See you got a Sprite 0, sugar, lemon, lime.
0:03
It's about the only thing my tummy can handle right now.
0:06
They've got that, that stomach flu that's been going around and
0:11
it's hit a few of us and it seemed to, I'm on like day four
0:15
or five now and it's not well. I mean, it's well for the weight
0:20
loss. I've lost like 6 lbs.
0:22
But it's crazy to imagine how much is inside of you that you
0:25
can, you know, get out and and pound it.
0:30
I have, I have managed that a lot, quite often, many times a
0:35
day. So Sprite is about the only
0:40
thing I can handle. I can't even like, you know,
0:43
normally I don't finish my coffees.
0:44
But come on, we know, we all know what you want to do.
0:47
Yep, up you go. Yep.
0:50
He had a dingleberry hanging from his butt for a long time on
0:54
our walk. Yeah.
0:56
It was nasty. It eventually fell out on its
0:58
own. I thought I was going to have to
0:59
pry it out. A lot of talk of rear ranting so
1:02
far in this podcast. Yeah, engages the crowd pretty
1:06
quickly. Yeah.
1:07
But anyways, you know, I don't normally finish my drinks all
1:11
the way, but like, coffees, you know, I'll leave like this with
1:13
my I can't drink. But like this much of a coffee
1:16
right now, nothing's just settling very well.
1:20
So we were talking about dinner, the thought of dinner.
1:27
So am I on my own for supper? You might be.
1:30
I mean, I can make you a spaghetti squash, but it's an
1:32
awful waste of a spaghetti squash.
1:33
I'll. Do something else.
1:35
I'll come up with something. This light's not on.
1:37
Do you have your phone? We can turn it on.
1:40
On Hue. Let me get on my digital device
1:43
here and just. I haven't connected to the app
1:46
yet on my new phone so I'm I still am haven't done it.
1:51
All on. Yeah.
1:54
Well, yeah, another week, another week on the pod.
1:57
Definitely. If you haven't already, hit
1:59
subscribe on YouTube. We gained a ton of subscribers
2:02
last week when I did that. They call it A, they call it a
2:07
call to action. Yeah, yeah, CTA call to action.
2:13
So when I did that call to action, yeah, it really it did
2:17
well. So I'm doing another CTA call to
2:20
action. Subscribe onto YouTube.
2:23
Five stars on Spotify, five stars on Apple.
2:26
I think that's how they do it. And yeah, help the pod grow.
2:31
How's the job hunt going, champ? Well, I should hear from one
2:35
within a couple of days here. You know, it wasn't the, you
2:40
know, for California, it's not the best paying job in the
2:43
world, but it would be a job. However, looks like there may be
2:48
a hold up in the get out of the Navy process as we should have
2:53
all assumed would happen with my track record.
2:58
You know, turns out they never processed my separation package.
3:06
It's t -, 2 days till the the end of my orders.
3:10
So most likely what will happen is there will be a modification
3:14
to my orders, which means like two more paychecks or so or
3:17
more, who knows, you know, And yeah, so, you know, to keep the
3:24
job search going, the remote finding is what's been
3:28
difficult. Well, you know, it's a very
3:32
remote's probably the top of a lot of people's list, so it's
3:35
for sure very competitive. But it's, you know,
3:38
surprisingly. Maybe I need to start looking at
3:41
some other websites, but surprisingly just not seeing a
3:46
lot of them, yeah. They might get swooped up really
3:49
fast or something like that. I mean too much like this bow
3:53
because that this is a bow in a giveaway right now that after
3:57
this pod comes out, it's only available two more days.
3:59
I'm going to have to burp. On the Instagram page.
4:02
So if you want a chance to win the bow, go to the Bow disciples
4:06
page. Find this post, it's pinned to
4:08
the top, has the instructions how to enter.
4:11
It's completely free. Oh my God.
4:18
I cannot help what does. Go so anyway.
4:25
This is, doesn't it be a hilarious short if you bend my
4:28
face through that whole process? Wow.
4:31
Continue. The stuff.
4:33
The stuff I do for content anyway yeah go to the Instagram
4:39
it's got all the information to win this Eva Shockey Gen. 3
4:42
custom dipped totally free and and actually has an added bonus
4:47
we're going to throw in the site which was also dipped the
4:51
quiver, which was also dipped and probably a stabilizer bar,
4:57
but for sure a. Site.
4:59
But for sure a site and a quiver that match the depth of the
5:03
cams. So it's almost going to be a
5:06
complete bow. So that's a killer deal,
5:08
especially if it's a left-handed lady or kid or someone smaller.
5:12
But I mean she's a sick bow. So really well balanced based on
5:17
that CP28 platform. So I mean it's a really nice
5:20
bow. It's got flipped and it's.
5:21
Technically not. I call it like a starter bow for
5:23
women. It's not a starter bow for
5:25
women. It's a flagship bow for women,
5:27
but for women, it's just a. It is great to start with.
5:32
You know, it's got a good set of poundage.
5:35
You could drop all the way down to 40 lbs, maybe in a little
5:37
less. You know, if you really back her
5:39
out. Which for women is perfect.
5:43
Yeah, it's got flip disk, it's got time lock, it's got
5:46
deadlock. They could YouTube how to do
5:49
those things it's got. Grip lock.
5:50
So it I mean it has all the current tech of bow tech.
5:53
I mean, it's a new bow, so definitely shoot.
5:55
Around and play. Have fun in the yard.
5:57
Go to some 3D shoots with your your hubby or friends or what
6:01
not. If you don't typically shoot but
6:03
you want to try it out, you know you don't go to buy expensive
6:06
arrows if you don't want to. But just have fun and get
6:10
outdoors. It's something to do.
