• 0:14
  Speaker 2: you or hurts you with a hula hoop and tell
• 0:16
  Speaker 2: you the creepy story of the first chiropractor. Well, it's
• 0:20

• 0:44
  Speaker 1: that heart of the thaying.
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: You might think, why not banter city.
• 0:49
  Speaker 3: I don't know if we're big enough small municipality really,
• 0:53
  Speaker 3: but town already.
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: Was a stretch unincorporated right, unincorporated areas. Oh, I've driven
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: through many dam didn't even have a water tower.
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: It makes me wonder like, if you're with it enough
• 1:06
  Speaker 3: to have a sign, maybe you are incorporated.
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. I get it, you're not
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: a corporation.
• 1:13
  Speaker 3: But to say unincorporated, but then to put a sign
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: up is you're going a long way to say that.
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: We don't have anything yeah, we have enough to have
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: a sign.
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: I went to my buddy Josh Need he did a
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: show last night as Ain'ties, and we had lunch together.
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: He worked with me when I was hosting back in
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: my hosting days. It's Side Scorers, Side Splitters Knoxville twenty
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: ten or eleven, so I was brand new going there,
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: going to Knoxville for twenty five bucks a show behind
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: the Ear, and he had his Comedy Central presents out
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: and so I really liked his comedy so it was
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: cool to get to work with him, and he was
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: so nice. But anyway, we hadn't touched a cross Pathison's then,
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: but we touched based on Instagram and stuff, and he
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: remembered me, which was really cool. But we had lun
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: yesterday and then he said come to the show. Well anyway,
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: one of his jokes last night was about doing shows
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: in tiny towns. He goes, I did shows in a
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: town that was in the South and they had elected
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: a dog the mayor or four terms in a row,
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: a different dog, four he goes. He goes, that means
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: that somebody along the line goes that town's older than
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: four generations. That means somewhere along the line like somebody
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: lost to a dog, How bad are you a politics?
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: Or like you know what, we're gonna give pickles a chance,
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: you're out. I want to see, I want to see.
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: I'm want to see what Shelton has. Yeah, it's a
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: it's a whole different thing. But yeah, so that's true.
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: Like we have. What's funny is we have somebody that
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: runs for some city council thing and she's run twice.
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: I think it's a woman, and that she has her
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: big dog in the photos on the thing, and I
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: bet it gets her votes. I bet it's like look
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: at that dog, because you kind of sort of go,
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: first of all, you think even if it is her
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: not I'm an that I think it's the dog. But
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: I'm saying, even if it is really just voting for her,
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: he goes, well, she has a dog, she must be
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: a good person.
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: You don't see anybody ever send them out with their cats, right,
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: they might lose your votes.
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: And I mean, no offense to everyone listening. No, but yikes,
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: Norm McDonald me Nor mc donald has a special called
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: Hitler's Dog, And the whole idea is like Hitler had
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: a dog that loved him even though he's this monster.
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: He had a dog that he did he had a dog.
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: That dog probably was like, he's a pretty good guy. Yeah,
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: I'm always excited to lick his tiny mustache. Right, what
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: a weird what a weird thing to think about, but
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: it's true. Yeah, I don't know, Donald, I don't know
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: how we got into that, but here we are because
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: that's our show. I am yeh, Johnny.
• 3:39
  Speaker 3: I feel like the need for speed that you are
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: traveling more. And I know people don't want to hear
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: allway about travel all the time. No, but this is
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: a little excessive. Now it's getting.
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: Out of hand, to the point where I told you today,
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: I was like, I need to start blocking off some
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: chunks of the calendar, which there's a great problem to have.
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: I guess when you started doing comedy, you're like, I
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: just want to be busy, And now it's like we
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: we've gotten really busy. This was the second weekend of
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: this past week. It was the second weekend of the
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: Live and Laughing Tour, which is my bus tour. Right,
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: we're doing these big churches and Curry gets to come along.
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: She She's tentatively like sure, and you know, we got
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: the little back cabin. Yeah in these buses, so she
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: has a little with a little privacy, but it's still
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: and we're right over the wheel. So it's so funny
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: like trying to sleep when the bus is moving, like
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: you're not.
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: It was a couple of times I was like, are
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: we driving through a field? Like what are we doing?
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: You know what you need?
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: You need almost like a makeshift square, almost like trampoline, something.
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: That gets off its own suspension.
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so that it's suspended above so that it doesn't I.
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: Bet you this has already been thought of and disproven
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: by somebody who rides in a bus all the time.
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: Somebody's already thought like, I'll build my own suspension system
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: within the bus.
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah, maybe not, though I don't know.
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: Looking when the zero glad zero gravity chamber or something.
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: Yes, somehow that the road because you are over a
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: double axle.
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah, right, so and.
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: I'm performing a double axel, which is gonna be huge
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: with the East German judges. A triple southcow if you will.
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: By the way, we haven't talked about the fact that the.
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: Triple sulcow sounds like a horrible like medical experiment gone
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: wrong of like animal husbandry. He's made a triple South
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: count run, Flea and terror. We we're talking about the.
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: Fact that the USA women's and men's yeah hockey teams
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: won gold.
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: It was a great moment. And what's wild is the
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: men were playing against a superior team. They just had
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: a hot goalie. Like, the shots on goal were insane.
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: I think the Canadians had forty two shots on gold
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: are twenty seven or something. Yeah, and we some of
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: those walks that guy did were insane. It was like Jedi. Yeah,
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: he just reaches back and like last that can deflex it.
