding me right now?
I'm trying to start my own zoo, and I'd love some penguins is the thing that I think set us over the top.
I mean, I think that's what the guy says.
Because if I get a couple of penguins, I think we'll be just right.
I charge $8 to get in that place. Get a couple of penguins, I think we'll be just right. I'd charge $8 to get in that place.
Get a couple of penguins.
I love that.
The official pronunciation is how I was saying it.
It was, you know, just let that for the record.
All right.
So that's your worst?
Yeah, I don't even remember.
Yeah, that was it.
The Arkansas one.
It had a penguin exhibit.
I want to believe in aliens because it shows that some civilization
didn't blow themselves up and were able to get out in space
and have some fun.
Is that a hopeful thing?
Yeah.
Yeah, so there should be other civilian stations that they're
the planets blew themselves up yes is that what they think i think that you say civilian stations
it's one big happy civilian station i mean Are you trying to say civilization? Yeah. Okay.
It blew me away.
I was like,
civilian station.
And you want people to take us seriously.
How are they going to
take us seriously?
I mean,
I don't know.
I don't think they're...
Oh, boy.
Maybe they...
But I hope something
is called civilian station.
That's what Earth is called.
We are a station
for civilians.
Yeah, that's a good point.
Drop off point.
I think I'm ahead of the game.
I feel like an alien talking to dumb humans a lot.
Because people make fun of what I say.
And I'm like, and I always just go, you're C.
You're going to one day use this civilian station.
A lot of weeks in the comments, the next week someone will say,
Nate was actually right.
He's ahead of his time somehow.
There's no such thing as civilization.
It's a conspiracy.
Is there been other civilizations?
Sniveling nation.
Is there been other civilian stations?
I don't think that's a crazy question.
Critical comedy reaction.
It's a meltdown.
In all seriousness though,
there's been other civilian stations,
that's what we're going to call other planets,
where civilians have lived,
is what they say,
and they're gone.
I would think they're gone.
The argument is the reason we've never found
in all our vast searching...
I'm sorry.
Success.
Now we're just having to see some
life out of you.
That's so funny.
The argument is, in all our searching of all the
cosmos, one argument is maybe
because they've long
since destroyed themselves.
And they advance like we do
with nuclear weapons of some sort, and then
they eventually just kill themselves.
And so they, all right.
Aaron's done.
Civilian stations.
It's, that's what we're going to call this episode.
Don't you think that's a good that's how to describe earth
nobody's ever made that mistake
the dribbling vacation
civilization
I just kind of stopped
it was like
stop saying it
he was at the
breaking point and that was just the shove he needed.
It was like I was walking down a road.
I looked the other way.
And then I go, where was I?
But I was still in the same word when all that happened.
It gets better and better.
Civilian station.
Wait until you're 60.
Civilian nation.
Things come out of your mouth.
You don't even know.
It's not my fault.
I was raised.
I was taught by humans.
So traveling is a big deal.
It's a big deal during the holidays.
What is it the most?
When's the, do you know like the most?
Most traveled?
Thanksgiving.
Thanksgiving.
Why is Thanksgiving?
I guess Santa.
Yes. Santa Claus travels. So Santa's got Thanksgiving? I guess Santa. Yes.
Santa Claus travels.
So Santa's got to come to your home.
So that's, you know.
Yeah, people with kids, they want to stay home and do that.
But Thanksgiving's more of a go see the.
It's also a secular holiday.
So everybody, all Americans celebrate it, I feel like.
Yeah.
It's a big word, man.
But I thought you were going to argue that's why Thanksgiving's more travel. That's uh i thought you were gonna argue that's why thanksgiving
it's more travel that's what i'm saying yeah that's why thanksgiving is more travel say that
word just at your dinner table with your family secular yeah i mean it depends on the conversation
would that be the conversation comes up maybe then you go it's my favorite secular holiday
and your family would just you come from a smart family though, right? So you guys probably use, you do like science experiences.
I guess I remember using that because my parents would make us go to mass on Thanksgiving sometimes.
And I remember being like, come on, this is a secular holiday, dude.
This isn't even.
You would say that in an argument to your parents.
Oh, yeah, come on, this is a secular holiday.
What are we doing here?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Church and state, come on.
I mean, wow, dude.
Wow.
Yeah.
Did you have a lab coat on did i mean that's
you use it in i mean i don't you know yeah i we we just my family just clap at each other we make noises like monkeys really yeah we're just you know they throw things call each other idiots
yeah we're the idiot family and we just you know yeah just stomp on the ground when you want
something you know it's like how horses talk to each other that's how that's a we that's what
goes on in our family just walk in just hear noises You listen to the well sounds? You're like, no, my mom's cooking some.
We're not using secular, I can tell you that right now.
If I threw that around my family, we'd all be like, oh, all right.
Whoa, someone's taking some online classes somewhere, aren't we?
But there's no mention of when Jesus was born in the Bible.
Yeah.
Isn't it supposed to be, you know, the people just think it's July, right?
I've heard some people think spring or summer.
They weren't using a Gregorian calendar back then.
No.
So who knows what time.
No.
Would y'all use a Gregorian calendar too?
Would y'all do that a lot?
That's the calendar that we all use the gregorian calendar right did but would you with those words i mean i just would love to
be that like you bring your girlfriend over like from high school and you go my family it's great
thanks for coming and then it's you know it's like uh you know it's like hey how you doing
what's your what's your favorite secular holiday? You know, on the Gregorian calendar, obviously.
And then the girl's like, what?
That's the word you guys are going to use? Just run her off?
Wouldn't be fire.
I mean, I would almost say lever.
A lever.
Like a pulley or a lever, maybe.
I don't know, like a fulcrum.
What?
What's a fulcrum?
You know, like a seesaw thing. Oh, kind of is that what they say is that what you said be the thing in the middle is that what you're saying when you go
ride as a kid you're just a fun kid you guys want to go fulcrum and everybody's like oh god
do you remember riding the fulcrum a lot alone is it that is it because that's that's how you
described a lot of stuff hey yeah i was gonna ride the fulcrum and they go i don't you know
anybody want a fulcrum we're gonna just swing i mean that is what it is right anyway so what do
you think is going to do i think i can get through a dozen chocolate yeah which i i guess is i did it's like if two
dozen it's a 228 80 calories is a dozen chocolate what was that i don't know man 28 80 you said a
number that didn't exist 20 28 80 2880 okay you don't think that's a 2880 i mean 2880 calories so baits uh eight do we have a time limit
no but it's like just how do we be reasonable in all day yeah okay you tried to just go down
and eat baits eight laura what do you think i said eight original eight so baits and laura eight
so who could basically beat eight?
And I'm doing, I say a dozen chocolate.
And I honestly think I can get some glazed in there after that.
You're still hungry after that?
If I'm still, if we can drink and stuff, right?
I think we're fine.
And then, so I think a dozen, two dozen.
So it's over under.
Can you get to two dozens is the answer.
Okay.
That's, I think two dozen is the thing. Can I get through through a dozen chocolate and do i add some glazed on i don't
know but those are i think those are the highlights eight two dozen one dozen chocolates
so funny the difference we're gonna do eight 24 24 yeah wow well that's how I'm doing. 12, I'm trying to meet you halfway.
I know.
I know.
It's just weird.
I got chocolate.
You guys are professionals.
Yeah, this is what we do, man.
I think we're here.
I think I might be about done.
Okay.
I'm feeling it.
Where do you stand?
All right.
Hold on.
So, yeah.
I mean, I think, look.
I mean, I feel I'm at, I know I was at letdown.
I think we all agree Laura was, I feel I'm at, I know, I was a letdown. I think we all agree,
Laura was the biggest letdown.
But...
I did three and a half.
Three and a half.
I, uh, we went, you know,
our numbers are not excited.
Laura did three and a half.
I was, I thought I could do a dozen.
I did chocolate to start.
I think I did four chocolate,
four chocolate,
and then two and a half of original glaze.
Switched it up.
So I'm at six and a half.
Before being chocolate.
So that's something.
Chocolate's a little...
It's different.
It's a different animal for sure.
It's different.
Yeah, it's a lot.
It goes down different.
The texture's different. It's hard. It's a different. Yeah. It's a lot. It goes down different. The texture is different.
It's hard.
It's a lot going on.
Brian, breakfast.
This is, he should succeed at this as we call him breakfast.
And he did.
He did better than expected.
We said eight was the over under.
He did nine.
Yep.
Nine.
Pretty easy.
Pretty easy. Aaron did nine. Yep. Nine. Pretty easy. Pretty easy.
Aaron, Mr. 36, Mr. Iraq.
What?
I had 12 glazed and one chocolate.
13.
12 glazed, one chocolate.
13. Hey, I'll give you a third. Yeah. and one chocolate. Thirteen. Twelve glazed, one chocolate. Thirteen.
Hey, I'll give you...
Thirteen to the third.
Yeah.
I'll give you that,
the chocolate,
or I'll give you the dozen.
It's definitely tough, man.
Yeah.
It's not an easy thing.
You saying 36 is unbelievable.
Yeah, that's true.
That's such a high number
to be like,
you couldn't even get to 24.
I don't think you can.
No. I don't think you can. I mean I did you eat today? No, I didn't eat today. I didn't eat since last night. I had breakfast
You had breakfast? Yeah
Still ain't ate. This is my lunch. You could have waited till you could have got to 12 if you didn't eat breakfast
I mean, I can exceed my goal. Breakfast has to get breakfast.
I could.
These guys talk a big game.
I back it up.
Well, if my mother's life depended on it,
I could eat a few more.
But I feel myself like,
oh, I'm about to maybe throw up.
Yeah, you could eat till you throw up.
They're so sweet.
It's just, it's a lot.
I'm thinking about the sheer volume of stuff.
Yeah.
That I just ate.
Yeah.
