Ladies and gentlemen, this is Mambo number five.
00:00:21
You didn't see that one coming, did you? No, I did not. It's always like, what am I going to say? And my fucking broken ass brain is just like something random will pop in. I don't even remember last time I heard that song, but it was the mambos that I have sitting on the desk, isn't it? Oh, I think it was. You did. Dude, that subliminal shit works in there for you. So yeah, he threw a pack of mambas on the on the table and Lou Bega. Here we come. That's how they get you in the fucking checkout line. I just want to get something like mambos. What? Those forever. Yeah. Those little aisles of just bullshit always get me.
00:00:54
I'm like, maybe I need a lighter. I don't fucking need a lighter, but I'm like, it might be good to have my pocket right now. Well, hey, we're back again, buddy. We're back. Oh, man. It's exciting. Welcome. Thanks for joining us again. All the people that join us every week. We missed you. We're happy. We love you and we appreciate you very, very much for new people joining in. Welcome. Welcome to the party. We're going to grab a drink. Actually, Erik, they should do that, too. They should grab a drink. You should grab a drink. Erik's going to, it looks like he made us a special one for real, because it's got garnish.
00:01:32
It's, it's our second drink we've ever had that has a garnish with it. The first one was from Maddie. Thank you, Matt. Uh, Shaun and I suck. We never have garnishes. Well then again, Erik sucks too, because this is the first time he's done it. So now it's going to start being a competition. So I realized I kind of cut myself halfway off that I am Shaun. Yeah. And I'm moist, moist Mike and i'm eric yeah and this is the we're still cool right podcast we are still cool right this is why we need an intro yeah yep that way we don't have to say that every time sean doesn't change it every time since he's yeah but i like it you never know what you're gonna get you know what i mean never know yeah it i don't want it you don't want it to be too cookie cutter something for some boring consistency we'll see yeah it's all right missionary gets a job done sometimes.
00:02:18
I'm a big fan of it. There's nothing wrong with old reliable, you know what I mean? That's what Bush Light is. It's just old reliable. I should put that on a shirt. Missionary and Bush Light. Just old reliable.
00:02:32
So Erik, what the fuck are we drinking? So this one came from Matt too. He sent it over to us and inspired me and I decided to put some garnish level effort into it. This is for real. So this is called a Kentucky Buck. Kentucky Buck. I will say it looks way better than that sounds because that sounds like it's got deer piss in it or something. Yeah, yeah. No, the Kentucky Buck is like a legit fancy cocktail. I am not a trained bartender, but I did my best. Yeah, you did great. So it has bourbon, simple syrup, lemon juice, strawberries kind of smashed up, and a little bit of just a couple of drops of Angostura bitters, and then you top it with ginger beer.
00:03:21
Quite a bit of ingredients in this. Yeah, so it sounds like a $60 drink we're having here right now. And we're having it in glasses instead of red Solo cups. Right, it is fancy. Jesus Christ, yeah. We need to go out to a nice dinner after this. I love it. Well, cheers, boys. Cheers, folks. Cheers to all you out there, and let's get this drink. oh that's delightful that's oh that's good i like that man so you said bourbon which i get that and then lime juice i get that there's something else i know the bitters but wasn't there another was there another alcohol no oh okay the ginger beer you're probably getting oh that's what it is yep i actually like i was it wasn't an exact science because we're not using like a highball glass week we should be and all that stuff but the uh ginger beer i kind of put it in tasted it put it in tasted it with mine just to get the right ratio yeah so eric's already hammered i was i was quality testing yep i was just making sure the bourbon was bourbon so if all of a sudden the levels start fucking up and you know like everything shorts out just We had to carry Erik to his truck.
00:04:34
No, he dropped a garnish on it. So there's a strawberry on here and God, he put us to shame. Well, and you know what's so cute about it? He has a little floating chunks of strawberry. You really did it. Would you just punch it with your fist or I just smashed it with my finger. So you got finger strawberries. I knew it tasted like you a little bit. That's the flavor that we're missing. Well, I will say it's really goddamn good. So if you're out there, I would definitely try it. thanks matt for the inspiration it sounds like so is this the one he okay yeah yeah it's the exact thing okay i was thinking it was a little bit different it comes through he really does the he's sent us one thing there one thing for sure there's a lot of ingredients yeah that's how you know we didn't do it right because the ones i find it's like oh i can put these two things together i can dump this beer in this uh cherry or apple and bush light lime oh look what we did i i did I did reply to him in the text message.
00:05:30
I don't know if we can use fresh fruit. That's a little too healthy for us. Yeah, I know. He had any puree or some alcoholic strawberry brandy or something. He had a hookup for us. He had that, whatever that stuff was, yeah. No, I had to go to Hy-Vee to get some stuff anyway, so I saw strawberries. You should have used gummy strawberries, just the candy.
00:05:50
That'd be good, too, though. Well, it's delicious. We actually saw Matt last night. Erik, you saw him for a second, because you were leaving when he was getting there but we went and did bar bingo at a local spot one three times by the way uh yeah i got some swag from exile uh but yeah matt came out and had a beer it was a good time so i love bingo i that's something i want to talk about i fucking love bingo i don't care great is it still cool but i love it i think it'll never not be cool it's something to do it's just yeah i don't think it sounds cool but then when you go you're like fuck That was a blast.
