Oh, he's taking his brain power to take it as a brain power.
My blood hurts a little bit from your not supposed to take it in your ass.
It's supposed to.
It's a pill you take in your mouth.
It's not a suppository.
Maybe maybe it works faster if you could be absorptive.
You can take the alpha brain and you put it up there as a little suppository.
Alpha rectum.
Alpha ass.
No, I did my testosterone shot right before I came over here today and it's just a little
sore.
A little sore.
How did I tell you?
You shoot it in your hole?
You said your ass.
Wow.
I shoot it straight into my rectum.
You don't even penetrate anything.
You just squirt it up in there.
I don't even use this.
Does it absorb through the rectal roll?
Okay, what a way to start the show.
Can we start the show properly?
Preparation H applicator just jolted.
Can we start the show properly?
We have a guest for guys.
All right, all right.
Well, look, it's December 5th.
Holy shit.
December 5th.
Time is talking away.
I know it.
Oh, man.
It's the first half.
The weather is fantastic outside.
We're all digging it.
It's Christmas time.
It's the season.
Ho, ho, ho.
We do have a guest.
We've been long-awaited.
Yes.
Super long-awaited.
We've got Mr. Producer back there, Mr. Austin.
Thank you for showing up as usual.
Dudes like us.
I'm Sean.
I'm Paul.
I've waited for you to drink.
Yeah, thanks a lot.
Who the hell was that?
I'm Jeff.
And our guest.
And special guest star.
I'm Kevin.
There you go.
Hey, Kevin.
Very special guest.
Yeah, special.
Paul's been, not Paul, but Sean's been working with him for like three years.
Yes.
Yeah, hey, when are you going to come to the podcast?
He's like, you guys are fucking idiots.
There's no way I'm going to the podcast.
So he is our bourbon expert for sure.
Yes.
Or a bunch of new...
Very, very knowledgeable.
So we're looking forward to some incredible insight you have tonight.
Well, you don't have to.
You can have some feedback, but I don't want you to hold you to it.
You're not there as a party favor for us.
You're here to have fun.
I do hear you guys sometimes say weird things about bourbon that make me kind of...
Set the record straight.
Crazy, but for sure.
Austin turns gate...
We're like, bald and bald.
Oh, that means it's 90 proof.
It's been aged for one month.
Right.
You guys got that down.
I've heard you talk about that.
That's hilarious.
It's usually Sean...
We'll talk into it a little better.
There we go.
It's usually Sean saying something factually inaccurate.
Usually.
Yeah, we do say some things we don't know what the hell we're talking about.
Well, I'm not going to say anything.
I'm just going to say that.
Well, here's the thing.
The people out there don't know.
So if we at least sound confident, they're like, yeah.
That's the problem.
We're spreading misinformation about bourbon.
This bourbon tastes like orange Fanta.
I guess it tastes like orange Fanta.
They start believing us.
And then they say something to their neighbor when they're hanging out in their backyard.
They're like, oh yeah, bourbon is blah, blah, blah, blah.
They're like, no, it isn't.
Yeah, it is.
I listen to a bourbon podcast, fool.
We're going to have community notes all over us, correcting us.
Totally.
We're about to be kicked off the YouTube, but fuck them.
We pull a big Elon Musk.
Fuck you.
Yeah, no shit.
That was greatness, what he did.
That was a New York Times, I guess they do it yearly, a New York Times interview where
they have big time CEOs come up.
And I don't know if it's all CEOs, but big in the business.
And they go up there and they get interviewed about the latest topics of their business.
Right.
And they're just on a stage with an audience and an interviewer.
Well, back it up a little bit.
Talk about what Elon is talking about with this Disney guy, Bob Igor.
Igor, Iger.
Iger.
Well, Elon is accused of either supporting or saying or supporting a anti-Semitic statement.
Yeah, but who did that?
So they have this media company.
Media Matters.
They have a media matters that goes out and they will go out there.
They'll even buy the ad.
Right.
And they'll put it out there and they'll try to trap, they'll try to create something
that's not there.
Something controversial.
Yeah.
Correct.
And Bob was kind of like, yeah, you need to pull your shit or you're not getting money.
And so.
Yeah, they were saying, okay, what was the story?
That there were ads popping up next to prominent advertisers' ads that were anti-Semitic.
Something along those lines.
I don't know exactly what they said.
And he claimed that wasn't true.
Right.
Well, anyway.
And then he ended up liking some posts that ended up backfiring on him because it was,
okay.
And then Disney, Apple.
A whole bunch.
Yeah.
Walmart too.
Yeah, a couple of big, several big ones pooled their advertising.
And well, during this interview, this New York Times interview, Bob Iger was up before
him or one or two people before the Elon Musk.
And he was asking about it.
He's like, yeah, we pulled our thing because we didn't think Disney should be associated
with that kind of rhetoric and shit like that.
Disney of all.
Basically.
Yeah.
So when Elon Musk gets up there, he gets questions.
I don't know if we have the footage of this or not.
We should have found it before we started the show.
I'll pull it up.
Elon Musk, fuck you.
Yeah.
I'm going to look at the video of that.
Essentially.
Yeah.
It may be beeped out, but that's fine.
You'll get the gist of it.
But what it was is that the interviewer asked his feelings about it.
Elon was like, they're going to blackmail me over money.
They're going to try to blackmail me.
And he basically shot the double bird and said, fuck you.
Twice.
And let's see if we can hear it.
Here it is.
Let's see if we can hear it.
It's classic.
It's greatness.
It is greatness.
If somebody's going to try to blackmail me with advertising, blackmail me with money,
go fuck yourself.
I hope they stop.
You hope.
Don't advertise.
You don't want them to advertise?
Yeah.
What do you mean?
If somebody's going to try to blackmail me with advertising, blackmail me with money,
go fuck yourself.
You hear the murmuring.
Go fuck yourself.
Is that clear?
I hope it is.
It was great.
Yeah.
Well, you know, they're not really showing it.
It's kind of a, go ahead and kill it.
Yeah.
Because they're just doing their own stupid shit.
Can you hear that?
You can't hear that?
No.
Oh, that's unfortunate.
Well, you know, we've got to do, well, it's not our act.
We'll get that fixed.
Yeah, we'll fix that.
But yeah, what's good is right after he said that second F-U, he goes, hi, Bob, if you're
still in the audience.
Yeah.
Hey, Bob.
Yeah, because apparently he was on the stage speaking earlier in the day.
Like right before him, I think.
Oh, dude.
Yeah.
That's tense, man.
I love it.
Yeah, you could hear the murmuring and the air get sucked out of the room when he said
it initially.
But the thing with the Elon Musk is he is what he has, what they call F-U money.
Fuck you, money.
Oh, absolutely.
He doesn't give a shit.
Well, he does.
He cares, but he doesn't have to deal with, uh, you don't have to cater to these people.
He doesn't have to grow to anybody.
Correct.
He has his beliefs and he's not going to have Disney or Apple or any other business or company
force him into censoring speech.
Right.
And he's going to grovel because people aren't advertising?
Come on.
No.
Well, that's the problem.
That's, that's the power that these companies have on controlling the narrative is that
they, you know, you can't do that.
You can't go to somebody that is rich and try to influence them with money.
You just can't.
And you don't like Trump for one thing.
Well, and that's the power of cancel culture.
People are terrified to say anything because they don't want to be the next business that
goes under because of cancel culture.
But it's going to take more people say, fuck you to these types of people who try to force,
try to cancel you and force you into, into succumbing to their, their thoughts or not
thoughts, but their way of thinking.
Yeah.
Or just basically so you don't say anything.
Yep.
What's your shirt say?
Getting into the holiday spirit.
You got a little cocktails.
A little cocktail.
A little bourbon or something.
Nice.
Yeah.
I was watching a podcast and Jeff is just lounging on the couch with his jam jams on
and hi guys.
Hey, what's going on there?
Jeff, what are you doing?
I'm just, just, just watching TV.
Just like that.
I didn't go anywhere today.
I didn't leave the house.
So I rarely leave the house.
What's your work from home?
This is not normal.
I thought when Jeff came in his, whatever, my flannels, it's a Jeff thing.
My Teddy.
Yeah.
Oh, really?
Lord, I don't want that visual.
Oh, you had it.
No kidding.
Little Lacey, Lacey fringe.
Yeah.
That looked horrible.
Snap crotch.
You have a fucking Chewbacca shot.
Snap crotch.
Really?
Snap crotch.
Okay.
All right.
Well, you know, first of all, let's, uh, huh.
We, we have like a laundry list of topics that we, we're, we've got a lot of special
events that are coming up.
We have dudes like us party that we're, we're setting up.
Um, yeah, we're, we're setting up a dudes like us party.
Yeah.
We'll invite some people out there and, uh, we have no idea when that's going to be.
