get a D on the end of there. I do. Errand. But do you say errand? Yeah. I had to run a few errands. I just say errands like errand. I don't put the D on there. Do you guys? I'll give you the D. Yeah, I do. I definitely give the D to the errand. Oh my god. We fucking just right there. Thank you. I sent you over that the whole time. This is exactly what I was hoping for. If you listen closely, you can hear his wife Erin blushing at home right now. She told me I don't talk about her enough on here. Nice. Well, there you go. Careful what you asked for. Now she's at home going kablooey.

Oh, man. I say we start off with this delicious drink. What do you think? I mean, you made it, and it looks delicious. I'm not going to brag. I am going to brag. It was... I'm pretty impressed with it here. So today's drink is called mermaid water. Ooh. no summertime i'm into that stuff here i want to say before you say it because i'm looking at your phone and i see how it looks and you fucking you suck with the garnishes this is two now i want a fucking cherry god damn it this one we could have probably done a cherry it's recommending a lemon but that would yeah it looks good on the cup here um we're also on solo cups so you know it's not quite that but we're fancy anyways it is uh spiced rum coconut rum blue carousel lime juice and pineapple juice let's give it a whirl it looks i mean it's a little green little green mermaid it looks yeah a little mermaid here so cheers boys cheers fellas yeah if you're at home cheers um two in a row that's fucking good that's good man okay so we talked about this last time and how people like to have a drink and listen to this if you're ready to do that pause it right now and i'll let you know it's two ounces of spice spiced rum one ounce of coconut rum half ounce of blue carousel half an ounce of lime juice and two ounces of pineapple juice and this is delicious so say putting i would recommend it yeah put it in a shaker and then

porto bryce yep it's fucking delicious that's good so welcome to the party with that one i'm excited crack your drinks if you haven't already so how did you find that like out of curiosity what did you did you just put in like fun drink to make um well no we were kind of just i was trying to figure out what to make and and ashley's like hey opens up like our booze cabinet we have some of this stuff rather than go and buy more stuff is there put something in and see if you can you can figure out this she's like then over we have like pineapple juice we have that so i put in a bunch of the stuff that we had and i'm like kick this one out so that's awesome i just thought of something and I guarantee this exists.

So it's not like we can make it, but I'm sure there's an app where you can just put in what boozes you have. Because I remember they made that for like refrigerators. Like you could put in all the ingredients you have and it will just spit out the recipes. I think at this point you can just ask chat GPT and it'll do it. Right. I mean, all I did was ask TikTok and it came back with videos and all kinds of stuff now. Well, I'm sitting here thinking like every week we end up buying something else. so eventually we're going to have like a right a smorgasbord of a full bar yeah full bar and you know our our good friends over at parallel brewing collective yes sir uh they uh with the cody road stuff they've talked about supplying us with some good stuff so i'm sure soon we will have quite the selection down we appreciate them we are we would welcome that and um we will drink it yeah that goes for any of you just drop something off we'll drink it and we'll give you your props that we will yeah how was your week it's good and exciting no the weekend was well nowhere near as good as yours so we'll start off with my weak ass how dare you uh we had baseball again this weekend which was was good um had a good time but then really we were able to get in pool i was gonna say that was one of the highlights i was gonna talk about so we got in the pool after our games on saturday and hung out and then uh we played early on sunday and got beat first game but

like i say you know the benefit is yeah you got your weekend back so i called all you guys and said hey we're gonna be home come out around two or three whatever time you guys get out there i found it hilarious because it worked out just like you said it like it can not that it always does but you know you were like yeah sometimes they just get knocked out right away and we sunday fun day so there it is you text you're like ah they got knocked out i'm like ah poor coop all right we're on our way which ended up being pretty good we had quite the crew over there that was kind of fun yeah um it was but i just still laugh so you know there was a lot of kids and you know my kids were there your kids were there lots of kids and i ended up asking my kids because we we're talking about the podcast and team mike team sean team eric for pissing in the shower. So I kind of looked at my kids and they both gave me a look and I'm like, I fucking knew it. But then we said, I think it was Ashley. She was like, that's it. If you piss in the pool, go to that side of the pool or if you piss in the shower and if you don't know, nobody pees in the pool.

Yeah, no one pees in the pool. But so we split up and boy, it was overwhelming. How many of you people piss in the shower? It was I think the majority was actually me and like one other person, maybe one other. I can't remember. He was pretty sure one of them was lying. Maybe, but shout out Ashley. I'll always have your back. Yes, it was. Team P is definitely seems to be the popular vote. I think that's just the way it is across America. I'm just coming to this. I knew it happened. I don't think about it because I don't do it. Now I'm like, wow. Every time I look at someone, I'm like, I wonder if they piss in the shower.

I think you really have to because the few times I've been around the few times I've been around when you ask it, people's faces are like, of course I fucking do. yeah look you like you why are you asking weirdo like i thought this is something like you know we we just do we just don't talk about you know yeah i mean it's not like a save it up to go in there and do it but it happens i'm trying to think what someone said because they were like yeah i mean you're in there from like how long are you guys shower but i mean we've been through this but yeah at this point i'm really never going to do it now because it's like i'm just going to be one of those people that i'm holding out like it was i never watched star wars growing up i never saw any of them and so it was like why haven't you watched me i'm like i'm just i'm going to be one one of the last people. Just at this point. Yep. I'm just going to fucking die on that hill.

Just put on your resume. Yeah. But anybody out there for the team peers, we got the numbers on our side here for it. So feel good. Sleep better tonight if anybody's giving you shit. If you're a team peer that boy, it's not close. I'm going to just start recruiting people. I don't know what I need to do, but if you don't piss in the shower and you'd like to hang out, email me at we're still cool, right? At gmail.com because I need new friends. yeah so much yours let's get into how great your weekend was i was getting uh it was all right nothing big nothing happened nothing huge nothing happened at all no i had a pretty good fucking weekend i'm gonna be honest with this so yeah we went to uh so we went up uh we had a graduation party to go to the way this all started was impella uh shout out to our buddy wade his old what's up late yeah wade and tiff their oldest son jack graduated uh so congrats jack um so we went up to see him it was good to see him we don't get to see him very often anymore so uh but we kind of i don't like driving i know two hours isn't far because someone's gonna be like you pussy but if i'm gonna do that on a weekend it's like i'd rather just find something to do around there and just stay sure yeah so we also we have some friends that live in uh bondurant so uh ben and Melissa. So I told Ben, I said, Hey, we're just going to come up and crash with you, Freddie. He goes, perfect. Uh, Melissa was out of town. So we hung out that night and then he goes, I have tickets to Shane Gillis on Saturday. And I'm like, no fucking way. Cause I knew he was coming,

