  Don't just leave them sitting outside the door on the table, 'cause fruit flies- And they, they love that shit... love beer. They love some beer. Who doesn't? Hmm. Smart fruit flies, those are.
• 0:48
  No, you put it at the front, away from here. Oh, we're out of chopsticks. And I can Miyagi Do karate. Yeah, ex- except all the 55 gallon drums that are here for recycling are full that I can tell.
• 1:01
  Somebody needs to take that in and- I have noticed that. Uh- Buy a six-pack... buy more beer. Lookit, like a six-pack's worth of money. No, come on. Those things, you could get at least a 30-pack of hams. Doubt it.
• 1:10
  Admission, I have not watched any, uh, any season of Cobra Kai yet. Oh. I, but then- I'm baking it up. One, we're on the- We're, we're all on the fifth season of Cobra Kai now... I know.
• 1:19
  Well, I'm baking up, so when I just, I have to like just be, uh... just watch something for- Yeah... a while. Oh, sure. I was prepared to say, "This is the stupidest thing in the world," but really it's not that bad.
• 1:30
  [laughs] And like, really, how many years later is this? Well, y- I love the- Miyagi Do... I lo- well, no, it's, uh, what's-his-face. The guy, uh, the villain, the '80s villain dude. Well, there's multiple villains.
• 1:45
  There's Johnny. Yeah, yeah. Johnny. That's who I'm talking about. Johnny. There's also the, the- No, Johnny. He, he was also in- There's also the Cobra Kai sensei. He w- he was the, the dude in the, um, Back to School.
• 1:57
  That- I don't recall his name... ah, come on. He's a blonde guy. He doesn't really look much different. Zabka. He's got a really hard vowel named. Um. What have you. Well- Welcome to the Full Spectrum- Yeah, uh...
• 2:08
  Cycling, uh, Podcast, and I am JK. I'm- To my right is- Tony... all right. Uh- I don't know if we had the introductions. Oh. And if we didn't, we're not- Oh, I thought we were just getting into movie reviews right away.
• 2:18
  This is- No, we just went over to the- It's the Sven. Where, you, so you got the Sven. I, I do have a question right away, though. Is- No, it's not right away. I'm just- [laughs]... questioning
• 2:27
  if we're starting at the top of the hill. Side of the hill. What, which hill are we on now? Side, side of the hill. We're on the side of the hill. Side of the hill? It's a tall hill.
• 2:39
  Uh, I don't, I- So, t- side of the hill necessitates some hams. [metal clanging] We know... Yeah, exactly. Very soft. Just a, it's a small softy. Yeah.
• 2:47
  It, we're, we're be- this hill has been benched in real nicely, so we're just- Yeah... climbing still a little bit. Yeah, exactly. Right. Yeah. We're like, uh, the goats on the side of, uh, Al Johnson's restaurant.
• 2:57
  Just- Oh. Roof, not the sides. Well, they're getting- They're on the sides... they have to- Whatever... they have to get up there somehow. Come on... it's a ladder. They, they can't just fly up to the roof.
• 3:04
  I'm pretty sure it's a ladder. Uh, I think it, they come right out of the truck. Could be air. Don't punch holes- I think they live on top of the truck... in my boat or my roof. Gotcha. Yeah, so. There you go. Yeah.
• 3:14
  So that's Full Spectrum Cycling, folks. I think we said that already. Ah. That's good. We're gonna say it. It's Full Spectrum Cycling, folks. It's branding, man. That's what we're, that's what we're doing here right now.
• 3:24
  [laughs] We're branding. We're branding ourselves. We're trying to be influencers. Mm-hmm. Right. We, we- I was called, I was called... we influence well over one person. Right. Two. Two peoples.
• 3:35
  I got called an influencer. I don't know. How many people- We could be influencing this weekend. I got called it once, and it was very- Like tomorrow... yeah- Odd to me to hear that...
• 3:44
  I, I'm, I'm calling tomorrow's ride Steel Is Real: The Unheralded. Sure. Hmm. Since we really didn't do anything to promote it at all. And suddenly there's gonna be a lot of people.
• 3:55
  [laughs] Well, it's just sort of s- I sent, like, notes to five people. We're just thinking about doing this thing, and tell some friends, and we'll see how many people show up. I- Take it back to its roots...
