Music Music Music Music Music Music Music Music Music Grab my wallet. Which wallet? The one that says Badass motherfucker on it! We were talking Pulp Fiction, so that's what you get. and we'll get into why we were talking about Pulp Fiction but besides the point but we're back for another one we're back again after a little break I mean not long you guys didn't notice no no we would never do that we took care of it we made sure we had our ducks in a row as they say but hey welcome back this is the We're Still Cool Right podcast for those of you who join us every week welcome back for the new people thanks for joining us thank you um my name is sean i'm mike and i'm eric and yeah the deep sultry voice smooth like butter yeah so what we like to do is kick off with a drink yep and i really want to drink this i do too and mike's got a good one for us mike take us through this uh yeah cocktail it's a beautiful little cocktail uh kara helped me find this one and it seemed fitting for the time of year so this is called a pumpkin apple shandy so uh for ours it's basically like six ounces of a pumpkin beer, five to six ounces of an apple cider, and then a shot and a half of whiskey, ounce and a half of whiskey.

And then, of course, I would never forget the garnish, because only assholes do that. So I got a cinnamon stick in there for everybody, because you're welcome. For those of you who knew, that was a jab at me. Fucker. By the way, cinnamon sticks are fucking expensive. That's why some of us skipped the goddamn garnish. It's like, God, $10 for fucking six cinnamon sticks? Jesus. We know how pissed off I get about what things cost. You think I'm buying cinnamon sticks? Yeah, you're mine. Dude, I was in Hybeian. I was about to turn into an old lady. She's like, I can't believe the price of spices anymore. Jesus Christ.

But yeah, mix it all together. We used Confluence Basic Batch Pumpkin Beer, and then we used Cody Road Whiskey. But yeah, try it out. We're about to, and cheers, everybody at home. Cheers, buddy. Yeah. Cheers. Get you some basic juice.

Is that what we're calling it? Basic juice? I think that's a way better name. God, that's good. Ooh. I will say, I I've had more apple cider this season than I ever have only because we figured out how to put it in boost. In boost, yeah. I haven't had apple cider. That's a really good point. I don't know how long, but I don't know the last time I had apple cider. No, I don't either. I don't ever drink it. And I think we're on like our third or fourth bottle at home that we've just had. Because if you remember a few weeks ago, I did the one, the mule. Yeah. Right? Yeah, that's what started. This weekend, we put a little whiskey in it.

Dressed in the cider? Fucking better. Oh, I bet. better with that and then did you heat it up ginger beer well just ginger ale no no heat it up no it was just my son went to the pumpkin patch recently my kids and like got some really good i can't remember the orchard but anyway pumpkin cider and wilson's no that's what i thought it wasn't um but he warms it up when he drinks it and i'm like i had a little sip i was like god damn oh yeah because i took some this weekend he wasn't very happy with it yeah i know he was like are you drinking my apple cider i was like no i forgot about that i forgot about that i was like okay No, I mean, it's the really good stuff.

I'm like, fuck, I'll get you some more cider, man. Yeah, but then he was like, you can't. Yeah, you can't. And you're like, yeah, where is it? And he said it. He's like, oh, you're right. I can't get that. He's fine. He's fine. Yeah. Yeah. So I found this stuff. Yeah, Wilson's has it, but goddamn, it's good. So I might just. I guess I do feel bad because he doesn't mix it with booze like I do. So I should let him have the trash stuff. It's fine. Yeah. We went not cheap today. This isn't. By the way, finding it was hard. I either had to buy a $10 gallon thing of it at Hy-Vee, or the only one they had in small ones was cherry apple cider.

But I found one left hiding in the back. I fucking snicked that bitch. The thing everybody's buying right now. I was going to say, Halloween is a coming. Well, if you don't know how big of a hit we are, people are listening. So cider is flying off the shelves from our drinks that we've been sharing. That, whiskey, popcorn. Popcorn. so anybody wanting to sponsor us popcorn company is learning real well yeah Iowa Popcorn Company again hooked us up we already had one bag of this the Buffalo Breath if you like buffalo it's fucking delicious so again check them out in Marion Iowa Popcorn Company they've been there since 1990 oh I dropped the middle finger that's something I've never said before but yeah go check them out like I said the one we had the beer cheese one is phenomenal the traditional I don't know what's the word for the one that's all three kinds mixed. Isn't there like a name?

There's like a Chicago mixer. Oh, is that what it is? There's a couple different names for it. I just can't remember. That shit's good, too. It's a mix. That was good. But they do new flavors like every couple weeks, so there's always something new to try. So yeah, hop in there, see our friends at Iowa Popcorn Company. And the Buffalo flavor is surprising better on popcorn than I would have thought. I'm a big fan of Buffalo, but hey. Yeah. They know what they're doing. Give them a shout. Give them a chance. It's good. Let's get into it, boys. I'm going to start with the man behind the mic Because he fucking just straight up left us for a while the fucking reason why we had to take a little break I can skip town just hopped on the jet plane and left do you think anybody noticed that last week was a second episode?

Oh, I think they might have had an idea. They got a little little tipsy out on that one Has their own opinion about who the best dad is And I know they do for the amount of people that came up to me going That well actually I didn't really get any complaints about Dan. No I had definitely people going, are you kidding me with this over that? Oh, I know. That's why it's fun, though. Do your own. It is fun to do it. One day, maybe we'll be able to do a live one or something where we have comments rolling in because it would be very funny to hear some of those people. The Ned Stark one versus fuck, I can't remember. Tony Soprano or something like that.

That was good because that's shit you don't think about. Yeah, those are kind of off the wall. Those were the wild cards anyways because they weren't really like a sitcom. We just threw in some dads out there. It was fun though. Yeah, it was a good bracket you put together. It was definitely a good one, but you fill us in on You Global Traveler. Yeah. Yeah, so I just got back this past Friday, Thursday, Friday, from Portugal. What the fuck is a Portugal? What the fuck is a Portugal? Well, as we were planning this vacation... The fuck's a truck put down?

The funny shit is when we were planning this vacation, uh, Aaron started telling our friends, Hey, we're going on vacation. We're going to Puerto Rico. That's not the same at all. She knew it started with a P she's just, she, so really how this started was Aaron wanted to leave the country. She hasn't done it very many times. Yeah. And she had her heart set on Puerto Rico and we, uh, we, uh, we talked to our friends, Jeff and Teresa and they, they were like, well, and they, they're pretty well traveled. They've done, they've done a bunch of stuff and they're like we haven't been to Portugal so we were like sounds good let's do it well I didn't really have anything in mind in particular to go but so you guys didn't like did you guys plan a bunch of things to do or did you kind of just wing it yeah so with with Jeff and Teresa um it's funny because Jeff and Aaron are very much similar personalities and Teresa and I are similar personalities in the sense that Teresa and I planned everything and Aaron just said yes to everything I thought you were gonna say Jeff Plants of us me like no fucking way like I can't they very much were like you guys are doing a great job So you've seen those videos though where they're like ones the player one I just showed up when it was like where we go. That's me. Yeah, she does everything. I just fucking show up like oh We're blissfully Ignorant to what like all the work that went in and I'm just like Man, we should go on vacation more often Ashley, right?