6:12
Yeah, yeah. So I think it's a killer deal
6:14
for somebody. Hopefully whoever wins makes it
6:18
out to Boat Disciples Challenge 3 as well.
6:21
I mean, can't wait. It's coming.
6:22
By the time this episode drops, ticket sales are only three days
6:26
away. So yeah, February 1st, if you're
6:30
military, past or present, be sure you get on the website
6:33
right away and try to take advantage of those 20 free
6:36
tickets. Yeah, So the way that'll work,
6:38
we should probably, you should probably do a real or short or
6:41
something with this too. But it'll be a pop up on the
6:44
screen. You know, how like some websites
6:46
do the, you know, subscribe for 10% off, but it's not, it's just
6:50
a pop up that'll pop up and say, you know, submit for your free
6:56
military pass and all you'd asked for is your first, last
6:59
e-mail and this year proof of verification that you are
7:03
active. Obviously, please, you know,
7:05
blur out your PII as we call it, personal identification
7:09
information if it's on there. But you submit that and then you
7:14
will get back to them in an e-mail with a code that they can
7:18
go and purchase their ticket for free.
7:20
Yes, yes. So definitely do that.
7:23
Super excited to get those tickets up and running.
7:26
Oh my goodness. Our bowls just struggling.
7:29
You 2 are just Hiccup and over there, yeah, you made some
7:32
tweaks to your bow, new quiver, the new airlock quiver, which I
7:36
will say. I just looking at it, I'm a fan.
7:39
Well, I've ran the airlock for quite a while and I really enjoy
7:43
the quiver. I like it how you're running it
7:46
better than my first one where I had two two things.
7:50
I like it better with just one, which is how I run it now.
7:53
Your sits further from the bow from the mine because it comes
7:57
off of the site. Mine goes straight to the riser
7:59
so it's. Because my site is not through
8:01
the in inlay. No, that's just how they set it
8:04
up at the shop. But but yeah, no, it looks good,
8:08
matching camo, really nice look. And then also you got new
8:13
strings, new unbound strings on there, brand new.
8:16
You haven't even shot it yet. So fresh, fresh, fresh set of
8:20
strings. Got to love that.
8:22
I also got fresh strings from Unbound.
8:26
So yeah, the bows are ready to RIP and dialed in.
8:30
So just in time for 3D stuff. And then you got your your Vaps.
8:34
Right here, which I need to get. I'd like to get set up before.
8:39
Sorry, I don't know if it's going to be throw up or whatever
8:45
time, you never know. I would like to get them set up
8:49
before we go to Yuma in like a little less than two weeks.
8:56
You. Better go like tomorrow then.
8:57
Yeah. Yeah, So we're going to Yuma.
9:00
Forgot about that. That's a good mention.
9:02
We're going to that. It's high noon on the Heela.
9:05
It's part of a Triple Crown. Series.
9:07
I wish we were doing the whole Triple Crown, but they're just.
9:09
Who knows? I mean, maybe, but I'm for sure
9:11
doing that. Stop competing.
9:13
I don't know if you'll compete, but I'm definitely competing.
9:15
You haven't decided. You haven't decided.
9:17
I know I'm going to compete. I'll probably bring the hunting
9:19
bow rather than the target bow. And yeah, should be fun.
9:24
It's 40 targets. It's not a lot.
9:26
It's 20 a day for two days. And we're going to actually do a
9:29
booth. They asked if we'd do a booth
9:31
and do a giveaway. So we're going to do a giveaway
9:34
that I I said I'd do a hat, shirt strap bundle.
9:37
So, you know, it's kind of fun. And then obviously we'll be
9:41
selling shirts and hats and we got the new shirts that just
9:45
arrived. Long sleeve with the hood.
9:47
It's just a regular T-shirt material, but long sleeve with a
9:51
light good. I'm super excited to get those
9:54
rolled out. So those will be for sale there.
9:57
And then come back from that and go up to Washington.
10:01
You excited for Washington? I am, yeah, I one, I think it's
10:07
gorgeous up there. I would love to like, you know,
10:10
we kind of did like a little like quarter day where we went
10:13
out to Coeur d'Alene, yeah, exploring.
10:18
I'd love to do like a little half day or something and go see
10:21
some more of it or more of Spokane.
10:25
But I am excited to get up there.
10:28
It's always fun to just like, hang out in the shop, shoot his,
10:32
you know, courses and whatnot, film the videos, YouTube.
10:36
Bantering together is comical. And then an early bedtime for me
10:40
while you 2 hot until three, Yeah.
10:42
Not us, usually, yeah, but no, it'll be fun.
10:46
It'll be colder right than the last time I went up there.
10:50
I haven't looked at the weather, but probably, I mean, it's
10:52
February. Oh my God.
10:55
Oh my God. What if?
10:57
It's snowing it. Could it?
10:59
Definitely could. So I'm doing.
11:02
Can. I mean, we're probably doing at
11:05
least at least a half dozen videos just for my channel and
11:09
then a couple videos for other channels.
11:14
So it's going to be a lot of filming.
11:16
What is it? Chilly?
11:19
Hit me with it. Boy, well, just let me I can't
11:26
get past the the 10th of February because I clicked 10
11:33
day forecast, but high of 36, low of 25, high of 35, low of
11:41
25. Those are both snow days.
11:44
High of 34. Low of 24.
11:48
Better bring your winter clothes.
11:50
Oh my God, is there like a 30 day?
11:57
Nah, usually 10 days like the Max.
11:59
That's accurate I believe. Maybe.
12:01
Two weeks. Yeah.