but I didn't think we'd be able to make it. So we never got tickets. And then he's like, Oh yeah, we got a suite. And I was like, Oh, that was nice. So yeah. So we get there. We, you know, we woke up had breakfast had some drinks uh it was a long day but we went there i before i get into the fun stuff i'm i've learned what really grinds my gears okay is fucking traffic like i cedar rapids is fine i i never get mad i i i don't have road rage i have all the patience in the world but when you put me in bumper to bumper you're not moving everyone's being dicks i can't take it when was this was this like leaving the car are you like talking about getting because it was at the the wells fargo arena and i've learned i've been there plenty of times but i realized oh we always uber or yeah i've never had you know yeah but we it just worked out we had to drive and god it sucked so it took forever to park and find a place you know because every lot's full and so you park three four blocks away and by the way i learned kara who doesn't have a lot of patients and she knows that but she loves that like the chaotic driving doesn't bother and i'm like what the hell is right so it's great for me but oh good oh my god but getting out of there we part or we get in the car and it took us 30 minutes just to get out of our spot like out of the parking spot then another like 30 minutes to get out of the parkade and i was see we always just end up at the bars and everything afterward or like before and after and after right and and this time we didn't because we were going back to bondurant right so yeah i suppose that's a

different yeah so but anyway no the show was awesome so uh we find out well first of all we get there and there's a local guy and i'm like oh usually they had to grab a local person or whatever but he's like yeah i grew up in pella and i'm like oh that's crazy because we were just there and that's where wade and tiff lived right and he said his age whatever and kara's like i think that guy graduated with my brother so she texted brother she's like oh yeah he's the man he's killing it now i'm like god damn i'd say so so yeah shout out to andrew lopez like he's been on some, like he was on Joe Coy's podcast I saw, which is called The Coy Pond, which I found hilarious.

I didn't know he had, I mean, I figured he had one. I think Joe Coy's hilarious. He's amazing. But I didn't know either that he had a podcast. It was Andrew Lopez, is that what you said? Yeah, Andrew Lopez. He's an Asian dude, but, you know, again, his name's Andrew. So it's like, he made fun of that. Yeah, so everyone's like, no one sees it coming. And yeah, he was really good, though. But anyway, so there was a rumor that Kara found online that big j was going to be opening for shane and i'm like man i'd be kind of shocked if like big j came to iowa just just to open for someone sure sure as shit he comes out so i was like oh my god because i got to knock out like two of my favorite comedians i haven't seen live in one show so he was so like ben didn't really know who he was and i was telling him like dude he's raunchy right yeah also he's just getting us prepped for shane because i rush i go no no no like he's way raunchy than shane's gonna sound uh you know a little tame compared to him so yeah he's out there doing his thing he's doing some crowd work and it's just god he fucking kills me because first of all he's kind of funny he's like six five but he's emo so he's got like you know colored hair and he paints his nails and yeah but i was just reminded of like my favorite joke he was on kill tony once and he's talking about it and he's like yeah my daughter's dating which sucks and you know she's 5 11 so i was like black guy right and he's like which is fine you know because he everyone said you know it's better than the alternate because he's like everyone told him well girls usually look for a guy like their father and he's like I don't want her dating someone like me I like to finger girls assholes where they blow me

he goes that was fine for a pig mother but not for my sweet baby so that's the kind of humor he has so shout out to Big J that's that's badass I mean what a great you don't jump in and surprise her for it I mean you already get Shane which yeah then Big J yeah but he's like everywhere right now like I feel like big jay's kid like he's already been big but i just feel like but he i i kind of see you're saying he never really got his flowers if you like he you know he has a special here and there but he's never been like a talked about name through everyone well maybe they do the bit what's the legion of skanks yeah legion of skanks yeah they do that which is you know like the huge comedy thing and yeah and i know that and that's been going on for years yep um yeah he was one of the big parts of that, but just there still is obviously, but that's awesome, man. I mean, when I, I Kara told me that before you got there, Oh yeah, that you guys went and I'm like, fuck you seriously. You know, I was like, I want to go to see Shane so bad. And you know, just a new baseball. We weren't going to be able to go down there. Yeah. Um, and then she's like, yeah. And then big J I'm like, you know, I'm like, I'm like, you know, I felt like going text everybody, pull up party days over. I'm going like going in the pool by myself nobody gets to come out here now because i miss that stuff but and it was totally random the way it happened we knew we had the grad party but you know days out the reason we never i never thought about getting tickets because there was just so much going on i'm like i don't i can't commit to this with grad parties and so we got really lucky and then you're in a suite

dude and i mean i've never been in one in the arena and so shout out to ben and uh and josh and christina uh for getting us up there but yeah it's fucking awesome so i do gotta ask because i've been in suites a couple times and it can be hit or miss because you can get people that are just in the suite they don't have any interest in the game or what you know whatever is going on and it can be you know and it can not be fun but i saw were you was there a bunch of people like were were you we were lucky in that like everyone that was there knew mostly knew each other yeah so everyone was cool okay and the sound was great so like honestly you would have kind of I had to yell to like, I mean, okay.

You know what I want, I guess if I've only done it for a game now that I think about it, I've never done it for, so maybe, you know, yeah, like don't talk over that. Well, you don't talk. And it's also like, you got to follow the whole story that they're doing as opposed to timeouts and everything else where people get distracted. So the hardest part was people were laughing so goddamn hard. That's like, you're like, okay, like shut up. I can't hear, you know, but, but I don't, dude, it was so good. Like, and, and the reason I, it's so good is because obviously some of the stuff Shane did i've heard before sure but when they're coming to places like here they're trying out new material so i'm gonna be honest not all of it stuck its landing you know i found it hilarious but other people like oh you know because he he says some out of pocket shit if you will um and so the crowd got quiet oh my for example he's a huge northern dame fan yeah and i knew that and he says something under him the whole fucking arena starts booing and he's like hey fuck you guys we hate the same people he's like fuck michigan fuck ohio state why are you booing me and i was like he's got a good point like i don't know we're fucking iowa fans why are you mad at that you know what i mean so um that was pretty funny because he he looked legit taken back like oh how dare you you know what i mean so uh yeah it was really good it was a long show and like even big jay i was like man i hope he doesn't do just you know 10 minutes sure he did probably 20 yeah which for for opening for someone's great yeah so it was good and the sweet thing is great just because yeah you have a great view and everything but also you have a bathroom one minute away right you have drinks a couple minutes away right it's just a lot easier to it's actually easier to take in the event and still yeah drink and whatnot you know like you

said because it's quick to get to or quick to take a piss and yeah the funniest part was so i'm grabbing a drink before it started up at the sweet bar and i have my the bar shirt on local place here in town and this one of the guys who like runs this like you could tell he's like kind have a bigger wig there comes over he's like you like that place and I was like yeah dude I love it he's like my cousin owns it and I was like oh and so I couldn't remember who all were behind it I knew kale was obviously and he's like my cousin kale I was like oh we love kale so I snapped I took a picture I can't remember the guy name I wish I could but we took a picture and snapped it to kale who was at the show I found out later oh really him and tony and uh and josh from from our studio we all there so i didn run into him but i saw later on snapchat and stuff yeah so it's no i really feel left out hey i wasn't there either fuck me right hey i didn't buy him okay i got lucky so i guess what did you do all weekend yeah you couldn't make it out on sunday either so uh yep my mom had her uh retirement party so She officially retired about a week ago.

