All right, here we are.
Here we are.
This is two weeks in a row for us, I believe.
I know.
Now, wait.
We went through a stretch where we did it like once a month.
Vacations, people out, people sick, people just couldn't do it.
We may have to shorten this podcast because we'll have like basically nothing to talk
about.
Yeah, two weeks in a row.
That's weird.
You know what?
I saw it.
I know it's Elijah Craig, but I didn't even read the bottle.
What was it?
It tastes very good.
I do know that.
It does taste good.
We'll get to it.
What's the proof on it?
We'll get to it.
One million.
Ooh, I like one million.
Yeah, we'll get to the bourbon.
It doesn't taste very hot.
And it is.
Got a high proof.
What is it?
Oh, well, there it is right there.
There it is right there.
You want to talk about it right now or you want to jump to something else?
Well, no, we can, whatever.
I just want to know what the proof is.
120, what'd you say?
123.8.
Wow.
That does not taste 123 at all.
Yeah.
I would say 105.
But I was going to say 108.
Oh, damn it.
Yeah.
I bet $1.2.
One proof.
Well, it's the second week of June.
Summer is underway.
Can't believe it.
Big rainy day today all over Texas.
Yeah, it's all misty.
It's actually a little humid out there right now.
Oh, yeah, it's like a big nutsack.
Yeah.
But we're still in the spring storms, right?
This is all normal for us.
This is normal.
Yeah.
We need the water.
We need the rain.
Yeah.
It's raining a lot.
Man, it's raining.
I traveled today.
It rained all the way.
All the way there.
And I saw some pockets of, because I was like, I don't know if I want to drive out there
and do my job.
Because I have to look outside for what I'm doing.
But it was magical.
It rained all the way there.
I got there.
And for the hour that I was there, the sun came out.
It was just, you know, blue skies.
Our sunshine coming down.
And really got up there and off.
So you were skipping around.
Man, skipping.
Got back in the car.
I was heading back.
And then all of a sudden, yeah, going back to hell.
Do you still have your rental car?
Same one?
What did you get in the way?
Oh, I got another one.
I got another one.
Yeah, that was a nice one.
The Armada, Armada, the Nissan Armada.
Yeah, it's a big car.
It is a big car.
And it drove very well.
It had a tow package.
I've never driven, I don't think I've driven a car with a tow package before.
So the brake.
That truck has a tow package.
It's got a tow brake.
Yeah, that's adjustable.
You should rent an Armada and rent a boat and pull it around on your job.
Just try it.
Yeah, I mean, don't take the boat anywhere.
I mean, don't just leave it on the trailer.
All right.
Just pull it around.
Well, it was interesting.
My point about bringing up the tow package is that the brake was a little sensitive.
Because I guess they're I guess they are.
Whatever.
The car was great.
My trip out there.
I had a Ford Escape, believe it or not.
It was a nice probably a newer version than what you had.
Oh, absolutely.
It was new.
It was actually pretty nice.
Kind of re-sparked my interest in perhaps getting another Ford Escape.
I mean, I doubt it.
I don't know.
I don't fucking know.
They're in the small SUV market.
You need to get a they're not.
They're not.
You get a Subaru.
Whatever I get.
I'll tell you what, the dream car for me.
I've got two dream cars and I don't really and it's not really a car for say it's more
of a style.
So I like that Subaru cross country.
I think that was called where it's a four wheel drive.
It almost looks like a little station wagon.
Yeah, it's a little wagon.
I think they are all four wheel drives.
That's what they're all wheel drive.
They're all wheel drives.
All wheel drives.
But what I'm looking for is a top with a rack system where I can get one of those tents
that they have these tent platforms that sit up there where you fold it over and a little
pop up tent happens on top of the car.
I know somebody who has it.
Do they like it?
You want me to get some info on it?
Oh, he loves it.
Yeah, well he's a young guy and he takes his girlfriend everywhere.
I forget where he lives right now.
But you're off the ground.
Yeah.
So you're not dealing with snakes and tarantulas.
I mean you could basically, I could pull up anywhere and just kind of.
Like in front of my house?
Just camp.
Yeah, I'd like to do that.
Like in a Walmart parking lot.
Yeah.
I'm a kid.
I wasn't thinking about that.
But yeah.
All you have to do is get out of your car, go get some beer, come back, get back in your
car.
Oh man.
Like getting in line for something new.
Like there's always a line for like the next Star Wars movie.
You could be there.
Just pull your truck right in front.
On the grass.
I went to go see my son in College Station.
By the way, I went to a wedding this past weekend.
I had seen some, I'm going to change the subject real quick because we're talking about going
somewhere.
You know I could have probably just pulled up my car with a little tent in there.
Parked down the parking lot at the hotel.
But it's kind of warm.
I ended up cashing.
It is like a mini RV.
It really is.
Yeah.
I ended up cashing in to go to this event.
I ended up cashing in points for my rental and cashing in points for my hotel.
And I tell you, it was a great feeling to spend like.
Zero dollars.
Well technically it was like four bucks a day for the hotel because of taxes.
And I don't know about the, I think whatever.
It was about the same for the car.
I haven't really checked it.
And then you went to a wedding that had an open bar.
I did.
And you had a little bit of Jack.
I had a lot of Jack.
God bless.
So it was good.
Hey look, I haven't seen my friends in quite some time.
Now we have met Will.
Will he and I have known each other for quite some time.
And in fact we have gone to the Blue Bonnet Beer Festival here in Texas.
We have yet to get back to that.
We've gone, I went two years in a row.
You went two years in a row, right?
I didn't go.
I just went once.
I think you went to you before I did.
I didn't go.
But I think the three of you guys went.
I didn't meet Will.
We meet every year.
No, it was dudes without you.
We meet every year and do it.
Oh I know you do.
We get a luxury box.
Yeah, yeah.
I'm fully aware.
We're VIPs.
I'm not sure if you guys are around.
You never see me.
We have platinum plaques.
But I'm like about 30 feet behind going, damn it.
Damn it.
We walk around with the pretzel necklace and we sample all the beers.
That's when we were heavy into the craft.
And you drink out of the same glass.
I thought that was weird.
No, we don't do that.
Well we shared a straw.
This is one big stein with multiple straws.
Yeah, but on both sides you guys are sipping it at the same time.
And they're really short straws.
And the straw met in the middle.
Touchless nose.
It was a very large following.
It was a very large carafe.
It looked like a hookah where Jeff and I had our long leathery straw.
We were like, suck out of it.
Yeah, that was the last time I was getting upset.
So I went down to Conroe, Texas.
And I just saw a bunch of friends I hadn't seen in probably 30 fucking years, besides
Will.
And it was kind of cool.
That's super cool.
Yeah, it was.
Did you dance?
I did not dance.
We basically went to the ceremony and it was in a church that was, I guess came about in
the 1870s-ish.
I don't think it was necessarily the first church, but it was a well decorated church.
They had a lot of old shit in there.
Did you bring those mugglers to light into the church?
I did not.
And it was Catholic and you had to sit through a Catholic mass.
Yeah, it was full.
And it was a little funny because everyone knew.
Because the first thing I did when I sat down there, I was like, God, these church pews
remind me of when I was a kid.
My brother and I used to sit there and see who could fart the loudest.
You know how you get on those church pews?
You did not.
No, I didn't fart in the ceremony.
But as a kid.
No, I'm saying, really, you were those kids that the parents were just like, why?
And everyone's just staring at them going, God.
Yeah, look at those kids.
Look at those kids.
Four kids behaving.
It was hilarious.
And look at these two idiots.
The entire congregation, most of them laughed.