12:03
So anyways, it's going to be a little bit chilly, but it's kind
12:07
of the only time we had to get up there really.
12:11
I mean, till after summertime, and then it's hunting time.
12:14
So this was kind of it. This is like the only window to
12:17
go and it's good. We got a lot of video ideas
12:21
that's going to be coming out. So I'm right now sitting on 4
12:26
unreleased videos and then after that trip we'll film like 6
12:30
more. So I may start dropping videos
12:33
twice a week here before long, but not quite yet because if I
12:38
do twice a week now, it's only like 2 weeks of content.
12:41
So I want to wait till I got like, I don't know, six in the
12:45
tank and then I'll start doing 2 a week because there's going to
12:50
be a lot of content once we're up there.
12:52
And then, you know, Oklahoma attack in April, which isn't
12:58
that far out. That'll be like, you know, 5
13:02
videos as well. And then BD Challenge making the
13:06
courses Tennessee Tackle be a bunch, Pennsylvania will be.
13:11
So I mean like there will be a ton of.
13:14
Rally literally a week and 1/2 after that I.
13:16
Don't know if we're allowed to say the date yet, but it's it's
13:18
sometime near near. It's.
13:21
Summertime. It's in the summertime, yeah.
13:24
Yeah, so. But a lot of content, you know,
13:27
and then obviously Africa be content.
13:30
So like I think twice a week uploads will happen sooner
13:33
rather than later. This year, last year I went to
13:36
twice a week. I think in maybe like July and
13:40
August was my two months, June or July or August, I did it for
13:44
two months. This year I think I'll do it
13:46
more than two months. I think I got a lot of content
13:49
on the horizon. So yeah, I'm excited because I
13:53
like doing twice a week, but I don't like the stress of like
13:57
not not having stuff in the tank and doing twice a week.
14:00
So I just want to make sure I have a huge buffer and can pull
14:03
it off. And then the nice part is like
14:06
if you have a bunch of stuff and then say you get down to two
14:11
videos, you're like, OK, I only have two left that are finished.
14:14
Then you just walk back to once a week.
14:16
You know, it gives you a couple weeks.
14:17
So like, it'll be a good year for content for sure.
14:23
But yeah, that is comical. In Washington you're always in
14:27
bed by like 8 or 9, so. Nice.
14:30
Me and Josh are staying in Lincoln Park.
14:32
And he has a very comfortable, like, Tempurpedic bed.
14:35
So this mattress you brought? Yeah, Booty.
14:40
What mattress? Well, it's technically Paul's
14:43
that you got from Paul. I like.
14:44
My mattress, it's nice. Yeah.
14:49
But you like a bed that's like a 2 by 4?
14:51
Yeah, it's like so stiff. Yeah, I'm curious to get those
14:56
grandma beds that like are split down the middle so we get our
15:00
own, you know, firmness levels and, you know.
15:03
I want to hear comments actually on what your bed firmness
15:07
preferences. Drop those in the comments
15:09
because. Guarantee more firm than plush.
15:12
I wouldn't say like super plush, I would say I like like a mid.
15:16
A mid. You like like a old fashioned
15:18
box spring bed, like where there's still springs in bed
15:22
where if like you bounced on it, it's like.
15:26
Like I never hear that noise but.
15:28
Now, yeah, unless Alby jumps up on the bed, but yeah, yeah.
15:33
So I prefer a nice firm. I want the bed to feel like my
15:40
tempurpedic pillows. So you're saying like the how
15:43
hard it is actually does make a difference?
15:46
Yeah, OK. Yeah, I wasn't sure.
15:48
Well, it's going to have a nice like, you know, soft, smooth
15:52
layer on top that just kind of like you sink into a little bit
15:56
when you touch it, but then you go nowhere because it's firm
16:00
beyond there. OK.
16:02
All right. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
16:05
Well, Speaking of that, I believe, I believe when the this
16:13
episode is out, I do believe the Mule stabilizer will be on the
16:18
website for purchase. Yes.
16:20
So this drops on Wednesday, today's Monday, we record on
16:24
Mondays, but I believe by Wednesday these will be
16:26
available. So if you're listening and you
16:28
want a Mule stabilizer with Bo Disciples laser on there, yeah,
16:34
our logo, you can get these right now on bodisciples.com, 10
16:40
inch. We're going to have two colors
16:42
on the site. We're going to have black and
16:45
kind of an army green. Those are the two colors we're
16:48
going to run out the gate. So definitely if you want to
16:52
pick one up, lodisciples.com pick them up.
16:54
I'm super excited to be carrying these the websites kind of
16:57
filling out and I'm I like that. So that's that.
17:02
And as far as hunting goes, I mean, it's not really much to
17:05
talk about other than like, I mean, turkeys a few months out.
17:09
Well, we hunt turkeys this year. I will not, but I'm sure you
17:13
will. It was in my Africa thing, but I
17:16
don't know when that is. So we're kind of switching
17:19
gears, really from talking about hunting to life.
17:23
That's more life, yeah. And archery.
17:26
Yeah, well, I mean, 3D season will pick up, Yeah, very shortly
17:30
here. Oh yeah.
17:31
And. Yeah, two weeks.
17:34
And that'll be something we'll have to kind of look at the
17:35
calendar. Oh.
17:36
Shit, I'm filming that. I forgot I'm filming that for
17:39
two days. Yuma.
17:43
Well, yeah, we just talked about Yuma.
17:44
Yeah, I know. But I didn't consider that I was
17:47
filming videos there, so that's even more.
17:50
Videos you are. Yeah, I know.
17:53
Yeah. Wow.