Well, didn't Erik, didn't you say because there's always the person who like packs a week in advance and then the person that packs the night before they have and you definitely are the one that does it ahead did aaron wait till the last minute yeah she did she did better than typical because i think she was a little concerned i restricted her total over a size like luggage size because yeah we had a limit oh yeah well going to when you're talking like a week and a half that's tough that's like a different country like it's not the same i don't know getting clothes isn't the same no and you like i mean you're anywhere in you know the u.s like there's a mall around that you're going to be able to just pick something else up like yeah and familiar with what it is but there was a lot more stuff there than I would have anticipated and options but like we weren't looking to pick up and we already had full suitcases but because it's not super touristy there is it I mean I know people visit more than is it yeah so there's um I don't know shit well it just depends on who you ask let me take this one yeah there's areas there that are super touristy I will say Lisbon is very touristy okay for sure um lisbon and porto were probably the most touristy areas we went to okay but um lisbon was like it was it was too touristy for my takes oh like there were some neat things that we saw and we were glad we did the things that we did but we probably would have shortened our time in lisbon and done more like take shifted a day somewhere else you know what i mean but um just because it just felt too much like what you already used to like it just wasn't enough it's It's more of like just the people around and things didn't feel as authentic.

They're shoving merch in your face. I'm like, I want, like, I like, you know, a little bit of the touristy stuff. I want to see the things that I wouldn't know how to see and all that stuff. But, like, then I want to dive into the culture and, like, experience things. What was your favorite Portugal dish? Oh. Was it a Royale with cheese? I did have a Royale with cheese. Okay, so full disclosure. in Porto there's a McDonald's it's called the Imperial McDonald's and this thing literally has like this giant Soviet looking eagle on the front of it and like inside there's stained glass windows and it is cool as shit the church of McDonald's we sent so Audrey's boyfriend's dad works for McDonald's corporate and we sent him a picture like you guys gotta step up your game right we went to this because it is kind of a touristy thing to go check out and see.

And I saw they had a Royale with cheese and I could get a beer. So I ordered a Royale with cheese and a beer just You had to do it. Good God. And I got to ask this because Royale is a quarter pounder, right? Quarter pounder with cheese because that's why we started talking about before the pod on. That's why we got on the Pulp Fiction thing. But they sell beer just right there. And is the drinking age 18 there? Yeah. Okay. That's what I figured. So that makes sense that McDonald's i will say but i don't think that was your favorite dish no no no i had to ask like sorry before we move on from the down thing it did the burger taste better than here because i hear the ones other overseas are like just so much better because there's no additives and every piece of food that i ate there for the most part there were a couple that were maybe a little too touristy every everything i had was better yeah just everything tasted cleaner more yep natural and you look at like dude i you'd order a coke so like they didn't have a lot of pop but you could get a coke or a coke zero just about anywhere if you look at the coke and you look at the ingredients it's water sugar carbonated water like that's it like what there's four ingredients add caramel coloring i think maybe sure did it taste good or no oh yeah it's delicious tastes like coke more like a mexican coke so i tasted better yeah because it's real sugar i don't think those are better give me the phosphate give me the one that's going to kill me the thing I didn't

I kind of went into it thinking I'm going to find some breweries some different things beer's not as huge there I mean there's a presence and there were some breweries I will say most places you went if you ordered a beer they had one or two choices the number one choice is the national beer and it's called superbach i was gonna say that looked cool i saw i saw you drinking and basically you picked which size you want you want the little one the medium size one or the big ass one like so everyone in their mind like you just see superbach everywhere like so people are drinking literally if you'd say if i had beer on the menu they probably had superbach okay um there were different types of superbach like superbach had a stout oh okay it's more like a bach kind of um they're different kinds but then there's one other brand was like sagress i think is how you say i'm probably mispronouncing it yeah that was the one i had at mcdonald's they just that was what they had they're fancy so no super bach there all right okay that's awesome wine was super prevalent portugal's a huge wine producer okay so those that don't know eric is famous for a shower chug with his friends.

About once a week. You don't. Probably pretty consistent once a week. We get a shower chug of you never know what Erik was doing and decided that he had to set out a shower chug. By the way, if you've never had a beer in the shower, you're really missing out. Even if you don't want to chug it. Just sip on a beer in the shower. Then you step out to piss. But Erik sent us a wine chug. He did. Yeah. I'm not a wine drinker, but I, you know, I have not seen a wine, a wine shower drink. So we were literally, so that night, that shower, or I get, was it night? I don't even know. The, the days blurred together out there.

And our time difference, it's six hours time difference. So sometimes when you guys were just waking up, I was like, that was weird. We're texting you at like six and you're like, yeah, it's almost midnight. I'm like, fuck. I'm like, I knew it was off, but I know it's six hours. Cause we were talking about, we were talking about game. yeah the hawk egg oh that's right yeah that's right you're trying to find it i was trying to watch it did you find it anywhere no i literally i i took and put a vpn on my phone and then just to be able to watch it that's hilarious but you got like a quarter then fell asleep because you're like i gotta go to bed it was almost one o'clock i was like i'm going to sleep yeah true but um the that wine chug was in wine country we were we were actually staying at a winery which is like a huge resort and it was oh wow that's cool nice so you drank plenty of wine i'm just i wish i liked wine more i will i've just heard when you're there though like the wine is like everybody like it just just i will say i learned a lot about wine because we went and did like a wine tour at a winery yeah really neat experience and i could tell you even more than i knew before i didn't know a ton about it before but i know enough now that like that was really So when is the wine cellar being built? Because if you don't know Erik, he likes the fucking collection It was beer, and now we're on the whiskey, and every time Ryan's got a new fucking bottle. He's a great guy to be friends with.

He's always got this new stuff going on. We're not diving in. Erin would kill me if I dove one of those people. She already has enough wine for the both of us. I was gonna say, yeah. Well the key is to get her going on it, alright? Now we're really gonna do this here. That's awesome. That's funny. So what was your favorite thing you did over there? um so i would say my favorite thing that i saw was there was a we went out to the ocean just to like see the views on the like the cliffs are huge yeah dude the pictures were sweet yeah right there we went in and we didn't even know this was there when we were just going to like see the ocean it was really picturesque oh yeah we went down to this like little place where you could go down to the beach and there was a natural pool like i think they've reinforced it to like keep it maintained but essentially the ocean fills this pool.