I mean, can you imagine the adult dads out there?
They're in their 20s, 30s.
Did your dad laugh?
Oh, no, he pinched my my my he pinched the side of me and it stunted the whole fucking
laughing program.
I was laughing, but I had a tear and I wasn't sure if it was from the pain or just because
it was so fucking funny.
It was so loud.
My dad was not a disciplinarian.
But if you misbehaved in church, you did get the belt.
That was that was the one place where you don't you don't misbehave.
And so I'm amazed you didn't get.
Well, the church was pretty nice.
I mean, it was very old school church.
I love it was like it was well maintained, but it wasn't big.
It wasn't a big church.
I mean, it had two rows on the side.
They had a cool archways.
It did.
I think I'll probably forge you guys a nice photos of it.
Yeah.
The stage.
It looked like old Masonic kind of stuff in there.
You know what?
Did you explore?
I did.
I went around.
Remember, I showed you the catacombs.
I wanted to come up on the stage area because they had one of those stage.
Sir, can you get off the altar?
Yeah.
Well, I'm sorry.
Am I on the.
See if there's a trap door.
One of these big altars that had like he picks up the stanchion.
Bang, bang.
I see another movie.
I know what I'm doing.
There's Cripps down there.
I know it.
Yeah.
So if I could find the cemetery for whatever.
So I get it.
I sent you guys a picture of that little twisted horn thing.
I was kind of what's this from?
You're like, it's a Yemenite.
And I'm like, what the fuck?
And I Google it's all sitting in the church.
And of course, my phone's not working.
It has like no bars.
You know, and so I didn't understand that at all.
Why did you send a picture of a horn?
Well, I was asking what it was.
Well, I said it was a marmoset.
I know.
Oh, a marmoset.
Okay.
But where did it come from?
It was on the wall in the church and they what the history is.
And mind you, this church is old.
So they said they used to use it for musical instruments.
The horn.
Oh, all right.
And it was an it was a horn of an antelope.
Like a bugle.
Well, it was I think it was in the antelope family.
It looked like an impala antler to me.
Sort of.
I had no clue.
Yeah.
I don't even think I weighed in.
Did I weigh in on that?
No, you stayed out of it.
Yeah, probably better that way.
All right.
So it was it's a S-H-O-F-A-R shofar.
The word shofar is Hebrew and in our modern Bible in its most mostly called a trumpet.
There it is.
Like a bugle.
Looks like a pipe.
Yeah, it was it was very circular spiral kind of thing.
That's what I thought it was an impala because it had the red rings on it.
The ribs.
See, some of those definitely look more like a pipe than a horn.
Well, even look down here.
Looks like there's some church person blowing it.
Tootin' the horn.
Well, I thought it was I thought it was interesting as hell.
That is interesting.
I really enjoy seeing old shit like this.
I know.
You know, and I tell you, when I when I have to do my travels, I really like today.
I was I was in Atlanta today, Atlanta, Texas, in which is just with the two miles of where
I was.
What was that Bloomberg?
I think it was called Atlanta, Texas.
It's like a mile from Arkansas and two miles from Louisiana.
It's right there.
You know, it's right as far as you can get.
And it just has there's hardly anyone there.
In fact, it says population 241.
I was like, really?
Atlanta was like 2400.
You know, and they don't have I was like trying to find somewhere to eat.
And in fact, they do the superintendent, the wherever I went, the guy said, yeah, you like
chicken?
I was like, yeah.
He's like, well, they just built a new Chick-fil-A.
I was like, yeah, not my bag.
No, nothing local.
Yeah.
I was like, well, I mean, did you hear about the new CEO of Chick-fil-A?
What do you mean stop?
I am not going to boycott Chick-fil-A. I don't care.
Well, I don't care.
Well, I don't go to Chick-fil-A. I know.
But just the fact.
Hold on.
I don't go to Chick-fil-A. I don't.
I think it's I think it's too salty.
And I try my best not to go to fast foods.
Period.
Well, that's a good good.
That's a good.
You know, and when I do, it's it's like it's it's very rare.
It's like Burger King double whopper.
Oh, dude, I'm fat.
You know, it's so it's just like I try to make conscious efforts to avoid certain things.
And I and every day the list grows.
I do the Chick-fil-A. It's just high in salt.
Is it?
I haven't figured out whether a fried chicken sandwich is worse than a burger.
I mean, the calories, if you look at the calories, it being a fried chicken sandwich makes it
bad because a burger isn't isn't.
Well, you have to look at whole thing.
Dropped in a bucket of oil.
Well, I think if you look at it, if you get your burgers aren't real meat, if you get
your mayonnaise on it, right?
I chick flay doesn't have mayonnaise on it, but right.
But they get the Chick-fil-A sauce, which is like a mixture.
Well, I don't put that on.
No, regular Chick-fil-A sandwich is chicken and pickle.
Yeah, that's true.
Don't they have a little lettuce?
They got a little piece of lettuce.
That's the Supreme or whatever they call it.
Embredding.
Yeah, bread, pickle and meat.
I like Chick-fil-A. Don't get me wrong.
I enjoy it.
Like when someone brings it home, I'll eat it for sure.
But I'm not going to go out of my way.
I just bought a Sonic, for example, this past week.
My daughter, Mal, she was they were they wanted, hey, we're going to go to Sonic.
You want something?
And I'm like, no.
And I was like, you know what?
Give me a foot long Coney.
Get me a burger.
I don't want fries.
I don't want anything.
I want a burger.
I want a burger because, you know, it's quite a burger.
I got I got a regular burger.
I don't know if it was a double or not, but I'll tell you what, it did not taste good
to me.
Yeah.
I don't think Sonic travels.
Yeah, personally, I don't think it travels.
I like the burgers you make.
It doesn't make it to the burgers over at your house this past weekend.
I like the burgers we make at the house.
I don't like the fast food burgers anymore.
In fact, I'm scared to go back to water burger because water burgers like the staple in burgers.
And if it doesn't taste good, you're going to be ruined.
I'm already upset because they don't have the stupid, you know, sauteed vegetables.
It changes the burger for me.
I'm devastated.
I still got I get I get to grill jalapenos on it.
Just carry your own little saute pan.
Yes.
Little cooking butane lighter thing in the car.
And I'll just have you up a batch of I'll just have a baggie.
I'll say, can I come back here and saute some vegetables here?
And then you're not going back because you can't get sauteed.
I didn't say I wasn't going back.
I'm just upset because my favorite burger of all time has been tainted.
Good grief.
Hey, by the way, guys, it's dudes like us.
June 13th, 2023.
I'm Sean.
I am Paul and I am Jeff.
And I'll continue with this whole problem you have with the sauteed veggies.
I don't get it.
It just tastes great.
I love it.
That was my favorite thing to put on that burger.
You know how they say making your way.
And I did.
And they took it away from that is not that's what is that?
The Burger King.
That's subway.
Well, no, no pickles.
Hold the letter.
Shut up, lady.
You upset us.
No, hold on.
That wasn't it.
Make it your way.
Isn't that your way?
Wendy's.
They definitely have it like what a burger your way or, you know, blah, blah, blah.
There it is.
Burger King.
Have it your way.
OK.
Well, OK.
Well, what is that?
Bring up the Whataburger slogan because it's something like that.
I want to hear it.
It's like have all the way the Burger King thing.
Are we going to hear the song?
No, you're not hearing this.
Well, I don't think they have a song for a water burger.
Well, they don't have a song.
Well, I know.
That's why I'm saying it.
Does it doesn't make sense to me?
Let's see.
All right.
So you got the old and new.
So I guess they're going to do a little comparison.
Well, so back then.
