SPEAKER_04: The open up at 6 a.m.
12:22
SPEAKER_04: It's hard to stay open until 8 p.m.

12:40
SPEAKER_07: I can try to find people, yeah.
12:42
SPEAKER_07: Yeah, we can try.
12:43
SPEAKER_07: Hey, that's awesome that you do that because the kids like to do this, don't they?

12:57
SPEAKER_03: Well, here's the thing.
12:58
SPEAKER_07: I always would bring my Dr.
12:59
SPEAKER_07: Pepper in there.
13:00
SPEAKER_03: That's why you guys are the official drink sponsor of the podcast, right?
13:03
SPEAKER_07: Yeah, I mean, because it's sips.
13:04
SPEAKER_07: I mean, that's all right, Mr.

13:16
SPEAKER_03: The floor concrete is being poured today.
13:17
SPEAKER_06: Yes.
13:18

13:26
SPEAKER_04: Walls will start growing up the 28th.
13:28
SPEAKER_04: That that's pretty much the update.
13:30
SPEAKER_04: Um we are gonna officially say the goal is to open the first week of December.
13:34
SPEAKER_07: It's official.
13:35
SPEAKER_07: Official drink sponsors.
13:37
SPEAKER_04: Wow.
13:38
SPEAKER_04: Now, Chris, you know as good as I do that weather that's hopefully gonna happen.
13:42
SPEAKER_03: We may have snow at the end of October.
13:46
SPEAKER_04: But I will also tell you so the goal is to have everything weathered in so the outside will look done.
13:53
SPEAKER_04: Um exception of signs and stuff, because the idea is get outside completely done.
13:57
SPEAKER_04: Weathered in.
13:58
SPEAKER_04: That's how they're structuring the project.
14:00
SPEAKER_04: Yep.
14:00
SPEAKER_04: So and then they'll have a good month, hopefully, to uh they'll be doing the framing, but then there's gonna be a lot of are you doing concrete or gravel?
14:08
SPEAKER_04: Outside, yeah.
14:09
SPEAKER_04: It'll be we haven't decided yet.
14:10
SPEAKER_04: It could be asphalt, it it won't be gravel, it'll be asphalt or concrete.
14:14
SPEAKER_03: Gotta do how far the budget stretches.
14:16
SPEAKER_03: Yep, how far the budget stretches.
14:18
SPEAKER_03: I understand.
14:18
SPEAKER_04: Yep, and um, because concrete is more expensive than the asphalt.
14:21
SPEAKER_04: As well, it's permanent.
14:22
SPEAKER_04: But it's yeah, it'll be permanent.
14:23
SPEAKER_07: Oh, I didn't realize.
14:24
SPEAKER_07: I never knew how that was with asphalt and concrete.
14:27
SPEAKER_03: Yeah, asphalt, just like at the plaza that they're doing now, they're redoing that asphalt.
14:31
SPEAKER_03: It's gotta be reground and repaved.
14:34
SPEAKER_07: Okay, that makes sense.
14:35
SPEAKER_03: Yeah, it will groove depending on what's going on in new asphalt.
14:38
SPEAKER_03: You gotta have a nice solid base of rock under there so it doesn't dip and wave on you as garbage trucks come in or your delivery trucks and stuff.
14:46
SPEAKER_03: And so yeah.
14:47
SPEAKER_07: And both look very nice, but I mean I like the look of both.
14:50
SPEAKER_04: Yeah, just the carnival location.
14:52
SPEAKER_04: It's gonna look it'll I I mean that's what I've kind of been telling people.
14:55
SPEAKER_04: It's gonna be the nicest building in town for a long time, I would think.
14:59
SPEAKER_04: Right.
14:59
SPEAKER_04: Um, right, it's gonna be so precious, you guys.
15:03
SPEAKER_07: I can't wait to see that.
15:04
SPEAKER_03: Hey, it's awesome to see the business thriving, but what we really brought you know you in today is to talk about the community, right?
15:11
SPEAKER_03: You guys do so much behind the scenes for the Midwest.
15:14
SPEAKER_03: Let's start the past week.
15:17
SPEAKER_03: Talk to us about the 9-11 dedications and memorials you set up at the shops.
15:21
SPEAKER_04: Yeah, so as we said last on the last episode, we were talking about a way that we there was people asking us saying, We you have American flags at other locations, what about Verdon?
15:32
SPEAKER_05: Right.
15:32
SPEAKER_04: So talk to Cody Smith, which owns the zone Verdon, and then Ryan Lido, which is a teacher at Northwestern now.
15:38
SPEAKER_04: He's been a teacher at multiple schools in the local area.
15:40
SPEAKER_04: They own part of the Verdon location.
15:42
SPEAKER_04: So asked them if they wanted to put up, um, do something at the Verdon location, and they, you know, immediately said, Yeah, let's go.
15:49
SPEAKER_04: And then we talked about doing it before 9-11, making that a priority.
15:53
SPEAKER_04: Right.
15:53
SPEAKER_04: Um, and they got it done, right, which was great.
15:55
SPEAKER_04: And uh we made a post about it, and it it was great.
15:58
SPEAKER_04: And yeah, an interesting thing, which you know, Verdon Girard area.
16:02
SPEAKER_04: Um, I don't see many flags along the main street, guys.
16:05
SPEAKER_04: That's something that after the fact, after it was up, Ryan had mentioned to me, he's like, Ryan, I don't think that there's any flags along Route Four at all.
16:13
SPEAKER_04: Through Vorders, and look, just look, guys.
16:16
SPEAKER_04: I mean, so I guess it takes hopefully a step, and then maybe we might see another flag and another flag because you know, an American flag, I mean, there's there's no political statements there being made.
16:26
SPEAKER_04: It's just let's be proud of our country and put it up.
16:28
SPEAKER_03: Yeah, 250 years of our country.
16:29
SPEAKER_04: Absolutely.
16:30
SPEAKER_04: Yeah, so and the the investment, the time investment, you know, I'd even be happy to share how to do it.
16:36
SPEAKER_04: I mean, in a simple YouTube video, you just dig a hole, you get some concrete, you pour the the pour the post and you put it up.
16:41
SPEAKER_07: You can get all that at Ace.
16:42
SPEAKER_04: Yeah, it's super simple.
16:44
SPEAKER_04: And I think that's where they got it.
16:45
SPEAKER_04: I think they ordered the poll, but they got all the all the material from the local hardware store.
16:49
SPEAKER_04: So yeah, point being, it was great.
16:51
SPEAKER_04: It was great to see.
16:52
SPEAKER_04: It's a great uh thing to win.
16:53
SPEAKER_04: Like that post, people love it, man.
16:55
SPEAKER_04: I mean, and being proud of the country, I'd say is an important thing, yeah.
16:58
SPEAKER_07: And I'm gonna tell you something.
17:00
SPEAKER_07: When I was in eighth grade, obviously, when 9-11 happened.
17:03
SPEAKER_07: So we lived it, you know, but a lot of these younger kids, they weren't alive, okay?
17:07
SPEAKER_07: I mean, was were you?
17:09
SPEAKER_07: I was one.
17:09
SPEAKER_07: I was three.
17:11
SPEAKER_04: I don't remember.
17:11
SPEAKER_07: But so Lydia wasn't though.
17:13
SPEAKER_07: Remember, we realized that last time.
17:15
SPEAKER_07: Okay, so but so that's why I'm glad that you are bringing awareness to it to still remember, you know, the whole never forget, all the things.
17:23
SPEAKER_07: So I I think it's an important part of our history that you young, trendy, cool people are making America cool again.
17:31
SPEAKER_03: Ryan, did you ever think you'd be trendy?
17:33
SPEAKER_07: No, yeah, I don't know.
17:35
SPEAKER_07: We met Lindy, obviously.
17:36
SPEAKER_04: Lindy did, but you know, something I'll mention too is that an individual had come in and they were asking us, like, who's the patriotic one?
17:43
SPEAKER_04: And the answer to that question was it's all of us.
17:46
SPEAKER_04: And in the post, a line that we put was, you know, being patriotic is not something you do, it's who you are as a person.
17:53
SPEAKER_04: And again, our freedom and patriotism and everything like that is very fragile.
17:57
SPEAKER_04: I always say our communities are fragile, our country's fragile.
18:00
SPEAKER_04: And it's important that if we want to keep our country strong and our community strong, you know, we have to not just say it or do it for one day.
18:09
SPEAKER_04: It just has to be something about who we are as people.
18:11
SPEAKER_07: If I could give you a standing innovation right now, I would.
18:14
SPEAKER_07: He's such a good speaker.
18:15
SPEAKER_03: Well, list off a couple other organizations or school programs or fundraisers that you guys have helped out here recently.
18:22
SPEAKER_04: Man, they've been hitting us up a lot.
18:24