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: And we just got it. When you've got hot, we
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: had a hot goalie. And then in the overtime period,
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: we just got a freak play where we you know what,
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: it's three on three in overtime in the Olympic rules,
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: which a lot of people don't like, but you gotta
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: get eventually. You got to get to the end of
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: the game.
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: Right, So what was the final score?
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: Two to one? Two to one in overtime.
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: Again, I'm going to be that guy, you think these
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: goals should count seven points.
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: People would be more interested maybe if you had like seven.
• 6:25
  Speaker 3: So the first one goes for six and then you
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: get a free shot and the goal for an extra
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: or you can go with a goalie for three.
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: Again. Think about it.
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: Hockey is a very popular score, John, No, I'm not.
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: I'm not miss smirching hockey.
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: You said, miss merching bus smirching, smirching.
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: I'm not miss smirching hockey. I just I'm must smirching
• 6:43
  Speaker 3: the English language, you know.
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: I just think, Yeah, I always.
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: Prefer sports that have a little more scoring with the
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: final score is zero to zero or whatever.
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: I'm like, man, well, it can't be in an gold
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: medal match.
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: Of course, right, it couldn't be in a regular match, right.
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: No, Well no that was thelways have overtime. So you
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: have three scores, you have win, loss. I guess there
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: is a tie now win, loss, overtime loss. I think
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: they go into you have a winner, a loss, and
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: the Olympics, I probably do, but I think in the
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: do they win loss, tie overtime one?
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: W't you tie? In the NHL?
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: Maybe what do they do? They just send you home.
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: We need to look that up because we're gonna get
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: people screaming.
• 7:19
  Speaker 3: Now like this, let's leave it. Let's leave it hanging
• 7:21
  Speaker 3: out there. Guys, if you're feeling enraged right now NHL
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: games result in a tie.
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: I'm asking the phone here. I don't want to know
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: the NHL schedule, do you.
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: Bean, asked Claude, because you don't know what you're doing
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: over there.
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 7:36
  Speaker 3: So you told me, by the way that you have
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: no idea about AI and we have a lot of
• 7:40
  Speaker 3: work to do.
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: Do you think this podcast will be more successful if
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: we relied on AI more?
• 7:45
  Speaker 3: No, listen, you have to know, like nothing could make
• 7:48
  Speaker 3: this thing more than nothing.
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: We are pinnacle of what have you? Here?
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: We go watch this, watch this? Do NHL games go
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: into ties? N h L games tie?
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: How do I tie a tie? The wins are not
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: it's gonna give you a.
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: You're gonna educate artificial intelligence? Am I?
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: Right? Yeah?
• 8:19
  Speaker 3: Okay, uh no, they could not. Since five six season,
• 8:22
  Speaker 3: every regular season game must have a winner.
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: See, that's what's wrong with America.
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: Man. So there are three there's still three scores though
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: in your record though. Okay, so there's three numbers in
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: your record. There's win, loss, overtime loss, So overtime losses
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: count differently, so it's almost like a tie. So overtime
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: losses are are a little bit. I don't know how it.
• 8:41
  Speaker 3: Works, but there's no way to know. We've already asked
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: Ai all that we can ask it.
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: I'm telling you, if you're a hockey fan, you've already
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: turned this off and you've decided never to download it again.
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: We are done.
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: But I will say it was a moment of pride,
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: even though you know the US or whatever is like
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: it's I don't feel this whole like acrony towards Canada,
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: like good girl, come on, it's Canada. But I will
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: say like Canada considers themselves like the hockey country, so
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: if you beat them at their own game. It's been
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: forty six years Yeah, since we won the gold in hockey.
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: It's wild. Yeah, the women have won way more recently
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: than the men. Last time the men one was miracle
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: on ice. That's how long do you live in miracles?
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: Yes?
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: I do, Al Michaels, what a legendary call. What a
• 9:26

• 10:43
  Speaker 1: You know, that's about what I got.
• 10:46
  Speaker 3: And then I said, oh, if Johnny would have said it, no,
• 10:49
  Speaker 3: you know, I'll be freaking out and largos. If Johnny
• 10:51
  Speaker 3: would have said it, everyone wondered why he's a professional comedian.

  Speaker 2: get those tickets. That one is close to a sellout.
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: So you left, though.
• 12:11
  Speaker 3: Do you remember when we first met something you told
• 12:14
  Speaker 3: me about that if you were ever going to open
• 12:17
  Speaker 3: up your own psychic reading location, right, what you would
• 12:23
  Speaker 3: call it? The Happy Medium?
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: Yeah? So if you were open a comedy club, what
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: would you call it? Don't wonder.
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 12:31
  Speaker 3: Gutbusters, I mean, I don't know, like cut Busters, bud Splitters.
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: Side split there's already side Splitters is already there. But
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: that's that's great.
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: Busters. Sounds like the food is going you ate it.
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: Crystal Yeah, something we serve slides not a sponsor.
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: Not a sponsor. Maybe they are, though awkward.
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: I do like a good sack full of crystals every
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: once in a while.
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: Every now and again, you do, you crave them and
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: then you immediately go, what am I not there? And
• 12:53
  Speaker 2: I got to get to the restaurant.
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's anyway.
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: Fun times.
• 12:59
  Speaker 3: Hey guys, it's the time. Yeah, it's my segment. It's
• 13:02
  Speaker 3: one we call they talked about that. I actually shared
• 13:17
  Speaker 3: this in a sermon on Sunday. We're doing a series
• 13:19
  Speaker 3: called the Verses Versus, So it's about Proverbs. So the
• 13:24
  Speaker 3: fool versus the wise is the general, but that's not
• 13:29
  Speaker 3: like we all want to be like that guy is
• 13:30
  Speaker 3: a fool, but the truth is circumstantially scenario based. Wise,
• 13:35
  Speaker 3: Proverbs would say that you can be foolish in one
• 13:37
  Speaker 3: part of your life, you can be wise in another.