Oh, my God.
That was nice.
Oh, well, what hearing it was all like have is now gone.
I think the free soul just fell out.
The frequency was just right.
Yeah.
That 1970s transistor radio sound.
Yeah.
Oh, I don't know.
Should we edit that out or leave it in?
I don't want somebody to wreck if they're listening in the car.
Wake him up.
I drive these long distances.
Sometimes I need a little.
I open my ears actually hurt.
All right.
Well, he's seemingly play without making our ears bleed.
Wow, that's an old one.
Do you realize she's a grandma somewhere?
I don't think they have those hats anymore.
Oh, wow.
Yeah.
I got it.
I got to be honest.
I don't like Burger King.
I think that I don't mind Burger King.
The smoke.
I think I've been there twice in my whole life.
So it's the same rhythm.
Wow.
It's cheesy.
It was.
I like the original better.
That looks like the lead singer to the Fugees.
No, he's in jail.
No, I don't like the Burger King.
I don't like that smoke taste.
I don't know if it's natural.
If they sprayed the shit out there, but flame broils.
Yeah, the flame broils now.
That's I think it really is.
I see a bunch.
I don't know.
I see a bunch of smoke coming out.
I don't know.
It's over that little rack that goes over the flames.
I don't know.
But I do.
I will tell you that I don't like it.
And I think that whatever that flame is coming out, the smoke coming out of the top of Burger
King, it reminds me of the starter logs that you put on outside when you want to get a
fire going.
It smells like a burger.
I mean, Burger King burger.
It doesn't smell like when we grill out burger.
It has its own distinct smell.
What a burger.
Just like you like it.
You weren't even close.
I was.
No, it's the same concept.
No, but now they say, oh, but Paul, you can't have it the way you like it because we don't
offer that anymore.
Well, that's because there's they got it.
We build it bigger.
It's because it's because of Covid bastards.
It was it was during Covid.
Anyway, you didn't finish your story.
So you saw he's like, do you like chicken?
They have a chick.
You're like, oh, hell no.
I hate chick.
Not their executive is a is a pride loving, blah, blah, blah.
No, it wasn't.
Had anything.
I don't think it had anything to do with pride.
I think it had to do with the black reparations.
And he was on some sort of interview and he was talking about how he was like he went
and did something to some dude's feet.
And the guy looked at the black guy was looking at him like, what the fuck are you doing?
Oh, that's right.
It was embarrassing.
We watched a video of that.
It was washing his feet.
Yes.
I think people get really confused about the whole point of the washing of the feet thing.
Yeah, but you know, it isn't the idea of washing somebody's feet is not to say sorry for what
you did to them.
I mean, I'm going to hold you up on a pedestal.
It is just to serve others.
Back in those days, I get it like a way of serving others.
But the way they're doing it now is awkward and weird.
And I hate it.
It's because it's different.
If you want to serve others, I think the motivation is different.
Give them a candy bar.
You know, I mean, come on.
It's not it's not the same.
Nobody does that anymore.
I know.
Hey, you want to hold you up for your vehicle?
No, but you are irrelevant.
You don't need a boogie whip because you don't have a horse.
It's not relevant for the time.
So it was this weird.
Chick-fil-A. I'm not against them.
I just don't eat them because I think they're high in salt.
So where'd you go?
I end up going to this Mexican restaurant.
Chicken.
I went to I went to a mom and pop restaurant downtown Atlanta, Texas.
And it was one of two restaurants.
They had an Italian one and they had a Mexican one.
And I walked into the Mexican place and there was like two people in there.
And I was like, do you have a bar?
And he says, no.
I said, do you serve beer?
He says, no.
I was like, you paused.
He's like, well, we have some that we give away.
But I was like, well, I don't want any beers for your safe.
I just want to sit up at the bar.
So I sat down and had a little I had a chicken entree.
I thought it was chicken beluga or something weird like that.
I had like with extra salt.
Beluga is a whale.
It sounded like that.
I forget it.
Chaluga. I don't know.
But whatever it was.
Do you eat a basket of salty chips?
I had a couple of chips.
But you know what? I can tell you, I'm I'm I'm weary on eating foods now.
I'm afraid of foods.
I'm afraid of the facts of the oils that these chips are cooked in that I don't think that they're healthy.
I think that people get confused or people don't really look into what are they cooking my food in?
And they just don't think about it.
And I think that restaurant owners, they buy the five gallon drums of whatever the cheapest shit is.
And you know what?
A place like that, baby.
Well, but like all Mexican restaurants, like McDonald's uses peanut oil.
Whatever.
And so does Chick-fil-A.
I'm just saying that I am the older I get, the more conscientious I am of things that I'm starting to put in my body.
You're supposed to. You're not supposed to eat the same shit you did with me.
My body, man, my body's different now.
Like quality bourbon.
Yeah, well, the quality bourbon is good.
I enjoy the bourbon.
You know, that's that's you know, I was almost like I was so hung over that day when I came back from the wedding.
I'm going to vomit.
Oh, my God. I was at your house because I come back on I drive out to.
We live in Frisco, Texas, and I went down to Conroe, Texas.
That light just turned on.
Was that a little remote or a timer?
It's a Wi-Fi light bulb.
Oh, so we I went to Conroe, Texas.
It's about three, three and a half hours.
And I drove down there and the way back, I visited my son, which kind of sparked up the thing we're talking about having a little tent on top, which I will probably never do.
But, you know, I swung by there.
So I went there, hung over after the wedding Sunday morning.
I get up, hung over and I go to the breakfast they have at the hotel, which is lame.
But, you know, I had a little bit of it, but I couldn't really eat.
I had like two gallons of coffee showered drove to go see Preston.
We went to Alpac Steakhouse.
I ordered the biggest steak they had.
And it turns out that and Preston orders this other steak.
It wasn't as big, but his was his the meat on it was bigger than mine because it was leaner.
So I was like, damn, did you get a bone in rib eye or something like that?
Yes. Yeah. You don't want to.
Well, those are good steaks. Yeah, it was good.
But they're very, but they count, but they count the bone as part of the weight.
So you have to factor that in. Yeah, it was a little disappointing because it didn't taste as good as I wanted to, because normally you get it.
You know, it's got a lot of salt in it and it tastes real good.
This one was just I mean, it tasted good.
Don't get me wrong. I'm not slamming out back, but it was just it was a little disappointing.
So anyway, so I ate there and then I still hung over.
Wasn't feeling good.
Had like a two big old bottles of club soda and then I drive back and Terrence, I we're going over to Paul's house.
We're going to go sit outside. Oh, my God.
I just want to lay down. I feel good.
You say that every time I have a I'm not.
I guess you come in and you're like, man, when Terrence said we're coming over, I said, I just want to lay down.
You say every time you come over to my house.
Honestly, you well, I'm always you have you have a different set of batteries on you. You can push through stuff and just do it.
I really can't. Oh, I got up this morning and I went by.
I went up motorcycle driving and I came back and fixed my fence and then I rebuilt my motor and then I climbed on top my house and adjust my solar panels.
And I came downstairs and we were I was like, God damn.
I went to lunch. I got out of bed, took a shit.
I didn't feel like going anywhere. You know, I do.
I do. I have a motor.
I don't know. It's crazy.
I'm glad I have this. I have this thing about wanting to feel productive.
I can't I and it's not good, actually, because you need to just have downtime and lay down on the couch and veg.
Well, you do that. I do that.
I do that. But on days where I could literally just be lazy all day, I don't.
I don't consider being lazy. I consider it resting.
Yeah, no. I mean, I'm saying it's probably good. Good to do that.