17:54
Yeah, more. Oh my God, you're going to shoot
17:57
and film what? Yeah, I didn't even think about
18:00
that. Yes.
18:02
I have a filmer for it actually. Yeah, yeah.
18:05
Now you got to be able to let him do his, you know, thing,
18:08
though, because I told him I'd. They've got a lot of content to
18:10
get to. Yeah, but they like their DSLR
18:13
stuff, as I do. You're just weird.
18:15
But. No, he said he liked the
18:16
camcorder for outdoors. OK.
18:19
So anyway, I'm going to give them all the footy.
18:22
Yeah, it was Saint Connie. And then, oh, but it is
18:25
application season. Yes.
18:27
So in the past what, four days? You dropped a lot of money.
18:31
Oh my, yeah, a lot. But I've applied for three
18:36
states. Yeah.
18:37
So Arizona Elkin Pronghorn is open right now, closes February.
18:43
Spot blowing right now or you spot.
18:45
I'm just naming all the states that are open right now.
18:48
There's very few states that are.
18:49
Cancelled by the locals? No, it's not.
18:52
I think it's it's a very not crazy thing to say that these
18:58
states are open. These states are open.
19:01
You just said I just applied for a bunch if this video came out
19:05
on Wednesday and you just said we film on Mondays and they're
19:08
like, oh, well, if you just applied, let's go see what
19:10
states are open. They can do the math on their
19:13
own. I is not that hard.
19:15
So anyways. You're not allowed to say it
19:18
though. It's like, it's like Fight Club.
19:22
Suck a popsicle. So anyways, Arizona's elk and
19:28
pronghorn are available right now.
19:34
New Mexico, which is a lottery state.
19:37
Well, and you can apply for deer, elk, pronghorn, oryx,
19:43
ibex, javelina, bighorn sheep. I think you may.
19:52
That might be all of them. Yeah, a lot.
19:54
I'm going to apply for all of them.
19:56
I'm going to do them all, but I'm going to wait till.
19:58
You have a different credit card I.
19:59
Don't know I'm going to do it the day before the deadline.
20:02
That's why because. Just sheep loans, like 3 grand.
20:05
So I'm going to dish out like, I don't know, like 5 or 6 grand.
20:07
So I would prefer to do that. And then?
20:10
Right at the deadline, so the money goes.
20:12
Wyoming is open. Yeah, I just did.
20:14
Wyoming and And that was, but only for what?
20:18
Turkeys. Only for turkeys, yeah.
20:20
So it's a little while for some of the other ones.
20:23
But Wyoming is actually my first time ever applying, so I had to
20:27
make an account and sign up. But I'm excited.
20:31
I mean, I, I learned that, you know, being a mistake I've made
20:36
in my hunting career is not applying more places for my
20:39
entire hunting career. So now I'm just applying.
20:43
I'll probably apply and a dozen states this year, maybe even
20:49
more. But my thought is even if all
20:52
the odds are low, but I apply for say 30 things, the odds I
20:58
get 1, I feel like it's pretty good.
21:02
So that's kind of my strategy this year is just throw like
21:05
everything at the wall and just hope I get something, you know?
21:09
Yeah, I am not doing not only because who knows what the
21:12
future holds for me. Yeah, work wise as it is,
21:16
probably what I've applied for would be hard to to hunt just
21:20
because of the amount of time. You know, I'm a firm believer
21:23
of, you know, take as much time as the season is open.
21:27
If you can. But if you know there's a good
21:31
possibility that that's not you, shut off those thighs well.
21:35
You know, I have a kind of a personal question that I'm, you
21:40
know, a little self-conscious about, you know, but I was
21:45
curious one to 10, like how would you rate my leg
21:49
development, my quad development?
21:52
How would one to one to 10? Well, hold on, we looked.
22:00
Yeah, look, I'll even. I'll even.
22:03
They look about the same. So I mean, there's some
22:06
definition. You just have such an abnormally
22:09
high quad ending. Where your quad ends doesn't
22:15
come down to like this. You know, like the side of your
22:18
knee like most people's. So what would your score be on
22:22
my beautiful missiles here? I think more time could be
22:28
dedicated to them, you know, maybe two days a week.
22:32
What's the 110 rating? They hit me with it, you know?
22:37
Are we just just like looking at the quad itself, or within your
22:42
whole thing from? The knee up.
22:43
Symmetrical. From the knee up, not my calves
22:45
because my calves are nice knee up.
22:48
Well, I give them like good, you know, sevens just looking at the
22:53
quads, it's got great, you know, great legs, very.
22:55
Generous. That's a generous rate.
22:57
Yeah. My legs look.
22:58
However, the fact that your shoulders are about the same
23:01
size as your thighs. So you're saying I don't have
23:05
the best bodybuilding? They call it proportions.
23:08
No, yeah, you don't have good proportions.
23:11
You spend a little too much time on the upper half and not enough
23:15
in the lower half. So you're saying I don't have
23:17
those Tom Platts legs? Yeah, whoever that is.
23:20
Sure. Anyway, so back to all things
23:24
archery and hunting after that commercial break, I'll just be
23:31
happy if I get one. And even if I don't, I mean, I
23:34
still have my my deer tag to go back and try to fill.
23:38
So I have some some hunting I can do in the August or
23:43
December. Yeah, I mean you got options,
23:46
so. I would like I say this, I would
23:50
like a bull tag. Reality is will I most likely
23:54
get one? No.
23:55
Well. I mean it depends how many
23:57
states you put in for but. Yeah.
23:59
Or there is always, you know, things like looking for states
24:04
that are OTC. There's not many of those left.
24:06
Not many. They're going away.
