Welcome to We're Still Cool, Right? The weekly podcast where the conversation flows smoother than top-shelf whiskey. And cool, well, it never really left. Grab a drink and hang out with Erik, Mike, and Shaun while they dive into nostalgia and attempt to answer the age-old question. We're still cool, right?

Celebrate good times fuck off! Jesus. That's the new way you sing that song. I will say, that can crack is pretty fucking good with that. That was loud. Normally you don't get it with the... Like a bush light? Yeah, you know it's your standard bush light so you get the... I didn't realize what a bitch fucking crack bush lights are compared to... Thank you, dimensional. Well no, a lot of times when we do a lot of the other crack ones, they don't pop like that. Yeah, that was solid. But that one is so... Shout out to Joe, Shane, and Granite Dimensional Because you guys fucking fully loaded these bitches But we're back for another one We are back baby And we're celebrating And we're going to get into all that But first Because we're celebrating We're drinking a little whiskey We're drinking a little Dimensional beer We are also doing some Underbergs Courtesy of Benz Because I picked them up there when I picked up six bottles of a whiskey that we're a huge fan of. You should go buy them.

They're ours. Where'd you go? Was it 501? It was. It was a giant green building. You'll know because you get hard as you pull close to it. It's just like a force pulling. You can try to go buy it and then also be like, why is my car turning? Oh, there it is. If you're at a Tesla where it auto drives, it just takes you right there. I think my alignment's off. No, it's not. Benz is bringing you home. Benz is bringing you home right now. Do your best not to crash into the building, But it can withstand it exactly There's a reason why that baby stoner I'm not picturing like a commercial where like people are just being horrible thing People are being sucked into this building Stuck to the side like ah come on We should make Benz the horror movie and just fucking cars crashing into each other But everyone then has a bottle of whiskey like it's okay Yeah, once it's the scary part is they're stuck to the building and then somebody learns how to open the door and then also it's like Oh, we're saved! We are saved baby!

yeah so but yeah so we had the obviously we've talked about underberg's a lot we have these we had them at beer fest uh and if you don't know the caps are collectible which we cracked these but like you could turn them in for gear like merchandise like uh like marlboro miles like the old deal yeah but like the joke was you know our buddy clint has a lot of caps him and matt both and they're saving up for like the bandolier which is like this thing where we're like under strapped in it and I was like I made the joke I'm just gonna buy it on eBay and fuck with them like look what I got then I looked it up it's so expensive I remember saying like how many does it take to get it and they were like 10,000 or some shit like that I was like okay cool I'm gonna support you getting that exactly right so like at Beer Fest I'll say to that note I almost threw away a cap at Beer Fest and Clint's like over my shoulder like yeah like what are you doing with that I'm like what do you mean he's like you're gonna give me that cap or like I'm like oh shit sorry I forgot Yeah, he was like just give it to me I brought that tin of 12 and I never even saw a cap. It's like they were Most of the time when somebody buys them they take the cap off and hand you it Yeah, yeah, like they don't want to fuck with that. Yeah, so shout out to Clint and Matt, but uh, we're gonna do these And Benz, so thanks guys. Yeah, thank you Benz. Let's drink these and then get into the episode. Cheers boys That's so gross There's so much to jerk off in my mouth.

I promise it's better than our face has said. We're going to need to debrief that whole thing that just happened in the Patreon episode. I'm so glad this is a Patreon. It's worth it because my gut health is better now. Yeah. Fuck. My stomach already feels better. So get yourself something on a Benz. They sell them in three packs. Hey, they're fun. They're fun. Also, fun one-minute conversation. you can buy them on Amazon. And they're also the digestive, right? Digestives. So for real, when you're going to have a hodgepodge of booze not a bad way to start. You can get them on Amazon, but do you think they taste better from Benz?

They definitely taste better from Benz. Everything tastes better local. They just feel more legit instead of fucking Bezos getting it. You know what I mean? There it is. He rubs his dick all over it. Him and his blown up rocket. Fuck him. Let's get into this. Do you think Jeffrey Bezos is just rubbing his penis on everything in an Amazon warehouse? I would. I would just walk through there. Hang on, Dylan. What's going on? I'm just rubbing my penis on everything. Hang on, look at me. Amazon sponsor us. Yeah. Why wear pants at that point if you're Bezos? Oh, no, find me. Jeff, I'm pretty sure we got a great commercial.

Just you walk around rubbing your dick on stuff. Let's go. Join us. Hey, Jeff, I'm bald, too. We can make it together. I mean, you know, there is something to be said for people rubbing their dick on something and people buying it. I don't know. Ooh. Ooh. That feels like a Patreon topic.

All right. We also got some good other stuff here, and I think you need to share some good news, Erik. Yeah. Yeah. We're going to celebrate a little bit tonight because I got a job offer. He's gainfully employed. Hey-oh. You know, we're in the early stages, but I got an offer, and it's pretty fucking awesome, and I'm happy about it. Yeah, it is. To celebrate, we got a couple of drinks here in front of us. We do. I brought a barrel-aged stout from Dimensional. Our boys at Dimensional. We love you guys. French Toasted. What a fucking great name. So this is a one of one. I got one bottle. Yeah. So I just brought it straight here.

Went up and picked it up today and brought it straight here. And we're going to drink this delicious concoction. This is a sipper. It's viscous. Yeah. Like we always say, when it pours like motor oil, you know it's going to be good. It's going to be good. I love barrel aged stout so much. French toasted, barrel aged stout, definitely has some maple syrup. So, enjoy. You can smell the maple syrup right on it. That is so good. That is just a dessert. That is just a candy. It's just maple syrup with a little bit of beer in it. Oh, man. But yeah, what's the ABV on it? Like 14? I'm pretty sure. I haven't looked, but yeah.