We'll announce that shortly.
Okay.
Maybe on Instagram.
I don't know.
Christmas party.
We'll do, we'll do a Christmas party.
Uh, maybe on Instagram.
We'll post it, uh, on what other platforms do we have?
We have Instagram.
Yeah.
We should put it on Instagram.
Yeah.
How about we put it on?
We got Facebook.
We got Facebook page.
That's the same thing, essentially.
All right.
So those folks out there that want to support dudes like us without having to support dudes
like us, uh, and you want a fantastic cutting board or a wood project, we feature our stuff
in downtown McKinney at filtered coffee shop.
We have our dudes like us cutting boards, dudes like us stuff.
We've got coasters.
We've got some Christmas, we've got some Christmas coasters out there.
Yeah.
So that stuff.
Yeah.
You've gotten this laser burning thing down.
It looks really good, man.
I figured it.
Just turned into quite the, uh, the expert.
Yeah, I'll have to show you the, the new Boba Fett.
Oh, when we, uh, during halftime, it's kind of a big piece of wood, but it needs to be
cut down.
Have you made ornaments?
Uh, I've tried making ornaments, but the piece, the ornament piece we have doesn't work well
with the laser.
We bought a bunch of stuff from Hobby Lobby and we're kind of experimenting with the stuff
to what's put on there, what's going to work, what doesn't work.
Um, you know, we got a laser cause the laser feature actually is pretty cool.
Uh, the only thing is it's just not very powerful.
And it takes a very long time.
Yeah.
It's just took four hours to do the Boba Fett.
When we were out at the, uh, McKinney, McKinney Christmas festival, we were walking around
at the little, you know, booths and stuff.
And it's fun to do that because you see what other people do, right?
Whether it be carving, burning, you know, decorations, whatever.
And so, yeah, we saw this one booth that was actually pretty impressive.
Um, had a lot of, a lot of, uh, yeah, laser stuff, a lot of, uh, paint stuff.
And so we were asking them, you know, Hey, what are you doing?
And so Sean, you asked, how much is your laser?
Is it like a, like 800?
And they both looked at you and there's like 12,000.
Well, whatever.
We were like, Oh yeah.
Yeah.
Well, it wasn't, it was pretty funny.
Ours was 800.
It's a seven watt diode.
Yeah.
Right.
And so theirs is the, the, the all in one enclosure.
It's a CO2, uh, enclosed kit.
So Jeff, uh, went online and he pulled up a bunch of things.
He sends some links over, took a look at them.
It's a big day.
I mean, it comes as a table, right?
Essentially.
You open it up, you put your shit in there and you walk away.
Right.
I mean, it's a big investment.
If you're, if you're going to like, that was a couple and they, all they do is shows, right?
I don't, I think neither of them work.
They just, well, I think they do a lot of their stuff on Etsy.
They do.
They do only 95% of their stuff through Etsy and they don't even have to do anything.
They, they literally, they're like, we don't even have to come to these shows.
Right.
Yeah.
We don't, we just come out here because it's fun.
But they do 60 hours of crafts a week.
Yeah.
They just, it's a lot.
It's a lot.
So, but that's the difference, right?
Someone doing it as a living, as opposed to what you guys are doing as a hobby.
Sure.
It's, it's huge.
It's a huge difference.
Yeah.
You got time during the day, you get up in the morning, you get, you're a little bit
more passionate, you got a little pep in your step and you're way rock and roll.
Yeah.
It's your own business, right?
You're used to do as much as you want because you're going to sell as much as you can, right?
So.
And they're, they're, they're not overwhelmed, but they're, they're comfortably slammed.
I mean, yeah.
That they, they worked that machine seven days a week.
Right.
You know, and they, it works really fast too.
He was talking to me about the wattage of the laser and it's a CO2.
You said it was 100 watt.
Yeah.
It's 100 watt and that thing will go through.
Ours is seven, you said?
Yeah.
Seven.
Oh God, that's funny.
But it does like really intricate work.
So it, like, for example, if you have an ornament that's flat, made out of wood, balsam wood
or something similar like that, an eighth inch thick, it'll go in there.
It'll laser out very intricate cutouts.
Like a snowflake?
Yeah, like a snowflake.
Right.
Like a snowflake.
Yeah.
That's a perfect example, Joe.
He's a good boy.
Yeah.
Very intricate, very intricate snowflake.
Anyway.
Like a fingerprint.
Yes, like a fingerprint.
Like a fingerprint.
Holy shit.
So the problem, I'm a little bit giddy today because we started off the podcast by doing
a little sample.
Every now and then we will pull from our infinity bottle.
For those folks that don't listen to dudes like us, we'll quickly give you a synopsis.
Paul Gopher.
All the bottles that we, well, we have a ton of bottles and then at some point we get to
a level of the bottle where there's.
It's not a literal ton, but it's about almost 200 bottles.
Right.
And so we get to a point where when the bottle's not, there's not enough in the bottle to pour
three more times evenly, then we take that amount and we dump it in this large jug.
It's usually three to four ounces.
Maybe five ounces left.
And then we write down how much, how many ounces and what kind of bourbon it was.
And we basically are making our own blend in a giant jug.
I don't recall exactly how many we have on there, but I want to say it's like 34 bottles.
Yeah, it's a whole bunch.
Yeah, it's quite a bit.
And what say you, Kevin?
What did you think of it?
It was great.
I really enjoyed it.
It really was surprisingly good.
I mean, I don't want to say surprisingly good.
It was really good.
I knew it would be good.
I've had some infinity type drinks like that, but it was really good.
Well, you never know what to expect.
Usually, yeah, we're just dumping a bunch of bottles, leftover shit in a jug.
Right.
So I wish you had mentioned that you should stir it or shake it.
I didn't even think you need to.
I don't think I said that.
I'm the one that said that because I thought I thought maybe after setting there that maybe
it'll layer a little bit.
Maybe I don't know why it wouldn't.
I mean, I guess we like put one of those magnets in there so it spins from the inside.
Yes.
Perfect.
Yes.
Sean, take the bottle with you the next time we leave.
You know what?
I'm on it.
You drop a little it's a little capsule shaped magnet and it falls to the bottom and then
you set it on this little little motor thing that spins underneath so that it actually
will spin the magnet.
Oh, I see.
It mixes it from inside.
Forever mixer.
Correct.
Yeah.
See, why can't they generate electricity that way?
It takes electricity to do that.
It's like charging a Tesla.
Yeah.
We could put like a Peloton up here like a bike.
And we could power the TV.
Charge.
Yeah.
We'll start.
We'll bring some people up here.
They could run them on the Peloton.
We'll charge it from that power up the magnet to stir the booze.
We were expecting our other partner, Mr. Stan.
Sorry, you couldn't make it tonight.
He has he has eye herpes and he needs to take care of that from the doctor.
Was it creamy?
I'm not sure.
Is this a HIPAA violation?
I think I have some herpes working right now.
Well, he's I need to take care of what do you do?
You squeeze it.
You put a hot compress on it.
It's a clogged pore right by your eyeball.
They look painful, but they're not really painful, are they?
No, it's I don't know if they can get really infected or not.
But I usually Julie sees them and I'll put a hot compress on.
They'll go away in a day or so.
She just stabs them with a needle.
Yes, you look like a needle.
Don't honey, don't move.
Don't move.
Oh, like a knitting needle.
Oh, God.
A big giant needle.
And it's shaking.
Yeah.
Don't move.
God, speaking of a giant needle and I watched a show on Netflix over the last couple of
days called Obliterate.
And it is I've seen the previews for it.
It's a cheesy little spy thing for, you know, Obliterate on Netflix, Mr. Producer.
And they have they have a team of people, the elite, their ex Navy SEALs, whatever.
And they're going to save the world as usual.
And one scene they had, they have this.
This is like a prime example of the denominations of different people on the team.
This is what Netflix, what Disney does.
It's diverse.
Yeah.
I mean, it's like, oh, my God.
So they have they got a white guy and a white female, an Asian female, a black guy who's
gay, an Asian dude that flies a helicopter and the other white whatever.
So they had a gay girl, a lesbian.
And but the part you talk about the needle is that the guy, the black guy, the gay guy,
his name is Trunk.
And for a reason, seen for a reason, they showed they they have gratuitous male scenes
of the penises.
They show so many penises in this damn thing.
And I was like, God bless.
And then they caught him.
They caught the black guy.
The guy's name is Trunk.
And they had him tied up over his head, hands over his head.
And he was hanging them.
And they were like, hey, look, you need to tell us something or we're going to he pulls
this wand out.
And then when he kicks a little button, these little sprigs, little things pop out the side
and it starts to spin.
And so he says, where are you going to put that?
And he was like, I'm going to put it up your penis or whatever exactly.
He said.
And you pull it.