24:08
Which I do kind of prefer draw in a lot of ways, some ways.
24:12
But there's something, something cool about OTC.
24:14
But yeah, anyway, yeah, I can't wait.
24:20
I love application season it. I'm trying to get better at it.
24:26
And I haven't drawn a good tag in like 4 years.
24:30
So I'm hoping that this year is three years, three seasons.
24:33
So I'm hoping this is my year where I get something good, you
24:36
know, and we've made a few changes, you know, that my buddy
24:40
Taylor's helped me with that I really think will help help our
24:43
odds as well. So like, not only am I applying
24:45
more places, but I'm also doing like certain changes that should
24:50
help, you know. So that's good.
24:53
And yeah, archery stuff, you know, so a lot of good stuff
24:58
going on the pod. I think it'll be a great year
25:00
for the pod with all your burping and.
25:04
I'm a mess. Hey, this is one.
25:07
This is big. There's a new president since
25:11
the last time. Yeah.
25:14
Now you know, me is obviously a little emotional.
25:17
I got on TikTok and was crying to the camera because I, you
25:21
know, I'm a big I'm a big Biden Kamala guy.
25:24
So for me, you know, I had to go to a safe space and, you know,
25:33
just wither on my tears, you know, But how did you how did
25:39
you take it? Did you also go to TikTok and
25:41
cry? No, I whipped out my American
25:45
flag that's been banned for four years and, you know, pounded a
25:50
Bud Light and. I don't know.
25:53
Threw my fist in the air. Actually, Bud Light's back now.
25:56
Bed light is back now. I kept drinking it, obviously as
25:59
a biting guy, you know? Not going to lie, I actually
26:02
didn't drink the beer because I don't like beer.
26:03
But you know, anyways, you get the sentiment of how I felt for
26:08
the day. I'm offended that you felt that
26:10
way. Well, tough cookies.
26:15
Anyway, yeah, interesting. Good time.
26:17
Should be a good. Hopefully we'll see what
26:20
happens. I'm excited.
26:21
I'm always excited. I love life.
26:24
I love life, you know? Nice black tail right here.
26:33
I enjoy black tail hunting. I do.
26:38
Yeah, I hope we get to do it again.
26:40
Hopefully and running. I like running, been running,
26:44
been gyming down 10 lbs we're. Down about about that too, but
26:49
not from running. Hey, how's your biking going?
26:54
I have not been since I've been back, but I am, you know,
26:58
movements unsettle the innards right now and I would really
27:06
like that to stop so I can get back on the bike.
27:10
I while we were gone, I had ordered for Christmas some new
27:16
biking shoes have better actual grip for the pedals and some
27:21
gloves, which I need to get from Ramona, I think tomorrow.
27:27
But so I'm excited to put all these things to, to use now
27:32
because there's little things that I'm finding would be more
27:34
helpful as I'm tweaking the bike for my, my liking.
27:41
But as you said, you know, I think I'm getting a little more
27:43
confident and the things I'm willing to try, that doesn't
27:47
mean I'm getting better at them. I'm getting more confident at
27:50
trying them. I would say you were more
27:52
confident, but now you don't know.
27:54
You might be less comfortable after a month off the bike, you
27:57
know. So I.
27:58
Think maybe I don't feel like it.
28:00
I more feel like I might have to, you know, jump off the bike
28:03
and run into the woods if, you know, nature calls.
28:07
So I would like that to stop first.
28:11
Yeah. Another thing I think we should
28:14
maybe talk about yearly goals. I don't think we talked about
28:17
that on the last pod, did we? I.
28:19
Don't think so, Not. That I can recall.
28:22
But one of our goals that I think is a good one for a lot of
28:31
hunters, especially hunters with a certain, you know, that have
28:36
some success on a regular basis, One of those goals is to eat
28:41
through all the game meat. You know, just to number one,
28:46
it's cost effective because you already have it #2 it's
28:52
healthier than shit you buy in the store.
28:54
For sure. It's good.
28:58
And I will say it's January. What is it?
29:03
27th Paul's birthday, my brother's birthday today,
29:07
January 27th. We were gone until the 20th, so
29:10
we've been home a week. Basically you go look at that
29:15
freezer, stand up freezer, it's a lot emptier already.
29:20
So like, that goal is going well.
29:22
I think that goal will be a six month goal, not a goal,
29:26
especially once I can start eating again.
29:28
Really. I almost.
29:29
Think less than that. I mean, obviously like all my
29:31
traveling, but. We do have a lot of pork at the.
29:36
Oh yeah, true. I mean, no, we have tons more at
29:38
the house, but I'm saying like just that freezer I can see me
29:41
in like 3 months. Yeah, and I really like it what
29:46
I'm learning. If someone else has the same
29:48
goal, I'm learning. For me, what makes it possible
29:54
or easier, I should say, is I always make sure to pull out two
30:01
packages at the same time to thaw.
30:03
So like usually I'll do one steak package and one ground
30:07
package and then by the time you eat through one of the two or
30:14
like you're about to get through the second one, pull out two
30:17
more. So like The thing is like the
30:18
problem I've always run into in the past is all, I don't have
30:22
anything thawed. So I'll just like go to the
30:24
store or order something or go to a restaurant and I do not
30:29
want to do that. So even if I have nothing
30:31
thawed, I'll just do the old warm water technique.
30:34
But just pulling out 2 packs at a time.
30:37
I haven't run into this problem. And we've always had meat
30:40
options. So that that I think is a really
30:44
good goal. And if you can pull it off,
30:50
it's, it's almost got to make you like slim down too.
30:56
It almost has to. Yeah, I would for sure say so.
