- 3:28SPEAKER_01: I love it.
- 3:29SPEAKER_01: And they have it, it's so dope.
- 3:31SPEAKER_01: They have it set up that when the tournament starts, there's five blue lights and five red lights.
- 3:37SPEAKER_01: And when a when a player loses, that light goes, and the first person to lose all their fighters loses the tournament.
- 3:43SPEAKER_01: And as Mortal Kombat goes, when the first one came out years ago, um, if one uh realm wins ten Mortal Kombat in a row, they control everything, and that was the tenth one.
- 3:57SPEAKER_01: And uh it was it it was good, man.
- 4:00SPEAKER_01: They set it up tournament style.
- 4:02SPEAKER_01: Nice.

- 4:06SPEAKER_01: Represented.

- 4:15SPEAKER_01: Oh, I I think they nailed it.
- 4:17SPEAKER_01: Um it it was it the first one was serious.
- 4:21SPEAKER_01: This one was a little more over-the-top Mortal Kombat funny, too.
- 4:26SPEAKER_01: Uh, and you remember the guy that played Kano killed it in that first.
- 4:29SPEAKER_01: Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 4:30SPEAKER_01: He's back.
- 4:30SPEAKER_01: Nice.
- 4:31SPEAKER_01: Um it's dude, I'm I'm gonna try to get you those those uh those logins so you can watch it because I'm pretty good.
- 4:41SPEAKER_01: Um, but yeah, that was kind of um, you know, as as I told you alluded to when we recorded last week's episode, Rihanna had took care of her aunt.
- 4:50SPEAKER_01: She came back, but then she had to leave out Friday again because she had one of her bigger book events this weekend.
- 4:56SPEAKER_01: Oh nice.
- 4:56SPEAKER_01: Uh she did say she ended up selling 12 books, so that's a fucking killer.
- 5:00SPEAKER_01: That's what I said on her birthday.
- 5:01SPEAKER_01: Yesterday was her birthday.
- 5:02SPEAKER_01: Oh, happy birthday to her.
- 5:04SPEAKER_01: Yeah, and she was there uh and she sold 12 books because she, you know, I I texted her happy birthday, and she said I'd sold four books, and it was around 130, somewhere around there.
- 5:15SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 5:15SPEAKER_01: And I was like, I'm guessing you're gonna get 10 to 15.
- 5:19SPEAKER_01: And she went, hopefully.
- 5:20SPEAKER_01: She goes, I'm I'm thinking I'll get around five.
- 5:22SPEAKER_01: And I was like, Well, you're almost there.
- 5:23SPEAKER_01: And yeah, she ended up with 12, so I was happy for her.
- 5:26SPEAKER_01: That's extra money.
- 5:27SPEAKER_01: Yeah, and you know, she she deserves, she's put a lot of time and effort into her writing, so she deserves that.
- 5:32SPEAKER_00: But and you guys you guys financed all that yourself pretty much, yeah.
- 5:36SPEAKER_01: So, real quick story on that.
- 5:38SPEAKER_01: Um, so originally she was gonna go through like a like not a main publisher, but kind of like um, I don't even know what you call it.
- 5:49SPEAKER_01: There's a word for it, but um we we paid them to to to help her, you know, distribute distribute and and produce it and all that shit.
- 5:58SPEAKER_01: And she would write it, send it to them, they'd mass produce it, ship it out.
- 6:01SPEAKER_01: Um, they did not hold up to their bargain.
- 6:03SPEAKER_01: And we played, we paid a pretty penny.
- 6:06SPEAKER_01: That's a shame.
- 6:06SPEAKER_01: Uh, and what she realized after that was she goes, I could have done all this on my own.
- 6:14SPEAKER_01: And uh and she was like, I'm you know, at the time she was like, I'm sorry that you know we spent this money when I could have just and I said, Look, you didn't know.
- 6:23SPEAKER_01: I said, You paid money for a learning experience.
- 6:25SPEAKER_01: Look at it as a class.
- 6:26SPEAKER_01: Exactly.
- 6:27SPEAKER_01: Um, you know, it it's fine, you know, we're financing your, you know, this is something you want to do, and you know, with the hopes that one day you can do that for a living.
- 6:36SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 6:37SPEAKER_01: So uh yeah.
- 6:39SPEAKER_01: Um, but what I was getting at is is, you know, so it's been a busy week for me, you know, because I've had to, you know, like obviously we share the responsibilities, but with her not there, you know, I had to do a little bit of a you're shouldering the hole.
- 6:52SPEAKER_01: Not that I mind or nothing, but you know, of course now with the podcast, it just makes it, you know, time has a little bit.
- 6:58SPEAKER_01: You know, I started like yesterday, uh, I needed to weed really bad.
- 7:03SPEAKER_01: Took me four different times because I'd only have like a half hour between tasks.
- 7:09SPEAKER_01: So I'd run out and hoping I don't get a dizzy spell.
- 7:12SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 7:12SPEAKER_01: But I would run out, I would pull some weeds, go back inside, finish task, um, go back outside, do it some more.
- 7:20SPEAKER_01: So I've just been really busy, but uh yeah.
- 7:24SPEAKER_01: Oh, and I showed you, but the doomsday trailer came out.