They pull his pants down.
And this dude is hung like an elephant.
And they show all of this.
They showed it all.
And it was absurd.
I mean, because the the guy that was putting it in there, they you saw him handling it.
All right.
He tried to trying to shove it up there.
Yeah.
He shoves it all the way in there.
Right.
And then something happens where they someone comes in and frees him.
But the prong is still stuck in there and he's still hanging up.
He's like, hey, can you take that thing out?
And his friends like, I'm not touching that.
So then you see him and he picks up this frickin thing.
It's just a big ding dong.
It's just it scarred me.
Yeah.
Kind of movie.
It doesn't sound like I need to watch that then.
Yeah.
It was a fun little eight series, eight shows.
Oh, it was a show, not a movie then.
No, it was not a movie.
It was it was a little serious.
But I mean, it was fun.
You know, all the cliche stuff you got to know.
Whatever.
So anyways, back to the the needle.
I could needle.
You talk about you popping your poke in style.
Oh, yes.
Yes.
We moved on from that.
Yeah, we did.
All right.
Well, there you go.
There we go.
Speaking of movies, I think you saw we talked about Lady Ballers.
Oh, and you saw it.
Yeah.
And first of all, I recommend everyone go out and get a membership at Daily Wire.
It is expensive.
And in retrospect, I probably don't.
I'm going to cancel my membership right away because I don't want that to renew.
Because it was like two hundred forty nine dollars.
Wow.
And I was like, God damn.
And I was at the 50 percent off mark.
No, no, it's two hundred forty nine dollars a year.
And then they had a special where it's like half off.
So I just clicked it because I thought I don't know if it's true, but evidently someone said
that it was.
But whatever.
I don't know.
I got the membership.
They've got a variety of movies on that.
I didn't know that.
Right.
The Daily Wire has a bunch of movies on their Candace Owens is on their own Schroeder on
their show or is in prison.
What for J six for January six?
He got some really.
Yeah.
He's getting early release, though.
I saw a news article.
Unreal.
Well.
That is crazy.
Is that the one that's not only just recently somebody got arrested.
He was from the Alex Jones leaving Nashville.
Oh, I don't know.
I mean, the premiere of Lady Ballers, he was arrested because about three years ago he was,
you know, involved.
I don't know.
I don't know if it was him or not, but I did see a headline that he's getting early release.
OK, it couldn't have been because this guy literally just got arrested and then spent
the night in jail and then they let him, you know, let him off on bail or whatever.
Says the FBI arrest L.A. actor and Republican Party official over alleged involvement in
January six riot.
Unbelievable.
Let's see here.
The public board member was arrested charges related to entering the U.S. Capitol during
the riot.
You know, and they're misdemeanors.
So think about this misdemeanors three years later after they initially interviewed him,
raided his home and interrogated him for a misdemeanor.
And that was three years ago.
And then they decide as he's leaving the premiere of this movie, which is, you know, transphobic
movie, right?
You know, and they decide to arrest him.
I don't think it's transphobic.
I just mean, it's not it's not supportive.
It's not supportive of Kevin.
I've never heard of it.
All right.
So we played a little bit of our last podcast.
It's basically a spoof.
And they've got this group of guys that played basketball in high school, perhaps.
And they're they were good enough in high school, I guess, because, you know, it's high
school.
I don't think they quite made it to the championships.
Yeah.
This as their chance.
So they were like, well, we go to college and we can we can identify as females.
And then he's like, we could dominate every sport.
And they started listening to him and they like soccer.
And he was immediately shut up.
So, you know, soccer is not a real sport.
See if you can play a little sound on this, Mr. Austin.
Yeah.
So, yeah, we did a little bit of this last week.
Guys, this is serious.
Sports can be your pathway to a better life.
What like yours?
Please don't steal my catalytic converter again.
Winning matters is the key ingredient in becoming a winner.
Maybe you should try it sometime.
Olivia Wilde.
I am not.
Let's cut to the chase.
I know you're not a woman.
You know how he identifies.
If you can beat them.
What do you know about the U.S. Open's for the global games?
You want us to compete as women.
$5,000.
This is the way the world is now.
My eight year old daughter told me all about it.
So a guy can become a girl with no physical changes at all.
Oh, that's called gender fluid.
So I can be a woman on the court and a man in the bedroom.
I can't believe it.
Nice.
You mean when you're sleeping?
Yes.
So was it funny?
I mean, you know, did they show all the good parts in the preview like they normally do?
Yes.
But look, the premise was good.
It was a spoof.
It was a spoof, you know, and it didn't have a whole lot of substance.
In fact, it got kind of cheesy towards the end.
Right.
But kind of.
But it's supposed to be slapstick.
I mean, yeah, they're trying to make a point.
Yeah.
And they did a great job.
I mean, Matt Walsh was in it and he I mean, he was the God bless it.
So the main guy, Jeremy Boring, he was divorced and his ex wife was dating or married Matt
Walsh, who was like this this holistic hippie dude and totally into sexuality and all this
stuff.
And it was just you got to see it.
I recommend everyone go watch it just because, you know, it supports a good cause and it
really puts out there the woke mentality that kind of crushes it.
And how silly it is.
It is.
It's kind of like the South Park episode where Randy the Macho Man joins the girls sports.
Have you seen that episode?
No.
And he's like, oh, and he's like destroying the women.
I mean, but that's what's really happening.
I mean, I just read a story today about some two transgender guys were in some biking race
and they took first and second in the women's in the category.
Oh, yeah, was cycling.
Yeah.
I mean, it's just it's happening every single competition.
Right.
But we talk about this all the time.
Well, what about the judge?
You're talking about Title nine.
So they had Congress had a big meeting.
They had one of their sessions today and they were so Joe Biden, our buddy from administration
was what he wants.
They wanted to change some of the language in the title.
So if you guys don't know what Title nine is, I don't know what is verbatim.
It protects women, doesn't it?
It protects women and their in their rights.
So women have struggled.
They have the right to sports, right to their own restroom.
Yes, they have rights for privacy.
They've got a whole laundry list of rights that women are allowed to have.
And you cannot violate these rights.
And I think the intent of it was to create equity between men and women.
Correct.
Right.
I mean, like they should have a soccer team just like the men have a soccer team.
Yeah, like with colleges and and stuff like that.
So NBA, WNBA, whatever.
I mean, whatever they want, they could they could probably just get it.
But but what what Biden wanted to do is he wanted to change the language a little bit.
So to include transgender folks.
Right.
Now, I get it.
The spirit of what he's trying to say kind of makes sense.
You know, as far as I know, I've only heard of one story and they said it at the very,
very, very, very, very end of this three hour session they had today.
One of the Democrats said that she was talking about some little Asian dude that turned trans
and joined the women's rugby team.
And he was just like, I can't believe all this talk going around.
Here I am playing against the women's against women that are 250 pounds, you know, and one
of the first games he played, he broke his arm.
He was like, I don't know what they're talking about.
Now, men are bigger bound and all that.
He might not be, but I know the rest of them are.
That is a horrible comparison.
Totally.
You stupid idiots.
They find the smallest male competitor they can find rugby of all the bad ones that attract
the biggest women.
Right.
Well, whatever.
The whole thing was and then the madam chairman woman, she was she went off at the very end.
I mean, after she heard that comment from the Democrats, she got to make the closing statements.
And I'm telling you, she went off.
She had a rant for like five minutes about how it's not right, how retarded it was to
even have this in Congress where there are guys playing against.
There are males playing against your daughters.
Right.
You know, and then Riley Gaines was sitting there as they had they had like four people
out there that they were poking.
Yeah, they were they're interviewing and they were asking questions and trying to set
them up for something.
And hate hate hate speech.
Oh, it was were there people that they're interviewing that were for this?
Just like Riley Gaines.
Yeah, you know, you had two guests and two for.
I'm sorry.
It was a typical congressional hearing.
Yeah, there were there were more than like six or seven people.
So they were they were there were a bunch of people out there.
They were just asking questions nonstop.
And the responses they had were stupid.
They didn't have any substance.
You know, it's just like they're like, listen to yourself.
What you're saying.
Just listen to what you're saying.
Yeah, they're like, well, how what exactly do you mean by woman?
And it's like, really?
I mean, do we need to have this conversation?
Well, hell, that happened in the Supreme Court.
Yes.
Supreme Court.
Just you couldn't answer what you couldn't get.
You wouldn't define what a woman.
I'm not a biologist.
You don't have to be.
Unbelievable.
Oh, wow.
Wow.
What was that?
Well, he looked over there.
He's a newbie.
And Kevin has concluded his bourbon.
Oh, wow.
Should we jump on our bourbon real quick?
Well, we might as well get out the way.
So it's fresh on Kevin's mind.
Because we're drinking.
We're drinking, right?
Yeah.