Oh, fuck. That is good. That's the dangerous shit. That is really good. That's like when we used to go to beer shares and it'd be 27 of those lined up. And you only had a little bit of each one. You're like, whew. Yeah, but then why am I so fucking smashed? That's what I'm saying, yeah. It's like, all I had was a couple of candy drinks. You said a nip. This tastes like diabetes. I mean, yeah, your blood sugar's through the roof for sure. But then in honor of Erik's celebration today, I jumped into Ashley's little stash and brought some Castle and Key for us. So this is when we talked about her going on her trip.

She went and brought this back, and it was pretty good. I'm excited because I haven't had this one. Is that what it says? Yeah, Whedon. Nice. I haven't had this at all. Thank you. So it's, yeah, I mean, we had some the other night. It's pretty good. And you can't get it around here. I like a good weeder. A good weeder. Yeah, right? Yeah, I'm excited because I had never even heard of this one. So, yeah, congratulations to you, dude. That's awesome news. Cheers. Thanks, man.

It's a happy day on this podcast. That's delicious. That's good. That's some good stuff right there. It's almost as good as the one we picked. You know what I mean? That's crazy. This is smooth and easy. I would assume it's not as high ABV as ours. Yeah, what's the proof on it? Because that's not cask strength, probably. Where the hell are we? Come on. It might be on the front. It might be. but yeah um oh 108 oh okay yeah so it's still high it's not yeah i mean they can't get to 118 like we do well yeah you know but yeah it is um yeah cast strength is what they say so that's delicious that's good stuff you should save the rest of that bottle so we can drink it in the ozarks this summer actually when i grabbed it today to bring it down ashley's like so Like that's coming back home, right?

That's not going in your stash. Can you imagine if you brought it home empty? She's gonna be like, what the fuck happened? We were already putting pretty good debt in there, so I'll probably be going home and she'll be like, what the fuck? But I don't think she's good. She don't care. Yeah, well congrats buddy. It's for a good cause. Amen. Before we move on, I should say I got some good news today too. I didn't tell you guys, but the Rams got Miles Garrett. So if you haven't noticed I'm wearing my Rams gear Because it's a good day to be a Rams fan I always wonder when you're wearing Rams gear Why?

Yeah, because it's not football season I don't usually wear it But I was looking at my drawer And I was like, today's the day And I just got this hat Kara gave me a month early birthday present And got a new Rams hat So I was like, fuck it, let's do it So what set off the outfit? That you wanted to wear the hat So then you matched the shirt? No, it was the trade But then I saw it and I was like I can wear my shirt And then I like right on above it on my dresser was the new hat. I was like, well, fuck it. Now I know God's telling me I have to do it. Completed the outfit. Yeah. So the whole giddy up.

Yep. So we got miles Garrett for, uh, I think it was Jared verse. And then we first round pick next year, second round pick the next year. And then third round pick the year after. So we'll see if it's worth it. They gave up quite a bit. So a lot of people are saying they're stupid. I don't think they are. I think miles Garrett's going to, he's a fucking monster. I mean, I would assume that he's a, not a long pole, like probably a two three year well it kind of feels like the ramps are kind of at that they're doing it now where they need to build well they're going to go all in like because they're going to lose stafford here you know i mean like it's this is your window you got like one more year you know stafford's going to be out you know and then they're going to have to and a star like that helps to like build that side oh yeah the demons are sick now yeah i have a feeling the coach will be gone too after that mcbay yeah i think if they win another one he's gone. It wouldn't shock me. He's got enough money.

I think if they win, because he almost thought about stepping away last time after they won, I don't know if I see him with the whole rebuild, but kind of one of those things when you don't have a quarterback. He's so young, too, though, which is funny. They said he's a work halt. He just gives everything to it that is just get burnt out. He's young, rich, and his wife is smoking. He's going to be just fine. Hot. Hot. They're going only in this year, too, because the Super Bowl is going to be in their home stadium. Right, so fine. so if they can do it they've got so they did that last time right did they win last time when they didn't win at SoFi it wasn't? I don't think that was it was close because they got the first year that SoFi opened up they had the Super Bowl right and they were in the hunt yeah they were in the hunt and then the other thing is I talked to you guys about this before but it's like maybe Aaron Donald would come out and say hello you're right the Rams won in 2022 over the Bengals at SoFi Stadium.

It was. My brain doesn't work this way. I can't Rolodex back for four or five years. I just remember it being a big deal because they were at home.