30:58
I think the only thing that wouldn't is either 1 the
31:03
snacking that people may do in between meals or two, is there
31:09
portions that they're eating when they serve a plate?
31:13
So like, you know, because typically your YouTube of ground
31:18
is about a pound and if you cook that all at once and you serve
31:25
yourself one serving, then you go back and do another and all
31:29
your meats gone. You just ate a pound of ground
31:33
venison in one dinner, which is. I mean, a lot of people are
31:41
probably sharing with. For sure.
31:43
At least one person. Yeah, but even if you're eating,
31:48
and again, I'm not a dietitian, but let's say you did just eat
31:52
like you were doing a carnivore type thing, only eating meat,
31:55
which is pretty close to what I've been doing other than like
31:58
had a bit at a party on the weekend or something.
32:01
But I've been doing really good with my diet.
32:04
If you just ate a pound of meat, like, yeah, it's a lot, but I
32:10
still bet the calories and the nutrients you're getting from
32:14
just eating a pound of ground game meat is like, so much
32:20
better than, I don't know, a #4 jack-in-the-box or yes,
32:26
spaghetti. Here, Yeah, absolutely.
32:28
It's just I think. I had to put my legs away.
32:33
I got on. If you, I would say if like the
32:37
purpose is slimming or cutting weight or whatnot, portion
32:41
control is still important. But if you're strictly
32:43
carnivore, that's where I don't know enough because like there
32:47
are people who legit have like 3 steaks a day and you know, steak
32:52
and eggs in the morning and then you know, another steak for
32:54
lunch and and that's all they're doing and they're not exercising
32:59
and they're dropping weight. I would guess most people on a
33:04
diet like that probably are exercising Most, but not all.
33:09
But not to the point where I would think the amount you'd
33:13
have to be doing to offset the, you know, 3 lbs of red meat
33:18
you're intaking every day. I mean, if you just think of the
33:21
macros, right, like say you ate 3 rib eyes a day, that's a ton
33:28
of protein, a lot of fat and no carbs basically.
33:34
Versus if you had let's say, like, let's just go a
33:39
traditional breakfast would probably be two pieces of
33:43
sausage, 2 pieces of bacon, 2 pieces of toast and some eggs or
33:51
oatmeal. That that right there is number
33:56
one, all the foods most likely processed, you know, because you
34:00
bought it from the store or or at least more processed and then
34:04
you're mixing in a lot of carbs and grains that aren't so good
34:08
generally versus 3 rib eyes is like it's very I almost I almost
34:15
wonder if it would be fun to have someone who's like a diet
34:17
expert on. I.
34:19
Almost wonder if part of it is just that it like kind of
34:22
confuses your body less, you know what I mean?
34:24
Like so you're not reacting differently to oh, today I'm
34:28
having rice next time I have an oatmeal and like all this
34:31
different stuff. I wonder if that like can
34:34
promote inflation or whatever, I don't know.
34:39
Yeah, I don't know. I don't.
34:41
I don't know enough about it. Yeah, me neither.
34:43
So we maybe I'll try to find a diet person that.
34:46
'D be fun. Fun fact that I told you though,
34:47
remember it's a good one I think for the audiences.
34:50
If you are trying to eat healthy but like say you just can't
34:53
stick like myself. I really can't stick to the
34:56
carnivore alone. I do love sweets.
34:59
I got to at least have my one coffee in the morning.
35:03
But I just I like variety and carnivore makes it a little
35:07
difficult to do variety. But we have gotten things like
35:10
hold on, sorry, things like cauliflower rice and sweet
35:22
potato rice, spaghetti squash. So that helps.
35:27
But where do you get those things?
35:29
If you come into the store, if your entrance or your exit
35:32
doors, you stay on those outside walls.
35:35
Whether you go this way or you go this way around the store,
35:40
just never go in the aisles other than if you need things
35:44
like cleaning supplies and whatnot.
35:46
But. That blew my mind.
35:47
Isn't it crazy? So you start over here.
35:50
Let's say this is your. It's funny that booze is on the
35:53
outside aisle. Isn't that funny?
35:54
But it's not technically like on and outside aisle.
35:57
It's usually like within a cubby, in an aisle, on the
36:00
outside, or it's. Usually in a in a corner on the
36:04
outside though. I would say, but I kind of
36:07
tucked. Kind of.
36:09
I mean, think of the Grocery Outlet, it's right there in the
36:12
corner. Think of Vons, same thing, it's
36:14
just in the corner. Well, past the booze section,
36:18
you know, get into the store, you know, and boom, you're in
36:22
the vegetable section. So you're in the fresh produce
36:25
section. You make your way backwards and
36:30
depending on what store you're in, let's just say we're in our
36:32
bonds. You're going to get to the like
36:35
deli, Bacon's meat section, fresh meats.
36:40
We're going to go down the back wall.
36:42
Now we're hitting the seafood section.
36:45
You can buy your fresh seafood. Sometimes there's some frozen
36:47
stuff there. Just keep on keeping on.
36:50
Now we're going to hit our dairy on that back wall.
36:53
We got our eggs, our milk, our cheese.
36:58
Good to go. You turn the corner and you're
37:01
in your bakery. This is where you have to be
37:03
careful because there's lots of fresh breads.
37:07
If you're not doing the straight, no, you know, carbs
37:09
thing, lots of good fresh breads.
37:12
But there's also typically in the bakery section, your lovely
37:15
doughnuts, cookies, muffins and you know, all that sort of
37:20
stuff. But do you notice, like, there's
37:22
a bakery section with fresh breads and then there's an aisle
37:28
that contains breads that last for like, forever?