Looking at.
Well, OK.
We're jumping in?
Well, this is what we get, Sean.
This is an 1845.
We wanted Kevin to try an 1845 because I don't think you've made it out to do it.
I have not.
I'm really excited.
I've always really talked to be very highly of this stuff.
So I was really well, I liked it.
Well, you drank all of it.
So what do you think?
And they have a number of bottles, right?
So I mean, they got their typical small batch, single barrel, you know, all that typical.
So this is weeded.
All right.
Well, let's back up.
It's 1845 Distilling Company.
They're located in Lowry Crossing, Texas.
They're just south of McKinney on the east side of the 75.
Is that an actual town, a city?
Lowry Crossing is a little tiny town, a little village.
Unincorporated area.
Yes.
So they've got they've got about four brick houses out there.
Is that right?
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
They've got some that they're they're making.
And it's very interesting community where they're at because, first of all, it's Texas.
So, you know, it's got the the weather that makes it kind of brew a little bit faster.
It ages faster.
Right.
And another interesting concept that it does, what they believe, is that the pecan trees
that are around it are influencing the taste of it.
Yeah, it used to be a pecan tree farm.
Yeah.
So this one is a preemption.
It's a single barrel Texas weeded straight bourbon whiskey.
Forty four months in the barrel.
Fifty eight point four.
It's one hundred sixteen point eight proof.
I'll pass the bottle over there.
And we want to get your opinion on this.
Yeah.
So I like it.
I think it's a great bottle.
You know, it's you know, I don't want to compare it to the rest of them.
They made some that are better.
This one is extremely tasty.
I liked it.
I liked a lot.
It was very good.
The first taste you get what I call the Texas twang.
Right.
That's what I call it.
Taste that that barrel that you get out of a lot of these Texas bourbons.
You know, it goes away very quickly.
Is that because of the heat, you think?
I think it's because the age because the age is quicker.
Right.
In Texas.
So you pick up that barrel pretty quick and some guys embrace it like describe that.
Describe that you think it's ethanol type.
No, no, it's the wood.
It's a wood.
That's what I taste.
The tannins.
Is that what you call it?
Yes.
I taste the barrel and I you know, I've I have a hard time describing taste.
I've you know, drink a lot of bourbon.
I'm not very good at describing taste.
I always tell people when I teach classes, right.
I judge bourbons on a three point scale.
You know, one, two, three, one's not good.
Two's good.
Three's very good.
That's it.
That's how I that's how I judge my bourbons.
This is a this is a almost a three, two, two and a half.
This is very good.
You taste like I said, you taste that barrel initially and then you drink a little bit
more.
It kind of kind of dissipates.
But that's good.
I've never paid attention to on the front, the barrel, the Texas twang.
I'm going to have to pay attention to the Texas twang.
Well, I think there's a little bit more to it.
I think the Texas twang is that makes sense.
But I think there's another addition to the influence of the wood species of the barrels
is because they're not the traditional barrels that most bourbons of whiskeys are from.
You know, they're procuring wood from all over the planet to make these barrels because
there's not like it.
Well, they are now.
Most of their stuff is from Missouri.
Will not.
OK.
They're from Missouri.
This new stuff is going to be from Europe.
So OK.
So all this stuff is from the old batch.
This was four years ago.
Yeah.
OK.
It has to be American oak.
Well, I mean, there's a lot of their ball.
I mean, it does.
It has to be American white oak.
I'm not sure what they're I think they're talking about.
But finish.
If you finish it, it's whatever you want.
Right.
But that's what they're talking about.
You've got to age it initially in American oak.
So I don't know what the deal is with that.
If they're buying the oak from Germany overseas and they're they're getting it and making
their bottles here or barrels here.
So I don't know how that's working.
But OK.
So let's back up.
So what I was talking about, the species of wood is that Bob Patet Petit from Lowers Cross
in 1845.
He he shared that the grains are a little bit tighter and European oak.
It's right, it's a little bit tighter and the taste.
Surprisingly, surprisingly doesn't come out as as efficiently as American oakwood.
It takes it.
It should take a little bit longer.
But since it's in Texas, then it just it still comes out hotter.
So the Texas twang.
I've never heard that before.
All right.
I just that's what I call it.
You said about Kona's.
That's what I call it.
Well, Balcones embraces that right.
They embrace the barrel.
If you know, Belkown has has that I call the real balconies barrel taste.
But they embrace it and it's heavily barreled.
You know, but it's they do it in such a way that it's very I mean, a lot of people like
it, obviously.
I've run across a lot of people who just can't stand balconies.
It's just because it's just too much, too rich.
Is it too much?
Too much of that barrel.
Is it kind of like the whole dickle thing?
Either like dickle your dope because of the whole mineral taste to it.
Some of the balconies, they may be you know, they have so many different flavors.
They probably got a taste that brimstone.
They were like, oh, yeah.
But even if you had their single malt, I mean, it's you try that single malvers is like,
you know, it's basically a scotch.
They're using grains imported from Scotland, but it doesn't taste like a scotch at all,
right?
It's got all that heavy barrel on it, which is that balcony's taste.
I think it's very unique.
So what drives that?
They they leave it in the barrel longer.
Is it an age aging in the barrel thing?
Or is it?
I think it's I think it's where it is in Waco.
You know, they their Rick houses are out there that they used to be.
They sitting out there and they got pretty hot.
OK.
And so does Garrison Brothers have that Texas twang?
I tasted on Garrison.
I tasted on almost every Texas whiskey, except for like still Austin.
Still Austin really doesn't have that to me.
I don't get it.
That is interesting.
That's what I get.
I think because of the hot Texas climate, it opens up the wood.
It goes deeper into the wood, probably stays in the wood longer.
Right.
And then, you know, that's what's bringing out.
And I think the heat.
Yeah, I think the heat.
Yeah, I think so.
I think so.
And they got an age of quick, right?
Age is so much faster in Texas.
Right.
Interesting.
You got that movement in the barrel.
I wonder if the balconies took over like the branch Davidians, David Koresh compound and
just move their stuff in there.
That building burnt down.
Yeah, a lot of it burned, didn't it?
Yeah, pretty much the whole thing.
Pretty dark transition.
Well, at one time, I know Bob said he was going to the very first barrel that they filled,
they're going to let it sit for 10 years.
He goes, it may not be any good.
That's a long time.
I've never heard of a 10 year Texas burn.
That's what he said.
He goes, it may be not very good, but we're going to try it.
Now, this was the first time that would be pretty barrel heavy.
Yeah, that would be very viscous.
Well, yeah, basically, you've got chewing on wood, sucking on wood.
Camelot, camelet.
Who?
Calumet.
Yeah, we got a 15 or 16.
Yeah, yeah.
Have you tried that?
Not tried it.
I guess I'm going to try it pretty soon.
Yeah, well, we have it.
I mean, we can stand for it.
16, I think we have the 16, I think.
I don't know which one is the 15.
I thought we had both, but maybe we don't.
What did you guys think?
Was it too much wood?
Was it too heavy?
No, it wasn't.
I'll go get it.
I don't remember it being.
Yeah, go get it, man.
Because I hear people saying like, you know, Pappy 23, right?
It's very old.
23 is too much.
It's very old.
I'll tell you right now, it's old.
Yeah.
Yeah, but you basically have a toothpick in your mouth.
Right, right.
Yeah.
Huh.
It's good.
So there you go.
But they do, but they do, people seem to think that the longer, the more excessive aging,
the better, right?
But maybe not.
So we had to buy that from the turkey king.
The wild turkey guys, the Jimmy and Eddie Russell, right?
Legends.
Yep.
They say eight years is a sweet spot.
Interesting.
They've been a record saying that.
Of course they make a 13 year, right?
But the 13 year Russells, but they say eight years is a sweet spot for a bourbon aged,
at least in Kentucky.
So the Russells still, it might be less for Texas.
How often do you get that in?
Five or six.
Russell 13, we don't get in anymore.
Yeah.
It's lottery only.
Yeah.
God bless.
Yeah.
There is a point like Elijah Craig 18, you know, what is it?
Is that like just chewing on a hunk of wood?
What do you think of that, Kevin?
You can taste, you taste that barrel on there, right?
Well, for sure.
Yeah.
How do you pronounce it again?
Calumet?
Calumet.
I have no idea how to pronounce it.
That's how I pronounce it.
How do we think of it?
Calumet.
That's good.
This is good bourbon though.
I like it.
C-A-L-U-M-E-T.
16 year, Kentucky straight bourbon whiskey.
You don't have to look it up, Mr. Reprezor.
Yeah, we really like this one.
It's 106 proof.
Yeah.
Why did you guys buy that one?
That's not cheap.
This is not cheap.
Yeah.
Yeah, we paid a couple hundred bucks for it.