Hell yeah. Nice. She's still doing her business she owns. Sure. She was doing promotional material, but she retired from driving the bus and doing all that stuff. Nice. So she doesn't have to wake up every morning. From the mandatory work that she had to do. Yeah. Exactly. Shout out, Mom. Right? Yep. Nice. We should have went to that and just did a podcast from there. Could have. Yeah. I smoked some pulled pork, and I did like three bucks for that. Nice. Three? we probably didn't even eat enough for one but did you do them at your house and then just took them there yeah okay i was gonna say i'm like so i'd be a pain in the end i did it overnight and then like um i was a little bit worried about them because they weren't to temp in the morning oh really so i wrapped them and turned up the heat a little bit and got there do you i would say i typically now i i'm so little patience that they hit 165 and i wrap them i'm just like i i know it's better to get it through the stall just to leave it but i i'm getting patient oh my come on i can do it without i like to just because i like the bark yeah yeah in this case i was not worried about right this is more about make a trad meat to eat yeah meat to eat meat to eat yeah like that so yeah good weekend that's awesome it was great i'm jealous of you but i'm glad that i mean i'm assuming it was probably sold out so i think so i'll tell you man by the fucking traffic and the way it looked it sold out but i don't know i mean because it's kind of cool that someone like him still comes around yeah you know i wanted to i tried finding that andrew lopez

guy like online yeah and it's now i'm old i just went to facebook and i saw some posts about him that's how i saw he was on joe coy's podcast and stuff but i couldn't find a page for him but i know i know he has a twitter and or x that's the other thing does anyone actually call it x no okay that's fucking dumb i'm sorry i mean people do but it's still stupid sure it just sounds stupid like find me on x like fucking what on a map like i don't understand like yeah yeah like you could have came up with something else you're a billionaire dude fucking put some brains behind it call it tesla chat or something something some elon fan's gonna be like hey i'm like i'm not saying i hate the guy just fucking do better yeah i mean what else you got going on come on jesus right playing video games didn't we talk about that on one or was that not on air oh i don't yeah i don't know if it was he like says he's like the number one ranked player of like certain games and i'm like of exile how the fuck there's no first of all i don't know how you have the time well but then it came out like the time people were watching him and like people who play the game and they're like yeah he's cheating like he's using this thing and like i'm like i don't know i also don't care but it just seems weird to me i mean they they were like there's absolutely no way yeah but you know when you're used to i don't know having your balls fluffed maybe that's just one other way i don't know so yeah but then yeah sunday went out to your place and that was awesome and kids didn't

want to leave but i'm like it's school night because your kids are done yeah we're done nope they've got what is today where they got two more days two more days yeah that's right it had been a long week i was by the time i was wiped by the time we kind of cleaned up when you get when everyone left i just i'm like i'm ready for bed sean was man in the grill as the grill master it was good it was nice it worked out it did but you had a little problem there at the end we had a rookie mistake what did i do oh yeah you wound up uh over a frying pan so oh yeah what happened i ran out of propane again.

You know, fucking A. We've all done it. I had like three burgers left to do and I'm like, God damn it, are you serious? I'm in there getting a bite and he walks in like, motherfucker, I'm like, why? He grabs a pan, I'm like, no. You want to talk about one of those things where I say like, this is how I know I have adult money? I bought another tank. So I always have one and I rotate him. Oh, he does too. Fucking sit next to it. Empty. the one was empty next to the other one yeah i yeah he said like he was like i've been looking at it and i thought i should probably get that filled and he's like no i just keep saying that i was up there the other day i'm like i need to go get this filled because that thing's got to be running low and it's every time you're grilling for other people like i've had it happen two or three times in my life it's never been when i'm just like grilling for the family it's always when a bunch of people which i guess makes sense i should say i am grateful i got through the the majority of the food you did though because it was a lot like we had a lot of that would have sucked we had the chicken breast and the burgers on there so it was good that i was able to get through the because i said it'd have been like i'd be giving you food to go home and make yourself yeah here take some chicken on your way out make sure you cook it when you get home it's not good yet kids that's the worst part is like if it happens with chicken or something yeah yeah like yeah damn i don't even know how to like save this yeah what am i gonna do now but yeah yeah you had a lot chicken it was fucking delicious so it was well you get that shit from sam's we just cut it in half you know what i mean so then you have like because it's faster too yeah it's easier to cook and yeah it's a lot he did it on the blackstone and like when you have those really thick breasts

you know juicy juicy titties yeah those take forever so well and then the outside gets charred the inside's like barely edible so yeah we were talking about like rookie mistakes on the black stone like when i first got mine i remember just you know i i seasoned it perfect and i was like so excited to do a big breakfast so i cranked it to fucking as high as it could get and i'm like yeah and i throw down you know three dozen eggs and they're just done instantly oh fuck like grabbing spatulas trying to keep it moving you're like you don't realize how hot those fucking things get so yeah yeah so if you're listening at home don't do that it was fun though it worked out so we'll get you out there eric and hopefully do it again looking forward to it said never know on a sunday what's going to happen right depending on how baseball gets It's like I told you, sorry, can't plan it.

Because the minute I'd plan it, then we'd end up just winning the whole day. But maybe, shit, maybe I should plan a party. Someday we had already made plans to go to the other pool. Yeah. Justin cooked me burgers. And, you know, having a trained chef cook you burgers isn't a bad thing. Yeah, I'm pretty jealous of that, honestly. No kidding.

Well, I mean, mine were pretty fucking good, too. Come on. They were really good, yeah. But he did say that because, yeah, the pool opened up this week. We've only gotten to go once so far. and even i mean it was fine it was a little chilly just because it was kind of windy um but you know eric was there like two o'clock that day and it was like 90 degrees we get there at 4 30 and it's it had dropped 15 degrees i'm like fuck and he's like it was great hours ago eric's all eric's all pruney oh yeah guys i have been there every single day they've been open except for one that was the day i was at the retirement party getting my money's worth damn it My wife texts me because I had to stop by there on the way here to like check chemicals and stuff.