Yeah, I forgot you sent us a picture of that. That looked fucking awesome. So like the waves would come up and hit and just go huge into the air, into the pool. People would stand on the edge of the pool and get knocked over by the waves. And that was the coolest thing So did you ever get in this pool Because like when I heard you This is my biggest regret I didn have my trunks over a mile away in the car I almost walked back up and got them but I like fuck Yeah. I'm surprised you did. That's my biggest regret. Because you know me and getting in pools. I was going to say, getting in the water in general, yeah.

But I got into an infinity pool at the winery, so that was cool. Oh, dope. It was cold as shit, but, you know. Let's not stoppin' you. Still enjoyed it. There was a super cool picture of Aaron on like a cliff or something that I saw. I'm like, that was a super cool photo. Yeah, we got some good pictures. Yeah. Yeah, it was cool. So you just wanted to say, what was your favorite thing you ate? Favorite thing I ate?

Platypus. So as far as like native dishes, I had a couple that I liked. But like my favorite thing was they have this thing called a pastel de nada. um they're everywhere and don't get the super touristy ones like look up reviews and find a good one okay but essentially it's like a custard tart and so it's like usually about this big and there's custard in the middle i thought it sounded like pesto so i was expecting like pasta pastel is like oh is like a pastry pastry all right yeah um that was probably my favorite overall thing we had i wouldn't say it was like native portuguese dish but there was a breakfast restaurant we went to and all the food was just phenomenal there yeah that was my favorite meal but how was the like not speaking the language like was it a problem or no so like in the bigger cities and on the on the edges and stuff any of the touristy areas there's plenty of people like everybody spoke english oh okay when you get out into some of the more remote areas um you can run into occasionally people don't we went to this little like roadside cafe just to get some caffeine and take a break from driving yeah and they didn't speak any english at all did you guys or at least i mean it was so minor that we wouldn't have been able to yeah it wasn't a conversation it was more of just uh this is what we're looking for using hand signals and stuff the thing for me jack i took two years of spanish in high school and i'm not saying that that's like i thought it was portuguese it is portuguese oh but portuguese and spanish they're close yeah that's like the same

thing i know there's huge differences in some of the words but like i i know enough i went to brazil for work so i kind of picked up some of the differences it's one of those things where i can do well with context i can't just sit there and speak oh yeah yeah but like i can i know how to say i want a coffee with milk yeah you know i want you know like a red bull's a red bull there's no different name for that you know like no there's like a coke like i mean there's certain things that it doesn't matter but like being able to say your greetings and goodbyes yeah thank you some of that stuff is the key so like as long as you can do some of that most people will be pretty so were you guys able to muddle through and get some caffeine like were you guys able to go on the same page i couldn't i can get there like especially ordering coffees i i did that a couple of times for aaron from people that didn't speak any english and it worked just don't they make headphones now that auto translate that's what i figured he would add i do i have the airpods i I didn't use them. Really? Yeah. Have you have you look dumb walking around with airpods and just trying to Oh, everybody does things like but I agree. I don't do it either But I just wonder how well they work like is it that clean like where it's I did want to try it I just didn't yeah, I want to know yeah, and it feels like the golden time you had to try it Really? Can't really get much better than that just walk up tango el gato I was going to say, I don't know a lot of Spanish, but I know some bad shit.

There are some, I didn't, I have a friend when I went to Brazil that told me that there are some words in Portuguese that if you say, like, if you're speaking Spanish, they might take offense. I thought I heard that. There are certain things that are not good to say. That's, because, you know, fuck it, I would say it out of trying my hardest to be like, like, know the length, you know, like, really try to communicate. And I'd have, you know, someone to go fuck themselves. they'd be like fuck this gringo why am i in jail yeah yeah but most of the differences are like the way that you say it or the inflection yeah inflection otherwise it's similar don't put the fastest on the wrong syllable exactly there is cerveza even there it's cerveja like it's like more of a j sound really which i know that because like that's why people like you'll see obviously being a big mma fan there's tons of brazilian champs and so but like you'll go to comment section people were trying J A J A J A that's like them saying haha so you're like oh so jaja jaja jaja I just figured out my new way that I'm gonna say yeah Jesus Christ of latter-day Saints something an awesome fucking time though I'm not jealous at all we had a great time and I brought you guys some gifts back so what I mean really I was excited for you to get through this stories we can try the booths like so the first thing i got for you i'm gonna i'm gonna get up and pour these so i'm gonna talk real quick and then we should we'll get a picture of it and post it

because i've never seen these before so yeah and we didn't want to make these the drink of the week because you know you can't really get them here yeah yeah so and it's cider season so like we talked earlier hey oh take advantage of getting your cider yep so these um are meant to be they can be like made into cocktails um at least one of them the the red one that i'm gonna give you second is called ginja and a lot of times over there you would see people like having it like an after dinner drink just in a little glass just like a sipper that's what i was thinking is it like a uh god damn it what do they call them like like for net and uh a digestive is it like one of those yeah okay um or it's more just like a dessert categorized both ways okay there so but a lot of people there that were native would have it like as an after dinner drink so i watched them do it okay the one that i had there was not i will say in my opinion the best quality i'm interested to try this one because this is a one of the highly rated brands and i got it at the airport so i was gonna say did you get that at like a duty free or something yeah i got both of these duty free on the way out it's so funny like that's the thing like duty like has things you can only get there yeah which is crazy to me like whoever gets the weller if they want to send it to us Heyo.

We like that and Pappy. So send us whatever you want. That was delicious. Thanks, buddy. You did a good job. I know. You know what really made it better? It's a waste of that fucking cinnamon stick. No, fuck you. The cinnamon stick made it. Yeah, now it's just a stick. You should just chew on it. You can just make another drink with it. Start picking my teeth. You can, but yeah, I can go make you another one. Okay, so the other liquor I have here is called Birau, I think. Okay. I have not tried this, so I'm trying it with you guys. Okay. Oh, yay. What I would highly recommend with this is take a sip, taste it, and then if you don't like it, just shoot it.

Yeah. Otherwise, sit there and sip on it. So both of these, I would say that. I was going to say, I think I only saw the one bottle, but they're not like super high ABV. No, they're not like a vodka level or anything like that. Yeah. I think one of them is like 22, one's 18. So we should probably drink beer while we drink this, so that way, no, we don't lose a bottle. Well, it's only a small pour of it. Yeah, I'm just gonna give you guys a little bit. But yes, let's do that too. Keep talking. I'm gonna get up and pour you some drinks here.

I was gonna put a fucking straw on it and just funnel the whole thing and just send it. No shit. You got no fucking... You got nothing to add to that one, huh? We're gonna do this one first. Here's the scary part. Which one is this one? Erik was setting these on the table and he opened it and smelled one. He goes, interesting. Oh, fuck. He didn't say, what a lovely tea party. I don't think you thought I was going to catch him but the look of his face. Are we allowed to smell it?