Well, Sunday, I needed to rest. Right.
Well, you didn't. You came over to. Well, he just you just thought that you didn't do anything.
But yeah, you didn't do anything. You did. I chilled out.
I mean, I'm glad I came over. But I mean, I was tired. I was miserable.
I really was. I was kind of like I was like I felt I was in a fog.
I was like, oh, and then Tara was kind of like, you know, she saw you.
She's like, we need to leave. Did she? Yes.
Yes. So I looked at. Yeah, you look terrible. Oh, wow.
All right. Oh, I didn't notice. I don't know if that's good or bad.
Well, Tara noticed. She's like, yeah, he's not doing well.
We need to go. Yeah. But your wife talked to you about leaving.
Yeah, she did. I was happy. I want to turn to stay. I want her to have fun.
I mean, I had the women were all in the pool. I had my own armada.
I was driving. Very nice. Yeah, it was nice. Yes.
I love those small towns, but you know, the sad thing about the small towns is they are drying up.
I know they've been drying up for a long, long time. Yeah.
But people who are bad there never stay. No, especially out in East Texas.
It's a bad. There's some space.
There's some places up in Ohio that are really bad with heroin. Yeah.
And math in East Texas, I believe, is bad with the math scene.
Dude, if you so are they so bored that they just like they just they just do drugs?
I just don't think they have anything down there. It's going to do.
What is the motivation? What would be the reason why you get on math?
I think it's like just a sheer boredom product of your environment.
I think it's there because everybody else is doing it type of thing. Perhaps.
I think I mean, there's not a lot going on. People don't have a lot of money, you know,
which is odd because I'm thinking drugs are probably cost a lot of money.
Well, I was going to say, is math cheap? I don't make your own, don't you?
Well, I don't know. But they are.
Is that what they made in breaking bad? Yeah, they had an RV out in the desert.
Yeah, I don't think they make math out there. But, you know, well, they may.
I don't know. But the thing is that, you know, once you become addicted to it, you need it.
So they may have been like, you know, well, Johnny does it. Let me try it.
Oh, yeah. Now I'm hooked and now I need to go and do things to make money to get it.
And that's heroin, too. Heroin is highly addictive. Heroin is bad.
That's up in there. So there's some there's a bad swath up in southern Ohio, southeastern Ohio.
That's that's really bad with her. Apparently heroin trafficking.
Oh, so East Texas is bad. East Oklahoma is bad. Math.
I don't know. It's sad. It's like rural areas get sacked with these these problems.
Yeah. And again, I know I said that a couple of times, but I mean, I think it's maybe there just isn't much else to do.
I think that may be part of it. I think honestly, it does. I mean, I don't know.
I grew up in a small town. It wasn't a farming town. I grew up in a small town.
There wasn't a whole lot to do. So you'd hang out. You just drive, drive and have a beer and a tailgate.
Right. Or something like that.
We just drove and then we'd end up at a restaurant somewhere to eat. Right.
Right. You know, we're old enough to drink or anything like that.
So you just you just don't do anything. You just drive around in the car.
There's a lot of closed down, dilapidated little strip malls and gas stations and drug dens.
Man, it's it. You know, I just I just wish I had more money.
I could invest even even when I went to college station where our boys are staying right by their apartment.
They have they have several buildings that are just nasty and dilapidated.
They're renovating one because it's a staple in the city, I guess.
That bar. Yeah, the one that kind of looks like the bottle caps.
It's a old wood Dixie chick. Yeah, it's Dixie chicken.
It kind of looks like it. Yeah, it is the the original in that area.
It was the original chicken place, Dixie chicks, whatever it's called.
And then the bottle cap alley chicken because it's got all the gate. Pardon.
Northgate. No, no. OK. You talk about the chicken oil company type of thing. Yes.
OK. Yeah. Well, it looks like old reclaimed wood on the outside.
I mean, it looks kind of cool. And I was just thinking, man, if I had money, I could rehab some of these places and I'd make money on it.
I would absolutely make money. In fact, you know, I'm just thinking even like when Austin goes to school there in the next year or two,
you know, I'm thinking instead of renting a place, I think I'm just going to buy a house down there, you know,
and rent out the other rooms and buy it as a as an investment property, perhaps.
I don't know. I just don't I don't see that's that's what I'm leaning towards right now.
In fact, I'm leaning on that pretty hard.
The more and more I think about it, there's a lot of people that do that, you know, but it's just it's just the cities.
They're they're just I don't know where all these kids go and where they are. Plus, the population is are we in a decline with the population?
People are moving somewhere. Well, the the the the stat I heard was there's three illegal immigrants for one birth here in the United States.
So I know that I remember Elon Musk bringing up that one of the biggest things that we have headed our way,
if we don't solve the problem is a negative growth population. Correct.
So because people these days aren't having kids. That's right.
The younger generations are thinking, well, there's multiple reasons.
But one of the ridiculous ones are they don't want to stress the world any more than we already have as a human race and and the climate change.
And and it's just a horrible world to bring a kid into. That's the white mentality.
And white liberal mentality is selfish, in my opinion.
But anyway, if you don't have kids, that's fine. But for that reason, I think it's kind of silly.
Yeah, I just don't want to be a silly reason. I mean, if you feel like I want to I want a career, I want to get to the top.
I don't want to be burdened by kids because I want to travel, blah, blah, blah, whatever.
Yeah, that's fine. Well, like me right now, I don't want another dog because I don't want to be tied down, tied down to dealing with a dog when I travel.
I just want to be able to. Hey, let's go. Right. And go.
I don't have to find a border or anything like that.
Well, see, we we thought about that and we're like, well, we're just going to dump our dogs off at your house.
And then we're going to, you know, go, go have fun, tons and tons of fun.
So doesn't that work, too? If you need to, we can do that.
I'm just kidding. Well, you have to solve your dog's poop problem.
I think we have the puppy's learning.
Is she shitting on a tree? No. So dudes like us experience having dogs that when you first got a dog experience in the poop factor and the pee factor.
So what's the what's the turnout? Did they?
Well, I mean, what's interesting is that we got this dog.
I mean, it was it was, you know, somebody that was at the school, you know, at the cross crosswalk.
And my wife was talking to her and she's like, this is a lady that like gets dogs ready for adoption.
But when they're like too young for adoption and so she trains them and, you know, all sorts of stuff and kind of makes them ready.
Like they're already I mean, hell, this one apparently was like ringing some sort of doorbell to let them know that she needed to go out.
And I was like, oh, score. This is going to be really easy.
Yeah, not so not quite. And I have a doggy door and she was like, oh, then it's going to be even easier.
She's going to go right out the doggy door. She was sitting in the front room. She was sitting in the living room.
She was peeing all over the place. I was like, OK, something has gone horribly wrong with what this dog apparently already learned.
Right. But, you know, you're just you know, so we got your crate, right?
You didn't need your crate anymore. And that has been a godsend because we put her in there at night, take her out, immediately take her outside.
I mean, you know, back to standard puppy training stuff. Right.
And then you give them treats when you when they, you know, poop and pee and all that kind of stuff.
So anyway, I think we've got it under control. There's probably going to be a couple more accidents.
But at this point, she's she's with the program. So that's good.
Anyway, she's cute. She's cute little little puppy. She had very large ears for her head.
Very large puppy. Yes. Six months old. And it's going to be just a mutt, isn't she?
It's a black mouthed cur.
Yeah, I've never heard of that. Yeah, I had neither. And she looked just like the other ones.
Is that a real thing? So I yeah. Yeah. Well, no, that was on the paperwork.
It's not a black mouthed cur. So like K.E.R.R. No, C.U.R.R. It's also known as a southern cur.