00:06:25
And I'm notorious for every time someone's like, I'm like, fuck! Look at their card! I thought they were going to take Mike out and string him up. He won like three in a row. I won the first one. Literally, the first one was just regular bingo. And the first four ends they called I had. So I got just one. That's all my card had was a bingo. And you were just done right away. And I never win. So I was like, what the hell? I'm like, that's crazy. Cool, I won one. I got a little bike bag. that has exile on it i was like oh that's cool and then i won a couple rounds later and then and then cara won twice so we had like this pile of stuff in front of us that's awesome and everyone's like you guys can't come back and play i would totally rather win that stuff too like swag than yeah like we always used to go with ashley's parent or her grandparents and we would go every other week to the vfw and have dinner and then play bingo with them see that sounds awesome i mean it was like you played for the whole night for 12 bucks so it was like when we had no money you know like 20 or 30 got us like our meal and the bingo card go for the night and then if you won you'd probably get yourself back to even or whatever so was this when smoking was still allowed oh yeah there was definitely smoking especially in the vf i think he's still smoking there i don't know that's a joke i always had like when people talk about smoke because i remember going with my grandmother being going we were young and we'd go to like uh i think it was emerald nights it was called or something and you walked in and you're just like holy fuck i mean dude it's
00:07:55
this fog that doesn't leave it's just like this constant cloud and you're like that is there's a non-smoking section i don't know why yeah because you're just like maybe if you brought a fan and like blew it away but just means nobody's sitting next to you smoking yeah that means yeah yeah they're not blowing it in your face exactly but like anything like they'd sell food and you'd get You're like, well, that smells like an ashtray. Drink something like that tastes like an ashtray. You're like, okay. Somehow this smells like my childhood. Yeah. Yeah, right? With a name like Emerald Knights, it has to be either a bingo club or a strip club.
00:08:28
For sure. I think it was like... Even if it's both. One day in a day or a late night here. Oh, my God. I think you're onto something. Holy shit. New business. Yeah. Stripping and daven. That's what we're going to call it.
00:08:41
I love it. Hey, there's not really bingo halls anymore. We could totally pull that off. yeah but uh no i i don't even know i always wondered what it was it's like knights of columbus it was like a variation of that which i don't what are all those the eagles lodge like i mean just clubs i guess you call them their fraternities fraternity yeah like so knights of columbus is the catholic version of the masons basically they didn't want to support the masons because they didn't say you have to be a catholic so that's right that's the devil side their own version yeah yeah because i see i mean like we have eagles lodges here and they're always doing like bingo nights and you know fish fries and stuff like that which we used to be on a fish fry team for the nights of columbus and that was some of the best ever i think i remember that actually we would join that it was the one that was downtown that they got down and we used to be down there and we joined somehow ben got us hooked up to a team and next thing you know we were once a once a year we were on this during lent yeah and uh but you can drink for free the whole time that you're there so i mean the people making the fish okay yes toasted yeah so get there early you know and everyone else is like literally one hand with beer and the other hand with a spatula so it was great we had a blast when we did it we had so much fun fish fries are so underrated like i i love them like when someone's just like uh like i know you know our buddy kyle's done one before i think kevin's done did one that he does a bunch of towels yeah that's all i mean but like even if you go to them though the only downside is they're generally on friday and we're always
00:10:12
doing something else exactly it's just like a bad time for us to go like it'd be cool yeah i mean it makes sense it's a lot right but that's yeah they would just do them on like wednesday nights i'd be there like every time but oh yeah whatever fish fries for the win they are good though yeah i'm a ben on them forever but i i would like to i don't get tired of fish i love fish we always um for the the dmla the youth group the shriners host us and let us get the money out of it and stuff but we do one uh good friday yeah oh so you got the big one yeah they're really nice yeah that's really because everyone's in it for the first week you know and then it the windows off after that yeah i tried it catholic got the first week so you know cons yeah i was trying but someone made bacon and i fell it's all you can eat and like people just keep coming and it's never even that expensive it's like maybe like 15 but you're like that's so cheap for like all you can eat fish that's crazy kid it was five bucks dude don't let's not get started on that we'll sound real old real fast how old i am on here right so we know that's true i believe i believe the exact age was old af those were good times what'd you guys do this week uh we had we had a great weekend we went down uh down to the lake so baseball's done so we got down there uh coop and i went down actually we went down early we i've been i was down there tuesday all the way through sunday oh yeah i did see a snap from him
00:11:42
like first day on the boat yeah so him and i went down there because the boat was making a weird noise like a beeping noise or putting it away last time a beeping you said it was like this loud is like three beeps and then i came i shut the boat down and then i didn't do it again but i then we had uh we had well remote producer ben was coming down with his family shout out ben so they are coming down so i wanted to get down there and run the boat again in case of an issue that i could get it fixed before they got down there because once it's on the weekend you screwed yeah you just can't get over there and plus you know i mean that's how you come over there you don't want to come over and like not be able to get on the water so so it was a good excuse for cooper and i just to dump out and head down there um and yeah so we went down tuesday night and him and i hung around and got some crap together ran the boat out every day never had an issue with it that so i was just gonna say it didn't happen again it didn't happen and and we ran it hard a few times too so i was like feeling good you know i mean it was one of those at first i'm like well i'm not gonna go too far away in case yeah you know i mean i don't want to get way across the lake and then have have it start fucking up that's why boats hear the shit out of me because it's like i i think it me taking out and then it not doing it again would make me feel worse because i'm like fuck you just want to do something so you can go over and get it right yeah that's it's the same thing when your car is broken and you like take to the mechanic they're like it's not doing it for me you're like bullshit and then you get home and it starts doing it again i'm like well it's really big for boats because yeah i don't know then they just start working on you
00:13:13
just start paying them the minute that they're they start putting that boat their clock starts running and you don't want to be on the ozark stalled out somewhere well the nice part is if you are there's actually options there's actually tow boats down there there's actually things that that you can haul it's expensive right to get it but generally boaters help each other out because they've all been you know they're all worried about the same thing so a lot of times if you get yourself in a hole as long as it's not unreasonable people will help pull you back or help get you somewhere you know there's somebody with a battery pack to help you jump it you know it's just like people just really kind of try to help each other out i mean there's plenty of assholes out there too what no yeah um so yeah so it was great so ben ben joe and his family came down um and and it was great to see them i mean i mean ben's like someone i saw like every day of my life when i was younger now that they moved to kansas city we don't see each other anywhere near as much as we used to so it's just really nice to hang out with him and yeah and just get caught up and we we went to a couple places went checked out a couple bars um what was the one we went to that like everyone was stripping and like coconuts yeah coconuts not new coconuts this time because right the kids not really friendly it's not really no to Frankie and Louie's which is one that's got like a beach so it doesn't have a pool but it's like they get sand and everything oh that's cool we went there and ate actually Ben's both his daughters are like amazing volleyball players and they have sand bitch second pitch sand beach volleyball good old sand bitch set up and so those