Here, pass me the bottle. Interesting. So I'll be honest. This one reminds me of like a Bernad. That's exactly what I was going to say. Or like Sambuca, kind of.

Yeah, it smells like Sambuca. But I haven't tried it. I don't know how to pronounce it, but for your everyday dreams. Yeah, I literally don't know how to say that. Okay, so you were supposed to... Just try a little sip first. Uh-oh.

Oh, okay, I was really scared by your face. That's fucking good. It tastes way better than it smells. Yeah. Holy fuck. Why does it smell like ass? It's really good. Because it does. It smells terrible. It has a... Or it smells like Fournette or something like that. It has a slight black licorice taste, but it's so subtle. And I hate black licorice. But it's got the black licorice smell, just not the taste. Hardcore, yeah. And I fucking hate black licorice. That's good. Talk about an after-dinner drink. Like, I would always have that. Man, I wish you would have bought bigger bottles. It probably only came in that size.

Well, also, his luggage was only so big. That's why I did do this. His package is huge, but his luggage is a little smaller. That's what I tell Ashley. They all come in this size. Yeah. No, you don't want the big ones. Those hurt. I don't worry. What'd you say?

So I saw you playing without this really so this is a cherry one. What's this one? Right here pass through the bottle. Oh, cuz you get to finish yours This is a Marie Marie Quinn Haas that's the brand oh it's ginger liqueur day dude i'm sorry but we can let's just call it ginger it's built for us sean ginger i was gonna say and there is cherries in the bottom of the thing no like this looks delicious it smells way better which watch it not taste as good and it's completely 180 try this for your lovely pleasure drinking pleasure really also it's a very like gorgeous bottle very pretty label everything say well let me put the cork on it we'll get some pictures of it and post these but hey thank you buddy for bringing these back that's really good better than the first one yeah yeah so that just tastes like cherries like literally like oh my god the one that i had there i just ordered it after dinner i had no idea the brand i ordered it and we all all four of us had one everybody was like that's fucking cough syrup and it's disgusting so we just like shot him real quick that was a different kind yeah so i assume the other one was maybe a cheap or bad one sure well and apparently like me i don't this is something that gets better with age i don't this says 2023 on it so it's not like this was just made yeah i just looked and this was like

one of the top three it's got the ingredients so ginger whatever the hell that is i don't know it's fermented it's fermented cherries basically that's what they make a cherry liqueur so i do got to say while we're talking about this if you haven't had an after dinner drink oh god it's a game changer yeah as we're coming up to the holidays you know and you if you're like me you like to booze around the family you know then you eat the big meal and then you're tired yep you need to get yourself a little after dinner drink yep it just it recourse corrects you're good to go so we're right back to it yeah we keep drinking all day long for i i'd never believed in that well actually i guess i always had my dad does that a little i never did it was like i'd be like i don't know if i want to eat yet because you get it's like we just have to have an after dinner drink yeah i've and i've never done that before like that that's new within the last few years what was and we talked about this on an earlier podcast but when we all went to chicago for teddy swims we went to that yeah the pizza place i can't remember the name of it where we had the awesome burrata awesome but they had a whole menu of after dinner drinks and we all kind of tried different ones they're fucking delicious fucking delicious but it is just a little bit little nip so if you ever think about you're out having a good time being sitting here to get tired you're not really in the night but you're tired a little after dinner skip dessert and just get you a little dessert back in the game baby yeah a lot of people do like i mean a diet any sort of digestive but you can also do like a coffee with a little bit of liquor in it some of those were that yeah like minty ones you know if you have any of the minty stuff that works out too so i'm not a fan of fernet but some people love it and it's not always about matt and clint the alcohol content

it's more about just getting your juices flowing as far as getting back in the game yeah yeah getting the stomach primed that's awesome you don't want to drink a beer so did you see anything crazy over there like like anything that like you know kind of freaked you out or blew your mind or was super awesome. You didn't see two hobos blowing each other in an alley or something? Honestly, there's way less of those type of things. The people watching... The only people watching things that were interesting was more in the airports.

Shaun's on one tonight. I'm only laughing because he's all put together. He goes to the right places. You and I would be on this back. You wouldn't fucking believe what we just saw. Two hobos spitting on each other's shit. Sorry. before we even left for the trip we're at the airport in Chicago we're at O'Hare and we're just sitting there having some cocktails waiting for a flight, killing some time and it's this little bar that has some food for whatever reason, I've never seen this before, I've seen it in like bigger fancier restaurants behind glass but like at this little bar restaurant in the airport they had two of their dishes sitting out by the front entrance so you could see what they made I guess oh god well this guy just kept coming up and just taking food off of it and it had been sitting there since 11 a.m they said we're like five o'clock at night but this guy just like eating nachos off of that talking on the phone talking on the phone he was on the phone the whole time and he'd just walk up and take a nacho and chew it and can i ask did he seem like a homeless person in the airport in the airport security like he was security he just probably didn't know i was saying this was like right on the outside or something i think it was a cultural or a yeah like language barrier issue but it was like that can't be good like they're nachos they're not he's like i don't say no to free uh or you know he's got the stomach built for it we were just some weak american like we are laughing our asses off god and then on in the airport again on the way home uh this guy so

our security situation was really weird like security over there is way different than here um like airport security like yeah we go through like dude i swear to god even even coming back into chicago things are so much easier literally you go up to a little tablet that like does facial recognition and you're done it's got to be i thought there's nothing else my electronic password like when i came back into the us they didn't even want to see my passport wow really just because they already have my so we finally lax back up after fucking how long's it been or do we just think just because his name is eric allen and it was everything dude it was everyone the only people that had to talk to somebody were people that did not have electronic passports okay wow like there's a chip in your passport and they read it i don't know whatever i was to say i'm not very cultured i've i've been out of the country once but it was on a cruise so i didn't have to have a passport but do you have a passport no but next year we're going and i need to get my passport right it's care is getting so mad at me she's like you need to get your passport no the online process is so easy dude i'll show you how to do it okay because i was like i'll do it in june she goes can you stop stressing me out and just do it i'm like no i'm i just i'm not going to wait that long i just like mess have you had one though but no oh it might be so i can't do the election okay that's what i was wondering you probably should do it i'll do it in june i gotta look at mine's I probably gonna have to up mine before we go.