Yeah. Or southern black mouth cur. Yeah. So if you. Yeah. Or a yellow black mouth cur.
And medium to large size breed. It kind of looked like the cur type. Oh, it's only one R. C.U.R. Yeah.
Anyway, that's what that's what was on the paperwork. So I think she's going to be a big dog.
They're kind, they're loyal, they're fearless, active, protective and trainable.
They get up to 400 pounds for 50 is what I read. Cool. Yeah.
These dogs have a lifespan between 12 and 15 years. That's good. Yeah.
You watch your dogs live about 12 at least. Anyway, the dog's getting along.
I have the other six, six year old. I think black mouthed brush them once a week to remove the dirt from their coat.
Yeah, we watch them once a year and like the health care common health problems, like all medium to large dogs, the black mouth cur is at a risk of arthritis in hip dysplasia.
Yeah, that's what got that's what got Lady. Yeah. Well, and you know, you know, Sasha's got the missing back leg. Right.
So I'm imagining she's going to have all sorts of problems after getting hit by the car.
And well, I think just the one leg is going to cause a couple of years. She's going to be a mess.
I know. I just get her the little training wheels in the back. Yeah.
A little wagon. Oh, dude, she'd love it. And go ahead and remove the good leg and put it on.
She just, you know, when you want to go for a walk or something to put on the wheels.
Well, how does she get to the doggy door on that? She's like getting stuck.
The wheels are stuck. And I'll be like, Shelly, damn it. Can you let the dog out? Bang. I'm trying to get out.
Maybe you could have an automatic door in the back. I don't know.
She I mean, she gets around pretty good. She does. And they wrestle and they wrestle and tumble and jump on each other.
And I saw that they were frolicking. They were just all over each other. It's kind of fun. It's kind of funny.
Anyway, dogs are great. Yeah, very similar to to your new dog. A little little different.
I think this one down here looks the most like her. But yeah, there's quite a bit of differences in all these pictures.
So anyway, she's cute dog. So see you are, which is interesting.
So, you know, what is the what is the the entomology of that? Interesting.
Well, I put her on twenty three and me and she comes mainly from from Cro Magnum.
Black Mouth Cur a one on one breed profile canine of mine and whatever.
All right. Let's just move on. You should look at the top 10 dog breeds for for like residential.
You have like families. God. Lately, Shelly's been watching the stupid dog shows on TV like the Westminster dog.
Yes. Well, they parade them around and I'm like, they grab their nuts.
And I honestly couldn't care less. But she's like, Oh, my God, Paul, look at this one. Oh, my God, Paul, look at this one.
One after another. And they, you know, they were double negative. You know how those, you know, they poodles or care less.
Does it couldn't? I could not care less. I could care less. I could not care less. I could care more.
I could care less or I could not care less. I could not care less than I do, which means it's at the bottom of the scale for caring for caring.
Correct. I think it's correct. But you know what people do say incorrectly?
I know we can change your subject here is irregardless. I say that word every now and then. That is not a word.
It is. You say it. Well, irregardless. Well, it's I guess it would be a word if you say it, but it doesn't make it inappropriate.
Like something like are correct. You just say regardless. You don't say irregardless. How do you know this?
I I gobbled it. You gobbled it. Yeah. You gobbled it. Yeah. I don't know. I don't know if it's appropriate or not.
But I do catch myself saying that word every now and then. Really? I don't. Yeah, I don't say that.
Well, it says irregardless is a word sometimes used in place of regardless or irrespective,
which has caused controversy since the early 20th century through the word appeared in print early as 1795.
See, it is a word. It's just not used very often. It's incorrectly. But is it grammatically correct?
No, it isn't. It's not considered to be a real word in most dictionaries and it should be avoided in most dictionaries.
Except for academic writing, it should not be used. However, if you want to use it on some sort of CNN show.
There you go. Sure. I do catch it. But you've told me that before and I tried not to say it. Yeah.
But I still slips out. Before we jump into the whole number of 10, 15 dogs, we're talking about the decline of population.
And that's you mentioned about Elon Musk. Now, we do know that China, China's went down from like, I don't remember what it was.
It was like one point four billion. Maybe it was more down to see it was one point four billion to seven or fifty seventy one.
They were below a billion. China. No, well, they've not yet.
China's forecast to lose half almost half of its population by 2100 by the end of the century.
Yeah. And it all started with the whole one child thing. Correct.
And so what they were doing basically, if you have a girl, you don't want girls. You killed it. Killed it. Yes.
Yeah. They got a bunch of boys. They had inside. So there's a bunch of men out there with no women to procreate.
They are whole villages in China with no it's crazy. No women. I should have laughed, but I did.
But there was a there was an Asian film Kung Fu show on and you've got Clan A fighting Clan B. Right. All right.
Well, part of the fight, they go in there, they're like slicing a dice and kicking it.
And all this cool choreography and stuff. Well, there was this little style, Bruce Lee style.
And it was like, you know, crouching tiger, hidden dragon kind of thing.
And they come up with this little cocoon wrapped baby and the the I don't know, somehow the baby's thrown.
And the guy that was the invader catches it and examines it really quick to see if it was a female or a male because there's only two genders.
So female or male. And he recognizes that it was a female.
He takes the baby and slices it up and throws it in a well. Oh, well, the well was in the movie.
Well, I mean, I'm sure it's a prop. I know. But yeah, in the movie.
So he was kind of like, you know, he tossed it into the well, you know, and it was it was just an odd thing.
Well, we bring that up, you know, and I was like so like vulgar.
That's what they that's what they do for you. That's what it was, man.
It was what they call that when you extinguish or genocide.
Yeah, it's a genocide. Infant side infanticide.
Yeah, Lord, man. I know the way you said it makes it sound weird or something.
Why? Yeah, it's an infant side.
No, it's not infant side. It's infanticide.
It sounds like you're applying some sort of spray, some kind of ointment.
This sounds kind of sad. I was counting.
It's like a fantasy, erotic word or something. It's weird.
It's a fantasy. Yeah, it's an anal lubricant.
Yeah, China, China, they say is going to be in trouble in the next off the end of the century.
Not 75 years. Well, you know, I think that they did it on purpose.
You know, I think that they're they're in trouble, man.
They and they recognize it. I think they recognize I think there was it was a it's here's the thing.
I think they did it on purpose. We've got open borders down there.
We've got lots of China men coming across the border.
I lots and lots and lots. I know. And that concerns me. I was like, I mean, you have to assume that anybody coming over from China, it's not easy to defect from China.
So if these numbers are increasing and they're increasing by like 233 percent over last month, 400 percent over last month.
I mean, there's still tiny numbers compared to other countries. Chinese nationalists.
They got what I'm saying. And I'm like, wait a second.
Are they coming over because they're agents and they're basically building sleeping cells and I mean, that are going to be called to strike?
Well, I mean, it's easy to do right now. Well, why would the Middle East be doing that, too?
Well, maybe they are. Maybe they are. That's just the whole thing.
And I think that we've forgotten. We learned nothing about 9-11.
We were dumping into the politics part. But the whole thing is China is giving tons and tons of money to our politicians.
I know. Tons and tons.
I mean, we I mentioned earlier before we started the podcast that the dude from the Fugees just got sentenced for 20 years in jail for accepting 20 million dollars from China so that he could provide campaign contributions to Obama, Barack Obama.
And this was a pop band, an American pop band. The Fugees had Lauren Hill singing in it.
She was the singer. Right. And they sang that.
And the Roberta Flack song remade that Roberta Flack song. So what killing me softly.
So I'm just trying to understand how stupid can you be?