Couple hundred.
No, it wasn't.
150-ish.
Yeah, it was about 150.
Yeah, it should have been 150-ish.
It's one of the first ones we split.
Yeah.
Well, I like that program.
I like when we were, we should do that.
Well, we do do that.
You know, we're starting to, I mean, we have a diverse collection out there and we're,
but we're slowing down on purchasing because we're being more selective.
Yeah.
Because we're, we're every week, three bourbons every week.
Some of them are trash.
And they're still out there.
Well, four was Paul picked.
Yeah, Paul's picks are trash.
They're still out there.
Yeah, they are.
Every time we're like, but we start talking about Paul picks up, yeah, like Williamsburg
with coconut, you know.
Or Backstreet or Backbead or whatever the hell it was.
You bought that?
Well, we, I mean, we were buying all, whatever.
That's true.
You're right.
Yeah, there's, yeah.
We were, we were trying to sample all sorts of bourbons.
We were trying to figure out what we liked and, uh,
You're probably the last person to buy that.
You're probably the last person to buy the old Williamsburg.
Right.
Although we're going to, for sure.
Do you remember we used to, we used to pick up black powder?
Black powder.
Yeah.
That's not bad.
As a mixture.
For, for what?
For, right?
That was pretty cheap.
It was really cheap.
Yeah.
I don't think you get scared anymore.
So not bad.
It's a whole different, it's a whole different criteria when you're talking about a mixer
versus a sipper, right?
I mean, that changes everything.
So there are some really good mixers that are, you know, people think of gut rot, but
if you're going to mix it with something, it's great.
Right?
We talked about Kentucky gentlemen.
We talked about Henry McKenna.
That's great.
Yeah.
We, and Rebel, Rebel is pretty good for that.
Um, there was another one.
Hmm.
I kind of lost my train of thought.
Anyway, this, uh, Kalamay is, uh, I haven't tasted it.
I'm still got my 1845.
All right, so let's break the 1845.
Uh, the 1845, wherever the bottle went is, uh, it's, uh, 44 months.
It's 116 plus proof.
Um, I'm going to give it a solid seven and a half.
I'm going to give it a seven.
Uh, Kevin gives it a two and a half.
Well, that comes out to 75.
Seven and a half.
No, seven and a half, I think is a good rating for this at least.
I mean, it really grows on you.
Yeah, I agree.
Seven, seven and a half.
I'm good with that.
And I'm going to, I want to start paying attention to the, uh, the Texas Bourbons, to the Texas
Twangs.
Well, it is interesting because it's a different thing.
So I'm tasting it now and you got, there's all, there's some interesting notes in here.
You know, it's like every time I take a poll, there's something else.
Kevin wouldn't know cause he fucking slammed his, you know, I'm sorry.
I didn't think I'd drink it that fast.
Well, you know, we still have like, this is still ours.
Well, we try to make ours last.
Yeah.
I gotcha.
My first hundred episodes were fucking shit faced.
Yeah.
We were like refilling constantly.
We were just like, where are you?
Look, my glasses are filled enough.
My glasses are filled enough.
Those were better shows back then too.
Oh, much better shows.
Show us the outside.
There we go.
Mr. Producer found the 1845.
But if you're, if you're here locally, I highly recommend you go out and, uh, visit 1845.
Very nice people.
Uh, it's a great, great little tour.
Great tasting.
Great tasting room.
They sell wine too.
They do.
And I'm anxious to taste their oak wine.
I'm waiting for that because the un-oaked stuff, I'm not a fan of un-oaked wine.
This is very oaky.
I just got a poll from this right now.
It's got a huge oak taste.
I think that's, I think he's going to find a sweet spot here soon of how old he can,
he can make his stuff.
I would, I would venture if it's eight years in Kentucky, you've got to think five or six
years in Texas.
Nobody's going over five or six years.
Right.
No one is.
Yeah.
Well, he's, well, again, this was the first time I went out there.
He said he was going to, he was going to, that first barrel was going to go 10 years.
Yeah.
Why not?
Right.
That's what he said.
He goes, it could be trash.
Yeah.
Right.
Why not?
Yeah.
So, um, he's going to try it because it may be, no one's done it.
It may be fantastic.
It could be just garbage.
So, but you don't know until you try it.
Unfortunately, it takes a decade to figure it out.
Yeah.
It's exciting little, uh, little operation.
So he doesn't have any, um, like vodka or clear, clear something.
He decided to skip all that.
Yep.
He, he did his distilling ability to do it.
He has it all there.
Well, yeah, dismantling a lot of, a lot of the distiller started out, right?
You missed a lot.
Did they start out with vodka like Lockwood?
They have to because they, they got to make something float.
Right.
While they're waiting.
He's got the capital to, to, to bring it in, uh, in, in.
Plus he, he went and purchased, um, he went and purchased more distiller equipment, you
know, it's larger.
Yeah.
This is top notch stuff too.
This is copper, uh, brought in from Germany and, uh, it was in the, um, in the main.
Yeah.
It's got pot stills.
Yeah.
Yes.
I mean, custom made, custom made in Germany and a Hungarian team that puts it together.
Yeah.
It's a beautiful setup and, uh, they're going to, well, whatever.
It's a beautiful setup.
It's an excited farm and we're going to, we're going to keep hounding them.
We're, we're going to keep them out there and get their next test.
Was it the single barrel that just got released?
Yep.
Another one.
Yep.
That's a, yeah, we got to go get it.
I think they have a very bright future because everything they, everything they submit to
competitions ends up winning just about every time that the world spirit, if not every time,
I mean winning something, double gold.
It came in third place in bourbon of the year.
Third place.
Yeah.
Amazing.
That's impressive.
Double gold.
You guys know what double gold in San Francisco means?
No.
It's good.
No, no.
San Francisco spirits.
Um, they have like 30 judges.
It's all blind testing, blind taste testing.
If every judge gives out a gold, that's double gold.
Every damn.
So that's no slouch.
No, no.
So you can see double gold.
You know, we'll do that.
Our sorrel say double gold, but that means that every judge gave that a gold medal.
Holy cow.
I can't imagine starting up for the very first time, waiting four years, having no idea what
you're going to, you know, what you're going to get and then winning awards out of the
gate.
I mean, how lucky are they?
That's awesome.
So which one is that, that, that double gold scroll down a little bit.
Is that just the straight Texas, Texas straight?
I can't read that.
Texas straight.
It was like it said Texas straight on the bottle.
Just, just the blue.
You can see that right there.
Texas.
Yeah.
That's a Hunter proof, huh?
You guys don't like that one?
The poll is too low proof.
I'm becoming nauseated with his, if, if there's a drop of water put into it, he's, he disrespects
it.
Well, I'm not disrespecting it.
That's not the right word.
You blow it off.
Well, I'm just thinking, don't they have a, I mean, did that specific, uh, dumbed down
Hunter proof bottle with the water or was that a,
That's an outstanding one.
Double gold.
So by the way, they put your new standards.
You would never try that.
They do add water to take it from one 16, one 18 to a hundred, but they do it in the
barrel.
30, 30 judges gave it a goal.
No, they do it in the barrel.
No, they, not everybody does that.
He said they do it inside the barrel.
How do they do that inside the barrel?
Do what?
They add the water to the barrel.
Still Austin does that.
Yeah.
There's a name for it.
Stand-ups and any, but, uh, they, they proof it down while it's aging.
Yes.
Yeah.
So they're a little more respect, right?
Whatever.
I'll buy it.
Do they have any left?
Oh yeah.
That one.
Oh, they have a lot of the hundred proof of that specific, uh, if they have the double
gold, I'll make sure I'll get it.
Yes, they do.
I think what they don't have the single habit.
How did somebody bought that?
I've got it.
Yeah.
I've got the last, one of the last ones that had of, of one of the bottles.
But that's, but that's the standard.
That's the standard they have.
Remember they have four different lines and they have a hundred proof of each.
Then they have small batch.
Then they have single barrel.
It's the single barrels.
They don't have a lot of anyway.
Right.
All right.
Let's move on.
Let's talk about something fun and exciting.
It's like some what's coming up for Christmas.
Well, first of all, we have Christmas.
I mean, let's be excited about that.
20 days away.
I know.
So special plans, Kevin, any special plans for Christmas?
I hate Christmas.
Oh, well, working where I work, you know, we can't take any time off and it's just,
and it just ramps up.
Does it get to busy?
It's like Christmas.
Oh yeah.
Yeah.
Like that people do.
It's like, why didn't you plan like, right?
Right.
I would love to tell the customers that hire extra people or they just put more strength
on your staff.
We do hire more people, but they aren't trained up.
So you're slammed at Christmas.
Oh yeah.
You guys, when you guys start coming, you guys have been in there.
Oh yeah.
It's a train.
And they all come in looking for.