• 4:06
  I didn't, yeah, I didn't- Back to its roots... wanna make a huge deal about it, but now we have a real ride going, so- Well, someone clearly- We got-... told Sam, because he sent me a message, "You riding?" He- Yeah.
• 4:14
  Sent him a thing. Oh, man. But he has to bail out to do- Yeah, he, he-... some strongman thing. At Bay View Bash. Which, by the way- Whoa, whoa, it's on the way... it's on the way, will be after the ride.
• 4:25
  See, the ride isn't- Well, yes... gonna go till 7:00 or 8:00 or 10:00 like some of these have. Mm-hmm. It's just gonna go until 3:00 in the afternoon or something. What, what time? 3:30 the- Gravelers...
• 4:34
  grav- the Gravelers go on. Gravelers. Over at the, uh- We should, we-... WMLC stage... we should probably definitely see that. At the Bay View Bash.
• 4:40
  Hey, if you're in Milwaukee this weekend- I mean, everything is gonna be awesome, but- You're gonna wanna go to the Bay View Bash... that's an identifiable awesome. I think so. I think Bay View Bash will be fun.
• 4:48
  That's 11:00 AM to 10:00 PM. There's at least four- No. Oh, yeah... stages of music. 9:15 PM. That's how they... funny, they say it, there's at least four stages. Was it five? Well, it's at least four, though.
• 4:58
  So probably five. Maybe four and three quarters. Right? How do you pull that off? 'Cause there's that little platform where Harry Potter gets on the train over there. Oh.
• 5:06
  [laughs] Oh, Christ, I almost went Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. Oh. And then- Dick Van Dyke you. Mm-hmm. Just like, "Like travelers, that's us. No frillies."
• 5:18
  So I, I also, I also visited our food, the, the main food stop today, uh, just to make sure that they know we're coming. It's gotten a little more spendy. Oh, Lord. I looked at the damn... Whoa.
• 5:30
  But it, but it's real food, too. We've- Sure. Sure, sure, sure... we've stopped at this place before. Yeah, it's different ownership, but- And they had the, like- [laughs]... in the olden days, they- Hubcap burgers.
• 5:38
  [laughs] Yeah, the freezer burger or- The hubcap burgers. [laughs] Freezer burritos and freezer chicken wings. That's awesome. I think this is a little bit more- Upscale... more gooder food. What was on the menu?
• 5:51
  What'd you have, by the way? I didn't eat any food. I just- I just looked at the menu... stopped and talked. Here's a clue as to where we're going. The lovely lady's, one of the owner's name is Amber And her dad, Tom Oh.
• 6:02
  And they also own some bowling alley somewhere. Why not? But you know what? It's tomorrow. If [laughs] anybody listens to this podcast- Yeah... that's in Milwaukee, it's not like we're gonna give this away too much.
• 6:12
  Right. But if you are gonna go on the ride, we're meeting at Hollander at 10:00, and promptly at 10:30, we are rolling out of there- To the nomad... to, to- Oh, um, sorry... to the north or south. Probably not east.
• 6:24
  Probably not east. 'Cause we can't go very far east 'cause of the lake. I can... I made it so last year. Mm-hmm. Yeah, it was a good... I, we're kind of following- Well, I was build-... some of the route...
• 6:32
  I was building, I was building stretch at that time. At what point did Dave Lunz- So you're welcome world... exactly screw- You're welcome everybody of the last year... up. Which, which [laughs]...
• 6:41
  Where did he screw the ride up? I don't remember. It was from, uh, Burn- The Palapa to somewhere? No, no, no, no, no. No? No. No, it was from, uh- Oh, no... um, the, uh, Mc, the other Barnacle Buds. McKeiernan's? Yeah.
• 6:58
  We're not going there, by the way. And, uh, that one to the next stop. Okay. Well, this is- Valiant... uh, once again, DFL- So it's not this one, so- Once again, if Dave's even on this, um- DFL...
• 7:12
  DFL stands for Don't Follow Lunz. [laughs] They're both really good. Okay. So, uh- It was better... this is a good time to mention this. Uh, I, I put up- [laughs]...
• 7:23
  the other day, couple, couple, two or three days ago there- Love you, Dave... I put up the SingleSpeed USA recap show with Spinner and Chewy, and the return of Sav.
• 7:33
  And if anybody has ever heard Sav on a podcast, I would recommend you listen to that podcast, 'cause he's, he's, he's quite the entertaining fellow, and, uh, he's back. Was he not on the show 100 of the Fat the Bike?