Oh, that guy right there in the middle.
There's a picture. I don't know if that was him, but there's a picture of the guy who got arrested and or was going to jail.
But he was in a picture with Michelle Obama and Wycliffe Goldberg.
So he was drinking the Kool-Aid and he was so into it that he just didn't even think about like it being illegal.
Yeah, I mean, I can almost see it happening.
You know, they're kind of like, hey, I'm going to give you this money.
Just go. You know what? You want to make a contribution to Barack Obama?
Hey, I'll give you some money. These are the Jersey Channels.
And he thinks he's doing a good thing. He's like, ah, dude, Barack, you're not going to believe it.
Did he pass it on? I just got China to give me 20 million dollars.
Twenty years in jail. So evidently he passed it on. But the whole thing is that I'm believe why aren't we hearing about this anywhere else?
Yeah, I haven't heard a word about this. I think it was on Breitbart report.
And that's all you're going to hear. You're not going to hear it on any of the other news.
How do you say that Breitbart Breitbart Breitbart Breitbart?
Yeah, he's dead. He died to young to get a heart attack. Yeah. Yeah.
It was a while ago. Yeah. A long time ago. Crazy.
But killing me softly. Yeah. Twenty years in jail. Suck it. You know, then you got what else? The thing?
God bless it was on the tip of my tongue and it just fell off.
The Biden conspiracies. Those are things that are happening bribery.
Yeah, they're just coming out everywhere. I think I think I don't know.
I think it's I think it's going to gain some steam.
But I say that. But then the DOJ is not going to do anything. You know, right?
I mean, hell, they're threatening to take the director of DOJ, you know, in not impeach him, but contempt, contempt of
Senator Court or whatever. Yeah, because, you know, they've got doc. Oh, no, that was the FBI.
It's crazy. The DOJ, the DOJ, the FBI. I mean, who else is involved in this shit?
You were talking about last podcast. The guy from CIA was over in Singapore.
And I mean, what is happening there with all of our agencies and and and people who are supposed to be impartial
and protecting the there's there's no accountability. And you know what?
There's no leader. There's no clear leader. There's no authority, you know, and and every time I think someone's going to be the authority.
Like, I'll give you an example like Will Barr, William Barr. I was thinking that he was former attorney general. Yeah.
So I was thinking, well, he's going to be the authority on stuff and he's not. He slanted, you know.
It's just like what he starts talking positive about Trump and then next he's not.
And it's like, dude, you're totally drinking the Kool-Aid. If you don't think for one second that that election.
I mean, there's no proof, there's no evidence to it.
You know, but you can't sit there and say for fact that it wasn't there was no shenanigans going on.
Right. And his words were to think that there was anything going on is absolutely preposterous.
And for him to say that is kind of like saying there's no aliens in the world, in the universe.
How could you make a statement like that? You don't know.
Oh, there's always in every election, like whether it doesn't matter who won it.
That's been going back to what Kennedy won. Exactly.
If it's Democrat wanted a Republican wanted or there's always been fraud in the back of the 60s.
Yeah. The question is, Joe Kennedy was having dead people vote.
Right. The question is how blatant is the start and did the did the fraud affect the outcome of the election?
That's really what you have to ask, because there's no question that there is fraud. Correct.
There are people using, like you said, dead people's ballots. Right.
Ballot harvesting ballot. Well, I mean, that's legal. It is legal. That's part of the problem is legal.
But anyway, well, you know what?
Trump said I'm going to go ahead and get ahead of this and I'm going to start ballot harvesting.
Hey, if it's legal, you got to beat you. Use all your tools. Yeah.
Beat them at their own game. I mean, I think that's a smart move.
I mean, I hate it because it kind of looks like here we are complaining about the Democrats doing it.
And now the Republicans are going to do it. But, you know, you'd be stupid not to if it's legal.
So anyway, it's something that kind of bugged me a little bit, Jeff.
And I heard today from my job from somebody, not my company, but from somebody I met while doing my job about the about the supply chain.
You were talking about like Adderall. So it extends even further than Adderall.
Certain medicines were starting to become deficient and even the supply chain for like I was looking in for my job.
And they were like, well, to get the materials to do the stuff is going to be take like, you know, eight to 12 months to get it.
That's how far out they are to do this. And I was like, God bless.
And he was just like, yeah, it's never been so worse ever.
You know, we had specific people out there that specialize in their job.
Like, yeah, this is crazy. It's never been this bad.
Now, is it all unwinding like they're having to unwind what happened?
You know, China's still hurting over there. COVID. China's still hurting with COVID over there.
They're still port issues like aren't there still like, you know, I mean, there's like multiple those multiple.
Well, there's a lot. Yeah, there's multiple sections of the whole supply chain. Right. Right. Right.
And I did see that somebody is threatening to strike again. Oh, God.
It's either the ports or the truckers again. I can't remember.
That's like in the last couple of days that I saw the headline. That's wonderful.
Shit all over the American. Yeah. Well, the American consumer.
What we need to be prepared for, because so much is made over in China that if this whole whole conflict with China proceeds and progresses like a military conflict, if it just keeps getting worse and worse, shut us off worse.
Well, it hurts them, too.
So it's like mutually assured destruction almost because they stop getting their money. So their economy dies. Right. Essentially.
And we are left with I can't get medicine. Right. Because the bulk of our medicines made over there.
Didn't didn't we learn a lesson during COVID on that deal? I mean, did I know Trump was like, we're bringing that stuff back.
Well, we're talking about, you know, it was the baby formula was the big thing. You know, we're making baby formula and they were just like, well, we need to start making our own baby formula.
Then we started making the baby formula. Guess what happened? So we have we fire broke out, you know, planes falling out of the fucking sky and hitting chicken coops, you know, and you got bird flu and you've got the mad cow disease and you've got all these outside.
That just like what the fuck didn't there was a run on eggs or something? I mean, what happened with eggs? Well, that's because they had to kill millions and millions and millions of chickens because of some bird bird flu.
Yeah. So they had to like torch them. But chickens grow extremely fast. That's why it recovers quickly. Right. Cost money. Obviously. Yeah. I need to go. Yeah.
But then also there's this conspiracy where like people were making these videos and they're like, I changed my feed and oh yeah, they suddenly now my I you had Marina Marina was supplying bird feed for a lot of the farmers and stop playing eggs.
Like when I say a lot, I mean like 80 percent of the farmers out there were buying a specific brand. I may be misspeaking, but it was something everyone knew like Prima.
And yeah, they stopped producing eggs and they were like, we couldn't figure out what the hell's going on. We should we switched to like a regular corn and within a week they started producing eggs again.
And these are people that are really raising the same type of chickens like small scale. Right. Not like gigantic chicken farms. But yeah, for 20 years.
They're they've never seen this before. In my opinion, in my opinion, I think to help solve this illegal immigration thing, pull that manufacturing out of China, go down to South America, Central America, Honduras, Guatemala, Ecuador, build there so they don't want to leave to come here.
Yeah, I would solve that opportunity. That's why they're coming here. Correct. But like you can't go to Venezuela because they're freaking communist dictator. So they're out. Yeah, but we can buy our Dominion voting machines from Venezuela.
Didn't they? They just I think they said that that wasn't true. That's not true. Well, I don't know either. Remember, there was a massive settlement between Fox News, Fox News, billion dollars.
And by Tucker's out there. Right. And who else got let go some big, big executive producer to his producer and a big executive for Fox. Right. For Fox. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Tucker Carlson, they just he had his Twitter show. His third one. I haven't seen it yet. I've heard either. Third one came out tonight.