37:32
Oh, that's a good point. Yeah.
37:33
You know. Yeah, true.
37:35
So if you just stay on the outside of the store, you can
37:38
get everything you need to eat healthy and hit all of your
37:42
little, you know, triangle that they suckered everyone into
37:47
believing the. Good old general.
37:48
Mills, the General Mills Triangle, you can get all that
37:52
stuff if you stay on the outside.
37:54
Just never go on the insides. Let's talk about this since
37:58
we're talking about wild game meat and eating and diet and
38:05
things of that nature. Give me maybe your top couple
38:10
dishes that you like with Wow. Oh my God, I've.
38:16
Never burped so much. You're going to get my.
38:20
That's not. Ladylike, I don't give a flying
38:23
flip. I don't think they understand
38:25
how much I hurt right now. They're lucky I'm here filming
38:29
this because I would really just love to be cuddled in bed.
38:33
My top game meals. Just give me like a couple meals
38:36
that you get excited for using game meat, and then I'll give
38:41
like one or one or two of mine. Well, I think there's some that
38:44
we don't make enough like I've only made once it.
38:48
Can't be something we've never made, but anything that we have
38:51
made. Well, no, I made it.
38:52
I like my pot pies. You can go with rabbit.
38:55
You can do a Turkey meat. Probably the worst, but yeah.
38:57
Well. I.
38:59
Mean not necessarily. It's a very thin which is also
39:03
in the outside section of the store.
39:06
It's a very thin pie crust, which you can also make fresh if
39:10
you want to with flour. But I don't.
39:14
I don't line the inside of my little souffle dishes with flour
39:21
pie crust as well. It was the list.
39:22
It's only the top layer. That's lion tail.
39:25
I did it with cotton tail. Yep, and there's a rest that's
39:27
on the inside is just. Yeah, and how you did it,
39:30
there's a video on too, so if someone wanted to try it, they
39:33
could go and check it out. OK, so the pot pie which I.
39:35
Pot pie is up there on the list. Give me one more.
39:38
The new ones we've been entertaining are spaghetti
39:43
squash, like ground alternate for spaghetti.
39:48
I do love spaghetti, so I'm doing like an Italian spicy
39:52
dish. Spice spicy dish, spicy dish
39:58
with the spaghetti squash is delicious.
40:03
Let me see if I can come up with a third.
40:05
I'll hit a couple while you're thinking.
40:07
One of my all time favorites and it's not the worst for health
40:12
but I mean not bad at all it's just I haven't been eating it
40:15
lately is I love just white rice with ground.
40:22
Some sort of ground game meat, and then I like to chop up like
40:27
a jalapeno and a habanero and an onion and throw a bunch of
40:31
Peppers in there too. Yeah, that's like one of my old
40:34
time favorites. You sounds like a Japanese meal.
40:37
Yeah, like a stir fry. Like a stir fry.
40:39
I mean, rice is not a killer, you know, like rice is not that
40:44
bad, but. You can always substitute it for
40:46
cauliflower. Which, yeah, maybe I will
40:48
tonight because I love that, you know, just something with some
40:50
good heat, good meat. It's super easy to make.
40:54
Here's your water chug. It's out there, it's empty.
40:57
And then another one. This one I'm definitely not
41:00
eating anytime soon but plan maybe on a weekend or something.
41:05
Your spicy pasta. Pasta.
41:07
I mean, come on now, Paul. And that's one, believe it or
41:09
not, you got to search through the archives.
41:12
But I did do a video showing how to make.
41:14
That, but you could again do that.
41:16
Yeah, maybe I'll do some. Newer.
41:18
If you've got some tips on draining spaghetti squash, I did
41:23
good with yours. It definitely helps to to flop
41:26
it in the strainer because mine was real watery and I did not
41:30
put it in the strainer, but I feel like there's got to be an
41:33
additional step to get a little more water out of that spaghetti
41:36
squash post cooking it. Oh, and then my last one, super
41:41
simple, but for me, I love like steak and eggs.
41:45
So just like a deer or elk steak.
41:47
And then I like the egg with the runny yolk.
41:51
Oh, oh, you are emanating lots of.
41:58
Yeah, see, that's the thing, You like the simple meals, which I
42:02
wish I loved more. I like.
42:04
Them just because they're, they're so quick.
42:06
Well, not quick necessarily. It's just, I think part of
42:09
having a good diet is like stuff that you can have all of the
42:12
time and kind of not venture too far.
42:16
And I think all those for me are easy, but really good.
42:20
And, you know, yeah, I guess, I guess, I guess, yeah, somewhat
42:24
easy, but it just makes it easier to be consistent, I
42:27
think. Yeah, yeah, the other one left
42:29
off the list. We haven't made a video on this
42:32
one, and lots of people do know what it is.
42:33
I'm surprised because I had never heard of it until Brittany
42:36
had had it made in Florida. But is the Mississippi pot roast
42:41
and that is an easy carnivore meal with a couple of vegetables
42:46
added, IE Or I add banana Peppers and the peppercinis.
42:52
It's good too. Easy to make?
42:53
Yeah, we'll do one soon with my Coos Deer roast.
42:57
Yep, yeah, I like those. Like a little more fancy meals.
43:01
Oh, you know what too? Another.
43:03
One in them. Another one I really like is oh,
43:08
shoot, I just had it. I just had oh, tacos.
43:12
I love doing tacos and sure you got to have a tortilla but they
43:16
make these protein tortillas that are very low carb and have
43:20
like not a ton of protein but like 8 grams of protein.
43:23
Like the macros are totally fine and to me they're just as good
43:27
as a regular tortilla. So you just do that or the plant
43:30
based one. They have some good options for
43:34
healthier tortillas. And yeah, there you go.