Fun fact, only two NFL teams have played a Super Bowl in their home stadium and both won the game. It was the Rams and then it was the Buccaneers the year before in 2021. in my head i was going was it like the dolphins i remember the bucks winning yeah the bucks the bucks is a like more memorable because their fucking stadium is memorable it's like that was when tom brady was there yeah yeah yeah that's when he just beat the chiefs 31 to 9 yeah i don't want to talk about it i was like don't bring that up that was fucking ridiculous the great hey fuck off you're having a good enough day we need to tag you down no but i will say like that that super bowl pissed me off so much just because it should have been more competitive it was it was boring it was bad boring as fuck and it was one like the chiefs came in and the bed they did yes like unexpectedly like they were so there wasn't an injury there wasn't anything that was like it was like they were surprisingly bad we were all like we were all like in cheat like we were all pulling for you and it was like we were at your house and i was like just watching eric like slowly declined into madness i'm like we might want to go madness slash drunkenness yeah yeah was that three pete they wanted to win what the chiefs i think it was going to be like three and five years or something i don't know that's someone was in a row that's what kicked it off they lost that one and then they went on there then they won after that okay oh that's the first one that mahomes made and he got beat and then he won the next year and then you know went on the the run from the I believe yeah yeah you're right I believe that's the case because that was the

it was the torch Brady passing it to the next year my home it was more of a is Brady the goater is my homes the new go yeah the thing like well I still think the best part about the whole thing was fucking Brady getting wasted and then throwing the trophy oh my god in the river or whatever yeah hold on in the guys defense that's probably the first of me to drink and like well he doesn't 20 years he doesn't drink all season that's what i mean like touch alcohol in there so then right after that so i don't know if you had four beers hey or one of these you know one of these i'm sure they're drinking good too yeah you know yeah so the chiefs won the year before in 2020 so it would have been a back-to-back okay i think people might be wondering about it okay okay um so yeah so they've in the last five years or i guess 2020 won 2020 lost 21 123 124 lost 25.

Still not a bad run. I just want to throw that out there for Chiefs fans. Dude, this year, they're gearing up, too. They're making a run for it this year, too. Is Kelsey feeling 22? I'm more excited about our running back. Our running back room looks real nice. It true You took too long Logan You can do it now I calling it Alright Congrats to all the good things we got going on Go ahead Chuck I like how you did a very muted one. That was weak. Because it took too long. Oh, it's going down. It just went from bad to worse.

Everything's going wrong. I'll tell you later. Alright. I wanted to see if you guys could guess the top 10 beers by volume sold in 2025 um domestic beers so not just i'll guess number one how do you okay i'm gonna i'm gonna side eye for a second but i think you're gonna i think you'll understand this once so good say the one that you think is number one so i think modello is number one it's not modello is number two but they sold 23 million barrels so that's where you get it by volume you know i mean like that's what it was so they beat out like bud light for the first time ever in the last so it's number two i didn't know it was that popular so let me serve up on a silver platter bud light bud light is number eight eight they sold uh they probably went from one or two to in the last three years between seven and eight million barrels is what they did and they were before was it 2024 she read this there's 23 i think in 23 they were number one by a lot of phenomenal amount that bud light has dropped dropped off that much and this is broken down by actual style right so like it's like bud light bush light okay so like budweiser Budweiser is on the list at 7 so it goes just above Bush Light Bud Light I'm sorry, Bush Light was 8

Bud Light's 3 I would have said Bush Light So Bush Light is 8 million barrels and that was 8 Quick cheating you fuck Bud Light's 21 million they're number 3 So to clean it up, we have Modelo at 2 we have Bud Light at 3 we have Budweiser at 7 and we have Bushlight at 8 hold on let's do a callback Budweiser us three go Bud for the young people at home who have never seen that commercial with the frogs that was from like the 90s when you hear your family what are we doing? Olive Garden what the fuck I've never seen that you're young it was a commercial of three frogs it was amazing Yeah, it was like the viral...

All right, what else you got? I would play it, but I don't want to show it a good block. That's a good call. You haven't got number one yet here. It's not... It can't be Coors Light, but I'm going to say Coors Light. It's got to be on the list. Coors Light is number four. Okay. 16 million barrels. Higher than I would have thought. Yeah, same. And then Miller Light has to be on there. Number five at 15 million barrels. Something obvious that we're not thinking of. Right. I'm working on it. I'm thinking. Are you walking down the aisle? Corona is number six at 11 million barrels. Yeah, I knew Corona was below Medo.

Because we have two through eight. So you have, yeah, you need one, nine, and ten. What the fuck is one? It's going to piss us off. I know. It already is. I don't drink. How drink are we? Big domestic beers. I don't know. Right? Not to sound pretentious. No, but it's true. It was the most fucking pretentious thing you could have. It was so bad. I'm sorry. If it's old Milwaukee, I'm flipping this table. As I hold my glass with my pinky out. But, like, I just don't buy it, so I don't know. I never looked at it. Yeah, same. I'm like, Ultra? There you go. Is it really? And that's what I drink typically.

Mic Ultra 25 million barrels. You know what? We're very carb-conscious these days. That's why. That's true. So now you got 9 and 10. And I will say they're a little, I mean. Obscure. Obscure. One is one of Erik's favorites.

Butch Apple. Yeah. i know i'm kidding one of eric's favorites it's in one of your favorite drinks that you love to order oh duh fucking the champagne miller high life that's number 10 okay duh um i should have known that a spaghette yes i think they had three million three million barrels sold the year so one more number nine high life made 10 I am too. But this one really surprised me. Number nine surprises the shit out of me. Natural Light. No, Nate! Are you serious? Yes! Wow! That beer is so bad. I kind of like Natty Light. No, we drank millions of barrels when we were young. Because it's cheap and gross and high ABV.