I was gonna say, yeah. I mean, we've got a year, but still. Still. Like, yeah. You never know. It could take forever. So. Aaron and I are good to go now Yeah you good for how long now I mean how long Ten years Is that long Oh I thought it was eight background check for me it takes a while so you know you don know where i been lou so that a fight club quote so in there you know my aliases we in the airport and they like we go through all the security stuff and we're at the gate but then they want to like check your documents at the gate this is in portugal as before we leave they want to check your documents and so like we do all that and then we're in this thing and it just felt like it started to feel like a cattle car because it was like this closed in area everybody's piling in there's no more seats everybody's just standing room only i am getting claustrophobic just explaining the story i'm starting to sweat i'm gonna need a we should talk about old ranch again you're gonna step in some coagulated ranch like oh boys this thing is going the wrong direction oh so I've that just triggered so on Saturday or I'm almost done okay I was gonna go ahead because you know what I'm gonna say so this guy this guy comes through and he's standing there but he is visibly drunk like can't stand up straight at all in the airport he's by himself he's already been through this security check did you give him a card and hard um he he bumps into a police officer that's doing the security checks like he keeps just like

standing there and like just wobbling into him the guy goes like i'm gonna remove you like he he like i thought i thought shit was going down i thought he was gonna get kicked out and not be able to go on the plane yeah he eventually before we got on the way yeah this is before we got on the plane they'll let you on the plane that drunk there it didn't seem like that mattered that's great what do you want to do you want to be responsible for him no but as a cop i'd arrest him or throw him in the drunk because like i don't want to send him on for the stewardesses and to have to deal with him yeah but if you're like an internet night it's just you're like you just made a situation worse i don't know it depends on how the guy would be drunk i thought he wasn't a belligerent i mean unless he was being a dick then that's what that's what that's why i was starting getting confrontational with the cop which is why it escalated okay because he's like what what did i do yes sean stopped defending him oh the guy was out of line but he needed to just go find the chair and sit down that's what he needed no coffee it's fine just grab a seat he was a lot less wobbly after the eight hour flight i bet i bet he landed with feeling awesome i bet his head hurts i guarantee you they didn't give him very much wine on the flight oh yeah god so does it hey if you're listening buddy hope you made it okay well welcome back because we missed you yeah we did miss you it was weird having you gone that long like we kept texting you and it was like oh you're gone oh you're gone yeah because you were how many days you guys were gone for a week and a half uh we were gone a total of nine days i think

with travel okay don't ever do that again perfect okay yeah we had all kinds of great ideas nobody to write them down and keep us on track so i know we do some of our best work when he's not around to help us out it's so funny because like to anyone who doesn't know eric and like let's say someone didn't know eric at all and listen to the podcast they'd be like oh this guy like controls these guys he's like so like doesn't doesn't act crazy anyone that knows eric is like oh no he's a a fucking psychopath. Those three together are ridiculous. He just holds us together for the podcast. He just puts it together for us to make sure. I click all the buttons back here.

Hey, you do really damn good at that, buddy. Right, no kidding. Back stateside, let's talk about this weekend. Hold on. I got to say it only because today is my beautiful bride's birthday. Yes, it is. Happy birthday, Ashley. Happy birthday, Smash. Love you, honey. You're the best. so this weekend we had the party so it was also we did and this is all thanks to our epic Shaun who is celebrated in bronze as a statue because he has the best ideas ever and he's willing to suck off Osama bin Laden but I'm glad we came back to that what the fuck is my statue no but like two podcasts ago or whatever we talked about deviled eggs that's what started all this deviled fucking eggs it blew Shaun's mind because one had bacon in it and you know what we kind of ran with it and our friend group said hey let's have a fucking deviled egg party and we had one and we had one and everyone came and it was a fucking hell it was a bigger turnout than I expected so it's all funny because they listened to the podcast and like Shaun's never had any of our fancy deviled eggs which turned into when can we get together and have this party to hey Ashley's birthday is coming up and Logan's birthday is coming up can we do it for just uh get together for that your son always likes it when we hang out together like he kind of misses us all being around like you know which is kind of cool like he didn't seem as crazy about the deviled eggs as i thought he was no no yeah so my son turned 18 so we kind of like you know it

wasn't really his birthday party like he had his own birthday things and you know so did ashley but like this was just kind of like a hey their birthdays are there let's have like a little mutual birthday party yeah i believe we called it the wolf pack fart fiesta 2025. it became that when But all of a sudden, it was like, let's do the eggs. And it was like, oh, it's going to stink. It's fart fest. And it did. It stink. Like, I didn't mind. I love deviled eggs. And I don't mind the smell. But like, my kids walked in when like, everyone was there. And they're like, Jesus Christ. It smelled like eggs in that house.

I mean, there was probably, what, 10 or 11 different kinds of deviled eggs. I mean, people killed it. Everyone did a different one. Fucking Sunday was not a great day for, you know. Nope. It smelled bad. That stomach was torn up. And we may have. I smelled those eggs for a couple days. I did not eat any eggs on Sunday. No. I haven't eaten an egg yet. I was like, I'm having toast for breakfast. Yeah. No. But the eggs were fucking amazing. They were delicious. I'm trying to remember all the kinds. I took a little video. I should look it up. But like, yeah, we had like normal. So we will share those out there because this is a part of it.

Because then we did another video too, but we still talk about it. Yeah. We got a couple people have videos. I know Ashley took one of every one of them on there. Because then everybody put the, or made a, or did you just make those? we've made little signs with the names of them did you do that carrot did it yeah i had a girl care yeah so then we could try them all yeah and a couple people were smart because they knew there was too many eggs we're like we need something other than eggs yeah kelly my sister brought at least like some southwest egg rolls yeah and jody brought like some meatball sandwiches and then like jen brought like like fancy baked beans with all like made some little cheese dip yep she made a dip dip so i'm bummed i need to try the southwest egg rolls because i was like i love there's two left and you can't have them because I fucking I'm eating them for lunch tomorrow.

I was so full from all the eggs. I was like, I can't. Bring us a little Southwest egg rolls. Well, not only that, her Southwest egg rolls are amazing but she made like a peach salsa with some sour cream in it. God damn, that was good. But the eggs were unbelievable. We did a shot. Whose idea was this? It was yours, wasn't it? Fucking asshole. This was a bad idea. It was such a bad idea. I didn't want to do it. I'm really glad I didn't throw up because that would have been the worst throw up ever. It wasn't supposed to go the way it went. Okay, so first of all, we're going to post that video. Yeah.