• 7:46
  I think he even came here to visit, didn't he? Or something. Yeah, for the, uh- Yeah... extravaganza with the police bikes. Oh, that was- I think I met him there, yeah...
• 7:52
  that was probably the best party we threw as Fatbike.com. It was pretty insane. Certainly one of the best.
• 7:57
  Some of those over at the, uh, Illinois Beach, uh, Convention Center and Visitor Bureau area were pretty nice too, but- Exactly. Are you in the middle of a thought? I am in the middle of a beer thought.
• 8:09
  [laughs] [bell ringing] All right. I beat you guys. Oh, are we already up to the top? Well, it's just sitting there, and time is fast. All right. I'm gonna save this h- partial hams for later. Yes.
• 8:21
  So- It's a good chaser... one thing I did wanna mention. [laughs] So if you are gonna listen to, which there's a link in the show notes too, but it's also on the fullspectrumcycling.com website.
• 8:32
  [laughs] The SingleSpeed USA recap show, and it was recommended that you have several Busch Lights, because app- apparently that's the official beer of Iowa according to those guys. Ugh, why not? Eh.
• 8:42
  Another reason not to go to Iowa. Eh. I thought we should probably, instead of the hams that we normally have, maybe, maybe suck down some beer water in a different format at some point just to- You would confuse me...
• 8:53
  but, but, uh, okay... it would, it'd be frighten and confuse, and I'd be a lot drunker right now. As, as Miller area livers, just my liver cannot stand Busch and/or any Budweiser product. Totally. Mm-hmm.
• 9:07
  Rice- I can barely go Coors... it's, it's like, it's like- Rice is not nice... it's like being a Bears fan in Milwaukee. Who, why? Oh, shit.
• 9:14
  On the way, on the way home, I saw a Bears sticker on the back of a truck with Minnesota plates in Wisconsin. Wow. There was a lot going on there. There's exactly one of those going on right now. Yeah. Yeah.
• 9:30
  [laughs] I was like, I'm like, uh... And, well, and you know they were on the way to, what's the fourth one in, uh, heading to, uh, fucking Detroit. Right on. [laughs] Get them all in there.
• 9:42
  You know, it was like, mm, I had to. You, you- [laughs] It took me a second... you gu- you guys know how to keep bears out of your backyard, right? Put an end zone in it.
• 9:53
  [laughs] Oh, thank God that Steel Is Real is going on this weekend. Oh, yeah. No, there was a thread of, uh, going down to the South Side of Chicago. Oh. I mean, I lo- I, I don't mind, I don't mind going down there.
• 10:05
  Not necessary... but, but if there's something- Plus Baby Bash... better, yeah, yeah, there's a lot. Yeah. This is the end of summer. There's not a reason to leave Milwaukee this weekend. No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
• 10:14
  No, no, no, no, no. Well, since we're at the top- But it is-... of the hill and talking other stuff, let's- Oh, yeah... let's talk- Let's talk about what's up there... oh, yeah. I'm here.
• 10:20
  We have, we have had this beer in the past. Thank you, JK. We have. I'm glad we're having it again. Yeah, it's fantastic. It is the Foggy Geezer, 'cause I'm the foggiest of the geezers. From the War Pig.
• 10:30
  From the War Pig. He's now in the 50s. I'm in the 50s now. He's now in the 50s. [sighs] [beer glugs] [sighs] That's the sound of rehydration. Fuck, he's old.
• 10:38
  I will, I will put the picture that Michael took of the six-pack of Foggy Geezer. Oh, with the demon? Because... Yeah, it's this weird thing in their house that's actually, like, it's bed springs, right? Yeah.
• 10:49
  It's this demon- It's a painting of a demon that's living under your bed, but it's on their wall. Fuck yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It's pretty cool. It's, it- Somebody did a nice job with it...
• 10:57
  the, the canvas is an old bed spring. I, I, I did see that, and yeah- Yeah... that is really cool. [burps] Well- So- Even under a bed... we're kinda jumping all over the place, but, uh- Yeah, why not, man?
• 11:07
  We're, we're still at- It's, yeah, it's my birthday month, so I'm gonna take all executive privileges everywhere. I did that in my meeting today too, at work. Ha ha.