• 13:40
  Speaker 3: It all depends on how you show up. So we're
• 13:41
  Speaker 3: always in process.
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: You've all.
• 13:45
  Speaker 3: So like this, it's easy to be someone who's like,
• 13:47
  Speaker 3: you know, maybe you're wise in relationships but foolish in money,
• 13:49
  Speaker 3: Or maybe you're foolish in the way that you react
• 13:52
  Speaker 3: in anger, but you're wise in the way that you
• 13:54
  Speaker 3: have empathy towards others.
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: So like it's you know, we all want to be
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: one thing and.
• 13:58
  Speaker 3: That's just not really not works. Proverbs would would say that. So,
• 14:01
  Speaker 3: so you have these two things that are versus one another.
• 14:04
  Speaker 3: And I was talking about the simple versus the anchored,
• 14:09
  Speaker 3: and so the Proverbs talks a lot about the simple person.
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: Which sounds very insulting to us.
• 14:15
  Speaker 3: So I really went through like what that means in
• 14:17
  Speaker 3: the scripture, which it talks about being naive and gullible,
• 14:20
  Speaker 3: but it also talks about it being.
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: Intentionally uninformed.
• 14:25
  Speaker 3: Oh sure, So like I'm choosing here not to challenge
• 14:30
  Speaker 3: or to question. And as we talked about the idea
• 14:34
  Speaker 3: that anything like, you don't have to be insecure about
• 14:36
  Speaker 3: the things that the things that are worth believing, that
• 14:38
  Speaker 3: are strong, they need to be scrutinized, right, and it's
• 14:41
  Speaker 3: okay to let them stand without just la la la la,
• 14:44
  Speaker 3: you know, covering your ears and remaining intentionally simple minded
• 14:48
  Speaker 3: about something by not hearing another side to it. So
• 14:51
  Speaker 3: let the right thing be the right thing regardless. So anyway,
• 14:55
  Speaker 3: you can always hear those by the way at church
• 14:57
  Speaker 3: at Pleasant Grove dot com if you wanted to hear
• 14:59
  Speaker 3: something from something guys, Yeah, but I'll quoted Dietrich Bonhoeffer,
• 15:03
  Speaker 3: which he wrote this in Letters from Prison. So he's
• 15:06
  Speaker 3: in prison before he dies and he's talking about this
• 15:09
  Speaker 3: is just interesting, this exact kind of a person who's
• 15:14
  Speaker 3: caught in this exact kind of foolishness, he says. In
• 15:16
  Speaker 3: conversations with him, one virtually feels that one is dealing
• 15:20
  Speaker 3: not at all with him as a person, but with
• 15:23
  Speaker 3: slogans catchwords and the like that have taken possession of him.
• 15:27
  Speaker 3: He is under a spell, blinded, misused and abused in
• 15:31
  Speaker 3: his very being, having thus become a mindless tool. The
• 15:34
  Speaker 3: foolish person, and the definition here in German would be
• 15:37
  Speaker 3: one with ideological dependence and blindness. That kind of person
• 15:42
  Speaker 3: will also be capable of any evil and at the
• 15:45
  Speaker 3: same time incapable of seeing that it is evil. You
• 15:49
  Speaker 3: talk about somebody as a front row seat for that
• 15:50
  Speaker 3: kind of thinking, he's actually going to lose his life
• 15:54
  Speaker 3: from that. But I think that what we don't always
• 15:56
  Speaker 3: see is the downstream effects of being unwilling to hear
• 16:01
  Speaker 3: more than one side. And I made the joke you
• 16:02
  Speaker 3: know about sometimes saw on Instagram of how back when
• 16:07
  Speaker 3: the nineties we had this crazy you're gonna think it
• 16:09
  Speaker 3: is nuts, but this crazy thing that we used to do,
• 16:12
  Speaker 3: and I mean, we wonn't even know if people today
• 16:15
  Speaker 3: would freak out about it, but it was called critical thinking,
• 16:18
  Speaker 3: and that is that we would listen to more than
• 16:20
  Speaker 3: one side and then try to weigh and base upon
• 16:23
  Speaker 3: their merits, and not just hear the one side that
• 16:25
  Speaker 3: we wanted to hear the most, but the simpler those
• 16:28
  Speaker 3: And I think we all do it. It's just simpler,
• 16:31
  Speaker 3: and I talked about why we do it. I think
• 16:33
  Speaker 3: we do it because it creates a false sense of
• 16:35
  Speaker 3: both safety and rest. It means like I don't have
• 16:39
  Speaker 3: to deal with that worrisome idea that maybe there's something
• 16:44
  Speaker 3: here I'm not seeing.
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: I don't have to keep looking. I don't have to
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: keep digging. What was the purpose of digging anymore?
• 16:49
  Speaker 3: Since I already know what's under there, so't I actually
• 16:51
  Speaker 3: go and look for it? And then I just think
• 16:53
  Speaker 3: we're tired, so it lets me have rest. I stopped
• 16:56
  Speaker 3: being intellectually engaged on the issue now so I can rest.
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: We're the most you know, overexposed to information generation that's
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: ever been until the next one, which will be right.