We'll have to do it after the podcast drops, by the way. Yes, because that'll come out like Thursday. You'll see the video, and I had to run off out of screen because of something, and I was like throwing up in my mouth almost. I didn't get to see your reaction until I saw the video. Erik's fucking reaction when he like swallows, I died for like 15 minutes because I was like, he about came out of his skin. it was not good because you guys really ones that were like you like chased your shot with the rest of us like ate that you know had it and then took a shot no i had it in my mouth at the same time the egg was in there i didn't swallow that's what i'm saying oh so bad you guys are terrible like both of you guys did that julie's next to me and julie's like why are they done already i'm like because they're not eating the egg we just thought that was what we were supposed to do it wasn't like a great combo that we were doing this was this was a survival of the finish shot i don't know how to break it to you but no matter how you did that it wasn't a good idea i didn't go hey here's a great idea i kind of went who wants to do a shot and we better have red egg with it and everyone's like okay so bad everyone wants to be famous and jump on our videos so if anyone at home feels like doing uh it was a pick a deviled egg of your choice start chewing on it and then put a shot of menthol mcgillicuddy and tell me how toothpaste and fucking egg takes oh it's bad yeah do your best not to throw up yeah so bad it was so bad but it's also like mass chaos because while we're shooting the video other people are coming out trying to talk to you

oh my god yeah i get rushed off the deck because something happened and i'm like i have to go so i'm like throwing up going out of lens and it it was a good time but overall though it was awesome I highly recommend doing a doubled egg party. It's a good time. If you like doubled eggs. If you like doubled eggs, it was fucking awesome. If you like doubled eggs, just leave the menthol McGillicuddy's at home. I fucking love menthol McGillicuddy's. I love it. That's your fault. That is my fault. That was mine. Then we tried the other shot. That was also your idea. That was definitely my idea. And it wasn't bad.

It didn't have the same effect. Why don't you tell me, do you want me to say what your great idea was? I feel like my reaction to that was the same as my reaction to this thing. Like, I was like, this is going to be a terrible idea. Dude, I was expecting the worst. So that one was 100% like kind of one of those, like a Fernet, like take it like a champ kind of a deal. So we had had menthol McGillicuddy's and Shaun was like, you know what we should do? He's like, remember that, you know, by the way, I remember the names of it. I said we should name it childhood trauma. And then you had a different name for it.

Late for school. Late for school. Yeah. And it was because we talked about McGillicuddy's that we did were like, it tastes like toothpaste. Yeah. yeah and so then i'm like yeah we need some orange juice because who remembers brushing your teeth you're running late you know you think about it you drink orange juice and it's like the worst flavor ever yeah so i was like all right let's do this because so we said the kids power through yeah so then yeah we said our daughter's a story who can drive by the way and they they went and got us a bottle of oj to try this yeah and we poured it up and i'm like i was more scared for that than i was for the egg thing you know yeah and then we did it we one after the other and we did the it was full you take the miguel cutties first so you have like that toothpaste and then you have to drink the orange juice fine i mean it's not good but it wasn't it was like i was expecting to be like that horrible taste and it just i think what it was though is like toothpaste coats your teeth and stuff like that like the mental miguel case just goes right down your throat and like kind of goes away so there's a little bit of mint but not like toothpaste. Also, when you do it, you're a kid and you're not really, you know, you'd think the orange juice is going to taste like orange juice.

Brush your teeth and take a shot of orange juice and you're going to feel the same way. But I'm saying when you're a kid you don't think it's going to taste like, because you think it's going to taste like orange juice that you're having. Until you have it. We went in full well knowing this isn't going to be good. And it wasn't great. It just wasn't as bad as I remembered. But there was good news from Saturday. So that was all great. And then by the halfway through the second quarter we basically could turn the Hawkeye game off. we didn't we did i mean we did for a bit we put it on a different screen we well we went to watch the ufc fight that ended i don't even want to get into that fucking bullshit but so we were at mike's and it's great because we're we're so dedicated to this that we always have like multiple tvs going of different things you know yeah into the whole deal yeah we had the iowa game on then the iowa state game on yeah and then then i was crushing them so the ufc fight was on so it's like let's get that last because they were in abu dhabi so they weren't at normal time yeah right so we're And then I got over and stupid.

First round. Disqualification. Bullshit. And then we started doing shots, come back and fucking we're rooting for Iowa State to beat BYU. And they were. They were. And then we come back and all of a sudden they're getting fucking clobbered. Yeah. It was a weird sports day. It was. But it ended good because the next day, what happened, Shaun?

What? Oh, BK. There you go. What am I talking about? I felt like I set you up really nice right there. Yeah, fucking Brian Kelly, as we know here on this podcast, I am a Notre Dame fan. And it wasn't four years ago that Brian Kelly ditched Notre Dame late in the season to join LSU. And his comments were because he wanted to go to a place he didn't feel like he could win a national title. Which is like a really shitty thing to say. Really shitty thing to say. And then he went to a place that does win a lot of national titles and got his fucking ass fired. Hold on. And not only that, I hated him because of what he did to ND, but then I hated him more.

The minute he got there, he all of a sudden grew like a Southern drawl. Oh, and he had that dancing video. And he was like, and I'm like, whoever represents him that set him up that way is so fucking terrible. Bad. So, yeah, well. But this is what I was talking to. Our buddy Tyler was at third base the other night and I was talking to him and I was like, these coaches have it so good. You can have one like killer season or maybe a couple. you can go somewhere else and get just fat paid 100 million dollars guaranteed whatever and then you can just suck you know what I mean and you're 53 million 53 million yep like and it happens constantly they're doing this to people James Franklin what was his at Penn State like 40 something 40 something but just get bought out and sit on your couch was the highest here that he just had oh yeah I saw that but that is fucking ridiculous it's insane but whatever yeah I mean so real quick we just want to say fuck Brian Kelly Right?

Fuck Canada. Hey, fuck you, buddy. Go Irish. What we're going to say is go Irish. Go Irish. Yeah, fuck Brian Kelly. Couldn't happen to a nicer man. I hope your southern drawl went away, you piece of shit. Let's just hope we don't end up getting him in Iowa. Don't even say that. First of all, I can't see that. He wouldn't go. Yeah. Good. He wants to win a national title. He might go to Penn State. That'd be weird. He could, though. That's a good point. What if they just swap? Or he'd just be smart and take your fucking 53 million and just run off into the sunset. Oh, my God. I think we're doing this podcast too much.