I mean, we got one, two, three, four.
We still got five boxes. I mean.
I told Laura, she goes, eight.
I go, let's do 10.
I said five or four.
She said four or five.
And I said, I don't think you can listen to the podcast.
I said, get 10.
She was right.
And here we are.
We could have done one.
Kyle M., dear Nathaniel, I am a teacher in China,
and I can't go one more day without you using the word good as an adverb.
The correct word is well.
I've heard five-year-old Chinese kids speak better than you.
One of them even has a guided horse.
Perhaps bridle path should be catching these.
Where, Kyle?
Well, Kyle.
How about I tell you, I'm not really sure what an adverb is.
So how does that make you feel?
He gave an example here.
I didn't even pick up on it.
Where was it?
Underneath it.
Where it says, here's an example.
Oh, I've read.
Oh, here's an example.
Incorrect.
He plays golf good.
Correct.
He plays golf well.
Look, I'm not an adverb guy.
And I don't talk about adverbs.
I don't think I've ever talked about them.
He thinks a pronoun's a noun that gets paid to be in a sentence.
I say good a lot.
But I will say, I do know that when I'm saying good,
that a lot of times it's not good.
But I do it, it's saying it different, which sticks out.
I'm in a job of words.
So he plays golf well.
I'm not going to talk like that.
That doesn't fit.
It's funnier when I say it's good.
Good is what's funny.
That's what's funny.
If it gets under your skin, that means it's probably a better way of being funnier.
All your Chinese kids, you're not going to make it in comedy.
Talk to them a little bit. I'm sure they speak better than me you know but we're not competing for the same job
good on them he spoke well court gestures yeah we spent 15 minutes on rolling the
farter and then we were just like and the crusades happened oh wow that seemed like a tough time court what court gestures
how do you say it gestures you got called out a lot for people
gestures gestures yeah gesture you can say gesture like i say like chester. Like Chester drawers. No, like...
Do you think that's who invented them? Court Chester
and then Chester drawers and he goes,
I'll just change it to CH
and then didn't even notice.
We're going to sell
Chester drawers on our website.
What do you mean?
That's Chester.
I'm putting an H in there yeah you're saying it
like oh that was a nice gesture gesture but it's just her just her like just her just her just her
just our heart who's in there just her she's in there alone that's closer court jester just her
so i should say just her that's's closer than gesture. Court just her.
That's better?
Just her in court?
Court?
Those words I have trouble.
When there's a collision of sounds right in the middle of them, I have a tough time.
there's a collision of sounds right in the middle of them i have a tough time you know when there's a car wreck of noise in the middle of a word i have a i have a bit a bit of a trouble a bit of
a trouble with it my dogman story in 2006 in murfsboro tennessee me my brother and two friends
were walking in the back of an unfinished neighborhood in the black man community
black blackman that sounds
much better than that man i mean that sounds you're like where's this yeah i was like oh my god
that's crazy unfinished neighborhood in the black man community like oh what is this podcast
that's how you say that is super important that's a very important
i should have got some heads up i should have been briefed before we got to that one
maria alvarez shout out from a stenographer
it's when the words like come around the corner and surprise me you know what i mean
it's i don't know they're there and it's it's like i just get the you know stenographer there
you go well i know but it's honestly it's the word just is like i don't know that's a word you
don't see written very often oh no it's whole job is writing it, but they just say it. Yeah, it kind of surprised me.
That's how I look.
If I don't know a word, just understand that's what it is.
Onomatopoeia is actually not that hard of a word to say,
but if you look at it, you'd be like, oh, no, I don't know.
Onomatopoeia.
It kind of just finishes itself.
Matt Oregon, my 10th grade english teacher taught us that
on a on a mon on a what is it on a monopone onomatopoeia onomatopoeia onomatopoeia
is the second most rhymeical rhythmical rhythm what's that word golly rhythmical rhythmical
onomatopoeia is the second most rhythmical.
That felt like I was trying to jump over and not fall in the water during that word.
Rhythmical.
Rhythmical.
Like I just go, like trying to cross a creek and not get my feet wet.
You got to kind of, the last one's a little bit farther.
I'm like, I'll get there.
The first iPhone came out in 2007.
Steve Jobs made a prank call order of 4,000 lattes to a nearby Starbucks.
That was the first call?
Yeah.
I remember that.
I watched that live.
Really?
That keynote.
Yeah.
He called.
Oh, he was doing a keynote.
It was the first time I remember being amazed
by a piece of technology.
When he scrolled on the iPhone for the first time I remember being amazed by a piece of technology. When he scrolled on the iPhone for the first time, just on the screen, I remember gasping.
Not air conditioning?
I was watching it with my sister.
I grew up with air conditioning.
You probably remember getting it, but I grew up with it.
So when you saw that, you go, you gasped.
I did.
I mean, it was unlike anything you'd ever seen this guy's
touching a screen yeah and flipping it up i'm like gasping like you've seen it i mean like
you're watching what just nothing impresses you you just go i don't know if i'm sitting
you're watching on a television at home you know you're not watching houdini in a town square in
the 1800s as you tell me as a 10-year-old Aaron Webber
in your living room, you go,
oh, he just, he scrolled on the screen.
And your family came running in.
If you watch the, you can watch the video of that,
the crowd gasps as it happens.
I mean, maybe in the room and like,
I get that you're saying in the living,
in your living room on your television.
How old were you?
When did this happen?
2007.
16?
Yeah, when they un- 15, 16.
What's the matter?
What's the matter with you gasping?
Another grown man on TV scrolling?
I'm not saying I'm not wowed by things,
but I don't know if I'm gasping i don't know
if i've gasped at anything you've never gasped i don't think so i mean it wasn't like i wasn't
oh it wasn't embarrassing what was that i was like oh wow mama
you said that you said they ain't gonna do it but they did it mama he's swapping on this did
you start swapping on your tv and just go is it gonna move that's how you change the channel on
your tv you just started like rubbing on the screen i wonder they make as much though as a
professor for that one class yeah i mean you get paid class by class if you really feel like a celebrity they might get paid more right yeah who are you talking to no he was nodding no answer
i mean aaron's aaron started his own podcast within the podcast he's i mean he's over here
what is going on he's's just, my goodness.
Everybody, please welcome to listen to Aaron Land.
When is it air?
Air is during Nate Land.
Sorry.
I didn't know you guys were going to do something together.
He was answering the question.
I'm sorry about that, man.
Welcome, everybody. You know, I've debated of changing, seeing what people thought about changing hello folks.
To what?
To let's go folks.
Is that not maybe better?
Let's go, folks.
Yeah.
It's like, I feel like it gets us out of the mix of everybody being hello folks like
every people say hello folks folks yeah just as a normal expression as a normal expression
and i mean i've had people say hello folks i mean because there's been a couple times someone said
someone said it and then i think like they're saying it to us and then you're like oh they're
just that's just how the guy speaks.
Yeah.
So you want to do let's go.
Let's go, folks.
Because we're making fun of let's go, no?
Yeah, I mean, that's not bad.
I'm on board.
People are commenting let's go everywhere now
after last week's episode.
So I feel like we can't escape it anyway.
Give it a try.
See what everybody thinks about it.
See how it feels.
See how it feels.
Let's go, folks.
Welcome, everybody, to the podcast.
I started with the let's go.
I don't know if that's going to be the...
I mean, truthfully, all this being said,
I do think I get to decide what I want to say.
I mean, that is true.
So I enjoy talking about it and being in the mix.
How did it feel just now?
Let's go, folks.
It feels great.
I like it.
I like it.
I like the specific.
You threw a poll up on Instagram and Twitter.
And so let's go and hello, folks.
Here's the Instagram results.
1,400 people – oh, I mean over 2,000 people voted.
62% hello, folks.
38% let's go, folks.
What I would say is a lot of this is it's people that don't want change.
And that's, you know,
Laura, you know who over here?
People that are stuck in their ways.
All three of our whys voted for hello folks.
Oh, did they really?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Did they listen to it?
That's the thing, too.
Did people listen to the...
And hear the explanation
and hear the context for it?
Yeah, and everything.
I don't know if Laura did.
Yeah, Laura doesn't.
Here's the Twitter.
Hello, folks.
Same thing.
Everybody still likes hello, folks,
because we've been doing hello, folks.
Hello, folks.
I'm not saying I'm against...
I like hello, folks.
I think let's go, folks, just stands out more.
Yeah. I think let's go, folks just stands out more. I think it's different.
Hello, folks is we're just saying the same greeting
that's been said for 100 years.
Yeah.
Right?
Well, a lot of it is in the inflection that you do it.
I think that is unique in a way.
Let's go, folks.
Well, even the hello, folks. Hello, folks. How do people go, hello, folks? I mean, who talks like that? that you do it i think that is unique in a way let's go how many people well well the hell even
hello folks hello hello folks yeah i mean who talks like that yeah yeah i'm not changing the
folks look it's not for sure yet i we're gonna do we're doing another uh we can do another poll but
i want we're we're gonna we're not doing it now yeah okay give it let us breathe we'll keep doing polls till we get the results we want yeah yeah yeah we'll do another one so
how long do you guys want this to go on if you know what i mean uh we but i we're do it again
but we i want it to be a little it needs it let's let everybody i want you to think in your soul about this yeah get
into it i might switch let me think about it a little more maybe maybe it's hello folks maybe
i just want it to be back hello folks yeah can we have both huh could we do both we can't yeah
you can do everybody do whatever you want but i don't know what the point of uh it's the inch if it's the intro to the
podcast i'm not gonna go hello folks let's go folks like you're getting nowhere yeah that's how
someone gets where they don't they go nowhere in life is they go let's just do both
let's turn quickly yeah that's what happens you don't make a decision you don't make a
decision you don't move forward you kind of sit in the decision of two things
is that not true yeah i got way more serious than i was anticipating
you pivoted that into like real life advice that's that is but i'm but that's uh that's
why you can't just sit and do. I mean, I don't know.