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: It's like a fire hose coming their way. But we
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: we know everyone's opinion around us, every family member, we know,
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: every political opinion. We know. Yeah, I remember when the
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: first Goal War happened and we could see like missiles
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: going over into other countries. It was a televised war
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: twenty four hours a day, and even then people were
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: like this is doing something to us. They you knew,
• 17:35
  Speaker 2: like this is going to make things weird. And it did.
• 17:38
  Speaker 2: But now it's just like people watch murders on Twitter.
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: Now it's crazy. Yeah, yeah, we just know too much.
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: And so yeah, like you said, as a defense mechanism
• 17:47
  Speaker 2: against that, we have to protect ourselves by trying to
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: make the world feel simple, and so we oversimplify very
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: complicated things. And what that does to me is it
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: other eyeses people. It makes there's an out group, that is,
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: you know, we've drawn the circle now I figured it out.
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: If you don't get it, you've your other And so
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: that's simpler, but it also gives us what we have. Yeah.
• 18:14
  Speaker 3: I told them I had a conversation with someone, and
• 18:15
  Speaker 3: I won't say the exact words. I of course I
• 18:18
  Speaker 3: said a few things and they go, oh, you sound
• 18:20
  Speaker 3: like a and they labeled me something I'm not And
• 18:24
  Speaker 3: I was like interesting. So you think anyone who has
• 18:28
  Speaker 3: this minor idea must fall into this major category without
• 18:32
  Speaker 3: any of the other considerations for all the other things you.
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: Already know about me.
• 18:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, and I think again those things you could insert.
• 18:39
  Speaker 3: You sound like a right winger, you sound like a liberal,
• 18:42
  Speaker 3: you sound like a you know whatever I mean? So
• 18:45
  Speaker 3: how fast it is that that label simplifies.
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's I mean, that's a stereotype, stakehold and hell
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: labels just they're like timesavers for people. Yeah, like, oh,
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: I can put you in this box. It makes you
• 18:56
  Speaker 2: bite size for me, I can just be done. We
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: can either decide to move on with our friendship or
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: not based on this thing that like I put a
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: little sticker on you.
• 19:05
  Speaker 3: Why confess speaking of stickers that I have to fight.
• 19:09
  Speaker 3: Sometimes I'll see a bumper sticker and it will promote
• 19:12
  Speaker 3: something that I do not agree with or believe in. Yeah,
• 19:15
  Speaker 3: and it is hard for me not to make I
• 19:21
  Speaker 3: guess derogatory inward sort of conclusions like roll my eyes,
• 19:26
  Speaker 3: huff a little bit at that quote unquote person as
• 19:29
  Speaker 3: opposed to just you know.
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: That is that inward battle of like conclusions about people
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: who also have the image of God, Like if we believe,
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: yeah that they're maybe someone else is participating in dehumanizing language,
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: but now your temptation is dehumanized them, Yeah, because they're
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: participating in that.
• 19:48
  Speaker 3: What's hard, though, is certain things, and I think this
• 19:50
  Speaker 3: is where the tension is. There are certain things that
• 19:53
  Speaker 3: cross a line in society to the point that they're
• 19:59
  Speaker 3: very the very way of doing it shuts down again
• 20:03
  Speaker 3: critical thinking and comutual conversation, meaning like you can't again,
• 20:12
  Speaker 3: you can't negotiate with terrorists right if their goal is
• 20:16
  Speaker 3: to blow you up, You're not in good faith in
• 20:17
  Speaker 3: a conversation.
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: You can't ever know if you can trust.
• 20:20
  Speaker 3: I think there are certain ways of being if a
• 20:22
  Speaker 3: certain ideology is for the purpose of hating, for the
• 20:28
  Speaker 3: purpose of only dunking, only putting down, and basically if
• 20:32
  Speaker 3: you can ask people like, hey, is there anything I
• 20:34
  Speaker 3: could say right now that would cause your opinion to
• 20:36
  Speaker 3: be different on this, and they go, doesn't matter what
• 20:37
  Speaker 3: it was, I don't care. I would never then we're
• 20:39
  Speaker 3: not in good faith. There's no like at that point,
• 20:42
  Speaker 3: I don't need to dehumanize you. Also, I'm not going
• 20:45
  Speaker 3: to I'm not going to get us anywhere through the
• 20:49
  Speaker 3: methods that I believe in, and that that's where a
• 20:51
  Speaker 3: lot of people today struggle because then you end up
• 20:54
  Speaker 3: being silent when you don't want to be.
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: You should be speaking out. I feel this way about
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: social media.
• 20:59
  Speaker 3: I'll just confess that there's a lot of things I
• 21:01
  Speaker 3: could say on social media, a lot of things, and
• 21:04
  Speaker 3: you know it's not because everybody's got their research. Everyone's
• 21:07
  Speaker 3: got their things. I really try to read a lot
• 21:09
  Speaker 3: of articles about the actual things, or read the actual
• 21:12
  Speaker 3: speeches someone made or whatever. And yes I have social
• 21:15
  Speaker 3: media as well, but trying to let be my primary source.
• 21:19
  Speaker 3: But like, who do I And I want to be
• 21:23
  Speaker 3: a part of the grander conversation, right, I want to
• 21:25
  Speaker 3: affect change. Maybe that could help people if we talked
• 21:27
  Speaker 3: about it. At the end of the day, I know
• 21:29
  Speaker 3: that's not a medium in which that's going to be received.
• 21:32
  Speaker 3: It's just going to echo into someone's chamber, whether they
• 21:34
  Speaker 3: want to hear it or echo into their chamber.
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: As now we all know that John is X.