• 11:16
  I, I- I just kinda took it over, and I was just like, "Uh-uh, you motherfuckers are late." [smacks lips] Yeah, I don't really... "Hey, you didn't give a care about my time.
• 11:25
  I don't give a shit about what the hell you're gonna say." So yeah, one, two, thank. I'm Mississippi too. This is me, and we're done. Let me get down to the swinging door so I can get my damn hotdog. [laughs] How was it?
• 11:37
  Awesome. How, how does the rest of the week look? We could do a quick ride around the old route maybe. I don't know. Eh. Eh. I gotta get my car, or we gotta get the car back to my mom. Oh.
• 11:50
  [laughs] So Steel Is Real, you know, which, which- It'll work out so nicely... which steed, do, do you have a steed picked for the ride yet? I'm gonna use that piece of shit. The purple People Eater? Yeah.
• 12:00
  Well, if people are whining about my, mm, speed and- So you should ride a single speed where they- Can't follow you up the hill 'cause they gotta switch their gears. That, well, my- Right...
• 12:10
  my point, well, my intention last year was to ride the low side. Oh, yeah. And, well, the Friday night- Debacle... kinda whatever. So I rode back from Lunza's at, like,
• 12:25
  3:00 in the morning to my house to lay down for an hour, and then [laughs] Yeah... and then, and then, like, recombobulate, and I'm just like, "I ain't digging that"... No. That is, that is, uh- And- Yeah.
• 12:39
  That's a reason... yeah, everything about last year kinda was a foggy- Yeah. Well, I- A foggy geezer- It is... as in the thing. You know, it, it, yeah. But- Apologies in- I had fun... reverse on that. Oh, yeah. Yeah.
• 12:50
  Eventually. I don't... If, if people didn't have fun, it's not really our fault. It's their- Right. There you go. Was that earlier last year? I can't remember. Yeah.
• 12:56
  If you were, if you were leaning on me to be your m- Well, this year- My years blur together... it'll be a little bit better probably I thought I missed last year's. I don't remember. 'Cause I had something going on.
• 13:04
  Nobody remembers last year. Yeah, some of them. Yeah. I think I had something going on. Yeah. I remember that Spinner and Chewy were there. Yeah, and there was blood on knees and whatever, but it was funny.
• 13:14
  Well, you know, I- Well, Spinner was so le- Oh, I was there. I was there. Now I remember. Yeah. So- Le- leaking from the knee Right. With Steel Is Real- [laughs]... traditionally, it's been a judging of bikes.
• 13:26
  This year, it's going to be judging of people. Judging of soul, of will. Yeah, so we have, we, we may have some schwag, and there may be...
• 13:33
  I don't remember what my ideas were, but skinned knees and/or bleeding profusely is a schwagable- Yeah. Absolutely... you know, uh- Don't do it-... situation... but it is. Yeah. I don't know.

• 17:00
  Yes, and then I slept in until 2:00 [laughs] in the afternoon. Perfect. [laughs] Well, it was good 'cause the Polka Riot, we took some energy. Exactly, and then it was like, "Oh, wait.
• 17:11
  November Criminals are not going on for another hour? Let's go to Casa D'Alberto." [laughs] Oh, yeah. And then- I forgot about that. That mid, mid-concert stop, we just, "Oh, it's right over there.
• 17:22
  Well, let's, we'll go eat." It was awesome. I, I need fuel. Otherwise, I will perish. Yeah. November Criminals- That, that-... was good.
• 17:29
  The, uh- Well, and then you were boo-hooing the world going like, "It is, like, eight leagues away. Oh- We, but-... it's gonna take us forever." It did. You had, like, a weird fucking, uh, point. I don't know.

  It, it, it just was, we got there in perfect timing to see- Yeah, but you thought- Which band did you want to see before Daikaiju? We got there- Devil's T. Devil's T. Yeah. Devil's T. Devil's T.
• 17:50
  There was freaking- Perfect timing. Yes. What about the theremin action with the dude playing bass? That was so cool. He, he, that was, I talked to him after the show. I'm like, "Dude, that was awesome."
• 18:02
  Well, it also was just awesome to be, like, hanging out in the smoking lounge or the out, the out patio, and I mean, they're dressed as sailors and whatever. [laughs] So it's just very odd to be like- Hello.