You asked if we could do two.
I'm telling you the reason why.
I know, but we just did a poll where overwhelmingly,
he was like, let's just let it sit for a while.
You did a poll.
Was the episode even up?
I put that out, I think, three days later.
I mean, people listen to this podcast like on way. We're acting like we're on a live show.
It comes out.
People listen to it.
People are going to think about it.
I'm letting people think.
We're making a decision.
We'll come back.
I'm on board with Let's Go, folks,
but I hope the next poll is 90% hello.
Just as an answer.
Don't just do that's gone the other way.
Don't just do that just to make a point.
That's true.
If that happens, I'm going to make sure.
Answer honestly.
Yeah.
I'm going to make it.
We're going to do another poll if that happens.
So it's this week.
You know, if you don't want to do it, obviously a lot of you like Joe might be over this.
I think a lot of comments have been at this point, we don't care.
Just stop talking about it.
Oh, we don't have to do the poll. No, no's do the poll okay let's see it can be three quick like here's what i think i think it should be hello folks that's this this we're in hello folks
and if we see each other out in the wild i i think it's whatever you want hello folks or let's go
folks i think it's fun to like you can be let's go folks and you scream like that kind of thing.
Like,
you know,
it's kind of,
it's,
it's,
it's both of them.
It may is hello folks is the response.
Let's go folks.
Or maybe say I'm a hello folks person.
I'm a let's go folks person,
but we're all folks and we all get along.
So hello folks only let's go folks only or hello folks slash let's go folks.
Hello folks.
Let's go folks in the wild.
Okay.
Does people get that?
I don't think I get it.
Not in here, like when we're out and about.
It's your own choice.
Hello folks, let's go folks.
Does that make sense?
That's basically what it is.
I don't know if we have to do a poll.
All right.
We don't even have to do the poll.
Okay, yeah. There's no reason for the point i think it's hello folks here moving forward we're done you can still in
your comments you all right let's go folks like that's funny like it's a funny they're both funny
things but hello folks is how we will greet you how we will start our day in the land somehow i
missed out that boy bands weren't cool if you're a guy.
Because New Edition, they were a big thing, but that's the only boy.
And then before my senior year of high school, right before we started back,
me and my buddy went to the New Kids on the Block concert.
And we didn't realize that that's not cool for guys.
So I bought a t-shirt at Starwood Amphitheater to wear to school my first day of my senior year.
That's a big statement.
Well, people quickly let me know.
I wore this shirt to school the first day of my senior year.
And it didn't go over well.
Guys, quickly let me know.
That's not cool.
Like an improv troupe.
Yeah.
You would be, what did you tell them?
Did you do a concert?
You're like, no, I stole it from some girl.
That would be what you should have.
You would have been like, all right, that's cool.
I beat up a girl
i mean i was so proud it took like third period of people just like what are you doing man before
i realized this was a huge mistake and you had to wear it all day all day yeah i mean
yeah i couldn't go home yeah could you turn it on its head and be like yeah it's
yeah it's hilarious that i'm wearing i could I could have if I was smart, but no.
It took me half the day to realize it's not cool.
If you had a time machine, we could go back and fix it.
You're kind of past the point of, don't you think you could have done it?
Yeah, I could have done a lot of stuff.
There's a lot of stuff I could have done differently.
A little bit more.
I went up to a guy in high school and asked for his autograph.
Wait, who was it? bit more i went up to a guy in high school and asked for his autograph you didn't go to my high school were you in in high school? I was like a freshman in high school,
and I was the biggest sports fan in the world.
And I read like every Street and Smith College basketball magazine
from cover to cover.
And they listed the top high school players coming out.
And a guy named Carlos Groves played at East Robertson High School.
And he got recruited by Tennessee, and he was in my magazine.
And I was so excited that he came to our high school to play.
He was like a celebrity that I went up to him and had him in my magazine and I was so excited that he came to our high school to play. He was like a celebrity
that I went up to him
and had him autograph my magazine
and his buddies were like
teasing him.
Yeah.
You know,
like what,
it would almost be like
if somebody came up to me now,
like it was just ridiculous
everywhere around.
Like he was embarrassed.
I'm the only one
not embarrassed at the time.
Yeah.
Everybody else is like,
what is going on here?
And they just teased him about it.
How far can you throw a football?
That sounds like a child just walked in.
How big's your hands?
Yeah.
How much do you weigh?
Is your head bigger than my dad's head?
I think my dad can beat you up.
And you're like, all right.
Can we get him, someone calm him down a little bit?
Chris Radcliffe.
Nate, the worst word I butchered while reading out loud was horse divorce.
Hors d'oeuvres.
Hors d'oeuvres.
Yeah.
I pronounce it as hours devours.
And probably got ridiculed by my friends.
I'm curious how you're pronouncing it right now.
I said horse divorce.
A horse divorce.
A horse divorce.
It's been happening a lot around here.
Horse divorces.
What if you get a lawyer?
That looks like a business card should be that. What do you do? I do horse divorces what if you get a lawyer that looks like a business card should be that what do you do i do horse divorces and then he goes oh specialize specialize in horse divorces
so they get divorced a lot more than you think imagine what what do you think it is and you go

They're all so unhappy.
They're all so unhappy.
And I deal with horse divorces.
I got more than I want.

How did they get to that?
I don't know.

There's not a chance.
Yeah.
And even if you know it, you don't see that in your head when you say hors d'oeuvres.
Yeah.
You know, nobody does.
Horse.

I think we have hugged.
It'll take a second.
We've hugged.
Occasionally.
When you got married.
Yep.
When this baby's born.
The fact that you guys are ever going to argue about it just proves it's not enough.
I just wish we hugged more is what I'm saying.
Yeah, there's a point.
I hugged.
Yeah, there's my buddy Dan Shacky.
We never would shake hands when we would leave
because he'd be like, we're about to see each other.
You know, it's like sometimes it's like you can be like,
what are we doing?
Right.
You know, but I like hugging.
But when you're around someone all the time, I'm not hugging.
Here we go.
Here's the end.
So you get up.

Hey, man.
Here we go.
Congratulations, dude.
And.
Priorities.
So there's a regional in Pittsburgh, and it's not in the city, but the Saturday, you know, a group of little people are like, let's go and see downtown Pittsburgh.
So this one girl, she has a new minivan.
All right.
We're all little people.
Her dad just bought this new brand new
beautiful minivan accessible van you know very expensive so we go into downtown pittsburgh
and everyone's drinking you know and and i'm not because you know it's early and i was just tired
so the girl whose minivan it is she only had like one beer but she was like i probably shouldn't drive i was like
i'll drive you know i'm fine you know and so now we're on the fourth floor of a parking garage
that is on a very heavy steep incline okay fourth floor down and so i get in very confident okay i'm
a good driver and i i start the car and i and i the car, and I put my foot on the brake now, and I put it in reverse.
Now what happens is the pedal extension falls off the brake.
So you put an extension on, obviously.
I drive with pedal extension, so it's like a regular pedal, but there's two extended bars that attach to the pedals.
One on the gas, one on the brake.
So when I put the car in reverse and I put my foot on the brake, I don't know how, but my foot just knocks that brake pedal off.
So now all of a sudden, within a second, we are just full speed going backwards down on the fourth floor.
And there's a guardrail where we could just go over five little people in this minivan.
We're just dead.
So real instinct.
I'm like, look, I got to save us.
So I just start hitting cars on the way.
Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.
I'm slowing us down.
And I hit seven cars.
And now I get out and, you know, she is just like, I cannot believe this.
This is the brand new minivan my family has been saving for.
And I just hit seven cars.
I smashed.
So now we have to just sit there and wait to tell all these people that I, along with these other five innocent little people,
just smashed and destroyed all these cars.
I mean, just so many people walking out, like seven people.
I mean, possibly 15 people were walking out, and you're like, how you doing?
Did you park on the fourth floor?
You got to ask if they're like, yeah.
All right, well, we probably got some news for you.
And then we got to get back to the hotel later because this is the convention.
Yeah. And that's like the talk of the conference.
Every little person knows what happens.
Like everyone's mad.
You know, this family has been saving up for this minivan.
And this is years ago. We're talking about 15 years ago.
But I actually saw that girl.
You know, I see her all the time.
But a couple of years ago, she's like, you know, we're still paying off for that.
girl, you know, I see her all the time, but a couple years ago, she's like, you know,
we're still paying off for that.
I told you the story about going to have a spot roof for my face, and they told me to put on a hospital gown, and I'd never, I've never been in the hospital.
Yeah.
So I didn't know if you're supposed to take your clothes off or not.
So I started, I was, for some reason in my head, I thought it'd look dumber if I still
had my clothes on
when they come with the gown
so I just started
stripping down
and right when I just
get down to the
the nurse knocks on the door
and I was like
just a minute
and she's like
it's just me hun
and I was thinking
man
we just met
and she comes on in
with an intern
and I'm just whatever
she's like
oh you didn't have to
take your bottoms off hun yeah so where's your spot getting removed right here next to your eye next to your eye
so then she has to leave the room and i have to completely put all my clothes back on
and then the gown on
why did you have to put the gown on to begin with just keep blood from like oh yeah getting on me
because yeah that i completely stripped down took your jeans off i took everything off i mean you're
my socks are off yeah it's like a normal doctor's office like they're going like yeah we don't do
stuff like this man like you had she had an intern with her. Yeah.
Good night.
Walks in.
Did they laugh?
I think they were more startled than anything.
But then I have to put it all back on, and then he comes in with her and the intern,
and I'm just like, I know they've been out there talking about you. Oh, yeah.
Everybody's talked about you.
Yeah.