We would always drink Natty Light for when we would do the Century Club. You know what I mean? That's what we'd always get. Can I tell you guys a story about Natty Light? Yeah, and then I'll tell you one. i went to not a drinking story i was at the anheuser bush brewery in st louis yeah and we're doing the tour and like i mean i'm with i don't know 40 30 40 other people whatever however many they do on a tour it was a decent sized crowd but not so big that you couldn't talk to people and i'm like i like bush light i like bud light i like amber bach you know these are my things yeah miss amber and so i'm like going through the whole it's not gone man i know it's still around you can find it amazing it's so good especially if you can find it on tap in a little mini picture hell yeah dude uh anyway side sidebar we'll never get through the fucking story yeah don't bring up amber bach and we'll be good sorry so so like i'm in line with these guys and we finally walk into this room and it has like every beer that they've ever made in a display case yeah i went there too models and it's just like a display case of everything and these guys start going oh it's fucking natty this natty that and they're like just going nuts about every nat natty light beer they loved it that was they were and so they were like so so were they like college kids yeah like they were a little bit younger than me and i would at the time i was probably like i don't know 30 ish okay so yeah and they're like uh so when we get to the end do we get a sample some fresh

natty some fresh net of all the things you can have you're like what does metal taste like when it's fresh even when it's fresh it tastes like skunk beer you know like yeah i remember like i told them like as we were you know getting into the tour and we had a beer at one of the stops i was like okay i had the same memory of bud ice because bud ice was super cheap i forgot about that yeah yeah because like bud ice and all the ice ones yeah ice house yeah they were good for a little bit and then they just went super cheap because nobody wanted them yeah but they were higher abv yeah but they tasted good they're like light and freshen yeah i was like so we we used to get fucking kegs of bud ice for next to nothing yeah yeah well i remember we used to so shout out to brian pence he's the one that like would always be like dude you gotta try nanny light brian yeah and we would get a case for like 11 yeah i mean and that's so so cheap it was like 11 um and that's when i was like dude it wasn't like eight percent or was it like seven okay yeah i guess i never even looked at that i never even knew that i just i just knew it like drank very we were young and drinking like three percent they you up so yeah the two quick things i'll say is our good friend tj when we when we were young and first started drinking he didn't like the taste of beer he also then so he would chug his beers like he would just chug a beer every now and then like like yeah usually a beer bong right well then he didn't like it when it was cold because it hurt

his throat so tj would love this beer warm natty lights like and yeah and that's like like every 30 minutes at the party just be like all right i'm gonna go have a beer and he's like oh that sounds like a punishment like honestly like it sounds like you're in trouble like and he never said it was good well you got a beer ball warm was he also like foam roping behind no no but again he was smart he didn't do it like one after the other he's like no i'm doing one i'll wait 45 minutes i'll do another one but like this it's not shocking to hear tj grew up to only drink like expensive craft beer right it wasn't for him right love you tj but the other one was oh oh what is the worst beer you've ever had before we move on to like is it still cool like the worst cheap beer so there's like old mill or pbr which i pbr is actually good i think but so i remember because there's one in gas stations i think is the i've had it once it was the worst beer i've ever had the worst one i've ever had my whole entire life is an old milwaukee the red one whatever the one the old milwaukee i remember we stole something from some sun mart no someone's parents you know right and it was old mill and i'm like whatever just grab it you know what i mean and i remember being like this is so bad yeah it's pretty dark it was so bad so terrible like it was i've never had one since yeah i mean i've never it left a mark yeah like i don't even i don't with that at all like i got like if it was like no beer or that i'd be like i'm probably just not gonna yeah that's a good that's a good one i was trying to think of i don't know if i have a better

one well so old mill is i distinctly remember having old mill so like it was yeah the heavy the red one because it wasn't even old mill light and i remember the first time i had saint paulie's girl oh my god but i was well see i was younger so i went ahead i'm like this was so bad but you know why but i wasn't even remotely ready for but remember people joke about a beer being skunky i i always i was like i don't understand what that means yeah saint paulie girl is a skunky beer it tastes like a skunk smells it's heineken heineken even even corona and anything in a clear bottle or a green bottle there's science behind it there is yes if there's hops in a beer and you put it in a clear bottle or a green bottle it gets light into the bottle and the hops become light struck and then they create the skunky and say polygrabble's green bottles so anything that's a green bottle or a clear bottle will have a little bit of a skunky flavor all right well you know what i fucking love that surprised me because i don't think but that's the thing is people love corona because a little bit of that like if you took away the skunky you put corona in a black bottle or a brown bottle it is very different yeah people would have no idea i've had it in mexico in a brown bottle and it's very different yeah but um i don't think another high life light tastes skunky but yeah whatever so i will say the high life is a little odd but it does have it just a change of Maybe. Or I've just never thought of it that way now that you say it.

Right. So the worst beer I've ever had out of like that, I still see the gas station. It's like, I don't know how people I think it's just like hobos buying it. I'm not being a dick, but I'm like, it's that cheap. It's that gross. Cool. Forty five steel reserve. That's where I've never had it. It's malt liquor. It's not beer. No, but I liked old English. It's not that like I. So I worked with the guy a long, long time ago. I was like, let's go grab some beers afterward and meet at my apartment. I was like, cool. And he has a six pack of that. And I was like, oh, I've never had that. The first sip, I'm like, no, it's great.