- 7:27SPEAKER_01: Uh that's I'm looking forward to that.
- 7:29SPEAKER_01: Nice.
- 7:30SPEAKER_01: Um anything else to report on?
- 7:33SPEAKER_01: Something piss you off this week you want to talk about?
- 7:36SPEAKER_00: Um not so much piss me off, but uh Friday was kind of nice.
- 7:41SPEAKER_00: I I worked, got off, uh I got off work early Friday.
- 7:45SPEAKER_00: Oh, that's nice.
- 7:46SPEAKER_00: Uh still finished with 40 hours.
- 7:47SPEAKER_00: So that tells you anything.
- 7:49SPEAKER_00: I got off like an hour and a half early and still finished with 40 hours.
- 7:52SPEAKER_02: Oh wow.
- 7:53SPEAKER_00: Um but I got home and my wife was like, Well, I'll mow the grass Friday.
- 7:56SPEAKER_00: I'm like, cool, I'd appreciate that.
- 7:58SPEAKER_00: You don't have to, but the last time the grass got mowed, I just I did the back because the back grows way faster than the front.
- 8:05SPEAKER_00: Uh the front gets less sunlight.
- 8:07SPEAKER_00: Yeah, actually, my front gets more sunlight, I believe.
- 8:10SPEAKER_00: Really?
- 8:10SPEAKER_00: That's weird.
- 8:10SPEAKER_00: It because it comes up over the trees and hits that side of that.
- 8:14SPEAKER_00: Now the backyard gets more sunlight throughout the day.
- 8:17SPEAKER_00: I don't know.
- 8:18SPEAKER_00: But she ended up doing the fr the the the front on top of the hill, like on top of the wall.
- 8:24SPEAKER_00: And she had gone down to like the front front yard that's right right by the street, and the hook, metal hook part that goes into the bar for the the stopping thing, emergency stop thing, it broke.
- 8:40SPEAKER_00: So she couldn't do anything, and she had texted me while I'm working, and I'm like, I'll fix it when I get home.
- 8:45SPEAKER_00: And I ended up having to take a pair of ice grips and click it down, and I I finished the yard that way, did the rest of the front, the driveway, the back, and then I weedied everything, and I'm like, man, I'm glad I got that done now.
- 8:58SPEAKER_00: Because it was supposed to rain yesterday, and it didn't rain yesterday.
- 9:01SPEAKER_00: It was supposed to rain for like the next ten days, and it's not even raining today.
- 9:04SPEAKER_00: Yeah, I don't know where it looks like it's going to now out there.
- 9:07SPEAKER_00: Yeah, I think we might get it today.
- 9:09SPEAKER_00: But I got all that done Friday, and we just kind of hung out, and we were watching TV, and I was watching I watched a couple of the Transformers movies because I didn't have anything better to do.
- 9:19SPEAKER_00: Yeah, and we were just, you know, bullshitting because again, I got rid of my cable because of the expense of it.
- 9:24SPEAKER_00: It's ridiculous.
- 9:25SPEAKER_00: It's yeah.
- 9:26SPEAKER_01: Well, and like I said, I I watched MK two.
- 9:30SPEAKER_01: Was it yesterday or Friday?
- 9:32SPEAKER_01: No, it had to be yesterday.
- 9:33SPEAKER_00: It was yesterday.
- 9:34SPEAKER_00: And then because I got all that done Friday, it afforded me the ability to kind of just kick around and do nothing yesterday on Saturday.
- 9:42SPEAKER_01: That's needed.
- 9:43SPEAKER_00: Man, it yeah.
- 9:46SPEAKER_00: I I I watched a little TV through streaming services.
- 9:50SPEAKER_00: I watched uh I I texted you about a documentary I was watching.
- 9:54SPEAKER_01: About Shawn Michaels.
- 9:54SPEAKER_00: Shawn Michaels, yeah, for all you wrestling lovers out there.
- 9:57SPEAKER_00: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 9:58SPEAKER_00: That was a that's a good one, man.
- 9:59SPEAKER_00: If you like Shawn Michaels.
- 10:01SPEAKER_00: You realize like how much of a piece of shit he was back in the day, and uh due to drugs and stuff like that, and then he he becomes born again, finds religion, cool.
- 10:13SPEAKER_00: As long as it works for you.
- 10:14SPEAKER_00: I don't have anything against it, whatever.
- 10:16SPEAKER_00: Uh and then last night I had my first bonfire of the year.
- 10:21SPEAKER_00: I haven't done it since last year.
- 10:22SPEAKER_00: That's right.
- 10:23SPEAKER_00: And I did awesome s'mores.
- 10:26SPEAKER_00: Yeah, I've seen that.
- 10:27SPEAKER_01: You gotta tell them your recipe because we through our love for cobra Kai, we learned from Sam that she makes samores.
- 10:35SPEAKER_01: Yeah, she makes them with peanut butter cups.
- 10:38SPEAKER_01: But you have it, you have a you you have one that I hadn't seen before.
- 10:41SPEAKER_01: When you sent me that picture, I was like, and then that got my mind going.
- 10:44SPEAKER_01: Like, what else could you use?
- 10:46SPEAKER_01: Yes.