Oh, everybody. Yeah. That out there talking about you. Oh. Yeah. Probably still are. Everybody's talked about you. Yeah. Oh, everybody.
Yeah.
That was like, and they went home.
The guy in 431 took all his clothes off.
Oh, good.
Because he looks like he would have.
Is it good?
Yeah.
They know immediately who you're talking?
Yeah.
Don't tell me.
Let me guess.
My wallet's gone.
My wallet's gone.
I mean, God, they make you really study when you sell peanut butter My wallet's gone. I mean.
God, they make you really study when you sell peanut butter, huh?
Yeah, I mean, you know.
People ask these questions.
You just don't go selling it.
Yeah.
You know what's happening.
You show up at somebody's doorstep, you better know your stuff.
Yeah.
I think nowadays.
There was no doorsteps, man.
I know.
It wasn't selling Girl Scout cookies or something, man.
Encyclopedias.
Come on.
I had big accounts, Darren.
Big accounts.
You tie the horse up to the thing and walk inside.
I had like Kroger.
You know, like I had.
Ooh.
Yeah.
All right.
Wow.
God.
Yeah.
You're kind of belittling what I did.
You got to talk Kroger into buying peanut butter.
They were an anti-peanut butter.
Go ahead.
No, no.
Now you sound like my dad.
Okay.
Who was like, you know, I always had a hard time explaining the job.
It was a good job.
Yeah.
It was like, you know, paid a lot, and it was a competitive job to get,
but my dad was like, well, you know, you're not really in sales.
I'm like, yeah, I am.
He was like, well, I've been going to the grocery store for 60 years
and they've always had Jif peanut butter.
Yeah.
What do they need you for?
It's not about whether they carry it or not.
It's about how much they sell to their consumer.
And there's all kinds of things, dials and switches I can move
to help them sell more.
And he'd still be like, yeah, yeah, you're not in sales.
Like the display and such.
Display is a big display.
Shelf placement.
Shelf placement is another.
Shelf placement is another.
You want to be eye level?
You'd like to be eye level.
Yeah.
You'd like to have a block.
You'd like to have a real nice block.
I don't know why that's funny, Nate.
I'm telling you, this is important stuff here.
He said you'd like to be eye level. It's just such a serious. I felt telling you, this is important stuff here. He said you like to be a P.
Like, it's just such a serious,
like, I felt like
I was interviewing
to be a P.
I go, so we want to be eye level?
You like to be.
Don't expect to be eye level.
You're not just going to walk in there
and be eye level.
You're just going to walk in
and say you're eye level.
I mean, yeah,
you're a new kid on the block.
Don't think you're going to,
they're going to try to throw you
at the bottom.
You show up the first day.
Yeah.
Yeah, I mean,
and I saw it in a lot
of different places.
I mean, Jif, we were brand leader usually.
We were.
If you walk into a store today and you see Jif on the bottom shelf,
somebody did something to make somebody angry.
Yeah.
Interesting.
Yeah.
Now Pringles, that was a whole, we were, you know.
You sold Pringles too?
Yeah, I sold Pringles.
So you got out of peanut butter.
No, no.
I was saying they were the same company.
I sold Pringles, Jif, Duncan same company i saw pringles jiff duncan
hines is pringles considered a potato chip it is you're selling very easy you're selling things
that are not easy i mean these i'm i think i'm on your dad's team i know it's you're selling stuff
that's like i don't know i swear i went through this the things that i have to have yeah i went
through this but i was like that's like's like you're selling cocaine. It goes pretty good.
People really like it.
You go, oh, is it hard to do?
No, but I had competitors.
You go up against Skippy and see how well you do.
Jif is the main one.
It is the main, but it got there through guys like me.
Food's on the ground.
Food's on the ground.
Yeah.
Shoe leather and knuckles.
And now we know who to thank.
Yeah.
Okay.
I started Jiffy's spelled with a G.
Y'all are like the Moneyball chip.
Like y'all were.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You're like Moneyball in baseball.
Yeah.
Your first ones use analytics.
There's rich companies and there's poor companies.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And there's 50 feet of crap.
And then there's Pringles.
Wait a minute, man. No, man no no no we weren't that you know
that that uh we were was so was pizza licious a big deal for y'all i think pizza licious uh
slated right in and like a number five and our flavor lineup here's the thing and it's a secret
uh the red can original red can that you're doing about 80 of the volume in that red can i
don't know what's funny about this i mean this is important stuff it's uh number five in the flavor
lineup yeah so what is which they probably had it slated in a nine when they probably thought it
was coming in at a nine you had red can original is 80 of the business yeah okay and then you had uh um what
we called right crisp couldn't call it light we did call it light and then they said we couldn't
because it wasn't it wasn't low fat enough back then so we had to call it right chris it was in
a silver can that was usually the number two y'all didn't think about making the chip healthier you
just said we'll just change the name a little bit. I mean, it was healthier. Yeah, it was healthier.
It was healthier.
I agree.
Just not enough.
Not enough.
Not enough.
I still think it was a smart choice.
I mean, you know.
And then the green canned sour cream and onion, that's a solid, solid flavor.
And then Cheezums.
Cheezums was probably a number of four.
And I'll tell you, and I lose sleep over it even today,
we never got the barbecue product right.
Yeah.
We never got our fair share of the barbecue business.
And that's-
We didn't.
And that's a big deal in chips.
A huge deal in chips.
I go barbecue a lot.
Yeah.
I go barbecue probably the most I would go of something.
And it's Lay's Barbecue, right?
Do you eat barbecue Pringles?
No.
You don't?
No. That's true. That's on us, man. eat barbecue Pringles? No. You don't? No.
That's true.
That's on us, man.
That is.
That is on us.
That's not on you.
That's not on you.
The fact that you guys own.
Yeah, you own up to it.
You own up to it.
I will go do more of your barbecue Pringles.
Yeah.
This is the 100th episode, right?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Pretty crazy.
Did you think we'd make it?
To 100?
Yeah.
I don't know. I don't think I thought of it. You didn't think we'd make it? To 100? Yeah. I don't know.
I don't think I thought of it.
You didn't think we'd make it.
Yeah.
Brian and I.
You knew you'd get here.
When I look at both of y'all, I think, golly, how did y'all slip by me for 100 episodes?
No, I don't know if I...
No, I mean, I thought...
I don't know.
I don't know what I thought when we started it.
But it's...
I mean, every time I go to shows, people I don't know what I thought when we started it, but it's, you know, I mean, every time
I go to shows, people come up, they listen to it.
They love it.
I, it's, it is fun to do.
Uh, so it's great.
And I love that.
I mean, I love how much people are listening to it.
And so it's fun.
A hundred episodes.
Yeah.
So with a hundred episodes, uh, we, we are going to change up something a little bit.
And, yeah, Bates, you go.
You move up to my role, Bates.
I'm in your role.
People voted, and they wanted more Brian.
So we're going to change it up, and we're adding a fourth co-host.
Oh, man.
So it'll be four of us.
I know people, you know, we've mentioned stuff like that.
I think it's fun.
I'm excited about it.
It's just another comic, someone that's funny that I think fits very well with us.
I believe we haven't blurred out right now.
And if you're at home, you're trying to guess, you can pause it.
If you want to pause it and try to take a shot.
I mean, you think they could.
I don't know.
Who are we going to guess?
He's appeared on the show before.
Aaron, do you want to take a guess?
Would you have any idea?
Yeah, I got a pretty good clue.
Well, he's blurred out, Aaron.
So how could you see him?
Can I guess?
You took that like it was a real beating.
I thought we were going to go play along.
You made it sound like I really just yelled at you.
Oh, yeah.
It was a cower over here in the corner.
You go, I'm sorry.
My bad, dude.
Can I guess?
Yeah.
I'm going to say it's the guy that used to work with your sister,
who's the Bigfoot expert.
He is.
It is.
We brought him in.
He was great.
He was amazing.
Welcome to Nate Land, Dusty Slick.
All right.
All right.
We're having a good time.
Having a good time.
Wow, that buildup really had me.
You know what I mean?
I was more nervous about that build-up than going on shows yeah well we're look i think uh
uh we're big fans obviously and i think you fit well with us uh you grew up poorer than all of us
which is nice yeah bring in a real poor aspect to this.
A lot of money floating around this table.
Yeah.
Well, we didn't have money.
Aaron comes from a pretty wealthy family.
That's right.
He comes from royals.
Yes.
And then, but so me and Bates wanted to feel,
we wanted to be able to punch down.
And we were like, well, who could we get?
Oh, Dustin was in a trailer park.
That's right.
I brought food stamps with me this time around just to pass
out just so you knew what they looked like. That's how we're
paying them. We have these
bells too. We bought bells. You
walk around the bell and it like rings
a little bit and a bear bell.
And so it's like enough to like so the bear would hear
you then because the bear doesn't want to
meet you. But it's like if you walk
up on it, that's when you can get
in trouble. the bell thing though
we wore it the first day and no one else had a bell and i felt so stupid as we're walking by
these people like ding and then i looked it up and people were like yeah those don't you know
because it's like they're not loud enough like the bears hearing is like our hearing i think
and so it's like you know i don know. It's like maybe it would work.
And it's not, you could do it, but it's,
I mean, we're walking by children without bells.
And so I was like, all right.
We were yelling, hey, bear, so much.
And you just go, hey, bear.
Just a group of family of four walks by.
You're like, oh, you're a bear.
Paul D.
I think hey, bear should be the response to hello, folks. I like that., you're a bear. Paul D. I think hay bear
should be the response
to hello folks.
I like that.
Yeah,
that's fun.
You know,
the last podcast
I started with hay bear.
Yeah.
I love a nice hay bear.
Yeah.
Hay bear.
A lady that gave me candy
wrote a note
and it said hay bear.
Yeah.
To me.
I like hay bear.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Hmm.
Could be good.