• 21:39
  Speaker 3: Right yeah and John yeah yeah, rest in peace, and
• 21:44
  Speaker 3: so like there's this for me. That's one of the
• 21:46
  Speaker 3: reasons we started the podcast is to actually be able
• 21:49
  Speaker 3: to have real long form conversations. And I think sermons
• 21:53
  Speaker 3: are the other way for me, Like, hey, you know,
• 21:54
  Speaker 3: not many people are going to hear this, but this
• 21:57
  Speaker 3: is the right time for us to search the scriptures
• 21:59
  Speaker 3: on it, and the sermon from me.
• 22:01
  Speaker 2: Is it.
• 22:04
  Speaker 3: There's an idea that I need to be true to
• 22:06
  Speaker 3: that calling, right, I don't need to just take off
• 22:08
  Speaker 3: my gloves and start punching here.
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: I need.
• 22:10
  Speaker 3: This is supposed to be the gospel, and so that
• 22:13
  Speaker 3: causes me, and that's what the gospel is supposed to do.
• 22:15
  Speaker 3: It forces me then to not take just what I
• 22:17
  Speaker 3: want to say, but to try to find out what
• 22:20
  Speaker 3: Jesus actually says right and try to make that the
• 22:22
  Speaker 3: content of the gospel. So I know that's not what
• 22:24
  Speaker 3: you do when you preach, but for me, it's about
• 22:27
  Speaker 3: what Jesus says, Johnny, and I think I'll work on it. Yeah,
• 22:31
  Speaker 3: well that's why we've called.
• 22:32
  Speaker 2: You here to that too. So John, let's do my
• 22:34
  Speaker 2: segments to wrap up the show. Let's start with old jokes.
• 22:37
  Speaker 2: Call a joke about that, John. A guy is out
• 22:45
  Speaker 2: golfing with his buddies. One of them says, Bob, you're sixty.
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: You're not exactly Brad Pitt and your new bride is
• 22:50
  Speaker 2: twenty five. Gorgeous, funny, the whole package. How did you
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: pull that off? Bob shrugs and says, I told her
• 22:55
  Speaker 2: I was eighty five. I think that's a good it's
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: a good idea, yeah, because I mean, if you're if
• 23:03
  Speaker 2: you're sixty, but you tell like Nate has a joke
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: on one of his specials years and years ago that said, uh,
• 23:11
  Speaker 2: he's out of shape. But what he has been telling,
• 23:13
  Speaker 2: what he's been doing is telling people that he used
• 23:15
  Speaker 2: to weigh three hundred pounds. He goes, because I don't
• 23:17
  Speaker 2: look good, but I look really good for a guy
• 23:18
  Speaker 2: who used to weigh three hundred pounds. And that's someone
• 23:21
  Speaker 2: he used weigh three hundred pounds. He's right. It is
• 23:23
  Speaker 2: a good gimmick. John a husband, is talking to his
• 23:27
  Speaker 2: friend about the vacation he and his wife just got
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: back from. Oh you should have seen seen This place
• 23:32
  Speaker 2: was absolutely gorgeous. Where did you go? Well, it had
• 23:34
  Speaker 2: this beautiful beach just outside the hotel. The sand was
• 23:37
  Speaker 2: almost bright white. But what was the place called? Man
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: had a huge swimming pool, a spa and everything. Yeah,
• 23:42
  Speaker 2: but what was the name of the place? Hang on,
• 23:44
  Speaker 2: it's just the tip of my tongue. Something flowery, name
• 23:46
  Speaker 2: of flower Rose? No, not Rose, something else, tulip? No,
• 23:49
  Speaker 2: keep going, lily, Lily, that's it, turns to his wife, Hey, Lily,
• 23:53
  Speaker 2: what was the name of that place? That's so stupid.
• 23:56
  Speaker 2: It's like a that's like an old Vaudville sketch. Yea,
• 23:59
  Speaker 2: and that that's I definitely know. I was. Finally, John,
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: I was getting a haircut the other day and the
• 24:04
  Speaker 2: barber kept asking me the same question over and over.
• 24:07
  Speaker 2: As he's cutting my hair. He says, so, how's your
• 24:09
  Speaker 2: mother in law doing? I shrug and say she's fine.
• 24:11
  Speaker 2: Five minutes later, he yes, how's your mother in law?
• 24:13
  Speaker 2: Now I'm getting annoyed. I answer, I told you she's fine.
• 24:17
  Speaker 2: A few minutes after that, he yes, asked yet again,
• 24:19
  Speaker 2: how is your mother in law doing? I finally snapped, Dude,
• 24:22
  Speaker 2: I already told you twice she's fine. Why do you
• 24:23
  Speaker 2: keep asking about my mother in law? He chuckles and says, Oh,
• 24:26
  Speaker 2: don't worry, it's not because I actually care. Every time
• 24:27
  Speaker 2: I mentioned your mother in law, your hair stands straight
• 24:29
  Speaker 2: up and it makes it a lot easier for me
• 24:31
  Speaker 2: to cut. That wouldn't apply to you for two reasons.
• 24:36
  Speaker 2: You love your mother in law and I don't have
• 24:38
  Speaker 2: any hair. Come on, y'all, let's let's do this week
• 24:42
  Speaker 2: in history, John, we call it talk about then built
• 24:48
  Speaker 2: an apple. John. This Week nineteen eighty nine, Michael Anderson
• 24:55
  Speaker 2: god Win, a convicted killer once sent it to the
• 24:58
  Speaker 2: electric chair, accidentally electrocutes himself to death while sitting naked
• 25:02
  Speaker 2: on a metal toilet preparing a set of earphones connected
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: to a plugged in TV set. Sentence to the electric
• 25:07
  Speaker 2: chair for murder, Godwin got his sentence overturned and appealed
• 25:11
  Speaker 2: on appeal and commuted to life imprisonment. He was spared
• 25:14
  Speaker 2: the electric chair, only to die on an electric toilet seat.