00:14:48
who ran up and jumped on a team and started playing and then here comes cooper he's like yeah i'll go i'm like you've never played volleyball once his life next you know he's on a team i see him diving all over the place just kind of that you know if the kid played lacrosse on a whim he can do volleyball normal thing he just shows up you know with his bleach blonde hair and like you fit right in there buddy so he's back right so we did that and hung out for a while coed out for a while and then we went to another bar which is by our house um kind of where we get gas and stuff the boathouse and that was a blast went down there and and uh they have a sweet pool so in good food so everyone's kind of able to spread out got some food kids could they're like their pools broke up and that part of it is like family friendly and the other part is the then the kids can't go over there oh that's cool so it makes it a little bit nicer so you don't have a jumping on here or anything like that but yeah was it super busy we jumped in like the whole weekend not too bad not it really wasn't too bad um but there was a big aquapalooza was going on and um make party cove cool again or something or revive it which both those events were away were further away from us so i think most of the traffic was down there because the aquapalooza event was huge um i saw some video of like a drone flying over aqua palooza i don't know if it was there but yeah and this uh pontoon just broadsides one of the smacks what yeah yeah how do you do that
00:16:19
it looked like they're filming a promo video with this drone and this pontoon just like it almost looked intentional just like it did look intentional but then if you look at it like i paused it a few times there's kids on the front of the pontoon oh my god there's people in the water them in the back I really hope it was a mistake. I mean, because otherwise... How big was the boat that hit the pontoon? No, it was the pontoon that hit the other boat. Oh, was the other boat big? It was probably about the size of my boat. How do you not see that? So it's just someone being an idiot? I think it was an accident.
00:16:52
Like they hit the gear, which is easy to do. Jesus. If you just don't pay attention. Once you start it, if you bump it. Yeah, if you bump it or depending on how they are. I mean I done it before an accident You know thank God I just didn do anything I hope it was something like that and not just somebody being an asshole and like you know hitting somebody because there was off the back of that boat there was people that were swimming right in the water you know so it's like you're gonna kill somebody yeah I mean literally that's how that should happen so so yeah so we weren't that was further away from us so we didn't make it that far so it made it a little bit less busy it is crazy watching videos of like you know some of those coves and how many you know what I mean it's like holy all linked up together you know and when they do a big event like that then everybody ties up like you pull up on purpose and tie up a lot of the coves we go to there'll be some boats tied up but then like we'll be out by ourselves unless we know like we never go up and tie up to strangers yeah unless you do like one of those events then kind of expected because then yeah otherwise it's how you keep it going otherwise yeah because you can get more boats essentially in the cove if everybody's tied up because otherwise you have one boat and you got to watch for the swing then i feel like getting out somewhere bitch it is well once you do that you kind of tie up and once you're tied up on both ends you're you're kind of screwed you know you're stuck it's no you don't drop in and drop out you know yeah something like that you're you're there for the day so yeah so we didn't go to it but it was so it was good i mean we had a
00:18:25
a blast it was absolutely perfect um well remember to remind yeah show me that video after this because i never said was that did it go viral like all over the place or yeah it's well it's about a lot of that shit shows up on my feed just because of the ozarks yeah i saw a bunch of that yeah my mine has been showing me all kinds of ozark stuff because we've been talking about it so it drives air nuts we were at the pool the other day and you said something like yeah this fucking happened because of course because we were talking about it in front of my phone I was like, yeah, dude, they're always listening.
00:18:57
The only thing that's all over my fucking, well, we'll get to that. Go ahead. Well, as I say, the funny thing, so Benjo comes up with all these ideas, and he had a bunch of them down there. I was in the water. I don't remember them. I'm like, dude, I'm not going to remember these. But one of the things I remember what he said is, you know how he said in last week, what are some things that you thought were going to be a bigger deal when you became an adult? Quicksand, yep. Yep. Piranhas. didn't you think as a kid like weird doubts someone was gonna get eaten by a piranha for sure well and and the thing is like if you stepped in the water and they started you're you're just you're they eat you that fast yeah and you come out as a skeleton yep right away yeah exactly like like you stick your leg in and you just pull out bone three seconds later just just clean bone and then you find out like piranhas don't even like basically attack humans for the most part like you know what i mean like i don't i think there's less than a person ever killed more people die by coconuts every year yes yes so um so need to say we were floating coving out drinking and then all of a sudden ben just goes piranha i'm like what yeah i think like you know when i was a kid i thought it was gonna be a bigger deal so in the same vein like leeches i was just gonna say that one giant snakes like yeah because was it stand by me where the leech yeah yeah i'm like so i'm like well if you go in water you're have fucking leeches all over you i've never had a leech on me in my life you know what i mean it's every guy yeah i will say it well it didn't affect me as a kid but once i grew up and heard
00:20:27
about those little fucking parasites that swim up your people when you're peeing a fucking that way you can't be in the water oh my god maybe holy shit is this therapy i just had a breakthrough somebody made that shit up just so you wouldn't be in the water well i don't pee in the water i i have to be touching that's that's the rule so and so it makes me wonder if a ladder and pisses all over the boat i do not hey i the girls taught me that all right that the the hover piss but yeah i don't know it's weird but yeah i mean those things are real though i think they're in like the amazon though it's not like yeah you know but they've like reverse barbs so you can't like pull them ah god anyway moving on so yeah that was that was our weekend how about yours that's a fun ass weekend it was good yeah uh it was good uh we just kind of chilled around town we uh went to some thrift stores me and the daughter and thrift store karen jen i fucking thrift oh i'm learning on this podcast the more we talk about shit i'm just like an 80 year old woman i was like you know i like thrifting i know i don't even really buy anything but i i think it's because it's nostalgic to see shit from when we were kids so like my stepdad growing up always had like cool ashtrays and like just antique like brass a brass eagle and like he you know what I mean, all that like manly shit that you could also put like you're in a place where you put your circle on, like in the wings.