What are you talking about? And I just had to like, it was terrible. You just sparked a memory. Core memory. No, no, no. This is not a core memory. It was repressed memory. Yeah. You know where Quarter Barrel is now? Yeah. At one point, it was a like. It was a club. it was a club yeah i went in there one night and basically your options were oe 40s steel reserve 40s like you like you could get 40s and a couple other things and they had like a like a rap show yeah i didn't know they sold it in 40s but that was the choices for beer there was not other things really and so i had like both an old old english and a steel reserve and i was like these are the worst beers i've ever fucking had you were not their targeted audience and i understand that but like you and your fucking e-bike pulling up was not this is hey this is way before e-bikes and bikes this was this was i'm just imagining dumb and dumber where he rolls up he's like get 40 miles a gallon on this hog you know what i mean no at this point sean i was probably still wearing my boss jeans okay he had the lucky you yeah no it's true though yeah that's so i i never minded oe i really didn't like i don't even know that i had that but yeah i would put i would put both of those in my sewers before old mill oh no let me take old mill over both chime in everybody what is the

worst beer you've ever had we might need to try an old milligan just on here just to give it a yeah but now that we're in the malort and unabergs and everything else we have an episode where we just try it like the worst we talked about this actually oh a blind taste test is what we talked about nathan's gonna be pissed if we do it without him we need to do like a cardboard box and like blind yeah yeah blind taste all the shitty but that's a different thing because if we do if we do just shitty domestics that's gonna be hard to guess because none of us drink them and haven't in 20 years or ever so no if we're gonna do a blind taste test we'd have to do the domestics everybody the ones that we know like if we're gonna pick them but if it was just like a blind taste test to say hey this is miller light and this is old mill and see if i can tell the you know imagine if you blind ranked that like over all mills number one that'd be hilarious maybe we do like uh a couple of weeks of just trying some of the yeah random ones that would go into the taste test and then do the taste test that could be a good thing all right let's do that Actually, that'd be a great way to do that.

We do like six weeks of trying these beers, and then we do a taste test and we figure it out. I like that. I like it, too. All right. So just before we put a bow on this. Yep. Number one, McUltra. Number two, Modelo. Number three, Bud Light. Number four, Coors Light. Number five, Miller Light. Six, Corona. Seven, Budweiser. Eight, Bush Light. Nine, Natty Light. And ten, Miller High Life Light. The Natty Light. Pretty good list and I honestly had every one of them Yeah So whatever Sorry you pulled it close I thought you wanted to say something No, thank you. Oh, okay. I thought he was going to say penis.

See, I pay a lot of attention to Logan. So when he makes moves, I'm like, what's going on? No, I did have a quick story. When I got married, we got bottles of Miller High Life in the champagne bottles. Yeah, the big ones. but they were like a there was like a special shape for that year where they were like a low bell bottle which was cool um got those for my uh best men and i still have my bottle say uh down the basement nice do you want to bring it on a drink it next week i was gonna say what do you think it tastes like after not good but we'll do it well what did we still do it remember when we had that fucking budweiser what year was that budweiser was that it was millennium edition yeah it was it was brewed in 99 this was before we came here flat It was like fucking barley wine The cork just disintegrated I tried to pull it off it just fell apart Like barley and it was gross barley wine is good this tasted like bad But still not as bad as I expected I was gonna be even worse than that so all right, so get into what's still cool Today i do i mean i do okay i got you go so uh my still cool this week is tan lines yes so yes i'm gonna yes yes yes yes but let me let me preface this there's a trend going around on some of the social medias of girls like especially girls i haven't seen any guys doing it but that could be my

algorithm but like i hope so somebody listened right now it's like it's all guys on mine i don't know yeah what are you talking about let's check mike's algorithm it's probably all it's now summer so people are starting to make tan lines but like within the last couple of months there was trends of like girls doing spray tans to like create bikini tan lines so like specifically like they'd wear their bikini and then do a spray and then i feel like somebody was doing almost a stencil because they did the whole ew and they don't want their swimsuit sprayed but they were doing the whole like strap line and everything i shouldn't say you but what's the like that seems like so much extra work for nothing this is what i'm talking about it's like how i i remember tan lines being a little bit of okay it was cool but then it was like also you want to limit it so like girls would be like well i'm going to take the back off so that i don't have a tan line across my back you know for the strap so that when they would sunbathe they would kind of just like untie that so then there wasn't a line is it still cool to have tan lines or is it more cool to have like i'm so confused because this is a i am a fan of natural i only want the natural tan and i also think there is except for like the playboy bunny or the star you can have that yeah You can have that.

You can always have that. I have, like, this whole line of, I don't know, like this, it'd be on a scale of a running of up here, down here. Shaun's going to write his thesis on this. I remember being, you know, like a kid in junior high or whatever, and one of my friends had a really hot older sister that we were laying around, and she unclipped the back because she didn't want a tan line, and I remember being like, oh, my God. Oh, we're so close. I couldn't see anything. She's laying on her stomach, but I'm like, oh, my God. she's almost naked. Oh my god, it's this close. It'd be like, that's the hottest fucking thing I've ever seen.

And then tying it and just laying face down. It did. I was like, oh my god, it's so hot. Say it. What's her name? I don't know her name. Damn it. It just would have been really funny if it was someone we knew from high school or whatever. Fuck. I'll think of it. But then, as now, tan lines are fucking hot as shit. I'm all about that. I thought it was hot as hell. I was going to say, I'm sorry if you guys can't get them because you're ginger fucks. I was going to say, this is kind of weird for me because I'm like, I do better than he does. I had to play the cricket at some point. You do 100% better than I do.

You get them. I don't. Yeah. Oh, so you're saying that you're going to spray tan with lockings? I already have the fucking sunglass lines going. I do I do get a watch line by the way. It's it's a 1% change, but it's like I'm gonna you like brag Look, it's starting and getting my watch line. That's all I get. Yeah, so it's sad It is a certain progression though like how dark you get to me We just just do real ears at that point how about I just I'm here I'm a little bit hairy on the front way hairier other places right how about I just like etching a six-pack is that like it as long as you know Playboy bunny too Ew.