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: Unbelievable.
• 25:19
  Speaker 2: That's one of those like you can't. That's one of
• 25:24
  Speaker 2: those like ball don't lie situations. Right. You know we
• 25:28
  Speaker 2: said you may have been commuted, but you didn't. Did
• 25:30
  Speaker 2: you get commuted? You know, I electro commuted John electrope.
• 25:37
  Speaker 3: Okay, you know there's bad calls all the time in volleyball. Yeah,
• 25:41
  Speaker 3: and so the next place, so that it happened, and
• 25:43
  Speaker 3: people will say the ball don't lie, and I'll lean.
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: I'll go, guys, the ball lies all the time, so
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: let's not. Yeah.
• 25:50
  Speaker 3: I think it's just a big coincidence that this guy
• 25:52
  Speaker 3: got electrocuted on the toilet.
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: Could be and be careful when you're repairing your own headphones,
• 25:58
  Speaker 2: I guess yeah. Now it would be bluetooth, so there's
• 26:00
  Speaker 2: no way you could. Really, that's true. You couldn't.
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: You can't get it just maybe a little shocks.
• 26:05
  Speaker 2: Some man ahead of his time. John this week. Adam
• 26:10
  Speaker 2: Rayner died in nineteen fifty. The reason he makes the
• 26:13
  Speaker 2: list is he was an Austrian dwarf slash giant. I
• 26:18
  Speaker 2: had no idea of this guy's history. Okay, so this
• 26:20
  Speaker 2: is wild. At age eighteen, he was only four feet
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: and one quarter inch tall, qualifying him as a dwarf.
• 26:28
  Speaker 2: Then a sudden growth spurt, probably due to a pituitary tumor,
• 26:32
  Speaker 2: caused him to reach a height of seven foot two
• 26:34
  Speaker 2: inches by age thirty two. By the time of his
• 26:37
  Speaker 2: death at age fifty one, he'd reached a height of
• 26:39
  Speaker 2: seven foot eight inches, thus making him the only known
• 26:42
  Speaker 2: person to have been both a dwarf and a giant. However,
• 26:45
  Speaker 2: sudden growth left him with a host of health problems,
• 26:47
  Speaker 2: making it difficult for him to stand. So he went
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: from a dwarf to a giant. In how many years
• 26:52
  Speaker 2: did he live? He lived to be fifty.
• 26:54
  Speaker 3: Wow, he still lived to be fifty? Yeah, because I
• 26:56
  Speaker 3: would think that would take a real toll in the
• 26:58
  Speaker 3: old body.
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: That's what it basically says at fifty Yeah, that's yeah.
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: So he lived a life as a dwarf.
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: Something else. The closest thing I can remember to that
• 27:05
  Speaker 2: would be other than I used to watch Ripley's Believe
• 27:07
  Speaker 2: It or Not all the time as a kid with
• 27:08
  Speaker 2: Jack bownt Ripley's I Believe It Not that guy? Remember
• 27:12
  Speaker 2: that show? Okay? But then I remember, like, when I
• 27:15
  Speaker 2: was a kid, I was a fan of the NBA
• 27:18
  Speaker 2: my whole life and the Washington Bullets when I was
• 27:20
  Speaker 2: a kid. What a horribly named team. They changed their
• 27:23
  Speaker 2: name when Washington, d c. Was the murder capital of
• 27:25
  Speaker 2: the US. They were like, maybe Bullets, let's go with
• 27:27
  Speaker 2: wizards about wizards now it's the witchcraft capital. No, it's not.
• 27:32
  Speaker 2: But the Washington Bullets when I was a kid, had
• 27:35
  Speaker 2: the tallest and the shortest player in NBA history on
• 27:39
  Speaker 2: their team. At the same time, they had Muggy Bogues
• 27:41
  Speaker 2: who was five foot soth of the new five foot
• 27:43
  Speaker 2: to him a new Bowl who was seven foot six
• 27:45
  Speaker 2: or seven by the time, and at the same time,
• 27:47
  Speaker 2: can you and they always posed for pictures together, and
• 27:49
  Speaker 2: it was a wild sight to see them in a
• 27:52
  Speaker 2: picture together, obviously, but uh yeah, but yeah, a dwarf
• 27:55
  Speaker 2: and a giant in the same life. That's Uh, it
• 27:57
  Speaker 2: sounds like a book. Yeah, wild I can't believe it.
• 27:59
  Speaker 2: Never heard the story.
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah, ADAMU Rainer my great, big little life.
• 28:04
  Speaker 2: Yeah, John, you need to come on. This needs to
• 28:07
  Speaker 2: be a project. I just need to drop whatever else
• 28:09
  Speaker 2: you're doing. Get on.
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: It's done. I just sent an email to my agent.
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: I quit. You're gonna get sued by the families of
• 28:16
  Speaker 2: this person. Okay, John, the hula hoop was patent? Did
• 28:19
  Speaker 2: this week nineteen sixty three? Did you were you able
• 28:21
  Speaker 2: to do a hula hoop?
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: Could you do a hula hoop?
• 28:23
  Speaker 2: You could get it going for a minute. I could
• 28:25
  Speaker 2: never get it going. I don't know what it is.
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: My daughter could go for like thirty five minutes.