00:21:49
He just had all that shit all over the place all the time. And when you go into a thrift shop, that's like all you see. And I'm like, I still look at ashtrays and go like, God, I want that. I don't need a fucking ashtray at all. It will never get used. Fuck you. You know what? Just for that, I'm not going to get the lighter. You just lost them $2. Yeah. I don't know what it is, but I enjoy doing it. I mean, every now and then I've bought in something. but like you know antique i don't want antiques but we talked about the buffalo wild wing sign i almost bought like you just never know what you're gonna find and that's fun to me so i did buy whose idea was it to go it was mine well here's why because so a friend of mine diana she's awesome she has a store called vintage to die for in town and they were having a big sale saturday and i hadn't been in there in you know a month or so so i actually have a sweet uh picture of dogs playing poker that i got there like a couple months ago i always wanted one of those right so right and it's old and you know legit so that's why we went because they were having a sale but then we just kind of piggybacked that into going to a couple other places so yeah once it gets in your blood you can't stop like a network once you start feeling once you smell those old people walking around you're like mothballs for real it smells like murder she wrote in bengay you're just like let's fucking go so yeah was full uh you and jen just fired up to you since she oh yeah become you know an 80 year old woman all of a sudden so yeah yeah i am lucky that i found people that enjoy doing it yes but shout out this is not shocking is all women so uh but yeah so we
00:23:23
did that we went out to lunch the kids and i and karen nick joined it we went to the bar and had amazing food because i love that place and then uh we had people over watch the ufc fights that that night yeah how how was it who was uh so i was really excited to see that so the main event was dustin poirier and max holloway and everyone knew it was dustin's last it's it was his retirement fight and i i fucking he's one of my favorite fighters so and i love max too so it's kind of like either way but since it's retiring i'm like i want him to win he didn't he didn't every single fight on the main card though was a decision so every single one which i don't mind that if it's like a barn burner and it's like super exciting but i mean the oddly in my opinion the best fight was the main event and they didn't get fight of the night so i that was weird to me and i we were busy all day so i didn't get to see the prelims or anything like i usually do so um they were good fights you know but it's just i'm like looking at the time because you know the main event's five rounds that's a minimum of like 35 minutes with like walk-ins and post fight you know and you're kind of watching you're like because they don't i mean i'm sure the ufc pays extra if it goes past midnight i think that's kind of how it goes but you're watching you're like oh shit it's 12 15 and the we're still on the co-made event like dana's gonna be doing out some cash on this one so yeah it ended after midnight so but yeah they're good fights too old to stay up that long fucking for real i went to bed that i couldn't sleep because i think my body was like what are you doing i guess we'll just stay up i'm like it's fucking 12 30 like yeah it sucked so that's
00:24:55
the only problem i mean if they wanted to bump those up a couple hours i'd be fine with it do you remember when we were young in our like when we were 21 or whatever and you'd hear how adults would go out at like four and then they're home by like eight or nine yeah and i was like what that's fucking silly now you're like oh that's wonderful shit yeah now it's like day drinking is way better way better it's not even close you can do 2 a.m shit at three in the afternoon dude and i've said for a long time now like probably 15 20 years that like nothing good happens after midnight it's like just get home you know what i mean yeah so yeah so that was good just made you sound even older somebody get my walker i gotta i gotta piss smells like ben gay in here denture cream and ben kate god damn right anything else no that's pretty much it like i said it was a good weekend how about you eric uh so i uh had a youth group event thing this past weekend and uh our friends from fun not fancy tim and specifically tim othout catered the event for us man he did an amazing job made me look great because you know all i did was just find the right guy hey once you're done talking about it i'll talk about the dinner i had sunday it was fucking delicious did you go over there i was like we just got back i'm like i don't have the energy yeah so like the big thing is like we have a banquet on saturday night and i wanted to make
00:26:28

00:33:34
Because when he finally released something, he's like... And obviously, I'm going to butcher this. I didn't fucking memorize it. But it was something along the lines of, it's unfortunate that during a private moment, this got blown up. And it's like, a private... Dude, you don't get to fucking be the victim now. You fucked up. Own it. That's the only thing you can do. Don't say it's too bad that I was trying to do something shady, but I got caught. your private moments don't happen in public places right right with not your wife like not it's not the look bro so well you know what fuck that guy moving on uh so yeah no i gonna take another stance maybe she was a real bitch hey she worth a lot now It takes two so who knows That true Who knows Maybe I on his side Oh shit That ought to get some pink.
00:34:26
Speaking of controversial, guys, I just want to remind everyone that Mike didn't say that. That was Shaun. And you could email him at worstofcoolrightatgmail.com. Please put attention, Shaun, in the subject line. And Mike will definitely read it.
00:34:42
on air oh fuck yeah yeah that's good speaking of that do we have some emails we do oh yeah do you want to read them or i sure i can i don't care i'm like i can pull out my phone but yeah you've got all the give me a minute why don't you guys keep talking for a second there's something funny topic yeah isn't that the saturday life skit when they're like oh yeah i sorry oh there it is it was like i was waiting for the crack um this is just like totally off topic but it was like over christmas time we anytime i find like a gag gift like you know how amazon will just be like this is on clearance or whatever and it's something silly i'll get it because if we have like we'll do a friend's game and like there's always a million of those christmas parties where you get invited to it where it's yeah bring a gag gift or a white elephant gift yeah so i got this cup and you know remember during covid everyone was sending people links of shit and it was the big black dude on the bed with the fucking five and five pound hog hanging off yes i don't know what that that guy's name is barry it's barry it's barry but he died didn't he he did yeah rest of peace barry and your giant fucking hog so i like there was a coffee cup of that that went on clearance and it was it's black but then if you put well of course it's black but then if you hey oh but then if you put a hot liquid in oh my god this just sounds dirtier the more i talk about it once you fill it with hot coffee unveils the picture the image show so we we did some like fun games around christmas time with the friends and kara won that in one of the games so this was
00:36:17
like a couple months ago but i forgot about it and she asked her son to go get her some coffee and she has that cup but she doesn't use it she's saving it for like we're brothers in town or something well he grabbed that cup and so he like was telling he came up he goes i went to use another cup and I started seeing something show up so I quickly put that one down and then grabbed another cup and I was like oh my god like you need to put that farther back in the cabinet so made me laugh so he's never even realized that that's not his name was Barry Wood but that wasn't his actual name like that's a good name that was when he started doing porn stuff so he made one of the best things I saw were people turn the light switch Nick and Jens still have some on their light switches I was like that's where I saw it Do you want to know his real name?