And she's like, are you at the pool again? How does she just not expect it by now? Aaron, you know, I mean, the Memorial Day, it's over. You'll see him in a couple months. You know what I mean? If you need him at night, though, he'll be in the hot tub. It's so much worse now, like because Audrey's working there. Like, yeah, that's otherwise I wouldn't be there every day. Sure. Yeah. Is she working there like a lot? like because how many how many lifeguards do they have this four and then subs okay so because i feel like they had less than that last year so yeah thanks audrey we appreciate it because the more lifeguards means they don't have to close for any dumb reasons but you know like not having lifeguards so yeah yeah so so did we get any emails we did okay so or do you want to go to no no no that's perfect but i it one of these is going to lead into something so if you're listening and you commented on any of our Spotify episodes, I'm sorry.

I'm an idiot. I didn't realize that you can comment on those. I've never commented on them. So like a couple, well, shit. Episode one, Cousin Pete wrote, don't knock the minivan when we had talked about that. So I'm like, I'm just seeing these. We might have to bring back the minivan topics. Because I've gone in and liked every one of them. I've seen them, but I should have brought it up to you. So if you're wondering why it's not getting talked about, it's because Erik doesn't tell us things. Feel free to leave some nasty comments in the comment section. Thanks a lot, Alan.

otherwise man needs to retire and suck an egg and that's a friend of mine we worked together way back in the day and the reason I bring that up which by the way I've never seen The Last Samurai I don't even either I've seen it it's pretty good actually other than the fact that it's so weird like that it's Tom Cruise and it's like this it doesn't fit white ass white guy you know being a samurai that's what I was just wondering yeah there's a story behind it it is generally a good movie but that part it was a little bit like yeah could have cast it maybe they could have cast a little bit they just cast a little name on that one like you know a little refill you need to top me let me top you off i made some extra of this punch because it's so good last night ever um so but the reason i i wanted to say those comments is because i did get an email from ally and uh i i'm kind of regretting this one i i love you and all ally but she wrote hey fellas loving the pod it's my favorite for any monotonous chore that i have to do so thanks for making the sucky stuff less sucky all right uh we're here for you yeah so she said so i just started listening and i've been binging so forgive if this has been asked but what's the dumbest job you've had not the worst but like the dumbest because if mike doesn't say west hill mall security guard i call bullshit here's a pic from once upon a time to remind him i would have never guessed first of all i have hair in this photo so you know it's old yeah i didn't even have kids this was four months before logan was born uh june 4th 2007 and it's me sitting at a computer because that's pretty much what you did

let me see it you can just you can tell how dated we're gonna have to post this on i really don't want to it's so funny seeing you with hair it's yeah i mean you can't see my face so i'll just lie and say it's not me but isn't that weird oh that's good and even the the dating of like 2000 you know there's the big brick monitor and you know i don't know it's weird so thank you i think ali for that but yeah she's obviously behind we did we talked about well no we talked about our favorite kind of jobs i don't know if we talked about we talked about yeah or our first jobs or we talked about working at the mall and you talked about that one i did because i get all the paul blart jokes yeah right but we haven't talked about dumbest job nope yeah dumbest job say do either one of you think i need a minute like i mean all of them were kind of dumb but i'm trying to think which one stands out yeah i'm trying to think of dumb like what do i like was it something i didn't enjoy doing i would say that well that or just like a very pointless job that's like at one time i like did like a security job type thing where i just sat like this guard shack thing and like let trucks in and just kicked it out there but it wasn't dumb because they paid me a lot of money to do it like i mean for what i was doing i remember that now like you made really good i made really good money for not doing i mean it was easy and i would know what they were but yeah quote unquote dumb job that would have been i didn't have to do much for it yeah so i have two and they're dumb for different reasons um detasseling i i did like good one two

days of that and i was like this for the rest of my life right uh never went back and then um well and then there's another one that's kind of like that um i uh i did construction which is not a dumb job but uh i was dumb and didn't like put on enough sunscreen and you know i was trying to get my tan and i got so burned i couldn't work you didn't even make it anymore so they were like you can just you can just stay home um but the uh the other one was you know when i um i was kind of between jobs and i had to take a contract job and i was just basically like take the pc out to the desk plug it in go back and get another one and take it out to the desk and plug it in but that's how i got my in at one of the bigger companies yeah but so i mean you you were literally just like the step one.

We can, we, we in, in like in it at that place, at trans America where I was doing it, we called it hardware monkey. So we're like the guy that just, just going to plug it in. Fix my monitor monkey.

Just throw bananas at him. That'd be awesome. Make me a clown. Make me a bike clown. Dance clown. That's good. Is detasseling still a thing? I mean, like, I think so. Yeah. They don't have machine. I mean, I know they use machines, but like you kind of can't for that right yeah i don't know i don't know enough i never did it i remember my sister i think did it like i had some cousins who did it and they would get home just angry and sunburned and dehydrated so they paid really good yeah especially for a high school kid i remember wanting to sign up for my dad like you don't want to do that and i'm like yes i do and he goes trust me you don't want he's like you're not doing it you don't want to do it you're gonna he's smart yeah he was always and i remember i remember when all my friends did it and like the morning they picked them up like you know like you go to this area and they'll pick you up on a bus you know it was like at like um the store by our house and i see them all like with their lunch boxes like ready to go out and i'm like god that like i could be fucking doing that you know i mean making some money and they came back just fucking muddy and nasty and just like and not like majority of them did not go back for the second day you know what i mean and like a few of them made it the week you know what i mean and i remember at that point being like oh thanks thanks dad thanks dad yeah thank you yeah i mean you guys have like walked through a cornfield before yeah yeah like it's miserable it's itchy and just hot and hot and the quality land just yeah so on top of that you're doing a job that you have to touch all this stuff i just can't i remember telling someone that

that's a real thing the reason iowa is so humid is because of the fucking corn like the corn sweats and it adds so much moisture to the air that's that and someone's like that's not true i read it online it's true so the internet doesn't lie it never never no lies because isn't the tassel at the top so how would i do that i can't i can't reach out do they bring me phone books you're in these little machines it's like a little cart goes down the rows and you're in a little basket you're just fucking yoinking the tops of them it doesn't sound that bad but But yeah, I don't want to do it. So anybody got an opening on their tasseling team?