• 28:29
  Speaker 2: Maybe I got no rhythm, I got no I got
• 28:31
  Speaker 2: the blues though. That's the thing. You would think, like
• 28:33
  Speaker 2: I've got kind of a big butt, Like you would
• 28:35
  Speaker 2: think I would keep it, keep it going. But meanwhile,
• 28:39
  Speaker 2: your daughter is so thin and she's able to just.
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: Maybe put on your button. Maybe you put on your hips.
• 28:43
  Speaker 2: There big you do. But I'm saying like you would think,
• 28:45
  Speaker 2: like you're doing hips would help keep it.
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: I'm out here in a thigh. You know what Johnny.
• 28:51
  Speaker 2: Nineteen fifty seven, John Joan Anderson brought back a bamboo
• 28:55
  Speaker 2: exercise hoop quote from Australia. So this art was already
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: a thing. The exercise hoop is alread you think, and
• 29:00
  Speaker 2: she called it a hula hoop after the motion used
• 29:03
  Speaker 2: by Hawaiian dancers. Her husband showed it to Arthur spud
• 29:06
  Speaker 2: Melon of Whammo and they agreed on a gentleman's handshake
• 29:10
  Speaker 2: they would share in any profits. However, the company would
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: cut them out of the deal and they got nothing.
• 29:14
  Speaker 2: This feels like a Whammo hoop. Don't lie situation because
• 29:19
  Speaker 2: they technically took it because it was already an exercise
• 29:22
  Speaker 2: hoop from Australia. They come here and be like, we
• 29:24
  Speaker 2: call it a hula HOOPO, did you change anything? No,
• 29:27
  Speaker 2: It's just a brown right circle of plastic. There's was
• 29:31
  Speaker 2: probably made a bamboos.
• 29:33
  Speaker 3: It's kind of like a complete boomerang. It just keeps
• 29:35
  Speaker 3: going around the person that was the whole. They called
• 29:39
  Speaker 3: it a booma hoop was what they called it in Austin.
• 29:43
  Speaker 2: The fad toy began. The fad for the toy began
• 29:46
  Speaker 2: in July nineteen fifty eight with twenty five million plastic
• 29:49
  Speaker 2: hoops sold in less than four months.
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: And they probably cost a penny.
• 29:54
  Speaker 2: More than one hundred million units sold in two years.
• 29:56
  Speaker 2: Melon later claimed he invented it and applied for a
• 29:58
  Speaker 2: patent in nineteen fifty none, which was granted March fifth,
• 30:01
  Speaker 2: nineteen sixty three. Again the WAMO guy. Yeah, this feels yeah,
• 30:07
  Speaker 2: let's see yeah Mellon. Mellon claimed the patent even though
• 30:12
  Speaker 2: he had an invented and the other guy took it
• 30:13
  Speaker 2: from Australia. This feels this is like, this is almost
• 30:17
  Speaker 2: like that thing for your watch, the founder, the McDonald's guy,
• 30:20
  Speaker 2: and how it was kind of shady the beginnings of McDonald's. Yeah,
• 30:23
  Speaker 2: I mean this feels like that where you're like, all right, dude,
• 30:26
  Speaker 2: I mean I know that's a thing too, about when
• 30:27
  Speaker 2: you're supposed to be pro big business. There's no referee.
• 30:30
  Speaker 2: It's just like, well, look, the market decides, does it.
• 30:33
  Speaker 2: Though there's all kinds of ne'er do wells in the mix.
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: Some integrity guys.
• 30:37
  Speaker 2: Come on, guys, how about some ethics here? John Leather Burbank,
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: not Leather. I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I got to get
• 30:46
  Speaker 2: these glasses prepared I got to get my contacts in
• 30:49
  Speaker 2: Luther John. We named leather. That wouldn't be a great
• 30:54
  Speaker 2: I'm naming a child if I have a child, which
• 30:57
  Speaker 2: the odds are really low. Right. Burbank John was born
• 31:01
  Speaker 2: this week eighteen forty nine. He was an American naturalist.
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: He created hundreds of new breeds of flowers, plants, and trees,
• 31:07
  Speaker 2: including the russet Burbank potato in eighteen seventy three, which
• 31:12
  Speaker 2: launched the Idaho potato industry. So this is the father
• 31:15
  Speaker 2: of potatoes as GMOs, meaning he kind of constructed a
• 31:19
  Speaker 2: new potato that had dark brown skin and few eyes.
• 31:23
  Speaker 2: So that's what it was all about. Because a lot
• 31:24
  Speaker 2: of these potatoes coming like you got to cut them
• 31:26
  Speaker 2: all out. There's a lot of damage to the potato
• 31:28
  Speaker 2: that as far as the edible portion of it, I
• 31:29
  Speaker 2: guess it's the most widely grown potato in North America. Still,
• 31:33
  Speaker 2: it is good for baking, mashing, and French fries. So
• 31:37
  Speaker 2: we have Luthor, not Leather, Luther Burbank to thank for
• 31:41
  Speaker 2: those delicious French fries that you love. I think you
• 31:44
  Speaker 2: can hardly count a potato as a vegetable at this point.
• 31:46
  Speaker 2: The way we eat them. It's covered butter salt, it's fried.
• 31:50
  Speaker 2: I mean it is to eat when people go, well,
• 31:53
  Speaker 2: I had my veggies, did you that's not.
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: Oh, I don't think anyone counts patatoes veggie.
• 31:57
  Speaker 3: It is a favorable, but it's your favorite kind of
• 31:59
  Speaker 3: French fry.
• 32:01
  Speaker 2: I like, I like a good shoe string. Uh that's
• 32:04
  Speaker 2: fresh cut and then put in peanut oil, like if
• 32:06
  Speaker 2: you you know they used to have those.