00:37:05
Sure. Barry McCockiner. It was a secret for a long time. And then there was recently a Vice documentary. On him? A couple years ago, I guess. His real name was Wardy G. Jobert III. No wonder he changed his name. Wardy? Wardy. Wardy. Like W-O-R-D-Y? W-A-R-D-Y. Oh. Wardy. Wardy. Yeah, it's not a good porn name. Just fucking hard to say. I'm surprised a guy could walk around with that thing in his pants. Jesus Christ. An old tripod over there. I just wouldn't have pants. I know. Yeah, exactly. I would just be at the gym all day. How are you going to make money?
00:37:51
I'm sure this is going to work. It's going to pay off. Just gray sweatpants. Yeah, just have someone following around filming people's reactions as he walked by. They'd be like, did you see that? some of those are funny that i've seen too as the guy that's stretching you know like and then they show other people like looking up like he'll be stretching by the window and he's got a big oh like a fake heart on yeah like a big cucumber yeah and then all of a sudden they'll show the girls like like by the window and they're like looking a little bit like oh my god yeah like but they're just as bad as we are they can't stop looking either yeah it's true about it all right the biggest thing lately that you know you got on these rabbit holes of something funny online but but there's these twins and they freak people out like because one will walk by and say something to someone like, hey, do you know where the planet fitness is?
00:38:36
And they're like, all right over there. And then he quickly dips around a corner and then the other twin comes out wearing the exact same thing. It says the exact same thing and the person's like, and then they just walk off and you see the person contemplate life for like five minutes. Like what the fuck is happening? Like there's a glitch in the matrix and I'm the only one that saw it. You know, it's hilarious. That's funny. All right. Should we do some emails? Yeah. Yes. All right. So our first one is from Kelly. I know her. Kelly says, after the podcast today, I have been thinking of all the things Adam says that make him sound like he is 1,000 years old. So yeah, we've talked about Adam, how he's been get off my lawn since he was born, basically. He was like the first 16-year-old. Yeah, so good call, Kelly. Go ahead. So tonight, you guys, she says in quotes, you know, guys, I might sound old saying this but i love werther's originals they are just so good you know what this is why we're so yeah this is why we're related i love them where there's so good they are yeah i like i mean i i love it but do they taste the same like if you just pull them out of the package or are they better out of the bottom of like a mom's purse that has like 50 000 things on top of it they're better in a bowl like grandma and grandpa's amen go over there and that's the best one you can get that's they're in like a crystal bowl yeah yeah water for crystal you know they've had forever in there yeah hey you can find those at vintage shops just saying yeah thrift stores go out fun fact i bought a crystal thing you gotta make sure that you don't put like alcohol in that because most of it's
00:40:08
lead-based crystal and oh shit i didn't know that alcohol like that explains a lot for display purposes not not to store your alcohol i was like i'm gonna make a fancy bourbon decanter and i was sitting here like why did you buy that was it for werther's like no it was it was on a it was on an estate sale and i thought it looked cool and i'm like i can make a bourbon infinity bottle see now that's another thing i've never been to an estate sound i really want to go to one you'll say anyway it's a it's a crush at least you know but it's a fancy one you took something fucking old like an estate sale and then you made it cool by trying to make it a bourbon decanter like so i'm like all right all right wait a minute okay wait a minute hold on are The candor's still cool?
00:40:48
Is that fucking cool? If you drink whiskey, it is because everyone has an infinity bottle that they make. So it's like, at least that's cool. I think they look cool no matter what. You don't have one? Yeah, I do. Do you? Yeah. I don't ever see it displayed out there. It's on display because the kids, but it's up in the thing. No? I mean, I have dipped into it.
00:41:10
That's what I mean. Like the old school. You look in the movies. They pop it and always pour it out. I know. And it always looks so much cooler when they do it. I know. I want to get one really bad and Ashley shot me down. I'll get you a glass one. Not crystal. I'm going to get you a, I'm going to get you a base one. I'm already struggling to get through things. You don't need to add. I'm going to get you the assault rifle one where it's like a gun.
00:41:33
That wasn't that like cologne bottles. Yeah. Yeah. Yes, it was. All right. Sorry. Okay. Back to the email. It's candy for anyone younger than 70, by the way, I have so many more, but just had to share this one. damn good thing he's pretty amen so she had mentioned a topic what's your favorite candy do you lean fruity chocolatey always on the fruit end I like it yeah you are I like all of Mike and Ike's Dots Dots are good I don't know the last time I saw someone buy Mambos I don't even know that I was like literally sitting right there. Impulse. Impulse. Impulse. I mean, it was so impulsed by.
00:42:18
Mm-hmm. I agree. I used to be more chocolate, but as I've gotten older, like, you know, I try not to eat sweets for reasons, but like, I don't know. Like, fruit snacks are fucking delicious. It makes me feel like I'm being healthy. I'm like, it's fruit, baby. It's fruit. You're right. Yeah. It's not real fruit. Same with daiquiris and this drink. It's got strawberry in it. Yeah. I am equal opportunity candy. You're good all around the world. All of it. Like, I'm not a big coconut. I mean as I get older I like coconut but like back in the day I hated like almond joys I love almonds but I've always liked them I've always loved almond joys you know how people leave them and they're like nah I'm like I'm good I'll fucking eat it I wish there was more almonds in it but I still need almonds the coconut sucks it's fucking good I should say I've never been I thought I was so excited to have coconut for the you know like because it's tropical you know i mean i'm gonna love this and it's as i've gotten older now i do like it yeah now i will say i was so excited to finally try coconut water a few years ago because it got big i'm like i love coconut this is going to be like a game changer for me it tastes like asshole dude i've never even had it oh it's gross i don't mind it if it's like flavored you know it's like it's like a sports drink that is coconut water based well it's supposed to be so good for you so i tried just like straight coconut not like you know anything added to it and i mean you would it does not taste like coconut it's like it tastes like water it's kind of like a little bit rancid coconut is what it to me i don't know i didn't wasn't a fan maybe i'll find a drink with coconut water and i definitely lean more
00:43:52
to the sweet to the fruity candy for doing that over chocolate but my number one thing is ice cream like if i'm gonna have like i love ice cream i would i would agree with that like just the How about going to bed like once? How about this?