Is hello folks,
I mean,
like when it's,
yeah,
it's like hay bear so you know
because i do hello folks and i do let's go folks when we start the podcast yeah maybe let's go
bears yeah uh jay color uh hey bear yeah hey bear just gotta pop in whenever yeah hey bear feels
like it's one that uh it pops in we were doing it on the trip, and they're very funny to pop in.
Hey, bear.
Yeah.
They're just throwing in a nice hey, bear out of nowhere.
Yeah.
And if you're hiking and you do a hey, bear, and someone gives you a hello, folks, back,
then you know what's happening.
That's, yeah.
You know what's going on.
Yeah.
Hello, folks.
Yeah.
Hey, bear.
Hey, that is a pretty, even let's go for like it is funny someone goes
hello folks hey bear and then see yeah yeah because then people will be very confused
on that that could be it could it y'all can you know i like it i like the you know i like the
last i like people you know i'll talk to harper Harper. We were talking about hello folks and let's go folks.
And I was like, what are you?
And she said she thinks she's more let's go folks.
But I like that there is a hello folks and let's go.
Like there is a, it is like, you know, I met someone in Paso.
And they were, you know, fewer hello folks.
And then one's like, I'm a let's go.
And it is like, you're like, you kind of get who the person is.
Yeah.
And I do like that.
I do like Hey Bear.
Hey Bear.
All right.
Hello, folks, and Hey Bear.
I like Hey Bear now.
I got Hey Bear all weekend for people.
It's fun.
Hey Bear is great.
It's like it is the good room.
I think someone said it in the comments it's the best
response the let's go folks like hey if you say hello folks you go hey bear because it's such an
opposite that it does so i i agree i guess if we take a vote the vote was hey bear i've been
getting some hey bear too and i think i like when like if uh if a lady says hey bear to me i'm like
my wife is gonna be upset about yes like people come up they go hey bear and i'm think i like when like if a if a lady says hey bear to me i'm like my wife is going
to be upset about yes like people come up they go hey bear and i'm like i don't know if that's okay
it sounds like you're already in another relationship so much that y'all have dick
names for each other right she's like it can't even be like oh did y'all just meet you're like
we've been dating for five to six years and she she calls me bear, and I go, hey, bear.
Well, as far as bear attacks, it basically said don't do what you suggested.
Don't try to run from the bear.
Grizzly bear, that is.
Because no one's trying it.
They said they can run as fast as a horse.
Wow. And they'll catch you.
It doesn't matter.
It's the...
It's the juice.
Hey, bear. Shake and bake. Barry Sanders could evade a grizzly bear. Yeah. It doesn't matter. It's the... It's the juice in the doubt.
Shake and bake.
Barry Sanders could evade a grizzly bear.
Yeah, I bet so.
I bet Barry Sanders could tackle a grizzly bear.
Well, he's a running back.
Now, if you get...
But you tell me, though, he couldn't tackle it?
You tell me Barry Sanders couldn't tackle it?
Come on.
Come on.
You sound like a guy...
I feel like you slurred that, too.
I did. You sound like an old, drunk like you slurred that sounded like an old drunk dusty
and you're like dusty i got are you driving
did you Very sad. You're going to look me in the face.
You sound occasion.
Right now in the face, you're going to look me in the eyes, face, and say,
Best son, best son, can I take a good beer?
Best son, can I take a good beer?
Is that what you're going to tell me right now?
All right, Dusty.
All right, bud.
This guy, something's wrong with him
uh supposedly i don't know for sure but someone told me afterwards
that i think that it could have been a fight that broke out you know i got a email this morning
from someone who said was it the late show yeah they apologized because they said his wife, her hair, I guess, was hanging over the seat, the guy behind him.
And the guy put his knee on her hair to pin it against the chair.
Yeah.
And they got into a, not a fist fight, but they got in a big argument.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's what I heard.
So I sat in the second show.
I watched the whole thing.
It was awesome to just sit in the crowd and watch.
And I had a real out-of-character moment.
The guy in front of me, every joke you did, he would turn to his side and be like, I would do that.
Yeah.
Like relating to all your jokes, but in an annoying way.
Yeah.
And I had a really out-of-character moment.
I leaned forward.
I grabbed the dude on the shoulder, and I go, enough.
Whoa.
Wow. Maybe that's what you heard
maybe that it felt awesome did his wife have long hair yeah erin is this what we're getting to it
was you i said enough dude and then i leaned back and i thought about the whole show you know yeah
right when the show ended i go hey sorry about that man he was like no it's fine i told you
arizona's wild it's too hot it's just too hot out there
there's not enough humidity you need some but i've never confronted anybody in a moment like
that do you think that guy even knew what you meant by enough i don't think i know he heard
the tone of my voice he knew what was going on he knew he was misbehaving so he's relating to
nate's comedy and having a good time and you told him to stop. But, you know,
thousands of other people were doing that without
conversing about it right after
the joke. We needed you
in the audience of the shows we did
in Arizona. Yeah, probably.
I would like, I had Aaron walk around just
if people
laughed too loud, not high
enough, he just
he would just keep them
kind of at bay
if they weren't really laughing
he's like
not enough
not enough
not enough
up up up
and then if they
and if they start laughing
too loud
I go what do we do
Aaron just grabs his shoulder
hey what do we do
and if their hair was too long
he would just pin it
to the chair
yeah
why don't we throw our trash
to Saturn
I've always said that
or they throw it to,
yeah.
You know what I mean?
Start shipping the trash off.
Yeah,
we got.
Haul it to outer space?
Yeah.
And send it to one of these garbage planets
that nothing,
what does it matter?
That's what I'm saying.
It's just like,
you just gotta,
everything's gonna burn up
and then become a ring.
So you just start like launching
all your people magazines up there. No, it is. It is a bad idea. If they can find a way to do it, cost a fish. So you just start launching all your people magazines up there.
No, it is.
It is a bad idea.
If they can find a way to do it cost-officially.
Yeah, sure, someday.
Yeah, the cost is we're making the cost up.
So it's like...
Yeah, just do it.
Yeah, just do it.
I mean, we're not calling another planet to ask for money for...
But first we need to take our trash to the moon.
Well, every time we launch a rocket, take a little trash.
Yeah.
Go, hey, you're already up there.
Yeah.
Do you think it's ethical to just launch space out into the abyss,
launch trash into the abyss?
Well, I mean, you got Saturn.
That's not what's the point of it.
Target it and shoot it right into Saturn so it just burns up.
Yeah, I mean, there's no point to, you know.
Just an empty vacuum up there, right?
Yeah.
If the aliens come and go, hey, you guys been the ones dumping all this trash out here?
Yeah.
And then we'll go, honestly, we didn't know you were out there.
Yeah.
They'll understand.
Yeah.
Have an ongoing argument.
I think that if ants were as intelligent as humans on average,
on average, that the ants would be able to take over humans and kill them all.
There are 2.5 million ants per one human, and they are strong.
My son disagrees that humans would be able to take them out.
What do you think?
I think humans still win.
I don't know.
Two and a half million to one?
Yeah.
Your entire body.
I mean, like, that means, let's say it takes, I don't even know if it would take half a million to cover your whole body.
How many do you think it would take?
Just say if it's 500,000 ants covers your entire body, like they could crawl in your body.
That means it's out of every human.
There's four kind of things that go.
Well,
I guess it depends like where,
where are we starting from?
Did the ants where they're at right now?
And then all of a sudden they get smart because we already got chemicals.
Right.
So if the war just began,
we could just start killing them yeah just
massive everybody kill all the ants yeah well what does it mean for them to have human intelligence
can they all of a sudden talk like human beings and communicate with each other i think it's like
a father and son having fun and y'all are not and that's a part of it uh i just think if
we were like all right we're at war with the ants you believe in the human spirit yeah we
gotta turn it up and we gotta go awol on these i don't know now the only
without leave we You have to.
We got to go wild on these ants.
I just don't think you would ever know where they're at.
I don't think you'd ever know where they're at.
It'd be hard to.
They get underground.
They can just hide, and then they can be planted.
The other thing is, too, you could go to the water.
You'd go to the ocean.
But then if they get on your boat, it's bad news. But you you would go to the ocean i guess you'd have to get out on water but i think you're saving
grace if your human being is these ant colonies are not going to be there's no central organization
with the ants these colonies are going to be acting independently because they have no way
to communicate with each other so an ant colony in india is not going to communicate with a fire
ant colony in alabama right so they with a fire ant colony in Alabama, right?
So they're just going to be these sort of independent groups moving around trying to take out humans.
We have the power of communication with each other.
We can coordinate.
We can combine our efforts.
I like our chances.
I mean, there's just two and a half million to one.
I mean, do the math on that.
How many people are on Earth?
It's just past eight billion, right?
So do eight billion, and then what's times 2.5 million?
I have it here.
It's like 40 quadrillion or something.
I mean.
But where are they dispersed across the globe?
But you can pour gas into an anthill and then light it.
20 quadrillion.
They're all gone.
It's a number that's unimaginable.
Yeah.
We can relocate to an island.
These ants can't swim across water.
8 million people can't go to an island.
What about anteaters?
We would train anteaters, and they would be on our team.
There you go.
This is like Infinity War and Avengers,
but there were so many of those creatures that they overtook us, remember?
But anteaters would be on our side.
I think it just never stops.
It's just the sheer numbers for
you is that that seems to be the thing holding you back well 20 quadrillion is not is it's not
even a number it's like it's so much that it's not even and it's just the sheer force i mean
just think if you had to fight two and a half million ants yeah could you beat two and a half
million ants i could in a room with all the resources of the U.S. government? Yeah, I think I could. No, no. It's got to be.
I'm breaking it down just one-on-one.
Okay.
You in a room with two and a half million ants.
I'll fix the room.
It also depends on the type of ants.