I'm pretty sure Mike just volunteered to. Oh, yeah. Let me get my spray tan and I'll fucking be right out there. We got some people that are interested in Mike getting the spray tan also. I love that we're making a list of things that Mike needs to do. I don't know what the fuck I did wrong to you guys. I think if anybody's interested and you're wanting to know the future of our Patreon, I think the Patreon is going to be signing Mike up for shit. Remember earlier I said I need better friends? you guys are fucking right on cue so thank you for that the good news is they pay us for the page hey if anyone's looking for an extra talking head on their podcast uh i'm i'm looking for a new spot uh no but that's a good the detastling thing is good because it made me think of my dumbest one i laid sod for a summer and it was the fucking worst thing i mean you're yeah covered head to toe there's no point in taking your shoe off and like knocking out the door it's just it i remember taking my socks off when i got home outside and they stayed standing they were just hardened fucking dirt and i was like this is gross it sucked i would never do that again and then i did and then i volunteered at work like five years ago for you know they do volunteer days and they day of caring yeah they had all these jobs and i said give everyone what they want i don care i not picky and they fucking last thing left they go you gonna be laying sod and I go fuck you and that what I had to do all day I was so pissed off yeah there a picture of me I took and I texted my team my legs were just pitch black and I'm like fuck you most people it's like you go out and kick around for a little bit it's like a day off work they help a little bit clean some things up Mike's out there doing would have way rather than in the office like would not have done that again last year I did it we were at the colonel

stadium for like a veterans event like you know handing out waters like that was awesome that's awesome yeah yeah i did a few of those or painted some park benches and some stuff like that i'm like so now i check if if fucking sod's even on there i'm like i'm not doing it nope not doing it so that's why you sign up for shit right well but i he's thinking i'm gonna be a good guy and i'm open for whatever like here because i'm really not that picky it literally could have been just no detasseling and no sod leave me alone that's that's the only two things i don't want to do by the sounds of it so i mean i'm just i'm glad that now like at the pool cleanup it's i always do the grill everybody just knows because i know yeah that's true i don't even have to sign up anymore it's like there it is but that's a that's a messy job some people don't want to do you know so yeah oh i mean good for you yeah i'm not fighting you for that job good for you scraping that fucking year old grease off like smells good though right yeah um oh so anyway yeah um yeah that's my dumbest job so there is by the way all of these jobs i'm glad there are people out there that do them and probably enjoy doing them oh yes i fucking hate the tasseling so well back to the construction thing real quick like you said you know it's so hot i mean our buddy nick you know he's a carpenter and there's those fucking days where it's 95 degrees and i bitch about being in an office sometimes and then on those days i'm like you won't hear a peep out of me right so i don't know how roofers do it like you said how you got burned i always was like why are these guys wearing long sleeves and hats i'd be sweating to death but they're like it's the only

way to do it you know you might be sweaty but you're not getting charred alive so i mean on a roof fuck that so anyway uh we do have one other one which is from my friend linnea and she wrote best first date known to man she's very sweet so she wrote hello to my best first date mr owens first thing is first i have been and always will be a tequila girly so this was when we were talking about drinks she said no training wheels and drinking it like water but during so the weekend we spent together i dated her back a while ago um she said during that weekend he subjected me to malort and he was sorely disappointed that he was in fact the only wuss present and she drank like you did now so pissed off i'm like what the fuck i'm like is something wrong with me like i don't understand it but there's some of you crazy people uh she said i've been listening to your podcast since conception and every episode gets more entertaining and somehow funnier my list for celebrities i can't stand alec baldwin ali wong and cat williams also i personally volunteer as tribute to sponsor the spray tan sean send me your venmo let's make it happen yeah love your guys podcast content humor and it's always much love thank you linea linea shout out to a fellow malort drinker oh god and i like it because i think it's maybe even better to see the look on mike's face when you don't and you just take it like a champ and then he has to go because i i everyone anyone who see me i'm not kidding i fucking gag i hate it and but but you're always down for a good time i'm always down for i will do it because of the joy

i get of watching someone else feel that way sure and then when i do it and then it doesn't do anything to them i'm like why the fuck did i do that that's what happened with your friend at cliffs that one yeah yeah um she took it like a chance she did so yeah shout out to her from chicago girl so she knows she's probably just in her blood i was just gonna say it's just she's ingrained with it so yeah but yeah we had met the funny thing is when we had that weekend we were uh watching an iowa game out somewhere um and we weren't here by the way we were in illinois and we ran into this other couple and just made friends with them and they did it too and they didn't do much either like they did they didn't like it they made a little face but not much and i'm like this is the dumbest i think you were just getting close to chicago like you were like that's true that line of you're on the border there that's true yeah i didn't think about that yeah well from now on i'm never buying it in linoa again congratulations to being somebody's first or best date ever thanks buddy yeah that's a i mean that's a nice little banner you get to wear stop here and make me blush that's awesome yeah that's it that's a question though now granted you you both have been in very long-term relationships i was previously right uh but are you still friends with your exes or like when you were younger and you'd break up like did you stay friends with people i'd still talk to them i don't think it you know i mean i think it was always i don't mean like you're hanging out no i think there was always like a little gap you know i mean like where it didn't you know it wasn't like we were best friends the next day but you know i think that yeah yeah eventually i never i never had like a really nasty breakup

or anything like that but i did have somebody that i dated a long time like on and off like we were it felt like all through college like it's like we were dating or we weren't or today you know i mean it's just like it never really it was you guys were both always kind of hanging out right or we weren't you know or then we go on like a break and we wouldn't see each other for a while and then we were you know i mean so easy ross right yeah right well the breaks were um we both knew they were on a break so yeah that's easier but that's true but yeah i don't know so i don't think i have i just what about you i i mean it kind of depends on how it ended and some of them like it just didn't ever feel like we were gonna stay friends you know yeah so like it kind of depends on that but there's several that that i'm still at least facebook friends with or whatever but it's not like we talk on the regular aaron they're just friends calm down sliding in the dms wait till they hear this wait till they hear your smooth voice on the yeah old pod here no shit right i mean i think it's kind of fun to see at least from a facebook friend perspective to like see that like people have got they've they're married they have kids yeah like where did they end up what are they doing are they doing the career that you know they said they aspired to back in the day or whatever you know or if they were a total bitch like ah he's washing ditches oh if You can't read between the lines.

What he meant is it's really fun to see the fucking train wrecks out there that were, you know, thank God I dodged that bullet. Okay, but we all love a good train wreck. It's hard to look away. I don't have enough of a body count to have too many of those to worry about. He's being very coy, trust me. Well, even if it's not on the body count, just people that you fucking knew in high school. Yeah. Good for you, you dick. I'm glad life gave you one of these. That's the golden middle finger for you at home. yeah every time i go back home i hear about some of those so yeah you're like oh you're right where i thought you'd be yeah i know i i just asked like because like when she emailed like we're still friends and you know she's in a happy relationship and everything and so am i and but i thought about like man i'm i've always like been cool with pretty much everyone you know i think it's unless it's like unless you have a bad following up which i get that but i think it's also different for you now because you're dating like at an older age yeah i mean where you're just more mature like if you if you're let's not get crazy well but you are i mean just naturally you know i mean just naturally you are it's like you know if you i mean if you get a real good crazy then i don't know but um i think that's probably a little of those yeah i think i'll save that one i would like to live to see another day and not just feel cold steel enter my kidney no but yeah no yeah i just that's a that's a good point though as we get older it's like I would hope people in their 40s are being pretty forward and honest with intentions.