00:44:08
If you were to have a chocolate candy of some sort, bar or whatever, what would it be? So, I mean, like the old reliable, the Snickers delivers every time. But when I get outside that, whatchamacallit, big fan of the witchamacallit. Those are so underrated. Yeah. Big fan of that.
00:44:28
The Stork one ball, bar, bars, where it's like a store. it's a store oh score score s-k-o-r yeah score not store those are fucking good score those are good um and then 100 grand okay those would be like some of my those are good sleepers how about you mikey the i'm a big peanut butter person so like i know it's not a bar but like i love just a Reese's cup or anything anything i would i would put that in i think so it's in the candy aisle yeah it's chocolates in the candy aisle i will also say the reese's take five i think is what they're called yeah it has like a pretzel in it fuck those are good those are good yeah how about you yeah what's it what's mccallum 100 grand are my favorites yeah 100 i i really enjoy a snickers like actually sometimes if i'm just like you know they had the commercials about like being fucking hangry oh yeah snickers like sometimes i get that way and it's like if i'm not finding something else to eat i'll just oh not at home but like you know i'm like out and about and i need to stop and snickers do do oh yeah now let me say this i will tell you what candy bar i think fucking sucks and i all right and i know it's gonna piss someone off i'll actually name two one way more than the other the one that i think is the worst candy bar known to man and i don't even know why exists is fucking three musketeers i think they're disc i don't know what is in that but it's fucking gross even if you handed me it and i was starving i'd be like i'm good i don't want it the only other one beside that and it's not as bad as that but i also i
00:46:00
just don't think they're good is the milky ways it's basic milky ways very similar nougat to the three musketeers yeah so those two i just they can get fun neither of them are my favorite i'll eat them but they're not my favorite yeah for sure um all right how about this what's your favorite um m&m flavor because they have all you know you have regular ones you have peanut you have peanut butter yeah caramel yeah yeah what's your favorite eric do you got a favorite peanut butter peanut butter yeah me too i like peanut i i do like i like peanut more than like i think regular m&ms are stupid i'm just gonna say it they're they're boring the chocolate's not that good i don't really see the point of it peanut ones i'll eat all day all right so my other question is then so really bad habit that we used to get into is we'd always have snicker bars at home like the little fun size ones all right so you have those i know i know what you're gonna say on the counter the refrigerator or the freezer yep i knew where if you're good where do you put them i think cold is better i think freezer is the best move but sometimes it's a pit like if they're frozen frozen they're a bitch because like you can't bite through the goddamn thing but i do think i prefer them frozen if i had to pick how about you i fucking hate frozen candy it makes me feel like my teeth are gonna break like refrigerator i mean i'll throw it in the refrigerator if it's like hot like it's gonna melt you know like i don't want it straight up
00:47:31
just room temp so perfect this is funny because my number one picks refrigerator so all three of us are a little different a little different yeah but i will go refrigerator freezer then counter yeah okay and counter's fine but yeah you're right if it's like hot you're like get like well i mean obviously i'm not talking about like the i know no i know you know like just the your regular room temperature also those snickers ice cream bars are fucking on another level yeah if it's made to be that way and it's like yeah that's completely different it's different but then those they're also ice cream so they it's they don't become the block that like that yeah the caramel does when you when the caramel freezes that gets pretty little dicey yeah i don't like anything that makes me feel like my teeth are gonna like break like it when you bite down on it it's that that's fair yeah i'm like no yeah i'm the other way i like to live on the edge yeah so that was a very long answer to kelly's questions i don't even think you're done with her email but maybe you're not quite but close i know people listen to some feeling on candy bar one way or another so yeah this is a great one to email in on how you feel about yeah fruit to chocolate or maybe what's your favorite candy bar and what fucking candy bar do you hate do you go ahead throw it out there because everyone i feel like has one they hate i feel like i won and a lot of people hate almond joy and mounts because they're like those are trash okay so one last question on the candy because i think it'll be a fun continuation what if you if you had the crystal candy dish
00:49:01
sitting on the table at your house and you get to pick what's in it you know so you can just walk by and grab one what is it of anything any hard candy so it has to be something that like just sits in that candy dish of a hard candy so we do not worry about it melting you know any of that stuff we do it a lot with m&ms i mean a lot of times we'll get a bag of m's and pour it into this candy dish that my parents gave us like and then i picked the peanut m i'm thinking like you pull it out of a wrapper and pop it in your mouth and you you know so like root beer barrels cinnamon discs werther's like things along those lines are there any like if you had to pick a hard candy what would it be okay i would do just off my dome here i do lifesavers yeah you know that are in the individual ones because again that's more of the fruit for the fruity not the mint too. Yep, not the mint.