- 10:47SPEAKER_00: So in lieu of graham crackers, and I actually left this up to uh to Maddie when we went to the store together.
- 10:55SPEAKER_00: I took her, I was like, You want to go?
- 10:56SPEAKER_00: She's like, Yeah, let's go.
- 10:58SPEAKER_00: Uh I was like, Do you want graham crackers?
- 11:00SPEAKER_00: Or do you want fudge stripe cookies?
- 11:04SPEAKER_00: And I will tell you this using fudge stripe cookies for s'mores, it'll change your life, bro.
- 11:11SPEAKER_01: I believe it.
- 11:12SPEAKER_01: I believe it.
- 11:13SPEAKER_01: You had sent me that, and I was like, man, I wish I'd have known I could have bring Ty, but and the time you sent me that, he was on the game with his buddies.
- 11:19SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 11:19SPEAKER_01: And it was already nine o'clock.
- 11:20SPEAKER_01: I mean, not that you live far, but right, I don't.
- 11:23SPEAKER_00: Um shit, we were out there till 11 last night.
- 11:25SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I he was playing with his buddies till like 9.30-ish.
- 11:31SPEAKER_01: That's not bad.
- 11:32SPEAKER_01: And then I hopped on with Jermaine for about an hour or so, because that's you know, that's when we get our Call of Duty time.
- 11:38SPEAKER_01: But yeah, man, that was that was good.
- 11:40SPEAKER_01: We have it just Riannon's been so busy with everything.
- 11:44SPEAKER_01: Like, we were supposed to get mulch this year, and fuck, it's almost August.
- 11:48SPEAKER_01: It's no point in it.
- 11:49SPEAKER_01: No, I'll do it next year.
- 11:50SPEAKER_01: I gotta do mine too.
- 11:51SPEAKER_01: I gotta do mine next year.
- 11:51SPEAKER_01: It's bad.
- 11:52SPEAKER_01: Yeah, so I figure I figure in the spring next year we'll spread it.
- 11:57SPEAKER_00: I got a lot of work.
- 11:58SPEAKER_00: I want to do um well, obviously, you've been to my house, you've seen the work I've done up front with the flower beds compared to what it was when I first moved in.
- 12:07SPEAKER_00: Right.
- 12:08SPEAKER_00: But we've got that one corner by the house that's like right around the corner from the deck, that's got that the stupid road lilies, the orange road lilies.
- 12:16SPEAKER_00: I hate those fucking things.
- 12:18SPEAKER_00: And next year we're talking about digging it all out over there in that corner, and we want to do a pond with a waterfall and then kind of build up around it and put like little flower, you know, things just to make it look nice, yeah.
- 12:30SPEAKER_00: Which it'll probably drive my property taxes up more.
- 12:33SPEAKER_00: It could.
- 12:34SPEAKER_00: So, but I mean, you know, you helped build the deck, so you know you know what it looks like.
- 12:39SPEAKER_00: Yep.
- 12:40SPEAKER_00: That and the shed.
- 12:43SPEAKER_00: The shed and the swing set.
- 12:45SPEAKER_00: Man, I'm glad I have friends.
- 12:46SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 12:47SPEAKER_00: Well, it was pretty much just you and me on the shed.
- 12:50SPEAKER_00: Yeah, yeah.
- 12:51SPEAKER_00: Well, and the deck.
- 12:52SPEAKER_00: I mean your dad was there.
- 12:53SPEAKER_00: Yeah, and dad was there, yeah.
- 12:54SPEAKER_01: But he was more of the foreman.
- 12:55SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 12:56SPEAKER_01: Until I left.
- 12:57SPEAKER_00: Yeah, then it was the heavy lifting.
- 12:58SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 12:59SPEAKER_00: And then it was me, you and Dave on the swing set years ago, you know.
- 13:02SPEAKER_01: Yeah, yeah.
- 13:03SPEAKER_01: Those are fun pictures.
- 13:04SPEAKER_01: Those were the pictures we threw up when we were what what episode was that?
- 13:09SPEAKER_01: It wasn't it wasn't used.
- 13:10SPEAKER_00: Behind the pod?
- 13:11SPEAKER_00: Was it behind the pod?
- 13:13SPEAKER_01: Bull sessions one?
- 13:14SPEAKER_01: One of those.
- 13:14SPEAKER_01: It was yeah, we were talking about.
- 13:17SPEAKER_01: Uh no.
- 13:18SPEAKER_01: It was the questions.
- 13:19SPEAKER_01: Oh, the questions.
- 13:20SPEAKER_01: Yeah, you did some of them.
- 13:21SPEAKER_01: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 13:22SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 13:22SPEAKER_01: It was I think it was the questions episode, but yeah, I mean, it's been a crazy week.
- 13:28SPEAKER_01: We we finally got rid of diarrhea, lettuce, and smoke inhalation.
- 13:31SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 13:31SPEAKER_01: Now there's salmonella eggs.
- 13:33SPEAKER_01: It's like what the fuck?
- 13:34SPEAKER_00: Oh, oh, and measles.
- 13:35SPEAKER_01: I saw that on the I saw that on the Those have been kind of like a case or two here for a couple years now, since it's starting to ramp up.