Right about my belly button. In each ab. Fuck you, Logan. Along with barbed wire tattoo. Then you need that. Damn right, yeah. Then you'll be fucking rolling right now. And that's tribal on the other arm. You got a little tan bunny farm going on. Hey, I like this. I like this idea. These two rabbits are fucking... We're really going to get you a job.

So these aren't the jobs I want. I'm going to be honest with you. This is why it's not panning out for me, guys. I have morals. Sorry. yeah well no so i am pro tan lines i am too and honestly i don't know if ashley wanted to put some fake ones on for me like in the winter i'm like i'm not turning it away i just don't like i don't like i don't expect her to do it but if she's going there i'm like man she really loves me i guess it's true love it just seems silly like it's a it's so such a waste like i don't know way more effort that needs to happen like they're hot they're not that hot like they're hot if you just to me if you just get them like that's sweet if you're like going out of your way and paying money to get them i'm like all right jesus i guess i might agree with that because there is something hot about the situation yeah because you're like probably on vacation you're you're like on a beach you're like it's like this whole vibe oh no i felt that makes it hotter than margaritas and reading my book yeah then just like you know it's fucking december 15th and it's fucking yeah I think I'm winning the drawing.

Answer it. Answer it. So I will talk right now. So there's a local gun store called Cedar Valley Outfitters. They're awesome. And you put tickets in this week because it's their anniversary. And Erik's getting a call from them right now. And we're hoping he won. If he won, he really is having the best weekend. Shut up. No kidding. I'm fucking hanging out with him. I'm following him around the last party. Dude, I'm just going to pick up his fucking feet as he walks around. He's dropping gold. You know what I mean? Awesome. He fucking won. We don't even know what it is. Wait, what did he win? It's a gun story. It could be a gun. It could be like a thousand rounds of ammo.

I have no idea. It's their 25th anniversary, I believe. They're awesome. Did you win? You son of a bitch! What did you win? He's just shitting gold right now. I want a fancy pistol case. You fucking ass. God.

Buy a fucking Powerball ticket when you hear it. You have to answer, too, otherwise they move on to the next person. That's why I go, like, I saw it say Cedar Valley, and I go, fucking answer that. Good for you. That's fucking awesome. But, yeah, let's make some stock picks tonight together. Right. I know. What else are we going to work on here? Erik, I have some packs of Pokemon cards I want you to know. Oh, yeah. Now is definitely the fucking time. Bring him, like, one to open on air, because, like, I can't believe that just happened. But I was like, dude, he was telling us before the show, he's like, you have to stop in there every week.

They're doing giveaways, and they give away nice shit. Some days it's actual guns, you know, like so that's congrats. I hate you. I love you. Congrats Anything you get from the gun starts fucking cool CBO is awesome. I'm here talking about I'm just so happy for you Alright, I have some clarifying questions before you move into Well, because we're pretty exclusively talking about women right as as heterosexual men hey don't don't judge man I'm not judging. I'm saying. We're talking about one aspect of it. You can talk about whatever you'd like to. You can refer to whatever you want. I am, yes, thinking of my wife with tan lines.

We are all heterosexual. For example, I keep thinking about that new vocal stem in my head of I'm getting my watch line. Please don't make that a sound. No, it's happening. I have one right now. Are tan lines on men attractive to women? I don't know. We're just not even that attractive to women. Let's be honest. Do you roll your sleeves up when you're working outside? Do you throw a tank on? Do you take your shirt off? I usually wear a cutoff just because I'm so hot. I'm going to share a little trade secret from the biking community. There's a tagline called, fat looks better tan. oh you've said this multiple times yeah sure it always looks better that's what our bike team's tagline is yeah flbt so fat looks better tan i i look at it as like if i can tan the upper body then i feel better with my shirt off sure so um but also the sleeves you're right logan like i i tried it like when i'm oh man what are we doing here when i mow at least this part's gonna be like i'm trying not to create the farmer's tan as much as possible that's fair yeah so here's what's funny like i brought this topic up because of the trend but then fucking last night i'm like in the closet like in in our bedroom just like stripping down putting on my sleeping clothes and aaron's like man you need better tan lines i'm like what the fuck does that

mean yeah okay woman who can't get any tan lines like what what the fuck does that mean there's But it's probably because my ass is white as fuck. Oh, pasty buns. Hey, shout out Adam. I love you. That's been his nickname to me for a long time. For a reason, pasty buns. From waist to knees, I'm pretty white.

Well, Adam can tan, but I accidentally saw his ass once. I was like, my God. That is shiny. By the way, mine's probably shinier, but I haven't seen mine. well you know sometimes hair also contributes in that way this is true this is true i've joked about that like i'm so glad my legs are hairy because it's like i would literally like i people would look i'd look like i'm not walking with legs because they're see-through you know what i mean it'd be very fucked up so yeah sometimes it pays but very good thinking about it you know as far as like it is it is different for guys like we're talking about the male attraction to female and male or males are very visual people well should we do we need to have a female on standby this would be a perfect time to write in about how girls that you feel about deadlines i'm sure they're going to leave all the comments and tell us that we're wrong yeah i think that's great actually um yeah so some leave a comment or submit an email to what email address we're still cool right at gmail.com and let us know especially if you are an individual who's attracted to men, let us know what you think about tan lines.