Well, if you're not, then fucking don't wonder why you're single. Well, yeah, I mean, like if you're, I never understood the whole, like, I mean, I did the dating apps thing and you know, and I met some cool people on it. I remember, do you remember when you signed up for those? Yeah, I was with you. Yeah. Do you remember? It was the same fucking night that we came up with the idea of the podcast. I know. That's why I just keep screaming. We had some great ideas that night. Dude, we were on fire. Like, that's when we thought of the name that we'll never remember. Yeah, I'll never remember that.

But Mike, he's like, I don't know. I shouldn't. I'm like, do it. He's like, yeah, I'll do it. I'm like, no, fucking get your phone out. You can sign up right now. Because I was nervous. I was like, man, I don't like I'll just meet someone. But then I thought I'm like, I don't go out constantly. And I don't, you know, I'm like, I'm not looking for. And I'll tell you, it wasn't long. And his phone started. I'm like, did you get? He's like, I fucking got someone. I got a match. So weird. I'm like, this is great. But like, you know, Shaun's just a bystander. So he's just like poking the bear, like do it, go.

Say this, say this. Yeah. Cause like, he's got no skin in the game. So it's like, dude, if they're crazy, I'll get to hear about it. This would be hilarious. You know? So, so like Shaun, you never dated in the era of dating apps, right? No. Yeah. No. Same for me. So like when I've had friends that have done that or had, you know, have been in that, then it's always like, oh, let me see it. Let me swipe for you. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So I have done that for friends before, like some girlfriends that are on there and she'd be like, you can go through it i'm like ew she's like oh i was gonna sway with him like what is wrong with you so i'm like laugh laugh laugh laugh we did the same thing because i saw there's a my neighbor jim and i are hanging out all the time and another gal in our neighborhood was single and she brought up the the app and we're like can we see it you know i mean she's like going through fucking guys are ridiculous it's by the way like they're just have to be like i mean so i'm gonna like even like strong and look but it's just all like fucking abs and like so just like nasty like the bios will be like i know i'm a catch so don't waste my time yeah oh yeah like some of these things i'm like oh my god like i was but i was like i couldn't i'm like go to the next one go like i just was right so like entertained by it so that's what i learned though because i obviously i'm not like a fucking beaming thing of confidence or anything right but i just tried to be myself on there yeah and people would go nuts probably worked because and i could not figure it out and people would finally tell me they're like you don't understand the amount of gross pompous overconfident douchebags on these things you know they're like you didn't send me a dick pic in 30

seconds so clearly you're a great guy i'm like what people really do that but they do like i do like guys you're jeez i mean i don't know you're not doing very good they're clearly they must be closing it it must be working but i don't think girls if it's working stop stop and it'll fucking stop i hope or just guys there's some fucking people with way too much confidence yeah and it's it's bad i mean the stories i would hear and that is the one good thing that kind of came out of that is going like man if you're just a dude and you're kind of going through some shit because you're not used to this again just be yourself and i know it sounds cheesy as fuck but if you're just a pretty good guy and you're being honest you're already 50 steps ahead of the other people you know what i mean if you're going through it you need a buddy to drink by him i can i'll come sit we'll show you what's up okay we might we might pitch a podcast you play your cards right that is that is crazy find your buddy that's going through it and ask me if you want to start a podcast so we were there wasn't troy working and he was like kind of i think he was kind of like what are you doing what are you guys doing yeah and we told him and he's like oh let me see yeah yeah he's like because everybody's just like what are those things really like yeah yeah because that's a good point like as guys who aren't single you i mean most of our friends aren't so like you don't ever see anyone on those no if you're a group of a bunch of single people then you all probably look at them together but yeah i don't know i'm sure god it was weird yeah but i met some cool people so yeah it all worked out in a while so i'm happy as shit so well congratulations again for getting props on that and being such a good first date but you are a wuss when it comes to

lord i cry pixar movies too all right i got a text from ben shout out to ben we need to come up with a name for ben because he's basically like a fucking host that's just yeah he's kind of a he's definitely an idea guy our top here for it so our topic king and and uh it's got some good ones so this one was remote producer exactly remote producer ben um he's he texts me topic idea what as a kid seems so easy you didn't even think about it but as an adult is fucking hard and he gives an example he gives a couple examples here he says picking out what's for dinner every night where to go out to eat that everyone will fucking agree on and remembering not to run out of basic household supplies like propane toilet paper he says toilet paper um and shampoo soap soap and shampoo you know um he goes or no he said i'm sorry i read that wrong he goes was there a toilet paper fairy or a shampoo fairy basically when he's a kid because it was always there i'm sorry when he said that in the topic of dinner it fucking hit me like so true like being a kid just like asking my mom all the time what are we having for dinner i don't like that or i do oh okay good i like that you know i mean and now it happens to you and it's fucking hate like every day you know we're figuring out what's for dinner and shout out to ashley she does it way more than i do you know i mean she really carries that burden a lot more than i do so i love you honey thank you

for doing that um but it you know we'll sit down and like make a grocery list we're gonna get and it's like you can't think of one fucking thing to have yeah you know and i don't i don't know i don't know if it's like that for you guys or no when you said that i got it what is the word they use triggered because my kids fucking every week and i love you kids but it's first of all my least favorite thing every week is planning meals and second of all no matter so i have staples that they love so it's like i'll make those well then if you make them too much like you know oh we had that two weeks ago you're like yeah there's you guys like five things i don't know what you want to do so then they're like we'll make other things just come up with recipes i go then you bitch that you don't like them they're like yeah but we just will have to deal with it that's the only way we're going to find new stuff but it's like i can only deal with so many this is gross i don't want this before I throw my hands up and I'm like, I'm fucking making grilled cheese.

You're just going to have to deal with it. You know what I mean? Like, Jesus Christ. There's ramen noodles in the fridge. For example, it's summer now, so we're going to be grilling a lot. We grilled twice already because, oh, your house, so Sunday night, and then what day did we go to the pool yesterday? So two days in a row. Fuck. Okay. So fair, because I did say that too. It was a fair complaint on their part, but also fuck them kids. Yeah, it was. I could grill every fucking day, though, And I think my kids would be like, sounds good. I could literally just have a burger every single day. I actually, shout out to Ben, my cousin.

He fucking, his stove went out. Or he like rented a house and the stove broke and they were like, we're going to replace it. He had to get a stove. Oh, shit. And he cooked all summer on his grill. Like they just made every meal on the grill. Damn. Yeah, that would get hard after a while because you're going to run out of shit. But yeah. But yeah, I mean, so yes, fair complaint when they were like, we just grilled. I'm like, I understand. And so we're going to have dinner at Karis tomorrow. Kara and I were like, we could grill. And we really weren't thinking about the time. I'm like, oh, I can't do that.