- 13:41SPEAKER_01: But again, you know, I know we don't talk it, but you know, there's been a lot of deregulation on how we do that.
- 13:50SPEAKER_01: And I'm sorry, like I understand people think we may put too much into it, but you know, there there's a direct correlation with a lot more of this happening and current people in their current positions and certain I'm just saying, I mean, regardless of what side of the fence you're on.
- 14:06SPEAKER_00: That that's one of the things.
- 14:07SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 14:08SPEAKER_00: But the other thing is, is these dumbass parents that go, I don't want my children to be vaccinated because it causes autism.
- 14:13SPEAKER_01: No, it doesn't.
- 14:14SPEAKER_00: Okay.
- 14:15SPEAKER_00: But the thing is, is that we've almost eradicated some of these things, and by choosing not to vaccinate your children, which we've all been, you know, our generation, we didn't have a choice.
- 14:23SPEAKER_00: It was like, you're getting this.
- 14:25SPEAKER_00: The military has to get it, or they can't serve.
- 14:27SPEAKER_00: So I don't worry about measles.
- 14:29SPEAKER_01: I don't worry about mumps.
- 14:31SPEAKER_01: My thing with that is Um off of one article done in the 70s.
- 14:42SPEAKER_01: Yes.
- 14:42SPEAKER_01: The whole causes autism that was found out to be there was no research proof put into it, nothing.
- 14:49SPEAKER_01: No correlation.
- 14:50SPEAKER_01: Correlation that this guy put together himself.
- 14:52SPEAKER_01: It's like, guys, uh let me put it to you like this.
- 14:57SPEAKER_01: If you think that the vaccines that we're getting is causing us autism, but you'll let your 15-year-old daughter go to Starbucks every morning and get this sugar.
- 15:06SPEAKER_01: Like, come on, guys.
- 15:07SPEAKER_01: Like priorities.
- 15:08SPEAKER_01: Like that's my thing.
- 15:10SPEAKER_01: Like, don't tell us what to do.
- 15:12SPEAKER_01: Well, and and and I'm not I don't really I really don't want to go there, but like though, with the whole COVID thing, what got me was is people were like, Well, this is a new vaccine, but it wasn't.
- 15:21SPEAKER_01: They had actually been developing it since the 90s.
- 15:23SPEAKER_01: Now they didn't have a lot of trials random, which I understand.
- 15:28SPEAKER_01: Yeah, but guys, we lost a lot of people there, and I don't know about everybody thought COVID was a joke.
- 15:35SPEAKER_01: Well, bro, I I lost my mentor to that fucking disease.
- 15:40SPEAKER_01: You did?
- 15:41SPEAKER_01: Um, so you can kiss my ass if you think.
- 15:44SPEAKER_01: Um, but anyways, I kind of want to get off of that topic.
- 15:47SPEAKER_01: You know, we had the two topics.
- 15:48SPEAKER_01: I said I just want to I'm very well I'm very passionate about them, and I know a lot of people don't agree with where I sit on them.
- 15:56SPEAKER_01: So I you know, I I was actually talking to Maureen, my my friend from from California, and I said, We're creating something for people to go to and laugh and get away from all the things.
- 16:06SPEAKER_01: Yeah, for sure.
- 16:07SPEAKER_01: So I don't want to but that's why we um but that's why these things are happening.
- 16:12SPEAKER_01: They pulled a lot of those regulations that we have on on vegetables and farming and shit like that, where the they go in and they really test it to keep those things from happening.
- 16:21SPEAKER_01: But guess what?
- 16:22SPEAKER_00: You know, um that's that's the one thing we uh we've kind of vowed not to talk about on here.
- 16:28SPEAKER_00: We don't really talk politics, we don't talk religion.
- 16:31SPEAKER_01: That those are the two because they're polarizing, and well, you know, we this will be the one time I talk about it.
- 16:39SPEAKER_01: Like I'll t I'll say it and then I won't mention it again.
- 16:42SPEAKER_01: Me and Bob do sit on different sides of the fence on both of those, but we're not the far sides, and we're not the extremes.
- 16:56SPEAKER_01: No.
- 16:56SPEAKER_01: Um and but what we also know is that like not everybody like i i it's too polarizing regardless.
- 17:06SPEAKER_01: Like me and you can sit and have a conversation about that.
- 17:08SPEAKER_01: Our listeners will not, but that's the difference.
- 17:11SPEAKER_00: We can have a conversation about it because we're mature adults, and we'll use that as an oxymoron because we're not, but well, I I think my problem is is is we don't we hear people, but we're not listening.
- 17:23SPEAKER_01: Yes, like we're so stuck in our ways, like you know, regardless, like just explain to me where you're coming from so I can understand.
- 17:32SPEAKER_01: Like, that's my thing.
- 17:33SPEAKER_01: Like, if you you feel how you feel, like right, 90% of us are influenced by our upbringing when it comes to those two things.
- 17:41SPEAKER_01: Yes, but you know, as long as we can have a functioning conversation and agree to disagree, then it's fine.
- 17:50SPEAKER_01: But the problem is though there's one other subject that I feel, and you'll laugh at it, that is just as polarizing, but does get talked to more, but it's more of a light-hearted faint, and that's sports.