Airplane hanger, I hope.
If it's these little sugar ants, easy.
I win.
But if it's army ants.
Fire ants.
Like the army ants that you see in the jungles in Africa.
I mean, they will tear you up.
Now, those are the ones that are scary.
Spectracide would be the front line of defense.
Yeah, ants can't hide from spectracide.
Do you think you'd get drafted?
Yeah, I think so.
I think you'd be a general.
You're talking about these kind of ants right here with these pinchers on them?
Yeah, I mean, now those.
These are terrifying.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I mean, I've seen them tear apart animals on National Geographic.
But just imagine if this thing had hopes and dreams and aspirations-
Yeah, I know.
And ambition.
But I think the ants would get jealous of each other.
And they would be like, well, the army ants are really taking over.
And I don't like that.
There's going to be some internal issues with these ants.
Yeah.
Yeah, but you're acting like we're doing just, just in general, great job as a country.
We're holding this together better than these ants are.
We're a mess right now.
The ants are loyal.
You think ants are sitting around having this discussion right now?
I think there's loyalty.
I think there's loyalty between ants.
I think push comes to shove.
There's loyalty among humans, too.
I have to believe that.
Right now, we're not faced with the ant war.
Somebody comes on the news tomorrow and goes, the ants have risen up.
They're smarter than us.
We don't care about aliens.
There's not 20 quadrillion aliens on the planet.
We don't know.
There's a lot of big space out there.
It's true.
And we started throwing trash at them.
That's a good point.
I think we could take the ants.
Yeah.
You think you could beat two and a half million ants?
I think so. I say no. Sugar ants? The you could beat two and a half million ants? I think so.
I say no.
Sugar ants?
The sheer number would just overdo it.
They're as smart.
Anything that you can think of, they can think of.
So just remember that.
I would say give me-
So they could figure out talking or they could figure out-
I think 25 to 30 smart ants would take me out.
25 to 30?
Do I get a weapon?
They would take my gun.
They would pistol whip me. 25 to 30. Do I get a weapon? They would take my gun. They would pistol whip me.
25 to 30.
Yeah.
I will take the emu side.
So we can't just have this dominant.
So who wants to?
I'm comfortable taking the emu side.
Who wants to take the lion side?
Bates? I'm going lion to the zero chance. I'll jump on emu. uh who wants to take the lion side baits i'm going lion to the zero chance i'll jump on emu all right i'll jump on emu here so we we i like this you get to get talked into you get to
get talked into five interesting facts about emus uh i think whose feathers cannot cannot be so soft. That's not a good strong.
I mean, who wrote the sentence, the emu?
An emu's feather cannot.
Can you just read it?
An emu's feathers.
I thought it said father at first.
That's probably true, too.
An emu's father cannot be so soft, so they grow up in hard times.
Right, a chip on the shoulder. They grow up in hard times. It can't be soft, but it cannot be, too. An emu's father cannot be so soft, so they grow up in hard times. Right, a chip on the shoulder. They grow up in hard times.
A lion.
It can be soft, but it cannot be, too.
An emu has been through it.
A lion is like, you're the rich kid.
Right.
That just.
And they're very family-oriented.
They got nuclear families.
They all stay together.
Yes.
The lion grew up, no problems.
No problems.
No hardships.
No hardships.
An emu, out of the womb, he's fighting, he's scrapping.
Oh, yeah.
And his feathers, the way this emu wrote this,
they also can be soft, but they also cannot be so soft.
Right.
It's not always so soft.
He said, listen, sometimes it is, but not all the time.
Emus have the strongest legs.
That's enormous.
Yeah.
Strongest legs.
Big legs.
Does not say, I don't know what it compares to.
There's no comparison.
Compared to an ostrich.
Yeah.
Compared to the other birds.
But it has, so I'm assuming the strongest legs of anything and everything.
So the kicking power is wild.
The running power.
That's going to translate to speed.
Run it away.
I mean, there's part of me that's going,
a lion's going to go into this pretty cocky,
and an emu is going to just light it up.
This thing squats more than an elephant here.
Like, this is like the piranha.
Like, emu feels like a piranha.
Like, it's just like a velociraptor.
Yes.
A velociraptor
beat a T-Rex.
Yeah.
So,
when we had this bracket,
you would say
there's no way.
Where?
Yeah.
In Jurassic Park.
I don't know.
The movie.
It did?
Yeah.
One on one?
At the end,
it beats the one.
Well,
then they fight at the end,
but yeah,
I think it does at the end. I don't know if Well, then they fight at the end, but yeah, I think it does at the end.
I don't know if it does, but I think it did.
T-Rexes.
Yeah, I guess they do.
The Raptor is just like, it's just all over.
Like when something's so big, that's like when Royce Gracie used to fight
in old MMA stuff and he'd fight like a big sumo guy.
It's like that gets so tired.
But we just had a debate about a polar bear possibly losing to a Siberian tiger,
but now an emu beats a lion.
Well, we're taking the – I'm trying to make it fun.
You got to have some upsets here.
Yeah, you got to have some upsets.
I think this is – because this just happened in the tournament this year.
The one seed comes in.
Yeah.
And,
you know,
if they sleep,
if they take it for granted,
they're going to go down.
Give me those other facts
of the email.
Let me read the rest of it.
Let's play the fight out.
Let's play the fight out.
I just want to finish
the facts.
They get more fun.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I was reading them
for some reason
that prompted you
to go to a different page.
Well, they started to get bad. I said, that's why i want you to keep reading yeah emus have a pouch
in their throat for communication now this is trash talk i'd imagine some kind of like
maybe walkie-talkie maybe the first next tell yeah yeah uh they have a pouch in their throat
for communicating
like they don't even
waste their time for
what do they put
in that pouch
their phone
you know what it could
put in that pouch
a weapon
right
so now
this emu
cause it
look at it
you think it's playing
by the rules
no
there's no playing
by the rules
that's cheating
it's an emu cheats
that anything can happen so I's an emu cheats.
Anything can happen.
So I think an emu has now got probably a gun.
Right, right. We're going to go ahead and say it.
The emu brought a gun into this fight.
The emu is armed.
The emu does have a gun.
So the emu gets a gun.
Because it has a pouch and it can hide it,
and we did not check the pouch because we didn't know they had a pouch.
Where's a lion putting a gun?
Here's the problem.
Emus don't have arms, so how's he going to shoot it?
It does it anyway.
It's automatic.
So look, look at this situation.
Here's what I'm saying.
The emu, because when you frisk, look at it.
You frisk something, you don't ever frisk someone's throat.
That's true.
So why would you frisk?
We would be so busy in the feathers, and we don't
know that he's got... Which cannot be so soft.
Yeah, that we go like,
I cannot believe how not soft this is.
You might even cut yourself trying to get the gun out of there.
And you're just like shaking it,
and just like some dust. It looks like you're shaking
a, you know, dust is flying out.
And you're like, I don't think he's good.
And we don't even know that in his throat
he has a gun.
What appliance do you think has the longest lifespan?
Name brand or actual like.
No, just the actual appliance.
Appliance.
I'm going to go.
I don't know if anybody thought he was thinking name brand.
But I mean, out of all.
There's, I mean, I just said, I mean, there's so many people
listening to this podcast,
and I would think you were the only one...
It could be.
...that thought...
Were you going to say Maytag?
No, I don't know.
I would say Maytag.
You know, like LG or...
Yeah.
You know, something like that.
I like a good LG appliance.
Same song.
I would say toaster.
A toaster feels fragile to me.
Doesn't it?
I was kind of thinking a toaster, too.
Here's my microwave.
Well, let's ask this, though.
Is it of all time or things they're creating today?
I think today.
I think today.
What are you talking about?
Well, things used to last longer. Are we talking about cotton gins? I are you talking about? Well, things used to last longer.
Are we talking about cotton gins?
I mean, we're talking about stuff that used to last longer.
Look, we've got a first-time listener here, Dusty.
Pretty basic stuff we talk about.
No one's getting in the weeds of this.
In my head, I was thinking toaster just because that's all I can think of is toaster.
I've never heard of a microwave on the fritz. I've never heard of a toaster but i've never heard of a of a microwave on the fritz i've never heard of a
toaster going you know but i think you lose you lose a toaster you misplace it like you
but now you're getting it we're not talking to you're not we're not talking about like
you move and you don't you lost the toaster you buy a house and you get microwaves usually in a
house that's what i'm saying it's one's just left over i know microwaves usually in a house. That's what I'm saying. One's just left over.
I know.
Microwaves, there's a lot more to it.
A toaster, there's not much to it.
Yeah, you're proving my point.
I think it's a microwave.
All right.
What is it?
Dishwasher.
Really?
That can't be true.
I don't believe it.
I don't believe it.
I feel like dishwashers are what get replaced the most.
The average woman lives to be 80.
Boom!
Yeah.
You ever use a toilet with the padded seats?
Yeah.
I don't care for it.
I don't like it either.
I always...
Do you like it?
I didn't mind it.
It's probably nice to...
If it's your own home.
It's like a boat.
Yeah.
If somebody else has got one, great.
Yeah.
But if you got to deal with the upkeep, I bet it's not fun.
What's the upkeep?
Yeah, what's going on?
I mean, I imagine it's...
I mean, you got to wait a couple of days for it to get back to form.
Memory foam.
You got to fluff it.
It's a big thing.
It's all bent out of shape.
Lucy's like, Aaron, I know who's been in here.
Told you to use the other bathroom.
It's got an air pump.
But I did it to Harrison Butker, who is the kicker for the Chiefs,
and he went to Georgia Tech.
So I was like, dude, tough miss.
Go Jackets.
And then I was like.
You got like a trid going.
Tough miss.
Yeah.
Or something like that.
Go Jackets.
It's funny, actually, that not to.
No, because I was like, that's the connection I have.