• 18:17
  [laughs] I don't know. Yeah. It was a long, long- It was good... long- It was a good show. Plus the Daikaiju. Yeah. Disappointingly- I-... lacking of much in the flame department I missed...
• 18:29
  Well, apparently- And who was the young lady? No, no, no. Apparently, on the other side- Well, they always change members, or often change members Yeah. Yeah. It's the first time I've seen a- I, I met-...
• 18:37
  female member... apparently, on the other side of the, uh, building, that's where the flamage occurred. Oh, okay. On the street side? Yeah. Huh. Yeah. Well, they lit a couple drums on fire- Yeah...
• 18:48
  but there's apparently a fire- No, no. They went outside and had a-... a fire marshal thing at that venue- Yeah... where they can't torch- Well-... everything like they have last time. All... No.
• 18:55
  Okay, let's put it this way. They were standing on top of their own [laughs] van, lighting it on fire- Yeah, I've seen this... and da, da, da, da, and going like, "Okay, we're done. Go in the van and leave."
• 19:08
  And that's what they did. Oh, okay. You know? So- But they didn't... Well, they weren't playing anymore. They were just firing the van up. Yeah. Right on. Yeah. I've got a very nice picture- [laughs]...
• 19:16
  of them with flames at a different show, which was- Yes, I... Well, I saw you-... post on to the-... on stage, for Christ sake. That was hilarious [laughs] shit. Oh. You know what happened there?
• 19:23
  I'll tell you what happened there. Yeah. There, uh- No... there was Mike, the other Mike- Yeah, yeah... the Michael Law. Law. Mr.- Mr.
• 19:30
  Yuck was there doing p- photography, and we were talking to the social media director for the X-Ray Arcade, Evan. And he's like, uh... 'Cause I was [laughs] trying to get up there to get a crowd shot.
• 19:42
  He's like, "Hey, hold on for a second, man." And then we started talking, and he's like, "Oh, oh, okay. Yeah, yeah, go ahead." So I was like, "Stop." Because Daikaiju does not play on the stage. They play- No...
• 19:51
  in the middle of the crowd. No, no. Yeah. Where they should- Which is- 'Cause it was awesome... yeah, it turned out great. Oh, it was a good show. You're right. They... It was devoid of a lot of the usual fire.
• 20:00
  But they still kicked haze. Oh, it was fantastic. Yeah, I ran into- And I always forget X-Ray Arcade serves food. They- Do they? It... Are d- are they freezer burgers? I don't know.
• 20:12
  [laughs] I saw a couple of people ordering food. I'm like, "Whoa. What? Really?" Every time I go down to the Cut, ugh, hey, I always wanna find out and remember...
• 20:21
  I know it's only, like, probably, like, two blocks from X-Ray is where the, uh, bowling alley is. Mm. On one of the Bill rides, where we ended up there, and then I went outside. And I'm just going, like- Oh.
• 20:34
  I, I was gonna- Yeah, I forgot about that... and then I went outside, and I'm just like, "I just wanna go out for a smoke." And a downdraft of beautiful bacon smell. I was like, [sniffs] "Oh, I could live here."
• 20:47
  There you go. I, and oh, property value right in that downdraft would be so amazing. For certain people. Yeah, right. Well, yeah. Probably not vegans, but who cares? No, maybe, m- actually, probably for vegans.
• 21:02
  Hey, all you can- Make them stay vegans... uh, all you can smell- No... or smell. For free. Yeah. Eat your paste or whatever. Yeah, you could probably almost get the flavor- You know, and then you just get-...
• 21:12
  from the, well, yeah... just- Mm. Gets st- yeah, nose, mouth, and ears, sight, then- With bacon flavor... yeah. You get the bacon smell, and that takes care of one of them. Hey, guess- Am I still blathering?
• 21:24
  [laughs] Guess, guess what, Tony. Tony, guess what. We got a crypto minute today. What's on the crypto menu? Well, I think it happens, like, in about
• 21:32
  25 minutes ago, two days ago on Wednesday, that the Ethereum merge is happening, where Ethereum goes from proof of work to proof of stake. Oh, wow. Okay. So that, uh...
• 21:43
  They've been running that test net for, like, two years, but it's in an effort to cut down on energy consumption and have a different way to validate- As it should... the blockchain. As it should. So I'm curious.