- 18:03SPEAKER_01: Yeah, sports can cause that exact same type of reaction, but again, um, you know, we can have that conversation, but not everybody listening can.
- 18:14SPEAKER_01: You know, we we had our first negative comment on one of our videos.
- 18:18SPEAKER_01: EYS.
- 18:19SPEAKER_01: You know, the guy said he goes, Nobody's listening to a podcast that uses AI promos.
- 18:25SPEAKER_01: Well, guys, the only thing I've ever used AI on is images.
- 18:29SPEAKER_01: That's it.
- 18:30SPEAKER_01: I don't use it for nothing else, no videos, no nothing.
- 18:33SPEAKER_01: And the only reason I do that is because I don't have a graphics design degree and I don't have a graphics design program.
- 18:38SPEAKER_01: So if you don't like that, I apologize.
- 18:41SPEAKER_01: Um, if you know somebody that can design those things for us, yeah, by all means, and I can afford it, I will gladly pay them to do that.
- 18:48SPEAKER_01: But guess what?
- 18:49SPEAKER_01: I don't.
- 18:50SPEAKER_01: But did you but did you look at the page?
- 18:52SPEAKER_01: Did you look at oh of course I did?
- 18:54SPEAKER_01: What a fucking idiot, man.
- 18:56SPEAKER_01: As soon as I looked at his page, I was like, of course.
- 18:59SPEAKER_01: Yeah, and I may even make a clip of this to throw it out there and put it on that just so you know, because I'm that way rather than like because you seen what I commented back.
- 19:07SPEAKER_01: I did.
- 19:08SPEAKER_01: I said, I appreciate your honesty.
- 19:09SPEAKER_01: That was all I said.
- 19:10SPEAKER_01: Yeah, because you like you went off of a clip.
- 19:13SPEAKER_01: Yep, but you you I guarantee you've never listened to the podcast, you've never gone to the YouTube.
- 19:18SPEAKER_01: Nope.
- 19:18SPEAKER_01: You've seen my my my my social media post and was like, oh, let me shit on this guy.
- 19:23SPEAKER_01: Meanwhile, you fit the bill.
- 19:26SPEAKER_01: If when I read that comment, if you'd have told me to write down or say what this person looked like when I went to his page, I was like, I was right.
- 19:33SPEAKER_01: Yep.
- 19:33SPEAKER_01: It was one of those situations like that makes sense.
- 19:36SPEAKER_01: Somewhere between a turd sandwich and a gym and we're not above.
- 19:40SPEAKER_01: Like, we asked for this kind of shit.
- 19:41SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 19:42SPEAKER_01: That that's not kind of helpful comment.
- 19:44SPEAKER_00: It's kind of uncomfortable.
- 19:45SPEAKER_01: That's just a that's just you're a dickhead for that.
- 19:47SPEAKER_01: Like, period.
- 19:48SPEAKER_01: And I'm gonna tell you that.
- 19:49SPEAKER_01: Yeah, you're a troll.
- 19:50SPEAKER_01: Um, and it's fine.
- 19:51SPEAKER_01: Whatever, bro.
- 19:52SPEAKER_01: Like the fact that you don't have a life, that a random reel popped up on your list, and you were Matt entitled to say something to a podcast you've never listened to.
- 20:01SPEAKER_01: No, never listened to.
- 20:02SPEAKER_01: You've never watched.
- 20:03SPEAKER_01: Nope.
- 20:04SPEAKER_01: You know what?
- 20:04SPEAKER_01: Fine.
- 20:05SPEAKER_01: Your life that miserable, right?
- 20:06SPEAKER_01: Living it because of that.
- 20:07SPEAKER_01: I'm not, I'm not, you know.
- 20:09SPEAKER_01: Did it affect me?
- 20:10SPEAKER_01: Of course.
- 20:10SPEAKER_01: When I first read it, I was like, fuck you, dude.
- 20:13SPEAKER_01: But the more I thought about it, I was like, well, you're obviously more miserable than me, so you can eat a dick up till you hiccup, as far as I can.
- 20:19SPEAKER_01: Exactly.
- 20:19SPEAKER_01: I don't give a shit.
- 20:20SPEAKER_01: You're not wrong, man.
- 20:21SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 20:22SPEAKER_01: Cause, you know, I again, I know that what we do isn't gonna be for everybody.
- 20:28SPEAKER_01: No.
- 20:28SPEAKER_01: Um, but I'm not making it for them.
- 20:31SPEAKER_01: No.
- 20:31SPEAKER_01: So this is for us, man.
- 20:32SPEAKER_01: Yeah, this is for us and for the people that continuously listen.
- 20:37SPEAKER_00: If you want to come along for the ride, please enjoy the ride.
- 20:41SPEAKER_00: Right.
- 20:41SPEAKER_00: Fasten your safety belts and keep your hands and feet in the car at all times.
- 20:45SPEAKER_01: Do not stand up while the ride is moving.
- 20:47SPEAKER_01: Exactly.
- 20:48SPEAKER_00: May cause dizziness.
- 20:50SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 20:50SPEAKER_01: Um nausea.