But I didn't even go there.
He's like, my brother's got, but I didn't even go there. My brothers got in,
I didn't get in. That's how I have to do
every veiny thing. I didn't go there.
Go Jackets.
Did you say
Jacks or Jackets?
Go Jackets is brutal.
Is it the golden jackets?
The yellow jackets.? Jackets. Go jackets is brutal. Is it the golden jackets? The yellow jackets.
The yellow jackets.
Yeah, go jackets.
Do y'all say go jackets?
Oh, yeah, we say go jackets.
Yeah.
Go jacket.
Tough miss.
Go jackets.
Let me see what I actually got, too.
He doesn't even know what's going on.
What'd you say?
No.
Sorry.
Dylan Lee.
Yeah.
Plays for the Braves.
October 30th.
This must have been the World Series.
Yeah.
No shame in that start, my man.
Proud of you, bro.
You ever met him before?
No shame in that start. Hold on. My man. i think it's worse oh no that was october 30th 2021 he
responds august 16th 2022 just saw this message thank you from a game a year ago
he goes what are we doing october 30th. You got to remember.
He goes, man, that's my aunt's birthday.
Oh, World Series.
This lunatic.
He goes, no shame in that start.
Love you, brother.
He goes, I don't even know who this guy is.
He's got to reply to it.
I'm crying.
Because of the blue check mark, he has to go. I guess I got to respond i'm crying because of the blue check mark he has to go
i guess i gotta respond back to the don't ever forget where he came from
i remember that specifically because it was a bullpen start we only have three starters
so like we had a bullpen game and they were
like, I guess we're starting
Dylan Lee. No shame in that.
Who shouldn't
be out there. No shame in that, brother.
No shame in that, brother.
Love, you're proud.
You're making me proud.
You're making us proud. Go Jackets!
Couldn't be prouder.
Brian told a story, and I'm sure you'll tell it,
but just to preface it, we were telling the worst joke you've ever told.
Or heard from someone else.
Yeah, but Brian's was about his own joke.
It's about something you maybe took pride in at the time,
but now looking back, it's really cringy or whatever.
Now, Brian, set the seed for this.
This is so funny.
Well, I don't even know if I completely remember the joke, but it was something about when I was single, I would ask, are there any single ladies here?
And then maybe one, whatever.
And I say, oh, I met shingle ladies.
We have any shingle ladies here?
We're shingle ladies. We have shingle ladies here. With shingles.
And I told that joke for a while.
Was it closer?
Is that the whole joke?
Yes.
I meant shingles ladies.
Oh, and he said the part ladies with shingles.
I mean the disease shingles.
I wanted to clarify.
Yeah, that was one of my go shingles. I wanted to clarify. Yeah,
that was one of my go-tos when I first started out.
Oh,
that's the worst
I've ever heard.
There's no more to it?
I mean,
that's the part I remember.
At this point,
Aaron had got up
from the table,
so.
I couldn't just imagine
a tribe doing that.
Oh,
I mean,
shingles,
ladies.
Huh?
You get it?
That's when I first started. There's one of my go-tos. Hey, I thought itingles, ladies. Huh? You get it? That's when I first started.
There's one of my go-to.
Hey, I thought it was honesty time here.
Yeah.
Sometimes all you need is to set it aside as a comic and then you can revisit it.
Yeah, I want you to bring that joke back.
Dust it off a bit.
Yeah, go any, I mean shingles, ladies.
I'm married, okay?
I'm not looking for the single women.
Oh, there you go.
It's a different spin on it now.
Yeah, tell them why you're looking for ladies with shingles.
Because, you know, you're like, I want my daughter to get chicken box.
You know what I mean?
Come on to the house.
Now we've got a great punchline.
It's actually a good bit.
Fix the joke, Dustin.
Brian's going to open his third dry bar special with it.
Yeah, I mean, that's a good dry bar special with it. Yeah.
I mean, I like that bed.
I like it.
Yeah.
We know the name of my next dry bar special.
Shingle Lace.
Question mark.
All the Shingle Lace.
Yeah.
If you liked it, you should have put some cream on it.
Show me how to read.
When I first started reading, it was i was like looking right
at the camera just being like oh the other day i went to the you know and you just like you can
tell that you're reading and it's more of like you kind of you look and you kind of grab the line
so you would you know you kind of just like it's like nate bargett's a good problem to have poster
behind you know you just kind of like grab it then you're like good problem to have poster behind. You just kind of like grab it, and you're like, good problem to have.
And then it's a Beeman lobby.
And maybe I grab it there, and I say it there,
and then I kind of grab it back there.
That's what I was trying to do with that George Washington sketch
is there's cue cards.
I mean, there's, I think, four sets of them,
and they're just all like here, here.
Wally, the cue card. I mean, all the cue card people, but he was, I mean, he would be really good.
Let me tell you one, in the airplane sketch, where when Heidi stands up and says, I'm the most important job of all, I, you know, and I go, what do you do?
And she says, I'm a mother.
I forgot the what do you do line.
And so I'm just standing there there and there's a weird pause.
And if you know it and it's so great,
the wall,
he's holding it and he sees me and I'm just,
I'm like sitting here,
like waiting for her to do it.
And then he goes in like points at the line and I go,
what do you do?
And then I say it.
If you had to go undercover and do any professional sport,
like you're investigating something,
which sport do you think
you could best
fake your way through?
Yeah, did I get asked this?
We may have talked about this
a long time ago, but...
Basketball.
Basketball?
Yeah.
My NBA?
Oh, like if I had to...
Yeah, professionally
is what the question was.
If you had to blend in
and people think you're... And the team knows you're in on it. Yeah, professionally is what the question was. You had to blend in and people think you're.
And the team knows you're in on it.
Yeah.
Basketball.
And Brian said soccer.
And then somehow that was less ridiculous than me saying a swimmer.
Well, I'll tell you why.
The podcast erupted and Brian called me 5'3".
I could maybe do swimmer.
Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
Well, I could swim fast. I could swim. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. Well, I could swim fast.
I could swim fast, too.
That's what I'm saying.
My understanding was the question was not about your actual performance, but how you could blend in.
Nobody would look at the two of you.
No offense.
You're both doing very well in life.
No one will look at the two of you and think, that's a swimmer.
Until they saw us swim.
I guess it's like, what could you...
You couldn't make your high school basketball team.
Now you're playing the NBA?
Well, I was thinking athletically, I can dribble to my legs.
I picture warm-up, I could do some layups where you would not notice me.
You just wouldn't notice me.
But I guess if I'm on a pro team and everybody's super tall, then you might...
Who's the 5'11 white you might be such a physical difference.
Yeah, and you see me, you make me wear a jersey.
The jersey's not going to be flattering for me.
Oh, God.
You have the T-shirt on.
Yeah, I have the T-shirt on.
I have a hoodie on underneath it.
I have to put just the layers.
That guy's got it. He's got a lot going on. You're like, yeah, yeah. I'm going to put just the layers. That guy's got it.
He's got a lot going on.
You're like, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, I would play.
You know when you see Kobe rub his chest on the inside?
I would just be doing that all the time, covering my chest up.
I mean, somebody last week said I could be the middle guy in the bobsled.
Yeah.
Just got to get in there.
Get in there and lay down.
You'd be, why is the middle guy already in there?
They're pushing me.
Why is there one guy already in the bobsled?
They go, no, don't worry about it.
It's not, we're doing it.
We're doing it different this year.
Let's walk into NASA and go,
listen, we're shutting it down.
All of you, now focus on the
oceans. You're now called NOSO.
Yeah, you're going to focus inwardly.
Inwardly.
National Ocean, what is NASA?
National Ocean Space
Organization.
Yeah, ocean space.
I like that.
NOSA.
NOSA.
National Ocean Space.
National Ocean Space.
Ocean Space.
Ocean Space.
Yes.
No space.
We got rid of space.
Well, it's like the ocean, the space of ocean.
What does A stand for?
Ocean stuff.
Ocean stuff.
Yeah, ocean stuff.
National Ocean Stuff Association.
NOSA.
NOSA.
No so.
You go.
Organization.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But not organization.
We just do National Ocean Stuff Ocean.
And you say ocean again.
NOSA.
Because then.
Really hammering home.
Because once you get to the ocean stuff.
Yeah.
Once you get to the ocean stuff, then everybody goes, well, something space has got to come out.
And you go, no, ocean again.
We're doubling down.
We only do ocean stuff.
So I was at, my wife and I toured a daycare today and didn't, you know, seem okay.
Didn't know a lot about it.
Then I go to.
For who?
He's back, baby.
For my daughter.
And then I'm at the grocery store and there's a car there with a bumper sticker for that daycare.
So I thought, man, I'd love to see this person.
Just ask them some thoughts on this.
Mike, what's the problem?
Did you wait for them?
As I was coming out, don't get ahead of me.
As I was coming out of Kroger, sure enough, there's a woman getting in that car.
And I thought, I'm going to go over there and ask her about this daycare.
But I want it to look natural. Like I just happened to be walking by and Hey, I know this, whatever.
Did you grab a cart, an empty cart?
I had bags in my hand.
She gets in the car a little bit faster than I anticipated.
So it was kind of far away, but I don't want to yell, but she sees me.
So I don't want to just stop and like turn around because then it would look like i was coming after her so i keep walking just like
i'm going to my car and i'm like well as soon as she pulls out leave i'll turn around and go back
to my car but she doesn't pull out immediately so i have to keep walking and pretending with my
bags like i'm going to my car yeah and I had- And have you passed her car?
I've passed her. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And I keep looking back and she's still sitting there. So
I have to keep pretending like I'm walking in my car, walking through the Kroger parking lot.
And she doesn't leave. Eventually, I'm going to be late for this podcast if I don't
get out of here. So I eventually had to just like turn around and then kind of make a circle around her like I lost my car.