• 21:56
  How are, uh- Is it gonna make us richer? Now that we're into the crypto minute- Richer or poorer? [laughs] Now that we're into the crypto minute, how are your miners doing, Gregory? Gregory, how are... Uh, Sven.

• 22:11
  Sometimes it does upwards of, uh, you know, I don't know,.3 or.5 per day. Which is- The one at the shop here, it doesn't do that well. I'm wondering if it's the neighborhood, because- It's the location.
• 22:25
  I think- I'm, it's, sure, 100%... the, the, the one at the iLLuminati is kicking booty. The big black cock is gone. It is. It's- And I think that might have been- Maybe that was-... our bringer of sorrows- [laughs]...
• 22:42
  on this one. Um- The listeners may not know what that is. Well- Oh, we've talked about it in- Yeah... several other shows... many other shows.
• 22:49
  We've also said it's gone, but I'm not sure if everyone realizes it's this gigantic strap-on. Yeah, I'm sure they do, 'cause we've talked about it- Yeah... in several previous shows.
• 22:57
  [laughs] Oh, we're saying it again, yeah. It may have been in a picture even in a show notes. No, we are not... No, we are m- If you wanna know what we're talking about- We-... go back and listen to- Yes...

  of listening pleasure, mostly, listening to Full Spectrum Cycling. Yes. Think about it..com After, after we have- Dot com... shed our motor- mortal coils, we will be out in there in perpetuity.
• 23:31
  People will just be going, "Uh, uh, uh, uh." Well, after we all go- Listening, listening. There's gonna be just this bored ass- You know what those people are called? V- v- v- Fucked up... going like, "Oh man, they were

  He's 70, like, 2 years old. Oh, you got some schmutz on your face there- Oh, thank you... yeah, right there. Um, I, uh- Ah, you two... apparently if you, if you Indiegogo it for 399, is this a scam? Come on.
• 24:39
  Is this thing real? Yeah. Is it really 400 bucks? That, that's your Indiegogo-go-go-go-go. Okay. Which, to be fair- To be fair... I have not had good luck with Indiegogo. I've only gotten one of them, whatever.
• 24:50
  I'm not- Kickstarter, much more likely to go... I'm not good- Indiegogo, not so good... I'm not good for the scamming. I'd love it. I'd love to be.
• 24:56
  I'm still waiting for my helmet from Park and Diamond, because it was the one you can fold up. Yeah, and it hasn't come yet. Where's my helm? I keep hearing- Hail moot...
• 25:04
  well, to be, to, to their credit- To be fair, to be credit... they've, they've sent out, out about $70 worth of updates at least, so scum. Wait, we got manufacturing. Oh, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
• 25:15
  You should probably make sure your address is still the same three years later in case we decide to ever ship these things. Oh, Lord. Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Wow.
• 25:23
  I did, I did a battle for, uh, for a speaker from one, and it was fun. It was fun after a while. Did you, did you win? Oh, yeah. Were you a winner? Yeah. I got my money- Everybody that backs is a winner...
• 25:34
  I g- I got my money back- It's a winner... and it was just like, "Oh, shit, this is just a non-company blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah." It was fun.
• 25:42
  Well, the thing is, you're not really supposed to get your money back, are you? It was a cool- No... it's not mandatory that you get money back... it was a cool item that I have not seen since then, dude.
• 25:51
  And they gave you your money back? Fuck yeah. Huh, I would not give you your money back. I'd say- I stamped my feet a long enough time- You're, you're a s- I'm an only child, I shit you not. I know how to do this.
• 26:00
  I can- You're a stupid sucker for backing Indiegogo... I can do this all day. That's not- You think Ca- you think Captain America started that? I could do this all day. [laughs] What about Captain Caveman?

• 26:32
  "I'm not doing-" Taking a picture of Captain Caveman, folks. Captain Caveman. Where's your, uh, your- I know... stick of power? That's what I was doing... or whatever the hell that thing was.
• 26:44
  [laughs] Uh, hey, here's something everybody ought to know in case they wanna have their voice, uh, recorded for perpetuity. 717. 727- 727... 2453. You can call us and- Bye... talk on the show. Hey. Or leave a message.
• 27:01
  We are- Hey. You know, just leave a message. Yeah. We'll throw it in the show. Leave hey. No big whoop. Unless it's, unless it's Dave- No big whoop... then I won't put it in there. [laughs] No big whoop.