I'm going around Christmas.
I always go out of town.
Well, look at you.
It doesn't make me, it doesn't make me special.
It just makes me actually, I wish we, I wish we would stay home.
It's true.
It makes you normal.
Retail is a little different in the Christmas time.
And they all came in looking for blantons, don't they?
Oh my God.
You get a lot of people.
Hey, what's kind of, what's some of the best bourbon you get?
Right.
Exactly.
Well, that's the question, right?
I want something.
I got 75 bucks.
What's the best I can do with it?
Right.
So.
So you sell them back beat.
Nobody else is buying it.
Don't pay attention to the dust on the bottle.
Right.
Hey, how about this bottle of chicken cock?
I kind of walked up to this and I was like, really?
Then you bought two bottles.
So what are the lists on is the, what kind of gifts can the, can we receive?
I mean, I know what I want, but I mean, but really what, what gifts would we want?
What I think fathers, fathers are hard to, especially fathers in our age group, right?
Are hard to buy for our, our kids are always struggling.
Just think about it.
Let me just think what would be a good present?
I mean, I could, I could rattle off a few things.
Yeah.
Well, of course, but I'm talking about tangible things that you can receive as a gift.
You know, I would say, uh, I guess I got to think about that.
Pornhub subscription.
Yeah.
A hundred year, a hundred year subscription.
Something you can hand down to your kids.
You're pressed.
Austin, what do you think?
This has been used a lot.
You could, you could benefit from this hundred year subscription to Pornhub.
All right.
Um, I think it's for me, I mean, cause think about it.
We're at a point in our lives when we want something, we really want something.
We just go buy it.
Oh, so you want some crotchless chaps so you could wear them with your, no, I want something
that I would not buy for myself, but that's something that like, you know, really expensive,
usually expensive.
Yes.
That's what all my, all the things I want are expensive that I just wouldn't like what
I can't justify spending the money on type of thing.
I mean, I want a couple of, a couple years ago, big ass TVs, you know, shit like that,
you know, tools and stuff like that.
Yeah.
Okay.
You know, well years ago, my wife and I exchanged gifts.
It was the exact same box size.
It was that exact same thing.
It was an iPad, right?
So we bought each other iPads.
Did you give each other the box?
No.
So we give each other the box and it's the same box.
So you both wanted it to be a surprise for each other.
Right.
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
We had no idea and we exchanged gifts and it's the same size wrapped up box.
Same color.
Same color, same everything.
I bought her a rose, I think, and she got me the black.
There we go.
That's good.
Well, once you go black.
Oh, that's funny.
So.
I've not gone back.
Yeah.
I think we've gotten to the point where we just, you know, we ask each other, what do
you want?
Right.
You know, and then.
Don't buy me anything.
Right.
Don't buy me anything.
But, you know, but the boys have to buy you something, even though it's my money that
they're spending to buy me a gift.
Right.
You know what I mean?
But I mean, it's fine.
But yeah, we don't do the whole have no idea what you're buying me for Christmas thing
anymore.
I just thought about what I'd want.
I do.
I'm hardcore about that.
I hate that.
I wish we did.
I hate it when people figure out what I got them or they tell me what they got me.
I'm just like, I want a surprise.
I was like, I was like Christmas, when you're opening gifts, you're ruining the phone.
We like, oh, this is that.
You know, why do you even wrap it at that point?
Right.
That's where we are.
And my wife and at least one of my sons is hardcore.
They want to know what they're getting.
I'm just like, no, I'm not telling you.
It's a surprise.
Right.
It drives me nuts when they either know or they figure it out.
Yeah.
I get upset.
I get upset about it.
Right.
So you hate Christmas, too?
I do.
So Kevin hates Christmas.
You hate Christmas.
Well, I hate Christmas.
I hate Christmas time.
I know.
I hate Christmas.
I know.
I get excited.
I love the whole season.
I mean, I love it from Halloween night.
You know, last year you were like, fuck Christmas.
I was just thinking that.
He was like, you know what I decided?
Fuck it.
I was like, what are you talking about?
Yeah, he was like so into it and he was like, no, I'm over it.
Look, you got to give a little bit more context.
There was a little.
So I try and I'm not doing this anymore.
I try to buy the things that I think my kids want and they don't like any of it.
So I'm like, fuck it.
I'm not buying them anymore.
You spend like five thousand dollars, you know, a grand on each kid.
Yeah, I'm done.
I'm not doing that anymore.
I'm done.
You know what I'm doing?
They're getting cash and they can fucking go buy a bong.
I don't know what they do with it.
They shut up their ass as far as I'm concerned.
Yep.
I still want them to have fun.
And I'll get them some stuff, but I'm not getting them.
Usually I try to get them a nice big gift, you know, whatever it may be.
I don't know.
I'm not doing that anymore.
Their big gift will be a nice little cash.
Home Depot.
Well, that's the pressure, right?
Kind of is weighs down the pressure to buy the right gift.
Right. Yeah.
I don't like that either.
It's like it's stressful.
Yeah, right.
Right.
Kids are kind of ungrateful.
They really are.
I mean, all of them.
They're just kind of you get them something nice.
And it's just like you don't know if they really like it or not.
You know, and it's just like if they do like it, then they're not going to tell you.
And if they don't like it, they're going to tell you.
Well, my kids are working this scam right now.
It'll be like it'll be like September or October.
And they'll be like, Dad, you know, a group of the fraternities going to Mexico or they're doing this or doing that.
And they go, that could be my Christmas present.
And we're like, yeah, OK.
And they know full well Christmas rolls around.
They're going to get more and they're going to get more shit.
Right. Same type of thing.
Brody's doing that, too.
Oh, I want to go to Vegas.
You know, they're doing the Formula One and this big thing and all this kind of stuff.
And you know, what you need to do, it'll be my Christmas present.
Even if you did get him Christmas, Kevin, don't have anything under the tree and say, well, your gift Christmas was like that.
Suck it. Oh, no.
Really?
Christmas sucks, dad.
You guys.
Now, they don't get it.
I don't.
I wouldn't buy it from.
Oh, my scam.
The scam works.
They get it.
They get the trip.
They get the they get the thousand dollar scooter that they had to have.
And yeah, and they get the they get the Christmas.
Oh, scooter.
Well, Brody was really into scooters.
And so when I say a thousand dollars, it was bars, you know, hundred and fifty.
Was it electric?
No, no, no, no.
Bars, bars, 150.
And then I know.
Give a little background.
Brody is like a like, first of all, we're talking about these little scooters.
I don't know if the name brands of them are, but I'm talking about these scooters
where kids take to the park and they go down like skating bowl bowls and they'll go up.
They'll do a flip and twist and shit.
It's insane.
I mean, it's there.
They're the the.
I don't know the name of the brand, but their scooter, son, it's like Razor.
Yeah, like a razor.
Well, yeah.
And Brody's good.
He posted shit on Instagram.
I see his stuff populated.
I'm like, God damn. Of course, he's had like what?
Fifteen medical issues in the last two years.
He has broken one with one wrist twice.
The other one once had surgery, put a pin in the wrist.
And I was like, OK, we're not doing this anymore.
It's getting expensive.
Is he done with the scooter then?
No, no, no, he's not.
I mean, it used to be an everyday thing.
That was where his hangout was.
That was where his gang was.
You know what I mean?
His crowd, his group, his tribe, I should say.
His tribe. That's probably the best word for it.
His tribe.
They are. Their tribe. It's crazy.
I mean, but the tribe is 50 year old men with long hair and skateboards down to, you know, eight year olds with their mom.
I mean, all that's there. Just a broad spectrum of.
So we can hang out there.
Everything is.
To not look out of place.
A hundred percent. It's crazy.
A bunch of fucking Weeble wobbles rolling around on skateboards.
The hell, man.
It's crazy.
With a bourbon.
And some of these kids are really, really good.
I mean, Brody is, you know, average.
Brody's good.
I know. Brody's good.
He's better than average.
But dude, you should see what some of these guys can do, man.
He wanted us to come to a little competition, you know, type of thing.
We're like, OK, you know, local right there at the skate park.
And I was like, what? What?
I mean, they're like flipping and doing all sorts of crazy shit.
I don't know. It's impressive.
Anyway, so he's not. He's not.
He does it every once in a while.
It's kind of like a novelty thing now.
You know, he wants to kind of show off his friends kind of moved on.
Oh, yeah. And he's kind of moved on.
Maybe he's realized, yeah, my wrist hurts.
Yeah. Yeah. Well, I mean, right now they do car shows.
That's their thing. They go out and do they visit car shows or into cars.
Oh, got you. They're always working on their friends, his friends car.
So, Kevin, what would be a good gift for you?
Well, you know, a bottle of bourbon or, you know, nice, you know, a nice golf wedge.