I don't do it three days. Like three times in four days. So that's a valid complaint. Just got to throw some chicken in there or something. Well, because that's the point. It's like we go to the pool. Like if it's 90 degrees every day, we're going to the pool after work every single day. And that's till 7, 730. So unless you guys want to eat really late, we're grilling at the pool. We always eat late in the summer, though. like the kit like we just really yeah we were always like we're always like five five thirty people just always have but yeah i mean since not when they were young and you no matter what you ate at like eight o'clock but no it's been a long time now we've always i were normally later anyway but like in i suppose in the winter we feel like when we get home from work the first thing we do is make dinner but now it's like get home well if you have a lot of sports going on too you're screwed there's that or if we'll jump in the pool or do whatever and then we eat after you know so i did say you know i was talking to my daughter the other day i'm like okay we need to come up with some stuff that we can make at the pool or prep for the pool and how you know that's not grown out so it's like we can i mean we can pack sandwiches and wraps but it's not really it's an easy way out you're kind of just picking packing a picnic you know but i'm like hey do you want to swim this is how we swim so that's what we do yeah um other things i can think about then i'm probably a little spoiled on this one but my laundry my mom always did my laundry so really i never was out of um underwear yeah really my wife says oh yeah the underwear for you came yeah yeah yeah i never do that and the one that i run to even more is fucking towels my

mom would always we'd always have i'd always have a clean towel when i got out of the shower you know now like i'll go i'm like where the fuck are all the towels and they're just down in the laundry room stacked up to the what's it like to have parents that love you i know pretty nice I'm kidding I mean your parents loved everyone but yeah that's yeah that's a good point so there's a couple of their you know and then the spice cabinet you know when you're fucking out of that stuff now like it's that or you know the well you have a spice fairy her name's Ashley right she takes care of it we're out of uh Worcestershire sauce or what I just bought that did you yeah we've been out of that for a couple weeks and I went the other day I couldn't fucking find it yeah god damn i get pissed off and laughed god my mind's spiraling now of all the things like that it dude it never fails he knows i'm podcasting but logan's just like no i'm not answering that because he'll be anyway um no but the grocery thing quick we were saying you know like ashley the she does most of that like cara will look at her fridge and just make something up ashley can do that too and actually it blows my mind we'll have some of the best things ever she'll be like uh all of a sudden these things are on the counter and she's like i'm gonna put something together and i'm like she's like i made i made crab stuffed mushroom pizza i like what the she like well i had some mushrooms i had some crab leftover i did i like dude if you don give me a recipe you ain get like i cook them separate here mushrooms if it not on the grill or on the back of the campbell exactly oh my god that's so true no we're kind of i basically need like a general idea yes like

i mean it's like writer's block right if i'm staring at a blank page i struggle to get started But like if I'm like, oh, we're having chicken tonight, I can make some shit up. Like, you know, like at least I have like a, you know, point of origin, something to base it off of. Then I can kind of. Yeah. So. Yeah. I can improvise like them when I have something as a starting point. But if it's like, well, we don't even have any fucking protein. I just imagine Karen, like any of those people that can do it. They just like, it's like Rain Man. They just look in the fridge and like. And it's like connecting.

and numbers are flying and then they're like got it exactly i think that's exactly how it is because we'll you know and by the way i'm very very thankful that they can do that well it's awesome because what's really awesome is that you end up with shit around that you've had for a while and it's like you gotta clean some of the stuff out you know i mean and like the kids like we don't have anything it's like you start opening stuff there's like two fucking freezers full of stuff and like it's like the cabinets they're full like we just needed picks you know get it and also nashley will put some together and we've stretched a couple you know when you really get stretching it's like oh yeah or what are we having for uh breakfast um you know there's probably some when my kids say we don't have anything it means we're out of you know the shit that they can throw in the air fryer or the microwave yeah instantly instantly make yeah yeah like anything that's like super simple that means we're out of that stuff it's like all these kids these days instant gratification if you will yeah that's turds i know but that's how i mean i obviously had kind of a rough home life but yeah i mean we it was like that's what i ate was what's in the freezer it actually surprised it actually kind of surprised me that you're not like good at like kind of putting together like well we got a we never had one piece of cheese and we never had enough stuff to put together so it would i do remember once i was like really hungry and i was like looking i'm like and i i mixed like this is gonna sound so gross i mixed like cream of mushroom soup green beans corn and just cooked it all in like a sheet pan or like a casserole dish together

like ghetto green bean casserole i'm actually on like i mean if i had to do it like no but then we had some frozen uh we had like six chicken nuggets left so i like garnished the top of cooked chicken yeah it wasn't it was bad dude i would get on like i mean that's yeah we're not picky that's Like, if I showed my kids that, they'd be like, what the fuck is that? You know what I mean? So I've been on this, like, you've been watching the baby videos. I've been on this, like, kick lately of struggle meals. Like, people, and they're, like, younger people trying what other people, like, our generation are saying, these are the struggle meals we used to have.

Like, shit on a shingle and stuff, yeah. No, I mean, like, one of them, fuck, we could do a whole, like, segment on this. So you need to write these down. is a future thing but but like they're like oh hot dogs and mac and cheese oh yum oh yeah they had never had it before and they're like holy shit this is good why did we never do this it's so funny we were never big hot dog i'm searching struggle meals right now so i can look at that tonight carol loves that though she's like you got to do cheese dogs i'm like ew but she's like it's cheese and your mac and i'm like there's plenty of cheese in there already you don't need more cheese cheese dogs no not really i'll buy themself i would do i don't i don't know i'm not a big hot so that's a question is how did everyone eat their mac and cheese grown up my grandpa it was always tuna and peas oh that's good peas me even my son's like that now like he like i won't eat mac and cheese if there's not peas in it it's the best that's so that's so good i mean i'm sure it's good it's good i've had it yeah i've had it your house for like yeah we're all broken also he's like i'm making a good meal there's like three boxes of mac and cheese two cans of tuna in a bag of frozen peas.

So good. And it was good. So good. But everyone has a different thing. I've heard of people, like some people are like, ew, tuna in it. But I've met so many people that are like, yeah, that's how we ate it growing up, tuna in peas. I'll fuck around and throw some tuna in there every now and then. Yeah. I would throw broccoli in it. That'd be good. I like broccoli in anything. Broccoli and cheese go well together. Exactly. Okay, so we need to get these struggle meals and then we'll like, we'll all report back and go cook one and be like, try one. Well, I don't remember tasting like that. that's fucking gross.