• 32:08
  Speaker 3: Remember the steak escape fries that you get at the mall. Yes, okay, yes,
• 32:12
  Speaker 3: I like those. Uh and Charlie's Charlie Yeah, Charlie's Steak, uh,
• 32:17
  Speaker 3: Steak Sandwich Company whatever. Those are kind of the same
• 32:20
  Speaker 3: kind of fries. They have it five guys, Yeah, five guys.
• 32:22
  Speaker 3: So five guys would be the more our broader audience
• 32:24
  Speaker 3: would know them.
• 32:25
  Speaker 2: I like five guys fries a lot. They give you
• 32:29
  Speaker 2: a lot of them. Don't ever, don't ever go to
• 32:31
  Speaker 2: five guys in order a regular or large? What are
• 32:33
  Speaker 2: you doing with your life?
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: We'll do it for the whole family.
• 32:35
  Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, small it's it's a pound and a half.
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but it's hard for me to beat a good
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: crinkle cut too.
• 32:42
  Speaker 2: That's true. We talked about that the other day, about
• 32:44
  Speaker 2: how it can hold the salt that holds enough ketch,
• 32:46
  Speaker 2: you get the sauce too. They hang on there. It's
• 32:49
  Speaker 2: like having a big butt with a hula hoop. It
• 32:51
  Speaker 2: hangs on to all the sauces in the salt.
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: It's just like that.
• 32:56
  Speaker 2: It's not because it's counterintuitive, because just drops to the
• 32:58
  Speaker 2: ground when.
• 32:59
  Speaker 3: I can I can't, Johnny, you would think so you'd
• 33:02
  Speaker 3: see me dance.
• 33:02
  Speaker 2: I'm a great dancer.
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: The rhythm.
• 33:06
  Speaker 2: Maybe I need to involve the potatoes some kind, john Finally,
• 33:09
  Speaker 2: this week, Daniel David Palmer was born. A lot of
• 33:12
  Speaker 2: births and death on this episode. I apologize it to
• 33:15
  Speaker 2: be morbid. He was born this we celebrate his birth here.
• 33:19
  Speaker 2: He was the founder of chiropractic uh, and this is
• 33:23
  Speaker 2: why he makes the list. He's Canadian born, American magnetic healer,
• 33:28
  Speaker 2: so it's weird. Founder of chiropractic treatment. In eighteen ninety five,
• 33:32
  Speaker 2: Palmer claimed to have received quote received chiropractic from the
• 33:38
  Speaker 2: other world via a deceased physician named Tuctor Jim Atkinson.
• 33:42
  Speaker 2: So if you thought chiropractors were quacks before, now that
• 33:46
  Speaker 2: I tell you this, that the guy who invented it said,
• 33:49
  Speaker 2: I heard about it from the other world, from the
• 33:52
  Speaker 2: dead guy. He believed that the human body had natural
• 33:55
  Speaker 2: heath and power transmitted through the nervous system, and that
• 33:57
  Speaker 2: if anyone organ was affected by an illness, it was
• 33:59
  Speaker 2: merely not receiving its normal quote nerve supply, which he
• 34:02
  Speaker 2: dubbed a quote spinal misalignment or subluxation. Now, listen, I
• 34:07
  Speaker 2: think chiropractory. Chiropractory has a use in our culture. But
• 34:12
  Speaker 2: also you always meet these people who think that everything
• 34:15
  Speaker 2: is cured by an adjustment. It's almost like the oils people.
• 34:17
  Speaker 2: Oils may have a use, but like people that go
• 34:20
  Speaker 2: like I use these oils. And Dustin Nickerson has a
• 34:22
  Speaker 2: bit like I found my biological father thanks Elderberry or whatever.
• 34:27
  Speaker 2: So yeah, there's limits. And now that I know that
• 34:29
  Speaker 2: he discovered it by you know, some weird conjuring.
• 34:34
  Speaker 3: So Sati goes a chiropractor like all her shoulders and y,
• 34:39
  Speaker 3: I mean in her if she has strep throat. No,
• 34:42
  Speaker 3: you know what I'm saying, Like that we treat ourselves.
• 34:47
  Speaker 3: We with some other elderberries.
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: Right, here's some bleach. No, Yeah, I don't know.
• 34:52
  Speaker 3: I think that there's I think there's you know when
• 34:54
  Speaker 3: I want all things in moderation right in the h
• 34:57
  Speaker 3: and yeah, when I was younger, I would have been
• 34:59
  Speaker 3: way more like traditional medicine.
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: My wife works, you know, worked in the er and
• 35:03
  Speaker 1: all the things.
• 35:04
  Speaker 3: And I think we're both kind of the place of yes,
• 35:06
  Speaker 3: tradition medicine, Yes, especially for emergencies.
• 35:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 35:09
  Speaker 3: Also there's a lot of homeopathic or a lot of
• 35:12
  Speaker 3: chiropractic or other things that could be beneficial to you
• 35:14
  Speaker 3: in a holistic way.
• 35:15
  Speaker 2: That's always off the opinion of like, if you're in
• 35:17
  Speaker 2: a mall and somebody is giving away something free, if
• 35:21
  Speaker 2: you'll just fill out a survey with a clipboard that
• 35:23
  Speaker 2: he's holding, I'm immediately suspicious, right, And that's what chiropractors
• 35:29
  Speaker 2: did for years and years. I mean I don't they
• 35:30
  Speaker 2: still do it, but like for decades they be in
• 35:32
  Speaker 2: the mall. Yeah, hey, you with the hunch. I've got
• 35:37
  Speaker 2: a hunch we can help you.