I've been looking at wedges, but it's a problem.
Right. Because like you buy something for your son for a scooter.
You have no idea. Right. Right.
But to get him for a scooter, because it's like he knows exactly what he wants.
I know what I want. I want to go fast drives.
I golf. I know what I want for a wedge.
My wife has no idea. She would have no idea what kind of wedge she doesn't want.
What balls I play. Right. So she'd see that's what's boring.
She has to give you a four hundred dollar gift gift card to PGA Superstore.
Yeah. Right. I would need to take that.
I would love for a carpenter.
Well, I mean, but that's kind of waters down the the fun of gift giving.
But what are you going to do? Right. Right.
For something that specific and personal, you know, maybe you do need to provide some input.
Like if my wife wants a specific article of clothing. Right. Right.
Like if I go out there and buy her clothes to hit or miss. Right.
If it fits, if she likes it, whatnot. Right.
And but if she goes shopping with me, then it drives me nuts because I was like,
oh, now I know you what the hell you're getting. Right. Right.
So it's it's a there's ways to be clever. Right.
I mean, like one time for a Christmas gift we bought for my in-laws,
we bought them a cruise because they had done something great.
That's a great gift. They did something crazy nice for us.
I can't even remember what it was. But we like, you know, the gift was like, you know,
you know what I mean? It was like a box with like tickets in it.
And, you know, like, you know, so so he that's a great gift, though.
I mean, for your if your parents or something, that's that's really good. Right. Right.
And for you, I mean, she could like, you know, I'm just giving ideas to the wives out there.
But you could make like a she could make like a thing that looks like a club.
And in the club, it has a gift card. Right. You know what I mean?
I mean, there's a lot of bidet. Yeah, there's ways you can make it creative.
A bidet. Yeah. What is what is the fascination with bidets again?
I think I'm Mr. Jody. You guys know, I know.
Big on the day. I listen to your show and I cannot believe you guys don't have a bidet.
There are two things in my life I wish I had a long time ago.
You're being serious right now. Yes. C-PAP and a bidet.
And if you don't have both like the quality of life, yes, both at the same time.
You could. Well, you could. But so it's so yeah.
So there's a bidet. I don't know why you guys are so resistant to bidets.
I heard that show is like, what is what are you against?
I don't know if it's resistance. It's just a matter of it's just which bathroom do I put it in?
I think it's unnecessary. I like you put it unnecessary.
It is completely necessary. It is.
If you pick up a piece of shit with your hand, would you wipe it off with a dry paper towel or would you put water on it and wipe it off?
Hmm. I use one of those doggy bags.
No, you had to pick up a piece of shit on the ground with your bare hand. We don't know what would you do?
We get it. We get it. I'm on board with the bidet. I'm not against it.
The thing is, I got to get what I like to purge downstairs bathroom and I don't think a bidet would be appropriate in our.
What is it? The downstairs bedroom? Yes.
You have your own bathroom. You have your own. I do.
But always go. That's where it goes.
So Jody was saying, OK, so I guess it's a Costco.
It goes on the on the on the buy one that bills in.
You could just add it to your toilet. You can buy one built into your toilet seat.
They got they got all sorts of things. Yeah, Costco. They're like two, three hundred bucks.
You could buy one for 60 bucks. Yeah. You just put underneath your toilet seat and it's how you connected.
OK, how does it connect to this? Just connects to the water line.
Yeah, just connect in between the water line and you control the spray strength and it's so you swear by I swear by it.
You have to angle it so it hits your crack. It's automatically angled.
I don't want it like a scam.
What Jody says. I don't want it clashing the bottom of my strodum.
Jody says you have to you have to jockey for position.
You have to jockey for position. So you may have to like you'll figure out where the water goes.
You got to twerk on the toilet. Yeah, you got to get that sweet spot.
You twerk on your ass. It's not that difficult.
It's not that difficult. It's not that difficult.
It's not getting every part of the anus, man.
I just want you guys to try it. Once you try it, it's like, wow, what have I been missing all my life?
Right. The anus dance. It's the anus dance.
I'll tell you, the perfect gift in addition to the bidet would be is the ability to to blast off the shrapnel on the backside of the toilet.
So like a reverse bidet. That would be an auto clean.
Yeah, I would like it. I wish they'd made like a little spray when you're done with it.
You just got to ch ch ch. It like dissolves it.
It will dissolve it because there's sometimes it's like you have like fecal shrapnel.
Oh, it's like sometimes. Well, not me necessarily, but I go to the bathroom really. Not you.
It's not me. You're right. You're right.
I'd say there's terror.
And his daughters. Someone will go to the bathroom.
Who blasted the bathroom?
Someone will destroy it and there'll be shrapnel all over the backside.
You're right. Seriously. And I'll I'll I'll make an effort and I will paint it.
You'll chisel it?
Because it's not mine. You get in there and you try to pee on it.
And also when you go in there and you try to pee, you're doing like sat there with a hammer.
I would drink like a lot of bottles of water and I go in there and I try pissing it.
Right, right, right. You get that stream. That's not that's actually a great idea.
I piss it off. No, no. Just have a device that really shoots down on it.
Yeah. Well, I mean, just kind of like a little I mean, I don't know.
I'm thinking maybe don't be surprised. Sean's quite the inventor.
What is your your Antifa weapon built on the cars? Or was that yours?
No, that was his. Yeah. Mine's the mine's the bike of the cycle power plant.
Yeah, the cycling power plant and the methane and the and the cowfart collector.
Cow fart collector for methane gas. I haven't really come up with anything.
I guess I'm not clever like that. I haven't come up with you.
You're more of the manager. You've completely debunked all of our ideas.
I'm kind of shit all over your horrible ideas.
We would need at least approximately 800 cows with enough methane gas to be able to power up this house.
Speaking of innovative things, somebody I think it was you sent a video of how the pyramids were made.
Oh, I've said a couple of years. It was.
And I started watching it and I was thinking, oh, yeah, you can really do that.
But then didn't a spaceship come down and laser laser?
Oh, laser. It's the caps on there. Yes.
I was thinking, OK, they're deal breaker.
They're making forms and they're filling it up.
And all of a sudden I was like, OK, well, how are they doing this?
And also in this space, this spaceship comes down when the laser goes to you.
And it was like, OK, here we go.
And I thought that was you because you're like aliens built the pyramids.
Well, first of all, I never said that. I didn't say that at all.
We don't know how the pyramids were built. And the premise of said multiple how to.
You have. I think we don't know how the and they're proven.
I mean, you can see the video. They're making it.
You're like, that makes sense. That's not that didn't happen.
Well, we don't know. Well, you're definitive to say you don't know.
You weren't there. You weren't there.
Well, where are you going to get that much earth to pack around that damn thing?
There's sand. Infinite amount of sand.
They live right next to the Delta. Yeah.
Are you kidding me? No, they would.
The Delta Nile. So you're saying that they are going to literally just they they they do a row
and then they're going to backfill it. Right.
And then roll another row and then backfill it.
Maybe what? Fifteen, eighteen hundred slaves.
Did they take hundreds of years to build as well?
We don't know that. Oh, yeah. No, I think 30 years. Oh, no. It's like a day.
Wow. They can't even build a house.
They had some super they had some super large giants coming down.
The spaceship came down, showed up with this Lego set that was made out of stone.
They were just like, dude, just make your own fucking pyramid.
Come on. I mean, I think the archaeologists have said it took 30 years.
When they're a young man, Pharaoh and they're like, OK, time to start building my my tomb now. Right.
There's nobody buried in them. Well, first of all, the pyramids.
Yeah, there are. Well, no, they said there's they're they did not say there was people buried in those pyramids.
The pyramids. OK. The pyramids.
So what they did. Well, there's actually there's a there's a lot of unknowns.
There are so many unknowns down there.
What they're trying to they're trying to implicate that the pyramids were a source of power.
They were also coated in a white limestone that was millions of slaves, spermming all over.
Oh, just encrusted, just encrusted.
I've already done it five times today. I can't do another one.
Shut up and eat more grapes. Grapes.
Oh, great. I don't know.
Whatever you heard it first here, guys.
If you have E.D., grapes is the answer.
You heard it first from Sean.
Well, I stand behind it.
All right. No more Pharaoh.
Oh, I do like the Christmas.
Does anybody have any Christmas parties?
I don't because I don't have an office local anymore.
I have I have a holiday lunch on Friday.
That's about it. I got one back to back Saturday.
Oh, we were invited to a Christmas party, actually.
I just forgot about that.
How about that?
This is Brody's best friend's parents.
I thought you meant dudes like us.
No, no.
Oh, well, we can do dudes like us.
What are we going to do?
Do like I got a gift for you to really.
Is it an eight watt laser?
It's a lot of no shit.
Oh, yeah.