Well, I remember like ghetto spaghetti is what we used to call it because it was just, no, just like you buy the noodles and the sauce, but no like hamburger in it. So you just, just sauce. Oh yeah. Or then, uh, I heard about people like buying hamburger helper, but not having any fucking hamburger in it. So it was basically, no, just pass. Oh, say I remember being broke. Like, you know, when, like when we had Logan, you know, and we had a lot of hamburger helper. It had the hamburger in it, but boy, i can't even look at hamburger helper now i'm like nope well it's not as good as it used to be but that too i still like it every once in a while just kind of out of it because it's been years since i've had it on the regular but well now you can just make it like because you can just make you know with a little bit non-packaged you know two years ago sometimes i mean when you think about it like if you're struggling for a night for an idea just grab a box there's enough different kinds you know what i mean i'm not against it i do remember those frozen like i'm again i'm not very picky that those voila meals they're like a lot we have all the time chicken voilas yeah we normally keep one in the freezer like they're so good like a i would add like a little bit extra stuff sometimes but we always add another bag of nobody likes it really i'll get a bag sometimes just for me just i love it well we just keep it again it's one of those freezer meals that you know so it's not always frozen pizzas or something like that yeah we have like same thing it'll sit in there and all of a sudden yeah because it feeds the family and it's a way you know it's still not good for you but it's better than that throw the struggle struggle meals on a future podcast

yeah what else did ben have for us um i think that was it i thought there was one other thing he said in there that it's gonna yeah i thought there was too well we never i'm trying to think oh go out to go out to eat where you would but where everyone would agree or the simple that's my kids can never agree now i will say shout out to the bar because i told them when they open i go this is the best goddamn burger you're ever gonna have because it's that smash burgers yeah it's ruined other smash burgers for me like i went and had one when i was on my work trip i'm like this is garbage really yeah that onion one especially but my kids like the plain one without the onions in it but uh when we eat out they both a lot of times will go can we have the bar i'm like yeah i'll go grab some smash burgers and bring out like on our eat out night nice oh dude it's so goddamn good but other than that they cannot fucking agree to save their life sometimes they fucking fight just to see who's going to win.

You know what I mean? That's exactly what it is. Then I've gotten to the point where I'm like, all right, if we can't agree, then we're not going, oh, wait, wait, wait, yeah, what we'll do. I'm like... I can see Soph just being like, whoa, slow down. Hold on. Just give us a minute. We'll figure this out. No, it's more Cooper. She'll hold her ground. He's like, oh, I don't want you to make something stupid and healthy around here. Let's go. Hey, Ashley, that's you and her. Have you guys seen the videos of the guys that are like, uh yeah honey i have a surprise for you yes where we're going out to eat you'll never guess it and then she guesses and he's like yes you got it we're doing it's it's it's how guys basically yeah it's like they're cracking they're like i feel like i feel like we need to cut this i feel like once delete we crack the code like you can't like we can't not the problem is that that they heard it too so they're like yeah you know suspicious now i i literally that's what i'm saying like we got to cut this out of the podcast we know oh shit that's how many people listen that we need to make sure we're ruining it for everybody it's like guy code that we just like all right ladies earmuffs okay just say earmuffs and you can say whatever you want fuck shit piss uh yeah i sent a little clip today to kara and it was a little girl with her dad and she's just whining like i'm hungry and he's like well what do you want she's like i don't want to decide and he's like okay do you want me to pick she goes yes and he's like okay can you even tell me like you want chinese do you want a cheeseburger and she's like just started screaming he's like he looks at the camera and the top comment was like i didn't know they come from

the factory like this like jesus christ like and i will say i don't if i can tell someone really doesn't want to make a decision fine i'll do it but what pisses me off is when they go i'm not pick and you pick and then you say something they go ew not that yeah but pick the right thing yeah you get i want you to pick but you need to pick the right the correct thing yeah you get one and then we're done and then so uh as far as ben said like the toilet paper fairy and stuff like that that's i'm gonna ask my kids like do you guys ever wonder what happens like it just reappears constantly right and also people not putting the toilet paper back on when it's empty drives me fucking irate.

What about if they put it on the wrong way? That pisses me off too. Which way is the right way? There's only one way. If the fucking paper comes out from the back, something's wrong with you. You're broken. Do you agree with that? Yeah. Okay, I totally agree. Okay, we're over the top. Yeah, it's got to be over the top. If this ended up being like a piss in the shower thing and I was the only one, I was going to fucking storm out of this place. Under the bottom is just a fucking train wreck. It makes no sense. You're sitting there fucking, especially if you're at work and you have to use sandpaper for toilet paper and they load it like that.

It's an away game? Yeah. You got an away game? I heard that the other day. It's an away game. It's an away game. The jerseys are scratchy. Yeah, but you have to fish it out from inside there and you're like, you don't know what's been in there and you're, ugh, gross. So gross. I'm going to take my own baby wipes with me when I go places. I always like the videos that people make to tell people they're doing it the wrong way and there's like a spider in there or something oh that's good like yeah don't ever put this on the wrong way that's that'll know i want to that'll learn them yeah i do like that i'm gonna put i'm gonna next time my kids don't put it back on i'm gonna just put a roll of duct tape on there and i'm just gonna leave it and be like figure it out for uh those of you that are interested go ahead to mike's tiktok he's got a good one about toilet paper what you have a good video you on there you made it like toilet paper yeah oh my god you made it back during the pandemic because i remember being very impressed with it i did it's me on the toilet so you're welcome everyone yeah yeah i kind of fucked up one little part of it though it still bothers me but i can't obviously i'm not gonna go back and do it again no i thought you were talking about the toothpaste one well that was a good that one was way good you know what's funny is if you go because i think that's on my tiktok it didn't get barely any views, but I put it on Facebook because someone told me to, and it fucking went crazy. It had a million views, but it did nothing on TikTok.

Well, help Mike out and go to his TikTok because he's got two really good ones on there that I know for sure. Yeah, I want to go viral, guys. Come on. I get paid lots of nothing for doing that. It's going to be sweet. Yeah, someone sent me someone after I did that because i i really did that just because i would go in there and i would get so sick of looking up and seeing the fucking toothpaste all over the mirror i'm like how is this even possible and i was so pissed off and it was the pandemic right but it was like three months later someone forward me a tiktok of a girl doing it she had like 10 million views i was like well if i was that cute it'd be different but she's like a hot 25 year old i'm like after i saw yours i saw a lot of other ones and i was like did he steal it or did he not no i didn't care i didn't your thing that sounds fucking good too i don't get any fucking credit that was a good one this probably was the best one to jump out of the gate with you need that you get your little right listener base and then that would have been long yeah but you can have an old video go viral anytime yeah that's what they say let's do it folks come on come on come on let's do it i know so i did uh i picked up this shirt today because uh you know i'm so we talked about on a podcast how there's a bar shirts.com you can get a different bar shirt yeah and you go i can't believe you've never done that and i was like you're right how i have it because i love that shit right so that's 100 like your style yeah so i'm gonna start like for anywhere i go now like in town that's local i'm gonna buy a shirt and so a couple weeks ago we were at the keg uh which is great little spot um and a friend of mine from high school works there and was talking to her and ordered the shirt she's

Maybe like 60 grand and it was fully furnished with everything. I'm like, that is not bad. I could sell my house. I can live in the bar, right? It's fine. The kids will deal. I heard it leads to a happy home. Living in a bar? Shaun, I can tell from my childhood, it does not.