18:26
SPEAKER_04: Hey, I'll give a couple that we were just talking about uh Cade Vineyard.

SPEAKER_04: He's gonna be detailing my car suit, too.
18:31
SPEAKER_04: I'm pretty excited about that.
18:33
SPEAKER_04: But uh I made a joke we were talking about that earlier.

19:12
SPEAKER_04: But I I can uh I can represent.
19:13
SPEAKER_04: That's right.
19:14
SPEAKER_04: There's one more thing I just did.
19:15
SPEAKER_04: That that's for two actual events, and then uh I can't remember.
19:18
SPEAKER_04: There's one more thing that I did.
19:19
SPEAKER_07: I know you just told us before we started, and now I can't remember.
19:23

19:23

20:58
SPEAKER_07: That's right.
20:59
SPEAKER_07: But I'm sorry, Ryan, I wasn't meaning for people to hit you up for money.
21:03
SPEAKER_07: I'm talking about if you would like to be featured on our podcast if your event and that's and go listen.
21:08
SPEAKER_03: That's exactly what this podcast is all about.

SPEAKER_03: And you guys actually want to take this step further moving forward.
21:15
SPEAKER_03: And so talk to us about what's coming up, who are you partnering with next, and what's the new initiative you want to launch right here on this podcast.
21:24
SPEAKER_06: Yeah, so we've, you know, highlighted a bunch of things going on for SIPS so far.