- 20:52SPEAKER_01: Oh, it'll definitely cause both of that for me.
- 20:55SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 20:56SPEAKER_01: Um, I'm bro, like I said, we talked about it, but I just sometimes if I turn my head real quick because I hear something, I'm like, oh shit, I shouldn't have done that.
- 21:07SPEAKER_01: Um Yeah.
- 21:08SPEAKER_01: Uh-oh.
- 21:09SPEAKER_01: No, I just uh no.
- 21:11SPEAKER_01: Um but the house is burning down.
- 21:13SPEAKER_01: We need help.
- 21:14SPEAKER_01: We need an adult.
- 21:14SPEAKER_01: Ty's hungry, and I always tell him to ask me so I can regulate what he's eating and stuff, and he actually My kids wouldn't.
- 21:22SPEAKER_01: They wouldn't give a shit.
- 21:23SPEAKER_01: Yeah, no.
- 21:24SPEAKER_01: I mean, I still think there's times when he's at home by himself, he doesn't think about it and probably goes and gets himself a snack, but whatever.
- 21:31SPEAKER_01: Um, but yeah, I mean, crazy.
- 21:33SPEAKER_01: We we've both, you know, you're getting back into the groove of having a job and uh, you know, me having to pull you know mama and papa duties at home.
- 21:42SPEAKER_01: Holy shit, that was crunchy.
- 21:44SPEAKER_01: I'm calling that out in the video.
- 21:47SPEAKER_01: Oh, I heard that.
- 21:48SPEAKER_01: That shit sounded like that hurt.
- 21:49SPEAKER_01: That just goes along with the episode we just recorded.
- 21:52SPEAKER_01: No kidding.
- 21:52SPEAKER_01: Too bad it didn't happen during the night.
- 21:54SPEAKER_01: I know, right?
- 21:55SPEAKER_01: Um, but yeah, it's been a week, and guys, I think we're gonna stick with this format.
- 22:00SPEAKER_01: At for a while, one episode a week, one bull session.
- 22:02SPEAKER_01: I like it.
- 22:03SPEAKER_01: Um, the bull sessions is our therapy session where we just kind of like wash ourselves away of the week and say fuck it, but um where are we at on time?
- 22:13SPEAKER_01: 22.
- 22:15SPEAKER_01: Uh was there something there was something else that I saw that I wanted to bring up to you, and of course I didn't write it down because I always have faith in the memory I know I'm not gonna remember, which figure that fucking shit out.
- 22:27SPEAKER_01: Oh my god.
- 22:28SPEAKER_01: Um any plans for this week?
- 22:32SPEAKER_01: Anything on the docket?
- 22:34SPEAKER_01: Um I mean I obviously work, but yeah, this week is more training as far as I know.
- 22:39SPEAKER_00: I go in 8 to 445, which is gonna be my normal shift for the job that I was actually hired for, which is driving like a 26-foot box truck, uh going from the warehouse to the factory to bring back orders to get sorted to be shipped to customers.
- 22:55SPEAKER_01: Now, are you are we had talked about this, I don't know if we talked about them on the pod, but are you still look thinking of getting your CVL still too?
- 23:02SPEAKER_00: There's a possibility after a little bit of time.
- 23:04SPEAKER_00: It depends on how this goes.
- 23:06SPEAKER_00: But you're just kind of waiting to see how this I would like to.
- 23:09SPEAKER_00: You know, it opens the door for more potential and possibilities.
- 23:12SPEAKER_01: Well, that's kind of my thing, is like I figure once you get that, you'll find better.
- 23:16SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 23:17SPEAKER_01: I'm not saying this job's not, but I mean more you can more fine-tune what you want to look for rather than just kind of all right, I gotta take this for whatever reason.
- 23:26SPEAKER_00: Well, I mean, it I took it not knowing exactly, you know, and it's just nice, man, because it I think I said it on the one we just recorded.
- 23:36SPEAKER_00: I'm not rolling tires.
- 23:37SPEAKER_00: Well, that gets I'm not killing myself.
- 23:40SPEAKER_01: You know, again, we talked about it on that episode, but yeah.
- 23:43SPEAKER_01: You know, every all these guys, they just Oh, you gotta do something physical.
- 23:48SPEAKER_00: Why?
- 23:49SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 23:49SPEAKER_00: For what?
- 23:50SPEAKER_00: But see the thing is they don't realize as you do that starting at like 17, 18 years old.
- 23:55SPEAKER_00: You'd fine, you work a physical job for 15, 20 years.
- 23:58SPEAKER_00: It could be multiple different physical jobs over that amount of time.
- 24:01SPEAKER_00: By the time you hit 40, everything hurts so bad you'd you're like, I don't want to do any more physical jobs.
- 24:07SPEAKER_00: It sucks.
- 24:08SPEAKER_01: That part.
- 24:09SPEAKER_01: This is what I you know what I tell people that say that when you're driving on the highway and there's construction work and there's actually workers there, not just cones, not just cones and barrels.
- 24:19SPEAKER_01: Right um, Ohio State.
- 24:21SPEAKER_01: You ever notice that like any of the guys that are doing the work, none of them look over 35.
- 24:27SPEAKER_01: No, the older guys are in their trucks, yep.