00:49:53
Or some of my favorite ones were the strawberry. You know, the package looked like a strawberry. You pull it out and it was like a little liquid inside. That's what I was going to say. Oh my god, we all agree. They're so fucking good. My grandma always had those and I would go through. Does anyone even know what it's called? So if anybody, you can't see this. I can look that up. Erik's ready to punch me because I took his candy bars and then his sleeper one that you knew he was going to drop on us and damn it's like what are we doing over here yeah and i i feel like i've never seen them in a store but like i'm sure you can buy them but i've only seen them in people's houses sitting in a dish um they call them strawberry bonbons but they're not like a bon bon like a chocolate like an ice cream yeah like that like most of the brands call them a either filled hard candy or a bonbon god damn they're good though those are good there's yeah i mean i don't think you can beat that i will say i like mints too though like like some people would do like the uh i don't even know what they're called they're kind of hard but they're they don't stay hard oh you're talking like the wedding wedding mints kind of yeah i always like those too but i love mints like i always have mints in my car i'm not a gum person i'm more of a mint person do you like those little like flower soft things that they do at weddings you pick them up no because in your mouth no because they're like the one that's there's something with the texture it's like a sugar candy kind of if it's butter yes that same way too yeah no the butter like the creamier ones i like the sugar ones no i don like those it too it they too sweet yeah oh man boy we went off on that one yep that was a fun tangent oh yeah you made me think of another all right so
00:51:35
too late sean we moved on we gotta get we gotta get through the rest of the emails we got two more emails so uh so to make the short email long which we made it very long um she said quicksand still scares the shit out of me and i hope to never run into it amen thanks for the laughs kelly thanks cal thanks cal that yeah i mean she's right it still scares me too i do want to jump in it just to see what the hub hub is about but then i feel like i might not get out so anyway well that's the thing you don't jump well it's slow slow yeah it's when you freak out that it takes you more i'm gonna freak out yeah uh jody sent us an email uh hers is pretty short and sweet about she wants to be included in the uh in auditions for the intros um and she has a mystery drink for us at some point so yeah and i keep forgetting tonight would have been the perfect night to do and i forgot about that so sorry there are thank you jody and yes we'll uh connect soon about getting that mystery yeah we're gonna have to set up the auditions we were kind of thinking maybe people would like record stuff and send it in to us and then we could play it on here and talk about it but i think um it kind of makes sense it's hard for people to have good audio stuff at their house so we'll bring people in and do some auditions so we should say it came down to three so we got three that we're gonna do so we'll bring them in the studio have eric record them yeah and then we'll then we'll play them and kind of figure it out from there yeah yeah it's awesome so our last email is from adam adam says hey fellows i told you all in person but i want to say it again i
00:53:07
love the podcast uh it's not just the occasional mentions of me or the fact that you're you've only told pg versions of the few stories i'm involved in look we're really just looking out for you buddy uh he says you guys are kicking names and taking ass by the way that's a marvel movie reference guardians of the galaxy nebula says it and i say that all the time and his next question sorry hold on mantis says it i fucked up yeah mantis says it yeah uh he says which movie is it so you got it sorry um i mean maybe he's a good one for your next nerd podcast no shit right uh he says love the remote producer ben emails texts uh not trying to replace them but i do have a question do your kids ride their bikes all over or did did your kids ride their bikes all over when they were younger i definitely thought i could do cool bmx shit with my first bike and rode everywhere on my mountain bike when i was a bit older my kids definitely don't do any of that so you want he's you know it's a topic about yeah it's a great topic it is because it was so big when we were young i thought my bike was my life i just rode everywhere like yeah it was also how you could tell where your friends were it was like where's the pile of bikes sure you know what i mean everybody had it we would ride downtown we'd ride you know wherever i know yeah um like i remember my bike getting stolen when you're and it was like oh devastating when you know when it happened and i i don't know that's changed for sure because i mean you do
00:54:39
still see you see kids biking but it's not like it was not at all i mean well and we we're in an area that i wouldn't really let them anyway because in our neighborhood's fine but then once you get out on the busy road like they're going fucking you're not there 55 miles you're not going on there no but i still although i should say cooper i've dropped him off in town before with his bike and he meets up with his buds so a lot of the kids in sullen will jump on bikes and ride around and yeah i should say that because i dropped him off today for weightlifting and half the kids had bikes and scooters that they're all riding they all ride those motorized scooters too yeah so in town like at least in sullen like kids are riding their bikes everywhere but they stay obviously in Solon because otherwise it's all highway to get out of there. I guess you get on the path. Solon has a bike trail that goes all the way to Cedar Rapids. It's very nice.
00:55:29
I guess you can do that, but I doubt the kids are doing that part. They're usually not like, hey, we need to go ride 20 miles. They're like, I need to go to my friend's house. They're going from here to the gas station. Pick up Johnny to pick up Timmy to go pick up blah, blah, blah. Let's go see the girls. Let's go see the girls and then let's go get a snack. Yeah, exactly. yeah now it's harder to see i mean both of my kids they've my son got into it a lot actually later than i thought he would like you know the last couple years he's started biking way more than he ever did when he was young sure but yeah you just don't see it like that not like it was when we were kids therefore but i will say i feel like some of it's making a comeback or maybe like solon is the perfect size yeah where it's at least spread out enough that it's not like three blocks but it's not like the city of Cedar Rapids, you know? Yeah. So, yeah.
00:56:16
Yeah. I think, I definitely think where you're at can help with that a lot. You know, like for my kids, they, you know, I don't want them out on the main road because it's just people don't pay attention. I even get a little bit nervous myself sometimes. And I ride on the roads with cars all the time. So, yeah.