43:37
You bang up some ground meat, do some Taco seasoning.
43:40
If the meats not seasoned put in Peppers, lettuce, you know.
43:44
Whatever. A lot of options.
43:45
Maybe we need to put a cookbook together and.
43:47
Be fun and yeah, yeah, something like that.
43:50
But anyway. Time for that.
43:52
That's a big goal of ours is to get through all our meat.
43:56
And I, I'm confident we're going to do it and we're making great
44:00
progress. And you're not even eating.
44:01
Yet, yeah, when I can actually eat food, I can, you know, maybe
44:05
put a dent in some things. Yeah.
44:07
So anyways, yeah, it's going to be an exciting year and shoot,
44:15
we've got a lot of videos in the pipe.
44:17
I mean, right now we got, you know, opening day Javelina that
44:23
Matt got filming is kind of funny in it.
44:26
It's because Teddy didn't do the best job filming.
44:29
So it's. Kind of funny.
44:30
It's it's comical, it's funny video.
44:32
Then we got you and me shooting indoor fun little kind of just
44:36
like us shooting me doing a 300, you doing A5 spots.
44:40
Pretty funny good shooting. And then Ashley attempting to
44:44
shoot left-handed finally got that video finished.
44:48
So that's. I don't even remember we did the
44:51
other one like four months ago or something, maybe more because
44:54
it was hot. It's probably summer.
44:56
And then our Javelina triple, I haven't even edited that yet.
45:00
So that's the one I have to edit still.
45:03
And then there's a bunch of bonus footage.
45:04
Maybe I'll put together some artsy piece that's like kind of
45:08
all of it combined and edited more.
45:11
Maybe I'll do something like that.
45:13
Yeah. And then Yuma 2 videos that
45:16
probably. And then with Josh, shit loads.
45:19
I mean, it's like, I think we're going to have a Goodyear for
45:22
content and now we're doing photos or you know, you're kind
45:26
of taking the reins on attempting to do photos.
45:29
We did have an accidental deletion of some.
45:33
What do you think of that one? Don't know.
45:38
It happens, but it's good. Like it reminds me of when you
45:43
do like a shot and you don't move your site back and launch
45:46
the arrow over you. It's good to do like one time
45:49
because then you're like, OK, we need to like put in a different
45:52
system so that doesn't happen. And now it won't because it's
45:55
like we just moved the photos XYZ.
45:57
So, but you wouldn't, we wouldn't have known had some
46:01
photos not disappeared, you know, so it's like we're getting
46:05
better photos is new to us. Are you looking at that, Kuzma?
46:10
Well, I just said for some reason it just like I looked up
46:15
and I was like, man, elk have really big skulls.
46:19
Oh yeah, for. Sure.
46:20
That passed my went through my head for a second there.
46:23
Just, you know, I think it's because the Coos are this black
46:27
tails sitting on the table here, which is about the size of that
46:31
elk's nose. Well, if I mean, if you look at
46:33
the frame like this, black tails, I mean probably similar
46:37
to that deer. That one's a little bigger
46:39
obviously just because more points.
46:41
But that's my first cooze right there.
46:45
I don't, I think I shot that in 2022, maybe I think it was 2022.
46:51
But yeah, so that's a nice buck right there.
46:54
He just misses Pope and Young, but he's beautiful, so
46:57
definitely got him. Did the shoulder mount, which
47:00
you know, me, I don't really do too many shoulder mounts, but
47:03
that one first species, he's nice.
47:07
First half a species he's nice. But now I've got 2 that are
47:09
bigger. I didn't mount either of them,
47:10
but Tim did have a good point. I do like mounts that kind of
47:16
work together in a corner or something.
47:18
So this one, maybe I'll get them a companion Coos in the future,
47:23
but it's got to be. Maybe they could kiss noses.
47:26
It's. Got to be 100 inch though.
47:28
It's got to be at least 100 inch, I think.
47:30
Yeah, so, but are you excited for this year?
47:34
You think it's going to be a big year for the program?
47:36
Yeah. I think it'll be a busy year.
47:38
I'm hoping I can keep up with, you know, the potential of
47:43
likelihood of working, but there's still hopefulness that,
47:47
you know, sometime within the year I can find a remote.
47:54
A remote job A. Remote job.
47:57
Yeah I mean as usual, if anyone watching or listening has any
48:01
job suggestions like shoot us a DM on Instagram or if you know
48:06
of a remote job or potentially you're even hiring for a remote
48:09
job, you know message reach out and that would be awesome.
48:16
So definitely appreciate everyone listening again, like I
48:21
said, big shit happening this week.
48:23
Definitely bow disciples challenge three.
48:26
That's the big thing. Tickets are for sale this
48:30
Saturday after this comes out so February 1st are going to be for
48:34
sale. Super, super excited think it's
48:37
going to be a big year It's going to be a lot of fun.
48:39
We already got a couple core sponsors, a handful of vendors
48:43
already locked in one food vendor.
48:46
So it's we're kind of, I would honestly say I'm ahead of I, I
48:49
feel like we're a little bit ahead of schedule as far as
48:52
being ready. Matt, just text me yesterday
48:54
about wanting to go up and start getting ready.
48:57
So we're going to be ready. If there's one thing I can
49:00
guarantee it's that our crews are not going to be under
49:02
prepared. Like it'll be good.
49:04
So appreciate it. And yeah, the support's great.
49:10
I'm very grateful. Are you grateful?
49:13
Very grateful, very appreciative.
49:15
Appreciative, appreciative. Well, thank you guys for
49:18