- 24:29SPEAKER_01: They're there's a reason for that.
- 24:31SPEAKER_01: That shit takes years off of your life.
- 24:34SPEAKER_01: Now, of course, we need them.
- 24:36SPEAKER_01: And I'm I'm I'm sending a thank you to all you guys that construction workers, carpenters, welders, masons, electricians, anything, electricians, anything we're missing.
- 24:45SPEAKER_01: That's a lot of physical uh HVHC, all of that stuff.
- 24:49SPEAKER_01: Um, what Jermaine does, like all of this stuff is tough, but guess what?
- 24:54SPEAKER_01: I don't want to do it.
- 24:55SPEAKER_01: Nope.
- 24:56SPEAKER_01: Um, and again, you don't see people in their late 40s and 50s out on a construction field doing that.
- 25:03SPEAKER_00: Unless you're a foreman, you're the one operating the heavy equipment.
- 25:08SPEAKER_00: That part because that's a little bit easier on the body.
- 25:10SPEAKER_01: Yes, because that's what um Rhiannon's oldest brother works for her dad at the rail yard, and he runs the big cranes to lift the stone and put it into the damn the uh the trains.
- 25:22SPEAKER_01: So nice.
- 25:23SPEAKER_00: So it's a little bit easier on the body.
- 25:25SPEAKER_01: Yeah, for sure.
- 25:26SPEAKER_00: But that's what I'm looking for now.
- 25:27SPEAKER_01: I I can't Well, that's why I set it a fucking desk.
- 25:30SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I'm in meetings and send emails and design shit all day.
- 25:34SPEAKER_00: So I I hope someday, maybe in a couple years, if this takes off.
- 25:38SPEAKER_01: I mean, shit, I didn't get it till I was 41.
- 25:41SPEAKER_00: Yeah, I'm just you know maybe someday this is this what we're doing will take off and we can I mean you know again eventually we'd like to get there.
- 25:50SPEAKER_00: If it does, it does.
- 25:51SPEAKER_00: If it doesn't, I don't care.
- 25:52SPEAKER_01: I just fun for I just seen a thing where like man, what was it?
- 25:57SPEAKER_01: It was a comparison of like when people got started and they like did you know uh Samuel L.
- 26:02SPEAKER_01: Jackson?
- 26:02SPEAKER_01: You know how old he was you know what what movie his first big break was?
- 26:06SPEAKER_01: Pulp fiction.
- 26:06SPEAKER_01: Was it Pulp Fiction?
- 26:07SPEAKER_01: You know how old he was 40s?
- 26:09SPEAKER_00: 46.
- 26:10SPEAKER_00: Yeah, okay.
- 26:10SPEAKER_00: So he's right it was right around our age, basically.
- 26:12SPEAKER_01: Um there was another one.
- 26:14SPEAKER_01: Uh who was it?
- 26:14SPEAKER_01: It was uh one of the it was like Sophia Loren or what one of those like perfume or I can't remember which one it was, started when she was like 56 or something.
- 26:27SPEAKER_01: It's like dude, there's never yeah, but you know what?
- 26:30SPEAKER_01: That's you know I still think what we got is good.
- 26:34SPEAKER_01: I mean, I've listened to podcasts for five minutes and went, I can't listen to this.
- 26:39SPEAKER_01: Yeah, that's probably what most people think about us.
- 26:41SPEAKER_01: No, because I I can guarantee you I'm our biggest critic, or we are our biggest biggest critic.
- 26:47SPEAKER_01: But when I listen back to it, I never go, that was cringy.
- 26:52SPEAKER_01: Yeah, that was bad.
- 26:53SPEAKER_01: Also true.
- 26:54SPEAKER_01: I might go, yeah, that episode was better, but but other than that, like, you know, I I think you know, we pay attention enough and and and we listen, like, you know, if you remember, like you you you had said that it was like you know, in the first Star Wars episode, somebody had told you, like, hey, he was talking more, and you said, Well, that's because he was more diverse.
- 27:14SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 27:14SPEAKER_01: Remember, uh, your sister had said after the first couple episodes, you guys interrupt each other a lot.
- 27:18SPEAKER_01: So we paid attention to that.
- 27:19SPEAKER_01: Guys, we listen and we want to make a better product.
- 27:22SPEAKER_01: But again, if you're not engaging, then we just have to go with what we think.
- 27:25SPEAKER_01: And when you're on the outside looking in, you know, at this point, you either you either miss a lot, yeah, or you micromanage and you fuck shit up.
- 27:32SPEAKER_00: So it would be nice at this point if people would just listen.
- 27:35SPEAKER_01: Yeah, man.
- 27:36SPEAKER_01: Download and listen.
- 27:38SPEAKER_01: Like, I I mean, it's been I get it.
- 27:40SPEAKER_01: We watched a couple uh you know, podcasts are are basically considered radio now, and a lot of people don't.
- 27:47SPEAKER_01: But I mean, I promise you, like, we we go back to all our episodes.
- 27:52SPEAKER_01: We cover every variety of topic except for the two we literally said we don't want to talk about.
- 27:56SPEAKER_01: Right, and that's our choice because we're trying to put something for people to get away from the harsh realities of of the world and the shit.