Yeah. We want that perspective. Or if you're a man. Do I need to start sunning my ass? I got to change the pool rules to figure that out. That's true. I don't want to see it. Also, neither do the kids, but go ahead. When you say fat looks better tan, have you also seen the memes where it's like the girls on a boat? It's like, hey, girls, remember when you're on the boat, the guy that owns a boat and it's like some fat guy, you know? That's where I'm like, I got a boat, I can be fat. I don't even care. I'll take my shirt off with my big belly because I got the fucking boat. Yeah, fat also looks better rich.

It's not even hey, rich, just fat looks my fucking boat, you'll deal with it. Fat looks better rich. Fuck, I can't tan and I'm not rich. I'm so fucked. Like, aw. Damn it. Sorry, buddy. You want to open some Pokemon cards? We're here for you, buddy. no i'll open them for you yeah yeah if anyone needs me i'll be in my own thoughts for the next hour it's fine this is where i like to live it's great we just talked about how fucking good the rands are gonna be all right what more do you need we don't know it's all a hypothesis sean all right my vote fucking cool tan lines fucking cool they're cool yeah i would say in general they're cool we prefer the natural over the other one but regardless they're still cool yeah natural cool yeah than the natural i'm like not a big fan of it like i don't know i'm not a fan of doing extra steps for something just for for what do the kids call it like uh to make it cool or whatever the thing is if you want to spray tan do it but like why are you trying to create intentional lines don't go out of your way wait until like everybody else is doing it to do that because i will also say that there may not be any sexier smell than like that suntan lotion coconut coconut yeah so on the fresh hot hot but the spray tan no that's yeah don't I'm good can you go

all right so my day today i got to play uh golf at the country club which first time i ever played there while working rough day working yeah yeah it's a great yeah there are some benefits sometimes being a banker when you can entertain some customers and be playing out there but is belonging to like a country club still cool because it used to be like back in the day it was very status right like it was if you had money you belonged to the country club and then that was like almost a requirement if you got to a certain level you have to be like the 3b yeah like because i remember actually a big thing was like businesses would always have a membership there because they're like we gotta be there that's where the money like we have to so like banks a lot of times would have members you get presents there because you'd be you should be there talking to these people if you're going to find these customers right so um and here we have two clubs one the cedar rapist country club the one i played today is very old and very like been around and you know i don't know whether it's accurate or not they kind of call it like the old monies they're like the families that have money that like for a long time that have been there and then you know there's elmcrest which gets reputation more newer money or it's younger families right that are more younger and they've been pulling like the uh tour type people coming

in doing like the jack uh jack johnson zach johnson so zach was from that he grew up playing that course and so that's why he's but it like brings a little bit more of a modern feel because of that it does but like when you go to the two course because i've been i played both of them now and i've been at their clubs crcc is very different right it is very very nice like it's a whole like it's one of the nicest courses it's unbelievably and not that elmcrest isn't nice but crcc like when you put the two together they're very it's definitely different definitely a little bit more upscale with it but can you take us on both of these so that we can like i don't know i had to get invited like i had to i have no way no i can't i've been to both clubhouses i've never played their courses yeah so i played both played one because we paid for the charity event today that we did that and then the other one that i had yeah a friend take me but yeah so like my son is there all the time no i don't pay for that it's his friends right like their parent and that's fine like go have fun and then my nephews at cedar rapids or elmcrest cedar rapids okay and then my my nephews go there all the time like their mom has a you know membership or whatever yeah and it's great but a funny story about that is i she told me recently like they're members because of a family member or whatever right yeah which they do it like that's a family thing and that's great but one of the nephews was like hey i'm gonna do my senior like my my graduation party here and she's like no you're not right and she's like that's not just like a let's go by the pool

type thing she's like that's like a hundred thousand dollar event like we're not doing that and it's like it cracked because like kids don't think like that they're just like well i've been there i go there all the time to swim and stuff so let's just do it there have you guys ever been to them at all like yeah i've been to both places for events i've never been able to play golf or But I've seen some of their amenities. Where you're almost like a member. They're very different, right? Because there's a monthly fee, and then you have to spend so much. Yes. Like it's required to spend so much. And they don't take any money.

So it's like you're always walking around giving your name, and then you just get a bill. But that's what it's like. When I went to some of my rich friends when I was younger, it was fucking great. Because they'd be like, wow, this is a way to pay for it. Hold on. Put it on my tab. But it would be like that. But then it was also, then there's other people that I know that they're like, yeah, do it because I have to spend so much. Yeah. Or I just have to write a check. You know what I mean? If I don't spend it, I still have to write. So I'd rather you just get, I'd rather something be gotten for it.

You know what I mean? Then I do it. But I don't know. Is it still cool? Is that still like a cool thing or not? I don't think it's cool or uncool. Like, I think it's one of those things where it's like, if you can afford it, that's great. I don't think it ever went uncool. I didn't grow up like that, obviously. So like I, but I had friends who did cause we went to private school. Yeah. So it's like, I went there sometimes it always looked fucking cool to me. You know what I mean? Like, so if you, if you got the means, man, there's nothing wrong with it. Having a little place that you can always go and like having a great course to play on all the time.

Like, I just don't know that even if I had the money, I mean, I guess I would have to have a shit ton of money that I would just belong to it. But like, that's never been like a goal for me. Like once I make enough money, I want to belong to one of those. let's do a callback to the Patreon if you had X amount of money would you pay for it? do you think it's worth it? if you made $300,000 a year would you pay for it? I wouldn't because like we've talked about I'll spend my money on the Ozarks there's too many better things that's what I'm saying that's the answer but then if I had fuck you money I don't know we just belong I don't even know If I lived on it, it's a whole different thing.