Instead of four hours, it's like three hours and 20 minutes.
Right. Right.
That's a bubble thing.
Now, I've got I've got I've got my office party Saturday.
And it's kind of quick, guys.
If we're going to do something, it's got to be not next.
Not this weekend.
But I got after I've actually got invited to another party that
that I wasn't originally.
What am I trying to say?
So there are in my job that I have there.
There are people that are executives.
You know, I was I'm going to an executive party.
So it's like I got to dress real nice.
I made a point by saying, Sean, you have to dress nice.
It's like so Sean, no wife beaters and don't act like a seven year old.
Oh, that's why it's stumbling around drunk, making a huge.
Are you going to bring the dude to this magnet?
I guess.
No, you are not.
Do not speak.
Are you kidding me?
Talk about talk about career suicide.
Listen to my podcast.
I'm not going to tell anybody.
I'm just going to like, look right there.
Like, oh, I'm going to do it.
I'll tell you more about the party coming up.
But I'm a little excited about it, but I'm also kind of bummed out
because I got to go buy some new clothes.
You know, the pants fit a little bit.
Well, your leader hose.
You said those fit perfect.
Yeah, you said it was just comfortably show up at that party with leader.
Cause leader, cause and does you said dress up right now?
Yeah.
And that's your is that your your your ancestral cultural garb?
That's German.
Right.
Oh, you're Irish.
Yeah.
You're more German.
I am very German.
Yeah.
My mom's side is from from German.
We're all sorts of German.
Yeah.
I'm like, well, whatever.
We're all European mutts.
Yeah.
Euro mutts.
Where are you from?
Where are you, Kevin?
Yeah.
One hundred percent Japanese.
One hundred percent.
Seriously.
Oh, yeah.
Like your mother and father.
My grandparents.
Yeah.
That's what that means.
They came from Japan.
So tell me.
Yeah.
Tell me about your family.
Like my grandparents came from Japan.
That was back in the turn of the turn of the nineteen hundreds.
Right.
Nineteens.
You have to clarify the 20th century.
Yeah.
Where in third generation?
That's it's near Osaka.
A place called Wakayama.
Now, why did they immigrate?
Because back then in Japan, if you weren't the first born son, you didn't get anything.
Right.
So the first born son got willed everything.
Right.
He got he got to inherit everything.
Sure.
So anyone else had to make it on their own.
A lot of that's what caused a lot of that immigration.
And so your grandfather was second born.
Whatever.
Not first born.
That's right.
Right.
I'm assuming.
Yeah.
You just got thrown in a well.
If you're born female.
Yeah.
And then a lot of those mail order bride stuff going on.
So.
Oh, shit.
And so what did your grandfather do when he came over?
Like he had like a boarding house for other Japanese immigrants.
Really?
Yeah.
Was he what city?
Like a brothel?
They were in central California.
The farm belt, the farming area.
So.
So farming migrants.
Basically.
Yeah.
What year is this?
The first one.
So you were the first one out here?
Yeah.
Just turned a century.
Yeah.
That's fascinating.
That is.
And so your family.
Are you the only one here in Dallas or did they move to Dallas at some point?
No, no.
They.
You know.
So my, you know, my parents made it to.
They met in central California.
They met in Southern California.
But I just moved out here.
You know, just.
You were the first one out here.
I was.
It's amazing.
And we're just making it.
We're making it.
You're dragging the rest of them out here.
Do you have any siblings?
Yeah, they're all in California.
So you're still the only one here.
Yes.
Well, they give you grief.
You're a Texas.
Are they like, are they bleeding liberal Democrats out in California?
Yeah.
Just because you're from California doesn't mean that.
I mean.
No, no.
Orange County.
So Orange County, California is pretty hardcore.
Oh, yeah.
Right.
Oh, yeah.
But.
Do they take a shit in San Francisco?
I don't know.
Sidewalks.
They encourage that, don't they?
Yes, that's true.
My wife, she worked out there in San Francisco.
She she was doing like commuting and back then that was like 10, 15 years ago.
She said she was bad back then.
Oh, is that back?
Now it's.
Yeah.
So it's really out of control.
It's out of control.
Right now it's out of control.
We read that.
But I take it with a grain of salt because coming from like a leaning, right leaning
newspaper that wants it to look bad.
Do they have an app?
But apparently it's not bad.
No, it's not.
I mean, it is bad.
It is bad.
It's bad.
The biggest one is the food drop things.
I saw that.
I mean, someone's walking around going.
Yep.
A little GPS.
That's all climate driven, too, right?
Because it's you know, you could you could sleep outside, you know, all year round in
California.
Yeah.
And where you're going to poop.
Right.
Right there on the sidewalk.
Yeah, they.
Yeah.
That's.
Yeah.
That's the thing with California is the weather that's what attracts you.
You're right.
Yeah.
the summertime I'm just like what the hell that would suck.
Even the winter yeah.
Where do they go?
They go to shelters I guess.
Hold on Kevin so your parents came here in the 1900s.
So your grandparents.
Your grandparents they were on the east coast.
No no west coast.
They went to California and then they gave birth to your parents.
Your mom or dad.
Yeah both.
I mean.
They kept the love in the family?
What are you talking about?
No no.
Both as far as I know.
Are you saying your mom and dad are brother and sister?
All my grandparents both grandparents came to California.
Oh dude that's super cool.
Yeah well then they all got locked up in Wolver 2.
You grew up in California.
I was going to ask that.
Intern?
The intern?
Pretty much every single relative of mine was yeah at that age was interned.
How long did that last?
Four years.
Five.
Unbelievable.
You know that's a part of history.
That's unbelievable.
That's a part of history that's not talked about.
Never talked about.
Were they treated like.
It is not.
Were they treated poorly?
Well yeah I mean you're locked up in a well you're basically surrounded by barbed wire
machine guns.
Big barracks right.
And you're in barracks.
Yeah but they literally were abused.
Imprisoned.
You were imprisoned.
They were not abused no no.
They weren't concentration camps.
They had schools no they were not.
They were allowed to do whatever they wanted inside the camp.
You know they had schools and you know did whatever.
Played basketball.
Played they had lots of sports.
They did teach that in school.
I learned that in school.
Yeah they're teaching it more though.
Well yeah that's what I mean you don't hear about that much and.
It's a shame.
Yeah yeah.
And you know the reason for that happening is coming up in two days.
December 7th right Pearl Harbor.
It was an over yeah it was an overreaction.
Well exactly right right and when you talk about that you know like in Hawaii no one
was locked up right.
In Hawaii nobody was interned.
Really.
Where it happened right.
That's where you should have run it if anyway.
They gave they gave inside information about when they this and when they.
Yeah I mean there's actual.
If they did if they did if they did.
But they couldn't do in Hawaii because Hawaii there's such a high concentration of Japanese
Americans there.
They couldn't who were entrenched in the economy they couldn't do it.
But here in California they want to take all or they take all the everyone's land right.
So a lot of the Japanese Americans had land.
Oh shit so they lost their land.
They had to start a lot of them had to start over a lot of them had.
This is pissing me off.
That's crazy.
So we got we got twenty thousand dollars.
Six years later.
No six.
You got reparations.
In the 80s with every living person got twenty thousand dollars.
All right well that made up for that.
I mean I'm sorry I know you had a twenty million dollar piece of land.
Twenty is twenty thousand is.
I think that's different.
I think that's.
Four years how much did you sue them for how much did you sue the government for.
I think that's different because those folks were still living in the 80s.
So what the folks want for slavery reparations.
That's the totally different.
So I think so.
It's totally different.
Because that was what I get it but it's totally different.
It's completely different.
All those folks.
You were directly affected.
Right.
That's everyone living.
That's what I mean they're still alive.
Right.
None of those folks are alive anymore.
Right.
So you your parents were locked were confined.
My in yeah my my mom was very young but yeah she was.
And so you were eventually they got out and then you were you came about with your brothers
and sisters all of California.
What city ish.
Huntington Beach.
Do you surf.
No I didn't go in the water.
Water is dangerous.
Was it because of Jaws.
Did you watch the.
I watched Jaws.
I watched the 1975 Jaws.
They have the great white shark.
Hear that lady just just got killed in the Bahamas.
Did you read that.
No.
She got bit by a shark.
She was a newlywed.
She got eaten.
Bitten.
Well she was a big bite.
Big old chunk let out.
Big bite off a Big Mac.
Like her thorax region.
They didn't show a picture of it but they said that her the bite made her die.
Right.
Yeah yeah.
Yeah.
So the story is that she was a newlywed.
Oh man that's unbelievable.
Yeah.
The Bahamas.
Well look at the bull sharks down there.
Yeah.
That's the bull shark.
Actually that's where most of the shark.
Yeah it might not have been a great white.
So you did all your schooling in California and then you decided you wanted to come to