Fox came out and said the cease and assist. Yes. You know, hey, man, you're not allowed to do shit until 2024 until after the elections. That's crazy. It is, isn't it? It's just like what? What if it's in his contract? Yeah.
So he's not allowed to talk at all. If it's in his contract, he's not allowed to be on a streaming service of any kind.
I think that's where it is. It's a non compete, but is a streaming service qualified as that? I think that's kind of how he's trying to get around it. That's the loophole. He's trying to get around. I like it. I like the fact that he's not a streaming service. It's a post.
I mean, are this Facebook considered an extreme service? You're streaming videos. Well, I mean, are you Facebook Live? But if you post a video that's not streaming.
Or is it? Sure. Yeah, I guess news. That whole technology is you're streaming the video, right? I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. It's not up to me to decide. But but the question is, is it a streaming a paid for profit streaming service? Is he getting paid for that? I don't think he is.
I don't know. Do people get paid off of Twitter? Well, yeah, like you do off YouTube. But do you have 90 million views? And then? Yes, I think that many views, they get paid. Do they like YouTube? He's talking about fucking aliens. You know what? I actually don't know. I don't know.
Okay, so yes, is that if you if you have a lot of views, it's just like YouTube is just like, God bless it, TikTok and Instagram. In fact, one of my kids does live stuff. And she said, Dad, I made 100 bucks last night. That's crazy. 100 bucks. It was over 100 actually, but whatever 100 bucks. And Mr. Producer, do you have any feedback or regard on that?
So I don't know what it all entails. But you know, she said I had enough people watching me where I got paid. So I don't know if it was direct money from the people watching or if it were if it was part of the advertising that she received. I don't know. I didn't ask too much about it because I'm trying to stay out of it. Right? Yeah. It is nothing to listen to. Is it? No, it's not like I mean, it's fair question. You know, I don't know. Yeah, no, it's literally she's just sitting there talking about stuff that she she'll set up her phone and she'll
cook and she'll go out on the patio and she'll just talk about things and, you know, and she's got a like she got her hand, you know, she had some surgery on it. She was talking about that and she was just tell stories. Excuse me, man. Um, there was.
Sorry, a little, a little gassy there. Very aggressive. It was. I'll tell you what, let's let's get his pants right before the the podcast. I did not shit my pants. It was out of every or if it was a little too
it was oily, it was oily. Yours are oily.
Yours. You know what?
So Elijah Craig single barrel is what the the choices for today. It's a private barrel stack in a private barrel. And it was the total wine distiller selection collection. That was did someone from total wine, Texas and say, hey, we have this. So, oh, Kevin, hey, shout out to
Kevin. Give us a heads up. So, hey, guys, I'm paraphrasing that, of course. It sounds just like I don't think he sounds like that. Hey, guys, stuff up here. I'm not a whole other thing that they side to you. You know, the rules. So you better hurry. Jeff's like, I'm on my way. I'm already there.
I think that's what he does at random hours. You'll just circle the parking lot, waiting for a text. And then like, I'm here. I'm here. Parked right now. Whatever you're working out of your car in the parking lot of total wine. Pop it over to the Elijah Craig barrel. Mr. Producer. So this one, Paul, look, he was sent on this.
Well, let's see here. Okay, 11 years. It is 11. Yep. All right. delighted to have partnered with what was that cigar heritage to bring you two fantastic barrels of Elijah Craig barrel proof bourbon. All right. So what does that mean?
Heaven Hills fantastic barrels. So what do they mix them? Is this a mix? I don't think it's a blend. No, it's not a blend. It's just two barrels that were dedicated to this. Okay, so it's I think it's cigar heritage is the just like total wine, right? Right. Right.
Website is right. So this is Heaven Hills barrel proof small batch. It's offered three times per year. They're single barrel. Let's see here. Scroll down for me. Yeah, it's good. Well, that says 121 proof. That means okay, well, every barrel is gonna be a little different, right?
That ours 123.6 123.5 I can't read that. And when these are very unique. So I mean, I we may not find exactly. Well, this barrel is gonna be different than that barrel. Right? Exactly. These are very, these are very unique barrels. These are private barrels. So as as strong. So what is the cap on this as 125? The cap to make it a bourbon or not a bourbon? That's what I remember reading. So it's it's below the cap. And I'll tell you for being 123.5 or six, whatever it says on
there, it does not taste 123. It's very smooth. It doesn't have that alcohol punch that you usually get when you open up the body like holy shit, I'm gonna peel some paint from this. It's interesting. It has a burn, but it's a slow burn start to finish. Yeah. And it's not and it doesn't overwhelm is that the alcohol or the rise or what do you think? I don't know. But it doesn't overwhelm the flavor at all. I don't think it has. Okay, I don't think it has. For my opinion, it doesn't have a whole lot of flavor.
I'm not left with a mouth full of flavor. Oh, I am. You know, but let me try it. Hold on. I mean, it's got like I said, it's got a consistent burn all the way through, but it's very slight and a ton of flavor pops. Okay. Well, you're Wow.
So from this point on, it's just gonna be Jeff. He's gonna Trump right now. Yeah, he's having some sort of throat embolism. All right. So did you inhale the alcohol? I don't know. Whatever you see I did there. Don't do that homeless job.
I was trying to aerate it. Oh, you were you were introducing your own carbon dioxide into I was doing my Anthony Hopkins version of father being father beans. Your father being very well.
Oh, yeah. You're a different shade of something. Yeah, my tonsils just blackened. Wow. All right. Anywho, so I did get a good taste on that one.
I think it's great. I don't taste any stone fruit. I don't taste any tartness in there. I don't taste any sweet. I do taste a lot of leather. It's not bad. It is good. I'm not saying that at all. Just doesn't have a lot of the high fruit flavors that we've been drinking.
Plus, it doesn't taste sweet. It is different. It is a little different. Well, the leather side. I think there's maybe some cinnamon on it. I'm sorry. What
did you need practice that little less. Are you tried. It was like your tongue was a little close to your teeth. Yeah, it's probably good that he's in all fairness. I'm not still looking at a good natural.
But I do get a little bit of cinnamon.
Such retards.
Such retards. You tried. Sorry. I did. I did. I tried to fail, which is a good thing. You need to practice doing that in the mirror. Oh man, that made me cry.
Yeah, he doesn't do the gay thing quite as well as you do. Is there a little cinnamon in some of your signs, Jeff? Oh, you got the neck moving and everything.
No, I like this. We have some of the other Heart of the Final Age of Craig's out there. We've liked all of them. Yeah, it does have cinnamon. So far.
That's good. Yep. But this one's 11 years. It's got an extra year on there from the other typical 11 11 years 11 years. I believe it is right. Oh, shit. I didn't see that. It's an 11 year. What's this right there. Damn. Very nice. I'll say I'm no stickle.
I mean, that's that's not that's a that's no slouch. That's some good stuff right there. I would give it an 8.5. Eight and a half. Yeah. Yeah. I'm pretty high on this. Eight and a half. I really like it. I do too.
Yeah, it's good stuff. I'll give it about an eight. I'll give it eight. I'll give it a point one. That's big for you. Yeah, I'll give it a one. That's good. All right. Much better than what we had last week. I wanted to share a feel good story that feel good might be might be a stretch because there is some unhappiness in the story. But did you hear about the the family that crashed in the Amazon with four kids with a mom that died. Yes. So the kids survived. Did the kids get killed? Yeah.
Eat them. Oh my god. You're ruining the story already. Did you know so it's got them open and climb inside to stay warm. Just like Star Wars. Star Wars with a ton ton. So it was a Cessna a small plane with three adults and four kids and the four kids are 13 11 like five or six and 11 months old. Right. Okay. 11 months old. And it crashes and one of the adults is the mother and co pilot pilot and some other guy. They didn't really say who the other person was. Anyway.