My backyard backs up to it. I can go down there and hang out with my buddies. But like Shaun just said, if you have fuck you money and it's like the subscription hitting monthly is like Netflix hitting, you're like, well, what the fuck do I care? You know what I mean? But it's never been an ambition of mine. You know what I mean? Like, I want to make enough money so then we can belong to the club. 300K a year, I'm not doing it. But I feel like there was a time that that was an ambition. You want to make enough money, then you belong to the club. like i feel like that and we i mean we have two clubs in town here right so it's well and technically i mean there's other ones there's other ones there's three or the hunters ridge is not as prestigious but like that's a little different that's not necessarily i mean it's not on the smaller thing no but i mean it's a nice fucking place true country clubs and then well whatever but for this area yeah to have two yeah it's got to be a little bit cool yeah and the hunters are cool to do because it's smart there's people who are in that middle bracket right where it's like they want to do it so so i think the elmcrest and cedar rapids country club goes into a different category than like a hunters ridge because they have a pool they have a giant i'm talking more that bar they have like it's like it's you belong to the club because you go there all the time like it's not just golf it's not just golf no no no it is golf tennis um you know food dining you know drinks you go you know you'll go there after work you might have dinner there you might be yeah kids in the pool yeah do whatever you know like you go to the pool and like i know elmcrest has like a

huge fourth of july deal like everyone goes out there for it and i think so does most people just sit over across the street and watch it at the mexican restaurant right right yeah but that's what i did it'd be pretty fucking cool to be there all day at the i know they do like a belly flop contest and everything you know i mean like be a part of that stuff but yeah i don't know i just thought about it today because it's gorgeous you go out there it is the course is unbelievable everything is pristine pristine and beautiful i just was like god is it as cool as it used to be so i would say i don't think it's as cool as it used to be i i think it's still cool i just i think like now new money just doesn't find that attractive even just golf golf isn't golf isn't a status symbol like it used to be i would agree with that but i think that i think there still is a little bit of status wouldn't you get to that level that yeah yeah but you're right you're right you're right that because it's i just think our world's changed a bit in what people want to focus their money in yeah i do think it's cool to have those amenities like even when we talk about our pool membership yeah it feels just a little bit exclusive yeah like that we like we pay for this we can have people we feel like we're a part of a community it's the same concept it really is yeah like it's on a much greater scale and it's only 20 000 a year so you know that's the big thing is the price difference is a whole different ballgame

better yeah but also like if what are you doing it for like i don't know like even if i struggle with this i don't know because i've never made fucking 300 plus thousand dollars a year but if i made that i would i feel like i would still struggle with what's the value of the thing that i'm paying that's because i didn't grow up with that but i also think it's in the circle that you run with right so if we were all together and we were hanging out and we all had memberships you'd like well i want to because then when they want to go to the pool we're going to go there when they say we want to play golf i want to go with those guys you know i mean like i want to be part of that you know what i mean so i think it's in the group that you circle yourself with you're you know what i mean like yeah and some of that comes down to like how sedentary do you want to be like if you want to be here then that's money because that's you're doing all your things here right but then like like you say let's go to the ozarks well i'm gonna buy a place down there and i'm gonna buy a boat these are the ways i'm gonna spend my money when i have bigger money right or i'm gonna be like well i don't i want to have a tiny house here and i want to fly somewhere with all my friends all the time right you know right like yeah it's just how you choose to spend it i think that's the best way to put it like just kind of the circles that you're in of what you guys like to do right so some people do they make the extra they go to the club and it's no big deal but they're there they make the most of it they're they're all you know i mean yeah they're there all week at the pool their dinner their drinks their golfing their tennis whatever all of that stuff they probably make it worth it it's just we just wouldn't i just wouldn't use it enough i don't

think that i would ever and i wouldn't have enough so i think to put a cap on it i don't think it's i think it's cool i still think it's cool i don't think it's as much of a status symbol as it used to be right and i don't think that um i think more people think about how they spend their money when when it comes to that stuff and the value they get versus it used to be like, well, I'm keeping up with the Joneses. Right. There just used to be less to do too. So then that was just like something that just met you on the other level. Now I would argue that a lot of people could be a part of that or they just kind of spend their money in other ways like we do.

You know what I mean? Yeah. All right. Give us your vote. What do you got? Yes or no? I'm going to say no. Just for this day and age. I'm going to say yes. I think it's still cool, but it's not as cool. Yeah. not as cool but i would agree i think it's if that's your circle it's still because it is gorgeous if you do it have fun it's pretty much yeah also if i had like severe fucking money and i was anywhere close to it like i lived nearby i would still fucking do it yeah and like you said that's because i might want to come over here yeah i might want to play it once a year right it's worth the 20 grand i just want to do it i would love to fucking do something like that and just go out there in my fucking basketball shorts and play golf you would i have that exactly it'd be like caddyshack you'd be yeah i want to play a course like that in my fucking basketball shorts and my sleeveless t-shirt right and when they come to talk to you like yeah you don't want me pulling my money from here exactly that's the kind of fucking money i want to exactly oh man that's kind of fucking money we all want to that's the ultimate style of making it so aaron quick sidebar that aaron was looking at some like golfing shit that we were watching the other day it just happened to be on the tv at the bar and they all had like putters that look like happy gilmore shit like because they have the big handled putter and she's like is this real or is this you're like yeah baby it's real now now they all

I'll do that. I want to get the dong putter. No, I haven't. All these people are like, Dad's been golfing his whole life. He's going to love it. They open up his big fucking big old dong. I'd still use it. Nutsack first.