When I was a kid though, like I lived in a small town, like that was how I got around until I had a car. Yeah. um i think now part of the thing is parents take kids everywhere you know when you see you look at school drop off every day it's parents dropping kids off like nobody walks to school nobody like you know bikes there's some but it's it's pretty small right so yeah that's true like remember how many bike racks there used to be at schools it ain't like that now you know i will say it's all and there's more i think it is becoming i think and again i'm just i think it's just a size that works out really well for that where i would totally let my kids i would expect them to do it if we were in town yeah if you had a direct we're in town i'd be like yeah you can ride over to practice you can ride over like i'm not going to take you you know but now i'm like i we have to take you i can't yeah because cooper would be the one to be like i'll just ride i'm like no you're gonna get fucking run all day like yeah no so um yeah so my kids like when we lived by nolridge park they did a lot yeah because they could just take it and go over to knoll ridge and i didn't mind that you know there was an easy way to do that so but now where we're at it's a little tough yeah um but when i was a kid man i had a bmx bike and then i had a mountain bike and i rode a couple of 50 mile rides on my mountain bike yeah i can't believe that now like that how i why look at you now how many bikes do you own now eric i got a few yeah and minus one right yeah yeah exactly but um but i mean like i did that for scouts you know it was on just a simple
00:58:10
mountain bike and i would never use that bike now to ride that distance but yeah i loved it there you go yeah good question very good question question yeah um so oh yes and adam would also like to throw his hat in the ring for the intro a male opponent has entered the ring ding ding ding going down ladies he he's he's got some ideas that are both cool and sexy so funny and sexy so he's just talk to me goose he says keep killing it boys right on thanks appreciate really good good deal um that's all the emails yep okay yeah so uh we'll reach out to the three and we'll get them in here and record something and then we'll decide if we're going to pick one or maybe we'll leave it to a vote you guys well and for the three that volunteered we'll probably use it at other times too so just because yeah you know one will probably take and system being on there but you know we do one-off podcasts we do you know stuff that we do some different stuff that we might use it for so here's the funny part i think we can when we have three i think we can make all three work in different scenarios this was like eric brought this up right you and i have no idea what he wants them to say no like that's i just thought of that like we have like because you have an idea in your head that's made me feel well i know like obviously we'll all agree on something but like i just love that you're like just sitting over there like fucking dr evil like
00:59:43
i've got a plan well i mean we're like oh shit i mean the way i stumble over it i think we could get some consistency here and be all right yeah yeah yeah they're gonna be like and now we voice Mike and slippery show. Oh God. And then it'll be like, in the real dreamboat, Erik. His show's gonna be like, protector of children, leader of peace. Dude, earlier when he was like, I was doing this youth event, if I wanted to cut him off, I was gonna be like, yeah, well in his spare time, guys, he takes care of kids with ailments, and if he's not doing that, he's rescuing kittens. He should've been like, I was down with all his arcs drinking.
01:00:23
Boo! Fucking loser. Like, we gay. You're going to heaven. Fucking great. I mean, I, you know, counteract all these things plenty.
01:00:36
Hey, if you've taken anything from our podcast is that life is about balance, okay? And we're just trying to help you guys. So you learn from us. Are you a shitty person? Find a good friend and keep him with you. That's true. He'll help you stay balanced. That's true. One thing I did want to uh touch on because i almost forgot was last week yeah um brooke uh emailed in our friend brooke and she asked us about feel good movies and songs that we like and we talked about it but we didn't like really say any so um anyone have any so i will just say like feel good songs 80s music just in you know yeah paint it with a broad brush like that's like my yeah it just go to like comfort you think it's a nostalgia like we said earlier about something it's it's like it just makes you feel young again see i don't i fucking like it i know people like hate 80s music like i get it so it depends on what i i mean to be clear too i have everything on my playlist from rap to frank sinatra to what you know i just i just like the 80s i think and for something about it it's simple and kind of quirky and corny and kind of makes me laugh yeah but like my fucking daughter knows all the words too and i don't know why she knows isn't that cool sophie knows the words every song i swear and i'm like what do you like it's not like you grew up with like a she never had a radio but she's you like or whatever yeah but that's the thing but she'll even sing songs and i'm like how do you know this really yeah and granted we do listen to a lot of music yeah we
01:02:08
have a lot of music going all the time it's pretty standard in our house yeah but it's very impressive of like the amount of lyrics that she just knows. And I'll ask her. She's like, I don't even know. Yeah. Well, so you say that because so the 80s, there's I don't I was never really into like the hair bands. That's like probably the only thing from the 80s. And I don't mind it, but I like I don't love it. But everything else got older. Some of them. I kind of like some of them. Yeah. But like if you if you turn on like Huey Lewis and the news or something like fuck. Yeah. There we go. This is it. I'm like, you know, like yeah, like let me know yes so like that's the kind of stuff i like you know right you're down i'm gonna listen to you oh god i listen to him all the time in the car i when you said that about music i all three of us are the exact same way like we have our fucking libraries all over the place right yeah but i've noticed that with my son he you know he listens to old stuff like uh the fucking billy joel yeah billy joel billy yeah elton john so whatever there's all that we were at the pool the other day and i've noticed there's a lifeguard there and like she listens to very old music and it's like fuck this is a great playlist like she just played bangers for like three hours i don't know how old she is but she's under 20 i know that you know like that's crazy she's got a good future out of her yeah the reality is the the music now i mean there's some good new stuff but most of what they're listening to unless they like it's all recycled shit yeah it's a lot of it's copied of yeah good so mine would definitely be like feel good as motown like that's my number
01:03:41
one like probably my favorite song of all time or one of them is like bill withers use me like i just fucking love that song yes um did i ever tell you when we were in um we were down we were in new orleans no we were in memphis we went down there and we were we were stopping at a bar and we and that started playing. And I started singing and she's like, you don't fucking know the words. I'm like, yes, I do.
01:04:13
It's so got it. It is so cheesy to say, but it's like, yeah, no one sings with that much soul anymore. And it's like, God damn, you really feel it when you hear that. Keep on using me. Until you use me up. Yeah. All right. How about movies? Feel good movies? I don't know. I mean, there's lots of them, but I'm trying to think of one that sticks out. I have feel good movies in the fact that like if it's on, like I have one that I'm going to say and everyone's going to be like, how's that a feel good movie? But it can feel good to you. It feels good to me. And it's fucking bad boys too. I don't know what it is about that goddamn movie.
01:04:45
Like it's that specific one. Like the whole scene where he fucking gets dosed on accident. Then he walks out. He's like, nice fucking eyes, big fucking fish. Like just everything that movie. Remember your pressure. Yeah. That's very fun. Shui. Like that movie. Just call my wife. and tell her I'm on the way. Micah got an erection. I think of like sports movies. Yeah. Field of Dreams, Miracle. Remember the Titans. Remember those being feel-good ones. That's funny because I have on my list to talk about one of these days, like our favorite sports movie. Oh, yeah. For sure. I agree, though. But I was going to say, I just remember this.
01:05:26