We're speaking in each other. It's getting sweaty in here. Well, my pants are stiff. How about you? No, how funny would that be? Like James Franklin goes to ND and then he goes to fucking Penn State. It won't happen, but it'd be hilarious. Marcus isn't going anywhere. You said ND, but you didn't. I was like, whoa, whoa, whoa. I like Marcus. We got our coach. yeah no i'm at ls yeah hopefully it doesn't go anywhere i think the only job he would leave for is the ohio state job just because alumni but that job isn't coming open no now i mean same with like same thing with indiana it's by the way it's so weird seeing indiana be really good at football but i mean they got the fifth highest paid coach well that's just it i don't know what his buyout is but i was good for him so i was just gonna say what happens when they suck for two years like ah fuck it here's 70 million here's the thing they've never been good so even if they're just like over 500 he's probably a lifeline coach he'll be just fine yeah that's true so so yeah anyways yeah i think we have an email oh shit i'm so glad that you thought of that because i did not i did think of that so um and i want to say i'm very proud of this email yes because we all know remote producer ben but he always just texts sean and i'm like damn it i i wish people email it's like easier to keep track of right right he sent an email in so remote producer ben says hey boys great job as always few things from a few shows ago you were talking about super troopers and yes it is fucking great kate and i did meet jay i'm gonna fuck up his last name oh chandra scar

chandra has got yeah chandra has got chandra has got after one of his shows his stand-up was funny and he was a good dude during the show they asked for three people to come up and do a beer chug race against him like in beer fest i bet you guess who went up and who beat him yep kate went up on stage and beat barry badrenath or jay from that so that was his barry was his name in super troopers oh yeah yeah uh or no i believe or no in uh beer fest beer fest yeah yeah yeah i was gonna say it was wrong yeah beer fest because he was the best he was the best chart it was thorny and yeah yeah he was thorny and uh after the show we got to hang out with him and he told us the new super troopers movie was coming he also said they have a script for beer fest too but the studio that owns the rights is being a bitch so he isn't sure if that will happen here is my question for discussion one of the wait wait hold on before we do this i gotta put in there so he calls people up that's part of his stand-up he'll call other people up to chug with him yeah and he's only lost like twice and chris beat him as one of the people that really just because he can he can just chug beer like yeah that it's not like you know he's that actually good at it doing it so like he was saying and it's probably been more than twice but he's like i don't i rarely get beat like that's hilarious normally happens well good he'll definitely remember yeah uh now i want to check bigger with chris right he's tough to beat yeah because eric's pretty fast yeah i haven't there's a guy from my hometown that's really fast at just checking out of a glass yeah but i challenged him if i shotgun and so fucking close oh yeah just a hair well it's like that dude that you see the

viral videos of uh him with the 20 to my 100 i'll beat you in a chug have you seen that guy makes like a grand at every like sporting event he goes to he chugs 40 beers but yeah nobody can beat him at some point i would just be like i can't take anymore right when nobody sees you off camera you go puke real quick that's just liquid out so ben said one of the golden rules that i also teach my daughters if you don't ask the answer is always no what have you done that is cool or out of the box because you just simply asked i've been upgraded to first class on flights and given suites at hotels by simply asking also fyi if you don't know what delivered the sandwich is try it next time you check into a resort the sandwich the sandwich is place a 20 between you and your id and credit card at a check oh i messed that up hold on place a 20 between your id and credit card at check-in then ask for an upgrade i have heard of that i think it's probably up to a 50 now yeah inflation's a bitch yeah the best is probably the time i bought the floor model of a dining room table and wanted it delivered that day on a friday the delivery guys for the furniture store called in sick so they couldn't deliver it until the following week i saw the truck sitting there and just asked can i drive your truck that was a pretty big truck and a stick shift which luckily i could drive they kind of looked at each other and said well i'm not buying it if we looked at each other and said i'm not buying it but i can't have it today two minutes later they brought me the keys and off i went their truck from the southwest side of cr to my house in marion that's hilarious another one sean you remember norderdame stanford and college game

day was there we get to the game day site and they are blocking off the front part so we are back quite a bit we asked the security guard can we just slip past we can go to the front guy looks around goes okay how many do you have and i just say a couple he goes okay go well a couple was like 10 of us but we were in the front row of the game that day so if you go to game day you know the stage yeah like if you go there so then they have the whole yard or whatever but they have the blocked out part of like where they it's called you know hold the home depot area oh yeah it's blocked off where you get in there and that's where i mean you can get on camera other places but right there is like where they talk to you and everything where all the signs are whatever and so they cut it off for people coming in and out and ben's like not he's like come on look at him he's like let's go he's like ben i think he had like 20 he's like are you sure we can't get up there he's like how many you got he's like just a couple of us man he goes all right and so we just all shoved all the way through like we just took off and started running and then people started following us too but he was like all right sounds good go for it yeah so he said so kids remember the answer is always no unless you ask what are some of yours cheers boys go chiefs who play tonight and norderdale yeah so thanks for the email back yeah and thank you for emailing in god it makes my heart so happy right all right that's pretty good so what have you what have you got you got me i know i'm trying to think like i mean i i have i have awesome ones like he was speaking to me yeah you guys are one of the same so my friend my friend jeff is the one that kind of sparked this with me so i think i've mentioned this before but he's always like it doesn't hurt

to ask and he he he goes further and it sounds like it sounds like ben is similar yeah in that sense to jeff where he'll push that envelope more yeah i'm more of like things i want to do in the right situation that don't really cost anybody inconvenience or time yep like my number one thing is go to a hotel and we're checking in late because we're on this bike trip and so we're getting in at nine ten o'clock whatever and we're intoxicated and riding bikes pool's open right and they're like nah it closes i'm like yeah could it be open for us yeah and like we're all sweaty and shit and they're like no problem yeah like you guys make sure you clean up after yourselves and you know like yeah it's totally fine yeah um things like that like i haven't really asked about room upgrades before but like any of those scenarios where like lounges or different things like that when you're flying if you can ask yeah um i've had a couple of good scenarios there i've also been turned down several times so things like that where i don't feel like i'm really putting anybody else out i feel good doing it because it's like worst thing they're gonna say is no yeah right and and that's what yeah i tell my kids all the time i go if you ask right and they say no same thing with if you're you know my son is we've talked about a different job or like things through and i'm like okay well if you ask and it doesn't work out what happens and he's like well they tell me no i'm like yeah but you're exactly where you are now nothing changed place you know what i mean as long as you're not offensive or being whatever

go for the go for the ask you got to go for it um every time we when i book a hotel and i don't use like priceline or you know i don't use like one of the sites like or whatever like that um and i use so i've done like holiday ends right on their site i will always put in like our one-year anniversary or five-year anniversary oh that's smart they're just every time if they got a suite open and you they see it's your anniversary they're bumping you up every time that's smart i've said it before but i've never just put it in like you put it in the thing because like anything for your notes whatever yeah if you put that in there then every time they if there's an if there's a uh the suite available you'll get it that's awesome yeah aaron will tell you this like that's i can't do that she'll have to book it if we're gonna do that because we'll go to fucking texas roadhouse and she'll be like oh it's so-and-so's birthday i'm like no it's not stop it quit lying damn it eric like i am okay hold on that's where like i can't do it here's an example do that so like if it's not my anniversary somebody to get kicked out of like like it's an open room i should i should i'm not i'm not getting free and i'm saying i should i agree lying's bad but you're saying like you can't even fib a little bit like you just tj is a lot of it's tough for me like i just can't i can't really do it so like especially if it's to somebody's face now the hotel thing's a little interesting because you could do it online so i'm not like lying to somebody's face right well they just go happy anniversary you go