- 28:05SPEAKER_01: I mean, we're in a war, we were in a war with lettuce, we were in a war with a wildfire, now we're in a war with fucking eggs.
- 28:11SPEAKER_01: Like there's always something going on, and you know, I I don't know.
- 28:16SPEAKER_01: I don't know.
- 28:17SPEAKER_01: I just think that you know, we made this for us, we did, and then to make it to make other people laugh and yeah, and to to cry because we did the grief episode.
- 28:26SPEAKER_01: Yeah, that was that's still one of my favorite episodes, man.
- 28:29SPEAKER_01: I I I I I absolutely love that episode.
- 28:31SPEAKER_01: Um we were very candid and honest, and you know, we both have experienced quite a bit of loss in our lives, and and not just death, but my my divorce, and you had a relationship with with Layla's mom, and that that didn't pan out.
- 28:50SPEAKER_01: And you know, I have a a daughter that that relationship didn't pan out.
- 28:54SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 28:54SPEAKER_01: You know, loss doesn't necessarily mean death, but um, but guys, we we we want we want you guys to listen.
- 29:02SPEAKER_01: Um, you know, again, we unfortunately we've said it a hundred million times, but even if you don't, we're still gonna do it.
- 29:10SPEAKER_01: But it does make us feel better.
- 29:11SPEAKER_01: It does make us feel better.
- 29:13SPEAKER_00: Let's see.
- 29:13SPEAKER_00: So we we discussed politics.
- 29:15SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 29:16SPEAKER_00: So we're we're opposite ends of the spectrum on that, pretty much.
- 29:20SPEAKER_00: I mean, I'm more middle independent.
- 29:22SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 29:23SPEAKER_01: Um do I mention the religion side of it?
- 29:27SPEAKER_01: Well, and I I think I alluded to that where I said those are the two subjects where we're both on the opposite ends of the spectrum, yeah.
- 29:34SPEAKER_01: But we can conversate about it, but other people like I know we don't have a big following, but eventually we could and people could go back.
- 29:41SPEAKER_01: I don't want people fighting in our comments, and right, like that's not what I want.
- 29:44SPEAKER_01: I'm not here for that.
- 29:46SPEAKER_01: Um, and and I, you know, again, um, and and we'll just yeah, I I just we we're making stuff to make people think, to make people laugh.
- 29:58SPEAKER_01: Exactly.
- 29:59SPEAKER_01: We want you to feel a gambit of emotions and just and just be able to just put it on and like you don't have to pay attention that much.
- 30:08SPEAKER_01: You can put it on ground.
- 30:10SPEAKER_01: Yeah, you can put it on and and clean your house, or you got a long drive, man, throw it on.
- 30:15SPEAKER_01: I mean, that's what you know.
- 30:16SPEAKER_01: I have a 55-minute drive to work.
- 30:18SPEAKER_01: I can you know that's when I listen to podcasts on my way to work on my way home.
- 30:22SPEAKER_00: So I I I like that that we're you know long form and uh I wouldn't want to do like a 28-minute episode except for the bowl sessions.
- 30:33SPEAKER_01: I mean that that scratch is the niche that we have.
- 30:35SPEAKER_01: Exactly.
- 30:36SPEAKER_00: And you know that's more of our pop culture, everyday life weekly update.
- 30:42SPEAKER_00: It's like the weekend update on SNL.
- 30:44SPEAKER_00: Right.
- 30:44SPEAKER_00: You know, except for this is your week long update.
- 30:47SPEAKER_00: And I'm cool with that, man.
- 30:49SPEAKER_00: Uh again, I enjoy it because we're a little I think not that we're not already candid on the main, you know, mainline episodes, but we're even more open and candid on the bull sessions.
- 31:00SPEAKER_00: Yeah, yeah, we don't really there's not a lot of whitewash or you know, bullshit that well bullshit, bull session.
- 31:09SPEAKER_00: I mean funny.
- 31:11SPEAKER_00: But I I enjoy it.
- 31:14SPEAKER_00: Yeah, I I agree.
- 31:18SPEAKER_01: Um I guess uh on that we can Where are we going?
- 31:26SPEAKER_00: Ooh, is it that time?
- 31:28SPEAKER_01: I think so.
- 31:29SPEAKER_00: You got one of them jokes going on over there?
- 31:32SPEAKER_00: Yeah, uh I think I think I do.
- 31:36SPEAKER_00: Uh oh.
- 31:36SPEAKER_00: You're thinking about it, so it's probably it's probably a bastard of a joke.
- 31:43SPEAKER_00: It is.
- 31:44SPEAKER_00: Um boy.
- 31:45SPEAKER_01: We gonna get ourselves canceled.
- 31:48SPEAKER_01: I'm going for another one that's gonna call out a type of person.
- 31:51SPEAKER_00: Oh yeah.
- 31:53SPEAKER_01: Are are are we ready?
- 31:54SPEAKER_01: I'm ready.
- 31:55SPEAKER_01: What do you call a blonde who dyes her hair brown?
- 32:02SPEAKER_01: I d I don't know.
- 32:04SPEAKER_01: Artificial intelligence.
- 32:10SPEAKER_01: And on that note, see you next session.