They it's in the jungle right and this plane took off from like a small indigenous village and was going somewhere and and they get to the plane and the kids are gone and they look at the evidence and they're like there's footprints and they're like they think the kids are alive and on the move.
Forty days it takes them 40 days to find these four kids and they and because they were like children of an indigenous tribe but you know usually when we talk about indigenous tribe it's like the guys throwing spears at the helicopters. We got big like lip plates. Exactly. And they're like you're not allowed to make contact with them. Right. It's not like that. All right. I mean they have like regular clothes on and they're just from indigenous tribes but that's what Shelley said. She was like indigenous tribe. What the hell are they doing in an airplane. It's kind of like Mennonites. Right.
Mennonites go to Walmart. Well I was asked was like is this like a some white family from Nebraska that crashed. Oh no. This is it. But check this out. So because it was indigenous children they knew it was cool. They knew the jungle and they knew what berries to eat.
They knew what they climbed into trunks of trees to stay away from snakes and stuff like this. And they freaking and they and they used flour from the plane and ate berries and they were malnourished. Make granted granted. But they were fine. That's good. And they found them alive.
Alive. All four of them including an 11 month old baby. Lincoln Nebraska family. Would have been better. What happened in Lincoln. No if that was like some family. Oh they would. We were making jokes that if like if it was our kids and they got a flat tire in Frisco they'd be dead in two hours. Yeah.
Yeah. My phone's dead. So literally just kind of collapse on the ground. The president Gustavo Petro celebrated the news of upon returning from Cuba where he signed a ceasefire with representatives of the National Liberation Army rebel.
He's expected to meet with the children Saturday. This is an it's such a feel good story from the standpoint of like it's kind of like do you guys remember when the kids got trapped in those caves because the 13 kids in Costa Rica or wherever that was. I thought it was Guatemala.
No I thought it was in Southeast Asia. I don't know. It's like Cambodia or something. Remember it's like a soccer team. Yes. I was down. I was down to South America somewhere. That where they eat each other.
God. Chilly. What is your obsession with. What was the movie where there was a plane crash and they ate each other. That was the movie Alive. That did happen. And that was a soccer team. That's what I was thinking. They ate the dead people. Yeah.
Well of course they eat the dead people. Well they killed them then they ate them. They don't ever eat alive people. Yes. I don't know. I wouldn't want to die. I'd be like hey man just eat my leg.
OK. So you just take a big bite. There we go. Why didn't they do that. I'll sacrifice a leg. I'll heal. Right. I mean why they just be like OK let's draw straws and we'll eat the leg of whoever gets the shortest straw. We'll knock you out slice your leg off and put it on a spit.
Actually had no fire so they eat it raw didn't they. They said no details. Well it was frozen. How the four siblings aged 19 13 9 4 and 11 months managed to survive on their own for so long. Well they ate.
Well they do know if they ate edible berries. They're knowledgeable. The kids knew they freaking knew the jungle. It's amazing. And the girl was the 13 year old. So the crash happened in the early hours of May 1st. God bless. 40 days. 40 days. I mean guys this is I know I know it's tragic that the mom died and then you know the pilot died. But man these four kids coming out of the jungle. I see a movie getting made. Oh huge. Yeah. And talk about Colombia being like super cool. Yeah. And I think that's the
super proud and and a great said they had over a hundred soldiers that were flown in remote out to the remote areas. They had local folks out there. It was it was an incredible search and they knew those kids were alive because they they said they found half eaten fruit.
Playing around. That's right. They were all these clues and they and they were playing a recording of their grandmother saying stay where you are because if you keep moving we miss you. And apparently they missed him by like 100 meters at one point. And if they a rescue dog that they had let loose in the jungle looking for the they said they played with the dog for a while. Oh really. And they can't get this. This is the crazy part. They can't find the dog. Oh that's funny. The dog is eating. They found the kids and the dog's gone. But the kids.
The kids ate the dog. Maybe they ate him or a Python ate the dog. Who knows. Also the dog's gone. The dog is missing. They have a search party for that. The kids can find them. No kidding. I know I just thought it was a great story. I mean you know you don't hear. You know what. Seriously how many good stories do we hear nowadays. Yeah not much. It's kind of like I don't know what happened just like was it last week that private jet crashed and was it Virginia or West Virginia.
And the F 16s were scrambled because it was approaching the White House or something like. Yes. There was a medical emergency. The pilot died and it was on auto was no one autopilot. Maybe it was. Anyway it crashed. I mean and the people on the plane didn't know. Did they perish. No they couldn't. Yeah they all died. I guess they couldn't get him out. I mean I don't know if they tried to get him out of the pilot seat and try to help land it. You know you hear stories where they do that. Right. But but the Air Force.
Scrambled the jets because it was approaching restricted airspace and they were going to shoot it down because there there is footage of there's a sonic boom over. Oh yeah. Oh they were like freaking out. People like we don't just rattled. I don't know what that was explosion. Yeah. Oh from the F 15. Twitter was a sonic boom. Yeah. Interesting. Yeah. I was sad. It was a it was a mom and a daughter and end up being some wealthy family or the CEO of somebody's family. Right. I don't know. I don't know either.
Yeah. Anyway so yeah that was that is a feel good. But nothing but nothing tops the golfer. What do you mean the golfer that he was in that private jet and it lost. Oh pain Stewart Stewart.
That was crazy. They just fell asleep and they didn't shoot. No they no crash. It ain't not a fuel crash. They were there was dead in there. They were dead. Yeah. That's what I meant. Yeah. You know I'll tell you I'm kind of
I don't personally care. I just it bugs me about the this L.I.V. or LVI and PGA. Yeah. Merge. Yep. What does L.I.V. stand for. Do we know. I heard it. I heard it says live. I don't know if it means fifty four. It doesn't matter. It's I don't know.
It originates in Saudi Arabia. So it's basically it's a it's a it's a country that suppresses women. Oh it's got a human rights. They and this is like you know they kill homosexuals. It is the Roman numeral for fifty four.
So but my point what I what I don't get is why aren't why aren't the woke folk all up in arms over this. I don't personally care. I just it's kind of like the other way. In other words they take their fight to the Middle East. Yeah. I'm just like to these countries that are horribly oppressive because it doesn't help them.
Well why not. I mean I mean they can because because they don't care. Well they could start you know petitioning going outside these PGA golf tournaments where they may know. Well I mean I think they should. They may know. But frankly I think it's a bad call.
I think it's a bad call to merge with this. I mean it's just like what if the NFL were to you know the same thing would happen. We get the other NFL the other football leagues out there. I mean you can't play both. You got to play one or the other.
You know PGA doesn't have enough money to keep fighting them. That's a problem. That's right. And apparently Trump sent out a text a long time ago and said this they're going to merge. And if you're if you're you know if you're smart you will go ahead and jump ship to L.I.V.
Because they're going to merge anyway and you're going to be the you're going to be the one person that didn't go get your money. Right. And he was right. He was totally right. Yep. I don't really watch golf so it doesn't impact me either man but it just. It's just kind of sad.
Although we have PGA headquarters in our town. Yeah. Well now we have it now we have Saudi Arabia in our town. So what is what is the name of it. The combined. It's still PGA. Oh it is. L.I.V. just merged into it. I understand they're still going to operate separately.
Interesting. OK. So all right. Well this is the they are anyway June 13th. Thank you Mr. Austin's first half of our show and dudes like us I'm Sean I'm Paul. Good on Jeff.