22:00
SPEAKER_04: community talking about volunteers, talking about kids that were there that were just participating at the event and how it's exciting.
22:05
SPEAKER_04: Additionally, there was one volunteer that was interviewed and he's like, I've been doing this for 36 years.
22:10
SPEAKER_04: We love him.
22:11
SPEAKER_04: Ron, we love you, buddy.
22:12
SPEAKER_04: Talking all the all in and also some contestants.
22:15
SPEAKER_04: I believe you talked to the one that won last year and then the one that won this year.
22:19
SPEAKER_04: And how I believe they raised$39,000.
22:22
SPEAKER_04: I think that was what they said or something.
22:24
SPEAKER_07: Wow.
22:24
SPEAKER_07: I didn't hear.
22:25
SPEAKER_07: I'm glad you shared.
22:26
SPEAKER_07: That's all right.
22:27
SPEAKER_04: I thought it was something like that.
22:28
SPEAKER_04: I don't I don't know but it if that's wrong, I apologize.
22:31
SPEAKER_04: But it was a lot of money, right?
22:32
SPEAKER_04: That's a lot of money just so everybody knows.
22:33
SPEAKER_04: Yes.
22:34
SPEAKER_04: Especially just for for one carnival that happens one time a year.
22:37
SPEAKER_04: So the point being I'm going to drop another name that we talked about, right?
22:42
SPEAKER_04: Like the Squirrel.
22:43
SPEAKER_04: It would be amazing to highlight what they do for the community in Project Third Day.
22:47
SPEAKER_04: You know, when they get closer to time.
22:48
SPEAKER_04: And if you guys would be interested to come on but people like that that are doing good things around our area, around the state.
22:54
SPEAKER_04: Yeah or even the one else on that the Midwest, right?
22:59
SPEAKER_04: There's other people we've talked about too.
23:00
SPEAKER_04: We'd love to come and highlight you with us, without us hey, that's up to you.
23:04
SPEAKER_04: But we're we want to open our segment up to others as well.
23:08
SPEAKER_04: Right.
23:08
SPEAKER_04: We're trying to do as much as we can but we're only as strong as what we can handle.
23:13
SPEAKER_04: Right.
23:13
SPEAKER_04: So this is a stage where you can amplify what you're doing to help your organization because everybody that's that's giving back to the community is very passionate about doing that.
23:22
SPEAKER_04: Right.
23:23
SPEAKER_04: We see that and this is an opportunity for you to come on talk about your organization and say this is what I'm doing.
23:28
SPEAKER_04: This is what I'm trying to do and this is how you can help.
23:31
SPEAKER_03: I mean I am very and you guys are so community forward thinking.
23:36
SPEAKER_03: Yes.
23:36
SPEAKER_03: Right?
23:37
SPEAKER_03: And we've talked about it was just you and I, Ryan on there The Guys Club.
23:40
SPEAKER_03: That was a great podcast.
23:41
SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
23:41
SPEAKER_03: Which yeah we had a good time I love that great podcast but I love I love you to death for saying that but but you know it it's not about the business it's about what the business does and impacts in the community and that you guys are truly the 10x partners sponsoring this community segment.
23:57
SPEAKER_07: Right.
23:58
SPEAKER_03: So that so that you guys can highlight what's going on.
24:01
SPEAKER_04: Yeah right you said a really good line Chris you said the community is not something you market to it's something you participate in.
24:08
SPEAKER_04: Right.
24:09
SPEAKER_04: And for the people that are participating in that community right now great job keep it up and come on our podcast.
24:15
SPEAKER_04: But again this is a call to action to people that aren't as much this is your opportunity to just go do something right sponsor the McCoupen County CEO program right?
24:23
SPEAKER_04: I think that'd be a great one.
24:24
SPEAKER_04: It's just you know you there's so many opportunities out there and again this this hopefully this segment is going to turn into us hopefully bringing awareness to hey there's other people doing good things too not just watching us do it right this is an opportunity for you to participate in it as well.
24:39
SPEAKER_07: And I'm glad you said this because a lot of nonprofit organizations I mean people are who are having fundraisers they obviously are trying to make money so they don't have money.
24:49
SPEAKER_07: So we all know that marketing and advertising you have to have it.
24:53
SPEAKER_03: Just so they can get their word out.
24:55
SPEAKER_07: Yes you're doing it already for these people that probably wouldn't have the money to be able to to do this.
25:01
SPEAKER_07: So I just it makes my heart so happy I want to tell you guys that because it being in marketing for so long and and advertising like it is heartbreaking when people can't afford to get some the word out of something that's so meaningful to them.
25:15
SPEAKER_07: You know what I mean?
25:16
SPEAKER_07: So thank you guys.
25:17
SPEAKER_07: And just one more thing we got to make sure this ain't just Carlinville guys this is the Midwest.
25:23
SPEAKER_07: You you got a fundraiser you got an event contact me Chris Ryan Lindy Clips all of us big dog right and this is a brilliant idea.
25:34
SPEAKER_03: Or trying to raise awareness for a good cause in the Midwest right in the Midwest or wherever because we have Zoom capabilities we can remote you in.
25:44