thank you yeah so what what if what if you went to a restaurant i would just start laughing and i always oh and here's the other thing i always just put in there we're celebrating our anniversary i didn't necessarily put that it was yeah yeah so what if you went to eric you can always be celebrating your anniversaries for helping me lie happy anniversary it's called the gray area let's say you went to a restaurant recently it's like 40 dollars for like whatever like you're at a fancy buffet. It's $40. You have like one of your kids with you, like, you know, Audrey, let's say, and we're still nine. Well, okay. So, so, but hold on, hold on. Here's the thing though. They don't say anything, but they just like, you see on the bill, they only charged your daughter $10 because they thought she was like, Oh yeah. Under 12 or whatever. Would you say something? No, exactly. Okay. Just make it sure. I'm not going to go try to pay you more money. Okay. But you're also not going to go lie and go he's nine yeah yeah i'm not going to do that but i'm not going to go try to pay more money okay um i would probably in that scenario just give him a little better tip like there you go yeah that's what that's what we did i don't feel good you know like yeah because also sometimes you wonder if they're doing it on purpose or like because there is kind of like a i rub your back you rub mine thing in the industry where it's like you know we've all been at a place and they're like oh they didn't charge us like for any of the kids pops or whatever and like okay well it's all money in your pocket like here's five extra i always just throw down some tip yeah call it good yeah so i'm pretty sure i've shared this before but i was i called ben today while i was waiting before we were coming here um and he's the chiefs are home so they're

all they're all tailgating they're out at the game and he goes you you get the best one of those stories i'm like really he goes yeah um so me and my old roommate bibby would go to pizza daddy's yep and order pizza and then the caveat because we'd be downtown we'd be like caveats like you're gonna get that delivered and we would be like and you're gonna deliver us home so we didn't have to pay for a cab and we're getting like buy you know and granted we gave him a great tip yeah for it but it was one of those things going okay we showed up it was first time and tom's like you know ordering food and he goes so if i have that delivered can i just jump in the car and get a ride home with you and have that delivered home and they said yes and so that became our fucking go-to move that's fucking genius though i remember you i remember you telling me that a long time ago i'm like man like papa john's or just like a basic chain of pizza yeah needs to open downtown and you just like get your pizza to go and you're like oh i'll go with yeah you're like well we have two stops before you're like i don't care yeah whatever i'll eat my pizza yeah what do you want like it sounds good like i mean we tipped them big so it wasn't like like they're like I feel like the first time there was I feel like Tom like just put a 20 down like so it wasn't it was more than inconvenience of waiting for a cab than it was you know what I mean you didn't get it for but it was like it made sense you know what I mean did you guys watch the league jumping in yeah I didn't know I know of it but I only say because Ruxan on there like there's a thing where he has triple A and every time he's wasted he ordered like

he orders his car to be towed and he just sits in his car and he's like take me home and they're like you can't do that he's like bet your ass i can't i pay three dollars a year for this service like and they're like you only get 12 and he's like and i've only used nine drive the car that's fucking great i know right like it's like that little shit you don't think about here in town one of the tow companies that they would tow your car for 60 bucks and take you with it no way really really yeah it was like the drunk driving thing like it would just like do it because me and a buddy like back when the day we were like how could we honestly if they had fucking electric bikes back in the day we would have been in a business of fucking driving electric bikes folding them up throwing the trunk drive your fucking car home so yeah i would have done that all i saw this forever ago but we were talking about because i would do it all through the week yeah because on the weekend you can leave your car at a bar who gives a shit you don't care it's the week when you're like i gotta fucking work tomorrow like i gotta get up to you know what i mean like that you do something stupid right where it's like or you test the limits you know whatever but it's like during the week all day long i'd be like so i have my car in the morning yeah yeah i'm trying to i can't remember the country this was a long time ago but i saw this video about they had this like electric bike that folded up and they would drive to you put it in the trunk drive you home in your car and then they'd put the bike back together and they would drive the way you go yeah like you could totally do that now with oh yeah electric bike you know what i mean the way those things just depends how far it is like you know there's

a little but the beauty is you can always say no like where are you going like i'm not like no one's driving my ass home but i mean i won't even pay for door dash on my ass ain't doing it but i will walk to my car in the morning thank you very much i almost i gotta get my steps in on sunday almost just biked over and got my truck but yeah i have a 16 year old so that does pay yeah that's for sure how late did you guys go it wasn't late no it wasn't super late but but it was an early day i came into it planning to not drive home yeah i mean because you knew aaron was coming so like yeah you guys took off i was saying that sophie showed you they grabbed sophie so she drove us home perfect hey one benefit of your kids being able to drive is like yeah i was home that was good so i just had to deal with my stupid dog being an asshole at the fire pit but yeah you reminded me of something when you're talking about getting delivered home by the pizza guy we used to ask every fucking time i lived with a buddy in north liberty and we had to order at the time north liberty was small as shit oh yeah we lived in a condo there and we had to get our papa john's from coraville oh they deliver it up to us yeah every single fucking time they would answer the phone and we would say we'll take a pig and fungus and a case of beer.

They would do that? We asked them every single time. Twice. Really? Twice they pulled it off? They had to say no on the phone because they're working but the guy stopped and got one and brought it to us. What a fucking boss. We threw cash at him.

That's what's crazy is now you can just do that. You know what I mean? Yeah. It's still weird that you can just have alcohol dropped off. You know what I mean? I did go up and see our friends Ben and Melissa recently. Ben got a sweet dartboard in his garage, like the legit one from the bars. I'm this close to getting one. I think it's going to be my midlife crisis purchase.

Mine's starting to act up because it fucking hit the ground. No. I didn't have it anchored in right. Someone grabbed the darts, didn't hold the board. and just yanked it and the whole fuck and started bouncing bing bing bing like sucks he had a like he wanted a certain drink or whatever like he just had it delivered like we're sitting there throwing darts and girl walks up like door dash I'm like hell he's like thanks bottle of booze I'm like what the hell like I forget you can do that so all the way out where they're at yeah that's crazy I know right so but there must be somewhere close enough that it I mean Andrean's close but it's close yeah I mean there's lots of stuff around there but yeah good stuff that still seems but that's just something i forget about again i would never do it but so uh we're erica we got a dad joke here yeah you guys ready i gotta we got a birthday girl we gotta go meet up we do have a cheese game to go watch too are you sure you guys don't want to know more of the ginger or the oh i really do but it's really good we'll do it anyway okay what kind of birds do you find in portugal i was thinking a swallow for something dirty but what portuguese oh my god i want to tip your computer over i expected the table if it didn't have drinks God, I really once said Bert, I'm like, swallow.