It was about a 15 minute extra experience.
So you walk by her.
Yeah.
Cars to your right.
You walk past her.
And then you had to cut through the cars and then start walking down to the front of her car, down the middle.
Well, I didn't come right back to her.
I kind of circled around like, where's my car?
And then,
so you make a circle
or actually circle her
and then you talk to her?
No, no, no, no.
Oh.
No, no.
I mean,
at this point,
I was just trying not
to be conspicuous,
but,
you know,
it kind of drug out
longer than I thought.
Yeah.
I think it's a good message
to people.
That's why you don't put
bumper stickers on your car
is you got,
you got these kind of people that are going to come up.
And, you know, a grandfather is like, we're thinking about taking my baby to that daycare.
And she's like, what?
She goes, you have a baby?
He goes, that's what they think.
You know that lady that's probably 28 years old?
She's exactly the age you would have a baby in.
And this old man that's got his milk and bread.
Excuse me.
Is there a lot of kids in that daycare?
What's the age group?
You need to get away.
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 we're gonna start recording now right i call into
this radio station it's 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.
She goes, I answer 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 dayton for sure and she goes oh my god i'm so sorry are you okay
i go 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
goes and that was comedian aaron weber and i was like oh my gosh dude and then the call and then
the call ends like it hangs up and i I was like, if anybody heard that,
Oh no.
They were like,
what type of comedy does this guy do?
He just complains about his life.
Yeah.
And then last week I went to the Preds game and I got to do a couple of
things.
I did a little interview with ballet sports and then I got to wind the,
the,
the wrong direction. The fan. Well, well, i'll tell you the lady goes i go which way i go she goes either way you go it will make the sound and i go okay and she
goes but it's going to take a couple you know to catch catch on so i'm winding and then it's never
catching so i just on my own go you know what i'm switching directions and then i and then it's never catching. So I just on my own go, you know what, I'm switching directions.
And then I got it going.
Is that actually making the noise?
It is.
They hold the microphone up to it.
Oh, okay.
But as you can see,
if you look around at the fans and the audience while I'm doing it,
nobody cares.
They're not getting fired up.
Look how red your face is.
I know.
I think a little bit of that
is that screen like that because other people's face look pretty red your face is i know i think a little bit of that is the is that that screen
like that because other people's face look pretty red back there too but man i mean it's like you
come up for air mine is so red but but look at that girl back here i mean her face is so red
yeah but look at yours i think she's black
but look i mean yeah my face is super red.
I mean, dang.
I mean, I get it.
I'm working.
Listen.
But look at her face back there.
I mean, come on.
Put the mouse.
What face is he talking about?
This guy.
Yeah, but that girl's got makeup on.
Yeah.
That's what I'm saying.
The screen is changing our faces.
She's not a clown.
She didn't wear red makeup.
I mean, yours is.
Yeah, but I'm working here, too.
I mean, listen, I got a special called Working Man.
I can't be not working that thing out there.
I mean, come on, guys.
Yeah, my face is a little red, but I'm working it.
These people are just standing around.
Oh, that's great.
Yeah, I saw the tweet of you just sitting at the desk.
I was like, we got Dusty analyzing hockey out here?
Well, they didn't ask me any hockey questions.
I wish they would have.
He's like, you know they got guys skating under four seconds.
Would you ever say something about hockey?
Well, no.
I did say that I'm just amazed people can even skate, much less skate and hit the smallest, other than golf, the smallest ball, if you will.
Yeah, my face is – that's like – look how red that is.
That's crazy.
That's what I'm saying.
There's no way my face is that red come on guys
that's yeah but no one else's face is red but this this girl back there's red i mean not like
that like i mean you look like a different person yeah but i mean if my face is that red i'm stroking
out out there well i mean you look like a minor they got under the ground they just brought him
up an hour ago and they said you you want to do the Preds thing?
He's been underground for a month.
I mean, I'm not denying it, but that can't be reality, though.
And he just saw the sun.
You look like, remember the wrestler Brother Love?
Yeah.
That's what you look like.
I know.
I mean, that's what I'm saying.
I'm just saying, it's got to be some effects of the screen.
Look at that thing.
What could the effects be?
I don't know.
I mean, because the other people around you
don't look like that.
But I, you know, if I look like that
and I'm walking around out there,
people will be like, you okay?
Well, I mean, right in that moment,
it's, yeah, you're tight.
I mean, it's intense.
I'm not denying it.
It's a wild red.
A little surprise, I think, for everybody listening.
We are here in Paducah, Kentucky.
I got to take these off.
We're at about, yeah, two-thirds of the solar eclipse.
I never heard about the eclipse before Laura asked me about it.
I didn't know that was happening.
Have you heard of an eclipse?
I saw the last one.
Not the Mitsubishi eclipse.
No.
Nice.
Eclipse the rapper.
All right.
Who's going to explain it?
Which one of the five of us is going to explain it scientifically?
You don't know what it is. You, it scientifically? You don't know what it is.
You, John, because you don't know what it is.
What is it?
Well, so this is the moon going in front of the sun.
So we're on Earth.
Start there.
Yeah.
I usually only do the moon behind the sun.
But when the moon...
That's usually when I go out.
But I thought if it's in the middle...
Yeah.
I do a moon behind the sun.
I do that every year.
One of them can't happen.
Yeah, how does that happen? Does the a moon behind the sun. I do that every year. One of them can't happen. How does that happen?
Does the moon go behind the sun?
The moon never just goes.
How big would that be if that happened?
That would be dead.
We'd be dead way before that.
Yeah, yeah.
There's just a little sliver of the sun still visible.
It looks like, well, it's dark.
If you look back that way, it's dark.
There's a plane.
So it was interesting to see.
There was a flight.
You think that's that Delta flight.
There was a Delta flight.
That might be it.
Could be.
There was a Delta flight.
People booked it to fly the path.
Everybody's on it to see the eclipse.
Aaron's trying to get to a week.
Is that Venus right there?
I think that is Venus.
That's Venus right there.
I see Venus all the time. Are you guys going no sunglasses now? on a Monday night show. Aaron's on the way back. I think that is Venus. That's Venus right there, yeah. No.
Yeah, yeah. I see Venus all the time.
It's one other place.
Are you guys going
no sunglasses now?
I'm going to run
to the bathroom real fast
and I'll be right back.
No, paint, paint.
Oh, you can see
the shape of the moon now.
Oh, man.
I mean, look at it.
It's crazy.
It's crazy.
And when it finally
gets fully dark.
If you're listening at home,
it's getting dark.
It's getting dark.
It's completely over. Can you get it with the camera? Wow. Oh, you got a camera. All right. There it is. man. If you're listening at home, it's getting dark. It's getting dark. It's completely over.
Can you get it with the camera?
Wow.
Oh, you got a camera.
All right.
There it is.
They know what they're doing.
It looks so close.
It looks insane.
Sunglasses on?
Glasses on?
I feel like it's going backwards.
Glasses up.
Oh, it's going the wrong direction.
Yeah.
I'll tell you what.
It felt like the sun did a...
That is...
I mean, the precision. Don't look at it. You can't don't look at you can't look at it anymore
don't look at it anymore with no but i looked at it before when it was like that man yeah you okay
i don't know when does it kick in the next day that's what they said the next day is i'll be
blind that is venus look venus i'm gonna see some stuff today man we saw venus yep
how about that and then it's just daytime again.
Wow.
Yeah.
That's pretty cool.
Yeah.
That's awesome, man.
Man, I believe it.
So this one.
You're already over it.
It's not done yet.
I mean, Aaron's got to call it 205.
It's barely a sliver, and you're still, you're just, you're through.
Guys got to get to that open mic.
Yeah.
Because, all right, you think, Aaron, in normal life right now,
you would be done pumping gas and then go in the store?
Like maybe you would have stayed at your truck just because you'd have been like,
look at that.
And then once it clicked, you'd go inside.
And then be frustrated that the guy's outside looking and you're not inside let's
go and so do you think you would eat the donuts you'd eat one pack and then go i'm not paying for
both these packs i'll pay for one pack i'll tell you what i'd already be back inside by now
oh yeah if i were just at home i go all right how do you gasp at the iPhone and then this?
Which one do you use more often?
The sun.
I know, but this is just, yeah.
Yeah, that's a good one. The sun is a great one.
Much more often.
Yeah, the sun's involved.
Yeah.
It's pretty.
Yeah, yeah.
It's just.
It is amazing.
I don't want to sound like I'm.
This is pretty cool right here.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That is amazing.
This is a weird.
Yeah.
This is not your normal dusk. Yeah... This is pretty cool right here. Yeah. Yeah. That is amazing. This is a weird... Yeah. This is not...
This is your normal dusk.
This is your favorite part of the eclipse.
Yeah.
I think so.
Yeah.
The wind down.
The guys being together.
Yeah.
I tell you what, we are on a football field.
We could all run a 40.
Where is the 40?
Right here?
Right here.
This is it.
I think I can do it.
No! I think I can do it. so
At the bottom, for 6.58 seconds is Aaron. Gah!
Gah!
Wow, dude.
6.58.
You know what?
It was this.
We all thought Aaron pulled the muscle.
Greg beat you. Greg's a D1 athlete. He's an All-American. That's true. I don't think it was this. We all thought Eric pulled a muscle. Greg beat you.
Greg's a D1 athlete, he's an All-American.
I don't think it's tight.
That was during the Cold War.
Coming in fourth, at an impressive 6.4 seconds, Brian.
Let's go!
Ridiculous.
At 6.27, it's John.
Golly.
If we did it all together, I would be fighting against John and we'll go faster.
Well, that sounds like a you problem.
Yeah.
If you can't motivate yourself running by yourself, then just get out the game.
Running in, runner up, 6.23 seconds
Hey!
No!
It seems rigged but the dad was the timer
I was the first one