  Oh, I might make it. You never know. No big whoop. You never know. We'll just put some butter on it. Just slurry it out a little. Oh, I'm gonna have a picture of, uh, of my son.
• 27:16
  He was in the NICA, second NICA race last week at Minooka. Mm. Guess what was happening on Saturday? Was that a lot of rain? We had, like, six inches of rain. Oh.
• 27:23
  I saw a lot, I, I saw, uh, pictures of a lot of the Shoreweed, uh- Oh, he l-... MTBs just slathered... he loves, he loves rain- It was froggling, man...
• 27:31
  and he wasn't really that sad about it, and he did way better than he normally does in the rain- There you go... because he was happy. And a, I got a picture of him all muddy, smiling, which is nice.
• 27:41
  [laughs] That was- [laughs]... serious rain... I'm glad. Yeah. Guess what? It rained inside the shop again, too. [laughs] A lot. Yeah. I came, I came inside- Well, I mean, we got five inches of rain.
• 27:51
  I saw- I saw- Okay, this, okay, so okay, okay, okay- I saw it, it came out of the west... okay, okay, okay, so wait. Okay, okay. Wait, okay. Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay. Okay, okay. I was freaky in the drive-through.
• 27:59
  But what I'm saying here about this is the, the standard line from the people who either own or lease us the space in the building is, "Oh, yeah, it was, like, a once in a hundred year thing."
• 28:11
  I w- Now it's been three times in a year. [laughs] No, I went back. It's been eight times that we've had significant rain here that has caused ingress of water into the space. That is not once in a hundred years.
• 28:24
  That's normal. [sighs] Okay? Water doesn't belong- That's alternative... inside my building. It belongs outside where, where it lives. Yeah. Unless I have to flush the toilet because there's poopies in it. Mm-hmm. Mm.
• 28:36
  I ran into the Steve [laughs] when I was, on the Monday. [laughs] And I w- he's like, "Hi, uh," I was like, "I'm, how you doing?" And to myself I'm going like, "I'm putting out fires remotely."
• 28:49
  And he's like, "I am doing the same over here." [laughs] Right, okay. So, so the actual, the, the actual building owner's rep was over here looking at it and saying, "Yeah, we should probably take care of this."
• 29:00
  I'm like, "Okay. Thank God somebody can take care of it." Yep. I know how to, I know how to say those words. Yeah, well. Gorgeous windows. You look great there.
• 29:08
  [laughs] Shit, dude, welcome to my- With those sliding doors- Not brand-new windows... just a bunch of sliding doors. Yeah. What do you think that would cost? What? Like, 100 grand?
• 29:15
  How much would all those windows cost to do as sliding- Just here? Yeah. No. Like, 10 maybe. Get out of here. Yeah. No. Just the door is three grand, and it's- Th- those great big windows?
• 29:27
  Are, are there any window people in our audience? 'Cause we have- Yeah, you should come and see us. Yes. We've got s- Give us a quote... we've got 60 feet of windows. 1,900, 888. 60 feet by six feet tall. Smog.
• 29:38
  So six times six, 360 square feet of windows or something, right? I don't know. It's big, I'm telling you that. And it also, it rains inside. Yeah. Somewhere, some- I c- I can feel the rain... some, somehow upwards.
• 29:52
  I can feel the rain. Good Lord. I feel the rain. I feel the rain. I feel the rain. Uh, well, there's a bunch of crap on here we'll get to next week, but, uh, uh- All right. See, see y'all guys tomorrow, right?
• 30:02
  You know what? Here's the, okay. No, here's one, here's one more thing. See them all tomorrow.
• 30:04
  I guess, you know, we've suckered Chewy into making shows, and by gosh, he made a great show, that one that we talked about earlier, and I'm gonna guess that's gonna be the show that gets the most listens on our network at this point, because, well, lots of people went to that, and lots of people are into sping- spingle-speed schmi-schma-schmay.
• 30:23
  It's Chewy. But, uh, if any of you other po- uh, aspiring podcasters would like to have a platform for putting your cycling/blathering-oriented podcast out there, by cracky, we'll put it up on our thing.
• 30:37
  And- You know who you are, and you know who to talk to. Come on, I know. Right. And we won't even make you- Dan... wait nine weeks to do it... we'll see you next week. No. All right. I guess that's it.
• 30:46
  JK's saying he's calling the show, so bye. Oh.
